Today's show is pre recorded. Y'all know what time y'all don't know. Y'all all suit giving them like the million bucks things and the stubs star true good Steve listening to the other for st Please I don't join joining me. You gotta turn you're going to do? You are? You gotta turn to turn them out? Turn you love, got to turn them out. Then turn the water the water go. Come come on your baby, h I show will a good mind and everybody you're listening to the voice, come on dig me now one it only Steve Harley got a radio show. Okay, here we go today, folks. This is a good one because today I want to share with you something that affects every living soul, and that one thing is your attitude. This affects everyone. It is your attitude. You know. I don't know if anyone's ever told you, but I mean many of you who listen know this. But there are a lot of people who don't understand a positive attitude can bring about a change. A positive attitude can bring about a change. Well, now here we go with the nay says, well, Steve, what you mean if I'm just positive being changed? My mom I'm a gonna what me being positive got to do with that? Okay, Now listen to me carefully. A positive attitude can bring about change. Well, okay, Steve, I hear you saying that, But they didn't fired me. So now what does my having a positive attitude have to do with the fact that they fired me? Well, one more time. A positive attitude can bring about change. Or Steve, I set up in here and gave eight nine, twelve years of my life to this man and he just he cheated on me and walked out. Now what does me being positive have to do with him cheating on me? How that's gonna change that? Okay, here we go again. A positive attitude can bring about change. Now listen to the whole thing. Now, the positive attitude and the change that can happen starts. This is just start. It starts within you. See, life is ten percent. What happens is what you do about what happens. Okay, you gave twelve years of your life to this man. He cheated and left you hold in the bag, the kids and everything. Now what does being positive have to do with changing that? Or they came in and they fired you. You lost your job. That you was a stellar performer at But now how does you having a positive attitude? How does that change things for you? So far? You can use any example. Here's what happens when you have a positive attitude. What it produces within you is a positive approach to life. And when you have a positive attitude and a positive approach to life, it causes you to be optimistic, to have a positive out look, to expect things to event turn around and and and and turn into a positive That's very important because as the law of attraction comes into play, if you think positive thoughts, you attract positive things. If you think evil thoughts, you attract evil to you. You know, if you want for nothing, then nothing comes your way. If you want for a positive attitude, if you want for positive results, if you want for a great outcome, that's what you attract to you. The change will begin within you. So let's take the man that walked out your life and left you hold in the bag. Here's a positive attitude. Okay, two things have happened as positive here. Number one, you've ridded yourself of someone who is obviously going to be, if not already been, toxic in your life, cause you many restless nights, a lot of uncomfortable feelings, an uneasiness, not sure, insecure purity. You've been going through it with this person, whoever they are. Number One, that person has been released from your life. Number Two, it allows you now to have the someone who will treat you just the way you want to be treated. That's the positive outlook, that's the optimistic way. That's when you're a positive person. You see the positive in things that happened to you, instead of burying yourself under the what's wrong with it? A old woe is me now? Concept? See a positive attitude. When they came in there and they fired you and let you go, could this not have been just the opening you needed to finally start on a new career path that you've been talking about doing anyway? Could it possibly be a brand new chance for you to get the dream job or dream career of your choice. Could it not possibly be the perfect opportunity now for you to finally finally something about that gift, about that talent that God gave you, that thing that you love to do. Could it not be the perfect time for you to pursue that? But if you don't have a positive attitude, then you lay there. Oh they finned come getting my house? Oh what I'm gonna do now? All this unemployment ain't enough. Oh Lord, when this unemployment run out, what am I gonna do? Then I won't have nothing? And you old woe is me until you become old woe is me. But if you take it from the positive approach, some amazing things can happen in your life. I will tell you on a personal note, that's some of the most some of the best changes. Some of the biggest moments in my life came after a loss. So I don't want to go down on the list, but boy, I could tell you. Let me let me tell you something. When they didn't want me on the radio anymore in La, when they didn't when they went it was sick of the way I did radio out there, and they wanted me gone. And on May twenty third, two thousand and five, when my when when when my deal was done? With the beat out in La? Okay, Look what happened though, y'all? I was gone in May. But in September nineteenth I started to Steve Harvey Radio Network with four cities. You see, But I didn't go old Woe is Me? I said, oh, okay, God must have something else from it then, because if he didn't remove me from this, that must be something else. Same thing can happened when you lose and you and you and you break up in a relationship. Same thing can happen to you. You never know the one God God for you. Now Here you go, Here you go again. Now you get put into a situation with somebody, treat you just to where you want to be treated, provide you the whole lot of aspects of your life you knew nothing about prior to that. But you gotta stay positive. If you stay positive, that positive attitude, that optimistic outlook, that that always thinking God got me no matter what happened to me, some amazing things that's going can will happen in your life. It's a fact. I don't know how it works that way. I just know that's what it is. Positive attitude is everything, y'all. So get off the old woe is Me negativity train because it ain't gonna take you nowhere but down and get get your outlook up. If you change your attitude, you change your altitude. Altitude is determined by your attitude, how high you go, how big you become. How far you go. It all depends on how you think. It all depends on what type of attitude you got. It ain't no, ain't no very very successful, super negative people. It just doesn't coincide that way. If you see that something that happened to them along the way, and don't weary. You ain't gonna worry about it because you ain't gonna see them long because you can't stay up there like that. It's just too hard, all right, that's the conversation you're listening show, Ladies and gentlemen, man, I have your undivided attention. Please. This is the home of the Steve Harvey Morning Show.

