<v Speaker 1>today that he's endorsing Javier Bakeria.

0:00:22.640 --> 0:00:24.520
<v Speaker 3>The Secretary of Health and Education is over.

0:00:24.640 --> 0:00:29.280
<v Speaker 4>I nominated Javier Bakaria.

0:00:29.160 --> 0:00:31.800
<v Speaker 2>And it looks like he's not the only ones because

0:00:31.880 --> 0:00:33.839
<v Speaker 2>the bach is getting a bump.

0:00:34.960 --> 0:00:38.480
<v Speaker 1>Let's see what Revis had to say in a video

0:00:38.560 --> 0:00:42.600
<v Speaker 1>he shot with Bakaia. Who Bakia's new look is, Hey,

0:00:42.760 --> 0:00:45.120
<v Speaker 1>I ditched the glasses for contacts.

0:00:46.920 --> 0:00:48.560
<v Speaker 5>California is under threat.

0:00:48.840 --> 0:00:53.360
<v Speaker 1>Oh boy, the violence are starting every day.

0:00:53.600 --> 0:00:56.400
<v Speaker 5>The Trump administration is coming after our healthcare.

0:00:57.040 --> 0:01:02.080
<v Speaker 1>YEP. This is totally about local issues. And they never

0:01:02.120 --> 0:01:03.600
<v Speaker 1>miss an opportunity, do they?

0:01:04.160 --> 0:01:08.080
<v Speaker 5>Our families, our values. There's no time to learn on

0:01:08.120 --> 0:01:10.679
<v Speaker 5>the job. We need a governor who's going to be

0:01:10.720 --> 0:01:13.840
<v Speaker 5>ready to fight back on day one. That's why I'm

0:01:13.880 --> 0:01:16.760
<v Speaker 5>proud to endorse Javier Vassera for governor.

0:01:16.800 --> 0:01:19.440
<v Speaker 1>As a US Oh we had a swell into drums.

0:01:22.360 --> 0:01:25.759
<v Speaker 1>The people who produce these videos are the biggest hacks

0:01:25.760 --> 0:01:28.800
<v Speaker 1>in the industry, and they charged them of fortune to

0:01:28.840 --> 0:01:29.120
<v Speaker 1>do it.

0:01:29.720 --> 0:01:34.240
<v Speaker 5>As US Health Secretary, he expanded healthcare coverage. As California's

0:01:34.240 --> 0:01:37.320
<v Speaker 5>attorney general, he sued the Trump administration one hundred and

0:01:37.400 --> 0:01:38.280
<v Speaker 5>twenty two times.

0:01:38.600 --> 0:01:43.279
<v Speaker 1>Woo, it is all about Donald Trump. Yep.

0:01:43.680 --> 0:01:48.680
<v Speaker 5>He defended Obamacare, he defended our dreamers, he defended working people,

0:01:49.200 --> 0:01:49.760
<v Speaker 5>and he won.

0:01:49.840 --> 0:01:54.560
<v Speaker 1>Did he prosecute anybody? Yeah? How's crime doing in California?

0:01:55.240 --> 0:01:55.880
<v Speaker 1>And he won?

0:01:56.560 --> 0:02:01.760
<v Speaker 5>Thirty years of leadership, millions of California protected and defended.

0:02:02.680 --> 0:02:04.680
<v Speaker 1>We have a strong What did he accomplish in his

0:02:04.720 --> 0:02:05.920
<v Speaker 1>twenty years in Congress?

0:02:05.960 --> 0:02:06.120
<v Speaker 3>Oh?

0:02:06.160 --> 0:02:09.359
<v Speaker 1>Nobody knows. Why did Nancy Pelosi hate him?

0:02:09.880 --> 0:02:13.320
<v Speaker 5>We have a strong democratic field for governor, but right

0:02:13.360 --> 0:02:14.160
<v Speaker 5>now we.

0:02:14.040 --> 0:02:19.960
<v Speaker 1>Need fact check define strong.

0:02:20.760 --> 0:02:25.120
<v Speaker 2>There are pieces in just about every national publication about

0:02:25.120 --> 0:02:26.840
<v Speaker 2>what a train wreck this field is.

0:02:27.400 --> 0:02:28.960
<v Speaker 1>I mean, I don't know how you can say this.

0:02:29.280 --> 0:02:31.440
<v Speaker 5>We have a strong democratic field when.

0:02:31.360 --> 0:02:33.079
<v Speaker 1>Up until a week and a half ago, the front

0:02:33.160 --> 0:02:34.639
<v Speaker 1>runner is an accused rapist.

0:02:38.240 --> 0:02:41.679
<v Speaker 5>We have a strong democratic field for governor, but right

0:02:41.720 --> 0:02:46.160
<v Speaker 5>now we need someone ready on day one Javier Bassera.

0:02:46.320 --> 0:02:48.960
<v Speaker 6>Is that leader, mister speaker, thank you.

0:02:49.040 --> 0:02:50.280
<v Speaker 1>Oh he's in the spot too.

0:02:52.960 --> 0:02:55.560
<v Speaker 2>Oh yes, well, if he's going to be given all

0:02:55.600 --> 0:02:57.880
<v Speaker 2>this love, he might as well be there to accept it.

0:02:58.040 --> 0:03:00.919
<v Speaker 1>But this is Besarah two point zero because he doesn't

0:03:00.919 --> 0:03:01.720
<v Speaker 1>have glasses on.

0:03:01.919 --> 0:03:05.440
<v Speaker 6>Mister speaker, thank you. Like so many Californians, you and

0:03:05.520 --> 0:03:06.919
<v Speaker 6>I come from immigrant families.

0:03:07.560 --> 0:03:11.720
<v Speaker 1>We have lived. Has there been one even iota of

0:03:12.120 --> 0:03:14.200
<v Speaker 1>California issues in this ad?

0:03:15.240 --> 0:03:17.600
<v Speaker 2>Go back to that original interview that he did with

0:03:17.680 --> 0:03:22.920
<v Speaker 2>Alex Michaelson where he was woefully unprepared to talk about

0:03:22.960 --> 0:03:25.000
<v Speaker 2>any California subjects.

0:03:25.560 --> 0:03:27.720
<v Speaker 1>This guy doesn't know the basics.

0:03:28.000 --> 0:03:29.239
<v Speaker 7>Scrub it.

0:03:29.240 --> 0:03:32.160
<v Speaker 1>It doesn't matter, though. It doesn't matter that he doesn't

0:03:32.200 --> 0:03:34.760
<v Speaker 1>know anything, or he doesn't really have a track record,

0:03:35.040 --> 0:03:38.120
<v Speaker 1>or that he you know, Nancy Pelozzi thinks he's a joke.

0:03:38.520 --> 0:03:42.280
<v Speaker 1>He'll play nice, and Katie Porter and Tom Steyer won't,

0:03:42.640 --> 0:03:46.040
<v Speaker 1>so they need somebody to play nice. That is true.

0:03:46.840 --> 0:03:49.760
<v Speaker 1>We have lived the California dream. It's not going to

0:03:49.800 --> 0:03:52.520
<v Speaker 1>be mayhe Mayheen won't play nice. He went against them

0:03:52.520 --> 0:03:56.120
<v Speaker 1>on thirty six. They don't like him, No, they don't.

0:03:56.360 --> 0:03:59.960
<v Speaker 6>We have lived the California dream, the same dream that's

0:04:00.160 --> 0:04:04.000
<v Speaker 6>under attack by Donald Trump and his cronies. There's not

0:04:04.080 --> 0:04:04.880
<v Speaker 6>a moment to lose.

0:04:05.000 --> 0:04:05.640
<v Speaker 1>As governor.

0:04:06.120 --> 0:04:08.480
<v Speaker 6>I will be ready on day one to bring down

0:04:08.520 --> 0:04:09.800
<v Speaker 6>costs and to defend.

0:04:10.040 --> 0:04:12.600
<v Speaker 1>By the way, if you're hearing that clipping, it's because

0:04:12.760 --> 0:04:16.080
<v Speaker 1>in the ad that they produced, but Sarah is speaking

0:04:16.240 --> 0:04:22.800
<v Speaker 1>so much louder than Revus it actually overblows the microphone.

0:04:23.080 --> 0:04:26.560
<v Speaker 6>And to defend everything we love about California.

