Besides the massage parlor. 51 00:02:55,280 --> 00:02:59,560 Speaker 4: She also did a review of a super Cuts and 52 00:02:59,600 --> 00:03:02,840 Speaker 4: she all did a review of a place called Tony's Pizza. 53 00:03:05,480 --> 00:03:07,640 Speaker 2: Oh my gosh. And you know she's a neighbor, so 54 00:03:08,520 --> 00:03:11,840 Speaker 2: I'm waiting for her to review the serial selection and 55 00:03:11,919 --> 00:03:15,280 Speaker 2: the impossibly high shelves and the cereal section of our 56 00:03:15,280 --> 00:03:18,040 Speaker 2: local Albertson's where I see her frequently, like with a 57 00:03:18,040 --> 00:03:20,720 Speaker 2: reaching stick trying to knock down the cornflakes. 58 00:03:22,400 --> 00:03:26,320 Speaker 1: Else Now, I wonder what Supercuts did to her? 59 00:03:27,680 --> 00:03:29,440 Speaker 2: Not enough, I'm sorry that was. 60 00:03:29,440 --> 00:03:34,119 Speaker 1: Me, all right. So there's so much to get to here. 61 00:03:34,480 --> 00:03:36,840 Speaker 1: Let's start out with the story that we did yesterday 62 00:03:37,200 --> 00:03:43,760 Speaker 1: about the Newsom family, specifically the first partner, Jennifer Siebel Newsom, 63 00:03:44,400 --> 00:03:50,440 Speaker 1: and her connection to a group that provides diapers for Californians. 64 00:03:51,120 --> 00:03:54,560 Speaker 1: Galvin Newsom made a big deal about the state spending 65 00:03:54,600 --> 00:03:59,960 Speaker 1: money on diapers that would theoretically benefit poor or disadvantage 66 00:04:00,080 --> 00:04:04,280 Speaker 1: Californians who are having a difficult time purchasing them. And 67 00:04:04,320 --> 00:04:07,200 Speaker 1: then as you start peeling the layers of the onion, 68 00:04:08,480 --> 00:04:11,400 Speaker 1: or at least one reporter, our friend Julie Wats did 69 00:04:11,920 --> 00:04:16,479 Speaker 1: over at CBS in Sacramento, she found out that the 70 00:04:16,560 --> 00:04:20,680 Speaker 1: contract for those diapers was very difficult to obtain. She 71 00:04:20,720 --> 00:04:23,840 Speaker 1: still doesn't have it in her possession, despite the fact 72 00:04:23,839 --> 00:04:27,839 Speaker 1: that the state of California is supposed to provide contracts 73 00:04:28,000 --> 00:04:31,720 Speaker 1: with vendors. Then you find out this group that is 74 00:04:31,800 --> 00:04:37,800 Speaker 1: providing the diapers is connected to Jennifer Sebel Newsome. You 75 00:04:37,920 --> 00:04:41,120 Speaker 1: take that story and you put it together with what 76 00:04:41,160 --> 00:04:43,440 Speaker 1: we know is going on right now thanks to the 77 00:04:43,520 --> 00:04:47,880 Speaker 1: Newsoms themselves, who said that they're being investigated by the 78 00:04:47,920 --> 00:04:52,480 Speaker 1: federal government over business dealings involving the first partner, And 79 00:04:52,520 --> 00:04:55,200 Speaker 1: you say to yourself, how much trouble is on the 80 00:04:55,200 --> 00:04:56,440 Speaker 1: horizon for these two? 81 00:04:59,040 --> 00:05:01,920 Speaker 2: Yeah, I think what's the diaper story? Is just way 82 00:05:01,960 --> 00:05:04,160 Speaker 2: too much fun and we can laugh about that as 83 00:05:04,200 --> 00:05:07,200 Speaker 2: eighth grade boys. Maybe a little later. I think what's 84 00:05:07,240 --> 00:05:10,560 Speaker 2: fascinating is that Newsom is fundraising off the idea that Trump. 