Y'all know what time to y'all don't know y'all have a suit looking like the back down giving them just like the million bucks things and the Cubs. True good it. Steve har listening to the move together for stum, Please, I don't join join me in doing me. Honey, you gotta turn be hurting you go. You gotta turn to turn them out. You got to turn them out. Then turn the water the water go. Come, come on your fad uh huh. I shall well a good morning everybody. You'll listening to the voice. I come on, dig me now, one and only Steve Harvey got a radio show. You know, I think I'll explain something to y'all. You know when I when I wake up in the morning and I say, dig me now, what I'm asking you to do is it's old school, you know, man, And you know you say old people say I dig You know Dad never stop saying it. Sorry, but dig me now. It's just I want you to I don't you really feel me? I don't you to understand what I'm saying, because really, this morning inspiration is all given in the spirit of sharing and love. It ain't about to expose me in any way. That's not the purpose of it. But I found that in my morning inspiration that it's best that I use some things about myself, because I mean, what better example can I use? Because I know me, I know what's happened to me. I knew exactly how I felt all along the way. Because concertaining almost everything, every aspect of my life, I now fully do really understand why God had my life spend the way it spun. And here's the part that I want to give to you this morning, that first of all, whatever position you find yourself in today, we kind of come to one realization that we got ourselves there. We put ourselves there by a series of thoughts and actions. Thoughts turn into things. That's very important to know. So let's look at both sides of it. For people who think negative thoughts, it turns into negative things, and the direct opposite is true. For those who think positive thoughts, it turns into positive things. That's the deal. It's as simple as that, folks. I cannot break it down any cleaner and not make it any clearer. Thoughts become things. So the one glaring question for all of us always is, on a daily basis, what are you thinking? What are your thoughts? What are you thinking? What are your thoughts? Because I can assure you and it's not by or promise of mind. This is not a theory that Steve Harvey then came up with. This is a fact of life. This is biblical, this is spiritual, this is written, This is philosophical. This is the law of the universe. However, you need to drink this medicine to take to get it down and feel what I'm saying to you. This is just the way it is now and here the cold part, folks. It don't matter if you believe me or not. It does not matter if you have never been explained this or not. And it does not matter if you think it works in your life or not. It don't matter. Listen to me. It is the way it is. It is as scriptural, it is as spiritual, it is philosophical, it's just whatever. It's the law of the universe. You call whatever you want to call. However, you got to dress this thing up to put it into phase that you can feel me. I want you to feel me now, because this is all it is. So when I say that you are where we are today because we thought ourselves here or your best to believe that's true. You thought yourself here, no one else. See. Let me explain something. I got people around me who so badly want to take credit for it, but I don't allow it. But because I keep pointing to the heavens, I keep pointing and trying to say it out loud as many times as I can without being so offensive, that my life is by design, by grace and mercy, by blessings from God. My life is because God has seen it to be so. Oh, but I got plenty of people around me want credit for and want you to not give credit to God and give it to them. I got that. I got that, but I understand that. See, I understand what that is. That's a person whose design is to get the credit. But it's okay. It's so clear to me what my father was saying to me. Man, I get it. As I get older and older, he always said to me, son, everybody come with you can't go with you. See. You know, I don't know how people say that in church. You know, sometimes they go people come into your life for seasons, and I guess the same thing. You know, they season up, they're gone, well, you know, and then but then hither way they try to hold you though, or you're gonna forget where you come from. Oh, you ain't keep it real no more. And so you find yourself trying to not forget where you come from and keep it real no more. But to what end is it to the good of your end? Or is it to the good of the end? To what end is keeping it real and not forgetting where you come from if it does not allow you to progress and move forward. I got where I come from. I don't want to stay that no more. I don't forget where I come from. I know full well what I've been through. But that's what drives me, because I don't want to go back to that. That's the push for me. I don't want that no more. I don't want to go back where I come from. I don't want to keep it that real no more. It was real enough for me living in the car. I had enough of that real. I don't gonna keep it real now. I don't keep it real. I want to go keep it dreamy. I want to go keep it fantasize it. I want I want to I want to keep it out of this world. I want to keep it off the chain. I want to keep it moving, I want to keep it ball, and I want to see it that's like so naw, I ain't gonna forget where I come from, but you ain't gonna hold me to that thought. See, thoughts become things all day long? Where's your vision board? Where are the things that you won't written down? What do you think about the most? How grateful are you for what all God has done for you? Where you at