0:04:26.640 --> 0:04:32.080
<v Speaker 1>So let's get to work there, you go. Revus endorses Besera,

0:04:32.240 --> 0:04:34.479
<v Speaker 1>and neither one of them want to talk about any

0:04:34.640 --> 0:04:37.919
<v Speaker 1>issues facing California. Scrub it.

0:04:40.240 --> 0:04:44.400
<v Speaker 2>Scrub it eight hundred two two two five two two

0:04:44.440 --> 0:04:47.880
<v Speaker 2>two is telephone number one eight hundred two two two

0:04:48.000 --> 0:04:50.760
<v Speaker 2>five two two two. Well, despite the fact that he

0:04:50.800 --> 0:04:53.320
<v Speaker 2>doesn't seem to know much about the state of California,

0:04:53.720 --> 0:04:57.800
<v Speaker 2>Javier Bakaria is seeing a boost in the polls.

0:04:58.080 --> 0:05:00.799
<v Speaker 1>First we saw that Paul that was commission by Inside

0:05:00.839 --> 0:05:04.640
<v Speaker 1>California Politics, that poll which actually qualified Bisera for the

0:05:04.680 --> 0:05:08.320
<v Speaker 1>debate tomorrow that's going to be on KTLA in southern

0:05:08.360 --> 0:05:11.560
<v Speaker 1>California and cron for in the Bay Area and Fox

0:05:11.640 --> 0:05:16.880
<v Speaker 1>forty in Sacramento. Now we have the third version of

0:05:16.920 --> 0:05:21.040
<v Speaker 1>the poll that was commissioned by the California Democratic Party

0:05:21.160 --> 0:05:26.440
<v Speaker 1>to kick all the other candidates out, and Bakaria's got

0:05:26.480 --> 0:05:30.120
<v Speaker 1>to bump in that one too. For more, here's ABC

0:05:30.240 --> 0:05:31.840
<v Speaker 1>ten in Sacramento.

0:05:32.160 --> 0:05:34.960
<v Speaker 8>New pole you mentioned today from the California Democratic Party

0:05:35.000 --> 0:05:38.839
<v Speaker 8>shows former US Secretary of State in California Attorney General

0:05:38.960 --> 0:05:40.960
<v Speaker 8>Javier Bassea was he.

0:05:40.960 --> 0:05:46.719
<v Speaker 1>Secretary of state? That's not what Biden said. That's also

0:05:46.800 --> 0:05:51.320
<v Speaker 1>not what the job was for Secretary of Health and Education?

0:05:51.400 --> 0:05:51.640
<v Speaker 9>Is over?

0:05:51.720 --> 0:05:54.040
<v Speaker 8>I nominated Javier Bakaria.

0:05:54.320 --> 0:05:57.880
<v Speaker 1>Nobody knows what job this guy had. There is so

0:05:58.040 --> 0:06:00.680
<v Speaker 1>much confusion going on right now in this state.

0:06:02.760 --> 0:06:09.839
<v Speaker 8>Former US Secretary of State inn Nope.

0:06:08.880 --> 0:06:13.360
<v Speaker 1>You're not even warm. Well. The people over at ABC

0:06:13.480 --> 0:06:15.640
<v Speaker 1>ten are probably worried that if that tang in next

0:06:15.680 --> 0:06:18.320
<v Speaker 1>our merger happens, that they're all losing their jobs, so

0:06:18.360 --> 0:06:21.920
<v Speaker 1>they might be a little stressed. The robots won't get

0:06:21.960 --> 0:06:22.440
<v Speaker 1>that wrong.

0:06:23.520 --> 0:06:27.640
<v Speaker 8>State and California Attorney General Javier Bassera got the largest

0:06:27.760 --> 0:06:31.200
<v Speaker 8>bump following Eric Swalwell's resignation, and that wasn't the only

0:06:31.320 --> 0:06:34.080
<v Speaker 8>change the California I love it.

0:06:34.160 --> 0:06:38.360
<v Speaker 1>Nobody knows what Bessarah did in the Biden administration. Nobody,

0:06:38.400 --> 0:06:42.360
<v Speaker 1>what does that tell you about him?

0:06:42.400 --> 0:06:45.919
<v Speaker 8>The California Democratic Party published a poll earlier this month

0:06:46.000 --> 0:06:49.880
<v Speaker 8>after surveying likely California voters at the time. It showed

0:06:49.960 --> 0:06:53.760
<v Speaker 8>the two leading Republican candidates, Steve Hilton and Chad Bianco,

0:06:53.960 --> 0:06:58.440
<v Speaker 8>tied for first at fourteen percent each, with then Congressman

0:06:58.600 --> 0:07:01.480
<v Speaker 8>Eric Swalwell leading the des with twelve percent.

0:07:04.600 --> 0:07:07.280
<v Speaker 2>I'll have times have changed. I wonder what he's up

0:07:07.320 --> 0:07:12.120
<v Speaker 2>to these days. Has anyone seen him? He's not at

0:07:12.120 --> 0:07:13.640
<v Speaker 2>Steve Klubeck's house anymore.

0:07:14.040 --> 0:07:14.320
<v Speaker 1>Noop.

0:07:14.760 --> 0:07:18.320
<v Speaker 8>Since then, President Trump announced his endorsement of Hilton, and

0:07:18.360 --> 0:07:21.760
<v Speaker 8>the California Republican Party declined to endorse a candidate at

0:07:21.800 --> 0:07:23.520
<v Speaker 8>their convention for the crowd.

0:07:23.640 --> 0:07:26.560
<v Speaker 1>Their convention did the same thing that Democrat convention did,

0:07:26.560 --> 0:07:29.000
<v Speaker 1>where the delegates said, now we can't get to a

0:07:29.040 --> 0:07:31.960
<v Speaker 1>consensus here, we'll take a pass.

0:07:32.000 --> 0:07:33.800
<v Speaker 8>For the crowded Democratic field.

0:07:33.960 --> 0:07:36.520
<v Speaker 4>Certainly, the race was in many ways sort of reset

0:07:36.560 --> 0:07:37.280
<v Speaker 4>two weeks ago.

0:07:37.480 --> 0:07:39.960
<v Speaker 8>That's Rusty Hicks, Chair of the California.

0:07:39.520 --> 0:07:43.200
<v Speaker 2>He sounds like a robot two. Can we play that

0:07:43.360 --> 0:07:47.360
<v Speaker 2>up against robot Barbara Ferrara, Let's see yes, I can

0:07:47.400 --> 0:07:50.600
<v Speaker 2>do that. Let's see Ferrara. So I have to got

0:07:50.640 --> 0:07:52.880
<v Speaker 2>a Ferrara robot and I have to find it. There

0:07:52.920 --> 0:07:53.240
<v Speaker 2>we go.

0:07:53.360 --> 0:07:59.960
<v Speaker 1>So here is Here is Rusty Hicks from the californ

0:08:00.440 --> 0:08:01.320
<v Speaker 1>Democratic Party.

0:08:01.440 --> 0:08:04.040
<v Speaker 4>Certainly the race was in many ways sort of reset

0:08:04.080 --> 0:08:06.840
<v Speaker 4>two weeks ago, and here is Babs.

0:08:07.000 --> 0:08:08.280
<v Speaker 1>I don't like wearing a mask.

0:08:08.720 --> 0:08:09.760
<v Speaker 4>I find it annoying.

0:08:12.560 --> 0:08:15.800
<v Speaker 2>I'm telling you. Maybe the robots have already taken over.

0:08:16.720 --> 0:08:19.320
<v Speaker 4>Certainly, the race was in many ways sort of reset

0:08:19.320 --> 0:08:20.040
<v Speaker 4>two weeks ago.

0:08:20.280 --> 0:08:21.760
<v Speaker 8>That's Rusty Hicks, chair of them.

0:08:21.840 --> 0:08:23.800
<v Speaker 2>But even two weeks ago, it's like a week and

0:08:23.840 --> 0:08:26.640
<v Speaker 2>a half ago. Boy, time flies by.

0:08:27.680 --> 0:08:28.320
<v Speaker 8>That's Rusty.

0:08:28.440 --> 0:08:30.440
<v Speaker 1>I feel like we've been talking about this governor's race

0:08:30.480 --> 0:08:31.280
<v Speaker 1>for three years.

