Published Jan 18, 2024, 12:04 PM

Tezlyn Figaro taps in with callers to discuss organizing and thow to handle negativity when trying to push the line. 

Ask your question real. Let's just keep it real, straight shot with no chasing. I'm gonna get a little bit rough. I'm here for it. Those who really believe in the American process, all of us Street shot, no chase with your girl testlim figure out on the Black Effect Podcast Network.

At work?

What's having everybody? This is Tesla and figure out with a straight shot, no chase a podcast on the Black Effect Podcast Network. I am doing this live on Twitter right now. Hopefully my Instagram family will join me. I typically record my podcast on Instagram because I love the interaction with folks. You guys know, I love talking to you. I'm gonna shut up. I want to take some of your calls today. Let's just do what they call on the Breakfast Club and get it off your chest. I have two co hosts who are joining me today, the Linus Crowns and Marcellus Uh. They will be here helping me navigate. Just in case you're not familiar, The Black Effect Podcast Network is a network UH that is on iHeart Radio, the largest audio platform in the country, started by Charltmagne and the God to have a podcast there, and this recording will be on the podcast. I'm gonna get right to it looks like we have we have of terrain.

What's up, Jay?

And if you don't get my name right, I know something. How you doing?

Hey, you came on to stop letting that body. If pep mess on the time, sometimes just get it wrong.

All right, it's all good. First of all, it's good to see you in twenty when they're falling, I'm glad, can you hear me?

Yes? I can happy to know your love. And I'm justceiving about your name. But I don't mind. They can mess up my name all day long, so I don't bother me. But it's touring everybody, Hello Tom, no problem.

I'm gonna try to be quick because I'm on the road. A lot of the conversation when it talks about black people and voting and what we need to vote for, is led by people who are very condescending towards black people. You talked about people who have back, and you see people who might be doing a little bit better or might be affluent black who are real condescending to people who want to get involved in politics. But they may not have the background and they may not have the connections. So how can people who are coming from backgrounds. Maybe they have a criminal record, and may they do some things that may not be perfect, or they may not be connected to the winding Champagne people. How can they get motivated to motivate the people that they want to motivate without doing the inn run around these people who want you to kiss the behind.

Yeah, I mean again when you are running at a local city and I mean I just get I'll use them like again, I'm gonna use a real time receipt. I don't have to guess about it. Regina Hill was arrested twenty one times. We didn't sit up here and wait on nobody to kiss no behind. We went and found the people that rock with us. So even felons who couldn't vote at that time in the state of Florida. You got a baby, mama, don't you. You got a white, you got a husband, you got a mama. You gotta something. We went outside of the network. There's been this myth to think you got to get them on your side. Whatever you did to become a criminal, If you became a criminal the honest criminal way, meaning you were what nervous about doing nothing you did to become a criminal, use that same energy and get busy in these streets. Nothing organized like I like a gang banger, like I know, like a dope dealer that I know when you came to the city. And I'm not saying you, I'm just using for the dope. Shout out to the dope deals in the building out of your Oh she glorifyed dope. No, I'm just giving you the example because now my my friends now joined the live and I will he knows. I'm always telling this. If you could figure out how to take keys and go plant it in Oklahma City and Kansas and everywhere else and flip it and go with one person and flip it and get a whole organization. You mean tell me you can't get your undre people to come to the polls. Gang banging is organizing. Selling dope is organizing. Whatever you did was organizing. You got caught, but you still knew how to organize. So it's the same skill. It's just understanding how do I apply that same skill? Stop being scared. Oh I got to go through them. No you don't. You didn't go through nobody when you robbed that bank. I'm not suggesting to people to rob banks around. But you know what I'm saying, Will you want nobody wait, no position, no no permission to do nothing else you did so while wait on this, you literally have nothing to do and you might fuck around and win stop depending on what everybody else say. You got to do. It does not take a lot of money. It takes you being able to file. And if you cannot file, then you run by getting on petition. Meaning I was a candidate once and realized it wasn't for me. In Orlando, Florida, I got my petition signed in one night, hard and heavy bike ride and the strippers got my petition signed in one night. To be on the ballot, people got to pay to get on the ballot. When you pay to get on the ballot, they tell me you can't organize. All you need to do is get on the ballot and go knock on some damn doors. Everybody want to do everything but knock on doors. It's kind of like with kids. You want to do everything but clean the kitchen. Clean the kitchen. Oh, y'all gonna do it right after I get done, or suth clean the kitchen. It's simple on the local and state.

