  Speaker 1: Tell me this is a miracle.
• 0:04
  Speaker 2: There is no question that there are problems in this
• 0:07
  Speaker 2: country between police and community.
• 0:10
  Speaker 3: Yes, you are a donkey to the latest on that
• 0:14
  Speaker 3: police killing of a.
• 0:15
  Speaker 4: Black man, now the new developments in the deathly spatshooting rampage.
• 0:18
  Speaker 1: Then yes, say it was a really bad day for
• 0:19
  Speaker 1: him and this is what he did, and so we
• 0:21
  Speaker 1: are in a state of emergency.
• 0:24
  Speaker 3: Okay, white supremacist violence, it is always have been the
• 0:28
  Speaker 3: number one threat to our society.
• 0:29
  Speaker 1: But I'm also very proud that my wife is white.
• 0:33
  Speaker 1: The practice club bitches sorright.
• 0:35
  Speaker 5: Brenning, please tell me why was I your.
• 0:38
  Speaker 4: Donkey of the day.
• 0:39
  Speaker 1: Happy Monday, y'all.
• 0:40
  Speaker 3: Donkey of to Day for Monday, May eighteenth goes to
• 0:43
  Speaker 3: the Speaker of the House of the United States.
• 0:45
  Speaker 1: Of America, Mike Johnson.
• 0:46
  Speaker 3: Now, I know it's a lot going on, and you've
• 0:48
  Speaker 3: probably seen the headline on how the Supreme Court has
• 0:51
  Speaker 3: made it harder to protect black voting power by weakening
• 0:54
  Speaker 3: parts of the Voting Rights Act of nineteen sixty five.
• 0:56
  Speaker 1: They've been doing this since twenty thirteen.
• 0:58
  Speaker 3: Okay, President Barack Obama scare the establishment so much that
• 1:01
  Speaker 3: they said, ah, we're gonna make sure this never happens again. Okay,
• 1:05
  Speaker 3: we cannot let these negroes have any political power. So
• 1:08
  Speaker 3: that rally you saw this weekend in Montgomery, Alabama, the
• 1:11
  Speaker 3: All Roads Lead to the South rally. That was because
• 1:14
  Speaker 3: the Supreme Court essentially gutted the Voting Rights Act and
• 1:17
  Speaker 3: severely limited protections against voting discrimination. And I don't think
• 1:20
  Speaker 3: anybody cares except for black people. Okay, I'm serious. I
• 1:24
  Speaker 3: saw the governor of California, Gavin Newsom, say, Democrats need
• 1:28
  Speaker 3: to be talking more about the gutting of the Voting
• 1:32
  Speaker 3: Rights Act. This is the governor of California, Gavin Newsom.
• 1:35
  Speaker 3: He posted, Democrats need to be talking more about the
• 1:39
  Speaker 3: gutting and he put gutting in capital letters of the
• 1:42
  Speaker 3: Voting Rights Act. MAGA is silencing voters and carving up
• 1:46
  Speaker 3: black districts all across the South to hold onto power.
• 1:49
  Speaker 1: This is Jim Crow. Two point zero silence is not
• 1:52
  Speaker 1: an option. In quote.
• 1:55
  Speaker 3: The fact that Gavin Newsom, the governor of California, big Democrat,
• 2:00
  Speaker 3: had to post that is exactly why people don't like Democrats. Okay,
• 2:03
  Speaker 3: the voting power of your most loyal constituents, the cornerstone
• 2:06
  Speaker 3: of your electoral success has been weakened, gutted in one
• 2:09
  Speaker 3: of your most prominent faces, Gavin Newsom has to tell
• 2:12
  Speaker 3: y'all not to be silent about it. Unbelievable, but like
• 2:16
  Speaker 3: I said, nobody seems to care about this issue except
• 2:18
  Speaker 3: for black people. And that leads me to Speaker at
• 2:20
  Speaker 3: the House, Mike Johnson. He was on Fox News Sunday
• 2:22
  Speaker 3: with Shannon Beam yesterday and he was asked what his
• 2:25
  Speaker 3: message was to Black Americans after the Supreme Court delivered
• 2:28
  Speaker 3: such a severe blow to the Voting Rights Act.
• 2:31
  Speaker 1: Let's listen to what he said.
• 2:32
  Speaker 2: This is a great turnaround, and to turn back to
• 2:35
  Speaker 2: Jim Crower or politics in the fifties, we're looking at
• 2:39
  Speaker 2: losing possibly nineteen members of the Congressional Black Caucus because
• 2:44
  Speaker 2: of this frankly racist redistricting efforts targeted towards disenfranchising black
• 2:50
  Speaker 2: voters across the country. So what is your message to
• 2:54
  Speaker 2: Black Americans black voters about this redistricting?
• 2:57
  Speaker 5: The Supreme Court issued a longer way to de pin
• 3:00
  Speaker 5: and then I think it was long overdue, and they
• 3:01
  Speaker 5: stated the obvious that drawing congressional lines must be fair.
