Yes. Two degrees outside. Now I know that there you know, where breakfast club is broadcast in a hundred plus markets throughout the
country and I know that it's snow down south. It's cold everywhere right now. I
know it might be cold where y'all at. But boy here in New York City. That's right. Here in New Jersey, you know
the black mothership that's what we call this studio. This is where we broadcast from
New York City. It's brick. It's at two degrees. It's brick, brick, brick, brick, brick.
Lord have mercy.
It's beyond shrinkage season.
We got clitoris.
It's clitoris.
Jesus.
I was going to say it made me miss LA, but it's a lot going on over there right now too.
Yeah.
Either or.
You can deal with the fires and the smoke or deal with this coldness.
I mean, at some point people just got to embrace that climate change is real.
I know that a lot of conservatives
or climate change deniers, but there's no reason to be
because clearly something is off.
Yes.
It was snowing in New Orleans.
That's my point.
Snowing in New Orleans, snowing in Texas.
Oh my God.
It was snowing in South Carolina.
It was snowing in Porto, Florida.
Like to Florida.
Porto, Florida, yes.
I saw that yesterday.
That didn't even look real.
I was watching the news last night
and I'm like, it's snowing in Florida?
I saw them putting down the Cajun seasoning
instead of the salt in New Orleans. I said, it's real. Did they really? Yeah. New Orleans
y'all not on TikTok. That's not true. That's because y'all not on TikTok. New Orleans,
snow TikTok. It's undefeated. They was putting the Cajun seasoning out. They was on Bourbon Street
having a good time. They had the bottles in the ice. I'll show y'all. The Cajun seasoning,
that's just performative for TikTok. I don't think that actually works. Does that actually work in New Orleans?
Somebody from New Orleans call us up right now.
Somebody that listens to us on Q93 at New Orleans call us up.
I've never heard that.
It could be.
And the reason I say that is you know in some markets-
Instead of salt trucks they got Cajun seasonally trucks.
Because they don't have salt.
They don't have salt.
Like even in some markets they don't have salt trucks.
So they throw sand on the floor because they don't have salt because they're not used to
this.
So if they don't have sand and they don't have salt-
Yeah but down south everything shuts down if it's an inch
of snow everything just shuts down people stay home grocery stores get
empty and everybody just stays home until this passes. Now I'm gonna find this tic tac for y'all.
Well maybe they just use mad Lowry's mad Lowry's seasoned salt all over the place. It was Zazeran.
Oh Zazeran? Yeah look. I'm not saying that a person's not online doing it I'm just
saying I think that's performative cap.
Oh yeah, that is.
Yeah, that's definitely.
That ain't working.
Yeah, no.
Okay, I just don't believe it.
No, not at all.
All right, well let's get the show cracking.
Anita Copax will be joining us this morning.
Man, Anita Copax is a fantastic author.
She is on my book imprint,
Black Privilege Publishing with Simon & Schuster.
Her first book was called Shallow Waters.
She just put out the sequel to that book
called The Wind on Her Tongue.
She has a series called The Daughter of Three Waters Trilogy
and book number two came out yesterday.
It is called The Wind on Her Tongue
and Anita will be here to talk to us about it today.
And tonight we're gonna be at Brooklyn
at Greenlight Bookstore at 7.30 p.m.
having a conversation about The Wind on Her Tongue but we'll be here on The Greenlight Bookstore at 7.30 p.m. having a conversation about the wind
on our tongue, but we'll be here on The Breakfast Club
discussing it this morning.
All right, well let's get the show cracking.
We got front page news.
President Trump is, President Trump,
and we'll tell you all about it.
Trump is Trumping.
He's Trumping Trumping, but we'll tell you when we come back
so don't go anywhere, it's The Breakfast Club.
Good morning.
Morning everybody, it's DJ NB, Jess Hilarish,
Alameen the guy, we are The Breakfast Club.
Long LaRosa filling in for Jess,
and let's get in some front page news.
Morning Morgan!
Good morning, DMV, Charlamagne and Lauren, y'all doing good?
How's the weather by you?
Yes, good morning.
Oh my god, it's freezing cold.
We don't have too much of the wintry mix just yet, but we are dealing with some bone chilling
cold here in the DMV.
Speaking of cold, it's a cold world out here. Let's just go ahead and get right into it.
President Trump, he is defending his stance to pardon the January Sixers. He made the
comments yesterday during his first press conference as president. Let's just jump right
into it and hear more from President Trump.
These people have already served years in prison,
and they've served them viciously.
It's a disgusting prison.
It's been horrible.
It's inhumane.
It's been a terrible, terrible thing.
I also say this.
You go to Portland, where they wrapped police officers,
shot police officers.
Nothing happened to anybody. You go to Seattle, where they wrapped police officers, shot police officers, nothing happened to anybody.
You go to Seattle where they took over a big chunk
of the city and people died.
Portland, a lot of people died, wait a minute.
And you go also take a look at Minneapolis
because I was there and I watched it.
And if I didn't bring in the National Guard,
that city wouldn't even exist today.
People were killed and nobody went to jail. So these people have
already served a long period of time and I made a decision to give a pardon.
Trump should have just said look you got to get your goons out when they put in
work for you. Okay when your goons put in work for you and they get jammed up you
got to go get them out. So the family of a police officer who died that day, Brian
Sicknick, they called this
pardon an undoing of justice.
The largest police union, the same police union, the Fraternal Order of Police released
a joint statement saying it's deeply discouraged by the pardons.
This is the same police union that actually endorsed Trump to become president.
Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer, he slammed the president's move calling it
un-American and two Republican Senators, Alaska's Lisa Murkowski and Louisiana lawmaker Bill
Cassidy, they both said they're disappointed and it's not right.
But you knew he was going to do this. Trump told America this is what he was going to do this. Like Trump told America this what he was going to do
on day one and he kept his promise to his base,
you know, immediately.
He said he was going to do it and he did it.
Nobody should be surprised by any of this.
That's why I'm surprised
because he said it from the beginning.
He never said, well, I'm not going to do it
or maybe I'm just gonna do it.
You're surprised that he did it
or you're surprised people are surprised?
I'm surprised people are surprised.
It's not like Joe Biden that says,
I'm going to let the court handle my son
and then he switch directly.
He said from the door, I'm gonna let my people
out.
He said day one I'm part of them. I guess maybe they thought he was bluffing.
They are who he thought they were. Let him off the hook. All right Trump also announced
a private sector investment in worth billions of dollars to build AI infrastructure in the
US. Tech companies Oracle, OpenAI and SoftBank are creating a joint venture titled Stargate.
SoftBank CEO Masayoshi Son, AI's Sam Altman and Oracle's Larry Ellison all spoke at the
White House to announce the AI infrastructure and it will contribute $100 billion to investments
to start.
The plan is to pump up to $500 billion into it over the next couple of years.
Let's hear more from Trump on his AI infrastructure plan.
But to announce the largest AI infrastructure project by far in history, and it's all taking
place right here in America. Together these world leading technology giants are announcing
the formation of Stargate. They're a new American company that will invest $500 billion
at least in AI infrastructure in the United States.
Yeah, so Trump said Stargate will be building the physical and virtual infrastructure to
power the next generation of AI.
Ellison added that the group's first data project, which is 1 million square feet under
construction in Texas. Now, speaking of internet type things, Trump says he's okay with TikTok being sold
to Elon Musk or Larry Ellison. He made that those comments in that same press conference
saying that Trump would be on board and he liked Ellison a chairman of the tech company
Oracle to buy it too. Now, TikTok is currently in a state of limbo in the US after the Supreme Court held a law banning it. And of course, the
app went dark for about 15, 16 hours over the weekend. Trump has signed an executive
order pushing off the ban for about 90 days, but the Chinese company ByteDance still has
yet to sell the app or, you know, basically getting good standing for it to
operate legally in the U.S.
Switching gears, the executive orders do continue and this one is for my people in the DMV because
I know that's a lot of federal employees out here.
The federal employees in DEI, diversity, equity, and inclusion roles have been placed on leave.
This comes as Trump has signed an executive order directing the ending of federal DEI programs which
offices are being ordered to shut down. Now the White House press secretary
Carolyn Levitt called the move a win for Americans calling DEI programs a scourge
on society. Yeah. I'm not surprised by that either. He said he said this is what he was
going to do and he did it day one
He's keeping all his promises if you voted for Trump you heard him say he was going, you know
Get rid of DI and things of that nature
So he said he was gonna do all these things and if that's what you voted for you're a happy voter today
That's right. I don't know what to tell you. Yeah. Yeah
One more thing that just seems to be like really impacting people
I don't know if they're aware of is an executive order.
He is rescinding a Biden era executive order that research how to lower
prescription medical costs.
Yeah, Biden's order asked to health as the health and human services secretary to
explore new health care payment and delivery methods that would lower drug
costs to promote access to innovative drug therapies.
Well, Trump got rid of that directive on day one as well during his presidency along with other orders in place that he deemed
unpopular, inflationary, illegal and radical. So you guys want to keep an eye on your drug
cross prescription drug costs. Now in rack up maybe if you can, I'm not sure. But I will
keep you posted.
If you vote about it, if you voted for him because the groceries are too high, then you
are not happy about that in any way, shape or form because you know, it's all about
Keeping keeping money in American people's pockets. That's what people said they voted for they voted for the economy, right?
They voted because they wanted to have more money in their pocket. Are you definitely not happy about that? Yeah, we never I don't I
I'm still reading through the executive orders because it's a lot but I don't see groceries on the list
All right.
Well that is front page news.
We'll see you next hour.
Everybody else get it off your chest.
