[00:01:02] Kendrick’s Super Bowl Shots: Drake’s Year from Hell 🎤🔥

[00:01:02] Bruce Anthony: Wow, so I'm going to start off and we'll get into more conversation on the sibling happy hour. I know my sister has a lot to talk about when it comes to the Super Bowl halftime show. I'm just going to touch bases on not exactly Kendrick Lamar, but on Drake. It's been one hell of a year. Already for Drake, not only were they playing not like us with the whole [00:01:30] crowd singing at the Grammys, but also the Super Bowl and Kendrick was taking absolute shots at Drake saying his name, looking in the camera with a big grin on his face.

[00:01:45] Bruce Anthony: And I kind of feel bad for Drake. You know, I'm not somebody who's necessarily quick witted when it comes to joking on people. I am, but not. This is what I mean by that. Certain people in certain different cultures [00:02:00] call it a different thing. Sometimes it's joking on people. Here in the D. C. area, we used to call it joning on people.

[00:02:05] Bruce Anthony: In the Richmond area, we call it cracking on people. It's basically all jokes on somebody. Right? I'm not good at coming up with jokes or somebody when everybody's just going around joking on each other. That's that, that's not my thing. I'm more of a observation type person, you know, and on day to day basis, I can make a comment here and it'll come off as funny.

[00:02:29] Bruce Anthony: And I [00:02:30] do joke on people, but it's never really super clever. It's kind of corny and I'm okay with that. That's who I am as a person. So back in the day when My friends and I used to joke on each other. I'm not somebody who takes themselves too seriously so if your joke about me is funny, even though it's kind of offensive, I'm going to laugh about it.

[00:02:55] Bruce Anthony: Because if it's funny, it's funny. And I don't take myself too seriously. But it [00:03:00] does get to a certain point. Where I've had enough and my sister loves to point it up that I pointed out that I have a certain look I don't know what that look is I don't know what that look is, but I do know that there is a point of no return with me And when I get to that point where people have joking With me, Kraken, Jhonen, whatever you want to call it and I get to that point where I don't want to deal with it anymore That's when I get personal and my boys used to always say we won't [00:03:30] joke with Bruce because he always gets super personal with his stuff And and I learned that my dad taught me that you know, when you plan the dozens hit him where it hurts Especially because neither one of us are that quick witted when it comes to joking on people Hit him where it hurts, so it just shuts everybody up.

[00:03:48] Bruce Anthony: So, these are some of the things that I've done to other people when I, you know, when we're playing the Dozens and we're joking on each other. There was one gentleman back in high school that, uh, let's just [00:04:00] say that his mother was A free spirit and everybody in the area knew about his mother being a free spirit and one day he had a role going a role going is, is, is when somebody has got just a joke at the joke at the joke at the joke on you and everybody is laughing and it gets to a point, like I said with me personally, where I'm done with the joking.

[00:04:27] Bruce Anthony: And so I looked at him point blank. And I said, that's [00:04:30] the reason why your mom's a hoe and everybody in unseen. How many dudes does she even smashed? Shut him up real quick. I mean, he couldn't beat me up, so he had to just stop the joking right then and there. But these are the type of things I'll talk about.

[00:04:42] Bruce Anthony: I'll say the stuff that nobody else will say, you know, if you smell bad. And you joking on me, I'm going to say it. If your girlfriend cheated on you or your boyfriend cheated on you, I'm going to say it. I even said something about a person's parents one time. [00:05:00] This is what I said. This, this guy was getting on me once again, he had a role going and it was starting to get a little mean spirited.

[00:05:07] Bruce Anthony: Like it wasn't funny anymore. It was starting to get a little mean spirited. So that's the reason why I said, that's the reason why your parents are getting a divorce. Obviously they don't love you anymore. Shut them the hell up. Right? So. I say all that to say this at a certain point, Drake is just going to have to just hit Kendrick like with some real stuff and everybody's got dirt.

[00:05:29] Bruce Anthony: [00:05:30] Everybody's got dirt that they don't want to get out that they're trying to hide or that everybody knows about and nobody's going to bring it up at this point. Kendrick is not letting up. Okay. He won all those Grammys and at the Superbowl, he specifically was yelling out in the crowd, yelling out. Hey, Drake, I heard you like him young like that's what he said, and he's looking at the camera as he's doing it with a slide grid.

[00:05:54] Bruce Anthony: Drake gonna have to do something. You're gonna have to do something. We got to fight at this point. I [00:06:00] believe that you got to fight. That's just that's just the way it is because he's not letting up eating one. But you know, he's not winning with humility. He is doubling down. And Drake has got everybody singing this song that's all a big joke on him.

[00:06:15] Bruce Anthony: And I feel sorry for the young man. I can call him a young man because he's younger than me. I feel sorry for the young man. I do. Because this is ridiculous. Like, let up, Kendrick. Let up. You won. You won! I shouldn't hear no more [00:06:30] things on Drake from Kendrick Lamar. You won. And, and I do, I feel incredibly bad for Drake, but he gonna come back.

[00:06:38] Bruce Anthony: He, I hope he does. I hope this isn't the end of his career. I don't think it will be, but it don't look good. To segue a little bit.

[00:06:48] Valentine’s Day & Gift-Giving Fails – Are You Doing It Wrong? 🎁💔

[00:06:48] Bruce Anthony: Talking about people joking on you that may or may not be your friends or loved ones. We're slowly rapidly approaching as this show airs. It is Valentine's day and [00:07:00] it's come to my attention.

[00:07:01] Bruce Anthony: I'm not celebrating with anybody special. I'm not a big fan of Valentine's day anyway. I believe it's a made up holiday meant to just get you to spend money. Uh, and when I say you, I mean, Men, though they're, you know, the last Valentine's day I had with a young lady, you know, she paid some stuff too. So I'm not saying this all men and not being them such as I'm just saying most of the time, man, I pan, right?