0:08:35.240 --> 0:08:38.800
<v Speaker 8>That's Rusty Hicks, chair of the California Democratic Party, talking

0:08:38.840 --> 0:08:42.120
<v Speaker 8>about Eric Swalwell dropping out of the race and resigning

0:08:42.160 --> 0:08:46.560
<v Speaker 8>from Congress amid serious accusations of sexual assault and harassment,

0:08:46.600 --> 0:08:50.640
<v Speaker 8>which Swalwell has denied. Hick spoke with journalists Monday after

0:08:50.679 --> 0:08:54.640
<v Speaker 8>the party released their newest poll, apparently showing Trump's endorsement

0:08:54.720 --> 0:08:58.600
<v Speaker 8>of Hilton moving the needle. He now leads with sixteen percent.

0:08:58.800 --> 0:09:02.880
<v Speaker 8>His fellow Republican room at fourteen percent and with swallwell

0:09:02.960 --> 0:09:06.480
<v Speaker 8>out of the race. Javier Baseerra jumped nine percentage points

0:09:06.480 --> 0:09:08.000
<v Speaker 8>to thirteen percent.

0:09:07.920 --> 0:09:09.520
<v Speaker 1>The Besserah bump.

0:09:10.760 --> 0:09:15.600
<v Speaker 2>Nine to thirteen However, what's most important about this poll

0:09:16.120 --> 0:09:18.240
<v Speaker 2>is that it has both of the Republicans in first

0:09:18.240 --> 0:09:22.800
<v Speaker 2>and second place, which means the Democrats haven't gotten gotten

0:09:22.800 --> 0:09:24.080
<v Speaker 2>out of the way of their problem.

0:09:24.240 --> 0:09:28.240
<v Speaker 1>Well almost, I believe in this poll Hilton's in first,

0:09:28.640 --> 0:09:31.400
<v Speaker 1>but Bianco is tied with Stire.

0:09:32.920 --> 0:09:35.560
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, but it doesn't matter which pole you look at.

0:09:36.080 --> 0:09:39.080
<v Speaker 2>Republicans are within the margin of era first and second,

0:09:39.080 --> 0:09:40.319
<v Speaker 2>and all of them still.

0:09:40.559 --> 0:09:43.520
<v Speaker 8>After previously polling in the single digits.

0:09:43.120 --> 0:09:46.640
<v Speaker 4>And is now tied for third with Tom Steyer. And finally,

0:09:46.720 --> 0:09:49.880
<v Speaker 4>more voters are tuning in are beginning to tune into

0:09:49.880 --> 0:09:53.160
<v Speaker 4>the race for governor, as the undecided rate has fallen

0:09:53.200 --> 0:09:56.400
<v Speaker 4>from twenty four percent to twenty percent.

0:09:58.240 --> 0:10:02.200
<v Speaker 2>Boy, he is just a whole lot of enthusiasm. He

0:10:02.320 --> 0:10:03.480
<v Speaker 2>must be fun at a party.

0:10:04.400 --> 0:10:07.280
<v Speaker 4>All of these are positive signs for ensuring that a

0:10:07.360 --> 0:10:09.880
<v Speaker 4>strong Democrat moves into the general election.

0:10:10.080 --> 0:10:12.840
<v Speaker 1>But it seems like Rusty could use some WD forty,

0:10:15.160 --> 0:10:16.040
<v Speaker 1>some B twelve.

0:10:16.600 --> 0:10:19.480
<v Speaker 4>All of these are positive signs for ensuring that a

0:10:19.520 --> 0:10:23.040
<v Speaker 4>strong Democrat moves into the general election. But in my view,

0:10:23.080 --> 0:10:25.480
<v Speaker 4>it's not enough and our work is not done.

0:10:25.679 --> 0:10:29.280
<v Speaker 1>Okay, so who you going after next? Okay? Betty Yee

0:10:29.280 --> 0:10:30.480
<v Speaker 1>gets some virtually nothing.

0:10:31.559 --> 0:10:36.199
<v Speaker 2>Think about this. She was pulling at what one percent? Yes, okay,

0:10:37.200 --> 0:10:40.360
<v Speaker 2>she was raising and spending no money. I don't believe

0:10:40.400 --> 0:10:43.319
<v Speaker 2>I ever saw a Betty Yee commercial on television.

0:10:43.320 --> 0:10:47.560
<v Speaker 1>Did you? She had one commercial that came out about

0:10:47.559 --> 0:10:49.160
<v Speaker 1>a week and a half ago, and I know because

0:10:49.160 --> 0:10:51.320
<v Speaker 1>they premiered it on an interview that she did with

0:10:51.360 --> 0:10:54.480
<v Speaker 1>Marletteis on the Fox local stream where it was a

0:10:54.480 --> 0:10:56.520
<v Speaker 1>bunch of kids saying we like Betty Yee.

0:10:57.520 --> 0:11:00.360
<v Speaker 2>Okay, I understand that she made them, but did you

0:11:00.400 --> 0:11:04.000
<v Speaker 2>actually see it on television outside of that one news

0:11:04.040 --> 0:11:05.520
<v Speaker 2>report that they didn't pay for.

0:11:05.880 --> 0:11:10.040
<v Speaker 1>I don't think they did a media buye very expensive.

0:11:10.720 --> 0:11:14.880
<v Speaker 2>And she has virtually no name ID, which means whoever

0:11:15.000 --> 0:11:17.880
<v Speaker 2>is being polled who says they're voting for Betty Yee

0:11:18.160 --> 0:11:21.800
<v Speaker 2>is voting for her for one of two reasons. One,

0:11:22.000 --> 0:11:25.400
<v Speaker 2>they can identify that she's a female, and there are

0:11:25.440 --> 0:11:30.040
<v Speaker 2>certain voters out there, particularly Democratic women, who always vote

0:11:30.040 --> 0:11:33.960
<v Speaker 2>for the female and she has an obviously Asian name,

0:11:35.640 --> 0:11:39.679
<v Speaker 2>her name will still be appearing on the ballot, which means,

0:11:39.720 --> 0:11:43.320
<v Speaker 2>if she's actively campaigning or not, she's going to receive

0:11:43.440 --> 0:11:46.720
<v Speaker 2>one percent, and it's going to come from people who

0:11:46.760 --> 0:11:48.600
<v Speaker 2>want to vote for a woman or want to vote

0:11:48.600 --> 0:11:49.280
<v Speaker 2>for an Asian.

0:11:49.840 --> 0:11:53.160
<v Speaker 1>It's funny, so her drop what's that? It's funny that

0:11:53.240 --> 0:11:56.560
<v Speaker 1>you say that, because yesterday when Betty E dropped out

0:11:56.640 --> 0:12:00.000
<v Speaker 1>before the announcement, she sat down with our friend Julie

0:12:00.080 --> 0:12:04.240
<v Speaker 1>Watts of CBS News Investigates and she kind of went

0:12:04.400 --> 0:12:07.400
<v Speaker 1>after the Asians for not supporting her.

0:12:08.320 --> 0:12:11.679
<v Speaker 2>But whatever vote she gets, that's why she's getting it,

0:12:12.920 --> 0:12:17.200
<v Speaker 2>which means, whether she's actively campaigning or not, that one

0:12:17.280 --> 0:12:20.720
<v Speaker 2>percent is still going in her column. So this doesn't

0:12:20.720 --> 0:12:24.160
<v Speaker 2>get Rusty Hicks out of his problem. He needs someone

0:12:24.280 --> 0:12:27.359
<v Speaker 2>with more support to drop out.

0:12:28.080 --> 0:12:30.600
<v Speaker 1>She also said that she had commissioned polls and they

0:12:30.640 --> 0:12:35.319
<v Speaker 1>found that issues like competency and experience nobody cared about

0:12:35.320 --> 0:12:38.679
<v Speaker 1>in this race. Yeah, well, welcome to the party.

0:12:39.360 --> 0:12:44.000
<v Speaker 8>He repeated his call for low polling Democrats to drop out, applauding.

0:12:43.679 --> 0:12:46.640
<v Speaker 1>Yes, let's get thermined out with his less than one percent.

0:12:47.000 --> 0:12:50.640
<v Speaker 2>But it's gonna be the same thing with less than

0:12:50.679 --> 0:12:53.280
<v Speaker 2>one percent, He's still gonna get less than one percent,

0:12:53.360 --> 0:12:54.640
<v Speaker 2>whether he's campaigning or not.

