New Year's. Tuesday. Today is Tuesday. Hold on, before you do the news, let me just do a quick sports. Last night, the Lions beat the Seahawks 42-29, and the Titans beat the Dolphins 31-12, and we just got to send a rest in peace to two legends. Dikembe Mutombo, NBA legend. You know, he was known, if you don't really watch basketball,

he was the one with the finger that always, when he blocked somebody's shot, he would wave the finger at them. That was Dikembe Mutombo. One of the greatest defensive players of all time. Also, he was a global ambassador for the NBA. That's right. He died from brain cancer at the age of 58 and also 58 is so young man it is and also major league baseball uh pete rose he's the all-time hits leader he died at the age of 83 yesterday and they wouldn't put him in the hall of fame because

he had a little gambling problem but i bet you they'll put him in now yeah and they had a i guess he had the gambling problem when he was a coach right not when he was a player right when he was coach i don't remember yeah so all right. All right, Morgan, good morning. Good morning. Yeah, yeah, good morning. So let's get into it. More details are surfacing about the devastating impacts of Hurricane Helene. President Biden said he is deploying every available resource to the areas impacted by the storm.

More than 120 people across several states were killed by the monstrous storm, with the death toll likely to rise as there are still people missing. Areas like Asheville, North Carolina are dealing with what's being described as biblical flooding. Thousands of people remain unaccounted for and millions are still without power in the southeast. Let's hear from President Biden on his remarks regarding the storm. It's not just a catastrophic storm. it's a historic history-making storm. Entire Southeast and Appalachia. Damage from the hurricane stretches across at least 10 states. Storm surges up to 15 feet and record flooding. Communities are devastated.

Loved ones waiting, not sure if their loved ones are okay. I'm committed to traveling to the impacted areas as soon as possible. But I've been told that it would be disruptive if I did it right now. We need to do something for Asheville. Like, you know, I got a call yesterday from my good brother Bakari Sellers, and I know water is one of the things that they need. So I hit Envy up because he got his positivity water, so we're going to try to get some water down there. Yeah, we're going to try to get some down there. You know, the crazy thing is with the positivity water, guess there's a water shortage so water is flying off the shelves

but i spoke to my distributor we're gonna try to uh set something up for the by the end of the week very very nice yes biden said the government will continue to send help to the region as long as it takes to finish the job he is expected to visit uh those communities impacted by the storm sometime this week meanwhile vice president hair she is reiterating the same thing that President Biden is saying, his remarks, saying the federal government will do everything it can in its power to help those impacted by the storm. Now, she visited FEMA headquarters yesterday to thank those workers for their response to the storm. Let's hear those comments from VP Harris. The devastation from Hurricane Helene is immense. Millions of Americans are without power. Thousands of families have lost their homes.

Entire neighborhoods have been destroyed. President Biden and I and all of the folks behind me are with you. We will continue to do everything we can to help you recover and to help you rebuild. So far, more than 3,300 federal personnel are on the ground to assist with recovery efforts. They are deploying food, water, and generators. She also said that she plans to visit the impacted areas as soon as possible, but again, disrupting without trying to disrupt any of the emergency response operations. Yes, we'll continue to keep those people our thoughts and prayers

and kudos to you and V4 for doing what you can to get resources to them. And it is VP debate night. Republican VP candidate and Ohio Senator J.D. Vance will face off against Democratic candidate Minnesota Governor Tim Walz in a CBS hosted debate tonight at 9 p.m. Eastern.

There will be no audience and the mics will be open. Now, former President Trump, he was asked if he gave any advice to J.D. Vance. And here's what Trump had to say in regards to Vance at the debate. I think J.D. is going to do great. He's a very smart guy. He's done a great job. People like him a lot.

No, he doesn't need it. I will. But we've been speaking a little bit back and forth. I think he's in good shape. He said he doesn't need it. I will. We've been speaking a little bit back and forth. I think he's in good shape. He said he doesn't need too much of his advice. But, yeah, Trump also said that he will be doing personal play-by-play of the VP debate. He wrote on his Truth Social platform that he'd be watching the debate between the running mates of J.D. Vance and, of course, Tim Walz, adding that he hopes Harris watches the debate too as he live blogs the event.

So that could be must-see TV and must-see social media. I want you all to know it's not going to be a wash. It's not going to be like when Trump went against Biden and Trump washed Biden. It's not going to be like Harris against Trump where Harris washed Trump. It's not going to be like that with these two. Because I think that J.D. Vance doing all of this Sunday morning television that he's been doing the past few weeks, I think that's prepped him very well because he's been asked a lot of tough questions.

He gives terrible answers, but he still gives answers nonetheless. I think that when Tim Walz tries to paint him as weird, as soon as J.D. hits him with the tampon, Tim, and says you tried to put tampons in the boy's bathroom. You know, I think that's going to make America be like, what? He did what? I don't think that has been as loud as it probably could be. But I think after tonight, it will be.

And people are going to be looking at Tim Walz like, he did what now? And them Trump commercials that we were talking about yesterday ran crazy last night. That's what I'm saying. They ran crazy last night, too. They keep running them transgender commercials during football. During the game.

Kamala Harris wants to spend your taxpayer dollars on prison inmate trans sex changes. Like, what? Yep. Hopefully they can stick to the policies, you know. No. You know that ain't happening. They're not doing that. Nope.

No. You know they're not going to do that. All right. Well, here's to hoping. We'll talk more in the 7 o'clock hour. We'll get caught up with what's going on in New York with Mayor Adams. All right. And everybody else, get it off your chest. Eight hundred five eight five one oh five one.

If you need to vent, phone lines are wide open again. Eight hundred five eight five one oh five one. It's the Breakfast Club. Good morning. The Breakfast Club. This is your time to get it off your chest. Whether you're mad or blessed.

I worked for the federal government for about 10 years, and I want his perspective and his opinion on the New York mayor being indicted by the feds, but yet Donald Trump is whatever. But Clarence Thomas is sitting on the bench at the Supreme Court. Like, how does he feel about that? And do you feel like it's a double standard um i don't even know if this standard i don't even know if this standard is double i just think it's no consistency across the board and that's why you know i get upset when i see uh you know democrats when i saw people say like you know oh he should step down he should re he should resign'm like, well, he is still innocent until proven guilty. And the thing I do respect about Republicans,

Republicans don't do that to their people. They ride till the wheels fall off. They ride till the wheels fall off. And even when the wheels fall off, they still keep trying to drive the car.

People shouldn't be stressing when Christmas time comes. That's right. You know? I was in a hair store yesterday, and there was this dad in there with his two babies.

And he was definitely like, I think he was drunk, like I could smell it on him. And he was like, he literally said to me, don't mind me. I'm just a single dad trying to figure it out. It's really rough right now. And I was like, man. Like, I just felt so bad for him. It was nothing I could do. But I just was like, dang, I hope stuff do get better. You trying to get head for his daughters?

No, it was his two sons. I think one of his sons had eczema. I was helping him figure out, like, a cream for the eczema or whatever. And as he was talking to me, I guess he noticed that I noticed he was drunk. And he was like, I'm just trying to figure it out. I'm a single dad. And I was like, don't worry about it. So they checked out or whatever.

But when I left, I was like, dang, all I could do is, like, pray for him. But it's just crazy because I'm like, he a single dad and i was like don't worry about it so they checked out or whatever but when i left i was like dang all i could do was like pray for him but it's just crazy because i'm like he a single dad i don't know he probably financially trying to figure it out i don't know why he's a single dad it's just a lot don't say all you can do is pray for him prayer is very powerful i mean i just felt like i wanted to do more how much is that i paid for it yeah it wasn't they they only had like uh the white and blue lotion on the, I have no idea what that is. Yeah, and some hair grease. He didn't know what to pick out,

How did this go from prayer is powerful, you know what I'm praying about next? No, I'm just asking, did you still have, to rebuke the demons on that side of the room? No, I'm asking,

To rebuke the demons on that side of the road. Did you still have your braids? Because he probably was like, damn, I know she, you know, clearly need it. But she looked out for me, you know?

She still looked out for me. First of all, I didn't. The braids was out. It was just like the little, you know, the little, my hair was just like, oh, he probably was like. Oh, so he probably was like,

Talk to me. Yesterday it was announced that there is a new Chris Brown documentary. This documentary will be airing on ID, Investigation Discovery. Let's take a listen to the trailer that they dropped yesterday. Chris Brown is the man. Get used to that right yesterday. Chris Brown is an amazing and talented musician. But let's call a thing a thing. He's an abuser of women. Consistently.

Unapologetically. Did Chris pull a gun on that girl? What is your hearing for your restraining order? There's a long list of various different women who've accused chris brown of assaulting them singer chris brown has been detained in an alleged case of rape he has an audience full of assault deniers no i have not spoken about this matter publicly but that's the only way that he can be stopped. So this documentary, and there's been several documentaries over the last couple of years following all of the incidents that have happened with Chris Brown. But this documentary airing on I.D. was shared with the caption Chris Brown, a history of violence charts Chris Brown's past all the way back to

his troubled childhood explores the lasting impact of the cycle of abuse and poses the question how does a man with such a violent public record maintain his superstar status with expert and cultural commentary layered throughout the documentary provides thoughtful reflections into each survivor's experience in a psychological destruction in the aftermath of their abuse. Now, when this hit the timeline, it hit like it was Variety, Hollywood Reporter, X, Instagram. And as always with Chris Brown, I believe that 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, 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.

