Speaker 1

Okay, look, before we start this show, hit the leg Part two. There are numerous ways to earn funds. I want to speak on a little personal note about like just to say thank you. You know what I'm saying a little bit about me and like I appreciate y'all. You know on this politics journey y'all it's season two officially. You know what I'm saying, renew contract out this mug. Appreciate you self, Appreciate you cools on letting your boy.

You know what I'm saying, keep dropping these gems. Appreciate you'all for listening, sharing it with the homies, like please keep sharing this mug because it's it's actually tied into what I'm gonna talk about, like what your value is actually quantifiable. It'd be doing something to your head. But like that's kind of how podcasts it works. It's like they look in the numbers. Do you like this show? Yeah? Well I don't know what it was looking at the numbers.

It's show good you feel be so like man, y'all y'all commenting, y'all sharing like it's it's greatly appreciated. I know I'm no behind the bastards. I noticed ain't no. You know, I'm saying, drink Champs, I ain't ain't doing them numbers, you feel me, But like it would be nice if I was. You know, an educational show about politics and good stuff is uh out here on this like extremely anarchist podcast network is go be you know, me and me and the home girl bridget Todd holding

down the entire black population. Oh man, I'll play it hard to get them numbers up. But I appreciate you all riding with me, riding for me, but yeah, we gotta get that weight up, gotta get them numbers up. Anyway, season to you know we're here, We're gonna be talking about a lot of dope stuff this season. You know, I'm saying, like I'm introduced at the more people like

DJ Head, like my homeboy JB. Black people who are again embodying what we're trying to build with this pod man and hopefully encourage how to get involved, get involved, get involved, and stand your ground. That's a feral much song that I'm pretty sure y'all missed. But yeah, Hood politics for me started off as a side project and I was like, look, man, you know this is fun and I'm gonna give it the amount of tention and energy equal to the amount of funds it generates from

my home. You feel me. And once it started like generating funds, I was like, yo, I'm start giving it the gasoline, feel me. There are numerous ways to earn funds, you know, Like y'all know, I do music, I do poetry. You know what I'm saying. But I'm not prideful enough to be like, no, you're gonna rappers. It's like not a family like be an artist, black man, get your money, black man, black man, get your money. And for me,

it's a long intro. But like we're in season two, I'm feeling a little reflective and it's the end of the year or for you, beginning of the year. So I'm feeling really reflective here for me. When it came to whatever lick, I was gonna here for life. For me, I was like, I refuse to not enjoy my day. I remember in school they was telling you about like, yo, you know what you go hey, if you work in this field, you can make this much money here, And I'm like, okay, cool, but I don't want to do that.

That just that doesn't sound fun. So I don't know. I like, I'm not motivated by you telling me how much I could earn doing this job if I don't want to do that job. So for me, I was like, I want to make my living by doing things I enjoyed. Now full disclaimer, I tend to lean towards workaholic more than I Actually I'm one of the weird ones. It like I like work. You know, that's me being an

elder millennial. I guess you know what I'm saying, Like you know, you got a little bit of that X you know what I'm saying, and a little bit of that millennial to where you coul kind of do both. You feel me where it's like, oh, I don't mind working, I don't mind long days, I don't mind doing what I gotta do to get to it. You feel me I will overwork. But at the same time, and I'm also like, you're not gonna yell at me because you

know I'm saying I'm gonna have boundaries. HOLI now I listen, listen, listen, I ain't I ain't wearing nobody's uniform. And look, my day off is my day off. If I decided to work, I'm gonna work, but like I ain't gonna be nobody supporting it, homie. And I was patient enough to get to at you know, It's not like my first job out the box was this. Not My first job was like dog. I worked at a party supply store. Then I worked at the mall. You feel me, And like

I said, I was a teacher, you know. But what I'm trying to say is I'm not afraid. I'm not saying this to say that I'm afraid to work. I don't mind working, and I understand that, you know, you do what you gotta do. Anyway, that was the rule for me. It was like, what do you like, now, make it make you money? And it was that simple to me that that was the lick. There's this gentleman named John Perkins. He's man. He's probably in his nineties now.