More arrests over the weekend, and federal charges were filed against the domestic terrorists who attack the Capitol last Wednesday. Plus, we're going to talk about how Twitter and other social media platforms have suspended President Trump's account indefinitely, Thank the Lord.

Yeah yeah, let's pull some of this for four years. Yeah yeah, right, he could hold press conferences like, you know, like normal presidents. He could hold press conferences and get it off his chest. But anyway, he suspended now indefinitely, and right now it is time to help some of our listeners. Steve with asked the clo are you absolutely all right? Here we go. This one is from Danielle in Ohio. Danielle says, I've been with my boyfriend for five years and he cheated on me. In October, I met the girl and she did knew. She didn't know he had a girlfriend, and she said they never had sex and she would stop seeing him. He begged me to forgive him, and I did. Then this girl posted a picture of Air Jordan's that she got for Christmas with the caption we match him. Now. My boyfriend had those same shoes. He said it's a popular style, and he swore he hadn't even seen her. I hate to call her again, but I need to know what should I do? Well, you know, um, I don't know how to answer this, honestly, because the girl told you they never had sex. I don't know what's happening here. You know she did. He was seeing her talking to her.

We haven't had sex at all, and he's getting antsy. He wants to take our relationship to the next level, which means sex. To me, it means marriage. Should I give in or not?

And also the slew Foot Ministry, the stupid the church maners have decide of that we we're gonna use the left over champagne from New Year Lead for communion wine. That should save us some money. Do you have a problem with that? I do, because it's flat and that ain't gonna give you that burning sensation of the blood going down that we lonely get from Morgan David was bubbly. It would be all right that No, we're not doing champagne. We got to get what we gotta make it that's red. It has to be red like the blood that is the ship. There's a moth communion. So no, we won't be doing any champagne. All right, this one is for you pass the eye. The Jacksonville Jaguars have the number one pick in the NFL draft. Seems like, uh, they want to pick the police officer that was running up the stairs at the Capital to be on the team. But he doesn't have any representation, and he's asking if you would represent him as an agent absolute will or they're back pedal in his hip squibvel movement. He would make a great safety, the way he could turn being over, scoop up a football look like he could throw it. He made several throwing motions with that. Whill I was very impressed with him. Athletic skill running up steps back, which they're gonna put that drill in the combine next year. Off. Really, that's gonna be a football drill. We're gonna be good right there. We're gonna put it. Man. We're gonna trade him to the Washington team so in case they need him, right there, I don't call there, you won't even have to move. That's a good one. There, all right, I passed the last, but not least. Next week we are switching to drive up service. The members want to know when they catch the spirit, is it all right if they do doughnuts in the parking lot. No. The way we're doing this services, we're having our service at the bank teller window, or you just drive in when it can come down. You put your money in and then drive off and then we'll email you the service. What about the service paster, they're driving up to get service, not to leave the money they got. No, no, no, no no. You're driving up, drop off your offering with your email address in the offering and everybody that give will get the service email to them later. That's not what drive up service is passing. But what do you why do you think they called us did jack pot joint us? And I understand why they called it that pass But but you have to give the people something, music and then of course a sermon. All of that has to be a part of the service were But what we're doing for presence this year is when you make your donation, we give you pictures of the protesters, the terrorists that was climbing the wall, and we held on why want that? Well, it's quite interesting. You know there's some of the ain't ticks that they was using. They're not that ain't service that ain't got nothing to do with the low ain't. What is you talking? All right? Coming up entertainment and national news right at? I mean not so sorry, deacon, you're listening to show in today's entertainment news. The Terminator and former California Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger had this to say about Donald Trump. Take a listen. President Trump is a failed leader. He will go down in history as the