0:45
Angeli is out today? Was so Cholamine.
0:47
Piece to the Planet is Tuesday. Yes,
0:51
it's Tuesday, Yes it is. What's happening?
0:54
Hey, everything is great now. Yesterday
0:57
we were out in DC, Angeli and I
0:59
shout the pet see. They were doing
1:01
a gala. It was called Historically Better where
1:03
they recognized and acknowledge people that are
1:06
doing well that graduated from HBCU.
1:08
So it was a bunch of people nominated. Was hosted
1:10
by Terrence j Uh, myself,
1:14
Angela Ye and the Tory. Uh.
1:16
And they just acknowledged, you know, different
1:18
people, whether they were ministers, uh, basketball
1:21
players. Uh. There was
1:23
a brother that was in the FBI. Uh.
1:26
There was a bunch of people that would acknowledge. Last
1:28
night, so it was just a dope galla representing African
1:31
American black people for Black
1:35
History moth. Black people,
1:37
African American or black
1:39
people and whatever you whatever you like to call them, but
1:41
for Black History Moth. It was just pretty dope
1:43
to see so many black people in the room looking
1:46
so nice and being so accomplishment.
1:48
I mean, that makes sense that that's not a crazy thing to
1:50
say African American black people, because you
1:52
have European black people, you have
1:54
Caribbean black people, you have you know, it
1:58
was black people in the build. I don't know where they were from. Know
2:00
it's Caribbean, African American, it was black people. It
2:03
was people, and it was It
2:05
was just dope to see so many accomplished black
2:08
people in the room last night and just having a great
2:10
time to shout to Pepsi. On the
2:12
way back, I think Angela Ye's
2:14
tire blew out. So her tire blew
2:16
out, so she had to pull over
2:18
in the side of the road and uh call a toe
2:21
truck and she had to take a uber home. So that is
2:23
the reason why she is not in to date.
2:25
But she is okay. I caused a little
2:27
ft up, but she is fine, Okay.
2:30
Right now. Did you see the Kobe memorial?
2:33
Did you watch that? Um? I did it to myself.
2:35
I didn't want to. I was trying to avoid it. I was
2:37
trying to tell myself, I'm
2:39
not gonna watch this. I don't feel like being sad
2:41
on this Monday afternoon. But I said,
2:43
you know what, it's Kobe Bryant's
2:46
memorial, is Gigi's memorial. I'm gonna
2:48
watch. So I did. How many times? Did you cry?
2:51
Um? I teared
2:53
up? You know what I teared up about. I teared up about the fact
2:55
that because because the perspective,
2:57
I was trying to figure out why things like this hits so different
3:00
number, so many different aspects of the fact that he
3:02
was a father doing his normal routine
3:05
with his daughter for one of her extracurrical
3:07
activities basketball, and you know
3:09
it can just happen just that correct.
3:12
But I was thinking about the fact that, um,
3:14
we're just not in control. I think a lot
3:16
of times your ego kicks in and situations like that and
3:18
says, oh, I gotta get control, I gotta control, I gotta get control.
3:20
You're not in control, Like that's all that
3:23
situation shows you. You're never truly
3:26
in control. Yeah, I tell a lot. I watched
3:28
it on the way down to DC, and
3:30
when she said, uh, you know, God
3:33
took Gig and Kobe
3:36
away because she knew that g couldn't be on
3:38
the stars without Kobe, I just started balling.
3:40
Yeah, my dinner taleges doctor doctor
3:43
Nay saying that we was having a conversation when
3:45
it first happened, and she said the same thing. She was like, you know, their
3:47
spirits have always been linked, the spiritual linked,
3:50
you know, long before they got here, and their spirits
3:52
will be linked long after their physical bodies
3:54
are gone. And she said the same thing, like, she was like, they
3:57
both had to go together because their spirits
3:59
are so intertwined, connected one one couldn't
4:01
live without the other on this on this planet. And I was
4:03
like, yeah, yeah, yeah,
4:05
man, it just it just shows you that you're just not
4:08
in control. You're just never in control.
4:10
And I think I think that's what causes a lot
4:13
of anxiety, right, yeah, because we're
4:15
just always trying to control the future,
4:18
trying to control certain outcomes, and you just can't. Nothing
4:20
can be control. We've got to enjoy the moment, that's
4:22
right. Yeah. Man, Well we'll give you more and
4:24
give you some updates and what you
4:26
know, what happened in the memorial and all that other
4:28
stuff when we come back in front page News. But also
4:31
AOC will be joining us this morning. Alexandria
4:34
Corti Cortez, that's
4:37
the seed. There's a oh Ocasio
4:40
Cortez. That's why I call her AOC. Right this, AOC
4:42
will be joining us this morning. AOC will be here this morning.
4:45
That's right to talk about all everything that's going on
4:47
in our current world today. That's
4:49
right. So we'll kick it with her in a little bit and in front page
4:51
News. So we'll tell you about the memorial yesterday, Kobe
4:53
Bryant's memorial and Harvey Weinstein. He
4:56
should be in rikers right now, jail. We'll tell you about
4:58
that, so don't move. It's to breakfast club morning morning.
5:01
Everybody is DJ Envy Angela
5:03
Yee, Charlemagne the guy. We are to breakfast Club.
5:05
Let's getting some front page news. So
5:08
now van Es Lebrian she filed a wrong
5:11
filled death lawsuit against the helicopter
5:13
company, claiming the aircraft should have never been placed
5:15
in the peril it was in before that accident.
5:18
Uh, they're not saying, you know, aunt of money
5:21
that she wants, but she is sewing and she'll
5:23
probably win. I can't see her not winning. Yeah,
5:26
especially if the guy wasn't supposed to take off
5:28
and took off anyway and didn't have clearance
5:30
and took off anyway. I
5:33
don't know, man, and he decided in twenty
5:35
fifteen for doing the same thing. So I can't.
5:37
Yeah, situations like that, you know, I mean,
5:39
I hope she wins, but it's just the sad part
5:42
about it. You know, you win, but it doesn't bring
5:44
you people back, you know what I mean. So
5:46
if it was somebody else's negligence that caused
5:48
your people to the parish,
5:50
I don't I don't know if
5:53
that does anything for you. Just lawsuits,
5:56
I mean not at all. That. Also,
5:58
yesterday was the memorial at the Staples Center.
6:01
Twenty two thousand people were in attendance,
6:03
and Beyonce she's saying, Halo.
6:06
Here's a snippet of that all
6:33
right now. Vanessa Bryant, she
6:36
spoke yesterday, which I'm sure was probably
6:38
one of the hardest things she had ever had to do, just to
6:40
speak to people and talk to people
6:42
about her husband and daughter. Yeah, I was thinking about
6:44
that yesterday. I was thinking about the fact that the
6:47
best thing that probably happened was they had a memorial
6:49
like a month later, just so everybody could gather itself
6:51
a little bit more, because I don't think you could do that a month ago. Nah,
6:53
Well, let's listen. God knew they
6:56
couldn't be on this earth without each other. Yeah,
7:00
to bring them homes happen together, Babe,
7:04
you take care of our chie Chee and
7:06
I got nanny Baby and Cocoa. We're
7:09
still the best team. We
7:13
love and miss you, Booboo and chi chie Lord
7:15
Mercy, both rest in peace
7:18
and have fun in heaven until
7:20
we meet again one day. We love
7:22
you both and miss you forever
7:25
and always. Mommy Lord
7:28
Mercy, I turned the value down right, that can listen to that
7:30
again. I'll just start crying. Yeah, it's just the impermanent,
7:32
impermanence of of of life.
7:34
Right, It's just like we just not in
7:37
control. And then when you hit when you hear stories
7:39
like that, immediately's like okay, let's tighten let's tighten
7:41
up. Let's you know, gotta get gotta get in control,
7:43
gotta get in control. That's like there's
7:45
no control baby. When it's when it's your
7:48
time, is your time. You had to turn the value down because it's
7:50
not I'd be tearing the pire now. Shaquille
7:52
O'Neil he spoke about the day he uh that
7:55
Kobe gained his respect, The day Kobe
7:57
gain respects. The guys
7:59
were landing, said Shaq, Kobe's
8:01
not passing the ball, said I'll talk to him. I
8:04
said, Kobe, there's no I
8:06
team And Kobe said, I know,
8:08
but there's in me and that mother. You goddam
8:13
went back and to Rick and Uh and
8:15
Big Shop. Boba said, just get the rebound. He's
8:17
not passion for
8:20
Kobe Bryant, damn and no I, but it
8:22
doesn't add me and that mother. That's right, God damn.
8:24
It followed the hot hand. All right, stop complaining.

