Todd, Welcome back to the Johnny Ken Show. 26 00:01:19,080 --> 00:01:19,520 Speaker 1: How are you. 27 00:01:20,400 --> 00:01:22,640 Speaker 3: I'm great, Ken. Thanks. Hey, I just took a road 28 00:01:22,680 --> 00:01:24,200 Speaker 3: trip and I just want you to know, you know, 29 00:01:24,520 --> 00:01:27,479 Speaker 3: being I just went to Salt Lake City and they're 30 00:01:27,480 --> 00:01:31,839 Speaker 3: building homes all across the southwest United States to take 31 00:01:32,280 --> 00:01:35,760 Speaker 3: all these Californians who are fleeing the state. So it's real. 32 00:01:36,200 --> 00:01:38,280 Speaker 3: People want out of California. 33 00:01:39,200 --> 00:01:42,760 Speaker 1: Yeah. How bad do you think the shoplifting, smash and 34 00:01:42,800 --> 00:01:46,120 Speaker 1: grab thing is, Because obviously, if we get stories every day, 35 00:01:46,160 --> 00:01:48,200 Speaker 1: but other elements of the media want us to believe, 36 00:01:48,480 --> 00:01:50,280 Speaker 1: you know, property climbs up a bit, but it's not 37 00:01:50,320 --> 00:01:50,880 Speaker 1: a big deal. 38 00:01:51,680 --> 00:01:54,400 Speaker 3: Well, I think when the leading institute is called the 39 00:01:54,440 --> 00:01:58,840 Speaker 3: Public Policy Institute of California, in fact, the person is 40 00:01:58,880 --> 00:02:02,680 Speaker 3: overseeing that think tank now is our former Supreme Court 41 00:02:03,200 --> 00:02:06,400 Speaker 3: Chief Justice. But they just came out with new numbers, Ken. 42 00:02:06,760 --> 00:02:11,160 Speaker 3: The commercial burglary rate in California has now reached its 43 00:02:11,280 --> 00:02:15,480 Speaker 3: highest level since two thousand and eight. So that's birds 44 00:02:15,520 --> 00:02:19,840 Speaker 3: smashing grabs and the robberies where they're using force is 45 00:02:19,880 --> 00:02:25,040 Speaker 3: the highest level since twenty seventeen. Commercial burglaries, right, everything 46 00:02:25,040 --> 00:02:29,560 Speaker 3: we've been talking about went up in fourteen of California's 47 00:02:29,639 --> 00:02:35,440 Speaker 3: largest counties between twenty nineteen and twenty twenty two. My county, 48 00:02:35,880 --> 00:02:41,200 Speaker 3: Orange County saw a fifty four percent jump in these crimes. 49 00:02:41,480 --> 00:02:45,520 Speaker 3: So don't tell me. Even though I'm one of the 50 00:02:45,600 --> 00:02:50,360 Speaker 3: hardest charging das in California that are still left doing 51 00:02:50,400 --> 00:02:53,840 Speaker 3: the job we were elected to do, it is still 52 00:02:54,160 --> 00:02:57,760 Speaker 3: going out to my county despite even our best efforts, 53 00:02:58,040 --> 00:03:00,400 Speaker 3: and we're throwing the book at these criminals. You know, 54 00:03:00,440 --> 00:03:03,639 Speaker 3: in the smash and grab, in the touch and jewelry exchange, 55 00:03:04,520 --> 00:03:08,160 Speaker 3: we are asking for life counts on three of those 56 00:03:08,320 --> 00:03:11,560 Speaker 3: individuals because of their strike priors. And you know in 57 00:03:11,760 --> 00:03:16,120 Speaker 3: La George Gascon doesn't believe in charging strike priors, so 58 00:03:16,760 --> 00:03:19,280 Speaker 3: you know a lot of these people can. In fact, 59 00:03:19,280 --> 00:03:23,000 Speaker 3: the vast majority are coming down here from Los Angeles. 60 00:03:23,760 --> 00:03:25,200 Speaker 1: Well, that's how I'm going to ask you, then, is 61 00:03:25,240 --> 00:03:27,480 Speaker 1: a lack of consequences? I mean, are they going to 62 00:03:27,520 --> 00:03:29,120 Speaker 1: find out that you're going to be tougher on them 63 00:03:29,120 --> 00:03:32,000 Speaker 1: and maybe this will tamp down since you are going 64 00:03:32,040 --> 00:03:34,600 Speaker 1: to throw the book at them, you know. 65 00:03:35,120 --> 00:03:38,600 Speaker 3: I mean, I think the public clearly understands that we're 66 00:03:38,800 --> 00:03:41,480 Speaker 3: we feel safer, and we are safer in Orange County. 67 00:03:41,760 --> 00:03:44,920 Speaker 3: But I'm telling you something, I don't think these criminals care. 68 00:03:45,360 --> 00:03:48,600 Speaker 3: I don't think they care about the consequences of going 69 00:03:48,600 --> 00:03:51,080 Speaker 3: to prison because they know that they're going to get 70 00:03:51,080 --> 00:03:54,640 Speaker 3: early released from Cavin Newsom and the Department of Corrections. 71 00:03:55,480 --> 00:03:57,920 Speaker 3: There's a bill now in the legislature. I don't know 72 00:03:57,960 --> 00:04:01,480 Speaker 3: if you followed it at pass both houses. Well, it's 73 00:04:01,480 --> 00:04:04,840 Speaker 3: actually eligible, you know the bills. Thank god the legislature 74 00:04:05,200 --> 00:04:07,400 Speaker 3: is out Friday, because they're going to continue to do 75 00:04:07,520 --> 00:04:11,520 Speaker 3: damage unless they're adjourned. This bill would say, if you 76 00:04:11,680 --> 00:04:15,760 Speaker 3: came here illegally and you went to state prison for 77 00:04:15,800 --> 00:04:19,800 Speaker 3: a serious crime, the Department of Corrections cannot cooperate with 78 00:04:19,880 --> 00:04:23,320 Speaker 3: ice to make sure you are deported. The La Times 79 00:04:23,320 --> 00:04:27,200 Speaker 3: had an editorial about that today, supporting the not being 80 00:04:27,240 --> 00:04:29,000 Speaker 3: able to deport convicted. 81 00:04:28,839 --> 00:04:30,640 Speaker 1: And that was a judge. That's a judge that would 82 00:04:30,839 --> 00:04:32,160 Speaker 1: the judge wrote that editorial. 83 00:04:32,200 --> 00:04:35,080 Speaker 3: Did you see that, Yeah, forward judge wrote that editorial. 