with that? See here another law? If thoughts become things, or here come the moment, y'all, If thoughts become things, let me ask you this. If all you thinking about is your debt, If all you're thinking about is what you ain't got, If all you thinking about or is old, woe is me? If all you thinking about is every time I turn around, I'm sick. If all you thinking about it's the things in life that you're lacking. If that's all you're thinking about, and if thoughts become things, how much debt you think you're gonna stay in? How much? How much how much lacking you think you fin to feel your life with? How much most stuff you find to not have because you keep thinking about it all the time? When you're gonna be grateful, when you're gonna say thank you, when it's gonna come out your mouth. Man, that I may not be where I want to be, but I sho am grateful for what you've given me so far, for the things I have to date, because I don't have to have these things. You know that does? That then opens up room for more stuff to come your way. To be grateful fall. But if you're gonna be ungrateful, man, let me ask you something. I ain't God, I don't claim to be, But let me ask you something. Man, If you're ungrateful for the things we've got, we can't show no gratitude for what we have. Why would God give us some most stuff to be ungrateful for? What would he do that for? Man? I blessed you with that. You ain't like that I gave you this. You ain't saying nothing to me about that. You ain't feeling me on this right here. So I'll tell you what. Man, Let me stop giving this dude something because he just over here he ain't glad for nothing. Because if I give him some mold, he gonna be mad about that too, Tad. Anybody feel me right now? So when I say come on, y'all, dig me. Now, do you understand why I say dig me? Because I want you to feel me. I want you to understand and come to the understanding, not saying you ain't. Because so many people got a deeper understanding than me about this whole thing. I promise you they do, but they listen to me. I'm just trying to get you to walk up in this light, man, so you can go on with your life and quit tripping yourself out with your thoughts, because thoughts become things, all right. All days you're listening show ladies and gentlemen might have you undivided attention. Steve Harvey Morning Shows about to do what Timmy, We're about to pop the pop pop off?

They all paid their final respects to Nipsey Hustle at a celebration of life memorial service yesterday at the Staples Center. But first in today's entertainment news, Wendy Williams has filed for divorce from her husband, Kevin Hunter. Yeah. Yeah, yeah, a lot of people were wondering if she was ever going to do it, and here it is. The split comes after nearly twenty two years of marriage and most recently Kevin's alleged mistress, Sharena Hudson having a baby. Wendy's been going through a rough patch. She's been going through a lot lately, living at a sober house and getting round the clock help to deal with addiction issues. Wendy and Kevin, who's also been her manager, you're for quite a while, have been married for more than twenty years, as I mentioned, twenty two. They have one son together. Wow. Who they be married twenty do you? Yeah? No? No, Wendy been married not clarity, Clarity, who've been married? In him? No, Wendy's been married? Wow. Yeah. If this was another celebrity, she would be talking about it big time, right about it. She would be. That's that's what she does. And I also warned on TMZ, Shirley, did you hear this that the papers were served to Kevin on the set of the show? Oh? No, I didn't, because he's manager. He was a producer EP. Yeah, he's an EP manager. And they said they had extra security there just in case, you know, he was upset or you know, who are you gonna trip with? Huh? I don't. But but let me just say this, it's hard. It's easier. It's hard to talk about yourself. It's way easier. I'm sure to talk about other people's problems, but to talk about Lord, I don't wish that on anyone. We're here the best hope she comes out on the other side a better person and actress Lori Laughlin didn't anticipate getting jail time in the college admission scandal. Excuse me. Yeah, Now that she and her husband Massimo are facing up to forty years behind bars, she's freaking out. She's also kicking herself for not taking the deal that Felicity Huffman took. Turns out that, yeah, Laurie Laughlin thought prosecutors were bluffing the whole jail time thing. Who was the plea deal that other ladyship four to ten months? Something like that? Four to ten months? Yeah, I don't think they get in a sentencing Parma. But she did plead guilty. We do know that. Yeah, But have y'all not looked at y'all keys and realize what they're not gonna be? Have y'all not realized? Am I the only one? Have you not looked at your kids? And do you not fens to be president? I got a couple of that I know ain't gonna be president. You ain't been to be a doctor or lawyer? I see that. So I'm not gonna spend a half a million on you for something I know you're not fensed to be. Why would I do that? Why would I do Why would I? Why would I invest in that? You're not fensed to be that? You're just keeping it real If you're not, you ain't your doctor, white doctor, stupid? You ain't fensed to be nothing other than that? Wow? Wow, Well, anyway, she's seeing the light now, Thank god, she's taking it seriously now forty forty years and uh, she and her legal team are looking at things quite differently. Now, Steve, what does she think though? I guess that you know, if what you if if you up with some charges and the crime could hold up to forty years, at what point do you start thinking foe of them would be well yeah, yeah fo days don't. But if you've been getting