1:53
this. We're going to go live on

2:04
lives, it's going to be something that we
2:06
are going to do for our members and
2:08
our paid subscribers. It's free today, but just
2:10
wanted to give you a sample of some
2:12
of the things we're doing in addition to
2:14
our regular show. Well, I'm
2:16
drinking prima pavé, you
2:19
have coffee, and
2:21
we are running it down. My
2:23
favorite kind of coffee, instant nescafe,
2:25
okay? We're not going with a
2:27
fancy schmancy. We like it instant. We've
2:30
got our Enoch Pratt Library
2:32
Cup, and we're ready to go. What's
2:35
in your coffee? Do you
2:37
add like a vanilla flavored,
2:39
you know, creamer? It's
2:42
a non -dairy
2:44
creamer and the flavor that
2:46
I'm doing right now is
2:48
non -dairy and it's Italian cream. So
2:52
it's non -dairy
2:54
Italian cream creamer. I
2:57
love that. I love that.
2:59
I am waiting if you guys see
3:01
me looking down. I'm always like doing
3:03
so many different things when we're on
3:05
this show, but that's because I'm communicating
3:08
with producers and we're trying to also
3:10
do this live on Instagram. We're
3:12
trying to figure it out. So I'm waiting
3:14
on a notification to see if we can
3:16
do that. But meanwhile we're live here on
3:18
YouTube and so everybody. So what's
3:20
your wind down Chickadee? How's your week gone?
3:22
It's Thursday. It has been
3:25
for you busy bee. It's been
3:27
a little bit too busy. I'm a little bit a little
3:29
stressed a little stressed my a little I'm a
3:31
little back -to -back -to -back We're trying to get one, you
3:33
know wind the schedule down a little bit, but
3:35
it hasn't worked But I never got the chance to
3:37
give everyone the update on the ghost situation
3:39
So my wind down was gonna be
3:41
on that because I know people were interested in
3:43
the ghost Thank you all for jumping in the
3:45
comments and asking about the spirits that might be
3:47
living in my co -op in New York
3:49
City I am pleased
3:52
to announce that the
3:54
co -op, as of now,
3:56
is ghost -free. The daughter
3:58
and I, as well as our
4:00
friend Juan, we went over, we
4:02
stayed, we hung out all day
4:04
and for what? Three straight days
4:06
in the co -op. The
4:09
daughter and I slept overnight in the co -op.
4:11
But before that, we made sure the co -op
4:13
was ghost -free. So we set ourselves up for
4:15
success. We didn't just count on the ghost to
4:17
just be cool with us. I did a
4:20
couple of things. I looked up who died
4:22
in this house .com. It's like there's a
4:24
who died in this house website. So you
4:26
can find out who lived in the house.
4:28
We got the name of the little lady. So
4:31
I'm like, I know what I'm dealing with. And it is a lady. And
4:34
that's actually, I had bought the place from her
4:36
son. So I knew it was a lady, but I just wanted to make
4:38
sure I had the name. Then we had
4:40
to find the white sage, because I had missed
4:42
my appointment with the guy who was going
4:44
to local jumpy the place for me. So since
4:46
I missed it, and then Miss Kim and
4:48
her pastor friend were like, don't local jumpy the
4:50
house, because you might actually make more girls
4:52
come in. So then I was completely like, confused.
4:54
was like, I don't know if I should
4:56
go jump in the house or not. But I
4:58
was like, I've got to ensure that I
5:00
don't have a haunting. So what we did is
5:02
Wanjira knew the exact person to get the
5:04
good white sage from. And the way you get
5:06
good white sage, if you're in Harlem, is you've
5:08
got to find the right Shea Butter
5:11
Man. Because the Shea Butter Man is very
5:13
likely to also have the white sage
5:15
and also the Moko Jumbi equipment. So we're
5:17
like, we're going to find, but she
5:19
knew exactly the right guy. African guy, he's
5:21
the Shea Butter Man. So he
5:23
sells, of course, Shea Butter. Incense.
5:27
If you know you're at the right place
5:29
when you're in Harlem, you've
5:31
got the African Shea Butter. And
5:34
he's got the various forms of incense. So
5:36
he had all of the things that
5:38
he needed in order to equip us for
5:40
success. So we go to the right
5:42
local Jumbie guy. He's got the white sage.
5:44
We buy the white sage. I also
5:46
bought some black soap because you also know
5:49
he's legit because he sells the black
5:51
soap. If they don't sell the black
5:53
soap and the shea butter. And
5:55
incense is of various forms. They're not
5:57
the right guy. You got to go with
5:59
different Harlem Shea Butter, man. But it's got all
6:01
of the things. I bought some black soap. Of course, you
6:03
got to have black soap. I did not
6:05
buy Shea Butter because I've always had lots of Shea
6:07
Butter, but I'm shiny. And I
6:09
bought the white sage and I bought two kinds.
6:11
I bought the incense white sage and I
6:13
bought the actual natural white sage so that we
6:15
could walk through the house. I went back
6:18
to the place, walked through each
6:20
room, called out the lady and said,
6:22
hey, lady, hey, friend. It's
6:24
just me, Joy. I'm in your
6:26
house. I know I did some rentals and it
6:28
probably looks a little weird. You know, it's
6:30
probably not looking familiar to you, but do not
6:32
be alarmed. All of these renovations were really
6:34
good. So here's what we're going to do, lady. You
6:37
and me, we're going to have an arrangement. You
6:39
stay the hell away from me. Don't
6:42
come near me and scare me. Don't
6:44
pop out and show inwards. Just
6:46
leave me alone and I'll leave
6:48
you alone. So you offer her the
6:51
opportunity to cohabitate? You don't want
6:53
to banish her? Well, I mean, I did tell her, I
6:55
did say to her that, you know, you see the
6:57
light, that that light that you see, you should go in
6:59
it. You should just walk right in there
7:01
and you should just go in there because
7:03
that's a great place for you to be. And
7:05
so if you go into the light, right,
7:08
and I stay here in the place, we're
7:10
cool. You know what I mean? You
7:12
know, a lot of times, you
7:14
know, when you read and hear stories
7:16
of ghosts and a lot of
7:18
times they're existing in a space here
7:20
on earth because they're stuck. There's
7:23
something about the sage helps them find something about the
7:25
sage. I don't know the full philosophy of it
7:27
because I'm only half African And you know and the
7:29
Caribbean side they believe in Duffy, you know So
7:31
it was like they I do believe that there's a
7:33
Duffy and that's what they call ghosts But but
7:35
I'm like so I know that sometimes they just get
7:37
stuck and they just don't know how to go
7:39
But you had it you cut the sage helps them
7:41
pretty much find their way out So I was
7:44
like, you know, you know, and they get alarmed by
7:46
the Renault because they're like this don't even look
7:48
like my house What's happening? So I just wanted her
7:50
to understand that I'm not harming anything. I'm cool.
7:52
I'm a good person, I'm friendly, but I don't
7:54
want her around. You know what I mean? It's like, it's not like
7:56
you don't got to go home is what I'm saying, but you got to
7:58
get the hell out of this court. But
8:00
you said it very kindly.
8:02
Very nicely. Very, very nicely. And
8:05
to my credit, I will give myself
8:07
credit. I did not see
8:09
her nor did the daughter who's better at perceiving them.
8:11
Sends her in the house at all. So we managed it,
8:13
but but she did stuff with my girl and daughter. She's
8:16
like, but I'm sleeping in bed with you She was like, I
8:18
am not going in that other room. So
8:20
she didn't really fully play out the you know, the
8:22
way it really could have gone So she was
8:24
squirreling about what's that? I was squirreling about the other
8:26
side, but we were fine. I mean it was
8:28
no we had no ghostly encounters
8:30
no No negative encounters all was
8:32
fine. I self local jumpy in my place
8:34
and I feel good about it girl
8:36
What you say, I know I
8:38
will see you in a couple
8:41
of weeks in New York City. And
8:43
when I tell you, I was going to
8:45
stay with you, but I will be
8:47
getting a hotel room. I will not be
8:49
stepping foot. Come on
8:51
over. Come on up. Come on. No,
8:53
ma 'am. I don't want some ghosts leaving
8:55
on my back, getting in my bag, being
8:59
like, let me go home with her and haunt
9:01
her. No, ma 'am. Oh,
9:03
no, they like the South. If you like you live in
9:05
the South, they might be like, oh, I'm coming with you. That's what all
9:07
the other girls are at. That's why I'm going to live in
9:09
here. Oh, see that's one
9:11
I would never there's no there's not enough
9:13
white sage in the world to fix
9:15
Lake Lanier Lake Lanier is so haunted and
9:17
so cursed if you go on there you don't
9:19
do that I would say definitely don't go on
9:21
Lake Lanier, you know Queen of
9:23
Fua We had
9:26
a house right near Lake
9:28
Lanier here in this area and
9:30
I went there for a dinner
9:32
and girl I was the
9:34
only, it was two of us
9:36
that were at the dinner that were
9:38
from Georgia. Yeah. And, you
9:40
know, going to Gwinnett County, where Oprah
9:42
back in the day did that town
9:44
hall and with all those white people
9:46
because they ran the black people out.