84 00:04:35,400 --> 00:04:38,160 Speaker 3: So I guess My message to you is I am 85 00:04:38,200 --> 00:04:40,479 Speaker 3: going to throw the book at them. There we take 86 00:04:40,560 --> 00:04:43,280 Speaker 3: We have a take no prisoners man. We are hardcore 87 00:04:43,320 --> 00:04:46,960 Speaker 3: in Orange County. We are vertically prosecuting these cases. I 88 00:04:47,000 --> 00:04:49,120 Speaker 3: am doing everything I can to fight every day to 89 00:04:49,160 --> 00:04:52,360 Speaker 3: keep Orange County, continue to keep Orange County the safest 90 00:04:52,440 --> 00:04:55,039 Speaker 3: large county in California. But I'm telling you, I want 91 00:04:55,040 --> 00:04:58,680 Speaker 3: to make two points to you. One, it's the legislature 92 00:04:58,800 --> 00:05:02,360 Speaker 3: is making it impossible to keep California safe. Number two 93 00:05:03,400 --> 00:05:06,080 Speaker 3: in LA in particular, the leadership, if you will, and 94 00:05:06,240 --> 00:05:09,960 Speaker 3: quotes of the individuals there who are responsible, the mayor 95 00:05:09,960 --> 00:05:12,920 Speaker 3: of Los Angeles, the District Attorney of Los Angeles. They 96 00:05:12,960 --> 00:05:16,200 Speaker 3: have set a certain tone and tolerance for this kind 97 00:05:16,240 --> 00:05:19,400 Speaker 3: of illegal activity, and I think that's why people believe 98 00:05:19,560 --> 00:05:22,440 Speaker 3: they can do it. And then, lastly, the thing we're 99 00:05:22,440 --> 00:05:24,960 Speaker 3: not talking about, and I'm going to do a lot 100 00:05:25,000 --> 00:05:27,919 Speaker 3: of homework and present my case to you and others, 101 00:05:28,400 --> 00:05:31,360 Speaker 3: is Gavin Newsom not only is destroying California because of 102 00:05:31,400 --> 00:05:36,360 Speaker 3: this criminal justice reform policy or early release of prisoner's policy, 103 00:05:36,760 --> 00:05:41,200 Speaker 3: but he is now appointing so many judges who were 104 00:05:41,360 --> 00:05:45,919 Speaker 3: former public defenders. Those judges are now making us so 105 00:05:46,080 --> 00:05:50,520 Speaker 3: much less safe. No matter what my prosecutors are doing 106 00:05:50,560 --> 00:05:53,480 Speaker 3: in court, no one is talking about that yet. And 107 00:05:53,520 --> 00:05:56,359 Speaker 3: that is a dirty little secret that Gavin Newsom is 108 00:05:56,360 --> 00:05:59,679 Speaker 3: now perpetrating on California through the judicial system. 109 00:06:00,560 --> 00:06:02,960 Speaker 1: Something you mentioned a couple of minutes ago came up 110 00:06:02,960 --> 00:06:04,880 Speaker 1: in a story. We had that wild story last week. 111 00:06:04,920 --> 00:06:07,400 Speaker 1: You probably know about the Briha mall where that I 112 00:06:07,440 --> 00:06:08,960 Speaker 1: don't know how much you can talk about this as 113 00:06:08,960 --> 00:06:11,760 Speaker 1: far as prosecuting these people are concerned. But this is 114 00:06:11,760 --> 00:06:13,360 Speaker 1: the group that went in there to steal from a 115 00:06:13,440 --> 00:06:16,520 Speaker 1: Macy's and then ended up calling a ride share and 116 00:06:16,560 --> 00:06:17,680 Speaker 1: faking a heart. 117 00:06:17,360 --> 00:06:20,280 Speaker 3: There in the dentist's office. They went into a dentist's office, 118 00:06:20,400 --> 00:06:22,360 Speaker 3: one of the guys saying that he was having a 119 00:06:22,360 --> 00:06:23,000 Speaker 3: heart attack. 120 00:06:24,040 --> 00:06:27,960 Speaker 1: To get funny, but it's still a serious issue right well, 121 00:06:28,000 --> 00:06:28,960 Speaker 1: of course. 122 00:06:28,600 --> 00:06:32,280 Speaker 3: But you can see just how ludicrous this is. I mean, listen. 123 00:06:32,760 --> 00:06:36,600 Speaker 3: But good thing is in Orange County, California, the police 124 00:06:36,640 --> 00:06:40,400 Speaker 3: agencies know that me as district attorney, I'm going to 125 00:06:40,480 --> 00:06:43,679 Speaker 3: back them up. They can be hard charging going after 126 00:06:43,720 --> 00:06:47,760 Speaker 3: these people, taking them into custody. We're you know, charging them, 127 00:06:47,880 --> 00:06:51,080 Speaker 3: asking for increased bail. We are all in the same page. 128 00:06:51,160 --> 00:06:54,920 Speaker 3: The law enforcement agencies, the police departments, the sheriff's department, 129 00:06:55,480 --> 00:06:58,440 Speaker 3: are you know, really good Sheriff Don Barnes. We are 130 00:06:58,520 --> 00:07:02,240 Speaker 3: all on the same page making sure we're working effectively. 131 00:07:02,480 --> 00:07:05,080 Speaker 3: But again, if we go to court and we want 132 00:07:05,120 --> 00:07:08,200 Speaker 3: to throw the book at somebody, we still need judges. 133 00:07:08,480 --> 00:07:11,720 Speaker 3: And again, Ken, you know, people forget that judges are 134 00:07:11,800 --> 00:07:15,320 Speaker 3: elected every seven years. Our Superior Court judges have their 135 00:07:15,400 --> 00:07:18,600 Speaker 3: names on the ballot. We throw out Rose Bird decades 136 00:07:18,640 --> 00:07:22,360 Speaker 3: ago because you remember she was Supreme Court leading from 137 00:07:22,400 --> 00:07:25,480 Speaker 3: the bench rite no death penalty. We got rid of her, 138 00:07:25,760 --> 00:07:29,600 Speaker 3: Cruz Renoso and others. My point being is, I'm going 139 00:07:29,680 --> 00:07:33,160 Speaker 3: to announce that I'm going to start a slate of 140 00:07:33,320 --> 00:07:36,640 Speaker 3: judges in Orange County that the public can support, and 141 00:07:36,760 --> 00:07:39,880 Speaker 3: I'm going to point out to the judges that are 142 00:07:40,160 --> 00:07:44,040 Speaker 3: hurting our public safety when they run for reelection. It 143 00:07:44,080 --> 00:07:47,040 Speaker 3: is I cannot help it. I have to let the 144 00:07:47,080 --> 00:07:51,400 Speaker 3: public know when and who is helping us keep Orange 145 00:07:51,440 --> 00:07:56,760 Speaker 3: County and California safe. This state is honestly, it is 146 00:07:56,920 --> 00:08:00,640 Speaker 3: literally going down the tubes and people, I mean, I heard, 147 00:08:01,240 --> 00:08:03,960 Speaker 3: you know, the interviews earlier of the young Lady on 148 00:08:04,000 --> 00:08:07,640 Speaker 3: the subway. Who kind of feel safe doesn't feel safe? 149 00:08:07,920 --> 00:08:12,320 Speaker 3: That is unacceptable to me that people do not feel 150 00:08:12,360 --> 00:08:14,720 Speaker 3: safe anymore in their communities. 