worst president ever. The good thing is that you soon will be us irrelevant as an old tweet it now now you won't be back. Wow, we'll be back. The Republicans n Republican to old tweet well and other entertainment news is you probably probably know by now. President Trump has been banned from Twitter permanently. Also, other social media sites that are banning Donnie include Facebook, Instagram, Pinterest, and Snapchat. Also, Apple is threatened to remove Parlor. It's a social media app that a lot of extremists use. So he's he's they're considering banning him from that as well. So wow, he'll probably knowing him creating I'm sorry, well what about only people who died from COVID? And he was saying all that and nothing, right, nothing, he's just wow, heartless jay. Yeah. But you know what, though he has made America great again. Though he lost the president, we got control of we got control of the House. I think America great again, don't you think? So we got it all that. We're definitely better without him at the helm. That's yeah, and and and and and in spite of what he was said, you know, this will be the end of the greatest presidency in the history of out nation. That's a lie to Yeah, and so you know, let's just let's just be done with it. Yeah, I agree with Arnold the worst president ever? All right. Um. In other trending news, guys, Amazon founder Jeff Bezos has been toppled from the world's wealthiest pedestal. That title now belongs to Tesla and space X entrepreneur Elon mumk. Yeah, well, well keep listening, you'll get even sadder. His net worth as of Thursday exceeded one hundred and ninety five billion dollars with a bee or ten ten billion dollars more than Bezos. And the five richest people on the planet in order are now Musk, Bezos, Bill Gates, French businessman Bernard Arnault, and Facebook's Mark Zuckerberg, who has the easily one hundred and two billion dollars in the bank. Don't give me any one of the any one of them out And that's that's they talk about in the world. But that is so not true. That is so why do you what do you mean, Steve. The people in the Middle East man, Oh, with the oil money, you know, they just thought this ja just don't report it them dude, that's not They won't make the top ten over that.

And I kid you not. I kid you not. No. I would love to be any one of them named Yeah, in terms of money, I wouldn't want to be them, but I'll take the money. Yeah, would you be doing the show? Oh? What all right, Steve, Let's move on. Time for the headline. Ladies and gentlemen, Miss Anne Trip, thank thank you everybody. This is entered with the news that's starting out with a serious how Speaker Nancy Pelosi says that the Vice President Pence doesn't involve the twenty fifth Amendment to remove Donald Trump from office immediately, that she will initiate impeachment procedures today, calling Trump deranged, unhinged, and dangerous. DC Delegate Eleanor Holmes Norton says though an official censure, she said could be better, security now reportedly being tightened for members of the Congress in and out of Washington in the wake of the riot. According to NBC, at least three lawmakers will harassed at DC airports for not supporting the effort to overturn the election results. So now the Washington Metropolitan Airports Authority and US Marshall they're asking members of Congress to submit their travel plans if they're coming in and out of the DC area. President Like Biden, meanwhile, says he wants to search and arrest of those involved in last week's deadly assault in the nation's capital continue, and he also says somebody has to also address the obvious. No one can tell me that have had been a group of Black Lives Matter protesting, they wouldn't have been treated very, very differently. And the mob of thugs that stormed the Capitol, we all know that's true, and it is unacceptable, totally unacceptable. And now the US government's preparing for a massive number of prosecutions and for a wide array of potential crimes. US Attorney for the District of Columbia is Michael Sherwin. We're looking at everything from destruction or property, to theft the property, to unauthorized access to restricted areas, to potential theft of national security information, to potential murder. A local policeman died after being whacked in the head with a fire extinguisher as he tried to control the rowdy pro trumpers, and the US attorney tells NPR that there could be hundreds of people charge in connection with this one incident before it's all over. President Trump, by the way, his Twitter account has been partly suspended. Facebook says it's too two has temporarily banned Trump from the situation he could last indefinitely. Amazon has joined Apple and Google and cutting access to that parlor social media platform that's the one used by right wing racists and Trump