1 00:00:00,200 --> 00:00:05,160 Speaker 1: It's the Ray Appleton Podcast from KMJ and KMJ now 2 00:00:05,400 --> 00:00:07,680 Speaker 1: dot com. 3 00:00:07,840 --> 00:00:09,280 Speaker 2: Oh, I have the feeling this is going to be 4 00:00:09,280 --> 00:00:12,040 Speaker 2: a lot of fun today. But before I give you, 5 00:00:12,119 --> 00:00:14,920 Speaker 2: Katie Grimes from the California Globe, I got to tell 6 00:00:14,960 --> 00:00:20,040 Speaker 2: you this. The Supreme Court has allowed California to use 7 00:00:20,040 --> 00:00:23,799 Speaker 2: the new voter approved congressional map that is favorable to 8 00:00:23,840 --> 00:00:28,640 Speaker 2: the Democrats. So it sounds like Gavin Newsom wins on 9 00:00:28,800 --> 00:00:32,440 Speaker 2: something the day may go a little better for him. Katie, 10 00:00:32,440 --> 00:00:34,000 Speaker 2: how are you are you aware of that by the 11 00:00:34,040 --> 00:00:34,680 Speaker 2: Supreme Court? 12 00:00:35,680 --> 00:00:39,040 Speaker 1: No, Ray, I wasn't. I hadn't heard that yet. 13 00:00:39,200 --> 00:00:41,800 Speaker 2: This will reject I mean, they rejected the last ditch 14 00:00:41,840 --> 00:00:45,879 Speaker 2: please from the state Republicans and the Trump administration. You know, 15 00:00:45,920 --> 00:00:48,479 Speaker 2: the Justice has had previously kind of gave a look 16 00:00:48,560 --> 00:00:50,640 Speaker 2: see at it, but we thought it was going to 17 00:00:50,680 --> 00:00:53,080 Speaker 2: go one direction, but it went another. 18 00:00:54,000 --> 00:00:57,040 Speaker 1: You know. On one hand, I'm really not that surprised though, 19 00:00:57,160 --> 00:01:02,000 Speaker 1: just because of the state's rights in you know, in 20 00:01:02,120 --> 00:01:06,840 Speaker 1: how they conduct elections, voting, et cetera. So I think 21 00:01:06,880 --> 00:01:09,800 Speaker 1: this will probably end up being litigated after the fact. 22 00:01:10,480 --> 00:01:13,440 Speaker 2: And what what do you think will happen then? I mean, 23 00:01:13,440 --> 00:01:15,000 Speaker 2: we don't have crystal balls. But what do you think 24 00:01:15,040 --> 00:01:17,520 Speaker 2: that's going to go? Yeah, litigated after the fact. 25 00:01:18,120 --> 00:01:21,200 Speaker 1: Because I think there's going to be a national push 26 00:01:21,640 --> 00:01:26,040 Speaker 1: at least for federal elections to have some I think 27 00:01:26,080 --> 00:01:29,360 Speaker 1: that's where it's going to go. So, you know, we 28 00:01:29,560 --> 00:01:33,080 Speaker 1: hope that this would have been decided with you know, 29 00:01:33,160 --> 00:01:35,000 Speaker 1: what you and I thought would have been the right 30 00:01:35,040 --> 00:01:37,600 Speaker 1: way this time. But I have a funny feeling there's 31 00:01:37,640 --> 00:01:41,440 Speaker 1: going to be some federal precedence that is set, as 32 00:01:41,440 --> 00:01:44,959 Speaker 1: I said, on federal elections that should indicate how states 33 00:01:45,040 --> 00:01:50,760 Speaker 1: also conduct their elections and congressional maps and and you 34 00:01:50,760 --> 00:01:52,240 Speaker 1: know census and all that. 35 00:01:53,360 --> 00:01:58,200 Speaker 2: Well, you're a California native, just like I'm a California native, Yes, sir. Now, 36 00:01:58,360 --> 00:02:01,800 Speaker 2: we've had a couple of terms of Governor Moonbeam, and 37 00:02:01,920 --> 00:02:05,120 Speaker 2: we've had a couple of terms of Gavin Newsom. Your 38 00:02:05,160 --> 00:02:07,360 Speaker 2: thoughts who did the most damage? 