They Wrote Themselves a Check

Season 3, Episode 21. The chaos was in a crockpot this week, and it came out fully cooked.

Jeezy, Manny, and Chuck are back to break down one of the most brazen moves in recent political memory: Trump’s $1.776 billion Anti-Weaponization Fund. Starting as a lawsuit over leaked tax returns, this deal ended with a taxpayer-funded slush fund controlled by Trump’s own DOJ, no public disclosure, no congressional oversight, and, as Chuck dropped, Trump and his family are no longer subject to IRS audits. Jeezy lays out the structure cleanly: Trump sued, Trump’s DOJ settled, Trump’s AG controls the fund, and Trump can remove fund members. The boys ask the only question that matters: Is this accountability, or is it a publicly funded grievance machine?

Then, the 2026 midterm primary map. Georgia’s Republicans can’t stop fighting each other, Kentucky buries the McConnell era, Pennsylvania shows Democrats what disciplined coalition-building actually looks like, and Manny drops the long game: Josh Shapiro and 2028. Plus, Chuck goes deep on the Thomas Massey primary numbers in Kentucky, and something in those numbers doesn’t smell right.

Jeezy debuts the Pardon the Eulogy segment to send off one Tulsi Gabbard, former Director of National Intelligence. The Pickle of the Week lands in Cuba, where 94-year-old Raul Castro just received a federal indictment for a 1996 shoot-down, and Jeezy breaks down exactly why the timing isn’t accidental.

In Spotlights: Manny reads the DNC’s 192-page post-2024 autopsy, and it’s not pretty, no mention of Gaza, Black male voters scapegoated, and DNC Chair Ken Martin disowned his own report. Chuck watches Elon Musk vs. Sam Altman and the Georgia judicial elections. Jeezy closes with a warning about RFK Jr. gutting the U.S. Preventive Services Task Force, the panel that keeps mammograms, colonoscopies, and cancer screenings free under the ACA.

And before we close, a major announcement: Pardon the Politics’ first-ever guest episode drops this Wednesday. NCAE President Tamika Walker Kelly comes to the pod, and if you care about public education, teachers’ rights, or the fight for North Carolina’s students, you need to tap in.

81
00:04:21.620 --> 00:04:34.680
Audio shared by Jeezy: They called me genius, and that didn't work. Then they said, he's totally brilliant, he's a vicious dictator, he wants to take over, that didn't work. And then they called me this, and then they said, they hit me with a bad one. He's a dumb person, D-U-M.

89
00:04:49.130 --> 00:04:50.390
Manny: And he thought.

90
00:04:50.390 --> 00:04:55.470

Jeezy: All those that had, acceptable accelerated reader scores.

101
00:05:20.590 --> 00:05:29.649
Audio shared by Jeezy: He's a dumb person. I said, Doctor, I don't mind being called a brilliant, total tyrant dictator, but I don't want to be called dumb.

110
00:05:49.680 --> 00:05:58.409
Manny: Now, Mr. Trump, when we say plethora, I know that that's more than the four letters you're used to, so it means that we have a lot.

111
00:05:58.410 --> 00:05:59.569

117
00:06:12.790 --> 00:06:24.680
Chairman of Chaos: Listen, I remember when I learned that word in my younger years, because I used to get in trouble all the time for saying two things. Shut up and stupid, and I often put them together.

118
00:06:24.760 --> 00:06:36.299
Chairman of Chaos: I used to get in trouble all the time, to the point… this is old school, y'all. If you… I recommend you do it nowadays, but most of y'all won't do it, because one, you don't have the right type of item in your house.

119
00:06:36.460 --> 00:06:43.820
Chairman of Chaos: But I used to get my mouth washed out with soap when I said it. My mama went and got a fresh bar. Fresh bar. Fresh bar, oh yeah, bruh.

00:06:43.820 --> 00:06:44.560

133
00:07:15.270 --> 00:07:18.890
Chairman of Chaos: Yeah, hey, or if we didn't have Irish Spring, we had zest.

134
00:07:18.890 --> 00:07:20.490
Manny: Obsessed.

135
00:07:20.490 --> 00:07:23.120
Chairman of Chaos: Zest fully, please.

136
00:07:23.120 --> 00:07:27.210

137
00:07:27.430 --> 00:07:29.629

Jeezy: I have my own money.

142
00:07:36.010 --> 00:07:41.209

143
00:07:42.340 --> 00:07:42.740
Jeezy: Mmm.

144
00:07:42.740 --> 00:07:43.840

Jeezy: You got some interesting doctor visits, bruh. I know a doctor had to hate to see you on his appointment schedule, bruh.

149
00:08:01.130 --> 00:08:04.520
Jeezy: That's a wild conversation to be having with your doctor.

150
00:08:04.910 --> 00:08:09.320
Jeezy: blood pressure, let them listen to your heart, breathe in a couple of times, and get out of there, man.

151
00:08:09.320 --> 00:08:10.590
Chairman of Chaos: I measured.

152
00:08:10.870 --> 00:08:12.979
Jeezy: I call you smart and dumb and all that.

153
00:08:12.980 --> 00:08:16.199
Manny: Imagine all the questions that Trump didn't tell us that he asked.

154
00:08:18.080 --> 00:08:18.410
Jeezy: like that.

155
00:08:18.410 --> 00:08:19.590
Chairman of Chaos: Cholesterol level.

156
00:08:20.590 --> 00:08:22.560
Jeezy: Definitely that cholesterol level.

157
00:08:23.040 --> 00:08:25.170
Jeezy: Definitely that clashed that number through the roof.

158
00:08:25.170 --> 00:08:26.070
Chairman of Chaos: Oh, bad.

159
00:08:26.930 --> 00:08:29.820
Jeezy: Well, you know, perfect way to start.

160
00:08:29.950 --> 00:08:37.530
Jeezy: the episode, and we're gonna keep right on with Trump, because something very interesting happened this past weekend. Trump did a deal.

161
00:08:37.809 --> 00:08:45.480
Jeezy: And we know when Trump does a deal, man, everybody wins. Everybody… wins. So…

162
00:08:45.780 --> 00:08:47.710
Manny: And if by everybody you mean…

163
00:08:48.200 --> 00:08:53.660
Manny: Nobody who's not with the name Trump, but yes, exactly. Agree 10,000%.

164
00:08:54.250 --> 00:08:55.340
Manny: Broad.

165
00:08:55.510 --> 00:08:59.570
Jeezy: So this past week, Trump made a deal with the IRS.

166
00:09:00.070 --> 00:09:04.240
Jeezy: And, this settlement… is a little…

167
00:09:04.630 --> 00:09:07.599
Jeezy: A little strange, but we gonna talk about it, man, so…

168
00:09:08.020 --> 00:09:09.180
Chairman of Chaos: Strange is nice.

169
00:09:09.180 --> 00:09:14.450
Manny: Yeah, that's probably the most gentle way of putting that.

170
00:09:14.600 --> 00:09:16.400
Chairman of Chaos: Rage is nice.

171
00:09:16.400 --> 00:09:17.040
Jeezy: landed, bro.

172
00:09:18.030 --> 00:09:33.239
Jeezy: So it started… this all started with Trump suing the IRS over the leak of his tax returns. But now, it has turned into a nearly, $1.8 billion anti-weaponization fund that, could pay people

173
00:09:33.580 --> 00:09:39.600
Jeezy: who claim they were targeted by the federal government. And I just want to say, for the record.

174
00:09:40.050 --> 00:09:41.930
Jeezy: I have been targeted.

175
00:09:42.320 --> 00:09:42.750
Manny: Do you…

176
00:09:42.750 --> 00:09:43.410
Jeezy: government.

177
00:09:43.410 --> 00:09:44.250
Manny: You too?

178
00:09:44.550 --> 00:09:46.109
Manny: Cause I…

179
00:09:46.110 --> 00:09:46.630
Jeezy: That'll wreck.

180
00:09:46.630 --> 00:09:49.470
Manny: They've been targeted by the federal government.

181
00:09:49.470 --> 00:09:50.919
Chairman of Chaos: When I was born.

182
00:09:51.340 --> 00:09:52.890
Jeezy: I was… bruh.

183
00:09:52.890 --> 00:09:57.010
Chairman of Chaos: And my birth certificate said… Black male.

184
00:09:57.240 --> 00:10:00.289
Chairman of Chaos: I, thus, have been targeted by the federal government.

185
00:10:01.670 --> 00:10:02.500
Jeezy: Still.

186
00:10:03.240 --> 00:10:04.310
Jeezy: Somebody else's confidential.

187
00:10:04.310 --> 00:10:05.950
Manny: common with Trump, man.

188
00:10:05.950 --> 00:10:07.130
Chairman of Chaos: How might I…

189
00:10:07.130 --> 00:10:12.229
Jeezy: How might I claim my earnings? But before we get into the details.

190
00:10:12.430 --> 00:10:17.439
Jeezy: Manny, when you hear anti-weaponization fun.

191
00:10:17.760 --> 00:10:22.259
Jeezy: Does that sound like justice, or does it sound like branding?

192
00:10:23.600 --> 00:10:29.720
Manny: I mean… Don't no one carry bigger branding when they speak than Donald John Trump?

193
00:10:30.290 --> 00:10:38.140
Manny: He… Marketing genius, but anti… what? What are we doing here?

194
00:10:38.330 --> 00:10:42.559
Manny: Right. And… To take it even further.

195
00:10:43.450 --> 00:10:56.219
Manny: like… so, we're gonna talk about the anti-weaponization funnel. Let's not forget in this whole deal that he got a… he got the bonus from the IRS and not having to do with anything. But going back, anti-weaponization.

196
00:10:57.260 --> 00:11:01.539
Manny: Who's weaponizing against who? Who is shooting at who?

197
00:11:01.710 --> 00:11:07.539
Manny: who has been… been hurt? Because from how they explained it to us.

198
00:11:07.540 --> 00:11:07.940
Chairman of Chaos: Yeah.

199
00:11:07.960 --> 00:11:12.379
Manny: It was people who had been targeted by the federal government.

200
00:11:12.500 --> 00:11:13.829
Manny: and the.

201
00:11:13.830 --> 00:11:15.030
Chairman of Chaos: My cousin Pookie.

202
00:11:15.070 --> 00:11:17.280
Manny: Right. Definitely puookie in them.

203
00:11:17.280 --> 00:11:18.680
Chairman of Chaos: Then my cousin pooped in there.

204
00:11:19.080 --> 00:11:25.899
Manny: But, like, the people that it was targeting, the January 6th protesters, the…

205
00:11:26.100 --> 00:11:28.400
Manny: You mean the people who committed treason?

206
00:11:28.760 --> 00:11:34.279
Manny: This is… We're giving… so, let me get this correct.

207
00:11:35.110 --> 00:11:39.780
Manny: We have an issue with immigrants coming over here to work.

208
00:11:40.080 --> 00:11:41.950
Chairman of Chaos: Paying taxes.

209
00:11:43.740 --> 00:11:45.520
Manny: But… they're bad.

210
00:11:45.850 --> 00:11:48.799
Manny: Yeah. But the people who are trying to overthrow government.

211
00:11:49.100 --> 00:11:49.770
Chairman of Chaos: Yeah?

212
00:11:50.150 --> 00:11:54.259
Manny: the 2000s version of the Confederacy.

213
00:11:54.750 --> 00:11:55.310
Chairman of Chaos: Yeah.

214
00:11:55.960 --> 00:11:58.389
Manny: These people need reparations.

215
00:11:58.390 --> 00:12:01.150
Chairman of Chaos: Well, he did call them good people.

216
00:12:01.510 --> 00:12:05.110
Manny: Oh, I'm sorry, then I was completely wrong. They were good people, never mind.

217
00:12:05.110 --> 00:12:05.769
Chairman of Chaos: They were good people.

218
00:12:05.770 --> 00:12:06.420
Manny: here for?

219
00:12:06.420 --> 00:12:07.880
Jeezy: Bruh, wild.

220
00:12:08.360 --> 00:12:12.030
Jeezy: I just don't understand how you give blue bills

221
00:12:12.210 --> 00:12:14.850
Jeezy: To people that you claim that you backed the blue.

222
00:12:15.400 --> 00:12:19.050
Chairman of Chaos: I thought you was about to say another blue, but…

223
00:12:19.450 --> 00:12:22.969
Manny: Would have also been applicable.

224
00:12:23.210 --> 00:12:23.880
Jeezy: Right.

225
00:12:23.880 --> 00:12:24.430
Manny: X.

226
00:12:24.430 --> 00:12:28.700
Jeezy: They, they have, they assaulted police officers.

227
00:12:29.180 --> 00:12:35.380
Jeezy: And for a party that is driving on the campaign promise that we support, we back.

228
00:12:35.380 --> 00:12:36.219
Chairman of Chaos: Back to Blue.

229
00:12:36.220 --> 00:12:44.459
Jeezy: the blues. You about to hand them blue notes? You about to… they getting paid for beating up, assaulting police officers?

230
00:12:44.460 --> 00:12:52.310
Manny: For assaulting police officers, destroying property, for, unlawfully, you know.

231
00:12:52.310 --> 00:12:53.990
Chairman of Chaos: mentoring, yeah.

232
00:12:54.690 --> 00:12:56.930
Manny: Stealing government secrets.

233
00:12:57.470 --> 00:13:01.000
Jeezy: I got a question about this, but I'm gonna save it to the end of the segment, but…

234
00:13:01.390 --> 00:13:05.840
Jeezy: I'm very curious, and it may be a tenfold moment for us later on.

235
00:13:06.130 --> 00:13:11.970
Jeezy: But to our listeners, what actually happened in this, just to give you some more detail, Trump…

236
00:13:12.100 --> 00:13:16.250
Jeezy: Trump Jr, which… Trump Jr. got married this past weekend, so…

237
00:13:16.380 --> 00:13:22.809
Jeezy: I would say… I don't know if I should say a shout-out, because you may… I feel some way if my daddy didn't come to my wedding, but…

238
00:13:23.840 --> 00:13:25.060
Jeezy: Right. So…

239
00:13:25.060 --> 00:13:39.639
Chairman of Chaos: Real quick on that, I found out that he married a woman whose father was a banker who provided a recommendation to Epstein for him to buy her Epstein Island.

240
00:13:40.020 --> 00:13:40.480
Manny: Yep.

241
00:13:40.480 --> 00:13:42.640
Chairman of Chaos: I just saw that… yesterday.

242
00:13:42.780 --> 00:13:43.340
Manny: Which is interesting.

243
00:13:43.340 --> 00:13:43.910
Chairman of Chaos: to me.

244
00:13:44.570 --> 00:13:46.970
Jeezy: We had on a private island, this past weekend.

245
00:13:47.140 --> 00:13:49.560
Chairman of Chaos: Hmm. I mean… Go to those islands again.

246
00:13:49.560 --> 00:13:50.500
Manny: Doc?

247
00:13:50.500 --> 00:13:51.039
Jeezy: Leaving a mile.

248
00:13:51.040 --> 00:13:59.749
Manny: Don Jr. has to be… feel horrible that he is the only child that Donald Trump wouldn't travel to a private island for.

249
00:14:02.000 --> 00:14:03.160
Chairman of Chaos: Message!

250
00:14:03.970 --> 00:14:04.610
Jeezy: Yikes.

251
00:14:04.960 --> 00:14:09.719
Jeezy: Just saying. That's nasty. That is nasty.

252
00:14:10.490 --> 00:14:13.859
Jeezy: Trump say, you gettin' married way? Oh, we have it in a private island.

253
00:14:14.680 --> 00:14:17.640
Jeezy: Which island, you say? What? Which island?

254
00:14:17.640 --> 00:14:18.280
Chairman of Chaos: I don't know.

255
00:14:18.280 --> 00:14:19.940
Jeezy: fairly well.

256
00:14:19.940 --> 00:14:21.850
Chairman of Chaos: Man?

257
00:14:21.850 --> 00:14:24.590
Jeezy: started getting, like, Mr. Burns from The Simpsons, I remember that.

258
00:14:25.070 --> 00:14:25.740
Manny: Excellent.

259
00:14:25.740 --> 00:14:26.149
Chairman of Chaos: It's alright.

260
00:14:26.600 --> 00:14:28.029
Chairman of Chaos: Start drooling at the mouth.

261
00:14:28.030 --> 00:14:29.040
Jeezy: Yup.

262
00:14:29.370 --> 00:14:31.410
Chairman of Chaos: But Trump, Trump Jr.

263
00:14:31.460 --> 00:14:41.869
Jeezy: Eric Trump and the Trump Organization sued the IRS and the Treasury after their tax information was leaked, and the settlement, says that Trump and named plaintiffs received a formal apology

264
00:14:41.910 --> 00:15:00.749
Jeezy: But no direct monetary damages. In exchange, the DOJ created the Anti-Weaponization Fund. So the fund is set at, $1.776 billion, and I don't care if you want to be symbolic about whatever reason why you picked that, but whatever. Again, maybe to the marketing genius that he is. And the DOJ…

265
00:15:01.020 --> 00:15:15.750
Jeezy: says that it will come from the Federal Judgment Fund, which is normally used to pay legal settlements against the government. So, Chuck, I'm gonna ask you this, the first big question. If Trump isn't getting a check directly.

266
00:15:15.880 --> 00:15:18.080
Jeezy: Does that make this cleaner?

267
00:15:18.470 --> 00:15:26.359
Jeezy: Or… It's creating a billion-dollar fund for your political allies basically the same thing, with extra steps.

268
00:15:27.710 --> 00:15:28.340
Chairman of Chaos: Nope.

269
00:15:28.840 --> 00:15:41.849
Chairman of Chaos: And I give a very short answer, because there's an aspect of this that's not being reported as loudly as the 1.7, or some people have rounded up to the $1.8 billion.

270
00:15:41.850 --> 00:15:42.360
Jeezy: Yeah.

271
00:15:43.810 --> 00:15:44.650
Chairman of Chaos: Trump?

272
00:15:44.940 --> 00:15:48.490
Chairman of Chaos: His family, his friends, and his businesses.

273
00:15:49.250 --> 00:15:53.090
Chairman of Chaos: are no longer being audited by the IRS.

274
00:15:53.090 --> 00:15:53.790
Manny: Forever.

275
00:15:53.790 --> 00:15:57.250
Chairman of Chaos: conjunction… with this deal.

276
00:15:57.350 --> 00:16:00.010
Chairman of Chaos: Hear me again, and hear me loud and clear.

277
00:16:00.110 --> 00:16:07.640
Chairman of Chaos: Because before this, even before the leaks, and I'll dive in that a little more detail.

278
00:16:08.240 --> 00:16:16.919
Chairman of Chaos: Trump was being audited. His companies were being audited and looked into by the IRS. Those audits have been ceased and desist.

279
00:16:17.840 --> 00:16:20.630
Manny: I believe it's just the federal ones, though.

280
00:16:20.630 --> 00:16:24.099
Chairman of Chaos: Yes, yeah, I mean, that's all they can adhere to.

281
00:16:24.250 --> 00:16:27.929
Chairman of Chaos: But I'm sure Ron DeSantis is gonna try to find a way to…

282
00:16:28.460 --> 00:16:31.039
Chairman of Chaos: Helping with the state, for sure. Yeah, for sure.

283
00:16:31.690 --> 00:16:36.130
Chairman of Chaos: But, yeah, they're no longer allowed to be audited.

284
00:16:37.270 --> 00:16:42.709
Chairman of Chaos: At all. Which means we can move our money around, and play with our money.

285
00:16:42.890 --> 00:16:54.309
Chairman of Chaos: Any way we want to, without fear of repercussion, without fear of reprimand, and most importantly, without fear of having to pay.

286
00:16:54.700 --> 00:16:57.190
Chairman of Chaos: Our fair share of taxes.

287
00:16:57.380 --> 00:17:02.720
Chairman of Chaos: So what happens is… what happened with this whole situation, and we'll go back… to 2016.

288
00:17:02.950 --> 00:17:07.010
Chairman of Chaos: in his initial campaign run, generally.

289
00:17:07.240 --> 00:17:13.269
Chairman of Chaos: When individuals are running for president, they release their tax documents.

290
00:17:13.970 --> 00:17:15.109
Chairman of Chaos: Nobody.

291
00:17:15.630 --> 00:17:18.840
Chairman of Chaos: nobody, and I repeat, nobody

292
00:17:19.250 --> 00:17:26.899
Chairman of Chaos: has gone without releasing them and providing that information at some point. Some have delayed it more than… longer than others.

293
00:17:27.150 --> 00:17:33.039
Chairman of Chaos: But everybody has, provided tax documents. Trump refused.

294
00:17:34.790 --> 00:17:54.050
Chairman of Chaos: we can ascertain as to why he refused, but he refused. And so then, I think it was the New York Times first reported, on some tax information and some tax things that Trump was doing. They had no way of pinpointing who, you know, where this information came from.

295
00:17:54.430 --> 00:18:01.490
Chairman of Chaos: But it starts showing some funny business and trumps Dylan's and doings. Time goes on, and…

296
00:18:02.580 --> 00:18:07.440
Chairman of Chaos: there's another leak by… there's another publication by, I want to say it's Pro…

297
00:18:07.560 --> 00:18:14.849
Chairman of Chaos: ProPublica. ProPublica. Yeah, yeah. Try to say that 5 times fast. But,

298
00:18:15.730 --> 00:18:21.980
Chairman of Chaos: they came out with not only Trump information, but other billionaires, like Bezos and Elon.

299
00:18:22.300 --> 00:18:27.259
Chairman of Chaos: Showing some of their dealings and doings and tax documents, and sure enough.

300
00:18:27.800 --> 00:18:38.420
Chairman of Chaos: In 2023, an individual was called, he was an ex-contractor for the IRS, who leaked this information to both of these entities. And, understand.

