Man just love the island people. The reason we don't care, though,
is because you know, the Breakfast Club is a nationally
syndicated platform. So the reason we don't care that you're
in Saint Martin and is because we're here in New
York City where it's.
Speaker 7 (01:28):
Raining cold, it's forty five degrees, it's sixty.
Speaker 5 (01:30):

Speaker 3 (02:09):
Who we got in the show today? Today we have
David Hogg. He is an American gun control activist and
political strategist and the co chair of the DNC. You
remember David Hall. He was here back in the day
after the Parkland shooting. But now he's the CoA chair
at the DNC. So he'll be here because he's got
some very interesting stuff going on as far as you know,
wanting to switch out leadership and the Democratic Party. But
(02:32):
lennee BENI will be here as well. You know, if
you know anything about the Internet, which I'm sure a
lot of y'all do. She has a show online called
a Parking Lot Pimping, and she gives a lot of
social commentary from there. But she's got a new show
out on a vote called The People's Brief, and she'll
be here to talk about that.
Speaker 4 (02:49):
All right, we got a lot to discuss today. Lauren

was heading to the DR and because of kid cutting

Speaker 7 (03:13):
But don't ever be getting stuff that don't nobody else get,
Like you're in the York waters. The celebrities keep saying,
like everybody in the courtroom the details of the details.
Speaker 3 (03:22):
I mean, everybody in the courtroom getting the same information.
I'm happy that she's there, but.
Speaker 7 (03:25):
Jesus always say she says stuff to do nobody else.

Speaker 3 (03:28):
They absolutely just you can't let it consume you to
the point where you missing your and it's a business
trip for her to Yeah, so that's why she had
to get asked out there.
Speaker 4 (03:36):
All right, Well, let's get the show cracking. We got
front page news. Morgan to be joining us, and we
got a lot to break down today. There's so much
in the news this morning. We gotta talk Diddy Kid,
Cuddy ran me, Pap. There's a lot, so much.
Speaker 2 (03:47):
We'll get on to it. Jess's gonna be holding it down.
I'm sorry, huh oh.
Speaker 7 (03:52):
Now, y'all won't give me a job bad.
Speaker 4 (03:55):
It's the Breakfast Cloak morning. Everybody is t j n V.
Jess clears the guy. We are to Breakfast club. Let's
get in some front page news.
Speaker 2 (04:04):
Start off with sports.
Speaker 10 (04:05):
Now.
Speaker 4 (04:05):
OKAC beat the timber Wolves last night one to eighteen
one o three.
Speaker 2 (04:08):
They lead that series to Yo.
Speaker 3 (04:10):
A man, Julius Randall, what y'all gonna do? Y'all gonna
make this a serious? Are we just gonna have to
sleep through the Western Conference Finals?
Speaker 4 (04:17):
I don't know. I actually need Minnesota to win because
I think if the Knicks do win, we have a
better shot at beating the Timberwolves in Oka. See, but
I gotta be beat the Paces first. And we play
the Paces tonight at eight pm.
Speaker 3 (04:27):
So you're worried about the wrong things, you need to
focus on them damn Paces and make sure that the
Knicks can beat them.
Speaker 4 (04:32):
Okay, I know, I know.
Speaker 6 (04:33):
What's up, Morgan A happy Friday? How we fill in?
Speaker 7 (04:38):
We good legood?
Speaker 6 (04:39):
All right, let's get into it.
Speaker 11 (04:41):
So first on front page, President Trump says lowering the
cost of drugs may end up being the most significant
thing his.
Speaker 6 (04:47):
Administration will do.
Speaker 11 (04:49):
He made the comments speaking at the Make America Healthy
Event Again or Make America Healthy Again event, adding that
he challenges high drug prices and that will resident or
generations to come now. Last week, Trump signed an executive
order aimed at slashing prescription drug prices.
Speaker 6 (05:06):
He said the US.
Speaker 11 (05:07):
Will no longer foot the bill for lower drug prices
in other countries. So let's take a listen to President
Trump at his Make America Healthy Again event.
Speaker 12 (05:16):
And now they're going down maybe by eighty five eighty
And I'm telling you, eighty nine percent in two instance
is eighty nine percent cut.
Speaker 13 (05:24):
Nobody's ever seen anything like it.
Speaker 14 (05:25):
We were subsidized, saying the whole world, and I said,
We're not going to do that anymore.
Speaker 2 (05:29):
We've been a laughing stock for so many years. The
last four years, we've been a laughing stock. I said it.
We were a laughing sock, and now we're the most respected.
Speaker 3 (05:37):
So I'm still confused by this, Morgan, because the Inflation
Reduction Act is already in place. Like, the inflation reduction
that was put in was actual legislation passed by the
Biden administration, and that lord prescription drug costs. It made
health insurance more affordable. And that's actual legislation, not an
executive order. So what is what Trump did better than that?
Speaker 6 (05:58):
Oh no, it's not necessarily that it's better.
Speaker 11 (06:00):
But you know, the Republicans don't like the Inflation Reduction Act,
and it doesn't necessarily address those overseas costs on certain things.
Speaker 6 (06:08):
Now, Health Secretary Robert F.
Speaker 11 (06:10):
Kennedy Junior released his Make America Healthy Again Report, saying
it's a call to action for common sense.
Speaker 6 (06:17):
Now.
Speaker 11 (06:17):
He believes it's a roadmap for federal agencies to use
to reduce chronic childhood illness. And at the top of
the list was poor diet and estimated seventy percent of
US kids calories coming from ultra processed foods. US Agriculture
Secretary Brook Rawlins also talked about reforms and food stamps.
Speaker 6 (06:35):
Let's take a listen to their comments. Kennedy and Rawlins,
it's common sense that not all calories are equal in
nutritional value. It's common sense that over medicating kids is dangerous.
Speaker 15 (06:47):
We are on track to sign multiples of snap waivers
to get junk food and sugary drinks out of our
food stamp system.
Speaker 7 (06:57):
And I am so proud.
Speaker 11 (07:00):
So Other points from the MAHA report include too many
environmental chemicals in our food, lack of activity and chronic stress,
and the over prescription of medication for kids.
Speaker 6 (07:11):
Of course, they're talking about trands and on things like that.
Speaker 11 (07:13):
Kennedy says the US must act decisively to reverse the
childhood chronic disease crisis. Now, in other news, Harvard University
can no longer enroll foreign students.
Speaker 6 (07:23):
That's according to Homeland Security.
Speaker 11 (07:24):
Christy know them who sent a letter to Harvard informing
them that their eligibility or their ability to enroll foreign
students at their university has been revoked. She says the
university has not fully complied with all reporting requirements to DHS,
including providing detailed records of foreign students misconduct on campus.
I'm not going to toss to her audio, but the
Trump administration has already yanked millions in federal grants meant
(07:47):
for the university. I anticipate seeing more of this with
other institutions of higher education who decide to bump back
against the Trump administration. So we will continue to keep
you posted on what happens in these types of situations,
these types of instances.
Speaker 2 (08:02):
That's your Is that illegal?
Speaker 3 (08:03):
I mean, I hear these things and I don't know
if they're leegal or not. It don't sound like that's
something you should be You can just do, But can you?
Speaker 2 (08:09):
Are you worried about legal with Donald Trump?
Speaker 16 (08:11):
Right?
Speaker 6 (08:12):
If you keep asking this question.
Speaker 5 (08:14):
That's right?
Speaker 3 (08:15):
Do that there is no rule of law when it
comes to the Trump administration.
Speaker 5 (08:18):
You're absolutely right. There you go, You're absolutely right.
Speaker 17 (08:20):
All right?
Speaker 6 (08:21):
All right? So that covered six am.
Speaker 11 (08:22):
At seven am, we're gonna get some more details on
this shooting that happened in Washington, DC at the Capitol
Jewish Museum.
Speaker 4 (08:28):
All right, everybody else, get it off your chest. Eight
hundrink five A five one oh five one. If you
need to vent phone line to wide open again eight
hundred five eight five one oh five one. Call us
up right now. It's the Breakfast Club.
Speaker 18 (08:39):
Good morning the Breakfast Club. Wait, this is your time
to get it off your Chest. Eight hundred five eight
five one five one. We want to hear from you
on the Breakfast Club.
Speaker 2 (08:53):
Hello. Who's this from Atlanta? Wesley from Get It off
your Chest?
Speaker 19 (08:58):
Hey, well, good morning. If you got I gotta I
think what's going on with Trump is the fact that
everybody in the government really want him to do what
he wants.
Speaker 8 (09:08):
What he's doing.
Speaker 5 (09:09):
I'll be thinking that too, Bro.
Speaker 19 (09:12):
He's doing exactly what the plan is. You know what
I'm saying. You get things in order when it comes
to finances and for the but the country. Now, don't
get me wrong, I'm not Trump fan. But when I
look at all of our constituents, is Democrats, Republicans, Independent,
everybody's just talking. Nobody's really doing anything.
Speaker 2 (09:33):
You know what I'm saying.
Speaker 3 (09:35):
Listen, I agree with you one hundred percent. Like it
makes no sense, Like even you know, when you think
about the last four years when Biden was in office,
they told us, you know, how much of a threat
that Donald Trump was, but they never acted like he
was one. And then you know when the less, when
he wins, and they're just like, welcome home. It almost
feels like everybody's in cohoots with each other, right because
(09:55):
if they weren't, if they weren't, I would feel like
it'd be more resistance, right, you know.
Speaker 19 (09:59):
Exact actly exactly.
Speaker 20 (10:01):
Now.
Speaker 19 (10:01):
The other thing I do want to say this, You
want to say, Charlie Mane all the time, what can
we do? Like every major government in history, for the
most part, has been overthrown by the people. I don't
think it's gonna be in the government. I think it's
somebody's that's got to stand up and take a million
people to the White House and say we want them out.
Speaker 4 (10:21):
You know what I'm talking about.
Speaker 2 (10:22):
Protesting?
Speaker 4 (10:23):
Yeah, that ain't going well if you're talking people protesting
anything else, like no, no.
Speaker 5 (10:27):
Yeah, the day that happened.
Speaker 7 (10:28):
I mean, I'm not trying I'm not.
Speaker 21 (10:30):
Trying to say go up in arms and stuff.
Speaker 19 (10:32):
But I'm just saying, like dictated, the overthrown by the people.
Speaker 2 (10:35):
You know what I'm saying, Yeah, that ain't gonna happen.
Speaker 5 (10:37):
Yeah, the day that happened, they gonna activate martial law.
I don't see that.
Speaker 3 (10:40):
I let a million people show up to the White
House and watching. Yeah, I don't see that going down.
Speaker 10 (10:46):
Well, who's this little smooth jazz from the court with a.

Speaker 5 (11:55):

Speaker 21 (11:56):
A you call him from King Street, South Carolina?
Speaker 3 (11:59):
Kings ball out in Kingstree at the night life?
Speaker 5 (12:01):
Man, what do you for a while?
Speaker 2 (12:03):
What do you know?
Speaker 22 (12:03):
What the night light salary?
Speaker 5 (12:04):
We don't play with me.
Speaker 3 (12:05):
You know, I'm from Moscow and I the whole party
at the night life back in the like, oh one,
when I was working a high ninety eight nine and
childs and I used to be at the night life
like every every Friday.
Speaker 21 (12:13):
Old sister and sister. You already know, yes, sir, okay,
but I want to have a conversation with you, my homeboy,
my brother. I'm an active this year in South Carolina,
y'all would have a conversation. Oh last week, I think
about Tory Lane about due process. You know, yes, sir, okay.
Here in South Carolina they had the mother and sweet
daughters that kill her Mother's Day in twenty twenty two.
(12:34):
I'm sure you're familiar with that officer going on the
call turn her life wasn't on, so she killed the
whole family. So they had a jury. The jury came
back and convicted on all charges, even tappled with evidence
because when she hit them, her life was on and
she turned the light on after, so that tapping whatever.
The We went there every day trying to fight the case.
(12:55):
Convicted looking like forty five years. The jurch came back
and gazed him, gave the officer three years, three years
and shoot the genial convictor. And then we're talking about
due process. This has been going on ever since Rodney
King or d of the officer back then. If you
remember a recall, we're small, they beat Rodney King quipped
(13:15):
them with a stick. They got to quit it. The
due process, it is not for us.
Speaker 2 (13:20):
It's not for us.
Speaker 21 (13:21):
It's always for the people that put in place to
help them. They're the one who's making the blow up.
So how will we get through foster? But they want
us to be patient and understand and go to the process,
and we'd be patient to go through the process. It
doesn't work for us. So when do we stop and
stop staying it's enough?
Speaker 3 (13:38):
Well, I'm a little confused on what you what you're
presenting right now, because I mean you're talking about police officers,
not regular everyday citizens. So of course, you know we
see police officers get off all the time, but that's
because they're police officer.
Speaker 5 (13:52):
Oh you drop the job. Damn yeah, I don't. I don't.
I don't understand what he was saying.
Speaker 2 (13:56):
Hello, who's this year?
Speaker 4 (13:58):

Speaker 2 (13:59):

Speaker 22 (14:00):

Yes?
Speaker 7 (17:24):
Yes, just it don't matter. Yeah, you knows as well.
Whether it's just Robbin Moore. Just don't do no lines,
don't be talk nobody.
Speaker 5 (17:40):
Why jess World.
Speaker 8 (17:43):
On the Breakfast Club.
Speaker 5 (17:44):
She's the coaches ship.
Speaker 3 (17:45):
She was able to get y'all to see something and
understand something that nobody could get you to see this
time to set it off and you get that finger ready,
you get that finger ready, y'all got she got this.
Speaker 7 (18:00):
Pap all right, y'all, y'all, I do remember they back
at it again back in December last year. Let me
exposed a relationship between Pap and Clarissa Shells or whatever,
and uh, it was a big thing that happened or whatever.
Now they're back for round two. So Clarissa was up
here on the Breakfast Club. The Breakfast Club always get
people in trouble. You're a member, Yeah, yeah, but I
didn't ask the question. Boy, So it's always on you.
(18:22):
You always act like you don't know what's going on.
But we got the audio play that because you spoke.
Speaker 23 (18:26):
I don't have to argue about anybody about where my
spot is with him.
Speaker 7 (18:30):
You know, it's like, that's not my place.
Speaker 24 (18:32):
Now.
Speaker 23 (18:32):
There are things that got to get handled, but it's
still it's not even my stuff to handle.
Speaker 2 (18:36):
Yeah, you said there's some things he needs to handle.
Speaker 8 (18:39):
You mean by.
Speaker 23 (18:39):
It's the elephant in the room. I don't have to
say in his personal life. Oh, but that takes time.
And like I said, that's not my place to speak
on you know what I'm saying, Like it get handled.
I just know that from my perspective, I'm with him.
I'm with him every day, and when I'm not with him,
we're on the phone every day.
Speaker 7 (18:56):
We love each other. So that's just kind of what
it is. So that all of already given Yeah, that's.
Speaker 23 (19:02):
We talk about so many different things.
Speaker 7 (19:04):
Clarify that Din has to get taken care of.
Speaker 23 (19:06):
But like you know, once again, it's not it's not
for me, you say, I'm saying like I'm not.
Speaker 25 (19:10):
I'm not married.
Speaker 7 (19:13):
But I was just trying to get clarity.
Speaker 5 (19:17):
That was already given out. That did it, That did it,
That did it.
Speaker 6 (19:20):
That wre me.
Speaker 7 (19:22):
Don't like being called an elephant, you know what I mean?
Because she got upset and then she she caught wind
to the interview and she hopped on allowed to give
her side of things.
Speaker 24 (19:30):
Don't nobody falling love? That's that then somebody with nowhere to stay.
I literally told him, every time your come up, your
current come up says my name, or does something that
I feel is trying to attack me in any type
of way, I'm gonna drag you.
Speaker 7 (19:49):
And I haven't even been dragging them bad enough.
Speaker 24 (19:52):
You got my daughter's mom out here looking crazy because
you refuse to tell people. Me and Ram haven't even
slept in the same bed since twenty two. You were
so wrapped up in the whole black love thing. That
was your thing, that was your that was the only
thing you had and I realized that, and and I
and I respected that.
Speaker 7 (20:10):
You know what, I don't need to.
Speaker 24 (20:12):
Be out here telling people you ain't this, and you
ain't got this, and you ain't doing this and you
ain't that.
Speaker 4 (20:16):
Whoever get you? Yes see?
Speaker 7 (20:18):
And when she also spoke on a while, the divorce
is taking so long?
Speaker 24 (20:23):
You moved on great. I'm trying to understand what's the
hold up? What's what's the hold up?
Speaker 2 (20:27):
Who's holding what up?
Speaker 24 (20:28):
I have my lawyer called, like, yo, we sent them
the email, right, he gave his low information.
Speaker 7 (20:33):
Yeah, you gotta you called them?
Speaker 10 (20:35):
Right?
Speaker 6 (20:35):
What did she say?
Speaker 7 (20:36):
She said, he hasn't retained to yet.
Speaker 24 (20:38):
If you don't go pay that lady, I said, okay,
maybe maybe it's not there. Maybe hey, guess what it
could say both of us some money we don't gotta have.
We don't gotta have all our business out there. We
don't have to do all of these. I paid my
lawyer already, that's getting mediator. I don't want nothing. I
don't want nothing. I'm not asking the child support, spousal support.
(21:00):
I don't want no cars, I don't want no crip.
I'm not giving nobody anything. That's done there's neither.
Speaker 7 (21:06):
Yo and then y'all know. So when this thing blew up,
it's always been speculation about who left who. Did Pat
leave her because she cheated? Or she did she leave
him because she got tired of him? Whatever? She also
made it, she made it clear yesterday did it never?
They didn't end. She didn't leave him because of infidelity.
In didn't have.
Speaker 24 (21:23):
Nothing into what I break up because guess what, I'm
such a real one.
Speaker 7 (21:27):
I know the procedure when somebody goes to prison. When
I came.
Speaker 24 (21:31):
Home, now, I went straight through that phone immediately.
Speaker 7 (21:34):
I know what was up.
Speaker 24 (21:35):
When I had to fight baby mothers at mother in
law's houses on Thanksgiving, I knew that girl wasn't lying
about what she was saying was going on.
Speaker 7 (21:43):
While I was saying, I knew she wasn't likelying. I'm
just mad. I just was mad.
Speaker 24 (21:47):
I knew she wasn't lying though, So basically that's what
I said. But I didn't know about the fights that
I had to fight baby mothers on Thanksgiving right in housing,
y'a don't know about.
Speaker 7 (21:56):
I'm not no cornyass, So she ain't even even after that,
what I was gonna say, I don't like seeing Remy
and Pat poofs like this, Like both of them have
always been super solid.
Speaker 3 (22:05):
But I can understand why Remy is upset because if
you're dealing with somebody, you know, if you if you're
dealing with something like a divorce, you don't want to
hear the person's new booth speaking on y'all in any way.
Speaker 7 (22:16):
Way, even though Clarisia didn't really say like, didn't say
her name, wouldn't even really say anything like violent or
you know, to it her, she still just didn't want to.
Speaker 4 (22:24):
But the thing is, well, first of all, you're dealing
with two of the slickers mouths in the industry. They're
gonna go back and forth all day long. But the
only thing is I hate to see it because I
know Remy and I know Pap. But the only bad
thing about it is if they both moved on, right,
I think Remy moved on, have moved on. We don't
want to see this playing out, right, Yeah, but their daughter,
their daughter's gonna get to age where she sees stuff online,
and they love their daughter, They love their kids, and
(22:45):
I hate seeing this.
Speaker 2 (22:46):
Well, let's be honest, we don't.
Speaker 3 (22:48):
We don't want to see it playing out, but we
want to see it playing out. We're not the generation
of days, our lives in bold and beautiful.
Speaker 5 (22:54):
This's our stories, right.
Speaker 7 (22:56):
And this is also y'all got to think about what
she dealing with when she wake up and she see like,
you know, how long people have been telling her always
her fault, like she cheated, and she you know what
I mean, Like I be seeing people come for both
of them, but come for Remy more like they've been
on her ass.
Speaker 2 (23:09):
Yeah, they great.
Speaker 3 (23:11):
And if you have not been speaking on somebody and
you hear that new booth speaking on y'all relationship, you
feel like it's coming from your ex.
Speaker 5 (23:18):
So I can see what that was.
Speaker 7 (23:19):
And so because that means you're talking about what's going on,
you know, And she's going in all these interviews and
she's saying she's not touching it all the way, but
she touching on it, you know what I mean, the
elephant in the room. She did make it clear why
she left this She ain't even leave after all of that.
Speaker 4 (23:32):
She left.
Speaker 7 (23:33):
This is why she left.
Speaker 24 (23:34):
When I didn't want a man knit jer anymore, when
I didn't want somebody taking twenty percent out of my
check and I still.
Speaker 7 (23:44):
Pay all the bills anymore.
Speaker 24 (23:46):
When I decided that I didn't like being guilt tripped. Oh,
I was there when nobody else was there. That's the
type of people that gets prayed on. I'm the one
that said, hey.
Speaker 7 (23:57):
Please leave, are we doing this? Like this doesn't make sense?
Like y'all believed me when I said, this is.
Speaker 24 (24:04):
The most amazing person ever in the whole world.
Speaker 7 (24:07):
That's why ya think that because YA didn't see it.
I'm lying. I did stupid, Like, hey, look at my
new truck. It's a push you give. I bought that,
so I did do something to put the sauce on it.
Speaker 24 (24:17):
But that's what you're supposed to do when you love somebody,
and y'all in a relationship, you make them see like
that bigger than what they are.
Speaker 7 (24:22):
Yeah, and yo, she was live for eighty minutes. That
was just the first time. Y'all was about to say,
I didn't hear none of this yesterday? Yeah, yeah, yeah,
oh no, How long was she gonna live for? She
went live for eighty minutes the first time and then passed.
He felt the Lord triggered. It was a whole back
and forth. We ain't gonna get to everything, but it
was a lot. He said this.
Speaker 26 (24:39):
You know it's true. I wrote tons of her music.
Ninety percent of her music. I wrote it since I've
been around her. I wrote probably like three songs on
her first album. If I listened to it, I'll tell
you exactly what I wrote.
Speaker 2 (24:54):
And when you listen to.
Speaker 5 (24:55):
It, y'all know my pen.
Speaker 26 (24:56):
The only reason why I'm mentioning that is because you fabricates.
You fabricated, and you talked about my children, and as a.
Speaker 2 (25:03):
Father, I was not going to allow that.
Speaker 26 (25:06):
I'm allowed you to do what you've been doing all
this time, and I said nothing. She got mad at
me because I went live and say I didn't knock
this lean out.
Speaker 3 (25:14):
Now, as a hip hop fan, that's what I need
proof of. That's a hell of a that's a hell
of a accusation that you Y's first album. And then
I saw Papas last night that he wrote, U, I
got it.
Speaker 7 (25:28):
You got to provide that's her biggest songs.
Speaker 3 (25:31):
I don't care about the relationship stuff. That's your business.
As a hip hop fan, I got to see some
proof of that.
Speaker 7 (25:37):
And then also she wanted him to show proof al
so that she tried to get back with him, because
when he said that, he said, Yo, you was just
trying to get back with me last night, and I
said no, she went live again. We don't got time
to play all that. But it's it's it's basically it's
a lot. And then also our biggest argument was like, yo,
I just I want the divorce, you know. She was
saying like, if you can't afford the lawyer, I'll pay
for it or whatever. Right, And then so he posted
(25:59):
out of no where like filing was the easiest thing
to do, and she said, if you look on the date, yo,
you just filed this today. Well this was yesterday when
it was live, but he had just went to fil yesterday.
That the date is on the paperwork and everything. Clarissa
also took to Twitter to confirm some things and uh, yeah,
y'all going.
Speaker 8 (26:17):
Her so much.
Speaker 5 (26:17):
Can I ask one quick question?
Speaker 7 (26:18):
What's up?
Speaker 3 (26:19):
Why do we always say the elephant in the room?
Has there ever been an elephant in any room? And
how did they get there?
Speaker 8 (26:25):
Like?
Speaker 5 (26:25):
Why do we say that?
Speaker 7 (26:26):
But I guess the biggest thing because nobody's talking the
biggest thing in the room. How did you ever ignore
an elephant in the work.
Speaker 5 (26:34):
Now who bought it?
Speaker 7 (26:35):
There though no idea, you know, Michael Jackson said, the
animals everywhere.
Speaker 4 (26:40):
We don't no room that I know of. Okay, that's
the question.
Speaker 2 (26:44):
But anyway, I hate to see this.
Speaker 4 (26:46):
I mean, like I said, we love both of them,
and like Charlamagne said, we are hip hopheads.
Speaker 2 (26:51):
I mean, Remy has been spitting since I.
Speaker 3 (26:54):
Writing Remy raps. That's the only thing I need proof
of all that relationship stuff.
Speaker 4 (26:57):
But you also, they try to hurt each other, like
they're trying to hurt the chat, like they're so upset
they will say anything to hurt each other. We don't
necessarily know what's false, what's true, but they're trying to
hurt each other.
Speaker 3 (27:05):
That's how you know that's a hip hop couple. That's
how you heard that I wrote your rap.
Speaker 4 (27:10):
And if you don't remember, a couple of months ago,
she was like, I know you're gonna come out and
say you nobody gonna believe that.
Speaker 7 (27:16):
Like she did say that. He was so that this
must have been being said for years, Like even when
they was together and arguing, he must have said it.
He might have been rapping it prand things.
Speaker 4 (27:25):
You don't want to hear somebody got a small p fee.
Did anybody say that?
Speaker 5 (27:28):
All right, I'm talking about rapping, but that's how.
Speaker 7 (27:33):
You hurt somebody. Somebody all started on the breakfast club.
This is what That's not true, doing that to people
up here?
Speaker 5 (27:40):
True that ephant shut up? All right?
Speaker 4 (27:45):
When we come back, we got front page news and
don't go anywhere.
Speaker 2 (27:48):
It's the breakfast club.
Speaker 4 (27:49):
Good morning, wake up.
Speaker 8 (27:51):
If you're like to enter the breakfast club.
Speaker 17 (27:53):