[00:07:29] Bruce Anthony: [00:07:30] So I'm not a big fan of Valentine's day, but what it got me to think about as Valentine's day was approaching was gift giving. Now, I will say. Me personally, I'm not a great gift giver and it's not because I'm thoughtless, right? It's just, I'm just not a great gift giver. I'm a good gift giver for little stuff on a consistent basis.

[00:07:55] Bruce Anthony: In other words, you know, It's nothing for [00:08:00] me to have the things that the young lady that I'm dating enjoys in my home so that when she comes over here, she feels comfortable. That's, that's always my thing in life. I want, like, if you're going to enter into my home, I want you to feel as comfortable as possible.

[00:08:19] Bruce Anthony: So if I'm dating you and I know you like certain snacks, I'm going to have my cupboard fully stocked. with those snacks. If you like special drinks, I'm going to have those drinks [00:08:30] there for you. If you spend a night, I'm going to have a special towel, special wall costs, washcloth, loofah, whatever you use.

[00:08:37] Bruce Anthony: If you use special soap or shampoo, let me know. I'm going to put it on my shopping list and have it here for you so that you feel comfortable. I'm good at stuff like that. What I'm not good at is big stuff. The last person I spent Christmas with You know, I had the hardest time trying to figure out what [00:09:00] was the big gift that I was going to get her.

[00:09:03] Bruce Anthony: And, and I did okay. But in comparison, her big gift to me completely threw me off. It was a surprise. It was a pleasant surprise. And I, I made an offhand comment. She remembered it from months prior and then got me that gift where I was genuinely surprised and touched. I'm not good at gift giving. And so as I'm thinking about this, as I'm thinking about the [00:09:30] fact that I'm not good at gift giving, that is not one of my strong suits.

[00:09:33] Bruce Anthony: It's not one of my love languages. I'm not, I don't like receiving gifts like that either. That's not my love language. I understand that at times I've been in relationships where my significant other has felt that I didn't care as much as I actually did because they thought I didn't put enough thought in the gift that I got them.

[00:09:58] Bruce Anthony: I'm more of a practical gift [00:10:00] giver. Things that you can use as opposed to things that you wouldn't normally get yourself because I don't know what you would not get yourself unless I'm with you all the time. Okay. And as I'm thinking about this, as I'm examining this, just me being in my own thoughts, I was thinking to myself, there's a lot of times where, like I said, there's a misconception of who I am or how I feel about a person.

[00:10:24] Bruce Anthony: And I had to explain to him like, yeah, I do care about you. I'm just suck at gifts, [00:10:30] but that's because I try to communicate. exceptionally well in relationships through a learned process, right? And not everybody has that form of communication in their relationships. So with this Valentine's day approaching that special, someone that has planned an evening or an event or things like that for you.

[00:10:53] Bruce Anthony: Or for the both of you take a step back and just appreciate the fact that they made an [00:11:00] effort and not focus on the end result so much because they might not be good at playing this stuff. It's not that they don't. care about you. Sometimes it can be that they don't care about you, but by and large, most of the time it's because they're just not good at that type of stuff.

[00:11:17] Bruce Anthony: And if you want certain things, and if you want certain outings, and if you want a special evening that has certain Points in the night where certain things are, you know, you're going to get flowers here or horseback. [00:11:30] I don't know. I'm thinking of all those romantic tropes from movies and things of that nature because I ain't that super romantic.

[00:11:36] Bruce Anthony: So I don't be knowing what people out there doing. That's romantic. You know, I don't do that wine and stuff. I cracked some jokes and I look cute. Try or at least I try to, Just recognize the fact that they put in the effort and that it may not be what you want, but if it's not what you want next time, tell them what you want.

[00:11:55] Bruce Anthony: And don't go on that when they should just know, no, not like people aren't mind [00:12:00] readers and people sometimes aren't super observant. And sometimes you just need to spell it out and tell them this is what I want. And if it ruins the surprise, it ruins the surprise, but at least you get what you want. Have some grace for those people that are out there.

[00:12:17] Bruce Anthony: That aren't gift, good gift givers, and just recognize that the effort that they put in to attempt to make an evening beautiful, look at that instead. Now, [00:12:30] before I end this segment of all my dilly dallying, I was once again, sitting and thought like I normally do.

[00:12:38] 🦸‍♀️ Supergirl Season 4… or a Warning for America? 🚨📺

[00:12:38] Bruce Anthony: And it came to my attention, uh, this one particular season, that there's some parallels, I'll explain.

[00:12:47] Bruce Anthony: Everybody knows that I love Superman. I watch the shows, I watch the movie, anything that has to do with Superman, I'm gonna watch. One of the characters of Superman is Supergirl. Supergirl had a television show, I [00:13:00] don't know, it ran for 8 or 9 seasons, started on CBS and then moved to the CW network. And it told the story of Supergirl, Superman's cousin that came from Krypton that was lost in space.

[00:13:11] Bruce Anthony: And when she arrived on Earth, Superman was already a full grown man, even though they both left when he was a baby. And she arrived as a teenager, and because of the time warp, and she was trapped in space and all this. I was thinking about season four. In season four, they introduce [00:13:30] Lex Luthor. Granted, he's not typically a rogues villain in the Supergirl mythos.

[00:13:38] Bruce Anthony: Hell, in one storyline, they even got married, but he was a villain in season four of Supergirl. Now, why did this pop into my head? Well, in that particular season, what he did was orchestrated. Chaos in America. [00:14:00] He there was a battle going on in this city between those that had powers like Supergirl and regular humans and regular humans.

