- 0:47Speaker 1: piece to the planet is Tuesday. Yes, it's Tuesday, Election Day,
- 0:54Speaker 1: the final day for America to vote. That's right. We
- 0:57Speaker 1: have no idea what the world is gonna look like
- 0:59Speaker 1: after the day, but whatever happens, you have to know
- 1:02Speaker 1: it's all God's will. As my late great friend jazz
- 1:05Speaker 1: Fly used to say, trust God to God. If Republicans win,
- 1:08Speaker 1: black people got work to do. If Democrats win, black people,
- 1:11Speaker 1: we still got work to do. That's right. I don't
- 1:13Speaker 1: think anything changes because the illusion of America has been
- 1:16Speaker 1: revealed to all this year, and this system was considered
- 1:19Speaker 1: normal has never worked for all of us. So tonight,
- 1:22Speaker 1: regardless of who wins, just know it's nothing to celebrate.
- 1:25Speaker 1: We got work to do, all right. Now, let me
- 1:28Speaker 1: shout out to everybody in Atlanta. Yesterday I was in
- 1:30Speaker 1: Atlanta with McDonald's. Of course, HBCU home comings a cancel,
- 1:34Speaker 1: so McDonald's put together a play where people can then
- 1:37Speaker 1: still enjoy the HBCU home coming. So we were filming yesterday.
- 1:41Speaker 1: I actually went to work yesterday, but I was in Atlanta.
- 1:43Speaker 1: But Atlanta couldn't get the technical stuff working. So I
- 1:46Speaker 1: was at the station for nothing for about forty five
- 1:48Speaker 1: minutes to an hour. They couldn't get it working, so
- 1:49Speaker 1: I just went straight straight to set. So m well,
- 1:52Speaker 1: then President Obama in Atlanta yesterday and Obama and Biden.
- 1:56Speaker 1: I think I know Obama was there. I don't know
- 1:58Speaker 1: about Biden. I don't know about I know I wasn't
- 2:00Speaker 1: uh in Atlanta yesterday. So Atlanta was crazy. Was it
- 2:03Speaker 1: was jam packing that flew back late last night? Uh,
- 2:06Speaker 1: when I was on the plane, I was watching the
- 2:08Speaker 1: game and I thought that the Giants were gonna win.
- 2:11Speaker 1: I was like, think there's something the Giants gonna win
- 2:13Speaker 1: the game. But no, they they they proved me wrong again.
- 2:17Speaker 1: They didn't They didn't know they weren't gonna win pretty much.
- 2:20Speaker 1: They actually better than people. Still lost, doesn't matter you
- 2:27Speaker 1: almost one thing for you. You know, there's no almost
- 2:31Speaker 1: in football. We're not gonna say that about nobody to night.
- 2:33Speaker 1: Joe Biden almost one. We almost won a fight. I
- 2:39Speaker 1: don't know if a win it's going to be declared tonight.
- 2:41Speaker 1: We don't know that yet. Not as possible. It's possible
- 2:43Speaker 1: depending on depending where states come in, because I mean,
- 2:48Speaker 1: you know the states to really watch North Carolina, Iowa,
- 2:52Speaker 1: and what's the other one, No, Florida, Florida. North Carolina, Iowa,
- 2:57Speaker 1: and Florida, because those three always come in on election day.
- 3:00Speaker 1: And you know, if if Joe Biden wins those three,
- 3:03Speaker 1: it's really no path to victory for Donald Trump. There's
- 3:06Speaker 1: a county in New Hampton that's already declared that Joe
- 3:09Speaker 1: Biden is a winner. Yeah. So if North Carolina, North Carolina, Iowa,
- 3:14Speaker 1: and Florida, if Joe Biden runs the table on all
- 3:16Speaker 1: three of those, US more than likely be the next
- 3:19Speaker 1: president of the United States of America. Okay, well, um ya,

- 17:11Speaker 1: dollars back in and he was ordered to pay that
- 17:14Speaker 1: in December, and the judge said there was an Instagram
- 17:17Speaker 1: video that showed him holding large stacks of money after
- 17:20Speaker 1: saying that he had over just over thirteen dollars in
- 17:23Speaker 1: cash back on October fifth in court. So the judge
- 17:26Speaker 1: has ordered that he has to remain in jail until
- 17:30Speaker 1: to provide complete that truthful information about his finances to
- 17:34Speaker 1: the woman's attorney. Now, Adrian Brona was in court, and
- 17:38Speaker 1: here's what he had to say. Friends I got friends
- 17:42Speaker 1: were the money because I listen, because listen, and when
- 17:54Speaker 1: that moment to them, and now that tells you sending
- 18:01Speaker 1: me money my friends, and I think, God, I've never
- 18:10Speaker 1: had that peacock geane. My dad instilled that me and
- 18:13Speaker 1: me early. My dad always told me it's better to
- 18:15Speaker 1: have money than to look like you have money. He
- 18:16Speaker 1: actually would point out old white men growing up in
- 18:18Speaker 1: Mount Corner and how plain they would dress, and he'd
- 18:21Speaker 1: be like, say he's rich and you would never know.
- 18:23Speaker 1: And that's always been my mindset. It's way too much
- 18:24Speaker 1: pressure being like brothers like a b because when you
- 18:27Speaker 1: fall off boy, everybody though, and you end up looking
- 18:30Speaker 1: at sounding like that. Well it got even worse. Listen
- 18:33Speaker 1: to this, I don't sending you da listen, but showing
- 18:48Speaker 1: that you didn't have any financi damn Yearney, I spend it.
- 18:54Speaker 1: I send it on this don't about bills song. Right now,
- 19:00Speaker 1: that's what he didn't aft up right, you know, you
- 19:02Speaker 1: don't left up right, and just he just oh my goodness,
- 19:04Speaker 1: I couldn't really hear what he said. I just heard
- 19:06Speaker 1: him say that he bought Bill. I watched that video
- 19:08Speaker 1: about one hundred time yesterday. I'm trying to figure out
- 19:10Speaker 1: why ab looked like saucy Santana, Like he built like
- 19:13Speaker 1: saucy Santana in that court room, just showing all that shape?
- 19:15Speaker 1: Are you showing all that shape for that quest? That's
- 19:17Speaker 1: Santana is falling all right now. Adrian Browner also says
- 19:21Speaker 1: that he can pay, but he has a fight coming up.
- 19:24Speaker 1: He got to wait till after that. I got coming
- 19:26Speaker 1: over first. I don't take you that long usual questions.
- 19:32Speaker 1: That's your relevance feet. You know what, I'm not here
- 19:34Speaker 1: to listen. He has to say, I'm gonna give you
- 19:36Speaker 1: the money here and there and disregard every court order
- 19:39Speaker 1: in the UTU. This is a problem with Ruder because
- 19:42Speaker 1: you would ignore basically every order I've given here and now.
- 19:46Speaker 1: There isn't punishment. I giving you extensions like you give
- 19:49Speaker 1: you time. I trust you're gonna get the stone well
- 19:51Speaker 1: before you're cheating herd fire. Look see this is the thing.
- 19:54Speaker 1: I don't like that, though, and I'm gonna tell you why.
- 19:56Speaker 1: Even though he was. He was, he was flaussed and
- 19:57Speaker 1: he was capping online. That's all he had to say.
- 20:00Speaker 1: It's not my money. Look, I was just I was fronting,
- 20:02Speaker 1: but I have a fight. He can't make money unless
- 20:04Speaker 1: he fights. That's the whole thing. Like he's not he
- 20:07Speaker 1: doesn't have a nine to five. It's nine to five
- 20:09Speaker 1: is boxing. First of all, stop making excuses. That situation
- 20:12Speaker 1: is sad. Okay, it's absolutely no reason for a b
- 20:15Speaker 1: to be in that position other than m he just
- 20:18Speaker 1: doesn't understand financial literacy, but he is. He can't can't
- 20:21Speaker 1: bring it back. It's not like you'd be like I
- 20:23Speaker 1: made a mistake. I can. If you can't flash the
- 20:25Speaker 1: money on Instagram and you wantn't his money money and
- 20:27Speaker 1: you're saying you don't have it, stop fronting it. If
- 20:30Speaker 1: you can borrow money to that and if you know
- 20:32Speaker 1: and you should have worked out a payment plan whatever
- 20:33Speaker 1: it is that you have to do, but you just
- 20:35Speaker 1: can't flash it on Instagram, whether or not it's his.
- 20:38Speaker 1: It's just not a smart thing to do. Like, why
- 20:40Speaker 1: would you put yourself in harm's way like that, because
- 20:42Speaker 1: not only do you have legal issues you gotta deal with,
- 20:44Speaker 1: Like we see him in the court. You got wolves
- 20:46Speaker 1: out here that are trying to take your head off
- 20:47Speaker 1: or something that's not even yours. Come on and be
- 20:50Speaker 1: keeping rail if you want to judgment against someone. And
- 20:52Speaker 1: then they said they don't have the money, but then
- 20:54Speaker 1: they're flashing all this money on Instagram, you would be like, Okay,
- 20:57Speaker 1: they have it, and whether or not God this of
- 21:00Speaker 1: what is for who gave it to him? You just
- 21:02Speaker 1: can't be on the Graham doing that. That probably wasn't
- 21:05Speaker 1: his money. He was probably fronted to get some lights
- 21:07Speaker 1: like you see people do that all the time, but
- 21:11Speaker 1: not when you have a judgment against you and you
- 21:13Speaker 1: just said in court two weeks ago or whatever that
- 21:16Speaker 1: you don't have it. Listen, envy a sensitive ath let
- 21:19Speaker 1: him let that man owe him some money and he
- 21:21Speaker 1: see him on the Graham like that. Over nine Mary Jay,
- 21:27Speaker 1: what's the fall one one? You're gonna be calling everyone
- 21:30Speaker 1: one you know trying to get your money. Please. I
- 21:32Speaker 1: hope Adrian Brona does get it together. But that just
- 21:34Speaker 1: wasn't a smart thing to do. All right now, Freeway,
- 21:37Speaker 1: thank Joe Biden after Joe Biden consultant following his son's death.
- 21:41Speaker 1: This was all at Joe Biden's rally and Philly and
- 21:45Speaker 1: even though Freeways Oh the Sun passed away last week,
- 21:48Speaker 1: he still went to the rally and still performed as
- 21:51Speaker 1: part of the entertainment. So here is what happened. Start
- 22:01Speaker 1: broke from the Boston Start I a paring to burn.
- 22:05Speaker 1: So I'll tell you what. Yeah, that was classic only
- 22:17Speaker 1: all right. Freeway responded on social media, said, me and
- 22:20Speaker 1: my brother Oskina both lost our sons in the same
- 22:22Speaker 1: week to abiding thank you for the kind words. I know,
- 22:25Speaker 1: I know you know the pain that comes with losing
- 22:27Speaker 1: a son. We are from two totally different worlds, but
- 22:29Speaker 1: we can relate to each other. You have my vote
- 22:31Speaker 1: on Tuesday. The only thing I wish is when they
- 22:33Speaker 1: are prepping Joe to do those shot outs, give them
- 22:36Speaker 1: the right way to say it. Okay, you don't have
- 22:37Speaker 1: to pronounce the whole Rapper Nation Philadelphia Freeway. Okay, at
- 22:42Speaker 1: least say free from Philly Freeway from Philly somethings. Jesus, Yeah,
- 22:47Speaker 1: it's beending a little pimp though, make it sound organic.
- 22:49Speaker 1: It is better than little Pip though, it is better
- 22:51Speaker 1: than little Pip, and that really neither one of them
- 22:53Speaker 1: know they're talking about. Let make it sound a little
- 22:54Speaker 1: mo organic. That's all right, all right, well I'm Angela, yeah,
- 22:59Speaker 1: and that is your rumor reports. All right, thank you,
- 23:02Speaker 1: miss Yee. All right now, when we come back, we
- 23:05Speaker 1: have the brother Ed Gordon check it in. We got
- 23:08Speaker 1: a lot to talk about today. Of course today is
- 23:09Speaker 1: the election day, so we'll talk to Ed Gordon when
- 23:12Speaker 1: we come back. Don't move. It's to Breakfast Club. Good morning,
- 23:15Speaker 1: So Breakfast Club, your mornings will never be the same.
- 23:19Speaker 1: When a training a vehicle at a railway crossing, the
- 23:21Speaker 1: results are often deadly. Be cautious at crossings, and if
- 23:25Speaker 1: the signals are going, don't be tempted to try and
- 23:27Speaker 1: sneak across the tracks. Even if you don't see your
- 23:29Speaker 1: train stop. Trains can't brought to you by NITZA morning.
- 23:34Speaker 1: Everybody is DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlomagne the guy. We
- 23:37Speaker 1: are the Breakfast Club. Usually we do front page news
- 23:40Speaker 1: right now, but we got the brother Ed Gordon on
- 23:43Speaker 1: the line. Good morning, sir, Good morning, Good morning Ed.
- 23:46Speaker 1: How are you my brother? I'm good man, how are
- 23:48Speaker 1: you feeling? I'm blessed black and holly favored. I know
- 23:51Speaker 1: you've seen a feudis in your lifetime, man, None quite
- 23:54Speaker 1: like this though. So so what you think the world
- 23:57Speaker 1: gonna look like after the day? Man? You know? I
- 24:00Speaker 1: I pray that the world looks like that. We will
- 24:04Speaker 1: pull that moving van up to the White House and
- 24:06Speaker 1: get this idiot out of the oval. As I like
- 24:08Speaker 1: to say, you know, throughout my career, I have never
- 24:11Speaker 1: come out against publicly any president who sat in office,
- 24:15Speaker 1: even those that I disagreed with vehementley on a policy side.