Daphne Caruana Galizia was a Maltese investigative journalist who, on October 16, 2017, was murdered. There are crooks everywhere you look now. The situation is desperate. My name is Manuel Delia. I am one of the hosts of Crooks Everywhere, a podcast that unhearts the plot to murder a one-woman Wikileaks. Daphne exposed the culture of crime and corruption that were turning her beloved country into a mafia state. And she paid the ultimate price. Listen to Crooks Everywhere on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. why are we seeing this right now? We've seen so many documentaries and heard so much about this. But there are other people on the other side

that every single time, you know, someone says that, people are like, well, he should always be reminded because this is what happened. And in this documentary, from what I can tell from the trailer, of course, they're going to go into the Rihanna,

which happened back in February 2009 when he was 17 years old. And Karrueche, that situation, she's also shown in documentary as well they were together from 2011 to 2015 she filed a restraining order in 2017

and then there is a another person who we don't know the identity of that is also it seems like is that the voice that they

the voice that's kind of chopped and screwed yeah that is like speaking out on something as well too there's hashtags being used like no excuse for abuse so

I wonder if they spoke to the victims though i wonder if they spoke to rihanna if they spoke to carucci because that might be triggering to them they might not want that out there they might not want their name involved with this i'm not well we don't know all we have is a trailer right now i just for me when i saw it i was just like at i just didn't understand like why like why right now like we everybody no there's not too many people right now who don't know his past what has happened it's just like why stir it up and they just and then recently id um they did a doc uh diddy documentary as well too it came out already let me double check that but yeah but there i mean this would be like the third diddy

documentary already right because tmz did one one as well which I understand because that's relevant it's topical right now. How do you do a documentary right now when he's still going through it? The case is still going on. Because we don't know the truth we don't know what's right or what's wrong we don't know what's factual and what's not factual. There's still so much information like we don't know what he is charged of but it's like

for instance TMZ did one documentary it took you through everything that led up to where we are now. Cassie's filing on that. And then it's like, stay tuned for more. Now they just dropped another one where we now have the attorney talking through the case. Well, the bail and the baby oil and all that stuff. They're going to keep you going along.

But I just say this to say that I feel like with the Chris Brown stuff, news-wise, topically, right now, in my opinion, I wasn't looking for this. It caught me off guard when I saw it on the timeline. Well, the problem I have with the documentary, like the Chris Brown documentary, is when it comes to the victims and alleged victims, these networks aren't doing it because they are trying to actually raise awareness to anything. They are just capitalizing off trauma.

Are they giving the proceeds that they will make off the documentary to any domestic violence organizations, any mental health organizations, any organizations that help people work through trauma? If not, then they're just profiting off people's pain. And I don't like that. Are any of the proceeds going to any of those things? I'm looking at, you know me, I'm looking at it right now. And in Chris's case, I don't know how you create these kinds of documentaries based

off allegations. If you're reporting on things that actually happened, things he's been arrested for, I get it. But putting a new accuser on there, having her face covered up, distorting her voice, how do we know that's even real and not something done for TV? And shouldn't that person be going to the police or suing him? How do you go to shoot a documentary first? And why would a person at a network want them to do a documentary before they go to the law or take legal action? I'll tell you why. Because they care about producing a show and getting ratings more than they do

allege victims. I mean, that's television, right? But at the same time, I think a network like ID who does these things, I'm sure they have a legal team that is going to make sure that even if it's just alleged, there's ways around. But why would you, if somebody came to you and told you that story, why is your mind to say, okay, let's put them on TV? Wouldn't you tell them to go take legal action action wouldn't you tell them to go to the law

first why would you just exploit that story as a person or id as a network because id as a network they need to make their money is always a hot button topic no matter what they want to get money though it is whack it's horrible that's the content era that we live in you know what i mean controversy cells that's why now to answer your question id does have a no excuse for abuse campaign and it's now in it's third year in partnership with No More Foundation and this is an effort to stem domestic violence and sexual assault

oh it has an effort to stem domestic violence and sexual assault and it's aim is to shed light on the dynamics of intimate partner violence with programming and resources. So they do provide resources and a lot of their programming is dedicated to empowering individuals and communities through these programs and the different campaigns they do the proceeds from these doc going to that campaign i don't know

that exactly however they do say that they provide resources to show survivors that their loved ones it's show survivors and their loved ones that they are not alone and that there is help available so that it seems that way but i can't answer that it's just wild to me that an alleged victim would come to you and tell you this story and your mindset is let's put them on television yeah let's look like i want to know that the person i would have encouraged the person to go take legal actions or go to law enforcement why you just put a camera in their face yeah whether you black the mic and change their voice or not like why is that your mindset i never liked that. Whether you blacked them out and changed their voice or not. Like, why is that your mindset? I never liked that.

And I never liked the fact that they could just do documentaries on somebody's life and not get it authorized. Like, we could just do a documentary on Lauren. Yeah, you could. You could. But that ain't right. But it's your life story. I'm telling your life story.

That's whack. I mean, right now, that'd be a short story. You gotta give her some time. Oh. Oh. Oh, just because yours is like tribal decades old. It is. I'm there. You fossil fuel. Like, don't. Please relax. I've been around. Oh, just because yours is like tribal decades old. It is. I'm there.

You fossil fuel. Like, don't. Please relax. I've been around. Yeah. We know. They're working on dots on us right now. You're worn out.

We know you've been around. You're worn out. I've been around. Flipped upside down. Baby-wooled all around. We know. It's called longevity. Flipped upside down.

It's called longevity. You know about that. Inconsistency. Okay? We've been around for a while. You know? All right. 15 years here.

All right, gals. All right, gals. Gals. Gals. Envy. Yes, ma'am i'm gonna do a documentary it's called the trauma that is the trauma what you are trauma and you cause the trauma mr mental health all right well that is just with the mess with laura la rosa when we come back we got front page news and then congressman byron donalds from florida will joining us. So don't go anywhere. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning.

You're checking out The Breakfast Club. Good morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Jess Hilarious, Charlamagne Tha Guy. We are The Breakfast Club. Lauren LaRosa filling in for Jess. Let's get in some front page news. We had some quick sports last night. The Lions beat the Seahawks 42-29.

The Titans beat the Dolphins 31-12. What's up, Morgan? What's up is October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month, okay? Make sure you check out the Tata's. It aims to promote screening and prevention of the disease, which is the second leading cause of death in the U.S. Breast cancer is one of the most commonly diagnosed

cancers in women, and it also impacts men, whether you believe it or not. It also increases with age. About 83% of breast cancer diagnoses each year are among women age 50 and older. So the daughters, the moms, check out the ta-tas. Ladies, check out your ta-tas. All right, so here in New York, Mayor Adams is seeking dismissal of bribery charges against him. Adams' lawyer, Alex Shapiro, is asking a federal judge to throw out one of the charges in the five-count indictment against Adams, calling it extraordinarily vague.

Now, Shapiro argues that the accusations against Adams don't meet the federal definition of bribery and cited a recent ruling from the U.S. Supreme Court in June that ruled that public corruption didn't apply to gifts and payments meant to reward public officials. Now, the mayor pled not guilty to accepting luxury travel benefits and illegal campaign donations from Turkish officials, allegedly in exchange for political favors. Yesterday, Mayor Adams spoke to reporters over calls to resign and reiterated that now is not the time to quit, but to step up. Let's hear from Mayor Adams. And continue to deliver for the city. The attorneys will handle the legal aspect of it.

I'm going to stay focused. And you heard me say it over and over again. Stay focused, no distraction and grind. All of y'all hear that in your sleep. The countless number of people who have called me, text me, stop me on the street and say, listen, do what you're doing, Eric. Keep doing what you're doing. You brought this city back. Adams did go on to say he did nothing wrong, and of course, time will tell. He is due back in court on Wednesday at the same time. He's hinting that he's got a story to tell.

He spoke to the community church over the weekend, and it says he's focusing, he is focused on his job, but he's also writing a book. Let's hear from Adams on his book. This is going to be a bestseller. Get that best bottle of wine that you have. those of you are into cannabis you can roll the joint and just sit down and read my book he needs to relax just a little no I don't maybe he doesn't why not not right

now no no I'm gonna tell you why and You know what, though? Maybe he doesn't. Why not? Not right now. No, no, no. I'm going to tell you why. And you know what? It just doesn't feel right when you have someone like Donald Trump running for president. Because Donald Trump is out here selling everything. Donald Trump was just online selling $100,000 watches just this weekend. Charlamagne, you are very smart.

What is the difference between Donald Trump and Mayor Eric Adams? I know that. But even though I know Eric Adams is black and Donald Trump is white, I still don't like it. It just doesn't feel right when we're saying this person should stand down, and Mayor Eric Adams. I know that, but even though I know Eric Adams is black and Donald Trump is white, I still don't like it. Like, you know, it just doesn't feel right when we're saying this person should stand down, but then this person

is running for the highest office in the land. Well, not only that, unless he feels like he can't get his story out the correct way, that he will never be able to process his own story,

so he puts it in a book so people could actually read his story before he goes on trial. That could be something. I just don't like it. I want us as Americans and us as a society to have consistency.