Speaker 4 (27:54):
Everybody's d J n V Jesse hilarious, Charlamagne the guy.
We are the breakfast Club. Let's get in some front
news now. Last night OKC beat the Timberwolvesdale, leading as
series to nothing, and tonight my New York Micks take

at the Garden, and we're gonna win this when we
gotta winness when we we can't play with you Indiana.
Speaker 2 (28:13):
Shoot y'all played with him last game, you right, We
ain't playing with them no more. What's up Morgan?
Speaker 6 (28:18):
All right, let's get into it.
Speaker 11 (28:20):
So more details are coming out about the shooting that
took place at the Capitol Jewish Museum in Washington, d C.
That left to Israeli embassy staffers dead Uron Lisinski and
Sarah Milgrim were gounned down outside the Capitol Jewish Museum
shortly after nine pm on Wednesday night. A man identified
as Elias Rodriguez faces two counts of first degree murder,
along with murder of foreign officials and two firearm related charges.
(28:43):
Rodriguez was taken into custody following the shooting outside of
the Capitol Jewish Museum, and he reported to have shouted free,
Free Palestine while he was being arrested. Now, US Attorney
General Pam Bondi said she's been in constant contact with
President Trump since it happened, and the death penalty for
Rodriguez is a possibility. She made these comments yesterday, so
(29:03):
just don't want you get confused about her saying yesterday.
She's speaking in reference to Wednesday. So let's take a
listen to US Attorney General Pam Bondi.
Speaker 14 (29:11):
I was on the phone with Donald Trump all evening long,
all evening. He called me first thing this morning. He
is horrified by what happened. Two beautiful young people were
gunned down last night needlessly.
Speaker 21 (29:25):
You know.
Speaker 14 (29:25):
I saw his body being taken away from the scene
that was horrific.
Speaker 11 (29:30):
So meanwhile, Senators John Thune and Chuck Schumer are speaking
out about the incident.
Speaker 6 (29:35):
Senator Senate Majority.
Speaker 11 (29:37):
Leader John Thune said he's disgusted, while Senate Minority Leader
Chuck Schumer said people should be outraged about this incident.
Speaker 6 (29:45):
Let's take a listen to their comments and.
Speaker 9 (29:46):
Everything we know so far, it is appallingly clear that
event attendees were deliberately targeted.
Speaker 27 (29:53):
Such a blatant and targeted act of anti semitism right
here in the nation's capital should outrage you, everybody. Beautiful,
young couple about to be married, just starting their lives,
gunned down, seeming seemlings, seemingly because they were Jewish.
Speaker 6 (30:10):
Yeah, very very sad situation. I'll keep your guys on
that now.
Speaker 11 (30:14):
Senator Schumer also used his time on the floor to
address the passage of President Trump's Big Beautiful Bill, and
speaking of which, President Trump's Big Beautiful Bill did pass
yesterday morning on a vote of two fifteen to two fourteen,
with all Democrats and two Republicans voting no. House Speaker
Mike Johnson is offering some advice to his colleagues in
the Senate, who will now take up the measure after
(30:36):
the vote, Johnson says he hopes the Senate will pass
the bill so it can be on President President Trump's
desk by July fourth.
Speaker 6 (30:44):
Let's take a listen to how Speaker Mike Johnson well look.
Speaker 12 (30:47):
Forward to the Senate's timely consideration of this once in
a generation legislation, which stand ready to continue our work
together to deliver on the one big, beautiful bill, as
President Trump named it himself.
Speaker 2 (30:58):
We're going to send that to his desk.
Speaker 12 (31:00):
We're going to get there by Independence Day on July fourth,
and we are going to celebrate a new golden age
in America.
Speaker 6 (31:07):
It's definitely going to be new giving. It's giving new,
all right.
Speaker 11 (31:10):
So Senators have already promised to make some changes to
that build. If it does become law, it would institute
reforms to Medicaid, including stricter work requirements and more frequent
alibility eligibility checks.
Speaker 6 (31:23):
Excuse me.
Speaker 11 (31:24):
It's estimated the US will save at least six hundred
and twenty five billion dollars, but it also means seven
point six million Americans will lose health insurance over the
next ten years. It would also eliminate taxes on tips,
while putting billions towards fighting illegal immigration and a nationwide
defense system like the Golden Dome I mentioned earlier this week,
among other things. So I will continue to keep you
(31:47):
guys posted as to what's happening. I believe that per
this Memorial Day weekend, Congress is headed to a recess,
so they'll be on recess all of next.
Speaker 6 (31:57):
Week and then there will return the fire following week.
Speaker 11 (32:00):
And speaking of Memorial Day, the weekend travel rush is
already underwag peak. Airport crowds are expected today, with the
FAA expecting record breaking travel. Over three and a half
million people are expected to get to their destination by
plane and almost two percent increase from last year. And
then of course there's also they're also seeing people on
the roads. Triple A is forecasting forty five million Americans
(32:23):
will hit the road between today and Monday for the
holiday weekend. So yeah, if you're headed out like you
and V, you know, just make sure you guys are safe,
paccupations and treat others with some kindness and respect because
between real IV and the administration and everything else that's
going on, you know, we could all use a little
bit of vacation, a little bit of a break book.
You know, in order to get to that break we
(32:44):
might have to stand in some lines and you know,
wait in some traffic.
Speaker 4 (32:47):
So just yeah, like I said, give yourself a little
extra time. And remember if somebody's a little late in
the rushing and you got a little time, let them through.
Let them through. You don't know what their day was,
what they've been through, what happened. They could have got
a flat town on the way to the airport.
Speaker 2 (33:00):
Give people some grace today. Oh this weekend, I should say,
all right.
Speaker 11 (33:03):
And one more thing real quick, if I can shout
out the eighty two second Airborne Infantry Division and celebration
of their All American Week. They reached out to me
saying that they listened to us on Fayetteville, North Carolina
on foxy ninety nine, So hashtag Airborne all the way.
And of course I want to salute all of our
military and our service leaders who have made the ultimate sacrifice.
That is what Memorial Day is, all the you know
(33:25):
is about. So those who serve, we salute you and
thank you for your service. That's your front page news.
Speaker 6 (33:30):
Follow me on.
Speaker 11 (33:31):
Socials at Morgan Medium for more news coverage. Follow at
Black Information Network, download the free iHeartRadio app, and visit

Speaker 4 (33:41):
Thank you, Morgan, Thanks Morgan, joe An, you too, everybody else.
When we come back, who's joining the chelamane?
Speaker 3 (33:46):
Well, first, I want to tell everybody today is Friday,
and you know on Fridays we do the people's donkey. Okay,
So if you want to give somebody the credit they
deserve for being stupid, okay, call up right now, one
one hundred and five five, one oh five one, and
I'm gonna let you all give out the biggest he
hard this morning. And our guest is David Hogg. David
Hogg is an American gun control activist. He's a survivor
(34:07):
of the twenty eighteen park Land shooting and now he's
a political strategist and co chair of the DNC, and
he is doing some great things in regards to challenging
ineffective leadership in the Democratic Party.
Speaker 4 (34:19):
So we're gonna talk to him, all right, we'll get
to that next, So don't move. It's the Breakfast Club,
God Morning, the Breakfast Club. Warning everybody, as thej n
V Jess Hilarious, Charlamagne the Guy.
Speaker 2 (34:32):
We are a breakfast club.
Speaker 4 (34:33):
We got a special guest in the building, American gun
control activists and political strategist and co chair of the DNC.
Speaker 2 (34:40):
Ladies and gentlemen, we have David Hogg.
Speaker 5 (34:41):
Good to see you, man.
Speaker 3 (34:42):
You know, I really appreciate a lot of the things
that you've been doing because you are challenging the Democratic establishment,
and I just think we need more of that.
Speaker 13 (34:52):
Yeah, I certainly agree. I think the fact of the
matter is, right now, we have seen last election, we
lost voting share with nearly every single demograph pick out there,
and we also lost against Donald Trump of all people. Right,
And if that's not a sign that we need to
dramatically change, I don't know what is. So that's really
what we're out here trying to do is help to
elevate a new generation and also make sure that nobody
(35:13):
feels like you know, that they can just be in
their position of power forever, because ultimately, this is democracy
last I checked, right, and it's about making sure that
we have the best representation possible in every district.
Speaker 3 (35:24):
Do you feel like the Democratic establishment uses young activists
as mascots more than partners.
Speaker 13 (35:29):
Certainly, at times it can happen. I mean I know
for a fact when I started running for this position,
you know, there were people who were certainly resistant who
I ended up talking to a lot of the time.
That was actually one of my favorite parts about running
for this position, because when you're running to be a
vice chair, you have to call people and obviously earn
their vote, and one of my favorite parts about it
was talking to the people who at first did not
(35:51):
want to vote for me at all. I mean, there
was one person who I talked to who actually said,
in one of my first calls that I made to
ask for the support, that I never talked to this
person before this that said that I should not do this.
I cannot win, and that there's absolutely no pathway to
victory for me, and that they would not vote for me.
That was the first call that I had, very welcoming, right,
But what I said to them was like, I understand
(36:13):
that you're not in a position where you feel like
you're not gonna be able to support me, but ultimately,
I care a lot about the constituency group that you represent,
so I want to keep talking to you because even
if you don't vote for me, I do care about
what you care about, And ultimately they ended up coming
around and supporting me and being a huge supporter as well.
Speaker 3 (36:27):
And you were a survivor of the Parkland shooting with
that would spark the thought to get into politics.
Speaker 13 (36:32):
Yeah, I mean before this, I wanted to be a
journalist because I wanted to scare the crap out of
politicians that I thought were corrupt as well, and didn't
do anything ultimately, But I realized after Parkland, when my
classmates and I mobilized. For people that may not remember,
we had one of the largest school shootings in American
history after my high school in Parkland, and my classmates
and I were obviously devastated after that, but I would
(36:55):
say just as much as that, we were furious because
we grew up hearing from our politicians their thoughts and
prayers over and over again after these shootings, but they
weren't really doing anything right.
Speaker 24 (37:04):
I was.
Speaker 13 (37:05):
I think I was in middle school when Sandy Hook happened.
I wasn't even alive when Columbine happened. That's how long
this has been going on for. And we went out
there and we didn't say go out and vote for
Democrats or Republicans necessarily, we said, go out and vote
for more religis leaders that represent you and your values right.
And what we saw was one of the largest youth
photo turnouts in American history. We took back the House.
And what we saw as well is after Parkland, we
(37:27):
didn't go out there. Even though there was a lot
of the polsters and consultants and pundits that brought the
Democratic Party to the place that it is right now,
who told us, No, you can't talk about taking on
the NRA, the organization that stops these gun laws from
changing a.
Speaker 5 (37:39):
Lot of the time insanity.
Speaker 13 (37:40):
You can't talk about banning assault weapons because that's too unpopular.
Because this is Florida, it's a Republican state. Gun laws
get weaker here because we did the opposite of what
all those purported experts told us to do. We actually
did change gun laws in Florida.
Speaker 2 (37:52):
Yeah, because you're not fixing the problem if you don't
go after.
Speaker 13 (37:54):
Exactly you have to address it. And because of that,
we raised the aged by a gun to twenty one.
For context of the shoot at my high school, he
couldn't buy a handgun from a federally licensed dealer because
he wasn't twenty one yet, but he could purchase an
AR fifteen. And then we passed a red flag law
that can disarm people that are risk themselves in others.
That has been used over nineteen thousand times in the
state of Florida to disarm people that, for example, threaten
(38:16):
to shoot up a high school or harm their intimate partner,
you know, and thousands of lives have been saved from that.
And what I learned from that experience is that it's
actually summed up well by Dolores Rereta, who I asked
one time at a protest, what is the most important
thing that you need to tell any young person or
activist that wants to make change that they need to know?
What she said to me is it doesn't matter whether
or not the change it is actually possible. It's whether
(38:38):
or not you can make people believe that the change
is possible more than anything. And that's what we did
after Parkland, and I think what we're trying to do
now is take that generation of young people who have
been let down in so many ways by their political system,
whether it's through gun violence inside of school or outside
of school, whether it's the housing crisis, the student debt
crisis are so much more and show them that there's
a new generation of people coming in that are people
(39:00):
like Congressman Maxwell Frost. I don't know if you know
this person. He's the youngest member of Congress. He started
he was working for March for Our Lives while I
was in college, and he called me up and he
said he wanted to run for Congress. And I said,
that's awesome, but you know you're twenty four, right, He
had to be twenty five to get elected to Congress.
And Maxwell, do you know, he didn't come from some
super fancy background. His parents aren't super wealthy or anything
like that. He's just a normal person. And when he
(39:23):
was running, he had to Uber drive from nine pm
to two am every night while running for Congress. And
he was running against two former members of Congress, one
of whom was a head fund manager while they were
a member of Congress. Not a conflict of interest at all, right,
And then the other one had committed tax run while
they were in Congress. And Maxwell's ridden off by the
establishment so much. They said, you know, he's a great person,
(39:44):
but he can't win. He can't raise that kind of money,
and we helped him raise I helped him raise about
four hundred thousand dollars in his first two quarters. But
the thing is the most important thing that somebody needs
to run for office is the will, the grit, and
the distermination to get elected. But they also need a
substantial amount of funding in order to get elected. Far
too many young people with that griten determination struggle to
get there. And that's why we do what we do
(40:04):
with leaders we deserve. Because Maxwell ended up with that
determination and that support, becoming the youngest member of Congress,
that helps us pearhead and effort to get the Biden
administration to aggress to address gun violence in a more
substantial manner. And shortly after I graduated from college, I
found myself sitting in the Rose Garden at the White
House with Congressman Maxwell Frost, who I had just I
(40:27):
literally hired from my freshman dorm room, introducing the President
of the United States to create something called the Office
of Gun Violence Prevention that helped to coordinate the federal
government's response to gun violence, and they oversaw about a
twenty five percent reduction in gun homicides over the course
of about three years from that work, and that's because
of the pressure that Maxwell helped to put on. But
imagine if we had thirty Maxwell's in Congress.
Speaker 7 (40:48):
David, going back to the shooting, you were just seventeen
when that happened, right, I can only imagine, like, what
was I know you said you guys were fairious, but
what is something from that day? What do you remember
most about the data sticks with you today?
Speaker 13 (41:03):
I think what I remember most was just the sense
of anger that I had at what had happened. But
it was more righteous indignation, kind of like the injustice
of what had happened. Because I had spent the past
four years in my speech and debate classes, studying arguing
about gun control, for example, and having to argue on
both sides of it, both for and against it.
Speaker 25 (41:23):
You don't get to decide.
Speaker 13 (41:24):
Which side you're arguing on. You have to argue on both.
And I was frustrated because I felt like I maybe
myself and my classmates could have done something before this
because of what we knew from that education that we
did it that could have potentially prevented it. So that's
a lot of what I think about, and of course,
to the fear that one has when my sister was
just fourteen years old that day and she lost four friends.
(41:46):
That's really what I was thinking about was, for the
first time in my life, there wasn't anything that I
could do to help my sister feel better other than
to try to stop this from happening to other people.
And that sense of helplessness is really what I hold
on too. But I also remember that the friendship and
camaraderie that my cosmates and I and the parents and
teachers and other people that we worked with had in
order to hold these politicians' feet to the fire. Because
if there's anything that I learned from that experience, when
(42:09):
I originally went out and started talking about it, I
wasn't doing it as an activist. I was doing it
as a journalist because I wanted to talk about what
happened that day. But I soon realized it wasn't gonna
be enough to do that, because you can't just talk
about what's wrong.
Speaker 2 (42:21):
You got to make it better and.
Speaker 13 (42:22):
Say what needs to be done right, and journalists often
can't do that.
Speaker 4 (42:26):
Was still kicking in with the co chair of the DNC,
David Hogg. Charlamagne, let me.
Speaker 3 (42:29):
Ask a question, David, at what moment did you realize
you were more of a threat than an asset to
democratic leadership.
Speaker 13 (42:36):
I wouldn't say that I'm a I would say that
I'm still an asset because I would say that this
much is true. Right, if you're in democratic leadership, It's
kind of like being the coach of a baseball team, right, Like, sure,
could you go out against a group of fifth graders
and hit a home run? Absolutely, But ultimately, if you
can't get other people on base, right because they can't
even swing the bat. Sometimes it's not a matter of
(42:56):
what type of bat they're using, it's a matter of
can they swing to actually get on base in the
first place, And it's a matter of getting new players. Ultimately,
it's not a matter of oh can we can? We
just do more and more training. And I think what
we need to do more of in our own party is, yes,
we have to fight back to defeat Republicans, but we
also need to give people something true and authentic.
Speaker 5 (43:15):
To vote for.
Speaker 13 (43:16):
Where we're showing people how the reason you vote for
us isn't just so that we have a majority, it's
so that we use our majority to help you, Right,
Because if we stuck with that politics of cowardice, we
never would have passed the Affordable Care Act in the
first place. We never would have passed so many of
the most monumental pieces of legislation than now we're helping
one hundreds of millions Americans around the country. Of course,
(43:37):
there are challenges with democratic leadership, but what I would
say is, especially in the case of somebody like a
king Jeffreys, let's get him the majority so we can
see what he can actually do with that majority.
Speaker 5 (43:46):
In the first place. Anything I can see, here's the thing,
and I treat it like anything else.
Speaker 3 (43:50):
Right, Like you know how they say money doesn't change you,
It just it just multiplies whatever you already are.
Speaker 5 (43:58):
More power is not going to change these people.
Speaker 3 (44:00):
If you're a coward with no power, you're going to
be a coward with power. We've seen plenty of Democrats
who have power who are still cowards. My team ain't
going to do nothing different with Powell.
Speaker 13 (44:09):
Well, I think if we I think, if we have
the right people elected that are out there, they're going
to be able. Ultimately, sometimes it's not a matter of
what you want to do when you have to get
elected to those positions within the House. For example, if
we get more people elected that are saying, no, this
is not enough. We have to fight harder, that we're
not just going to stick in our positions of power forever,
and we're going to say to you, for example, that
(44:31):
if we're going to vote for you, this is what
we want to see. Because obviously he has to be
elected to be the majority Speaker of the House by
having some of them, some more of those young people
that are on the front lines of these issues of
addressing that I know in those internal deliberations that it's
not so much a matter of what he wants to do,
it's more a matter of if he wants to get elected.
He is going to have to be able to fight harder,
and I know that those young people will push him
(44:52):
to do that, and if they feel like he's not
going to, then they won't vote for it.
Speaker 5 (44:55):
Have you ever been directly wanted by anyone in the
democratic quality to Staniela?
Speaker 13 (45:01):
There certainly are are real challenges so the work that
we are doing, but I'm not gonna let that stop me.
You know, I wouldn't say necessarily that it's like somebody
is directly coming to me and saying if you don't
stop this, this is going to happen to you, or
something like that. But they that's not how a lot
of these things work inside of DC. A lot of
the time it's not necessarily necessarily an overt threat. It
is essentially a tacit threat that we hear a lot
(45:21):
of the time knowing that if X thing happens, then why.
Speaker 25 (45:24):
Could happen to you?
Speaker 5 (45:25):
Why not call it out?
Speaker 8 (45:25):
Though? Why not?
Speaker 13 (45:27):
Because ultimately it is what I care more about is
when there are people that go against me, whether it
was for example, in the vice chair race, I know
the power for my own work and gun violence prevention
of being a bigger person working towards victory, and ultimately,
when you do that, a lot of those people start
to come around. Because a lot of the time in DC,
(45:47):
we have a lot of wind socks that go just
whichever way the wind is blowing right, whichever side that
they think is going to win. And I believe in
the politics of being able to reconcile those differences and
work together despite what people say. Because what's even more powerful,
Charlottne is that when when somebody comes out and tries
to go overtly against you, right, and they know that
they did that to you, but they see that you
(46:07):
start to win, and that's ultimately what they care most about.
Then if you don't go out there and start calling
them out publicly, one it's not nearly as divisive, and two,
it shows that you're trying to be a real leader.
And ultimately they oftentimes feel guilty about it and they
want them try to make up for it by working
to help you because they want to be on the
side of winning, and ultimately that's what we're trying to
do here. If that makes sense, How do.
Speaker 7 (46:28):
You respond to people that stay that your work is
too political.
Speaker 3 (46:32):
But you don't really Yeah, you're doing this for selfish
reasons and not because you actually care about you know,
the whole party if they advance your political career.
Speaker 10 (46:42):
No, no, no.
Speaker 13 (46:43):
So what I'll say is when I when I was eighteen,
I said that I wanted to run for Congress because
I thought that would be the best a way to
make change. But I realized when I was working with
people like Maxwell and other young people around the country
how hard it is to raise money and get the
resources to get elected. Because of course courages that resource
that we lack the most, but those courageous people they
(47:03):
need cash in order to get elected. And I could
be one person myself to go out there and maybe
I get elected to Congress, But ultimately, what is more,
what is going to be more beneficial for the future.
Speaker 5 (47:13):
Right One.
Speaker 13 (47:14):
I often do get physically threatened, not necessarily by Democrats,
necessarily by any means, but by a lot of people
who don't agree with the things that I say about
strengthening gun laws. My family and I we got probably
over a thousand death threats after the shooting, I would say,
between online and directly in the mill. My house got
swatted as well. And what I frankly have to think
(47:35):
about is that I can't just be one person doing
this right, And there's a whole movement of people out
there that are doing this, a whole movement of young
people that have gone through these school shootings. And what
I want to help do is I don't want to
just be one vote that's out there. I want to
help bring in a generation that is truly representative of
our generation and not just what somebody who's able to
raise as much money as possible to get elected looks like.
(47:57):
And That's what we're trying to do with this is
look at all the Canada that we supported last cycle,
where we helped elect the youngest person and the Georgia
legislature ever it was a seventh grade algebra teacher. Look
at the person who we elected, Dante Pittman in North Carolina,
who helped to break the Republican supermajority out there. Look
at people like Nadarius Clark in Virginia who broke the
Republican majority in the House and help pass all this stuff.
So the reason why I'm doing this is because I
(48:19):
don't want to just walk through that door myself and
close it behind me. I don't want to just keep
the door open. I want to take the door off
the damn hinges and enable it so that future young
people don't need to have the door held open for
them in the first place. What they need to do that, though,
is they need the funding to get elected and make
sure that they have their right value so that they're
able to reform our campaign finance system. Because what I
(48:39):
look at this as ultimately is an insurance policy for
the gun safety movement. Where President Biden's generation, they didn't
go through school shooter drills, but they went through a
different type of drill. They went through nuclear bomb drills,
and they went on to pass some of the largest
arms or reduction treaties in human history to limit those
nuclear weapons. And I think that's important because they felt
the anxiety of what it was like to be told
(49:01):
by your government just hide under your desk to survive
a nuclear bomb and the epic failure of leadership that
that is. And I believe for the difference from our
generation is that the bomb is going off multiple times
a year. Absolutely, So let's get them elected so that
they can lead, like Congressman Frost boldly on this instead
of me just being one vote, because it's about our
(49:21):
generation and the story of are we going to continue
having conversations like this in the future where school shootings
remain in the headlines, and gun violence remains in the headlines,
and so many issues that we should not have to
deal with in the richest country in human history remain
in the headlines, or we're going to leave them where
they belong in the history books.
Speaker 4 (49:37):
We still have David Hogg in a building, co chair
of the DNC.
Speaker 3 (49:40):
Charlomagne, give me some other names, because you know, you
keep mentioning in Maxwell Frost, who do you think is
the voice of the Democratic Party?
Speaker 1 (49:46):
Who do you think should be the voice of the
Democratic Party? Are Is there multiple voices? Well, I think
one there's going to be multiple voices, right. I think
one of the great things about our party that also
creates some challenges is, look, we are not a cult.
We can have to tell in recent well sometimes I
understand what you're saying, certainly given some of the responses
that I've gotten to this, but ultimately we're not a
party with somebody like Donald Trump at the top that
(50:08):
says you have to believe every single thing right here
or else. You were excommunicated and we're going to try
to destroy your life necessarily.
Speaker 3 (50:15):
It's not really Well, I've looked at the way people
would really get upset with you if you had anything
negative to say about President Biden when he was the one.
Speaker 5 (50:25):
That we should have been speaking out about.
Speaker 13 (50:27):
The most right, And I completely agree with you. Actually,
I think one of the challenges in that regard that
we have to address in our politics is that we
have created a culture where people are told repeatedly what
they want to hear instead of what they need to hear.
Speaker 8 (50:42):
Right.
Speaker 13 (50:43):
What I believe happened in that regard is, look, when
you're in the White House, and I've seen this in
different ways, either in the White House or in other places,
you want to keep your job, and the best way
to do that is ensure that you get this person
reelected again. And I think what happens far too often
in our politics is that people get too comfortable and
they just tell people what they want to hear instead
of what they need to hear, over and over and
(51:04):
over and over again. And frankly, part of why I'm
doing this is because what I met with Resident Biden
in twenty twenty three for an hour in the Oval Office,
and one of the things that that right happened to you, Well,
it was a good meeting, and it was it was
after he created the Office of Gun Violence Prevention at
the White House that saw about the twenty five percent
(51:24):
reduction in gun homicides around the country. Part of the
challenges though, you're not gonna hear about the shooting that
doesn't happen. But I was meeting with him in that regard.
Speaker 5 (51:31):
Did you see the decline in him then?
Speaker 13 (51:33):
So that was one of the challenges is I didn't
see it personally. What I wish I had told him though,
because he asked me how do I win back younger voters.
What I wish I had told him, which, of course
I would have been laughed out the room if I
said this was that he shouldn't run for office again.
I know, but that's what needed to be said.
Speaker 7 (51:51):
I was saying that everybody was so mad at me,
and but that's part.
Speaker 13 (51:54):
Of the problem. Is we need to have a more
open conversation about these things, because we also created an
environment where people felt like they were ex community if
they dared to say anything about it. And I to
some extent, I understand people were afraid about potentially re
electing Donald Trump, but ultimately look at where we ended up.
Sure right, we need to build a culture inside of
our party where we are telling people what they need
to hear and not just what they want to hear.
(52:15):
That's what I did when I ran for vice chair.
When I ran for this position, I said, you know
what I'm not gonna do. I'm not going to be
a politician. I'm not going to contort myself into some
pretzel of whatever you want to see. If some bolkmarrage
of you know, when they asked me should Joe Biden
have dropped out? I said, yes, he should have obviously.
And then when they asked me why we lost the election,
I said why did we lose the election? Voters told
(52:37):
us two things. They said, prices are too high and
Joe Biden is too old. And we said to them,
with a power of two billion dollars behind us, no
he's not, Yes he is. And then we said no
they aren't. Look at the stock market. And if a
majority of people don't have that exactly, and if you
tell people not to believe their eyeballs or their wallets,
you're going to lose them. And I think what we
need to build in a party is a culture of
(52:58):
addressing the realities that people are actually going through and
what they're actually feeling, not just what a chart is
telling us that they should be feeling, but actually listening
to them.
Speaker 3 (53:07):
Okay, I'm just going to throw some names at you,
and because because these people to me represent what the
next generation of Democrats could look like, I just want
to know what's your thoughts of them?
Speaker 5 (53:15):
Are Governor Wes Moore and Maryland.
Speaker 13 (53:17):
I think Governor Wes Moore has done a pretty amazing job.
He actually has a really cool program that I don't
think has been talked about very much where he works.
I think it's called like the mid Career Program, where
they'd taken a class of several hundred young people and
put them into different jobs around the state of Maryland,
and it really helps get them started in their lives
and their careers and like help turn things around. And
there have even been people that have gone into this
program that I've heard about that started out literally homeless
(53:40):
that now have gone on to get jobs and do
things like that. So that's great. I love Governor Wes Moore.
I will say this much if I can't talk at
all about any potential presidential nominees. I'm not saying that
he is or is not running, but I can't give
any opinion specifically on that people people to judge clearly
was a very good Secretary of Transportation given the situation
(54:03):
that we're in right now, and I think I think
with Pete he represents a level of sanity that I
think people are craving right now. They're tired of the
chaos that I think Donald Trump represents a.
Speaker 5 (54:16):
Lot of the time Pete.
Speaker 13 (54:17):
I don't think people want to have a president that
they have to hear about doing something ridiculous in the
headlines every single day. That is frankly an embarrassment to
our country and internationally as well. So I think Pete
could be great. What I really like about him is that,
and I'm just talking about like future leaders. I'm not
talking about anything about presidential or anything like that.
Speaker 25 (54:37):
To be extremely.
Speaker 5 (54:39):
Democratics.
Speaker 13 (54:40):
What I really like about him is I think he
does an excellent job of talking to people who don't
agree with him.
Speaker 5 (54:46):
Yes, I agree, that is what we need more of.
Speaker 13 (54:48):
That's what I think Pete is really good at representing
is helping to kind of bring people together and talk
to the people that don't agree and explain without compromising
his values what we believe as Democrats, And I think
that's really powerful. Governor Jos Shapiro, you know, I think
with Jos Shapiro, he has a huge amount of favorability
for a reason in Pennsylvania ultimately, and you know, I
think it's interesting as a swing state. They have a
(55:10):
pretty close state legislature as well, and there's been some
great work that they've done on gun violence as well.
Speaker 3 (55:16):
Javna Crockett Jasmine Crockett.
Speaker 4 (55:17):
I love her.
Speaker 6 (55:18):
She is amazing.
Speaker 13 (55:20):
I think that people want to see somebody who fights
and calls up Ultimately. I think that's what Jasmine does.
And we need a hell of a lot more people
that are out there that are willing to do just
that and call people out on the ps and not say,
oh my god, Republicans are going to criticize me for
saying this, screw that. They're going to criticize you no
matter what. So what we should be asking ourselves is
what are we really fighting for? Because we know it matters.
(55:42):
And I think Jasmine is, frankly the type of leader
that we're really looking to support in some senses, Right,
somebody who is out there that frankly doesn't give a
damn with the other side. At least the elected Republicans
in Congress say that say what they believe in, and
at least you know, even if you don't agree with her,
you know what she stands, Yeah, because she makes it
very clear.
Speaker 5 (56:02):
Governor Gretchen Wimer. Part of what was really.
Speaker 13 (56:04):
Great with Gretchen Whitmer and her focus was on infrastructure,
right people. I think Democrats need to do a lot
more of finding the issues that nobody likes and addressing
them in a substantial matter. So part of her campaign
was addressing potholes right, really basic, just saying fix the
damn roads. We need more of that. AOC, I mean,
(56:24):
AOC has been a huge inspiration to me. What I
really like about her is more than anything, that you
clearly know that she believes what she's saying absolutely and
she knows how to communicate on social media because she
grew up with it, she's young. And also she doesn't
you know, she's not out there taking money from special interests.
You know, regardless of whether or not you agree with AOC,
(56:45):
at least you can say that she's not owned by anyone.
Speaker 8 (56:48):
My last name.
Speaker 3 (56:49):
These are people who I believe are the future and
now in the future the Democratic Party.
Speaker 2 (56:54):
John Stuart, John Stuart, John Stuart.
Speaker 13 (56:57):
So what I love about John is I think he
and Donald Trump actually have the same greatest strength. And
this is going to sound controversial, is that they're funny.
But I think with John Stewart, what I like about
him is the same thing that I like about AOC.
He's funny, he says what he believes in, and he
gets done. And I know that because I saw when
(57:17):
they were working on the Packed Acts right that summer,
they were Democrats were working on passing the largest expansion
of veterans healthcare. One of those people that I met,
you know, had worked for the federal government. And now
he is facing a very real chance that his retirement
is going to be cut by several hundred thousand dollars
because of this bill that Republicans are pushing through right now.
And I will never forget when John Stewart showed up
(57:38):
to support those veterans and help get that bill passed,
and it did get passed. Is one of the largest
expansions ever.
Speaker 3 (57:44):
Yeah, it's my hope. And I know you can't say this.
I want him to be president of the United States
of America.
Speaker 8 (57:49):
I really do.
Speaker 3 (57:50):
I think that he is such a fantastic messenger and
he actually knows politics and he cares about people, and
for the way to the country is now and where
the country is going as far as messaging, you need
somebody like him front and center.
Speaker 5 (58:08):
It's my thought.
Speaker 2 (58:09):