- 24:19Speaker 1: But this man is dangerous. We've been saying it now
- 24:22Speaker 1: for four years. Dangerous, incompetent. He has appointed all of
- 24:27Speaker 1: these federal judges, all the things that we've said that
- 24:29Speaker 1: will affect us long before he leaves, whether he leaves
- 24:32Speaker 1: in January of twenty twenty one or whether he leaves
- 24:35Speaker 1: in another four years. He has impacted our lives negatively
- 24:39Speaker 1: for a long, long time. Man, So we got to
- 24:41Speaker 1: get out there. I posted a article on bt dot
- 24:46Speaker 1: com yesterday, and I'm still amazed that the black folks
- 24:48Speaker 1: who sometimes say just pushing people to vote is putting
- 24:53Speaker 1: too much on our community. Why is everybody you know
- 24:56Speaker 1: blaming us for the vote. Why is everybody suggesting that
- 24:59Speaker 1: it's up to us. It is up to us. You know,
- 25:02Speaker 1: this is one of the few times that we really
- 25:05Speaker 1: have the opportunity to have a push in a sway
- 25:08Speaker 1: and how our lives are affected in this nation. And
- 25:11Speaker 1: so anybody who was in these swing states, who is
- 25:15Speaker 1: registered and has yet to vote needs to get out online.
- 25:20Speaker 1: You know, when we lost CT Vivian and John Lewis,
- 25:22Speaker 1: we all talked about their legacy and what we were
- 25:24Speaker 1: going to do. Well, no better way to salute those
- 25:27Speaker 1: men than to vote today. And we're talking about the
- 25:30Speaker 1: states like Michigan, George of Florida, North Carolina, and Ohio
- 25:35Speaker 1: of the means, when we really need Florida black people
- 25:37Speaker 1: to get out there in Pennsylvania, Kelly, Philly's got to
- 25:41Speaker 1: turn out, Pittsburgh turnout. We gotta do this now. Also,
- 25:44Speaker 1: you're hosting a special or NAACP to host a two
- 25:47Speaker 1: day special talking about the black voter experience. And we
- 25:50Speaker 1: were telling people they gotta be careful go with each
- 25:52Speaker 1: other because they're gonna be trying to intimidate us like crazy.
- 25:55Speaker 1: Talk about that a little bit. That's right. I've been
- 25:58Speaker 1: doing these and Charlemagne was part of one of them.
- 26:01Speaker 1: These town hall meetings throughout the pandemic for the NAACP,
- 26:04Speaker 1: and so we wanted to do something on election night.
- 26:07Speaker 1: You know, CNN we'll have great coverage, MS will have
- 26:10Speaker 1: great coverage. But we also wanted to give us an
- 26:14Speaker 1: opportunity to give what we says. What we say is unfettered, um,
- 26:19Speaker 1: you know, black perspective. And so from seven to midnight,
- 26:23Speaker 1: and we may go a little longer, I'll be on
- 26:25Speaker 1: anchoring with Derek Johnson. He'll be coming in and out.
- 26:29Speaker 1: CEO of the NDAAC people. We got people like Michael,
- 26:31Speaker 1: Eric Dyson, and Jamal Hill, d L. Hughley will be
- 26:34Speaker 1: on with us. You know, the list goes on and on,
- 26:38Speaker 1: and we'll be talking about you know, where we sit
- 26:41Speaker 1: throughout the evening. We'll have elected official. We'll also be
- 26:44Speaker 1: taking phone calls. You know, we want to hear from people.
- 26:46Speaker 1: If voter intimidation is going on, we need to hear it.
- 26:48Speaker 1: DACP is going to dispatch people to these polls. So
- 26:52Speaker 1: you know, we're gonna do as much as we can
- 26:53Speaker 1: to be protective of, you know, our ability to get
- 26:56Speaker 1: out there because it's go time. It's time. You know,
- 27:00Speaker 1: I'm with you on getting this fascist out the White House, right,
- 27:03Speaker 1: But I don't think that. I don't think what the
- 27:05Speaker 1: Democrats are doing is a sustainable model because when you
- 27:07Speaker 1: think about the base of the Democratic Party, black women,
- 27:10Speaker 1: black men, them stand deludes us because every presidential election
- 27:14Speaker 1: is the same thing. Short up for Democrats, you know,
- 27:17Speaker 1: But when they're gonna show up for us is a question.
- 27:19Speaker 1: So many black people keep asking. Right, two things that
- 27:21Speaker 1: I will agree with you one thousand percent. One of
- 27:25Speaker 1: the problems is Democrats have been outplayed politically for years
- 27:28Speaker 1: and years and years. You know, when you have numbers
- 27:32Speaker 1: every time you go into an election, but somehow you
- 27:35Speaker 1: can't turn those numbers out to defeat your opponents. Something's wrong.
- 27:39Speaker 1: The other thing is it's an incumbent upon us to
- 27:43Speaker 1: make sure that we start playing the game past election day.
- 27:46Speaker 1: You know, too many of us state election day is
- 27:49Speaker 1: your last day. You did your duty and now you
- 27:51Speaker 1: walk away and you wait for things to happen. Election
- 27:54Speaker 1: day should be day one for you, particularly if your
- 27:57Speaker 1: candidate gets in office, because the own the reason that
- 28:00Speaker 1: Joe Biden won the nomination is because of black folks
- 28:03Speaker 1: in South Carolina. No if fans of Butts had he
- 28:07Speaker 1: lost that it's over, he's done, you know. So what
- 28:10Speaker 1: we've got to do is make sure that we play
- 28:12Speaker 1: the game beyond tonight, particularly if Biden wins. And so
- 28:18Speaker 1: I agree with you one thousand percent, though, Democrats are
- 28:21Speaker 1: going to have to find a new model and a
- 28:23Speaker 1: new way of doing things. And we can no longer
- 28:26Speaker 1: the accepting of you know, the cliche of them showing
- 28:29Speaker 1: up at a black church every four years, you know,
- 28:32Speaker 1: giving us hugs and you know, putting a couple of
- 28:34Speaker 1: dollars in the plate and we're happy. And to the
- 28:37Speaker 1: CBC and black leaders, I say, it's not enough for
- 28:41Speaker 1: you to be just invited to the Christmas party at
- 28:45Speaker 1: the White House and you know, take pictures in the
- 28:48Speaker 1: Rose Garden and you're cool with that. You know, we've
- 28:51Speaker 1: been struggling as community for far too long, for far
- 28:54Speaker 1: too long. It's unacceptable for us to take any leader black, white,
- 28:58Speaker 1: or otherwise, you know, take us for granted anymore. But
- 29:01Speaker 1: we're talking to Ed Gordon and you mentioned the first
- 29:04Speaker 1: day it should be when the president starts. So if
- 29:06Speaker 1: Biden wins, what would you want for him for Black
- 29:09Speaker 1: Americans for the first let's say, the first year of
- 29:12Speaker 1: first hundred days. I mean, you know, and I never
- 29:15Speaker 1: I never look at that. That's that artificial number media
- 29:17Speaker 1: made up. We'd like to look at the first hundred days.
- 29:19Speaker 1: You look at most people's first hundred days. They don't
- 29:21Speaker 1: do a damn thing in those first hundred days. What
- 29:23Speaker 1: I would like, though, is I'm again placing it more
- 29:26Speaker 1: on our leadership to have asks, you know, what are
- 29:30Speaker 1: we walking in in those first hundred days and say,
- 29:32Speaker 1: you know, this is what we want, this is what
- 29:35Speaker 1: we want for our vote. Um. And you know, part
- 29:37Speaker 1: of the issue with any group is who goes in
- 29:40Speaker 1: and makes that ask. You know, back in the day,
- 29:43Speaker 1: and we were never in lockstep. It was never one leader.
- 29:46Speaker 1: It was never that we all followed King, never that
- 29:49Speaker 1: we all followed Malcolm or Marcus or anyone. But there
- 29:54Speaker 1: were there were groups that had more of a sway
- 29:57Speaker 1: and it was a more a singular thing out of
- 30:00Speaker 1: where where we're going. We got desperate asked, now, uh,
- 30:03Speaker 1: you know, these these leaders are going to have to
- 30:05Speaker 1: determine to a great degree amongst themselves. Um. And part
- 30:09Speaker 1: of that it's just you know, political and who's networked
- 30:12Speaker 1: and who's closer. But what are you going in and
- 30:14Speaker 1: ask for uh, you know, and I think that we
- 30:17Speaker 1: have to look at for me. Police reform, real police
- 30:21Speaker 1: reform with teeth is something that impacts all of us.
- 30:25Speaker 1: You know, I'm sixty years old. Man. If I throw
- 30:28Speaker 1: this hoodie up and I ride in a car, I
- 30:31Speaker 1: could be pulled over, shot and killed by police because
- 30:36Speaker 1: you look thirty. Well, I don't know if I look
- 30:38Speaker 1: at thirty, bro, I appreciate it. But but the idea
- 30:41Speaker 1: that you know, we used to say, oh, young black
- 30:43Speaker 1: men are in danger. We're all in danger man. Right.
- 30:45Speaker 1: You got a look the little bit of melon and
- 30:48Speaker 1: I got rolling. I'm in danger, right. So we have
- 30:51Speaker 1: to make sure that we do not take this any longer.
- 30:55Speaker 1: You know, we've been silent and docile too long, and
- 30:58Speaker 1: it's time for us to keep this up. You know.
- 31:01Speaker 1: I just did an interview with Felonious Floyd, George Floyd's brother,
- 31:05Speaker 1: and he got emotionally said, mister Gordon, you know I'm struggling.
- 31:10Speaker 1: I'm struggling, and we as a community continue to struggle,
- 31:13Speaker 1: and we've got to back one another up, you know,
- 31:16Speaker 1: I mean literally stand back to back and keep each
- 31:19Speaker 1: other's back, and we can no longer, you know, be
- 31:23Speaker 1: sideline and sidetracked by the foolishness. We've been sideline and
- 31:26Speaker 1: sidetrack for too long. Yeah, for all of us who
- 31:29Speaker 1: got platforms voices, it's up to us to connect with
- 31:31Speaker 1: folks who are already doing the work and help them
- 31:33Speaker 1: push those demands they're making, you know, whether it's on
- 31:36Speaker 1: a local level, national level, whatever. Yeah, we talked to
- 31:40Speaker 1: Amanda Seals. It'll be on tonight during our coverage and
- 31:44Speaker 1: you can find that coverage on the end up ACP
- 31:47Speaker 1: social platforms, on my Facebook page, Bounces carrying it on
- 31:50Speaker 1: their digital channels. It'll be all over and you go
- 31:53Speaker 1: to my Instagram and ed L Gordon and get the information.
- 31:56Speaker 1: But Amanda said the exact same thing. She said, Look,
- 31:58Speaker 1: I've got a platform now. She said it in the
- 32:02Speaker 1: in the interview that she's a learned woman from Colombia,
- 32:04Speaker 1: has studied policy and the like. She said, But my
- 32:08Speaker 1: but she said, you know, I'm not an organizer, I'm
- 32:10Speaker 1: not a politician. I'm not but I have a platform.
- 32:12Speaker 1: And he's absolutely right, man. You know, those of us
- 32:15Speaker 1: who have you know, been blessed with a platform need
- 32:17Speaker 1: to utilize it with the right people. You know, and
- 32:20Speaker 1: and look, you know, rappers have every bit, actors have
- 32:24Speaker 1: every bit, singers have every bit, the right to have
- 32:27Speaker 1: a voice, but that does not mean you follow them.
- 32:31Speaker 1: For you know, uh, you know your your political insight,
- 32:35Speaker 1: quote unquote. You can if you choose, but you know,
- 32:39Speaker 1: I don't want to do that. God bless them all,
- 32:43Speaker 1: but I don't want to put our future in their hands.
- 32:45Speaker 1: I agree with you. All right, Well, we appreciate you
- 32:48Speaker 1: for checking in, brother, Thank you so much. Shank you

- 33:32Speaker 1: really really good. How are you, guys? I'm blessed Black
- 33:35Speaker 1: and Holly favorite. Leaning into the uncertainty of the week.
- 33:38Speaker 1: We don't know what the world gonna look like after
- 33:40Speaker 1: after this election. We're nervous, are you really? You know what?
- 33:45Speaker 1: One of the one thing that we know for sure
- 33:46Speaker 1: is the day after the election doesn't change for us,
- 33:50Speaker 1: you know, those of us who have been pushing on,
- 33:51Speaker 1: pushing on the ground, pushing for a black agenda, pushing
- 33:55Speaker 1: for the importance of a black vote. We also know
- 33:58Speaker 1: that everybody going to work for sure, you know. I
- 34:00Speaker 1: know there's a lot of you know, hysteria about what's
- 34:02Speaker 1: gonna happen. Well, a lot of y'all gonna be clocking
- 34:04Speaker 1: in just like you clock in every other day. You're
- 34:06Speaker 1: gonna pay your bills just like you do every other week,
- 34:09Speaker 1: you know. So I think it's really important that people
- 34:11Speaker 1: kind of take a pause and just kind of sit
- 34:13Speaker 1: back and reflect. You know, there's so much going on
- 34:15Speaker 1: in two twenty. I lost a grandmother, great grandmother on
- 34:19Speaker 1: last Friday. And when I think about and reflect, you
- 34:22Speaker 1: know how time is not promised to anybody, And I'm
- 34:26Speaker 1: really just over the hysterias, Charlemagne, you know what I mean.
- 34:29Speaker 1: I'm ready to get it over with, probably not for
- 34:32Speaker 1: the reasons that would be ideal, but really just so
- 34:36Speaker 1: everybody can calm down. My grandmother's eighty nine, and I
- 34:40Speaker 1: can't be on the phone with her five or ten
- 34:41Speaker 1: minutes without a talking about Trump. My aunt is sixty five.
