We talk about the 4 00:00:13,880 --> 00:00:16,920 Speaker 1: oil prices going on out there because of the hit 5 00:00:17,040 --> 00:00:21,000 Speaker 1: against Iram, because uh, these tankers won't will not go 6 00:00:21,079 --> 00:00:26,520 Speaker 1: through the straits before moves. And President Trump has been 7 00:00:26,800 --> 00:00:30,080 Speaker 1: very very clear these people don't have a navy. I 8 00:00:30,120 --> 00:00:33,239 Speaker 1: don't know what's preventing you from doing so, but you 9 00:00:33,320 --> 00:00:36,080 Speaker 1: should be sending tankers through the straits of war moves 10 00:00:36,159 --> 00:00:40,800 Speaker 1: right now. Are you talking? Are you talking to CEOs 11 00:00:41,280 --> 00:00:45,240 Speaker 1: of various oil companies encouraging them to use this straight 12 00:00:45,320 --> 00:00:48,160 Speaker 1: up corp right they should? I think they should. 13 00:00:48,159 --> 00:00:49,159 Speaker 2: I think they should use. 14 00:00:51,600 --> 00:00:54,600 Speaker 1: You. Look, we cook out just about all of their 15 00:00:54,640 --> 00:00:59,400 Speaker 1: mind shifts, and one night we're up to vote number sixty. 16 00:00:59,440 --> 00:01:02,360 Speaker 1: I didn't really that big a navy. I would say 17 00:01:02,360 --> 00:01:06,000 Speaker 1: it was big and ineffective, But every one of the shifts, 18 00:01:06,000 --> 00:01:08,400 Speaker 1: just about all of the navy is gone at the 19 00:01:08,520 --> 00:01:13,479 Speaker 1: bottom of this game. But they still have launchers and 20 00:01:13,560 --> 00:01:16,160 Speaker 1: that's still creating issue. And it's why I have said 21 00:01:16,560 --> 00:01:19,200 Speaker 1: I am totally fine with the military escort. 22 00:01:21,959 --> 00:01:22,399 Speaker 2: Why not. 23 00:01:27,240 --> 00:01:32,480 Speaker 1: You have to get these people to believe that everything's 24 00:01:32,520 --> 00:01:34,039 Speaker 1: going to be all right, and you actually have to 25 00:01:34,080 --> 00:01:37,760 Speaker 1: provide the safety. That's part of the gig. Start the fight. 26 00:01:37,840 --> 00:01:41,039 Speaker 1: It's part of what you knew it was coming. Everybody 27 00:01:41,080 --> 00:01:44,319 Speaker 1: knew this was coming. Let's not be silly. The IAEA, 28 00:01:44,840 --> 00:01:48,200 Speaker 1: which is the International Energy Agency, thirty two member countries 29 00:01:48,240 --> 00:01:53,760 Speaker 1: agreeing to release four hundred million barrels of oil to 30 00:01:53,840 --> 00:01:57,320 Speaker 1: address the supply disruption, largest release of the stockpiles in 31 00:01:57,360 --> 00:02:00,160 Speaker 1: the history of the ia You're up North America to 32 00:02:00,240 --> 00:02:04,520 Speaker 1: Northeast Asia, Japan saying they're willing to release oil stock 33 00:02:04,920 --> 00:02:07,320 Speaker 1: piles as early as next week. 34 00:02:11,880 --> 00:02:12,680 Speaker 2: Well that is. 35 00:02:14,520 --> 00:02:17,760 Speaker 1: That is going to certainly change some things, not as 36 00:02:17,840 --> 00:02:22,440 Speaker 1: much as free flowing the straits befour moves. Then you 37 00:02:22,520 --> 00:02:26,000 Speaker 1: have news that Chubb, the insurance group, is going to 38 00:02:26,000 --> 00:02:28,520 Speaker 1: be the lead underwriter for an insurance program led by 39 00:02:28,520 --> 00:02:33,200 Speaker 1: the US Development Finance Corporation. And this is to say 40 00:02:33,240 --> 00:02:36,160 Speaker 1: two ships, Hey, we got you covered for losses. 