39 00:02:08,960 --> 00:02:12,040 Speaker 1: Well, I've always said that Jerry Brown is the one 40 00:02:12,040 --> 00:02:15,680 Speaker 1: that destroyed the state. But you know that's going back 41 00:02:15,760 --> 00:02:19,760 Speaker 1: to the seventies. In his first two terms, then he 42 00:02:19,800 --> 00:02:22,239 Speaker 1: came back with what I said, he was trying to 43 00:02:22,280 --> 00:02:26,959 Speaker 1: finish it off at the time, but nobody could have 44 00:02:27,080 --> 00:02:31,320 Speaker 1: seen what an incomp well, I won't even say incompetent boob, 45 00:02:31,360 --> 00:02:35,480 Speaker 1: because I think Gavin Newsom is probably one of them, 46 00:02:35,520 --> 00:02:39,400 Speaker 1: probably the most destructive governor we've ever seen in this state. 47 00:02:39,440 --> 00:02:41,560 Speaker 1: And I don't think it's due to incompetence. I think 48 00:02:41,600 --> 00:02:47,800 Speaker 1: it is deliberate. So Jerry might have set it all up. 49 00:02:48,080 --> 00:02:51,959 Speaker 1: But as I said in my article yesterday, Gavin Newsom 50 00:02:52,000 --> 00:02:53,120 Speaker 1: put on the after burners. 51 00:02:53,440 --> 00:02:58,200 Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, I like that. And you know Gavin Newsom 52 00:02:58,280 --> 00:03:02,640 Speaker 2: and his claim of a poor childhood, from a poor childhood, 53 00:03:02,680 --> 00:03:06,480 Speaker 2: opening up a winery and now we understand even taking 54 00:03:06,919 --> 00:03:10,320 Speaker 2: money from his campaign to support that wine shop in 55 00:03:10,360 --> 00:03:12,240 Speaker 2: San Francisco. This is not good. 56 00:03:13,240 --> 00:03:16,880 Speaker 1: No, that that is that is so unethical. I'll even 57 00:03:16,919 --> 00:03:18,399 Speaker 1: just leave it at that. I'm not going to say 58 00:03:18,440 --> 00:03:22,480 Speaker 1: illegal because the Fair Political Practices Commission is supposed to 59 00:03:22,520 --> 00:03:26,360 Speaker 1: determine or you know, follow up on those kinds of charges. 60 00:03:26,360 --> 00:03:28,440 Speaker 1: But he appointed all the members, so we know that's 61 00:03:28,480 --> 00:03:32,240 Speaker 1: not going to go anywhere. But I think it shows 62 00:03:32,280 --> 00:03:36,000 Speaker 1: you a he's not the businessman he claims to be. 63 00:03:36,520 --> 00:03:39,480 Speaker 1: He's certainly not self made, since he opened up his 64 00:03:39,600 --> 00:03:44,560 Speaker 1: winery at age twenty five with getty money. And you know, 65 00:03:44,640 --> 00:03:48,800 Speaker 1: his claims of having to subsist on mac and cheese 66 00:03:48,960 --> 00:03:51,880 Speaker 1: and you know, whatever packaged food he could find because 67 00:03:51,880 --> 00:03:55,400 Speaker 1: he was so poor and sleeping on a couch as 68 00:03:55,720 --> 00:03:58,200 Speaker 1: and then I said, bam, then he opens a winery. 69 00:03:59,000 --> 00:04:00,960 Speaker 1: But no, it doesn't ad up. Plus, I mean, there's 70 00:04:01,000 --> 00:04:03,800 Speaker 1: too many photos of Gavin out there, you know that 71 00:04:03,800 --> 00:04:06,800 Speaker 1: that one of in his in his yearbook, the senior 72 00:04:06,800 --> 00:04:10,160 Speaker 1: in high school with a very excessive burbery burbery scarf 73 00:04:10,200 --> 00:04:13,360 Speaker 1: around snack, you know. And the thing that I point 74 00:04:13,360 --> 00:04:17,040 Speaker 1: out is I'm a few years older than Gavin, and 75 00:04:18,000 --> 00:04:21,680 Speaker 1: I knew poor kids growing up, and they were skinny, 76 00:04:22,080 --> 00:04:25,320 Speaker 1: and they ate you know, day old bread and government 77 00:04:25,440 --> 00:04:28,960 Speaker 1: cheese and and you know whatever their parents could cobble together. 