When Politics Meets the Pulpit

Jeezy and Manny are holding it down this week for what might be Season 3’s most spiritually grounded episode yet. This week: Trump declared war on Pope Leo XIV, calling him "weak on crime and terrible for foreign policy," then posted an AI image of himself as Jesus Christ. The Pope, from a plane over Africa, responded: "I have no fear of the Trump administration." JD Vance warned the Pope to "be careful" about theology. The boys have thoughts. Also: Pickle of the Week goes to Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth (allegedly quoting a fake Bible verse in a speech) and FBI Director Kash Patel (reports of drinking on the job, lawsuit threats). Plus: Manny’s spotlight on OpenAI’s 13-page industrial policy blueprint, and Jeezy’s spotlight on Trump’s Ibogaine executive order, signed, allegedly, because Joe Rogan sent a text.

00:00:09.680 --> 00:00:23.089
Jeezy: Hello, world. Welcome to Part in the Politics Podcast, Season 3, Episode 16. I am your co-host, Jeezy, along with my brother and partner in politics, Manny. My brother, how are you doing on this evening?

2
00:00:23.090 --> 00:00:26.089
Manny: Man, I am doing fantastic. How are you doing?

3
00:00:26.090 --> 00:00:45.419
Jeezy: Hey, bruh, I'm doing well, man. It's best to be seen and not viewed. Not viewed, man. On this episode, we will not have our co-host, Chuck, with us, as he's dealing with some personal matters, but, at the end of the day, like we always say here at Partner Politics, never put the game on pause.

4
00:00:45.420 --> 00:00:56.120
Jeezy: But pass it on, so we're gonna continue, continue to do what we gotta do and bring you the content. So, in this episode, to our listeners, we hope this episode finds you in the best place possible.

5
00:00:56.170 --> 00:01:03.520
Jeezy: And we're here to try to make some clarity of the chaos that we're… we're dealing with, brother. I don't know how we do it.

6
00:01:04.200 --> 00:01:10.170
Manny: Not well. Lots of, lots of crying. Hey, bro. Definitely lots of laughing.

7
00:01:10.510 --> 00:01:21.759
Jeezy: A lot… that's all you can do. That's all you can do, man, in this landscape that we're living in, and we're… in this episode, we're not going to, because…

8
00:01:21.890 --> 00:01:27.569
Jeezy: It has been a weekly thing. We're gonna move past Iran in the U.S.

9
00:01:28.100 --> 00:01:45.179
Manny: We know they're still meeting, we know they're trying to get the deal together, the 60-day clock is coming due, we know there's been a, a ceasefire between Lebanon and Israel that's gonna hopefully help everything.

10
00:01:45.180 --> 00:01:46.190
Jeezy: Hopefully.

11
00:01:46.190 --> 00:01:52.020
Manny: Hopefully, but the way they… the way they keep running up to that tree, like Daffy Duck and.

12
00:01:52.020 --> 00:01:52.560
Jeezy: Yeah, bruh.

13
00:01:52.560 --> 00:01:53.230
Manny: Alex Bunny.

14
00:01:53.240 --> 00:01:54.210
Jeezy: Rabbit.

15
00:01:54.210 --> 00:01:57.899
Manny: season, duck season, straight is open, straight is closed, straight…

16
00:01:58.380 --> 00:01:59.220
Jeezy: It's crazy.

17
00:01:59.580 --> 00:02:03.509
Manny: We tired of talking about it, y'all. That's what we're just trying to say.

18
00:02:03.510 --> 00:02:12.810
Jeezy: Strait has been open and closed probably 6 or 7 times before we have even recorded this episode, so it's like, yeah,

19
00:02:12.980 --> 00:02:18.809
Jeezy: Y'all might be playing games, but we ain't. Right, right. Our time is valuable.

20
00:02:19.750 --> 00:02:22.329
Manny: Yeah, so we're not talking about all of that.

21
00:02:22.550 --> 00:02:31.689
Jeezy: We're gonna move… we're gonna move this thing back home. We're… we're coming home, so this is our homecoming episode. We're gonna… we're gonna talk about what's going on here.

22
00:02:31.900 --> 00:02:38.169
Jeezy: at home in the United States. So, the first thing that we're gonna talk about, Manny, is…

23
00:02:38.570 --> 00:02:42.669
Jeezy: When politics… Meets the pulpit, brother.

24
00:02:43.880 --> 00:02:50.740
Jeezy: Something that I feel that we have been teetering and tottering.

25
00:02:50.740 --> 00:02:51.060
Manny: Huh.

26
00:02:51.060 --> 00:02:54.320
Jeezy: on this line for quite some time.

27
00:02:54.680 --> 00:02:57.690
Jeezy: But… This is what's going on. So…

28
00:02:58.220 --> 00:03:02.199
Jeezy: Tensions are rising between Donald Trump

29
00:03:02.970 --> 00:03:05.289
Jeezy: And our boy Pope Leo, man.

30
00:03:05.410 --> 00:03:07.070
Jeezy: Well, you probably know it's cool, bruh.

31
00:03:07.690 --> 00:03:08.880
Manny: Pope Bobby.

32
00:03:09.380 --> 00:03:12.170
Jeezy: Why we gotta have problems with pole bobbing? But…

33
00:03:12.420 --> 00:03:21.349
Jeezy: Apparently, there's tension now. The Pope has been making more, direct comments about nationalism, immigration.

34
00:03:21.490 --> 00:03:26.500
Jeezy: and the moral direction of leadership. And a lot of people are reading

35
00:03:26.870 --> 00:03:31.910
Jeezy: That, and those comments that he's making is not so subtle critique.

36
00:03:32.020 --> 00:03:42.990
Jeezy: of Trump and the MAGA movement. So, with this, and with the beef, I guess, you know, I don't know if we're at the level now where we're talking about this has gotten to Kendrick and Drake.

37
00:03:44.210 --> 00:03:46.780
Jeezy: I don't know if this is, like, rap beef level.

38
00:03:46.780 --> 00:03:48.829
Manny: got the Neptunes on the…

39
00:03:48.830 --> 00:03:53.240
Jeezy: But this is definitely a Winn-Dixie, we have the Beef type of…

40
00:03:55.120 --> 00:03:56.810
Jeezy: school, bruh, if you remember Winn-Dixie.

41
00:03:57.810 --> 00:04:00.609
Jeezy: What a time, bruh. We were proper people.

42
00:04:00.610 --> 00:04:01.260
Manny: But again…

43
00:04:01.260 --> 00:04:02.880
Jeezy: Would to get quality beef.

44
00:04:03.460 --> 00:04:04.570
Jeezy: You had to go to Wendy's.

45
00:04:04.570 --> 00:04:05.670
Manny: Winn-Dixie.

46
00:04:05.670 --> 00:04:10.060
Jeezy: Bruh. But I'mma ask you this, Manny. Do you think that the Pope is…

47
00:04:10.420 --> 00:04:28.250
Jeezy: intentionally stepping into U.S. politics with some of the comments that he's been making, or is he just speaking on moral issues, and people are just… are just taking it personally? And we know that that's something that the MAGA movement and Trump will do, take things personally. But what do you think in that?

48
00:04:28.460 --> 00:04:34.580
Manny: I mean, I think the answer is yes all around. Okay. I think as… as the Pope.

49
00:04:35.460 --> 00:04:38.240
Manny: You… you kind of almost have that moral…

50
00:04:38.610 --> 00:04:52.470
Manny: you know, kind of point where you have to come out and speak about things that you are seeing that are immoral. Yeah. So I think you almost have to from that standpoint. But I think the other point that a lot of people forget…

51
00:04:52.790 --> 00:04:58.690
Manny: is that the Pope is essentially the president of Vatican City.

52
00:04:58.910 --> 00:05:17.480
Manny: And Vatican City is its own country, it's its own government entity. So, from another point, I think he is responding to this as the same way Emmanuel Macron will speak on behalf of France and whatnot. It's as a head of state also speaking on it.

53
00:05:17.480 --> 00:05:18.070
Jeezy: Yeah.

54
00:05:18.590 --> 00:05:24.700
Jeezy: you know, I think that… he's the leader of the Catholic faith, right?

55
00:05:24.700 --> 00:05:25.340
Manny: Good.

56
00:05:25.600 --> 00:05:30.200
Jeezy: And… if there is something of, of, of morality.

57
00:05:30.880 --> 00:05:35.299
Jeezy: that needs to be addressed. I don't see how the Pope

58
00:05:36.370 --> 00:05:45.719
Jeezy: is stepping, over-crossing the line. He's made some comments about immigration, the things that have happened in Gaza.

59
00:05:45.840 --> 00:05:47.490
Jeezy: Which are all…

60
00:05:48.290 --> 00:06:04.780
Jeezy: rightful things. Like, from a morality… take politics out of it, right? Take who started what, or what's go… from a moral perspective, which I have a lot of respect for Pope Leo, because everything that he's said up until this point…

61
00:06:05.000 --> 00:06:17.470
Jeezy: is not necessarily crossing into politics, but speaking on the condition of what's around him. And I feel like, as the leader of the Catholic faith.

62
00:06:18.100 --> 00:06:20.649
Jeezy: That's exactly what he should be doing.

63
00:06:21.700 --> 00:06:34.809
Manny: And from my understanding, what he's done, not only just in his time as a pope, but, you know, his time as a cardinal, and whatnot. And I think the other piece of it is, to your point, he's also American.

64
00:06:34.920 --> 00:06:35.610
Manny: Like, he…

65
00:06:35.610 --> 00:06:36.910
Jeezy: Right. You know?

66
00:06:36.910 --> 00:06:46.019
Manny: If there's any group of people you need to be speaking directly to right now, it is the American Catholics.

67
00:06:46.420 --> 00:06:47.070
Jeezy: Yes.

68
00:06:47.360 --> 00:06:48.510
Jeezy: 100%.

69
00:06:49.530 --> 00:06:50.780
Manny: And, you know…

70
00:06:52.540 --> 00:07:01.159
Manny: I don't know how serious Trump is actually taking this. And that's the part that has me, like, this is weird. Because…

71
00:07:02.450 --> 00:07:10.969
Manny: Are you really looking at him as… are you looking at him as a head of state, or as you… are you looking at him as a religious leader?

72
00:07:11.210 --> 00:07:11.770
Jeezy: Yeah.

73
00:07:12.420 --> 00:07:14.350
Manny: Because the way you're talking

74
00:07:14.560 --> 00:07:31.759
Manny: is… you're talking to him very much as a… another head of state. Now, that's not… that's not saying you should talk to another head of state like that, but that has been Trump's propensity to talk to other… you know, talk kind of wild to other heads of state.

75
00:07:31.760 --> 00:07:40.720
Jeezy: Yeah, and I think that, to that point, it's a very dangerous line, and we'll get to this later on in the segment, because they're…

76
00:07:41.730 --> 00:07:49.019
Jeezy: You know, we have a… Trump talks to a lot of people sideways. Yeah. Whether you're left, right.

77
00:07:49.130 --> 00:07:51.070
Jeezy: Foreign, domestic?

78
00:07:51.290 --> 00:08:02.870
Jeezy: But one thing that I know for sure, and I'm not Catholic, but I know one thing for sure is that you're not gonna… you're not gonna talk out the side of your neck to the Pope, right? Like, there is a…

79
00:08:02.870 --> 00:08:03.879
Manny: Pope. If the.

80
00:08:03.880 --> 00:08:19.039
Jeezy: Pope, and for the first time, and I hope I'm not wrong, but in history, it's an American Pope. And when you look at the number of followers and people that are of the Catholic faith.

81
00:08:20.170 --> 00:08:26.009
Jeezy: you're digging a very deep ditch, Trump, by doing this, because…

82
00:08:26.520 --> 00:08:30.600
Jeezy: Now, there's one thing that I… that people will stand on.

