1
00:00:00,280 --> 00:00:03,400
Speaker 1: And we continue at one oh five in the afternoon

2
00:00:03,440 --> 00:00:06,640
Speaker 1: on the John Phillips Show. Mister Randy wangs across the

3
00:00:06,680 --> 00:00:07,640
Speaker 1: glass John.

4
00:00:07,720 --> 00:00:11,119
Speaker 2: The California High Speed Rail project that is supposed to

5
00:00:11,160 --> 00:00:18,120
Speaker 2: go from Merced to Bakersfield just canceled the downtown Bakersfield station.

6
00:00:24,079 --> 00:00:30,200
Speaker 1: Well that was bound to happen. Eight hundred two two

7
00:00:30,200 --> 00:00:33,159
Speaker 1: two five two two two is the telephone number one

8
00:00:33,200 --> 00:00:36,800
Speaker 1: eight hundred two two two five two two two. It

9
00:00:36,920 --> 00:00:39,320
Speaker 1: is our pleasure to welcome our next guest to the program.

10
00:00:39,520 --> 00:00:42,559
Speaker 1: He is the Armed Liberal himself. You can follow him

11
00:00:42,560 --> 00:00:47,240
Speaker 1: on x at The Armed Liberal, The Armed Liberal Mark Danzinger.

12
00:00:47,440 --> 00:00:50,839
Speaker 3: Welcome each John, How are you good afternoon?

13
00:00:51,640 --> 00:00:53,840
Speaker 1: I'm good, Thank you so much for joining us. So

14
00:00:54,600 --> 00:00:57,360
Speaker 1: we just had a big primary election in the state

15
00:00:57,400 --> 00:01:01,280
Speaker 1: of New York earlier this week where socialist New York

16
00:01:01,320 --> 00:01:06,080
Speaker 1: City Mayor Zoran mam Donnie's slate of candidates, where he

17
00:01:06,120 --> 00:01:08,920
Speaker 1: got behind three candidates for various seats in the House

18
00:01:08,920 --> 00:01:13,160
Speaker 1: of Representatives. They all won. He pulled off a hat trick,

19
00:01:13,600 --> 00:01:18,480
Speaker 1: including defeating a long time incumbent Democratic congressman who was

20
00:01:18,560 --> 00:01:22,440
Speaker 1: also chair of the Hispanic Caucus. Now it looks like

21
00:01:22,640 --> 00:01:27,200
Speaker 1: Colorado may be the next state where that happens, as

22
00:01:27,240 --> 00:01:30,840
Speaker 1: Socialists are prepared to knock off incumbent Democratic members of

23
00:01:30,880 --> 00:01:35,560
Speaker 1: Congress and win various primaries there. In the state of Missouri,

24
00:01:35,720 --> 00:01:40,080
Speaker 1: it looks like former congresswoman and DSA candidate Corey Bush

25
00:01:40,400 --> 00:01:43,200
Speaker 1: is likely to come back to the United States Congress.

26
00:01:43,920 --> 00:01:46,840
Speaker 1: What do you make of what happened on Tuesday and

27
00:01:46,920 --> 00:01:50,080
Speaker 1: what's on the horizon And the DSA looks like it

28
00:01:50,160 --> 00:01:51,960
Speaker 1: certainly has the wind in it's back.

29
00:01:53,280 --> 00:01:56,240
Speaker 3: DSAS definitely having its day, there's no question about that.

30
00:01:57,040 --> 00:01:58,800
Speaker 3: One of the things I looked at in New York

31
00:01:59,280 --> 00:02:03,320
Speaker 3: was turnout. And these are democratic primaries, but these are

32
00:02:03,360 --> 00:02:05,760
Speaker 3: districts that are so democratic they might as well be

33
00:02:05,800 --> 00:02:12,080
Speaker 3: the final And you know, in District ten, basically there

34
00:02:12,080 --> 00:02:16,440
Speaker 3: are half a million Democratic registered voters and something like

35
00:02:16,760 --> 00:02:20,600
Speaker 3: one hundred thousand of them voted, and it's pretty consistently

36
00:02:20,800 --> 00:02:24,079
Speaker 3: in the twenty five to twenty percent range that we're

37
00:02:24,080 --> 00:02:28,720
Speaker 3: seeing these kind of turnouts. And what it shows kind

38
00:02:28,760 --> 00:02:31,240
Speaker 3: of me is I don't think the DSA folks have

39
00:02:31,320 --> 00:02:35,360
Speaker 3: like overwhelming support. I think they have a brilliant and

40
00:02:35,440 --> 00:02:40,080
Speaker 3: well crafted political machine. I think the Democratic Party has

41
00:02:40,160 --> 00:02:44,400
Speaker 3: kind of given up on some of its foundational party activities, like,

42
00:02:44,639 --> 00:02:47,280
Speaker 3: you know, get out to vote, you know, doing all

43
00:02:47,280 --> 00:02:50,680
Speaker 3: the sorts of mechanics that make people win elections. They

44
00:02:50,720 --> 00:02:53,840
Speaker 3: just sort of don't bother anymore. But more importantly, and

45
00:02:53,840 --> 00:02:56,280
Speaker 3: this is something I know you've heard from me freaking

46
00:02:56,480 --> 00:03:00,280
Speaker 3: endlessly for years and years and years, what exactly is

47
00:03:00,320 --> 00:03:04,359
Speaker 3: a Democratic Party stand for? Like why should I, as

48
00:03:04,400 --> 00:03:08,720
Speaker 3: somebody who's a random person living in you know, in

49
00:03:08,760 --> 00:03:12,560
Speaker 3: New York, what would make me think that, boy, if

50
00:03:12,600 --> 00:03:14,480
Speaker 3: I vote for those Democrats, I'm going to have a

51
00:03:14,520 --> 00:03:16,640
Speaker 3: better life. What's going to change? What's going to be

52
00:03:16,680 --> 00:03:20,519
Speaker 3: positive for me? And this isn't a new theme for me, right,

53
00:03:20,520 --> 00:03:23,360
Speaker 3: I mean, I tell a story where years ago I

54
00:03:23,360 --> 00:03:27,239
Speaker 3: asked a couple of Democratic political operatives. We're a lunch

55
00:03:27,800 --> 00:03:30,880
Speaker 3: kind of talk in this fancy restaurant in West la

56
00:03:31,120 --> 00:03:33,399
Speaker 3: The hostess in this restaurant makes about forty five rand

57
00:03:33,440 --> 00:03:37,320
Speaker 3: a year. Let's assume that she's a single mom with

58
00:03:37,480 --> 00:03:40,520
Speaker 3: two kids, has to live close to work, so she's

59
00:03:40,560 --> 00:03:43,720
Speaker 3: rent poor. She doesn't have a rich ex husband, she's

60
00:03:43,720 --> 00:03:47,640
Speaker 3: not getting massive alimony checks. So tell me what exactly

61
00:03:47,680 --> 00:03:49,600
Speaker 3: the Democratic Party has done for her in the last

62
00:03:49,640 --> 00:03:52,520
Speaker 3: twenty five years and this is probably twenty years ago

63
00:03:52,560 --> 00:03:57,040
Speaker 3: that I asked the question and he answers nothing, then nothing.

64
00:03:57,400 --> 00:04:02,240
Speaker 3: Now Democratic Party has lost plot and it needs to

65
00:04:02,440 --> 00:04:07,320
Speaker 3: find a plot real freaking quickly, because the people who

66
00:04:07,360 --> 00:04:11,600
Speaker 3: are going to take over what's left. What's the guy

67
00:04:11,600 --> 00:04:15,960
Speaker 3: on the internet who talks about take over a respected institution,

68
00:04:16,560 --> 00:04:20,839
Speaker 3: kill it, skin it, wear its skin. You know. The

69
00:04:20,920 --> 00:04:23,240
Speaker 3: people who are taking over are planning to wear the

70
00:04:23,279 --> 00:04:26,400
Speaker 3: skin of the Democratic Party and do things that I

71
00:04:26,400 --> 00:04:29,039
Speaker 3: don't think many of us are going to like, because

72
00:04:29,040 --> 00:04:31,279
Speaker 3: if I look at the cities where they've had power,

73
00:04:31,720 --> 00:04:34,240
Speaker 3: if I look at Seattle, if I look at Portland,

74
00:04:34,320 --> 00:04:37,440
Speaker 3: if I look at Chicago, laed will a big extent,

75
00:04:38,520 --> 00:04:42,479
Speaker 3: those cities aren't thriving, and they should be if these

76
00:04:42,920 --> 00:04:44,800
Speaker 3: ideas were really good ideas.

