1
00:00:00,640 --> 00:00:00,840

Speaker 3: On demand on the iHeart app.

8
00:00:13,000 --> 00:00:16,000
Speaker 2: And if you're just tuning in, we spent the whole

9
00:00:16,040 --> 00:00:21,000
Speaker 2: hour and you should hear this sometime today about the

10
00:00:21,040 --> 00:00:25,280
Speaker 2: California Insurance Commissioner Ricardo Lara. He has got on forty

11
00:00:25,480 --> 00:00:29,320
Speaker 2: eight trips, most of them for pleasure, and charge taxpayers

12
00:00:29,800 --> 00:00:32,839
Speaker 2: tens of thousands of dollars on each of these trips

13
00:00:33,600 --> 00:00:37,000
Speaker 2: and travel all around the world, Safaris in South Africa,

14
00:00:38,720 --> 00:00:43,480
Speaker 2: festivals in New York City, Bogaton, Colombia. He's the insurance commissioner.

15
00:00:43,560 --> 00:00:46,560
Speaker 2: Insurance is a disaster here. Very little of his travel

16
00:00:46,600 --> 00:00:49,400
Speaker 2: had anything to do with insurance. He's just ripping us

17
00:00:49,440 --> 00:00:54,640
Speaker 2: off and enjoying luxury, highest end travel, and he's he's

18
00:00:54,680 --> 00:00:57,279
Speaker 2: spending tens of thousands of dollars on some of these

19
00:00:57,280 --> 00:00:59,720
Speaker 2: trips just for security. You got to hear the whole hour.

20
00:00:59,800 --> 00:01:03,200
Speaker 2: It's it's based on an ABC seven Bay Area in

21
00:01:03,280 --> 00:01:06,840
Speaker 2: San Francisco report by Stephanie Sierra so listen to that.

22
00:01:07,760 --> 00:01:10,399
Speaker 2: Now we're going to go to ABC News. Lee analyst

23
00:01:10,640 --> 00:01:16,560
Speaker 2: Royal Oaks. You know about the government shutdown and Trump

24
00:01:17,319 --> 00:01:21,440
Speaker 2: is making some loud noises about firing enormous numbers of

25
00:01:21,520 --> 00:01:22,440
Speaker 2: federal workers.

26
00:01:23,000 --> 00:01:25,000
Speaker 3: Can he do that? Is it legal?

27
00:01:25,160 --> 00:01:28,920
Speaker 2: Well, Royal's gonna tell us maybe, Royle, how are you?

28
00:01:29,959 --> 00:01:32,279
Speaker 1: I'm doing great? John? Yeah. Well, a couple of big

29
00:01:32,360 --> 00:01:36,240
Speaker 1: federal employee unions have sued the Trump administration up in

30
00:01:36,480 --> 00:01:39,640
Speaker 1: of course, San Francisco. They've got a Clinton appointee, Judge

31
00:01:39,640 --> 00:01:42,840
Speaker 1: Susan Nilsen, And here's their theory. They say, okay, we've

32
00:01:42,880 --> 00:01:45,960
Speaker 1: shut down. That means the law says you can't spend

33
00:01:45,959 --> 00:01:48,960
Speaker 1: any money, you can't create any new obligations while you're

34
00:01:49,000 --> 00:01:52,000
Speaker 1: shut down. They say that if Trump fires a bunch

35
00:01:52,000 --> 00:01:55,800
Speaker 1: of folks, he's creating a duty to pay severance pay,

36
00:01:56,200 --> 00:02:00,000
Speaker 1: and therefore it's technically illegal. It's kind of a creator

37
00:02:00,080 --> 00:02:03,520
Speaker 1: of odd argument, but it could work up in San Francisco.

38
00:02:03,800 --> 00:02:06,440
Speaker 1: The Trump administration says, oh no, no, they are there exceptions.

