There was no anything inside those eyes.
They turned black.
It scared the hell out of me.
People wake up.
I'm the one that saw the murder take place by Krivac and DePippo.
Anthony DePippo showed no signs of remorse,
appearing unfazed after being sentenced to the maximum.

June is Black Music Month, and on the Drink Chams podcast,
we're speaking with the hottest names in the culture, like Sway Lee.
Do you realize how legendary you are?
I appreciate that.
I'd be seeing it, but I'm like, man, I still got, like, so much more to do.
Like, Prince, he dropped, like, 30 albums.
We dropped, like, five right now.
That's the rate we got to be going.
Yeah.
That's a good attitude.
No matter the era, Drinkchamps brings you the biggest names and the most unfiltered conversations.

Here's something that should not be as complicated as it is.
Getting a racist statue removed.
And here's something that should be a whole lot easier than it is.
Getting a new one put up in its place.
I'm Akila Hughes.
And Rebel Spirit Season 2 is about both of those things.
As I was watching these statues come down, I was thinking about what it meant that I grew up in a majority black city in which there were more homages to enslavers than there were to enslave people.

Tell us, lady.
It's time for donkey of the day.
There's a bunch of donkeys out here in this street.
I'd have a donkey today.
Called donkey of the day, it really caught me off guard.
We live a life where we fight our tongue based off who we may offend.
We never were saying it.
Call the man, give a talk.
Give it to him.
You are a donkey.
That is why Charlemagne is here?
Some donkey today's just saw themselves.
On the Breakfast Club.
Okay, Charlemagne, we'll be giving donkey of the day to today.
Well, donkey today for Monday, June 15th, goes to the USC fighter, Josh Hokit.
Okay, oh, the mayonnaise is heavy with this one, ladies and gentlemen.
Now, last night, UFC Freedom 250 was held on the White House lawn.
A $60 million spectacle paid for by the UFC.
our tax dollars went to at least seven federal agencies who were providing standard security and emergency support.
Sounds like a waste of our tax dollars to me, but what do I know?
Now, Josh Holkitt won his bout at the UFC Freedom 250 event, and then as he was being interviewed by Joe Rogan after his match, he decided to say this.
Hey, shout at the Trump for having the to put some shit like this on.
And if I'm going to say anything, Moschelle Obama is amazing.
The Obama's haven't been in the White House since 2016.
Okay, but what they represent, the possibilities they represent for black people in this country,
scared of hell out of insecure white men like Josh Holkid, okay?
It bothers them and terrifies them to think the descendants of the enslaved, okay?
The descendants of the oppressed can rise to the levels that the Obama did in this country, all right?
Josh Hokit, you got the right last name, sir, because this is indeed the starter kit for being a hoe,
All right. By the way, this isn't the first time we've heard this foolishness.
All through Obama's presidency, Michelle Obama being a man was right up there with the Burferism conspiracy.
It used to be on message boards and in the deep, dark crevices of the web.
They used to call the former First Lady Big Mike.
And I remember when Joan Rivers made those comments about Michelle Obama on CNN of all places.
This was like 2000.
I don't even remember. 13, maybe. Let's listen.
And do you think that the country will see the first, the United States will see the first.
first gay president or the first woman president.
We already have it with Obama.
So let's just calm down.
Got it.
You know Michelle is a trend.
I'm sorry, she's a what?
A transgender.
We all know.
Oh my gosh.
That wasn't CNN actually.
But if you couldn't hear, she said that Barack was gay and that Michelle was trans.
So after that, people like Alex Jones amplified that conspiracy theory.
And then they had that old Christmas picture of Michelle and Barack.
that they altered to make Michelle look like a man.
It doesn't even make sense to fact check foolishness like this.
This is just a baseless conspiracy theory that has been circulating on the internet forever.
And it's been debunked over and over and over again.
And this is one of those times I'm grateful that the first lady has her own platform,
okay, her own podcast because now Michelle, you got content, okay, if you choose.
All right, I don't think we've ever heard her address how those rumors made her feel.
And by the way, if she chooses not to address it, I'm cool with that too because the reality is the truth don't need no defense only witnesses.
Okay, I just find it strange that Josh Holkitt just want to fight.