0:12:55.320 --> 0:12:59.040
<v Speaker 1>At this point, the knives are coming out for either

0:12:59.160 --> 0:13:04.200
<v Speaker 1>Katie or Stuff and Steyer's got a lot of money.

0:13:04.720 --> 0:13:10.280
<v Speaker 2>Oh, the next hit is coming for our girl someday,

0:13:10.760 --> 0:13:12.600
<v Speaker 2>any day is gonna happen.

0:13:12.800 --> 0:13:13.319
<v Speaker 3>You can.

0:13:14.960 --> 0:13:18.120
<v Speaker 2>Because if you take her out of the picture, that

0:13:18.160 --> 0:13:24.080
<v Speaker 2>frees up ten percent of the electorate consisting entirely of angry.

0:13:24.160 --> 0:13:28.360
<v Speaker 8>Karen's applauding Betty Yee for her decision to drop out

0:13:28.360 --> 0:13:29.200
<v Speaker 8>of the race Monday.

0:13:29.360 --> 0:13:32.160
<v Speaker 4>I commend her leadership and her commitment to California.

0:13:32.840 --> 0:13:34.880
<v Speaker 1>And I hope I thought when she dropped out, every

0:13:34.920 --> 0:13:38.200
<v Speaker 1>single candidate writes this lovely thing about how great and

0:13:38.280 --> 0:13:41.120
<v Speaker 1>competent and wonderful she is in a policy wonk, and

0:13:42.240 --> 0:13:43.720
<v Speaker 1>nobody's supported her.

0:13:44.360 --> 0:13:47.920
<v Speaker 4>Nope, And I hope other candidates will consider her example

0:13:48.040 --> 0:13:51.120
<v Speaker 4>because the reality is that there are sixty candidates on

0:13:51.200 --> 0:13:51.640
<v Speaker 4>the ballot.

0:13:51.720 --> 0:13:55.280
<v Speaker 1>There are, that is true. Actually it's sixty one.

0:13:56.520 --> 0:13:59.640
<v Speaker 2>And again, just because they're not actively campaigning doesn't mean

0:13:59.640 --> 0:14:02.400
<v Speaker 2>they won't appear on the ballot. Betty Yee will be

0:14:02.480 --> 0:14:05.360
<v Speaker 2>on the ballot. Eric Swalwell will be on the ballot.

0:14:06.640 --> 0:14:11.280
<v Speaker 4>There are still two primary Republicans and now six primary Democrats.

0:14:11.480 --> 0:14:14.720
<v Speaker 8>Ye's announcement was an emotional one, citing a lack of

0:14:14.760 --> 0:14:15.720
<v Speaker 8>finances and.

0:14:15.720 --> 0:14:16.960
<v Speaker 4>Support this journey.

0:14:17.880 --> 0:14:22.080
<v Speaker 8>It is ending today that I work will not end.

0:14:22.440 --> 0:14:25.760
<v Speaker 1>As for the the d Lulu finally ended in reality

0:14:25.840 --> 0:14:28.080
<v Speaker 1>set in that it was never going to happen for

0:14:28.120 --> 0:14:28.720
<v Speaker 1>Betty Yee.

0:14:29.800 --> 0:14:33.240
<v Speaker 2>Well, what's wild is it was always in the cards

0:14:33.280 --> 0:14:36.480
<v Speaker 2>for one of the candidates in the single digits to

0:14:36.560 --> 0:14:39.960
<v Speaker 2>start doing better. It looks like that candidate is going

0:14:40.040 --> 0:14:43.640
<v Speaker 2>to be Besarah, but she had as good a chance

0:14:43.680 --> 0:14:45.840
<v Speaker 2>as any of them as being that person.

0:14:46.920 --> 0:14:50.280
<v Speaker 8>As for the remaining candidates, expect to see more ads

0:14:50.320 --> 0:14:52.360
<v Speaker 8>in this race as the dollars roll in.

0:14:52.960 --> 0:14:55.720
<v Speaker 1>How can we even have more ads? Every spot in

0:14:55.800 --> 0:14:59.440
<v Speaker 1>a break is dire? What's going to happen to flow

0:14:59.440 --> 0:15:00.320
<v Speaker 1>from progress.

0:15:00.360 --> 0:15:03.560
<v Speaker 8>V The latest numbers from the Secretary of State's office

0:15:03.560 --> 0:15:07.600
<v Speaker 8>show billionaire Tom Steyer remains the top fundraiser, mostly his

0:15:07.640 --> 0:15:08.200
<v Speaker 8>own money.

0:15:08.440 --> 0:15:12.080
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, that doesn't count, that is not fundraising. No, that

0:15:12.240 --> 0:15:16.040
<v Speaker 2>is entirely his own money. Do you see the Bernie

0:15:16.040 --> 0:15:20.120
<v Speaker 2>people endorse stire of course, the people who believe that

0:15:20.200 --> 0:15:23.160
<v Speaker 2>being a millionaire should be illegal a billionaire. Excuse me

0:15:23.480 --> 0:15:26.280
<v Speaker 2>get behind the billionaire, followed.

0:15:25.880 --> 0:15:28.960
<v Speaker 8>By San Jose Mayor, Matt Mayhon and Hilton.

0:15:29.000 --> 0:15:31.800
<v Speaker 1>Jim Cooper just endorsed mayhean that's not going to get

0:15:31.880 --> 0:15:32.480
<v Speaker 1>him anything.

0:15:33.800 --> 0:15:38.080
<v Speaker 8>Yep, but Bossea is gaming ground on rivals here. His

0:15:38.320 --> 0:15:41.880
<v Speaker 8>rate of overall fundraising is growing faster than almost everyone

0:15:41.920 --> 0:15:43.920
<v Speaker 8>in the field, trailing only stier.

0:15:44.080 --> 0:15:46.720
<v Speaker 2>Candidates are beginning to spend way Via Gosa hasn't even

0:15:46.760 --> 0:15:51.640
<v Speaker 2>gott to mention in this story. No boy, they disrespected him.

0:15:52.280 --> 0:15:55.720
<v Speaker 4>Candidates are beginning to spend their resources, and voters are

0:15:55.720 --> 0:15:57.920
<v Speaker 4>beginning to pay attention and new in different ways.

0:15:58.920 --> 0:16:02.120
<v Speaker 1>They're paying attention because of the sex scandal. Oh yeah,

0:16:02.200 --> 0:16:04.240
<v Speaker 1>people are interested in that now.

0:16:04.280 --> 0:16:07.480
<v Speaker 8>At this point in the race, candidates' names will remain

0:16:07.560 --> 0:16:10.120
<v Speaker 8>on the ballots even if they drop out. That means

0:16:10.200 --> 0:16:14.440
<v Speaker 8>voters will see Ye's and Swalwell's names. Democratic Party leaders

0:16:14.480 --> 0:16:17.080
<v Speaker 8>say they're working to educate voters on who has dropped

0:16:17.080 --> 0:16:18.160
<v Speaker 8>out Alex.

0:16:17.920 --> 0:16:19.880
<v Speaker 1>All right, Becky, what are they going to have put

0:16:19.880 --> 0:16:22.680

0:19:32.359 --> 0:19:35.320
<v Speaker 1>KMG now app because we're on that station Saturdays at noon.

0:19:35.400 --> 0:19:38.360
<v Speaker 1>You can smell it right here, she's smelling the agriculture.

0:19:38.600 --> 0:19:40.720
<v Speaker 1>There are so many different ways to listen live to

0:19:40.760 --> 0:19:42.840
<v Speaker 1>this show and download all the podcasts.

0:19:42.880 --> 0:19:44.240
<v Speaker 11>Winter Winter Chicken Dinner.

0:19:45.640 --> 0:19:46.159
<v Speaker 1>All right.

0:19:46.359 --> 0:19:49.159
<v Speaker 2>If you were given the opportunity to ask a question

0:19:49.400 --> 0:19:51.800
<v Speaker 2>any of the candidates in one of the upcoming debates,

0:19:52.119 --> 0:19:55.520
<v Speaker 2>what would it be? Eight hundred two two two five

0:19:55.640 --> 0:19:59.200
<v Speaker 2>two two two. Let's begin with Randy and Mission via

0:19:59.320 --> 0:20:00.879
<v Speaker 2>ho Randy, Hello.

