But anyway, we 20 00:01:00,040 --> 00:01:03,280 Speaker 1: are here because we'd love to see how Minnesota showed 21 00:01:03,360 --> 00:01:06,160 Speaker 1: up for the world, and so we wanted to show 22 00:01:06,200 --> 00:01:06,880 Speaker 1: up for Minnesota. 23 00:01:06,959 --> 00:01:07,959 Speaker 2: So this is where we are. 24 00:01:08,600 --> 00:01:11,520 Speaker 1: Tuesday night, Lady of Lampod held a live town hall 25 00:01:11,560 --> 00:01:14,360 Speaker 1: at the Historic Capri Theater and partnership with State of 26 00:01:14,400 --> 00:01:16,920 Speaker 1: the People, Minnesota Freedom Fund, and the Capri Theater, we 27 00:01:17,000 --> 00:01:21,119 Speaker 1: provided free groceries, hygiene, kids, and legal services to Minnesota's 28 00:01:21,120 --> 00:01:25,520 Speaker 1: We had an amazing guests including NAACP President Derrek Johnson, Minnesota 29 00:01:25,560 --> 00:01:30,600 Speaker 1: Freedom funds Eli Dairis Janey, Amari Bates, Minister Janey of Isaiah, 30 00:01:30,640 --> 00:01:33,680 Speaker 1: Attorney General Keith Ellison, who had this to say. 31 00:01:34,360 --> 00:01:37,440 Speaker 4: This situation, this oppression that Minnesota is under right now, 32 00:01:37,840 --> 00:01:43,000 Speaker 4: will not be solved in a courtroom. The real justice 33 00:01:43,040 --> 00:01:46,440 Speaker 4: and the real freedom and the real true democracy will 34 00:01:46,440 --> 00:01:49,560 Speaker 4: be because you go out in the street and demonstrate 35 00:01:50,040 --> 00:01:51,680 Speaker 4: and say no to this oppression. 36 00:01:52,760 --> 00:01:54,160 Speaker 5: It is the people. 37 00:01:53,960 --> 00:01:55,720 Speaker 4: In the street, in the hearts and the minds of 38 00:01:55,760 --> 00:02:00,160 Speaker 4: the people marching in nine below weather, standing up and 39 00:02:00,240 --> 00:02:02,880 Speaker 4: saying no, We're not going to let you roll over 40 00:02:02,960 --> 00:02:05,320 Speaker 4: us this way, which is going to win the day. 41 00:02:07,000 --> 00:02:10,560 Speaker 4: Together with elections, together with the artists, together with all 42 00:02:10,600 --> 00:02:12,960 Speaker 4: of these things that we collect to try to create 43 00:02:13,000 --> 00:02:17,480 Speaker 4: a just society. And it's not overnight, And I cannot 44 00:02:17,480 --> 00:02:24,560 Speaker 4: guarantee you perfect safety as you fight for justice. There's 45 00:02:24,560 --> 00:02:28,400 Speaker 4: no guarantee of perfect safety. When an oppress or feels 46 00:02:28,400 --> 00:02:33,359 Speaker 4: threatened that you're trying to be free yourself. So at 47 00:02:33,360 --> 00:02:35,920 Speaker 4: the end of the day, friends, I am asking you 48 00:02:35,960 --> 00:02:36,560 Speaker 4: to protest. 49 00:02:37,680 --> 00:02:40,480 Speaker 1: I love that I am asking you to protest and 50 00:02:40,520 --> 00:02:42,880 Speaker 1: doing that against all odds, even in the face of 51 00:02:42,919 --> 00:02:44,680 Speaker 1: not being able to say I can protect you. 52 00:02:45,040 --> 00:02:46,360 Speaker 2: But that is the only way to be. 53 00:02:46,880 --> 00:02:49,920 Speaker 5: Two things stuck out about that. One is I'm not 54 00:02:49,960 --> 00:02:53,280 Speaker 5: sure people really understand how cold it is in Minneapolis. 55 00:02:53,560 --> 00:02:56,600 Speaker 5: He said, nine degrees. Belove, It's been zero. I don't 56 00:02:56,600 --> 00:02:58,520 Speaker 5: even know if you put if a degree is plural 57 00:02:58,639 --> 00:03:02,720 Speaker 5: or not. It's been zero degree grees whatever. It's cold 58 00:03:02,720 --> 00:03:05,840 Speaker 5: as hell outside. And it adds a different layer of 59 00:03:05,880 --> 00:03:08,200 Speaker 5: context to the people in their sacrifice, because you know, 60 00:03:08,240 --> 00:03:10,679 Speaker 5: a lot of people want to be comfortable when they protest, 61 00:03:10,919 --> 00:03:14,280 Speaker 5: and it ain't shit comfortable about Minneapolis, Minnesota right now outside. 62 00:03:14,320 --> 00:03:16,240 Speaker 5: That's first. The second thing is it reminds me of 63 00:03:16,240 --> 00:03:18,280 Speaker 5: my dad telling me about how they went to Philadelphia, 64 00:03:18,280 --> 00:03:21,280 Speaker 5: Mississippi looking for the bodies of Goodman Schriner in Cheney, 65 00:03:22,040 --> 00:03:24,440 Speaker 5: and during the day they had to hide in barns 66 00:03:24,480 --> 00:03:26,160 Speaker 5: and sheds, and at night they would go out and 67 00:03:26,160 --> 00:03:28,440 Speaker 5: looking ditches and trenches. And he was always like they 68 00:03:28,440 --> 00:03:31,600 Speaker 5: couldn't wear belt buckles, they couldn't wear anything shiny. They 69 00:03:31,680 --> 00:03:33,639 Speaker 5: just had to wear denim, and they had to wear 70 00:03:33,720 --> 00:03:35,800 Speaker 5: dark colors because they didn't want to be identified, they 71 00:03:35,800 --> 00:03:38,600 Speaker 5: didn't want to be seen, because you could not ensure 72 00:03:39,520 --> 00:03:44,960 Speaker 5: people's safety. And so that is probably the direct parallel 73 00:03:45,000 --> 00:03:47,280 Speaker 5: that I see. But it also harkens back and makes 74 00:03:47,280 --> 00:03:50,360 Speaker 5: you really sober about the time period that we're in now. 75 00:03:50,880 --> 00:03:53,320 Speaker 5: When you think about looking for Goodman, Schriner and Cheney 76 00:03:53,360 --> 00:03:56,080 Speaker 5: and the attorney general who's the chief law enforcement officer 77 00:03:56,160 --> 00:04:00,200 Speaker 5: of your state saying I cannot protect your safety. I 78 00:04:00,200 --> 00:04:04,040 Speaker 5: mean that is those things jumped out at me pretty profoundly. 79 00:04:04,320 --> 00:04:06,560 Speaker 6: Yeah, it's not surprising though, I mean that's what we've 80 00:04:06,600 --> 00:04:10,120 Speaker 6: seen over and over again in you know, with history 81 00:04:10,160 --> 00:04:10,680 Speaker 6: and everything. 82 00:04:11,080 --> 00:04:12,720 Speaker 7: And I think it was. 83 00:04:12,760 --> 00:04:15,360 Speaker 6: Derek who said last night that we've never seen anything 84 00:04:15,400 --> 00:04:17,680 Speaker 6: like this, but we've always seen something like that. Yeah, 85 00:04:17,760 --> 00:04:20,400 Speaker 6: So both of those statements are true, and it's not 86 00:04:20,440 --> 00:04:22,880 Speaker 6: surprising that it's always been people in the community having 87 00:04:22,880 --> 00:04:24,800 Speaker 6: to rise up and protect one another when it comes 88 00:04:24,800 --> 00:04:27,640 Speaker 6: to the civil rights movement and you know, all of 89 00:04:27,680 --> 00:04:30,279 Speaker 6: the fights for our rights, it's always been having to 90 00:04:30,360 --> 00:04:32,760 Speaker 6: also work outside of the system, including the legal system, 91 00:04:32,839 --> 00:04:34,200 Speaker 6: to actually keep each other safe. 92 00:04:34,720 --> 00:04:38,040 Speaker 3: You know where the clip ended. The next few words 93 00:04:38,040 --> 00:04:41,320 Speaker 3: from the Attorney General were peaceful protest. We want you 94 00:04:41,360 --> 00:04:43,479 Speaker 3: to protest, and we want you to do so peacefully, 95 00:04:43,560 --> 00:04:47,839 Speaker 3: which has been quite frankly, the tenor since the nation 96 00:04:47,880 --> 00:04:50,920 Speaker 3: began paying attention to what's happening here. It's been peaceful, 97 00:04:51,560 --> 00:04:56,640 Speaker 3: it's been passionate, it's been sacrificial, but it also has 98 00:04:56,680 --> 00:05:02,039 Speaker 3: been incredibly impactful. Last night, the Lieutenant Governor of the state, 99 00:05:02,080 --> 00:05:07,480 Speaker 3: Peggy Flanagan, said that they are that they are tired 100 00:05:09,440 --> 00:05:11,960 Speaker 3: as but they continue to work. And she said it 101 00:05:12,040 --> 00:05:16,239 Speaker 3: much more eloquently than I just repeated. But the sense 102 00:05:16,279 --> 00:05:19,360 Speaker 3: that she was trying to communicate is, yes, they are exhausted. 103 00:05:19,640 --> 00:05:23,400 Speaker 3: They are terribly exhausted. Their bodies are exhausted, their minds, 104 00:05:23,440 --> 00:05:29,520 Speaker 3: their spirit, attitudes, everything about this would exhaust you, It 105 00:05:29,560 --> 00:05:32,560 Speaker 3: would exhaust any of us. But yet day after day 106 00:05:32,680 --> 00:05:36,000 Speaker 3: after day, you know, these folks keep showing up. They 107 00:05:36,080 --> 00:05:39,120 Speaker 3: just keep doing it and exercising the muscle of consistency 108 00:05:39,160 --> 00:05:39,680 Speaker 3: in this fight. 109 00:05:39,920 --> 00:05:42,080 Speaker 5: Until you said that last night, that was profound. Can 110 00:05:42,720 --> 00:05:46,000 Speaker 5: we back up just one say, hold on before we eat, 111 00:05:46,080 --> 00:05:47,920 Speaker 5: know This is important. This is very important. 112 00:05:47,920 --> 00:05:49,320 Speaker 1: I just want you all to know this is supposed 113 00:05:49,320 --> 00:05:51,720 Speaker 1: to be a quick segment and these two every time 114 00:05:51,760 --> 00:05:52,080 Speaker 1: go back. 115 00:05:52,240 --> 00:05:53,680 Speaker 5: Let me let me just say this.

And support is the word. 178 00:08:34,040 --> 00:08:37,600 Speaker 6: It wasn't about taking over or you know, creating the 179 00:08:37,640 --> 00:08:40,040 Speaker 6: narrative for Minnesota's but instead of amplifying it, and that's 180 00:08:40,040 --> 00:08:40,600 Speaker 6: what you did. 181 00:08:40,960 --> 00:08:43,360 Speaker 1: That's what we did.

