1 00:00:17,040 --> 00:00:25,240 Jeez, the despair that I feel. Despair. 2 00:00:28,000 --> 00:00:31,160 I know for the last few months I've tried to cheer everybody up 3 00:00:31,160 --> 00:00:34,320 and try to get everybody on board and come on, we can win 4 00:00:34,320 --> 00:00:37,120 this and we can stop Trump and we can elect somebody who's 5 00:00:37,120 --> 00:00:41,840 going to do all the right things from protecting women, women's 6 00:00:41,840 --> 00:00:47,600 reproductive rights, getting rid of assault weapons, doubling or 7 00:00:47,600 --> 00:00:52,120 tripling the minimum wage, housing for people that can't 8 00:00:52,120 --> 00:00:57,840 afford housing, taxing the rich, really taxing the rich. 9 00:00:59,800 --> 00:01:05,120 So many things that she has stood for has come out for. 10 00:01:06,320 --> 00:01:10,880 But I've also been asking her publicly and well, I won't say 11 00:01:10,880 --> 00:01:13,760 privately because I've not had a private conversation with her. 12 00:01:14,920 --> 00:01:18,280 As I've told you, I've met her a few times over the years before 13 00:01:18,280 --> 00:01:22,800 she was vice president. Really seemed like a good person 14 00:01:23,160 --> 00:01:28,040 good soul. I met her husband seemed like a 15 00:01:28,040 --> 00:01:33,880 great guy her stepdaughter Emma. I was with my whole family when 16 00:01:33,880 --> 00:01:37,440 just happened to be seated next to them in a restaurant cafe 17 00:01:37,440 --> 00:01:44,360 down in Chelsea, NY City kind of pushed our tables a little 18 00:01:44,360 --> 00:01:48,320 closer to each other and had our meals and talked and talked. 19 00:01:48,320 --> 00:01:52,920 And you know, my sisters are both residents of California now 20 00:01:52,920 --> 00:01:59,560 and so and their daughters are all constituents of her. 21 00:01:59,560 --> 00:02:01,800 She was a senator at the time from California. 22 00:02:03,760 --> 00:02:06,320 Oh my God, I just thought what a good person. 23 00:02:09,080 --> 00:02:12,360 Not one of my sisters was also a public defender defending the 24 00:02:12,360 --> 00:02:16,320 poor in California and and those who have been sent to 25 00:02:16,320 --> 00:02:21,080 California's prison. So she was not as enamored with 26 00:02:21,080 --> 00:02:22,560 her when she was attorney general. 27 00:02:23,440 --> 00:02:25,360 I'll interview her someday on this podcast. 28 00:02:25,360 --> 00:02:30,120 So she'll come on and I'll let you, I'll let you listen to her 29 00:02:30,120 --> 00:02:34,720 very convincing case for why even sometimes the best people 30 00:02:34,720 --> 00:02:37,080 or the best liberals or Democrats or whatever. 31 00:02:37,080 --> 00:02:41,680 I'm not going to tell you anything you don't already know 32 00:02:43,200 --> 00:02:46,320 about Trump and Lindsey Graham are not wrong when they talk 33 00:02:46,320 --> 00:02:49,240 about her getting the highest ratings from all the liberal 34 00:02:49,240 --> 00:02:53,720 lefty groups. When she was in the Senate on 35 00:02:53,720 --> 00:02:56,120 something she scored a few points higher than Bernie. 36 00:02:57,360 --> 00:02:59,360 Of course, she doesn't probably want to talk about that right 37 00:02:59,360 --> 00:03:01,760 now because that's supposed to be a negative. 38 00:03:02,280 --> 00:03:05,360 Even though I have published these posters on my sub stack 39 00:03:05,440 --> 00:03:09,360 pointing out how the vast majority of Americans take the 40 00:03:09,360 --> 00:03:14,200 liberal progressive position on nearly every single issue from 41 00:03:14,280 --> 00:03:20,640 the death penalty to socialized medicine to you name it, our 42 00:03:20,640 --> 00:03:24,320 fellow Americans are much more quote liberal than the way they 43 00:03:24,320 --> 00:03:26,040 were described on the news media. 44 00:03:27,440 --> 00:03:30,920 Oh, we live in a 5050 country? No, we don't actually. 45 00:03:32,080 --> 00:03:37,960 No, the vast majority, and I'm talking upwards at least 5859% 46 00:03:37,960 --> 00:03:42,360 up to 80 or 90% want all the things that I'm sure many of you 47 00:03:42,360 --> 00:03:44,440 want. You're, you're not alone. 48 00:03:44,800 --> 00:03:48,840 We are the majority, the majority of Americans believe 49 00:03:49,120 --> 00:03:51,080 abortion should be completely legal. 50 00:03:51,440 --> 00:03:54,160 The majority of Americans want stronger gun control laws. 51 00:03:54,160 --> 00:03:57,480 The majority of Americans believe climate change is real 52 00:03:57,720 --> 00:03:59,840 and we need to do something about it. 53 00:03:59,840 --> 00:04:05,440 And it's not just climate folks. It's a much deeper problem that 54 00:04:05,440 --> 00:04:08,400 we need to address. If you don't know what I'm 55 00:04:08,400 --> 00:04:12,040 talking about, if you haven't seen Jeff Gibbs movie, I was the 56 00:04:12,040 --> 00:04:14,040 executive producer of it. It's called Planet of the 57 00:04:14,040 --> 00:04:17,079 Humans. Go on YouTube, you can watch it 58 00:04:17,079 --> 00:04:19,200 for free. I've got it up for free. 59 00:04:19,680 --> 00:04:23,480 Planet of the humans, The whole thing of what what we need to do 60 00:04:23,480 --> 00:04:26,960 to save this planet. That's never being discussed. 61 00:04:29,080 --> 00:04:31,720 You just go down all the issues. My point is, is that your fellow 62 00:04:31,720 --> 00:04:35,080 Americans agree with you if you believe in these things the way 63 00:04:35,080 --> 00:04:37,080 I'm stating them. The majority of Americans 64 00:04:37,160 --> 00:04:39,520 believe that there should be an Equal Rights Amendment for women 65 00:04:39,520 --> 00:04:42,880 in the Constitution. The majority of Americans are 66 00:04:42,880 --> 00:04:45,440 against war and the majority of Americans are against this war 67 00:04:45,440 --> 00:04:50,760 in Gaza, absolutely against it. Want a ceasefire right now? 68 00:04:50,760 --> 00:04:53,000 Every poll shows us. And yet, where are we? 69 00:04:53,640 --> 00:04:57,520 And I think this is when I refer to my despair right now is that 70 00:04:57,520 --> 00:05:01,160 I have spent numerous podcasts here and numerous columns I've 71 00:05:01,160 --> 00:05:04,880 written for my Sub Stack since October 7th of last year just 72 00:05:04,880 --> 00:05:07,600 really saying what Biden initially told Netanyahu. 73 00:05:07,960 --> 00:05:14,200 Don't do what we did after 911. Do not go crazy, do not start 74 00:05:14,200 --> 00:05:16,440 killing people, do not invade countries. 75 00:05:16,920 --> 00:05:23,760 It was wrong, it didn't work, misses the whole point. 