83
00:08:31.130 --> 00:08:33.660
Jeezy: And we've seen that this line has been blurred.

84
00:08:35.159 --> 00:08:37.510
Jeezy: But when it comes to the Pope.

85
00:08:37.960 --> 00:08:40.799
Jeezy: We've seen people like, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey.

86
00:08:40.809 --> 00:08:41.529
Manny: Aiden.

87
00:08:42.299 --> 00:08:44.039
Manny: Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.

88
00:08:44.039 --> 00:08:49.019
Jeezy: You're getting a little… you're getting a little close to the eye. Like, you're getting a little… you're getting a little…

89
00:08:49.020 --> 00:08:49.549
Manny: on your chip.

90
00:08:49.550 --> 00:08:55.460
Jeezy: You got way too much dip on your chip, Trump. So, you know, when it comes to this.

91
00:08:56.170 --> 00:08:59.279
Jeezy: And… maybe… hey, man, look.

92
00:09:00.270 --> 00:09:05.469
Jeezy: Maybe what we're seeing in real time is Trump's conviction.

93
00:09:06.700 --> 00:09:09.720
Jeezy: Maybe Trump is being led.

94
00:09:10.550 --> 00:09:13.340
Manny: Hey, the Lord works in mysterious ways.

95
00:09:13.340 --> 00:09:21.530
Jeezy: Lord work in mysterious ways. Maybe Trump is being led, brother, because, you know, he already say, hey, man, I don't know if I'm gonna make it to heaven.

96
00:09:22.260 --> 00:09:26.839
Jeezy: I don't know, but maybe this conviction is stern in Trump.

97
00:09:27.170 --> 00:09:28.970
Manny: And her… her dogs yelp.

98
00:09:29.140 --> 00:09:35.730
Jeezy: Hey, babe, hey, look, we all done been there where we done heard a sermon or two in church, it felt like our toes were getting stepped on.

99
00:09:35.730 --> 00:09:37.430
Manny: Maybe…

100
00:09:37.430 --> 00:09:38.959
Jeezy: Baby Trump is like, hey, look.

101
00:09:39.120 --> 00:09:43.479
Jeezy: Maybe this is conviction stirring up in them, but at any… at any rate…

102
00:09:44.230 --> 00:09:47.169
Jeezy: the Pope, I don't think he's trying to…

103
00:09:47.490 --> 00:09:56.340
Jeezy: cross a line into U.S. politics, or politics for that matter, but with the figure of who he is.

104
00:09:56.760 --> 00:09:59.409
Jeezy: He HAS to say these things.

105
00:10:00.520 --> 00:10:01.869
Jeezy: It matters that he.

106
00:10:01.870 --> 00:10:11.650
Manny: I don't even think… I don't think it's even he has to say… I think he, like, he wants to say these things, because he would like these things to stop.

107
00:10:12.440 --> 00:10:14.480
Jeezy: Yeah, yeah. I mean…

108
00:10:14.880 --> 00:10:22.539
Jeezy: facts. You know, this is something that if I see the, you know, the treatment of immigration, immigrant, excuse me.

109
00:10:23.640 --> 00:10:26.260
Jeezy: I understand that it's a political issue.

110
00:10:27.110 --> 00:10:29.000
Jeezy: But if we are all human.

111
00:10:29.800 --> 00:10:34.469
Jeezy: There is a way that we should at least morally have a foundation

112
00:10:35.060 --> 00:10:43.230
Jeezy: and a ground in which we treat each other. So am I wrong as the Pope saying, okay, yeah, they may be here illegally.

113
00:10:43.780 --> 00:10:46.640
Jeezy: But do we have to do it this way?

114
00:10:46.970 --> 00:10:53.279
Manny: Well, let's take that thought and let's expand it a little bit more, because… At the heart of it.

115
00:10:53.440 --> 00:10:57.400
Manny: Any legal standard or statute.

116
00:10:57.950 --> 00:11:00.769
Manny: If you really drive it to its core.

117
00:11:00.770 --> 00:11:01.220
Jeezy: Yeah.

118
00:11:01.220 --> 00:11:03.789
Manny: How many laws are not moral?

119
00:11:04.520 --> 00:11:07.370
Manny: How many political decisions aren't moral?

120
00:11:07.690 --> 00:11:08.860
Jeezy: That's a good point, Manny.

121
00:11:09.070 --> 00:11:12.430
Jeezy: you know, that's a good point. So, I can see…

122
00:11:12.630 --> 00:11:16.060
Jeezy: From that perspective, how some can say.

123
00:11:17.100 --> 00:11:19.220
Jeezy: the Pope is overstepping his line.

124
00:11:20.210 --> 00:11:27.380
Jeezy: Because if there are laws that we can distinguish that have no moral fiber to it.

125
00:11:28.530 --> 00:11:35.590
Jeezy: Can the leader of moral Have a say-so in what is right and what is wrong?

126
00:11:38.290 --> 00:11:38.990
Manny: Okay.

127
00:11:41.450 --> 00:11:42.339
Manny: I mean…

128
00:11:43.180 --> 00:11:50.119
Jeezy: So then what do you want the Pope to speak on? You just want him to speak at Mass on Sunday and keep his mouth shut on anything else?

129
00:11:50.120 --> 00:12:02.500
Manny: Yeah, no, I think… This was not a situation until… Until…

130
00:12:02.650 --> 00:12:06.670
Manny: you know, it got a little too hot for Trump. Like, things are going bad. Like, at this.

131
00:12:06.670 --> 00:12:08.189
Jeezy: Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.

132
00:12:08.190 --> 00:12:13.029
Manny: the man is spiraling, so I think in boxing with the Pope.

133
00:12:13.690 --> 00:12:16.599
Manny: It gives him someone different to box to…

134
00:12:16.730 --> 00:12:27.890
Manny: to box with, but again, it's like, what is your plan in winning? Like, what does… what does winning this… this thing become? Because do you expect him to back you?

135
00:12:28.240 --> 00:12:32.830
Manny: Like, I know they called up their, their ambassadors.

136
00:12:32.940 --> 00:12:43.150
Manny: to DC, and essentially told them, hey, y'all need to, go ahead and back us in this. And they're like, what are y'all talking about? No.

137
00:12:46.340 --> 00:12:53.869
Jeezy: I don't know what he seeks in this beef. And the crazy thing about this is Trump is not in it alone, right?

138
00:12:54.150 --> 00:13:01.039
Jeezy: This past week, there was an event that J.D. Vance spoke at, and he spoke about the Pope, and I want to play that clip.

139
00:13:13.420 --> 00:13:29.410
Audio shared by Jeezy: I think it's very, very important for the Pope to be careful when he talks about matters of theology. And I think that one of these issues here is that there has been… is… again, hey, random dude screaming, I told you I'd respond to your point, I just want to respond to this question first.

140
00:13:29.580 --> 00:13:30.120
Audio shared by Jeezy: Pause.

141
00:13:30.460 --> 00:13:31.850
Audio shared by Jeezy: I think one of the issues…

142
00:13:35.740 --> 00:13:40.710
Manny: Josephus, Daniels, Vance…

143
00:13:42.410 --> 00:13:43.870
Jeezy: Whatever your name is.

144
00:13:43.870 --> 00:13:44.850
Manny: Right.

145
00:13:45.660 --> 00:13:51.880
Manny: the Pope speaking out on items of theology?

146
00:13:52.350 --> 00:13:55.750
Jeezy: Bruh. Is that not… is that not his core job?

147
00:13:57.680 --> 00:14:04.470
Manny: If the Pope is not qualified to speak on theology, then who on earth is?

148
00:14:06.400 --> 00:14:06.980
Jeezy: Bruh.

149
00:14:08.240 --> 00:14:09.230
Jeezy: Wild.

150
00:14:09.850 --> 00:14:13.530
Jeezy: I'm like, like, wow. And I want to finish playing the clip, so…

151
00:14:13.530 --> 00:14:14.369
Manny: Yeah, sorry, sorry.

152
00:14:14.370 --> 00:14:22.309
Audio shared by Jeezy: here is that if you're going to opine on matters of theology, you've got to be careful, you've got to make sure it's anchored in the truth, and that's…

153
00:14:22.840 --> 00:14:25.630
Jeezy: Anchored in the truth.

154
00:14:26.110 --> 00:14:29.420
Jeezy: Sir, Mr. J.D. Vance.

155
00:14:29.560 --> 00:14:35.750
Jeezy: Are you insinuating that the Pope Is speaking on matters?

156
00:14:36.960 --> 00:14:38.840
Jeezy: Not anchored in truth.

157
00:14:39.470 --> 00:14:40.760
Manny: Arc.

158
00:14:41.170 --> 00:14:43.330
Jeezy: Are you… are you serious right now?

159
00:14:43.580 --> 00:14:44.450
Manny: Mmm…

160
00:14:45.030 --> 00:14:52.289
Jeezy: Like… when I heard that, I just… I couldn't even process.

161
00:14:52.820 --> 00:14:55.979
Jeezy: the thought process of JD Vance, because I'm like…

162
00:14:57.530 --> 00:15:02.039
Jeezy: He has… he should be careful about weighing in on theology.

163
00:15:02.830 --> 00:15:14.649
Jeezy: Which is, he has every right to do as the Pope. Right. And then you're telling me that if he's gonna do it, he better do it in truth. Isn't that what he's supposed… like…

164
00:15:15.600 --> 00:15:16.919
Jeezy: What? You shot…

165
00:15:16.920 --> 00:15:20.429
Manny: Jonathan Douglas Vance.

166
00:15:21.620 --> 00:15:26.990
Manny: Aren't you Catholic? Like, this is where I'm confused, like… Aren't you Catholic?

167
00:15:28.300 --> 00:15:30.519
Jeezy: I'm lost. I am confusion.

168
00:15:31.740 --> 00:15:37.240
Manny: Like, here's… here's my stance with the Pope. I am not Catholic.

169
00:15:37.470 --> 00:15:38.350
Jeezy: Yes.

170
00:15:38.680 --> 00:15:46.379
Manny: So… for me, when the Pope says something, I'm just kind of like, okay, you know.

171
00:15:46.380 --> 00:15:46.980
Jeezy: Yeah.

172
00:15:46.980 --> 00:15:53.490
Manny: Not that… I don't have an… would I love to meet the Pope? Yeah. But…

173
00:15:53.990 --> 00:15:57.790
Manny: I do not see him as, like, my religious leader.

174
00:15:57.790 --> 00:15:58.900
Jeezy: Yeah, yeah.

175
00:15:59.560 --> 00:16:02.740
Manny: But, James Daniel.

176
00:16:05.770 --> 00:16:07.730
Manny: Ain't this your guy?

177
00:16:08.380 --> 00:16:09.309
Jeezy: I could've sworn.

178
00:16:10.010 --> 00:16:13.300
Jeezy: I could've sworn of you, if it was the Catholic faith, I believe.

179
00:16:14.200 --> 00:16:16.730
Manny: You took out the… you took out the other guy.

180
00:16:18.650 --> 00:16:23.089
Jeezy: Bruh, JD VIN is definitely… he met the last Pope.

181
00:16:23.420 --> 00:16:25.909
Jeezy: Within 48 hours, he was gone.

182
00:16:26.100 --> 00:16:27.130
Jeezy: Don't the glory.

183
00:16:27.130 --> 00:16:32.650
Manny: Pope Francis says, I need to go speak to God about…

184
00:16:32.650 --> 00:16:33.010
Jeezy: about him.

185
00:16:33.010 --> 00:16:39.420
Manny: individual, personally. Personally. I need to personally speak with management about this.

186
00:16:39.420 --> 00:16:51.979
Jeezy: how wild it is that you gotta see… you see somebody, and bruh, you're like, hey, yeah, I can't even pray about this. I gotta go… I gotta go handle this matter in… not in person. I gotta go handle this matter in spirit.

