    No federal employee, absolutely no one, wants a wall more than they want to feed their kids & pay their rent. He just makes this stuff up.

    This moment is STILL UNBELIEVABLE. And why Kelly largely stopped doing press.

    I’m proud of my friend for creating an historic docu-series. No one else could’ve made this piece.

    ~ says that R Kelly's crisis manager didn't want him to answer the question. But he wanted to answer: : Do you like teenage girls? R Kelly: "When you say teenage, how old are we talking?... I have some 19 year old friends, but nothing illegal."

    The R Kelly tape was a phantom. You heard about it and then you knew someone who had it but they wouldn’t give it up and then finally you found someone who gave it to you. I got a VHS tape from someone I worked with at MTV. That tape was pretty insane.

    Please listen in right now and RETWEET this! This very well could be the last show we hear from on KPFK. Jerry keeps us all updated and entertained it would be devastating to lose someone who contributes so much.

    This is what good journalists do: hide when they are shocked by the people they are interviewing. Otherwise those being interviewed will not reveal anything further.

    Got an email from right after he finished that interview. He told me Kelly’s answer to THE question. I couldn’t believe it. Touré called my office phone and repeated it. He really said that on camera? Yes Dré! Never thought people would support Kelly after that.

    “Do you like teenage girls?” is a softball question. I assumed Kels would say no. I had a follow up prepared in response to him saying no. But he didn’t say no. Not with his mouth nor with his face. Yes, I was shocked but I wanted him to not see that.

    During a 2008 interview with , R.Kelly was asked if he liked “teenage” girls. He replied, “how old are we talking?” And Touré had the most perplexed look on his face after that. The interview damn near paused after that. R.Kelly denied liking underage women.

    Even if that were true, no. A few hundred people coming to a nation of 350 million so they can work really hard in our fields and in the service industry for substandard wages, no that’s not a national emergency. At all. Stop watching Fox. It’s not news.
