Transcript
- 0:00Speaker 1: All right, guys, here we are our last break of
- 0:02Speaker 1: the day, and as we always do, we want to
- 0:04Speaker 1: thank our audience for being so loyal and loving to us.
- 0:07Speaker 1: We appreciate you so much. Thank you, thank you, thank you, Steve,
- 0:12Speaker 1: thank you.
- 0:12Speaker 2: Okay, you know in my close remarks, I'm gonna do
- 0:16Speaker 2: something I said I would never do before. I said
- 0:19Speaker 2: I was tired. I wasn't gonna put myself in this
- 0:22Speaker 2: position again. The last time we needed to vote, we
- 0:25Speaker 2: spent hours on this show, all of us imploring people
- 0:31Speaker 2: to vote, trying to get you the register, and some
- 0:36Speaker 2: did and some didn't. So look, this is for the
- 0:41Speaker 2: didn't folks, and this is for the dead folks who
- 0:45Speaker 2: don't like the results. What that means is we have
- 0:49Speaker 2: to do it more. And we can't allow the people
- 0:52Speaker 2: who are close to us that we know set up
- 0:56Speaker 2: and give you some ignorant cockaman the story about why
- 1:01Speaker 2: they not gonna vote. I don't want to hear that.
- 1:05Speaker 2: We are facing a desperate crisis in this country. If
- 1:10Speaker 2: you are a person of color, are they have come
- 1:15Speaker 2: after us and it's blatant and it's open. But if
- 1:19Speaker 2: you are a person who is not rich, black, white, yellow, brown,
- 1:23Speaker 2: they coming for you too, and for you not to
- 1:27Speaker 2: see it because you've been just tricked with the whole
- 1:30Speaker 2: image of what the conservatives are saying. We are against
- 1:34Speaker 2: gay marriage, we are against immigration, we are against welfare,
- 1:41Speaker 2: we are against rights for human beings. That denies us
- 1:47Speaker 2: the right to compete effectively and equally. Man, That ain't
- 1:52Speaker 2: what the Voter's Rights Act was about. That ain't what
- 1:55Speaker 2: Civil Rights Act was about. It wasn't that whites were
- 1:58Speaker 2: not getting treated equally. It's that that whites had done
- 2:01Speaker 2: so much thing to allow to have black folks not
- 2:04Speaker 2: to be treated equally, that a law was passed to
- 2:07Speaker 2: stop that. But y'all took it as y'all don't want
- 2:10Speaker 2: us to have this or that. Well, that's not true.
- 2:14Speaker 2: You have everything. What is the problem with a person
- 2:18Speaker 2: wanting and requiring common decency and basic rights as an American,
- 2:25Speaker 2: the right to vote. Why would you sit up there
- 2:29Speaker 2: and denounce that. Why would you sit up here here
- 2:32Speaker 2: and resind the Voter's Rights Act? Why would you turn
- 2:35Speaker 2: around and do all this redistricting so black people in
- 2:38Speaker 2: your state don't have a voice anymore. They put you
- 2:42Speaker 2: under the same district, So now you fall out you
- 2:44Speaker 2: don't have black representation. You got to get the same
- 2:47Speaker 2: white dude we got who speaks for us, who don't
- 2:51Speaker 2: really speak for us at all. He speaks for them,
- 2:53Speaker 2: but he tells y'all it's us and you so stupid
- 2:59Speaker 2: to sit up in here and think that they talking
- 3:03Speaker 2: about you. Let me give you an example. The Conservatives
- 3:07Speaker 2: just told you that when we passed this big, beautiful bill,
- 3:10Speaker 2: it'll be the largest tax cuts in the history for you.
- 3:14Speaker 2: True statement. But the you they was talking about wasn't you, though.
- 3:19Speaker 2: The you that was talking about was his three friends
- 3:21Speaker 2: that were sitting on the front row at the inauguration.
- 3:24Speaker 2: It was for Jeff Bezos, for Mark Zuckerberg, and for
- 3:26Speaker 2: Elon Musk. That's who gets the largest tax breaks. Just
- 3:31Speaker 2: tell me how you feel about the tax breaks you've
- 3:34Speaker 2: been getting this year. We want to repeal and replace.