800-585-1051.
If you need to vent, phone lines are wide open again.
800-585-1051.
It's The Breakfast Club.
Good morning.
The Breakfast Club.
Time to get it off your chest.

Whether you're mad or blessed.
It's time to get up and get something.
Call up now.
800-585-1051. The Breakfast Club. The Breakfast Club. The Breakfast Club. The Breakfast Club. Time to get it off your chest. Wake up! Whether you're mad or blessed.
It's time to get up and get something.

800-585-1051.
We want to hear from you on the Breakfast Club.
Hello, who's this?
This is Curtis from the 229.
Hey, what's up, brother?
Get it off your chest.
What the hell is the 229?
Yeah, I'm calling for Charlemagne and get Snoop Dogg.
Don't get a day for singing at Roger Racing, him and Nelly.
I'm not doing that.
What's the 229?
I'm not doing that.
What's the 229?
I'm not doing that. I'm not doing that. I'm not doing that. I'm not doing that. I'm not for Charlemagne and get Snoop Dogg. Don't get a day for singing at Roger Racing,
him and Nelly.

229 South Georgia, right off the area.
Okay, okay, got you.
That's all you got?
That's all I got.
Yes, sir.
Yeah, I'm not doing that,
because I think it's ridiculous that people got more smoke
for Snoop Dogg and Nelly than they do
for elected officials
who told us that Donald Trump was a threat to democracy,
a fascist, they likened him to Hitler,
but then Barack Obama's at President Carter's funeral
showing all his teeth with him.
President Biden's walking him back to the White House,
having tea with him after pardoning his whole family
because he's such a threat and such a danger.
But the only one I got love for is Michelle.
Shout out to Michelle. Michelle kept that same energy
oh yeah
Alright, little peace out

But get it off your chest.
800-585-1051.
If you need the vent, hit us up now.
We got Jess with the Mess coming up.
Yeah.
So Chris Brown just dropped a $500 million lawsuit.
He is tired of people trying to defame his name.
And we're going to talk about it. All right. We'll get to that. Next is the Breakfast Club. Good morning the Breakfast Club
Morning everybody is DJ envy just hilarious. I mean the guy we are the Breakfast Club
Let's get to just with the mess with Lauren LaRosa
Alright y'all so Chris Brown is over. He's tired of people coming for him about things that are not true according to him.
He actually just dropped a $500 million lawsuit.
The lawsuit is because of a docu-series that ID did called Chris Brown and history of violence.
So Chris Brown is saying this docu-series that y'all put out is full of a bunch of lies.
He's accusing Warner Brothers, Discovery, Ample and a couple other individuals who are
behind the scenes or behind the series of promoting and publishing defamatory claims
against him.
Now, he says that this happened after he reached out and they were provided proof that the
narrative that they were going to go with in this docu- this docu-series, according
to him, was completely false.
Chris Brown is saying that the Jane Doe, who is the center of this docuseries has been discredited several times and that
he's actually never been found guilty of any sex related crime. But he believes and feels
like this docuseries paints him as a serial rapist and a sexual abuser even though he's
never been found guilty of anything in relation to those two things. He says that the doc
was based on a lawsuit
that Jane Doe filed that she later withdrew withdrew because according to him, the lawsuit
was full of lies. Now this is something that happened back in 2022. There was a woman on
a boat who accused him of some things and then it was withdrawn. Her lawyer backed away.
He says, look, I've spent 10 years plus trying to rebuild my reputation and this doesn't
help. He says that, you know, he acknowledges in the doc that there are past things, right?
Like he's taken accountability for things like physical assault of Rihanna.
But he says that this documentary is pushing an old narrative that isn't supported by anything
that is factual.
And because of this, he has been impacted both his reputation, his career and his business
opportunity.
So he wants his 500 million.
And if he's awarded the 500 million,
he plans to donate part of this money
to victims of sexual abuse.
That right there is a fantastic lawsuit
because folks been playing with Chris Brown's name for years
and the network is big as, well, Discovery ID, right?
Discovery ID, Warner Brothers is mentioned,
and a few other places as well.
They decided to jump out there
and do a whole documentary for TV
based on accusations and allegations that haven't been
proven anywhere. See a lot of times these allegations and accusations are made on
social media or they're said on YouTube there's nothing to gain by suing those
bottom feeders but when you can sue all those big companies and corporations oh
it's worth it. And I love it because I think it sets a precedent because if you
notice now everybody's doing a documentary right everybody doing a
documentary based off of anything that they see on social media.
So the fact that he does that now,
anybody that's thinking about doing a documentary
about a celebrity that's somebody that has some money
that can possibly sue, you gotta think twice.
Yeah, in the same way I feel like you shouldn't be able
to press charges and remain anonymous as a Jane Doe,
why would you create a whole documentary for TV
based on allegations of a Jane Doe?
Makes no sense.
That don't make any sense to me. And we know nobody cares about the truth when the lies more entertaining, but you have to
care about the truth when you are a multi-million dollar corporation.
Right?
Yeah.
And to correct, I said 2022, this was back in 2020.
But most of the time I will say that these documentaries, if they do them correctly,
they based them on like court docs and stuff like that.
But you are supposed to follow up and say, this was not, we found that this was not correct. This was withdrawn. Like you have to clarify that.
So we'll see how this plays out. Now in other court news, Aset Rocky, we talked yesterday
about Aset Rocky, the trial started for the alleged situation with him and Aset Bradley.
So Aset Rocky went to court yesterday. He was in court yesterday in LA and this was
just basically for him to plead guilty,
not guilty.
They also presented him with a deal, and they offered him, he rejected the deal, but they
offered him, in exchange for him pleading guilty to one assault charge, he would only
have to serve 180 days in county jail, three years of probation, and a seven year suspended
prison sentence.
And Asa Rocky said, nope, not happening.
I'm going to take this.
He must know he going to win that case.
Because I mean, if there was actual footage, because I've seen it, didn't they say there
was footage or something like that?
There is video.
The one, the video that I saw though, there's a lot of like shoving back and forth.
You can't really make out a lot, but I don't know.
There is video.
There's two videos.
There's the one, it's a close up video and you see all the shoving it's it's a set Rocky
and a set really in the video and there's like somebody in between and then
there's a bigger video that's like broader Street view where you see where
this is allegedly where the shooting parts of place he must know without a
doubt that he's gonna get off because you know you think about it they
basically go give you 180 days which is still which is still time yeah but in LA
they commute everybody's sentence because the jails are overpopulated, right?
So most people in LA only do a percentage of the time.
So he must know for a fact that he's good money.
Consider this is a daily news podcast and lately, the news is about a big question.
How much can one guy change?
They want change.
What will change look like for energy?
Drill, baby drill.

friend who is ASAP in Hollywood back in 2021. So that's another one we just come to watch.
I ain't playing with the jurors like that. They don't know the culture. They see me come in with I'm not surprised that he didn't I am I'm not surprised
You better hope the jury full of Rihanna fans and he tells them like look man if y'all put me away y'all never get another
So in other news for the hour,
Bernie's King and sexy red two names I didn't think that I
would ever put in one sentence at a time. But they had a little
back and forth online yesterday. So you guys know Monday was
Martin Luther King Day. People were posting a celebration and
sexy red actually posted this photo right here. This is an AI
photo. She posted this to Twitter.. This is an AI photo.
She posted this to Twitter. She's not twerking on them
because that's the first thing people are gonna think.
What, she's twerking, she's not twerking.
It looks like she's slow dancing.
Yeah, for anybody who can't see it, who's listening,
Sexy Red is not twerking on Martha the King.
They are in a very, like they're like dancing.
They're like slow dancing.
Yeah, like she's slow dancing.
She's holding his hand.
He's staring in her eyes.
She's staring in his eyes.
Again, an AI generated photo, it went crazy viral.
By the way, y'all was doing Martin dirty way before AI.
Okay, y'all had Martin with Hennessy bottles in his hand,
y'all had Martin on Meek Mill body,
standing in front of Phantoms.
Y'all was doing them dirty way before AI.
I saw a video yesterday, women talking about
who would be the best tipper in a strip club,
Martin Luther King or Malcolm X.
That's wild.
It was insane, but Bernice King, who is the daughter of Martin Luther King came out
and said this is intentionally distasteful dishonoring deplorable and
disrespectful to my family and my father who is not here to respond himself
because he was assassinated for working for your civil and human rights and in
end to end war and poverty please delete. So Sexy Red responded and she said you
ain't wrong never meant to disrespect your family
My apologies just reposted something I saw and I thought that it was innocent. I
Loved how that was handled
I love the fact because Bernice wasn't wrong and the King family been telling y'all to stop playing with their daddy likeness and sexy
Red handled it like an adult. I respect it big sexy handled it well
And Martin would be the better tip in the script club. I just want to put that out there.
You think so? Absolutely. Why? I just think he would be.
Why? I think y'all should all read The Sword in the Shield too.
It's a fantastic book, alright, that talks about Martin Luther King Jr.
and Malcolm X and the revolutionary lives that they lived is by
Peniel E. Joseph. It's called The Sword in the Shield. They actually did a
documentary about it too. But it's. It's called The Sword in the Shield. They actually did a documentary about it too,
but it's a fantastic book.
The girls in the video was saying
it probably would have been Malcolm X
because he was more of like a street, like outside.
I don't know, once again, I'm not here to talk.
Clearly none of these people know anything
about Martin Luther King Jr.
But they said Martin Luther King, nevermind.
Yep, be quiet.
Read the book The Sword in the Shield.
You up there telling stories.
The revolutionary lives of Malcolm X of Martin Luther King Jr.
