It is a dark time in America, and as always the cruelty is the point. Since the fall of Roe v. Wade, new and renewed draconian laws have sprung up which all have the same goal: controlling and punishing women. IF he wins a second term, Joe Biden needs to have the political courage to expand the Supreme Court.

Speaker 1 (00:11):
Good morning, peeps, and welcome to woke f Daily with
me your girl, Daniel Moody recording from the home Bunker. Folks,
I am a bit unwealth and have been for the
last week. I've had allergies and a cold that has
turned into pink eye, which I had once as a
child and now have. So if you're watching this video
(00:34):
and you're like, something doesn't seem right, that's the thing
that doesn't seem right. But thankfully it's not painful, and
I am hopefully on the mend from all of the above.
Things that out of the way, Let's talk today about
the Supreme Court on this fucking Friday, because I do
not have a list of topics, but I have a
(00:54):
list of things that I fucking hate about this Supreme Court. First,
all this week the Supreme Court has been busy showing
us exactly how little they care about women and people
with uteruses as actual people. Apparently, according to Alito, women
are nothing more than incubators, right, so who cares if
(01:17):
they die during childbirth? Who cares if they need emergency
medical attention? Because Alito, who apparently went to medical school
and law school. Oh that's right, No, he didn't he
just went to law school, fancies himself playing a doctor
in the courtroom and wanting to talk about, well, what
really constitutes an emergency. I will say this, I have
(01:40):
never given birth, and I've never been pregnant. I have
had friends and family members that have been, and I
never really understood until my true adult years, over the
last couple of years of my friends giving birth, just
(02:02):
how fucking complicated and how serious pregnancy and labor are,
and that they have said often that a woman is
never closer to death than when she is giving birth.
(02:22):
And why is that? Well, because, aside from apparently the
Hallmark movies and Disney, which is where it seems like
the male justices on the court, the five male justices
on the Court have gotten their medical degrees from child birth.
And pregnancy is not like a movie. It's not neat
(02:46):
and clean. It is in a lot of ways honestly horrific. Right.
There's a lot of blood, a lot of guts, a
lot of excrement. There is a lot of shit literally
and figuratively that happens during childbirth. And to be a
(03:08):
woman and a person with the uterists who comes in
for an emergency, and this is the case that is
being heard before the Supreme Court. Right now, something is wrong.
Do you know what I'm saying? Because this is not
about the choice of becoming a parent or not. This
(03:29):
is about a person who is already in their pregnancy,
far along in their pregnancy, but is experiencing an emergency,
which unfortunately happens a lot, right, and to go into
an emergency room. And what we have heard are stories
(03:51):
of people being turned away, pregnant people being turned away
because the hospital doesn't want to be held liable so
you're on your own, or doctors deciding trying to figure
out and be on the phone with their lawyers about
how long a person has to be in an emergency situation,
(04:16):
whether that be bleeding out, losing oxygen for them to
be able to proceed with an abortion to save the
life of the mother. Right, it is wild to me
to listen to these justices is particularly the five male justices,
(04:42):
care not one single solitary fucking ounce about women. And
I got to tell you, you know, there was a
meme that was going around on Instagram that I saw
and it was a white woman who I think I
married a man from I can't remember a country, but
(05:04):
he's not wasn't from the United States. And he said,
you know, before I came to the United States, all
of the news and the headlines and all of these
things would make me believe that America it's like this
glorious place for women, right like, look at women in power,
look at CEOs, look at you know, all these advancements
(05:26):
that women have had. And then she said her husband
came here and realized that America hates women, and they do.
And he's just like every single policy around pregnancy, around
maternal care, around you know, what women can and can't
(05:48):
do is extraordinary. And that's what this all boils down to.