Level, you see, and that's my point, See how you're giving everybody actual things to be able to do, to be able to build on a lot of times these conversations that have and in social space, it's just basically telling people to shut up and vote and quid ask some question because you ain't qualified to do that. And that's what I said. I think that turns a lot of people off. For me, been getting involved in the process because of hn i C mentality and that gatekeeper ship keeps a lot of people out of it, Oh for sure.

But I'm just going to let you know you can hop over the gate. The gate is hoppable again in the jumbo try. When when you tell me it take five thousand people to get a Compton mayor elected in eighty thousand, eighty thousand people live in Compton, you mean tell me, NCA, we can't get five thousand people to rock with you. Of course we can. Of course we can. So it's just giving people the game. But you got to be willing to take the game and roll with it. If if Inglewood can be an entire blood organization and you can have thousands of people under the bloodline, then you tell me you can't get two hundred of them to show up at the polls. They run through a wall for you. They can't do that and get some real power. That's what the mafia does. So it's just giving the game. But you can't be scared about this either. But it also takes you working and working on the ground. It ain't by this damn talk. And you right. A lot of people the gatekeepers tour and they do say that, but let me speak to the other side to keep it balanced. A lot of these people y'all listening to you on these podcasts, they ain't never ran no race. They just sit up and talk about the gatekeepers all the time. But how many races, though, have you won? They ain't never ran no race either. So although they're there, although they're talking about the gatekeepers, they ain't win and knocked on nobody's damn door. So they ain't giving game either. They just talking about the gatekeepers. Anybody can sit up here. I can sit up here and make y'all mad at the gatekeepers all day. How many times have you knocked down the door? Though? Let's go, let's run through those receipts. That's what inspires people. I did it the other day on Live Well you that sound like Pie and Scott. I'm Betty Crocert. This ain't no Pine of Scott. I'm giving you real examples, Google verifiables example. It's not bragging, oh that she go talm a receipts again, right, people that got receipts can talk about receipts. Only people that can't talk about receipts the people that like to talk about theories and what it sound like. No, if you are good in the Air Force, meaning keeping the conversation going on the pod level and love, I got a podcast, I've got three shows, getting ready to do another one. But I am an organizer first above all. Else, I'm an organizer. First, you cannot at work me on the ground. And if you're not a ground person, then partner with a ground person. The Air Force has to partner with the Marines. Are no wars won. So although the establishment talk down to people tour and I gotta be honest and say those of us on the conscious side, they keep people mad, but ain't directing them to nothing either, just keeping people mad, not giving them no clear direction. And it's because they don't know and they're too pride for the partner with people that know because they want to be the only ones that know, and that's not getting us ahead either. Thank you so much, Jiv always thank you, Baby, I appreciate it. Happy to know. Year to you again. Jada's next. Next up, we have.

Trend Hey Tesling, Yeah, yeah, I you know glad you worked on the Bernie campaign in twenty sixteen. I tried, Well, you guys were more successful in Michigan than we were, unfortunately in Ohio in twenty sixteen, because I remember in Michigan we won and then Ohio was just a big disappointment. You know, I worked. I worked in kind of the northeast part of the state, near near Cleveland, my Cauyahoga County. My question for you is because I hear like one of you made the point that there are a lot of people who are gatekeepers, but there are also a lot of people who are who are just criticized in gatekeepers. How do we combat nihilism in voting because one of the things that I've dealt with even.

Break it down and lame of turn. Baby, don't use big words. We just talked very I mean, I appreciate the intellect, but break it down. So everybody, I'm standing.