77
00:04:46,560 --> 00:04:49,200
Speaker 1: I want to read for you a statement that was

78
00:04:49,279 --> 00:04:52,720
Speaker 1: made by the co chair of the DSA regarding these

79
00:04:52,760 --> 00:04:56,360
Speaker 1: primary elections, and have you respond to it. He said, quote,

80
00:04:56,520 --> 00:05:00,240
Speaker 1: we're using the Democratic Party as a ballot access vehicle,

81
00:05:00,680 --> 00:05:04,760
Speaker 1: not because we share its goals. We build our own organization,

82
00:05:05,279 --> 00:05:09,839
Speaker 1: get elected under the Democratic label, caucus with Democrats when

83
00:05:09,839 --> 00:05:13,520
Speaker 1: it's useful, and push our own agenda from the inside.

84
00:05:13,880 --> 00:05:17,599
Speaker 1: We see the Democratic establishment as an obstacle, not a

85
00:05:17,640 --> 00:05:18,839
Speaker 1: home end quote.

86
00:05:20,120 --> 00:05:22,520
Speaker 3: That's pretty much exactly what I mean when I talk

87
00:05:22,560 --> 00:05:26,440
Speaker 3: about wearing its skin, and I cannot believe. You know,

88
00:05:26,520 --> 00:05:30,320
Speaker 3: James Carvel came out, I think today and sort of

89
00:05:30,400 --> 00:05:32,119
Speaker 3: ranted about it, and I think there were a couple

90
00:05:32,160 --> 00:05:36,039
Speaker 3: of Democratic members of Congress who started saying, you know,

91
00:05:36,080 --> 00:05:38,080
Speaker 3: we're going to form a separate caucus. We're going to

92
00:05:38,120 --> 00:05:42,080
Speaker 3: separate out from these DSA folks. But the word somebody

93
00:05:42,160 --> 00:05:44,680
Speaker 3: used was schism, and there's an absolutely aschism in the

94
00:05:44,720 --> 00:05:45,520
Speaker 3: Democratic Party.

95
00:05:46,440 --> 00:05:46,560
Speaker 4: You know.

96
00:05:46,680 --> 00:05:49,760
Speaker 3: Last time we talked, we were talking about Israel Palestine

97
00:05:49,760 --> 00:05:52,159
Speaker 3: a little bit, and one of the things I said is,

98
00:05:52,839 --> 00:05:56,560
Speaker 3: I don't think the Democratic Party is envisioned by these folks,

99
00:05:57,040 --> 00:05:59,680
Speaker 3: has room for people who believe in the existence of Israel.

100
00:06:00,960 --> 00:06:04,599
Speaker 3: And I think that's forget being Jewish, forget any of

101
00:06:04,640 --> 00:06:10,719
Speaker 3: that stuff. Israel is a Western democratic, pluralist state. It

102
00:06:10,839 --> 00:06:14,159
Speaker 3: operates in the kind of way, not exactly the way

103
00:06:14,160 --> 00:06:17,679
Speaker 3: we do, but generically the kind of way that countries

104
00:06:17,720 --> 00:06:22,479
Speaker 3: in Europe and North America do, and that country is

105
00:06:22,520 --> 00:06:24,560
Speaker 3: going to get erased if these people have their way

106
00:06:25,600 --> 00:06:29,200
Speaker 3: and that's because on a fundamental level, the values they

107
00:06:29,200 --> 00:06:33,560
Speaker 3: have are fundamentally different from the values in the Enlightenment,

108
00:06:33,640 --> 00:06:36,159
Speaker 3: which led to kind of the good stuff that we

109
00:06:36,200 --> 00:06:41,080
Speaker 3: see in the West. And I hate sounding like I

110
00:06:41,080 --> 00:06:45,080
Speaker 3: don't know who's some crazy right wing person, because I'm

111
00:06:45,120 --> 00:06:48,000
Speaker 3: absolutely not. But at the same time, I think that

112
00:06:48,040 --> 00:06:56,240
Speaker 3: there's room for a activist government that helps people and

113
00:06:56,360 --> 00:06:59,760
Speaker 3: helps build an economy that my motto lately has been

114
00:07:00,360 --> 00:07:04,760
Speaker 3: more millionaires, fewer billionaires. We want to reverse some of

115
00:07:04,800 --> 00:07:08,520
Speaker 3: the antitrust easing that was done. We want to reverse

116
00:07:08,600 --> 00:07:11,240
Speaker 3: the changes in banking that centralized banking. We want to

117
00:07:11,280 --> 00:07:15,160
Speaker 3: have a sort of economy that has a lot more

118
00:07:15,400 --> 00:07:19,200
Speaker 3: moderate scale enterprises to it, which means we're going to

119
00:07:19,200 --> 00:07:20,880
Speaker 3: have a lot more entrepreneurs, We're going to have a

120
00:07:20,920 --> 00:07:24,880
Speaker 3: lot more middle income people. But we don't nobody's fighting

121
00:07:24,920 --> 00:07:27,480
Speaker 3: for that. And what we have on one hand is

122
00:07:27,520 --> 00:07:31,000
Speaker 3: people who want the government to own everything. Mandamie has

123
00:07:31,440 --> 00:07:34,040
Speaker 3: set out a cleitar playbook for the Governor of New

124
00:07:34,120 --> 00:07:36,240
Speaker 3: York to own a ton of the housing in New York.

125
00:07:37,000 --> 00:07:39,240
Speaker 3: And we have people who have this sort of notion

126
00:07:39,440 --> 00:07:40,920
Speaker 3: that it's all going to be used to it and

127
00:07:40,960 --> 00:07:42,480
Speaker 3: the government's not going to do much of anything.

128
00:07:44,080 --> 00:07:47,000
Speaker 1: Well, some of these candidates that were just elected or

129
00:07:47,040 --> 00:07:50,080
Speaker 1: I guess won their primaries earlier this week in New York.

130
00:07:50,680 --> 00:07:54,600
Speaker 1: I mean, they do believe in the version of socialism

131
00:07:54,600 --> 00:07:56,800
Speaker 1: that we learned about in political science school, where they

132
00:07:56,800 --> 00:07:59,880
Speaker 1: believe the government should own the means of production. And

133
00:08:00,720 --> 00:08:03,080
Speaker 1: one of them just did an interview not long ago

134
00:08:03,160 --> 00:08:04,920
Speaker 1: and said, yeah, would we get luck at One of

135
00:08:05,000 --> 00:08:07,040
Speaker 1: the things that we're going to try to do is

136
00:08:07,040 --> 00:08:10,080
Speaker 1: get rid of TSA PreCheck and have the government to

137
00:08:10,200 --> 00:08:13,160
Speaker 1: take over the airlines. We want the government to own

138
00:08:13,200 --> 00:08:16,800
Speaker 1: American Airlines, United, Southwest, Delta, all of them.

139
00:08:18,040 --> 00:08:21,640
Speaker 3: Well, and that's a real tell because probably half the

140
00:08:21,640 --> 00:08:24,000
Speaker 3: people in America don't fly much, and the half who

141
00:08:24,080 --> 00:08:27,200
Speaker 3: don't fly are people who are genuinely working class. The

142
00:08:27,240 --> 00:08:29,400
Speaker 3: people who fly, and these are the people who are

143
00:08:29,440 --> 00:08:33,240
Speaker 3: DSA and another funny story in a sack, are people

144
00:08:33,240 --> 00:08:39,520
Speaker 3: who are basically upper middle class, advanced degree kind of strivers,

145
00:08:40,120 --> 00:08:43,640
Speaker 3: and for whatever reason, I guess, they feel like the

146
00:08:43,679 --> 00:08:45,960
Speaker 3: world hasn't recognized their genius and this is how they

147
00:08:46,000 --> 00:08:48,480
Speaker 3: have to take it over. I'm in the Bay Area

148
00:08:48,559 --> 00:08:51,080
Speaker 3: right now, hanging out with my kids, and grandkids, and

149
00:08:51,120 --> 00:08:53,200
Speaker 3: we went to a restaurant in Palo Alto the other

150
00:08:53,240 --> 00:08:59,760
Speaker 3: day called Gots and Gots is a thirty dollars burger place. Right,

151
00:09:00,120 --> 00:09:03,720
Speaker 3: that's kind of It's nice. It would be a normal

152
00:09:03,760 --> 00:09:06,480
Speaker 3: restaurant in the middle American city. It's just very extensive here.

