Sibling Happy Hour Begins
---

Bruce Anthony: It's the Sibling Happy Hour. I'm here with my sis, J'Andrea. We're going to be talking about spiders, Byron Donalds, and an update on Corey Harris. But that's enough of this horrible intro that I've done.

Bruce Anthony: Let's get to the show.[00:01:00] 

Bruce Anthony: What up, sis? 

J. Aundrea: What up, 

Bruce Anthony: brother? I can call it, that was one of the worst intros and this was the second take and we just gonna leave it in. It is what it is. Just leave 

J. Aundrea: it in. I mean, you got like 98 percent of the words right. 

Bruce Anthony: I got 90, I don't know what's going on today. And that's an A. 98 percent is an A.

Bruce Anthony: You're absolutely right. So. I got an A. It's passing. Everybody know what we're talking about. They know to write, review, like, comment, share. They know all that stuff. Yes. Yeah. If you've been listening to us, and if you're new to the show, if you've been 

J. Aundrea: listening, 

Bruce Anthony: if you're new to the show, hey, normally I do a better intro than that, but what's going on with you?

J. Aundrea: What's going on with us? Right, 

Bruce Anthony: right. You, 

J. Aundrea: you sent out a major, major? 

Bruce Anthony: Well, I haven't announced it to everybody else. I just did it. I just put it in the, well, I put it on Instagram. Okay. Alright. Well, I wondered. I wanted to [00:02:00] announce it myself, but you know what? That's okay. 

Celebrating 10,000 Subscribers
---

Bruce Anthony: Ladies and gentlemen, we've hit 10, 000 subscribers on our YouTube page.

J. Aundrea: Insanity. Let me, let me be honest with you, ladies and gentlemen. Can I be transparent? 

Bruce Anthony: Be transparent. 

J. Aundrea: I, I thought, I thought, you know, we'd do this for a little while and then it would sort of peter out, you know, that we would lose interest. No, it wouldn't gain any traction because again, who are we? But for some reason, yeah, but, but for some reason it's resonating with people and that is the coolest thing.

J. Aundrea: And we can't wait for the next 10, 000 and we're just going to keep giving you guys. Great content and getting better and better and listening to feedback. And so thank you. 

Bruce Anthony: Yeah. You know, that's the thing we are getting better. I've listened to the shows every now and then, and we are absolutely getting.

J. Aundrea: Yeah, absolutely. [00:03:00] 

Bruce Anthony: And, and yeah, people are rocking with us. People are really, really rocking with us. We were at 1700 at the beginning of the year. So that means that we've increased subscribers on our YouTube page. By 8, 300 people within six months with it. No five months because we're in the six month. So January, February, March, April, and May five months, we did 8, 300 subscribers.

Bruce Anthony: So when you say the next 10, 000, yo, I think that we're going to hit that before the end of the year. 

J. Aundrea: I, I can't, I can't wrap my mind around that. 

Bruce Anthony: People are watching and you know, they, they, they checking us out and you know, it's kind of cool. Now I'm surprised that you thought that this was going to be a thing that we was just going to let it fade to the background, knowing who I am.

J. Aundrea: No, I mean, I knew we would. Not saying that we wouldn't put our [00:04:00] all into it, but I just thought, like, who are we? I don't know. I just don't have like a, I guess, an ego about it. Or, in fact, I'm self deprecating about it. And so, I think it's just, I think it's really amazing. I'm, I'm surprised every day when I check the page.

J. Aundrea: And, and, and see the lovely comments that you, oh! Some of them, some 

Bruce Anthony: of them, the other ones I 

J. Aundrea: respond to. So if you, you might catch me in them comments. So 

Bruce Anthony: you might catch that fate. Yeah, no, I, I, Hey, this is cool. And you know me though. I I'm really like, 

J. Aundrea: what's next? Yeah, 

Bruce Anthony: that's, that's who I am. It's like, that's, that's cool.

Bruce Anthony: All right. Well, let's be 

J. Aundrea: present. Let's be present. You're right. Practice. 

Bruce Anthony: You're right. You're right. I take after our father when it comes to this and it's just like, all right, that's, that's what we're supposed to do. Okay. What's next? So yes, this is, [00:05:00] this is really cool. And I wanted, you've already done something, but I wanted to do like a video, like, like you would film a video and I would film a video and you would send it to me.

Bruce Anthony: I would edit it. And then we put it on the social media page. We can still definitely do that. We, I mean, we've still definitely do that, but enough about us. Let's talk about something that is also amazing and terrifying. 

J. Aundrea: Yeah, horrifying. 

Spiders in Georgia: The Joro Invasion
---

Bruce Anthony: Spiders in Georgia. So you sent this to me and what are they called again?

Bruce Anthony: Juro. Juro. 

J. Aundrea: Yes. J-O-O-R-O. Juro Spiders. 

Bruce Anthony: So there was a news article written in the post. 

J. Aundrea: Yes, 

Bruce Anthony: by Aaron Blankmore, and that's the Washington 

J. Aundrea: Post, not the New York Post. 

Bruce Anthony: And we're a little late on this, ladies and gentlemen. This was published all the way back in February 25th of this year. But the de jure spiders are native to East Asia.

Bruce Anthony: They have large yellow and black [00:06:00] bodies, long legs, and an ability to spin. Orb like webs. So kind of like Spider Man, just instead of red and black, yellow and black, but they're actually not a man, it's still a spider 

J. Aundrea: anyway, and not a hero. They're horrifying. 

Bruce Anthony: Well, I don't know if they're heroes or not.

Bruce Anthony: They were first confirmed in the U S in 2014 in Northeast Georgia and have since spread across the Southeast. The spiders are likely to continue their march across the United States. Thanks to their ability to adapt to human dominated environments. Studies published by the journal. Anthropodia? 

J. Aundrea: Listen, your guess is as good as mine.

J. Aundrea: Yeah, Anthropodia 

Bruce Anthony: track their behavior in northeast Georgia. The authors argue that part of the spider's success in the United States may turn on their ability to tolerate busy roads. I don't really know what that means, but basically it is these spiders. They, they like, look, but we're not, we're [00:07:00] not ducking no cars.

Bruce Anthony: You know what I'm saying? They like, look, we, we here and we're here to stay. So they're, they're all up in your area and they are spreading. They're big, they're scary. And yeah, I'm not looking too forward to coming down there and visit you in August. 

J. Aundrea: Listen. So my juro spider was last summer. 

Bruce Anthony: Mm hmm. 

J. Aundrea: One had spun a red, a web right outside my front door.

Bruce Anthony: Oh, wait a minute. Is, are you in Northeast Georgia? No, it did say it was spreading all across. It started, 

J. Aundrea: it started there in like 2014 or 2015 and it's spread throughout the Southeast now. 

Bruce Anthony: Yeah. Yeah. Were they there? Okay. So it's a web and your front door. 