151 00:08:15,000 --> 00:08:16,480 Speaker 1: Well, Todd, before you go, I got to ask you 152 00:08:16,480 --> 00:08:18,800 Speaker 1: this because we have difficulty finding this out. When they 153 00:08:18,840 --> 00:08:21,800 Speaker 1: start arresting people in these latest smashing grab robberies, we 154 00:08:21,920 --> 00:08:24,160 Speaker 1: try to find out how many of them are repeat 155 00:08:24,200 --> 00:08:26,400 Speaker 1: offenders that just get pushed right through the system. Like 156 00:08:26,400 --> 00:08:28,440 Speaker 1: with no bail, they're out there again and they're out 157 00:08:28,440 --> 00:08:30,600 Speaker 1: there smashing and grabbing. Do you keep track of this 158 00:08:30,680 --> 00:08:31,240 Speaker 1: kind of stuff? 159 00:08:32,120 --> 00:08:35,200 Speaker 3: We absolutely do in my county. It's not hard to 160 00:08:35,280 --> 00:08:39,600 Speaker 3: do in La County because the court records are public 161 00:08:39,679 --> 00:08:42,560 Speaker 3: records and a journalist needs a dig deep to figure 162 00:08:42,600 --> 00:08:45,040 Speaker 3: that out. And I know they're working on that, but 163 00:08:45,200 --> 00:08:48,320 Speaker 3: let me just tell you. You can tell who has 164 00:08:48,440 --> 00:08:52,840 Speaker 3: prior criminal records. How we sell out our charging document. 165 00:08:53,200 --> 00:08:55,720 Speaker 3: So when we show that the person has prior conviction, 166 00:08:56,160 --> 00:08:58,599 Speaker 3: they've been to state prison, they get more time for that. 167 00:08:59,200 --> 00:09:02,800 Speaker 3: They are strikes in their past, they are eligible for 168 00:09:02,880 --> 00:09:06,720 Speaker 3: more time for that. So when we make our bail motions, 169 00:09:07,559 --> 00:09:10,560 Speaker 3: we're arguing those facts to the court to make sure 170 00:09:10,600 --> 00:09:13,839 Speaker 3: these people are kept in custody. It is so frustrating 171 00:09:13,880 --> 00:09:18,079 Speaker 3: to me when you see zero bail. Los Angeles now 172 00:09:18,120 --> 00:09:22,280 Speaker 3: has zero bail as a policy, thank goodness Orange County 173 00:09:22,480 --> 00:09:25,760 Speaker 3: does not have that. But we still are required to 174 00:09:25,800 --> 00:09:30,120 Speaker 3: go to court and argue, I mean faciferously, like we've 175 00:09:30,200 --> 00:09:33,720 Speaker 3: never had to argue before. And now we have so 176 00:09:33,880 --> 00:09:39,559 Speaker 3: many judicial officers appointed by Gavin Newsom who are still 177 00:09:39,640 --> 00:09:43,120 Speaker 3: acting as if they're public defenders defending criminals. They have 178 00:09:43,280 --> 00:09:48,400 Speaker 3: not transformed from their prior careers as defense attorneys to 179 00:09:48,480 --> 00:09:52,440 Speaker 3: being judges. They need to understand their elected officials and 180 00:09:52,520 --> 00:09:57,360 Speaker 3: their primary mission and charge is to protect the public, 181 00:09:57,760 --> 00:10:00,640 Speaker 3: not to get people off from criminals charges. 182 00:10:01,240 --> 00:10:03,160 Speaker 1: All right, Todd, always good to talk to you. Thanks 183 00:10:03,160 --> 00:10:04,720 Speaker 1: for coming on again. We got a lot of passion. 184 00:10:04,880 --> 00:10:05,559 Speaker 3: I appreciate it. 185 00:10:06,240 --> 00:10:09,280 Speaker 1: Orange County District Attorney Todd Spitzer not going to be 186 00:10:09,440 --> 00:10:12,000 Speaker 1: abolthough he says he's handcuffed by, of course, the rules 187 00:10:12,000 --> 00:10:13,920 Speaker 1: coming out of Sacramento, the laws, and of course now 188 00:10:13,960 --> 00:10:16,520 Speaker 1: the judges that he's mentioned, Gavin news From appointing a 189 00:10:16,520 --> 00:10:19,880 Speaker 1: whole bunch of judges, some of the public defenders. Anyway, 190 00:10:20,160 --> 00:10:22,120 Speaker 1: he came on to talk about the smashing grabs, the 191 00:10:22,160 --> 00:10:24,480 Speaker 1: retail theft. I want to point out that that Bray 192 00:10:24,520 --> 00:10:27,680 Speaker 1: a Mall story from last week. The three people that 193 00:10:27,760 --> 00:10:31,079 Speaker 1: were arrested Bray of course in Orange County, two from 194 00:10:31,240 --> 00:10:34,600 Speaker 1: LA one from Siam Valley. So we're exporting our criminals too, 195 00:10:34,640 --> 00:10:37,720 Speaker 1: thanks to George Gascone and the criminal justice system of 196 00:10:37,760 --> 00:10:40,400 Speaker 1: Los Angeles. More coming up on the Johnny Ken Show 197 00:10:40,480 --> 00:10:42,000 Speaker 1: k I AM six forty. 198 00:10:42,960 --> 00:10:46,280 Speaker 4: You're listening to John and Ken on demand from KFI 199 00:10:46,520 --> 00:10:47,480 Speaker 4: AM six forty. 200 00:10:49,080 --> 00:10:50,920 Speaker 1: John's got some time off. I'm here with you, Debora 201 00:10:50,960 --> 00:10:53,120 Speaker 1: Mark giving you of the news updates. We will be 202 00:10:53,280 --> 00:10:58,160 Speaker 1: at the Gavin Newsom maybe possibly could be running for 203 00:10:58,200 --> 00:11:01,640 Speaker 1: president desk after three thirty. They released a full interview 204 00:11:01,679 --> 00:11:05,960 Speaker 1: that he did with Meet the Press over the weekend. 