301
00:18:38.740 --> 00:18:39.960
Chairman of Chaos: Wrong is wrong.

302
00:18:40.290 --> 00:18:45.340

Chairman of Chaos: My 40 acres in the Mew.

329
00:20:59.330 --> 00:21:07.559
Chairman of Chaos: I take a parcel… I'll take a parcel of land, and $400,000. Something, bruh.

330
00:21:08.290 --> 00:21:12.300
Chairman of Chaos: And I ain't committing no… I ain't committing no crime against the U.S. government.

331
00:21:12.300 --> 00:21:13.520
Jeezy: None, bro.

332
00:21:13.650 --> 00:21:23.160
Manny: Well, and I think a key part that… you hit all these points amazingly, but let's even take a step back. The… the leaks…

333
00:21:23.410 --> 00:21:29.260
Manny: that happened at the IRS of the tax data, That triggered all this.

334
00:21:29.540 --> 00:21:34.690
Manny: happened in between May of 2019 and September of 2020.

335
00:21:34.690 --> 00:21:35.360
Chairman of Chaos: Yeah.

336
00:21:35.620 --> 00:21:37.590
Manny: While you were president.

337
00:21:37.590 --> 00:21:38.080
Chairman of Chaos: Yeah.

338
00:21:38.080 --> 00:21:40.130
Manny: This was your agency.

339
00:21:40.130 --> 00:21:40.460
Chairman of Chaos: Yeah.

340
00:21:40.460 --> 00:21:41.819
Manny: In charge of this ship.

341
00:21:42.340 --> 00:21:43.020
Jeezy: Bruh.

342
00:21:43.220 --> 00:21:45.060
Chairman of Chaos: I thought you was gonna say another S-word.

343
00:21:45.660 --> 00:21:46.880
Jeezy: But…

344
00:21:46.880 --> 00:21:48.260
Manny: Well, yeah.

345
00:21:48.260 --> 00:21:49.020
Chairman of Chaos: Yep.

346
00:21:49.020 --> 00:21:52.149
Manny: I think at this point, we're just seeing a…

347
00:21:52.410 --> 00:22:00.469
Manny: we know what the Trump strategy is at this point, because I think at this point, since he's been back in office for his second term.

348
00:22:00.700 --> 00:22:09.480
Manny: not only just with the IRS, but with a whole bunch of other different organizations, corporations. Trump has filed upwards of $60 billion.

349
00:22:09.840 --> 00:22:10.700
Manny: boss.

350
00:22:10.820 --> 00:22:11.650
Manny: Yeah.

351
00:22:11.720 --> 00:22:12.210
Chairman of Chaos: You know?

352
00:22:12.210 --> 00:22:18.619
Manny: And I don't believe he's won anything up to this point. Like, I think this is the first one, and you… can you really count it.

353
00:22:18.620 --> 00:22:20.690
Chairman of Chaos: Whoa, he didn't… it's not a win. It's not a win.

354
00:22:20.690 --> 00:22:21.570
Manny: I don't really win.

355
00:22:21.670 --> 00:22:32.240
Manny: So, he's got, what, $31 million he got from ABC and CBS, that actually went to a jury. But, like, everything else?

356
00:22:32.920 --> 00:22:34.850
Manny: Closed door behind it.

357
00:22:34.950 --> 00:22:39.100
Manny: And… When historians finally look back.

358
00:22:39.600 --> 00:22:49.909
Manny: And it'll be… I think it'll be interesting to see, long-term the… the levels of shoving it back in our faces they're going to do.

359
00:22:50.190 --> 00:22:55.209
Manny: Is Trump going to file taxes? Are his companies going to file taxes?

360
00:22:55.320 --> 00:22:56.510
Chairman of Chaos: Whoa.

361
00:22:56.510 --> 00:22:58.290
Manny: There's no point now. There's no point now.

362
00:22:58.690 --> 00:23:00.280
Jeezy: Absolutely not.

363
00:23:01.150 --> 00:23:03.410
Manny: to file any type of taxes at this point.

364
00:23:03.410 --> 00:23:04.060
Chairman of Chaos: Oh.

365
00:23:04.750 --> 00:23:15.909
Manny: So, all we'll have to… all we'll have to go off of is financial disclosures that we have to go to different banks for to try to get the information. But…

366
00:23:16.830 --> 00:23:19.839
Manny: How brazen will they be that they're not doing this?

367
00:23:20.190 --> 00:23:20.620
Chairman of Chaos: Man.

368
00:23:20.620 --> 00:23:23.229
Manny: Because when historians go back in time.

369
00:23:23.720 --> 00:23:36.100
Manny: 50, 60, 70 years from now, and start piecing all this together to watch the monstrosity of various cri… I won't say crimes, but the…

370
00:23:36.330 --> 00:23:37.280
Manny: just…

371
00:23:37.280 --> 00:23:38.240
Chairman of Chaos: The potential.

372
00:23:38.240 --> 00:23:39.799
Manny: Yeah, potential for crime?

373
00:23:39.800 --> 00:23:40.830
Chairman of Chaos: It's going…

374
00:23:40.830 --> 00:23:42.680
Manny: It's gonna be ridiculous.

375
00:23:42.680 --> 00:23:47.849
Chairman of Chaos: Manny, you… you knocked it out of the park, brother. How brazen will they be?

376
00:23:47.850 --> 00:23:48.560
Manny: Right.

377
00:23:48.560 --> 00:23:55.490
Chairman of Chaos: How… and to your point about the different lawsuits that he set up.

378
00:23:55.630 --> 00:24:07.950
Chairman of Chaos: and filed, this woman was on the verge of being dismissed. Yeah. I'm fully convinced, because the judge went back and told them that they had to present briefs

379
00:24:08.340 --> 00:24:13.500
Chairman of Chaos: That they were truly… In conflict, because…

380
00:24:13.650 --> 00:24:21.590
Chairman of Chaos: How is your former personal attorney turned AG now… You're…

381
00:24:21.930 --> 00:24:26.880
Chairman of Chaos: You're suing. He's calling the shots, and you're suing the government that you're in charge of.

382
00:24:27.040 --> 00:24:41.540
Chairman of Chaos: Via the entity that you run with your former personal attorney at the helm, who was aware of all the handlings and dealings when your tax information and your taxes were leaked.

383
00:24:42.010 --> 00:24:45.330
Chairman of Chaos: And when you were first presented with audit requests.

384
00:24:45.930 --> 00:24:49.559
Chairman of Chaos: And so, yeah, this is nasty work, man.

385
00:24:49.740 --> 00:24:51.640
Chairman of Chaos: Nasty word.

386
00:24:51.640 --> 00:24:53.489
Jeezy: I think when you, when you look at it.

387
00:24:53.760 --> 00:24:59.210
Jeezy: and the controversy behind it. Another layer of it is…

388
00:24:59.660 --> 00:25:14.979
Jeezy: when you look at the structure of it, the fund can issue formal apologies and monetary relief for people who claimed that they were victims of lawfare and weaponization. Now, those that can make a claim, it can be individuals or it can be entities.

389
00:25:15.020 --> 00:25:21.189
Jeezy: And the fund considers things like actual damages, legal fees, and even time spent

390
00:25:21.250 --> 00:25:26.989
Jeezy: In federal custody, but this aspect of it is where the eyebrow starts to point north.

391
00:25:27.370 --> 00:25:29.150
Manny: This… Bruh.

392
00:25:30.190 --> 00:25:32.009
Manny: This one? This is…

393
00:25:32.280 --> 00:25:34.660
Chairman of Chaos: This is the point that takes your eyebrows off.

394
00:25:34.660 --> 00:25:38.000
Jeezy: We went from the people's eyebrows to just both of them, just…

395
00:25:40.110 --> 00:25:44.870
Jeezy: But the funds, five members are appointed through the Attorney General.

396
00:25:45.160 --> 00:25:46.840
Jeezy: That's nasty.

397
00:25:47.100 --> 00:25:50.710
Jeezy: And the president can remove members without calls.

398
00:25:51.160 --> 00:26:01.369
Jeezy: And the fund also sends confidential quarterly reports to the Attorney General, not public records at all. So…

399
00:26:01.820 --> 00:26:08.629
Jeezy: When you, when you look at this controversial aspect of it, If this is taxpayer money.

400
00:26:09.650 --> 00:26:16.759
Jeezy: Should the public know who gets paid, or does the privacy make sense because these are legal claims?

401
00:26:18.200 --> 00:26:19.290
Chairman of Chaos: This is not HIPAA.

402
00:26:19.910 --> 00:26:23.219
Manny: Right. Yes, give me.

403
00:26:24.820 --> 00:26:26.189
Manny: I need the names.

404
00:26:26.510 --> 00:26:27.710
Jeezy: need to know.

405
00:26:27.710 --> 00:26:35.150
Chairman of Chaos: Hey, listen, man, we… I, I… let me, let me be clear.

406
00:26:36.470 --> 00:26:43.740
Chairman of Chaos: I… I am completely… Completely against this fund.

407
00:26:44.530 --> 00:26:45.640
Chairman of Chaos: But I don't care.

408
00:26:46.150 --> 00:26:54.690
Chairman of Chaos: And the reason I say I don't care is because they continue to allow this man to get with brazen fraud.

409
00:26:55.150 --> 00:26:58.030
Chairman of Chaos: And… brazen.

410
00:26:58.270 --> 00:27:00.630
Jeezy: I mean, just in the face.

411
00:27:00.630 --> 00:27:12.649
Chairman of Chaos: When things were done before, at least they did it underhanded, backhanded, and around a corner, where you couldn't see any… and that's where conspiracy theories come from.

412
00:27:12.650 --> 00:27:13.430
Jeezy: Yep.

413
00:27:13.430 --> 00:27:14.900
Chairman of Chaos: Hello, Conspiracy Theory here!

414
00:27:15.570 --> 00:27:18.030
Manny: Tell me exactly what you're doing, right to my face?

415
00:27:18.030 --> 00:27:19.260
Chairman of Chaos: And then you do it!

416
00:27:19.260 --> 00:27:26.740
Jeezy: The government used to at least piss on your leg and tell you it was raining. At least! They stand right in your face.

417
00:27:26.740 --> 00:27:27.450
Manny: Zip?

418
00:27:27.450 --> 00:27:29.540
Jeezy: Just full zip, and…

419
00:27:29.540 --> 00:27:36.549
Chairman of Chaos: No, they let you unzip for them. Like, but to your question, yes, we should know.

420
00:27:36.550 --> 00:27:36.930
Jeezy: Yeah.

421
00:27:36.930 --> 00:27:39.120
Chairman of Chaos: We should know this information, this is…

422
00:27:39.350 --> 00:27:46.080
Chairman of Chaos: This is… this is not, as I stated, I said it in jest, but it's in very seriousness, it's not HIPAA.

423
00:27:46.210 --> 00:27:53.949
Chairman of Chaos: This is not a matter of… if you going to jail as public record, why are you receiving these funds not be public record?

424
00:27:53.950 --> 00:27:54.780
Audio shared by Jeezy: Message!

425
00:27:56.990 --> 00:27:58.580
Manny: Pax. Whoa.

426
00:27:58.730 --> 00:28:03.329
Manny: What I think is happening… hold on. I need to get my hat for this one.

427
00:28:03.330 --> 00:28:04.060

430
00:28:12.160 --> 00:28:14.470
Manny: I'm just saying it's real convenient.

431
00:28:14.600 --> 00:28:22.879
Manny: That they're creating a fund That especially is targeting people who were trying to pull a coup.

432
00:28:23.440 --> 00:28:29.750
Manny: right before the midterm elections, in which Trump is getting ready to probably see massive losses.

433
00:28:30.210 --> 00:28:30.910
Jeezy: Mmm.

434
00:28:31.170 --> 00:28:42.879
Manny: And allowing them an opportunity to spend that money to potentially rearm themselves, or get whatever other supplies they need to pull another coup if the midterms do not go

435
00:28:43.040 --> 00:28:45.630
Manny: the way Mr. Trump wants it to play out.

436
00:28:46.750 --> 00:28:50.049

00:29:42.420 --> 00:29:56.179
Chairman of Chaos: Nope. They ain't got… they ain't got the… they ain't gonna be enough. But I'm with y'all, brothers. I hadn't thought about it that way, but when y'all present the information and the evidence, I could see them thinking that way.

458
00:29:56.180 --> 00:30:05.160
Jeezy: Because I think November is a possibility, but it's gonna take some time to structure that thing when you got $1.776 billion. You got to…

459
00:30:05.350 --> 00:30:06.779
Jeezy: It's a little walk, that amount.

460
00:30:06.780 --> 00:30:07.260
Chairman of Chaos: Yes, sir.

461
00:30:07.260 --> 00:30:13.140
Jeezy: Especially if you're not making it public. You can't just exacerbate that cost by November.

462
00:30:13.600 --> 00:30:13.950
Manny: I mean…

463
00:30:13.950 --> 00:30:15.339
Jeezy: I can see the presidential election.

464
00:30:15.710 --> 00:30:20.749
Manny: Do you… do you realize how many applications… first off, I'm applying for it.

465
00:30:20.910 --> 00:30:21.430
Jeezy: Right.

466
00:30:21.430 --> 00:30:22.160
Chairman of Chaos: Entire family.

467
00:30:22.160 --> 00:30:24.350
Manny: playing for it. Like, you realize how…

468
00:30:24.350 --> 00:30:26.030
Chairman of Chaos: My minor son is gonna apply for it.

469
00:30:26.030 --> 00:30:34.430
Manny: Oh, yeah! Oh, yeah, my children have already been oppressed. And targeted by the government. They're…

470
00:30:35.250 --> 00:30:41.230
Manny: And it's not like they're gonna hire more people to deal with it. Geez, your timeline might be better.

471
00:30:41.360 --> 00:30:52.080
Manny: because it's going to take them that long to get through all of these applications, them… actually, no, they're gonna do it real fast, because they're gonna use, Grok…

472
00:30:52.800 --> 00:30:53.300
Chairman of Chaos: Right.

473
00:30:53.300 --> 00:30:56.670
Manny: to start processing all these applications.

474
00:30:56.670 --> 00:31:00.409
Jeezy: I don't… I don't think they're gonna… I think the application is just, is just a mess.

475
00:31:00.770 --> 00:31:04.410
Jeezy: Yeah, it's just a front for the true pot. They already know where the money's gonna go.

476
00:31:04.410 --> 00:31:10.379
Chairman of Chaos: Yeah, I can… and you've seen JD, you've seen JD tap dance on this response about it.

477
00:31:10.560 --> 00:31:13.279
Chairman of Chaos: When they asked him about it over the weekend.

478
00:31:13.740 --> 00:31:19.069
Chairman of Chaos: I think I'm with you, Geez. They already know who they giving their money to, that it's already set up.

479
00:31:19.070 --> 00:31:20.579
Jeezy: I know where that money going, and the fact.

480
00:31:20.580 --> 00:31:21.050
Chairman of Chaos: Thank you.

481
00:31:21.050 --> 00:31:21.910
Jeezy: won't know.

482
00:31:22.360 --> 00:31:23.710
Jeezy: Where it's going?

483
00:31:24.350 --> 00:31:32.879
Jeezy: But Chuck, you're leading me right into my next point that I want to make, because when you think about this fund, and you talk about JD and his tap dancing.

484
00:31:33.070 --> 00:31:39.519
Jeezy: It's not just Democrats that are yelling from across the aisle about this situation. You got some Senate Republicans

485
00:31:39.780 --> 00:31:45.460
Jeezy: That met with the Acting Attorney General, because they had questions about how the fund would work.

486
00:31:45.630 --> 00:31:59.810
Jeezy: I think, Senate Majority, Majority Leader John Thune said that members had legitimate questions and wanted to know how the, administration intended to use it. So, here's the thing.

487
00:32:00.240 --> 00:32:05.729
Jeezy: Republicans want to oppose weaponization, but some also don't want to defend

488
00:32:05.960 --> 00:32:09.430
Jeezy: what critics are calling, basically, Trump's slush fund.

489
00:32:09.590 --> 00:32:28.040
Jeezy: So, it's being reported that Democrats are preparing amendments tied to separate a $72 billion DHS deportation funding bill, which could force Republicans to make, to take a public position on this. So, is this a rare moment where Trump has pushed Senate Republicans into a corner?

490
00:32:28.040 --> 00:32:38.939
Jeezy: where they either defend the fund and own the optics, or question it and risk Trump's wrath when it comes to this fund. I'm gonna ask that question to you starting out, Manny.

491
00:32:39.390 --> 00:32:45.199
Manny: So, it… it's… it's gonna depend. I think if…

492
00:32:45.650 --> 00:32:57.179
Manny: if you are a Republican, you've already run your… won your primary, or you… or lost it, but let's say you've already run your primary, won your primary, you're good. Like…

493
00:32:57.520 --> 00:33:03.529
Manny: You have to defend this to the public. You can… you can… Hide under the guise, hey.

494
00:33:03.730 --> 00:33:15.019
Manny: you know, I couldn't afford to support this because it would hurt you, Mr. Trump, if I lost my seat to the other side. So… but if you still have a primary coming up.

495
00:33:15.020 --> 00:33:15.440
Jeezy: Boy.

496
00:33:15.440 --> 00:33:17.559
Manny: Boy, you… you in a pickle.

497
00:33:17.560 --> 00:33:18.790
Jeezy: Union Pickles.

498
00:33:18.790 --> 00:33:19.180
Chairman of Chaos: Yeah.

499
00:33:19.250 --> 00:33:24.100
Jeezy: When they said… We're sending these people back to their constituents in the most worst way.

500
00:33:24.700 --> 00:33:25.660
Manny: How do you defend that?

501
00:33:25.790 --> 00:33:27.130
Chairman of Chaos: Jammed up.

502
00:33:27.730 --> 00:33:40.570
Manny: The $1.7 billion is 7 times the $230-plus million dollars that was approved with FEMA funds from Hurricane Helene.

503
00:33:41.350 --> 00:33:46.519
Manny: Seven times. How do I take something like that back to my constituency.

504
00:33:46.710 --> 00:33:47.600
Chairman of Chaos: Who are struggling.

505
00:33:47.600 --> 00:33:52.259
Manny: who are struggling, Who are now paying $4.50 for gas.

506
00:33:52.680 --> 00:33:54.719
Manny: It was Tom Tillis who said…

507
00:33:54.720 --> 00:33:55.530
Chairman of Chaos: Yes, it was.

508
00:33:55.970 --> 00:33:59.760
Manny: I think it's stupid on stilts.

509
00:33:59.760 --> 00:34:01.160
Chairman of Chaos: Yes, it was.

510
00:34:02.510 --> 00:34:22.370
Manny: It will invariably put us in a position where your taxpayer dollars and my taxpayer dollars could potentially compensate someone who assaulted police officers, admitted their guilt, got convicted, got pardoned, and now we're gonna pay them for that? That's absurd.

511
00:34:23.400 --> 00:34:31.070
Chairman of Chaos: Not only did he say that, but he also brought up the point that you were just making of the position that it puts

512
00:34:31.560 --> 00:34:41.380
Chairman of Chaos: those who have primaries coming up. He said this is… he puts us in the… it puts my colleagues in a terrible position between now and November. It's terrible.

513
00:34:41.639 --> 00:34:47.080
Chairman of Chaos: Like, you're talking about handing out free money, my money…

514
00:34:47.270 --> 00:34:47.710
Manny: to criminals.

515
00:34:47.719 --> 00:34:53.979
Chairman of Chaos: To these… to criminals, And to Manny's point, gas is $4.50.

516
00:34:55.599 --> 00:34:59.469
Chairman of Chaos: I, you know, let's stick on gas. We ain't gotta talk about all the other stuff.

517
00:34:59.470 --> 00:35:00.130
Jeezy: Yeah, yeah.

518
00:35:00.410 --> 00:35:01.620
Chairman of Chaos: Just gas.

519
00:35:02.460 --> 00:35:05.489
Chairman of Chaos: now you got those in western North Carolina who…

520
00:35:05.760 --> 00:35:08.920
Chairman of Chaos: Still has issues from Hurricane Helene.

521
00:35:09.370 --> 00:35:14.989
Chairman of Chaos: You talking about giving out free money, and you just… you denied my application for assistance on 3 different occasions?

522
00:35:15.610 --> 00:35:18.110
Chairman of Chaos: It's been years since the hurricane came through.

523
00:35:18.110 --> 00:35:19.350
Manny: Years.

524
00:35:19.750 --> 00:35:20.520
Jeezy: Still ain't…

525
00:35:20.800 --> 00:35:27.450
Jeezy: Or, I mean, if you just even want to go more recent, what about the $2,000 stimulus check that you said you was.

526
00:35:27.450 --> 00:35:28.099
Chairman of Chaos: Bro.

527
00:35:28.100 --> 00:35:29.070
Manny: The STEMIs?

528
00:35:29.070 --> 00:35:32.549
Chairman of Chaos: Bruh, ain't no stimulus, bruh. Them tariff refunds.

529
00:35:32.550 --> 00:35:33.759
Jeezy: Let's 10 refunds.

530
00:35:33.760 --> 00:35:36.119
Chairman of Chaos: Now the corporation's about to refund themselves.

531
00:35:36.120 --> 00:35:41.370
Jeezy: Yup, but the criminals, they get a check. They get a check. Somebody about to get a mean come-up.

532
00:35:41.960 --> 00:35:44.429
Jeezy: Just cause they was there. Look, if I knew…

533
00:35:44.880 --> 00:35:54.219
Jeezy: Hindsight is… they say hindsight is 20-20. They say it is. If I… if I knew that all I had to do is to go to DC on January 6th.

534
00:35:54.220 --> 00:35:55.810
Manny: Just hang out and be in the air.

