Good morning angela Ye, Damon's Charlomagne,

the god piece of the planet. Guess what day it is? Guess what day it is? Yes, it's Wednesday. Miller to work weekod morning, Yes it is. Hey, you guys had a great day yesterday. I was in the airport for a while yesterday. I guess a lot of bad weather because I was in the airport for about four hours yesterday trying to get back sounds familiar store was passing through Florida. But it was good. I still I just

went to sleep, That's all I did. So I was doing this Financially Clean panel at the brooklyn Borough Hall with Sean Linda. So he does his eight week course which people can take online also, and it was him and the Brooklyn Borough president, Eric Adams. So I was there yesterday, people talking about their financial journeys. It was nice. It was a packed building. Okay, that's pretty cool. That's pretty cool. Now tomorrow or today, we have a congresswoman

joining us this morning. Right, Oh, not just any congresswoman. We got one four for the squad, Ayanna Presley. Damn it, all right, she'll be here this morning. Yeah, it's very excited for that. I was watching a great documentary last night too on Netflix. I was watching King and the Wilderness. It's a documentary on Martin Luther King Junior that documents

the last eighteen months of his life. Oh my god, man, so amazing because it's got a lot of never before seeing footage and put it from his funeral, and it just shows the resistance that Martin Luther King Jr. Received the last eighteen month. But not just from white people and the powers that be that you didn't like what he was doing, but from his own people, black people. Oh my god. It was so good man. Everybody should watch that. Kings of the Wilderness. All right, Well, let's

get the show cracking. Front page News what we're talking about. Well, let's talk about something that happened overnight in New York. And this is gonna be a first, but it's allowed for hundreds of child sex of these claims to be opened up. Okay, all right, we'll get into that next keeping lock just to Breakfast slogan Morning morning. Everybody is DJ Envy Angela Yee, Charlomagne. The guy we are to

breakfast club is getting some front page news when we're starting. You, Well, just overnight at twelve or one am, people were allowed to start filing these suits. Now these are New Yorkers, This is just in New York. These are for New Yorkers who are molested or sexually abused as children. So a lot of them have been waiting for years or even decades for their day in court. So the way the law works here is you have to file a suit no later than age twenty three for when you

were a child. If it's after that, then it's a statute of limitations and you're not allowed to file a suit anymore anybody. So a lot of the people they are suing are Catholic priests, people who abuse them when they were kids. And they said also the Boy Scouts of America were named in five suits already. So since this went into law at midnight, two hundred legal claims have been filed already across the states. And there's abuses of many different descriptions. Some of these suits are filed

by accusers who have never come forward before. Some of them will target alleged abusers that have never previously been publicly named. Other cases are people who went to court in the past, but to other cases dismissed because of the statute of limitations. Like I said, you have to be under twenty three to be able to file. But from what they've been seeing and statements from some of these firms, they said, it looks like there's going to be about two to three thousand lawsuits filed in the

coming year, so they can sue the actual church. Now yes, wow, okay, a lot of those places of business is gonna have to fold because there's no way they can uphold and stand all those lawsuits and pay for attorneys and all that. The teachers, the increase those like some of those state funded organizations of the Boy Scouts, Yeah, absolutely all right. Now, Illinois has just become the first state to require insurance companies to cover EpiPen injectors. I didn't know insurance didn't

cover that. So you know, when you have an allergy or another serious allergic reaction to something, you have to have an EpiPen just in case. Yeah, yeah, some insurances cover it, but most doesn't. Well, now they're requiring that insurance companies covered, and Illinois is the only state that's done that so far. So that's true because if you can't afford it and your child does a serious allergy, should they just not be able to have an EpiPen?

That doesn't make sense, all right. In Newark, they've been having a lot of issues with their lead contamination in the water, so they also gave out a small number of filters. Well, some of the filters that they gave out, they they are supposed to remove lead, and they found out that these filters were not functioning as effectively as expected,

so that water is still contaminated. So in response to that, they started giving out drinking water and I guess the bottle water is being distributed to certain residents at four different locations in Newark. So right now, according to the mayoraz Baraka and the Governor Phil Murphy. They put out a joint statement. They said, the city is expanding testing a filter drinking water and they are working with the

filters manufacturer to determine the scope of the situation. Access to safe drinking water is critically important, and they said, we take health risks associated with lead and drinking water very seriously. But you can imagine people are very upset. Yeah, they had this problem for a while, and it's crazy that they haven't fixed it as yet, because it's a bit over a year that they had well two years actually that they had the problem with the lead, and

I figured they would have fixed it by now. Yeah, they gave out the filters, but then it turns out some of the filters aren't working as effectively and some of that water is still contaminated. Flame Michigan is like catchup, guys, all right, how long they've had contaminated? All right? Now? Advertisers are dropping Tucker Carlson's show and Fox News after he said that whole issue about a white supremacy being

a hoax. Check it out. But the whole thing is a why if you were to assemble a list a hierarchy of concerns or problems, this country faces, where would white supremacy be on the list? Run up there with Russia. Probably It's actually not a real problem in America. White supremacy, that's the problem. This is a hoax, just like the Russia hoax. It's a conspiracy theory used to divide the country and keep a hold on power. Well made them draw the line at that? I don't know, but I

guess the people got very outraged about that. Obviously for him it's not a problem because he's white, so I wouldn't be a problem for him, by the way, saying people telling you that Russia interference as a hoax, of detaining people that are telling you white supremacy as a hoax? So what should that tell you about Russian interference? So right now, don John Silver's Hello Fresh. So far a lot of people have dropped them from advertising, and there are no longer running ads on his show and the

sleep appcom. They tweet that the brand is no longer advertising on the show as well. All right, that is your front page news. All right, thank you, miss kee. Now get it off your chest.

Yeah, the next week he was supposed to get it out. So when he got paid, it went from you know, a check for short so from what stories to another.

Yes, let's talk about somebody who's upset about fake friends and says they had to cut off about twenty people last year because they were stealing, sleeping with boyfriends behind her back, being abusive alcoholics. All of that, All right, we'll get into the next keeping locked us

to Breakfast Club. The morning the Breakfast Club, it's about Angela Ye the breakfast Club. Well, Trina was thrust into the middle of some controversy and that's because her an R Reginald Saunders had some things to say about Nicki Minads that weren't so great, just basically that Nikki didn't

help promote the single baps that she had with Trina. Well, I don't know if Trina is aware that this was going to happen, if it was really your problem with her, But here's what you had to say on her own life. First of all, everybody that knows me knows anything that I gotta say, I will say it and address it. I don't need anybody to speak for me. Second of all, everything that I have to say, I will address it tomorrow. So catch me live and I will say it one

time and one time. And Trina don't really be beefing with people like that, not at all. She's pretty cool with everybody, so She'm about to stop beefing with nik though. Yeah, I don't think so, but who knows, you know. According to her A and R, he said, this isn't the first time Nicki Minaj has pulled this stunt, and trust me, it's cool. I can't get over how fake people can

be for a little fame, Lights and followers. When everyone tried to warm me, I still gave her the benefit of the dad and her cousin who you know from loving hip hop Miami. Bobby Lights also went on Instagram Live and said that Trina is a nice person who will continue to be friends with Nikki despite being upset. So everybody else is talking, Trina hasn't said anything yet, so she's going to talk about it today. Well, people

will really be taking them social media post. Serious, boy, you better post your friends stuff if y'all doing something together. Wasn't that the reason why it wasn't just a post? I guess there was no video for it and other issues too, so who knows, But maybe Trina's hasn't got a problem at all all right? Amber Rose. In the meantime, speaking about people being fake is calling out fake friends,

and she also has canceled the slut walk. She said, let me tell you this, if you meet a loaner, no matter what they tell you, it's not because they enjoy solitude. It's because they have tried to blend into the world before and people continue to disappoint them. She goes on to say, so me, I stopped being friends