I think that when you were looking at this Idaho case,
which we all know is going to have extraordinary ripple
(06:09):
effects outside of Idaho, this isn't really about Idaho. This
is about the United States as a whole. It is
about the safety and the well being of women. And
the fact is that in this country we don't care
about women. And it's not even that we don't care
(06:32):
about women. I actually think this country hates women. And
I think that what these justices and the Republican Party
are doing is punishing women for having made and having
had the audacity to make any advancements inside of this
(06:54):
patriarchical society. To me, that's the only thing that makes sense,
because we have modern science, we're an industrialized nation. Before
modern science and modern medicine, more than half of the
(07:17):
women that would give birth would die. And the fact
that these men are not only willing and able, but
they're cheering on the ability to drag women back to
the nineteenth century like they did in Arizona. Even though
(07:41):
most recently now the Democrats with a slim majority and
a few handful of Republicans that have voted to overturn
the eighteen sixty four piece of legislation that acts as
an abortion ban in that state. It still has to
go through the Senate. But they were cheering the Republicans
when they passed this. This is not about feigning ignorance,
(08:08):
like you don't know the danger that you're causing. You
do know. People are telling you. The victims of these
laws in these red states are testifying, and they are
telling you what they have been put through. That women
who wanted to be mothers and had emergency situations, and
(08:29):
because they did not receive the care that they needed,
were then forced into unthinkable situations and are now infertile.
So the state that is supposedly pro life robbed them
of the ability to become parents, the very thing that
(08:52):
they say that they want, but only on their terms
and in their way. So cruelty really is the point.
Punishment is the point. And you don't do that to
people that you don't hate, right. You supposedly punish criminals,
people who break the law. Right. So this system that
(09:20):
is being set up, if you are a woman and
living in Idaho and you happen to be pregnant right now,
God be with you, you know, And I mean that
like literally because six women, as they were hearing this
(09:40):
case before the Supreme Court, six women had to be
airlifted to other states to receive the abortions that they needed.
This is not like a planned cesarean right, where like,
oh everything as well, but at two o'clock today, I'm
gonna have a baby. These are emergency situations where every
(10:03):
second is precious, is the difference between life and death,
and you're forcing an unnecessarily risky and dangerous situation for
no other reason than because you believe in life. How
does that even make sense? How does that hypocrisy even stand.
(10:27):
But that's where we are. And so I look at
this unelected body of these nine black robes that are
reigning over America right now and turning it into one
of the most dangerous places in the world to be
a pregnant person. And people will say, well, why can't
(10:49):
they just go to another state? Well, here's the thing, Oh,
I don't know between flights, hotels, you know, like does
your insurance? Is your insurance covered this? That? And the
other thing, like the unnecessary economic burden that is being
(11:09):
placed on people. A doctor was interviewed this week on
Joy Reach show on MSNBC who left Idaho, and you know,
she was asked very clearly, like is it safe to
be a doctor there in obgyn somebody specializing in maternal
(11:36):
health and care? She said, no, That's why I left.
I wanted to provide care to people, particularly vulnerable populations
that needed it. And now I'm in a situation where
if I provide the kind of care that people need,
particularly in these emergency situations, I could go to jail.
(11:59):
Who can do their job under that kind of duress,
is what she asked. You can't possibly make the necessary
decisions that doctors have to make in an instant and
make them clear when you're going to be worried about
(12:23):
whether or not you're going to jail. I haven't lived
through other times. I wasn't alive in the nineteen sixties,
but I can honestly say from the history that I've
read and studied, I can't think of a darker time
(12:45):
in America than right now. And the reason why I
say that is not because of the times when you know,
literally lynchings were happening every single day. So I'm not
talking about it in terms of violence, but I'm talking
about it in terms of ideological violence and danger that
(13:08):
where we are currently and where we are headed is
so backwards and so dangerous for so many people other
than straight cis rich white men, that I don't know
if America continues on this path, if it survives. And
(13:32):
that is just me being honest, because you know, I
say this as for those you know, you listen to me,
you follow me on social media, and I've said that, like,
the courts are not going to save us from Donald Trump.