535
00:35:55.810 --> 00:35:56.700
Jeezy: around.

536
00:35:57.830 --> 00:35:58.289
Chairman of Chaos: That was there.

537
00:35:58.560 --> 00:36:01.330
Jeezy: Look, shoulder whip a cop real quick and get arrested.

538
00:36:01.820 --> 00:36:06.209
Jeezy: That I could get about 2 million? Oh, bruh, that's the easiest come-up I've ever seen.

539
00:36:08.210 --> 00:36:10.609
Manny: just trip and fall at his… oh, sorry, sorry, man.

540
00:36:10.610 --> 00:36:15.509
Jeezy: All I gotta do is shove police officers, and I can come up like that? Oh, that ain't no problem.

541
00:36:16.190 --> 00:36:24.799
Chairman of Chaos: You know, the nasty individual award, and I wish I could remember his name and pull the clip that I saw, but there's a,

542
00:36:24.930 --> 00:36:32.849
Chairman of Chaos: a congressional member, I can't remember if he's Senate or GOP, or, representative, Who came out…

543
00:36:33.000 --> 00:36:40.369
Chairman of Chaos: And was supporting this fund, and saying how these individuals need to be compensated.

544
00:36:40.490 --> 00:36:44.510
Chairman of Chaos: But when everything happened on January 6th, he tweeted out

545
00:36:44.880 --> 00:37:04.029
Chairman of Chaos: how nasty it was, and how disgraceful it was, and how he supports Capitol Police and those being attacked, and even has something hanging outside of his, office door, in support of, and on his website, in support of Capitol Police. You spitting in they face.

546
00:37:04.670 --> 00:37:17.660
Manny: Well, and Enrique Tarrio, or Torrio, the chairman of the Proud Boys, and it wasn't until I did this research that I realized that the Proud Boys were set up to have a chairman. That's neither here nor there.

547
00:37:18.070 --> 00:37:25.170
Manny: He was… he was convicted of seditious conspiracy, he was sentenced to 22 years.

548
00:37:25.170 --> 00:37:25.590
Chairman of Chaos: Yes.

549
00:37:25.590 --> 00:37:33.369
Manny: told Reuters that he plans to apply for somewhere between 2 and 5 million, but that he's not greedy.

550
00:37:34.150 --> 00:37:34.900
Jeezy: Bruh.

551
00:37:35.460 --> 00:37:36.520
Manny: I'm not greedy.

552
00:37:36.630 --> 00:37:38.909
Manny: Somewhere between 2 to 5, I'm not…

553
00:37:39.760 --> 00:37:43.240
Manny: Gotta make sure there's some for other people, just between 2 to 5, you know.

554
00:37:43.830 --> 00:37:44.380
Jeezy: Yo.

555
00:37:44.380 --> 00:37:51.569
Chairman of Chaos: These people… these people test your religion, because I try to… I try to operate in the notion of…

556
00:37:52.090 --> 00:37:57.199
Chairman of Chaos: how Jesus, the Christ, Operated in showing love.

557
00:37:57.200 --> 00:37:59.109
Jeezy: Mankind make it hard every day, brother.

558
00:37:59.110 --> 00:38:06.590
Chairman of Chaos: Every day, because my… my… the flesh side of me wants to say, Take them out!

559
00:38:06.590 --> 00:38:07.740
Manny: Check them out.

560
00:38:07.740 --> 00:38:09.289
Chairman of Chaos: Oh, and the wild part about it.

561
00:38:09.290 --> 00:38:16.769
Jeezy: The wild part about this is the people that potentially could get these funds ain't got no business with that type of money.

562
00:38:16.770 --> 00:38:20.409
Manny: None. None. You remember that Dave Chappelle, skit?

563
00:38:20.410 --> 00:38:23.210
Jeezy: Oh, bruh, bro, you… oh my god.

564
00:38:23.210 --> 00:38:25.550
Manny: Operations? Yo. Yes. Yeah.

565
00:38:25.750 --> 00:38:27.999
Manny: Just a redneck version of that, like…

566
00:38:28.000 --> 00:38:29.639
Jeezy: Yeah, pretty much. Yeah.

567
00:38:29.640 --> 00:38:35.680
Manny: But what's also wild, and I can't… y'all know music way better than I do.

568
00:38:36.510 --> 00:38:39.490
Manny: and I forget the song, you know…

569
00:38:40.270 --> 00:38:42.909
Manny: whatever, I'll just go to my point, y'all figure out the…

570
00:38:42.910 --> 00:38:46.600
Chairman of Chaos: No, no, no, no, let's play this game. I was waiting to see you.

571
00:38:47.150 --> 00:38:49.640
Chairman of Chaos: I was waiting to see how terrible you tore it is.

572
00:38:49.640 --> 00:38:56.600
Jeezy: To our listeners, to our listeners, Manny is not the connoisseur of music that most of us are in the group, so… This is not my…

573
00:38:56.600 --> 00:38:57.370
Manny: ministry.

574
00:38:57.370 --> 00:39:00.620
Chairman of Chaos: When he likes something, he can give you that.

575
00:39:00.620 --> 00:39:01.020
Jeezy: Yeah.

576
00:39:01.020 --> 00:39:05.320
Chairman of Chaos: But outside of that, just in general… you got it.

577
00:39:06.610 --> 00:39:08.310
Chairman of Chaos: Alright, go ahead, brother, go ahead.

578
00:39:08.310 --> 00:39:10.479
Manny: They're about, they got money for everything.

579
00:39:12.530 --> 00:39:13.860
Manny: That's all I got, that's the…

580
00:39:13.860 --> 00:39:14.540
Jeezy: That's cool.

581
00:39:14.540 --> 00:39:16.230
Chairman of Chaos: Record scratch?

00:39:16.230 --> 00:39:17.780
Manny: Yeah, look.

Jeezy: I did… can I phone a friend? Can I call Alex a bit?

584
00:39:21.890 --> 00:39:24.200
Chairman of Chaos: 50-50? No, don't call Alex.

585
00:39:24.200 --> 00:39:26.019
Manny: They're young.

586
00:39:26.510 --> 00:39:28.139
Manny: Kel Jones, Kel Jones.

587
00:39:29.380 --> 00:39:29.720
Chairman of Chaos: Yeah.

588
00:39:29.720 --> 00:39:30.599
Jeezy: I mean, you put ignorance.

589
00:39:30.600 --> 00:39:35.640
Chairman of Chaos: No collar, no collar. Because, Lord, I ain't trying to go home yet.

590
00:39:35.640 --> 00:39:36.170
Jeezy: tweak.

591
00:39:36.170 --> 00:39:42.980
Manny: Between the IRS ruling and this fund being announced, 72 hours.

592
00:39:43.100 --> 00:39:46.430
Manny: Boy, if the government cannot find money.

593
00:39:47.150 --> 00:39:50.070
Manny: To do what it wants to do when it wants to do it.

594
00:39:50.070 --> 00:39:53.389
Chairman of Chaos: But you can't pay for daycare because of a war!

595
00:39:54.100 --> 00:39:56.190
Manny: You can't… you can't take care of…

596
00:39:56.190 --> 00:40:00.020
Jeezy: some of this money for TSA when they were going through what they were going through?

597
00:40:00.590 --> 00:40:01.850
Chairman of Chaos: My lord.

598
00:40:02.830 --> 00:40:05.990
Jeezy: You can find money when it is very convenient.

599
00:40:06.640 --> 00:40:09.119
Manny: Every… every natural disaster.

600
00:40:10.610 --> 00:40:19.500
Manny: I won't even say… got Helene, you probably got… you still got people on Eastern North Carolina trying to come back together from previous ones. Was it Matthew? Like…

601
00:40:20.530 --> 00:40:22.989
Manny: Hold on, that's North Carolina.

602
00:40:22.990 --> 00:40:25.239
Chairman of Chaos: Yeah, hold on, hold on, hold on.

603
00:40:25.480 --> 00:40:28.990
Chairman of Chaos: Didn't we just have a big, beautiful build I wanted to cut and slash?

604
00:40:29.710 --> 00:40:36.870
Chairman of Chaos: We couldn't slash Medicaid, we couldn't slash… Beautiful.

605
00:40:36.870 --> 00:40:37.700
Jeezy: Oh my goodness.

606
00:40:37.700 --> 00:40:51.280
Chairman of Chaos: The Department of Education… like, we… you started this thing off by saying we want to trim the fat, and cut back, and cut down on wasteful spending.

607
00:40:52.040 --> 00:40:57.590
Manny: In this second administration, all I'm hearing about is money going out.

608
00:40:57.710 --> 00:40:59.879
Manny: all this money that… I think we.

609
00:40:59.880 --> 00:41:00.400
Chairman of Chaos: All those.

610
00:41:00.400 --> 00:41:08.409
Manny: spending this same… close to this same amount every two days in Iran with this bullshit war.

611
00:41:08.410 --> 00:41:09.350
Chairman of Chaos: Well, have you…

612
00:41:09.350 --> 00:41:09.809
Jeezy: If you, if you.

613
00:41:09.810 --> 00:41:10.220
Chairman of Chaos: What I'm.

614
00:41:10.220 --> 00:41:18.160
Jeezy: trimming. I think at this point, we ain't trimming nothing. I think they've taken the prime steak off the table and just handed us cubed steak at this point.

615
00:41:18.260 --> 00:41:21.730
Chairman of Chaos: We eating cube steak while they eating tomahawk. Really?

616
00:41:21.730 --> 00:41:22.480
Jeezy: Yes.

617
00:41:23.540 --> 00:41:27.780
Jeezy: But, so for our listeners, the cleanest way to explain this…

618
00:41:28.000 --> 00:41:30.329
Jeezy: is that Trump has sued the IRS.

619
00:41:30.470 --> 00:41:32.509
Jeezy: Trump's DOJ settled the case.

620
00:41:32.760 --> 00:41:34.909
Jeezy: Trump DOJ created the fund.

621
00:41:35.060 --> 00:41:37.600
Jeezy: Trump's Attorney General gets report from the fund.

622
00:41:37.910 --> 00:41:42.670
Jeezy: And Trump can remove fund members, so that we all on the… we all are caught up.

623
00:41:42.670 --> 00:41:43.260
Manny: Same page.

624
00:41:43.260 --> 00:41:48.700
Jeezy: We're all on the same page. That's our simple review. But that does not automatically mean

625
00:41:49.520 --> 00:41:58.420
Jeezy: It is illegal, but it absolutely raises the issue of whether the executive branch can fairly settle a case involving…

626
00:41:58.520 --> 00:42:10.499
Jeezy: the president himself. So I'm gonna ask this to you, Chuck. Even if you believe the government was weaponized, let's say you believe it, that they were weaponized against Trump, or they were weaponized against conservatives in general.

627
00:42:10.780 --> 00:42:16.770
Jeezy: Should Trump's own administration be the one deciding Who gets paid back?

628
00:42:18.820 --> 00:42:25.300
Chairman of Chaos: Back in the… Say, 88, 89… I was taken…

629
00:42:26.320 --> 00:42:28.819
Chairman of Chaos: What do they call social studies.

630
00:42:31.610 --> 00:42:34.080
Chairman of Chaos: I don't know what… they got all kinds of names for it now.

631
00:42:34.740 --> 00:42:35.990
Chairman of Chaos: I don't take a social status.

632
00:42:36.350 --> 00:42:37.550
Jeezy: When it made sense.

633
00:42:37.550 --> 00:42:42.289
Chairman of Chaos: When it made sense. And they told me that we had 3 branches of government.

634
00:42:42.290 --> 00:42:42.909
Jeezy: That is right.

635
00:42:42.910 --> 00:42:46.319
Chairman of Chaos: The executive, the legislative, and the judicial.

636
00:42:47.860 --> 00:42:50.639
Chairman of Chaos: And at that point, they told me…

637
00:42:51.070 --> 00:42:56.150
Chairman of Chaos: Not in these exact words, but the legislative had the power of the purse.

638
00:42:57.240 --> 00:42:57.900
Manny: Yep.

639
00:42:59.370 --> 00:42:59.760
Jeezy: Apparently not.

640
00:42:59.760 --> 00:43:02.040
Chairman of Chaos: How? How?

641
00:43:02.520 --> 00:43:04.830
Chairman of Chaos: Are you creating a fund?

642
00:43:06.310 --> 00:43:10.310
Chairman of Chaos: And then dictating how the fund… the money from the fund is spent.

643
00:43:11.450 --> 00:43:14.969
Chairman of Chaos: With no additional input from antibody.

644
00:43:14.970 --> 00:43:16.000
Jeezy: Anybody.

645
00:43:16.250 --> 00:43:24.510
Manny: Well, I think that's gonna be the challenge. That's why you had all the Republicans saying, F this, we're going home. It's Memorial Day weekend, we not dealing with this.

646
00:43:25.580 --> 00:43:27.749
Chairman of Chaos: Well, they said that, because they just…

647
00:43:27.750 --> 00:43:29.399
Jeezy: I ain't dealing with type.

648
00:43:29.400 --> 00:43:29.900
Manny: I'm.

649
00:43:29.900 --> 00:43:30.880
Jeezy: I haven't seen in my life.

650
00:43:31.530 --> 00:43:36.260
Jeezy: I wish every time work got tough for me, I could just say, I ain't dealing with this, I'm going home.

651
00:43:36.260 --> 00:43:38.190
Chairman of Chaos: That's a fact. That's a fact.

652
00:43:38.190 --> 00:43:41.500
Jeezy: How you lead work because it got difficult?

653
00:43:41.500 --> 00:43:52.119
Chairman of Chaos: Yeah, and that could… look, and that takes me to the thought of that dummy Mike Johnson talking about they not getting paid enough, and they need to be allowed to insider trading. But anyway, we're on this topic.

654
00:43:52.120 --> 00:43:53.109
Jeezy: It makes it work.

655
00:43:53.260 --> 00:43:59.289
Chairman of Chaos: Yeah, like… There… we were told that there was a system of checks and balances.

656
00:43:59.290 --> 00:43:59.900
Jeezy: Yep.

657
00:44:00.510 --> 00:44:02.909
Chairman of Chaos: All I see is a system of writing the check.

658
00:44:03.110 --> 00:44:04.980
Chairman of Chaos: Increasing your balance.

659
00:44:04.980 --> 00:44:05.620
Audio shared by Jeezy: Message!

660
00:44:05.620 --> 00:44:06.989
Chairman of Chaos: That's… that's all I'm seeing.

661
00:44:06.990 --> 00:44:07.620
Manny: Yep.

662
00:44:08.150 --> 00:44:23.670
Jeezy: And did y'all not remember the King was just here last month and told y'all about that? Y'all. Now listen, now listen. Now, let my grandma say, y'all the most hard-headed people I know. King just told y'all last month about

663
00:44:24.220 --> 00:44:24.580
Jeezy: ounces.

664
00:44:24.580 --> 00:44:25.800
Chairman of Chaos: The real… a real king.

665
00:44:25.800 --> 00:44:26.410
Jeezy: A real…

666
00:44:26.410 --> 00:44:29.360
Chairman of Chaos: Hey, he's a real king, honey.

667
00:44:30.150 --> 00:44:34.150
Chairman of Chaos: If you don't want them, I'll marry them. Look, I'm coming to America.

668
00:44:34.470 --> 00:44:36.919
Jeezy: Bruh, it's insane!

669
00:44:37.500 --> 00:44:38.389
Chairman of Chaos: Yeah, mama.

670
00:44:38.390 --> 00:44:47.100
Manny: I think at the time of this recording, there's at least two that I'm aware of, two legal challenges already to the fund.

671
00:44:48.500 --> 00:44:51.100
Manny: I would suggest there's probably more.

672
00:44:51.430 --> 00:44:52.679
Jeezy: I hope so.

673
00:44:53.560 --> 00:44:57.299
Manny: And I… I would put, if I'm a betting man.

674
00:44:58.580 --> 00:45:05.960
Manny: I think there's probably about 30-40% chance that it survives with the legal challenge intact.

675
00:45:06.510 --> 00:45:13.200
Manny: I think what we're seeing right now, I think when the Senate eventually comes back, they're gonna modify it. They gotta… they have to do something.

676
00:45:13.330 --> 00:45:15.999
Manny: they… at least I would hope they would do something.

677
00:45:16.000 --> 00:45:18.139
Jeezy: I was about to say, have to, or hope to.

678
00:45:18.140 --> 00:45:21.640
Manny: They don't have to do anything. I would hope that they would do something.

679
00:45:22.140 --> 00:45:26.050
Chairman of Chaos: Same starting letter, two different meanings. Yep.

680
00:45:26.050 --> 00:45:32.329
Manny: My question for all of our listeners out there is, do y'all plan? Do y'all plan on applying for this fund?

681
00:45:34.270 --> 00:45:34.870
Jeezy: Yeah.

682
00:45:35.000 --> 00:45:37.750
Jeezy: Somebody always.

683
00:45:37.750 --> 00:45:38.360
Chairman of Chaos: And as well.

684
00:45:38.360 --> 00:45:39.170
Jeezy: I'm saying they can tell you.

685
00:45:39.500 --> 00:45:42.479
Manny: It is no. Nope. It's the worst answer.

686
00:45:42.480 --> 00:45:44.120
Chairman of Chaos: That's the worst they can tell you.

687
00:45:44.120 --> 00:45:52.290
Jeezy: So, really, when you look at this, I mean, it's… it's like… It's essentially like suing… your own home.

688
00:45:53.050 --> 00:45:58.120
Jeezy: Settling with yourself, then creating a GoFundMe that's paid by the neighborhood.

689
00:45:59.310 --> 00:45:59.630
Jeezy: Not even…

690
00:46:00.290 --> 00:46:01.150
Manny: Yep.

691
00:46:01.150 --> 00:46:02.310
Jeezy: That's essentially what's happened here.

692
00:46:02.310 --> 00:46:04.560
Chairman of Chaos: That's exactly what happened.

693
00:46:05.130 --> 00:46:05.740
Chairman of Chaos: It is.

694
00:46:05.740 --> 00:46:07.919
Jeezy: If that sounds dumb to you, that's because this is.

695
00:46:08.240 --> 00:46:10.250
Manny: This is… this is dumb.

696
00:46:10.710 --> 00:46:11.380
Jeezy: So, the end.

697
00:46:11.380 --> 00:46:12.590
Chairman of Chaos: Oh, man.

698
00:46:12.590 --> 00:46:14.260
Jeezy: The issue here is bigger than Trump.

699
00:46:15.000 --> 00:46:16.260
Jeezy: In my opinion.

700
00:46:16.450 --> 00:46:17.090
Chairman of Chaos: Agreed.

701
00:46:17.090 --> 00:46:29.759
Jeezy: If one president can create a billion-dollar fund for people who say the last administration targeted them, what stops the next president from doing the exact same thing from their side?

702
00:46:30.680 --> 00:46:39.970
Jeezy: I mean, are we watching accountability, or are we watching the government create a taxpayer-funded Grievance machine.

703
00:46:40.800 --> 00:46:45.420
Manny: I mean, that's bold, Jeezy, just from the standpoint you're assuming that we're gonna have another president.

704
00:46:45.900 --> 00:46:46.530
Jeezy: Right.

705
00:46:48.200 --> 00:46:48.690
Chairman of Chaos: Bye!

706
00:46:48.690 --> 00:46:49.120
Jeezy: He did.

707
00:46:49.120 --> 00:46:49.700
Manny: Dude.

708
00:46:50.050 --> 00:46:53.350
Jeezy: He did tell, he did tell you, all you gotta do is vote one more time.

709
00:46:53.350 --> 00:46:54.000
Manny: One more time.

710
00:46:54.000 --> 00:46:55.830
Chairman of Chaos: You ain't gotta vote no… you ain't gotta vote no more.

711
00:46:55.830 --> 00:46:56.350
Jeezy: War.

712
00:46:56.640 --> 00:47:05.240
Jeezy: What page of this is in, what chapter, maybe somebody can tell us, if you are a MAGA enthusiast, what page, in the project

713
00:47:05.500 --> 00:47:07.820
Jeezy: Book. What is it, Project 2025?

714
00:47:07.820 --> 00:47:08.530
Manny: 2025.

715
00:47:08.530 --> 00:47:09.350
Chairman of Chaos: Yeah.

716
00:47:09.350 --> 00:47:26.459
Jeezy: What chapter… what chapter is this? What chapter are we on, so I know how far in the book we are, so I can judge how close we are to the end? Are we, you know, a quarter away through? Are we three quarters? Are we halfway through the plan? Because I need to… I might have to get this book and just find out.

717
00:47:26.910 --> 00:47:29.260
Jeezy: Because I need to know where we at, because if we.

718
00:47:29.260 --> 00:47:30.000
Chairman of Chaos: Read opponent.

719
00:47:30.000 --> 00:47:31.040
Jeezy: First quarter?

720
00:47:31.420 --> 00:47:37.059
Jeezy: If we had just gotten through the first few chapters of the book, and we've gotten this corrupt and this stupid.

721
00:47:37.500 --> 00:47:38.540
Jeezy: Oh yeah, bro.

722
00:47:38.860 --> 00:47:40.229
Jeezy: Ain't no telling what's next.

723
00:47:41.350 --> 00:47:42.210
Manny: Cooked.

724
00:47:42.210 --> 00:47:45.159
Chairman of Chaos: What do I like? Real quick, Jesus.

725
00:47:45.160 --> 00:47:46.290
Jeezy: Wait, go ahead, Chuck, I'm sorry.

726
00:47:46.290 --> 00:47:51.949
Chairman of Chaos: The fact that this man openly talked about, they call me a dictator.

727
00:47:52.570 --> 00:47:56.850
Chairman of Chaos: In that clip that you played at the beginning, he openly said this.