8:31
bro. Kobe was my dear friend.
8:33
He was like a little brother. The questions

8:39

thirty three o'clock in the morning,
8:50
talking about post up
8:52
moves, footwork and
8:54
sometimes the triangle.
8:58
At first it was an aggravation,
9:02
but then it turned into a
9:04
certain passion, and he also
9:06
talked about himself crying. I
9:08
don't have to look at another crime meme. I
9:13
told my wife I wasn't gonna do this because I didn't
9:15
want to see that for the next three or four years. Why

9:40
just sitting there thinking like he about to bring the Michael
9:42
Jordan crying mean back, just about looking like that on that
9:44
goddamn state. And he don't even think about wiping
9:47

Who's this Hi? This is Renee
15:18
Rene. Good morning, Good morning. UM.
15:20
I just want to get off my chest. I'm a teacher. UM,
15:23
I live in Queens. I've travel out to bushwar
15:25
Breaklans. Um. I'd need
15:28
these parents to know how dirty
15:30
these schools are. I'm dealing
15:32
with an infestation of roaches,
15:35
water, mugs, rats,
15:38
and parents just have no idea
15:40
of what's happening with their
15:42
kids in these schools. Like this is why children
15:44
are always so sick. Um, teachers
15:47
don't sick. We're calling out all the time
15:50
and you I've tried to contact
15:52
the Board of Health and they don't reach back
15:55
out. So I just want to encourage
15:57
parents to go and look
16:00
after they children. Who asked about how they're
16:02
community. Why
16:05
don't we do this? Why don't we bleep out your name and you
16:07
tell us what school of this so we can see that school
16:09
has roaches and rats and all types of things. You
16:12
know what, I'm not gonna do that. I'd
16:15
rather just you know, he I'd
16:18
rather just have parents reach out to
16:20
their own school because there is happening everywhere
16:23
New York City. You know why, you
16:25
know why I really respect you because
16:28
you know the difference between a water bug and a roach. A
16:31
lot of people don't know the difference. I'm saying. A lot of people
16:33
confuse water bugs roaches differ,
16:35
so there is a huge difference. As as a man
16:37
who grew up with roaches, I'm glad that you know
16:39
the difference. Okay, well you have a good more
16:42
than moment, but you too,
16:44
Thank you, thank you so much, goodness
16:46
gracious. Hello. Who's this? Yeah? Yeff,

16:58
Global at ORG. We warn an oil concession.
17:00
It's Black History months and we were
17:03
I saw a four hundred year in this side of
17:05
the pond, and we want
17:07
a oil concession for gas
17:09
and and and gasoline. And there's nobody
17:11
in our community we could approach to have a sensible
17:14
conversation about this concession.
17:17
It's for the community for us to
17:19
do something about it. Is this it's our way