J. Aundrea: Yeah. So I took a video of this giant spider and I had to send it to my friends because I needed to know, should I move [00:08:00] or can one of y'all come help me?

J. Aundrea: And I don't have a fear of spiders. I don't 

Bruce Anthony: know. You don't, you don't. 

J. Aundrea: That sucker was big and ugly. 

Bruce Anthony: How big is it? I mean, compared to like, ladies and gentlemen, my sister sent me the article and it immediately unscended it, unscented, unscented, unscented, 

J. Aundrea: unscented, 

Bruce Anthony: unscented. Unscinted because it has a picture of the spider and I'm afraid of spiders, but I'm only afraid of certain spiders.

Bruce Anthony: I'm afraid of like triangles. I'm afraid of those big hairy spiders. So it's not like one of those, right? 

J. Aundrea: No, it's usually, I think they're usually about like an inch, inch and a half, but something like that, but the legs are long. So they're like, to me, that's a big spider. A little spider is one of them little.

J. Aundrea: Things, you know, you can easily squash it. This was about an inch [00:09:00] with legs. And I said, no, I said, no. And you know, there's y'all have heard my story so far of the wildlife that I live in the city of Atlanta. There are woods around my city. Not technically. I am in the city and that's 

Bruce Anthony: what technically means technically.

Bruce Anthony: Yes, literally, literally, and technically. Yeah. No. Yeah. Yes. Technically. Yeah, I don't 

J. Aundrea: technically, no, I, we're not going to get into this, but all 

Bruce Anthony: ladies, ladies and gentlemen, y'all are getting a small taste of what it's like with me and my sister to get together when we're like side by side and we get into these little debates and our phones, Google stays busy because we, because 

J. Aundrea: you know, I Googled it.

Bruce Anthony: Yeah, yeah. Okay. Well, okay. So you go with it. So what's the answer? 

J. Aundrea: Technically. Emphasizes that while there are, [00:10:00] there is truth to what you are saying, there are other factors that make it untrue. I am, it is not untrue. I do live in the city of Atlanta. Okay. So literally, not technically, but I'm, my house is surrounded by woods.

J. Aundrea: So there's various wildlife. 

Wildlife Encounters and Chupacabra Myths
---

J. Aundrea: I didn't even tell you about the chupacabra. 

Bruce Anthony: What is that? No, that sounds like some Star Wars. Cobra, that's Chewie's pet, ain't it? No, 

J. Aundrea: no. 

Bruce Anthony: You sure? That's 

J. Aundrea: not what that is. What's a 

Bruce Anthony: chupacabra? 

J. Aundrea: A chupacabra, it means goat sucker in Spanish. 

Bruce Anthony: Okay. And it's basically 

J. Aundrea: a, it's, it's, it's, I think it came out of Mexico, like the mythology of it.

J. Aundrea: But it basically is kind of like a vampire, but it's, it's an animal. It kind of looks like a canine. And, you know, it'll go around and kill in other animals and suck in their blood, like, you know, farm animals and stuff like that. So there's a chupacabra 

Bruce Anthony: in [00:11:00] my neighborhood. You're exaggerating. 

J. Aundrea: You would think.

Bruce Anthony: I am not. Are you, 100, is this technically or literally? 

J. Aundrea: Is it literally a chupacabra? No, obviously not. All right. That's good. Be a chupacabra that if never one existed, that would have been it. My neighbor showed me a picture of it. It is a canine creature. I don't know if it's a dog or a coyote. It has the most severe mange I've ever seen.

J. Aundrea: So it is completely hairless and it's got the scabs all over it and stuff. It's just covered in mange. It was incredibly thin, his dogs were barking, he thought maybe one of my dogs got out, so he went and looked, saw it, and just started snapping pictures of it, and it looks like a chupacabra, so that is lurking somewhere.

Bruce Anthony: Couldn't it just be a sick dog that doesn't have, a homeless dog that doesn't have, you know, that's, that sounds like. But [00:12:00] it 

J. Aundrea: looked like a chupacabra. 

Bruce Anthony: Well, okay, a hairless sick dog that's malnourished. 

J. Aundrea: Or a coyote. 

Bruce Anthony: A 

J. Aundrea: coyote. 

Bruce Anthony: I don't think a man, I don't think a coyote would be out there being malnourished.

Bruce Anthony: You got, there's plenty of stuff that it could kill. 

J. Aundrea: Maybe it's a long, hard winter. 

Bruce Anthony: Uh, okay. Maybe I'm sure somebody in the YouTube comments will absolutely tell us exactly what it is and ask us why the hell we wouldn't know what it is because you know what we city slickers we, that's what, that's the reason why we don't know about the woods and this is also.

Bruce Anthony: Another example of why this August will be the last time I'll come down there to visit you. Cause you just, whether it's the snakes, now you got the Joe, Joe, Joe Walker spiders, and you got Coober Libre soul sucking canines running your grounds. No, I love the lizards. I didn't even know there was lizards.

Bruce Anthony: What lizards? 

J. Aundrea: Lizards. Yeah. There's little lizards that [00:13:00] live around the house. I don't know. I don't know. Who do I look like? Steve Irwin? I don't know about these animals. I just know that when I see one, I go inside. 

Bruce Anthony: So you, you sprayed the house, right? Cause you said that spray this, keep snakes away. So you just sprayed the house.

Bruce Anthony: That 

J. Aundrea: is what my lawn guy said. Now I don't know. I don't know, but that's what he said. And he sprayed for the spiders too. And I hadn't seen any more of the Juro spiders at summer. But now. Summer is in full swing. I am seeing spider webs everywhere outside. There was even spider webs on my car. Cause you know, I, I don't, I don't go nowhere.

J. Aundrea: So there was spider webs on the car. 

Bruce Anthony: That is pretty bad. You got spider webs on your car. 

J. Aundrea: Pretty bad. I need 

Bruce Anthony: you to start going somewhere and go to the grocery store or something. Like get up. I don't know. I need to, I need to go to the gym every day. 

J. Aundrea: I'm working on it in therapy.[00:14:00] 

Bruce Anthony: All right. Um, so back to the Jojo JJC spiders, Alexis Schultz, co author of the study and a third year ecological student at the university of Georgia said in the news release, I don't know how happy people are going to be about it, but I think these spiders are here to stay. . So basically they adapt to this environment really well.

Bruce Anthony: Yeah. They done made a home and they ain't leaving and they here. No, and they, and there's plenty of prey for them to, to, to, to focus on. It doesn't really talk on what they prey on, but they get spiderwebs. It's probably insects. It's probably the main thing. It's not out. Yeah. They not out here eating rodents.