153
00:09:07,400 --> 00:09:09,120
Speaker 3: And I'm standing in line and I see a guy

154
00:09:09,160 --> 00:09:11,800
Speaker 3: walk by and he's wearing a Santa Cruz Antifa shirt

155
00:09:13,000 --> 00:09:16,520
Speaker 3: and just started laughing, right, because it's just so perfect,

156
00:09:16,840 --> 00:09:19,520
Speaker 3: and it's just the idea that you know, I'm Antifa,

157
00:09:19,600 --> 00:09:22,200
Speaker 3: but I like a good burger, right. I would never

158
00:09:22,240 --> 00:09:24,800
Speaker 3: go to Denny's. I would never go to McDonald's. I

159
00:09:24,800 --> 00:09:28,080
Speaker 3: would never eat no working class place. And you know,

160
00:09:28,400 --> 00:09:30,280
Speaker 3: I'm not going to nationalize something that's going to make

161
00:09:30,320 --> 00:09:33,200
Speaker 3: a difference to people who are working class. I'm going

162
00:09:33,240 --> 00:09:35,760
Speaker 3: to nationalize something that makes a difference to me because

163
00:09:35,800 --> 00:09:38,840
Speaker 3: I fly all the time. And that's part of my

164
00:09:38,920 --> 00:09:42,120
Speaker 3: frustration with these socialists.

165
00:09:43,880 --> 00:09:47,160
Speaker 1: Why is it do you think that Democratic candidates are

166
00:09:47,280 --> 00:09:52,160
Speaker 1: unwilling to have the debate with these candidates, Because whenever

167
00:09:52,200 --> 00:09:55,120
Speaker 1: I would see a reporter go to one of the

168
00:09:55,120 --> 00:09:58,760
Speaker 1: Democratic candidates in New York and confront them with something

169
00:09:58,800 --> 00:10:02,319
Speaker 1: outrageous that they're upon did, they would just respond by

170
00:10:02,360 --> 00:10:06,080
Speaker 1: pivoting and attacking Donald Trump. They would never say, Okay,

171
00:10:06,080 --> 00:10:09,280
Speaker 1: here's the case for capitalism, and this is why my

172
00:10:09,440 --> 00:10:13,120
Speaker 1: opponent and their beliefs in socialism is wrong. Here's the

173
00:10:13,120 --> 00:10:16,600
Speaker 1: case for having a border and not having open borders

174
00:10:16,679 --> 00:10:21,360
Speaker 1: as my opponent believes we should have. Here's my defense

175
00:10:21,440 --> 00:10:25,319
Speaker 1: of having a police department, while whereas my opponent wants

176
00:10:25,400 --> 00:10:29,079
Speaker 1: to abolish the police and abolish prisons and abolish much

177
00:10:29,120 --> 00:10:32,960
Speaker 1: of what we know of public safety. The Democratic candidates

178
00:10:33,120 --> 00:10:37,560
Speaker 1: seemed afraid to engage them at that level, and they

179
00:10:37,559 --> 00:10:39,560
Speaker 1: would just pivot and attack Donald Trump.

180
00:10:40,880 --> 00:10:42,920
Speaker 3: I think they are afraid. And I think they're afraid

181
00:10:42,960 --> 00:10:47,880
Speaker 3: because somebody once called it the messenger class, right, and respectfully,

182
00:10:47,880 --> 00:10:50,160
Speaker 3: you're part of the messenger class. People who are com

183
00:10:50,160 --> 00:10:53,040
Speaker 3: media or part of the messenger class. People who work

184
00:10:53,040 --> 00:10:55,600
Speaker 3: in academy are part of the messenger class. The people

185
00:10:55,600 --> 00:10:59,080
Speaker 3: who shape and have the discourse that all of us consume,

186
00:11:00,280 --> 00:11:04,119
Speaker 3: and they've all been kind of subsumed into this worldview.

187
00:11:04,520 --> 00:11:06,640
Speaker 3: I mean, think about it. Four years ago, if you

188
00:11:06,679 --> 00:11:10,280
Speaker 3: had said, wait a minute, this is a guy who

189
00:11:10,360 --> 00:11:13,319
Speaker 3: wants to go into a woman's locker room and like

190
00:11:13,559 --> 00:11:16,199
Speaker 3: change with a bunch of women who really are unwilling

191
00:11:16,240 --> 00:11:18,840
Speaker 3: to have him change there. If you had said something

192
00:11:18,880 --> 00:11:20,880
Speaker 3: like that, had said even you know, this is a

193
00:11:20,960 --> 00:11:24,520
Speaker 3: challenging question. This is something we've got to really talk about.

194
00:11:24,960 --> 00:11:28,160
Speaker 3: You were absolutely excluded from public discourse. You got you

195
00:11:28,240 --> 00:11:31,160
Speaker 3: got fired, You've got a race to you know, you

196
00:11:31,160 --> 00:11:34,800
Speaker 3: were you were shamed. And we built this sort of

197
00:11:34,920 --> 00:11:40,679
Speaker 3: reflexive kind of like cringe into our dialogue of if

198
00:11:40,720 --> 00:11:43,040
Speaker 3: you touch one of these third real issues, can't I

199
00:11:43,040 --> 00:11:46,319
Speaker 3: can't say these things that would make the Margory Taylor

200
00:11:46,360 --> 00:11:50,760
Speaker 3: green if I said something like that. And it's interesting

201
00:11:50,800 --> 00:11:54,280
Speaker 3: because a couple of very brave people stood up and said, hey,

202
00:11:54,320 --> 00:11:57,160
Speaker 3: the emperor looking kind of naked there, like this doesn't

203
00:11:57,160 --> 00:11:59,840
Speaker 3: make a lot of sense. And it is course changed.

204
00:12:01,280 --> 00:12:05,480
Speaker 3: And we've gone through four or five waves of discourse

205
00:12:05,559 --> 00:12:08,160
Speaker 3: in the last in the last three or four years, right,

206
00:12:08,200 --> 00:12:12,040
Speaker 3: We've went over We've gone through you know, trans race,

207
00:12:12,640 --> 00:12:15,959
Speaker 3: you know all blah blah blah. And it's the same

208
00:12:16,000 --> 00:12:20,120
Speaker 3: group of people, it's the same organizations, it's the same

209
00:12:20,520 --> 00:12:25,000
Speaker 3: philosophical message, but the foundational content, the lynch kind of

210
00:12:25,000 --> 00:12:27,400
Speaker 3: the message changes and you don't want to take those

211
00:12:27,400 --> 00:12:31,160
Speaker 3: people on. And if you're a politician and the Democratic Party,

212
00:12:31,200 --> 00:12:35,360
Speaker 3: it's worse because the worker bees, the people who make

213
00:12:35,400 --> 00:12:40,840
Speaker 3: a living doing party politics, the young people who volunteer

214
00:12:41,040 --> 00:12:44,679
Speaker 3: or work low wage shops and are really passionate about

215
00:12:44,679 --> 00:12:49,000
Speaker 3: seeing the party succeed, are virtually all of that mindset.

216
00:12:49,880 --> 00:12:51,959
Speaker 3: And if you take that, if the Democratic Party is

217
00:12:51,960 --> 00:12:54,720
Speaker 3: going to rebel, it's going to rebel against the people

218
00:12:54,720 --> 00:12:57,240
Speaker 3: who are like the muscle and sinew of the Democratic Party.

219
00:12:57,400 --> 00:12:59,760
Speaker 3: It's going to be a challenging, freaking year for them.

220
00:13:01,760 --> 00:13:08,040
Speaker 1: Gavin Newsom has positioned himself as the Democratic establishment candidate

221
00:13:08,120 --> 00:13:11,080
Speaker 1: for president. He was the one that was saying Joe

222
00:13:11,080 --> 00:13:14,079
Speaker 1: Biden was putting on a master class and shouldn't get

223
00:13:14,080 --> 00:13:17,800
Speaker 1: out of the race. Was the surrogate for Joe Biden,

224
00:13:17,840 --> 00:13:20,040
Speaker 1: and then when Joe Biden dropped out, he became a

225
00:13:20,080 --> 00:13:24,240
Speaker 1: surrogate for Kamala Harris, although those two remain frontemies based

226
00:13:24,280 --> 00:13:26,280
Speaker 1: on what they've written about each other in their books.