He's one of the uh Jackson, Mississippi man. He's he um like a I mean, I'm like like a like a civil rights like o G civil rights organizer o G. I remember I was speaking at a conference in Chicago, and the shuttle from the hotel to the conference center downtown. He and I just happened to be in the same like shuttle together and now like this is like an O G of O G like h you know sometimes when you could tell you in the presence of greatness.

This was one of those things like do your Google's you know what I'm saying, like John Perkins Foundation, Like I mean, like he cut from that MLK cloth because like they're like counterparts, you feel me, like they're anyway or counterparts Patriots contemporaries. That's what I'm looking for, that contemporaries. So We're in the car and he asked me what I do and at the time, Mike, I was just doing like at the event, I was just doing some poetry. So I was like, I'm doing some poetry, you know.

He's like, what do you do for a living? I was like music and poetry. He was like, oh, that's great, you know. And after I'm feeling like, man, I want to tell him about my education. I'm like, man, you know, but I went to college, you know what I'm saying, Like, you know, um to high school for a while, like you know, I got you know, graduate level education, you know what I'm saying, Like I want to tell him, like you know, but like I'm not just out here

being you know, just struggle artists. And he said, and it changed my life. Like I was like, oh, I rethought everything. He was like poetry, he was like music. He goes, okay, you'll never be unemployed. I was like, oh, wait, because you talk, you know, starving artists, gonna get your education. He was like, because he comes from that. He came from Jackson, Mississippi. He comes from that, Jim Crow. So he was like, listen, you know, I'm not gonna do

his accent because I just don't do it well. But he's got that old eighties black man, like as in in his eighties black man. He was just like, your education, that diploma, that degree. He was like, these people can ignore that. They could just decide they don't care how many degrees you've got. They're not gonna hire you. But if you have a skill like that, you don't need nobody to hire you. You can always work. I that's how That's what happened in my brain, that blank space

right now. I was like, wait, totally talked the opposite. My whole life was like, no, get your education, because they can't take that from you. And he's like, no, they can. It's not that they can't take it from you. They can ignore it. Your skills, your talent, that's they can't ignore that. You can always go get work, you know. It's like niggd is you can't. After that, I was like, yeah, no, you can't tell me nothing. This my lick. This is

what I'm gonna do. These hands like my homeboy of mercy. These hands more for these hands. You feel me like, oh we we were turning up. I'm gonna hit that lip. It's going down. There are numerous ways to earn funds. But enough about me. Uh, let's talk about these funds. Let's talk about these hustlers and hitting this lick. Part two.

Y'a all ready, Hood politics alright, so listen. First time we talked about the hustle, hitting the leg hustler and the skill, that transferable skill that that hustler has, you know, to know where the money could be made and how to do it. And I think that like, as the consumer, now, let me let me let me move y'all into the right quick and it it may not even be the hood like I'm you know, obviously I used that term as an umbrella term, but I think the difference between

us you know and not us. I think it's the awareness of what's going on now. When I was a child out we used to go to the garment district in downtown l A for school shopping, your school closing. We went downtown to the alley it's called the Santi Alias in the garment district or the fashion district in downtown l A. Now here's the thing. You think, we don't know that these designer closed down here ain't designer.

Like I know that these T shirts that are three for ten dollars, you know, are not the actual brand. And if they are, you feel me. These are the knockoff, like the ones that are not good, you know what I'm saying, Like these are the irregulars outlet shopping, you know, when you're logging into your stock X or whatever, like you know, shoe exchange. I am fully aware that I might possibly be getting a fake like I'm I'm in on it. That's the difference because I'm in on it.