Yea, how do we okay, how do we come back complacency when it comes to voting, Because one of the things that I've dealt with when I've tried to organize in my community is I'll hear a lot of people talk about how they're not good candidates. There are people who everybody's a sellout, et cetera, et cetera, and then there's sometimes where progressive candidates are not given the support that they need to be given. I mean, I think about I don't live in Cleveland, but I think about someone like Nina Turner who ran on what a lot of people on here would say is a good platform, and in a city, in a district of three hundred four hundred thousand people, only twenty two thousand people voted for her. So I guess that's my question because there is a lot of talk about how we need better representation, and then some of the people that run are not supported like they need to be supported. I meant, I wasn't involved in Marcel Dixon in South Carolina, but for all the talk about reparations on here, you would think that someone like that would get more support. So that's my question.

Great question, Well, I actually wasn't name the tiers direct to communication. She's a part a friend of mine, and I'm gonna give you the hardstone cold truth. Nina left Cleveland and went national, and although she came, she got very close the first time, and a lot of people did raise money against her, but again Rashida's lead. They raised a lot of money against her too, but Rashita's lee was on the ground. Nina was running in a moderate city that voted seventy percent Joe Biden, you people on Twitter, came win nothing for nobody in Cleveland. Even though it's a congress a congressional seat, a federal seat, it's still local. It's still about getting thirty thousand people to the poles. And although she was very close, she had not been working on the ground for six years. So even though she was more dynamic, even though she had a better platform, even though all of these things, at the end of the day, she ran against somebody that was a Democrat chair. She ran against somebody that was literally sitting in the city council seat who was not as dynamic as her. But that was the people that was that was the one that was kissing hands and shaking babies while she was on the campaign trail. That shit matters. That's the part of the calculus. And she's a very close friend of mine and she wouldn't like She don't like it when I say that. But that's just the real that's just the real deal. At the end of the day. On the oh, they should be a y'all can't tell Cleveland how to run. They city. Seventy percent of the people are moderate. You progress just can't tell them shit about that. They don't even like you forgress. Nina need to be running in California. As a matter of fact, I told her that today she'd be running where they rock. You go. You go run with people rocking with you. You don't go force no man or no woman, begging no woman. You know, damn well at your lead. How many y'all follow the woman at the cup? And when y'all go to the cub. I like to get these hypoanaticsause I know it relates to people. When you go to the cub, you know, damn well, that woman at your lead. That sometime every now and then you might shoot your shop. Maybe you're lucky, but let's just keep it real, brothers. Put a one hundred if you agree in the club you're gonna go with the low hanging fruit. I just want to see how many of y'all gonna keep it real? Put a one hundred. If you trying to take something home to night, you know damn where you ain't going to the finest one in the club. You going to the low hanging fruit. Do I got anybody that's gonna be a witness and tell the truth. Some of y'all lying torn you line because that one day when you said on your things, See now I've got to bring up receipts when you said something one day because I remember talking to you about it. You were saying something about not approaching a woman because something that don't make me pull up the receipts because I remember that's right, that's right. You said if you don't approach, you don't approach women if you ain't dressed. So why would you just put the thumbs down? So if you ain't dressed? Right in the club, you said you don't approach women that you dressed. Because I'm like torring you a handsome man. You different than the gangs, because I don't give it, damn they approach you button naked. They don't give a shit what what they got on. So put the thumbs up to him. Because if you feel like you're not in the best position, you ain't gona approach nobody. Why because you live in Atlanta. You no them brothers be dressing sharp, so you only gonna come with your best