Speaker 1

Good morning, peeps, and welcome to wok F Daily with Meet your Girl Danielle Moody recording from the Home Bunker, Folks. I want to first.

Speaker 2

Off, just wow, wow, wow wow at the state of politics in this here country.

Speaker 1

As you all know, Donald Trump has been convicted on the thirty four felony counts in the election interference aka hush money trial. And what is so striking to me, as this reality sanks in, is that Donald Trump is a twice impeached sexual assault her who has been convicted of thirty four felonies and is the Republican nominee for president, and that he's not losing support, if anything, he's probably

gaining support. The way in which his sycophants, this cult has rallied around him and continues to rally around him is breathtaking. When Donald Trump said years ago, now fucking nine years ago now that he could shoot somebody on the middle of Fifth Avenue and watch his poll numbers

go up, he was absolutely right. I think that Donald Trump could walk into a school and probably shoot it up, and you would have you know, Nikki Haley wanting to autograph the gun, and you would have Tim Scott talking about those damn children were terrorists. Like that is how sick and fucking twisted of a place the Republican Party

and this cult find themselves. Donald Trump paid off a porn star that he had an affair with, not so that his wife wouldn't find out, but so that the American people wouldn't find out that the same man that said when they're a star, when you're a star, they let you do it. They'll even let you grab him by the pussy was also fucking porn stars. He didn't care whether or not Millennia knew, because I'm certain that she did, right. It's part of the fucking, you know bargain.

You get the money and name, and you know, I get to do whatever the hell I want. The fact is is that he didn't want the American people to know what a disgusting piece of shit he was that he is. And I think that the Biden Administration's response to Donald Trump is tep it as best. I still believe that this campaign, the Biden campaign, is in a lot of trouble, and I don't think that anything that happened in New York is going to change that. And that is the problem. The fact is that Donald Trump

is a convicted felon. Donald Trump could not vote for himself because we don't allow felons to vote in this country. But apparently, as a felon, you can still hold the highest office in the land. It is remarkable, It is ridiculous. It shows us how many fucking holes remain in our laws, and how we didn't see this. We couldn't see it.

And by we, I mean the founding fathers that drafted the constitution, that drafted our laws, couldn't foresee that a criminal would be able to run for office because they had more faith in the American people than anything else. This is what Susan Collins said of the Trump conviction. It is fundamental to our American system of justice that the government prosecutes cases because of alleged criminal conduct, regardless of who the defendant happens to be. In this case,

the opposite has happened. The district attorney, who campaigned on a promise to prosecute Donald Trump, brought these charges precisely because of who the defendant was, rather than because of any specified criminal conduct. The political underpinnings of this case further blurred the lines between the judicial system and the electoral system, this verdict likely will be subject of protracted

appeals process. This is coming from a sitting senator, right, who told us, oh, Donald Trump, seventy something years old, will learn from his mistakes. Right. These Republicans have decided that when they are held to account, when their king is held to account, then the justice system must be flow. But was it flawed when, oh, I don't know, it was going after Hunter Biden, when it was going after Menendez, when it was going after you know, any Democrat that

has been convicted of crimes. Did Democrats come out and say this must be some type of witch hunt. Donald Trump is a fucking serial criminal. He's been cheating the system since he was born. And the fact that they are trying to undermine our justice system and use it to their advantage is wild. And the fact again that this administration is not saying anything of note, is not offering up the opposite to the American people, which is truth.

And I tell you that, you know, I I was at an event right after the conviction, the guilty verdict came in, and you know, I'm sitting at this you know, wonderful gathering talking about you know, the state of politics, not just in this country but around the world.

Speaker 2

And what.

Speaker 1

Is resonant with me is that there are some older folks right who want to already blame young people for their actions on college campuses and their desire for the Biden administration to be held for account for aiding and abetting a fascist genocide right that is taking place being live every day, blaming these young people for calling out the absolute hypocrisies of the Biden administration and saying that they're not going to vote or being concerned about how

upset these young people are. And I'm thinking to myself, do we understand what the class of twenty twenty four has been through? A global health pandemic, a shutdown. These are young people that have probably lived through multiple mass shootings, the world being on fire literally, and now multiple wars, student loan debt that in some cases is being relieved, but the Supreme Court said, ah, fuck those kids, right. So Biden is doing his best to try and relieve

what he can. But the reality here is that Joe Biden is in trouble, and so I'm not you know, yes, I am gleeful that Donald Trump has been convicted. Do I believe that he will appeal absolutely ad nauseum. Do I think that Donald Trump is going to be sentenced to jail, No, I don't do. I think that he should have a lot of privileges revoked in this sentencing, which is that you can't do business in New York,

