Speaker 1: Good morning, peeps, and welcome to wok F Daily with
Speaker 1: Meet your Girl Daniel Moody, recording from the Home Bunker. Folks,
Speaker 1: Happy fuck It Friday. We have made it, and I
Speaker 1: am so ecstatic about weekend ahead. I tell you this
Speaker 1: at the end of each and every goddamn week that
Speaker 1: I am exhausted, as I know that many of you are.
Speaker 1: The news although has not been all that. There have
Speaker 1: been some catastrophic points, of course, because of our new healthscape,
Speaker 1: but there have also been some high points, both of which,
Speaker 1: funny enough, are coming out of Florida. So before I
Speaker 1: get into my round of buckets, I actually do want
Speaker 1: to say that what I believe is happening right when
Speaker 1: you see that there is now a new mayor, Donna Degan,
Speaker 1: who was elected mayor of Jacksonville, Florida, which who the
Speaker 1: hell knew is the most populous city in Florida. I
Speaker 1: thought it was Miami, totally wrong. She was outspent by
Speaker 1: Republican rival Daniel Davis, who was head of the Chamber
Speaker 1: of Commerce. She's outspent like by four points, like four
Speaker 1: to one, and she won. She's going to be the
Speaker 1: first Democratic mayor of Jacksonville. And I also believe the
Speaker 1: first woman ever like in the history of this city.
Speaker 1: And so what is this signal for the Republican Party
Speaker 1: for America? Because political scientists have referred to this city
Speaker 1: as being quote unquote ruby read right, meaning that it
Speaker 1: has been on impenetrable by the Democratic Party. And the
Speaker 1: fact is Daniel Davis was backed by Ron DeSantis and
Speaker 1: guess what, he fucking failed. So maybe this is a signal,
Speaker 1: Maybe this is a canary in the coal mine to
Speaker 1: warn us that if we actually run on the issues
Speaker 1: instead of away from them, if we talk about things
Speaker 1: like democracy and freedom and liberty, if we reclaim these
Speaker 1: words that we have ceded to the Republican Party, that maybe,
Speaker 1: just maybe Democrats can make in roads. You see, I
Speaker 1: have often said, and you all know this who listened
Speaker 1: to this show, that sometimes I get into my moods
Speaker 1: where I'm like, fuck those Red States. I don't want
Speaker 1: anything to do with them, Fuck their super majority Republican nature,
Speaker 1: fuck their bands on books and abortion and drag shows
Speaker 1: and trans people's existence. Don't patronize there whatever. But the
Speaker 1: reality is I have to remember, and this is my
Speaker 1: reminder to myself as well as a reminder to all
Speaker 1: of you that, guess what, there are people Democrats who
Speaker 1: are on the ground in these places that are doing
Speaker 1: the hard fucking work, that are actually making the inroads,
Speaker 1: that are reaching people where they are, and that are
Speaker 1: not tossing up their hands and giving up on this
Speaker 1: city and state where they live. There are only a
Speaker 1: handful of people that have the economic capability to be
Speaker 1: able to leave their states, right to go ahead and
Speaker 1: flee and literally become refugees right of draconian policies, that
Speaker 1: are putting their lives in the lives of their loved
Speaker 1: ones on the line. But for the majority of people,
Speaker 1: picking up your entire life, what you've ever known and
Speaker 1: being able to move across state lines or across the
Speaker 1: country or out of the country is out of the
Speaker 1: realm of possibility. So what then do we do. Do
Speaker 1: we just give up on whole states, whole cities, whole
Speaker 1: town do we give up on people? And this is
Speaker 1: a reminder, with this win from Donna Deagan down in Jacksonville, Florida,
Speaker 1: that you have to find a way to make a
Speaker 1: way out of no way, because what the Republican Party
Speaker 1: wants us all to believe is that we are hopeless,
Speaker 1: We have no power. They have the will, They have
Speaker 1: the gabble in the Supreme Court and everywhere else that
Speaker 1: they and them alone are going to determine who America
Speaker 1: is and what our future looks like. And in this moment,
Speaker 1: I am telling you they are waking up people, this
Speaker 1: Republican Party and their anti democratic ways and their love
Speaker 1: affair with autocracy. They are are waking up generations of
Speaker 1: people that have been asleep, or the younger generation that
Speaker 1: is saying, I'm not gonna inherit this shit pile that
Speaker 1: you are trying to give me and tell me that
Speaker 1: it's my lot in life to carry and live inside
Speaker 1: up they are saying no. And so just when we feel,
Speaker 1: folks like we are being pushed to our breaking point,
Speaker 1: there are spots, whether it be here right in the
Speaker 1: area of Jacksonville, whether it be in I believe it
Speaker 1: was Colorado Springs. If I'm not mistaken, Yes, I am right.
