Starting point is 00:03:27 Good morning. What's up, Jess? How y'all doing? How you feeling? I'm okay. Pregnant? Pregnant. Okay.
Starting point is 00:03:35 Well, two more weeks, right? Yeah, two more weeks. Two more weeks. So that means any moment. That's right. And I'm not going to Raleigh. Good. All right. There you go. And I'm not going to Raleigh. Good. All right.
Starting point is 00:03:46 There you go. Now you're listening. Now you're paying attention. Good. You would have had that baby right on stage. I know. Over the weekend, I really thought I was about to. It was crazy.
Starting point is 00:03:57 You had contractions and all that? Yeah, but like the worst ones ever. They're getting more painful. Oh, yeah. So you're not going to make the two weeks. And they're getting longer. Yeah. So I'm like, worst ones ever. Like they're getting more painful. Oh, yeah. So you're not going to make the two weeks. And they're getting longer. Yeah. So I'm like, oh, God.
Starting point is 00:04:09 Remember when you were talking about doing a home birth and doing it natural and all that? I'm glad you're feeling good. What you did this weekend, Shellerman? What did I do this weekend? What the hell did I do this weekend? Damn, how come I don't remember? You popped up and showed out.
Starting point is 00:04:26 Did you travel? No, no, no. I went out Friday night. Friday night, I went out for a quick second. You know, my niece, Nala Simone, she does the best new live artist showcase in the country. It's called Certified Vibe. So she had Rhapsody perform, and Rhapsody has a label now. So she's got some artists
Starting point is 00:04:47 that I think Sebastian McHale, Nico, Nico Brim. And I don't know if the young lady Brittany is her artist, but she performed too. And it was just a dope event. Okay.
Starting point is 00:04:57 It's a cool little event on Friday. And then I had to do nothing else but sit on the couch all weekend and watch all these historic events unfold. Yeah, there was a lot going on. Finally, finally, finally somebody forced President Biden to do the right thing. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:05:11 To do what we've been saying he should have done, you know, eight, nine, ten months ago. Yeah. You know? Yep, yep. And it makes you think, like, when we were having all these discussions about, what, about a year ago, and they're saying that it looks like he had early signs of dementia and this, that, and the other. People said, why would you say that? It doesn't look like that.
Starting point is 00:05:27 But it did. Well, for me, it wasn't never about, you know, the cognitive decline as much as it was about, can he win in November? Because when you start having these conversations about somebody being a threat to democracy and the biggest hurdle to, you know,
Starting point is 00:05:42 protecting democracy is the candidate that you're currently running. Right. And when you start asking questions simply, can this person win? And it looks like they can't win. That's when you got to make a decision. But there was a bunch of reasons why he couldn't win is one of them, because it seems like he couldn't get his sentences together. Seemed like he showed it seemed like to me showed early signs of dementia. It seems like there was just so many things that were off. He just didn't seem confident to me to win like you said but uh we got a whole lot to talk about angela rye will be joining us this morning she'll be breaking some of this down yeah and y'all can uh y'all can actually call in
Starting point is 00:06:13 when angela's here so she'll be she'll be on with us the way you can call in and ask us uh ask us anything that's on your mind any questions you may have about the current moment that's right and also sabrina greenlee will be joining us. Oh my God. That is DeAndre Hopkins from the NFL, his mom. Let me tell you something. I want to tell you right now that if you've read her book, Grant Me Vision, or if you know about Sabrina Greenlee's story,
Starting point is 00:06:35 her story is very, very triggering. Okay, because she was a victim of a domestic violence situation that left her blind. Right. Yes, so we'll be talking to Sabrina later on this morning. That's right. All right, well, let's get the show cracking. Morgan Wood, when we come back, we got front page news.
Starting point is 00:06:51 A lot to break down this morning. Stay with us. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. Good morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Jess Hilarious, Charlamagne Tha Guy. We are The Breakfast Club. Let's get in some front page news.
Starting point is 00:07:02 Good morning, Morgan. Good morning, guys. Happy Monday. Hope y'all had a great weekend because, whoo, a. Good morning, guys. Happy Monday. Hope y'all had a great weekend because a lot happened. Here's what's happening. Front page. Yes. So President Biden is dropping out of the 2024 presidential race.
Starting point is 00:07:14 Dropping a booze bomb for that round of applause. Here we go. Finally. Finally. Wow. Yeah. After intense pressure from his own party and a letter posted on x biden said it was time for him to step down and focus on finishing this term as president he also announced she is endorsing
Starting point is 00:07:33 vice president kamala harris but that does not mean that she it will be the official democratic nominee now democratic leaders for weeks have expressed concerns about the 81 year old's mental fitness and his path to victory over former President Donald Trump. Now, this also keep in mind that Biden is he last as of last week, he was diagnosed with COVID on Wednesday and has been in self-isolation at his beach house in Delaware. He's doing well, but still in isolation. Meanwhile, Democrats are putting on a united front following President Biden's decision not to run. House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffrey said his fellow Democrats are ramping up for the week of August 19th. That's when the Democratic National Convention goes down in Chicago.
Starting point is 00:08:11 Let's hear more from Jeffries. We will do what's necessary over the next few weeks to prepare for the convention. It'll be an exciting convention in Chicago. and you're going to see an intensity and an energy and a capacity unleashed by the American people to make sure that this goes the right way in November. The DNC got to be popping. They got to make sure that they got their whole new next wave out there at the DNC represented. They need Gretchen Whitmer on that stage. They need Wes Moore on that stage.
Starting point is 00:08:41 They need Gavin Newsom on that stage. They need Josh Shapiro on that stage. They need to have Congresswoman Jasmine Crockett talking. If they want to go reach out to the world of pop culture, they better bring Olivia Pope on that stage. And Kerry Washington has done it before, but they got to introduce her as Olivia Pope. All right. They got to bring Jon Stewart on that stage. They got to have that energy going for the DNC.
Starting point is 00:09:02 You don't want to go, Charlamagne? You talk about everybody being on the stage. No. you know, going for the DNC. You don't want to go, Charlemagne? You talk about everybody being on the stage. You know. So Jeffries and other Democrats, of course, are split on whether to endorse VP Harris just yet, but everyone's in agreement about, you know, the ability for the party now to win since Biden has stepped down.
Starting point is 00:09:17 Now, Florida Congressman Maxwell Frost, he's also pushing back against claims that Republicans say that replacing President Biden on the ticket with Vice President Harris was a move by Democratic donors and elites. There's that word again. But he believes many factors led to Biden's decision. Let's hear more from Congressman Frost. She said, I'm not happy to have the nomination. She said, I'm happy to have the endorsement of the president and I will fight to earn this nomination.
Starting point is 00:09:44 This is what sets our party apart from the Republican Party. This conversation was happening and it wasn't just donors and elites. It was people on the ground, people across the country, activists, organizers, and people having this discussion. But I think he really took a moment to think about the totality of what was happening to our party, for our country, and how the risk of Donald Trump is very real and very apparent in Project 2025. And I think that's why he decided it would be best to not run for reelection. I think we need to have someone who will help us win. Obviously, a strategic choice.
Starting point is 00:10:17 And as a progressive Democrat, I would also like to see someone who believes in a lot of the same policies that Joe Biden and Kamala Harris pushed for in their presidency. That's all it's about is about who can who can win. And I agree with him. It was definitely the donors when the donors started saying no more money if you don't step down. That's when they decided to make a decision because 70 plus percent of the American people told told them they did not want a Biden Trump rematch. So the people been said they never wanted this. And it's been nothing but chaos and confusion ever since. So I'm glad Biden stepped down. I wonder what the change was, right? Because he was fighting Friday. He was like, no,
Starting point is 00:10:49 I'm not stepping down. It seemed like we're not stepping down when the donor said no more money if you don't step down. So it's all it's all a money game at the end of the day. But I do believe what Nikki Haley said along a while ago. Nikki Haley said the first party to retire its 80 year old candidate is going to be the one who wins this election and I believe that this is the first time a sitting president hasn't
Starting point is 00:11:10 sought re-election in more than half a century the last one was Lyndon B Johnson he dropped out in 1968 and that's following the assassination of John F Kennedy in 1963 now in a post on social media Vice President Harris did say she's honored to have the president's endorsement and it's uh her intention to earn and earn the nomination and win the nomination so yeah she will do she said she will do everything in her power to unite the democratic party to defeat donald trump and she closes by saying uh we have 107 days i think that's now six days until election day we will fight and we will win. And Donald Trump is... Yeah, I was going to say, he could come out the corner, you know,
Starting point is 00:11:49 fighting with him because, you know, that's a good matchup. He's a convicted felon. She's a prosecutor. She's a prosecutor. You know, it looks good. She's going to give him the smoke he wants. And now Donald Trump is the old man.
Starting point is 00:11:59 Donald Trump is the oldest person ever to run for president. That's right. I don't know if he can get through another term. You know, now he's going to be the one that's up there stuttering and can't complete sentences. Is this going to be up there rambling like he was
Starting point is 00:12:11 at the RNC convention? And after that year, he said he could have died, so we don't know. He's still talking about that. We'll talk about that in the next rally. Yeah, he got to talk about that. That's old news. That was last week. Yeah, that was last week.
Starting point is 00:12:25 I don't know. These news cycles move fast. Ain't nobody talking about that here no more. That was last week. That's a wrap. That's the truth of the matter. It's over. That was old news.
Starting point is 00:12:39 We didn't talk about that no more. Stump a toe now. Get it off your chest. 800-585-1051. If you need to vent, phone lines are wide open. Let us know how your weekend was, what you did, all that good stuff. 800-585-1051. Get it off your chest.
Starting point is 00:12:53 It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. The Breakfast Club. It's your time to get it off your chest. Whether you're mad or blessed. We want to hear from you on The Breakfast Club. Hello, who's this? Hey, it's B-Mont from the Metro.
Starting point is 00:13:12 803, what's happening? B-Mont, what up? It was good, Charlemagne. I called in Friday. I was like, I asked you a question. I was like, should it be Kamala Harris as the presidential candidate and then Gretchen Whitmer as the VP. I think that's the easiest thing to do, for real. You get a whole woman versus Trump movement going.
Starting point is 00:13:34 And then, like you said, Kamala's the ex-attorney general. Then Gretchen Whitmer is very relatable. She almost had an attempt to try to get carried out on her life. They just got Trump put in a corner. Trump ain't got nowhere to go. Switch the race with his face. I've been hearing people say that I don't think
Starting point is 00:13:48 America's ready for an all-woman ticket. I think you got to pair the vice president with a white man. You know? No, but see, you were saying that
Starting point is 00:13:56 and you was like, oh, we need the whitest man. But it's like, if you're going to get the whitest man, it's almost like you're trying to get MAGA supporters.
Starting point is 00:14:02 You got to get all the women supporters you can and all the people on the fringe. I don't think the Republicans got nowhere to go. You don't have to make Nikki Haley his VP. What? Somebody else said that to me yesterday. Listen, you know I like Big Gretch.
Starting point is 00:14:15 I like Big Gretch a lot. You know what I mean? I just don't see it for an all-woman ticket. I think Vice President Kamala Harris and Governor Josh Shapiro or Harris and this guy, Mark Kelly. He was a former astronaut. I think he's a senator in Arizona. I've been hearing about Andy Beshear in Kentucky. I like Shapiro.
Starting point is 00:14:33 Governor Roy, what's Roy's last name, in North Carolina. I like Tim Ryan. Our guy, Tim Ryan from Ohio. I think he'd be a good person to throw in there. It has to be simple. Nine times out of ten, it's going to be somebody from no battleground states. But I like Shapiro. Shapiro, Pennsylvania is a battleground state.
Starting point is 00:14:48 Yeah, I like Shapiro. So is Whitman. Whitman, Michigan is a battleground state, you know? Gretchen, yeah. Hello, who's this? Yo, this is V from Detroit. V from Detroit. What up, though?
Starting point is 00:14:58 Oh, wait. This is really DJ Envy? Yes, ma'am. Oh, my God. I didn't think I would get through. Hi, DJ Envy, Charlamagne. Peace. What's happening? Oh, my God, y'am. Oh, my God. I didn't think I would get through. Hi, DJ Envy, Charlamagne. Peace. What's happening?
Starting point is 00:15:08 Oh, my God, y'all. My heart is beating. But real quick, I just want to say that when you used to say that Democrats were cowards, I just disagree with you. I just felt like you were really hurting the cause. But seeing how the whole thing played out a whole year later, Shaw, man, I'll never doubt you again. I don't know why y'all doubt me now, but, you know, it's okay.
Starting point is 00:15:32 It's okay. You can doubt him sometimes. I like being Rafiki from The Lion King. You know what I mean? You know, Rafiki from The Lion King, they always think he a crazy little monkey. Please don't consider yourself a monkey. Oh, okay. But Rafiki wasn't really like a monkey.
Starting point is 00:15:42 Please don't. Not on air. He's just a wise little. Well, thank you, V a wise little well thank you v little wise little primate thank you so much bye bye now get it off your chest 800-585-1051 if you need to vent hit us up now phone lines are wide open it's the breakfast club good morning the breakfast club this is your time to get it off your chest whether you're mad I'm dialing, I'm dialing Hey, what you doing, man?

