1
00:00:00,840 --> 00:00:03,400
Speaker 1: Can't I am six forty You're listening to the John

2
00:00:03,440 --> 00:00:07,400
Speaker 1: Cobel Podcast on the iHeartRadio app run from one until

3
00:00:07,400 --> 00:00:10,440
Speaker 1: four after four o'clock, John Cobelt's show on demand on

4
00:00:10,520 --> 00:00:13,800
Speaker 1: the iHeart app. Coming up next hour, we're going to

5
00:00:13,840 --> 00:00:17,919
Speaker 1: talk with Assemblyman Bill Sanley from Riverside is a Republican

6
00:00:18,160 --> 00:00:21,000
Speaker 1: and he wants to sound the alarm not to be

7
00:00:21,160 --> 00:00:27,960
Speaker 1: fooled by the Legislature over their claim that they're going

8
00:00:28,040 --> 00:00:32,720
Speaker 1: to do adjustments to Prop. Forty seven. The only way

9
00:00:32,760 --> 00:00:36,199
Speaker 1: to change forty seven is to get a referendum on

10
00:00:36,240 --> 00:00:38,519
Speaker 1: the ballot in November, which a lot of people are

11
00:00:38,560 --> 00:00:39,400
Speaker 1: working to get.

12
00:00:40,080 --> 00:00:42,000
Speaker 2: We're going to be having an update in a.

13
00:00:41,960 --> 00:00:44,800
Speaker 1: Matter of days as to how close they are with

14
00:00:44,840 --> 00:00:48,240
Speaker 1: the signatures. And we've discussed this from time to time,

15
00:00:48,240 --> 00:00:51,320
Speaker 1: but if you're not aware this major revision of Prop.

16
00:00:51,360 --> 00:00:53,960
Speaker 1: Forty seven, If they get enough signatures, we'll go on

17
00:00:54,000 --> 00:00:57,880
Speaker 1: the ballt in November, and it would turn theft into

18
00:00:57,880 --> 00:01:02,080
Speaker 1: a crime again. Third time you get caught stealing stuff

19
00:01:02,080 --> 00:01:04,760
Speaker 1: from a store end up being a felony and you

20
00:01:04,800 --> 00:01:08,119
Speaker 1: go to prison. And also it would turn drug use

21
00:01:08,200 --> 00:01:11,600
Speaker 1: drug possession into a crime again, but with an asterisk.

22
00:01:11,640 --> 00:01:14,560
Speaker 1: If you get caught, you can agree to go to

23
00:01:14,600 --> 00:01:18,039
Speaker 1: treatment and you will go to jail. See very humane,

24
00:01:18,120 --> 00:01:20,560
Speaker 1: very compassionate, the way it used to be. And the

25
00:01:20,600 --> 00:01:26,320
Speaker 1: third thing, it would have some real penalties for fentanyl possession,

26
00:01:26,400 --> 00:01:30,320
Speaker 1: especially fentyl sales, and that if they catch you selling,

27
00:01:30,840 --> 00:01:36,679
Speaker 1: they'll warn you and eventually you could go to prison

28
00:01:36,880 --> 00:01:40,320
Speaker 1: for killing people with your fentanyl sales. But we'll talk

29
00:01:40,360 --> 00:01:44,480
Speaker 1: all about that later on. The legislature is trying to

30
00:01:44,520 --> 00:01:49,840
Speaker 1: pre empt the vote by claiming they have a bill

31
00:01:50,600 --> 00:01:55,320
Speaker 1: that's going to correct matters, except they can't. The legislature

32
00:01:55,440 --> 00:01:58,680
Speaker 1: can't correct Prop forty seven, So it's a lie right

33
00:01:58,680 --> 00:02:01,600
Speaker 1: from the start. There is no piece of legislation or

34
00:02:01,640 --> 00:02:04,560
Speaker 1: no referendum that has been filled with more lies from

35
00:02:04,600 --> 00:02:07,080
Speaker 1: moment one, the Prop forty seven and.

36
00:02:09,560 --> 00:02:10,280
Speaker 2: It's continuing.

37
00:02:10,320 --> 00:02:12,200
Speaker 1: We'll talk a bill of saley about it coming up

38
00:02:12,720 --> 00:02:15,480
Speaker 1: in about an hour, all.

39
00:02:15,480 --> 00:02:16,640
Speaker 2: Right, tomorrow.

40
00:02:16,639 --> 00:02:19,360
Speaker 1: I think there's some kind of big inflation number coming

41
00:02:20,080 --> 00:02:24,000
Speaker 1: and everybody's wondering what it's going to show, because I

42
00:02:24,040 --> 00:02:27,519
Speaker 1: tell you, I listen to business channels quite a bit,

43
00:02:28,440 --> 00:02:35,680
Speaker 1: and trust me, nobody knows anything. Absolutely nobody knows anything.

44
00:02:35,720 --> 00:02:39,920
Speaker 1: The phrases I hear every morning is higher than expected,

45
00:02:40,480 --> 00:02:44,880
Speaker 1: lower than expected, faster than expected, slower than expected.

46
00:02:46,639 --> 00:02:50,480
Speaker 2: Never meets expectations, not unemployment.

47
00:02:49,919 --> 00:02:54,920
Speaker 1: Numbers, not housing numbers, not inflation numbers, not the economy expanding,

48
00:02:55,000 --> 00:02:59,000
Speaker 1: or nothing ever meets expectations. All the experts that are

49
00:02:59,040 --> 00:03:02,720
Speaker 1: constantly filling the air with their gas, and all the

50
00:03:03,000 --> 00:03:06,080
Speaker 1: Wall Street experts that are recommending to buy this or

51
00:03:06,120 --> 00:03:09,880
Speaker 1: sell that they don't know, they don't know, crap. Every

52
00:03:09,960 --> 00:03:14,480
Speaker 1: day it's the same thing. It's it's hysterical. So now

53
00:03:14,520 --> 00:03:17,320
Speaker 1: it's the inflation tomorrow going to be more or less

54
00:03:17,320 --> 00:03:21,959
Speaker 1: than expected. I'll tell you what, You're probably going to

55
00:03:22,040 --> 00:03:27,040
Speaker 1: get a big increase because gas prices are going crazy,

56
00:03:27,760 --> 00:03:35,440
Speaker 1: especially in California. And another very naive writer for the

57
00:03:35,680 --> 00:03:40,920
Speaker 1: Elsie Gunder Times is Karen Garcia. And Karen Garcia manages

58
00:03:41,000 --> 00:03:43,480
Speaker 1: to write a page and a half story on gas

59
00:03:43,520 --> 00:03:49,240
Speaker 1: prices being exceptionally high in California without writing one word

60
00:03:49,280 --> 00:03:55,640
Speaker 1: as to why California has ridiculously high prices. She writes

61
00:03:55,680 --> 00:04:00,400
Speaker 1: that California prices were averaging five point thirty five gallon

62
00:04:00,560 --> 00:04:04,440
Speaker 1: Monday versus a national average of three point fifty nine.