game. Correct. Okay, then, so I don't know why you put it. Oh, y'all, Touring didn't think I remember when he posted that put a one hundred. Put it one hundred. If y'all believe that. Torn didn't believe I was gonna put that receipt, see I stay. Torn didn't think I remember the receipt. But Torren said, I've reached out to you. I went out my way and say what you mean. Yeah, if I'm not on my shit, I'm not gonna approach her because I want to make sure. I want to make sure that I'm on top of my game so I won't get rejected. Because guess what. Men don't like being rejected. Now, the men that I know in LA they don't give a damn what they looking like. They don't give a damn if you Beyonce, if you whoever, Hey, what's happening. What's happening, mom? They don't give a shit. So region's got a lot to do with it too. But we could table there and have that conversation the other day. But the point is, when you're in the club, you either gonna go towards the low hanging fruit if you know you ain't on your shit and you trying to take something on the night, or if you trying to get the battest in the club, you gonna make sure you on your top tier, depending up on your region. So what I'm saying to that is stop talking to people that don't want to fuck with you. You spend too much time talking to people don't want to fuck with you. Using the example it's eighty thousand people, using the Compton, California example, Why are you talking to the same five thousand people over and over? One thing that the establishment does when they go in the voter action network, they go to the supervowters, they only talk to their voters that they know we're going to vote for them. That's why when y'all think y'all saying something by saying y'all gonna stay home, let me give you news, let me give you some breaking news to those who actually worked on a campaign. You are helping them out with that we're just gonna stay home. Guess what, it's always more people that stay home than it is that show up. You are not helping at all, not at all. In fact, it makes it easier for me to get fifty one percent because if you stay home, now only got to find five hundred people. I don't have to find a thousand. The trick to it is torn and those of y'all and who are listening that think y'all be saying sometime, but y'all staying at home. The trick to it is running a candidate to split the vote. Get anybody to do it, Grandma, uncle, whoever put them on the ballot. If you want to stick it to somebody, that's what you do. You make them work harder. Using the example I gave you, twenty three hundred people showed up. They put it back in the jumbo trying so they can see it. Look at the City of Compton primary nominating election, twenty three hundred people showed up for Christine. Then after that is one, one, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine nine other people ran. The person at the bottom Elijah had forty three people show up. That forty three people showed up that hurt Christian at the top, forty three people staying at home though hurt christin I mean staying at home, But forty three people forty three people that voted for her voted for Elijah that actually hurt Christian. So y'all not saying nothing when y'all say I'm just gonna stay at home. Those are people that have never had to work a win number. I'm telling you how it works. Randomly. Just put anybody on the damn ballot. Write in somebody. I'm not telling you to vote for somebody you don't support. What I'm telling you is if you want to stick it to them, you make it harder for them to climb that Hell, that's how you That's how you push the line, not by sitting at home. That just makes the win number easier to get to. So you do not come back complacency. Stop talking to people that ain't rocking with you. You go find your district. Had Nina Turner ran in California like I told her to do, like she publicly acknowledged that FIGUREO told her to do, because then she called me figure out she would have won. Why would you spend time talking to people that you know ain't rocking with you. They don't like Bernie Sanders. I don't like Bernie Sanders. Modern Black people are moderate. They are not progressive. For the most part, they should be, but the progressive movement do not know how to talk to Black people. They still do that low information voter is ram majority by white people, and I can't stand them. So although I work for Bernie Sanders, it's a lot of anti black. I was the only and the first staffer that called out Bernie Sanders and his racism. After I did that, ten people follow me. That's why Bernie Sanders got his ass dusted. That's the truth of the matter.