187
00:16:52.650 --> 00:16:53.370
Jeezy: Gotta go up.

188
00:16:54.670 --> 00:16:58.699
Jeezy: handled this matter in spirit, personally.

189
00:16:58.700 --> 00:17:00.260
Manny: Cause, no.

190
00:17:02.530 --> 00:17:04.480
Jeezy: But, like, JD!

191
00:17:06.359 --> 00:17:07.119
Jeezy: Huh?

192
00:17:09.430 --> 00:17:13.560
Jeezy: That's all I can say. Like, so when you think about that.

193
00:17:14.760 --> 00:17:18.450
Jeezy: Is JD Vance right? Absolutely not, but like…

194
00:17:19.079 --> 00:17:32.419
Jeezy: Should religious leaders, especially the Pope, be weighing in on political ideology, or does that come with the territory? And I think it does if it bleeds into what we were talking about before, the morality of the issue.

195
00:17:33.440 --> 00:17:36.670
Manny: But, let's just tie that to a single issue.

196
00:17:37.150 --> 00:17:40.800
Manny: You know, legal and morality.

197
00:17:41.160 --> 00:17:41.520
Jeezy: Yeah.

198
00:17:41.520 --> 00:17:43.510
Manny: Let's look at the issue of abortion.

199
00:17:44.260 --> 00:17:44.810
Jeezy: Yeah.

200
00:17:45.150 --> 00:17:51.780
Manny: The… one of the big conservative arguments is that it's morally incorrect.

201
00:17:52.020 --> 00:17:52.880
Manny: Whoaf!

202
00:17:53.700 --> 00:17:57.909
Manny: That morals are… are driven by your faith.

203
00:17:58.660 --> 00:18:04.190
Manny: So, per… like, at what point do we want religion to be involved?

204
00:18:05.990 --> 00:18:09.750
Manny: Because we can't just take it… we can't just take it when it's convenient.

205
00:18:09.930 --> 00:18:13.940
Jeezy: Bruh, and that's the problem. Manny, you hit it right on… bruh.

206
00:18:14.310 --> 00:18:16.859
Jeezy: Right on… the nail right on the head.

207
00:18:17.880 --> 00:18:22.150
Jeezy: It can't be con… it's always when it's convenient.

208
00:18:22.150 --> 00:18:22.790
Manny: Yeah.

209
00:18:22.980 --> 00:18:25.500
Jeezy: And that's what I hate, is the con…

210
00:18:25.760 --> 00:18:28.260
Jeezy: Why is it that it's never…

211
00:18:30.290 --> 00:18:32.310
Jeezy: I… at least this is what I learned, Manny.

212
00:18:32.840 --> 00:18:34.839
Jeezy: And I can't speak about nobody else.

213
00:18:35.920 --> 00:18:39.259
Jeezy: But faith isn't… has nothing to do with convenience.

214
00:18:40.630 --> 00:18:44.050
Manny: Most times, faith isn't convenient.

215
00:18:44.050 --> 00:18:54.200
Jeezy: Faith is supposed to be uncomfortable and an inconvenience, because you live… you're trying to live morally in an immoral world.

216
00:18:55.520 --> 00:19:10.540
Jeezy: So then why do we continue to try to say that we're faithful, but we pick and choose when we want to use morals, and when it's not convenient? Oh, you gotta step aside. Because that's ultimately what the Pope is doing.

217
00:19:10.780 --> 00:19:11.500
Manny: Right.

218
00:19:11.500 --> 00:19:19.870
Jeezy: I'm not… I'm not interjecting, but the Pope is not trying to run for Congress, he's not trying to be president, he's speaking about morality.

219
00:19:21.470 --> 00:19:22.920
Manny: morality.

220
00:19:23.270 --> 00:19:27.799
Jeezy: Base scripture… scriptural morality.

221
00:19:28.130 --> 00:19:35.020
Jeezy: This is what we should be doing. I'm not saying that it's wrong… Two things can be right.

222
00:19:36.200 --> 00:19:38.029
Jeezy: But 3 things can also be wrong.

223
00:19:38.500 --> 00:19:39.070
Manny: Hmm.

224
00:19:39.840 --> 00:19:50.250
Jeezy: And what he has spoken out about… If you're… if… strip… Left or right, Republican, Democrat.

225
00:19:50.410 --> 00:19:54.000
Jeezy: And look at it from a moral perspective.

226
00:19:54.900 --> 00:20:01.129
Jeezy: Ask yourself, Is the man… Is he wrong?

227
00:20:02.030 --> 00:20:05.549
Manny: And then the other piece that I want to know in all this is…

228
00:20:05.940 --> 00:20:11.230
Manny: Which… which comment was the one that got you rolled up?

229
00:20:11.570 --> 00:20:12.200
Jeezy: Yes!

230
00:20:12.200 --> 00:20:18.700
Manny: Was it the one where he was like, God does not bless any conflict?

231
00:20:19.760 --> 00:20:21.150
Manny: Was it that one?

232
00:20:21.760 --> 00:20:22.320
Manny: Or…

233
00:20:22.320 --> 00:20:22.960
Jeezy: Right!

234
00:20:23.820 --> 00:20:33.370
Manny: He was at a vigil, and he said, enough of the idolatry of self and money, enough of the display of power, enough of war.

235
00:20:34.170 --> 00:20:35.260
Manny: Was it that one?

236
00:20:35.760 --> 00:20:37.780
Manny: I think it might have been that one.

237
00:20:37.780 --> 00:20:38.570
Jeezy: It might have been that one.

238
00:20:38.570 --> 00:20:44.969
Manny: It might have been that. Because the lash-out was also so random.

239
00:20:45.300 --> 00:20:46.200
Jeezy: Very random.

240
00:20:46.200 --> 00:20:55.689
Manny: Pope Leo is weak on crime and terrible for foreign policy. I don't want a Pope who thinks it's okay for Iran to have a nuclear weapon.

241
00:20:56.000 --> 00:20:58.390
Jeezy: But when did the Pope say that that was okay?

242
00:20:58.830 --> 00:21:00.829
Manny: When was he weak on crime?

243
00:21:00.830 --> 00:21:05.849
Jeezy: Bruh, that's what… when he said we gon'… the Pope is we gon' crime. What crime is he…

244
00:21:06.320 --> 00:21:15.440
Jeezy: I mean, if you… now, Trump, if you… if you… I keep telling you, it's the… it's the Donnie dementia dossier we're gonna get once it's all said and done.

245
00:21:16.230 --> 00:21:19.890
Jeezy: He probably think that there is so much crime at the Vatican.

246
00:21:21.190 --> 00:21:34.180
Manny: Bruh, they put on an episode, they put on angels, not angels and demons. Yeah, no, angels and demons. Yep. From Tom… he don't seen the, the, everyone get kidnapped. That's the way things happens every day.

247
00:21:34.180 --> 00:21:39.299
Jeezy: The Pope is bad on crime. What does the Pope have to do with crime, bruh?

248
00:21:39.510 --> 00:21:40.400
Manny: Like…

249
00:21:40.420 --> 00:21:46.870
Jeezy: That's how I'm like, okay, Trump, Trump, Trump is so out of touch. But… you know.

250
00:21:47.590 --> 00:21:50.330
Jeezy: First of all, you can't even speak about, I don't want a pope.

251
00:21:51.210 --> 00:21:53.210
Jeezy: We still trying to figure out what you believe in, Trump.

252
00:21:54.230 --> 00:21:55.020
Manny: Bruh.

253
00:21:55.800 --> 00:21:56.520
Manny: no.

254
00:21:56.740 --> 00:21:59.629
Manny: I still don't know where 2 Corinthians is.

255
00:21:59.630 --> 00:22:03.239
Jeezy: I have been looking for 2 Corinthians for a long time.

256
00:22:03.360 --> 00:22:04.840
Jeezy: Can't find it.

257
00:22:05.830 --> 00:22:12.819
Jeezy: We ain't never seen Trump sitting in church. The last time we seen Trump sitting in church, he was folding his communion money, his, his offering.

258
00:22:13.430 --> 00:22:31.710
Jeezy: We all know that if you grew up in church, when you start folding them dollars up, that means that you ain't giving as much as you act like you're giving. You're trying to sway the ushers to think that you done gave… gave a 20, but really, you just gave, you gave 5. Trump, we not… we not in… Trump, we never seen him in church.

259
00:22:32.330 --> 00:22:34.710
Jeezy: Except for when it's campaign season.

260
00:22:36.360 --> 00:22:48.409
Jeezy: But you got all these… you know, we got all these people that are up in arms about what he's done, and I'm like, the president is right. And I'mma tell you something, man, and I'mma move us to our next part of this.

261
00:22:50.490 --> 00:22:53.039
Jeezy: what I have enjoyed about all of this…

262
00:22:53.260 --> 00:22:57.510
Jeezy: in this beef with the Pope. First of all, it's a beef that you're not gonna win.

263
00:22:57.710 --> 00:22:58.520
Jeezy: I'mma tell you this right.

264
00:22:58.520 --> 00:23:00.980
Manny: And there's… there's zero…

265
00:23:00.980 --> 00:23:05.720
Jeezy: Now, that aspect of it is… that aspect of it is like Drake and Kendrick.

266
00:23:06.090 --> 00:23:09.339
Jeezy: They want nothing that Drake can do to win. It's just, bruh.

267
00:23:09.990 --> 00:23:11.000
Jeezy: It is what it is.

268
00:23:11.220 --> 00:23:13.350
Manny: You just take that L and go ahead and sit down.

269
00:23:13.670 --> 00:23:16.410
Jeezy: You are not going to win against the Pope.

270
00:23:18.050 --> 00:23:23.819
Jeezy: Because… The Pope is playing a game that you have never seen a day in your life.

271
00:23:24.110 --> 00:23:30.420
Jeezy: And that is… Scripture… Immorality. Something, sir.

272
00:23:30.650 --> 00:23:32.070
Jeezy: You know nothing about.

273
00:23:33.080 --> 00:23:36.909
Jeezy: You are playing checkers… first of all, no, Trump ain't even playing checkers.

274
00:23:37.630 --> 00:23:39.609
Jeezy: Trump is playing hopscotch.

275
00:23:42.130 --> 00:23:44.570
Jeezy: Pope is playing 4D chess.

276
00:23:44.570 --> 00:23:44.870
Manny: Wait.

277
00:23:45.170 --> 00:23:46.420
Jeezy: We are not the same.

278
00:23:48.010 --> 00:23:58.459
Jeezy: That's why I love that the Pope said when he's going to his trip to Africa, I will not be talking about Trump. I have much pressing… bruh, I am the Pope.

279
00:23:58.600 --> 00:24:03.489
Jeezy: This is not my job to sit here and beef with this. He beefing with me.

280
00:24:03.630 --> 00:24:08.040
Manny: I'm not beefing with… I said what I said.

281
00:24:08.040 --> 00:24:08.900
Jeezy: Ayy.

282
00:24:09.540 --> 00:24:16.580
Manny: Well, and I think this is the… this is the interesting part about this for me, is the fact that…

283
00:24:17.580 --> 00:24:19.880
Manny: Pope Leo is from Chicago.

284
00:24:20.680 --> 00:24:21.300
Jeezy: Oh, bruh.

285
00:24:23.090 --> 00:24:24.400
Jeezy: Chi-Town, Chirac.

286
00:24:24.400 --> 00:24:27.969
Manny: So he's like, I'm not worried about you.

287
00:24:27.970 --> 00:24:34.029
Jeezy: If I wanted… if I wanted to have something happen, I can call Chief Keefe, and Old Block, and look…

288
00:24:35.130 --> 00:24:44.889
Jeezy: Now, I got some hitters that I can call if you really want to get with it. But Trump, you ain't… you don't know how this get. Like, he from Chicago, but I love the temperament.

