WEBVTT - Newsom--Let's Get This Guy Outta Here!  Larry Elder Talks to A&G

0:00:00.120 --> 0:00:02.200
<v Speaker 1>It's pretty amazing to me. You've got two governors to

0:00:02.320 --> 0:00:06.720
<v Speaker 1>the most high profile governors in the entire country, Cuomo

0:00:06.800 --> 0:00:09.720
<v Speaker 1>in New York and Gavin Newsoman California. They both looked

0:00:09.720 --> 0:00:12.000
<v Speaker 1>like they're on the verge of getting booted out of

0:00:12.039 --> 0:00:15.320
<v Speaker 1>their offices for a while for very very good reasons,

0:00:15.400 --> 0:00:18.079
<v Speaker 1>both of them, and they both have come back somewhat

0:00:19.840 --> 0:00:22.079
<v Speaker 1>indoor America has just moved on. I don't know, but

0:00:22.120 --> 0:00:24.759
<v Speaker 1>they're both rotten. They're both deserving of getting booted out

0:00:24.760 --> 0:00:27.480
<v Speaker 1>of office. And uh recently announced one of the fellows

0:00:27.520 --> 0:00:30.840
<v Speaker 1>going for Gavin new Selini's office is Larry Elder, the

0:00:30.840 --> 0:00:34.280
<v Speaker 1>stage from South Central, longtime nationally syndicated radio host and

0:00:34.400 --> 0:00:38.239
<v Speaker 1>newspaper columnist, author, award winning documentary filmmakers cheech. When does

0:00:38.280 --> 0:00:42.559
<v Speaker 1>he sleep? Larry Elder joins us. Now, Larry, how are you, sir? Gentlemen?

0:00:42.600 --> 0:00:44.000
<v Speaker 1>Thank you so much for having me. I really do

0:00:44.040 --> 0:00:46.720
<v Speaker 1>appreciate it. So California is going to actually have a

0:00:46.800 --> 0:00:49.640
<v Speaker 1>recall election. And what's the date of that now? Do

0:00:49.680 --> 0:00:53.320
<v Speaker 1>we know that? Yeah? September fourteen, although the fm T

0:00:53.440 --> 0:00:56.280
<v Speaker 1>ballots go out in about thirty days or so. And

0:00:56.320 --> 0:00:58.680
<v Speaker 1>if you guys know two point two million people signed

0:00:58.680 --> 0:01:01.680
<v Speaker 1>this petition, many of them or Democrats Independence who voted

0:01:01.720 --> 0:01:03.720
<v Speaker 1>for this guy two years ago and have now changed

0:01:03.760 --> 0:01:06.600
<v Speaker 1>their mind. They've seen the crime, They've seen the rioting homelessness,

0:01:06.800 --> 0:01:08.760
<v Speaker 1>They've seen the rising cost of living, They've seen that

0:01:08.840 --> 0:01:11.560
<v Speaker 1>the fact that Californians have a net migration out of

0:01:11.560 --> 0:01:13.840
<v Speaker 1>the state for the first time in history. While these

0:01:13.840 --> 0:01:16.880
<v Speaker 1>guys munching away at the French laundry violating the very

0:01:16.880 --> 0:01:21.280
<v Speaker 1>mandates that the medical professionals he's sitting with wrote his

0:01:21.400 --> 0:01:24.320
<v Speaker 1>own kids remaining an in person private school, shutting out

0:01:24.440 --> 0:01:28.280
<v Speaker 1>education for a whole year. Meanwhile, California public schools have

0:01:28.400 --> 0:01:31.119
<v Speaker 1>produced a system where seventy five percent of black kids

0:01:31.160 --> 0:01:34.400
<v Speaker 1>in this state cannot read at state levels of proficiency,

0:01:34.720 --> 0:01:37.120
<v Speaker 1>of all kids cannot and they lost a whole year

0:01:37.160 --> 0:01:40.800
<v Speaker 1>of education. It is absolutely outrageous what's going on. One

0:01:40.840 --> 0:01:42.960
<v Speaker 1>of the many things I'm gonna be champion, gentlemen, is

0:01:43.000 --> 0:01:45.280
<v Speaker 1>school's choice. The money are to follow the child is

0:01:45.280 --> 0:01:47.920
<v Speaker 1>in the other way around. Amen to that. Uh And

0:01:47.920 --> 0:01:50.200
<v Speaker 1>and speaking of school choice, the teachers unions are going

0:01:50.240 --> 0:01:52.520
<v Speaker 1>to come with their brick bats and hatchets at you