78 00:04:29,680 --> 00:04:34,360 Speaker 1: It wasn't you know, package expensive packaged food. And I 79 00:04:34,440 --> 00:04:38,440 Speaker 1: mean his tail just doesn't. It never passes the smell test. 80 00:04:38,520 --> 00:04:40,320 Speaker 2: You know. And this one is so easily debunked. I 81 00:04:40,360 --> 00:04:41,880 Speaker 2: don't know how he can think I can get away 82 00:04:41,880 --> 00:04:42,920 Speaker 2: with it, you know. 83 00:04:43,320 --> 00:04:46,280 Speaker 1: You know, yeah, I agree, and that when that's part 84 00:04:46,279 --> 00:04:49,200 Speaker 1: of why I wrote the article is that, you know, 85 00:04:49,200 --> 00:04:52,520 Speaker 1: as I said, Barack Obama was a ghost to most 86 00:04:52,520 --> 00:04:55,919 Speaker 1: of us when he ran for office. Gavin Newsom's life 87 00:04:56,120 --> 00:05:01,360 Speaker 1: is out there. There are news articles, magazine articles, tons 88 00:05:01,360 --> 00:05:06,440 Speaker 1: of photos of him, always growing up getty as has 89 00:05:06,560 --> 00:05:10,279 Speaker 1: become the phrase. But I think it shows you what 90 00:05:11,200 --> 00:05:15,159 Speaker 1: a really diabolical human being he is, because he really 91 00:05:15,200 --> 00:05:18,360 Speaker 1: thinks he can rewrite history and get away with it. 92 00:05:19,040 --> 00:05:22,560 Speaker 1: And you know, obviously the Vogue magazine was all too 93 00:05:22,600 --> 00:05:27,400 Speaker 1: happy to god to partake in the slobbering Love Affair 94 00:05:27,560 --> 00:05:30,400 Speaker 1: to steal from Bernie Goldberg's book. 95 00:05:30,240 --> 00:05:32,560 Speaker 2: Complete with a Nanny Liebowitch photo shoot. I mean they 96 00:05:32,600 --> 00:05:33,320 Speaker 2: went all in on this. 97 00:05:33,480 --> 00:05:37,680 Speaker 1: Yeah, oh yeah, it's it's it's absolutely pathetic. I wouldn't 98 00:05:37,920 --> 00:05:40,960 Speaker 1: you know. Vogue magazine has turned into a joke. They 99 00:05:41,000 --> 00:05:44,279 Speaker 1: have no circulation anymore, but it's out there and now 100 00:05:44,279 --> 00:05:46,320 Speaker 1: everybody's right about it, which is what he wanted in 101 00:05:46,360 --> 00:05:50,480 Speaker 1: the first place. So you know, the truth, the reality 102 00:05:50,880 --> 00:05:54,279 Speaker 1: never matters to Gavin Newsom as long as he can 103 00:05:54,360 --> 00:05:58,159 Speaker 1: get out what he wants out at that moment in time. 104 00:05:59,600 --> 00:06:04,680 Speaker 2: What do you think spawned this? This Times Square billboard 105 00:06:04,680 --> 00:06:09,200 Speaker 2: in New York City comparing him to the the the Jets. 106 00:06:10,360 --> 00:06:12,559 Speaker 2: This was boy, I didn't see this coming. 107 00:06:12,800 --> 00:06:18,600 Speaker 1: Wow, pretty funny. Huh oh yeah, yeah, it's uh, well, 108 00:06:18,600 --> 00:06:22,520 Speaker 1: the organization that did it, the California Business and Industrial Alliance, 109 00:06:22,600 --> 00:06:27,599 Speaker 1: has had quite a good sparring with Gavin Newsom for 110 00:06:27,680 --> 00:06:30,799 Speaker 1: a long time. Their name tells you why. The Business 111 00:06:30,800 --> 00:06:35,080 Speaker 1: and Industrial Alliance, you know, they've been after Gavin since 112 00:06:35,400 --> 00:06:39,359 Speaker 1: AB five, you know, destroyed the giggee con you know, 113 00:06:39,400 --> 00:06:45,360 Speaker 1: the gig gig jobs and independent contractors. This was absolutely 114 00:06:45,360 --> 00:06:47,760 Speaker 1: delicious that they did that, and I love it. His 115 00:06:47,880 --> 00:06:50,800 Speaker 1: record is worse than the Jets. I had to include 116 00:06:50,839 --> 00:06:53,000 Speaker 1: it in my article because it was so much fun. 117 00:06:53,080 --> 00:06:57,720 Speaker 1: And then below it ray I took that photo of 118 00:06:57,920 --> 00:07:01,279 Speaker 1: two bumper stickers that are on some one's truck in 119 00:07:01,400 --> 00:07:08,360 Speaker 1: Yolo County yesterday, And my favorite, I think is even 120 00:07:08,400 --> 00:07:12,840 Speaker 1: my dog hates Scavin Newsom. 