00:00I paid for my pardon and nothing happened.
00:02Where's my money?
00:04This is ridiculous.
00:06Boosie.
00:14What's up, YouTube?
00:15Drill Sergeant here.
00:17And Boosie Badass.
00:20He...
00:21Well...
00:21Well, he's not the brightest bulb on the tree.
00:25Right?
00:26He's kind of an idiot.
00:29Just a piece, though, just a little bit.
00:32And we'll explain why later.
00:34We'll explain why just a little bit.
00:36But yeah, he's an idiot.
00:41Boosie Badass paid a bunch of money,
00:43hundreds of thousands of dollars,
00:46because, well, he wanted a party, okay?
00:49It looks to have backfired, so he's now suing the firm
00:53who should have represented him, according to the allegation.
00:57Put it up full mask.
00:59According to the New Republic, rapper Boosie Badass is naming more names after he was allegedly scammed
01:06out of $600,000 for a presidential pardon that never came.
01:13Yeah, you see, that right there, that's illegal, Boosie.
01:19It's illegal.
01:20You can't do that.
01:23I know that rappers love to talk about their crimes
01:26and brag about their crimes on record, in raps, in the music,
01:31and they feel, you know, they feel, like, invincible because it's art.
01:37And when you're rapping, you can say,
01:40hey, this is just a creative thing,
01:43but you weren't rapping, Boosie.
01:46That's a Twitter post.
01:48I don't believe what y'all are saying about Boosie.
01:51Not until, hey, not until he say something himself.
01:55Everyone you said you reached out to for my pardon has said you are lying.
02:00Every name you name has denied your allegations.
02:03Everybody you name will have their time to speak.
02:07It's getting hot.
02:08So where did the money go?
02:10I thought Trump signed the pardon.
02:12I thought you had the president on speed dial.
02:14You should have did your research before trying to jack me like you did the others.
02:19Hashtag I'm loved and respected.
02:22Come on now, dawg.
02:24Come on, man.
02:26YouTube, you can't make this stuff up.
02:29And nobody ever said that he was a genius before.
02:35But I got to give you a little nuance, YouTube.
02:37It's me.
02:38You know what it is.
02:39You come on this channel, there's got to be something that we can talk about,
02:43that we can learn, that we can grow from as the resistance,
02:46and God, dawg, and if I don't have it.
02:47So let me talk about this in three distinct parts.
02:51Number one being, he's an idiot.
02:53But then, why do I say just a little bit?
02:56We'll get into that.
02:58But first, part one.
03:00Why Boosie Badass is an idiot?
03:04I paid for my pardon and nothing happened.
03:07Where's my money?
03:08This is ridiculous.
03:11Boosie.
03:14Boosie.
03:15Come on now, dawg.
03:17Come on, dawg.
03:20Come on, man.
03:20Boosie Badass sues after paying $600,000 for a Trump pardon that never materialized.
03:28Uh-uh.
03:29Uh-uh.
03:30That can't be the Boosie I know.
03:32That can't be the Boosie I know.
03:34Come on now, dawg.
03:36Come on, man.
03:39Suing because the President of the United States didn't honor your bribe.
03:44Incredible.
03:45Hey, Boosie, maybe they just spelt your name wrong.
03:49It might be on the way.
03:51Hey, go in there and tell them B-O-O-S-I-E-B-A-D-A-Z-Z.
03:57That's me.
03:58Wipe me down.
03:59Look at this.
03:59A star rapper is in arbitration after paying $600,000 for a presidential pardon that never
04:04arrived.
04:04Rapper Boosie Badass.
04:08Is that the French?
04:09That's the French pronunciation, Boosie Badass?
04:12No, it's B apostrophe-Dass.
04:15Rapper Boosie Badass, whose legal name is Torrance Hatch, is seeking to recover $300,000 from
04:20MAGA lobbyists Jacob Wohl and Jack Berkman.
04:22Now that reminds me of...
04:24Yeah, what's going on?
04:26Well, the lady owes me $20.
04:28I gave her a $20 and she didn't give me nothing.
04:29Why did she owe you $20?
04:30I gave her a $20 bill.
04:31I gave her a $20 bill.
04:32For what?
04:33For anything.
04:34I don't care.
04:34Whatever it's for, but she can give me my money back if she ain't going to do nothing with it.
04:37Okay, were you planning to buy some drugs or something?
04:39What kind of drugs were you wanting to buy?
04:40Rock.
04:40Rock?
04:41Yes, I wish.
04:41You gave her $20.
04:42I gave her $20.
