Since Trumpism broke through into the mainstream, our systems have not held - the holes in our system have only gotten wider. Democracy is going down, and if we don't plug the holes we will go down with the ship.

Speaker 1

Good morning, Pizza, and welcome to ok F Daily with Meet your Girl Daniel Moody recording from the Home Bunker. Folks, it is woke Wednesday, So congratulations for making it halfway

through this horrific week. Why do I say horrific week because I'm just exhausted when I find myself tweeting on a Monday about how sick and fucking tired of Donald Trump I am, and how sick and tired I am of this country, our injustice system continually showing us who it was built to protect and who it was built to in prison, who it was built to ensure their continued power, their continued ascension, hile others who are poor, who are black, who are brown, who are marginalized, remain

locked inside of an injust system. You see, Folks. You know, when Donald Trump had his bond reduced so that he could appeal the verdict that came out from Judge and Goron in the fraud case, I knew that it was a setup, right that Donald Trump. The reason why in New York City they referred to him as Teplon down was because everyone knows that Donald Trump is a criminal.

But everyone knows that if you have enough money and you have the complexion for the protection, then you can weasele your way out of all of the holes that are put inside of the justice system for wealthy white men to be able to maneuver. Right, it is the

illusion right of justice. It is the illusion of lawfulness because much in the same way that taxes work for the rest of us, but the super rich are able to avoid their taxes because if you have enough money and you're able to hire the teams that can get

you out of things, then you do that. Right. What did Donald Trump say when he was campaigning back in twenty sixteen and twenty twenty, Like, I don't pay taxes because I'm too smart for that, meaning that the rest of us are fucking chumps and idiots for following the tax law because we don't have the bevy of attorneys that are on our payroll ready to do and maneuver in a way that allows us to be on a crime spree for five decades. Right, Like, that's not how

it works. But you see, everyone fucking knows that about Donald Trump. But the system just continually bends because it was built to bend for white men and provide the perception, the illusion the law right, that no one is above the law. Bullshit, and fuck you Merrick Garland. Let me just go here for a minute before I transition to a different story. Fucking Merrick Garland is a piece of

fucking shit. And you know when people come for me and they say, oh, well, you can't articulate things without cursing, bitch, miss me, Because if you are not angry about the current predicament that this country finds itself in because of this spinelessness of Merrick Garland, then you're not paying attention.

Because the fact of the matter is, folks, if we go back in time and Merrick Garland not even had opened up a new investigation, but had picked up the fucking Muller report that was left for him on said desk, right to begin prosecuting Donald Trump. Back in twenty twenty one, we wouldn't even be having this conversation because Donald Trump would have been up to his fucking eyebrows right in

fucking appeals because those cases already been heard. He wouldn't have had time to fucking announce that he was running for president again. But Meren Garland, because he gave a shit more right about preserving institution again, the fucking illusions, right. He made sure that we could all pretend that the you know, systems held. The systems did not fucking hold. The systems have holes in them, The fences are fucking down, right, like, give me a break. The system held. So we're here

in this position for no other reason. Because here's the thing, folks, Donald Trump was always going to do what he can to escape the fucking law because he's a criminal, and that's what criminals do. So you are never going to expect somebody like that to ever do better, right, because there's no value for them in doing better. The value is in the grift. The value is in the lie. Okay.

So when you at higher folks like a Merrick Garland, which was a horrific mistake, we all thought that, oh, maybe Merrick Garland was moving with some type of tenacity because of how he was treated by Republicans. But then you realize, like, he's just a fucking punk and should have never had that job in the first fucking place.

You know, I wouldn't have even wanted Merrick Garland now that we know him on the Supreme Court right to what look at and part in parcel like the rule of law and want to play foot seas with Alito and Thomas and the rest of them. Give me a fucking break. Merrick Garland shouldn't have a job right now, Okay, And if by the grace of God, that Joe Biden is able to pull off the impossible, up against what we are up against in November, and he's able to pull it off and get to a second term, I

do not want fucking Merrick Garland like. I will run my own campaign to have Merret Garland fucking removed. He is a waste of skin. And we are here because he has no backbone. We are here because he had no foresight. We are here because he thought that somehow, tradition right was going to outrun criminality. Give me a

fucking break. I don't know how much more of Donald Trump's administration you needed to be front and center for to recognize that the rule of law was never going to apply to him and he was never going to what just wake up one day and find a moral compass. Give me a fucking break, unless the moral compass was crusted with the diamonds, right, and could you be utilized for his own whims he ain't looking for it. Okay, let me move on before I give myself a heart

attack by raising my blood pressure and yours. The next story that I want to talk about is what is happening in Missouri State and what just happened with the Missouri House. Y'all, we all know that Republicans do not care about people. They don't care about their constituency. But the Missouri State House really doesn't give a fuck. And I'm certain that what they have done will be copycatted. I don't even know if that is a word by the rest of red states. So this is what they did.

They passed a bill that would permanently eliminate income tax for corporations. This elimination would cost the state nine hundred million dollars. Now you're going to ask yourself, where are they going to fill in that gap nine hundred million dollars, you know, almost a billion. Well, they're going to raise taxes on the constituents, regular folks that live there and

cut social safety nets right in order to give corporations welfare. Right, because I guess, in their twisted, warped mind, what do they think they think that they're going to court in more corporations to come and then give people jobs. But the reality is is that those jobs won't provide them, most likely with the living wages that they need. But at least you know they'll have something and something akin

to indentured servitude right to these corporations. But here's the case, and this is something that Joy Reid posted on her page. One in seven people that live in Missouri are in poverty.