121 00:07:12,880 --> 00:07:16,440 Speaker 2: Oh yeah, when you know you've had a long time 122 00:07:16,480 --> 00:07:18,520 Speaker 2: to take a look at what he's done and what 123 00:07:18,560 --> 00:07:21,600 Speaker 2: he's not done, and when it comes to money that's 124 00:07:21,680 --> 00:07:26,280 Speaker 2: just flat missing. Can you run down that list? I'm 125 00:07:26,320 --> 00:07:27,760 Speaker 2: sure you're you're quite able to. 126 00:07:29,240 --> 00:07:35,200 Speaker 1: Yeah, it is unbelievable. I mean, well, the most recent, frankly, 127 00:07:35,520 --> 00:07:40,560 Speaker 1: is courtesy of doctor Oz, the home hospice healthcare money 128 00:07:40,600 --> 00:07:46,280 Speaker 1: that has disappeared. That is absolutely shocking. We've got the 129 00:07:46,400 --> 00:07:49,680 Speaker 1: thirty one anywhere from thirty one billion to fifty four 130 00:07:49,720 --> 00:07:55,160 Speaker 1: billion lost in the unemployment fraud during COVID, and again 131 00:07:56,120 --> 00:07:58,920 Speaker 1: that was so deliberate. It makes me sick because what 132 00:07:59,080 --> 00:08:03,520 Speaker 1: the what they are ed D did under the California 133 00:08:03,600 --> 00:08:07,640 Speaker 1: Labor Agency is they lifted all the guard rails that 134 00:08:07,680 --> 00:08:10,080 Speaker 1: were put in place to make sure something like this 135 00:08:10,160 --> 00:08:13,600 Speaker 1: couldn't happen. So it's like double fraud. It makes it 136 00:08:13,640 --> 00:08:18,760 Speaker 1: even worse. Ray. So, I mean, there is so much 137 00:08:18,880 --> 00:08:21,160 Speaker 1: right the home. Where's the homeless money? Where's the thirty 138 00:08:21,200 --> 00:08:25,520 Speaker 1: seven billion that our legislative analyst has identified that you know, 139 00:08:25,600 --> 00:08:30,120 Speaker 1: we think has gone primarily to you know, NGOs and 140 00:08:30,720 --> 00:08:35,280 Speaker 1: nonprofit organizations that magically popped up. You know since since 141 00:08:35,600 --> 00:08:39,800 Speaker 1: Newsom's been governor. How about all the money that's gone 142 00:08:39,840 --> 00:08:42,319 Speaker 1: to the high speed rail scheme? Where is that There's 143 00:08:42,320 --> 00:08:46,520 Speaker 1: not a piece of track laid and yet billions are gone. 144 00:08:46,640 --> 00:08:49,600 Speaker 1: And I mean I refer to it as a you know, 145 00:08:49,679 --> 00:08:54,040 Speaker 1: it's a jobs program for union members as well as 146 00:08:54,200 --> 00:08:58,040 Speaker 1: a political consultant scam. And that seems to be what 147 00:08:58,240 --> 00:09:04,000 Speaker 1: Gavin Newsom UH has become an expert at, is lining 148 00:09:04,080 --> 00:09:07,760 Speaker 1: the pockets of the rent seekers in our state, and 149 00:09:08,080 --> 00:09:10,760 Speaker 1: a lot of them, unfortunately, are new to rent seeking. 150 00:09:10,920 --> 00:09:12,960 Speaker 1: There was absolutely you know, it's not like it's just 151 00:09:13,040 --> 00:09:16,880 Speaker 1: some some developer who is you know, tapped into the 152 00:09:17,240 --> 00:09:21,880 Speaker 1: administration or you know contractor or you know somebody that 153 00:09:21,960 --> 00:09:24,360 Speaker 1: actually has a business. These are people that came out 154 00:09:24,400 --> 00:09:27,960 Speaker 1: of nowhere, had no businesses and were raking in millions 155 00:09:27,960 --> 00:09:28,440 Speaker 1: of dollars. 