I'm 56 years old, and I cannot have a kidney transplant for two reasons. One, I don't have a support system, and two, they don't have a facility for me to go and stay after the transplant service. They have hospitals. They have nursing homes and stuff like that for people who need to get healthy and need to live.
Starting point is 00:17:08 I'm not ready to die yet. Yes, ma'am. How can we help? How can we help? Tell us what we can do right now. Send it out to people to find facilities and people to help people who can live. Where you from? I'm Michigan, Detroit.

Starting point is 00:17:46 No, I don't want to give you a number out there. Because if we give you a number, you'll have all types of crazies calling your phone. Do you have a family member we can give your family member's email? My son, but I don't know his email.
Starting point is 00:17:57 Damn. We're going to put you on hold and take your information. Yeah, we're going to take your information, Mama. See if we can get you a support system. But you know what, though, Charlemagne
Starting point is 00:18:05 and Envy? Yes, ma'am. I called down to Henry Ford Hospital. I went for a consultation and I told them, I said, if y'all don't have anybody to help me, because people who, they want you to
Starting point is 00:18:21 stop working for three whole months to take care of a person who's going through this. Because I'm visually impaired. So, it's harder for me. But, they told me they didn't have a facility like that. So, it's like, I've been on dialysis for 12 years. I want to be able to live to see some grandbabies. Live my life, do stuff. Absolutely. But, I can't because I don't have able to live to see some grandbabies live my life do stuff
Starting point is 00:18:45 but I can't because I don't have nobody to help okay well hold on we're going to put you on hold we can't give you a phone number
Starting point is 00:18:52 but we'll try to set it up so we can get your son's email and maybe get some people hit your son and get you the facility or the help that you need yeah and anybody
Starting point is 00:19:00 that's listening to us right now hit us up on our email hit us up on the phone line and we'll try to connect you with Jackie. Jackie. Jackie. Jackie.
Starting point is 00:19:08 What's our email? Eddie, what's our email? I be forgetting. If it's breakfastclubam at gmail.com. Breakfastclubam at gmail.com. I ain't checked that thing since Angela Ela. Yeah, I don't think anybody checked that. Somebody will check it.
Starting point is 00:19:19 Yeah. But yeah, so if you know a facility in Detroit or Michigan that can help this woman out, she's taking dialysis, and she needs a place for her kidney transplant to go after the transplant. Some type of help. She said that her son can't help her because her son can't take three months off. So she needs some help. So if you can guide her, that'd be great. Breakfastclubam at gmail.com.
Starting point is 00:19:42 I'm surprised it's not like a hospice or something for stuff like that. Yeah, that's what I'm saying. It is. There are facilities. That's crazy. That's the simplest thing that she can't find an outpatient facility it i thought i think it should be harder to find a damn kidney than somebody that could take care of you after you have the surgery that's weird yeah well if you have any information please hit us and we got just with the mess coming up what we talking about just why did why was 50 cent linked up with drake in canada we're gonna talk more about it all right we'll get into that next is the breakfast club good morning the breakfast club morning everybody it's dj envy just hilarious charlamagne the guy

She don't spare nobody. She don't spare nobody. Worldwide Jess, worldwide message. On The Breakfast Club. She's a coach of shit. She was able to get y'all to see something and understand something that nobody could get you to see. It's time to settle it off. Hey, so 50 and Drake linked up in Toronto.
Starting point is 00:20:48 And it was interesting because they shared a picture together. It was also a video going around of them looking like they have. Well, they are having a conversation. And 50 is laughing. But when he posted the video, I mean the picture of them together, caption brainstorming last night me and Drake we're gonna get the ball rolling on the biggest thing on your TV green light gang and then take take his businesses fans have mixed reactions about the link you know because some people was here for it and some people were saying like
Starting point is 00:21:19 oh them two they what they have in common is they don't like McGross. So yeah, of course people were speculating. Of course, that's why they were together. But some of the fans was like, I've never seen Drake with 50 Cent in my life before this. And then somebody said, not 50. He ain't it. Nah, 50. He ain't it. That's
Starting point is 00:21:39 Kendrick's jaw rule. Well, I did see and I also saw Drake wearing a free Ayo shirt last week, but you know, my whole thing is, Drake, you should have been brainstorming with 50 before you decided to get into it with Kendrick. He could have walked you through it a little bit better. Nah, they had conversations before, and he's always showed his support and love for 50 Cent.
Starting point is 00:21:55 He's always had 50 Cent shirts on, so this is not their first conversation. Okay, thank you so much for the inside tip. You're welcome. But the caption definitely hints at TV Project. And you know, Drake started off acting. So maybe 50 Ben had him on a, you know, in a piece of... Hey guys, I'm Kate Max.