And Tesla, the last thing I just wanted to say too is that is that is also something that I just think is a misconception because I hear, yeah, I was gonna say, it's a misconception when people on here act like the grassroots voters are progressive and it's elites that are moderate, like a lot of black a lot of grassroots for voters in places like Cleveland, because Cleveland's not Cleveland, Black voters aren't aren't necessarily wealthy. A lot of them are very moderate, not only socially like people like to talk about, but economically like a lot of voters fundamentally. When I've canvassed and I've said, oh, what about Medicare for all? What about minimum wage increase? A lot of them are like, yeah, I just want my healthcare to be improved. I'm not with that Medicare for all stuffs. So I think that's something that's important for people on here to know it's not just bougie negroes who were talking about, you know, being economically moderate.

A lot of oh for sure, for sure the average working class. And again, this is what and I appreciate having you on this call because I love how going people to actually work on the ground. Black people are moderate and largely a lot lean conservative in a lot of ways. Black people have to work hard as hell to get their money. Ain't no, they ain't trying to sit up and give it all the way to the government. That is an absolute misconception. And it doesn't mean that they're conservative, and it doesn't mean that they don't care. It's just the issues that matter to them. Yes, we do, we have an overwall least of these. But I want to be clear, the progressive movement is ran by white folks. Now, if you want more Black people involved, then they didn't. Black people need to go over there and take over that shit because right now they cater to white folks. They're no different. When I hear them talking about boomers and you know, we don't like you black, you black elites and all these white people to get all these nuts to talk crazy to black people, I tell them my time, you stay at black folks business, You stay o black vaux bit. Black conservatives will deal with black conservative progressives. Black progressives will deal with black establishment democrats. White folks, burn you burners. You keep your ass out of Black people's business. That's what turned a lot of people off. Sometimes it's not always the platform is the candidate. And I'm telling you firsthand, working on that campaign at the national level, ten of us that went on that campaign, I walked in the door the same day a sense of eternity that I know how they did her. I know what they did on the ground. I was on them conference calls. I saw it. That's why I wish somebody would challenge me on it, because I know what I saw and they know different than what the Democrat establishment, boomers or whatever you want to call it. They don't know how to talk to black people. They don't know how to deal black people. They think the answer is always low information voted now. Sometimes black people just don't like you. Sometime they just don't like you. Period. You don't know how to talk to black people. You tell black people what they should and should not be doing. If I heard that one more time about him walking with emilk black they don't give a shit about who you walk with no emilk. You ain't met no black people in twenty years. And the black people that you did meet, I introduced some to him, so I can talk that shit. I'm over exaggerating. Obviously he met more you know, black people that I was. I'm just saying, until they value relationships that real black people have on the ground and the progressive movement, black people will never go over there. They've turned a lot of Black people off and black it is not just this boogie. You are absolutely right. Middle class Black people are largely moderate. They ain't with that socialism shit, y'all own, not at all, because the reality of it is it's still a lift all boats tied whatever shit be over there talking about it, and we ain't with that because we know that do not serve us well. But I do think more black people should be in the progressive move and I really really do. It just ain't gonna be me. I'm not a progressive, but I did work on a progressive campaign. Two things can be true at the same time. Who's up mixed or did you have any follow up with that trend before I go? Because I do, like, yeah, that's all I wanted.

This is because that's why I mean, you know I I mean, particularly with with you know, everybody on here, you know, toring you like, That's that's all I want to put pushback on because I want to be clear.

I'm not I mean, I'm lucky that I'm I'm doing what I'm doing. Okay, I'm surviving in this colony. But most of my family, even in terms of president aial election, a lot of them are very working class or like I. In some cases it's I got some of my student loans forgiven. That's enough for me. I'm voting for the Democrats. So I just wanted to I just wanted to add that because that's the biggest That's one of the biggest misconceptions I hear is that black people who even next year hurt this year, who are going to vote for Biden, are all going to be people are making four hundred thousand dollars Like Keep in mind, Detroit votes ninety five percent for Democrats, and a lot of those people are people who are very poor and very you know, my city, downtown is a very poor city, and it's a very moderate democratic city.

