Speaker 5 (02:25):
Hi, everybody, this is episode forty two of Laugh and Learn.
I'm here with my beautiful friend Flame and Roe and
obviously me Bobby Clifford, ready to talk about all the
craziness that's.
Speaker 4 (02:38):
Been going on in DC. Are you ready claim.
Speaker 6 (02:42):
I'm ready about it? Will Bobby take the lead this
week y'all because y'all know it's a very hard week
for me. But I'm here, as you know if you
follow me on it's on social media. I lost timmy
last week and it has really devastated me. Then my
kids are really acting crazy. It's just been a trying,
trying week, but not as trying as what's happening in
(03:04):
our America, in this government and in this crisis in
time that we're living in. It is barbaria to the
situations that we are. And I'm loving the fact that
I'm not loving that we have to realize this. I
think that God put Trump in our lives for a
reason to make us understand what's most important. Y'all kept
looking at people cause of their color or cause of
(03:26):
their stature, when you didn't put all of us in
the same damn ship again on the Titanic, when the
ship sank, rich poor in between sank, they sank too.
We are fucking sinking. And I'm a little passionate today
because I'm hurt and I'm angry, but I am very
(03:48):
happy to see that on today, on this day, on Saturday,
April the fifth, the protests, our fucking hands off is everywhere.
Every city has rallied together. Bobby said they had one
hundred thousand in the rain in the You know, they're
everywhere there in Wisconsin, they are in Minnesota, they are
(04:11):
in West Virginia. They are everywhere saying enough is enough.
And this has only been two months. We don't want
this no more, America. We got to push racism to
the back burner because it's bullshit. But what y'all do
right now is helping. I don't know how much help
it's going to do at the moment because they still
run all branches of government, but our voices will be
(04:34):
heard and they are being heard. So thank you, guys
for the protests everywhere. The protests look like what he
wanted his inauguration took like right.
Speaker 4 (04:46):
It's true.
Speaker 5 (04:47):
A lot of people, I mean, you just said it.
In Boston alone, where I'm at, we have driving rain.
We're having like a real spring rainstorm. And there were
one hundred thousand large with all of our all of
our big wigs, Ayana Presley, our congresswoman, Senator Marquee, the mayor,
(05:07):
the lieutenant governor, a big showing and the driving rain
of from the drop kick Murphy's flamed. They were rolling
them out in wheelchairs. There were elderly people rolating themselves
and they're there. The hands are off rallies. Leave our
social security, our medicare, and our medicaid the f alone.
And that was the that was the biggest message. It
(05:28):
was pro worker, pro constitution, and pro Democrat. And this
is one of the only ways this and our and
our power of our purse are two of the only
ways until this next election in a year and a
half come up that we can actually.
Speaker 4 (05:47):
Say something we also had.
Speaker 5 (05:49):
Let's not forget and you can feel any sort of way,
but at least he was trying to do something. Hory
Booker twenty five hours and five minutes railing against what
he feels is potentially going to be wrong with what
Trump is doing and what this new administration is doing.
He outbeat Strong Sermon, who was against civil rights. So
(06:10):
I love to see that racist put into his place,
and especially by a black man. So people are trying
to do stuff, but we have to we have to
hold strong. We have to get a message, you know,
the Democrats have to get a message, and.
Speaker 4 (06:27):
You're going to keep moving. But this, I thought this
was impressive. D C's was huge. The mall was filled.
Speaker 5 (06:33):
As you said, there were twelve hundred cities that did this,
so it wasn't just like each state, you know, what
happened in the capitals.
Speaker 4 (06:39):
They were all over. I found this pretty impressive.
Speaker 6 (06:44):
So do I, Bobby, and only I can't. I know,
we can't go back, but we needed this passion. We
needed this aggression. We needed this fire November the fourth,
This is what we need. And the people were warning you, guys,
but you were so held that on this thing to
the foodighes. So again, when you're empty, it's easy to
be poured into It's what you allow to be poured
(07:06):
into you. Pete Boutage is I want to give a
quote from Pete boutagets. He says, even the greatest country,
He says, even the greatest country, if it loses the
rule of law, will not have much left. We are
losing our rule of law. But I think that we
are deep enough in and have realized that they don't
care about our seniors, our veterans, our working class enough
(07:30):
to say, goddamn it, enough is enough. Because America we
some disgruntle bastards. Let me say that I'm an American.
I am a disgruntle bastard. And when you push me
to the wall, the discruntal bastard stands up, push my
dukes up, and we gonna swing back. I love that
we are swinging back. I love that we are swinging back.
I just hope it's not too late by me. I
(07:52):
hope it's not too late to turn it around.
Speaker 5 (07:54):
I don't think it is. I really believe that, but
we have to keep this momentum up.
Speaker 6 (07:59):
It is.
Speaker 5 (08:00):
It's not just Democrats, it's independence and even which we'll
talk about in a second. There are there are especially
against the tariffs some Canada, there are members staunch members
of the GOP that are voting with the Dems to
get stuff done. No, I mean people are just they've
had it. You know, Musk, his sales have plunged thirteen percent.
(08:24):
One because people.
Speaker 4 (08:25):
Don't like Musk, I'm sure or you know what he's doing,
what he's trying to do. Two is they're all against
ev cars. That's what his car is.
Speaker 6 (08:32):
You know.
Speaker 5 (08:32):
Biden probably had his numbers soaring because he was pushing,
you know, alternative methods for energy. But is what we're
going to have to do. Sometimes you have to break
everything to the ground to actually fix it. And I
think we've become, to be quite honest, too complacent. We've
talked about this before. We just kind of sailed along
and didn't really we weren't really worried about what was happening. Now,
(08:55):
all of a sudden, we have you got Greenland and
Denmark or anger with you. We've got all sorts of
travel warnings about going out as Americans, be careful where
you're headed.
Speaker 4 (09:08):
We never had anything like that.
Speaker 6 (09:09):
My God.
Speaker 5 (09:10):
I used to go out, go to different countries and
hold my head high. You know, we're stripping down stuff
at the Smithsonian and telling them to put back up.
Since twenty twenty we had all that Confederate statues and
stuff removed. He's having those put back in. He's throwing
everything against the wall. I don't know why. I think
he likes to see things broken, and it's up to
(09:32):
us to do exactly what we did today.
Speaker 6 (09:34):
Meanwhile, trying to dismantle anything of black and brown descent.
They want to do away with the African American just
sum and the Museum in DC. They want to do
away with all the indigenous stuff. They want to do
away with anything of history. It's ridiculous. But I do
agree with what you said, Bobby. I think that God
is going to have us completely dismantle because what America
(09:55):
is is not what America is right now. What America's
standing point on was people cared about each other, people
took care of each other in some kind of way.
He allowed them to take everything away to what and
we got, like you said, we got a place and
I got this. I'm cool. If you don't get it,
I don't know what to tell you. I'll give you
a little bit, but not more than me. I don't
(10:16):
want you to be as quell as me. Maybe maybe
we needed to be humbled as a country.
Speaker 4 (10:23):
You just said.
Speaker 6 (10:24):
I hate that it had to come to this, but
maybe we needed to be humbled as a country, to
be reminded that we are of our humanity. So from humbled,
from from humble to humanity, the title might be exactly
what we are, because this is what has happened to us. Bobby,
(10:46):
let me tell you something. I worked in the club
last night with them with Tiffy had it in the
most diverse artist. It had to be six hundred people
in there, and this was a comedy club, so I
was able to interact with the people. It's not like
we were at a theatre arena where they couldn't you know,
I couldn't treat you. And I hosted the show and
I talked to the people, and I made fine of
(11:06):
all the races and woo woo, and after the show,
I announced at the end of the night. Now, this
is what I want you to take away from this
comedy show. You have heard this word, you've heard that word.
You heard me made fun about Mega, about Democrats, about Republicans,
about black and white and Latino and Asian, and you've
heard me say all. And guess what we all did tonight.
(11:27):
We all laughed together. We all laughed together. If laughing
is what is going to be the healer, then I'm
the damn bandaid because I bandiated it last night. It
just I don't know where we allowed it, this hate
and its bitterness to come from the top and just
trickle down over America. And it's got us going. And
if y'all think that these protests are something, you wait
(11:49):
to these tariffs kicking in and he just dropped, because
I'm telling you right now, you was worried about a
dozen of eggs being ten dollars. A low for bread
will be a fucking thousand. It will be a luxury
to have a loaf for breathing. It will be a
luxury to have gas in your car.
Speaker 5 (12:07):
Yep, even if it's an American, because that's the part
that everybody is. I was listening to a gentleman that
has a dealership. I guess he's a big wig. Bobby
owns a gazillion dealerships. And he was talking about and
he's a Republican, and he's talking about the most popular car,
a truck of Ford F one fifty. And he said,
(12:28):
fifty three percent of the of the parts are here
in the United States. The other forty seven come from
different countries. He said, his car is there exponentially going
to go up by four to five thousand dollars at least,
he said. The thought that people are going to eat
those costs is ridiculous. Of course, it's going to be
(12:49):
passed on to the consumer. So you're just even talking
about bread. There might be flowers we don't have, or
it just it's crazy. He wants to promote me on
your face. It takes three to five years to get
a to get a building erected for the manufacturing, never
mind to train the people.
