David Hernandez (00:42):
Welcome to another episode of, as the
pokeball turns, where weinterview people about their
experience with Pokemon.
My name is David Hernandez.
So normally I do my best to keeppolitics out of this podcast.
I've always tried my best toprovide information,
entertainment.
and hopefully nostalgic Pokemoninterviews.
(01:03):
However, this episode is notgoing to be that, if you haven't
even noticed by the title.
But don't worry, Friday'sepisode is going to be back to
the status quo.
But I needed to talk about thisbecause I think it's important.
as you know, the U.
S.
has a new president in town, andit's being felt across the
states.
(01:24):
And some could say it's probablybeing felt across the world,
depending on where you're at.
You either like it, you eitherhate it, or simply don't care.
And for me, I do care.
And I don't like it.
And I want to talk about why.
Not as a way to persuade you.
I'm not here to change yourthoughts, I'm not here to really
influence you in that way.
(01:45):
I'm not here to talk trash.
I'm not a political expert or apundit.
That's just not my jam.
But, as I've always done with myPokemon interviews, I want to
ask a question.
And you're going to be the oneto ask it too.
But before we even get to thequestion I want to share a
little bit behind the scenes.
For those who don't know, I havea bachelor's degree in social
(02:07):
work.
Because I always had the idea ofwanting to help people I've
always had this idea of I'vewanted to help people.
I didn't think about the pay.
My economics teacher tried towarn me and sorry, mysteries.
I didn't listen, but that's whatI went into going to want to do.
You know, I used to work in thecourts with both family and
(02:27):
criminal.
I used to work and stillactually do work with mental
health, uh, with IDD andpersonality disorders.
You think schizophrenia, bipolarautism, you know, the whole nine
yards, really.
I've done refugee.
Asylee services where I helpeddisplaced families.
From war and persecution findhomes here.
You know, more recently isreally just an Afghan
(02:49):
evacuation.
You know, when we pulled out, Ihelped with the Cuban crisis and
the famine they're going throughwhen they try to migrate over
here.
Cause you know, they don't haveany food and people are
obviously not happy about that.
And plus medication, it's awhole mess.
I'm not going to go into that.
And of course you can't forgetRussia, Ukraine conflict that's
been kind of going on.
They moved over here and.
(03:10):
I've also done homeless veteransthrough the HVRP grant, where I
helped veterans get connectedwith services for housing, for
the VA services, for employment,accessing benefits.
And I say all this to give anidea of where I come from,
because I think that's soimportant when we have these
conversations to where we haveto understand where each person
kind of comes from to be able tofind a connecting point.
(03:32):
I know I don't know it all.
I'll be the first to admit that.
I know there are always multiplesides to everything.
There's not even two sides toone coin anymore.
It's probably four or six atthis point.
But that's just my side.
for those who don't know, Dogeis trying to wipe out the money
in the grants.
The federal money.
The systems that are in place.
And they are there for a reason,and I think maybe we've either
(03:55):
not thought about it, or maybewe just don't know how to even
find out about it.
from my standpoint, I think it'sjust a lot of what's going on is
due to that lack of knowledgeand understanding on how these
systems really work.
They're slow as hell, don't getme wrong.
But they do work.
A good example.
Is back when Trump did anexecutive order and eventually
he even elaborated saying thatthey are not going to freeze or
(04:18):
cut any grants that directlyservice people.
The one problem with that isthat it doesn't exclude the
grants that pay staff who givethose services.
for those who don't know thosegrants.
That pay staff and that help,you know, put whatever, whatever
person you want in there arecompletely different.
you ever gone to a store andthere's like one checkout line.
(04:41):
That's kind of what's happeningnow.
While yes, you may not cutservices to people who need it.
You cut the people who couldprovide it.
if you know anybody who's innonprofits, they're freaking out
because they don't have themoney anymore.
They're having to make cuts.
They're having to send peoplehome.
They're having to reduceservices because the money's
(05:01):
been cut based on DOJA'sevaluation.
that's why the VA, the VeteransAdministration, Had to
drastically cut staffing anddidn't transfer that money over
into the account that serviceveterans.
Otherwise they lose it.
And it's not just the VA.
It's just, it's a lot of otherorganizations that are having to
do that.