So that's all I wanted to say. I'm glad you brought up student loans because you know, in the conscious space, if you will, you know, there's a lot of you know, forget them student loans, student loans, blah dah da da dah. Well, again, everybody should be looking at I have three degrees. I'm going to give my fourth. I got student loans. That's not why I vote, because again I I because of what I do in my work, in my life. I typically vote a lot of collective issues, but the most meaning the collective I'm considering collective. But for most part, you're supposed to do what worked for you. And if you have a four or five hundred dollars student loan, that matters y'all got to stop shaming people for that too. You know, y'all got that bad. Just because you're asking go to college, don't mean like somebody else ain't supposed to be concerned that that five hundred is not taking care of their kids, or that five hundred is not going towards their rent. That's hurting them. That can be a real issue for them. Y'all get that a lot from these podcasts they be telling y'all ain't about student loan. These are people that never went to college, so it's very easy. But somebody who ain't never went to college, don't have a student loan to be telling somebody else what they need to be concerned about. You could say college is a sham. You can say whatever you want to say. But I'm here to tell you, black folks, I needed all the credentials because no gate was open for me. There was no gate. No mama, no daddy put me on. Everything I had to do. I had to hustle, so I needed at all. I needed the degrees, I needed the certifications, I needed the relationships. I needed at all. So I don't shit on anybody, the trades, all of that, whatever it is to get you to move your family forward that works for you, the nerve with somebody else that decided to take a different route, and to tell them what should matter to them. That's what matters to them. And but let me be fair on the other side, those of you that got college degrees, shaming, shaming people that don't and telling it making them feel like because they don't have a college degree, they're not equal to you. Talented ten y'all need to have a ceat two. You're wrong because blue collar is critically important and it takes the degrees, but also blue collar jobs. So again, we have to look at what works for you. If somebody's paying one thousand dollars a student dad, yeah that's gonna matter to them, just like if you're paying one thousand dollars in child support, it mattered to you if that's something you like, Hey, don't. I don't think Florida should happen where if I don't pay child support and I don't have a driver's license, they take your driver's license. But I'm going to Florida. I never mest so many people didn't have drivers license in my life because they didn't pay child support and they got two behind and they still was paying the best that they could. They lost a job, they got on their ass. They wasn't just dead be dad's situations put them in that way. Let me deal with this because it's another I'm just giving y'all a bunch of game today. Another talking point. Y'all talk about how, oh yeah they got they got motivated in the sixties to be single. I really don't want to go there, but I do got to say this while we're there. Oh they was, they was incentivized to be single. Mamas. Yeah that's true, But ain't nobody incentivize you to walk away either? Who incentivized you? I don't know no man in my family that walked away from his children. Can't You can't make my ex husband walk away from his child? What incentible? Can't You can't incentivize him enough. You couldn't centivize my daddy enough to walk away from me. So even if she got incentivized to get on Section eight, that ain't incentivizing your ass or not take care of your kids and be a part of their life. So let's stop that blame game. Y'all love that talking point. It is true, but ain'tbody telling you not to take care of your family.

That.

Let's just keep it a buck. Men take do men do men things, even if you got a trash baby mama, I remember shout out to trade the truth. Those of you follow him on instant. He put his whole story out when he was fighting to see his baby girl. He put it all out publicly because he wanted people to know I'm putting it all on the line to see mine. You couldn't incentivize him to not stay away from his baby girl. So now, men that want to be in your children's life, you will be in your child's life. Come hell loud water. If you gotta go to court, if you gotta do whatever, you gotta lay your body down, whatever, whether you got money or don't have money, you gonna show up. You're gonna be something. So let's stop. Yeah, let's stop these talking points about talking about what happened in the sixties. Were talking about right now twenty twenty four. Get your ass involved in your child's life. And it's not always gonna be a two parent household. It is what it is. Sometime relationships don't work out. That has nothing to do with your relationship with your child. We'll be talking. We'll be talking about that on tens on ten. By the way, I just wanted to put that out there because when I come to Twitter, you know, I gotta I try to give my two cents on a lot of the same talking points that y'all put out over and over and over and over and over. Yeah, the white man has centivized y'all in the sixties. This twenty twenty four. Brother, what are we up here talking about? You're gonna pay the child's reporter, you ain't, You're gonna take care of your child or you ain't. It's just that damn simple. And yes, women, let me be fair because I know y'all like make sure I'm fair. Yes, women, you better to stop going to get your at. You should be supporting health care than anybody because you absolutely supporting planning. Parent is not about just abortion. It's also about getting you birth control of IUD get you some pills. I was married thirteen years. I didn't have my first child and my only child with my ex husband. This is his only child. We waited seven years. I'm not just gonna sit up here and have nobody and my husband better than my ex husband, better than a whole lot of y'all husbands y'all live with. I'll tell them why it didn't work out, because it just did. It ain't none of your damn business. But he in my life every step of the way, and better than most of y'all. And I mean that can fix anything, stop everything. I live in the city right around the corner from them. We coparing to the highest level. That's why I'm able to do all of this that I do. Shout out to the black men in the building. Make care of their kids. And he's a mechanic, and I helped him start from the bottom from being floating all the way to being a district manager. And this is his only child. By the way, he didn't go out and have no fifteen other kids and no fifteen other women. He said, It'll only be by one woman, my forever wife. And I'm still on healthcare and still on the insurance. Yeah, that's how you get it done, ladies. We have that another other conversation, And y'all know it's true because Marcella's has been a witness when he's popped up over here and said it on the live. Because I love receipts. This is my forever wife. So let's just be clear. I can't get rid of them. Some of y'all looking for a man. I'm trying to figure out how to get rid of them. So let's not the run of receipts on that. What's the next question. We don't currently have anyone else in the key. Nobody else has anything to say, no feedback. I appreciate you guys tapping in put a one hundred if you love these random conversations where we're tapping in, you know, across the board. I love when you guys chime in and makes the show fuller. It is really important that I engage with you guys, It really really is. Jay you said, I need to tell him block somebody. That person is still here, because I would love him to come forward and explain why he blocked me. Sure, actually you blocked him because I believe he was trolling.