156 00:09:28,600 --> 00:09:31,880 Speaker 2: Well, well, will the day ever come that he's going 157 00:09:31,960 --> 00:09:34,160 Speaker 2: to have to uh face up to a lot of this. 158 00:09:34,360 --> 00:09:36,560 Speaker 2: I mean, he just seems like it gets away with it, 159 00:09:36,559 --> 00:09:38,360 Speaker 2: gets away with it, gets away with it, gets away 160 00:09:38,400 --> 00:09:41,280 Speaker 2: with it. What's going to happen now before it hits 161 00:09:41,320 --> 00:09:41,640 Speaker 2: the fan? 162 00:09:42,760 --> 00:09:45,960 Speaker 1: Well, certainly nothing's going to happen in California with our 163 00:09:46,080 --> 00:09:50,240 Speaker 1: corrupt attorney general. The corrupt Fair Political Practices Commission is 164 00:09:50,440 --> 00:09:53,600 Speaker 1: the only Yeah, the only two agencies that have any 165 00:09:53,640 --> 00:09:57,720 Speaker 1: ability to attempt to hold somebody accountable are the Legislative Analyst, 166 00:09:57,840 --> 00:10:01,440 Speaker 1: which you know they expose this stuff, and the State Auditor, 167 00:10:01,920 --> 00:10:05,080 Speaker 1: who I think I have a secret crush on because 168 00:10:05,120 --> 00:10:08,640 Speaker 1: they are constantly out there exposing this stuff. But there 169 00:10:08,800 --> 00:10:13,880 Speaker 1: is talk in Washington, DC of pulling in these corrupt 170 00:10:13,960 --> 00:10:17,160 Speaker 1: governors on subpoenas, And I mean, if we can get 171 00:10:17,160 --> 00:10:21,520 Speaker 1: the Clintons to have to show up and explain themselves 172 00:10:21,600 --> 00:10:25,240 Speaker 1: to Congress, I think there's a few corrupt governors that 173 00:10:25,280 --> 00:10:26,520 Speaker 1: are going to have to do the same. And I 174 00:10:26,520 --> 00:10:28,120 Speaker 1: think Gavin Newsom is at the top of that one. 175 00:10:28,200 --> 00:10:29,800 Speaker 2: Well, I think that's a good example. You bring up 176 00:10:29,840 --> 00:10:31,360 Speaker 2: the Clintons, and I was going to bring them up 177 00:10:31,400 --> 00:10:33,520 Speaker 2: with you as well. Let me take a commercial break 178 00:10:33,600 --> 00:10:37,120 Speaker 2: very quickly here, and we'll talk about what got the 179 00:10:37,160 --> 00:10:40,840 Speaker 2: Clintons to sing a little bit, and maybe the same 180 00:10:40,880 --> 00:10:43,040 Speaker 2: type of thing needs to happen with this governor in 181 00:10:43,080 --> 00:10:46,199 Speaker 2: the state of California. We continue with our conversation with 182 00:10:46,320 --> 00:10:50,680 Speaker 2: Katie Gribes, editor of the California Globe, and we're talking 183 00:10:50,679 --> 00:10:55,280 Speaker 2: about the great pretender today, Gavin Newsom. It was the 184 00:10:55,400 --> 00:11:00,559 Speaker 2: noise of a majority of Democrats on the Oversight Committee 185 00:11:01,400 --> 00:11:03,600 Speaker 2: wanting to throw the book at the Clintons about Epstein 186 00:11:03,840 --> 00:11:06,640 Speaker 2: Epstein that got them to sing, got the mister and 187 00:11:06,640 --> 00:11:09,440 Speaker 2: missus Clinton to finally come to some sort of terms 188 00:11:09,480 --> 00:11:13,199 Speaker 2: to testify as to what their relationship was with this 189 00:11:13,520 --> 00:11:17,760 Speaker 2: dead pedophile. You know, it could possibly the same kind 190 00:11:17,760 --> 00:11:19,920 Speaker 2: of thing be happening. I don't know what it would 191 00:11:19,960 --> 00:11:22,320 Speaker 2: be in the future. To Gavin Newsom. I mean, he 192 00:11:22,440 --> 00:11:24,920 Speaker 2: thinks he owes every single Democrat in the world. And 193 00:11:24,960 --> 00:11:27,120 Speaker 2: if they start turning on him, and I think they are, 194 00:11:28,080 --> 00:11:30,120 Speaker 2: he's gonna he's not gonna make it. He's not going 195 00:11:30,160 --> 00:11:32,240 Speaker 2: to last at all. 196 00:11:32,440 --> 00:11:37,960 Speaker 