First of all, when anybody says Bay, when I'm in the room, they're talking about me. There we go.
Starting point is 00:03:55 I see Bay. Now I see Bay. You seen me? Have you ever seen me? Stop being ridiculous, Lauren. You got eyes. Good morning, everybody. I set you up for that one
Starting point is 00:04:05 Alright, I know My bad Well, good morning You're still out in DNC Well, yes The DNC convention is over But you're still here You was there from yesterday
Starting point is 00:04:14 Yeah, I was here yesterday For night four I was here for night three And night four of the DNC Last night was the main event What'd you think? The vice president spoke I thought she was silent
Starting point is 00:04:23 I thought she was silent, too I thought she did her job you know she she laid out the contrast and you know what they have done the biden harris administration and what she will do with her administration compared to trump and you know what he has done and what he will do so she she laid out a few of her poly positions policy positions she laid out her plans on how to rebuild the middle class all i ever wanted someone to tell me how they're going to put more money in our pocket and how they're going to keep us safe. And that speech laid that out for me. So, you know, I'm good.
Starting point is 00:04:49 I'm good. And it also told us, you know, for everybody that was making up rumors, told us who she was as a person, how she was raised. But you were in the building. So how did it feel? That was a little slow. It was a little slow. Oh, how did it feel?
Starting point is 00:04:58 Oh, no, no, no, no. 100,000 balloons came down. You know, people thought Beyonce was going to perform. It looked like that. That was so terrible. I heard that rumor all day yesterday. They actually said Beyonce was going to perform at Soldier Field. Where's Soldier Field?
Starting point is 00:05:13 Soldier Field is a football stadium. United Center is where they play ball and hockey, I believe. I know it's hockey. I mean, I know it's basketball. I think they play hockey there, too. But Soldier Field is where the Chicago Bears play. And they said that Beyonce was going to play at Soldier Field. Then that rumor turned to Beyonce and Taylor Swift are going to perform at Soldier Field.
Starting point is 00:05:29 Because they were saying it was a break in the schedule. And then like yesterday when I had. I mean, TMZ reported it. That's what made people believe it. We're going to get into it today, y'all. Y'all know we're going to get into it today. TMZ and Don Lemon. Give Don Lemon his credit for being stupid, too.
Starting point is 00:05:40 Come on. Well, I think it's because people trusted the source. A lot of it. Brown Girl Grinding reported it as well once TMZ broke it. And they had it exclusive. Who on. Well, I think it's because people trusted the source. A lot of it. Brown Girl Grinding reported it as well once TMZ broke it and they had it exclusive. Who was the source, Lauren?
Starting point is 00:05:50 I think the source was. The way that the story was set up, I think that it was like probably law enforcement officials. No way. Because if you read the story,
Starting point is 00:05:59 they based it on the fact that PD said that they had to beef up, you know what I mean? Because Beyonce is coming around. Y'all still listening to Diddy? Not PD, like Diddy. You stupid.
Starting point is 00:06:09 She talking about the police department. Chicago PD. I don't know who the source was, but when I read the story, that's what I took from it. So... Yeah, I didn't see it. You had to sleuth all the law enforcement. I knew it wasn't her team. They ain't...
Starting point is 00:06:20 Miss... At the event. She ain't giving out no stories like that. Hey, drop on the clues box for the Secret Service, man. I don't know. I don't know who Trump had with him on that pay-for-day, but the Secret Service that I saw at the DNC all week, them guys are
Starting point is 00:06:33 super solid. A lot of black people, a lot of black and brown in the Secret Service, too. A lot of black and brown. They look like G.I. Joe's, like stormtroopers, like big diesel-ass people. You don't want no problems with. Yes, they're protective.
Starting point is 00:06:47 No, no, no. Oh, she was with the brothers. I don't know who. It don't look like the ones in the suits and the shades that look suspicious and look like they're just there for show. These guys are ready for action. They're ready for action. Yes. And the 100,000 balloons that fell.
Starting point is 00:07:02 Yeah. With balloons everywhere. It looked like a huge beach party slash Super Bowl slash concert. And Angela Ryan kept trying to get me to take a balloon home to my daughter. I was like, why? Were they branded? Did it say stuff on it? No, it was nothing special.
Starting point is 00:07:17 Just balloons. Red, white, and blue balloons. I mean, it's the, yeah, I mean. He was going to take that balloon home. He was going to inflate it, get on a plane with it. And balloons, they were stale, too, I mean. He was going to take that balloon home. He was going to inflate it, get on a plane with it. And balloons, they were stale, too, because they were there all week. Because I got there Wednesday, and the balloons was already hanging up in the rafters. So they've been there all week.
Starting point is 00:07:33 Stale-ass balloons, hot-ass air. Your daughters wouldn't have been like, oh, my God, this is so cool. They would have been like, that's all you want. Balloons don't get stale. I forgot y'all kids is rich kids. How am I traveling with balloons to the airport? That just looks stupid. Take the air out and then put it in your bag. That's what she said. That's what Angela Ross said. I'm like, I kids is rich kids. I'm going to travel with balloons to the airport. Take the air out
Starting point is 00:07:45 and then put it in your bag. That's what she said. That's what Angela Ross said. I'm like, I'm not doing that. You can just get balloons here at Party City and blow them up
Starting point is 00:07:51 and say it came from there. It's not the same. Dumb balloons ain't been hanging out with Kamala. Dumb balloons ain't been hanging out with Kamala.
Starting point is 00:07:57 It's different. Hey, you're right, but my daughters will hang out with Kamala. Look, I said I forgot who kids I'm talking to. A little kid like me would have just had to get a balloon.
Starting point is 00:08:06 Let's get the show cracking now. I should have bought you one. You'd have been so happy. I would have. I would have hung it right here. Rub it on your new growth. Go ahead. All right.
Starting point is 00:08:18 Charlamagne was at the DNC, so he was kicking it with a bunch of people yesterday. So, we're going to talk to them. Who did you kick it with yesterday, last night? I kicked it with a lot of people. I think this're going to talk to them, right? Who did you kick it with yesterday, last night? I kicked it with a lot of people. I think this morning we're going to air Congresswoman Jasmine Crockett. Of course, we spoke to her. She spoke about her speech this week. Governor Josh Shapiro.
Starting point is 00:08:36 A young content creator, man, who I really, really dig. Young brother. He's only 12 years old. Named Noah. You know Noah, Lauren? No, I don't know Noah. Noah? Yeah, we're going to talk named Noah. You know Noah, Lauren? No, I don't know Noah. Noah, yeah, we're going to talk to Noah. And we're going to talk to a couple of the officers that were there on January 6th for the Capitol riots.
Starting point is 00:08:52 Yes. All right, we got front page news. Next is The Breakfast Club. Good morning. Morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Jess Hilarious, Charlamagne Tha Guy. We are The Breakfast Club. Laura LaRose is filling in for Jess.
Starting point is 00:09:02 And let's get in some front page news. Good morning, Morgan. Good morning. Good morning. Happy Friday from Chicago. Yes. So the Democratic National Convention is officially in the books. And last night, Vice President Kamala Harris took the stage in Chicago and officially accepted the party's nomination for president.
Starting point is 00:09:18 In her remarks, Harris touched on a range of topics. Let's hear more from the VP's speech at the DNC. On behalf of everyone whose story could only be written in the greatest nation on earth, I accept your nomination to be president of the United States of America. The path that led me here in recent weeks was no doubt unexpected, but I'm no stranger to unlikely journeys. In many ways, Donald Trump is an unserious man. But the consequences, but the consequences of putting Donald Trump back in the White House are extremely serious. He plans to create a national anti-abortion coordinator and force states to report on women's miscarriages and abortions.
Starting point is 00:10:20 Simply put, they are out of their minds i promise to be a president for all americans you can always trust me to put country above party and self yeah i love that speech i thought it was amazing i thought she she broke down every policy i thought she talked about herself it gave you insight of her life i really enjoyed it i really enjoyed that i thought i thought it was solid you know what i liked about her speeches i get tired of hearing about you know how bad trump is but she pointed to what trump has done wrong but then also pointed to what she wants to do in contrast to that so right and she made it easy to understand too yeah when i was what was crazy though i know you guys were actually there
Starting point is 00:11:05 but in between her speeches the commercials, I guess Donald Trump paid for commercials, they were nasty. So it would go from her speaking or somebody speaking in the Democratic Party about, you know, Democrats what they were going to do and then they go to commercial and it was Trump saying pretty much
Starting point is 00:11:21 F everybody. It was crazy. That's what she should do. Just like she runs her commercials on Fox News. When they're going in on her, I think that's good. I mean, there was so much going on yesterday, but the big thing, another one of the big things was the rumors were false, okay? Beyonce did not make a surprise appearance at the Democratic National Convention. Now, TMZ reported the singer would come out to support Vice President Kamala Harris on the final night.
Starting point is 00:11:44 However, about halfway through Thursday night's event, reported the singer would come out to support Vice President Kamala Harris on the final night. However, about halfway through Thursday night's event, a representative for Beyonce announced that she was never scheduled to be there. And the reports of a performance were not true. The same for Taylor Swift. I mean, there was so much speculation that Beyonce's plane had landed in Chicago. Taylor Swift's plane had landed in Chicago. And if I may just challenge everyone to just do their research and take what you heard with a grain of salt, you know, especially if it's not firsthand information and it didn't come from the source. Yes. Morgan, you're absolutely right.
Starting point is 00:12:15 I forgot about that one. I heard the rumor about Beyonce performing at Soldier Field, but then I did hear that somebody literally said Beyonce's plane landed two hours ago. That's crazy. Then somebody said, Beyonce and Taylor Swift are here. I was wondering how TMZ was going to come back because they broke that story exclusively. They updated last night. They said, to quote the great Beyonce, we got to lay our cards down, down, down. We got this one wrong. That was a good way to say it.
Starting point is 00:12:38 All the way wrong. They got it wrong. The only thing about that is there's certain places that people go and they really feel like their news is true. When somebody dies, most of the time, first place, you're going to go to TMZ, right? Yeah. Entertainment news to see if it's true. Yes. And it's sad that when you see that, it wasn't true.