by and paying for things and being rich and living this fabulous life, I mean that's her world. So Dame, all right, we gotta get to uh, why why I can't be rich with your dumb ass Keith? Why can't we got ladies and gentlemen, miss and trip. Thank you very much everybody. This is a trip with the news. President Trump held talks at the White House yesterday with South Korea's president, and after their discussions, both of you are stressed the need for diplomacy, especially where it concerns getting nuclear talks back on track between the US and North Korea. However, the President made it clear that any renewed discussions on the North nuclear arsenal would not involve lessening of any sanctions. Want sanctions to remain in place, and frankly, I had the option of significantly increasing them. I didn't want to do that because of my relationship with Kim Jong un. I did not want to do that. I didn't think it was necessary, as you know, a couple of weeks ago, I held it back. Trump added the quote, good things came out of February's talks with North Korea's leader Kim John. I guess we'll have to see that. By the way, it looks like the Trump administration is still bent on training the eyes of the nation on out of space. From you, I guess not. This president wants to establish a sixth branch of the military that he wants to call Space Force, and his job would be to protect us interest from above real life, your emission to explore strength. That was Acting Secretary of Defense. I was trying to get him, Patrick Shanahan, he was testifying before the sent He want to hear what he said. Every member of this committee has access to the classified threat picture. But the bottom line is the next major conflict maybe one or lost in space. That's what he says.

Among the twenty one in attendance were Nip's famous friends like Kendrick Lamar, Chance the Rapper, Cassie master P and Romeo and President Obama sent a heartfelt letter and Stevie Wonder spoke and he spoke about gun control. Take a listen, stronger guns. It's unacceptable. It's almost like the world is becoming blind. I pray that we will grow. I pray that the leaders who have a responsibility to perpetuate life, we'll do it by making sure that the laws will make it so very hard for people to have guns and to take their frustrations out to kill life. I'm very happy that in his short life he was able to motivate people, and I hope that it motivates you enough to say, listen, enough of people being killed by guns and violence. I hope that we don't just talk about it, but we be about it to make a difference for our future. Wow. Powerful and so true. You know, Look, look, man, to get the gun laws in place, we're going to have to change so many things. The number one thing is the NIA cannot be one of the number one contributors to the Republican Party. You don't understand that they are one of the top contributors, if not the top contributor to the Republican Party. They back Republican candidates. If you come out and speak against the right to carry in arms in this country, they pull the money from you. Not only do they pull it from you, they put it behind your opponent. And these people are not willing to give up their power, position or money to save nobody like that. Right. There is the ugly, ugly truth of this country. Because we're not, by any stretch of imagination, largest country in the world, but we have the most gun violence depths of any of them, and we have the most inmates of any of them. And we're making mistakes, man, we are making mistakes. Yeah. Here were the number one drug using country. Yeah, I don't know, nobody use more drugs than us.

Know Sureley, I'll say this, I've never lost you know, my wife, my lover, and she lost her man hellover, you got to be an incredibly strong person to talk at that funeral. Yes, lord, this is what Lauren London said. Take a listen. You've given me the opportunity to really love a man. You've been with me while I've been sick. Through all my fears, you have encouraged me and inspired me to reach higher. I've learned so much about myself with you. You've been my turn up and my church. I wouldn't want to go through this journey with anyone but you. I look up to you in a lot of ways, and I'll strive to educate myself more like you have. And when we are at odds, I feel defeated and sad knowing that we are so much better than that. I just want you to know that you've been You've been the greatest boyfriend to me. You weren't perfect, but I would never ask you to be. You and I work, we fit, and you're the coolest guy in the world to me. Still, I love you so much, unconditionally. My truth is this, I'm never gonna give up on you. My love and my devotion is to you. And I sent that January twenty first, twenty nineteen. I had to write something because I've never felt this type of pain before. But I know that God is alive. But bear with me. All his soul was majestic. He was the strongest man that I ever knew, a gentle father, a patient leader, a divine light. He was brilliant. He researched everything, completely self taught, constantly seeking knowledge. He would he would go to bed and listen to these audio books and his headphones, and I would tease him, but that really is what I thought was the coolest ever about him. And he would wake up in the morning and play music for the kids and light a sage and burn it around the house and just make sure that our energy going outside would be uplifted and that we could handle the day. You know, my pain is for my two year old that probably won't remember how much his dad loved him. Um, this is something that you know, I never I don't really understand, but I know that aramis always used sets people that you experienced them, and I'm so honored and blessed that I got to experience such a man.