63
00:04:05,920 --> 00:04:08,120
Speaker 2: Now, I would think if you're gonna open.

64
00:04:08,320 --> 00:04:10,600
Speaker 1: If you're going to open with that statistic, aren't you

65
00:04:10,640 --> 00:04:16,400
Speaker 1: gonna explain why? Because her first line is experiencing sticker

66
00:04:16,480 --> 00:04:21,120
Speaker 1: shock at the pump. Gas prices throughout California are soaring

67
00:04:21,640 --> 00:04:25,440
Speaker 1: in comparison to the national average five thirty five to

68
00:04:25,480 --> 00:04:30,600
Speaker 1: three fifty nine. Well, if they're soaring, I'm a reader.

69
00:04:31,279 --> 00:04:37,840
Speaker 1: Why Karen Garcia are they soaring? Why three fifty nine

70
00:04:39,480 --> 00:04:40,599
Speaker 1: to five point thirty five?

71
00:04:41,880 --> 00:04:44,960
Speaker 2: Humm?

72
00:04:45,360 --> 00:04:45,440
Speaker 3: No.

73
00:04:45,920 --> 00:04:48,159
Speaker 1: What she does is she tells us that in La

74
00:04:48,720 --> 00:04:51,200
Speaker 1: the price of gas is three pennies less than the

75
00:04:51,240 --> 00:04:51,919
Speaker 1: rest of the state.

76
00:04:51,960 --> 00:04:52,920
Speaker 2: It's five point thirty two.

77
00:04:53,520 --> 00:04:55,680
Speaker 1: But that's up seventeen cents from last week and thirty

78
00:04:55,720 --> 00:04:56,760
Speaker 1: nine cents from last month.

79
00:04:56,839 --> 00:05:00,159
Speaker 2: Why doesn't sane?

80
00:05:00,680 --> 00:05:03,680
Speaker 1: Okay, gas prices are growing up across the country, but

81
00:05:03,800 --> 00:05:08,920
Speaker 1: not nearly as fast as in California. Why Aaron Garcia

82
00:05:09,080 --> 00:05:13,240
Speaker 1: will not say, uh.

83
00:05:12,680 --> 00:05:13,600
Speaker 2: Well, here there's something.

84
00:05:13,640 --> 00:05:17,400
Speaker 1: Maybe a tight oil market due to attacks on commercial

85
00:05:17,400 --> 00:05:22,680
Speaker 1: ships in the Red Sea will keep fuel prices above average.

86
00:05:23,560 --> 00:05:26,320
Speaker 1: But why are they almost two bucks higher in California?

87
00:05:26,800 --> 00:05:31,279
Speaker 1: Doesn't say, And then she says, well, after saying that

88
00:05:32,960 --> 00:05:35,520
Speaker 1: oil markets tight because of the attacks in the Red Sea,

89
00:05:35,600 --> 00:05:39,120
Speaker 1: then she says, well, the attacks on the ships in

90
00:05:39,160 --> 00:05:43,919
Speaker 1: the Red Sea haven't harmed oil production yet. Oh, I

91
00:05:43,920 --> 00:05:47,200
Speaker 1: guess that's not a reason. Oh, another factor is the

92
00:05:47,240 --> 00:05:49,719
Speaker 1: war between Russia and Ukraine. What's been going on for

93
00:05:49,760 --> 00:05:56,719
Speaker 1: two months. But then she quotes somebody saying that, well,

94
00:05:56,760 --> 00:06:01,520
Speaker 1: actually those concerns have abated some somewhat for now. Oh okay,

95
00:06:02,160 --> 00:06:04,640
Speaker 1: so hey, maybe it's the attacks in the Red Sea. Well, no,

96
00:06:04,760 --> 00:06:07,640
Speaker 1: I guess it isn't. Maybe it's the Russian Ukraine more. No,

97
00:06:07,720 --> 00:06:11,760
Speaker 1: I guess it isn't. So now I'm one, two, three, four, five, six, seven,

98
00:06:11,839 --> 00:06:15,400
Speaker 1: eight paragraphs in. I still don't know why the gas

99
00:06:15,440 --> 00:06:17,320
Speaker 1: is a dollar any more here than anywhere else in

100
00:06:17,360 --> 00:06:17,839
Speaker 1: the country.

101
00:06:18,120 --> 00:06:20,120
Speaker 2: I don't even know why it's so high or in

102
00:06:20,160 --> 00:06:21,120
Speaker 2: the rest of the country.

103
00:06:23,080 --> 00:06:26,080
Speaker 1: Then she tells me historically, gasoline prices rise in the

104
00:06:26,080 --> 00:06:27,480
Speaker 1: spring and peaking late summer.

105
00:06:27,839 --> 00:06:30,040
Speaker 2: Blah blah blah blah. Yeah, I know, we all live here.

106
00:06:30,080 --> 00:06:33,480
Speaker 1: We know that California prices are affected by the shift

107
00:06:33,520 --> 00:06:38,000
Speaker 1: to a different fube blend in warmer weather. Yes, we

108
00:06:38,120 --> 00:06:43,240
Speaker 1: know that shouldn't be it's not doesn't account for a

109
00:06:43,279 --> 00:06:48,200
Speaker 1: dollar eighty though. In fact, I'm looking at the Triple

110
00:06:48,240 --> 00:06:52,719
Speaker 1: A has a gas price average website, and in Colorado

111
00:06:52,760 --> 00:06:56,400
Speaker 1: the price is three oh six. So we are two

112
00:06:56,520 --> 00:07:05,000
Speaker 1: dollars and uh cents higher in California than Colorado. And

113
00:07:05,040 --> 00:07:07,960
Speaker 1: then I'm looking at one, two, three, six, seven, eight, nine,

114
00:07:08,160 --> 00:07:11,440
Speaker 1: ten ten states that are at three twenty five.

115
00:07:11,280 --> 00:07:14,120
Speaker 2: Or less, and then.

116
00:07:15,000 --> 00:07:21,560
Speaker 1: Another ten states that are at three thirty five or less. Oh,

117
00:07:21,600 --> 00:07:24,440
Speaker 1: but that's not in Karen Garcia's story. It looks like

118
00:07:24,520 --> 00:07:26,480
Speaker 1: we've we've run out of story here.

119
00:07:26,560 --> 00:07:26,960
Speaker 2: That's it.

120
00:07:28,440 --> 00:07:31,200
Speaker 1: Do you want to read her bio here? Karen Garcia

121
00:07:31,240 --> 00:07:35,800
Speaker 1: is a reporter on the fast Break Desk, a team

122
00:07:35,840 --> 00:07:38,480
Speaker 1: that has a pulse on breaking news at the LA Times.

123
00:07:40,560 --> 00:07:45,080
Speaker 2: Oh, I think the patient died. There's no pulse here.

124
00:07:45,600 --> 00:07:45,960
Speaker 2: There's not.