0:20:02.080 --> 0:20:08.119
<v Speaker 11>Good afternoon. I would ask the candidates if they presently

0:20:08.160 --> 0:20:11.840
<v Speaker 11>support top thirteen and if they will continue to defend

0:20:12.160 --> 0:20:18.119
<v Speaker 11>a tax on Prop thirteen for everyone, including seniors and Republicans.

0:20:20.320 --> 0:20:24.320
<v Speaker 2>That is a very interesting question because Tom Steyer has

0:20:24.480 --> 0:20:28.239
<v Speaker 2>put the split role at the top of his to

0:20:28.320 --> 0:20:32.000
<v Speaker 2>do list. He says that if he gets elected that

0:20:32.000 --> 0:20:34.280
<v Speaker 2>that's one of the first things he will do as governor.

0:20:34.600 --> 0:20:37.359
<v Speaker 2>He'll call for a special election, and he wants to

0:20:37.400 --> 0:20:39.600
<v Speaker 2>blow up half of Proposition thirteen.

0:20:39.720 --> 0:20:41.800
<v Speaker 1>Now, there's only one reason to do that.

0:20:42.440 --> 0:20:44.399
<v Speaker 2>You blow up half of it so you can go

0:20:44.440 --> 0:20:47.600
<v Speaker 2>get the second half later. Because the people who hate

0:20:47.640 --> 0:20:50.879
<v Speaker 2>Prop thirteen hate all of it, they don't hate portions

0:20:50.920 --> 0:20:55.480
<v Speaker 2>of it. I would imagine that many on the Democratic

0:20:55.560 --> 0:20:57.960
<v Speaker 2>side of the aisle believe the same way as him,

0:20:58.440 --> 0:21:01.080
<v Speaker 2>maybe all of them except Matt Maye Hand and potentially

0:21:01.400 --> 0:21:06.280
<v Speaker 2>Antonio Viragosa. I would assume that both Republican candidates support

0:21:06.280 --> 0:21:09.560
<v Speaker 2>Prop thirteen, but that's just an assumption. I would love

0:21:09.600 --> 0:21:12.000
<v Speaker 2>to get them on the record. So that's an excellent question.

0:21:13.040 --> 0:21:14.639
<v Speaker 11>Pull their toes to the fire.

0:21:15.760 --> 0:21:18.720
<v Speaker 2>All right, thank you for the call, sir. Let's go

0:21:18.880 --> 0:21:24.440
<v Speaker 2>to Caleb in Rancho Cucamonga. Caleb, Hello, all.

0:21:24.480 --> 0:21:27.920
<v Speaker 12>Right, I'd like to ask both the Republican candidates how

0:21:28.040 --> 0:21:32.160
<v Speaker 12>they plan to get their economic agenda past all those

0:21:32.320 --> 0:21:34.480
<v Speaker 12>crazy people in Sacramento.

0:21:36.520 --> 0:21:40.560
<v Speaker 2>That's a very good question, because the state legislature would

0:21:40.640 --> 0:21:44.560
<v Speaker 2>likely still be controlled by super majorities in both the

0:21:44.600 --> 0:21:48.520
<v Speaker 2>Assembly and the Senate. They clearly don't see the world

0:21:48.560 --> 0:21:52.399
<v Speaker 2>the same way as either Republican So how is it

0:21:52.440 --> 0:21:56.400
<v Speaker 2>that you would govern when you have a hostile legislature

0:21:56.680 --> 0:22:03.119
<v Speaker 2>who can override your vetos.

0:22:00.560 --> 0:22:02.720
<v Speaker 12>And they can kick them out if they don't like

0:22:02.760 --> 0:22:06.200
<v Speaker 12>their vetos, they can expel them like they're trying with Trump.

0:22:08.440 --> 0:22:11.439
<v Speaker 2>My guess, and this is just a guess. Again, this

0:22:11.480 --> 0:22:14.600
<v Speaker 2>would be an excellent question to ask the candidates. Wou'd

0:22:14.680 --> 0:22:18.119
<v Speaker 2>be that the Republicans would look for moderate Democrats in

0:22:18.160 --> 0:22:21.040
<v Speaker 2>the mold of Matt Mahon, and they would try to

0:22:21.080 --> 0:22:25.000
<v Speaker 2>come up with a governing majority that would allow them

0:22:25.040 --> 0:22:27.720
<v Speaker 2>to get at least some of their agenda through. If

0:22:27.760 --> 0:22:31.040
<v Speaker 2>you go back to Alaska politics, for example, that's what

0:22:31.160 --> 0:22:35.480
<v Speaker 2>Sarah Palin did. Even though Alaska is a Republican state,

0:22:36.240 --> 0:22:39.480
<v Speaker 2>there were two factions of Republicans. There was the Old Guard,

0:22:39.520 --> 0:22:43.200
<v Speaker 2>the establishment, and there was the New Guard, the reformers.

0:22:43.680 --> 0:22:46.320
<v Speaker 2>And what she did was she peeled off some of

0:22:46.359 --> 0:22:51.760
<v Speaker 2>the reformer Republicans and the Democrats and created a governing majority.

0:22:52.119 --> 0:22:55.399
<v Speaker 2>And that's how she ruled in Alaska. And that really

0:22:55.480 --> 0:22:59.159
<v Speaker 2>upset the Republican machine because she didn't have to go

0:22:59.240 --> 0:23:02.240
<v Speaker 2>through them to get her agenda through. She just went

0:23:02.359 --> 0:23:10.080
<v Speaker 2>around them by creating her own coalition. All right, thank

0:23:10.119 --> 0:23:13.760
<v Speaker 2>you for the call, sir. Let's go to Robert in

0:23:13.880 --> 0:23:14.480
<v Speaker 2>San Jose.

0:23:14.800 --> 0:23:19.280
<v Speaker 7>Robert, Hello, Yeah, I'd like to ask stire what his

0:23:19.359 --> 0:23:22.920
<v Speaker 7>logic is behind making grocery stores suffer and all these

0:23:23.200 --> 0:23:26.480
<v Speaker 7>you know, commercial property owners suffer. I mean these that

0:23:26.600 --> 0:23:29.800
<v Speaker 7>confiscatory is mundonniy we were, you know, but I'd ask

0:23:29.880 --> 0:23:31.879
<v Speaker 7>him straight to his face, what's his logic. He seems

0:23:31.920 --> 0:23:35.359
<v Speaker 7>like a scarcity oligarch creator who's fully arrogant. The guy

0:23:35.400 --> 0:23:38.840
<v Speaker 7>is insane. And when he's not helping anybody, we're trying

0:23:38.880 --> 0:23:41.560
<v Speaker 7>to hold onto our homes here, you know. And this

0:23:41.560 --> 0:23:45.200
<v Speaker 7>this mind virus of taxing property is just getting way

0:23:45.240 --> 0:23:48.159
<v Speaker 7>past what the bill of rights, you know, the Madisonian

0:23:48.160 --> 0:23:50.760
<v Speaker 7>tradition of himinent domain. We should all be fairly compensated

0:23:50.840 --> 0:23:53.600
<v Speaker 7>not to seize our property, and we can't have seized

0:23:53.640 --> 0:23:56.320
<v Speaker 7>just by taxing too. That's just this is this is crazy,

0:23:56.359 --> 0:23:57.760
<v Speaker 7>But he seems like he's all in on that.

0:23:58.800 --> 0:24:01.080
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, what does he think that going to do to inflation?

0:24:02.119 --> 0:24:05.680
<v Speaker 2>If all of a sudden, every mom and pop shop,

0:24:06.000 --> 0:24:13.600
<v Speaker 2>every convenience store, every place where commerce is commenced, if

0:24:13.640 --> 0:24:17.080
<v Speaker 2>they suddenly have to start paying property taxes on property

0:24:17.400 --> 0:24:20.919
<v Speaker 2>that they own, above and beyond what Prop thirteen sets

0:24:20.920 --> 0:24:23.240
<v Speaker 2>it at. What does he think is going to happen

0:24:23.359 --> 0:24:26.480
<v Speaker 2>to prices? Prices are going to go through the roof.

0:24:26.960 --> 0:24:29.960
<v Speaker 2>And you look at let's just say jewelry stores, for example.