Bruce Anthony: It's not that type of spider. Only the super ULAs and Arachnophobia do that. 

J. Aundrea: Yeah, but they are venomous. They rarely bite humans and their venom is not deadly They're not like black widows or what's the other one a brown recluse? Which I'm sure I have [00:15:00] those two But their venom is not deadly but yeah, they they are venomous and what I What I hear is that they're shy, so they don't come around people, but I'm like, but at the same time they thrive in urban areas.

Bruce Anthony: Yeah. Come on. Don't 

J. Aundrea: sound that shy to me. It sound like they here to stay and y'all better get that spider spray. 

Bruce Anthony: And look, I don't be trusting people when they say, Oh, that's like, though I love dogs, I love dogs, but when some dogs look a little aggressive and then the parrot says. Oh, she's shy and I'm like, she don't look shy and I'm a dog person.

Bruce Anthony: You can pet her. Nah, I'm good. So when you say the spiders are shy. Yeah. Okay. All right. 

J. Aundrea: And you say that 

Bruce Anthony: they're venomous, but it's non lethal, but you know what that also means? It also means it's going to give you like a nasty rash. And I would almost rather have the venom [00:16:00] than a nasty rash. Cause you know, I'm vain.

J. Aundrea: The rash will go away. 

Bruce Anthony: Well, sometimes. 

J. Aundrea: No, you put some, put some, put some cortisone cream on it. You be all right. 

Bruce Anthony: Sometimes it's like key sweat and it make it last forever. 

J. Aundrea: No, that's not what happens. 

Bruce Anthony: So, 

J. Aundrea: yeah, that's what I'm living through down here. 

Bruce Anthony: Look, let me tell you something. Like I said, August is going to be the last time I visit.

Bruce Anthony: I got a friend that just bought a house right out near, near George Washington's house, right? It's like in that same neighborhood. It's really nice house, beautiful house, right? And she told me she was downstairs in the basement and getting some remodeling done and there was a black rat snake that was just hanging on the outside of the door of the back door of the basement and just hanging, just hanging there in between the door and the screen.

Bruce Anthony: And I was like, okay, yeah, no, that's not cool at all. And she said the same thing that you said that they got somebody out there to spray. Supposedly the spray thing is, I guess, real. Cause she said that she hasn't seen it in a month, but then said that she [00:17:00] was walking her daughter in the neighborhood and saw another one of those snakes.

Bruce Anthony: It might've been the same snake. I don't know. Maybe it's a whole family of them, but just, 

J. Aundrea: just 

Bruce Anthony: slithering across the street. And I said, yo, when you have your house woman. I'll I'll do it virtually. She's like, what'd you mean not coming to your house? Cause you got black rat snakes all around. And those things aren't small.

Bruce Anthony: Those things are like four to five feet long. 

J. Aundrea: I'm not, 

Bruce Anthony: no, no. These Jojo bean spiders, 

J. Aundrea: some steel toe boots, some galoshes or something, and just walk up there. You know, you take your boots off when you get in the house. 

Bruce Anthony: No, I need a whole body suit. That's what I need. That's I'm not messing with Talk about some boots.

Bruce Anthony: Now, I need a whole hazmat suit. 

J. Aundrea: Just take high steps. 

Bruce Anthony: Yeah, okay. 

J. Aundrea: Just lift your knees, take high steps, and you'll be alright. 

Bruce Anthony: My name is not Marcus Allen. I don't know how to take no high step. I'm not no NFL running back, okay? I'm just 

J. Aundrea: [00:18:00] Okay, good. Thank you for I was like, 

Bruce Anthony: who's Marcus 

J. Aundrea: Allen? 

Bruce Anthony: And I guarantee you, there are going to be people listening to this.

Bruce Anthony: That was born in the two thousands that watch football and don't know who Marcus Allen is. Marcus Allen was a hall of fame running back for the Oakland Raiders. He was the truth. Okay. And also they said, I look like him in my younger self. And that's what I said at my Mr. High school pageant that I was voted on as a freshman.

J. Aundrea: Now, who are you saying? What's this man? Cause now I got to see this because 

Bruce Anthony: they said I looked like him when I was younger. 

J. Aundrea: Bruce. 

Bruce Anthony: Yeah. What's up? 

J. Aundrea: That's because we grew up in the middle of nowhere. 

Bruce Anthony: Right. This is true. You don't 

J. Aundrea: look, I mean, Virginia, you don't look nothing like I'm looking at young pictures of him.

J. Aundrea: I'm looking at young pictures of him and I'm thinking of you when you were young and you're just both [00:19:00] black guys and that's, that's 

Bruce Anthony: what I said too. I was like, I don't get it. Why do y'all sound like Marcus Allen? That was too. Oh, anyway. So these Jojo Bane spiders is out here. They, they, they thriving in this environment.

Bruce Anthony: We've been gone long talking about these spiders. I got nothing else to say about these spiders or just the snakes. I know. That there's a purpose for everything. I just don't think that they should be anywhere near me. That's all. 

J. Aundrea: No, no. Some stuff can go extinct. Like I feel like mosquitoes, those can go ahead and go extinct.

Bruce Anthony: I'm sure mosquitoes have a purpose. No, they can't 

J. Aundrea: possibly. They know that possibly they're not like bees. They don't pollinate nothing. They just, they just, they're tearing my legs. 

Bruce Anthony: Yeah. Well, that's what they do. Yeah. 

J. Aundrea: Every time I go and walk the dogs, I come back and I'm just putting on Benadryl and cortisone cream [00:20:00] and fighting for my life because they are tearing me up out here and you can't tell me that they have any possible purpose.

J. Aundrea: I'm sure somebody on YouTube is going to be like, Oh, get on, but you know, it's the libra is the 

Bruce Anthony: list. Okay. I don't know, 

J. Aundrea: because that's how I see them in my head. But they, uh, said their saliva is key to I don't care. I really don't. I really don't care. I'm tired of them. And I feel like, it's 2024, why don't we have something better than off spray and citronella candles, which don't work, to deal with with mosquitoes!

J. Aundrea: This don't make no sense! Get rid of them! That's it. That's my rant about that. I don't know. 

Bruce Anthony: All right. And on that note, we're going to pay some bills and then we're going to come back talking about things that we want to get rid of. We want to get rid of this next person that we're talking about. And I am going to [00:21:00] make the phrase popular.

Bruce Anthony: Uncle Clarence, no longer uncle Tom, because I've already done an episode of how uncle Tom isn't the right phrase to be used. Uncle Clarence, but we're not talking about Clarence Thomas. We're talking about another uncle Clarence. We're going to get into that next.

Bruce Anthony: All right, Jay. 