76 00:05:24,920 --> 00:05:30,800 But of course Netanyahu just thinks Biden is a joke and spits 77 00:05:30,800 --> 00:05:35,080 in his face anytime he can. Then Biden just wipes it off and 78 00:05:35,080 --> 00:05:42,080 says spit again. But I've been asking Vice 79 00:05:42,080 --> 00:05:46,760 President Harris for these last number of months now to please 80 00:05:46,760 --> 00:05:51,400 separate herself from Joe Biden on this issue, to tell us, tell 81 00:05:51,400 --> 00:05:54,640 the American people that you're not going to continue this war, 82 00:05:56,360 --> 00:05:59,040 that not only is there going to be a ceasefire, we are going to 83 00:05:59,040 --> 00:06:00,920 make reparations. We are going to rebuild their 84 00:06:00,920 --> 00:06:05,280 homes and their hospitals and their schools, maybe someday 85 00:06:05,280 --> 00:06:08,840 tell them like we've had to do so many times throughout history 86 00:06:08,960 --> 00:06:10,360 and so many times that we haven't. 87 00:06:10,360 --> 00:06:14,560 From our genocide of the Native Americans to our enslaving human 88 00:06:14,560 --> 00:06:19,240 beings from the continent of Africa and on and on and on. 89 00:06:19,240 --> 00:06:21,440 Japanese internment camps in World War 2. 90 00:06:21,440 --> 00:06:25,280 And it's just this whole list of things, the way that we've used 91 00:06:25,280 --> 00:06:31,560 our prisons as camps to put away Black and brown people under the 92 00:06:31,560 --> 00:06:35,960 guise of justice, all of this stuff. 93 00:06:37,040 --> 00:06:41,600 And I've just asked Vice President Harris, please, you 94 00:06:41,600 --> 00:06:43,880 know, I, I tried to explain how, first of all, you're going to 95 00:06:43,880 --> 00:06:47,280 lose the state of Michigan if you don't stand up for 96 00:06:47,280 --> 00:06:50,960 Palestinian lives. We live in a state with 200 to 97 00:06:50,960 --> 00:06:55,560 300,000 Arab Americans, many of whom most of whom are Muslim, 98 00:06:55,880 --> 00:07:00,120 not all, but the majority. That's a huge voting bloc in the 99 00:07:00,120 --> 00:07:03,880 state of Michigan. Biden and Harris won the Muslim 100 00:07:03,880 --> 00:07:08,160 Arab vote in Michigan in 2020, 70%. 101 00:07:08,560 --> 00:07:11,800 They got 70% of the Arab Muslim vote in Michigan. 102 00:07:12,800 --> 00:07:16,160 There was a poll back in May showing that that support had 103 00:07:16,160 --> 00:07:19,800 dropped to 12%. I've seen a more recent poll 104 00:07:19,800 --> 00:07:23,680 where once Biden was out and Harris was in, it shot up. 105 00:07:23,680 --> 00:07:27,160 It got better. It never got back up to 70%, but 106 00:07:27,160 --> 00:07:30,560 maybe around 40%, I think a month or so ago. 107 00:07:30,960 --> 00:07:34,760 But that was still the people were still hoping that she would 108 00:07:34,760 --> 00:07:36,720 do the right thing. She's going to say something she 109 00:07:36,720 --> 00:07:40,680 was going to break. But then it became clear that 110 00:07:40,680 --> 00:07:43,080 the Democratic convention, they were not going to allow any 111 00:07:43,080 --> 00:07:46,080 Palestinian American to speak, even though they were all there. 112 00:07:46,080 --> 00:07:50,680 They were legal convention goers, delegates in favor of 113 00:07:50,680 --> 00:07:54,200 Biden and now in favor of her. Didn't matter. 114 00:07:55,560 --> 00:07:59,160 Her first rally that she held in an airport hangar there at the 115 00:07:59,160 --> 00:08:03,760 Detroit airport, which is actually not in Detroit, but out 116 00:08:03,760 --> 00:08:08,480 in the Dearborn area, out in the area with the 200,000 to 300,000 117 00:08:08,480 --> 00:08:13,920 Muslims and Arab Americans. She's literally when she gave 118 00:08:13,920 --> 00:08:18,120 that first speech where the protesters showed up and I know 119 00:08:18,120 --> 00:08:21,080 the people that were there that were yelling at her to say 120 00:08:21,080 --> 00:08:26,680 something about Palestine to stop the war and she got all all 121 00:08:26,680 --> 00:08:29,840 upset at them. Remember that I'm speaking. 122 00:08:30,040 --> 00:08:33,960 I'm speaking here. This is not your I yes, I hear 123 00:08:33,960 --> 00:08:36,000 you, but this is not your time to speak. 124 00:08:36,000 --> 00:08:38,120 It's my time. Remember that. 125 00:08:39,200 --> 00:08:43,440 And she was applauded by all the all the democratic tough. 126 00:08:44,000 --> 00:08:46,320 That's who you want for commander in chief. 127 00:08:46,800 --> 00:08:48,840 She shot those protesters right down. 128 00:08:49,000 --> 00:08:51,160 Well, let me tell you who's standing there in that group, 129 00:08:51,400 --> 00:08:54,200 all right? I would say upwards to half of 130 00:08:54,200 --> 00:08:57,240 them were Jewish. They were organized by Jewish 131 00:08:57,240 --> 00:09:01,440 Voice for Peace. And of course, because we were 132 00:09:01,440 --> 00:09:06,840 literally just 2-3 miles from one of the many mosques in the 133 00:09:06,840 --> 00:09:12,200 area, standing there right there, essentially in an Arab 134 00:09:12,200 --> 00:09:15,600 American neighborhood, telling who she thought were probably 135 00:09:15,600 --> 00:09:19,120 mostly Arab Americans because they were shouting in favor of 136 00:09:19,120 --> 00:09:22,320 the Palestinians, telling them to shut the hell up. 137 00:09:23,840 --> 00:09:26,360 And I just said, why don't talk to them that way. 138 00:09:26,600 --> 00:09:28,400 These are people who've lost relatives. 139 00:09:28,880 --> 00:09:30,880 These are people who've lost people in their community. 140 00:09:31,040 --> 00:09:34,480 They've been killed and not just killed by Netanyahu. 141 00:09:35,040 --> 00:09:38,600 They've been killed by me and you listening to me. 142 00:09:39,440 --> 00:09:43,920 Our tax dollars pay for every single God damn bullet and bomb, 143 00:09:44,760 --> 00:09:48,080 every carpet bombing of these neighborhoods in Gaza. 144 00:09:48,920 --> 00:09:51,160 You funded it. I funded it. 145 00:09:51,880 --> 00:09:56,120 To me, there's no difference than if if you or I had paid for 146 00:09:56,120 --> 00:10:00,120 the airline tickets for the 19 hijackers on 9/11. 147 00:10:01,000 --> 00:10:02,040 Oh, yeah. But we didn't. 148 00:10:02,120 --> 00:10:04,720 We didn't fly the planes into the buildings. 149 00:10:05,120 --> 00:10:07,560 We, we didn't kill anybody on that day. 150 00:10:07,560 --> 00:10:10,000 We we just paid for the airline tickets. 151 00:10:10,560 --> 00:10:14,920 Yeah, of course I know if this, it sounds nonsensical because, 152 00:10:15,560 --> 00:10:20,280 and I'm being obviously facetious, but still, folks, if 153 00:10:20,280 --> 00:10:25,320 you help to fund a mass slaughter, you are the killer. 