He sat down for 8 00:00:18,480 --> 00:00:21,919 Speaker 2: thirty minutes with Ashley Savalla and one of the things 9 00:00:21,960 --> 00:00:25,160 Speaker 2: he was asked by Ashley Zavalla is how he would 10 00:00:25,239 --> 00:00:30,880 Speaker 2: grade the performance of current Governor Gavin Newsom. Spoiler alert, 11 00:00:31,120 --> 00:00:32,760 Speaker 2: He won't answer the question. 12 00:00:32,920 --> 00:00:35,440 Speaker 4: What grade would you give Governor Gavin Newsom for the 13 00:00:35,479 --> 00:00:36,560 Speaker 4: last two terms? 14 00:00:37,080 --> 00:00:40,879 Speaker 1: I don't know A through f I don't know. I 15 00:00:40,920 --> 00:00:43,920 Speaker 1: think that people have come to really appreciate how Gavin 16 00:00:43,920 --> 00:00:44,599 Speaker 1: has stood up here. 17 00:00:44,600 --> 00:00:45,800 Speaker 4: You won't give us a grade. 18 00:00:46,360 --> 00:00:47,200 Speaker 5: You won't grade him. 19 00:00:47,320 --> 00:00:50,279 Speaker 1: No, I haven't followed it closely enough to give him 20 00:00:50,320 --> 00:00:50,600 Speaker 1: a grade. 21 00:00:50,760 --> 00:00:55,080 Speaker 2: Okay, you haven't followed Gavin closely enough to give him 22 00:00:55,120 --> 00:00:58,000 Speaker 2: a grade, and you're running to replace him. 23 00:00:58,440 --> 00:01:02,760 Speaker 1: Okay. This is That's what doesn't make sense about Tom Steyer. 24 00:01:03,720 --> 00:01:07,400 Speaker 1: He's running as the no nonsense billionaire, the guy who 25 00:01:07,480 --> 00:01:10,919 Speaker 1: doesn't need money from anyone so he can shoot straight 26 00:01:10,959 --> 00:01:14,280 Speaker 1: with you and tell you the way it is. And 27 00:01:14,360 --> 00:01:18,640 Speaker 1: he is more evasive in answering questions than the professional politicians. 28 00:01:20,319 --> 00:01:23,040 Speaker 1: We had Antonio Viri Goosa on the show on Friday. 29 00:01:23,240 --> 00:01:27,839 Speaker 1: He answered every single one of the questions I asked him. 30 00:01:28,080 --> 00:01:31,800 Speaker 1: Spencer Pratt, first time candidate. We had him on the show. 31 00:01:32,040 --> 00:01:35,240 Speaker 1: I peppered did with questions for an hour. He answered 32 00:01:35,319 --> 00:01:36,880 Speaker 1: every question I asked him. 33 00:01:37,400 --> 00:01:39,639 Speaker 2: If I had the free time, I would put together 34 00:01:39,680 --> 00:01:43,559 Speaker 2: a compilation of the stier Ism, because the stier Ism, 35 00:01:43,640 --> 00:01:47,160 Speaker 2: it doesn't matter what the question is, he says, And 36 00:01:47,440 --> 00:01:50,320 Speaker 2: before he starts saying his non answer, he says, well 37 00:01:50,360 --> 00:01:52,720 Speaker 2: what I have said is and what I would say is, 38 00:01:52,760 --> 00:01:55,520 Speaker 2: and I say this and everything he says. Instead of 39 00:01:55,520 --> 00:01:58,520 Speaker 2: answering a question, he starts prefacing it with this is 40 00:01:58,560 --> 00:01:59,880 Speaker 2: what I have said about this. 41 00:02:01,280 --> 00:02:04,640 Speaker 1: It's so weird to me why a billionaire would want 42 00:02:04,640 --> 00:02:07,920 Speaker 1: this job in the first place. You have all the 43 00:02:07,920 --> 00:02:11,280 Speaker 1: money you could ever want, and you choose to do 44 00:02:11,360 --> 00:02:14,600 Speaker 1: this with your time. The only way I would do 45 00:02:14,720 --> 00:02:18,160 Speaker 1: that is if I felt that there were challenges facing 46 00:02:18,200 --> 00:02:22,519 Speaker 1: the state that the current crop candidates could not deal with, 47 00:02:23,160 --> 00:02:25,800 Speaker 1: and I was the only one who possessed the ability 48 00:02:26,320 --> 00:02:29,799 Speaker 1: to fix it so we can move on. But if 49 00:02:29,800 --> 00:02:34,800 Speaker 1: that's your motivation, you do shoot straight with people. You 50 00:02:34,919 --> 00:02:39,040 Speaker 1: do have to answer questions and deliver tough love at times, 51 00:02:40,639 --> 00:02:44,840 Speaker 1: but he seems totally unwilling to do that. And a 52 00:02:44,880 --> 00:02:47,320 Speaker 1: different point in the interview, and I'll grab the clip 53 00:02:47,360 --> 00:02:52,280 Speaker 1: for later, Ashley Zavala asked Tom Steyer, since you're a billionaire, 54 00:02:52,400 --> 00:02:55,600 Speaker 1: how can you relate to the troubles of the average Californian, 55 00:02:55,919 --> 00:03:08,600 Speaker 1: to which his response is, I'm really cheap. What a world. 56 00:03:08,840 --> 00:03:10,400 Speaker 3: We're a big ass crisis. 57 00:03:11,360 --> 00:03:14,360 Speaker 1: Eight hundred two two two five two two two is 58 00:03:14,480 --> 00:03:17,440 Speaker 1: telephone number? What eight hundred two two two of five 59 00:03:17,560 --> 00:03:22,760 Speaker 1: two two two Riverside County Sheriff and candidate for governor 60 00:03:22,800 --> 00:03:26,360 Speaker 1: here in the state of California, Chad Bianco is now 61 00:03:26,360 --> 00:03:28,600 Speaker 1: going at it with the Attorney General of the State 62 00:03:28,600 --> 00:03:30,520 Speaker 1: of California, Bob Bonta. 