728
00:47:56.850 --> 00:47:57.360
Jeezy: Yep.

729
00:47:58.250 --> 00:47:59.780
Manny: And he did not deny it.

730
00:48:00.060 --> 00:48:01.440
Chairman of Chaos: Did not deny it.

731
00:48:01.670 --> 00:48:03.489
Jeezy: He said, I don't think I don't want to be called a doom.

732
00:48:03.620 --> 00:48:05.870
Jeezy: I'm cool with all of it.

733
00:48:05.870 --> 00:48:07.469
Chairman of Chaos: Call them Dome without the B.

734
00:48:07.470 --> 00:48:08.660
Manny: Then would that be…

735
00:48:08.870 --> 00:48:09.630
Chairman of Chaos: that to be.

736
00:48:11.150 --> 00:48:12.130
Chairman of Chaos: Yeah.

737
00:48:12.500 --> 00:48:15.810
Jeezy: It's crazy, man, and to our listeners.

738
00:48:15.930 --> 00:48:23.049
Jeezy: Let us know how you feel about this. Because I don't know if you know, but, taxpayer dollars, includes you.

739
00:48:23.490 --> 00:48:27.090
Jeezy: It's so… And for those who…

740
00:48:27.090 --> 00:48:31.360
Manny: For those of you not in the United States listening to this.

741
00:48:31.800 --> 00:48:34.179
Manny: Y'all just pray for us, man.

742
00:48:34.180 --> 00:48:40.409
Chairman of Chaos: Send us a sponsorship letter so that we can get a passport or dual citizenship in your country.

743
00:48:40.410 --> 00:48:45.929
Jeezy: Yeah, send us citizenship. Send a pie to citizenship, that's all we need.

744
00:48:45.930 --> 00:48:50.219
Chairman of Chaos: I'm blinking twice. If you're listening, I'm blinking twice.

745
00:48:50.970 --> 00:48:57.199
Jeezy: I mean, I did hear a song by J. Cole that once said it's, I believe he said it was 2018. Let me get an app.

746
00:48:57.410 --> 00:49:00.949
Jeezy: So that I can choose what the government is funding from my screen.

747
00:49:01.450 --> 00:49:03.600
Chairman of Chaos: Exactly. We can do everything else.

748
00:49:03.830 --> 00:49:09.809
Jeezy: I don't think that I would be selecting for my money to go towards this fund for thugs, criminals.

749
00:49:09.810 --> 00:49:12.130
Chairman of Chaos: Thugs. Call them what they are, goons.

750
00:49:12.130 --> 00:49:15.990
Jeezy: Thugs. Y'all are just criminals. Downright just criminals.

751
00:49:15.990 --> 00:49:17.260
Chairman of Chaos: gum of the earth.

752
00:49:17.260 --> 00:49:18.180
Jeezy: Yes.

753
00:49:18.540 --> 00:49:23.720
Jeezy: They shouldn't be getting my money. So, to our taxpayers out there, let us know, and if you support this.

754
00:49:23.900 --> 00:49:25.280
Jeezy: Crazy idea.

755
00:49:25.630 --> 00:49:29.240
Jeezy: You have a space here. I'm not gonna say it's a safe space.

756
00:49:29.350 --> 00:49:33.810
Jeezy: But you gotta face here that you don't a faith that, in fact, exists.

757
00:49:33.810 --> 00:49:36.000
Chairman of Chaos: It's available for you.

758
00:49:36.000 --> 00:49:41.029
Jeezy: That spot that we got over there on the grill that ain't nothing over there, that's a hot spot. We can put you right there.

759
00:49:41.290 --> 00:49:44.429
Chairman of Chaos: It comes very fast.

760
00:49:44.430 --> 00:49:48.219
Jeezy: You're gonna get cooked very fast. But let us know why.

761
00:49:48.540 --> 00:49:58.269
Jeezy: indeed support this? Why in God's name do you think that this is a good idea? When there's so much that we could be, using our money, our taxpayer dollars for.

762
00:49:58.400 --> 00:50:05.700
Jeezy: Certainly we don't have a problem wasting it. At least let us have one thing that we can say we truly support where our money's going.

763
00:50:06.070 --> 00:50:11.089
Chairman of Chaos: Can we at least get a one free visit a year to the doctor?

764
00:50:11.200 --> 00:50:12.060
Chairman of Chaos: On the government?

765
00:50:12.060 --> 00:50:13.500
Jeezy: Bruh, oh my god.

766
00:50:13.730 --> 00:50:14.700
Manny: Just sing.

767
00:50:14.700 --> 00:50:15.859
Chairman of Chaos: At least a checkup?

768
00:50:16.310 --> 00:50:19.009
Jeezy: How about one free month of daycare?

769
00:50:19.940 --> 00:50:20.740
Chairman of Chaos: Something.

770
00:50:21.110 --> 00:50:23.229
Chairman of Chaos: Something… something beneficial.

771
00:50:23.450 --> 00:50:36.090
Jeezy: a food voucher for the winter months, for the holidays. You got Thanksgiving and Christmas back and back. Why don't you use that money to make sure that every American family at Thanksgiving and Christmas have a well-placed dinner?

772
00:50:36.310 --> 00:50:36.929
Jeezy: For them to eat.

773
00:50:36.930 --> 00:50:38.379
Chairman of Chaos: Something on my light bill.

774
00:50:38.870 --> 00:50:41.510
Jeezy: Oh, my God. Mmm. In my tank.

775
00:50:41.510 --> 00:50:41.910
Chairman of Chaos: We'll laugh.

776
00:50:41.910 --> 00:50:44.100
Jeezy: In my wallet!

777
00:50:44.920 --> 00:50:48.960
Manny: That you could do for, like, almost half the amount that you have in this fund.

778
00:50:50.080 --> 00:50:51.740
Jeezy: But… You know, hey…

779
00:50:52.940 --> 00:50:53.489
Chairman of Chaos: What do we know?

780
00:50:53.490 --> 00:51:01.960
Jeezy: If the government did do that, I will say this to the American people, and you know which American people I'm talking to. I'm talking directly to a particular group.

781
00:51:02.350 --> 00:51:04.040
Jeezy: If you do get some money.

782
00:51:04.770 --> 00:51:06.420
Jeezy: Don't go buy a new TV.

783
00:51:06.590 --> 00:51:09.360
Jeezy: Every time the government gives you money, you don't need a new TV.

784
00:51:09.750 --> 00:51:12.019
Jeezy: I don't understand why every time…

785
00:51:12.770 --> 00:51:14.900
Chairman of Chaos: I'mma spend my TV money somewhere.

786
00:51:16.750 --> 00:51:17.120
Jeezy: Anywhere.

787
00:51:17.120 --> 00:51:23.239
Chairman of Chaos: They can go buy them a new TV, but I'm gonna spend my TV money.

788
00:51:23.540 --> 00:51:24.890
Chairman of Chaos: It's gonna give a visual.

789
00:51:24.890 --> 00:51:25.310
Jeezy: It's easy.

790
00:51:26.240 --> 00:51:28.929
Jeezy: Tax season, when we got them stimulus check.

791
00:51:29.690 --> 00:51:36.559
Jeezy: TVs. I would say, man, I don't know what it is, man. People get money, the first thing they think about is, I gotta have something better to watch.

792
00:51:37.070 --> 00:51:37.799
Jeezy: K will be out.

793
00:51:37.800 --> 00:51:48.070
Chairman of Chaos: I mean, that… that color be… color is bleeding over through. I need… I need some new O… I need a… I need a OLED.

794
00:51:48.070 --> 00:51:48.390
Jeezy: I know…

795
00:51:48.390 --> 00:51:50.320
Manny: KTVs right now.

796
00:51:50.320 --> 00:51:53.269
Jeezy: I'mma go ahead and say it. I know that we talk about,

797
00:51:53.440 --> 00:51:55.530
Jeezy: in the black community, about how…

798
00:51:55.750 --> 00:52:02.909
Jeezy: you know, the crack epidemic was so detrimental to the Black people, but the creation…

799
00:52:03.740 --> 00:52:06.790
Jeezy: of the flat-screen TV might be second.

800
00:52:08.160 --> 00:52:09.280
Chairman of Chaos: Now, hold on, Jeezy.

801
00:52:09.660 --> 00:52:12.520
Chairman of Chaos: We spent too many years with them big backs.

802
00:52:12.900 --> 00:52:14.270
Chairman of Chaos: On top of the floor model.

803
00:52:14.270 --> 00:52:16.050
Manny: CTR.

804
00:52:16.310 --> 00:52:21.940
Chairman of Chaos: This might… this may be a PTSD… reactionary…

805
00:52:21.940 --> 00:52:24.729
Manny: It is. Function.

806
00:52:24.730 --> 00:52:27.900
Jeezy: So when we go out, when we all go by TVs, we trauma-bonded?

807
00:52:28.100 --> 00:52:29.630
Chairman of Chaos: Yes, sir!

808
00:52:30.160 --> 00:52:34.380
Chairman of Chaos: We… because we all got stories of the fat back sitting on top of the floor model.

809
00:52:34.380 --> 00:52:35.910
Manny: Hey, bro.

810
00:52:35.910 --> 00:52:41.679
Jeezy: My grandma had a floor model where the TV was on one side, and she had the A-track and the record player built in.

811
00:52:41.680 --> 00:52:42.640
Chairman of Chaos: Yes, sir?

812
00:52:42.640 --> 00:52:43.060
Manny: Yep.

813
00:52:44.260 --> 00:52:46.249
Jeezy: She only opened it on Christmas.

814
00:52:47.600 --> 00:52:49.220
Jeezy: Bruh, you might be right, Joe.

815
00:52:49.450 --> 00:52:52.480
Jeezy: You might be right.

816
00:52:53.210 --> 00:52:55.760
Jeezy: Well, moving on to our next segment.

817
00:52:56.130 --> 00:52:58.489
Jeezy: No, we had something interesting happen this past week.

818
00:52:58.750 --> 00:53:03.450
Jeezy: We had another, major primary night across the country.

819
00:53:03.760 --> 00:53:12.200
Jeezy: And if you're trying to figure out where the 2026 midterms are heading, these races gave us, some very clear clues.

820
00:53:12.680 --> 00:53:16.170
Jeezy: So we're gonna talk about that. Pennsylvania showed us…

821
00:53:16.470 --> 00:53:24.860
Jeezy: the Democratic strategy, Georgia showed us, Republican division, and Kentucky showed us that Donald Trump still has a grip.

822
00:53:25.280 --> 00:53:30.420
Jeezy: On the GOP. So… To break that down, I want to first look at Pennsylvania.

823
00:53:30.730 --> 00:53:48.870
Jeezy: And the Democrats are, betting big on electability. So Democrats scored some important wins, in swing district primaries. Candidates, backed heavily by, Pennsylvania Governor Josh Shapiro won key, nominations in districts that Democrats believe that they can flip come November.

824
00:53:49.200 --> 00:54:03.939
Jeezy: I'm not gonna go over the names, because the names matter less, nationally than the strategy behind them. Democrats are showing, clearly, that they're moving towards candidates viewed as disciplined, less ideological, suburban-friendly.

825
00:54:04.340 --> 00:54:15.649
Jeezy: and capable of winning moderates. So, when you look at that model, it can be claimed to be a win-first model. Now, Shapiro has become one of the most influential Democratic figures in the country right now.

826
00:54:15.850 --> 00:54:28.069
Jeezy: He's building a reputation as someone, who can unite establishment, Democrats, labor voters, suburban moderates, and anti-Trump independents, all under one umbrella.

827
00:54:28.160 --> 00:54:43.029
Jeezy: So, Manny, I'm gonna go to you for this. Are Democrats, when you look at what happened in Pennsylvania this past week, are Democrats basically telling progressives right now that we appreciate the energy, but we're prioritizing candidates that they believe can actually win, swing districts?

828
00:54:44.260 --> 00:54:50.220
Manny: If they are, it's possibly one of the smartest moves they could do leading up to the midterms.

829
00:54:50.500 --> 00:54:53.819
Jeezy: What? Democrats? Look!

830
00:54:54.950 --> 00:54:57.379
Manny: Every now and then, they… I'm like, oh, y'all…

831
00:54:57.380 --> 00:54:58.400
Jeezy: about right twice.

832
00:54:58.900 --> 00:54:59.410
Jeezy: day, right?

833
00:54:59.560 --> 00:55:03.280
Manny: Right, y'all may not… y'all… I was about to let another.

834
00:55:03.280 --> 00:55:03.820
Jeezy: Yo…

835
00:55:03.820 --> 00:55:05.960
Manny: Y'all not about to mess this up this time.

836
00:55:06.300 --> 00:55:11.139
Manny: And I think they're completely right. You know, y'all lost.

837
00:55:11.380 --> 00:55:17.949
Manny: Democrats lost bad, especially in these states, so that should tell you, you have to do something.

838
00:55:18.100 --> 00:55:22.789
Manny: Yeah. To try to pull these voters over, or at least present somebody

839
00:55:23.340 --> 00:55:26.549
Manny: That they can be kinda okay with.

840
00:55:27.100 --> 00:55:27.490
Jeezy: Yeah.

841
00:55:27.490 --> 00:55:28.469
Manny: Because they do not…

842
00:55:28.470 --> 00:55:29.000
Chairman of Chaos: Yes.

843
00:55:29.000 --> 00:55:29.550
Manny: guy.

844
00:55:29.820 --> 00:55:34.720
Manny: They do not like Trump, they do not like… and that's… and that's not me saying it.

845
00:55:35.410 --> 00:55:36.859
Manny: are saying with the favorability.

846
00:55:37.190 --> 00:55:38.519
Chairman of Chaos: So… Yeah, thanks.

847
00:55:38.520 --> 00:55:51.180
Manny: you can't do this massive swing. They're not ready for that adjustment. Now, I know the counterpoint you'll hear a lot of people argue from the Dem side is, well, well, when is it going to be our time? When's it going to be our time? And it's…

848
00:55:51.300 --> 00:55:52.230
Manny: It may not be.

849
00:55:52.230 --> 00:55:53.699
Jeezy: It may never leap.

850
00:55:54.030 --> 00:55:54.640
Manny: Mmm.

851
00:55:54.640 --> 00:55:57.410
Jeezy: Everybody gave me PTSD and my 5-year-old.

852
00:55:57.940 --> 00:55:59.429
Chairman of Chaos: When can I?

853
00:55:59.430 --> 00:56:02.090
Jeezy: When I have a turn? When is it my turn?

854
00:56:02.090 --> 00:56:03.530
Chairman of Chaos: Right.

855
00:56:03.530 --> 00:56:07.169
Manny: And it's like… You may never get a shot.

856
00:56:07.730 --> 00:56:14.810
Manny: But you may exist to progressively, over time, pull it a little bit further to the left.

857
00:56:15.890 --> 00:56:22.840
Manny: But it's not going to happen all at once. We said, if you've listened to this pod before, that one of the things that the Democrats could do

858
00:56:23.290 --> 00:56:28.959
Manny: And it would be a detriment to them, would be to overcorrect and swing too far to the left.

859
00:56:29.250 --> 00:56:29.860
Jeezy: Yep.

860
00:56:30.190 --> 00:56:38.120
Manny: And I'll… I'll save another part of this for later. Pennsylvania is making the correct decision for Pennsylvania.

861
00:56:38.570 --> 00:56:39.330
Jeezy: Bingo.

862
00:56:39.550 --> 00:56:42.010
Manny: If you're in California, run as liberal as you want.

863
00:56:42.150 --> 00:56:46.730
Manny: If you're in New York, liberal as you want. Connecticut? But Pennsylvania?

864
00:56:46.940 --> 00:56:48.330
Manny: Yeah. Ohio?

865
00:56:48.670 --> 00:56:50.050
Manny: North Carolina?

866
00:56:51.620 --> 00:56:53.700
Manny: That's… that's not a winning strategy.

867
00:56:54.020 --> 00:56:54.640
Manny: And…

868
00:56:54.640 --> 00:56:55.560
Chairman of Chaos: Preach, preacher.

869
00:56:55.560 --> 00:57:04.409
Manny: You put that in reverse. You're… you are in a… let's look at Texas, and Texas is gonna be real interesting when we look at the Senate level.

870
00:57:04.550 --> 00:57:07.360
Manny: Like, if you run too far to the right.

871
00:57:07.640 --> 00:57:12.339
Manny: Like, y'all have gotten out of these last couple of elections by the hairs of your chinny chin-chin.

872
00:57:12.340 --> 00:57:13.120
Chairman of Chaos: Yes, sir.

873
00:57:13.120 --> 00:57:16.860
Manny: So you run a little too far to the right, you risk losing it.

874
00:57:17.160 --> 00:57:33.549
Manny: you risk losing that moderate middle, and I don't understand… it seems like… Shapiro's also, I think, a really smart guy, and I think, from my standpoint, we've said it in the early days of this pod, the person that I believe should have been Kamala Harris's running mate.

875
00:57:33.770 --> 00:57:41.499
Manny: I understand why they kept Shapiro in Pennsylvania for a time like this, to be able to lead them through that.

876
00:57:41.780 --> 00:57:48.839
Manny: But… when you look at, District 8, it's only R plus… it's R plus 4.

877
00:57:48.960 --> 00:57:54.020
Manny: So, very close. And Pennsylvania 10, R plus 3.

878
00:57:54.220 --> 00:58:04.069
Manny: in a year where Republicans are carrying such high unfavorabilities, that is truly a toss-up district. I think you have to get in excess

879
00:58:04.400 --> 00:58:10.660
Manny: of R plus 7, R plus 8, for those particular races not to be super close.

880
00:58:11.180 --> 00:58:26.660
Manny: But it is, once again, it's going to come down to a handful of votes in counties, in cities, in communities that are going to do that. And your ability to make an electorate comfortable with you, even if they know on…

881
00:58:27.590 --> 00:58:31.929
Manny: 45% of the issues, you guys misalign.

882
00:58:32.040 --> 00:58:40.349
Manny: They have to feel comfortable enough that that 55% that they agree on will override that 40.

883
00:58:41.420 --> 00:58:43.090
Manny: So I think it's a smart play.

884
00:58:44.060 --> 00:58:55.450
Manny: And I would urge every other city to look… sorry, every other state to look at their electorate and make decisions based on their electorate, not what you see working.

885
00:58:56.260 --> 00:58:57.880
Manny: in other places.

886
00:59:01.790 --> 00:59:12.200
Chairman of Chaos: Spot on, brother, about Pennsylvania. Spot on. Like, there's nothing to follow up with that but re-emphasize the point of what Pennsylvania did for Pennsylvania.

887
00:59:12.320 --> 00:59:14.820
Chairman of Chaos: Works in Pennsylvania.

888
00:59:15.020 --> 00:59:17.880
Chairman of Chaos: The Democrats must, must.

889
00:59:18.120 --> 00:59:22.889
Chairman of Chaos: strategize… According to wherever you are.

890
00:59:23.120 --> 00:59:33.059
Manny: Yep. And I also think another big call-in here is Shapiro also needs Pennsylvan… obviously, he has his own race, and it's gonna be his own battle.

891
00:59:33.500 --> 00:59:51.029
Manny: But if he has 2028 aspirations, he needs to win the… he not only needs to win, but the team behind him also needs to win very comfortably for people to begin to coalesce behind him on what potentially could be a 2028 run.

892
00:59:51.400 --> 01:00:00.509
Manny: Which could hurt him in this election, because the question might be, are you focused on Pennsylvania and right now, or are you focused on 2028?

893
01:00:01.550 --> 01:00:02.290
Jeezy: Agreed.

894
01:00:02.550 --> 01:00:09.420
Jeezy: Well… while Democrats in, Pennsylvania looked relatively unified, Georgia

895
01:00:09.950 --> 01:00:17.770
Jeezy: look like a political family argument. So, Georgia has some… has a bit of chaos in the GOP.

896
01:00:18.170 --> 01:00:26.060
Jeezy: The Republican, Senate primary to challenge incumbent, Democratic Senator John Ossoff, didn't even…

897
01:00:26.170 --> 01:00:39.979
Jeezy: produce a winner. Instead, it is headed into a runoff between Mike Collins and former football coach, Derek Dooley. And that matters because while Republicans are spending money attacking each other.

898
01:00:40.740 --> 01:00:48.300
Jeezy: for another month, you know, John gets to sit back and raise money, organize, and look stable.

899
01:00:48.410 --> 01:01:04.249
Jeezy: And, you know, Georgia Republicans still seem divided over what kind of party they want to be. Are they going to be pure, MAGA populists? Are they going to be traditional conservatives? Or, are they going to have an outside, outsider candidate type of look?

900
01:01:04.430 --> 01:01:12.999
Jeezy: But at the same time, several Trump critics and establishment-aligned Republicans have lost influence in Georgia statewide races.

901
01:01:13.160 --> 01:01:19.199
Jeezy: Even in the Lieutenant Governor and the Secretary of State races, there wasn't enough unity to avoid

902
01:01:19.430 --> 01:01:24.480
Jeezy: runoffs. So, I'm gonna ask this question to Chuck, who… Is in this area.

903
01:01:24.790 --> 01:01:39.320
Jeezy: Is Georgia becoming a warning sign for Republicans where the primary fights are so intense that by the time they get to the general election, they've already exhausted voters and exhausted their resources as well?

904
01:01:40.310 --> 01:01:47.990
Chairman of Chaos: Very much so, man. It's very interesting, what's going on in the GOP, because…

905
01:01:48.570 --> 01:02:02.590
Chairman of Chaos: not only are they, like you said, infighting, but you have those who are trying to toe the line of not alienating MAGA supporters.

906
01:02:03.360 --> 01:02:04.949
Chairman of Chaos: But also, at the same time.