227
00:13:26,920 --> 00:13:31,000
Speaker 1: But Gavin Newsom certainly is trying to position himself in

228
00:13:31,120 --> 00:13:34,720
Speaker 1: that lane as the favorite, as the one that the

229
00:13:34,760 --> 00:13:39,680
Speaker 1: Democratic Party wants and wants everyone to get behind. Well,

230
00:13:39,880 --> 00:13:44,000
Speaker 1: now that it looks like the DSA is beating the

231
00:13:44,080 --> 00:13:48,320
Speaker 1: Democratic Party at their own game, Gavin Newsom has already

232
00:13:48,320 --> 00:13:52,240
Speaker 1: started to reposition himself. He of course was opposed to

233
00:13:52,280 --> 00:13:56,040
Speaker 1: the billionaire confiscation tax that the SEIU wanted on the

234
00:13:56,080 --> 00:13:59,720
Speaker 1: California ballot. He was trying to negotiate a deal with

235
00:13:59,760 --> 00:14:03,560
Speaker 1: them to take it off. Those negotiations went nowhere, we

236
00:14:03,679 --> 00:14:06,760
Speaker 1: are going to see that initiative on our November ballot

237
00:14:06,840 --> 00:14:10,880
Speaker 1: here in California, and they started attacking him publicly. The

238
00:14:11,000 --> 00:14:14,000
Speaker 1: SEIU did comparing him to Donald Trump, which in a

239
00:14:14,040 --> 00:14:17,360
Speaker 1: Democratic primary is not something you want if you're the candidate.

240
00:14:18,240 --> 00:14:23,080
Speaker 1: But today Gavin Newsom came out and on a dime said, well,

241
00:14:23,280 --> 00:14:27,560
Speaker 1: my opposition to this initiative was that it was just California.

242
00:14:28,040 --> 00:14:31,320
Speaker 1: What we really need is at tax on billionaires nationally,

243
00:14:31,760 --> 00:14:34,320
Speaker 1: and that's what I'm going to advocate for. We should

244
00:14:34,360 --> 00:14:37,040
Speaker 1: do this in all fifty states. And I think that

245
00:14:37,200 --> 00:14:40,200
Speaker 1: had the election gone a different way in New York

246
00:14:40,240 --> 00:14:43,880
Speaker 1: earlier this week, we wouldn't be seeing this from Galvin Newsom.

247
00:14:44,200 --> 00:14:47,520
Speaker 1: But Gavin's trying to read the tea leaves and he thinks, okay,

248
00:14:47,960 --> 00:14:51,800
Speaker 1: if the DSA hates billionaires and that's what's popular right now,

249
00:14:52,120 --> 00:14:52,880
Speaker 1: sign me up.

250
00:14:54,640 --> 00:14:58,280
Speaker 3: Look, I mean, what has Gavin Newsom stood for as

251
00:14:58,320 --> 00:15:02,440
Speaker 3: a politician since he's made was saying Francisco, I mean

252
00:15:03,560 --> 00:15:05,840
Speaker 3: certain people you think about and you think that that

253
00:15:05,840 --> 00:15:09,960
Speaker 3: person really kind of had like a framework, a political guide.

254
00:15:10,560 --> 00:15:12,520
Speaker 3: He has nothing except he wants to win elections and

255
00:15:12,560 --> 00:15:15,040
Speaker 3: have power, and he wants to reward his friends and

256
00:15:15,040 --> 00:15:20,800
Speaker 3: punish his enemies. And it's are you shocked by that?

257
00:15:22,320 --> 00:15:26,800
Speaker 3: No one should be what he's terrified of. And brightly

258
00:15:26,920 --> 00:15:30,880
Speaker 3: so is that if this initiative passes in California, you've

259
00:15:30,920 --> 00:15:34,840
Speaker 3: already seen the flight of the concords, the flight of

260
00:15:34,840 --> 00:15:38,080
Speaker 3: the millionaires or billionaires rather as they've headed out of town.

261
00:15:39,080 --> 00:15:43,360
Speaker 3: And people who aren't billionaires should be deeply, deeply afraid

262
00:15:43,360 --> 00:15:46,640
Speaker 3: of this because buried in this bill was a provision

263
00:15:46,680 --> 00:15:51,960
Speaker 3: that says that the legislature can its discretion change the

264
00:15:52,080 --> 00:15:57,560
Speaker 3: threshold for the tax and change the timing and scheduling

265
00:15:57,600 --> 00:16:01,760
Speaker 3: of enforcement for the tax, which means that if the

266
00:16:01,800 --> 00:16:05,560
Speaker 3: billionaire tax doesn't generate enough money, and nowhere in the

267
00:16:05,600 --> 00:16:08,120
Speaker 3: world has it worked and generated enough money to be

268
00:16:08,200 --> 00:16:12,040
Speaker 3: kept in place, they lowered the threshold, and now suddenly,

269
00:16:13,040 --> 00:16:15,840
Speaker 3: are you worth one hundred million? Are you worth ten million?

270
00:16:16,680 --> 00:16:19,440
Speaker 3: Are you a homeowner in California, which with an average

271
00:16:19,440 --> 00:16:22,880
Speaker 3: house price of right around a million bucks? Suddenly you

272
00:16:22,920 --> 00:16:25,400
Speaker 3: know we're looking at you because you're one of the

273
00:16:25,400 --> 00:16:28,480
Speaker 3: top twenty percent of the people in California and you

274
00:16:28,480 --> 00:16:32,560
Speaker 3: should clearly pay your share. So it's it's insane, and

275
00:16:32,600 --> 00:16:36,840
Speaker 3: it's it's terrible, and it's going to be it's gonna

276
00:16:36,840 --> 00:16:39,120
Speaker 3: be an interesting ride to watch what happens.

277
00:16:39,600 --> 00:16:42,480
Speaker 1: Do you think any of the DSA voters, the people

278
00:16:42,480 --> 00:16:45,560
Speaker 1: who came out locally and voted for Nitthia Rahman, the

279
00:16:45,600 --> 00:16:48,160
Speaker 1: people who voted for these candidates in New York City

280
00:16:48,640 --> 00:16:51,800
Speaker 1: look at Gavin Newsom and see someone authentic.

281
00:16:53,320 --> 00:16:55,000
Speaker 3: No, I don't think, But I don't think they'll see

282
00:16:55,080 --> 00:16:57,840
Speaker 3: they necessarily look at their own people and see someone authentic.

283
00:16:59,240 --> 00:17:03,160
Speaker 3: Chevalier woman in New York who you know who won

284
00:17:03,200 --> 00:17:07,760
Speaker 3: the race. If you watch her, she feels like she's

285
00:17:07,760 --> 00:17:10,440
Speaker 3: speaking from a playbook every time she opens her mouth,

286
00:17:11,359 --> 00:17:13,960
Speaker 3: Like I didn't get a deep sense of like her

287
00:17:14,000 --> 00:17:17,560
Speaker 3: as a person, and that you can be empathetic with her,

288
00:17:17,640 --> 00:17:19,840
Speaker 3: that you can understand or care about it, and that

289
00:17:19,880 --> 00:17:21,840
Speaker 3: doesn't mean she's not. I'm sure she has a private

290
00:17:21,880 --> 00:17:24,080
Speaker 3: life and she's a genuine person. She has a cat

291
00:17:24,200 --> 00:17:30,800
Speaker 3: or whatever, but her persona isn't one of relatability, and

292
00:17:31,000 --> 00:17:34,800
Speaker 3: relatability kind of doesn't matter when you're revolutionary. What matters

293
00:17:34,880 --> 00:17:36,879
Speaker 3: his power and the intention is to get it and

294
00:17:36,960 --> 00:17:38,400
Speaker 3: keep it by any means necessary.

295
00:17:41,119 --> 00:17:44,320

Speaker 3: You will as well. Take care.

299
00:17:54,119 --> 00:18:12,879
Speaker 1: It's the John Phillips Show. Five two two two is

300
00:18:12,960 --> 00:18:13,840
Speaker 1: telephone number?

