But how about 0:01:56.120 --> 0:01:58.360 I get you in the right mood. Let's start off 0:01:58.360 --> 0:02:01.240 today with something we haven't had a chance to do 0:02:01.400 --> 0:02:05.480 in quite a while. There was a very special guest 0:02:05.680 --> 0:02:09.600 at this morning's La City Council meeting, and that very 0:02:09.639 --> 0:02:12.919 special guest is a man by the name of three 0:02:13.000 --> 0:02:18.760 in Shrimp. He's back, he's back, and he had some 0:02:18.800 --> 0:02:24.600 things to say about the conditions on Figueroa. Without further ado, 0:02:25.520 --> 0:02:29.400 here is three in Shrimp at the La City Council meeting. 0:02:30.840 --> 0:02:34.720 So I'm here to talking about the recent that the 0:02:34.800 --> 0:02:38.880 crime hike on the Figaroa Street. I see that. I 0:02:39.000 --> 0:02:42.040 remember that was one month or two months ago. LPD 0:02:42.040 --> 0:02:45.799 did a special operation in Figaroa and I remember they 0:02:46.000 --> 0:02:49.480 pastated legislay one hundred and thirteen people. And then after 0:02:49.520 --> 0:02:51.639 that and right now when I go back to Figaroa, 0:02:52.200 --> 0:02:54.640 all of the people are still coming back to the street. 0:02:54.840 --> 0:02:58.640 It seems like all of your special LPD operation works 0:02:58.680 --> 0:02:59.280 for one. 0:02:59.080 --> 0:03:03.000 Week pretty much when the when the World Cup happened. 0:03:03.040 --> 0:03:08.560 After that, I let the prostitution thrive, world's oldest profession. 0:03:08.480 --> 0:03:10.840 For a week. You got a girls coming from all 0:03:10.880 --> 0:03:13.880 over the world coming to the city of Los Angeles, 0:03:13.919 --> 0:03:17.600 Figaroa Street to pursue their dream, their dream, their American dream, 0:03:17.639 --> 0:03:20.560 to become an American All Star prostitute. 0:03:22.040 --> 0:03:25.960 American all Star prostitute, not just city old prostitute, an 0:03:26.000 --> 0:03:28.040 American all Star prostitute. 0:03:28.160 --> 0:03:30.920 This is where the best of the best convened to do, 0:03:31.040 --> 0:03:32.520 you know what. Street. 0:03:32.720 --> 0:03:35.680 So I just feels like LAPD can only takeing care 0:03:35.760 --> 0:03:37.760 of the crime on figure War Street for one week 0:03:37.960 --> 0:03:40.480 and then the other fifty one week of the year, 0:03:40.720 --> 0:03:44.040 nobody cares. I disagree with the city attorney, I disagree 0:03:44.080 --> 0:03:47.840 with our council member Blue mandingo. Where is your mandingo 0:03:48.080 --> 0:03:51.080 on the Figaroa Street? Where is the one we're taking 0:03:51.080 --> 0:03:53.560 care of the criminals with your bandingo girls? 0:03:53.800 --> 0:04:01.960 Okay, thank you. There's so much actual civics going on 0:04:02.080 --> 0:04:05.440 at city Hall every single day. Well, it's like mister 0:04:05.520 --> 0:04:10.600 Smith goes to Washington, isn't it. Speaking of mister Smith 0:04:10.640 --> 0:04:14.920 goes to Washington. Somebody ditched the state. That's right. 0:04:15.080 --> 0:04:20.400 Gavin Newsom says, his work here is complete, so it's 0:04:20.480 --> 0:04:23.000 time for him to go to the state of Michigan 0:04:23.520 --> 0:04:27.719 to campaign on behalf of Abdul all Sied and other 0:04:27.760 --> 0:04:30.320 Democrats running for office in that swing state. 