with about twenty people last year. I've had friends steel jewelry and money from me, sleep with my boyfriend behind my back, male friends lying and telling people we were sleeping together, alcoholic drug addic friends, abusive friends, toxic personality friends. And I even had a friend called Social Services on me twice for no effing reason, only to sue me for calling her and cursing her out when I found out it was her. Wow. She goes on to talk about it, and she said, the funny thing is I

never snitched publicly on anyone. Ain't that Some Ish people may not know this, but I'm extremely unproblematic. I don't start fights, I don't do drugs. And you know she does have a baby on the way in an amazing man. She said, she's not having her slut walk this year. Sorry, I just have to protect my energy and peace. I will say, oh, that's somewhat true. But I like being a loaner because I like being alone. I do not

need people. I will go sit in my backyard to sit on my porch and my deck all day by myself or with a good book and not give a damn about nobody. It's not because I got scoring by the world. It's just like I like being alone. Yeah, I love being alone. I think when you're around people all the time every day, you like you enjoy the time that you have by yourself. But I don't like to always be alone. And when you talk all day for a goddamn living, you don't you like to sit around?

And she'd say nothing, I love being well, I wouldn't say alone alone, but I love being with my kids and my kids and my wife. That's not alone all day loan that's not no outside world, no friends. It just me and my wife and my kids. I love being with them too, But no, I like being alone sometimes, but alone I prefer to be with them. I like to have my alone time because I feel like there's people around me all day every day. Daddy, going in the backyard to read a book. I'll be back all right.

Mary J blies. They are saying, oh's more than one million dollars in back taxes, according to Bosset, and they filed alan against her. So I'm sure she's gonna take care of it. But she's on the road with not as they're doing their Royalty tour, which wraps up in September. I'm so sick of Iris bothering Mary J Blige. Yeahs should not have to play taxes in this world as Mary J Blige got damn it. Yeah, you gotta get your accounting right. Always has anybody don't play? Has anybody's diaris?

Ever heard My Life? What's the full one? One? Have you never gotten joyed from seeing Mary J Blige dance on stage? Leave that lady alone? At okay? Album? Still making money? About? How about? How about this? I'm just playing with your IRUs. And speaking of music, Snoop Dogg hasn't built his new track list for I Want to Thank Me, so you can pre order that. It comes out on Friday, So if you want to get that new Snoop Dogg album I Want to Thank Me. Um,

I don't see a problem with that. Yeah, we don't celebrate ourselves enough. Man, self care is important. Thank yourself sometime. Goddamn, And Drake has broken another record. He is the first solo artist with two hundred Billboard place him in sil congratulations to him. He has his ninth number one Billboard two hundred albums this week. We told you about that care packets with all those previously unreleased songs, So now he is the first solo artist ever with two hundred

Billboard placements. Congratulation. Very stranged to watch a rapper have this kind of run. This is really like watching Tom Brady in the NFL. Yeah, yeah, yeah, Six out of the seventeen songs on care Package is why he's now the one with that record. It's just very strange to see an artist have this level of success and hotness for ten years. Scrape, Yeah, Like that's that's very rare.

You can think about everybody who's done it in pockets, you can think about the Ja Rules and Nellies and Dan mex Is in the fifty cents, but this guy is really maintained that for ten years. And they said he's back in the studio now, so I'm sure he's working on another one. And you know he's the only other and he's a solo artist. I said, he's only solo artists with over two hundred billboard placements. But do you know who has more than him? Who the Glee cast?

They have two hundred and seven placements. He has two hundred and three. Don't know about them white people. Yeah, but that's crazy. I would never have even thought that. All right, Well, I'm Angela Yee and that is your rumor report. All right, thank you machine. Now we got from a page was coming up. Yes, we are going to be talking about Jeffrey Epstein and what happened with the two guards that were assigned to watch him. All right, we'll get into that next. Keep a loctice to Breakfast Club.

Good morning, Good morning, everybody is DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlomagne. The guy we are to Breakfast Club is getting some front page news. What we start, Let's start with the two guards who are assigned to watch Jeffrey Epstein have been placed on leave. So as you all know by now, he has allegedly killed himself in jail, and the guards that were supposed to watch him there were all kinds of issues. For instance, they were supposed to check on him every thirty minutes, and they did not do that.

They weren't done for several hours. So now those guards have been placed unadministrative leave, and I'm sure they're still investigating what exactly happened there. The guard gotta pay vacation for getting the job done, and the warden actually has also been temporarily resigned reassigned as well. A man, all right? Walmart has removed about a thousand items third party items from their website, and those items are anything that has to do with actual guns and violence. But they still

sell guns, Yes they do. Man, I hate America, But what's wrong with them? Why do they care about symbols? Everybody cares about symbols a change instead of actual real change. And I bet you if people applauding that stupid movement, aren't they I don't understand it because they definitely still sell guns. I never understood why though any type of merchandise that glorifies violence. Oh, but they still sell guns. Yo,

we are so in love with symbols a change. All you gotta do is give somebody a symbol of actual change instead of actual change. No, a symbol of change instead of actual change and they'll be happy. Let me ask you a question, because one more, of course down here does doesn't sell guns, but in itself they sell hand guns as well as it's just rifles just hunting. I don't know. I've never bought a gun from Walmart. I just remember seeing like rifles in there and never

paid attention. By the way, they had been getting a lot of pressure to take the guns out of their physics, but they are still selling guns and also pro gun t shirts as well on their site. So and this week they pulled displays of violent video games from their stores. Why should Walmart? But they still sell the games because

everybody's pull the displays for why Walmart? Why should the Walmart in particular, Styffa, I say this because you got so many young kids that go through Walmart that see the guns and they can almost glorify it and have it. But if I don't want my kids to see a gun, if I want to purchase a gun, I purchased my gun from a gun store where I have to physically go with. You know, some kids are not even allowed

in guns. Walmart do what they're doing, and if you stop selling selling toy guns, they should stop selling movies that have guns in them, Like, what do you mean? This is America, You're gonna see guns everywhere. Yeah, but but you can't see the gun that's in the movie. You just see the cover of the movie. You don't know a big ass rightful in the car too. I'm sure they don't have that no more. I'm I'm sure they don't have they got no more. I'm serious. I

don't think they out fun chasing the vascally wabbit. Yeah, but Bunny on the cover of a thing, I don't think they would have that. Man and these kids play, These kids played grant that botto with guns, call the Duty, Got guns a fault night, got guns? Like stopped. So the America guns are as American as Americas. You can't

get more American than that American and guns all right. Now, drug tests and background texts are becoming less important, and employers are saying it's because America has a talent crunch and it's across all age groups. So now some companies are actually reducing hiring requirements like the background checks, the amount of experience, the amount of education that they want, and they actually have to pay more, and they are

asking for less because they need more talent. They said, a lot of people just haven't been they haven't been able to fill some of these jobs. A lot of these companies are in a situation where they can't compete on wages, so they're trying to find more creative ways to get talented people to come in and apply for those jobs. So I'm stoke confused. So they're not doing drug texts as they need the people with talent do drugs. Well,

you know that sometimes it's very strict hiring requirements. So imagine you feel a drug test for whatever reason, you smoked a little weed. You know, now that might not matter anymore. They might not even do drug tests, but you know, and sometimes things pop up in the background check. Yeah, that shouldn't prohibit you from getting a job, especially we we shouldn't prohibit you in twenty and nineteen, especially being a you know weed as ever you got them with

a friend of mine. Os a staff and company where they actually get people jobs. But they was like to turnaround rate is so fast because people only work like a week and then they do something to fit up. They're late, they don't come in, they smell like weed. It was like it's so hard to keep people keep