Speaker 4 (13:07):
That are in it.
Speaker 5 (13:08):
So we're all for three to five years going to
drive the same cars. Hope your car is not on
its last leg or whatever it is, whatever item that
you think you are. And now we're Americans, let's not
forget that. We're not going to work for fifteen dollars
a week like they are in China. So an iPhone
that costs one thousand dollars because it comes from China
(13:32):
will be thirty five hundred dollars here in the United
States to manufacture because we pay a certain.
Speaker 6 (13:38):
Wage might be cheap. And if China to go over
you the phone, huh.
Speaker 5 (13:45):
You absolutely and stay that you could have a little
vacation and go pick up all year whatever. But that's
exactly it makes no sense. It's not financially or economically
smart to get everything and to make everything here. We
want more money, you know, we want a minimum wage.
They don't have minimum wage there. And unfortunately people you
can live cheaper, but you can't hear, so nobody will
(14:07):
be able to afford anything. It's absolutely crazy the way
that it's going. We have the thirty four percent. China
did that retaliation tarraff this week. We're in big trouble
with the tariffs. He better peel it back.
Speaker 6 (14:19):
Yeah, So I think who's in the most trouble here?
And I think people are missing a point Because I
was listening to Bill Maher and I forget who the
man name was on there, So he was talking about
and I think the millionaires are probably the people who
are going to be the most in trouble in this country,
because what is going to happen is, y'all hear me,
hear me, well, the billionaires. Once the tear they raised,
(14:42):
the tears, people will will stress out and they will
sell everything. The billionaires will buy everything, They will buy everything.
Then they will drop the terars on other countries. But
what has happened is other countries are now doing business
with each businesses with each other, excluding America, which will
(15:02):
lower the value of the American dollar. So even once
we drop the terriffs, after they have already set an institution,
the billionaires will own everything. We will have to do
business with our own American counterparts, the billionaires who have
bought everything, which means they can set the price whatever
they want. So the rich will get wealthy and the
(15:23):
poor will get destitute. This is what we are and
this is what we allow, and this is who we
voted for. It will be different if he was born
into royalty. This was his bloodline. Unfortunately, y'all failed for
the Okie dock, and y'all voted for this man because
y'all was so filled with hate and rage and oh,
we're going to be the minority that you allowed this
(15:45):
to happen.
Speaker 5 (15:48):
Yeah, I was listening to somebody to build on what
you just said. His name is Dave Portnoy. He was
the founder of barstool Sports. It's a online barning betting site.
I guess he is a millionaire, not a billionaire, and
he was He's Republican and he was outraged.
Speaker 4 (16:09):
The other day he took to social media.
Speaker 5 (16:11):
He lost seven million dollars in that one day and
he was absolutely furious. So you're exactly right. The billionaires
are going to be the safe ones. The millionaires who
think that they're all that in a bag of chips.
Speaker 4 (16:24):
They're not going to have as much as they actually
thought they were going to that they actually have.
Speaker 5 (16:28):
Sometimes I'm almost happy to be poor right now.
Speaker 4 (16:35):
How the mighty have fallen, But I don't have that
fire to fall myself.
Speaker 6 (16:39):
The billionaires will crazy, The billionaires will consume everything.
Speaker 5 (16:46):
Yeah, and the same faces that we keep seeing, the
same faces. The only thing I thought I found funny
this week, And I was thinking to you, because I
love when you say, well, use your expression.
Speaker 4 (16:58):
This is about Elon Musk and.
Speaker 5 (17:02):
Trump has said twice publicly about how oh he thinks
that he's going to go back soon, he'll be he'll
be out of Doshun because he's going to want to
go and run his companies. You know, we're so lucky
to have him, but I'm thinking you're about to lose
your job.
Speaker 4 (17:20):
And he will be blaming. Everything will be your fault.
You're going to see that.
Speaker 6 (17:26):
Excuse me. That was always set in stone because as
soon as Trump partnered with Musk, it was a big thing.
But when must started getting more limelight, more shine, more
stage time, it really got up under Trump's skin. You
have to know where you stay with him. You have
to stay in his shadow, close enough to his life,
(17:48):
but always in his shadow. That's not Elon Musk's role.
So it's going to play out in public and it's
going to be very it's going to be very ugly. Bobby. Honestly,
I think.
Speaker 5 (17:59):
It is true, and I think part of that is
they keep saying that Mosque has Asperger's and so part
of me feels badly for him because he doesn't know enough,
like he doesn't have the social cues when you have
Assburgers to know enough.
Speaker 4 (18:11):
He thinks he's rocking it.
Speaker 5 (18:12):
And you know, Trump is sitting behind that the resolute desk,
and he's happy. He's not happy with his kids sitting there, musks,
kids sitting there picking his nose and him giving the
big speech. He's only happy if he can blame something.
You know, like, what do you use.
Speaker 4 (18:29):
The expression as an overplay for the underplay?
Speaker 5 (18:31):
Yeah, he's just Trump is thinking about, Okay, if we
do this and it doesn't work, at least it's not
going to fall on me, that's all.
Speaker 4 (18:40):
He's not loving them.
Speaker 6 (18:42):
And with Corey Brooker what he did, I'll tell you,
I want to get excited that you know he did it.
He may history whatever, but I have to remember who
Corey Brooker is. You know, I have to remember the
Tita today. This is the problem everybody. Fear is is
is what's the word? Fear is almost key, It's almost
(19:07):
intoxicating sometimes because you're afraid. Then you make me afraid
watching you be afraid. It'll make me afraid. If you
don't know who you are and you are empty, fear
will win. We lost this election off of fear. Body,
We lost this election off of fear and promises that
he said, I'm gonna get you back. I'm gonna pay
you back. I'm gonna pay you back. Hell, you don't
(19:28):
even pay your damn bills back the way he was
talking about here, gonna pay you back. But y'all fail
for y'all fail for it, and we are in such
a bad place and such a crisis. I do not
want us to go into a war. No promises that
he made. You remember, this was the same guy who
said he had no idea what Project twenty twenty five is.
And we're not even three months in and probably eight
(19:49):
hundred of those nine hundred pages are being executed as
we speak.
Speaker 4 (19:54):
Oh, he's trying. He's trying something.
Speaker 5 (19:56):
I mean, the other thing we have to do everybody
is you have to hold regardless of who I don't
care what party they are, you have to hold people
accountable when they screw up. I am so disappointed. We
started to talk about signal Gate last time. It didn't
even have a name with you know, Haig Seth and
Walls giving out. They say that they weren't plans to plans,
(20:19):
war plans, but they were something they told the time,
They told what would happen, what was used. But just
to say we screwed up. We're never going to use
this signal system again, and we're sorry. There are like
doubling down And I don't care who you are. That
was wrong, so wrong, and why they can't just own anything.
(20:40):
That's the other thing I don't like about this administration.
We all make mistakes, just own it.
Speaker 6 (20:46):
That wasn't a mistake, that was idiotic incompetence and unqualified opportunity. Well,
y'all ave to holid You put people who that's like
you put me in a rockety science class and tell
me I think I need to make a spaceshift to
go out of space. Ar I'm sorry. That would be
Eli Musk after eight attempts. But that would be like
I would be a fish out of water. I wouldn't
(21:07):
know what is what and I would say, because I know, listen,
I can't do this job. I'm not qualified for this job.
But they're there, their power, they're there. I have to
be in control or you can't tell me what. We'll
have superseded everything and they go in like a shark,
even if it's wrong with the collateral damage. Unfortunately, it's
(21:30):
the American people and we are losing Bobby. We are losing.
And if America with these tariffs going up like this,
if the value of the American dollar drops, oh my god,
we're going to be If people say they don't need
American dollars anymore, we will be in a way more
trouble than we know. I don't think people have really
come to the whole full realization of that, the impact
of that.
Speaker 4 (21:51):
They should be watching.
Speaker 5 (21:52):
I mean all the doll the doll plunged I think
it was twenty two hundred points the other day and
then went down another six hundred the next day. And
I remember Trump saying, I think it was during Biden
during the COVID period, the beginning COVID, when the when
the doll was dropping that you know, people should be
(22:14):
fighting from their job, take thrown out of office or whatever.
If you had two days in a row that were bad,
that went under five, what about the Oh that's not
a problem. They're estimating now that the tariffs, the more
that they're seeing them and the more realistic it is,
they're going to cost the average households. Now the newest
the newest number is fifty five hundred a year. That
(22:35):
that I can't I don't make a ton of money.
Fifty five hundred a year is huge. That could go
on my student loan, for the love of God. And
that's gross money, people, that's not net like after your
taxes and everything. That's right off the top. So God
knows in net money what that is.
Speaker 4 (22:50):
It's probably double.
Speaker 6 (22:52):
I was watching President Obama, former President Obama speak the
other day. He was like, could you imagine if I
had on a midgeon of this, just a little part
of this? And he was so right, because sometimes you
don't want to face it, they don't want to hear it.
But I love that he called it out because we
(23:12):
got on him for wearing a tan suit. Could you
imagine had he done some of these Atlantis states with
this new administration and stuff, they would have crucified this man.
