1 00:00:11,720 --> 00:00:14,640 Speaker 1: Good morning, peeps, and welcome to wok F Daily with 2 00:00:14,840 --> 00:00:19,799 Speaker 1: Meet your Girl Daniel Moody, recording from the Home Bunker. Folks, 3 00:00:20,360 --> 00:00:24,599 Speaker 1: Happy fuck It Friday. We have made it, and I 4 00:00:24,680 --> 00:00:29,400 Speaker 1: am so ecstatic about weekend ahead. I tell you this 5 00:00:29,560 --> 00:00:32,080 Speaker 1: at the end of each and every goddamn week that 6 00:00:32,280 --> 00:00:35,200 Speaker 1: I am exhausted, as I know that many of you are. 7 00:00:35,840 --> 00:00:40,640 Speaker 1: The news although has not been all that. There have 8 00:00:40,760 --> 00:00:45,320 Speaker 1: been some catastrophic points, of course, because of our new healthscape, 9 00:00:45,680 --> 00:00:49,800 Speaker 1: but there have also been some high points, both of which, 10 00:00:49,840 --> 00:00:53,320 Speaker 1: funny enough, are coming out of Florida. So before I 11 00:00:53,320 --> 00:00:56,640 Speaker 1: get into my round of buckets, I actually do want 12 00:00:56,720 --> 00:01:00,880 Speaker 1: to say that what I believe is happening right when 13 00:01:00,960 --> 00:01:06,800 Speaker 1: you see that there is now a new mayor, Donna Degan, 14 00:01:07,920 --> 00:01:12,480 Speaker 1: who was elected mayor of Jacksonville, Florida, which who the 15 00:01:12,560 --> 00:01:16,959 Speaker 1: hell knew is the most populous city in Florida. I 16 00:01:17,000 --> 00:01:22,280 Speaker 1: thought it was Miami, totally wrong. She was outspent by 17 00:01:22,680 --> 00:01:27,920 Speaker 1: Republican rival Daniel Davis, who was head of the Chamber 18 00:01:27,959 --> 00:01:31,480 Speaker 1: of Commerce. She's outspent like by four points, like four 19 00:01:31,520 --> 00:01:35,040 Speaker 1: to one, and she won. She's going to be the 20 00:01:35,080 --> 00:01:38,920 Speaker 1: first Democratic mayor of Jacksonville. And I also believe the 21 00:01:38,959 --> 00:01:43,360 Speaker 1: first woman ever like in the history of this city. 22 00:01:43,480 --> 00:01:47,640 Speaker 1: And so what is this signal for the Republican Party 23 00:01:47,960 --> 00:01:54,320 Speaker 1: for America? Because political scientists have referred to this city 24 00:01:54,920 --> 00:01:59,280 Speaker 1: as being quote unquote ruby read right, meaning that it 25 00:01:59,320 --> 00:02:03,640 Speaker 1: has been on impenetrable by the Democratic Party. And the 26 00:02:03,720 --> 00:02:08,800 Speaker 1: fact is Daniel Davis was backed by Ron DeSantis and 27 00:02:08,880 --> 00:02:15,920 Speaker 1: guess what, he fucking failed. So maybe this is a signal, 28 00:02:16,240 --> 00:02:19,920 Speaker 1: Maybe this is a canary in the coal mine to 29 00:02:20,440 --> 00:02:24,200 Speaker 1: warn us that if we actually run on the issues 30 00:02:24,200 --> 00:02:27,320 Speaker 1: instead of away from them, if we talk about things 31 00:02:27,480 --> 00:02:33,800 Speaker 1: like democracy and freedom and liberty, if we reclaim these 32 00:02:33,919 --> 00:02:39,240 Speaker 1: words that we have ceded to the Republican Party, that maybe, 33 00:02:39,600 --> 00:02:43,360 Speaker 1: just maybe Democrats can make in roads. You see, I 34 00:02:43,400 --> 00:02:45,600 Speaker 1: have often said, and you all know this who listened 35 00:02:45,600 --> 00:02:49,480 Speaker 1: to this show, that sometimes I get into my moods 36 00:02:49,639 --> 00:02:52,720 Speaker 1: where I'm like, fuck those Red States. I don't want 37 00:02:52,760 --> 00:02:57,440 Speaker 1: anything to do with them, Fuck their super majority Republican nature, 38 00:02:57,600 --> 00:03:00,680 Speaker 1: fuck their bands on books and abortion and drag