9:48
And Jose Williams had the march there
9:51
and all that kind of stuff. That's
9:53
where Lake Lanier is, right? And
9:56
it is believed to be
9:58
haunted because there are graves of
10:00
black people. You know, the
10:02
whole town is under there.
10:04
They bury the whole town
10:06
and fill it with water.
10:09
I don't play with Lake Lanier.
10:11
And I told that woman,
10:14
you need to find another house.
10:16
And eventually she did, but she didn't know
10:18
that history. But when I tell you when
10:20
we all left dinner, we had a caravan.
10:22
We all, because it was all black women
10:24
and we followed each other to the main
10:27
highway because she was, you know, it's back
10:29
in the woods and stuff. Baby. Mm
10:31
-hmm. Mm -hmm. And she didn't have
10:33
no curtains. It was just open.
10:35
Girl, down here, a lot of people
10:37
don't have curtains because they just have open
10:39
windows. She had open windows. Uh -uh. Baby,
10:41
no. No, no, no, no, no.
10:43
Well, let me tell you my wind down
10:45
real quick. Please. I'm glad you are satisfied with
10:47
the girl's situation, but I won't be staying there.
10:50
Love you, but no, thank you.
10:52
I'm not even coming over. You're
10:55
gonna love it. You gotta at
10:57
least come because it's such a
10:59
beautiful building. You really gotta come
11:01
just as a historic building in
11:03
a very like black history focused
11:05
space. You gotta come see it. You're
11:07
coming to daytime. I
11:10
don't mess with ghosts. I don't know. You
11:12
need to get some religious people up in
11:14
there. You need like... Oh no, we're still gonna
11:16
make an appointment. I'm gonna get the guy
11:18
back. I just missed my appointment because I had
11:20
to be in... Maybe can do that while
11:22
I'm there. Now, if you do that, you
11:24
know, maybe I'll come, but then they jump
11:27
into you and... I don't want all that.
11:29
I don't that. Well, see, they don't... Not
11:31
all ghosts jump into you. That's the demons.
11:34
See, there's no But how do you know
11:36
what you're dealing with? You could have a
11:38
whole... know what you're dealing with
11:40
See I don't see that stuff.
11:42
I can't sense it. I can't feel
11:44
it. I'm an animal impact That's
11:46
as far as I go. You got
11:48
some dead animals there. Maybe I
11:50
can connect with them, but that's it.
11:52
No, ma 'am. Mm -hmm. Let's say
11:54
you wind down. So my wind down
11:56
is girl I am
11:58
loving Substack and I have to say
12:00
to you, when I tell you I'm spending most
12:02
of my time, it's like I saw you texting
12:05
last night and I started to say, girl, I
12:07
just finished my Substack. Because
12:09
my goal was to get it out
12:11
by noon, but now I'm getting it
12:13
out right before midnight. So I'm trying
12:15
to get ahead so I can do
12:17
it. But I really love what Substack
12:19
is and it was you that said
12:22
to me, You know, we
12:24
got to get read this read that on
12:26
sub stack. You got to get on sub
12:28
stack and I absolutely love it Yeah,
12:30
and I just want to talk
12:32
about so I've got my vegan
12:34
sexy cool newsletter. That's once a
12:36
week beautiful Which I'm dragging you
12:38
into because it's great. It's like
12:40
vegan 101. It is It was
12:42
so helpful and simple and straightforward. That's
12:45
really it was really excellent That's the
12:47
thing. Did you feel compelled to finally become vegan after
12:49
you read? I mean, I had a peanut butter
12:51
sandwich this morning. So as long as I it's too
12:53
complicated. But I like that you laid
12:55
it out. I
12:57
think about it. I'm going
12:59
to convince you one day you're going to
13:01
be like, girl, I read your newsletter
13:03
and I am in. I'm going to keep
13:05
reading. I'm going in, I'm
13:07
going in, but go on, keep going. But no,
13:09
no, I was going to say, with Substack, I like
13:11
you have been going to people and saying, like
13:13
I went to my friend, Sybil Wilkes, you know, from
13:15
the Tom Jordan morning show. And I was like,
13:17
girl, you got to get on Substack. And
13:20
people are like, sub who? Right.
13:23
And that's how I was, because you've known about it
13:25
for a long time. Well, no, my friend, Yashara
13:27
Lee, I have to give him credit. And he's very
13:29
popular on social media. He used to be very
13:31
popular on Twitter back when it was Twitter. And he's
13:33
been telling me, four years, you've got to get
13:35
a sub stack. And I never heard of it until
13:37
he told me about it. And he was like,
13:39
you are missing it. And when he knew I had
13:41
a book coming out, this was years ago
13:44
when I had, I think, my first or second
13:46
book coming out. He's like, you've got to get
13:48
it before you do your book coming out, because
13:50
it's the perfect way to inform your audience. of
13:52
a book coming out and he's like a newsletter
13:54
is better than a website because you actually have
13:56
an emails of people they sign up so that
13:58
you can blast information to your specific people who
14:00
have demonstrated that they care what you
14:02
think and so he's like you really need
14:05
him he was really a big evangelist
14:07
of it and I'm on it now
14:09
and I love it absolutely love it girl
14:11
they need to be paying you some
14:13
kind of finders fee because you are assigned.
14:15
I was talking to somebody I was doing an
14:17
interview with a woman on my three day
14:19
wellness and I was we were talking after and
14:21
I was telling her about substack and I
14:23
was like how you got me on there and
14:25
she's already on there but she's you know
14:27
why she got on there because she heard you
14:29
talking about it. Oh well there you go.
14:31
Yeah, I mean we love the YouTube too. Let's
14:33
not leave YouTube out. We love we love
14:36
you too. You know, we love YouTube. Absolutely. I
14:38
I figure that out but that's like our
14:40
main thing but now read this read that is
14:42
also on sub stack and then I
14:44
followed and now I'm doing a newsletter every
14:46
day called lean in That's the Jackie
14:48
Reed stuff, but I've also got the vegan
14:50
sexy cool stuff. And then it's just
14:52
trying to figure out what I'm going to
14:54
put behind a paywall and what I'm
14:56
going to do for free. And I'm
14:58
just kind of asking people for grace
15:00
as I try to figure it out.
15:03
But I love it so much. And
15:05
I want everybody to be on it
15:07
because for now it feels troll free. That's
15:10
what I love about it. Right. Yes. There's
15:12
no algorithm that you have to follow.
15:14
And there's the people who are following you
15:16
are doing so intentionally. They don't stumble
15:18
across your stuff. And so like
15:20
I, there's, it's all love. Like it's such
15:22
a great platform. And the way that I've
15:24
kept so, you know, so the joy and
15:27
read .com, I used to have a joy and
15:29
read .com, like normal webpage, but I converted
15:31
that to just be my sub stack. And
15:33
I'm loving it. Cause number one, I then don't have a
15:35
whole website. I have to keep up, which was a lot
15:37
of work. Um, And
15:39
now I just keep up the substack and what I
15:41
love about it is I can do not only
15:43
Hey, this is where I'm gonna be I
15:45
can cat you do my little calendar there
15:47
But the way that I deal with
15:50
the paid piece is the only thing
15:52
that I put behind a paywall
15:54
is commenting for now I'm like for now
15:56
if you you can read my stuff for free
15:58
on joy and read calm and I please hope
16:00
that you all will sign up You can sign up for
16:02
free read whatever you want for free, but if you want to
16:04
chat to me That's what I
16:06
put behind the paywall because I think a troll
16:08
isn't going to take that extra step of
16:11
paying to scream at me.
16:13
You know, you can scream at me
16:15
for free on Instagram and Facebook
16:17
or whatever. Yeah, but I'm not going to let you scream
16:19
at me on my newsletter. You know, if you want
16:21
to if you want to chat to me, that's
16:23
where I put behind the paywall because it just it
16:26
keeps the trolls and a lot of those of
16:28
us who are media people like you and me that
16:30
are like that come from that world and that
16:32
have like a sort of public facing life. A
16:34
lot of us are using Substack that way
16:36
to keep trolls to a minimum. We
16:38
pay while commenting because just it's so it's
16:41
such a breath of fresh air because then the
16:43
things that people are saying, these are
16:45
people who've taken that extra step of
16:47
caring what you think and really have really
16:49
thoughtful comments. And the comments are more
16:51
meaningful, you know, because these are people who
16:53
really take the extra step to subscribe
16:55
and they have really interesting things to say.
16:58
Yeah. No, I agree. I
17:00
love it. Yeah. But this is
17:02
helping me. You, you know,
17:04
Joanne is really my, uh, manager,
17:07
uh, marketing director. And
17:10
I want to make her write a book.
17:12
Yeah. And write and, and soon to be
17:14
my publisher or a publishing agent, I should
17:16
say, because she is, she's not, and I
17:18
was going to text you the other day
17:20
and say, where do you write a book?
