Sex trafficking plea deal unending 'nightmare' for Texas mom
"A Texas mother says she'll never stop fighting to get justice for her daughter, who was sex trafficked by two men who received probation under a plea deal she's questioning. For San Antonio mother erma Reyes. Like a nightmare that I can't wake up. In 2017, her teenage daughter was put in rehab for substance abuse, but she ran away in days later, advertised online as being available for dates with men. Two men were allegedly renting her and another girl out for sex. And taking half their money, the men were arrested, San Antonio detective, Manuel and Guiana says they had solid evidence from video receipts and cell phone data. I don't think I've ever worked a case that had more evidence or actually work done on it. After years of delays and changes in prosecutors, the two suspects pleaded no contest. And wound up being sentenced to 7 years probation. It's one of many sex trafficking cases in Texas under the office of attorney general Ken Paxton. Now, under scrutiny. I'm Jackie Quinn

Mexican president says Tesla to build plant in Mexico
"Mexico's president says Tesla has committed to building a plant in the industrial hub of Monterey in northern Mexico. President Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador said the promise came in phone calls he had Friday and Monday with Tesla head Elon Musk. It would be Tesla's third plant outside the U.S. after Shanghai and one near Berlin, Lopez Obrador had previously ruled out such a plant in the arid northern state of nuevo Leon because he didn't want water hungry factories in a region that suffers water shortages, but he said Musk's company had offered commitments to address those concerns, including using recycled water.

Robyn Pfaffman: Brian Kemp Activates National Guard Amid Protests
"Am here in Atlanta and that governor Brian Kemp Todd has called up a thousand members of the National Guard ahead of possible violence because we had violence here last weekend. Keeping the story very tight, we have a $90 million police training facility. Police and fire, by the way, training facility that is being built into cab county right on the Atlanta outskirt. Right on the border of Fulton and the cab in a forest area. And there was a protest there because there are people that despise the police and so there was a protester by the name of an activist by the name of Manuel turnip 26 years old who shot at a Georgia state patrol officer and then was shot and killed in this. And then a week ago last weekend, there were riots because that person is dead. The rioting for people that don't understand the landscape of this, the rioting was in downtown Atlanta by the Westin hotel, which is in the center of the city where people come and know Atlanta from the Olympics back in the 1996 and all of that and so you're talking about rioting in the downtown area where our hotels and stores and restaurants, but this police facility that they call cop city is easily a good 20, 30 minutes away from there. So again, it's outside agitators that are not totally upset with cop city and are choosing to take down the city over Atlanta in a more of a commercial district where they could really cause that much damage and in a forest Todd is that you can do in a city where there's glass and stuff to steal and setting police cars on fire.

"He's gonna do whatever the heck he feels like. He's a cast whoever he feels like. He's gonna buy whatever he feels like, and you can't stop him. And the reason why you can't stop him is because he did all this, he was rich before you never met him. Before Hollywood ever gave him a chance, his shows were already generating millions of dollars locally through the fans. Build the infrastructure and then these people in Hollywood can't dictate nothing to you. When they're like, we want to buy madea. They're like, no. You can fund some of it, but you ain't owning madea whether you like it. I'm just not giving it to you. I don't care what you offer me. I already make millions of dollars. That's the grind. You know, and Kevin Hart, he said, why the hell am I going to get less than 5% of a tour or 3% of a tour? A 300% of tourist proceeds, if I'm the fucking main attraction. If the tickets are being sold because of me, why do I get only 3% of the total amount of money everybody else is making money off of me? So how about I pay for everything? I hire everyone. I get the venues. I do the marketing, and then if I sell out, I keep freaking 80% of everything made. He went into massive millions and millions of dollars up front. You can't do that stuff after the show was already done. You got a book tours like half a year in advance. So he had to go real deep into the red before his first show. So that's power to me to make plays like that and just trust it. Say, I trust myself to make this happen. I believe my fans truly believe in what I'm doing. And I'm going to finally flip this industry. I'm not going to be an actor for the rest of my life..

"Still were hurt by what I was saying, the main thing was you probably were somebody that I didn't want to be in colleagues. I mean, ever worked with it in the first place because you're one of those people. So that was the hardest thing controlling that because you know, like I said, we probably have been the best independent publisher for three years now. Yet, we were never on a top ten indie black mangas or indie black comics you need to read, right? We never got any kind of accolades or something like that. Regardless of what the numbers said. They did take care. Did I get any research? You did Google black comic book. You'd find us. So how the hell did you avoid us? I'll tell you, you know, 'cause I've been doing this now with revision path for 9 years, and I share that frustration that you're talking about with, you put in all this work and you don't feel like sometimes everyone sort of recognizes that or gives you the credit that you feel you deserve for it. That's just, I mean, unfortunately, that's just the media. The media is always going to glom on to whatever, like, the newest thing is, whether you've been in, especially like if you've been doing this for a while and you have longevity, they really only care about the new stuff. They're like, what's the new thing that's coming out? What is it that is keeping you motivated to continue? I feel like I might know the answer to this question, but I'd love to hear from you. Where does this drive come from? I just want to see Rome burn. That's it. I just want to see Rome burn to the ground. I'm Hannibal at the Gates. I always think of that. Whenever I think of what my mission is, I'm not here to be successful. I'm not here to tell my great story. You know, people always try to make it so indifferent. Oh, I'm just trying to tell a great story. You know, I just want to be a creative person. I love this. I'm so humble. No, I want to see Rome burn to the ground. And that means we have to have absolute veto power and control over our own stories. It's the only way we'll ever be able to stop Hollywood from dictating what is acceptable black history. Because we don't need ten new black slave and civil rights stories a year. I don't need to see the new ways of lynching people. Like, oh man, I just needed to see that. I need to see a new way. Oh, we're about to do it. Emmett Till documentary. Yeah, I've definitely want to see him till die again. That would be great. Oh, you know what? You know what? This black history we're deciding, we're going to talk about the black Wall Street massacre. You ever going to do a whole series on the black Wall Street massacre. I said, how about do a series on black Wall Street before the massacre? How about that? You know, it was like it was like, we don't control the budget. We don't control the means. We don't control any of it. So if we don't take that control and show that we can actually do numbers with that control, then they will always be able to dictate what is acceptable and what isn't acceptable for black people to consume. And I'm tired of it. I want to see that entire infrastructure burns to the ground and the only way that's possible is if we dominate this space and be complete tyrants once we get there. Who are some of the people that influence you? There's three, right? I said this in a previous interview. There's three that influence me. I'd be surprised one of them was Kevin Hart, which was kind of ironic..

