All right, f y’all. So, I was on Instagram a little bit early and I came across this video and then I watched this video and I said, “I know I am not seeing what I’m seeing.” So, I need you to play the video I saw on Instagram. I need you to Y’all don’t have a video. I sent you the link to Okay.
All right. Let me play the video myself cuz y’all I saw this video. Woo! When I say I was hot when I saw I said I can’t believe what I’m seeing. Uh this nonsense that I’m seeing from this person right here uh posting on Instagram.
And I’m like I know that is not who I think it is posting what he just posted. Uh and then I looked at it and I said, “Oh, that is him. I can’t believe he posted that video.
So, let me go ahead and show y’all this cuz I want y’all going y’all going to trip. Y’all going to trip.
Watch this video. Is closing here in the city of Albany and that leaves us with a little over 500 students that were here on this campus and 19% of those students are labeled as homeless. We have a little over 250 jobs that’ll be leaving the city of Albany. And while this is not the city of Albany government’s fault, this is a time for our local and state leadership to step up cuz we’d be stupid to act powerless in this situation. Because while this school is still here, while this building is still here, excuse me, while this campus is still here, what could this become?
Could this become a a Southwest Georgia regional hub for trade skills training? Could this become something major that the city brings on to start training workforce? Because we’re training workforce, then we can invite industry to come here.
But if we don’t have any workforce for industry, they’ll never come. And if DHY County School Systems could train workforce in adults, why can’t the city of Albian do the same thing?
So my question to leadership is, are we going to allow this opportunity now to pass us by or are we going to lead? Are our leaders going to lead? And if they don’t want to lead, they need to step aside, let somebody else do it.
Oh, he said that if our leaders are not gonna lead, they should step aside and let somebody else do it. That’s interesting.
Now, when I saw I I remember when he came on this show after he was going at me on Twitter when he was supporting the Republican in G Republicans in Georgia voter suppression bill and he was talking [ __ ] with another black conservative. Then they said, “Well, he ain’t going to never put us on the show.” Now I bite his ass on the show. Then he tried to change his tune when he came on the show. Roll it.
Joining us right now uh is uh King Randall One, founder of the X for Boys uh organization based out of Georgia. Uh so King, explain why in the world uh you’re conservative, correct? Yes, sir. So, please explain to me why this bill, why Republicans are pushing forth a voter suppression bill when last year we saw record turnout in Georgia, record turnout. So, why would they want to restrict voting when you just had record turnout in Georgia?
Well, let me start off by saying uh you had me uh mistaken.
I’m not a Republican. I I do consider myself conservative. No, no, no. Actually, I didn’t say Republican.
I said you’re conservative. Okay. I said you’re conservative. Absolutely. That’s what I said.
Right. Yeah. I was saying that because you called me a Republican on Twitter. Um however, uh with this particular bill, I don’t consider uh voting my particular fight. Um, I do consider uh voting a asset to us and maybe something we can use as a tactic to help.
But as far as us pushing voting uh all the way out, like voting is going to be some systemic change uh for the black community uh to me is is not the way to go. Um if you look at the human anatomy of the body or the body has it many different parts and I do respect uh you guys’ fight, you know, in regards to voting, but I don’t consider myself uh fighting uh for the right to vote that much because we hadn’t got anything government. Uh yes sir I vote absolutely.
Okay so when you say you guys’s fight first of all there are multiple fights that multiple issues we can be concerned about. Voting is one of those issues.
Are you not concerned that Republicans in your state are trying to restrict access to the ballot for no reason other than they are pushing the lie that Donald Trump also pushed. Right. Absolutely. I understand exactly what you’re saying. Uh however again that’s not my fight.
I believe No. I know. I asked you a question. I asked you a question. The question is this here.
Do you believe Republicans in your state are wrong to be pushing this voter suppression bill? Can you give me the the list of things that’s all on the bill? Because I know you said uh the the voter ID Well, no.
Here’s a perfect here’s a perfect example. Uh this particular what was funny is he was he was defending the voter suppression bill on Twitter, but he didn’t think I was going to buy him on the show.
So, let me tell you what he did. He then posts that video. He edits edits it. He edit edits the video. Uh, and then, oh, uh, you know, I’m building this school.
Black man should be helping me build my school. You know, and the same simple Simon Negroes I called out earlier, they were all like, I see, that’s right, Roland Martin, that’s a shame. You you should be ashamed of yourself. You should be supporting this brother in his school. Oh, that’s right.
Uh, he just them negroes was sitting here sending him money and then what he did is he got on Fox News and Lawrence Jones had him on. Then the white conservatives jumped on him and so he starts raising money. And so anytime he’s mentioned me on Twitter, it was all about raising money.
Oh man. Oh, they were trying.
They were after me for two years. Oh, I was dissing his brother and all sort of stuff along those lines. And I’m like, okay, that’s interesting. And so here you now have King Randall now complaining about a program, jobs being cut and how that’s hurting young folks. And that’s interesting because uh the program that he’s speaking about, that very specific program in Albany, Georgia, he’s talking about go to my iPad.
