We'll miss Kamala Harris. She was fun 36 00:01:54,680 --> 00:01:58,680 Speaker 1: to laugh at. Remember that she claimed that she was 37 00:01:58,760 --> 00:02:01,840 Speaker 1: raised cell bread in Kwansa and she was gonna bring 38 00:02:01,920 --> 00:02:06,240 Speaker 1: Kwansa back. Nobody really ever believed in Quansa. It was 39 00:02:06,240 --> 00:02:12,160 Speaker 1: a made up holiday. It was silly and ridiculous. By 40 00:02:12,160 --> 00:02:16,160 Speaker 1: the way, Marcus Garvey, the guy that made it up, 41 00:02:17,600 --> 00:02:20,560 Speaker 1: ended up being convicted of was it raped and burned 42 00:02:20,560 --> 00:02:22,960 Speaker 1: a woman? Remember, might as well have been in a 43 00:02:22,960 --> 00:02:30,280 Speaker 1: Diddy concert, Speaking of which, Tony Busby has apparently filed 44 00:02:30,320 --> 00:02:36,040 Speaker 1: a lawsuit against Jay Z, whose real last name is Carter, 45 00:02:37,960 --> 00:02:43,760 Speaker 1: for a case allegedly stemming from the year two thousand 46 00:02:44,360 --> 00:02:48,200 Speaker 1: when a thirteen year old young lady says she was 47 00:02:48,360 --> 00:02:55,960 Speaker 1: raped by Diddy and jay Z after MTV Awards or 48 00:02:56,000 --> 00:03:01,920 Speaker 1: some awards show in the bathroom and drugged and raped. 49 00:03:02,760 --> 00:03:09,000 Speaker 1: It's pretty brutal story. And so jay Z has come 50 00:03:09,040 --> 00:03:13,320 Speaker 1: out with this statement to say that let me see 51 00:03:13,320 --> 00:03:16,120 Speaker 1: if I can find it that he knows what kind 52 00:03:16,200 --> 00:03:20,560 Speaker 1: of person Tony Busby is and he's not going to 53 00:03:20,600 --> 00:03:30,000 Speaker 1: be bullied. He knows the type. Well maybe let's see. Oh, 54 00:03:30,000 --> 00:03:32,280 Speaker 1: here we go, all right, let me read you this letter, 55 00:03:32,280 --> 00:03:35,000 Speaker 1: because there's something about it is kind of funny. My 56 00:03:35,200 --> 00:03:41,720 Speaker 1: lawyer received a blackmail attempt blackmail called a demand letter 57 00:03:42,120 --> 00:03:46,840 Speaker 1: from a quote unquote lawyer named Tony Busby. I'm not 58 00:03:46,880 --> 00:03:50,600 Speaker 1: sure you need the quote there, mister Carter. He is 59 00:03:51,120 --> 00:03:54,040 Speaker 1: a lawyer, he has a law degree, and he passed 60 00:03:54,040 --> 00:03:57,760 Speaker 1: the bar, and he's in good standing. What he had 61 00:03:57,840 --> 00:04:00,880 Speaker 1: calculated was the nature of these allegations and the public 62 00:04:00,920 --> 00:04:05,160 Speaker 1: scrutiny would make me want to settle. Yeah, yeah, that's 63 00:04:05,200 --> 00:04:10,640 Speaker 1: the way these work. No, sir, It had the opposite effect. 64 00:04:11,720 --> 00:04:14,400 Speaker 1: It made me want to expose you for the fraud 65 00:04:14,480 --> 00:04:18,480 Speaker 1: you are in a very public fashion. So no, I 66 00:04:18,520 --> 00:04:22,960 Speaker 1: will not give you one red penny. Now, mind you, 67 00:04:23,920 --> 00:04:26,520 Speaker 1: this is a guy who shot his brother in his 68 00:04:26,560 --> 00:04:29,839 Speaker 1: own house. This is a guy who had a shooting 69 00:04:29,960 --> 00:04:34,280 Speaker 1: in a club. I mean, the facts in evidence against 70 00:04:34,400 --> 00:04:41,599 Speaker 1: jay Z would suggest don't plush your pearls too tightly there, brother, 71 00:04:42,480 --> 00:04:46,600 Speaker 1: These allegations are so heinous in nature that I implore 72 00:04:46,760 --> 00:04:51,600 Speaker 1: you to file a criminal complaint. This reminds me of 73 00:04:51,680 --> 00:04:54,839 Speaker 1: Gary Hart who was running for president in nineteen eighty eight, 74 00:04:56,880 --> 00:05:03,880 Speaker 1: and they said, hey, U, there's a rumor you got 75 00:05:03,880 --> 00:05:08,800 Speaker 1: a hot, little blonde mistress that you've been catting around with, 76 00:05:08,960 --> 00:05:12,720 Speaker 1: and you're married, and your wife is back in Denver, Colorado. 77 00:05:14,240 --> 00:05:18,120 Speaker 1: And he said, I'm tired of this nonsense. If you 78 00:05:18,320 --> 00:05:23,080 Speaker 1: think I'm doing that, then you just follow me. And 79 00:05:23,120 --> 00:05:28,840 Speaker 1: the Miami Herald did and aboard the monkey business his boat. 80 00:05:29,160 --> 00:05:34,120 Speaker 1: There he was with his mistress, and it ruined his 81 00:05:34,160 --> 00:05:41,159 Speaker 1: political career. Sometimes the pure hootspot of saying, if you 82 00:05:41,240 --> 00:05:43,840 Speaker 1: think I've done something, you just follow and I'll show you. 83 00:05:44,640 --> 00:05:47,200 Speaker 1: So he says, these allegations are so heinous in nature 84 00:05:47,200 --> 00:05:50,159 Speaker 1: that I implore you to file a criminal complaint, not 85 00:05:50,240 --> 00:05:54,880 Speaker 1: a civil one. Well, careful what you wish for there, 86 00:05:56,000 --> 00:05:59,560 Speaker 1: And if you're thinking statute of limitations, the statute of 87 00:05:59,640 --> 00:06:04,479 Speaker 1: limits don't toll the twenty years on a sex crime. 