Starting point is 00:12:53 It happens sometimes, man. It happens. What if you die and you don't even know you're dead and you got to wait and you check your TMZ and they tell you that you're dead? Then what? I would check my Wikipedia. You ever thought about that? I would check the Wikipedia, not the TMZ. I don't get it.
Starting point is 00:13:05 If you die, then you die. Just don't. You just do the talking. It's crazy that you're still listening. Don't engage, Laura. Don't engage. Yeah. It's wild that you're still listening.
Starting point is 00:13:12 It's front page news. I'm just trying to figure it out. In the next hour, we'll talk about what's happening on the other side. All right. Everybody else, get it off your chest. 800-585-1051. If you need to vent, phone lines are wide open. Again, 800-585-1051. Call us need to vent, phone lines are wide open. Again,
Starting point is 00:13:29 800-585-1051. Call us up now. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. The Breakfast Club. Ray, Ray, Ray. Yo, Charlemagne. Envy. What up? Are we live? This is your time to get it off your chest. I got an indoor pool, an outdoor pool. We want to hear from you on The Breakfast Club.
Starting point is 00:13:46 We can get on the phone right now. He'll tell you what it is. We live! Hello, who's this? Hey, this is Anna from Columbus, Ohio. What's up? Hey, Anna. What's happening?
Starting point is 00:13:55 Seems like you lost your voice. Good morning. Good morning. Hi, guys. I've been calling and I sent an email to I'm not on social media, but I am a
Starting point is 00:14:06 registered voter in Columbus, Ohio and I'm fired up, I'm ready to go and I want y'all to tell everybody to go out and vote, you know what I'm saying, because this ain't a game, they ain't playing with us. Who you voting for? You already know.
Starting point is 00:14:21 No I don't, that's what I'm asking, who you voting for? Kamala Duh. I'm a black woman in America. Okay. Kamala. Anissa told you how to say yesterday. Did you watch the DNC last night? Of course I did. What do you think? I think that
Starting point is 00:14:37 we have to be serious. We have to be serious in a way that we haven't been serious in decades. The Voter Rights Act continues to be chipped away by the Supreme Court. We have to be serious. Absolutely. If y'all read my email, I go into a lot of detail. You know what I'm saying?
Starting point is 00:14:59 It's hard for us to stay attentive and stay active. When they say this is the most important election, that's wrong. Every election is the most important election. You right. And how old are you, Anna? I'm 33. Okay.
Starting point is 00:15:18 Yeah, they got to stop that rhetoric, too. I hate when they say that. This is the most important election of our lifetime. They say that about every election. I do agree that this is the most consequential, though. Hello, who's this? Yo, I saw Fat Joe last night. He gonna walk up to me and touch my beard, talk about why something the time when you can rewind the time.

Starting point is 00:18:22 Jess Hilarious, Jessica Robin Moore. Jess don't do no lying. Jess don't do no lying. Don't do no lying. Hey! She don't spell nobody. Worldwide Jess, worldwide mess. On The Breakfast Club. She's a coach of shoes.
Starting point is 00:18:36 With Lauren, Lauren LaRosa. I'm back. And I got the mess. Talk to me. So, a lot of DNC talk this morning. And last night there was a lot of heavy talk on just different celebrities and different names and people from the community getting on stage in support of Kamala Harris, but also setting the record straight about a few things. One of the people I thought was really interesting that honestly, when he came out, I was like, or when I saw him on a schedule, I was like, oh, he's speaking. That was pretty smart. Her campaign dl hugley so dl hugley uh came on on stage to
Starting point is 00:19:09 apologize in front of the world for some of the comments that he had and he's done this before but he wanted to do it at the dnc as well let's take a listen i made assumptions about kamala's record and i often repeated them to a lot of people then one day kamala invited me to her house she put her hand on my shoulder and she asked me to do some research, something I had never done, something a lot of people I know had never done before. Imagine attacking someone's character without a single Google search. So I did what I should have done in the first place. I learned that she had done for us exactly what she promised to.
Starting point is 00:19:40 I believe that your apology should be as loud as your accusation, and I'm here apologizing in front of the whole damn world They used D.L. Hughley as the poster boy for all misinformation And D.L. gladly accepted the role I don't think D.L. should have accepted that all on his own Even though he did it on his own But there's a lot of people who spread a lot of misinformation He should have used a little bit more y'alls
Starting point is 00:20:04 Not just me For real A lot of misinformation. He should have used a little bit more y'alls. Yep. No. Not just me. For real. A lot of people. All of us. A lot of people, when I hear them talk about her track record as a prosecutor or whatever, they lean towards a lot of different names in the community. But I just thought that it was, you know, like, I was happy to see him come out on stage
Starting point is 00:20:20 and do that, especially at that night, because I felt like there were so many people that were tuning in because they wanted to hear like policy and all that stuff so it was good to see the um public apology and for him to admit that he he messed up he got it wrong and he already did that he did that on his radio show already so yeah but i hope it changes the way if if anybody was out there that does anything in media whether it's podcast whether it's radio whether it's tv whatever it may be to understand the power of knowing the truth because those lies could have hurt her could have hurt her campaign could hurt anybody what you mean could have they did hurt her in 2020 yeah you're right well they did um so then we had um a ton of other people came on the stage but um another group that i thought
Starting point is 00:21:00 was really interesting to see on stage and what they spoke to was the exonerated five formerly known as the central park five let's take a listen that man thinks that hate is the animating force in America it is not we have the constitutional right to vote in fact it is a human right so let us use it when I one day, I want you to say see us. One day, see us. One day, see us. When they see us, America will finally say goodbye to that hateful man. We will say what I have said after seven long years of wrongful incarceration free at last free at last free at last thank god almighty we are free at last yusef salam cory wise raymond santana and kevin richard um are the exonerated five and the point that he was making he was uh referring back to when trump had called for their execution when they were first charged with everything.
Starting point is 00:22:07 And they were basically because, you know, he's got a newspaper. Yeah, put out the newspaper. But he doubled down on that way later. So they wanted to make the point that, you know, Kamala is talking about moving forward and not going back. Trump is stuck where he where he's at. So we need to, you know, recognize that and move forward. But the most important to me as a black woman who people spell my name wrong, they call me different names that are not my name. This was one of my favorite
Starting point is 00:22:32 parts and it was also so cute because Kamala's nieces were a part of it. The only name they call you that they shouldn't call you is Lauren London LaRosa. But continue. Keep going, Lauren. I am. Kerry Washington, Olivia Pope was on stage and she set the record straight about how you say Kamala's name. Because y'all been mixing it up.
Starting point is 00:22:49 It's not that difficult. I don't understand how many people get it wrong. It's not that difficult. I didn't see chameleon. I didn't see. I think some people do it to be smart, too. But that's very annoying. Let's take a listen.
Starting point is 00:23:00 We don't have the audio? Okay. Well, basically, they wanted you to know. You don't have that audio? The audio that. basically, they wanted you to know. You don't have that audio? The audio that... Never mind. The audio's been everywhere all night. They wanted you to know that it's Kamala.
Starting point is 00:23:11 And you guys know she has the hats now, where it's like the... As a kid, I really do remember having these dreams and visions. But you just don't know what is going to come for you. Alicia Keys opens up about conquering doubt, learning to trust herself, and leaning into her dreams. I think a lot of times we are built to doubt the possibilities for ourselves. For self-preservation and protection, it was literally that step by step. And so I discovered that that is how we get where we're going. This increment of small,
Starting point is 00:23:49 determined moments. Alicia shares her wisdom on growth, gratitude, and the power of love. I forgive myself. It's okay. Like grace. Have grace with yourself.
Starting point is 00:23:59 You're trying your best and you're going to figure out the rhythm of this thing. Alicia Keys, like you've never heard her before listen to on purpose with jay shetty on the iheart radio app apple podcasts or wherever you get your podcasts hey guys i'm kate max you might know me from my popular online series the running interview show where i run with celebrities, athletes, entrepreneurs, and more. After those runs,
Starting point is 00:24:26 the conversations keep going. That's what my podcast Post Run High is all about. It's a chance to sit down with my guests and dive even deeper into their stories, their journeys, and the thoughts that arise once we've hit the pavement together. You know that rush of endorphins you feel after a great workout? Well, that's when the real magic happens. So if you love hearing real, inspiring stories from the people you know, follow, and admire, join me every week for Post Run High. It's where we take the conversation beyond the run
Starting point is 00:25:00 and get into the heart of it all. It's lighthearted, pretty crazy, and very fun. Listen to Post Run High on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. On Thanksgiving Day, 1999, a five-year-old boy floated alone in the ocean. He had lost his mother trying to reach Florida from Cuba. He looked like a little angel.
Starting point is 00:25:27 I mean, he looked so fresh. And his name, Elian Gonzalez, will make headlines everywhere. Elian Gonzalez. Elian, Elian. Elian Gonzalez. Elian, Elian. Elian Gonzalez. At the heart of the story is a young boy
Starting point is 00:25:40 and the question of who he belongs with. His father in Cuba. Mr. Gonzalez wanted to go home and he wanted to take his son with him. Or his relatives in Miami. Imagine that your mother died trying to get you to freedom. At the heart of it all is still this painful family separation. Something that as a Cuban, I know all too well.

Starting point is 00:28:02 Listen to Haunting on the iHeartRadio app apple podcasts or wherever you get your podcast mama and then the love so she had her uh two nieces come on stage who were gorgeous and Kerry Washington kind of got down like on a knee and kind of gave them the mic and they did the the crowd chant which is such a good thing to see them do because that just means people are energized and want to participate so one knee said on this side, we're going to say comma, comma. And on the other side, we're going to say la, la, la, comma, la, la, la. Yeah, it was. We don't have the audio, though.
Starting point is 00:28:33 Can somebody explain that to me? Come on. We're on air. Let's share this with our listeners. Why don't we have the audio, guys and girls? Too much inside information. So on the right side, they scream comma. Yes.
Starting point is 00:28:43 And then on the left side, they scream la. And then it was comma la. And that's how they said that's how you're supposed to pronounce her name which was very cute and i will i hope she might she drops that video anytime somebody gets it wrong because that's all the explaining she needs to do but in other news um and in explaining juvenile so yesterday and i'm actually the day before yesterday but yesterday this video started to really pick up online. Juvenile went live. He was on a plane.