289
00:24:45.560 --> 00:24:47.020
Jeezy: of Pope Leo.

290
00:24:47.390 --> 00:24:53.550
Jeezy: And I think that once he was picked as, you know, Pope, we heard about some of this, but we're seeing it now.

291
00:24:54.470 --> 00:25:00.219
Jeezy: he stands by what he says, because he said, like, I have no fear of the Trump administration, like.

292
00:25:00.220 --> 00:25:00.810
Manny: Yep.

293
00:25:01.380 --> 00:25:03.229
Jeezy: I said what I said.

294
00:25:03.860 --> 00:25:09.610
Jeezy: what I said was based in… Faith, morality.

295
00:25:10.040 --> 00:25:14.099
Jeezy: it was not a… I'm not politically swayed

296
00:25:14.420 --> 00:25:18.880
Jeezy: I… I am a man of faith. I am the leader of the Catholic faith.

297
00:25:19.160 --> 00:25:25.779
Jeezy: And I spoke on matters that were grounded and rooted in Scripture and morality.

298
00:25:26.010 --> 00:25:30.300
Jeezy: If you don't agree with that, and which is the thing that Trump don't understand.

299
00:25:30.410 --> 00:25:34.420
Jeezy: If you're gonna push back on that, then you're not pushing back on me!

300
00:25:34.540 --> 00:25:37.120
Jeezy: You pushing back on script-trained morality.

301
00:25:37.120 --> 00:25:37.950
Manny: Mate.

302
00:25:38.210 --> 00:25:40.420
Manny: Geez, I don't remember.

303
00:25:40.950 --> 00:25:49.759
Manny: And for our Catholic listeners, again, not Catholic. So, I don't know if what I'm getting ready to talk about was on a movie.

304
00:25:50.360 --> 00:25:50.900
Jeezy: Right.

305
00:25:50.900 --> 00:25:54.499
Manny: Or a documentary. I can't say that, but here we go.

306
00:25:54.930 --> 00:26:00.169
Manny: I remember it was a statement of sorts that every…

307
00:26:00.700 --> 00:26:08.210
Manny: when the Pope dies, and they have the conclave, and everyone who goes in there, when they go in there to vote, they get sealed in there.

308
00:26:08.700 --> 00:26:16.280
Manny: And I believe the comment was, every man who enters the 16th chapel

309
00:26:16.410 --> 00:26:19.980
Manny: with intentions of being the Pope.

310
00:26:20.890 --> 00:26:24.689
Manny: end up leaving that chamber as a Cardinal.

311
00:26:26.200 --> 00:26:35.690
Manny: So, if we look at this, and we look back to Trump's earlier statement that Pope Leo wasn't on anybody's list.

312
00:26:35.930 --> 00:26:40.740
Manny: You're right, he wasn't, because he didn't enter that chamber to be somebody's pope.

313
00:26:42.250 --> 00:26:46.290
Manny: So, to have watched that process play out…

314
00:26:46.500 --> 00:26:54.939
Manny: and now see on the other side that Pope Leo became the Pope, I think it's really important

315
00:26:55.310 --> 00:27:02.590
Manny: For us to sit and kind of comprehend the whole piece about it, that… largely…

316
00:27:03.120 --> 00:27:05.589
Manny: Pope Leo ain't really wannabe Pope.

317
00:27:05.590 --> 00:27:06.170
Jeezy: Yeah.

318
00:27:06.230 --> 00:27:09.409
Manny: That decision fell upon him.

319
00:27:09.770 --> 00:27:18.629
Manny: And here we are. This isn't about power. This is about right and wrong. This is… this is… even more so, this is about Jesus.

320
00:27:18.630 --> 00:27:19.230
Jeezy: Bruh.

321
00:27:19.350 --> 00:27:25.830
Jeezy: Pope… Pope Leo… I think if you really look at who he is.

322
00:27:27.330 --> 00:27:29.590
Jeezy: and his descent to be the Pope.

323
00:27:30.710 --> 00:27:36.230
Jeezy: The two words that come to mind to me… are meek, and lowly.

324
00:27:36.790 --> 00:27:39.599
Jeezy: A man that did not seek this position.

325
00:27:40.750 --> 00:27:44.099
Jeezy: A man that really just wanted to serve within the faith.

326
00:27:46.220 --> 00:27:48.729
Jeezy: You can't ask for it better.

327
00:27:48.730 --> 00:27:49.540
Manny: Right.

328
00:27:49.540 --> 00:27:50.760
Jeezy: Pope than that.

329
00:27:51.630 --> 00:27:59.210
Jeezy: And to somehow try to make him out as… politically driven.

330
00:28:00.180 --> 00:28:06.900
Jeezy: is a message That will fail… Completely.

331
00:28:07.200 --> 00:28:11.490
Jeezy: Because… He's not known to be that way.

332
00:28:11.890 --> 00:28:12.470
Manny: Right.

333
00:28:12.470 --> 00:28:19.149
Jeezy: He's known to be… The lowest… the lowliest of the low, and the meekest of the meek.

334
00:28:19.500 --> 00:28:25.979
Jeezy: So, when he speaks upon these matters, you know that it's not a motive.

335
00:28:26.480 --> 00:28:30.790
Jeezy: Or an ulterior motive. There is nothing he seeks to gain.

336
00:28:31.170 --> 00:28:39.329
Jeezy: But to steer… the world… In those of the faith, In the right direction.

337
00:28:39.690 --> 00:28:42.539
Jeezy: Which Trump should get aboard… get on board of.

338
00:28:43.880 --> 00:28:46.570
Manny: Or at least, at minimum, he needs to understand the math.

339
00:28:47.200 --> 00:28:47.780
Jeezy: I mean…

340
00:28:47.780 --> 00:28:52.679
Manny: There are 53 million American Catholics.

341
00:28:55.910 --> 00:28:56.700
Manny: Bruh.

342
00:28:57.050 --> 00:28:58.370
Manny: 53.

343
00:28:59.710 --> 00:29:01.440
Jeezy: If you… if you piss off…

344
00:29:02.490 --> 00:29:05.170
Manny: 53 million people!

345
00:29:06.480 --> 00:29:07.120
Jeezy: Whoa.

346
00:29:07.700 --> 00:29:13.520
Jeezy: I don't think he understands that number, Manny, because I think… This past week, he started…

347
00:29:14.120 --> 00:29:15.930
Jeezy: Pissing a few people off.

348
00:29:19.210 --> 00:29:26.940
Jeezy: So… And all of his beef, you know, the beef with the Pope, And then J.D. Vance comments.

349
00:29:27.890 --> 00:29:30.730
Jeezy: They were something I… I thoroughly enjoyed this week.

350
00:29:31.680 --> 00:29:37.359
Jeezy: And I must admit, But… Trump posted an image this week.

351
00:29:39.420 --> 00:29:42.270
Manny: Yes, it's time.

352
00:29:44.210 --> 00:29:46.370
Manny: It's time.

353
00:29:47.690 --> 00:29:51.360
Jeezy: Out of all of that… out of all that happened this week, bruh…

354
00:29:52.530 --> 00:29:57.580
Jeezy: Trump does. What Trump does, bro.

Jeezy: If it ain't nothing that Trump gon' do, Trump gon' trump.

356
00:30:02.450 --> 00:30:05.980
Manny: You can set your watch to it.

357
00:30:05.980 --> 00:30:10.300
Jeezy: Bruh, you can set your… bruh, you ain't even gotta set an alarm, bruh. It's gonna happen.

358
00:30:11.030 --> 00:30:13.080
Jeezy: He posted an image, Manny.

359
00:30:14.110 --> 00:30:16.160
Jeezy: That depicted himself.

360
00:30:18.160 --> 00:30:19.860
Jeezy: As Christ.

361
00:30:21.170 --> 00:30:22.790
Jeezy: as our Lord and Savior.

362
00:30:24.550 --> 00:30:25.690
Jeezy: Jesus Christ.

363
00:30:25.800 --> 00:30:29.729
Jeezy: As if not coming off of Easter weekend, talking about praying.

364
00:30:30.010 --> 00:30:32.659
Manny: Praise Allah. Praise Allah!

365
00:30:32.920 --> 00:30:41.080
Jeezy: Now we have… Trump depicted himself as Jesus. And that's where things really…

366
00:30:41.520 --> 00:30:47.839
Jeezy: exploded. And critics are calling it disrespectful.

367
00:30:48.580 --> 00:30:57.760
Jeezy: And this is where I tuned my ear and my antennas got up, because there's a word that got thrown around that you don't hear much on mainstream these days.

368
00:30:58.780 --> 00:31:01.289
Jeezy: They said it was even blasphemous.

369
00:31:01.640 --> 00:31:02.440
Manny: Bruh…

370
00:31:02.440 --> 00:31:03.920

Jeezy: How did we get here, bro?

374
00:31:18.010 --> 00:31:28.020
Manny: Like, and not even the whole thing, just this event. Like, Trump, did you prompt ChatGPT or Canva, like, did you.

375
00:31:28.020 --> 00:31:30.310
Jeezy: Where did you get the photo from, bro?

Manny: Right.

377
00:31:31.280 --> 00:31:40.359
Jeezy: Where? I don't… I don't think Trump did it, because it wasn't just an image, like, it had some, like, graphics to it, where it moved, and…

378
00:31:41.030 --> 00:31:41.980
Jeezy: So…

Manny: And then on top of that, to come out the next day, and someone to ask you about it.

382
00:31:52.300 --> 00:31:53.359
Jeezy: Oh, hold on, brother.

00:31:54.110 --> 00:31:55.490
Jeezy: Brother, I have you.

Audio shared by Jeezy: Did you post that picture of yourself depicted as Jesus Christ? Well, it wasn't depicted. It was me. I did post it, and I thought it was me as the doctor.

385
00:32:10.450 --> 00:32:12.169
Jeezy: Now, I remember growing up in Chicago

386
00:32:13.780 --> 00:32:16.290

387
00:32:17.130 --> 00:32:22.160

388
00:32:22.730 --> 00:32:26.079
Jeezy: And it would say that he's a lawyer in the courtroom.

389
00:32:27.780 --> 00:32:29.779
Jeezy: He's a doctor in a sick room.

390
00:32:29.950 --> 00:32:30.650
Manny: Mmm.

391
00:32:32.200 --> 00:32:36.929
Jeezy: But, Trump… I don't think that you…

392
00:32:37.460 --> 00:32:42.109
Jeezy: First of all, I know you don't know that song. And I know that you didn't think that…

393
00:32:42.940 --> 00:32:47.950
Jeezy: Hold on, brother, you know what? This is not even fair. Let me finish letting him explain himself.

394
00:32:47.950 --> 00:32:48.450
Manny: Okay.

395
00:32:48.450 --> 00:32:51.900

397
00:32:56.040 --> 00:33:03.680

00:33:05.080 --> 00:33:05.680

402
00:33:11.930 --> 00:33:13.550

403
00:33:13.550 --> 00:33:15.700
Manny: Now, now this…

404
00:33:15.700 --> 00:33:19.580

413
00:34:03.860 --> 00:34:09.800
Jeezy: MAGA, y'all gotta come to the front of the room, because why y'all let this man play y'all like this?

00:34:42.780 --> 00:34:44.480

00:35:07.470 --> 00:35:11.199
Jeezy: But hold on, hold on, let me see if he got anything else to say. Maybe he can round it up.

431
00:35:11.200 --> 00:35:12.029
Manny: Who fixes?

432
00:35:12.030 --> 00:35:13.019

434
00:35:14.880 --> 00:35:24.300

438
00:35:38.620 --> 00:35:48.520
Manny: you know, Marco Rubio being the hardest… hardest working person in, in DC. But you know who I think it also is?