That is some wild content to create on Martin Luther King Day.
That's the best y'all can come up with. Who's the best cripple?
Shout out to Big Homie Kodak.
And then I hate that your mind even thinks about who would be the best.
I can't believe Envy was about to go into story details. He ain't learned his lesson yet.
I'll just take what I heard.
Neil E. Joseph, The Sword and the Shield, The Revolutionary Lives of Malcolm X and Martin
Luther King Jr. came out in 2020. You should go get it, read it. It's a great book. They
did a documentary about it too.
Okay. All right. Well, that is Jess with The Mess with Law and the Rose. So now when we
come back, we got front page news and then Anita Copac will be joining us. Her new book The Wind on Her Tongue is out right now. Keep
it locked. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning.
You're checking out The Breakfast Club.
Good morning everybody. It's DJ Envy, Jess Hilarious, Charlamagne the Guy. We are The
Breakfast Club. Lauren LaRosa filling in for Jess. So let's get in some front page news.
Now let me salute to the New York Yankees own C.C. Sabathia. He's a first time ballot Hall of Famer.
He was inducted yesterday.
So congratulations to C.C.
Sabathia.
That's pretty big.
Now what else we got Morgan?
Former Vice President Kamala Harris left the nation's capital and went straight to visit
Southern California where she surveyed the Eaton Fire Burn Zone in Altadena.
Harris and former second gentleman Doug Emhoff
spoke with fire victims at a repair shop
hosting a World Central kitchen site.
The couple met with firefighters at a fire station 12
and a fire station to respond to the Eaton fire
and thank them for their service.
Harris added context to her visit,
saying the home she shares with the second gentleman
was in a mandatory evacuation
zone due to the Palisades fire. However, they were one of the lucky ones. Now Los Angeles Mayor
Karen Bass, she's also taking steps to expedite debris cleanup. Let's hear more of those comments
from those officials out west, VP Harris and LA Mayor Karen Bass. We are some of the lucky ones.
Our home is still standing. We wanted
to come out and in particular to this extraordinary community and just let people know that we
see them and that they are cared for. I signed an executive order to expedite debris removal
slash regulations preventing swift rebuilding and establishing a framework to secure additional regulatory
relief and resources.
Salute to Kamala Harris, you know what I'm saying?
She's a public servant to the heart, but I want her to go get some rest.
I really do.
I'm not even joking.
No, she should if she wants to, but-
Yeah, she did that because she wanted to.
She don't gotta do that.
She don't have no duties.
Like, she's not-
So now she's good.
She don't have to do anything if she doesn't want to.
No! I think official. No, she should take a vacation to Char She don't have to do anything if she doesn't want to know.
She should take a vacation to Charlemagne's point.
Absolutely go back to work.
Go get some rest Kamala.
We appreciate you.
That's absolutely we appreciate you.
We appreciate how you you know, rose to the occasion, you know when Biden stepped out
way too late, but you know, go get some rest.
All right.
So switching gears more than 15 Democratic attorneys generals are suing to block President Trump's executive order that aims to end birthright citizenship.
Now Trump signed the executive order after being sworn into office on Monday.
The lawsuit argues the executive order violates the 14th Amendment that grants citizenship to all children born in the U.S.
despite where their parents may have come from.
Attorneys generals opposing the executive order includes those from New York, New Jersey, California, Massachusetts, Arizona.
Civil rights groups also challenged the executive order shortly after Trump signed it.
Now, New Jersey Attorney General Matthew Plotkin says the move is unconstitutional, it would harm children, and they're prepared to defend birthright citizenship in the state of New Jersey. Now he said the 14th Amendment clearly states, again, as I mentioned before, that the citizenship
of children born in the U.S. doesn't depend on that of their parents and that the country
has followed this basic rule for more than 150 years.
Let's hear more from A.G.
Plattkin.
The executive order renders many children born on American soil without citizenship,
creating for the first time a class of American-born children
whose health and well-being are threatened by their own government.
It's so that a president, Congress, the majority cannot simply change a right on a win.
This is a right that was codified in one of the most important amendments ever codified
in our nation's nearly two and a half century history.
Any thoughts on that you guys? You guys know some friends that got some babies or
you know maybe you know some friends. I mean I have friends who were born here and then
you know their parents were from other places. What are your thoughts on it? I mean I know a
lot of people especially being in New York and in the Caribbean culture that envy right there.
I am not Dominican. Both my parents were born here.
And their parents are here.
All y'all from the Caribbean, Masa, Steinberg.
Salute to all my Caribbean people.
You better stop saying that for Trump.
Really, like, take a look.
Would that be crazy if they deport me?
Hilarious.
No, that wouldn't be funny.
And I gotta prove, I gotta get my birth certificate.
Especially if they do it here.
We don't need another situation of anything up here with you.
If they come here to do it, oh my God.
Jesus Christ. I would be in tears.
I'm sure somebody's reporting me right now. DJ Envy, Rashawn, KC, Vasquez or whatever
they gonna try to call me and they gonna say ice. And they're gonna send you to the wrong
island because Dominican Republic is not Dominica. Whoever called to report Envy they're gonna
be like is this Mr. McKelvey again.
Oh my gosh. So San Diego Democratic
Congresswoman Sarah Jacobs,
she's taking aim at the executive
order President Trump signed that
has targeted towards the border.
Jacobs says this will not only hurt
and frighten the Latino
communities, but it could also put
a dent in San Diego's and Tijuana's
border crossing business.
Jacobs, she addressed the Democratic, she also addressed the Democratic Party's loss due to communities, but it could also put a dent in San Diego's and Tijuana's border crossing business.
Jacobs, she addressed the Democratic, she also addressed the Democratic's parties lost
due to a lack of clear messaging.
Let's hear more from San Diego Democratic Congresswoman Sarah Jacobs.
A lot of what he's trying to do in particular, getting rid of the CBP one app, sending the
military to the border, designating the cartels as foreign terrorist organizations is actually
going to make the border less orderly. I think a lot of my colleagues really were
so focused on unemployment that they missed that even though unemployment is
low and people had jobs they couldn't afford the basics of living with jobs
and I think that's something we as Democrats took too long to recognize.
Yeah I mean that's what that's the sentiment that you continue to echo
Charlemagne. Meanwhile the Trump administration says it is already taking some illegal migrants into custody for
deportation. Dozens of people have already been arrested after being accused of running a street
gang from prison with ties to a Mexican mafia. This is also in San Diego. County District Attorney
Summer Stephen says one of the gang leaders was a death row inmate from National City who was
convicted of killing three people but moved to general population after California
paused the death penalty.
Let's hear more from San Diego County DA Summer Steven.
There is the largest prison gang that's been around for 50 years is the Mexican mafia or
referred to as Emmy and that Mexican mafia shot callers,
they basically give orders from prison.
They were taxing businesses,
both legitimate and illegitimate businesses
like the old style mafia committing murder,
exploding Molotov cocktails
and the businesses that don't respond
to their call for taxes. Yeah, so I guess we'll see more of those type of roundups. But yeah, it's already underway.
And like you said, they're looking to surprise people. So but that's your front page news.

Now when we come back, Anita Copac will be joining us.
Her new book, The Wind on Her Tongue is out now and we'll talk to her next at the Breakfast
Club.
Good morning.
The Breakfast Club.
Morning everybody.
It's DJ Envy, Jess Hilarious, Charlamagne Naga, we are The Breakfast Club,
Lauren LaRosa filling in for Jess and we got a special guest in the building.
Yes indeed.
He's back with a new book out right now, The Wind on Her Tongue.
Ladies and gentlemen, Anita Kopak.
Welcome.
Thank you, thank you.
It is so awesome to be back here.
That's right, book two of The Daughters of Three Waters trilogy. Yes, yes, yes. Tell us what Wind on Her Tongue is all about.
So, The Wind on Her Tongue is about Oya, who is the daughter of Yemeya,
whom our first novel, Shallow Waters, is about Yemeya. And so, Oya is her daughter. And not only
in my stories, but in the ancient parables and
in the the religion of the Yoruba people the Ifa. And so Oya is the goddess of the
wind and storms and so many other things but I think one of the things that
mainstream might know her as like Storm the character in X-Men. She is kind of fashioned after Oya.
So Oya can like change the weather and bring... So this year which is 2025 is a
number nine year. That's right. Which is Oya's number. Yes. The end right? This is the end.
This is when there's a lot of transformation, things are moving fast and we can tell as
soon as 2025 started, right?
Like what this year is.
And so this is really the energy of Oya.
And that was not on purpose that this book was coming out on a year nine.
So in the opening of the book, it's not like the first chapter, I don't know if it's the
forward or the note, but you talk about how like in black communities, we're not really allowed to talk
about these like folk lords that other communities and other ethnicities are able to talk about.
And it made me think about how like with your grandma, even my grandma, certain things she's
like, turn that off. That's demonic or that's not God. But then they have certain things that they
lean into. How do you have those conversations with your family because you're putting this
on the forefront and I'm sure some of your family is like, girl, what are you doing?
Absolutely. And the thing is, is that I've had these conversations like way earlier from
the beginning because I would be like, well, what do you mean? Like we can't learn about
our history. We can't learn about our like gods and goddesses, our parables, right? Our stories.
Why is it demonic? Who said it's demonic? We know who said it's demonic, right? And
so it's like we've, I've definitely-
You mean white people?
White people, yeah. Exactly.
My aunts be saying it, but they got it from somewhere.