125
00:07:46,240 --> 00:07:49,640
Speaker 1: There's not one word explaining why we're we're a buck

126
00:07:49,640 --> 00:07:54,000
Speaker 1: eighty higher. Not one word fast break desk around the pulse.

127
00:07:54,200 --> 00:07:56,400
Speaker 1: She was used to be a reporter on the Utility

128
00:07:56,480 --> 00:07:59,960
Speaker 1: Journalism team, which focused on service journalism. Well, it was

129
00:08:00,120 --> 00:08:03,160
Speaker 1: no service here. Her previous reporting is for the San

130
00:08:03,280 --> 00:08:09,400
Speaker 1: Louis Obispo New Times and KCBX KCBX Central Coast Public Radio.

131
00:08:09,760 --> 00:08:13,640
Speaker 1: I remember years ago the LA Times. These were people

132
00:08:13,640 --> 00:08:15,560
Speaker 1: who came from the New York Times, in the Wall

133
00:08:15,600 --> 00:08:19,160
Speaker 1: Street Journal and Time Magazine, And now we have Central

134
00:08:19,200 --> 00:08:22,520
Speaker 1: Coast Public Radio and the San Luis Obispo Times and

135
00:08:22,960 --> 00:08:26,840
Speaker 1: the whole story about gas prices. Yeah, she didn't include

136
00:08:26,880 --> 00:08:29,720
Speaker 1: Newsom's reason. Newsom's reason is, of course, the oil companies

137
00:08:29,720 --> 00:08:34,679
Speaker 1: are screwing us, right, But then you'd have to answer

138
00:08:34,720 --> 00:08:39,240
Speaker 1: why Newsom thinks we're getting screwed by the oil companies here,

139
00:08:39,320 --> 00:08:42,079
Speaker 1: but they don't screw anybody in the other forty nine states.

140
00:08:42,320 --> 00:08:45,160
Speaker 1: How come the prices are much lower in forty nine

141
00:08:45,200 --> 00:08:47,800
Speaker 1: other states. Why won't don't they go after the people

142
00:08:47,840 --> 00:08:50,880
Speaker 1: of Colorado? Why won't the oil companies screw over the

143
00:08:50,920 --> 00:08:51,960
Speaker 1: people in Colorado?

144
00:08:52,240 --> 00:08:56,200
Speaker 2: Why?

145
00:08:56,240 --> 00:09:03,320
Speaker 1: But nobody's nothing gets anymore. We have to do this ourselves.

146
00:09:03,920 --> 00:09:07,400
Speaker 1: I can't find stories on why the gas is a

147
00:09:07,440 --> 00:09:09,959
Speaker 1: dollar eighty more. You could go look U up yourself,

148
00:09:09,960 --> 00:09:11,680
Speaker 1: go Google or whatever it is you do. You're not

149
00:09:11,679 --> 00:09:14,640
Speaker 1: gonna find it. You're gonna you gotta go to the

150
00:09:14,640 --> 00:09:16,920
Speaker 1: Triple A and you can see that it's true. It's

151
00:09:17,160 --> 00:09:19,600
Speaker 1: we're two dollars and thirty cents higher than Colorado, a

152
00:09:19,640 --> 00:09:22,840
Speaker 1: dollar eighty higher than the country, and nobody will tell

153
00:09:22,920 --> 00:09:27,160
Speaker 1: us what. Well, gee, I think about two thirds of

154
00:09:27,200 --> 00:09:32,680
Speaker 1: the trouble is taxes. Yes, that's right, it's taxes, No

155
00:09:32,800 --> 00:09:34,960
Speaker 1: wonder they will put that in the ally time story.

156
00:09:35,200 --> 00:09:39,000
Speaker 1: It's taxes two thirds of the problem.

157
00:09:39,200 --> 00:09:42,560
Speaker 2: The other third I don't know. More coming up.

158
00:09:43,320 --> 00:09:47,640
Speaker 3: You're listening to John Cobelt on demand from KFI AM

159
00:09:47,679 --> 00:09:48,240
Speaker 3: six forty.

160
00:09:49,760 --> 00:09:52,760
Speaker 1: Well, I, you know, during the commercial breaks, I go

161
00:09:52,800 --> 00:09:56,960
Speaker 1: through new sites to see if there's anything breaking, and uh,

162
00:09:57,480 --> 00:09:58,600
Speaker 1: I couldn't believe this one.

163
00:09:59,000 --> 00:10:00,000
Speaker 2: I'm gonna talk about it.

164
00:10:00,000 --> 00:10:01,960
Speaker 1: We're going to talk about it after two thirty, after

165
00:10:01,960 --> 00:10:06,360
Speaker 1: Heather's news, because I want to get all the details here.

166
00:10:06,400 --> 00:10:08,720
Speaker 1: But here's the headline out of the El Segunda Times.

167
00:10:09,000 --> 00:10:15,480
Speaker 1: California has failed to monitor homeless spending, according to an audit.

168
00:10:16,920 --> 00:10:21,160
Speaker 1: This was the California States Auditor's Office. And the headline

169
00:10:21,280 --> 00:10:27,480
Speaker 1: is they have no idea what the billions of dollars

170
00:10:27,559 --> 00:10:31,040
Speaker 1: has been spent on and whether it worked.

171
00:10:32,559 --> 00:10:34,680
Speaker 2: How about that? Huh?

172
00:10:35,080 --> 00:10:38,680
Speaker 1: Questions about whether billions of dollars meant to thwart the

173
00:10:38,720 --> 00:10:44,560
Speaker 1: homeless crisis has been worth it? Billions of dollars and

174
00:10:44,600 --> 00:10:47,840
Speaker 1: the ninnies in this state just voted to give Gavin

175
00:10:47,920 --> 00:10:51,720
Speaker 1: Newsom six billion more. We're going to borrow six billion

176
00:10:51,800 --> 00:10:54,840
Speaker 1: more barely one. If this report had come out before

177
00:10:55,200 --> 00:10:58,240
Speaker 1: election day a month ago, it probably would have lost.

178
00:11:00,480 --> 00:11:04,199
Speaker 1: So that's the California State auditor. They've spent twenty billion

179
00:11:04,280 --> 00:11:07,240
Speaker 1: dollars over the past five years and nobody knows.

180
00:11:07,120 --> 00:11:08,080
Speaker 2: If it's effective or not.

181
00:11:09,000 --> 00:11:13,720
Speaker 1: Okay, no problem there, we'll talk about that after two thirty.

182
00:11:14,840 --> 00:11:19,800
Speaker 1: We were just discussing the absurd gas price situation in

183
00:11:19,840 --> 00:11:22,360
Speaker 1: the state where it's now what did I say, five

184
00:11:22,360 --> 00:11:25,439
Speaker 1: point thirty five a gallon, and the rest of the

185
00:11:25,520 --> 00:11:28,360
Speaker 1: nation's at three point fifty nine and Colorado's at three

186
00:11:28,360 --> 00:11:28,920
Speaker 1: oh six.

187
00:11:30,200 --> 00:11:36,199
Speaker 2: And now that is affecting just California.