19:28

19:48
right, get it off your chest. Eight hundred and five
19:50
eight five one on five one. If you need to vent, you can
19:52
hit us up at any time. Now when we come
19:54
back. We got the rum as Angelie is out, so
19:56
I hold it down now. Could
19:58
it be possible that this guy lost to fight because
20:01
he was wearing a forty pound costume.
20:03
Let's not report that story. It's still
20:05
black history. Mouth that hurt my feelings yesterday. I can't
20:08
believe that was I don't believe he said that. Could that
20:10
be the reason he lost to fight. We'll talk about it
20:12
when we come back. Don't move. It's the breakfast club
20:15
the morning. It's about the
20:25
breakfast club. So now,
20:27
Deontay Wild allegedly claims that we're
20:30
in that forty pound costume before his
20:32
fight with Tyson Fury. I left
20:34
his legs dead and that is one of the reasons
20:37
why he lost allegedly, that's what they're saying.
20:39
Where's the audio. There's no audio. Whe's the
20:41
video. They're saying it will be coming out a full
20:43
interview. I believe they said by the end of this week. I
20:45
don't I don't feel like my guy said that. I don't believe
20:48
that King Deante Wider would come with a
20:50
lame ass excuse like that. Um, I
20:52
just don't believe he said that. I'm gonna tay something else is
20:55
gonna be back, y'all keep playing with y'all
20:57
want to. I see all the memes and I understand the energy
20:59
of shoot media. That's the way it is when you're taking
21:02
But Deondy Wild will be back, that's right. I think
21:04
the trilogy is going to happen. I think he gets a
21:06
chance to exercise that clause and he has thirty
21:08
days to do that. He did he didn't exercise
21:11
it. Yeah, I don't think he should have done that. I think
21:13
that he should have fought fought maybe maybe
21:16
maybe one or two more fights like fight Ruise, maybe
21:18
somebody else, and then fight Tyson
21:20
Fury, maybe like late twenty twenty one.
21:23
Sometimes he may want that back. You know, it's like somebody
21:25
punches you, you want to punch them back. You don't want to wait, you
21:27
want that right away. I heard yesterday he fired his
21:29
trainer. Yeah, that's allegedly till he fired his trainer,
21:31
that parted ways. So I mean, listen, he's
21:34
gonna need a whole new game, playing a whole
21:36
new technique to go up against Tyson
21:39
Fury. And that's the trainer that allegedly
21:41
through well through in the towel in the seventh round, the trainer
21:43
that saved his life, training that probably saved his career.
21:46
So you know, but still I still think he needs
21:48
to bring somebody else in just to teach him
21:50
a different technique. He can't just rely on that power
21:52
punch all the time. But Deontay Walter will be back,
21:54
trust and believe that. I always wondered, like when when
21:56
those boxes do they ever get a chance to talk to like Mike
21:59
Tyson and talk to Tyson about, you know, different
22:02
things that he did, or if he said, you know, let
22:04
me talk to Floyd about different moves that he would use.
22:06
You know, do do boxes do that? Because you see it all
22:08
the time when NBA players and football players was
22:11
here on Breakfast Club, I do. I don't know
22:13
if he said that him and Lenny Cluis were supposed
22:15
to talk a train together. Was it Lenny Clus?
22:17
I don't remember, but I'm sure he'd do now.
22:20
Also, Layla Ali, it looks
22:22
like a super fight. It's about to happen. It might
22:24
be a little too late in my opinion,
22:27
but when Leyla Ali was on the Breakfast Club,
22:29
this is what she said, when we never
22:31
went back in the ring and just just just for fun money,
22:33
right, Layla there still
22:37
training, I stay
22:39
training, but you know I don't. I don't think there's anyone
22:41
there for me right now that would actually give
22:43
me a good challenge. Okay, Well,
22:46
Clarissa shild she was on the Breakfast Club
22:48
and she wants all the smoke. I've
22:50
never disrespected Layla Ali when it like
22:52
comes to her boxing, she paved the way.
22:55
So when I heard her say that, I'm like, so
22:57
what she's saying, like I don't know how to box or something. If
22:59
you come retirement, I smoke you. But
23:02
do I want to fight a forty one or forty year
23:04
old Layla Ali? No? I
23:06
want to actually her embrace me, I embrace
23:09
her, and we build women's boxing to the
23:11
place where it's supposed to be at. No, we
23:13
want to see a fight. Now. Layla Ali was on
23:15
ESPN and this is what she's saying.
23:18
Now. Have I been sitting around thinking
23:20
about boxing. No, But lately there's
23:22
been a little chatter and yes,
23:28
which is amazing and I love
23:31
that because we want to see women
23:33
continue to grow and inspire other people.
23:35
Right, and people are asking me would you come back?
23:37
Well, I have to be inspired inspiring
23:40
opponent. Of course. Absolutely. When
23:43
it's personal that starts a fire,
23:46
and when the money's right and it
23:48
makes sense, then why not. I'm about
23:50
all this. So it looks like this fight might
23:52
happen. I'm about all this. I don't know if it's
23:55
the Zone or ESPN or whoever. Somebody
23:57
need to cut that check and get Layla Ali
24:00
versus Shields in the ring. Uh, veteran
24:03
versus versus. I don't want to call Clarissa a movie,
24:05
but O G generation versus new
24:07
generation. I would like to see you know what? You want to
24:09
see that dope? Yes, because she's she's out
24:11
of a prime. How do you know beat
24:15
your ass right now again, I'm not a boxing Batleman,
24:17
dje probably
24:21
can beat you, right
24:25
right whatever. Listen, Lay, remember
24:27
that movie about a Rocky when remember
24:30
the movie rock No No, No, No, no, no no. It
24:32
was one of the Rockies where he fought Antonio Talfer.
24:35
He was already retired and he was already done, and they
24:37
did it for like fun. This would
24:39
be something. This was for money though, so the name for fun. But this was
24:41
this was that reminds me of that was a movie. And
24:43
well, let's see, I would love to see the fight forty old
24:46
fighters kill still still Bang. George Farman won
24:48
the title after forty back in the day like or
24:50
late light, Lee can get busy still Okay,
24:53
I think that would be a great matchup, layl Lee train
24:55
for like a year and her and Clarissa
24:57
Shields getting on in two twenty one. Sometimes
24:59
who's gonna w I don't
25:01
know. I mean, I don't know a toss up for me? All
25:04
right? I would, I would, I don't know a toss up for
25:06
me. Well. Jesse Smolette was back in court
25:08
yesterday. He pleaded He pleaded not guilty
25:11
at his arrangement for lying to the cops,
25:13
but in some off news. The
25:15
guys that allegedly did this to him. Able and Olah,
25:18
the brothers, the two Nigerian brothers. They were in
25:20
court yesterday and they said that Jesse
25:22
was pretty pissed off, and so it was the lawyer and this is what the lawyer
25:25
said about it. They're here to support the
25:27
process. They are here because they
25:29
want the truth to be told. The
25:31
brothers want the public to know that
25:33
they were honest and open and
25:36
remorseful about their conduct involved
25:38
in this entire event. They have been
25:41
truthful since they won. They
25:43
will continue to be truthful.
25:46
They will continue to cooperate.
25:49
They will be here till the very end
25:51
of this process. Now why they were in court yesterday,
25:53
I don't know. I don't know. Abron it
25:56
was the named Abra and Ola. Abel and Able
25:58
and Ola. Able and Ola sound like the stars of like
26:01
an African fairy tale. Like they get lost in
26:03
the woods and get stuck in a gingerbread house
26:05
and I got to eat their way out. That's
26:07
all you got out of that? Huh. It just sounds their name
26:09
song. That's dope, Actually, that's it
26:12
sounds like they should be some type of team okay new
26:14
WWE tag team, alright, able
26:16
and Ola Nigerian Express.
26:20
That's how you got that? All right? Well, that is your room
26:22
of report morning. Everybody is DJ
26:25
Envy, Angela Yee, Charlomagne
26:27
the guy. We all the breakfast club. We have a special
26:29
guest in the building. Indeed, AOC
26:32
is what they call Hello, good morning, welcome
26:35
man, Alexandria o'casil cortet. That's
26:37
everything right, yep, you got it all right? Worried
26:39
about it that well?
26:46
For people that don't know, tell them how you got into politics.
26:48
Tell them your story from the Bronx. The youngest
26:51
person ever in Congress, by the way, and it was amazing
26:53
when you got elected. And I always say the
26:55
craziest people in America come from the Bronx and all the four
26:57
that is true. That is one
27:00
hundred percent true. So
27:02
I'm a third generation Bronxite. My
27:05
dad was born in the Bronx. My grandmother
27:07
moved to the Bronx from Puerto Rico. And
27:09
growing up, you know, being born in
27:11
the Bronx, my parents they had to
27:15
we felt a pressure to move out so that I
27:17
could have an education. The idea
27:19
that our zip code determined
27:22
so much of the quality of
27:24
life that the way that
27:26
my parents felt like I needed a shot was to be
27:28
somewhere else. And so after I
27:30
graduated college, I moved back to the Bronx and I started
27:33
doing education work with young kids, and
27:36
that kind of brought me into activism.
27:39
And I never
27:41
thought that I was going to run for political office,
27:44
but I felt like, you know, this window
27:46
really opened in twenty sixteen,
27:49
and I felt like our representation
27:51
wasn't good enough, and I decided
27:54
running a primary election against a twenty
27:56
year incumbent. Yeah,
27:59
and I was out spent ten to one, three
28:01
million dollars put in against me. But we did
28:03
it the old fashioned way, organizing people
28:06
in the community, aunts, uncles,
28:08
away las, everybody knocking on doors.
28:11
And it was one of the probably
28:13
one of the biggest upsets of twenty eighteen.
28:16
Those of us want Spanish inclinent. What did that mean, Grandma?
28:22
Did a lot of people who traditionally weren't voting,
28:24
did they come out to vote? Yes, we expanded
28:27
the electorate about sixty eight
28:29
percent above the last off your
28:31
midterm primary. And that's
28:34
how we really changed this thing. Because
28:36
we're not going to change our outcomes
28:39
with the same voters that have
28:41
been determining all of our other outcomes. But
28:44
what are some of the misconceptions of democratic socialism.
28:48
I think there's a lot of misconceptions. One
28:50
is that there's a huge generational divide. Older
28:53
people tend to think of democratic socialism through
28:55
the lens of the Cold War, right,
28:57
like they think of communism, and
28:59
they think of all of these things. Younger
29:01
people, I think our views on
29:04
democratic socialisms have been
29:06
really shaped in our political
29:08
upbringing. The first time I ever voted
29:10
an election, when I turned eighteen, was for
29:12
Barack Obama. And now
29:15
the people who voted for Barack Obama
29:18
at the youngest possible age that they could vote for
29:20
him, now we're in our thirties.
29:23
And so the last ten years,
29:25
our entire adult political lives have been
29:28
shaped by the discourse. And so since
29:30
the time I was eighteen years old, Republicans
29:33
and you know, people at large, have called
29:36
healthcare socialist, public education
29:38
socialist. They've called systems
29:41
that the rest of the modern developed world has,
29:43
like universal healthcare, paid
29:46
family leave, tuition free public colleges and
29:48
universities. All of those things are
29:50
called socialist or democratic socialism.
29:53
But for me, My political
29:55
ideology has really come from
29:58
people in the America in tradition like Howard
30:01
Thurman, Martin Luther King, even
30:03
Albert Einstein was a democratic socialist,
30:05
Ella Baker, James Baldwin, all
30:08
of these folks come from a tradition of
30:10
critique of this obsession
30:13
with money and profit and capital
30:15
at all human and environmental costs. And
30:18
when you actually look at the present day, some of
30:20
the most popular policies and
30:22
things that we have are not capitalist.
30:26
Medicare, medicaid, social security,
30:28
libraries, public schools, firefighters,
30:31
infrastructure. None of these things
30:34
were built because
30:36
they come at a profit. There are some things
30:38
that should be economic or social
30:40
rights, and we've established that as such.
30:43
It's like, I mean, to me, when I hate democratic socialism,
30:45
I had compassionate capitalists. Why
30:47
not tweak the message, just the little meat. If that's
30:49
how you see it, then I think that's how
30:51
you see it. I do think that there are important
30:53
differences. Compassionate capitalism
30:56
to me is like raising
31:00
the minimum wage a little bit,
31:02
and to me, democratic socialism is
31:05
unionizing your workplace or having a worker
31:07
cooperative. It's a different structure.
31:10
The fact that, Okay, you've
31:13
really challenged to seeing your leadership in the Democratic
31:15
Party. How's your relationship with them now? You
31:18
know, I think the one thing that I'm
31:20
thankful for is that I do
31:22
think that people now know
31:25
that I'm you know, now that I'm a year in, that
31:28
I'm not doing this to play games.
31:30
This is not like an ego thing. I
31:33
think there is a certain degree of respect that
31:35
they know that when
31:37