205 00:11:06,040 --> 00:11:08,280 Speaker 1: We played a clip on Friday. There's one in there, 206 00:11:08,320 --> 00:11:10,160 Speaker 1: at least one clip in there. I want to play 207 00:11:10,840 --> 00:11:15,200 Speaker 1: dealing with how is governor he managed the COVID crisis 208 00:11:15,240 --> 00:11:18,480 Speaker 1: and how he now says, well, we probably in hindsight 209 00:11:18,480 --> 00:11:22,120 Speaker 1: would have done things differently. Good God. So we'll play that. 210 00:11:22,320 --> 00:11:25,600 Speaker 1: Coming up after the news at three thirty at that desk. 211 00:11:26,080 --> 00:11:29,840 Speaker 1: Related to Newsom comes this story back in twenty twenty 212 00:11:30,320 --> 00:11:34,360 Speaker 1: when George Floyd was murdered by those cops in Minneapolis. Well, 213 00:11:34,720 --> 00:11:38,040 Speaker 1: as we know, a lot of things happened around the country. 214 00:11:38,760 --> 00:11:43,240 Speaker 1: There was a viral movement to do something, particularly for 215 00:11:43,840 --> 00:11:47,439 Speaker 1: black Americans. What did we do? We capitalize the b 216 00:11:47,640 --> 00:11:50,040 Speaker 1: and the news story for black that's a small thing. 217 00:11:50,600 --> 00:11:55,320 Speaker 1: But Gavin Newsom, among other things, decided to appoint a 218 00:11:55,640 --> 00:12:00,280 Speaker 1: task force. The Reparations task Force was a point in 219 00:12:00,360 --> 00:12:05,559 Speaker 1: twenty twenty. Here we are three years later, and recently 220 00:12:05,880 --> 00:12:09,880 Speaker 1: they finally issued a report about what we could do 221 00:12:10,559 --> 00:12:13,199 Speaker 1: in order to make up for the evils and the 222 00:12:13,320 --> 00:12:17,120 Speaker 1: legacy of the horrors of slavery, not just in the 223 00:12:17,240 --> 00:12:21,040 Speaker 1: United States, but of course in California too, wherewhile slavery 224 00:12:21,240 --> 00:12:24,560 Speaker 1: was against law, apparently it seemed to have been tolerated. 225 00:12:25,480 --> 00:12:29,600 Speaker 1: But how relevant this is to most Californians? Apparently not many, 226 00:12:30,720 --> 00:12:34,240 Speaker 1: Because the task force finally came back with recommendations, and 227 00:12:34,280 --> 00:12:36,800 Speaker 1: the one that of course makes the headline is cash moneys. 228 00:12:37,640 --> 00:12:40,560 Speaker 1: They were very specific about it too. They came up 229 00:12:40,600 --> 00:12:47,600 Speaker 1: with numbers. They recommended thirteen thousand, six hundred and nineteen dollars. 230 00:12:48,880 --> 00:12:51,440 Speaker 1: This is like an actuary did this for each year 231 00:12:51,480 --> 00:12:55,160 Speaker 1: of residency in California, a figure that was derived by 232 00:12:55,160 --> 00:12:58,600 Speaker 1: comparing life expectancy between black, non Hispanic and white non 233 00:12:58,720 --> 00:13:02,840 Speaker 1: Hispanic Californians. They also wanted to compensate for a mass 234 00:13:02,840 --> 00:13:06,360 Speaker 1: incarceration the whole drug war thing. That was two thousand, 235 00:13:06,400 --> 00:13:08,320 Speaker 1: three hundred and fifty two dollars for each year of 236 00:13:08,320 --> 00:13:11,800 Speaker 1: residency in California during the War on Drugs from nineteen 237 00:13:11,840 --> 00:13:15,240 Speaker 1: seventy one to twenty twenty. I guess it didn't matter 238 00:13:15,280 --> 00:13:17,000 Speaker 1: whether or not you were actually jailed. You're just going 239 00:13:17,080 --> 00:13:18,559 Speaker 1: to get that if you were here and you're black. 240 00:13:18,840 --> 00:13:22,160 Speaker 1: A compensation of housing discrimination three thousand, three hundred and 241 00:13:22,200 --> 00:13:24,360 Speaker 1: seventy eight dollars for each year between nineteen thirty three 242 00:13:24,360 --> 00:13:29,079 Speaker 1: and nineteen seventy seven that a descendant resided in California. Now, 243 00:13:29,080 --> 00:13:30,880 Speaker 1: the one thing they did decide on is that you 244 00:13:30,920 --> 00:13:33,240 Speaker 1: probably have to prove that you are a descendant of 245 00:13:33,280 --> 00:13:36,760 Speaker 1: an actual slave. But what happened in this poll It 246 00:13:36,880 --> 00:13:40,040 Speaker 1: came out from the UC Berkeley Institute of Governmental Studies. 247 00:13:40,640 --> 00:13:45,800 Speaker 1: The people said, no, we're not handing out cash. Fifty 248 00:13:46,000 --> 00:13:51,120 Speaker 1: nine percent oppose cash payments. Only twenty eight percent supported 249 00:13:51,160 --> 00:13:54,040 Speaker 1: the idea. I want to remind you they didn't California 250 00:13:54,040 --> 00:13:56,560 Speaker 1: these days, especially the way the votes go, This is 251 00:13:56,600 --> 00:14:02,000 Speaker 1: pretty shocking because everybody's got to be feeling really just overwhelming, 252 00:14:02,080 --> 00:14:04,320 Speaker 1: particularly with what happened back in twenty twenty and the 253 00:14:04,360 --> 00:14:09,400 Speaker 1: great racial reckoning that people should be compensated for the 254 00:14:09,520 --> 00:14:15,960 Speaker 1: legacy of No. No, This was a resounding no. In fact, 255 00:14:16,200 --> 00:14:21,280 Speaker 1: it was true among most of the sub demographics. Among Democrats, 256 00:14:22,000 --> 00:14:26,120 Speaker 1: forty three percent in favor forty one percent against, which 257 00:14:26,160 --> 00:14:28,680 Speaker 1: is close when you consider her Democrats vote In California, 258 00:14:28,840 --> 00:14:34,080 Speaker 1: Republicans were ninety to five against the idea independence. They 259 00:14:34,120 --> 00:14:37,800 Speaker 1: sometimes make a difference sixty five percent against only twenty 260 00:14:37,840 --> 00:14:42,000 Speaker 1: two percent in favor. Black California voters were the only 261 00:14:42,040 --> 00:14:45,680 Speaker 1: ones that supported seventy six percent in favor. Sixteen percent 262 00:14:45,680 --> 00:14:49,400 Speaker 1: of post almost two thirds of whites, and sixty percent 263 00:14:49,640 --> 00:14:53,320 Speaker 1: of Latino and Asian voters said no. And the response 264 