Today on the show we ran back our interview with Rush Limbaugh, which was definitely a debate conversation but much needed.

Was when the industry Got quiet Meaning you know The record industry The music industry Got quiet Stayed off Instagram Stayed off social media

No promoting Just doing no work Just supporting Well that's part of it That's part of it But with media You explain what's going on So it's a little different

So a lot of the other media As in the other social media that gives people the information, they're still on right now to continue to give people information. That's why we're still on. Right. So we're going to be able to give you guys resources and a call to action and interviews and things like that

that will help you out as far as if you want to take action and figure out what are some steps that you can take to actually help protest police violence against the black community. Everybody can take this moment, this day to disconnect also. And, you know, let's just make sure that we move forward with positive, actionable steps. Absolutely. I really can't tell if I really can't tell if life is Infinity War Or Endgame right now

I don't know exactly which Avengers movie we're in It's one of the two though I don't know if this is After the snapping we trying to bring everybody back Everybody's back and we trying to win the war I'm not sure yet New York was one of those places yesterday that they had A curfew, 11pm curfew

Trying to get people off the streets Today the curfew is 8pm Yeah today is curfew, trying to get people off the streets. Today, the curfew is 8 p.m. Yeah, today is 8. That didn't seem like it worked last night. I was watching the news, and it seemed like more people were out last night after 11 p.m. They're trying to get people off the street, trying to get people to stop rioting and looting. I don't know if that worked.

I woke up this morning, and I— They're trying to get everybody to quarantine again. They're trying to get everybody to quarantine again? That's basically what you're saying? They're trying to get everybody to quarantine again. You're trying to get everybody to quarantine again? That's basically what you're saying? You're trying to get everybody to go back in quarantine. Office streets between 11 p.m. and 5 a.m. And now today, like he said, it's going to be 8 p.m. to 5 a.m. I was walking around Brooklyn yesterday. Not after 11 p.m., though.

I'll tell you that much. So, very active out in Brooklyn. A lot of police cars out here. They were actually in Bed-Stuy yesterday. Not after 11 p.m., though. I'll tell you that much. So, very active out in Brooklyn. A lot of police cars out here. They were actually in Bed-Stuy yesterday. That's where I live. What happened to coronavirus? I don't know. It's just so weird how the media works.

Like, I'm talking about every day they were showing us how many cases were going on in the world, how many cases was in America, how many people were dying around the world, how many people were dying around America, and it's just like disappeared. Right. And it's so weird because they kept telling us to social distance and stay out of large crowds and then we went right into, you know, the protesting of police killings,

right, of black people and it's nothing but large crowds but you hear very minimum conversation about coronavirus. Yeah. Very strange. Media is something else. Well, they said the cases did spike in Washington, D.C.

I was reading something the other day. They said in Italy that coronavirus has weakened quite a bit since it first started. You know, Italy had the third most cases. Right. We got a lot to talk about. We got front page news next. I'm sure you're going to be filling people up, filling people in on what's going on with these looting riots. And hopefully we even closer to these other three officers being charged.

So we'll talk about all that next. Don't move. It's the Breakfast Club. Good morning. Morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha Guy. We are the Breakfast Club. Let's get to some front page news. Where we starting, Yee? Well, Donald Trump, he made sure that he made an appearance yesterday, and there were peaceful protesters just outside the White House gates. They were dispersed with tear gas, flash grenades, and rubber bullets so that Trump could go and visit a nearby church.

Here is what Donald Trump had to say where he talks about George Floyd and he wants to assure that there will be justice. My administration is fully committed that for George and his family, justice will be served. He will not have died in vain, but we cannot allow the righteous cries and peaceful protesters to be drowned out by an angry mob. The biggest victims of the rioting are peace-loving citizens in our poorest communities, and as their president, I will fight to keep them safe. I am your president of law and order and an ally of all peaceful protesters. Now, according to reports, he was very upset about coverage that depicted him holed up in an underground bunker.

They said he was very nervous because of protesters that were outside on Friday evening. He wasn't seen on Sunday. He spent most of Monday behind closed doors. So we wanted to make sure he got that photo op outside of the White House gates. And that was important. That's why those peaceful protesters were violently moved. Yeah, I peeped that whole play. That was all ego.

He created that whole spectacle just because people said he was shook in the house on Friday. That is absolutely right. He just wanted to show he was outside. He wasn't scared. He wasn't scared. That's what he was trying to show. Now, he also did say that he does want to make sure that the military is involved as far as restoring peace and order. Here's what he said.

I am mobilizing all available federal resources, civilian and military, to stop the rioting and looting, to end the destruction and arson, and to protect the rights of law-abiding Americans, including your Second Amendment rights. Today, I have strongly recommended to every governor to deploy the National Guard in sufficient numbers that we dominate the streets. Mayors and governors must establish an overwhelming law enforcement presence until the violence has been quelled. If a city or state refuses to take the actions that are necessary, then I will deploy the United States military and quickly solve the problem for them. Now that is martial law, ladies and gentlemen. Okay, a temporary military rule of a domestic territory.

That is absolutely martial law if that happens, welcome to a fascist regime. I remember people saying a year ago that it was too soon to call Donald Trump a fascist. I didn't think so. Well, Joe Biden yesterday was meeting with community leaders in Delaware, and he actually met with more than a dozen black leaders in a church in Wilmington. And he said he's soon going to put out an economic plan to deal with the disproportionate toll on the black and Latino communities from coronavirus, amongst other things. Here is Joe Biden.

I want to make something clear. I don't expect anything from the black community. I've never taken it for granted. Never once in a moment. My entire career, if I ever stayed alive in 50 years, so I expect to not show up. Joe Biden does not have this in the bag. Joe Biden has to go out there and beat Donald Trump. I know that they're sitting around hoping that Donald Trump loses, but this really looks like Hillary Clinton all over again. Hillary Clinton had all of these big double-digit leads and all of these different polls

leading up to the election, even on election day, and then on election day she got washed. Why? Because the Electoral College leans heavy Republican. Why? Because there's Russian interference. Why? Because there's voter suppression. Why? Because there's voter suppression. Who knows why Donald Trump won in 2016, but Joe Biden is looking the same way

unless he really, really leans into blackness. So, yes, you do need an economic justice plan for black folks. And yes, you do need to put a black woman running mate on your ticket. And yes, you've already committed to putting a black woman on the Supreme Court. And Joe Biden needs to do all of those things in order to secure this deal, because guess what? There's no good going to come to America until they do right by black people, period. And we need to make sure that we vote. So don't forget that primaries are this week for certain states. All right.

Well, that is front page news. Get it off your chest. 800-585-1051. If you need to vent, hit us up right now. Phone lines are wide open. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. The Breakfast Club.

I've been working on with the Story Pirates and John Glickman called Historical Records. It's a family-friendly podcast. Yeah, you heard that right. A podcast for all ages. One you can listen to and enjoy with your kids starting on September 27th. I'm going to toss it over to the host of Historical Records,

Nimany, to tell you all about it. Make sure you check it out. Hey, y'all. Nimany here. I'm the host of a brand-new history podcast for kids and families called Historical Records. Historical Records brings history to life through hip-hop. Flash, slam, another one gone Bash, bam, another one gone The crack of the bat and another one gone life through hip-hop.

Each episode is about a different, inspiring figure from history, like this one about Claudette Colvin, a 15-year-old girl in Alabama who refused to give up her seat on the city bus nine whole months before Rosa Parks did the same thing. Check it. And it began with me. Did you know, did you know? I wouldn't give up my seat. Nine months before Rosa, it was called a moment. Get the kids in your life excited about history by tuning in to Historical Records. Because in order to make history, you have to make some noise. Listen to historical records on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. Wake up, wake up. Wake your ass up.

This is your time to get it off your chest. Whether you're mad or blessed, we want to hear from you on The Breakfast Club. Hello, who's this? This is Michelle. I'm calling from Georgia. Hey, Michelle, get it off your chest. Peace, Michelle. Hello. This morning, y'all, I am upset. I want to get it off my chest.

I'm just upset that America keeps trying to tell people how to protest. And quite frankly, I do. I have a lot of respect for Martin Luther King and his children. But I'm tired of hearing from them. Where Malcolm X children at? Where Nat Turner children at? Because I have a 12-year-old son. And when he watched that video, I saw it in my son's eyes.