But they got it from somewhere, right? They got it from somewhere because it's like, it's
where our ancestors are from. It's us. It's like who we are. And so even if you're not
going to practice the religion, you know, like, it's like, oh, but can't we know our
history? Like, why is it demonic to know our history, to know the stories? And they know
them. Like, if you think of like some of the practice, the who do practices, practices,
it's like, in our families, like, you know, if you're going to beginning of the year,
you want to have black eyed peas, you know, like exactly. And so it's like we're doing
it. But there's just that that fine line. But I think more and more people are waking
up because it's in us. It's in us. And like it a part of it is our power, remembering
our power, remembering who we are
And so there's not really any stopping we can burn books. We can do whatever it is
You it's inside of us. It's inside of us and at some point some of us are gonna remember some of us are gonna write it down
Right and who knows who's gonna be inspired by this book right to create more things and remember more things
So what made you dive into all of this? I know you were here before you briefly explained
But for people that that it's the first time hearing what made you dive into this part of it
so to me I felt like yemea like dove into me because I was
I would say curious but not like I wasn't I wasn't practicing the religion or anything. But
I had a lot of friends who were and someone had told me that Yemeya watched over our ancestors as
they came over on the slave ships. And I was just like, we had a black mermaid like watching over
us watching over the souls that jumped off. I was like, what is this? I was like,, what? We had a black mermaid watching over us, watching over the souls that jumped off.
I was like, what is this?
I was like, I don't know these stories.
And I'm a curious person.
So I was like, I wanna learn about this.
And so as I was diving in, I just felt so connected.
The more and more I learned, the more I felt like I woke up,
the more I felt like I was going home.
And I was like, what is this? And so,
at some point, I decided to, you know, write the book. And as I was writing the book, to me,
it felt like for Shallow Waters, it felt like Yemea was sitting at the edge of the bed telling
me the story. And, and so there were things that I had to look up after to make sure that, you know, these
are both historical fiction.
And so the history part, I definitely had to like look up, make sure that it all made
sense.
And of course, you know, the publishers, they helped me with that as well too, to keep me
on point.
But I would say I just felt such a calling to it.
And then what was interesting was when shallow waters came out
African ancestry got a hold of me and they're like do you want to see like where your ancestry is from?
I was like, yeah, actually that would be kind of dope and it is it's Yoruba and Hausa
And so I was like, oh it's because it was me. Got you. That's why I felt so connected.
You know, you wrote an article for People magazine,
break it down to parallels between Wicked's Elphaba.
How do you pronounce her name?
Elphaba.
Elphaba?
Yes.
And Oye, and how they defy the gravity of social norms
and expectations.
Break that down.
So when I watched Wicked and I saw Elphaba's character,
I was like, oh, this is Oya, right?
Like, how nobody understands her, how when she gets mad, this power comes out of her,
she doesn't understand the power, and then someone else has to understand it first, you
know, help her to like, hone it.
And there were so many things how she just stood up against societal norms, right?
And was able to be herself.
And she did have to go through her own journey and different relationships in
order to do that. So Oya is,
is very similar where she has this power within her of the storm and gathering
up, right? The energy of the nature and all of these things.
And in the beginning, it just happens when she's mad, right?
And I don't want to tell the story,
but she learns about herself and about her powers.
And what was really cool about what I found out
after I wrote that article is that who Elphaba's character is
fashioned after, which is Matilda Jocelyn Gage, that's Tilly
in Shallow Waters. That's Matilda Jocelyn Gage. Like when I was doing like the research
and everything and I was like, I like this woman. Like she was a white woman. She was
a suffragette. She fought for black and indigenous rights. She fought for even child slavery as far as like trafficking
back then. She did so many things and I was like I like this woman so I made her
Tilly and she that's who Alphaba is fashion. I had no idea.
Now you talk about the 16 truths. Break that down a little bit.
Oh, oh, listen. Okay, I put that onto my Instagram
because I don't know everything about Ifa, right?
I know like one of the truths that is very important
is know thyself, right?
Like really knowing yourself.
So the Orishas are like the energies
that represent the different, the natural forces in the world.
So this is,
she's a storm weather, Yamaya was the ocean, right? So they're not necessarily gods and
goddesses. We just say that for the purpose here, right? So they're more like spirits.
And so even before you really know who's on your head, that's what they will say, who's
on your head, like what Orisha rules you
You have to know yourself and so really connecting to yourself and your ancestors and what you were born for
That you know to me would be one of like the most important truth in Eva
All right, we got more with Anita Copac when we come back. Don't move. It's the Breakfast Club. Good morning
Morning, everybody is DJ envy Jess hilarious Charlamagne the guy we are The Breakfast Club. Good morning. Morning everybody, it's DJ Envy, Jess Hilarious,
Charlamagne the guide.
We are The Breakfast Club.
Lauren LaRosa filling in for Jess,
and we're still kicking it with Anita Copac.
Her new book, The Wind on Her Tongue, is out right now.
Charlamagne, I want you to go deeper into who Oye is, right?
Because you dedicate the book to a lot of your friends
who have experienced, you know,
stillborn births and miscarriages.
And Oye is an African goddess who watches over women
who have had stillborns and miscarriages.
So can you respond on that a little bit?
Yes, that just gave me chills because to know
that there is an energy or a goddess out there
that is watching over women who have lost children.
So I've told you about my time when I went to Peru and I did ayahuasca and San Pedro,
right? And so when I did San Pedro, my ancestors came to me.
What's San Pedro?
So San Pedro is, I believe it's a cactus and it's a drug.
Plant-based medicine.
Plant-based medicine.
I guess. Plant-based medicine.
Plant-based medicine.
Plant medicine.
Plant medicine.
And so you go into this space, like you just get deeper in touch with the energies around.
To me, it felt like I was more in touch with the invisible energies that are around.
And so my ancestors came to me and they said, what is happening right now is that so many of us are dealing with the loss of children,
whether it was us or our ancestors down the line who had lost children, lost children through
death, through being taken away during slavery. So many people are suffering from that,
that we're trying to hold on to everything. So that's why people have clutter. That's why people think they have to keep things and like, as if we can own anything
ever. Right? And so that's what the ancestors told me. And so then when I found out that
Oya watches over women who had lost babies in any form, right? Like the stillbirths, miscarriages, even abortions, right? Like,
it's like you've lost a child. And she helps with the healing and she helps with, you know,
getting us, because she is the goddess of the storm, she's the goddess of the storm she's the goddess of transformation so she moves
things around so that if there is a healing like that that needs to happen
because that's such a deep wound she comes and she blows away so that you can
heal it's crazy because in your writing a lot of times I can relate it to things
like how you talked about like the black eyed peas and the fried chicken and I'm
like oh yeah that's what they were doing but with that I couldn't relate it to things like how you talked about like the black eyed peas and the fried chicken and I'm like oh yeah that's what they were doing but with that I couldn't
relate it to anything and I'm like I don't think I've ever had a conversation in my family
just about what happens if you have a miscarriage and how you feel. I don't even know I'm sure
it has happened but I don't know any close family members that have ever talked to me
about it. Yeah because people don't talk about it and they definitely have right like someone
has it's in all of our families,
right? If it hasn't happened to you, it's like happened to someone who's close to you.
And it's a lot of times people just go through it in silence and go to work, right? In a couple
days and not, you know, like not be able to deal with it. And we know that if we hide things away, they just keep growing and growing and growing.
And so it's so important to have a place and a way to heal from these things. And I'm also a spiritual psychologist.
I do deal with people in that way as far as guiding people through trauma and things like that. I do it with the Goddess Wisdom Council. We have a retreat that's coming up in Costa Rica.
So a lot of times I work with women
who have experienced some form of sexual trauma.
That's one of my things that I work with a lot.
And what is interesting with that too
is that it's not always directly.
Like a woman can be like, oh my gosh,
I don't remember anything happening to me. But I noticed
the way I act it's as if something happened. So it could
be something that she doesn't remember, or it could be
something that happened in her family line. Because if it did
happen to her grandmother, right, like she's passing it
down, like what's inside of us is what was in our ancestors. So
here's you know,
can you break down the parallels that you make with Oya in the
black woman trope angry black woman and then you talk about
duality too because you talk about how like the hurricanes
are like so strong and people hate them. But then after
sometimes they reveal beautiful things people come together to
get through them.
Yes, yes. So that was actually one of the things that came up
for me with Oya a lot because I was actually kind of afraid at first to write about
her because I was like oh Oya scares me a little bit she's a beast she's an unbeatable warrior
like that's who she is she's an unbeatable warrior like like don't with her and I was like a little
scared to write about Oya and then when I started started learning about her and writing about her and listening to her,
I was like, oh, it's like the angry black woman,
people being afraid of the angry black woman.
I was like, she's not angry, she's just powerful.
And just because you can't handle it, right?
Just because I couldn't handle it, right?
From what I thought about her, it was like,
no, she is just powerful.
And I think it's that misunderstanding.
People misunderstand that.
Like a black person, a black woman is just
saying what she needs, oh, she's angry, right?
She's just telling people that she doesn't like something,
oh, she's angry.
And we know other people say that they don't like things
all the time.
Yeah, that's how.
White people, especially white men.
Exactly.
Do you think that these goddesses possess you when you're writing?
Like, are they like guiding you?
Like, hey, I need you to tell this story about me.
So I got to tell you something because yes, I had an experience like that.
So I didn't necessarily feel like that.
So with Yemaya, I felt like she was sitting at the edge of my bed, right?
Telling me. With Oya, I didn't feel like I was possessed, but at the end when I
finished writing, after I wrote the last word, I was like, let me go
downstairs. I put on some music and I started dancing and all of a sudden I
just started bawling, crying and it felt like she was coming out of me. Like it
was just like, and I don't know where these tears
were coming from. It was just like,
and I was just like, Oh, my gosh, was she I didn't, I it
didn't feel like it.