41 00:02:36,840 --> 00:02:37,360 Speaker 2: Let's go. 42 00:02:38,880 --> 00:02:44,360 Speaker 1: Let's go send send the oil. So moves are being 43 00:02:44,400 --> 00:02:53,120 Speaker 1: made to get that oil flowing again. Then there is 44 00:02:55,080 --> 00:03:02,120 Speaker 1: the story out of CBS News News Investigations saying we 45 00:03:02,320 --> 00:03:08,160 Speaker 1: visited ground zero for hospice fraud. And you say to me, 46 00:03:08,760 --> 00:03:19,440 Speaker 1: hospice fraud. Yeah, that's Los Angeles, California. And they proceed 47 00:03:20,639 --> 00:03:27,600 Speaker 1: to share what it is they found about hospices in 48 00:03:27,680 --> 00:03:33,240 Speaker 1: one building, geographic clustering, lo pat an accounts, the billing, 49 00:03:35,120 --> 00:03:39,200 Speaker 1: and so let's go through some basics of what it 50 00:03:39,240 --> 00:03:45,920 Speaker 1: is they discovered. They discovered that they're about eighteen hundred 51 00:03:47,360 --> 00:03:51,480 Speaker 1: licensed hospices in Los Angeles County, California, more than six 52 00:03:51,600 --> 00:03:56,080 Speaker 1: times the national average based on the senior population. It's 53 00:03:56,200 --> 00:04:05,360 Speaker 1: a lot of hospices, possibly way too many. Then CBS 54 00:04:05,560 --> 00:04:09,760 Speaker 1: News discovered that of those eighteen hundred, forty two percent 55 00:04:09,880 --> 00:04:13,119 Speaker 1: or seven hundred and forty two of them still operate 56 00:04:13,880 --> 00:04:20,880 Speaker 1: throughout southern California, despite having multiple signs the state has 57 00:04:20,920 --> 00:04:24,479 Speaker 1: outlined as indicators of fraud. So they're seven hundred and 58 00:04:24,480 --> 00:04:28,520 Speaker 1: forty two. They are known to have some connection to fraud, 59 00:04:29,120 --> 00:04:34,040 Speaker 1: nearly five hundred of them operating within a three mile radius. 60 00:04:35,200 --> 00:04:37,840 Speaker 1: This three mile radius is in the San Fernando Valley, 61 00:04:38,200 --> 00:04:44,560 Speaker 1: so over the one oh one on the east side 62 00:04:44,680 --> 00:04:47,279 Speaker 1: of the four h five. This is an area known 63 00:04:47,279 --> 00:04:51,120 Speaker 1: as Van Nuys, So between the four oh five and 64 00:04:51,160 --> 00:04:54,320 Speaker 1: by the way I'm saying that. Right in California, it's 65 00:04:54,360 --> 00:04:57,000 Speaker 1: the four h five, the five, the one oh one. 66 00:04:57,080 --> 00:04:59,080 Speaker 1: Everywhere else it's four or five, five, one oh one. 67 00:04:59,720 --> 00:05:08,440 Speaker 1: There it's the Van nine has five hundred hospices. They 68 00:05:08,440 --> 00:05:11,760 Speaker 1: went a little further. There are one hundred and thirty 69 00:05:11,800 --> 00:05:18,920 Speaker 1: seven hospices operating along a street called Van Nuys Boulevard alone. 70 00:05:19,120 --> 00:05:23,279 Speaker 2: Now, I used to live in southern California. 