I know that right A lot of the jewelry sometimes these big dudes out here be flashing like, okay, it's fake. They know because when you come to l A and we snatch it, you know, I'm saying it's like, well, you only lost five thousand dollars rather than fifty dollars because the necklace was fake. You know, I don't listen the dude outside the liquor store for us. Right here, it's outside the a Little Caesar's Pizza and he post

stuff right outside there with all the new movies. Now, I don't know who got a DVD or Blu ray player in their house still, but if you do, you're gonna get it right there. I know that's a blue leg. You just run the risk of like maybe it's a good one, maybe it's an hour, but either way, keep making his money. I ain't ad at that. Get your money, that's your lek, you know what I'm saying, Like we have an even exchange of services. I'm getting what I wanted,

but I'm getting it fully aware. I am not being deceived. That's the thing like out here, like when you know you're dealing with hustlers. Like I said in the first episode, I just need to decide what's in it for me. And if I know what's in it for me, I just get to make the calculation, like this was worth it. It's fine, but you're not fooling me. I know a hustle, what I see, I do a liquid I see what. I'm not deceived y'all the rolexes you get on the side of the see you don't know that you know

their faith like we're just just it's fine. Oh listen man, not listen. Like I said, transferable skills. You think these people that be buying these really high end art pieces know they're actually worth five million dollars, they know that we're just all in on it. Or no, damn five million dollars. We just all in on it, your little n F T piece, TIMI. We're just all in on it, like they know. That's because that's how the hustle work.

We already know. But as we all know, also there's a sucker born every day, somebody an easy come up. Somebody out there, like I said on the first episode, may or may not know that even in the exchange of goods and services, they may not understand that they are the good in service. And depending on how you feel about that person, sometimes it's funny. I'm sorry, Actually I'm not sorry. Sometimes it's funny because when a con artist gets coned, when a hustler gets hustled. It's a

little funny, especially when the con was incredibly obvious. Here's what you gotta know about narcissists. Check this out this free game here and then we talked about this before with narcissists. A narcissist wants you to recognize their skill. They want you to recognize a real dawn when you see one you supposed to. That's a rap lyric if you don't know that, And because of that, they will

almost always, if you're listening, reveal the play. They're gonna show you their cards because they too arrogant to not, because they want you to recognize they they they game. So if you just listen close enough, they will tell you what it is. You just gotta pay attention and decide again, are what's in it for you? But you gotta play them. You can't just you could call him on it, because but if you call them on it or they're gonna fight back, then it gets worse. Yo,

It's it's you know then then they you know. It's like if you got children, you feel me, if you just confront something heady, you gotta finesse children. It's a boat game. You got to finesse that make the game come to you. You know what I mean? Like you could go, you know, builing a china shop with him, but you're only gonna fight. It's only gonna be a fight. Listen, I got a teenage daughter, you just have. You gotta finesse her. And it's like I'm finessing her for her

own good. You feel me. She at a stage now where it's like she's gonna have to make her own decisions. And I wanted to know how to make her own decisions. But sometimes you gotta take some lumps, you understand what I mean. Look, and I can't, but I can't make her do something that you know, for us is who've lived a little bit, is really obvious. Like, no, what you're gonna do is stupid, you know what I'm saying. But you don't listen. If you met a teenager, you

can't tell him that. But I also don't want them to do stupid things. You gotta finesse it, present options and then walk away with no, I told you sos. But then if they make the right decision on their own, then again you gotta finesse in them. Be like yo, you know what I'm saying, Hey, I'm glad you chose that. You chose that, and they're like, dude, thank you man. Yeah, I thought about it, and you know, it's just I feel like I should. You know, if I would have

done this, it would have been happening. Like damn, that's a good idea. And in your brain you're saying, that's exactly what I told you. But it don't matter, you know, like you gotta finesse. The finesse. That's that's the that's the name of the hustle. You know, that's that's the lick. Like, since you're not gunshooters, you know what I mean, you gotta finesse because you're being finessed. And look, I'm about to put your old game of some of the greatest

finessing of money. Uh that happens every two to four years. Listen, it's these campaign contributions. Y'all been finessed. Now, let's talk if you were unlucky enough to sign up to some sort of email, uh newsletter for a political party or for a politician, if you just didn't you accidentally click to something and they got your email addressed and you've been getting unless you really into like supporting these campaigns, which you know, I'm not telling you not to do.

