Speaker 1 (00:11):
Good morning, peeps, and welcome to WOKF Daily with me
your girl, Danielle Moody recording from the home bunker, Folks.
I'm recording this woke Wednesday, the day after the Supreme
Court decided that we no longer have democracy in this
country and that a president is in fact a king.

(00:32):
And I can tell you I'm going to be extraordinarily
honest and vulnerable. I have not slept, I'm not feeling well.
I'm actually feeling very under the weather at the moment, emotionally, physically, spiritually,
just down. And the reality is that I have spent

(00:52):
many years on WOKF. The reason WOKF started was because
of twenty sixteen, and after Donald Trump won the election
six months later, I started WOKF on Serious XM and
four years now, years I have been talking about the

(01:18):
existential threat that Donald Trump MAGA has posed on our democracy.
I have been screaming into avoid to try and wake
as many people up, connect as many people to their
consciousness and their power so that we wouldn't make it

(01:41):
to the point where we are now, which is that
a six to three court stacked with Republicans who have
all pledged their allegiance to white supremacy, have decided that
they're done with democracy and they're done with this project.

(02:02):
It didn't matter that Donald Trump is a serial criminal.
It doesn't matter that Donald Trump is a rapist. It
doesn't matter that he is a fraudster or a grifter.
It doesn't matter that he is a misogynist, that he's
an open racist, that he is an alzamophobe, that he
is a homophobe, a transphobe. It doesn't matter because Donald

(02:24):
Trump is a useful tool for white supremacy and patriarchy
and for those who have fishtistic dreams of ruling under
a theocracy under white Christian nationalism. Justice Alito, as you

(02:45):
all know, was caught on tape saying that this is
a Christian country and that some people just can't live
shoulder to shoulder with others. This has been a plan, folks,
in the making, for decades, not just a handful of years.

(03:06):
And while I would love to waste time lamenting about
what it is that Democrats should have done could have
done when they had the kind of power that they
did for two years under Obama, that they could have
expanded the courts, that they could have solidified our rights
that they could have been keeping an eye on how

(03:31):
this party was moving and understanding that things like precedent
don't matter. But what matters is actually understanding history. And
so we are here at a moment where, folks, I
am not going to lie to you. I am absolutely terrified,

(03:56):
and if you are terrified as well, it is with
good reason, because we have roughly six months to four
years to preserve our democracy. What do I mean by that?
That's what my sister said to me the other day.
Six months until inauguration, and if, by some grace of God,

(04:23):
by some miracle, Joe Biden is able to squeak out
another win, that gives us four years because regardless, the
Supreme Court has spoken, the Wizard of Oz has been revealed,
and they do not want democracy anymore. It doesn't serve

(04:50):
their interests. And so whenever, if it is in six
months or four years from now, when a Republican takes office,
all bets are off. So the question many of us
have woken up today and are asking ourselves, then, now,

(05:12):
what what do we do? And I'll tell you what
I am planning on doing. What I am doing, I
am going to continue to tell people to vote. I'm
going to continue to tell people to organize. I'm going
to tell people to get out into the fucking streets
in the way that people have done in France and
the way they've done in Iran, in the way that
they've done it bravely in Russia, knowing that many of

(05:34):
them would be incarcerated and never see freedom ever again.
There are protesters right now that we're protesting in Iran
that are going to be getting the death penalty. This
is it. For those that have thought that this was hyperbole.
For those of us that new but still find ourselves

(05:59):
in a place of I need you to both be
shocked and moving at the same time. All of my listeners,
you need an exit strategy. I am not going to
play games with you. If you want to stay and fight,
I say go with God and thank you. But I

(06:23):
will not be on the front lines here. That is
not my purpose. That is not what I have planned
to do. And whatever steps that you need to put
together in order to get you, your families, your friends
to safety, and safety is relative, but it definitely is

(06:48):
not inside of this country. Do it. Start to make
the phone calls, start to organize, yourselves, because I am
telling you, if and when down Trump wins the election,
the first one hundred days are going to be the bloodiest,

(07:08):
the most outrageous, utterly indefensible one hundred days this country
has ever seen. Project twenty twenty five is already underway.
The presidency is just the last piece of the puzzle.
The most important piece was a Supreme Court. Were the

(07:33):
federal courts, which Mitch McConnell and Donald Trump successfully stole.
When and if Donald Trump becomes president of the United States,
Project twenty twenty five takes hold on day one. I
think that it might have been maybe the day after

(07:56):
his first term that he instituted the muzzle ban. Maybe
maybe it was the week they are coming for all
of the agencies. They are zeroing out Social Security, they
are getting rid of Medicare, they are getting rid of
public education. They are shutting down the EPA, They are

(08:17):
weaponizing the Department of Justice, and they will start rounding
people up. Want to tell you something that started doing
a little research because I said, you know, how much
time do we really have? How long did it take Hitler?
And I was praying to God that it was, you know,

(08:39):
like a year or so to begin putting together the
concentration camps and in strategy to kill six million Jews
and also millions of other people, because that's the thing
that we don't really have numbers on. Six million Jews,
give or take probably more, and millions of other people, professors, doctors, students.