85 00:05:10,640 --> 00:05:15,000 Speaker 2: He claims Trump is investigating him. The important fact that's 86 00:05:15,120 --> 00:05:20,400 Speaker 2: missing from his claim is that these investigations with federal 87 00:05:20,440 --> 00:05:24,800 Speaker 2: investigators started under the Biden administration, not the Trump administration, 88 00:05:25,520 --> 00:05:29,200 Speaker 2: and they were brought by federal investigators in Sacramento, not 89 00:05:29,320 --> 00:05:33,120 Speaker 2: by somebody in Washington, d C. So this has been 90 00:05:33,200 --> 00:05:35,520 Speaker 2: going on. We now know as of like the last 91 00:05:35,520 --> 00:05:41,480 Speaker 2: week or ten days, federal officials investigating the Noosob administration 92 00:05:42,680 --> 00:05:46,520 Speaker 2: on multiple kinds of fraud claims, multiple fraud claims, beginning 93 00:05:46,560 --> 00:05:50,640 Speaker 2: in the Biden administration, right in Newsom's inner circle. So 94 00:05:50,960 --> 00:05:53,000 Speaker 2: this is a little bit like Watergate, you know, where 95 00:05:53,080 --> 00:05:56,240 Speaker 2: the pape on the door at an office in a 96 00:05:56,279 --> 00:06:01,080 Speaker 2: hotel opens up an entire conspiracy. This is how it starts. 97 00:06:01,400 --> 00:06:05,680 Speaker 2: Newsom has made several missteps here. His consultants and his 98 00:06:05,800 --> 00:06:10,039 Speaker 2: advisors have played fast and loose with the law. Now 99 00:06:10,040 --> 00:06:12,720 Speaker 2: it's his wife. I mean, this thing is sprawling, and 100 00:06:12,760 --> 00:06:15,280 Speaker 2: the only thing kind of keeping it off the radar 101 00:06:16,160 --> 00:06:20,400 Speaker 2: is Californian's absolute determination to make Trump the center of 102 00:06:20,440 --> 00:06:21,839 Speaker 2: every problem we experience. 103 00:06:23,560 --> 00:06:27,160 Speaker 1: A lot of people have reached out and said, you know, 104 00:06:27,800 --> 00:06:31,120 Speaker 1: I have a hard time believing that this story in 105 00:06:31,160 --> 00:06:33,599 Speaker 1: particular is going to be a massive problem for Gavin 106 00:06:33,680 --> 00:06:38,839 Speaker 1: Newsom because the Sebells come from serious money. They're a 107 00:06:38,960 --> 00:06:44,680 Speaker 1: very wealthy family. Gavin Newsom is affiliated with the Getty family. 108 00:06:44,720 --> 00:06:47,080 Speaker 1: They're the ones that have funded plump Jack, They're the 109 00:06:47,080 --> 00:06:50,880 Speaker 1: ones that have employed his father, They're the ones that 110 00:06:50,960 --> 00:06:55,080 Speaker 1: have been very influential in his political career. They have 111 00:06:55,320 --> 00:06:58,520 Speaker 1: access to all of this money. They don't need to 112 00:06:58,560 --> 00:07:01,960 Speaker 1: have side hustles to make money so that they can 113 00:07:02,320 --> 00:07:06,280 Speaker 1: live their lifestyle. And I think that that's wrong. And 114 00:07:06,320 --> 00:07:10,200 Speaker 1: I say that because people frequently assume that other people 115 00:07:10,400 --> 00:07:13,360 Speaker 1: have a lot more money than they actually do. And 116 00:07:13,400 --> 00:07:17,280 Speaker 1: there's a difference between having proximity to wealth and having 117 00:07:17,360 --> 00:07:21,680 Speaker 1: wealth yourself. And when you're a public official, you make 118 