But it's the insidious nature and the cancer of trump
Ism that to me is a bigger problem than the
(13:53):
man himself. Now, that doesn't mean that I'm saying, like,
don't vote in November for Biden. I am saying vote
for Biden, even given all of the ways that many
people are going to have to hold their nose and
swallow their pride and their integrity to do so. Because
the only way that these decisions are not you know,
these state by state draconian decisions have not taken hold
(14:15):
nationwide is because the fact that we have a Democrat
as President of the United States right now that changes.
Then all that's are off. There will be no safe space,
there will be no safe space to go. And so
I really am desperately worried and concerned about the future
(14:38):
of this country. As I know that many of you
who listen and DM and you know, and tweet and
all of these things you know, do and say. Is
that like, you're not alone in your fear, because listening
to these Supreme Court justices and their line of questioning
just shows you how truly depraved and cruel they really are.
(15:02):
And the fact is is that if we do not
you know, if Biden in a second term doesn't have
the courage, the moral courage to do a lot of things.
But the moral courage to expand the court, then we
are fucked as a country. And you know, you have
(15:25):
also the presidential immunity case that these justices are deciding,
like you know, apparently you know, the other forty four
presidents that were able to operate before Donald Trump became president, like,
we're able to do so without full immunity because they
weren't criminals. And so instead of the Supreme Court just
(15:46):
taking the lower court's decision and saying, yeah, nowhere in
the constitution, like, nor are we even going to open
up Pandora's boxing this way, because somebody far worse than
Donald Trump, if you can even imagine what far worse
would be, will abuse any bit of the immunity that
they had. So that means that if you're president of
the United States and Donald Trump's world, and you decide
(16:07):
to kill the first Lady of the United States, you
can do so. You could do it in the fucking
White House, You can do it in the residence. Who
going to stop you? Right, you have somebody that's running
against you for office and you don't like that person,
you could kill them. Who's going to stop you? Because
(16:29):
according to Donald Trump's attorneys, you would need to be
impeached in both the House and the Senate, and then
that would still need to go to court to decide
whether or not you had the ability to commit murder.
So like, these justices right now are literally playing with
people's lives and they don't care. And so the callousness
(16:54):
that is being shown, the cruelty, and the depravity that
is being shown, is really at the core of the
Republican Party. I will close with this today, which is
that for those people who continue to say, like I'm
not gonna be able to stomach voting for Joe Biden,
(17:15):
and I'm not going to vote for Joe Biden, then
just like, go find yourself the red hat that says
make America great again and put it on because under
a Trump regime you will be required to do so.
Because if you are not hailing mind Trump, then you're
(17:38):
gonna be sent off. So make your decisions now, not
based on who you like. Make your decisions now on
what kind of fucking country you want to live in
or the ability to at least fight for the one
that you want to live in. Because if you're seeing
what is happening at these college campuses right now and
you're watching them call in and the fucking national not
(18:03):
the National Guard, but the state troopers and the State
guards and all of these things and violently break up
what is a largely peaceful protest of young people saying
we don't want our tuition dollars to go to fund
a genocide. And you're thinking, like, oh, those kids should
(18:25):
just go. But first of all, you know, let us
always remember that it is young people, whether it was
in the civil rights movement, the labor movement, the women's movement,
it is young people that are always on the fucking
front lines and they're always right. History always shows that
when young people are the ones that are rising up
about an issue right and the establishment is saying quiet down, you,
(18:49):
you know, know, good doers and like what have you,
that the establishment turns out to be fucking wrong. Donald
Trump wanted the ability to shoot protesters outside of Lafayette
Square following the killing of George Floyd. It was General
(19:09):
Millie that said, you can't do that. That's against the law.
If Donald Trump has presidential immunity, and he then now
orders that you clear this area of these hooligans, and
I don't care who lives or dies, and there's no
(19:31):
responsibility or accountability that is attached to that, and then
he has the ability to pardon all of the people
that take out his axe. Folks, that's what you will
be fucking sitting out of and deciding that you can't
stomach Joe Biden. So just be really fucking clear right
about the decisions that you're making. That's all I ask.
(19:59):
That is it for me today, Dear friends on Woke
app as always, power to the people and to all
the people. Power, get woke and stay woke as fuck.