And if you don't believe me, goask anybody, like call up your
(05:24):
nonprofit and see like, Hey, howare these affecting you?
And I'm pretty sure they might,I don't know how detailed they
would get into, but.
I'm pretty sure you get an ideaby that, but that's the question
though.
It's like, how many people knowthat?
How many of you know that?
I'm not sure.
I really don't know.
That's why I want to talk aboutthis, now knowing that funding
for both the staff who providethe services.
(05:46):
As well as the funding for theservices that go to, again, Is
that what we want?
back in, uh, 2013, around thattime, I remember there was a lot
of conflict to where veteranswere having to waste, months and
months.
Because there just wasn't enoughstaffing.
There are more people who needthe services than there are
(06:06):
people who can provide itsometimes.
You know, if you ever read up onthe farmers and what they're
kind of going through A lot ofthem are kind of scared of going
bankrupt because their fundinghas been taken away.
And you know, farmers send moneyto our grocery stores by the
way, so stay tuned for that.
I'm not an expert on that, so.
We'll find out together,ultimately, my question is what
do we want as Americans, theycame in and they promised that
(06:29):
we're going to give the moneyback to the people But is it
going to be kind of worth itknowing that some of these
programs and some of theseservices are going to go away,
if you ever visit their website,doge.
You know, they're currentlygoing through the funding and
they've currently saved us 8,497, 568, 305 as of February
(06:51):
19th, 2025.
And it's on their website.
So I got that total by adding upall the numbers in their savings
below the wall receipts.
And then after you divided bythe population of the U.
S.
Which I decided to round downbecause, you know, it's an
estimate and I didn't want it tobe, inaccurate you get a savings
of 25 per every person.
Hey, 25 guys.
(07:12):
Yeah.
25 bucks.
We, we did it.
I mean, they're not done, but weall got 25 saved.
But wait, wait, wait, wait, holdon.
I know some of y'all thinking,what about the kids?
What about the immigrants?
What about the people who don'tput money into this program?
Obviously it's gotta be a littlebit more, right?
I got you.
I got you.
I did this math.
Trust me.
I did this just in case I wantedto make sure I'm thorough.
(07:34):
So on average, there's like 51million immigrants who are in
the U.
S.
And of course, 85 millionchildren, because you know,
they're too young to put taxesinto the And so if you take them
out from, again, the original340 million, you get 41 and 65
cents.
And that's assuming everyAmerican residing here, is
(07:55):
working pays the same amount.
and again, that assumes thateveryone's paying the same
amount.
You know, and I'll put the mathin the show notes and you can do
it yourself.
See, makes that way, you know,I'm not always lying.
No, do it yourself.
That's what I did.
I would encourage you.
Check my work.
at this point, I'm almost ableto buy a Switch game at this
point.
Hey, Pokemon Z8 is coming out.
Maybe, uh, I'll get enough forthat.
(08:16):
But going back to my questionthough, what do we want as
Americans?
What do we really want for eachother?
And what do we really want forthe future of this nation,
whether you're Republican orDemocrat, or maybe independent
or apathetic, wherever you fallon, we have all been at one
point of our lives that we'veneeded help.
some of us have lost jobs.
(08:36):
Some of us know what it's liketo have to work two, three jobs
just to get by.
Some of us knows what it's liketo not have food on the table.
Some of us knows what it's liketo not have medical care.
growing up for me, I had to walkaround my whole life.
I didn't have a car till I was26 and my original city didn't
believe in publictransportation.
They still don't to this day.
(08:57):
I know what it's like to nothave food.
I know what it's like to lose ajob.
To not have no food in myapartment, to face eviction, to
having to call the suicidecaught line because I'm battling
thoughts of just ending it atthat point.
I know what it's like to be downin the dumps.
And and when you turn to afamily who've always said that
(09:18):
they value your independence.
And that they said that youcould always come to them if you
ever needed anything.
And then the one time you do,and they look in you and I and
say, I'm just going to pray foryou.
I know what that's like.
And the only reason that I wasable to get out of that moment.
(09:39):
Was some of these programssometimes.
But let me ask you this.
Do you think that they know whatit's like?
Do you think they know what it'slike to not have food on the
table?
To not have medical care?
To not have transportation?