0:01:52.680 --> 0:01:56.640
<v Speaker 1>and anybody who dares to try to toss Gavin out

0:01:56.640 --> 0:02:00.640
<v Speaker 1>of office. What would you say to the the parents

0:02:00.920 --> 0:02:03.920
<v Speaker 1>of California school kids about the teachers unions and what

0:02:03.960 --> 0:02:08.000
<v Speaker 1>they've been doing lately. Well, you ask yourself, why is

0:02:08.040 --> 0:02:10.480
<v Speaker 1>it that if you are a public school teacher in

0:02:10.600 --> 0:02:12.919
<v Speaker 1>Los Angeles, for example, you are twice it's likely to

0:02:13.000 --> 0:02:15.480
<v Speaker 1>have your own school aged kids in private school. Then

0:02:15.520 --> 0:02:18.919
<v Speaker 1>households that do not have a public school public school teacher, uh,

0:02:19.120 --> 0:02:20.960
<v Speaker 1>they know the system the best and they don't want

0:02:20.960 --> 0:02:25.360
<v Speaker 1>their own kids in it. In Philadelphia, public school teachers

0:02:25.400 --> 0:02:27.560
<v Speaker 1>who have school aged kids have their own chids in

0:02:27.600 --> 0:02:30.520
<v Speaker 1>private schools, as opposed to ten percent of families nationwide

0:02:30.680 --> 0:02:33.080
<v Speaker 1>and six percent of black families nationwide. That said, if

0:02:33.080 --> 0:02:35.120
<v Speaker 1>you had a restaurant and you held a side, is

0:02:35.200 --> 0:02:38.280
<v Speaker 1>that come on in, just don't eat the food. That

0:02:38.400 --> 0:02:40.880
<v Speaker 1>is an amazing stat right there. And I I had

0:02:40.919 --> 0:02:44.400
<v Speaker 1>my kid, uh in public school in California. I wasn't

0:02:44.400 --> 0:02:47.760
<v Speaker 1>crazy about the curriculum and that was pre critical race

0:02:47.800 --> 0:02:50.120
<v Speaker 1>theory being shoved into the schools. But then I had

0:02:50.160 --> 0:02:52.200
<v Speaker 1>to move into a private school because they weren't having

0:02:52.240 --> 0:02:55.600
<v Speaker 1>school with the covid um. I know you got some

0:02:55.600 --> 0:02:57.560
<v Speaker 1>some big thoughts on the critical race theory that they're

0:02:57.560 --> 0:03:00.520
<v Speaker 1>putting into the public schools. What you're a die? How

0:03:00.520 --> 0:03:04.560
<v Speaker 1>come we don't want racism taught in the schools because

0:03:04.560 --> 0:03:06.519
<v Speaker 1>of SEC requirements. I really can't tell you how I

0:03:06.520 --> 0:03:11.120
<v Speaker 1>feel about critical race theories. You know, the number one

0:03:11.160 --> 0:03:14.720
<v Speaker 1>problem facing the black community is not the need for reparations,

0:03:14.760 --> 0:03:16.560
<v Speaker 1>not the need for self esteem, not the need for

0:03:16.600 --> 0:03:19.760
<v Speaker 1>critical race theory. It's the absence of fathers in the home.

0:03:20.280 --> 0:03:23.160
<v Speaker 1>Seventy seventy percent of black kids into the world without

0:03:23.160 --> 0:03:25.799
<v Speaker 1>a father married to the mother in nineteen sixty five.

0:03:25.840 --> 0:03:28.760
<v Speaker 1>That number, you want to tell me America, that's more

0:03:28.840 --> 0:03:30.960
<v Speaker 1>racist now than it was in nineteen sixty five. What

0:03:31.040 --> 0:03:34.160
<v Speaker 1>we've done with the welfare war on poverty is to

0:03:34.320 --> 0:03:37.200
<v Speaker 1>incentivise women to marry the government and to incentivised men

0:03:37.280 --> 0:03:40.320
<v Speaker 1>to abandon their financial and more responsibility. And guys, forget

0:03:40.360 --> 0:03:43.160
<v Speaker 1>about elder because I'm a right wing cook. How about

0:03:43.160 --> 0:03:45.320
<v Speaker 1>Barack Obama? Brock Obama once said, in one of these

0:03:45.440 --> 0:03:48.520
<v Speaker 1>rare moments of candor, a kid raised about a father

0:03:48.640 --> 0:03:50.920
<v Speaker 1>is five times more likely to be poor and commit crime,

0:03:51.280 --> 0:03:53.320
<v Speaker 1>nine times more likely to drop out of school, twenty