That's terror, 187 00:08:53,440 --> 00:08:54,880 Speaker 5: that's a terrible first. 188 00:08:56,440 --> 00:08:59,040 Speaker 1: Guys, everybody knows that Charles Barkley was one of the 189 00:08:59,040 --> 00:09:02,839 Speaker 1: greatest utility players of our time. Please ignore this, jackass, 190 00:09:03,320 --> 00:09:07,000 Speaker 1: I mean, FYSA, you off message. Now, this is the 191 00:09:07,040 --> 00:09:09,080 Speaker 1: thing that I also think is important with State of 192 00:09:09,080 --> 00:09:11,360 Speaker 1: the People. We saw every city we were going to 193 00:09:11,400 --> 00:09:16,040 Speaker 1: andrew right before we got there, something happened that necessitated 194 00:09:16,200 --> 00:09:19,280 Speaker 1: us being there in coalition with local orgers and national orgs. 195 00:09:19,280 --> 00:09:22,440 Speaker 1: And something happened in Minnesota Saturday too. We were already coming. 196 00:09:22,440 --> 00:09:24,160 Speaker 1: We knew as a Thursday. We didn't know a whole week, 197 00:09:24,200 --> 00:09:26,200 Speaker 1: but we knew as a Thursday we were going to 198 00:09:26,240 --> 00:09:29,640 Speaker 1: be here. Something happened last Saturday. On January twenty fourth, 199 00:09:29,920 --> 00:09:32,520 Speaker 1: Alex Preddy, which is who is a thirty seven year 200 00:09:32,559 --> 00:09:36,079 Speaker 1: old intensive care nurse for the United States Department of 201 00:09:36,160 --> 00:09:39,600 Speaker 1: Veterans Affairs, was murdered in cold blood. He was shot 202 00:09:39,720 --> 00:09:43,880 Speaker 1: multiple times by Customs and Border Protection. That's a very 203 00:09:43,920 --> 00:09:46,520 Speaker 1: important thing for you all to hear Customs and Border Protection, 204 00:09:46,559 --> 00:09:51,120 Speaker 1: which is the Border Patrol CBP officers. After multiple contradictions 205 00:09:51,120 --> 00:09:53,920 Speaker 1: at every level of government, Trump is now calling for 206 00:09:54,080 --> 00:09:57,400 Speaker 1: de escalating a little bit, among other things. 207 00:09:57,480 --> 00:09:58,240 Speaker 2: Let's roll the clip. 208 00:09:58,920 --> 00:10:01,079 Speaker 8: We're gonna dsk a little bit, but I will tell 209 00:10:01,120 --> 00:10:04,600 Speaker 8: you you look at the numbers, they're doing better than 210 00:10:04,640 --> 00:10:06,640 Speaker 8: they've done in many years. As we had a very 211 00:10:06,640 --> 00:10:11,319 Speaker 8: reasonable conversation, very good conversation, if you believe the conversation, 212 00:10:11,400 --> 00:10:14,199 Speaker 8: he'd like to get this thing over with. I don't 213 00:10:14,280 --> 00:10:16,600 Speaker 8: like the fact that he was carrying a gun that 214 00:10:16,760 --> 00:10:19,319 Speaker 8: was fully loaded and he had two magazines with him, 215 00:10:19,320 --> 00:10:23,120 Speaker 8: and it's pretty unusual, but nobody knows when they saw 216 00:10:23,160 --> 00:10:25,520 Speaker 8: the gun, how they saw the gun, everything else. The 217 00:10:25,520 --> 00:10:27,920 Speaker 8: bottom lineer was terrible. Both of them were terrible. The 218 00:10:28,000 --> 00:10:31,840 Speaker 8: other was terrible too. And I'm not sure about his parents, 219 00:10:31,840 --> 00:10:34,000 Speaker 8: but I know her parents were big Trump fans. Makes 220 00:10:34,040 --> 00:10:37,280 Speaker 8: me feel bad anyway, But I mean, I guess you 221 00:10:37,280 --> 00:10:38,319 Speaker 8: could say even worse. 222 00:10:39,040 --> 00:10:42,199 Speaker 1: Well, you know this man, I mean, he is a sociopath. 223 00:10:42,440 --> 00:10:44,880 Speaker 1: I just I have to say this, and we'll get 224 00:10:44,880 --> 00:10:47,520 Speaker 1: to this later. We're gonna have a full on conversation 225 00:10:47,559 --> 00:10:50,120 Speaker 1: about alex Pretty's Second Amendment and when it applies and 226 00:10:50,200 --> 00:10:53,200 Speaker 1: who it gets to apply to. But it is fascinating 227 00:10:53,240 --> 00:10:56,319 Speaker 1: to me that he would focus so much on whether 228 00:10:56,400 --> 00:10:58,559 Speaker 1: or not they were supporters. When you take the oath 229 00:10:58,600 --> 00:11:00,560 Speaker 1: of office, y'all know this too. When you take the 230 00:11:00,559 --> 00:11:05,240 Speaker 1: oath of office, you are serving everyone in your district, 231 00:11:05,240 --> 00:11:08,280 Speaker 1: in your constituency. He's supposed to be serving the whole 232 00:11:08,280 --> 00:11:10,800 Speaker 1: of America and all of our partners, all of you know, 233 00:11:10,880 --> 00:11:13,200 Speaker 1: all of our allies. That's not what he's doing. He's 234 00:11:13,240 --> 00:11:16,320 Speaker 1: like depending on if you're a Trump fan, not a supporter, 235 00:11:16,440 --> 00:11:19,040 Speaker 1: a Trump fan, then he gets you get a different 236 00:11:19,080 --> 00:11:19,560 Speaker 1: level of play. 237 00:11:19,600 --> 00:11:20,480 Speaker 2: I just think it's crazy. 238 00:11:20,640 --> 00:11:23,600 Speaker 3: Yeah, that's why in some ways it called the oath solemn, 239 00:11:24,360 --> 00:11:26,679 Speaker 3: because there's some people on the other side who did 240 00:11:26,720 --> 00:11:29,360 Speaker 3: everything in their power to ensure that you didn't descend 241 00:11:29,400 --> 00:11:34,160 Speaker 3: to whatever that position of public trust is. But you 242 00:11:34,440 --> 00:11:37,360 Speaker 3: make that oath, and you take that oath so seriously 243 00:11:37,480 --> 00:11:41,560 Speaker 3: and so solemnly because you need the strength of not 244 00:11:41,600 --> 00:11:43,560 Speaker 3: only your oath and your word, but your faith and 245 00:11:43,600 --> 00:11:45,840 Speaker 3: everything else to keep you honest to it throughout the 246 00:11:45,880 --> 00:11:48,240 Speaker 3: term of your service. That you've got to be. When 247 00:11:48,240 --> 00:11:50,320 Speaker 3: you're elected governor, you're not governor for the people who 248 00:11:50,400 --> 00:11:52,319 Speaker 3: voted for you. When you're elected mayor, is not that 249 00:11:52,400 --> 00:11:54,480 Speaker 3: your mayor for the folks who went out and supported 250 00:11:54,480 --> 00:11:56,480 Speaker 3: you and voted for you and didn't have a negative 251 00:11:56,520 --> 00:11:58,920 Speaker 3: thing to say about you. You've got to be there 252 00:11:58,960 --> 00:12:02,120 Speaker 3: in defense and protect and in service to all of them. 253 00:12:02,760 --> 00:12:05,040 Speaker 3: And this president it's a hard lesson for him to learn. 254 00:12:05,160 --> 00:12:07,079 Speaker 3: He's still not learned it. He's on his second term, 255 00:12:07,080 --> 00:12:10,240 Speaker 3: in his third try, you know, for president, and it's 256 00:12:10,280 --> 00:12:12,560 Speaker 3: not a lisson he's learned. But I also, you know, 257 00:12:13,080 --> 00:12:16,440 Speaker 3: like so many things in Trump's America right now, we've 258 00:12:16,480 --> 00:12:19,560 Speaker 3: had to de sensitize ourselves and lower our expectations for 259 00:12:19,600 --> 00:12:22,600 Speaker 3: what the outcome is going to be. We're at the 260 00:12:22,720 --> 00:12:28,400 Speaker 3: lowest basic, lowest common point of agreement when it comes 261 00:12:28,400 --> 00:12:32,600 Speaker 3: to what to expect from this administration. I appreciated the 262 00:12:32,640 --> 00:12:38,000 Speaker 3: President acknowledging how difficult the loss of both these souls are. 263 00:12:38,600 --> 00:12:40,360 Speaker 3: I don't know how sincere it is, but it was 264 00:12:40,400 --> 00:12:43,160 Speaker 3: important for the President to allow those words to cross 265 00:12:43,200 --> 00:12:45,160 Speaker 3: his lips and for the American people to hear it. 266 00:12:45,200 --> 00:12:47,959 Speaker 3: Whether we believe it fully or not, it's still needed 267 00:12:48,000 --> 00:12:52,240 Speaker 3: to be said. And so that's the most supportive thing 268 00:12:52,280 --> 00:12:53,960 Speaker 3: I can say about you know, those commons. 269 00:12:54,000 --> 00:12:54,679 Speaker 7: I don't even. 270 00:12:57,480 --> 00:13:02,040 Speaker 2: That's the statement say. 271 00:13:02,160 --> 00:13:06,000 Speaker 6: Look, I will just say that I think a little 272 00:13:06,000 --> 00:13:07,800 Speaker 6: bit differently about the fact that he said those words, 273 00:13:07,840 --> 00:13:10,520 Speaker 6: is that means trying to see why A Okay, he 274 00:13:10,600 --> 00:13:13,439 Speaker 6: is trying to cover his ass, and that's what he's 275 00:13:13,440 --> 00:13:15,720 Speaker 6: trying to do. And so there's a little bit in there. 276 00:13:15,800 --> 00:13:17,679 Speaker 6: He sprinkles in there, a tiny bit of humanity, not 277 00:13:17,760 --> 00:13:20,040 Speaker 6: because I think he feels it, but because he knows 278 00:13:20,080 --> 00:13:22,920 Speaker 6: people are watching, and he knows that people are getting 279 00:13:22,960 --> 00:13:24,800 Speaker 6: pissed and they're getting sick and tired of him, and 280 00:13:24,840 --> 00:13:26,800 Speaker 6: we're seeing it more and more across the country. So 281 00:13:26,880 --> 00:13:28,760 Speaker 6: I just look at it as you know what. I 282 00:13:28,760 --> 00:13:31,120 Speaker 6: don't believe him, but I think that that is a 283 00:13:31,160 --> 00:13:35,880 Speaker 6: strong indicator that he knows that his popularity, his approval, 284 00:13:35,920 --> 00:13:37,320 Speaker 6: and everything is declining. 285 00:13:37,640 --> 00:13:40,880 Speaker 1: One thing we see often is when superstars use their 286 00:13:40,880 --> 00:13:43,280 Speaker 1: platform to speak to an issue, sometimes it gets a 287 00:13:43,280 --> 00:13:44,800 Speaker 1: little bit more attention. 288 00:13:44,960 --> 00:13:46,640 Speaker 2: So San Antonio superstar Victor. 289 00:13:46,679 --> 00:13:50,000 Speaker 1: When Biyama Wimby also spoke up about Alex Pretty and 290 00:13:50,040 --> 00:13:54,040 Speaker 1: his own struggle with speaking out period given his immigration 291 00:13:54,120 --> 00:13:55,520 Speaker 1: status in this country, let's roll. 292 00:13:55,440 --> 00:13:58,240 Speaker 9: That pr has tried it. I'm not going to sit 293 00:13:58,320 --> 00:14:03,720 Speaker 9: here and give completely correct you know, I know, uh, 294 00:14:04,400 --> 00:14:06,280 Speaker 9: I mean I'm this every day I wake up and 295 00:14:06,360 --> 00:14:10,800 Speaker 9: see the news and I'm horrified. I think the it's 296 00:14:10,840 --> 00:14:14,839 Speaker 9: crazy that some people might make it seem like or 297 00:14:14,880 --> 00:14:17,520 Speaker 9: make it sound like it's acceptable the murder, like the 298 00:14:17,600 --> 00:14:19,400 Speaker 9: murder of civilians is acceptable, you. 299 00:14:19,320 --> 00:14:22,880 Speaker 5: Know every day. 300 00:14:22,920 --> 00:14:26,280 Speaker 9: I mean, I I read the news and I'm sometimes 301 00:14:26,320 --> 00:14:30,400 Speaker 9: I'm asking very deep questions about my own life. But 302 00:14:30,480 --> 00:14:37,080 Speaker 9: you know, I'm conscious also that saying everything you know 303 00:14:37,160 --> 00:14:38,760 Speaker 9: that's on my mind would have a cost that's too 304 00:14:38,760 --> 00:14:42,280 Speaker 9: great for me right now. So it's a I'd rather 305 00:14:42,400 --> 00:14:44,480 Speaker 9: not get into too many details. Is that kind of 306 00:14:44,960 --> 00:14:47,480 Speaker 9: a big factor in this, that people have that fear 307 00:14:47,880 --> 00:14:51,840 Speaker 9: that if they speak openly about an injustice they see, 308 00:14:51,880 --> 00:14:55,720 Speaker 9: there can be repercussions. Oh for sure, I mean. 309 00:14:57,160 --> 00:14:57,760 Speaker 7: It's terrible. 310 00:14:58,160 --> 00:15:01,280 Speaker 9: It's a and you know, you know, I know, I know, 311 00:15:01,320 --> 00:15:04,640 Speaker 9: I'm I'm a foreigner, you know, I live in this country. No, 312 00:15:04,880 --> 00:15:06,560 Speaker 9: I am concerned for sure. 313 00:15:06,880 --> 00:15:10,760 Speaker 3: Is that part of your hesitance being a foreigner? Does 314 00:15:10,760 --> 00:15:11,520 Speaker 3: that play into. 315 00:15:11,360 --> 00:15:14,800 Speaker 9: Your Oh for sure, for sure. I mean it's uh yeah, 316 00:15:15,760 --> 00:15:20,000 Speaker 9: people speaking their mind, no matter no matter the subject, 317 00:15:20,000 --> 00:15:22,720 Speaker 9: you know, And it's I think it's it definitely takes 318 00:15:22,720 --> 00:15:25,520 Speaker 9: some balls, it itch, and every one of us has 319 00:15:25,560 --> 00:15:27,040 Speaker 9: to decide the price, you know, we're willing to pay. 320 00:15:27,200 --> 00:15:28,720 Speaker 3: And you decided that today. 