17:24
You know what I mean? What
17:26
platform do you write it where
17:28
someone can't steal your content? I'm
17:30
worried about that. You know I mean? Because
17:32
I'm like, well, do I just go in Word
17:34
and start writing? And I know there's certain
17:36
apps and tools that you can use, but with
17:39
the way the world is, what's taking someone
17:41
from stealing your content? No, what and that's why
17:43
you have to be really careful and this
17:45
is the other piece sub stack is great because
17:47
it's also your You own your mailing list
17:49
everything. It's very protected and when people can always
17:51
do your content a screenshot Whatever you've done and
17:53
they can take it but I would say if
17:55
you're like for instance an artist like you know,
17:57
you know my the the oldest daughter is an
18:00
artist She's basically off Instagram for that reason because
18:02
if you are an artist and you put
18:04
your art on Instagram know that It will
18:06
be probably stolen and AI people will take
18:08
it and repurpose it And I've talked to
18:10
a lot of cartoonists and illustrators who have
18:12
come off of Instagram because of the fear
18:14
of their work being stolen Especially visual art
18:16
being stolen and people also who are not
18:19
taking as many, you know, and you'll know
18:21
I used to be very selfie I used
18:23
to have lots and lots of photos of
18:25
myself those my family lots of selfies I've
18:27
done less and less of that because then
18:29
people can take those images and repurpose them
18:32
For AI and I already got got when
18:34
they did the fake gummy thing They were
18:36
taking video of me that was real video
18:38
and real photos that were on my Instagram
18:40
and repurposing them to fake that I was
18:42
selling these gummies and they were making all
18:44
this money Hawking gummies that I don't even
18:46
know what these gummies are They could be
18:48
harming people making people sick and they've got
18:51
my image me and Anderson Cooper Supposedly selling
18:53
these gummies. So yeah, mean it put
18:55
online Any image you put online can be
18:57
stolen girl right now. There's a there's so
18:59
many weird AI things I'm
19:02
just like, this is crazy. It
19:04
gets crazy. I know. And that's why
19:06
I, sub stack feels like a
19:08
safe space. Yes. You know I mean?
19:10
I've gotten so many lovely messages
19:12
from people. It's just really been nice.
19:14
Yeah. So it's like my new
19:16
favorite place more than I used to
19:18
be like Instagram girl. Yeah. I
19:20
was just always on Instagram, but now
19:22
I realized that that can only
19:24
take me so far. Um, and
19:26
that sub stack is, is really building a
19:28
business. It really is built a better place
19:30
to build a brand for me. I mean,
19:32
and they're not paying me to say that
19:34
I just And they don't pay you to
19:36
do and the thing is what the way
19:38
I kind of and I have a lot
19:40
of different social media I'm off x twitter
19:42
I should kind of regret, you know completely
19:45
deleting and getting rid of my name because
19:47
there's a fake me on x twitter That's
19:49
not me if you see that's why I
19:51
wouldn't leave. I said that to you I
19:53
said I'm not I don't I'm not active
19:55
but I'm not leaving because I don't want
19:57
somebody to take my name Yeah, and they
19:59
and that happened to me already so I
20:01
may have to go reclaim my name over
20:03
there, but um I use I use instagram
20:05
to curate a news feed so basically what
20:07
if you if you follow me on instagram
20:09
That's where I kind of try to give
20:11
daily news and get because there are a
20:13
lot of people who get their news now
20:15
from instagram and tiktok so I use tiktok
20:17
and uh and tiktok and instagram to just
20:19
be like hey here's some news you need
20:21
to know And I just really lean into
20:23
that. I have another little Instagram called, um,
20:25
the read carpet where, uh, the style Marshall,
20:27
my stylist and I kind of put up
20:29
fashion kind of stuff and it's fun. That's
20:31
the style Marshall. The style Marshall Danielle, the
20:33
style Marshall baby. Follow her at me. I
20:35
am the style Marshall, uh, at on, uh,
20:37
on Instagram. She's fantastic. I love
20:39
that. But we do that and we kind
20:41
of co -curate that one to do like,
20:43
you know, you know, looks to tell people,
20:45
because people will often be like, what were
20:47
you wearing at X event? Like, who made
20:49
that? And so that's what that's where you'll
20:51
find out who made if you're if I'm
20:53
wearing something you like, it's on there. So
20:55
that's the carpet. And then I use TikTok
20:58
to do, you know, some talky, you know,
21:00
like, you know, breakdowns of information. But I
21:02
really do my daily writing and my daily,
21:04
these are my thoughts on on Substack. Girl,
21:07

21:09

22:35

22:37
get to our shit you
22:40
need to know And we're starting
22:42
we believe to know shit
22:44
They do they do and we
22:46
got the shit you need
22:48
We're starting with these crazy deportations
22:50
which I have to say
22:52
Have just and I wrote about
22:55
this on my latest newsletter
22:57
on substack. It just it really
22:59
kind of Just broke my
23:01
spirit this whole situation when
23:03
the Supreme Court weighed
23:05
in and said You
23:08
know when they were trying to bring
23:10
back this makeup artist, right? Yes And
23:12
just you know quick backstory for you
23:14
guys, but this has been in the
23:16
news so much I know probably what
23:18
most of you all know about it
23:20
and that is you know Donald Trump
23:22
who campaigned on deporting hardened criminals, you
23:25
know that were here illegally from the
23:27
country You know,
23:29
he campaigned on that, but what
23:31
he's actually doing is illegal
23:33
and unconstitutional. And that is he's
23:35
just grabbing people off the
23:37
street. And, you
23:40
know, without due process
23:42
and sending them to
23:44
prisons around the world,
23:46
particularly El Salvador, where,
23:48
you know, they may never be
23:51
heard of again. And there was a
23:53
particular makeup artist who was snatched
23:55
up. who was here legally, and
23:57
had the proper paperwork, like a
23:59
judge approved that he could stay
24:01
in the country until all the
24:03
paperwork got worked out. And by
24:05
the way, it was because he
24:07
had a year of persecution in
24:10
Venezuela because he is gay, but
24:12
go on. Yeah, he's gay, makeup
24:14
artist. They deported him. And
24:17
his lawyers haven't spoken to him. He was supposed
24:19
to show up for a hearing and never did.
24:21
That's how they found out something was up. And
24:23
a federal judge heard
24:25
this situation and said, bring
24:27
this man back. Trump
24:30
went to the Supreme Court, and
24:32
the Supreme Court ruled in favor
24:34
of Trump. And now
24:36
this man's family may never see
24:38
or hear from him again. That
24:41
to me is crazy. And
24:43
now he's talking about floating
24:45
around the idea of deporting
24:47
American citizens. Yes. who are
24:49
hardened criminals or repeat offenders.
24:52
But my thing about that is
24:54
you said that's what you were
24:56
going to do with people that
24:58
were undocumented or not citizens. It
25:01
was just going to be hard criminals,
25:03
but you're just deporting everyday people. Disappearing
25:06
people I love that you know, I
25:08
heard that first from you that that term
25:10
disappearing people is you know, very adequate
25:12
But what what are your thoughts on this
25:14
and what's the any any updates from
25:16
what I'm saying because I know you're following
25:18
this I had to put unplug I
25:20
watched that 60 minutes piece Which I hope
25:22
everybody you told me about that and
25:24
I ended up watching it and I'm telling
25:26
you I was just in tears because
25:28
this man is just getting away with everything.
25:30
It's just disheartening And that's just one
25:33
of the people. There's a guy from Maryland
25:35
who they admit was actually wrongly deported.
25:37
They're not admitting that this young man, the
25:39
makeup artist was wrongly deported, but there's
25:41
a Maryland man who the regime, as I
25:43
call them, actually admits was wrongly deported,
25:45
was taken by mistake. They're claiming
25:47
that all of these men who are Venezuelan, most
25:49
of them are men, they're claiming
25:51
that they're a part of this
25:53
thing called Trende Aragua, which is
25:55
a notorious Venezuelan gang, a violent
25:58
Venezuelan gang. So they're using... something
26:00
called the Alien Enemies Act of
26:02
1789, 1798. And it's a wartime
26:04
law that has only been used
26:06
during the War of 1812, World
26:08
War I and World War II
26:11
to detain people that you claim
26:13
are part of the people you're
26:15
at war with, that are loyal
26:17
to the people with whom we
26:19
are at war. Number one, we're
26:22
not at war with Tren de
26:24
Aragua. Okay, we're not at war
26:26
with Venezuela. So that doesn't make
26:28
any sense. The last time
26:30
that we used that that a
26:32
president used the alien enemies act of
26:34
1798 was in World War two
26:37
when Japanese Americans not Japanese foreigners, but
26:39
Japanese Americans were locked in concentration
26:41
camps by FDR remember that Including the
26:43
guy who played mr. Sulu on
26:45
his family when he was a kid
26:47
was locked up in a concentration
26:50
camp With his family because they are
26:52
he's American. They are a Japanese
26:54
Americans. That's the last time that it
26:56
was used Based solely on
26:58
being of Japanese origin and there was actually
27:00
one black man who ended up in there,
27:02
too There's a whole interesting story about a
27:04
black man that ended up blocked in there,
27:06
too Because his good friends that he lives
27:08
in a community of Japanese Americans and he
27:11
wanted to be with his friend and ended
27:13
up going in there That's a long different
27:15
story. So this should be completely illegal a
27:17
judge ordered the return as you said of
27:19
one of the men who was wrongly detained
27:21
the Chief Justice of the Supreme Court, John
27:23
Roberts, blocked the appeal and basically stayed the
27:25
demand that that man be brought back. So
27:27
you have the Chief Justice of the Supreme
27:29
Court being like, nah, lead that man in
27:31
there. Then separately, they
27:34
ruled 5 -4 in favor
27:36
of allowing the Trump
27:39
regime to continue using this
27:41
war or this wartime
27:43
law to conduct, quote unquote,
27:45
a regular, that they're claiming that Tren
27:47
de Aragua is conducting irregular warfare
27:49
against the US. Therefore, they can deport
27:51
anyone they think is a part
27:53
of this gang. The way they're deciding
27:55
that you're in this gang is
27:58
tattoos. There's one guy who they sent
28:00
over there into, and this place that they're
28:02
sending them is not in Venezuela. So
28:04
let's just be clear. They're not returning
28:06
these people to Venezuela. No, it's El
28:08
Salvador. Correct. And the guy
28:10
who is the autocratic leader of El
28:12
Salvador said, Hey, if you pay me
28:14
a fee, I'll take whatever prisoners you
28:16
want to send me pay. And
28:18
they're, and we are now paying or
28:20
essentially selling these people to this guy
28:23
in the leader of El Salvador. And
28:25
he's putting them in this notorious prison
28:27
where the worst of the worst
28:29
are that 60 minute story showed you
28:31
that prison where they grabbed them. They
28:33
put them in like slave chains. They
28:35
hogtied them. They make them bend over.