- 34:44Speaker 1: I can't be on the phone with her five or
- 34:46Speaker 1: two minutes without here talking about Trump. So people are
- 34:48Speaker 1: just at such a high level of anxiety that I'm
- 34:51Speaker 1: just ready for it to be over with so that
- 34:53Speaker 1: we can kind of reassess and move forward. I feel
- 34:55Speaker 1: you're on that tasing because my parents came over this
- 34:58Speaker 1: weekend and Isaac, can y'all not talk about that for
- 35:00Speaker 1: like five minutes? My dad non stop text messages, like
- 35:04Speaker 1: family group text messages. It's all like articles and posts
- 35:08Speaker 1: about Donald Trump. And it's kind of like, well, it's
- 35:11Speaker 1: a lot, you know, And it depends on who you
- 35:13Speaker 1: talked to, what news you watch, what news doatlet you
- 35:15Speaker 1: watch you here a different things. Yeah, it's a lot.
- 35:19Speaker 1: I always wanted everybody to be up up, you know
- 35:21Speaker 1: when we say stay woke. But I'm kind of ready
- 35:23Speaker 1: for some people to come back to sleep for real.
- 35:25Speaker 1: You know. Now I wanted everybody involved, but I kind
- 35:28Speaker 1: of changed my mind. Some people need to go back
- 35:30Speaker 1: to sleep. Yeah, some of these people so woke that
- 35:32Speaker 1: they tired. They need some sleep. So they're not even
- 35:34Speaker 1: thinking straight no more, they're not even talking straight no more. Right,
- 35:38Speaker 1: what are your predictions for the election time? You know,
- 35:42Speaker 1: I keep saying it belonged to the streets. You know,
- 35:44Speaker 1: I think none of us, none of us can really
- 35:47Speaker 1: predict anything because we did that and well I didn't,
- 35:49Speaker 1: but a lot of folks did that in twenty sixteen
- 35:52Speaker 1: and we saw the predictions are wrong. What I've been
- 35:54Speaker 1: focusing on, Charlemagne, is actually looking at the data, early
- 35:58Speaker 1: voting data. You know. So when we look at early
- 36:00Speaker 1: voting data, Democrats are coming ahead. You know, there's a
- 36:03Speaker 1: conversation saying that Pennsylvania, the black vote needs to get out,
- 36:07Speaker 1: needs to do more hashtag. We will not be blaming
- 36:09Speaker 1: black men, and we certainly won't be blaming black voters.
- 36:12Speaker 1: But when I look at the actual data Democrats they
- 36:15Speaker 1: putting in work, you know, I believe the last time
- 36:18Speaker 1: I looked at us, over between fifty and sixty percent
- 36:21Speaker 1: of those in Pennsylvania with only a little bit over
- 36:24Speaker 1: twenty percent of Republicans. Does that mean a flood won't
- 36:28Speaker 1: come in between you know, today and tomorrow. Does it
- 36:30Speaker 1: mean that people won't show up on election day? Of
- 36:33Speaker 1: course there's still that possibility. But based on the data,
- 36:36Speaker 1: Democrats are coming ahead. But we can't just assume that
- 36:39Speaker 1: everybody's a Democrat and votes Democrat. What if some of
- 36:41Speaker 1: these Democrats on board with Trump. What if the twenty
- 36:45Speaker 1: percent of the Republicans you see turning in a ballots
- 36:48Speaker 1: in Pennsylvania, what if they riding with Biden. So we
- 36:52Speaker 1: can't take things for granted. And that's what the biggest
- 36:55Speaker 1: lesson of twenty twenty is, which we still didn't learn
- 36:57Speaker 1: in two thousand and sixteen, is that no vote can
- 37:00Speaker 1: be taken for granted at anytime. So I'm just not
- 37:02Speaker 1: predicting anything except I know on the fourth, the day after,
- 37:05Speaker 1: I'm getting back to work doing the things that I've
- 37:07Speaker 1: been doing for the last twenty years. Now sad people,
- 37:09Speaker 1: I think by the fourth will already know the outcome.
- 37:11Speaker 1: But of course they're still going to be ballots that
- 37:13Speaker 1: have to be counted, right, So can you break that
- 37:16Speaker 1: down like when will we know who won the election? Sure,
- 37:20Speaker 1: you remember in Iowa during the Democrat primary when there
- 37:23Speaker 1: was a big mix up about who won the election.
- 37:25Speaker 1: We still don't know. It's amazing that nobody brings it
- 37:28Speaker 1: up like that just totally just went away. So I
- 37:31Speaker 1: can't tell you because looking at Iowa again, big issue
- 37:35Speaker 1: during the Democrat primary, we never really found out who wins.
- 37:38Speaker 1: There was also suspicion about New Hampshire, what mayor Pete
- 37:42Speaker 1: and Bernie Sanderson who won that? So I really don't know.
- 37:46Speaker 1: It is so much of a it's gonna depend where
- 37:48Speaker 1: it is, how much influence that vote has, what they
- 37:52Speaker 1: can contest in the courts, how fast the courts get
- 37:55Speaker 1: through that. If we ever get an answer, if it
- 37:57Speaker 1: is decidedly won by either Trump or Biden, we can
- 38:01Speaker 1: kind of go on with our lives and let them
- 38:03Speaker 1: flush all of that out. It's really gonna come down
- 38:05Speaker 1: to how close it is and where that state, you know,
- 38:09Speaker 1: where it actually happened, on how we're going to be
- 38:11Speaker 1: able to move. So I'm hoping for a decidedly win,
- 38:14Speaker 1: you know, a straight up landslide, no question about it,
- 38:17Speaker 1: This is the winner, so that we can kind of
- 38:19Speaker 1: move on. But I think we all agree that don't
- 38:21Speaker 1: matter what the result is, if it's not in Trump's favor,
- 38:24Speaker 1: he will be contesting. And I think we all know
- 38:26Speaker 1: that for sure. We don't know nothing else. Yeah, you know,
- 38:28Speaker 1: regardless of the outcome. And you've you've mentioned this a
- 38:31Speaker 1: couple of times, like what should black people be doing
- 38:33Speaker 1: after this election? Because that's what I think people don't understand.
- 38:36Speaker 1: Regards of who wins, black people still going to be
- 38:38Speaker 1: in a certain condition in this country. What should we
- 38:40Speaker 1: be doing after this election? That's absolutely correct talking speaking
- 38:45Speaker 1: from our brother, good brother killer Mike about planning, plot
- 38:47Speaker 1: and strategizing, organizing. Also, our Black Party, which is a
- 38:52Speaker 1: group you know that a lot of us has tapped
- 38:54Speaker 1: into to support. That is an organization that is a
- 38:57Speaker 1: pack of nonpartisan organization that is focused on a black agenda.
- 39:02Speaker 1: Ballot down candidates really important with putting black folks in office,
- 39:06Speaker 1: but not just black because you're black, but those who
- 39:08Speaker 1: are actually supporting the agenda. That's a good organization. I
- 39:11Speaker 1: think people really need to connect to something. It's kind
- 39:14Speaker 1: of like after the election that high goals down and
- 39:18Speaker 1: we never really capitalize on it. After two thousand and
- 39:21Speaker 1: eight and twenty twelve, people just celebrated, they drank the
- 39:25Speaker 1: champagne and then it went flat. And so when you
- 39:28Speaker 1: look at Florida, which is my political stomping ground, just
- 39:30Speaker 1: using that as an example, when those folks you know,
- 39:33Speaker 1: just kind of when flat and started celebrating, it is
- 39:36Speaker 1: why Andrew Gilliam wasn't able to still win like that matters.
- 39:39Speaker 1: He came close, but it would have been so much
- 39:41Speaker 1: closer if a Democrat Party had invested in candidates, you know,
- 39:45Speaker 1: in the Democrat Party, if they invested in operations on
- 39:48Speaker 1: the ground. The hard truth of the matter is Florida
- 39:51Speaker 1: is now an issue because you don't spend money with
- 39:54Speaker 1: black media, you do not spend money on black consultants.
- 39:57Speaker 1: You do not, you know, invest in the hood person,
- 40:00Speaker 1: you know, to get actual organizers on the ground, Be
- 40:02Speaker 1: quite honest with you. Mike Bloomberg doing the Democrat primary
- 40:05Speaker 1: was one of the few that actually invested that was
- 40:07Speaker 1: giving people money in their pockets on the street to
- 40:10Speaker 1: go out and push his campaign. But obviously he didn't
- 40:12Speaker 1: make it through the Democrat primary. So those types of
- 40:14Speaker 1: things have to happen year over year over year in
- 40:17Speaker 1: order for it to push up to the top. And
- 40:20Speaker 1: so I'm hoping that you just latch onto something. You
- 40:23Speaker 1: don't have to agree with my position, you don't have
- 40:25Speaker 1: to agree with our Black Party or what Killer Mike
- 40:28Speaker 1: says or whoever's out there, but it latch onto something
- 40:31Speaker 1: because if not, then you lose that a journaline and
- 40:33Speaker 1: we have to start all the way over in another
- 40:36Speaker 1: four years, all the way from the start. So one
- 40:38Speaker 1: thing Trump has done is woke a lot of folks up.
- 40:40Speaker 1: For sure, it may have been a splash of cold water,
- 40:45Speaker 1: you know, the way you don't want to wake up.
- 40:47Speaker 1: It wasn't a general wake up, wake up, but it
- 40:49Speaker 1: was a splash of cold water. And so I'm hoping
- 40:51Speaker 1: that people really get involved the day after all, we
- 40:54Speaker 1: have more with Teslain, figure out when we come back,
- 40:56Speaker 1: don't move. It's the Breakfast Club, Good morning morning. Everybody
- 40:58Speaker 1: is st. V Angela yee. Charlomagne, the guy we are
- 41:02Speaker 1: the Breakfast Club was still kicking it with Tesla and
- 41:04Speaker 1: Figaro yee. How do you explain these hip hop artists
- 41:08Speaker 1: like a Little Wind or a Waka Flocka who are
- 41:11Speaker 1: coming forward and put in their support behind Donald Trump.
- 41:14Speaker 1: I've been talking about hip hop and politics for the
- 41:16Speaker 1: last decade plus, and I was told by elected officials
- 41:21Speaker 1: that it was a waste of time that nobody pays
- 41:24Speaker 1: attention to that demographic, nobody listens to hip hop artists
- 41:27Speaker 1: and so forth. I ran for office for about three
- 41:29Speaker 1: months and immediately got off the ballot. But when I
- 41:33Speaker 1: was on office, when I ran for office with three months,
- 41:35Speaker 1: I involved hip hop in my campaign, from music to
- 41:39Speaker 1: outreach to really going towards that demographic that is not
- 41:43Speaker 1: quote unquote the supervoter. I have always said that if
- 41:47Speaker 1: you ignore certain demographic for too long, they're gonna show out.
- 41:50Speaker 1: Let's just look at any relationship. You don't take care
- 41:52Speaker 1: of your woman, you never take her out, you never
- 41:54Speaker 1: spend money on her, your sexist trash. Well, eventually, at
- 41:59Speaker 1: some point, what is she going to do? Either leave
- 42:01Speaker 1: you or she's gonna step out. That is the reality
- 42:03Speaker 1: of all relationships. So when you look at a demographic
- 42:06Speaker 1: that has been ignored year over year over year over
- 42:09Speaker 1: year over year, and some of these rappers, I'm just
- 42:12Speaker 1: gonna keep it all the way, really straight shot, with
- 42:13Speaker 1: no chaser. These candidates have said they were going to
- 42:16Speaker 1: call them and make a connection and they didn't. Now,
- 42:18Speaker 1: I'm not gonna throw out folks names because it's their
- 42:20Speaker 1: business to tell. But when you do that, people start
- 42:23Speaker 1: a feeling some type of way. You can't just keep
- 42:26Speaker 1: ignoring a certain demographic and say, oh, well, anybody listening
- 42:30Speaker 1: a little Wayne, anybody listening to an Ice que Well,
- 42:32Speaker 1: why is it that they've been trending for days? Somebody
- 42:35Speaker 1: listening to somebody? You can't ignore somebody that has a
- 42:38Speaker 1: reach to touch millions of people and to make people
- 42:41Speaker 1: react like that. What Al Sharpton is saying that this
- 42:44Speaker 1: is no disrespect. I'm just keeping it like, keeping it real,
- 42:47Speaker 1: Al Sharpton, what he's saying, it's not trending. What a
- 42:50Speaker 1: lot of these commentators are saying, are not trending. What
- 42:53Speaker 1: Jesse Jackson said, it's not trending. With the NAACP president said,
- 42:56Speaker 1: it's not trending. So why is it that que and
- 43:00Speaker 1: and fifty cent? Why were they able to make a
- 43:02Speaker 1: trend that says something about they get a reaction from
- 43:05Speaker 1: influence and so when you ignore that demographic, it's not
- 43:09Speaker 1: about Wayne and fifty cent. And I know people gonna say, oh,
- 43:11Speaker 1: Wayne just doing it for himself Okay, maybe, so put
- 43:14Speaker 1: your thinking cap on. This is outside of Wayne and
- 43:16Speaker 1: fifty cents. I'm talking about a certain sector of people
- 43:20Speaker 1: that have been looked down upon by operatives. And I
- 43:23Speaker 1: know this based on what I know, not what I heard.