88 00:06:04,520 --> 00:06:06,200 Speaker 1: I don't know what the state of New York is, 89 00:06:06,240 --> 00:06:11,919 Speaker 1: but I suspect they don't begin to toll until the 90 00:06:12,120 --> 00:06:17,560 Speaker 1: alleged victim is eighteen. So if an alleged victim is 91 00:06:17,600 --> 00:06:21,800 Speaker 1: thirteen at the time, you don't begin tolling the statute 92 00:06:21,800 --> 00:06:24,320 Speaker 1: of limitations the period within which a case must be 93 00:06:24,360 --> 00:06:27,960 Speaker 1: brought until that person reaches the age of majority, which 94 00:06:28,000 --> 00:06:32,720 Speaker 1: is eighteen, and then add twenty, which would mean that 95 00:06:32,720 --> 00:06:35,320 Speaker 1: there would still be the basis of a criminal case 96 00:06:36,320 --> 00:06:39,919 Speaker 1: if that young lady wants to file it. Whomever would 97 00:06:39,920 --> 00:06:42,719 Speaker 1: commit such a crime against a minor should be locked away. 98 00:06:42,720 --> 00:06:46,599 Speaker 1: Would you not agree? Yes? And I hope those words 99 00:06:46,640 --> 00:06:50,280 Speaker 1: come back to you. These alleged victims would deserve real 100 00:06:50,440 --> 00:06:53,680 Speaker 1: justice if that were the case. Oh, I think thou 101 00:06:53,720 --> 00:06:57,680 Speaker 1: dost protest too much. The lawyer who have done a 102 00:06:57,720 --> 00:07:00,320 Speaker 1: bit of research on seems to have I have a 103 00:07:00,360 --> 00:07:05,000 Speaker 1: pattern of these type of theatrics. I have no idea 104 00:07:05,040 --> 00:07:08,360 Speaker 1: how you have come to such a deplorable human, To 105 00:07:09,440 --> 00:07:13,320 Speaker 1: be such a deplorable human, mister Busby. But I promise 106 00:07:13,360 --> 00:07:17,880 Speaker 1: you I have seen your kind many times over. I'm 107 00:07:17,920 --> 00:07:22,160 Speaker 1: more than prepared to deal with your type. You claim 108 00:07:22,240 --> 00:07:25,480 Speaker 1: to be a marine. Marines are known for their valor. 109 00:07:25,600 --> 00:07:30,840 Speaker 1: You have neither honor nor dignity. My only heartbreak is 110 00:07:30,880 --> 00:07:33,080 Speaker 1: from my family, and he goes through the well. I'll 111 00:07:33,080 --> 00:07:36,000 Speaker 1: have to tell my kids about this now. My heart 112 00:07:36,080 --> 00:07:38,640 Speaker 1: and support goes out to true victims in the world 113 00:07:39,520 --> 00:07:43,240 Speaker 1: who have to watch how their life story is dressed 114 00:07:43,280 --> 00:07:48,320 Speaker 1: in costume for profitability by this ambulance chaser in a 115 00:07:48,400 --> 00:07:50,800 Speaker 1: cheap suit. And see that's where I draw a line. 116 00:07:51,160 --> 00:07:53,680 Speaker 1: Busby does not wear cheap suits. I happen to know 117 00:07:53,680 --> 00:07:56,960 Speaker 1: who his tailor is. One of them. I believe Impenner 118 00:07:57,480 --> 00:08:00,640 Speaker 1: does his suits, and those are Nachi. You can call 119 00:08:00,720 --> 00:08:04,120 Speaker 1: Tony Bussby many many things. You are free to do so, 120 00:08:05,080 --> 00:08:09,080 Speaker 1: and that's a question of a subjective judgment call. But 121 00:08:09,200 --> 00:08:13,320 Speaker 1: his suits are not cheap. I assure you you have 122 00:08:13,440 --> 00:08:17,320 Speaker 1: made a terrible error in judgment thinking that all celebrities 123 00:08:17,360 --> 00:08:20,680 Speaker 1: are the same. I'm not from your world. I'm a 124 00:08:20,720 --> 00:08:23,360 Speaker 1: young man who made it out of the project of Brooklyn. 125 00:08:23,920 --> 00:08:27,040 Speaker 1: We don't play these type of games. We have very 126 00:08:27,040 --> 00:08:31,720 Speaker 1: strict codes and honor. We protect children. You seem to 127 00:08:31,760 --> 00:08:36,800 Speaker 1: exploit people for personal game, owning your network of conspiracy theorists. 128 00:08:36,800 --> 00:08:42,760 Speaker 1: Fake physics will believe, fake physics, will believe the idiotic 129 00:08:42,800 --> 00:08:45,880 Speaker 1: claims you have, Levy, I look forward to showing you 130 00:08:46,000 --> 00:08:50,280 Speaker 1: just how different I am. There are rumors that the 131 00:08:50,320 --> 00:08:56,079 Speaker 1: p Diddy party disclosures will bring down some very prominent politicians, 132 00:08:56,280 --> 00:09:01,320 Speaker 1: media and celebrities, and I'm here for it. Michael Arry Show. 133 00:09:07,960 --> 00:09:11,760 Speaker 3: Extreame of bets in lives that John never. 134 00:09:13,880 --> 00:09:15,320 Speaker 1: Stops in the States. 