What do you think they reallyknow about a regular person's
(10:03):
life?
They're both trust fund babieswho were born into wealth.
I mean, unless you have multiplecommas in your bank account,
first off, why aren't you on myPatreon to get sick Pokemon
wristbands?
But secondly, how do we knowthat they have our best
interests at heart?
How do we know that thesedecisions are of really the best
(10:27):
American interest?
Last thing is this post by ElonMusk, who is, of course, I guess
part of Doge at this point,where he said on X, And you can
look it up, like I said,February 12th.
Why 90 percent of America lovesDoge.
And it's the meme to where, uh,the chick's just looking up.
I don't know who she is.
(10:48):
I know she's somebody famous.
I obviously don't know famouspeople that well.
But, it says, watching Trumpslash federal programs knowing
it doesn't affect you becauseyou're a member of the parasite
class.
And I know, Elon, he's a trollor jokester.
But is that something you reallyjoke about again, you know, the
federal money that they're goingthrough, it affects people's
(11:11):
lives.
It's not just waste.
Some of it, I'm sure there is,let's just be honest.
Like a lot of us could do bettertrying to manage our bank
account, but again, is thatsomething you really want to
joke about that day?
I learned that I'm just aparasite at the end of the day.
But, let's really break it down.
Let's really sit down and saywhat this means.
(11:33):
If you're autistic, you're amember of the parasite class.
If you have depression, you're amember of the parasite class.
If you have really anydisability, you're a member of
the parasite class.
If you're a veteran, you're partof the Parasite class.
I mean, that's what he said,right?
(11:54):
Joke or not, that's what heposted on X.
If you're a victim of domesticviolence, you're a member of the
Parasite class.
If you're a farmer, you're amember of the Parasite class.
If you're a senior citizen.
You're a member of the parasiteclass.
(12:17):
If you've ever stayed in ahomeless shelter, you're a
member of the parasite class.
If you're a small businessowner, you're a member of the
parasite class, but let's putwords.
Let's be real.
Let's put worse.
So that's what he said.
If you've ever been a victim ofnatural disaster, whether it be
(12:40):
a hurricane, the flooding.
Anything.
You're a member of the Parasiteclass.
If you've ever taken publictransit, you're a member of the
Parasite class.
If you've ever been in publicschools, congrats, you're a
member of the Parasite class.
You get the idea.
Again, my question that I havefor you.
(13:04):
What type of future do you want?
What do we want at the end ofthe day?
Do we really believe that theyhave our best interest in mind?
Even if it's too late to vote,it's never too late to make your
(13:24):
voice heard.
It's never too late to getinvolved within your community.
You know, some people, theydecide to protest.
Some people decide to contacttheir sander or house rep.
Some people like me decide tomake an entire podcast episode
about this.
Okay, Pikachu, uh, Jigglypuff,uh, Mewtwo, there, there's your
Pokemon references.
(13:45):
That's all I had.
You still got some Pokemon theday.
But I've always had this strongbelief, and I've always said
this, if you've ever talked tome personally, or even whether
it be through the podcast orjust here within the DFW
Metroplex, and it's even whatdrives the podcast now, I've
always believed, whether you'reRepublican, Democrat, apathetic,
(14:09):
whatever, that the community isalways going to be stronger when
we're all more involved.
Anyway, I just want to talkabout that.
I'm not going to bring it upanymore.
as I said, back to normalschedule on Friday.
But let's leave the episode on agood note.
We're in the middle of a hostilegovernment takeover.
(14:33):
I want to talk about it but I'vebeen late for work.
And if you're saying wait aminute who we have to stop this,
we have them but you didn't wantthat lady in office.
Na na na na na, hostilegovernment.
Na na na na na, takeover.
Na na na na na, hostilegovernment.
(14:57):
Oh Oh, wow, that we're a part ofa Nigerian Prince, damn.
Surprise, surprise, I ended upbeing a white man.
Oh, I just wanna know, what thehell do I do?
Probably drink, drink, drink.
And if you say, wait a minute,who we have to stop this?
(15:20):
We have one, but you didn't wantthat lady in the office.
Office, office, office.
Hostile government.

Metroplex, and it's even whatdrives the podcast now, I've
always believed, whether you'reRepublican, Democrat, apathetic,
