  Speaker 2: for you. We got a light in the mood, and
• 0:11
  Speaker 2: then I'm gonna play for you some insanity.
• 0:14
  Speaker 1: The first.
• 0:16
  Speaker 2: The first, of course, because how can one go a
• 0:20
  Speaker 2: week without hearing from the one and only, the very
• 0:26
  Speaker 2: very special Kamala Harris. I'm gonna get hate mail. And
• 0:36
  Speaker 2: that's just from Micaeh Beck with.
• 0:38
  Speaker 1: Kamala Harris.
• 0:41
  Speaker 2: Making the most surreal claim we have heard.
• 0:45
  Speaker 1: In a while. I don't think there's any cursing in this.
• 0:48
  Speaker 2: Producer Kurt, producer Kurt, who's in for producer Kylon, who's
• 0:51
  Speaker 2: in for producer Carl, who's on assignment.
• 0:54
  Speaker 1: Finger on the dumb button them. She's doing an interview.
• 0:57
  Speaker 2: She's trying to sell her book, and she wants you
• 1:02
  Speaker 2: to know that is decent.
• 1:04
  Speaker 1: But that is a decent resume. But go ahead there.
• 1:08
  Speaker 2: Well, some people have actually said I was the most
• 1:11
  Speaker 2: qualified candidate ever to run for president.
• 1:17
  Speaker 1: She said that.
• 1:19
  Speaker 2: This was a conversation about running for president, about how
• 1:23
  Speaker 2: she got she was the closest election and was asked
• 1:28
  Speaker 2: about you know whether the the only having one hundred
• 1:33
  Speaker 2: and seven days, did that affect your ability to connect
• 1:37
  Speaker 2: with voters? And she says, well, I've always been a woman,
• 1:44
  Speaker 2: I swear to you, she said this, and a woman
• 1:47
  Speaker 2: of color, so that kind of is But it's the time.
• 1:51
  Speaker 2: I think that's one of the biggest things. And then said,
• 1:58
  Speaker 2: what you just heard.
• 2:00
  Speaker 1: And decent, but it is a decent resume, But go
• 2:02
  Speaker 1: ahead there.
• 2:05
  Speaker 2: Well, some people have actually said I was the most
• 2:08
  Speaker 2: qualified candidate ever to run for president. No one ever
• 2:13
  Speaker 2: said that. No one ever said she was qualified. No
• 2:18
  Speaker 2: one has ever said it. So that's the insane. Now
• 2:22
  Speaker 2: I want to share with you something that's going to
• 2:26
  Speaker 2: take your breath away. We if you're with us on
• 2:31
  Speaker 2: Tony Kats today. Yesterday we actually listened to the Supreme
• 2:34
  Speaker 2: Court hearing regarding Louisiana and the idea of creating congressional
• 2:39
  Speaker 2: districts based on race.
• 2:42
  Speaker 1: Louisiana wants to do this.
• 2:45
  Speaker 2: So this is about redistricting and whether you can create
• 2:47
  Speaker 2: a district that has mostly black citizens and somehow that's
• 2:52
  Speaker 2: all right, very weird.
• 2:58
  Speaker 1: It was Katanji Brown.
• 3:01
  Speaker 2: Who tried to make the claim that people who are
• 3:05
  Speaker 2: black are unable to get to the polls and unable
• 3:10
  Speaker 2: to be represented.
• 3:11
  Speaker 1: And I share with you what a Supreme Court justice
• 3:14
  Speaker 1: had to say.
• 3:15
  Speaker 3: I guess I'm thinking of it of the fact that
• 3:19
  Speaker 3: remedial action absent discriminatory intent is really not a new
• 3:24
  Speaker 3: idea in the civil rights laws. And my kind of
• 3:29
  Speaker 3: paradigmatic example of this is something like the Ada Congress
• 3:34
  Speaker 3: passed the Americans with Disabilities Act against the backdrop of
• 3:39
  Speaker 3: a world that was generally not accessible to people with disabilities,
• 3:44
  Speaker 3: and so it was discriminatory in effect because these folks
• 3:48
  Speaker 3: were not able to access these buildings, and it didn't
• 3:52
  Speaker 3: matter whether the person who built the building or the
• 3:56
  Speaker 3: person who owned the building intended for them to be exclusionary.
• 4:01
  Speaker 3: That's irrelevant. Congress said, the facilities have to be made
• 4:05
  Speaker 3: equally open to people with disabilities, if readily possible. I
• 4:11
  Speaker 3: guess I don't understand why that's not what's happening here.
• 4:14
  Speaker 3: The idea in section two is that we are responding
• 4:19
  Speaker 3: to current day manifestations of past and present decisions that
• 4:25
  Speaker 3: disadvantage minorities and make it so that they don't have
• 4:28
  Speaker 3: equal access to the voting system. Right they're disabled. In fact,
• 4:35
  Speaker 3: we use the word disabled in Milligan.
• 4:39
  Speaker 2: Supreme Court Justice Katanji Brown Jackson is saying that people
• 4:43
  Speaker 2: who are black are disabled. She made the argument. I'm
• 4:50
  Speaker 2: telling you the call for her impeachment is going to grow.
• 4:55
  Speaker 2: I'm the first person I agree it's going to grow.