I'm being a pain in
31:39
the butt, it's over an issue. You
31:42
know. For example, there are two bills pushing through
31:44
right now in Congress on marijuana
31:47
deregulation and legalization. So one
31:50
is a justice bill, and it's making
31:52
sure that we are taking care of and expunging
31:55
people's records and that we are making right
31:58
in the criminal justice side. And the other
32:00
side is the banking side, which
32:02
is to allow banks to actually deal
32:05
with incoming money from what
32:07
we now deem as federally illegal
32:11
and purchases of cannabis. And
32:13
so, you know, one of the confrontations
32:16
that I had this year was we should not
32:18
pass the banking bill first.
32:21
We should pass the justice bill
32:23
first. And that seems like a given to
32:26
us. To us,
32:29
it's a given. But of course,
32:31
the easier thing to pass is the banking
32:33
bill. And here's the actual problem is
32:36
that the people who made money and profited off
32:38
of private prisons now get to turn around
32:40
and take that capital and be the first people to invest
32:43
in, you know, the market for marijuana
32:46
and cannabis. Meanwhile, it's
32:48
our communities that are still dealing with the scourge,
32:51
even if you're out, still having
32:53
that on your record. And so right
32:55
now, you know, it's one of those things where it's like seen as
32:58
annoying or it's a fight because
33:00
I'm saying we should do things differently.
33:03
But I think ultimately the relationship
33:05
is okay. You know, I'm not like trying
33:08
to curry favor or
33:10
be liked, but ultimately I think that's also
33:13
why it's why there's some kind
33:15
of respect there too. Now, being from New
33:17
York, what do you think about former Mayor Bloomberg
33:19
running for president? What are your thoughts? I
33:21
think it's not a good idea.
33:24
I think our experiences have
33:27
seen this, you know, from stopping
33:29
frisk to the surgeon housing
33:31
costs in New York City, to
33:34
even his own history on redlining,
33:36
to how he talks about transgender
33:39
people. I think I don't
33:41
think it's the smart thing
33:44
to do. I think people
33:47
think that his money makes it a
33:49
safer bet against Trump, and I actually
33:51
don't think that that's the case at all. How
33:53
do you explain so many black people
33:55
falling in line? Well,
33:58
ay, I think a lot of people don't know
34:01
Bloomberg. Like we're here in New York City, we
34:03
lived under his tenure as
34:06
mayor, and this is
34:08
part of what he's doing, Like when he comes in swoops
34:10
in super late in the game with
34:13
billions of dollars at his disposal
34:16
and is able to kind of shower the
34:19
air waves with his cash. But also
34:21
he funds a lot of nonprofits and
34:24
a lot of charities with you know, his
34:26
Bloomberg philanthropies and so I
34:28
think, and mayoral campaigns, yeah, and
34:31
mayoral campaigns and all sorts of stuff. And he
34:33
and he also gave a lot to a lot of different campaigns.
34:36
So I think people see what he's done with his money.
34:38
They haven't. And I think a lot
34:41
of people may have endorsed him without seeing what
34:43
he did when he actually had a position of power.
34:47
That's the main thing. I think that's
34:49
enough for me to somebody that can beat Trump. I I
34:52
agree, obviously we have to beat Trump.
34:54
But if we beat Trump
34:57
and go back to the same policies
34:59
that we had before, or a
35:01
worse Trump is going to come. A Trump that's
35:03
more sophisticated, whose fascism
35:06
is less obvious is
35:09
going to come, and things could get even worse. Would
35:11
you ever take money from Bloomberg? No? Why
35:14
wouldn't you take money from Bloomberg? Only reason I asked because
35:16
I know he gave Stacey Adams five million for Fair Fight twenty
35:18
twenty, and he said that he would give a billion dollars to whoever
35:21
the Democratic nominee is why why can't we
35:23
wellcuse money? One thing is that I
35:25
don't need it. You know, I've worked really really
35:27
hard to be financially
35:31
independent of wealthy
35:33
people in how I run for office, and
35:36
b I don't think that it's worth the
35:39
optics of he donated all this money,
35:41
so he has some influence, well more the optics,
35:43
but the power, like it's not just I
35:46
mean, people say all the time, oh, I
35:48
can take this check, it doesn't influence me. It
35:50
does, right, even if he's just giving you the money because
35:52
he wants to beat Trump. I
35:55
think there's a lot of ways he can do that. To
35:57
beat Trump that I don't necessarily need to
35:59
accept. He can fund lots of other
36:01
candidates. He can fund organizations like fair
36:03
Fight, which is fighting voter suppression. I don't
36:05
think a dollar from Michael
36:08
Bloomberg's wallet is like a
36:11
morally wrong thing. But
36:13
for me, you know, I rely on small
36:15
dollar donations, and I
36:17
think that the independence for me is important.
36:20
It's more important than the cash. The years twenty
36:22
twenty five, he'll see it's thirty five years old. To
36:25
rock com. President Bloomberg's like, here's a billion
36:28
dollars, they'll see rock out. Now.
36:30
Now, we talk a lot about these Democratic nominees
36:33
and the past things that they've done that
36:35
have affected us negatively, But what if
36:37
some of these candidates come forward now and have some
36:40
plans for the future. Do we say, Okay,
36:42
this was in the past, they've learned from that, and now
36:44
they have these great plans that they're implementing. Do
36:47
we come to accept that because we
36:49
don't know? Obviously, by now, Bernie Sanders looks
36:51
like he's doing a great job and he's leading
36:53
everybody in the polls. But whoever it is, do
36:56
we rally behind that person if it's a Joe Biden, Noor
36:58
Bloomberg, even though their path
37:00
if you don't agree with M.
37:03
I think that redemption
37:05
in politics is an
37:08
acceptable thing, but you have to earn
37:10
it. It needs to be proven
37:12
through years of work
37:15
and evolution for the right thing. This
37:17
is what happened with Bloomberg. He was
37:20
down with stopping frisk. He fought
37:22
for it in the courts. The courts overturned
37:24
it as unconstitutional, he still fought
37:27
it, defended it after him being
37:29
mayor, and then, like the first time we've heard him
37:31
say it was wrong, five minutes before
37:33
he runs for president, he says, Okay, maybe this wasn't so
37:37
Yeah, exactly. People need to prove
37:39
through their actions and through what they're willing
37:42
to withstand how down
37:44
they're going to be with our communities. But I
37:47
also think that this year is just
37:50
tremendously dangerous, Like if we
37:52
elect Trump again, I don't
37:54
even know what is going to be left
37:56
after four years of that. But that's why I
37:58
think we have to nominate someone who can do both. Who
38:01
is that person though, because I mean, listen, everything you're saying
38:03
is true, but who None of these people are
38:05
proving themselves when it comes to black and brown communities
38:07
not to me when it comes to legislation policies
38:10
like who I think that there is
38:13
a problem where we
38:16
lean on saviorism a lot, yes,
38:18
and like, no elected
38:20
official is going to save anybody.
38:23
And I'm saying that as an elected official, because
38:26
first of all, it's all part of a larger system. So
38:28
you can have one great, amazing, incredible
38:31
elected official, there's still in a system that's completely
38:33
bogged down in the legacies of racism
38:36
at basically American apartheid
38:38
with Jim Crow, with the
38:40
genocide of Native people. So I
38:43
think that knowing that, I
38:45
think what's really important and what's special right now
38:47
about about this moment is that we are
38:49
starting to get politicians that are accountable
38:51
to mass movements. And I
38:54
think Bernie Sanders has that accountability
38:56
to mass movements. I think you have
38:59
some folks that you had some great candidates in this
39:01
Julian Castro. I think Elizabeth Warren has some
39:03
of that accountability as well, and we're
39:06
just starting to get that. So
39:08
I understand why people look at this
39:11
whole field and don't feel particularly inspired.
39:13
But I think if we continue to support
39:17
those candidates that are accountable
39:19
to mass movements, and I think that Bernie
39:21
is the most accountable. I would like to see as
39:23
his vice president got to be a black woman. I
39:26
mean, of course, we'd like
39:28
to see diversity on that slate. There's a lot
39:30
of great candidates out there. I
39:33
don't know. I'd love to see Nina Turner with Bernie.
39:36
Nina Turner is incredible. I think that Bloomberg
39:39
is going announced Stacy Abrams
39:42
and I think Bidenessen and the Harris would
39:44
be formidable. I just think you have to have a woman
39:46
of color with you. Yeah, I think it's important to
39:48
have that diversity at
39:50
the top of the ticket. But I think it's really important
39:52
that we don't just start engaging in tokenism.
39:55
Like it's not just about putting a woman
39:57
of color a black woman just because they're a woman color,
39:59
a black woman. It's like qualified,
40:02
of course, of course. How do how do you
40:04
feel about Bernie bros and gals who attack
40:06
people who speak out against Bernie on social
40:08
media? Well, I you know, when I
40:11
see some of this behavior, it's unacceptable, right, So,
40:13
like if you're out here attacking
40:15
a person personally, you
40:18
know, it's one thing to be to be tough
40:20
in a debate and to point out hypocrisy and to
40:22
say, you know, this doesn't make
40:24
any sense, or this position
40:27
hurts working people. It's one thing
40:29
to to say that, it's another
40:32
thing to just be
40:34
dehumanizing. And we see that everywhere
40:36
from our schools all the way up to
40:39
you know, adults, like it's just
40:42
so easy now for a kid to drop a
40:44
comment, for a person to drop a comment
40:46
that they would never say in real
40:48
life. I know you experienced that a lot. Oh
40:51
yeah, I mean President, the president
40:53
do some shots with you. I don't think he would never say to you from oh
40:55
no, he yea,
40:58
he never would like keep that same energy,
41:02
keep that same energy, compliment
41:06
mc donald, chump doesn't like you. It's like I'm doing something
41:08
right then. Yeah, well, I mean I think he's scared.
41:11
Were you surprised when he sent out that tweek? No,
41:13
you were surprised. You knew it was coming here. I yeah,
41:15
I felt it coming because A he's
41:18
obsessed with television, and so
41:20
he responds to things that he sees on television and
41:23
because I'm on Fox News like all the time.
41:26
But also he doesn't like
41:28
attention not being on him. So
41:31
if attentions on anyone else. If it's on Adam
41:33
Schiff, it's on Nancy Pelosi, if it's
41:35
on Colin Kaepernick, he's
41:38
gonna try to find a way to
41:40
reel that back in. And
41:43
he is because he's a narcissist, but he is he
41:45
is good at it. I don't know if I blame the media for that at
41:47
him, because it's both yea, It's
41:50
like it's like an addictive, unhealthy
41:53
relationship that they have. They can't
41:55
stop covering him and he can't
41:57
stop consuming it. Got
42:00
more with AOC when we come back, don't move. It's
42:02
the breakfast club. Good morning morning. Everybody
42:04
is DJ Envy, Angela Yee.
42:06
Charlomagne the guy, we are the breakfast Club.
42:08
We're still kicking it with AOC, Charlemagne. Isn't
42:11
that dangerous for you though? When you got the president calling you a
42:13
whack job? It's very dangerous. Um.
42:15
I had a point last year where I would
42:17
wake up in the morning and I look at pictures of people
42:20
who are trying to harm me that day, like and
42:22
a lot of times it was white supremacists.
42:26
Like it's very, very real, and it's
42:28
very scary. That's why I think when people like
42:30
especially on the far right. They're like, oh, this is an attention
42:33
thing. It's like, I am not doing this for my health.
42:36
Actually bad for your health. So do you pull up to the
42:38
Bronx and hire some goons. I
42:41
actually feel safest in the
42:43
Bronx. I figured that the Bronx that happened,
42:46
I feel safest in. It's when I'm in DC that
42:48
I feel way less safe. Actually,
42:52
yeah, And it's
42:55
funny. I go home. I go home and like, I
42:57
live in the same neighborhood that I've always lived in it, and so like
43:00
if any of my neighbors or anyone in the building
43:02
sees anything off, I mean you know how it is. It's
43:04
like a new car or her
43:07
anything like that. People are like, hey, heyy
43:09
have you seen that, Like go to the store, stay in there
43:11
and be careful that someone outside it doesn't
43:13
look right. But yeah, but like nothing ever,
43:16
nothing ever weird has happened. But the funniest thing was
43:18
one time New York one,
43:20
like the news truck came and we were doing an interview,
43:22
and all my neighbors were like New York ones out here, like
43:25
like, go to the store, hide in there. It's like, no,
43:28
it's fine. I would ask you a few more questions.
43:30
You channel Nancy Pelosi once,
43:32
but on a view you called her Mama Baron.
43:34
You said, tell people don't mess with Mama. Yeah.
43:37
So when you see somebody like students A Randon promoting
43:39
to primary Nancy Pelosi,
43:41
how did that make you feel? Well? I think
43:44
it like you can hold two things at the same
43:46
time. It's kind of like when you have