You know what I'm saying? Mayor Adams said people will be amazed by what has happened in his life for the last two years and 10 months. So like you said, Envy, maybe he want to tell his story. He want to get it out there before anybody else can. Of course, he has had several conversations with New York Governor Kathy Hochul regarding this whole incident, who does have the power to remove him. She says she's not planning to take any action on removing Adams from office right now.

Following his legal troubles, Hochul was asked what it would take to remove Adams. And here's what she had to say in regards to that. I'm not going to stand here and give it right now. My responsibility is to make sure that New York City functions at a highly effective level and I'm monitoring the situation and watching for that to occur. I'm giving the mayor an opportunity now to demonstrate to New Yorkers and to me that we are riding the ship, that we have the opportunity to instill the confidence that I think is wavering right now and to power forward

with an effective government. And she's right. You know, it just doesn't feel right that we as a people hold one person to a higher standard than the other. This is why people don't know right from wrong

because we treat everybody differently. When you have somebody like Donald Trump running for president of the United States of America with all the charges that he's had, the things that he's been convicted of, why are we so quick to say, you know what? Nah, Eric Adams, you got to step down.

Nah, Eric Adams, you should resign. Nah, Eric Adams should be removed. I don't like that, personally. And I don't have a dog in the fight either way. I just don't like it. It don't look right. Keep that energy. And one last story out of Georgia.

A state judge is striking down Georgia's six-week abortion ban. Major news. This decision allows the procedure to resume, and it makes abortions legal up to 22 weeks of pregnancy. Now, Fulton County Superior Court Judge Robert McBurney issued the order on Monday that says abortions must be regulated the same way they were before the law took effect. Georgia's abortion law took effect in 2022 after Republican Governor Brian Kemp signed it into law in 2019. So we will continue to watch what's going on. And that's your front page news.

Now, when we come back, Congressman Byron Donalds from Florida will be joining us and we'll talk to him next. So don't go anywhere. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. The Breakfast Club. Morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Jess Hilarious, Charlamagne Tha Guy.

We are The Breakfast Club. Jess is on maternity leave, so Lauren LaRose is filling in. We also have our sister Angela Rye with us this morning. The host of the Native Land podcast. That's right. And we got a special guest in the building. He's from Brooklyn. The brother, Byron Donalds, also with the FAMU, too.

HBCU. FAMU. There you go. 96.99. Welcome, brother. So how'd you become a, well, I guess, because, you know, in New York, it's considered such go 96 99 so how'd you become a well i guess because you know in new york is considered such a liberal place how did you become a conservative oh man politics came late for me in life you started as a democrat right yeah i was registered democrat um didn't

really care about politics i think a lot of people like that in the country they just register as whatever family or friends are not really thinking about it my career was finance so i graduated with a degree of finance marketing from florida state i had too much fun career was finance so i graduated with a degree of finance marketing from florida state i had too much fun at famu so i had to transfer okay so i transferred to fsu got my degree there started in my career worked in banking worked in insurance and then do a financial collapse of a weight my company had international clients and they were saying we need to get information for our clients so we can keep the investment so i started doing the research because i worked in banking for five years. And when I did the research, one of the last things

I did was watch the House Financial Services Committee in Congress. First time I ever watched a congressional committee. And I watched it. And really, for me, it was that the members didn't know what they were talking about. I was like, who are these people? You know, I was 29 at the time, 29, 30. And I'm thinking, who are these guys? They don't know what they're talking about. A lot of stuff doesn't make sense. And so that's really what sort of had me starting to think about politics. And, you know, the journey kind of went from there. But I got to tell you both, my son, he's sitting at home, my son, Mason, he graduated from Florida State. We know that Donald Trump committed $255 million annually to HBCUs. What obligation does Florida have to properly fund FAMU to ensure Rattlers like yourself are properly educated with the resources they deserve? Well, I mean, thank you for the question. I think that the disparities you talk about

between some of the, you know, I guess probably more prolific universities in our state like UF and FSU versus FAMU and from some of the younger universities like UWF, UNF, etc. It's something that when I was in the state legislature, we actually talked a lot about. My last year in Tallahassee, there was a project for the Student Services Building. It was about a $25 million contract project. Myself and members on the Democrat side of the aisle, we worked with the leadership in Tallahassee and then Governor DeSantis to make sure that FAMU got the money they needed to build that project out completely. And so that's something specifically I worked on. I think going forward, that is something we got to definitely address. I totally agree with that. So funding that is on par through all universities is important. I do agree. But we also have to address the realities that's pushing every high

school student into college with the false reality that a college degree is going to make you successful. It's not going to help them help help them for successful term because they're going to be burdened with the cost of that degree going to the real world. And they realize, oh, wait a minute. I can't get a job with the degree I have. Not all degrees are the same. I believe personally an accounting degree, a finance degree like I have, an engineering degree, a law degree that has more economic value overall in the economy than a marketing degree, which I also have, or a communications degree or a psychology degree or philosophy degree, etc. If you can get into psychology and make that work for yourself. So I think there's multiple layers to college education that we need to address. I want to go back a little bit. So you were arrested before for marijuana.

Yeah. You're arrested for bank fraud. Yeah. You're also of Caribbean descent. Yeah. Jamaican. Yeah. fraud yeah you're also of caribbean descent yeah jamaican yeah when you hear donald trump talk about some of the other brothers that were arrested and taking out that full ad in the paper or you hear them talking about haitian people eating dogs and cats you still stand by them and what they believe and if you do why well a couple things first given a second chance because like like we should have like you should have been but yeah you know why do you still stand by them if you do well i think you also got to acknowledge that when he was president he also did the first step act which undid a lot

of the issues with the 94 crime bill that a lot of politicians including the current president were for he undid that when he was president of the united states i think second chances are important in society um i think everybody's afforded them you know what happened with the central park five um i was probably sixth seventh grade eighth grade when that was going down in new york yeah i can't really speak to that but what i also it was all over the paper oh i know it was all it was everywhere you couldn't escape it around the same way so we seen it everywhere you couldn't escape it but what i would also add is that in 2000 um donald trump was a member of the reform party most people don't talk about this he was a

member of the reform party when david duke joined Reform Party, he left. He famously said, I can't be associated with that party because they let David Duke come in. That man is a Klansman. When he bought Mar-a-Lago, he desegregated Mar-a-Lago. At the time when he bought it, only white people were allowed in Mar-a-Lago. He desegregated that, allowed black people and Jewish people to take a man in his totality. I know the man today. And then when you couple that with the economic policies, the energy policies, the foreign policy, we have to acknowledge the reality that in the world today, the United States is in the midst of two conflicts, not directly, but indirectly. We just sent troops over into the Middle East because of the growing conflict with our ally Israel having to essentially secure its sovereignty and its protection from Hezbollah and Hamas. Well, when Donald Trump was president, we didn't have to do any of that. So I acknowledge the stuff that you're talking about that happened in the past, but I think you have to take a man on the full record. And when he was president, he did release a lot of black people from prison. He did that. He did try to reform some of the criminal justice

system. He did that as well. And so that work is just as important as something that he might have said back during the Central Park fight. On the same point, you talked about taking the man in his totality. So do you think Donald Trump should be held accountable for his role in the January 6th insurrection? First of all, I would tell you that everybody's responsible for their own actions. Just like I'm not going to blame friends or blame anybody else for the things I've done wrong in my life. I'm not going to put that on him. Donald Trump authorized 10,000 National Guard troops. I'm on the oversight committee.

He actually authorized 10,000 troops on January 4th, two days before January 6th, obviously. So if you're going to say that you incited an insurrection, how are you also going to authorize 10,000 National Guard troops to be at the Capitol? Are you inciting or are you also going to authorize 10,000 National Guard troops to be at the Capitol? Are you inciting or are you not? Because the record is he authorized the troops. Nancy Pelosi and Mario Bowser, the mayor of D.C., did not want the troops at the Capitol. Mario Bowser signed a letter on January 5th, wanting the National Guard troops to be on traffic duty in D.C. Here's the funny thing about January 5th, 2021, is that nobody was in D.C. Because D.C.'s rules rules around covid 19 had the entire city

shut down the streets were empty during this time so the national guard that was authorized by donald trump were on traffic duty when there was no traffic when they could have been at the capitol that's the history of january 6th so your question is well did he did he incite a riot well i never seen somebody inside what i said because i don't want to catch up i'll make one point i'm making one but here's here's the main thing because we can actually go past qualified immunity because this is the place where you've refused to answer both on donald trump's accountability and on the law enforcement that you love so dearly right what we know is that he's seeking full immunity like the same immunity he how he now has because of the Supreme Court, because of the corruption of the Supreme Court.

We have now gone beyond civil presidential immunity to criminal presidential immunity. He would like to give that same immunity to law enforcement. True or false? Well, let's let's expand that a couple of things. True or false? You can't ask a true or false, Angela, because you got to explain the details. No, see, this is the problem. I don't want you to explain the details because when you explain the details

angela the details of what are things that matter you gotta explain the details or then you just talk and then explain if you don't if you don't explain the details then you're just talking you don't want to say that because you know that it's not true that is not true you want a true or false statement i want to know i don't want to argue with you. I want to explain the facts. Angela, I don't want to argue with you. I would like to know if you've ever experienced racism in this country, Congressman. Yeah, actually I have. Okay. Do you believe America is a racist country? No, I don't. So please tell me how America is not a racist country. 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, 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 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.