439

440
00:35:56.350 --> 00:35:59.050

441
00:35:59.800 --> 00:36:02.850

442
00:36:03.520 --> 00:36:04.850
Jeezy: Allegedly.

443
00:36:05.630 --> 00:36:12.600
Jeezy: They told Trump to say… That this was a doctored photo.

444
00:36:15.380 --> 00:36:16.240
Jeezy: of him.

445
00:36:17.800 --> 00:36:21.719
Manny: Trump gets out there and says…

446
00:36:24.670 --> 00:36:26.029
Jeezy: Trump gets out there and says.

447
00:36:28.020 --> 00:36:29.659
Jeezy: It's supposed to be me as a doctor.

448
00:36:29.810 --> 00:36:30.859
Jeezy: Brad knows me.

449
00:36:32.390 --> 00:36:41.800
Jeezy: We told you to say this was a doctored photo that you were not responsible for. He said, oh yeah, I posted it, but I thought it was me as a doctor.

450
00:36:41.800 --> 00:36:43.620
Manny: You know what?

451
00:36:43.620 --> 00:36:49.120
Jeezy: the Donald Dementia Dossier. I'm telling you, bruh.

452
00:36:49.120 --> 00:36:53.780
Manny: That is the exact answer that I would expect to hear.

453
00:36:55.080 --> 00:37:01.200
Manny: From someone that has no business being within arm's distance of the nuclear codes.

454
00:37:01.620 --> 00:37:05.679
Jeezy: Bruh, how many times… and this is how I know it's true, Manny.

455
00:37:06.130 --> 00:37:14.929
Jeezy: How many times, and now listeners, I won't… this is not about any hate towards Donald Trump. All of us, let's just be real for one second.

456
00:37:15.840 --> 00:37:17.389
Jeezy: How many times?

457
00:37:17.820 --> 00:37:24.509
Jeezy: Have you told your grandparents something? And they conveyed it in the worst way possible?

458
00:37:24.510 --> 00:37:27.410
Manny: Impossible. Possible!

459
00:37:27.410 --> 00:37:30.630
Jeezy: The worst way possible.

460
00:37:30.760 --> 00:37:45.250
Jeezy: I see it all the time with my wife's family. They say, by the time it gets to the people who know what need to happen, the story done got so twisted, they done told you that so-and-so done died. No, they hadn't died. They got their hair dyed.

461
00:37:48.750 --> 00:37:51.079
Jeezy: How do we get to the point that now we talking about the person dead?

462
00:37:51.080 --> 00:37:53.490
Manny: I'm calling up the funeral home.

463
00:37:53.490 --> 00:37:55.670
Jeezy: Bro, that's how I know.

464
00:37:56.240 --> 00:37:57.610
Jeezy: 100%.

465
00:37:58.600 --> 00:38:13.419
Jeezy: the dementia dossier got to come out, bruh. Trump… and didn't admit it. They said, did you post it? He could have just said, hey, look, I don't control my social media, you know, it was a doctor photo, if it was taken wrong… bruh, the walk back that could have happened…

466
00:38:14.020 --> 00:38:19.509
Jeezy: Because you had a ton of people that were hot about that, bruh. When people started throwing out the word blasphemous.

467
00:38:20.140 --> 00:38:24.170
Manny: They only got… People were calling him the Antichrist.

468
00:38:24.170 --> 00:38:40.170
Jeezy: Bruh, I seen, bruh, I seen Antichrist floating around, blasphemous… people… people don't use them words, bruh, when they get like this, bruh. Like, first of all, a lot of people can't even spell blasphemous unless they look it up. So that's that. I know half of the folks at MAGA

469
00:38:40.750 --> 00:38:42.380
Jeezy: Ain't spelled blasphemous.

470
00:38:43.620 --> 00:38:44.470
Jeezy: So…

471
00:38:44.470 --> 00:38:47.679
Manny: Hey, look, I can't… I can't spell blasphemous either.

472
00:38:47.680 --> 00:38:49.240
Jeezy: Hey, bruh, look, off the whim…

473
00:38:49.240 --> 00:38:51.400
Manny: I'mma hit that spell check.

474
00:38:51.400 --> 00:38:56.119
Jeezy: Bruh, if that's the word I got to spell, bruh, to get to the next round of the spelling bee.

475
00:38:56.790 --> 00:38:57.660
Jeezy: I might have a good one.

476
00:38:57.660 --> 00:38:58.260
Manny: run.

477
00:38:58.480 --> 00:39:03.010
Jeezy: bruh, I might have to tag Akila in, and I'm gonna have to let her do it on the beat. But listen…

478
00:39:03.780 --> 00:39:04.560
Jeezy: Trump.

479
00:39:05.450 --> 00:39:07.309
Jeezy: Out of all this going on.

480
00:39:07.760 --> 00:39:11.170
Jeezy: And this is the thing that I believe that Chuck spoke about.

481
00:39:12.310 --> 00:39:14.390
Jeezy: That is so profound to me.

482
00:39:14.790 --> 00:39:17.850
Jeezy: There were a lot of people that were hot about this.

483
00:39:19.040 --> 00:39:22.289
Jeezy: But as many people that were teed off about this.

484
00:39:23.040 --> 00:39:25.269
Jeezy: There were just as many people supporting him.

485
00:39:26.530 --> 00:39:30.619
Jeezy: And I sat here and I said… Wait a minute now.

486
00:39:33.850 --> 00:39:36.189
Jeezy: Where's the line for people?

487
00:39:36.380 --> 00:39:37.160
Manny: Right.

488
00:39:38.290 --> 00:39:40.159
Jeezy: He already dissing the pole.

489
00:39:41.090 --> 00:39:42.469
Jeezy: He beefing with the Pope.

490
00:39:43.750 --> 00:39:50.210
Jeezy: J.D. Vance is telling you… The Pope need to be careful when he speak about theology.

491
00:39:50.910 --> 00:39:54.750
Jeezy: And make sure that he's speaking things that are grounded in truth.

492
00:39:55.520 --> 00:39:57.299
Jeezy: J.D. Vance is not the Pope.

493
00:39:59.220 --> 00:40:02.829
Jeezy: Would never… he wouldn't be coming… he wouldn't come close to being a Cardinal.

494
00:40:03.380 --> 00:40:04.060
Manny: Right.

495
00:40:04.570 --> 00:40:06.599
Jeezy: With the life that he's lived.

496
00:40:07.700 --> 00:40:11.669
Jeezy: And then you have the president depicting himself as Jesus.

497
00:40:12.580 --> 00:40:18.339
Jeezy: And you have supporters saying, I still stand by the president.

498
00:40:19.150 --> 00:40:25.699
Jeezy: When you have his spiritual leader saying to go against Donald Trump is to go against God.

499
00:40:26.510 --> 00:40:27.250
Jeezy: Huh.

500
00:40:29.100 --> 00:40:30.090
Manny: Look, man.

501
00:40:30.410 --> 00:40:33.360
Manny: We… I've said it before.

502
00:40:34.050 --> 00:40:37.070
Manny: But now, it's all just coming to fruition.

503
00:40:37.460 --> 00:40:41.569
Manny: We finally get the battle of the, Red Letter Christians.

504
00:40:41.940 --> 00:40:44.169
Manny: Versus the Red Hat Christians.

505
00:40:44.170 --> 00:40:48.410
Jeezy: Hey, bruh, it's a lot of folks that don't look… I'm convinced.

506
00:40:48.740 --> 00:40:52.559
Jeezy: That a lot of y'all, when y'all seen them red letters, y'all just skipped over it.

507
00:40:53.230 --> 00:40:57.670
Jeezy: And didn't realize that was some of the most important parts you should have been paying attention.

508
00:40:57.670 --> 00:40:59.130
Manny: He's a dude.

509
00:40:59.620 --> 00:41:04.960
Jeezy: But what makes this whole thing interesting, just to put a cap on it, Manny.

510
00:41:05.140 --> 00:41:10.109
Jeezy: Is that this isn't just about one post or one comment.

511
00:41:10.960 --> 00:41:16.979
Jeezy: This is really about who gets to define morality in society.

512
00:41:17.200 --> 00:41:20.550
Jeezy: And that is… A dangerous place to be.

513
00:41:20.760 --> 00:41:25.709
Jeezy: Because is it a religious leader? Let's say, like Donald Trump. Is he…

514
00:41:26.350 --> 00:41:29.880
Jeezy: The one who defines morality in society?

515
00:41:30.530 --> 00:41:33.710
Jeezy: Or is it a religious… figure, like the Pope.

516
00:41:34.230 --> 00:41:39.570
Jeezy: Or, if I gotta throw a third in there, Is it us ourselves?

517
00:41:41.700 --> 00:41:47.360
Jeezy: Is it us ourselves that realize is not Donald Trump.

518
00:41:48.360 --> 00:41:52.540
Jeezy: or the Pope, It's us, ourselves, as a people.

519
00:41:52.910 --> 00:41:53.550
Manny: Ray.

520
00:41:53.890 --> 00:41:57.860
Jeezy: To define what is morality.

521
00:41:58.160 --> 00:42:07.320
Jeezy: Because at the end of the day, If you rely… On others, and not truth.

522
00:42:08.490 --> 00:42:10.810
Jeezy: You'll never be able to define

523
00:42:11.150 --> 00:42:16.440
Jeezy: True morality. Because the goalposts will always Moved.

524
00:42:16.440 --> 00:42:17.140
Manny: Move.

525
00:42:18.390 --> 00:42:21.559
Manny: And then you add the political side on top of that.

526
00:42:21.930 --> 00:42:26.949
Manny: If you, as a people, have decided what your morality's going to be.

527
00:42:27.390 --> 00:42:30.199
Manny: Where's your line in the sand?

528
00:42:31.210 --> 00:42:36.310
Manny: You know, is the right to food, is the right to shelter, like…

529
00:42:36.550 --> 00:42:39.540
Manny: Then you talk about a political implementation.

530
00:42:42.370 --> 00:42:45.879
Manny: That's where it gets real interesting when we talk about government.

531
00:42:46.130 --> 00:42:46.690
Jeezy: Yep.

532
00:42:47.380 --> 00:42:54.200
Jeezy: Because, in my eyes, We have lost sight.

533
00:42:54.810 --> 00:42:57.049
Jeezy: Of the foundation of morality.

534
00:42:57.940 --> 00:43:06.540
Jeezy: I knew, as a society, we have lost… we had lost… Our foundation in morality.

535
00:43:07.590 --> 00:43:10.179
Jeezy: When we took out 100-plus kids.

536
00:43:10.770 --> 00:43:14.339
Jeezy: in that strike in Iran, and nobody batted an eye.

537
00:43:15.580 --> 00:43:19.420
Manny: It was the first thing that we did.

538
00:43:20.030 --> 00:43:24.579
Jeezy: And nobody, not even the cowards in Congress.

539
00:43:24.580 --> 00:43:25.040
Manny: Blend.

540
00:43:25.040 --> 00:43:27.430
Jeezy: Didn't even bat an eye.

541
00:43:28.410 --> 00:43:35.839
Jeezy: I knew we had lost our foundation of morality when we heard about the starvation

542
00:43:37.250 --> 00:43:46.830
Jeezy: and the amount of destruction and genocide that took place in Gaza, and we did not bat an eye.

543
00:43:47.230 --> 00:43:48.610
Jeezy: Israel stopped.

544
00:43:48.790 --> 00:43:50.200
Jeezy: Resources.

545
00:43:52.030 --> 00:43:59.930
Jeezy: And then you have our congressmen and women say, America needs to wake up and support Israel and what they're doing.

546
00:44:00.050 --> 00:44:03.650
Jeezy: We tried to help… the world tried to help people.

547
00:44:04.730 --> 00:44:06.590
Jeezy: And Israel said no.

548
00:44:07.310 --> 00:44:16.530
Jeezy: We have an issue here domestically, where we… the amount of money we have spent in a war with Iran that we should not be in.

