Speaker 1 (00:02):
A media.

Speaker 2 (00:04):
It's not so much that I'm in love with the
choices or the moves that are being made in as
much as it is I love the energy.

Speaker 1 (00:13):
Bring this energy. This is energy I'm talking about.

Speaker 2 (00:16):
The Collective Nations of Africa are demanding that we redo
all these maps because I don't think y'all understand how
big Africa is. They like these projections, make y'all think
y'all as big as US. I like that energy. Get
your perspective right. They like all of the United States, Europe, China, Australia,

(00:42):
they all fit inside India. It all fits inside Africa.
Stop playing with us. Greenland ain't the same size as US.
Greenland smaller than the Congo. Don't let these maps projections
fool you. Stop playing with me.

Speaker 1 (01:00):
I love that energy. This is the energy we've been
waiting for us.

Speaker 2 (01:04):
Who hang out I you know I'm saying over here
on it left, you know, left coast, West coast. You
know obviously, you know your boy over here gets a
little irritated with the liberal of it all. You feel me,
I am not at all a pacifist. While I love peace,
I'm not a pacifist. Peace often has to be forced

(01:26):
upon a colonizer because we in fact did not make
the rules. But I tell you what, I ain't started,
but I'm gonna finish it. That's listen. I don't know
what to tell you. I talk like we talk like Kendrick.
Sometimes I am not with the Kumbaya shit. I'm swimming
over in the anarchsis waters because I'm just not convinced

(01:48):
we've ever figured out a system, at least in the
modern era, where you just put a single dude in
charge and it works out.

Speaker 1 (01:54):
I'm just saying, but this is what we got. We
ain't make the rules.

Speaker 2 (02:00):
But since this is the play that y'all running, I'm
gonna need my Democratic Party to keep this energy taping
with me. Y'all.

Speaker 1 (02:25):
Now here's the thing.

Speaker 2 (02:27):
At some point, we gotta talk about Gavin Newsom and
the moves he's making, the person that's actually running that
social media as a Latina lady who out there like
writing writing autum tweets for him, which is funny, you know,
so shout out through Latin I's But I'm probably gonna
do a full episode about this redistricting in Cali because

(02:47):
it's like, again, you know, nobody wanted to do this.
Sometimes you forced into a corner to do stuff that
you really don't want to do. But this is a
situation you're getting put into. That's not what I'm talking
to talk about right now. I will talk about it,
But what I like is the energy We've been sitting
around here like like, ay, opposition Party do some shit.

(03:08):
You know what I'm saying, Like, like what y'all gonna
who bringing Who gonna bring the energy?

Speaker 1 (03:14):
Who gonna set it off?

Speaker 2 (03:16):
The first show I ever did on the iHeart Network
for hood politics, besides just like Cram Session and Reintroducing
myself was the first substance of one was right after
the January sixth riots and.

Speaker 1 (03:32):
The title was s T f U y A g
D S Shut the fuck up. You ain't gonna do shit.

Speaker 2 (03:46):
And the lesson you learn is when somebody do something outlandish,
maybe just like we talked about it before, maybe by
itself you could probably you could probably be mature, you
could probably let us slide.

Speaker 1 (03:57):
It is what it is. You figure out your tactics, right.

Speaker 2 (04:00):
But the lesson that this person that's out of pocket
learns is that you ain't gonna do shit.

Speaker 1 (04:05):
So then they just gonna keep pushing the line on you.

Speaker 2 (04:07):
And as I attempted to articulate this week in the show,
is that what like you're once you're off the cliff
And in this situation you got somebody like Trump mouthing
off the way he is being mad about the woke
shit all the way to the Smithsonian. This nigga is
saying talking about slavery, really wasn't that bad?

Speaker 1 (04:29):
Okay?

Speaker 2 (04:30):
Fam somebody should have slapped the taste out of your
mouth a long time ago.

Speaker 1 (04:34):
Is this not?

Speaker 2 (04:36):
This is what happens when you don't do shit. At
some point you gotta be like you got me fucked up? Okay?
You could do all things through Christ except play with me.
You not keep you not finna keep playing in my face.
I don't like to move like this, but I tell
you what, I slapped the taste out of your mouth.