Okay, we could be reading yours live on the air, just like we're reading this one right now. Buckle up, hold on tight. We got it for you. Here it is. That's straw very alright, was kind of prank callish. All right, here we go. What's wrong with her chipping in? Is the subject? What's wrong with her chipping in? Here's Stephen Shirley. I'm a hard working man. I worked from sun up to sundown, and I do well for myself. Two years ago, I met a very beautiful woman who I can see myself being with for the rest of my life. About a year into the relationship, we moved in together and started planning for the future. I was recently laid off from my job and I had to find a new one. She was not working at the time. Money was getting tight, so I took a pay cut. I asked my girlfriend if she could get a part time job just to help out with expenses. She said, you know you are the man, therefore you're the one that's supposed to provide. I wanted to do fifty fifty, but she says no roommate. So I did the worst thing and would says she's yeah, oh, I'm sorry, right. I didn't think that sounded right. I wanted to do fifty fifty, but she says she's no roommates. So I did the worst thing and went to Facebook for advice. It backfired and I got called a little boy. There are a lot of single women who feel this way. I thought relationships or marriages were partnerships. I don't make six figures, surely, and I'm not going to be this girl's father. Please help. Okay, Okay, if you don't make six figures, that's okay. It's whatever works for you, guys, in your relationship. And clearly this is not working because you're the only one working. You are working, though you may not make as much as you used to make. You said you took a pay cut, but she's not working at all. Now, you guys have to develop set up some ground rules, some boundaries here. Now she's not gonna work at all? Is she able to work? Is she capable of working? I mean, I get the whole. You know, you're the man, you're the provider type thing in a marriage. I mean that that's biblical. But does she expect you just to take care of her? She's not going to work at all? What does you mean, like she that doesn't even enter? How she going to take care of herself if you weren't around. I'm not really understanding this. Is she just going to get another man to take care of her and provide for her? Is that where she's at with it? You know, you guys are starting off this relationship on the wrong foot. You'll never make it to the future that you want to see with this kind of lack of communication and just lack of partnership. A marriage and a relationship is a partnership. Two of you have to agree on something and you're this is very very basic. If you can't agree on this, then you guys aren't gonna make it. Really, you're not, Steve, what's wrong with her? Chipping in? It's so many things wrong in this letter, man. And I'm a hard working man. I work from SunUp sundown. I do well for myself. That's nice, brother, appreciate you telling us that, you know, two years ago, I met a very beautiful woman who I can see myself being with for the rest of my life. Now, that's an interesting statement to make. Before he tell us what's happening in this letter, he says he's a hard working man, works sell him sometimes, but he had to met a beautiful woman that he can see himself with the rest of his life. That's what he said. By the year ago into the relationship, we moved in together. Now you're so happy with her, you to move in whatever she that beautiful dog I got you and we started playing for the future because because you said you want to be with her the rest of our life, you saw you scooped up. Bam. Now you casually mentioned I was recently laid off from my job, okay, and I had to find a new one. Well, she was not working at the time. See that? Do you all see the gap in here? Now? She wasn't working at the time or was he? Was he working when she first met him, because all he wanted was this beautiful woman and they moved in together. So I don't know if the woman was once working and she stopped working. But I do know he was working and said he was recently laid off and I had to find a new job. She was not working at the time. Money was getting tight, so I took a pay cut. That don't make no damn sense. The money was getting tight, so I took a pay cut. What that means was he said he took another job because they was laid off. Now money was getting light because he took a pay job. Now block money was getting late. You ain't take a pay cut. You went to work, right, this is what this job paid. You ain't take a pay cut. You went to I got a company to pay less because it's better to have something than nothing, exactly. So that's what that means. Bro. I asked my girlfriend if she can get a part time job just to help out with explosion. She said, yeah. You the man that for you, the one that's supposed to provide. You know why, because that's what you made her think. You made her think that dog because remember you never mentioned that she wasn't working in the beginning. You said at the time when you got laid off, she wasn't working either. Now she had the house with you, she ain't knowing you to make a move. You the man. So now you made a move and it wasn't enough. Now you want her to go to