1: Yeah, you know, I hope you're right. Ray. I continue 197 00:11:38,000 --> 00:11:41,040 Speaker 1: to write exposing what he's done in this state. I 198 00:11:41,160 --> 00:11:44,880 Speaker 1: just published an article at eleven ten today on Gavin 199 00:11:44,960 --> 00:11:48,240 Speaker 1: Newsom how to destroy California in two terms. And I've 200 00:11:48,280 --> 00:11:52,120 Speaker 1: got a list a mile long of if you were 201 00:11:52,200 --> 00:11:56,040 Speaker 1: somebody who was who was installed to destroy the state 202 00:11:56,080 --> 00:11:59,520 Speaker 1: of California, here's how you do it. And it is, 203 00:11:59,720 --> 00:12:02,440 Speaker 1: you know, everything from the fraud we were just discussing 204 00:12:02,960 --> 00:12:07,880 Speaker 1: to you know, passing policies to kill manufacturing, vilifying and 205 00:12:07,920 --> 00:12:12,080 Speaker 1: destroying the oil and gas industry, you know, cutting water 206 00:12:12,200 --> 00:12:15,360 Speaker 1: off to farmers and ranchers, I mean keeping and you 207 00:12:15,400 --> 00:12:19,280 Speaker 1: know the mileage tax, the gas taxes, the billionaires taxing 208 00:12:19,280 --> 00:12:22,480 Speaker 1: their assets and everything. I mean, you just think about 209 00:12:22,559 --> 00:12:26,440 Speaker 1: you you would legalize drugs, decriminalize crimes, and then open 210 00:12:26,559 --> 00:12:30,520 Speaker 1: up the prisons. All these are things that he's done, 211 00:12:30,679 --> 00:12:35,880 Speaker 1: and yet our media in California, of course, is loaths 212 00:12:35,960 --> 00:12:38,880 Speaker 1: to put it together to show you that this is 213 00:12:39,040 --> 00:12:43,760 Speaker 1: really devastating for the state. But because he's got his 214 00:12:43,880 --> 00:12:46,640 Speaker 1: sites set on the White House, I think we're finally 215 00:12:46,679 --> 00:12:51,319 Speaker 1: starting to get some national you know, national players coming 216 00:12:51,400 --> 00:12:55,360 Speaker 1: into our state reporting on this stuff, doing some digging 217 00:12:55,400 --> 00:12:59,240 Speaker 1: of their own. And I do think other politicians have 218 00:12:59,480 --> 00:13:01,240 Speaker 1: absolutely no interest in him. 219 00:13:01,960 --> 00:13:04,560 Speaker 2: I think you're right. I really think you're right. You know. 220 00:13:04,720 --> 00:13:08,440 Speaker 2: And and when it comes to those aspirations, you know, 221 00:13:08,480 --> 00:13:11,520 Speaker 2: the fact that that that turned up in Times Square, 222 00:13:11,640 --> 00:13:14,480 Speaker 2: that that billboard, which I think is hysterical, is it's 223 00:13:14,520 --> 00:13:18,439 Speaker 2: just like they're they're getting wise to this guy. Finally 224 00:13:18,800 --> 00:13:21,160 Speaker 2: they're getting wise that he's not He's not the fair 225 00:13:21,200 --> 00:13:24,120 Speaker 2: haired child that he makes himself out to be. He's 226 00:13:24,160 --> 00:13:28,200 Speaker 2: a big fat phony. And even in the book, you know, 227 00:13:28,320 --> 00:13:31,240 Speaker 2: I mean this, this it's a little thing not wanting 228 00:13:31,280 --> 00:13:33,520 Speaker 2: to include the nineteen year old girlfriend when he was 229 00:13:33,520 --> 00:13:36,120 Speaker 2: thirty nine. I mean that that gives you just kind 230 00:13:36,160 --> 00:13:38,719 Speaker 2: of a cheap view of what he's like as a 231 00:13:38,800 --> 00:13:41,359 Speaker 2: human being exactly. 