39
00:02:06,440 --> 00:02:09,160
Speaker 1: You know, during the shutdown, you got the military. You

40
00:02:09,200 --> 00:02:11,359
Speaker 1: don't want to have birth of to die, so they

41
00:02:11,360 --> 00:02:12,519
Speaker 1: say this is an ex sense.

42
00:02:12,400 --> 00:02:16,119
Speaker 2: I guess we should explain that because of the complex

43
00:02:16,160 --> 00:02:20,720
Speaker 2: governor government rules civil service rules, Trump is limited to

44
00:02:20,720 --> 00:02:23,799
Speaker 2: how many people you can just outright fire because if

45
00:02:23,800 --> 00:02:28,640
Speaker 2: money is appropriated by Congress for these positions, then the

46
00:02:28,680 --> 00:02:35,240
Speaker 2: executive branch is required to spend the money. But if

47
00:02:35,280 --> 00:02:39,960
Speaker 2: there's no budget, there's no money appropriated. Trump says, that's

48
00:02:39,960 --> 00:02:44,200
Speaker 2: a different game. I can fire these people because there

49
00:02:44,280 --> 00:02:49,280
Speaker 2: is no more funding for them, so we're not violating it.

50
00:02:50,280 --> 00:02:52,320
Speaker 1: Yeah, and isn't it interesting the way you're describing it

51
00:02:52,360 --> 00:02:54,680
Speaker 1: in the way the federal employees are saying it. Yeah,

52
00:02:54,800 --> 00:02:57,320
Speaker 1: there isn't any real clear answer as to who's right,

53
00:02:57,400 --> 00:02:59,720
Speaker 1: and so you know, we may make some new law here,

54
00:02:59,760 --> 00:03:01,640
Speaker 1: but it's just such a you know, it's such a

55
00:03:01,680 --> 00:03:04,799
Speaker 1: political game of political chicken. I mean, you remember John

56
00:03:04,840 --> 00:03:07,639
Speaker 1: back in the day when when Clinton and Gingrich with

57
00:03:07,760 --> 00:03:10,920
Speaker 1: lockhorns and the Republicans always looked terrible. They got to blame,

58
00:03:11,200 --> 00:03:14,080
Speaker 1: you know, when at Bertha in Biloxi, Mississippi died because

59
00:03:14,080 --> 00:03:16,400
Speaker 1: she didn't get her check because it was shut down.

60
00:03:16,639 --> 00:03:20,320
Speaker 1: But now recently, maybe the Trump administration has the advantage

61
00:03:20,360 --> 00:03:24,440
Speaker 1: and the Democrats are so unpopular that historically worse than

62
00:03:24,480 --> 00:03:26,960
Speaker 1: the last forty years. I think they're taking a gamble

63
00:03:27,000 --> 00:03:28,720
Speaker 1: because they're the ones that said all they needed was

64
00:03:28,720 --> 00:03:31,239
Speaker 1: one or two Democrat senators to join all the Republicans

65
00:03:31,360 --> 00:03:33,840
Speaker 1: they avoid the shutdown. But they said, no, we are

66
00:03:33,880 --> 00:03:35,680
Speaker 1: going to take the gamble. We're going to make a

67
00:03:35,720 --> 00:03:39,280
Speaker 1: comeback here. But yeah, it's just totally confused with politics

68
00:03:39,320 --> 00:03:41,800
Speaker 1: and law. So there's no real clear answer as to

69
00:03:41,840 --> 00:03:43,120
Speaker 1: who's right legally.

70
00:03:43,080 --> 00:03:47,120
Speaker 2: And the answer from a judge might depend on who

71
00:03:47,160 --> 00:03:49,520
Speaker 2: appointed him. Again, how many times have you gone through

72
00:03:49,520 --> 00:03:51,680
Speaker 2: this in the last year. There might be a San

73
00:03:51,720 --> 00:03:54,200
Speaker 2: Francisco judge that sides with the unions, and then the

74
00:03:54,240 --> 00:03:58,440
Speaker 2: next judge on the Appeals Court says, no, Trump's right exactly.