00:07:21,760 --> 00:07:23,880 Speaker 1: whatever it is that the governor makes. And yes, of 119 00:07:23,920 --> 00:07:27,160 Speaker 1: course Nancy Pelosi and others in Congress have done quite 120 00:07:27,200 --> 00:07:30,280 Speaker 1: well in the stock market making money through other means, 121 00:07:30,680 --> 00:07:33,840 Speaker 1: but that's not how it happens for most of them. 122 00:07:34,520 --> 00:07:38,760 Speaker 1: Most of them have to show their taxes, they have 123 00:07:38,840 --> 00:07:42,520 Speaker 1: to be transparent about where their income is coming from, 124 00:07:43,120 --> 00:07:45,600 Speaker 1: all of those sorts of things. So I think it's 125 00:07:45,720 --> 00:07:49,240 Speaker 1: entirely within the realm of possibilities that those two to 126 00:07:49,560 --> 00:07:52,520 Speaker 1: maintain their lifestyle of having a bunch of kids in 127 00:07:52,560 --> 00:07:56,720 Speaker 1: private school and going on lavish vacations, all of those things, 128 00:07:57,040 --> 00:07:59,280 Speaker 1: that they would have to find some sort of way 129 00:07:59,560 --> 00:08:01,320 Speaker 1: to make additional funds. 130 00:08:02,760 --> 00:08:05,880 Speaker 2: Yeah, I think John, you're right on. I think that 131 00:08:05,920 --> 00:08:10,480 Speaker 2: this is a feature of human character development. You know, 132 00:08:10,520 --> 00:08:12,720 Speaker 2: we've we've always you know, there's always been that old 133 00:08:12,720 --> 00:08:16,440 Speaker 2: phrase keeping up with the Joneses. When when rich people 134 00:08:16,480 --> 00:08:19,880 Speaker 2: are around people who are richer, that sparks a kind 135 00:08:19,880 --> 00:08:23,040 Speaker 2: of avarice, a kind of greed or ambition, a desire 136 00:08:23,080 --> 00:08:25,440 Speaker 2: simply to be like those people. And this is this 137 00:08:25,560 --> 00:08:28,680 Speaker 2: is deep in human nature. I'm not suggesting that you know, 138 00:08:28,720 --> 00:08:30,480 Speaker 2: the Nwsoms are unique in this. I don't think you 139 00:08:30,520 --> 00:08:34,760 Speaker 2: are either. But that's that explains why two people who 140 00:08:34,800 --> 00:08:39,040 Speaker 2: come from money, despite Newsom's counter claims, two people who 141 00:08:39,040 --> 00:08:42,320 Speaker 2: come from real money are not satisfied with the money 142 00:08:42,320 --> 00:08:44,400 Speaker 2: they've got. You know, just to take an example, I 143 00:08:44,440 --> 00:08:46,520 Speaker 2: doubt that the richest man in the world, Elon Musk, 144 00:08:46,640 --> 00:08:48,319 Speaker 2: is going to just start kicking it on the beach. 145 00:08:48,920 --> 00:08:51,280 Speaker 2: You know, these are people who want to be wealthier. 146 00:08:51,320 --> 00:08:53,760 Speaker 2: And then you know, in Elon's case. In fact, he's 147 00:08:53,760 --> 00:08:57,840 Speaker 2: adding value, so let's not compare him too closely to Newsom. So, yeah, 148 00:08:57,880 --> 00:08:59,640 Speaker 2: I think you know, the way that they have begun 149 00:08:59,679 --> 00:09:02,200 Speaker 2: to oper rate is through the mechanism of what's called 150 00:09:02,240 --> 00:09:04,200 Speaker 2: and you know this, John, but through the mechanism of 151 00:09:04,240 --> 00:09:08,640 Speaker 2: behested payments. That's where people with business before the governor 152 00:09:09,240 --> 00:09:11,839 Speaker 2: do not give money directly to the governor because that 153 00:09:11,880 --> 00:09:14,400 Speaker 2: would be way too obvious. And so what they do 154 00:09:14,480 --> 00:09:18,240 Speaker 2: is they fund Newsom's other pet projects foreign travel, going 155 00:09:18,280 --> 00:09:20,880 Speaker 2: to meet Xijin Ping, or traveling through the Deep South 156 00:09:20,960 --> 00:09:24,280 Speaker 2: to rally potential voters for twenty twenty eight, give the 157 00:09:24,320 --> 00:09:28,400 Speaker 2: money to his wife, Jennifer Cebel Newsom, and what you 158 00:09:28,480 --> 00:09:32,520 Speaker 2: get are transgender projects, documentaries about boys who want to 159 00:09:32,520 --> 00:09:36,080 Speaker 2: be girls, et cetera, et cetera. And she makes hundreds 160 00:09:36,080 --> 00:09:39,600 Speaker 2: of thousands of dollars per year just from those kinds 161 00:09:39,640 --> 00:09:44,160 Speaker 2: of gifts. So it's major corporations, major political interests who 162 00:09:44,200 --> 00:09:47,840 Speaker 2: give money to nonprofits as a way of kind of 163 00:09:47,920 --> 00:09:50,720 Speaker 2: laundering the cash. So that doesn't have the fingerprints of 164 00:09:50,720 --> 00:09:53,600 Speaker 2: either of the organization and it doesn't really end up 165 00:09:53,679 --> 00:09:57,079 Speaker 2: immediately in the hands of Gavin Newsom, but in the 166 00:09:57,520 --> 00:09:59,200 Speaker 2: in the bank accounts, his money ends up in the 167 00:09:59,200 --> 00:10:01,520 Speaker 2: bank accounts of his wife, for instance. 168 00:10:04,040 --> 00:10:07,480 Speaker 1: You know, as we get deeper and deeper into this 169 00:10:07,600 --> 00:10:11,840 Speaker 1: midterm election, and you see the DSA candidates doing quite 170 00:10:11,920 --> 00:10:15,480 Speaker 1: well in so many races around the country, and you 171 00:10:15,520 --> 00:10:19,319 Speaker 1: look at Gavin Newsom, who was trying to portray himself 172 00:10:19,720 --> 00:10:24,400 Speaker 1: as the inevitable establishment Democratic candidate for president, the consensus 173 00:10:24,440 --> 00:10:29,800 Speaker 1: candidate that the party could rally behind. It seems, particularly 174 00:10:29,880 --> 00:10:32,960 Speaker 1: when you combine it with his troubles right now with 175 00:10:33,000 --> 00:10:37,079 Speaker 1: the federal government and various investigations in his dealings and 176 00:10:37,160 --> 00:10:40,600 Speaker 1: his wife's dealings, it seems like he is zigging. Well 177 00:10:40,640 --> 00:10:45,880 Speaker 1: the Democratic Party is zagging. Do you see it that way? 178 00:10:47,280 --> 00:10:50,080 Speaker 2: Yes, and no. I'd love to know what you know, 179 00:10:50,120 --> 00:10:53,480 Speaker 2: what evidence you're looking at. What I see is that 180 00:10:53,720 --> 00:10:55,800 Speaker 2: on the one hand, he appears to be mister moderate 181 00:10:55,880 --> 00:11:01,000 Speaker 2: by opposing SEIU Service Employees International Union the wealth tax 182 00:11:01,040 --> 00:11:04,360 Speaker 2: that they have successfully qualified for the November ballot. He 183 00:11:04,400 --> 00:11:07,440 Speaker 2: opposes that for reasons we ought to talk about, because 184 00:11:07,480 --> 00:11:11,720 Speaker 2: it's not on the merits, it's really something else. But 185 00:11:11,960 --> 00:11:15,320 