0:04:31.200 --> 0:04:35.760 Gavin Newsom because there's nothing going on here that deserves 0:04:35.760 --> 0:04:41.400 his attention. Not homelessness, not crime, not fires, not the 0:04:41.520 --> 0:04:47.280 legislative session, the housing crisis, the energy crisis, None of 0:04:47.279 --> 0:04:50.560 that matters. He needs to go spend a week in 0:04:50.760 --> 0:04:55.760 Michigan to campaign for Democrats up and down that state. 0:04:56.520 --> 0:04:59.240 And have you seen that Abdul all Sayed is putting 0:04:59.240 --> 0:05:03.080 out music vide videos where he's portraying the Blues Clues 0:05:03.120 --> 0:05:10.480 guy and he's doing country Western music videos. Well, the 0:05:10.480 --> 0:05:13.839 theater kids are now in control of the world. They 0:05:13.920 --> 0:05:17.440 know how to get attention. This is what the one 0:05:17.520 --> 0:05:21.440 thing that the Democrat Party doesn't want to destroy here 0:05:21.560 --> 0:05:25.080 with this strange relationship with the DSA is there's a 0:05:25.080 --> 0:05:28.120 lot of young people running who have some sort of 0:05:28.200 --> 0:05:31.560 charisma and they know how to get attention on social media, 0:05:31.920 --> 0:05:35.360 which is the exact opposite of a Chuck Schumer type. 0:05:36.080 --> 0:05:38.240 I like that woman that was running against him in 0:05:38.279 --> 0:05:41.719 the primary, the loud one with the big sunglasses. 0:05:43.279 --> 0:05:50.400 Was that Mallory? Yeah, the one I call Haley Mills. Well, 0:05:50.520 --> 0:05:53.279 let's see what Gavin is doing as he ditched the 0:05:53.320 --> 0:05:57.760 state to go kiss the ring in Michigan. Here is 0:05:57.880 --> 0:05:59.880 Fox forty in Sacramento. 0:06:00.320 --> 0:06:03.320 Fox Sport is your local election headquarters. Gavin Newsom is 0:06:03.360 --> 0:06:06.000 on the campaign trail out of state the California governors 0:06:06.000 --> 0:06:10.080 in Michigan today campaigning for Democrats ahead of the November midterms, 0:06:10.120 --> 0:06:13.040 and he's making no secret of his goald. 0:06:13.320 --> 0:06:15.960 Do you think Abdul wanted to meet with Gavin or 0:06:16.040 --> 0:06:19.120 was this just kind of forced upon him? Could be 0:06:19.160 --> 0:06:20.320 an arranged marriage? 0:06:20.440 --> 0:06:22.840 And why is it, by the way that he always 0:06:22.880 --> 0:06:26.560 has the shirt unbuttoned down to his navel, yet he 0:06:26.680 --> 0:06:28.120 makes his wife wear the key. 0:06:28.120 --> 0:06:33.880 Job Okay, then, no, it's true. 0:06:34.520 --> 0:06:38.039 Every time I see her she's all covered up, But 0:06:38.160 --> 0:06:40.159 he looks like he's ready to get it on with 0:06:40.200 --> 0:06:42.000 a prostitute. 0:06:42.760 --> 0:06:47.920 Taking on President Trump and securing a Democratic majority in Congress. Republicans, though, 0:06:47.920 --> 0:06:51.000 accused Newsom of trying to build his own national profile 0:06:51.040 --> 0:06:53.800 ahead of a potential twenty twenty eight run for president. 0:06:54.160 --> 0:06:57.720 Are you telling me that Gavin Newsom only cares about himself? 0:06:58.960 --> 0:06:59.920 That's hard to believe. 0:07:00.880 --> 0:07:02.880 Thanks for joining us tonight for Fox forty News at 0:07:02.880 --> 0:07:06.080 five thirty. I'm Niki Lorenzo. Fox forty Capitol reporter Aton 0:07:06.120 --> 0:07:08.000 Wallace has a look at who knew some plans to 0:07:08.000 --> 0:07:13.280 meet within Michigan and has reaction from critics. 