321 00:15:28,720 --> 00:15:31,280 Speaker 9: You could have said, yeah, I think I think, I 322 00:15:31,320 --> 00:15:34,840 Speaker 9: think that's enough details though for now, you know, if 323 00:15:35,200 --> 00:15:37,560 Speaker 9: privately we can discuss it, maybe later, but not right now. 324 00:15:38,000 --> 00:15:40,320 Speaker 5: Three points and two of them are the same. The 325 00:15:40,320 --> 00:15:42,000 Speaker 5: first is when he first opened his mouth, he said, 326 00:15:42,000 --> 00:15:44,840 Speaker 5: PR tried, they did. That's what he said. That stuck 327 00:15:44,840 --> 00:15:48,360 Speaker 5: out to me. And sometimes I listen to people as 328 00:15:48,360 --> 00:15:50,520 Speaker 5: a lawyer, like I'm about to cross examine them, and 329 00:15:50,560 --> 00:15:53,000 Speaker 5: so things stick out. He said, PR tried. And then 330 00:15:53,040 --> 00:15:57,120 Speaker 5: he went and directly told you that the risk of 331 00:15:57,160 --> 00:16:01,200 Speaker 5: speaking his mind truly outweighed what he could afford at 332 00:16:01,200 --> 00:16:04,240 Speaker 5: this time. So those things were like one A, one 333 00:16:04,280 --> 00:16:06,800 Speaker 5: B for me. And the second thing is where he's from. 334 00:16:06,920 --> 00:16:09,320 Speaker 5: So let's talk about the first. I mean. The reporter 335 00:16:09,400 --> 00:16:11,600 Speaker 5: dug deep and said, yeah, I mean, the president has 336 00:16:11,600 --> 00:16:16,760 Speaker 5: been extremely successful at stifling free speech in this country, 337 00:16:16,880 --> 00:16:19,480 Speaker 5: being a free speech absolutionist. By the way, those who 338 00:16:19,520 --> 00:16:21,680 Speaker 5: are listening and not watching, I'm using air quotes right, 339 00:16:22,080 --> 00:16:25,360 Speaker 5: And it's fascinating to see how they find themselves in 340 00:16:25,400 --> 00:16:27,520 Speaker 5: the mode of Charlie Kirk, who want to be these 341 00:16:27,600 --> 00:16:30,920 Speaker 5: free speech abolitionists, but yet their goal is to stifle 342 00:16:31,240 --> 00:16:34,840 Speaker 5: create fear and get people like Victor Winbiyamba also known 343 00:16:34,840 --> 00:16:37,760 Speaker 5: as Winby to be able to get on and not 344 00:16:37,880 --> 00:16:41,320 Speaker 5: use this platform, kind of contrary to Steve Kerr, who 345 00:16:41,320 --> 00:16:43,720 Speaker 5: says whatever the Steve Kerr wants to say when he 346 00:16:43,760 --> 00:16:46,480 Speaker 5: wants to say it. It also has to do with 347 00:16:46,520 --> 00:16:48,760 Speaker 5: the fact that Steve Kurr and Golden State and has 348 00:16:48,800 --> 00:16:52,560 Speaker 5: a very unique ownership that don't care. And Victor finds 349 00:16:52,640 --> 00:16:55,600 Speaker 5: himself in San Antonio, Texas, right, they might deport his 350 00:16:55,680 --> 00:17:00,440 Speaker 5: ass tomorrow. Okay. The other thing is like Victor's from France, right, 351 00:17:01,440 --> 00:17:03,400 Speaker 5: it just highlights how the rest of the world is 352 00:17:03,440 --> 00:17:07,080 Speaker 5: looking at us. Victor really wanted to say, like, like 353 00:17:07,880 --> 00:17:12,800 Speaker 5: they're killing people in the street using totalitarian therapy, how 354 00:17:12,800 --> 00:17:18,080 Speaker 5: you pronounce it, authoritarian regimes, and y'all voted for this shit, 355 00:17:18,640 --> 00:17:20,880 Speaker 5: like that's what he wanted to say, Like the people 356 00:17:20,880 --> 00:17:23,240 Speaker 5: who come to my games, the people who pay my salary, 357 00:17:23,720 --> 00:17:25,960 Speaker 5: y'all voted for this. And he wanted to be like, 358 00:17:26,040 --> 00:17:28,720 Speaker 5: I don't understand. I don't this is not very French, 359 00:17:28,800 --> 00:17:30,879 Speaker 5: I don't understand it. And that's how the rest of 360 00:17:30,920 --> 00:17:32,320 Speaker 5: the world is looking at us. With this kind of 361 00:17:32,359 --> 00:17:33,440 Speaker 5: a funnlement. 362 00:17:33,400 --> 00:17:36,399 Speaker 1: Well, and to that point, I think it's important for 363 00:17:36,480 --> 00:17:39,399 Speaker 1: us to understand why tensions are so high. Of course, 364 00:17:39,480 --> 00:17:42,440 Speaker 1: even when you have status and you are making millions 365 00:17:42,480 --> 00:17:46,120 Speaker 1: upon millions every year as an NBA player, it's still 366 00:17:46,160 --> 00:17:49,119 Speaker 1: hard to speak up. Apparently, hopefully he will find his courage. 367 00:17:49,160 --> 00:17:51,080 Speaker 1: But I'm grateful for what he did say. But as 368 00:17:51,119 --> 00:17:53,960 Speaker 1: a result of the rising tensions throughout the country and 369 00:17:54,000 --> 00:17:56,800 Speaker 1: the inability of this White House to tone down hateful rhetoric, 370 00:17:57,119 --> 00:18:07,760 Speaker 1: members of Congress have come under attack this past week. 371 00:18:00,160 --> 00:18:14,880 Speaker 1: In Florida, Congressman Maxwell Frost was punched, and just on Tuesday, 372 00:18:14,960 --> 00:18:16,720 Speaker 1: right down the street from where our town hall was 373 00:18:16,760 --> 00:18:20,320 Speaker 1: being held, ilhan Omar, Congressoman Ilhan Omar was subjected to 374 00:18:20,359 --> 00:18:23,399 Speaker 1: an attack by an erratic white man at her own 375 00:18:23,640 --> 00:18:24,440 Speaker 1: town hall event. 376 00:18:24,840 --> 00:18:42,000 Speaker 2: You know, him must resign or face impeachment. I don't know. 377 00:18:42,920 --> 00:18:45,400 Speaker 2: We will continue this. I'm not going to get away, 378 00:18:45,520 --> 00:18:45,920 Speaker 2: an't you. 379 00:18:46,720 --> 00:18:49,359 Speaker 1: The GOP response was it was staged And this is 380 00:18:49,400 --> 00:18:52,040 Speaker 1: what Donald Trump said to Rachel Scott in a phone 381 00:18:52,119 --> 00:18:56,560 Speaker 1: interview on Tuesday night. Rachel says, just spoke to President Trump, 382 00:18:56,600 --> 00:18:58,280 Speaker 1: and we're putting that tweet up for you all as well. 383 00:18:58,760 --> 00:19:01,480 Speaker 1: But for those listening if he had seen the video 384 00:19:01,600 --> 00:19:04,840 Speaker 1: of Representative Omar being attacked and sprayed by a substance. 385 00:19:05,520 --> 00:19:08,320 Speaker 1: His quote, no, I don't think about her. I think 386 00:19:08,359 --> 00:19:11,240 Speaker 1: she's a fraud. I really don't think about that. She 387 00:19:11,440 --> 00:19:17,120 Speaker 1: probably had herself sprayed knowing her end quote. He says 388 00:19:17,119 --> 00:19:20,919 Speaker 1: that he hasn't seen the video and he doesn't have 389 00:19:21,000 --> 00:19:24,560 Speaker 1: to bother And so this, you know, reminds me of 390 00:19:24,600 --> 00:19:26,680 Speaker 1: what he said around January sixth, or what he refused 391 00:19:26,680 --> 00:19:27,520 Speaker 1: to say. 392 00:19:27,440 --> 00:19:28,600 Speaker 2: Around January sixth. 393 00:19:28,600 --> 00:19:31,400 Speaker 1: And in a moment like this where he's talking about 394 00:19:31,400 --> 00:19:34,200 Speaker 1: whether or not Alex Pretty's family or fans, or whether 395 00:19:34,280 --> 00:19:37,160 Speaker 1: or not Renee Good's family are friends, he's still about 396 00:19:37,600 --> 00:19:41,080 Speaker 1: one of Minnesota's representatives, Stokey the flame. 397 00:19:41,600 --> 00:19:44,280 Speaker 6: And I mean, are we really surprised after the response 398 00:19:44,359 --> 00:19:47,040 Speaker 6: or let's say, non response to the assassination of Melissa Hartman. 399 00:19:47,520 --> 00:19:50,000 Speaker 7: It's true we keep seeing this over again. 400 00:19:50,440 --> 00:19:52,280 Speaker 5: That Jesus, we're not right down the street. 401 00:19:52,359 --> 00:19:57,320 Speaker 6: It was, yeah, and you know, it's it's been really 402 00:19:57,440 --> 00:20:02,560 Speaker 6: difficult to impress upon folks. I feel like, especially just 403 00:20:02,640 --> 00:20:05,480 Speaker 6: when I'm when I'm on the hill. I went into 404 00:20:05,560 --> 00:20:12,399 Speaker 6: some of the white male Democratic congressman offices, and I said, hey, 405 00:20:12,600 --> 00:20:16,440 Speaker 6: y'all need to do more because we're seeing our especially 406 00:20:16,440 --> 00:20:21,120 Speaker 6: our black members of Congress. We're seeing women, We're seeing 407 00:20:21,480 --> 00:20:24,920 Speaker 6: other people who don't have your white male privilege being attacked. 408 00:20:24,920 --> 00:20:27,960 Speaker 6: We see Lamonica mcguver facing seventeen years in prison for 409 00:20:28,040 --> 00:20:28,680 Speaker 6: doing her job. 410 00:20:28,720 --> 00:20:30,240 Speaker 7: We've seen now Illhan Omar. 411 00:20:30,160 --> 00:20:34,040 Speaker 6: Being attacked, Maxwell Frost being punched, and by the way, 412 00:20:34,160 --> 00:20:37,160 Speaker 6: while while he was being punched, the man was yelling 413 00:20:37,280 --> 00:20:40,520 Speaker 6: racial slurs. There's no question about the fact that that 414 00:20:40,560 --> 00:20:41,840 Speaker 6: was a racially motivated attack. 415 00:20:41,880 --> 00:20:44,760 Speaker 5: Candy, tell me, like exactly, because I mean, like with 416 00:20:44,880 --> 00:20:48,000 Speaker 5: ill Omar, you can see it.

He was at a sundance, festive sundance. 421 00:21:01,440 --> 00:21:02,800 Speaker 2: I didn't realize it was at sundance. 422 00:21:02,880 --> 00:21:03,800 Speaker 5: They done that. 423 00:21:04,400 --> 00:21:08,880 Speaker 2: Yeah, and no, it's in, it's in. It's in Salt Lakes. 424 00:21:08,920 --> 00:21:10,800 Speaker 2: It's in right outside of Salt Lake City. 425 00:21:10,880 --> 00:21:12,680 Speaker 7: Yeah, it was a sundance and a man. 426 00:21:12,720 --> 00:21:14,280 Speaker 2: But it's a very progressive space. 427 00:21:14,320 --> 00:21:17,399 Speaker 6: Generally exactly, and this man ran up to him and 428 00:21:17,520 --> 00:21:20,520 Speaker 6: was yelling racial slurs at him and punched him and 429 00:21:20,560 --> 00:21:23,640 Speaker 6: then ran and the guy got arrested. 430 00:21:23,720 --> 00:21:26,440 Speaker 7: They did end up getting him and arresting him. But yeah, 431 00:21:26,480 --> 00:21:27,600 Speaker 7: it happened at Sundance. 432 00:21:27,720 --> 00:21:28,400 Speaker 2: That's insane. 433 00:21:28,920 --> 00:21:33,800 Speaker 5: Well to represent omar one, you didn't even Okay, she did. 434 00:21:33,800 --> 00:21:35,240 Speaker 5: He pronounced the first name because you don'tt to. 435 00:21:39,440 --> 00:21:43,560 Speaker 3: Yeah, we get that. But even despite what appeared to 436 00:21:43,600 --> 00:21:45,919 Speaker 3: be security sort of attempting to usher her off and 437 00:21:46,000 --> 00:21:49,439 Speaker 3: sort of bring this thing to a close, she, like 438 00:21:49,480 --> 00:21:56,080 Speaker 3: a g pivoted that she had her fisto, she was 439 00:21:56,080 --> 00:21:58,920 Speaker 3: her own security and no offense to those who were 440 00:21:58,920 --> 00:22:01,800 Speaker 3: really securing her. But in truth, the woman stood up 441 00:22:01,880 --> 00:22:04,919 Speaker 3: and she was prepared to defend herself. But moreover, she 442 00:22:04,960 --> 00:22:09,520 Speaker 3: didn't allow this event, this important public event where citizens 443 00:22:09,560 --> 00:22:11,800 Speaker 3: get access to their government to ask questions and to 444 00:22:11,800 --> 00:22:14,080 Speaker 3: push her and to hold her accountable and to encourage her. 445 00:22:14,320 --> 00:22:16,320 Speaker 3: She wanted to keep it going, and she did, in 446 00:22:16,320 --> 00:22:19,800 Speaker 3: fact keep it going. But Trump's comments on that, I mean, 447 00:22:19,800 --> 00:22:24,800 Speaker 3: he's an egotist, a megalomaniac. He doesn't have And again 448 00:22:24,840 --> 00:22:27,280 Speaker 3: we keep saying we need a mental health professional to 449 00:22:27,400 --> 00:22:30,240 Speaker 3: aid us. But it is. It is absolutely true. I 450 00:22:30,280 --> 00:22:35,160 Speaker 3: think there is something debilitating about this condition that does 451 00:22:35,200 --> 00:22:39,160 Speaker 3: not allow your horizon to look beyond your own sunset. Yeah, 452 00:22:39,400 --> 00:22:42,119 Speaker 3: I mean, you'll, you'll, you know, you're coming up in 453 00:22:42,160 --> 00:22:46,600 Speaker 3: the morning, you're going down at night. Everything revolved around you. 454 00:22:47,520 --> 00:22:50,520 Speaker 3: And maybe he's capable. I don't know. I've just never 455 00:22:50,560 --> 00:22:53,320 Speaker 3: seen it. I've never seen it from him. And at 456 00:22:53,320 --> 00:22:55,160 Speaker 3: some point one of y'all are gonna seend in a video, 457 00:22:55,480 --> 00:22:57,399 Speaker 3: one of you health professionals out there, and we're going 458 00:22:57,440 --> 00:23:00,639 Speaker 3: to get to show it on these on this podcast. 