154 00:10:26,480 --> 00:10:29,360 Not just the person that flew the plane, not just the person 155 00:10:29,360 --> 00:10:31,840 who dropped the bombs, you and I. 156 00:10:33,280 --> 00:10:35,560 And you can try to shake your head and get away from that as 157 00:10:35,560 --> 00:10:38,320 much as possible. Oh, no, this, it's, it's, it's 158 00:10:38,320 --> 00:10:39,680 not us. It's Netanyahu. 159 00:10:39,680 --> 00:10:43,240 It's is Israel. It's a yeah, they can't do it 160 00:10:43,240 --> 00:10:44,640 without us. We're the bank. 161 00:10:44,920 --> 00:10:51,160 We fund the whole damn thing. And I have begged and begged and 162 00:10:51,160 --> 00:10:52,320 begged. And you've listened to me on 163 00:10:52,320 --> 00:10:55,200 these podcasts. Vice President Harris, please 164 00:10:55,200 --> 00:10:58,840 just say that or I get it. You're, you're still, you're 165 00:10:58,840 --> 00:11:01,760 being loyal to the president. You are only the vice president. 166 00:11:02,000 --> 00:11:05,320 You have no power. You have no legislative power 167 00:11:05,320 --> 00:11:07,080 except breaking a tie in the Senate. 168 00:11:07,080 --> 00:11:10,440 That's it. It's all the Constitution allows 169 00:11:10,440 --> 00:11:12,720 you to do. You're just there in case the 170 00:11:12,720 --> 00:11:17,920 president can't finish his term. Frankly, I wish that Joe Biden 171 00:11:17,920 --> 00:11:21,520 had done what I had suggested after that debate, which is not 172 00:11:21,520 --> 00:11:26,400 just step aside, but actually resigned now, resigned now and 173 00:11:26,400 --> 00:11:30,280 let her, because she's going to be the president, let her start 174 00:11:30,280 --> 00:11:32,080 to do the job that needs to get done. 175 00:11:32,800 --> 00:11:35,720 And she has a chance of not winning by losing Michigan. 176 00:11:35,880 --> 00:11:41,160 Because the 100, and I don't know how many it is, 140,000 177 00:11:41,280 --> 00:11:45,280 votes that Biden and her got back in 2020 from the Arab 178 00:11:45,280 --> 00:11:51,160 American community in Michigan. That 140,000 on a good day now 179 00:11:51,200 --> 00:11:55,520 might end up being 40,000. It could be 100,000. 180 00:11:55,800 --> 00:11:58,320 But we're definitely going to lose 40,000 votes, my friends, 181 00:11:58,320 --> 00:12:01,920 and there's no way around that. Hillary lost Michigan by 10,000 182 00:12:01,920 --> 00:12:05,160 votes. Kamala Harris is going to get 183 00:12:05,160 --> 00:12:09,360 40,000 less votes. Nobody I know in Michigan, no 184 00:12:09,360 --> 00:12:13,200 politician, nobody who's part of the political apparatus will say 185 00:12:13,200 --> 00:12:16,040 now that that that's a sure bet that she can win Michigan. 186 00:12:16,440 --> 00:12:18,240 I mean, I've been doing my own organizing. 187 00:12:18,240 --> 00:12:22,360 I've been working overtime on this of trying to get out the 188 00:12:22,360 --> 00:12:25,880 vote in Michigan, trying to make up for those 40,000 votes. 189 00:12:25,880 --> 00:12:29,960 We're not going to get by. Well, there's two groups that 190 00:12:29,960 --> 00:12:32,280 we're appealing to, my friends and I and my team. 191 00:12:33,280 --> 00:12:36,880 One, the non voters, the people that traditionally they're 192 00:12:36,880 --> 00:12:38,400 registered to vote, but they don't vote. 193 00:12:38,680 --> 00:12:41,360 It's about 2 million people in Michigan that don't vote. 194 00:12:41,760 --> 00:12:45,560 We only need, you know, 40,000 of them to show up and make up 195 00:12:45,560 --> 00:12:49,560 the difference. Or the 75,000 back in 2016 when 196 00:12:49,560 --> 00:12:53,800 Hillary lost Michigan because 75,000 people, mostly in 197 00:12:53,800 --> 00:12:58,120 Democratic districts, 75,000 people showed up to vote. 198 00:12:58,120 --> 00:13:01,200 They actually showed up to vote and they voted for every 199 00:13:01,200 --> 00:13:04,680 candidate position on the ballot except for president. 200 00:13:04,680 --> 00:13:07,400 They left the top line blank because of course they hated 201 00:13:07,400 --> 00:13:12,120 Trump and they couldn't stand Hillary or they were offended by 202 00:13:12,120 --> 00:13:16,160 Hillary just deciding to hell with Michigan, refused to come 203 00:13:16,160 --> 00:13:19,560 and do a single campaign day in the state of Michigan. 204 00:13:19,560 --> 00:13:21,720 Same thing with that. She did the Wisconsin. 205 00:13:21,720 --> 00:13:25,680 And no matter how much we tried to warn them that that was going 206 00:13:25,680 --> 00:13:32,040 to kill the vote, a state that Obama had won twice, they 207 00:13:32,040 --> 00:13:34,440 wouldn't listen to us. She wouldn't come to Michigan. 208 00:13:34,720 --> 00:13:38,480 The Democratic Party and her campaign, I mean, they were so 209 00:13:38,480 --> 00:13:41,720 petty. They would not allow any yard 210 00:13:41,720 --> 00:13:43,640 signs to be sent to the state of Michigan. 211 00:13:43,960 --> 00:13:48,040 Because as I was told later by one of the campaign Co chairs, 212 00:13:48,320 --> 00:13:51,480 the campaign in Brooklyn, the headquarters of the Hillary 213 00:13:51,480 --> 00:13:55,360 campaign, said that they didn't want signs up and down the road 214 00:13:55,360 --> 00:13:57,440 because they would remind the Trump voters that they got to 215 00:13:57,440 --> 00:13:58,640 get out there and vote for Trump. 216 00:13:58,960 --> 00:14:00,560 I swear to God that's what we were told. 217 00:14:01,720 --> 00:14:05,000 And so no yard signs for us. And of course, Hillary lost by 218 00:14:05,000 --> 00:14:08,640 two votes per precinct, on average 2 votes per precinct in 219 00:14:08,640 --> 00:14:09,920 the state of Michigan. That's all. 220 00:14:11,960 --> 00:14:14,600 So we're trying to get some of those people that left that top 221 00:14:14,600 --> 00:14:18,240 line blank on the ballot back in 2016 to make sure they get out 222 00:14:18,240 --> 00:14:20,000 and vote. And we're trying to get the 223 00:14:20,000 --> 00:14:23,040 people that are traditionally non voters but lean toward the 224 00:14:23,040 --> 00:14:26,040 Democrats when they have voted to get them out to vote. 225 00:14:26,600 --> 00:14:27,680 And people write to me every day. 226 00:14:27,680 --> 00:14:31,200 I get these letters from people saying, Mike, Mike, you got to 227 00:14:31,200 --> 00:14:34,600 tell the Arab Americans in Detroit they got to vote. 228 00:14:35,080 --> 00:14:39,160 Trump's worse, Trump's worse. Surely they see this. 229 00:14:40,400 --> 00:14:43,320 Trump is worse. Look what he did. 230 00:14:43,320 --> 00:14:49,480 The Muslim travel ban. The Muslim travel ban. 231 00:14:49,680 --> 00:14:52,880 I've forgotten all about that. Yeah. 232 00:14:53,840 --> 00:14:58,360 Here's one of my one of my Muslim friends in Flint said to 233 00:14:58,360 --> 00:15:01,200 me about that. Yeah, yeah, Trump. 