Starting point is 00:29:08 He was flying from Mississippi to Dallas-Fort Worth for a show. And when he got on the plane, he had some issues. Let's take a listen. They tried to kick me off the plane, y'all. They tried to kick me off America. They tried to take me out of first class. Where are you trying to put him at? We gotta put him in coach.
Starting point is 00:29:29 Oh no. You ain't putting me in no coach, man. You ain't putting me in no coach, man. Absolutely not. I'm a celebrity. I'm telling you this is going to be repercussions. It's going to be repercussions to this. Because I'm going to get off the plane.
Starting point is 00:29:41 I'm going to get off the plane. I'm not going to let y'all disrespect me like that. I'm not going to let y'all disrespect me like that. I'm not going to let y'all choose me out of all the people on the plane and disrespect me. So I'm going to get off the plane. Out of all the people on the plane, y'all pick a celebrity. F*** American Airlines. All the money I spent with you b****s.
Starting point is 00:29:57 They're going to try to put me in coach, mother f***er. They never flew coach. F*** y'all. They was trying to make Juvvie back that ass up to coach on the 25 year anniversary of back that ass up they wanted juvie to back that ass up to coach if the flight attendant had dropped the song when they were saying that like if i was juvie i would have swung on him but so did he buy a ticket though he bought a first class ticket so basically what happened i reached out to american airlines and um sent over a statement. And what they explained was that it was something that they couldn't even control.
Starting point is 00:30:29 They had a process error where basically a smaller plane is what came in. Like the plane switched last minute. And that happens sometimes because planes are coming from different places. Things are delayed or whatever. So it was a smaller aircraft. And because it was a smaller aircraft, there's been less seats in the main cabin and in first class so there's a automated system that randomly selects people who would then have to downgrade their seat because of that and from what i was told he was one of those people so it wasn't intentionally done but they said that they did reach out to
Starting point is 00:30:59 him and apologize and that they were rectifying the situation i don't exactly know what they did to rectify it but i'll have an update soon there. They gave him more miles, I'm sure. Yeah, they probably paid for that fare. But, you know, that happens a lot. Like, if there's a storm, and like you said, a different flight you have to take and you pay for a first-class seat, they just put you in whatever seat it is,
Starting point is 00:31:17 and they usually refund your money. But they don't make you sit down first. That's the problem, because he sat down. They had to scan his ticket in there. And I think that was so frustrating, because he was already on the plane it looked like they were about to like you know his wife yeah him and his wife and his wife was saying how we're sitting next to each other and y'all didn't select my seat but you guys selected his so and that's just a big inconvenience last minute you find out something like that so i understand the frustrations
Starting point is 00:31:38 for sure but i'm so glad they didn't nobody dropped the song on the plane trying to be funny would have been crazy. All right. And hold on. I don't know if we got enough time, but Lauren was talking about the people who were at the DNC on stage. There was a lot of people at the DNC who I saw behind the scenes as well. I saw my man Yo Gotti was there. Dave Chappelle.
Starting point is 00:31:58 I saw Dave Chappelle. Tiffany Haddish. Our good friend to the room, Flame Monroe, was there. Lynn Whitfield. She was there with her fine 71 year old self. She saw me last night and she said, Charlamagne, I've always loved your head
Starting point is 00:32:11 and I melted right then and there. That mic hate to see you coming. You doing all that leaning. You need to relax. Listen, man, I'm a sucker for an older woman. You hear me? Okay. I promise you Lynn whitfield said that it's the same way somebody called him um a snack and now he think he uncle first of all one thing
Starting point is 00:32:31 about them older older older black women appreciate this this is 90s rom-com i'm 90s rom-com fine okay all right so so so so they appreciate this no all right they trying to make up for all the trauma uh that black men went through back then. Couldn't make up for it. Now they've been in therapy, so they feel like they got to nurture you. The thing about Lauren's generation, they got them new STDs that mess with their eyes. You know what I'm saying? They got that new brand of chlamydia.
Starting point is 00:32:55 That new chlamydia mess with your vision. Okay, the OGs can still see clearly. Over there looking like a pretzel stick. You need to relax. All right, guys. All right. Settle down. Settle down, guys. All right. Thank there looking like a pretzel stick. You need to relax. All right. All right, guys. All right. Settle down. Settle down, guys.
Starting point is 00:33:07 All right. Thank you for just with the mess with Laura LaRosa. Now, when we come back, Morgan will be joining us with some front page news. So don't move. It's the Breakfast Club. Good morning. Morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Jess Hilarious, Charlamagne Tha Guy.
Starting point is 00:33:21 We are the Breakfast Club. Laura LaRosa is filling in for Jess. And let's get back to some front page news. What's up, Morgan? Yeah, so former President Trump, he's reacting to Vice President Kamala Harris' speech last night at the Democratic National Convention. Let's get into the audio and hear more from Trump. She's not having success. I'm having success.
Starting point is 00:33:39 I'm doing great with the Hispanic voters. I'm doing great with black men. I'm doing great with women because. I'm doing great with women because women want safety. They want safety. I'm surprised he's up that late because that was a late one last night. So on Truth Social...
Starting point is 00:33:54 He ain't hitting the same, though. He's not. But I will say those tweets last night, hilarious, funniest he's been since he got shot at. But I do agree, he's not hitting the same. He is spiraling.
Starting point is 00:34:04 So on Truth Social, yeah, Trump posted in real time during the speech questioning why Harris hasn't already accomplished the policies she was promising. He said she's had three and a half years. She's had three and a half years and has done nothing but harm. He later went on Fox News
Starting point is 00:34:20 where he claimed Harris didn't talk about crime or how 70% of people are living in poverty, a number that the census shows is closer to 12%. Now, the Trump campaign is also teasing a special guest for the former president's rally today in Arizona. There have been reports that independent presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr. is considering dropping out of the race and endorsing Trump. So, again, talking about policies now, Harris, during her speech, she did talk about some of her policy notes.
Starting point is 00:34:50 She said ending the housing crisis, issuing middle class tax cut, restoring women's reproductive rights, passing the John Lewis Voting Rights Act, signing the bipartisan border bill, ensuring America has the strongest and lethal, most the strongest and lethal fighting force honoring the troops and getting the hostage and ceasefire deals done while also supporting our allies like Israel to defend itself. Now, meanwhile, a former Republican congressman had some choice words for Donald Trump at the DNC. Adam Kissinger of Illinois was one of only 10 Republicans who voted to impeach Trump after the January 6th riot. Of course, at the DNC on Thursday night, Kissinger endorsed Kamala Harris for president. Let's hear more from him. I've learned something about the Democratic Party and I want to let my fellow Republicans in on the secret. The Democrats are as patriotic as us.
Starting point is 00:35:42 The Republican Party is no longer conservative. It has switched its allegiance from the principles that gave it purpose to a man whose only purpose is himself. I mean, I respect it. I mean, but does that kill his political career if he had one as a Republican? It should. I don't think it should. I'm even being honest. Yeah, but to your point, yeah, I don't think they like it you know i don't think they like it but i don't i don't i don't think parties
Starting point is 00:36:12 should matter man i think you should just vote for whoever the best candidate is regardless whether you're a democrat or republican i hate these people who are just beholden to their party just because like you know if you don't yeah like what your party is currently doing during a presidential election then you know you might want to vote the other way. I don't have a problem with it. That has been a common theme also throughout the DNC is purpose over party or, you know, putting yourself a country over party is what the saying has been. Also, who took the stage? Civil rights leader Reverend Al Sharpton, North Carolina Governor Roy Cooper, Massachusetts Senator Elizabeth Warren, Arizona Senator Mark Kelly.
Starting point is 00:36:45 He also took the stage with Gabby Giffords and pop star Pink. She's the one who performed. And when it comes to sports and politics, basketball superstar Stephen Curry, he endorsed Vice President Kamala Harris in her bid for the White House. In a surprise video that played at the DNC, Curry voiced his support for Harris. Let's hear more from Steph Curry. I got to visit Kamala with my team in the White House last year. And I can tell you one thing I knew then and definitely know now. The Oval Office suits her well. This is about preserving hope and belief in our country, making sure families can be taken care of during their most precious times. Yeah, so he said he believes Harris can bring
Starting point is 00:37:22 unity back and move the country forward. Curry also said Harris will make sure that families are taken care of. Of course, he said that. And on the first night of the convention, Curry's Golden State Warriors coach, Steve Kerr, also spoke in support of Harris. Now, you know, it's always interesting when I see people like Steph Curry do that because, you know, like I said, I was talking about Kenan Thompson yesterday. Most people in that position don't want to turn off any audience or any audience right because you know steph curry sells jerseys to everybody he sells sneakers to everybody so it's always interesting to see it's always interesting to see people like him step out there and uh do that take a stance back to that jordan conversation and i don't know how true that
Starting point is 00:38:00 was when they asked jordan to uh back somebody back in the day and he says he wouldn't because he said Republicans and Democrats buy his sneakers. So, you know, that's why he never stepped into that world. So, yeah, like you said, it's dope to see courage in that. That's your front page news. Follow me on social at Morgan Media and make sure you're following more news coverage
Starting point is 00:38:17 at the Black Information Network. Download that free iHeartRadio app and visit BINnews.com. Talk to y'all. Have a great weekend. All right. Thank you, Morgan. Now, when we come back, Charlamagne was at the DNC the last couple of days, and last night he got a chance to speak to a bunch of people. Yes. I was at the DNC last night, man,
Starting point is 00:38:34 broadcasting with the Native Land Podcast. The Native Land Podcast is the first podcast, the flagship podcast off Reason Choice Media with iHeart, hosted by my good sister Angela Rye, Andrew Gillum, and Tiffany Cross. And we spoke to a lot of people yesterday, but this hour, we're going to talk to Jasmine
Starting point is 00:38:50 Crockett and two of the cops who are actually at the Capitol on January 6th, Harry Dunn and Aqualina Gonell. You know, they were getting busy. There's a viral video that shows this big dude, you know, really fighting off protesters. That was Harry Dunn. And we're going to talk to my man noah noah is a young 12 year old content creator who does a lot of content that is politically driven and we're gonna talk to him um when we come back all right so don't move it's the breakfast club good morning the breakfast club
Starting point is 00:39:19 morning everybody it's dj envy jious, Charlamagne Tha Guy. We are The Breakfast Club. Lauren LaRosa is here filling in for Jess. Now, Charlamagne was at DNC the last couple of days, and he got a chance to talk to a bunch of people, and we're going to get some of those back on. So this one right here is his conversation with Jasmine Crockett. It's The Breakfast Club.
