Welcome to Democracy-ish.

And I'm with Jahat Ali.

Um, waz, waz, waz, was, was, my dear friend, um, you decided, and, and folks, we are going to get into a lot of topics today.

We have a plethora of things to unpack because dear waz, you have the patience of I don't know what.

You said a Wally, a friend of God is what you say in Islam, because you decided,

and you'll tell the people to go on Pierce Morgan's show, which you had asked for advice,

should you do this show? And I said, if you can hold your shit together then by all means do it um you did that and

more and folks if you have not seen the clip it is up on uh uh washes uh whatever we call twitter

these days uh up on that but please tell people the context about why i'm so in awe uh you and know that I could never, which is why

people like you exist. So tell our audience what happened. So Pierce Morgan, if you all know,

he hasn't been obsessed with Megan Markle, but for the past month since Israel's war in Gaza,

he's actually invited a bunch of, quote, pro-Palestinian voices. He's got long-form debates,

and a lot of people are viewing him. So he's like, oh, this is great. I can do something that

U.S. media doesn't do. Talk to Palestinians and Muslims and Arabs and Jews who are against

the war in Gaza, and a lot of eyeballs are watching me.

So his producer has been trying to get me on for like two weeks.

And then finally the producer said, I think just a couple of days ago, hey, we'll have you on to do a 20-minute debate.

I don't want to mention the person because that person might come back next week.

So I said, okay, I'll prep for this debate.

Let's do it.

At the last second, they're like, oh, no debate.

Instead, we're going to have a panel.