Starting point is 00:31:03 And the guy was like, okay, bye. Gave him a pound and got out of there. Especially if JT was sitting there. That'd make all the sense in the world to ask that question. Yes, she was sitting there. She always sitting there. But yeah, she was sitting there. She was smiling like, okay, so what?
Starting point is 00:31:18 Well, that's Jess from the mess for the 7 o'clock. All right. Thank you, Jess. Now, when we come back, we got front page news. Morgan Wood will be joining us. And then after that, phone lines are wide open. 800-585-1051. Angela Robby here is The Breakfast Club. Good morning. The Breakfast Club. Your mornings will never be the same.
Starting point is 00:31:35 Morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Jess O'Leary, Charlamagne Tha God. We are The Breakfast Club. Now let's get back to some front page news. What's up, Morgan? Yeah, so over the weekend, former President Trump held a rally in Michigan. He says this election is the most important in the history of our country. And it was his first rally since the attempt on his life last weekend in Pennsylvania. Now Trump said his life was inches from being taken away. He added that he was thankful and further talked about the love he felt
Starting point is 00:32:05 at the RNC last week. Let's hear more from former President Trump. I shouldn't be here. I shouldn't be here. Maybe J.D. or somebody else would be here, but I shouldn't be here right now. But something very, something very special happened. Special thanks to Americans nationwide, including all of you here today, for your extraordinary outpouring of love and support in the wake of the horrific last Saturday event. It was like a big, beautiful four-day love fest. There was no fight. There was no fight, know there was no fight no screams no shouting
Starting point is 00:32:47 no uh get that guy off the platform and in case there was we had the hulkster with us right yeah so the former president said he is in contact with the two victims who were injured in the shooting and of course he again talked about Corey Comprator, who was the victim who lost his wife at that rally. Now, some could argue that those comments, you know, that he's not meant to be here and all of that, you know, maybe it's not someone who is fit to be the president. But I'll move on.
Starting point is 00:33:22 Meanwhile, Secret Service Director Kimberly Cheeto will be on Capitol Hill today as lawmakers demand answers over that assassination attempt. She'll testify before the House Oversight Committee, where she'll be questioned on how a sniper was allowed to get within shooting distance of the former president at the Pennsylvania rally. Now, many lawmakers are calling for her to step down or be fired. I mean, I can see that. Somebody get a clear shot at the president like that. Somebody even gets to walk into a rally with a gun. You know, yeah. fired i mean i can see that somebody get a clear shot at the president like that somebody even gets to walk into a rally with a gun you know uh yeah they have one job protect the president and the fact that he was so close and everybody's seen him but the secret service agents it's crazy to me
Starting point is 00:33:57 and you know somebody told me uh one of my one of my good partners man my man chris chris moreau he was saying i love you know he thinks that Trump would use this to disband the Secret Service and bring in his own, you know, private security company, which would serve as like his version of like the SS Nazis. And then that eventually would grow and expand to be like his own private army. I mean, that's a point. And that would be a justifiable point at that. I mean, you guys are doing your job that's right yeah um yeah well in other news that happened over the weekend congresswoman sheila jackson lee died at the age of 74 in a statement by her family they said she was a fierce champion of the people and her legislative victories impacted millions they added she helped establish the
Starting point is 00:34:39 juneteenth federal holiday and the reauthorization of the violence against women act the texas democrat announced back in june that she was diagnosed from pancreatic with pancreatic cancer but it's not clear that that is the reason um why she passed now president biden entered the chat to pay tribute um calling her a great american who's always fearless and uh he also noted that uh her legislative work again and um added you know the ge George Floyd Justice and Policing Act, a bill that made June 2nd the federal holiday. And of course, she served 30 years in Congress after being elected to the House in 1994. South Carolina Representative James Clyburn also honored her, saying they became good friends in their years working closely as Democratic whips.
Starting point is 00:35:21 Let's hear more from Clyburn. She was as creative, as innovative as any person I've ever met. And she demonstrated that time and time again. And was a very, very smart and astute politician. RIP Congresswoman Sheila Jackson. You said President Biden in the chat. That's a damn lie.
Starting point is 00:35:41 That man don't know how to text. Well, okay. But yeah, there were other Democratic leaders who also came out and honored her and her memory. And we got time for one more. Yep. Sports. I want to talk about some USA sports. Well, y'all sure y'all don't want to send Kaitlyn Clark and Angel Reese?
Starting point is 00:35:58 Because listen, Team WNBA pulled up the upset over Team USA in the WNBA All-Star Game. The female basketball players in the world took the floor on Phoenix on Saturday. Clark, Reese, and Arike Ogumba-Wale. I know y'all going to tell me up for that name. Well, they beat the U.S. Olympics. She went crazy. She went crazy in the second half. She had zero points in the first half.
Starting point is 00:36:21 Had 30-something. Yeah, she went crazy. 117-109 just a week before the Paris Olympics were set to begin. So that was really cool. So, yeah, of course, she was named the All-Star MVP. Ogumba Wale. I'm going to do some justice. Come on, sister.
Starting point is 00:36:35 Help me out. Ogumba Wale won All-Star Game MVP for the second time. And, of course, Team USA is headlined by 42-year-old Phoenix Mercury legend Diana Taurasi. And last season's WNBA MVP Brianna Stewart. So, y'all, send Reese and Clark over there. Stop playing. But that's your front page news. I'm Morgan Wood.