work. Then she say, oh, she called you on it. Now I understand what you're saying. But here where your mistake you keep making. I wanted to do fifty to fifty, but she said she ain't no roommate. Hold on, man, You invite the woman into your house to get a house together because she beautifully you can see yourself spend the rest of lightwooll. Then when stuff got hard, you want her to chip in. She says she didn't want to chip in. Now she wrong for that. She did wrong for that. But then you said you wanted to do fifty fifty. Now you want to turn her into your woman, your wife, and the one you could spend the rest of your life with. To a fifty fifty roommate. I don't blame the girl for saying ain't your roommate. So I did the worst thing. Here you go, see now you keep stacking on stupid. So I did the worst thing. I went to Facebook for advice. Who the hell knows something on faithbook? You went to social media for some advice? Well, hate him up. Boy boy, you went to social media for some advice. Who you think on social media? Man? Have you read the comments that be on social media? I wouldn't they asked. They asked an opinion of nothing, because you're not gonna get a general consensus of nothing. All right, Steve, hang on to your response. We'll have part two coming up at twenty three after the hour, subject what's wrong with her chipping in? We'll be back right after this. You're listening show, all right? Come on, Steve, let's recap today's Strawberry letter, and the subject is what's wrong with her chipping in? With that woman? Yeah? Yeah, yeah, she's so fine. You could see yourself living with her the rest of your life. A year too, it y'all? Moving everything? Grave, man, you work some up to sundown. You're working, man. You never mentioned she was working anhe but all of a sudden you tell me that you got laid off. So when you got re laid off, you had to find a new job. She wasn't working. Money was getting tight, so I took a pay cut. I mean, you wouldn't take a job to pay left? I asked my girlfriend she could get a part time job, just to help out with expecially she said, I ain't gonna do this. Here, you the man that for you, the one that's supposed to provide. Then you said, here, what you got stupid in the matter? I want to do fifty fifty. But she says she ain't no roommate, and I can understand she's right for that. That she was wrong for teking. She ain't taking no part time job to pitch in. That was wrong. So then you got stupid in then and you went on Facebook for advice? Boy? Boy, what is wrong with you? You went to social media for some advice? Do you have any idea? Who owns social media? I do. I do an interview, I get talked about like a dog. I jump around doing a que hot. I get a praise life and I'm so dad. Yeah, I'm I do a cute hot on a video and I get praised. Hold up? Can I just say that video gave me life? Yeah? I just say that. But ain't he the same? Yeah? Boy? I love that video. Boy, But you think, let's see you you you gotta understand what it is, so sir, Then you say you went to Facebook for advice. It backfired and I got called a little boy. Well, you know why backfired because you thought everybody were gonna be in agreement with you, but they wasn't. And you know what, man, a lot of these women technically are correct. Even though I feel she was wrong for saying I'm not getting no part times, I'll help you with no experence. I felt that was filed. I really did, but don't. Yeah, you ain't doing everything you can do to step up. You really not. And I just thank you coming up short. A lot of single women who feel this way. I thought relationships or marriages were partnerships. You ever said. I want you to understand what you think the partnership is. Let's go back to what your idea of what you wanted to do. You said you wanted to do fifty fifty. I'm married. Can I explain something to you on behalf of Shirley and Carlin and Tommy. Marriage is never fifty fifty. I don't know who told that to you, but it's not. Marriage is eighty five fifteen, and you're gonna be damn lucky with that fifteen because most days is you get anywhere from nine to twelve percent. That's what marriage really is. Fellas you don't get to be fifty fifty. Stop thinking you're getting into a relationship and it's gonna be fifty fifty. And you want me to tell you why it's not fifty fifty and it will never ever be fifty fifty because you can't do what a woman does. It's why it can't be fifty fifty. Let me just shut the argument down before you're stupid behind tries to make warm. They can make babies, they can bring human life into this world. You can't. I don't care if you can make six figures a year, you can't make a single baby. You can't tell me your children ain't worth a hundred thousand. You can't tell me your child Somebody told me I'll give you a million dollars I take your child from you. You wouldn't even entertain that, not no decent person would. So now guess what, Since you can't make a baby, how to hell is it fifty fifty? How help me? Brothers, it's not fifty fifty. Just from that thing along, and all of you that have children must respect that fact. And if you don't have a child, and one day you will respect that fact. But I got news for you where all of us can respect. You wouldn't be here if it