You did what you came to do.
You had a chance to thank your family, okay?
You could have thanked Satan because I'm sure that's who you worship.
You could have promoted your next fight.
You could have saluted your sponsors.
You could have told your mama you love her.
Instead, you used your moment to shout out Trump and slander former first lady Michelle Obama.
And I don't know why you MAGA lovers do that because all you do when you bring the Obama's up is remind people of what is currently missing from the White House.
Okay. See, the Obama set a standard for decency and class and poise and intelligence in the White House.
Okay. That no longer exists now. All right. You didn't have to agree with the Obama's politically to recognize that they were a masterclass in dignity.
All right. Truly grace under fire.
Now that bar is in hell.
Okay, Satan and his demons use that bar to limbo.
They got that bar down there and they cha-cha sliding to it.
You hear me?
How low can they go?
Can they go down low all the way to the floor?
How low can they go?
Can they bring it to the top?
No, they can't.
Okay, the bottom is their ceiling.
And people like Josh Holkitt remind us of that every chance they get.
See, this event was supposed to be celebrating the 250th anniversary of the Declaration of Independence.
Okay, the Declaration of Independence.
Okay, the Declaration of Independence asserts that all people are created equal and possess unalienable rights, okay, including life, liberty, in the pursuit of happiness.
This was a reminder that Josh Holkitt and people like Josh Holkitt don't look at black people as equal.
Okay, it's really that simple.
This was his way of marginalizing the First Lady and trying to remind us all, they don't see us as equals.
And life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness is for them, not us.
Okay.
This country has been trying to dehumanize black people forever.
Every few years somebody comes and dust off the same tired playbook and introduces it to a new generation.
But my brothers and sisters, don't let ignorance dehumanize us.
Okay, since some of us came to this country, they have been trying to question our humanity,
our intelligence, our beauty, and I guess now, even our gender.
But don't ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever allow somebody else's foolishness, okay, to make you,
internalize their lives.
Okay?
Never let anybody else's
foolishness
make you internalize their lies.
Okay, never let anybody else's
prejudice become your self-image.
All right, black people have survived
way too much
to let conspiracy theories
and stereotypes define us.
Okay, their dehumanization
is their sickness, not our identity.
Please let Chelsea Handler
give Josh Holkitt
the biggest he-ha.
He-ha, he-ha!
That is way too much, Dan Manehays.
Can Kathy Griffin
Griffin give them the biggest he-ha-ha-to?
Please give this giant
are male, the biggest he-ha.
I know Chris Rock is busy
celebrating the Knicks win, but has he got anything
to say? Cracker ass, crackle.
Oh, what about my girl that worked the drive-thru? She still worked there?
Oh, okay. Okay. Okay.
Anybody else?
That's my squad. That's my squad. Well, thank you for that donkey today.
They was just telling you what they like with they chilly. That's all.
Okay. All right. Now let's open up the phone lines.
800 585105.1.
We got to talk the Knicks this morning.
It's been 53 years in the Knicks won a chip.
And it just feels different.
Just feels different.
800 585105-1.
I feel like this, what?
You got to say, pause.
You got a nick in your ass.
That sounds like you got a nick in your ass just not.
It just feels different.
It just feels different.
It just feels.
It sounds like you're virgining.
You ain't had a nick in 53 years?
You got a little cherry pop.
8-8-5-105-1.
How does this make you feel?
And not just New Yorkers.
New Yorkers calling, too, but also around the country
because people were Knicks fans
because they just felt the love.
It made people fall back in love with basketball
and made them watch the finals again.
People that weren't necessarily into basketball,
like we were talking to Mimi,
and Mimi says she had a phone-o, like, you know,
for her missing out, so she had to watch it.
And it's New York transplants everywhere.
That's right.
Be clear on that.
That's right.
So let's open up the phone lines.
Let's discuss 800-585-1-1-1-1.
5-1. It's the Breakfast Club. Good morning.

Every family has its secrets.
But what happens when you discover that your dad has been living a double life?
That is not the look of an innocent.
Is everyone lying to me about who they are?
I felt such desperation.
I felt it was what I had to do.