188
00:11:37,080 --> 00:11:39,400
Speaker 1: No other state is anywhere near California when it comes

189
00:11:39,440 --> 00:11:44,240
Speaker 1: to gas prices, and it's the taxes, but the price

190
00:11:44,280 --> 00:11:47,600
Speaker 1: of everything else. Yesterday we talked a little bit about

191
00:11:47,600 --> 00:11:50,120
Speaker 1: this because the Wall Street Journal had done an analysis

192
00:11:50,120 --> 00:11:54,360
Speaker 1: of the price increases over the last five years. And

193
00:11:54,440 --> 00:11:58,439
Speaker 1: believe me, it's going to be inflation and immigration. That's

194
00:11:58,520 --> 00:12:02,120
Speaker 1: what's going to decide the election. If you don't hear

195
00:12:02,760 --> 00:12:08,160
Speaker 1: your guy talking about inflation or immigration, and then they're

196
00:12:08,240 --> 00:12:12,000
Speaker 1: trying they're trying to divert from what matters.

197
00:12:12,240 --> 00:12:14,640
Speaker 2: This is what matters in a normal person's life.

198
00:12:17,120 --> 00:12:21,280
Speaker 1: Now, I think I told you yesterday that the prices

199
00:12:21,280 --> 00:12:25,280
Speaker 1: for hundreds of grocery items have increased more than fifty

200
00:12:25,400 --> 00:12:32,360
Speaker 1: percent since twenty nineteen. This study found that the price

201
00:12:32,400 --> 00:12:38,520
Speaker 1: of eggs, chicken, chips, chocolate, soda, sports drinks, and crackers

202
00:12:38,679 --> 00:12:43,000
Speaker 1: went up forty percent. And what they did is they

203
00:12:43,040 --> 00:12:48,200
Speaker 1: took a selection of the most commonly purchased items that

204
00:12:48,280 --> 00:12:50,520
Speaker 1: in twenty nineteen would cost you one hundred dollars.

205
00:12:51,679 --> 00:12:52,760
Speaker 2: So here here it is.

206
00:12:52,520 --> 00:12:57,080
Speaker 1: This is this is a imaginary shopping bag filled with

207
00:12:57,120 --> 00:13:01,079
Speaker 1: the things people by the most fruit, vegetable, milk, flour,

208
00:13:01,600 --> 00:13:08,960
Speaker 1: just soap, frozen meals, toilet paper. It costs now one

209
00:13:09,040 --> 00:13:13,320
Speaker 1: hundred and thirty six dollars and fifty cents. Five years

210
00:13:13,320 --> 00:13:16,040
Speaker 1: ago it would cost one hundred dollars. So if if

211
00:13:16,080 --> 00:13:18,280
Speaker 1: you bought the same amount this year as you did

212
00:13:18,280 --> 00:13:21,520
Speaker 1: five years ago, you'd have to find a way to

213
00:13:21,520 --> 00:13:24,360
Speaker 1: give back thirty seven dollars worth of goods if all

214
00:13:24,360 --> 00:13:26,760
Speaker 1: you had was one hundred bucks budgeted, right, if your

215
00:13:26,800 --> 00:13:31,040
Speaker 1: budgeted one hundred bucks, you'd be thirty seven dollars over budget,

216
00:13:31,440 --> 00:13:35,080
Speaker 1: and you'd have to give that that much in terms

217
00:13:35,160 --> 00:13:41,120
Speaker 1: of food and goods. So, in general, according to the

218
00:13:41,160 --> 00:13:45,600
Speaker 1: Wall Street Journal, depending on the food categories, it costs

219
00:13:45,600 --> 00:13:48,320
Speaker 1: thirty six to fifty percent more than five years ago,

220
00:13:48,440 --> 00:13:53,160
Speaker 1: thirty six to fifty percent more. So when you hear tomorrow,

221
00:13:53,200 --> 00:13:56,760
Speaker 1: they'll say, oh, yeah, inflation rates at three point four percent.

222
00:13:56,800 --> 00:14:00,360
Speaker 1: But you know that's actually death or the inflation rates prize.

223
00:14:00,400 --> 00:14:01,600
Speaker 1: It's only a three point.

224
00:14:01,360 --> 00:14:04,200
Speaker 2: Two No no, no, no, no, no no.

225
00:14:05,520 --> 00:14:09,959
Speaker 1: The inflation is thirty six to fifty percent higher than

226
00:14:10,000 --> 00:14:13,000
Speaker 1: twenty nineteen, which was the last normal year in America.

227
00:14:13,960 --> 00:14:19,480
Speaker 1: Nothing has made sense since twenty nineteen. Here's more they found.

228
00:14:20,800 --> 00:14:25,920
Speaker 1: Did you hear the report that jobs job market exploded

229
00:14:26,000 --> 00:14:30,600
Speaker 1: three hundred thousand new jobs. Right, economy is booming great.

230
00:14:30,680 --> 00:14:33,200
Speaker 1: Why aren't people happy? Inflation is low?

231
00:14:33,280 --> 00:14:33,560
Speaker 2: It's not.

232
00:14:34,440 --> 00:14:38,920
Speaker 1: It's only three percent about fifty it's three oh jobs,

233
00:14:38,920 --> 00:14:40,320
Speaker 1: three hundred thousand more jobs.

234
00:14:40,480 --> 00:14:41,440
Speaker 2: Economy is expended.

235
00:14:41,520 --> 00:14:46,080
Speaker 1: Well, no, do you know the number of full time

236
00:14:46,120 --> 00:14:52,440
Speaker 1: workers this past month fell by six thousand people. All

237
00:14:52,560 --> 00:14:57,240
Speaker 1: the job creation were part time jobs. Full time jobs

238
00:14:57,360 --> 00:15:03,160
Speaker 1: dropped by six thousand, part time part timers increased by

239
00:15:03,240 --> 00:15:04,200
Speaker 1: six hundred and.

240
00:15:04,160 --> 00:15:06,880
Speaker 2: Ninety one thousand.

241
00:15:08,000 --> 00:15:13,440
Speaker 1: Multiple job holders rose by two hundred and seventeen thousand people.

242
00:15:14,440 --> 00:15:17,600
Speaker 1: There's two hundred and seventeen thousand more people last month

243
00:15:17,920 --> 00:15:21,560
Speaker 1: take on a second or third job. Five percent of

244
00:15:21,560 --> 00:15:26,440
Speaker 1: the employment level now is are multiple job holders. Full

245
00:15:26,480 --> 00:15:29,320
Speaker 1: Time employment is actually lower today than it was a

246
00:15:29,400 --> 00:15:34,920
Speaker 1: year ago. All the job creation, all of it, the

247
00:15:35,000 --> 00:15:40,480
Speaker 1: net job creation part time because a lot of Americans

248
00:15:40,480 --> 00:15:43,200
Speaker 1: have been laid off and replaced one full time job

249
00:15:43,240 --> 00:15:46,160
Speaker 1: with two or three part time ones. People are also

250
00:15:46,280 --> 00:15:49,640
Speaker 1: picking up additional jobs to make ends meet because food

251
00:15:49,680 --> 00:15:54,640
Speaker 1: has gone up thirty six to fifty percent. You really

252
00:15:54,680 --> 00:15:57,320
Speaker 1: have to look around to find this stuff. You don't

253
00:15:57,320 --> 00:15:58,840
Speaker 1: hear it in the headlines. You don't read it in

254
00:15:58,840 --> 00:16:01,880
Speaker 1: the headlines this. Why isn't this on the front page everywhere?