Starting point is 00:39:40 Good morning. We are thrilled to have joining us Congresswoman Jasmine Crockett. Getting pulled in all directions. There she is. I pulled in all directions we introduced while you're walking up how are you doing sis i'm doing all right great tell us how you prepared for monday night congresswoman oh when you gave your speech there was phenomenal speech there was a lot of drama so thank you so much so i won't go into all that it took um but what i will say is that in the moments that I was supposed to be getting on stage, it's the first time I've ever gotten nervous.
Starting point is 00:40:09 Wow. So for two hours, I was actually getting physically sick. I had to take medication and everything. And so I was just nervous that I would let her down. And I did not want to let her down. And then as we are making history today, what most people don't realize is that Kamala Harris was making history for me at the same time.
Starting point is 00:40:31 There's never been a black woman freshman that has been allowed to grace the stage of the DNC ever until me. And so it was a huge honor. And at the same time, while I didn't want to to let her down i also didn't want to foreclose on opportunities for those coming behind me and i knew that there were a lot of people that were probably like ain't no way you're gonna let the wild wind do it ain't no way you're right that's the one we want to see everybody absolutely oh man and so you know uh as it relates to kind of the process i felt like they was trying to sanitize my speech a little bit. I was like, uh-uh, uh-uh. This fight's got to stay.
Starting point is 00:41:07 Well, you had more alliteration? Well, the alliteration came out at least five times. Wow. It was pulled out five times and then I put it back in. And I said, let me tell you something. This is who I am.
Starting point is 00:41:17 This is what this speech is going to be because the only reason anybody would want to see me on the stage, it ain't to see me. It's to actually hear me be me. And so it was a bit of a fight but you know i y'all know i stand my ground we appreciate you for doing that and i and and again because i stood my ground i also was nervous because then it's like well you can't mess up you can't fall on the bag yeah because you really stood so strong and and confidently in it and i am thankful that it was received seemingly in a decent way.
Starting point is 00:41:46 Well, you are far from fumbling anything, by the way, anytime I've ever heard you. And I've spoken at this convention before. I know the exact process you were talking about, the edits that get made. Yes. And the fact that you have to be literally strong and, as Angela says all the time, ten toes deep. Yeah. Or down. I do not say 10 toes deep.
Starting point is 00:42:06 I'm like, you're down. You're down. You're trying to bury me. You know what he did. How you gonna, and then you quoted me something that the whole culture said.
Starting point is 00:42:13 But guess what? I'm not gonna say 10 toes down. But guess what? I'm not in all that. So when I heard you say that, I was like, that's pretty decent. Andrew,
Starting point is 00:42:18 you're acting like a white man. I'm gonna go back on mute. Okay. He deserved that comment. He did. Guess what? Guess what? You can stay off, but I'm talking to you now on mute. He deserved that comment. He did. Guess what? Guess what? You can stay off.
Starting point is 00:42:26 But I'm talking to you now. And the point is, the point is, Congresswoman, I couldn't thank you enough. And I just want to encourage you every day of the week to continue to be that. Right? Every Congress deserves a truth seller. That's right. Thank you. Every Congress.
Starting point is 00:42:40 At least one. Can I ask a question? I, you know, we opened the show tonight with a Georgia state rep of Palestinian descent speaking about the protests and the plight that's happening. Something has made me a bit uncomfortable with this. I'm so excited and I've been so full of celebration with having a me and us poised to lead this country. And then I was sworn as we drove past protesters last night. And it just feels like this push and pull because as black women, much like the CBC, we are the conscience of the country,
Starting point is 00:43:15 like the CBC is noted as being in the conscience of the Congress. For the people out there who feel some of that same torment, who want to stand in solidarity with the palestinian people and it seems like the world has turned their back on them i'm just curious what your thoughts are given the division all the diversity we've seen and yet this division remains so pronounced here yeah so i'm gonna say that it's not an either or it's an and yes um you know the the issue that i i have is that um i think that we need to go ahead and be real about the fact that anyone that is uncomfortable with suffering is actually just being human. That is what it means to be human.
Starting point is 00:43:54 And I think that we should all hug each other and say, listen, this is what we should be doing in this moment. Dave Chappelle is walking by, so we're waving. They all distracted. Hey, Dave. No, no, no. So I think that we should say it is the right thing to do. It is the morally right thing to do to care about suffering, not just as it relates to the Palestinians, but suffering anywhere. Because we can talk about the Sudan.
Starting point is 00:44:19 We can talk about Congo. We can talk about the streets in the United States. That's right. We should all be compassionate about suffering in general. At the same time, this is going to come down to two people. Somebody going to be the president of the United States. It's either going to be the guy or it's going to be the woman. And right now I can tell you that it has to be the woman for me. And that doesn't mean that you are going to agree with her on everything. I think that this was elaborated in a way by Michelle Obama.
Starting point is 00:44:47 You know, we continuously seek perfection. One of the things that I used to say on the trail all the time, specifically when I was out there for President Biden, is that there is no perfection walking on this earth. Not at all. And I would definitely say it when I went to the black church. And I would say we always want our preachers and our politicians to be perfect. And neither one will be. You will always be let down. But we are supposed to fight for a more perfect union.
Starting point is 00:45:11 And fighting for a more perfect union means that you continuously engage in conversation and communication and you move the needle. Let me tell you something. There was a point in time that nobody would have ever imagined that Joe Biden would do anything on student loan debt forgiveness. And yeah that's right and who led the way on it it was joe biden that's right but guess what there were people that were pulling him and telling him that that was the right thing to do so i'm just saying i need them to understand that we can't sit this out yeah because the suffering that we see in gaza is only going to get worse if Trump ends up being the one that ends up in position. Because let me tell you, they have been on the House floor and they have specifically said, just go nuke them. That is what they said. And you won't find that on the news. You got to go
Starting point is 00:45:58 to C-SPAN and you can see them talking about the people of Gaza. I can tell you that we had three packages that we voted on. The first package was to just send money over to Israel and defund the IRS. The second package was to just send money to Israel. The third package sent money to Israel, but it also sent aid to Gaza. It sent aid to Haiti. It sent aid to Taiwan. It did more to make sure that we could also help those that are suffering. These people don't care about people that are suffering.
Starting point is 00:46:26 That's right. It's the same reason that they are only looking to do tax breaks for people that are at the upper 1%. And they don't care about the people that need $6 a day to eat. I'm trying to tell y'all that we don't need to vote against our interests. And it doesn't mean that either one of the administrations will be great on everything that you care about. Absolutely.
Starting point is 00:46:47 But it is your job to push an administration that at least somewhat closely aligns with your goals and push them closer to the finish line. A more perfect.
Starting point is 00:46:56 Absolutely. That's why you're a star right there, Congresswoman. Thank you so much for being here. We love you. We f*** with you. Oh, I'm sorry. My bad.
Starting point is 00:47:04 It's allowed to be. Who is you? She know what I mean. Thank you so much. Nice to see you. I love you. We f*** with you. Oh, I'm sorry. My bad. Who is you? She know what I mean. Thank you so much. Nice to meet you. Thank you so much. All right. Well, salute to Jasmine Crockett.
Starting point is 00:47:15 Now, when we come back, Charlamagne, who else did you get a chance to kick it with? Oh, man. Myself, along with Angela Rye, Andrew Gillum, and Tiffany Cross, collectively known as the Native Land Podcast. We spoke to, man, a couple of the cops who were actually there on January 6th. As a kid, I really do remember having these dreams and visions, but you just don't know what is going to come for you. Alicia Keys opens up about conquering doubt, learning to trust herself and leaning into her dreams. I think a lot of times we are built to doubt the possibilities for ourselves. For self-preservation and protection, it was literally that step by step.
Starting point is 00:47:56 And so I discovered that that is how we get where we're going. This increment of small, determined moments. Alicia shares her wisdom on growth, gratitude, and the power of love. I forgive myself. It's okay. Like grace. Have grace with yourself. You're trying your best and you're going to figure out the rhythm of this thing. Alicia Keys, like you've never heard her before.

So I just can't say enough how we are so thrilled to be joined by two American heroes that day. And I want to kick it off with you, Harry. You know, firsthand, you were literally on the front line wishing the MF would.
Starting point is 00:54:00 OK, you let a few people know. What are you most concerned about with this election cycle? And do you think that there is potential to see more political violence? I know we're keeping hope and talking, you know, a lot of positivity. But this is a real situation that exists out there with people who are disproportionately armed to the rest of us. What do you think about it? What do you think? Let's talk about it. Well, first of all, on January 6th, I did my job as a police officer. On January 7th, I did what I'm doing now to this day as an American citizen who loved this country. It wasn't even about Capitol Police from then to now.
Starting point is 00:54:32 And I was fighting for accountability for everybody responsible for the downfalls of those days, including Donald Trump. Accountability serves two purposes. For the people who were aggrieved, they felt some type of harm. It provides some type of closure for them. And also, it serves as a deterrent. That hasn't happened yet. So what's to keep it from happening again? The Supreme Court, they just said Donald Trump
Starting point is 00:54:54 cannot be held accountable for his actions that day. That's right. So what is to stop him from doing it again? If you remember in the debate with Joe Biden, they asked him three times, will you commit to accepting the results of the election? He couldn't answer it. So he's planting the seeds already to his supporters for the doubt.