shows 39 00:03:00,720 --> 00:03:05,200 Speaker 1: and trans people's existence. Don't patronize there whatever. But the 40 00:03:05,280 --> 00:03:07,920 Speaker 1: reality is I have to remember, and this is my 41 00:03:08,040 --> 00:03:11,400 Speaker 1: reminder to myself as well as a reminder to all 42 00:03:11,440 --> 00:03:17,560 Speaker 1: of you that, guess what, there are people Democrats who 43 00:03:17,600 --> 00:03:21,000 Speaker 1: are on the ground in these places that are doing 44 00:03:21,040 --> 00:03:26,000 Speaker 1: the hard fucking work, that are actually making the inroads, 45 00:03:26,160 --> 00:03:28,600 Speaker 1: that are reaching people where they are, and that are 46 00:03:28,600 --> 00:03:31,560 Speaker 1: not tossing up their hands and giving up on this 47 00:03:31,680 --> 00:03:35,680 Speaker 1: city and state where they live. There are only a 48 00:03:35,720 --> 00:03:40,120 Speaker 1: handful of people that have the economic capability to be 49 00:03:40,280 --> 00:03:44,880 Speaker 1: able to leave their states, right to go ahead and 50 00:03:45,040 --> 00:03:51,880 Speaker 1: flee and literally become refugees right of draconian policies, that 51 00:03:51,920 --> 00:03:54,040 Speaker 1: are putting their lives in the lives of their loved 52 00:03:54,080 --> 00:03:57,760 Speaker 1: ones on the line. But for the majority of people, 53 00:03:58,120 --> 00:04:01,960 Speaker 1: picking up your entire life, what you've ever known and 54 00:04:02,080 --> 00:04:04,680 Speaker 1: being able to move across state lines or across the 55 00:04:04,720 --> 00:04:07,480 Speaker 1: country or out of the country is out of the 56 00:04:07,520 --> 00:04:11,000 Speaker 1: realm of possibility. So what then do we do. Do 57 00:04:11,120 --> 00:04:13,839 Speaker 1: we just give up on whole states, whole cities, whole 58 00:04:13,840 --> 00:04:17,000 Speaker 1: town do we give up on people? And this is 59 00:04:17,040 --> 00:04:23,080 Speaker 1: a reminder, with this win from Donna Deagan down in Jacksonville, Florida, 60 00:04:23,520 --> 00:04:28,320 Speaker 1: that you have to find a way to make a 61 00:04:28,360 --> 00:04:31,760 Speaker 1: way out of no way, because what the Republican Party 62 00:04:31,839 --> 00:04:35,600 Speaker 1: wants us all to believe is that we are hopeless, 63 00:04:35,839 --> 00:04:38,839 Speaker 1: We have no power. They have the will, They have 64 00:04:38,960 --> 00:04:42,560 Speaker 1: the gabble in the Supreme Court and everywhere else that 65 00:04:42,720 --> 00:04:46,240 Speaker 1: they and them alone are going to determine who America 66 00:04:46,400 --> 00:04:49,640 Speaker 1: is and what our future looks like. And in this moment, 67 00:04:50,040 --> 00:04:53,240 Speaker 1: I am telling you they are waking up people, this 68 00:04:53,320 --> 00:04:58,360 Speaker 1: Republican Party and their anti democratic ways and their love 69 00:04:58,400 --> 00:05:02,800 Speaker 1: affair with autocracy. They are are waking up generations of 70 00:05:02,920 --> 00:05:06,599 Speaker 1: people that have been asleep, or the younger generation that 71 00:05:06,720 --> 00:05:09,840 Speaker 1: is saying, I'm not gonna inherit this shit pile that 72 00:05:09,880 --> 00:05:12,000 Speaker 1: you are trying to give me and tell me that 73 00:05:12,040 --> 00:05:14,520 Speaker 1: it's my lot in life to carry and live inside 74 00:05:14,600 --> 00:05:19,000 Speaker 1: up they are saying no. And so just when we feel, 75 00:05:19,920 --> 00:05:23,680 Speaker 1: folks like we are being pushed to our breaking point, 76 00:05:24,160 --> 00:05:28,760 Speaker 1: there are spots, whether it be here right in the 77 00:05:28,920 --> 00:05:33,760 Speaker 1: area of Jacksonville, whether it be in I believe it 78 00:05:34,080 --> 00:05:38,680 Speaker 1: was Colorado Springs. If I'm not mistaken, Yes, I am right. 