135 00:09:16,320 --> 00:09:20,880 Speaker 3: In my very gray I made. 136 00:09:22,320 --> 00:09:27,000 Speaker 1: I don't have any affinity, loyalty, whatever the term might 137 00:09:27,080 --> 00:09:32,440 Speaker 1: be for the brat Pack of the eighties in the 138 00:09:32,520 --> 00:09:35,000 Speaker 1: sense that I would watch a movie because there's a 139 00:09:35,040 --> 00:09:40,160 Speaker 1: there's a documentary about them that Andrew McCarthy is Andrew McCarthy's, 140 00:09:40,160 --> 00:09:46,280 Speaker 1: as say, made and it was him reconnecting with all 141 00:09:46,320 --> 00:09:48,679 Speaker 1: of them and how each one of them kind of 142 00:09:49,840 --> 00:09:52,720 Speaker 1: dealt with the term brat pack and whether they liked 143 00:09:52,720 --> 00:09:56,240 Speaker 1: it or whether they didn't, and kind of coming to 144 00:09:56,240 --> 00:09:59,599 Speaker 1: grips with, you know, forty years later, what's become of 145 00:09:59,640 --> 00:10:03,240 Speaker 1: their lives. And I think Andrew McCarthy was supposed to 146 00:10:03,280 --> 00:10:05,720 Speaker 1: be kind of a love interest leading man, and I 147 00:10:05,720 --> 00:10:09,160 Speaker 1: think he was expecting more of a Brad Pitt career 148 00:10:09,200 --> 00:10:11,240 Speaker 1: and it didn't quite work out for him that way, 149 00:10:11,280 --> 00:10:13,880 Speaker 1: and this is his sort of therapy to go through this. 150 00:10:15,679 --> 00:10:21,240 Speaker 1: But there was a moment in Michael Barry world where 151 00:10:21,880 --> 00:10:28,680 Speaker 1: my heroes as a kid were Roberty Lee Davy Crockett. 152 00:10:29,440 --> 00:10:32,720 Speaker 1: I often say to people over the years when people 153 00:10:32,720 --> 00:10:36,959 Speaker 1: would say, you know your candidate's going to lose. Your 154 00:10:36,960 --> 00:10:39,080 Speaker 1: candidate's going to lose. My candid you should stop, you 155 00:10:39,080 --> 00:10:42,360 Speaker 1: should quit. Your canon's going to lose. Say you have 156 00:10:42,400 --> 00:10:48,960 Speaker 1: to understand. The three male figures that I most admire 157 00:10:49,040 --> 00:10:55,040 Speaker 1: and respect are my personal savior, Jesus Christ, Davy Crockett, 158 00:10:56,040 --> 00:11:01,760 Speaker 1: and Roberty Lee. Now Christ is risen and that's the resurrection. 159 00:11:03,000 --> 00:11:08,520 Speaker 1: But for the other two, do you understand that being 160 00:11:08,640 --> 00:11:16,280 Speaker 1: defeated in defense in pursuit of high principle is a 161 00:11:16,400 --> 00:11:22,679 Speaker 1: much greater glory to me than winning in a dirty fashion. 162 00:11:23,200 --> 00:11:26,880 Speaker 1: You understand that? Right? Once you understand that about me, 163 00:11:27,000 --> 00:11:35,360 Speaker 1: everything begins to make sense. I don't mind losing if 164 00:11:35,400 --> 00:11:40,120 Speaker 1: I'm doing it for principle, And if you're a person 165 00:11:41,000 --> 00:11:44,120 Speaker 1: like Harry Reid who lied about Mitt Romney in twenty 166 00:11:44,160 --> 00:11:48,680 Speaker 1: twelve and the irs to get Barack Obama elected. And 167 00:11:48,720 --> 00:11:50,400 Speaker 1: then later they said, hey, what do you have to 168 00:11:50,400 --> 00:11:51,920 Speaker 1: say about the fact that you lied? And he said, hey, 169 00:11:51,960 --> 00:11:58,480 Speaker 1: Obama won, didn't he. To me, that's demonic. So that 170 00:11:58,640 --> 00:12:01,599 Speaker 1: when occasionally I do win and you do it the 171 00:12:01,679 --> 00:12:06,920 Speaker 1: right way, that's the greatest glory because you didn't have 172 00:12:06,960 --> 00:12:12,600 Speaker 1: to compromise you who you are. But outside of those 173 00:12:12,880 --> 00:12:16,720 Speaker 1: in the eighties, at that moment in the world of 174 00:12:16,760 --> 00:12:19,760 Speaker 1: what was cool, Judd Nelson was as cool as it got. 175 00:12:20,640 --> 00:12:23,680 Speaker 1: I mean, he could do no wrong, even with that goofy, 176 00:12:24,160 --> 00:12:27,760 Speaker 1: you know, with the gloves with the fingers cut out, 177 00:12:28,920 --> 00:12:33,240 Speaker 1: Emilio Astavez ah as cool as it got. The outsiders, 178 00:12:33,920 --> 00:12:36,600 Speaker 1: oh Man, young Guns, which I still maintain is better 179 00:12:36,600 --> 00:12:40,640 Speaker 1: than Tombstone. That was where it was at. Man. I 180 00:12:40,720 --> 00:12:43,959 Speaker 1: never got into Tom Cruise. I mean, even before we 181 00:12:44,040 --> 00:12:46,840 Speaker 1: knew he was gay. I just always kind of thought 182 00:12:46,840 --> 00:12:54,120 Speaker 1: Tom Cruise was weird. He I mean, I didn't think 183 00:12:54,160 --> 00:12:57,320 Speaker 1: Goose was the greatest, but when they went into that 184 00:12:57,360 --> 00:13:00,760 Speaker 1: whole thing, I mean, Goose was always to me. Val 185 00:13:00,840 --> 00:13:03,320 Speaker 1: Kilmer was always way cooler than any of the rest 186 00:13:03,360 --> 00:13:11,360 Speaker 1: of them. But for me in those days, that group 187 00:13:11,400 --> 00:13:16,520 Speaker 1: of guys, yeah, absolutely, absolutely cool. We're talking about getting 188 00:13:16,600 --> 00:13:21,160 Speaker 1: songs wrong. Gene writes, many years ago, my sister asked 189 00:13:21,200 --> 00:13:24,600 Speaker 1: if I liked the new song hell Fire Up by 190 00:13:24,640 --> 00:13:28,360 Speaker 1: the Oak Ridge Boys. I said, oh, I haven't heard it. 191 00:13:29,160 --> 00:13:31,080 Speaker 1: She said, yeah, you have. It's on the radio all 192 00:13:31,160 --> 00:13:34,720 Speaker 1: the time, and then she started to sing the chorus 193 00:13:36,160 --> 00:13:39,920 Speaker 1: hell Fire Up. My heart's on fire for hell Fire up. 194 00:13:40,800 --> 00:13:47,280 Speaker 1: At that point I somewhat recognized it as Elvira. By 195 00:13:47,320 --> 00:13:54,760 Speaker 1: the way, ramon this lady Betsy Proctor at the limited edition. 