This is the story right here. US Department of Labor pauses job core center operations. So the very program that that that that that he is complaining about has been stopped by the Trump Department of Justice. Now, here’s what I don’t understand. Matter of fact, let me go ahead and play this again because see, I love it when somebody uh calls out leaders, but they don’t really call out the specific leaders who they talking about.
So, let me just go ahead and play it again what he had to say because he was just so insensed that this program was being cut because it was vital to providing jobs for young people. Listen again. Let’s do it. Turn the job core is closing here in the city of Albany. And that leaves us with a little over 500 students that were here on this campus.
And 19% of those students are labeled as homeless. We have a little over 250 jobs that’ll be leaving the city of Albany. And while this is not the city of Albany government’s fault, this is a time for our local and state leadership to step up cuz we’d be stupid.
Hold up. He said it’s not the city of Alby’s fault and we would be stupid not to step up and lead.
Listen, fault. This is a time for our local and state leadership to step up cuz we’d be stupid to act powerless in this situation. Because while this school is still here, while this building is still here, excuse me, while this campus is still here, what could this become? Could this become a a Southwest Georgia regional hub for trade skills training? Could this become something major that the city brings on to start training workforce?
Because if we’re training workforce, then we can invite industry to come here. But if we don’t have any workforce for industry, they’ll never come.
And if DHY County School says we could train workforce and adults, why can’t the city of Albanian do the same thing? So my question to leadership is, are we going to allow this opportunity now to pass us by or are we going to lead? Are our leaders going to lead?
And if they don’t want to lead, they need to step aside, let somebody else do it. Senator Job Core is closing here in the city of Albany. And that leaves us with a little over 500 students that were here on this campus. And here we are. Here we are.
He’s complaining about He’s complaining about losing the jobs. Okay, that’s interesting. And then he says th this ain’t city and state leaders fault, which means that it’s someone else’s fault.
So King Randle, whose fault is it? Whose fault is it?
Who’s over that particular program? Who controlled the funding? Who made the decision to shut that particular program down? I would like to know that. So I remember seeing a particular photo uh on social media and I remember and I knew I said and I and I said wait a minute.
I remember seeing somebody I remember seeing somebody at the White House Christmas party. Go to my iPad. I’m I’m sorry. It is that King Randall. I’m that it says new emerging king.
Oh. Oh, I’m sorry. Maybe y’all say, “Well, you know, that’s just a photo.” Well, that was another black conservative who posted a video. Can Can y’all roll that video, please?
I to celebrate Black History Month despite the media alleging that it was cancelled by President Trump.
But like always, fake news. I landed safely thanks to Delta Airlines and time to take a quick shower before throwing on my Sunday’s best. Here I’m rocking my Palagio sports jacket with a black turtleneck and a black Bailey fedora. Soon after this, I ran into my black family on the way to the White House.
But I must give a shout out to the guy that made it all happen, Pierre Wilson. He is the real deal. But with moves like this, he’s clearly not like us. We were all smiles waiting in line in this 20°ree weather to get inside to celebrate this momentous occasion because of what it meant to all of us. All I can think about in my head right here is how much I’ve overcame throughout the years being open with my conservatism.
For some reason, it brings out the worst in people, and I think it’s because I refused to live up to their expectations of me. While I was in the White House, I wasn’t quite sure how much I could record, but the security guard reassured me that we had free reign to capture whatever we wanted, so I took full advantage.
While I was in the restroom, though, I noticed these napkins with the presidential seal on them, and they almost felt disrespectful to use it and toss it straight into the trash can. They rolled out the red carpet for everyone. who would dress to the nine, looking good, smelling good, eating good, drinking good, and sounding good.
See, the marine band that was in charge of the music understood the assignment. They were playing everything from Earth, Wind, and Fire all the way down to Sam Cook, making this a magical time. Everything opened up by a classical version of America the Beautiful set in the atmosphere. And it was great to be surrounded by so many of my favorite people. Michaela Montgomery, David Harris Jr.
, Terrence K.
Williams, go back. Who do y’all see right there on the left? That look like King Randall. So, let me get this straight.
King Randall complains about a federal program getting cut that’s taking jobs away in his town of Albany, Georgia. He’s a self-identified conservative. Don’t call me Republican. Okay, fine. But you’re standing there smiling and cheesing with the MAGA Negroes the help.
You’re at the White House. You supporting Trump, but now you mad and you want local and state officials to fix the problem that Trump created.
And in your Instagram video, your ass didn’t even mention the word federal. You didn’t even say Trump. You didn’t even say MAGA.
You didn’t even say Doge. Now you want folks to step up and fix the problem. What I’ve been telling y’all, I’ve been telling y’all the help. That’s the black people who are standing with Donald Trump. They claim all black y’all on a plantation.
Y’all on the plantation. On the plan, Trump is going to be helping us out. And Donald Trump has consistently had policies that have negatively impact people. And these simple Simon Negroes ain’t said nothing. Daryl Scott ain’t said nothing.
Shereice Lane ain’t said nothing. Michaela ain’t said nothing. Angela Stanton King ain’t said nothing. Uh, we can go. Joseph Pinon ain’t said nothing.
