• 1:37
  SPEAKER_01: It's been even though it's only been maybe three weeks,
• 1:39
  SPEAKER_01: but it's been, you know, it's it's it's just crazy.
• 1:44
  SPEAKER_01: I don't even think it's a very crazy time right now.
• 1:48
  SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
• 1:49
  SPEAKER_01: Everything's happening all at once.
• 1:52
  SPEAKER_01: I'm going to revoke your press pass just because I feel like it.
• 1:57
  SPEAKER_01: Just because
• 2:00
  SPEAKER_00: I want to.
• 2:01
  SPEAKER_00: Yeah.
• 2:02
  SPEAKER_00: I've had to step back.
• 2:06
  SPEAKER_00: I'm fatigued, not just tired.
• 2:08
  SPEAKER_00: I am fatigued right now,
• 2:11
  SPEAKER_00: and we've got stuff going on with the medical issues in my family,
• 2:19
  SPEAKER_00: extended family, not me directly.
• 2:22
  SPEAKER_00: And it's just, it's a lot.
• 2:28
  SPEAKER_00: It's everybody stressed,
• 2:30
  SPEAKER_01: you know?
• 2:31
  SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
• 2:32
  SPEAKER_01: This is what I wrote in my article that published on Sunday through Blue Amp.
• 2:36
  SPEAKER_01: It was Why Elections Matter.
• 2:37
  SPEAKER_01: And what we're seeing now and what I'm seeing in the clinic and what we're hearing,
• 2:42
  SPEAKER_01: what you're experiencing is this is just chronic stress fatigue.
• 2:47
  SPEAKER_01: It's not even like fatigue or just stress alone.
• 2:50
  SPEAKER_01: Like we can deal with acute stress.
• 2:51
  SPEAKER_01: We're built to deal with acute stress.
• 2:53
  SPEAKER_01: We compensate.
• 2:55
  SPEAKER_01: But when we start getting tired, we start getting lack of sleep.
• 2:58
  SPEAKER_01: We don't eat right.
• 2:59
  SPEAKER_01: We're not exercising.
• 3:01
  SPEAKER_01: We get chronically.
• 3:02
  SPEAKER_01: This is the chronic inflammation stuff.
• 3:04
  SPEAKER_00: Are we sure we're not doing like your chronically illing out show today?
• 3:08
  SPEAKER_01: Because that's like, you know, but this is what happens.
• 3:12
  SPEAKER_01: We're seeing this in the clinic and it's not and it's not about your medical issues.
• 3:16
  SPEAKER_01: Okay.
• 3:16
  SPEAKER_01: It's not about your medical problems.
• 3:18
  SPEAKER_01: It's about the gasoline that's $4.55 or $4.65 or $4.75 a gallon.
• 3:24
  SPEAKER_01: It's the price of groceries.
• 3:25
  SPEAKER_01: It's the price of bread at $6.99 a loaf.
• 3:29
  SPEAKER_01: Yeah, you talk about eggs and chicken going down,
• 3:31
  SPEAKER_01: but when beef is $48 a pound for filet or $18.99 for ground chuck,
• 3:40
  SPEAKER_01: and then you have the secretary going and saying,
• 3:41
  SPEAKER_01: oh, just eat more pork and more eggs.
• 3:43
  SPEAKER_01: Well, that's great, but what if you're Muslim?
• 3:45
  SPEAKER_01: You don't eat pork.
• 3:47
  SPEAKER_01: Right?
• 3:49
  SPEAKER_01: Or you're kosher.
• 3:51
  SPEAKER_01: Yeah, if you keep kosher, you're not eating a lot of dairy.
• 3:57
  SPEAKER_01: This administration is corrupt.
• 4:00
  SPEAKER_01: I'm just going to flat out say it.
• 4:02
  SPEAKER_01: It's corrupt.
• 4:03
  SPEAKER_01: It's a criminal enterprise.
• 4:04
  SPEAKER_01: I said it the other night.
• 4:05
  SPEAKER_01: I said it the other day in a post.
• 4:07
  SPEAKER_01: We are dealing with a criminal enterprise administration.
• 4:11
  SPEAKER_01: The entire...
• 4:14
  SPEAKER_01: Second tier of our government is a corrupt criminal organization
• 4:18
  SPEAKER_01: that makes Nixon look like a pop-up lemonade stand.
• 4:25
  SPEAKER_00: Yeah.
• 4:28
  SPEAKER_00: And building on that topic itself is I'm going to pull something,
• 4:35
  SPEAKER_00: hopefully if I can find my downloads for it, is...
• 4:42
  SPEAKER_00: The new ruling today from
• 4:48
  SPEAKER_00: the federal judge in the Texas v.
• 4:52
  SPEAKER_00: Kennedy case, which nullified part of the integration mandate from Section 504 and
• 5:06
  SPEAKER_00: Well,
• 5:06
  SPEAKER_00: they've approved the resolution proposed by the Department of Justice on behalf
• 5:10
  SPEAKER_00: of HHS to nullify the rule,
• 5:14
  SPEAKER_00: which means we're getting closer and closer and closer
• 5:22
  SPEAKER_01: to re-institutionalizing everybody.
• 5:24
  SPEAKER_00: No, right now what we're getting closer to is re-institutionalizing segregation into the system.
• 5:32
  SPEAKER_00: And re-implementing ugly laws as basically if you're too disabled.
• 5:39
  SPEAKER_00: Which will then lead to institutionalization of people or warehousing more specifically.
• 5:45
  SPEAKER_01: You can't.
• 5:48
  SPEAKER_01: This is where when people say I can't, you need to dig deeper and push.
• 5:53
  SPEAKER_01: Because this is the type of shit that is designed to break everybody down.
• 6:01
  SPEAKER_01: This is exactly, this is what we call, this is the gene pool maintenance.
• 6:07
  SPEAKER_01: This is like a corrupt justice system.
• 6:09
  SPEAKER_01: It's a corrupt DOJ.
• 6:10
  SPEAKER_01: It's a corrupt administrative branch.
• 6:13
  SPEAKER_01: It's, this is, I mean, this,
• 6:15
  SPEAKER_01: and you wonder why people are upset and why Idaho's in play and Kansas is in play
• 6:19
  SPEAKER_01: and Nebraska and Alaska, Texas, Florida, why everything is shifting electorally.
• 6:28
  SPEAKER_01: Because people are just fucking done.
• 6:31
  SPEAKER_01: With all of this, they're just done.
• 6:35
  SPEAKER_01: Like, I was done after January 22nd,
• 6:38
  SPEAKER_01: but that was, you know, I was last year, January 22nd, I was kind of done.
• 6:42
  SPEAKER_01: But like,
• 6:43
  SPEAKER_01: now people are really done because it's getting closer to that time
• 6:46
  SPEAKER_01: when people are starting to vote already.
• 6:49
  SPEAKER_01: It's getting really inexpensive to do anything.
• 6:56
  SPEAKER_01: Who's the judge, by the way?
• 7:00
  SPEAKER_00: Um...
• 7:02
  SPEAKER_00: I don't know.
• 7:03
  SPEAKER_00: Will it say in this order?
• 7:05
  SPEAKER_01: This is the Northern District of Texas.