He wanted to repent for his trollish ways. So I will get on that right now. I'll come.

Yeah, I'll be interested to know. I'll be interested to know why is trollish ways? Why are you come before the congregation and less repent? Because it's always love in my heart and the receipt show it like I love my people. You can't run me off nowhere when every talking about we don't ran you ain't ran me off? No, damn well ran me off? What we run me?

How?

You run me off anywhere? You ran me straight to where? And for what?

Justin I will say this, I know this your hold spaces A lot of people be on their best behavior because I see some folks that don't act like this.

Another spaces, but.

Your house. I'm gonna sitting there with my drinking post up.

Well, I mean, hey at the n day. See. The thing is, you gotta be able to back it up with receipts. I don't get on here and just be talking and theorizing it. Well, what we need to do, brother and sister and brother brother, you got to come with the receipts with me, and they ain't got to like me, but I'm gonna run the receipt This is Google verifiable shit. This ain't theories, This ain't talking. This ain't oh yeah, you doing it for you doing it for cloud? You doing? Are you crazy? I have a contract with iHeart Radio sers and ma'am, I don't get paid off. No damn clicks on no YouTube, but y'all crazy, not at all. I really rock with y'all because I just rock with y'all. It's hard to fight the receipts Storr, and it really is. It's not about bragging, it's just keeping it real. Telling when people come at me and they think they know me and think, don't worry, just follow me a little while longer, and it's gonna all make sense. Them receipts gonna all make sense. I've been talking about the same thing for the last fifteen years while everybody else talking about everything else. Every other day they talking about everything else. I'm gonna be talking about the same shit, whether it's twenty people listening. It's consistency at the end of the day. And when I throw back then receipt, you can't. You can't. The facts are the facts.

And you know it test real quick. The sad part is it's even when you bring receipts and you're just trying to give information, right, but for some sad reason, people will feel like you're trying to one up them and want to argue with you. And I'm like, family, I'm not. Nobody's trying to one up you. I'm just sharing information. It's like you said, it's all google ble. That's just a sad part. I wish we could just share information like you're doing here tz and and people not trying to just one up you all the time.