234 00:15:01,200 --> 00:15:03,520 That's what he did. He wouldn't let us fly in a 235 00:15:03,520 --> 00:15:08,200 plane. That's about as bad as it got 236 00:15:08,200 --> 00:15:10,840 with Trump. Of course, this person is not 237 00:15:10,840 --> 00:15:14,400 voting for Trump, is not a Trump supporter, but just just the way 238 00:15:14,400 --> 00:15:19,720 white people talk down to people of color, and in this case, 239 00:15:19,720 --> 00:15:23,800 Arabs and Muslims. Trump's worse, Trump's worse. 240 00:15:23,800 --> 00:15:30,960 You've got to vote for Harris. No, no, they don't have to vote 241 00:15:30,960 --> 00:15:33,600 for Harris. It's insulting. 242 00:15:34,160 --> 00:15:37,800 I would never ask an Arab American, especially in 243 00:15:37,800 --> 00:15:42,920 Michigan, or a Muslim American to vote for Vice President 244 00:15:42,920 --> 00:15:45,720 Harris right now. You really, you would do that? 245 00:15:46,200 --> 00:15:49,720 You would actually tell them after they literally have lost 246 00:15:49,720 --> 00:15:55,600 family members in Gaza or or Lebanon OR in the West Bank, 247 00:15:58,000 --> 00:16:01,560 people they know or, or not. Maybe it's not the family, it's 248 00:16:01,560 --> 00:16:04,240 the extended family. Maybe it's friends, it's other 249 00:16:04,240 --> 00:16:06,240 relatives, it's the Arab community. 250 00:16:07,000 --> 00:16:08,200 But they should just forget that. 251 00:16:08,720 --> 00:16:11,280 They got to get over that. Yeah, these, you know, these 252 00:16:11,440 --> 00:16:15,200 Arabs in Detroit, they got to get over all these Arabs that 253 00:16:15,440 --> 00:16:18,880 we're killing with our money, our bombs, our bullets. 254 00:16:18,880 --> 00:16:21,000 You just got to get over it because, you know, Trump's 255 00:16:21,000 --> 00:16:23,840 worse. Worse for who? 256 00:16:25,520 --> 00:16:27,400 I mean, I'm asking this seriously to any of you. 257 00:16:27,720 --> 00:16:32,560 If if if the United States government had been bombing a 258 00:16:32,560 --> 00:16:36,480 place where you are from or your family is from some other 259 00:16:36,480 --> 00:16:40,240 country, what would you do? Just, ah, just ignore it. 260 00:16:40,240 --> 00:16:43,960 It's all now we got to yeah, we got to raise the minimum, 261 00:16:43,960 --> 00:16:47,320 minimum wage. She's going to make sure 262 00:16:47,320 --> 00:16:50,400 marijuana is legal. Would you really say that to the 263 00:16:50,400 --> 00:16:54,320 family that's lost people in this slaughter in Gaza? 264 00:16:55,000 --> 00:16:56,520 I don't think you would, would you? 265 00:16:57,080 --> 00:16:58,280 And you. But you don't want me to do 266 00:16:58,280 --> 00:16:59,440 that, right? You don't want me out there 267 00:16:59,880 --> 00:17:03,160 campaigning in Detroit and Flint trying to get Arabs and Muslims 268 00:17:03,280 --> 00:17:05,839 to vote for the vice president of the Biden Harris 269 00:17:05,839 --> 00:17:09,079 administration. You want me to ask them that I 270 00:17:09,079 --> 00:17:13,680 want white boy here, white boy going to going to talk to to 271 00:17:13,680 --> 00:17:17,359 Arab and Muslim brown people. You know, you got to listen to 272 00:17:17,359 --> 00:17:20,800 me on this one. Do some whites planning to them 273 00:17:21,079 --> 00:17:24,960 why Trump is worse. First of all, you don't think 274 00:17:24,960 --> 00:17:28,840 they know who he is. He's the epitome of what they're 275 00:17:28,840 --> 00:17:31,560 used to when it comes to white people. 276 00:17:33,200 --> 00:17:37,840 They, they have Trump's number. Trump got a third of the vote, 277 00:17:37,960 --> 00:17:41,680 the Arab and Muslim vote in Michigan, about 30%, less than 278 00:17:41,680 --> 00:17:45,840 30% actually, in 2020. You know what he's polling right 279 00:17:45,840 --> 00:17:48,520 now? Less than 1/3 of the Arab Muslim 280 00:17:48,520 --> 00:17:52,000 vote in Michigan. He has not picked up really 281 00:17:52,000 --> 00:17:56,400 hardly a single vote from this. That's not how Arabs and Muslims 282 00:17:56,400 --> 00:17:59,000 in Michigan are responding. Oh, I'm going to vote for Trump. 283 00:18:00,120 --> 00:18:02,600 No, they're either not going to vote at all. 284 00:18:02,840 --> 00:18:04,960 Well, that's the same as voting for Trump. 285 00:18:06,080 --> 00:18:11,840 No, it says they're in horrible grief right now and they are 286 00:18:11,840 --> 00:18:19,120 saddled with this awful, awful predicament and their conscience 287 00:18:19,120 --> 00:18:23,840 is not allowing them to go and put an X beside the name of the 288 00:18:23,840 --> 00:18:25,720 man. Or in this case, now she's 289 00:18:25,720 --> 00:18:30,560 running the woman who killed my family. 290 00:18:32,640 --> 00:18:37,640 Boy, it takes a lot of nerve for white people to think that they 291 00:18:37,640 --> 00:18:40,720 know better what's for. If they don't understand, Mike, 292 00:18:40,720 --> 00:18:44,200 that Trump's going to be a lot worse for the Arab Americans. 293 00:18:45,720 --> 00:18:50,240 Shut the fuck up. Wow. 294 00:18:52,320 --> 00:18:57,720 This could be easily and very simply dealt with, Just would 295 00:18:57,720 --> 00:19:03,880 require, as I've suggested publicly as I have put my $0.02 296 00:19:03,880 --> 00:19:07,240 into the people in the campaign, the people that know her. 297 00:19:08,400 --> 00:19:14,520 Just go to Detroit, stand on the stage with two Jewish leaders, 2 298 00:19:14,520 --> 00:19:19,960 Arab leaders, 2 Muslim leaders, and all of you together call for 299 00:19:19,960 --> 00:19:23,960 peace, call for an end to the war, call for a ceasefire. 300 00:19:25,120 --> 00:19:26,960 Yes, the hostages will be released. 301 00:19:26,960 --> 00:19:30,640 Yes, the Palestinian political prisoners and suffering in 302 00:19:30,640 --> 00:19:34,320 Israeli jails, they'll be released and then let's all 303 00:19:34,320 --> 00:19:37,000 commit ourselves to fixing this problem once and for all. 304 00:19:37,960 --> 00:19:42,520 That's all it would take. An apology might help, but I 305 00:19:42,520 --> 00:19:45,480 know that my I might be asking for a bit too much there. 