28:37
They shaved. their heads, the
28:39
hairdresser, they show him in the 60 minutes piece.
28:41
This guy is terrified of crying for his mom. These
28:44
people are not even being sent to
28:46
their home country. They're being sent to
28:48
El Salvador, to this notorious prison where
28:50
Kristi Noem, our Homeland Security Director, posed
28:52
for pictures in front of the jail
28:54
with all the half -naked men. That's
28:56
where she was. Yeah. And they're
28:58
not even, I just want to jump
29:00
in and just underline what you're saying
29:03
here because I think this is really
29:05
important for people to grasp, right? You
29:07
can deport someone and just send them
29:09
to a different country. Right send them send
29:11
them to their home country, which is
29:13
what? But what they're doing
29:15
is not only sending sending them
29:17
to a country that they have no
29:19
connection to but Imprisoning them they're
29:22
putting a lot of these people that
29:24
60 minutes report says 75 % of
29:26
the the hundreds who have been
29:28
deported don't have criminal record record process
29:30
and sending them to prison You
29:32
can send somebody and say this is
29:34
worse treatment than Nazis Correct. That
29:36
never happened to Nazis. Yeah, never. Who
29:38
were caught in this country and
29:40
reported and sent back to Germany. To
29:42
Germany. Right. not in the prison.
29:44
No. They're not sending these Venezuelans to
29:46
Venezuela. And I think this is
29:48
really important. They're sending him to a
29:50
third country to prison. And these
29:52
people are now locked up and may
29:54
never be seen again. That's why
29:56
they're saying these people are being disappeared.
29:59
They're not being deported. If you're deported, it
30:01
means if you're from Guyana, they land your
30:03
ass in Guyana. If you're from India, they
30:05
land your ass in India. And you are
30:07
free to go when you land. You don't
30:09
end up in prison. But in this case,
30:11
these people and either way, they'd be in
30:14
prison because in many cases, like the hairdresser,
30:16
if they were to send him to Venezuela,
30:18
he'd probably be prison door killed because he
30:20
was. having his asylum hearing was about him
30:22
being in fear for his life in Venezuela.
30:24
It is perfectly legal to come to the
30:26
United States and ask for asylum. That is
30:29
not a crime. It is not illegal to
30:31
present yourself at the border and say, I
30:33
need asylum, but they're turning that into a
30:35
crime. And even if you come in and
30:37
don't present yourself and disappear into the country,
30:39
it's a misdemeanor. It's not a felony. So
30:41
you're not supposed to end up in prison
30:43
for, but that's what they're doing. The
30:46
five four ruling in which Amy Coney
30:48
Barrett joined the women. And all four
30:50
of the women voted, you cannot do
30:52
this. All five of the right wing
30:54
men voted, yeah, you can do it.
30:56
Let me just read you what
30:58
Sonia Sotomayor, who wrote the primary
31:00
dissent in this case, Amy Cooney
31:03
Barrett wrote a partial dissent. But I
31:05
just want to read you what Sonia Sotomayor,
31:07
who she along with Justice Jackson, their
31:09
dissents are epic and are going to read
31:11
into history. She said, what if the
31:13
government later determines that it sent one of
31:15
these detainees to Seacot, which is the
31:17
name of that prison in error? or
31:20
a court eventually decides that the
31:22
president lacked authority under the Alien Enemies
31:24
Act to declare that Trendy Aragua
31:26
is perpetrating an attempt or attempting an
31:28
invasion against the territory of the
31:30
United States. The government takes the
31:32
position that even when it makes a
31:34
mistake, it cannot retrieve individuals from the
31:36
Salvadoran prisons to which it has sent
31:38
them. See defendants memorandum of law and
31:41
opposition. The
31:43
implication of the government's position
31:45
is that not only non
31:47
-citizens, but also United States
31:49
citizens could be taken off
31:51
the streets, forced onto planes,
31:53
and confined in foreign prisons
31:55
with no opportunity for redress
31:57
if judicial review is denied
32:00
unlawfully before removal. History is
32:02
no stranger to such lawless
32:04
regimes that this nation's systems
32:06
of laws is designed to
32:08
prevent, not encourage. their
32:10
rise. What basically she's saying
32:12
is If you let the
32:14
administration do this based on tattoos in
32:16
one case the guy's tattoo was of
32:18
his favorite soccer team But if your
32:20
tattoo has a crown on it, they're
32:22
saying the crown is the symbol of
32:25
Tren de Aragua So if you have
32:27
any kind of a crown tattooed on
32:29
your body, they say you're in that
32:31
gang So it's the color of your
32:33
skin and your tattoos. There's a soccer
32:35
coach who had his favorite soccer team
32:37
with it has a crown Real Madrid
32:39
if you're a crown on top of
32:41
a soccer ball, right? But they said
32:43
that means you're Tren de Aragua They're
32:45
basically saying, if you're Venezuelan, you're in
32:48
that gang. And they're also doing it
32:50
to Cubans. They're doing it to Haitians.
32:52
They're doing it to people from India.
32:54
They have a Turkish woman. They disappeared
32:56
off the street. God only knows where
32:58
she is. And in many cases, they're
33:00
sending them to a prison in Louisiana,
33:02
because Louisiana is like Santa Marta. And
33:04
Guantanamo Bay. And to Gitmo. And they're
33:06
literally disappearing people like they are an
33:09
old regime from Central America in the
33:11
But here's my issue. I love that
33:13
you read what, you know, Sonia Sotomayor
33:15
said, and I know Justice Jackson, our
33:17
sororore, you know, said something, you know,
33:19
very upset about this. But the thing
33:21
is, those words will be in the
33:23
history books, right? That they voted against
33:25
this. But it doesn't change the situation.
33:27
And that's what's frustrating to me. I'm
33:29
glad that they wrote that. I'm glad
33:32
that they're saying that. But
33:34
Jesus Christ, what are we doing about it?
33:36
Can I just say? People
33:39
say that the dissents only
33:41
our words. No, if you look
33:43
at the dissents in Plessy
33:45
versus Ferguson, it was the dissents
33:47
in Plessy that were the
33:49
basis of Brown versus the Board
33:51
of Education. But who's doing
33:53
who? You know, because these people,
33:55
we don't even know if they're like,
33:57
like there's, they could be dead to
33:59
this, right? They could be dead. I
34:01
get that, right? I'm not saying that
34:03
those words aren't important, but I'm saying there's
34:06
such an urgency now. to what's happening.
34:08
And I'm just like, who's doing something
34:10
about it? The ACLU is in the
34:12
middle of this fight. And so the one
34:14
piece where the ACLU is saying that
34:16
they did get something out of it
34:18
is that the ruling, the 5 -4 ruling
34:20
said that each of these people who's
34:22
deported is entitled to due process. And
34:24
so they have to at least get a
34:26
hearing before and get notified that they're
34:29
going to be deported. But here's the
34:31
problem. Right, but here's the
34:33
problem. They're already gone. And so this is what
34:35
I'm saying. I heard one lawyer
34:37
say in that 60 minutes piece
34:39
when the reporter asked, so what about
34:41
family and friends? He's
34:43
like, they may never see them again. may
34:45
never see them again. Girl, that's just. And
34:47
they're all pervading. Right. And
34:49
that they're the American judge who said, you
34:51
have to literally bring these people back. The
34:54
Supreme Court has said, no, you don't. So
34:56
these people who have already been deported,
34:59
they're now saying for future potential deportees, they
35:01
have to get a hearing. But the
35:03
hairdresser, the guy who was the soccer fan,
35:05
the coach, the guy from Maryland who
35:07
they admit was wrongly detained, they're already in
35:09
that prison and there's no law. This
35:11
is what y 'all have to realize. And
35:13
this is why it's really important that this
35:16
is shit you need to know. Right
35:18
now, the US has no law. There is
35:20
no federal government. It doesn't exist. There's
35:22
no FBI. There's no Department
35:24
of Justice. There's no law. The
35:26
Supreme Court won't help you. We, as
35:28
Black people, have always relied on
35:30
the federal government as the last stop,
35:32
the backstop for our rights. It
35:34
is gone. It's not existent. I mean,
35:36
and they have made a difference
35:38
over the years in us moving forward.