459 00:23:00,920 --> 00:23:03,080 Speaker 3: That will tell us a little bit more about what 460 00:23:03,160 --> 00:23:06,240 Speaker 3: this condition is. It's still not an excuse because he 461 00:23:06,240 --> 00:23:09,119 Speaker 3: shouldn't be president under such conditions. The people should have 462 00:23:09,200 --> 00:23:12,520 Speaker 3: sessed this out before this point. Yet they saw it, 463 00:23:12,960 --> 00:23:15,679 Speaker 3: they are okay with it, they approved it, and then 464 00:23:15,720 --> 00:23:18,280 Speaker 3: they send it right back a second time. 465 00:23:18,560 --> 00:23:20,080 Speaker 7: So we kind of just say real quick that. 466 00:23:20,480 --> 00:23:23,760 Speaker 6: Also, I think it's amazing that Representative Ilhan Omar didn't 467 00:23:24,080 --> 00:23:26,000 Speaker 6: like stick a bandate on her face and make a 468 00:23:26,320 --> 00:23:32,240 Speaker 6: good deal about the time, like I just you know, 469 00:23:32,400 --> 00:23:34,119 Speaker 6: I just want to point out the. 470 00:23:35,800 --> 00:23:39,199 Speaker 5: I would have fallen down ambulance taken me out. I 471 00:23:39,200 --> 00:23:41,119 Speaker 5: would have called my wife baby, this might be the 472 00:23:41,200 --> 00:23:41,640 Speaker 5: big one. 473 00:23:41,800 --> 00:23:47,600 Speaker 3: I don't know, flopping in the spirit of Minnesota right now. 474 00:23:47,800 --> 00:23:50,040 Speaker 3: These are the people who take licks, and they keep taking, 475 00:23:50,440 --> 00:23:53,600 Speaker 3: keep showing up, they keep standing, they keep fighting. And 476 00:23:54,040 --> 00:23:55,800 Speaker 3: her response is represented of that. 477 00:23:55,800 --> 00:23:58,199 Speaker 1: And zero degree, as Bakari would say, So we do 478 00:23:58,320 --> 00:24:00,760 Speaker 1: have to ask ourselves how we claim our power in 479 00:24:00,800 --> 00:24:03,760 Speaker 1: the face of authoritarianism and teer being brought to the 480 00:24:04,480 --> 00:24:07,080 Speaker 1: front doors of Americans all over the country. It may 481 00:24:07,119 --> 00:24:11,239 Speaker 1: not be replacing Border Patrol Commander Bavino for borders, our 482 00:24:11,400 --> 00:24:14,719 Speaker 1: Tom Homan, but could it be another fight by Congress 483 00:24:15,000 --> 00:24:19,399 Speaker 1: to force yet another shutdown, but this time for ice funding. Andrew, 484 00:24:19,480 --> 00:24:22,680 Speaker 1: you say, not likely. Why is that they got funded anyway? 485 00:24:23,119 --> 00:24:23,359 Speaker 5: Yeah? 486 00:24:23,440 --> 00:24:26,560 Speaker 3: I mean the bacarty and I yesterday was sort of 487 00:24:26,560 --> 00:24:29,359 Speaker 3: trying to get to the root of what a government 488 00:24:29,400 --> 00:24:31,959 Speaker 3: shutdown might look like. And just you know, before our 489 00:24:32,000 --> 00:24:36,080 Speaker 3: listeners and viewers, the Democrats have threatened the leader of 490 00:24:36,119 --> 00:24:38,440 Speaker 3: the Senate, Chuck Schumer. On the Democratics side, of course, 491 00:24:39,040 --> 00:24:42,720 Speaker 3: have threatened to withhold the Democratic votes that would be 492 00:24:42,840 --> 00:24:46,480 Speaker 3: necessary to cross the sixty votes that are required to 493 00:24:46,480 --> 00:24:51,199 Speaker 3: implement these five funding bills. You've got members of the 494 00:24:51,200 --> 00:24:55,439 Speaker 3: Democratic Party in the US Senate who hate shutdowns just 495 00:24:55,840 --> 00:25:00,199 Speaker 3: outright don't believe in them. But I believe the the 496 00:25:00,240 --> 00:25:05,000 Speaker 3: deaths of well, very specifically Alex pretty this past weekend 497 00:25:05,600 --> 00:25:07,119 Speaker 3: put a number of them over the edge to the 498 00:25:07,160 --> 00:25:11,600 Speaker 3: point where they said, we're not supporting a funding resolution 499 00:25:11,960 --> 00:25:15,600 Speaker 3: for ICE. Now, Bacari helped me if I go off 500 00:25:15,640 --> 00:25:18,320 Speaker 3: track here, but my understanding is is that even if 501 00:25:18,320 --> 00:25:21,959 Speaker 3: the Senate were to withhold the support for the funding 502 00:25:21,960 --> 00:25:24,720 Speaker 3: bill for Ice, that because of the passages of the 503 00:25:24,800 --> 00:25:28,600 Speaker 3: quote big beautiful bill, they will still get the seven 504 00:25:28,680 --> 00:25:32,240 Speaker 3: three million that they are in line to receive, which 505 00:25:32,840 --> 00:25:36,600 Speaker 3: represents three times what their previous budget was. 506 00:25:36,880 --> 00:25:38,879 Speaker 5: Yeah. So, I mean a shutdown only prevents them from 507 00:25:38,880 --> 00:25:41,159 Speaker 5: getting about ten billion dollars, which is what they were 508 00:25:41,160 --> 00:25:46,159 Speaker 5: budgeted for, which doesn't stop any operations from going forward. 509 00:25:46,400 --> 00:25:48,600 Speaker 5: But what it does do is that it stops the 510 00:25:48,640 --> 00:25:52,159 Speaker 5: other functions of the Department of Homeland Security, you know 511 00:25:52,200 --> 00:25:55,000 Speaker 5: they have, and it particularly now when you're in the 512 00:25:55,040 --> 00:25:58,360 Speaker 5: middle of winter storms, et cetera. I just don't know 513 00:25:58,480 --> 00:26:02,920 Speaker 5: how advised that is. There's also something else that we 514 00:26:02,960 --> 00:26:04,919 Speaker 5: haven't touched on yet, and I know we haven't been 515 00:26:04,920 --> 00:26:09,080 Speaker 5: here but like almost thirty minutes. But it's fascinating to 516 00:26:09,240 --> 00:26:12,760 Speaker 5: me two things, how the country reacts when they're able 517 00:26:12,800 --> 00:26:15,800 Speaker 5: to see violence everything. For me, I see through a 518 00:26:15,840 --> 00:26:18,119 Speaker 5: cultural civil rights land. So it reminds me of like 519 00:26:18,600 --> 00:26:22,040 Speaker 5: nineteen the Evan Pet's Bridge, right, nineteen sixties. Yeah, bloody Sunday, 520 00:26:22,040 --> 00:26:23,800 Speaker 5: because white folk outside of the South were able to 521 00:26:23,840 --> 00:26:26,960 Speaker 5: see what happened to black folk on that bridge. But 522 00:26:27,000 --> 00:26:30,160 Speaker 5: it also begs the question that we always ask ourselves, 523 00:26:30,440 --> 00:26:35,280 Speaker 5: like what happens when they start killing white folk? Like 524 00:26:35,480 --> 00:26:39,520 Speaker 5: that is a looming question amongst most people in this 525 00:26:39,560 --> 00:26:42,959 Speaker 5: country that don't find themselves to be white, And like 526 00:26:43,040 --> 00:26:45,280 Speaker 5: we're seeing that now we're getting the answers to that. 527 00:26:45,359 --> 00:26:48,200 Speaker 5: I mean, Donald Trump, who we never thought would fold 528 00:26:48,320 --> 00:26:51,080 Speaker 5: or bend, is talking about pulling ice out of Minnesota 529 00:26:51,119 --> 00:26:53,119 Speaker 5: because a white woman and a white man were. 530 00:26:53,040 --> 00:26:55,680 Speaker 3: Killed more specifically the white man, right. 531 00:26:55,560 --> 00:26:59,520 Speaker 5: No, more specifically the white male correct. Correct. But you 532 00:26:59,560 --> 00:27:02,040 Speaker 5: see how now you know? And that's why I've always 533 00:27:02,080 --> 00:27:03,880 Speaker 5: said that the country's never going to change unless white 534 00:27:03,880 --> 00:27:06,800 Speaker 5: male evangelicals want it to mean it just it will 535 00:27:06,800 --> 00:27:11,000 Speaker 5: never truly change directions until But it's almost like parallel 536 00:27:11,040 --> 00:27:13,480 Speaker 5: parking of submarine. The cost for our change and we're 537 00:27:13,520 --> 00:27:16,960 Speaker 5: seeing is so high. But what happens when you when 538 00:27:16,960 --> 00:27:19,440 Speaker 5: the country sees a white man gunned down by law 539 00:27:19,480 --> 00:27:22,879 Speaker 5: enforcement compared to when a country sees a black man 540 00:27:22,920 --> 00:27:25,639 Speaker 5: gunned down by law enforcement? And we're seeing that reaction 541 00:27:25,760 --> 00:27:28,119 Speaker 5: play out. And I just think that's a fascinating question 542 00:27:28,680 --> 00:27:31,399 Speaker 5: that we're able to at least have some data to 543 00:27:31,440 --> 00:27:31,959 Speaker 5: tangle with. 544 00:27:32,000 --> 00:27:33,480 Speaker 2: Now we have. 545 00:27:34,160 --> 00:27:38,640 Speaker 1: Another white man, well he's black, especially because we might 546 00:27:38,680 --> 00:27:40,080 Speaker 1: have the old Kanye back. 547 00:27:40,880 --> 00:27:42,320 Speaker 2: Kanye West took out. 548 00:27:42,600 --> 00:27:45,280 Speaker 5: He went around and around. I was like, Oh, I 549 00:27:45,320 --> 00:27:47,280 Speaker 5: was like, where we go? They what? 550 00:27:47,520 --> 00:27:48,920 Speaker 2: No. 551 00:27:50,440 --> 00:27:53,879 Speaker 1: Kanye West took out a full page ad in the 552 00:27:53,920 --> 00:27:58,320 Speaker 1: Wall Street Journal apologizing for past anti Semitic and anti 553 00:27:58,480 --> 00:28:02,520 Speaker 1: black rhetoric. He blamed his behavior on neurological damage dimman 554 00:28:02,600 --> 00:28:04,959 Speaker 1: from his traumatic two thousand and two car accident, and 555 00:28:05,000 --> 00:28:07,760 Speaker 1: he says, quote, twenty five years ago, I was in 556 00:28:07,800 --> 00:28:10,840 Speaker 1: a car accident that broke my jaw. They if y'all 557 00:28:10,840 --> 00:28:13,680 Speaker 1: know that it caused injury to the right frontal lobe 558 00:28:13,680 --> 00:28:16,320 Speaker 1: of my brain. At the time, the focus was on 559 00:28:16,359 --> 00:28:18,760 Speaker 1: the visible damage, the fracture, the swelling, and the. 560 00:28:18,720 --> 00:28:20,160 Speaker 2: Immediate physical trauma. 561 00:28:20,280 --> 00:28:24,160 Speaker 1: The deeper injury, the one inside my skull, went unnoticed. 562 00:28:24,480 --> 00:28:27,200 Speaker 2: It went unnoticed for us, friend, it was not unnoticed. 563 00:28:27,200 --> 00:28:27,480 Speaker 1: Fuss. 564 00:28:27,520 --> 00:28:30,200 Speaker 3: Can we talk about the venue though for this journal? 565 00:28:30,280 --> 00:28:31,280 Speaker 2: Oh, it's all very clear. 566 00:28:31,280 --> 00:28:34,840 Speaker 6: Way, Yeah, that was us and who Yeah, this says 567 00:28:35,240 --> 00:28:37,840 Speaker 6: a first of all, Kanye as a as a former 568 00:28:37,920 --> 00:28:40,280 Speaker 6: big Kanye fan, been to your shows, you know, all 569 00:28:40,320 --> 00:28:40,640 Speaker 6: the good. 570 00:28:40,560 --> 00:28:41,400 Speaker 7: Stuff go to hell. 571 00:28:41,480 --> 00:28:45,239 Speaker 6: Sorry, I don't want your apology because I will never 572 00:28:45,280 --> 00:28:48,000 Speaker 6: forget this.

And you know the bipolar disorder that 601 00:30:21,480 --> 00:30:23,720 Speaker 5: we know he has, the car accident that he's been through. 602 00:30:24,160 --> 00:30:27,080 Speaker 5: I'm not excusing anything because he's inflicted so much pain. 603 00:30:27,720 --> 00:30:30,640 Speaker 5: I mean, he's been a wrecking ball to various cultures, 604 00:30:30,760 --> 00:30:35,480 Speaker 5: right and starting with his own. But I'm I am. 605 00:30:36,040 --> 00:30:40,200 Speaker 5: I am someone who if they do the work, I 606 00:30:40,320 --> 00:30:43,800 Speaker 5: believe that there should be a path that is adorned 607 00:30:43,800 --> 00:30:46,360 Speaker 5: by grace that gets you back there. But if you 608 00:30:46,520 --> 00:30:48,800 Speaker 5: just if you are just putting apologies in the Wall 609 00:30:48,800 --> 00:30:49,400 Speaker 5: Street journal. 610 00:30:50,120 --> 00:30:54,520 Speaker 6: That ain't It matters. 611 00:30:53,000 --> 00:30:56,120 Speaker 3: Where you start, though, right like it matters. It matters 612 00:30:56,160 --> 00:30:59,080 Speaker 3: to me that slavery was a choice. Was that Howard 613 00:30:59,160 --> 00:31:05,840 Speaker 3: University where he knew that his at CMC, he said 614 00:31:05,840 --> 00:31:09,920 Speaker 3: it there, but he also on the campus shortly after, 615 00:31:10,480 --> 00:31:13,080 Speaker 3: on the campus of Howard because the students were getting 616 00:31:13,120 --> 00:31:16,680 Speaker 3: back at him. He was, you know, perched above the 617 00:31:16,720 --> 00:31:19,200 Speaker 3: students and they were, you know, having it out with him. 618 00:31:19,200 --> 00:31:23,160 Speaker 3: But but essentially his message got to its intended audience. 619 00:31:23,920 --> 00:31:26,520 Speaker 3: In this case, I have to question the forum very 620 00:31:26,640 --> 00:31:30,400 Speaker 3: very seriously. I'm not joking about that, because that day 621 00:31:30,520 --> 00:31:33,440 Speaker 3: it matters where you go to deliver that message, if 622 00:31:33,480 --> 00:31:37,040 Speaker 3: you're sincere about it, if it's a pr stunt, if 623 00:31:37,080 --> 00:31:39,040 Speaker 3: you're if you want the Jewish community to read it, 624 00:31:39,120 --> 00:31:42,720 Speaker 3: and and and financial times wasn't available, and so you chose. 625 00:31:42,840 --> 00:31:44,920 Speaker 3: You know, It's just I have questions about that. But 626 00:31:44,960 --> 00:31:46,680 Speaker 3: the good thing, his redemption is not in my hands 627 00:31:46,760 --> 00:31:50,480 Speaker 3: or yours anymore. Right, there's enough forum for that. But 628 00:31:50,480 --> 00:31:54,560 Speaker 3: but his work absolutely going forward, it just needs to 629 00:31:54,600 --> 00:31:58,080 Speaker 3: be and very clear to the rest of us what 630 00:31:58,080 --> 00:31:58,840 Speaker 3: you're meaning to do. 631 00:31:58,960 --> 00:32:00,920 Speaker 7: He got a lot of work to do, he does. 632 00:32:01,080 --> 00:32:03,160 Speaker 1: And and since so do we and in not a 633 00:32:03,160 --> 00:32:05,040 Speaker 1: lot of times, Kanye, that's all the time you get 634 00:32:05,080 --> 00:32:05,880 Speaker 1: on this podcast. 635 00:32:05,960 --> 00:32:07,040 Speaker 2: In the Trump era, you. 636 00:32:06,960 --> 00:32:08,240 Speaker 5: Can join the podcast when. 637 00:32:09,720 --> 00:32:11,720 Speaker 2: We're gonna have to do that.