71 00:05:23,880 --> 00:05:28,320 Speaker 1: I have driven down Van Nights Boulevard more than once 72 00:05:28,760 --> 00:05:30,320 Speaker 1: in my life. 73 00:05:30,520 --> 00:05:31,360 Speaker 2: I'm trying to. 74 00:05:31,320 --> 00:05:38,480 Speaker 1: Think of how what other kind of street I could 75 00:05:38,520 --> 00:05:42,279 Speaker 1: provide as kind of like a general indicator. So have 76 00:05:42,440 --> 00:05:46,039 Speaker 1: you ever taken Pennsylvania Avenue from the White House to 77 00:05:46,080 --> 00:05:52,640 Speaker 1: the Capitol. One hundred and thirty seven hospices one hundred 78 00:05:52,760 --> 00:05:59,600 Speaker 1: and thirty seven eighty nine are registered to a single building. 79 00:06:02,839 --> 00:06:06,400 Speaker 2: It's Minnesota all over again. Everybody knows it's fraud. 80 00:06:07,440 --> 00:06:12,200 Speaker 1: Everybody knows that it's fraud. Under the nose of Governor 81 00:06:12,680 --> 00:06:17,279 Speaker 1: Gavin Newsom, under the nose of Mayor Karen Bass, under 82 00:06:17,320 --> 00:06:23,840 Speaker 1: the nose of everybody, billions and billions of dollars Medicare, Medicaid, 83 00:06:25,279 --> 00:06:28,440 Speaker 1: home health services, hospice. 84 00:06:29,000 --> 00:06:30,719 Speaker 2: How much money are we spending. 85 00:06:33,000 --> 00:06:35,600 Speaker 1: I'm never gonna listen to anybody tell me about healthcare 86 00:06:35,680 --> 00:06:39,839 Speaker 1: numbers again until you remove all of this from the data. 87 00:06:39,920 --> 00:06:44,440 Speaker 1: Don't tell me about the cost of healthcare. Maybe we're 88 00:06:44,480 --> 00:06:48,120 Speaker 1: doing great once you take away the fraud, once you 89 00:06:48,200 --> 00:06:52,159 Speaker 1: take away the grift. 90 00:06:53,240 --> 00:06:56,360 Speaker 2: What could we be doing with this money? 91 00:06:57,040 --> 00:06:59,200 Speaker 1: If you had this money, would you ever have a 92 00:06:59,200 --> 00:07:00,000 Speaker 1: homeless veteran again? 93 00:07:00,920 --> 00:07:00,960 Speaker 2: No? 94 00:07:01,680 --> 00:07:05,000 Speaker 1: Could you pay all the student loan debt for every 95 00:07:05,080 --> 00:07:09,400 Speaker 1: nursing student in America? Yes, I'm in favor of both 96 00:07:09,440 --> 00:07:15,800 Speaker 1: of those things instead of this. Now, I'd rather just 97 00:07:15,840 --> 00:07:17,680 Speaker 1: the people being able to keep it. I'd rather pay 98 00:07:17,680 --> 00:07:19,560 Speaker 1: down the debt. But I am in favor of doing 99 00:07:19,600 --> 00:07:27,080 Speaker 1: the other things, not giving it to this fraud. That 100 00:07:27,240 --> 00:07:32,360 Speaker 1: story just now blowing up. And then there's the story 101 00:07:32,360 --> 00:07:38,920 Speaker 1: I said, jose and I have said this before about 102 00:07:38,920 --> 00:07:41,360 Speaker 1: your place of worship. I have said it to Jews people, 103 00:07:41,440 --> 00:07:46,000 Speaker 1: my people. I've said it to Christians who clearly understand 104 00:07:46,160 --> 00:07:48,920 Speaker 1: that you have to be prepared. You are a soft 105 00:07:48,960 --> 00:07:52,679 Speaker 1: target in your place of worship. Buy guns by Ammo 106 00:07:52,800 --> 00:07:55,960 Speaker 1: and get trained. And any rabbi that says you can't 107 00:07:55,960 --> 00:07:59,760 Speaker 1: carry a gun in the synagogue fire that rabbi or 108 00:08:00,120 --> 00:08:04,720 Speaker 1: wit because they ain't worth a damn. I would say 109 00:08:04,720 --> 00:08:09,440 Speaker 1: this to any rabbi anywhere. You carry a gun when 110 00:08:09,440 --> 00:08:13,640 Speaker 1: you're in services Friday night, Saturday morning, you have your 111 00:08:13,640 --> 00:08:17,400 Speaker 1: firearm ready to go, when you're in church. They're