35:40
They could do a lot more, but
35:43
up till now. And now it's
35:45
done. But my fear is, like a
35:47
friend of mine was talking about
35:49
traveling internationally. And, you
35:51
know, when you're coming back and going
35:53
through customs, coming back into the US,
35:55
they're checking your phones. Yeah. You
35:58
know what I mean? They're double
36:00
checking your paperwork. You could be
36:02
disappeared from just coming back into
36:04
the country. Who's gonna, right?
36:06
Who's gonna stop them? And now that
36:08
they've said, and by the way, the woman,
36:10
Catherine, what is her? Levitt, Catherine Levitt,
36:12
whatever her name is, the spokeswoman, she admitted
36:14
from the podium that Karine Jean -Pierre used
36:16
to stand behind. That lady stood in
36:19
that same podium. She ain't, she ain't no
36:21
Karine Jean -Pierre. Let's just be clear. She
36:23
admitted. that Donald Trump is studying
36:25
ways to use this same power
36:27
against American citizens. That's what I
36:29
said. He's he he's saying people
36:32
who are hardened criminals and they
36:34
don't mean that defenders. Yeah, that
36:36
supposed to be that was supposed
36:38
to be the guidelines for, you
36:40
know, non Americans that were waiting
36:42
for, you know, that's who he
36:44
was deporting the criminals. And now
36:46
you've got all these. You
36:49
know crying because it was like
36:51
I didn't think that he was gonna
36:53
come for us You know my
36:55
sister my brother my you know even
36:57
children are being deported and they're
36:59
not criminals But they're being allowed to
37:01
get away with everything everything and
37:03
so by the way stop them from
37:05
stopping one of us right and
37:07
saying a criminal and also taking you
37:09
in a back room putting you
37:11
on a plane and you end up
37:13
in El Salvador And I think
37:15
it must be said he's a criminal
37:21
Trump is literally a felon, calling
37:23
other people criminals. So what does criminal
37:25
mean? He's a criminal. He was
37:27
adjudicated to be a criminal. He
37:29
is a felon. So he's a criminal. So
37:31
he's a felon, but he's saying I get
37:33
to decide who's a criminal and then I
37:35
get to decide based on just what I
37:37
want. And he now has a justice department
37:39
under Pam Bondi that is not going to
37:41
abide the law. She's going to do whatever
37:43
he wants. If Donald Trump tomorrow says your
37:46
uncle is a criminal based on nothing other
37:48
than he don't like your uncle. If he
37:50
decides George Clooney is a criminal or somebody
37:52
says I'm not a criminal, whoever he thinks
37:54
that he don't like, you're a criminal. And
37:56
who's going to say you're not a criminal?
37:58
Because all they have to do is say,
38:00
you're a criminal. And then they designate you
38:02
a criminal. And then they say, well, you're
38:04
going to turn the hour I go because
38:06
we said so. Trump himself is
38:08
a felon. Who is deciding? When
38:10
you put the guy at the very
38:13
top of the system is a
38:15
felon. who was adjudicated as such and
38:17
was adjudicated civilly. He doesn't see
38:19
himself as a felon. He doesn't see
38:21
himself as that and it doesn't
38:23
matter. It doesn't matter. President of the
38:26
United States. He pretty much has
38:28
immunity for whatever he does. Not pretty
38:30
much. Total immunity. Not
38:32
pretty much ma 'am. Total immunity. John
38:35
Roberts also said he has
38:37
complete He could commit a
38:39
crime today. He could literally
38:41
commit a crime right now, a
38:43
horrible crime. And according to Justice
38:45
Roberts, as long as he's
38:47
president or former president, he cannot
38:49
be prosecuted, y 'all. But let
38:51
me ask you this. Let me
38:53
ask you this. Why,
38:56
at what point? Because this is what I think
38:58
it's going to take to turn things around. It's
39:00
just, you know, me and my theories. I
39:02
think. that this is
39:04
going to take action from
39:06
the UN. I
39:09
don't know if the Hague, I don't
39:11
know if the Hague only deals with
39:13
times of war. I don't know. Like
39:15
I think internationally, people are going to
39:17
have to step in to try to
39:19
correct this because I don't think that
39:21
there's anything that can be done in
39:23
this country based on how the Democratic
39:26
Party is moving, how a lot of
39:28
people in the Republican Party that aren't
39:30
MAGA are staying quiet. Hello, George W.
39:32
Bush. You know what I
39:34
mean? It's like, you know, Mitt
39:36
Romney finally said something after the election.
39:39
It's like, and the Dems to me
39:41
still are trying to figure out
39:43
a plan and how to respond. And
39:45
they just, you know, aside from
39:47
Senator Cory Booker, my fellow vegan who
39:50
we love. I
39:52
applaud what he did, but my
39:54
thing, and I wrote about this in
39:56
my newsletter, I love what he
39:58
did. Okay, but now what? Now what?
40:00
What are we doing? Like, who's
40:02
ringing the alarm? This
40:04
stuff is horrific. I
40:07
mean, it's, and girl,
40:09
like, who's doing something? Well,
40:11
here's the problem. The
40:13
Hague. tried this with Bibi
40:15
Netanyahu, who is now
40:17
a war criminal. According to
40:19
international law, he's been
40:21
adjudicated. South Africa brought him
40:23
to the Hague, and
40:25
they went through an entire trial
40:28
in which lawyers from Ireland and
40:30
South Africa and others went through
40:32
what they have said is apartheid
40:34
in the occupied territories in the
40:36
West Bank and Gaza, and what
40:38
they have called war crimes in
40:40
Gaza. And and they said yes,
40:43
that's true. He really is a
40:45
war criminal And you know what's
40:47
happened to him as a result
40:49
of that nothing nothing international law
40:51
is is all theoretical you can
40:53
So there are places BB Netanyahu
40:55
can't travel Because of the adjudication
40:58
of the of the international courts
41:00
of that what he and his
41:02
far -right wing religious zealot, you
41:04
know Cabal there have done to
41:06
Palestinians So there are
41:08
places he can't go but you know where
41:10
he can go the United States because Donald
41:12
Trump is his friend So what's happening is
41:14
all the autocrats are friends all the autocrats
41:16
are collecting together with the exception of Xi
41:19
Jinping who they all want to fight because
41:21
Let's just be clear china is about to
41:23
lead the world like china is gonna be
41:25
it's gonna be the china We had the
41:27
american century in the 20th century the 21st
41:29
century might be the chinese century because they
41:31
are on the up They are rising while
41:33
we are falling and i agree with you
41:35
that the in this case i think We're
41:37
gonna have to start to apply the same
41:39
principles to the united states that were once
41:41
applied to south africa Yeah, the only thing
41:43
that stopped South uh, you know elan must
41:46
home country and peter teal's home country and
41:48
david sacks home country The you know what
41:50
they call the paypal mafia. They came from
41:52
south africa white south africa Yeah, and the
41:54
only thing that put a stop to the
41:56
fascism in white south africa that was oppressing
41:58
You know 80 of the population being native
42:00
africans The only thing that stopped that oppression
42:02
and didn't even completely stop because they still
42:04
own almost no land in their own country the
42:07
only thing that stopped them
42:09
from being abused, beaten, arrested,
42:11
and harmed was an international
42:13
boycott, you know? And so
42:15
I think - So that's what I
42:17
think that it is, it's going
42:19
to, I mean, we're so quick as
42:21
a country to jump into everybody
42:23
else's business, right? And try,
42:26
you know, and we should
42:28
not in most of those
42:30
situations. But I do
42:32
think - there does need to be
42:34
beyond this whole tariffs, you know,
42:36
back and forth that's happening and okay,
42:38
we're going to take your products
42:40
off the shelves. I think it needs
42:42
to be bigger than that. You
42:44
know what I mean? But I don't
42:46
know if there's enough out. I
42:48
don't think that people see Americans as
42:50
suffering. You know what I mean?
42:53
They don't like, you know, you see
42:55
black people and we're at the
42:57
Grammys and we're some billionaires and you
42:59
know what I mean? So What's
43:01
whereas in South Africa, you know,
43:03
that wasn't the case. It was all
43:05
black people that were being oppressed
43:07
It was very clear but for us,
43:09
you know, how can we cry?