(04:57):
You keep playing with me like this? This is the
inner that we've been waiting on. And of course who
gonna lead the charge?

Speaker 1 (05:10):
Black women?

Speaker 2 (05:12):
All right, sweet mother sisterhood. Nicole Collier, along with the
rest of the Democratic UH Congress members in the state
of Texas, once Greg avicton them in a in a
in a in a Republican Party out there just bent

(05:33):
over and did whatever Trump told him to do. Like
Super out Loud was just like, hey, look, we're gonna
change the map just so that we can get five
extra seats. That's what we're doing, doing the jerry mandering thing.
Like we we did an episode on jerry mandering that
you guys.

Speaker 1 (05:48):
Have heard already. Anyway, the way to.

Speaker 2 (05:54):
At least stall that in as best way as you
can is to just leave, right, So the Democratic Party,
the elected officials of Democrats left. Now at least it's
something now, it's not coward like like the you know
some of the some of the news media was trying
to say, which was just like, ah, you guys are
running from a fight. I'm like, no, this is actually strategy, right,

(06:16):
I'm with it. You know, jerry mandering is a thing
that happens all the time. Like I said, I don't
have to rehash that. You already know what that is.
That's not the energy, but the beginning of the energy
was then willing to leave. Right then there's like warrants
for their arrest from the state the place that they go.
Don't have to send them back, right because these are

(06:37):
civil things.

Speaker 1 (06:39):
But look, you.

Speaker 2 (06:42):
Losing five hundred and six hundred dollars a day, right, eventually,
if your bread is real long, you could do it.
But it's not like you can use you know, funds
from Like you can't raise money off the shit, you
know what I'm saying. Like, so at some point you
got to go back to work. You got a family,
you got it this. You can only camp out away
for so long, right, you know, I know when I

(07:03):
was a kid, you know, when you get home, you finish,
get a woman, you feel me. Uh, you can only
stay out the house for so long. But the Republicans
ain't they mom and daddy. They they colleagues. So anyway,
so they come back home, they go to the report
to work, to do whatever they got to do. Now,

(07:23):
since this was some sort of like civil citizens arrest,
they were asked to come back to the office and
stay there.

Speaker 1 (07:32):
Now.

Speaker 2 (07:32):
When I say stay there, what they said was, hey, listen,
I need you. The Republicans, like like your coworkers, was like, hey,
I need you to sign this document that says that
you're gonna come back tomorrow. Like you can't leave here
unless you promised me written on this document. Basically, like
you are in our custody since you broke the law

(07:54):
by going to do the culture thing and try to
and try to like run to the other state. But
since you back, I don't know if you're gonna leave again.
So sign this document saying that you're gonna come back.
So this is basically like your permission slip to go home,
Like I'm giving you a hall pass as long as
you come back.

Speaker 1 (08:10):
Now.

Speaker 2 (08:11):
Most of the people were like, whatever, nigga, give me
this dumb ass paper. Okay, I'm coming back, Like why
you think we hear right now?

Speaker 1 (08:18):
This is stupid.

Speaker 2 (08:19):
However, on my newest record, though your arms are too
short to box with God, I got a song.

Speaker 1 (08:25):
It's a poem. It's called what I look Like.

Speaker 2 (08:28):
What I look like is a rhetorical question among a blackness, right,
And there's a line in that poem that I say
that I look like, asking what I look like if
I ain't like what you just said, if what you
just said ain't sit right. So for me, the energy

(08:49):
you supposed to bring at this moment is now what
I look like? You think I'm gonna sign your little
funky little Microsoft word document.

Speaker 1 (08:58):
Nigga, who are you right?