63 00:03:30,840 --> 00:03:33,480 Speaker 3: Bob Bonta, this is a weird one. 64 00:03:34,080 --> 00:03:37,600 Speaker 2: Chad Bianco says that there was some shenanigans with the 65 00:03:37,720 --> 00:03:41,640 Speaker 2: Prop fifty election in twenty twenty five, the election that 66 00:03:41,800 --> 00:03:44,120 Speaker 2: won in every county by a landslide. 67 00:03:46,280 --> 00:03:49,800 Speaker 1: Here's what I don't understand, is he saying that there 68 00:03:49,960 --> 00:03:54,280 Speaker 1: was more tampering than usual, or is he saying there's 69 00:03:54,360 --> 00:03:57,480 Speaker 1: tampering and I can point out just exactly where it was. 70 00:03:58,480 --> 00:04:02,200 Speaker 2: In my honest opinion, this is somebody who wants attention. 71 00:04:03,560 --> 00:04:06,600 Speaker 1: Well, that's usually what politicians are looking for. 72 00:04:06,600 --> 00:04:10,760 Speaker 2: For more on the battle between Bianco and Bobby Bob Bonta, 73 00:04:11,360 --> 00:04:12,840 Speaker 2: here is CBSLA. 74 00:04:13,240 --> 00:04:15,880 Speaker 1: This is CBSLA at four. 75 00:04:16,360 --> 00:04:18,360 Speaker 6: Right now at four thirty claims of fraud. 76 00:04:18,400 --> 00:04:19,480 Speaker 2: It wasn't at four. 77 00:04:22,200 --> 00:04:24,640 Speaker 6: Right now at four thirty claims of fraud during the 78 00:04:24,640 --> 00:04:28,960 Speaker 6: twenty twenty five election. The discrepancy now leading to an investigation. 79 00:04:29,160 --> 00:04:32,640 Speaker 7: Riverside County sheriff and candidate for governor, Chad Bionco is 80 00:04:32,680 --> 00:04:35,320 Speaker 7: accusing State Attorney General Rob Bonta. 81 00:04:35,640 --> 00:04:36,640 Speaker 2: That's not his name. 82 00:04:38,600 --> 00:04:41,240 Speaker 3: Can we correct that Bob Bonta. 83 00:04:42,080 --> 00:04:46,679 Speaker 7: Rob Bonta of interfering in an investigation into the twenty 84 00:04:46,720 --> 00:04:47,920 Speaker 7: twenty five special election. 85 00:04:48,120 --> 00:04:52,000 Speaker 6: As CBSLA Zach Boetto reports, Bianco says there are discrepancies 86 00:04:52,040 --> 00:04:55,599 Speaker 6: in the ballot count that Bonta says the investigation undermines 87 00:04:55,640 --> 00:04:58,080 Speaker 6: public confidence in state elections. 88 00:04:58,440 --> 00:04:59,320 Speaker 2: What confidence. 89 00:05:01,080 --> 00:05:04,000 Speaker 1: I don't know anyone outside of the people in Sacramento 90 00:05:04,040 --> 00:05:07,920 Speaker 1: who have confidence in the elections here, we. 91 00:05:07,920 --> 00:05:10,120 Speaker 2: Know that they're going to take about a month to process. 92 00:05:11,560 --> 00:05:14,760 Speaker 1: Well, if there's a Supreme Court ruling that says that 93 00:05:14,839 --> 00:05:20,280 Speaker 1: you cannot accept ballots after election day, that's going to change. 94 00:05:20,440 --> 00:05:23,560 Speaker 8: A ballot count clash at the center of an investigation 95 00:05:23,880 --> 00:05:28,400 Speaker 8: the Riverside Sheriff Chad Bianco claims state their Riverside Sheriff. 96 00:05:28,880 --> 00:05:32,599 Speaker 8: Their Riverside Sheriff Chad Bianco claims State Attorney General Rob 97 00:05:32,640 --> 00:05:35,440 Speaker 8: Bonta is interfering in this investigation. 98 00:05:35,520 --> 00:05:39,120 Speaker 9: Is simple physically count the ballots and compare that result 99 00:05:39,680 --> 00:05:41,320 Speaker 9: with the total votes reported. 100 00:05:41,839 --> 00:05:45,320 Speaker 2: But whatever this discrepancy is would not have changed the result, 101 00:05:45,440 --> 00:05:48,919 Speaker 2: not only statewide, but not including in Riverside County. So 102 00:05:49,200 --> 00:05:50,240 Speaker 2: what is this? 103 00:05:51,160 --> 00:05:54,360 Speaker 1: Here's what I think happens when you're talking about election fraud. Well, 104 00:05:54,360 --> 00:05:57,080 Speaker 1: there's a bunch of different kinds of election fraud. I 105 00:05:57,120 --> 00:06:01,479 Speaker 1: guess that can take place. But for example, at my 106 00:06:01,640 --> 00:06:04,719 Speaker 1: old house, I used to get the ballot for the 107 00:06:04,720 --> 00:06:08,400 Speaker 1: guy that lived there before me, and I used to 108 00:06:08,400 --> 00:06:12,160 Speaker 1: get the mail because I'm a registered Republican and whoever 109 00:06:12,200 --> 00:06:15,040 Speaker 1: it was that was there before me was a registered Democrat, 110 00:06:15,640 --> 00:06:18,000 Speaker 1: So I would get the mail for the Democrats, and 111 00:06:18,040 --> 00:06:21,800 Speaker 1: I would get the ballot for the guy. Now, I 112 00:06:21,839 --> 00:06:24,680 Speaker 1: don't believe that the guy died. I think that the 113 00:06:24,720 --> 00:06:28,040 Speaker 1: guy moved and he moved either some other part of 114 00:06:28,120 --> 00:06:33,479 Speaker 1: California or he moved to some other state, And I 115 00:06:33,600 --> 00:06:36,880 Speaker 1: assume since he was a registered voter here, that he 116 00:06:36,960 --> 00:06:39,720 Speaker 1: became a registered voter. Let's say he moved to Los 117 00:06:39,760 --> 00:06:44,560 Speaker 1: Angeles County and became a registered voter in Los Angeles County. 