Speaker 4 (23:22):
They absolutely well, and I saw that. I loved that.
Speaker 5 (23:25):
When he was speaking, he said, the same people who
are completely silent about what's happening right now would have
eaten me alive.
Speaker 4 (23:33):
You know, it's just it's important, Hey.
Speaker 6 (23:37):
You know what happened. Unfortunately, you know what happened by me.
I had to go back to the Bible. They didn't
believe Jesus either, until after they crucified him.
Speaker 5 (23:49):
I know, I keep thinking, Joe Biden's probably sitting going
that you're loving me now, everybody. He had the strongest
economy in the world walking out. Of course, they're still
blaming him. The real crazy mega people like that. And
I say crazy because they really don't do any of
the work, and they don't look at any other channel
but Fox, you know, like I watch five and six
(24:12):
channels every week because I don't want to be biased
by anybody. I just want to have the most fair news.
They don't believe any of it, but they're blaming Biden.
He and Kamalas screwed the country up so bad, so
bad that it went three months into the net when
it was the strongest economy. They had such talents that
they could flip it around and make this happen. This
is a direct relation to what he's doing. It's all
(24:35):
his plan. He's not shocked that it's happening. He's golfing.
For Christ's sake, we're paying for him to golf.
Speaker 6 (24:42):
Well, we've been discussed that, but this is what's going
to flip the last few Republicans that we have in
this country that don't want to bully they may have
went along with the bullshit, but when this Dow jones
them lose the money in the stock market so rapidly
and so heavily, this is what's gonna make them pay attention,
because you, like you said, Bobby, when you hit people
(25:03):
in their pockets and make them pay attention. Target has
taken an ass whooping. Walmart has taken an ass whooping,
and now some of you billionaires a millionaires from the
stock market from him making these incompetent decisions in the
White House taking an ass whooping, losing tons of money
a day. You said seven million, they said Elon Muslow
twenty nine, like twenty nine billion in a day or
(25:25):
something like that. That is that is money that we
will not probably never see in two lifetimes. But for
them to lose something like that and one day, that
is one that is going to make the last few
of the good Mohicans stand up and be like, you're
done it, We're done. We can't we cannot afford this,
We cannot take this in competence. No matter how white
we want this country to be, or how no matter
(25:47):
how Christian we claim we want this country to be,
this is not working for us. That's what's gonna take.
I'm telling you, Bobby, they gonna get their ass kicked,
and then they gonna kick his ass out, and then
they're gonna kick his ass out.
Speaker 5 (25:59):
I want safe, so I always I have never gone
to bed, thanks to our military and thanks to strong
leadership both Republican and Democrat. I've never gone to sleep
prior to this, and worried. Even in Trump's first term,
I wasn't happy with it, but I don't feel the
sense of I'm worried because you know so many people.
(26:21):
He's irritating everybody, and you just spoke about the good
Republicans that are voting, So I don't know anything anything's
going to happen with this about the the tariffs for
Canada because they're saying it's fentanyls related, so they're they're
(26:42):
hitting Canada with the twenty five percent tariffs, and we
the obviously what party line. Pretty much all the Democrats
voted no because it's not about the fentanyl that that's
not why he's trying to hit them. And Susan Collins,
Lisa Murkowski, Mitch McConnell, and I'd like to have a
drum world, please, Rand Paul All voted against it. All Republicans,
(27:07):
staunch Republicans, and I think, you know, and stuff like this,
you're gonna you're gonna start things. Things are gonna start
hitting differently. And I think I don't know how much
he pays attention, President Trump, but I'm hoping that his
cabinet does that. They pay attention to win their own
people and people that have you know, our live or
(27:27):
die Republicans are voting against them. I hope they take
a step back and say, you know, our trading partners,
Mexico and Canada, maybe maybe we shouldn't be hitting them.
I do think that Mexico should have a little bit
more responsibility for the fentanyl. But she's been stepping it up.
She's put you know, more bodies on it, more money
to it. I don't know how much, you know, more
(27:48):
she could do. And we have a lot of goods
that come from from Mexico, so besides the people that
are coming over the border.
Speaker 4 (27:55):
So I think that we got to figure it out.
Speaker 6 (27:59):
By the tears have already hit me. You know, I
sell fans on the road. I sell my fans from China.
Speaker 5 (28:06):
I thought of that, I said, her fans are going
to be fifty bucks, you know with the could you
he paid twelve for the shipping?
Speaker 6 (28:13):
Yeah? Yeah, the shipping cops used to be like a
little bit over one thousand bucks for air. Now with
this new thirty four percent height on the on the
tails body, it's going to cost me at least three
to four thousand dollars just to ship. Not this is
not the product.
Speaker 5 (28:31):
This is just no exactly, just to get it here. Yeah,
just to get it here. And I always say to
people when you're when you're seeing Flame and you see
her all the time, the best place to get your
fan is when you when you're actually with her, because
you don't have to you know, there's an additional shipping cost.
Her fans are reasonable, it's the shipping that kills her
when she's getting them out to you. God, I hope
that doesn't go up. It'll be they'll be prohibitive.
Speaker 6 (28:54):
Listen, Yeah, be collective's items because I'm not going to
spend out my money on there, and I'm not going
to charge to consume. I'm not going to charge my
fans forty and fifty bucks for a damn fan. I'm
not going to do that. I just don't think that
that's right. And people are living at hard times. A
low for bridge, this is not damn bread. A low
for bread is going to be bananas. How are you
going to feed your family? I'm telling you, But y'all,
(29:15):
I don't know if people thought that long term. They
believed the foolishness that he was shoveling down their throat, Bobby,
and they fell for it, hook line and sinker, and
some would threat some was just being threatened. But like
for the Latinos and for even for the black people
who voted for him, and even for the poor whites
in Virginia whose parents were on oxygen and on installin,
(29:37):
and well, he's not gonna you guys are really filling
the country right now. I don't want to say, like,
like Kamala Harris said the other day, I told you so,
and she fell out laughing, but she did tell you.
She did.
Speaker 4 (29:49):
They just didn't believe it. They didn't think it would
hit them.
Speaker 5 (29:53):
We have federal employees that are Republican who really believed
it wouldn't come down, and it wouldn't.
Speaker 4 (29:59):
He didn't. Here's the saying.
Speaker 5 (30:00):
And I'm going to give President Trump credit. He told
you exactly what he was going to do.
Speaker 4 (30:06):
He didn't lie that.
Speaker 5 (30:08):
The only thing he lied about was were more of
the positive things like he was going to bring He
was going to get rid of the wars on day one.
That's not doable. You know, you can't do that. He
was going to bring down prices. That's foolish because it's
a global market. If people you know that that are
sending stuff from India, so we can you know ingredients ober,
unless their product goes down, our product's not going to
(30:29):
go down.
Speaker 4 (30:30):
But he didn't. He didn't deliver on any of that.
But he told you all the other miserable stuff he
was going to do, and he's doing it. And you
know what, does Maya Angelo saying you should have believed him.
Speaker 6 (30:43):
So let's break down the terroifs again, Bobby, because I
think people were misunderstood standing that. You guys thought that
the terror price raises, what's going to happen to the
to the people who were sending him over. He's going
to affect you, the consoler that buy. It's the tacks,
your eyeglasses, your your some of your prescription medication, uh,
(31:09):
things that you rely on day to day that you
probably don't even think about you see that made in China,
made in China, you'd be thinking that's cheap. That made
in China about to be real expensive. It's about to
be real expensive to see that made in China on
your ship.
Speaker 5 (31:23):
And you just said something that was so important that
I don't think then people think of you said medications.
Do you know where a ton of our medications come from?
Speaker 4 (31:32):
Canada?
Speaker 6 (31:33):
Canada? Exactly exactly.
Speaker 5 (31:35):
So now you're if you were having a tough time. No,
So there are things that are great. If there are
things that we actually have here, we should always My
father came from He was a teamster, and so we
always believed that if it was made in America, if
we could buy it here and the product was was
just as good, and usually it was better, and it
(31:56):
was affordable within you know, all percentage, we always bought here.
Speaker 4 (32:01):
And so that is true.
Speaker 5 (32:03):
We still want to do that, but but there are
some things we just can't. We just talked about iPhones.
You just can't get here, and by the time they
get it, they get it up and running, and even
when they do, it's going to be so much more expensive.
It doesn't make sense to have it here. We've just
it's a tariffs are attacks people. I don't know what
they think it is. It's a tax to the consumer.
(32:24):
The consumer is the person who purchases it to make
our products, and it's going to be passed on to
the end user US. So yeah, it's we're in trouble
with the tariffs.
Speaker 6 (32:34):
They don't.
Speaker 5 (32:35):
I'm hoping, just like he kept postponing them in the beginning,
I'm hoping that he's seeing that he's plumbing and it's
not just our dow everybody. This is the world, you know,
the economy is all over the place for the entire world.
People are going to resent us like you can't believe,
because we're effing up there their economies as well.
Speaker 4 (32:54):
But I'm hoping that he after I'm going to give
them a week, he pulls this crap down before too
much damage is done.