255
00:16:01,880 --> 00:16:03,960
Speaker 1: Why isn't this the lead story in America?

256
00:16:05,280 --> 00:16:05,960
Speaker 2: You know it.

257
00:16:06,080 --> 00:16:08,200
Speaker 1: You may not know the exact number, but you go

258
00:16:08,280 --> 00:16:10,560
Speaker 1: to the store three times a week. You stop and

259
00:16:10,800 --> 00:16:14,080
Speaker 1: pump gas once or twice a week. You know that

260
00:16:14,160 --> 00:16:16,520
Speaker 1: the gas here is five point thirty five, and now

261
00:16:16,560 --> 00:16:19,520
Speaker 1: I'm telling you that it's it's three zho six in Colorado.

262
00:16:20,360 --> 00:16:24,040
Speaker 1: You know the price has gone up dramatically, and depending

263
00:16:24,040 --> 00:16:25,960
Speaker 1: on what you buy, it's gone up thirty six to

264
00:16:26,000 --> 00:16:31,240
Speaker 1: fifty percent. And you know that the economy is struggling

265
00:16:31,440 --> 00:16:34,280
Speaker 1: because there are fewer full time jobs than last month,

266
00:16:34,960 --> 00:16:38,640
Speaker 1: fewer full time jobs than a year ago. It's part

267
00:16:38,720 --> 00:16:47,720
Speaker 1: time jobs that have increased. So I I mean, as

268
00:16:48,000 --> 00:16:52,600
Speaker 1: one writer for the National Review wrote, it's uh, it's

269
00:16:52,640 --> 00:16:55,880
Speaker 1: easy to envision someone making the same salary or even

270
00:16:55,920 --> 00:16:58,120
Speaker 1: a bit more from two part time jobs than more

271
00:16:58,280 --> 00:17:01,960
Speaker 1: full time job, but being upset about their economic situation

272
00:17:02,040 --> 00:17:03,440
Speaker 1: because they have that two jobs.

273
00:17:07,200 --> 00:17:11,679
Speaker 2: We've got when we come back, all right, it's just

274
00:17:11,800 --> 00:17:14,840
Speaker 2: in California.

275
00:17:15,000 --> 00:17:18,080
Speaker 1: The California government has no idea what they're spending billions

276
00:17:18,080 --> 00:17:20,760
Speaker 1: of dollars on when it comes to homelessness. And this

277
00:17:20,800 --> 00:17:23,760
Speaker 1: is from the official California State Auditor's Office.

278
00:17:24,840 --> 00:17:29,159
Speaker 3: You're listening to John Cobel's on demand from KFI AM

279
00:17:29,200 --> 00:17:29,720
Speaker 3: six forty.

280
00:17:30,400 --> 00:17:31,760
Speaker 1: One of the things we have to do all the

281
00:17:31,800 --> 00:17:35,760
Speaker 1: time here is explain how you're being lied to. And

282
00:17:35,800 --> 00:17:37,919
Speaker 1: that's why we're gonna have assemblyment. Bill is Saley on

283
00:17:39,119 --> 00:17:44,200
Speaker 1: coming up after three o'clock. He's a Republican from Riverside.

284
00:17:44,480 --> 00:17:50,000
Speaker 1: The organizers getting close to the signatures. They need to

285
00:17:50,000 --> 00:17:54,520
Speaker 1: get a referendum on the ballot in November to revise

286
00:17:55,160 --> 00:17:59,879
Speaker 1: greatly Prop forty seven. And the legislature knows that we're

287
00:18:00,040 --> 00:18:02,920
Speaker 1: vision is coming and it's going to pass because everybody

288
00:18:02,960 --> 00:18:04,000
Speaker 1: hates Prop forty seven.

289
00:18:04,000 --> 00:18:06,200
Speaker 2: If you have a brain in your head, the only

290
00:18:06,480 --> 00:18:07,240
Speaker 2: ones who.

291
00:18:07,119 --> 00:18:09,520
Speaker 1: Like Prop forty seven are criminals and the apologists for

292
00:18:09,560 --> 00:18:12,919
Speaker 1: the criminals. So you know, if that referendum gets on

293
00:18:12,960 --> 00:18:16,439
Speaker 1: the ballot, Prop forty seven will be revised greatly. So

294
00:18:16,480 --> 00:18:19,440
Speaker 1: the legislature is trying to fool people into thinking, no, no, no,

295
00:18:19,440 --> 00:18:21,639
Speaker 1: we've got something going on here. We're writing up a

296
00:18:21,680 --> 00:18:24,399
Speaker 1: bill right now. We're going to talk with a sale

297
00:18:24,359 --> 00:18:27,280
Speaker 1: and you'll understand why. It's a lot of crap um.

298
00:18:29,840 --> 00:18:36,040
Speaker 1: This is amazing but not surprising. This just came out

299
00:18:36,720 --> 00:18:42,280
Speaker 1: the elseigun Go Times. The California State Auditor has issued

300
00:18:42,320 --> 00:18:48,960
Speaker 1: a report California has no idea whether billions of dollars

301
00:18:49,040 --> 00:18:52,240
Speaker 1: spent on homelessness is effective in any way.

302
00:18:54,160 --> 00:18:55,000
Speaker 2: They don't know.

303
00:18:55,760 --> 00:18:58,960
Speaker 1: Let me repeat this, the state of California under Gavin

304
00:18:59,040 --> 00:19:02,680
Speaker 1: Newsom has no idea at the billions of dollars they've

305
00:19:02,720 --> 00:19:14,040
Speaker 1: spent on homelessness has been worth it, nobody knows. According

306
00:19:14,080 --> 00:19:19,520
Speaker 1: to California State Auditors Office, Newsom created a state council.

307
00:19:20,440 --> 00:19:23,600
Speaker 2: You know, he's good at creating oversight.

308
00:19:23,200 --> 00:19:28,520
Speaker 1: Councils and councils and task forces, and well, this council

309
00:19:28,640 --> 00:19:35,160
Speaker 1: was supposed to oversee homelessness programs. But this council has

310
00:19:35,200 --> 00:19:42,400
Speaker 1: not consistently tracked spending or outcomes, so they don't know

311
00:19:42,480 --> 00:19:44,800
Speaker 1: what they spent the money on, and they don't know

312
00:19:44,920 --> 00:19:50,800
Speaker 1: if it worked. Obviously, it hasn't worked because homelessness grew

313
00:19:50,920 --> 00:19:54,600
Speaker 1: six percent last year. It's now over one hundred and

314
00:19:54,600 --> 00:19:59,639
Speaker 1: eighty thousand people in the state. Homelessness in the last

315
00:19:59,640 --> 00:20:05,240
Speaker 1: ten year years has grown fifty three percent in California,

316
00:20:05,520 --> 00:20:08,960
Speaker 1: and they have spent twenty billion dollars over the last

317
00:20:09,040 --> 00:20:14,760
Speaker 1: five years. Twenty billion dollars in the last five years.

