Speaker 1 (00:01):
The Practice Club. Please tell me why was I your
Donkey of the day. Hey, donkey today for Thursday, July
twenty two goes to forty six President of the United
States of America, Joe Biden. I don't care. I don't care.
I don't care. I voted for that administration, so I
have the right to hold them accountable. Can I like
to move fairly? Simply because we watched the media myself
(00:21):
included critique Trump's every move rightfully, So okay, because right
is right, wrong is wrong, and we and we can't
keep our politicians honest if we're not honest with all politicians. Okay,
I'm lying. Politicians will never be honest. It's just not
how they are wired. Okay. Their job is to sell dreams, period.
That's what a politicians life is about. Dream selling. And
you just have to pick the dream you want to buy,
(00:42):
A k a vote your interest in Right now, I'm
not interested in nothing. Either side is selling. And I
think it's very important to keep folks aware of what's
going on now. Yesterday, Joe Biden had a presidential town
hall with seeing and host Don Lemon. Drop on a
clue bond for Don Lemon because the Don Lemons credit.
He pressed him to explain why he hasn't called for
the filibuster to be abolus. Now, I don't I told
(01:03):
you all this last week, But let me reiterate what
the filipbuster is. Any attempt to block our delay Senate
action on a bill or other matter by debating it
at length, by offering a bunch of procedural motions, and
other delaying our obstructive actions. If you got rid of that,
then this administration could actually get some things done, because
the Democrats have a majority that depends on a tie
(01:23):
breaking vote from Vice President Kamala Harris. If they got
rid of the filibuster, they could pass legislation without Republicans.
But you've got Democrats like Joe Manson and Kirsten centem
are saying they don't want to get rid of it.
It makes which makes no sense if they actually care
about what happens to people in this country. But they
don't care about people. They care about their own political
(01:45):
interests and not the interests of we the people. So
Don Lemon rightfully so pressed Joe Biden about it last night,
and this happened. Why is protecting the filibusters that more
important than protecting voting rights. I want to see the
United States Congress United States Sentence pass s one, and
that's for the John Lewis, I get into my desk
so I can sign it. But what I want to
(02:05):
do as I'm trying to bring the country together, and
I don't want the debate to only be about whether
or not we have a filibuster or exceptions the filibuster,
or the going back to the way the filibuster had
to be used before. This isn't that the only way
you're gonna get it done? Right now? I don't believe
that why I protected there's no reason to protect it
other than that you're gonna throw the entire Congress in
(02:28):
the chaos and nothing won't get done. Can I be
the first to say, Joe Biden confuses me way more
than Donald Trump. I'll tell you why. I didn't expect
Donald Trump to know anything about government of politics. When
he would say that things he would say, um, you know,
they are what I would expect the executive producer of
Celebrity Apprentice to say. I knew what I knew what
Trump was. But Joe Biden is a career politician. Okay,
(02:51):
he was in the Senate for thirty six years. He
was vice president for HS, so he knows a thing
or two about politics. So when Don Lemon presses him
about getting rid of the filibuster, then asked why is
he protecting it? His reply, there's no need to protect it. Okay,
So if there's no need to protect it, lean on
mansion and send the Mother vote to get rid of
it so you can get some things done, like protecting
(03:11):
our right to vote. That John Lewis Voting Rights Act
all Afford the People's Act is not getting passed if
you don't have bolish the filipbuster. And you notice because
Senate Republicans are going to block more than Jianis in
Game six in the NBA Finals. Okay, if there's no
reason to protect it, President Biden, stop protecting it. Oh
but he did give a reason. He said, there's no
reason to protect it other than you're going to throw
(03:31):
the entire Congress in the chaos and nothing will get done. Okay,
So let me get this greet. You don't want to
abolish the filibuster because you don't want to throw the
entire Congress in the chaos and nothing will get done.
Woll President Biden. If you don't get rid of the filipbuster,
nothing will get done anyway, okay, nothing that the people want.