- 43:25Speaker 1: And so now you have these guys coming out saying,
- 43:28Speaker 1: you know what, we do have influence, we do have
- 43:29Speaker 1: a voice, we do have something to say, even if
- 43:31Speaker 1: it's just trolling, because I believe fifty cent was just
- 43:33Speaker 1: straight up trolling, but it says a lot about you
- 43:36Speaker 1: have to bring these brothers under the foe. You can't
- 43:38Speaker 1: keep ignoring them over and over and just dismiss them as, oh, well,
- 43:42Speaker 1: they don't know what they're talking about any way, Nobody
- 43:43Speaker 1: listening to them, Wayne, abody to listening to your ass either,
- 43:46Speaker 1: because if that was the case, we wouldn't keep asking
- 43:47Speaker 1: people to vote year over year over year. Why is
- 43:50Speaker 1: it that we are still begging people to vote like
- 43:52Speaker 1: we have for the last sixty seventy plus years. At
- 43:55Speaker 1: some point, you're the common denominator man. At some point,
- 43:59Speaker 1: as you it can't keep being a voter. We got
- 44:01Speaker 1: to look at you. So I don't necessarily agree with
- 44:03Speaker 1: the timing, you know, of all the what they what
- 44:06Speaker 1: they did, But I think it was necessary for us
- 44:08Speaker 1: to have that conversation to talk about how do we
- 44:11Speaker 1: move forward? Because que Bob asily ain't sitting down, He's
- 44:13Speaker 1: not backing down for nobody. But what I will say
- 44:15Speaker 1: this in Q's defense, he'd been talking about a the
- 44:19Speaker 1: police and has been speaking for our community for thirty
- 44:22Speaker 1: plus years when those were standing back and standing by,
- 44:26Speaker 1: the least you could have did was allowed Q to
- 44:29Speaker 1: affirm his position and not just goal based on what
- 44:32Speaker 1: one tweet said and completely try to cancel that brother
- 44:35Speaker 1: as if he hasn't done anything for our community, as
- 44:38Speaker 1: if he hasn't spoke up for our community at all.
- 44:41Speaker 1: So for that alone, I believe Q should at least
- 44:43Speaker 1: have an opportunity's playing his position and if you don't
- 44:45Speaker 1: agree with his position, keep you don't keep it moving.
- 44:48Speaker 1: I'm also had to say this about a Little Wayne,
- 44:50Speaker 1: and I don't know if he'll say this. He already
- 44:53Speaker 1: said he didn't mind saying it publicly because the family,
- 44:56Speaker 1: you know, Jacob Blake's family talked about how Little Wayne
- 44:59Speaker 1: called Jacob Blake, talked about how they gifted how Little
- 45:01Speaker 1: Wayne gifted him. You know, with something that he really
- 45:04Speaker 1: really needed. This is the kind of stuff that goes
- 45:06Speaker 1: on behind the scenes that people are not aware about it.
- 45:09Speaker 1: And I will say this, a lot of these politicians
- 45:11Speaker 1: haven't done a damn thing for these victims. They quick
- 45:14Speaker 1: to put the pictures out there, they quick to say
- 45:15Speaker 1: what they gonna do, but when it comes down to
- 45:17Speaker 1: those receipts, you just can't ignore these brothers and what
- 45:20Speaker 1: they have tried to do. And again, this is not
- 45:22Speaker 1: an endorsement a little Wayne fifty cent or ice cube.
- 45:24Speaker 1: So keep y'all ass out the comments. I'm speaking on
- 45:28Speaker 1: the you know, the totality of it all and what
- 45:31Speaker 1: they represent. Do you think that sam hip hop artists
- 45:33Speaker 1: might have like that are supporting Biden and Kamala Harris.
- 45:37Speaker 1: Do you think that perhaps like they don't get as
- 45:39Speaker 1: much attention because the contraions probably do. Like the people
- 45:43Speaker 1: that are hip hop artists that are endorsing Trump, we
- 45:46Speaker 1: get outraged about that, but the people who are supporting
- 45:48Speaker 1: Biden Harris just we just felt like, Okay, that's what
- 45:51Speaker 1: it is. Because there aren't artists who are doing that
- 45:54Speaker 1: and are public about it, but we're not really acknowledging
- 45:56Speaker 1: that so much. Well, because it's the norm you know,
- 45:58Speaker 1: it's normally the Democrat. They always has the entertainment's line up.
- 46:01Speaker 1: What I say is this is when I hear people say, oh,
- 46:03Speaker 1: they're paying fifty sent, they're paying little Wayne, Well why
- 46:05Speaker 1: ain't nobody ever asks if they're paying those other artists?
- 46:08Speaker 1: They're not getting paid? And I say that, Angela, I
- 46:10Speaker 1: don't want to be clear. I'm not saying they get paid,
- 46:12Speaker 1: you know, I'm saying that when we have that conversation,
- 46:15Speaker 1: let's have it on both sides. When you have conversations
- 46:17Speaker 1: about somebody getting paid, that's broke it type, that's broke
- 46:20Speaker 1: the conversation. To me, I will tell you me, as
- 46:22Speaker 1: a single mom, have been offered opportunities and I don't
- 46:26Speaker 1: have Wayne's money and fifty cents money and none of
- 46:29Speaker 1: their influence, and I didn't take those opportunities. So, yes,
- 46:33Speaker 1: opportunities are presented to you. But believe it or not,
- 46:36Speaker 1: some people actually stand on their principles instead of posing
- 46:38Speaker 1: on a fifty cent got paid. Focus on some of
- 46:41Speaker 1: these donors who are donating to these campaigns because they're
- 46:44Speaker 1: the ones that are getting paid and actually owe somebody
- 46:47Speaker 1: for that money. So they don't get the attention I
- 46:49Speaker 1: guess because it's just the dorm. But a lot of
- 46:51Speaker 1: them do, and a lot of them get influence behind
- 46:54Speaker 1: the jay Z got plenty of attention when he supported
- 46:58Speaker 1: Hillary Clinton and Obama and all of that. He put
- 47:00Speaker 1: it in his rap songs. He was able to take
- 47:03Speaker 1: it to another level of influence from from a businessman standpoint.
- 47:06Speaker 1: But where is Jay Z right now? I mean, is
- 47:08Speaker 1: anybody asking that? Those are questions that you know, people
- 47:11Speaker 1: I would like to know why is he not out,
- 47:13Speaker 1: you know, supporting Joe Biden. But I think it really
- 47:16Speaker 1: comes down to it's not even about a hip hop
- 47:18Speaker 1: artist or even a commentator to things. They know every
- 47:20Speaker 1: damn thing. People have to make their own mind up.
- 47:23Speaker 1: That's why I keep saying it belongs to the streets.
- 47:24Speaker 1: Y'all gonna do what y'all want to do at this point,
- 47:26Speaker 1: you know, we just have to move forward on how
- 47:28Speaker 1: we're gonna you know, get this thing, tighten this up.
- 47:30Speaker 1: After the election. Yeah, I'm all for black people thinking
- 47:33Speaker 1: freely about their politics, even if I don't agree with
- 47:35Speaker 1: their politics, because I just feel like we've been we've
- 47:37Speaker 1: been too predictable for too long, So I like to
- 47:40Speaker 1: shake up, you know what I mean. I think that's
- 47:42Speaker 1: gonna benefit us in the long run. And you know,
- 47:44Speaker 1: to the whole cube thing, we never give black people
- 47:47Speaker 1: the same grace we give white folks. They'll cancel Light's
- 47:49Speaker 1: cube in two seconds. But tell you, how dare you
- 47:52Speaker 1: speak on Joe Biden's record? Why why do you think
- 47:55Speaker 1: people think you can't critique Joe Biden and still support
- 47:59Speaker 1: that that ticket. I think we have just got to
- 48:02Speaker 1: a point where logic has went out the window. It
- 48:05Speaker 1: is all about tribalism. You know. I talk a lot
- 48:08Speaker 1: about bloods and cribs, and I know a lot of
- 48:10Speaker 1: people are in different regions don't understand that. And it
- 48:13Speaker 1: really reminds me of that tribal you know. I feel
- 48:17Speaker 1: like on Instagram people are coming up to me saying,
- 48:19Speaker 1: break yourself. We'll set you claim. You know. It's it's
- 48:22Speaker 1: like there's a mindset that nothing can be questioned. You know,
- 48:27Speaker 1: if both things can be true, I can still support
- 48:30Speaker 1: Joe Biden and Kamala Harris and still critique the crime bill.
- 48:34Speaker 1: We are just in a place where all thought is
- 48:38Speaker 1: out the window, all logic is out the window. But
- 48:41Speaker 1: We've just gotten to a place of just ridiculousness. Just
- 48:45Speaker 1: to be quite honest with you, that's why I'm so
- 48:46Speaker 1: ready to get that over with so we can really have,
- 48:48Speaker 1: you know, full conversations. And it's it's it's a mental thing,
- 48:52Speaker 1: Charlotte Mane. For real, a lot of people just really
- 48:54Speaker 1: want to put their head in the sand and get
- 48:55Speaker 1: this over with because they don't want to have to
- 48:58Speaker 1: deal with the real problem, the real route. We can
- 49:02Speaker 1: still be unified and have our own armies that are
- 49:05Speaker 1: pushing different agendas, and whoever pushes the agenda first and
- 49:09Speaker 1: gets their first is the winner. As long as it
- 49:12Speaker 1: is collectively for black people. I don't care what side
- 49:14Speaker 1: that you're wrong. As long as it's about collectively pushing
- 49:17Speaker 1: the line for black people, we all win. Let's stop
- 49:20Speaker 1: arguing about we all need to be on the same page.
- 49:22Speaker 1: I think that's just a waste of time that we'll
- 49:24Speaker 1: keeping lock. We got more with Teslain Figaro when we
- 49:27Speaker 1: come back. It's the Breakfast Club. Good morning, good morning.
- 49:29Speaker 1: Everybody is DJ Envy Angela Yee. Charlomagne the guy we
- 49:33Speaker 1: are the Breakfast Club was still kicking it with Teslain
- 49:35Speaker 1: Figuro yee. One thing we see with Donald Trump right
- 49:38Speaker 1: now though, and I will say this, what makes him
- 49:40Speaker 1: even more dangerous though, is that he can't accept any
- 49:43Speaker 1: criticism or anybody telling him, hey, you know that's wrong.
- 49:47Speaker 1: You shouldn't have done that like that. And even what
- 49:48Speaker 1: we just saw recently with the Trump trains and how
- 49:51Speaker 1: they surrounded the campaign bus for Biden and Harris and
- 49:54Speaker 1: tried to run them off the road, and he encourages
- 49:57Speaker 1: that type of behavior. So what do you think it's
- 50:00Speaker 1: gonna happen? Because people are looking at this like after
- 50:02Speaker 1: election date, there's gonna be all kinds of riots and violence.
- 50:06Speaker 1: Do you think that is potentially a strong possibility that
- 50:11Speaker 1: that will happen? Sure, I mean anything is a possibility.
- 50:14Speaker 1: I don't think that, to be honest with you. We
- 50:16Speaker 1: had a show on my show talking about that. I
- 50:19Speaker 1: don't think if it's riots, I think it will be
- 50:20Speaker 1: coming from the right. To be honest with you, I
- 50:22Speaker 1: think it will be something to make it appear as
- 50:25Speaker 1: if the left is doing it. Because I'm gonna be
- 50:26Speaker 1: honest with you, most people ain't just about their life.
- 50:28Speaker 1: I mean they're just not you know. They talk that
- 50:31Speaker 1: on Instagram and Twitter, and you know they say, oh,
- 50:34Speaker 1: I'm gonna be riddy, I'm gonna eat this isn't that.
- 50:36Speaker 1: But these are the same people that won't even stand
- 50:38Speaker 1: up to the HR supervisor, you know, in demand along
- 50:40Speaker 1: the break, let's just keep you one hundred. It's a
- 50:42Speaker 1: lot to say behind the scenes, but when it really
- 50:45Speaker 1: come down to it, people ain't about that life. If
- 50:48Speaker 1: Trump supporters want to follow somebody, go follow them in
- 50:50Speaker 1: the hood. Like that other video we saw when they
- 50:52Speaker 1: went to the hood and for word and try it,
- 50:54Speaker 1: they got ran out the hood. I think people know
- 50:56Speaker 1: who they can attimidate and who they cannot. And I
- 50:59Speaker 1: think that's always been in the mindset of any any warrior.
- 51:03Speaker 1: Any warrior knows who they can play with and who
- 51:05Speaker 1: they can't. So sure, you know, there might be unrests
- 51:08Speaker 1: just to play into the narrative. I don't think that
- 51:11Speaker 1: it would be the leftist stars that. I really don't
- 51:13Speaker 1: And I think for the most part this idea that
- 51:15Speaker 1: oh everybody in the country just about to go crazy
- 51:18Speaker 1: and it's about to be some civil war. I see
- 51:22Speaker 1: that shirt a lot that says I'm not my ancestors,
- 51:24Speaker 1: and I take offensive that a lot too, because I
- 51:27Speaker 1: know the idea of saying, you know, I'm not gonna
- 51:29Speaker 1: play that, I'm this and that, But what the ancestors
- 51:32Speaker 1: went through, we ain't built like that. We're not built
- 51:34Speaker 1: to you know what I'm saying, Like, let's just keep
- 51:36Speaker 1: it real. You're not built to jump off no ship.
- 51:39Speaker 1: You're not built there were there were enslave folks that
- 51:41Speaker 1: fought and had rebellion. You're not built like that. Most
- 51:45Speaker 1: of y'all gonna take y'all ants to work at eight
- 51:47Speaker 1: o'clock and be typing on your on your phone on Instagram.
- 51:52Speaker 1: When we tell people to walk off their job, but
- 51:54Speaker 1: just one day, they don't do it. We can't even
- 51:56Speaker 1: get folks to boycott for longer than twenty four hours.