There are crooks everywhere you look now. The situation is desperate. My name is Manuel Delia. I am one of the hosts of Crooks Everywhere, a podcast that unhurts the plot to murder a one-woman Wikileaks. Daphne exposed the

culture of crime and corruption that were turning her beloved country into a mafia state and she paid the ultimate price listen to crooks everywhere on the iheart radio app apple podcasts or wherever you get your podcasts first thing i would say is that our past is a dark one. It really is. We can't walk away from that. We had whole laws that were subjugating black people in the south of this nation for decades after the Civil War. We can't walk away from that one. I believe that in America, we have great people in this country. And we have some people, quite frankly, that even I can't stand. But they're the vast, vast, vast minority of people in our country.

Most people just want to live in harmony and peace that's what they that's what they really want all right we got more with congressman byron donalds when we come back it's the breakfast club good morning everybody it's dj nv jess hilarious charlamagne the guy we are the breakfast club laura rosa filling in for jess we're still speaking with congressman byron donalds from Florida. Angela Rye. So speaking of moving underneath the feet of the parties, you want to talk about policy. And so I want to just play quickly what you said

about reparations. I don't believe in reparations. Well, then you don't believe in the black community. So you don't believe in reparations? Oh, wow. Why did y'all play the rest of the clip, man? I was on fire during that one. Because, Byron, I think it's important for people to get your gays and nays just like you have to do on the House floor. You have to take a up or down vote on an issue.

You took a down vote on this and you haven't supported H.R. 40. So if you want to talk about the complexities of reparations, whether or not there should be a study in this country you again have said that this country is not racist and even though it's how it has a dark past it doesn't sound like you think it has a dark present you have not sponsored uh that bill you haven't co-sponsored that bill why not well a couple things one that's why i wish you played the clip because i actually went to very but i will uh a couple things is all right how many people in the united states today are actually descendants of slave owners forget descendants of slaves Let's hold that to the side. Descendants of slave owners. You've had massive immigration into the United States over the last 150 years. So now you're going to say that people who immigrated to the United States who are not descendants of slave owners were not descendants of that trade. Now they're going to be responsible for paying that out going forward. My mother's Jamaican. My father's Panamanian. You have a lot of black people in this country who are not descendants of the American slave trade. So I already know off top there's a lot of black people in America who aren't going to be able to get that kind of benefit or get reparations.

Well, most people who are for reparations, they feel like it should go to what they call foundational black Americans anyway. And I agree with that point i agree with that point but i'm just saying i'm just laying out these are the reasons for why why i'm no so while i'm so now you support reparations for what lenard just deemed as quote foundational black americans no no no i i don't know but i want to explain that i want to explain that and so that's why you have a lot of people saying okay well then what are we going to do and so my fault my view is is that what you do going forward is this why you have to have of people saying, okay, well then what are we going to do? And so my view is, is that what you do going forward is this way you have to have wholesale changes in economic, medical policy, et cetera, so that the ability to access various parts of our economy and grow in our economy work for everybody, including people in our country who are quote unquote, foundationally black. Now let me translate to what's happened in California. So there was a

bill in California for reparations, the California Assembly, which is massively Democrat. They didn't move that bill. They could have moved that bill. When they were asked why they weren't moving that bill, they they tucked tail and turn and turn around away. They didn't even have that. They didn't even have the guts to actually answer that question. So I'm here with y'all. I'll tell you why I'm enough. But you have Democrats who will say therefore something. But when it comes time to actually do it, they're not there for you. They run away. They don't answer the question or and to be blunt, like the current vice president, not answering a lot of questions.

But she did say that she's for reparations. What do you want black people to have? I want them to have everything. I want them to have access to everything that this nation can do when it's running right. How do I get the legislation that provides it? Because you have a situation now where the real question is, do you need affirmative action today? Not, did you need affirmative action? The answer to that is 100% yes.

You absolutely needed it. The question is in 2024, in 2028, in 2032, do you need that now? I would argue the thing you need more now is you got to have equality in terms of the level of academic attainment for young black kids. What a young black kid needs more now than anything today is to be able to read and write. Read at grade level,

write at grade level, do math at grade level, and frankly, and beyond. That's what they need today. You know, Byron, I don't disagree with you, but I just don't trust white supremacy that much. Yeah, I'm thinking... I feel like you need that type of legislation.

I feel like you need those guardrails in place to make sure... To protect. To protect, yes, and to make sure those type of things happen you're coming out of brooklyn you don't you don't like that doesn't register with you because you talked about your mom having to move you to a private school so why now like because the kid that had to be moved out of that public school to a private school because you said that you were being trapped in a failing school you know that those schools a lot of them are still failing so why do you but you you think that if we get these things and we put these people in place that you are mentioning that all of that will just change like i don't we know that it doesn't even work that fast even if people wanted to let me put it this way because you know charlemagne

you brought up the point about you think that you need those to guard against white supremacy well i would argue is it white supremacy to lock kids in failing schools to not give them an option to go to find an academic environment that suits their interests i would argue that it would be white supremacy to basically move millions of people into our country illegally on purpose and have them overwhelm our systems here in new york city the system is overwhelmed that's just a one-party problem like i feel like the you know what's been happening at the border has been happening under so many different uh administrations redlining has to redlining is not just a full stop not not like this not like this under donald trump there are about 2.4 million people that came into the country illegally

under joe biden and kamala harris that number is easily 10 million that's what they know of it's probably more like 15 million because there's people that came to the border it's not even it's not even the same thing paul i'm gonna make my point i'm gonna make my point we talked about financial regulatory policy access to capital i would argue it actually upholds the pillars of quote-unquote white supremacy to not have free-flowing access to capital in the united states so if you're a black person trying to find a way to raise money for your business it is harder for you because you just don't even have as many avenues to go to. But the policies I advocate for, the policies that conservatives advocate for, is actually loosening up the ability for kids to find a school of their choice,

putting their parents at the head of the line, giving their parents the ability to make that purchasing decision. My mom made a purchase decision for me when it was very hard for her to put the resources together. She was barely making ends meet to do that. But she loved me, did that for me. I think if you're going to fund public education, fund the parents ability to make that decision so they can decide where their where their kids go. What's some of the policy? I think Charlemagne that gives all families, especially black families, black mothers, black fathers, the ability to have their kids go further in America than anything before. I don't think that I mean, mean, I'm not against that. I'm just also not against putting something in place

that like make sure that when that fails, because it's so many people and it will, it's already doing it right now. You trust white people more than we do. You know that, you know what I mean? It's just like, why not have something that comes in and says, okay, this kid from Brooklyn can get to go to that school because that mom didn't get that money.

However, that kid is still smart and should be able to go to that school. It's who I don't trust is I don't trust bureaucrats and I don't trust politicians coming in here saying I'm going to invest blah, blah, blah, billions. And it's going to do this. Then when you turn around later, there was no investment or the agencies or the administrators don't know what the hell they're doing to invest that money. Anyway, I'd rather give people those opportunities directly anyway i'd rather give people those opportunities directly i'd rather give people those resources directly i'd rather make sure that the rules are clear and understood by everybody so people can make decisions nothing's perfect i grant you that we are all imperfect people so the institutions we put up are going to be imperfect there's going to be failures along the way but central centralizing everything in Washington is an absolute goddamn disaster.

What do you say to people that look like you? You don't support people that look like you and that you're against. I mean, you said racism doesn't agree. It's not in this country. Talk about a lot of things. So a lot of people don't feel like that you're actually for the people that you look like. I'm for everybody, man, including the people I look like. Not for everybody.

I'm talking about the people that you look like. But I'm for them too i'm 100 i want people to thrive and succeed listen listen i came up from nothing i'm to be blunt with you i'm not even supposed to be here we talked a little bit about my past the things that i've done wrong etc the fact that i'm in this position now really is by the grace of god so what i want is for people to thrive and succeed but what i also know when you're talking about economics, when you're talking about public policy, the reality is you got to have it set up so everybody can thrive and succeed in that vehicle. Black people can thrive and succeed. All right. We got more with Congressman Byron Donalds when we come back. It's the Breakfast Club. Good morning. Morning, everybody. We are the Breakfast Club. It's DJ and V. Jess

Larry, Charlamagne Tha Guy. We are The Breakfast Club. Lauren LaRosa is filling in for Jess, and we have Angela Rye with us this morning. We're still kicking it with Congressman Byron Donalds from Florida. Angela. As a black man, how are you not concerned with the agenda that is proposed by Project 2025? To be blunt, I'm not concerned about it because nobody in the Trump campaign or Donald Trump himself is even talking about it. To be blunt with you, Angela, none of us have even read it. So here's the problem. Right. I get it. None of us is you're saying that the 25 of the 30 chapters that were written by his former staff and at least 140 people who worked for Donald Trump haven't touched it.

Are you now distancing yourself from those people? I'm happy to name names, including Stephen Miller, who I know you're very familiar with, was a very senior official in the Trump administration. And I know that we're clear about the fact that you guys are not naming it anymore because it's kind of become the boogeyman of this campaign, right? I think I might have to start saying Project 2025, to be honest with you. I'm really like, just this yourself. That's what Donald Trump has done. He's distanced himself every single time. Every time he's asked about it, he goes, I have to be honest with you. I'm really like, just this yourself. That's what Donald Trump has done. He's distanced himself every single time.