0:03:53.320 --> 0:03:55.400
<v Speaker 1>times more likely to end up in jail twenty times

0:03:55.400 --> 0:03:57.440
<v Speaker 1>were like could end up in jail now, which caused

0:03:57.720 --> 0:04:00.000
<v Speaker 1>the out of wedlock birth rate and the Black community

0:04:00.000 --> 0:04:03.920
<v Speaker 1>to go from sixty nine there seventy percent. Now. It's

0:04:03.960 --> 0:04:07.000
<v Speaker 1>the welfare state that the left doesn't even want to

0:04:07.000 --> 0:04:08.640
<v Speaker 1>talk about because they have to look in the mirror

0:04:08.640 --> 0:04:11.040
<v Speaker 1>and say to myself, oh my goodness, what have I done?

0:04:11.160 --> 0:04:13.800
<v Speaker 1>And they cannot have that conversation. Interesting to have you

0:04:13.840 --> 0:04:16.760
<v Speaker 1>talked about it today? You know Bill Clinton uh tied

0:04:16.960 --> 0:04:21.920
<v Speaker 1>working to government money back in We did away with

0:04:21.960 --> 0:04:24.480
<v Speaker 1>that in this biggest package we passed a couple of

0:04:24.520 --> 0:04:26.480
<v Speaker 1>months ago, and the checks are landed in people's bank

0:04:26.520 --> 0:04:29.400
<v Speaker 1>accounts today where he gets several hundred dollars per kid

0:04:29.480 --> 0:04:33.000
<v Speaker 1>per month whether you're working or not. Right, Remember one

0:04:33.000 --> 0:04:35.200
<v Speaker 1>of Bill Clinton's sick things where he was gonna gonna

0:04:35.279 --> 0:04:37.840
<v Speaker 1>reform well forare quote as we know it, he didn't

0:04:37.839 --> 0:04:40.480
<v Speaker 1>do a damn thing until he was scared about losing

0:04:40.520 --> 0:04:43.200
<v Speaker 1>re election. Uh, and his uh Dick Morris told him,

0:04:43.279 --> 0:04:45.760
<v Speaker 1>unless you signed this bill that you twice vetoed, you're

0:04:45.760 --> 0:04:48.719
<v Speaker 1>probably not gonna be get re electives. We signed it. Remember,

0:04:49.240 --> 0:04:52.120
<v Speaker 1>nearly half of the Congressional Black Caucus was angry. Hillary

0:04:52.200 --> 0:04:54.839
<v Speaker 1>was so mad that she stopped even talking to one

0:04:54.880 --> 0:04:57.320
<v Speaker 1>of her best friends, Marry and Wright element who's ahead

0:04:57.360 --> 0:05:00.200
<v Speaker 1>of the Children's Defense Fund. But what happened, well, fair

0:05:00.279 --> 0:05:03.120
<v Speaker 1>rolls declined more than fifty A whole bunch of able

0:05:03.160 --> 0:05:05.680
<v Speaker 1>bodied people, able biden people got off the couch and

0:05:05.680 --> 0:05:07.720
<v Speaker 1>went to the job market. After for the first time,

0:05:07.880 --> 0:05:10.159
<v Speaker 1>we had time limits on welfare, and we had what

0:05:10.279 --> 0:05:13.159
<v Speaker 1>was called caps on additional children. You could no longer

0:05:13.200 --> 0:05:15.520
<v Speaker 1>have additional children and get additional money. They were called

0:05:15.520 --> 0:05:18.000
<v Speaker 1>family caps. And all of a sudden, the same people

0:05:18.040 --> 0:05:20.599
<v Speaker 1>that were watching television, watching Oprah got off their butts

0:05:20.680 --> 0:05:23.000
<v Speaker 1>and went out and got jobs. And now we're reversing

0:05:23.040 --> 0:05:26.520
<v Speaker 1>that philosophy. What's going on here. We're incentivizing people not

0:05:26.600 --> 0:05:28.839
<v Speaker 1>to work. It's one of the reasons why only a

0:05:28.839 --> 0:05:31.080
<v Speaker 1>half of all the jobs had been recovered in California,

0:05:31.200 --> 0:05:34.320
<v Speaker 1>whereas two thirds have been recovered outside of California, because

0:05:34.320 --> 0:05:37.120
<v Speaker 1>Gavin Newsom has been basically paying people not to work.

0:05:37.279 --> 0:05:39.760
<v Speaker 1>There was a study done by economists at Bank of America.