43:11
This is you know, we need help
43:14
When most of us look like
43:16
we're not suffering, but it's I don't
43:18
know I don't know what the
43:20
answer is because I think the problem
43:22
with the way the world is
43:24
constructed the whole, you know, Western um
43:26
the sort of agreement that was made
43:28
after world war two for the way
43:30
the world would work it was all
43:32
kind of an honor system just like
43:34
we're finding out that most of what's
43:37
in the constitution was an honor system
43:39
it just counted on people agreeing to
43:41
go by the law and agreeing to
43:43
abide by the constitution and it didn't
43:45
account for what would happen if somebody
43:47
just said i won't do that and
43:49
i think what we found out is
43:51
that if a president just decides i'm
43:53
not going to abide by the constitution
43:55
and he has enough I will say
43:57
partisan Republicans on the Supreme Court who
43:59
are much more interested in a Republican
44:01
being president and a Republican having Republican
44:03
and conservative policies than they are in
44:06
the Constitution, then there is really nothing
44:08
that can stop this person. And I
44:10
think that's what we've, you know, here's
44:12
the thing, you know, sometimes what they
44:14
say is that the way that God
44:16
teaches you a lesson is that he
44:18
gives you your heart's desire. And enough
44:20
Americans, their true heart's desire was Trump.
44:22
They wanted Trump, and they wanted not
44:24
just Trump, but they wanted unfiltered, unfettered
44:26
Trump. They wanted Trump with nobody standing
44:28
in his way. They wanted Trump with
44:30
nobody, with no deep state telling him
44:33
no. They wanted to see what it
44:35
would be like to have Trump be
44:37
Trump and literally do whatever he really
44:39
wanted. Well, this is what it looks
44:41
like, fam. This is what you wanted.
44:43
And those who either didn't vote or
44:45
voted for this, you're getting what you
44:47
asked for. And what you didn't understand
44:49
is that Trump didn't want that for
44:51
you. He wanted that for himself and
44:53
that he has this zeal for vengeance,
44:55
for remaking America in his own image,
44:57
for having the country serve him. He
45:00
wants the whole system to serve him.
45:02
So he can get rich. He
45:04
loves the power. And the power.
45:06
I don't even see the power.
45:08
All of it. I suspect that
45:10
he's not even making a lot
45:12
of these calls. He's just sitting
45:14
and eating McDonald's and watching TV
45:16
in the Oval Office while people
45:18
are like, hey, can we deport?
45:20
We should do this. And he's
45:22
like, yeah, OK. He's like, do
45:24
it. He doesn't care. I want
45:26
to sell my Trump coins. And
45:29
I just want to be the
45:31
president. I just want to be
45:34
powerful. I do
45:36
have to say. So
45:39
there's so many great comments here,
45:41
and I do want to get to
45:43
them. Somebody said that they've been
45:46
an OG, read this, read that fan.
45:48
The comments are just pouring in.
45:50
People are like, why should people around
45:52
the world help us at all? And
45:55
Shababe, I'm saying that right,
45:57
Shababe is saying that Corey
45:59
reminded us that the power
46:01
is in the people. And
46:03
Bonita Johnson said, no one
46:05
is coming to save us
46:08
like we have saved them
46:10
in the past. Yeah, but
46:12
what I am happy about
46:14
is that finally our girl
46:16
Kamala Kamala Harris vice president
46:18
Kamala Harris your mama home
46:20
y 'all y 'all better clean
46:22
up the kitchen mama mama
46:24
home So she was speaking
46:26
before a women's organization and
46:28
she said She's not going
46:30
anywhere and she will stay
46:32
politically active. I know there
46:34
are some rumors Hasn't been
46:36
confirmed by her that she's
46:39
thinking of running for the
46:41
governor of california I guess
46:43
the presidency is is off
46:45
the table if she's thinking
46:47
about that, but whatever, you
46:49
know, I've always said that
46:51
she and barack and Biden
46:53
were all telling us how
46:55
dangerous trump was going to
46:57
be and right because they
46:59
knew and he is and
47:01
so You know, even
47:03
though you didn't win, my feeling
47:05
is, hey, we still need you.
47:07
Stacey Abrams lost the governorship of
47:09
Georgia, but it's still very active
47:11
in politics. Yes, it's up to
47:13
Kamala to do that. You know,
47:15
I got a lot of pushback in our comments about
47:17
saying that. But now, now,
47:21
she's back. She
47:24
says she's not going anywhere and she
47:26
will stay politically active. So I'm excited about
47:28
that. Not only her, Barack Obama. who
47:31
really believes in not speaking out
47:33
about presidential politics when he's not
47:35
president because he believes there should
47:37
only be one president at a
47:39
time. I mean, respectfully, we
47:41
got to move on from that. But
47:44
he's spoken, he said that it's up
47:46
to all of us to fix this.
47:48
That's what I say, it's gonna take
47:50
us all. And he was saying, can
47:52
you imagine if he did as president
47:54
in the first 100 days what Trump
47:56
is doing now? And he said he's
47:58
mostly concerned about threats
48:00
to universities. And
48:04
he said that the universities,
48:06
like Columbia University did not do,
48:08
need to really push back
48:10
this administration. So I'm glad that
48:12
those two surfaced to be
48:14
a part of this. And I
48:16
would like to see more
48:18
from them, but everybody, I think
48:20
it's going to take, listen,
48:22
I'm all for resting and recovering.
48:25
But with what's going on, we got time
48:27
for that. And also, by the way,
48:29
the cowardice of these law firms that are
48:31
capitulating, these law firms that are being
48:33
sued by Trump and then saying, okay, we'll
48:36
give you $100 billion in free legal
48:38
advice. Really? You know, you've got these universities.
48:40
Columbia, to me, is the most cowardly
48:42
of all. Saying, oh my God, you're right.
48:44
We'll take all our students, deport them
48:46
all. If they even say the word Palestine
48:48
in a happy tone of voice, take
48:50
them away. Like, they're just literally, it's like
48:52
the cowardice when you have people like
48:54
Georgetown Law School who literally said, Yeah, be
48:56
gone. The guy who's the head of
48:58
Georgetown Law School, when they got an edict
49:01
saying that if they don't change all
49:03
their DEI policies, they'll never hire another Georgetown
49:05
law person for the federal government. He
49:07
said, beyond no. He
49:09
said, this
49:12
is white dude. He said, no, he's
49:14
not going there. So it's like some people
49:16
are having like, cojones and other people
49:18
are just being weak. And here's the thing.
49:21
You even have these all these tech
49:23
bros who put all this money into
49:25
Trump gave him a million dollars each
49:27
for his inaugural All were cuddled up
49:29
in the warm inaugural little ceremony while
49:32
all the real Trumpers were out in
49:34
a cold -ass chili stadium 20 miles away
49:36
or whatever They are getting nothing from
49:38
it. They're getting hose their tank their
49:40
stock is falling apple stocks in the
49:42
shitter He's destroying them and they're just
49:44
like I don't know what to do
49:47
Yeah, you don't know what to do
49:49
all the Wall Street guys are screaming
49:51
all the podcast bros are like. Oh
49:53
my god. He's making me poor He's
49:55
making me purr. I'm like, you know
49:57

Pass over Eric and Tom,

52:31

52:35

52:38

52:42
they replaced the Statue of Liberty
52:44
with a giant statue of
52:46
Donald Trump? Wasn't that wild? I
52:49
didn't see it. I wouldn't believe
52:51
it. crazy. It's crazy,
52:53
girl. then they got the hologram
52:55
of Trump in the sky. So everywhere you
52:57
go, he's still looking at you. It's like the
52:59
best thing when you go. It's like the
53:01
best thing. It's just up in the sky. Up
53:03
in the sky. Up there. And they don't
53:05
change the name of the country that Trump land
53:07
in. I don't know
53:09
why. Not America no more.
53:11
I don't know why we didn't
53:13
leave. I told you we
53:15
should have left but you know
53:18
America and went all the
53:20
way down to Mexico Listen Listen
53:22
You know if you don't
53:24
call it Gulf of America, they
53:26
send you to El Salvador
53:29
Listen, I got a bingo class.
53:31
We got I'm gonna go
53:33
do some bingo. I'm not worried
53:35
about me Yeah,
53:40
girl, but it's just just crazy
53:42
crazy crazy. I know we don't
53:44
have a lot of time left.
53:47
Yeah, but I want to kind
53:49
of talk about We have so
53:51
many hot topics to talk about
53:53
but you have a hard out
53:55
I don't know if we want
53:57
to talk about okay. We'll let
53:59
the people decide in the comments.
54:02
Okay. Y 'all want to talk about
54:04
the Jonathan Majors Kiki Palmer and
54:06
cancel culture situation. Do you
54:08
want to talk about Erica
54:10
Badu and her outfit that she
54:12
wore to the recent award,
54:14
Billboard Women in Music Award ceremony,
54:17
coupled with Felicia Rashad in the backlash
54:19
that she's getting for saying that, you
54:21
know, men don't want their women dressed
54:23
a certain kind of way. Yeah,
54:27
I think those are the two topics
54:29
that we're going to talk about. Oh,
54:31
and Mary J. Blige and
54:33
Ron Isley and Smokey Robinson.
54:35
And the question is, you
54:38
know, is there a point
54:40
where you need to stop
54:42
performing? Because people are criticizing
54:44
Mary J. Blige. She does
54:46
look like her feet hurt.
54:49
I mean, her feet probably do hurt. And being
54:51
able to pivot. So, OK, so what do we
54:53
got? Jonathan Majors, Eric Abadou or Mary J. Blige? Pick
54:57
one. Pick one. I
54:59
see majors, majors,
55:01
majors. And people are like,
55:03
what Kiki do? So
55:06
yeah, Kiki Palmer did an
55:08
interview with him. And when
55:10
she started promoting it, people
55:12
were pushing back like crazy.