196 00:13:55,960 --> 00:14:00,800 Speaker 1: So the story goes, she's been organizing the Katie Market 197 00:14:00,840 --> 00:14:04,520 Speaker 1: Days for some time to get people to come into 198 00:14:05,040 --> 00:14:08,520 Speaker 1: Katie on one Saturday a month, and now they do 199 00:14:08,559 --> 00:14:11,400 Speaker 1: the big Christmas thing, and the City of Katie is 200 00:14:11,440 --> 00:14:14,440 Speaker 1: trying to railroad her out of it. I want to 201 00:14:14,440 --> 00:14:18,360 Speaker 1: get her on the air, and if her story is correct, 202 00:14:19,080 --> 00:14:21,800 Speaker 1: I want to call so much hell for the City 203 00:14:21,800 --> 00:14:27,680 Speaker 1: of Katie that not only do they back off and 204 00:14:27,760 --> 00:14:31,280 Speaker 1: let her do what she's been doing without them being involved, 205 00:14:33,080 --> 00:14:38,600 Speaker 1: but they're so scared to wrong another citizen that they 206 00:14:38,600 --> 00:14:40,560 Speaker 1: don't do all the other dumb things that we're gonna do. 207 00:14:42,400 --> 00:14:46,800 Speaker 1: It makes some of you very uncomfortable that I will 208 00:14:46,880 --> 00:14:50,520 Speaker 1: light myself on fire figuratively. I don't like no one 209 00:14:50,600 --> 00:14:54,400 Speaker 1: be burned, no one goes to Shriners, that I will 210 00:14:55,600 --> 00:14:59,280 Speaker 1: create a dust up. But I learned this a long 211 00:14:59,320 --> 00:15:02,120 Speaker 1: time ago. You know, my chief of staff at city 212 00:15:02,120 --> 00:15:06,200 Speaker 1: Hall had been Sheila Jackson, Lee's chief of staff. He 213 00:15:06,360 --> 00:15:10,160 Speaker 1: was the first black male to be vice chairman of 214 00:15:10,200 --> 00:15:13,760 Speaker 1: the state Democrat Party. I hired him for one reason. 215 00:15:13,840 --> 00:15:16,240 Speaker 1: One reason only, well, have two reasons. I liked the 216 00:15:16,280 --> 00:15:20,120 Speaker 1: guy a lot. But number two, I knew that he 217 00:15:20,200 --> 00:15:23,320 Speaker 1: knew how to get things done. He had worked for 218 00:15:23,360 --> 00:15:27,280 Speaker 1: Sheila for years and years and years, and after that 219 00:15:27,360 --> 00:15:30,160 Speaker 1: he went to work for Selvester and he was very 220 00:15:30,200 --> 00:15:32,800 Speaker 1: loyal to me. People would laugh, They're like, Carl, what 221 00:15:32,840 --> 00:15:35,240 Speaker 1: are you doing working for a Republican. It was like, 222 00:15:35,480 --> 00:15:38,920 Speaker 1: he gets things done. He helps the community. And every 223 00:15:38,960 --> 00:15:42,600 Speaker 1: black pastor in town. We had a black mayor, Lee P. Brown. 224 00:15:43,480 --> 00:15:45,640 Speaker 1: They didn't call Brown when they needed to stop sign 225 00:15:45,680 --> 00:15:47,200 Speaker 1: in front of their church. They didn't call Brown when 226 00:15:47,200 --> 00:15:49,360 Speaker 1: there was drug dealing in front of their church, in 227 00:15:49,360 --> 00:15:52,960 Speaker 1: front of their house. They called our office. And I 228 00:15:53,040 --> 00:15:56,440 Speaker 1: built a network of contacts people with people in the 229 00:15:56,440 --> 00:16:03,280 Speaker 1: third ward, first ward, fifth ward, Sunnyside would have drug dealing. Literally, 230 00:16:03,320 --> 00:16:06,160 Speaker 1: the drug dealers would be parked in a Lincoln Continent 231 00:16:06,240 --> 00:16:08,480 Speaker 1: out in front of their house and they couldn't get 232 00:16:08,480 --> 00:16:10,120 Speaker 1: the cops to move it. I mean, can you imagine 233 00:16:10,160 --> 00:16:14,160 Speaker 1: there's drug deals going down, gunshots going on. They'd call 234 00:16:14,200 --> 00:16:18,920 Speaker 1: our office. I'd meet uh, what was his name, Danny 235 00:16:18,960 --> 00:16:21,880 Speaker 1: vallor what was his name. Oh, he was a Hispanic 236 00:16:22,160 --> 00:16:25,560 Speaker 1: vice chief. I'd meet him out at the house and 237 00:16:25,600 --> 00:16:27,280 Speaker 1: he'd come swarming up with a bunch of cops with 238 00:16:27,280 --> 00:16:30,080 Speaker 1: the lights on. Wasn't anything going on, and the drug 239 00:16:30,120 --> 00:16:33,080 Speaker 1: dealer they get out of there and they didn't know 240 00:16:33,120 --> 00:16:36,480 Speaker 1: what had happened, but they were moving. They were moving 241 00:16:36,520 --> 00:16:40,640 Speaker 1: somewhere else. And that's how we got things done. And 242 00:16:40,760 --> 00:16:43,680 Speaker 1: one thing I learned from Carl is a master at 243 00:16:44,800 --> 00:16:49,920 Speaker 1: that if you play nice, hey, City of Katie, could 244 00:16:49,920 --> 00:16:53,960 Speaker 1: you please not steal the kdie market days from this 245 00:16:54,040 --> 00:16:57,000 Speaker 1: nice lady who put this thing together, They'll say, well, 246 00:16:57,040 --> 00:16:58,960 Speaker 1: we want you to understand, we have a process. We're 247 00:16:58,960 --> 00:17:03,320 Speaker 1: gonna we're gonna talk to stakeholder ball. You're not gonna 248 00:17:03,320 --> 00:17:06,840 Speaker 1: do it. We're gonna rain down hell upon you, City 249 00:17:06,840 --> 00:17:10,160 Speaker 1: of Katie, mayor City