[00:14:17] Bruce Anthony: Kind of like the far right that we see here in America now, we're basically treating some superpower beings like kind of how we're treating people from [00:14:30] Latin American countries or the Muslim religion. Right. And so Lex Luthor had manipulated the president into exposing herself as an alien. She was impeached, and then the vice president took over, but Lex Luthor had the vice president in his pocket, and Lex Luthor caused some war with another country in the [00:15:00] U.

[00:15:00] Bruce Anthony: S., and then he had a super suit that he built, and, and, and he fought against the people that were invading the country that he He was a catalyst behind the scenes initiating this other country attack in the U. S. He destroyed that army and then he came off as a hero. All while, he is making the public go against superheroes.

[00:15:24] Bruce Anthony: Because he's not a superhero, he's a human being that created technology, kind of like Iron Man, [00:15:30] to fight off and defend the world. The country. And as I'm reminiscing about Lex Luthor and this plot in Supergirl 4, I couldn't help but understand and connect the parallels of what's going on here in this country right now.

[00:15:51] Bruce Anthony: Follow me, okay? We have a billionaire. Super billionaire that's been labeled a [00:16:00] genius and we'll get into that in the next segment that's been labeled a genius that's sitting right next to the president that they often call in Elon Musk, the actual president manipulating and whispering in the air, even having a hand in the government.

[00:16:20] Bruce Anthony: Lowering our national defense by allowing other foreign entities to be able to bribe [00:16:30] people in prominent positions here in America. What is this orchestrating? What is this doing? What is this creating? Chaos. In this country. And it's only been three, four weeks, right? It's only been three, four weeks, so I couldn't help but notice that there are there are these parallels, except it's not superhuman beings, right?

[00:16:54] Bruce Anthony: It's migrants. It's people of the Muslim [00:17:00] faith. It's people of the LGBTQ plus community, right? That they've created a push against. To say that they're not American and it's not American for them to be here. I don't know. Like we don't have a super girl to save us. Super girl wins. And then Lex Luthor loses, you know, I mean, this is absolutely true, but we don't have a Superman to save us.

[00:17:25] Bruce Anthony: Our super girl is Superman. It's our responsibility to do these things. [00:17:30] And so as I was sitting and thought I was thinking this situation is way crazier than what I thought it was being in it because in that moment as I'm remembering Supergirl season four, I've taken myself out of the current predicament and just looking at the current predicament of the United States of America, and just looking at it from an outside lens and thinking, yo, this is crazy as hell.

[00:17:55] Bruce Anthony: It's so crazy. It's scripted on a television show. That [00:18:00] aired seven years ago. It was crazy then, it's even crazier now. It's going to be even crazier when I tell you exactly what Elon Musk is doing. And I'm going to get into that next. 

[00:18:22] Elon Musk’s Dangerous Game: Attacking the Government 🚀💥

[00:18:22] Bruce Anthony: So, I don't know if some of y'all watched, but just the other day, there was a press conference in the Oval Office, and [00:18:30] Elon Musk and his little son was there, and he answered some questions to the press. Precedent and, but not unprecedented because Kanye West did the same thing in the Oval Office. All of a sudden now, anybody that wants access to the president can now have access to the president and then answer questions from the press in the Oval Office, but that's neither here nor there.

[00:18:51] Bruce Anthony: And he talked about a lodge, a lot of what his doge organization is doing, and I'm going to get into that specifically, but as he's [00:19:00] talking. I'm thinking to myself, as I'm listening to what he's saying this, I'm thinking to myself, this is a genius. No, Musk sounds like a freaking idiot. So Elon Musk criticism of the government documents storage facility in Pennsylvania is really what I'm talking about here.

[00:19:18] Bruce Anthony: And that was really the purpose of me bringing this up in this segment. Now, What is going on here? So Elon Musk is talking about the government [00:19:30] document storage facility in Pennsylvania. It's a limestone mine where federal federal retirement paperwork is manually process his rationale or his things that he said about this centers on the absolute Absurd.

[00:19:46] Bruce Anthony: He says that it was absurd and efficient and framed it as a relic of the past. He claims the process is bottlenecked by a slow, unreliable mind elevator, sarcastically dubbing it a time [00:20:00] warp and arguing that practically anything else would be better. However, must critique overlooks the facility's deliberate design.

[00:20:07] Bruce Anthony: The underground site operated by Iron Mountain since the 1960s prioritized unparalleled physical security, disaster resistance, and control access for sensitive records. While he is correct about the manual paper based system, which processes is [00:20:30] about. 10, 000 applications monthly, his focus on the elevator as a limiting factor is factually disputed by employees asserting there is no elevator and delays stem from a case by case complexity.

[00:20:45] Bruce Anthony: Okay. Not infrastructure, which is what he was alluding to. He's saying, this is literally what he said. That the elevator runs so slow that that's the reason why it takes a long time for people to get retired in the [00:21:00] federal government. Okay, so let's tackle some of these things. Yes. Anybody that works with federal government, there is a ton of paperwork to retire.

[00:21:13] Bruce Anthony: So many benefits, so many other things that need to be figured out. And if you're somebody that's gone to different levels throughout the government, had different jobs, some of these, uh, Retirement situations could be quite complex. So it takes a [00:21:30] while. You know what else takes a while to get a government job that takes the whole process for working for and exiting the government is a long process.

[00:21:42] Bruce Anthony: I know people that have been looking for security clearances that go six, seven, eight months, sometimes a year. And when you want the people working for the government to really want to work for the government. And to wait their time to work [00:22:00] for, and then exit the government. It shouldn't be an easy process where you could just walk in and walk out of the government, kind of like how Elon Musk has so the facility structure reflects a trade off between security and modernization.