I don't know. I don't know what it feels like to be possessed.
But it didn't feel like it in that way. But it did feel like I
was definitely guided. She was telling me the story. She was
telling me who needed. She was telling me
who needed to be in it. You know, some of the characters I love to work with, with historical
figures. So like Marie Laveau and Mary Ellen Pleasant. So Ellen is named Ellen. Mary Ellen
Pleasant is Ellen in the book because sometimes she was people called her Ellen or Mammy Pleasant.
But anyway, when I was looking up Mary Ellen Pleasant,
I was like, who is this woman?
How come I don't know about her?
Before Madam CJ Walker, she was the first self-made millionaire
woman.
And this is not just black women.
It's women.
She's the first one before Madam CJ Walker.
And I was like, how come I didn't learn about her?
Well, it's because she was a voodoo queen.
So they don't want to teach that in school.
She was also a madam.
That's not how she made like most of her money.
But she co-founded Bank of California, which is now Wells Fargo.
She's did so many things, invested in like in gold, silver, a lot of real estate. And the thing is, while she was
doing this, because of the time, she was pretending that she was a mammy. So she was pretending
that she was the help, right? So she would dress up like the help. She had a 30 room
mansion. When people came by, she would pretend she was the help. And then she would like
serve though
the white men would be talking about the investments they're making and she would
take that and go do her inside training training she was like she was like the
spook who sat by the door yeah yeah we got more with Anita Copac when we come
back it's the Breakfast Club good morning morning everybody is DJ envy Jess
Hilarious Charlamagne the guy we are the Breakfast Club Lauren LaRosa filling in for Jess, and we're still kicking with Anita Kopak.

When I read Shallow Waters four or five years ago, whenever it was, I didn't know it was going to end up being a trilogy. Did you know that?
I didn't know either. But listen, when people kept going, it's a trilogy, and I was like, no, no, it's done. The story finished.
It's done.
Oh, so people said that to you?
People, so many people, they're like, it's a trilogy.
It's a trilogy.
Why? I wonder why a trilogy? I wonder why.
I don't know.
Why doesn't it keep going on?
So, well, the daughter of three waters.
Let me tell you where that comes from.
Because in Cuba, usually you have...

They have one thing in Cuba where if it feels like you have yemea and ocean
They'll say oh, that's a daughter of two waters because you can have that in Cuba everywhere else
They don't really have that and so I was like, oh well Oya feels like water for me too
so that's why I made that up, Daughter of Three Waters.
So do you know what the third installment is gonna be about?
I do.
Oh okay, so it already came to you.
I do.
Are you gonna share it or not yet?
Most people probably will figure out that it is Oshoon, so it will be Oshoon and I do have the story but...
Is Oshoon sitting on the edge of your bed or?
She is!
She is!
Wait, okay, wait, I'm trying to think if I should be sharing this yet.
Probably not.
Okay, let's focus on the wind on our tongue then.
It's out right now.
You said something in your dedication that I found interesting too.
You said, you had your mom, dad and sisters for putting up with you as a child.
Then you shouted out your children for putting up with you as
an adult. Is there anything from your childhood that you have bought with you
into adulthood that made you say that? I can't imagine you were not like this as a child.
I was definitely like this as a child. I mean I was very introverted though.
I was quiet but I was very much in my own world, like in this magical world all the time.
And for my kids, I'm kind of more like one of the kids.
It's not necessarily how I thought I would adult.
I thought I was going to be a little bit more strict.
My mom, she's amazing, but she was definitely strict with us as well.
Mom, I love you.
She's amazing. But, you know, I love you. She's amazing.
But, you know, I couldn't f*** around.
I thought I was going to be like that.
And you know, I tried to be strict for one second and to see like, like my kid, the way
they responded to it.
I was like, no, they don't take you seriously.
This is no, they don't.
Are they artists as well?
Like they are.
Well, my two girls are.
And then my son is math, science.
Yeah.
And my oldest one, Sadie, she's, she's 20.
She's at NYU.
She's like doing film and then Tila is a senior in high school and really into singing.
She's actually, she is writing the songs for Shallow Waters, the musical.
Wow.
And I like, she came in, you know, I was like, she's a 17 year old.
I was like, okay, yeah, she's like, I have a song that I want to sing to you.
I had chills.
I was like, oh, let's do it.
Lin-Manuel, where are you?
So you want Shallow Waters to be a musical?
Yo!
When she sang the things, I was like, yo, yo, you don't even know.
I was like, okay, we're even know I was like okay we're
doing this let me let me find Lin-Manuel so so she's into like the arts and then
my son Mayan is math science he's he told me he can't imagine a world where
he's not figuring something out like math wise so they're all like parts of
me but you know it's interesting because when you talk about
these books being filmed, if you've ever read Shallow Waters,
if you read The Wind on her tongue,
you're going to feel like you're watching a motion picture.
That's how much this stuff pops out on the page.
So I know that's the next evolution of these stories.
They're going to be on the big screen or the small screen.
They're going to be on the screen.
Yeah.
Going back real quick to something you said about voodoo
What point in the world did that switch cuz like even when you're talking about it?
I'm like, ooh, I'm saying his words so much as like a no-no. Yeah, especially around like your older. Oh, yeah
When did it switch from like these people were healers roots to this is bad stay away from it
You're possessed and you can't watch scary movies. Like, when did that switch? So that switched all during slavery, when the Africans were enslaved.
So they needed to keep us away from our religions, they needed to keep us away from our spirituality,
from our language.
And so in order to do that, they demonized it.
And not only that, if you practice it, a lot of people were killed or beaten.
And so all of these things were, I guess, beaten into us.
And then there was a point where the fact that it survived, what you resist persists.
You can't beat out of people.
It just doesn't work.
Like the more you try to do that,
the more the person becomes stronger in that.
And so it's like these spirituality, the religion,
all of these things survived these times.
And a lot of times they kind of hit it behind Catholicism
because Catholicism works with saints, right?
And so each candle, right, like would be a certain saint, but they'd be like, oh yeah,
but this is actually Yemaya behind this saint.
And so they were able to work with their religion through Catholicism.
All right.
Well, the new book, The Wind on Her Tongue is out right now.
That's right.
Make sure you pick it up.
It's available via Black Privilege.
Simon & Schuster Publishing Man and you know, Anita,
how do you feel for your second book?
You know, you wrote Shallow Waters.
How does it feel to have another book published?
It feels so good.

Like, the fact that you saw me, you recognized me,
you recognized the work, you recognized the words that needed to be out there, the stories that you saw me, you recognize me, you recognize the work, you
recognize the words that needed to be out there, the stories that needed to be out there.
I feel so grateful that I'm able to get these stories out into the public. And I would say
that's how I feel. Deep, deep gratitude. Well, if you're looking for some escapism rooted in some realism,
the window in her tongue by Anita Kopatch is available right now,

This is Nita Copax, Breakfast Club, good morning.
Morning everybody, it's DJ Envy, Jess Hilarious, Charlamagne the guy, we are the Breakfast Club.
Let's get to Jess with the mess with Lauren LaRosa.
The news is real, whether it's Jess Hilarious, Jessica Robin Moore, Jess don't do no lying.
She don't spare nobody. All right guys in breaking news my wife star Natalie did not Oh, is currently missing.
This comes after she was listed as a no show for two flights home. She was leaving Vegas.
So background of the story, my wife star was in Vegas. And right now she is the subject
of a missing persons report. After she didn't get on those two flights. Now law enforcement sources are saying that
there was a report filed for Natalie, best known from her appearing on season five of
My Wives. This says this morning in Las Vegas that was yesterday. So yesterday, the missing
person's report was filed because she didn't get on those two flights. Now that his family
is very concerned at this point. They spoke to cops in Philadelphia, where she also visited earlier this month.
And they're basically just at this point trying to figure out what's going on.
Natalie's mother, Denise, told an outlet, told TMZ that she spoke to Natalie seven
days ago.
She actually had her own FaceTime.
Denise, Natalie's mom says, during the brief conversation, Natalie rushed off the phone,
didn't clarify where she was or who she was with, just telling her mom that she had to
go.
Natalie said, Natalie's mom is saying that it's unclear if her daughter was with anybody
and that she just seemed a little bit nervous and distressed after the brief phone call.
And Denise is saying that the conversation left her very concerned and she tried to call
her daughter back on both of her cell phones, but neither were working at the time.
And she's been trying to get in contact with her over the last few days, which prompted
her to contact police in Philly.
I guess that's because along the lines of like where her flight would have been traveling.
And according to Natalie's mom, the last update she received was from one of Natalie's friends,
a guy named Ben, who allegedly told her on Monday that the My Wife star was in Las Vegas
and had reached out to him for help getting home on a flight
now
She was flying back to Florida so we I reached out to Renee Graziana. Yeah, who's an ex my wife from my wife
Yes, you know to Renee. Yes, I reached out to her and she also said that she spoke to Natalie on the 14th
She said that when she spoke to Natalie on the 14th Natalie was distressed
She said that she was in Las Vegas, but she told Renee that she was not comfortable
and that she asked for me to reach out to some people. She then later that day caught
Natalie back and she and Natalie told her, Hey, one of my friends got me. They're going
to take care of my flight home. She was flying back to Florida. The friend that Renee is
referencing, I'm assuming it's a guy named Ben who Natalie's mom is saying helps her with the flight. So Renee says, then she took some days because she was sick.