118 00:06:45,120 --> 00:06:48,919 Speaker 1: What I think probably happened is that LA County didn't 119 00:06:48,920 --> 00:06:53,320 Speaker 1: communicate with Riverside County and let them know that this 120 00:06:53,360 --> 00:06:57,080 Speaker 1: guy now gets his ballot in Los Angeles County, so 121 00:06:57,279 --> 00:07:02,520 Speaker 1: Riverside County kept sending his ballot to my house. If 122 00:07:02,560 --> 00:07:05,920 Speaker 1: I were unethical and I wanted my vote to count 123 00:07:05,960 --> 00:07:08,839 Speaker 1: for twice as much as it does, I could have 124 00:07:08,880 --> 00:07:12,080 Speaker 1: filled out his ballot and turned it in. Because there 125 00:07:12,080 --> 00:07:15,200 Speaker 1: are some instances where there are more votes than registered 126 00:07:15,280 --> 00:07:18,080 Speaker 1: voters in certain places and people go, well, how does 127 00:07:18,120 --> 00:07:22,320 Speaker 1: that happen? Well, my guess is it's a combination of 128 00:07:22,360 --> 00:07:26,200 Speaker 1: people moving to the area and filling out provisional ballots. 129 00:07:26,280 --> 00:07:29,520 Speaker 1: Let's say the population is going up and not down, 130 00:07:30,200 --> 00:07:33,760 Speaker 1: or situations like what happened to me. Only people are 131 00:07:33,840 --> 00:07:36,160 Speaker 1: unethical and they fill it out and turn it in. 132 00:07:36,760 --> 00:07:42,679 Speaker 1: Those votes should not count. One person, one ballot, one vote, 133 00:07:43,240 --> 00:07:46,960 Speaker 1: that's it. But if you move around a lot, you 134 00:07:47,040 --> 00:07:51,520 Speaker 1: could have one individual who's receiving any number of ballots. 135 00:07:51,600 --> 00:07:54,560 Speaker 1: Let's say you move from county to county in a 136 00:07:54,640 --> 00:07:58,360 Speaker 1: variety of counties in California, one person may be drawing 137 00:07:58,440 --> 00:08:00,000 Speaker 1: five ballots. That's possible. 138 00:08:02,240 --> 00:08:05,600 Speaker 8: In question to twenty twenty five special election for Prop 139 00:08:05,680 --> 00:08:09,920 Speaker 8: fifty regarding redistricting lines, a group of citizens, according to 140 00:08:09,960 --> 00:08:13,200 Speaker 8: the sheriff, discovered the Registrar of Voters hand counted just 141 00:08:13,280 --> 00:08:17,040 Speaker 8: over six hundred eleven thousand ballots, but forty five thousand 142 00:08:17,160 --> 00:08:20,760 Speaker 8: more votes were actually reported and certified to this Secretary 143 00:08:20,760 --> 00:08:24,040 Speaker 8: of State, prompting the sheriff to start his own investigation. 144 00:08:24,560 --> 00:08:28,239 Speaker 8: Ag Bonta in a statement saying, the investigation quote sets 145 00:08:28,280 --> 00:08:32,200 Speaker 8: a dangerous precedent and will only so distrust in our elections. 146 00:08:32,520 --> 00:08:34,480 Speaker 9: That is absolutely ridiculous. 147 00:08:34,840 --> 00:08:39,400 Speaker 1: Shanghy, can we have an assist that. 148 00:08:39,400 --> 00:08:41,319 Speaker 9: Is absolutely ridiculous? 149 00:08:41,559 --> 00:08:42,160 Speaker 2: I miss you? 150 00:08:43,120 --> 00:08:43,680 Speaker 1: What does so. 151 00:08:43,840 --> 00:08:47,360 Speaker 9: Mistrust in our system? Is failing to conduct an investigation? 152 00:08:47,520 --> 00:08:50,320 Speaker 2: Ag Bonta's team sent to give it what would be 153 00:08:50,480 --> 00:08:54,800 Speaker 2: the outcome of this investigation. Because that thing wanted a landslide. 154 00:08:54,920 --> 00:08:57,640 Speaker 1: You'd be able to throw out certain ballots, you wouldn't 155 00:08:57,640 --> 00:09:01,280 Speaker 1: be able to alter the result. And we should figure 156 00:09:01,320 --> 00:09:04,880 Speaker 1: out who's sending in illegal ballots and do something about it. Now. 157 00:09:04,920 --> 00:09:06,600 Speaker 1: One of the things that I think that we should 158 00:09:06,640 --> 00:09:12,080 Speaker 1: do immediately is you shouldn't get an absentee ballot in 159 00:09:12,160 --> 00:09:16,440 Speaker 1: the mail every single time. That results in tons of 160 00:09:16,480 --> 00:09:19,520 Speaker 1: ballots floating all over the place. When I lived in 161 00:09:19,520 --> 00:09:22,760 Speaker 1: an apartment building in Los Angeles County, there used to 162 00:09:22,840 --> 00:09:25,559 Speaker 1: be a stack of ballots from people who don't live 163 00:09:25,600 --> 00:09:28,760 Speaker 1: there anymore on top of the mail box, and then 164 00:09:28,840 --> 00:09:31,560 Speaker 1: one day they would just disappear, and I have no 165 00:09:31,640 --> 00:09:35,160 Speaker 1: clue where they went. In the old days, you used 166 00:09:35,200 --> 00:09:39,480 Speaker 1: to have to request an absentee ballot for every single election. Well, 167 00:09:39,520 --> 00:09:42,280 Speaker 1: if you moved, you're not going to request an absentee 168 00:09:42,320 --> 00:09:44,160 Speaker 1: ballot because you're not going to be there to fill 169 00:09:44,160 --> 00:09:47,240 Speaker 1: out the form. I don't understand why we can't do 170 00:09:47,320 --> 00:09:47,840 Speaker 1: that again. 