[00:22:15] Bruce Anthony: This is a nuance to a nuance to Musk, but he's just simply ignores it and he pushes for privatization and efficiency driven reforms. He's oversimplifying. And misses the point of the entire [00:22:30] system. The system is outdated but intentionally insulated from cyber threats and a priority in an era of digital vulnerabilities.

[00:22:38] Bruce Anthony: So I was talking to a friend of mine and he was like, yeah, I don't know why everything isn't automated. Because of cyber attacks. You're dealing with government employees. And all of their information. Yes, it is in a basically a secure bunker that can survive a nuclear attack because you're gonna need some paperwork.

[00:22:59] Bruce Anthony: Hey, [00:23:00] you know what happens in every, you know, dystopia type music movie or book or anything like that? You know what typically shuts down first that shuts down the world? Technology. Anytime they, they want to, like, get rid of the banking system and get rid of money. They're talking about attacking computers and wiping out an entire system.

[00:23:26] Bruce Anthony: That's what they're talking about. You have to have paper. Look, [00:23:30] I've got all these shows. All of them. All the audio and video files stored on my computer. Right? I've got them stored in cloud based systems. I've got them stored in multiple locations. So just in case something happens and everything gets wiped out, I'll still have backups.

[00:23:49] Bruce Anthony: I would love to still have videotapes and audiotapes. I would love to have a hardcore copy. And not just a digital copy so that I know that it [00:24:00] will last and be taken care of and and I have transcripts the transcripts. I mean, I could reread the transcripts to rerecord the episodes, but the transcripts, you know, I don't really want to do that either.

[00:24:12] Bruce Anthony: But that's essentially what they're talking about when they're talking about paperwork. So the friend was like, I don't know why everything is automated because, you know, Cyber attacks, bro. Cyber attacks. So I'm going to go through some of Elon Musk's absurd critiques from the facility and why they don't make any sense [00:24:30] and why he's not the genius that everybody thinks he is.

[00:24:32] Bruce Anthony: So let's go with the time warp rhetoric. Musk frames the limestone mine. Which has been operational since 1955 as an antiquated relic, mimicking its reliance on paper files, manila envelopes, and manual labor. And he uses the elevator as a scapegoat. He blames the facility's inefficiency on a slow, breakdown prone mine elevator, calling it a [00:25:00] limiting factor in federal requirements.

[00:25:03] Bruce Anthony: Okay, so, once again. The reason why you use your papers and manila envelopes and things of that nature, this is the reason why it's in this bunker, is because if something ever happens, if we were ever hit by a nuclear attack, hey, we have these documents. These documents are in safekeeping. Sometimes, you have to go old school to maintain something for the longevity.[00:25:30]

[00:25:30] Bruce Anthony: Kind of makes sense to me and then to blame it on a slow moving elevator, which by the way, does not exist. I cannot point that out enough. Does not exist stated by the employees that work there. Okay. This is not just me saying it doesn't exist. This is stated and has been documented by the employees that work there.

[00:25:49] Bruce Anthony: They're like, this isn't true. And then to try to blame it on the slow process of a retirement system on a slow moving elevator. When he said that, I was like, this guy is not, okay. [00:26:00] Bright, or he thinks you're not bright and you'll fall for anything. So the facility structure has a purpose. Security over speed.

[00:26:14] Bruce Anthony: It's located 220 feet underground in a former limestone mine offering natural disaster resistance. It also has state of the art surveillance 24 [00:26:30] 7 monitor and control access to protect sensitive data. It's been used since the 1960s to secure document storage. OPM moved retirement processes there in the 1970s.

[00:26:45] Bruce Anthony: It's designed for physical security long before digital threats dominated. So you know what that means? What that means is, is that that can't be hacked. And [00:27:00] why would we want to make sure that these documents don't get hacked? They're government employees personal information. I know, I'll get into Elon Musk not giving a damn about people's personal information later.

[00:27:15] Bruce Anthony: But it's employees, federal employees personal information. It's kind of important, but more importantly, like I said, he missed the mark on his critique by a lot of different things. First factual errors. And like I said, [00:27:30] employees already disputed the existence of an elevator undermining his bottleneck claim.

[00:27:34] Bruce Anthony: The delays stem from case specific complexities, not infrastructure. Okay. He had misplaced priorities, must dismiss the security trade offs. The facility's design intentionally sacrifices speeds for installation from once again, cyber attacks and hacks. Manual processing while slow avoids risks of digitalized sensitive sensitive [00:28:00] data.

[00:28:01] Bruce Anthony: Let's not forget the OPM had a 2015 cyber attack, which exposed 21 million records. That was 2015. Okay, so what are we, what are we talking about here? Here's, here's a big takeaway. Mossi is wrong because he reduces a complex security versus efficiency dilemma to a punch line about elevators and paper.[00:28:30]

[00:28:30] Bruce Anthony: He's ignoring the facility's role in mitigating risk that his own tech driven solutions could accelerate. So, when was the last time Twitter got hacked? Because people get hacked on Twitter all the time. All the time, okay? All the time. So what is his doge really doing? Because the reason why he was there is because [00:29:00] he's been getting in all different types of systems, government systems, to try and clean up the government.

[00:29:08] Bruce Anthony: And one of the ways that he wants to clean up the government is by changing the retirement system because, you know, they want to get rid of federal workers and they just did this buyout. Okay. And it, it, it sounded shady to me from the jump. So for those people who don't understand what the buyout is.

[00:29:27] Bruce Anthony: Trump came into [00:29:30] office with a playbook to reduce the federal government. How he's going to do that is by basically eliminating jobs and departments and things of that nature. On a macro level, yes, the government can be wasteful. And I know living in this area for over 25 years, there's some redundancy in the government.