907
01:02:05.470 --> 01:02:22.549
Chairman of Chaos: trying to stand as far away from MAGA as they possibly can. And that's truly what you get in this Dooley versus Collins matchup, because Collins has deemed himself as a MAGA warrior.

908
01:02:23.120 --> 01:02:37.829
Chairman of Chaos: his words exactly on his ads, a MAGA warrior. And in this, he's, you know, fully entrenched in it, whereas Derek Dooley, he has a couple things working in his favor.

909
01:02:38.100 --> 01:02:46.229
Chairman of Chaos: number one, he's the son of former Georgia, I wanna say quarterback, coach, whatever, Vince Dooley.

910
01:02:46.410 --> 01:02:52.569
Chairman of Chaos: The name in Georgia is highly revered, highly loved, and so he has that going.

911
01:02:52.800 --> 01:03:00.919
Chairman of Chaos: Where you see the fighting is… Dooley is endorsed and supported by John… How about I say John Kemp? That is not that man's name.

912
01:03:00.920 --> 01:03:02.170
Manny: Brian.

913
01:03:02.170 --> 01:03:03.940
Chairman of Chaos: Why are you cute?

914
01:03:05.000 --> 01:03:06.150
Chairman of Chaos: And…

915
01:03:06.400 --> 01:03:16.890
Chairman of Chaos: Collins has had some support, although Trump has not come out and fully said that he's endorsing him, but he has some support from Trump.

916
01:03:17.020 --> 01:03:20.480
Chairman of Chaos: And so… For those who don't know.

917
01:03:21.010 --> 01:03:25.140
Chairman of Chaos: Trump and Kemp have had some of their own

918
01:03:25.470 --> 01:03:39.099
Chairman of Chaos: TIFs. I won't call them fights, but they've had some of their tiffs. Brian Kemp has given a lot of pushback to Trump in several different instances in regards to Georgia, and so…

919
01:03:39.630 --> 01:03:49.040
Chairman of Chaos: Those two kind of… you put it perfectly. It's like a family fight. And you have one side that's…

920
01:03:49.630 --> 01:03:52.209
Chairman of Chaos: Pushin', and the other side, that's…

921
01:03:52.550 --> 01:04:11.650
Chairman of Chaos: Fully extreme, and you even see that in our, the governor… the gubernatorial primary for the Republican side, because that's in a runoff as well. You have, current Lieutenant Governor Burt Jones versus Rick Jackson. Well, Burt Jones has a Trump endorsement.

922
01:04:12.920 --> 01:04:14.280
Chairman of Chaos: Rick Jackson…

923
01:04:14.730 --> 01:04:15.290
Manny: has money.

924
01:04:15.290 --> 01:04:23.189
Chairman of Chaos: much Monday. I got Monday, and I got plenty.

925
01:04:23.580 --> 01:04:26.380
Chairman of Chaos: He's also playing that line like dually.

926
01:04:26.500 --> 01:04:31.259
Chairman of Chaos: He… you know, sits… talks about how he supports Trump.

927
01:04:31.670 --> 01:04:40.260
Chairman of Chaos: But he hasn't, you know, full-on, I'm a MAGA. You know, he touts, I'm a true conservative.

928
01:04:40.430 --> 01:04:52.920
Chairman of Chaos: I'm, you know, and I'm not a career politician. Dooley is on that same line. I am someone different. I've been in football, I've been in this space, I have… I'm not one of the…

929
01:04:53.150 --> 01:05:06.969
Chairman of Chaos: career politicians or mainstays in Washington, and if I'm not mistaken, when I was watching the election night coverage, Dooley has even put himself on a two-year, two-term limit. He said he's only serving two terms.

930
01:05:07.160 --> 01:05:08.110
Manny: And then he's walking.

931
01:05:08.110 --> 01:05:09.390
Chairman of Chaos: Unbelievable.

932
01:05:09.390 --> 01:05:10.349
Manny: kind of NAMM person.

933
01:05:10.350 --> 01:05:21.290
Chairman of Chaos: Listen, I ain't taking these people word… I don't know these folks. However, to the point I'm making of…

934
01:05:21.640 --> 01:05:32.779
Chairman of Chaos: the lip service that they're providing to try to win their argument that I'm not like these career politicians, and so they're spending money.

935
01:05:33.250 --> 01:05:36.410
Chairman of Chaos: if I'm not mistaken, I saw…

936
01:05:36.590 --> 01:05:42.820
Chairman of Chaos: that Rick Jackson has spent almost 20, if not $30 million,

937
01:05:43.030 --> 01:05:45.230
Chairman of Chaos: In his campaign. Oh, I've heard…

938
01:05:45.230 --> 01:05:52.340
Manny: I've heard a humongous number. I'm hearing that, like, combined races approaching, like, the triple digits.

939
01:05:52.340 --> 01:05:55.700
Chairman of Chaos: No, combined, I'm talking about Rick Jackson by himself.

940
01:05:55.700 --> 01:05:57.070
Manny: Oh, out of his own pocket.

941
01:05:57.070 --> 01:06:07.979
Chairman of Chaos: Yes, out of his own pocket. And now we are in the runoff in June. First off, y'all pray for me, because I gotta deal with these stupid ads.

942
01:06:08.420 --> 01:06:08.840
Jeezy: Bruh.

943
01:06:09.050 --> 01:06:14.790
Chairman of Chaos: is hear them and see him everywhere. It can't stop, won't stop, until then. But…

944
01:06:14.960 --> 01:06:18.759
Chairman of Chaos: This… the amount of money that's being spent.

945
01:06:18.980 --> 01:06:21.960
Chairman of Chaos: Y-you may wear these folks out.

946
01:06:22.140 --> 01:06:31.750
Chairman of Chaos: Yeah. And… as Manny has emphasized time and time again, the midterm turnout is not…

947
01:06:31.920 --> 01:06:34.649
Chairman of Chaos: Jim… the same as a presidential turnout.

948
01:06:35.330 --> 01:06:38.510
Chairman of Chaos: So, for you to get them to show up.

949
01:06:39.270 --> 01:06:45.900
Chairman of Chaos: For the midterm primary, and then they… now they have to go and show up for a runoff.

950
01:06:46.260 --> 01:06:49.109
Chairman of Chaos: And then turn around and show up for the general?

951
01:06:49.690 --> 01:06:50.450
Manny: Yep.

952
01:06:50.450 --> 01:06:51.840
Chairman of Chaos: How much can you press your lungs?

953
01:06:52.250 --> 01:07:00.570
Manny: Wait, so… so, Chuck, you're down there. So, is… is Dooley treating MAGA the same way I treat the Raiders right now? We're like…

954
01:07:01.050 --> 01:07:15.249
Chairman of Chaos: I won't say quite like that, because I feel like you'd be lying to us sometimes when you be at the… you be at the house cheering for the Raiders. You just don't cheer for them in the group chat. Yeah, yeah.

955
01:07:15.250 --> 01:07:16.219
Jeezy: That's true to me.

956
01:07:16.220 --> 01:07:25.390
Chairman of Chaos: Duly, I believe he aligns with some of Trump's thinkings and certain things, but he won't openly call himself MAGA.

957
01:07:25.480 --> 01:07:26.290
Manny: Miss.

958
01:07:26.970 --> 01:07:27.460
Manny: That's right.

959
01:07:27.460 --> 01:07:31.420
Jeezy: So I think another layer when you look at Georgia is…

960
01:07:31.710 --> 01:07:34.529
Jeezy: There's a bigger issue for Republicans there.

961
01:07:35.180 --> 01:07:38.980
Jeezy: Georgia isn't the deep red state that it used to be.

962
01:07:38.980 --> 01:07:40.100
Manny: Nope. Oh, no.

963
01:07:40.100 --> 01:07:40.500
Chairman of Chaos: Oh, no.

964
01:07:40.900 --> 01:07:56.880
Jeezy: So, you know, Biden won there in 2020, Trump narrowly reclaimed it later. And when you look at the margins across the board, the margins are razor thin now. So, every ounce of division that the GOP has really does matter.

965
01:07:56.880 --> 01:07:57.240
Chairman of Chaos: Oh, boy.

966
01:07:57.240 --> 01:07:58.770
Jeezy: Go ahead, I'm sorry, brother.

967
01:07:58.970 --> 01:08:02.130
Chairman of Chaos: I was gonna say, to that point about the razor-thin margins.

968
01:08:02.240 --> 01:08:11.689
Chairman of Chaos: And Trump barely, losing in 2020, the, Secretary of State, Brad Raffensperger, who was in that,

969
01:08:12.000 --> 01:08:16.899
Chairman of Chaos: In that governor's race, to further cement this point,

970
01:08:17.270 --> 01:08:20.830
Chairman of Chaos: Could be a key factor in… in the runoff.

971
01:08:21.140 --> 01:08:27.849
Chairman of Chaos: For… for governor, which… unlike North Carolina, a lot of times.

972
01:08:28.620 --> 01:08:41.520
Chairman of Chaos: you… I think it hasn't been a Democratic governor in Georgia for 20-something years, almost 30 years. It's been a minute. I think… I want to say it was 98, I want to say, if I remember correctly. Either way.

973
01:08:42.180 --> 01:08:44.069
Chairman of Chaos: the infighting.

974
01:08:44.200 --> 01:08:45.720
Chairman of Chaos: is really…

975
01:08:45.930 --> 01:08:54.680
Chairman of Chaos: it's really gonna be interesting how those who were supporting that third candidate, because here in Georgia, it requires a majority

976
01:08:55.010 --> 01:09:02.170
Chairman of Chaos: For the person to get the nomination. And that's why we have these runoffs. Every state is not this way. And so…

977
01:09:02.270 --> 01:09:09.390
Chairman of Chaos: Whoever can pull more of the supporters from that third candidate.

978
01:09:09.689 --> 01:09:23.249
Chairman of Chaos: is gonna be… well, of course, like we said, turnout, but that third candidate is gonna be interesting, because the guy for… who was the third candidate, I think the… the Senate race had 5 people for the GOP running.

979
01:09:23.250 --> 01:09:23.700
Manny: Yeah.

980
01:09:23.700 --> 01:09:24.790
Chairman of Chaos: And…

981
01:09:24.899 --> 01:09:37.660
Chairman of Chaos: Of those 5, the top 3 was Mike Collins, Derek Dooley, and Buddy Carter. And for a lot of the night, it was between Derek and Buddy were going back and forth who would be facing Mike Collins.

982
01:09:37.779 --> 01:09:41.579
Chairman of Chaos: In the runoff, But some of the attack ads…

983
01:09:42.149 --> 01:09:46.680
Chairman of Chaos: that Mike Collins ran against Buddy Carter were super vicious.

984
01:09:47.340 --> 01:09:47.680
Manny: Mmm.

985
01:09:47.689 --> 01:09:48.339
Chairman of Chaos: Mike.

986
01:09:48.479 --> 01:09:49.929
Chairman of Chaos: Nasty work.

987
01:09:50.189 --> 01:09:55.269
Chairman of Chaos: And, and honestly, A lot of people didn't even consider

988
01:09:55.649 --> 01:10:01.449
Chairman of Chaos: Derek Dooley to be a factor. They thought it was a Mike Collins-Buddy Carter race.

989
01:10:01.659 --> 01:10:05.059
Chairman of Chaos: And… Derek will be bringing up the rear.

990
01:10:05.819 --> 01:10:09.649
Chairman of Chaos: Well, that wasn't the case when Derek Dooley got 30% of the votes.

991
01:10:09.890 --> 01:10:17.379
Manny: I mean, that… that is the… that's the flip side of cutting an ad that's a little too vicious, because then you.

992
01:10:17.380 --> 01:10:17.820
Chairman of Chaos: Yes.

993
01:10:17.820 --> 01:10:19.740
Manny: Voters… voter sympathy.

994
01:10:19.740 --> 01:10:21.199
Chairman of Chaos: Yep. Yep.

995
01:10:21.590 --> 01:10:25.909
Manny: And when that voter's sympathy kicks, it's hard to undo voter sympathy.

996
01:10:25.910 --> 01:10:30.820
Chairman of Chaos: Yeah, and to finish off, me talking about Georgia.

997
01:10:31.350 --> 01:10:32.690
Chairman of Chaos: John Ossoff…

998
01:10:33.390 --> 01:10:45.400
Chairman of Chaos: cut an ad probably about a week or two ago, which he, you know, he didn't have… he was unopposed, so he didn't have to do any campaigning. As Jesus said, he's just sitting back.

999
01:10:45.550 --> 01:10:51.200
Chairman of Chaos: Raising funds, you know, building his momentum, formulating his ground attack.

1000
01:10:51.360 --> 01:10:53.800
Chairman of Chaos: He dropped, like, a 5-minute video

1001
01:10:54.250 --> 01:10:57.470
Chairman of Chaos: That was 5 minutes of bars.

1002
01:10:57.820 --> 01:10:59.049
Chairman of Chaos: I'm talking…

1003
01:10:59.440 --> 01:11:08.969
Chairman of Chaos: eel bars, talking to the American people, talking to Georgians, about where we are now, everything that we're dealing with.

1004
01:11:09.140 --> 01:11:13.850
Chairman of Chaos: And do you want to continue to deal with this? And he's hitting…

1005
01:11:14.310 --> 01:11:20.959
Chairman of Chaos: hidden in the purses. Like Manny tell you, People gonna vote on…

1006
01:11:20.960 --> 01:11:21.530
Manny: be checking.

1007
01:11:21.530 --> 01:11:28.839
Chairman of Chaos: They're gonna vote that paycheck. They vote them pockets. And… that… I'm gonna have to share it with y'all, but he's…

1008
01:11:28.840 --> 01:11:29.580
Jeezy: Yeah, I gotta see that.

1009
01:11:29.580 --> 01:11:30.220
Chairman of Chaos: bars.

1010
01:11:30.220 --> 01:11:30.630
Manny: Hmm.

1011
01:11:30.630 --> 01:11:31.510
Chairman of Chaos: bars.

1012
01:11:31.510 --> 01:11:36.540
Jeezy: And I think the thing about him, too, is that he's battle-tested already, because he had the…

1013
01:11:36.540 --> 01:11:36.970
Chairman of Chaos: Yes.

1014
01:11:36.970 --> 01:11:37.820
Jeezy: get in.

1015
01:11:37.970 --> 01:11:40.040
Chairman of Chaos: He had to fight, he had to fight…

1016
01:11:40.490 --> 01:11:48.710
Chairman of Chaos: Because he got in on the… first on the special election, and then he had to defend that, and now here he is again.

1017
01:11:48.950 --> 01:12:04.210
Jeezy: So he ain't new to this, he's true to this, for sure. So, even when you look… I know we talked about the Republicans, but for the Democrats, Democrats don't necessarily need to dominate Georgia. They just need Republicans to stay messy long enough.

1018
01:12:04.210 --> 01:12:18.380
Chairman of Chaos: Well, the Senate… the Senate needs John, because if John Ossoff loses, there's a hard road for them to flip the Senate if John Ossoff loses. It's possible, but it's gonna be a hard road.

1019
01:12:18.560 --> 01:12:22.819
Jeezy: Yeah, yeah. No, you're exactly right. And I… you know, it's gonna be interesting, because…

1020
01:12:23.300 --> 01:12:27.919
Jeezy: the division right now for the GOP in Georgia, that clock is ticking.

1021
01:12:28.030 --> 01:12:30.219
Jeezy: And the longer it goes on.

1022
01:12:30.480 --> 01:12:36.999
Jeezy: And those resources started to get depleted, and, you know, it's a lot to have voters come out

1023
01:12:37.140 --> 01:12:38.320
Jeezy: Just once.

1024
01:12:38.450 --> 01:12:44.529
Jeezy: but to have them in these runoffs, and then you have not too long after that, a couple of months, it'll be November, and then…

1025
01:12:44.900 --> 01:12:45.830
Jeezy: That's rough, man.

1026
01:12:45.830 --> 01:12:51.160
Manny: And then on top of that, the money that… you're just burning assets for no reason.

1027
01:12:51.160 --> 01:12:51.780
Jeezy: Oh.

1028
01:12:51.910 --> 01:12:54.759
Manny: Very much friendly fire to burn these assets.

1029
01:12:56.230 --> 01:13:04.769
Jeezy: Yeah, I completely agree. You know, I know we talked about Pennsylvania, and I know we talked about Georgia, but I want to take us back up to Kentucky.

1030
01:13:04.770 --> 01:13:09.550
Manny: Mama no! Mama no! No!

1031
01:13:10.010 --> 01:13:10.950
Manny: No!

1032
01:13:10.950 --> 01:13:13.300
Chairman of Chaos: So, will we…

1033
01:13:13.300 --> 01:13:22.020
Jeezy: When we look at Kentucky, I think Kentucky might have been the clearest message of the night when we look at the primaries. So, Congressman…

1034
01:13:22.390 --> 01:13:28.059
Jeezy: brother Thomas Massey. He get deemed a brother at the pod, at least for this.

1035
01:13:28.230 --> 01:13:33.509
Jeezy: He's been a long-time conservative, and one of the few Republicans willingly,

1036
01:13:33.710 --> 01:13:36.189
Jeezy: willing to openly challenge Trump.

1037
01:13:37.070 --> 01:13:46.600
Jeezy: That cost him. He lost his primary to a Trump-backed candidate, by the name of Ed Gallring, I believe is how you say his name.

1038
01:13:46.600 --> 01:13:47.460
Manny: say today.

1039
01:13:47.940 --> 01:13:49.700
Jeezy: Mr. Ed, that's what we gonna call him.

1040
01:13:50.060 --> 01:13:52.030
Manny: He lost his race.

1041
01:13:52.030 --> 01:14:09.300
Jeezy: to Mr. Ed. So, and this wasn't just another race. Trump really made this race, personal. You know, he criticized, Massey on, on all the things that Massey spoke out against, which Massey has been very critical on the president, on Iran.

1042
01:14:09.450 --> 01:14:16.039
Jeezy: spending… His executive power, and, you know, most notably, even the Epstein Files.

1043
01:14:16.540 --> 01:14:21.079
Jeezy: Trump essentially turned this race into a loyalty test, and like most…

1044
01:14:21.450 --> 01:14:35.099
Jeezy: Massey lost. And that message, that sends a message to every Republican, I believe, in Washington, that if you openly oppose Trump, your seat may not be safe. So, Manny, I will ask you this. Do you think that Republican lawmakers

1045
01:14:35.170 --> 01:14:48.099
Jeezy: watched that race in Kentucky and immediately thought, mmm, I'm not crossing Trump publicly anymore. Do you think that the lesson has been learned in what happened to Brother Massey?

1046
01:14:48.100 --> 01:14:52.029
Manny: Man, like I answered the other question, it depends.

1047
01:14:52.410 --> 01:14:56.430
Manny: It depends. If you've already won your primary.

1048
01:14:57.890 --> 01:15:07.849
Manny: you're good. You're good, because you are now able to tie any time you oppose the administration under the fact that, hey, this is about keeping the House and the Senate.

1049
01:15:08.260 --> 01:15:10.569
Manny: But if you still got a race coming up.

1050
01:15:10.710 --> 01:15:16.059
Manny: you, you find yourself in quite the predicament, once again.

1051
01:15:17.790 --> 01:15:23.160
Manny: All Thomas Massey has done in this term has just stand on his beliefs.

1052
01:15:24.030 --> 01:15:29.730
Manny: You know, the ridiculous spending that we saw in the big, beautiful bill.

1053
01:15:29.910 --> 01:15:47.740
Manny: the standing on that we need to protect children, and the demanding of the release of the Epstein files. The opposing of the military action in Iran, A, for the cost, and B, it was not focused, is not of a true threat to America. That is all he did.

1054
01:15:48.120 --> 01:15:56.829
Manny: A lot of the other stuff he rides with, you know, Trump and the Republicans, 3 votes. Three votes on three topics forced him out.

1055
01:15:57.030 --> 01:16:02.099
Manny: And… I think if… if you're com… if you are…

1056
01:16:02.610 --> 01:16:08.039
Manny: waiting on a primary, you're real nervous. But you know what? I also think, if you're in Kentucky.

1057
01:16:08.620 --> 01:16:14.769
Manny: You should be concerned in general, because you can't afford to lose any seats.

1058
01:16:15.230 --> 01:16:27.540
Manny: And, you know, we were talking pre-pod about the… the comparison of their… the parties that happened after… after the election, and geez, I think it was you that said it, that, like.

1059
01:16:27.940 --> 01:16:34.920
Manny: Mr. Ed's, looked like it was the end of the PTA meeting, and they were about to start stacking the chairs.

1060
01:16:35.100 --> 01:16:39.899
Jeezy: Bruh, he had his watch party in the lobby at the Holiday Inn. Right.

1061
01:16:39.980 --> 01:16:43.499
Manny: So, it's like, okay, so you take somebody like that.

1062
01:16:43.640 --> 01:16:49.140
Manny: And the support that Massey has, not only in that district, but across the state.

1063
01:16:49.390 --> 01:16:56.440
Manny: does a lot of that get lost? Not only that, before your Senate race. For,

1064
01:16:56.620 --> 01:17:05.229
Manny: Kentucky 6. Do you lose a lot of the support there, too? Does this… I think the dangerous part for Republicans here is

1065
01:17:05.470 --> 01:17:14.440
Manny: again, looking at Trump's favorability, looking at the state the economy's in, looking at everything we know right now, and how people are genuinely feeling.

1066
01:17:14.640 --> 01:17:19.770
Manny: This creates an opportunity for a Democratic Party.

1067
01:17:20.590 --> 01:17:25.910
Manny: To actually potentially pick up seats, if you have nominated the right people.

1068
01:17:27.710 --> 01:17:41.179
Manny: And I think if you are in a red seat, you have to… you're… the Republicans that come… sorry, the Democrats that come out of Republican states, I think, are already going to be kind of center… center-left anyways.