He felt like that was his daddy down there. You know, with the police knee on his neck. So those are the people that are rioting. It's not us. It's not us 80s babies. It's not us 70s babies. It's these children that are actually able to see now what's being done. See, we heard

about it. Our parents told us about it. We saw it on video. But now it's going live. You've seen it with Rodney King. We have seen it before. I do want to say one thing though, Michelle. Y'all gotta stop disrespecting Martin Luther King Jr. Martin Luther King Jr. was one of the most

radical, gangster protesters ever. Like, yo, no disrespect to Malcolm X because I love Malcolm X, but have you ever seen Malcolm X on the front lines like Martin Luther King Jr. was, getting sprayed with hoses, with dogs sicked on him, billy clubs getting beat

upside his head. And let's not act like everybody that went Martin Luther King Jr. was about peace. Stokey Carmichael then was about that action. We got to really stop disrespecting Martin Luther King Jr. like Martin Luther King Jr. wasn't out there on the front lines of all the smoke. We got to stop that. Yeah, well, the thing is, the thing is that it's a peaceful way to protest and it's a violent way to do it. And at this point, we just can't tell people which way to protest. They're mad as hell.

So we figure out how to take care of that. Then we can, you know, organize. But until then, we can't come together. We are on two different levels. We have some people want to do it peacefully. We have some people want to do it violently. So where are we going to meet in the middle? Well, here's the thing. Protests aren't supposed to make people feel comfortable. So nobody can tell you how to protest because it's all about disruption. But there was no peaceful protest even with MLK because they used to get their ass kicked.

Exactly. Yeah, that's true. That's true. But I'm just saying that at this point, we have to find a way. Okay, so then tell the people to stop moving. Tell the people to stop being violent. They're not going to do it. They're tired of hearing the same thing, the same rhetoric every time it happens.

I get it. But I love you guys a lot. All right. Well, thank you for checking in, Mama. Get it off your chest. 800-585-1051. If you need to vent, hit us up right now. It's The Breakfast Club.

This is your time to get it off your chest, whether you're mad or blessed. You better have the same energy.

We want to hear from you on The Breakfast Club. Hello, who's this? What up, man? It's Knowledge, man. How y'all doing? What's up, Knowledge? Get it off your chest, bro. Man, hey, man. I feel the passion of the looting, but I've been since the 80s. I done seen riots, but I haven't seen a plan out there.

You know what I'm saying? I'm asking for three things after this, man. I'm asking for health care insurance for our elders and beyond. I'm asking for farmland. They owe us that so we can grow whatever without all these laws of marijuana. I'm also asking for drug rehabs and medical, I mean, mental health centers on every corner in the hood, man. That's what we really need and more, but that'll be a start. That's under the health care.

Hopefully, yeah, because, like, for example, right now, the higher class and the people that's getting in the higher class, they just sitting back and say, oh, that property going to drop. I'm just going to come in and just do what I do. We need to have a plan, man. And some of these young kids out here that I'm seeing, honestly, they're not even all black. They just taking from the van store.

They taking from this store. Man, they taking for their own personal gain. And we need to have a plan. We need the A.R.N. to arise in the Charlemagne and be like, all right, what's next? What's next? Because you see our passion. You know what I'm saying?

Where's I? We got the right to bear arms. All right, let's get our own militia. All right, cool. You got the military. All right, we got ours. We still got the right to bear arms and we're going to peacefully protest.

We're going to get rubber bullets too. But at the end of the day, we need insurance, man. We need farmland. Man, right now, it's a shortage. Ain't you tired of getting your fruit from Mexico? You tired of getting your pork and your beef from China and Japan? You know what I'm saying?

You shouldn't be eating pork anywhere. Huh? Well, I'm from Pine Bluff, Arkansas, man. What you talking about? I'm from South Carolina. I'm from Moscow in South Carolina. But I don't eat no pork. But listen, I'm from Pine Bluff, Arkansas, man. I like that. What you talking about? I'm from South Carolina. I'm from Moscow in South Carolina. But I don't eat no pork. But listen, I can honestly tell you, my brother, that there are several plans.

Black people are more organized and strategized than I've ever seen in my lifetime from everything from economics to politics. Trust me. There is a lot of things moving that you may not see. Everything ain't on social media, King. Thank you, brother. Have a good one, man. I'm excited to keep seeing that moving. I'm glad you're pushing that agenda too. Hello, who's this?

This is Claudia. Hey, Claudia, get off your chair. What's up, Claudia? This is what I want to say. Now cops are kneeling with everybody and politicians are kneeling with them, but what are we achieving by that? We're easily pacified.

You know, we're so gullible. They do all these little things, and we get nothing in the end. This thing happened over and over. In another two years from this, it happens again. In another year from this, it happens again. We have a nice, suave black president in power and nothing happened. He didn't even make no laws to protect us from these things. He stayed there for eight years and gone. We're talking about Biden who is senile. He's not going to do anything either. He's going to come in, do nothing.

So my thing is this. They need to have these politicians make some laws. And there are a lot of black politicians in there that is doing nothing at all. A lot of big, high-powered black people who is so scared, they hide behind the white people and they do nothing. And a lot of these protesters, they don't even know what they're protesting for anymore. You know, the only person I see could do something is Cortez. She sound like she'd talk a good game.

AOC bought that action. There does need to be some policies that are enacted now. That's one thing that has to be discussed and that has to be brought to the attention of people and the bills that have to be signed. So, yes, I agree.

There has to be action. Well, thank you so much for checking in, too. This is just a new version of an old problem. And as long as there's a system of white supremacy, there's going to always be these problems. It don't matter who's in the White House. If that person is not willing to dismantle the mechanism of white supremacy, if that person is not willing to change legislation that disproportionately impacts black folks in a negative way, it don't matter. Get it off your chest.

800-585-1051. If you need to vent, you can hit us up. Now, we got rumors on the way, Yee? Yes, we are going to be giving you some more information that you'll be needing this morning. YG is putting out a new song as the protests are coming around. And Ellen DeGeneres has demanded justice. She's speaking out as well.

We'll tell you what she had to say. All right, we'll get into that next. Keep it locked. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. The Breakfast Club. Listen up. It's just in.

All the gossip. Gossip. The Rumor Report. Gossip. With Angela Yee. It's The Rumor Report. The Breakfast Club. Well, YG has announced on his social media that he has a new song coming this week, Rumor Report. God, God. With Angela. Angela Yee. It's the Rumor Report. The Breakfast Club.

Well, YG has announced on his social media that he has a new song coming this week, FTP. You know what that stands for, F the Police. And so I guess we'll be hearing that at some point. He didn't give us an exact date. Now, another person who put out some music, LL Cool J, he put out a freestyle that was for Black Lives Matter. And here's what he said. America's a graveyard full of black men's bones. And I ain't got to tell you that Breonna Taylor got slayed in her own home. Had they lived, Sean could have rocked bells. Eric could have garnered attention. Beyond the t-shirts and obituary mentions. Oscar could have been counting

grants. Tamir could have went to rice. They owe them cops nothing, but all of them paid the price. So yeah, you right. We should protect our Second Amendment rights. Because in a second, a dirty cop could kick the door any night. A two-four, two-fin, a life for life. We refuse to live in hell while you living in paradise. Being black in America is like rolling in paradise. But the stakes are way higher.

You gambling with my life. Black lives matter. Drop on the clues bombs for LL Cool J. i feel like ll cool j was beating me up to the phone i feel like you know he was just giving me body shots that whole freestyle jesus and i like how he said black lives matter at the end he was expressing himself fried batter oh stop when he did the freestyle he said fish fry batter it's been a long time, but this don't matter. About to make this pop off like fish fry batter. Black Lives Matter. Drop on the Clues bombs for LL.

Shout out to LL. He was expressing himself, man. The best way he does, rapping. Yeah, I didn't like, I want to hear that over a beat, though. I want to hear LL actually put that to song.

I think he probably just wanted everybody to really hear the lyrics, clearly. We felt them. Every word. All right. And Ellen DeGeneres is demanding justice for George Floyd.

Now, if you guys remember, people were wondering where she was. Don Lemon called her out as a person who he felt needed to speak up as one of the celebrities who... Shut up, Don. All right. Well, she did speak out.

She shared a video to social media yesterday, and here's what she had to say about racism and police brutality and George Floyd's death. I am so sad and I am so angry and I have always stood for equality. I have always wanted to be the voice for people who felt like they didn't have a voice because I know what that feels like. And maybe you don't agree with how it's coming out, but you have to understand it and then we can heal it. I'm just so sorry that it's come to this. This has gone on way, way, way, way too long. So we've got to see fairness and we've got to see justice for all because right now this is not a fair world. Ellen is absolutely right you know

like i keep telling people when you point a finger at the protesters point all your remaining fingers back at yourself this is america's fault this is america's karma and everybody cannot act clueless and act like they don't know why all of this you know rampage and mayhem is going on you can't brutalize and kill people over and over deny them justice and equality and and not expect backlash like what part of no justice no peace don't you understand? I just want to know, you know, what are people like Ellen willing to do? Because, you know, none of this will stop until, you know, they're all willing to dismantle that system of white supremacy that they benefit from.