Council. We are going to rain 250 00:17:10,640 --> 00:17:15,400 Speaker 1: down hell upon Once you learn that this is how 251 00:17:15,520 --> 00:17:20,720 Speaker 1: things are actually done, changes everything. But and I'm trying 252 00:17:20,720 --> 00:17:22,119 Speaker 1: to get this woman to call up here so we 253 00:17:22,160 --> 00:17:24,639 Speaker 1: can help her. Betsy Proctor's her name. It's called the 254 00:17:25,000 --> 00:17:28,480 Speaker 1: Limited Edition. You know what she does remove. I was thinking, what, 255 00:17:28,520 --> 00:17:30,240 Speaker 1: it's an antique store. I'm not gonna want to spend any 256 00:17:30,240 --> 00:17:32,960 Speaker 1: money there. You know what she does? She sells first 257 00:17:33,119 --> 00:17:38,080 Speaker 1: edition movie posters. Yeah, we'll buy some stuff, lady. Somebody 258 00:17:38,119 --> 00:17:41,560 Speaker 1: get her to call up here. Seven one three, one thousand. 259 00:17:41,920 --> 00:17:45,560 Speaker 2: With his finger on the pulse, The King of Team 260 00:17:45,800 --> 00:17:48,160 Speaker 2: continues on the Michael Berry Show. 261 00:17:50,880 --> 00:17:57,080 Speaker 1: That Black Heaven. It's once you think it's hell fire up, 262 00:17:58,080 --> 00:18:02,520 Speaker 1: then you hear hell fire up side. 263 00:18:10,680 --> 00:18:18,399 Speaker 3: My spine, my fis mine. 264 00:18:19,280 --> 00:18:23,600 Speaker 1: Why I'm saying hell fire? Yeah, once you think of 265 00:18:23,640 --> 00:18:29,960 Speaker 1: it as that hell fire. I have received a message 266 00:18:30,040 --> 00:18:35,239 Speaker 1: that the owner of the antique shop in Katie is 267 00:18:35,280 --> 00:18:40,440 Speaker 1: not exactly our kind of people. She is an extreme liberal. 268 00:18:41,520 --> 00:18:44,240 Speaker 1: There may be more to this story than meets the eye. 269 00:18:44,359 --> 00:18:49,520 Speaker 1: We will find out, we will endeavor to discover. But 270 00:18:49,600 --> 00:18:53,720 Speaker 1: we are always on the lookout or any governmental entity 271 00:18:53,840 --> 00:18:58,480 Speaker 1: overstepping their reach. And that is because the government has 272 00:18:58,520 --> 00:19:02,360 Speaker 1: the power, they've got the resources, they've got the badge, 273 00:19:03,320 --> 00:19:06,560 Speaker 1: they've got people with nothing else to do than harass people. 274 00:19:07,200 --> 00:19:11,600 Speaker 1: And we are always on the lookout to turn the 275 00:19:11,600 --> 00:19:14,360 Speaker 1: people against that sort of nonsense, because that's what you're 276 00:19:14,400 --> 00:19:19,320 Speaker 1: supposed to do. That's we're the king. You're the servant. 277 00:19:19,560 --> 00:19:22,960 Speaker 1: You are the servant of the public, the public servant. 278 00:19:24,119 --> 00:19:29,040 Speaker 1: Sassy Rights Second Baptists hosted the Angels of Lightness past weekend. 279 00:19:30,040 --> 00:19:32,520 Speaker 1: Buses are brought from all over the city with families 280 00:19:32,520 --> 00:19:35,840 Speaker 1: in need. They get to have a meal, they see 281 00:19:35,840 --> 00:19:40,359 Speaker 1: the incredible model trains display. They enjoy entertainment and the 282 00:19:40,359 --> 00:19:43,399 Speaker 1: sharing of the Gospel. When they get back on the 283 00:19:43,400 --> 00:19:47,040 Speaker 1: buses to go home, there are wrapped toys for each child, 284 00:19:47,440 --> 00:19:50,560 Speaker 1: a bag of groceries, a copy of the Bible in 285 00:19:50,600 --> 00:19:54,840 Speaker 1: their own language, and special treats for the family. Our 286 00:19:55,000 --> 00:19:59,720 Speaker 1: church family gets to love on these families and make 287 00:20:00,119 --> 00:20:04,800 Speaker 1: what might be their only Christmas. We served close to 288 00:20:04,960 --> 00:20:10,600 Speaker 1: nine thousand families over the weekend. Wow. I served in 289 00:20:10,640 --> 00:20:14,359 Speaker 1: the gym where they served lunch on Saturday, and I 290 00:20:14,440 --> 00:20:17,800 Speaker 1: was privileged to wait on about fifty Camp Pope veterans. 291 00:20:18,520 --> 00:20:20,720 Speaker 1: They seemed to be enjoying themselves and they were looking 292 00:20:20,760 --> 00:20:23,800 Speaker 1: forward to the train display. I told them they were 293 00:20:23,840 --> 00:20:27,919 Speaker 1: getting to be kids again. It was a beautiful experience. 294 00:20:30,040 --> 00:20:34,880 Speaker 1: Well how about that? That makes me very happy. Indeed, 295 00:20:37,720 --> 00:20:40,960 Speaker 1: I won't be able to read out all the wonderful 296 00:20:41,040 --> 00:20:47,680 Speaker 1: things that people are doing at this time of year 297 00:20:49,280 --> 00:20:56,800 Speaker 1: to help other people in need. I texted ramon this weekend, Hey, 298 00:20:56,800 --> 00:20:58,600 Speaker 1: what are you doing? He said, well, we're just cleaning 299 00:20:58,640 --> 00:21:02,320 Speaker 1: up around the house. And they had decided that they 300 00:21:02,359 --> 00:21:07,840 Speaker 1: were going to take their boys. Are now what grade 301 00:21:07,880 --> 00:21:08,280 Speaker 1: are Ali? 302 00:21:08,320 --> 00:21:08,920 Speaker 2: In July. 303 00:21:10,200 --> 00:21:13,600 