Every time he's asked about it, he goes, I have nothing to do with it. I don't even know. Donald Trump isn't here today, Byron. I know. Hold on now. Let me. You like it? I haven't read it.

So this is the thing, Charlamagne. I haven't. I just named what it does. Angela, first of all, with all due respect, I like to read things for myself before. Smart. You know what I'm saying? And that's all due respect to you. But I want to read everything for myself before smart you know i'm saying and that's all due respect to you but i want to read everything for myself before i make a judgment i will tell

you that like the heritage foundation there are think tanks all through washington you have the center for american progress and all these other think tanks they all do a bunch of policy prescriptions they all do a bunch of programs and projects i think the un has something called project 2030 that's a un project that's going on right now what i do know is that heritage foundation or any other policy group is not setting policy for donald trump donald trump's setting policy for donald trump he's are you gonna distance yourself from the heritage foundation as well byron are you saying that this is myself angela i'm not a part of the heritage foundation i haven't read it so there's not something i'm ascribing to or supporting in it.

Nobody on the Trump campaign, to my knowledge, including President Trump, hasn't. They have not read it. They're not ascribed to it. There are people who work in presidential administrations on Capitol Hill. They go to think tanks. They write up white papers all the time. That does not mean that what they write up actually becomes law. And so that's the point I'm making. So for Vice President Harris's campaign

to be talking so much about Project 2025, which Donald Trump isn't even a part of, has not subscribed to, has not said, this is my plan. When you can go to his website and you see the policies he wants to support. Which is in lockstep with Project 2025. No, it is not, Angela.

You need to stop now. Or you can read the Republican platform, which Donald Trump actually changed at our convention this year which is the policy sets of our party and what we are ascribing to and what we want to do as a party i think that's where voters need to go if there's no distinction between project 2025 the republican platform and donald trump's campaign platform how can you distance yourself from project 2025 i got i got a different question because trump has disavowed project but he did praise the heritage foundation a lot for years

of course i mean yeah we all have praised the heritage foundation but that doesn't mean we agree with that work that heritage did but here's my question what does kamala harris actually want to do because let's talk about her economic plans that she's come i'm gonna go through a couple of them she says she wants to tax unrealized gains. She wants to do price gouging or go after price gouging. Well, how are you going to do that? Because when you do that, what you're actually going to do is put downward pressure on prices in our country. When you do that artificially, what you create is scarcity of product.

So what is that? What that means is you're going to have poor people in our country who are going to have less access to goods and services because rich people don't get their goods and services no matter what. They have the access points. They're going to get them. So you're going to have less product for poor people in our country are going to have less access to goods and services because rich people don't get their goods and services no matter what. They have the access points. They're going to get them. So you're going to have less product for poor people in our country. She had a thing about she wants to do $25,000 for a new home for new first time home buyers. I think that's great. Well, no, it's not.

Because what's going to happen is it's going to increase the cost of housing $25,000. Because if you know every first time home buyer has $25,000 from the government in their back pocket, you as the seller, you're going to be like, ooh, wait a minute. Every seller writ large is going to be like, you know what? Well, then I can increase my price to $25,000. It's going to have an upward trajectory shot on housing costs in our country, which is the thing we don't need in America. Those are three economic policies I know are not willing to work. That sounds like a hypothetical. Yeah, well, I would increase that if somebody gets $25,000 from the government to purchase it.

Let's say there's 3 million first-time25,000 from the government to purchase it. Let's say there's 3 million first-time homebuyers in the United States of America. They all have an additional $25,000 of purchasing power. You do have a situation where every seller in the country is going to realize, oh, shoot, is this a first-time homebuyer? Well, I know you have an additional $25,000. When you provide that type of stimulus into an economy, what you end up doing is you increase prices in whatever that that whatever that economy is. She says she wants to build three million new homes. How are you going to do that? Let me let me explain why. Environmental policy, both at the federal and state level, makes it much harder to build housing. Whether you believe in climate change or not, weather

rising, energy efficiency, all of those regulations has made it more expensive to build housing. If the federal government says, okay, now we're going to go for 3 million new homes. Okay. Well, how's that going to work? Are you going to change the regulatory burden for building those new homes? Are you not going to have a disjointed regulatory burden between the federal house and one built in a private sector? That's not smart. You can't do that. So if you're not going to change the regulation, you're just going to pump more money into the system. What you're going to do is you're going to push up the cost for the materials to build housing, which is going to make it more expensive, not less expensive. And so if you take advantage of the home that Kamala built for you, great for you.

But for the entire economy writ large, it's not going to be good because the cost of housing is going to go up on everybody. All right. I got one real quick. Just J vance where are you at like how do you feel about where he is now and where he's taking the party to because you was you were in the running for vp at one point yeah that was crazy i know you stayed off twitter that day when they announced it wasn't you no no no no no it was good you know i told president trump i was like man whatever you do is whatever you do but jd i think jd's hit his stride and i think it's going to be a really important debate uh for the country to start hearing about

all these different policies in detail. The way Angela and I are going back through policy, I think that's important. But I think J.D.'s doing good. You know, again,

victory is what matters. He's not doing good. He's actually terrible. He's actually, he's, he's, come on, come on,

Sharla, come on, Sharla. He's actually done so much more damage to that, to that ticket. He should have made Nikki Haley the VP.

You heard Cat Lady and said, yo, he's in his stride right now? He's terrible. The Cat Lady thing, I mean, I don't agree with that, man.

I don't agree with it. I think the Haitian cat, that came from him too. Yeah, I don't agree with that either. I just don't. And I'm serious about that. Let me tell you something.

I'm serious about that. That's the one thing I do respect. One of the things I respect about Republicans is that. They ride with each other? They ride with each other.

You know what I'm saying? That's how we feel about that's how we feel about democrats man that's because that's because eric came at them well i don't go about that i'm gonna leave that alone i don't know what happened in the eric situation they were riding with joe biden until he realized that you know he wasn't with us and the second they realized he wasn't with us let's be real about this joe biden was the nominee of that debate in Atlanta two weeks ago. Didn't happen. Two months ago. Didn't happen.

We'd be talking about Donald Trump, Joe Biden. The only reason that they got rid of Joe Biden is because his poll numbers were cratering and not just for him. For Senate Democrat, Republican, for Senate Democrats and for House Democrats. And when they looked at their numbers dropping, then that's when they were like, man, show the old dude the door. We got to move on. I'm glad they made the right decision. And I wish somebody in the Republican Party would do the same

because y'all can do much better than Donald J. Trump. Nah, we're going to be good, man. We're going to make America great again. Don't worry about it. All right. Oh, Lord. Well, it's Congress.

It's a white year. It's Congressman Byron Donalds. We appreciate you for joining us, bro. Man, appreciate y'all, man. Back to Jim Crow. Oh, come on. Stop. See, there you go.

Let's get to Just With The Mess with Lauren LaRosa. News is real. We're just learning. Jessica Robin Moore.

Lauren LaRosa. I'm back. And I got the man. Talk to me. So Dikembe Mutombo, a legend, sadly passed away yesterday of brain cancer at age 58. Adam Silver actually released a statement. And in that statement, he made highlights about how Dikembe was simply larger than life on the court he was one of the greatest shot blockers and defensive players in the history of the NBA that's right he says off the floor he poured his heart

and soul into helping others some of his stats that can be played from 91 until 2009 he played for the Denver Nuggets Elena Hawks the 76ers the Nets New York Knicks Houston Rockets eight times times All-Star, four times winner of the NBA Defensive Player of the Year Award, two-time rebound leader, six-time all-defensive team, three-time blocks leader. He also dedicated his life to things outside of the NBA. He was really big on helping his home country. And he created a foundation in 1997. Within his foundation,

he opened up a hospital and a school through the charity and he also served as a first global ambassador for the NBA. That's right. So sending a resting peace to him as well. I did mention that he passed away

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.

Daphne Caruana Galizia was a Maltese investigative journalist who on October 16th, 2017, was murdered.

There are crooks everywhere you look now. The situation is desperate. My name is Manuel Delia. I am one of the hosts of Crooks Everywhere, a podcast that unhurts the plot to murder a one-woman Wikileaks. Daphne exposed the culture of crime and corruption that were turning her beloved country into a mafia state. And she paid the ultimate price.

Listen to Crooks everywhere on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. Now, this case has had so many twist turns, ups and downs. Why is it not a mistrial yet? I don't understand why this is so important. What's going on? I'm with the judge. She about to. It's about to be a mistrial already. She pissed off.

I don't know. So, basically, what happened yesterday, Judge Paige Reese Whitaker, who is one of multiple different judges, because they've had to interchange judges. She got so upset at the district attorney. The district attorney's name is Adrian Love. Let's take a ball to the extent you possibly can for as long as you possibly can. And I really don't want to believe that it is purposeful, but honestly, after a certain number of times, you start to wonder how it could be anything but that unless it is just that you are

so unorganized that you are throwing this case together as you try it and i am sorry to say that but this case is being made much more difficult for everybody now let me tell y'all this case right now uh thug's case is known as one of the longest trials in state history. I thought it was the longest. It's not the longest? Yeah. That's what I mean. I'm sorry.

The longest trial in state history as of right now. So what happened after this was, so first of all, let's back up. So she got upset because the district attorney tried to enter hearsay evidence via a witness. Now, you know, anytime any evidence is entered into a courtroom, it has to be discussion. Discovery has to happen. Both sides are supposed to know what's going on. Hearsay is always hard to bring into a courtroom. They acting like Twitter.