04:43She gave me some plaster.
04:44And now you want your $20 back because she didn't supply you with crack cocaine.
04:48That's the thing.
04:49That's the whole thing.
04:52You cannot sue someone for an illegal act that you did.
04:58I can't.
04:59I'm trying.
05:01YouTube.
05:02You can't sue someone for an illegal act you did.
05:05You can't call the police on yourself.
05:07You cannot call the police on yourself.
05:10You cannot bring the executive branch of the government down on yourself for an illegal act you did that went
05:18wrong.
05:19It's the whole reason why there's violence in the first place.
05:23Because drug dealers can't get lawsuits and can't sue people who steal their stuff from them.
05:30101.
05:32This is streets 101.
05:34For that, you're an idiot.
05:36I do think, though, that when you're already in prison, or when you've already, you know, you already need a
05:47pardon, maybe you just don't feel like there's anything else left to lose.
05:52It's the last hurrah.
05:53And this is why it's just a little bit.
05:57Because it's also kind of smart.
05:59Look who he names.
06:02Boozy just blew the lid off this whole shit.
06:03Because he came out, he came out to the quiet part loud.
06:05Okay?
06:06So he tweets the following.
06:07Ready?
06:07Laura Loomer, Mike Cernovich, Jack Posobiec, Erica Kirk, Mike Johnson, Nancy Mace, Andy Biggs.
06:12Can the names above please make a truthful statement about having contact, or no contact, with Berkman and Wohl about
06:18my pardon process?
06:19600,000 was taken from me with your names mentioned and emails by these people.
06:23Thanks!
06:24So according to Boozy, he's like, I talked to this right-wing hack, and this right-wing hack, and this
06:28right-wing hack, and this right-wing hack.
06:30Now, by the way, it's, but he's calling all of them out, saying all you motherfuckers are implicated in this,
06:33right?
06:33Which could bring legal consequences, eventually, not now, under Trump.
06:36Crime is legal if you're a Republican, right?
06:38But he's calling them all out and saying, what the fuck?
06:39So this guy, Jacob Wall, he's a known con artist.
06:42He's a known scammer.
06:43He's committed a number of scams.
06:44I think he's actually been found guilty of multiple scams.
06:46So clearly, Boozy didn't do his fucking research, gave Wall this money.
06:50I don't know how these other people were involved, but he's saying these other people were involved.
06:52And instead of having these actual connections, he was lying.
06:56Now, the shyster that he used to get a pardon, these scam artists that he used, that he should have
07:05known, he should have done the research to,
07:07said that they reached out to these people, and the biggest problem that they have now is just the fact
07:15that their name is in it.
07:17They didn't have anything to do with it.
07:18Maybe, maybe not.
07:20I don't know.
07:22I don't know what Laura Loomer is promising people.
07:26I don't know what any of those right-wing nutjobs are promising people.
07:30They're all liars and grifters, and that's why him saying their names out loud is a little bit smart.
07:35It is the break glass in case of emergency, because if nothing else, these guys are going to be the
07:44ones to get after that scam law firm, or are going to have to denounce themselves from this in such
07:53a vibrant way that others will see.
07:57So, yeah, that happened, and it's not that I'm above clowning him, because I'm clowning him.
08:10But let's not act like he's not a street dude who is just trying to do what other street dudes
08:16have done and gotten away with.
08:18That also makes you more dumb, because they did it, and somehow you couldn't figure it out.
08:23But let's not act like this didn't happen.
08:26And he's pardoning some of the biggest criminals in the country.
08:29Watch this.
08:29Here we go.
08:29It's a wonderful time to be a criminal.
08:31If you cozy up to Donald Trump, that is.
08:33Trump has been using his presidential power to shield his allies and donors from legal trouble, while his Department of
08:37Justice goes after his political enemies.
08:38Is this the same guy?
08:39I am your president of law and order.
08:41Who is he pardoned so far?
08:42Trevor Milton, the former CEO of an electric car company, was convicted of securities and wire fraud.
08:46During his appeal, he donated heavily to Trump's re-election campaign.
08:49Oh, and one of Milton's lawyers was the brother of Pam Bundy, the future U.S. Attorney General.
08:53Another pardon was for Todd and Julie Chrisley, fellow reality TV personalities.
08:57They were convicted of tax evasion and bank fraud totaling $36 million.
09:01Maybe the pardon has something to do with their daughter's speech at the Republican National Convention.
09:04Donald J. Trump has only one conviction that matters, and that is his conviction to make America great again.