Speaker 1: First and third? And he and his wife Amy had 304 00:21:13,640 --> 00:21:15,800 Speaker 1: decided that their Saturday and Sunday was going to be 305 00:21:15,840 --> 00:21:20,080 Speaker 1: spent with their boys, saying, all right, let's go three 306 00:21:20,280 --> 00:21:23,480 Speaker 1: through things we don't use anymore, and let's clear some 307 00:21:23,560 --> 00:21:29,200 Speaker 1: space in the house. And it being Christmas, let's box 308 00:21:29,359 --> 00:21:33,320 Speaker 1: everything up that's still in good shape and usable, and 309 00:21:33,400 --> 00:21:36,240 Speaker 1: let's give that to the veterans at Camp Hope to 310 00:21:36,240 --> 00:21:40,000 Speaker 1: give to their children. Not junk. I have to say 311 00:21:40,040 --> 00:21:42,840 Speaker 1: this because sometimes we end up with people bringing literally 312 00:21:43,040 --> 00:21:46,399 Speaker 1: junk over there that nobody would want. But by and 313 00:21:46,520 --> 00:21:52,439 Speaker 1: large things can be reused. The reason this matters is 314 00:21:53,400 --> 00:21:57,560 Speaker 1: consider this for a moment. The Camp Hope residency is 315 00:21:57,600 --> 00:22:02,919 Speaker 1: about a six month program. I'll say about because it 316 00:22:03,000 --> 00:22:08,040 Speaker 1: is Christian baths. There is Bible study, but it's abstinence. 317 00:22:09,000 --> 00:22:13,639 Speaker 1: When someone comes to the program a combat veteran suffering 318 00:22:13,720 --> 00:22:20,760 Speaker 1: from PTSD, they have almost one hundred percent of the time. 319 00:22:20,800 --> 00:22:23,320 Speaker 1: I met one recently that this wasn't the case. His 320 00:22:23,520 --> 00:22:27,120 Speaker 1: was purely mental and self harm. But they have almost 321 00:22:27,119 --> 00:22:31,879 Speaker 1: one hundred percent of the time developed coping techniques, self 322 00:22:31,920 --> 00:22:39,240 Speaker 1: medication to deal with the trauma of war and the 323 00:22:39,320 --> 00:22:44,520 Speaker 1: separation from their unit. Oftentimes, that's a very difficult thing, 324 00:22:44,720 --> 00:22:47,760 Speaker 1: operating as a team, operating in the fog of war, 325 00:22:48,359 --> 00:22:51,720 Speaker 1: operating the intensity of war, and that can create issues 326 00:22:51,760 --> 00:22:55,080 Speaker 1: in and of itself, the things they've witnessed, all the 327 00:22:55,119 --> 00:22:59,359 Speaker 1: inability to integrate back into a normal society. I mean, 328 00:23:00,119 --> 00:23:03,320 Speaker 1: imagine you're going home to home clearing homes and you 329 00:23:03,400 --> 00:23:05,880 Speaker 1: might have to kill somebody at any moment, something that 330 00:23:05,960 --> 00:23:08,679 Speaker 1: most of us will never have to confront. Your buddy 331 00:23:08,720 --> 00:23:10,919 Speaker 1: might be killed. You've got to be at such a 332 00:23:11,000 --> 00:23:14,639 Speaker 1: level of intensity to keep yourself and your buddy alive, 333 00:23:15,640 --> 00:23:18,280 Speaker 1: and then you come home and they go, hey, go 334 00:23:18,320 --> 00:23:22,800 Speaker 1: to work in this warehouse and stack these boxes. I 335 00:23:22,840 --> 00:23:25,760 Speaker 1: mean that that can be a little hard on a 336 00:23:25,880 --> 00:23:30,080 Speaker 1: on a person. That can be a cope. And so 337 00:23:32,680 --> 00:23:35,240 Speaker 1: we tend to have a lot more veterans come in 338 00:23:35,359 --> 00:23:38,880 Speaker 1: around the holidays because this is the time that everybody 339 00:23:38,880 --> 00:23:42,480 Speaker 1: else is happy and they're not happy, and that creates 340 00:23:42,520 --> 00:23:45,600 Speaker 1: its own trigger. So you get a guy that comes 341 00:23:45,600 --> 00:23:50,680 Speaker 1: in first week in November and you know, he's he's 342 00:23:50,840 --> 00:23:54,040 Speaker 1: now he's off the booze and the drugs and the 343 00:23:54,080 --> 00:23:57,800 Speaker 1: things that and he's getting his mind right. But he 344 00:23:57,880 --> 00:24:01,680 Speaker 1: had to leave behind a wife and kids, which is 345 00:24:01,720 --> 00:24:03,879 Speaker 1: I mean, these are young men, think about it, especially 346 00:24:03,960 --> 00:24:06,600 Speaker 1: Iraq and Afghanistan. A lot of these a lot of 347 00:24:06,640 --> 00:24:09,440 Speaker 1: these folks have kids that are, you know, a year 348 00:24:09,560 --> 00:24:15,040 Speaker 1: to fifteen years old, and now all of a sudden, 349 00:24:15,920 --> 00:24:18,640 Speaker 1: he's at Camp Hope, which means he can't earn any 350 00:24:18,680 --> 00:24:22,160 Speaker 1: money and his kids aren't going to have a Christmas. 351 00:24:23,359 --> 00:24:26,080 Speaker 1: Well you can start to see how this becomes a 352 00:24:26,119 --> 00:24:29,359 Speaker 1: real issue. And that is why I can't hope. Focus 353 00:24:29,400 --> 00:24:34,240 Speaker 1: is very hard on providing things that the veterans can 354 00:24:34,280 --> 00:24:37,800 Speaker 1: give to their kids, because that veteran needs to heal 355 00:24:38,119 --> 00:24:41,320 Speaker 1: at that moment. Anybody that, and many of you have, 356 00:24:41,480 --> 00:24:44,679 Speaker 1: you've had a heart attack, or a stroke, or a 357 00:24:44,720 --> 00:24:47,440 Speaker 1: back surgery for that matter, there's a period of time 358 00:24:47,800 --> 00:24:53,120 Speaker 1: where you can't be a contributing member of the economy. 