00:14:53,480 --> 00:14:56,440 Speaker 1: that we get is the usual, Well, it doesn't necessarily 265 00:14:56,480 --> 00:14:58,960 Speaker 1: have to be about paying out cash. That was not 266 00:14:59,040 --> 00:15:01,320 Speaker 1: all in the report. That's just the media grab that 267 00:15:01,440 --> 00:15:03,400 Speaker 1: and they ran with it. That is going to be 268 00:15:03,400 --> 00:15:07,160 Speaker 1: a cash handout. Well, that's the big headline because that's 269 00:15:07,200 --> 00:15:08,960 Speaker 1: probably the biggest part of this I mean, they were 270 00:15:09,040 --> 00:15:12,400 Speaker 1: talking about other ways to compensate, but when you come 271 00:15:12,480 --> 00:15:15,560 Speaker 1: up with these very specific numbers I mentioned, this task 272 00:15:15,600 --> 00:15:18,400 Speaker 1: force wanted to be very clear and specific about how 273 00:15:18,440 --> 00:15:21,040 Speaker 1: much money people would receive, and of course this could 274 00:15:21,080 --> 00:15:25,520 Speaker 1: run into the hundreds of thousands of dollars per person. Now, 275 00:15:25,640 --> 00:15:28,480 Speaker 1: one of the leaders in this movement is a state Senator, 276 00:15:28,520 --> 00:15:33,400 Speaker 1: Steve Bradford from Guardina. Here's what he said about the 277 00:15:33,440 --> 00:15:37,560 Speaker 1: results of the poll. It speaks to the miseducation of 278 00:15:37,600 --> 00:15:40,160 Speaker 1: most Americans when it comes to slavery and the impact 279 00:15:40,480 --> 00:15:42,800 Speaker 1: that it's had on this country and the impact it 280 00:15:42,840 --> 00:15:46,840 Speaker 1: still has on African Americans today. Again, the slap in 281 00:15:46,880 --> 00:15:50,040 Speaker 1: the face to you is that you're ignorant, right, he 282 00:15:50,200 --> 00:15:55,280 Speaker 1: used the term miseducation. Yeah, he's calling you ignorant in 283 00:15:55,320 --> 00:15:58,320 Speaker 1: his mind. You don't understand the damage this is done, 284 00:15:58,600 --> 00:16:02,280 Speaker 1: and you need to pay up now. The people who 285 00:16:02,320 --> 00:16:07,160 Speaker 1: said that they didn't want to pay out cash reparations 286 00:16:07,200 --> 00:16:10,880 Speaker 1: said most often, it's unfair to ask today's taxpayers to 287 00:16:10,920 --> 00:16:14,520 Speaker 1: pay for wrongs committed in the past. And I think 288 00:16:14,560 --> 00:16:16,920 Speaker 1: that's pretty clear to most people who think logically that 289 00:16:17,200 --> 00:16:20,280 Speaker 1: they had nothing to do with what happened hundreds of 290 00:16:20,400 --> 00:16:24,320 Speaker 1: years ago, and why should people today be held responsible. Also, 291 00:16:24,400 --> 00:16:27,920 Speaker 1: it's not fair to sinkle out one group for reparations 292 00:16:28,200 --> 00:16:30,600 Speaker 1: when other racial and religious groups have been wronged in 293 00:16:30,600 --> 00:16:34,160 Speaker 1: the past. That's what fifty three percent said. So according 294 00:16:34,200 --> 00:16:36,480 Speaker 1: to this poll, most people didn't say it's simply too 295 00:16:36,560 --> 00:16:40,040 Speaker 1: much money. They just had their own sort of logical 296 00:16:40,160 --> 00:16:44,000 Speaker 1: or moral reasons why we shouldn't pay out billions and 297 00:16:44,040 --> 00:16:46,880 Speaker 1: billions of dollars in reparations. So, of course, the way 298 00:16:46,920 --> 00:16:51,480 Speaker 1: the Times positioned this, this is a conundrum for the 299 00:16:51,520 --> 00:16:54,920 Speaker 1: Democrats in Gavin Newsom because it seems like they've made 300 00:16:54,960 --> 00:16:57,600 Speaker 1: a promise that there is going to be cash payouts 301 00:16:58,040 --> 00:17:02,160 Speaker 1: to black Californians and the voters don't like it, and 302 00:17:02,400 --> 00:17:05,320 Speaker 1: it's going really nowhere right now. In the legislature. They 303 00:17:05,400 --> 00:17:08,520 Speaker 1: kind of punted it. They finished up their budget back 304 00:17:08,520 --> 00:17:11,159 Speaker 1: in June and they didn't really deal with this. So 305 00:17:12,040 --> 00:17:16,880 Speaker 1: hopefully and probably this will quietly kind of just disappear, or, 306 00:17:17,280 --> 00:17:20,200 Speaker 1: like I've said several times before, they'll come up something 307 00:17:20,400 --> 00:17:24,160 Speaker 1: maybe free college tuition ideas, some sort of grants and incentives. 308 00:17:24,200 --> 00:17:26,760 Speaker 1: But I don't see the day where they're going to 309 00:17:26,760 --> 00:17:29,840 Speaker 1: be handing out billions of dollars in cash payments to 310 00:17:29,920 --> 00:17:34,040 Speaker 1: people in California. Even that is politically unacceptable to this 311 00:17:34,160 --> 00:17:39,119 Speaker 1: incredibly far left progressive electorate. John and Ken's show KFI 312 00:17:39,240 --> 00:17:43,480 Speaker 1: AM six forty We're live everywhere on the iHeartRadio app. 313 00:17:44,640 --> 00:17:48,000 Speaker 4: You're listening to John and Ken on demand from KFI 314 00:17:48,240 --> 00:17:49,200 Speaker 4: AM six forty. 315 00:17:52,200 --> 00:17:56,120 Speaker 1: Are you considering running for president in twenty twenty four 316 00:17:56,160 --> 00:17:57,000 Speaker 1: or twenty twenty eight? 317 00:17:57,040 --> 00:17:58,440 Speaker 5: Not even considerable, Not at all. 318 00:17:58,600 --> 00:18:01,600 Speaker 6: This election is choice about life and death. 319 00:18:01,720 --> 00:18:03,080 Speaker 1: We nen defeat trump Ism. 320 00:18:03,280 --> 00:18:06,240 Speaker 6: This is the most consequential. 