All right. Now, when we come back, Angela Rye will be joining us. She'll be breaking down everything, discussing Biden stepping down, Kamala Harris, the delegates, the war, the amount of money they have in the war. Whatever you want to ask her, she's on the phone lines for you guys. She can break it down to the T. So, 800-585-1051.
Starting point is 00:37:22 Angela Rye, when we come back, it's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. The Breakfast Club. Good morning. The Breakfast Club. Morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Jess Hilarious, Charlamagne Tha Guy. We are The Breakfast Club, and we got a special guest on the line right now. We have Miss Angela Rye. Good morning, Miss Rye.
Starting point is 00:37:38 Good morning. Good morning. How are y'all? Eddie Rye, daughter. How you feeling this morning? I feel good. A lot to talk about this morning. Let's jump right in it.
Starting point is 00:37:45 Over the weekend, Biden decided he was going to tap out. Finally, finally, finally, finally, finally. But you know what made me laugh, though? I saw you jump out the window. I didn't even see the original video. I just saw your correction video. But I already knew what it was about because you had already said this to me before. But you said you thought that Biden stepped down.
Starting point is 00:38:06 And I'll let you explain it. Biden stepped down. You had some words. You took the polls down. What were you upset about initially? So as you all know, yesterday, Joe Biden issued a letter that he didn't even tell a lot of folks on his campaign about. He said that he was going to not drop out as the president right now, but drop out of the campaign. And in that letter, there was only a mention of Vice President Kamala Harris as doing a great job.
Starting point is 00:38:33 And he's been proud to have her as his partner for the last four years. I'm like, where's the second page? Where's the second page? And so I'm like, yo, I have already told these people they've been talking about it all week that he may not endorse Kamala Harris. That's unacceptable to me. This person is on your ticket. It says Biden, Harris everywhere. So I went off. I was like, what are you doing? What are we talking about, friend? Like we're going to have some real problems if you don't throw your support behind a person who has stood lockstep with you in moments where she shouldn't have, including the debate night, which is where this snowball all began. And then three minutes later, three minutes later. Exactly. But the thing is, I heard that people flipping out and going off like that actually helped.
Starting point is 00:39:19 Why wasn't it in the initial letter? They said that they wanted to talk from the campaign officially, but why did you just put it on Twitter, my friend? Like the tweet don't necessarily go as viral as the letter of your initial announcement. So I think it was bad strategy. And sometimes that is the casualty of not getting your whole team involved
Starting point is 00:39:38 and ensuring that people advise you on the flat sides of your strategy. I disagree. I think it was good strategy because I felt like both of them deserved their own different announcements. And they both worked, right? Because he announced
Starting point is 00:39:48 and then everybody was like, oh my God, Biden dropped out. And then, you know, maybe 30 minutes, an hour later, hey, and now he endorses Kamala. So I felt like they just, they own the news cycle by doing that. That's what I think.
Starting point is 00:39:59 I can appreciate that. Now, Ms. Rod, let's jump right into it. I know you don't got much time. Why do you think Biden finally decided to tap out? Because, you know, Friday, his team was like, he is not tapping out. He's going to see this all the way through. What do you think was the changing factor? You know, I don't know if there was just one.
Starting point is 00:40:16 I think that this has been a circumstance of several terrible events. The first was the debate. Then they tried to clean up the debate with an interview, also a disaster. Then they tried to have conversations to get everybody to believe that everything was still going to be fine, also a disaster. And when you have, I think one of the most important things, there are not just voters in our democracy, the way this democracy set up, it has to be largely funded. And so when donors start calling and saying, yo, if you step aside, you're not catching no more checks. That's a different problem. Right.
Starting point is 00:40:51 And I think that's the thing that we have to understand. If donors stop writing checks in a contested election that will be as close as this one or was going to be as close as this one with Joe Biden and Donald Trump, if you can't fund it, you're in real big trouble. real big trouble and the polls too right because i mean there was like all of the polls showing that he can't win in the battleground states because they were saying that on friday night or saturday night he sat down with some of his team and they showed him like yo there's no path to victory for you yeah i think that polling is as good as when it's done and we are still over 100 days away from the election so even though i I've definitely seen the polls, I think, one, we joke about this on the podcast,
Starting point is 00:41:29 as you know, Lenard, a lot. On Native Lampi, we always like, we're the unofficial pollsters because black folks never get polled. And so we had a bunch of people reach out to us and respond to an unofficial poll that we did, all black folks, because normally, have y'all ever been polled?
Starting point is 00:41:43 I've never been polled. So that's the running joke. I don't really put that much stock in polls this far away from the election they did in 2020 it did show that he was up by 10 percentage points at this time in 2020 biden was so yeah but he's also on the other side of a really disastrous debate so i think that time could heal all wounds something else could happen you know there's been an october surprise um generally every single election cycle hillary clinton had one his name was james comey and he ruined that thing right so i think that things could happen all the time that came out why you said like you sound like how to a girl for a second he ruined that thing listen well we're speaking
Starting point is 00:42:18 to angela i got one more question before we go to the calls. What do you think the messaging is to the people? Because there are a lot of people looking at this and saying, so damn, it took the donors for you to drop out when 70 percent of all Americans said we didn't want a Biden Trump rematch to begin with. Like, why did it take donors? Why you weren't listening to the people? You know, I think it's a fair question. And it's one that every single elected official, some everybody that's campaigning needs to take stock in. You have to understand that it's not just the big donors. Kamala raised over $40 million yesterday with small donors.
Starting point is 00:42:53 Crazy. Right? So you have to think about the fact that we all have a voice. Every single dollar counts. That means something, and so does every single vote. So they should be listening to what voters are saying i think more than they listen to donors the worst thing to me in my political experience is when a donor's like they go like okay i'm gonna write you this check but let me tell you what you need to do about messaging let me tell you what you need to do about surrogate you know you need to get like
Starting point is 00:43:18 what was your voice and your opinion better like your job and where you're strong is writing the check it's not probably in political strategy now two quick questions before we go to the phone lines one uh kamala harris what needs to happen for her to actually because right now she is not she is not running right now right yeah there was a lot of people reporting yesterday a lot of dumb ass outlets saying that kamala was the democratic nominee but she's not as of yet so what needs to happen for her to be the nominee and who do you think she should pick as a running mate if she is the nominee yeah so in order for her to be the nominee and who do you think she should pick as a running mate if she is the nominee yeah so in order for her to secure the nomination as you all know the democratic convention is just a couple weeks away um she will have to get all of those pledged delegates um the
Starting point is 00:43:56 50 state party chairs have all officially endorsed her yesterday labor unions several elected officials most of the congressional caucus. So she has a lot of folks lining up that would demonstrate that she can get that. The other thing that we were just talking about that's really important here is the dollars. She's demonstrated like less than 24 hours. People were excited, probably in a 12 hour period. Forty seven million. Forty six. Forty six point seven million.
Starting point is 00:44:22 Wow. Yes. Sorry, I said forty seven. I rounded up. It might be a be at 47 now but the point is she secured the dollars she secured um the support and now she has to secure the delegates officially in a convention process a lot of the people who folks said we're going to challenge her have now endorsed so i think that makes it tough i want to know who else is on the bench i don't know that she's going to get another challenger maybe joe manchin we don't fool with joe manchin like that we know better
Starting point is 00:44:47 now you did say everybody endorsed but people are saying barack obama hasn't endorsed barack obama hasn't nancy pelosi hasn't chuck schumer hasn't hakeem jeffries hasn't but barack obama of course is the biggest one that he just named so bill clinton endorsed a lot of people endorsed but people are surprised barack hasn't endorsed uh are nancy and chuck schumer and hakeem jeffries especially being hakeem is black yes so is barack obama barack obama is also black i think stop it he's black but go ahead god jesus lenard not this morning okay we hit still the one drop rule and kendrick lamar told us we don't want to hear barack say nigga no no no no that was drake it's very different don't let him get you off. Talk about that another time.
Starting point is 00:45:25 Don't let him get you off. Talk about that another time. No light skin battling today. Thank you. Let's all stay together. So here we go. So I think initially I was, I'm still not that happy with Barack Obama because when he needed Kamala to campaign for him, she was right there. And I feel like he was trying to be in this role of like, let's let this process play out. And it's like, no, bro, she's on the ticket. If she's on the ticket, all of his pledged delegates now go to Kamala Harris.
Starting point is 00:45:50 That's the same thing that happened in the contested convention in 1968 with Linda B. Johnson dropping out after RFK challenged him. And so the thing that happens is all of LBJ's delegated or delegates go to or went to Hubert Humphreys. Right. Still a contested convention. All of that. RFK, when he was assassinated, his delegates were split between the other two candidates. These things happen. And at the end of the day, Kamala said she's still playing ball. She said, I intend to secure and win the nomination. That's what has to happen at the convention. I think the other folks in Democratic
Starting point is 00:46:30 leadership, which by the way, Nancy Pelosi is not anymore, but she likes to play that role, is demonstrating that they want to see the process play out. And that's how they think that leadership looks. I was told by someone pretty senior in leadership that they expect for kamala harris to secure um all of the support within the next 48 to 72 hours and i think you'll see those folks uh fall in line slightly i agree i don't want to hear nothing from uh you know former president obama them about you know a process or an open primary because y'all didn't care about primaries a year ago when people were calling for them against Biden. So don't start caring about primaries now.
Starting point is 00:47:07 Yeah, I don't disagree with that at all. Actually, like I said, I was really frustrated with President Obama. We've talked about this before, but when I was the executive director of the Congressional Black Caucus, anytime we were on the other side of President Obama, it was a real frustrating moment. Is your country falling apart? Feeling tired, depressed, a little bit revolutionary? Consider this. Start your own country. I planted the flag.

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.