75
00:03:58,520 --> 00:04:00,400
Speaker 1: And you know, a few months ago we got that

76
00:04:00,480 --> 00:04:04,440
Speaker 1: interesting news from the US Supreme Court no more national injunctions.

77
00:04:04,480 --> 00:04:08,000
Speaker 1: So before that ruling, this judge up in San Francisco

78
00:04:08,080 --> 00:04:10,480
Speaker 1: could have issued a national injunction that would have affected

79
00:04:10,600 --> 00:04:13,960
Speaker 1: everybody from Seed the Shining Sea, but now she may

80
00:04:14,000 --> 00:04:17,800
Speaker 1: only affect her district up north in the northern California. Now,

81
00:04:17,920 --> 00:04:21,760
Speaker 1: of course, whoever loses, probably Trump will go immediately to

82
00:04:21,839 --> 00:04:24,440
Speaker 1: the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals and They generally issue

83
00:04:24,440 --> 00:04:27,120
Speaker 1: liberal decisions, but not always. Remember a few months ago

84
00:04:27,200 --> 00:04:30,160
Speaker 1: they came out for Trump on a big immigration issue,

85
00:04:30,240 --> 00:04:32,599
Speaker 1: and ultimately the Supreme Court gets the last word.

86
00:04:32,800 --> 00:04:35,359
Speaker 2: Right, Yes, the Ninth Circuit Appeals Court used to be

87
00:04:35,400 --> 00:04:39,520
Speaker 2: overwhelmingly liberal, but it's getting closer to fifty to fifty

88
00:04:39,600 --> 00:04:43,680
Speaker 2: because of all the justices that Trump has appointed.

89
00:04:45,680 --> 00:04:48,520
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's right. The unions are citing this law called

90
00:04:48,520 --> 00:04:51,799
Speaker 1: the Anti Deficiency Actor, says the federal government may only

91
00:04:51,839 --> 00:04:56,840
Speaker 1: spend what Congress authorized, and Congress has not authorized severance duty.

92
00:04:57,480 --> 00:04:59,520
Speaker 1: But really, you know, again it gets down to the

93
00:04:59,560 --> 00:05:03,400
Speaker 1: shutdown exceptions. The military is okay, public health and public safety.

94
00:05:04,200 --> 00:05:07,000
Speaker 1: You know, it's really going to be resolved, probably in

95
00:05:07,040 --> 00:05:10,040
Speaker 1: the next few days by the Court. Of course, hopefully

96
00:05:10,160 --> 00:05:12,960
Speaker 1: the shutdown will end. It generally ends before too long.

97
00:05:13,200 --> 00:05:15,640
Speaker 1: But it's just always totally infused with politics.

98
00:05:15,800 --> 00:05:18,360
Speaker 2: All right, Royal Oaks, ABC News leg going on us.

99
00:05:18,360 --> 00:05:23,840
Speaker 2: Thank you, thanks for explaining that. All right, we uh,

100
00:05:23,920 --> 00:05:27,840
Speaker 2: all right, when we come back. The crux of this

101
00:05:29,000 --> 00:05:33,719
Speaker 2: fight in Washington, d C. Has to do with Obamacare money.

102
00:05:34,920 --> 00:05:39,960
Speaker 2: During COVID, everybody agreed to spend literally trillions of extra

103
00:05:40,000 --> 00:05:47,000
Speaker 2: dollars on healthcare Obamacare subsidies, and it was supposed to expire,

104
00:05:48,880 --> 00:05:54,120
Speaker 2: and in the latest big beautiful bill, all those subsidies expired.

105
00:05:54,320 --> 00:05:57,920
Speaker 2: That's it, and the Democrats want to put it back.