All right?
Speaker 5 (59:57):
Now pull that finger out.
Speaker 2 (59:58):
Definitely reading this?
Speaker 7 (01:00:00):
Yeah yeah, yeah. So y'all know, Kid Cuttie testified in
court yesterday during a ditty trial and he's just a
quick recap went down on the stand. So a little
bit of backstory. Kacuttie was dating Cassie in December twenty eleven,
and he had claimed he claimed that he ain't even
know that they was still involved when he was dating her,
but then one day he got a phone call from Cassie,
like yo, he found out about us, and he said,
(01:00:22):
what who was he?
Speaker 25 (01:00:23):
So he turned out to.
Speaker 7 (01:00:24):
Be Diddy, So I know, right, the Diddler. So that
apparently all held brooklues. Right Kiddy alleged that Kadcutty he
got Kad Cutty's address from Cassie What and ABC News
broken down. But before we get to the breakdown and everything,
keep in mind, kid Cutty's name is Scott Meskady. That's
what y'all gonna hear in this report.
Speaker 16 (01:00:43):
Kid Cutty had dated Cassie Ventura, and she testified that
it made Sean Combs jealous and angry.
Speaker 9 (01:00:50):
Meskady testifying about an alleged break in at his house
in twenty eleven, which he says was Comb's showing up
when he wasn't home. Meskadi testified that he had a
tense phone call with Combs where Combs insinuates he was
at Muscudi's home. I said, explicative, you in my house
and he was like, what's up? I was like, expletive,
(01:01:11):
are you in my house? And he said, I just
want to talk to you. I was like, I'm on
my way over right now.
Speaker 25 (01:01:16):
He was like I'm here.
Speaker 2 (01:01:19):
When he arrived, but.
Speaker 16 (01:01:21):
He said Christmas presents he had bought for members of
his family were on wrapped, torn open, and his dog
was locked in the bathroom.
Speaker 2 (01:01:29):
What Yeah.
Speaker 7 (01:01:30):
The interesting thing is they saying, you know, didn't broke
into the house, but it was no signs of forced entry.
So it was like, yo, you just be having your
door open or whatever. I don't know, but it was
no signs of going.
Speaker 5 (01:01:40):
In somebody's house.
Speaker 3 (01:01:40):
And unwrapping Christmas present in the bathroom is a different
level of diabolty.
Speaker 2 (01:01:45):
Yes, it is.
Speaker 7 (01:01:45):
He like a big ass kid, like I got to
rewrap all this. He didn't take anything.
Speaker 5 (01:01:49):
He was like it was trash, trash ass presence.
Speaker 2 (01:01:55):
He said it was snail bags when I watched yesterday,
trash ass presence.
Speaker 8 (01:01:59):
I had all this.
Speaker 4 (01:02:01):
But you know what Cutty said. He was really mad
because he said, did he did something to his dog?
He said, what did did he do to the dog?
He just locked him in the bathroom or just locked
him in that?
Speaker 23 (01:02:08):
Yeah.
Speaker 7 (01:02:08):
Yeah, they also.
Speaker 3 (01:02:11):
I know where going but goddamn that I wasn't going down.
That's a different crime. Must get threw him under the jail. Listen,
they had threw Diddy under the jail. They find out
Diddy was out here diddling dogs.
Speaker 5 (01:02:25):
I'm telling you right now to get all the women.
I promise you White America ain't gonna let you diddle
no dog.
Speaker 7 (01:02:30):
A dog was crazy.
Speaker 2 (01:02:31):
I wasn't talking about diddling dogs.
Speaker 5 (01:02:32):
Go ahead.
Speaker 7 (01:02:33):
So they also covered the alleged car explosion.
Speaker 9 (01:02:36):
ABC News recapped that too, Meskadi describing an alleged twenty
twelve incident where his Porsche nine eleven convertible had been
set on fire. It looks like the top of my
Porsche was cut open, and that's where they inserted the
Molotov cocktail. Mescady testified Arson is part of the racketeering
conspiracy count Comb's faces. Cassie Ventura previously testified that Combs
(01:02:57):
threatened to have Kid Cutty's car blown up.
Speaker 16 (01:03:00):
Kid Cutty's car fire has been talked about for years,
but it's significant now because federal prosecutors are trying to
convince the jury that Sean Combs used Arson as part
of a criminal enterprise. That's one of the predicate acts
of the racketeering conspiracy charge.
Speaker 5 (01:03:19):
Combs denies it. Now, how did they know that it was?
Diddy was a Molotov cocktail and it's a rock bottle.
Speaker 7 (01:03:24):
Funny, they didn't. They didn't get there. But look, I
just want to say, not that I'm justifying, you know
that it's not a car explosion, but when you hear
a car explosion, you think the car boom, Michael Angelo
Bassett dead on the way now. But a Molotov cocktail
is not really like it's not like a bomb, like
a bomb bomb like it's.
Speaker 5 (01:03:47):
Even though you could call that arson.
Speaker 2 (01:03:48):
Well, if the fire gets to certain parts of the car,
it would have exploded.
Speaker 7 (01:03:51):
But the car, Yeah, the car did not explode though
definitely still Yeah, but you know the rumors that we've
been hearing over the years, I'm like, oh, are you
know he really blew up this guy car. I'm thinking
about the whole Yeah, the whole time. All right. So then, oh,
and I just do you want to clarify I said
that did he said that he got the address from Cassie.
(01:04:13):
No kid cutt. He testified and said that Cassie gave
Diddy the his address. All right, cool, So after that happened, right,
they met up to have a man and man conversation
at SOHO and this was the conversation.
Speaker 9 (01:04:25):
Shortly after that alleged incident. Mescadi says he and Combs
met at the Soho House in Los Angeles.
Speaker 16 (01:04:31):
He said he remembered walking into a room with all
sorts of glass windows and Sean Combs staring out the window,
his hands behind his back, looking like what Kid Cutty
called a Marvel's super villain, but he said Combs's demeanor
was very calm.
Speaker 9 (01:04:47):
Mescady said he told Colmbs that Cassie told him she
and Combs were broken up. When the meeting ended, he says,
we stood up, shook hands, and as I was shaking
his hand, I said, what are we going to do
about my car? He looked right back, look at me
very cold stare and said, I don't know what you're
talking about.
Speaker 16 (01:05:04):
And remember Cashi Ventura had sent her mom an email
just before Christmas in twenty eleven saying that Colmes had
threatened to harm both her and Scott the Scudding.
Speaker 3 (01:05:17):
Well, I'll tell you what, man, I can't believe that
y'all are calling Kid Cutty a snitch like Kid Cuddy
is not a street dude. He's a law abiding, tax pay,
tax paying citizen. I've seen him in a wedding dress
before he wearss he wears mass Gara like Man on
the Moon will absolutely turn the man on the stand,
And there's nothing wrong with that.
Speaker 5 (01:05:36):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (01:05:36):
The funniest thing about it is, I don't know if
you've seen the part where he was like when I
heard that, I said, did he let's meet up and fight?
Speaker 2 (01:05:41):
And then he said he thought about it. It was like, Noah,
I don't want to fight. I'm calling now.
Speaker 4 (01:05:44):
And then he called what he said, somebody just blew
up my car. You're right, he's a civilian, Yeah, civilian.
Speaker 7 (01:05:50):
So then all that kid cut He claims that he
realized that he got played by the both of them.
Laura was in Caught yesterday and she said, kay Cutt,
he had a calm demeanor the whole entire time. And
then yesterday after court k Cutty she had a verse
about the whole experience of him testifying.
Speaker 28 (01:06:04):
I just want to say, man, I'm just seeing all
the love and support and I just want to say
thank you so much.
Speaker 21 (01:06:09):
Man.
Speaker 28 (01:06:10):
People have been hitting me up the past week, just
checking in and and even today and just it really means.
Speaker 2 (01:06:19):
A lot to me.
Speaker 28 (01:06:19):
Man.
Speaker 8 (01:06:20):
You guys are the best. I love y'all. This is
a stressful situation.
Speaker 5 (01:06:24):
I'm glad it's behind me.
Speaker 8 (01:06:25):
Yeah, I love y'all.
Speaker 28 (01:06:27):
Man.
Speaker 3 (01:06:28):
The only thing kit Cutty did wrong was not tell
when it first happened. I'm shocked that he didn't tell
when the first but he did.
Speaker 2 (01:06:36):
He did call the police. Remember, he did call the police.
Speaker 4 (01:06:38):
He just doesn't know what.
Speaker 2 (01:06:39):
They still don't know if it was Diddy, But.
Speaker 7 (01:06:44):
You know, the Milotime cocktail have been there, so you
know what was up. No, I'm just saying Meek Mill again.
Breakfast Club. Then got to this man, we are always
up here.
Speaker 8 (01:06:53):
Doing some same week.
Speaker 7 (01:06:55):
Well, you was off yesterday, so me Charllemagne.
Speaker 2 (01:06:57):
Lauren, he says, Charlamagne here.
Speaker 10 (01:06:59):
You know me?
Speaker 2 (01:07:00):
Man.
Speaker 7 (01:07:00):
Look play this audio. Man, this is this is us.
This is why.
Speaker 2 (01:07:03):
Nobody was talking about me in this situation.
Speaker 5 (01:07:05):
Did anybody talk about meeting caught?
Speaker 2 (01:07:07):
No, nobody talking about you, Meek.
Speaker 29 (01:07:10):
Why to Meek's defense in the beginning, when I'm lawsuits
dropped and they was mentioning the rapper and all that
people was like was me.
Speaker 7 (01:07:18):
That was like years ago.
Speaker 2 (01:07:20):
I feel like nobody cares. Nobody thinking about you met.
Speaker 7 (01:07:22):
Wait a minute, he was like, and we did not
dress alike. Yo, we wasn't twinning.
Speaker 3 (01:07:30):
You know what it is when you are at home
on your phone and your your timeline is constantly filled
with pictures of you and then dressed it like, and
people saying things about you and d you think the
whole world is talking about it. That's your small bubble meek.
That sound like I'm giving someund advice.
Speaker 7 (01:07:47):
Yeah, yeah it was. But he he didn't like that,
right because he commented to us, y'all mad, because I
speak up for myself, y'all forgetting y'all. Two women are
new reporters. I've been saving communities and helping families ten
plus years. We don't find the word of talkers. Just
shouldn't have your head as damn I ain't ain't say nothing.
Speaker 5 (01:08:06):
You know what's funny is you ain't saying my head
ain't nappy.
Speaker 7 (01:08:08):
Said that he got me on that me and me
got the same bush. You know what I'm saying, Yes,
the same Frederick Douglass that he had rapping outside the
other night. But I do understand, like you said, when
you you constantly see me meet this and meet that,
and yo, he he this and that, and he got
a fourteen year old son. He said he will never
let fake rumors about his name or manhood linger and
(01:08:30):
be silent. But his son had to see all of
this ish play out and deal with it in school.
So you know, we're just gonna send prayers to you
and your son and offline bro.
Speaker 3 (01:08:39):
Yeah me captain right to speak out if he wants to.
I just be wondering why.
Speaker 5 (01:08:43):
But you know what I was thinking.
Speaker 3 (01:08:44):
I was thinking about this last night in regards to
the whole Diddy Cassie thing, listening to the Kid Cuddy testimony.
When you're Diddy, why would you crash out over a
person you just smutting out? M you got other men
smashing the you're letting her get passed around. But on
the flip side, you mad, she's sleeping with other men.
Speaker 2 (01:09:02):
But that was the allegedly he could. He could only
have her, so so he mad that she didn't let
him watch her. And Cuddy Yeah, like I think, I
guess it wasn't the punisher.
Speaker 7 (01:09:11):
He would have to be supervised, Like he would have
to be the one supervising these sexual freak offs. If
she's doing it, like she can't go out and have
somebody by herself. Did he got to be supervised I.
Speaker 3 (01:09:21):
Just don't understand why you would be crashing out over somebody.
You You just you're literally just treating like a whole yep,
like that's not your wife, that's not the mother and
your kids. You're not treating that woman with no dignity,
no respect. But get you out here allegedly crashing out,
committing real crimes, allegedly because of her.
Speaker 5 (01:09:36):
I don't understand that.
Speaker 4 (01:09:37):
I also think it was who it was is the
fact that these other gentlemen were in the industry. Remember,
he allegedly got mad and that she was He thought
she was dating Chris Brown and you'll kid Cuddy and
then they said something about Michael B. Jordan's So he
was mad at the industry, you know.
Speaker 3 (01:09:50):

It seeming like they're trying to compete with parties and
women's name all. Yeah, it just seemed like a competition.
It's just too much.
Speaker 7 (01:11:14):
It seemed like a show.
Speaker 17 (01:11:15):
I wish that path was.
Speaker 2 (01:11:17):
That's it.
Speaker 17 (01:11:17):
He say what you have to say now fall back,
because then that will prove his point.
Speaker 3 (01:11:22):
Let me ask you a question. Should we blame the
Bronx for this? Because you know the crazy people in
America do come from the Bronx and all the what
we do, blame the Bronx get blame?
Speaker 17 (01:11:32):
Does the bron get any blame? I want to say

For being racist and sexist, but they have a slog
like a banister that is not in our house, and
it stands that stuff and the banister.
Speaker 21 (01:12:14):

is there going to be any backlash to you for
getting on the radio and calling his donkey today?

Speaker 20 (01:16:58):

Speaker 3 (01:17:02):
I love sanitation works. We need y'all out here.
Speaker 25 (01:17:04):
Well, I love you.

Thank you for calling.