It means that they're going to have to give up a little bit of power. Are they willing to give up a little bit of power? All right. Well, Saweetie is donating all the proceeds from her Pretty Little Thing collection to Black Lives Matter. She partnered with Pretty Little Thing on a second clothing collaboration, and 100% of

the proceeds are going to Black Lives Matter. So it's all kinds of 90s throwbacks, including dazzled crop tops. They have baggy jeans. And so it's a 30-piece line, and it varies in price from $12 to $58. And a lot of the pieces

come with matching face masks as well. So all of that is going to go towards Black Lives Matter. I don't like how you say Black Lives Matter. After hearing LL Cool J say it with so much conviction, I think that we all need to step up the way we say Black Lives Matter. I'm serious. He says it with a step up the way we say Black Lives Matter. I'm serious.

He says it with a lot of emphasis to me. Black Lives Matter. Play it. Play LL's part to see if I match up to that energy. Black Lives Matter. That's what,

whenever we say Black Lives Matter from now on, I want to hear LL say it. Leave LL alone, man. I'm not bothering LL. I'm serious. Mm-hmm.

I want us to say Black Lives Matter with more energy and more emphasis. Okay? Remember, LL wanted to fight you in the ring. LL. I'm serious. I want us to say Black Lives Matter with more energy and more emphasis. Okay? Remember, LL wanted to fight you in the ring. LL definitely wanted to fight me in the ring. He saw me spar Sean Porter. I like LL Cool J, though.

LL Cool J is an icon. He is. But Black Lives Matter. I want that type of energy and emphasis whenever y'all say Black Lives Matter. You better leave LL alone, man. God, ye. Why do y'all think I'm playing? I'm not playing.

And that's your rumor report. Now y'all going to have LL mad at me and I'm being dead ass serious. Just play the drop from now on whenever you say Black Lives Matter. I want LL to say it. Black Lives Matter. You just wanted to play the fish batter. What part of serious is that? I didn't say nothing about fish fry batter. Yes, you did.

I said that it had the same cadence as fish fry batter. See? But I still like Black Lives Matter. I love it. Black Lives Matter. I love it. I love it, LL. That's not a diss. I'm not trying to be funny. I love it. Alright, well, we got front page news when we come back. Don't move.

It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. Good morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Angela Yeee charlamagne the guy we are the breakfast club let's get in some front page news where we starting yee well don't forget that primary elections are happening this week today if you're in dc indiana iowa maryland montana new mexico pennsylvania rhode island south dakota and june 9th, Georgia, Nevada, North Dakota, South Carolina, and West Virginia. So make sure you guys are all registered to vote, right?

All right. Let's get that. Because the Democratic nominee isn't secured yet, right? So you still got to go out there and vote for Joe Biden, right? Mm-hmm. Make sure you register to vote, guys. And you are voting and you are registered. All right. Now, an independent autopsy that was ordered by George Floyd's family has found that his death was a homicide caused by asphyxia due to neck and back compression that led to a lack of blood flow to the brain.

That's early findings from the examination that was released yesterday. So just let's not have any false information out there because as you know the family has done an independent autopsy. They were trying to talk about underlying conditions and intoxication leading to his death. No, the reason why was because of what those

officers, what that officer did to him, Shaban, by pinning his knee to his neck. Nobody thought otherwise, except for the white devils, the white supremacists trying to make excuses for the police. We all got eyes. We saw the video. Mm hmm. Right.

And George Floyd's funeral services are scheduled for June 9th in Houston. There will also be a memorial service planned in Minneapolis where George Floyd was murdered. So June 9th is the date for that funeral in Houston. And a memorial service will be held this Thursday from 1 to 3 p.m. All right. Now, George Floyd's brother also went to visit the site of his death. And Terrence Floyd was overcome with emotions when he went and visited that memorial yesterday. His knees actually buckled when he saw a massive painting

on the wall in Minneapolis of his brother. And after sitting on the spot where he died, he did speak, and he was pleading with protesters to direct their anger to bring change and not to bring destruction. If I'm not over here wilding out, if I'm not over here messing up my community, then what are y'all doing? Y'all doing nothing because that's not going to bring my brother back at all.

In every case of police brutality, the same thing has been happening. Y'all protest, y'all destroy stuff, and they don't move. You know why they don't move? Because it's not their stuff, it's our stuff. So they want us to destroy our stuff. So let's do this another way. Let's stop thinking that our voice don't matter and vote.

Not just vote for the president, vote for the preliminaries, vote for everybody. So he said he wants to see them all get punished to the full extent for what they did. We can't just vote, though. You got to demand things of your elected officials, man, because it doesn't matter who's in the White House

or who's in these positions of power if they're not willing to dismantle the mechanism of white supremacy. If that person's not willing to change legislation that hurts black people in regards to police brutality or police reform. If they're not willing to change those things, it don't matter. So it's not just about voting. It's about keeping our foot on their necks to make them change these laws.

So you got to keep the heat up in some way, shape, or form. Yeah, and it's important to know who is actually running, who you want to be the elected officials, and to vote for those people, make sure you know them, attend town hall meetings, make your voice be heard, you know, and those things are important as well. Yeah, because voting only changes things

when the people we vote in want to change them. Like, we keep acting like this isn't by design. The whole function of systemic racism is to marginalize black people. That's why we have to demand that they change things. So, I mean, he got to come from somewhere. Protest, you know, just holding different politicians accountable by, you know, by, I don't know, by not voting for them.

Not saying don't vote, but, you know, just letting them know, like, if you don't do what we want you to do, we're not going to vote for you. Right. And, you know, you can always go on whoever your official's website is and you can set up meetings. You can go to their office. You can ask them to come speak at events that you have. All of those things, that's their responsibility.

All right. All right. And Minnesota Attorney General Keith Ellison is taking over the prosecution, as you know, in George Floyd's death, and he says they are taking another look at the actions of the other police officers present. He said, I can assure you we are taking a fresh look. We plan to hold everyone accountable who is legally culpable. So he said that he has spent the last 24 hours reviewing evidence,

and he cannot right now ethically comment as a prosecutor, but that's what he has said thus far. All right, well, that is your front page news. Now, when we come back, over the weekend. What are we doing? Over the weekend, we got a phone call, and they said that Rush Limbaugh wanted to have a conversation with us. You got to give them a little bit more backstory than that.

Very important to note that the Breakfast Club, we're part of iHeartMedia, iHeartMafia. Rush Limbaugh is part of iHeartMartMedia, iHeartMafia. Rush Limbaugh is part of iHeartMedia. Correct. iHeartMafia. Yeah, so they called us and said, you know, we want you guys to have a conversation with Rush Limbaugh. So one side talking to the other side about possibly how we can,

I guess what's the words I'm looking for? I don't want to say explain to the other side, but. Here's the words I'm looking for? I don't want to say explain to the other side, but. Here's the thing. Rush is probably the biggest voice in radio in regard to conservative politics. He felt like the death of George Floyd was wrong and police brutality needs to stop. And, you know, I think everybody in this room, we're all for white people using their voice, you know, using their privilege to combat prejudice. And in order to dismantle the white supremacy, you know, that I was just talking about,

we got to push the people who benefit from it, whose ancestors created it, to help dismantle it. So he wanted to have a conversation about, you know, why George Floyd's death was wrong and how the police need to be held accountable. I think that was a step in the right direction. Something that we all agree with. But other than that, that call was very nerve-wracking. There wasn't much more left to agree on after that. Other than that, personally, I feel like it was a total waste of time.

But, hey, y'all might think otherwise. Yeah, I mean, we had to ask him about other things that he said in the past, and it just wasn't like kumbaya. No, it doesn't work like that. You can't, you know, in my opinion, issue on everything that we've ever, you know, been about, and then come back and talk about kumbaya, let's talk about George Floyd.

No, you got to answer a lot of the other things that we had to have the conversation about. Let's not give too much away. Let's not give too much away, Envy. And he did play this on his show as well, on his platform yesterday. Yeah, when he explained it, he called you Julie. When he explained it, he called you Julie.

What did he call you? Julie Lee. Julie Lee. Julie Lee and Dr. Envy. That was Dr. Envy. So I'm going to tell you something. Dr. Envy's nice. Who is Julie Lee?

I think Rush has like, I think he has like 25, 30 million listeners a week, maybe more. I actually heard it could be up to 50. I say 50 million a week, they say. If those people who never heard of The Breakfast Club before think that DJ Envy is a doctor, boy, they got a negative perception of us. That's all right. I ain't mad at that. That's what you got to call me from now on.