For our deeper dive today, 649 00:32:44,880 --> 00:32:48,320 Speaker 1: we're gonna talk a lot about Alex Preddy, the Second Amendment, 650 00:32:48,760 --> 00:32:51,760 Speaker 1: the conversation around him being armed, and how they've weaponized it. 651 00:32:56,880 --> 00:32:58,360 Speaker 7: Nobody knows. 652 00:33:00,200 --> 00:33:02,800 Speaker 1: Let's take a moment to talk about what the White 653 00:33:02,800 --> 00:33:06,400 Speaker 1: House and CBP first had to say about Alex pretty 654 00:33:06,480 --> 00:33:08,840 Speaker 1: versus what they are saying now in part, in large 655 00:33:08,840 --> 00:33:11,400 Speaker 1: part because of what the community is saying about who 656 00:33:11,440 --> 00:33:14,920 Speaker 1: this man was. And so I want to start here 657 00:33:15,040 --> 00:33:19,920 Speaker 1: first with Border Patrol commander who's been deported from Minnesota, 658 00:33:20,120 --> 00:33:23,719 Speaker 1: the Vino who blames Alex Pretty for his own murder. 659 00:33:24,840 --> 00:33:27,720 Speaker 10: It just it sort of feels like we're in the 660 00:33:27,800 --> 00:33:30,920 Speaker 10: upside down where we have law enforcement and conservatives who 661 00:33:30,960 --> 00:33:34,960 Speaker 10: are very pro Second Amendment saying the problem was that 662 00:33:35,000 --> 00:33:36,880 Speaker 10: he had a gun legally. 663 00:33:37,520 --> 00:33:40,200 Speaker 11: No, the problem is, as I said several times now, 664 00:33:40,240 --> 00:33:43,400 Speaker 11: is he injected himself. He put himself or he did 665 00:33:43,440 --> 00:33:47,120 Speaker 11: not need to be. He put himself in and put 666 00:33:47,240 --> 00:33:50,920 Speaker 11: law enforcement officers in jeopardy through his actions. These were 667 00:33:50,960 --> 00:33:54,320 Speaker 11: his actions, not law enforcement officers action. We had to 668 00:33:54,360 --> 00:33:58,680 Speaker 11: react to an individual that came there for a specific reason. 669 00:33:59,600 --> 00:34:04,040 Speaker 3: I want, can we just because there lies? It really 670 00:34:04,440 --> 00:34:07,720 Speaker 3: has been the bane of my existence watching coverage over 671 00:34:07,760 --> 00:34:11,040 Speaker 3: this last several weeks, that almost every story began with 672 00:34:11,280 --> 00:34:15,480 Speaker 3: the official statement of the government, the White Houses statement, 673 00:34:15,520 --> 00:34:19,040 Speaker 3: which any journalists out there could see with their own 674 00:34:19,080 --> 00:34:21,359 Speaker 3: eyes was a lie. I mean, it's not a it's 675 00:34:21,360 --> 00:34:24,360 Speaker 3: not a variation, a deviation from the facts. It's not 676 00:34:26,360 --> 00:34:29,640 Speaker 3: a reasonable set of interpretations. These people went out and 677 00:34:29,680 --> 00:34:33,560 Speaker 3: they lied. So what he is saying, mister Pretty did 678 00:34:33,560 --> 00:34:36,239 Speaker 3: to put himself between law enforcement. What he did was 679 00:34:36,640 --> 00:34:39,279 Speaker 3: is he extended his hand to help a woman up 680 00:34:39,680 --> 00:34:43,440 Speaker 3: who ice agents were assaulting all because she had her 681 00:34:43,480 --> 00:34:46,640 Speaker 3: phone camera phone out recording and documenting what was happening there. 682 00:34:47,000 --> 00:34:50,359 Speaker 3: He went to help her up, Are you okay? And 683 00:34:50,400 --> 00:34:54,880 Speaker 3: then they aggressed upon him, right that that's that's what happened, 684 00:34:54,880 --> 00:34:59,879 Speaker 3: that's what we saw. And mister Bungee, you know, Bunge, 685 00:35:00,080 --> 00:35:06,960 Speaker 3: you know, whichever, mister racist in chief completely went out 686 00:35:07,000 --> 00:35:10,280 Speaker 3: in front of the national press score any lie about 687 00:35:10,280 --> 00:35:11,959 Speaker 3: what all of us saw with our own eyes. 688 00:35:12,280 --> 00:35:14,760 Speaker 5: But to add even more context to that, it's important 689 00:35:14,800 --> 00:35:17,720 Speaker 5: to note. And that's why whenever you look at these things, 690 00:35:17,760 --> 00:35:22,200 Speaker 5: you cannot be reactionary, because context matters. Not only did 691 00:35:22,200 --> 00:35:25,280 Speaker 5: he protect a woman who was being assaulted, indoor, pepper sprayed, 692 00:35:25,360 --> 00:35:29,200 Speaker 5: or whatever that fact may be, mister Pretti was also 693 00:35:29,719 --> 00:35:33,080 Speaker 5: a nurse at the Veterans Hospital. And if you add 694 00:35:33,120 --> 00:35:35,360 Speaker 5: that context to it, when you see someone that is 695 00:35:35,360 --> 00:35:38,000 Speaker 5: in harm's way and you're a medical professional, you're more 696 00:35:38,040 --> 00:35:42,640 Speaker 5: inclined to prevent whatever danger they're going through from exacerbating, right, 697 00:35:43,360 --> 00:35:48,280 Speaker 5: And so all of that context matters. You get into 698 00:35:48,400 --> 00:35:51,080 Speaker 5: this question about the Second Amendment and you have these 699 00:35:51,120 --> 00:35:54,400 Speaker 5: Second Amendment absolutionists. Again that word I'm using it a 700 00:35:54,440 --> 00:35:59,400 Speaker 5: lot today. But we've learned through our experience that the 701 00:35:59,440 --> 00:36:03,400 Speaker 5: constitutional amendments that we hold to be true don't apply 702 00:36:03,480 --> 00:36:06,479 Speaker 5: equally at all at all, I mean, And the best 703 00:36:06,520 --> 00:36:09,239 Speaker 5: example that I can give you is there too. Is 704 00:36:09,280 --> 00:36:12,560 Speaker 5: one is Jacob Blake, who not far away from here, 705 00:36:12,640 --> 00:36:15,919 Speaker 5: was gunned down in Milwaukee. And then you also had 706 00:36:16,920 --> 00:36:21,400 Speaker 5: cal Rittenhouse, who was underage, who illegally possessed a weapon. 707 00:36:21,600 --> 00:36:24,839 Speaker 5: And the only weapon that the quote unquote aggressor had 708 00:36:24,960 --> 00:36:29,200 Speaker 5: was a skateboard. Right, And so you just see the 709 00:36:29,320 --> 00:36:32,160 Speaker 5: juxtaposition of the way the Second Amendment is applied to 710 00:36:32,239 --> 00:36:36,719 Speaker 5: different people. And the tragedy is that you have these 711 00:36:36,760 --> 00:36:39,000 Speaker 5: forty seven hour men. And that's not a good thing. 712 00:36:39,520 --> 00:36:41,279 Speaker 5: When I call you a forty seven hour man, that 713 00:36:41,320 --> 00:36:43,560 Speaker 5: means that ain't no that ain't that ain't in the bed. 714 00:36:43,880 --> 00:36:46,200 Speaker 5: That is you ain't got no training. Right, They got 715 00:36:46,239 --> 00:36:48,160 Speaker 5: forty seven hours of training. They out there trying to 716 00:36:48,200 --> 00:36:51,000 Speaker 5: deal with folks. You saw his best seven days forty 717 00:36:51,000 --> 00:36:53,560 Speaker 5: seven days excuse me, forty seven day man that they 718 00:36:53,840 --> 00:36:55,520 Speaker 5: they got forty seven days of training. And you can 719 00:36:55,600 --> 00:36:57,680 Speaker 5: see it, I mean, you can see that the way 720 00:36:58,280 --> 00:37:01,000 Speaker 5: that they engaged this man, weapon or not he had 721 00:37:01,000 --> 00:37:03,719 Speaker 5: every right to have that weapon on him, every right. 722 00:37:03,960 --> 00:37:06,600 Speaker 6: And I also want to just I know you mentioned 723 00:37:06,680 --> 00:37:08,680 Speaker 6: Jacob Blake, but I also thought of Filando cast still 724 00:37:08,800 --> 00:37:11,560 Speaker 6: sure and I'm thinking, you know, he was pulled over, yep, 725 00:37:11,960 --> 00:37:16,160 Speaker 6: said Hi, I have my gun. I'm a licensed gun carrier. 726 00:37:17,160 --> 00:37:18,080 Speaker 7: And he was shot and. 727 00:37:18,080 --> 00:37:19,480 Speaker 5: Killed, murdered, murdered. 728 00:37:19,560 --> 00:37:22,560 Speaker 3: And then at the time, similarly, the NRA didn't really 729 00:37:22,600 --> 00:37:29,080 Speaker 3: statements after so many of these situations where black men 730 00:37:29,160 --> 00:37:32,240 Speaker 3: have been legally armed or at least declared their weapons, 731 00:37:32,920 --> 00:37:36,600 Speaker 3: and no statement of support. Now this, unfortunately, I mean, 732 00:37:36,800 --> 00:37:40,200 Speaker 3: we saw an exception, right the gun Caucus of this 733 00:37:40,320 --> 00:37:42,440 Speaker 3: state came out with a statement. 734 00:37:43,440 --> 00:37:44,160 Speaker 5: The NRA. 735 00:37:45,480 --> 00:37:48,840 Speaker 3: Came out supposedly with a statement basically saying, you know, 736 00:37:48,920 --> 00:37:51,560 Speaker 3: the government has it wrong that being a law abidying 737 00:37:51,640 --> 00:37:56,000 Speaker 3: gun carrying, concealed permit, weapon owning person is not a 738 00:37:56,040 --> 00:37:56,719 Speaker 3: license to kill. 739 00:37:56,800 --> 00:37:58,040 Speaker 7: It's not a license to kill. 740 00:37:58,080 --> 00:38:00,919 Speaker 6: And it keeps happening so often that we don't see, 741 00:38:00,960 --> 00:38:02,600 Speaker 6: as you said, like the stories uplifted. 742 00:38:02,320 --> 00:38:02,759 Speaker 7: A black man. 743 00:38:02,800 --> 00:38:06,160 Speaker 6: How many of y'all know about Steven Aeskew. He was 744 00:38:06,239 --> 00:38:09,040 Speaker 6: murdered in Memphis. So this was I believe twenty sixteen. 745 00:38:09,040 --> 00:38:10,800 Speaker 6: I think it was when I had just started law school, 746 00:38:11,000 --> 00:38:12,720 Speaker 6: and not a lot of people know about this case. 747 00:38:12,960 --> 00:38:16,160 Speaker 6: But he had parked his car at his girlfriend's apartment 748 00:38:16,800 --> 00:38:19,480 Speaker 6: and he had fallen asleep waiting on her to come home, 749 00:38:19,960 --> 00:38:21,960 Speaker 6: and police came to look at the car because they 750 00:38:22,000 --> 00:38:24,920 Speaker 6: thought it was suspicious, saw his gun that he had 751 00:38:24,960 --> 00:38:27,920 Speaker 6: a license to carry in the passenger seat, and just 752 00:38:28,000 --> 00:38:31,560 Speaker 6: started shooting at him. They startled him awake, and then 753 00:38:31,560 --> 00:38:34,680 Speaker 6: they shot into the car and killed him. And there 754 00:38:34,719 --> 00:38:38,520 Speaker 6: was never any justice. And there's stories like this all 755 00:38:38,560 --> 00:38:42,040 Speaker 6: over the country that we don't hear unless you know, 756 00:38:42,160 --> 00:38:44,320 Speaker 6: you live in the community or you heard it from somebody. 757 00:38:44,360 --> 00:38:47,000 Speaker 6: And I also just want to touch on real quick 758 00:38:47,040 --> 00:38:49,080 Speaker 6: what you said about the forty seven days of training 759 00:38:49,080 --> 00:38:50,720 Speaker 6: that I think is really key for people to understand. 760 00:38:50,760 --> 00:38:53,480 Speaker 6: I'm saying this as a former federal employee. I want 761 00:38:53,480 --> 00:38:55,880 Speaker 6: to remind you all that these ice agents, Customs and 762 00:38:55,920 --> 00:38:59,360 Speaker 6: Border pat all these are federal employees. Okay, these people 763 00:38:59,400 --> 00:39:02,680 Speaker 6: have no suit security clearance. I want to make that 764 00:39:02,880 --> 00:39:06,040 Speaker 6: very clear. These people who have just been hired have 765 00:39:06,120 --> 00:39:11,160 Speaker 6: no security clearance. These people have not been thoroughly vetted. 766 00:39:11,560 --> 00:39:14,160 Speaker 6: They have fired so many people in the federal government 767 00:39:14,360 --> 00:39:18,120 Speaker 6: that includes federal investigators, and even before we had this shortage, 768 00:39:18,360 --> 00:39:21,000 Speaker 6: it would take six months to one year to actually 769 00:39:21,040 --> 00:39:23,880 Speaker 6: get your investigation and clearance done. I know because I 770 00:39:23,920 --> 00:39:26,000 Speaker 6: worked in my position for six months before a federal 771 00:39:26,040 --> 00:39:29,480 Speaker 6: investigator did my interview and gave me my security clearance. 772 00:39:30,040 --> 00:39:32,520 Speaker 6: It is a long wait, but the federal government has 773 00:39:32,600 --> 00:39:35,760 Speaker 6: discretion to allow federal employees to get into these roles 774 00:39:36,280 --> 00:39:40,560 Speaker 6: prior to getting their full security clearance. I need more 775 00:39:40,560 --> 00:39:42,680 Speaker 6: and more people to really know about this and how 776 00:39:42,719 --> 00:39:43,800 Speaker 6: this works in the federal government. 777 00:39:43,840 --> 00:39:46,600 Speaker 5: These people are having you tell me what is the 778 00:39:46,640 --> 00:39:48,920 Speaker 5: difference between having a security clearance and not. 779 00:39:49,200 --> 00:39:52,320 Speaker 6: So a security clearance require going through your entire life. 780 00:39:52,760 --> 00:39:54,720 Speaker 6: They knock on the doors of your friends and family 781 00:39:54,760 --> 00:39:56,839 Speaker 6: and ask about you to make sure you're legit. They 782 00:39:56,840 --> 00:39:59,440 Speaker 6: were knocking on the doors of all of my references. 783 00:40:00,160 --> 00:40:02,920 Speaker 6: People get emails about me every past employer, not just 784 00:40:02,960 --> 00:40:05,480 Speaker 6: a simple background check, but to make sure that you 785 00:40:05,560 --> 00:40:07,319 Speaker 6: actually have the experience you say you do. I mean, 786 00:40:07,360 --> 00:40:10,319 Speaker 6: they had me explain why I didn't pay a three 787 00:40:10,400 --> 00:40:12,680 Speaker 6: hundred dollars Macy's credit card bill when I was nineteen 788 00:40:12,760 --> 00:40:14,360 Speaker 6: years old and the card got closed, you know, And 789 00:40:14,400 --> 00:40:16,680 Speaker 6: I was twenty seven, you know going in this job. 790 00:40:17,080 --> 00:40:17,960 Speaker 7: They look into everything. 791 00:40:18,000 --> 00:40:20,120 Speaker 6: And mind you, I didn't have a top secret or 792 00:40:20,120 --> 00:40:22,360 Speaker 6: secret security clearance. I didn't have a big high level. 793 00:40:22,760 --> 00:40:26,440 Speaker 6: I was on the lower level. But they're not doing this. 794 00:40:26,600 --> 00:40:28,279 Speaker 6: I know they're not because I know they don't have 795 00:40:28,280 --> 00:40:29,719 Speaker 6: the resources to do it. And I know what the 796 00:40:29,719 --> 00:40:32,680 Speaker 6: timeline looked like before Trump came in indulged. 797 00:40:32,280 --> 00:40:35,040 Speaker 3: Everything, and they didn't know that January sixth. People have 798 00:40:35,160 --> 00:40:37,319 Speaker 3: been high. I mean it's been confirmed by news out 799 00:40:37,360 --> 00:40:41,480 Speaker 3: lets repeatedly that January sixth, neo Nazi. 800 00:40:41,560 --> 00:40:44,399 Speaker 5: What what's the confused one, the one who thinks he's white? 801 00:40:44,680 --> 00:40:44,799 Speaker 12: Oh? 802 00:40:44,920 --> 00:40:47,200 Speaker 3: Nick Nick. 803 00:40:48,719 --> 00:40:51,920 Speaker 5: The guy from Miami, Yeah yeah, yeah yeahque and riquees 804 00:40:52,040 --> 00:40:54,560 Speaker 5: Yeah yeah yeah. He didn't know if he's black, Hispanic 805 00:40:54,840 --> 00:40:57,239 Speaker 5: or white man. But but you said, Nick point is 806 00:40:57,880 --> 00:40:58,640 Speaker 5: nixed the podcast. 807 00:40:58,880 --> 00:40:59,759 Speaker 2: I know who he is. 808 00:41:00,080 --> 00:41:03,800 Speaker 1: What is he he's what is his racial background? 809 00:41:03,840 --> 00:41:07,640 Speaker 5: Oh he's White's white wins. Yeah, he's like Christopher Columbus white. 810 00:41:07,680 --> 00:41:08,960 Speaker 3: But the only point I wanted to make is that 811 00:41:08,960 --> 00:41:11,080 Speaker 3: this administration has no respect for those clearances. 812 00:41:11,120 --> 00:41:11,560 Speaker 5: Anyway. 813 00:41:11,760 --> 00:41:15,799 Speaker 3: They waved, they have waived senior people, people who have 814 00:41:15,920 --> 00:41:21,840 Speaker 3: responsibilities for the US's representation on an international scale, who 815 00:41:22,360 --> 00:41:24,919 Speaker 3: we don't know whether or not their funds trace back 816 00:41:24,960 --> 00:41:28,520 Speaker 3: to foreign governments who are paying them, who paid them 817 00:41:28,520 --> 00:41:31,480 Speaker 3: previous to their roles, whether they are double agents. None 818 00:41:31,520 --> 00:41:34,200 Speaker 3: of that is known.