Speaker 1: Who just elected Yemmy Mobola Laid to become the next
Speaker 1: mayor of Colorado Springs. He is a Nigerian immigrant and
Speaker 1: has lived in Colorado Springs. This is the first elected
Speaker 1: black mayor ever. Mobil Aid is of Colorado Springs, and
Speaker 1: so what we are seeing by the way Colorado gave
Speaker 1: us Lauren Bobert just saying, we are seeing people make
Speaker 1: a way out of no way, people turn the impossible
Speaker 1: into possibilities. And I want us to go into this
Speaker 1: fucked Friday not just wanting to, you know, raise a
Speaker 1: glass and rage and scream, which trust me, I am
Speaker 1: always fine to do, but we also have to reflect
Speaker 1: on winds. When winds are made, we also have to
Speaker 1: understand that inroads are being made in these ruby red places,
Speaker 1: these places that are still experiencing their first black person,
Speaker 1: their first person of color, their first woman, their first
Speaker 1: queer person taking over the reins of electoral politics. And
Speaker 1: that is something that I want us to be able
Speaker 1: to celebrate on this Friday because it is im poort
Speaker 1: and it is an important signal for us to see
Speaker 1: as we move into this twenty twenty four election cycle.
Speaker 1: That was the good news. I'm stretching and I am
Speaker 1: ready for the series series of people that I am
Speaker 1: saying fucking to on this Friday. And as always, dear friends,
Speaker 1: if you are a patron, dm me or comment under
Speaker 1: this and tell me who you are saying fucke to
Speaker 1: hit me up in Twitter. I'm still there at D
Speaker 1: two cents and tell me who you are saying fucking
Speaker 1: to at D two cents D E E two ce
Speaker 1: ce and TF you think I can spell? It's been
Speaker 1: a long week and it's the same on Instagram. So
Speaker 1: let me start off with one of my favorite fucket people,
Speaker 1: the person I love to say fuck it to the most,
Speaker 1: and actually there's a tie this week, but we'll start
Speaker 1: there anyway, which is Marjorie Taylor fucking Green. So this
Speaker 1: fool has found herself holding a press conference right where
Speaker 1: she is introducing impeachment articles for Representative Jamal Bowman, who
Speaker 1: is a representative from New York. He has been on
Speaker 1: this program and was on when he would had just
Speaker 1: won his seat. And let me tell you this, Marsherie
Speaker 1: Taylor Green ain't nothing but alling, grifting lover QAnon, listening
Speaker 1: to white supremacist child harasser piece of crap that I
Speaker 1: have ever seen. The fact that Marjorie Taylor Green is
Speaker 1: a representative of Congress should be an embarrassment to everyone
Speaker 1: in Congress, right, that should actually be a bipartisan thought,
Speaker 1: because this woman had the audacity right to hold a
Speaker 1: press event after her and Representative Jamal Bowman had to
Speaker 1: back and forth out on Capitol Hill, and they had
Speaker 1: a back and forth because which was videotape and has
Speaker 1: been shared around the place, because Jamal Bowman is not
Speaker 1: taking the bullshit anymore and is not going to allow
Speaker 1: his Republican colleagues to continue to ruin the lives of
Speaker 1: American people, to push anti democratic pieces of legislation, to
Speaker 1: hold people in Congress who should in fact be expelled.
Speaker 1: Looking at you, George Santos, and so in this exchange,
Speaker 1: Jamal Bowman is saying to her, save the country, save
Speaker 1: your party, do what's right, pass right sensible gun reform,
Speaker 1: do what's right, Expel George Santos from office. And they're
Speaker 1: having this big back and forth. Never once does Jamal
Speaker 1: Bowman in circle her as she had said, There was
Speaker 1: no quote unquote mob, there was no touching, there was
Speaker 1: no breach of personal space except by Marjorie Taylor Green,
Speaker 1: who had her hand in Jamal Bowman's face the entire time.