55:14
And I'm getting, we're getting a
55:17
lot of Jonathan majors. So
55:19
we'll go with that one. People
55:21
say, Mary. Um, people say,
55:23
Mary, all right, Mary, Mary. I think she
55:25
needs to pivot a little bit and do
55:27
a little more. I think you
55:29
can, you know what? It's okay to wear
55:31
flats, Mary. Wear some sneakers. Girl,
55:33
be unplugged. Change it up. You ain't
55:35
got to do what you always did.
55:37
You know, I interviewed this guy years
55:39
ago about Whitney Houston back when she
55:42
was touring and her vocals were really
55:44
bad. And she's doing all these big.
55:46
That was a drug. She was a
55:48
vocal coach at a university. And I
55:50
love, I cried when she died. Oh,
55:52
I cried in her. But what he
55:54
said was that she needed to pivot.
55:56
He said she could have done smaller.
55:58
Stop it. She could have done smaller.
56:00
venues and she could have done a
56:03
more jazz version of a lot of
56:05
her songs instead of trying to hit
56:07
all the same notes and everything. She
56:09
could have just reimagined a lot of
56:11
the songs and just, you know, so
56:13
I think that, you know, based on
56:15
what I'm seeing from Mary J and
56:17
Ron Isley, like you need to pivot, you
56:20
know what mean? Even
56:22
at her worst, Whitney Houston
56:24
was the greatest, to me, the greatest
56:26
vocalist of her generation. Like she was so
56:29
genius and brilliant even when her
56:31
voice was cracking at worst. If
56:34
you ranked the greatest singers of
56:36
no, no, she definitely I agree
56:38
with that. But when she was
56:40
out there in these concerts doing
56:42
these that was because she was
56:44
having them life issues that I
56:46
mentioned before, which I'm not gonna
56:48
say again. Well, no, no, but
56:51
here's the thing, right? El Debar,
56:53
she has admitted. to drug use
56:55
over the years. Nothing happened to
56:57
his vocals. Charlie Wilson, right?
56:59
Who was abused drugs and
57:01
talks about it. Vocal strong
57:03
as ever. I don't know why this
57:06
happened to her. You know what
57:08
I mean? She was abusing her
57:10
body, but let's get to Jonathan Majors.
57:12
People don't ask for Jonathan Majors.
57:14
So Jonathan Majors was on a comeback.
57:16
He had a new movie coming
57:18
out and, you know, he had I
57:20
think laid low, you know, he
57:22
was with Megan Good or is still
57:24
with her and they've got married. Yeah,
57:27
they're married now. They's married now. So,
57:29
you know, they're together and that relationship, which
57:31
a lot of people suspect it was
57:33
a PR stunt. There was never any proof
57:36
of that. But now their husband and
57:38
wife. And just as
57:40
he was doing press
57:42
for this new movie, Rolling
57:44
Stone dropped an audio
57:46
recording of a conversation between
57:48
Jonathan Majors and his
57:50
ex, that white lady that
57:52
ended up taking him to court.
57:55
And they had a settlement
57:57
with that civil suit, but
57:59
he was found guilty of
58:01
assaulting her. you
58:04
know, he had like probation and had
58:06
to take some classes on abuse and
58:08
things like that, but on domestic abuse.
58:10
So now Rolling Stone comes out
58:13
with his audio and in the
58:15
audio, you can hear him saying
58:17
that he's having a conversation with
58:19
her saying that he did strangle
58:21
her. You know what
58:23
I mean? And he was like, you
58:25
know, I've never been, I aggressed you. Is
58:28
that a word? It might be, but
58:30
I was like, who talks like that?
58:32
Yes, I aggressed you. So
58:34
it was pretty bad because
58:36
he's admitting to this. And
58:38
I don't know the situation
58:41
with that recording. I don't
58:43
know if he knew he
58:45
was being recorded. I
58:49
don't know. But I just feel,
58:51
and people are asking whether or not
58:53
he should be canceled. So Kiki
58:55
Palmer, P .P. Kiki Palmer had him
58:57
on her or recorded an interview and
58:59
was going to have him as
59:01
a guest on her podcast. But there
59:03
was so much outcry from the
59:05
public that they didn't want to see
59:07
that from her, that we're
59:09
hearing. I haven't heard her
59:12
say anything, but I'm hearing reports
59:14
that she has now scrapped
59:16
the interview. And so
59:18
people look like there's this question about, should he
59:20
be canceled? And you all let us know
59:22
in the comments what you think. But
59:24
what do you think? Would you
59:26
have canceled the interview if you were Kiki
59:28
Palmer? It depends on what the interview
59:30
was like I mean to me the fact
59:32
that there's a whole new story in
59:34
Rolling Stone about it if she and I
59:36
you know I don't I've never heard
59:38
it I don't know and I don't know
59:40
how Journalistically she went at it if
59:42
she did a fan interview where it was
59:44
just about hey your new movie is
59:46
great Maybe I'd scrap it, but if she
59:48
actually asked him about it You know,
59:50
if she actually asked him about, you know,
59:52
if she did the journalistic duty of
59:54
asking him the questions that need to be
59:56
asked about that incident, I would actually
59:58
not scrap the interview. That's journalism. You, you,
1:00:00
I mean, our Kelly was interviewed in
1:00:02
the midst of all the horrible things that
1:00:04
he was doing. Gayle King, Robert, Robert,
1:00:07
Robert interviewed him. I remember that.
1:00:09
But that was an excellent and important
1:00:11
interview. You know, our friend
1:00:13
Toure has interviewed our Kelly and asked
1:00:15
him directly about whether he was peeing
1:00:17
on a 14 year old girl. Like,
1:00:19
I mean, do you like young girls?
1:00:21
As journalists, we end up interviewing people
1:00:23
who are unpopular and who've done things
1:00:25
that are unpopular. And you don't stuff
1:00:27
those interviews simply because the people are
1:00:29
angry about that person's existence. You do
1:00:32
the interview. You know, I tried to
1:00:34
get an interview with Bill Cosby in
1:00:36
the midst of all of the allegations
1:00:38
against him. He just wouldn't do it.
1:00:40
But I was 100 % ready to
1:00:42
do that interview at the Grio back
1:00:44
when I was at the Grio. And
1:00:46
I would have 1000 % not deleted that
1:00:48
interview. I don't care what people say,
1:00:50
because that would have been journalism. So
1:00:52
no, I think if she asked him
1:00:54
the questions that need to be asked,
1:00:56
I would not have scrapped it. If
1:00:58
she didn't and the interview was just
1:01:00
a kiki, then yeah, I would probably
1:01:02
delete it. So so Danielle still learning
1:01:04
says what Joanne said BP 1787 said
1:01:06
he deserves a second chance What happened
1:01:08
to giving people grace? Based
1:01:11
on the preview it was
1:01:13
more of platforming Jonathan than
1:01:15
doing an interview is what Browder
1:01:17
is saying. And I think that was
1:01:20
the pushback. Um, somebody's saying
1:01:22
the problem was the domestic violence in her past.
1:01:24
I didn't know she had, um, right. And
1:01:26
it seems to me that like, and can we
1:01:28
just talk a little bit because the, and
1:01:30
it's, it's similar to the Chris Brown thing. People
1:01:32
ask this question about whether Chris Brown should
1:01:34
be permanently canceled, whether his career has been stunted.
1:01:36
He's still very popular. He sells a lot
1:01:38
of records, but he's still, when you say, well,
1:01:40
Chris Brown's going to be bubble, blah, people
1:01:42
get upset about it. But the reality is with
1:01:44
Jonathan Majors, There's more to the
1:01:46
story than him just being an aggressive black
1:01:48
man and hurting this white woman There was
1:01:50
a mutual issue of some mutuality to that
1:01:52
conflict and so I think on the video
1:01:54
that we saw video showed that they were
1:01:57
both aggressive with each other and I would
1:01:59
worry about in especially this country in America
1:02:01
in the country where we're deleting black history
1:02:03
in America where we're deleting our history is
1:02:05
that a lot of the time what you
1:02:07
would have is white women accusing black men
1:02:09
of violence or rape or someone accusing a
1:02:11
black and then getting lynched We live in
1:02:13
an Emmett Till country, you know, where people
1:02:16
shoot up the Emmett Till grave marker still
1:02:18
still put bullets in it because they're mad
1:02:20
that the boy was lynched because a white
1:02:22
woman lied about him. You know what I
1:02:24
mean? And people are still mad at his
1:02:26
dead ghost instead of at her and the
1:02:28
people who lynched him and the men who
1:02:30
lynched him. We live in a country
1:02:32
where race is a problem and and this
1:02:35
was a interracial relationship that seemed like they
1:02:37
were both super volatile with each other. And
1:02:39
I don't think it's fair to say He's
1:02:41
the only that it seemed like the two
1:02:43
of them had problems because you saw the
1:02:45
video of her chasing him down the street
1:02:47
I saw that and I was like So
1:02:49
I don't know what happened. I wasn't there.