0:07:11.840 --> 0:07:14.160 To maying, sure that we win the United States Senate. 0:07:14.320 --> 0:07:17.080 California Governor Gavin knew something with that message as he 0:07:17.200 --> 0:07:19.320 campaigns with Democrats in Michigan. 0:07:19.640 --> 0:07:21.840 Wait, wasn't he the guy that wanted to ban all 0:07:21.920 --> 0:07:23.560 the cars that rely on oil? 0:07:24.680 --> 0:07:27.960 Yes, and in fact, we have a mandate that we 0:07:28.000 --> 0:07:32.360 cannot buy gas powered cars as of twenty thirty five, 0:07:32.800 --> 0:07:37.280 nine years from now, and he went to Michigan, where 0:07:37.320 --> 0:07:41.640 all the cars are manufactured. Why would anyone in Michigan. 0:07:41.720 --> 0:07:45.720 Listen to this fool. I want to know what local 0:07:45.760 --> 0:07:48.480 state representatives think they're going to get a boost from 0:07:48.520 --> 0:07:53.720 having Gavin Newsome because he doesn't tailor his message for 0:07:54.000 --> 0:07:57.160 the state that he's campaigning in. He doesn't know or 0:07:57.200 --> 0:08:00.600 care anything about Michigan. I saw a gave a Newsom 0:08:00.720 --> 0:08:04.640 rally where after Prop fifty pasted, he went to Houston 0:08:04.920 --> 0:08:07.560 to have a rally in Texas. I know he starts 0:08:07.600 --> 0:08:13.160 talking about in Houston, Texas, how great California is. Texans 0:08:13.160 --> 0:08:14.960 don't care. Well. 0:08:15.080 --> 0:08:17.320 I saw him speaking to a group of people in 0:08:17.400 --> 0:08:20.360 Michigan and it looked like there were all of seventeen 0:08:20.440 --> 0:08:23.480 people there and they all had great ponytails. 0:08:23.560 --> 0:08:28.320 And that was just the man. You remember earlier this 0:08:28.440 --> 0:08:32.120 year when Gavin went to Nevada to campaign for the 0:08:32.120 --> 0:08:35.280 mayor of Las Vegas campaign, and he was in a 0:08:35.360 --> 0:08:37.240 room with maybe ten people. 0:08:39.440 --> 0:08:43.559 Nobody. Nobody is buying what this Charlotte and is selling. 0:08:44.360 --> 0:08:47.240 Gavin, you'd be more effective just going on TikTok live 0:08:47.280 --> 0:08:48.960 and selling emojis for a penny. 0:08:50.000 --> 0:08:53.000 The governor in the Wolverine state to campaign for Democratic 0:08:53.040 --> 0:08:56.319 candidates running for the state House and urging party unity 0:08:56.400 --> 0:08:58.760 all in a trip that included a meeting with US 0:08:58.760 --> 0:09:02.439 Senate candidate Abdul said, less than a week after l 0:09:02.480 --> 0:09:06.040 said won a close and bitter Democratic primary race against 0:09:06.200 --> 0:09:07.160 fellow Demo. 0:09:08.240 --> 0:09:11.600 She's kind of like the female Chris Farley. I'm now 0:09:11.679 --> 0:09:14.440 going to be so ruined where i can't remember if 0:09:14.440 --> 0:09:16.599 her name is Haley Mills or Hailey Stevens. 0:09:17.480 --> 0:09:20.240 Well, according to my text message to Alex Michaelson, it's 0:09:20.280 --> 0:09:21.400 Hailey Mills. 0:09:22.760 --> 0:09:24.199 Democrat to Hailey Stevens. 0:09:24.240 --> 0:09:26.360 There we go, it's Hailey Stevens. I'm going to commit 0:09:26.480 --> 0:09:30.440 that to memory, even though I'm notoriously awful with names. Goodness, 0:09:30.440 --> 0:09:32.079 that's really me. 0:09:32.240 --> 0:09:35.280 The focus is the things that united us together minus together, 0:09:36.040 --> 0:09:37.240 not our interesting differences. 