• 7:07
  SPEAKER_01: This is this is the Fifth District.
• 7:10
  SPEAKER_01: So this is the this is that piece of shit judge that was that's just pro MAGA.
• 7:15
  SPEAKER_00: So this is the final order order and final judgment on Section 504 is final rule.
• 7:23
  SPEAKER_00: On non-discrimination on the basis of disability and programs
• 7:27
  SPEAKER_00: or activities receiving federal financial assistance.
• 7:31
  SPEAKER_00: This is going to get appealed.
• 7:33
  SPEAKER_01: This will be appealed.
• 7:34
  SPEAKER_01: This will get appealed.
• 7:36
  SPEAKER_00: However...
• 7:37
  SPEAKER_01: It's effective law as of right now.
• 7:40
  SPEAKER_00: Yes, it's an effective law,
• 7:42
  SPEAKER_00: and we know the Supreme Court and higher courts don't always give a shit
• 7:47
  SPEAKER_00: about moving things quickly if it only impacts...
• 7:53
  SPEAKER_00: Normal people or people who are not in the plutocratic class like they're not going
• 8:00
  SPEAKER_00: to move fast on this.
• 8:03
  SPEAKER_00: So they're changing the definition of most integrated setting.
• 8:09
  SPEAKER_01: This is going over that just kind of go over that exactly
• 8:13
  SPEAKER_00: like what that means.
• 8:14
  SPEAKER_01: Let me.
• 8:17
  SPEAKER_01: So this is what it did.
• 8:19
  SPEAKER_01: So the ruling is, quote,
• 8:21
  SPEAKER_01: the federal court approved a joint motion and proposed resolution followed by
• 8:24
  SPEAKER_01: the US DOJ,
• 8:26
  SPEAKER_01: HHS, and plaintiff states, including Texas and Florida, closing the case.
• 8:31
  SPEAKER_01: And what it does is it's vacated
• 8:33
  SPEAKER_01: the specific community integration mandate nationwide,
• 8:37
  SPEAKER_01: including the definition of most integrated setting,
• 8:41
  SPEAKER_01: which was under 45 CFR 84.10, general integration requirements,
• 8:47
  SPEAKER_01: So what this basically has done is it didn't strike down the foundational statute
• 8:52
  SPEAKER_01: of Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act, which was the Olmstead decision.
• 8:56
  SPEAKER_01: But what it's basically done is it's vacated the federal government's ability
• 9:00
  SPEAKER_01: to police anything and to have a responsibility to police components of what falls
• 9:07
  SPEAKER_01: under Section 504.
• 9:10
  SPEAKER_00: It's basically what it's done.
• 9:12
  SPEAKER_01: And it applies to facilities, education and medical equipment.
• 9:18
  SPEAKER_01: The things that remain in effect are like web and mobile accessibility,
• 9:22
  SPEAKER_01: medical diagnostic equipment,
• 9:24
  SPEAKER_01: and non-discrimination in child welfare and medical treatment.
• 9:29
  SPEAKER_01: Those are still unaffected.
• 9:31
  SPEAKER_01: So really what it is is the whole integration provision against segregation,
• 9:35
  SPEAKER_01: institutionalization, and those related applications.
• 9:38
  SPEAKER_01: So this is basically what it pretty much means.
• 9:45
  SPEAKER_00: And as Naida's pointing out is via the 2024 regulations only.
• 9:51
  SPEAKER_00: That's what they're ruling against and or have come to final judgment on.
• 9:57
  SPEAKER_00: Again, this doesn't mean that we're suddenly going to have discrimination everywhere.
• 10:04
  SPEAKER_00: This just opens the door back up to mean that the Justice Department or
• 10:10
  SPEAKER_00: the Department of Injustice right now is not going to Side
• 10:17
  SPEAKER_00: with people filing complaints of disability related issues for discrimination.
• 10:24
  SPEAKER_01: Correct.
• 10:25
  SPEAKER_00: And keep in mind that this impacts every program.
• 10:29
  SPEAKER_00: Everybody.
• 10:30
  SPEAKER_00: And every institution that receives federal funding.
• 10:34
  SPEAKER_00: Right.
• 10:34
  SPEAKER_00: And that's part of the key is if it receives federal funding, it impacts us.
• 10:39
  SPEAKER_00: This could be a job.
• 10:41
  SPEAKER_00: This could be your school.
• 10:45
  SPEAKER_00: Or your university.
• 10:46
  SPEAKER_00: This could be your kids' school,
• 10:49
  SPEAKER_00: your elementary school,
• 10:51
  SPEAKER_00: your hospital,
• 10:53
  SPEAKER_00: your care centers, your inpatient clinics, your local emergency areas.
• 11:00
  SPEAKER_01: Airplanes, airports, port authorities, everything.
• 11:06
  SPEAKER_00: Yeah.
• 11:07
  SPEAKER_00: There's slow walking ugly laws back into...
• 11:14
  SPEAKER_00: Right.
• 11:14
  SPEAKER_00: Well, they're not really slow walking.
• 11:16
  SPEAKER_01: No, they're not slow walking it, but yeah.
• 11:18
  SPEAKER_00: They're going to fairly quickly walk it into discriminatory territory.
• 11:22
  SPEAKER_00: Let me make this distinction,
• 11:23
  SPEAKER_01: though, next.
• 11:24
  SPEAKER_01: So don't forget, too, there are state disability laws as well.
• 11:28
  SPEAKER_01: So if you live in a state where it's still illegal to do this,
• 11:33
  SPEAKER_01: even if they get federal funds,
• 11:35
  SPEAKER_01: it's like,
• 11:35
  SPEAKER_01: for example,
• 11:36
  SPEAKER_01: like in Massachusetts,
• 11:37
  SPEAKER_01: the state of Massachusetts has very strong disability rights laws.
• 11:41
  SPEAKER_01: Okay.
• 11:42
  SPEAKER_01: I live in Florida.
• 11:43
  SPEAKER_01: Nick, you live in Arkansas.
• 11:44
  SPEAKER_01: We don't.
• 11:46
  SPEAKER_01: Correct.
• 11:46
  SPEAKER_01: Right.
• 11:47
  SPEAKER_00: So this is really.
• 11:49
  SPEAKER_00: And Florida was one of the states that was.
• 11:51
  SPEAKER_00: They were one of the plaintiff's final judgment.
• 11:54
  SPEAKER_00: Fucking DeSantis, what did you expect?
• 11:55
  SPEAKER_00: So, Texas, Florida, Alaska, Louisiana, and Montana.
• 11:59
  SPEAKER_01: Gee, red, red, red, red, and more red.
• 12:03
  SPEAKER_01: Which...
• 12:04
  SPEAKER_01: By all means,
• 12:04
  SPEAKER_01: everybody,
• 12:05
  SPEAKER_01: continue to vote for these racist,
• 12:11
  SPEAKER_01: discriminatory pieces of shit that continue to take your rights away,
• 12:16
  SPEAKER_01: that are enabling all this fucking behavior...
• 12:21
  SPEAKER_01: Okay, and all this stupid shit that doesn't do anything for people.
• 12:27
  SPEAKER_01: It's all about how can we bootlick Trump, screw everybody else.