That's not what I'm saying. I'm just talking about the finesse here. The specific finesse I want to talk about is uh former GOP candidate herschel Walker. Y'all know how bad not only did his supporters get finessed, but he got finessed. That man got hustled so bad that listen, there's money out there to be made. Don't left. Don't ever let nobody tell you ain't no money to be made. I'm about to show you right now at a Goop

just finesse, oh much money out this name. And it's if if he wasn't such a oh lord, if he wasn't such a tap dancer, you know what I mean, I probably wouldn't be uh laughing as hard as I am. Let me not call that man a tap dancer. I don't know. That's that's unfair anyway. So when you get that, you know these emails, you know, requesting money. They're trying to make it as easy as possible. But here's what's crazy about these things. They tell you exactly on the

page where it's going. But you ever thought about that? Where does money go. You see on the news like, hey, man, this campaign raised five million, five billion dollars. Okay, what did they spend it on your flights? Ads? What? Well? You know, volunteer staff? Hold hold up, now, you just said the staff was volunteered, So what does you will paper? You know, I was like worded it. That's that's how much.

And then sometimes you know, if the party decides, like in this, like in the case of herschel Walker, that we really need this man to win because if we don't, we're gonna lose our you know, Senate majority. So that means that the whole party, you know, we got a lot of riding on this man. So that means I need everybody to raise money, you know what I'm saying to help this man's um support. Everybody pitch in man, Every little bit helps, right, Listen, Mike Lee isn't a

Salt Lake tribute? Okay? Mike Lee, Borgeous Owens and Donald Trump they were all raising money for hershell Walker's uh Senate campaign and then kept half of it. There is numerous ways just learn fuzz boy. So look, if you was unlucky enough to be on this man as email lists, right, I'm gonna read, Uh, I'm gonna read from the Salt Lake Tribune. It would say something like this like Utah Senator Mike Lee and Representative Burgess Owens are raising money

on behalf of Herschel Walker ahead of Tuesdays. This was you know, this was December five. This this article, right, you know, runoff against uh Democratic Senator Raphael Warnock warning the Georgia Republican could be the full final bulwark like I said against President Joe Biden's agenda. It is not immediately apparent to donors that half of the money they contribute will go to Walker's campaign while Lee or Owens

keeps the other half. Fundraising email sent by Lee's campaign is meant to look like he's forwarding a plea from Walker, warning that the senator is raising more campaign cash. It says, quote Warnock has been drastically outraising him. We have to pick up the pace. The email from Lee, Rea needs please rush generous contribution and help finish the job in a huge win for Herschel Right. Uh so, so so this is what it is. This is what it says, right like, like this is gonna be a a huge

win for her. So so so we're raising money right, and then the email recipients are sent to the donation uh website right, featuring a massive picture of Walker next to a box of suggested contributions of twenty five and then a disclaimer that he needed donations. Finally, here's a disclaimer will benefit both Lee and Walker, but does not specify how the money will be divided. And then the email from Owens touts Walker as determined to stop the democratic agenda.

America needs fighters like Herschel who will stand up to the left. He's pushing back against the social list policies, running against Biden's hand pick puppets. The email reads right, so check this out. So if you click the link right click here for details or to edit your allocation, Day would not know that half of the contributions will end up in Lea's campaign account instead of the money going to Walker. And if the contributor clicks the bouncing

fifty dollar suggested bonus will automatically go into lead. If someone decides to donate other than the recommended levels, that too will be split fifty fifty unless an extra step to adjust the amounts. Listen, I'm trusting you ain't gonna read, but I'm gonna show you the lick. The lick is. I'm gonna tell you I'm raising for this, but I'm gonna keep some of it. They're gonna tell you what the lick is now, I mean, now, if you're cool what I'm gonna saying. I wonder what hurt the Walker