0:05:39.760 --> 0:05:42.080
<v Speaker 1>I don't think these were trumpers, and they said anybody

0:05:42.120 --> 0:05:44.880
<v Speaker 1>making around thirty two thousand dollars for less. It's better

0:05:44.920 --> 0:05:47.560
<v Speaker 1>off not working right now, at least until September when

0:05:47.560 --> 0:05:50.880
<v Speaker 1>the benefits are supposed to expire. This is what's going on.

0:05:50.960 --> 0:05:53.360
<v Speaker 1>This is why people cannot find workers, even though uh

0:05:53.360 --> 0:05:56.279
<v Speaker 1>the we now allowed the economy to open up again

0:05:57.160 --> 0:06:01.120
<v Speaker 1>and and gather newsom uh and some of these people

0:06:01.160 --> 0:06:03.080
<v Speaker 1>have never even run eliminates stand. I talked a lot

0:06:03.080 --> 0:06:06.039
<v Speaker 1>of thought about the of l a Eric Garciti. He

0:06:06.160 --> 0:06:08.320
<v Speaker 1>jacked up the minimum wage after a bunch of people

0:06:08.320 --> 0:06:10.599
<v Speaker 1>he invited him, brought their profit in law states and

0:06:10.640 --> 0:06:13.039
<v Speaker 1>told him how then their margins were. Please don't do this,

0:06:13.120 --> 0:06:15.280
<v Speaker 1>Please don't do this. He listened to all of them,

0:06:15.400 --> 0:06:17.359
<v Speaker 1>got up button this code and said, I believe you

0:06:17.360 --> 0:06:20.080
<v Speaker 1>can absorb the cost these guys working fifty eight hours

0:06:20.080 --> 0:06:22.160
<v Speaker 1>a week and gather and Eric dar City has never

0:06:22.200 --> 0:06:26.080
<v Speaker 1>even run eliminates stand telling business people I can artificially

0:06:26.160 --> 0:06:28.360
<v Speaker 1>jack up the cost of your doing business and you

0:06:28.400 --> 0:06:30.560
<v Speaker 1>can handle it. And I'm going out and going going

0:06:30.560 --> 0:06:32.960
<v Speaker 1>to have lunch. It's offensive. And I think a lot

0:06:32.960 --> 0:06:35.880
<v Speaker 1>of Native Californians have had it with the crime, with

0:06:35.920 --> 0:06:39.240
<v Speaker 1>the homelessness, with the rising cost of living, the average

0:06:39.279 --> 0:06:41.680
<v Speaker 1>price of a home in California cost a hundred fifty

0:06:41.720 --> 0:06:44.520
<v Speaker 1>percent more than a home outside of California, and the

0:06:44.560 --> 0:06:47.599
<v Speaker 1>average price of a home in California is more because

0:06:47.600 --> 0:06:50.599
<v Speaker 1>of the environmental wacky wackies that are jacking up the

0:06:50.640 --> 0:06:53.000
<v Speaker 1>price of healthing. That's why young families are leaving for

0:06:53.000 --> 0:06:55.480
<v Speaker 1>the first time in our state's history. And I think

0:06:55.480 --> 0:06:56.919
<v Speaker 1>I'm the guy to reverse all of that. And I

0:06:56.920 --> 0:06:59.520
<v Speaker 1>want people to go to elect Elder dot com. Elect

0:06:59.600 --> 0:07:02.000
<v Speaker 1>elder com. Throw something in the tip jar. Let's get

0:07:02.040 --> 0:07:04.359
<v Speaker 1>this guy out of here. Larry Elder running for the

0:07:04.400 --> 0:07:06.960
<v Speaker 1>governorship of California. I think your great challenge, Larry is

0:07:06.960 --> 0:07:09.200
<v Speaker 1>going to be getting the attention of the lazy not

0:07:09.240 --> 0:07:12.120
<v Speaker 1>paying attention on electorate. But we wish you well. Good

0:07:12.120 --> 0:07:15.800
<v Speaker 1>to talk to you, Larry Elder. Thanks man, Thanks and

0:07:15.960 --> 0:07:18.600
<v Speaker 1>thank you. Some of those statistics, which you know, if

0:07:18.600 --> 0:07:21.280
<v Speaker 1>you listen to this show and others like us, you've

0:07:21.280 --> 0:07:25.760
<v Speaker 1>heard before. But um, you know, intact families, all that

0:07:25.800 --> 0:07:28.440
<v Speaker 1>all that cultural stuff. That stuff is hard to fix.

0:07:28.520 --> 0:07:33.280
<v Speaker 1>It's complicated. It's a lot easier to just cry racism. Yeah. Yeah.