0:09:37.360 --> 0:09:38.400 It comes as Democrats. 0:09:38.440 --> 0:09:42.600 He speaking there to a group of United Auto Workers. Yes, 0:09:43.400 --> 0:09:47.240 I'm sure they love Gavin. I'm sure they don't know 0:09:47.320 --> 0:09:49.240 the fact that he wants to put them out of work. 0:09:49.880 --> 0:09:53.839 Oh, they might flip at least three seats in the 0:09:53.960 --> 0:09:56.720 US House of Representatives to take back the majority in 0:09:56.800 --> 0:09:59.880 that chamber, and at least four seats in the US Senate. 0:10:00.160 --> 0:10:02.920 And doing so, says Newsom, will lead to this the 0:10:03.080 --> 0:10:08.200 end of Donald Trump's presidency, Newsom's trip coming. 0:10:08.280 --> 0:10:12.000 What's with the uh? He's almost doing the thing that 0:10:12.080 --> 0:10:14.600 you're not allowed to do it Cleveland Indians games anymore. 0:10:14.960 --> 0:10:18.280 Yeah, he looks like, you know, when you're gonna upgrade 0:10:18.280 --> 0:10:20.640 the color of your belt over karate class and you 0:10:20.679 --> 0:10:21.760 got to chop through the wood. 0:10:23.600 --> 0:10:28.960 Everybody's kung fu fighting in Michigan. What are you doing, Gavin? 0:10:30.440 --> 0:10:32.560 This is what we try to do our best to 0:10:32.640 --> 0:10:36.240 describe to our radio listeners what he's doing. But sometimes 0:10:36.280 --> 0:10:38.200 you gotta go pull on the live feed and see 0:10:38.240 --> 0:10:42.280 Gavin in action because he he is a strange, strange 0:10:42.360 --> 0:10:45.439 creetzer John I don't like dot com. I talk with 0:10:45.480 --> 0:10:48.520 my hands a lot. But he looks like he's coming 0:10:48.559 --> 0:10:53.120 down off a heroin with the hand gingers. Notice how 0:10:54.360 --> 0:10:56.959 he's on as he's off the cuff, because he's got 0:10:56.960 --> 0:10:58.120 his sleeves rolled up. 0:10:58.480 --> 0:11:03.280 Literally, he's like Rob Bonta.

I don't 0:12:54.000 --> 0:12:56.200 think he did. But let's give a listen. 0:12:56.480 --> 0:12:58.280 I want to get political, reverend, but we got an 0:12:58.320 --> 0:13:00.000 evasive species in the White House. 0:13:00.160 --> 0:13:06.800 That's true, that's right. You know he's running for president. 0:13:06.840 --> 0:13:13.880 When Gavin goes to a historically black church, oh boy, 0:13:15.720 --> 0:13:19.640 there is not one aspect of Newsom that comes off 0:13:19.679 --> 0:13:20.640 as authentic. 0:13:21.720 --> 0:13:24.120 Why is it always the black churches that they go to? 0:13:24.280 --> 0:13:26.280 How come you never see him at I don't know, 0:13:27.040 --> 0:13:31.120 someplace the Armenians go to or the Koreans. 0:13:32.960 --> 0:13:36.040 What an interesting point Latvian orthodox. 0:13:37.320 --> 0:13:41.640 Political move That's the analysis from Republican political analyst Matt Clink. 0:13:41.960 --> 0:13:44.960 He notes Michigan is a key swing state Newsom will 0:13:45.000 --> 0:13:47.520 need to win should he run for president in twenty 0:13:47.559 --> 0:13:48.080 twenty eight. 0:13:48.320 --> 0:13:51.439 But Clink also auto workers are totally getting behind Gavin. 