(09:10):
Hitler was duly elected in January of nineteen thirty three.
The first concentration camp was set up and ready to
rock in March of nineteen thirty three, two months. Two months,

(09:37):
and the first camp in Germany, which is where political
enemies were sent enemies of the state. There will be
no trials because there won't need to be. Everything atrocious
that has kept you up at night, that has popped

(09:58):
you out of a good night's sleep with a cold sweat,
think about that and then make it worse. They're not
playing games, and there are no guardrails because rules are
for everyone else, not for them. Donald Trump famously told

(10:21):
white supremacist to stand back and stand by. All he
needs to tell them is ready set go. Oh well,
those folks aren't protected by presidential immunity. They don't need
to be. They're the president's private militia. So if they
start doing what they did in the nineteen fifties, sixties, earlier,

(10:45):
nineteen twenties, earlier, eighteen hundreds. If they start doing what
has been in the DNA of this country, which is
amassing crazed white mobs to go into black and brown
and queer areas and just start shooting in the way

(11:08):
that Kyle Rittenhouse did. They're not going to jail. They're not.
If there is any type of quote unquote arrest, they'll
be released, they'll be pardoned, They'll be fine. And they
know it. This is the starkest episode that I've ever
done because I'm not going to raw, rah rah and lie,

(11:34):
because I think that it is about time that people
have come to Jesus, and that is exactly what that
Supreme Court decision was. I will be honest that I
did not think that they would give Donald Trump everything
that he wanted. In more, I thought it would be
a mixed bag, still fucking shitty, but not absolute. So

(11:57):
we know that there is no rule of law that
Donald Trump must abide by. He is completely and totally covered.
So knowing that it's time that people act now, am

(12:17):
I calling for a national boycott? Hell fucking yes, am
I calling for people to stop working and head into
the streets. Apps fucking lutely, am I calling for marches
and protests in every fucking state of this country? Yeah,
I am. But I also know it's a little too little,
too late. We can buy ourselves time, absolutely by re

(12:42):
electing Joe Biden, and I want us to do that
and hold out hope that a second Biden administration that
is not concerned with re election will do what is
necessary in order to protect our democracy moving forward, and
not give a fuck about his legacy or give a
fuck about anything, because guess what, he would have one

(13:03):
hundred percent immunity as well, which is like, go forth
and do what needs to be done to protect the
rest of us, whatever that means. So this is where
we are. This is where we find ourselves because America
didn't want to vote for a woman but her emails,

(13:25):
because they didn't want to heed the stark warnings that
Hillary Clinton was telling us in twenty sixteen. She knew then,
like I knew then, that Donald Trump was an existential
threat to our democracy, that the next president of the
United States in twenty sixteen was going to have the
opportunity to control the court and control our future. And

(13:47):
that's exactly where we are. We're not getting abortion back,
we're not getting affirmative action back, we're not getting voting
rights back. If anything, this Supreme Court is just getting
warmed up. One of the things that I was thinking
about too in Project twenty twenty five, or actually in
the right wing blogisphere, not only is it no fault

(14:07):
divorce and getting rid of that, it is also birthright
citizenship and getting rid of that. It is also drastically
changing the census to eliminate the power of any people
that are not white people. If you are wondering what
it is like to live inside of a crumbling democracy,
this is it. And so the other thing that I

(14:30):
posted was that in nineteen thirty three, you know, the
courts in Germany instituted the Enabling Act which enabled Hitler
to have immunity to do whatever the fuck it is
that he wanted. This immunity decision was our enabling Act.

(14:51):
No good, no good could possibly come from it, because
it never has not in Germany, not in South ead Africa,
not in Hungary, not in Russia, not in Iran, not
in any country that ever had some semblance of democracy

(15:14):
or has just always had authoritarianism. This was it. I
urge all of you to take this with the level
and sense of seriousness that it requires. This isn't like
the ha ha I'm going to go to Canada and

(15:35):
then like, oh, but we all write it out. No,
that's not this time. It truly is not this time.
If there is anything that I've been able to impart
on you in all of these years, if you've been
listening to me from the beginning, this is not that time.
The fences are down, all bets are off. So this moment,

(16:00):
dear friends, it is about what you can do in
these coming months to get yourself organized then together and
that of your friends and your family. I am going
to continue to be telling you this until I am
officially off MIC, which is coming, and I just want

(16:20):
to be very clear about that. Free press is going
to be the first thing that goes because anyone that
is not perpetuating the talking points of MAGA is going
to be labeled as an enemy of the state. And
it starts with what exactly what it is net Nyahu

(16:41):
did in Gaza to Al Jazeera. They go in, they
collect your shit, they arrest the people, they shut you down.
It won't be a shadow ban like that what happens
with the algorithms on social media. No, it'll be an
all out ban. So I'm going to use my time

(17:03):
with you all wisely and thoughtfully. As I receive information,
I will share that information as I understand. Moment by moment,
I will share moment by moment. I encourage you all
to follow me on social media, which is where I've
started to go live again on Instagram, probably will continue

(17:25):
to do so. So follow me at D two cents,
d E T woc E nts. Continue to you know,
sign up for the newsletter that comes out twice a month.
The third edition just came out. You can do that
at Daniellemoody dot com because I'm going to be using
that newsletter as well as another tool. So sign up there.

(17:47):
Tell friends, family to sign up there. We will be
in it together for as long as we can be.
But I need all of you to start your preparations.
It's not a game anymore. The moment has arrived. That
is it for me today. Dear friends on Woke af

(18:09):
as always, Power to the people and to all the people. Power,
get woke and stay woke as fuck.