wasn't for a woman. They ain't a dude living would be here if it wasn't for a woman. It's a woman gave you life somewhere. Well, y'all get this fifty fifty from bros. Just ain't how this work. It's eighty five fifteen on a good day. You'll never get more than fifteen. And you have to take this fifteen and put your pants on and be a man and accept the fifteenth. And it's a good thing. Fifteen percent from a woman who gives you so much is an outstanding Because you're eighty five is the equivalent of fifteen. That go, you're fifty fifty right now? That go your fifty fifty right there, partner, And it's good. The fact that they can give you the loving you need to get out there and make it through another day. That right there, that's a nub. I'll tell you what. That's the way if she stopped giving you this item that you have to have to survive as a heterosexual male, that thing that you have to have to survive, if she stopped giving it to you, what's that worth to you? Six figures eighty five fifteen. What is worth? It's worth whatever. She's not giving zero in this letter though he's sleeping with her. She wrong for not wanting to help out and wrong for Tim to to you that way. But you double wrong if you think this thing fit to be fifty fifty. Now advice I have for you since you don't want to Facebook and now you don't, can't to a straw bad letter if you do it every thing we're talking to God. You need to break up. Yeah, you need to bring come and start over until you get an understanding. And that's all I got to say. Peel, how you want to feel about me? I ain't on faithbook. You called me feel all right? Thank you, sir. You can post your thoughts on Today's Strawberry Letter at Steve f M and then check out our Strawberry Letter podcast on demand. Okay, now, coming up in ten minutes, Steve is here with his tax tips. All right, Steve's tax Yes better? Who better? This Monday is April fifteenth, you know, and that is tax day? Yes? Have you filed yet? We'll be back right after this. You're listening to the Steve Harvey Morning Show. The White House is pushing back at the Democrats quest their request and quest to have Donald Trump's tax returns released. Last week, House democrats requested the release of the last six years of Trump's personal and business tax returns. In an interview with Fox News, White House Acting Chief of Staff mc mulvaney was asked whether Congress should get access to Trump's tax returns. He responded, no, never, you know what, Never you know what. Let me tell you something, man, I don't care anymore about his tax returns because I already know what it's gonna say, and it's not going to stop the people from voting from him, that's voting for him. They're gonna think, like he said, he's a really smart guy. And guess what what he's done is probably legal. I could almost guarantee you that it's just he has manipulated the loopholes to what they fit perfectly into what he's doing. And even if it's not legal, they're aren't gonna care. Nobody, Yeah, nobody cares. They just want him in office. Mulvaney continued, Steve saying Democrats are demanding that the Irs turn over the document. This is not going to happen, and then they know it. This is a political stunt. The President gave a brief explanation as to why his taxes are being scrutinized by the I R S. Take a listen. I'm always under ordered a change, but I've been under ordered for many years because the the numbers are big. And I guess when you have a name, you you're ordered it. Okay, Yeah, there's that up. Everybody cool with that? Now? Yes, yeah, it's not gonna because you have a name, you're ordered it. How about let's get a candidate that could beat him. How about that? You know what? I had Van Jones on my show. He's gonna appear on the show. And uh, you know. He took a lot of flak from quote unquote black Twitter. Yes, there is no such thing as black Twitter because Twitter is on by white folks. Is just black folks tweeter, which is crazy. Yeah, and he said he didn't care. And I listened to him talk man, and he was an interesting guy. He's very very smart with what he did. And what President Trump did was he passed this bill. I can't think of the name of the bill, but let me give you the numbers. Four thousand inmates will be released this year. Okay, twenty five thousand inmates will have their sentences shortened. These are people who are in there for nonviolent drug related offenses. One hundred thousand women who are incarcerated will be able to have their babies in prison without being shackle to the bed. Do you know that if an inmate has a baby in prison, the shackle to the bed. Yeah, they had to pass a law to stop that. And he went and he kept meeting, meeting with Trump's people, and at first he was against it, and then he understood what Van was saying and he gave it to him and they passed the law. Well, just like Mary Ellis, you know, with the help of Kim Kardashian got out out. So this is going to be a trend. You're saying, more and more people are going to get out. What's what's the bigger part of it is what Van Jones did because now he has it as a law, it's a law that these people are going to get out. I don't have to tell you how many of them people it's us. Oh yeah, you number for this now, well, four thousand