Speaker 1: She took to her presser to say that she felt
Speaker 1: that his physical appearance was quote unquote aggressive and that
Speaker 1: she felt scared and threatened let me pause and ask
Speaker 1: you where have you all heard that phrase before? Maybe
Speaker 1: it comes out of the mouth of every single white
Speaker 1: police officer that uses excessive force and police brutality to
Speaker 1: either kill and on our black person or to severely
Speaker 1: harm them. Right, maybe you've heard it, you know, offered
Speaker 1: up by the woman who most recently died who I
Speaker 1: will tell you Emmett Till's case, And that's where I'm going.
Speaker 1: I want to make sure that I get her name
Speaker 1: right because it is very important for me to express
Speaker 1: this woman, because I want people to remember her. She
Speaker 1: got to live a long life. So Carolyn Bryant Donnam,
Speaker 1: Carolyn Bryant Donnam was the white woman who lied about
Speaker 1: Emmett Till whistling at her right and threatened and taken
Speaker 1: aback and scared, She went home and goes and spread
Speaker 1: this lie. And then Emmett Till is beaten to death,
Speaker 1: lynched and tortured, and his murder because of his mother.
Speaker 1: Sharing the brutality of what white supremacy and violence does
Speaker 1: two black bodies was one of the sparks of the
Speaker 1: civil rights movement. So I say that Marjorie Taylor Green's lie,
Speaker 1: which was thankfully vindicated by multiple angles and video that
Speaker 1: show that she is a fucking liar with regard to
Speaker 1: feeling threatened by Jamal Bowman falls in line of a
Speaker 1: whole host of white women that have used that very
Speaker 1: same fucking dangerous lie right to harm black people knowingly.
Speaker 1: So right, it's not like, oh, I say this and
Speaker 1: I don't know what's gonna happen. You fucking know exactly
Speaker 1: what is gonna happen, and then you want to feign
Speaker 1: right innocence, which is what hundreds of white women, if
Speaker 1: not thousands of white women, have been able to do
Speaker 1: as they enable white supremacy and patriarchy in this country
Speaker 1: and continue to do so. I was just so fucking
Speaker 1: taken aback because I said to myself, sir, not this
Speaker 1: Marjorie Taylor Green saying that she feels threatened. Not the
Speaker 1: Marjorie Taylor Green that ran around the Capitol building before
Speaker 1: she was an elected official, harassing then teenager child David
Speaker 1: Hogg who had just experienced a school shooting where he
Speaker 1: watched his friends and his teachers be gunned down. Right,
Speaker 1: Not that same woman who was feeling threatened that then
Speaker 1: told that same young man that she's following him around,
Speaker 1: that she had a gun in her purse. Not the
Speaker 1: same Marjorie Taylor Green saying that she feels threatened that
Speaker 1: has had restraining orders placed against her from her repres
Speaker 1: of her colleagues because she has been finding herself harassing
Speaker 1: them and following them around the capitol and into elevators. Right,
Speaker 1: Not that same woman, So miss me with your fucking bullshit,
Speaker 1: Marjorie Taylor Green and using the same tropes and the
Speaker 1: same fucking stereotypes about black men and about black people
Speaker 1: that have found us meeting early, early deaths at the
Speaker 1: hands of white supremacts like you. And also, also, let
Speaker 1: me double down and say this that Marjorie Taylor Green
Speaker 1: said she takes great offense to being called a white supremacist,
Speaker 1: and that to her being referred to as a white supremacist,
Speaker 1: as Jamal Bowman rightfully did, is akin to being called
Speaker 1: the N word, which should never be done. Bitch, miss
Speaker 1: me with your fucking lies, because I'm pretty sure that
Speaker 1: has come out of your mouth as you shake hands
Speaker 1: with and share stage with pronounced white supremacts who are
Speaker 1: not afraid to say that they use the N word,
Speaker 1: right that, Let me tell you something. You probably have
Speaker 1: songs that you sing right when you think that you
Speaker 1: are all alone, just drippin in the N word. There
Speaker 1: is no equivalence because if it walks like a white supremacist,
Speaker 1: talks like a white supremacist, and legislates like a white supremacist,
Speaker 1: it's a white supremacist and that is you. Okay. So