• 12:35
  SPEAKER_01: This reminds me of that scene from History of the World with Mel Brooks,
• 12:39
  SPEAKER_01: you know,
• 12:39
  SPEAKER_01: where they all raise their hands and it's the Roman Senate and they say,
• 12:42
  SPEAKER_01: fuck the poor.
• 12:44
  SPEAKER_01: Do we feed the... Do we take care of our fellow constituents or do we just...
• 12:51
  SPEAKER_01: Rise above it all.
• 12:52
  SPEAKER_01: Fuck the poor.
• 12:53
  SPEAKER_01: That was the scene, right?
• 12:55
  SPEAKER_01: This is the same thing.
• 12:57
  SPEAKER_01: This is screw the people who don't have enough rights in our eyes because they're disabled.
• 13:04
  SPEAKER_01: Well, the reality is everybody, guess what?
• 13:07
  SPEAKER_01: At every certain point in your life,
• 13:09
  SPEAKER_01: you're going to get disabled,
• 13:11
  SPEAKER_01: whether it's from elective surgery or a traumatic accident or a debilitating disease
• 13:16
  SPEAKER_01: or...
• 13:18
  SPEAKER_01: Whatever.
• 13:18
  SPEAKER_01: You are going to be disabled at some point in your life.
• 13:23
  SPEAKER_01: Whether it's from serving in our military,
• 13:29
  SPEAKER_01: serving in the fire department, having elective surgery, it doesn't matter.
• 13:34
  SPEAKER_01: Okay?
• 13:35
  SPEAKER_01: And it doesn't matter if it's mental disability, physical disability, or learning disability.
• 13:43
  SPEAKER_00: Disability is a disability.
• 13:46
  SPEAKER_00: And there is a Looking back on that statement,
• 13:52
  SPEAKER_00: I put a statement out a while ago when they started the electric shock gloves
• 14:00
  SPEAKER_00: that are out by compliant technology that ICE is using,
• 14:04
  SPEAKER_00: that prisons have been using, that schools have been using.
• 14:09
  SPEAKER_00: And I use the term disabled children because they...
• 14:14
  SPEAKER_00: Tested it at a school for disabled children in Omaha, Nebraska.
• 14:18
  SPEAKER_00: Remember that.
• 14:20
  SPEAKER_01: That was back in June.
• 14:20
  SPEAKER_00: Somebody commented on that and was like, well,
• 14:24
  SPEAKER_00: when you said disabled,
• 14:25
  SPEAKER_00: you're very misleading because when somebody says disabled,
• 14:30
  SPEAKER_00: I assume kids in wheelchairs and severely Disabled kids.
• 14:35
  SPEAKER_00: And I was like, well, that's your.
• 14:37
  SPEAKER_00: And I didn't respond to him because I wasn't going to feed the troll.
• 14:40
  SPEAKER_00: But my thought on it after listening to like this person have a full conversation
• 14:45
  SPEAKER_00: with someone else was that's a you problem.
• 14:49
  SPEAKER_00: Just because you don't understand what being disabled actually is
• 14:53
  SPEAKER_00: and you think it's just a term that means like severely disabled.
• 15:01
  SPEAKER_00: Like.
• 15:02
  SPEAKER_00: Just because you're unwilling to use the word and think about like kids with ADHD is
• 15:10
  SPEAKER_00: a disability or kids with dyslexia who have reading and learning
• 15:17
  SPEAKER_00: and intellectual disability.
• 15:19
  SPEAKER_00: Those are disabilities.
• 15:21
  SPEAKER_00: And just because you don't see them the same or you pity people who Have physical
• 15:28
  SPEAKER_00: and severe disabilities that limit them in ways that you think are pitiable.
• 15:34
  SPEAKER_00: That's a you problem.
• 15:36
  SPEAKER_00: That's not a them problem.
• 15:38
  SPEAKER_00: Those people with disabilities just want to live their life normally and want
• 15:43
  SPEAKER_00: to be part of society like the rest of us do.
• 15:46
  SPEAKER_00: And just because you need to put them on a pedestal doesn't make it my problem.
• 15:51
  SPEAKER_00: And so I'm going to continue to learn.
• 15:53
  SPEAKER_00: I'm going to continue to call things what they are,
• 15:55
  SPEAKER_00: which is,
• 15:56
  SPEAKER_00: When they go to schools that are specifically for kids with disabilities,
• 16:00
  SPEAKER_00: I'm going to call it out as the first place they went to was
• 16:02
  SPEAKER_00: to attack disabled kids.
• 16:05
  SPEAKER_00: Doesn't matter if they're severely disabled or if they're just minutely disabled,
• 16:09
  SPEAKER_00: if you want to think about it like that.
• 16:12
  SPEAKER_00: They're disabled.
• 16:13
  SPEAKER_00: They have a disability.
• 16:15
  SPEAKER_00: And things like this ruling that's that for final judgment
• 16:19
  SPEAKER_00: in this like actual final judgment until it is Appealed and settled on,
• 16:28
  SPEAKER_00: it's now currently law.
• 16:31
  SPEAKER_01: I'm sure Neeta's got her finger on the pulse of this.
• 16:37
  SPEAKER_01: I think actually there was a statement that was released by the AAPD,
• 16:44
  SPEAKER_01: which is the American Association of People with Disabilities.
• 16:47
  SPEAKER_01: So their statement was 13 hours ago.
• 16:50
  SPEAKER_01: And their statement was officially,
• 16:54
  SPEAKER_01: they basically,
• 16:55
  SPEAKER_01: so quote,
• 16:56
  SPEAKER_01: the judge's decision to eliminate these requirements is a rollback of the right
• 16:59
  SPEAKER_01: to community integration,
• 17:02
  SPEAKER_01: but it is not a complete rollback of disability rights, period.
• 17:06
  SPEAKER_01: Every disabled person deserves to receive care in the most integrated settings so
• 17:10
  SPEAKER_01: that they may maintain autonomy,
• 17:12
  SPEAKER_01: agency, and self-direction, said Maria Towne, President and CEO of AAPD.
• 17:18
  SPEAKER_01: Generations of disability activists have fought for the community integration,
• 17:21
  SPEAKER_01: and that fight continues to this day.
• 17:24
  SPEAKER_01: AAPD will remain on the front lines of the movement for community living, she continues.
• 17:30
  SPEAKER_01: Good.
• 17:31
  SPEAKER_01: And you know what?
• 17:32
  SPEAKER_01: She's not wrong, and she's 100 million percent right.
• 17:39
  SPEAKER_00: Good, because it needs to be called out.
• 17:42
  SPEAKER_01: And the final statement was the American Association of People
• 17:45
  SPEAKER_01: with Disabilities strongly opposes the judge's decision to eliminate
• 17:50
  SPEAKER_01: the community integration requirement.
• 17:53
  SPEAKER_01: And literally everybody, this is, and I'm not minimizing it, not in the least.
• 17:59
  SPEAKER_01: When you're just talking about what the ruling was,
• 18:02
  SPEAKER_01: it was basically
• 18:06
  SPEAKER_01: just taking away That it just removed the rule and the provisions
• 18:12
  SPEAKER_01: that make clear that health and social services should support disabled people
• 18:18
  SPEAKER_01: in settings whenever appropriate and losing.