All right, Julie? Dr. Dre. Shout out to Dr. Darius in Detroit. Word. Word. I'm a doctor. Julie, you good over there? Why'd you shout out Dr. Darius in Detroit. Word. Boy, I'm a doctor. Julie, you good over there? Why'd you shout out Dr. Dre?

I want to know why he didn't call you nothing. He probably called you something under his tongue. But anyway, we'll get back to it next. His name is Rush, not Russ. You called him Russ a couple of times. Yeah, you called him Russ throughout the whole interview. Throughout the whole interview. I can't help what God does to my mouth sometimes.

Whoa. That's right. I bet you none of y'all are Paul's God. Yeah, you thought about it too. You thought about Paul's God. Work that mouth, you. All right, so let's be serious. Rush Limbaugh, when we come back,

it's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. The Breakfast Club. Morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha Guy. We are The Breakfast Club. We're still kicking it with Rush Limbaugh. Charlamagne? Let me ask you a question,

because I remember in 2014, you criticized President Obama, and you said he should do more to ease racial tensions in the wake of the grand jury decisions to not indict the white police officers in Ferguson. You said if he wants to, he can inspire. And I think it's called for in this situation. Shouldn't that same advice apply to President Trump right now?

Absolutely. I think it applies to all presidents. Absolutely. No question about it. That's one of their roles is to calm circumstances and situations like this. But look, guys, can I ask you, you keep harping on white privilege and racism. Would you tell me how to end it? What can we do to end this so that you are not frustrated and angry and feeling like whatever you feel like?

Because I hate it. You guys, we're all Americans here and I don't like the fact that you're angry all the time. So what can we do to stop the racism? Here's the thing, right? As long as there's a system of white supremacy, you know, there will always be these type of situations. You know, it doesn't matter who's in the White House if that person is not willing to dismantle the mechanism of white supremacy. If that person is not willing to change legislation that disproportionately impacts black folks, it doesn't matter.

You know what I'm saying? Like, we've seen this a million times. Tell me what happened. You had four years of Barack Obama. You had Americans, white Americans, voting for Obama because they wanted to say, we're not racist, we're not a racist country. You had people electing the first African American president in our history. He served for

eight years. Why isn't there anything to show for it that makes you less angry than you were then? Once again, it doesn't matter who's in the White House if that person is not willing to dismantle the mechanism of white supremacy. Come on, guys. Elections don't matter

now? I think that when you, we got to stop acting like white supremacy isn't done by design. The whole function of systemic racism is to marginalize black people. And it's very hard to get any damn near 80-year-old white man to change the system that's been working for him and his family for years.

I don't care if it's Biden or Trump. So once again, we need people that are willing to dismantle the mechanism of white supremacy. Okay, let me ask you guys, why do you still vote Democrat? I vote for whoever I think is the best candidate. Because the Democrat Party has been promising to fix your grievances for 50 years, and you have the same grievances, you have the same complaints. They haven't done a damn

thing for you. They haven't even punished the people that you think are responsible for the racism and bigotry being done to you. Why do you keep supporting them? And, you know, I don't disagree with you. And I don't that's why I'm not letting nobody politicize black pain and tell us that this is one person's fault just because they are trying to win an election in November. This is America's fault. And the war on drugs, mass incarceration, segregation, slavery, all of those things are and have been the proverbial knee on the back of black folks' neck. And until somebody is willing to dismantle the mechanism of white supremacy, nothing is going to change. Well, Rush, I also don't want to lose track of what we're talking about here

because I know we're trying to focus on George Floyd and what's happening with him and how can we take some actionable steps to move forward and what can be done. So on your end, what are some things that you feel like can be done? I think that cops should be charged with first-degree murder. And I think that the guys standing around ought to be charged, the other cops that were standing around i think it's it's time to end this look you we we we are all aware of police brutality we're all aware of the uh actions that some rogue cops take uh and it's way too many of

them against african-american men and it's time to stop. And I'm not a policeman. I'm not an executive in a police department. But it seems to me that if those people end up being charged instead of shielded when they commit murder, there shouldn't be any legalized murder. And that would be one way to at least get a start on making sure it doesn't happen. George Floyd was, for everything I've been able to tell, was a good guy. He was a nice guy. Had a family.

Did not even come close to deserving having his life taken from him like this. Not at all. Not at all. Now, do you agree with the way that the media is portraying everything? You're in media. And you know, media is white media, of course. Do you agree with how they're portraying everything that's going on right now god i don't i don't think we've gotten the truth out of most media in three or four years i i don't know i it's and i think that's

another reason why people are mad you guys they know they've been lied to they were lied about so many things for two three four years now and so now they don't know what to believe coming out of the media. And I don't care what it is. Fox, CNN, New York Times, Washington Post. There doesn't seem to be anywhere in our culture that people have trust in an institution or series of institutions that provide a backstop and reliability when something like this happens. And I think that's creating or contributing to even more of the unrest that's happening out there. Rush, how would you advise Donald Trump to handle this situation?

Because I see that he's having some issues. He's calling people thugs. He's talking about sticking the dogs on people if they try to come into the White House. But then you see how he treats people who are protesting the stay-at-home order and they have guns and they're white people and they're fine people. So I just want to know know what advice would you give to the president right now to say

this is what we need to do and this is how you should handle it because I don't think that he's handling it properly with his verbiage. I think what the president ought to do is use the God given humility that he has that he that that and don't doubt me that he does he has he has a lot of humility nothing humble about the president come out no there is even at every rally you will see his his appreciation for the people that show up uh but i it's it's simple matter of understanding he's president of everybody here and trying to quell these moments of unrest is something that would be really, really to his advantage. I think what you said about Obama in 2014 applies. When you said if he wants to, he can inspire. And I think it's called for in this situation.

But I don't think he wants to inspire. I think he wants to incite. Okay, first, I do agree with you about the inspiration. I think he can. I think he should. I think all presidents should. In terms of Trump inciting, look, the guy has had everybody and their uncle telling lies and falsehoods about him for three and a half, four years now. And he's probably a little fed up with it. Before the shutdown happened, look at what

black unemployment was. It was a record low. The number of African-Americans have had jobs, the wages that were going up. And then this virus comes along and the bottom is pulled out from it. He's got to be frustrated as he can be. And I'm not trying to carry his water here for you. The black unemployment rate started going down under Obama, too, though. I mean, that's one thing that Trump takes credit for that actually started under President Obama. It did? Okay. Well, that's...

Then I'll... Can I ask you a question, Russ? Yeah. Moving forward. All right. Because, you know, the cops, let's say the cops get arrested. The cop gets charged. You go to jail.

Great. How do we dismantle white supremacy as a whole moving forward? Well, that's another show, guys, because, A, I don't, I don't, you'd have to define what it means to you. Because I don't feel like I am a white supremacist, and I don't think there's much white supremacy going on out there, but I need to have you define. See, this is one of the divides. I'll tell you that to me. Once again, this system is designed to work for the people that it was built by,

and that's white folks, particularly old white men. And now that people have had enough, because those white folks I spoke about earlier who are out there, you know, who really love black people as much as they love black culture, and they're out there standing with black folks, and they want to fight with us, I think this is the tipping point, and we right now are at a point where we can finally force America to live up to its grand promises of liberty and justice for all, and not just liberty and justice for white folks. It has.

That's my back to the beginning of the program. It has. It's out there. You guys have done it. Look, we're out of time here, but would you guys like to do this again where we pick it up right from this point and maybe make a focus on white supremacy?

Not if we're just going to dance the whole time. If you're going to have some honest conversation with us and stop telling us things like white privilege doesn't exist and you don't know what white supremacy is, if we could do that, yes. Well, Rash, I'm very into having these

conversations because I do think it is important for white people to acknowledge the hurt that they've inflicted on the African-American community and to be able to come forward and admit that we can't even move forward until that happens. Yeah, that's what I was attempting to do here with all of you today. On the white supremacy thing, I'm not in any kind of denial. I just know that it's a politically charged element of the Democrat Party's politics and liberalism. And I do not cave or compromise or give one iotas of an inch to liberalism no matter what.

So white white supremacy or white privilege is a construct of today's Democrat Party. And I'm not going to agree with any aspect of it as they put it forth. I'm not denying that there are certain individuals out there who think they're better than other people, but structurally, institutionally, white supremacy, that's a construct. You can't see how white people are

just treated better in this country than black people? Even just as far as how many people get pulled over by the police officers. We can have these conversations, but we gotta be honest with each other. You gotta admit that. Disproportionately, black people are get pulled over by the police officers? We can have these conversations, but we've got to be honest with each other. You've got to admit that. Disproportionately, black people are getting pulled over. Disproportionately, they're getting shot by the cops.