171 00:09:49,360 --> 00:09:52,720 Speaker 8: Ag Bonta's team sent us these three letters showing Bonto's 172 00:09:52,720 --> 00:09:55,880 Speaker 8: attempts to reach out to Bianco. The letter from February 173 00:09:55,880 --> 00:09:59,040 Speaker 8: twenty sixth shows the AG requesting copies of the court 174 00:09:59,080 --> 00:10:02,480 Speaker 8: documents and asking the sheriff to pause the investigation to 175 00:10:02,559 --> 00:10:05,280 Speaker 8: better understand the basis for the search. But the sheriff 176 00:10:05,360 --> 00:10:06,800 Speaker 8: calling this request. 177 00:10:06,440 --> 00:10:09,960 Speaker 2: To me, I do like that what Bobby likes to 178 00:10:10,000 --> 00:10:14,440 Speaker 2: do here, Mister Bonta is instead of going after the 179 00:10:14,559 --> 00:10:18,439 Speaker 2: rampant fraud that's being uncovered by local journalists and even 180 00:10:18,520 --> 00:10:22,800 Speaker 2: citizen journalists, he wants to squash an investigation into a 181 00:10:22,840 --> 00:10:26,439 Speaker 2: different kind of fraud that's happening from California law enforcement. 182 00:10:27,520 --> 00:10:30,360 Speaker 1: Well, just think about who we're dealing with here. We're 183 00:10:30,400 --> 00:10:34,240 Speaker 1: dealing with Bob Bonta, who is a product of the Dongs. 184 00:10:35,280 --> 00:10:38,360 Speaker 1: This guy is dirty. He has been dirty since he 185 00:10:38,400 --> 00:10:42,080 Speaker 1: began his political career, and now we gave him a 186 00:10:42,120 --> 00:10:44,800 Speaker 1: badge and we put him in charge of the California 187 00:10:44,880 --> 00:10:48,680 Speaker 1: Department of Justice. He's not looking out for justice, he's 188 00:10:48,720 --> 00:10:52,280 Speaker 1: not looking out for the law. He's looking out for himself. 189 00:10:53,160 --> 00:10:55,480 Speaker 2: Well, and you know what this reminds me of when 190 00:10:55,520 --> 00:10:58,800 Speaker 2: you talk about a sheriff and you talk about Bonta 191 00:10:58,960 --> 00:11:03,920 Speaker 2: quashing an investigtation. Remember when Louis Anderson's house got raided 192 00:11:03,960 --> 00:11:08,600 Speaker 2: the former La County supervisor. Oh yeah, and there was 193 00:11:08,679 --> 00:11:13,240 Speaker 2: all of this alleged fraud that happened between Sheila Kule 194 00:11:13,800 --> 00:11:17,800 Speaker 2: and her buddy Patty Giggins in a nonprofit that was 195 00:11:17,800 --> 00:11:20,800 Speaker 2: getting a massive contract from La Metro to set up 196 00:11:20,840 --> 00:11:24,880 Speaker 2: a six harassment hot line. Well, that investigation got taken 197 00:11:24,920 --> 00:11:27,839 Speaker 2: over by Banta and then just disappeared. 198 00:11:28,600 --> 00:11:31,480 Speaker 1: Well, listen to this. This is something that's very common. 199 00:11:32,559 --> 00:11:36,640 Speaker 1: In my assembly district. We have an Assemblyman by the 200 00:11:36,720 --> 00:11:39,520 Speaker 1: name of Greg Wallace who happens to be a Republican. 201 00:11:39,960 --> 00:11:42,320 Speaker 1: This is one of the few purple districts that exists 202 00:11:42,360 --> 00:11:45,800 Speaker 1: in California. A Democrat could win it, a Republican could 203 00:11:45,840 --> 00:11:49,480 Speaker 1: win it. And there was a Palm Spring City councilwoman, 204 00:11:49,679 --> 00:11:52,880 Speaker 1: a Democrat by the name of Christy Holstage, who was 205 00:11:52,960 --> 00:11:57,600 Speaker 1: running against him, and she did not live in her district. 206 00:11:58,040 --> 00:12:00,440 Speaker 1: She was a member of the council. They broke the 207 00:12:00,440 --> 00:12:03,680 Speaker 1: council up by districts, and she was not living in 208 00:12:03,720 --> 00:12:06,400 Speaker 1: her district. She was not legally allowed to be a 209 00:12:06,440 --> 00:12:09,880 Speaker 1: member of that city council. How do we know this 210 00:12:10,320 --> 00:12:13,880 Speaker 1: because the house that she claimed was her residence was 211 00:12:14,000 --> 00:12:17,160 Speaker 1: on one of the Airbnb sorts of websites. She was 212 00:12:17,200 --> 00:12:19,680 Speaker 1: renting it out as a short term rental, and she 213 00:12:19,760 --> 00:12:21,920 Speaker 1: had a much bigger house and a different part of 214 00:12:22,000 --> 00:12:25,400 Speaker 1: town that she was actually living in. You can't do that. 215 00:12:26,280 --> 00:12:29,000 Speaker 1: If you represent a district, you have to live there, 216 00:12:29,600 --> 00:12:31,439 Speaker 1: and if the house that you claim to live in 217 00:12:31,640 --> 00:12:35,439 Speaker 1: is a short term rental, you don't live there. And 218 00:12:35,480 --> 00:12:39,320 Speaker 1: so in Riverside County, it wasn't Bianco that was pursuing it. 219 00:12:39,320 --> 00:12:42,320 Speaker 1: It was the district attorney, Mike Estron, and he had 220 00:12:42,320 --> 00:12:47,240 Speaker 1: her dead to rights and Bob Bonta comes in and goes, 221 00:12:47,679 --> 00:12:51,760 Speaker 1: this is interesting information. The California Department of Justice will 222 00:12:51,800 --> 00:12:55,840 Speaker 1: be taking over this investigation. And then it just went away. 223 00:12:55,920 --> 00:13:00,360 Speaker 1: He decided not to pursue it. Bob Bonta, that's what 224 00:13:00,440 --> 00:13:03,920 Speaker 1: he does. He makes it seem like they're going to 225 00:13:04,080 --> 00:13:06,559 Speaker 1: investigate it further and he's going to make sure that 226 00:13:06,800 --> 00:13:10,559 Speaker 1: justice takes place, and then he just kills it because 227 00:13:10,679 --> 00:13:15,640 Speaker 1: his objective is political. It's not as a law enforcement officer. 