Well I'm welcome. I welcome the one up. So for me personally, I welcome the one up because it's gonna take about two up with me. I welcome. I welcome the one up. If you're gonna tell me about a campaign, I'm gonna ask you when the last campaign you worked, Well, you know I ain't worked on camp. Okay, then what are we moving on to the next caller? So I like the one up. I welcome the one up. I like one on one. Let's go one on one. Let's go one on one. When it comes to me and you're challenging me, I don't like talking to talk. If we're gonna talk about it, we did to talk about like that brother that got up tread. I believe when he got up and said he worked on the campaign, and then when he mentioned Cleveland, it wasn't nothing for him to He couldn't combat what I said because I was her director of com so surely he know what I said. Was the truth. I could have went along with and said, oh man, they did send it to turn and so wrong. That's a friend of mine. I had her on the Breakfast Club this morning. I went out of my way to make sure she was quoted on the Breakfast Club this morning. She didn't ask me to do that. I did that. Don't nobody rock with her harder than me. But I'm still gonna tell you the truth. And the truth of the matter is she hadn't been on the ground in six six years. That made a difference. And when Tred said, well, they wasn't supporting her on this app. Can't nobody on this app makeup? When they raised a lot of money, they came down they don't vote in Cleveland. Them people that's supporting on this app do not voting Cleveland. That made a difference. Rashida to Lee walked the dog on. They ass they raised just as much money, if not more, But that woman works on the ground. Do y'all realize that Detroit doesn't have Detroit as the black city outside of Jackson? I believe, Do y'all realize there's no black representation from Michigan none. They outworked in black folks I know because my girlfriend worked up the person that was running against Rashida Telee. Rashida Lee walked the dog on them when it comes to knocking on that door. So you can't just say, oh, it's just money. How did they do it? That same organization, the same organization went after Rashida Saliba. I've never met Sharida's sleeper of Rashida's leber damn my life, but I know she ran circles around them, seven black people she was running against, and they come down to knocking on them doors. That's why Biden better be very afraid of Michigan, because when it comes to the American in the Muslim population, they ain't playing no games with you. It ain't just Twitter with them. They about that door bused. You can believe that. I know because I worked in that state. That's why she was Rashida Telei and the other person I forgot his name American and the Muslims run run that not black people. The establishment, all of them touring, they all rent, and she walked the dog on all seven of them because you cannot out work her. The lady that she was running against, aka Establishment, The same organization that tried to take down Rashida, to try to take down Nina Turner put the same money behind her, and she got her ass dusted because she didn't show up to nothing. She wasn't working, the people didn't believe in the Rashitas lead did better in the hood than she did. And she was a former elected officials, the former city clerk. No, she thought she could just walk her ass up in there and take that seat where shea's leave ad news for her. And she's the loudest in Congress, constantly getting in trouble. When you got your city on lock, can't nobody keep you from that seat. She works the ground. Her work ethic beat all of them black people. That's really what it is. At the end of the day. I know a lot of these people that need to get some subscribes and clicks and likes and all of that, who ain't never worked on no race. I'm telling you what it is, baby, on that damn crown. You got to work on this ground. It's the hardest thing ever. It's hard to get candidates and get them doors slammed in their face. Thought, that's the only representative. Cool, that's the elected one. Okay, Yeah, you might be right. I'm not sure, but I know it's too. I know she's I'm familiar with Rashida Sale's race, uh because my girlfriend Jay you know, Michelle, she worked on the campaign against her. So I had a very inside view of watching why the how the dog got walked on them even with all the money a pack, the organization, the Jewish organization, that's the largest pack in the in the country, the most powerful pack. They put the same money behind Rashida's lead. Go google it, and she beat them. She beat him. She knows her. She ain't out there talking to people that don't rock with her. She talking to the people that rock with her. That's the key. And they got that shit on lock in Michigan and that's why, and that's why you don't have any black representation in Michigan. So yes, people supported in a Turner financially, but they did not live in the city of Cleveland enough. And she did very well and honestly, in my opinion, better than what I thought, because that district votes seventy percent Joe Biden period. Now go runner in California, y'all encourage it. I told her, go to California, you win right out the gate. You want to be in Congress so bad. I think she's better, more effective outside of Congress. But that's just my personal opinion. Let me unblock whoever, let me unblock. I got it now, Jay, okay, And then nextcept we have Immortal Melanie followed by run out, and I've unblocked the person to come before the congregation and on their trollish ways. Because by the way, I don't even know these people that was trolling and making disc records and all this old bullshit. I'll give shit about which I'll talk about. I don't rant one three awards since then, the United States Department of Congress u CLA black lawsuitents chased minority entrepreneur a year. I don't give the shit about them disc records. You can run them back back, send it to me. I'll put a high sixteen on it. Be more strategic. Can say, hey, Tess, can you get on the with us. I'll get on the witch you and we can do it back and forth. It hit them up. I can't wrap.