a job because people don't take it seriously. And also some people if you don't have a bachelor's you know, it used to be if you don't have at least associate or bachelor's degree or an NBA, sometimes people won't hire you. But now a lot of people are dropping those requirements as well. Look, we own a brick and mortar store at the Juices for Life store, and we're always having to deal with staffing issues and hiring people

and all of that. So people end up going back to school, they get another job, they're late all the time, they fall asleep at work. All different same kind of things can happen. It's crazy. You can't even get into radio no more without being in school. I mean, you can't get an internship. That's all you can get intership. You can't ever get an internship. That's what I'm saying. It's different now. We didn't have the internships back in the day when we got it. That's when that was

my whole point, because I damn sure it wouldn't be here. Yeah, I mean I never even worked in radio at all before I did this. I never did an internship. I just sat off as a mixer. A mixer, you can't even get an internship unless you're in school. So how do you get an entry point in the radio. You can work in a different department, like in sales or as a receptionist and then transition over, as a lot of people have done. Still do that, definitely, I know

people have just done that in other markets. Well, if you want a job where you can come in late smelling like wet and not get in trouble for it, radio is the job for yapping, got us fire stop it? All right? Well that is your front page news. Don't listen to him? What the party? Don't? All right? Well, thank you, miss she. Now, when we come back, we have congresswomen, Congresswoman Ayana Presley Presley, Baby, when we come back, one fourth for the squad, all right, so don't move.

It's to Breakfast Club. Good morning, the Breakfast Club. Yeah, it's the world most dangerous morning show, The Breakfast Club. Sh alamein and God angeli Ye. We have a very special guest in the building. She's a member of the House repping Massachusetts. One fourth of the squad is here, Yana Presley. What's happening? Good morning. So we are very honored to have you with us. Yeah. I think about

the squad often. I lift y'all up in prayer because I don't think people understand the courage it takes for someone in your position to speak out against the celebrity in chief, the president of the United States of America. Where does that courage come from? Well, I first I just want to say, you know, so, what did you call him the celebrity in chief? Celebrity in chief? Yeah, that's that's appropriate. I call him the occupant because he's

just occupying space the squadder. Yeah. I mean it's like, you know, we went from a president who's saying amazing grace to someone that displays zero of it. He does not embody the integrity, the empathy, the compassion, and so I will never referred him as the president, not because I dishonored the office, but because he does. And as far as any courage, you know, I have to tell

just the whole truth here. I am so grateful for the solidarity and the love and support and the prayers and the covering that people have extended to us throughout this journey, and in particular during those that intense three week period, it really targeted assaults and hateful, you know, rhetoric.

But I felt that I was really sitting in a position of privilege that we could garner that level of support in the face of the injustices that everyday people are living with, and including in that same weekend, on that day that Eric Garner's family have been denied justice. And so you know, ultimately this is hateful rhetoric, and I would never give short shrift to the danger that hateful rhetoric puts people in. You know, it is why El Paso happened. And we know hateful rhetoric also leads

to hate policies, and those threats are real. But at the end of the day, we will built for this. You know, I think representable cause your Quarantez and Omar and Salib and I would argue really any woman and certainly any woman of color. What we're doing, this is the role that we have played in movement building and ushering in you know, social movements throughout history. We shake the table, we call into question, we seek justice, we

tell the truth, we preserve democracy. So I think we're just honoring that long to tradition and you know, for me, it's directly influenced by the example of my mother. May she rest in powers. So I don't know anything else. And you also have been getting death threats, so I know that has to be really tough because you don't know how credible any of it is, where it's coming from, and disappointing to see how people that you might consider this is the United States, Like why is there so

much hate here? And so all of that I think can weigh on somebody. Sure it takes a toll, but let me just say this, like I didn't think. So I'm new to Congress, but not government, right, So I served on the Boston City Council for eight years and then I was an aide on the federal level for sixteen years. I'm forty five, right, So when all this but when all this first started happening, and you know, folks was claiming me as a millennial, my husband was like,

go with it. You know, I'm like a whole grown ass woman. But um, you know, but but but I received that. But the thing is is that, um, you know, at the end of the day, I didn't think that my experienced as a marginalized person, as a black woman suddenly changes when you have a comma and an elected title after your name. So and again I'm not new

to this. So I was an aide on the federal level sixteen years, four years in the House to former Congressman Joseph P. Kennedy the second and then eleven years with Senator John Kerry, and then again in the City Council for eight So I've been, you know, on my grind for a long time. It's now on the death

threat front. Let me just I'll just argue that I don't think any leader, if you are really disruptive in the pursuit of progress and justice, if you were challenging conventional thought and wisdom, is not going to be subject to death threat. So to me, in my striving to be a leader, and certainly being a black woman, that is just part of the course. It comes in. It's part for the course. I mean, you know, I serve only oversight a reform committee, and one of the subcommittees

I serve on is civil rights and civil liberties. And you know, one of the things that I went at the FBI really hard about was this designation they created a black identity extremist, which to me is just another excuse to profile and survey black vote because you could argue that someone affiliated with Black Lives Matter is a black I didn't extreme this. And this category was created

because of six tragic shooting. So again I want to honor the fact that there were six lives that were lost, but the only common denominator in those six separate tragic shootings is that the perpetrators were all black, And this was created. But yet in greater incidence of domestic terrorism and white supremacy, such a category was not created. So I say all that to say that you know, we pose a threat, and when you pose a threat and when you make people uncomfortable, you're going to be subject

to those kinds of death threats. But I'm not afraid because one, I know God's got me. But two, I'm much more concerned about the fear and fragility and the real hurt that everyday people that I represent the master

chieset at seventh, that they're really feeling and experiencing. What are the things that have happened into y'all that we don't see, though, I it's got to be things behind the scenes that have happened that you have to say, Okay, this is definitely a different time and a different climate. I don't know. I think the part of this work that people might not get it is that it can be very lonely. So even when you have sisterhood and

when you have community, it's very lonely. And I also just want to say that, you know, all of these women, I have incredible respect, admiration, an adoration for you know, we share a unique kinship because we have walked a very unique path. It is a blessing and a burden to be the first anything, and so they're very this dichotomy of joy and pain that we carry. We did not know each other before we were elected to Congress. I had met Alex once before because both she and

I were challenging incumbents. Represent him to leave and Omar ran in with an open seat. But they are first, you know, trailblazing, you know, in their in their own right. But Alex and I challenge twenty year incumbents. So we actually first met here in New York, but prior to

other than that, we had had no interaction. And then we came to Washington, DC for freshman orientation and it's literally there's so many things about this experience that I would liken too to college, even though I didn't finish getting my degree, but including the freshman fifteen, it is very like college in that way. But so we were there for new member orientation and they asked to do an interview with the four of us, because each of

us represented first. We did this interview and at the end of the interview, they said, oh, let's take a picture because they thought it was a really interesting visual contrast that behind us were the paintings of all these white men. So the four of us took this photo and then you know, Alex said, oh, what should we call it? And she just hashtaged its squad goals, which we all know is a very popular hashtag, you know,

on social media, and it went viral. You know, So I know that there are folks that would like to fashion us as some sort of like we move as a unit, we're joined at the hip, we're some like insurgent gang virus of socialism and radicalism. You gotta be careful in this club, but you know, But but what it was a moment that then why did they go viral?

Because it was resonant. It was deeply resonant because we just visually, UM defied represented progress and it was and it was just a resonant, you know thing, and so UM, you know we are again. We have this kinship, we forged this bond, but we have distinct voices, lived experiences, different districts. You know, we're not a monolith, right, all right, we have more with congress Women Ayanna Presley when we come back, so don't move. It's to breakfast Club, Good

morning morning. Everybody is DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlemagne the guy we all to breakfast Club were still kicking in with congress Women Ayana Presley. I was gonna ask you, sometimes we get really tired of talking about Trump, right, there's so many different things that he's done, that he said, and so many things that we're seeing the results of.