228 00:13:16,400 --> 00:13:18,800 Speaker 8: To better understand the basis for the search. But the 229 00:13:18,840 --> 00:13:22,959 Speaker 8: sheriff calling this request to pause interference. 230 00:13:22,440 --> 00:13:28,240 Speaker 9: The outrage that an investigation was happening was extremely concerning. 231 00:13:28,320 --> 00:13:28,560 Speaker 10: To me. 232 00:13:28,880 --> 00:13:32,040 Speaker 8: In a statement, A. G. Bonta says, quote Sheriff Bianco's 233 00:13:32,040 --> 00:13:35,920 Speaker 8: investigation is unprecedented in both scope and scale and appears 234 00:13:35,960 --> 00:13:38,160 Speaker 8: not to be based on facts or evidence, but on 235 00:13:38,320 --> 00:13:41,600 Speaker 8: unfounded allegations that have already been refuted by the Riverside 236 00:13:41,600 --> 00:13:45,760 Speaker 8: Registrar of Voters after getting the ballots through a warrant. Thursday, 237 00:13:45,800 --> 00:13:49,520 Speaker 8: a judge ruling Bianco's department must pause the recounts it's 238 00:13:49,600 --> 00:13:53,320 Speaker 8: already started and restart with a special master watching over. 239 00:13:53,600 --> 00:13:56,480 Speaker 8: While the recount won't count toward the election results for 240 00:13:56,520 --> 00:13:57,959 Speaker 8: Prov fifty, we've. 241 00:13:57,720 --> 00:14:00,920 Speaker 2: Ever recounting an election that was won in a land slide. 242 00:14:01,160 --> 00:14:04,800 Speaker 8: No, that's pointless, which passed in Riverside County with fifty 243 00:14:04,840 --> 00:14:07,160 Speaker 8: six point three percent of the vote. The Riverside County 244 00:14:07,200 --> 00:14:10,440 Speaker 8: Register our Voters saying it will continue to comply with 245 00:14:10,559 --> 00:14:11,880 Speaker 8: all lawful courts. 246 00:14:12,120 --> 00:14:15,040 Speaker 2: So there you go. That's what's going on with this 247 00:14:15,200 --> 00:14:18,280 Speaker 2: battle between Bonta and Bianco. And at least I think 248 00:14:18,320 --> 00:14:20,280 Speaker 2: two things can be true at the same time. One 249 00:14:20,800 --> 00:14:23,560 Speaker 2: Bonta likes to quash any kind of investigation that can 250 00:14:23,560 --> 00:14:27,160 Speaker 2: make his friends look bad, and two Bianco's looking for 251 00:14:27,240 --> 00:14:30,239 Speaker 2: some earned media. 252 00:14:29,120 --> 00:14:32,600 Speaker 1: Yeah, I think both things probably are true. But this 253 00:14:32,800 --> 00:14:36,240 Speaker 1: is part and parcel how Bob Bonta runs that office, 254 00:14:36,320 --> 00:14:39,200 Speaker 1: and it just goes to show you how you need 255 00:14:39,240 --> 00:14:42,880 Speaker 1: someone honest and ethical in that office because there is 256 00:14:43,000 --> 00:14:45,280 Speaker 1: voter fraud that goes on in the state. Look at 257 00:14:45,280 --> 00:14:47,720 Speaker 1: what we talked about last week where the homeless people 258 00:14:48,160 --> 00:14:53,080 Speaker 1: were being paid to impersonate registered voters and sign petitions 259 00:14:53,440 --> 00:14:57,360 Speaker 1: to get initiatives on the ballot. That happened on tape 260 00:14:57,800 --> 00:15:02,880 Speaker 1: that is irrefutable. Where was That's Bob Bonta. He's asking 261 00:15:02,920 --> 00:15:05,440 Speaker 1: for all of the information so that way they can 262 00:15:05,440 --> 00:15:09,080 Speaker 1: make it go away instead of having someone in that 263 00:15:09,240 --> 00:15:14,280 Speaker 1: office doing the job. What he's doing is he's using 264 00:15:14,280 --> 00:15:18,240 Speaker 1: that office for political purposes to try to I guess, 265 00:15:18,360 --> 00:15:21,120 Speaker 1: launch him into the governor's mansion or a US Senate 266 00:15:21,160 --> 00:15:24,480 Speaker 1: seat or something bigger than where he's at right now. 267 00:15:25,600 --> 00:15:28,840 Speaker 1: And also, because it's Bob Bonta, he needs to take 268 00:15:28,880 --> 00:15:30,200 Speaker 1: care of his benefactors. 269 00:15:31,400 --> 00:15:33,880 Speaker 3: Bob Bonta always. 270 00:15:33,520 --> 00:15:36,720 Speaker 1: Part of the deal with him. Eight hundred two two 271 00:15:36,760 --> 00:15:40,040 Speaker 1: two five two two two is a telephone number one 272 00:15:40,120 --> 00:15:43,400 Speaker 1: eight hundred two two two five two two two if 273 00:15:43,400 --> 00:15:45,320 Speaker 1: you'd like to email the show you can do so 274 00:15:45,360 --> 00:15:48,560 Speaker 1: at Johnny don't Like show at gmail dot com.