- 51:58Speaker 1: So the deal that it's going to be this major,
- 52:01Speaker 1: you know, across the country, civil war type thing, I
- 52:04Speaker 1: just don't think we're built like that. Will there be
- 52:06Speaker 1: could there be violence, absolutely, But most folks gonna be
- 52:09Speaker 1: on their job, Angela. I mean, let's just keep it real.
- 52:11Speaker 1: They're gonna be on their job because they gotta pay
- 52:12Speaker 1: their bills. On fifteen. Yeah, you know, applies Applies said
- 52:16Speaker 1: something interesting. He said that, and I'm paraphrasing Head that
- 52:20Speaker 1: they will not start taking black people serious until we
- 52:23Speaker 1: go out there and start exercising our vote the right way.
- 52:26Speaker 1: You know, I don't know how I feel about that,
- 52:28Speaker 1: only because black people have been blindly supporting THEMS forever.
- 52:31Speaker 1: So so what do you think it will take for
- 52:33Speaker 1: them to really start taking us serious when it comes
- 52:35Speaker 1: to being a voting voting block. You know, this is
- 52:39Speaker 1: a question that I've really been struggling with. You know.
- 52:42Speaker 1: The thing that happened with Trump is them really having
- 52:45Speaker 1: to pay attention like right now. You know, we've been
- 52:47Speaker 1: telling them about black men and the importance of black men,
- 52:50Speaker 1: black men, black men, black men, and now at the
- 52:52Speaker 1: eleventh down, oh hey what about black men? You know,
- 52:54Speaker 1: but I was talking about that way before this selection.
- 52:59Speaker 1: And I think each and every time, well I know,
- 53:01Speaker 1: each and every time we get close to moving forward,
- 53:05Speaker 1: and let's say Biden wins, there is a certain people
- 53:08Speaker 1: don't have to like this and that this is again
- 53:09Speaker 1: not an endorsement of Trump, these are just facts when
- 53:13Speaker 1: Biden wins. If he wins, there's a certain sector in
- 53:16Speaker 1: the operative section of politics that feels, okay, no matter what,
- 53:22Speaker 1: we'll always still win. They don't do the smart thing
- 53:25Speaker 1: and say, hey, we came close and I can't afford
- 53:29Speaker 1: to get this close again. Going back to the relationship analogy,
- 53:33Speaker 1: if I take you back, it doesn't mean that you
- 53:35Speaker 1: get comfortable. It means you really supposed to be on
- 53:37Speaker 1: top of your game. So I feel until there's a
- 53:41Speaker 1: big loss, loss enough for people to really hurt, for
- 53:45Speaker 1: the middle class to really hurt, like the lower and
- 53:49Speaker 1: lower class and the poor, I don't know if we'll
- 53:52Speaker 1: ever you know, get to that place until that happens.
- 53:55Speaker 1: America and humans are very self involved, their self center,
- 54:00Speaker 1: just like they say, oh Wayne is doing it because
- 54:02Speaker 1: he's self center, where you're self center to most people,
- 54:05Speaker 1: what do we say, self preservation is first. So until
- 54:09Speaker 1: we get out of that space and start thinking about
- 54:12Speaker 1: others and what others may possibly be going through and
- 54:15Speaker 1: not even just thinking about empathies, not enough. You have
- 54:17Speaker 1: to hurt sometimes, like something has to hurt you enough
- 54:20Speaker 1: to make you say I'll stand for the crime bill
- 54:22Speaker 1: because of people that I know that did time, not
- 54:25Speaker 1: because I watched when they see us great movie. But
- 54:29Speaker 1: until you writing somebody in solitary confinement, till you putting
- 54:32Speaker 1: money on somebody's book till you see how it mentally
- 54:34Speaker 1: damages them after doing that time in prison. And I'm
- 54:37Speaker 1: talking about first time non violent offenders. I'm not talking
- 54:39Speaker 1: about everything with the crime bill. I'm not talk about violence.
- 54:42Speaker 1: I'm not talking about those Ada drugs. I'm specifically talking
- 54:44Speaker 1: about first time non violent offenders. Until it hurts you,
- 54:47Speaker 1: until you own the phone in tears. Like I was
- 54:50Speaker 1: last night with the same person, you see things differently.
- 54:54Speaker 1: I got one more question for you. You know, we
- 54:56Speaker 1: had Jim clyburn on and he said, in the first
- 54:58Speaker 1: hundred hours Biden being in office, first hundred hours, he
- 55:02Speaker 1: wants them to form a committee to see the impact
- 55:04Speaker 1: of the eighty six mandatory minimum sending thing as well
- 55:07Speaker 1: as the ninety four crime Bill, and once we know
- 55:09Speaker 1: what the damage is, then Biden can atone for it.
- 55:11Speaker 1: What would you like to see this administration do if
- 55:14Speaker 1: they get in Biden, Harris, what would you like to
- 55:16Speaker 1: see them doing the first hundred days? I would absolutely
- 55:19Speaker 1: like to see that. I wish Jim Claiborne would have
- 55:21Speaker 1: said that when he was endorsing him instead of just
- 55:23Speaker 1: we know Joe and Joe know us. See, that's the
- 55:25Speaker 1: kind of thing that in politics that really gets that
- 55:28Speaker 1: bothers me, Charlotta Magne's because they hold these nuggets that
- 55:31Speaker 1: I feel would be so critical, that would have made
- 55:33Speaker 1: a difference so that we wouldn't have had to argue
- 55:35Speaker 1: this last year about Joe Biden had that been said
- 55:38Speaker 1: in the beginning. But we play these for this is
- 55:40Speaker 1: no shade on him. I'm just giving you how I
- 55:42Speaker 1: feel we play these political games and say, well, let's
- 55:44Speaker 1: not say that right now, let's just get him in
- 55:46Speaker 1: and then let's say it later. But see what happens
- 55:48Speaker 1: is you've had us arguing like hell over the crime
- 55:51Speaker 1: bill when that should have been said out the gate
- 55:54Speaker 1: so that it wouldn't be so hard. Now that's right,
- 55:57Speaker 1: So of course I want to see that. Of course
- 55:59Speaker 1: I want to see immediate accountability, not this game of
- 56:03Speaker 1: whatever it is. I want to see economics. I want
- 56:05Speaker 1: to see a lot of Mike Bloomberg's policies that he pushed.
- 56:07Speaker 1: What I was about adopting some of his policies. He
- 56:09Speaker 1: talked about black businesses. They never talk about black business
- 56:12Speaker 1: at all, Like it's almost like they just we don't
- 56:15Speaker 1: even exist, you know. I who want to see that happen.
- 56:18Speaker 1: I want to see healthcare reform. I also want to
- 56:21Speaker 1: see more opportunities on the state and local level. There's
- 56:25Speaker 1: a lot of I really want to see their message
- 56:28Speaker 1: in just change. When you talk about and I'll say
- 56:30Speaker 1: this and shut up, but when you talk about state level,
- 56:34Speaker 1: county medicare basically like a Medicare for all, Harris County
- 56:40Speaker 1: has a county medical plan. I broke my ankle last year,
- 56:45Speaker 1: this time one day in the hospital without even getting
- 56:48Speaker 1: my ankle fixed. I had a twenty seven thousand dollar bill,
- 56:51Speaker 1: damn for one day and I got the receipt to
- 56:54Speaker 1: prove and that wasn't even fixing the ankle. Like, that's
- 56:56Speaker 1: really like going on in people's life. Why don't they
- 56:58Speaker 1: talk about that. Why don't you talk about how those
- 57:01Speaker 1: types of policies. That's actually when you talk about medicare
- 57:05Speaker 1: for all. When when we start talking about that, then
- 57:08Speaker 1: it makes sense to people. That's what this Democrat Party
- 57:10Speaker 1: needs to do. From from Jim cleinber on our dad.
- 57:12Speaker 1: And it's not even about Biden. It's about these leaders
- 57:14Speaker 1: who have been in office thirty forty fifty years. They
- 57:17Speaker 1: know the right thing to do. They just need to
- 57:18Speaker 1: start doing it word. Her name is Teslin. She's the
- 57:22Speaker 1: host of this Grace Shot No Chase of podcasts on
- 57:24Speaker 1: Black Effect. I always a pleasant task. I hope, I
- 57:31Speaker 1: hope ya reckoning and celebrating in the next week. Yes man,
- 57:35Speaker 1: we'll have some of that tequilo on your back. I
- 57:37Speaker 1: got drinks over so they tell them where to find
- 57:42Speaker 1: you so that they can argue with you if they
- 57:43Speaker 1: want to. Yes, please, Teslin Figuo on all Things t
- 57:47Speaker 1: e Z L y n F I G A R
- 57:49Speaker 1: O Instagram, Twitter, and get on Twitter, y'all. We gotta
- 57:53Speaker 1: start pushing people to Twitter because that's where information is.
- 57:56Speaker 1: That's what politicians pay to pay attention to. They don't
- 57:59Speaker 1: pay attention to Instagram. Was funny because when Wayne put
- 58:02Speaker 1: out the tweet saying he supported Trump, some out on
- 58:04Speaker 1: my Instagram said, oh, he didn't say it on Instagram.
- 58:06Speaker 1: He said it on Twitter. Because Twitter is where it matters.
- 58:08Speaker 1: I g is anti information. It doesn't allow you to
- 58:11Speaker 1: share links, only videos and pictures. It's a reason for that.
- 58:14Speaker 1: Get on Twitter, get involved in Twitter, and let's start
- 58:17Speaker 1: having this conversation. Thank you so much. Listen up. Well.
- 58:32Speaker 1: Yesterday on the Talk Eve made an announcement and said
- 58:36Speaker 1: that she is leaving. It's been a crazy year, obviously
- 58:39Speaker 1: for all of us, and I've been so grateful that
- 58:42Speaker 1: I'm able to stay here in London and do the show.
- 58:45Speaker 1: But I can't see for me the foreseeable future of
- 58:49Speaker 1: traveling back at the moment, and have decided that at
- 58:54Speaker 1: the end of December, this will probably be my last
- 58:57Speaker 1: time on the show in this capacity as a host.
- 59:02Speaker 1: They're gonna miss her. I get it, though, she you
- 59:05Speaker 1: know she she got it. She set herself up, but
- 59:07Speaker 1: she ain't got to worry about it and she don't
- 59:08Speaker 1: want to She don't want to do She's like nine,
- 59:13Speaker 1: but no, she's in London. She could do to zoom.
- 59:15Speaker 1: She doesn't want to move back after December. So here's
- 59:17Speaker 1: what else she had to say on another lockdown from Thursday.
- 59:21Speaker 1: And that's another reason why, Like obviously, staying home has
- 59:24Speaker 1: been such a blessing, because my husband and I got
- 59:27Speaker 1: to know each other in another in a different way,
- 59:29Speaker 1: a beautiful way. So I want to be closer to him.
- 59:31Speaker 1: I want to concentrate on expanding our family, being with
- 59:34Speaker 1: my family, and oh I want to hug you, luth
- 59:39Speaker 1: Eve Man. I respect it. You have to know in
- 59:41Speaker 1: this time for you to walk away from situations. Plus
- 59:44Speaker 1: it's got to be difficult living in London but still
- 59:46Speaker 1: keeping your finger on the post of things that are
- 59:48Speaker 1: going on in America, especially right now. Right So yeah,
- 59:54Speaker 1: and it probably was easier for her doing it virtually,
- 59:56Speaker 1: but then you know, when it's time for her to
- 59:59Speaker 1: have to get back in the studio, she's like, not
- 1:00:02Speaker 1: leaving here and being with my family all right. Kurtie
- 1:00:05Speaker 1: b has legally dropped her divorce proceedings against Offsets, so
- 1:00:09Speaker 1: it looks like they are really trying to work things out. Yeah,
- 1:00:14Speaker 1: I mean, that's that's the That's the horrible thing about
- 1:00:17Speaker 1: you know, being a relationship in the public like that
- 1:00:19Speaker 1: is everything that you do is it goes out to
- 1:00:22Speaker 1: the world, you know. I mean, this is something that's
- 1:00:23Speaker 1: going on between them. You know, it could have been
- 1:00:25Speaker 1: an argument, it could have been anything. But the first
- 1:00:26Speaker 1: thing people say is he cheated, he did this, And
- 1:00:28Speaker 1: she was like, no, we just had a bad argument.
- 1:00:30Speaker 1: But I'm just glad they're working it out. Man. You
- 1:00:33Speaker 1: gotta put the fear of God in your man sometime,
- 1:00:37Speaker 1: whether you're filing for the voice supporting pistol on him. Okay, yes, girl,
- 1:00:42Speaker 1: you gotta put the fear of God in your man sometimes. Well,
- 1:00:44Speaker 1: I'm speaking from a man's perspective. Men, and it works
- 1:00:47Speaker 1: for us, you know what I mean when a woman
- 1:00:49Speaker 1: puts the fear of God and us in that way,
- 1:00:51Speaker 1: But not theist. We're not just putting the fear of God.
- 1:00:54Speaker 1: We mean it. And it ain't like I'm just gonna
- 1:00:56Speaker 1: scare him at the time, mint it. I'm talking about
- 1:01:00Speaker 1: of us for those who are just trying to scare us. Okay.
- 1:01:03Speaker 1: And by the way, and you'd much rather have a
- 1:01:05Speaker 1: pistol in your face as opposed to them divorce papers
- 1:01:09Speaker 1: getting fired. Okay, preach amen, right right, amen? Preach as
- 1:01:17Speaker 1: a woman, though I must. I've never heard I've never
- 1:01:20Speaker 1: felt like and I've never heard none of my home
- 1:01:22Speaker 1: girls say I'm just going threatened to leave him. I'm not, really,
- 1:01:25Speaker 1: I just want to scare him. You surely mean it.
- 1:01:28Speaker 1: It ain't like you just doing it to scare him.