Speaker 2: his counter in opposing this was not I oppose wealth 186 00:11:15,360 --> 00:11:18,080 Speaker 2: taxes or I love billionaires. It was no, no, no, no. 187 00:11:18,280 --> 00:11:20,240 Speaker 2: This is an idea so good. We have to do 188 00:11:20,280 --> 00:11:22,720 Speaker 2: it at the national level in order to be really 189 00:11:22,720 --> 00:11:28,280 Speaker 2: successful in capturing the wealth of working billionaires. So you know, 190 00:11:28,320 --> 00:11:31,319 Speaker 2: I see that as as a kind of a zig zag, like, hey, 191 00:11:31,400 --> 00:11:34,840 Speaker 2: I oppose the state wealth tax, but the zag is 192 00:11:35,600 --> 00:11:38,240 Speaker 2: I like a billionaire tax at the federal level. What 193 00:11:38,280 --> 00:11:40,400 Speaker 2: do you say on John Well? 194 00:11:40,480 --> 00:11:44,760 Speaker 1: I see him as wanting to be mister establishment Democrat 195 00:11:44,880 --> 00:11:49,119 Speaker 1: when the Democratic voters do not want the establishment Democrats. 196 00:11:49,160 --> 00:11:54,000 Speaker 1: They don't want Chuck Schumer, they don't want Goldman in 197 00:11:54,040 --> 00:11:57,640 Speaker 1: the New York delegation, they don't want Karen Bass in 198 00:11:57,720 --> 00:12:00,679 Speaker 1: Los Angeles. They want the DSA camp that's going to 199 00:12:00,720 --> 00:12:05,360 Speaker 1: burn the system down. And Gavin, I believe, as the 200 00:12:05,600 --> 00:12:09,520 Speaker 1: chief campaign surrogate for Joe Biden and Kamala Harris in 201 00:12:09,559 --> 00:12:13,280 Speaker 1: the last election, was trying to portray himself as a 202 00:12:13,320 --> 00:12:17,000 Speaker 1: consensus Democrat that all of the factions of the party 203 00:12:17,040 --> 00:12:20,360 Speaker 1: could get behind, and that the donors would like, and 204 00:12:20,440 --> 00:12:23,880 Speaker 1: the unions would like, and the party structure would like. 205 00:12:24,679 --> 00:12:27,880 Speaker 1: He was that guy. But right now it seems like 206 00:12:27,960 --> 00:12:31,359 Speaker 1: their voters are moving in a direction where they're selecting 207 00:12:31,440 --> 00:12:35,400 Speaker 1: candidates who are explicitly running against Chuck Schumer and running 208 00:12:35,400 --> 00:12:39,080 Speaker 1: against the Democratic Party, and running on subjects that the 209 00:12:39,080 --> 00:12:42,760 Speaker 1: Democratic Party would probably prefer not to talk about, like 210 00:12:42,920 --> 00:12:47,360 Speaker 1: Israel and other things. It seems like Gavin Newsom may 211 00:12:47,480 --> 00:12:50,600 Speaker 1: tried to portray himself as being that guy, but there's 212 00:12:50,600 --> 00:12:54,560 Speaker 1: no authenticity there. He is an establishment Democrat to his core. 213 00:12:56,160 --> 00:12:59,560 Speaker 2: Yeah, I think that's right, and I think there's lots 214 00:12:59,559 --> 00:13:03,200 Speaker 2: of evidence to suggest that's correct. So, for example, his 215 00:13:03,440 --> 00:13:08,640 Speaker 2: opposition to the wealth tax in California is supposed to 216 00:13:08,760 --> 00:13:12,280 Speaker 2: signal that he's, you know, he's the real moderate guy 217 00:13:12,320 --> 00:13:15,480 Speaker 2: in the room, But in fact, his opposition to the 218 00:13:15,480 --> 00:13:18,679 Speaker 2: wealth tax is predicated on the fact that there are 219 00:13:18,720 --> 00:13:22,640 Speaker 2: these other unions to which he is extraordinarily loyal the Teachers' Union, 220 00:13:22,679 --> 00:13:25,920 Speaker 2: the prison guards, cops, firefighters, et cetera, but especially the 221 00:13:25,960 --> 00:13:30,200 Speaker 2: teachers CTA, and they want to cut of the action here. 222 00:13:30,360 --> 00:13:33,480 Speaker 2: And if SCIU gets this wealth tax across the finish line, 223 00:13:33,760 --> 00:13:35,199 Speaker 2: if you get kind of in the weeds on this, 224 00:13:35,520 --> 00:13:38,480 Speaker 2: it will diminish the general tax revenue, which will hurt 225 00:13:38,640 --> 00:13:43,079 Speaker 2: every other union to whom Newsomo is real loyalty. So 226 00:13:43,320 --> 00:13:46,199 Speaker 2: he's in a careful balancing act here. And I do 227 00:13:46,240 --> 00:13:49,160 Speaker 2: think that he has tried to moderate some of the 228 00:13:49,200 --> 00:13:53,600 Speaker 2: worst successes, you know, the Scott Wiener kinds of stuff 229 00:13:53,640 --> 00:13:56,079 Speaker 2: that we could talk all day about. He has tried 230 00:13:56,120 --> 00:13:59,360 Speaker 2: to moderate those things. He has opposed single payer healthcare, 231 00:14:00,040 --> 00:14:01,960 Speaker 2: and I think there's wisdom in this. I'm just going 232 00:14:02,000 --> 00:14:04,960 Speaker 2: to say, you likely know much more about the national 233 00:14:05,000 --> 00:14:07,200 Speaker 2: scene than I do. I'm just strictly a California guy, 234 00:14:07,720 --> 00:14:10,800 Speaker 2: but my sense is a lot of the crazy in 235 00:14:10,840 --> 00:14:15,040 Speaker 2: California is why the Democrats cannot win. You know, when 236 00:14:15,040 --> 00:14:18,280 Speaker 2: my Democrat friends ask, you know, how could people vote 237 00:14:18,320 --> 00:14:21,200 Speaker 2: for Trump? I say, how could you guys nominate Kamala Harris? 238 00:14:21,640 --> 00:14:25,440 Speaker 2: How could you nominate crazy Democrats and progressives in DSA 239 00:14:25,520 --> 00:14:29,640 Speaker 2: and Mandami and Niffie Rahman, and you know, continue the list. 240 00:14:30,320 --> 00:14:32,480 Speaker 2: And the fact is is that the Democrats keep losing 241 00:14:32,520 --> 00:14:36,200 Speaker 2: because they cannot control. They're far left. So we get 242 00:14:36,240 --> 00:14:38,120 Speaker 2: a guy like Donald Trump, and people like him a 243 00:14:38,160 --> 00:14:39,640 Speaker 2: lot because he's not as crease that there are a 244 00:14:39,640 --> 00:14:41,280 Speaker 2: lot of people who hold their nose and vote for 245 00:14:41,320 --> 00:14:44,080 Speaker 2: Trump because the Democrats are so out of touch. If 246 00:14:44,160 --> 00:14:47,040 Speaker 2: Newsom really wants to win in twenty twenty eight. Doesn't 247 00:14:47,080 --> 00:14:50,960 Speaker 2: he have to really cultivate Democrats in other states who 248 00:14:51,040 --> 00:14:54,880 Speaker 2: tend to be more moderate than California Democrats. 