felt about that? Like, wait, nikky, you're gonna keep too. Now it gets better. Former President Trump was raising money for for Walker's campaign, but you know how much he was keeping. My man kept ninety percent of the money raised for that. Boy. They're telling you, yo, we out here trying to stop the like, so give so so give him, I mean so give me, I mean give him some money, y'all. Listen, there's ways to make money. Boy, Oh man, don't hate the player, hate the game, because listen,

data gave you the game. They'd have told you what they're doing. And if you click that thing. Listen, Oh, that's a sucker born every day. You ain't have to send him that money. Walk a out here, walk out here, that desperate man, you tap dancing for these people? You know how much money they made off you, bro? Like what that's like? Listen, Now, I usually don't drop this type stuff in the middle of this. But listen, this, this, where the this, where the where the where where prop

where Jason Petty come here? Where the where the black panther of sun come in? Where I'm like family. They had their hands all the way up your booty, moving your mouth, telling you what the hell to say, propping you up, having you look like just just mantain and sleep and eat out this mug and making money off your ass. Them boys was eating off you. And I'm just like, I don't understand how you ain't see that

unless you were just okay with it. It looked to me like you were just a good little boy, you know what I'm saying. Dance, monkey dance, That's what it looked like to me. Now, look, I don't know these people personally. I just know. Let me tell you something. I didn't got out of record deals. I didn't got out of book deals. When I didn't looked at the thing and was like, wait, how much you making off me?

And now at least let me decide now maybe he knew not The difference between you and me is like, okay, now listen, when I was on Sony, I knew how much they made off the records, but I turned in the record I wanted. I ain't say what they would what they want. A matter of fact, once they heard my record when I was on Sony, they cut my budget because they was like, want to sail this one. I was like, because I said what I said, but I'm out of that deal. You know I'm not gonna

tap dance for none of y'all. I know the hustle, I know the lit Yeah, the the lique is intellectual property. Y'all making money off stuff you didn't create. I mean, that's that's the entertainment industry. The company makes money off stuff they ain't make. That's why you go independent because I'm like, well, I want to make money off what I made unless I understand that I personally don't have the time, energy, or reach two get my product in the face of enough people to where that will come

back to me. That's I mean, that's why you joined the major, right. I mean, let me be real, That's why I'm more. I heart, I heart has more ears, you have more eyes. I can get my product in front of more people. So I took took the pay cut, you know what I'm saying for it to turn around and make me more. That's what I was saying in the beginning, Like I understood, but the show I'm not gonna give you is the one that got me tap dancing.

I ain't tap dancing. This think a tap dance. That boy Donald Trump kept nin of what he'd been raised, and it's like, look, sucker born every day you could have read the thing. How many y'all ever read the terms of conditions of stuff? You ain't read that ain't now all y'all put your faces into that lens of app You ain't read them terms of conditions they know, but you just decided these pictures are cool enough. You're like, okay, so facial recognition fan. My face already opens my phone.

I'm not like y'all have already got my face. I might as well spend my little eight dollars to get this there, and I get it. You make you make sense. You understood the hustle. That's what I was saying. Before you understood the hustle. I understand what you're doing. You're gonna sell my face to some other AI things to train the AI. Eventually it might come back to me. But when I got to write a turn paper in college and the and the AI know how to write it,

you know, be maybe I don't know. The point I'm trying to make is, bro, you gotta know when you are to lickt And I look, all this made me wonder, Like to me, I was trying to figure out, like why herschel Walker? Why him? You mean to tell me that you the only black conservative? You had this man running Georgia who clearly lived in Dallas, who clearly and obviously has had severe head trauma. That like, you you mean to tell me this was your best choice. Now

it's the best lick, y'all. Gotta follow the castle. It's the best lick. Anyway, don't listen to me. What do I know? I'm just following the leg. But next after this break, I just want to talk to you all about where that money go anyway, Just you should know this stuff. Anyway. All right, I'm gonna get get off herschel back for a little bit, you know, Uh, listen to this music, Matt Mabel. All right, we're back. I'm gonna pull from two places. One it's called Investopedia and