301
00:18:14,240 --> 00:18:14,320

Speaker 1: Eight hundred two two two five two two two? That

303
00:18:17,320 --> 00:18:17,520
Speaker 1: was me?

304
00:18:17,680 --> 00:18:21,600
Speaker 2: I forgot to patch you up. I got a lot

305
00:18:21,640 --> 00:18:25,480
Speaker 2: of things going on at the same time. So did

306
00:18:25,480 --> 00:18:28,679
Speaker 2: anyone hear me for the first two seconds? No, they

307
00:18:28,760 --> 00:18:30,520
Speaker 2: heard you once you were giving out the phone number.

308
00:18:30,560 --> 00:18:34,160
Speaker 2: Actually YouTube heard you, but the radio station didn't hear

309
00:18:34,200 --> 00:18:35,640
Speaker 2: you because I didn't have you pot it up.

310
00:18:36,040 --> 00:18:39,199
Speaker 1: Well, they heard the important part. If you'd like to

Speaker 5: It's happened yet again.

378
00:22:21,280 --> 00:22:27,040
Speaker 1: Nice see Time for the California Crime Blodder, and this

379

380
00:22:30,119 --> 00:22:30,840
Speaker 1: not for.

381
00:22:30,680 --> 00:22:35,400
Speaker 2: A good reason, because a woman was beaten and robbed

382
00:22:35,560 --> 00:22:40,240
Speaker 2: in Long Beach after she attended a World Cup watch party.

383
00:22:41,240 --> 00:22:44,399
Speaker 2: For more on this we go to our Freddie, our buddy,

384
00:22:44,480 --> 00:22:51,000
Speaker 2: Matthew Seedorf and Fox eleven in Los Angeles.

385
00:22:50,200 --> 00:22:52,880
Speaker 6: A woman beaten and robbed after leaving a World Cup

386
00:22:52,920 --> 00:22:56,080
Speaker 6: watch party in Long Beach. This happened last Thursday night,

387
00:22:56,160 --> 00:22:58,360
Speaker 6: following Mexico's victory over Korea.

388
00:22:58,560 --> 00:22:59,959
Speaker 1: Box eleven is Matthew Seedorf.

389
00:23:00,080 --> 00:23:02,920
Speaker 2: Hey, that's Glenn Walker who's now on Fox eleven. How

390
00:23:02,960 --> 00:23:04,920
Speaker 2: exciting is that it is?

391
00:23:05,560 --> 00:23:07,560
Speaker 5: Was live down with more about how she's doing.

392
00:23:07,720 --> 00:23:09,560
Speaker 2: He used to show up at a lot of our gambling

393
00:23:09,600 --> 00:23:11,840
Speaker 2: tournaments at ninety seven point one when we do those

394
00:23:11,880 --> 00:23:15,159
Speaker 2: poker tournaments at the Commerce Casino. All this when he

395
00:23:15,240 --> 00:23:17,280
Speaker 2: was because he was on CBSLA back then and we

396
00:23:17,280 --> 00:23:20,119
Speaker 2: had a good relationship with them. All of those people

397
00:23:20,200 --> 00:23:21,560
Speaker 2: like to come out for those things.

398
00:23:22,040 --> 00:23:24,920
Speaker 1: It's fun now and the hut for the people who

399
00:23:24,960 --> 00:23:25,520
Speaker 1: attacked her.

400
00:23:25,640 --> 00:23:29,960
Speaker 5: Matthew, Yeah, this is a very sad situation. We're standing

401
00:23:30,040 --> 00:23:32,200
Speaker 5: very close to where this woman was walking. She was

402
00:23:32,240 --> 00:23:35,439
Speaker 5: wearing that Team Mexico jersey when someone beat her to

403
00:23:35,480 --> 00:23:40,600
Speaker 5: the pavement. A city filled with World Cup watch parties

404
00:23:40,640 --> 00:23:41,680
Speaker 5: in celebrations.

405
00:23:43,080 --> 00:23:46,000
Speaker 2: Now for every good story about the World Cup, like

406
00:23:46,040 --> 00:23:49,800
Speaker 2: that Australian guy, that's obsessed with Popeye's Chicken. There's stories

407
00:23:49,880 --> 00:23:52,439
Speaker 2: like this, and usually the stories like this happen in

408
00:23:52,480 --> 00:23:53,359
Speaker 2: Los Angeles.

409
00:23:54,040 --> 00:23:56,920
Speaker 1: Imagine if you were walking down the street right after

410
00:23:56,960 --> 00:23:58,920
Speaker 1: this happened and you saw a woman who just got

411
00:23:58,920 --> 00:24:02,639
Speaker 1: beat up for no reason, and you said, I just

412
00:24:02,720 --> 00:24:05,640
Speaker 1: came out of one of those World Cup watch parties too.

413
00:24:06,480 --> 00:24:08,280
Speaker 1: But the only thing I have to help you with

414
00:24:08,400 --> 00:24:10,720
Speaker 1: is Norcan, and I don't think that'll help.

415
00:24:12,160 --> 00:24:13,600
Speaker 5: See you have a brutal attack.

416
00:24:13,840 --> 00:24:19,360
Speaker 4: I was not just sa mug that was viciously attacked.

417
00:24:18,960 --> 00:24:22,760
Speaker 5: Last Thursday night. Jennifer Silva says she was ambushed.

418
00:24:22,200 --> 00:24:25,880
Speaker 4: And I don't know why I was targeted that night.

419
00:24:26,080 --> 00:24:28,120
Speaker 4: I did have a jersey on.

420
00:24:28,480 --> 00:24:29,600
Speaker 5: Walking back to her car.

421
00:24:29,720 --> 00:24:31,520
Speaker 2: I mean, if they're robbing you, I don't know if

422
00:24:31,520 --> 00:24:34,439
Speaker 2: you were targeted for any reason, then they thought that

423
00:24:34,520 --> 00:24:35,639
Speaker 2: you might have some money.

424
00:24:36,880 --> 00:24:38,560
Speaker 1: I think you're probably right.

425
00:24:38,720 --> 00:24:41,880
Speaker 5: From Hooters after watching Mexico beat Korea.

426
00:24:42,920 --> 00:24:46,800
Speaker 2: Okay, I'm not here to judge anybody, and this is

427
00:24:46,960 --> 00:24:49,879
Speaker 2: not the most important part of this story, but let

428
00:24:49,960 --> 00:24:51,920
Speaker 2: me just rewind the tape for five seconds.

429
00:24:52,400 --> 00:24:53,080
Speaker 1: Where did she.

430
00:24:53,200 --> 00:24:56,439
Speaker 2: Do the watch party for Mexico's big match in the

431
00:24:56,440 --> 00:24:57,080
Speaker 2: World Cup?

432
00:24:57,400 --> 00:25:02,639
Speaker 4: Why I was targeted that I did have a jersey.

433
00:25:02,320 --> 00:25:04,720
Speaker 5: On walking back to her car from Hooters.

434
00:25:06,200 --> 00:25:11,240
Speaker 2: Hooters, who goes to watch the World Cup at Hooters,

435
00:25:11,640 --> 00:25:14,560
Speaker 2: specifically a female? I mean, I guess she could be,

436
00:25:15,040 --> 00:25:18,840
Speaker 2: you know, into women, but what maybe she just likes

437
00:25:18,880 --> 00:25:23,720
Speaker 2: the chicken wings. To quote the great Chris Rock, nobody

438
00:25:23,760 --> 00:25:29,080
Speaker 2: goes to Hooters for wings. That being said, Hooters, if

439
00:25:29,080 --> 00:25:31,280
Speaker 2: you'd like to do a live broadcast, contact our sales

440
00:25:31,320 --> 00:25:33,280
Speaker 2: team and I'll say nothing but nice things about you.

441
00:25:35,640 --> 00:25:37,320
Speaker 5: After watching Mexico be I.

442
00:25:37,320 --> 00:25:39,919
Speaker 2: Actually did a live event once with Frosty, Hudie and

443
00:25:39,960 --> 00:25:43,840
Speaker 2: Frank at a Hooters, and those events usually someone ends

444
00:25:43,920 --> 00:25:45,200
Speaker 2: up blackout drunk.

445
00:25:46,880 --> 00:25:47,240
Speaker 5: Korea.

446
00:25:47,760 --> 00:25:56,040
Speaker 4: I just remember being approached, tugging on my bag and

447
00:25:56,040 --> 00:26:01,080
Speaker 4: then being on the floor and seeing my on the ground.