0:13:53.520 --> 0:13:58.760 What what made him think that that was fertile ground 0:13:58.800 --> 0:14:03.480 for him? His whole presentation here was putting those people 0:14:03.520 --> 0:14:05.679 on edd. 0:14:05.200 --> 0:14:07.959 Who has this warning for news about who he meets with. 0:14:08.000 --> 0:14:11.120 There, the question becomes, is you know how close does 0:14:11.160 --> 0:14:16.440 he want to get to a pretty radical candidate, abdulah Sayed, 0:14:16.480 --> 0:14:20.240 who won the Democratic primary, and while he doesn't call 0:14:20.320 --> 0:14:23.680 himself a Democratic Socialist, he then in the next sentence 0:14:23.720 --> 0:14:25.880 turnarounds and advocates for all the policies. 0:14:26.440 --> 0:14:30.680 He says he's not DSA, but well maybe he's DSA light. 0:14:32.920 --> 0:14:36.400 Pornia Republican legislators are blasting news, some accusing him of 0:14:36.400 --> 0:14:39.960 putting his potential presidential ambitions ahead of his role as 0:14:40.040 --> 0:14:41.040 California governor. 0:14:41.280 --> 0:14:43.640 This is just another press release so he can run for. 0:14:43.640 --> 0:14:46.960 President of the United States and the Democratic It's not 0:14:47.000 --> 0:14:47.880 an important thing. 0:14:48.800 --> 0:14:54.080 But can somebody get Tony Strickland a better webcam? Is 0:14:54.080 --> 0:14:56.880 is worse than mine used to be? It really is. 0:14:57.680 --> 0:15:00.200 Come on. I know you get paid a decent salary. 0:15:00.400 --> 0:15:02.120 I know you got to live at Huntington Beach and 0:15:02.120 --> 0:15:04.880 that's expensive, but come on, Tony, you can do better. 0:15:05.040 --> 0:15:09.920 Now here's a question. If Abdul Alsayed is DSA light. 0:15:11.240 --> 0:15:13.600 Is he endorsed by Dylan mulvainy. 0:15:13.080 --> 0:15:19.280 Two sided activist Dolores where to echoing Newsom's message urging 0:15:19.360 --> 0:15:22.440 voters to do all they can to take on Trump. 0:15:22.440 --> 0:15:24.440 To bite that because we did not let them and 0:15:24.520 --> 0:15:26.840 the Trumpet administration take away our democracy. 0:15:26.920 --> 0:15:29.640 And Newsom's trip was paid for with his campaign funds, 0:15:29.840 --> 0:15:31.720 not with taxpayer dollars. 0:15:31.840 --> 0:15:37.600 Which is not necessarily true because, as you are well aware, 0:15:38.000 --> 0:15:42.120 Gavin Newsom has to have a CHP security detail whenever 0:15:42.200 --> 0:15:45.160 he travels outside of the state. So even though the 0:15:45.480 --> 0:15:48.680 tickets were booked with campaign money, which what does he 0:15:48.720 --> 0:15:51.640 have campaign money for when he's not running for anything anymore? 0:15:52.440 --> 0:15:55.720 The CHP security detail that now has to fly to 0:15:55.840 --> 0:15:59.360 Michigan and back that we are paying for. Well, and 0:15:59.400 --> 0:15:59.880 how about that? 0:16:00.040 --> 0:16:04.600 Yes, his communication staff, which is in theory supposed to 0:16:04.640 --> 0:16:08.800 be doing state business, is hyping up his trip which 0:16:08.840 --> 0:16:14.320 is entirely for political purposes all over social media. They're 0:16:14.360 --> 0:16:17.680 not paid for by his campaign account, they're paid for 0:16:17.800 --> 0:16:21.000 by the taxpayers, yet they're acting as if they work 0:16:21.040 --> 0:16:24.720 for his presidential campaign and not for the people of California. 0:16:25.440 --> 0:16:29.080 Meantime, he's expected to return to California later this week 0:16:29.440 --> 0:16:32.160 reporting at the state capitol covering local news that matters. 