106
00:05:58,680 --> 00:06:02,000
Speaker 2: See they never do it be temporary, a temporary boost

107
00:06:02,120 --> 00:06:08,400
Speaker 2: during COVID, but spending is never temporary. And then when

108
00:06:08,400 --> 00:06:10,520
Speaker 2: you try to roll back the temporary spending, it's like,

109
00:06:10,600 --> 00:06:13,760
Speaker 2: oh my god, people are going to die. I actually

110
00:06:13,839 --> 00:06:18,040
Speaker 2: heard there was a press conference today AOC and Bernie

111
00:06:18,080 --> 00:06:21,839
Speaker 2: Sanders Ashall press conference climbing fifty thousand people are going

112
00:06:21,920 --> 00:06:24,480
Speaker 2: to die this year if those subsidies are rolled back,

113
00:06:24,640 --> 00:06:28,640
Speaker 2: fifty thousand people are going to die, which is of

114
00:06:28,680 --> 00:06:33,160
Speaker 2: course nonsense, but that's the trick. Oh, we have a crisis.

115
00:06:33,200 --> 00:06:35,960
Speaker 2: We got to raise the money temporarily, we'll roll it back.

116
00:06:37,000 --> 00:06:41,279
Speaker 2: COVID crisis long over what three years, four years gone?

117
00:06:42,480 --> 00:06:46,320
Speaker 2: Money is still being spent. We don't have it. So

118
00:06:46,400 --> 00:06:49,320
Speaker 2: Bernie and AOC are out there saying fifty thousand are

119
00:06:49,320 --> 00:06:54,760
Speaker 2: going to die. Maxine Waters though admitted that part of

120
00:06:54,760 --> 00:06:57,039
Speaker 2: this is they want to fund illegal alien healthcare on

121
00:06:57,080 --> 00:06:59,960
Speaker 2: the federal level, and we have a clip of her.

122
00:07:01,120 --> 00:07:06,679
Speaker 2: We'll play that coming up. And also explain how California

123
00:07:07,160 --> 00:07:11,040
Speaker 2: Deuce aven Newsom is engaged in this money laundering scheme

124
00:07:11,560 --> 00:07:14,960
Speaker 2: to fund a legal alien healthcare. He's taking money from

125
00:07:15,000 --> 00:07:18,360
Speaker 2: the federal government that he should be taking and he's

126
00:07:18,360 --> 00:07:20,720
Speaker 2: spending it on illegal alien healthcare.

127
00:07:22,600 --> 00:07:23,080
Speaker 3: Tell you about it.

128
00:07:23,160 --> 00:07:23,600
Speaker 4: We come back.

129
00:07:24,360 --> 00:07:28,680
Speaker 5: You're listening to John Cobelt on demand from KFI AM

130
00:07:28,720 --> 00:07:29,239
Speaker 5: six forty.

131
00:07:30,680 --> 00:07:32,720
Speaker 2: All right, we just had Royal Oaks on from ABC

132
00:07:32,840 --> 00:07:38,280
Speaker 2: News to explain could Trump actually fire I've seen you know,

133
00:07:38,800 --> 00:07:40,880
Speaker 2: he might get rid of like hundreds of thousands of

134
00:07:40,920 --> 00:07:45,480
Speaker 2: employees because the funding ran out. The government shut down

135
00:07:45,560 --> 00:07:48,640
Speaker 2: because the funding expired end of the fiscal year was

136
00:07:48,680 --> 00:07:51,680
Speaker 2: two days ago. And if there's no money appropriated, then

137
00:07:52,240 --> 00:07:55,160
Speaker 2: nobody gets paid, so a lot of people got sent home.