Starting point is 00:55:12 And that's what January 6th was about. It was about a lie. They thought he told his followers, his cultists, that the election was stolen. And that's all they needed. If the most powerful person in the world tells you, go march on the Capitol then you gonna go do it i mean my mama tell me do anything i'm empowered can't nobody tell me do nothing imagine the most powerful man in the world saying go do it you're gonna feel empowered to do it so he's already planting those seeds and yes to answer yes it can happen again and there's nothing really stopping it from happening again but us
Starting point is 00:55:42 but us what did y'all think was happening on that day when everything first started occurring? At first, we thought there was going to be nonviolence. There was skirmishes like we normally do from time to time, but not to the level that very same president who's supposed to have the well-being of the country put in jeopardy the safety of every elected official inside the Capitol. And then not only did he do that, then he sat on his behind and not do anything to prevent any further violence.
Starting point is 00:56:16 When I was in the tunnel fighting with a mob, it was roughly 30 to 40 officers side by side, shoulder to shoulder fighting, holding down the line in the tunnel. I was asking myself this very same question. Where the f*** is the president? Where is our help? Where is our reinforcement? Because this happened in broad daylight, 16 blocks away from the Capitol. Me as a military person, as a veteran, as somebody who went to combat, and I know the chain of command.
Starting point is 00:56:41 The chain of command ends and begins with the commander-in-chief. Who was the commander-in-chief that day? Donald Trump. What did he do? He put everybody inside the building, including the officers, at life's risk. And we protected your elected officials, whether you were from Georgia or California or New York. We protected them the same. I didn't care whether it was AOC or Marjory Taylor Greene.
Starting point is 00:57:09 I didn't care. We protect them both the same. And to hear that today there's a report that he's planning to do a gala. Y'all see that? For the January 6th, sister, six-year-old writers. A gala. An awards gala for January 6th. For next month. Yeah,. Wow. For next month.
Starting point is 00:57:25 Yeah, next month. For next month. Not for the officers who risked their lives. Yeah. Because they claim that we are the party of law and order. Right. We are the party that support the rule of law. We are the party that support the police.
Starting point is 00:57:39 How is that supporting the police if you are celebrating and not denouncing the violence that people did to the officers? Yeah. People died. And that's what I did last night. I tried to convey that in my speech last night. Because, look, my story is something that everybody should know. I'm literally the embodiment of the type of immigrant that they, the Republicans, say that they want in this country. And ask me how many elected official Republicans have talked to me about what happened to me on January 6th.
Starting point is 00:58:15 Two. Liz Cheney and Ada Kinzinger. Nobody else. I have passed a lot of them. And none of them can get themselves to say, I'm sorry for what happened to you. Now that I'm asking, thank you for what you did. Look, I came here when I was 12.
Starting point is 00:58:32 I'm sorry. I came here when I was 12. I struggled first with family, with adapting, assimilating. But I overcome those things. I got an education. I joined the military. I went to fight for this country overseas when my government told me to. Whether I
Starting point is 00:58:51 liked it or not, I did my job there. I kept my duty, my oath. When I came back, I finished my education and then I became a Capitol police officer where I was for 17 years until the injuries that people that claim to love police officers agree with me.
Starting point is 00:59:09 They damaged my body, damaged my health, damaged my career. And then they had the audacity to tell me, I did it for you. And then they call me, you are a traitor because you stopped me and my people, like-minded people like me that support Donald Trump. Well, you're certainly not a traitor. Neither of you. You are heroes. And even if Donald Trump won't tell you thank you, we thank you for your service. Can I just run a quick question?
Starting point is 00:59:34 I didn't want to know, how did y'all show restraint and not turn it into a bloodbath? Because y'all could have easily just pulled out your gun. I don't even know if it was about restraint, man. It was just about survival, man. I was armed that day with a long gun, an AR-15. You know, the guns that we don't need on the streets, right? They know.
Starting point is 00:59:51 They're the ones that we don't need on the streets anymore. But I wasn't going out in a crowd of, you go in there, you pull your gun out. Our former chief wrote a book. We were outnumbered 58 to 1. You pull your gun out, then what? Which one are you going to shoot? Who do you shoot first? You can't just fire indiscriminately.
Starting point is 01:00:08 And I think that just shows the professionalism of what police should be. What police should be. Not just in their bus because somebody come up a pot of hot water. We were justified to use lethal force. We chose not to because we didn't know who had weapons on their side.
Starting point is 01:00:23 In my belief, when I faced that decision, because I almost did, especially when they were dragging, whatever happened to Fanon, Fanon relieved me. And when I got a chance to go back into the fight, people were trying to pull me into the crowd. And I didn't do it because somebody else hit, another officer hit the person who was dragging me. That damaged my shoulder. By then, I was hurt and injured. Look, we were justified to use lethal force.
Starting point is 01:00:52 What we didn't want to do was create a bigger situation that we're already outnumbered anyway. Yeah, thank you so much. Thank you for having us. Thank you for your service, man. Thank you for your service. Thank you so much. All right.
Starting point is 01:01:05 Well, respect to those two brothers right there. Now, when we come back, Charlemagne was at the DNC. He spoke to a bunch of people. And when we come back, he spoke to a young brother named Noah.
Starting point is 01:01:14 Man, my man Noah was taken. He is a content creator on Instagram. He's only 12 years old, but he is very, very, very, very, very interesting. I think he's the future governor of Georgia. We're going to talk to him. All right, we'll do that next. It's the Breakfast Club. Good but he is very, very, very, very, very interesting. I think he's the future governor of Georgia.
Starting point is 01:01:25 We're going to talk to him. All right, we'll do that next. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. Good morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Jess Alaris, Charlamagne Tha Guy. We are The Breakfast Club. Lauren LaRosa's filling in for Jess.
Starting point is 01:01:35 Charlamagne's out at the DNC, and he's kicking it with so many different people. And up next, you kicked it with a young man named Noah. Yes, man, Noah. Known as Noah was taken on Instagram. He had a viral moment recently where he got into it with a Republican politician actually at the DNC because he was pressing him about some very simple questions. But I like Noah, man. He's 12 years old.
Starting point is 01:01:55 I really think he's going to be a future governor of Georgia one day. So we're going to talk to him. 12 years old and pressing. It's crazy. Yep. Press like pressing, pressing. Like Silk Press. Yes.
Starting point is 01:02:04 Like Kamala Harris's Silk crazy. Yep. Press, like pressing, pressing. Like silk press. Yes. Like Kamala Harris's silk press. Absolutely. Right now we have an internet sensation. Noah was taken and Noah was taken is joining us today after tearing a grown man
Starting point is 01:02:18 to shreds yesterday at the convention. Tell us what happened. Yeah. I saw Mike Lindell and I asked him a respectful and quick question. But he got mad and acted like the big bad wolf and decided to take it personally. He started to get all up in my face.
Starting point is 01:02:35 Oh, like that? No, he didn't. Or you know he didn't? How old are you, Noah? Noah was taking 12. A big 12. He got a big old man got in a big 12's face. I wish I was there. I'd have swung on him.
Starting point is 01:02:44 No, no. No, no. No, no. No, no. I'm sure you would have. Tell us what happened after that, before the nards swung in. Yeah, and then I asked him a few questions he couldn't even respond to. He had no real answer whatsoever, except for his personal grievances. I ended up fact-checking him later.
Starting point is 01:03:02 Everything he said was completely false and never happened. What was the question? Do you remember your initial question to him? I said, why are you denying the results of a completely fair and free election? And he started naming these people with the names and the fancy names, but he didn't give me a last name.
Starting point is 01:03:19 All he said was the first name. He said I didn't want to give their public name out there. If you're an elected official, your name should be out there. Right. Especially if you're representing me in my state of Georgia. I should know your name, right? So he didn't want to provide any of that. So it was almost impossible to fact check.
Starting point is 01:03:36 So future governor of Georgia, Noah, what got you into politics, young man? Stacey Abrams, who just walked by us. Okay. You were energized by her campaign? I was energized by her campaign i was energized by her campaign wow thank you where you go to school home school boy you got a great teacher yeah whoever they are taking pictures no i want to say that you have done what so many in the mainstream media have failed to do you have to point your questions yes done what so many in the mainstream media have failed to do. You asked a poignant question.
Starting point is 01:04:12 I saw the video when you demanded that he cite his sources and held him accountable. So I'm so impressed with you. I know Charlemagne has spoken into that you'll be the governor. I'd like to speak that over you as well. Is there something, other ambitions that you have in your life? Well, yeah. I would love to continue to be able to promote the Democratic Party and all of their accomplishments. But other than that, I want to continue doing what I'm doing. Does it hurt you that you can't vote yet? That you're six years away from being able to vote?
Starting point is 01:04:37 Not six years. I can encourage folks to vote. So that's enough for me. One thing you can do when you can't vote, you can walk in the polls with people. So I can walk into the polls of hundreds of family members and it counts just as much. If you could vote in this election
Starting point is 01:04:54 this fall, tell me who you'd be voting for. He's got a pen on him. So you're not going to let him answer the question? Yeah, absolutely Kamala Harris all the way. Give me three reasons why. First of all, her policy platform. You're going to ask the policy platform, huh?
Starting point is 01:05:08 No. Go ahead. You got to tell them to play what you want. No already. No already. I want to hear that. The policy platform, how she's not Donald Trump, and she just has a great way of energizing the country. And her policy platform is critical to that.
Starting point is 01:05:23 Yeah. Yeah. I love that thank you so much brother i love your confidence thank you i do we we might we could do that the next time we go into a do a live show that's right we enjoyed it we're gonna go on when we come to georgia you joining us brother you're gonna come back we want everybody to see you want to help no one might need a podcast or something like he breaks things down so concise and so simple.
Starting point is 01:05:49 And I think that's what people need. Would you do a podcast, Noah? I would love to do a podcast. What? Okay, we are asking Mama because you can't make your own decisions on the way yet. That's right. Legal. We're going to get your guardian.
Starting point is 01:06:02 Right, right. Talk to me before you sign that contract. I'll make sure you get that right. I want to make sure you get that right. I like that tip. I like that tip. Get them dollars. Noah, thank you so much for joining us. You know, I do want to ask Noah, who are some of your favorite young content creators in the same spaces as you?