306 00:19:45,480 --> 00:19:50,640 But eventually, sometimes we come around 100 years later, 307 00:19:51,280 --> 00:19:54,200 apologize to the Japanese we put in those internment camps. 308 00:19:57,000 --> 00:20:01,840 But now, tonight, this despair that I have. 309 00:20:02,560 --> 00:20:04,200 I don't think she's going to say anything. 310 00:20:05,440 --> 00:20:08,240 I don't think she's going to do anything before the election. 311 00:20:09,120 --> 00:20:12,920 I think that they, her advisors, people have convinced her that 312 00:20:12,920 --> 00:20:17,240 she doesn't need to do that. And some people have written me, 313 00:20:17,280 --> 00:20:18,960 Mic, you know that she does that. 314 00:20:18,960 --> 00:20:20,840 Then she's going to upset the Jewish voters. 315 00:20:20,840 --> 00:20:23,120 And then then she's lost the Jewish vote. 316 00:20:23,680 --> 00:20:27,720 Lose the Jewish vote. No, folks, what country do you 317 00:20:27,720 --> 00:20:31,640 live in? The Jewish vote next to African 318 00:20:31,640 --> 00:20:35,240 Americans, the Jewish vote is the largest ethnic vote for 319 00:20:35,240 --> 00:20:38,560 Democrats. The Jewish vote. 320 00:20:38,560 --> 00:20:44,080 Historically, the Jewish Americans have led many of the 321 00:20:44,080 --> 00:20:49,360 fights for civil rights, for justice, for freedom, for doing 322 00:20:49,360 --> 00:20:55,560 the right thing. We have all been blessed with so 323 00:20:55,560 --> 00:21:01,560 many Jewish activists, political leaders, fighters for the cause. 324 00:21:02,360 --> 00:21:05,520 No, no, they're not going to vote for Trump. 325 00:21:05,800 --> 00:21:08,640 Yes, 30. I know 30% of Jews last time 326 00:21:08,640 --> 00:21:13,840 voted for Trump and I get 30% this time will vote for Trump. 327 00:21:14,280 --> 00:21:18,120 And you know, I know. Then you go no, that why, why 328 00:21:18,120 --> 00:21:19,400 would they? What would they do? 329 00:21:19,480 --> 00:21:24,040 They're they're Jewish people. Why would they vote for this? 330 00:21:24,040 --> 00:21:29,240 Guy's a fascist. OK, look, you're not Canadians, 331 00:21:29,240 --> 00:21:30,160 OK? You're Americans. 332 00:21:30,160 --> 00:21:31,960 So, you know, I don't need to explain this, right? 333 00:21:31,960 --> 00:21:34,280 We're different. We're different. 334 00:21:35,040 --> 00:21:41,120 Sometimes we're a little slow on the uptake, you know, But some 335 00:21:41,120 --> 00:21:43,680 things also just can't be explained about who we are and 336 00:21:43,680 --> 00:21:46,400 why we behave the way we do. And that maybe that is one of 337 00:21:46,400 --> 00:21:49,240 them. But my friends, the 70% of the 338 00:21:49,240 --> 00:21:52,160 Jewish community that supports the Democrats, that, that 339 00:21:52,160 --> 00:21:55,920 support Kamala Harris, they are going to be there for her no 340 00:21:55,920 --> 00:21:58,920 matter what. And if they maybe don't like the 341 00:21:58,920 --> 00:22:01,680 fact that so many Arab Americans are going to sit this one out, 342 00:22:02,640 --> 00:22:04,040 they're also going to understand. 343 00:22:04,240 --> 00:22:06,320 Am I the only person that knows who's not? 344 00:22:06,320 --> 00:22:09,440 I mean, I'm not Jewish, but that my only one knows Jewish. 345 00:22:09,440 --> 00:22:12,800 Do you, anybody listening to me, know any, any of your Jewish 346 00:22:12,800 --> 00:22:16,160 brothers and sisters, people you work with, people you go to 347 00:22:16,160 --> 00:22:19,600 school with? And yes, it's been a hard time 348 00:22:19,600 --> 00:22:24,200 for them since the massacre of, of people there in the southern 349 00:22:24,200 --> 00:22:26,480 Israel a year ago. Very hard. 350 00:22:27,440 --> 00:22:29,400 They've been told their whole lives that they've got a safe 351 00:22:29,400 --> 00:22:32,360 space on this planet finally that will protect them. 352 00:22:33,040 --> 00:22:36,880 And they learned a year and a week ago that that was a lie, 353 00:22:39,080 --> 00:22:42,520 that they're not safe. And they're not safe not because 354 00:22:42,520 --> 00:22:47,120 of external forces, but because of the people whose either land 355 00:22:47,120 --> 00:22:51,920 is being occupied or taken from them by the settlers or they are 356 00:22:51,920 --> 00:22:56,800 they they are mostly afraid. And you know, you can read this 357 00:22:56,800 --> 00:22:59,960 in the Israeli press. It's a number of letters to the 358 00:22:59,960 --> 00:23:04,080 editor, op eds whatever. They are afraid of Benjamin 359 00:23:04,080 --> 00:23:06,360 Netanyahu. They are afraid that this one 360 00:23:06,360 --> 00:23:12,080 individual and his crazy religious, ultra religious real 361 00:23:12,080 --> 00:23:14,520 out there. I don't know what we have to 362 00:23:14,520 --> 00:23:17,520 compare them to here, but we have our our white Christian 363 00:23:17,520 --> 00:23:20,960 nationalists or whatever. They have that too in Israel. 364 00:23:21,840 --> 00:23:25,440 And he's formed a war cabinet of these crazies. 365 00:23:25,520 --> 00:23:26,960 And I've hear from enough of them. 366 00:23:26,960 --> 00:23:32,120 And I hear from my friends that work in this industry who 367 00:23:32,120 --> 00:23:35,240 thanked me for these podcasts and for saying the things I've 368 00:23:35,240 --> 00:23:39,360 been saying on MSNBC and on CNN when they let me on. 369 00:23:39,360 --> 00:23:43,960 And they still are letting me on thank God to say these things. 370 00:23:44,320 --> 00:23:49,520 But I got a a really nice note from a long time friend of mine 371 00:23:49,520 --> 00:23:53,680 who's Jewish and works in the film industry here. 372 00:23:54,160 --> 00:23:57,120 And he says thank you for saving Israel. 373 00:23:58,280 --> 00:24:02,040 And I'm like, what? And then he goes on and he 374 00:24:02,040 --> 00:24:07,400 writes that Netanyahu is destroying us and you trying to 375 00:24:07,400 --> 00:24:09,600 stop this war, trying to stop this slaughter. 376 00:24:09,960 --> 00:24:13,920 And anybody, anybody working for peace, Jews, Arabs, just 377 00:24:14,200 --> 00:24:18,280 progressives, young people, students, you are all the ones 378 00:24:18,280 --> 00:24:21,640 who are are going to save the Jewish people from this 379 00:24:22,000 --> 00:24:28,800 incredible, incredible act of war crimes that have been 380 00:24:28,800 --> 00:24:32,040 committed here in our name, in our name as Jews. 381 00:24:35,280 --> 00:24:38,400 I know, I've listened to this. I've listened to the despair 382 00:24:40,120 --> 00:24:44,520 that what they've done is disparage the good name of those 383 00:24:44,720 --> 00:24:50,280 who perished in the Holocaust and by using them, by using 384 00:24:50,280 --> 00:24:54,280 those who've suffered in the past, suffered through centuries 385 00:24:54,600 --> 00:24:56,480 because simply because they were Jewish. 