Speaker 3 (01:17:18):
That's why with y'all every Friday we do the People's
Donkey Man. You can call up and tell us who
you want to give the biggest y'all to. You can

Breakfast Club.
Speaker 29 (01:17:30):
Yeah, you can go to the iHeart Radio app, hit
the talk back button and talk to us even when
we're off air.
Speaker 3 (01:17:35):
There you go, so do that and you can hear
yourself on Donkey of Today on Fridays. Now when we
come back, Leniebni will be here.
Speaker 5 (01:17:42):
Lene Venie.
Speaker 3 (01:17:43):
She's started on Instagram with a series called Parking Lot Pimping,
where she gives just a lot of commentary on social
issues and political issues that are happening in our society.
Speaker 5 (01:17:50):
That has led to her having.
Speaker 3 (01:17:51):
Her own showing remote called the People's Brief, and she'll
be here to talk about it when we come back.
Speaker 5 (01:17:55):
It's the Breakfast Club, the Breakfast Club.
Speaker 4 (01:18:01):
Warning everybody, it's the j Envy Just Hilarius, Charlamagne to God,
we are the Breakfast Club.
Speaker 2 (01:18:06):
We got a special guest in the building, Lonee for me.
Speaker 5 (01:18:09):
What's happening in Lenae?
Speaker 2 (01:18:10):
How are you?
Speaker 25 (01:18:11):
I'm good?
Speaker 2 (01:18:12):
You know, I'm sure that y'all see Lenee all the time.
Speaker 3 (01:18:14):
Her parking lot pimping episodes have come across your feed
in some way, shape or form. But now you got
to show called the People's Brief. Yeah, on Revote Tuesday,
the nine pm. What's the difference between the People's Brief
and Parking Lot Pimping?
Speaker 24 (01:18:24):
Oh?
Speaker 29 (01:18:25):
One thing, we got more time, it's forty five minutes.
It's also not so you know every week news headline.
It's more so evergreen things that are happening in the news,
but things that we can talk about over the course
of time.
Speaker 25 (01:18:37):
Beuse they affect us every day, and just giving people
more tools.
Speaker 29 (01:18:41):
I feel like on social media, I've always tried to
be more information heavy and just provide a positive outlook.
But now that we got more time, we want to
try to provide resources too and answers to questions.
Speaker 25 (01:18:53):
And I just complain, how different is.
Speaker 7 (01:18:55):
It from parking lot pimping.
Speaker 29 (01:18:57):
I won't say it's too different. I still get to
say what I want to say. We what TV fourteen,
so let's cuss in. But the team over there want
to do what I want to do, and that's like
give everybody the truth and be helpful. We kind of
take the same oath doctors do, do no harm and
as much as we can. Yeah, the tone is the same,
(01:19:19):
but it's really cool because it's not it's newsy, but
it's not. I never taken a traditional approach to things.
So it's like a mix of sixty Minutes and John
Tonight with John Oliver, the Daily Show, a little bit
of Amber.
Speaker 25 (01:19:32):
Ruffin but with me.
Speaker 7 (01:19:33):
Yeah, it's well rounded.
Speaker 25 (01:19:34):
It's very well rounded. We have a lot of fun.
Speaker 29 (01:19:36):
The first couple of episode, the first episode this week Tuesday,
and I had Angela Rye on as my first guest.
Speaker 7 (01:19:42):
That was amazing.
Speaker 5 (01:19:43):
Angel.
Speaker 29 (01:19:44):
Yeah, we get to get out in the field, do
something on the street. But a lot of good people
come through and we have a lot of fun.
Speaker 5 (01:19:50):
Do you write from a place of anger or hope
or exhaustion?
Speaker 25 (01:19:56):
All three of them? And it's funny you say that.
Did y'all see inside out?
Speaker 23 (01:20:00):
Oh?
Speaker 4 (01:20:00):
Hell yeah?
Speaker 29 (01:20:02):
Okay, if you've seen them, then you get the concept.
I have my friends say like, who's at our leaderboard?
And everybody said my top three are anger, discussed, and joy.
Because of the way that I see things, I just
I'm real big on character above anything, and the way
you like contribute to society above anything. So more often
than not, I'm disgusted, and more often than not that
(01:20:22):
makes me exhausted. And you know, a lot of things
make me anger. But I also think anger is a
baalid emotion and it doesn't always have to present in
a way that is heavy.
Speaker 25 (01:20:30):
It's just what it is. Like, I'm a black woman
in America.
Speaker 29 (01:20:33):
A lot of things make me upset, and I should
be able to say that without being made to feel
like I have to cover up my emotions in any
particular way. But I think the method of storytelling me
uses combines all those things in a beautiful way that
also shows that we're more than our anger and more
than our joy. More than our exhaustion, more than our disgust,
and we can be all things at one time and
still be full functioning members of society.
Speaker 7 (01:20:56):
How did you end up a revolt? How did that?
Speaker 11 (01:20:58):
You know?
Speaker 25 (01:20:59):
Good people speaking my name in good rooms.
Speaker 29 (01:21:01):
I've been very blessed to have a good team no
matter what I'm working on, and they've been fighting for
me in different rooms. I've been pitching different versions of shows,
whether it's scripted unscripted, for the past five years, and
nothing's just been the right fit. But as I said,
I be in tune with the Lord, and he told
me at the end of the last year to stop
trying to force things and to just put stuff down
(01:21:22):
and let him work. And so as I said, okay,
wasn't even expecting it. Two weeks later got a call
and said Revolte wants to.
Speaker 25 (01:21:28):
Give you a show.
Speaker 29 (01:21:29):
I was like what, Wow, okay, and my hands were open,
so I was ready to receive it. So that's how
we ended up together.
Speaker 5 (01:21:35):
Well, I wonder for somebody like you, Lene, what do
you do when you feel like your words on enough?
Speaker 25 (01:21:39):
I don't feel like my word's on enough.
Speaker 29 (01:21:41):
I feel like I do what I'm supposed to do,
and I'm okay with that my contribution as long as
I do my best, I'm okay with that whatever the
result is, because whatever I was supposed to contribute is
all I was supposed to contribute, because it's not just
up to me, it's not just up to anybody. Like
we all put in, we all have a piece to
the puzzle to create the fuller picture. And sometimes it
(01:22:02):
may feel like it didn't hit the way you was
supposed to hit, But you got to give things time.
Speaker 25 (01:22:07):
Like the sows.
Speaker 29 (01:22:08):
The seeds you sow always have their time for harvest.
And I've just learned to be content and patient with
my contribution.
Speaker 3 (01:22:14):
So it's sometimes you feel like it's like a call
to action, almost like you might activate the person who
might go out there and actually get active due.
Speaker 25 (01:22:22):
Yeah, that's absolutely what I feel like. My lane is.
Speaker 29 (01:22:25):
I feel like I am My job is sent part
information to bring as many people to the table as possible,
to make them invested, to make them excited, and those
are the people that go out and do something with it.
Even when I left my master's program, my professors told
me I was only going to be able to make
money or make a life for myself if I continue
to get my PhD, and that's not what I felt
called to do. I immediately wanted to go and share
(01:22:45):
with very young people all the things that I learned
in my program that I had to pay twenty five
thousand dollars and take out loans to get with all
these real stuffy people that may not have the best
methods as far as connecting with the general public. But
I was like, if I can impart this in high
school students, they can apply to college, they can go
on career paths that with the knowledge, with a fuller
(01:23:08):
knowledge of their capacity and ability and vocabulary and nuance
to be change agents. So that's all I've ever wanted
to do, and that's what I'm doing, and I'm grateful
for that.
Speaker 7 (01:23:17):
And as a spellman grade, congratulations, I love that. What
part of that HBC you experience has shaped your voice?
Speaker 29 (01:23:26):
Well, at Spelman, we got a SAand it's my choice,
and I choose to change the world. And it's funny,
I've said this, I've told this story so many times,
but when I was first applying, I had teachers at
my high school telling me they didn't think I should go.
They didn't think that I would get in because it
was too expensive, that it wasn't.
Speaker 25 (01:23:42):
The real world.
Speaker 29 (01:23:43):
But we shouldn't be encouraging our kids in masks to
go to school to learn how to plug into the
way things already exist. Like we need to be disruptives,
we need to be change agents. And that's what my
HBCU did for me. I was a psychology student, but
every single class as you take, whether it's the biology
of women, whether it's math, finite math, or whatever computer science,
(01:24:06):
you take it through the lens of black feminism. And
so we have advantage point that allows us to see
everybody's pain and it just makes us. That's why we
be the best advo guests for the job most of
the time, most most suited for the job most of
the time, because we see people. And so my HBC
experience really allowed me to see what people need in
order to feel seeing and I try to put that
(01:24:27):
in my storytelling as well.
Speaker 3 (01:24:29):
How do you navigate being both a political educator but
also a cultural influencer and an algorithm driven work.
Speaker 29 (01:24:40):
Well, politics was never my game, it was never my choice.
You couldn't touch me with politics with a ten foot pole.
It just became necessary. So, like I said, I've always
been driven by what's necessary, and I started this work
to really be steeped in pop culture and connect that
through to history through an interdisciplinary lens. But as I began,
I started twenty twenty, so politics was just like thrust
(01:25:03):
upon us in a real way, and so I challenged
myself to say, like, Okay, I know that we need
to understand this, so how can I incorporate this into
what I do? And it just became even more and
more and more necessary. So I just think because I
speak to people like we cousins, like we family, because
I don't try to hit people over the head with it,
and because I, like I let myself feel all the
things like a regular person feels, the algorithm can't beat.
Speaker 25 (01:25:28):
The content that I'm putting out.
Speaker 29 (01:25:30):
Yeah, Like I draw people regardless, and people sharing it
in their family group chats, Grandmas and aunties and kids
in seventh grade and high school students all like talking
about what was on the parking lot this week. And
I'm really grateful for that because it's not about me
and my parking lot. It's really about the information being shared.
So I'm grateful for the anointing that's been put on me.
That's allowed no matter what's changed in the social media landscape,
(01:25:53):
people to come to the parking lot every Friday.
Speaker 4 (01:25:54):
We're still kicking it with line Vani. She has a
show on Revolts.
Speaker 3 (01:25:57):
Charlemagne was one political issue you think just we've become
too performative about and not solution or into enough about.
Speaker 29 (01:26:04):
I think it's sustaining period, sustainability period in terms of
how we organize, in terms of how we fight back
against political oppression, because we often wait the four year
cycle to begin to complain about what we don't like
about candidates and then are upset when we're not able
to show up in full force and vote together, and
(01:26:25):
that make a difference. I don't think that we give
ourselves the opportunity for our work to actually for our
work to return to us in a good way, because unfortunately,
a lot of times we are motivated by rage and
sadness and we want to get active when things hit
close to home. But something that's always hitting close to
home for everybody, and if we don't learn to act
as a community and have this sort of sustain Garrison
(01:26:47):
Hayes said in a segment in My episode this past Tuesday,
he said, these people don't let up. They've been strategizing,
they don't stop strategizing, So why should we, And especially
if we're already playing catch up, Like it's never a
day when we should just be like, oh, the struggle
will be here tomorrow. But that means you should also
be strategizing for tomorrow. It's and it's not to say
(01:27:07):
that your life has to be completely shaped by that,
because I say often like I don't my friends think
I'm single now, and they're like, so what you want
like a Mark lamont Hill.
Speaker 25 (01:27:17):
No, Like, no shade to Mark.
Speaker 29 (01:27:18):
He's great, But I don't need that to encompass my
entire life, Like I'm still a human being.
Speaker 25 (01:27:23):
So I'm not saying that you.
Speaker 29 (01:27:24):
Gotta live, breathe, die, fight the power, but you do
have to have some things ingrained in the way that
you move about your day period.
Speaker 25 (01:27:33):
To understand that the work never stops. So you gotta
find that balance.
Speaker 7 (01:27:36):
And for you, I want somebody who knows that women
can have babies. Oh, okay, only women can have babies.
Speaker 29 (01:27:43):
I just want to let you know that interesting there
are other people who can have babies. Okay, yeah, I
mean if they have a uterus, they can have babies,
but they just must identify as women. Ohky to two
different things, Like you can be biologically female, but you
can't be biologically woman.
Speaker 25 (01:27:57):
This woman is a gender construct, no social construct. If
you got a uteriasy, you can have a baby.
Speaker 7 (01:28:03):
Yes, that's the point. If you have a uterusy, you
can have a baby.
Speaker 25 (01:28:06):
Okay, cool, Yeah we agree on that.
Speaker 3 (01:28:09):
And has the Democratic Party tried to co op your
platform or methodge because I was reading this article in
the New York Times yesterday and it was the headline
is Democrats throw money at a problem, but it basically
is out there paying influences.
Speaker 5 (01:28:22):
And they're trying to figure out how to utilize the internet.
Speaker 2 (01:28:24):
And you deliver message in the game.
Speaker 29 (01:28:27):
I think people got to understand is Republicans have been
using people with a microphone for years to just disseminate misinformation.
Speaker 25 (01:28:34):
So it's not even like.
Speaker 29 (01:28:36):
That's not a tool that shouldn't be used because we
do have to have some opposition. They haven't tried to
buy me. No, I only talk to people I want
to talk to. There's no amount of money, there's no
check that just would make me want to like jump
on the bandwagon, especially because I have critiques. I gotta
be able to say whatever I want to say. And
the Democratic Party definitely got some things that need to
(01:28:56):
be worked on. I had the honor of working with
some good people the CBC, And that's the other thing.
Like we live in America, there's no institution that's got
it right or has always had it right from jumps.
So I don't sit here and act like I absolutely
have to agree with something a body has done since
its conception. But if I'm working with people who I
understand are genuine and their efforts, like, I'm down with
(01:29:18):
that because, like I said, I'm trying to be solution
oriented and do no harm and as much as I can.
Speaker 5 (01:29:23):
And you mentioned Garrison earlier. I like Gason a lot too.
Speaker 3 (01:29:26):
Have you all ever thought about being in politics.
Speaker 17 (01:29:30):
Of the world.
Speaker 29 (01:29:33):
I'm not sure where Garrison has planned. I have mess
some influencers who are interested in that work. I just
don't think it's personally my calling. Like I said, I
think my role is to inspire and my role is
to work alongside. When we look at people who have
been a part of our story as far as Black
history goes, we got people in every industry, and I
think we forget that it's.
Speaker 25 (01:29:52):
Not just about politics. It's also about who is singing songs.
Speaker 29 (01:29:56):
It's also about who's acting on TV sceriens because even
like the breakfast Club, who's listening to you guys speak
every day like we all have a role in getting
people engaged in a process, and we have to be
in the marketplace, in mass and in different ways to
be able to exercise enough influence to get people focused
back in on the problem. So I'm just one of
those people. And I consider myself more of an artist
(01:30:16):
than anything, a storyteller. As I said, I'm getting back
into my poetry and spucking word. But that's what I
feel called and.
Speaker 7 (01:30:24):
Sat to do.
Speaker 2 (01:30:25):
When you asked Thelman, what was your major psychology?
Speaker 5 (01:30:28):
You want to be a therapist psycho?
Speaker 2 (01:30:29):
Absolutely not.
Speaker 25 (01:30:30):
I wanted to understand people.
Speaker 3 (01:30:32):
Ooh yeah, so you're major in psychologist just to be
able to understand people?
Speaker 5 (01:30:35):
Absolutely dope. What did you want to understand about people?
Speaker 8 (01:30:39):
Exactly?
Speaker 25 (01:30:40):
Behavior? What drives behavior? Also what affects behavior?
Speaker 29 (01:30:44):
And you find out, you know, one of the biggest
arguments is nature versus nurture. You just find out all
the things that contextualize those two things, whether it's your upbringing,
whether it's like in the things you might Inherit also
like what socioeconomic stressors that have affected your family long
term that can result and yield in specific behaviors or
even psychotic breaks or what have. You have to get
(01:31:05):
too deep into that kind of stuff. But at the
end of the day, and I also was a person
I grew up in the Deep South Baptist, I didn't
really understand that much about therapy, and I remember in
one of my first classes, I was like, yeah, that's
cool and all I want to learn about bipoliticist order,
but like black people don't really get that right, and
it was like.
Speaker 25 (01:31:23):
No, girl, we all are exposed to these sort of things.
Speaker 29 (01:31:26):
But anyway, I think at the end of the day,
it just really helped me understand emotions and like I said,
the validity of them and giving them space to exist
and what can trigger you on what can't, and then
also how outside stressors like race, like gender, like sexuality
or whatever also contribute to a person's well being. And
(01:31:47):
I think saying it right now, I think what I
just want most is for Black people to be well
no matter what you look like, no matter who you with,
no matter how you move throught your life. I want
us to be well and I want us to be
invested in the wellness of one another, because the object
goals of opressions to make us sick, to make us distracted,
And if we are focused on one another's wellness and wholeness.
Speaker 25 (01:32:07):
Then we can be stronger than everything.
Speaker 3 (01:32:08):
Yeah, what's the moment when you realized your influence was
having real world consequences?
Speaker 25 (01:32:12):
For better all words, real world consequences.
Speaker 29 (01:32:15):
Honestly, because I started during the pandemic, we was all inside,
so I didn't get to really get to see people.
But when we started to trickle back outside, and unfortunately
Atlanta was among the first to get back outside. When
people started meeting me and just like crying, like talking
about like how either I changed their perspective on something,
or I helped heal a relationship in their family, or
even really what it was. I think I was invited
(01:32:38):
to speak somewhere at the school, and an older woman
about sixty years old. She took me to the side
and she thanked me for saying things she never got
to say when she was my age, And that was
really beautiful.
Speaker 25 (01:32:48):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (01:32:49):
Well, Lenae with Mee hosted the People's Brief every Tuesday
at nine pm on Revolt and I guess we get
parking a lot of people when we can.
Speaker 25 (01:32:55):
Yeah, for sure.
Speaker 29 (01:32:57):
Where they follow you at, Oh, you can follow me
everywhere at you can tap into the show of Revolt TV.
Speaker 25 (01:33:03):
You can also watch us at.

Speaker 33 (01:33:48):
Yeah, you need to tell them to send them to you.
Speaker 32 (01:33:51):
But anyway, we have a lot to get into because
it's a lot going on in the rap world right now.
People online are calling it Joey versus the West Coast,
Joey versus twenty Joey has been rapping and I've been
here for it. I've really been enjoying this battle. So
let's kick it off. I'm gonna just do the most
recent records.
Speaker 5 (01:34:09):
From the battle telling people who the battle is.
Speaker 3 (01:34:11):
For those who don't know the battle, I mean, it's
really Joey Badass versus Raybon.
Speaker 33 (01:34:15):
Is that what you narrowing it down?
Speaker 5 (01:34:16):
Toted?
Speaker 33 (01:34:17):
Yes, well it was really. It started in December with
Joey kind.
Speaker 32 (01:34:21):
Of coming at Kendrick like this whole time, Joey is
really trying to get at Kendrick.
Speaker 33 (01:34:26):
Kendrick is not responding. You know, Kendrick's on tourist is
mine of his business.
Speaker 32 (01:34:29):
So Rayon, Yes, Rayvon has responded, but reason has also responded.
Speaker 2 (01:34:35):
As well, and didn't have a reason.
Speaker 33 (01:34:38):
Everybody's reason is they got to wrap the West.
Speaker 32 (01:34:41):
Okay, you know people, it's it's getting like not territorial, regional. Yes,
so regional rap is back, and let's start with Joey
Badass crashed them.
Speaker 3 (01:34:50):
You know what this is good because all this reminded
me was Damn, I used to really like Joey Badass,
And it's not like like I dislike him now. He
just you know, I just haven't heard a project in
a while. I think the last thing he put out.
Speaker 33 (01:35:01):
Was a two thousand and you like that project.
Speaker 9 (01:35:03):
I like.
Speaker 2 (01:35:04):
I like all American badass, like nineteen ninety nine. I
like Joey bad ass as an artist, but bad as busy.
Speaker 5 (01:35:09):
He got into his acting bag, but just just reminded.
Speaker 3 (01:35:11):
Me, like yo joy, he can't wrap joe like that.
Last week too, when I saw the ass Soul freestyle
with him and Big Sean.
Speaker 33 (01:35:18):
Full Cipher with Fire somebody else from the West.
Speaker 3 (01:35:22):
As long as it stays like this, that was funny though.
When Joey said that there's some guy named ass Cheeks
coming to him.
Speaker 9 (01:35:29):
That was.
Speaker 3 (01:35:31):
When you look at the name, you like a cheeks.
If you don't say a cheeks, it doesn't look like
it could be ass cheeks.
Speaker 32 (01:35:36):
But now, but now, Rayvon's trying to insinuate that, like
Joey Badass is gay because it's partying with Diddy.
Speaker 33 (01:35:45):
I mean, let's let's get into it.
Speaker 7 (01:35:47):
This is Rayvaughn's Golden Knife.
Speaker 3 (01:35:49):
Can't I can't call it golden knife? He said he's
standing next to did he should have called it brown eye?
Speaker 7 (01:35:54):
That's cheeks?
Speaker 20 (01:35:55):
No?
Speaker 2 (01:35:55):
No, no, oh, my goodness, Raymond the Good to Bad
and Something. That album is the good God.
Speaker 32 (01:36:07):
I just want to highlightkyd Cash because this was actually
a really really fired freestyle that he wrote one two
he's actually from New York because people are saying it's
just Joey when it's not just Joey.
Speaker 33 (01:36:18):
There's other spinners.
Speaker 32 (01:36:18):
And I think Kyle did the best and he dropped
Nixon the sixth to day that the next one, So
let's get into it.
Speaker 4 (01:36:24):
I'm going off too.
Speaker 7 (01:36:25):
Yeah, that sounds like something you would have said that
Laurence shell Man put more bubbs and weaves.
Speaker 33 (01:36:35):
Yees No, that's that's ky.
Speaker 32 (01:36:37):
And I see a lot of people online saying like
nobody cares about this g league rap, and I just
I really hate that narrative.
Speaker 33 (01:36:45):
I think it's unfair and it's not helping, Like this
is healthy.
Speaker 2 (01:36:48):
Yeah, it's healthy if you like hip hop. It is
healthy if you like rap.
Speaker 3 (01:36:52):
I just happened to be a person who has been
bumping the good, the bad, and the Dolomnue. So I'm
already on rabon and I'm a person that's always bump
Joey Badass, So you know those two I'm in.
Speaker 5 (01:37:03):
I'm all in for.
Speaker 33 (01:37:03):
Why is it just those so you gotta reasons?
Speaker 5 (01:37:05):
I'm old, I gotta focus.
Speaker 2 (01:37:07):
What about reason I have?
Speaker 3 (01:37:08):
I didn't have a reason to listen to the reason
I mean, and it wasn't even I just didn't And
I like, I like all the lyrical exercise. And I'm
not saying I'm not gonna listen. I'm just saying my
first priority was Ravon and Joey bad as I've been
looking to them when they drive.
Speaker 2 (01:37:20):
Okay, everybody else that's.
Speaker 32 (01:37:22):
Involved, No, this is Kai has getting a lot of
new followers, people calling him like the.
Speaker 3 (01:37:27):
M v P.
Speaker 7 (01:37:28):
You put me on him, yest listening to him, So
that's that's dope, lovely, and it's cool, it's peaceful.
Speaker 3 (01:37:33):
It seemed like they just doing it for sport. It's
lyrical exercise. It ain't nothing crazy going on. I haven't
heard anybody really disrespect nobody's family and nothing like that.
Speaker 5 (01:37:41):
Calling somebody gay, that's.
Speaker 33 (01:37:42):
Regular, that's regular, regular to you, and envy that's regular?
Speaker 17 (01:37:48):
What you mean by that?
Speaker 7 (01:37:50):
That ain't regular to him? He said, don't do that.
Speaker 3 (01:37:52):
And hip hop being called gay in a rap battle,
being called a snitch, being called.
Speaker 2 (01:37:56):
A sucker, those are like, that's those are the basics.
Speaker 33 (01:37:58):
Oh okay, that's it, so basic.
Speaker 23 (01:38:02):
Got it.
Speaker 32 (01:38:03):
How do you feel about D One's take saying that,
like he's saying that he doesn't like the beef and
that it's or it's unfair that people only care about
rapp when people are beefing.
Speaker 3 (01:38:13):
I think I don't believe that. I don't think people
only care about rapping when people are beefing. And I
think that if D One knew some of the inner
workings of what's going on behind the scenes, he wouldn't
take this so serious.
Speaker 33 (01:38:24):
Oh so, do you think this is just an album
roll out?
Speaker 3 (01:38:26):
I'm not gonna say it's just an album roll out,
but I think that there's a lot of conversations happening
behind the scenes more than people know. I think people
are having conversations about you know, we're just rapping now,
like you know what I mean, And I think people
are taking it.
Speaker 22 (01:38:36):
In that way.
Speaker 33 (01:38:37):
You think people are taking it that way?
Speaker 5 (01:38:39):
What do you mean the artists are?
Speaker 33 (01:38:40):
I think the artists are taking it that way, but
not the audience.
Speaker 7 (01:38:43):
Well, they think it's like real problems.
Speaker 33 (01:38:45):
Yeah, that's why they invested because these guys have been rapping.
Speaker 5 (01:38:48):
We like this because it's rap.
Speaker 2 (01:38:49):
Joey rapped in a while Joey did just earlier this
year twice.
Speaker 5 (01:38:55):
The albums, I mean the songs. Yeah, but I'm saying
that's a while January then now, I.
Speaker 15 (01:39:01):
Mean it is.
Speaker 32 (01:39:03):
I guess Kai just dropped the project Cash Rules. All
I'm saying is all these people who are Ray Vaughn
just dropped the project.
Speaker 7 (01:39:10):
These people have been rapping all guys.
Speaker 4 (01:39:12):
Guys were eleven minutes sitting on this break.
Speaker 5 (01:39:15):

Charlamagne lands in here all the time, and then he.
Speaker 4 (00:48):
Goes to the other island.
Speaker 3 (00:49):
I go there, Guilla, baby, you already know, but I
can slewt to everybody in Saint Martin. They always show
me in my family a lot of love when I'm
there for thirty minutes.
Speaker 4 (00:57):
Oh why yeah, cause it was like they was like,
tell him to stay here, we have nice things here.
Tell them to enjoy the island. I was like, he
loves Aguilla. He has some roots, and in Guilla he just
loves it.
Speaker 5 (01:07):
So I mean roots.