Like I know, we've been talking about this um whole public assistance for immigrants, and if you apply for that, then you can't get your green card or your visa if you have to get like Medicaid or UM or food stamps and things like that. Section eight, yeah, section eight. So I wanted to ask you, how do you stop yourself from getting numb about certain situations like we see these families being ripped apart. We see kids crying, they can't find their parents. We don't know where there's this

young girl's dad is. And when that happens and Donald Trump is saying I'm not a racist. Do we call everything that Donald Trump says and does out or I know, people get exhausted, like having to hear it because every day is something different on Twitter, every day is something

different in the media. So how do you balance like making sure you call those things out, but also just sometimes you're like, I mean that's just who he is when you were talking about it, Yeah, yeah, I mean, you know it is fatiguing definitely, But I think that he does these things intentionally as a distraction. This is like a completely corrupt, callous, chaotic administration, and you know he wants to distract us from that. It is fatiguing. I think we have to continue to call it out.

But when it comes to things like public charge, you know, at this point, it's like nothing is surprising. It's part for the course. This is the coordinated strategic attack against immigrants from the immigration status question, from HUD's rule that mixed immigration status families cannot live in public housing by the way most people are in mixed immigration status families. You have TPS holders, doctor recipients, asylum seekers in one family,

the Muslim ban public charge. You know, the cruelty is the point. And you know, I did go to the border. I urge every member of Congress to go to the border and to bear witness to the trauma that we experience there and that I observed. But it's also important to remember that we have been here before. Right, so this is a shock to our system. Children being ripped from the arms of their mothers and families being separated

into How dehumanizing and how demoralizing all that is. But we know the separating families is one of the most effective tools of oppression. We saw this with indigenous people on reservations. We saw this at the auction blocks during slavery, and we see it now and so it is fatiguing, it is exhausting, but you know, we just have to continue to do the work because people are counting on us, and I will not further embolden a racist and rogue agency.

This is why I do believe that you know, ICE does need to be abolished in and defunded, and so we have to be too prong. What can we do as citizens? Are you kidding me that you could do it every day on this platform? You educate people, you empowered. Look, this is not just the work of Congress. This is the time for the uprising. A bold activist leadership from every corner. No one person, no four members of Congress can defeat the hate, the draconian and oppressive, xenophobic policies

coming out of this administration every single day. Absolutely, and so only a movement can really be in affront to that. And this is why throughout my campaign I said the people closest to the pain should be the closest to the power, driving and informing the policy making. This is not work that we do alone. This is work that we do in symbiotic partnership with community. Like my work on gun violence, that work has got to be survivor led,

victim centered, and offender sensitive. Because of the dichotomy of community based violence where we're dealing with both the highest incident of both perpetrator and victim and often living next door to one another. That work has got to be done in partnership with community. Otherwise the solutions are not sustainable and they're not effective. I saw you on Trevor. You said that it's bills that can be passed tomorrow that can save lives when it comes to guns. What

are some of those bills? I mean, like I said, you know, New Zealand they had a mass shooting and shortly thereafter they passed the assault weapons ban. We could do that tomorrow right when we could do a universal background check, while we could do a federal gun buy back program. I mean, there's just too many guns. For every one hundred people, for every one hundred people, there are one hundred and twenty guns, So there are more

guns than people. And for as long as you have that many guns, then you have a higher incident of accidental shootings of children at home, a higher incident of suicides which no one is talking about. Again, I convene the first hearing the History of the Congressional Oversighted Reform Committee on Childhood Trauma and Veteran suicide. You suicide, pharmer suicide. This stuff is through the roof, and so you decrease those numbers when people don't have easy access to a gun.

So and the other thing is, again you know all of this violence is it's interconnected. You know. We also know that domestic terrorists or perpetrators of violence often have the overlay of also being abusive towards women. So the other thing that we could pass is we could close the boyfriend loophole. I remember doing the Violence Against Women Act reauthorization debate my Republican colleagues from across the aisle, We're screaming, don't support this. They're coming for our guns.

It's like, well, if you've abused women, you're right, yeah, we are coming for your guns. Like, don't make this a violation of the Second Amendment, you know, So I am. There's just too many guns. There's too many guns, and

the access is you know, there's just two. But the other thing for in terms of community based violence, we have got to address straw purchasing and gun trafficking, so you know, universal background checks, a federal ban on assault weapons, these things would immediately and dramatically reduce the number of lives lost the gun violence. But then the other thing is the Center for Disease Control they need to study

the root causes of gun violence. A lot of it is a mental health issue, Like I hear a lot of people say a lot of different reasons why they think there's gun problems in America. I don't think nobody's wrong. I think that you're right, it's too many guns on the street. I think it's mental health issues. I think it's the glorification of violence in America through video games and movies. I think it's all those things. Well, it's also poverty. I mean, I remember it might have been Detroit.

I'm not sure, but there was a gun buyback program where they exchange groceries for your gun, and it was one of the most successful. And I think that right there shows the link between, you know, poverty and lack

of opportunity and increased violence. But you know, we also have to be careful for our messaging because I certainly don't want to in any way perpetuate the idea that everyone that is a low income report is predisposed to violently offend everyone battling mental illness is predisposed, because that isn't the truth. But the Center for Disease Control needs to study this because if they can study influenza, then they should be studying the root causes of gun violence

is a public health crisis and epidemic. And again, the issue that I'm really banging the du drum on in partnership and in coalition with families who've been robbed of loved ones due to gun violence, and please say robbed. We don't lose people, we're robbed of them. Is we have to address the rights of survivors, and that's one of the things that I'm working on is developing a

survivor's bill of rights. So you have families that are being robbed of loved ones because of gun violence, and then there's no justice, and so that is something we have to address. And then we need the wraparound supports to support people in their healing. Not only do we need justice for survivors, but healing. Do you know, for every person that we are robbed of of gun violence,

a minimum of twenty people are impacted. So you're talking about trauma that does not immediately manifest right So right now, if there's a mass shooting or something therapist or there's community based violence, if you're lucky and have a resources and have socio emotional wellness support, it's like a school nurse, like a social worker, like a psychotherapist. They will have interventions for the first seventy two hours, but a lot

of trauma is not immediately presented. So like, as an example, they did a survey on asthma because our communities are just before the impacted by asthma, and they asked parents, Okay, how bad is your child's asthma on a scale of one to ten. And this was in Roxbury in my district, and it's and parents said that their child's asthma was like a three or four, but when they were tested

it was nine or ten life threatening. You know, you just you don't even realize that you're traumatized and how bad things are or how unhealthy, because these things do become normal. Imagine that your child has life threatening asthma and you think it's at a three or four. So that's that's how we treat anxiety. Absolutely, we treat depression. We treat all of those things like they're just normal. Like you just post to feel like that, especially if

you grew up in a certain environment. All right, we have more with Congresswoman Ayanna Presley's you Don't Move, It's to Breakfast Club, Good Morning Morning. Everybody is DJ Envy, Angela Yee Shalomagne the guy we are to Breakfast Club were still kicking in with congress women Ayana Presley Chalomagne. How can we continue to tell people to vote in

twenty twenty if we know our election is compromised? Like, why aren't people making more of a big deal about the fact that there was Russian interference in our elections? Why isn't that a big issue? Mich McConnell blocked an election security bill after learning about all this Russian interference, Like why isn't this a big deal? Yeah? I mean again, I'm grateful for the platform and that you continue to

raise this issue. And you know, the thing that does worry me about educating people about this, um, is that we don't want to suppress the vote. You don't want to stay on that voting because because because they already. Of course that happens in many ways, but I'm talking about in our psychology, you know, incentivizing us to stay home. Um,