J. Aundrea: Yeah. 

Bruce Anthony: You sent me something and you wanted to talk about it. And I was like, I was like, okay, we can talk about it. I saw it earlier in the week and I was just like, man, you know what? I really don't want to address this cause it's so stupid, but it is also important. 

J. Aundrea: Yes, because this person has the potential to possibly be the VP of the United States of America.

Byron Donalds and Controversial Comments
---

Bruce Anthony: Who are we talking about? Ladies and gentlemen, we're talking about Byron Donalds, the representative from Florida. And if you don't 

J. Aundrea: know who that is, you're [00:22:00] not missing much. 

Bruce Anthony: Well, you might know him cause he was the lone black representative during that whole house vote to find a new speaker. That was nominated for a quick second, but then voted for who's it Steve's, but I think he put his vote in for Jim Jordan.

J. Aundrea: Yeah. Let me tell you something about Byron Donalds. I'm sure that most places he is, he's the lone black 

Bruce Anthony: voice. Well, him and Tim Scott, anyway. So what did he do? What did he do? Why are we talking about him during a black voter outreach event for former president Donald Trump. So let's just, before I get into the details, let's just examine that.

Bruce Anthony: This is a black voter outreach event for Donald Trump. 

J. Aundrea: Yes, 

Bruce Anthony: I've said it before and people try to say that he's not, [00:23:00] at the very least, if he isn't racist, he's a bigot. 

J. Aundrea: He definitely, uh, has it in his lineage. 

Bruce Anthony: Yo, well, yeah, you know, cause there's, there's some stories out there that his dad was in the KKK, but okay.

J. Aundrea: Yeah. 

Bruce Anthony: All right. So what did Byron Donald's do at this black voter outreach event for former president Donald Trump? He suggested that black families were more unified and better off during the Jim Crow era. He made these remarks just Tuesday, June the 5th of 2024 was the fourth Tuesday was the, so it was Wednesday.

Bruce Anthony: No. So a Tuesday, June 4th, right? Okay. Not wasn't Wednesday. It was Tuesday, June 4th. Cause it wasn't yesterday. He suggested that things had gotten worse for black people after they embraced [00:24:00] Democrats following President Lyndon Baines Johnson's enactment of the Great Society programs in 1960s. I'm going to get into the Great Society programs first.

Bruce Anthony: Later, we're going to talk about Byron. 

J. Aundrea: Let's, let's be clear because I watched the video of his little comment because I was like, let me see this in context. 

Bruce Anthony: Okay. Byron. 

J. Aundrea: And that's typically, I'm typically not the, let me get the backstory type of person. If I see it, if I see it and it looks like trash, I'm just going to call it trash.

J. Aundrea: I don't need the backstory. So I said, let me hear it in context. He never said that black families were better off during Jim Crump. What he said was that black families were. Stronger or more unified during that era. So he's not saying like Jim Crow was the cause of black families being more [00:25:00] unified. He used the Jim Crow era just to talk about that time period.

J. Aundrea: Now what he could have Jim Crow at 

Bruce Anthony: all. Did he bring up Jim Crow at all? Did he say it? 

J. Aundrea: He did. He did. He said, now during Jim Crow, during Jim Crow, he said that. So he's 

Bruce Anthony: implying that during Jim Crow, Black people were better off. Black families were better off. 

J. Aundrea: But the implication is it, the implication is like Jim Crow.

J. Aundrea: Black families are better off in the Jim Crow era. It kind of 

Bruce Anthony: feels like that's what he said. 

J. Aundrea: What he, and far be it from me, Lord. It literally tastes like vomit in my mouth. You 

Bruce Anthony: know what? We did a role reversal. To defend 

J. Aundrea: Byron Donald. We 

Bruce Anthony: did a role reversal on this episode. We did. Because it's typically me being put in this position, but now it's you.

Bruce Anthony: Yes. It sucks, doesn't it? 

J. Aundrea: So this is, now, this is his explanation when he was asked on CNN to explain why, I mean, I know, I know sis wanted to say it this way. So I'm going to say it this way. Why the hell did you link them two [00:26:00] things together? The black family and Jim Crow? Like, that's what I would have. 

Bruce Anthony: It was my girl, Abby.

Bruce Anthony: Cause she right down the road from me. 

J. Aundrea: Okay. 

Bruce Anthony: Yeah. You know, I got, I got a little thing for her. 

J. Aundrea: Oh, okay. Yeah. Well, she's a beautiful woman. Anyway, 

Bruce Anthony: if you watch it, 

J. Aundrea: He, he was just saying, I was just talking about that era. Well, what, well, brother, you could have said in the late 19th century, early 20th century, that's what you could have said.

J. Aundrea: And then, but then to then add on to it. Oh, but after Johnson's, the great society, it fell apart. You are talking about specifically the Jim Crow era. 

Bruce Anthony: Yeah, that's what, yes, yes. 

J. Aundrea: Yeah. But I'm telling you what his explanation of this was. Oh, I just met that time period. I was just talking about the time period.

J. Aundrea: I'm not saying that black people were better off under Jim Crow. 

Bruce Anthony: Right. He 

J. Aundrea: was just saying during that, the era when Jim Crow, [00:27:00] and I'm just like, The two words, Jim and crow shouldn't come out your mouth, homie. Like it just shouldn't have, 

Bruce Anthony: yeah, we shouldn't have, it just shouldn't 

J. Aundrea: have 

Bruce Anthony: if his argument and later he, he kind of makes this argument.

Bruce Anthony: He made it then, but it gets more specific later. If it argument was that. The social programs enacted by President Johnson's greater society program crippled black families because of, I don't know what, what people love to call entitlement programs. Okay. Which are really just 

J. Aundrea: the same social programs.

J. Aundrea: Most industrialized nations offer their citizens. 

Bruce Anthony: Yeah, so if he made that argument, I wouldn't agree with him. I would still think that he's wrong, but at least I would say, okay, I kind of try to see where he's trying to come from. [00:28:00] I can see the correlation that he's trying to make. 

Controversial Statements on Jim Crow
---

J. Aundrea: I think that is the correlation he's trying to make.

J. Aundrea: These social programs, because remember, this is a guy who's in the freedom caucus. He decries socialism, doesn't think Biden is the legitimate president, like, so he is talking about these social programs and socialism is the reason why the black family has disintegrated. So he was very clear. He wants to go back to Jim Crow.

J. Aundrea: To Jim Crow. 

Bruce Anthony: Okay, I'm going to let you handle this because I think it's funny. I know I'm going to give you the opportunity to respond to this. Cause then I'm going to get into Johnson's great society program and what it was specifically. But what was the response that certain members of Congress had to Byron Donald's, you know, Hey, things were better before, let's just say not when it was in Jim Crow, [00:29:00] let's just say that he's saying that things were better before Lyndon Johnson's programs.