43:49
family and you argue with people in your family,
43:51
but you're still at the end of the day a family. I
43:54
think it's kind of like that within a party, is
43:56
that ultimately we're
43:59
going to disagree with each other, and sometimes those
44:01
disagreements are going to be big disagreements,
44:05
but ultimately we
44:08
need to make sure that we defeat Trump.
44:11
And like a democratic maturity, at
44:13
the end of the day, as problematic as it can
44:15
seem, sometimes is better than a Republican
44:18
maturity. Nancy Pelosi is
44:21
just insanely skilled. Like,
44:23
whether you agree with her or
44:26
disagree with her, no one can
44:28
say she doesn't know what she's doing. Ye that tweet
44:30
from Susice rand Affair, Well, you will
44:33
never hear me speak out against a primary election,
44:35
because I want in a primary election I
44:37
think it's wrong for me to close the door behind
44:39
me, to say, oh, I can get here this way, but no one
44:41
else should. So you support incoming candidates?
44:44
Are I support incoming candidas?
44:46
And I support primary challengers. It's all about
44:48
the work that you're that you're putting up. And
44:50
I saw people calling you a hypocrite because you got your
44:53
god daughter into a charter school a few
44:55
years ago, and they say that's a no no for democratic
44:58
socialist base. How do you respond to it? Cousin,
45:00
you know, and my goddaughter, he
45:03
made a choice given what that
45:05
was in the South Bronx, and he asked me to help
45:07
him. Would I help him fill out the form
45:10
so that he could pursue
45:13
this choice that he made for his daughter. And how
45:15
are you going to tell someone no? Because ultimately
45:18
the present situation is
45:21
that and the situation that he was in
45:24
was that we grew up and
45:26
he was raised in the Bronx
45:28
when dropout rates were forty fifty
45:31
sixty percent and his
45:33
school was completely totally
45:36
inadequate, and he was
45:38
faced with the choice a generation later to send
45:40
his daughter to that same school without enough
45:42
improvements. And so the
45:45
deal ist. So what we fight
45:47
for is policy where he never
45:49
has to make that choice again. It would be hypocritical
45:53
if we weren't proposing policies
45:55
where you don't have to make choices. You
45:58
don't have to make choices like that. A couple
46:00
more questions, Bernie, one of his main
46:02
pushes his Medicare for all, but you recently
46:04
say we may need to be flexible on that to get things
46:06
done. Yeah. So I
46:09
appreciate the opportunity opportunity
46:11
to talk about this so because I think what's
46:13
really important is that we fight for the full freight
46:15
of Medicare for all, and so this is
46:17
not about rolling back on it at all. In fact,
46:20
if anything, we should talk about why
46:22
a public option is not good,
46:24
and the reason for that is because you
46:27
set up a public option for insurance, then
46:29
you let all the like for profit insurers
46:32
continue to kind of reign
46:35
in the way that they do. What they will
46:37
do is that they will kick off all the sick
46:39
people onto the public option plan, and
46:41
then all of a sudden, our public option
46:44
seems crazy expensive because
46:46
you have all sick people and no
46:48
healthy people, which as we know, does
46:51
not work in insurance. So Medicare
46:53
for All is a single payer system is
46:55
the best way to do it, because if you do use a public
46:57
option as a middle staff
47:00
up, it actually, in my opinion, makes it
47:02
politically less feasible to get medicare
47:04
for all, because what you're doing is that you're frontloading
47:07
all of the worst parts of the system,
47:10
and then you're asking people to politically
47:12
support expanding that. What was the point
47:15
of impeachment, Well,
47:17
so the thing is is if we
47:19
allowed the president to continue doing
47:22
everything that he did and the House didn't
47:24
act, then it was going to be on us,
47:28
right because people were criticizing when there
47:30
was no impass Then it's on us.
47:32
It's Democrats who are choosing not
47:35
to pursue the rule of law in the United States
47:37
of America. Now that
47:40
it's you know, moved to the Senate
47:42
and the Senate acquits. This is on Mitch
47:44
McConnell. This is on Marco Rubio, This
47:47
is on Ted Cruz, This is on Susan
47:50
Collins, this is on Lisa Murkowski.
47:53
They are responsible for the degradation
47:56
of the rule of law and our slow descent into
47:58
fascism frankly a slow
48:00
distance. Yeah, I mean that's true too, that's true.
48:03
That's true. The elevator. Yeah, you
48:05
think he loses in twenty twenty. And the reason I say
48:07
that is because I see Democrats cannibalize in each
48:09
other so much like somebody like Joe Rogan
48:11
comes out endorses Bernie. People get
48:13
mad if oh don't accept that endorsement.
48:15
Why not? Yeah? First of all, I
48:18
don't think November is
48:20
a short bet for anybody. And
48:23
anyone that is telling you that
48:25
anyone candidate will for sure
48:27
when or any other candidate
48:30
will for sure lose is lying to you, because
48:32
those are the same people that thought Hillary had
48:34
it in the back in twenty sixteen. B There
48:37
is a very like it's just not certain
48:39
no matter who you nominate, which is why
48:42
it's not any one person that's going to beat
48:44
Donald Trump. We really need to
48:46
come together in a huge mass
48:49
movement, especially in the electoral
48:51
college states. Trump, When do we move
48:53
back to where we came from? Oh man, well,
48:56
some of us don't have the luxury we
49:00
are here. Um,
49:02
But I think, um, it's dangerous
49:05
now. You know it's dangerous now. And
49:07
I think what we really need to do is inspire
49:10
people who didn't turn out last time
49:12
to turn out this time and Alexandria. As
49:15
far as your career in politics, do you have some
49:17
goals for yourself that you see outside
49:19
of Congress in the near future. No,
49:26
no, no, no, no. I I
49:29
don't think. I
49:31
don't know. I'm and I'm an
49:33
optimistic person, but I just I
49:35
think that the things that we're fighting for right
49:38
now, there are some people where you just need
49:40
to put it on the line knowing that it's going to
49:42
limit your political prospects. And I'm
49:45
comfortable with that. Like, I'm okay
49:48
because I feel good about
49:50
my first year because I called the detention
49:52
camps at our border what they are. Yes,
49:56
And I feel good that I
49:59
stood up in the way that I stood up. I feel
50:01
good that I stood up for a seventy percent
50:04
wealth tax on incomes above ten million
50:06
a year. I feel good about those things. But
50:08
I also know that those severely.
50:11
You know, if I wanted something
50:14
bigger, I would have been much
50:17
more tepid. So
50:20
you're building a base though, Like I mean, you
50:23
know you're not when you're egible with at thirty five. Yeah,
50:25
but I building a base now, like that diverse base
50:28
you're talking about, that Obama coition coalition, you're
50:30
kind of building that now. Yeah, I mean, I think for
50:32
me it's less about aspiring
50:34
to a position as more about a mission.
50:37
You know, five years ago, I didn't wake up
50:39
and say, oh, I'm going to run for Congress.
50:42
I wouldn't have been bartending in a restaurant
50:44
if that was my long term political plan. And so these
50:47
last two three years have been such an enormous whirlwind.
50:49
And I happen to be a spiritual person,
50:52
and so I wake up and just try to think
50:55
of, given how things are right now,
50:58
what are the best ways I can be a vessel for good?
51:00
And maybe that means I continue
51:03
my life in politics. Maybe it means
51:05
I write books or become
51:08
a professor, or I don't know, get a cabin somewhere.
51:10
I have no idea. So I think
51:13
for me, it's just a day by day thing. But I
51:15
think that one of the biggest mistakes,
51:17
and one of the biggest reasons that our
51:19
politics is so messed up, is that everyone
51:22
is always trying to run for president, and
51:25
so it prevents them from taking
51:27
courageous stances because
51:30
even though they're in a position today to do something,
51:33
they're like, oh, if I do this now, how will this impact
51:35
me? If I want to run for president someday, that
51:38
you know. And
51:44
so I don't think that we
51:46
should be making decisions based on a positional
51:49
aspiration. I think we should be taking
51:51
positions and doing work based on what we're trying
51:53
to accomplish in this country. President
51:56
Donald Trump a f boy. When nobody's around, I
52:01
do have a potty mouth. In not
52:04
in from the bron from
52:06
the bron. Well, thank you for joining us. Thank you. You don't
52:09
be a scranger. No, of course, so thank
52:11
you for having me. It's AOC. It's
52:13
the Breakfast Club. Good morning, the
52:16
Breakfast Club. This
52:25
is the Rumor Report with Angela Yee
52:28
on the Breakfast Club. Now,
52:31
Dame Dash was on the last episode
52:33
of Growing Up Hip Hop and he had him
52:35
and his kids were in therapy. Well,
52:37
I don't think the therapy session worked out too well.
52:40
Let's play a clip of what happened. He told
52:42
me, don't come around until you
52:44
fix yourself. No, I didn't say that. Ye
52:50
wow. Okay, Please where
52:52
everybody, because
52:56
please everybody,
52:59
that's what I did. Okay, we can't get yes,
53:02
we can't. We can't get somewhere. You're the reason we
53:04
can't talk straight man. I'm
53:07
very disappointed in you. I'm disappointed in you
53:09
too. I know you are but to a child, and I took care
53:11
of you. You never gave me nothing in your life. What's
53:13
the problem? Geez? What am I missing
53:16
here? Nothing? They just went on a
53:18
therapy session. Doesn't mean that therapy is supposed to work, is supposed
53:20
to talk to it. He just uh he actually they
53:22
said to storm. Daddy said he called him both clowns
53:25
and then walked out of the room. And I know it's a
53:27
TV show, you know, but even though it's a TV
53:29
show, I still don't like to get involved with, you
53:32
know, parents and their children. Absolutely,
53:34
you know what I'm saying. I don't. I don't think that's none
53:36
of our business, even though it is on a TV show. But it
53:38
is on a TV show. I just really wish that when
53:40
when things like that, it's always hard to
53:42
heal when the world is watching. Yea, that
53:45
was a fact, you know. I just really wish that they were able
53:47
to do that without world. That might be the smartest
53:49
thing you ever said on this goddamn show in nine years.
53:51
Hard to heal when the world is watching, I
53:55
know I just did, But I'm
53:57
running for State said it, so you
54:00
got a shot now.
54:03
Yesterday Angela, he reported about Wendy
54:05
Williams dating a jeweler name
54:08
Will. Spill that team girl, let
54:10
me hear more. Wendy Williams said she's single
54:12
and she is not dating the guy Will. The
54:14
jewelers shout the Will. He's a cool
54:16
dude in the funeral Will. Yeah, you know? Why
54:19
are you confirmed with Will? Huh? Why
54:21
do you ain't called Will? My business? You
54:23
still? You want to know? Girl? I don't want
54:25
to know. I don't want to know. Now. Charlemagne
54:28
did an interview with Pete Davison yesterday
54:30
and they about a lot. So you would have spill
54:32
a little tea, honey, I
54:34
gotta spill te for the interviews up on YouTube. Let's play
54:36
clip of it. You have conversations with him about
54:39
when it's time to leave. Yeah,
54:41
I have conversations with a lot of people, that's
54:43
all. It's a hard thing to do because you don't want to ever
54:46
pull the trigger too early. But everybody's
54:48
always been like, you'll know when you know, and it'll
54:50
all be all right, do you know? Yeah? I
54:53
personally think I should be done with that show
54:55
because they make fun of me on it, like the point
54:57
it's a comedy sketch. No, like
55:00
I get it, but like I'm like
55:02
cold open like political punchlines
55:05
now like when I'm not there, like they'll
55:07
be like huhuh, but Pezza's jerk
55:09
face and you're like, whose side
55:12
of you on? That's exactly how I feel
55:14
working here, dropping a clue, Pete, David's tired
55:17
of me, but have been the jokes.
55:21
But sobody
55:23
in the corner now listen, Um,
55:27
yes, I feel Peteel responded
55:29
to Rye then say, I don't know you got
55:31
the paper over there. We gotta we gotta go to the point where they
55:33
talk about this play the partner. I have a weird
55:35
fe feeling in that building where I don't know
55:37
whose team they're playing for really, since
55:40
I really want to last year to be my
55:43
last year, but you know, I'm still around
55:45
and trying to try and knock
55:47
it away. So it doesn't feel like a family
55:50
environment. I mean, like Moreen's
55:53
and he's like the best and has treated
55:55
me with nothing but love and he's
55:57
like a father figure to me. But you know, as far
55:59
as everyone else, it's like, you know, it's
56:01
a cutthroat in show listen,
56:04
there are no permanent friends, our enemies when it
56:06
comes to business, and you know, sometimes you just gotta know when
56:08
to leave. Yeah, they they're saying that that
56:11
is untrue. They give him the Star treatment day
56:13
Whose day sayings?
56:16
Who? They say that too? I don't know, Dan gave it to
56:18
me. Well you know, if
56:20
you know say it, I know that part. All right?
56:23
To shoot Suicide Squad sequel in Atlanta.