That's my I got good people's out there.
Speaker 6 (01:14):
Though.
Speaker 3 (01:14):
Love loved the island all it loves Saint Martin. Tudough
Man just love the island people. The reason we don't care, though,
is because you know, the Breakfast Club is a nationally
syndicated platform. So the reason we don't care that you're
in Saint Martin and is because we're here in New
York City where it's.
Speaker 7 (01:28):
Raining cold, it's forty five degrees, it's sixty.
Speaker 5 (01:30):
Two degrees, and we're local forty eight. We still got
on hoodies. Last night, I was in the street with
a little light jacket on. I was like, what is
going on?
Speaker 3 (01:37):
I heard or that you see what I'm saying, if
y'all don't believe climate change is real, I don't know
what to tell you.
Speaker 5 (01:41):
Y'all donet mess up this planet now.
Speaker 2 (01:42):
I mean you say, I got my little toes out right.
Speaker 5 (01:44):
Now you can't. You got baketball shorts on.
Speaker 8 (01:50):
No drugs.

shout to a laser one on one Saint Martin. That's
their radio station. They allowed me to come here and
actually do my show from here. That way, they got
strong WiFi, they got ethanet cable, so we're good money.
Speaker 9 (02:09):
Now.
Speaker 3 (02:09):
Who we got in the show today? Today we have
David Hogg. He is an American gun control activist and
political strategist and the co chair of the DNC. You
remember David Hall. He was here back in the day
after the Parkland shooting. But now he's the CoA chair
at the DNC. So he'll be here because he's got
some very interesting stuff going on as far as you know,
wanting to switch out leadership and the Democratic Party. But
(02:32):
lennee BENI will be here as well. You know, if
you know anything about the Internet, which I'm sure a
lot of y'all do. She has a show online called
a Parking Lot Pimping, and she gives a lot of
social commentary from there. But she's got a new show
out on a vote called The People's Brief, and she'll
be here to talk about that.
Speaker 4 (02:49):
All right, we got a lot to discuss today. Lauren
is out today. She was actually somewhere well too. She
was heading to the DR and because of kid cutting
and the Diddy case, she stayed a little extra to
see what could cut. He was gonna say, she missed
her flight, so she just landed this morning in the DR.
So we're gonna hold it down for the latest with Lauren.
Speaker 5 (03:06):
Should have left that damn courthouse.
Speaker 3 (03:08):
She could have got all that transcript from online, can't
I told you.
Speaker 2 (03:12):
I told her that this week.
Speaker 7 (03:13):
But don't ever be getting stuff that don't nobody else get,
Like you're in the York waters. The celebrities keep saying,
like everybody in the courtroom the details of the details.
Speaker 3 (03:22):
I mean, everybody in the courtroom getting the same information.
I'm happy that she's there, but.
Speaker 7 (03:25):
Jesus always say she says stuff to do nobody else.
Speaker 8 (03:27):
Say they do.
Speaker 3 (03:28):
They absolutely just you can't let it consume you to
the point where you missing your and it's a business
trip for her to Yeah, so that's why she had
to get asked out there.

one o three.

A man, Julius Randall, what y'all gonna do? Y'all gonna
make this a serious? Are we just gonna have to
sleep through the Western Conference Finals?
Speaker 4 (04:17):

I think if the Knicks do win, we have a
better shot at beating the Timberwolves in Oka. See, but
I gotta be beat the Paces first. And we play
the Paces tonight at eight pm.
Speaker 3 (04:27):
So you're worried about the wrong things, you need to

He said the US.
Speaker 11 (05:07):
Will no longer foot the bill for lower drug prices
in other countries. So let's take a listen to President
Trump at his Make America Healthy Again event.
Speaker 12 (05:16):
And now they're going down maybe by eighty five eighty
And I'm telling you, eighty nine percent in two instance
is eighty nine percent cut.
Speaker 13 (05:24):
Nobody's ever seen anything like it.
Speaker 14 (05:25):
We were subsidized, saying the whole world, and I said,
We're not going to do that anymore.
Speaker 2 (05:29):
We've been a laughing stock for so many years. The
last four years, we've been a laughing stock. I said it.
We were a laughing sock, and now we're the most respected.
Speaker 3 (05:37):
So I'm still confused by this, Morgan, because the Inflation
Reduction Act is already in place. Like, the inflation reduction
that was put in was actual legislation passed by the
Biden administration, and that lord prescription drug costs. It made
health insurance more affordable. And that's actual legislation, not an
executive order. So what is what Trump did better than that?
Speaker 6 (05:58):
Oh no, it's not necessarily that it's better.
Speaker 11 (06:00):
But you know, the Republicans don't like the Inflation Reduction Act,
and it doesn't necessarily address those overseas costs on certain things.
Speaker 6 (06:08):
Now, Health Secretary Robert F.
Speaker 11 (06:10):
Kennedy Junior released his Make America Healthy Again Report, saying
it's a call to action for common sense.
Speaker 6 (06:17):
Now.
Speaker 11 (06:17):
He believes it's a roadmap for federal agencies to use
to reduce chronic childhood illness. And at the top of
the list was poor diet and estimated seventy percent of
US kids calories coming from ultra processed foods. US Agriculture
Secretary Brook Rawlins also talked about reforms and food stamps.
Speaker 6 (06:35):
Let's take a listen to their comments. Kennedy and Rawlins,
it's common sense that not all calories are equal in
nutritional value. It's common sense that over medicating kids is dangerous.
Speaker 15 (06:47):
We are on track to sign multiples of snap waivers
to get junk food and sugary drinks out of our
food stamp system.
Speaker 7 (06:57):
And I am so proud.
Speaker 11 (07:00):
So Other points from the MAHA report include too many
environmental chemicals in our food, lack of activity and chronic stress,
and the over prescription of medication for kids.
Speaker 6 (07:11):
Of course, they're talking about trands and on things like that.
Speaker 11 (07:13):
Kennedy says the US must act decisively to reverse the
childhood chronic disease crisis. Now, in other news, Harvard University
can no longer enroll foreign students.
Speaker 6 (07:23):
That's according to Homeland Security.
Speaker 11 (07:24):
Christy know them who sent a letter to Harvard informing
them that their eligibility or their ability to enroll foreign
students at their university has been revoked. She says the
university has not fully complied with all reporting requirements to DHS,
including providing detailed records of foreign students misconduct on campus.
I'm not going to toss to her audio, but the
Trump administration has already yanked millions in federal grants meant
(07:47):
for the university. I anticipate seeing more of this with
other institutions of higher education who decide to bump back
against the Trump administration. So we will continue to keep
you posted on what happens in these types of situations,
these types of instances.
Speaker 2 (08:02):
That's your Is that illegal?
Speaker 3 (08:03):
I mean, I hear these things and I don't know
if they're leegal or not. It don't sound like that's
something you should be You can just do, But can you?
Speaker 2 (08:09):
Are you worried about legal with Donald Trump?
Speaker 16 (08:11):
Right?
Speaker 6 (08:12):
If you keep asking this question.
Speaker 5 (08:14):
That's right?
Speaker 3 (08:15):
Do that there is no rule of law when it
comes to the Trump administration.
Speaker 5 (08:18):
You're absolutely right. There you go, You're absolutely right.
Speaker 17 (08:20):
All right?
Speaker 6 (08:21):
All right? So that covered six am.
Speaker 11 (08:22):
At seven am, we're gonna get some more details on
this shooting that happened in Washington, DC at the Capitol
Jewish Museum.
Speaker 4 (08:28):
All right, everybody else, get it off your chest. Eight
hundrink five A five one oh five one. If you
need to vent phone line to wide open again eight
hundred five eight five one oh five one. Call us
up right now. It's the Breakfast Club.
Speaker 18 (08:39):
Good morning the Breakfast Club. Wait, this is your time
to get it off your Chest. Eight hundred five eight
five one five one. We want to hear from you
on the Breakfast Club.
Speaker 2 (08:53):
Hello. Who's this from Atlanta? Wesley from Get It off
your Chest?
Speaker 19 (08:58):
Hey, well, good morning. If you got I gotta I
think what's going on with Trump is the fact that
everybody in the government really want him to do what
he wants.
Speaker 8 (09:08):
What he's doing.
Speaker 5 (09:09):
I'll be thinking that too, Bro.
Speaker 19 (09:12):
He's doing exactly what the plan is. You know what
I'm saying. You get things in order when it comes
to finances and for the but the country. Now, don't
get me wrong, I'm not Trump fan. But when I
look at all of our constituents, is Democrats, Republicans, Independent,
everybody's just talking. Nobody's really doing anything.
Speaker 2 (09:33):
You know what I'm saying.
Speaker 3 (09:35):
Listen, I agree with you one hundred percent. Like it
makes no sense, Like even you know, when you think
about the last four years when Biden was in office,
they told us, you know, how much of a threat
that Donald Trump was, but they never acted like he
was one. And then you know when the less, when
he wins, and they're just like, welcome home. It almost
feels like everybody's in cohoots with each other, right because
(09:55):
if they weren't, if they weren't, I would feel like
it'd be more resistance, right, you know.
Speaker 19 (09:59):
Exact actly exactly.
Speaker 20 (10:01):
Now.
Speaker 19 (10:01):
The other thing I do want to say this, You
want to say, Charlie Mane all the time, what can
we do? Like every major government in history, for the
most part, has been overthrown by the people. I don't
think it's gonna be in the government. I think it's
somebody's that's got to stand up and take a million
people to the White House and say we want them out.
Speaker 4 (10:21):
You know what I'm talking about.
Speaker 2 (10:22):
Protesting?
Speaker 4 (10:23):
Yeah, that ain't going well if you're talking people protesting
anything else, like no, no.
Speaker 5 (10:27):
Yeah, the day that happened.
Speaker 7 (10:28):
I mean, I'm not trying I'm not.
Speaker 21 (10:30):
Trying to say go up in arms and stuff.
Speaker 19 (10:32):
But I'm just saying, like dictated, the overthrown by the people.
Speaker 2 (10:35):
You know what I'm saying, Yeah, that ain't gonna happen.
Speaker 5 (10:37):
Yeah, the day that happened, they gonna activate martial law.
I don't see that.
Speaker 3 (10:40):
I let a million people show up to the White
House and watching. Yeah, I don't see that going down.

Speaker 2 (12:03):
What do you know?
Speaker 22 (12:03):
What the night light salary?
Speaker 5 (12:04):
We don't play with me.
Speaker 3 (12:05):
You know, I'm from Moscow and I the whole party
at the night life back in the like, oh one,
when I was working a high ninety eight nine and
childs and I used to be at the night life
like every every Friday.
Speaker 21 (12:13):
Old sister and sister. You already know, yes, sir, okay,
but I want to have a conversation with you, my homeboy,
my brother. I'm an active this year in South Carolina,
y'all would have a conversation. Oh last week, I think
about Tory Lane about due process. You know, yes, sir, okay.
Here in South Carolina they had the mother and sweet
daughters that kill her Mother's Day in twenty twenty two.
(12:34):
I'm sure you're familiar with that officer going on the
call turn her life wasn't on, so she killed the
whole family. So they had a jury. The jury came
back and convicted on all charges, even tappled with evidence
because when she hit them, her life was on and
she turned the light on after, so that tapping whatever.
The We went there every day trying to fight the case.
(12:55):
Convicted looking like forty five years. The jurch came back
and gazed him, gave the officer three years, three years
and shoot the genial convictor. And then we're talking about
due process. This has been going on ever since Rodney
King or d of the officer back then. If you
remember a recall, we're small, they beat Rodney King quipped
(13:15):
them with a stick. They got to quit it. The
due process, it is not for us.
Speaker 2 (13:20):
It's not for us.
Speaker 21 (13:21):
It's always for the people that put in place to
help them. They're the one who's making the blow up.
So how will we get through foster? But they want
us to be patient and understand and go to the process,
and we'd be patient to go through the process. It
doesn't work for us. So when do we stop and
stop staying it's enough?
Speaker 3 (13:38):
Well, I'm a little confused on what you what you're
presenting right now, because I mean you're talking about police officers,
not regular everyday citizens. So of course, you know we
see police officers get off all the time, but that's
because they're police officer.
Speaker 5 (13:52):
Oh you drop the job. Damn yeah, I don't. I don't.
I don't understand what he was saying.
Speaker 2 (13:56):
Hello, who's this year?

spot is with him.
Speaker 7 (18:30):
You know, it's like, that's not my place.
Speaker 24 (18:32):
Now.
Speaker 23 (18:32):
There are things that got to get handled, but it's
still it's not even my stuff to handle.
Speaker 2 (18:36):
Yeah, you said there's some things he needs to handle.
Speaker 8 (18:39):
You mean by.
Speaker 23 (18:39):
It's the elephant in the room. I don't have to
say in his personal life. Oh, but that takes time.
And like I said, that's not my place to speak
on you know what I'm saying, Like it get handled.
I just know that from my perspective, I'm with him.
I'm with him every day, and when I'm not with him,
we're on the phone every day.
Speaker 7 (18:56):
We love each other. So that's just kind of what
it is. So that all of already given Yeah, that's.
Speaker 23 (19:02):
We talk about so many different things.
Speaker 7 (19:04):
Clarify that Din has to get taken care of.
Speaker 23 (19:06):
But like you know, once again, it's not it's not
for me, you say, I'm saying like I'm not.
Speaker 25 (19:10):
I'm not married.
Speaker 7 (19:13):
But I was just trying to get clarity.
Speaker 5 (19:17):
That was already given out. That did it, That did it,
That did it.
Speaker 6 (19:20):
That wre me.
Speaker 7 (19:22):
Don't like being called an elephant, you know what I mean?
Because she got upset and then she she caught wind
to the interview and she hopped on allowed to give
her side of things.
Speaker 24 (19:30):
Don't nobody falling love? That's that then somebody with nowhere to stay.
I literally told him, every time your come up, your
current come up says my name, or does something that
I feel is trying to attack me in any type
of way, I'm gonna drag you.
Speaker 7 (19:49):
And I haven't even been dragging them bad enough.
Speaker 24 (19:52):
You got my daughter's mom out here looking crazy because
you refuse to tell people. Me and Ram haven't even
slept in the same bed since twenty two. You were
so wrapped up in the whole black love thing. That
was your thing, that was your that was the only
thing you had and I realized that, and and I
and I respected that.
Speaker 7 (20:10):
You know what, I don't need to.
Speaker 24 (20:12):
Be out here telling people you ain't this, and you
ain't got this, and you ain't doing this and you
ain't that.
Speaker 4 (20:16):
Whoever get you? Yes see?
Speaker 7 (20:18):
And when she also spoke on a while, the divorce
is taking so long?
Speaker 24 (20:23):
You moved on great. I'm trying to understand what's the
hold up? What's what's the hold up?
Speaker 2 (20:27):
Who's holding what up?
Speaker 24 (20:28):
I have my lawyer called, like, yo, we sent them
the email, right, he gave his low information.
Speaker 7 (20:33):
Yeah, you gotta you called them?
Speaker 10 (20:35):
Right?
Speaker 6 (20:35):
What did she say?
Speaker 7 (20:36):
She said, he hasn't retained to yet.
Speaker 24 (20:38):
If you don't go pay that lady, I said, okay,
maybe maybe it's not there. Maybe hey, guess what it
could say both of us some money we don't gotta have.
We don't gotta have all our business out there. We
don't have to do all of these. I paid my
lawyer already, that's getting mediator. I don't want nothing. I
don't want nothing. I'm not asking the child support, spousal support.
(21:00):
I don't want no cars, I don't want no crip.
I'm not giving nobody anything. That's done there's neither.
Speaker 7 (21:06):
Yo and then y'all know. So when this thing blew up,
it's always been speculation about who left who. Did Pat
leave her because she cheated? Or she did she leave
him because she got tired of him? Whatever? She also
made it, she made it clear yesterday did it never?
They didn't end. She didn't leave him because of infidelity.
In didn't have.
Speaker 24 (21:23):
Nothing into what I break up because guess what, I'm
such a real one.
Speaker 7 (21:27):
I know the procedure when somebody goes to prison. When
I came.
Speaker 24 (21:31):
Home, now, I went straight through that phone immediately.
Speaker 7 (21:34):
I know what was up.
Speaker 24 (21:35):
When I had to fight baby mothers at mother in
law's houses on Thanksgiving, I knew that girl wasn't lying
about what she was saying was going on.
Speaker 7 (21:43):
While I was saying, I knew she wasn't likelying. I'm
just mad. I just was mad.
Speaker 24 (21:47):
I knew she wasn't lying though, So basically that's what
I said. But I didn't know about the fights that
I had to fight baby mothers on Thanksgiving right in housing,
y'a don't know about.
Speaker 7 (21:56):
I'm not no cornyass, So she ain't even even after that,
what I was gonna say, I don't like seeing Remy
and Pat poofs like this, Like both of them have
always been super solid.
Speaker 3 (22:05):
But I can understand why Remy is upset because if
you're dealing with somebody, you know, if you if you're
dealing with something like a divorce, you don't want to
hear the person's new booth speaking on y'all in any way.
Speaker 7 (22:16):
Way, even though Clarisia didn't really say like, didn't say
her name, wouldn't even really say anything like violent or
you know, to it her, she still just didn't want to.
Speaker 4 (22:24):
But the thing is, well, first of all, you're dealing
with two of the slickers mouths in the industry. They're
gonna go back and forth all day long. But the
only thing is I hate to see it because I
know Remy and I know Pap. But the only bad
thing about it is if they both moved on, right,
I think Remy moved on, have moved on. We don't
want to see this playing out, right, Yeah, but their daughter,
their daughter's gonna get to age where she sees stuff online,
and they love their daughter, They love their kids, and
(22:45):
I hate seeing this.
Speaker 2 (22:46):
Well, let's be honest, we don't.
Speaker 3 (22:48):
We don't want to see it playing out, but we
want to see it playing out. We're not the generation
of days, our lives in bold and beautiful.
Speaker 5 (22:54):
This's our stories, right.
Speaker 7 (22:56):
And this is also y'all got to think about what
she dealing with when she wake up and she see like,
you know, how long people have been telling her always
her fault, like she cheated, and she you know what
I mean, Like I be seeing people come for both
of them, but come for Remy more like they've been
on her ass.
Speaker 2 (23:09):
Yeah, they great.
Speaker 3 (23:11):
And if you have not been speaking on somebody and
you hear that new booth speaking on y'all relationship, you
feel like it's coming from your ex.
Speaker 5 (23:18):
So I can see what that was.
Speaker 7 (23:19):
And so because that means you're talking about what's going on,
you know, And she's going in all these interviews and
she's saying she's not touching it all the way, but
she touching on it, you know what I mean, the
elephant in the room. She did make it clear why
she left this She ain't even leave after all of that.
Speaker 4 (23:32):
She left.
Speaker 7 (23:33):
This is why she left.
Speaker 24 (23:34):
When I didn't want a man knit jer anymore, when
I didn't want somebody taking twenty percent out of my
check and I still.
Speaker 7 (23:44):
Pay all the bills anymore.
Speaker 24 (23:46):
When I decided that I didn't like being guilt tripped. Oh,
I was there when nobody else was there. That's the
type of people that gets prayed on. I'm the one
that said, hey.
Speaker 7 (23:57):
Please leave, are we doing this? Like this doesn't make sense?
Like y'all believed me when I said, this is.
Speaker 24 (24:04):
The most amazing person ever in the whole world.
Speaker 7 (24:07):
That's why ya think that because YA didn't see it.
I'm lying. I did stupid, Like, hey, look at my
new truck. It's a push you give. I bought that,
so I did do something to put the sauce on it.
Speaker 24 (24:17):
But that's what you're supposed to do when you love somebody,
and y'all in a relationship, you make them see like
that bigger than what they are.
Speaker 7 (24:22):
Yeah, and yo, she was live for eighty minutes. That
was just the first time. Y'all was about to say,
I didn't hear none of this yesterday? Yeah, yeah, yeah,
oh no, How long was she gonna live for? She
went live for eighty minutes the first time and then passed.
He felt the Lord triggered. It was a whole back
and forth. We ain't gonna get to everything, but it
was a lot. He said this.
Speaker 26 (24:39):
You know it's true. I wrote tons of her music.
Ninety percent of her music. I wrote it since I've
been around her. I wrote probably like three songs on
her first album. If I listened to it, I'll tell
you exactly what I wrote.
Speaker 2 (24:54):
And when you listen to.
Speaker 5 (24:55):
It, y'all know my pen.
Speaker 26 (24:56):
The only reason why I'm mentioning that is because you fabricates.
You fabricated, and you talked about my children, and as a.
Speaker 2 (25:03):
Father, I was not going to allow that.
Speaker 26 (25:06):
I'm allowed you to do what you've been doing all
this time, and I said nothing. She got mad at
me because I went live and say I didn't knock
this lean out.
Speaker 3 (25:14):
Now, as a hip hop fan, that's what I need
proof of. That's a hell of a that's a hell
of a accusation that you Y's first album. And then
I saw Papas last night that he wrote, U, I
got it.
Speaker 7 (25:28):
You got to provide that's her biggest songs.
Speaker 3 (25:31):
I don't care about the relationship stuff. That's your business.
As a hip hop fan, I got to see some
proof of that.
Speaker 7 (25:37):
And then also she wanted him to show proof al
so that she tried to get back with him, because
when he said that, he said, Yo, you was just
trying to get back with me last night, and I
said no, she went live again. We don't got time
to play all that. But it's it's it's basically it's
a lot. And then also our biggest argument was like, yo,
I just I want the divorce, you know. She was
saying like, if you can't afford the lawyer, I'll pay
for it or whatever. Right, And then so he posted
(25:59):
out of no where like filing was the easiest thing
to do, and she said, if you look on the date, yo,
you just filed this today. Well this was yesterday when
it was live, but he had just went to fil yesterday.
That the date is on the paperwork and everything. Clarissa
also took to Twitter to confirm some things and uh, yeah,
y'all going.
Speaker 8 (26:17):
Her so much.
Speaker 5 (26:17):
Can I ask one quick question?
Speaker 7 (26:18):
What's up?
Speaker 3 (26:19):
Why do we always say the elephant in the room?
Has there ever been an elephant in any room? And
how did they get there?
Speaker 8 (26:25):
Like?
Speaker 5 (26:25):
Why do we say that?
Speaker 7 (26:26):
But I guess the biggest thing because nobody's talking the
biggest thing in the room. How did you ever ignore
an elephant in the work.
Speaker 5 (26:34):
Now who bought it?
Speaker 7 (26:35):
There though no idea, you know, Michael Jackson said, the
animals everywhere.
Speaker 4 (26:40):
We don't no room that I know of. Okay, that's
the question.
Speaker 2 (26:44):
But anyway, I hate to see this.
Speaker 4 (26:46):
I mean, like I said, we love both of them,
and like Charlamagne said, we are hip hopheads.
Speaker 2 (26:51):
I mean, Remy has been spitting since I.
Speaker 3 (26:54):
Writing Remy raps. That's the only thing I need proof
of all that relationship stuff.
Speaker 4 (26:57):
But you also, they try to hurt each other, like
they're trying to hurt the chat, like they're so upset
they will say anything to hurt each other. We don't
necessarily know what's false, what's true, but they're trying to
hurt each other.
Speaker 3 (27:05):
That's how you know that's a hip hop couple. That's
how you heard that I wrote your rap.
Speaker 4 (27:10):
And if you don't remember, a couple of months ago,
she was like, I know you're gonna come out and
say you nobody gonna believe that.
Speaker 7 (27:16):
Like she did say that. He was so that this
must have been being said for years, Like even when
they was together and arguing, he must have said it.
He might have been rapping it prand things.
Speaker 4 (27:25):
You don't want to hear somebody got a small p fee.
Did anybody say that?
Speaker 5 (27:28):
All right, I'm talking about rapping, but that's how.
Speaker 7 (27:33):
You hurt somebody. Somebody all started on the breakfast club.
This is what That's not true, doing that to people
up here?
Speaker 5 (27:40):
True that ephant shut up? All right?
Speaker 4 (27:45):
When we come back, we got front page news and
don't go anywhere.
Speaker 2 (27:48):
It's the breakfast club.
Speaker 4 (27:49):
Good morning, wake up.
Speaker 8 (27:51):
If you're like to enter the breakfast club.
Speaker 17 (27:53):
Warning.
Speaker 4 (27:54):
Everybody's d J n V Jesse hilarious, Charlamagne the guy.
We are the breakfast Club. Let's get in some front
news now. Last night OKC beat the Timberwolvesdale, leading as
series to nothing, and tonight my New York Micks take
on the Paces at eight pm. We are home, We're
at the Garden, and we're gonna win this when we
gotta winness when we we can't play with you Indiana.
Speaker 2 (28:13):
Shoot y'all played with him last game, you right, We
ain't playing with them no more. What's up Morgan?
Speaker 6 (28:18):
All right, let's get into it.
Speaker 11 (28:20):
So more details are coming out about the shooting that
took place at the Capitol Jewish Museum in Washington, d C.
That left to Israeli embassy staffers dead Uron Lisinski and
Sarah Milgrim were gounned down outside the Capitol Jewish Museum
shortly after nine pm on Wednesday night. A man identified
as Elias Rodriguez faces two counts of first degree murder,
along with murder of foreign officials and two firearm related charges.
(28:43):
Rodriguez was taken into custody following the shooting outside of
the Capitol Jewish Museum, and he reported to have shouted free,
Free Palestine while he was being arrested. Now, US Attorney
General Pam Bondi said she's been in constant contact with
President Trump since it happened, and the death penalty for
Rodriguez is a possibility. She made these comments yesterday, so
(29:03):
just don't want you get confused about her saying yesterday.
She's speaking in reference to Wednesday. So let's take a
listen to US Attorney General Pam Bondi.
Speaker 14 (29:11):
I was on the phone with Donald Trump all evening long,
all evening. He called me first thing this morning. He
is horrified by what happened. Two beautiful young people were
gunned down last night needlessly.
Speaker 21 (29:25):
You know.
Speaker 14 (29:25):
I saw his body being taken away from the scene
that was horrific.
Speaker 11 (29:30):
So meanwhile, Senators John Thune and Chuck Schumer are speaking
out about the incident.
Speaker 6 (29:35):
Senator Senate Majority.
Speaker 11 (29:37):
Leader John Thune said he's disgusted, while Senate Minority Leader
Chuck Schumer said people should be outraged about this incident.
Speaker 6 (29:45):
Let's take a listen to their comments and.
Speaker 9 (29:46):
Everything we know so far, it is appallingly clear that
event attendees were deliberately targeted.
Speaker 27 (29:53):
Such a blatant and targeted act of anti semitism right
here in the nation's capital should outrage you, everybody. Beautiful,
young couple about to be married, just starting their lives,
gunned down, seeming seemlings, seemingly because they were Jewish.
Speaker 6 (30:10):
Yeah, very very sad situation. I'll keep your guys on
that now.
Speaker 11 (30:14):
Senator Schumer also used his time on the floor to
address the passage of President Trump's Big Beautiful Bill, and
speaking of which, President Trump's Big Beautiful Bill did pass
yesterday morning on a vote of two fifteen to two fourteen,
with all Democrats and two Republicans voting no. House Speaker
Mike Johnson is offering some advice to his colleagues in
the Senate, who will now take up the measure after
(30:36):
the vote, Johnson says he hopes the Senate will pass
the bill so it can be on President President Trump's
desk by July fourth.
Speaker 6 (30:44):
Let's take a listen to how Speaker Mike Johnson well look.
Speaker 12 (30:47):
Forward to the Senate's timely consideration of this once in
a generation legislation, which stand ready to continue our work
together to deliver on the one big, beautiful bill, as
President Trump named it himself.
Speaker 2 (30:58):
We're going to send that to his desk.
Speaker 12 (31:00):
We're going to get there by Independence Day on July fourth,
and we are going to celebrate a new golden age
in America.
Speaker 6 (31:07):
It's definitely going to be new giving. It's giving new,
all right.
Speaker 11 (31:10):
So Senators have already promised to make some changes to
that build. If it does become law, it would institute
reforms to Medicaid, including stricter work requirements and more frequent
alibility eligibility checks.
Speaker 6 (31:23):
Excuse me.
Speaker 11 (31:24):
It's estimated the US will save at least six hundred
and twenty five billion dollars, but it also means seven
point six million Americans will lose health insurance over the
next ten years. It would also eliminate taxes on tips,
while putting billions towards fighting illegal immigration and a nationwide
defense system like the Golden Dome I mentioned earlier this week,
among other things. So I will continue to keep you
(31:47):
guys posted as to what's happening. I believe that per
this Memorial Day weekend, Congress is headed to a recess,
so they'll be on recess all of next.
Speaker 6 (31:57):
Week and then there will return the fire following week.
Speaker 11 (32:00):
And speaking of Memorial Day, the weekend travel rush is
already underwag peak. Airport crowds are expected today, with the
FAA expecting record breaking travel. Over three and a half
million people are expected to get to their destination by
plane and almost two percent increase from last year. And
then of course there's also they're also seeing people on
the roads. Triple A is forecasting forty five million Americans
(32:23):
will hit the road between today and Monday for the
holiday weekend. So yeah, if you're headed out like you
and V, you know, just make sure you guys are safe,
paccupations and treat others with some kindness and respect because
between real IV and the administration and everything else that's
going on, you know, we could all use a little
bit of vacation, a little bit of a break book.
You know, in order to get to that break we
(32:44):
might have to stand in some lines and you know,
wait in some traffic.
Speaker 4 (32:47):
So just yeah, like I said, give yourself a little
extra time. And remember if somebody's a little late in
the rushing and you got a little time, let them through.
Let them through. You don't know what their day was,
what they've been through, what happened. They could have got
a flat town on the way to the airport.
Speaker 2 (33:00):
Give people some grace today. Oh this weekend, I should say,
all right.
Speaker 11 (33:03):
And one more thing real quick, if I can shout
out the eighty two second Airborne Infantry Division and celebration
of their All American Week. They reached out to me
saying that they listened to us on Fayetteville, North Carolina
on foxy ninety nine, So hashtag Airborne all the way.
And of course I want to salute all of our
military and our service leaders who have made the ultimate sacrifice.
That is what Memorial Day is, all the you know
(33:25):
is about. So those who serve, we salute you and
thank you for your service. That's your front page news.
Speaker 6 (33:30):
Follow me on.
Speaker 11 (33:31):
Socials at Morgan Medium for more news coverage. Follow at
Black Information Network, download the free iHeartRadio app, and visit