She then spoke to Natalie again after two o'clock on the 17th. And Natalie told her, hey, I'm headed
home, but she didn't sound happy. She sounded still very distressed, very uncomfortable,
wasn't like her normal self. So now at this point, Renee and a lot of other
of Natalie's friends along with her family are panicking.
They're getting together, Renee told me
that they actually were on the phone,
her, Claudia Jordan and a couple other ladies
were on the phone for some hours
over these last couple days, just trying to piece together
the last time people have talked to her,
what she was saying, and they don't know
who she was with either.
But Renee told me that she does believe
that Natalie was by herself, and when I asked
why was she even in Vegas, because I don't see that in any reports, she's saying
that she does a lot of work with boxing and different appearances. So maybe that's why
she was there.
Are the police doing their job? Are they investigating?
The police are investigating as well. And from what I was told, they're actually looking
at like hotel camera footage and things of that nature. So just praying for a safe return
of Natalie. It is. I can't imagine being a parent and getting that phone call.
No, not at all.
And I tell everybody, and I'm not anybody
that's signed to the app or anything like that,
but I use Life360, which you can tell you
where your phone is at all times.
You know what I mean?
So I always say put that on your app,
put that on your wife's app, your husband's app,
your kid's app, so that way you can get
kind of like a timeline.
Of course you won't know everything, but you can get kind of like a timeline. Of course you won't know everything,
but you can get kind of a thorough timeline
of all the things that happen.
Very scary, praying for the best.
It tells you where they are, their last locations,
what area they're close to.
Yep.
It tells you what time, even if you turn your phone off,
it tells you when you turned your phone off,
how fast you were going, if you were in a vehicle,
in a car, and that app is totally free.
Like I said, I use it with my kids all the time but gives me kind of like a
little sense of calmness when my kids out. How many people out there who cheat who use
Life360 like do you do that type of gamble with your life? Do you download
Life360 knowing you're out there cheating? If somebody cheats they definitely not use it. I'm just asking because this is crazy people out there. I was going to say it depends because I know people with trackers on their car who know the trackers are there and they still get busy and then my friends be having some risk because don't play with my friends
I do know some person that when he does go out he puts his phone at the club like in the bushes by the club
So you just always never mind if you gotta do all that you should not be in a relationship
Nevermind you gonna snitch on somebody and then say I said never mind
I stopped. I stopped. I took it back
He's the son of a cop.
Okay, never forget that.
Well, speaking of people that be talking, Drake.
Jesus.
So Drake, always in the girlie's mouth.
Drake actually, you guys remember there's been that whole conversation about Drake and
SZA and what they used to do, whether they were gathered in Red or not, because he mentioned
her in the song.
Well, SZA was on Hot Ones, she was with Keke Palmer and Issa Rae.
And you know, they ask you questions
and you gotta answer or you gotta eat the really hot chicken.
So they asked her about Drake.
Let's take a listen.
Is Drake a good kisser?
Ho!
That's why I said f*** you in the van.
Ho ho ho!
I like you!
I knew you were gonna do something that was so...
We have to gag him!
He's not gonna answer!
He must have been terrible. She did! She answered.
Was he good? Kiss her?
We were children!
We were children.
That was the sound of lies.
2009, we were children.
Real s***.
I mean, it's a simple good or not good.
Yeah, it's really easy.
And the fact that you don't want to say one is very telling.
Y'all try to double-team me into guilt because you know if I'm affected by it. It's really easy, and the fact that you don't want to say one is very telling.
You're trying to double-team me into guilt because you know I'm affected by it?
I'm affected by it is everything.
Why we didn't know you was married, Issa?
That's true.
The fuck is that?
And where did he come from?
Huh? You be kissing and shitting?
This was a good Hot Ones episode, okay? They got into some things, but to say we was young, we was 19, to me that sounds like she's saying
he wasn't a good kisser, but I oblige.
Y'all don't wanna talk about the kissing and the love?
No, can't say I care about that one.
No?
Hello, Kobe.
Well, you know what?
We're gonna share some love in the room,
because yesterday we missed a holiday.
Y'all are gonna celebrate with me, right?
Just say yes.
No, I don't trust you.

Who you giving your donkey to man?
Whoa.
Today, four after the hour,
I will give you all
a reason to fat shame.
I bet you nobody will be
upset about the fat shaming that shall happen here
in the next four to five minutes.
We shall discuss.
Get wabba wabba ready. Here's to Breakfast Club good morning.
You're checking out the Breakfast Club.
Your execution on the donkey of the day
is something to behold.
Is it a read?
Is it a read?
He gave me donkey of the day and I deserve it.
You don't need to know.
Boy, you need to tell them.
I am.
You have the voice.
Tell them.
Tell them.
It's time for donkey of the day.
It's a read, but you're so good at it. You're trying to be a fake ass Charlemagne. You're the It's time for Donkey of the Day. It's a read but you're so good at it.
You're trying to be a fake ass Charlamagne. You're the only one Charlamagne in the world.
Damn Charlamagne. Who would give a ducky a date to name? Well sexy red, Donkey of the Day for
Wednesday January 22nd goes to a 48 year old Indiana woman named Jennifer Lee Wilson. Now
I have a confession to make. My name is Leonard McKelvey, more
commonly known to the public as Charlamagne the God, and I am a notorious, notorious fat
shamer. We know. Some might even call me a bigot toward big backs, but I swear I mean
well. Okay, I only make jokes on fat friends and family. Every other obese person I judge
from afar. But today, Jennifer Lee Wilson deserves to be fat shamed by us all.
Jennifer Lee Wilson is the reason RFK Jr. wants to ban high-fructose corn syrup.
She may become the face of federal food regulations because the last time I witnessed somebody
weaponize their weight like Jennifer Lee, it was Rikishi from the WWE.
What do you mean Uncle Charlotte she weaponized her weight?
Well, let's go to NBC 5 Chicago for the report, please.
10-year-old Dakota Stevens had a smile
that defied a difficult upbringing.
The Indiana boy spent years in foster care
and was killed, prosecutors now say,
by his new foster mother.
He did it the best that he could.
And unfortunately, you know, he fell victim to the system.
His former foster family has spent weeks pushing for charges and today Porter County prosecutors
charged Jennifer Wilson with reckless homicide. Dakota had just been placed in her Valparaiso
home when police say he ran off after a temper tantrum, even asking a neighbor to adopt him
because his parents hit him in the face. But police say Wilson found and brought him back and he tried to run again,
so she laid her entire weight on his body while calling the boy's caseworker.
Wilson told police that she laid on the boy's midsection out here in the yard to control him.
The 10-year-old weighed just 91 pounds, but Wilson, according to police,
weighs 340 pounds and sat on the child for five minutes until he stopped moving. pounds but Wilson according to police
them to adopt you Lord only knows the trauma you were experiencing in that house okay he ran from that obese orphan killer all right Dakota was 4 foot 10 and
weighed 90 pounds Jennifer Lee was 4 foot 11 and weighed 340 pounds she was
built like a Range Rover and no matter how good Dakota was eating in that
house he had to get away because that young man knew to his fate he knew what his fate would be if he stayed there he just knew
let the record show fate without the E at the end is fat and fate without the F
in the front is eight that has nothing to do with nothing I just wanted to make
that observation because Jennifer Lee Wilson is obese and I cannot believe
she's only getting six years in prison with one year suspended to be served on probation
for killing a whole human. Okay this was a fat fatality. Okay you should be a fat
felon forever. In fact the judge should say I'm giving you a year for every
pound. Yes 340 years. Okay I would have made you a fat funky felon forever.
Alright you are a large lawbreaker and you don't deserve to experience the crispy cream hot
light ever again.
Why did this wide ass wrong doer only get 6 years?
If you ask me, she's a heavyweight homicidal maniac.
This wasn't no accident.
She thought about this.
She was intentional about this.
This was a cold calculated chunky chubby ass crime.
The only time she's been more premeditated was probably at Golden Corral.
Would you like to hear more about her sentencing?
Let's go to CBS News Chicago for the report please.
A North West Indiana judge sentenced a woman in the death of her foster son.
Jennifer Lee Wilson pled guilty to reckless homicide in the April death of her foster
son, 10-year-old Dakota Lee Stevens.
Investigators say she pinned Dakota
to the ground by lying on his midsection for several minutes, causing fatal injuries. A
judge sentenced her to six years in prison.
Look at this woman. Oh shoot. She looked like the Musinex man. Does she not? Yeah. I did
some research and by research, I mean chat GPT and I asked
chat GPT has a sumo wrestler ever sat on someone and killed them and chat GPT
said there are no well documented cases of a sumo wrestler intentionally sitting
on someone to kill them so Jennifer Lee Wilson you did something that a sumo
wrestler has never done and it was your adopted son you and all your fat cells

That is the question, 800-585-1051.
Ladies, if you're wearing something revealing
and a guy is looking at your asses,
do you feel uncomfortable?
And fellas-
It depends how the person is looking.
Of course, like a person, somebody might look,
but it's a way to look.
But let's talk about it when we come back.

Morning everybody, it's DJ Envy, Jess Hilarious, Charlamagne the Guy, we are the Breakfast Club, Laura LaRosa filling in for Jess. Now, if you're just joining us, we're talking about something that actually came from
Zuckerberg at the inauguration. Jeff Beasley was there with his fiancee Lauren Sanchez, and he was caught staring at her chest,
we'll say allegedly allegedly so we're asking
805-85-105 when we were having a conversation in the room and we were saying ladies when you're wearing something revealing
Do you mind if a guy stares at your assets and fellas, you know, if a girl is wearing something revealing
Do you stare at their assets? How does it make you feel is uncomfortable? Is it not?