- 1:01:30Speaker 1: You mean, if you want to trying to scare somebody,
- 1:01:33Speaker 1: you really thinking this is what I'm gonna do. I've
- 1:01:35Speaker 1: got all right now. I love, I'm not even a woman,
- 1:01:39Speaker 1: but I got home girls, and I've heard I heard
- 1:01:41Speaker 1: that before. I'm just bugging you know what. I'm scared
- 1:01:43Speaker 1: of the divorce papers bore and I'm scared of a pistol.
- 1:01:45Speaker 1: I know that. Why would you let me speak for you?
- 1:01:48Speaker 1: I got this all right, I'm Angela yee And that's
- 1:01:50Speaker 1: your room report, all right, thank you, miss Ye. Now

- 1:02:18Speaker 1: the guy we all the Breakfast Club. On election day,
- 1:02:21Speaker 1: we have a special guest on the line, Stacey Abrahams.
- 1:02:25Speaker 1: Good morning State, Say good morning. Thank you guys for
- 1:02:28Speaker 1: having me. Man. I got so many questions for you
- 1:02:30Speaker 1: this morning. Number one, when did Georgia become a battleground?
- 1:02:33Speaker 1: State one of the US done. We were we were
- 1:02:37Speaker 1: possibly a battleground state in twenty sixteen, but we know
- 1:02:40Speaker 1: in twenty eighteen, when we were able to finally invest
- 1:02:43Speaker 1: in black and brown voters and discouraged voters and Luke
- 1:02:47Speaker 1: propensity voters, we became a battleground state. Was a one
- 1:02:50Speaker 1: point four percent race. And so this year was the
- 1:02:52Speaker 1: first year we had a presidential nominee who was willing
- 1:02:55Speaker 1: to put the money in. It didn't hurt that we
- 1:02:57Speaker 1: have two US Senate races, John ass Off and raw
- 1:03:00Speaker 1: Fil Warnock, who've spent a lot of money to make
- 1:03:02Speaker 1: sure that voters understand what's at staken, that their voice matters.
- 1:03:06Speaker 1: We have you to think for George to becoming a
- 1:03:07Speaker 1: batter ground state, then I've been doing a lot of work,
- 1:03:10Speaker 1: but I can't take all the credit. We've had a
- 1:03:11Speaker 1: lot of folks who have been trying to make this
- 1:03:13Speaker 1: happen that Stacey asked the expert, I got some questions
- 1:03:17Speaker 1: for you of what's happening today. So let's just say
- 1:03:19Speaker 1: you're not registered to vote, and so you think that
- 1:03:22Speaker 1: you can't vote. Is there a way that you can
- 1:03:25Speaker 1: registers to vote today? So depends on the state you
- 1:03:28Speaker 1: live in. If you go to I will vote dot com,
- 1:03:30Speaker 1: it will give you information about whether you're in a
- 1:03:32Speaker 1: state where they will allow same day registration. We know,
- 1:03:35Speaker 1: for example, in North Carolina you can register the same day.
- 1:03:38Speaker 1: I think the same thing is true in Michigan. So
- 1:03:41Speaker 1: go to I will vote dot com, put in your code,
- 1:03:43Speaker 1: put in your information, and it will tell you how
- 1:03:45Speaker 1: you can register to vote if you can. Georgia unfortunately
- 1:03:49Speaker 1: does not allow same day registration, but there are a
- 1:03:51Speaker 1: lot of states that are moving in that direction, so
- 1:03:53Speaker 1: make sure you take advantage of it. Now, today is
- 1:03:55Speaker 1: the last day. Now, how important is voting for black
- 1:03:58Speaker 1: and brown voters. There's a lot of people out there.
- 1:03:59Speaker 1: Saw my vote doesn't matter, it's just one vote. Or
- 1:04:02Speaker 1: I'm in a state that always goals democratic. I'm in
- 1:04:04Speaker 1: a state that always goals Republicans. So what do you
- 1:04:06Speaker 1: say to old people out there? Oh, even Georgia, you
- 1:04:09Speaker 1: can't count anybody out. So here are three things to know.
- 1:04:12Speaker 1: Number One, voting isn't magic, it's medicine. And so if
- 1:04:16Speaker 1: we want to cure the ills, if we want to
- 1:04:18Speaker 1: cure the diseases that we see in our country, racism
- 1:04:20Speaker 1: systemic inequality, police brutality, income, inequality, healthcare. All of those
- 1:04:26Speaker 1: things get changed by voting. In Georgia, in twenty eighteen,
- 1:04:29Speaker 1: we had a congressional person, a congressional candidate who lost
- 1:04:32Speaker 1: by four hundred and thirty three votes. So close races
- 1:04:37Speaker 1: change the future, and we know if we can take
- 1:04:39Speaker 1: the Senate and hold the House and win the presidency,
- 1:04:43Speaker 1: that's the game changer. That is something we haven't seen
- 1:04:45Speaker 1: since two thousand and eight. So Number One, think about
- 1:04:49Speaker 1: voting not as magic. You're not gonna get everything you
- 1:04:51Speaker 1: want by voting, but you get more of what you need,
- 1:04:53Speaker 1: and the more we do it, the healthier we get.
- 1:04:55Speaker 1: Number Two, your vote counts because if it didn't matter
- 1:04:59Speaker 1: so much, they would not be spending millions of dollars
- 1:05:03Speaker 1: to stop you. And they know they can count just
- 1:05:05Speaker 1: like we can. And for the first time in American history,
- 1:05:08Speaker 1: reef reached an inflection point where there are more of
- 1:05:11Speaker 1: us than there are of them. When I say more
- 1:05:13Speaker 1: of us, I mean more black and brown folks who
- 1:05:15Speaker 1: can actually change the outcome of elections. That hasn't always
- 1:05:18Speaker 1: been true. For most of my life, we have been
- 1:05:20Speaker 1: nice to have, but not necessary to have now we're necessary,
- 1:05:24Speaker 1: and if we show up and use our power, we
- 1:05:26Speaker 1: win number three. If this is a close race, which
- 1:05:29Speaker 1: we expect, it's going to be those marginal votes that
- 1:05:32Speaker 1: nobody expected that actually change the world. So your vote
- 1:05:35Speaker 1: could be the one that tips the difference one way
- 1:05:38Speaker 1: or the other. And whether you vote or not, you're
- 1:05:41Speaker 1: making a choice. If you don't show up, they're going
- 1:05:43Speaker 1: to decide. They're going to assume that you chose what
- 1:05:45Speaker 1: we've got. And if you're good with that, okay. But
- 1:05:48Speaker 1: if you want something different, if you want something better,
- 1:05:51Speaker 1: if you want a president who actually thinks that we
- 1:05:53Speaker 1: shouldn't die from COVID nineteen so that he can pretend,
- 1:05:57Speaker 1: if you want to make certain that we have a
- 1:06:00Speaker 1: plan to stop chokeholds from killing black folks and brown folks.
- 1:06:03Speaker 1: If you want there to be a difference, you not
- 1:06:05Speaker 1: only need to vote for the president, but you need
- 1:06:07Speaker 1: to vote all the way down the ballot. I heard
- 1:06:10Speaker 1: the Earth Gang. I was on an IG Live and
- 1:06:11Speaker 1: the Earth Gang set. The closer you get to the
- 1:06:13Speaker 1: bottom of the ballot, the closer you get to home.
- 1:06:15Speaker 1: So don't just think that the world is solved with
- 1:06:18Speaker 1: the presidency. If you got to vote for DA's judges, mayors,
- 1:06:22Speaker 1: state legislators. So make sure you vote the entire ballot.
- 1:06:26Speaker 1: That's like doing a scratch off ticket and only scratching
- 1:06:28Speaker 1: off a couple and number. Scratch off the whole thing,
- 1:06:30Speaker 1: so you can make sure you can win the political lottery. Now, Stacy,
- 1:06:34Speaker 1: what if you show up and they say you're not registered?
- 1:06:36Speaker 1: So again, go to I will vote dot com to
- 1:06:39Speaker 1: make sure that you're in a state where you can
- 1:06:41Speaker 1: do same day registration. But if you think you're registered,
- 1:06:44Speaker 1: go anyway. And what can happen is if you have
- 1:06:46Speaker 1: any problems, called eight to six six hour vote. Eight
- 1:06:50Speaker 1: six six hour vote. The only two things you need
- 1:06:52Speaker 1: to remember today besides going to vote I will vote
- 1:06:55Speaker 1: dot com at eight sixty six hour vote. Our vote
- 1:06:59Speaker 1: is populated by civil rights attorneys whose only job today
- 1:07:02Speaker 1: is to help you vote. So they can help you
- 1:07:04Speaker 1: understand if it's your issue or if it's their issue.
- 1:07:08Speaker 1: And one of the ways voter suppression works, it's by
- 1:07:10Speaker 1: taking people off the roles who should not have been removed.
- 1:07:13Speaker 1: If you call eight six six hour vote, they can
- 1:07:15Speaker 1: help you get your registration issues resolved if possible, and
- 1:07:19Speaker 1: they can tell you what you need to do, but
- 1:07:20Speaker 1: no matter what happens, do not get out of line.
- 1:07:24Speaker 1: Do you think fair Fight has done his job? You
- 1:07:27Speaker 1: know what role do you think fair Fight played in
- 1:07:29Speaker 1: ensuring at the voting process is fair all across the
- 1:07:31Speaker 1: country today? But stay well answer that when we come back.
- 1:07:34Speaker 1: All right, Stacy Abrams is here. Today's election day, so
- 1:07:37Speaker 1: don't move. We got more with Stacy Abrams when we
- 1:07:40Speaker 1: come back. It's the Breakfast Club. Good morning morning. Everybody
- 1:07:43Speaker 1: is DJ Envy Angela Ye, Charlomagne the guy. We are
- 1:07:46Speaker 1: the Breakfast Club. On election Day. We have a special
- 1:07:49Speaker 1: guest on the line, Stacy Abrams. Good morning, stay say morning,
- 1:07:55Speaker 1: thank you guys for having me man. I got so
- 1:07:56Speaker 1: many questions for you this morning. Number one, when day
- 1:08:00Speaker 1: George would become a battleground dates day. We were possibly
- 1:08:05Speaker 1: a battleground state in twenty sixteen, but we know in
- 1:08:08Speaker 1: twenty eighteen, when we were able to finally invest in
- 1:08:11Speaker 1: black and brown voters, in discouraged voters and low propensity voters,
- 1:08:15Speaker 1: we became a battleground state. It was a one point
- 1:08:17Speaker 1: four percent race. And so this year was the first
- 1:08:20Speaker 1: year we had a presidential nominee who was willing to
- 1:08:22Speaker 1: put the money in. It didn't hurt that we have
- 1:08:24Speaker 1: two US Senate races, John Ossoff and Raphael Warnock, who
- 1:08:28Speaker 1: spent a lot of money to make sure that voters
- 1:08:30Speaker 1: understand what's at staken, that their voice matters. We have
- 1:08:33Speaker 1: you to think George becoming a battleground state. Then I've
- 1:08:36Speaker 1: been doing a lot of work, but I can't take
- 1:08:38Speaker 1: all the credit. We've had a lot of folks who've
- 1:08:39Speaker 1: been trying to make this happen. Now, Stacy as the expert,
- 1:08:43Speaker 1: I got some questions for you of what's happening today.
- 1:08:46Speaker 1: So let's just say you're not registered to vote, and
- 1:08:48Speaker 1: so you think that you can't vote. Is there a
- 1:08:51Speaker 1: way that you can register to vote today? So depends
- 1:08:54Speaker 1: on the state you live in. If you go to
- 1:08:56Speaker 1: I will vote dot com, it will give you information
- 1:08:58Speaker 1: about whether you're in a state where they will allow
- 1:09:01Speaker 1: same day registration. We know, for example, in North Carolina
- 1:09:04Speaker 1: you can register the same day. I think the same
- 1:09:06Speaker 1: thing is true in Michigan. So go to iwill vote
- 1:09:09Speaker 1: dot com, put in your zip code, put in your information,
- 1:09:12Speaker 1: and it will tell you how you can register to vote.
- 1:09:14Speaker 1: If you can. Georgia unfortunately does not allow same day registration,
- 1:09:18Speaker 1: but there are a lot of states that are moving
- 1:09:19Speaker 1: in that direction, so make sure you take advantage of it. Now.
- 1:09:22Speaker 1: Today is the last day. Now, how important is voting
- 1:09:25Speaker 1: for black and brown voters because a lot of people
- 1:09:26Speaker 1: out there and say, oh, my vote doesn't matter, it's
- 1:09:28Speaker 1: just one vote. Or I'm in a state that always
- 1:09:30Speaker 1: goals democratic. I'm in a state that always goals Republicans.
- 1:09:33Speaker 1: So what do you say to old people out there?
- 1:09:35Speaker 1: Oheve in Georgia, you can't count anybody out. So here
- 1:09:38Speaker 1: are three things to know. Number one, voting isn't magic,
- 1:09:41Speaker 1: it's medicine. And so if we want to cure the ills,
- 1:09:45Speaker 1: if we want to cure the diseases that we see
- 1:09:46Speaker 1: in our country, racism, systemic inequality, police brutality, income, inequality, healthcare,
- 1:09:53Speaker 1: all of those things get changed by voting. In Georgia,
- 1:09:56Speaker 1: in twenty eighteen, we had a congressional person, a congressional
- 1:09:59Speaker 1: candidate who lost by four hundred and thirty three votes.