0:24:30.280 --> 0:24:33.520
<v Speaker 2>How often do jewelry stores make the blotter because they

0:24:33.560 --> 0:24:36.719
<v Speaker 2>get robbed and then we find out they have no insurance.

0:24:37.280 --> 0:24:40.479
<v Speaker 2>So whatever it is that's stolen from their store is

0:24:40.560 --> 0:24:44.119
<v Speaker 2>just something that no longer exists, and they're not compensated

0:24:44.160 --> 0:24:47.960
<v Speaker 2>for it. What are they paying an insurance? The ones

0:24:48.000 --> 0:24:50.960
<v Speaker 2>that do have insurance, it just goes through the roof.

0:24:51.040 --> 0:24:53.920
<v Speaker 2>Every time they get a new policy, it goes up

0:24:53.920 --> 0:24:55.960
<v Speaker 2>and up and up and up and up. They can

0:24:56.000 --> 0:24:59.399
<v Speaker 2>barely hang on as it is. If all of a sudden,

0:24:59.440 --> 0:25:02.479
<v Speaker 2>you're going to at their property taxes up too. I

0:25:02.480 --> 0:25:05.080
<v Speaker 2>don't see how you expect these stores to hang on.

0:25:07.320 --> 0:25:10.680
<v Speaker 7>Well, yeah, you like inflation actually infects the insurance market.

0:25:10.720 --> 0:25:14.840
<v Speaker 7>It's already matched out. You know, every policy. I don't

0:25:14.840 --> 0:25:16.600
<v Speaker 7>know why they don't want to get rid of the

0:25:16.600 --> 0:25:19.199
<v Speaker 7>infectors in the economy. So you could gauge a million

0:25:19.200 --> 0:25:22.520
<v Speaker 7>people on let's say a healthcare plan. That policy is

0:25:22.520 --> 0:25:25.760
<v Speaker 7>a lot cheaper or helping the hell the homeless policy?

0:25:25.800 --> 0:25:27.840
<v Speaker 7>Which would it is the allotment that you put to this,

0:25:27.840 --> 0:25:29.720
<v Speaker 7>it has to be a lot smaller amount. If you

0:25:29.720 --> 0:25:32.439
<v Speaker 7>get rid of inflation, you can actually offer it. But

0:25:32.520 --> 0:25:35.680
<v Speaker 7>he wants to create inflation. He doesn't make any sense.

0:25:35.720 --> 0:25:37.560
<v Speaker 7>He's not he wants to do all these good things,

0:25:37.600 --> 0:25:40.680
<v Speaker 7>but he's uh, you know, conflict of interest as far

0:25:40.720 --> 0:25:42.840
<v Speaker 7>as you know, inflating the cost of every one of

0:25:42.840 --> 0:25:46.160
<v Speaker 7>these things up, you know. So you know, I think

0:25:46.160 --> 0:25:46.720
<v Speaker 7>we're gonna.

0:25:46.680 --> 0:25:48.440
<v Speaker 2>I'll also say this, and I don't want to knock

0:25:48.480 --> 0:25:51.040
<v Speaker 2>anyone's profession because we all do what we do. We

0:25:51.119 --> 0:25:54.080
<v Speaker 2>all pay taxes, we all have to pay our mortgage,

0:25:54.119 --> 0:25:58.120
<v Speaker 2>we all have to pay our bills. There's a difference

0:25:58.200 --> 0:26:03.159
<v Speaker 2>between creating something. If you own a widget factory, or

0:26:03.200 --> 0:26:06.919
<v Speaker 2>you have a tire shop, or you create something for

0:26:07.000 --> 0:26:09.919
<v Speaker 2>someone I don't know what it is. You beanie babies

0:26:09.960 --> 0:26:14.240
<v Speaker 2>on the Internet, whatever it is, you provide a service

0:26:14.280 --> 0:26:17.800
<v Speaker 2>for someone else and something is created based off of

0:26:17.840 --> 0:26:21.679
<v Speaker 2>your labor. What Tom Steyer did to make his money

0:26:21.760 --> 0:26:25.480
<v Speaker 2>was just moving money around. And there seems to be

0:26:25.560 --> 0:26:29.280
<v Speaker 2>a difference in the attitudes that people have when they

0:26:29.280 --> 0:26:32.719
<v Speaker 2>make a gazillion dollars moving money around as opposed to

0:26:32.760 --> 0:26:36.640
<v Speaker 2>creating something. If you create something, you have to deal

0:26:36.680 --> 0:26:39.560
<v Speaker 2>with regulations, You have to deal with insurance, you have

0:26:39.600 --> 0:26:42.919
<v Speaker 2>to deal with crime, you have to deal with regulation

0:26:43.160 --> 0:26:46.400
<v Speaker 2>and electeds and all of that. And if all you're

0:26:46.440 --> 0:26:49.439
<v Speaker 2>doing is sitting in front of a laptop computer and

0:26:49.480 --> 0:26:52.960
<v Speaker 2>you're clicking buttons and you're moving money around, Yeah, you

0:26:53.000 --> 0:26:55.720
<v Speaker 2>can make a ton of money if the stock market

0:26:55.760 --> 0:26:57.920
<v Speaker 2>is going in the right direction and you have enough

0:26:57.960 --> 0:27:01.000
<v Speaker 2>money to play with, Oh boy, can you make it rain.

0:27:01.800 --> 0:27:06.199
<v Speaker 2>But that doesn't necessarily mean you understand how the world works.

0:27:06.960 --> 0:27:11.800
<v Speaker 2>That doesn't mean you can sympathize, and you can I

0:27:11.840 --> 0:27:16.879
<v Speaker 2>don't know even just comprehend what a small business owner

0:27:17.000 --> 0:27:20.280
<v Speaker 2>is going through on a daily basis. And I really

0:27:20.320 --> 0:27:23.199
<v Speaker 2>get the impression that that man is clueless. But he

0:27:23.280 --> 0:27:26.480
<v Speaker 2>thinks that because he made a billion dollars he's brilliant

0:27:26.920 --> 0:27:29.919
<v Speaker 2>when in reality he has no idea what's going on

0:27:30.000 --> 0:27:33.400
<v Speaker 2>in this state. Let's not forget Randy who was it?

0:27:33.480 --> 0:27:36.240
<v Speaker 2>Was it the interview with Ashley Zuvala when he was

0:27:36.280 --> 0:27:38.960
<v Speaker 2>asked what grade would you give Gavin Newsom? And his

0:27:39.080 --> 0:27:42.480
<v Speaker 2>answer was, oh, I haven't paid enough attention to it

0:27:42.640 --> 0:27:44.240
<v Speaker 2>to give it an answer to that question.

0:27:44.520 --> 0:27:50.359
<v Speaker 1>I haven't really even following it. And he wants the job.

0:27:51.400 --> 0:27:56.119
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, all right, let's go to Stuart in CLB.

0:27:56.400 --> 0:28:01.040
<v Speaker 13>Stuart, Hello, thank you John Ran for taking my call.

0:28:01.600 --> 0:28:04.959
<v Speaker 13>I'd like to have a quick roarsoch test of the

0:28:05.000 --> 0:28:09.600
<v Speaker 13>Democratic candidates to see who's far off the complete radar

0:28:10.359 --> 0:28:13.720
<v Speaker 13>of sanity. So I would ask them who a the

0:28:13.800 --> 0:28:18.199
<v Speaker 13>Democrats would continue the policy of Gavin Newsom paying for

0:28:18.359 --> 0:28:24.040
<v Speaker 13>transgendered surgeries of criminals imprison and illegal aliens. That would

0:28:24.040 --> 0:28:28.280
<v Speaker 13>be the question to determine the sanity of each of them.

0:28:29.200 --> 0:28:32.720
<v Speaker 2>That would certainly be an interesting question. My guess is

0:28:32.960 --> 0:28:36.000
<v Speaker 2>all of the Democrats except for Mayhan or via Regosa

0:28:36.080 --> 0:28:39.840
<v Speaker 2>would say yes. Via Regosa and Mayhan would say no,

0:28:40.120 --> 0:28:44.000
<v Speaker 2>and both Republicans would say no. But maybe this is

0:28:44.040 --> 0:28:46.600
<v Speaker 2>the new plank of the Democratic Party. It's the update

0:28:47.080 --> 0:28:50.000
<v Speaker 2>to the old ways of doing business. When first it

0:28:50.080 --> 0:28:52.520
<v Speaker 2>was a chicken in every pot, then it was a

0:28:52.560 --> 0:28:55.520
<v Speaker 2>car in every garage, and now it's to Richard for

0:28:55.600 --> 0:28:56.760
<v Speaker 2>every illegal alien.