I think it does the opposite. I think if we let people know that there was Russian interference in the twenty sixteen election, it makes people feel who went out and voted that golden Okay, But but I but otherwise, and I'm bummed because I didn't bring Mitch McConnell's phone number in here because I would give it to everybody right now because you're right, you know, we could have passed election protection and that is something that should be

a bipartisan issue. That's fundamental to our democracy. Why is Nancy Pelosi freed in peace? Donald Trump? I don't know, Uh, you know, you'd have to talk to her about that. But white it could be. If it doesn't work, it might be a terrible blow. I think some people see it. I think some people so to me, this is bigger than Donald Trump and and where we are right now. This is about preserving the office of the president. So

it is not about Donald Trump. This is not some partisan witch hunt, um, which he's calling it, though he seemed like it's a witch hunt again. You know, he likes to play victims, so that's you know, convenient, and that's what he does. Um. But you know, at the end of the day, this is about preserving the office of the presidency. Hissue will judge us by this moment in time. I know, and I you all affirm every day and what you do on this show that he

lost moral authority a long time ago. But also the Mulla report, you know, did prove obstruction of justice. And so there are many round and the majority of our caucus are on board. And I do want to give credit where credit is due to the leadership of Representative al Green and represent Rashida to Leave for their resolution to initiate impeachment proceedings that I was proud to be an early co sponsor of that resolution. When AOC said that Nancy Peloshi was singling out women of color, did

you agree with her? I don't know if that's really what she said. You know, I think you know. What I'll just say is none of that serves us well. And again I think there is this idea that we're short of, this cohort of some insurgent gang that is like this virus, and a lot of that is Unfortunately, in politics, perception becomes the only truth. That is not the truth. Each of us enjoy very productive, great relationships with our colleagues. Each of us are lawmaking, so each

of us is on our grind. We are doing the work that our districts sent us to do. Even amongst the squadity, y'all don't always agree, right Because I saw article that a political role in the headline was a member of the squad goals rogue and you guys aren't a monist like you said. Absolutely again, that's what I'm just saying that kind of like language. We are not a monolith. We don't land in the same place on every vote. We are each our own people. I know

you gotta go. I got one last quick question, okay, and it's from the political article because they said you're progressive with the Squad, but you spend most of your career pushing for change from within the establishment, not shaking it up from the outside. Where do you say that again? Binary choices and revisionist history. The Boston City Council is thirteen members. I was the first woman of color, first black woman elected to the council. Took over a hundred years.

I represented about six hundred and sixty thousand people while I served on that body. Six more women were five more women were elected to the Boston City Council. Who identifies women of color. We completely changed it. And they are all truth tellers, They are all table shakers, They are all disruptive. And so I think people think the council has always been this way, but that is just not the truth. Um, you know, so did I work

to change things, uh, structurally and legislatively from within the system. Yes, because I'm a legislator and I was serving on a governing body. But I did never did this work alone. You know, I'm just the vehicle and a vessel. I did this work in partnership with the people that I represent, UM and so I my values have always been progressive. My approach to actualizing my progressive values has always been one through coalition building. And so again, this is about

people forcing a narrative of binary choices. Are you insider or outsider? Are you privileged or poor? Are you you know I'm not? Uh? You know? Are you radical or saying? You know? You know I'm I'm I'm working. You know I'm I'm working and I have been for a very very long time. Well, Iana, Presley, we are praying for you. I receive that. I want you to get security. I think every squad has shooters. You need some shooters. Well listen, you know, keep us, keep us preyed up and covered.

Can I get those shirts for the crew? Oh? Yes, okay, let yes, we can't tell you, but we can't open the door, I know, because we're like, okay, but but but the T shirts they just say we are the squad and and and again this is um, bring them in, let's put them on camera. Okay, this is you know the reason why we created these shirts is because and this is my husband. What's up my black diamond talk about? This is my husband, Conan, And UM, I'm so glad

you got a black husband. I didn't know. Yeah, well I love me some him. But um, so these these shirts say we are the squad because anyone doing the work of building a more equitable and jest world is a member of the squad. You know, this is not just about you know, four members of Congress never, never has been, never will be. Oh you can get these online, Yana prescy dot com. And um, we are the squad and the squad is big, y'all. Word. Thank I appreciate

you for coming through some time. Thank you. I appreciate you so much. This is so important what you do. And just thank you for the voter education that you do every day. Absolutely, and thank you for people like you coming up here and informing our listeners even more. My pleasure, Siana Presley is the breakfast club morning. Everybody is DJ mvy Angela Yee Charlomagne the guy. We are to Breakfast Club. Let's get to the rumors. Let's talk Cardie B. She's filling the team. This is the Rumor

Report with Angela Yee on the Breakfast Club. Well, Cardi B has released a snippet of her interview of Bernie Sanders. Now, she's been wanting to talk to these candidates and ask them questions that affect all of us. She posted what are your Questions? So I know this is long overdue, but here it is. A couple of weeks ago, I asked my followers, if you all have the chance to ask a Democratic candidate a question, what would that question be. The topic that was mentioned the most by all of

you was about raising a minimum wage. I got the chance to ask Bernie Sanders about this and these are his answers. Keep sending your questions, but we will be addressing more of these soon. Body doing exactly what she should be doing, absolutely, you know. But here is her question and Bernie Sanders answer. And what are we going to do about wages in America? Right now? We have tens of millions of people who are earning them I consider to be starvation wages. Can you imaxine somebody today

earning nine dollars an hour, it will make no sense. No, it doesn't. And if you have a child legislation that I introduced, which was passed in the House recently West House, who had raised that minimum wage to fifteen dollars an hour. And what we also have to do is make it easier for workless to join unions so they can sit down and engage and collective bargaining and earn a decent living body doing exactly what she should be doing. And she's reaching out to the people, asking them what they

want to know. She has access to these presidential candidates to ask those questions. So why not? All right? So, I'm sure there's going to be more coming soon. I want to shall talk to different candidates too. I'm sure I'm sure she can. All right, now, Katie Perry, what's going on here? She's being accused of sexual misconduct and that is by a modeling actor, Josh Klaus, who was her love interest in the twenty ten teenage Dream music video. He posted, you know, after I met Katie, we sang

a worship song opened the eyes of my heart. She was cool and kind when other people who were around. She was cold as Ice even called the act of kissing me gross to the entire set while filming. Now, I was pretty embarrassed, but I kept giving my all. He goes on to say that Katie invited him to a strip club in Santa Barbara after the first day of shooting. He said, I declined and told her I have to go back to hotel and rest because this

job is all I have right now. So we did see her a couple of times after she broke up with Russell, she said. According to Josh Klaus, he said, the one time I bought a friend who was dying to meet her, it was Johnny Boujac's birthday party at Moonlight roll Away, and when I saw her, we hugged and she was still my crush. But as I turned to introduce my friend, she pulled my adi sweats and underwear out as far as she could to show a couple of her guy friends and the crowd around us

my penis. Can you imagine how pathetic and embarrassed I felt she pulled them out, so, I mean people had to gather around and look down. She didn't pull them down, she pulled and underwear out as far as I guess what it means out, So she pulled him out to people have to go and look yet look inside inside. So he was the point of him again, right, I

like detail, is he saying that? I just say this now because our culture is set on proving men of power are perverse, but females with power are just as disgusting? So can he sue? I don't know if he's even trying to sue? Can? I think he just wanted to tell his story about what happened. I don't even I mean, sadly, I just don't think nobody cares like I just said that. Just none people laughed if I said that was about a woman. Everybody'd been looking down like, oh my god,

oh my gosh. So st't thinking abody cares so shitty? Sue? So who? I thought people can sue? Now it it's something like that. People that gathered around and looked at your penis so who pull the pants back and said

and said, why can't he sue? Katie Barry? Well, he also understand that he just doesn't want to protect her BS image, And he showed some corresponds that he had with her team because people were interviewing him about being the lead and her teenage Dream video, and they actually wrote back the answers that he had to say in order to respond to these interview questions. Did he say

when it happened? Because I heard it was last Friday night? Now, he said, the fair sticks with you when you are sented to protect someone else's image but in return treated like a prostitute and exposed in front of a group of her friends and other random people. Then you are shocked and you block it out because you watched the face of children being uplifted by positive music that she's sang.