1069
01:17:41.720 --> 01:17:54.069
Manny: But this creates… I think it creates an opportunity for Dems to have some pickups, especially when we're looking at a House and Senate races for control that is going to be decided by one or two seats.

1070
01:17:54.770 --> 01:17:56.810
Manny: Did Trump accidentally…

1071
01:17:57.940 --> 01:18:03.120
Manny: give up Kentucky for? And I think it's a possibility that we'll find out over the next couple months.

1072
01:18:03.120 --> 01:18:03.710
Jeezy: Mmm.

1073
01:18:05.790 --> 01:18:07.079
Jeezy: It's gonna be interesting, man.

1074
01:18:07.080 --> 01:18:11.690
Manny: And before we go, can we get a moment of silence for Brother Massey?

1075
01:18:12.650 --> 01:18:13.620
Chairman of Chaos: No, not yet.

1076
01:18:13.620 --> 01:18:14.280
Manny: Yeah, okay.

1077
01:18:14.280 --> 01:18:15.180
Chairman of Chaos: Not yet.

1078
01:18:15.180 --> 01:18:16.619
Manny: Brother Massey, we…

1079
01:18:16.810 --> 01:18:21.040
Manny: We're gonna get an invite in the mail over to you to join us on the pod for an episode.

1080
01:18:21.040 --> 01:18:21.420
Chairman of Chaos: I agree.

1081
01:18:21.730 --> 01:18:24.809
Jeezy: We're after grievances.

1082
01:18:25.350 --> 01:18:32.699
Chairman of Chaos: Well, I'mma be a contrarian to my brother Jeezy, I'm not gonna give him the brother title. He voted with Trump 91% of the time.

1083
01:18:32.840 --> 01:18:42.710
Chairman of Chaos: He just stood up on principle in regards to nasty men dealing with children, and for that, I respect, but you ain't getting no brother title for that, or an invite to the cookout.

1084
01:18:43.200 --> 01:18:45.780
Jeezy: Chuck said, I find you not a brother nor a friend.

1085
01:18:46.090 --> 01:18:47.230
Chairman of Chaos: No afraid.

1086
01:18:47.230 --> 01:18:47.600
Jeezy: Got him.

1087
01:18:49.550 --> 01:18:53.969
Chairman of Chaos: However, I do have a brother here that I would like to have a request for.

1088
01:18:54.080 --> 01:18:56.680
Chairman of Chaos: Brother Manny, can I borrow your hat?

1089
01:18:56.990 --> 01:18:57.410
Jeezy: -Oh.

1090
01:18:57.480 --> 01:18:59.750
Manny: Here we go, here we go, I'll throw it on for you.

1091
01:19:00.490 --> 01:19:02.250
Audio shared by Jeezy: Yes, sir. Appreciate it.

1092
01:19:03.010 --> 01:19:04.309
Jeezy: Yes, sir!

1093
01:19:05.220 --> 01:19:10.800
Chairman of Chaos: Although… the good… good Sir Thomas Massey and standing on principle.

1094
01:19:11.210 --> 01:19:12.840
Chairman of Chaos: Lost this race.

1095
01:19:14.260 --> 01:19:16.309
Chairman of Chaos: I have some questions.

1096
01:19:16.660 --> 01:19:17.560
Manny: Okay. -Oh.

1097
01:19:17.620 --> 01:19:19.330
Chairman of Chaos: The numbers!

1098
01:19:20.180 --> 01:19:21.730
Manny: The numbers ain't numbers. No, it makes sense.

1099
01:19:27.760 --> 01:19:28.730
Chairman of Chaos: Manny.

1100
01:19:29.360 --> 01:19:32.669
Chairman of Chaos: How many total votes, if you have not looked at the numbers.

1101
01:19:32.900 --> 01:19:35.090
Chairman of Chaos: Well, let me know, have you looked at the numbers?

1102
01:19:35.090 --> 01:19:40.570
Manny: at the exact numbers. After I saw that he… after it got announced that he lost, I was, I was.

1103
01:19:40.570 --> 01:19:41.560
Chairman of Chaos: And there it is.

1104
01:19:41.560 --> 01:19:44.000
Manny: bunches and said, screw this.

1105
01:19:44.520 --> 01:19:46.119
Chairman of Chaos: How many total votes?

1106
01:19:46.520 --> 01:19:51.380
Chairman of Chaos: Do you think… was casted… In this primary.

1107
01:19:56.780 --> 01:20:05.550
Manny: My guess is it's gonna be somewhere close to 100,000. I remember reading a stat that…

1108
01:20:06.520 --> 01:20:23.969
Manny: Mr. Ed got the… almost the same amount of… about… sorry. Mr. Ed got close to the same amount of votes that was casted in totality in any of the previous, elections, if I said that right.

1109
01:20:26.030 --> 01:20:27.950
Chairman of Chaos: Yeah, I don't know about that, but…

1110
01:20:29.710 --> 01:20:42.250
Chairman of Chaos: You were not far off. There were 104,071 total votes casted for… for… either for Tom Massey or Mr. Ed.

1111
01:20:42.250 --> 01:20:42.790
Manny: Okay.

1112
01:20:42.790 --> 01:20:44.480
Chairman of Chaos: 104,000.

1113
01:20:46.120 --> 01:20:49.099
Chairman of Chaos: Can you guess what is the highest

1114
01:20:49.350 --> 01:20:58.030
Chairman of Chaos: Vote total, cast it for a primary, in the past, Massey is a 7-term.

1115
01:20:58.030 --> 01:20:59.699
Manny: Yeah, since 2012.

1116
01:20:59.880 --> 01:21:04.280
Chairman of Chaos: Say… say since… 2018 to now.

1117
01:21:04.590 --> 01:21:06.980
Chairman of Chaos: Can you just guess the total.

1118
01:21:06.980 --> 01:21:07.619
Manny: I'm gonna go…

1119
01:21:07.620 --> 01:21:08.840
Chairman of Chaos: Highest total number.

1120
01:21:08.840 --> 01:21:10.439
Manny: I'm gonna go with about 60K.

1121
01:21:10.780 --> 01:21:12.649
Manny: In total, both candidates?

1122
01:21:12.650 --> 01:21:13.230
Chairman of Chaos: Yeah.

1123
01:21:13.230 --> 01:21:15.150
Manny: Yeah, I'm gonna say it's probably 60K.

1124
01:21:15.410 --> 01:21:24.099
Chairman of Chaos: You're off. It's $84,683. This was back in 2020.

1125
01:21:25.040 --> 01:21:32.309
Chairman of Chaos: when Thomas Massey went against Todd McMurtry, But in that race.

1126
01:21:32.310 --> 01:21:33.650
Manny: 26 pounds. How much better.

1127
01:21:35.460 --> 01:21:38.439
Chairman of Chaos: What? No, I said $84,600.

1128
01:21:38.440 --> 01:21:39.780
Manny: But, like… But I was scared.

1129
01:21:39.780 --> 01:21:41.100
Chairman of Chaos: Oh yeah, the difference, the difference.

1130
01:21:41.100 --> 01:21:42.380
Manny: Yeah, the difference between, yeah.

1131
01:21:42.380 --> 01:21:45.509
Chairman of Chaos: But hold on, peep this. This is where it gets even more interesting.

1132
01:21:45.750 --> 01:21:52.489
Chairman of Chaos: Thomas Massey had 68,591 votes of that 84,000.

1133
01:21:53.040 --> 01:21:53.580
Manny: Hmm.

1134
01:21:54.290 --> 01:21:55.540
Chairman of Chaos: 2022?

1135
01:21:56.170 --> 01:22:00.070
Chairman of Chaos: The total was $66,874.

1136
01:22:00.330 --> 01:22:04.859
Chairman of Chaos: Of that, Thomas Maxley had 75% of it. 50,000 votes.

1137
01:22:05.620 --> 01:22:07.350
Chairman of Chaos: In 2024.

1138
01:22:07.620 --> 01:22:11.560
Chairman of Chaos: It was 52,593,000 votes.

1139
01:22:12.680 --> 01:22:23.110
Chairman of Chaos: Of that, Thomas Massey had 75.9% at 39,929. The reason I bring this up, because in 2024,

1140
01:22:23.200 --> 01:22:34.110
Chairman of Chaos: the total number of votes for a general election, and the reason I use 2024, because guess what, y'all? That was a presidential election as well, so you're gonna have a higher number of turnouts.

1141
01:22:34.110 --> 01:22:35.440
Manny: Yeah, yep.

1142
01:22:35.440 --> 01:22:48.280
Chairman of Chaos: 207… 279,517 votes. So you're trying to tell me… that… 40-something… percent?

1143
01:22:48.890 --> 01:22:57.509
Chairman of Chaos: Came out in difference. Only 179,000 vote difference from a general election to a primary.

1144
01:22:58.030 --> 01:22:58.480
Manny: -Oh.

1145
01:22:58.480 --> 01:23:02.810
Chairman of Chaos: I'm gonna go to 2020, just to give y'all the numbers, just to see what I'm talking about.

1146
01:23:03.020 --> 01:23:04.630
Chairman of Chaos: In the primary.

1147
01:23:05.240 --> 01:23:22.430
Chairman of Chaos: In the primary, where you get your highest number in an election year, was 84,683. In the general election, which was a very… 2020 was a very big year of voting, 382,509.

1148
01:23:23.080 --> 01:23:27.440
Chairman of Chaos: These are presidential years, and the primary that year was the 52,000.

1149
01:23:28.150 --> 01:23:32.269
Chairman of Chaos: A non-presidential election year, you get over 100,000 votes?

1150
01:23:32.270 --> 01:23:34.249
Manny: - something don't smell right.

1151
01:23:34.400 --> 01:23:41.269
Chairman of Chaos: It don't smell right, and it ain't the fish in the alley, or the beans burning in the kitchen, or the grill, wherever you want to take it.

1152
01:23:41.810 --> 01:23:51.809
Chairman of Chaos: So… Then you have this one individual spending $32 million to support this, this campaign…

1153
01:23:51.810 --> 01:23:55.979
Manny: and the most expensive House primary in American…

1154
01:23:56.340 --> 01:23:58.820
Chairman of Chaos: History. History. In Kentucky.

1155
01:24:00.110 --> 01:24:01.330
Chairman of Chaos: In Kentucky.

1156
01:24:02.990 --> 01:24:10.329
Chairman of Chaos: Make it make sense. Now, yes, there's been a strong showing of you shouldn't cross Trump.

1157
01:24:10.750 --> 01:24:15.149
Chairman of Chaos: you know, you had it in Indiana with those three individuals who lost, who did not support…

1158
01:24:15.150 --> 01:24:21.579
Manny: To that tune? To that tune, against, like, the second most popular politician in that state?

1159
01:24:22.240 --> 01:24:26.959
Chairman of Chaos: Yeah. Exactly. But… but… so this is… this is why I'm…

1160
01:24:27.660 --> 01:24:30.369
Chairman of Chaos: Had my brother throw the hat on, because…

1161
01:24:30.490 --> 01:24:32.629
Chairman of Chaos: In Indiana, you had those 3.

1162
01:24:34.360 --> 01:24:38.199
Chairman of Chaos: In Louisiana, you had Cassidy there, my good brother…

1163
01:24:38.650 --> 01:24:40.840
Chairman of Chaos: You know, gave us Game On last week.

1164
01:24:41.740 --> 01:24:43.550
Chairman of Chaos: Now you got Thomas Massey.

1165
01:24:43.910 --> 01:24:48.439
Chairman of Chaos: And there's already questions about… Vote manipulation.

1166
01:24:50.480 --> 01:24:51.689
Chairman of Chaos: In 2024.

1167
01:24:52.440 --> 01:24:57.919
Chairman of Chaos: Now, these primaries and these single-focused primaries, where I can zoom in and target in.

1168
01:25:00.020 --> 01:25:08.819
Chairman of Chaos: Hold on. If the same primary election… no, this is not a direct correlation, but generally the numbers are…

1169
01:25:09.410 --> 01:25:13.470
Chairman of Chaos: more reminiscent, or… Right. I can't say reminiscent, but…

1170
01:25:13.750 --> 01:25:16.190
Chairman of Chaos: They coincide. They make more sense, yeah. Yes.

1171
01:25:16.910 --> 01:25:21.749
Chairman of Chaos: Manny, guess how many votes were casted in the Democratic primary?

1172
01:25:22.360 --> 01:25:24.440
Chairman of Chaos: Same, same election, same day.

1173
01:25:24.650 --> 01:25:26.819
Manny: I would guess it's probably about a quarter.

1174
01:25:27.880 --> 01:25:28.870
Chairman of Chaos: 40,000.

1175
01:25:29.250 --> 01:25:37.849
Chairman of Chaos: 40,930, so you're telling me… Over 60,000 more votes were casted in the Republican race.

1176
01:25:39.550 --> 01:25:42.390
Chairman of Chaos: 60,000? In the same district?

1177
01:25:44.020 --> 01:25:44.600
Manny: Hmm.

1178
01:25:45.890 --> 01:25:47.550
Manny: Something's afoot.

1179
01:25:47.830 --> 01:25:48.850
Jeezy: Something else smell right.

1180
01:25:48.850 --> 01:25:50.530
Chairman of Chaos: And it ain't Shredded soldiers.

1181
01:25:53.050 --> 01:25:58.700
Chairman of Chaos: Like, it… so yeah, that… Yeah.

1182
01:25:58.700 --> 01:26:03.560
Jeezy: Well, I think when we look at the Senate side of Kentucky, we thought.

1183
01:26:03.560 --> 01:26:05.450
Chairman of Chaos: Oh, boy.

1184
01:26:06.000 --> 01:26:08.359
Jeezy: the, the, the, the tortoise?

1185
01:26:09.260 --> 01:26:10.410
Jeezy: It's done.

1186
01:26:11.210 --> 01:26:12.180
Jeezy: Mitch McConnell?

1187
01:26:12.180 --> 01:26:15.930
Chairman of Chaos: Can we even call him a tortoise, bruh?

1188
01:26:15.930 --> 01:26:18.739
Jeezy: I don't know. I don't know what you can call him.

1189
01:26:19.260 --> 01:26:19.610
Jeezy: con…

1190
01:26:19.610 --> 01:26:21.359
Chairman of Chaos: The Walking Dead.

1191
01:26:21.360 --> 01:26:22.150
Jeezy: Greg.

1192
01:26:24.140 --> 01:26:30.260
Jeezy: If he ain't falling off, he rebootin'. If he ain't rebootin', he trying to close out meetings and hearings.

1193
01:26:30.260 --> 01:26:31.809
Chairman of Chaos: Short circuit.

1194
01:26:31.810 --> 01:26:34.879
Manny: That blue screen be firing off.

1195
01:26:34.880 --> 01:26:36.350
Chairman of Chaos: Boy.

1196
01:26:36.700 --> 01:26:42.629
Jeezy: Start smoking, the Rams, the heat fan, the heat sink in the computer ain't working no more.

1197
01:26:43.310 --> 01:26:58.880
Jeezy: So, yeah, meanwhile, Andy Barr won the Republican primary for the Senate seat being vacated by Mitch McConnell, and that race matters, because it symbolizes the final fading of the old McConnell-style Republican establishment.

1198
01:26:58.930 --> 01:27:08.090
Jeezy: In Kentucky. And Andy Barr is another Trump-backed, supporter. But that Trump-backed influence won again.

1199
01:27:08.440 --> 01:27:10.910
Jeezy: So, when we look at the overall theme of the night.

1200
01:27:11.120 --> 01:27:27.519
Jeezy: It became pretty obvious that the Republican Party is increasingly becoming, I believe, Trump's party completely, and the Democratic Party is increasingly becoming strategically disciplined around, electability. So, from that, if we zoom out…

1201
01:27:28.070 --> 01:27:47.709
Jeezy: I believe this is what the primaries told us, that for the Democrats, they are trying to avoid internal civil wars and focus on candidates that can, win suburban battlegrounds. But for the Republicans, it's still heavily driven by Trump loyalty and ideological purity tests. So the real question becomes.

1202
01:27:47.830 --> 01:27:48.809
Jeezy: this.

1203
01:27:49.430 --> 01:27:51.680
Jeezy: Which strategy works better?

1204
01:27:51.900 --> 01:27:54.710
Jeezy: in the national… midterm.

1205
01:27:55.910 --> 01:27:59.380
Chairman of Chaos: Before I let my brother, man, I'm saying.

1206
01:27:59.760 --> 01:28:08.649
Chairman of Chaos: We don't know. But I wanna go back real quick to that Kentucky Senate race, because it was quite interesting, because…

1207
01:28:09.330 --> 01:28:12.799
Chairman of Chaos: Andy Barr had Trump's verbal support

1208
01:28:13.690 --> 01:28:20.980
Chairman of Chaos: Daniel Cameron had soft-shoed, shoeshine, tap dance, and shucked and buckled.

1209
01:28:21.100 --> 01:28:22.939
Chairman of Chaos: All for Trump.

1210
01:28:23.240 --> 01:28:25.739
Jeezy: When he got on that camera, his feelings were a hurt one.

1211
01:28:26.040 --> 01:28:26.940
Chairman of Chaos: Super hurt.

1212
01:28:27.620 --> 01:28:31.710
Manny: His… His face ain't lurked no different.

1213
01:28:31.810 --> 01:28:32.850
Manny: then…

1214
01:28:33.030 --> 01:28:33.560
Chairman of Chaos: Team, Scott.

1215
01:28:33.560 --> 01:28:39.069
Manny: Tim Scott, when he got shut down, when Byron Donaldson…

1216
01:28:40.590 --> 01:28:47.259
Manny: Yeah. When, oh, pizza Hands… In North Carolina.

1217
01:28:48.190 --> 01:28:51.910
Manny: took his L, I'm not even gonna justify that man with the L.

1218
01:28:51.910 --> 01:28:54.130
Jeezy: The hate you have for that, man, bruh.

1219
01:28:54.230 --> 01:28:55.980
Manny: Bruh, it's up in the stock, man.

1220
01:28:57.300 --> 01:29:02.749
Chairman of Chaos: At first, I was like, pizza. I had to think… I had to think about it for a hot second, like…

1221
01:29:02.750 --> 01:29:04.840
Manny: Yeah, okay, okay.

1222
01:29:04.840 --> 01:29:05.410
Jeezy: Okay.

1223
01:29:05.770 --> 01:29:06.425
Chairman of Chaos: Oh!

1224
01:29:07.200 --> 01:29:13.210
Chairman of Chaos: But yeah, it, it's just, it, it, it's… it's… Funny to me.

1225
01:29:13.410 --> 01:29:17.439
Chairman of Chaos: That you go out your way to soft-shoot for this man.

1226
01:29:17.720 --> 01:29:22.700
Chairman of Chaos: And only when it's a benefit for him does he even acknowledge you.

1227
01:29:22.960 --> 01:29:23.480
Manny: Yep.

1228
01:29:23.850 --> 01:29:30.640
Chairman of Chaos: not support you. He's not shown support for any of those individuals that Manny just mentioned. Not a one of them.

1229
01:29:30.920 --> 01:29:32.079
Chairman of Chaos: But you shall…

1230
01:29:32.080 --> 01:29:33.260
Jeezy: Something in common.

1231
01:29:35.510 --> 01:29:37.299
Jeezy: The color of their skin, maybe?

1232
01:29:37.400 --> 01:29:40.980
Chairman of Chaos: Well, and not the content of the character.

1233
01:29:40.980 --> 01:29:41.500
Jeezy: Whoa!

1234
01:29:41.810 --> 01:29:47.269
Chairman of Chaos: But, but… As it benefits him, he'll be… he'll have you around.

1235
01:29:47.890 --> 01:29:48.460
Jeezy: Yeah.

1236
01:29:48.660 --> 01:29:52.789
Chairman of Chaos: But when you need that benefit, Oh, no, no!

1237
01:29:53.480 --> 01:29:54.350
Jeezy: Okay.

1238
01:29:54.350 --> 01:29:55.530
Chairman of Chaos: He ain' said it best.

1239
01:29:56.370 --> 01:29:58.410
Chairman of Chaos: You just a… in the coop.

1240
01:29:58.780 --> 01:29:59.550
Jeezy: Adjusting, brother.

1241
01:29:59.550 --> 01:30:04.629
Manny: Look, there is only one place in the Trump administration

1242
01:30:05.980 --> 01:30:09.649
Manny: for the Camerons, the Donaldsons, the Tim Scotts.

1243
01:30:09.810 --> 01:30:11.660
Manny: And that's Secretary of HUD.

1244
01:30:12.850 --> 01:30:13.660
Manny: Right.

1245
01:30:13.980 --> 01:30:16.259
Jeezy: That's all, that's all you gonna see. That's the only spot.

1246
01:30:16.570 --> 01:30:17.870
Manny: The elderly spot.

1247
01:30:17.870 --> 01:30:20.560
Jeezy: that spot, because that's a spot that Trump don't care about.

1248
01:30:21.220 --> 01:30:22.650
Jeezy: He could kill this.

1249
01:30:22.650 --> 01:30:24.550
Manny: He's like, huh? Urban, okay.

1250
01:30:25.020 --> 01:30:25.730
Chairman of Chaos: Dude.

1251
01:30:25.730 --> 01:30:26.130
Jeezy: So…

1252
01:30:26.130 --> 01:30:27.980
Manny: Get one of my people.

1253
01:30:27.980 --> 01:30:34.109
Jeezy: So I think for both parties, when we look at the primaries, after watching these primaries, I think that

1254
01:30:34.400 --> 01:30:39.690
Jeezy: Both have shown some strength, but I also think there's still potential warning signs.