0:16:32.200 --> 0:16:34.600 Saton Wallace, Fox forty. 0:16:34.320 --> 0:16:38.480 News So there you go, Gavin Newsom once again fleeing 0:16:38.520 --> 0:16:42.320 the state because nothing's going on here in California to 0:16:42.400 --> 0:16:46.120 go campaign for people in Michigan who either don't know 0:16:46.160 --> 0:16:48.480 who he is or don't care, or if they do 0:16:48.640 --> 0:16:51.160 know who he is, they're probably not a fan. I 0:16:51.200 --> 0:16:55.040 hope his flight home cancels. Is he flying American? 0:16:55.920 --> 0:16:59.080 Well, if he's flying to Detroit, he's probably flying on Delta. 0:16:59.520 --> 0:17:04.439 Oh boy, weren't they the ones that took over Northwest Orient? 0:17:06.960 --> 0:17:11.560 They had a base out there.

I know that. 0:18:48.720 --> 0:18:51.080 People like to go to Las Vegas and bet on 0:18:51.160 --> 0:18:56.159 virtually everything, and I include myself with that remark, but 0:18:56.240 --> 0:18:59.480 I did not know you can bet on the wildfires. 0:18:59.800 --> 0:19:05.160 Apparently, Randy, you can. We are truly in the wild 0:19:05.400 --> 0:19:10.159 wild West when it comes to this new world of 0:19:10.720 --> 0:19:17.359 online gambling trading markets, and one of the strange things 0:19:17.400 --> 0:19:22.760 that has occurred is bets that may be in poor taste, 0:19:22.800 --> 0:19:27.119 to say the least, like which world leader is about 0:19:27.119 --> 0:19:31.040 to get assassinated next? You can bet on that. You 0:19:31.080 --> 0:19:34.119 can bet on if a plane is going to crash, 0:19:34.680 --> 0:19:38.399 and you can bet on what region is going to 0:19:38.480 --> 0:19:45.680 have a devastating wildfire next. Our two senators in California, 0:19:45.840 --> 0:19:50.600 Alex Padilla and Adam Schiff, would like to have some 0:19:50.640 --> 0:19:57.480 federal regulation to ban this practice because the platform in question, polymarket, 0:19:58.080 --> 0:20:01.520 isn't going to do with it without. But let's find 0:20:01.560 --> 0:20:07.080 out who the hell is betting on the probability of 0:20:07.359 --> 0:20:13.000 wildfires in the state of California. For more, here is 0:20:13.040 --> 0:20:15.560 ABC seven in the Bay. 0:20:15.280 --> 0:20:18.360 California is always dangerous. Wildfire season is now the focus 0:20:18.400 --> 0:20:21.439 of political pressure for the attention it's receiving from the 0:20:21.560 --> 0:20:26.400 online gambling industry. This seems crazy, but it's true. The 0:20:26.440 --> 0:20:29.359 public can place bets on the areas of the state 0:20:29.600 --> 0:20:32.600 that could burn next. If a wildfire actually erupts. 0:20:32.680 --> 0:20:38.680 I wonder what the odds are for that the state 0:20:38.760 --> 0:20:42.000 is a tinderbox. How much, how honestly, how much could 0:20:42.040 --> 0:20:44.280 you be making. It's not like this is a long shot. 0:20:44.760 --> 0:20:47.000 Tell you what, you lay one hundred dollars down that 0:20:47.080 --> 0:20:48.440 Malibu's going to burn this. 0:20:48.440 --> 0:20:55.439 Year, congrats, I guess it's such a strange thing. You 0:20:55.440 --> 0:20:59.080 know what's so funny about this whole thing is there 0:20:59.160 --> 0:21:04.560 was that mass fight just four years ago where you 0:21:04.720 --> 0:21:09.200 had competing interests, the Vegas casinos and the tribal casinos 0:21:09.520 --> 0:21:14.359 putting