It was allowed to skip the show for his power Ricky
56:28

56:30
the show's creator, gave him the week off to go. They
56:32

56:35

56:37
know is Pete Davidson stand up Special Alive

57:02
all right? And that is your room a report, Yes,
57:05
now Slaye Belie give me, don't you
57:07
know, man, we need former Vice President Joe Biden
57:09
to come to the front of the cone. We really need to have a
57:11
word with him. I know the South Carolina primaries for this weekend.
57:14
This is a big week in my home state of South
57:16
Carolina. I really need y'all to think about
57:18
what y'all doing this weekend. And uh, we
57:20
gotta we gotta have a word with Joe Biden. All right,
57:22
we'll get into that next keep it lock this to breakfast
57:24
club coming mane
57:27
say the game. Don't get the same man
57:30
you are. Donkey
57:35
today does not discriminate. I might not have
57:38
the song of today, but I got the donkey that the
57:44
breakfast club bitch. I just don't give today
57:47
today. Well, um, putting
57:49
some comments on the lips. Okay,
57:52
donkey today. For Tuesday, February twenty
57:54
fifth goes the former Vice President Joe Biden.
57:57
Joe Biden has to be one of the worst presidential candidates
57:59
of all time. This is his third time running
58:01
for president of the United States of America and
58:03
this year was supposed to be a layup. This
58:05
was the year that Joe Biden came into the series with
58:08
a three ye old lead before he even played a game.
58:10
Okay, people said he was the most electable candidate,
58:12
the only Democratic candidate who could beat Trump. Well,
58:15
if the primaries in any indication, he hasn't proven
58:17
he can beat Bernie Sanders, Helen tell
58:19
Nevada. He couldn't beat Matt Peak or Elizabeth Warren.
58:21
Now it's a very pivotal week. The primaries are happening
58:24
in my home state of South Carolina. Drop w a clues
58:26
bump for South Carolina Damna eight three
58:28
eight point three eight six four all day. All
58:30
right, that's the crib right there. And Joe Biden is
58:32
calling South Carolina his firewall. He's
58:35
hoping that his popularity among black voters,
58:37
older black voters is going to propel his trash
58:40
ass campaign the victory. Well, according to the
58:42
New York Post, the latest polls of Democrats
58:44
in South Carolina, that
58:46
those poles showed Biden, who wants at a twenty eight point
58:49
lead in November, has shrunk into just she
58:51
has trunk into just five percentage points. Because
58:54
the real fire is coming from the burn
58:56
otherwise known as Bernie Sanders. Okay, this is why you
58:58
always have to you know, to choose
59:00
people over Poles because of the last few Poles
59:03
from presidential elections and primaries in any indication,
59:05
Poles don't know what the hell they'd be talking about. Okay, Poles
59:07
told us we wanted Gore
59:10
over Bush. Pole told us we wanted Clinton over
59:12
Obama. Pole totals we wanted Clinton
59:14
over Trump. And Poles told us that Joe
59:16
Biden was gonna be the Democratic nominee for president this
59:19
year and there's nothing anyone could do about
59:21
it. That's what they say. Well, Bernie Sands,
59:23
Elizabeth Warren, mayor Pete, they all said the whole
59:25
of way to minute. Okay, y'all thought
59:27
we were finished. And now Bernie is that twenty two
59:29
percent and Joe Biden is that twenty seven percent. Now,
59:31
when you factor in the margins of error and each pole,
59:33
the two are virtually tied. And Joe Biden
59:36
is hoping that South Carolina's black Democratic voters
59:38
hand him a victory and give him momentum going
59:40
into Super Tuesday. If Bernie finished
59:42
his first place, well it's probably
59:44
likes auth for the Biden campaign. That would be a fatal, fatal
59:47
shot. Now, I don't have a dog in this fight. Full
59:49
disclosure. I'm waiting on the running mates
59:51
for all of these guys to be announced, because the running
59:53
mates for me is what will help me make a decision personally.
59:56
I feel like the first person to announce
59:58
the black woman is their VP win in my
1:00:00
book. Whether it's a Biden and Senator Harris
1:00:03
Bloomberg and maybe Stacy Abrams,
1:00:06
Bernie Sanders and maybe Senator Nina Turner,
1:00:08
I don't know. I'm just wishful thinking here,
1:00:10
but the first person to announce the black woman of the running
1:00:13
mate wins to me. Now, why is
1:00:15
Joe Biden getting dunkey today? Well,
1:00:17
yesterday he was attending the South Carolina Democrat
1:00:20
Parties First in the South dinner. I
1:00:22
was told he received the long consolvation of
1:00:24
any of his competitors, so I have to give him
1:00:26
profits for that. But when he was wrapping up his remarks,
1:00:28
I don't know if he had to pee. I don't
1:00:31
know if he had to do a number two. I
1:00:33
don't know if he was just tired, needed
1:00:35
a nap, whatever it was, he just mailed
1:00:38
this last line and it was very DJ
1:00:40
envious. Okay, and I have to factor
1:00:43
just shut up. This has to factor
1:00:45
into what decision you planned to make this weekend
1:00:47
in the South Carolina primary, Let's hear it. And
1:00:50
I have a simple proposition here. I'm
1:00:52
here to ask you for your help. Rod
1:00:54
come from. You don't get far unless
1:00:56
you ask. My name's Joe Biden. I'm a Democratic
1:00:59
Canada for the United States Senate. Look
1:01:02
me over your lake recy help out? If not both
1:01:04
the other bidy give me a look though. Okay, Lord,
1:01:07
have mercy to play one. And
1:01:09
I have a simple proposition here. I'm
1:01:11
here to ask you for your help. Where
1:01:13
I come from. You don't get far unless
1:01:16
you ask. My name's Joe Biden. I'm a Democratic
1:01:18
candidate for the United States Senate. Look
1:01:21
me over your lake recy help out? If not both
1:01:23
the other bidy give me a look though. Okay, you got
1:01:25
to go to the bathroom, bro. If you thought Joe
1:01:27
Biden was an uninspiring candidate before, if
1:01:30
you are not feeling Joe Biden because of the ninety
1:01:32
four crime build and he wrote, if you weren't feeling
1:01:34
Joe Biden because you heard that he's been accused of inappropriately
1:01:37
touching women. If you don't like Joe Biden because
1:01:39
he doesn't have a black agenda. If he has not moved
1:01:41
you at all this election cycle, then how
1:01:43
does this clip make you feel? How can
1:01:46
you vote with someone who doesn't even know what the hell they
1:01:48
are running for. My name's Joe Biden.
1:01:50
I'm a Democratic candidate for the United States
1:01:52
Senate. Joe Biden is
1:01:54
running for the highest seat in the land, president
1:01:56
of the United States of America. He was first
1:01:59
elected to US in nineteen
1:02:01
seventy two. It's two thousand and twenty.
1:02:04
Why how would he think he's running for US Senate
1:02:06
in two thousand and twenty. You know why It's so easy for
1:02:08
him to say that, because it's all rehearsed, it's all
1:02:10
robotic. They spew the same bs, redundant
1:02:12
rhetoric so much that it's all a blur. It doesn't
1:02:15
matter if it's nineteen seventy two running for US twenty
1:02:17
twenty running for president. All these negroes
1:02:19
look alike to me. Okay, you probably caught deja vu
1:02:22
because he's seen this before. I mean, when
1:02:24
you've seen one blind one
1:02:26
black, blind Democratic loyalist, you've
1:02:28
seen them all. Okay, now it's another part of
1:02:31
this clip we have to dissect real quick, So play
1:02:33
it if not both the other body, who
1:02:36
the hell is the other Biden? Play
1:02:38
the whole thing in its entirety one just one time, please,
1:02:41
And I have a simple proposition here. I'm
1:02:43
here to ask you for your help where I
1:02:46
come from. You don't get far unless
1:02:48
you ask. My name is Joe Biden. I'm a Democratic
1:02:50
candidate for the United States Senate. Look
1:02:53
me over your like, why help out? If not both
1:02:55
the other body give me a look though. Okay, who
1:02:58
the hell is the other Biden?
1:03:00
Play that for me in HD. I have to make
1:03:03
sure I'm hearing what I'm hearing
1:03:05
without both the other bike one more
1:03:07
time, If not both the other bike. It's
1:03:12
official. Joe Biden has been
1:03:14
cloned. See that's a robot.
1:03:16
That's why malfunctions, glitches, says
1:03:18
foolishness like this demand is seventy seven
1:03:20
years old. He can't be all over the country like that. So the real
1:03:22
Joe Biden is somewhere asleep. But he
1:03:24
needed to show up to night in the debate because this
1:03:27
Joe Biden, the y'all been having out here, this robot,
1:03:29
he's been getting his ass kick. Okay, we need that other
1:03:31
Joe Biden, who was the one y'all said was
1:03:33
the most selectable, the one y'all said can beat Trump.
1:03:36
You know, when y'all vote to vote in the SEC primary
1:03:38
this weekend, make sure that the other Joe Biden
1:03:40
is on the ballot, Okay, because this Joe Biden doesn't
1:03:43
deserve y'll votes. This Joe Biden is the same Joe
1:03:45
Biden who last week said he was arrested in South Africa
1:03:47
trying to free Nelson Mandela from prison. I
1:03:50
spent my whole life funding for civil rights,
1:03:52
voting rights, social justice, economic justice,
1:03:54
and that's what I'll do when I'm your president. This
1:03:57
day, thirty years ago, else
1:04:00
A Mandela walked out of prison, and there
1:04:02
in the discussions about apartetit either
1:04:04
great honor of meeting him, either great
1:04:07
honor of being arrested with our UN ambassador
1:04:09
on the streets of Psuedo trying to get to see
1:04:12
him on Robin's Island. He's never shared
1:04:14
that story before in his life. That
1:04:17
never happened. That never
1:04:19
happened. Nobody remembers that with Joe Biden.
1:04:22
He's making up arrest. He's telling us he's
1:04:24
running for the US Senate when he's running for president and
1:04:26
he's telling us to vote for the other Biden. Bro.
1:04:28
If the other Biden isn't on that ballot
1:04:31
in South Carolina, I don't know how you
1:04:33
could vote for his Biden. Okay, don't
1:04:35
let him fool you and tell you he's the only one who can
1:04:37
beat Trump. He hasn't even proven he can beat Bernie
1:04:39
yet. If Bernie doesn't stand against Trump, like some
1:04:42
experts say, then how can the Presidon losing, the
1:04:44
Bernie who doesn't even know what he's running for, beat
1:04:46
Trump. Well, the other Biden, please
1:04:48
stand up, because that's the mother. If what we need
1:04:51
at the other Biden, I will
1:04:53
just show me where he's at. Please
1:04:56
give Joe Biden the biggest he all this
1:05:01
is embarrassing. He's never got arrested in South
1:05:03
Africa. That's what the screech say, the
1:05:06
other Biden. Oh that's right, the bottom
1:05:09
man, My bad, Joe, forget that
1:05:11
the other Biden, the other Biden got arrested
1:05:13
in South Africa. Not that one. Got
1:05:16
you got you got
1:05:18
it? M all right? All
1:05:21
right, Well thank you for that, donkey to day. Now let's
1:05:24
talk crying mean faces. No, not
1:05:26
crying mean faces, just ugly cries. Period.
1:05:29
Yesterday Michael Jordan, to me, proved he's the Michael
1:05:31
Jordan of ugly crying when he gave
1:05:33
his speech at Kobe Brights Memorial.
1:05:36
There's nobody that ugly cries better than
1:05:39
Michael Jordan. It was already proven with the Michael Jordan
1:05:41
crying face meme. He doubled down down
1:05:43
it yesterday. Let you know he was the goat of
1:05:45
ugly cries. But it's some other cries. Let's open up the phone
1:05:47
line eight hundred five eight five, one oh
1:05:50
five one. We're talking about the ugliest cry
1:05:52
is out there now? Oh, young lady called earlier
1:05:55
when I made that statement, she said, Viola Davis.
1:05:58
I have to I have to agree with her on that. But it's some other
1:06:00
ones out there. Toby maguire's
1:06:04
from The Health Right. What movie is that? The Health
1:06:06
Right? No, none of y'all,