232 00:13:41,679 --> 00:13:43,640 Speaker 1: You know, if you're going to do your your your 233 00:13:43,720 --> 00:13:47,240 Speaker 1: on autobiography and not relinquish it to somebody to do 234 00:13:47,320 --> 00:13:50,880 Speaker 1: your biography. You're supposed to be taking a pretty hard 235 00:13:50,880 --> 00:13:54,559 Speaker 1: look at things, even you know, there's always there's always 236 00:13:54,600 --> 00:13:57,640 Speaker 1: a way also to you know, he could have talked 237 00:13:57,679 --> 00:14:00,520 Speaker 1: about the nineteen year old girl when he was nine 238 00:14:00,520 --> 00:14:04,040 Speaker 1: and almost you know, mocked himself and shown that he 239 00:14:04,160 --> 00:14:07,600 Speaker 1: was human. But he's not. He's not human. He's he's 240 00:14:07,679 --> 00:14:09,880 Speaker 1: devoid of his soul. He I don't think he has 241 00:14:09,920 --> 00:14:17,319 Speaker 1: a conscience. You know, it's the book is just insulting 242 00:14:17,840 --> 00:14:21,360 Speaker 1: that anybody would buy it. Also, it's you know, I 243 00:14:21,400 --> 00:14:26,680 Speaker 1: pointed out this was pretty interesting that not long ago, 244 00:14:26,880 --> 00:14:29,600 Speaker 1: I wrote an article before the book, before before this 245 00:14:29,720 --> 00:14:34,280 Speaker 1: Vogue article, that pretty much refuted everything he said in 246 00:14:34,360 --> 00:14:38,239 Speaker 1: this Vogue article and his book. So this is obviously 247 00:14:38,360 --> 00:14:44,320 Speaker 1: just a very carefully constructed campaign to rewrite Gavin Newsom's history, 248 00:14:44,760 --> 00:14:48,640 Speaker 1: and I am just praying the big media doesn't allow it. 249 00:14:49,320 --> 00:14:52,520 Speaker 2: And I think because of Gavin Newsom's history, we're seeing 250 00:14:52,560 --> 00:14:55,200 Speaker 2: Steve Hilton do very very well. If I can switch 251 00:14:55,240 --> 00:14:57,800 Speaker 2: gears a little bit. Yeah, we said debate last night, 252 00:14:58,320 --> 00:15:01,800 Speaker 2: a great majority of the the the people that saw 253 00:15:01,800 --> 00:15:05,040 Speaker 2: it supported him. He's raised more money than anybody else. 254 00:15:05,720 --> 00:15:09,360 Speaker 2: He's ahead. He's a Republican, and you know, in part 255 00:15:09,840 --> 00:15:11,760 Speaker 2: I mean, Steve is a good guy. I love him 256 00:15:11,800 --> 00:15:15,080 Speaker 2: to death, I know him extremely well. But at the 257 00:15:15,120 --> 00:15:18,040 Speaker 2: same time, this whole thing has been created by Gavin 258 00:15:18,080 --> 00:15:20,640 Speaker 2: Newsom to sort of hand him a lot of stuff 259 00:15:21,000 --> 00:15:23,400 Speaker 2: that I think he can run with and do well. 260 00:15:23,440 --> 00:15:26,000 Speaker 2: And he's probably gonna wind up winning the governor's seat 261 00:15:26,560 --> 00:15:27,520 Speaker 2: thanks to Gavin Newsom. 262 00:15:28,320 --> 00:15:31,280 Speaker 1: Wouldn't that be interesting? You know? I think what's so 263 00:15:31,360 --> 00:15:37,640 Speaker 1: interesting also is that debate last night is symptomatic of 264 00:15:37,680 --> 00:15:42,080 Speaker 1: what's wrong with the entire gubernatorial campaign right now, in 265 00:15:42,240 --> 00:15:46,840 Speaker 1: that the Democrats, none of whom is particularly memorable or 266 00:15:47,240 --> 00:15:49,880 Speaker 1: any sort of a leader. All they're doing is running 267 00:15:49,920 --> 00:15:54,640 Speaker 1: against Donald Trump. And yet Steve Hilton's out there talking 268 00:15:54,680 --> 00:16:00,720 Speaker 1: about issues, policy, actual ideology that would turn the state around, 269 00:16:01,040 --> 00:16:05,160 Speaker 1: not just I'm a Democrat I hate Trump. Replaced Gavin 270 00:16:05,240 --> 00:16:07,560 Speaker 1: Newsom with another Democrat who hates Trump. 