448
00:26:01,520 --> 00:26:05,159
Speaker 1: They literally knocked her teeth out. Maybe they were looking

449
00:26:05,200 --> 00:26:06,680
Speaker 1: for leftover chicken wings.

450
00:26:07,240 --> 00:26:10,640
Speaker 5: These disturbing images show some of her gruesome injuries.

451
00:26:10,800 --> 00:26:14,560
Speaker 2: Okay, that's gross, all right, Maybe this whole putting these

452
00:26:14,600 --> 00:26:16,600
Speaker 2: stories on video is a bad idea.

453
00:26:16,760 --> 00:26:20,560
Speaker 1: Don't freeze the video right there there, I moved it.

454
00:26:21,520 --> 00:26:25,040
Speaker 2: Usually they don't show things that graphic on the local news,

455
00:26:25,560 --> 00:26:27,719
Speaker 2: but the image of her losing her too. I mean,

456
00:26:27,760 --> 00:26:30,760
Speaker 2: it's very powerful image. I'm so sorry that this happened

457
00:26:30,800 --> 00:26:32,639
Speaker 2: to her, but that's rough.

458
00:26:33,560 --> 00:26:36,800
Speaker 1: Listen, she's the victim, and I have nothing but sympathy

459
00:26:36,840 --> 00:26:38,879
Speaker 1: for her. But lady, that's repulsive.

460
00:26:40,119 --> 00:26:46,280
Speaker 4: Shirt. My wrist is dislocated, I had scrapes on my elbows,

461
00:26:46,520 --> 00:26:47,720
Speaker 4: my knees were bruised.

462
00:26:47,760 --> 00:26:50,639
Speaker 5: But she says, what hurts even more is what happened next.

463
00:26:50,960 --> 00:26:54,320
Speaker 5: People walked by, saw her bleeding and kept going. No

464
00:26:54,400 --> 00:26:57,040
Speaker 5: one stopped, no one called nine to one one.

465
00:26:57,840 --> 00:27:02,520
Speaker 1: That's the most la thing I've ever heard, the least

466
00:27:02,560 --> 00:27:04,080
Speaker 1: surprising part of the story.

467
00:27:04,480 --> 00:27:07,640
Speaker 4: It just hurts that this could happened around people and

468
00:27:07,680 --> 00:27:10,200
Speaker 4: no one could say. No one helped me, no no one.

469
00:27:11,080 --> 00:27:13,120
Speaker 4: No one called the cops, no one called.

470
00:27:13,240 --> 00:27:17,400
Speaker 2: I was like, I'm sure someone's on that, someone will

471
00:27:17,400 --> 00:27:21,400
Speaker 2: handle it. I don't want to get involved. She's bleeding everywhere.

472
00:27:21,440 --> 00:27:22,760
Speaker 2: I've got white shoes.

473
00:27:22,440 --> 00:27:24,840
Speaker 1: On teeth all over the place.

474
00:27:25,320 --> 00:27:28,280
Speaker 4: This poor girl, what an ambulance for me.

475
00:27:29,320 --> 00:27:33,679
Speaker 7: I wandered around for who knows how long with my

476
00:27:33,760 --> 00:27:41,600
Speaker 7: mouth full of blood, non stop bleeding, no teeth, and eventually, and.

477
00:27:42,119 --> 00:27:45,119
Speaker 2: This is a World Cup watch party area, there's a

478
00:27:45,160 --> 00:27:48,840
Speaker 2: whole bunch of people in downtown Long Beach. Long Beach,

479
00:27:48,880 --> 00:27:52,439
Speaker 2: PD is nowhere walking around seeing what's going on.

480
00:27:53,040 --> 00:27:58,520
Speaker 1: Okay, here's my theory. If you see someone who's an

481
00:27:58,600 --> 00:28:04,359
Speaker 1: obvious mess involved in a health crisis, I think most

482
00:28:04,359 --> 00:28:09,080
Speaker 1: people assume that she was probably homeless, and you just

483
00:28:09,160 --> 00:28:12,879
Speaker 1: learn to block them out. It's just white noise. You

484
00:28:12,920 --> 00:28:15,720
Speaker 1: don't see it. When they ask you a question, you

485
00:28:15,720 --> 00:28:19,200
Speaker 1: don't acknowledge it. You just keep moving. I think that's

486
00:28:19,200 --> 00:28:20,120
Speaker 1: what happened to her.

487
00:28:20,760 --> 00:28:25,400
Speaker 2: We are, in a very sad but very specific way,

488
00:28:26,160 --> 00:28:29,920
Speaker 2: desensitized to human suffering in Los Angeles.

489
00:28:30,359 --> 00:28:33,160
Speaker 1: It's weird, and I've mentioned this on the air before.

490
00:28:33,640 --> 00:28:36,920
Speaker 1: When I went on vacation to Thailand. You don't see

491
00:28:36,920 --> 00:28:40,320
Speaker 1: homeless people all over Thailand, but what you do see,

492
00:28:40,400 --> 00:28:43,480
Speaker 1: or at least when I went, you see stray disease

493
00:28:43,640 --> 00:28:46,360
Speaker 1: dogs everywhere you go. Now, I am not what you

494
00:28:46,360 --> 00:28:51,280
Speaker 1: would call an animal person, but furthest thing from seeing

495
00:28:51,400 --> 00:28:55,440
Speaker 1: animal suffering is something that tugs at your heart strings

496
00:28:55,480 --> 00:28:58,680
Speaker 1: and you notice it right away. But what's funny is

497
00:28:58,840 --> 00:29:02,360
Speaker 1: living here in California, where there are homeless encampments everywhere,

498
00:29:02,800 --> 00:29:05,520
Speaker 1: and you see human suffering on the side of the road.

499
00:29:06,120 --> 00:29:09,600
Speaker 1: I don't even notice it anymore, but with the animals,

500
00:29:09,800 --> 00:29:14,400
Speaker 1: I noticed it immediately, and I wonder if that's what

501
00:29:14,520 --> 00:29:16,760
Speaker 1: happened to her. People just tuned it out.

502
00:29:17,360 --> 00:29:19,800
Speaker 2: We just have our blinders on because we see so

503
00:29:19,960 --> 00:29:23,480
Speaker 2: much of this stuff. It's not surprising anymore. It's awful.

504
00:29:23,600 --> 00:29:24,680
Speaker 2: But I get.

505
00:29:24,520 --> 00:29:28,600
Speaker 4: It to the hospital and that's when they that's when

506
00:29:28,600 --> 00:29:32,040
Speaker 4: I knew like my injuries were they severe.

507
00:29:32,800 --> 00:29:35,760
Speaker 1: Hopefully they didn't steal her insurance card.

508
00:29:37,000 --> 00:29:38,320
Speaker 4: They find whoever did it.

509
00:29:38,680 --> 00:29:39,800
Speaker 7: I feel bad for the lady.

510
00:29:40,000 --> 00:29:42,800
Speaker 5: The thief escaped with her purse, credit cards, her ID

511
00:29:43,240 --> 00:29:45,000
Speaker 5: and keys to her car and home.

512
00:29:45,320 --> 00:29:48,400
Speaker 4: This person has my keys to my home. This person

513
00:29:48,440 --> 00:29:51,080
Speaker 4: could just come to my house and take my car.

514
00:29:51,360 --> 00:29:51,520
Speaker 5: Now.

515
00:29:51,600 --> 00:29:54,320
Speaker 1: The mother, Yeah, I'd be changing those locks real quick.

516
00:29:54,760 --> 00:29:55,560
Speaker 1: I think i'd move.

517
00:29:56,280 --> 00:29:59,000
Speaker 5: There are two hoping police find the man who attacked

518
00:29:59,040 --> 00:30:01,640
Speaker 5: her and left her bleeding on the pavements. What would

519
00:30:01,640 --> 00:30:02,400
Speaker 5: you want to tell him?

520
00:30:02,640 --> 00:30:05,480
Speaker 4: Why me, Mike, you didn't you?

521
00:30:07,160 --> 00:30:12,560
Speaker 1: She's a local. Nancy Kerrigan, I don't get anything.

522
00:30:12,600 --> 00:30:15,800
Speaker 4: I don't understand why why I got this.