And he explains what happened. All this is because it was the anniversary of that song, So he just, I guess A felt like getting this off of his chest. In the meantime, a lot of people were flagging his post on Instagram, so Instagram sent him a warning that his account might be deleted. A lot of her fans. Man can't even tell his story. Lord have mercy. So that's what's happening all right. Asap, Rocky, his assault trial verdict is expected to be announced and he doesn't have

to be there. Of course, this is in Sweden, but you know, I don't know what's going to happen. They're asking for a six month jail sentence for Asap Rocky. They're saying he used excessive force during his fight with Jafari, so perhaps he'll get that from Asap rock I'm innocent, regardless, I am never going back. Even if they said guilty, I'm gonna go back. Well, he's already said he's not going back. Go back regarless, it doesn't even matter at this point. I'm not going back, all right. Jay Z

and Rock Nation have partnered with the NFL. They're doing a music and social justice campaign. So it's a Rock Nation and the NFL. And what's gonna happen is they're gonna work together on the league's inspired change activism campaign. He's also going to work on the Super Bowl halftime show. He's a consultant, So there you have it. Some people are speculating that Beyonce is going to perfor one for the third time at halftime, but who knows. I'm on

the face. I don't see the problem with this, because if you want to change something, sometimes the best change comes from within. But I think the biggest issue people

have in question. People have if they want to know how could Hold partner with a league on social justice when the man who bought it to the attention of the masses by peacefully protesting against social injustice, Colin Kaepernick, is still denied a job by those exact same people, Like, the NFL really can't have social justice, so they fix that, right, I'm sure he probably had a conversation right with Colin Kaepernick behind the scenes before making this announcement, I would think.

But still that still doesn't the nullified the point that, you know, Colin Kaepnick still doesn't have a job. Well, maybe he's feeling like the way to make change is within, all right, I just said that. I agree with that, But I'm just saying saying it's hard for the I think it's hard for people to look at this situation and say, hey, it's a social justice initiative when Colin Kaepernick still does not have a job. He's the person

who peacefully protesting against social injustice. So NFL really can't have social justice until they fixed that. When they fix that, then they can move on to doing, you know, deals with guys like Hold. So nobody's gonna be mad anymore that people are watching NFL because last share everybody bearing the NFL, right, who's who didn't do that? A lot of people think if Colin Kappernett got a job, then everything wouldn't be an issue. Nobody, nobody would have any

problems at all. They would they would not they actually be I mean, I applaud the movies. I think that you can make you can make change from within, and you should attempt to make change from within. But if Colin had a job, nobody would have any issue with this whatsoever? All right? I mean sometimes, but not even sometimes. Most of the time, we like symbols have changed more than actual change, which is wild to me. All right, I Managela, Yeah, and that is your rumor report. Thank you,

Michee Charlemagne. Don't you who give it a two? You know, I think that you should always be yourself, especially in the bedroom. And I hate to go back to Florida today, but we need to go to Florida. All right. We'll get into that next keeping locked us to breakfast club. Good morning, and make sure you're the watch out for Florida. The craziest people in America come from the Bronx in all of war. Yes, you are a donkey. The Florida man a chap and ATM for a very strange reason.

It gave him too much money. Florida man is arrested. I have to definitely say he riggs the board to his home and an attempt to electro kid his present life. Police arrested in Orlando man for talking a Flamilia to breakfast club Bitchy Donkey other Day with Charlam Hana Go why y'all keeping him? Get you out like I don't even mean to do this. Donkey here to Day for Friday, August four teen, goes to a young woman named Ashley Edwards and her boyfriend Kenneth Atkins. God bless Ashley Edwards.

She's from Tampa, Florida. And you know what your uncle Sharla always says about Florida. The craziest people in America come from the Bronx and all of Florida. And this is just another story that solidifies that once again. Now I'm letting you know right now that we are playing a game of guess what race to Day. We don't need to music yet, you know, I just want people to listen to the details of this situation. Let me listen, you know, to get your clues. All right, body at home,

play alone? Now. Police were called to the home of Kenneth Atkins and Ashley Edwards to find the interracial couple engaged in a verbal argument over refusal to role play. I repeat this, interracial couple engaged in a verbal argument over refusal to role play. Now, let's unpack this, as my therapist says, the first clue, and guess what race it is? We have an interracial couple. All right, write

that down now. Ashley, the girlfriend stated she wanted to play slave in slaver Ken if the boyfriend did not wish to partake and became verbally aggressive. I don't know how the conversation went, but I'm sure it was something to the effect of who the hell are you playing with? You think slavery a joke? Hoo? Go play slave and slavery with your mama, hope. Well a tensions escalated, Ken if the boyfriend spitting Ashley's face. I don't condone spitting

in anyone's face. I can't think of anything more disrespectful than that. Now, I am a stern believing that when you do something to someone, you can't tell them how to react. But when you spit in someone's face. That rule is reinforced by a million Okay, I don't care what it is when you're spitting someone's face. There is no such thing as going too far when it comes

to that person retaliating. Okay. I was watching a great documentary last night called King in the Wilderness about the last eighteen months of MLK Junior's life, and there's a part in the dock where a white woman runs up to MLK Junior and spits in his face repeatedly, and MLK Junior replied, Now, you are much too pretty to be acting like that. In that moment, I said to myself, Lord, have mercy. Jesus Christ returned and we didn't even recognize it.

MLK Junior had more patience than job because in that moment when she's spitting his face, I wanted all the non violence to go out the window, and I wanted the ladies of the civil rights movement that knocked that white woman to the ground and march all over her in those ballet flat church shoes. But enough of the civil rights talk. Let's get back to slavery. Ashley Edward and Kenneth Atkins interracial couple. Do you have your clue. Ashley the girlfriend wanted to play slave and slaver and

Kenneth Atkins. The boyfriend cursed her out and spitting her her face because of that request. Before we give out these he haws, let's play a game off. Guess what Race to Day? Now? Got your clues? Right? Vy? Right? You? Yes? Ashley Edwards Kenneth Atkins, interracial couple, Florida. Ashley the girlfriend wanted to play slaven slaver Kenneth Atkins the boyfriend cursed her out and spitting her face. Angela, yee, guess what Race to Day? I would say Ashley is a white woman, okay,

and Kenneth is a black man. Okay? Down all right? Not a bad guess, dj NB. Yeah, I thought this was gonna be a little more difficult. You have me writing things down here down because he got you gotta write down the clue, you right? I wrote Ashley white and Kenneth black. I am. I thought it was gonna get up. There's gonna be a curveball somewhere or something.