J. Aundrea: He's saying things were better before the civil rights era. 

Bruce Anthony: That's what he's saying. Yes. 

J. Aundrea: That's what he's saying. 

Bruce Anthony: Because it's the same era. It's the same thing. 

Political Reactions and Criticisms
---

J. Aundrea: So in USA Today, House Majority Leader Hakeem Jeffries, Democrat from New York, condemned what he called, quote, outlandish, outrageous, and out of pocket.

J. Aundrea: And I said, that's the three O's right there. Outlandish, outrageous, and out of statements made by rep Byron Donald of Florida about the Jim Crow era. So this is what, this is the quote, like this is what Byron actually said. He said, quote, you see, during Jim Crow, the black family was together during Jim Crow.

J. Aundrea: So he says it twice. More black people were not just conservative black people have always been conservative minded, but more black [00:30:00] people voted conservatively and Hakeem Jeffries called out the Florida lawmaker during a short house floor speech the next day, and he said, quote, is come to my attention that a so called leader has made the factually inaccurate statement that black folks were better off during Jim Crow.

J. Aundrea: We were not better off when people could be systematically lynched without consequence. How dare you make such an ignorant observation? This is my favorite thing. You better check yourself before you wreck yourself. Hakeem Jeffries. You are a delight 

Bruce Anthony: that look 1990s slang. 

J. Aundrea: Yes. And it's called them out of pocket.

J. Aundrea: So before you wreck yourself, 

Bruce Anthony: Oh man, that's funny. That's funny. All right. 

Lyndon B. Johnson's Great Society
---

Bruce Anthony: So he's [00:31:00] attacking Lennon Baines. Johnson's. Social programs and everybody that, that, that is an avid listener to this show or watching, you know, 10, 000 platforms, baby on all platforms knows how I feel about Lyndon Baines. Johnson's my favorite president of all time.

Bruce Anthony: Okay. 

J. Aundrea: It was. I, one time, this is a short segue, but it's related to Lyndon Baines Johnson. Okay. I, you know, that I am not a history person because I have a short attention span and even shorter memory. So I never know when things happened. If you asked me, Jonna, when was World War One? Couldn't tell you.

J. Aundrea: Okay. Don't know. 

Bruce Anthony: Okay. 

J. Aundrea: Early 20th century, right? I don't know. So I mean, 

Bruce Anthony: that is true. It was, it was, I think it was literally 1914 through 1918. I think it was world war one. I believe 

J. Aundrea: I can give you the, the century. Okay. [00:32:00] But I was in class, I was in college and the teacher had asked a question and it was the first time that I knew the answer.

J. Aundrea: And the answer was Lyndon Baines Johnson. I just. I knew it. I, I just knew it before I could raise my hand and give my fully correct answer. Someone else raised their hand and answered Andrew Johnson, correct. And I was dead ass wrong, but 

Bruce Anthony: I 

J. Aundrea: was not even close. Don't remember what the question was, but I wasn't even close.

J. Aundrea: But I did remember 

Bruce Anthony: who was the president after Lincoln. Cause I believe that was Andrew Johnson, by the way, I was right. World war one was between 1914 and 1918. And I [00:33:00] believe the president after Lincoln was Andrew Johnson. That we can look into that later. We don't have to look at that right now. I want to get into Lennon Baines Johnson's great society.

J. Aundrea: Yes. 

Bruce Anthony: Okay. So Lennon Baines Johnson's great society was set. It was a set of domestic programs launched in the United States between 1964 and 1965. The height of the civil rights movement, by the way. The main goal was the total elimination of poverty. Racial injustice, reduce crime and improve the environment.

Bruce Anthony: So what Lyndon Baines Johnson was trying to do was to create a utopia. Now there are going to be some cynics out there. It was like, no, that stuff can't exist. And maybe not. How do we know, unless we try and who wouldn't want to try to eliminate poverty, eliminate racial injustice. Reduce crime and improve the environment.

Bruce Anthony: Even, even Republicans [00:34:00] can agree on reducing crime. Yeah. Okay. 

Impact of Social Programs
---

Bruce Anthony: So here were some of the key programs and initiatives aid to education. This was one of the first broad federal investments in elementary and high school education, Medicaid and Medicare. That's right. Lennon Bayes Johnson is the reason why you have Medicare and Medicaid.

Bruce Anthony: And I know a lot of my senior citizens out there like, Oh, I did not realize that. Yes. It was Lennon Bayes Johnson. Cause you were alive. Well, yes, well, they, yes, they were, okay, well, they were, they were alive, but they may have just been kids. I mean, some of them could have just been kids. These of course, Medicare, Medicare, these were healthcare supports that greatly aided the elderly, poor and others.

Bruce Anthony: Okay. And 

J. Aundrea: by others, they mean people of color. 

Bruce Anthony: Yes. That's, that's what that means. 

Gentrification and Urban Renewal
---

Bruce Anthony: Urban renewal and beautification. These programs [00:35:00] aim to improve the living condition in urban areas. Now, urban areas are typically co word for 

J. Aundrea: black and 

Bruce Anthony: poor. 

J. Aundrea: Black and 

Bruce Anthony: poor. Guess what? These are major cities. New York City is an urban area.

J. Aundrea: Washington, 

Bruce Anthony: D. C. is an urban area. Atlanta, Georgia is an urban area. I know all these, and I know a few people that live in these small towns. It's just like, Oh, those schools, those areas are so disgusting. Well, they're highly populated. And if you had programs that would help you. Renewal and beautify these areas.

Bruce Anthony: Guess what? You'll have a lot less crime when you have pleasant places to live. This is part of the efforts to reduce crime. Okay. 

J. Aundrea: The only problem is that when we do that to urban areas, now you guys jack up the rent and the cost of literally everything that you push. Poor folks who have been living there for decades out and you move in and everybody that's still there You make it utterly [00:36:00] impossible for them to want to stay 

Bruce Anthony: that's called gentrification Also conservation and development of depressed regions this aim to improve the economic conditions of the economically backward regions So what were these regions Linda Baines Johnson was a poor boy from Texas If you don't know some of these rural areas in Texas, they are out there and real rural.

Bruce Anthony: I mean, Shannon Sharp, the, the announcer or the, the, the talking head for Shannon Sharp podcast and first take and all these other things openly talks about, he grew up in Georgia and they had an outhouse. This man is not a hundred years old in his fifties, right? There are a lot of people in flyover States that don't have broadband internet.

Bruce Anthony: I know people in urban areas. This is a shock to you, but there are people out there that are literally doing that dialogue. [00:37:00] Yeah, and that is 

J. Aundrea: all that is available. 

Bruce Anthony: Because that's all that's avail available. 