[00:29:53] Bruce Anthony: That's kind of what happens when something's been living and thriving for a long time. You keep adding on pieces. And [00:30:00] it becomes too massive. And let me give you a prime example. I've got this simulator wrestling game where I own a professional wrestling company and I go against other wrestling companies, right?

[00:30:12] Bruce Anthony: And other, and every wrestling company has their own staff, whether it's wrestlers, referees, announcers, managers, and everything else in an effort to be the best company. Anytime a contract is ending with another company. Of a, of a [00:30:30] wrestler staff member, what have you that I'm interested in. I will overbid to make sure that I get them because I'm thinking to myself, not only will they help my company, but they'll losing them for the other company will hurt the other company, but it gets to a point after a certain amount of time that I have so many, so much staff.

[00:30:53] Bruce Anthony: That I don't even know what to do with it. And some people are just wasting away on the sidelines, not being used, still paying them. [00:31:00] I'm still paying them, right? They are still part of my income and well, not really income. There's still part of my debt. I'm still paying them. But I'm not really having them do anything.

[00:31:13] Bruce Anthony: That's kind of the government, like certain people don't retire. There's no hiring freezes. You got to, the government grows longer, larger. There's more departments.

[00:31:25] Shadow Government: The Rise of Unchecked Power 🕵️‍♂️🔍

[00:31:25] Bruce Anthony: You got to hire more people. It can be. Become bloated. So on a [00:31:30] macro level, yes, I kind of understand it. Here's the problem though. The current administration is specifically targeting people that they think are against them.

[00:31:41] Bruce Anthony: That's what dictators do. So Musk is part of this dode thing that is, that is specifically used to eliminate programs or control. Spending claims to this program claims to target government waste and inefficiency and fraud. [00:32:00] But here's the thing, it's criteria for defining these terms remain undefined and more importantly, unregulated.

[00:32:07] Bruce Anthony: Doge operates without meaningful oversight, raising alarms about its sensitive Are a secretive access to sensitive personal data, things like finances, the health records of people, not just federal employees, ladies and gentlemen, people, because they had access to the social security systems that affects everybody in the country.

[00:32:27] Bruce Anthony: Okay, and they're using [00:32:30] AI to analyze federal databases. Okay, so despite its stated mission to increase transparency, doge itself lacks accountability, his actions are shielded from public scrutiny until after implementation with no mechanism to challenge his judgment, but what constitutes waste. Critics, including the ACL and Congress warned that DOJ unchecked operations risk enabling political motivated misuse of [00:33:00] data and eroding privacy rights, all while failing to substantially address systemic inefficiencies.

[00:33:07] Politics, Power & Hidden Agendas: Who’s Really in Control? 🕵🏽‍♂️💰

[00:33:07] Bruce Anthony: So here's the problem. This organization on surface Trying to cut spending and get rid of boat. Sounds great on a macro level on a micro level. There is no oversight. There's no clear direction of what waste or fraud is. They're just yelling out this contract is fraud. Why is it fraud? [00:33:30] It's not given a clear example of what the guidelines are, what the standards are of judging these departments.

[00:33:39] Bruce Anthony: They're arbitrarily deciding in their mind what they're going to do with departments and programs that they deem as fraud. And nobody's looking into it. They're technically not a real government program and they have no real oversight. Certain [00:34:00] members of Congress are calling for oversight because legally they're not allowed to fire anybody, but they are getting rid of systems.

[00:34:09] Bruce Anthony: They are defunding systems and people are absolutely leaving, losing jobs. So they have a vague mandate. Purpose is framed for reducing wasteful spending and excessive regulations, but once again, gives no concrete definitions or metrics for these terms. There's no public [00:34:30] criteria existing to evaluate how DOJ identifies or prioritize its targets, leaving its actions open to political bias.

[00:34:39] Bruce Anthony: We already know it's political bias. We know that by the stances of which they're saying they're against the president, therefore we're going to get rid of them. These are, these aren't my opinions. These are facts. These are statements made by the current administration. Okay. No oversight, no accountability.

[00:34:59] Bruce Anthony: [00:35:00] People are suing because they're essentially breaking the law because they're eliminating jobs, and they have no right to actually do it.

[00:35:11] Elon Musk: Billionaire Puppet Master or Modern Lex Luthor? 🤖🃏

[00:35:11] Bruce Anthony: So, when I gave the analogy of Lex Luthor in the last segment, and I said how he is manipulating the system, How Lex Luthor manipulated America and the government to do his bidding.

[00:35:23] Bruce Anthony: And ultimately Lex Luthor in the series, I forgot to say, he just wanted to kill Superman. That's, that's all he [00:35:30] wanted. I don't know what Elon Musk's ultimate goal is. Is to become the richest man in the world. He's already got that. Does he have control in the government? He's already got that. His, his son, basically, his little, his little son, little badass kid, he was, look, little kid was bad, okay?

[00:35:46] Bruce Anthony: Had no discipline at all. He wasn't controlling him. Basically telling Trump, you're not the real president. That's that was picked up on a hot mic. Okay. You have this guy who is given a [00:36:00] press conference answering questions from the press selective press, mind you, because AP was not allowed in the Oval Office because simply that they wouldn't change their, their, their, the name to Gulf of America, Gulf of Mexico.

[00:36:16] Bruce Anthony: That's what it is. Okay, but the administration says, no, we're going to change it to Gulf of America. And you got some idiots out there who are praising that and missing the big point, right? You think this America first is about [00:36:30] you. It's not about you. You think Elon Musk, this ultra billionaire is going to save money for you.

[00:36:35] Bruce Anthony: It's not about you. It's about them. They don't care about you. They never cared about you. They care about them and they are manipulating the systems that are programs that are helping you, that are helping you to benefit them. And you fall in for the okey doke and they're using government systems [00:37:00] as political weaponization.