Speaker 6 (33:02):
And then when you said, Bobby, you used to do
I love what you said. You traveled, but you held
your high hell high as an American in foreign countries.
That is almost possibly scary to do now because foreigners
blame Americans right now, not for the situation they're in,
but for putting Trump in office. Again. He didn't he
(33:25):
was not born into this. He wasn't born royal. We
elected this fool to be in office who said to
us publicly, I can shoot somebody in middle of Central
Park and get away with it years ago and didn't
say it as a joke and got away with it.
Who said that if I ever run, I'm going to
run as a Republican because they're the dumbest voters ever.
Speaker 5 (33:49):
Yeah no, and he did, and yeah, absolutely, And it's
it's the people know one off, and they understand it's
not just that people vote because everybody thinks our country,
they're like, well, more people voted, yes, the people who
voted fifty two voted for them. It's more people are
angry about the ninety million that stayed home why And
(34:09):
that's what allowed him to get in. So in other
countries are well aware of it.
Speaker 7 (34:14):
I wanted to have many of that ninety I wanted
to have many of that ninety million as out of
these protests right now, when all you had to do
is go vote, vote, then you would have to be
out in the rain and the cold.
Speaker 6 (34:24):
Protesting because of you would have just voted correctly. You know,
even though even though allegedly these swing state machines, got
got a jar, get fixed to get tinkered with. But
had you came out in the droves with the popular vote,
you wouldn't be in this situation you are now. But
you wanted to sit back and be like, Oh, it
(34:45):
doesn't matter me, it's not going to affect me. It's
affecting the shit out of you right now.
Speaker 4 (34:49):
It's going to affect all of us.
Speaker 5 (34:51):
I think the other thing that I definitely want us
to mention today is we had the special elections in
both Florida as well as Wisconsin. In Florida, they had
two seats, two congressional seats up. Now I didn't think
that I didn't think that we would flip those seats,
but I wanted to see what the margins will be.
And let me tell you, they're saying the margins were
(35:13):
way closer than than the GOP that that was helping
to run the seats in Florida ever anticipated. And then,
as we know, there was a Supreme Court seat up
in Wisconsin and that seat did flip to a Democrat.
And that one, that one was a that's a high
(35:33):
stake seat because uh Tesla has a uh A case.
That's it that's in in Wisconsin. So I am sure
that the cabinet, uh, that this administration wanted to flip
that seat, but they didn't.
Speaker 4 (35:47):
People.
Speaker 5 (35:48):
People are having enough. So UH, we've got to get
a message though people. If we want to flip every
other seat that's coming our way or you know the
bulk of them and in it's a little over a
year and a half, a year and nine months, then
we better get at it.
Speaker 6 (36:04):
And the protests are large, Lady, The hands off protests
all over the country are magnanimous. They are huge. This
is people crying out in pain and anguish and despair
and hurt. And I don't know what else to do
because you didn't do it when you were supposed to
do first, Lady Michelle Obama said do something. I wish
(36:26):
we had done something November fourth. Unfortunately we didn't. But
now we are flipping this I'm telling you about. The
telltale sign was just what you said when Wisconsin flipped.
So the place in Pennsylvania, Pennsylvania, Yeah, they flipped. But
the dal Jones because this is for people who are
invest in in UH and and who have big investments
(36:48):
that are losing their money. It's quick for one case,
gone money, just that you knew that you had for
a lifetime to fall back on gone. This is what
is going to make people say, I'm not doing this shit.
He got to go. They're going to I think he's
going to get ousted. I don't know how, but I
think they're going.
Speaker 4 (37:09):
To oust him in jobs forget. So you're you are right.
People have who had a lifetime. But there are a
lot of federal employees. We have had the highest.
Speaker 5 (37:18):
Unemployment that we've had and I think they said six
years other thay, no, not six since COVID, since the
beginning COVID, So that's going to be five years. And
it's in what with the bulk of the positions federal
These are people that work their entire lives waiting for
their pension, making less money, and and to the way
(37:38):
that they're doing it. It's not that what they're doing
is wrong. Every single administration has said that going to
get rid of fraud and abuse, and but it's so
complicated that people it kind of dies on the vine.
You know, a little bit gets done, but not a
ton of it. But you don't go in and literally
eviscerate whole whole departments without seeing exactly and then having
(38:00):
to put people back in.
Speaker 4 (38:02):
RFK just did that.
Speaker 5 (38:03):
They let they let oh bunch of people up, and
now he's saying, well, some of those people are going
to come back because we didn't realize what programs they ran,
and those programs said.
Speaker 4 (38:11):
How about this do it for sasshole, Look and see
what they actually do.
Speaker 5 (38:16):
You might not be might not know it, but get
one of your directors who can tell you what each
one of those jobs does, and then figure it out
that's what's supposed to happen, and audit lame. It might
have taken the full four years to even get to
a point where you could have gotten some of these
get rid of some of these positions, but it would
have been just just and done well, rather than just
go in and then cut it all and and not
(38:37):
let these people easily get unemployment, make it so that
it looks like they were they were let go for cause,
and they weren't let go for cause at all, other
than a.
Speaker 4 (38:46):
Fool is doing it.
Speaker 5 (38:50):
Did you see that the correspondence Diinner, I love the
correspondence Stinner that they have they've gotten rid of the comedian.
Speaker 6 (38:59):
I saw that Bobby and people saying, Oh, they got
rid of her cause she's black. I'm like that. That
may have been a very tiny percentage of it. But
she said something that the Orange Man was not pleased with,
and they went back to research their history and that's
why they got rid of her. I personally thought they
were going to use Hackler or Heckley, whatever his name was,
the guy who did the speech, the comedian that he
(39:21):
used at the New York rally. I thought he was
the shoe in for that job and that petition. Anyway,
after how disgrupted he was at the rally, but it
caused so much ruckus and it seemed to have we
thought it was going to hurt his campaign. It seemed
to have helped it. But yeah, I saw that they
got her. I think she found out too. I think
she fucked around and found out too.
Speaker 5 (39:41):
Yeah she Well, it's it's they loved their like little
kids and sour grapes, do you know, like it just
it's the Other thing that I thought was shocking this
week was.
Speaker 4 (39:52):
Adams.
Speaker 5 (39:53):
Adams charges have been dropped the un York mayor and
he is not running as a Democrat at longer. He's
now going to run as an independent, and I thought, wow,
that's quite interesting. I see for some reason, I think
Foremost is going to end up with that seat, and
I think he'll do a hell of a job. To
be quite honest with you, Adam's he's too slippery for me.
(40:16):
So I saw that picture with you with him, and
he's a very little guy.
Speaker 4 (40:19):
He didn't even look like he came up to your shoulder.
Speaker 6 (40:22):
He came to my nipple. That works for me. But
he was a very pleasant man, and I knew he
was under a lot of fire for New York. New
York was furious with him for some of the antics
that they said that he pulled. I don't know all
the details of it, but he was kind to me
when I met him, and I knew he was face
in prison time. He was facing jail time. So when
(40:44):
Trump got appointed an office, he just jumped ship like
most people do when they don't want to go to jail.
I don't follow him for that, because sometimes you have
to save your own ass. But I'm not a New Yorker.
I can't tell you how new Yorker is steel because
New Yorkers don't hold shit back how they feel. They
tell you right there spot on. You ain't got to
wait for it. It's coming right there, like a training
(41:05):
with no breaks. So he jumped shifted so for Trump
to save his ass. So now he's running as an independent.
You have to ask yourself how many how many candidates
or how many people officials have done that exact same thing.
I know I'm in hot water. I know I'm in
trouble under the Democratic Party. So I'll jump ship to
go up under Trump because he'll save me.
Speaker 4 (41:26):
He flips so that he could run.
Speaker 5 (41:28):
So and his kids infected one of the kids for
the first for the first time his first term. Couldn't
vote for him because they forgot to. It was one
of the boys. They forgot to check their box. They
forgot to go in and change from Democrats too.
Speaker 6 (41:43):
Don't do that. They didn't forget you just said it
was one of his sons. They ain't forget you already know.
You already know the fruit. The fruit don't fall far
from the tree. But with Mayor Adams, you know, I
don't know all that deliver with him. But he was
kind to me when I met him in Chicago, saying
much and when I was at the DNC. But Bobby,
(42:04):
you know this has been a trying week, ladyes Jim,
I know this is not my regular perky laugh a learned,
but we were glad to be able to transfer the
information to you guys. We are a little delayed this
week because it's just been a week for me. Aaron
was traveling, I was dealing with last Bobby is my girl.
Bobby's trying to find a gain for employment. So anybody
is hiring that needs a great research analyst, somebody that

now we're living in some shit. He called the other
countries third world country shitholds. He has turned us single
(43:12):
handedly or he's trying to into a shithold and as
American citizens were not fucking having it. So to all
the people out there in the world that are protesting
for the hands off protests all over the country, well done.

Hey't know this through what you do? Hey, no peace,

Speaker 5 (02:25):
Hi, everybody, this is episode forty two of Laugh and Learn.
I'm here with my beautiful friend Flame and Roe and
obviously me Bobby Clifford, ready to talk about all the
craziness that's.