79 00:05:39,200 --> 00:05:46,400 Speaker 1: Who just elected Yemmy Mobola Laid to become the next 80 00:05:46,440 --> 00:05:52,640 Speaker 1: mayor of Colorado Springs. He is a Nigerian immigrant and 81 00:05:53,240 --> 00:05:57,400 Speaker 1: has lived in Colorado Springs. This is the first elected 82 00:05:57,680 --> 00:06:04,240 Speaker 1: black mayor ever. Mobil Aid is of Colorado Springs, and 83 00:06:04,360 --> 00:06:08,679 Speaker 1: so what we are seeing by the way Colorado gave 84 00:06:08,760 --> 00:06:14,160 Speaker 1: us Lauren Bobert just saying, we are seeing people make 85 00:06:14,200 --> 00:06:17,560 Speaker 1: a way out of no way, people turn the impossible 86 00:06:17,839 --> 00:06:21,080 Speaker 1: into possibilities.

When winds are made, we also have to 91 00:06:35,560 --> 00:06:40,400 Speaker 1: understand that inroads are being made in these ruby red places, 92 00:06:41,080 --> 00:06:44,800 Speaker 1: these places that are still experiencing their first black person, 93 00:06:44,880 --> 00:06:47,680 Speaker 1: their first person of color, their first woman, their first 94 00:06:47,760 --> 00:06:52,520 Speaker 1: queer person taking over the reins of electoral politics.

The fact that Marjorie Taylor Green is 121 00:08:44,000 --> 00:08:49,319 Speaker 1: a representative of Congress should be an embarrassment to everyone 122 00:08:49,640 --> 00:08:54,960 Speaker 1: in Congress, right, that should actually be a bipartisan thought, 123 00:08:55,640 --> 00:09:01,000 Speaker 1: because this woman had the audacity right to hold a 124 00:09:01,040 --> 00:09:05,600 Speaker 1: press event after her and Representative Jamal Bowman had to 125 00:09:05,679 --> 00:09:09,800 Speaker 1: back and forth out on Capitol Hill, and they had 126 00:09:09,840 --> 00:09:12,719 Speaker 1: a back and forth because which was videotape and has 127 00:09:12,760 --> 00:09:16,840 Speaker 1: been shared around the place, because Jamal Bowman is not 128 00:09:17,280 --> 00:09:21,319 Speaker 1: taking the bullshit anymore and is not going to allow 129 00:09:21,640 --> 00:09:26,240 Speaker 1: his Republican colleagues to continue to ruin the lives of 130 00:09:26,800 --> 00:09:32,760 Speaker 1: American people, to push anti democratic pieces of legislation, to 131 00:09:33,080 --> 00:09:37,240 Speaker 1: hold people in Congress who should in fact be expelled. 132 00:09:37,440 --> 00:09:41,160 Speaker 1: Looking at you, George Santos, and so in this exchange, 133 00:09:41,320 --> 00:09:45,400 Speaker 1: Jamal Bowman is saying to her, save the country, save 134 00:09:45,480 --> 00:09:50,480 Speaker 1: your party, do what's right, pass right sensible gun reform, 135 00:09:50,840 --> 00:09:54,440 Speaker 1: do what's right, Expel George Santos from office. And they're 136 00:09:54,480 --> 00:09:58,760 Speaker 1: having this big back and forth. Never once does Jamal 137 00:09:58,840 --> 00:10:03,040 Speaker 1: Bowman in circle her as she had said, There was 138 00:10:03,120 --> 00:10:08,280 Speaker 1: no quote unquote mob, there was no touching, there was 139 00:10:08,480 --> 00:10:14,200 Speaker 1: no breach of personal space except by Marjorie Taylor Green, 140 00:10:14,280 --> 00:10:19,080 Speaker 1: who had her hand in Jamal Bowman's face the entire time. 141 00:10:19,600 --> 00:10:22,440 Speaker 1: She took to her presser to say that she felt 142 00:10:22,520 --> 00:10:27,440 Speaker 1: that his physical appearance was quote unquote aggressive and that 143 00:10:27,480 --> 00:10:31,560 Speaker 1: she felt scared and threatened let me pause