Speaker 4 (33:41):
Thank you, Morgan, Thanks Morgan, joe An, you too, everybody else.
When we come back, who's joining the chelamane?
Speaker 3 (33:46):
Well, first, I want to tell everybody today is Friday,
and you know on Fridays we do the people's donkey. Okay,
So if you want to give somebody the credit they
deserve for being stupid, okay, call up right now, one
one hundred and five five, one oh five one, and
I'm gonna let you all give out the biggest he
hard this morning. And our guest is David Hogg. David
Hogg is an American gun control activist. He's a survivor
(34:07):
of the twenty eighteen park Land shooting and now he's
a political strategist and co chair of the DNC, and
he is doing some great things in regards to challenging
ineffective leadership in the Democratic Party.
Speaker 4 (34:19):
So we're gonna talk to him, all right, we'll get
to that next, So don't move. It's the Breakfast Club,
God Morning, the Breakfast Club. Warning everybody, as thej n
V Jess Hilarious, Charlamagne the Guy.
Speaker 2 (34:32):
We are a breakfast club.
Speaker 4 (34:33):
We got a special guest in the building, American gun
control activists and political strategist and co chair of the DNC.
Speaker 2 (34:40):
Ladies and gentlemen, we have David Hogg.
Speaker 5 (34:41):
Good to see you, man.
Speaker 3 (34:42):
You know, I really appreciate a lot of the things
that you've been doing because you are challenging the Democratic establishment,
and I just think we need more of that.
Speaker 13 (34:52):
Yeah, I certainly agree. I think the fact of the
matter is, right now, we have seen last election, we
lost voting share with nearly every single demograph pick out there,
and we also lost against Donald Trump of all people. Right,
And if that's not a sign that we need to
dramatically change, I don't know what is. So that's really
what we're out here trying to do is help to
elevate a new generation and also make sure that nobody
(35:13):
feels like you know, that they can just be in
their position of power forever, because ultimately, this is democracy
last I checked, right, and it's about making sure that
we have the best representation possible in every district.
Speaker 3 (35:24):
Do you feel like the Democratic establishment uses young activists
as mascots more than partners.
Speaker 13 (35:29):
Certainly, at times it can happen. I mean I know
for a fact when I started running for this position,
you know, there were people who were certainly resistant who
I ended up talking to a lot of the time.
That was actually one of my favorite parts about running
for this position, because when you're running to be a
vice chair, you have to call people and obviously earn
their vote, and one of my favorite parts about it
was talking to the people who at first did not
(35:51):
want to vote for me at all. I mean, there
was one person who I talked to who actually said,
in one of my first calls that I made to
ask for the support, that I never talked to this
person before this that said that I should not do this.
I cannot win, and that there's absolutely no pathway to
victory for me, and that they would not vote for me.
That was the first call that I had, very welcoming, right,
But what I said to them was like, I understand
(36:13):
that you're not in a position where you feel like
you're not gonna be able to support me, but ultimately,
I care a lot about the constituency group that you represent,
so I want to keep talking to you because even
if you don't vote for me, I do care about
what you care about, And ultimately they ended up coming
around and supporting me and being a huge supporter as well.
Speaker 3 (36:27):
And you were a survivor of the Parkland shooting with
that would spark the thought to get into politics.
Speaker 13 (36:32):
Yeah, I mean before this, I wanted to be a
journalist because I wanted to scare the crap out of
politicians that I thought were corrupt as well, and didn't
do anything ultimately, But I realized after Parkland, when my
classmates and I mobilized. For people that may not remember,
we had one of the largest school shootings in American
history after my high school in Parkland, and my classmates
and I were obviously devastated after that, but I would
(36:55):
say just as much as that, we were furious because
we grew up hearing from our politicians their thoughts and
prayers over and over again after these shootings, but they
weren't really doing anything right.
Speaker 24 (37:04):
I was.
Speaker 13 (37:05):
I think I was in middle school when Sandy Hook happened.
I wasn't even alive when Columbine happened. That's how long
this has been going on for. And we went out
there and we didn't say go out and vote for
Democrats or Republicans necessarily, we said, go out and vote
for more religis leaders that represent you and your values right.
And what we saw was one of the largest youth
photo turnouts in American history. We took back the House.
And what we saw as well is after Parkland, we
(37:27):
didn't go out there. Even though there was a lot
of the polsters and consultants and pundits that brought the
Democratic Party to the place that it is right now,
who told us, No, you can't talk about taking on
the NRA, the organization that stops these gun laws from
changing a.
Speaker 5 (37:39):
Lot of the time insanity.
Speaker 13 (37:40):
You can't talk about banning assault weapons because that's too unpopular.
Because this is Florida, it's a Republican state. Gun laws
get weaker here because we did the opposite of what
all those purported experts told us to do. We actually
did change gun laws in Florida.
Speaker 2 (37:52):
Yeah, because you're not fixing the problem if you don't
go after.
Speaker 13 (37:54):
Exactly you have to address it. And because of that,
we raised the aged by a gun to twenty one.
For context of the shoot at my high school, he
couldn't buy a handgun from a federally licensed dealer because
he wasn't twenty one yet, but he could purchase an
AR fifteen. And then we passed a red flag law
that can disarm people that are risk themselves in others.
That has been used over nineteen thousand times in the
state of Florida to disarm people that, for example, threaten
(38:16):
to shoot up a high school or harm their intimate partner,
you know, and thousands of lives have been saved from that.
And what I learned from that experience is that it's
actually summed up well by Dolores Rereta, who I asked
one time at a protest, what is the most important
thing that you need to tell any young person or
activist that wants to make change that they need to know?
What she said to me is it doesn't matter whether
or not the change it is actually possible. It's whether
(38:38):
or not you can make people believe that the change
is possible more than anything. And that's what we did
after Parkland, and I think what we're trying to do
now is take that generation of young people who have
been let down in so many ways by their political system,
whether it's through gun violence inside of school or outside
of school, whether it's the housing crisis, the student debt
crisis are so much more and show them that there's
a new generation of people coming in that are people
(39:00):
like Congressman Maxwell Frost. I don't know if you know
this person. He's the youngest member of Congress. He started
he was working for March for Our Lives while I
was in college, and he called me up and he
said he wanted to run for Congress. And I said,
that's awesome, but you know you're twenty four, right, He
had to be twenty five to get elected to Congress.
And Maxwell, do you know, he didn't come from some
super fancy background. His parents aren't super wealthy or anything
like that. He's just a normal person. And when he
(39:23):
was running, he had to Uber drive from nine pm
to two am every night while running for Congress. And
he was running against two former members of Congress, one
of whom was a head fund manager while they were
a member of Congress. Not a conflict of interest at all, right,
And then the other one had committed tax run while
they were in Congress. And Maxwell's ridden off by the
establishment so much. They said, you know, he's a great person,
(39:44):
but he can't win. He can't raise that kind of money,
and we helped him raise I helped him raise about
four hundred thousand dollars in his first two quarters. But
the thing is the most important thing that somebody needs
to run for office is the will, the grit, and
the distermination to get elected. But they also need a
substantial amount of funding in order to get elected. Far
too many young people with that griten determination struggle to
get there. And that's why we do what we do
(40:04):
with leaders we deserve. Because Maxwell ended up with that
determination and that support, becoming the youngest member of Congress,
that helps us pearhead and effort to get the Biden
administration to aggress to address gun violence in a more
substantial manner. And shortly after I graduated from college, I
found myself sitting in the Rose Garden at the White
House with Congressman Maxwell Frost, who I had just I
(40:27):
literally hired from my freshman dorm room, introducing the President
of the United States to create something called the Office
of Gun Violence Prevention that helped to coordinate the federal
government's response to gun violence, and they oversaw about a
twenty five percent reduction in gun homicides over the course
of about three years from that work, and that's because
of the pressure that Maxwell helped to put on. But
imagine if we had thirty Maxwell's in Congress.
Speaker 7 (40:48):
David, going back to the shooting, you were just seventeen
when that happened, right, I can only imagine, like, what
was I know you said you guys were fairious, but
what is something from that day? What do you remember
most about the data sticks with you today?
Speaker 13 (41:03):
I think what I remember most was just the sense
of anger that I had at what had happened. But
it was more righteous indignation, kind of like the injustice
of what had happened. Because I had spent the past
four years in my speech and debate classes, studying arguing
about gun control, for example, and having to argue on
both sides of it, both for and against it.
Speaker 25 (41:23):
You don't get to decide.
Speaker 13 (41:24):
Which side you're arguing on. You have to argue on both.
And I was frustrated because I felt like I maybe
myself and my classmates could have done something before this
because of what we knew from that education that we
did it that could have potentially prevented it. So that's
a lot of what I think about, and of course,
to the fear that one has when my sister was
just fourteen years old that day and she lost four friends.
(41:46):
That's really what I was thinking about was, for the
first time in my life, there wasn't anything that I
could do to help my sister feel better other than
to try to stop this from happening to other people.
And that sense of helplessness is really what I hold
on too. But I also remember that the friendship and
camaraderie that my cosmates and I and the parents and
teachers and other people that we worked with had in
order to hold these politicians' feet to the fire. Because
if there's anything that I learned from that experience, when
(42:09):
I originally went out and started talking about it, I
wasn't doing it as an activist. I was doing it
as a journalist because I wanted to talk about what
happened that day. But I soon realized it wasn't gonna
be enough to do that, because you can't just talk
about what's wrong.
Speaker 2 (42:21):
You got to make it better and.
Speaker 13 (42:22):
Say what needs to be done right, and journalists often
can't do that.
Speaker 4 (42:26):
Was still kicking in with the co chair of the DNC,
David Hogg. Charlamagne, let me.
Speaker 3 (42:29):
Ask a question, David, at what moment did you realize
you were more of a threat than an asset to
democratic leadership.
Speaker 13 (42:36):
I wouldn't say that I'm a I would say that
I'm still an asset because I would say that this
much is true. Right, if you're in democratic leadership, It's
kind of like being the coach of a baseball team, right, Like, sure,
could you go out against a group of fifth graders
and hit a home run? Absolutely, But ultimately, if you
can't get other people on base, right because they can't
even swing the bat. Sometimes it's not a matter of
(42:56):
what type of bat they're using, it's a matter of
can they swing to actually get on base in the
first place, And it's a matter of getting new players. Ultimately,
it's not a matter of oh can we can? We
just do more and more training. And I think what
we need to do more of in our own party is, yes,
we have to fight back to defeat Republicans, but we
also need to give people something true and authentic.
Speaker 5 (43:15):
To vote for.
Speaker 13 (43:16):
Where we're showing people how the reason you vote for
us isn't just so that we have a majority, it's
so that we use our majority to help you, Right,
Because if we stuck with that politics of cowardice, we
never would have passed the Affordable Care Act in the
first place. We never would have passed so many of
the most monumental pieces of legislation than now we're helping
one hundreds of millions Americans around the country. Of course,
(43:37):
there are challenges with democratic leadership, but what I would
say is, especially in the case of somebody like a
king Jeffreys, let's get him the majority so we can
see what he can actually do with that majority.
Speaker 5 (43:46):
In the first place. Anything I can see, here's the thing,
and I treat it like anything else.
Speaker 3 (43:50):
Right, Like you know how they say money doesn't change you,
It just it just multiplies whatever you already are.
Speaker 5 (43:58):
More power is not going to change these people.
Speaker 3 (44:00):
If you're a coward with no power, you're going to
be a coward with power. We've seen plenty of Democrats
who have power who are still cowards. My team ain't
going to do nothing different with Powell.
Speaker 13 (44:09):
Well, I think if we I think, if we have
the right people elected that are out there, they're going
to be able. Ultimately, sometimes it's not a matter of
what you want to do when you have to get
elected to those positions within the House. For example, if
we get more people elected that are saying, no, this
is not enough. We have to fight harder, that we're
not just going to stick in our positions of power forever,
and we're going to say to you, for example, that
(44:31):
if we're going to vote for you, this is what
we want to see. Because obviously he has to be
elected to be the majority Speaker of the House by
having some of them, some more of those young people
that are on the front lines of these issues of
addressing that I know in those internal deliberations that it's
not so much a matter of what he wants to do,
it's more a matter of if he wants to get elected.
He is going to have to be able to fight harder,
and I know that those young people will push him
(44:52):
to do that, and if they feel like he's not
going to, then they won't vote for it.
Speaker 5 (44:55):
Have you ever been directly wanted by anyone in the
democratic quality to Staniela?
Speaker 13 (45:01):
There certainly are are real challenges so the work that
we are doing, but I'm not gonna let that stop me.
You know, I wouldn't say necessarily that it's like somebody
is directly coming to me and saying if you don't
stop this, this is going to happen to you, or
something like that. But they that's not how a lot
of these things work inside of DC. A lot of
the time it's not necessarily necessarily an overt threat. It
is essentially a tacit threat that we hear a lot
(45:21):
of the time knowing that if X thing happens, then why.
Speaker 25 (45:24):
Could happen to you?
Speaker 5 (45:25):
Why not call it out?
Speaker 8 (45:25):
Though? Why not?
Speaker 13 (45:27):
Because ultimately it is what I care more about is
when there are people that go against me, whether it
was for example, in the vice chair race, I know
the power for my own work and gun violence prevention
of being a bigger person working towards victory, and ultimately,
when you do that, a lot of those people start
to come around. Because a lot of the time in DC,
(45:47):
we have a lot of wind socks that go just
whichever way the wind is blowing right, whichever side that
they think is going to win. And I believe in
the politics of being able to reconcile those differences and
work together despite what people say. Because what's even more powerful,
Charlottne is that when when somebody comes out and tries
to go overtly against you, right, and they know that
they did that to you, but they see that you
(46:07):
start to win, and that's ultimately what they care most about.
Then if you don't go out there and start calling
them out publicly, one it's not nearly as divisive, and two,
it shows that you're trying to be a real leader.
And ultimately they oftentimes feel guilty about it and they
want them try to make up for it by working
to help you because they want to be on the
side of winning, and ultimately that's what we're trying to
do here. If that makes sense, How do.
Speaker 7 (46:28):
You respond to people that stay that your work is
too political.
Speaker 3 (46:32):
But you don't really Yeah, you're doing this for selfish
reasons and not because you actually care about you know,
the whole party if they advance your political career.
Speaker 10 (46:42):
No, no, no.
Speaker 13 (46:43):
So what I'll say is when I when I was eighteen,
I said that I wanted to run for Congress because
I thought that would be the best a way to
make change. But I realized when I was working with
people like Maxwell and other young people around the country
how hard it is to raise money and get the
resources to get elected. Because of course courages that resource
that we lack the most, but those courageous people they
(47:03):
need cash in order to get elected. And I could
be one person myself to go out there and maybe
I get elected to Congress, But ultimately, what is more,
what is going to be more beneficial for the future.
Speaker 5 (47:13):
Right One.
Speaker 13 (47:14):
I often do get physically threatened, not necessarily by Democrats,
necessarily by any means, but by a lot of people
who don't agree with the things that I say about
strengthening gun laws. My family and I we got probably
over a thousand death threats after the shooting, I would say,
between online and directly in the mill. My house got
swatted as well. And what I frankly have to think
(47:35):
about is that I can't just be one person doing
this right, And there's a whole movement of people out
there that are doing this, a whole movement of young
people that have gone through these school shootings. And what
I want to help do is I don't want to
just be one vote that's out there. I want to
help bring in a generation that is truly representative of
our generation and not just what somebody who's able to
raise as much money as possible to get elected looks like.
(47:57):
And That's what we're trying to do with this is
look at all the Canada that we supported last cycle,
where we helped elect the youngest person and the Georgia
legislature ever it was a seventh grade algebra teacher. Look
at the person who we elected, Dante Pittman in North Carolina,
who helped to break the Republican supermajority out there. Look
at people like Nadarius Clark in Virginia who broke the
Republican majority in the House and help pass all this stuff.
So the reason why I'm doing this is because I
(48:19):
don't want to just walk through that door myself and
close it behind me. I don't want to just keep
the door open. I want to take the door off
the damn hinges and enable it so that future young
people don't need to have the door held open for
them in the first place. What they need to do that, though,
is they need the funding to get elected and make
sure that they have their right value so that they're
able to reform our campaign finance system. Because what I
(48:39):
look at this as ultimately is an insurance policy for
the gun safety movement. Where President Biden's generation, they didn't
go through school shooter drills, but they went through a
different type of drill. They went through nuclear bomb drills,
and they went on to pass some of the largest
arms or reduction treaties in human history to limit those
nuclear weapons. And I think that's important because they felt
the anxiety of what it was like to be told
(49:01):
by your government just hide under your desk to survive
a nuclear bomb and the epic failure of leadership that
that is. And I believe for the difference from our
generation is that the bomb is going off multiple times
a year. Absolutely, So let's get them elected so that
they can lead, like Congressman Frost boldly on this instead
of me just being one vote, because it's about our
(49:21):
generation and the story of are we going to continue
having conversations like this in the future where school shootings
remain in the headlines, and gun violence remains in the headlines,
and so many issues that we should not have to
deal with in the richest country in human history remain
in the headlines, or we're going to leave them where
they belong in the history books.
Speaker 4 (49:37):
We still have David Hogg in a building, co chair
of the DNC.
Speaker 3 (49:40):
Charlomagne, give me some other names, because you know, you
keep mentioning in Maxwell Frost, who do you think is
the voice of the Democratic Party?
Speaker 1 (49:46):
Who do you think should be the voice of the
Democratic Party? Are Is there multiple voices? Well, I think
one there's going to be multiple voices, right. I think
one of the great things about our party that also
creates some challenges is, look, we are not a cult.
We can have to tell in recent well sometimes I
understand what you're saying, certainly given some of the responses
that I've gotten to this, but ultimately we're not a
party with somebody like Donald Trump at the top that
(50:08):
says you have to believe every single thing right here
or else. You were excommunicated and we're going to try
to destroy your life necessarily.
Speaker 3 (50:15):
It's not really Well, I've looked at the way people
would really get upset with you if you had anything
negative to say about President Biden when he was the one.
Speaker 5 (50:25):
That we should have been speaking out about.
Speaker 13 (50:27):
The most right, And I completely agree with you. Actually,
I think one of the challenges in that regard that
we have to address in our politics is that we
have created a culture where people are told repeatedly what
they want to hear instead of what they need to hear.
Speaker 8 (50:42):
Right.
Speaker 13 (50:43):
What I believe happened in that regard is, look, when
you're in the White House, and I've seen this in
different ways, either in the White House or in other places,
you want to keep your job, and the best way
to do that is ensure that you get this person
reelected again. And I think what happens far too often
in our politics is that people get too comfortable and
they just tell people what they want to hear instead
of what they need to hear, over and over and
(51:04):
over and over again. And frankly, part of why I'm
doing this is because what I met with Resident Biden
in twenty twenty three for an hour in the Oval Office,
and one of the things that that right happened to you, Well,
it was a good meeting, and it was it was
after he created the Office of Gun Violence Prevention at
the White House that saw about the twenty five percent
(51:24):
reduction in gun homicides around the country. Part of the
challenges though, you're not gonna hear about the shooting that
doesn't happen. But I was meeting with him in that regard.
Speaker 5 (51:31):
Did you see the decline in him then?
Speaker 13 (51:33):
So that was one of the challenges is I didn't
see it personally. What I wish I had told him though,
because he asked me how do I win back younger voters.
What I wish I had told him, which, of course
I would have been laughed out the room if I
said this was that he shouldn't run for office again.
I know, but that's what needed to be said.
Speaker 7 (51:51):
I was saying that everybody was so mad at me,
and but that's part.
Speaker 13 (51:54):
Of the problem. Is we need to have a more
open conversation about these things, because we also created an
environment where people felt like they were ex community if
they dared to say anything about it. And I to
some extent, I understand people were afraid about potentially re
electing Donald Trump, but ultimately look at where we ended up.
Sure right, we need to build a culture inside of
our party where we are telling people what they need
to hear and not just what they want to hear.
(52:15):
That's what I did when I ran for vice chair.
When I ran for this position, I said, you know
what I'm not gonna do. I'm not going to be
a politician. I'm not going to contort myself into some
pretzel of whatever you want to see. If some bolkmarrage
of you know, when they asked me should Joe Biden
have dropped out? I said, yes, he should have obviously.
And then when they asked me why we lost the election,
I said why did we lose the election? Voters told
(52:37):
us two things. They said, prices are too high and
Joe Biden is too old. And we said to them,
with a power of two billion dollars behind us, no
he's not, Yes he is. And then we said no
they aren't. Look at the stock market. And if a
majority of people don't have that exactly, and if you
tell people not to believe their eyeballs or their wallets,
you're going to lose them. And I think what we
need to build in a party is a culture of
(52:58):
addressing the realities that people are actually going through and
what they're actually feeling, not just what a chart is
telling us that they should be feeling, but actually listening
to them.
Speaker 3 (53:07):
Okay, I'm just going to throw some names at you,
and because because these people to me represent what the
next generation of Democrats could look like, I just want
to know what's your thoughts of them?
Speaker 5 (53:15):
Are Governor Wes Moore and Maryland.
Speaker 13 (53:17):
I think Governor Wes Moore has done a pretty amazing job.
He actually has a really cool program that I don't
think has been talked about very much where he works.
I think it's called like the mid Career Program, where
they'd taken a class of several hundred young people and
put them into different jobs around the state of Maryland,
and it really helps get them started in their lives
and their careers and like help turn things around. And
there have even been people that have gone into this
program that I've heard about that started out literally homeless
(53:40):
that now have gone on to get jobs and do
things like that. So that's great. I love Governor Wes Moore.
I will say this much if I can't talk at
all about any potential presidential nominees. I'm not saying that
he is or is not running, but I can't give
any opinion specifically on that people people to judge clearly
was a very good Secretary of Transportation given the situation
(54:03):
that we're in right now, and I think I think
with Pete he represents a level of sanity that I
think people are craving right now. They're tired of the
chaos that I think Donald Trump represents a.
Speaker 5 (54:16):
Lot of the time Pete.
Speaker 13 (54:17):
I don't think people want to have a president that
they have to hear about doing something ridiculous in the
headlines every single day. That is frankly an embarrassment to
our country and internationally as well. So I think Pete
could be great. What I really like about him is that,
and I'm just talking about like future leaders. I'm not
talking about anything about presidential or anything like that.
Speaker 25 (54:37):
To be extremely.
Speaker 5 (54:39):
Democratics.
Speaker 13 (54:40):
What I really like about him is I think he
does an excellent job of talking to people who don't
agree with him.
Speaker 5 (54:46):
Yes, I agree, that is what we need more of.
Speaker 13 (54:48):
That's what I think Pete is really good at representing
is helping to kind of bring people together and talk
to the people that don't agree and explain without compromising
his values what we believe as Democrats, And I think
that's really powerful. Governor Jos Shapiro, you know, I think
with Jos Shapiro, he has a huge amount of favorability
for a reason in Pennsylvania ultimately, and you know, I
think it's interesting as a swing state. They have a
(55:10):
pretty close state legislature as well, and there's been some
great work that they've done on gun violence as well.
Speaker 3 (55:16):
Javna Crockett Jasmine Crockett.
Speaker 4 (55:17):
I love her.
Speaker 6 (55:18):
She is amazing.
Speaker 13 (55:20):
I think that people want to see somebody who fights
and calls up Ultimately. I think that's what Jasmine does.
And we need a hell of a lot more people
that are out there that are willing to do just
that and call people out on the ps and not say,
oh my god, Republicans are going to criticize me for
saying this, screw that. They're going to criticize you no
matter what. So what we should be asking ourselves is
what are we really fighting for? Because we know it matters.
(55:42):
And I think Jasmine is, frankly the type of leader
that we're really looking to support in some senses, Right,
somebody who is out there that frankly doesn't give a
damn with the other side. At least the elected Republicans
in Congress say that say what they believe in, and
at least you know, even if you don't agree with her,
you know what she stands, Yeah, because she makes it
very clear.
Speaker 5 (56:02):
Governor Gretchen Wimer. Part of what was really.
Speaker 13 (56:04):
Great with Gretchen Whitmer and her focus was on infrastructure,
right people. I think Democrats need to do a lot
more of finding the issues that nobody likes and addressing
them in a substantial matter. So part of her campaign
was addressing potholes right, really basic, just saying fix the
damn roads. We need more of that. AOC, I mean,
(56:24):
AOC has been a huge inspiration to me. What I
really like about her is more than anything, that you
clearly know that she believes what she's saying absolutely and
she knows how to communicate on social media because she
grew up with it, she's young. And also she doesn't
you know, she's not out there taking money from special interests.
You know, regardless of whether or not you agree with AOC,
(56:45):
at least you can say that she's not owned by anyone.
Speaker 8 (56:48):
My last name.
Speaker 3 (56:49):
These are people who I believe are the future and
now in the future the Democratic Party.
Speaker 2 (56:54):
John Stuart, John Stuart, John Stuart.
Speaker 13 (56:57):
So what I love about John is I think he
and Donald Trump actually have the same greatest strength. And
this is going to sound controversial, is that they're funny.
But I think with John Stewart, what I like about
him is the same thing that I like about AOC.
He's funny, he says what he believes in, and he
gets done. And I know that because I saw when
(57:17):
they were working on the Packed Acts right that summer,
they were Democrats were working on passing the largest expansion
of veterans healthcare. One of those people that I met,
you know, had worked for the federal government. And now
he is facing a very real chance that his retirement
is going to be cut by several hundred thousand dollars
because of this bill that Republicans are pushing through right now.
And I will never forget when John Stewart showed up
(57:38):
to support those veterans and help get that bill passed,
and it did get passed. Is one of the largest
expansions ever.
Speaker 3 (57:44):
Yeah, it's my hope. And I know you can't say this.
I want him to be president of the United States
of America.
Speaker 8 (57:49):
I really do.
Speaker 3 (57:50):
I think that he is such a fantastic messenger and
he actually knows politics and he cares about people, and
for the way to the country is now and where
the country is going as far as messaging, you need
somebody like him front and center.
Speaker 5 (58:08):
It's my thought.
Speaker 2 (58:09):
David Hog, thank you, brother. I like the work that
you're doing. Man, keep fighting a good fight.
Speaker 5 (58:13):