1:06:20
heart to play when we come back. Let's
1:06:23
play one one right very fast. My
1:06:25
gut and my heart is telling me that I just
1:06:27
like did this too fast, and I didn't know what
1:06:29
I was doing. And we said everyone's money, and we
1:06:32
said everyone's everything, and I feel bad. Oh,
1:06:34

1:06:37
down one, go down to all Kelly, Let's do this one.
1:06:39
This one was a horrible one. How can

1:06:45
a bad one. Bro, I
1:06:48
don't feel year

The Breakfast Club Morning.
1:07:28
Everybody is DJ Envy
1:07:30
Angela Yee, Charlomane the guy. We are
1:07:32
the Breakfast Club. And now if you just joined us, we're
1:07:35
talking about ugly crying faces.
1:07:37
Now this comes from Michael
1:07:39
Jordan. He was at Kobe Bryant's memorial. He
1:07:41
was just talking about his crying face as a meme.
1:07:43
I don't have to look at another crime meme for the
1:07:46
next I
1:07:48
told my wife I weren't gonna do this because I didn't
1:07:50
want to see that for the next three or four years. So
1:07:53
we were talking this morning, was like, yeah, it's pretty bad. Well,
1:07:56
listen, Michael Jordan is the
1:07:58
goat when it comes to the ugly cries. Like Michael
1:08:01
Jordan is the Michael Jordan of
1:08:03
ugly cries. I don't think there's nobody better
1:08:05
than Michael Jordan when it comes to ugly crime because
1:08:08
his tears stick to his face
1:08:10
right, and for whatever reason, they come out his eyes
1:08:13
but end up like on his forehead and
1:08:15
on his temples. And then it always looks
1:08:17
like he's snot coming out his nose, but the notts
1:08:19
not running. It's just little layers
1:08:21
of it right around the nostrils. Right. Well,
1:08:23
let's play let's play a couple of course? Um, can
1:08:26
we play? Viola
1:08:29
Davis? I've been right here with you, Troy. I
1:08:32
got a life too. I get eighteen
1:08:34
years of my life to stand in the same spot
1:08:37
as you. Don't you think I ever wanted
1:08:39
other things? Don't you think I had dreams?
1:08:41
And hopes, what about my life? What about
1:08:43
me? I think this is from the movie to help if
1:08:45
I'm not mistaken, I personally
1:08:48
think right after Michael
1:08:50
Jordan, another black man, who's
1:08:52
that with a ballhead? Who might
1:08:54
be number two? But it's too early
1:08:56
to tell. I've never seen you cry. He hasn't shut
1:08:59
the hell up. He hasn't. He hadn't stayed, He hasn't his
1:09:01
his tears haven't stood the test of
1:09:03
time yet, like Michael Jordan's who Tyrese
1:09:06
Gibson, Oh man, I just want
1:09:11
my baby. I'm at thirteen
1:09:13
thousand dollars a month. What more
1:09:15
do you want from me? Damn,
1:09:20
damn, damn. I'm gonna tell you another good one.
1:09:23

1:11:23
yeah, can somebody get I
1:11:28
see? I don't count our Kelly. Reason I don't count our Kelly
1:11:31
is because he deserved to do an ugly cry. When you commit
1:11:33
an ugly crime, you should be somewhere ugly
1:11:35
crime, whether it's in the prison style or somewhere.