Starting point is 01:08:20 All right. So a little update on Jenny from the block. So we reported earlier this week that she filed for a divorce from Ben Affleck and TMZ obtained the documents from the filing. And pretty little interesting fact that I want to throw out there in this update was that JLo had actually changed her name to Jennifer Lynn Affleck. She decided that she wanted to change her name back to Jennifer Lynn Lopez which is crazy to me because she took off Lopez I didn't know she took off Lopez we didn't our whole brand JLo but she kept
Starting point is 01:08:51 pushing the brand she never made it a thing I don't even remember knowing that she changed her last name to Affleck which I thought was interesting but I was like dang JLo really is like who can she date that is bigger than her just like career wise or whatever because she changed
Starting point is 01:09:07 her last name so fast. A lot of women will keep their last names for different reasons or especially when you were married to someone who also is a celebrity sometimes. J-Lo got rid of the last name so fast. J-Flack sound nasty. That sounds like some cheap insurance you get when you can't get J-Flack.
Starting point is 01:09:25 In other news on divorces, Judge Mathis and his now estranged wife, Linda, have filed for divorce. Linda actually filed after 39 years of marriage. That is insane. They got married in 1985. This was before Judge Mathis
Starting point is 01:09:40 was on TV. This was 14 years before his first court show. Right after he graduated from college. It's not clear exactly what her reasoning was. She just put irreconcilable differences, which is like the normal thing that people list. Date of separation was July 17th. And
Starting point is 01:09:56 they don't have any issues over like, you know, child support or whatever because all their kids are grown. They have four kids over 18. And she is asking for spousal support. But I remember watching their reality show that they had about their family and i loved their family dynamic um i really be wanting to hear from uh people you know who do things like that because you know me and my wife we've been together 26 years we're married for 10 this year but i just always wonder when you know you've been with somebody for so long and you're so up in age what makes you uh at that point
Starting point is 01:10:24 decide yeah enough is enough i just want to know i just want to know the the mentality that's all that's what i was thinking when i was reading the story like man like they're i thought they were it had been ruined for a long time they could have been seeing you know not eye to eye people evolve and maybe they were waiting for one of their their kids to get a little older to do this you just don't know what somebody's mentality is when in a relationship but like charlamagne said i've been with my wife 30 married 22 yeah 23 actually and we were talking about this in the room um well i was saying yesterday that like when you've been with someone for as long as they've been together i'm not i'm not going there with you what you're saying like judge mathis if he does date someone else they're
Starting point is 01:11:00 never going to get the judge mathis that linda his now strange wife had because like they went through so much together but that could be good or bad though true but it's just like i'm 64 now and things i'm 64 everything hit different at 64 or don't say or don't hit nah but you know like you know people evolve i mean me and charlamagne are not the same person we were when we first started dating our wives. We evolved. We grew as people should. But ain't y'all glad that y'all are with people that got to see y'all through all of those phases sometimes? Like, don't you sit back like, man, like, I'm glad I'm there. It's a difference between evolution and being 60 plus years old, though.
Starting point is 01:11:35 That's what I'm saying. That's all I'm saying. Yeah, you 60 plus years old. What I'm supposed to do after 39 years of marriage? This wolf ain't got no teeth no more, man. Nah, but men can get back out there wait hold on not having teeth and you gotta get back out there might not be
Starting point is 01:11:49 a bad thing for a guy he got money he gonna be on vacation and he gonna be spending the rest of his life cause he got teeth y'all know what I meant when I said that what I'm saying is going over y'all head the lady's gonna feel me though there is gas station pills for that I wasn't even talking about all that.

Alicia Keys opens up about conquering doubt, learning to trust herself and leaning into her dreams.
Starting point is 01:12:59 I think a lot of times we are built to doubt the possibilities for ourselves. For self-preservation and protection, it was literally that step by step. And so I discovered that that is how we get where we're going. This increment of small, determined moments. Alicia shares her wisdom on growth, gratitude, and the power of love. I forgive myself. It's okay. Like grace. Have grace with yourself. You're trying your best and you're gonna figure out the rhythm of this thing. Alicia Keys, like you've never heard her before.

Join us over at Broken Record to hear stories behind the legendary label. Listen on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts or wherever you listen to podcasts. And of course, they asked him about Drake and the, the you know the ongoing shots that him and drake throw at each other because of rihanna and asap briefly um i like the way he handled it he briefly got into it um so we're going to take a listen to some of the more recent songs that have like been released where they took shots at each other so let's listen to um ASAP Rocky on Show of Hands first.
Starting point is 01:17:47 So that is ASAP responding to Drake. Drake takes shots at him so much that you can't even pinpoint where he's responding to. But he's basically saying, like, you came and went and you're upset because I've been here and ain't going nowhere. And obviously you didn't hit, like, not hit like that, but like. We know what you mean. Yeah, like it didn't. She didn't stay there. She's here. But Drake has this AS asap on family matters um he dissed them on um a few other songs but we have
Starting point is 01:18:13 fear of heights let's take a listen to fear heights auntie is so whack this is garbage the way you should have played family matters family matters was hard i ain't gonna front he had some he had some some lethal bars, I thought, for ASAP on Family Matters. But Auntie was garbage. The reason I played that one, though, is because I feel like for you to take your time and it to be slowed down
Starting point is 01:18:34 and you really wanted it to hit and then it didn't. People talk about Tyrese and other people being stuck on exes. Drake is really low-key stuck on Rihanna. Auntie, like your daddy's sister, is one of the stinkest bars. Fought on like your daddy sister is one of the stinkest bars fought on that board that's one of the stinkest bars like what's wrong with like okay what's wrong with antigua he'd be trying to play asap like he can't leave her because he ain't
Starting point is 01:18:55 got no money and he ain't nobody that's how he'd be trying to play with asap so um yeah but the reason why i brought this part of it up is because i like the way asap handled it and it shows his growth you know what i mean like we know we know A$AP is from around. He basically was like, those are just shots. I'm not worried about it. Like, I don't care. I just do it for fun at this point in response to him. But he talked a lot about his family stuff, too.
Starting point is 01:19:15 And they asked him about how Rihanna is as a parent and, like, them together as a family. He says that he wants his kids to be able to just walk to the corner store and have a regular life like he did in harlem and he talked about how rihanna plays too much and they made no a mention to say like rihanna asap's kids will never be able to just walk to a corner store yes they can that's what he said they can buy the whole block buy the whole block buy the corner store don't nobody live there but them and their family okay call it fenty town all right it's not not quarter orders walking with your cousins though they ain't never gonna get that they're Nobody live there but them and their family. Okay? Call it Fenty Town. All right? It's not bad. They can walk wherever they want to walk. Not quarter orders walking with your cousins, though. They ain't never going to get that feeling.
Starting point is 01:19:48 They're not going to get that Harlem feel like that ASAP as they used to. They're not going to get that. Why? Why would you want that? Parents be wanting that to keep their kids grounded. Y'all got money. Y'all know. I be thinking that, but that's just stupid.
Starting point is 01:19:59 It's just a stupid mentality. I think what we're trying to say is we want our kids to learn to appreciate things, and we want our kids to understand that you know none of this all of this stuff is a privilege it is a privilege to be in the positions that you're in but you don't have to grow up in the hood you know to instill that in your kids I have your kids grow up in the hood then still that in that I don't think it's the grown-up in the hood part I think it's the fact that they have a childhood they were able to go outside and actually play and play with their friends. Now, you gotta make a
Starting point is 01:20:26 play date. Your kid's childhood should be better if you got finances. What are you talking about? My kids got more passports. I didn't get on a plane until I was 21. All my kids got more stamps on their passports. 21 is crazy. Traveling is different. 21 is crazy. I'm so sorry.
Starting point is 01:20:42 Our kids travel, but back in like, you miss the days of going outside and playing with friends. Bro, it's broke kids that can't go outside and play with friends right now. Y'all see all these? ASAP can't do that. It's all these poor, shiesty mans outside. Them regular kids ain't going outside today either.

No, I'm talking about the streets of Harlem. We got to wrap this up. How do we want them in the streets of Harlem? That's what ASAP is saying. You acting like D.L.
Starting point is 01:21:35 Hughley on Kamala today. I don't know. The misunderstanding is... They're not coming out of Beverly Hills on their neighbor that's a mile down the road and having a block party. It's not the same as growing up in Harlem and experiencing all the things that Harlem's got to experience. For sure, but my point is it's not supposed to be. That was A-Stat Rocky's experience.
Starting point is 01:21:53 He put himself in a position to make better experiences for his kids. That's what it's about. It's about us doing better for the next generation. That generation isn't supposed to experience that. They're supposed to have their own experiences. That's all I'm saying. I ain't even got no kids. Okay, let's go.
Starting point is 01:22:12 I mean, we can stay here. I would love to stay on this subject with you if you would like. If this is what you want to do, Lauren, this morning. Four after the hour, we need a man named Joshua Kim to come to the front of the congregation. Would you like to have a word with him, please? Alright, we'll get to that next. It's the Breakfast Club. Good morning.
Starting point is 01:22:30 It's time for Donkey of the Day. Donkeys of the Day at Charlemagne. I'm a Democrat, so being Donkey of the Day is a little bit of a mixed place. So like a donkey. Hee-haw. Donkey of the Day. The Breakfast Club, bitches. Now, I've been called a lot in my
Starting point is 01:22:46 23 years that donkey of the day is a new one donkey of the day for Friday August 23rd goes to 36 year old Joshua Kim Joshua hails from close to my neck of the woods Myrtle Beach South Carolina dropping the clues bombs from Myrtle Beach South Carolina haven't been there in a minute but had some amazing time there
Starting point is 01:23:04 amazing times there growing up now something your uncle charlotte tells you constantly is that our sole purpose in life is to avoid crazy okay we all wake up every day wanting to protect our minds wanting to protect our bodies and one way to do that is to avoid crazy at all costs okay very hard task to do sometimes okay because you simply don't know who's crazy it's just very hard to do because you simply don't know who's crazy that's why minding your business is very important but sometimes crazy finds you and that's what happened to the employees of the sugar life ice cream and candy bar store in Myrtle
Starting point is 01:23:38 Beach see Joshua Kim is a 36 year old grown-ass man who clearly likes sweets okay dropping the clues bombs for all the diabetics out there. Come on. I went on Sugar Life Ice Cream and Candy Bar Store's website, and they have menu items like giant gummy pickles. Okay, Envy could swallow that without chewing it. All right, they got scrambled gummy sizzlers. Okay, those candies look like scrambled eggs.