the other is the actual Federal Elections Commission. It's like I mean it's a gang of money to be going through these campaigns. I know you heard the time superpack, you know, dark money. What all these different things mean. But it's like, yo, if somebody loses the election, do you like what happened all that money? You spend it all? Do they ever? Does anyone ever submit? Have you ever followed up looking for like a a profit and law statement, like a spreadsheet like send me to XL where that

money go? What did I do? Or you just take a little tax refund? And you're like, I guess we cool? You know I did my best? Like how like how does any of this? How you are these people accountable for the money you then gave them? Well, here's here's what I say. It's the greatest leg in the world. Is like, don't nobody check you checked? I ain't checked. What do you chubby? What do you do with the

leftover money? Was a few things. Here's the permissible uses for UH from investor PDIA from the campaign you do candidate campaign committees right, These are official committees ran by the campaign and their campaign team. The Federal Electric Committee has our commission has ruled has rules in place to control how money is spent after the candidate bows out and the election is officially over. Right, So here's some

permissible uses. You donate to charities, right, as long as the candidate does not receive any compensation from the organizations before it is spent, uh, and the donation is not used by the charity to benefit the candidate. Now you want to know one of the reasons why uh, Trump is facing federal charges. You just heard it there. It is number two. A donation of a maximum of two thousand dollars to another federal candidate, right, and a donation

to a state or local candidates. They're all subject by law. You could do a gift donations of a nominal value on special occasions to anyone besides the candidates family. So I could give some of that money to like as gifts to other people, as long as it's not you know, my family. But then there's unlimited transfers to local, state, national or political committees like the Democratic or Republican national community. Meaning you could just give it to the you give

it to the big pot. It's almost like, you know, you run twenty racks back to the good like a lot of streets run like this too. It's like you make your money. That's cool, right, Uh, but I know with the Latino you know, with the Mexican games, you gotta run that money back to the everybody pay taxes, you gotta run the money back to the Mexican mafia. That's just how it works, you know what I'm saying. Uh. And it's in turn is supposed to benefit everyone. Like

that's that's the Uh, that's the idea. Um. Or you create a leadership pack to back other candidates and a political agenda, and the critics say these can be used as slush funds. Have you heard the phrase before? Slush funds? Um? Slush funds just have much less oversight, right, Um, But here you go. A slush fund, if you don't know what that is, is a summer money that is set aside to reserve, that is kept for no particular reason

or purpose. A lack of stated purpose and opacity regarding where this couns funds come from has led the slush funds as viewed negatively as a platform potentially finance elicit or unethical activities. Slush Funds have been exposed as being used to bribe or influence or high transparencies are high trains sections or to acquire non public information or other services. So a slush that's your mattress money. Slush fund is the money that's in the freezer. Okay, ain't no tracking

of it, you know what I'm saying. Don't nobody know it's there. It's off the books. I don't have to explain it. It's my miscellaneous. Now. I remember when I first downloaded quick books and it was a section because I was trying to do my own papers, you know, because I didn't know how to, like, I couldn't afford having nobody else to do my taxes and nothing like that.

Right when I first started being propaganda, uh professionally, and it was there was a line item there called miscellaneous and I was like, oh, you mean you mean the tax man accepts miscellaneous because the rest of it was like, you know, office supplies, travel, travel meals, meals, and entertainment utilities, charitable contributions, and then one said miscellaneous. I was like, I can have him and I can claim this. I could claim miscellaneous as an expense. Yeah, well, hell, here's

twenty tho dollars and miscellaneous you're I'm saying. I was like, I gotta tell you what this is? Hell, yeah, how do you make this money miscellaneous? What you spend it on? Miscellaneous? I didn't know. I know that was option. So the slush fund is when you, FINNI do some shady ship. That's it, just what it seemed like, because you're just telling me, like I could raise twenty thousand, thirty thousand, forty thousand dollars of taxpayers money that they gave to me.