And that's just another example 860 00:43:29,160 --> 00:43:31,200 Speaker 6: of how they're undermining all of this. And I'm just like, 861 00:43:31,480 --> 00:43:33,360 Speaker 6: I need the American public to understand. 862 00:43:33,760 --> 00:43:38,600 Speaker 5: I just saw an ICE agent here in Minneapolis. Moon protesters. 863 00:43:39,120 --> 00:43:40,759 Speaker 5: What y'all didn't see that? 864 00:43:40,880 --> 00:43:44,400 Speaker 7: No, was it a showing his whole ass? 865 00:43:44,520 --> 00:43:48,560 Speaker 5: Yeah, they were.

I mean, it's just pale, so 870 00:43:56,640 --> 00:44:03,520 Speaker 5: so like. But that goes to the character of That 871 00:44:03,680 --> 00:44:06,520 Speaker 5: goes to the character of the law enforcement that we're 872 00:44:06,560 --> 00:44:10,840 Speaker 5: talking about. Like, And it's hard for me because I 873 00:44:10,880 --> 00:44:13,480 Speaker 5: am the person who looks at things from this perspective 874 00:44:13,600 --> 00:44:17,960 Speaker 5: of it's I don't believe it's just like one apple 875 00:44:18,000 --> 00:44:20,400 Speaker 5: fail from the tree, But I don't want to indict 876 00:44:20,760 --> 00:44:26,000 Speaker 5: the entire agency because of the behavior of a few. However, however, 877 00:44:26,160 --> 00:44:30,400 Speaker 5: in this particular instance, we're seeing such an influx of 878 00:44:30,480 --> 00:44:34,360 Speaker 5: bad characters. We're seeing the the examples happen over and 879 00:44:34,400 --> 00:44:39,240 Speaker 5: over and over again. You can't help winter culture the culture. 880 00:44:38,880 --> 00:44:43,040 Speaker 3: But we can disess the culture from their success rate. 881 00:44:43,560 --> 00:44:45,720 Speaker 3: And we seven out of ten, right that they seven 882 00:44:45,760 --> 00:44:47,480 Speaker 3: out of ten are fails? 883 00:44:47,520 --> 00:44:47,840 Speaker 5: Correct? 884 00:44:47,920 --> 00:44:50,239 Speaker 3: Are they are? They shouldn't be coming into contact with 885 00:44:50,400 --> 00:44:53,719 Speaker 3: US American citizens or detaining them, taking them from their 886 00:44:53,760 --> 00:44:56,120 Speaker 3: homes causing them to have to walk back across county 887 00:44:56,120 --> 00:44:58,800 Speaker 3: boundaries to get back to where they were lifted from. 888 00:44:59,280 --> 00:45:01,120 Speaker 3: There was a story that was done about the down 889 00:45:01,160 --> 00:45:03,400 Speaker 3: in Texas where the Ice agents picked up the guy. 890 00:45:03,640 --> 00:45:06,520 Speaker 3: The guy, the kid because he was a minor, left 891 00:45:06,560 --> 00:45:09,680 Speaker 3: his cell phone in the car. He tracks through his 892 00:45:09,800 --> 00:45:12,840 Speaker 3: services where the phone is and it has been pawned 893 00:45:12,880 --> 00:45:16,920 Speaker 3: at a pawn shop located and it's an attention center 894 00:45:17,000 --> 00:45:18,440 Speaker 3: where he's where he was taken to. 895 00:45:18,600 --> 00:45:20,359 Speaker 7: They pawned his phone. They pawned that boy. 896 00:45:20,440 --> 00:45:27,439 Speaker 3: So I'm like, these guys. 897 00:45:25,080 --> 00:45:26,600 Speaker 7: Real life, so you want to dte them. 898 00:45:27,200 --> 00:45:32,120 Speaker 5: That's not what I said. What I said was most 899 00:45:32,160 --> 00:45:34,920 Speaker 5: times you don't indict an entire agency because of the 900 00:45:34,920 --> 00:45:37,480 Speaker 5: behavior of one. What I'm trying to say is that 901 00:45:37,760 --> 00:45:40,960 Speaker 5: the behavior the influx of these individuals is vastly different. 902 00:45:41,120 --> 00:45:43,319 Speaker 5: So even if it was one, let's say, what the 903 00:45:43,400 --> 00:45:46,839 Speaker 5: cancer has metastasized so bad that the indictment for the 904 00:45:47,000 --> 00:45:50,000 Speaker 5: entire agency rest appropriately. That's what I'm saying. 905 00:45:50,239 --> 00:45:51,200 Speaker 7: It makes a lot of sense. 906 00:45:52,800 --> 00:45:55,239 Speaker 6: And I'm just saying we're about to be We're about 907 00:45:55,239 --> 00:45:57,560 Speaker 6: to have a House of representatives where Mike Johnson can 908 00:45:57,600 --> 00:46:00,960 Speaker 6: only afford to lose one vote, and I swear to God, 909 00:46:01,400 --> 00:46:04,560 Speaker 6: every single Democrat in the House needs to be pushing 910 00:46:04,600 --> 00:46:07,120 Speaker 6: to get rid of Ice, because you can do it. 911 00:46:07,400 --> 00:46:10,120 Speaker 7: We just watched Donald Trump slash everything. 912 00:46:10,200 --> 00:46:13,400 Speaker 6: I mean, if he can slash the entire communications department 913 00:46:13,400 --> 00:46:16,080 Speaker 6: at the FDA so that nobody knows baby formula is 914 00:46:16,080 --> 00:46:18,439 Speaker 6: causing batchelism, if y'all didn't see the buy Heart baby 915 00:46:18,440 --> 00:46:20,880 Speaker 6: formula scandal and people are like, why didn't this information 916 00:46:20,880 --> 00:46:23,080 Speaker 6: get out there about these babies in this deadly disease 917 00:46:23,560 --> 00:46:25,759 Speaker 6: because they fired everybody in the calm shop, so there 918 00:46:25,800 --> 00:46:27,839 Speaker 6: was nobody put it out. So if he could do that, 919 00:46:28,400 --> 00:46:31,440 Speaker 6: I think y'all can get rid of the slave catchers, 920 00:46:31,480 --> 00:46:32,960 Speaker 6: the Nazis, whatever you want to call it. 921 00:46:34,440 --> 00:46:36,279 Speaker 5: Im proceedings against Christy Noman. 922 00:46:36,360 --> 00:46:38,520 Speaker 2: You got to do is low hanging fruit. 923 00:46:38,520 --> 00:46:40,920 Speaker 1: But the other thing that I think is really important 924 00:46:41,440 --> 00:46:44,000 Speaker 1: we and we still need to get into the segment 925 00:46:44,040 --> 00:46:45,960 Speaker 1: with a little bit time when we have left. But 926 00:46:46,040 --> 00:46:50,480 Speaker 1: I will just say what blows my absolute mind is 927 00:46:50,520 --> 00:46:54,680 Speaker 1: the fact that these guys are like interchangeable. Now, Ice 928 00:46:54,800 --> 00:47:00,360 Speaker 1: and CBP, there is no reason for border being in Minnesota. Well, 929 00:47:00,520 --> 00:47:05,040 Speaker 1: the difference is that ICE is responsible for workplace raids. Traditionally, 930 00:47:05,640 --> 00:47:08,600 Speaker 1: they're replaced for finding and identifying is supposed to be 931 00:47:08,880 --> 00:47:14,120 Speaker 1: criminals who have you know, illegally stayed, illegally entered border 932 00:47:14,160 --> 00:47:17,760 Speaker 1: patrol literally is supposed to be policing the actual freaking border. 933 00:47:17,840 --> 00:47:20,520 Speaker 3: Oh you haven't heard that they're now the security team 934 00:47:20,560 --> 00:47:23,359 Speaker 3: for the Olympics team for the Winter Olympics.