321 00:18:05,320 --> 00:18:06,720 Speaker 1: Election they choose that. 322 00:18:07,080 --> 00:18:11,520 Speaker 6: As they sell fear around crime, they self come around 323 00:18:12,080 --> 00:18:15,720 Speaker 6: these perverse gun laws. What we've got right now is 324 00:18:15,760 --> 00:18:18,560 Speaker 6: not working and it's about to break. And look at 325 00:18:18,560 --> 00:18:24,000 Speaker 6: this sewage that is online that they amplify on these 326 00:18:24,119 --> 00:18:28,120 Speaker 6: networks and in social media to dehumanize people. This whole 327 00:18:28,160 --> 00:18:31,159 Speaker 6: damn border debate is made up. That's how extreme the 328 00:18:31,200 --> 00:18:33,720 Speaker 6: Republican Party is in the United States of America. It's 329 00:18:33,720 --> 00:18:36,080 Speaker 6: time to organize, guys, bottom up, not just top down. 330 00:18:36,119 --> 00:18:38,359 Speaker 6: Republicans have been organizing bottom up forever. 331 00:18:38,480 --> 00:18:39,400 Speaker 5: Where the hell are we. 332 00:18:39,480 --> 00:18:42,479 Speaker 6: As a party to capture the narrative? I Honestly, if 333 00:18:42,480 --> 00:18:45,400 Speaker 6: I were offering political advice, I'd tell him to pack 334 00:18:45,520 --> 00:18:46,800 Speaker 6: up and wait a few years. 335 00:18:46,840 --> 00:18:49,520 Speaker 1: I never trust politicians, so I get why you keep asking. 336 00:18:49,600 --> 00:18:51,879 Speaker 7: So when I see you in Iowa in twenty twenty three, I. 337 00:18:51,880 --> 00:18:52,960 Speaker 5: Will play this for you. 338 00:18:53,520 --> 00:18:56,400 Speaker 1: The answer South Carolina, I'm gonna where what else? 339 00:18:56,520 --> 00:19:00,359 Speaker 2: I now John and can present the Gavin Noush is 340 00:19:00,440 --> 00:19:06,639 Speaker 2: running for president? H yes, Gavin Newsom maybe sort of 341 00:19:06,720 --> 00:19:11,920 Speaker 2: running for president. Well, maybe Gavin Neussom not running for. 342 00:19:15,080 --> 00:19:17,679 Speaker 1: I don't know. It's still my opinion. And it's early 343 00:19:17,800 --> 00:19:20,359 Speaker 1: that that Biden is going to pack it up. Looking 344 00:19:20,400 --> 00:19:23,240 Speaker 1: at him on that trip he took to India then Vietnam, 345 00:19:23,920 --> 00:19:25,960 Speaker 1: he's exhausted. It doesn't have to do that often. He 346 00:19:26,000 --> 00:19:27,800 Speaker 1: just goes to Delaware and sits on the beach or 347 00:19:28,040 --> 00:19:31,680 Speaker 1: you know, campaigns from the basement of his home in Delaware. 348 00:19:31,720 --> 00:19:35,120 Speaker 1: But I think he's he's got his term. I think 349 00:19:35,119 --> 00:19:38,720 Speaker 1: he's gonna I don't know, possibly next year. Announced he's 350 00:19:38,720 --> 00:19:40,879 Speaker 1: not running, but we'll wait and see. That's why this 351 00:19:40,920 --> 00:19:43,960 Speaker 1: guy is waiting in the wings. Although Fox News is 352 00:19:44,080 --> 00:19:47,240 Speaker 1: running a story that Gaven Neussom may be getting cold 353 00:19:47,280 --> 00:19:51,320 Speaker 1: feet and debating Ron DeSantis. Not sure if that's real 354 00:19:51,400 --> 00:19:53,840 Speaker 1: or what that's about. Try to look into that, but 355 00:19:53,880 --> 00:19:57,920 Speaker 1: we're at the Gaven Neussom maybe possibly running for president desk. 356 00:19:58,119 --> 00:20:02,040 Speaker 1: He met his appearance on Meet the Press with while 357 00:20:02,119 --> 00:20:06,359 Speaker 1: the Knobslobbery Chuck Todd or was also called the tongue Bather. 358 00:20:07,000 --> 00:20:09,000 Speaker 1: Chuck Todd is the long anchor of Meet the Press 359 00:20:09,000 --> 00:20:12,040 Speaker 1: who did his last show, so he's done and dow 360 00:20:12,040 --> 00:20:16,320 Speaker 1: some like one of his last guests, and the cut 361 00:20:16,359 --> 00:20:18,439 Speaker 1: we're gonna pay attention to. He played a clip on 362 00:20:18,560 --> 00:20:23,360 Speaker 1: Friday dealing with running for president. This though, was about Yeah, 363 00:20:23,480 --> 00:20:26,080 Speaker 1: twenty twenty and twenty twenty one, and the man who 364 00:20:26,119 --> 00:20:28,359 Speaker 1: was in charge of the state of California joined the 365 00:20:28,400 --> 00:20:33,040 Speaker 1: COVID crisis. Now, if you remember, Gavin Newsom of course 366 00:20:33,040 --> 00:20:35,480 Speaker 1: signed a bunch of executive orders kept us in a 367 00:20:35,520 --> 00:20:40,639 Speaker 1: state of emergency for far too long. He also bought 368 00:20:41,480 --> 00:20:47,200 Speaker 1: millions of masks from some strange Chinese electric car making company. 369 00:20:47,359 --> 00:20:49,680 Speaker 1: Remember that whole thing. I still don't know where those 370 00:20:49,720 --> 00:20:53,400 Speaker 1: masks are. Just he spent all this money on protective 371 00:20:53,520 --> 00:20:56,399 Speaker 1: equipment and then it included a lot of masks, and 372 00:20:56,440 --> 00:20:58,600 Speaker 1: there wasn't a lot of vendors who could make masks quickly. 373 00:20:58,640 --> 00:21:02,240 Speaker 1: So he made it deal with some Chinese company to 374 00:21:02,320 --> 00:21:06,600 Speaker 1: spend a lot of money. So in this clip, apparently 375 00:21:06,720 --> 00:21:10,040 Speaker 1: Chuck Todd is asking Newsome and I have more detail 376 00:21:10,040 --> 00:21:11,679 Speaker 1: on it in a moment after we hear what's in 377 00:21:11,680 --> 00:21:14,880 Speaker 1: the Newsome clip about you know you were really big 378 00:21:14,920 --> 00:21:17,280 Speaker 1: on lockdowns. How do you feel about that now? 379 00:21:17,760 --> 00:21:20,240 Speaker 8: You think this country can handle another pandemic or do 380 00:21:20,240 --> 00:21:21,040 Speaker 8: you think it would break up? 381 00:21:21,080 --> 00:21:21,840 Speaker 5: I think we have to. 382 00:21:21,840 --> 00:21:25,280 Speaker 6: We're resilient country, so it wouldn't break us. But I'm 383 00:21:25,320 --> 00:21:27,680 Speaker 6: not convinced we've learned the lessons from the last one. 384 00:21:27,720 --> 00:21:30,280 Speaker 6: And I think science took a big hit. I think 385 00:21:30,400 --> 00:21:32,520 Speaker 6: health read the history books in nineteen eighteen. We're still 386 00:21:32,520 --> 00:21:33,200 Speaker 6: trying to figure out. 387 00:21:33,359 --> 00:21:33,560 Speaker 1: Yeah. 388 00:21:33,760 --> 00:21:36,720 Speaker 6: No, And but that's I mean, that's alarmed to bude people. 