The "super predator" rhetoric used by Hillary Clinton in the 1990s is compared to Joe Biden's 1993 floor speeches. Both politicians advocated for "taking back the streets" and bringing young offenders "to heel," a strategy designed to out-flank Republicans on crime issues regardless of the social cost.
The naming of Jay-Z's "Roc-A-Fella Records" is linked to the punitive Rockefeller Drug Laws of New York. The hosts find it hypocritical that Jay-Z and Beyonce campaigned for Hillary Clinton in 2016, given her past "super predator" rhetoric and the legislative history of the Democratic party. The segment characterizes the celebrity endorsement as a betrayal of the communities affected by those laws.