318
00:20:15,280 --> 00:20:18,720
Speaker 1: Homelessness has got up, and they don't know what it's

319
00:20:18,720 --> 00:20:23,600
Speaker 1: been spent on, and they don't know if anything worked.

320
00:20:24,920 --> 00:20:30,880
Speaker 1: They created this homelessness council in twenty sixteen. It's called

321
00:20:30,880 --> 00:20:36,639
Speaker 1: the California Interagency Council on Homelessness, but they have not

322
00:20:37,560 --> 00:20:41,199
Speaker 1: been able to ensure the accuracy of the information in

323
00:20:41,200 --> 00:20:45,320
Speaker 1: a state data system. Now this is eight years and

324
00:20:45,359 --> 00:20:49,560
Speaker 1: it says they have not evaluated the success of homelessness

325
00:20:49,560 --> 00:20:58,600
Speaker 1: programs eight years. This council, you know, the council's made

326
00:20:58,640 --> 00:21:01,199
Speaker 1: up of state officials, include a name you might remember,

327
00:21:01,520 --> 00:21:06,320
Speaker 1: doctor Mark Gaily. He was that weird, bald guy with

328
00:21:06,359 --> 00:21:10,200
Speaker 1: the strange glasses who looked like an alien from Mars.

329
00:21:10,840 --> 00:21:13,080
Speaker 1: And he was the guy who was in charge of

330
00:21:13,440 --> 00:21:17,760
Speaker 1: shutting businesses down during COVID. He was the guy who

331
00:21:17,840 --> 00:21:21,560
Speaker 1: was locking people up in their homes and not allowing

332
00:21:21,640 --> 00:21:25,000
Speaker 1: businesses to operate. Doctor Mark Gaily, And he was an

333
00:21:25,000 --> 00:21:30,639
Speaker 1: incompetent boob when it came to that, just destroyed businesses

334
00:21:30,680 --> 00:21:33,240
Speaker 1: by the tens of thousands in the state. And Knewson

335
00:21:33,320 --> 00:21:38,440
Speaker 1: would listen to him. And now he's on this Homelessness

336
00:21:38,440 --> 00:21:41,360
Speaker 1: Council and he can't explain where the twenty billion dollars went.

337
00:21:43,000 --> 00:21:48,399
Speaker 1: Another person on the council is Jeff macomber, who's the

338
00:21:48,440 --> 00:21:53,000
Speaker 1: California Department of Corrections secretary. He runs the prison system,

339
00:21:53,400 --> 00:21:57,480
Speaker 1: which is a disaster. So you have two guys who

340
00:21:57,480 --> 00:22:00,439
Speaker 1: are disasters and you put them in show yarde of

341
00:22:00,480 --> 00:22:02,000
Speaker 1: tracking the homeless money.

342
00:22:02,080 --> 00:22:02,920
Speaker 2: And what do you get?

343
00:22:03,359 --> 00:22:12,159
Speaker 1: You get another disaster, for example, a state rental assistance program.

344
00:22:12,800 --> 00:22:16,280
Speaker 1: They could not review it because they don't have the data.

345
00:22:16,320 --> 00:22:20,600
Speaker 1: They never collected the data as to whether helping people

346
00:22:20,680 --> 00:22:21,520
Speaker 1: with rent.

347
00:22:23,560 --> 00:22:25,720
Speaker 2: Kept them metal homelessness. They don't know.

348
00:22:29,680 --> 00:22:34,600
Speaker 1: The audit also examined spending by individual cities San Jose

349
00:22:34,720 --> 00:22:39,080
Speaker 1: and San Diego in particular. Both of them have huge

350
00:22:39,600 --> 00:22:42,680
Speaker 1: vagrant problems, and the audit found that neither of those

351
00:22:42,680 --> 00:22:47,639
Speaker 1: cities has evaluated the effectiveness of their programs despite tens

352
00:22:47,640 --> 00:22:51,920
Speaker 1: of billions in funding, tens of billions of dollars San

353
00:22:51,960 --> 00:22:55,800
Speaker 1: Diego and San Jose. They have no idea billions for California.

354
00:22:55,840 --> 00:23:03,719
Speaker 1: They have no idea if anything works. Now it was

355
00:23:04,000 --> 00:23:07,880
Speaker 1: just a few days ago. Well it's you know, it's

356
00:23:07,920 --> 00:23:11,720
Speaker 1: been a month since the official voting for Prop one

357
00:23:11,880 --> 00:23:15,399
Speaker 1: that was giving news some another six plus billion dollars

358
00:23:16,320 --> 00:23:20,240
Speaker 1: a borrowed money bond money for homelessness, and it should

359
00:23:20,240 --> 00:23:22,280
Speaker 1: not have passed. And this is why it should not

360
00:23:22,320 --> 00:23:26,399
Speaker 1: have passed, because we gave them twenty billion and not

361
00:23:26,440 --> 00:23:30,199
Speaker 1: only did it not work, they don't know why it

362
00:23:30,240 --> 00:23:33,800
Speaker 1: does not work because they don't know where the money

363
00:23:33,840 --> 00:23:45,040
Speaker 1: went and what it was spent on. The executive officer

364
00:23:45,160 --> 00:23:48,000
Speaker 1: for that Homelessness Counsel is a woman named Megan Marshall,

365
00:23:48,600 --> 00:23:54,919
Speaker 1: and she agreed with the state auditors recommendations. So she

366
00:23:55,040 --> 00:23:59,080
Speaker 1: agreed that they have not tracked the money and don't

367
00:23:59,080 --> 00:24:00,960
Speaker 1: know whether the money has been effective.

368
00:24:03,520 --> 00:24:07,359
Speaker 2: Eight years.