Speaker 8 (59:57):
All right?
Speaker 5 (59:57):
Now pull that finger out.
Speaker 2 (59:58):
Definitely reading this?
Speaker 7 (01:00:00):
Yeah yeah, yeah. So y'all know, Kid Cuttie testified in
court yesterday during a ditty trial and he's just a
quick recap went down on the stand. So a little
bit of backstory. Kacuttie was dating Cassie in December twenty eleven,
and he had claimed he claimed that he ain't even
know that they was still involved when he was dating her,
but then one day he got a phone call from Cassie,
like yo, he found out about us, and he said,
(01:00:22):
what who was he?
Speaker 25 (01:00:23):
So he turned out to.
Speaker 7 (01:00:24):
Be Diddy, So I know, right, the Diddler. So that
apparently all held brooklues. Right Kiddy alleged that Kadcutty he
got Kad Cutty's address from Cassie What and ABC News
broken down. But before we get to the breakdown and everything,
keep in mind, kid Cutty's name is Scott Meskady. That's
what y'all gonna hear in this report.
Speaker 16 (01:00:43):
Kid Cutty had dated Cassie Ventura, and she testified that
it made Sean Combs jealous and angry.
Speaker 9 (01:00:50):
Meskady testifying about an alleged break in at his house
in twenty eleven, which he says was Comb's showing up
when he wasn't home. Meskadi testified that he had a
tense phone call with Combs where Combs insinuates he was
at Muscudi's home. I said, explicative, you in my house
and he was like, what's up? I was like, expletive,
(01:01:11):
are you in my house? And he said, I just
want to talk to you. I was like, I'm on
my way over right now.
Speaker 25 (01:01:16):
He was like I'm here.
Speaker 2 (01:01:19):
When he arrived, but.
Speaker 16 (01:01:21):
He said Christmas presents he had bought for members of
his family were on wrapped, torn open, and his dog
was locked in the bathroom.
Speaker 2 (01:01:29):
What Yeah.
Speaker 7 (01:01:30):
The interesting thing is they saying, you know, didn't broke
into the house, but it was no signs of forced entry.
So it was like, yo, you just be having your
door open or whatever. I don't know, but it was
no signs of going.
Speaker 5 (01:01:40):
In somebody's house.
Speaker 3 (01:01:40):
And unwrapping Christmas present in the bathroom is a different
level of diabolty.
Speaker 2 (01:01:45):
Yes, it is.
Speaker 7 (01:01:45):
He like a big ass kid, like I got to
rewrap all this. He didn't take anything.
Speaker 5 (01:01:49):
He was like it was trash, trash ass presence.
Speaker 2 (01:01:55):
He said it was snail bags when I watched yesterday,
trash ass presence.
Speaker 8 (01:01:59):
I had all this.
Speaker 4 (01:02:01):
But you know what Cutty said. He was really mad
because he said, did he did something to his dog?
He said, what did did he do to the dog?
He just locked him in the bathroom or just locked
him in that?
Speaker 23 (01:02:08):
Yeah.
Speaker 7 (01:02:08):
Yeah, they also.
Speaker 3 (01:02:11):
I know where going but goddamn that I wasn't going down.
That's a different crime. Must get threw him under the jail. Listen,
they had threw Diddy under the jail. They find out
Diddy was out here diddling dogs.
Speaker 5 (01:02:25):
I'm telling you right now to get all the women.
I promise you White America ain't gonna let you diddle
no dog.
Speaker 7 (01:02:30):
A dog was crazy.
Speaker 2 (01:02:31):
I wasn't talking about diddling dogs.
Speaker 5 (01:02:32):
Go ahead.
Speaker 7 (01:02:33):
So they also covered the alleged car explosion.
Speaker 9 (01:02:36):
ABC News recapped that too, Meskadi describing an alleged twenty
twelve incident where his Porsche nine eleven convertible had been
set on fire. It looks like the top of my
Porsche was cut open, and that's where they inserted the
Molotov cocktail. Mescady testified Arson is part of the racketeering
conspiracy count Comb's faces. Cassie Ventura previously testified that Combs
(01:02:57):
threatened to have Kid Cutty's car blown up.
Speaker 16 (01:03:00):
Kid Cutty's car fire has been talked about for years,
but it's significant now because federal prosecutors are trying to
convince the jury that Sean Combs used Arson as part
of a criminal enterprise. That's one of the predicate acts
of the racketeering conspiracy charge.
Speaker 5 (01:03:19):
Combs denies it. Now, how did they know that it was?
Diddy was a Molotov cocktail and it's a rock bottle.
Speaker 7 (01:03:24):
Funny, they didn't. They didn't get there. But look, I
just want to say, not that I'm justifying, you know
that it's not a car explosion, but when you hear
a car explosion, you think the car boom, Michael Angelo
Bassett dead on the way now. But a Molotov cocktail
is not really like it's not like a bomb, like
a bomb bomb like it's.
Speaker 5 (01:03:47):
Even though you could call that arson.
Speaker 2 (01:03:48):
Well, if the fire gets to certain parts of the car,
it would have exploded.
Speaker 7 (01:03:51):
But the car, Yeah, the car did not explode though
definitely still Yeah, but you know the rumors that we've
been hearing over the years, I'm like, oh, are you
know he really blew up this guy car. I'm thinking
about the whole Yeah, the whole time. All right. So then, oh,
and I just do you want to clarify I said
that did he said that he got the address from Cassie.
(01:04:13):
No kid cutt. He testified and said that Cassie gave
Diddy the his address. All right, cool, So after that happened, right,
they met up to have a man and man conversation
at SOHO and this was the conversation.
Speaker 9 (01:04:25):
Shortly after that alleged incident. Mescadi says he and Combs
met at the Soho House in Los Angeles.
Speaker 16 (01:04:31):
He said he remembered walking into a room with all
sorts of glass windows and Sean Combs staring out the window,
his hands behind his back, looking like what Kid Cutty
called a Marvel's super villain, but he said Combs's demeanor
was very calm.
Speaker 9 (01:04:47):
Mescady said he told Colmbs that Cassie told him she
and Combs were broken up. When the meeting ended, he says,
we stood up, shook hands, and as I was shaking
his hand, I said, what are we going to do
about my car? He looked right back, look at me
very cold stare and said, I don't know what you're
talking about.
Speaker 16 (01:05:04):
And remember Cashi Ventura had sent her mom an email
just before Christmas in twenty eleven saying that Colmes had
threatened to harm both her and Scott the Scudding.
Speaker 3 (01:05:17):
Well, I'll tell you what, man, I can't believe that
y'all are calling Kid Cutty a snitch like Kid Cuddy
is not a street dude. He's a law abiding, tax pay,
tax paying citizen. I've seen him in a wedding dress
before he wearss he wears mass Gara like Man on
the Moon will absolutely turn the man on the stand,
And there's nothing wrong with that.
Speaker 5 (01:05:36):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (01:05:36):
The funniest thing about it is, I don't know if
you've seen the part where he was like when I
heard that, I said, did he let's meet up and fight?
Speaker 2 (01:05:41):
And then he said he thought about it. It was like, Noah,
I don't want to fight. I'm calling now.
Speaker 4 (01:05:44):
And then he called what he said, somebody just blew
up my car. You're right, he's a civilian, Yeah, civilian.
Speaker 7 (01:05:50):
So then all that kid cut He claims that he
realized that he got played by the both of them.
Laura was in Caught yesterday and she said, kay Cutt,
he had a calm demeanor the whole entire time. And
then yesterday after court k Cutty she had a verse
about the whole experience of him testifying.
Speaker 28 (01:06:04):
I just want to say, man, I'm just seeing all
the love and support and I just want to say
thank you so much.
Speaker 21 (01:06:09):
Man.
Speaker 28 (01:06:10):
People have been hitting me up the past week, just
checking in and and even today and just it really means.
Speaker 2 (01:06:19):
A lot to me.
Speaker 28 (01:06:19):
Man.
Speaker 8 (01:06:20):
You guys are the best. I love y'all. This is
a stressful situation.
Speaker 5 (01:06:24):
I'm glad it's behind me.
Speaker 8 (01:06:25):
Yeah, I love y'all.
Speaker 28 (01:06:27):
Man.
Speaker 3 (01:06:28):
The only thing kit Cutty did wrong was not tell
when it first happened. I'm shocked that he didn't tell
when the first but he did.
Speaker 2 (01:06:36):
He did call the police. Remember, he did call the police.
Speaker 4 (01:06:38):
He just doesn't know what.
Speaker 2 (01:06:39):
They still don't know if it was Diddy, But.
Speaker 7 (01:06:44):
You know, the Milotime cocktail have been there, so you
know what was up. No, I'm just saying Meek Mill again.
Breakfast Club. Then got to this man, we are always
up here.
Speaker 8 (01:06:53):
Doing some same week.
Speaker 7 (01:06:55):
Well, you was off yesterday, so me Charllemagne.
Speaker 2 (01:06:57):
Lauren, he says, Charlamagne here.
Speaker 10 (01:06:59):
You know me?
Speaker 2 (01:07:00):
Man.
Speaker 7 (01:07:00):
Look play this audio. Man, this is this is us.
This is why.
Speaker 2 (01:07:03):
Nobody was talking about me in this situation.
Speaker 5 (01:07:05):
Did anybody talk about meeting caught?
Speaker 2 (01:07:07):
No, nobody talking about you, Meek.
Speaker 29 (01:07:10):
Why to Meek's defense in the beginning, when I'm lawsuits
dropped and they was mentioning the rapper and all that
people was like was me.
Speaker 7 (01:07:18):
That was like years ago.
Speaker 2 (01:07:20):
I feel like nobody cares. Nobody thinking about you met.
Speaker 7 (01:07:22):
Wait a minute, he was like, and we did not
dress alike. Yo, we wasn't twinning.
Speaker 3 (01:07:30):
You know what it is when you are at home
on your phone and your your timeline is constantly filled
with pictures of you and then dressed it like, and
people saying things about you and d you think the
whole world is talking about it. That's your small bubble meek.
That sound like I'm giving someund advice.
Speaker 7 (01:07:47):
Yeah, yeah it was. But he he didn't like that,
right because he commented to us, y'all mad, because I
speak up for myself, y'all forgetting y'all. Two women are
new reporters. I've been saving communities and helping families ten
plus years. We don't find the word of talkers. Just
shouldn't have your head as damn I ain't ain't say nothing.
Speaker 5 (01:08:06):
You know what's funny is you ain't saying my head
ain't nappy.
Speaker 7 (01:08:08):
Said that he got me on that me and me
got the same bush. You know what I'm saying, Yes,
the same Frederick Douglass that he had rapping outside the
other night. But I do understand, like you said, when
you you constantly see me meet this and meet that,
and yo, he he this and that, and he got
a fourteen year old son. He said he will never
let fake rumors about his name or manhood linger and
(01:08:30):
be silent. But his son had to see all of
this ish play out and deal with it in school.
So you know, we're just gonna send prayers to you
and your son and offline bro.
Speaker 3 (01:08:39):
Yeah me captain right to speak out if he wants to.
I just be wondering why.
Speaker 5 (01:08:43):
But you know what I was thinking.
Speaker 3 (01:08:44):
I was thinking about this last night in regards to
the whole Diddy Cassie thing, listening to the Kid Cuddy testimony.
When you're Diddy, why would you crash out over a
person you just smutting out? M you got other men
smashing the you're letting her get passed around. But on
the flip side, you mad, she's sleeping with other men.
Speaker 2 (01:09:02):
But that was the allegedly he could. He could only
have her, so so he mad that she didn't let
him watch her. And Cuddy Yeah, like I think, I
guess it wasn't the punisher.
Speaker 7 (01:09:11):
He would have to be supervised, Like he would have
to be the one supervising these sexual freak offs. If
she's doing it, like she can't go out and have
somebody by herself. Did he got to be supervised I.
Speaker 3 (01:09:21):
Just don't understand why you would be crashing out over somebody.
You You just you're literally just treating like a whole yep,
like that's not your wife, that's not the mother and
your kids. You're not treating that woman with no dignity,
no respect. But get you out here allegedly crashing out,
committing real crimes, allegedly because of her.
Speaker 5 (01:09:36):
I don't understand that.
Speaker 4 (01:09:37):
I also think it was who it was is the
fact that these other gentlemen were in the industry. Remember,
he allegedly got mad and that she was He thought
she was dating Chris Brown and you'll kid Cuddy and
then they said something about Michael B. Jordan's So he
was mad at the industry, you know.
Speaker 3 (01:09:50):
Okay, Well, when we come back as the people's donkey

Speaker 17 (01:11:05):
It seeming like they're trying to compete with parties and
women's name all. Yeah, it just seemed like a competition.
It's just too much.
Speaker 7 (01:11:14):
It seemed like a show.
Speaker 17 (01:11:15):
I wish that path was.
Speaker 2 (01:11:17):
That's it.
Speaker 17 (01:11:17):
He say what you have to say now fall back,
because then that will prove his point.
Speaker 3 (01:11:22):
Let me ask you a question. Should we blame the
Bronx for this? Because you know the crazy people in
America do come from the Bronx and all the what
we do, blame the Bronx get blame?
Speaker 17 (01:11:32):
Does the bron get any blame? I want to say
the Bronx. I would just say emotions as women, all
women from all over.