09:10Your parents are going to be free and clean, and I hope you can do it by tomorrow.
09:13Next up, Paul Walczak, a nursing home executive who was charged with defrauding the government of millions of dollars, using
09:18some of the money to buy himself a yacht.
09:21He pleaded guilty and was sentenced to 18 months in prison.
09:23A judge defended the sentence, saying there isn't a get-out-of-jail-free card for wealthy people.
09:27Not so fast, Your Honor.
09:28Walczak's mother is a major Trump donor who attended a million-dollar plate fundraising dinner at Mar-a-Lago.
09:33Less than three weeks later, Trump signed a full and unconditional pardon for her son.
09:37Not only did it keep Walczak out of prison, it got him out of paying $4.4 billion in restitution.
09:42In fact, Trump's thumb on the scales of justice has erased roughly $1.3 billion in fines and restitution
09:48that pardon recipients would have paid their victims and the government.
09:51And it's not just individuals, either.
09:52By the way, that adds insult to injury.
09:54Not only were you conned, not only were you defrauded, but at the same time, a court says,
09:59this person's going to prison and they owe you restitution.
10:01They gotta pay you back the money they stole you, and then some probably, right?
10:04And Trump goes in there and says, total pardon, unconditional, and also I'm wiping out the restitution that you have
10:09to pay.
10:10So since you gave him a million dollars or whatever it is through Mar-a-Lago,
10:13therefore, he's like double conning the victims.
10:16It's a whole other round of a con of the victims.
10:18Because they get their hopes up, the person goes to prison, they're going to get paid back,
10:21and then boom, all that is taken away in a fucking instant.
10:23All because of bribery.
10:25Open bribery.
10:26I don't want to hear another fucking word ever again about Hunter Biden or Nancy Pelosi or Joe Biden or
10:30fucking Burisma or whatever the fuck.
10:31This guy, on a random Tuesday, has done more corruption and bribery than any Democrat has over four years or
10:38eight years in power.
10:38I don't want to fucking hear it.
10:39The administration has paused or dropped investigations into at least 17 corporations that donated to his inauguration fund.
10:45You see the pattern?
10:46Do something for Trump, and maybe Trump does something for you.
10:49Buttering up Trump has proven so lucrative, allies and lobbyists are reportedly receiving multi-million dollar payouts
10:53to get pardon requests in front of the president.
10:56One was quoted as saying, it's like the Wild West.
10:58You can basically charge whatever you want.
10:59Snoop Dogg, too.
11:00I just didn't put him in here.
11:02Snoop Dogg got his friend pardoned.
11:04And now he's a, you know, he don't got nothing to say about Trump.
11:07And a year before that, he had the middle finger up and everything.
11:11The point is, these guys do what they feel they have to do.
11:17They've been doing that.
11:19If they're actual street booze, some of them may be just actors.
11:22None of it matters.
11:24I'm 100% sure that Kodak Black and Lil Wayne aren't on Donald Trump's playlist.
11:30And that he doesn't know the nuances of their cases when he pardoned them.
11:35That's all I'm saying.
11:36And this dude did actually say that he, of course he would do that.
11:40This is what he does.
11:43These rappers are not loyal to the struggle.
11:46They will do anything with this man to get out of the trouble that they made for themselves.
11:52Booze told us he would do this five years ago.
11:54Would you have done that?
11:56Uh, yeah.
11:57Yeah?
11:57Yeah.
11:57You take a picture with Trump?
11:58Yeah, if I ever, for not going to jail?
12:02Hell yeah.
12:02Yeah, I think most people would.
12:03Hell yeah.
12:04I mean, Lil Boosie.
12:05So not only are you an idiot for just blurting out your criminality, calling the executive
12:12branch, calling the law on yourself by trying to sue them, saved it a little bit by giving
12:20those names.
12:20I'll give you that.
12:21That was like, hey, you know, press the red button, boom.
12:27Boom.
12:28But you're also a little bit slow because everybody else figured out a way.
12:33Kodak Black figured out a way.
12:35This guy can't be that smart.
12:38I'm just saying.
12:39I'm just saying.
12:40The other side is, no matter how bad this guy is for this, Boosie, you're ridiculous,
12:48right?
12:48You showed yourself.
12:50The other side is, no matter how bad you want to call this guy, he's not this bad.
12:56As a sentence, as to count one of life in prison, as to count two, 15 years Florida Department
13:04of Corrections.
13:05As to count three, five years Florida Department of Corrections.
13:09As to count four, 15 years Florida Department of Corrections.