389 00:21:36,960 --> 00:21:37,640 Speaker 5: That's alarming. 390 00:21:37,680 --> 00:21:39,680 Speaker 6: It should be alarming all of us that all of 391 00:21:39,720 --> 00:21:43,560 Speaker 6: a sudden, health became partisan, and that's something we're going 392 00:21:43,640 --> 00:21:45,680 Speaker 6: to pay a big price. You're right going forward, but 393 00:21:45,720 --> 00:21:48,320 Speaker 6: it won't break us because we're markably resilient. 394 00:21:49,240 --> 00:21:51,520 Speaker 1: I mean, this was an idiot and I'll remember this 395 00:21:51,760 --> 00:21:55,640 Speaker 1: very clearly from twenty twenty who freaked out because there 396 00:21:55,720 --> 00:21:58,960 Speaker 1: was an aerial shot of people on the beach. I 397 00:21:58,960 --> 00:22:00,439 Speaker 1: think it was at Orange count He could have been 398 00:22:00,440 --> 00:22:02,840 Speaker 1: in La County. They were too close together. He was 399 00:22:02,880 --> 00:22:05,919 Speaker 1: freaking out. I remember all the they closed down the 400 00:22:05,960 --> 00:22:09,600 Speaker 1: beaches and the boardwalks and the strands and all that stuff. 401 00:22:09,640 --> 00:22:15,280 Speaker 1: Good lord, But apparently Todd went after him, saying, you've 402 00:22:15,440 --> 00:22:19,000 Speaker 1: found a way to allow the motion picture industry, in 403 00:22:19,040 --> 00:22:21,359 Speaker 1: the movie industry to get back to work, but you 404 00:22:21,400 --> 00:22:23,959 Speaker 1: didn't allow people to grieve together at funerals or are churches. 405 00:22:24,480 --> 00:22:27,760 Speaker 1: It's actually a good question from the shill, Chuck Todd. 406 00:22:28,200 --> 00:22:31,280 Speaker 1: This is the anger between the populace and the elites here. 407 00:22:31,320 --> 00:22:34,400 Speaker 1: You prioritize this industry, but you were tougher on those 408 00:22:34,440 --> 00:22:37,919 Speaker 1: who just wanted to go worship and knew some And 409 00:22:38,000 --> 00:22:39,679 Speaker 1: he loves this word. Well, I think there's a lot 410 00:22:39,680 --> 00:22:43,280 Speaker 1: of humility. We didn't know what we didn't know, and 411 00:22:43,320 --> 00:22:47,000 Speaker 1: it was hardly I It was we collectively, I think 412 00:22:47,040 --> 00:22:49,840 Speaker 1: all of us, in terms of our collective wisdom, we've evolved. 413 00:22:50,320 --> 00:22:51,760 Speaker 1: So what he's trying to do there is punt and 414 00:22:51,800 --> 00:22:55,840 Speaker 1: saying it wasn't just me. There were local health officials 415 00:22:56,000 --> 00:22:58,480 Speaker 1: around the state who thought the same way. But he 416 00:22:58,520 --> 00:23:01,000 Speaker 1: did do that. Remember, the movie industry was allowed to 417 00:23:01,040 --> 00:23:03,720 Speaker 1: continue on, but he went after they all went after 418 00:23:03,800 --> 00:23:07,119 Speaker 1: people who just wanted to get together at church and pray. 419 00:23:07,640 --> 00:23:12,320 Speaker 1: Todd said, so, think about what you ended up collectively prioritizing. 420 00:23:12,600 --> 00:23:16,680 Speaker 1: You prioritize an industry, one specific one, but didn't prioritize 421 00:23:16,680 --> 00:23:21,760 Speaker 1: ones whose maybe values you didn't connect with. I'll unravel that. 422 00:23:22,200 --> 00:23:24,600 Speaker 1: What Todd's saying was, you gave the movie people a 423 00:23:24,600 --> 00:23:27,600 Speaker 1: break because they're probably big donors and progressive lefts who 424 00:23:27,640 --> 00:23:30,600 Speaker 1: give lots of money to campaigns like yours. But you know, 425 00:23:30,640 --> 00:23:33,679 Speaker 1: when it comes to the church people probably not a 426 00:23:33,720 --> 00:23:36,480 Speaker 1: supportive of you and your policies. Yeah, you didn't really 427 00:23:36,480 --> 00:23:39,119 Speaker 1: care much to do anything for them. It was actually 428 00:23:39,119 --> 00:23:42,879 Speaker 1: a good question, and again a nuisome. All of us 429 00:23:42,920 --> 00:23:45,639 Speaker 1: went through a process, a process. I mean, there were 430 00:23:45,640 --> 00:23:48,400 Speaker 1: a few states that didn't go on aggressive lockdowns, including 431 00:23:48,440 --> 00:23:53,400 Speaker 1: Florida's Ron DeSantis. That's right. He acknowledge that the criticism 432 00:23:53,440 --> 00:23:56,280 Speaker 1: to be facing now of his pandemic approach is legitimate 433 00:23:56,320 --> 00:23:59,879 Speaker 1: in terms of reflection. Who talks like that, that's actual quote. 434 00:24:00,119 --> 00:24:03,159 Speaker 1: It's legitimate in terms of reflection, and I don't have 435 00:24:03,160 --> 00:24:04,919 Speaker 1: to mention that this is the guy that went to 436 00:24:04,960 --> 00:24:07,840 Speaker 1: the French laundry restaurant. Also at the beginning of the pandemic. 437 00:24:07,880 --> 00:24:10,719 Speaker 1: Remember December of November of twenty twenty. I think it 438 00:24:10,800 --> 00:24:13,520 Speaker 1: was when people were still freaking out because I couldn't 439 00:24:13,520 --> 00:24:15,680 Speaker 1: go anywhere or do anything. He went there to meet 440 00:24:15,720 --> 00:24:19,920 Speaker 1: with his friends for a birthday party without masks. Huge phony. 441 00:24:20,280 --> 00:24:22,760 Speaker 1: It's just three years later. People want to just put 442 00:24:22,800 --> 00:24:25,280 Speaker 1: the whole COVID thing behind. It was so annoying and 443 00:24:25,320 --> 00:24:30,200 Speaker 1: completely mismanaged. All right, Johnny Ken Show KFI AM six forty, 444 00:24:30,560 --> 00:24:33,200 Speaker 1: We're live everywhere. It's the iHeartRadio app. 445 00:24:34,160 --> 00:24:37,480 Speaker 4: You're listening to John and Ken on demand from KFI 446 00:24:37,720 --> 00:24:38,679 Speaker 4: AM six forty. 