Speaker 2 (09:03):
Like boy, you think listen you telling me I cannot
go home? Am I under arrest? Under citizens arrest? Are
you listen here? Joe Joe from accounting, You can't hold me.
I do what the hell I want to do? They
got they locked the doors y'all the Republicans was like, no,

(09:27):
you can't go leaning over this lady, like on some
gangster stuff like my nigga where you think you going?
But it wasn't so gangster as much as it felt
a little mold, like show me your papers, boy vibes.
So she said, listen, you got me all the way

(09:48):
fucked up. You think I'm gonna sign this paper for you.
I'm already at work. I'm here to do what I'm saying.
You saying I can't leave unless I sign this paper.
Let me call my boot to telling this s in
my bond. You listen, you got me. You gonna stop
playing in my face? You think you think I'm gonna

(10:09):
sign your paper? You ever heard of habeas corpus? Now,
according to Christy Gnome, who got no idea what she
talking about, uh, habeas corpus is the president's right to
remove people from from the country, to which everyone who
took government and econ in high school said, Nigga, what no, ma'am.

(10:37):
Habeas corpus is.

Speaker 1 (10:40):
Your human right.

Speaker 2 (10:42):
The government is not allowed to hold somebody without a
public reason. You can't just round up people and be
like you here because I want you here. You telling
me I'm here because you afraid I might leave. Nigga,
You're not a cop. You are a colleague, but you
know what, I'm a file thiss. Hey be as corpus

(11:03):
and I'm gonna put my bonnet on and go to sleep.
You gonna stop playing with me. You want to be petty,
Let's be petty now. The reason why I bring this
up on a tap in and then not a whole
episode is because it's not so much that I know
or understand the effectiveness of this particular move. That's not

(11:23):
the point for me. The point for me on this
tap in is, Yo, I need y'all to stay dangerous. Okay,
stop being stop being safe for these people especially, I
hope the rest of our elected officials who are in
the opposition party could learn something from this.

Speaker 1 (11:39):
Don't be safe. I need you to stay dangerous.

Speaker 2 (11:43):
When we listen this this the la in me a
fam la is dangerous because when the ice vans came
out here to unmarked vans, you know what LA was doing.
The tow trucks was just towing them. Nigga, we not safe.
You in an unmarked car and you parking illegally. I'm
told on your truck. I don't care who sent you,
call him, We're not safe. Do y'all understand how easy

(12:05):
you got off by the fact that we only burnt
down one way mo and it was only a waimo.
Y'all think listen, you got off easy. What we are
teaching them the powers that be is we are not
scared of you. If you from LA and you survived
the eighties and nineties, early two thousands, I'm not scared

(12:26):
of you.

Speaker 1 (12:27):
We pit the worst.

Speaker 2 (12:29):
So Nicole Collier is not my elected official. I don't
even live in Texas. Do I agree with the tactic
that Gavin Newsen is doing.

Speaker 1 (12:39):
I think I still think he a cornball, But I
love the energy.

Speaker 2 (12:44):
This is the energy I ask for the rest of
the opposition party.

Speaker 1 (12:51):
Just get that stop playing with me energy. I like,
I don't.

Speaker 2 (12:55):
I don't know if the tactics will work, like I said,
but this is what I need to see use this
pod to incentifize. I think there are some elected officials
that listen to my show. Use this as your green light.
I know it's kind of not the same. It's actually
a lot not the same, but it's the energy we need.
I remember when we was acting up and you know,

(13:20):
kids would suggest. You know sometimes you know when kids
be like, look, you know you're being mean. I'm gonna
call protective services. You know what I'm saying, especially when
we was young, because we got spankings.

Speaker 1 (13:30):
Like I'll we are first generation gentle parents, like my
parents were not gentle.

Speaker 2 (13:38):
Uh So we got wolves, Granny Gables Woven's, Auntie Gables Woven's,
we got wovens. But if you would ever suggest, you
know what I'm saying, like, oh, I'm anna call the police,
say you beat me, they would be like.

Speaker 1 (13:51):
Call them.

Speaker 2 (13:53):
I'm waiting right here. I wait on the curve, but
it's gonna take a minute for them to get here.
You know what that means. That means Grandma dangerous. That
means you're gonna stop playing in her face.

Speaker 1 (14:07):
Now.

Speaker 2 (14:07):
Of course this ended up because I was about to
get hit. But the point I'm making is.

Speaker 1 (14:16):
Stay dangerous. My friends,