supporters, or some people say Trump worshippers. Parla's accused of not keeping violent threats from circulating on that site. So it's out there, but you can't get to it. California continues to rack up the largest number of COVID infections in the nation. Texas is coming in number two, and coronavirus infections. In fact, the number of COVID patients in hospitals in the gloone Star state remains at an all time high, breaking records every day. Rapper Nicki Minaj has agreed to pay singer songwriter Tracy Chapman just shove at half a mill for using one of Chapman's songs without her permission. Here's Chapman's and then Nicki's same melody, same lyrics. Now back to the Steve Harvey Morning Show. You're listening to stew All Right, everybody, we're back. It is now time regretfully to an inside look at a very very demented mind of a person that I'm responsible for putting on this show. All apologies up front, I'm sorry, man. I've made a lot of mistakes in my career. I'm so sick of making mistakes. I'm trying to figure out how old I got to before I quitn't making mistakes, Ladies and gentlemen, Jay Anthony Brown, It's just a nice happy song now. But I shure you I'm the weekend. I'm going in. Okay, today is Monday, ready, Yeah, Okay, You're gonna lose some friends on the weekend, but right now this is just happy. Okay, Okay, we go hit it one day. I love the song. You didn't get any kids, but you gotta pay them. Huh, little rascal won't money saying meat back, don't worry. Smoke of blood the end of the Trump feeling good, had a rash is gone. It'll stay away if I keep putting save on stealing check. Been waiting so long. Need to get his suit so I can keep my lights on. I know my kids didn't jump for joy. I was broke last year. They only got one toy. Man cage used to be my garage, but my mom moved in. I'm smoking in the backyard. Wat gonna be a good year for me? Ain't gonna be a good one for the trunk. He all on the phone, breaking hello. This is illegal calling hello, something like get me locked up. Did you hit? He just don't give a dance? You know what, I wouldn't want to leave the White House either to get my head in. Sister in charge named Leticia James waiting on minds like the rifle man used to call people, come on out, Trump, come on outside Trump fire, Jay, that's fires White House. And you were the little kid. Gonna be a good year for Trump. Yeah, what kids want? Funny you couldn't. I like children won't. Man, We're gonna you little kids, which you had to pay the right the set up a back this dude, it's so trifling, all right, coming up thirty four minutes after the hour, we'll talk more political stuff right after this. You're listening to show in trending political news, House majority whip Jim Cliborne from South Carolina said that domestic terrorists found his unmarked office during last week's attack that led him to believe the attack was an inside job. Congressman Cliborne Clyburn spoke to CNN's Jake Tapper, and he suggests that untoward police actions. Take a listen. I have an unmocked office that you got to know, jackly where it is. It's where I spend most of my time doing my work as the majority of Whip. I have a staff, we worked for your hard, trying to keep up with the members, trying to make sure be doing effective job of managing the votes. And once they get to the floor, and that office is where I do most of my work. And for some reason, these people showed up at that office. But the office where my name is above the door on the door, and my position above the door was not the stir So I'm just it ain't gonna where my name was. They went where I used to hang out, and so that to me indicates or something untoward may have been going off. Wow. You know, I was listening to him say that earlier this weekend and I didn't understand what he's saying. Now I do. Wow, it's interesting. Yep. Yeah, yeah, I really do think that this. See, because you have a new administration, an all out launch of what's behind this is gonna be under way, and I think they're gonna really uncover some stuff. Had Trump won again, he wouldn't be ordering the Department of Justice to do nothing. But there's a new Department of Justice. Yeah, he's always at odds with them. Trump is he's always at odds with the DJ No no, no, no, no, no no. Surely he's had his boy Bar in there the entire time, well, who has been using as his personal attorney. But now Bar has gone on and that's why I think they'll be able to get something done now. Agreement. Yeah, okay, because if Trump was still in the office, Trump would pardon all these people, man, Yeah, and hold no one accountable for the deaths and the tragedy, none of that, none of that. The FBI also believes that there are people who work in the Capitol who may have assisted domestic attackers and navigating through the building. So the FBI is on it as well.