• 3:05
  Speaker 5: You cannot draw lines on the basis of race, and
• 3:07
  Speaker 5: that's what was done in Louisiana. So they declared it
• 3:10
  Speaker 5: to be an unconstitutional jerrymander, and it was this brings
• 3:13
  Speaker 5: back fairness and certainty to the system. And I think
• 3:17
  Speaker 5: a lot of states are looking to make sure that
• 3:18
  Speaker 5: their maps are not unconstitutional like Louisiana's was.
• 3:22
  Speaker 1: Mike Michael, Mikey, what are we talking about?
• 3:27
  Speaker 3: Okay, Majority black districts are the real racial jerrymandering. Imagine
• 3:32
  Speaker 3: somebody stealing your car and then getting mad at you
• 3:36
  Speaker 3: because you have a GPS tracker on Okay, mother, who
• 3:39
  Speaker 3: told you to steal my car in the first place?
• 3:40
  Speaker 1: Okay, you the reason I gotta have a GPS tracker.
• 3:42
  Speaker 3: You can't spend decades suppressing black voters, weakening the Voting
• 3:46
  Speaker 3: Rights Act. Every chance you get slicing up districts like
• 3:49
  Speaker 3: sweet potato pie, well, for you is probably pumpkin, maybe apple,
• 3:52
  Speaker 3: but you can't be flighting up the districts. Then all
• 3:54
  Speaker 3: of a sudden, just randomly, you discover color blindness when
• 3:58
  Speaker 3: black people start getting up political representation. And this is
• 4:01
  Speaker 3: why black people don't trust politicians.
• 4:03
  Speaker 1: Okay.
• 4:03
  Speaker 3: America has a long history of moving the goalposts. Anytime
• 4:07
  Speaker 3: black folks figure out how to play the game, they invented. Okay,
• 4:10
  Speaker 3: first it was literacy tests, then poll taxes. Now it's well,
• 4:14
  Speaker 3: actually protecting black voting power is racist too. We need protection,
• 4:18
  Speaker 3: Mike Johnson, Okay, I don't trust y'all to go wrong,
• 4:21
  Speaker 3: even though we've been together a long time.
• 4:22
  Speaker 1: Okay, I know you a no good, dirty hoe. Okay.
• 4:25
  Speaker 3: I would love to be settlement and I'm staying all
• 4:27
  Speaker 3: together from being in any type of relationship with you.
• 4:29
  Speaker 3: But that's not the way American politics work.
• 4:31
  Speaker 1: Okay.
• 4:32
  Speaker 3: I have to engage. And let's be clear, every district
• 4:34
  Speaker 3: has drawn strategically. Republicans do it, Democrats do it. The
• 4:39
  Speaker 3: difference is when black voters ask for districts where they
• 4:41
  Speaker 3: can actually elect somebody who represents them.
• 4:44
  Speaker 1: People think that's a problem. Okay.
• 4:46
  Speaker 3: I've seen a lot of Republicans say, well, how come
• 4:49
  Speaker 3: Republicans can't represent black people?
• 4:52
  Speaker 1: Easy answer, because historically they have shown us they don't
• 4:57
  Speaker 1: and they aren't willing to. Okay. Democrats at least have
• 4:59
  Speaker 1: show us there are willing to work with us. I
• 5:01
  Speaker 1: guess one party acts like they like us.
• 5:03
  Speaker 3: The other party don't give a damn Okay, Mike Johnson
• 5:07
  Speaker 3: and other Republicans are basically saying we should stop making
• 5:10
  Speaker 3: districts about race, Sir, race made the districts in the
• 5:14
  Speaker 3: first place.
• 5:15
  Speaker 1: Okay.
• 5:16
  Speaker 3: Race conscious districts were created because black voters were historically
• 5:20
  Speaker 3: diluted or shutout of representation.
• 5:23
  Speaker 1: That's why they calling it Jim Crow two point zero. Okay.
• 5:26
  Speaker 4: This is just.
• 5:27
  Speaker 3: Another example of how America loves to celebrate black voting
• 5:31
  Speaker 3: power right up until black voters start actually influencing power.
• 5:35
  Speaker 3: And now all of a sudden they want to start
• 5:37
  Speaker 3: using words like fairness when the reality is we needed
• 5:40
  Speaker 3: the voting rights Sack of nineteen sixty five because things
• 5:43
  Speaker 3: weren't fair for us to begin with. Please give speaker
• 5:47
  Speaker 3: the house, Mike Johnson the biggest he huh.
• 5:55
  Speaker 1: All right, yes, ma'am.
• 5:56
  Speaker 4: Well, thank you for that donkey today, sir, ma'am.
• 5:59
  Speaker 6: Now when we come back, let's open up the phone
• 6:00
  Speaker 6: lines eight hundred five eight five five one.
• 6:03
  Speaker 4: It's prom season, ladies and gentlemen.
• 6:05
  Speaker 6: I know a lot of your kids are about to
• 6:06

• 6:08
  Speaker 6: a little ridiculous.

• 6:13
  Speaker 6: some of the prom ideas and outfits and commitment that