They're getting a tax rebate for that. I ain't win. We could throw it into a pack, right, you're the third super pac Basically that's everybody pay taxes into this one pack because the party decided that this situation is more important than that situation. So we're gonna get money from this pack right to uh to make this money. But then some of that pack money going to something else called a slush fund. Like we're saying, this is the just in case ship, just in case we can't

convince somebody. I can't have on the books where that dollars go. Oh, I just bribe this Uh this judge, you can't put that on your taxes because no miscellaneous, all just money from this sludge one? What do you do with where that money comes from I don't know. I had a homeboy when I was in high school, and maybe maybe I told you all this early and politics my homeboy, I'm not gonna say I was gonna say his name, but I'm glad I stopped. But he

used to just always have cash on it. To this day, I have no idea wire how and it'd be big bills. The sophomores in high school. He pulling out fifty dollar bills hunting out and he didn't like. I was like, yo, you do you you sell drugs? Nick? He was like, oh, man, don't worry about it. Why you always got cash? Man't worry about it. Dog, if I tell you how to kill you, you y'all wanna talk a bell? And he was just buy us, just buy food, Like why do you always have just he just did if it was

a slush fund himself. And I looked. After a while, we stopped asking, you know, I'm saying like, eventually you learned, just look, don't ask, you know what I mean, because you you really don't want to know the answer. So these but listen, slush fund legal, you can do that,

totally allowed. Now what are no knows you can't use money personally like household mortgages, you know, salary payments to the candidates family, right, unless they can provide that they did a bona fide service for you know, the free like if they really really worked for you, then you can give him that money. Right. You could also do refunds, you know. Uh, I remember when Jed Bush ran he um, he was alleged to say he was gonna get back all that money because you know you ain't win, right.

But the ultimate question is can they keep the money themselves? And the answer is no, you are not allowed to keep the money yourself. Contributions must be used during the campaign to pay related expenses. They are not intended for personal use, and money that is left over after a candidate drops out or once the election is over must be used to pay off debts. Funds can also be

used for other purposes. For instance, a candidate may donate, like we said, to an unlimited amount of federal, state, local political UH committees, or they may be or they may refund them to donors. So it's very possible that you, you know what I'm saying, you gave to Bernie when Bernie dropped out, went to Joe just it's just you know, you're Elizabeth Warren. Money went to Hillary. I don't know, like it's possible because I don't argue tracking your fight

I was, I'm not tracking and fed us. There are numerous ways. And lastly, one thing they could do is they could just hold on to it until they run again. Uh So you just gotta put it in some sort of bank account, let us sit over there until it's time for you to run again, or you can give it to the homies. But either way, that's that's that's

where your money goes. Now, when you hear people being held on trial or you know, arrested for misallocation of funds, you know, for donations for their candidacy, it's when this stuff gets murky. So if the superpack you donated to you already have a guaranteed of that money for to go back to you. The nonprofit you just contributed to

is your own. You know what I'm saying. If the candidate that's getting the money that you're about to give to is essentially gonna circle that money right back to you, like that's look, you cheat either way. Listen, these fools really didn't figure out how to hit these lips and like I said, you being a conscientious consumer. It's not so much that you're being kind to hustled, because in some ways we all are the question. I just want every voter contributor to ask themselves what is in it

for me? Who? Politics? Yo? Yo? This thing right here was recorded by Me Propaganda and East Low Spoil Heights, Los Angeles, California. This thing was mixed, edited, mastered, and scored by the one and only Matt Olsowski. Y'all check out this fool's music. I mean it's in executive produced by Sophie Lichterman for Cool Zone Media. Man, and thank you for everybody who continue to tap in with us.

Make sure you leaving reviews and five star ratings and sharing it with the homies so we could get this thing pushed up in the algorithm and listen. I just want to remind you these people is not smarter than you. If you understand city living, you understand politics. We'll see you next week.