They literally acting like social media. They literally acting like social media. Hearsay, rumors, gossip. This person said this. This person said that. I believe this happened. I saw this on YouTube. Like, what's going on, yo?

Right. So that's why the judge got so upset. Thug lawyer was like you know what mistrial right now right now the judge denied the mistrial the judge denied the mistrial she said that she was denying it because she didn't believe the da actually was trying to get a mistrial she's just because she doesn't believe the da wants to retry the case again the judge is saying she hopes that this is just poor lowering i don't know why they're getting so much grace in this this is crazy um that's what i don't understand like social media knows every damn thing right everybody be a e-lawyer on social media you know you got all these cyber counselors but can't nobody tell me why this is not a mistrial so what is this thing

because this isn't normal no idea so what is this at this point and there's no end date like right now it's like we don't even know when this is going to end. Like it's just going to keep going and keep going and keep going and keep going. But the fact that they wouldn't, they can't,

they're not even going to grant Jeffrey a bond. Nope. Thug should have been had a bond. Like why should he have to deal with all of this for the last, well, it's been two years,

right? Two years. It's been a long time. Yeah, he was, so Young Thug was arrested in May of 2022 on these charges. so yes yeah i

don't know if they haven't built the case by now it clearly tells me they don't have one well they're trying as you can't build the cases you go along that's what the judge just said just how you building the case as we going on yeah i don't know it's the third judge by the way yes that's what i'm saying it's been different judges it's been remember his attorney was like i'll stay in jail with my client it this is literally people making documentaries they need to do this one because this needs to be a documentary this right here has been a case to watch it's every single day on twitter it's something new so that's it for the hour so much court everybody's in court well that was just for the mess with laura rosa charlemagne yes sir who you giving that down to man there's a man named jesse michael johnson he needs to come to the front of the congregation we would like to

have a word with him uh he practices what we call voyeurism jesse michael johnson yes jesse michael johnson guess what all right we'll get to it you got early on it all right we'll get to it next at the breakfast club good morning you're checking out the breakfast club you're trying to be a fake-ass Charlamagne. Some donkey today has just sold himself. I've been watching you, Charlamagne. I was ready for you. I'm a donkey. I never heard of a donkey the other day. What is it?

I'm a donkey. Say it again, Charlamagne. I'm a donkey. Yes, you are a donkey. I'll show you how to act a donkey. Everything that Charlamagne is saying is true. Donkey of the Day for Tuesday, October 1st goes to an Arizona man named Jesse Michael Johnson. Now, Jesse is 28 years old, and he was accused on three counts of voyeurism and three counts of disorderly conduct.

Now, what is voyeurism? For those who don't care to use ChatGPT or Google, voyeurism is the practice of gaining sexual pleasure from watching others when they are naked are engaged in sexual activity well jesse was arrested after allegedly crawling under several women's cars for his sexual gratification you heard what i said this man jesse was allegedly caught via camera surveillance at a superstar car wash in Arizona, hiding under women's cars so he can get a little peek. Let's go to Fox 10 for the report, please. Court documents allege 28-year-old Jesse Johnson of Chandler was seen crawling under three women's cars at the superstar car wash in Gilbert, where police say he would hide out there for several minutes, looking at and possibly recording their feet.

It's something Johnson has been arrested for before in Nebraska in 2016 and 2017. Johnson told law enforcement at that time that he sexually attracted to women's feet and that he sometimes cannot control his sexual desires regarding this. On August 29th, employees at that superstar car wash at Emmett and Riggs Roads, they say Johnson got his car washed three times that day and he would park next to women who were evacuating their SUVs. And through surveillance video and working with Gilbert police, the employees had a partial plate, and they were able to keep a lookout when Johnson came back.

And that's how police were eventually able to track him down and arrest him. Yep, that's me, Jesse Johnson. You're probably wondering how I got here. By here, I mean jail. See, I've told you all a million times. Destiny is not a matter of chance. It's a matter of choice. And some people on this planet are just hornier than others and it's that type of horniness that

leads to things like freak offs or leads to things like jesse jerking under a jaguar okay masturbating under a mazda making pearl jam under a prius all right i just don't understand as an able penis 28 year old man why do you resort to? I remember the first time I masturbated. Okay? I felt terrible. I felt terrible. I thought it was something I wasn't supposed to be doing. And I thought it was something that losers did because they couldn't get no poom-poom.

And you cried. Stop. I don't need to put that part of the story in. I just want to make sure it was clear that you cried. I did cry. Is that a public knowledge thing? If people knew that? Oh, I thought that was just like some...

Okay, personally. You cried. You cried. Like a little baby. You cried. Like, I masturbated. And then I used the tears for okay but listen i was just telling you my feelings at the time okay but i was also a teenager lo and behold i was wrong it is absolutely perfectly okay to season your own meatloaf but what is actual loser behavior is what jesse michael johnson was doing

like rock bottom wasn't low enough for this man he was playing his own game of limbo and it led him to go solo that he ended up under women's cars i just don't understand how in 2024 one ends up underneath a range rover creating tartar sauce rainbows okay there is literally nothing you can't find online porn hub literally has a voyeurism category you know how i know because i went to look for research purposes only so i don't understand humans like jesse michael johnson who has a history of sex crimes by the way he told authorities in arizona as you just heard that he is sexually attracted to women's feet and could not control his sexual desires once again there is a category for that on porn hub you know how i know because i looked for research purposes only. But there is a whole feet porn category on Pornhub.

Envy got an OnlyFans with his feet up there. Okay, Google it. That's not authorized, though. That's you. Whatever, that's you. I'm about to Google that. He does. I do.

You don't have to take penitentiary chances for your kinks anymore. Okay, what's interesting about this story is according to the surveillance footage is after he would get a peek, he would go back and pretend to clean his tires i know what you're thinking what the hell was he using to clean his tires and was he using the same lubricant to butter his muffin and clean his tires okay wait this man has more sexual history in june of 2016 he was cited four times in nebraska for allegedly hiding under cars and grabbing people's ankles. That's exactly what they're going to do to you in prison, Jesse, except they're not going to be under your car. They're going to pull up to your bumper.

Okay, oil up your ankles and make your Tim's tap, Jesse. I don't know what to say other than I wish he would have got, you know, ran over while he was under those cars. And clearly something is off with this man. But truly, it's not women's feet he's attracted to. It's not voyeurism. I think this man is attracted to the undercarriage of cars. I believe this man's true calling is to be a mechanic. Okay, looking at that undercarriage,

it just does something to him. Okay, it's where the magic happens, don't it, Jesse? You've given a whole new meaning to the term splash shield. Okay, splash shield usually protects the engine from dirt and water you know the usual stuff you'd expect under a car but nope Jesse is adding skeet to that equation okay he's using the splash shield as his own privacy curtain all right Jesse the splash shield is doing his job by keeping things clean under the hood maybe you should take a hint okay and clean up your act please give jesse michael

You think he got all of that baby oil? Okay, let me explain. You didn't buy that baby oil. Let me explain. That was a day party. Right. That wasn't a day party. This was in the gift bags on Diddy's yacht.

That was a day party. I got the history behind that. That was a day party. Okay. And I'm not, first off, it's a very interesting situation to even bring this up. Right? And I will tell y'all, and everybody knows, and I know I'll be criticized for this, and you know, Diddy throw some of the best parties you'll ever go to.

But you ain't got to be between his legs. But listen, you just got to know. You know, you got to know, I was between his legs. R. Kelly flew you in. Oh, s***. Wait, wait, wait. No, get it close. Get it close up. Yo, you gotta know I was between his legs R Kelly flew you in Have you been groomed? Ask the question. I got a question. I have a question. I have a question. I'm presenting all evidence.

My question, whose lap was better, Diddy's or Wendy's? I don't know what you're talking about. Wow. You did sit on Wendy's with that. Charlamagne, you did sit on Wendy's lap. Whoa, whoa, whoa. You're trying to skip the subject. What?

Did you? Okay, what is the definition of trafficking? What is the definition? When somebody flies you out or puts you on a boat. So both of y'all were trafficking. With the intention of what? Sex. Okay, I don't know that's the case with you.

You got flued. Yeah, we were doing a mixtape. And what? Did you ever see him? No. Did he have you in a special room? Did he have incense or anything? No, no, nothing like that. Did you ever see him? No. Did he have you in a special room? Did he have instance or anything? I had a hotel. No, no.

Nothing like that. Did you ever see him? No. So, you are a victim. I'm not a victim. You got trafficked. He flew me out to do a mixtape. They said you got trafficked to much.

You're like a crossing guard now, sir. Yo, that's what I'm saying. How you get... What song was playing? What song was playing when you was waiting in the room for him? No. He flew me out to do a mixtape. Don't say flew. Flewed.

No, he didn't flew. Flewed. You know what flew means. We were doing a mixtape. Bong, bong, bong. You know what flew means. He was mixing it up. Did you complete the mixtape?

No, I did not. But question, was you sitting in between Diddy's legs before the picture was took? I slipped. Or did you pose for that? I slipped. He posed. You were smiling. His hands are smiling.

Let me explain. You slipped and. He posed. You were smiling. His hands are be smiling. Let me explain. You slipped and you were smiling. You were here. That was a trip in St. Martin, St. Bart some years ago. And he does a holiday party every year. You were there. And I was there. I was there with a lot of other people.