369
00:24:07,920 --> 00:24:09,960
Speaker 1: The thing is, I know that the people who vote

370
00:24:09,960 --> 00:24:13,719
Speaker 1: for these minis aren't listening right now, or they're not

371
00:24:13,800 --> 00:24:20,080
Speaker 1: reading these stories. They're just and these people should have

372
00:24:20,119 --> 00:24:23,960
Speaker 1: their voting rights suspended. Story like this comes out, you

373
00:24:23,960 --> 00:24:27,160
Speaker 1: should never vote for anybody connecting. You should never vote

374
00:24:27,160 --> 00:24:30,280
Speaker 1: for a Gavin Newsome. Let's say, you should never vote

375
00:24:30,520 --> 00:24:33,160
Speaker 1: to borrow any more money for homelessness. By the way,

376
00:24:33,920 --> 00:24:38,080
Speaker 1: twenty thirteen they said homelessness is up fifty three percent

377
00:24:38,119 --> 00:24:41,160
Speaker 1: of twenty thirteen. You know that was the last year

378
00:24:41,160 --> 00:24:46,920
Speaker 1: before Prop forty seven. Someday, maybe there's an honest researcher

379
00:24:47,280 --> 00:24:51,040
Speaker 1: and they'll tell the truth that Prop forty seven cleared

380
00:24:51,080 --> 00:24:55,560
Speaker 1: out the prisons and the jails, prevented criminals from going

381
00:24:55,560 --> 00:24:58,760
Speaker 1: to jail. They ended up piling up on the street

382
00:24:59,560 --> 00:25:04,520
Speaker 1: doing their drugs, stealing to support their drug habits, and

383
00:25:04,560 --> 00:25:06,080
Speaker 1: that's what created all the homelessness.

384
00:25:06,760 --> 00:25:07,919
Speaker 2: Prop forty seven.

385
00:25:09,160 --> 00:25:13,119
Speaker 1: That and are tolerance for it, which led to people

386
00:25:13,200 --> 00:25:16,879
Speaker 1: moving in from all over the country because they heard

387
00:25:17,080 --> 00:25:21,480
Speaker 1: anything goes on the California streets. They come by train,

388
00:25:22,400 --> 00:25:27,000
Speaker 1: they drive, they come by bus from all the other

389
00:25:27,080 --> 00:25:33,120
Speaker 1: states in the Union because they heard that everything's nuts here.

390
00:25:33,560 --> 00:25:37,399
Speaker 1: There's no rules, no laws, nothing matters more coming up.

391
00:25:38,320 --> 00:25:42,639
Speaker 3: You're listening to John Cobels on demand from KFI AM

392
00:25:42,680 --> 00:25:43,480

Speaker 1: I Am six forty live everywhere on the iHeartRadio app. Oh,

394
00:25:48,160 --> 00:25:50,040
Speaker 1: I don't think I mentioned the moist line in a while.

395
00:25:50,080 --> 00:25:53,760
Speaker 1: Eight seven seven moist eighty six, Today's Tuesday. You got

Speaker 1: eighty six.

398
00:25:57,800 --> 00:25:58,680
Speaker 2: Whatever this is?

399
00:25:58,720 --> 00:26:03,080
Speaker 1: You off, plenty of room, plenty of room, vacancies. Come on,

400
00:26:03,200 --> 00:26:06,840
Speaker 1: I've given you enough material here or used the talkback

401
00:26:06,880 --> 00:26:12,399
Speaker 1: feature on the iHeart app voistline. Uh next hour, all right,

402
00:26:12,440 --> 00:26:15,000
Speaker 1: we're gonna have Bill Sale on, as I mentioned, because

403
00:26:15,000 --> 00:26:18,680
Speaker 1: the legislature is trying to deceive you again, claiming they've

404
00:26:18,720 --> 00:26:22,160
Speaker 1: got some kind of legislation to a fixed prop forty seven.

405
00:26:22,200 --> 00:26:28,920
Speaker 1: That's not possible. We'll explain why. And also Rand Paul

406
00:26:29,320 --> 00:26:32,960
Speaker 1: wrote a piece for Fox News. Rand Paul of course,

407
00:26:33,040 --> 00:26:37,760
Speaker 1: has is the senator from Kentucky, and he has been

408
00:26:38,400 --> 00:26:47,040
Speaker 1: attacking Fauci, Anthony Fauci for years, embarrassing him during Senate

409
00:26:47,080 --> 00:26:52,760
Speaker 1: hearings and insisting things that everybody said, no, no, no,

410
00:26:52,880 --> 00:26:57,000
Speaker 1: that's wrong, you're crazy. He never backed down, and he

411
00:26:57,359 --> 00:27:04,359
Speaker 1: now says that officials from fifteen federal agencies knew in

412
00:27:04,600 --> 00:27:10,920
Speaker 1: twenty eighteen that the Wuhan Institute of Virology was trying

413
00:27:10,960 --> 00:27:18,320
Speaker 1: to create a coronavirus like COVID nineteen. And the reason

414
00:27:18,359 --> 00:27:22,640
Speaker 1: the US agencies knew this is they were getting funding

415
00:27:22,720 --> 00:27:27,360
Speaker 1: from the US and that is why everybody went silent

416
00:27:27,520 --> 00:27:31,600
Speaker 1: after the pandemic broke, and you couldn't. They tried to

417
00:27:31,640 --> 00:27:34,680
Speaker 1: sell us the story that the virus came from animals,

418
00:27:35,200 --> 00:27:38,280
Speaker 1: and you weren't allowed to criticize China. They started screaming

419
00:27:38,280 --> 00:27:41,000
Speaker 1: that you're a racist. Well, there is a reason for this.

420
00:27:41,800 --> 00:27:44,720
Speaker 1: We were in on it. We helped finance the research

421
00:27:44,760 --> 00:27:49,280
Speaker 1: in Wuhan to create what became the coronavirus. And Ran

422
00:27:49,400 --> 00:27:54,720
Speaker 1: Paul wrote a long piece today and A thinks Faciotto

423
00:27:55,040 --> 00:27:59,200
Speaker 1: faced some kind of justice at some point, So we'll

424
00:27:59,200 --> 00:28:02,680
Speaker 1: get to that coming up next hour. A bad day

425
00:28:02,800 --> 00:28:07,879
Speaker 1: for the electric car fanatics. Electric bus service and the

426
00:28:07,920 --> 00:28:12,560
Speaker 1: Antelope Valley was suspended this week. People who decided to

427
00:28:13,680 --> 00:28:16,359
Speaker 1: use the electric buses to get to work or school,

428
00:28:17,560 --> 00:28:21,680
Speaker 1: you can't. Turns out, the Antelope Valley Transit Authority has

429
00:28:21,720 --> 00:28:27,200
Speaker 1: a fleet of battery buses that were halted out of

430
00:28:27,240 --> 00:28:31,400
Speaker 1: an abundance of caution and for reasons outside of our control.

431
00:28:32,720 --> 00:28:34,320
Speaker 2: And you may be wondering, jeep, what is that?

432
00:28:35,280 --> 00:28:38,800
Speaker 1: Well, some writers think it may have something to do

433
00:28:38,840 --> 00:28:44,880
Speaker 1: with electric batteries catching fire. The Analope Valley Transit Authority

434
00:28:44,920 --> 00:28:48,800
Speaker 1: won't talk about it, which means it's something really bad

435
00:28:50,200 --> 00:28:53,840
Speaker 1: because they could just say otherwise, and maybe something caught

436
00:28:53,880 --> 00:29:00,880
Speaker 1: fire and word has spread around they have so people

437
00:29:00,920 --> 00:29:05,120
Speaker 1: take buses to Los Angeles Century City, San Fernando Valley.