• 18:21
  SPEAKER_01: It's really the loss of clarity is the setback.
• 18:25
  SPEAKER_01: That's what it is.
• 18:26
  SPEAKER_01: So now it's made it more confusing for states.
• 18:28
  SPEAKER_01: It's made it more confusing for communities.
• 18:30
  SPEAKER_01: It's made it more confusing for local municipalities.
• 18:33
  SPEAKER_01: And it's, it's, that's really what this is.
• 18:35
  SPEAKER_01: It's more chaos.
• 18:36
  SPEAKER_01: And that's really what this is.
• 18:38
  SPEAKER_01: It's just more deliberate chaos to hurt people and to throw wrenches into the system
• 18:45
  SPEAKER_00: and make things harder for everybody.
• 18:47
  SPEAKER_01: As if getting up out of bed today and just getting your day started.
• 18:55
  SPEAKER_01: And having to drive to work or taking your kids to school or doing the shopping
• 19:00
  SPEAKER_01: or trying to find, you know, just whatever you need isn't hard enough.
• 19:06
  SPEAKER_01: Oh, and let's not keep in mind that we're heading into the holiday season and
• 19:09
  SPEAKER_01: the kids are going to want the new toys and your wife or your spouse,
• 19:13
  SPEAKER_01: your partner are going to want something nice for the holidays and you're going
• 19:16
  SPEAKER_01: to want to do something nice or go on vacation.
• 19:18
  SPEAKER_01: I literally, Nick,
• 19:19
  SPEAKER_01: I went to go look at flights to go to Vegas because I have a business thing I got
• 19:23
  SPEAKER_01: to take care of out there at a clinic at the North Vegas VA for
• 19:27
  SPEAKER_01: a clinical trial running.
• 19:29
  SPEAKER_01: Yeah, you want to know what the airline,
• 19:31
  SPEAKER_01: the airfare is 3x to what it was three months ago because of the jet fuel issues.
• 19:37
  SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
• 19:38
  SPEAKER_01: I mean, that's unfortunately, thank you.
• 19:44
  SPEAKER_01: Dumbass war that nobody wanted.
• 19:46
  SPEAKER_00: I have two trips I'm supposed to be making here soon, and that shit's expensive.
• 19:52
  SPEAKER_01: I mean, my wife and I are going to Europe for our annual anniversary vacation, October 7th.
• 19:59
  SPEAKER_01: These were tickets I bought a year ago.
• 20:02
  SPEAKER_01: I mean, we had bought all this stuff a year ago before everything went outrageously ridiculous.
• 20:10
  SPEAKER_01: So, I mean, I had pre-planned it and, like, locked everything in.
• 20:15
  SPEAKER_00: But it's wild.
• 20:16
  SPEAKER_01: It'll be interesting while I'm in Spain and Portugal and see and try not
• 20:20
  SPEAKER_01: to advertise the fact that I'm an American citizen.
• 20:24
  SPEAKER_00: Yeah, it's just, it's everything.
• 20:27
  SPEAKER_00: Maybe I'll wear my MAGA hat while I'm
• 20:28
  SPEAKER_00: in Spain and see how that goes.
• 20:30
  SPEAKER_01: I'll get a MAGA hat.
• 20:31
  SPEAKER_00: Try that.
• 20:32
  SPEAKER_01: Try it.
• 20:33
  SPEAKER_00: Tell me how that goes.
• 20:34
  SPEAKER_01: I'm going to get deported in about 10 minutes.
• 20:36
  SPEAKER_01: You can clock in on an egg timer how quickly you deport me.
• 20:39
  SPEAKER_00: Oh, yeah.
• 20:41
  SPEAKER_00: Yeah.
• 20:42
  SPEAKER_00: And who's going to bail out the airlines when all this comes crashing down is us,
• 20:48
  SPEAKER_00: is the normal people who already can't afford things
• 20:52
  SPEAKER_00: because companies don't pay taxes.
• 20:54
  SPEAKER_01: 40 trillion.
• 20:56
  SPEAKER_00: It's only common folk who pay taxes and we're going to bail them out and
• 21:01
  SPEAKER_00: then we're going to be in debt even more as a nation.
• 21:04
  SPEAKER_00: And then we're going to Continue to spend wastefully on systems
• 21:10
  SPEAKER_00: that aren't working instead of putting money into programs that actually do work
• 21:15
  SPEAKER_00: and put things back like investing in equalizing and creating an equitable
• 21:23
  SPEAKER_00: and accessible workplace and education system and medical system
• 21:28
  SPEAKER_00: or creating housing opportunities and education opportunities.
• 21:33
  SPEAKER_00: Like, no, we just want to hurt.
• 21:37
  SPEAKER_01: I actually Yandro had a great quote.
• 21:40
  SPEAKER_01: I can pretend I'm Canadian.
• 21:41
  SPEAKER_01: I can do that being from Michigan and I support and love my Canadian brothers
• 21:45
  SPEAKER_01: and sisters from down south because you literally have to drive south to go
• 21:49
  SPEAKER_01: to Windsor, Ontario.
• 21:50
  SPEAKER_01: So it's but I mean, I'm just I listen, I. Hmm.
• 22:00
  SPEAKER_01: Thank God I speak Spanish.
• 22:02
  SPEAKER_01: I do not speak Portuguese.
• 22:05
  SPEAKER_01: Thankfully, the Portuguese also speak Spanish.
• 22:07
  SPEAKER_01: Because why?
• 22:08
  SPEAKER_01: Gee, maybe because they invested in their fucking educational system and everybody
• 22:11
  SPEAKER_01: in Europe speaks five languages.
• 22:13
  SPEAKER_01: Gee, imagine the world we would be in if the current president,
• 22:18
  SPEAKER_01: instead of doing what he's doing,
• 22:21
  SPEAKER_01: just everybody just kind of go with me on this journey
• 22:23
  SPEAKER_01: into alternate universe three.
• 22:26
  SPEAKER_01: Okay, like we're going to go through a Borg, you know, transwarp conduit here.
• 22:31
  SPEAKER_01: So like we're going to go into an alternate dimension.
• 22:34
  SPEAKER_01: Imagine if How the world would be different with a president who instead
• 22:40
  SPEAKER_01: of spending money on a ballroom and spending money on a Qatari jet to read
• 22:45
  SPEAKER_01: which God knows whatever,
• 22:48
  SPEAKER_01: the wars,
• 22:49
  SPEAKER_01: the stupid shit actually wound up spending
• 22:52
  SPEAKER_01: that money endowing educational institutions,
• 22:55
  SPEAKER_01: endowing the arts,
• 22:57
  SPEAKER_01: funding culture, funding science, believing in the role of public health services,
• 23:06
  SPEAKER_01: Imagine that world.
• 23:10
  SPEAKER_01: So that's what, and by the way, the elections don't start on November 3rd, everybody.
• 23:15
  SPEAKER_01: They end on November 3rd.
• 23:19
  SPEAKER_01: Okay.
• 23:20
  SPEAKER_01: They end on November 3rd.
• 23:21
  SPEAKER_01: So whatever it is you need to do, double check your voter registration.
• 23:26
  SPEAKER_01: This is the battle right now.