Speaker 4 (02:38):
Been going on in DC. Are you ready claim.
Speaker 6 (02:42):
I'm ready about it? Will Bobby take the lead this
week y'all because y'all know it's a very hard week
for me. But I'm here, as you know if you
follow me on it's on social media. I lost timmy
last week and it has really devastated me. Then my
kids are really acting crazy. It's just been a trying,
trying week, but not as trying as what's happening in
(03:04):
our America, in this government and in this crisis in
time that we're living in. It is barbaria to the
situations that we are. And I'm loving the fact that
I'm not loving that we have to realize this. I
think that God put Trump in our lives for a
reason to make us understand what's most important. Y'all kept
looking at people cause of their color or cause of
(03:26):
their stature, when you didn't put all of us in
the same damn ship again on the Titanic, when the
ship sank, rich poor in between sank, they sank too.
We are fucking sinking. And I'm a little passionate today
because I'm hurt and I'm angry, but I am very
(03:48):
happy to see that on today, on this day, on Saturday,
April the fifth, the protests, our fucking hands off is everywhere.
Every city has rallied together. Bobby said they had one
hundred thousand in the rain in the You know, they're
everywhere there in Wisconsin, they are in Minnesota, they are
(04:11):
in West Virginia. They are everywhere saying enough is enough.
And this has only been two months. We don't want
this no more, America. We got to push racism to
the back burner because it's bullshit. But what y'all do
right now is helping. I don't know how much help
it's going to do at the moment because they still
run all branches of government, but our voices will be
(04:34):
heard and they are being heard. So thank you, guys
for the protests everywhere. The protests look like what he
wanted his inauguration took like right.
Speaker 4 (04:46):
It's true.
Speaker 5 (04:47):
A lot of people, I mean, you just said it.
In Boston alone, where I'm at, we have driving rain.
We're having like a real spring rainstorm. And there were
one hundred thousand large with all of our all of
our big wigs, Ayana Presley, our congresswoman, Senator Marquee, the mayor,
(05:07):
the lieutenant governor, a big showing and the driving rain
of from the drop kick Murphy's flamed. They were rolling
them out in wheelchairs. There were elderly people rolating themselves
and they're there. The hands are off rallies. Leave our
social security, our medicare, and our medicaid the f alone.
And that was the that was the biggest message. It
(05:28):
was pro worker, pro constitution, and pro Democrat. And this
is one of the only ways this and our and
our power of our purse are two of the only
ways until this next election in a year and a
half come up that we can actually.
Speaker 4 (05:47):
Say something we also had.
Speaker 5 (05:49):
Let's not forget and you can feel any sort of way,
but at least he was trying to do something. Hory
Booker twenty five hours and five minutes railing against what
he feels is potentially going to be wrong with what
Trump is doing and what this new administration is doing.
He outbeat Strong Sermon, who was against civil rights. So
(06:10):
I love to see that racist put into his place,
and especially by a black man. So people are trying
to do stuff, but we have to we have to
hold strong. We have to get a message, you know,
the Democrats have to get a message, and.
Speaker 4 (06:27):
You're going to keep moving. But this, I thought this
was impressive. D C's was huge. The mall was filled.
Speaker 5 (06:33):
As you said, there were twelve hundred cities that did this,
so it wasn't just like each state, you know, what
happened in the capitals.
Speaker 4 (06:39):
They were all over. I found this pretty impressive.
Speaker 6 (06:44):
So do I, Bobby, and only I can't. I know,
we can't go back, but we needed this passion. We
needed this aggression. We needed this fire November the fourth,
This is what we need. And the people were warning you, guys,
but you were so held that on this thing to
the foodighes. So again, when you're empty, it's easy to
be poured into It's what you allow to be poured
(07:06):
into you. Pete Boutage is I want to give a
quote from Pete boutagets. He says, even the greatest country,
He says, even the greatest country, if it loses the
rule of law, will not have much left. We are
losing our rule of law. But I think that we
are deep enough in and have realized that they don't
care about our seniors, our veterans, our working class enough
(07:30):
to say, goddamn it, enough is enough. Because America we
some disgruntle bastards. Let me say that I'm an American.
I am a disgruntle bastard. And when you push me
to the wall, the discruntal bastard stands up, push my
dukes up, and we gonna swing back. I love that
we are swinging back. I love that we are swinging back.
I just hope it's not too late by me. I
(07:52):
hope it's not too late to turn it around.
Speaker 5 (07:54):
I don't think it is. I really believe that, but
we have to keep this momentum up.
Speaker 6 (07:59):
It is.
Speaker 5 (08:00):
It's not just Democrats, it's independence and even which we'll
talk about in a second. There are there are especially
against the tariffs some Canada, there are members staunch members
of the GOP that are voting with the Dems to
get stuff done. No, I mean people are just they've
had it. You know, Musk, his sales have plunged thirteen percent.
(08:24):
One because people.
Speaker 4 (08:25):
Don't like Musk, I'm sure or you know what he's doing,
what he's trying to do. Two is they're all against
ev cars. That's what his car is.
Speaker 6 (08:32):
You know.
Speaker 5 (08:32):
Biden probably had his numbers soaring because he was pushing,
you know, alternative methods for energy. But is what we're
going to have to do. Sometimes you have to break
everything to the ground to actually fix it. And I
think we've become, to be quite honest, too complacent. We've
talked about this before. We just kind of sailed along
and didn't really we weren't really worried about what was happening. Now,
(08:55):
all of a sudden, we have you got Greenland and
Denmark or anger with you. We've got all sorts of
travel warnings about going out as Americans, be careful where
you're headed.
Speaker 4 (09:08):
We never had anything like that.
Speaker 6 (09:09):
My God.
Speaker 5 (09:10):
I used to go out, go to different countries and
hold my head high. You know, we're stripping down stuff
at the Smithsonian and telling them to put back up.
Since twenty twenty we had all that Confederate statues and
stuff removed. He's having those put back in. He's throwing
everything against the wall. I don't know why. I think
he likes to see things broken, and it's up to
(09:32):
us to do exactly what we did today.
Speaker 6 (09:34):
Meanwhile, trying to dismantle anything of black and brown descent.
They want to do away with the African American just
sum and the Museum in DC. They want to do
away with all the indigenous stuff. They want to do
away with anything of history. It's ridiculous. But I do
agree with what you said, Bobby. I think that God
is going to have us completely dismantle because what America
(09:55):
is is not what America is right now. What America's
standing point on was people cared about each other, people
took care of each other in some kind of way.
He allowed them to take everything away to what and
we got, like you said, we got a place and
I got this. I'm cool. If you don't get it,
I don't know what to tell you. I'll give you
a little bit, but not more than me. I don't
(10:16):
want you to be as quell as me. Maybe maybe
we needed to be humbled as a country.
Speaker 4 (10:23):
You just said.
Speaker 6 (10:24):
I hate that it had to come to this, but
maybe we needed to be humbled as a country, to
be reminded that we are of our humanity. So from humbled,
from from humble to humanity, the title might be exactly
what we are, because this is what has happened to us. Bobby,
(10:46):
let me tell you something. I worked in the club
last night with them with Tiffy had it in the
most diverse artist. It had to be six hundred people
in there, and this was a comedy club, so I
was able to interact with the people. It's not like
we were at a theatre arena where they couldn't you know,
I couldn't treat you. And I hosted the show and
I talked to the people, and I made fine of
(11:06):
all the races and woo woo, and after the show,
I announced at the end of the night. Now, this
is what I want you to take away from this
comedy show. You have heard this word, you've heard that word.
You heard me made fun about Mega, about Democrats, about Republicans,
about black and white and Latino and Asian, and you've
heard me say all. And guess what we all did tonight.
(11:27):
We all laughed together. We all laughed together. If laughing
is what is going to be the healer, then I'm
the damn bandaid because I bandiated it last night. It
just I don't know where we allowed it, this hate
and its bitterness to come from the top and just
trickle down over America. And it's got us going. And
if y'all think that these protests are something, you wait
(11:49):
to these tariffs kicking in and he just dropped, because
I'm telling you right now, you was worried about a
dozen of eggs being ten dollars. A low for bread
will be a fucking thousand. It will be a luxury
to have a loaf for breathing. It will be a
luxury to have gas in your car.
Speaker 5 (12:07):
Yep, even if it's an American, because that's the part
that everybody is. I was listening to a gentleman that
has a dealership. I guess he's a big wig. Bobby
owns a gazillion dealerships. And he was talking about and
he's a Republican, and he's talking about the most popular car,
a truck of Ford F one fifty. And he said,
(12:28):
fifty three percent of the of the parts are here
in the United States. The other forty seven come from
different countries. He said, his car is there exponentially going
to go up by four to five thousand dollars at least,
he said. The thought that people are going to eat
those costs is ridiculous. Of course, it's going to be
(12:49):
passed on to the consumer. So you're just even talking
about bread. There might be flowers we don't have, or
it just it's crazy. He wants to promote me on
your face. It takes three to five years to get
a to get a building erected for the manufacturing, never
mind to train the people.
Speaker 4 (13:07):
That are in it.
