Sharon Lettman-Hicks, the CEO of the National Black Justice Coalition (NBJC), is Andrew Gillum's co-defendant in the federal corruption case. The NBJC is an organization dedicated to Black LGBTQ equality, and the indictment alleges that campaign funds were funneled through her communications firm. The hosts find it suspicious that she lacks a Wikipedia page despite her significant role as a political "handler" and candidate for the Florida House.

In a 2010 interview, Sharon Lettman-Hicks praised the Obama administration for its "unbelievable" inclusion agenda for the LGBTQ movement. She highlighted the passage of the Hate Crimes Act and the repeal of "Don't Ask, Don't Tell" as significant gains. The discussion questions why a "Black Hate Crime Act" has not been passed despite recent tragedies, suggesting the LGBTQ agenda is prioritized over Black-specific issues.

Sharon Lettman-Hicks credits legendary Hollywood producer Norman Lear as her mentor, having worked for his organization, People for the American Way. Lear is described as a "propagandist" who founded the group to challenge the Christian Right and the Moral Majority. This connection explains the "stealth missile" strategy of using figures like Lettman-Hicks to make inroads into the Black church and shift its traditional stances.