something to that effect. I don't know if that can happen, you know, restriction on your travel, right to be dragged in the same fucking way that Marilyn Moseby was right. She used her own money to buy a home and like was brought up on charges of fraud around it is serving now a year in home confinement and three years of probation. After that, she was facing forty years in prison. I didn't hear Republicans coming out and saying that that was problematic. No, they said she got what

she deserved. So how then do you look at Donald Trump and not say the same because they don't fucking care. So there's no rationalizing with these people. But the fact is is that if this Biden campaign is banking on Donald Trump's steadfast support dwindling because he's a convicted felon, well you've got your answer already. These people shall not be moved. So what's your play, Because, like I said,

it cannot be that you're the arbiter of democracy. Not when people are watching Biden throw away this campaign so that he can lock arms with Israel and that in Yahoo that he's willing to give up everything that this country and its citizens have fought for so that he can have ironclad support for a genocide. You know, they want to make a statement that says, you know, the justice system worked, and you know we need to support our justice system, we respect the rule of blah blah blah,

blah blah blah. It's not enough. It's not enough. And I don't think that they get it. You know, I think that ignoring the anger that people are holding against Biden, for God's and for Rafa, for the deaths of like fifty thousand plus men, women and children. I don't think that people are looking at Biden and thinking to themselves like that's my guy. There is no enthusiasm and this campaign is going to have to reckon with that over the next five months because these other cases are not

going to go forward. The sentencing for Donald Trump will happen on July eleventh. Right, we can all laugh and joke and share memes, and you know it's good, right, It's good to have some levity. But the seriousness of this situation is real. That a convicted felon, a rapist, a cheat, and a fraud is the best that the Republican Party could come up with. And he still has a fifty to fifty chance, if not more, of becoming president again. And this campaign doesn't know how to mount

a proper defense again. The only reason why Joe Biden is president is because the American people had had it with Donald Trump. But when they look at their anxiety, when they look at their bank account, when they look around them right now, it's not as if they feel better. But the situation can indeed get worse. And that's what people have to understand. That's what people have to take into account. That twenty states in this country no longer

have access to abortion, that is almost half. Donald Trump becomes president, there will be a national abortion ban. There will be a ban on contraception. They will gut the Department of Education, privatize education with bullshit charter schools to create a permanent underclass for the new American oligarchs. They will strip away workers protections, sick days, holidays, certain hours permitted,

all gone. They will get that, they will take away Medicaid and Medicare, they will do away with the EPA, allow the big polluters to pollute as much as they want. There will be no recourse. This is not hyperbolic, This is facts. This is laid out in Project twenty twenty five. So again, like it sucks to be in a position where we're not gleeful about the candidate that we have, We're not excited about this upcoming election. It's an absolute shit show, just like the rest of the fucking world.

But what people need to get into their minds is that things can indeed get worse. They may not be and they probably won't be great again, despite Donald Trump's fucking bumper stick or bullshit logo. I think that the lie that is told is that our responsibility as citizens only comes around during elections. The elections are supposed to make us feel better, so to make our lives better, and then we get to go back to being distracted

with whatever else. That's not the reality anymore, because folks, what I want you to understand is that MAGA is never going away. They've multiplied, they've spread, they are a cancer. It is going to take so much intentional fucking work. Even if Biden manages to win, this country is still in incredible danger. We're never again going to be able to just take elections lightly, because every election is the most important election. I know that people are tired of

hearing that, but it's the fucking truth. If you care about your life, you need to be just as vigilant as you are about your safety on a daily basis, protecting your home, protecting yourself, protecting your country, because now we know who the enemies are and they aren't foreign.

So we need to be really fucking clear that while I am happy that Donald Trump was held accountable, I'm happy that twelve random jurors in New York had more conviction and more integrity than the Senate than many judges then Merrit Garland that they were very clear Donald Trump broke the law and if it had been any of them, they know what would have happened. They listened, they deliberated, and they came back with a verdict. I worry for

those people. Now I worry for Judge Marshat And what does that say about our country that a president of the United States was convicted of criminal acts of felonies, and the jurors had to be protected for fear of not only tampering, but of harm because he's a mobster surrounded by fucking criminals. This problem, this energy, is not

going to go away. So we have to decide together what kind of country we want to be, what kind of country we want to create for your kids and your grandkids, right for yourselves, for your neighbors, because that's what this election is about. Things may be dark, but they can always get darker, and are we prepared for that. We have five months and I pray that this administration, this fucking Biden campaign gets its shit together. But what I see ahead is a storm. So y'all batten down

the hatches. That is it for me today, Dear friends on woke ap as always, Power to the people and to all the people. Power, Get woke and stay woke as fuck.