386 00:24:58,520 --> 00:25:00,760 And to use them in this suffering as some sort of 387 00:25:00,760 --> 00:25:05,320 justification for killing people, for taking their land. 388 00:25:08,200 --> 00:25:11,080 As I've pointed out to you and read it to you here on this 389 00:25:11,080 --> 00:25:15,600 podcast, River to the sea, the original language of that, you 390 00:25:15,600 --> 00:25:19,000 can go right to the Likud party founding papers in Israel, 391 00:25:19,200 --> 00:25:22,680 Netanyahu's party. They don't say river to the sea. 392 00:25:22,680 --> 00:25:25,720 I think it's backwards. I think it's from the sea to the 393 00:25:26,080 --> 00:25:29,840 to the river Jordan. It's right there in their 394 00:25:29,840 --> 00:25:34,600 founding documents that they all of that land belongs to them, 395 00:25:35,440 --> 00:25:42,720 not the Arabs or Muslims. If Vice President Harris won't 396 00:25:43,120 --> 00:25:46,720 make it clear, and she should say all the other things she's 397 00:25:46,720 --> 00:25:50,040 been saying, the right of the Israeli people, the Jewish 398 00:25:50,040 --> 00:25:53,360 people, to survive, to defend themselves, absolutely. 399 00:25:54,600 --> 00:25:56,520 That's the majority of Americans. 400 00:25:56,520 --> 00:25:59,720 That's their position. They don't want anymore death. 401 00:25:59,720 --> 00:26:01,520 They don't want anymore October 7th. 402 00:26:01,520 --> 00:26:09,160 They don't want any of this. We had our chance to try to save 403 00:26:09,160 --> 00:26:12,080 people that were going to die in the Holocaust. 404 00:26:12,080 --> 00:26:13,640 We wouldn't let them into this country. 405 00:26:14,160 --> 00:26:17,160 That was us. And so when they were eventually 406 00:26:17,160 --> 00:26:20,040 killed, as I've said before and I'll say it again, no 407 00:26:20,040 --> 00:26:22,520 Palestinian put them into the ovens. 408 00:26:23,880 --> 00:26:28,600 Not a single Arab or Muslim constructed the ovens or the gas 409 00:26:28,600 --> 00:26:31,280 chambers that killed the victims of the Holocaust. 410 00:26:32,200 --> 00:26:36,800 They did not do this. It was done by us. 411 00:26:37,720 --> 00:26:40,880 Well, I know we weren't alive, but you know what I mean by us. 412 00:26:41,240 --> 00:26:47,400 White Christian Europeans committed that mass slaughter 413 00:26:47,680 --> 00:26:51,080 and it was aimed at wiping every Jew off the face of the earth. 414 00:26:51,880 --> 00:26:58,360 Done by white people, Christians, Europeans and 415 00:26:58,360 --> 00:27:03,840 descendants of Europeans and, and the mail I get and of course 416 00:27:03,840 --> 00:27:05,560 I belong to Jewish Voice for Peace. 417 00:27:05,560 --> 00:27:09,280 I belong to these Jewish peace groups and I support them. 418 00:27:09,560 --> 00:27:13,840 I support them financially, I support them by my presence. 419 00:27:15,920 --> 00:27:20,440 I think I'm required to as a white Christian descendant of 420 00:27:20,440 --> 00:27:23,440 Europeans. We're the only people. 421 00:27:23,440 --> 00:27:28,520 And you know, my Jewish friends, they know the only people they 422 00:27:28,520 --> 00:27:33,000 really have to fear is us, the white people, the Europeans, the 423 00:27:33,000 --> 00:27:37,440 Christians, and how this got turned into that the 424 00:27:37,440 --> 00:27:40,880 Palestinians other enemy or that somehow the Palestinians should 425 00:27:40,880 --> 00:27:45,200 give up their land to make up for the crimes of white 426 00:27:45,760 --> 00:27:50,880 Europeans. This is all so messed up. 427 00:27:53,600 --> 00:27:56,120 Vice President Harris, if you're listening to me right now, 428 00:27:56,960 --> 00:28:04,200 please, all you have to do, stand on the stage in Detroit 429 00:28:06,400 --> 00:28:11,480 with two Jewish leaders for peace, 2 Arab and Muslim leaders 430 00:28:11,960 --> 00:28:18,240 for peace and tell them that, that just as you told Stephen 431 00:28:18,240 --> 00:28:22,840 Colbert a week and a half ago when he asked you what's going 432 00:28:22,840 --> 00:28:25,520 to be the change with you in the White House, She said, well, the 433 00:28:25,520 --> 00:28:28,680 first change is going to be I'm not Joe Biden. 434 00:28:28,920 --> 00:28:31,600 That's what you said. You said I'm not Joe Biden. 435 00:28:32,920 --> 00:28:35,200 You need to tell American people what that means. 436 00:28:36,120 --> 00:28:39,440 Because I believe, and I have believed from what little I know 437 00:28:39,440 --> 00:28:45,520 of you, that you have a good heart, that you do not favor 438 00:28:45,520 --> 00:28:54,400 genocide, ethnic cleansing, settlements, and that you have 439 00:28:54,400 --> 00:28:58,240 been sickened by this whole end game. 440 00:28:59,480 --> 00:29:05,280 And that Netanyahu is a madman and you and I are funding the 441 00:29:05,280 --> 00:29:09,840 madman. And we can never escape that as 442 00:29:09,840 --> 00:29:12,280 long as we continue to do it. And we're doing it every single 443 00:29:12,280 --> 00:29:14,840 day. And the people are starving in 444 00:29:14,840 --> 00:29:17,840 Gaza and they don't have enough water to drink. 445 00:29:18,640 --> 00:29:24,760 And 17,000 to 20,000 children have been killed, babies, the 446 00:29:24,760 --> 00:29:28,960 elderly, thousands and thousands killed for nothing to do with 447 00:29:28,960 --> 00:29:33,400 October 7th. And now I see that. 448 00:29:33,400 --> 00:29:34,960 I don't think you're going to say anything. 449 00:29:36,120 --> 00:29:38,440 I think you think you can win this election either without 450 00:29:38,440 --> 00:29:40,800 Michigan or without the Arab vote. 451 00:29:43,600 --> 00:29:47,320 Don't need the Arab vote. Yeah, Mike, they're only 1% of 452 00:29:47,320 --> 00:29:54,400 the US population. Yeah, well, can you do math? 453 00:29:57,040 --> 00:30:00,400 330 million Americans and 1% of them are Arab. 454 00:30:01,160 --> 00:30:05,880 What's 1% of that? Well, let's see, 10% of 300 455 00:30:05,880 --> 00:30:12,480 million would be 30 million. So 1% would be 3 million. 456 00:30:14,280 --> 00:30:16,760 So anybody listening to me right now, do you think we can do 457 00:30:16,760 --> 00:30:19,440 without the three million Arab votes, Muslim votes in this 458 00:30:19,440 --> 00:30:21,000 country? Yeah, We don't need three. 