• 23:28
  SPEAKER_01: This election, I know we keep saying we've heard it for the last 10 years, right?
• 23:32
  SPEAKER_01: This is the most consequential election in American history.
• 23:36
  SPEAKER_01: I think we're at it.
• 23:37
  SPEAKER_01: This is it.
• 23:39
  SPEAKER_01: This is that final battle that you see in every major sci-fi series at the end of a season.
• 23:45
  SPEAKER_01: This is the final battle.
• 23:48
  SPEAKER_01: We don't come out of this with some level of balance and power back in Washington
• 23:53
  SPEAKER_01: and party's over.
• 23:56
  SPEAKER_00: Yeah.
• 23:58
  SPEAKER_01: That flag behind Nick,
• 24:00
  SPEAKER_01: the oath that we both took years ago,
• 24:03
  SPEAKER_01: The currency we carry,
• 24:05
  SPEAKER_01: the language we speak,
• 24:08
  SPEAKER_01: the pride we have in our Constitution, our rule of law, it's gone.
• 24:12
  SPEAKER_01: Done.
• 24:14
  SPEAKER_01: It's over.
• 24:16
  SPEAKER_01: Because it won't mean anything.
• 24:18
  SPEAKER_01: Our entire identity will have been stolen from us.
• 24:22
  SPEAKER_00: And Election Day also isn't the end.
• 24:28
  SPEAKER_00: It is just another beginning, too.
• 24:30
  SPEAKER_01: Yep.
• 24:32
  SPEAKER_00: We've already... What is Mike Johnson going to do?
• 24:36
  SPEAKER_00: Put the House in recess and just never come back to work?
• 24:41
  SPEAKER_00: And never swear in the new House?
• 24:44
  SPEAKER_00: They're going to try something.
• 24:46
  SPEAKER_01: Well, at that point,
• 24:48
  SPEAKER_01: on January 3rd of 2027,
• 24:50
  SPEAKER_01: the newly elected Speaker of the House,
• 24:55
  SPEAKER_01: whomever that may be,
• 24:57
  SPEAKER_01: and the U.S.
• 24:58
  SPEAKER_01: Congress should sue Effectively the president of the United States as
• 25:04
  SPEAKER_01: a legislative body and as a part of the government should file a massive lawsuit
• 25:12
  SPEAKER_01: against the president of the United States and his family personally and go
• 25:17
  SPEAKER_01: after all the fucking money they stole.
• 25:19
  SPEAKER_01: This was this is not my idea.
• 25:21
  SPEAKER_01: This was actually Miles Taylor's idea.
• 25:25
  SPEAKER_01: Because they are the only institution that can sue another institution.
• 25:30
  SPEAKER_00: Well, they need to do.
• 25:32
  SPEAKER_00: The same for the Supreme Court.
• 25:34
  SPEAKER_00: Yeah, absolutely.
• 25:36
  SPEAKER_00: We need more.
• 25:37
  SPEAKER_00: The problem is we need more direct action than just filing suit.
• 25:44
  SPEAKER_01: Well, what it does is it opens up discovery.
• 25:45
  SPEAKER_01: That's what Courtney's asking.
• 25:47
  SPEAKER_01: It opens up discovery.
• 25:48
  SPEAKER_01: If the U.S.
• 25:48
  SPEAKER_01: Congress sues the executive branch,
• 25:53
  SPEAKER_01: in particular, sues the president, it opens up all of the documents, everything.
• 25:58
  SPEAKER_01: Well, everything gets turned over.
• 26:00
  SPEAKER_00: Balanced.
• 26:01
  SPEAKER_00: Balanced on the new knife's edge that the Supreme Court gifted Trump with immunity.
• 26:11
  SPEAKER_00: Correct.
• 26:11
  SPEAKER_00: And that's the hardest thing to
• 26:15
  SPEAKER_00: get around
• 26:17
  SPEAKER_00: right now because
• 26:21
  SPEAKER_00: the Supreme Court effectively nullified the importance of impeachment
• 26:27
  SPEAKER_00: unless you actually get to the removal part because they said
• 26:32
  SPEAKER_00: the president is immune to even having his documents or things investigated
• 26:38
  SPEAKER_00: unless there's like a really justifiable cause and so that's
• 26:45
  SPEAKER_01: they've set it up
• 26:46
  SPEAKER_01: so he can do whatever
• 26:47
  SPEAKER_00: the fuck he wants until he's out of power and somebody else is
• 26:52
  SPEAKER_00: in power and if that person had and if that Executive
• 26:57
  SPEAKER_00: and congressional branches have the political will to actually overturn
• 27:03
  SPEAKER_00: a Supreme Court ruling,
• 27:06
  SPEAKER_00: one by impeaching and removing the corrupt Supreme Court justices,
• 27:11
  SPEAKER_00: and then overturning the Supreme Court ruling to remove presidential immunity
• 27:17
  SPEAKER_00: in any
• 27:18
  SPEAKER_01: form.
• 27:19
  SPEAKER_00: Same with congressional immunity outside of the speech and debate clause,
• 27:22
  SPEAKER_00: which should be narrowed a little bit because they shouldn't be allowed
• 27:27
  SPEAKER_00: to just go out and lie in their official status as a representative of the U.S.
• 27:36
  SPEAKER_00: or an elected official of the U.S.
• 27:38
  SPEAKER_00: You shouldn't be able to just blatantly lie to the populace.
• 27:43
  SPEAKER_01: So the way this would work,
• 27:44
  SPEAKER_01: just like any other lawsuit,
• 27:45
  SPEAKER_01: so the U.S.
• 27:46
  SPEAKER_01: Congress or a branch or a specific chamber of the Congress,
• 27:51
  SPEAKER_01: whether it's the House or the Senate,
• 27:52
  SPEAKER_01: would pass a formal resolution to authorize the lawsuit, retain legal counsel.
• 27:57
  SPEAKER_01: They would then file the complaint in U.S. District Court.
• 27:59
  SPEAKER_01: They would name a specific executive branch agencies or subordinate officials rather
• 28:03
  SPEAKER_01: than the president directly to navigate the legal hurdles.
• 28:06
  SPEAKER_01: So like maybe they go after like Hagseth or they go after RFK Jr. or whatever.
• 28:12
  SPEAKER_01: And then under Article 3 of the Constitution,
• 28:15
  SPEAKER_01: Congress has to prove that it suffered a concrete injury, a tort,
• 28:19
  SPEAKER_01: as we speak,
• 28:20
  SPEAKER_01: such as institutional nullification of a legislative vote or a direct violation
• 28:25
  SPEAKER_01: of its constitutional powers.
• 28:27
  SPEAKER_01: You know,
• 28:27
  SPEAKER_01: kind of like,
• 28:29
  SPEAKER_01: I don't know,
• 28:31
  SPEAKER_01: going to war, okay, or passing tariffs or violating the First Amendment.
• 28:40
  SPEAKER_01: Of members of Congress or threatening members of Congress with deportation.
• 28:45
  SPEAKER_01: OK, just whatever it is.
• 28:46
  SPEAKER_01: Right.