When you say assets that you can't hear the rest of the words sometimes.
So it sounds like...
I said assets.
I didn't say ass.
I said assets.
I don't feel away because I mean, I just know y'all gonna look.
So why would I feel away?
Like don't touch me or anything like that.
But if you're just looking, like why would I feel away?
So if you wear something revealing, right?
And you don't mind if a guy is staring at your breast or staring at your ass, it doesn't
bother you.
Don't be weird about it. But if you just happen to look, it's like, what can I do about that?
We as women happen to look a lot too.
Like if men are in sweatpants or seated a certain way, like we looking for prints, we
looking at a lot of stuff.
You said recently you seen a comedian and you were staring at his print the whole time.
Oh my God, yes.
I couldn't get, it was like whoa.
Who was that?
Dave Chappelle when he was on SNL.
He was sitting in that seat doing that monologue boy you
see the tool like he pointed at you yeah what what what you watched it two three
times I was sitting with my wife and I was watching and I'm listening to the
monologue and for whatever reason it just started like really commanding the
screen my wife I said if that is that his mic pack or something?
Like what the hell is that?
That wasn't no pocket.
No, it was a square.
No it wasn't.
My wife didn't notice that first.
And then when I said something, she was like,
maybe that's his cigarettes.
His cigarettes pack.
I don't know because I thought,
his suit pants were so tight,
I felt like you would have saw the square.
Yeah, I don't think that-
That wasn't given square.
It was on his inner thigh too much.
You really were into this.
It wasn't given print either though. You really were into this. So what did you see? No, Lauren is not
wrong. I observed the same thing. Consider this is a

Another point in the show too,
I think when he was sitting down
doing the little neighbor, immigrant neighbor skit,
there was a little situation there too.
I ain't noticed that one now.
When he was doing his monologue, I definitely,
I was like, what is that?
I thought he had a gun on him.
Listen, Nike.
What is that, wow.
Nike Tech season, we be the eyes of your side I mean it's nothing we can
do about it all right well let's go to the phone lines why you answer the
question envy you're a guy when you see a woman in revealing clothes do you know
okay and I'm making my business not to look that's right because I don't want
to be disrespectful what about you Sheldon man yeah honestly revealing
clothes don't make me look when I see a woman in revealing clothes,
she looks like she's trying too hard,
so as soon as I notice she's wearing revealing clothes,
I look straight ahead, because also, I'm a married man,
and nowadays, everybody's always taking pictures,
and I've already been caught staring at titties.
I have, there's a picture,
there's an old picture of somebody here,
I forgot who was here on Breakfast Club,
it was a porn star or something.
And she was here with all her tatas out.
You know, people were talking about JT when JT came.
When JT came.
Because remember, JT wasn't wearing a bra.
And her nipples were showing.
I didn't even notice that.
First of all, that's another thing I don't do.
JT way too young for me.
And you know, I like him old.
But there are people who are saying that,
why would she wear that if she didn't want people to look?
Because she was, I didn't see it, but.
I didn't even notice that.
Well, I will say, even if you're in a turtleneck,
if things are there, or sweatpants, as a woman,
if things are there, they're there,
and I think we don't be bothered if you're looking.
It's the overaggressive advances that come from that.
Yeah, don't stare.
You know what I mean?
The stares, or the, like, people call you
by certain body parts they looking at,
like, it's just a lot.
They call?
Yo, titties! Yo, nip nips! people call you by certain body parts they looking at like it's just a lot. Take heart.
Yo titties!
Hey fat nipples!
Yo nip nip!
Keys!
All fun and games until you're outside walking down the street.
Yo cheeks!
You never had a New York summer outside in the street I guess.
Hello, who's this?
Hi Keys.
Hey Keys, good morning.
Good morning.
How do you feel if you're wearing something revealing in a guy's looking at you?
How does it make you feel mom?
It really you feel that yes, I know you see what I know you see me
Okay, but then after that it's kind of like it gets uncomfortable. It's like wait
I don't know the sense. I don't think that he deserves to see this body part like this
I just don't feel like they deserve to see this body part. Like this is what I'm looking for.
I just don't feel like they deserve to see that.
What did you do for me to see my body part?
Like now you have that image of me forever,
for the rest of your life.
And like, I can't do anything about that.
Well, they have that image of you
because you're wearing something that they can see.
Like if you didn't- Exactly.
Yeah, exactly.
So that's why I was like, you know what? I'm not doing this. Y'all don't deserve to see nothing.
There you go.
You don't know me. Modesty is the way to go for this part.
That's right. Like Memphis Man said, you know, showing three fourths of cloth, never showing your stuff off, boo.
Or who's that? Was that Nas? That was Memphis Man.
Brittany, good morning.
Hey, shout out to Brooklyn. Brittany from Brooklyn.
Hey, Brittany from Brooklyn. What's your thoughts?
My thoughts is we know what we're doing.
When we wear really clothes, we want that attention.
However, for me, I purposely hide myself sometimes when I don't feel like being a father because it is annoying.
It is annoying. But you say...
But if somebody see that...
If they see that sexy in me while I don't want to be barber, I'm agitated. I don't like it.
It's like it.
First of all, you from Brooklyn. Revealing clothes to you in the Nike Tech Suit, you know what I mean?
ACG boots?
Showing off that moves.
Nah, not in my era. Can't stand the Tech Suit. Not a dirty Tech Suit. No, not in my era.
Okay, thank you.
800-585-1051 if you're just joining us. It comes from Zuckerberg allegedly staring at Lauren Sanchez, which is Jeff Bezos fiance the picture went viral yesterday
We're just asking ladies when wearing something revealing. Are you are do you mind if a guy stares right?
I mean because they looking at it. Oh, they're looking at your assets. Let's discuss. It's the Breakfast Club. Good morning
If you're talking about it, you know we talking about it. It's topic time.
Call 800-585-1051 to join into the discussion with the Breakfast Club.
Morning everybody, it's DJ Envy, Jess Hilarious, Charlamagne the guy.
We are the Breakfast Club.
Lauren LaRosa filling in for Jess.
If you're just joining us, we're asking 800-585-1051.
His conversation comes from Zuckerberg.
You know, he was at the inauguration and it went viral.
He was staring allegedly at Lauren Sanchez's tatas,
which is Jeff Bezos' fiance.
One of the stupidest things I saw from that picture
was somebody said,
that young lady ain't leaving them billions.
First of all, she left baseball from Zuckerberg.
It's more billions. You're still in the billionaire club. She's good either way. You're good either
way. But I think too, like what the lady just said from Brooklyn when she was like, you know what
you're doing when you wear certain stuff. Lauren St. Ches got a lot of flack for the bralette that
she had under the suit because they were saying time and place. It's inauguration. Yeah. And I
think that, you know, women do wear certain certain things certain places, depending on what you have going on
or what you want to accomplish.
And that was another thing as well too,
because it's kind of like, it's not his fault.
If like they're there, like what else is he gonna do?
She said they're there.
Nah, that was a little bit crazy though,
because he was sitting right by her
and she was by her husband.
Like he was being wild.
That was wild.
If you just look over, it's like boom, shh.
And that's the thing, the stare probably wasn't even
as long as the camera caught it. You know what I'm saying? It probably was like a little quick glance look down. And that's the thing, the stare probably wasn't even as long as the camera caught it.
You know what I'm saying?
It probably was like a little quick glance to look down.
But let's be honest, he probably stared a couple of times.
That was the time the camera caught him.
That is very true.
Hello, who's this?
Hi, this is Tronek.
Hey Tronek, talk to us, good morning.
Good morning.
First of all, I want you to know I love all of you guys.
All four of you, Lauren, Solomon, you're awesome.
Envy, you're awesome. You guys are great. Thank you. I love how you guys guys, all four of you. Lauren, Charlamagne, you're awesome. Envy, you're awesome.
You guys are great.
Thank you.
And I love how you guys talk about the polyps
because I cut the polyps here.
I'm in the lab.
You cut the polyps?
Oh, okay, okay, yeah, yeah.
When we got our colonoscopies.
Oh, oh, oh.
Yes, yes.
If there's a specimen, I take it,
I cut it through the microscope plot
so that the doctor can look at it and rule out if there's
something cancerous or anything.
Well, I didn't have any polyps at all.
I had, I think one or two polyps.
Earlier awareness is cute.
You guys are doing a great job with that.
Thank you.
Thank you.
You're welcome.
Now get into the question.
I want to say that that is incredibly rude when you're talking to someone,
you're being nice, you know, I'm very nice person.
I speak to everybody. So when I talk to people, i would like them to look at me in my face but you have some
people that their eyes move all over the place you know that's kind of rude and i don't even know
what to say to them when they say that do you i'd rather say do you say in a moment because i'll say
i'll be like you know my face is up here. I'm gonna start saying it Lauren but you know
I work around a lot of doctors and stuff and one of them used
to do that all the time on the low key and I used to be like I
didn't want to go around the talk to him. He's a boy them all
the time but you know that's awkward. Workplace is very
awkward. I see that's what I mean by no matter what you have
on y'all still will look because she's not dressing sexually in her workplace.
I'm like 12.
Exposing in her workplace, but people just look regardless.
That's why I cross-eyed people and people with lazy eyes, man,
got it good sometimes.
They don't know what they looking at.
Exactly.
Hello, who's this?
Hey, what's your thoughts, Joe?
If you not sexy with it, nobody can be looking.
You know what I mean?
Like if they not looking, then you not doing some work. So you saying you dress sexy it, nobody can be looking. You know what I mean? Like, if they're not looking, then you're not doing something right.