[00:37:03] Bruce Anthony: They're specifically targeting people that they think are against the president. It's already been documented. That the person that's being, you know, that needs to be confirmed by the Senate for the FBI, it's already been documented that he wants to go in and fire all those people that were in the investigations for Trump.[00:37:30]

[00:37:30] Bruce Anthony: They're wiping out anything. That is against them. So as we take a step back and I give you that information, close your eyes. What does that look like to you? When a person that has power over a country eliminates, gets rid of, kicks out any political opposition or anybody that stands up to them, what is that?

[00:37:59] Bruce Anthony: Keep your eyes [00:38:00] closed. Just think about it. I can tell you what is not. It's not democracy. It's a dictatorship. That's what it actually is. And that's what we're slowly but surely moving towards because it's already been documented by the people that are in the orbit of this administration that they're doing a blitzkrieg.

[00:38:23] Bruce Anthony: The reason why things seem so crazy is on purpose. They're purposely throwing [00:38:30] turmoil into the system. And I was talking to somebody earlier and they were like, yeah, don't want turmoil into the system. That's a good thing. And I was like, you don't understand the system is America. They're throwing turmoil in America.

[00:38:45] Bruce Anthony: They're specifically disrupting America. And they're doing it because they know that people can only fight for so long. So even though they're doing things illegally, [00:39:00] and that there are lawsuits to combat this, eventually people will give up. And when people give up, they can do whatever they want, because they know they've beaten a fight out of people.

[00:39:15] Bruce Anthony: Not just, you know, Mentally and emotionally, but also financially, because it costs money to file lawsuits to fight the government. So, Doge's lack of transparency, undefined goals, and absence of any [00:39:30] type of oversight is creating a perfect storm for abuse. By operating in secrecy and refusing to clarify what it deems wasteful, Doge undermines democratic accountability while posing significant risks to privacy, and, more importantly, Civil liberties.

[00:39:50] Bruce Anthony: I'm gonna repeat that again. They are posing a significant risk to civil liberties. [00:40:00] Until it's mandated and is rigorously defined and subjected to independent review, DOJ functions as a shadowy tool of the executive overreach, not a solution. To government inefficiency. That's basically what it is. And that's, that's a little bit of opinion.

[00:40:25] Bruce Anthony: That's a whole lot of fact. And [00:40:30] I had a conversation with somebody one time and I remember them saying to me, you know, just cause they did that one court ruling doesn't mean that they're going to overturn Roe v. Wade. And they did. And the same person said to me, you know, they've been trying to take social security away for a long time and it's never happened.

[00:40:54] Bruce Anthony: And they're trying. See, nothing happens until it happens. Okay. [00:41:00] Nothing happens until it happens. But history, if you look at history, history will tell you. So I was dating this girl one time and she, treated her friends and her family, uh, With distance. It didn't take much for them to rub her the wrong way and for her to kind of turn on them and turn cold.

[00:41:28] Bruce Anthony: And I was dating her [00:41:30] and, and I saw this, I saw her do all these things to other people. But the ego of me believed, well, that's them. That's not me. It won't happen to me until it did. The ego of Americans is to believe, well, we'll never become a dictatorship or an authoritarian power that happens to other countries.

[00:41:55] Bruce Anthony: It didn't happen to us until it will. We're [00:42:00] not that old as a country, about 250 years old. That's not that old in, in countries terms, it's not that old countries that have lasted longer. Absolutely. We've been taken over by dictators and authoritative figures. Wake up. Y'all need to wake up. Too many people are being passive and thinking that it's not a big deal.

[00:42:29] Bruce Anthony: And they're thinking [00:42:30] that, and they're acting that way because they're not affected. They're not affected. They're not affected. Yet. 

[00:42:44] Bruce Anthony: Okay.

[00:42:45] 🔞 OnlyFans Scandal: The Internet Runs Wild with Misinformation 😱📲

[00:42:45] Bruce Anthony: So talking to another friend of mine and they brought up something to me and they said, Hey, did you hear about that? Only fans, British girl that had sex with a thousand men. I was like, no, I [00:43:00] actually, maybe I heard something about it, but I don't, I don't, I don't know too much about it. Why? What's up?

[00:43:06] Bruce Anthony: Yeah. Guy came on and said that he gave her AIDS. I said, okay, now this person routinely tell gives me information, about a story that they've read or heard somewhere. And I always give them this look of, man, is that really true? And they always say, Google it, I swear. And then I always Google it. [00:43:30] And the story is never truly what he said.

[00:43:33] Bruce Anthony: Never truly what it was, or the stories is absolutely false. So as he's telling me this, I was like, okay, I did hear something about this. Let me just do a little bit of research because I got AIDS. Okay. Let me do a little bit of research. So I did do a little bit of research and the person in question, the adult content creator, her name is Bonnie blue.

[00:43:58] Bruce Anthony: She began as a webcam model [00:44:00] in, in 2023 and transitioned into OnlyFans. She's known for content with young male students and married men claimed to have sex with 158 students during her freshman week in September of 2024. She claimed to have the world record of having sex with 157 men in 12 hours in January, 2025.

[00:44:23] Bruce Anthony: The footage has been removed from the OnlyFans. Now, the, the brief research that [00:44:30] I did, the reason that the footage has been removed from OnlyFans is because she admitted that the first person that she had sex with, she didn't use protection. And then after everybody else that she did, it's also a dispute if it was actually 1, 000, 1, 057 men.

[00:44:51] Bruce Anthony: So with that information, you would say to yourself, well, I mean, she did have unprotected sex with one person. So you should probably [00:45:00] did get a guy AIDS. And I want you to just think about this, think about it. Logically, the incident happened in January, 2025, from my knowledge of growing up during the HIV era, that It takes about three months for it to even show up in your system, sometime even longer, like a year before it actually shows up in the test.

