It's time for Donkey of the Day. So if you ever feel I need to be a donkey, man, hit me with the heel. Did she get donkey today, please, Desi? Absolutely. I have become donkey of the day.

It's a breakfast club, bitches. We're donkeys. Yeah, donkey of the day it's a breakfast club bitches yes donkey of the day put your headphones on man i am got a moisturizer come on for thursday may 4th why are you so rough when you do it too huh my dermatologist hates that by the way okay uh donkey of the day for thursday may 4th goes to a 55 year old man named paul belosia hicksville i have no idea what hicksville is but i can only assume it's a town full of Hicks. Well, this Hick clearly believes in a creed that a great urban philosopher by the name of Pastor Young, Jeezy that is, once delivered, and that creed is trap or die. Okay, in this case, trap or fly, because that is exactly what Paul was attempting to do,

because Paul is an American Airlines mechanic who worked at JFK Airport and he was found guilty Thursday of trying to smuggle over $300,000 worth of cocaine stashed in a hidden compartment under the cockpit. Let's go to CBS News for the report, please. An American Airlines mechanic has been convicted of smuggling cocaine through JFK Airport. Paul Beloisi was found guilty of trying to transport 10 bricks of the drug from Jamaica in 2020. The cocaine was hidden inside an electronics compartment beneath the plane's cockpit. Prosecutors say the drugs were discovered when the flight was selected for a routine search by Customs and Border Patrol. Officers caught Beloisi by replacing the 25 pounds of cocaine with fakes and waiting to see who would come to retrieve it.

The mechanic faces up to 20 years in prison. Come on, man. 25 pounds of cocaine trying to smuggle on a plane? Who still does that? Y'all watch Cocaine Bear, the movie? No, I never saw it. Basically, it was a true story where a plane that was carrying cocaine crashed in some kind of forest and the bears got high and went crazy.

And honestly, when you first said, how do people still do this? I don't see how they don't. I mean, literally, the fact that he did it is probably because he's been getting away with it. Yeah, he's probably still do this? I don't see how they don't. I mean, literally, the fact that he did it, it's probably because he's been getting away. Yeah, he's probably doing this for a long time. No, I agree. He's probably number 10 for you. And what kind of pit was it?

A cockpit. Yes. Oh, my. Got him. We in the building. Jesus. Jesus. No, I mean, it's crazy because this is clearly happening.

Did you see the BBLs? the girls that just got a bbl they got pulled over from a traffic stop and literally she had to lay down in the back seat because her butt she couldn't sit on it and she said can i just can i just get away with a warning she was found um oh god i think they had 150 pounds of weed in her bbl in a sienna in a Sienna van in their luggage. Damn. Oh, I thought it was in the BBL, man. No, it wasn't in the BBL. But she's laying down in the back of the seat because she can't sit on her BBL.

I do agree. And now she got to go to jail with her BBL. I agree with a lot of what y'all saying, especially about the movie thing. Because I feel like Pablo Paul has watched one too many episodes of Snowfall. You know what I mean? Because smuggling cocaine in the plane's electronic compartment like it's a glove box in the car, that's kind of wild. You know what I mean? Is that why flights have two-hour delays?

Imagine hearing you missed your connecting flight because Paul was inspired by season one of BMF. That's crazy. Now, I don't knock nobody's hustle, but when the hustle is executed like Tyreek in season one of Power, it's a problem. Okay? a hustle is executed like Tyreek in season one of Power, it's a problem, okay? And Paul got caught because the police actually swapped out his drugs with dummy bricks that have a luminescent spray in them. Whoa. What I'm trying to figure out is how he didn't notice that. So he opened that thing and it just...

Yeah, but how you don't notice that? It just came in his face? Is that how that happened? You said the luminescent... Whoa. Whoa. Wheezy and Maddie are crazy. I'm so sorry.

They already dropped off in that school, right? Yes, they are. They are. The moral of the story is all of this drug dealing ends the same way. Either you get caught or you get killed. Did you not see what happened to Franklin Saint? There's not a drug dealer that wins ghost is dead okay the stories

are all different but the endings are all the same it's a better job what's the better job listen man when it comes to drug dealing, no idea is original Nothing is new under the sun It's never what you do because no matter how it's done You will end up in jail So please give Paul Belosi of Hicksville The sweet sounds of the Hamilton's

Oh now you are the donkey Of the day You are the donkey Of the day. You are the donkey. Of the day. Yee-haw. All right. Well, thank you, Charlamagne, for that donkey of the day. That's right.

And shout, before we do, we have to close out. And shout to BET. We'll see you guys tomorrow. All right, guys. Say bye to BET, Mandy and Weezy. Bye, BET. Over there. No, no, no. Over there. Look, I like it. We're not doing it. We're not doing it. All right, guys, say bye to BET, Mandy and Weezy. Bye, BET! Over there. No, no, no, over there.

Look, I like it. We're not doing it. All right, everybody else, when we come back, we're going to have a real conversation. Ebony K. Williams will be joining us. That's right. We talked about it the last couple of days about the comments she made about bus drivers and then doubling down. I think it's a bigger conversation than just the bus driver thing

too, though. You know what I mean? Because, you know, she doubled down in her comments. I took it as she said that the working class was average and mediocre. She feels like she didn't say it in that way. I felt that way too. That's not what her intention was. So she'll be up here to talk about it. Right, and we're going to talk to her next, all right?

And the beige rage doesn't come out. So the beige rage meter is going to be in this conversation? I'm sure it will be. Oh, 100%. If you have good producers, that's all going in there. We'll have that discussion next. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning.