of getting out this year. Twenty five thousand had their sentences this reduced. I mean they were getting some crazy because these was prison times from the eighties. You know when that crazy crack law came out. Yeah, you know that Clinton did. Did Did he say why? I think it? Did he say why Donald Trump is so into this? Yeah? He said because he wants to do something right. I mean that was Van Jones's thing. He said he wants to do something right. You think that's right? Stick, I think you want to do something right. You think that's the reason. You mean, do you really think he wants to do something right? Well, if he's doing it, what what difference do it make to us? Why? See why he doing it? Because sometimes you know, in trying to reach a peace with an enemy. Uh, the why he wants peace ain't really the other side's part. As long as we get to be as long as we each country stopped bombing each other. I'm pretty sure that's what. Now, what's his motive behind it? I have no idea. You don't know that. I can assure you it has something to do with re election, Yes, because I could assure you he wants to say this. Oh yeah, and you know what, and and he has every right to do it because he's the one that did it. You know, so I'm pretty sure of that. But what difference do it make? We don't have time because Van Jones said, he said, all the inmates he interviewed, all the ones he interviewed, hundreds thousands, he said, not one of them said a man, don't get me out. Wild Trump is okay, thank you, he said, not one of them people say, hey, man, don't get me out, wild trumping office. I don't want him getting credit for that. They just won't out. They need to be out. And man, he said some stuff that was like amazing. Man, he told me some stuff I'm not gonna repeat. I'm gonna just let y'all watch it. We'll tell everybody when it'll air.

You're listening Steve Harvey Morning Show. Uh. Lauren London, Nipsey Hustle's love and mother of his children, of his child, gave a beautiful speech about the love of her life, Nipsey Hustle at a celebration of life memorial service. Um, it was a beautiful service. His brother Sam spoke very eloquently. I loved what he said about his little brother Snoop dog. I mean, so many wonderful speakers, you know, surely I'll say this. I've never lost you know, my wife, my lover, she lost her man hellover. You've got to be an incredibly strong person to talk at that funeral. Yes, Lord, she's what you do. This is what Lauren London said. Take a listen. You've given me the opportunity to really love a man. You've been with me while I've been sick through all my fears. You have encouraged me and inspired me to reach higher. I've learned so much about myself with you. You've been my turn up and my church. I wouldn't want to go through this journey with anyone but you. I look up to you in a lot of ways, and I strive to educate myself more like you have. And when we are at odds, I feel defeated and sad knowing that we are so much better than that. I just want you to know that you've been You've been the greatest boyfriend to me. You weren't perfect, but I would never ask you to be. You and I work, we fit and you're the coolest guy in the world to me. Still, I love you so much, unconditionally. My truth is this, I'm never gonna give up on you. My love and my devotion is to you, and I sent that January twenty first, twenty nineteen. I had to write something because I've never felt this type of pain before. But I know that God is alive. But bear with me. All his soul was majestic. He was the strongest man that I ever knew, A gentle father, a patient leader, a divine light. He was brilliant. He researched everything, completely self taught, constantly seeking knowledge. He would he would go to bed and listen to these audio books and his headphones, and I would tease him, but that really is what I thought was the coolest ever about him. And he would wake up in the morning and play music for the kids and light a sage and burn it around the house and just make sure that our energy going outside would be uplifted and that we could handle the day. You know, my pain is for my two year old that probably won't remember how much his dad loved him. This is something that you know, I never I don't really understand, but I know that aramis always used sets people that you experienced them, and I'm so honored and blessed that I got to experience such a man. I know everyone is hurting. But I'd like to say something to my city, Los Angeles. Y'all from our LA stand up, because this pain is really ours. You know, we know what it meant to us. We lost an incredible soul. We lost someone very rare to us, and we lost a real one and we won't ever be the same. But in Hustle's words, because he used to always say this, the game is gonna test you. Never fold, stay tin toes down. It's not on you. It's in you. And what's in you they can't take away. And he's in all of us. It's an ammis the love of my life. You know what it is. Grief is the final act of love. My heart hears you. I feel you everywhere. I'm so grateful that I had you.

They pull him out, and they gave him blue eyes. Now he dead but he on eighteen. Now, so the head white walker, I called him Skelly. Kelly got up on his back and roll his ass over there to the wall.