0:28:57.040 --> 0:29:00.680
<v Speaker 7>Oh boy, one.

0:29:00.520 --> 0:29:04.880
<v Speaker 13>Other point, quickly, if ben Yee is not running anymore,

0:29:04.960 --> 0:29:09.479
<v Speaker 13>can Kanye West, who's also known as Ye take her spot,

0:29:09.640 --> 0:29:14.080
<v Speaker 13>because being a bipolar anti Semite might be a winning

0:29:14.400 --> 0:29:17.480
<v Speaker 13>formula for the Democrats.

0:29:17.520 --> 0:29:18.360
<v Speaker 1>They switch.

0:29:18.480 --> 0:29:21.240
<v Speaker 13>Huh the Ye switch.

0:29:21.840 --> 0:29:24.680
<v Speaker 1>It could happen. Thank you for the call, sir. This

0:29:25.200 --> 0:29:31.680
<v Speaker 1>man what the rock is eight hundred two two two

0:29:31.800 --> 0:29:35.240
<v Speaker 1>five two two two? He is a jellphone number? What

0:29:35.400 --> 0:29:38.680
<v Speaker 1>eight hundred two two two five two two two The.

0:29:38.720 --> 0:29:41.680
<v Speaker 2>Fixed California hour coming up after the news at one

0:29:41.840 --> 0:29:44.920
<v Speaker 2>Fox News is Trace Gallagher Joints y, So make sure

0:29:44.960 --> 0:29:47.719
<v Speaker 2>you stick around with that. Let's go back to the

0:29:47.760 --> 0:29:50.720
<v Speaker 2>phones and welcome Craig in Los Gatos.

0:29:50.880 --> 0:29:56.440
<v Speaker 14>Craig, Hello, Hey, John, I've been content our trying to

0:29:56.520 --> 0:30:00.240
<v Speaker 14>contact Hilton's campaign because they're missing as teachers. I'm a

0:30:00.240 --> 0:30:05.440
<v Speaker 14>teacher and the unions have just totally thrown the ball

0:30:05.480 --> 0:30:09.800
<v Speaker 14>in on this one because the fraudulent behavior here in

0:30:09.840 --> 0:30:12.800
<v Speaker 14>the state is taking so many millions out of the

0:30:12.840 --> 0:30:16.760
<v Speaker 14>general fund, which means that they can offer less for

0:30:16.840 --> 0:30:20.240
<v Speaker 14>the districts. Now, if that were included, then they can

0:30:20.280 --> 0:30:22.440
<v Speaker 14>give more to the districts. They may not have to

0:30:22.480 --> 0:30:26.280
<v Speaker 14>close all the schools. Teachers, more importantly, could be offered

0:30:26.400 --> 0:30:32.160
<v Speaker 14>maybe a percentage more in their salary offerings. And instead,

0:30:32.360 --> 0:30:36.280
<v Speaker 14>what we're doing, we're telling the parents. And I object

0:30:36.280 --> 0:30:39.560
<v Speaker 14>to this telling parents it is in their court to

0:30:39.640 --> 0:30:43.080
<v Speaker 14>pay more property tax. We even used to have to

0:30:43.160 --> 0:30:46.320
<v Speaker 14>call them to pass bonds. And I'm going, wait a minute,

0:30:46.360 --> 0:30:50.000
<v Speaker 14>it's not the parents, it's the fraudulent behavior. But when

0:30:50.040 --> 0:30:54.760
<v Speaker 14>you contact your local state rep here in California, they

0:30:54.800 --> 0:30:59.320
<v Speaker 14>will not, I repeat, not even comment on the whole

0:30:59.360 --> 0:31:02.320
<v Speaker 14>issue of the fraudulent behavior. They figured that we're just

0:31:02.360 --> 0:31:05.720
<v Speaker 14>going to raise property tax to replace the money that's

0:31:05.760 --> 0:31:08.680
<v Speaker 14>being taken out of the general fund because of the

0:31:09.600 --> 0:31:12.360
<v Speaker 14>you know, it was even on a local channel here

0:31:12.600 --> 0:31:15.320
<v Speaker 14>with the ghost students, et cetera, et cetera, the hospices.

0:31:15.680 --> 0:31:17.560
<v Speaker 14>You know, it just goes on and on. But they're

0:31:17.560 --> 0:31:20.640
<v Speaker 14>missing out on the teachers. That's the part that I

0:31:20.760 --> 0:31:23.800
<v Speaker 14>just don't understand. I've called my union and saying, why

0:31:23.840 --> 0:31:26.880
<v Speaker 14>aren't you telling the rest of the you know, the

0:31:26.920 --> 0:31:31.160
<v Speaker 14>teachers to start calling their reps and asking for more accountability,

0:31:31.200 --> 0:31:33.880
<v Speaker 14>which means more money in the general fund, which means

0:31:33.920 --> 0:31:38.080
<v Speaker 14>more money for teachers. It's a it's such a no brainer.

0:31:39.120 --> 0:31:42.280
<v Speaker 2>I think the working assumption and I'm just making the job,

0:31:42.800 --> 0:31:45.480
<v Speaker 2>but I think their assumption is that the waste, fraud

0:31:45.480 --> 0:31:48.440
<v Speaker 2>and abuse is going to the right people, and if

0:31:48.440 --> 0:31:50.480
<v Speaker 2>you actually blew the whistle on it, it would be

0:31:50.520 --> 0:31:51.280
<v Speaker 2>friendly fire.

0:31:54.120 --> 0:31:56.760
<v Speaker 14>I agree with that. There has to be a reason

0:31:56.800 --> 0:31:59.600
<v Speaker 14>why they won't tackle it. You know, you're totally right.

0:32:00.120 --> 0:32:03.719
<v Speaker 14>It's going into spots that benefits some of them and

0:32:03.760 --> 0:32:06.920
<v Speaker 14>they don't want to touch it. You're right, all right.

0:32:06.920 --> 0:32:09.240
<v Speaker 2>Thank you for the call, sir, We appreciate it. Let's

0:32:09.240 --> 0:32:11.800
<v Speaker 2>go to Randy Admission Viejo Randy, Hello.

0:32:13.120 --> 0:32:15.720
<v Speaker 11>Hello, I was calling to see if any of the

0:32:15.800 --> 0:32:22.160
<v Speaker 11>governors would defund California high speed rail, veto it, if

0:32:22.280 --> 0:32:24.880
<v Speaker 11>they want to spend more money on it, to see

0:32:24.920 --> 0:32:28.400
<v Speaker 11>if we who's really still behind high speed rail?

0:32:28.440 --> 0:32:28.640
<v Speaker 14>Here?

0:32:30.360 --> 0:32:33.600
<v Speaker 2>What's wild and this was before Mayhan got into the rays,

0:32:34.120 --> 0:32:37.960
<v Speaker 2>but what was wild was many of the Democratic candidates

0:32:38.400 --> 0:32:41.880
<v Speaker 2>had essentially the position that you just outlined as the

0:32:41.920 --> 0:32:44.760
<v Speaker 2>official position, and then they went in front of the

0:32:44.840 --> 0:32:48.520
<v Speaker 2>unions in the Central Valley and they changed course and

0:32:48.560 --> 0:32:51.880
<v Speaker 2>the answer became, Yeah, I want to keep high speed rail,

0:32:51.960 --> 0:32:53.840
<v Speaker 2>but the way to get away from all the fraud

0:32:53.920 --> 0:32:56.960
<v Speaker 2>is to put me in charge. And if I was

0:32:57.040 --> 0:33:00.680
<v Speaker 2>in charge, this project would actually get done. And that's

0:33:00.720 --> 0:33:03.680
<v Speaker 2>the position that they took, which, of course is bunk

0:33:04.320 --> 0:33:07.200
<v Speaker 2>because if Jerry Brown is smarter than all of them,

0:33:07.640 --> 0:33:10.880
<v Speaker 2>Gavin Newsom is probably smarter than all of them, they

0:33:10.920 --> 0:33:13.640
<v Speaker 2>couldn't get it done. If they can't get it done,

0:33:13.960 --> 0:33:17.200
<v Speaker 2>how can the tallest building in Omaha get it done.