[00:45:28] Bruce Anthony: This happened last [00:45:30] month. Pretty sure it wouldn't show up in the test that fast. Second, and more importantly, there's a difference between HIV and AIDS. AIDS is after HIV. You must first have HIV, and it takes a little while before it turns into AIDS, and nowadays, if you take proper medicine and things of that nature and eat right, it never turns into AIDS.

[00:45:59] Bruce Anthony: Or rarely. [00:46:00] I'm not going to say never. Rarely turns into AIDS. But not a lot of people are dying from AIDS. Not nearly in the 90s, right? Like, it's nowhere close. Okay, so just just by stepping out, I can already disprove his case. Okay, and this is another example of people not doing research on the Internet properly.[00:46:30]

[00:46:30] Bruce Anthony: Okay, you get one little clip of a person saying that they were there. They participated, and now they have AIDS, and you run with it. Social media and the internet has become one giant game of telephone. Ladies and gentlemen, y'all might be too old to play tele know what telephone is, but there was a game back in the day that was called telephone.

[00:46:55] Bruce Anthony: You would you could either use, like, little speakers, or you could whisper in somebody's ear, and you [00:47:00] would stand in a line, and you would whisper a phrase or a story or something like that in a person's ear. And the first person and the last person would try to see if their stories matched up and almost always it never matches up.

[00:47:13] Bruce Anthony: Never. And that's what the internet and social media is. This person took a clip because I had to scour the internet. I scoured, I went through every database that there is. [00:47:30] Social media, Google, Bing, every search engine that there is to try and find out if There's anything out there that remotely resembles the story that he gave me.

[00:47:42] Bruce Anthony: And there was one clip that had been shared multiple times and the clip had been commented on by multiple people of this one person who claims that they was there. No, no proof that they were there. No proof that they are who they say they are. [00:48:00] And said that they gave, this young lady gave her STD. Game of Mass TD and this person is coming to me and the person that's coming to me knows Knows I'm a researcher and knows that I'm constantly coming back at him with it.

[00:48:16] Bruce Anthony: That's not true That's not exactly right like the person never has the facts right never and they watch and listen to the show And yeah, I'm talking about you. I told you I was gonna use the content I told you I told you when you said it to me as I'm gonna talk about it on the show [00:48:30] I'm going to, because you know what I'm saying right here is the same exact thing that I'm saying to your face.

[00:48:35] Bruce Anthony: Once again, you did not do proper research. Once again, you are wrong, because there is not a story or anything else to back up the claim. She is not even saying that she has HIV. What she has said is she's not worried about getting HIV because she's making so much money. And that's the problem with these young kids, because she's a young kid.

[00:48:59] Bruce Anthony: And I've already talked [00:49:00] about this before, how this younger generation is not tripping off HIV, where the older generations, Millennials and Gen X are scared to death, scared to death of HIV and AIDS. And I guess, I mean, it's not that big of a deal anymore. I mean, they even got medications that you could take to be preventative, right?

[00:49:19] Bruce Anthony: And, and that's another thing. If they got medications that you could take to be preventative, just sell it in the grocery store so everybody could take. You know, you, I want to be able to access this [00:49:30] drug like I can access Advil or Tylenol. You know what? That's what I want. I can buy a condom. You depending on what state you live, you can get Plan B pills.

[00:49:40] Bruce Anthony: Give me that no HIV pill. Let me get that pill. Matter of fact, let me get that, let that be the first pill that I get, please and thank you. And if you can come up with a, uh, a no herpes pill or just a no STD pill, you know, but specifically those STDs that are not curable, because technically there is no [00:50:00] technical cure for HIV.

[00:50:02] Bruce Anthony: There is these cocktails of medications that can make HIV diluted to the point where it doesn't come up in, in, uh, your bloodstream anymore. That's not a technical, that's not technically a cure, so I'm not really messing with that, I ain't feeling that, and as last I checked, they still ain't found no cure for herpes, they got a cure for just about everything else but herpes, so, [00:50:30] you know, I mean, come out with some cures for that, put that in pill form, put that at the target, so that next time, you know, I get some condoms, I can go ahead And get the, the no STD pill.

[00:50:40] Bruce Anthony: But the story is not solely about this person bringing this story to me. That's a, that's another issue that, that I've talked about on this show, numerous times of people not doing proper research and getting [00:51:00] faulty information. And it literally took me. 35, 40 minutes to get the real story. I mean, that's all it takes, ladies and gentlemen.

[00:51:09] Bruce Anthony: If you really want to get to the bottom of something, just take the 30, 35, 40 minutes to do a little bit of research. But I want to talk about the larger issue. The largest, he wanted to believe the story. That's the reason why he took it and ran with it, because in his mind, [00:51:30] he, the gentleman that said he got the STD, all those other guys and her deserve it, whether he wants to admit it to himself or not.

[00:51:39] Bruce Anthony: That's what he wants to, you know, That's what he's ultimately subconsciously is feeling. He wanted the story to be true because he wanted them to pay for what he probably deems whether he admits it to himself as at the very least uncouth.

[00:51:56] Could You Date an OnlyFans Model? Dating in the Digital Age 💑📸

[00:51:56] Bruce Anthony: And I want to focus on a conversation [00:52:00] that I've had with several people about Could I Date Only fans.

[00:52:04] Bruce Anthony: And I've remained steadfast, even in my conservative nature of getting older and what I deem is appropriate and inappropriate relationships. You'll never see me in a poly relationship. If I'm in a poly relationship, it's not a relationship. I don't care about the person, whether it's me being protective, controlling, whatever.