Speaker 5 (13:08):
So we're all for three to five years going to
drive the same cars. Hope your car is not on
its last leg or whatever it is, whatever item that
you think you are. And now we're Americans, let's not
forget that. We're not going to work for fifteen dollars
a week like they are in China. So an iPhone
that costs one thousand dollars because it comes from China
(13:32):
will be thirty five hundred dollars here in the United
States to manufacture because we pay a certain.
Speaker 6 (13:38):
Wage might be cheap. And if China to go over
you the phone, huh.
Speaker 5 (13:45):
You absolutely and stay that you could have a little
vacation and go pick up all year whatever. But that's
exactly it makes no sense. It's not financially or economically
smart to get everything and to make everything here. We
want more money, you know, we want a minimum wage.
They don't have minimum wage there. And unfortunately people you
can live cheaper, but you can't hear, so nobody will
(14:07):
be able to afford anything. It's absolutely crazy the way
that it's going. We have the thirty four percent. China
did that retaliation tarraff this week. We're in big trouble
with the tariffs. He better peel it back.
Speaker 6 (14:19):
Yeah, So I think who's in the most trouble here?
And I think people are missing a point Because I
was listening to Bill Maher and I forget who the
man name was on there, So he was talking about
and I think the millionaires are probably the people who
are going to be the most in trouble in this country,
because what is going to happen is, y'all hear me,
hear me, well, the billionaires. Once the tear they raised,
(14:42):
the tears, people will will stress out and they will
sell everything. The billionaires will buy everything, They will buy everything.
Then they will drop the terars on other countries. But
what has happened is other countries are now doing business
with each businesses with each other, excluding America, which will
(15:02):
lower the value of the American dollar. So even once
we drop the terriffs, after they have already set an institution,
the billionaires will own everything. We will have to do
business with our own American counterparts, the billionaires who have
bought everything, which means they can set the price whatever
they want. So the rich will get wealthy and the
(15:23):
poor will get destitute. This is what we are and
this is what we allow, and this is who we
voted for. It will be different if he was born
into royalty. This was his bloodline. Unfortunately, y'all failed for
the Okie dock, and y'all voted for this man because
y'all was so filled with hate and rage and oh,
we're going to be the minority that you allowed this
(15:45):
to happen.
Speaker 5 (15:48):
Yeah, I was listening to somebody to build on what
you just said. His name is Dave Portnoy. He was
the founder of barstool Sports. It's a online barning betting site.
I guess he is a millionaire, not a billionaire, and
he was He's Republican and he was outraged.
Speaker 4 (16:09):
The other day he took to social media.
Speaker 5 (16:11):
He lost seven million dollars in that one day and
he was absolutely furious. So you're exactly right. The billionaires
are going to be the safe ones. The millionaires who
think that they're all that in a bag of chips.
Speaker 4 (16:24):
They're not going to have as much as they actually
thought they were going to that they actually have.
Speaker 5 (16:28):
Sometimes I'm almost happy to be poor right now.
Speaker 4 (16:35):
How the mighty have fallen, But I don't have that
fire to fall myself.
Speaker 6 (16:39):
The billionaires will crazy, The billionaires will consume everything.
Speaker 5 (16:46):
Yeah, and the same faces that we keep seeing, the
same faces. The only thing I thought I found funny
this week, And I was thinking to you, because I
love when you say, well, use your expression.
Speaker 4 (16:58):
This is about Elon Musk and.
Speaker 5 (17:02):
Trump has said twice publicly about how oh he thinks
that he's going to go back soon, he'll be he'll
be out of Doshun because he's going to want to
go and run his companies. You know, we're so lucky
to have him, but I'm thinking you're about to lose
your job.
Speaker 4 (17:20):
And he will be blaming. Everything will be your fault.
You're going to see that.
Speaker 6 (17:26):
Excuse me. That was always set in stone because as
soon as Trump partnered with Musk, it was a big thing.
But when must started getting more limelight, more shine, more
stage time, it really got up under Trump's skin. You
have to know where you stay with him. You have
to stay in his shadow, close enough to his life,
(17:48):
but always in his shadow. That's not Elon Musk's role.
So it's going to play out in public and it's
going to be very it's going to be very ugly. Bobby. Honestly,
I think.
Speaker 5 (17:59):
It is true, and I think part of that is
they keep saying that Mosque has Asperger's and so part
of me feels badly for him because he doesn't know enough,
like he doesn't have the social cues when you have
Assburgers to know enough.
Speaker 4 (18:11):
He thinks he's rocking it.
Speaker 5 (18:12):
And you know, Trump is sitting behind that the resolute desk,
and he's happy. He's not happy with his kids sitting there, musks,
kids sitting there picking his nose and him giving the
big speech. He's only happy if he can blame something.
You know, like, what do you use.
Speaker 4 (18:29):
The expression as an overplay for the underplay?
Speaker 5 (18:31):
Yeah, he's just Trump is thinking about, Okay, if we
do this and it doesn't work, at least it's not
going to fall on me, that's all.
Speaker 4 (18:40):
He's not loving them.
Speaker 6 (18:42):
And with Corey Brooker what he did, I'll tell you,
I want to get excited that you know he did it.
He may history whatever, but I have to remember who
Corey Brooker is. You know, I have to remember the
Tita today. This is the problem everybody. Fear is is
is what's the word? Fear is almost key, It's almost
(19:07):
intoxicating sometimes because you're afraid. Then you make me afraid
watching you be afraid. It'll make me afraid. If you
don't know who you are and you are empty, fear
will win. We lost this election off of fear. Body,
We lost this election off of fear and promises that
he said, I'm gonna get you back. I'm gonna pay
you back. I'm gonna pay you back. Hell, you don't
(19:28):
even pay your damn bills back the way he was
talking about here, gonna pay you back. But y'all fail
for y'all fail for it, and we are in such
a bad place and such a crisis. I do not
want us to go into a war. No promises that
he made. You remember, this was the same guy who
said he had no idea what Project twenty twenty five is.
And we're not even three months in and probably eight
(19:49):
hundred of those nine hundred pages are being executed as
we speak.
Speaker 4 (19:54):
Oh, he's trying. He's trying something.
Speaker 5 (19:56):
I mean, the other thing we have to do everybody
is you have to hold regardless of who I don't
care what party they are, you have to hold people
accountable when they screw up. I am so disappointed. We
started to talk about signal Gate last time. It didn't
even have a name with you know, Haig Seth and
Walls giving out. They say that they weren't plans to plans,
(20:19):
war plans, but they were something they told the time,
They told what would happen, what was used. But just
to say we screwed up. We're never going to use
this signal system again, and we're sorry. There are like
doubling down And I don't care who you are. That
was wrong, so wrong, and why they can't just own anything.
(20:40):
That's the other thing I don't like about this administration.
We all make mistakes, just own it.
Speaker 6 (20:46):
That wasn't a mistake, that was idiotic incompetence and unqualified opportunity. Well,
y'all ave to holid You put people who that's like
you put me in a rockety science class and tell
me I think I need to make a spaceshift to
go out of space. Ar I'm sorry. That would be
Eli Musk after eight attempts. But that would be like
I would be a fish out of water. I wouldn't
(21:07):
know what is what and I would say, because I know, listen,
I can't do this job. I'm not qualified for this job.
But they're there, their power, they're there. I have to
be in control or you can't tell me what. We'll
have superseded everything and they go in like a shark,
even if it's wrong with the collateral damage. Unfortunately, it's
(21:30):
the American people and we are losing Bobby. We are losing.
And if America with these tariffs going up like this,
if the value of the American dollar drops, oh my god,
we're going to be If people say they don't need
American dollars anymore, we will be in a way more
trouble than we know. I don't think people have really
come to the whole full realization of that, the impact
of that.
Speaker 4 (21:51):
They should be watching.
Speaker 5 (21:52):
I mean all the doll the doll plunged I think
it was twenty two hundred points the other day and
then went down another six hundred the next day. And
I remember Trump saying, I think it was during Biden
during the COVID period, the beginning COVID, when the when
the doll was dropping that you know, people should be
(22:14):
fighting from their job, take thrown out of office or whatever.
If you had two days in a row that were bad,
that went under five, what about the Oh that's not
a problem. They're estimating now that the tariffs, the more
that they're seeing them and the more realistic it is,
they're going to cost the average households. Now the newest
the newest number is fifty five hundred a year. That
(22:35):
that I can't I don't make a ton of money.
Fifty five hundred a year is huge. That could go
on my student loan, for the love of God. And
that's gross money, people, that's not net like after your
taxes and everything. That's right off the top. So God
knows in net money what that is.
Speaker 4 (22:50):
It's probably double.
Speaker 6 (22:52):
I was watching President Obama, former President Obama speak the
other day. He was like, could you imagine if I
had on a midgeon of this, just a little part
of this? And he was so right, because sometimes you
don't want to face it, they don't want to hear it.
But I love that he called it out because we
(23:12):
got on him for wearing a tan suit. Could you
imagine had he done some of these Atlantis states with
this new administration and stuff, they would have crucified this man.
Speaker 4 (23:22):
They absolutely well, and I saw that. I loved that.
Speaker 5 (23:25):
When he was speaking, he said, the same people who
are completely silent about what's happening right now would have
eaten me alive.