You set these things up. You have no idea how. And I can imagine what you're going to say if I sit here and say you have no idea how I have been mistreated by various elements, various groups, various companies, various individuals my whole life. It's called life and it happens. And we're all mistreated. I've been fired nine times in my career. But have you ever got thrown out your car because you were driving a nice car? Have you ever got just patted down just for being black?

Yeah, I've had my car keyed. I've had my tires blown. Of course. I'm talking about throwing out your car by a police officer because you're black driving a nice car. Or walking down the street in Queens, the area where you're from, and the police pulling you over and patting you down. Has these things happened to you? Don't talk about keying a car. I done got shot at.

They done shot up my car. Don't talk about keying a car and popping your tire. I'm talking about police officers pulling you out because you're black. Because you did nothing. I'm a hermit and a recluse and I don't go out and do all that kind of stuff. That kind of stuff has never happened to me. I'll grant you. I want to ask you one more question before we get out of here.

I've never had the cops assume that I am. Well, actually, no, that isn't true. I have been pursued. Stop. I have been pursued by the cops. I have been pursued. Oh, Russ, stop. I have been pursued by the cops. I was pursued by, absolutely I have. But look, guys, let me thank you again. No, no, let me thank you again for giving me the time today

and having access to you and at least the chance to talk to you. I do appreciate it. And maybe we can do it again. I look forward to it. Thank you, Russ. I do want to know why you think all those white kids out there on the front lines protesting and fighting with black people, I salute them. But why do you think they're out there, Rush? Because they're fed up with what happened to George Floyd.

They're fed up with this situation that will not stop that caused all this and provided the opportunity for all this to happen, meaning the opportunity to protest and riot. There are more Americans fed up with it than you know. That's my point. What about America, though? You don't think that the fact that there's 40 million people who are fired from unemployment, the largest unemployment rate since the Depression era, you don't think that they're fed up about that, too? Well, I already acknowledged that earlier in the conversation. You can't put 40 million people out of work. but i'm telling you that you have a lot of simpatico people out there white people were marching in the 60s with dr king there were in fact dr king's death did not cause this kind of strife in this country martin martin luther king jr is dead because of racism and white supremacy.

Well, okay. If that's your answer to everything, then I don't know where we're going. It is, though. It is. He's dead because he was fighting against racism and white supremacy. All right. That's why he's dead. Well, good luck, guys. Thank you for the conversation.

We appreciate it. If we can do this again, we'll do it again. That was our conversation with Rush Limbaugh. We got more coming up next. It's the Breakfast Club. Good morning. Working on a weekend like usual. This is the Rumor Report with Angela Yee.

Rumor has it. On the Breakfast Club. So listen up. Well, Floyd Mayweather has offered to pay for George Floyd's funeral services and they actually posted a copy of the check and everything. It's $88,500. Now, we don't know whether or not the family has accepted that offer,

but he is offering to do that, and he is sending that check to the Fort Bend Memorial Funeral Home to cover everything. Very, very honorable. That's dope. Dropping the clues box for Floyd Mayweather. That was definitely dope. And Drake has donated $100,000 to the National Bailout Fund to aid arrested protesters.

He posted a screenshot of that donation as well. And it's an organization that reunites families, creating a national community of leaders who have experienced incarceration and working with groups across the country to transform harmful systems to keep people safe and free, according to their website. All right, dropping the clues bombs for Drake. Very honorable. Everybody being charitable. That's beautiful. All right. Now, another person, though, that has spoken out, J.R. Smith. Yesterday, we reported about him beating up a person who was breaking into his car, broke his car window. And now J.R. Smith is saying that he kind of feels disappointed with himself. Here's what he had to say on

the Pat McAfee show. It was just a random act of stupidness, and I give him that, but that ass whooping was a random act of stupidness on my behalf. And you know it's sad because after the first two kicks, in the third one, you could kind of see it wasn't that much emphasis on it because

at that point, when it happened, I seen red. And then when I, like, when I finally snapped two and what was going on, I was so, I'm still like disappointed with myself. Even though people say I shouldn't be. But it's just like, for me, I'm 34 years old. I have four little girls at home. Regardless of the fact whether it was right or wrong. I don't want them to have that image of their dad. JR, you should not feel that way.

That was a very, very impressive beatdown, drop on the clues bombs for JR Smith. I often watch these fights online, and I'm like, damn, these dudes can't fight. Damn, these dudes ain't hitting hard. JR was on that young man's ass. I'm surprised the young man was able just to get up and run the way that he did,

but I'm sure that his adrenaline was so pumping, and he probably was on some drugs. That's probably why. But JR, you did a phenomenal job, sir. Yeah, I didn't have a problem with it. I mean, I'm minding my business in a residential area and you're just going to start effing up my ish? No. My first reaction is

to beat your ass. I think anybody who finds somebody breaking their car show window, their windshield is going to do that first and foremost. Phenomenal job, JR. You have nothing to be ashamed about nothing to be embarrassed about okay your good good footwork the kicks were landing properly okay it was good job nice punch but i do understand i do understand what he says about having four little girls at home and he doesn't want that image to be the image that they see whether it it was right or wrong. You know, I get that you have children and you're like, all right, I don't want them to

look at their dad like this. Well, also, isn't it protect your protect your family and your property? I mean, one thing about my daughter says, you know, they know daddy's the protector. I'm not just going to let somebody come up and F-ish that I work very hard for. No, it's not going to happen. Well, that was his thoughts. And your daughter needs to see that video because your daughter can show that video to all her future boyfriends and all her future boyfriends can be on notice

that daddy will whip your ass. Okay? Even at the age of 65 when J.R. gets old. But yes, you can't fault somebody for reacting that way when you're breaking their property. But I feel him on everything that he's saying as far as what he regrets. But nobody looks at you like you're breaking their property. But I feel him on everything that he's saying as far as what he regrets, but nobody looks at you like you were wrong for that.

All right, Jason Whitlock. He is leaving Fox Sports. Apparently both sides could not come to an agreement on a new contract. So they said they believe that he's looking into starting his own direct-to-consumer business, according to sources. So we shall see what happens.

But right now they're looking for a new host to replace him. So he's not going to be doing the show with Marcellus Wiley no more? Nope. They said Friday was actually his last day. If Fox Sports 1 does not hire Jemele Hill, they are crazy. Okay, Jemele Hill used to be on ESPN. She's got her podcast, Unbothered, right now. She does the podcast with Van Laten

I think it's called Down the Hole I know it's about the wire Yo, that would be a good pairing Jemele Hill and Marcellus Wiley on Fox Sports 1 I would love to see Jemele back on TV Discussing sports every day Alright, well I'm Angela Yee And that is your rumor report

Alright, thank you Miss Yee Now Charlemagne Yes sir Who you giving that donkey to? You know, I need our celebrity in chief, Donald J. Trump, to come to the front of the congregation. We'd like to have a word with him. Okay. What donkey is this of the year that you've, I mean, with Donald Trump?

You've given him how many? Three already? Four? Do you know? I've lost count, sir. I'm going to be honest with you. I don't know. I even had, I had to stop myself because he literally could get donkey of the day every day.

So I try to pace him out. But, you know, when you're turning America into a military state, I think that's a good time to give him one. All right. We'll get into that next Keep It Locked. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. Donald J. Trump is calling for a total and complete shutdown of Muslims entering the United States. Wouldn't you love to see one of these NFL owners when somebody disrespects our flag

to say, get that son of a bitch off the field right now. Out. He's fired. He's fired! Please step up to the congregation. Yes, you are a drug. When Mexico sends its people, they're not sending their best.

They're bringing drugs. They're bringing crime. They're rapists. He's a jackass. Donkey of the day for Tuesday, June 2nd goes to our celebrity in chief, Donald J. Trump. I'm going to tell y'all something, man. The last time I saw someone live up to and exceed all expectations like Donald J. Trump was LeBron James. Let me explain. Let me explain.

Let me explain before your little simple-ass brains explode and your thumbs get to saying Charlemagne just compared Donald Trump to LeBron James on the radio. Relax your digits before you tweet and listen, okay? When LeBron James was a junior in high school, he was on the front cover of Sports Illustrated. Junior in high school on the front cover of Sports Illustrated with the headline,

The Chosen One. I remember this article in 2002 by Grant Wall. It said LeBron James is so good that he's already being mentioned with Michael Jordan. ESPN played one of LeBron James's high school basketball games on TV. Might have done more than one, but I remember one in particular because I remember an article that Jay Bilas, I think that's how you pronounce Jay's last name, Jay Bilas, Jay Bilas, Jay Bilas wrote asking the question, did LeBron mania go too far? Jay also asked what level of coverage, coveting, and pursuit is appropriate for a 17-year-old kid playing high school basketball? I remember all that, and the reason I remember that is because I was thinking to myself, and we'd be having discussions that they are about the Memphis Bleak, this kid LeBron James. No disrespect to Memphis Bleak.