For being racist and sexist, but they have a slog
like a banister that is not in our house, and
it stands that stuff and the banister.
Speaker 21 (01:12:14):
But then they hired them back. So I just think
that's just the biggest talking in my opinion.
Speaker 3 (01:12:19):
Oh okay, but if UPS is a great job, or
is there going to be any backlash to you for
getting on the radio and calling his donkey today?
Speaker 7 (01:12:27):

come back, Leniebni will be here.
Speaker 5 (01:17:42):
Lene Venie.
Speaker 3 (01:17:43):
She's started on Instagram with a series called Parking Lot Pimping,
where she gives just a lot of commentary on social
issues and political issues that are happening in our society.
Speaker 5 (01:17:50):
That has led to her having.
Speaker 3 (01:17:51):
Her own showing remote called the People's Brief, and she'll
be here to talk about it when we come back.
Speaker 5 (01:17:55):
It's the Breakfast Club, the Breakfast Club.
Speaker 4 (01:18:01):
Warning everybody, it's the j Envy Just Hilarius, Charlamagne to God,
we are the Breakfast Club.
Speaker 2 (01:18:06):
We got a special guest in the building, Lonee for me.
Speaker 5 (01:18:09):
What's happening in Lenae?
Speaker 2 (01:18:10):
How are you?
Speaker 25 (01:18:11):
I'm good?
Speaker 2 (01:18:12):
You know, I'm sure that y'all see Lenee all the time.
Speaker 3 (01:18:14):
Her parking lot pimping episodes have come across your feed
in some way, shape or form. But now you got
to show called the People's Brief. Yeah, on Revote Tuesday,
the nine pm. What's the difference between the People's Brief
and Parking Lot Pimping?
Speaker 24 (01:18:24):
Oh?
Speaker 29 (01:18:25):
One thing, we got more time, it's forty five minutes.
It's also not so you know every week news headline.
It's more so evergreen things that are happening in the news,
but things that we can talk about over the course
of time.
Speaker 25 (01:18:37):
Beuse they affect us every day, and just giving people
more tools.
Speaker 29 (01:18:41):
I feel like on social media, I've always tried to
be more information heavy and just provide a positive outlook.
But now that we got more time, we want to
try to provide resources too and answers to questions.
Speaker 25 (01:18:53):
And I just complain, how different is.
Speaker 7 (01:18:55):
It from parking lot pimping.
Speaker 29 (01:18:57):
I won't say it's too different. I still get to
say what I want to say. We what TV fourteen,
so let's cuss in. But the team over there want
to do what I want to do, and that's like
give everybody the truth and be helpful. We kind of
take the same oath doctors do, do no harm and
as much as we can. Yeah, the tone is the same,
(01:19:19):
but it's really cool because it's not it's newsy, but
it's not. I never taken a traditional approach to things.
So it's like a mix of sixty Minutes and John
Tonight with John Oliver, the Daily Show, a little bit
of Amber.
Speaker 25 (01:19:32):
Ruffin but with me.
Speaker 7 (01:19:33):
Yeah, it's well rounded.
Speaker 25 (01:19:34):
It's very well rounded. We have a lot of fun.
Speaker 29 (01:19:36):
The first couple of episode, the first episode this week Tuesday,
and I had Angela Rye on as my first guest.
Speaker 7 (01:19:42):
That was amazing.
Speaker 5 (01:19:43):
Angel.
Speaker 29 (01:19:44):
Yeah, we get to get out in the field, do
something on the street. But a lot of good people
come through and we have a lot of fun.
Speaker 5 (01:19:50):
Do you write from a place of anger or hope
or exhaustion?
Speaker 25 (01:19:56):
All three of them? And it's funny you say that.
Did y'all see inside out?
Speaker 23 (01:20:00):
Oh?
Speaker 4 (01:20:00):
Hell yeah?
Speaker 29 (01:20:02):
Okay, if you've seen them, then you get the concept.
I have my friends say like, who's at our leaderboard?
And everybody said my top three are anger, discussed, and joy.
Because of the way that I see things, I just
I'm real big on character above anything, and the way
you like contribute to society above anything. So more often
than not, I'm disgusted, and more often than not that
(01:20:22):
makes me exhausted. And you know, a lot of things
make me anger. But I also think anger is a
baalid emotion and it doesn't always have to present in
a way that is heavy.
Speaker 25 (01:20:30):
It's just what it is. Like, I'm a black woman
in America.
Speaker 29 (01:20:33):
A lot of things make me upset, and I should
be able to say that without being made to feel
like I have to cover up my emotions in any
particular way. But I think the method of storytelling me
uses combines all those things in a beautiful way that
also shows that we're more than our anger and more
than our joy. More than our exhaustion, more than our disgust,
and we can be all things at one time and
still be full functioning members of society.
Speaker 7 (01:20:56):
How did you end up a revolt? How did that?
Speaker 11 (01:20:58):
You know?
Speaker 25 (01:20:59):
Good people speaking my name in good rooms.
Speaker 29 (01:21:01):
I've been very blessed to have a good team no
matter what I'm working on, and they've been fighting for
me in different rooms. I've been pitching different versions of shows,
whether it's scripted unscripted, for the past five years, and
nothing's just been the right fit. But as I said,
I be in tune with the Lord, and he told
me at the end of the last year to stop
trying to force things and to just put stuff down
(01:21:22):
and let him work. And so as I said, okay,
wasn't even expecting it. Two weeks later got a call
and said Revolte wants to.
Speaker 25 (01:21:28):
Give you a show.
Speaker 29 (01:21:29):
I was like what, Wow, okay, and my hands were open,
so I was ready to receive it. So that's how
we ended up together.
Speaker 5 (01:21:35):
Well, I wonder for somebody like you, Lene, what do
you do when you feel like your words on enough?
Speaker 25 (01:21:39):
I don't feel like my word's on enough.
Speaker 29 (01:21:41):
I feel like I do what I'm supposed to do,
and I'm okay with that my contribution as long as
I do my best, I'm okay with that whatever the
result is, because whatever I was supposed to contribute is
all I was supposed to contribute, because it's not just
up to me, it's not just up to anybody. Like
we all put in, we all have a piece to
the puzzle to create the fuller picture. And sometimes it
(01:22:02):
may feel like it didn't hit the way you was
supposed to hit, But you got to give things time.
Speaker 25 (01:22:07):
Like the sows.
Speaker 29 (01:22:08):
The seeds you sow always have their time for harvest.
And I've just learned to be content and patient with
my contribution.
Speaker 3 (01:22:14):
So it's sometimes you feel like it's like a call
to action, almost like you might activate the person who
might go out there and actually get active due.
Speaker 25 (01:22:22):
Yeah, that's absolutely what I feel like. My lane is.
Speaker 29 (01:22:25):
I feel like I am My job is sent part
information to bring as many people to the table as possible,
to make them invested, to make them excited, and those
are the people that go out and do something with it.
Even when I left my master's program, my professors told
me I was only going to be able to make
money or make a life for myself if I continue
to get my PhD, and that's not what I felt
called to do. I immediately wanted to go and share
(01:22:45):
with very young people all the things that I learned
in my program that I had to pay twenty five
thousand dollars and take out loans to get with all
these real stuffy people that may not have the best
methods as far as connecting with the general public. But
I was like, if I can impart this in high
school students, they can apply to college, they can go
on career paths that with the knowledge, with a fuller
(01:23:08):
knowledge of their capacity and ability and vocabulary and nuance
to be change agents. So that's all I've ever wanted
to do, and that's what I'm doing, and I'm grateful
for that.
Speaker 7 (01:23:17):
And as a spellman grade, congratulations, I love that. What
part of that HBC you experience has shaped your voice?
Speaker 29 (01:23:26):
Well, at Spelman, we got a SAand it's my choice,
and I choose to change the world. And it's funny,
I've said this, I've told this story so many times,
but when I was first applying, I had teachers at
my high school telling me they didn't think I should go.
They didn't think that I would get in because it
was too expensive, that it wasn't.
Speaker 25 (01:23:42):
The real world.
Speaker 29 (01:23:43):
But we shouldn't be encouraging our kids in masks to
go to school to learn how to plug into the
way things already exist. Like we need to be disruptives,
we need to be change agents. And that's what my
HBCU did for me. I was a psychology student, but
every single class as you take, whether it's the biology
of women, whether it's math, finite math, or whatever computer science,
(01:24:06):
you take it through the lens of black feminism. And
so we have advantage point that allows us to see
everybody's pain and it just makes us. That's why we
be the best advo guests for the job most of
the time, most most suited for the job most of
the time, because we see people. And so my HBC
experience really allowed me to see what people need in
order to feel seeing and I try to put that
(01:24:27):
in my storytelling as well.
Speaker 3 (01:24:29):
How do you navigate being both a political educator but
also a cultural influencer and an algorithm driven work.
Speaker 29 (01:24:40):
Well, politics was never my game, it was never my choice.
You couldn't touch me with politics with a ten foot pole.
It just became necessary. So, like I said, I've always
been driven by what's necessary, and I started this work
to really be steeped in pop culture and connect that
through to history through an interdisciplinary lens. But as I began,
I started twenty twenty, so politics was just like thrust
(01:25:03):
upon us in a real way, and so I challenged
myself to say, like, Okay, I know that we need
to understand this, so how can I incorporate this into
what I do? And it just became even more and
more and more necessary. So I just think because I
speak to people like we cousins, like we family, because
I don't try to hit people over the head with it,
and because I, like I let myself feel all the
things like a regular person feels, the algorithm can't beat.
Speaker 25 (01:25:28):
The content that I'm putting out.
Speaker 29 (01:25:30):
Yeah, Like I draw people regardless, and people sharing it
in their family group chats, Grandmas and aunties and kids
in seventh grade and high school students all like talking
about what was on the parking lot this week. And
I'm really grateful for that because it's not about me
and my parking lot. It's really about the information being shared.
So I'm grateful for the anointing that's been put on me.
That's allowed no matter what's changed in the social media landscape,
(01:25:53):
people to come to the parking lot every Friday.
Speaker 4 (01:25:54):
We're still kicking it with line Vani. She has a
show on Revolts.
Speaker 3 (01:25:57):
Charlemagne was one political issue you think just we've become
too performative about and not solution or into enough about.
Speaker 29 (01:26:04):
I think it's sustaining period, sustainability period in terms of
how we organize, in terms of how we fight back
against political oppression, because we often wait the four year
cycle to begin to complain about what we don't like
about candidates and then are upset when we're not able
to show up in full force and vote together, and
(01:26:25):
that make a difference. I don't think that we give
ourselves the opportunity for our work to actually for our
work to return to us in a good way, because unfortunately,
a lot of times we are motivated by rage and
sadness and we want to get active when things hit
close to home. But something that's always hitting close to
home for everybody, and if we don't learn to act
as a community and have this sort of sustain Garrison
(01:26:47):
Hayes said in a segment in My episode this past Tuesday,
he said, these people don't let up. They've been strategizing,
they don't stop strategizing, So why should we, And especially
if we're already playing catch up, Like it's never a
day when we should just be like, oh, the struggle
will be here tomorrow. But that means you should also
be strategizing for tomorrow. It's and it's not to say
(01:27:07):
that your life has to be completely shaped by that,
because I say often like I don't my friends think
I'm single now, and they're like, so what you want
like a Mark lamont Hill.
Speaker 25 (01:27:17):
No, Like, no shade to Mark.
Speaker 29 (01:27:18):
He's great, But I don't need that to encompass my
entire life, Like I'm still a human being.
Speaker 25 (01:27:23):
So I'm not saying that you.
Speaker 29 (01:27:24):
Gotta live, breathe, die, fight the power, but you do
have to have some things ingrained in the way that
you move about your day period.
Speaker 25 (01:27:33):
To understand that the work never stops. So you gotta
find that balance.
Speaker 7 (01:27:36):
And for you, I want somebody who knows that women
can have babies. Oh, okay, only women can have babies.
Speaker 29 (01:27:43):
I just want to let you know that interesting there
are other people who can have babies. Okay, yeah, I
mean if they have a uterus, they can have babies,
but they just must identify as women. Ohky to two
different things, Like you can be biologically female, but you
can't be biologically woman.
Speaker 25 (01:27:57):
This woman is a gender construct, no social construct. If
you got a uteriasy, you can have a baby.
Speaker 7 (01:28:03):
Yes, that's the point. If you have a uterusy, you
can have a baby.
Speaker 25 (01:28:06):
Okay, cool, Yeah we agree on that.
Speaker 3 (01:28:09):
And has the Democratic Party tried to co op your
platform or methodge because I was reading this article in
the New York Times yesterday and it was the headline
is Democrats throw money at a problem, but it basically
is out there paying influences.
Speaker 5 (01:28:22):
And they're trying to figure out how to utilize the internet.
Speaker 2 (01:28:24):
And you deliver message in the game.
Speaker 29 (01:28:27):
I think people got to understand is Republicans have been
using people with a microphone for years to just disseminate misinformation.
Speaker 25 (01:28:34):
So it's not even like.
Speaker 29 (01:28:36):
That's not a tool that shouldn't be used because we
do have to have some opposition. They haven't tried to
buy me. No, I only talk to people I want
to talk to. There's no amount of money, there's no
check that just would make me want to like jump
on the bandwagon, especially because I have critiques. I gotta
be able to say whatever I want to say. And
the Democratic Party definitely got some things that need to
(01:28:56):
be worked on. I had the honor of working with
some good people the CBC, And that's the other thing.
Like we live in America, there's no institution that's got
it right or has always had it right from jumps.
So I don't sit here and act like I absolutely
have to agree with something a body has done since
its conception. But if I'm working with people who I
understand are genuine and their efforts, like, I'm down with
(01:29:18):
that because, like I said, I'm trying to be solution
oriented and do no harm and as much as I can.
Speaker 5 (01:29:23):
And you mentioned Garrison earlier. I like Gason a lot too.
Speaker 3 (01:29:26):
Have you all ever thought about being in politics.
Speaker 17 (01:29:30):
Of the world.
Speaker 29 (01:29:33):
I'm not sure where Garrison has planned. I have mess
some influencers who are interested in that work. I just
don't think it's personally my calling. Like I said, I
think my role is to inspire and my role is
to work alongside. When we look at people who have
been a part of our story as far as Black
history goes, we got people in every industry, and I
think we forget that it's.
Speaker 25 (01:29:52):
Not just about politics. It's also about who is singing songs.
Speaker 29 (01:29:56):
It's also about who's acting on TV sceriens because even
like the breakfast Club, who's listening to you guys speak
every day like we all have a role in getting
people engaged in a process, and we have to be
in the marketplace, in mass and in different ways to
be able to exercise enough influence to get people focused
back in on the problem. So I'm just one of
those people. And I consider myself more of an artist
(01:30:16):
than anything, a storyteller. As I said, I'm getting back
into my poetry and spucking word. But that's what I
feel called and.
Speaker 7 (01:30:24):
Sat to do.
Speaker 2 (01:30:25):
When you asked Thelman, what was your major psychology?
Speaker 5 (01:30:28):
You want to be a therapist psycho?
Speaker 2 (01:30:29):
Absolutely not.
Speaker 25 (01:30:30):
I wanted to understand people.
Speaker 3 (01:30:32):
Ooh yeah, so you're major in psychologist just to be
able to understand people?
Speaker 5 (01:30:35):
Absolutely dope. What did you want to understand about people?
Speaker 8 (01:30:39):
Exactly?
Speaker 25 (01:30:40):
Behavior? What drives behavior? Also what affects behavior?
Speaker 29 (01:30:44):
And you find out, you know, one of the biggest
arguments is nature versus nurture. You just find out all
the things that contextualize those two things, whether it's your upbringing,
whether it's like in the things you might Inherit also
like what socioeconomic stressors that have affected your family long
term that can result and yield in specific behaviors or
even psychotic breaks or what have. You have to get
(01:31:05):
too deep into that kind of stuff. But at the
end of the day, and I also was a person
I grew up in the Deep South Baptist, I didn't
really understand that much about therapy, and I remember in
one of my first classes, I was like, yeah, that's
cool and all I want to learn about bipoliticist order,
but like black people don't really get that right, and
it was like.
Speaker 25 (01:31:23):
No, girl, we all are exposed to these sort of things.
Speaker 29 (01:31:26):
But anyway, I think at the end of the day,
it just really helped me understand emotions and like I said,
the validity of them and giving them space to exist
and what can trigger you on what can't, and then
also how outside stressors like race, like gender, like sexuality
or whatever also contribute to a person's well being. And
(01:31:47):
I think saying it right now, I think what I
just want most is for Black people to be well
no matter what you look like, no matter who you with,
no matter how you move throught your life. I want
us to be well and I want us to be
invested in the wellness of one another, because the object
goals of opressions to make us sick, to make us distracted,
And if we are focused on one another's wellness and wholeness.
Speaker 25 (01:32:07):
Then we can be stronger than everything.
Speaker 3 (01:32:08):
Yeah, what's the moment when you realized your influence was
having real world consequences?
Speaker 25 (01:32:12):
For better all words, real world consequences.
Speaker 29 (01:32:15):
Honestly, because I started during the pandemic, we was all inside,
so I didn't get to really get to see people.
But when we started to trickle back outside, and unfortunately
Atlanta was among the first to get back outside. When
people started meeting me and just like crying, like talking
about like how either I changed their perspective on something,
or I helped heal a relationship in their family, or
even really what it was. I think I was invited
(01:32:38):
to speak somewhere at the school, and an older woman
about sixty years old. She took me to the side
and she thanked me for saying things she never got
to say when she was my age, And that was
really beautiful.
Speaker 25 (01:32:48):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (01:32:49):
Well, Lenae with Mee hosted the People's Brief every Tuesday
at nine pm on Revolt and I guess we get
parking a lot of people when we can.
Speaker 25 (01:32:55):
Yeah, for sure.
Speaker 29 (01:32:57):
Where they follow you at, Oh, you can follow me
everywhere at you can tap into the show of Revolt TV.
Speaker 25 (01:33:03):
You can also watch us at.
Speaker 29 (01:33:04):
Eleven am the next day on streaming and then snippets
up it on YouTube.
Speaker 5 (01:33:09):
Absolutely, it's the Breakfast Club, the Breakfast Club.
Speaker 2 (01:33:16):
Morning everybody.
Speaker 4 (01:33:17):
It's d J n V, Jess, Hilarry, Charlamagne to God,
we are the Breakfast Club. It's time for past the auks.
Speaker 8 (01:33:35):
Yeah, DJ now with them on Big Mother f N
nine Loo.
Speaker 32 (01:33:41):
I love that jacket in the morning, Like you said this,
every time I wear this jacket planes right, I don't
got that white.
Speaker 33 (01:33:48):
Yeah, you need to tell them to send them to you.
Speaker 32 (01:33:51):
But anyway, we have a lot to get into because
it's a lot going on in the rap world right now.
People online are calling it Joey versus the West Coast,
Joey versus twenty Joey has been rapping and I've been
here for it. I've really been enjoying this battle. So
let's kick it off. I'm gonna just do the most
recent records.
Speaker 5 (01:34:09):
From the battle telling people who the battle is.
Speaker 3 (01:34:11):
For those who don't know the battle, I mean, it's
really Joey Badass versus Raybon.
Speaker 33 (01:34:15):
Is that what you narrowing it down?
Speaker 5 (01:34:16):
Toted?
Speaker 33 (01:34:17):
Yes, well it was really. It started in December with
Joey kind.
Speaker 32 (01:34:21):
Of coming at Kendrick like this whole time, Joey is
really trying to get at Kendrick.
Speaker 33 (01:34:26):
Kendrick is not responding. You know, Kendrick's on tourist is
mine of his business.
Speaker 32 (01:34:29):
So Rayon, Yes, Rayvon has responded, but reason has also responded.
Speaker 2 (01:34:35):
As well, and didn't have a reason.
Speaker 33 (01:34:38):
Everybody's reason is they got to wrap the West.
Speaker 32 (01:34:41):
Okay, you know people, it's it's getting like not territorial, regional. Yes,
so regional rap is back, and let's start with Joey
Badass crashed them.
Speaker 3 (01:34:50):
You know what this is good because all this reminded
me was Damn, I used to really like Joey Badass,
And it's not like like I dislike him now. He
just you know, I just haven't heard a project in
a while. I think the last thing he put out.
Speaker 33 (01:35:01):
Was a two thousand and you like that project.
Speaker 9 (01:35:03):
I like.
Speaker 2 (01:35:04):
I like all American badass, like nineteen ninety nine. I
like Joey bad ass as an artist, but bad as busy.
Speaker 5 (01:35:09):
He got into his acting bag, but just just reminded.
Speaker 3 (01:35:11):
Me, like yo joy, he can't wrap joe like that.
Last week too, when I saw the ass Soul freestyle
with him and Big Sean.
Speaker 33 (01:35:18):
Full Cipher with Fire somebody else from the West.
Speaker 3 (01:35:22):
As long as it stays like this, that was funny though.
When Joey said that there's some guy named ass Cheeks
coming to him.
Speaker 9 (01:35:29):
That was.
Speaker 3 (01:35:31):
When you look at the name, you like a cheeks.
If you don't say a cheeks, it doesn't look like
it could be ass cheeks.
Speaker 32 (01:35:36):
But now, but now, Rayvon's trying to insinuate that, like
Joey Badass is gay because it's partying with Diddy.
Speaker 33 (01:35:45):
I mean, let's let's get into it.
Speaker 7 (01:35:47):
This is Rayvaughn's Golden Knife.
Speaker 3 (01:35:49):
Can't I can't call it golden knife? He said he's
standing next to did he should have called it brown eye?
Speaker 7 (01:35:54):
That's cheeks?
Speaker 20 (01:35:55):
No?
Speaker 2 (01:35:55):
No, no, oh, my goodness, Raymond the Good to Bad
and Something. That album is the good God.
Speaker 32 (01:36:07):
I just want to highlightkyd Cash because this was actually
a really really fired freestyle that he wrote one two
he's actually from New York because people are saying it's
just Joey when it's not just Joey.
Speaker 33 (01:36:18):
There's other spinners.
Speaker 32 (01:36:18):
And I think Kyle did the best and he dropped
Nixon the sixth to day that the next one, So
let's get into it.
Speaker 4 (01:36:24):
I'm going off too.
Speaker 7 (01:36:25):
Yeah, that sounds like something you would have said that
Laurence shell Man put more bubbs and weaves.
Speaker 33 (01:36:35):
Yees No, that's that's ky.
Speaker 32 (01:36:37):
And I see a lot of people online saying like
nobody cares about this g league rap, and I just
I really hate that narrative.
Speaker 33 (01:36:45):
I think it's unfair and it's not helping, Like this
is healthy.
Speaker 2 (01:36:48):
Yeah, it's healthy if you like hip hop. It is
healthy if you like rap.
Speaker 3 (01:36:52):
I just happened to be a person who has been
bumping the good, the bad, and the Dolomnue. So I'm
already on rabon and I'm a person that's always bump
Joey Badass, So you know those two I'm in.
Speaker 5 (01:37:03):
I'm all in for.
Speaker 33 (01:37:03):
Why is it just those so you gotta reasons?
Speaker 5 (01:37:05):
I'm old, I gotta focus.
Speaker 2 (01:37:07):
What about reason I have?
Speaker 3 (01:37:08):
I didn't have a reason to listen to the reason
I mean, and it wasn't even I just didn't And
I like, I like all the lyrical exercise. And I'm
not saying I'm not gonna listen. I'm just saying my
first priority was Ravon and Joey bad as I've been
looking to them when they drive.
Speaker 2 (01:37:20):
Okay, everybody else that's.
Speaker 32 (01:37:22):
Involved, No, this is Kai has getting a lot of
new followers, people calling him like the.
Speaker 3 (01:37:27):
M v P.
Speaker 7 (01:37:28):
You put me on him, yest listening to him, So
that's that's dope, lovely, and it's cool, it's peaceful.
Speaker 3 (01:37:33):
It seemed like they just doing it for sport. It's
lyrical exercise. It ain't nothing crazy going on. I haven't
heard anybody really disrespect nobody's family and nothing like that.
Speaker 5 (01:37:41):
Calling somebody gay, that's.
Speaker 33 (01:37:42):
Regular, that's regular, regular to you, and envy that's regular?
Speaker 17 (01:37:48):
What you mean by that?
Speaker 7 (01:37:50):
That ain't regular to him? He said, don't do that.
Speaker 3 (01:37:52):
And hip hop being called gay in a rap battle,
being called a snitch, being called.
Speaker 2 (01:37:56):
A sucker, those are like, that's those are the basics.
Speaker 33 (01:37:58):
Oh okay, that's it, so basic.
Speaker 23 (01:38:02):
Got it.
Speaker 32 (01:38:03):
How do you feel about D One's take saying that,
like he's saying that he doesn't like the beef and
that it's or it's unfair that people only care about
rapp when people are beefing.
Speaker 3 (01:38:13):
I think I don't believe that. I don't think people
only care about rapping when people are beefing. And I
think that if D One knew some of the inner
workings of what's going on behind the scenes, he wouldn't
take this so serious.
Speaker 33 (01:38:24):
Oh so, do you think this is just an album
roll out?
Speaker 3 (01:38:26):
I'm not gonna say it's just an album roll out,
but I think that there's a lot of conversations happening
behind the scenes more than people know. I think people
are having conversations about you know, we're just rapping now,
like you know what I mean, And I think people
are taking it.
Speaker 22 (01:38:36):
In that way.
Speaker 33 (01:38:37):
You think people are taking it that way?
Speaker 5 (01:38:39):
What do you mean the artists are?
Speaker 33 (01:38:40):
I think the artists are taking it that way, but