271 00:16:08,360 --> 00:16:09,960 Speaker 2: Well, you know, in recent days there's been a lot 272 00:16:10,000 --> 00:16:13,360 Speaker 2: of talk about comparing California to Minnesota, you know, and 273 00:16:13,760 --> 00:16:15,960 Speaker 2: everything that has been taken there in the way of 274 00:16:16,280 --> 00:16:20,040 Speaker 2: possibly the largest ripoff of taxpayer money in history. But 275 00:16:20,200 --> 00:16:23,160 Speaker 2: we hear you know, some breathing that no, no, no, 276 00:16:23,280 --> 00:16:28,000 Speaker 2: that's in California. It's happened there. I wonder how far 277 00:16:28,080 --> 00:16:29,160 Speaker 2: that is going to be pursued. 278 00:16:30,520 --> 00:16:35,320 Speaker 1: Well, Congressman Kevin Kylie is like a dog with a 279 00:16:35,360 --> 00:16:38,560 Speaker 1: bone on This is for which we can be very grateful. 280 00:16:40,000 --> 00:16:44,200 Speaker 1: There are lots of people writing about it. You know, 281 00:16:44,280 --> 00:16:49,320 Speaker 1: We've got the Susan Crabtree who wrote Fool's Gold along 282 00:16:49,320 --> 00:16:52,520 Speaker 1: with Jed mcfatter. They wrote a lot of that. You know, 283 00:16:52,600 --> 00:16:54,560 Speaker 1: they really touched on a lot of this stuff in 284 00:16:54,600 --> 00:16:57,640 Speaker 1: their book. Now they can drill down again. And Jed 285 00:16:57,760 --> 00:17:01,400 Speaker 1: mcfatter works with Peter Schweizer's so you know that's not 286 00:17:01,400 --> 00:17:05,520 Speaker 1: going to be left alone. There are journalists in our state. 287 00:17:05,600 --> 00:17:08,000 Speaker 1: We now have the California Post in our state, which 288 00:17:08,040 --> 00:17:11,080 Speaker 1: is just doing a bang up job, you know, on 289 00:17:11,720 --> 00:17:14,639 Speaker 1: day after day after day on these topics. Uh. I 290 00:17:14,760 --> 00:17:18,080 Speaker 1: understand the City Journal for the Manhattan Institute is moving 291 00:17:18,080 --> 00:17:21,080 Speaker 1: into California. They're going to be working on this as well. 292 00:17:21,760 --> 00:17:26,320 Speaker 1: So I I think this next few months is going 293 00:17:26,359 --> 00:17:29,320 Speaker 1: to become really really uncomfortable for Gavin Newsom. 294 00:17:29,920 --> 00:17:31,399 Speaker 2: And you just have to wonder how much at this 295 00:17:31,600 --> 00:17:34,440 Speaker 2: is going to be shot across How you know exactly 296 00:17:34,520 --> 00:17:37,520 Speaker 2: how much he's responsible for, obviously exactly. 297 00:17:37,560 --> 00:17:40,480 Speaker 1: Well, yeah, and that's what I know. I prove in 298 00:17:40,520 --> 00:17:45,199 Speaker 1: my article today. These are all his policies, legalizing drugs, 299 00:17:45,280 --> 00:17:48,880 Speaker 1: legalizing sex with minors, legalizing abortion up to the babies birth. 300 00:17:49,080 --> 00:17:52,440 Speaker 1: He signed all those bills into law. He's authorized more 301 00:17:52,440 --> 00:17:56,480 Speaker 1: tribal gambling casinos, just you know, help destroy the public 302 00:17:56,600 --> 00:18:00,080 Speaker 1: education system. Uh, you know, with all this horror of 303 00:18:00,119 --> 00:18:05,399 Speaker 1: a perverted pornographic curriculum going on and all the gender 304 00:18:05,440 --> 00:18:11,080 Speaker 1: bending stuff. I mean, he's even opposed to school choice scholarships. 305 00:18:11,200 --> 00:18:13,760 Speaker 1: So I mean there's a long list of things that 306 00:18:13,840 --> 00:18:17,840 Speaker 1: Gavin Newsom's fingerprints are all over that he cannot run from. 307 00:18:18,280 --> 00:18:22,280 Speaker 2: Well, I look forward to you continuing to beat this 308 00:18:22,359 --> 00:18:24,800 Speaker 2: guy over the head with whatever he puts out there, 309 00:18:25,280 --> 00:18:27,840 Speaker 2: and let's uh, let's just you know, get rid of 310 00:18:27,920 --> 00:18:29,879 Speaker 2: him once and for all.