Starting point is 01:24:01 They got Warheads, Blue Raspberry Soda Warheads. I didn't even know that Warheads had soda. Green Apple Warhead Soda. I never seen that. They sell candy in bulk. They got gummy bears and blow pops. They got the Lunchables, but they're candy. They got candy tacos, all types of stuff.
Starting point is 01:24:17 And Joshua Kim decided to go in this store and make a purchase. Well, he must not have liked what he bought because he decided to take it back. But what he didn't account for was the store's no return policy on candy i mean it's right there they tell you during the checkout process but joshua kim wasn't going for it let's go to wmbf tv for the report please myrtle beach police arrested 36 year old joshua kim thursday shortly after they say he pulled out a gun on several employees here at the Sugar Life ice cream and candy bar along South Kings Highway. Officers say the scary encounter happened when Kim got into an argument while trying to return candy, something the store does not allow. Management here at Sugar Life says the threats also unfolded in front of a crowd of visitors not just putting employees in
Starting point is 01:25:05 danger but young children as well when officers searched kim's car a report shows they found cocaine and weed inside kim is now being held under a bond of more than 750 000 and is facing a slew of charges like pointing and presenting a gun. Reporting in Myrtle Beach, Ashley Liss from WMBF News. I feel like this could be an online Snickers commercial. Like Joshua Kim, right? Hear me out. Joshua Kim. You see him.
Starting point is 01:25:34 It pops up. Boom. Joshua Kim. But it's actually Joshua Kim Jong-un, Supreme Leader in North Korea. And, you know, it's him walking into a candy store and he got everybody up against the wall at gunpoint threatening to blow chunks of their brain out if they don't do what he wants. And then he eats his Snickers and turns back into his regular self because we all know you're not yourself when you're hungry. Right. This is what I'd be talking about, man.
Starting point is 01:25:53 It's what I'd be talking about when I say every day of our lives, we have to avoid crazy. OK, all he was doing in this candy store was their job selling Sour Patch Kids, selling gummy popsicles. And here comes this domestic terrorist, Joshua Kim Jong-un, pulling out pistols because he wants a refund on some Lai Zhu eyeball gummies. Now, I'm not the highest grade of weed in the dispensary, but I personally don't believe that is a reason to pull a pistol on someone just because you want a refund on some damn candy. Okay, I could even understand more if he was poor and was robbing the candy store.
Starting point is 01:26:21 That is what I would call a sweet lick, but being upset that they won't refund whatever candy you bought is exactly the reason my phone goes on do not disturb at 9 p.m every night for the last 15 years of my life because i do not and will not talk to n words of any race after a certain time now when i hear stories like this i have to have a reason for the crazy right like i don't want to believe that humans brains simply just work like this so i liked uh in the news report when we heard that police searched a truck that belonged to joshua kim jung-un uh by the way a truck that they said was leaving the scene was seen leaving the scene of another related incident so what y'all just go around doing uh the drive-bys on candy stores
Starting point is 01:27:02 y'all just go around traumatizing these employees that work at the candy stores. It made me feel good to know that they found 0.41 grams of another kind of candy, and that candy was cocaine. Okay, they also found some weed. So he might have been smoking Woolers. Woolers is when you put the weed in the blunt, sprinkle some cocaine on top of it, and enjoy one of the best highs of your life. Okay, I'm 46 years old. Your Uncle Sharla has lived. Okay, i smoked one of those dirty blunts on accident once when i was a young lad and damn near my whole life i've been waiting to smoke one on accident again now joshua kim jung-un's baby mama had something to say let's listen to her all i could do was thank god like thank god that my son was not there because i
Starting point is 01:27:42 don't know what i would have done while sugar life staff continue to recover from the tense situation george says she hopes kim will get the help he needs behind bars okay like that so honestly the best place for him is to be in jail you know maybe he can get his mind right he can sober up and do something for his life so my son can have a father moral of the story is joshua kim is nuts out of his damn mind y'all heard his baby mama listen to his baby mama his baby mama wants him to get some help when your baby mama said jail is probably the best thing for you that means you probably need some intense psychotherapy and some help with your substance abuse issues because now you got drug charges two counts pointing and presenting firearm at a person and unlawful conduct
Starting point is 01:28:27 toward a child. Some donkey of the days just sell themselves. Please give Joshua Kim the sweet sounds of the hammer tones. Oh, now you are the donkey of the day. You are the donkey of the day. All drugs are tight. Go ahead. I'll go ahead.
Starting point is 01:28:56 You know how bad of a person you gotta be to pull out a gun in a candy store? Yeah, I agree. They make you smell good. They make you feel good. They make you... That they make you like them people be so nice it's like somebody pulling out a gun at chick-fil-a like it's just and the poor employees they don't even know what's going on do we play the employees talking you ain't play that right you should have played the employees talking play this and we don't got that damn never mind
Starting point is 01:29:20 what they say damn don't worry about it yeah i'm surprised mac ain't walking when you're talking about all that food alright well thank you for that donkey of the day and also too Mac said he wanted to he tired from the DNC they need to make the DNC a day party
Starting point is 01:29:31 Mac wasn't at the DNC no but we were up cutting stuff oh watching getting things ready yeah also I don't like when baby mamas
Starting point is 01:29:37 talk like that about their baby daddies okay you know who you let shoot your club up that's the same person that was the same that man should have
Starting point is 01:29:44 been in jail when he shot your club up I saw the little baby the little baby was the same. That man should have been in jail when he shot your club up. I saw the little baby. The little baby ain't nothing but maybe one years old. That man was crazy a year ago and you knew that. Right.
Starting point is 01:29:51 But now, now all of a sudden, you know, you think jail is the best thing for him. Wasn't the best thing for him when y'all was sweating on each other. You know? You know who you let hit raw.
Starting point is 01:30:01 All shots matter. He's right. What was that noise he was making? All right. All right. He's been in this trip. I don't know if I'm supposed to say that raw. All shots matter. He's right. What was that noise he was making? All right. All right. He's been in this church. I don't know if I'm supposed to say that anymore. Yeah, okay.
Starting point is 01:30:09 All right. Well, thank you for that donkey today. Now, Charlamagne was at the DNC the last couple of days. And you got a chance to chop it up with a bunch of different people, right? Yeah, I was out there with my good sister, Angela Rye, and Tiffany Cross, and Andrew Gillum, you know, the host of the Native Land podcast. And we spoke to a lot of people over the last couple of days. They were there all week.
Starting point is 01:30:28 I was just there Wednesday and Thursday. But when we come back, we're going to play our conversation that we had with my man, Ellie Mistel. Ellie Mistel is amazing. You know, I've been quoting this article that he wrote in The Nation about the Supreme Court and how you can't overstate the damage that they have done and will continue to do. So we're going to talk to him, but also Governor Josh Shapiro of Pennsylvania. You know, he's been on Breakfast Club before. He was he was right there to be the VP pick.
Starting point is 01:30:55 But, you know, it didn't happen. So we're going to talk to Governor Josh Shapiro when we come back. All right. We'll do that when we come back. Don't move. It's the Breakfast Club. Good morning. The Breakfast Club. Good morning. The Breakfast Club. Morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Jess Hilarious, Charlamagne the guy. We are The Breakfast Club. Laura London filling in for Jess. Laura London? Damn. I told you. It just be happening. It's because
Starting point is 01:31:17 my name is Lauren. Lauren LaRosa filling in for Jess. And she ain't say Lauren Hill. Okay. I've never been called Lauren Hill. You're right. The Delaware Nunu. Now, Charlamagne was at the DNC and you kicked it with so many different people. What are we about to get into now?
Starting point is 01:31:33 Right now, we're going to talk to my man, Governor Josh Shapiro, man. Governor Josh Shapiro, you know, he is a person that was in heavy consideration to be Vice President Kamala Harris' running mate as she runs to try to be the next president of the United States of America. But he's a great governor of Pennsylvania. He's been on the Breakfast Club before.
Starting point is 01:31:51 So, yeah, we chopped it up with him. Man, Governor Josh Shapiro is here. I loved your theme of freedom last night. And, you know, one question that I've been asking everyone in light of the Supreme Court's recent ruling is the fact we know so many Republican officials will refuse to certify the results of the election. Do you believe our democracy is healthy enough to have a free and fair election come November? I do. Because, look, last time we had a free and fair, safe
Starting point is 01:32:12 and secure election in Pennsylvania and elsewhere, and our courts held. The judges, when it was up to them, did do the right thing. But make no mistake, there are serious threats out there. It's one of the reasons why nine months ago, as the governor of Pennsylvania, which I think everybody agrees is kind of the ultimate swing state here,
Starting point is 01:32:30 we put together an election protection task force led by my secretary of the Commonwealth who oversees elections, importantly a Republican, because I think the administration of elections is nonpartisan. Obviously partisan exercises decide who you want to be for, but we want everyone in pennsylvania to know that their ballot can be cast their ballot will be counted and i don't care what donald trump does to try and throw out a vote we'll be ready to go to court to protect it we were both surprised that you were not selected as the vp i was disappointed i was
Starting point is 01:33:02 gonna say that next okay um. And I want to know what it takes emotionally to get past that when you know you're qualified, when you know your friends are qualified too, when you're standing shoulder to shoulder with them and you know you got to carry on in the fight. Yeah. How do you move past that? Well, first off, I said during that process, which I was really humbled and honored to be a part of, that this was at the end of the day, a deeply personal decision for the vice president. I'll tell you what, it was also a deeply personal decision for me. And you've got to make sure that you're in the right situation,
Starting point is 01:33:34 ultimately, most importantly, for her. She's the boss. But also making sure that you're in the best position where you can serve, where you can chart your course, where you can have an impact on people every day. And at the end of the day, I think she made an outstanding pick in Tim Wall. Solid pick, absolutely. He's going to serve her well in that role, and I look forward to continuing to do everything I can as governor of Pennsylvania.
