What’s up, everybody! Here are JETLAG RADIO 221 & BENKYO RADIO 221.

It’s finally here. Today is Election Day. After 4 long fucking years, here we are. We cannot take today for granted. Many of us have voted abstentee or early voting. For those of you who have yet to go vote, WHAT ARE YOU DOING, get off the couch, and go vote. Millions are stressed out, because of the direction of the country. Trump is NOT taking his job seriously. There are many people that I know of that do important work, and their work relies on a good night sleep. You have forced these people with sleep deprivation over the past 4 years. They have had to work extra hard. Many, since March 2020, since COVID, since the recession, are working without a paycheck. This is outrageous. If you want to relaunch the economy, you have to vote for Joe Biden. If you want Dr. Fauci to accelerate the important work needed to contain the virus during the winter, you need to vote for Joe Biden. If you want to gather the divide with the African-Americans, we need Kamala Harris as our Vice President. If you care about Women’s Rights, vote for Joe Biden. If you want some fucking sleep, vote for Joe Biden. If you ever to find a vaccine for COVID-19 by 2021 and administered to everyone by 2022, vote for Joe Biden. If you care about $15 minimum wage, vote for Joe Biden. If you care about Immigrant Rights, vote for Joe Biden. If you care about the Latino folks and their right for DACA and to a college education, vote for Joe Biden. If you care about our Military & Veterans, and want a real Commander-in-Chief who reads his security briefings, vote for Joe Biden. Don’t just vote Blue for President. Vote Blue all the way down. If you need help, go to your state’s Democrat website. In California, this is the website with the endorsements. It’s time to wake up. Over 200,000 people have died. If we do not elect Joe Biden, that number will be over 500,000 by February. This is a war crime. If this was any other country, the United Nations Security Council would call this a genocide. We need to vote for Joe Biden. Help us save America. She is worth it.

Until next time!