447 00:24:41,960 --> 00:24:45,040 Speaker 1: Joe Biden was in Alaska today on the twenty second 448 00:24:45,040 --> 00:24:48,359 Speaker 1: anniversary of the nine to eleven attacks, trying to wind 449 00:24:48,440 --> 00:24:53,119 Speaker 1: his way home from India and Vietnam. A long trip 450 00:24:53,160 --> 00:24:57,840 Speaker 1: and he's very tired anyway. Kamla Harris actually went to 451 00:24:57,880 --> 00:25:01,280 Speaker 1: Ground Zero in New York, appearing in place of the President, 452 00:25:02,160 --> 00:25:05,600 Speaker 1: something that we have been doing every year to commemorate 453 00:25:05,640 --> 00:25:09,119 Speaker 1: the attacks. But apparently that Biden decided to take this 454 00:25:09,280 --> 00:25:14,320 Speaker 1: trip instead we thought it's not exactly a word salad. 455 00:25:15,040 --> 00:25:17,959 Speaker 1: But she did appear on Face the Nation this weekend 456 00:25:18,040 --> 00:25:21,360 Speaker 1: again Chuck Todd and Meet the Press, Talk the newsom 457 00:25:22,320 --> 00:25:24,600 Speaker 1: a woman by the name of Margaret Brennan who hosts 458 00:25:24,680 --> 00:25:28,399 Speaker 1: Face the Nation that people watch that anyway, talk to 459 00:25:28,480 --> 00:25:31,119 Speaker 1: Kavala Harris and the clip we're going to play you 460 00:25:31,240 --> 00:25:33,800 Speaker 1: is really kind of funny. Like I said, not really 461 00:25:33,840 --> 00:25:37,760 Speaker 1: a word salad. But she doesn't really seem to understand 462 00:25:37,760 --> 00:25:40,760 Speaker 1: the question, which is very simple, although we're going to 463 00:25:40,800 --> 00:25:45,359 Speaker 1: play the whole clip here she's being asked, well, what 464 00:25:45,520 --> 00:25:48,920 Speaker 1: about the possibility that we'll have President Trump president again? 465 00:25:49,080 --> 00:25:49,560 Speaker 1: Here we go? 466 00:25:49,760 --> 00:25:53,639 Speaker 9: Are you taking the threat of a second Trump presidency 467 00:25:53,960 --> 00:25:54,840 Speaker 9: seriously enough? 468 00:25:57,320 --> 00:25:58,639 Speaker 7: I don't understand the question. 469 00:25:59,720 --> 00:26:03,040 Speaker 9: You are dismissive of some of the Republican criticism of 470 00:26:03,119 --> 00:26:07,640 Speaker 9: you and the president. When you look at current polling, 471 00:26:09,320 --> 00:26:12,520 Speaker 9: the front runner for a Republican nomination is the former president, 472 00:26:12,560 --> 00:26:13,560 Speaker 9: the forty fifth president. 473 00:26:14,880 --> 00:26:17,600 Speaker 7: We will win the election. You will win, We will 474 00:26:17,600 --> 00:26:21,040 Speaker 7: win re election. There is too much at stake, and 475 00:26:21,080 --> 00:26:24,879 Speaker 7: the American people know it, and you know that the 476 00:26:24,920 --> 00:26:27,520 Speaker 7: reality of it is that when you look at polling, 477 00:26:28,119 --> 00:26:31,280 Speaker 7: the vast majority of the American people support the fact 478 00:26:31,320 --> 00:26:33,760 Speaker 7: that we're bringing manufacturing. 479 00:26:33,160 --> 00:26:34,440 Speaker 1: Back to America. 480 00:26:34,480 --> 00:26:36,400 Speaker 7: They support the fact that we are capping the cost 481 00:26:36,400 --> 00:26:40,680 Speaker 7: of prescription medication. They support the idea that we are 482 00:26:40,760 --> 00:26:44,560 Speaker 7: talking upholding and fighting for the freedom of people to 483 00:26:44,600 --> 00:26:46,400 Speaker 7: make decisions about their own body. 484 00:26:46,080 --> 00:26:49,359 Speaker 9: Frustration about the economy. The approval ratings are low. I mean, 485 00:26:49,400 --> 00:26:52,919 Speaker 9: you know the polling data out there, but that is 486 00:26:52,960 --> 00:26:53,359 Speaker 9: my point. 487 00:26:53,400 --> 00:26:55,320 Speaker 7: When you look at the when you look at where 488 00:26:55,359 --> 00:26:58,680 Speaker 7: the American people are on a particular issue such as 489 00:26:59,640 --> 00:27:04,479 Speaker 7: bringing back manufacturing to America, record low unemployment, what we 490 00:27:04,520 --> 00:27:07,280 Speaker 7: are doing around prescription medication and capping the cost and 491 00:27:07,359 --> 00:27:11,159 Speaker 7: allowing Medicare to negotiate against the big drug companies, the 492 00:27:11,200 --> 00:27:12,600 Speaker 7: American people support it. 493 00:27:12,880 --> 00:27:12,960 Speaker 3: Ye. 494 00:27:13,080 --> 00:27:14,920 Speaker 7: People around My job are to be to let them 495 00:27:14,960 --> 00:27:16,040 Speaker 7: know who delivered it. 496 00:27:16,800 --> 00:27:19,520 Speaker 1: People are every day checking what's going on in the 497 00:27:19,560 --> 00:27:22,840 Speaker 1: world of prescription drugs and medicare. That's very important. People. 498 00:27:22,920 --> 00:27:25,600 Speaker 1: They're constantly on top of that. One good lord, she 499 00:27:25,800 --> 00:27:29,560 Speaker 1: is nothing but a machine that just talking points and 500 00:27:29,640 --> 00:27:32,560 Speaker 1: whatever these are the campaign talking points, Slip them in 501 00:27:32,760 --> 00:27:35,679 Speaker 1: wherever you can, even if they're boring and irrelevant to 502 00:27:35,800 --> 00:27:38,240 Speaker 1: most people. And I like the Dodge at the beginning. 503 00:27:38,400 --> 00:27:41,639 Speaker 1: I don't understand the question. It's pretty simple, and I 504 00:27:41,680 --> 00:27:43,400 Speaker 1: think there's a lot of people that feel this way. 505 00:27:43,800 --> 00:27:45,960 Speaker 1: They still can't believe that Trump could be the nominee 506 00:27:46,000 --> 00:27:49,639 Speaker 1: next year, all the indictments, everything that's going on.