So you're saying you dress sexy because you want them to look?
Well, I dress sexy because I'm sexy.
Talk that talk.
I do it for me, but I know people gonna look.
And you don't mind it?
No, because they're gonna compliment me at the end of the day.
So I'm doing something, right?
Oh, they may not compliment you, because they're married.
I know I always need complimenting. They're always gonna be complimenting. You're married I'm always be complimented you right you right everybody not gonna say something but at the end of the day
they looking and I'm doing something right okay thank you June hello who's this yo this is
Fubo Flipper from Florida what's going on man here the horn
I want to shout out my daughter at home.
Deniah, she's sick right now.
My daughter's taking care of her, too.
And my hard-working, beautiful wife, Sherry, she's the love of my life, man.
I just want to let everybody in the world know that.
All right.
Now answer the question, brother, and take us off Bluetooth for speakers so we can hear
you clearly.
Answer the question.
What's your thoughts?
My thought is, is like, you know, girls are revealing clothing all the time and you know
if a guy looks it's not a bad thing because it's like looking at a car like a Rolls Royce like
oh that's nice you know what I'm saying if it's you know you don't want to drive it you just look it
catches your attention you know what I'm saying like it's something you could do about it but
there are some weirdos out there who OD you know know what I'm saying? But you know, that's just how I feel.
You gotta be respectful.
And then also, y'all even have the Mac Patty
from That's Deli in New York.
It's Mac Cheese Oxtail on a beef patty.
Damn!
No.
That sound like heart disease.
Yeah, it sound great.
Oh, nah, boy.
Yo, they right in the lower east side, man.
That's Deli Joshua, my cousin doing it, man.
Let me set one up there for y'all. Just one? Just onei Joshua my cousin doing it man. Let me set one up there
Yo, just one this we're gonna say one
I'm gonna give you three. I'm gonna give you everything on the menu. Oh my boy. Go home to work
Oh, you that an hour. I swear to God
Hold on. So what's the moral of the story? I want to ask a question to Lauren real quick though
When women wear revealing clothes who are they wearing who are they wearing it for?
Seriously, don't where you going? Okay
So like if you go out with your homegirls
to like the club or whatever, you wearing it to,
you might be trying to run into somebody, catch something.
Not like a disease or anything.
SED or nothing, we know what you mean.
We know what you mean, we know what you mean.
But if you-
So you got gonorrhea outfits, chlamydia outfits,
like you know what you want.
No, if you going on like a date with somebody
and you are at the point where you ready for whatever,
you might wear something so that type of of energy is happens on the date yeah it
depends on where you're going what you're trying to do okay you I know I
know some women who do it when they go in like car shop or no I mean things of
that nature because then the male salesman it's very easy to make them
just a lot more like lenient because they're lost in other things. Gotcha.
It just depends on what you're trying to do it for.
All right.
Well, we got Jess with the mess with Lona LaRosa coming up.
We do.
Bad baby.
She got a nose job, but people thought that it was her boyfriend putting his hands on her
again.
We're going to get into it.
So there's a lot of drama with that.
All right.
We'll get into that next.
It's the Breakfast Club.
Good morning.
The Breakfast Club.
Morning, everybody. It's DJ NV Jess Hilarious, Charlamagne the guy. We are the Breakfast Club. Good morning. The Breakfast Club. Morning everybody. It's DJ, Envy, Jess, Hilarious, Charlamagne, the guy. We are The Breakfast
Club. Let's get to Jess with the mess with Lauren LaRosa.
The news is real, whether it's Hilarious, Jessica Robin Moore, Jess don't do no lying.
She don't spare nobody.
Worldwide Jess, worldwide mess.
On The Breakfast Club. She's a coach, she's a coach. With Lauren, Lauren LaRosa. I'm back. on the breakfast club
the coaches
okay y'all so bad baby posted this photo yesterday online and when she posted this photo right
your first reactions like whoa she has two black eyes, her nose
appears to be swollen and people are like, what the heck is going on? So when she posted
this photo, fans instantly flocked to her comments and flocked to like ex fake Twitter
and began assuming that she had been abused again by her current boyfriend, the child
of her father, a guy named LV, because she had talked about
and shared video of them getting into
some sort of physical obfuscation prior, right?
She came out and said, y'all, I got a nose job.
Please relax.
She was just trying to show her update of the nose job.
The caption even said, nose jobs are not for the weak,
but of course people didn't pay attention to that.
And since she has posted this photo
and some updates on her nose job,
like she wanted to show the before and after.
She basically got a hump removed off of the top of her nose.
You get black eyes when you get a nose job?
Yeah, that happened.
As soon as I saw it, I was like,
did she get like face work done?
Because normally anytime you mess with anything
around your nose structure,
your black eyes and swelling happens.
And that's like typical,
but maybe because I used to live in LA,
I just know there's a lot of girls who do it
and it happens all the time.
But a lot of people didn't know this. So of course, even right now to this moment, they're still dragging her online.
It's domestic abuse.
Thinking it's domestic abuse, talking about how stupid she is for going back to her ex, I mean her current boyfriend.
And she actually came online to clarify in a video because she was tired of people commenting. Let's take a listen.
I'm literally 21 years old battling cancer. Who knows how long I'm going to be here for? a video because she was taught people comment always wanted to be a mom. Same way I always wanted a nose job. After I had Cali and my boobs got saggy,
after breastfeeding for two months,
I always wanted my boobs done.
Always wanted a fat.
Always wanted this, always wanted that.
I literally am 21 years old battling cancer.
If you don't think I'ma live my life to the fullest
and do everything I wanna do
without a care in the world about what you you you you or the next you
Got to say about me. I'm gonna do me like always
She's right do whatever the hell you want to do, but you ain't got explaining to me
I'm about to say I can do it anyway
And I feel it I guess but then she gets online and she does stuff like so after all this right
She then went online and posted photos of her
This is before the nose job with like bloody legs like bruised up legs and she says to make LV got her feet done
No, she actually got abused in these photos, but not by LV
allegedly
she says that she posted these because she wanted to make LV who is her current boyfriend for a little better because people keep
Trolling and now he's arguing with her for sharing her recovery journey and the fact that people are making jokes
She says he's not the only one who has put hands on me.
She alleged that she's only been with three men that she took serious
and all of them put hands on her.
Maybe she's the problem.
And these are supposed to be some of the the the scars from those situations.
It's just a little bit too much.
And maybe it is because she's 21 and she's going through something
as serious as cancer and just, you know, I don't know, but.
She got a lot going on,
definitely sending her healing energy.
Yeah, yeah, okay, so onto the next story.
So this is really big breaking news right now.
So a few years back,
Meghan Markle and Prince Harry
decided to leave the royal family.
When they decided to leave the royal family,
they claimed two major things.
It's a ton of stuff with two major things.
The first thing was that there was racist things happening the baby skin color
was asked about and mega market was being treated differently because she's
a mixed race woman a black woman her mom's black but also they said the way
that they're being treated by the paparazzi over there it was very similar
to how princess Diana was treated and Prince Harry said I'm scared that my
wife will end up how my mom did. And you guys know Prince Diana famously died in a car crash while trying to
escape paparazzi. And he also said, we're going to have children.
And they at the time, I think they had their first kid.
He didn't feel like his kid was safe because paparazzi was doing everything
they could to see the baby. They left, they went to Canada and they came here
and they moved to L.A. Right.
So there was a last minute settlement just reached today,
January 22nd between Prince Harry
and Rupert Murdoch's news group newspaper.
Now the accusations of this lawsuit
that was filed back in 2019 I believe
was that the news group newspaper spied
and they were very predatory
in the ways that they went about getting news
about Meghan Markle and Prince Harry so the settlement that they reached today
Was was set it was met only one day after trial
They did not provide an exact dollar amount of how much they reached but it had to be a pretty good payout
And the terms were that the news group such the news group people had to give a full
Apology to Prince Harry for hacking into his mobile phone
group people had to give a full apology to Prince Harry for hacking into his mobile phone,
enroaching on his life while also admitting that one of its plat- tabloids, the Sun, recruited private investigators to commit illegal acts. Right? Now this is, to me,
extremely scary because if you go that far, it's like who else knows about what we don't know
happened. And a part of the settlement, right, for them to not go further in court was, we don't have to dig into that.
So now anybody from this news group
doesn't have to get on the stand
and talk about everything else they've done,
be asked questions so that we can really find out
what else they did to get these stories.
I can't believe that they even had to prove
that these news outlets are predatory.
I mean, number one, if you got paparazzi chasing folks down,
you, Lauren, call sources every damn day.
Okay, but I don't do this.
I'm just saying.
Yeah, I don't do this.
But they were suing Nastamina.
Sure.
But that's what I'm saying.
I can't believe they even had to prove it.
Of course these news outlets are predatory.
But let me tell you, they also had, in addition, the media organization expressed remorse for
interfering in the life of the late Princess Diana, who I told you guys earlier mentioned
was killed in 1997 car crash.
So they're admitting to even being, you know what I mean,
a part of not that exact, those exact group of paparazzi,
but having somewhat something to do with the way
that she was feeling and being hunted down.
And they did have to prove it
because everybody called them liars.
I don't know if y'all remember, but they made them liars.
Yeah, I don't know how they could be called liars
when we see it, right?
You know what I'm saying?
Like we visibly see it with our own eyes.
They may not think they're predatory,
but they definitely are.
This is a bit crazy.
It's a win for Meghan Markle and Prince Harry though.
They're vindicated somewhat.
All right.
These moms not here, but at least they have this.
Well that's just with the mess with Lauren LaRosa.