What side? The white side? You stop it. What? I'm sorry? What side? What side of side? The white side? You stop it.
Starting point is 00:52:26 What? I'm sorry. What side? What side of Obama? The white side? Bernard, I can't even concentrate with you on this nonsense. What I'm telling you is we had a lot of issues with the Biden. I mean, I'm losing the Obama administration.
Starting point is 00:52:40 And it was really frustrating when folks didn't see that we were trying to represent the best interest of black folks. And when we clashed with that administration folks dragged us we used to get hate mail death threats you know for being on the other side of president obama but sometimes he's on the wrong side of history and i think yesterday was one of them i agree well let's go to the phone lines angela rye is on the lines right now she's answering all your questions political whatever whatever question you have something you might not understand she'll break it down for you 800-585-1051 it's the breakfast club good morning morning everybody it's dj nv just hilarious charlamagne the guy we are the breakfast club we have angela rye on the line this morning she's helping us out with breaking down
Starting point is 00:53:20 everything a lot went on over the weekend of course uh, Joe Biden tapped out. It's a lot to talk about. We have Leroy on the line. Leroy, good morning, Leroy. Leroy, I know Leroy Black. He black. Good day, Harry B. What's up, Leroy? What's your last name, Jackson or Johnson? Washington. Oh my God!
Starting point is 00:53:39 That's right, that's the third one. What's your question for Ms. Rye? My question, Angela, is I know the delegates, some question for Ms. Rye? My question, Angela, is I know the delegates are going to be behind Ms. Harris. Is it the Republicans, excuse me, the few Democrats that are left, or are they going to support her?
Starting point is 00:53:55 Because, of course, in 2008, they didn't give Barack a chance. Well, they did, but they came reluctantly. So hopefully they'll be behind her straight forward out of bed. The purse flow is going pretty well so far. Let's see, can that continue? So what's your question?
Starting point is 00:54:09 I guess the question is, will the Democrats fall in line? Is that your question? Pretty much the main Democrats, yes. The ones that fell out. Yeah, will the main Democrats fall in line? You kind of answered that a little while ago, but will the main Democrats fall in line, Angela, right? And Nancy Pelosi, Chuck Schumer, Barack Obama, those people. Yeah, I think these are the people that will be supportive
Starting point is 00:54:26 they're waiting to see if anybody throws their hat in the ring. Again most of the people who would be her biggest competitors endorsed yesterday and I think that some of these other folks are very much controlled by the donor class and so they will be supportive if the donors
Starting point is 00:54:41 are supportive and I think that what we're starting to see is that they will be. Even the Wall Street folks on Wall Street Democrats are like, cool, we can roll with this. Now Star is on the line. Star, good morning. Good morning. How are you this morning?
Starting point is 00:54:54 Good. What's your question for Angela Rye? I have a question. Hi, Angela. Good morning. Good morning. I have a question. Am I correct to assume that there is a Democratic and a Republican nominee for each of the 50
Starting point is 00:55:07 states? Huh? When you're saying a Republican and a Democratic nominee for each of the 50 states. As far as I've been, as far as I've been in Congress, like the Congressman, isn't it a Republican Congressman and a Democrat? Like I live in Tennessee. Okay. And I know that we're a redneck state.
Starting point is 00:55:23 But we have a blue, but we have a Democratic person Like, I live in Tennessee. Okay. And I know that we're a really big state, but we have a blue, but we have a Democratic person here, Congressman here. Right? Oh. Are you in Memphis? Yes. Yes. So, you do have a Democratic representative, and how it works is
Starting point is 00:55:38 members of Congress have about 700, a little over 700,000 people they represent in each state. And that's why you can have almost 50 districts in California. You can have five in a southern rural state because there aren't as many people. So that's how they apportion members of Congress who are on the House side. And then there's another chamber, the Senate. And the Senate has 100 senators.
Starting point is 00:56:04 Right. So everyone doesn't have necessarily Democratic and Republican representation it depends on the makeup of the voters in the state star you register voter another question. Would it be smart if she decides to run because I just woke up y'all and y'all are out of my head. So would it be smart for her person that she's running with to be a Democratic
Starting point is 00:56:33 person from a Republican state? Oh, I see. That's a great question. Star, come on. You ready to be a political strategist this morning? Thank you, Star. I am not. That's on the table. There's a governor by the name of roy cooper north carolina um kamala harris served as a state attorney general with and he's from north carolina um there's another one named andy basheer who's a governor in kentucky also a red
Starting point is 00:56:58 state he's being considered and then there's a state that goes back and forth arizona like a lot of our states go back and forth mark kelly who's a city sitting senator and is the husband of gabby giffords who was a member of congress an all-star and she was shot in the face um actually while i was still with the congressional black caucus and she's been a major champion for gun violence and given everything that's happened in this country they think that mark kelly would be a good contender as well yeah those are the top one thing. They were saying Kamala and a white person. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:57:27 It's gotta be a white man. That's where we are in this country right now. Those are the top names. And of course, uh, governor Josh Shapiro, what do you think about the, the,
Starting point is 00:57:34 the possibility of, uh, Gretchen Whitman? They've been saying, you think an all woman ticket would be a smart move right now? Well, I can tell you what I would aspire to see. Um,
Starting point is 00:57:42 sure. I think all women ticket would be great. I think, especially given all the battles of the, on battles of reproductive justice that we're seeing on the line right now, I'd be surprised. I have heard they don't rock with each other like that, but let's see what happens. And then with Governor Shapiro, as you guys know, I got to sit in on the interview with you all with Governor Shapiro, and I thought he he was fantastic i didn't really know him that well um and of course pennsylvania is always a state that is battleground one where they pour a lot of resources into and so having governor shapiro on the state also who worked with kamala
Starting point is 00:58:14 as a state's attorney general um would be would be great i think mark kelly will look good optics wise because he looks maga white you know the only only thing about Mark Kelly is... Amara. Amara. The only thing about Mark Kelly is what? Mark Kelly is kind of boring. And I think that we learned that lesson with Hillary Clinton and Tim Kaine. Did you even remember Tim Kaine was on your ticket? I did not. I forgot about Tim Kaine. I forgot all about Tim Kaine.
Starting point is 00:58:38 That's the thing. Do you want that again? I don't know if I want that. So Mark Kelly, and also he's a senator, which is where Kamala just came out of. I don't know. I think I would like Mark Kelly, and also he's a senator, which is where Kamala just came out of. I don't know. I think I would like to see a governor. We're still kicking it with Angela Rye. Hello.
Starting point is 00:58:51 Noreen. Yes. Good morning. Hi. Good morning. What's your question for Ms. Angela Rye? I just want to say that I feel like there was a big mistake for everybody, including your son.
Starting point is 00:59:03 I should go out. He's coming out bashing Biden, calling Biden trash, telling him to step down. All of these top Democrats coming out. Obama came out from what I heard, putting all this pressure on him to step down.
Starting point is 00:59:19 We picked him to be the nominee. I felt like it was like Roland Monhead pointed out that he was self-destructive to the Democratic Party. I totally disagree. That wasn't self-destructive. That was a bunch of people who had sense
Starting point is 00:59:34 who simply wanted to win. And you have to ask yourself, if there's a threat to democracy like Donald Trump on the other side, don't you want to run the best possible candidate to give you the best possible chances of winning? People couldn't hear what she said where she feels like everybody including charlemagne and us appear who added the pressure on biden uh added made him step down that she feels like it was completely inappropriate that's what that was her feeling people just wanted to win it's really
Starting point is 00:59:57 just that simple like do you want to win yes i didn't know your name was angela was that question for me or you it was for you angela well called my name, so I ain't gonna just let her just say it. Oh, she did? Okay, I'm sorry, brother. I didn't hear it. So what's your thoughts on that, Ms. Rye? You know, I think I agree with Lenard. We did a podcast on this, and I kind of went off about it a little bit
Starting point is 01:00:17 because I think it's really unfair to tell people that they don't see what they saw. Right. You know, it was a huge problem to see his debate performance. It was a huge problem to see, you know, the Lester Holt interview after the fact. I think the best thing that happened on debate night was Kamala Harris defending their record after the debate. And so I just feel like you can't really tell people they're not seeing what they are. You know, initially in 2020, he named the campaign the battle for the soul of america we're in a political war so you have to be all the way ready and i think one of the other
Starting point is 01:00:50 things that probably happened sometimes it's just god like you end up getting covet like after all that it's looking like you're not strong enough to withstand the pressures that are coming at you and that's unfortunate like we also don't want to be ageist you know but my dad is 82 and kicking he don't look nothing like joe biden you know yeah right so i think that some of those things happen the crazy thing is he got covid on tuesday and he's still at the house like i thought the new covid rules was three days he's still in it's been about seven days but my other question to you is um has it been seven days damn no it's usually been three days it's tuesday wednesday thursday friday he should have been out by now it's three days now that's the new oh i thought
Starting point is 01:01:29 you said i think you gotta i think there were other things that kept him in the house including this conversation with his family about whether or not he was gonna stay in the race i think it's not just covet and you're probably staying in the house because they shooting okay they just shot last week i would have gotten low for a week too. I would have. I would have. I think that's a smart thing to do. A week after you're a political opponent gets shot at.
Starting point is 01:01:54 I would keep the president away for a little while too. We ain't talk about this shooting, but I'm just going to hold my peace. Now, I wanted to ask you before we take some more calls. You know, do we blame this on his team? And the reason I say that is his team is with him 24 7 they prep they prepared for the debate they know what he is they know how he speaks they know how he talks and if he wasn't fit and they knew that he couldn't be do a good job on that debate why would they still put him up there to look like that that is a great question it's a million dollar question as far as i'm concerned every single one of them people should have been fired. I agree. Every single one of them. Like, how dare you
Starting point is 01:02:29 do that? You need to you need to know your candidate. And if you're not in a position to have the conversation with the candidate, to be honest with the candidate, whether it's because you're afraid, whether it's because you think you need the ratings, whatever it is like you need to be able to be honest with the principal. If you can't be, that's a whole other issue. So I take with every single one of those folks who are in this alleged inner circle who've been advising him because it keeps them in power. You got to check your own power sometimes. And he was calling for the debate.
Starting point is 01:02:57 And I'll tell you one thing. I guarantee you one thing. My day, pal. He said, make my day. I guarantee you one thing that you will not see but i guarantee you won't ever see kamala harris and donald trump debate i guarantee you donald trump i guarantee you donald trump will not take that stage with kamala i want to see this so badly donald trump ain't gonna do it he's not gonna do it he's not gonna do it let me ask you guys this do you guys
Starting point is 01:03:22 think he was trying to call her bluff when he posted yesterday that he would debate her on Fox News? But even still, she should go. How long have I been saying Kamala Harris should go on Fox News? You're trying to bite me. Listen to what I said. I said, do you think he was calling her bluff when he said he wanted to move the debate to Fox News? Probably because that's something that she thinks she probably would never do. You know what I mean?
Starting point is 01:03:48 I think she should do it too, by the way. I'm not disagreeing with you. Trump is not going to debate. If Trump's team is smart, he don't want that smoke. That's the smoke he don't want. And if she doesn't debate him, because I don't think that he will, she should still go on Fox News. Now is the time when she has to go on Fox News and talk to that side of America. Well, let's take some more calls when we come back.
Starting point is 01:04:07 Angela Rye is here. She's answering all your questions. 800-585-1051. It's the Breakfast Club. Good morning. Good morning, everybody. It's CJ, Envy, Jess Hilarious, Charlamagne Tha Guy. We are the Breakfast Club.
Starting point is 01:04:18 Angela Rye is on the line. She's breaking down so many different things this morning. And we're taking your calls. We have Brock on line five. Brock, what's your question for angela rye my question is uh will we protect kamala wholeheartedly and aggressively against the attacks from trump and jd vance well i think the question starts with you will you right i know what i'm gonna do i've been a black woman passed over for a promotion before i'm protecting her first from the people that are inside the democratic party
Starting point is 01:04:50 for the first time i'm supporting a hundred i donated to act blue for the first time last night i'm here for i'm here for i love that well congrats jersey is here for. I love that. Well, congratulations. Jersey is here for you. I hear you, Brock. I hear you. I think that's great. Number one on your first campaign donation. I hope that, you know, you will talk to the folks in our community who question her blackness, who question whether or not she's for the people and that you were able to stand on some of her own accomplishments from when she was a state attorney general, from when she was a United States senator. And I believe that now that she is no longer number two on the ticket, we're going to see a lot more, not just of her personality, but her desires for this country to come to fruition. So I think that that's awesome that you've already shown your support in that way. Keep doing it because there will be a lot of attacks. And I don't just think it'll be from the Republicans. You just said something, Angela,
Starting point is 01:05:45 that I really hope to see. Is the real Kamala Harris over the next four months? And I think, like you said, I think now that she's at the top of the ticket, I think those handcuffs are going to be off. And if they're not off, they need to be. Because the only person that's going to win this election
Starting point is 01:06:01 in November is the real Kamala Harris. Yeah, I think that's a thousand percent right. We got Mike on the line. Mike, what's your question for Angela Rye? Hey, how you doing? What's up, Mike? Hey, listen. This is the thing that I don't ever hear talked about.
Starting point is 01:06:18 If we get wrapped up into politics, right? We pick a team because we always been on that team. Now we got to use our head. Our health is on the line. God first, then our health. I'm going to give you a few notes. I got businesses in Atlanta, and I'm going to give you some things you never heard before. One, when the fish die in the ocean, right, wash up on shore, the whales are beaching
Starting point is 01:06:43 themselves, that's COVID. I work with environmental scientists. They're not telling us this. The Democrats have been infiltrating. And so many, within these three and a half years, we have been told so many lies.
Starting point is 01:07:01 Our health, our kids' health is on the line. And we mentioned that. They about it from the vaccine on From the beginning So I didn't vote For either side And I normally would vote Democratic Democrat
Starting point is 01:07:15 But I couldn't do either one Because Kamala and Biden Weren't telling us that COVID Was really coming from the water So there you go Oh my god and wasn't telling us that COVID was really coming from the water. Oh, so COVID. Oh, my God. Hold on. So COVID came from the fish?
Starting point is 01:07:31 Listen, they're poisoning the water, and this is how it was getting to us. So when we was wearing masks, we was supposed to watch consumption. So we already been watching. They sitting back watching the farms being destroyed. So we need to social distance from fish. So you mean no swimming for the rest of the summer? When you see those fish, if you don't, you might as well go on that beach and pick those fish up and eat it. I am.
Starting point is 01:07:55 Are you vegan? You take it. Listen, you take it. Is he vegan? No, I'm on my way, man. I stopped the fish. I stopped the beef because Bill Gates bought off all our beef. That means.
Starting point is 01:08:06 Oh, Lord. It's a lot happening. Bill Gates bought the beaches and the fish. So listen. Thank you, sir. I put them all. Let me tell you something, my brother. Damn, I really want to know more about the fish.
Starting point is 01:08:14 No, man. No, Lenard. We got to write this down. No, you don't. So Angela Rye, what do you tell the people out there that's listening right now? It's COVID in the car. Stop it. You don't want me to answer the fish question?
Starting point is 01:08:23 No, no, I don't. No. It's COVID in the white. No. So what don't want me to answer the fish question? No, no, I don't. No. It's COVID in the white. No. So what do you tell people out there that's listening right now? Let me say this. I'm going to tell you this, and I'm going to start here. I'm not going to answer the question directly, and I'm going to follow instructions.
Starting point is 01:08:35 But I do want to say just this one part about the fish. The water is being poisoned, and it is from a lack of regulations on a lot of corporate entities. And I think that one thing we'll know for sure is on the Democratic side of the aisle with Kamala Harris, climate change will be known as a real thing and there will be restrictions put on environmental killers so that hopefully the fish can survive. Now, moving right along, what I would tell people is to ensure they understand and study Kamala's real record. I think that this is an opportunity for not just the Democratic Party, but the entire country to really hit reset. So really give her a fair opportunity. Look at what she's done. Look
Starting point is 01:09:18 at what she's promising to do. And then mask that against what your own needs are for yourself. The dream that you have for America, the country that you would like to reimagine. And then really make a clear analysis on who you think will best help you reach those goals. It's sad that politically progress is often incremental. We get it in small bits. with that, knowing that there may be incremental change that she may not be able to, you know, make sure that America becomes the reality that we all know we desperately deserve and need, we may get a little bit closer. And so that's my plea to everyone to really try to give her a fair shot. I'm excited about her opportunity. I'm excited about who she picks as her running mate. And I can tell you, I haven't felt this way since 2020, the 2020 election when she joined the
Starting point is 01:10:06 ticket. I was never excited about Joe Biden. I don't think that's a secret to anybody. And listen, I know this is a sexist country and I know that, you know, it's a country built on patriarchy, but I do want women, you know, especially, you know, black women, you know, to believe in themselves in this moment, the way that we believe in them. Because, you know, when I hear people say things like, oh, she win this country didn't vote for hillary why would they vote for her i think we gotta stop saying that because this country did vote for hillary 65 million people voted for hillary and she beat donald trump in the popular vote by 2.9 million votes she lost because of the electoral college and if we're being honest she didn't campaign the way she
Starting point is 01:10:42 should she didn't hit pennsylvania the way she probably should, she didn't campaign the way she should. She didn't hit Pennsylvania the way she probably should have. She didn't touch parts of Michigan the way she probably should have. I think it was Wyoming, Wyoming or Wisconsin. It was three states. Wisconsin. Those three states really cost her the election. And her campaign even admits they didn't touch those states the way that they should have. So there's a lot of things that went into play with Hillary not becoming president.
Starting point is 01:11:03 And I don't think it was just because she was a woman. Yeah, I hear that. I want to know who y'all think is going to be the running mate. Mark Kelly, man. He's MAGA white. I would like Shapiro, though. For me, my personal take would be Shapiro. I'm going to tell you another white man I like. I like Tim Ryan. I think Tim Ryan is
Starting point is 01:11:19 not going to be the running mate for you. I know, but I'm just throwing the name out there because he's really been supporting Kamala, and he was one of the first people to jump out there and say Joe Biden needs to step down and Kamala needs to be at the top of the ticket. He did. He did do that. And he's very battle tested against J.D. Vance as well in Ohio.
Starting point is 01:11:36 Yeah. You know? I hear that. I hear that. I think that that might be tough. You know, everybody that runs on the ticket has to be vetted. They have to check for, you know, chemistry with the candidates, and I think that's another important piece. Mark Kelly,
Starting point is 01:11:52 I like the politics of it. I just think that he might be a little too boring. Well, Governor Shapiro, then. Let's go. All right.