One in seven are in poverty. So what you were going to do is eliminate corporate responsibility as it pertains to income tax, devastate the conditions that are already rough for low income people in your state, which makes up roughly seventy percent of the state, and then cut the very programs that those people need so that you can

continue doing a jig for corporations. So basically, what the right wants and what they are doing is creating an entire lead new mechanism for poverty and essentially a third or fourth class of citizens in this country. So let's just run through the things that they have already done. You ban books, You got education, right, You change the education to not provide critical thinking because you don't want

to educate the very people you're trying to subjugate. You indoctrinate them with your perverse version of Christianity, which tells them that the harder they work, the closer to God that they'll get and justifies their living condition because they'll find glory on the other side. This is what this perverse version of Christianity does. Then you create a hate cyclone where everyone now is jockeying for the best low level jobs because they don't have the skill set or

the intellect to get any higher paying jobs. So then they turn on their neighbors because there's not enough for the rest of us. So you create this and exacerbate a scarcity mindset also that the rich can get richer, the poor will get poorer, and you eliminate any illusion thereof a middle class. How does that sound to everyone? Sounds good, sounds nice. Yeah, that's what the Republics are

doing in all of the Red states right now. And then if Donald Trump were to become president, they will take what they have done in their little Petrie dish states. They will nationalize that. They will essentially suck all of the resources out of the income generator, which are the blue dots in side of Red states. Take away those people's power, which they have done readily in Tennessee. We've

talked about this with our friend doctor Jonathan Metzel. Where you go ahead and finish off the job of gerrymandering districts to eliminate power and voice and presence while you suck those very centers of their income. All of this is about create large poverty centers. So then you're in such a hopeless and desperate place that you think that

one man alone can fix it. Sound familiar. Then you go ahead and you eliminate any signs of diversity, equity, and inclusion so that you lock black and brown people into further despair, so that then you can continue to take advantage of them pay low wages because guess what. You've eliminated unions, You've eliminated safety boards, You've eliminated you know, health in human services. You've eliminated all of these things. You've bought all of the courts, so no one can

actually sue, you know, for their rights. There are no rights. And yeah, and then America looks like, I don't know Russia. So that's the plan. It's not that elaborate, it's not even that nuanced. It's the same old, same old, rinse and repeat. So when I say and I post messages like I did earlier this week where I say that I'm fucking done and I'm fucking tired of Donald Trump, and I'm tired of this bullshit, and recognize and I want folks to understand that the courts are not coming

to save us. The only thing that is going to get rid of Donald Trump is the voters. That's it. Inside of a flawed system, what is flooded with misinformation and lies, where only half of the population knows that Donald Trump is under four indictments in ninety one charges and has already posted, you know, a quarter of a billion dollars worth of funds and is hawking bibles and sneakers all to pay his legal fees. Right, and then

you give him the final He's to the Kingdom. He's never leaving because they will change the constitution, they will rip up the Constitution, and Donald Trump will finish the job of taking this country for everything that it has, right, it's secrets, it's resources, all of those things, so that he can finalize his ascension to American oligarchy. Folks, This is not rocket science, right, So I could give a fuck about Biden's age. I could give a fuck about honestly,

And I'm gonna say something which is terrible. If people who are really angry, grief stricken, depressed and can't continue to follow what is happening in Gaza understand that Donald Trump wants to bulldoze it, right, what is left of Gaza, what is left of the Palestinian people, They will have no hope and no resources. And I will say again that you cannot fight for democracy elsewhere when you lose

it at home. Right when they say when a plane is going down, and they say, put the oxygen mass on yourself first, and then go ahead and try and help other people. The plane is going down. Democracy is going down. So we cannot continue right to say that, oh well, I'm going to withhold my vote for Joe

Biden because you have morals. You will have fucking nothing right after the election, so you can hold on to your integrity and your morals until you do what is necessary to do, which is get yourself and every fucking body around you to head to those polls and vote for Joe Biden in November. There is no choice here, right, There is no higher fucking ground. We are on a collision course with authoritarianism. We got one fucking shot at this.

So for folks who think that you know, they're going to have some type of protests, you can protest in December. You can protest for the next four fucking years, so long as we actually still have democracy, and we can put a fucking nail in the coffin right of Maga trump Ism and Donald Trump because that's the only thing that I give a fuck about for the next several months, because I'm not giving any energy to these court cases.

I'm not giving any energy to what is happening state by state because what I know is one goddamn thing to be true. Everything that they are doing state by state, right city by city, flooding the zone. As Steve Bannon said, they are testing and will be ready with their Project

twenty twenty five. Their twenty thousand some odd right wing sycophans that are just waiting and fucking biting for their opportunity to ruin America and think and then turn around and think that Donald Trump is going to reward them much in the same way that folks thought that they could control Hitler and then that motherfucker started killing all of the people around him. Wake up. Okay, what do people say? History doesn't repeat itself, but it rhymes. So

notice the patterns. And you know from now until November, you were going to hear me in ways that you have never hear me calling people out in ways that I have not called people out. Because we are out of time. So whatever kind of energy people want to get off their chest about Joe Biden, go ahead and fucking do it. Become November. Understand that you don't have a choice, and I don't care how that feels. Fuck your feelings. Right at this point, we can worry about

how we feel about democracy the Biden administration. Once we have secured it, then we can march, we can protest, we can do all of the things, we can boycott, we can do the fucking most because we will still have the rights as citizens of these United States to do so. That is it for me today, dear friends, on this woke Wednesday, My God, I pray we make it to the end of the week. We are coming up on the major eclipse. There's a lot going on, folks.

As always, power to the people and to all the people. Power get woke and stay woke as fuck.