359 00:24:53,280 --> 00:24:58,440 Speaker 1: You've got to first get yourself healed right. You've got 360 00:24:58,440 --> 00:25:00,960 Speaker 1: a first lay up and get whatever it was that 361 00:25:01,160 --> 00:25:05,360 Speaker 1: was wrong with you physically and in this case, mentally, emotionally, 362 00:25:05,400 --> 00:25:09,240 Speaker 1: spiritually right. And so we don't want them to have 363 00:25:09,240 --> 00:25:13,119 Speaker 1: to worry about their kids. It's reasonable. Life is not perfect. 364 00:25:13,160 --> 00:25:15,720 Speaker 1: We got kids that are also going through their Christmas 365 00:25:15,760 --> 00:25:17,240 Speaker 1: and they don't know what's wrong with daddy. 366 00:25:17,680 --> 00:25:21,440 Speaker 2: From Portland to Albany and all great cities in between, 367 00:25:21,600 --> 00:25:42,480 Speaker 2: the Michael Berry Show is nationwide. 368 00:25:44,240 --> 00:25:48,439 Speaker 1: Ken Rights want to get rid of high fructose corn syrup, 369 00:25:49,720 --> 00:25:53,760 Speaker 1: get rid of the US sugar program, as the dean 370 00:25:53,760 --> 00:25:57,480 Speaker 1: of one medical center said, because fructose has no nutritional 371 00:25:57,560 --> 00:26:03,119 Speaker 1: value and is not metabolized, your body and mind don't 372 00:26:03,160 --> 00:26:08,359 Speaker 1: register that you've taken anything. In Originally authorized by the 373 00:26:08,359 --> 00:26:10,800 Speaker 1: two thousand and two Farm Bill to protect the sugar 374 00:26:10,840 --> 00:26:14,800 Speaker 1: cane and sugar beet industry, the program now prevents them 375 00:26:14,800 --> 00:26:19,760 Speaker 1: from competing with producers of the corn syrup sweeteners. Sugar 376 00:26:19,800 --> 00:26:24,000 Speaker 1: tariffs and sugar subsidies now enrich a few powerful corporations. 377 00:26:24,640 --> 00:26:28,600 Speaker 1: We don't need to require food processors to make a change. 378 00:26:28,640 --> 00:26:31,199 Speaker 1: Just get rid of the sugar program and get rid 379 00:26:31,240 --> 00:26:34,800 Speaker 1: of sugar tariffs. Sugar on the world market is cheaper 380 00:26:35,400 --> 00:26:43,280 Speaker 1: than a high fructose corn syrup. You know, when I 381 00:26:43,320 --> 00:26:47,280 Speaker 1: first got to city council, Houston City Council in January 382 00:26:47,359 --> 00:26:55,879 Speaker 1: of two thousand and two, I started noticing things that 383 00:26:55,960 --> 00:27:01,000 Speaker 1: I'd never known as a candidate. Start I didn't noticing 384 00:27:01,760 --> 00:27:08,480 Speaker 1: how there were certain programs at the city that nobody 385 00:27:08,520 --> 00:27:17,439 Speaker 1: seemed to know about. And they had lobbyists who would 386 00:27:17,520 --> 00:27:18,080 Speaker 1: you'd get. 387 00:27:17,920 --> 00:27:18,520 Speaker 2: A call. 388 00:27:20,119 --> 00:27:25,119 Speaker 1: From your Republican buddy and who want to go to 389 00:27:25,160 --> 00:27:29,080 Speaker 1: lunch while you were at lunching, Hey, what do you 390 00:27:29,119 --> 00:27:33,800 Speaker 1: think about the so and so?

Yeah okay, And 394 00:27:44,560 --> 00:27:49,200 Speaker 1: they would tell you that, you know, there's a lot 395 00:27:49,200 --> 00:27:52,400 Speaker 1: of misinformation out there about that it's actually a good program, 396 00:27:53,760 --> 00:27:58,840 Speaker 1: really explain to me why, and then you would come 397 00:27:58,880 --> 00:28:03,480 Speaker 1: to find out that that company that had a big 398 00:28:03,520 --> 00:28:11,000 Speaker 1: city contract would have your white conservative, blue blood proper 399 00:28:11,080 --> 00:28:19,040 Speaker 1: blazer khakis wingtips who would take me to lunch, while 400 00:28:19,080 --> 00:28:23,040 Speaker 1: at the same time they had a former city councilman 401 00:28:23,119 --> 00:28:27,760 Speaker 1: who was a black female radical leftist who was taking 402 00:28:28,840 --> 00:28:33,120 Speaker 1: the black female radical leftist to lunch. And they had 403 00:28:33,119 --> 00:28:36,760 Speaker 1: a Hispanic who was taking the prominent Hispanic democrat to lunch. 404 00:28:39,360 --> 00:28:44,760 Speaker 1: And then you find out, wait a minute, these people 405 00:28:45,640 --> 00:28:49,360 Speaker 1: who I thought I could trust don't give a damn 406 00:28:49,400 --> 00:28:56,120 Speaker 1: about good government. We'd start the lunch talking about it 407 00:28:56,160 --> 00:29:02,640 Speaker 1: would go like this, Man, everywhere I go, people are 408 00:29:02,760 --> 00:29:05,360 Speaker 1: blown away that you won.

They'd say, 420 00:29:53,920 --> 00:29:59,040 Speaker 1: you do realize as a black woman on the fourth 421 00:29:59,160 --> 00:30:03,280 Speaker 1: largest city compt in the country, coming out of nowhere 422 00:30:03,320 --> 00:30:07,200 Speaker 1: to win this race, Sheila's not going to be there forever. 423 00:30:08,880 --> 00:30:15,560 Speaker 1: You're the next congressman, governor.