[00:52:25] Bruce Anthony: If I'm in love with somebody, I don't want to share them. That's [00:52:30] just not my get down for those people that are like that. Cool. I'm not knocking you. Don't knock me for feeling the way that I do on this. Valentine's day. I'd rather just be in a monogamous type of relationship. I mean, I mean, they're in a monogamous monogamous relationship or no relationship at all.

[00:52:47] Bruce Anthony: I'm not doing this open stuff. Not going to do it. People get hurt. They think they can participate in it and then they find out to catch the feelings and get the feelings hurt. Okay. So. I'm not knocking anybody that [00:53:00] wants to do that. I'm just saying that's not my thing. And I'm looking at this from a conservative mind stand of, you know, people are a lot of people out there doing poly.

[00:53:10] Bruce Anthony: A lot of people open with their sexuality. I still trip at my. community pool or at my building's pool where women are out there and thongs. And I'm like, it's kids around. Now, if there's no kids around, I could care less, but there's kids around. And then I'm thinking to myself, kids see that on TV all day long.

[00:53:27] Bruce Anthony: They're not tripping, right? Like [00:53:30] it's not the same as it was for me where I didn't see a woman in the thong on television until after 11 PM. And that was USA up all night. We either run to share or give a God and that was, I'm older times are changing. I have to look at Even in my conservative mind, I could date an OnlyFans model if she didn't engage with what Bonnie did.

[00:53:59] Bruce Anthony: Like, I [00:54:00] mean, so, like, could I date a former porn star? Yes, it'd be a big pill for my pride and ego to swallow, but a former, yes, not an active. Not an active. Could I date an OnlyFans model that just takes pictures and stuff like that? Yeah, I don't care. Look, I am secure in myself to realize that if I'm dating a woman, she's going to be looked at by men.

[00:54:27] Bruce Anthony: And if she's getting that money for it too, [00:54:30] as long as it's just looking, what difference does it make to me? I'm not that overprotective or territorial, whereas like, they gotta be mine. But a lot of men are. And whether this person that brought this up to me realizes it or not, They view women as a possession to have, not a partner to live and grow with.

[00:54:52] Bruce Anthony: And so I'm looking at Bonnie, and yeah, she's reckless. She's got a lot of controversial stuff. She is reckless. And I've interviewed [00:55:00] OnlyFam models, and I know that a lot of them are safe. That they handle their business, they about their bread, and they enjoy free sexuality. And I don't think there's anything wrong with that.

[00:55:12] Bruce Anthony: But people like Bonnie are giving all those people that are making adult content a bad name. And people like Bonnie are giving this person who gave me this story, who was terribly, terribly wrong, but subconsciously wanted the story to be true because he's judging them for what they do. [00:55:30] The ammunition to judge.

[00:55:32] Bruce Anthony: Everybody in this group, because people don't judge people individually. They judge people as a group. So you gotta be careful what you do out there, because even though it is just you, people are still looking at you as a group. If you do something as a woman, they're looking at you as women. If you do something as a man, they're looking at you as men.

[00:55:56] Bruce Anthony: If they do something, if a person that's Black does something, they look at [00:56:00] people that are Black, Spanish, part of the LGBTQ plus community, all of that. They lump you together because it's easier for people to think about that, as opposed to thinking about this is an individual, and this is not part of the collective, but bodies make it easy for these people to judge.

[00:56:20] Bruce Anthony: And I'm not knocking body. I mean, Bonnie put a little bit of she put a little. Put a little sauce on her statement. You know, she wanted that world record and they said, well, [00:56:30] you didn't sleep with a thousand and 57 men. And her response was, you know, it was just an evening of, uh, you know, a lot of sex and I was just tired and I'm like, that's all it was because.

[00:56:45] Bruce Anthony: Let me tell you. That's a lot. That's a lot. That's a lot of working. Okay. That's a lot of working and just saying like you were just a little tired. Whoo. I mean, whoo. Look, I don't want to come across nobody. Me personally. I'm [00:57:00] too old. You ain't gonna give me no heart attack. I mean, don't get me wrong.

[00:57:03] Bruce Anthony: That's not a bad way to go. Probably the way I would rather go if I'm not going to pass in my sleep. Let me pass in a passionate display of my passion. Okay. It's either that or sleep for me. Uh, but I mean, not, she'll kill me. I'm too old for that. Too old for that. I don't want nothing to do with it. But ladies and gentlemen, you know, celebrate your significant other or [00:57:30] significant others.

[00:57:30] 🤔 Final Thoughts: Are We Paying Attention to the Bigger Picture? 👀🔍

[00:57:30] Bruce Anthony: If you're part of the pocket poly community, you know, give them peace, you know, understand that people, you know, are doing the best that they can recognize when you're being manipulated, controlled and see through the BS. You know, like I said, I thought that young lady that I dated wasn't going to treat me like she treated everybody else, but she did.

[00:57:56] Bruce Anthony: You think that everything that Elon Musk is doing [00:58:00] doesn't pertain to you, until it does. You think that that person that, uh, got you that gift or planned that evening that wasn't that special in your eyes doesn't care about you. But they do. They're showing the best way that they can. You think that you got the story all figured out because you want that to be the story and you didn't do enough research.

[00:58:24] Bruce Anthony: You see, it's all about growth. If [00:58:30] you look in the mirror and you say, I'm a completed person, you failed because there's always work to do. You just got to take it upon yourself to do the work. And if somebody points it out, don't take it as a criticism. Take it as something you need to work on. As long as they don't keep pointing out, and keep pointing out, because then that's when they jonin on you, and then you got to hit them below the belt.

[00:58:55] Bruce Anthony: Tell them that their breasts stink, or that their wife left them. Hey, whatever you got to do to get them off their [00:59:00] back.