You can also do a 292 00:16:37,920 --> 00:16:39,000 Speaker 2: Google on the YouTube. 293 00:16:40,000 --> 00:16:41,200 Speaker 1: On YouTube, you can. 294 00:16:41,080 --> 00:16:43,640 Speaker 2: Get the free KABC app, you can get the free 295 00:16:43,720 --> 00:16:46,800 Speaker 2: KSFO app, you can get the free KMJ now app. 296 00:16:46,800 --> 00:16:49,680 Speaker 2: Because we're on that station Saturdays at noon.

Let's get those numbers up, everybody. 299 00:16:58,760 --> 00:17:01,320 Speaker 1: Let's go to Scott and Holly would Scott, Hello. 300 00:17:04,160 --> 00:17:08,200 Speaker 11: Hi, John, Hi Randy. Regarding the I hate to add 301 00:17:08,320 --> 00:17:11,920 Speaker 11: salt to the ballot broad wound, but it's worse than 302 00:17:11,960 --> 00:17:17,800 Speaker 11: people think, because anybody living in some other state can 303 00:17:17,920 --> 00:17:22,520 Speaker 11: use a safehouse here in Los Angeles to register, and 304 00:17:22,560 --> 00:17:24,880 Speaker 11: the person that lives in that safe house can sign 305 00:17:24,960 --> 00:17:29,639 Speaker 11: the ballot for him. On top of that, there is 306 00:17:29,720 --> 00:17:36,280 Speaker 11: no national database to show that a person voted in 307 00:17:36,400 --> 00:17:40,960 Speaker 11: multiple jurisdictions. So if you vote in Tennessee and you 308 00:17:41,040 --> 00:17:46,520 Speaker 11: vote in California, there's no national database to show that. Worse, 309 00:17:47,920 --> 00:17:53,000 Speaker 11: the signature verification machine in Los Angeles County is set 310 00:17:53,040 --> 00:17:58,680 Speaker 11: to the most liberal setting. Registrars throughout the counties of California, 311 00:17:59,760 --> 00:18:02,960 Speaker 11: there there's no uniformity on One county might have a 312 00:18:02,960 --> 00:18:08,199 Speaker 11: stricter setting, then Los Angeles and Los Angeles has the 313 00:18:08,320 --> 00:18:13,400 Speaker 11: least amount of UH of scrutiny on these on the pat. 314 00:18:13,600 --> 00:18:16,280 Speaker 1: Let me tell you something. When I was in graduate school, 315 00:18:16,960 --> 00:18:21,040 Speaker 1: there were journal articles that we would read about confidence 316 00:18:21,080 --> 00:18:24,080 Speaker 1: in the voting system. At that time, only one state 317 00:18:24,160 --> 00:18:27,920 Speaker 1: voted all by mail. It was organ and the voters 318 00:18:27,920 --> 00:18:30,960 Speaker 1: in Oregon had the least confidence in clean elections in 319 00:18:31,040 --> 00:18:34,959 Speaker 1: all fifty states. And now we've exported it bad news. 320 00:18:35,560 --> 00:18:38,679 Speaker 1: Eight hundred two two two five two two two is 321 00:18:38,680 --> 00:18:42,120 Speaker 1: the telephone number one eight hundred two two two five 322 00:18:42,200 --> 00:18:44,920 Speaker 1: two two two.

He explains he hopes to invest 385 00:22:11,240 --> 00:22:14,119 Speaker 4: in children when it comes to education, among other things. 386 00:22:14,520 --> 00:22:15,919 Speaker 2: Boy, I never heard that one before. 387 00:22:16,359 --> 00:22:19,600 Speaker 1: Now, wait a minute, If he was the Secretary of 388 00:22:19,680 --> 00:22:23,840 Speaker 1: Health and Human Services and that is a public health disaster, 389 00:22:24,800 --> 00:22:27,359 Speaker 1: why didn't he do anything about it when he was 390 00:22:27,400 --> 00:22:27,960 Speaker 1: in office? 391 00:22:28,720 --> 00:22:30,600 Speaker 2: Good question. Well, I don't know if that would be 392 00:22:30,640 --> 00:22:33,439 Speaker 2: under the purview of AJJS or that would be the 393 00:22:33,480 --> 00:22:37,359 Speaker 2: purview of the EPA. I don't know. But the federal 394 00:22:37,400 --> 00:22:42,119 Speaker 2: government under Republican and Democrat administrations have ignored this, and 395 00:22:42,160 --> 00:22:44,600 Speaker 2: the state of California has ignored this. 396 00:22:45,400 --> 00:22:49,400 Speaker 1: Now here's the way I see it. If you are 397 00:22:49,560 --> 00:22:54,160 Speaker 1: dumping the sewage directly into the river, that's an EPA 398 00:22:54,320 --> 00:22:58,640 Speaker 1: issue because you're polluting the river. But if people are 399 00:22:58,680 --> 00:23:02,679 Speaker 1: getting sick because of the pollution, that's a Department of 400 00:23:02,720 --> 00:23:05,960 Speaker 1: Health and Human Services issue because you have to deal 401 00:23:06,040 --> 00:23:08,440 Speaker 1: with the people who now have the illness. 402 00:23:09,840 --> 00:23:11,840 Speaker 2: So do you think in LA we should send a 403 00:23:11,880 --> 00:23:15,440 Speaker 2: special envoy down to San Diego? Our director of Public Health. 404 00:23:16,680 --> 00:23:19,080 Speaker 1: Oh, I would love to send that woman down to 405 00:23:19,160 --> 00:23:20,920 Speaker 1: that river with nothing but a snorkel. 406 00:23:22,480 --> 00:23:25,520 Speaker 2: And you know, Babs, they need you down at the 407 00:23:25,520 --> 00:23:26,720 Speaker 2: Tijuana River Valley. 408 00:23:27,640 --> 00:23:31,240 Speaker 1: Maybe I'd give her a jet ski. We spend so. 409 00:23:31,280 --> 00:23:34,439 Speaker 10: Much money trying to remediate Frederick Douglas one hundred and 410 00:23:34,440 --> 00:23:35,360 Speaker 10: sixty years ago. 411 00:23:35,200 --> 00:23:38,000 Speaker 1: Said it just as well. It is easier to build 412 00:23:38,040 --> 00:23:42,399 Speaker 1: strong children than to repair broken men. We spend millions. 413 00:23:42,560 --> 00:23:45,000 Speaker 2: Regie, I wonder why his campaign's not catching fire. 414 00:23:46,320 --> 00:23:47,639 Speaker 1: Well, he forgot to scrub it. 415 00:23:48,560 --> 00:23:52,520 Speaker 10: We spend millions repairing broken men and women rather than 416 00:23:52,560 --> 00:23:54,240 Speaker 10: building them to be strong for the beginning. 417 00:23:54,359 --> 00:23:56,880 Speaker 4: He also touched on healthcare, standing up to the Trump 418 00:23:56,960 --> 00:24:00,359 Speaker 4: administration when needed, and that you want a sewage crisis. 419 00:24:01,400 --> 00:24:03,119 Speaker 2: So when I was a place, do you don't need 420 00:24:03,160 --> 00:24:04,720 Speaker 2: to have the sound of the water running when I 421 00:24:04,760 --> 00:24:05,639 Speaker 2: know what's in that water? 422 00:24:06,359 --> 00:24:11,800 Speaker 1: Oh my, Katie, you can smell right.