But if 1057 00:53:01,160 --> 00:53:05,480 Speaker 6: you to say that you can't support a black person 1058 00:53:05,920 --> 00:53:09,279 Speaker 6: for going into that role, and that's just basically saying 1059 00:53:09,320 --> 00:53:11,520 Speaker 6: you don't want any black people in these systems and 1060 00:53:11,600 --> 00:53:13,640 Speaker 6: all making change and then to turn around and now 1061 00:53:13,640 --> 00:53:15,839 Speaker 6: you want these black folks in the system to save you. 1062 00:53:16,040 --> 00:53:16,560 Speaker 7: Is crazy. 1063 00:53:16,600 --> 00:53:18,120 Speaker 6: So I just I would like I would like the 1064 00:53:18,120 --> 00:53:20,080 Speaker 6: white folks out there on the progressive side of things 1065 00:53:20,080 --> 00:53:21,480 Speaker 6: to kind of remember this skulling for. 1066 00:53:21,560 --> 00:53:24,279 Speaker 5: Me, I was gonna say, and the black folks too, 1067 00:53:24,320 --> 00:53:26,040 Speaker 5: because there's a less a lot of black men who 1068 00:53:26,040 --> 00:53:27,319 Speaker 5: were like, I can't vote for no proble. 1069 00:53:27,520 --> 00:53:30,719 Speaker 3: And again, I don't think we should paper over the 1070 00:53:30,760 --> 00:53:34,600 Speaker 3: fact that there's a people didn't arrive here without evidence. 1071 00:53:34,640 --> 00:53:38,080 Speaker 3: They didn't arrive here without life experiences that have led 1072 00:53:38,200 --> 00:53:41,560 Speaker 3: us to this conclusion. But now we're meeting up with 1073 00:53:41,640 --> 00:53:44,359 Speaker 3: some life experiences that are showing us otherwise and making 1074 00:53:44,400 --> 00:53:46,759 Speaker 3: the case as to why it really is important that 1075 00:53:46,840 --> 00:53:49,200 Speaker 3: we have some allies and people who we know and 1076 00:53:49,280 --> 00:53:51,360 Speaker 3: trusts who are going to be fidal to the law, 1077 00:53:51,719 --> 00:54:00,000 Speaker 3: FIDL to the law and fair and the disbursement of justice. 1078 00:54:00,560 --> 00:54:04,719 Speaker 3: But but we didn't wake up deciding this is where 1079 00:54:04,719 --> 00:54:07,560 Speaker 3: we were going to be. Our lived experiences have led 1080 00:54:07,640 --> 00:54:10,640 Speaker 3: us to a conclusion. And now we're having a we're 1081 00:54:10,640 --> 00:54:13,040 Speaker 3: gonna have We're coming up to the test of whether 1082 00:54:13,120 --> 00:54:15,880 Speaker 3: or not we resolved that properly. And I don't believe 1083 00:54:15,880 --> 00:54:18,359 Speaker 3: we did. And it rarely ever do we when it's 1084 00:54:18,440 --> 00:54:21,200 Speaker 3: driven only by our own lived experiences. It has to 1085 00:54:21,239 --> 00:54:22,880 Speaker 3: mess up with something. That's the same thing with this 1086 00:54:22,880 --> 00:54:28,160 Speaker 3: whole Second Amendment deal. I've never been you know, I believe, 1087 00:54:28,200 --> 00:54:31,080 Speaker 3: I believe that the Second Amendment exists. I think we 1088 00:54:31,160 --> 00:54:33,279 Speaker 3: have been extremely. 1089 00:54:33,600 --> 00:54:40,080 Speaker 5: He gave you the bare minimums. 1090 00:54:37,480 --> 00:54:41,000 Speaker 3: But the interpretations of that amendment, I think we have 1091 00:54:41,120 --> 00:54:42,479 Speaker 3: been so. 1092 00:54:43,880 --> 00:54:45,480 Speaker 6: Right to bare arms for him is the right to 1093 00:54:45,480 --> 00:54:46,080 Speaker 6: wear a tank time? 1094 00:54:47,120 --> 00:54:49,359 Speaker 5: ANGI like to had him guns out. Let me ask 1095 00:54:49,400 --> 00:54:52,720 Speaker 5: you a question. So is the So is the Second Amendment? 1096 00:54:52,760 --> 00:54:54,680 Speaker 5: And this is somewhat rhetorical, but like I think this 1097 00:54:54,719 --> 00:54:59,240 Speaker 5: highlights our point. Like is the Second Amendment Filando Castile 1098 00:54:59,320 --> 00:55:01,360 Speaker 5: and Jacob Bla and the young ask you man that 1099 00:55:01,440 --> 00:55:04,560 Speaker 5: you mentioned in Memphis? Or is the second Amendment the 1100 00:55:04,560 --> 00:55:09,040 Speaker 5: two white folks in Missouri who stood out on the mcclasket, 1101 00:55:09,400 --> 00:55:13,840 Speaker 5: them folk who stood out on the yard with ar fifty? 1102 00:55:14,320 --> 00:55:21,120 Speaker 3: Second Amendment is for those peaceful process In my belief 1103 00:55:21,280 --> 00:55:23,719 Speaker 3: is it applies to those who are most adjacent to 1104 00:55:23,760 --> 00:55:26,320 Speaker 3: those in power, either to the people in power or 1105 00:55:26,360 --> 00:55:27,440 Speaker 3: those closest. 1106 00:55:27,040 --> 00:55:29,040 Speaker 5: To I mean, I actually think that it's it's more 1107 00:55:29,120 --> 00:55:31,839 Speaker 5: narrow than that. I think that that you know, it's 1108 00:55:31,920 --> 00:55:35,040 Speaker 5: it belongs to those people who, of course adjacent to power. 1109 00:55:35,520 --> 00:55:38,000 Speaker 5: But there is a there is a negative inference among 1110 00:55:38,520 --> 00:55:41,920 Speaker 5: there's a negative inference going to people of color who 1111 00:55:41,960 --> 00:55:43,680 Speaker 5: possess weapons in this country. 1112 00:55:43,920 --> 00:55:47,480 Speaker 1: But it's also not just people of color. Again, Alex 1113 00:55:47,520 --> 00:55:48,600 Speaker 1: Purdy was a white man. 1114 00:55:48,719 --> 00:55:50,840 Speaker 5: Well, I mean, I think that's I think the reason 1115 00:55:50,840 --> 00:55:53,279 Speaker 5: we're seeing this blowback is because that is a very 1116 00:55:53,440 --> 00:55:55,560 Speaker 5: very very rare They cross the line, which is an 1117 00:55:55,600 --> 00:55:58,320 Speaker 5: exception to every rule they've ever done, and they're like oops. 1118 00:55:59,120 --> 00:56:00,399 Speaker 2: I also don't think that that's true. 1119 00:56:00,480 --> 00:56:03,920 Speaker 1: I think that this isn't just about protecting power. 1120 00:56:04,000 --> 00:56:04,520 Speaker 2: Generally. 1121 00:56:05,680 --> 00:56:09,920 Speaker 1: All of the constitutional amendments are selectively interpreted for those 1122 00:56:09,960 --> 00:56:12,799 Speaker 1: who will protect and blay their bodies on the line 1123 00:56:12,800 --> 00:56:14,520 Speaker 1: for white supremacy, full stop. 1124 00:56:14,640 --> 00:56:16,960 Speaker 3: But I don't I don't think we're saying anything different. 1125 00:56:17,960 --> 00:56:20,640 Speaker 2: I don't think it is, but I should think it. 1126 00:56:20,960 --> 00:56:22,360 Speaker 3: I think, but that is power. 1127 00:56:22,960 --> 00:56:25,239 Speaker 2: You're talking about real power, very specifically. 1128 00:56:25,320 --> 00:56:27,520 Speaker 3: But I think if if we were to evolve and 1129 00:56:28,000 --> 00:56:31,080 Speaker 3: that were to look different one day, I think the 1130 00:56:31,160 --> 00:56:33,760 Speaker 3: rules would still apply. That it is adjacent to those 1131 00:56:33,840 --> 00:56:36,160 Speaker 3: who either have the power or are closest to it. 1132 00:56:36,440 --> 00:56:38,359 Speaker 3: And the reason why I say that is because those 1133 00:56:38,400 --> 00:56:40,680 Speaker 3: are the folks who get the benefit of the doubt you. 1134 00:56:41,080 --> 00:56:43,640 Speaker 3: I get to see you as human, and through my 1135 00:56:43,760 --> 00:56:46,400 Speaker 3: own lens, I can actually put myself on your shoes 1136 00:56:47,080 --> 00:56:50,560 Speaker 3: because of that adjacency. It's because you're human, and I 1137 00:56:50,600 --> 00:56:52,959 Speaker 3: don't there are not these mitigating factors that make. 1138 00:56:52,920 --> 00:56:53,440 Speaker 5: You a threat. 1139 00:56:53,520 --> 00:56:55,080 Speaker 3: Because you had a gun, and you had this and 1140 00:56:55,160 --> 00:56:57,279 Speaker 3: you grew up in this neighborhood, and maybe you said 1141 00:56:57,320 --> 00:56:59,239 Speaker 3: something races over your life, and so on and so forth. 1142 00:56:59,640 --> 00:57:04,160 Speaker 3: All of us get mitigating factors applied to us under 1143 00:57:04,160 --> 00:57:07,000 Speaker 3: the color of the law. Everybody else gets the full 1144 00:57:07,120 --> 00:57:11,920 Speaker 3: embrace of their humanity. Correct when the people who are 1145 00:57:11,960 --> 00:57:15,480 Speaker 3: assessing you are you or closest to you in some way. 1146 00:57:15,920 --> 00:57:19,439 Speaker 3: So the president and all the President's men. The reason 1147 00:57:19,480 --> 00:57:22,960 Speaker 3: why they can do a total about face here is 1148 00:57:23,040 --> 00:57:25,920 Speaker 3: because they were reminded that these weren't just some apes 1149 00:57:25,920 --> 00:57:27,760 Speaker 3: out in the street that they were after, but this 1150 00:57:27,920 --> 00:57:30,320 Speaker 3: was a white man. It took them a while to 1151 00:57:30,560 --> 00:57:34,400 Speaker 3: fix their face. They wear masks for cognitive dissidents. They 1152 00:57:34,480 --> 00:57:37,000 Speaker 3: need to be able to separate themselves from reality. And 1153 00:57:37,680 --> 00:57:40,480 Speaker 3: once they peel that lens away, they were able to 1154 00:57:40,560 --> 00:57:43,600 Speaker 3: see we transgress on our own. 1155 00:57:43,560 --> 00:57:46,800 Speaker 1: Land, they transgress also on their own jurisdiction. And that's 1156 00:57:46,880 --> 00:57:50,200 Speaker 1: I feel like this is such a circular conversation. Hopefully 1157 00:57:50,280 --> 00:57:52,320 Speaker 1: we can get back into all of the amendments and 1158 00:57:52,360 --> 00:57:54,360 Speaker 1: how they apply, especially given this to the two hundred 1159 00:57:54,360 --> 00:57:57,000 Speaker 1: and fiftieth anniversary of the Declaration of Independence, and we 1160 00:57:57,160 --> 00:57:57,880 Speaker 1: is still not free. 1161 00:57:57,960 --> 00:58:00,320 Speaker 2: Let's go to a quick viewer question and we'll get 1162 00:58:00,400 --> 00:58:01,280 Speaker 2: right in a cause to action. 1163 00:58:06,680 --> 00:58:08,880 Speaker 13: Who cares about truth when the laws more than. 1164 00:58:08,920 --> 00:58:09,280 Speaker 3: Saying it. 1165 00:58:11,840 --> 00:58:15,920 Speaker 12: Good morning family? At a Native Land pod, I was 1166 00:58:17,120 --> 00:58:20,120 Speaker 12: I'm on my way into work. But over the weekend, 1167 00:58:20,280 --> 00:58:23,880 Speaker 12: my husband and I, who are millenniums, can't even say that. 1168 00:58:24,160 --> 00:58:25,960 Speaker 7: But you know the group I'm trying to say. 1169 00:58:26,680 --> 00:58:29,800 Speaker 12: We spent the weekend with my mother in law, her brother, 1170 00:58:30,040 --> 00:58:35,160 Speaker 12: her sister, and their friend who are all in their sixties, and. 1171 00:58:37,400 --> 00:58:40,280 Speaker 7: They were yelling, not yelling, but they were. 1172 00:58:40,200 --> 00:58:46,400 Speaker 12: Having a conversation something about Ice is doing other business 1173 00:58:46,520 --> 00:58:50,360 Speaker 12: besides taking emigrants. They're taking people that you know, didn't 1174 00:58:50,400 --> 00:58:53,400 Speaker 12: pay back the PPP loans and all this other stuff. 1175 00:58:53,400 --> 00:58:57,200 Speaker 12: They're big conspiracy folks. But then my husband was saying 1176 00:58:57,440 --> 00:59:01,560 Speaker 12: something and he mentioned it's all about politics, and they 1177 00:59:01,680 --> 00:59:04,040 Speaker 12: yelled at him. They were like, it's not all about politics. 1178 00:59:05,280 --> 00:59:07,920 Speaker 12: Is he correct to say that everything is political in 1179 00:59:08,280 --> 00:59:10,520 Speaker 12: this world? Everything is with politics? 1180 00:59:11,360 --> 00:59:14,480 Speaker 7: First of all, who in law's I'm gonna pray for you, 1181 00:59:14,640 --> 00:59:15,360 Speaker 7: my lord? 1182 00:59:17,760 --> 00:59:18,760 Speaker 3: That's just circumspect. 1183 00:59:19,040 --> 00:59:20,640 Speaker 5: Yeah, they're curious. 1184 00:59:22,320 --> 00:59:22,880 Speaker 2: Arounding up, But. 1185 00:59:24,840 --> 00:59:30,200 Speaker 5: I mean, what's what they're doing. What they're First of all, 1186 00:59:30,680 --> 00:59:32,760 Speaker 5: let me give a shout out to you for defending 1187 00:59:32,840 --> 00:59:35,680 Speaker 5: your husband. I like that she was like my husband. 1188 00:59:36,320 --> 00:59:38,720 Speaker 5: She said, my husband, my husband is right, and I 1189 00:59:38,840 --> 00:59:40,960 Speaker 5: need the for y'all to say my husband is right. 1190 00:59:41,040 --> 00:59:44,600 Speaker 5: So your husband, your husband is right. Play the clip 1191 00:59:44,680 --> 00:59:47,120 Speaker 5: back at the next family gathering. But your husband actually 1192 00:59:47,200 --> 00:59:50,280 Speaker 5: is right, So I mean they are actually there may 1193 00:59:50,320 --> 00:59:54,120 Speaker 5: be some people who have frauded defrauded PPP loans, because 1194 00:59:54,120 --> 00:59:56,320 Speaker 5: what they're doing is they're going into people's homes with 1195 00:59:56,440 --> 00:59:59,640 Speaker 5: reckless abandon without warrants, and they are just kind of 1196 01:00:00,120 --> 01:00:02,800 Speaker 5: catching everybody with or without anything they may or may 1197 01:00:02,880 --> 01:00:05,920 Speaker 5: not have done right or wrong. And that is not 1198 01:00:06,240 --> 01:00:10,600 Speaker 5: the directive. That is just a kind of an ancillary 1199 01:00:10,720 --> 01:00:13,640 Speaker 5: to what their goal emission may be, so that their 1200 01:00:14,040 --> 01:00:17,920 Speaker 5: conspiracy theory ain't all the way wrong. But it's not 1201 01:00:18,240 --> 01:00:21,480 Speaker 5: nail on head. The fact is everything is political and 1202 01:00:21,600 --> 01:00:24,120 Speaker 5: nothing happens in a vacuum. The reason that ice in 1203 01:00:24,200 --> 01:00:26,280 Speaker 5: the National Guard are in your street dates back to 1204 01:00:26,320 --> 01:00:29,240 Speaker 5: when Kamala Harrison and Hillary Clinton both said that he 1205 01:00:29,360 --> 01:00:31,600 Speaker 5: was going to use the military in your street to 1206 01:00:31,720 --> 01:00:34,640 Speaker 5: not only implement Project twenty twenty five, but to create 1207 01:00:34,680 --> 01:00:37,120 Speaker 5: a new world order and to instill fear in every 1208 01:00:37,160 --> 01:00:40,560 Speaker 5: community that's killing people without account and to kill people 1209 01:00:40,560 --> 01:00:42,680 Speaker 5: without account. So it ties into what they want to 1210 01:00:42,720 --> 01:00:45,680 Speaker 5: do by getting rid of qualified immunity and having absolute immunity. 