competing measures on the ballot in twenty twenty two 0:21:14.880 --> 0:21:21.720 to legalize sports gambling, and they spent so much money 0:21:21.800 --> 0:21:24.919 against each other poison the well that nobody bet on 0:21:25.000 --> 0:21:31.160 any of it. So what happened was nobody voted yes 0:21:31.160 --> 0:21:34.880 on any of those things. So a couple of years later, 0:21:35.480 --> 0:21:40.800 this new technology comes out, these predictive markets which they're gambling, 0:21:40.920 --> 0:21:44.840 but because you're playing against another person and there's no 0:21:44.880 --> 0:21:49.120 one that counts as the house, it has completely changed 0:21:49.160 --> 0:21:52.840 the definition of gambling, which means that you can do 0:21:53.000 --> 0:21:56.280 all kinds of sports gambling in the state of California, 0:21:56.320 --> 0:22:01.480 even though it's not technically legal and when it comes 0:22:01.520 --> 0:22:04.760 to betting on all kinds of other things. We covered 0:22:04.760 --> 0:22:09.440 a lot about the presidential race, and we have yet 0:22:09.480 --> 0:22:15.119 to see any kind of action from Sacramento or Washington 0:22:15.560 --> 0:22:18.080 in wanting to limit the things that you can bet on, 0:22:18.600 --> 0:22:22.879 except for the very obvious cases of insider trading that 0:22:22.920 --> 0:22:26.359 have happened, including a soldier that was part of the 0:22:26.400 --> 0:22:30.000 Maduro raid that bet that Maduro was going to get arrested. 0:22:30.320 --> 0:22:33.679 Well, here's what I don't understand about these things. If 0:22:33.720 --> 0:22:36.080 you're betting on a horse, or you're betting on a 0:22:36.119 --> 0:22:39.480 football team, or you're betting on something along those lines, 0:22:39.960 --> 0:22:43.240 you have no impact on the outcome. But if you're 0:22:43.240 --> 0:22:46.560 betting on which area is going to experience a fire, 0:22:47.040 --> 0:22:49.879 in theory, you could be the one that sets the fire. 0:22:50.119 --> 0:22:53.760 So why in the world would you ever let someone 0:22:53.880 --> 0:22:57.520 bet on something where they could, in theory, impact the 0:22:57.560 --> 0:23:00.320 outcome or have insider knowledge, as you shaid. 0:23:01.240 --> 0:23:04.320 Wasn't it I think I have this story right. Wasn't 0:23:04.359 --> 0:23:08.480 it that the guy that runs Trump's teleprompter was betting 0:23:08.560 --> 0:23:10.960 on poly market the things that he knew Trump was 0:23:11.000 --> 0:23:13.080 going to say in the speech. Because there's people that 0:23:13.119 --> 0:23:16.359 make money on polymarket or Calshi if Trump has a 0:23:16.440 --> 0:23:18.240 non sequitor in the middle of a speech where he 0:23:18.359 --> 0:23:21.040 just says trans. 0:23:22.080 --> 0:23:24.720 Yeah, but by allowing people to bet on these things, 0:23:24.760 --> 0:23:26.119 you're opening up the door to that. 0:23:27.119 --> 0:23:30.680 Yep, California State Senators Alex Padilla, Adam Schiff and seven 0:23:30.720 --> 0:23:33.560 of their Senate colleagues are now calling on these online 0:23:33.600 --> 0:23:37.200 trading websites to stop offering wildfire bets. 0:23:37.720 --> 0:23:38.280 ABC seven. 0:23:38.320 --> 0:23:40.760 I would assume South Bay reporter Dustin Dorsey has more 0:23:40.760 --> 0:23:42.960 on the dangers of the sort of gambling Dustin. 0:23:44.560 --> 0:23:47.840