Speaker 1: that is my first fucket on this fucked Friday. Fuck
Speaker 1: it to Marjorie Taylor Green. You are a fucking embarrassment
Speaker 1: and Republicans should be embarrassed, but only people with shame
Speaker 1: can be embarrassed. Coming up next on my list of
Speaker 1: fuckets is oh oh my, my, my, my, my my
Speaker 1: Elon Musk, Elan, and you will probably say to yourself, well,
Speaker 1: which which thing do you want to say? Fuck it
Speaker 1: to Danielle, because when it comes to Elon Musk, there
Speaker 1: are just so many fucking choices. Well. Elon Musk found
Speaker 1: himself most recently sitting down in an interview with CNBC's
Speaker 1: David Faber, and in this interview, Elon Musk said that
Speaker 1: quote working from home is morally wrong. I'm sorry what
Speaker 1: having the ability to be able to do your job
Speaker 1: from home is morally wrong? And get this, He says,
Speaker 1: it's because service workers still have to show up. Do
Speaker 1: you know what's morally wrong being a greedy, fucking multi
Speaker 1: billionaire that has made their fortune on the backs of
Speaker 1: black and brown people? Why do I say that? Oh?
Speaker 1: I don't know. Because Elon Musk's family owned Emerald Minds
Speaker 1: in South Africa. Who do you think was doing the
Speaker 1: mining of those gems that Elon Musk was known to
Speaker 1: carry around in his pockets. I'm certain right that you
Speaker 1: would just call those black folks that did that work
Speaker 1: in those minds is just you know, unpaid labor. Right,
Speaker 1: Maybe I would call them enslaved. Maybe I would call
Speaker 1: them beaten down and oppressed and probably paid pennies on
Speaker 1: the dollar, so that those would be your initial investments
Speaker 1: into the steps and the hierarchy of becoming a billionaire. Right,
Speaker 1: don't talk to us, don't lecture the public from your
Speaker 1: fucking throne about what it means to be morally wrong.
Speaker 1: The racial wealth gap in this country is morally wrong.
Speaker 1: The class gap in this country, the economic gap of
Speaker 1: the haves and the have is morally fucking wrong. The
Speaker 1: fact that you could be a billionaire with hundreds of
Speaker 1: billions of dollars to your name, while there are people
Speaker 1: that are literally begging for food and shelter on a
Speaker 1: subway and then get choked out because of it is
Speaker 1: morally fucking wrong. Do not lecture us Elon Musk, a
Speaker 1: man who, by the way, is at the helm of
Speaker 1: I believe three different companies stepping down from Twitter, because
Speaker 1: you should have never been there in the fucking first place.
Speaker 1: If Congress had labeled it as a public utility, then
Speaker 1: you wouldn't have been able to destroy the global town
Speaker 1: square in the way that you have. I digress, but
Speaker 1: I'm sorry, sir. Do you find yourself in all three
Speaker 1: of those office buildings at the same fucking time or
Speaker 1: are you remote working so that you can manage them? But? Ohways,
Speaker 1: only remote work for the ultra wealthy, while the peasants
Speaker 1: are forced to go into work. Because you see, the
Speaker 1: thing that we recognize during the horrific pandemic that we
Speaker 1: have all been traumatized from and still don't discuss, is
Speaker 1: that society didn't collapse because people were forced to work
Speaker 1: from home during a global health pandemic. Capitalism didn't crumble
Speaker 1: because people had the ability to what tend to their children,
Speaker 1: cook dinner, do laundry, get outdoors and live outside of
Speaker 1: a cubicle. No, the world pressed on, so you are
Speaker 1: just full as shit. And please, fucking mainstream media, can
Speaker 1: we stop asking the ultra wealthy about what they think
Speaker 1: that the rest of us should be doing. Please let
Speaker 1: us stop doing that. Let me stop asking the ultra
Speaker 1: wealthy that we're born with silver and platinum fucking spoons
Speaker 1: in their mouth. What the rest of us who are
Speaker 1: actually working from the ground up to build a life
Speaker 1: of dignity and respect and to be able to live
Speaker 1: some sort some version of the American dream. Let's stop
Speaker 1: using these people who are so fucking greedy as our
Speaker 1: models for success and morality. I do not need a
Speaker 1: lecture or a lesson on morality from Elon fucking Musk.