Starting point is 01:17:58 there was a round that asked the contestants for the greatest rapper of all time. Let's listen to how it went. Who is the greatest rapper of all time? J. Cole. Andre. Kendrick Lamar. Ryan. Yes. Lil Wayne.
Starting point is 01:18:17 Okay, okay, y'all tripping now. Okay, Kayla. It's Tupac. Let's go with Biggie. Jay-Z, number one. Jay-Z. Oh, damn. Y'all tripping.

Kayla, who's the greatest rapper of all time eminem yes taylor who's the greatest rapper of all time snoop dogg drake snoop they actually had that number one that's why uh that's
Starting point is 01:18:56 why those polls and surveys are subjective because it's all about who you're talking to but not snoop for number one yo i don't care that's crazy anyway and they probably whoever they was talking to probably didn't even look at greatest the way we look at great like the most popular yep yeah that was the most popular list yeah because do they i wonder if they still do it like they used to they were you they used to show like people like man on the street like they asking a bunch of random people no i haven't seen that in a long time when they did it like that i know that's how they used to come up with these answers and put them in order like this. But to clarify, the list, the answer list was number one, Snoop Dogg.
Starting point is 01:19:32 Number two, Tupac. Number three was Eminem. Number four, Dr. Dre. Number five, LL Cool J. Number six was Biggie. Number seven was 50 Cent. And number eight was Jay-Z. Hey, say what you want.

I won't apologize to the entire hip-hop community Shazee's last what the world He could not believe that he could not believe it but and neither could I honestly like you said These people don't think of hip-hop like I mean, of all time, like we think of them.