• 28:47
  SPEAKER_01: So then typically,
• 28:48
  SPEAKER_01: of course,
• 28:48
  SPEAKER_01: the first thing that's going to happen is the attorney general,
• 28:50
  SPEAKER_01: the deputy attorney general will file a motion to dismiss,
• 28:53
  SPEAKER_01: arguing that the court will then lack jurisdiction.
• 28:57
  SPEAKER_01: Or that Congress lacks the legal standing to sue.
• 29:00
  SPEAKER_01: And then if the case survives that.
• 29:03
  SPEAKER_01: And that all goes about how the wheel goes in federal district court in DC,
• 29:06
  SPEAKER_01: which is basically all non Trump elect Trump appointed judges at
• 29:11
  SPEAKER_01: the district court level.
• 29:14
  SPEAKER_01: So then it's going to probably survive to discovery.
• 29:18
  SPEAKER_01: And then the district court will issue a ruling,
• 29:20
  SPEAKER_01: which thing can go under a TRO and injunction final judgment, whatever.
• 29:24
  SPEAKER_01: And then obviously they go through the appellate process.
• 29:27
  SPEAKER_01: So ultimately this may hit the U S Supreme court.
• 29:31
  SPEAKER_01: But it might take till the end of Trump's term and tie up the DOJ and tie up
• 29:36
  SPEAKER_01: the executive branch.
• 29:38
  SPEAKER_01: I think the Democrats have to do what Trump's been doing and tie up
• 29:42
  SPEAKER_01: the executive branch with so much bullshit that you just tie up
• 29:47
  SPEAKER_01: the entire executive branch with nuisance chaos.
• 29:50
  SPEAKER_01: Throw the chaos book back at them.
• 29:52
  SPEAKER_01: Make them the servant of chaos.
• 29:57
  SPEAKER_00: Yes, I don't disagree.
• 30:00
  SPEAKER_00: Fight fire
• 30:00
  SPEAKER_01: with fire.
• 30:02
  SPEAKER_01: Yes.
• 30:05
  SPEAKER_00: And like the...
• 30:06
  SPEAKER_00: Sorry, I had a piece of butter moment there.
• 30:10
  SPEAKER_00: You're good, brother.
• 30:13
  SPEAKER_00: We have to fight fire with fire.
• 30:15
  SPEAKER_00: And to answer the question in the chat is,
• 30:18
  SPEAKER_00: do we think those opposed to this administration have a plan and a backup plan
• 30:24
  SPEAKER_00: For all the ways that we will try to not give up power.
• 30:28
  SPEAKER_01: Oh yeah.
• 30:28
  SPEAKER_00: Yes.
• 30:29
  SPEAKER_01: Of course we do.
• 30:30
  SPEAKER_00: The problem, here's the problem.
• 30:33
  SPEAKER_00: So we know that there are plans written up to prevent these types of transitions of power.
• 30:42
  SPEAKER_00: Or prevent these types of nullification efforts and threat and theft efforts.
• 30:50
  SPEAKER_01: We already know one of them, they tried it last time.
• 30:53
  SPEAKER_00: They tried it last time.
• 30:54
  SPEAKER_00: It was an insurrection.
• 30:54
  SPEAKER_01: De-certify the votes.
• 30:55
  SPEAKER_01: Right.
• 30:56
  SPEAKER_01: That didn't go so well.
• 30:57
  SPEAKER_00: Yeah.
• 30:58
  SPEAKER_00: They tried to decertify the votes.
• 30:59
  SPEAKER_00: That didn't work.
• 31:00
  SPEAKER_00: So they did an insurrection.
• 31:02
  SPEAKER_00: That didn't work either.
• 31:04
  SPEAKER_00: That didn't work either.
• 31:05
  SPEAKER_00: But then we didn't do the thing that happened that needed to happen.
• 31:10
  SPEAKER_00: And that's part of the playbook that actually needs to go through this time in gender.
• 31:17
  SPEAKER_00: Yeah.
• 31:17
  SPEAKER_00: I get your hesitation on it.
• 31:21
  SPEAKER_00: I think the people are ready to demand it.
• 31:27
  SPEAKER_01: We're getting the pitchfork time here.
• 31:30
  SPEAKER_00: Yeah, and people are pissed.
• 31:33
  SPEAKER_00: Everything is expensive.
• 31:35
  SPEAKER_00: Everything is hard to access.
• 31:37
  SPEAKER_00: Our children are getting hurt.
• 31:46
  SPEAKER_00: And we're being harmed.
• 31:49
  SPEAKER_00: There are children dying in
• 31:51
  SPEAKER_01: Lancaster County,
• 31:52
  SPEAKER_01: Pennsylvania because of the fucking vaccine issues.
• 31:55
  SPEAKER_01: That shit should never happen.
• 31:57
  SPEAKER_01: I'm sorry.
• 31:57
  SPEAKER_00: We've got cases of measles.
• 31:59
  SPEAKER_00: We're willing to bring polio back so that we can have anti-vax freedom policy.
• 32:08
  SPEAKER_01: Oh, but they have a friend in the White House.
• 32:11
  SPEAKER_00: Yeah, so we're actively harming polio.
• 32:16
  SPEAKER_00: I'm not against people who cannot get vaccines.
• 32:20
  SPEAKER_00: If you have a reason you can't get a vaccine,
• 32:23
  SPEAKER_00: like a legitimate medical reason why you can't have vaccines, that's understandable.
• 32:28
  SPEAKER_00: That's why the rest of us get the vaccine so that there's a herd immunity so
• 32:33
  SPEAKER_00: that you don't get sick.
• 32:36
  SPEAKER_01: That's what 95% means.
• 32:38
  SPEAKER_01: We allow for 5% variability in the population to not be vaccinated.
• 32:44
  SPEAKER_00: Yeah.
• 32:45
  SPEAKER_00: Like, it's not rocket science.
• 32:47
  SPEAKER_00: It's not rocket surgery or rocket science.
• 32:50
  SPEAKER_00: It's not even ankle surgery.
• 32:51
  SPEAKER_01: Like, hey, hey, hey, hey,
• 32:52
  SPEAKER_01: hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey,
• 32:57
  SPEAKER_01: hey, hey,
• 32:57
  SPEAKER_00: hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey,
• 33:00
  SPEAKER_00: hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey,
• 33:03
  SPEAKER_00: hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey,
• 33:09
  SPEAKER_00: hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey,
• 33:13
  SPEAKER_00: From all directions,
• 33:14
  SPEAKER_00: putting chaos in,
• 33:15
  SPEAKER_00: we do need to put chaos back into the wheels in the other direction.
• 33:20
  SPEAKER_00: And I think people are ready for it.
• 33:23
  SPEAKER_00: I don't know if everybody really unders,
• 33:26
  SPEAKER_00: and that's the problem with having an election two months away or less
• 33:29
  SPEAKER_00: than two months away,
• 33:30
  SPEAKER_00: a month and a half, just over a month, like just under a month and a half.
• 33:34
  SPEAKER_01: People are waking up though.
• 33:35
  SPEAKER_01: People are starting to tune in.
• 33:36
  SPEAKER_01: They're starting to pay attention now.
• 33:37
  SPEAKER_01: They're starting to get it.
• 33:39
  SPEAKER_01: The fact that the TV without seeing 20 million ads.