War on Poverty and Education
---

Bruce Anthony: He also had the War on Poverty. Johnson introduced the Office of Economic Opportunity and, and the Economic Economic Opportunity Act to help the underprivileged break the poverty cycle by helping them develop job skills further their education and find work.

Bruce Anthony: So this was a thing that ended right around my time in high school. One of my high schools in Lynchburg, Virginia was the last one to have one of type of these programs. Back in the day in high school, you could actually go to enter in programs that would teach you a trade so that you could have a job after you graduated high school, because not everybody was, was going to college.

Bruce Anthony: You could be a plumber, a car mechanic, an electrician, the things that we have to pay to go to school, to get certifications, to learn to do now was offered in high school, give people an opportunity. Notice he [00:38:00] said underprivileged, he didn't say black or brown. There's a lot of poor white people that were mines were closing.

Bruce Anthony: Uh, coal was, was shut down. Majority of poor 

J. Aundrea: people in the United States, white, right? There are a lot of rural areas that are not as economically developed as, you know, coastal leak area. Right. 

Bruce Anthony: And so when, when people talk about. You know, and I love it. I love it when certain Trump supporters say that black people have more rights than them, and these are white people.

Bruce Anthony: And I'm like, can you, can you, can you list off the rights? Cause I would love to know what I have access to you that you don't have. 

J. Aundrea: Name half of one. You, I don't even need you to name a full one. Give me half. 

Bruce Anthony: And so they'll say, well, you have better opportunities. And I'm like, you know what? You might be right because I live in an urban area [00:39:00] that will give me a little bit better opportunities and you live in a rural area, but I'm not the cause of that was the cause of that is all of these Republicans who are cutting down these programs that a democratic president was, had instituted to help you.

Bruce Anthony: I'm not the detriment to you. The people that you're voting for are the detriment to you. They're the ones who are in other words, 

J. Aundrea: You are the detriment to you. 

Bruce Anthony: You voted against yourself. So the control and prevention of crime and delinquency, this was aimed at reducing crime rates and preventing juvenile delinquency, taking them kids that's out there on the streets that dropped out of school, taking their ass.

Bruce Anthony: Right. Back to school, go in there and learn your ABCs and one, two threes, so that you could go out here and make some money, make a living, honestly, instead of having to rob and kill and shoot for the dollar bill. Now I just made up that just now, and I think it sounds good. 

J. Aundrea: And we're not saying that those things aren't cool and that they, they don't look [00:40:00] cool and they got all the money and the Cadillacs and all of that.

J. Aundrea: We 

Bruce Anthony: are saying those things are not cool. 

J. Aundrea: Oh, we're still on the air. 

Bruce Anthony: Yeah. All right. Okay. And the last thing that he did was a removal of obstacles to the right to vote. This was aimed at ensuring all citizens, regardless of their race or ethnicity, had the right to vote. You know, there was a whole thing where they were denying Black people the right to vote, right?

Bruce Anthony: And I know some, some people out there actually wish that that would be the case. And I do wish there was a competency, competency test. You know, you know, are you smart enough? Do you understand what's going on before you vote? But then again, we can't do that. Everybody should have the right 

J. Aundrea: to vote. 

Bruce Anthony: These programs.

Bruce Anthony: Everybody, 

J. Aundrea: even if you committed a crime. 

Bruce Anthony: Okay, here we go. Now, here's the kicker. Byron Donald said that the The black family has gone down by leaning in the Democrats and based off [00:41:00] of Lennon Bay's Johnson's. Policies, right? That's the basis of his argument. Here's the catch. 

Republican Expansion of Social Programs
---

Bruce Anthony: These programs expanded under the administrations of Republican presidents, Richard Nixon and Gerald Ford.

Bruce Anthony: Many of these programs include Medicare, Medicaid, the older Americans act and federal education funding continue today. So his argument was that black people. better off when they were in Jim Crow and they wasn't voting for Democrats and they weren't getting these programs that Lyndon Baines Johnson was instituted.

Bruce Anthony: What he failed to mention is that the preceding Republican presidents expanded upon those programs. It was not until Reagan came along that they started cutting these programs because even Nixon and Gerald Ford. Agreed. Get people educated, get people jobs. That's going to help reduce [00:42:00] crime, get people good healthcare, make sure they're healthy so that they can work to booster their economy.

Bruce Anthony: It all works out. The economy does need workers and we do need plumbers, electricians, car mechanics. We, we do need these things. Yeah. So basically Byron Donald's.

Bruce Anthony: That's the reason why I call him Uncle Clarence, because I don't know what his point was. The black family is not better under Republican president. 

Voting Rights and Political Irony
---

Bruce Anthony: They weren't, they weren't that far off with Nixon and Gerald Ford, because they still continue to programs. Right. It started with Reagan eliminating these programs.

Bruce Anthony: So if he wants to talk about them, Republican presidents, okay. We can talk about that Republican president Bush W. And, and Herbert Walker did not reduce Medicare and Medicaid. Now, some of these other programs, they did, [00:43:00] but, but they knew that one day 

J. Aundrea: they would, they too would get old, right? They knew that one day they too would get old.

J. Aundrea: Now they wouldn't necessarily need Medicaid, which is why they, you know, there are so many states, mostly here in the South that refused to fan Medicaid, even though they, the federal funding is there for them to do it. So they don't care as much about Medicaid, but for what, for four people, right. Medicare, right.

J. Aundrea: It's just supposed to be for old people, right. Oh, and for people with, with certain terminal illnesses and things like that. So, so. They're not going to vote against themselves. Yeah. They're going to vote to keep Medicare up. 

Bruce Anthony: Well, I will also say that older people are a larger voting block than poor people.

J. Aundrea: True. 

Bruce Anthony: Not to say that there aren't more older people than there are poor people. I don't know what the demographics are there. It might be older people are going to vote and they're going to vote [00:44:00] on everything. They ain't got nothing else to do. They just sitting around retired. They ain't paying attention to politics.

Bruce Anthony: So you're going to make sure that you cater to the senior citizens. Now the poor folks. Most of the time, since Voting Day is not a national holiday where everybody gets off of work, which is what it should be, most of the time people can't get off of work. And you can only vote during working hours. Very rarely do they extend the hours.

Bruce Anthony: That's a new thing. 

J. Aundrea: Yeah, yeah, that's new. I know here we can vote, I believe, until 7. Okay. What's up? I mean, what time people get 

Bruce Anthony: off work, 

J. Aundrea: but, but I don't listen. That's my excuse. Cause you could send in an absentee ballet or something like, you know, you could, there's early voting. There's, you don't have to vote on election day.