John Snow gonna get killed. No, everybody gonna die in this hill. All right, all right, listen, thank you Steve for that. I can't wait to watch coming up next to our last break of the day, and Steve will have some closing remarks coming up at forty nine after the hour right after this you're listening show. All right, Steve, Here we are the last break of the day, on this last day of the week for us, this Friday. It's been an impactful week, a great week. Um, leave us with some closing remarks, you know, Steve, Um, what I want to share with you is something that prevents so many people from becoming successful. And that thing is called excuses. You know, it's it's it's it's amazing how well, we want to justify a lack of effort, or we want to justify our procrastination. All we want to justify not doing something we said we were going to do. We want to justify just not getting started. We can come up with some pretty pretty impressive excuses. But you know the thing about an excuse, though, it serves no one except the person that's providing the excuse. The person you're giving the excuse too. It does nothing from them because their level of expectation for you was in place and the fact that you didn't come through. I mean, how can you possibly think that this person is sitting there going, wow, that's great, you didn't come through. Now you're here, okay, well I'm sorry that happened. So when will you get to it? Or you hear something like oh wow, man, I didn't know that. And when you walk a guy and when you walk away, that person goes, wow. I can't count on them. If you keep giving excuses, then after a while a person just goes, I don't believe nothing he says. And either way, man, the person that you gave the excuse too, I can promise you they don't think as much of you as they did when they first thought you were coming through. Folks, if you could learn to eliminate excuses, you know, taught me not to have excuses. My father follows a strong man man. His dude was powerful. To me. It's the greatest dude to have a new But he taught me about excuses. He says, son, don't ever give me an excuse, because what that ain't gonna do me no good. He said, we ain't got nothing. At least you could give me your word. He said, we ain't got nothing else. We ain't got too much more than a part to piss in. But if you're gonna give me your word and tell me you're gonna do something, don't give me no excuse instead, because now we ain't got nothing, y'all. If you could eliminate excuses, if you could stop the allowing yourself off the hook, because that's all it is. The only person you're hurting with these excuses is you. I'll give you an example of how you hurt other people with your excuse. Sister, If you have a child and you keep promising your child that you're gonna do so, if you're a dad, then you don't live with your child. Your boy or your girl. You tell them you're gonna come by. That child is at the window and at the doorway, and they got their little bag pack, they got their lunch packs. I'm going with my dad and man on, man on man. The disappointment that had that child had when you and then you call in against what you say. I had to work, sorry man, but I had to work. Well, I got you head to work for Guess what that does nothing for that child that was waiting on their dad. I got you got to work. But what they got to do that don't stop the disappointment in the child. See excuses, man, they go a long wait many they do far more damage than you can imagine. So after a while, if you keep doing that to that child, and you keep promising your child you're gonna do something, you never do it. Ah, think about that, man, what that does to that child. If you're in a relationship and you keep promising the person you're in a relationship with it you're gonna do something for him, and you never do it. How long you think this relationship gonna lad? You gotta do what you say you're gonna do. You can't create excuses. But then the person who really gets damaged is you, Because when that child grows up and he can now stand on his own, and he can take his own self somewhere, and he can buy his own clothes, and now you want to come around and hey, that's my son. And then he's old enough to ask you questions. Yeah, I'm your sonbol Where were you when I needed you? Man? Where were you when I was standing in the window. Where were you when I was sitting on the porch, man, with my lunch box, just looking at every card that went by, hoping that my daddy would finally come through to my mama finally tend me coming there off the porch. You see, man, Now you got to deal with that and all the excuses you was giving that boy or that little girl back then. It don't mean damn thing to them, you know, man, And it stops you so much. See, once you become a person that provides excuses, it ain't just to your children, it ain't just to your love one, your lover. It's to your job, it's to your career. And pretty soon you start giving excuses to yourself because it's a pattern of behavior. And you got to break that pattern of behavior because it's a no win situation for you. Stop making excuses. Man, Why don't you just simply do what you say you're gonna do. It's much easier to do that. If you say you're gonna do it, be a man of your word, a woman of your word, and go do it. Period. Now, if you're not gonna do it, say that. Be a man of your word on that. See, that's what I do. When somebody asked me to do something, I distinctly tell him, Amen, I'm not gonna do that. I'm sorry, but I won't be there that way. Ain't no hope of you're looking for me? Well, he said he wasn't coming, but I'm gonna see if he come them anywhere? No, no, no, if I tell you I'm not coming.