249 00:14:55,280 --> 00:14:59,840 Speaker 1: I'm asking, well, I see this battle as a battle 250 00:15:00,080 --> 00:15:03,520 Speaker 1: will really tell us a lot about what kind of 251 00:15:03,640 --> 00:15:06,960 Speaker 1: future Gavin Newsom thinks he has in the Democratic Party, 252 00:15:07,560 --> 00:15:10,640 Speaker 1: Because if he is actually going to campaign up and 253 00:15:10,720 --> 00:15:14,680 Speaker 1: down the state against this wealth confiscation text, yes he'll 254 00:15:14,720 --> 00:15:17,200 Speaker 1: do a solid for the teachers Union and the prison 255 00:15:17,200 --> 00:15:20,320 Speaker 1: guards union, but you look at the power that the 256 00:15:20,360 --> 00:15:25,240 Speaker 1: SCIU has, not just in California but nationally and within 257 00:15:25,280 --> 00:15:29,640 Speaker 1: the Democratic Party, and that's an enemy he probably doesn't 258 00:15:29,680 --> 00:15:33,600 Speaker 1: want in a Democratic primary for president. Now, if he 259 00:15:33,760 --> 00:15:37,200 Speaker 1: just puts his name down on paper as being opposed 260 00:15:37,240 --> 00:15:40,040 Speaker 1: to it and then doesn't really do much in terms 261 00:15:40,040 --> 00:15:43,520 Speaker 1: of campaigning the way he did with Proposition thirty six 262 00:15:43,600 --> 00:15:46,400 Speaker 1: once he realized the writing was on the wall there, 263 00:15:46,720 --> 00:15:49,920 Speaker 1: I think he can mend fences. But if he actually 264 00:15:50,640 --> 00:15:53,960 Speaker 1: campaigns in a way that has an impact on the 265 00:15:54,000 --> 00:15:57,920 Speaker 1: outcome and the SEIU doesn't get what they want, I 266 00:15:57,960 --> 00:16:00,120 Speaker 1: think they're going to have it in for him, and 267 00:16:00,160 --> 00:16:02,120 Speaker 1: I think this is going to be a Sicilian thing 268 00:16:02,480 --> 00:16:05,400 Speaker 1: between him and the Seiu, and that's going to be 269 00:16:05,440 --> 00:16:07,440 Speaker 1: a real problem for mister Gavin. 270 00:16:09,200 --> 00:16:14,000 Speaker 2: I think that's the title for the episode, the Sicilian Thing. Yes, John, 271 00:16:14,040 --> 00:16:16,000 Speaker 2: I think I think you've got it. But I think 272 00:16:16,000 --> 00:16:18,400 Speaker 2: the good news for Newsom is he doesn't have to 273 00:16:18,440 --> 00:16:21,000 Speaker 2: lift a finger to fight the wealth tax. It's really 274 00:16:21,040 --> 00:16:25,160 Speaker 2: the teachers Union that has the biggest stake in this 275 00:16:25,320 --> 00:16:30,400 Speaker 2: fight for them. You know, keep in mind, by constitutional amendment, 276 00:16:31,120 --> 00:16:34,280 Speaker 2: the teachers Union gets about forty percent of the general 277 00:16:34,560 --> 00:16:38,320 Speaker 2: revenue budget every year, forty percent, almost half of what 278 00:16:38,400 --> 00:16:42,400 Speaker 2: we get in in terms of tax revenue. And if 279 00:16:42,400 --> 00:16:45,080 Speaker 2: that is driven down by the wealth tax, which you know, 280 00:16:45,120 --> 00:16:46,640 Speaker 2: you and I could dig into the math if you want, 281 00:16:46,640 --> 00:16:50,600 Speaker 2: but it's pretty simple. If billionaires flee California to avoid 282 00:16:50,600 --> 00:16:54,280 Speaker 2: a wealth tax, they will pay less in income tax 283 00:16:54,280 --> 00:16:57,120 Speaker 2: because they're not here anymore. They will pay less, they 284 00:16:57,120 --> 00:16:59,160 Speaker 2: will pay no income tax if they leave the state 285 00:16:59,200 --> 00:17:03,720 Speaker 2: of California. That means that the denominator that the California 286 00:17:03,800 --> 00:17:06,400 Speaker 2: Teachers Association is working on, that forty percent that they're 287 00:17:06,440 --> 00:17:09,320 Speaker 2: looking