Why Seeing A Determined NYC In Rush Hour Gives Me Hope 2-7-24 · OneLegUpAlex Media

  Here's your host, Alex Garrett. Well, if you heard my rant on
• 0:16
  One Leg Up with Sports, I will drop that in the link below.
• 0:21
  But the One Leg Up main feature today, I have some observations I want
• 0:25
  to make here on the Alex Garrett Podcast Network. This is the first time
• 0:29
  in a while I've really seen rush hour b rush hour in New York City,
• 0:34
  and four years after we were shut down in March of twenty twenty,
• 0:40
  four years after one of the most traumatic years that was twenty twenty with nobody
• 0:45
  able to see each other games, having no fans, whatnot. I looked
• 0:51
  around on my one rollerblade and as I was skating, I looked around and
• 0:56
  I said, the group of people I see here, we look like a
• 1:00
  bunch that don't want to be stopped again, that don't want to be shut
• 1:03
  down again. We look like a bunch that wanted to just get to where
• 1:07
  we're going without government interference, don't we. I think we're sick of this
• 1:11
  shutdown mentality. I feel it. I felt it this morning when I was
• 1:18
  in a rushower that we are sick of the shutdown mentality. Today I saw
• 1:26
  a bunch of New Yorkers that were just trying to get on their way with
• 1:30
  no interference, no wine to be home, determined to get where they were
• 1:34
  going, much like before twenty twenty, And that was hopeful to me.
• 1:42
  It was hopeful because I feel like what I saw today is an indication that,
• 1:47
  no, no, you've done it once. Four years later, another
• 1:51
  election year, we won't let you do that again. That's the energy I
• 1:55
  got. The hustle and bustle is back, and we have to respect that.
• 1:59
  The government to respect that, the government has to respect that our New
• 2:02
  York, our New Yorkers, our American citizens just want to live their lives
• 2:09
  and not be shut down again. Do I believe Shenanigans will happen this election
• 2:16
  year. I'm alo traumatized from twenty twenty, so I think it will.
• 2:21
  And I just so we're stronger and less compliant this time, less willing to
• 2:29
  be shut down, less having gone there once, less amicable to it,
• 2:38
  because we can't. We can't withstand another shut Our economy cannot withstand another shutdown.
• 2:45
  Our livelihoods, our families, our lives can't withstand another lockdown like that.
• 2:54
  So while some people were just going to work and probably just observed it,
• 2:59
  as you know, people get into work. I saw it a different
• 3:01
  way. I saw it as here's a group of people determined to get where
• 3:06
  they're going, and they're not going to be stopped. Not a second time
• 3:09
  in a row for leap year, not a second time in a row during
• 3:15
  election year. I pray those that are hard working and out bustling, hustling
• 3:25
  and bustling, never stop hustling and bustling, never let anything stop them,
• 3:35
  because that would be sad. I saw a group of determined people today that
• 3:43
  are looking like they're just ready to get back to normal life, and they
• 3:46
  have gotten back to normal life. Ever to be disrupted again would be so
• 3:52
  harmful and the government would not have our back if they did that again.
• 4:00
  My other couple cents on this one leg up feature for today, Wednesday,
• 4:03
  February seventh, Well, it looks like Ronald McDaniel is gonna resign from the
• 4:11
  rn C chairmanship and that's a big deal. What's that say? Does she
• 4:17
  not want to help Trump run again? Does she not want to be part
• 4:20
  of this? I mean, what's what's that say? I think there's gonna
• 4:26
  be a lot unfolding from that, a lot unfolding from that, and then
• 4:32
  the other story to me is that Joe Biden going there and what I mean
• 4:45
  by that he literally called President McCrone, the former president of France, Mitterrand
• 4:54
  who died in nineteen ninety six. Everybody makes a big deal about Trump's health
• 5:00
  and Trump's well being and Trump's this and Trumps that, but has anybody thought
• 5:04
  to get a CT scan, a brain scan? Sorry, this is the
• 5:06
  gravest anime side of me coming at now on him to figure out where he's
• 5:14
  at, if it's even healthy for him to be leading the country. If
• 5:19
  he reverts back to remembering a president of France that died in nineteen ninety six,
• 5:27
  that should be scary to everybody. It should be, and it should
• 5:33
  be a wake up call that the White House doctors have to do something,
• 5:39
  and do something fast before his brain decides to do something that might be very
• 5:44
  harmful for this country, extremely harmful for this country, not good. And
• 5:57
  you see that the border provisions and the idea that Ukraine's getting more than Israel
• 6:09
  and the border combined is kind of sickening to me. If I'm gonna rant
• 6:13
  here for a minute on the one leg up feature. That's disturbing because we've
• 6:19
  been helping Ukraine, and luckily we have, but Israel is getting less,
• 6:25
  the border is getting less. Meanwhile, migrants are on the run that have
• 6:30
  become assailants in our own city. Do better, Chuck Schumer, it's your
• 6:38
  state that is in the grips of this. Do better. We have to,
• 6:46
  all right. That's my two cent Sinntily one leguf with Alex skartt podcast.
• 6:49
  I hope that indictments do come down for those vicious migrants that injured a
• 6:56
  criminal minds that injured NYPD officers. I hope that if they don't get any
• 7:04
  justice, the officers, governor local steps in and fires a g brag,
• 7:10
  a low brash about brag. But I have to be because someone has to
• 7:14
  stay and tough against this guy. Someone us speak out and say, hey,
• 7:16
  why are you letting these guys out and get all the way to California?
• 7:20
  What's that about? Doesn't feel right? Doesn't seem right. So someone's
• 7:27
  got to speak up on the show and make it right. Maybe the one
• 7:30
  up with Alex scare feature will that's it for now, have a great rest
• 7:34
  of your day and let's work to get it right. God bless you on
• 7:40