and ask 144 00:10:31,679 --> 00:10:36,880 Speaker 1: you where have you all heard that phrase before? Maybe 145 00:10:37,000 --> 00:10:39,679 Speaker 1: it comes out of the mouth of every single white 146 00:10:39,679 --> 00:10:44,280 Speaker 1: police officer that uses excessive force and police brutality to 147 00:10:44,480 --> 00:10:48,920 Speaker 1: either kill and on our black person or to severely 148 00:10:49,080 --> 00:10:54,280 Speaker 1: harm them. Right, maybe you've heard it, you know, offered 149 00:10:54,480 --> 00:11:01,440 Speaker 1: up by the woman who most recently died who I 150 00:11:01,480 --> 00:11:05,640 Speaker 1: will tell you Emmett Till's case, And that's where I'm going. 151 00:11:05,920 --> 00:11:07,680 Speaker 1: I want to make sure that I get her name 152 00:11:07,760 --> 00:11:13,000 Speaker 1: right because it is very important for me to express 153 00:11:13,400 --> 00:11:16,280 Speaker 1: this woman, because I want people to remember her. She 154 00:11:16,360 --> 00:11:20,440 Speaker 1: got to live a long life. So Carolyn Bryant Donnam, 155 00:11:21,080 --> 00:11:27,760 Speaker 1: Carolyn Bryant Donnam was the white woman who lied about 156 00:11:28,040 --> 00:11:34,440 Speaker 1: Emmett Till whistling at her right and threatened and taken 157 00:11:34,480 --> 00:11:39,440 Speaker 1: aback and scared, She went home and goes and spread 158 00:11:39,520 --> 00:11:43,560 Speaker 1: this lie. And then Emmett Till is beaten to death, 159 00:11:43,840 --> 00:11:48,280 Speaker 1: lynched and tortured, and his murder because of his mother. 160 00:11:48,480 --> 00:11:54,400 Speaker 1: Sharing the brutality of what white supremacy and violence does 161 00:11:54,920 --> 00:11:58,480 Speaker 1: two black bodies was one of the sparks of the 162 00:11:58,520 --> 00:12:02,720 Speaker 1: civil rights movement. So I say that Marjorie Taylor Green's lie, 163 00:12:03,600 --> 00:12:09,600 Speaker 1: which was thankfully vindicated by multiple angles and video that 164 00:12:09,800 --> 00:12:13,720 Speaker 1: show that she is a fucking liar with regard to 165 00:12:14,240 --> 00:12:19,000 Speaker 1: feeling threatened by Jamal Bowman falls in line of a 166 00:12:19,080 --> 00:12:22,800 Speaker 1: whole host of white women that have used that very 167 00:12:22,920 --> 00:12:31,079 Speaker 1: same fucking dangerous lie right to harm black people knowingly. 168 00:12:31,200 --> 00:12:33,480 Speaker 1: So right, it's not like, oh, I say this and 169 00:12:33,559 --> 00:12:37,120 Speaker 1: I don't know what's gonna happen. You fucking know exactly 170 00:12:37,160 --> 00:12:39,840 Speaker 1: what is gonna happen, and then you want to feign 171 00:12:40,440 --> 00:12:45,800 Speaker 1: right innocence, which is what hundreds of white women, if 172 00:12:45,840 --> 00:12:48,360 Speaker 1: not thousands of white women, have been able to do 173 00:12:48,960 --> 00:12:54,000 Speaker 1: as they enable white supremacy and patriarchy in this country 174 00:12:54,120 --> 00:13:00,199 Speaker 1: and continue to do so. I was just so fucking 175 00:13:00,200 --> 00:13:05,520 Speaker 1: taken aback because I said to myself, sir, not this 176 00:13:05,720 --> 00:13:12,360 Speaker 1: Marjorie Taylor Green saying that she feels threatened. Not the 177 00:13:12,400 --> 00:13:17,880 Speaker 1: Marjorie Taylor Green that ran around the Capitol building before 178 00:13:17,920 --> 00:13:24,080 Speaker 1: she was an elected official, harassing then teenager child David 179 00:13:24,160 --> 00:13:30,319 Speaker 1: Hogg who had just experienced a school shooting where he 180 00:13:30,520 --> 00:13:36,720 Speaker 1: watched his friends and his teachers be gunned down. Right, 181 