If you need advice on sex, on dating, on parenting, on work, and more, please submit your Strawberry Letter to Steve Harvey FM and click submit Strawberry Letter. We could be reading your letter live on the air, just like we're gonna read this one right here, right now. Pop Pop, there you go, Jay, buggle up, hold on tight, We got it for you here. It is the Strawberry Letter. All right. I'm gonna tell you just off the top, Temmy, you're not gonna like this letter, okay. Subject, he stinks and I'm shamed. Just Stephen Shirley. I'm a middle aged woman and I've been married for over a decade. I worked two full time jobs, averaging sixteen to eighteen hours a day, usually six days week. My husband has his own business and rarely works a ten hour day and has consistent days and weeks off during his downtime. He finds the time and energy to help friends outside of our home, but can't seem to find the time to help clean our bathroom or wash his clothes. I'm at the point where I wash my own clothes and I let his pile up. Instead of washing his clothes, he goes out and buys new clothes if and when he runs out of underwear or he needs a clean shirt for a meeting. I'm shamed to say my husband smells bad. He takes the clothes he's worked in all day and will lay them over the chair in our bedroom or stack them in the closet, and he goes to one of the piles daily to smell the shirts or pants to see if he can wear it one more time. If for sure to stain, he will get a wet washcloth and spot clean it so he can wear it. He smells like old cologne over dirty jeans most of the time. I have told him continuously that I am not his mate, and I have no energy to do his laundry and mine. He is a representative of meat when he walks out of our home, and when people see him in dirty clothes and he's smelling bad, it's a reflection on me. Don't get me wrong. He showers and puts on clean underwear because he buys new underwear instead of washing his And I've thought about talking taking everything to the cleaners and then handing him the receipt to pick it all up. But why should I have to do that? What can I do to get him to wash? How can he be comfortable with this? Wow? How can he be comfortable with any of this? This is really nasty? And as a grown man, he's lazy, and he knows better. He knows he should be washing his clothes. Even if he doesn't want to be clean for himself, he still has you as his wife, who certainly doesn't want to be smelling him like that. I don't think anyone does. And what about intimacy. You didn't discuss that in the letter, but that, come on, now, how does that work? That? Right? There should be a deal breaker? End of story. None of this makes sense? And I say to you, don't blame yourself. He knows he stinks, he's got to know that you know it. He's got to know it before you do. But I just think the bigger problem here is your marriage overall. What's going on with that? I mean, you guys seem far apart. I mean you're working two full time jobs, six days a week, sixteen to eighteen hours a day. When do you have time for yourself or your marriage? When do you even have time to do your own laundry? Since you say you do it, I don't know. I think you guys are working too hard. You anyway, He's not working enough, but he is helping other people. The stress of that could be the culprit. I mean, you've got stressed because you work too much and you're frustrated with him, and then he's probably frustrated too because he never sees you or whatever. So I suggest cutting back, changing your workload if you can. You know, you guys need to talk and get or get some counseling or something to find out the real problem in your marriage, because there is a problem here. And in the meantime, most definitely take his stinky clothes to the cleaners. At least you can do that. Steve Well, I have all some solutions for this woman. How much time do I have Because I don't want to go too deep for this first break, I got a little bit, so let me just start right here. The subject is he stinks and I'm ashamed. The problem with this letter is see you ashamed, see unto Until he is ashamed, the problem will continue. So with that in mind, I've taken into the account that you work two four jobs sixteen eighteen hours a day, six days a week. The husband rarely puts in more than ten hours a day. He's got some weeks off in some weekends because he owned his own business. But here's the beginning of the problem. During his downtime, he finds a time and energy to help friends outside our home, but ken't seem to find it to help to clean our bathroom and wash his clothes. Now, right there, that's problem number one, because he's out there helping all these people wearing his ass out. No, he might not be putting in ten hour days and all this here at on his job in his business, but he putting in a lot of time with all this helping all these other damn people, and your husband then wore his little tired ass out. Now you're at the point where you're washing your own clothes and you let his pile up, right, But instead of washing his clothes, he go out and buy new clothes when and if he run out of underwear he needs a clean shirt for a meeting. I'm ashamed to say husband smell bad. But now later on in the letter you say he does take showers, but that shirt stake though, because see you ain't say what kind of help he doing. He had that doing yard work. He had that rearranging garages. He had that dropping transmissions and changing