soft targets, 112 00:08:17,520 --> 00:08:20,640 Speaker 1: and they are indeed targets. You are out of your 113 00:08:20,960 --> 00:08:26,120 Speaker 1: head if you don't. And anybody who says otherwise, dismiss 114 00:08:26,200 --> 00:08:29,040 Speaker 1: those people as the little children that they are, because 115 00:08:29,080 --> 00:08:32,880 Speaker 1: they are one should be willing to protect themselves and 116 00:08:32,920 --> 00:08:39,000 Speaker 1: the ones they love. The story is in San Jose. 117 00:08:40,400 --> 00:08:49,400 Speaker 1: This is how it's reported. You had two people, as 118 00:08:49,480 --> 00:09:00,479 Speaker 1: reported Israeli Americans, and they're in front of a restaurant 119 00:09:01,600 --> 00:09:04,120 Speaker 1: San Jose's Santana Row. 120 00:09:06,679 --> 00:09:08,560 Speaker 2: I don't know what Santana row is. 121 00:09:10,960 --> 00:09:17,079 Speaker 1: And they're speaking to each other, but they're speaking in Hebrew, okay, 122 00:09:18,600 --> 00:09:23,920 Speaker 1: and then three guys attack them. Three guys walk up 123 00:09:23,920 --> 00:09:27,320 Speaker 1: to these two guys speaking Hebrew to each other, and 124 00:09:27,360 --> 00:09:31,400 Speaker 1: the three guys attack them. There are people outside, sitting 125 00:09:31,400 --> 00:09:34,160 Speaker 1: and eating and they all just watched. No one got 126 00:09:34,280 --> 00:09:38,600 Speaker 1: up to help. Now, some people physically wouldn't be able 127 00:09:38,640 --> 00:09:45,440 Speaker 1: to help. Some people are just losers. These guys then 128 00:09:45,800 --> 00:09:46,640 Speaker 1: ran off. 129 00:09:48,800 --> 00:09:49,079 Speaker 2: Now. 130 00:09:50,080 --> 00:09:53,760 Speaker 1: The San Jose Police said the detectives at this time 131 00:09:53,840 --> 00:09:58,040 Speaker 1: quote have not located evidence indicating the assault would meet 132 00:09:58,040 --> 00:10:01,840 Speaker 1: the elements of a hate crime. You know, I am 133 00:10:01,840 --> 00:10:04,400 Speaker 1: not a believer in hate crimes. I don't think a 134 00:10:04,480 --> 00:10:07,000 Speaker 1: crime is more of a crime because it happens to 135 00:10:07,040 --> 00:10:10,839 Speaker 1: this group or that group, or this characteristic etc. If 136 00:10:10,880 --> 00:10:13,559 Speaker 1: three guys attack two guys wherever it is, it is 137 00:10:13,600 --> 00:10:20,240 Speaker 1: a crime, and you need to find those people, and 138 00:10:20,280 --> 00:10:26,160 Speaker 1: you need to arrest those people. My point is, even 139 00:10:26,200 --> 00:10:28,760 Speaker 1: though I don't believe in hate crimes, I don't believe 140 00:10:28,800 --> 00:10:30,480 Speaker 1: a crime is more of a crime because it happens 141 00:10:30,480 --> 00:10:32,720 Speaker 1: to a certain group. I think that's really an ugly 142 00:10:32,840 --> 00:10:36,760 Speaker 1: thought that is different than whether or not things happen 143 00:10:36,880 --> 00:10:42,079 Speaker 1: to people in specific groups because of specific things. And 144 00:10:42,280 --> 00:10:45,320 Speaker 1: if Jews don't think they should walk down the street 145 00:10:45,600 --> 00:10:49,240 Speaker 1: being prepared to protect themselves and defend themselves as more 146 00:10:49,280 --> 00:10:51,760 Speaker 1: and more people are ginned up to the bigotry and 147 00:10:51,800 --> 00:10:55,880 Speaker 1: the anti Semitism, well