523
00:30:17,760 --> 00:30:19,640
Speaker 5: Now, if you want to help with her medical bills,

524
00:30:19,680 --> 00:30:22,040
Speaker 5: we'll have a link up at FOXLA dot com Long

525
00:30:22,080 --> 00:30:23,160
Speaker 5: Beach police tell us.

526
00:30:23,120 --> 00:30:26,360
Speaker 1: Some medical bills. How about dental bills? That's where all

527
00:30:26,360 --> 00:30:31,320
Speaker 1: the money's gonna go. I think that's included that they're investigating.

528
00:30:31,480 --> 00:30:33,840
Speaker 5: Well a live in Long Beach Matthew sied Or Fox

529
00:30:33,960 --> 00:30:34,720
Speaker 5: Loven News.

530
00:30:35,280 --> 00:30:38,560
Speaker 6: I feel so horrible for this woman. It's just terrible.

531
00:30:39,800 --> 00:30:42,160
Speaker 6: I know that she wasn't able to offer up many

532
00:30:42,240 --> 00:30:45,280
Speaker 6: details as to why she was singled out. Did he

533
00:30:45,440 --> 00:30:46,560
Speaker 6: say anything to her?

534
00:30:48,720 --> 00:30:51,200
Speaker 5: Yeah, so I guess he said one thing. And she

535
00:30:51,400 --> 00:30:53,440
Speaker 5: was walking, and I guess she had her phone out.

536
00:30:53,520 --> 00:30:59,520
Speaker 1: Wait, let me guess what's the frequency, Kenneth. That's a

537
00:30:59,560 --> 00:31:01,080
Speaker 1: deep reference, Johnny.

538
00:31:02,600 --> 00:31:06,080
Speaker 5: And he said something along the lines of that's mine.

539
00:31:06,200 --> 00:31:06,720
Speaker 5: I want that.

540
00:31:08,080 --> 00:31:12,680
Speaker 2: So she was probably scrolling through the gram. She had

541
00:31:12,720 --> 00:31:15,560
Speaker 2: her phone out, maybe it had a really fancy case,

542
00:31:15,600 --> 00:31:19,800
Speaker 2: what have you, and someone snatched the phone and then

543
00:31:20,080 --> 00:31:21,520
Speaker 2: decided to beat her down.

544
00:31:22,120 --> 00:31:24,080
Speaker 1: If you're going to walk the streets with all of

545
00:31:24,120 --> 00:31:28,120
Speaker 1: these zombies that live around us, don't have the headphones in,

546
00:31:28,640 --> 00:31:33,160
Speaker 1: don't play on your cell phone, be aware of your surroundings. Wow,

547
00:31:33,840 --> 00:31:38,280
Speaker 1: cold callous. Yeah. See literation right there from Glenn Walker.

548
00:31:38,880 --> 00:31:42,280
Speaker 6: Love it and not very flattering that nobody came to

549
00:31:42,360 --> 00:31:44,920
Speaker 6: rescue her or to try to help her in any way.

550
00:31:45,280 --> 00:31:47,160
Speaker 6: I feel like we're a better community than that.

551
00:31:48,000 --> 00:31:52,120
Speaker 2: Well, Laura, Laura, you've reported here for a very long time.

552
00:31:52,640 --> 00:31:56,520
Speaker 2: We are not If this happened in Seal Beach would

553
00:31:56,560 --> 00:31:59,680
Speaker 2: be a completely different story. Also, would not happen in

554
00:31:59,720 --> 00:32:03,840
Speaker 2: Seal Beach. In Huntington Beach, that guy would be hogtide.

555
00:32:04,880 --> 00:32:07,760
Speaker 1: All right, Matthew, thank you. So there you go.

556
00:32:08,360 --> 00:32:12,000
Speaker 2: The ohh, I'm turning off the video. You don't have

557
00:32:12,040 --> 00:32:14,480
Speaker 2: to see her sad face anymore. It does not even oh,

558
00:32:15,000 --> 00:32:18,440
Speaker 2: I see they had a little tiny screenshot of the teeth.

559
00:32:18,880 --> 00:32:21,000
Speaker 1: I don't care about the sad face. I don't want

560
00:32:21,000 --> 00:32:22,480
Speaker 1: to look at the grill. See.

561
00:32:22,520 --> 00:32:26,200
Speaker 2: Now here's a complicated issue that I have when I'm

562
00:32:26,280 --> 00:32:29,640
Speaker 2: screening these videos. I'm listening to them in the morning,

563
00:32:29,720 --> 00:32:32,280
Speaker 2: and I try to figure out what's interesting for us.

564
00:32:32,320 --> 00:32:35,160
Speaker 2: That's what goes on the rundown, That's what goes on

565
00:32:35,240 --> 00:32:39,160
Speaker 2: my blog at Randy Wangradio dot substack dot com. I

566
00:32:39,160 --> 00:32:42,160
Speaker 2: guess for these specific stories for the crime Blotters, I'm

567
00:32:42,200 --> 00:32:45,320
Speaker 2: also gonna have to quickly screen through them to make

568
00:32:45,360 --> 00:32:47,480
Speaker 2: sure that we're not grossing people out.

569
00:32:47,560 --> 00:32:53,760
Speaker 1: During lunch. Thank you, you already ate right first and foremost.

Speaker 2: I will when I hear of a story of a

573
00:33:04,400 --> 00:33:08,239
Speaker 2: gruesome injury, I will do a quick scan of the

574
00:33:08,400 --> 00:33:12,800
Speaker 2: video before I bring it to the show on YouTube

Speaker 1: Now, that smile with all those teeth knocked out, that's

577
00:33:19,680 --> 00:33:23,160
Speaker 1: one person who can wear one of Barbara Ferrer's masks.

578
00:33:23,840 --> 00:33:39,040
Speaker 1: Poor girl. Yeah, it's the John Phillips Show. It's the

Speaker 5: Nice see, time for the California crime blodder.

598
00:34:46,239 --> 00:34:50,799
Speaker 1: Now, this edition of the Blotter takes us to Irvine, California,

599
00:34:51,000 --> 00:34:56,120
Speaker 1: and shockingly, it's not a domestic violence incident going on

600
00:34:56,120 --> 00:34:59,600
Speaker 1: on the campus of UCI. Did we have one of

601
00:34:59,600 --> 00:35:05,839
Speaker 1: those re recently? Well, let me put it this way,

602
00:35:06,200 --> 00:35:08,840
Speaker 1: the UCI subsidized faculty housing.

603
00:35:09,400 --> 00:35:12,399
Speaker 2: Oh, I see, because there was a story of someone

604
00:35:12,480 --> 00:35:15,759
Speaker 2: they got beat up at UCI. But you're referring to

605
00:35:16,960 --> 00:35:20,120
Speaker 2: I get it dinner? Any chance?

606
00:35:20,160 --> 00:35:20,360
Speaker 1: You know?

607
00:35:20,640 --> 00:35:23,680
Speaker 2: I should have thought about this if I'm adding to

608
00:35:23,719 --> 00:35:26,759
Speaker 2: the Blotter a story about Irvine pde cracking down on

609
00:35:26,840 --> 00:35:30,160
Speaker 2: porch pirates, that John was going to find some way

610
00:35:30,680 --> 00:35:34,200
Speaker 2: to make it about kat Porter, I.

611
00:35:34,200 --> 00:35:38,400
Speaker 1: Should have known. Hey, you should be proud of me.

612
00:35:38,480 --> 00:35:40,359
Speaker 1: I didn't make it about the Tiajuana River.

613
00:35:43,880 --> 00:35:44,920
Speaker 4: You can right.

614
00:35:45,880 --> 00:35:47,400
Speaker 2: There are a lot of things that I put on

615
00:35:47,440 --> 00:35:49,440
Speaker 2: the rundown, and I'm like, you know what, John's never

616
00:35:49,480 --> 00:35:50,120
Speaker 2: going to use that.

617
00:35:50,200 --> 00:35:52,279
Speaker 1: I'll just talk about it on my five o'clock.

618
00:35:51,960 --> 00:35:55,000
Speaker 2: Show, and then if there's ever a story about the

619
00:35:55,040 --> 00:35:58,600
Speaker 2: Tijuana River, it doesn't matter how small of an update.

620
00:35:59,080 --> 00:36:04,919
Speaker 2: All we got to do that, all right. For more

621
00:36:05,080 --> 00:36:11,840
Speaker 2: on what IRVINEPD is doing to crack down on people

622
00:36:11,920 --> 00:36:15,480
Speaker 2: stealing packages in Irvine, which is the number one crime

Speaker 2: in Irvine.