Be the top story. So that's what we're doing. We're lucky that we're still capable of doing that even though a lot of other Shark Tank companies don't have this kind of like follow up, right? They don't get on the big major shows or anything like that. So the fact that we are freaking huge for us, we're doing that before Kevin Hart says, man, black sand is like the best thing ever we're about to make billions, right? Right. Once he starts saying that publicly, that's what it really will start becoming like an unstoppable force. You know what I mean? Because you'll have that endorsement and then coming from him like that. A lot of other people are just going to check it out from there. Yeah, not just an endorsement, but big money people will start gravitating towards you. Done everything has to be made by us. Like black said is clearly going to be made by us. We want to control it and we want to own everything of it. But there's some titles that we just don't have the manpower for. But we don't want to stop these creators who are under our brand from having their own shows. So we might have more traditional deals out there for some other IPs in our company, which makes like three, four, 5, 6 different shows. All being under direct development at the same time. All because of Kevin Hart's heartbeat productions and everything else. So that's the crazy thing about it, right?.

We're going to put some patrons in the game. If you're active at this date, you'll be able to apply. And then people flood in. Because they want their opportunity to shine, or we're about to have voice acting for our thing. We're about to do some casting. It's going to start on January 1st. So if you're a patron on January 1st, you'll be able to apply, right? Don't even do no open casting. Just straight up only patriotic. Boom, hundreds of people sign up.

"Overwhelming majority, black consumers don't shop at comic book shop. They start with target. Or whatever. $10 book is normal to them. $20 hardcover is normal to them. I know you just said earlier, you were like, I don't go to comic shop. You avoid comic shops, and I would imagine part of that reason is because of what you just said, that's not where your target market is going to be. But then also, I would imagine talking to those comic shops that's probably what some other publishers would do just in terms of just trying to get their books on the shelves. Absolutely. That's their only way of knowing how to sell. That's the thing. They just don't know how to sell any other way. So they use the traditional means to sell. And the thing about it is you got to deal with pricing and stuff, right? Why should they buy black sands for $10 when they could buy a Black Panther for four? And I'm like, because Black Panther is not about history about that. But you know, they still, there's that preconceived notion of what the market is.

Of course that's that is so hard to beat Yes the he took part in the writing of whispering pines and sleeping name all of them. If you let me keep is one of the things i think is really undervalued. And i've talked about it a few times. But i definitely wanted to talk about more in the future and definitely. Maybe you can help me with this. But i think that the co we talk a lot about this era we talk a lot about co writers. We talk about the glimmer twins. In mick jagger and keith richards or lennon and mccartney see the two like huge ones but i think robbie richer is a very very underrated. Songwriting parent. They wrote a lot of great songs together. And i think obviously that should be celebrated more. But what's your opinion on kind of their strength. Their co writing. Obviously richard wrote a lot of song solo. He wrote some with bob And then you know robbie's obviously written a lot of songs as well how. How do you feel about their songwriting. Duo do you do you. Do you have as much passion for that. Do this i do. Yeah i pretty passionate about that. Do as as become clear in the interview. I have you know some some thoughts on robbie but there is no way you can deny his ability to songwriter and remember. Remember exactly what the vote was but he was talking about how it was whispering pines the he was able to kind of write like four richard like in his head. Think about you know how he sees things. He was able to write things. That really suited richard and so especially whenever. They're writing things together. Her that you kind of have robbie trying to come from richards perspective. Richard obviously his own perspective. That act comes together and some really really beautiful ways and the songs that they do together are just gorgeous. I mean they really are some of. I think the best the dan don as we kind go more on a macro level in terms of the band's albums and their performance stuff. What are some things that stand out to you. What what would you classify. Maybe as your favorite album or era or anything that you know. I feel like i'm gonna stay music from big pink. It's just so hard not to say that it's such a gorgeous album. of course one. I have a lot of of love for because of the way they brought needed. Beyond that of like you said earlier it just has so many different reds about it. You know they're twenty things going on but somehow it all comes together perfectly and even the way that like the tracks are like ordered on it is incredibly everything about is perfect and you can really just kinda slip into the magic of the time that it was being recorded. You've really feel that and it's probably my favorite album. Stagefright is a close second. But it's probably music thing. I hope a lot of the people that listen to the to the podcast Go on twitter. And follow along. I i know i shouted it a few times and a few folks that follow me definitely went over and i i will continue to Promote it but where where can were fans of the show here or fans of the band.