Cantwell allegedly sent 100 threats to 42 victims between August 2019 and July 2020. That's some serious trolling. 100 threats to 42 victims claiming he would rape, murder and torture victims who criticized the great Donald Trump. Let's go to 10 Tampa News for the report, please. A Bay Area dentist was in federal court accused of sending dozens of threatening messages to people online, including an FBI agent and politician. For those crimes, a federal judge ordering Richard Cantwell to stay behind bars pending a trial.
Starting point is 01:22:42 Court documents say he has a practice in Zephyr Hills. Federal investigators say he sent messages to people riddled with his homophobic and racist slurs. According to court documents, Cantwell was interviewed by the FBI back in 2019 and was told to stop. Investigators say he continued to send threats to dozens of people out there one of those threats read in part prepare to die you won't see christ right now kent will face his three felony charges prepare to die you won't see christ um by the way he calls donald trump the great donald trump those are his words um trump supporting dennis who will make your teeth mega white okay you can get your veneers capital riot white if you want. Now, listen.
Starting point is 01:23:25 This is exactly why I be wanting folks to keep their politics to themselves. Okay? I remember a world not too long ago where people didn't discuss their religion, their politics, or who the best MC was between Jay-Z and Nas because those were guaranteed arguments. But now, we live in a world where people can't even agree to disagree. We live in a world where there is segregation based on politics and people's politics are impacting their everyday lives you want to kill me because i don't agree with the same candidate as you do you want to kill me because i'm not in the same party as you well damn mr dennis all i want is a root canal okay people out here telling me my breath stink
Starting point is 01:24:02 i'm just trying to get a fill in a three and you don't want to do it because i don't support donald trump this dennis could be out here doing someone's veneers but instead he's choosing violence you heard what the news report said his targets included politicians celebrities authors and other non-public figures and one message he allegedly told the victim i read your article about the great Donald Trump. You are gay. I can tell. F you. Hire extra security. You're going to need it. I plan on effing you up just for the fun of it.
Starting point is 01:24:33 Jesus Christ, Richard. Damn, Richard. Did they call him Dick for short? I don't know. What? That's a nickname. Richard Dick is a nickname for Richard. What do you mean i said gee i was wondering did they call him that for short okay all i want richard is some bridge work all right this is why 70 of all americans said they did not want a biden versus trump rematch
Starting point is 01:24:57 thank god president biden finally came to his senses and tapped out republicans i don't know why y'all haven't gotten the memo too nobody wants to deal with this type of madness you got people who have worked their whole life to get to a certain point throwing it away because of political differences this man richard cantwell sent one message to a victim and he said take note because liberal blank liberal blanks like it's redacted so it says liberal blanks like you get raped in alleys by really big black guys that serve our cause. So you blank because that's redacted to are going to get raped by at least five blanks. That's redacted. I'm going to assume that's the N word and do nothing.
Starting point is 01:25:38 You are the number one target. Bro, I just came here for Invisalign. OK, I just want some teeth whitening. Why do you want to kill me? Now, Richard was arrested and pleaded not guilty to the charges, but he did tell the court against his lawyer's advice that his statements were empty threats. These are the people that are going in our mouths every day?
Starting point is 01:25:57 This is the type of Richard, okay, or the type of dick for short that might be going in your mouth every day? Huh? I'm supposed to trust you with my two fix tractions Okay, he the type to take out anyone, you know He'll take out anyone who's not a Trump supporters wisdom teeth because he don't think they wise Okay, listen political differences will always generate a healthy debate, but I shouldn't be killed for them in Richard I gotta ask you was it worth it instead of worrying about people's cavities, now you're in jail receiving daily cavity searches.
Starting point is 01:26:27 Okay, your trolling got you a prison oral exam that your bicuspids and molars didn't ask for. Okay, DDS don't stand for doctor of dental surgery. It stands for Richard, Richard sodomy. Okay, and I'm only saying Richard because you know what I want to say. But use your imagination. All right. All right.

Starting point is 01:26:58 You don't think I can say it? DDS? You know what I mean? You know, it's not doctor, dental surgery. It's... No, I'm just going to say it's not doctor, dental surgery. It's... Nah, I'm just going to say it, Richard.

Starting point is 01:27:40 Now, when we come back. My God. All right, let's get serious now. This is a very triggering story. I'm letting y'all know that right now. But it's a story that needs to be heard. And we want y'all to go out here and buy her book. Her name is Sabrina Greenlee.
Starting point is 01:27:52 She is the mother of NFL wide receiver DeAndre Hopkins. She has a book out called Grant Me Vision, A Journey of Family, Faith, and Forgiveness. I'm telling you right now, story is triggering because uh she was a victim of domestic violence that left her blind damn yes and it's a whole backstory to go with all of that that's right please uh tune in yeah we're gonna talk to her next it's the breakfast club good morning the breakfast club good morning everybody it's dj nvious, Charlamagne Tha Guy. We are The Breakfast Club.
Starting point is 01:28:29 We got a special guest with us this morning. Yes, indeed. Sabrina Greenlee. She has a new book, Grant Me Vision, A Journey of Family, Faith, and Forgiveness. And it's out right now. Good morning. Good morning. Good morning.
Starting point is 01:28:41 Thank you for having me. How are you? Good. I feel good. I feel amazing. Thank you for having me. How are you? Good. I feel good. I feel amazing. There you go. Now, you are the mother of DeAndre Hopkins, and man, what a story you have. What a journey. What a life you have lived.
Starting point is 01:28:52 Yes, absolutely. I'm still here. Now, for those who may not know, you are blind, but you weren't born blind. You actually became blind after an acid attack in 2002 yes I was brutally assaulted in 2002 by a young lady that unbeknownst to me we were dating the same guy and I was called to a place by him one day and I went out there looking for my car and she came out called my name screamed my name Sabrina and she threw a concoction of bleach and mixed with red devil eye, she threw it on me. 17% of my body was burned that day. I fell to my knees and he actually took me
Starting point is 01:29:33 to the gas station about three minutes away, but eventually left me there to die. What? Lord have mercy. And this is a man that you were dating that you thought loved you, liked you, and cared about you and just left you to die. Yeah, DJ Envy, he literally was in my life for three and a half months.
Starting point is 01:29:49 So, of course, I didn't know him per se. And we really didn't know each other. But you couldn't tell me that that wasn't my man. But, you know, he was somebody else's man, too. The book is called Grant Me Vision. So in that moment of finding out you were blind, what was going through your head? That moment that, of course, I was in a coma for a month. And when I came out of the coma, I was on a lot of medicines. I remember them telling me that I would be on 50 different medicines for the rest of my life.
Starting point is 01:30:16 Thank God I'm not on any of them now. But just being blind and coming home to my four children was really, really tough. So even after I got out of the coma, I was addicted to morphine. I was in therapy. It was a lot of things that propelled me to get to the place I am now. But just being blind. Think about that. Coming home, you know, at 31 years old, I left the house 12 o'clock noon day going to find my car.
Starting point is 01:30:43 And then a month later, I come back to the same house the same children you know I had allowed all these men to kind of come into our lives in and out and here it is I'm just sitting there and it's just me and them now what do we do putting the pieces back together and totally blind so it was a lot of healing that had to take place and it was scary like I'm not gonna lie it was it was terrifying because you are blind and you can't feed your children I was stepping into um unforeseen circumstances that we had never been in and it was it was really tough and then not only that but just to sit there so depression set in anxiety I was suicidal for about three and a half years I actually knew
Starting point is 01:31:22 exactly how I wanted to take my life I had played played this out in my head many, many times. How old were your kids at the time? My oldest was 14. Keisha was 14. Marcus was 13. DeAndre was 10. And my baby was four years old. So I left my baby girl at the door that day, screaming and kicking for me. She wanted her mama. And I was was like go in the house I'll be right back I didn't come back for over a month physically uh you went through something but you keep talking about the mental aspect of it so how did you get out of that mental space there was one day where I um was fully in suicidal mode I knew exactly how I wanted to do it and I acted it out the road was about four houses up I knew that if I made it to this particular mailbox and I made it to another one, I could count the mailboxes.
Starting point is 01:32:11 So by the time I got to the fourth mailbox, I wanted to throw myself out in the road when I heard a car. And DeAndre, he just happened to wake up that morning and he followed me. I didn't know he was following me. He just put his hands on my shoulder as I was getting ready to literally go out in front of this car. Oh, I thought, you know, if I could hear the car, I could throw my body out there and it just all be over. The pain was excruciating. And we never talked about it for like 10 years later. And he put his hand on my shoulder.
Starting point is 01:32:40 He walked me back in to the house. I went in my bedroom. He went to his. We just shut the door and it was one of those things where it was just so strong that we didn't really want to talk about it because it was hurtful he knew what I was going to do I think that was the turning point for me I was like how dare I leave these children because like the mental aspect was just so hard like sitting there day after day having people wait on you i had people had to give me a bath people had to come in and feed me and so i was just tired of it all that was my
Starting point is 01:33:11 turning point mentally was like i got to get it together because if not these i'm going to leave these children and how dare i leave here and leave them here because if people are not coming in to help us now just imagine what it's going to be like without me lord have mercy i gotta ask a question right reading the title of the book last thing is forgiveness do you forgive the individuals that were involved with taking your sight dj envy i had no other choice but to forgive i have totally forgiven i walk in forgiveness there's just no way that i could be this person had I not forgiven. Now, when we talk about forgiveness, you talk about the process of forgiveness, right?
Starting point is 01:33:55 I'm sitting there and I'm mad. I'm angry. And how dare they try to take my life knowing I had these babies to feed. But what I did was I began to humanize her and look at her as somebody that you like. There's no way you could do that if you're not broken and so what I did was I began to humanize her I began to say her name eventually out loud I began to pray for her now that was really hard and I have this in the memoir where I say you know I'm just going to pray for her I pray that God I pray that you bless her and everything that she touches turns to gold that was all I could mutter right at first At first. And then my prayer got stronger. I began to just pray for her. I knew that day in the courtroom, her son was the same age as my son.
Starting point is 01:34:30 So you think about she got a 20 year prison sentence. She's done 18 years of that. She's, you know, she's been out for a couple of years now. And just to answer your question, I knew that I had to continue that process of forgiving her. I didn't know what that looked like. It took some time, but I thank God that I did do that because I have forgiven him and her and whatever involvement that he may or may not have in that attack. I had to put them together and completely forgive him and her.
Starting point is 01:34:57 Did he get jail time as well? So he did eventually get a year jail time and one year probation. It had nothing to do with that there was a three-day jury trial and she was convicted of 20 years but he continued to stalk me and harass me and he got a year jail time in a year of probation for continue to harass and stalk me a year later he actually came in every day of the trial and testified against her but then turned around and started harassing me saying that you took my girlfriend you took the person i love i love both of y'all yes i can't make this up he literally called me while i had three police officers standing in my home and
Starting point is 01:35:37 they called his name and they say repeat yourself you know you have three police officers standing here his exact words i don't care i'm gonna them. And they went and picked him up. And that's when he served a year. A lot of people don't know that, you know, it's crazy. So you said you forgave her. You said you were able to say her name and pray speak to me and she chose not to speak to me. And in the three years that she has been out, she chose to go to a blogger by the name of Tasha K and speak out against me. Wow. Yeah. I just refuse to allow anything negative to come into my mindset. I chose not to entertain it.
Starting point is 01:36:21 All right. We have more with Sabrina Greenlee when we come back. Her new book, Grant Me Vision, A Journey of Family, Faith, and Forgiveness is out right now. We'll kick it with her some more when we come back. 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 Sabrina Greenlee.
Starting point is 01:36:39 She's DeAndre Hopkins from the NFL's mom. She has a new book out called Grant Me Vision, A Journey of Family, Faith, andgiveness. Charlamagne, you have a chapter in the book called Justice Chapter 17. And, you know, you talk about what happened as far as him getting sentenced. But does her getting sentenced to 20 years, did that feel like justice to you? No, not at all. OK, not at all. What would you have wanted to happen? What would be justice to you? I had to come to grips with the 20-year prison sentence but of course attempted murder should have been the charge instead of assault and battery with intent to kill that would have been better however i feel like even though all of that happened i'm just not mad at it anymore because 18 years is a long time to be without your child i was with
Starting point is 01:37:24 my children every single day, right? I got a chance to instill some values in them that they still have to this day. I eventually got all four of my children into college. So when I look back 20 years and you did 18 years compared to me being with my children, I'm not mad at the sentence now. I was angry then, but I'm not mad at it now. Did he give you any peace or closure? Oh gosh, yes. The three-day trial was about a year after the attack. Hey guys, I'm Kate Max. You might know me from my popular online series, The Running