That's my man. That's my guy. And I'm not saying anything that I haven't said to him in a conversation here on The Breakfast Club. But do you remember when Jay-Z was touting Bleak as the new improved Jay-Z? He put that bar very high. He made expectations for Bleak really, really high. Okay? Like, damn, we was all like, wait, the new improved Jay-Z? at the time, it was Jay-Z who gave us Reasonable Doubt, okay, classic, In My Lifetime

Vom 1, classic, In My Lifetime Vom 2, classic, we was like, wow, if Jay says this guy is the new him, then this guy must be phenomenal, the problem with that was Bleak was good, but he wasn't hove, and it kind of made folks not appreciate Bleak the way they should have, because he was good, but he wasn't ho. And it kind of made folks not appreciate Bleak the way they should have because he was good, he just wasn't Sean Carter. Okay? LeBron James didn't have that problem. LeBron James, if you remember back when he first came in the league, all the hype surrounding him, they called him the chosen one,

they called him the king, the heir to Michael Jordan's throne. To me, personally, LeBron James has exceeded all expectations. To me. He absolutely has. I don't think he's better than Jordan, but that's not the point. He's top five of all time easily. People debate whether he's better than Jordan, whatever. My point is, he is who they said he was. They are who we

thought they were. Now, as I was saying about the president, the last time I have ever seen someone live up to and exceed all expectations like Donald Trump was LeBron James. Ladies and gentlemen, Donald J. Trump is who they said he was. Who is they? Everybody.

Okay, I remember in August 2016, there was an article on QZ.com that said Donald Trump and his followers could destroy America. I remember Politico had an article that said in the era of Trump, is the GOP headed for ruin or renewal? I remember Indivisible.org said Donald Trump is a national security risk. I remember The Atlantic had an article that said, will Donald Trump destroy the presidency?

People have written books comparing Trump to Adolf Hitler, and they've compared him to other dictators like Stalin and Mussolini. You've heard people say Donald Trump will lead America into fascism. When all these things were being said in 2016, 2017, we said, no, that'll never happen in America. Give the executive producer, celebrity apprentice a chance to run the country. Things won't turn out that bad, even though everybody and their mama and their grandma said, no, it's going to be bad. Congratulations, Donald J. Trump. You have exceeded all expectations of how bad people thought you were going to be. Okay, America right now, unemployment rate past 40 million. Largest

unemployment rate since the depression era. Americans are shipped to death because they don't know what will happen when the pandemic relief ends. Okay, there's anarchy in the street because the law and order president, as he calls himself, encourages police officers to rough folks up. So he made an already horrible problem in America, police brutality, worse. So now that folks are out there in these streets protesting, rioting, looting, what does he do? He declares war on the American people. This is your man live from the Rose Garden in D.C. yesterday. Listen. My administration is fully committed that for George and his family, justice will be served. He will not have died in vain. But we cannot allow the righteous cries and peaceful protesters to be drowned out by an angry mob.

The biggest victims of the rioting are peace-loving citizens in our poorest communities, and as their president, I will fight to keep them safe. I am your president of law and order and an ally of all peaceful protesters. I am mobilizing all available federal resources, civilian and military, to stop the rioting and looting, to end the destruction and arson, and to protect the rights of law-abiding Americans, including your Second Amendment rights. Today, I have strongly recommended to every governor to deploy the National Guard in sufficient numbers that we dominate the streets. Mayors and governors must establish an overwhelming law enforcement presence until the violence has been quelled. If a city or state

refuses to take the actions that are necessary, then I will deploy the United States military and quickly solve the problem for them. He wants to use the military to quell the violence. He wants to turn America into a military state. Now, if y'all thought that stay at home quarantine thing during coronavirus, you know, that whole thing that he said was a hoax. If y'all thought that was martial law, nope. When we are a military state, that's martial law. Okay. Temporary military rule of domestic territory, military dictatorship. OK, an authoritarian government controlled by a military and its political designees. This is what we have come to America. I don't know if we are in infinity war or the end game right now. OK, did half of us already get snapped away or is this when we bought everybody back and we just finally trying to defeat Thanos?

All I know is once again, America, it got the president it deserves. Okay. This is America's karma. All right. Donald Trump is America's Frankenstein. He represents all the worst aspects of America for us, but all the best aspects that make America great for white people. Okay. This is what happens when you let white privilege, white entitlement, white arrogance and white supremacy run rampant. OK, see, every single one of those things are self-destructive because they aren't rooted in anything positive. All right. Donald Trump is president because this country was founded by rich white people who created and structured this system so that it would always work for. Guess what? Rich white people. OK, that's why white mediocrity is so often rewarded. Because rich white people, since the founding of this country,

always have had a built-in advantage. A cheat code of sorts, okay? Because the country was founded on principles, laws, and systems designed to benefit the Trumps of the world. And now, that guy is president. But never, at least in modern times, since I've been alive, has a white man revealed more about them damn devils than him okay donald trump has found a way to out white man the white man all right donald trump being the frankenstein of white supremacy has found a way

to marginalize everyone including other white supremacists okay donald trump has found a way to make everyone in america of all races colors, all creeds feel like a nigga. Oh, we about to be in a military state. We all oppressed and marginalized. We all niggas now. Okay, welcome to the club. Now, what are we going to do about it, niggas? Okay, are we all going to band together and finally force this country to dismantle this system of white supremacy?

Because as long as white supremacy exists, there will always be Donald Trumps of the world. He's just a new version of an old, pale problem. Okay? So until we have elected officials who recognize white supremacy and are willing to dismantle it, God bless us all. Please give the celebrity-in-chief, Donald J. Trump, the biggest hee-haw.

Hee-haw. Hee-haw. All right. Is there any hope? I guess, you know what, there is a little bit of hope. When I hear people like Gavin Newsom, governor of California, when I hear him say things like this. The black community is not responsible for what's happening in this country right now. We are. Our institutions are responsible. We are accountable. We have a unique responsibility to the black community in this country, and we've been playing slip service about that for generations. Things move away in headlines, and we indulge on the margins, but we don't systemically, foundationally address the root of these issues. We prune.

We don't tear out the institutional racism from all of our institutions, large and small. We don't. We know that. The question is, do we or are we prepared to do something differently about it? Mm-hmm. That's right. The black community is not responsible for what's happening in this country right now. Okay?

When he says we are, we are. He's talking to America. OK, though, the old white males and the white males that built this country, their institutions are responsible and they need to be held accountable for this moment and every moment moving forward. And it needs to be called out because white supremacy will not be dismantled until they choose to dismantle it. Keep the pressure on, people. All right. Well, thank you for that donk here today. Speaking of white supremacy. Earlier we played an interview, a conversation we did with Rush Limbaugh.

Now, over the weekend, we got a phone call from iHeartRadio, our people at iHeartRadio. The powers that be. The powers that be. The powers that be if you'd like to call them and said, hey, you know, Rush Limbaugh would like to have a conversation with you guys. He's disturbed about what happened with George Floyd and he would like to have a conversation with you guys about, you know, possibly telling his crowd and his listeners how we feel. Yeah, he felt like the death of George Floyd was wrong and he felt like police brutality needed to stop. As I asked him during our conversation, why now?

Why George Floyd? Why this particular situation, especially being that we've seen a million police killings. When I say a million, I don't mean literally a million, but we've just seen a whole lot of police killings since I've been alive. Yeah. Right. So after having the conversation, I think some people were glad about the conversation

and glad we were able to tell them how we feel. And some people were mad that we had him actually on the radio and it even spoke with him. Yeah. So just call us right now and tell us, do you think that that Rush Limbaugh interview was a waste of our time? Okay. We it even spoke with him. Yeah, so just call us right now and tell us do you think that that Rush Limbaugh interview was a waste of our time? Okay, we can put it like that. 800-585-1051.

Call us now. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. It's topic time. Call 800-585-1051 to join in to the discussion with The Breakfast Club. Talk about it.

Morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha Guy. We are The Breakfast Club. Good morning. What's happening? Good morning to you. I don't know what the hell is going on with my internet this morning. I know today is supposed to be a blackout, and my internet has blacked out 72 times this morning. I'm going to be honest with you. I internet has blacked out 72 times this morning. I'm going to be honest with you. I'm sick of sitting at home doing this show, man. I want to be back in the studio.

If you really want to know how I feel. I want to be back in the midst of action. Oh, you want action? Coming into the city in the morning. I miss taking a shower in the morning. You can still take a shower. I live right down the block from you, bro. You can come by any morning.

Taking a shower to go downstairs. To take a shower? Nah, we get people. You could come by any morning. Taking a shower to go downstairs. To take a shower? Nah, we get people. You're taking this Bert and Ernie thing too far. I know you've seen these Bert and Ernie memes where they make us Bert and Ernie, but you're taking this too far. There won't be no rubber ducky with me and you.