Oh, now you want to snitch on other people? Oh, yeah. It was Dave. Hey, this picture crazy. I'm snitching. Y'all ain't young. It ain't just me. I don't know. Russell Simmons. Yo, yo, ain't young. It ain't just me. I don't know.

Russell Simmons? Yo, yo, yo, yo. It's the whole body squad. No, it wasn't no snitch. This is what you got to understand. You got this party, you got that party. And that party was a great party. My son was on that yacht with me.

We had a great time. So I understand now, if you say you went to any party, you just assume it was the freak off. That's what, it wasn't the case and we had a good time. You never got invited to the freak off? But I will say,

I don't know what was in that vodka because it felt like I had a hole full of hair on that yacht. I don't know, it was something special in that vodka. I was,

I felt light skin for a second. So that's why you sat between his legs? No, I didn't sit. So he started like rubbing the fake hair? No, no, no, no, no, no. I didn't sit.

Yo, he was braiding your fake hair? Yo, Don, you felt like you had, no. I didn't sit. Yo, he was braiding your fake hair? Yo, Donnell, you felt like you had hair, so you told me to sit between these. This is his knee, right? You were leaning in on his, and these is two knees? These are his two knees. There's one knee right there. I don't know what you're talking about. Now you don't recognize that knee.

That ain't me. So Diddy was pretending to braid your hair. This is, okay, so these are the knees. These are Diddy's knees, and you were in between the knees. That's Wayne Brady. That ain't me. That's somebody else. That is not me.

Hands on somebody else's needs. But I'm just saying, okay, we can assume that every party he had is not a free party. And I will say, that event was dope and I had a good time. And I'm not going to say free ditty or anything. That's all you got to say. All you got to say is, I had a great time. This is what you doing? This is not the conversation.'t do this we are friends

and i stand by my friend if you had a great time i'm not judging you i didn't say i said some stuff was consensual and then you know i'm wow you know what my brother said i will say my brother called me he said i'm mad at you no he didn't say. He said, I'm mad at you. No, he didn't say that. He said, I'm mad at you. And when you talk like that, you got to talk to him back like that. He said, I'm mad at you. I said, what you mad at me for? Right? He said, why you ain't tell me. This is what my brother said.

He said, why you ain't tell me about the Diddy party? He said, I would have signed a paper and I would have brought my own oil. That's what my brother said. Damn. He's about that life. Damn. He's about that life. And he said he want to

flu you too, Evie. Since you getting flued. Evie, you hot out here in the streets. Since you getting flued. Why we can't talk about that? I want to talk about you and Dr. Umar. You had Dr. Umar on your podcast. I did have it. It was a great interview. And he tried to do an intervention with

you because you love snow bunnies. You love snow bunnies? First off, on Easter, I've been known to hop. I'll just tell you. Only on Easter. Yo, yo. Only on Easter. In all the cases, I've been known to hop on Easter.

But Dr. Umar did do my podcast and it was a good interview but it was a conversation did he have an interview with you? he didn't have an interview

and this is what every interview every platform and this is what I wanted to do everybody has a sense of humor but you didn't know if Dr. Umar has a sense of humor

he's one of the most funniest people alive all I see him is this part of his face being wrinkled up and yelling at somebody. Pan-African American. What is it?

Pan-Africanism. Happy Pan-Africanism. Whatever it is. Tomato, tomato. Okay, I got you. But I did have a conversation where I was like,

do he ever laugh? And the first thing when he, now you can go and if you subscribe to my YouTube page, The Donnell Rawlings Show, it comes out this week.

But I had a very good conversation with him because every time you see him, it's always being angry. Why can't you create dialogue with people that you don't necessarily agree with or disagree with without being upset? And we had a great conversation. It was a great conversation. It's going to be on

my show, The Don Air Rollins Show on YouTube that you don't subscribe to. Do you subscribe to it? No, you don't. Put your phone out. See, this is what you want to do. Go to The Donnell Rawlings Show on YouTube that you don't subscribe to. Do you subscribe to it? Yeah. No, you don't. You're lying. Put your phone out. All right. See, this is what you want to do.

when we come back. Don't move. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. Good morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Jess Hilarious, Charlamagne Tha Guy.

We are The Breakfast Club. We're still kicking it with Donnell Rawlings. Charlamagne? It's been seven months since your Netflix special. Now that some time has passed, has it changed your career at all? I don't think it's changed my career, but I do think that it gave people an opportunity that wasn't familiar with me as a stand-up comedian to see that I'm a good stand-up. Okay. And you never know. It's like, it's hit or miss with that. Some of those specials, it may be something that it pops, and the you know you are you're a household name or you're

being introduced to it but it's hard i've noticed the difference in my um my ticket sales also know when i go around people you know show me a lot of love and say i really appreciate it or when you're going to do the next one but it what if it was something that just said to my career but and i tell people even before the special drop i was in a good place with selling tickets uh people being familiar with me as a what do you want to say actor comedian so it was another little notch on the belt and i'm i'm already working material if i had that situation again to do another one i did learn a lot by and that's special people always say, I seen them being funnier. I saw so-and-so.

But in that moment, that day, in that moment, I thought I was the best that I could be. I thought it was pretty funny. Did you see some of the reviews that were out there? 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, 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.

Daphne Caruana Galizia was a Maltese investigative journalist who on October 16, 2017, was murdered.

There are crooks everywhere you look now. The situation is desperate. My name is Manuel Delia. I am one of the hosts of Crooks Everywhere, a podcast that unhurts the plot to murder a one-woman Wikileaks. Daphne exposed the culture of crime and corruption that were turning her beloved country into a mafia state. And she paid the ultimate price. Listen to Crooks Everywhere on the iHeartRadio app apple podcasts or wherever you get your podcasts

no because i seem like for instance rotten rotten tomato gave you three tomatoes right three out of what three tomatoes three out of uh no three out of five actually three Three out of what? Three Tomatoes or Three Tomatoes? It's like three out of nine or ten, right? Yeah, three out of five, actually. Three stars out of five. That's not bad. That's average. You know what? I don't go by that.

Guess who? Guess who? Rotten Tomatoes. No, I just want to say this. Rotten Tomatoes gave Tyler Perry's last movie horrible reviews, but guess what it did in the box office? And guess what it did for the people that know him? So, you know, I can take that with a grain of salt, but I'm here for it.

Yeah, somebody, they said, Ash Larry cannot do stand--up his jokes are probably taken from ai chat box with bad instructions i laughed barely once you don't let him be talking to you like that but no but i'm just saying i loved it i thought it was great no continue what other comments there's somebody somebody said that it might not win any awards or hit top 10 but i will say this and this is i know you fully here's the thing what's wrong with that that my special charted for three weeks on Netflix

also not that I won anything but the special and this might not mean anything to anybody else but it made the nomination ballot

for Emmy this year so congratulations it didn't win but the fact here's the thing people are just you're not gonna win

it didn't make to the next joint in this business first thing you wanna do is be in a conversation with other people. If I could be in that conversation, that means somebody else is introduced to me and I can move on to it. Next question. Donnell Too White, that's a thing people say that to you? Too White?

Yeah. You know what? I've heard that. And I'll tell you why. I'll tell you, this is the reason why. In this business, when we first started, especially Deaf Comedy Jam Circuit, right? We did not have a lot of outlets to showcase your stuff so we had to create rooms terminal d the manhattan propers uh um the other club in jersey we had to make our own black pocket of comedy we didn't wait

for white people to say oh you come in here and then a lot of comics in my era got labeled as a deaf jam act just completely deaf jam if you did deaf jam it was hard to get booked in mainstream And then a lot of comics in my era got labeled as a Def Jam act. Just completely Def Jam. If you did Def Jam, it was hard to get booked in mainstream rooms. It could be like this, oh, he's a Def Jam act. He's only going to be talking about this. But I've been lucky enough that when I started, I realized that I need to do the Chitlin circuit. I need to do the black circuit. But I always was interested in doing mainstream and doing other stuff than just for black people.

And once in my community, once a comedian does that and he has the crossover ability, I didn't say sellout crossover ability. They assume that you are a white comic. They assume that because I have relationships with Joe Rogan and Bert Krasers and those people from it. They assume that. But anybody come to my show, you go to my show, you can't tell where my bass is. When you go to my show, you'll see black, you'll see white,

you'll see Asian, you'll see handicapped, you'll see he, she, theys, and thems. And I've been able to do that. And part of that is because I'm sure of my association with Dave Chappelle. If you go to a Dave Chappelle concert or show, it's a mixed group of people. People don't remember Dave was, everybody thought he was the white comic in the Tell Chappelle. If you go to a Dave Chappelle concert or show, it's a mixed group of people. People don't remember Dave

was, everybody thought he was the white comic in Tell Chappelle's show. I tell people all the time. There's no discredit. I was like, Dave, he was ahead of everybody. When he started with Robin Hood, Men in Tights, whatever, right? He was like the chosen one. Whoopi Goldberg, Mel Brooks, there was a fan.