then those Jews are stupid. And 148 00:10:55,920 --> 00:10:59,680 Speaker 1: I'm sick and tired of stupid. And I can't believe 149 00:11:00,320 --> 00:11:02,880 Speaker 1: using the word stupid considering I spent the vast majority 150 00:11:02,880 --> 00:11:05,520 Speaker 1: of my career, saying that the words stupid and dumb 151 00:11:05,679 --> 00:11:08,120 Speaker 1: end conversation. I try to avoid them with everything in me, 152 00:11:08,360 --> 00:11:10,560 Speaker 1: but at some moment one has to say, this is 153 00:11:10,679 --> 00:11:22,320 Speaker 1: just ridiculous for cocta crazy nuts. Start being prepared. People 154 00:11:22,360 --> 00:11:24,040 Speaker 1: think they could just attack you in the middle of 155 00:11:24,080 --> 00:11:28,800 Speaker 1: the streets because you're Jewish, well then you better be 156 00:11:28,880 --> 00:11:32,240 Speaker 1: prepared to do something about it and go get trained. 157 00:11:33,640 --> 00:11:35,560 Speaker 1: I am not guaranteeing safety. 158 00:11:35,640 --> 00:11:38,079 Speaker 2: If you have a firearm, I just want you to 159 00:11:38,120 --> 00:11:38,680 Speaker 2: have a chance. 160 00:11:39,080 --> 00:11:40,760 Speaker 1: And if you don't want to carry a firearm but 161 00:11:40,760 --> 00:11:42,720 Speaker 1: you want to carry something else, go right ahead. 162 00:11:43,440 --> 00:11:45,439 Speaker 2: You want to go get trained in krav magar or 163 00:11:45,559 --> 00:11:46,360 Speaker 2: jiu jitsu or. 164 00:11:46,280 --> 00:11:51,760 Speaker 1: Whatever, go right ahead.

If you have 167 00:12:01,960 --> 00:12:02,880 Speaker 2: a class of. 168 00:12:02,800 --> 00:12:06,680 Speaker 1: People, a group of people who have been told for 169 00:12:06,679 --> 00:12:10,880 Speaker 1: forever now that you because your political beliefs are a 170 00:12:10,880 --> 00:12:13,480 Speaker 1: threat to women and a threat to democracy and a 171 00:12:13,520 --> 00:12:20,920 Speaker 1: threat to freedom. Eventually people hear that enough and they 172 00:12:21,040 --> 00:12:23,400 Speaker 1: absolutely believe that they have to do something about it 173 00:12:23,720 --> 00:12:26,000 Speaker 1: because you're a threat, and they're allowed to protect themselves 174 00:12:26,000 --> 00:12:30,040 Speaker 1: from the threat. There's a group of people out there 175 00:12:30,080 --> 00:12:33,080 Speaker 1: on the left that believes punch a Nazi. Well, who's 176 00:12:33,080 --> 00:12:39,400 Speaker 1: a Nazi? Anybody I disagree with as a Nazi? Oh gosh. 177 00:12:39,480 --> 00:12:42,280 Speaker 1: They have internalized the violence. They believe in the violence, 178 00:12:42,280 --> 00:12:44,520 Speaker 1: and they think that violence against those they disagree with 179 00:12:44,920 --> 00:12:48,280 Speaker 1: is founded and warranted, and they feel pious about it. 180 00:12:49,120 --> 00:12:51,040 Speaker 1: And I think you should be prepared to fight against that. 181 00:12:53,600 --> 00:12:54,720 Speaker 2: Do we want the violence? 182 00:12:54,800 --> 00:12:57,880 Speaker 1: No? Do we have to stop supporting those things? Absolutely, 183 00:13:00,000 --> 00:13:02,400 Speaker 1: but really appreciate if the Democratic Party would do that. 184 00:13:05,160 --> 00:13:07,000 Speaker 1: But in all moments, you have to be prepared to 185 00:13:07,040 --> 00:13:13,640 Speaker 1: protect and defend yourself. So go get it done.