1211 01:00:45,920 --> 01:00:47,680 Speaker 5: It talks about what they want to do with immigrants 1212 01:00:47,720 --> 01:00:50,160 Speaker 5: and how they're trying to stifle immigration, particularly in the 1213 01:00:50,240 --> 01:00:52,720 Speaker 5: Somali community, which is right here, how they're trying to 1214 01:00:52,800 --> 01:00:57,440 Speaker 5: make the world wider. We're not the world, the country wider' 1215 01:00:57,960 --> 01:00:59,440 Speaker 5: that's criticism Europe. 1216 01:01:00,120 --> 01:01:03,360 Speaker 3: Speech was all about. What we learned from Europe is 1217 01:01:03,480 --> 01:01:05,160 Speaker 3: that you can't just so everybody. 1218 01:01:05,280 --> 01:01:07,800 Speaker 5: Your husband's right, because it's all political. I mean, we 1219 01:01:07,920 --> 01:01:10,760 Speaker 5: talk about South African immigrants coming in this country because 1220 01:01:10,760 --> 01:01:13,200 Speaker 5: they're quote unquote not a drain, but yet you can't 1221 01:01:13,200 --> 01:01:16,320 Speaker 5: have immigrants from West Africa, you can't have immigrants from Somalia. 1222 01:01:16,720 --> 01:01:20,960 Speaker 5: And so your husband's absolutely correct that everything is political. 1223 01:01:21,040 --> 01:01:22,960 Speaker 5: I hope that you take the opportunity to listen to 1224 01:01:23,040 --> 01:01:28,480 Speaker 5: Georgia Ford, who was on my panel yesterday evening here 1225 01:01:28,520 --> 01:01:31,240 Speaker 5: in Minneapolis Tuesday, and one of the things she said, 1226 01:01:31,240 --> 01:01:32,880 Speaker 5: if you go back to YouTube and just listen to 1227 01:01:32,960 --> 01:01:35,080 Speaker 5: Georgia Ford. It was during the latter part of our 1228 01:01:35,120 --> 01:01:37,520 Speaker 5: conversation I asked her what is one thing in the 1229 01:01:37,560 --> 01:01:40,080 Speaker 5: future or right now, an event, a place of time, 1230 01:01:40,200 --> 01:01:42,440 Speaker 5: something that she would do to help create change that 1231 01:01:42,520 --> 01:01:45,960 Speaker 5: she wants to see. And she talked about depoliticizing humanity, 1232 01:01:46,600 --> 01:01:49,720 Speaker 5: and that was so profound that she said that, and 1233 01:01:49,880 --> 01:01:52,480 Speaker 5: that gives credence to your husband's statement that we have 1234 01:01:52,640 --> 01:01:54,520 Speaker 5: to depoliticize humanity. 1235 01:01:54,840 --> 01:01:55,280 Speaker 3: Accept it. 1236 01:01:55,360 --> 01:01:56,240 Speaker 5: What won't happen. 1237 01:01:56,360 --> 01:02:01,040 Speaker 3: I mean the policy people every I mean, this is 1238 01:02:01,120 --> 01:02:04,080 Speaker 3: where we live, It's who we are, and it exists 1239 01:02:04,160 --> 01:02:07,560 Speaker 3: in everything that we encounter in the course of our day, 1240 01:02:07,760 --> 01:02:10,680 Speaker 3: from what we eat, right in the regulation around what 1241 01:02:11,120 --> 01:02:13,440 Speaker 3: we can and what we can and what industry produces, 1242 01:02:13,880 --> 01:02:17,680 Speaker 3: what pesticize and so on and so forth are It 1243 01:02:17,840 --> 01:02:20,360 Speaker 3: exists in everything. And I know people hate to hear that. 1244 01:02:22,360 --> 01:02:25,000 Speaker 3: I hate to know that in some ways, mostly because 1245 01:02:25,440 --> 01:02:33,800 Speaker 3: of the bastardization of what should be good social political interface. Unfortunately, 1246 01:02:34,600 --> 01:02:37,880 Speaker 3: the most powerful people, as they have since the beginning 1247 01:02:37,920 --> 01:02:41,680 Speaker 3: of time, have figured out ways to weaponize and manipulate 1248 01:02:41,840 --> 01:02:45,720 Speaker 3: and bastardize these processes for political meaning power gain. I 1249 01:02:45,720 --> 01:02:49,320 Speaker 3: should separate that just political gain, but power gain the 1250 01:02:49,400 --> 01:02:53,080 Speaker 3: ability to then get to decide the politic of all 1251 01:02:53,160 --> 01:02:56,480 Speaker 3: of us. The ability to curate the politics of every 1252 01:02:56,840 --> 01:02:59,880 Speaker 3: single whatever that looks like. It may look like suppression 1253 01:02:59,880 --> 01:03:03,000 Speaker 3: for us, for others it may look like wild abandoned, 1254 01:03:03,080 --> 01:03:07,120 Speaker 3: and for others it looks like power. It differs certainly 1255 01:03:07,160 --> 01:03:09,240 Speaker 3: in this country, but I think in the world based 1256 01:03:09,280 --> 01:03:12,080 Speaker 3: off of who you are and how close you are 1257 01:03:12,160 --> 01:03:14,520 Speaker 3: to the decision makers, the people who are in position 1258 01:03:14,680 --> 01:03:17,400 Speaker 3: to make decisions that then create consequence with the rest 1259 01:03:17,400 --> 01:03:17,640 Speaker 3: of us. 1260 01:03:17,760 --> 01:03:19,640 Speaker 6: And I just want to point out, for just again 1261 01:03:19,640 --> 01:03:22,080 Speaker 6: because you're talking about everything being political, another example, and 1262 01:03:22,120 --> 01:03:23,280 Speaker 6: that you're in law zy to learn and you to 1263 01:03:23,320 --> 01:03:26,280 Speaker 6: learn the term remigration. It's r E M I G 1264 01:03:26,600 --> 01:03:30,000 Speaker 6: R A t io N. It's like migration, but re 1265 01:03:30,200 --> 01:03:31,960 Speaker 6: in front of it, right, And that's the term that 1266 01:03:32,000 --> 01:03:35,280 Speaker 6: the Trump administration has been using. And that is tied 1267 01:03:35,280 --> 01:03:38,320 Speaker 6: to Alternative for Dutschland, which is AfD, which is the 1268 01:03:38,400 --> 01:03:41,680 Speaker 6: far right Nazi party in Germany that Elon Musk has 1269 01:03:41,720 --> 01:03:43,920 Speaker 6: been supporting and trying to bring up. And I got 1270 01:03:44,000 --> 01:03:48,560 Speaker 6: to go to the German Parliament last year and actually 1271 01:03:48,640 --> 01:03:50,720 Speaker 6: get to talk to the folks and the journalists who 1272 01:03:50,760 --> 01:03:53,040 Speaker 6: expose the AfD and what they're doing, and they focused 1273 01:03:53,080 --> 01:03:57,040 Speaker 6: on reemigration and that is where they take people who 1274 01:03:57,120 --> 01:04:02,360 Speaker 6: are not German enough, not immigrants, not necessarily immigrants, you're 1275 01:04:02,480 --> 01:04:06,080 Speaker 6: just not German enough, and they send you somewhere else. 1276 01:04:07,080 --> 01:04:09,240 Speaker 6: And the Trump administration is using that same term. And 1277 01:04:09,320 --> 01:04:11,600 Speaker 6: it's no coincidence that Elon Musk was deep with AfD 1278 01:04:11,720 --> 01:04:14,520 Speaker 6: and was also deep with the Trump administration, right, So, 1279 01:04:15,040 --> 01:04:19,840 Speaker 6: and yes, Steve Bannon and so I really encourage them 1280 01:04:19,880 --> 01:04:21,400 Speaker 6: to think about the fact that it's not just about 1281 01:04:21,440 --> 01:04:25,840 Speaker 6: PPP loans. The conspiracy. I always tell people, like people 1282 01:04:25,920 --> 01:04:27,960 Speaker 6: dig for these conspiracies. I'm like, the truth is right 1283 01:04:28,000 --> 01:04:29,960 Speaker 6: there in front of you. Yeah, they're saying they're snatching 1284 01:04:29,960 --> 01:04:31,920 Speaker 6: people up, probably for PPP loans of different things. 1285 01:04:32,000 --> 01:04:33,920 Speaker 7: And the fruit of the poisonous tree doctrine is just dead, 1286 01:04:33,960 --> 01:04:34,320 Speaker 7: I guess. 1287 01:04:34,800 --> 01:04:39,080 Speaker 6: But they are doing it in service of remigration to 1288 01:04:39,200 --> 01:04:42,280 Speaker 6: find a reason to kick your black asses out of 1289 01:04:42,320 --> 01:04:44,320 Speaker 6: this country, your brown asses out of this country, regardless 1290 01:04:44,360 --> 01:04:45,440 Speaker 6: of your citizenship status. 1291 01:04:45,800 --> 01:04:49,320 Speaker 1: Well, speaking of getting our asses kicked out, we are 1292 01:04:49,400 --> 01:04:51,160 Speaker 1: at the tail end of our show where we do 1293 01:04:51,400 --> 01:04:55,200 Speaker 1: calls to action, and so I would like to yield 1294 01:04:55,400 --> 01:04:57,959 Speaker 1: to my co hosts on what their calls to action 1295 01:04:58,200 --> 01:05:02,720 Speaker 1: are for this week. Yeah, you're not ready. Okay, come on, 1296 01:05:03,320 --> 01:05:06,720 Speaker 1: bit Booker squared.

I understand that 1306 01:05:27,240 --> 01:05:27,680 Speaker 7: you said you. 1307 01:05:27,720 --> 01:05:30,000 Speaker 6: Weren't sure about how this would affect things if we didn't, 1308 01:05:30,040 --> 01:05:31,600 Speaker 6: you know, appropriate the money. I think we shouldn't be 1309 01:05:31,600 --> 01:05:33,880 Speaker 6: appropriate that additional money to ICE, So I want you 1310 01:05:33,920 --> 01:05:36,280 Speaker 6: to call it two zero two two two four three 1311 01:05:36,360 --> 01:05:38,920 Speaker 6: one two one.

That's just a trick the algorithm. If you scroll, 1317 01:05:49,280 --> 01:05:52,280 Speaker 6: it's actually stuff to get rid of Ice. There's a 1318 01:05:52,360 --> 01:05:56,840 Speaker 6: script in there that you can use to call your senator. 1319 01:05:57,800 --> 01:05:58,360 Speaker 7: What is that? 1320 01:05:58,480 --> 01:06:02,000 Speaker 5: What's my what's my partner's name, uh too real, too raw. 1321 01:06:05,520 --> 01:06:08,240 Speaker 5: This was how I slept with six married men in one. 1322 01:06:08,200 --> 01:06:10,200 Speaker 2: Night, married straight married straight. 1323 01:06:10,000 --> 01:06:13,320 Speaker 5: Married men in one night. It was to get ice. 1324 01:06:13,480 --> 01:06:15,080 Speaker 2: I loved it. You guys are brilliant. 1325 01:06:15,560 --> 01:06:17,200 Speaker 7: No, and you know what you on? 1326 01:06:17,360 --> 01:06:19,200 Speaker 2: Cause to action? Are you back to out for commentary? 1327 01:06:19,200 --> 01:06:24,640 Speaker 2: You'll call it? Okay? Good? I'm just checking Jobby going going. 1328 01:06:25,560 --> 01:06:28,640 Speaker 5: So No, I think I think I called action ties 1329 01:06:28,680 --> 01:06:31,840 Speaker 5: in yours because although I'm not, I don't see the 1330 01:06:31,960 --> 01:06:35,520 Speaker 5: political benefit of, uh shut down. What I do see 1331 01:06:35,520 --> 01:06:37,040 Speaker 5: the benefit of is what I want people to do, 1332 01:06:37,160 --> 01:06:39,680 Speaker 5: which is get involved in the process. And I don't 1333 01:06:39,720 --> 01:06:42,800 Speaker 5: want to dampen people's spirit. So if people are actively 1334 01:06:42,920 --> 01:06:45,240 Speaker 5: engaged with Booker Square or whatever it may be, to 1335 01:06:45,880 --> 01:06:48,360 Speaker 5: go out and call their senators and build their relationships 1336 01:06:48,400 --> 01:06:51,040 Speaker 5: and begin to make that a habit. I want people 1337 01:06:51,040 --> 01:06:53,920 Speaker 5: to get involved because now is the time. We've had 1338 01:06:53,960 --> 01:06:57,320 Speaker 5: a year of respite. People were worn out after the elections. 1339 01:06:57,360 --> 01:06:58,920 Speaker 5: People were tired, they were down, They were like, I 1340 01:06:58,960 --> 01:07:01,680 Speaker 5: can't believe we're here. Now is the time we need 1341 01:07:01,760 --> 01:07:03,800 Speaker 5: people to get re engaged and rest on that bad 1342 01:07:03,920 --> 01:07:06,200 Speaker 5: rock of faith that I mentioned to Yeah. 1343 01:07:06,440 --> 01:07:10,160 Speaker 3: I'm with the two of you on that. It's hard 1344 01:07:10,200 --> 01:07:13,160 Speaker 3: to see where we come out on the partial government 1345 01:07:13,240 --> 01:07:16,000 Speaker 3: shut down if they what I think is happening now 1346 01:07:16,120 --> 01:07:19,400 Speaker 3: is a game of chicken. I think the Senate Majority 1347 01:07:19,480 --> 01:07:23,280 Speaker 3: leader does not believe that Democrats in the US Senate 1348 01:07:23,360 --> 01:07:28,000 Speaker 3: have the courage required to stop these appropriations bills, because 1349 01:07:28,000 --> 01:07:31,240 Speaker 3: they can do it very simply by separating out ICE 1350 01:07:31,280 --> 01:07:34,160 Speaker 3: funding and allowing the other bills to go through. The 1351 01:07:34,200 --> 01:07:37,160 Speaker 3: Senate leadership can do that, they're choosing not to. And 1352 01:07:37,280 --> 01:07:39,360 Speaker 3: so to the extent that we can give our senators 1353 01:07:39,400 --> 01:07:43,200 Speaker 3: the spines that they need to force the Republican leadership 1354 01:07:43,240 --> 01:07:46,480 Speaker 3: to the table of negotiation. Since this is a divided country, 1355 01:07:47,000 --> 01:07:48,640 Speaker 3: then I think we do what is required to make 1356 01:07:48,680 --> 01:07:51,320 Speaker 3: that happen. Is that your call to action, make your 1357 01:07:51,400 --> 01:07:52,480 Speaker 3: calls to the US Senators. 1358 01:07:52,600 --> 01:07:55,280 Speaker 2: I love it. Okay, well, but Cary brought up habits. 1359 01:07:55,320 --> 01:07:56,000 Speaker 2: You know what else is? 1360 01:07:56,080 --> 01:07:58,880 Speaker 1: The habit is stunting and speaking of those who stunt, 1361 01:07:59,000 --> 01:08:02,960 Speaker 1: Ryan Coogler's sent is breaking records.