All we want is good government. 425 00:30:20,080 --> 00:30:25,920 Speaker 1: But good government meant supporting their wasteful program. So what 426 00:30:26,000 --> 00:30:28,680 Speaker 1: you end up finding out and this is a very 427 00:30:28,720 --> 00:30:32,920 Speaker 1: difficult conversation. I have with people every day, whether it 428 00:30:33,000 --> 00:30:39,960 Speaker 1: be a homeowners association president, a grassroots person, A lot 429 00:30:40,000 --> 00:30:44,800 Speaker 1: of it is business owners.

I know what he tells you, 434 00:31:01,080 --> 00:31:02,440 Speaker 1: and I really don't care if he's a good guy 435 00:31:02,480 --> 00:31:04,080 Speaker 1: or not. I don't care if he plays checkers or 436 00:31:04,160 --> 00:31:07,920 Speaker 1: chess or peanuckle or shoots the moon or whatever else 437 00:31:08,720 --> 00:31:13,240 Speaker 1: I'm telling you, he's voting with the lobby, with the 438 00:31:13,280 --> 00:31:19,120 Speaker 1: backing of the Democrats, the grassroots. For you have this 439 00:31:19,160 --> 00:31:24,520 Speaker 1: conversation with people all the time. You are against what 440 00:31:24,560 --> 00:31:29,480 Speaker 1: he's voting for, and he is against what you're voting for. 441 00:31:31,320 --> 00:31:33,320 Speaker 1: Man I go to church with him. Of course you do, 442 00:31:34,240 --> 00:31:37,840 Speaker 1: because that's what you do. You see, if you're going 443 00:31:37,920 --> 00:31:41,120 Speaker 1: to be bought and paid for by the lobby, how 444 00:31:41,160 --> 00:31:43,360 Speaker 1: do you tell the people in your district you're. 445 00:31:43,240 --> 00:31:43,760 Speaker 2: Just like him. 446 00:31:46,400 --> 00:31:49,520 Speaker 1: You go to church with him, You show up at 447 00:31:49,520 --> 00:31:53,520 Speaker 1: the high school football games, you use the words they 448 00:31:53,560 --> 00:31:58,440 Speaker 1: care about. You occasionally send out, send out or put 449 00:31:58,520 --> 00:32:01,280 Speaker 1: up a post that Obama's terrible guy or Biden's a 450 00:32:01,320 --> 00:32:06,840 Speaker 1: terrible guy, and by default they figure you're just like them, 451 00:32:07,920 --> 00:32:12,800 Speaker 1: and they're just like you. Karl Rove was a master 452 00:32:12,960 --> 00:32:17,080 Speaker 1: of this. Did George W. Bush ever do what you 453 00:32:17,160 --> 00:32:20,360 Speaker 1: wanted him to do? As president? What did he do? 454 00:32:21,560 --> 00:32:25,400 Speaker 1: He served the war miners. He got us into two wars. 455 00:32:26,960 --> 00:32:30,560 Speaker 1: Isn't it odd that supposedly Bush and Obama and Biden 456 00:32:30,560 --> 00:32:35,040 Speaker 1: they're all so different, but they kept us in the 457 00:32:35,040 --> 00:32:39,240 Speaker 1: same wars, which twenty years later and all the loss 458 00:32:39,240 --> 00:32:44,240 Speaker 1: of life later. I'm going to discuss this this evening. 459 00:32:45,480 --> 00:32:49,160 Speaker 1: The Siria question is a very, very complicated question. Some 460 00:32:49,200 --> 00:32:50,640 Speaker 1: of you will not like what I have to say 461 00:32:50,680 --> 00:32:53,560 Speaker 1: about it. They're mad at Trump because he doesn't want 462 00:32:53,600 --> 00:32:57,440 Speaker 1: to get involved in it yet, and they're convincing people 463 00:32:58,240 --> 00:33:02,000 Speaker 1: that it's good for Asad to be bounced from being 464 00:33:02,000 --> 00:33:05,480 Speaker 1: the leader of Syria. It's a good thing because Asad's 465 00:33:05,480 --> 00:33:09,120 Speaker 1: a bad guy and he doesn't like Israel. But do 466 00:33:09,160 --> 00:33:14,800 Speaker 1: you realize who's taking over? That's Al Qaieda? You realize 467 00:33:15,840 --> 00:33:19,600 Speaker 1: the rebels. This ain't the US Civil War. These ain't 468 00:33:19,640 --> 00:33:23,720 Speaker 1: the good guys. This is Al Qaeda. We saw this 469 00:33:24,480 --> 00:33:28,400 Speaker 1: in Iraq, we saw this in Afghanistan, we saw this 470 00:33:28,480 --> 00:33:32,800 Speaker 1: in Egypt, we saw this in Libya. The very people 471 00:33:32,880 --> 00:33:36,200 Speaker 1: who killed our people at Benghazi were the people we 472 00:33:36,400 --> 00:33:41,240 Speaker 1: empowered by creating a power vacuum when we kick Kadafi out. 473 00:33:41,720 --> 00:33:44,480 Speaker 1: No one wants to be the pro Kadafi guy. But 474 00:33:44,760 --> 00:33:50,200 Speaker 1: sometimes the bad guy we know is better than this element. 475 00:33:50,520 --> 00:33:53,640 Speaker 1: So why would the establishment Democrat and Republican want that 476 00:33:55,040 --> 00:33:58,800 Speaker 1: sell more guns? They want a war in Syria. And 477 00:33:58,840 --> 00:34:01,280 Speaker 1: by the way, we're going to be in a war 478 00:34:01,360 --> 00:34:05,560 Speaker 1: in Syria count on that. And I got military age 479 00:34:05,600 --> 00:34:08,360 Speaker 1: boys and I ain't sending them to Syria, and I 480 00:34:08,360 --> 00:34:10,160 Speaker 1: ain't paying for the guns, and I ain't paying for 481 00:34:10,200 --> 00:34:12,080 Speaker 1: the mrs. And I ain't paying for the body backs 482 00:34:12,120 --> 00:34:12,680 Speaker 1: to bring them home