all you're gonna get funking doing all it, cutting grass all up in miss pot sALS or tree pruning it far and all is miss parcel. The ladies stay close street, okay. And he over that doing all gardening and working the sand, blasting houses and fend for people and taking Miss Chris shawn garbage out, you know, all this it washing out trash cans for people. Yeah, he's so healthful. He just a little elf Christmas. So when we come back, I have a solution for all right, we'll have part two of Steve's response coming up at twenty three minutes after the hours. He stinks and I'm ashamed. We'll be back right after this. You're listening show, All right, Come on, Steve, let's recap today's Strawberry letter. The subject is he stinks and I'm ashamed. Well, there's man right here. She's married to working part time. He got a business and she working full time. And he ain't cleaning up at the house. He ain't washing no clothes or nothing. He's getting nasty in there. When he run out of clothes, he buying drawls instead of washing them, and and you know, he reaching over smelling shirts and he put her and she just stinks and she's ashamed. Now she is ashamed. So now we have to deal with this. And so I have a couple of them solutions for this woman's problem. See, uh, I know he buying all these things and all this hip, but when he puts these shirts on, then he's been smelling. He seems to not notice the smell. So I'm gonna offer this solution to you. I think the first thing you need to do is get him a COVID test, because it's quite possible that he has lost his smell and taste and he just operating in COVID. And y'all didn't get out here and get the damn COVID test for this lead to a stronger problem. Oh wow, he didn't lost his taste, smell and taste. He don't know these shirts is funking and that leads to a whole another situation. So that's for starter. We need a COVID test. Now check. Here's the other thing I think you need to start doing. First of all, the left type of the letter is he stinks and I'm ashamed. That's another part of the problem. See you a shame, He's not a shame. So I have two solutions for this. First of all, when them close pile up and he may have COVID and don't know it. My strong suggestion is you start burning the clothes that he laying over the chair, take him in the bathroom, put him in the bathtub and set all them clothes on fire. I take him to the cleaner. Well, but now see, I've been homeless before. I had some draws on one time that I had to burn. I'm speaking from experience when I was hard. I didn't think you were gonna say that I had had draws on one time. And when I finally got to a gas station took him off. I left him in. There no need on me putting knees in the car and rolling the wonders in this heat because I got some food in my cool and I didn't want to show the full I've had to leave some drawls out of gas station. So anybody that has got up so no co station down in Tennessee. There was my draws. I apologized. I know somebody's eyelashes and my brows fell off when they opened that dope and didn't know what it was. I want to apologize. It's a case, you know, but you know, the you know what the seven years of you know has passed. You know what they call that statue limitation, so I can't get charged. But there was my drawls in that gas station in Tennessee. I apologized, but I just couldn't stupid, so I wanted I wanted you to know that. And and I you know, I've never been a fan of white drawls anyway, but them drawls, I just couldn't. I couldn't bring myself to even pick them up by my fingertips. I was left from in the flow of that gas station, and you know the smell of gas or nothing could get rid of it, so or I know how you feel, so I suggest he's burning up because I've had to burn some clothes people. Now here's the next thing I think you need to do. He stinks and I'm ashamed. Here's what you have to do. You have to start shaming him. This is what I want you to do. I want you to get a fake account Instagram, Facebook account and go on his page and start commenting on how bad he stinking? What the lasts? To get a fake account and go on his Facebook and Instagram and start posting comments like like little stuff like this, like hold you know, like have you a cute handle? Like I gotta truth be told? Or hold you to it, you know, or catch your name like that ad hold you to it? Or or I ain't take no more dot com or something like that, and just start posting information on that like who the hair white? Whose shirt was that you had on? Just start putting stuff like that, because you can't be the only one in shame. And you can do this and you could get several accounts so to sound like because a lot of people complain it and you know, make it sound like there's some people that he's been helping, you know, like his name is probably like Hallow, this is probably hallowed that here, Dear Hollow, I appreciate you helping me with the trash, but you left something with me that was felt like you didn't help me with the trash, and then just you know, just leave it alone. There's stuff like stupid, you know, like, dear Hallow, appreci appreciate you climbing up in the tree, but Jesus when you climb down that because you got to find a way to shame him, and that's the beginning of all your problem. So so you say, what can I do to get him to wash? And that's how you do it. You gotta have somebody else being shame other than yourself. Thank you for asking me. All right?