0:07:33.680 --> 0:07:37.320
<v Speaker 1>Although there are specific incentives and disincentives that the government

0:07:37.320 --> 0:07:40.040
<v Speaker 1>has created, is Larry was referring to that have caused

0:07:40.960 --> 0:07:43.600
<v Speaker 1>a lot of the decay of the black family in America,

0:07:43.720 --> 0:07:46.560
<v Speaker 1>the you know, the disillusion of the black family. One

0:07:46.640 --> 0:07:50.160
<v Speaker 1>quick behind the curtain's note, Um, there are some concern

0:07:50.200 --> 0:07:52.840
<v Speaker 1>in some quarters about having Larry on because he's are

0:07:52.920 --> 0:07:55.520
<v Speaker 1>quote unquote competitor in a handful. He's a radio talk

0:07:55.560 --> 0:07:58.840
<v Speaker 1>show host on other stations. Joe, Yeah, I know the

0:07:58.840 --> 0:08:02.040
<v Speaker 1>way we've always looked at we we never think about

0:08:02.200 --> 0:08:05.440
<v Speaker 1>competitors per se. He's a really interesting guy and I

0:08:05.480 --> 0:08:07.520
<v Speaker 1>agree with him a lot, and Jack agrees with him

0:08:07.520 --> 0:08:09.280
<v Speaker 1>a lot, like you show better than ours, is what

0:08:09.280 --> 0:08:12.760
<v Speaker 1>you're saying. And uh, we've always believed if we're interesting

0:08:12.760 --> 0:08:15.160
<v Speaker 1>and entertaining, will win, and if we're not, we'll lose.

0:08:15.200 --> 0:08:17.880
<v Speaker 1>It's as simple as editor. Doesn't matter what anybody else

0:08:17.960 --> 0:08:20.040
<v Speaker 1>is doing. So anyway, he's a good guy, and I hope,

0:08:20.200 --> 0:08:23.119
<v Speaker 1>I hope he gets over. I've long enjoyed his newspaper column.

0:08:23.200 --> 0:08:28.360
<v Speaker 1>So anyway, I think the chance that the Gavin Newsom

0:08:28.440 --> 0:08:31.440
<v Speaker 1>is recalled is relatively low. I've given up on the

0:08:31.480 --> 0:08:34.920
<v Speaker 1>electorate of California, as I've made clear, had an early dinner.

0:08:35.160 --> 0:08:39.160
<v Speaker 1>People don't people don't vote on issues anymore. It's just

0:08:39.280 --> 0:08:42.040
<v Speaker 1>it's just a team sport. Man, It's just a team sport.

0:08:42.720 --> 0:08:45.600
<v Speaker 1>And uh, and you go with your team. And what

0:08:45.760 --> 0:08:47.920
<v Speaker 1>was that court ruling the other day that Gavin Newsom

0:08:47.960 --> 0:08:49.760
<v Speaker 1>is not allowed to put a D next to his name?

0:08:51.120 --> 0:08:53.040
<v Speaker 1>He didn't follow that now he's not allowed to put

0:08:53.040 --> 0:08:55.800
<v Speaker 1>a D next to his name. So, but you know,

0:08:56.200 --> 0:08:59.760
<v Speaker 1>because it's a nonpartisan special election, I think so he

0:08:59.840 --> 0:09:02.040
<v Speaker 1>just I don't know. That's a guess he doesn't. He

0:09:02.080 --> 0:09:04.839
<v Speaker 1>missed the deadline. Our executive producer Hanson says, So he

0:09:04.920 --> 0:09:06.800
<v Speaker 1>just flat out and missed the deadline so he couldn't

0:09:06.800 --> 0:09:08.440
<v Speaker 1>put a D next to his name. He has had

0:09:08.440 --> 0:09:12.760
<v Speaker 1>an early dinner. We're all human, we all fall short sometimes.

0:09:13.240 --> 0:09:15.560
<v Speaker 1>Is the electorate so stupid that they won't know he's

0:09:15.600 --> 0:09:19.920
<v Speaker 1>the Democratic choice? Uh? If on the recall thing? And

0:09:20.080 --> 0:09:22.400
<v Speaker 1>wait a minute, now you've given me hope. They might

0:09:22.400 --> 0:09:24.679
<v Speaker 1>not even recognize his name. They have no idea who

0:09:24.760 --> 0:09:27.520
<v Speaker 1>the governor is, but the Union goons do, and they'll

0:09:27.559 --> 0:09:28.520
<v Speaker 1>turn out all their people