Speaker 4 (23:33):
You know, it's just it's important, Hey.
Speaker 6 (23:37):
You know what happened. Unfortunately, you know what happened by me.
I had to go back to the Bible. They didn't
believe Jesus either, until after they crucified him.
Speaker 5 (23:49):
I know, I keep thinking, Joe Biden's probably sitting going
that you're loving me now, everybody. He had the strongest
economy in the world walking out. Of course, they're still
blaming him. The real crazy mega people like that. And
I say crazy because they really don't do any of
the work, and they don't look at any other channel
but Fox, you know, like I watch five and six
(24:12):
channels every week because I don't want to be biased
by anybody. I just want to have the most fair news.
They don't believe any of it, but they're blaming Biden.
He and Kamalas screwed the country up so bad, so
bad that it went three months into the net when
it was the strongest economy. They had such talents that
they could flip it around and make this happen. This
is a direct relation to what he's doing. It's all
(24:35):
his plan. He's not shocked that it's happening. He's golfing.
For Christ's sake, we're paying for him to golf.
Speaker 6 (24:42):
Well, we've been discussed that, but this is what's going
to flip the last few Republicans that we have in
this country that don't want to bully they may have
went along with the bullshit, but when this Dow jones
them lose the money in the stock market so rapidly
and so heavily, this is what's gonna make them pay attention,
because you, like you said, Bobby, when you hit people
(25:03):
in their pockets and make them pay attention. Target has
taken an ass whooping. Walmart has taken an ass whooping,
and now some of you billionaires a millionaires from the
stock market from him making these incompetent decisions in the
White House taking an ass whooping, losing tons of money
a day. You said seven million, they said Elon Muslow
twenty nine, like twenty nine billion in a day or
(25:25):
something like that. That is that is money that we
will not probably never see in two lifetimes. But for
them to lose something like that and one day, that
is one that is going to make the last few
of the good Mohicans stand up and be like, you're
done it, We're done. We can't we cannot afford this,
We cannot take this in competence. No matter how white
we want this country to be, or how no matter
(25:47):
how Christian we claim we want this country to be,
this is not working for us. That's what's gonna take.
I'm telling you, Bobby, they gonna get their ass kicked,
and then they gonna kick his ass out, and then
they're gonna kick his ass out.
Speaker 5 (25:59):
I want safe, so I always I have never gone
to bed, thanks to our military and thanks to strong
leadership both Republican and Democrat. I've never gone to sleep
prior to this, and worried. Even in Trump's first term,
I wasn't happy with it, but I don't feel the
sense of I'm worried because you know so many people.
(26:21):
He's irritating everybody, and you just spoke about the good
Republicans that are voting, So I don't know anything anything's
going to happen with this about the the tariffs for
Canada because they're saying it's fentanyls related, so they're they're
(26:42):
hitting Canada with the twenty five percent tariffs, and we
the obviously what party line. Pretty much all the Democrats
voted no because it's not about the fentanyl that that's
not why he's trying to hit them. And Susan Collins,
Lisa Murkowski, Mitch McConnell, and I'd like to have a
drum world, please, Rand Paul All voted against it. All Republicans,
(27:07):
staunch Republicans, and I think, you know, and stuff like this,
you're gonna you're gonna start things. Things are gonna start
hitting differently. And I think I don't know how much
he pays attention, President Trump, but I'm hoping that his
cabinet does that. They pay attention to win their own
people and people that have you know, our live or
(27:27):
die Republicans are voting against them. I hope they take
a step back and say, you know, our trading partners,
Mexico and Canada, maybe maybe we shouldn't be hitting them.
I do think that Mexico should have a little bit
more responsibility for the fentanyl. But she's been stepping it up.
She's put you know, more bodies on it, more money
to it. I don't know how much, you know, more
(27:48):
she could do. And we have a lot of goods
that come from from Mexico, so besides the people that
are coming over the border.
Speaker 4 (27:55):
So I think that we got to figure it out.
Speaker 6 (27:59):
By the tears have already hit me. You know, I
sell fans on the road. I sell my fans from China.
Speaker 5 (28:06):
I thought of that, I said, her fans are going
to be fifty bucks, you know with the could you
he paid twelve for the shipping?
Speaker 6 (28:13):
Yeah? Yeah, the shipping cops used to be like a
little bit over one thousand bucks for air. Now with
this new thirty four percent height on the on the
tails body, it's going to cost me at least three
to four thousand dollars just to ship. Not this is
not the product.
Speaker 5 (28:31):
This is just no exactly, just to get it here. Yeah,
just to get it here. And I always say to
people when you're when you're seeing Flame and you see
her all the time, the best place to get your
fan is when you when you're actually with her, because
you don't have to you know, there's an additional shipping cost.
Her fans are reasonable, it's the shipping that kills her
when she's getting them out to you. God, I hope
that doesn't go up. It'll be they'll be prohibitive.
Speaker 6 (28:54):
Listen, Yeah, be collective's items because I'm not going to
spend out my money on there, and I'm not going
to charge to consume. I'm not going to charge my
fans forty and fifty bucks for a damn fan. I'm
not going to do that. I just don't think that
that's right. And people are living at hard times. A
low for bridge, this is not damn bread. A low
for bread is going to be bananas. How are you
going to feed your family? I'm telling you, But y'all,
(29:15):
I don't know if people thought that long term. They
believed the foolishness that he was shoveling down their throat, Bobby,
and they fell for it, hook line and sinker, and
some would threat some was just being threatened. But like
for the Latinos and for even for the black people
who voted for him, and even for the poor whites
in Virginia whose parents were on oxygen and on installin,
(29:37):
and well, he's not gonna you guys are really filling
the country right now. I don't want to say, like,
like Kamala Harris said the other day, I told you so,
and she fell out laughing, but she did tell you.
She did.
Speaker 4 (29:49):
They just didn't believe it. They didn't think it would
hit them.
Speaker 5 (29:53):
We have federal employees that are Republican who really believed
it wouldn't come down, and it wouldn't.
Speaker 4 (29:59):
He didn't. Here's the saying.
Speaker 5 (30:00):
And I'm going to give President Trump credit. He told
you exactly what he was going to do.
Speaker 4 (30:06):
He didn't lie that.
Speaker 5 (30:08):
The only thing he lied about was were more of
the positive things like he was going to bring He
was going to get rid of the wars on day one.
That's not doable. You know, you can't do that. He
was going to bring down prices. That's foolish because it's
a global market. If people you know that that are
sending stuff from India, so we can you know ingredients ober,
unless their product goes down, our product's not going to
(30:29):
go down.
Speaker 4 (30:30):
But he didn't. He didn't deliver on any of that.
But he told you all the other miserable stuff he
was going to do, and he's doing it. And you
know what, does Maya Angelo saying you should have believed him.
Speaker 6 (30:43):
So let's break down the terroifs again, Bobby, because I
think people were misunderstood standing that. You guys thought that
the terror price raises, what's going to happen to the
to the people who were sending him over. He's going
to affect you, the consoler that buy. It's the tacks,
your eyeglasses, your your some of your prescription medication, uh,
(31:09):
things that you rely on day to day that you
probably don't even think about you see that made in China,
made in China, you'd be thinking that's cheap. That made
in China about to be real expensive. It's about to
be real expensive to see that made in China on
your ship.
Speaker 5 (31:23):
And you just said something that was so important that
I don't think then people think of you said medications.
Do you know where a ton of our medications come from?
Speaker 4 (31:32):
Canada?
Speaker 6 (31:33):
Canada? Exactly exactly.
Speaker 5 (31:35):
So now you're if you were having a tough time. No,
So there are things that are great. If there are
things that we actually have here, we should always My
father came from He was a teamster, and so we
always believed that if it was made in America, if
we could buy it here and the product was was
just as good, and usually it was better, and it
(31:56):
was affordable within you know, all percentage, we always bought here.
Speaker 4 (32:01):
And so that is true.
Speaker 5 (32:03):
We still want to do that, but but there are
some things we just can't. We just talked about iPhones.
You just can't get here, and by the time they
get it, they get it up and running, and even
when they do, it's going to be so much more expensive.
It doesn't make sense to have it here. We've just
it's a tariffs are attacks people. I don't know what
they think it is. It's a tax to the consumer.
(32:24):
The consumer is the person who purchases it to make
our products, and it's going to be passed on to
the end user US. So yeah, it's we're in trouble
with the tariffs.
Speaker 6 (32:34):
They don't.
Speaker 5 (32:35):
I'm hoping, just like he kept postponing them in the beginning,
I'm hoping that he's seeing that he's plumbing and it's
not just our dow everybody. This is the world, you know,
the economy is all over the place for the entire world.
People are going to resent us like you can't believe,
because we're effing up there their economies as well.
Speaker 4 (32:54):
But I'm hoping that he after I'm going to give
them a week, he pulls this crap down before too
much damage is done.
Speaker 6 (33:02):
And then when you said, Bobby, you used to do
I love what you said. You traveled, but you held
your high hell high as an American in foreign countries.