549
00:44:16.690 --> 00:44:28.999
Jeezy: could have put Americans first and handled some of the harshest issues that we deal with when it comes to healthcare, when it comes to affordability.

550
00:44:29.280 --> 00:44:30.820
Jeezy: But we chose.

551
00:44:31.720 --> 00:44:35.070
Jeezy: The latter. Where is our foundation?

552
00:44:35.480 --> 00:44:42.219
Manny: We're burning somewhere between 1 to 2 billion dollars a day right now.

553
00:44:42.410 --> 00:44:44.480
Jeezy: Do you know what that would do?

554
00:44:45.540 --> 00:44:53.820
Jeezy: If we were… if we were so… if the morality of our people If we cared enough.

555
00:44:54.470 --> 00:45:04.399
Jeezy: if the foundation of our morality was based on truth. That's why when the Pope, again, I'm not Catholic, but I can't… I certainly cannot…

556
00:45:04.530 --> 00:45:06.949
Jeezy: Turn a blind eye to truth.

557
00:45:08.180 --> 00:45:11.069
Jeezy: We are supposed to care about our neighbors.

558
00:45:11.080 --> 00:45:11.900
Manny: Right.

559
00:45:13.140 --> 00:45:21.270
Jeezy: And when we have a society, And our leaders… political leaders

560
00:45:21.990 --> 00:45:24.780
Jeezy: Are pushing us further from that.

561
00:45:24.920 --> 00:45:31.440
Jeezy: And the spoke… the spokesperson of truth is being… hammered.

562
00:45:31.990 --> 00:45:33.360
Jeezy: and beat up.

563
00:45:33.740 --> 00:45:36.339
Jeezy: For speaking about those things.

564
00:45:36.600 --> 00:45:39.499
Jeezy: We gotta ask ourself as a people.

565
00:45:40.270 --> 00:45:45.669
Jeezy: where is the foundation of morality? Because if political figures can't set it.

566
00:45:45.840 --> 00:45:49.630
Jeezy: If the Pope isn't able to speak on it.

567
00:45:50.080 --> 00:46:01.080
Jeezy: If we as a people allow it to just go unchecked and unnoticed, or it just… we turn a blind eye to it, then what is it… who is it left up to?

568
00:46:01.080 --> 00:46:01.670
Manny: gray.

569
00:46:02.300 --> 00:46:09.009
Jeezy: And that's where I'll leave that point, because… Who is the guardian?

570
00:46:10.300 --> 00:46:19.729
Jeezy: of that morality in our society. And if the one person that you have millions look up to is being attacked for speaking about that.

571
00:46:21.910 --> 00:46:25.670
Jeezy: We, we, we live, we, we live in a dark time, brother.

572
00:46:25.670 --> 00:46:26.360
Manny: Right.

573
00:46:26.640 --> 00:46:32.810
Jeezy: And, you know, I hate this. Again, Pope Leo has done nothing but spoke truth.

574
00:46:33.380 --> 00:46:37.580
Jeezy: But when you tell the Pope he has to speak, own truth?

575
00:46:37.760 --> 00:46:42.280
Jeezy: and be founded in truth, and make sure he's speaking the right thing?

576
00:46:45.410 --> 00:46:50.420
Manny: All… when all he largely said… was, hey.

577
00:46:50.950 --> 00:46:51.570
Jeezy: Bro.

578
00:46:52.210 --> 00:46:53.849
Manny: Killing people is bad.

579
00:46:55.480 --> 00:46:56.260
Manny: Right.

580
00:46:58.830 --> 00:46:59.580
Jeezy: Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait.

581
00:47:01.630 --> 00:47:02.499
Jeezy: You're talking too much.

582
00:47:02.500 --> 00:47:03.990
Manny: Wait.

583
00:47:04.300 --> 00:47:11.010
Jeezy: Bro, we are living in a society… where the Pope is being…

584
00:47:11.700 --> 00:47:19.049
Jeezy: blasted in society as not doing his job and speaking way too much. I have never seen this in my life.

585
00:47:20.680 --> 00:47:25.200
Jeezy: I've never seen this in my life, bruh. The Pope has always said stuff, and you say?

586
00:47:25.200 --> 00:47:26.070
Manny: Okay.

587
00:47:26.400 --> 00:47:27.300
Jeezy: Yeah, he's right!

588
00:47:28.440 --> 00:47:33.630
Jeezy: We live in a society where the post says, hey, stop killing people, and everybody's saying, wait, wait, wait, wait.

589
00:47:33.630 --> 00:47:35.830
Manny: Whoa, wing, wing, whoa, whoa.

590
00:47:35.860 --> 00:47:37.409
Jeezy: You're talking too much.

591
00:47:37.410 --> 00:47:40.899
Manny: You take your… take your wild hat, and you go sit over there.

592
00:47:41.410 --> 00:47:42.080
Jeezy: Bye.

593
00:47:43.070 --> 00:47:46.669
Jeezy: What is… what time are we living in? What timeline are we in, brother?

594
00:47:46.670 --> 00:47:47.290
Manny: Bruh.

595
00:47:50.300 --> 00:47:55.309
Manny: Right. Some version of our timeline, all of this is actually probably going incredibly.

596
00:47:55.800 --> 00:47:56.370
Jeezy: Right.

597
00:47:56.810 --> 00:48:04.180
Jeezy: There is a… there is somewhere in an alternate universe that there is a utopia that has existed that every…

598
00:48:04.180 --> 00:48:27.899
Jeezy: There's universal healthcare, there's affordability, everybody is li- everybody… there are no homeless people on the street, healthcare is affordable or free, kids are getting the maximum amount of education, the economy is thriving, everyone is happy, we are living in peace and harmony, all faiths are protected and can observe in the manner in which they choose to.

599
00:48:27.900 --> 00:48:30.299
Jeezy: And we are coexisting.

600
00:48:30.300 --> 00:48:36.399
Manny: And that version of Pardon the Politics is a… is a vastly different show than what y'all are getting.

601
00:48:37.980 --> 00:48:38.770
Jeezy: It don't exist.

602
00:48:38.970 --> 00:48:40.090
Manny: They ain't nothing.

603
00:48:40.090 --> 00:48:42.769
Jeezy: There is no… there is no chaos to make clarity of.

604
00:48:44.240 --> 00:48:51.409
Jeezy: And this is… and that's the timeline that I want to be on. Doctor Strange, how can I get there?

605
00:48:53.430 --> 00:48:54.490
Manny: Oh, man.

606
00:48:54.490 --> 00:49:01.999
Jeezy: bad. But… you know, we'll continue to monitor, you know, this whole thing with the Pope.

607
00:49:02.750 --> 00:49:14.969
Jeezy: and Trump, and JD, and… I mean, you've even had some… I forgot who it was… Sean Hannity? I believe I've seen a comment where he said, like, well, I ain't Catholic no more.

608
00:49:15.910 --> 00:49:18.580
Jeezy: You, you turn, you turning down the faith because of Trump?

609
00:49:20.490 --> 00:49:26.119
Jeezy: Like… There's a senator from North Carolina, I can't remember his name, I believe his last name is Green.

610
00:49:26.790 --> 00:49:32.679
Jeezy: forgive me for not having the details, but he's like, well, I support the president and what he said, so you chose…

611
00:49:33.860 --> 00:49:35.529
Jeezy: You chose man over faith?

612
00:49:37.530 --> 00:49:41.200
Jeezy: Did we not see warnings of this in the good book, brother?

613
00:49:41.680 --> 00:49:42.240
Manny: Bruh.

614
00:49:44.140 --> 00:49:47.069
Jeezy: But alas, Here we are.

615
00:49:47.070 --> 00:49:47.990
Manny: Crazy.

616
00:49:48.680 --> 00:49:55.880
Jeezy: So yeah, man, that is our coverage, of the beef. At any rate, you know, Pope Leo, salute to you.

617
00:49:56.120 --> 00:49:57.550
Jeezy: Stand on business.

618
00:49:57.960 --> 00:49:59.750
Manny: If you ever want to come on the pod.

619
00:50:00.420 --> 00:50:01.010
Jeezy: Ay.

620
00:50:01.010 --> 00:50:01.670
Manny: Right.

621
00:50:01.670 --> 00:50:04.130
Jeezy: Or if you want, hey, if you want the boys to go to the Vatican.

622
00:50:04.130 --> 00:50:04.830
Manny: to you?

623
00:50:04.830 --> 00:50:06.990
Jeezy: Yeah, Will, yeah, yeah.

624
00:50:07.290 --> 00:50:25.619
Jeezy: We'll take a trip to the Vatican, you know, we'll talk, you know, we'll bring the machines, and we'll talk, but at any rate, you know, I think we are at a very tense time, and when you see that political figures are able to push against religious figures of what morality is in our society.

625
00:50:25.900 --> 00:50:27.260
Jeezy: It's never good.

626
00:50:27.260 --> 00:50:28.100
Manny: So…

627
00:50:28.270 --> 00:50:33.710
Jeezy: Especially when people are having to choose between my political position and my faith. Yikes.

628
00:50:33.710 --> 00:50:34.410
Manny: Yeah.

629
00:50:34.410 --> 00:50:38.410
Jeezy: Yikes. So that is our coverage of the beef between the Pope

630
00:50:38.870 --> 00:50:51.099
Jeezy: And, and, and Trump, and we will keep an eye on where this goes, because, certainly, if, if Trump thinks that he's, Dr. Donald, Medicine Jesus.

631
00:50:51.980 --> 00:50:53.600
Jeezy: I can't imagine what the Knicks…

632
00:50:53.790 --> 00:50:54.840
Manny: Oh, man.

633
00:50:54.840 --> 00:51:00.740
Jeezy: the next AI-generated photo or video will be, so…

634
00:51:00.780 --> 00:51:05.269
Manny: But yeah. And like you said before, Geez… It's only April.

635
00:51:05.500 --> 00:51:06.469
Jeezy: It's only April, bro.

636
00:51:06.470 --> 00:51:07.710
Manny: It's…

637
00:51:07.710 --> 00:51:08.330
Jeezy: Where we…

638
00:51:08.330 --> 00:51:09.250
Manny: April.

639
00:51:09.250 --> 00:51:12.980
Jeezy: We ain't got halfway through the year, bruh. We ain't got halfway through the administration.

640
00:51:14.080 --> 00:51:15.300
Jeezy: I just want people to realize that.

641
00:51:15.300 --> 00:51:16.760
Manny: It's only April.

642
00:51:16.980 --> 00:51:22.530
Jeezy: Only April, bruh. So, with that being said, we have…

643
00:51:23.060 --> 00:51:29.230
Jeezy: Come to that part of our podcast, where we are at the, pickle of the week.

644
00:51:29.230 --> 00:51:31.970
Audio shared by Jeezy: We got your pickle!

645
00:51:32.800 --> 00:51:35.759
Audio shared by Jeezy: We got your pickle!

646
00:51:36.550 --> 00:51:39.529
Audio shared by Jeezy: We got your pickle!

647
00:51:44.140 --> 00:51:44.510
Jeezy: Yeah.

648
00:51:44.510 --> 00:51:45.200
Manny: Right.

649
00:51:45.510 --> 00:51:46.209
Manny: Our pickle for.

650
00:51:46.210 --> 00:51:46.929
Jeezy: this week.

651
00:51:47.530 --> 00:51:49.560
Jeezy: I had 2 pickles this week, brother.

652
00:51:50.810 --> 00:51:53.360
Jeezy: Typically, I will have my two pickles.

653
00:51:53.670 --> 00:51:57.690
Jeezy: queued up, but I'mma do a 2-in-1 pickle this week.