It was 502 00:28:41,080 --> 00:28:44,000 Speaker 2: his sit down with Julie Watts and he was the 503 00:28:44,040 --> 00:28:47,400 Speaker 2: only person that she sat down with that had zero 504 00:28:47,560 --> 00:28:51,880 Speaker 2: things to say criticizing the current governor. He thinks that 505 00:28:51,960 --> 00:28:54,680 Speaker 2: Gavin Newsom is like Mary Poppins and just perfect in 506 00:28:54,720 --> 00:28:55,280 Speaker 2: every way. 507 00:28:58,200 --> 00:29:01,600 Speaker 4: He says the decades long issue shouldn't be ignored, adding 508 00:29:01,640 --> 00:29:03,680 Speaker 4: it's time to call a public health emergency. 509 00:29:03,800 --> 00:29:05,880 Speaker 5: We have lots of billionaires who live here. But if 510 00:29:05,920 --> 00:29:08,320 Speaker 5: this were, you know, kind of a rich white enclave, 511 00:29:08,400 --> 00:29:10,080 Speaker 5: I think attention would have been painted this much. 512 00:29:10,400 --> 00:29:17,600 Speaker 1: Oh, don't even make this racial, because Mexico was at 513 00:29:17,600 --> 00:29:22,600 Speaker 1: fault for that river being polluted. Correct, yes, okay, so 514 00:29:22,720 --> 00:29:26,960 Speaker 1: don't blame it on the green goll lady, you. 515 00:29:26,920 --> 00:29:29,400 Speaker 5: Know, kind of a rich white enclave. I think attention 516 00:29:29,440 --> 00:29:31,200 Speaker 5: would have been painted this much a long time ago. 517 00:29:31,360 --> 00:29:33,680 Speaker 2: She's also I think her point is that if this 518 00:29:33,840 --> 00:29:37,080 Speaker 2: was the Monacito River, it would have been cleaned up already. 519 00:29:37,960 --> 00:29:42,240 Speaker 1: Well, if Mexico is polluting the river, don't blame the whites. 520 00:29:42,480 --> 00:29:46,920 Speaker 1: They had nothing to do with this a long time ago. 521 00:29:47,080 --> 00:29:50,080 Speaker 4: She's also running on issues such as healthcare, education, and 522 00:29:50,160 --> 00:29:52,880 Speaker 4: climate change. But Sarah and y are two of eight 523 00:29:52,960 --> 00:29:56,440 Speaker 4: Democrats running for the seat.

Can you 529 00:30:15,360 --> 00:30:19,160 Speaker 1: imagine doing that with any other group? How ridiculous that 530 00:30:19,160 --> 00:30:23,320 Speaker 1: would look. So, you know, former Controller Gee, this is 531 00:30:23,440 --> 00:30:27,160 Speaker 1: very polluted down here at the Tiawana River.

Hey, John and Randy John, you just 542 00:31:08,120 --> 00:31:11,040 Speaker 1: said that you'd like to send Barbara Ferrer to the 543 00:31:11,120 --> 00:31:14,800 Speaker 1: river with just a snorkele. Give that plan a second thought. 544 00:31:15,600 --> 00:31:17,720 Speaker 1: She'd really pollute that thing even worse. 545 00:31:18,000 --> 00:31:20,000 Speaker 7: The evidence is like crystal clear on that. 546 00:31:20,680 --> 00:31:22,840 Speaker 1: Well, just imagine if she went for a swim in 547 00:31:22,840 --> 00:31:25,920 Speaker 1: that river. What do you think she'd look like with 548 00:31:26,000 --> 00:31:26,840 Speaker 1: a third eye. 549 00:31:27,320 --> 00:31:32,320 Speaker 2: I have a hard time understanding, Babs. They need you 550 00:31:32,400 --> 00:31:36,080 Speaker 2: down at the Tijuana River. It's a public health emergency. 551 00:31:37,040 --> 00:31:38,200 Speaker 1: You think she'd wear a mask. 552 00:31:39,240 --> 00:31:41,840 Speaker 2: But at the end of the day, Well, the only 553 00:31:41,880 --> 00:31:44,280 Speaker 2: way that you're going to really be able to understand 554 00:31:44,360 --> 00:31:47,080 Speaker 2: just how toxic it is is you got to put 555 00:31:47,080 --> 00:31:47,920 Speaker 2: the face in there. 556 00:31:51,320 --> 00:31:54,360 Speaker 1: But in theory, you need to bring the face out 557 00:31:54,400 --> 00:31:58,840 Speaker 1: of there. Yes, no, thank you, and then you'd have 558 00:31:58,880 --> 00:32:04,320 Speaker 1: to immediately go to the dermatologist. Katie. 