• 33:43
  SPEAKER_00: Yeah, the problem is none of those ads tell any of the truth.
• 33:47
  SPEAKER_01: No, they're not supposed to.
• 33:49
  SPEAKER_00: And so people aren't actually informed in a lot of these areas.
• 33:53
  SPEAKER_00: They're just seeing where they're being hit.
• 33:56
  SPEAKER_00: And it's that age-old question that we see our friends like Fred Wellman do running
• 34:04
  SPEAKER_00: in Missouri, as he asks, and others ask is like,
• 34:10
  SPEAKER_00: Missouri's red right now has been in charge for a while, red.
• 34:14
  SPEAKER_00: Texas has been 30 years red.
• 34:17
  SPEAKER_00: Florida's been like 30 years red.
• 34:21
  SPEAKER_01: Arkansas has been red for how long?
• 34:24
  SPEAKER_00: Since going that red direction, like numbers plummeted for health, for education, for benefits.
• 34:33
  SPEAKER_00: Texas was sixth in the country in education.
• 34:37
  SPEAKER_01: They were sixth in the country in education, Texas was.
• 34:39
  SPEAKER_01: Now they're like 43rd.
• 34:40
  SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
• 34:41
  SPEAKER_00: And congratulations, Texas.
• 34:44
  SPEAKER_00: Way to go.
• 34:45
  SPEAKER_00: And we're just talking on some of this stuff on like the front end side.
• 34:52
  SPEAKER_00: We haven't even talked about the election day threats that are going to happen.
• 34:59
  SPEAKER_00: Everybody vote early.
• 35:00
  SPEAKER_00: If you can't vote early.
• 35:03
  SPEAKER_00: We saw in the previous election.
• 35:06
  SPEAKER_00: That people are willing to burn mail-in voting boxes and that people are going
• 35:16
  SPEAKER_00: to call in bomb threats based out of Russia into election and polling locations.
• 35:26
  SPEAKER_00: And the amount of misinformation and purposeful disinformation being Sprayed onto
• 35:34
  SPEAKER_00: the people of America is what we call eagle jizz and is just a horrible amount
• 35:43
  SPEAKER_00: of propaganda.
• 35:44
  SPEAKER_00: We're in a psyop
• 35:48
  SPEAKER_00: to confuse people and keep people down and keep people thinking
• 35:55
  SPEAKER_00: that winning breadcrumbs instead of getting the whole loaf is good.
• 36:04
  SPEAKER_00: The fact that you won maybe half a slice of bread from the social handout station
• 36:12
  SPEAKER_00: that these corporations provide for us doesn't really exist.
• 36:18
  SPEAKER_00: So you win a crumb.
• 36:18
  SPEAKER_00: Great.
• 36:24
  SPEAKER_01: Jai was asking about a shuffling card, so yeah, because I can't afford video poker anymore.
• 36:29
  SPEAKER_01: So I have to do with the old-fashioned,
• 36:31
  SPEAKER_00: not kidding.
• 36:32
  SPEAKER_00: Yes, and the massive industrial complex that we have spent trillions of dollars
• 36:37
  SPEAKER_00: and 20-plus years
• 36:45
  SPEAKER_00: Investing in for the intelligence industrial complex and
• 36:51
  SPEAKER_00: the surveillance industrial complex has not made us safer and has not prevented us
• 36:57
  SPEAKER_00: from being propagandized from our own and by our own government or
• 37:03
  SPEAKER_00: from outside governments.
• 37:04
  SPEAKER_00: In fact, we made it easier to do all of that.
• 37:08
  SPEAKER_00: And so now we're stripping rights away again.
• 37:14
  SPEAKER_00: We're coming back to it.
• 37:16
  SPEAKER_00: We're stripping rights away again.
• 37:18
  SPEAKER_00: However, we finally got past discrimination.
• 37:23
  SPEAKER_00: We literally finished all the major categories for non-discrimination.
• 37:29
  SPEAKER_00: And now we're moving back to discrimination at a federal level.
• 37:34
  SPEAKER_00: They are not going to...
• 37:36
  SPEAKER_00: Pursue cases against discriminatory hacks that fall under Section 504 for
• 37:41
  SPEAKER_00: the integration mandate.
• 37:42
  SPEAKER_00: They're not going to support plaintiffs in their actions if they get discriminated against.
• 37:48
  SPEAKER_00: And this is for any group.
• 37:50
  SPEAKER_00: Going back to the Texas v.
• 37:52
  SPEAKER_00: Kennedy stuff,
• 37:53
  SPEAKER_00: looping ourselves back into our original stuff is this is gene pool management.
• 37:58
  SPEAKER_00: That is part of what this is.
• 38:00
  SPEAKER_01: Well, here we can say eugenics, though.
• 38:02
  SPEAKER_01: We can say eugenics here.
• 38:03
  SPEAKER_00: Yeah, it's eugenics,
• 38:05
  SPEAKER_00: but it's gene pool management and it's eugenics and it is pruning people
• 38:11
  SPEAKER_00: with disabilities out of the population and visibility of the community
• 38:19
  SPEAKER_00: and workforce and schools and hospitals and just there you go.
• 38:27
  SPEAKER_00: We're going to move them, put them into warehouses again.
• 38:29
  SPEAKER_00: That's the slippery slope on this is very quick.
• 38:33
  SPEAKER_00: With a group that has shown that it does not give a shit about the rights,
• 38:39
  SPEAKER_00: freedoms, humanity, or
• 38:42
  SPEAKER_01: anything of people that they deem lesser than them.
• 38:45
  SPEAKER_00: Because if they did, they wouldn't be doing the shit that they're doing right now.
• 38:50
  SPEAKER_01: So what we're talking about overall is it's what I called in my article I wrote on Sunday, Nick.
• 38:58
  SPEAKER_01: I wrote that it's a high demand environment.
• 39:02
  SPEAKER_01: It's the corruption, the lies, the rulings, the demolition of the agencies.
• 39:10
  SPEAKER_01: It's those things that are meant to protect society.
• 39:14
  SPEAKER_01: It's turning lethal.
• 39:18
  SPEAKER_01: And why it turns lethal is because we all believe and they want to make us believe
• 39:21
  SPEAKER_01: that we have no control over it.
• 39:24
  SPEAKER_01: But let me tell everybody out there, you do have control.
• 39:29
  SPEAKER_01: Yes.
• 39:29
  SPEAKER_01: This country comes up in November.
• 39:32
  SPEAKER_01: Right.
• 39:32
  SPEAKER_01: In this country, you have control.
• 39:35
  SPEAKER_01: You have the power.
• 39:36
  SPEAKER_01: The voter holds the final authority to every senator who voted on a budget,
• 39:43
  SPEAKER_01: every congressman who bootlicked and greenlighted the president's bullshit stuff
• 39:47
  SPEAKER_01: that he was doing about the Medicaid provisions and the cuts.
• 39:52
  SPEAKER_01: Every official who confirmed a judge or a cabinet secretary answers to a ballot.
• 39:59
  SPEAKER_01: The people who stood by during every item during this term are on the ballot.
• 40:08
  SPEAKER_01: They're on your ballot or put there by somebody who, you know, who, who is.
• 40:16
  SPEAKER_01: So here's the turn.