00:13:38,240 --> 00:13:41,480 Speaker 1: Not that same woman who was feeling threatened that then 182 00:13:41,679 --> 00:13:45,240 Speaker 1: told that same young man that she's following him around, 183 00:13:45,240 --> 00:13:47,760 Speaker 1: that she had a gun in her purse. Not the 184 00:13:47,880 --> 00:13:51,200 Speaker 1: same Marjorie Taylor Green saying that she feels threatened that 185 00:13:51,280 --> 00:13:55,760 Speaker 1: has had restraining orders placed against her from her repres 186 00:13:55,760 --> 00:14:00,640 Speaker 1: of her colleagues because she has been finding herself harassing 187 00:14:00,640 --> 00:14:06,040 Speaker 1: them and following them around the capitol and into elevators. Right, 188 00:14:07,080 --> 00:14:12,359 Speaker 1: Not that same woman, So miss me with your fucking bullshit, 189 00:14:12,800 --> 00:14:16,720 Speaker 1: Marjorie Taylor Green and using the same tropes and the 190 00:14:16,760 --> 00:14:21,160 Speaker 1: same fucking stereotypes about black men and about black people 191 00:14:21,880 --> 00:14:27,920 Speaker 1: that have found us meeting early, early deaths at the 192 00:14:28,000 --> 00:14:32,720 Speaker 1: hands of white supremacts like you. And also, also, let 193 00:14:32,720 --> 00:14:37,440 Speaker 1: me double down and say this that Marjorie Taylor Green 194 00:14:38,280 --> 00:14:43,280 Speaker 1: said she takes great offense to being called a white supremacist, 195 00:14:43,560 --> 00:14:47,000 Speaker 1: and that to her being referred to as a white supremacist, 196 00:14:47,040 --> 00:14:51,160 Speaker 1: as Jamal Bowman rightfully did, is akin to being called 197 00:14:51,160 --> 00:14:55,560 Speaker 1: the N word, which should never be done. Bitch, miss 198 00:14:55,560 --> 00:14:58,920 Speaker 1: me with your fucking lies, because I'm pretty sure that 199 00:14:58,960 --> 00:15:01,480 Speaker 1: has come out of your mouth as you shake hands 200 00:15:01,520 --> 00:15:05,520 Speaker 1: with and share stage with pronounced white supremacts who are 201 00:15:05,560 --> 00:15:08,040 Speaker 1: not afraid to say that they use the N word, 202 00:15:08,400 --> 00:15:12,240 Speaker 1: right that, Let me tell you something. You probably have 203 00:15:12,520 --> 00:15:15,840 Speaker 1: songs that you sing right when you think that you 204 00:15:15,960 --> 00:15:19,320 Speaker 1: are all alone, just drippin in the N word. There 205 00:15:19,440 --> 00:15:23,280 Speaker 1: is no equivalence because if it walks like a white supremacist, 206 00:15:23,480 --> 00:15:27,440 Speaker 1: talks like a white supremacist, and legislates like a white supremacist, 207 00:15:27,720 --> 00:15:32,000 Speaker 1: it's a white supremacist and that is you. Okay. So 208 00:15:32,120 --> 00:15:35,800 Speaker 1: that is my first fucket on this fucked Friday. Fuck 209 00:15:35,880 --> 00:15:38,840 Speaker 1: it to Marjorie Taylor Green. You are a fucking embarrassment 210 00:15:39,160 --> 00:15:43,040 Speaker 1: and Republicans should be embarrassed, but only people with shame 211 00:15:43,440 --> 00:15:49,920 Speaker 1: can be embarrassed. Coming up next on my list of 212 00:15:50,040 --> 00:15:54,640 Speaker 1: fuckets is oh oh my, my, my, my, my my 213 00:15:55,960 --> 00:16:02,480 Speaker 1: Elon Musk, Elan, and you will probably say to yourself, well, 214 00:16:02,560 --> 00:16:05,440 Speaker 1: which which thing do you want to say? Fuck it 215 00:16:05,480 --> 00:16:07,920 Speaker 1: to Danielle, because when it comes to Elon Musk, there 216 00:16:07,920 --> 00:16:12,400 Speaker 1: are just so many fucking choices. Well. Elon Musk found 217 00:16:12,480 --> 00:16:17,960 Speaker 1: himself most recently sitting down in an interview