Maybe there is. You don't know the answer, Okay, let's yeah, I don't tell both few niggas, you're wrong, Ashley Edwards is a black woman, a queen, and Kenneth Patkins is a white man. Now, let me tell you something. Put the picture up there. You see the picture, vote right there, look gonna revote TV. Let me tell you something. Ashley Edwards is getting dunk here today because why the hell

would you be making a mockery or something like slavery? Okay, slavery is not something to role play because if you were actually role playing slavery, you would be getting raped by your master. And I don't think it's cute that a sister would request that of her white boyfriend. Now, Kenneth Patins, I commend you for not involving yourself and this Uncle Tom foolery, but you have to share in this donkey for spitting on a black woman. I just

told you. I watched King in the Wilderness documentary last night, and I'm triggered because all I saw was white men hawks spitting on Martin Luther King Jr. And the brothers and the sisters in the Civil rights movement as they

were marching. So I'm not feeling that if I see a white man spitting on a black woman, no matter the context, we're gonna beat your ass okay, because you may not have role played slave and slaver with her, but when you, as a white man's been on a black woman, you damn sure could be role playing in a civil rights protest. So please let remy Mark give ashleyell was and kinnifaking's the biggest he hall he ha,

you stupid motherfu are you dumb? Now? Not gonna name names, but I had a guest on lip service and he said that he would be turned on if a white woman wanted to pretend to be a slave master and he would enjoy it. Tell us who it is? It was all lip services out How do I want to put him out there at this moment? You got a whole podcast, got a whole podcast out there. You gotta go back and listen and figure it out. Texting us and hitting us on Twitter and social media. Come on,

you tell us who was a blind item? Stop that uncle Tom foolery? All right? An breaking news asap. Rocky has been found guilty, by the way, and this is satcase. Yes he has, and like I said, there's no possible way he would be going back. Well, he's been giving us a suspended sentence, no jail time, and he has to pay a fine to the victim, like how you set that up here? Yeah? That was good made everybody? Then you have to take his ass back somewhere see anything?

If you need relationship advice, any type of advice, call ye right now again the numbers eight hundred five eight five one five one. It is the Breakfast Club. Good morning, the Breakfast Club Morning. Everybody is DJ Envy Angela, Yee, Charlottagne the guy we are the Breakfast Club. Is time for asking yee, Hello,

who's this today? Dave? What's up? What's your question for you? Bro? Hey? Uh don't. Let's how So I'm white and my wife's black, um, and my grandparents don't treat my kids the same as they treated me when I was a kid. I can see it different, and I don't know how to approach him and say, like, look, I can see how a y'all acting, and I don't really know how to explain

it to him. Okay, so I'm gonna say this was my life because my mama's black, my dad's Chinese, and my grandparents definitely weren't feeling me and my brother because we're mixed, and that was something that I didn't notice myself. Do you think your children noticed that because they don't know how your grandparents, their grandparents treated you, right, right, So not really, but I can tell obviously, right, so it might not even it's as little subtle, is it

little subtle things? Yeah, Like I don't know, they just act weird. It's not the same vibe, Like they don't feel like grandma and grandpa. Well, maybe you should just have a conversation with them. And I would also have that conversation with my children and just say, hey, how

do you feel about grandma and grandpa? Just to kind of see if there's if they are getting any type of weird about because I think that's one of the main things to make sure that your kids feel loved by their grandparents, you know, But it might be something that even they don't notice, or maybe it's something that

you're making too you're maybe too paranoid about. So that's why you got to have that conversation with them and just ask them, do you you know, ask them about those questions hard to ask about race and do you feel upset that I had my grandchildren? I mean that your grandchildren are mixed. Do you have any issues with that. I've noticed that you've done this, and you should get really specific examples. It can't just be a general feeling like you know, this happened on this day or when

you did this. I felt a little weird about it, and just let them know and point it out and hopefully they'll change their behavior. If there is something weird, maybe they don't even think they're acting strange. Right, Okay, well, appreciate ye, no problem, all right, y'all, all right, but I have a good one. I ask ye eight drew five eight five one oh five one. If you need relationship advice and any type of advice, call ye right now.

It's the breakfast Club. Good morning, Envy, Angela yee, Charlemagne, the guy we all the breakfast club in the middle of ask ye, Hello, who's this? Hey man? What's upthing? What's your question for you? Bro? So this is my situation. I was in a mary right, me and my wife being married. Now I am about a year. So we got in a situation where ship got physical. We had a physical upcation in our relationship, and basically her family

won't forgive me for that. Being her, we had our issues, you know, we went through we know why these things happen, and they happen. We still want to work on it, but her family really does a tool of it because when me put my hands on her, well, of course her family. Yeah, I'm trying to figure out, like, how could we possibly work around that. Well, her family's very protective of her, so of course they should feel that way, and so you shouldn't look at that as something detrimental.

Of course they should feel like you put your hands on our family member and a woman, and they should definitely side at you for that. So first you have to understand they're very valid and their reason for looking at you and the way that they are, And that's

a punishment that you have to take. And I totally, I totally understand that, you know what I'm saying, They got physical, but I wanted you understand this for over the years, right, being her both being back and forth, we both had put our hands on each other, right, and it's kind of like it's kind of like I knew what white for nobody to do it, but it's white if I would have been something wrong, you know

what I'm saying. And you go through my phone and she see something in my phone, you know, bet my phone, and she attle because of thing that she's seen in my phone. When she put her hands on me plenty of times, right this time it was the other way around. I seen something in her phone, so I put my hands on her because of that, you know what I'm saying. So it really got out of hand because she had bruised scars and situation. Wow, that really really pushed it,

you know. Yeah, And you bruised and scarred your women up and that that should make you feel terrible. And I just want to say a couple of things. First of all, it's never right for a woman to put her hands on a man either. And I tell people that all the time. Women shouldn't be putting their hands

Nobody should be putting their hands on each other. I think that, as you said, what happened was worse because you ended up really physically harming her, and you could have ended up in jail for that, and things could have gotten even worse. You could have permanently damaged her, you could have you know, And one thing my boyfriend was tell me is that anytime, And his mom has always told him this. If you feel like you have to put your hands on a woman, that's you need

to walk away. That's not the right woman for you. But you said this is the one time that it happened. She wants to forgive you for it. And I can't tell a woman what to do. But I suggest that you guys have got to get real help. And that means that y'all have to go to therapy. You have to figure out why you reacted the way you reacted. She has to figure out how to keep her hands to herself as well. But there really is never an excuse for you to basically beat your woman up. And

that's what you did. Yeah, it really take what happened or where I do it? You went through her phone and saw something? Yeah, well Thanksally, Well what I saw Let me tell you what I saw though. I went through her phone, right, and I saw that she was asking having affair with my sub's football coach. Listen, I feel you, and there's but there's still no matter. It don't matter what you saw. There's no justification. Yeah, I'll understand what you say at the time like that, when

you see that you're still trying to justify it. I know, okay, can I foll to every every listening? So yeah, I'm listening. I don't agree with you, my brother. I'm gonna ask you if your wife phold right now? You see that she was the heaven up there with somebody that was tose to y'all, and you had a little leak in your system. Your very first action first to lead a damn house. You can't move off of motion in a

situation like that. You got to move off strategy number one, number one because you shouldn't hit a woman in number two because you just got too much to lose. Brother, that's right. Now, look at my system. I probably cry and I'm in the fetal position. But what I am concerned about is that you are still trying to get people to back you up for your actions, and you

cannot justify your actions. You cannot put your hands, you can't appeal to the men in the room and think that they're gonna be like, yeah, how to get it too. I can understand why you did that. There's an no explanation. There's no way that you are in the right in the situation. I feel you you were hurt, but that doesn't mean that you're supposed to physically harm your woman. Now, I will say I can understand why he did it. I don't agree though. I can understand the emotion and

the alcohol, but I don't agree with you. Yeah, you can't justify it. You can't say, well, this is why I did it, so all good. So you cannot ever do something like that again. And you have to own the fact that you were wrong in your reaction. Now what she wrong? Dead wrong. You could have left her. You could have said I'm never gonna be with you again. You could have cut off whatever you know, support you give her or she gives you, whatever it is. But

you physically put in your hands on her. It's never the solution. You're like, I know, I really be great it right now because like I feel, we're separated. I don't move that and you know what I'm saying away from my kids and family. Family had a whole arty spirit from me before. But yeah, you bruise her up. You know how crazy that looks. What you need to do is get yourself into some therapy and show her that you're serious. Is about rehabbing yourself and take that