• 40:20
  SPEAKER_01: Here's where I want everybody to do.
• 40:21
  SPEAKER_01: This is your action item.
• 40:22
  SPEAKER_01: Okay.
• 40:22
  SPEAKER_01: Beyond all the other actions that Nick always tells you to do, but this is mine.
• 40:25
  SPEAKER_01: Okay.
• 40:29
  SPEAKER_01: Now I'm going to give everybody the clearance.
• 40:31
  SPEAKER_01: You're the physician.
• 40:33
  SPEAKER_01: You are your own doctor for this, okay?
• 40:38
  SPEAKER_01: You've taken the history.
• 40:40
  SPEAKER_01: You've seen the labs.
• 40:42
  SPEAKER_01: You know it's making the patient sick, okay?
• 40:47
  SPEAKER_01: And so by November 3rd, you write the prescription that works for you.
• 40:52
  SPEAKER_01: And this is what it should read like.
• 40:54
  SPEAKER_01: You verify your registration and then verify it again.
• 40:59
  SPEAKER_01: You vote the entire ballot.
• 41:01
  SPEAKER_01: You don't leave anything to chance.
• 41:02
  SPEAKER_01: You fill out every freaking circle.
• 41:04
  SPEAKER_01: You click every box on the screen, whatever it is.
• 41:08
  SPEAKER_01: You vote the whole ballot.
• 41:11
  SPEAKER_01: If you're not sure on the sample ballot, research it.
• 41:15
  SPEAKER_01: Look up the judges.
• 41:16
  SPEAKER_01: Look at their ruling history.
• 41:19
  SPEAKER_01: If you're not sure about the school board members, look them up.
• 41:23
  SPEAKER_01: Even the water table board or the parks and rec people, the whole ballot.
• 41:32
  SPEAKER_01: Because the reality is that the House,
• 41:33
  SPEAKER_01: the Senate,
• 41:34
  SPEAKER_01: the Governor,
• 41:34
  SPEAKER_01: your Attorney General are all decide how all these cuts are going to land next year.
• 41:41
  SPEAKER_01: Right now.
• 41:44
  SPEAKER_01: And then bring somebody with you, loved one, neighbor, a friend, bring your kids.
• 41:52
  SPEAKER_01: Okay, because the more that it's a stress buffer, right?
• 41:56
  SPEAKER_01: When you bring somebody with you,
• 41:57
  SPEAKER_01: you've got somebody to kind of like Chuckle over, discuss it with.
• 42:00
  SPEAKER_01: It's a stress buffer.
• 42:02
  SPEAKER_01: So it's really important when you do this.
• 42:06
  SPEAKER_01: And then stay engaged afterward.
• 42:10
  SPEAKER_01: Just, you know,
• 42:13
  SPEAKER_01: the more that we are engaged afterward,
• 42:14
  SPEAKER_01: just because you voted doesn't mean you get to let loose and forget everything
• 42:18
  SPEAKER_01: that happened.
• 42:18
  SPEAKER_01: Oh, I did my part.
• 42:19
  SPEAKER_01: I voted.
• 42:19
  SPEAKER_01: If that's enough for you, fine.
• 42:21
  SPEAKER_01: But for people like Nick,
• 42:23
  SPEAKER_01: for people like me,
• 42:24
  SPEAKER_01: for people like Nietta,
• 42:25
  SPEAKER_01: for people like everybody who we all follow on Substack,
• 42:28
  SPEAKER_01: You know,
• 42:29
  SPEAKER_01: the Dean Blendels,
• 42:30
  SPEAKER_01: the Zev Shalevs,
• 42:32
  SPEAKER_01: you know,
• 42:32
  SPEAKER_01: the Ashley O'Lorens,
• 42:34
  SPEAKER_01: you know,
• 42:35
  SPEAKER_01: the big money people,
• 42:36
  SPEAKER_01: the Midas Touch people, whatever, the Banner and Backbone people.
• 42:40
  SPEAKER_01: Okay.
• 42:41
  SPEAKER_01: There's your plug, Nick.
• 42:43
  SPEAKER_01: Okay.
• 42:44
  SPEAKER_01: Everybody that we follow, me included.
• 42:46
  SPEAKER_01: Okay.
• 42:48
  SPEAKER_01: We have to keep watching.
• 42:52
  SPEAKER_01: Because when they know we're watching, they act differently.
• 42:56
  SPEAKER_01: If you notice it now, the Republicans know we're watching, so what do you see them doing now?
• 43:00
  SPEAKER_01: Running away from Trump.
• 43:02
  SPEAKER_01: Oh, I'm not in favor of AI data centers.
• 43:05
  SPEAKER_01: I think the hell you are.
• 43:09
  SPEAKER_00: Like, bullshit.
• 43:11
  SPEAKER_00: Yeah, you've shown it before.
• 43:13
  SPEAKER_00: You've proved it.
• 43:14
  SPEAKER_01: Byron Donalds,
• 43:15
  SPEAKER_01: and if you're watching Mr.
• 43:16
  SPEAKER_01: Donalds,
• 43:17
  SPEAKER_01: you can't delete your website away from winning the governorship in Florida.
• 43:22
  SPEAKER_01: You can't delete Trump out of your life that you've been bootlicking for the last 10 years.
• 43:26
  SPEAKER_01: You don't get to delete all the Trump shit off your website and think that people
• 43:30
  SPEAKER_01: in Florida haven't forgotten what you've been and what you've been about.
• 43:36
  SPEAKER_01: You can't delete your way out of this.
• 43:38
  SPEAKER_01: Same thing with Maria Salazar.
• 43:40
  SPEAKER_01: You can't delete your way out of the fact that you were supportive
• 43:43
  SPEAKER_01: of Alligator Alcatraz down in Florida 25.
• 43:46
  SPEAKER_01: So if Nicole Laughlin's watching, kick her ass.
• 43:50
  SPEAKER_01: Okay?
• 43:53
  SPEAKER_01: So that's the point.
• 43:57
  SPEAKER_01: Be active.
• 43:58
  SPEAKER_01: And listen, one ballot's not going to lower everybody's blood pressure.
• 44:01
  SPEAKER_01: I know that, okay?
• 44:05
  SPEAKER_01: Because mine's up right now.
• 44:07
  SPEAKER_01: Especially Wednesday morning because the election's not going to be finished
• 44:10
  SPEAKER_01: by Wednesday morning.
• 44:12
  SPEAKER_01: But the shift is going to be in everybody's minds from what's being done to me
• 44:20
  SPEAKER_01: to I'm now part of deciding how I want it done.
• 44:25
  SPEAKER_01: And that's an empowerment shift.
• 44:27
  SPEAKER_01: And that is your prescription.
• 44:32
  SPEAKER_00: I like it.
• 44:33
  SPEAKER_00: Well put.
• 44:34
  SPEAKER_00: Well put, Eric.
• 44:36
  SPEAKER_00: I think with that.
• 44:38
  SPEAKER_00: No more passive.
• 44:39
  SPEAKER_00: No more passive.
• 44:42
  SPEAKER_00: Is promote ourselves.
• 44:44
  SPEAKER_00: And I'm going to find your QR code somewhere.
• 44:47
  SPEAKER_00: It should be over here.