1255
01:30:40.010 --> 01:30:47.159
Jeezy: Yes. And, you know, interested to see who actually looks more prepared for November,

1256
01:30:47.540 --> 01:30:51.030
Jeezy: It'll be interesting what happens over the next couple of months.

1257
01:30:51.480 --> 01:30:57.439
Jeezy: Because you… you… while the Democrats seem to be centered around, electability.

1258
01:30:58.080 --> 01:31:00.620
Jeezy: Manny has always said it. We've said it.

1259
01:31:00.770 --> 01:31:03.959
Jeezy: Democrats tend to find a way to screw it up.

1260
01:31:03.960 --> 01:31:05.750
Manny: Screw it up every time.

1261
01:31:05.750 --> 01:31:13.189
Jeezy: And while you have the alley… the political alley-oop with the Republicans having that… that infighting and runoffs.

1262
01:31:13.790 --> 01:31:18.549
Jeezy: you know, Will the Democrats be smart enough to take advantage of that?

1263
01:31:18.810 --> 01:31:22.269
Jeezy: Or will they find themselves in a political pickle again?

1264
01:31:23.790 --> 01:31:26.270
Jeezy: November will be here before we know it, and we'll find out.

1265
01:31:27.340 --> 01:31:31.240
Jeezy: So, anything else, brothers, as we move on from…

1266
01:31:32.470 --> 01:31:38.139
Jeezy: the primaries that took place in Pennsylvania, Georgia, and Kentucky.

1267
01:31:38.140 --> 01:31:42.929
Manny: The only thing I'll call out is that Trump has finally endorsed in the Texas primary.

1268
01:31:43.580 --> 01:31:45.320
Chairman of Chaos: Oh, yeah, I saw that.

1269
01:31:45.630 --> 01:31:54.510
Manny: We'll grab that on another topic, but the long-awaited endorsement in the Texas Senate primary has come out, and it…

1270
01:31:54.510 --> 01:31:54.859
Chairman of Chaos: the line.

1271
01:31:54.860 --> 01:31:55.930

1279
01:32:18.750 --> 01:32:28.560
Jeezy: Something I will give the credit to our great Chairman of KI, his brother Chuck, that, presented this segment to us, and with, with great honor.

1280

Jeezy: That was, wait, wait, before…

01:32:46.140 --> 01:32:51.669

1385

Jeezy: Look, I appreciate… I very well enjoyed that, brother.

1386
01:37:11.160 --> 01:37:16.890
Chairman of Chaos: Bruh, you knocked that out of the park, bruh. I can't even… out of… out of here, bruh.

1387
01:37:16.890 --> 01:37:18.470
Jeezy: I'm here.

1388
01:37:18.830 --> 01:37:21.309
Chairman of Chaos: Sheesh! Boom.

1389
01:37:21.310 --> 01:37:27.640
Jeezy: You may consider that to be a pickle. That is certainly not our pickle of the week, so we have reached…

1390
01:37:28.920 --> 01:37:29.990
Jeezy: Pickle.

1391
01:37:29.990 --> 01:37:34.580
Audio shared by Jeezy: I get us all into the biggest pickle any of us had ever seen.

1392
01:37:34.850 --> 01:37:37.080
Jeezy: Man, our pickle of the week.

1393
01:37:38.170 --> 01:37:40.180
Jeezy: It oughta come with some shame.

1394
01:37:42.280 --> 01:37:44.540
Chairman of Chaos: Shame, shame.

1395
01:37:46.830 --> 01:37:51.089
Jeezy: This pickle is sitting 90 miles off the coast of Florida, but politically.

1396
01:37:51.960 --> 01:37:58.270
Jeezy: This individual in this country is sitting in some high grease right now, and that is Raul… Castro.

1397
01:37:59.090 --> 01:38:00.320
Jeezy: The one from Cuba.

1398
01:38:00.720 --> 01:38:07.649
Jeezy: Yes, the last living symbol of the Cuban Revolution and the Castro dynasty.

1399
01:38:08.100 --> 01:38:09.360
Jeezy: This past week.

1400
01:38:09.820 --> 01:38:26.669
Jeezy: He was hit with a U.S. federal indictment connected to a 1996 shoot-down of two civilian planes flown by the anti-Castro group Brothers to the Rescue. And these charges include conspiracy to kill Americans, murder.

1401
01:38:27.020 --> 01:38:29.129
Jeezy: And destruction of an aircraft.

1402
01:38:29.490 --> 01:38:39.319
Jeezy: Now, the reason why he's in a pickle, in Cuba, really, and a low-key side pickle is gonna be trumping this as well. First of all, this man is 90-plus years old.

1403
01:38:40.020 --> 01:38:41.230
Jeezy: Being indicted.

1404
01:38:42.340 --> 01:38:56.160
Jeezy: Being indicted in your 90s is crazy. He probably don't even remember what he did. And first of all, this came from 1996, so Trump, as the gospel song said, if you had to reach way down, Jesus would pick you up.

1405
01:38:57.660 --> 01:39:00.820
Jeezy: He reads way down to find his charge.

1406
01:39:01.820 --> 01:39:05.129
Jeezy: But I think that the timing of this matters.

1407
01:39:05.440 --> 01:39:13.759
Jeezy: This comes while Trump is already dealing with Iran tensions, foreign policy pressure, and really trying to look strong internationally, so…

1408
01:39:14.150 --> 01:39:31.429
Jeezy: it's being framed as this is Trump chasing a regime change win with Cuba after the Iran situation got a little messy. So, you know, Castro kind of called himself in really a political crossfire, because this is, in my opinion, only trying to.

1409
01:39:31.520 --> 01:39:49.950
Jeezy: give Trump the win that he wants from a regime chain perspective, but Cuba finds himself in a weird spot, because economically they're struggling, they're dealing with blackouts and unrest, they're heavily dependent on outside allies, and now their former leaders being treated like an international fugitive. And…

1410
01:39:50.090 --> 01:40:01.669
Jeezy: how does Cuba respond to this? What do… I mean, where do they even go from this? Because now, realistically, nobody expects the U.S. Marshals to parachute into Cuba and drag this 93-year-old man out.

1411
01:40:02.160 --> 01:40:03.010
Jeezy: We hope.

1412
01:40:03.780 --> 01:40:07.610
Jeezy: If they give him the Nike Tech treatment that they gave Maduro, that's gonna be wild.

1413
01:40:07.610 --> 01:40:08.850
Chairman of Chaos: Bruh.

1414
01:40:10.200 --> 01:40:12.260
Jeezy: Man, probably sitting in a rocket chair.

1415
01:40:12.260 --> 01:40:13.570
Manny: Blanket on.

1416
01:40:13.570 --> 01:40:20.150
Jeezy: The heat is on, even though it's hot. We all know how old people get that. They blood thin, so they get cold.

1417
01:40:20.150 --> 01:40:25.600
Chairman of Chaos: Boy… boy, my grandma's room 2 steps away from hell.

1418
01:40:25.600 --> 01:40:26.500
Jeezy: babe.

1419
01:40:26.950 --> 01:40:29.100
Jeezy: Heat on in the summer is wild, but…

1420
01:40:29.300 --> 01:40:35.120
Jeezy: It's really not the point. The point of all this is symbolism.

1421
01:40:35.470 --> 01:40:45.220
Jeezy: Because for decades, the Castro name has represented survival, and Cuba has survived the war, they've survived assassination attempts, embargoes.

1422
01:40:45.360 --> 01:40:50.719
Jeezy: And really having to deal with multiple U.S. presidents, but now the regime just looks old.

1423
01:40:51.060 --> 01:40:59.260
Jeezy: vulnerable and isolated. So, politically, this indictment puts, you know, Castro in a brutal position. If he ignores it.

1424
01:40:59.750 --> 01:41:12.660
Jeezy: he looks weakened internationally. If Cuba overreacts, they risk escalating tensions, which I believe is what Trump is trying to do, escalating tensions with the United States at the exact moment when they can't… they can't even afford it.

1425
01:41:12.960 --> 01:41:14.840
Jeezy: So, to me.

1426
01:41:15.260 --> 01:41:25.670
Jeezy: That is why Castro is in a pickle, because imagine being 94 years old, retired, probably trying to enjoy whatever retirement looks like in, Cuba.

1427
01:41:26.000 --> 01:41:34.459
Jeezy: It's suddenly… your name is back in the headlines with murder indictments attached to it, so… Yeah, man. Raul…

1428
01:41:35.080 --> 01:41:43.199
Jeezy: I would say, don't worry about it, bro. But if they come in in the middle of the night, and cut out all the power, and come to snatch you up.

1429
01:41:43.200 --> 01:41:45.100
Manny: You about to be fresh.

1430
01:41:45.680 --> 01:41:47.709
Jeezy: Yeah, you're gonna get a nice tech suit.

1431
01:41:47.710 --> 01:41:50.059
Manny: You about to be fresh. You can get a nice.

1432
01:41:50.060 --> 01:41:55.940
Jeezy: TechSoup, bro. But, I definitely believe that what the mess that Trump has in Iran.

1433
01:41:56.580 --> 01:42:03.770
Jeezy: it's putting them back on the map, and unfortunately, or fortunately, they've put Castro in a pickle, and now Cuba

1434
01:42:04.040 --> 01:42:07.620
Jeezy: They're back on the board. So we'll see what happens.

1435
01:42:07.720 --> 01:42:14.429
Jeezy: Y'all leave that 94-year-old man alone. He probably don't even remember the 90s. Just leave him alone, bro.

1436
01:42:16.110 --> 01:42:19.579
Jeezy: Leave him alone. But that's my pickle of the weed, brothers. So…

1437
01:42:20.050 --> 01:42:20.500
Chairman of Chaos: Boy.

1438
01:42:20.830 --> 01:42:28.610
Jeezy: With that being said, we have reached the end of our episode, and of course, at the end of each episode, we like to give you guys

1439
01:42:28.770 --> 01:42:38.470
Jeezy: our, spotlights of the week. So, Manny, I'll go to you first. What is your spotlight, or spotlights that you're looking for in the, looking at the upcoming week?

1440
01:42:38.980 --> 01:42:40.920
Manny: Oh, man, oh man, oh man.

1441
01:42:41.480 --> 01:42:45.810
Manny: The boys knew as soon as this came out that I was gonna have something to say about it.

1442
01:42:48.730 --> 01:42:53.750
Manny: But frankly, it's not… not anything that I hadn't seen before, but what I want to do,

1443
01:42:53.930 --> 01:43:00.410
Manny: DNC Chair Ken Martin, I want you… I want you to come close, because I want to hold your hand while I say this.

1444
01:43:00.410 --> 01:43:02.180
Jeezy: Real, real tight.

1445
01:43:02.530 --> 01:43:03.140
Chairman of Chaos: Beautiful.

1446
01:43:03.140 --> 01:43:03.980
Manny: dumb.

1447
01:43:04.310 --> 01:43:06.320
Manny: Use real dumb.

1448
01:43:06.320 --> 01:43:07.850
Chairman of Chaos: And I'm about to break it.

1449
01:43:07.850 --> 01:43:14.110
Manny: down why you was dumb. -Oh. -Oh. So, on Thursday…

1450
01:43:15.200 --> 01:43:30.589
Manny: After… more than a year after ordering it, Ken Martin released the 192-page post-2024 autopsy that was allegedly written by Democratic strategist Paul Rivera.

1451
01:43:32.680 --> 01:43:39.619
Manny: Detailing what happened, what went right, what went wrong, In the 2024 election.

1452
01:43:41.870 --> 01:43:43.610
Manny: Y'all, this was a mess.

1453
01:43:43.870 --> 01:43:53.520
Manny: it was 192 pages of mess, and I want… I would actually like to know what y'all paid for it, because you could have given the boys here…

1454
01:43:53.970 --> 01:44:01.130
Manny: half, and we would have given you something better. Hell, you could have gone back and listened to Season 1, Episode 9,

1455
01:44:02.010 --> 01:44:04.970
Manny: And got more than what they gave to you.

1456
01:44:05.310 --> 01:44:08.780
Manny: Literally, on every page.

1457
01:44:08.960 --> 01:44:17.199
Manny: there… it's like, whoever turned this in, the DNC then acted like a teacher and graded it.

1458
01:44:17.200 --> 01:44:30.610
Manny: And basically discredited line after line, no stats on this, this conflicts with this data, you know, we don't think this is correct, and basically tries to discredit the entire report.

1459
01:44:31.100 --> 01:44:35.580
Manny: While… basically just reporting on public information.

1460
01:44:36.360 --> 01:44:40.300
Manny: So, first question is, Ken Pi… Ken… Ken Martin.

1461
01:44:40.890 --> 01:44:42.590
Manny: Is the public data wrong?

1462
01:44:43.890 --> 01:44:45.340
Manny: Or is y'all data wrong?

1463
01:44:47.000 --> 01:45:04.119
Manny: I just got questions. So, they… they went through, they detailed how the party spent over $8 billion, they… they centered around part of the reason why Kamala lost was the losing black male votes, and what we're not going to do.

1464
01:45:04.580 --> 01:45:10.129
Manny: is blame black male voters for the reason why Kamala lost. Did she lose some.

1465
01:45:10.130 --> 01:45:10.760
Chairman of Chaos: Great.

1466
01:45:10.760 --> 01:45:11.730
Manny: to Trump.

1467
01:45:12.810 --> 01:45:20.109
Manny: Yes, she did. But you can't tell… the numbers don't add up to make it that impactful. Not at all.

1468
01:45:20.380 --> 01:45:30.510
Manny: And as you continue to go through the report, there's some missing things in there, the biggest of which is you see virtually no mention.

1469
01:45:30.920 --> 01:45:34.509
Manny: of the issue with Israel and Gaza.

1470
01:45:35.290 --> 01:45:40.279
Manny: It's if that didn't happen, even though we know it was a major mover.

1471
01:45:40.380 --> 01:45:43.850
Manny: And what… and the states that were needed.

1472
01:45:44.730 --> 01:45:51.440
Manny: for Kamala to win those elections. So, first off, let's go ahead and… and stop,

1473
01:45:51.630 --> 01:46:02.420
Manny: scapegoating black males in this one. But Ken Martin came out and said, I could not in good faith put the DNC stamp of approval on the report that was produced.

1474
01:46:02.740 --> 01:46:04.449
Manny: Why? Because it was right?

1475
01:46:05.050 --> 01:46:11.459
Manny: Or… or what? Because this entire thing doesn't make sense. That you waited a year.

1476
01:46:12.150 --> 01:46:15.049
Manny: And, geez, I'm gonna reach for my hat again.

1477
01:46:15.210 --> 01:46:15.830
Jeezy: -Oh.

1478
01:46:15.830 --> 01:46:16.420
Chairman of Chaos: -Oh.

1479
01:46:17.030 --> 01:46:18.700
Jeezy: Hold on, brother. Hold on, brother.

1480
01:46:18.700 --> 01:46:21.370
Manny: I usually don't do these in spotlights.

1481
01:46:21.370 --> 01:46:22.679
Jeezy: I know, I'm…

1482
01:46:22.680 --> 01:46:23.340
Manny: I, I…

1483
01:46:23.670 --> 01:46:24.050
Jeezy: Let's go!

1484
01:46:24.050 --> 01:46:25.630
Manny: But I think it's necessary here.

1485
01:46:28.860 --> 01:46:29.790
Jeezy: Alright.

1486
01:46:29.850 --> 01:46:33.909
Manny: I'm at the point, after reading this report, I don't think this is the real report.

1487
01:46:34.260 --> 01:46:46.080
Manny: I think after all the pressure that Ken Martin got to release this, he grabbed a couple interns and said, hey, let's redo this report, let's rush it and get it out.

1488
01:46:46.080 --> 01:46:46.620
Chairman of Chaos: missing.

1489
01:46:46.620 --> 01:46:59.759
Manny: so much context. It's… it's so vague and so blatant for somebody who allegedly had all this access to strategists, consultants, internal and external data.

1490
01:46:59.880 --> 01:47:09.850
Manny: I don't think this is the real report. And if it is the real report, then Democrats, you guys are even more incompetent in running a national organization than I thought.

1491
01:47:09.970 --> 01:47:15.149
Manny: And you're gonna have problems in the midterms, and even bigger problems in 2028.

1492
01:47:15.520 --> 01:47:16.420
Manny: So…

1493
01:47:16.420 --> 01:47:17.289
Jeezy: Lame on.

1494
01:47:17.290 --> 01:47:35.480
Manny: The biggest piece in here, and I alluded to this earlier in the podcast, is they call out Josh Stein, the governor of North Carolina, saying in this report that he is the model of how other Democrats should run across the nation, and look how big he won.

1495
01:47:35.910 --> 01:47:52.069
Manny: what I need for everyone to stop doing, especially in the state of North Carolina, especially outside the state of North Carolina. You cannot look at North Carolina as a model in how to run any other state. How candidates to run? Because first off.

1496
01:47:52.270 --> 01:47:55.320
Manny: Josh Stein was running against a dumbass.

1497
01:47:57.110 --> 01:47:58.809
Manny: Oh, pizza Hands.

1498
01:47:59.170 --> 01:48:04.210
Manny: Oh, oh, oh, Nazi porn guy, Mark Robinson.

1499
01:48:04.660 --> 01:48:08.289
Manny: Now, this is not to fault him and what he enjoys to watch.

1500
01:48:08.800 --> 01:48:13.960
Manny: But you can't… can't be out here talking crazy like this with a past like that.

1501
01:48:14.260 --> 01:48:32.960
Manny: And expect things to go kosher. And it's less on the… the porn thing, I think, is really just a funny keto. It's the Nazi comments. It's how you talk about the electorate. It's how you talk about people. So all Josh Stein really had to do in his election was not mess up.

1502
01:48:33.110 --> 01:48:38.459
Manny: He had to go, shake hands, kiss babies. He didn't have to do anything.

1503
01:48:38.840 --> 01:48:39.510
Jeezy: Yeah.

1504
01:48:39.720 --> 01:48:43.559
Manny: That is not a model you can replicate.

1505
01:48:44.470 --> 01:48:49.429
Manny: You can't replicate the person you're running against not being good.

1506
01:48:50.320 --> 01:48:57.859
Manny: You can't replicate that. So to look at North Carolina, and then to say down ballot, are down ballots crazy? Are…

1507
01:48:58.240 --> 01:49:06.090
Manny: every year. So you can't… again, like I said earlier, when we were talking about Pennsylvania, if you are going to

1508
01:49:06.210 --> 01:49:09.999
Manny: Focus. Focus on your own… on your own grass.

1509
01:49:10.700 --> 01:49:20.369
Manny: Run to the electorate that you're trying to run to. Don't look at New York and seeing what's happening in New York City and say, hey, we can replicate that in Texas. You can't.

1510
01:49:20.820 --> 01:49:25.000
Manny: Oh, we see this happening in California, we can do this in Nebraska. You can't.

1511
01:49:25.330 --> 01:49:27.399
Manny: So stop thinking like that.

1512
01:49:27.500 --> 01:49:29.299
Manny: And that's on both sides.

1513
01:49:29.340 --> 01:49:36.150
Manny: It's on both sides. Oh, they're running super conservative, you know, down in Kansas. We're gonna do that here in California.

1514
01:49:36.170 --> 01:49:49.610
Manny: It's not gonna work. It's not going to work. Talk to your electorate, understand their issues, stop being lazy with your campaigns, and run to the needs of your people

1515
01:49:49.640 --> 01:49:54.119
Manny: in your state, and in your districts. And that's on both sides.

1516
01:49:54.440 --> 01:49:55.450
Manny: But Ken?

1517
01:49:56.310 --> 01:49:58.220
Manny: I'll end this by saying this.

1518
01:49:58.360 --> 01:50:02.199
Manny: If you need some help, The doors of the pod.

1519
01:50:02.350 --> 01:50:04.089
Manny: Are open for hire.

1520
01:50:05.550 --> 01:50:09.720
Manny: And as long as all… as long as all the dollars make all the sense.

1521
01:50:10.510 --> 01:50:11.790
Manny: We'll be happy to help.

1522
01:50:12.590 --> 01:50:14.730
Jeezy: Because if it don't make dollars, it don't make sense.

1523
01:50:14.730 --> 01:50:16.149
Manny: Definitely don't make sense.

1524
01:50:16.470 --> 01:50:27.459
Manny: But this was… this… the entire report was ridiculous. Why release it if you're gonna discredit it? It makes you look messy, it makes you even look like a bigger idiot that you paid to have this done.

1525
01:50:29.450 --> 01:50:31.300
Manny: And with all that being said…

1526
01:50:32.320 --> 01:50:40.639
Manny: My last message… now, this is going to come out… this episode's gonna come out after this game has been played, but I need to talk to somebody else here while I have the mic.

1527
01:50:42.120 --> 01:50:42.570
Manny: Colorado.

1528
01:50:42.570 --> 01:50:43.449
Jeezy: Oh, brother, Creek.

1529
01:50:44.670 --> 01:50:46.570
Manny: Y'all is down 2-0.

1530
01:50:48.290 --> 01:50:50.490
Manny: Vegas is too good of a team.

1531
01:50:51.140 --> 01:50:52.710
Manny: To go down 3-0.

1532
01:50:53.620 --> 01:50:56.620
Manny: Boy, y'all better not mess this up tonight.

1533
01:50:58.200 --> 01:51:00.570
Manny: Don't y'all mess this up tonight.

1534
01:51:02.000 --> 01:51:06.920
Manny: You're not gonna be able to put this roster again… back together again next year.

1535
01:51:08.160 --> 01:51:09.850
Manny: Y'all figure it out.

1536
01:51:10.630 --> 01:51:12.150
Manny: But y'all better win.

1537
01:51:13.940 --> 01:51:14.520
Manny: And with that.

1538
01:51:14.520 --> 01:51:16.429
Chairman of Chaos: I just wanna… I just wanna say…

1539
01:51:16.430 --> 01:51:17.450
Jeezy: yield my time.