- 1:10:02Speaker 1: So close races change the future. And we know if
- 1:10:06Speaker 1: we can take the Senate and hold the House and
- 1:10:09Speaker 1: when the presidency, that's the game changer. That is something
- 1:10:12Speaker 1: we haven't seen since two thousand and eight. So Number one,
- 1:10:16Speaker 1: think about voting not as a magic You're not gonna
- 1:10:18Speaker 1: get everything you want by voting, but you get more
- 1:10:20Speaker 1: of what you need, and the more we do it,
- 1:10:21Speaker 1: the healthier we get. Number two, your vote counts because
- 1:10:26Speaker 1: if it didn't matter so much, they would not be
- 1:10:28Speaker 1: spending millions of dollars to stop you. And they know
- 1:10:32Speaker 1: they can count just like we can. And for the
- 1:10:34Speaker 1: first time in American history, reef reached an inflection point
- 1:10:37Speaker 1: where there are more of us than there are of them.
- 1:10:39Speaker 1: When I say more of us, I mean more black
- 1:10:41Speaker 1: and brown folks who can actually change the outcome of elections.
- 1:10:44Speaker 1: That hasn't always been true. For most of my life.
- 1:10:47Speaker 1: We have been nice to have, but not necessary to have.
- 1:10:50Speaker 1: Now we're necessary, and if we show up and use
- 1:10:52Speaker 1: our power, we win. Number Three. If this is a
- 1:10:56Speaker 1: close race, which we expect, it's going to be those
- 1:10:58Speaker 1: marginal votes that nobody expected that actually changed the world.
- 1:11:02Speaker 1: So your vote could be the one that tips the
- 1:11:04Speaker 1: difference one way or the other. And whether you vote
- 1:11:07Speaker 1: or not, you're making a choice. If you don't show up,
- 1:11:10Speaker 1: they're going to decide. They're going to assume that you
- 1:11:12Speaker 1: chose what we've got. And if you're good with that, okay,
- 1:11:16Speaker 1: But if you want something different, if you want something better,
- 1:11:19Speaker 1: if you want a president who actually thinks that we
- 1:11:21Speaker 1: shouldn't die from COVID nineteen so that he can pretend,
- 1:11:25Speaker 1: if you want to make certain that we have a
- 1:11:27Speaker 1: plan to stop chokeholds from killing black folks and brown folks.
- 1:11:30Speaker 1: If you want there to be a difference, you not
- 1:11:33Speaker 1: only need to vote for the president, but you need
- 1:11:35Speaker 1: to vote all the way down the ballot. I heard
- 1:11:37Speaker 1: the Earth Gang. I was on an IG Live and
- 1:11:39Speaker 1: the Earth Gang set. The closer you get to the
- 1:11:40Speaker 1: bottom of the ballot, the closer you get to home.
- 1:11:43Speaker 1: So don't just think that the world is solved with
- 1:11:45Speaker 1: the presidency. If you got to vote for DA's judges, mayors,
- 1:11:49Speaker 1: state legislators. So make sure you vote the entire ballot.
- 1:11:53Speaker 1: That's like doing a scratch off ticket and only scratching
- 1:11:55Speaker 1: off a couple and number. Scratch off the whole thing,
- 1:11:57Speaker 1: so you can make sure you win the political lottery. Now,
- 1:12:01Speaker 1: stay see what if you show up and they say
- 1:12:02Speaker 1: you're not registered? So again, go to I will vote
- 1:12:05Speaker 1: dot com to make sure that you're in a state
- 1:12:07Speaker 1: where you can do same day registration. But if you
- 1:12:10Speaker 1: think you're registered, go anyway. And what can happen is
- 1:12:13Speaker 1: if you have any problems, called eight to six six
- 1:12:16Speaker 1: hour vote eight six six hour vote. Only two things
- 1:12:20Speaker 1: you need to remember today besides going to vote, I
- 1:12:22Speaker 1: will vote dot com at eight six six hour vote.
- 1:12:25Speaker 1: Our vote is populated by civil rights attorneys whose only
- 1:12:29Speaker 1: job today is to help you vote. So they can
- 1:12:31Speaker 1: help you understand if it's your issue or if it's
- 1:12:34Speaker 1: their issue. And one of the ways voter suppression works,
- 1:12:37Speaker 1: it's by taking people off the rolls who should not
- 1:12:39Speaker 1: have been removed. If you call eight six six hour vote,
- 1:12:42Speaker 1: they can help you get your registration issues resolved if possible,
- 1:12:46Speaker 1: and they can tell you what you need to do.
- 1:12:48Speaker 1: But no matter what happens, do not get out of line.
- 1:12:51Speaker 1: Do you think fair Fight has done his job? You
- 1:12:54Speaker 1: know what role do you think fair Fight played and
- 1:12:56Speaker 1: ensuring at the voting process is fair all across the
- 1:12:59Speaker 1: country today. But stay, we'll answer that when we come back.
- 1:13:02Speaker 1: All right, Stacy Abrams is here. Today's election day, so
- 1:13:05Speaker 1: don't move. We got more with Stacy Abrams. When we
- 1:13:07Speaker 1: come back, it's the Breakfast Club. Good morning, wanting everybody
- 1:13:11Speaker 1: is DJ Envy and lu Ye Shalomagne the guy we
- 1:13:14Speaker 1: are the Breakfast Club would be enjoined by Stacy Abrams
- 1:13:17Speaker 1: this morning. Now, Shaloman, you had a question. Yeah, I
- 1:13:19Speaker 1: was talking about Stacey's initiative Fair Fight, and I was
- 1:13:21Speaker 1: just wondering, you know, what role has fair Fight played
- 1:13:23Speaker 1: and is sharing at the voting process? Is fair all
- 1:13:26Speaker 1: across the country today? So when I wanted fair Fight
- 1:13:28Speaker 1: in twenty eighteen, my first mission was to lift up
- 1:13:32Speaker 1: the issue of voter suppression, to talk about it out loud,
- 1:13:34Speaker 1: because we've known about it for years, but no one
- 1:13:37Speaker 1: really was willing to say it aloud because we were
- 1:13:39Speaker 1: afraid it would scare people. What I wanted people to
- 1:13:41Speaker 1: understand is whether we said it or not, it was
- 1:13:43Speaker 1: going to affect us, so we might as well talk
- 1:13:44Speaker 1: about it. So Number one, I think we have had
- 1:13:46Speaker 1: a robust conversation over the last two years about voter suppression.
- 1:13:50Speaker 1: Number two, in the state of Georgia, we were able
- 1:13:52Speaker 1: to change some of the worst laws related to voter suppression,
- 1:13:56Speaker 1: making sure that exact match no longer holds black and
- 1:13:58Speaker 1: Brown voters hostage, but also making sure that if you
- 1:14:01Speaker 1: make a mistake on your absentee ballot, you now have
- 1:14:04Speaker 1: time to fix it. They have to tell you there
- 1:14:06Speaker 1: was a mistake, and they've got to let you fix it.
- 1:14:08Speaker 1: But across the country, starting in August of twenty nineteen,
- 1:14:11Speaker 1: we have been in twenty battleground states. Were there to
- 1:14:14Speaker 1: help make sure that voters got restored to the roles
- 1:14:16Speaker 1: and Andy Basher became the governor of Kentucky when the
- 1:14:19Speaker 1: Republican governor tried to purge one hundred and forty five thousand.
- 1:14:22Speaker 1: We were down in Louisiana when John Bell Edwards needed
- 1:14:25Speaker 1: black voters who were facing voter suppression, when were able
- 1:14:27Speaker 1: to make sure they could make it through those lines
- 1:14:29Speaker 1: and get to vote, and he was restored. We were
- 1:14:31Speaker 1: in Wisconsin in April making sure that voters got the
- 1:14:34Speaker 1: right to vote even in the midst of COVID, and
- 1:14:37Speaker 1: we have been working across the country helping shore up
- 1:14:39Speaker 1: through litigation, legislation, and advocacy and the one number I
- 1:14:43Speaker 1: all uses this. In January of twenty twenty, only thirty
- 1:14:47Speaker 1: four states allowed you to vote by mail with no excuse.
- 1:14:51Speaker 1: As of today, it's forty five states. That means that
- 1:14:54Speaker 1: in forty five states out of fifty people have the
- 1:14:57Speaker 1: right and have had the right to vote absentee. That
- 1:15:00Speaker 1: huge because in the midst of a pandemic, it was
- 1:15:02Speaker 1: the safest way to vote. And I want to remind
- 1:15:04Speaker 1: everyone if you have an abstine t ballot, take it
- 1:15:06Speaker 1: directly to your elections office, to your drop box, get
- 1:15:09Speaker 1: it in. Do not hand it to the post office.
- 1:15:11Speaker 1: Today's last call. Drop it in yourself and make sure
- 1:15:14Speaker 1: that you get your ballot turned in. Do you think
- 1:15:16Speaker 1: we will know a winner for tonight because some people
- 1:15:18Speaker 1: say we might possibly know. What are your thoughts on that?
- 1:15:21Speaker 1: So what we use, what we're used to our predictions.
- 1:15:24Speaker 1: We don't ever know the actual answer on election night
- 1:15:27Speaker 1: because states take time to count. We will likely have predictions,
- 1:15:32Speaker 1: but hopefully the predictions will be based on the best information.
- 1:15:35Speaker 1: And my hope is that we won't hear anything until
- 1:15:37Speaker 1: people know something. It is better for us to get
- 1:15:40Speaker 1: an answer that is slow and right than fast and wrong.
- 1:15:43Speaker 1: And if we take the time to count all of
- 1:15:46Speaker 1: these apps and tea ballots. More than one hundred million
- 1:15:48Speaker 1: people voted early, and it takes more time to count
- 1:15:51Speaker 1: paper ballots. We need to be patient. We don't need
- 1:15:55Speaker 1: to know the answer when we go to bed. What
- 1:15:56Speaker 1: we need to know when we go to bed tonight
- 1:15:58Speaker 1: is that every American who wanted to vote got a
- 1:16:00Speaker 1: chance to vote. We'll get the answer, but I'd rather
- 1:16:03Speaker 1: have the answer to be right than have an answer
- 1:16:05Speaker 1: that's unclear and that leads to chaos. Stacy, do you
- 1:16:09Speaker 1: think the Democratic model as currently constructed a sustainable meaning?
- 1:16:12Speaker 1: Black men and black women are the largest group of
- 1:16:15Speaker 1: voters for Democrats, but it's always show up for them,
- 1:16:18Speaker 1: but a lot of black people feel like they don't
- 1:16:19Speaker 1: show up for us. How much longer can that work
- 1:16:22Speaker 1: for Democrats if it works today? Well, I frame it
- 1:16:26Speaker 1: slightly differently. Yes, Black voters have been the most loyal
- 1:16:30Speaker 1: contingency of the Democratic Party, and we are being joined
- 1:16:34Speaker 1: by more and more young people, by more and more
- 1:16:35Speaker 1: people of color, Latino, Asian, American, Pacific Islander, Native American.
- 1:16:39Speaker 1: We're being joined by white voters who realize that the
- 1:16:42Speaker 1: Republican model does not help them progress. But we also
- 1:16:45Speaker 1: have to remember our numbers are different. For so long,
- 1:16:48Speaker 1: we voted in a party where we were not only
- 1:16:50Speaker 1: the minority in the population. We're the minority in the party.
- 1:16:53Speaker 1: But when you add together all of the rising American electorate,
- 1:16:57Speaker 1: we now have the ability to actually set the if
- 1:17:00Speaker 1: we show up. And that's the big piece I think
- 1:17:02Speaker 1: it's missing in this conversation. Twenty years ago, there weren't
- 1:17:06Speaker 1: enough of us to absolutely guarantee outcomes. Now there are.
- 1:17:09Speaker 1: If we actually voted our power, we have the ability
- 1:17:12Speaker 1: to not only change the direction of the Democratic Party,
- 1:17:14Speaker 1: we can change the direction of the nation. But we've
- 1:17:17Speaker 1: got to recognize that it's a dual responsibility. We need
- 1:17:20Speaker 1: those we need folks to pour into us, but we've
- 1:17:22Speaker 1: got to pour into ourselves and make sure that we
- 1:17:24Speaker 1: vote our power up and down the ballot, because it's
- 1:17:27Speaker 1: not just about who wins the presidency, it's about who
- 1:17:29Speaker 1: wins every single seat and makes every single law. So
- 1:17:33Speaker 1: after we do that, how do we make clear I
- 1:17:36Speaker 1: guess what do we do next? Like, do we make
- 1:17:38Speaker 1: clear demands and to tell them what we want? Absolutely?
- 1:17:42Speaker 1: So I talked about it this way. We protest in
- 1:17:44Speaker 1: the streets to demand what we want. We protest at
- 1:17:47Speaker 1: the ballot box to get who we need, and then
- 1:17:49Speaker 1: we protest in the halls of power to hold them accountable.
- 1:17:52Speaker 1: Politics the only job where you get hired and then
- 1:17:54Speaker 1: people leave for two to four years and expect you
- 1:17:56Speaker 1: to just do what you're supposed to do. If we
- 1:17:58Speaker 1: don't hold people accountable, why would we think they're going
- 1:18:00Speaker 1: to do what we need them to do. Yes, well, Stacy,
- 1:18:03Speaker 1: thank you so much for joining us. I know it's
- 1:18:04Speaker 1: a super busy day you have all these live TV hits,
- 1:18:07Speaker 1: but we do always appreciate you for checking in and
- 1:18:09Speaker 1: keeping us informed. Already, she has a live hit in
- 1:18:12Speaker 1: five minutes. Let me get one. I got one morning, Stacy.
- 1:18:17Speaker 1: You are a VP hopeful. People say Stacey was campaigning
- 1:18:20Speaker 1: for the job. Was that over the case, and if so,
- 1:18:23Speaker 1: how do you feel today? I never campaigned for the job.