with CNBC's 218 00:16:18,040 --> 00:16:23,920 Speaker 1: David Faber, and in this interview, Elon Musk said that 219 00:16:24,160 --> 00:16:31,600 Speaker 1: quote working from home is morally wrong. I'm sorry what 220 00:16:33,440 --> 00:16:37,480 Speaker 1: having the ability to be able to do your job 221 00:16:37,560 --> 00:16:39,840 Speaker 1: from home is morally wrong? And get this, He says, 222 00:16:39,840 --> 00:16:42,800 Speaker 1: it's because service workers still have to show up. Do 223 00:16:42,840 --> 00:16:48,560 Speaker 1: you know what's morally wrong being a greedy, fucking multi 224 00:16:48,640 --> 00:16:52,760 Speaker 1: billionaire that has made their fortune on the backs of 225 00:16:53,640 --> 00:16:56,280 Speaker 1: black and brown people? Why do I say that? Oh? 226 00:16:56,360 --> 00:17:02,200 Speaker 1: I don't know. Because Elon Musk's family owned Emerald Minds 227 00:17:02,440 --> 00:17:05,520 Speaker 1: in South Africa. Who do you think was doing the 228 00:17:05,680 --> 00:17:10,119 Speaker 1: mining of those gems that Elon Musk was known to 229 00:17:10,240 --> 00:17:14,919 Speaker 1: carry around in his pockets. I'm certain right that you 230 00:17:15,080 --> 00:17:18,879 Speaker 1: would just call those black folks that did that work 231 00:17:18,880 --> 00:17:22,880 Speaker 1: in those minds is just you know, unpaid labor. Right, 232 00:17:23,240 --> 00:17:26,920 Speaker 1: Maybe I would call them enslaved. Maybe I would call 233 00:17:27,080 --> 00:17:31,240 Speaker 1: them beaten down and oppressed and probably paid pennies on 234 00:17:31,320 --> 00:17:35,200 Speaker 1: the dollar, so that those would be your initial investments 235 00:17:35,240 --> 00:17:39,720 Speaker 1: into the steps and the hierarchy of becoming a billionaire. Right, 236 00:17:41,040 --> 00:17:45,280 Speaker 1: don't talk to us, don't lecture the public from your 237 00:17:45,359 --> 00:17:49,280 Speaker 1: fucking throne about what it means to be morally wrong. 238 00:17:49,880 --> 00:17:54,119 Speaker 1: The racial wealth gap in this country is morally wrong. 239 00:17:54,680 --> 00:17:58,520 Speaker 1: The class gap in this country, the economic gap of 240 00:17:58,600 --> 00:18:02,560 Speaker 1: the haves and the have is morally fucking wrong. The 241 00:18:02,600 --> 00:18:08,399 Speaker 1: fact that you could be a billionaire with hundreds of 242 00:18:08,440 --> 00:18:12,360 Speaker 1: billions of dollars to your name, while there are people 243 00:18:12,640 --> 00:18:16,480 Speaker 1: that are literally begging for food and shelter on a 244 00:18:16,560 --> 00:18:20,199 Speaker 1: subway and then get choked out because of it is 245 00:18:20,320 --> 00:18:26,879 Speaker 1: morally fucking wrong. Do not lecture us Elon Musk, a 246 00:18:26,960 --> 00:18:28,960 Speaker 1: man who, by the way, is at the helm of 247 00:18:29,040 --> 00:18:33,200 Speaker 1: I believe three different companies stepping down from Twitter, because 248 00:18:33,200 --> 00:18:35,280 Speaker 1: you should have never been there in the fucking first place. 249 00:18:35,480 --> 00:18:38,560 Speaker 1: If Congress had labeled it as a public utility, then 250 00:18:38,560 --> 00:18:41,160 Speaker 1: you wouldn't have been able to destroy the global town 251 00:18:41,240 --> 00:18:44,359 Speaker 1: square in the way that you have. I digress, but 252 00:18:44,560 --> 00:18:48,119 Speaker 1: I'm sorry, sir. Do you find yourself in all three 253 00:18:48,160 --> 00:18:52,280 Speaker 1: of those office buildings at the same fucking time or 254 00:18:52,320 --> 00:18:56,119 Speaker 1: are you remote working so that you can manage them? But? Ohways, 255 00:18:56,160 --> 00:18:59,760 Speaker 1: only remote work for the ultra wealthy, while the peasants 256 00:18:59,800 --> 00:19:01,919 Speaker 1: are forced to go into work. Because you see, the 257 00:19:01,960 --> 00:19:05,639 Speaker 1: thing that we recognize during the horrific pandemic that we 258 00:19:05,680 --> 00:19:09,600 Speaker 1: have all been traumatized from and still don't discuss, is 259 00:19:09,720 --> 00:19:16,160 Speaker 1: that society didn't collapse because people were forced to work 260 00:19:16,200 --> 00:19:21,760 Speaker 1: from home during a global health pandemic. Capitalism didn't crumble 261 00:19:22,600 --> 00:19:27,240 Speaker 1: because people had the ability to what tend to their children, 262 00:19:27,680 --> 00:19:33,200 Speaker 1: cook dinner, do laundry, get outdoors and live outside of 263 00:19:33,240 --> 00:19:39,320 Speaker 1: a cubicle. No, the world pressed on, so you are 264 00:19:39,359 --> 00:19:43,720 Speaker 1: just full as shit. And please, fucking mainstream media, can 265 00:19:43,800 --> 00:19:47,400 Speaker 1: we stop asking the ultra wealthy about what they think 266 00:19:47,400 --> 00:19:50,840 Speaker 1: that the rest of us should be doing. Please let 267 00:19:50,920 --> 00:19:54,280 Speaker 1: us stop doing that. Let me stop asking the ultra 268 00:19:54,359 --> 00:19:58,360 Speaker 1: wealthy that we're born with silver and platinum fucking spoons 269 00:19:58,400 --> 00:20:01,240 Speaker 1: in their mouth. What the rest of us who are 270 00:20:01,400 --> 00:20:05,920 Speaker 1: actually working from the ground up to build a life 271 00:20:05,960 --> 00:20:09,399 Speaker 1: of dignity and respect and to be able to live 272 00:20:09,600 --> 00:20:14,440 Speaker 1: some sort some version of the American dream. Let's stop 273 00:20:14,800 --> 00:20:18,920 Speaker 1: using these people who are so fucking greedy as our 274 00:20:19,080 --> 00:20:23,119 Speaker 1: models for success and morality. I do not need a 275 00:20:23,240 --> 00:20:28,520 Speaker 1: lecture or a lesson on morality from Elon fucking Musk. 276 00:20:29,920 --> 00:20:34,040 Speaker 1: So for that, on this good, good Friday, I say 277 00:20:34,400 --> 00:20:40,840 Speaker 1: fuck it to Elon Musk and rounding up my week 278 00:20:41,520 --> 00:20:44,399 Speaker 1: of fuck it and folks, there are just so many 279 00:20:44,440 --> 00:20:47,679 Speaker 1: people in so many ways and so many things. But 280 00:20:47,840 --> 00:20:53,360 Speaker 1: top of mind again is Chris Licked, the CEO of CNN, 281 00:20:53,480 --> 00:20:58,159 Speaker 1: who most recently in a Variety article said that it 282 00:20:58,280 --> 00:21:04,040 Speaker 1: is important, it is necessary to showcase both sides of 283 00:21:04,080 --> 00:21:08,119 Speaker 1: an issue, and I got to tell you that Chris 284 00:21:08,160 --> 00:21:12,159 Speaker 1: Lickt one is just straightly full of shit, which we 285 00:21:12,600 --> 00:21:18,440 Speaker 1: all know, right that Chris lickt doesn't care about news. 286 00:21:18,800 --> 00:21:23,840 Speaker 1: He doesn't care about Oh, I don't know what is 287 00:21:23,880 --> 00:21:31,440 Speaker 1: that thing democracy? He doesn't care about creating an educated citizen. Try. 288 00:21:32,080 --> 00:21:36,200 Speaker 1: He cares about money, right, Like that's what he cares about. 289 00:21:36,240 --> 00:21:42,760 Speaker 1: And so when he says these things and Medi Hassan, 290 00:21:43,000 --> 00:21:46,879 Speaker 1: I was trying to find the tweet that he sent out, 291 00:21:46,960 --> 00:21:52,840 Speaker 1: which I thought was just so good because he was like, 292 00:21:53,000 --> 00:21:56,280 Speaker 1: so we need to show both sides of every issue. 