And so I had probably not left my room for a whole year. And I got up and I went to the three-day trial. After that, you know, I was waiting on the light switch to come on to be like, okay, you know, I got justice is good.
Starting point is 01:43:04 It didn't really happen like that i was still severely depressed but eventually it sunk in that this woman is in prison and there is some justice and justice did prevail now after every touchdown you know uh deandre gives you you know the football talk to us about that energy and the bond you feel when that happens like what does that mean for you it's amazing because of course I can't see and so the very first initial time that he brought me the ball I was like I was like he coming where he's coming where he's doing what and he held you know he handed me the ball and it was just the way that he gave it to me like he he squeezed my hands and he was like mom I love you and I'm holding back tears because I'm like man it just signified everything that we went through.
Starting point is 01:43:45 All of the things that we went through that nobody will understand that went on under one roof with me and these four children. It's amazing. Like, I wouldn't trade it for the world. And so now, of course, you know, he's on his third team and I can't always be in the end zone. Him get me the ball, but he makes sure I still get my balls. He makes sure. So you got a whole room of footballs. Some are deflated. He's in his 12th season, but I still have those balls.
Starting point is 01:44:14 And I think over time, we give them some to family members and things like that, but I have the majority. You were from Clemson too? No, not from Clemson. Okay, okay. No, not from Clemson. It only started when we were uh in houston got you i saw you say that the woman you are today if you had to do it all over again you wouldn't change a thing not one single thing really not one single thing and people when i say that they're like what do you mean you are blind like you wasn't born by but
Starting point is 01:44:40 if you take all of that and you mix it up, how could I be this woman today, be able to talk, be able to speak out so bravely, so boldly if I had not went through every single thing? So how how can I be mad at that? and you are going to deal with depression and anxiety and you're going to wake up whole then I have no other choice but to understand that all of that had to happen for a reason every single moment every single surgery every single moment of pain it had to happen and I wouldn't change not one single thing now I want to talk about your non-profit smooth tell people about that and how they can jump into that and help you out with that and maybe support. Oh, absolutely. So I have a nonprofit. We advocate against domestic violence. I'm in three states and we really are out here helping women.
Starting point is 01:45:36 I have so many stories where we go out and literally take women from shelters, organizations, agencies, and when they decide to go into their own dwelling, we provide them with financial literacy, household supplies. We do it all. And I am hands on every single case. I'm right there. And so smooth stands for speaking mentally, outwardly opening opportunities. That's with three O's and they can go to smooth Inc. Dot org. That's with three o's and they can go to smoothinc.org that's with three o's
Starting point is 01:46:05 and every single thing that people contribute goes into these women um i really really really can't stress enough that my organization is built and it thrives on helping helping these women who have been abused and not only abused but have have been traumatized. It doesn't matter. And it's not just domestic violence. We help all women in different facets of abuse. And what's the message you want people to get from this book, especially women? I want women to know that there is a place for us. And I say us because I'm still in the fight with you. However, when you began to just sit in silence look at yourself whether it's in the mirror whether
Starting point is 01:46:45 you realize what you've done with your children the abusive relationship that you're in when you began to take your power back baby on the other side of that you could scream and scream as loud as you want there's no more suffering in silence and so I feel like grant me vision portrays all of that the ups the downs the journey of a young black girl who didn't know who she was going through all of this but I am you you are me and on the other side of that is happiness is joy and I feel like when you can just understand that no one can make that choice for you but there is so much happiness on the other side of that pain. And I want everybody to go get grant me vision because I want you to just see my journey. It wasn't always like this, but I want you to just really go go grab grant me vision today and really, really dive into it.

Starting point is 01:51:17 how much a female be like oh i'm unbothered i'm unbothered we know i don't heart being out ass so it hurts and it i just feel like that was corny for him to go back and say anything I mean she deleted her post which she probably was like all right maybe I shouldn't have did this on social media but anytime the fact that she posted it she may seriously be done she may not but they have a small baby and I just think that was just wrong and insensitive could have just been mad at the time right you know you just get mad and just want to post hopefully they work it out and able to fix everything that they're going through but sometimes people just get mad and in the moment they think that's the right
Starting point is 01:51:51 thing to do yeah the right thing to do yeah all right so i actually just hope that cash is okay um you're just over there breathing heavy pregnant and more baby mama baby daddy news malika hawk speaks on co-parents and so we know that she is um the best friend of chloe kardashian and she is the former ex to ot genesis they have a baby and she decided to speak her truth on social media this weekend so um days ago well last week us weekly magazine released an article on friday Friday titled OT Genesis gushes over his co-parents and relationship with amazing Malika Haque. And an article OT said, both of my kids mothers are amazing. They're great mothers. Obviously, you're going to have your differences, but I wouldn't trade it for anything.
Starting point is 01:52:40 They're amazing with my children when I'm there and even when I'm not there. They're always there with the kids and that's dope so malika hawk she reposted it in her story and she said this fake ish irks me right so after that she cleared us she shared a clip from sierra's interview when uh shut out the shade room i think yeah she sat down with shade room and they had asked her how co-parenting was with future and this is what sierra said uh co-parenting like for you guys so after malika shared that post to her story following her saying fake-ish irks me, OT calmly clapped back in his IG story. He said, you offered me $100K to have another baby with you, and I told you no.
Starting point is 01:53:35 LOL, still love you and speak highly of you every time. Malika hasn't then said anything back or anything. I just don't understand why folks be running to make permanent posts based off temporary feelings because even if you post and delete the post gonna live forever because the blog gonna pick it up and make it go viral you know when you get online and say certain things comments posts whatever is gonna go viral then folks are gonna be all in your business and you're gonna tell people my name is this but all of this comes just because you in the moment take a breath and you in your feelings, man.
Starting point is 01:54:05 That's why I'm like, damn, this is crazy. Either way, another internet moment. Cardi B speaks on politics. We know that she loves doing this. This is what she's been doing for years now. But Joe Biden dropped out of the presidential race, as we also know, after hearing the news. Cardi hopped on social media to remind people that she made this call weeks ago. She reposted a video speaking on Biden and Kamala Harris that she originally posted last month, June 30th.
Starting point is 01:54:33 That's what she said. I personally just feel like he should just enjoy his life right now with his children, with his grandkids. You already made a legacy. You already became president. You ain't had to run for a second term this should have been the perfect moment to give it to kamala now she most likely gonna run for presidency in four years or in eight more years and it's going to be a little bit tougher for her biden right now is really moving like my pappy but it's like come on you're in your 80s and i don't think he's healthy for
Starting point is 01:55:05 being a for being 80 years old because patty labelle just turned 80 years old and honey she could sit me the down but you could see the difference between patty labelle and joe biden they're not they're not the same type of 80 years old who's dnc gonna have at the convention plies or cardi b what you got your money on now who's speaking i'll go cardi probably cardi right okay i don't know but her caption said stop playing with me check the date said this on june 30th i've been told y'all kamala should have been the 2024 candidate y'all be trying to play the bronx education baby this is what i do bend my passion don't let my accent fool y'all so cardi been into like i said cali been cardi has been into
Starting point is 01:55:51 politics and everything so i i like seeing a female rapper do that though that's amazing dropping the clues boss a big body she has an opinion about it you know and and i and that's also a big platform that she got you know what i mean so i i think i love seeing her support kamala and just you know another woman that's just what i'm asking i'm just watching you dug it out pregnant that's all when you go on maternity leave I don't know when my water break