13:13as to count five 15 years florida department of corrections and as count six you were found
13:19not guilty the court finds that you qualify as a sexual predator and i'm going to designate you
13:26as such i love you sir i'm sorry man that's part three is can we get some perspective and it's
13:39not going to end the way you think it's going to end because it is just a little bit but
13:44can we get
13:44some perspective i mean if you were a rich criminal and you needed a pardon i'm gonna let this scroll
13:53i'm gonna let this scroll next to me while i'm talking to you boozy i get it i get it
14:01we're not
14:01getting you're not getting any extra scrutiny from me people are gonna laugh at you and they're gonna
14:08make entire videos about you because you're also famous and you're a rapper and you talk shit so
14:14you get it back the thing is everybody let's not act like this isn't the case let's also be sure
14:22that
14:23as we're calling out the idiocy and having fun we're mad at the people who we should be mad at
14:30the people selling those pardons because although boozy badass got got grifted got scammed because
14:37that's what people on the right do this guy is a well-known scam artist you saw the video and
14:43he
14:44wasn't smart enough to see it let's not forget and let's make sure we're mad at who we need to
14:49be mad
14:50at so let's real quick we need to make sure that we understand the difference right between a street
14:56dude who's you know a couple pegs short from a full fence and who who's just a criminal who's trying
15:06to do criminal things saw other criminals getting away with it and was too stupid to do it himself
15:12the difference between him and the actual raccoon face traitor i hate my own race and the face that
15:22stares back at me in the mirror disgusts me and i just want to be in the house with the
15:28whip at all
15:29times like this guy charlie kirk said black men like you were better off during slavery do you agree with
15:36him now listen 100 you believe 100 imagine being that pathetic imagine hating yourself and people who
15:48look like you so much that you have to sit there and agree with someone when they say charlie kirk
15:54said
15:55men like you were better off when you were slaves
16:00he didn't disagree he said 100 and then with a smirk on his face he said now what because
16:09in most cases that would have ended the conversation the black person would have said oh hell no charlie
16:16kirk was wrong about that he shouldn't say anything like that but not tatum tatum said now what i said
16:24100 100 i would have been better off as a slave that's what it takes to be a person of
16:31color for trump
16:32yeah there's a difference don't get it twisted but before i end there the reason why you still get no
16:41love from me boosie is because there's still something called integrity that all of us have to agree on
16:50even someone who was at the capitol jay sixer knows that welcome back on his first day back in office
16:59president trump granted a pardon or clemency to more than 1500 people convicted of offenses related
17:05to the january 6 2021 capitol riot this includes our next guest but unlike others she turned down her
17:12pardon her name is pam hemphill and she joins me now pam it's great to have you with us thanks
17:16for
17:17joining me why did you turn it down why did you turn it down well because i don't want to
17:25be a part
17:25of trump's narrative that the doj is weaponized against him and all the j6ers because it's propaganda
17:32it's not true who wants to be a part of that narrative that's the difference all y'all celebrity
17:38trump turnovers whether it's for your friend whether it's for yourself for a pardon we can laugh
17:46i'm not making excuses but i'm putting it in context but the very the very truth is that you
17:54need to remember that i'll never give you grace for on this channel boosie badass kodak black
18:01unfortunately snoop many others cube nikki what you'll never get from me is the acceptance
18:09of your lack of integrity you can't buy that back not even for six hundred thousand dollars
18:17because either you're with us or against us and the time to fight is now hey yeah you before you
18:26click away to watch someone unbox a tactical toothbrush let's talk about something real
18:31political drain isn't just another content mill we're a digital front and a very real war not with
18:38bullets but with ideas with action and with solidarity we pair urgent news with critical education
18:45and we build community around actual resistance not the hashtag kind the kind that moves but here's
18:53the thing none of this is free it isn't behind every video is time labor research and some weird guy
19:02asking if we're gonna paint a hosting bill and yeah some of that money goes to things we can't
19:09necessarily say out loud if you know you know let's just say our special ops aren't call of duty larpers
19:16they're people making real moves to protect uplift and organize you're not just funding a channel
19:23you're funding a resistance network in a world where capital still calls the shots unfortunately in a
19:30system built on artificial scarcity even mutual aid has a price tag and if we want to grow if we
19:38want
19:38to win we need your help we need your help so if you've got even a few bucks to spare
19:44toss it our way
19:45it's not for ads it's not for merch drops but for people making moves in the shadows so others can
19:53do it in the light it's just us and you so fund the mission fund the fight fund the future
20:01because nobody's coming to save us we save each other that's how this works