459 00:30:21,320 --> 00:30:22,840 Yeah. Oh, no, this, this election, 460 00:30:22,840 --> 00:30:25,760 we're going to, this could be huge or we don't need them. 461 00:30:27,200 --> 00:30:29,960 We can just piss away. I mean, they're not going to all 462 00:30:29,960 --> 00:30:31,840 not vote. Like I said, Trump's going to 463 00:30:31,840 --> 00:30:35,320 get a third of them. But is that your attitude really 464 00:30:35,320 --> 00:30:38,200 that we don't need the 1% who are Arabs and Muslims? 465 00:30:40,000 --> 00:30:43,000 If you believe that, then you're the one reelecting Trump. 466 00:30:43,320 --> 00:30:45,600 You're the one putting Trump back in the White House. 467 00:30:47,920 --> 00:30:51,840 So I'll continue to do what I've been doing to get out the non 468 00:30:51,840 --> 00:30:55,920 voters in Michigan to make up for the 40,000, at least 40,000 469 00:30:55,920 --> 00:30:59,360 Arab votes that Kamala Harris is not going to get that she got 470 00:30:59,360 --> 00:31:04,640 back in 2020. And I will try to do what I can 471 00:31:04,640 --> 00:31:09,840 to reach out to the 75,000 mostly Democratic voters who did 472 00:31:09,840 --> 00:31:12,800 not vote for president in 2016. They voted for every other 473 00:31:13,160 --> 00:31:15,480 politician on the ballot, but not for president because they 474 00:31:15,480 --> 00:31:18,480 couldn't stand Hillary and they definitely couldn't stand Trump. 475 00:31:18,480 --> 00:31:21,240 So they just left it blank. You can't leave it blank this 476 00:31:21,240 --> 00:31:23,640 time. And I and I'm and if you're 477 00:31:23,640 --> 00:31:25,880 still, if you're people are screaming at me now. 478 00:31:25,880 --> 00:31:29,160 And Mike quit telling them that they've got to vote or that 479 00:31:29,160 --> 00:31:33,200 they've got to vote for Harris. But again, I don't. 480 00:31:33,200 --> 00:31:40,000 Do I have to remind? Can you not tell by my syntax? 481 00:31:40,080 --> 00:31:43,000 I don't know that, that you know, I'm, you know, I'm white, 482 00:31:43,000 --> 00:31:44,520 right? I'm a I'm a white boy. 483 00:31:44,840 --> 00:31:47,400 I'm a white guy. Yeah. 484 00:31:47,960 --> 00:31:50,920 I think just on this, on this one issue alone, for instance, 485 00:31:51,240 --> 00:31:55,640 because I don't have a uterus, because I will not be forced to 486 00:31:55,640 --> 00:32:02,480 carry a fetus to term against my will for nine months to birth a 487 00:32:02,480 --> 00:32:08,000 baby that I did not choose or want to have. 488 00:32:10,560 --> 00:32:11,960 I'll never have to go through that. 489 00:32:12,280 --> 00:32:15,720 And if you think that, I don't think that my vote, that I have 490 00:32:15,720 --> 00:32:18,840 to come down on the side of of the majority gender, the women 491 00:32:18,840 --> 00:32:23,840 of this country to stop what Trump's court and what Trump is 492 00:32:23,840 --> 00:32:25,920 doing has done and will continue to do. 493 00:32:27,120 --> 00:32:29,680 Yeah, very easy for me to say. Oh, yeah, yeah, I'm going to. 494 00:32:30,160 --> 00:32:33,840 I'm voting green this time. I don't. 495 00:32:33,840 --> 00:32:36,320 I didn't mean that to mock people who are voting Green. 496 00:32:36,320 --> 00:32:38,560 I respect you. I have voted green. 497 00:32:39,120 --> 00:32:40,880 You're voting your conscience. I get it. 498 00:32:41,520 --> 00:32:45,000 It makes you feel good. I boy, I get that the, the need 499 00:32:45,000 --> 00:32:46,240 to want to feel better right now. 500 00:32:46,240 --> 00:32:51,920 I get that too. But I also, I also have to, I 501 00:32:51,920 --> 00:32:58,440 think, as a white person, as a white male, subjugate my vote to 502 00:32:58,440 --> 00:33:02,960 the will of those who are suffering because they don't 503 00:33:02,960 --> 00:33:07,400 have my privilege. You know, my other sister, she 504 00:33:07,800 --> 00:33:13,000 teaches in a Community College in an American city where, you 505 00:33:13,000 --> 00:33:16,320 know, the majority of her students are, are black and 506 00:33:16,320 --> 00:33:22,160 brown Asian Americans. She tells me. 507 00:33:22,160 --> 00:33:27,000 I heard when Trump was president for four years how much harder 508 00:33:27,000 --> 00:33:29,840 they had it. And they will have it really 509 00:33:29,840 --> 00:33:32,720 hard and bad this time. And white people listening to 510 00:33:32,720 --> 00:33:34,720 me. Are you saying that you are? 511 00:33:35,200 --> 00:33:36,400 Yeah. You're still going to. 512 00:33:37,000 --> 00:33:39,880 You're not going to think about doing something that might put 513 00:33:39,880 --> 00:33:43,880 Trump back in there or while Biden's just as bad. 514 00:33:43,880 --> 00:33:47,320 Mike, You know, genocide Joe. Yeah. 515 00:33:51,640 --> 00:33:54,160 Yeah. Well, that's your privilege, 516 00:33:54,160 --> 00:33:56,800 isn't it? Especially if you don't have a 517 00:33:56,800 --> 00:34:03,240 uterus, especially if if you don't have brown skin, black 518 00:34:03,240 --> 00:34:10,440 skin, Asian skin. It's a little easier with this 519 00:34:10,440 --> 00:34:13,639 white skin. Isn't it Still going strong 520 00:34:13,639 --> 00:34:22,320 after 250 years? USA we're #1 If you really stop 521 00:34:22,320 --> 00:34:31,320 and think about if, if you were a poor person, if you were raped 522 00:34:32,239 --> 00:34:37,440 and now pregnant, could you just as easily say it? 523 00:34:37,440 --> 00:34:40,159 Yeah, well, I'm, I'm not voting for Harris. 524 00:34:41,679 --> 00:34:47,679 I'm not voting for Harris. You know, I got to believe that 525 00:34:47,679 --> 00:34:51,320 you would have enough empathy and care in your heart where you 526 00:34:51,320 --> 00:34:55,920 would actually even maybe say, as I have said to myself, even 527 00:34:55,920 --> 00:34:59,440 though I don't take any of those positions regarding, you know, 528 00:34:59,440 --> 00:35:03,440 race or abortion or whatever, but still don't I have a 529 00:35:03,440 --> 00:35:08,160 responsibility to make sure that whatever we do in this election 530 00:35:08,160 --> 00:35:14,960 helps women, poor people, people who are not white? 