You know, with all that's going on oh this week, and shall we say call it politics, I've seen some things, man that I find really really believable. And the reason I say is believable because none of it really shocked me. Because, as my father in law said, who celebrated yesterday his eighty sixth birthday, I was sitting up there and we were watching Seeing Inn together and they were climbing the walls and breaking in and they were talking about arresting all these people. And I asked my father in law, said, Pop, how you feel about all this? And he just said, well, finally they get to see what we've been knowing all alone. And this is an old black man that's been around a long time, and just those really calm words right there kind of pointed out to me of actual exactly how long this has been going on. This isn't my lifetime, this is his lifetime, my father's lifetime. My father today, if he were living, would be one hundred and four or one hundred and four twenty twenty three years. My father would be one hundred and six years old. I believe it's the number one hundred and six or one hundred and four if he were alive today. And my father used to tell me a lot of things, man, And so I've I've been around long time. Look, I turned sixty four, guy Willing, on the sixteenth. On the seventeenth, I've been around a long time. Man. I've seen coloreds only water fountains, colors only, you know, bathrooms. I've seen these signs. Man. I grew up in Welsh West Virginia. I saw it. And so I'm not really surprised about this. I watched politicians try to change course like they weren't on board with this. I wasn't surprised at that. But the surprise of it all for me was Senator Ted Cruz. He stunned me with his speech that everybody knows he's been against President Trump and his rhetoric and words he said for four years. And I'm saying, wait a minute, man, you were just on tape supporting this guy you were just on tape. My message today is simple, listen, y'all, this ain't our fight. Stay out of it. The brother that they had down there inside the Capitol billing what he was there for, I'm clueless. This ain't your fight. Don't worry about this. Let this play out. There's going to be something good come out of this. You just got to let it all play. That was something good that came out of the COVID. They were able to sit still and watch Aubrey incident, watch the George Floyd incident. Here about the Brianna Taylor incident. More non African Americans got involved with what was happening to black people that I've seen in my lifetime. There's gonna be some good come out of this too. You know. I want to remind you all that the power that you put at the poles this year is the reason we have a change stirring in this country. Now they're upset about the change because they want the country back. But remember Trump's slogan the whole time was make America great again. What we discovered us. What they wanted to do was make America like it used to be when they were in total and absolute control, and they could do what they wanted to do, but it's not going to work out. I'm telling you, man, we are making progress. I know there's people that's gonna say, Steve, how can you say that were still in bad shape. I didn't say there wasn't things that need don't need to be changed. I said we're making progress. The thing that I'm most proud about is African Americans and brown people showed up at the poles and made a difference. We were the difference makers this year. So I'm gonna take the good out of this. Let them climb the walls and break the windows and go in the house and let them see what we been knowing all along. We are not surprised. And when they keep saying, you know, this is not our America, it is though it is, it's just you don't like seeing it. But like my father in law said, we've had to see it whether we wanted to or not, and now everybody gets to see it. Let's continue on the progress that we've made. Let's become a powerful voting block. Biden is in because of us, Warnock is in because of us, ours Off is in because of us. We are fifty fifty in the Senate now because we showed up at the polls and made a huge difference. Now, whether a lot of other people that helped in this cause, absolutely, but trust me when I tell you this. If black people did not get to the poles and the numbers that we went to the polls in this results could not happen without us. We have made an impact and we should be proud of what we've done. Now they want to destroy that climbing over the walls, bust. When do we want our country back? You're not getting it back. It was never yours to begin with. Let me tell you whose country this really is. This country belongs to the Native Americans. That's whose country it really is. Let me tell you why America has the strength that it has because it built an industrial labor force off the backs of slaves. When you can run a company and have no cost in running the company, no wages or nothing, you get to become an empire really quick. That's what slavery did. We built this country. But they mad at us. They mad at us because we want to be treated like everybody else. They mad at us because we want to be We want our contribution to matter. But they want us to act like they're doing us a favor. You're not doing us a favor by treating us family. It's not a favor, it's a right. And now now that you you fought us with Black Lives Matter, now we've proven to you that black lives do matter, and I vote matters. I'm proud of us. Keep going to the polls. We will become a voting block in this country and they're going to have to deal with our issues. Thank you, thank you, thank you, and we vollished for all Steve Harvey contests.