That is almost possibly scary to do now because foreigners
blame Americans right now, not for the situation they're in,
but for putting Trump in office. Again. He didn't he
(33:25):
was not born into this. He wasn't born royal. We
elected this fool to be in office who said to
us publicly, I can shoot somebody in middle of Central
Park and get away with it years ago and didn't
say it as a joke and got away with it.
Who said that if I ever run, I'm going to
run as a Republican because they're the dumbest voters ever.
Speaker 5 (33:49):
Yeah no, and he did, and yeah, absolutely, And it's
it's the people know one off, and they understand it's
not just that people vote because everybody thinks our country,
they're like, well, more people voted, yes, the people who
voted fifty two voted for them. It's more people are
angry about the ninety million that stayed home why And
(34:09):
that's what allowed him to get in. So in other
countries are well aware of it.
Speaker 7 (34:14):
I wanted to have many of that ninety I wanted
to have many of that ninety million as out of
these protests right now, when all you had to do
is go vote, vote, then you would have to be
out in the rain and the cold.
Speaker 6 (34:24):
Protesting because of you would have just voted correctly. You know,
even though even though allegedly these swing state machines, got
got a jar, get fixed to get tinkered with. But
had you came out in the droves with the popular vote,
you wouldn't be in this situation you are now. But
you wanted to sit back and be like, Oh, it
(34:45):
doesn't matter me, it's not going to affect me. It's
affecting the shit out of you right now.
Speaker 4 (34:49):
It's going to affect all of us.
Speaker 5 (34:51):
I think the other thing that I definitely want us
to mention today is we had the special elections in
both Florida as well as Wisconsin. In Florida, they had
two seats, two congressional seats up. Now I didn't think
that I didn't think that we would flip those seats,
but I wanted to see what the margins will be.
And let me tell you, they're saying the margins were
(35:13):
way closer than than the GOP that that was helping
to run the seats in Florida ever anticipated. And then,
as we know, there was a Supreme Court seat up
in Wisconsin and that seat did flip to a Democrat.
And that one, that one was a that's a high
(35:33):
stake seat because uh Tesla has a uh A case.
That's it that's in in Wisconsin. So I am sure
that the cabinet, uh, that this administration wanted to flip
that seat, but they didn't.
Speaker 4 (35:47):
People.
Speaker 5 (35:48):
People are having enough. So UH, we've got to get
a message though people. If we want to flip every
other seat that's coming our way or you know the
bulk of them and in it's a little over a
year and a half, a year and nine months, then
we better get at it.
Speaker 6 (36:04):
And the protests are large, Lady, The hands off protests
all over the country are magnanimous. They are huge. This
is people crying out in pain and anguish and despair
and hurt. And I don't know what else to do
because you didn't do it when you were supposed to
do first, Lady Michelle Obama said do something. I wish
(36:26):
we had done something November fourth. Unfortunately we didn't. But
now we are flipping this I'm telling you about. The
telltale sign was just what you said when Wisconsin flipped.
So the place in Pennsylvania, Pennsylvania, Yeah, they flipped. But
the dal Jones because this is for people who are
invest in in UH and and who have big investments
(36:48):
that are losing their money. It's quick for one case,
gone money, just that you knew that you had for
a lifetime to fall back on gone. This is what
is going to make people say, I'm not doing this shit.
He got to go. They're going to I think he's
going to get ousted. I don't know how, but I
think they're going.
Speaker 4 (37:09):
To oust him in jobs forget. So you're you are right.
People have who had a lifetime. But there are a
lot of federal employees. We have had the highest.
Speaker 5 (37:18):
Unemployment that we've had and I think they said six
years other thay, no, not six since COVID, since the
beginning COVID, So that's going to be five years. And
it's in what with the bulk of the positions federal
These are people that work their entire lives waiting for
their pension, making less money, and and to the way
(37:38):
that they're doing it. It's not that what they're doing
is wrong. Every single administration has said that going to
get rid of fraud and abuse, and but it's so
complicated that people it kind of dies on the vine.
You know, a little bit gets done, but not a
ton of it. But you don't go in and literally
eviscerate whole whole departments without seeing exactly and then having
(38:00):
to put people back in.
Speaker 4 (38:02):
RFK just did that.
Speaker 5 (38:03):
They let they let oh bunch of people up, and
now he's saying, well, some of those people are going
to come back because we didn't realize what programs they ran,
and those programs said.
Speaker 4 (38:11):
How about this do it for sasshole, Look and see
what they actually do.
Speaker 5 (38:16):
You might not be might not know it, but get
one of your directors who can tell you what each
one of those jobs does, and then figure it out
that's what's supposed to happen, and audit lame. It might
have taken the full four years to even get to
a point where you could have gotten some of these
get rid of some of these positions, but it would
have been just just and done well, rather than just
go in and then cut it all and and not
(38:37):
let these people easily get unemployment, make it so that
it looks like they were they were let go for cause,
and they weren't let go for cause at all, other
than a.
Speaker 4 (38:46):
Fool is doing it.
Speaker 5 (38:50):
Did you see that the correspondence Diinner, I love the
correspondence Stinner that they have they've gotten rid of the comedian.
Speaker 6 (38:59):
I saw that Bobby and people saying, Oh, they got
rid of her cause she's black. I'm like that. That
may have been a very tiny percentage of it. But
she said something that the Orange Man was not pleased with,
and they went back to research their history and that's
why they got rid of her. I personally thought they
were going to use Hackler or Heckley, whatever his name was,
the guy who did the speech, the comedian that he
(39:21):
used at the New York rally. I thought he was
the shoe in for that job and that petition. Anyway,
after how disgrupted he was at the rally, but it
caused so much ruckus and it seemed to have we
thought it was going to hurt his campaign. It seemed
to have helped it. But yeah, I saw that they
got her. I think she found out too. I think
she fucked around and found out too.
Speaker 5 (39:41):
Yeah she Well, it's it's they loved their like little
kids and sour grapes, do you know, like it just
it's the Other thing that I thought was shocking this
week was.
Speaker 4 (39:52):
Adams.
Speaker 5 (39:53):
Adams charges have been dropped the un York mayor and
he is not running as a Democrat at longer. He's
now going to run as an independent, and I thought, wow,
that's quite interesting. I see for some reason, I think
Foremost is going to end up with that seat, and
I think he'll do a hell of a job. To
be quite honest with you, Adam's he's too slippery for me.
(40:16):
So I saw that picture with you with him, and
he's a very little guy.
Speaker 4 (40:19):
He didn't even look like he came up to your shoulder.
Speaker 6 (40:22):
He came to my nipple. That works for me. But
he was a very pleasant man, and I knew he
was under a lot of fire for New York. New
York was furious with him for some of the antics
that they said that he pulled. I don't know all
the details of it, but he was kind to me
when I met him, and I knew he was face
in prison time. He was facing jail time. So when
(40:44):
Trump got appointed an office, he just jumped ship like
most people do when they don't want to go to jail.
I don't follow him for that, because sometimes you have
to save your own ass. But I'm not a New Yorker.
I can't tell you how new Yorker is steel because
New Yorkers don't hold shit back how they feel. They
tell you right there spot on. You ain't got to
wait for it. It's coming right there, like a training
(41:05):
with no breaks. So he jumped shifted so for Trump
to save his ass. So now he's running as an independent.
You have to ask yourself how many how many candidates
or how many people officials have done that exact same thing.
I know I'm in hot water. I know I'm in
trouble under the Democratic Party. So I'll jump ship to
go up under Trump because he'll save me.
Speaker 4 (41:26):
He flips so that he could run.
Speaker 5 (41:28):
So and his kids infected one of the kids for
the first for the first time his first term. Couldn't
vote for him because they forgot to. It was one
of the boys. They forgot to check their box. They
forgot to go in and change from Democrats too.
Speaker 6 (41:43):
Don't do that. They didn't forget you just said it
was one of his sons. They ain't forget you already know.
You already know the fruit. The fruit don't fall far
from the tree. But with Mayor Adams, you know, I
don't know all that deliver with him. But he was
kind to me when I met him in Chicago, saying
much and when I was at the DNC. But Bobby,
(42:04):
you know this has been a trying week, ladyes Jim,
I know this is not my regular perky laugh a learned,
but we were glad to be able to transfer the
information to you guys. We are a little delayed this
week because it's just been a week for me. Aaron
was traveling, I was dealing with last Bobby is my girl.

is hiring that needs a great research analyst, somebody that

us how you feel as Americans. Because no matter what
we look like, no matter who we pray to you,
no matter how we spend our money, we steal all Americas.
We got to live in this shit together and right
now we're living in some shit. He called the other
countries third world country shitholds. He has turned us single
(43:12):
handedly or he's trying to into a shithold and as
American citizens were not fucking having it. So to all
the people out there in the world that are protesting
for the hands off protests all over the country, well done.
Yes we make We are thanking you. You are making
America what America's supposed to be because that slogan they
(43:34):

by you here are laugh alarone. We are not trying

trying to get you to use your mind, because why Bobby.
Speaker 4 (44:16):
As a mind and a vote are a terrible thing
to waste.
Speaker 6 (44:19):
So Dad Davin, don't use your vote and get out

be out there, You wouldn't be out there in the
cold and the rain. Right now, good god, Okay, ladies, jum,