1:13:21
Everybody is DJ Envy, Angela
1:13:23
Yee, Charlomagne and the guy we are the Breakfast
1:13:26
Club. Na if he just joined us. We're talking ugly
1:13:28
crying faces. Now. This comes from Michael
1:13:30
Jordan. He was speaking at Kobe
1:13:32
Bryant's memorial and he was talking about how every
1:13:35
time he cries, it becomes a meme. And
1:13:37
Charlomagne said, yeah, it's pretty ugly. Yeah, I mean
1:13:39
listen when I watched that. Even before he said
1:13:41
that, I said to myself, Michael Jordan
1:13:44
is about to bring back to Michael Jordan crying face
1:13:46
meme. There is nobody who ugly
1:13:48
cries like Michael Jordan. Michael Jordan is
1:13:50
the Michael Jordan of ugly crying
1:13:52
because it's just the way the tears
1:13:55
stick to his face and it's like a combination
1:13:57
of tears snotting sweat. I
1:13:59
call it TSS. That makes for
1:14:01
the perfect ugly cry and nobody
1:14:04
does it better than Michael Jordan's. Second
1:14:06
to me is a young man named Tyrese Gibson.
1:14:08
Tyrese had the tears, he had to snid,
1:14:11
didn't have that much sweat. I just
1:14:15
want my baby. I'm at thirteen
1:14:18
thousand dollars a month. What more
1:14:20
do you want from me? But
1:14:23
about what about Terrell Owens. It's really unfair.
1:14:25
It's really unfair. It's my team,
1:14:29
it's my quarterback. To Owns was okay,
1:14:31
seven Terrell terall was okay.
1:14:34
The thing about with Taroll it was no snide, it was no
1:14:36
sweat, It wasn't that like his face
1:14:38
didn't really move. It was decent. I
1:14:40
wouldn't put it in my top ten though. All right,
1:14:43
but let's go to the phone line. Hello, who's this yo?
1:14:46

1:14:56
He has the ugliest cry ever.
1:14:58
You may not be noticed, Liberty, but that cry made
1:15:01

1:15:03
I can't remember his name, but we got to cry right here. Let's
1:15:05

Jerry, then took all my energy. I don't have him more. The story
1:17:44

1:18:00
there's an m E and that mother will tell you who
1:18:03
said that me, So
1:18:05
don't move. It's the breakfast slogan morning oh
1:18:10
god. Now
1:18:17
Tory released. Tory Lanez released a statement
1:18:19
about his label situation.
1:18:21
He said, it's no blad, no bad blood
1:18:24
with the label in the scope, I had a five album
1:18:26
deal. I gave him twelve project albums. If
1:18:28
you include all the mixtape with original music,
1:18:31
I can officially go on record and say I exceeded
1:18:33
the five album mark and I'm still
1:18:35
just getting my feet in the water. It's
1:18:37
official. New Toronto three
1:18:39
comes out March and as soon as you
1:18:42
hear it, I have officially finished my deal
1:18:44
with Interscope. It's been real. Do
1:18:46
y'all care if people are signed anymore. I
1:18:48
do, really, I just love the fact that now you
1:18:50
know, now everything he puts out he eats off of.
1:18:53
I think that's pretty pretty dump, That's what I'm saying. Do you so, do you
1:18:55
care if people are signed? Like if somebody says, hey, I'm within the
1:18:57
scope, but I'm with def Jam, No, I don't care.
1:19:00
I don't care about that. But I love the fact that he created a
1:19:02
name for himself and now everything else he'll eat from
1:19:04
here on out. You know. I love that. I'm gonna be I don't
1:19:06
know why these guys just don't go straight to the screaming
1:19:09
services, Why they just don't go straight to the apples
1:19:11
and the Spotify. But the
1:19:13
labels still do a lot. They still pay a lot of
1:19:16
advertising. Yeah they
1:19:18
do, because I'll be saying, these albums just be coming out like
1:19:21
fart step. Yeah, but some sometimes
1:19:23
they do that. They they pay for videos, they
1:19:25
do billboards, they do campaigns. And
1:19:28
the last time I've seen a label,
1:19:31
I don't know when the last time I've seen an artists and been like, wow,
1:19:33
the labels really got a campaign behind that president,
1:19:35
I can't think of the last. Sometimes you see it hardy
1:19:37
maybe would invasion the privacy. But like, let
1:19:39
Cardi think of Cardi B. Of
1:19:42
course, Bible, you know why because he's white drama.
1:19:46
I'm not talking about that. But even Cardi B. Look at Cardi
1:19:48
B. You know, look at Atlantic. They made Cardi be
1:19:51
even bigger than what she was now when he last
1:19:53
records done, and then she could go on home. She doesn't need a label
1:19:55
anymore, you know. Yeah, all right, now, let's
1:19:57
talk about Kobe Bryant's memorial. Over
1:20:00
twenty two thousand people showed up,
1:20:02
and it was sad man. I
1:20:04
cried a couple of times watching it yesterday. When
1:20:08
Vanessa Bryant spoke, boy, I couldn't stop
1:20:10
the tears. God knew they
1:20:13
couldn't be on this earth without each other. He
1:20:16
had to bring them home tapping together. Babe,
1:20:21
you take care of our chee chee, and
1:20:23
I got nanny BB and Cocoa. We're
1:20:26
still the best team. We
1:20:29
love it. Miss you Booboo and chi Chie. You
1:20:33
both rest in peace and have fun in
1:20:35
heaven until we meet again one
1:20:37
day. We love you both and
1:20:40
miss you forever and
1:20:42
always. Mommy, the
1:20:44
best thing they did was wait, wait,
1:20:46
like what it has been almost a month yea. Since
1:20:49
he passed away, it was the best to do the
1:20:51
memorial a month later because it gets everybody a chance
1:20:54
to gather himself. You know, a lot of tears have already
1:20:56
been dropped over the past thirty days,
1:20:59
but it doesn't other reminded man that things are not in
1:21:01
your control. And I know our ego makes
1:21:03
us when we hear stories like this, Our ego makes
1:21:06
us want to say, oh, we gotta get things in control. I get things to
1:21:08
control. It's some things you just can't
1:21:10
control. Little Shack also spoke, and he talked
1:21:12
about the day he gained Uh Kobe's
1:21:14
respect the day Kobe gain my respectless.
1:21:18
The guys were complaining, said Shaq,
1:21:20
Kobe's not passing the ball. I'll talk to him,
1:21:23
I said, Kobe, there's
1:21:25
no I m t And Kobe
1:21:27
said, I know, but there's in me and that mother. That's
1:21:30
right. So we're
1:21:32
back control. Rick and Uh and
1:21:34
Big Sea said, just get the rebound. He's
1:21:36
not passional, Box
1:21:39
Shack, because when I tell everybody
1:21:41
in this room that it's all about me, they get mad at me.
1:21:44
Okay, instead of just getting the goddamn
1:21:46
rebound, Like, what are you talking about?
1:21:49
What are you talking about that's what that's why you dropped.
1:21:53
I don't care, all
1:21:56
right now. Jordan also spoke about Kobe,
1:22:00
his little brother. Kobe was my dear friend.
1:22:02
He was like a little brother. The questions
1:22:06
they're wanting to know every little detail
1:22:08
about life that they were about them. Barker,
1:22:11
he ushould call me, text
1:22:13
me eleven thirty two
1:22:16
thirty three o'clock in the morning,
1:22:18
talking about post up
1:22:21
moves, footwork and
1:22:23
sometimes the triangle.
1:22:27
At first it was an aggravation,
1:22:31
but then it turned into a
1:22:33
certain passion. Yeah, Michael
1:22:37
Jordan ever told Kobe Bryant, I love you, Michael
1:22:39
Jordan, don't seem like that I love you type of person
1:22:41
the other guys, you know what I'm
1:22:43
saying. I don't know. So even though he may have a lot
1:22:46
of love for you and may really love you, I don't know if he's
1:22:48
expressed it. But then he cries so much, so maybe I
1:22:50
don't know. We'll rest in peace, Kobe
1:22:52
Bryant, and again condolences
1:22:54
to his family. All
1:22:57
right, Well that is your rumor
1:22:59
report. Still it still don't feel real.

1:23:17
Now it's Black History Month. Will be saluting today.
1:23:20
Today we want to salute Katherine Johnson. She
1:23:22
was an American mathematician. If you've ever seen
1:23:24
the movie Hitting Figures, then
1:23:26
you know a little bit of the Katherine
1:23:28
Johnson's story. She was also a NASA
1:23:31
employee and they were critical to
1:23:33
the success of the first US crew space
1:23:36
flights Man. So we just want to give you a little
1:23:38
history lesson on miss Katherine Johnson. Since
1:23:40
she has passed away, The
1:23:43
Breakfast Club presents a new Black
1:23:45
History Month legend. I
1:23:47
started working on airplanes because
1:23:50
when I went there, that's what it was, at
1:23:53
a biostray committee baron artist.
1:23:56
When leave Space
1:23:58
program came along, I
1:24:00
just happened to be working with
1:24:03
guys and when they had briefing
1:24:05
something, I asked permission to
1:24:07
go and they said, well,
1:24:09
the girls don't usually go. Well, I said,
1:24:11
well, it's there a law. They
1:24:14
said no. I said, well, so then
1:24:16
my boss said, let it go, and
1:24:19
I began attending the briefings.
1:24:22
You already doing the work, but you didn't
1:24:24
know exactly wentness, And gradually
1:24:27
I did more. I knew more
1:24:29
about the geometry of the program
1:24:32
with all about the mapping
1:24:34
to the here and there, and so
1:24:37
it was very very easy
1:24:39
transition. And that was another New
1:24:41
Black History Month legend courtesy of
1:24:43
the Breakfast Club. All right and rest
1:24:46
in peace, Yes, indeed, all
1:24:48

1:24:50

1:25:37

1:25:39
a little too late. So from