Terence Williams ain’t said nothing. David Harris Jr. ain’t said nothing. Byron Donalds ain’t said nothing. Tim Scott ain’t said nothing.
Wesley Hunt ain’t said nothing. Burgess Owens ain’t said nothing. Uh, I can go down the line. But now y’all complaining Trump has sat here and got rid of the settlement to impact the sewage backing up in the yards and the homes of black people in Loun County, Alabama. Said nothing said nothing about cancelling the lawsuit against the prochemical companies in cancer alley in Louisiana where black people are dying because of that.
They them the help ain’t said nothing.
Ain’t so now you want us now you want to call on folks to stand up and fix the program. Come on, King Randall. You supposed to be big and bold. You supposed to be a big man on campus.
Why is it you won’t even say Donald Trump? You won’t even say MAGA. You know why? Cuz y’all scared of your daddy. Cuz y’all scared he not going to invite y’all back to the White House.
And see, y’all love Tom B. But y’all won’t say nothing. Oh, trust me. I lit Obama up on several different things. I did the same thing with Biden.
See, I believe in accountability.
I don’t just sit here and say one thing, but see, they real quiet. All this stuff that’s negatively impacted black people, all of them are quiet. They ain’t saying nothing. Not a word.
So, come on, Randall. I I I dare you, Randall. I I I dare you to call your boy Lawrence B. Jones at Fox News who’s now on the morning couch and say, “Lawrence, can I please come on to make a personal appeal to Trump to restore the programming for this uh the funding for this program so we don’t lose these jobs?” I don’t think that’s going to happen cuz you know why?
Cuz see, Lawrence B. Jones ain’t trying to be on the bad side, Donald Trump.
Cuz they all trying to kiss that orange maga ass. So, isn’t it interesting that you come on my show, you talk [ __ ] on Twitter, you didn’t think I was going to invite you, then you did a bait and switch where you came on my show, then you use my show to raise money for your school, but now you complain about job losses of young people in your town. And it’s Trump’s fault and you ain’t saying a word.
Ain’t that interesting? I guess that’s how it goes these days, Michaela. The help is quiet when it’s time to speak up. I mean, that’s why I wonder why. Melinda, I’m sorry.
Melinda, I’m sorry. It’s okay. It’s okay. You are going off about Michaela. You living rentree in your head.
You’re upset. I get it. Um, but no, I just think it’s it’s funny that people like us are apparently on the plantation, but we’re not afraid to actually criticize um our party or people that we vote for, but they will not say anything about Trump when it is explicitly his fault.
I just looked it up. It’s the Department of Labor and it’s about his budget.
That’s why they cut the JobCore program. So, it is directly a result of him voting for Trump and he doesn’t want to have to reconcile with the fact that he was a part of the problem that made this happen. No, Michael. Well, Roland, uh, we we tried to tell them and how many times have I talked about this document on your show before? Okay.
This deals with the policies of the Biden Harris administration to help black people. The Biden Harris administration advances equity opportunity and opportunity for black Americans and communities across the country.
Okay, this documents that. Um, and right now it Donald Trump is is wiping out the advancement that African-Americans have made going back to the 1960s. On day one, he revoked uh executive order 11246, which was affirmative action.
On day one, he revoked executive order uh 11985, which Biden signed on his first day in office, which put in motion all this that happened because that executive order dealt with equity and that immensely helped African-Americans. So, yes, it’s good to have an independent school. We we’ve been doing that for decades, independent schools, but we have to understand how politics impacts every aspect of your life. and your understanding of politics is directly related to your understanding of history. So there’s a lot of people talking about politics that don’t understand history.
Matt, I don’t have anything profound to add, but all I’ll say is that I think it’s a missed opportunity because you think, you know, if you look at this from a nuanced um perspective, I mean, this is an opportunity, right, for local um people to, you know, invest in this lost job program.
But the issue with that is you don’t have credibility if you don’t call out why the job program was lost, which is your point. And that’s the issue that I see here. I mean, it looks like this brother theoretically is trying to do something good in his community, but you lose credibility when you don’t say why it’s no longer there and why your desire to have proximity to power is more important than the actual things you stand you claim to stand for, which is, you know, having jobs in the community. You should be able to say this is gone because of a Trump policy.
The same way you would surely say if that program was lost under Mr. Biden’s administration that this is no longer here because the Biden administration took it away from you. Unless you’re willing to call a spade a spade, you aren’t credible. And I don’t see why you wouldn’t do that here. But I understand you got to kiss the ring.
And that’s what we’re seeing conservatives of all colors do.
They’re all afraid to call out Trump. They’re all afraid to call out his insanity because they want to keep that proximity to power. Uh and that’s why y’all need to go ahead. Y’all got y’all got our uh t-shirt.
That’s why y’all need to get our new shirt. #we tried to tell you um FAFO uh 2025. Uh that’s why we got that shirt right there cuz probably 2025 a bunch of y’all are [ __ ] around and y’all finding out real quick. All right. Uh somebody in the chat room said, “Damn, bro.
You on one today.” Yes, I am. Hello, I’m Isaac Hayes the third, founder and CEO of Fanbase. Listen to what I’m about to tell you. The window to invest in Fanbase is closing.