438
00:29:07,800 --> 00:29:12,360
Speaker 2: And it's uh.

439
00:29:10,560 --> 00:29:13,640
Speaker 1: And and now people are complaining that they were told

440
00:29:13,640 --> 00:29:18,360
Speaker 1: that they could transfer their tickets to Metrolink, but Metrolink

441
00:29:18,400 --> 00:29:21,240
Speaker 1: has not been letting them on. You know what, drive

442
00:29:21,240 --> 00:29:24,440
Speaker 1: a car like everybody else, you take an electric bus,

443
00:29:24,440 --> 00:29:26,560
Speaker 1: what do you think is gonna happen? They don't work.

444
00:29:29,320 --> 00:29:34,400
Speaker 1: I just just be an adult. You're gonna you're gonna

445
00:29:34,400 --> 00:29:37,720
Speaker 1: live that far away you're gonna have to buy yourself

446
00:29:38,040 --> 00:29:40,760
Speaker 1: a car. You think you think our electric bus system

447
00:29:40,800 --> 00:29:42,640
Speaker 1: is really going to be a hit. Have you read

448
00:29:42,640 --> 00:29:46,440
Speaker 1: what's going on with all the electric cars and buses.

449
00:29:46,440 --> 00:29:51,880
Speaker 1: In fact, here's a story today Tesla's cyber truck. Tesla's

450
00:29:51,920 --> 00:29:58,680
Speaker 1: cyber truck starts at eighty thousand dollars and people are

451
00:29:58,760 --> 00:30:02,800
Speaker 1: riding online. How they're malfunctioning and breaking down.

452
00:30:04,520 --> 00:30:05,200
Speaker 2: Uh.

453
00:30:05,240 --> 00:30:09,880
Speaker 1: One guy here in southern California titled his post worst

454
00:30:09,880 --> 00:30:13,440
Speaker 1: delivery in My Life. The truck died in five minutes.

455
00:30:15,160 --> 00:30:19,120
Speaker 1: His uh, cyber truck was delivered last month and it

456
00:30:19,200 --> 00:30:23,760
Speaker 1: made it one mile down the road started, he started

457
00:30:23,760 --> 00:30:27,400
Speaker 1: getting a steering error, a flashing red screen. He pulls

458
00:30:27,440 --> 00:30:31,560
Speaker 1: off the side of the highway. The truck dies. They

459
00:30:31,600 --> 00:30:35,240
Speaker 1: had to wait for a tow truck. The Tesla dealer

460
00:30:35,240 --> 00:30:38,520
Speaker 1: couldn't do anything for me. It was great for five minutes.

461
00:30:38,760 --> 00:30:42,480
Speaker 1: I tried everything. Restarting screen is stuck black and it

462
00:30:42,600 --> 00:30:43,360
Speaker 1: keeps beeping.

463
00:30:45,720 --> 00:30:46,120
Speaker 2: Uh.

464
00:30:46,200 --> 00:30:52,200
Speaker 1: The owner of the vehicle, Uh, let's see what did

465
00:30:52,240 --> 00:30:54,320
Speaker 1: it say here? Oh he got He got the vehicle

466
00:30:54,360 --> 00:30:58,440
Speaker 1: last December and he thinks Tesla rushed out the trucks.

467
00:30:59,160 --> 00:31:04,120
Speaker 1: Now somebody else wrote that his cyber truck his autopilot

468
00:31:04,200 --> 00:31:08,600
Speaker 1: feature malfunctioned. He's driving down the road and another truck

469
00:31:09,080 --> 00:31:11,720
Speaker 1: was approaching in the other lane. They were both driving

470
00:31:11,720 --> 00:31:17,920
Speaker 1: on a highway. His cyber truck thought that the oncoming

471
00:31:17,960 --> 00:31:23,720
Speaker 1: truck was in its lane right, that the driver was

472
00:31:23,840 --> 00:31:25,960
Speaker 1: running up on the backside of a truck in front

473
00:31:25,960 --> 00:31:29,120
Speaker 1: of him. It wasn't. It was an approaching truck in

474
00:31:29,160 --> 00:31:32,320
Speaker 1: the other lane. So his cyber truck made a hard

475
00:31:32,360 --> 00:31:38,520
Speaker 1: break stop. Luckily there was no vehicle behind me, or

476
00:31:38,520 --> 00:31:41,760
Speaker 1: it would have been a definite collision. So this truck

477
00:31:41,880 --> 00:31:47,080
Speaker 1: just arbitrarily breaked hard on a highway while they were

478
00:31:47,120 --> 00:31:52,880
Speaker 1: going at a pretty decent speed. There's another discussion board,

479
00:31:53,520 --> 00:31:56,240
Speaker 1: and a guy wrote a review that was so critical

480
00:31:56,280 --> 00:31:59,200
Speaker 1: he got kicked off. The cyber truck owners for him.

481
00:32:00,200 --> 00:32:03,680
Speaker 1: But people need to hear the truth, he writes. It's

482
00:32:03,720 --> 00:32:06,160
Speaker 1: not glorious. The cyber truck isn't a truck. It's a

483
00:32:06,160 --> 00:32:09,840
Speaker 1: toy truck at best, an experimental concept at worse. I

484
00:32:09,880 --> 00:32:12,200
Speaker 1: rented mine in LA and I spent twenty four hours

485
00:32:12,200 --> 00:32:15,440
Speaker 1: with it. It doesn't take potholes or bumps. Well, it's

486
00:32:15,480 --> 00:32:24,040
Speaker 1: atrociously bad. Rat least they didn't catch fire. Let's see,

487
00:32:24,040 --> 00:32:27,480
Speaker 1: we've got another review here. The windshield wipers didn't work,

488
00:32:28,200 --> 00:32:32,840
Speaker 1: the headlights were pissed poor in the dark, the windshield

489
00:32:32,880 --> 00:32:39,040
Speaker 1: had a bad glare leading to borderline dangerous visibility, and

490
00:32:40,400 --> 00:32:45,640
Speaker 1: the uh other Other owners of the cyber truck say

491
00:32:45,680 --> 00:32:48,760
Speaker 1: it takes anywhere from seven to fourteen and a half

492
00:32:48,800 --> 00:32:50,280
Speaker 1: hours to charge it.

493
00:32:52,720 --> 00:32:56,760
Speaker 2: Fourteen and a half hours.

494
00:32:57,640 --> 00:33:02,960
Speaker 1: Okay, good, They cost one hundred thousand dollars. One hundred

495
00:33:03,000 --> 00:33:07,000
Speaker 1: thousand dollars and you gotta wait. You gotta wait fourteen

496
00:33:07,040 --> 00:33:09,600
Speaker 1: and a half hours for a full charge. All right,

497
00:33:09,640 --> 00:33:10,920
Speaker 1: we come back, We're we talk to BILLI.

498
00:33:11,040 --> 00:33:11,360
Speaker 2: Saley.

499
00:33:11,560 --> 00:33:14,560
Speaker 1: What's the big lie coming out of the California legislature. Now,

500