654
00:51:57.980 --> 00:52:01.119
Jeezy: And, this, this, this pickle of the week…

655
00:52:03.260 --> 00:52:11.069
Jeezy: It's two individuals that we're very, very familiar with, and that is, Peak Hexif…

656
00:52:11.340 --> 00:52:15.470
Jeezy: Or peak keg sales, or peak… beer breath.

657
00:52:15.930 --> 00:52:18.659
Jeezy: And, and Cash App Patel.

658
00:52:19.110 --> 00:52:23.500
Jeezy: I'm gonna start calling them the Book of Bad Optics. That's gonna have to be their name.

659
00:52:23.870 --> 00:52:29.500
Jeezy: So, you know, this week, this week's pickle is really…

660
00:52:29.790 --> 00:52:35.410
Jeezy: About those two, and on one side of it, you have the Defense Secretary, P. Hexf, appearing.

661
00:52:35.640 --> 00:52:38.950
Jeezy: To quote, Fake.

662
00:52:39.050 --> 00:52:44.969
Jeezy: Bible, verse. And, I actually had the clip of this, and,

663
00:52:45.770 --> 00:52:49.850
Jeezy: I went in the good book, brother, and I will say this to our listeners,

664
00:52:49.960 --> 00:52:55.739
Jeezy: I went to go try to find this, and I want our listeners to know, I could not.

665
00:52:55.880 --> 00:52:57.589
Jeezy: I found the reference!

666
00:52:57.920 --> 00:53:02.449
Jeezy: But I could not find word for word, and this is what Brother… Brother Kegsef said.

667
00:53:02.450 --> 00:53:06.430
Audio shared by Jeezy: It's CSAR2517, and it reads, and pray with me, please.

668
00:53:06.620 --> 00:53:07.470
Audio shared by Jeezy: The pen…

669
00:53:07.470 --> 00:53:10.060
Jeezy: First of all, The Pray With Me Please is wild.

670
00:53:12.610 --> 00:53:13.680
Jeezy: Pray With Me is wild.

671
00:53:13.810 --> 00:53:20.060
Manny: Pray With Me… Pray With Me tells me that we are getting ready to pray something.

672
00:53:20.440 --> 00:53:22.250
Manny: Yes. That I've heard before.

673
00:53:22.250 --> 00:53:22.580
Jeezy: Yes.

674
00:53:23.470 --> 00:53:28.030
Jeezy: Okay, so we on the same page, brother, we on the same page. Okay, alright. Here we go.

675
00:53:28.030 --> 00:53:47.920
Audio shared by Jeezy: The path of the downed aviator is beset on all sides by the iniquities of the selfish and the tyranny of evil men. Blessed is he who, in the name of camaraderie and duty, shepherd the lost through the valley of darkness, for he is truly his brother's keeper, and the finder of lost children.

676
00:53:47.920 --> 00:54:05.850
Audio shared by Jeezy: And I will strike down upon thee with great vengeance and furious anger those who attempt to capture and destroy my brother. And you will know my callsign. He's saying he won, when I lay my vengeance upon… And you will know my name is the Lord!

677
00:54:06.040 --> 00:54:09.630
Audio shared by Jeezy: When I lay my vengeance upon thee.

678
00:54:10.210 --> 00:54:11.620
Jeezy: Now, if you're not familiar, brother.

679
00:54:13.020 --> 00:54:15.789
Jeezy: What you heard in the background as PKXF talk.

680
00:54:16.540 --> 00:54:20.090
Jeezy: was… A fake Bible verse.

681
00:54:21.280 --> 00:54:23.260
Jeezy: From the movie Pulp Fiction.

682
00:54:23.970 --> 00:54:29.850
Jeezy: And he did this during a Pentagon… Prayer… Service.

683
00:54:30.480 --> 00:54:38.800
Jeezy: and he presented it as it tied to Ezekiel 25 and 17 in a military mission tradition.

684
00:54:39.340 --> 00:54:52.689
Jeezy: Now, multiple outlets noted that the wording closely matched, as you heard in the clip that I played, the famous Samuel L. Jackson monologue from Quentin Tarantino's film. Not the actual…

685
00:54:53.250 --> 00:54:54.559
Jeezy: Bible Scripture.

686
00:54:55.460 --> 00:55:04.340
Jeezy: So, a man that has deemed himself as so faithful, And at a prayer, service for the Pentagon.

687
00:55:04.770 --> 00:55:07.700
Jeezy: Out of all the things you could have chose.

688
00:55:08.990 --> 00:55:11.719
Jeezy: All the scriptures out of that big ol' book.

689
00:55:13.960 --> 00:55:17.630
Jeezy: You… Got ChatGPT.

690
00:55:18.140 --> 00:55:23.310
Jeezy: to run you up a mock scripture from the movie Pulp Fiction.

691
00:55:24.080 --> 00:55:24.920
Manny: Yep.

692
00:55:26.630 --> 00:55:27.290
Jeezy: What?

693
00:55:30.930 --> 00:55:32.090
Jeezy: Bruh.

694
00:55:32.090 --> 00:55:33.130
Manny: First of all.

695
00:55:35.720 --> 00:55:38.180
Jeezy: We are so… we are so unserious as a nation.

696
00:55:39.940 --> 00:55:43.579
Manny: And I don't know when we became this unserious.

697
00:55:44.040 --> 00:55:44.830
Jeezy: I know.

698
00:55:45.340 --> 00:55:53.330
Jeezy: When Donald Trump won the second election, and he started putting people in place… Who were unqualified.

699
00:55:54.140 --> 00:56:00.870
Jeezy: who fit the description of DEI candidates that they keep complaining about, that's what happened.

700
00:56:01.260 --> 00:56:03.860
Jeezy: He is… Terrible.

701
00:56:05.260 --> 00:56:09.859
Jeezy: Terrible. Bruh, you could've… you could've just said the Lord's Prayer and got out of there, and would've…

702
00:56:10.680 --> 00:56:11.809
Jeezy: had a problem.

703
00:56:12.040 --> 00:56:14.260
Jeezy: You pull Pulp Fiction?

704
00:56:15.320 --> 00:56:16.250
Jeezy: So, Pete!

705
00:56:17.650 --> 00:56:19.299
Jeezy: You in a pickle, bro.

706
00:56:19.970 --> 00:56:23.200
Jeezy: Cuz, cuz, cuz, you gotta get your act together.

707
00:56:23.460 --> 00:56:26.369
Jeezy: But you might not be in the worst pickle as your counterpart.

708
00:56:26.370 --> 00:56:27.570
Manny: Oh, man…

709
00:56:28.280 --> 00:56:34.820
Jeezy: On the other side, the FBI directed, Cash App, because we're not gonna sit here and play games with you, we're not calling you Cash.

710
00:56:34.940 --> 00:56:42.940
Jeezy: Your name is Cash App. Cash App Patel is dealing with a fresh report from The Atlantic alleging excessive drinking.

711
00:56:43.810 --> 00:56:45.560
Jeezy: Erratic behavior…

712
00:56:46.250 --> 00:56:54.199
Jeezy: In unexplained absences based on interviews where more than two dozen current and former officials have made this complaint.

713
00:56:55.430 --> 00:56:57.060
Jeezy: No, Cash App.

714
00:56:57.670 --> 00:57:02.660
Jeezy: Has strongly denied the allegation, and says he plans to take legal action.

715
00:57:03.740 --> 00:57:04.610
Jeezy: But, bruh.

716
00:57:05.190 --> 00:57:11.309
Jeezy: If you are the head of the FBI, I'm not… we all adults.

717
00:57:12.620 --> 00:57:15.589
Jeezy: Not saying that there's nothing wrong with you having a drink.

718
00:57:17.070 --> 00:57:23.919
Jeezy: But if you have excessive drinking, and I'm talking about… they're talking about to the point where he is not available.

719
00:57:24.350 --> 00:57:25.160
Jeezy: He's acting.

720
00:57:25.160 --> 00:57:26.670
Manny: Battering rams…

721
00:57:26.670 --> 00:57:33.080
Jeezy: Bruh, yes. Like, yeah, they had to batter around, like, to break into a room to get them because they couldn't have access to them.

722
00:57:33.480 --> 00:57:36.579
Jeezy: Bruh, you are the FBI director.

723
00:57:37.600 --> 00:57:40.790
Jeezy: have… Have some class.

724
00:57:43.330 --> 00:57:48.339
Jeezy: have some class. But the reason why both of you are pickles is because…

725
00:57:48.780 --> 00:57:50.510
Jeezy: This is the kind of week.

726
00:57:51.620 --> 00:57:54.689
Jeezy: And really, this is just the kind of…

727
00:57:54.700 --> 00:58:13.839
Jeezy: This is the period of time that we're in where America's national security leadership looks less than steady hands on the wheel and more like a youth pastor who confessed scripture with Quentin Tarantino and an FBI director who's fighting over a hangover rumor with a lawsuit threat. Like, bruh.

728
00:58:14.840 --> 00:58:16.070
Jeezy: Whaaat?

729
00:58:16.180 --> 00:58:22.940
Jeezy: You are… a part of America's national security leadership.

730
00:58:25.060 --> 00:58:41.280
Jeezy: And you look this… and these are reports… we never heard reports like this when we were a proper people, when politics was so boring, that you knew your FBI director was probably the most blandest of blandest. Went home, did his job.

731
00:58:41.280 --> 00:58:48.769
Jeezy: He may have a glass of wine and a cigar here and there, but for the most part, if the FBI director got called at 4 in the morning.

732
00:58:48.870 --> 00:58:50.280
Jeezy: You knew that he'd respond.

733
00:58:50.280 --> 00:58:51.250
Manny: Right.

734
00:58:51.480 --> 00:59:00.950
Jeezy: Not this one. You know that the Secretary, or the Department of Defense, or War, or whatever you want to call it.

735
00:59:01.690 --> 00:59:05.969
Jeezy: Is quoting and doing and using things that

736
00:59:06.510 --> 00:59:10.659
Jeezy: We have not seen any stability, and we're at a very…

737
00:59:11.020 --> 00:59:14.200
Jeezy: Critical point within our, in our, in our country.

738
00:59:14.430 --> 00:59:19.379
Jeezy: We're in very… we're in a very tight time right now, bruh.

739
00:59:19.380 --> 00:59:21.599
Manny: Everything is so fragile.

740
00:59:21.600 --> 00:59:25.610
Jeezy: bruh, thank you, that's the word I'm looking for. So fresh now. So fresh.

741
00:59:25.800 --> 00:59:32.629
Jeezy: And you have… these two… Having these things happen to them this week.

742
00:59:33.180 --> 00:59:38.969
Jeezy: So… This week's Pickle of the Week goes to Peak Hagstaff and Cash App, Patel.

743
00:59:39.090 --> 00:59:43.659
Jeezy: Because if your job is to make the country feel secure, right?

744
00:59:44.030 --> 00:59:50.690
Jeezy: Maybe don't spend the week making people ask whether America is being run by…

745
00:59:50.910 --> 00:59:58.250
Jeezy: someone who is a fan favorite of Pope Fiction, or a guy who allegedly ghosts his job.

746
00:59:58.380 --> 01:00:02.719
Jeezy: Cause he's drunk and wants to threaten everybody with a lawsuit in his hand.

747
01:00:03.080 --> 01:00:11.560
Jeezy: That doesn't make us feel comfortable. And it certainly makes us look as a joke. Trump loves to talk about how we look so strong, so strong, well.

748
01:00:11.790 --> 01:00:16.990
Jeezy: The leadership of our, of our national security, Looks very weak.

749
01:00:17.220 --> 01:00:19.270
Jeezy: And for that, you're a pickle.

750
01:00:22.670 --> 01:00:23.340
Manny: Hmm.

751
01:00:28.520 --> 01:00:29.520
Jeezy: I mean, hey…

752
01:00:30.000 --> 01:00:30.500
Jeezy: Say, bro.