531 00:35:16,360 --> 00:35:19,840 Don't we white people, especially white men, have a 532 00:35:19,840 --> 00:35:23,680 responsibility to go? No matter how much you feel, how 533 00:35:23,680 --> 00:35:27,800 strongly you feel about the so-called issues, isn't there 534 00:35:27,800 --> 00:35:31,240 really only one issue? And that's us as white people, 535 00:35:31,240 --> 00:35:35,600 as men, taking care of those who are the least among us, who have 536 00:35:35,600 --> 00:35:41,200 the least among us, who don't make what we make, who don't 537 00:35:41,200 --> 00:35:43,160 have the safety and security that we have. 538 00:35:45,720 --> 00:35:49,520 I don't understand this podcast of like he started out by 539 00:35:49,520 --> 00:35:54,120 saying, you know, that, that Harris is just not saying what 540 00:35:54,120 --> 00:36:00,720 needs to be said. Now he's telling us that we got 541 00:36:00,720 --> 00:36:05,360 to vote. For her, no, I'm not saying 542 00:36:05,360 --> 00:36:08,760 that. I'm just saying have a little 543 00:36:08,760 --> 00:36:13,880 consideration, acknowledge that you get to walk through the 544 00:36:13,880 --> 00:36:21,360 doors of this country as a white person, as a male, in ways that 545 00:36:22,160 --> 00:36:25,360 you know, and especially if you have a good job and a decent 546 00:36:25,360 --> 00:36:30,760 pay, in ways that others don't. And they don't have maybe enough 547 00:36:30,760 --> 00:36:33,720 votes. And so they need our votes. 548 00:36:34,240 --> 00:36:38,760 And so you've got to vote that way for them. 549 00:36:40,400 --> 00:36:43,080 That's all I'm saying. It's just a conscience thing. 550 00:36:43,080 --> 00:36:44,800 It's the stuff that runs through my head. 551 00:36:49,240 --> 00:36:51,920 Yes, I've spent months encouraging everybody to get out 552 00:36:51,920 --> 00:36:55,240 there, get the vote out there, Let's get Harrison, let's stop 553 00:36:55,240 --> 00:36:57,440 Trump. Let's put Trump, let's get him 554 00:36:57,680 --> 00:36:59,760 so that we don't have to see him ever again. 555 00:37:01,160 --> 00:37:03,080 Turn this into a landslide if we can. 556 00:37:03,080 --> 00:37:10,440 If it's possible. I need to pause for a few 557 00:37:10,440 --> 00:37:15,040 moments to thank my underwriters for today's podcast. 558 00:37:15,040 --> 00:37:17,640 Thank them for supporting my voice. 559 00:37:36,920 --> 00:37:43,160 First up, I want to thank Babel. As many of you know, language is 560 00:37:43,160 --> 00:37:45,680 one of the most important and profound ways we connect with 561 00:37:45,680 --> 00:37:48,560 one another. And learning a new language or 562 00:37:48,560 --> 00:37:52,360 second language, it's more than just learning how to say phone 563 00:37:52,600 --> 00:37:56,160 in Spanish. It puts you in the mindset that 564 00:37:56,280 --> 00:38:00,080 I am part of a bigger world and then that helps connect you to 565 00:38:00,080 --> 00:38:03,240 that bigger world. Babble is the language learning 566 00:38:03,240 --> 00:38:06,840 app that actually works. It's backed by science. 567 00:38:07,000 --> 00:38:10,080 It's designed by real people for real conversations. 568 00:38:10,280 --> 00:38:12,840 I'm a huge fan of Babel. I've used it. 569 00:38:12,880 --> 00:38:16,120 They've got quick 10 minute lessons so it's really easy to 570 00:38:16,120 --> 00:38:19,880 fit into your schedule, and they offer many ways to learn, from 571 00:38:20,040 --> 00:38:24,320 self study app lessons to podcasts to live classes with an 572 00:38:24,320 --> 00:38:26,920 actual teacher. They're available seven days a 573 00:38:26,920 --> 00:38:30,280 week at any time of day. And the best part, you can start 574 00:38:30,280 --> 00:38:33,440 speaking the new language in as little as three weeks. 575 00:38:33,440 --> 00:38:35,960 That means you can surprise your family at Thanksgiving dinner 576 00:38:35,960 --> 00:38:39,960 this year by giving thanks in Portuguese or Swedish or 577 00:38:39,960 --> 00:38:42,800 Indonesian.

I hope I haven't bummed too many 611 00:41:10,000 --> 00:41:14,000 people out tonight, but you know, we want to win November 612 00:41:14,000 --> 00:41:15,360 5th. It's two weeks away. 613 00:41:17,200 --> 00:41:21,200 And, and I mean, we should be doing some of these things I'm 614 00:41:21,200 --> 00:41:24,560 suggesting just for the moral reason of it's the righteous 615 00:41:24,560 --> 00:41:28,840 thing to do. But I realize not everybody 616 00:41:29,040 --> 00:41:30,800 thinks like me. I don't expect them to. 617 00:41:31,760 --> 00:41:34,800 Maybe some of you just want to stop Trump and that's all you're 618 00:41:34,800 --> 00:41:37,720 thinking about. Well, what we're talking about 619 00:41:37,720 --> 00:41:43,600 is this is how he stopped Trump. Maybe, Madam Vice President, if 620 00:41:43,600 --> 00:41:51,840 you're listening to this, please maybe just as a, as a favorite 621 00:41:51,840 --> 00:41:59,240 of me, just because I, and I don't, I think I'm a fairly good 622 00:41:59,240 --> 00:42:04,400 judge of people that I believe, I believe in who you are, who 623 00:42:04,400 --> 00:42:08,240 you really are. And I know why a certain group 624 00:42:08,440 --> 00:42:15,520 of people in this country don't like you and they have to be 625 00:42:15,520 --> 00:42:19,640 defeated on November 5th, and you have to be the one to do 626 00:42:19,640 --> 00:42:23,040 that. And then I got to believe that 627 00:42:23,040 --> 00:42:25,960 once in there, you are going to do the right thing. 628 00:42:27,920 --> 00:42:29,960 I believe that in my heart of hearts. 629 00:42:29,960 --> 00:42:36,200 I've told people this, we've got two weeks in a day now. 630 00:42:36,800 --> 00:42:42,320 That's it, two weeks in a day. Vice President Harris, you could 631 00:42:42,320 --> 00:42:47,080 make this a lot easier for all of us without giving up on any 632 00:42:47,080 --> 00:42:51,000 of the core beliefs you have, without having to to dump all 633 00:42:51,000 --> 00:42:53,960 over President Biden. You have to do any of that. 634 00:42:54,800 --> 00:43:00,840 You just have to tell us you know right from wrong and that 635 00:43:00,840 --> 00:43:03,920 while you will stand and protect our Jewish brothers and sisters, 636 00:43:05,320 --> 00:43:11,400 as we have and will do, but we will not support right wing 637 00:43:11,400 --> 00:43:16,440 fascist governments that commit genocide and ethnic cleansing, 638 00:43:18,440 --> 00:43:21,840 Not with our money, not with our lives. 639 00:43:23,360 --> 00:43:26,680 It's very simple. It's very simple and everybody 640 00:43:26,680 --> 00:43:28,880 will love you for it, or at least the majority of the people 641 00:43:28,880 --> 00:43:31,640 will love you for it, because all you're doing is taking the 642 00:43:31,640 --> 00:43:35,320 majority position of every poll that's been had. 643 00:43:35,600 --> 00:43:39,280 People in America want an end to this war now. 644 00:43:40,000 --> 00:43:48,200 Will you please join us, Kamala, will you please join us? 645 00:43:49,880 --> 00:43:57,800 That's all you have to do.