624
00:36:16,600 --> 00:36:19,880
Speaker 1: Here is CBS in Los Angeles, even during daylight.

625
00:36:20,160 --> 00:36:23,600
Speaker 8: This man has no reservation about walking off with a package,

626
00:36:23,680 --> 00:36:25,680
Speaker 8: as a ring camera recorded him.

627
00:36:26,120 --> 00:36:27,480
Speaker 1: The package owner.

628
00:36:27,360 --> 00:36:34,239
Speaker 2: He did that so nonchalantly, not even in a rush.

629
00:36:33,719 --> 00:36:36,120
Speaker 8: Asked us not to share her identity.

630
00:36:35,680 --> 00:36:38,400
Speaker 1: Fresh delivery, and immediately was stolen.

631
00:36:38,680 --> 00:36:42,160
Speaker 8: In recent years, residential package theft has been on the

632
00:36:42,280 --> 00:36:45,920
Speaker 8: rise and is not just limited to the holiday shopping season.

633
00:36:46,080 --> 00:36:48,440
Speaker 8: It's a massive problem with Jeane Petrino is the lead

634
00:36:48,520 --> 00:36:52,640
Speaker 8: security advisor at security dot Org. He says porch pards

635
00:36:52,680 --> 00:36:56,920
Speaker 8: have become active during America's observance of online bargain hunting

636
00:36:58,360 --> 00:37:00,120
Speaker 8: on Amazon dot com.

637
00:37:00,800 --> 00:37:04,680
Speaker 2: Yes, so this week was Prime Day, which is now

638
00:37:04,680 --> 00:37:07,479
Speaker 2: a three day thing, and apparently when a whole bunch

639
00:37:07,520 --> 00:37:09,960
Speaker 2: of people buy a whole bunch of crap they don't

640
00:37:10,040 --> 00:37:13,120
Speaker 2: need on Amazon. That's when the porch pirates come and

641
00:37:13,120 --> 00:37:14,200
Speaker 2: sweep your neighborhood.

642
00:37:14,880 --> 00:37:17,239
Speaker 1: Okay, but you have no clue what you're stealing. When

643
00:37:17,239 --> 00:37:19,920
Speaker 1: you steal a box, it's just a mystery as to

644
00:37:19,960 --> 00:37:21,520
Speaker 1: what's in there. It could be cat food.

645
00:37:21,960 --> 00:37:25,080
Speaker 2: It's like those gotcha games they have in Japan. You

646
00:37:25,200 --> 00:37:28,360
Speaker 2: have no idea what's actually coming out of the vending machine.

647
00:37:28,680 --> 00:37:31,239
Speaker 1: See about a forty percent spike in thefts the week

648
00:37:31,280 --> 00:37:32,200
Speaker 1: following Prime Day.

649
00:37:32,280 --> 00:37:36,040
Speaker 8: Patrino says one in four Americans has experienced a package

650
00:37:36,080 --> 00:37:40,120
Speaker 8: theft and estimated thirty seven million packages are expected to

651
00:37:40,120 --> 00:37:44,120
Speaker 8: be stolen this year, with a total estimated value of

652
00:37:44,200 --> 00:37:47,160
Speaker 8: more than eight point two billion dollars.

653
00:37:47,400 --> 00:37:51,360
Speaker 2: And if you're wondering how the online retailers make it work,

654
00:37:51,640 --> 00:37:53,200
Speaker 2: they build that into the cost.

655
00:37:53,880 --> 00:37:57,560
Speaker 1: Okay, in just in case anyone in my neighborhood is

656
00:37:57,760 --> 00:38:00,840
Speaker 1: listening to us today and you're thinking about stealing a

657
00:38:00,920 --> 00:38:04,560
Speaker 1: package from my porch. All you're going to get are

658
00:38:04,719 --> 00:38:08,200
Speaker 1: socks or I love Lucy memorabilia, so have at it.

659
00:38:08,880 --> 00:38:14,440
Speaker 8: What's the average value of a typical stolen package nationwide?

660
00:38:14,440 --> 00:38:16,840
Speaker 8: We're finingan it's around two hundred and twenty two dollars.

661
00:38:16,960 --> 00:38:21,680
Speaker 8: CBS California Investigates obtained LAPD data on petty theft from

662
00:38:21,719 --> 00:38:25,680
Speaker 8: residential porches between August twenty twenty four and October twenty

663
00:38:25,719 --> 00:38:29,600
Speaker 8: twenty five. The most fifty four in November twenty twenty four,

664
00:38:30,080 --> 00:38:33,360
Speaker 8: sixty three the following month, not to be ignored, forty

665
00:38:33,360 --> 00:38:36,400
Speaker 8: four in February and March of last year. In the

666
00:38:36,440 --> 00:38:40,360
Speaker 8: same fourteen month period, Orange County recorded nineteen residential petty

667
00:38:40,440 --> 00:38:43,799
Speaker 8: theft in December twenty twenty four ten in July of

668
00:38:43,880 --> 00:38:44,479
Speaker 8: last year.

669
00:38:44,640 --> 00:38:47,720
Speaker 2: Petrino says, by the way, if you just think about

670
00:38:47,800 --> 00:38:51,399
Speaker 2: the numbers there, the city of La is around four

671
00:38:51,400 --> 00:38:55,680
Speaker 2: million people. That's what's governed by the LAPD. The entire

672
00:38:56,080 --> 00:39:00,640
Speaker 2: Orange County is about three million people, so it's kind

673
00:39:00,640 --> 00:39:04,280
Speaker 2: of similar numbers. But Orange County has less than half

674
00:39:04,400 --> 00:39:06,920
Speaker 2: of the amount of porch pirates that La does.

675
00:39:07,800 --> 00:39:09,040
Speaker 1: That should tell you something.

676
00:39:09,520 --> 00:39:11,799
Speaker 8: These cases are often underreported.

677
00:39:11,840 --> 00:39:14,440
Speaker 2: We're finding about only twenty five percent or so of

678
00:39:14,480 --> 00:39:16,320
Speaker 2: these crimes are reported to law enforcement.

679
00:39:16,480 --> 00:39:20,120
Speaker 8: Irvine Police Chief Michael Kent says property crime is the

680
00:39:20,280 --> 00:39:22,800
Speaker 8: number one crime committed in his city.

681
00:39:23,400 --> 00:39:26,960
Speaker 1: Must be nice Irvine well and if you think about it,

682
00:39:27,400 --> 00:39:31,280
Speaker 1: if I order something from Amazon and it gets stolen,

683
00:39:32,440 --> 00:39:34,719
Speaker 1: I just go to Amazon and go I didn't get it,

684
00:39:35,160 --> 00:39:38,880
Speaker 1: and then Amazon just mails you a new one YEP decenumber.

685
00:39:38,920 --> 00:39:41,680
Speaker 8: Of twenty twenty four, there were eighty four cases of

686
00:39:41,840 --> 00:39:45,640
Speaker 8: package theft, and in July of last year, forty four.

687
00:39:45,880 --> 00:39:46,640
Speaker 1: So now it's up.

688
00:39:46,960 --> 00:39:49,680
Speaker 5: I'm at three hundred feet and I can move around.

689
00:39:49,560 --> 00:39:50,200
Speaker 1: To fight crime.

690
00:39:50,280 --> 00:39:54,120
Speaker 8: Irvin PD has gone high tech, utilizing aerio drones to

691
00:39:54,200 --> 00:39:55,640
Speaker 8: chase down theft suspects.

692
00:39:55,680 --> 00:39:58,560
Speaker 2: From this whole story is a commercial for Irvine. The

693

Speaker 2: IRVINEPD has so long to do. They're using drones to

694
00:40:01,800 --> 00:40:03,320
Speaker 2: track down porch pirates.

695
00:40:03,800 --> 00:40:07,080
Speaker 1: Meanwhile, in Oakland, if a stolen Kia comes driving through

696
00:40:07,120 --> 00:40:09,480
Speaker 1: your front wall, they tell you to fill out a

697
00:40:09,520 --> 00:40:12,719
Speaker 1: form online. What else do we go? Call Superman?

698
00:40:12,880 --> 00:40:14,960
Speaker 8: Potential areas and shopping malls.

699
00:40:15,000 --> 00:40:16,840