753
01:00:30.500 --> 01:00:32.360
Manny: I mean, you know?

754
01:00:32.760 --> 01:00:38.079
Jeezy: when you… there used to be something that I heard all the time that would say, that if you knew better.

755
01:00:38.430 --> 01:00:39.479
Manny: You do better.

756
01:00:39.700 --> 01:00:40.789
Jeezy: just do better.

757
01:00:41.460 --> 01:00:48.470
Jeezy: And… It's a shame to see that those in the top of our leadership

758
01:00:49.380 --> 01:00:52.609
Jeezy: You'd think they'd know better. They older than both of us.

759
01:00:52.610 --> 01:00:54.040
Manny: Goodbye. Combined.

760
01:00:54.170 --> 01:00:57.330
Jeezy: Right, combined. And we know better.

761
01:00:57.570 --> 01:00:59.430
Jeezy: But they seem to not know how to do better.

762
01:00:59.550 --> 01:01:00.420
Manny: So… Right.

763
01:01:02.290 --> 01:01:17.099
Jeezy: So, to our listeners, we've reached the conclusion of our episode, and you guys know that at the end of every episode, we love to give you our spotlights of the week. So, my brother, I'm gonna ask you, what is your spotlight that you're keeping an eye on this week?

764
01:01:18.070 --> 01:01:27.160
Manny: Man, they're… they're two… well, largely one thing. We'll keep to one side of it. Okay. Openai.

765
01:01:27.310 --> 01:01:34.180
Manny: The company, the parent company behind the… sorry, behind ChatGPT.

766
01:01:34.340 --> 01:01:38.290
Manny: They just dropped a 13-page blueprint.

767
01:01:38.640 --> 01:01:44.150
Manny: Called Industrial Policy for the Intelligence Age.

768
01:01:44.380 --> 01:01:46.710
Manny: It's a giant…

769
01:01:46.830 --> 01:02:06.160
Manny: policy proposal, it proposes starting a public wealth fund, a 4-day work week, universal AI access, safety net rules that all AI companies would run under, a robot tax, basically a whole lot of, like, New Deal.

770
01:02:06.570 --> 01:02:13.789
Manny: big plan for how the world kind of just migrates into this new AI future.

771
01:02:14.020 --> 01:02:19.599
Manny: It's a very interesting kind of plan.

772
01:02:20.880 --> 01:02:29.090
Manny: And we'll see how it plays out. I would say the other part of it is you're starting to see more scrutiny.

773
01:02:29.210 --> 01:02:36.559
Manny: of these AI companies. Now, as we're starting to see companies doing layoffs in the name of AI, and.

774
01:02:36.560 --> 01:02:37.000
Jeezy: father.

775
01:02:37.000 --> 01:02:47.389
Manny: Hey, your technology is doing this, what is your… what is the plan? You know, and also a lot in that document was about shifting tax burdens from

776
01:02:47.640 --> 01:02:50.359
Manny: You know, people to corporations.

777
01:02:51.420 --> 01:03:03.880
Manny: So I think it's interesting, and we'll see how messages like this will start cropping up, and whether they start gaining heat and gaining, kind of, financial support as it, kind of plays through.

778
01:03:05.220 --> 01:03:05.910
Jeezy: Alright.

779
01:03:05.910 --> 01:03:06.729
Manny: So, yeah.

780
01:03:06.730 --> 01:03:08.769
Jeezy: Okay. Well,

781
01:03:09.570 --> 01:03:15.009
Jeezy: Mine's is, headed to the White House, and there was something that was very interesting that happened this past week.

782
01:03:17.260 --> 01:03:21.039
Jeezy: So, Donald Trump just signed an executive order

783
01:03:21.500 --> 01:03:28.410
Jeezy: Pushing for more federal research into a psychedelic drug called Ibogaine.

784
01:03:29.030 --> 01:03:33.649
Jeezy: Now, if you've never heard of Ibogaine, that's fine, that means that you're probably a regular person like this.

785
01:03:33.650 --> 01:03:37.230
Manny: Who are also unaware.

786
01:03:37.230 --> 01:03:52.840
Jeezy: It's very unaware, so don't worry, most people haven't heard of it. But it's a naturally occurring psychedelic that derives from a plant from Central Africa, and it's being studied unofficially for years as a potential treatment for

787
01:03:52.850 --> 01:03:57.720
Jeezy: Opioid addiction, PTSD, and even, traumatic brain.

788
01:03:57.820 --> 01:04:02.900
Jeezy: injury, so… The funny thing about this is that apparently Joe Rogan.

789
01:04:03.030 --> 01:04:10.230
Jeezy: sent Trump a text about this, and Trump said, basically, that, hey, this is great, you want FDA approval.

790
01:04:11.020 --> 01:04:12.089
Jeezy: First of all, Trump.

791
01:04:12.300 --> 01:04:14.380
Jeezy: NBA approval don't work that way.

792
01:04:15.250 --> 01:04:18.070
Manny: At least, or at least it shouldn't work that way.

793
01:04:18.070 --> 01:04:36.159
Jeezy: It definitely shouldn't work that way. So now this order doesn't legalize anything, it doesn't, suddenly make psychedelics widely available, but what it does is signal that the federal government wants to seriously explore, whether substances like, Ibogaine.

794
01:04:36.160 --> 01:04:41.319
Jeezy: Can have real medical value, especially for veterans and people struggling with

795
01:04:41.590 --> 01:04:59.799
Jeezy: addiction. So, this is where it gets interesting, because for years, psychedelics have been sitting in that taboo category, lumped in with illegal drugs and not serious medica- medication, but now they're being talked about, at the highest level of government. Now, I will say this.

796
01:05:00.240 --> 01:05:04.100
Jeezy: I think this is wild that you signed an executive order.

797
01:05:04.440 --> 01:05:07.820
Jeezy: For us to start researching this, but you somehow…

798
01:05:07.820 --> 01:05:10.039
Manny: Off… off of your homies' texts.

799
01:05:10.040 --> 01:05:11.310
Jeezy: Off of it takes.

800
01:05:11.460 --> 01:05:13.009
Jeezy: Off of the takes.

801
01:05:13.190 --> 01:05:18.399
Jeezy: But, at the same time, Marijuana is not legal.

802
01:05:20.280 --> 01:05:23.579
Jeezy: And we know that there has been research already done.

803
01:05:24.420 --> 01:05:26.559
Manny: Well, they're talking about de-scheduling it.

804
01:05:28.190 --> 01:05:29.410
Jeezy: de-scheduling.

805
01:05:29.410 --> 01:05:29.980
Manny: Idiot.

806
01:05:31.150 --> 01:05:38.800
Jeezy: That's an asterisk. But you were so quick to move on this from a text from Joe Rogan, but…

807
01:05:39.440 --> 01:05:49.440
Jeezy: We've seen, you know, not even just the people that have been incarcerated by it, but there has been research that has proven that there is some

808
01:05:49.480 --> 01:06:01.540
Jeezy: benefit for those, and we already have, quite a few states that, you know, legalize medical, legalize the use of medical marijuana. Jesus.

809
01:06:01.540 --> 01:06:02.070
Manny: ago.

810
01:06:02.380 --> 01:06:03.599
Jeezy: Medical weed.

811
01:06:03.690 --> 01:06:06.840
Jeezy: I don't say marijuana. But…

812
01:06:06.900 --> 01:06:26.309
Jeezy: With this, this move could open the door for FDA approval treatments using psychedelics, shift how we approach the opioid crisis, and potentially change the entire conversation around mental health treatment. I say in an interview, that Joe Rogan had with Ben Affleck, and when they were talking about it, they were saying that

813
01:06:26.320 --> 01:06:32.500
Jeezy: People that had addictions off of one dose of this, of this plant, this.

814
01:06:32.500 --> 01:06:33.809
Manny: Completely reset.

815
01:06:33.810 --> 01:06:40.589
Jeezy: like, complete reset, like, I don't even want to be on it no more. So yeah, pretty wild, but…

816
01:06:40.930 --> 01:06:47.539
Jeezy: the fact that you got an executive order signed off the strength of just texting your homeboy is pretty wild. So…

817
01:06:47.610 --> 01:06:54.469
Jeezy: if we're willing to sign an executive order for something like this, I'm interested to see something like marijuana.

818
01:06:54.480 --> 01:07:10.049
Jeezy: How that is put in the mix, because it'd be kind of crazy that you can get the push and the funding and all the things you need for something like this off the strength of having a connection with your boy, but the research that's been done for this, we can't push this through.

819
01:07:10.350 --> 01:07:11.410
Manny: Brother, thanks.

820
01:07:11.410 --> 01:07:18.090
Jeezy: Yeah. So, we'll keep an eye on what that looks like, and, where that goes. I have no interest.

821
01:07:18.240 --> 01:07:19.719
Jeezy: From a personal perspective.

822
01:07:19.720 --> 01:07:20.160
Manny: Right.

823
01:07:20.160 --> 01:07:21.740
Jeezy: No interest in none of this.

824
01:07:21.870 --> 01:07:29.659
Jeezy: Because, yeah, I'll just take my Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ, and He's a fixer of all.

825
01:07:29.790 --> 01:07:30.400
Manny: Yep.

826
01:07:31.120 --> 01:07:32.840
Manny: I'll get my ginger ale.

827
01:07:32.840 --> 01:07:35.810
Jeezy: Yep, I'm gonna drink my ginger ale, my saltine crackers.

828
01:07:35.810 --> 01:07:36.530
Manny: Lay down.

829
01:07:36.530 --> 01:07:44.339
Jeezy: And I'mma lay down. Yep, so, that's my spotlight of the week, but I mean, bruh, that's just wild to me that you, off the strength of just texting your homeboy.

830
01:07:44.470 --> 01:07:47.659
Jeezy: you can potentially get an FDA approval, or just get a.

831
01:07:47.660 --> 01:07:50.420
Manny: You said it in the meeting. I think you said it.

832
01:07:50.420 --> 01:07:56.929
Jeezy: And I will say this, just to wrap it up, Joe Rogan has admitted that he has not tried this himself, so…

833
01:07:57.400 --> 01:08:02.579
Jeezy: The fact that he's pushing something that he's never even tried himself, should tell you enough, but…

834
01:08:02.940 --> 01:08:07.930
Jeezy: We will see what happens, with that. So yeah, that's my spotlight out of the week, man, so…

835
01:08:08.840 --> 01:08:10.939
Jeezy: Anything else, brother? All hearts and minds clear?

836
01:08:11.190 --> 01:08:12.790
Manny: All hearts and minds cleared.

837
01:08:12.790 --> 01:08:19.089
Jeezy: Hey, so, to our brother Chuck, we definitely miss you this episode, but we understand, and hopefully we'll…

838
01:08:19.319 --> 01:08:24.920
Jeezy: Have you back with us, but to our listeners, again, like, share.

839
01:08:24.939 --> 01:08:39.439
Jeezy: Follow, subscribe, spread the word of Partner Politics. We see where you all are, and we appreciate the support, and not just here domestically in the U.S, but in all the countries that are tuning in to us. We are so thankful.

840
01:08:39.439 --> 01:08:49.439
Jeezy: We are honored that, for the duration of an episode, you lend us your ear to hear, us ramble on about the chaos that is going on in our world.

841
01:08:49.710 --> 01:08:59.370
Jeezy: But hey, we're in it together, and like we always say here at the podcast, that if don't nobody love you, please, please, please, please, please know that the boys here.

842
01:08:59.479 --> 01:09:01.420
Jeezy: At the pod, we love you.

843
01:09:01.420 --> 01:09:02.020
Manny: Love y'all.

844
01:09:02.029 --> 01:09:07.499
Jeezy: We love y'all, and we hope to see you at the next episode. So take care, world, and we'll see you then.

845
01:09:08.410 --> 01:09:09.130
Manny: Peace.