No rubber ducky, you ass. I'm talking about if you want to broadcast with somebody, you want to see me, we can broadcast. This guy wants to do rubber ducky with me. You always go too far. Always go too far. Now, what are we talking about? Rush Limbaugh. Rush Limbaugh, man. Yeah, as we told

y'all this weekend, we got a phone call from the powers that be here at iHeart. And it's very important that people know Rush Limbaugh actually works for iHeart Radio as well. So it's not like some, you know, it's not as random as people may think it is. We work for iHeart. Rush works for iHeartRadio as well. So it's not like some, you know, it's not as random as people may think it is. We work for iHeart. Russ works for iHeart.

And, you know, Russ didn't like the way that the George Floyd situation went down. He thought that the police should be in jail and he just, you know, doesn't want this to happen ever again. That's what he said. Right. I always feel like, you know, we should use, you know, white people's privilege to combat prejudice.

You know what I'm saying? You got to treat it like Starbucks Wi-Fi because we all know that, you know, this white, this mechanism of white supremacy, it has to be dismantled. But it can only be dismantled by the people that help build it and the people that benefit from it. I think so. Right. Let's open up the phone lines. 800-585-1051. Wanted to have a conversation, but when we had that conversation,

we couldn't forget all the nasty things he said about our community and our people. So some of that had to be addressed. So let's open up the phone lines. Hello, who's this? Yeah, this is Joe from Miami. Joe from Miami. What's up, bro? M-I-A-O. How you guys doing, man?

I love what you guys do. I love what you guys do a lot, man. Keep it up. Thank you, brother. Thank you, Kenny. We're talking about our interview with Rush Limbaugh. What did you think, bro? Listen, man, quickly, I'm a Puerto Rican kid from the Bronx. I live in Miami.

As a teenager, I lived in Virginia, and I experienced racism openly and directly, and it didn't feel good at all. I've experienced police harassment here in Miami. It doesn't feel good. I don't have a police record. I can say this, though. We need to have open hearts, and we need to take advantage of every opportunity we have to be heard.

And when a guy like Rush Limbaugh opens his platform up for us, you have to take advantage, guys, you know? So, listen, it might have took in George Floyd's death to get him to call you guys and reach out, but it's better than nothing, man. And we just gotta jump on this opportunity and show love, you know? Show love. Even though we

mad, we gotta show love. Because they want us to be mad, you know? The opportunity to engage can be very frustrating, but I do feel like if someone is willing to at least have the conversations and while we didn't agree on a lot of things, I feel like, well, maybe I don't feel like it was that productive, but we did it. We agreed on one thing, the rest of the things we did not agree on.

But I do feel like it's not like you're going to change somebody's mind in one conversation in 20 minutes either. It takes a lot more than that. I will say this. After he aired the interview, people were telling me that people were calling, his listeners were calling in support of what we were saying. So maybe it did get through to a couple people. Maybe it did.

I don't know. It's just a start. Let's go to another line. Hello, who's this? Hey, it's Mo. Good morning. Hey, Mo. What up's this? Hey, it's Mo. Good morning. Hey, Mo. Hey, Mo. What up, Mo?

Oh, Mo or Mo? I thought you said Mo. Mo. Oh, Mo. Yes. Hey, love. Good morning. Whatever.

I'm not sure what your name is, Mama. What are your thoughts about that interview? I feel like it was BS. I don't, like, he obviously didn't care for what y'all were saying He don't understand where black people come from He just got on the radio To try and clear his name so he wouldn't get any backlash I don't think he cares about the backlash

For some of the things he's said In the last 20 years of his career 31 years 31 years Oh I don, I don't know. Okay. Okay.

800-585-1051. We'll take more of your calls. We had a conversation with Rush Limbaugh. What did you think? Was it a waste of time? Do you think they're even listening? Call us up now. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. It's about time. What's going on?

Rumor Report. Rumor Report. This is The Rumor Report. Talk to them. With's about time. What's going on? Rumor Report. Rumor Report. This is the Rumor Report. Talk to them. With Angela Yee on The Breakfast Club. Yes, last night, TLC Iconic aired. It was four artists across all different genres coming together. They performed their take on TLC's biggest hits.

So you can stream it now on CWTV in case you didn't see it. It was all hosted by Jordan Sparks also. And the four artists were actually inside country music, R&B, hip hop, and yes, and pop. So you could see all of that right now if you stream it on CWTV. Now, Justin Bieber says that he does feel shame over the deaths of George Floyd and Ahmaud Arbery. He sat down with Angela Rye alongside his wife as well, Haley. Haley and he are both Christians. He said, we believe in the love of Jesus. Here is more of what Justin Bieber had to say about why this was triggering for him.

I've been feeling shame in the sense of like, why did it take these men being killed for me to almost like take a blanket over my eyes and be like like why why now and I just I gotta say I feel I do feel bad when it comes to that and make sure you download that on one podcast from Angela Rye salute to AR40 helping to close bonds for AR40. Haley Baldwin captioned the video post from the interview view that she put up as a white woman I know I'm privileged and I didn't always understand what that really meant. I will never understand what it's like to be racially profiled and targeted and wake up every day uncertain if I could lose my life because of the color of my skin. I want to know better so I can do better. And I will not stop asking these questions and having these conversations.

I want to keep learning how to be an ally and I refuse to keep walking through life being ignorant. And white people got to stop acting like they're afraid to get involved. Like, don't be worried about, you know, offending someone just because you're standing up for them. If your intention is in the right place and you're a human who doesn't want to see bad things happen to other humans, step the F up. I see a lot of white people stepping up though. I see a lot of white people stepping up. I see a lot of white people on up, though. I see a lot of white people stepping up. I see a lot of white people on the front lines. How do you feel about white people asking questions? How do you feel about white people asking questions about racism and different things?

Questions like what? Like coming to you to explain. I don't mind. And the reason I don't mind is because of a conversation I had with Michael Eric Dyson this weekend, but also because if you think about Malcolm X in the autobiography of Malcolm X, when that Caucasian woman at Harvard came up to him and asked him, you know, what can I do to help? And he said nothing.

Malcolm X said he always regretted that because he should have used that opportunity to teach. So I don't have a problem with white people asking questions. One time I was in Atlanta, this white woman came up to me at the bar and was like, and she was drunk and she was like, I don't understand what Black Lives Matter is about. Doesn't all lives matter?

And I did end up having a whole conversation with her for like 45 minutes. Yeah, I mean, yeah, that's good. Sometimes you got to explain. And I was like, why did I just do that? Hopefully she understands and she goes back to her friends and explains what you, you know, what you just told her. Hopefully. All right now.

Go ahead. I was going to say all the white people on the front line, salute to you and all the white people with platforms. Don't be afraid to use them to speak out for other human beings, regardless of what color they are. All right. For people who were looting at the Apple store, you cannot use the gadgets there. So I see people are posting,

they have the phones and it's a message pops up and it says, this device has been disabled and is being tracked. Local authorities will be alerted. So apparently a lot of the items that they have on display are just for display purposes, and they're able to lock things right away. And a lot of the phones, laptops, and all of those things that are locked away in the back, people couldn't get to that area.

So it's very secure there. So they were only able to take some of the display models, and then that actually pops up. They shouldn't have said anything. They should have acted like people can activate those phones and then just been able to please pop right up.

They shouldn't have said anything. The stupidest thing to steal is a goddamn iPhone. It's literally a tracking device. Don't steal a goddamn tracking device. What the hell is wrong with you? All right. Now, Joe Jackson, one of his grandchildren is in, is the victim of a hate crime. And she has, I don't know if you saw these pictures online. They're really difficult

to look at. She has injuries to her neck and face. Yasmin, Jasmine, daughter to Giovanni Jackson, revealed on Instagram that she was stabbed several times by a woman who called her the N word. And she was stabbed seven times right by her house. She said because of that, she said she was chased. The woman just chased her down and started stabbing her. She said it's because I was N-word and that's all I could hear while I was being stabbed. I can't move my neck at all. I'm scared to be alone. I asked people to help me because she was stabbing me and nobody helped until someone did. Actually, a few people did. And I'm thankful for you. I pray to God that if you have any kind of hatred in your heart toward black people, that you heal it. I didn't deserve this. Nobody does. And oh, by the way, I'm still effing proud to be black. So according to Yasmin, her attacker was

originally only being charged with felony battery with a deadly weapon. She said, I feel like she deserves attempted murder. And also this is a hate crime. She called me an N-word, and there are witnesses. And this is why I want every brother and sister in America to own a legal firearm. You know what I'm saying? This is why you have to, have to, have to, have to believe in your right to bear arms. Because that person should have been shot. She should have had a nice little.380 on her or something, a little.38 to get that person off her. Yes. Absolutely, man. They did end up booking this woman for attempted

murder. She said now to work on the hate crime charge. So that was the update. Alright, Tokyo Jets made a very, very terrible joke while she was playing around with one of her friends. Here's what she said. Yikes, Tokyo. You know, I was very shocked and appalled by that she did apologize afterward and like I said on her Instagram page this is the only post that she has up and here is her apology

no excuse it's not what this is at all I'm not doing this video to ask for no type of sympathy because what I did was wrong as hell. First and foremost, I want to just apologize to family, to people out on the front line, to people who actually stand up for us. And I don't want nobody to take nothing that I'm saying as an excuse because that's not what this is at all. I don't want nobody to ever think that I don't understand that I'm black as...