Starting point is 01:33:55 It's a compliment to you, though, because people were saying, like, he's not a number two, he's a number one. So he could be a number two. Speaking of number ones, because that was my follow-up, there's been a lot of messy talk about when Kamala Harris and Tim Walz win in 2024, that what would prevent you from challenging them in 2028? Would you say, like, I would never do that? Listen, I don't play that game. They're going to win.
Starting point is 01:34:16 I'm going to do everything I can to help. And I'm going to do everything I can to help make sure they win again. I love that. But putting the noise to rest, I think, is mission critical. So I appreciate you doing that. Governor, I'm curious. What putting the noise to rest, I think, is mission critical. So I appreciate you doing that. Governor, I'm curious. What was that, Tim? Well, because I was trying to think when was the last time that we had a broker convention at the DNC.
Starting point is 01:34:31 So I was wondering where that speculation would come from. But, Governor, I know you enjoy being governor. You've been clear that you enjoy being governor of Pennsylvania. However, there is speculation about what role you might take when Pamala Harris and Tim Walz win the White House. Should you join her administration? I'm curious what your advice to her would be when it comes to what we're seeing happening in Israel and Gaza. Let me be clear. I love being governor of Pennsylvania, and I'm going to continue to be governor of Pennsylvania.
Starting point is 01:35:01 Period. Hard stop. End of sentence. Full stop. If you're asking me about Israel, I'm happy to give you my thoughts on that. But ultimately, that policy is going to be set by the Harris-Walls administration with whoever she has, hopefully negotiating a peace in the Middle East. That's right.
Starting point is 01:35:18 I wanted to ask you about Pennsylvania, Governor. Donald Trump's support among white working class voters without a college degree has shrunk significantly, not just in Pennsylvania, Michigan and Wisconsin as well. That group typically favors Republicans, but they're now starting to back the vice president. Why do you think that is? You know, I'll tell you what, Charlamagne. Anecdotally, when I'm out in these rural areas, I go there a lot. Folks kind of sidle up to me and they go, what do you really think of her?
Starting point is 01:35:42 What's her deal? What I'm trying to express to you is there's like a curiosity. What's she really like? What's she going to be like? You know her. I take that as a really positive and hopeful sign that they're kind of open to considering her candidacy. Governor Shapiro, your speech got under Trump's skin. He called you an overrated Jewish governor.
Starting point is 01:36:01 So what offended you more, him calling you overrated or the anti-Semitism? I think my poll numbers were at 20 points better than his. Get it, governor. Drop the mic, governor. I shouldn't have said that. You should have. That's literally the definition of
Starting point is 01:36:19 say less. Checking poll numbers, bro. I don't get upset when he criticizes me I don't get too high when people say nice things too low when people say bad things here's what pisses me off though when he engages in these anti-semitic tropes
Starting point is 01:36:35 when he pushes hatred and bigotry into our political discourse it makes other people around here feel less safe it makes them feel like they don't belong and it infects us and listen i got four kids i try and raise them to be good people you try and raise them to be the kind of people that you'd want in the leader of this nation kamala harris is that kind of person you know no matter what you look like where you come from who you love who you pray to you belong here she believes that i believe that donald trump
Starting point is 01:37:05 doesn't believe that and that is what's upsetting to me not that he calls me a bad namer engages in attacks on me it's how it makes other people feel you would think he would learn his lesson because he's already created an environment of political violence that's clearly haven't been safe for him nobody see that's a nobody that's a point. What do you say to people? I've been seeing the right say this a lot. Democrats talk like they don't have the White House now. They talk like they haven't had the White House 12 over the last 16 years. How come Democrats don't speak like they are in the driver's seat?
Starting point is 01:37:36 I'm not sure I'd look at it that way. But I think what we have now as a result of what occurred over the last 30-ish days or so, we've got a change agent in Kamala Harris. We got someone who now gets to lay out a different vision, a different path forward. And so, of course, she's going to take up the mantle of change. We already know what the hell Donald Trump's going to do. He did it for four years. And you know what he did?
Starting point is 01:37:58 More chaos, less jobs and a whole lot less freedom when he was in charge. He wants to do the same thing. So, like, he's not the change agent. Kamala Harris is. And so maybe that's sort of what folks are reacting to. Yeah. We are so, so grateful for joining us tonight. It's a big night.
Starting point is 01:38:16 Celebrate. It's your night. And then you have to fight tomorrow. Thanks, y'all. Thanks. Thank you. Thank you. All right, that was our conversation with Governor Shapiro.
Starting point is 01:38:25 Charlamagne was at the DNC the last couple of days. And when we come back, you kicked it with Ellie Mostel. Yes, Ellie Mostel, man. Ellie Mostel is somebody who I really enjoy. Man, he is a constitutional scholar. You know, he's got a great book out from a couple of years ago called Allow Me to Retort, A Black Guy's Guide to the Constitution. You probably see him on MSsnbc all the time and it's an article that i've been referring to a lot that he wrote for the nation uh titled it's impossible to overstate the damage done by the supreme court in this term so uh i've been wanting to sit down and talk to ellie for a
Starting point is 01:38:54 while because i've been referencing this article a lot so he was he was there last night so we pulled him up to kick it with him for a second so he can tell you about the damage that the supreme court is currently doing and will continue to do because they got lifetime appointments but we'll discuss all right we'll get into that next it's the breakfast club good morning we have ellie ellie miss all is coming up now to join us our supreme court expert is in the building angela rye will tell you ellie i have read the uh the column you wrote in the nation that it's impossible to overstate the damage done by the supreme court in this term. I've read that to so many people, given it to so many people.
Starting point is 01:39:29 I think that is one of the most important things that people should be reading right now. Thank you so much. It is the issue. To me, it's the issue of the moment. People forget the Supreme Court is a third branch of government. It has just as much power as the other two. And if you ask the Supreme Court, it has more power than the other two. Because it thinks it has a veto power over the branches of government that we elect.
Starting point is 01:39:52 So as much as I love being at the Democratic National Convention, as much as I love voting rights, according to the Supreme Court, my vote's just for show. That's right. Because they are the ones who think that they have the real power to shape the laws and rights and responsibilities in this country. So why aren't more elected officials just coming out and saying the Supreme Court is no longer a legitimate institution? Yeah, why indeed?
Starting point is 01:40:11 At some level, I'm happy they don't because I get a job. Oh, get out of here. Oh, my goodness. Why don't they say that? I think that there are a lot of reasons. One of the reasons is that we have elevated the court to the status of clergy, right? To the status of religion, right? And so we have such a genuflect and a respect for the Supreme Court that calling them to the carpet for their BS is not something that comes naturally for the other branches of government.
Starting point is 01:40:39 It certainly doesn't come naturally for older, established politicians. I think that's one problem. The second problem is that, especially on my side of the aisle, on the black left, on the progressive left, we have institutional memory of when the court was good, of when the court was a leader for civil rights, a leader for voting rights. And so we look back on those days and we think, well, we shouldn't be too harsh on the court now just because they don't agree with us people forget the warren court that era
Starting point is 01:41:08 that i'm talking about that was about like 15 years for the other 220 years that has been one of the most reactionary branches of government in in the country it has routinely kept its foot on the neck of black and brown folks in this country and you can go all the way back to 1857 the dred scott decision where the court not the constitution not even the slavers who wrote the constitution put this in their document but the supreme court said a black man has no rights the white man is bound to respect that was a court decision not a constitutional amendment right that's 1857 that's our civil war you can go all the way up to to 1908 plus eb ferguson that's the supreme court that said separate but equal is just fine and does not violate the 14th amendment that people just fought and died and fought a whole war over right that's
Starting point is 01:41:54 the supreme court decision so if you look if you take a longer view yeah the court's always on its bs yeah and ellie no as you as you leave us, can I say one more question before we get to that? So it's just a narrative that I'm seeing. Like the more people call out the Supreme Court, they say that people are. As a kid, I really do remember having these dreams and visions, but you just don't know what is going to come for you. Alicia Keys opens up about conquering doubt, learning to trust herself, and leaning into her dreams. I think a lot of times we are built to doubt the possibilities for ourselves. For self-preservation and protection, it was literally that step by step.
Starting point is 01:42:40 And so I discovered that that is how we get where we're going. This increment of small, determined moments. Alicia shares her wisdom on growth, gratitude, and the power of love. I forgive myself. It's okay. Like grace. Have grace with yourself. You're trying your best. And you're going to figure out the rhythm of this thing.

Starting point is 01:46:39 Join us over at Broken Record to hear stories behind the legendary label. Listen on the iheart radio app apple podcasts or wherever you listen to podcasts we're calling out the supreme court now because it has a conservative majority so could you tell us why it doesn't matter what the party majority is what they're actually doing yeah so there are two answers to that question one yeah i hate their decisions and i'm willing to do anything i can to stop them, because their decisions are taking away rights.
Starting point is 01:47:06 I don't run away from saying I'm mad at the current Supreme Court. But the higher ideal here is that the Supreme Court as a whole has too much power. And I'd be saying that if it was the Democrat or Supreme Court or the Republican Supreme Court, because the people in the system that are supposed to have the power are the voters. That's right. And the Supreme Court comes over the top of the voters and tells us what we're allowed to vote for, what we're allowed to believe, what we're allowed to pass
Starting point is 01:47:33 legislatively. And that was never the intention. So my last answer to your question, Federalist 78. So the Federalist Papers are like the John Adams and Alexander Hamilton writing about what the Constitution is supposed to be. There is one Federalist paper about the Supreme Court. It's called Federalist 78.
Starting point is 01:47:50 And in Federalist 78, Alexander Hamilton says the Supreme Court should be the least dangerous branch of government because it has neither the power of the purse, that means it can't raise taxes, or the power of the sword, that means it doesn't have an army. The next time Alexander Hamilton would be as wrong, he'd be firing his gun up into the air in New Jersey. Damn. That's how wrong that man was, right? And so we need to get back to a, dare I say, conservative,
Starting point is 01:48:15 dare I say, founding principle of the Supreme Court not being up our ass the entire time. Damn. That's what I'm saying. Ellie, I am so grateful for you. You know it. We love your passion. Absolutely. Every time. Alright. Well, that was your conversation