559 00:32:04,320 --> 00:32:07,000 Speaker 2: Maybe you could take her down there, you can smart her. 560 00:32:09,400 --> 00:32:12,160 Speaker 1: Gloria Romero coming up at the top of the hour 561 00:32:12,200 --> 00:32:14,600 Speaker 1: as part of the Fixed California Hour. She's running for 562 00:32:14,680 --> 00:32:18,880 Speaker 1: lieutenant governor. Let's go to Tom and Rancho Cucamonga. Tom, welcome, 563 00:32:20,680 --> 00:32:22,440 Speaker 1: how you doing good? 564 00:32:22,680 --> 00:32:25,920 Speaker 12: Good I'm sure, uh so, I just you know, a 565 00:32:25,920 --> 00:32:28,880 Speaker 12: couple of years ago, I was complaining about the salt 566 00:32:28,960 --> 00:32:32,440 Speaker 12: and sea and the terrible stuff that's gone on there, 567 00:32:32,600 --> 00:32:36,480 Speaker 12: and I bought into the story about pollution caused by 568 00:32:37,920 --> 00:32:42,440 Speaker 12: farm fertilizer runoff, and the guy got in my face 569 00:32:42,520 --> 00:32:45,120 Speaker 12: that that's not the problem. It's the new river running 570 00:32:45,160 --> 00:32:47,800 Speaker 12: out of Mexicali into the salt and sea. I did 571 00:32:47,840 --> 00:32:49,560 Speaker 12: a little research, and that's the fact. 572 00:32:51,560 --> 00:32:53,560 Speaker 1: And I don't know if you've ever been out in 573 00:32:53,600 --> 00:32:56,720 Speaker 1: the Coachella Valley when the winds are blowing a certain way, 574 00:32:57,520 --> 00:33:00,520 Speaker 1: but if the Salton Sea is in bad shape and 575 00:33:00,560 --> 00:33:04,280 Speaker 1: the wind is blowing, you were not leaving your house 576 00:33:04,360 --> 00:33:04,800 Speaker 1: all day. 577 00:33:08,280 --> 00:33:14,320 Speaker 12: And because Mexico apparently is killing us with bad rivers. 578 00:33:13,000 --> 00:33:16,800 Speaker 1: Well it smells like your knee deep and fertilizer when 579 00:33:16,840 --> 00:33:23,880 Speaker 1: the wind is blowing. Could you imagine what it must 580 00:33:23,960 --> 00:33:29,800 Speaker 1: be like to be there or live there near that mess. 581 00:33:30,760 --> 00:33:34,560 Speaker 12: I've been there often over the years. It's pretty bad. 582 00:33:35,600 --> 00:33:38,960 Speaker 12: So you could you combine the sewage out of Mexico 583 00:33:38,960 --> 00:33:44,080 Speaker 12: ally with the farm fertilizer runoff? Sonny Bono had his 584 00:33:44,160 --> 00:33:46,680 Speaker 12: hands full. 585 00:33:46,920 --> 00:33:50,160 Speaker 1: Here's what I don't understand. They need us for any 586 00:33:50,280 --> 00:33:53,720 Speaker 1: number of things. They need us for help fighting the 587 00:33:53,800 --> 00:33:56,920 Speaker 1: drug cartels, they need us for help with trade, they 588 00:33:56,960 --> 00:34:02,960 Speaker 1: need us for help with any number of things national security. Okay, Well, 589 00:34:03,240 --> 00:34:05,040 Speaker 1: we spend a lot of money and a lot of 590 00:34:05,080 --> 00:34:08,640 Speaker 1: time helping you out. Could you stop dumping your raw 591 00:34:08,719 --> 00:34:13,880 Speaker 1: sewage directly into the river? Is that too much of 592 00:34:13,920 --> 00:34:14,160 Speaker 1: a man? 593 00:34:18,360 --> 00:34:21,279 Speaker 12: It should not be, but that's what we've got. Man 594 00:34:22,040 --> 00:34:22,880 Speaker 12: needs to be dealt with. 595 00:34:24,160 --> 00:34:27,719 Speaker 1: Or how about this, if for whatever reason, you need 596 00:34:27,760 --> 00:34:31,040 Speaker 1: to dump it directly into a river, how about doing 597 00:34:31,080 --> 00:34:32,880 Speaker 1: it in the southern part of the country, so some 598 00:34:32,960 --> 00:34:35,080 Speaker 1: other country has to deal with it, not us. 599 00:34:38,040 --> 00:34:40,960 Speaker 12: We need to damn the rivers up. Let them back 600 00:34:41,040 --> 00:34:43,400 Speaker 12: up into Tijuana and MEXICALI. 601 00:34:44,719 --> 00:34:46,920 Speaker 1: All right, thank you for the call, sir.

The first thing that you do. The 637 00:36:58,920 --> 00:37:03,120 Speaker 1: first thing is you have to show them a picture ID. 638 00:37:04,400 --> 00:37:07,399 Speaker 1: And if you do not have a picture ID, they 639 00:37:07,440 --> 00:37:09,520 Speaker 1: will not give you the keys to that room.

And then you 647 00:37:32,440 --> 00:37:34,239 Speaker 13: walk in and the first thing they ask you for 648 00:37:34,520 --> 00:37:37,320 Speaker 13: is can I see your photo ID. 649 00:37:38,320 --> 00:37:42,040 Speaker 1: You cannot go to your local grocery store and buy 650 00:37:42,120 --> 00:37:46,000 Speaker 1: a bottle of alcohol and not have to provide your ID. 651 00:37:46,560 --> 00:37:49,680 Speaker 1: And now they type it into the machine. So even 652 00:37:49,800 --> 00:37:53,080 Speaker 1: if you are obviously not even close to being under 653 00:37:53,120 --> 00:37:55,839 Speaker 1: the age of twenty one, they still want you to 654 00:37:55,880 --> 00:37:58,560 Speaker 1: present it so they can type it in. And it's 655 00:37:58,600 --> 00:38:01,759 Speaker 1: not just alcohol, they require you to show ID to 656 00:38:01,800 --> 00:38:02,799 Speaker 1: buy white claw too,