- 1:18:26Speaker 1: I answered questions, and apparently being honest is not supposed
- 1:18:29Speaker 1: to happen. I don't believe in denying my ambition because
- 1:18:34Speaker 1: I'm not just speaking for myself. I'm speaking for every
- 1:18:36Speaker 1: black and brown girl who's ever wanted more and people.
- 1:18:39Speaker 1: I can't assume people will give me the benefits of
- 1:18:41Speaker 1: the doubt. I've got to give myself the platform, and
- 1:18:45Speaker 1: if you ask me a question, I'm going to give
- 1:18:46Speaker 1: you an answer, and I've always tried to be candid,
- 1:18:49Speaker 1: and I was candid. Then let's remember I got the
- 1:18:51Speaker 1: same question starting in March of twenty nineteen, the only
- 1:18:54Speaker 1: person who was asked that question over and over again
- 1:18:56Speaker 1: for eighteen months, and my answer never changed. It's just
- 1:19:00Speaker 1: started paying attention. All right, Well, Stacey, we appreciate you
- 1:19:02Speaker 1: for checking in. Thank you so much. Thank you you guys,
- 1:19:05Speaker 1: eight to six hour vote, Get it done. All right? Now,
- 1:19:09Speaker 1: we got rumors on the way, yes, and bad news
- 1:19:12Speaker 1: for Genie May. She has been hospitalized and has to
- 1:19:15Speaker 1: leave Dancing with the Stars. We'll tell you what you
- 1:19:17Speaker 1: had to say, all right, we'll get to that next.
- 1:19:19Speaker 1: It's the Breakfast Club. Go Morning, the Breakfast Club. This
- 1:19:25Speaker 1: is the rumor report with Angela Yeast Club. Well. Timberland
- 1:19:34Speaker 1: posted a picture of Joda see on the cover of
- 1:19:37Speaker 1: Vibe magazine and said this group changed R and B.
- 1:19:39Speaker 1: Y'all will soon see hashtag versus who would you like
- 1:19:43Speaker 1: to see Joda see battle? I love Joda see I
- 1:19:46Speaker 1: mean Joda see could battle any of the groups I
- 1:19:48Speaker 1: mean the drew Hills of the World, the Jagged Edges,
- 1:19:51Speaker 1: I mean, the Jaggets, did one twelve? Did one twelve?
- 1:19:54Speaker 1: So I guess the only who did I just say,
- 1:19:56Speaker 1: other than one twelve? Jacket Edge, Who'd I say? You
- 1:19:58Speaker 1: said Drew Hill? But yeah, Jodi and Drew Hill would
- 1:20:01Speaker 1: be a good one. No one, Why not? DA has
- 1:20:04Speaker 1: so many Rember. I'm a Joda see guy all day.
- 1:20:07Speaker 1: I'm you know, Joda ce plays in my crib on
- 1:20:09Speaker 1: a regular daily, weekly whatever. But I think Jodi Drew
- 1:20:12Speaker 1: Hill wouldn't be bad. I saw people saying boys to men.
- 1:20:15Speaker 1: I saw a lot of that. Nah boys, the men
- 1:20:17Speaker 1: didn't have those Um, I don't think boysman had those
- 1:20:21Speaker 1: cultural anthems like Jodac had boys. Men had big commercial records.
- 1:20:25Speaker 1: Well yeah, well they had End of the Road. That's
- 1:20:28Speaker 1: a big commercial record. Yeah, and you know, you know
- 1:20:31Speaker 1: your mighty right. I don't know who could really battle
- 1:20:33Speaker 1: Joda see around the end of the Road. Now it's
- 1:20:36Speaker 1: like riding with the windshield wife was going and it
- 1:20:38Speaker 1: ain't even raining, you know what I mean? Like Yan,
- 1:20:40Speaker 1: I mean, there's nobody the northern groups of Blackstreet or
- 1:20:43Speaker 1: New Edition, and you know I mean that one Drew
- 1:20:46Speaker 1: Hill would be the only thing that makes sense to
- 1:20:48Speaker 1: me against Joda. See all right, Well, Genie May was hospitalized.
- 1:20:52Speaker 1: She has a thrill condition, and she was forced to
- 1:20:55Speaker 1: leave Dancing with the Stars. She said, this absolutely devastated
- 1:21:01Speaker 1: that my journey on Detimate starsend this way. I found
- 1:21:07Speaker 1: out that I have a throat abscess where my tonsils
- 1:21:12Speaker 1: and my throat had gotten so infected that it started
- 1:21:15Speaker 1: permeating to the rest of the areas behind my neck
- 1:21:18Speaker 1: and my ears. That I had to get emergency surve
- 1:21:21Speaker 1: for you, which is why I'm here now. Everything went gray.
- 1:21:25Speaker 1: One more day, your throat would have closed up now.
- 1:21:28Speaker 1: Her dance partner also put out a video message to
- 1:21:30Speaker 1: saying that they were devastated by the news. So she
- 1:21:33Speaker 1: won't be able to compete this season because of these
- 1:21:35Speaker 1: health concerns. Fortunately, it seems like she'll be okay. So
- 1:21:39Speaker 1: lout to Genie. I'm glad she caught that throat condition,
- 1:21:41Speaker 1: and I wonder what causes that, and I hope we
- 1:21:44Speaker 1: don't find out. Genie. Now you mean you're glad you
- 1:21:46Speaker 1: caught it early. I'm glad she caught her throat condition
- 1:21:52Speaker 1: early so she could do something about it. Um, And
- 1:21:56Speaker 1: I just wonder what causes that. I hope we don't
- 1:21:57Speaker 1: find out Genie Ma was walking around the house doing
- 1:22:00Speaker 1: Jeez's ad libs. And you know that that russho something
- 1:22:03Speaker 1: in her throat. All right, now, Chrissy Teagan has gotten
- 1:22:06Speaker 1: a tattoo and that's honoring her late son Jack. So
- 1:22:10Speaker 1: you know, unfortunately for her would have been the third baby.
- 1:22:12Speaker 1: The baby died in just twenty weeks. She now has
- 1:22:16Speaker 1: made sure he'll always be remembered with the tattoo of
- 1:22:19Speaker 1: his name on her wrist. So a lot of people, actually,
- 1:22:22Speaker 1: after she posted that, a lot of her fans started
- 1:22:24Speaker 1: posting photos of tattoos they got to honor loved ones
- 1:22:26Speaker 1: that they lost as well. Wow, yes, and the legends
- 1:22:31Speaker 1: all right. Monique said that Whoopie Goldberg told her to
- 1:22:35Speaker 1: get rid of her husband. And here's what she had
- 1:22:37Speaker 1: to say. As she was talking on out Loud with
- 1:22:39Speaker 1: Claudia Jordan on Fox Soul, and she said to me,
- 1:22:42Speaker 1: it's your husband. You gotta get rid of your husband.
- 1:22:45Speaker 1: And I said, Whoopie, my husband negotiated the biggest deals
- 1:22:48Speaker 1: I've had in my career, along with our attorney, Ricky Anderson,
- 1:22:51Speaker 1: two black men. And she went dead silent, and then
- 1:22:54Speaker 1: she said, you better stop worrying about that little girl
- 1:22:57Speaker 1: coming behind you, and you better worry about you. At
- 1:23:00Speaker 1: that moment, I knew Whoopi Goldberg wasn't worried about me
- 1:23:02Speaker 1: because I'm the little girl coming behind her. So you
- 1:23:05Speaker 1: can't go againsist machine. And because your husband is a
- 1:23:09Speaker 1: proud black man and he wants answers that they cannot give,
- 1:23:12Speaker 1: you need to let him go. That's what that black
- 1:23:15Speaker 1: woman was saying to me. In addition to that, she
- 1:23:17Speaker 1: says that she does not regret the drama that she
- 1:23:20Speaker 1: had with Lee Daniels, Tyler Perry, and Oprah. She said
- 1:23:23Speaker 1: she keep on speaking her truth and fighting for her
- 1:23:26Speaker 1: family as long as she has breath in her body.
- 1:23:28Speaker 1: And she said that whole ordeal did cost her and
- 1:23:30Speaker 1: her family millions of dollars and generational money, but she
- 1:23:33Speaker 1: wants to make sure the matter does get resolved. She's
- 1:23:35Speaker 1: not going to stop until it does. You know, I
- 1:23:38Speaker 1: had a friend tell me yesterday that Monique is absolutely
- 1:23:41Speaker 1: right in regards that everything she says about Oprah, Tyler Ferry,
- 1:23:45Speaker 1: and Lee Daniels liked. They said, Monique told them from
- 1:23:48Speaker 1: the beginning she wouldn't be able to travel for that movie,
- 1:23:52Speaker 1: and they knew that. I don't know what's true or
- 1:23:54Speaker 1: was that. I'm just saying, I'm just giving a different perspective.
- 1:23:56Speaker 1: That's what somebody said to me yesterday. All right, Well
- 1:23:58Speaker 1: I'm Angela Yee and that is your rumor report. All right, Well,
- 1:24:02Speaker 1: let me ask you guys a question. Jody see, what
- 1:24:04Speaker 1: about TLC or s w V. What what about them?
- 1:24:08Speaker 1: A bad versus battle? That'd be dope? No? Well, no,
- 1:24:12Speaker 1: I would like to see them against s w V.
- 1:24:14Speaker 1: I think that's a good matchup. Maybe they had a
- 1:24:16Speaker 1: lot of s w V. Wouldn't be bad. That actually
- 1:24:20Speaker 1: wouldn't be bad. Joda C versus I would like that, Yeah,
- 1:24:23Speaker 1: because I'm a big fans of both of them. I
- 1:24:24Speaker 1: don't know who I would pick, Tony Tony Tony TLC
- 1:24:29Speaker 1: us versus. I'm here for that. I'm here for Joda
- 1:24:34Speaker 1: C versus Tony, Tony Tony versus s w V. I like.
- 1:24:40Speaker 1: I don't know if I like that. Who do you have?
- 1:24:42Speaker 1: I'm gonna tell you why. I like that because they
- 1:24:44Speaker 1: both had freaky songs, you know what I'm saying, And
- 1:24:47Speaker 1: it'd be like a dope at home date night type
- 1:24:50Speaker 1: of versus battle. I like that I like Joda ce
- 1:24:53Speaker 1: versus Tony Tony Tony you got, I got Tony Tony
- 1:24:56Speaker 1: Tony Bro. That's tough, Bro, Tony feels good, ever, rains anniversary,
- 1:25:09Speaker 1: whatever you want. Yeah, but it's tough, man, It's tough Tony.
- 1:25:14Speaker 1: You gotta get along with each other again because y'all
- 1:25:16Speaker 1: messed up that relationship. Yeah, that's the tough one. I
- 1:25:20Speaker 1: still like Joda c Drew Hill, but I like the

- 1:28:44Speaker 1: So also is always welcome. Test checked in as well. Yeah,
- 1:28:49Speaker 1: make sure you check out that great shot. No chase
- 1:28:51Speaker 1: of podcasts on the Black Effect. iHeartRadio podcast Network available
- 1:28:55Speaker 1: wherever you uh listen to podcasts. Stacy Abrams she checked
- 1:28:59Speaker 1: in as well. Salute to Stacey Abrams. Wish we could
- 1:29:01Speaker 1: have got to talk to Stacy a little longer. Had
- 1:29:03Speaker 1: a couple more questions for Stacey a super busy day
- 1:29:06Speaker 1: for her, I guess because of what she does and
- 1:29:08Speaker 1: vote to suppression and fair fight. I know it's been
- 1:29:11Speaker 1: a crazy time. And also from South Carolina, Jamie Harrison
- 1:29:15Speaker 1: checked it as well. Jamie Harrison, he's running for senator
- 1:29:17Speaker 1: in South Carolina. Man, please make sure y'all going vote
- 1:29:20Speaker 1: for Jimmy Harrison. Let's get Lindsay Lady bud Graham up
- 1:29:22Speaker 1: out of there. All right, Well you got a positive note. Well,
- 1:29:25Speaker 1: I don't really have a positive note. It's just more
- 1:29:27Speaker 1: of a statement. I said it early in the show,
- 1:29:30Speaker 1: and I want to expound on it just a little bit,
- 1:29:32Speaker 1: like we have no idea what the world is going
- 1:29:34Speaker 1: to look like after the day, but just know, whatever happens,
- 1:29:37Speaker 1: it's all God's will. As my late great friend Jasmine
- 1:29:40Speaker 1: Jazz Fly Waters used to say, trust God to God. Okay,
- 1:29:43Speaker 1: if Republicans win black people, we got work to do.
- 1:29:46Speaker 1: If Democrats win black people, we got work to do.
- 1:29:48Speaker 1: The illusion of America has been revealed to everybody this year,
- 1:29:51Speaker 1: and this system was considered normal has never worked for
- 1:29:54Speaker 1: all of us. So tonight, regardless of who wins, it's
- 1:29:57Speaker 1: really nothing to celebrate. Trump administration wins, gonna keep community building,
- 1:30:01Speaker 1: job creating and dealing with politics on a local level
- 1:30:04Speaker 1: and supporting those who choose to engage, you know, with
- 1:30:06Speaker 1: that administration on our behalf, and you know, vice versa.
- 1:30:10Speaker 1: If Democrats win, you know, nearly one hundred million people
- 1:30:12Speaker 1: have voted already. Who knows what that walk up is
- 1:30:15Speaker 1: gonna be like today, But once again, regardless of what
- 1:30:18Speaker 1: happens tonight, it's nothing to celebrate. So I guess the
- 1:30:21Speaker 1: moral of the story is simply, Black people, we got
- 1:30:25Speaker 1: work to do. Preface club pitches, you know, finish a
- 1:30:28Speaker 1: y'all done,