And for the most part, the black community, they didn't know him like that. But the college community, like the NACA and everything, he was one of the biggest names on the college circuit, right? And Killer Me Softly was so big. Killer Me Softly. But really what broke him, and it's a credit to the team that he put together, I would honestly say the Chappelle Show is really what gave him street creds

when everybody saw that he was a beast yeah and you got talent that go through that uh chris chris rock example when chris rock was on snl he i think he felt kind of similar to where i feel like wait a minute man i'm black you know i'm saying like yes i appeal to these white people mainstream but i need that's why i wanted chris rock's biggest special was bigger and blacker and the reason why he has something to prove that's why he chose to put it at the um at the um at the apollo that's why he chose to come and let y'all know i can do this for white people but i don't care how crossover you are as a black comedian nothing's going to ever make you feel as good as being able to entertain your own people shared likes the stuff that resonates

the stuff that you talk about growing up but it's also something to be said that you can cross over i saw uh teddy swims hi he was happy who's control when i'm not next to you i love that song he saw you singing about diddy and you ain't sing about Diddy. I said this. Something got a control on me lately and I don't know myself anymore. Feels like the world is all closing in. Oh, don't you do that.

And the devil is knocking. Don't you do that. How? How many times did I tell you I don't give a f*** This is my last time up here Are you a Swifty still?

Hold on Teddy said Teddy said that was A top five moment Of his life Was what? You singing that song On stage

You didn't see that? Yeah he did I wouldn't say He slid in my DM But he communicated For me with somebody But it was good I liked the song The funny thing about it Black guy singing Being a fan of Teddy Swim Yeah, he did. I wouldn't say he slid in my DM, but he communicated for me with somebody. But it was good.

I liked the song. The funny thing about it, black guys singing, being a fan of Teddy Swim, and most black people don't swim. So that's very ironic. But I like his music. It's very passionate. And if you listen to that album, I think that I might need therapy. I forget the name of it. But that album reminded me of, it put me in the mindset of when usher did confessions when anthony helmilton did like his joint somebody that's actually going through it in their life and it

resonated through the music he's a dope artist i think that that album only came out like last year i've tried everything but therapy yep and i know you're like that because you're on that therapy that's perfect yeah you don't like a lot of those songs you'll be like just oh my god this is my life let's talk about your tour dates don'ta. I got October 4th, I'm going to be at NJ Pack, Victoria Theater. New Jersey. And then October... 10th and 12th, Improv, Illinois. I got a whole bunch of dates.

So I was like, oh my gosh, this only happened to me when I'm pregnant. Me and my baby dad, we were in very bad terms. I still called them. So I was like, hey, I'm pregnant. And we kind of laughed about it because it's like, what the that's so random. I'm thinking to myself, like, I'm like, I'm like six weeks pregnant, probably seven weeks pregnant.

When I said that, she was like, you're not like seven weeks pregnant or six weeks pregnant i'm like what she's like you're like 17 weeks pregnant yeah so she found out that's how she found out and then um she talks about the fact that she had actually went and got surgery on her body because she didn't know she

was pregnant when i did all that surgery and everything, for a long time, I was a little bit afraid because I was like, oh my God, did that ever affect my baby? Like, I got a whole surgery and everything. But deep down in my heart, I knew that I was going to have a good baby because first thing first, my OBGYN was not playing.

She sent me to the best places to make sure the baby was super super healthy and then second of all like this like i said i know for a fact that god sent me this baby himself and god wouldn't send me nothing that is wasn't gonna be right and then lastly she talked about some of her insecurities when it comes to like dropping music and just different things she's doing right now the critiques and the social medias and all that stuff i have let that get in my head for a very long time to the point that it has made me insecure with my own work with my own accent with my own self with my own attitude

like it got to the point that some people that are close to me be like yo i don't even know you anymore like it's like this has never been you when have you cared when have you cared to to drop like when have you cared about having an accent in your music when have you cared about this a lot of people be like oh it's your kids she's been delaying herself for the kids the kids and it's never really my kids i have to take accountability that is myself and i have to be more confident in myself i do feel like the internet for a long time i feel like that really traumatized me and i went for a long time, I feel like that really traumatized me. And I went for a long time with the internet traumatizing me, traumatizing me and not getting like therapy for it. Stop listening to these digital D heads on social media. That's just not for body.

That's for everybody. Like these folks online are miserable and they want to make you miserable. Who was the person on social media that gets positive feedback for anything? The fact that you even got to think about it. because i was gonna say oprah but they'd be dragging dragging over what are you talking about they'd be dragging sits but i can't call i can't talk about like that of course in that over each baby's yeah on top of pizza baby black men empanada infants all day like everything go together real bad hate black men hate black people like yes the beef patty babies I will say

yeah I will say she just got to drop I mean Cardi knows the pulse of what's going on she's outside so she's in those venues she sees what people are rocking to

I heard she does have the music so now it's just a matter of just drop she won already yep like she's really playing with house money

at this point like she's actually putting an unnecessary expectation on the music right yep like just just drop yep and let's start the podcast the black effect iheart radio podcast is ready to make an offer because if you're gonna be you know giving it up like that on social media you might as well monetize oh she does these lives all the time lives and twitter uh her x spaces she loves

keeping people in tune that would actually be really great for her that would be so great for her she needs to do it around the album doesn't even have to be long in fact she could take what she's doing on ig live and we'll post it as a podcast no charla for real no for cardi because i know you'll be listening please call because i'll be so fired around the album because i'm sure each song has such a story and she was talking about too how everybody was on her like oh you hide in a pregnancy you hide in a pregnancy she's like i really just didn't know for so long she said even her parents were like you know we know you're pregnant right and she was like please don't put no more pressure on me i just found out so it wasn't this master scheme like all of the fans and all that you know

that they thought it was um moving on dame dash jay-z y'all remember a few weeks ago we reported about the city of new york the social services department filing all these different motions and going back and forth with um jay-z's attorney on dame's behalf sort of kind of but more on the city's behalf dame said you reported this wrong so what happened okay so let me let me make sure i get it right because dame was upset because basically i said what i reported was what i knew was going to happen and i i would say i apologize if he felt away about it but i made we'll get to it so this is what happened so during that time we reported it um jay-z's side had filed this uh copyright notice right that copyright notice was basically saying

look in a year 2031 i don't want anything to be able to go anywhere else it's going to come back to me jay-z because i am the authorasonable Doubt, which was a work made for hire. His third. Right. Now, Social Services Department said because it was listed, the agreement listed it as a work made for hire. You're violating the agreement. The 2031 is not true. We need a judge to stop this auction.

We need a judge to go in, look at all the money that was made, see how much it's really worth. Because basically, Jay-Z and team allegedly are trying to make this worth less so they can come in at the end of the day swoop it um in there and they're doing that by saying oh jay-z is going to own this anyway so it's no point in buying it right so a judge recently uh made a decision after all the notices um and actually this decision screws dame dash and i actually felt a bit bad for him and i'll explain to you why in a second so the judge is saying basically I'm not about to go here with y'all so they asked for a stay of auction which would have been holding the auction off until a judge could number one determine if the notice that Jay-Z filed with the copyright offices was valid the judge said no the

court does not have the jurisdiction to do that um and what's crazy about that is is that at this point in time so the social services department who aren't dame's attorneys they work for the city they could go back in and say no judge you made a wrong decision i don't know if they're going to but if they don't at this point dame dash doesn't really even have the time they ran out the clock to go in and contest this this copyright notice right so what will happen from there is after this like all of this happens right the auction happens everything uh what they think what people think will happen is jay-z going to come in on last minute it's going to be now worthless he'll he'll get these uh he'll own uh dame stake in it the only person that will be able to even contest

um jay-z basically saying this is mine it reversed back to me in 2031 is bigs he's not gonna do that so now you x dame dash out of the conversation completely so pretty much if you are gonna bid on that you're gonna bid low because you just don't know what the hell's happening you don't know what that you don't know what's happening right you don't know at all so you bid low someone like jay-z or whoever but then jay-z has first right of refusal so whatever the lowest bid is jay-z can you can match that bid and then take the third. Basically, what Dame was claiming from the beginning was

do you remember when we spoke to him? He was claiming from the beginning that Jay-Z was basically positioning himself in a way where it was going to put everybody else in a corner. And that's exactly what this is lining up to be. That's crazy. So Dame has from what? Now to 2031 to make money off it? No.

The auction is supposed to happen. When the auction happens, Jay-Z is going to own this. So Dame don't get his third? No. If Jay-Z comes in and buys this, no. The money that will come, remember, because the state, he has taxes, he has child support, he owes lawyer fees and all that stuff to the Josh Weber guy, right? All of that

is going to be paid whatever's left dame will get but there might not even be much left because they've devalued he still owed a third or something yes but it's not going to it's not going to him though it's not going to him but he's got to pay depending on how much money it is yeah but but but what is probably and that's why the city got involved because they're like what's probably going to happen is it's going to devalue to the point where we might not even get our money. So Dame's not going to see much either because the city won't even see much. All I know is. Because you know they were best friends, right?

And that's why I feel like it's like. That's crazy. I'm like, on a friend level, it's like, dang. But on a business level, it was a shot clock move. A thug changes, love changes, best friend becomes friend. And if Dame has an issue with this, please talk to some attorneys. That was not a question. That was not a question. Dame is getting

the camera crew ready right now. There will be a video on the America New Network YouTube channel later today because both sides will be heard, Lauren. I don't think he likes how you reported this.

He's probably going to be on there screaming at me. Nothing I can do. Yeah, he actually has a show called Bosses Take Losses and he talks about it every week. Yeah, and his network has a lot of content, so we'll be looking for it.