time apart to work on you. I'm doing it and then't feel like a wrong with me. I just had a bad situation at one time I stopped listening. There is something wrong. You shouldn't have reacted that way, and you gotta acknowledge that if you did it once, you'll do it again. So it's so wrong with me because of one mistake. Everybody makes mistake. That feel like I

had to go get everybody. Everybody does make mistakes. But the problem is is first of all, you're using liquor when you're upset, and that's that's the worst thing to do. You're upset, you mad, You're using liquor to take away the pain, and you want up be an abusive and yes, you have a problem. You need to deal with that problem. You don't want to make sure that happens again. And then the next time you're saying, yeah, I made two mistakes. You just want to make sure that older you, sir,

he sounds older. Yeah, I made I made that mistake when I was seventeen years old, you know, putting my hands on a woman, you know, for the same situation. But you know I was, I was had low emotional intelligence then I was immature. I was insecure. I had low self esteem, like my ego was bruised. But at thirty three years old, I would make that mistake. If you're serious, go get some help for yourself and acknowledge that you're run because I don't think you really truly

grasped it. Okay, I could feel good? All right? I wish you the best? Oh wow? Please saif alrighty well, ask ye eight hundred five eight five one on five one. If you need relationship advice to any type of advice, you can hit e now. Now we got rumors on the way. You know it. We're gonna talk about our Brooklyn nets. How does Steph Curry respond to Kevin Durant designing that he was going to leave the Warriors? All right, we'll get into that next. Keep a life tis the

Breakfast Club? Good morning the breakfast Club. Listen, it's just oh gosh, go report guys. It's report Breakfast Club. But we gave you this breaking news earlier. But asap, Rocky has been found guilty of assaulting a man in Sweden. Now he is not going to have to serve any jail time. Another issue, they were trying to figure out what was it self defense and did he actually hit

this man with a bottle and cut him? But they couldn't get a single witness who saw that bottle fly during the incident, and asap Rocki said he was holding a bottle for protection but put it down and it never made contact with the guy. No one actually saw that bottle, so asap Rocky hit him with it, so

that's what it was. They could not prove the bottle was used to hit the victim, so they said there's no more time served and he won't have to do community service, but he does have to pay restitution to the victim and cover the court expenses in Sweden. We don't know how much that is. Okay, all right, let's talk about another lawsuit. Don Lemon from CNN has been sued allegedly there saying that he assaulted a man at

a bar in the Hamptons. A bartender said that Don Lemon, after he recognized Don Lemon at a location, he offered to buy him a drink. This was back in July of twenty eighteen. Now, Don Lemon declined the offer, but then he approached him and allegedly assaulted the bartender. You didn't say what kind of drink it was? It's a lemon drop. Yeah, that's true. I really can't even he

can't even make this kind of goodness. That's all right now, According to the person who was now accusing Don Lemon of his true story, dustin heis no, I said that the guy's the two stories the guys claiming that drop. Yes, all right, according to this person, dustin heist, he said. Don Lemon then placed his hands down his pants and vigorously rubbed his genitalia. He shoved his fingers under his nose and then proceeded to ask him do you like

vagina or penis? But not in those words, so he rubbed his hands on his testicles and put it on the guy. Now, according to the person who was accusing the planes if he said, mister Lemon was wearing a pair of short sandals and a T shirt. And then uh also put his index and middle finger into his

mustache under his nose, So I don't know now. CNN, a CNN spokesperson is speaking on behalf of Don Lemon and saying that Don Lemon categorically denies the allegations and says that the person who's accusing him Dustin Heist does not like CNN and has displayed a pattern of contempt for CNN on his social media accounts. And that's why this claim is being filed rough week for CNN. And because you saw, you know, Chris Komokomo get get approached and you know this is happening to Don Lemon, and

you just never know. People really may be upset. You know that they're on the a left leaning network talking about what's going on the right in a negative way. So some of the stuff could be planted people. I'm just saying, they could be being they could be targeted. Right now, Okay, and let's discuss Steph Curry. He's talking about Kevin Durant's decision to leave the Warriors and join our Brooklyn Nets. Now here is what Steph Curry had to say about their relationship and how they both actually

won those rings together. Blyn as sure to make sure he's happy and then going to a place where he feels like he needs to be. At the end of the day, you can you gotta be happy about that, for that's what every player in this league in a situation where they can decide where they want to play, all right, So there you have it, very mature. I'm

sure they'll still be cool. He respects that. Speaking of basketball, lamar Odom, he's talking about having a new woman, Sabrina Park and he was on this nation and he was discussing what makes his new girlfriend different, What makes this relationship different from previous relationships is the truth she's black and a black woman would come along him. Ain't playing the Oh no, I was not playing at all now.

Sabrina part also talks about what she had to do in order to be okay to be in a relationship with lamar Odom. Who have to meet people where they are. He was never in a position to be someone's husband. You know. He was sick. He needed to heal, he needed to grieve. He experienced a lot of losses and he never had time to go through that. So I knew with my resources and my personality and my attitude, I can help him, you know, and initially a one

as a helpmate. If I'm not helping him, then I'm hurting him, you know, Like heal your mind and your heart first and then let's see what you can become. All right, Well, it sounds like he's in a happy relationship. Now, ye, and let's discuss Imagine you've been working in the adult film industry, making all these movies in the course of three months, and all you made was twelve thousand dollars. Well, Mia Khalifa, who's a porn star, said that's how much

she made when she was doing all these top rated porns. Apparently, they said she's still like number two on the most searched for when it comes to porn. She said, people think I'm racking in millions from porn, completely untrue. I made a total of around twelve thousand dollars in the industry and never saw a penny again after that. Difficulty finding a normal job after quitting porn was scary. First of all, I've never watched any of the little point

alls and said to myself, Wow, they look like a millionaire. Never, I've never thought that in my life make more than twelve thousand dollars. Dog, I've never thought in porn stars make a lot of money, not more than twelve thousand us were doing all them points. No, you haven't seen mister Marcus Tims. No, mister Marcus Tims so worn down. Sometimes Well, I'll say this. People also think that when you're a really popular porn star, then you would have

made at least hundreds of thousands of dollars. People assume that because she's a very because she's a really pop she's a number two most search see it now, Brian Pumper jewelry is fake? Is the markets be wearing the same hat for years? I also never think that men make the same amount that women make when it comes to port nobody's searching them, nobody searching them like nobody's searching them like these women or this lady. Is it search searches equate the dollars? That means people want to

see you more. So, I don't mean you don't say just because people search you, do you talking about that? Means that means your popularity is how Yes, and you would assume that you would get paid more money. That don't translate the dollars we notice in this social media era because we interview at least an on lip service and she actually is a millionaire from doing portant. I don't know who that is. She's a really popular point. She also has their own radio show as well, and

she talks about sports a lot. But did you make that money exactly? Did she make the million dollars from porn? Yeah, because part of it is having your own production company. That's how you end up making more money because you produce your own films. And she talks about that because a lot of porn stars and you get paid depending on what you do, Like you might get paid more for a certain X and they put it in your contract.

They say they usually get between two thousand and ten thousand per scene, depending on experience or how popular that person is. Right, So of course you get paid more if you're more popular. And because she was so popular, you wouldn't think she'd have made more than twelve thousand. You would think she'd get more than that for one movie. And the men only make five hundred to fifteen hundred. I told you then make way less. Well that's why

Brian Bumper jury fake. His name is Pumper whatever. All right, I'm Mandela Yee and that is your room of report. All right, shout to revote. We'll see you tomorrow. Everybody else to People's Choice Mixes up Next, get your requested, Let's go porning. Everybody is DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlemagne the guy.
