I was donkey of the day Made it Damn the hee haw again It's time for donkey of the day I ain't trying to be donkey of the day no more They should be embarrassed about what they already did I'm not making these people do these things Called donkey of the day and it really caught me off guard

Damn so mean Who got the donkey of the day today Well donkey of the day for Wednesday, June 12th. Oh, drop on the clues box for Lil Duval. Today is Lil Duval's born day. Happy born day, Lil Duval. Hey, happy birthday, boy. Yes, Wednesday, June 12th.

It goes to a California school teacher named Wendy Munson. Now, Wendy was arrested in October of 2023 after a staff member saw something and said something. See, this staff member believed that Wendy Munson was teaching class drunk and she was correct. Can we flash back to the original news report from October 2023? Let's go to CBS News Sacramento. A second grade teacher is behind bars. The Sutter County Sheriff's Office said deputies responded Monday morning to Niestro Elementary School in Live Oak. In a letter to to parents the superintendent revealed staff reported concerns to administrators deputies say the teachers showed signs and symptoms of being under the influence Munson students shared the

moment class took a turn she was nice to me to the whole class but she had to stop with the lessons Munson faces charges including drunk driving after video footage showed her driving to school. Also, child endangerment for reportedly being drunk while teaching her second graders. Irate parents took their questions and concerns directly to the school. The principal did tell me that she was five years sober. Whether that's true or not, I don't know. But I also heard that there was a recent DUI arrest. Oh, man. Let me tell you something, man.

I hear a lot of kids, including my own, complain about teachers, not in the way that we complained about teachers, in the way that I believe Brandy complains about Ray J. Well, the way we all complain about Ray J. You know what I mean when I say that, right? You know, well-intentioned, hard in the right place, good people, but something's not quite right. I've been told by kids that you hear teachers complaining about the low pay they get which i understand but i think that's one of the issues because you know being a teacher nowadays especially in public school is truly a public

service because you're not doing it for the money it's something that most people do for the love because they damn sure not doing it for the pay now you have some public school teachers who feel like you know feel like that but then you have some teachers who mentally and emotionally probably just aren't fit to teach wendy munson coming to work drunk early in the morning she's clearly dealing with something she clearly has some sort of addiction and i think sometimes we forget we are the new adults okay i was born in 1978 i'll be 46 on june 29th i am fully grown been fully grown but we the new everything we the new pastors the new teachers the new doctors,

and we all shouldn't be, but here we are. And if it's one thing that this era, you know, if it's one thing that this era we are in has shown us is that there is absolutely zero consequences to people's actions nowadays. See, Wendy was arrested for DUI, and she was teaching class drunk, but she will not face any charges because apparently teaching while drunk is not illegal. Let's go back to CBS News Sacramento for the report, please.

It is not illegal to teach drunk. The shocking discovery after a months-long investigation into Sutter County second grade teacher Wendy Munson, who was arrested last October for driving drunk in child endangerment. There was the possibility that she drank after she arrived at the school. That's why District Attorney Jennifer Dupre couldn't file any charges, even though investigators say the teacher was on the job with the blood alcohol content level two times the legal limit. I certainly don't support anyone teaching children drunk, but I can't charge them criminally. Dupre says there is also inconsistency in the law for child endangerment, saying it's a matter of proving the teacher would endanger versus may endanger the children.

Jesus is not coming back, y'all. Why would he? He made that mistake already. He told his dad, nah, nah, that's a bad batch down there. Nothing we can do about that one. Nothing matters because nothing matters. That should be the world's creed nowadays teaching while drunk is not illegal it is perfectly legal for adults to be watching over elementary school kids while under the influence well damn it hunter biden uh you found your next act okay you can

smoke all the crack you want drink your liquor liquor, bring your gun. I ain't nobody cares anymore. If it's not illegal to teach while drunk, then a might as well be legal to buy a gun while under the influence, too. But let me stay out of those white folks business. They spent months investigating Wendy Munson, but could not file any criminal charges simply because they believe she drove to school drunk, but couldn't prove it. And though they don't support a teacher teaching while drunk, they can't charge her criminally. Parents rightfully so are concerned about what type of precedent this sets that teachers can be intoxicated while in the classroom. Well, it's going to set the precedent of second graders knowing what Don Julio and Ducey is before they know addition, subtraction, and multiplication.

Those kids see those bottles in their house, now they're going to see them at school. Might as well have open bars for teachers at this point. Kids got recess, teachers got happy hour america through all its flaws used to be a proper country okay everyone is just so morally bankrupt now that nothing matters because nothing matters i would think that if you show up to most jobs intoxicated except for this one uh especially as a school teacher then that's a fireable offense most schools are drug and alcohol free zones in this elementary school uh neustro elementary i believe it is states that for violators of this

the board shall require termination when termination is required by law so why isn't wendy munson fired also if you drunk around kids aren't you endangering them well according to what i'm reading there is inconsistencies in that too because it's a matter of proving the teacher would endanger versus may endanger the children. They couldn't prove that our intoxication would endanger them. That sounds like somebody drunk wrote that. I would think teachers would be held to a higher standard, but not in 2024. Why?

Say it with me. Because nothing matters. Because nothing matters. Please give Wendy Munson the sweet sounds of the Hamiltons. Oh, now you are the donkey of the day. You are the donkey of the day. Yee-haw. Yee-haw.

Can you believe that? No. I can't believe that. But I ain't gonna lie. I say depending on the grade. I would come in there drunk too. Yo, these kids these days. It's not gonna be like dysfunctional drunk.

But I'm gonna have to take a little shot. Loosen up. Walk in there. Take the edge off. You know what I'm saying? Like if it's like not second grade now. Come on, girl. Third grade?

High school. Shut up. No. Middle school, high school. All right, right yeah because they might come in there drunk too the students but i'm just saying not elementary but yo the kids these days are the hook so i'm gonna come in there how drunk well i'm glad you chose comedy and radio and media as opposed to uh you know being a teacher i didn't choose it it chose me yeah you can come to those places drunk and you've been over there Comedy and radio and media as opposed to being a teacher. I didn't choose it. It chose me.

Yeah. You can come to those places, John. And you've been over there choking for the past three minutes. I know. And I didn't know what to do because you're pregnant. The water go down the wrong way. You ain't even care. Excuse me. I did.

You didn't say, hold up, donkey. What's going on? You good, Jess? You was just like, yeah. Well, I didn't see you turning green. I peeked over there and you was still looking like you were breathing, so I thought you was cool. I was just thinking, how would I do the Heimlich with your pregnant belly?

No, there's no way that you could. But you did say Jesus made a mistake and he don't make mistakes. So why would you say that? I didn't say Jesus made a mistake. You said he made that mistake the first time coming back. Listen, listen. We've all made a bad batch of something. Okay?

Oh my God. God has created a lot of things in all of these different universes you ain't gonna tell me ain't a bad batch here on earth i don't care what no they become bad when they when they grow up you know while they're growing depending on what they see a bad batch is a bad batch eventually you got to throw it out that is so this ain't even his first this ain't even his first time trying with us okay all right he's done tried a lot of different things on this planet. All right. This one ain't working either.

All right. Well, thank you for that donkey today.