1:02:51
I don't know either of these two people
1:02:53
I don't know either of them I have
1:02:55
no knowledge in the situation other than that
1:02:57
what from what I've seen and heard they
1:02:59
had a toxic relationship and to make him
1:03:01
The sole villain and to say that she
1:03:03
was completely not a part of the you
1:03:05
know, I don't know which we want to
1:03:07
believe women and you know, that's the the
1:03:09
attack is that we just believe women but
1:03:11
you know I don't think in all cases,
1:03:14
I think that's a dangerous thing. I don't think, listen,
1:03:16
I do think that, you know,
1:03:19
there's sexual assault abuse that happens
1:03:21
and it should be investigated, but
1:03:23
there are people who lie. There
1:03:25
are men who lie and there
1:03:28
are women who lie. And so
1:03:30
you just don't know until there
1:03:32
is an investigation into what happened.
1:03:34
I think what's unfortunate about Jonathan
1:03:36
majors and I really, I really
1:03:38
Enjoy his work. I mean lovecraft
1:03:40
country. Give me a break Like
1:03:42
the last man in San Francisco
1:03:44
like I love love love his
1:03:46
work Yeah, but it's unfortunate when
1:03:48
we move in a way when
1:03:50
we as black people get a
1:03:52
certain amount of Money and fame
1:03:54
and influence that we think that
1:03:56
we can move Like white people
1:03:58
move that we think that we
1:04:00
can do what they do It'll
1:04:03
never be that case in this
1:04:06
country. And we have to remember that.
1:04:08
I think a lot of us
1:04:10
just feel like we can just do
1:04:12
what we want to because we
1:04:14
have money and influence. And a lot
1:04:16
of times we do it in
1:04:18
front of or with white people. And
1:04:21
in this situation, he did it
1:04:23
with a white woman who was recording
1:04:25
him. That conversation was from years
1:04:27
ago because she stayed with him after
1:04:29
that conversation. We
1:04:31
don't know what that situation
1:04:33
was, you know, that
1:04:35
where they were having a conversation about,
1:04:37
was it actually him? Some people are
1:04:40
asking, was it AI? Was it really
1:04:42
his voice? And,
1:04:44
you know, we don't know all
1:04:46
the details. What I would love to
1:04:48
see is for Jonathan Majors, if
1:04:50
he wants his career back. I think
1:04:53
he has to Olivia Pope this.
1:04:55
I think it has to get
1:04:57
crisis person and he has to do
1:04:59
a sit -down interview and he has
1:05:01
to talk about it. You know
1:05:03
what I mean? I think I you
1:05:05
know, I think that he has
1:05:07
to do that work if he
1:05:10
wants to have a career and he
1:05:12
has to address what was what
1:05:14
was the situation because I do agree
1:05:16
it is never I mean, I
1:05:18
don't The fact that he on
1:05:20
this recording, if it's him is saying
1:05:22
agreeing that he strangled this woman.
1:05:25
Yeah, you gotta address that. It's a
1:05:27
bad look, right? Yeah, it's a
1:05:29
bad thing. It's a horrific thing. And
1:05:31
for him to come back from
1:05:33
that, I think he has to
1:05:35
do the work. But people need to
1:05:37
remember, you know, you get
1:05:40
this money, look at Puffy, you out here
1:05:42
having these parties, you out here
1:05:44
doing all, you know, all
1:05:46
kinds of I
1:05:54
mean, you know, I think people
1:05:56
feel like they're invincible once they reach
1:05:58
a certain level of fame, particularly
1:06:00
if it's like white famous, but not
1:06:02
even that. If people are, you
1:06:04
know, black people are very famous, they
1:06:06
start to move in a certain
1:06:08
way. And I'm like, you've got to
1:06:10
be careful how you move and
1:06:13
who you move with. And by the
1:06:15
way, Bill Cosby for 40 years
1:06:17
allegedly doing this with mainly white women,
1:06:19
drugging them allegedly and went to
1:06:21
jail for and then got let out
1:06:23
based on, I guess, some sort
1:06:25
of technicality. You've got R. Kelly. You've
1:06:27
got Mike Tyson with the issues he had
1:06:29
back in the day. You've got obviously the Chris
1:06:31
Browns. These are not all the same. I'm
1:06:33
not trying to lump them all together. Diddy, now
1:06:36
you've got this with Jonathan Majors
1:06:38
and Will Smith, the slap her around
1:06:40
the world. these brothers have
1:06:42
to realize that being famous,
1:06:44
and like you said, being
1:06:46
white famous in America, you
1:06:49
can be as famous as you want and as rich as you want. You're still black. And
1:06:52
you're still, and you're much more likely
1:06:54
to go to, to, to, to be, black people
1:06:57
are more likely to be prosecuted just for
1:06:59
having weed. than white people who also have feet.
1:07:01
If both a white man and a black
1:07:03
man both are found in possession of drugs, the
1:07:05
black man is more likely to go to
1:07:07
jail for it. That can white people commit crimes
1:07:09
at the same rates. Everyone's equal. There's no,
1:07:11
you know, race is a construct, but you're just
1:07:13
more in the spotlight. And so I think,
1:07:15
like you said, people need to be a lot
1:07:17
more judicious about the things they're doing, especially
1:07:20
if you're a public -facing person. You don't have
1:07:22
the right to just go ahead and do whatever
1:07:24
you want to people. And I
1:07:26
don't think men in general need to think of, you don't have the right
1:07:28
to just do whatever you want. You're going to
1:07:30
pay for it. And especially you, a brother, you're going
1:07:32
to pay for it. It may be now or
1:07:34
maybe later. So you need to think twice before you
1:07:36
do some crazy shit because you're going to pay
1:07:38
for it. Because the
1:07:40
cancellation is underway. I don't know
1:07:42
how he recovers from this. And so
1:07:44
I think if he wants his
1:07:46
career back on track, I think he
1:07:48
has to do an interview. And
1:07:50
a lot of D Jones is saying
1:07:52
maybe Gail King can interview him.
1:07:54
Juliet Edwards says, Jackie, let Joy talk.
1:07:56
You keep cutting her off. Juliet,
1:07:58
let me address this. We
1:08:01
are friends. We cut
1:08:03
each other off. It's how we do.
1:08:05
And if you don't like it, maybe it's
1:08:07
what we do. is what we do.
1:08:09
We cut each other off. We've been friends
1:08:11
for a long time. So please
1:08:13
don't come in here with that mess. Don't
1:08:16
come in here with that mess. You can get the hell
1:08:18
out. People
1:08:20
are moving forward and our backwards says
1:08:22
he should be given a second chance.
1:08:24
So my LLM says OJ Simpson. I
1:08:26
forgot to mention OJ. OJ
1:08:29
said, I could do
1:08:31
what I want to do. No, you can't do it.
1:08:33
Girl, you cannot.
1:08:35
You cannot. By
1:08:38
the way, this is my reminder of
1:08:40
telling everyone. I don't care what
1:08:42
anyone says. If I was on that
1:08:44
jury, OJ was getting acquitted by me. And
1:08:46
I watched every day of that trial. And
1:08:48
I'm not saying whether he did or not.
1:08:50
I'm just saying that his. That was Johnny
1:08:52
Cochran might be the greatest lawyer in American
1:08:54
history and they legit beat that prosecution.
1:08:56
That prosecution was wack. Girl, they
1:08:59
didn't see it coming. God
1:09:01
rest his soul. They lost that
1:09:03
kid. Shit, okay. Yeah, yeah. And
1:09:05
then OJ was still out there doing crazy
1:09:07
stuff. And then he still went out to make
1:09:09
it. He just out
1:09:11
there, rolling like. I'm just
1:09:14
kidding. You got the glide
1:09:16
of the history. This was the greatest
1:09:18
glide in the history of blinds. And you
1:09:20
come out there and still while it,
1:09:22
dude, you got away with the, the crime
1:09:24
that would have put you under the
1:09:26
jail. I mean, I don't know what he
1:09:28
was thinking. Okay. Now you have a
1:09:30
hard out. Yeah. I don't want, you have
1:09:32
a meeting at noon. I do. And
1:09:34
I was told you have a hard out.
1:09:36
And I know you love the talk,
1:09:38
talk, talk, talk, talk. I do too. but
1:09:40
we got to wrap it up because
1:09:42
I don't want you to I like I
1:09:44

Girl, I got, I'm trying to, I gotta
1:10:28
put it all in your place. This
1:10:30
is my issue with having so many platforms.
1:10:33
keeping them all up. It's a lot of work.
1:10:35
It is a lot of work. It is. But
1:10:37
with the website, they're really just kind of like
1:10:39
landing pages that just take you certain. So I'm
1:10:41
not having an update. It's not like a magazine. That's
1:10:44
what I'm doing over with Substack. And
1:10:46
that's why I love it so much.
1:10:48
Yes. Yeah. It's
1:10:50
a lot of weight. We work
1:10:52

get our coins trying to get
1:11:10
our little coins so we
1:11:12
can afford afford our arthritis medication.
1:11:15
Gotta afford to being gay. You know
1:11:18
the being gay species. Keep
1:11:20
our dentures. Keep our dentures
1:11:22