- 3:38Speaker 2: We want to repeal and replace Obamacare. Why it was working.
- 3:43Speaker 2: It had a couple of flaws in it, but it
- 3:44Speaker 2: was working for the average American. Now, guess what, all
- 3:48Speaker 2: y'all's insurance premiums are higher now, all of them, because
- 3:52Speaker 2: you know what they wanted to do. They want to
- 3:54Speaker 2: put the power back into the insurance people's hands so
- 3:57Speaker 2: they could get back to making the big windfall of
- 4:00Speaker 2: money profits that they was making before the Affordable Act
- 4:02Speaker 2: came along, because you had no choice but to deal
- 4:05Speaker 2: with them. But y'all don't see that though, because you
- 4:08Speaker 2: keep thinking that they that you, they talking about we're
- 4:11Speaker 2: gonna give you the biggest tax. Because you keep thinking
- 4:13Speaker 2: they talking about you. They ain't talking about you. They
- 4:16Speaker 2: talking about each other. But they got you looped in
- 4:19Speaker 2: thinking that all we're gonna kill these gay rights, and
- 4:22Speaker 2: we're gonna kill immigration, and we're gonna kill welfare. Well
- 4:27Speaker 2: here's the news news flash. Conservatives and Republicans are gay. Also,
- 4:33Speaker 2: Republicans and conservatives also hire illegal immigrants to do work
- 4:38Speaker 2: for them. Oh excuse me, More white conservatives are on
- 4:42Speaker 2: welfare than is anybody. Did I mention that they was
- 4:45Speaker 2: also gay too? Did I mention that this bill to
- 4:49Speaker 2: stop this immigration, these flux of people has cost us
- 4:53Speaker 2: the money at the grocery stores when crops ain't getting picked,
- 4:57Speaker 2: and fruits and all these orchards ain't getting picked, and
- 5:00Speaker 2: this stuff is dying on the vine and it ain't
- 5:02Speaker 2: got nobody to pick it. Well, the ones that they
- 5:04Speaker 2: do get picked. They still gonna make their money. Because
- 5:07Speaker 2: let me tell you something about rich people. Rich people
- 5:09Speaker 2: don't do cutbacks. The cutback rich people do is your job. See,
- 5:15Speaker 2: they do cutbacks and get rid of your job to
- 5:17Speaker 2: protect their bottom line. Rich people ain't know where talking about. Man,
- 5:20Speaker 2: let me see how I can cut back so these
- 5:22Speaker 2: people can hold on to their position. No, the way
- 5:24Speaker 2: they fix their bottom line is they get rid of you.
- 5:28Speaker 2: They call it DEI Diversity in equity and inclusion. You
- 5:33Speaker 2: thought that was black people, that's what you thought diversity was.
- 5:36Speaker 2: Or you didn't know it was y'all. Huh, you ain't
- 5:38Speaker 2: know that. You ain't know that was you that you women,
- 5:42Speaker 2: you vets with disabilities and all of that. That's what
- 5:45Speaker 2: you didn't know that, did you. You didn't think when
- 5:49Speaker 2: Elon Musk came in here to help get the budget
- 5:52Speaker 2: under control, you didn't think that he would take your job?
- 5:56Speaker 3: Did he? All the jobs is gone? Man.
- 6:00Speaker 2: We got to vote, y'all. We got to register and vote,
- 6:03Speaker 2: and we got to be more serious than this time
- 6:05Speaker 2: than we was when we.
- 6:06Speaker 3: Got Obama in. We got to get real serious. You
- 6:09Speaker 3: feel me?
- 6:10Speaker 2: And now I'm back on it. I said, I wasn't
- 6:12Speaker 2: gonna do it no more. But I can't help it
- 6:13Speaker 2: cause we don't get this straighten out.
- 6:15Speaker 3: Man. We're in a world of trouble. Y'all. Have a
- 6:17Speaker 3: great day today. Talk to God. He'd absolutely love to
- 6:20Speaker 3: hear from him.