Bruce Anthony: You're right. You're right. You're right. 

J. Aundrea: Get out, get your, get your ass out there. 

Bruce Anthony: Vote. Yeah. And so Byron Donalds, you need to check yourself cause you already [00:45:00] wrecked yourself. 

J. Aundrea: Boy.

Corey Harris's Legal Troubles
---

Bruce Anthony: All right, so this is for the final segment, we're going to go back to talking about Corey Harris. Now, 

J. Aundrea: my favorite person, 

Bruce Anthony: if y'all don't know about Corey Harris on the last sibling happy hour show, we talked about Corey Harris. He was the one that was driving and got on his zoom court. And the zoom court was for him driving on a suspended license.

Bruce Anthony: So he had a suspended license case hearing and showed up, showed up driving, 

J. Aundrea: showed up driving. Yes. 

Bruce Anthony: And so we had a field day with that laughing and giggling cause it was crazy that he would do that. Then some news came out. And this, and he got some sympathy. Why did he get sympathy, Jay? 

J. Aundrea: Well, the, well, the story out there, [00:46:00] which I immediately did not believe.

Bruce Anthony: Cause I sent it to you, I sent it to you and I was like, we got it. And there was a comment on Instagram and then on YouTube, there was like, gee, this hag came out and I was like, we'll, we'll approach it. But we got to do a little bit more research. 

J. Aundrea: Right. 

Bruce Anthony: I'm not going off of what you said, but I got to do a little bit more research.

J. Aundrea: I'm going off the video I watched in which this man said nothing in his own defense. So the, the story that came out or the after. And it wasn't a story. I think it was like a tweet or no, 

Bruce Anthony: there was a store. Some local news organizations were reporting this. 

J. Aundrea: Okay. That 

Bruce Anthony: because there is some truth to this, 

J. Aundrea: that it was a clerical error.

J. Aundrea: His license was never supposed to be suspended. And so he's actually innocent. That's what this, and I immediately said, Right, 

Bruce Anthony: right. So the truth of the [00:47:00] matter was there wasn't a clerical error. He tried, Harris tried to blame the fact that his driving record was still listed as suspended on the Saginaw court saying that they were to blame for the suspension not being lifted in a child support case.

Bruce Anthony: All right, so I guess your license gets suspended if you don't pay your child support in Michigan. Yes. After a judge ordered that suspension to be lifted. However, court officials said Harris never paid his fees to the clerk's office. So, so a clearance was never sent to secretary of state. So he said, well, the judge said it was lifted and maybe it would have been lifted, but he ain't paid no fees to get it lifted.

Bruce Anthony: Like there's always fees to get us to set up. Right. So that's what everybody was jumping on after the story broke. About him driving in the car during the zoom hearing. 

J. Aundrea: Yeah. But listen to why does it don't make no damn sense. Okay. And [00:48:00] listen, cursory glance at this. It don't make no damn sense. 

Courtroom Drama and License Issues
---

J. Aundrea: This man was in court for a traffic violation of driving on a suspended license.

J. Aundrea: Okay. So whether he believed that that suspension should have been lifted or not, it wasn't. When he got pulled over and they ran his license, it came back suspended. So A reasonable person would think, my license is still suspended. Don't know the reason why, the judge told me it was lifted. Nah, I didn't pay my fees and stuff like I was supposed to.

J. Aundrea: But the judge told me it was lifted. But what you do know is that according to the person who pulled you over, whatever officer pulled you over, you have a suspended license. You got a court date. To go to court. And at that point you can defend yourself. And this man decided 

Bruce Anthony: he was driving a sick wife. He was driving [00:49:00] a sick wife to the doctor.

J. Aundrea: Did he say that? 

Bruce Anthony: No, that's what he said during an interview with the newspaper articles, like my job, my sick, sick wife to the doctor, you know, when he was pulling in, when he was whipping into the parking lot now, now we have to, there's going to be some people cause this will probably get clipped up in one of our little YouTube shorts that are going to say.

Bruce Anthony: But it was something where it got lifted. And I'm going to say, here's where everything falls apart. Cause he had a hearing this past Wednesday, yesterday, June the fifth. And in that hearing, during the hearing, Judge Cedric Simpson, the same judge that he had when he was on that Zoom hearing, revealed to Harris, revealed that Harris has never had a valid driver's license in Michigan or any other state.[00:50:00] 

Bruce Anthony: During the hearing with Harris and his new attorney, Detroit, 7 News Detroit asked Harris if he had a valid driver's license. He didn't recall a spokesperson for the secretary of state said they could confirm that Harris has never had a valid driver's license now, now that the judge has made the information public.

Bruce Anthony: So for all those people that were defending him 

J. Aundrea: and saying, 

Bruce Anthony: see, they screwed him, no, no man has never, not, not, it was a suspended license. It gets, 

J. Aundrea: it gets better. 

Bruce Anthony: I know it gets better. I'm going to get to that. I'm going to get to that. Yeah. Okay. He has never, never had a valid driver's license ever anywhere in his life.

J. Aundrea: Yes. Yes. 

Bruce Anthony: Never. All right. Do you want to break, do you want to break it, the break the news or you want me to break the news? 

J. Aundrea: No, this was another part [00:51:00] of it. Which is, since he was the age of 18, he has gone faithfully to get an I. D. 

Bruce Anthony: Yeah, no, that's, that, 

J. Aundrea: did you read the rundown notes? 

Bruce Anthony: Oh. It's in the rundown notes, I said that.

Bruce Anthony: Oh, I, I, 

J. Aundrea: I, 

Bruce Anthony: I read through the article. Ladies and gentlemen, let me go take a peek behind the curtain. I do read the 

J. Aundrea: rundown. 

Bruce Anthony: Okay, I do a rundown, right? As a producer of the show. 

J. Aundrea: Yes. 

Bruce Anthony: I produced the show. There's a rundown. So we, we know what we're going to talk about. We don't know what we're going to say, but we know there's bullet pulses, bullet points is the outline to the show.

Bruce Anthony: I literally had this. That's the reason why I said, Hey, do you want me to let you say it? And you were like, no, I'll let you say it. We went on to say the exact same, but you didn't even do it as well as I was going to say it. That's the thing. 

J. Aundrea: But well, here's, let me also just say. You jump around. With the bullet points, so I'm trying to follow [00:52:00] you.

J. Aundrea: Okay? Okay. I was trying to follow you so I didn't know which bullet point you were actually talking about. 

Bruce Anthony: Okay. Because you 

J. Aundrea: jumped up to the top, 

Bruce Anthony: so you right, you're right. You right. 

J. Aundrea: I was just like, let insert this here. 'cause it seems like this is the place to put it, . 

Bruce Anthony: Yeah, I, I, okay. You're right. I do be jumping around.