You'll be pleasing those old biggest in the Senate who
(03:52):
want to stop black and brown progress, who don't care
about poor people of of of of color, you know
what I mean, who don't care about poor people of
any color? Are it? And you want to talk about chaos,
You care about chaos and Congress more than you care
about chaos in the street, because chaos in the street
is what's gonna happen if you don't keep those promises
you made on the campaign trail. What do you think
will happen if the filibuster isn't abolish and you don't
(04:14):
get any of the things done that you need to do, like,
you know, voting rights, accident police reform. You have no
idea what chaos looks like. Okay, but you're about to
find out, all right. You told don Lemon verbatim, there's
a lot of at stake. The most important one is
the right to vote. That's the single most important one. Well,
if that's the case, act like it. Okay. Also, we
(04:35):
live in an era of misinformation, but we can't say
that one side pedals in fake news and alternative facts
were also dabbling in fake news and alternative facts. Now.
Last night, during the town all about the fact the vaccine,
Joe Biden had to say this one last thing that's
really important is we're not in a position where we
think that any virus, including the delta virus, which is
(04:56):
much more transmissible and more deadly, and terms of non
unvaccinated people, the virus, the the various shots that people
are getting now cover that there there, You're okay, you're
not gonna You're not going to get COVID if you
have these vaccinations. That's not true. If you're vaccinated and
(05:18):
the right information, Yeah, if you're vaccinated, you're not going
to be hospitalized, you're not going to be in the
I C Unit, and you're not gonna die. I mean, hey,
if all that was true to the great reasons to
get to vaccine. But Dr Leanna Wyne came on CNN
after that town hall with Don Lemon and President Joe Biden,
and she said this, let's listen. I was actually disappointed
by President Biden's speech tonight or his answers tonight, because
(05:41):
I actually thought that he was answering questions as if
it were a month ago. He's not really meeting the
realities what that's of what's happening on the ground. And
we now have triple the number of infections in the
US versus a month ago. We have escalation in cases
all over the country because of the Delta varian and
we actually don't know the answers to a lot of questions.
He was talking about how if you get the vaccine,
(06:03):
you're well protected from having severe disease. That's true, but
we actually don't know how well you're protected from mild
illness and whether with the Delta variant, if you're vaccinated,
could you still be contagious to other people. We know
that the vaccine reduces your likelihood of carrying the virus
and the amount of virus that you would carry, But
with a Delta variant, a person infected with the Delta
(06:23):
variant carries a thousand times the amount of virus compared
to previous variants. And so that's the problem. We don't
actually know about this transmission question. And I think that
President Biden actually lead people astray when he said, if
you're vaccinated, you can take off your mask. We don't
know that. I think he let go of a really
important opportunity. Tony. I think you could have said to
(06:44):
the audience, you all are protected because everybody here is vaccinated.
You're safe if you're vaccinated and everybody around you is vaccinated.
But if you are vaccinated and are around people who
are unvaccinated, you should be keeping a mask on drop
on a closed box. For doctor Leanna Win, I mean,
we're not a doctor, but we've been hearing on the
news that they're telling people even if you're vaccinated, to
(07:05):
wear a mask and spread and vaccination manages is tripled
and the like. Seeing all that listen, I respect Dr
Leanna Win for that. Um, why don't be afraid to
speak out and hold your elected officials accountable when they
are wrong, regardless if you voted for them or not,
regardless of what party you are affiliated with the not.
(07:26):
It's the American way. Take advantage of it because there
are other countries where you can't. Cuba Sleuth, all the
people in Cuba going through it right now, please give
President Joe Biden the biggest he Hall donkey to day.
Is brought to you by the law office of Michael
s Lamm and soft. Don't be a donkey. Dive pound
(07:46):
to fifty on your cell and say the bull If
you've been hurting a construction accident, that's pound to five
old from your cell and say the bullets past