Speaker 1: So for that, on this good, good Friday, I say
Speaker 1: fuck it to Elon Musk and rounding up my week
Speaker 1: of fuck it and folks, there are just so many
Speaker 1: people in so many ways and so many things. But
Speaker 1: top of mind again is Chris Licked, the CEO of CNN,
Speaker 1: who most recently in a Variety article said that it
Speaker 1: is important, it is necessary to showcase both sides of
Speaker 1: an issue, and I got to tell you that Chris
Speaker 1: Lickt one is just straightly full of shit, which we
Speaker 1: all know, right that Chris lickt doesn't care about news.
Speaker 1: He doesn't care about Oh, I don't know what is
Speaker 1: that thing democracy? He doesn't care about creating an educated citizen. Try.
Speaker 1: He cares about money, right, Like that's what he cares about.
Speaker 1: And so when he says these things and Medi Hassan,
Speaker 1: I was trying to find the tweet that he sent out,
Speaker 1: which I thought was just so good because he was like,
Speaker 1: so we need to show both sides of every issue.
Speaker 1: So election deniers, they should be given a platform. Those
Speaker 1: that are against democracy, they should be given a platform.
Speaker 1: Climate deniers should be given a platform. Anti semits then
Speaker 1: should be given a platform. Clearly, we give platforms to
Speaker 1: transphobes because we don't actually give a fuck about trans
Speaker 1: people in this country. So every issue, dear Chris lick
Speaker 1: does not deserve both sides, right. But I see that
Speaker 1: you are chasing that Fox viewer and the place that
Speaker 1: it got you two days following Donald Trump's town hall,
Speaker 1: which didn't bring in the big, big numbers in the
Speaker 1: four and five million that you were hoping for to
Speaker 1: be able to ride in that twenty sixteen numbers and ratings.
Speaker 1: Again it fell flat. And not only did it fall
Speaker 1: flat on that night, and you were highly ridiculed, which
Speaker 1: is why you were on an apology tour right now,
Speaker 1: but your numbers fell even further. You were rivaling Newsmax
Speaker 1: that following Friday after your town hall with Donald Trump.
Speaker 1: And just so you know, your promotion of Caitlin Collins,
Speaker 1: who I just became hit to, who got her start
Speaker 1: as an entertainment correspondent for the right wing fascist white
Speaker 1: supremacist network The Daily Caller, is also not going to
Speaker 1: be your claim to fame. I believe in boycotts. I
Speaker 1: am boycotting CNN. I will not put that program on
Speaker 1: in my house, on my phone, on my computer. Fuck
Speaker 1: them in all honesty, because I'm not going to contribute
Speaker 1: to the mainstreaming of white supremacy, which my co host
Speaker 1: on Democracy is Waha hot Ali and I get into
Speaker 1: this week as well, so you should check out that episode.
Speaker 1: But boy, oh boy, from Marjorie Taylor Green to Elon
Speaker 1: Musk to Chris Alick, white supremacy knows no bounds this week,
Speaker 1: right the fuckery knows no bounds. But I will tell
Speaker 1: you that I started out the show with good news
Speaker 1: and I got to say and I want to end
Speaker 1: it that way today, which is that people are more
Speaker 1: woke than ever before. Right the decision this week by
Speaker 1: the North Carolina Republican supermajority to override the democratically elected
Speaker 1: governors veto on their abortion ban, you might have just
Speaker 1: helped turn North Carolina blue. So pay attention to what
Speaker 1: is happening in these little pockets and corners of the
Speaker 1: country where the electorate is fighting back one vote, one
Speaker 1: election at a time. You've been put on notice. That
Speaker 1: is it for me today, dear friends on Woke, A
Speaker 1: app as always power to the people and to all
Speaker 1: of the people. Power, get woke and stay woke as fuck. Mhm.