Bruce Anthony: I get to the segment and I do jump around 'cause my thoughts, you know. Yeah. All right. So, but, so this was the point, this was the point that you were making. Judge Simpson noted additional evidence that Harris knew that he never had a valid driver's license by the fact that Harris has faithfully renewed his state identification every year.

Media Misinterpretation and Public Reaction
---

Bruce Anthony: The end of the hearing, Judge Simpson revealed that Harris has a bench warrant for his arrest. Harris was stunned when at the end of the hearing Wednesday, when he revealed the judge Simpson revealed that he had a bench warrant. This [00:53:00] was Harris's attorney, defense attorney said, it should be something of a lesson for all of us, said Diane Webster Cox, Harris, new defense attorney.

Bruce Anthony: Handle your business at the end of the day, handle your business. Business. 

J. Aundrea: Period. And I said, after I saw that video, that Corey Harris looks like he drives without a license all the time. Because of the way he showed up, first of all, he was late to the zoom, to his court dates. He was, he logs in, phone in his hand and he's whipping.

J. Aundrea: And yeah, hold on a second. And he's telling everybody. Judge, prosecutor, to hold him a second while he whips it into this parking lot, knowing he got no license. He ain't never had a license, he wouldn't [00:54:00] have a license. And so his license suspension as part of the child support being at arrears, right?

J. Aundrea: That's just one of the things that they do. They didn't go and check to see if he had a valid driver's license to suspend. You got a license, it's suspended. 

Bruce Anthony: Which, okay, there are going to be people, there are going to be people out there. Okay, but there are going to be people out there but if they didn't know, then why is it such a big deal?

Bruce Anthony: Cause he knew! He was driving without a license. And this was a grown man. Look, I'm about to be 44 years old. He got me by at least 10, actually, no. It looks like you got me by like 10, 15 years. He is exactly my age. That's the crazy thing. So he's known that he hasn't had a driver's license for the last 28 years.

Bruce Anthony: Cause you get it at 16, 16 plus 28 equals 44. So he's known for 28 years. Okay. Then he ain't had no license. And I know what other people are going to say. Well, maybe he [00:55:00] refused and he started the state ID, which is driver's license. He ain't never take no test. He never has 

J. Aundrea: a test. Even to get your learner's permit.

J. Aundrea: You'd be able to take a written test. He has never taken a driver's ed course. He has never he gave it back in a 

Bruce Anthony: day. 

J. Aundrea: No. 

Bruce Anthony: No. 

J. Aundrea: Taking driver's ed. And pass the course, the natural step, next step is to go get your driver's license. He has never taken a driver's ed course. He has never gone and taken a written test.

J. Aundrea: He ain't taken a road test. He ain't done none of that. 

Bruce Anthony: Maybe he thought his state ID was his driver's license. 

J. Aundrea: No. 

Bruce Anthony: Maybe he thought he had a driver's license because they suspended it. 

J. Aundrea: Nobody has ever checked his eyesight. Nobody has ever evaluated this man on his ability to drive on public roads. And he knows that he's not dumb.[00:56:00] 

Bruce Anthony: And he doesn't have common 

J. Aundrea: sense. 

Bruce Anthony: Right. Look, and like his attorney, Diane Webster Cox said, handle your business. Is it 

J. Aundrea: Dion? Yeah. 

Bruce Anthony: Okay. Dion, Miss, Miss Webster 

J. Aundrea: Cox. How 

Bruce Anthony: about that? Yes.

J. Aundrea: Esquire, 

Bruce Anthony: handle your business at the end of the day, handle yo business. And he didn't handle it. That's the reason why his ass is in jail right now. And ladies and gentlemen, all those people was like, see, the media and everything jumping on you was a cleric error. No, no, this just came out yesterday. We got the updated information.

Bruce Anthony: I'm letting you know what it was because somebody hit me with it earlier today and said, are y'all going to talk about this, that everybody ran that man all through the, all through the mud. And, and, and it was a messed up era. And I was like, nope. And I'm going to explain it all during the show. Cause I got all the information.

J. Aundrea: Yeah. 

Bruce Anthony: Let it be known. [00:57:00] We do our research on here. We halfway journalists. Halfway. Halfway. I mean, 

J. Aundrea: I took a journalism class once. 

Bruce Anthony: I was in journalism, that was my first major, you know, I wrote for the school newspaper. I, you know, I was a columnist more than actual, like a, a journalist, but you know, same thing.

Bruce Anthony: Same thing. Same thing. Who 

J. Aundrea: cares? I mean, you know. 

Bruce Anthony: You got anything else to say about Cora Harris? Listen, 

J. Aundrea: if there's a fee, call them up. If you ain't got it, they understand. Like a lot of times people don't have it, but if there's a fee or a fine or something that you owe, handle. Your business, call them up, say, I don't have it.

J. Aundrea: What can I do? The course they'll work with you. Nobody is gonna, they'll work with you to set up a pair of play some, but he was already behind in his child support. So he. He damn sure wasn't about to pay no court fees. And [00:58:00] 

Bruce Anthony: then tried to blame it on the county. He tried to blame it on the 

J. Aundrea: county. Tried to blame it on the county.

J. Aundrea: I don't have nothing against Corey Harris. What I have is a problem with people who don't take accountability for their own crap. 

Bruce Anthony: Yeah. And you really Willfully, 

J. Aundrea: willfully stupid. 

Bruce Anthony: And here's the thing. News, 7 News Detroit straight up asked him, do you have a valid driver's license? And he was like, I don't recall.

J. Aundrea: That's ridiculous. 

Bruce Anthony: You never had a driver's license. Ever. In any state. 

J. Aundrea: Ever had it. 

Bruce Anthony: Judge was like, judge was like, look, you ain't never had no driver's license. I'm not trying to hear this. You ain't never had no driver's license. Nowhere, anywhere. Not in the state of Michigan, not in Illinois, not in DC, not in anywhere in the 50 States, 

J. Aundrea: not 

Bruce Anthony: overseas.

J. Aundrea: Because I'm sure the judge saw that little story come out. It was like, Oh no, y'all not going to make it seem like I did something wrong here. Let me look up. [00:59:00] It's C. If this man ever had a driver's license. Oh, you never did. 

Bruce Anthony: I guarantee you during that hearing, the initial hearing, he already had this information.

Bruce Anthony: They, look, they, the prosecution probably had this information. They had all the information that they needed. But all he was going to get was a little fine. He wasn't going to go to jail. The reason why he went to jail is because he was whippin into the parking lot, driftin his Zoom hearing. Hold up real fast, I'm about to park.

Bruce Anthony: Corey Harris. That's all I got to say. That's all I got to say.