293 00:21:56,400 --> 00:22:01,480 Speaker 1: So election deniers, they should be given a platform. Those 294 00:22:01,520 --> 00:22:05,240 Speaker 1: that are against democracy, they should be given a platform. 295 00:22:05,280 --> 00:22:09,960 Speaker 1: Climate deniers should be given a platform. Anti semits then 296 00:22:10,080 --> 00:22:13,399 Speaker 1: should be given a platform. Clearly, we give platforms to 297 00:22:13,480 --> 00:22:16,760 Speaker 1: transphobes because we don't actually give a fuck about trans 298 00:22:16,840 --> 00:22:22,640 Speaker 1: people in this country. So every issue, dear Chris lick 299 00:22:22,960 --> 00:22:28,200 Speaker 1: does not deserve both sides, right. But I see that 300 00:22:28,240 --> 00:22:32,800 Speaker 1: you are chasing that Fox viewer and the place that 301 00:22:32,840 --> 00:22:36,399 Speaker 1: it got you two days following Donald Trump's town hall, 302 00:22:36,440 --> 00:22:39,879 Speaker 1: which didn't bring in the big, big numbers in the 303 00:22:39,960 --> 00:22:42,600 Speaker 1: four and five million that you were hoping for to 304 00:22:42,640 --> 00:22:46,640 Speaker 1: be able to ride in that twenty sixteen numbers and ratings. 305 00:22:46,680 --> 00:22:49,680 Speaker 1: Again it fell flat. And not only did it fall 306 00:22:49,760 --> 00:22:52,520 Speaker 1: flat on that night, and you were highly ridiculed, which 307 00:22:52,560 --> 00:22:54,960 Speaker 1: is why you were on an apology tour right now, 308 00:22:55,600 --> 00:23:01,640 Speaker 1: but your numbers fell even further. You were rivaling Newsmax 309 00:23:02,280 --> 00:23:06,600 Speaker 1: that following Friday after your town hall with Donald Trump. 310 00:23:06,640 --> 00:23:11,440 Speaker 1: And just so you know, your promotion of Caitlin Collins, 311 00:23:11,480 --> 00:23:16,600 Speaker 1: who I just became hit to, who got her start 312 00:23:16,800 --> 00:23:22,160 Speaker 1: as an entertainment correspondent for the right wing fascist white 313 00:23:22,200 --> 00:23:26,000 Speaker 1: supremacist network The Daily Caller, is also not going to 314 00:23:26,080 --> 00:23:29,600 Speaker 1: be your claim to fame. I believe in boycotts. I 315 00:23:29,640 --> 00:23:32,919 Speaker 1: am boycotting CNN. I will not put that program on 316 00:23:33,040 --> 00:23:35,800 Speaker 1: in my house, on my phone, on my computer. Fuck 317 00:23:35,880 --> 00:23:40,520 Speaker 1: them in all honesty, because I'm not going to contribute 318 00:23:40,880 --> 00:23:45,440 Speaker 1: to the mainstreaming of white supremacy, which my co host 319 00:23:45,520 --> 00:23:48,639 Speaker 1: on Democracy is Waha hot Ali and I get into 320 00:23:49,000 --> 00:23:52,320 Speaker 1: this week as well, so you should check out that episode. 321 00:23:52,680 --> 00:23:57,640 Speaker 1: But boy, oh boy, from Marjorie Taylor Green to Elon 322 00:23:57,800 --> 00:24:01,920 Speaker 1: Musk to Chris Alick, white supremacy knows no bounds this week, 323 00:24:02,520 --> 00:24:05,520 Speaker 1: right the fuckery knows no bounds. But I will tell 324 00:24:05,560 --> 00:24:10,080 Speaker 1: you that I started out the show with good news 325 00:24:10,119 --> 00:24:11,840 Speaker 1: and I got to say and I want to end 326 00:24:11,880 --> 00:24:15,920 Speaker 1: it that way today, which is that people are more 327 00:24:16,000 --> 00:24:20,760 Speaker 1: woke than ever before. Right the decision this week by 328 00:24:20,760 --> 00:24:27,359 Speaker 1: the North Carolina Republican supermajority to override the democratically elected 329 00:24:27,400 --> 00:24:32,600 Speaker 1: governors veto on their abortion ban, you might have just 330 00:24:32,680 --> 00:24:38,119 Speaker 1: helped turn North Carolina blue.