1540
01:51:17.940 --> 01:51:21.350
Chairman of Chaos: my time to the jam. I just want to say…

1541
01:51:21.470 --> 01:51:29.329
Chairman of Chaos: Listeners, since that report dropped, Manny, he went through it, And when he got finished.

1542
01:51:29.590 --> 01:51:33.119
Chairman of Chaos: He set the group chat on fire. He's waiting.

1543
01:51:33.550 --> 01:51:34.110
Manny: Bruh.

1544
01:51:34.430 --> 01:51:38.340
Chairman of Chaos: Waiting. Seething.

1545
01:51:38.340 --> 01:51:41.999
Jeezy: to air his grievances to the masses.

1546
01:51:42.000 --> 01:51:50.960
Manny: It goes back to, like, that comment that Obama says, like, after you get in some of these rooms with these people that are really high up there, you realize, oh, you're just a normal…

1547
01:51:51.390 --> 01:51:59.990
Manny: This is not the actions of a leader who knows what they're doing, or appears to know what he is doing.

1548
01:52:00.690 --> 01:52:06.219
Manny: You should've… you basically did the same thing Donald Trump did in Iran.

1549
01:52:06.340 --> 01:52:12.240
Manny: talked this big game, went over there, got shown up in Iran, and now the… the aura…

1550
01:52:12.450 --> 01:52:16.379
Manny: Actually, better example, D3 the Mighty Ducks.

1551
01:52:16.380 --> 01:52:17.029
Jeezy: Here we go.

1552
01:52:17.030 --> 01:52:18.890
Chairman of Chaos: Oh, Lord, here we go.

1553
01:52:19.320 --> 01:52:39.160
Manny: When the coach told them, hey, don't you mess around with that varsity team, you'll keep the element of surprise, you've now dropped this. So either now, you literally created another report, or you guys are as incompetent as we think you are, and now you have an emboldened party leadership. We look party to party leadership.

1554
01:52:39.470 --> 01:52:44.809
Manny: You've taken all the mystique away that, oh, you really know what you're doing. No.

1555
01:52:45.380 --> 01:52:49.289
Manny: that this can't… I hope this wasn't the real report.

1556
01:52:51.160 --> 01:52:53.710
Manny: Okay, I'm done for real now. I yield my time.

1557
01:52:53.710 --> 01:52:56.189
Jeezy: Look, we don't know. Look, time will tell.

1558
01:52:56.630 --> 01:52:57.330
Manny: Right.

1559
01:52:58.290 --> 01:52:59.090
Jeezy: Brother Chuck.

1560
01:52:59.650 --> 01:53:02.610
Chairman of Chaos: Yes, sir, yes, sir. So, initially.

1561
01:53:03.550 --> 01:53:09.330
Chairman of Chaos: My spotlight was gonna be on the case between… the billionaire…

1562
01:53:09.530 --> 01:53:15.349
Chairman of Chaos: Versus the almost billionaire fighting of Elon Musk and Sam Altman.

1563
01:53:15.880 --> 01:53:18.689
Manny: That's another beef that is… it is up, and it is.

1564
01:53:18.690 --> 01:53:26.500
Chairman of Chaos: Insta, yes. And interestingly enough, that beef is because… You told me no.

1565
01:53:27.070 --> 01:53:30.039
Chairman of Chaos: And then went another direction, and now…

1566
01:53:30.670 --> 01:53:33.669
Chairman of Chaos: I don't like the direction you're going, because you're making money.

1567
01:53:34.200 --> 01:53:37.439
Chairman of Chaos: And I want some of your money. But anyway…

1568
01:53:38.050 --> 01:53:45.290
Chairman of Chaos: But then, I came across another spotlight, and pre-pot, I told the boys I had a second spotlight, and I…

1569
01:53:45.400 --> 01:53:53.269
Chairman of Chaos: for whatever reason, it was blanking my mind, and then the good Lord, like, a dove descending from the heavens above.

1570
01:53:53.770 --> 01:53:56.210
Chairman of Chaos: Placed it back on my remembrance.

1571
01:53:56.430 --> 01:54:01.080
Chairman of Chaos: And as the table says, I do this in the remembrance of me.

1572
01:54:01.630 --> 01:54:04.859
Chairman of Chaos: And… It came back to me.

1573
01:54:05.290 --> 01:54:10.840
Chairman of Chaos: how… Georgia House Bill… 369.

1574
01:54:11.910 --> 01:54:15.410
Chairman of Chaos: And for those who are not in Georgia, you have no idea what this is.

1575
01:54:15.690 --> 01:54:22.730
Chairman of Chaos: But this is a new law that was signed into effect by Governor Brian Kemp.

1576
01:54:22.940 --> 01:54:30.059
Chairman of Chaos: that mandates a shift from partisan to nonpartisan elections. And you would think

1577
01:54:30.780 --> 01:54:33.319
Chairman of Chaos: The Chairman of Chaos would be in support of this.

1578
01:54:33.590 --> 01:54:35.350
Chairman of Chaos: And generally, I would.

1579
01:54:35.920 --> 01:54:41.710
Chairman of Chaos: Except… This only applies to 5 counties.

1580
01:54:42.130 --> 01:54:48.419
Chairman of Chaos: in the state of Georgia… What? Out of the 159 counties in the state of Georgia.

1581
01:54:50.250 --> 01:54:56.199
Chairman of Chaos: And I'm gonna give you a moment to guess what five counties… This applies to…

1582
01:54:56.200 --> 01:54:58.680
Manny: Was it all… is it all the major metros?

1583
01:54:59.050 --> 01:55:07.579
Chairman of Chaos: All 5 counties, that is the Atlanta metro area, Fulton, DeKalb, Gwinnett, Cobb, and Clayton County.

1584
01:55:08.620 --> 01:55:18.579
Chairman of Chaos: For those who don't know, These are the most… diverse. The most… Populace of Black

1585
01:55:18.960 --> 01:55:20.980
Chairman of Chaos: Constituents in the state.

1586
01:55:21.670 --> 01:55:22.390
Chairman of Chaos: Yeah.

1587
01:55:23.490 --> 01:55:26.059
Chairman of Chaos: And I just gave a challenge last week.

1588
01:55:27.340 --> 01:55:30.050
Chairman of Chaos: In regards to this type of stuff.

1589
01:55:31.030 --> 01:55:42.189
Chairman of Chaos: Brian Kemp said that he was gonna hold off and not, redraw the maps right before the primary, and they would focus at a later date on 2028.

1590
01:55:42.530 --> 01:55:44.199
Chairman of Chaos: And this is part of that mess.

1591
01:55:44.940 --> 01:55:54.139
Chairman of Chaos: So, what this does is it requires… that… There's no party affiliation.

1592
01:55:54.300 --> 01:56:01.630
Chairman of Chaos: for… Some key… Seats, or, races.

1593
01:56:01.940 --> 01:56:06.240
Chairman of Chaos: District Attorney, Solicitor General, tax commissioner.

1594
01:56:06.530 --> 01:56:10.669
Chairman of Chaos: Clerk of Superior Court, and then certain County Commissioner seats.

1595
01:56:11.280 --> 01:56:16.989
Chairman of Chaos: Now, it does not, there are some exempt offices, like County Sheriff.

1596
01:56:17.580 --> 01:56:30.969
Chairman of Chaos: The DeKalb County Commission and the DeKalb County CEO, those are exempt and, have still allowed for their specific party affiliation.

1597
01:56:31.490 --> 01:56:36.169
Chairman of Chaos: But the problem with this is… Why is this not statewide?

1598
01:56:36.450 --> 01:56:41.320
Chairman of Chaos: And only targeted for those 5 metro counties.

1599
01:56:43.840 --> 01:56:48.750
Chairman of Chaos: The quiet part is to say it out loud when you just read the five counties that it applies to.

1600
01:56:49.520 --> 01:56:52.719
Chairman of Chaos: Now, of course, there are plenty of…

1601
01:56:53.180 --> 01:56:57.740
Chairman of Chaos: Lawsuits and challenges are already in motion toward this.

1602
01:56:59.110 --> 01:57:05.260
Chairman of Chaos: But I, I further reiterate My challenge, because these positions, currently.

1603
01:57:05.470 --> 01:57:08.340
Chairman of Chaos: are held primarily by Black women.

1604
01:57:10.240 --> 01:57:11.440
Chairman of Chaos: Don't forget!

1605
01:57:11.680 --> 01:57:12.880
Chairman of Chaos: Bonnie Willis.

1606
01:57:13.390 --> 01:57:19.539
Chairman of Chaos: the District Attorney for Fulton County, Who recently won re-election.

1607
01:57:20.820 --> 01:57:22.540
Chairman of Chaos: was the one who challenged Trump.

1608
01:57:22.940 --> 01:57:27.739
Chairman of Chaos: and went up and brought charges against Trump for his phone call.

1609
01:57:27.960 --> 01:57:33.099
Chairman of Chaos: to Brad Raffensperger about those votes in 2020.

1610
01:57:35.190 --> 01:57:36.200
Chairman of Chaos: Now.

1611
01:57:36.690 --> 01:57:41.479
Chairman of Chaos: With removing these labels, this is a form of voter suppression.

1612
01:57:42.620 --> 01:57:51.340
Chairman of Chaos: Because… Sadly as it is, Some people don't… Know people's names.

1613
01:57:51.830 --> 01:57:54.050
Chairman of Chaos: They know party affiliation.

1614
01:57:54.930 --> 01:58:00.130
Chairman of Chaos: So, to my challenge, mobilize… inform and engage.

1615
01:58:02.150 --> 01:58:07.390
Chairman of Chaos: That's what you need to do, because they're playing and then putting rules in place.

1616
01:58:08.140 --> 01:58:14.239
Chairman of Chaos: to take away The chance for you to have someone in front of you

1617
01:58:14.400 --> 01:58:16.720
Chairman of Chaos: That is not looking to destroy you.

1618
01:58:17.840 --> 01:58:20.089
Chairman of Chaos: As much as we would like for

1619
01:58:20.200 --> 01:58:29.000
Chairman of Chaos: Positions of a district attorney, or… A judge, or… Shoot.

1620
01:58:29.500 --> 01:58:31.029
Chairman of Chaos: The clerk of court.

1621
01:58:32.010 --> 01:58:33.810
Chairman of Chaos: You want them to be impartial.

1622
01:58:34.050 --> 01:58:35.969
Chairman of Chaos: You want them to be nonpartisan.

1623
01:58:36.620 --> 01:58:38.070
Chairman of Chaos: But that's not reality.

1624
01:58:39.010 --> 01:58:45.520
Chairman of Chaos: And many of these people come with their own agendas, come with their own… Ewes…

1625
01:58:45.880 --> 01:58:52.620
Chairman of Chaos: And you want to make sure that the people that are in place are not… In that same fashion.

1626
01:58:53.800 --> 01:58:58.520
Chairman of Chaos: So… This is to everyone.

1627
01:58:59.190 --> 01:59:01.960
Chairman of Chaos: Get yourself informed, get out, vote.

1628
01:59:02.610 --> 01:59:03.799
Chairman of Chaos: Make an impact.

1629
01:59:04.550 --> 01:59:07.959
Chairman of Chaos: But before I close, I do want to give…

1630
01:59:08.120 --> 01:59:11.280
Chairman of Chaos: A bit of a rebuff and reprieve to…

1631
01:59:12.220 --> 01:59:16.690
Chairman of Chaos: the citizens of Georgia, and I didn't do this when we were talking about the primaries.

1632
01:59:16.870 --> 01:59:18.930
Chairman of Chaos: But I am blown away.

1633
01:59:19.300 --> 01:59:21.549
Chairman of Chaos: Excuse me, that we did not elect

1634
01:59:22.420 --> 01:59:26.699
Chairman of Chaos: Or did not unseat the incumbents in the Georgia Supreme Court.

1635
01:59:27.220 --> 01:59:29.219
Chairman of Chaos: Well, and the Court of Appeals.

1636
01:59:29.610 --> 01:59:32.630
Chairman of Chaos: The two young ladies who were running.

1637
01:59:33.330 --> 01:59:40.540
Chairman of Chaos: failed at, winning. And these… these positions are technically nonpartisan.

1638
01:59:41.690 --> 01:59:46.289
Chairman of Chaos: But the backing of these individuals and the money that is…

1639
01:59:46.670 --> 01:59:52.539
Chairman of Chaos: Behind these individuals, and the way they voted, Shows you their affiliation.

1640
01:59:52.780 --> 02:00:02.080
Chairman of Chaos: So, yeah. We have general election coming up soon, because it'll be here before we know it. The summer's here already.

1641
02:00:03.840 --> 02:00:07.870
Chairman of Chaos: It's already here. So, November will be here before we know it.

1642
02:00:08.370 --> 02:00:12.189
Chairman of Chaos: Get out there, get informed, and know what's going on in your community.

1643
02:00:13.970 --> 02:00:19.090
Jeezy: Alright, brother. Well, I'll, wrap it up with my spotlight of the week.

1644
02:00:19.270 --> 02:00:28.360
Jeezy: My spotlight isn't about any… any war or any election map or anything, it's more something personal.

1645
02:00:28.560 --> 02:00:38.210
Jeezy: That I want to educate our listeners on. This week, bobby, RFK Jr, quietly.

1646
02:00:38.550 --> 02:00:42.199
Jeezy: remove the top leadership in the U.S.

1647
02:00:43.180 --> 02:00:49.779
Jeezy: Preventive Services Task Force. And this task force is a panel that helps decide what

1648
02:00:49.980 --> 02:00:53.159
Jeezy: preventative care Americans get for free.

1649
02:00:53.500 --> 02:01:01.130
Jeezy: Through insurance. So, we're talking mammograms, colonoscopies, depression screenings.

1650
02:01:01.420 --> 02:01:06.969
Jeezy: Heart disease prevention, and cervical cancer screening, to name a few, but…

1651
02:01:07.280 --> 02:01:10.879
Jeezy: The routine stuff that catches problems before they become deadly.

1652
02:01:11.190 --> 02:01:20.149
Jeezy: So, I know for most Americans, they probably have never heard of the Preventative Service Task Force, but this panel has

1653
02:01:20.180 --> 02:01:32.320
Jeezy: enormous power. Under the Affordable Care Act, if this task force recommends a screening or a preventative treatment, insurance companies

1654
02:01:32.480 --> 02:01:36.129
Jeezy: I generally have to cover it at no additional cost.

1655
02:01:36.210 --> 02:01:49.249
Jeezy: To the patients. So, when RFK Jr. fires the chair and the vice chair of this panel in the middle of an overhaul that he's doing, healthcare experts start asking a very uncomfortable question.

1656
02:01:49.300 --> 02:01:58.659
Jeezy: Is science leading, healthcare policy, or is politics taking the wheel? And that's why this decision and what Bobby is doing matters.

1657
02:01:59.010 --> 02:02:06.520
Jeezy: We know that since he's walked in, as the Health Secretary, it has not been normal, to say the least.

1658
02:02:06.700 --> 02:02:20.389
Jeezy: He's already came in already viewed as controversial, with a long history of skepticism about vaccines, and public health institutions, so now every move that he makes, gets viewed through that, that lens, so…

1659
02:02:20.590 --> 02:02:25.300
Jeezy: I want Americans to know That's very important, because…

1660
02:02:25.420 --> 02:02:43.419
Jeezy: the best thing you can do for some of these issues, health issues, is the preventative, and having the screenings necessary to detect some of these things very early, before they become deadly, and dangerous. So, when you have someone who is the health secretary.

1661
02:02:43.480 --> 02:02:52.539
Jeezy: that is removing that in the middle of an overhaul, which I think the panel has half of his seats vacant at the moment because of the overhaul he's doing.

1662
02:02:53.260 --> 02:03:12.009
Jeezy: who do Americans trust anymore? Because if your health secretary doesn't see these things as necessary, he's removing those who are making sure that these things are covered at no additional cost to the American people to be preventative of some of these deadly and dangerous diseases. Who do you trust?

1663
02:03:12.460 --> 02:03:16.560
Jeezy: where do you go? And when you see these things happening.

1664
02:03:16.690 --> 02:03:28.460
Jeezy: And you start losing, which I believe is already starting to happen, that you're seeing Americans starting to lose trust in multiple institutions. Eventually, people stop believing anybody.

1665
02:03:28.810 --> 02:03:35.480
Jeezy: And when we get in that position, that's when things get… I mean, just dangerous.

1666
02:03:35.870 --> 02:03:43.840
Jeezy: So, my spotlight isn't really about just one healthcare panel, it's about whether Americans still believe And…

1667
02:03:43.980 --> 02:03:50.560
Jeezy: The experts, and that expertise matters, or whether every institution is now just

1668
02:03:50.880 --> 02:04:02.489
Jeezy: what I feel like is happening now in our landscape, a political battleground. This is something we never had to think of before, and I think that should be the alarm. We didn't even know this task force existed.

1669
02:04:03.160 --> 02:04:20.150
Jeezy: But think of the enormous work that has been done by this task force when it comes to colonoscopies, mammograms, cervical cancer screening, a number of things. There's a force that was watching and working on the American people's behalf for their health.

1670
02:04:20.560 --> 02:04:28.850
Jeezy: And now that is getting gutted and played around with by somebody who is… Bobby.

1671
02:04:29.060 --> 02:04:30.200
Manny: So…

1672
02:04:30.820 --> 02:04:32.620
Jeezy: You know, that's my spotlight of the week.

1673
02:04:32.870 --> 02:04:36.949
Jeezy: and… Inform yourself, man. Educate yourself.

1674
02:04:37.790 --> 02:04:53.820
Jeezy: Figure out why these things exist, and why they matter, and challenge these things when you go to that voter box, to that ballot box, and realize who you're putting in those positions, and what they support, and what measures they are cutting or gutting.

1675
02:04:53.910 --> 02:04:59.569
Jeezy: That has potentially benefited you and your family for years that you didn't even know

1676
02:04:59.690 --> 02:05:04.070
Jeezy: That somebody thought it was a good idea to have that task force or these things in place.

1677
02:05:04.170 --> 02:05:08.530
Jeezy: to better the American people, not put them in more dangerous positions.

1678
02:05:08.960 --> 02:05:10.300
Chairman of Chaos: Bruh.

1679
02:05:10.570 --> 02:05:12.090
Chairman of Chaos: Preventative care.

1680
02:05:12.540 --> 02:05:14.270
Chairman of Chaos: Preventative care.

1681
02:05:14.270 --> 02:05:18.000
Jeezy: Bruh, the word is for itself.

1682
02:05:18.000 --> 02:05:24.179
Chairman of Chaos: for itself. Like, you're taking the steps to make sure that you are good, and they want to…

1683
02:05:24.320 --> 02:05:33.869
Chairman of Chaos: crashed to task force? What I'm sick and tired of is these fools that 70-plus making decisions for Americans who have…

1684
02:05:33.870 --> 02:05:34.940
Manny: had to live with.

1685
02:05:36.130 --> 02:05:36.830
Chairman of Chaos: bet.

1686
02:05:37.670 --> 02:05:38.580
Chairman of Chaos: Matt.

1687
02:05:38.950 --> 02:05:40.419
Chairman of Chaos: That's crazy, bruh.

1688
02:05:40.710 --> 02:05:44.380
Jeezy: And the last part I want to say is not politically related, but…

1689
02:05:44.570 --> 02:05:49.310
Jeezy: I certainly can't, close this episode without mentioning

1690
02:05:49.420 --> 02:06:01.940
Jeezy: But shout out to, our lovely university, East Carolina University, the baseball team who, just, finished their championship game, and they are back-to-back champions.

1691
02:06:01.940 --> 02:06:03.990
Chairman of Chaos: Yay! The University.

1692
02:06:03.990 --> 02:06:10.390
Jeezy: Texas at San Antonio, 1-0. So, shout out to Coach Cliff.

1693

Chairman of Chaos: Alright, Pirate Baseball.

1694
02:06:12.000 --> 02:06:26.009
Jeezy: They battled this year, it was tough, they didn't have the roster they've had in years past. Some young guys, and they came into the tournament already losing the first game and having to come out of the loser's bracket, but…

1695
02:06:26.280 --> 02:06:27.010
Jeezy: They beat him.

1696
02:06:27.010 --> 02:06:29.019
Chairman of Chaos: Hey, that's what's up, that's what's up.

1699
02:06:38.400 --> 02:06:40.819

Chairman of Chaos: We was ready, we was ready for Omaha. We was ready.

02:06:46.240 --> 02:06:47.350
Chairman of Chaos: Right there.

1705
02:06:47.360 --> 02:06:55.990
Jeezy: But, shout out to Coach Cliff, a former player at ACU, so it's even good just to see that he's here, and I don't know how we've kept him for so long.

1706
02:06:56.370 --> 02:06:59.230
Jeezy: But I'm glad that he's still here.

Manny: Whoa, whoa, pause. Can I see it at the bar?

1726
02:07:55.450 --> 02:07:59.310
Jeezy: That's why we ain't dancing, we ain't doing… Not on the floor.

1743
02:09:10.680 --> 02:09:17.070
Jeezy: the president of North Carolina Association of Educators joined us on the pod, and we.

1744
02:09:17.070 --> 02:09:17.930
Chairman of Chaos: We're able to answer.

1745
02:09:17.930 --> 02:09:34.820
Jeezy: and dive into some of the things she does. As you know, the NCAAE is the state's largest professional organization representing teachers, school staff, and public education advocates. And she came, and as they say, in a good old church, she came and she blessed our soul.

1746
02:09:35.020 --> 02:09:36.950
Chairman of Chaos: Yes, sir.

1747
02:09:36.950 --> 02:09:37.940
Jeezy: power.