at comes out of a smaller number. They don't 288 00:17:09,320 --> 00:17:12,440 Speaker 2: want that. They want much more money. So to the 289 00:17:12,440 --> 00:17:15,240 Speaker 2: prison guard, so to the cops, firefighters, the DMV workers, 290 00:17:15,280 --> 00:17:17,760 Speaker 2: you name it. They all want more money. So I 291 00:17:17,760 --> 00:17:20,639 Speaker 2: think Newsom could say you could tick the box of 292 00:17:20,760 --> 00:17:23,280 Speaker 2: look at me, I'm a moderate by saying I'm opposed 293 00:17:23,280 --> 00:17:25,040 Speaker 2: to this thing, and then, as you point out, not 294 00:17:25,080 --> 00:17:28,000 Speaker 2: do anything to campaign against it. And when people really 295 00:17:28,000 --> 00:17:30,040 Speaker 2: try to corner him, like, hey, why do you oppose 296 00:17:30,080 --> 00:17:33,000 Speaker 2: the wealth tax? Oh, I don't I support a national 297 00:17:33,000 --> 00:17:37,520 Speaker 2: wealth tax like that genius economist Elizabeth Warren or Robert Reich. 298 00:17:38,240 --> 00:17:41,480 Speaker 2: So I think you're right. This is for him. The 299 00:17:41,520 --> 00:17:44,600 Speaker 2: calculation is I'm a moderate because I oppose it. Here, 300 00:17:45,080 --> 00:17:47,040 Speaker 2: don't ask me to campaign against it. If you're the 301 00:17:47,040 --> 00:17:50,280 Speaker 2: teachers union, you guys go out and spend. The teachers 302 00:17:50,359 --> 00:17:53,280 Speaker 2: unions raise more than a half a billion dollars every 303 00:17:53,320 --> 00:17:56,680 Speaker 2: election cycle. They can run this campaign all day long 304 00:17:56,680 --> 00:17:59,360 Speaker 2: with one hand tie behind their back and promote their 305 00:17:59,400 --> 00:18:02,200 Speaker 2: top margin income tax rate of thirteen point three percent 306 00:18:02,240 --> 00:18:04,639 Speaker 2: at the same time. So I think you just have 307 00:18:04,680 --> 00:18:04,960 Speaker 2: to do. 308 00:18:04,960 --> 00:18:09,320 Speaker 1: Anything, all right, We're going to have to leave it there. 309 00:18:09,400 --> 00:18:14,040 Speaker 1: Will swam who is the CEO of the California Policy Center. 310 00:18:14,160 --> 00:18:18,560 Speaker 1: He's also host of National Reviews Radio Free California podcast. 311 00:18:18,880 --> 00:18:22,080 Speaker 1: You can get him online at California Policycenter dot org 312 00:18:22,280 --> 00:18:25,280 Speaker 1: and follow him on exit will Swam, will Swam, thanks 313 00:18:25,320 --> 00:18:26,320 Speaker 1: so much for stopping by. 314 00:18:27,480 --> 00:18:28,960 Speaker 2: I'm standing buying for Katie Porter. 315 00:18:29,040 --> 00:18:34,920 Speaker 1: Go guys, all right, and Randy, you're monitoring the likes 316 00:18:34,960 --> 00:18:36,600 Speaker 1: that we're getting right now on the stream. 317 00:18:36,720 --> 00:18:39,280 Speaker 4: John has put out a challenge to you, the listening 318 00:18:39,320 --> 00:18:43,320 Speaker 4: audience of KABC and KSFO and everywhere else that people 319 00:18:43,359 --> 00:18:46,840 Speaker 4: are listening, if we can get our video feed at 320 00:18:46,880 --> 00:18:50,520 Speaker 4: YouTube dot com, slash at Randy Wang Radio to one 321 00:18:50,560 --> 00:18:56,400 Speaker 4: thousand likes by two thirty, Johnny will start reading Katie 322 00:18:56,440 --> 00:19:00,520 Speaker 4: Porter's YELP reviews.