0:33:21.440 --> 0:33:25.040
<v Speaker 11>Yeah, we're just throwing good money after bad on that deal.

0:33:25.280 --> 0:33:29.880
<v Speaker 1>That was a job to begin with, no question about it.

0:33:29.920 --> 0:33:32.560
<v Speaker 1>Thank you for the call, sir. Let's go to Frank

0:33:32.600 --> 0:33:33.480
<v Speaker 1>in Redwood City.

0:33:33.520 --> 0:33:39.120
<v Speaker 3>Frank, Hello, Hey, Just two questions I want to ask

0:33:39.200 --> 0:33:42.480
<v Speaker 3>the candidates. One is, what would you do different than

0:33:42.560 --> 0:33:49.640
<v Speaker 3>Gavin Newsom has done? And as far as tax all

0:33:49.720 --> 0:33:53.160
<v Speaker 3>the legal immigrants coming into the country, how would you

0:33:53.240 --> 0:33:56.160
<v Speaker 3>answer that without trying to blame Donald Trump? And the

0:33:56.200 --> 0:33:59.760
<v Speaker 3>second question I would ask is do you support the

0:34:00.360 --> 0:34:03.240
<v Speaker 3>Nick Shirley Act and why would you support it if

0:34:03.240 --> 0:34:07.280
<v Speaker 3>he's trying to locate fraud and help with eliminating fraud.

0:34:07.600 --> 0:34:11.480
<v Speaker 3>Those are my two questions. I asked the candidates, Well.

0:34:11.280 --> 0:34:13.799
<v Speaker 2>What you're asking for is the impossible, which is to

0:34:13.840 --> 0:34:17.120
<v Speaker 2>get them to talk about California without referencing Donald Trump.

0:34:17.719 --> 0:34:20.680
<v Speaker 2>And they can't do that because if they were to

0:34:20.760 --> 0:34:23.520
<v Speaker 2>only talk about California, it would be a bad look

0:34:23.960 --> 0:34:27.200
<v Speaker 2>because of the pottery barn rule of politics. You broke it,

0:34:27.320 --> 0:34:30.239
<v Speaker 2>you bought it. They broke it. They don't know how

0:34:30.239 --> 0:34:33.200
<v Speaker 2>to fix it. So let's talk about Donald Trump instead.

0:34:38.200 --> 0:34:40.920
<v Speaker 2>Thank you for the calls here, all right, thank you.

0:34:41.400 --> 0:34:47.239
<v Speaker 2>Let's go to John and San Jose. John, Hello, Hey, John,

0:34:47.280 --> 0:34:47.880
<v Speaker 2>Hey Randy.

0:34:49.280 --> 0:34:53.239
<v Speaker 9>My question would be to Steve Hilton and they would

0:34:53.239 --> 0:34:57.680
<v Speaker 9>go as follows. During your time at Fox, have you

0:34:57.680 --> 0:35:01.080
<v Speaker 9>ever spent time in a hot tub with Greg Gutfeld

0:35:01.120 --> 0:35:04.319
<v Speaker 9>and Larry Kudlow? And the follow up question might be

0:35:04.600 --> 0:35:11.000
<v Speaker 9>how come I wasn't invited?

0:35:12.200 --> 0:35:14.640
<v Speaker 2>All right, thank you for the call, sir, We appreciate it,

0:35:14.880 --> 0:35:18.000
<v Speaker 2>and thank you for not including Caitlin Jenner. Let's go

0:35:18.080 --> 0:35:22.680
<v Speaker 2>to Cynthia in San Francisco. Cynthia, Hello, Hey.

0:35:22.520 --> 0:35:25.800
<v Speaker 10>Good morning, good afternoon. Thanks for taking my call. Okay,

0:35:26.160 --> 0:35:28.920
<v Speaker 10>So I listened to Steyer his first thing is just

0:35:28.960 --> 0:35:32.800
<v Speaker 10>what you said. He wants to get rid of Prop thirteen.

0:35:33.200 --> 0:35:36.200
<v Speaker 10>And then I believe the second thing he said was

0:35:37.600 --> 0:35:41.440
<v Speaker 10>universal healthcare. He wants everyone on the same health plan

0:35:41.760 --> 0:35:44.680
<v Speaker 10>that they put us on. I want to know if

0:35:44.760 --> 0:35:47.000
<v Speaker 10>he and his family are going to be on the

0:35:47.040 --> 0:35:49.600
<v Speaker 10>same health plan that they put all of us on.

0:35:50.640 --> 0:35:51.720
<v Speaker 10>That's my question.

0:35:53.000 --> 0:35:56.440
<v Speaker 2>That's a very good question, because if government run health

0:35:56.600 --> 0:36:00.719
<v Speaker 2>in California goes as I expected to, none of us

0:36:00.760 --> 0:36:02.400
<v Speaker 2>are going to make it to sixty.

0:36:03.800 --> 0:36:06.439
<v Speaker 10>No, you're exactly right. Am I going to see them

0:36:06.760 --> 0:36:08.040
<v Speaker 10>in my emergency room?

0:36:08.239 --> 0:36:08.439
<v Speaker 9>Yeah?

0:36:08.480 --> 0:36:10.920
<v Speaker 10>I don't think so. So I want to know. And

0:36:10.960 --> 0:36:13.640
<v Speaker 10>a lot of them say it, you know, we all

0:36:13.680 --> 0:36:16.759
<v Speaker 10>need this one pay healthcare. We're all going to be

0:36:16.840 --> 0:36:18.520
<v Speaker 10>on it. We're all going to be good, take care

0:36:18.560 --> 0:36:22.560
<v Speaker 10>of all the legals and illegals. But nobody asks them,

0:36:22.880 --> 0:36:24.319
<v Speaker 10>are you going to be on the same one that

0:36:24.400 --> 0:36:27.279
<v Speaker 10>I'm on? That's what I want to know, and I

0:36:27.320 --> 0:36:28.000
<v Speaker 10>know the answer.

0:36:29.239 --> 0:36:33.440
<v Speaker 2>That's the whole beauty of having private health insurance. If

0:36:33.480 --> 0:36:36.000
<v Speaker 2>you make enough money and you have a good enough plan,

0:36:36.880 --> 0:36:40.560
<v Speaker 2>you can get out of many ailments. And let's face it,

0:36:41.120 --> 0:36:43.160
<v Speaker 2>we live in a world where we have access to

0:36:43.320 --> 0:36:47.040
<v Speaker 2>just about anything. And the point for me for getting rich,

0:36:47.120 --> 0:36:49.279
<v Speaker 2>if I ever get there, is so that I can

0:36:49.320 --> 0:36:52.200
<v Speaker 2>eat and drink whatever I want. Because if I can

0:36:52.280 --> 0:36:55.319
<v Speaker 2>eat and drink whatever I want, and you finally get

0:36:55.360 --> 0:36:57.600
<v Speaker 2>to a point where your body starts to fail, you,

0:36:57.960 --> 0:37:00.680
<v Speaker 2>well who cares. You can buy a liver from China,

0:37:00.760 --> 0:37:03.080
<v Speaker 2>and you can get one of those baboon hearts here too,

0:37:04.719 --> 0:37:07.080
<v Speaker 2>right right, And.

0:37:07.080 --> 0:37:09.280
<v Speaker 10>I pay a lot of money to have a ppo

0:37:09.760 --> 0:37:12.919
<v Speaker 10>so I can go when I want, see whomever I want.

0:37:13.400 --> 0:37:15.960
<v Speaker 10>And they said you couldn't even do that. It's going

0:37:16.040 --> 0:37:20.000
<v Speaker 10>to be all just like that. That saying goes knock knock,

0:37:20.000 --> 0:37:22.759
<v Speaker 10>who's there? It's the government. I'm here to help. No

0:37:23.360 --> 0:37:27.239
<v Speaker 10>anything the government touches seems to go dous.

0:37:27.560 --> 0:37:30.040
<v Speaker 1>So that all right, Thank you for the call. We

0:37:30.080 --> 0:37:30.839
<v Speaker 1>appreciate it.