What does your Uncle Sharla always tell you? The craziest people in America come from the Bronx and all of Florida. Where is Tokyo Jets from? Come on, say it with me, guys. Florida. Okay. What's wrong with you? Tokyo can't help it.

She had a Florida foolishness. Yeah, it was a dumb statement. She had a Florida foolishness. Yeah, it was a dumb statement. She had a foolish moment. Very foolish. I don't think that reflects Tokyo Jets total. Not at all. I know her. That's why it was very surprising at all, period. But that's

her apology. So you know, not sure moving forward what's going to happen. But I see people calling to cancel her and all of that. And that's very, it was extremely hurtful. And she apologized to the family. Just a terrible, disgusting thing to say. So let that be a lesson for everybody.

All right. I'm Angela Yee. And that is your rumor report. All right. Thank you, Miss Yee. You know, I'm watching these videos of these looters, right? And I seen this one guy, he runs up in an Apple store and pulls out this big Apple, you know, TV, whatever it is, right? He gets halfway down the block.

They whoop his ass and take the TV from him, right? Then they walk down halfway up the block. Then these other looters whoop their ass and they take it from him. I'm like, it just makes no sense. It really makes no sense. It really makes no sense. You got to no sense. It really makes no sense. You got to have Wi-Fi on your Apple TV, right? You got to have Wi-Fi, right?

You got to use Wi-Fi. You don't think you're going to get caught? It makes no sense because I cannot stand a person who wants to take what somebody else has worked hard for. That Apple store is right up the block. You can run up in that goddamn Apple store and take your own damn TV. Shut up, man. Shut up, man. Why would you do that to that man? Shut up, man. All right, man. Shout out to Revolt, man. We'll see you tomorrow,

man. And I don't know what's going on with my Wi-Fi. Josh, if you're out there listening, Focus AV, come fix this Wi-Fi. This Wi-Fi, when I say blackout, my Wi-Fi has blacked out 72 times this morning. Please come fix this Wi-Fi. You should call your cable company.

Is that code for something? You're kinky, man. I'm begging Josh to come over. I'm begging Josh to come over and fix your Wi-Fi. Y'all rich people talk crazy. What's wrong with you, man? Before you told me, you said you want to take a bath with me on some Burton Ernie stuff with some rubber duckies. What's wrong with you, man. Before you told me, you said you want to take a bath with me on some Bert and Ernie stuff with some rubber duckies. What's wrong with you, man?

I can't with you this morning. I'm going to fix my Wi-Fi. You ain't got to make everything sound sexual, man. Josh be like, unplug me and plug me back in. Okay, guys. I hate you, man. Revolt, we'll see you tomorrow, man. People's Choice Mix is up next. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning.

Morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha Guy. We are The Breakfast Club. We got a special guest on the phone lines right now. Our brother from Houston, Bun B. Morning, Bun. Peace, legend. How y'all doing? What's going on?

Bless, King. What's going on? Doing pretty good, man. How's everything with you, man? I follow you, of course, on Instagram, and I've seen you flew out to Minneapolis and were part of that protest out there. So tell us what

everybody's mind frame was and everything that was going on in Minneapolis that day. Well, I mean, I went to a couple of places in the city. When you go out to the center of town, where a lot of the activity is, you see a lot of anger,

you see a lot of frustration, you see a lot of frustration, you see a community that's fed up because they've had several murders committed by police officers in their city with no culpability for the police officers and no justice for the family. And it was very strange that people think that this is all just about George Floyd, that people saw George Floyd die and immediately just started doing what they did. No, this is a culmination of, you know, for this particular community of Minneapolis, just, you know, several murders over the last year where people have been gunned down by police in the street. Not only have these people not been

arrested or charged and held culpable for their actions, they actually get to remain on duty. So they have to watch as murderers continue to patrol their neighborhoods. And they're fed up about this. You know, George Floyd was the straw that broke the camel's back in Minneapolis and in many ways around the country. You know, we hear about these crimes. People fight for justice for these kind of crimes. And because of the fact that there's no video,

there's no proof. And for a lot of people, there's no, for people in power, there's no outrage and there's no concern. And so you saw a lot of acting out based on that in the city. But when you go to the area where George Floyd was actually murdered in the streets of Minneapolis, you go to the area where George Floyd was actually murdered

in the streets of Minneapolis, you see pain, you see grief, but you also see a lot of people praying together, people unifying, people uniting, and from that area, strangely, there's a sense of hope that comes from there because people are like, you know, we need to stand together right now.

We need to all be together right now. So it's a very different situation that you see in the city of Minneapolis. And what are you guys doing today? Because I know today you guys are having a peaceful protest in March today in Houston. So explain to the people what you're doing, why, and all of that. Well, today we are, you know, Trader Truth and I are joining with the Floyd family to have a peaceful march

and protest in the city of Houston. We're going to meet in downtown Houston at Discovery Green, which is a large park in the middle of Houston. And we're going to walk from Discovery Green over to City Hall with the family and with the city of Houston joining us.'re going to walk from Discovery Green over to City Hall with the family, with the city of Houston joining us.

And, you know, we want accountability for the killers of George Floyd. There's only one person in custody right now. We need the other three people arrested, of course. But then, you know, we want action in our city. We want to make sure that Houston does what it needs to do from a legal standpoint, right, from a city standpoint to make sure that these kind of things aren't allowed to happen in our city. So we're calling for policy reform. We're calling for independent community board review with subpoena power so that they can have access to all evidence, all videos that involve any type of police brutality or police murder in the city of Houston. And, you know, we just want accountability for the people that are allowed to patrol our streets, but then also hurt or kill us in our streets with no repercussions.

And that's 3 p.m. today at Discovery Green. Go ahead, Charlotte. A lot of the peaceful protests have been turned violent. How are y'all going to prevent that? Well, I mean, you know, we're letting people know that this is a peaceful protest. We'll also have people inside of the rally that are going to be looking for that kind of a thing. You know, we're asking people, that's what you want to do.

I'm not going to tell you what not to do. Just don't do it there. Like, don't come to where the family is and disrespect their wishes in that moment. You know? Right. You know, Bunman, do you ever think we'll ever be able to truly abolish racism in America? Because none of this police brutality or anything is going to stop until we can dismantle this mechanism of white supremacy. Is that possible?

Is it possible for people to give up that kind of power? I don't know if that's possible, but what we can do is set up a higher level of accountability so that when people do commit acts of violence based off racism, that they're punished, they're punished quickly and they're punished appropriately. We still have to try, you know, I'm not just going to just quit and say, Oh, well, punished quickly, and they're punished appropriately. We still have to try. You know, I'm not just going to just quit and say, oh, well, racism won. I'm good.

No, I'm a parent. I have grandchildren. And just like my parents fought for civil rights and their parents fought against segregation and their parents fought against Jim Crow and my ancestors, you know, had to die because of slavery, I'm not going to not stand up right now. This is the time where my generation has to get active and we have to sacrifice some level of being comfortable for the greater good of our next generations. Every generation before us has done that.

And I feel like this is our time to stand up and do that. Yeah, so when you see white people, I saw James Corden last night and he asked the question, how can black people dismantle a system that they didn't create? I think you just gave us the answer.

That's what my podcast, Post Run High, is all about. It's a chance to sit down with my guests and dive even deeper into their stories, their journeys, and the thoughts that arise once we've hit the pavement together.

Executive produced by Questlove, The Story Pirates, and John Glickman, Historical Records brings history to life through hip-hop. Each episode is about a different inspiring figure from history. Like this one about Claudette Colvin, a 15-year-old girl in Alabama who refused to give up her seat on the city bus nine whole months before Rosa Parks did the same thing.

Check it. And no one did you know, I wouldn't give up my seat. Nine months before Rosa, it was Claudette Bowman. Get the kids in your life excited about history by tuning in to Historical Records. Because in order to make history, you have to make some noise. Listen to Historical Records on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts.