138
00:07:56,120 --> 00:07:59,520
Speaker 2: Trump is saying, well, normally, normally Trump would not be

139
00:07:59,560 --> 00:08:02,960
Speaker 2: able to unilaterally fire a lot of government workers because

140
00:08:03,160 --> 00:08:06,920
Speaker 2: the money has been appropriated. And if Congress appropriates money

141
00:08:07,160 --> 00:08:13,200
Speaker 2: to spend on employees, then Trump's administration is obligated to

142
00:08:13,240 --> 00:08:17,120
Speaker 2: follow through and spend the money. And that's what the

143
00:08:17,120 --> 00:08:21,360
Speaker 2: courts have said recently. But what if funding runs out

144
00:08:21,400 --> 00:08:27,680
Speaker 2: and there's technically no budget. There is no budget right now,

145
00:08:28,440 --> 00:08:30,720
Speaker 2: so can he even fire the employees. No money's been

146
00:08:30,720 --> 00:08:36,120
Speaker 2: appropriated for them. Trump says, yes. Now these employee unions

147
00:08:36,160 --> 00:08:41,760
Speaker 2: say no. Complicated arguments on both sides, So we're going

148
00:08:41,800 --> 00:08:47,480
Speaker 2: to see. One of the sticking points here is the

149
00:08:47,640 --> 00:08:52,840
Speaker 2: Democrats want Obamacare subsidies. You know, our tax money used

150
00:08:52,920 --> 00:08:58,000
Speaker 2: to help pay for other people's insurance. They dramatically increased

151
00:08:58,160 --> 00:09:02,440
Speaker 2: the Obamacare payouts during COVID right, and then it were

152
00:09:02,440 --> 00:09:05,760
Speaker 2: supposed to expire, but you know, these things never expire.

153
00:09:06,600 --> 00:09:09,600
Speaker 2: Now the Democrats are saying tens of thousands will die

154
00:09:10,120 --> 00:09:12,959
Speaker 2: unless we extend these payoffs. It's like, well, no, they

155
00:09:12,960 --> 00:09:15,480
Speaker 2: weren't dying four years ago. They're not going to die now.

156
00:09:16,440 --> 00:09:19,440
Speaker 2: We just gave away the money. Trump says, no more.

157
00:09:20,960 --> 00:09:23,480
Speaker 2: So that's one of the big sticking points. Some of

158
00:09:23,480 --> 00:09:27,520
Speaker 2: that health care money, some of that money for Medicaid,

159
00:09:27,600 --> 00:09:30,559
Speaker 2: which is the government system to pay for poor people

160
00:09:30,600 --> 00:09:32,920
Speaker 2: health care, goes to illegal aliens.

161
00:09:34,440 --> 00:09:36,280
Speaker 3: It's hard to get the Democrats admit to that.

162
00:09:36,400 --> 00:09:40,360
Speaker 2: But listen very closely to Maxine Waters, because somewhere in

163
00:09:40,440 --> 00:09:43,079
Speaker 2: here she admits to it.

164
00:09:43,559 --> 00:09:46,440
Speaker 6: Do Democrats want to prioritize the health care of illegal

165
00:09:46,480 --> 00:09:49,200
Speaker 6: aliens over a government shutdown because if the government does

166
00:09:49,200 --> 00:09:51,599
Speaker 6: shut down America, excuse.

167
00:09:51,280 --> 00:09:55,679
Speaker 7: Me, stop it right there. We're not prioritizing. What we're

168
00:09:55,720 --> 00:09:59,240
Speaker 7: doing is say simply, we want to keep the government open,

169
00:09:59,559 --> 00:10:01,600
Speaker 7: and we want I want to work with the Republicans

170
00:10:01,760 --> 00:10:05,760
Speaker 7: and have a bipotisan agreement to keep this government open.

171
00:10:06,040 --> 00:10:08,560
Speaker 7: And healthcare is at the top of agenda.

172
00:10:08,600 --> 00:10:11,199
Speaker 6: But our Democrats demanding health care for illegal aliens.

173
00:10:11,320 --> 00:10:11,760
Speaker 4: That's right.

174
00:10:12,480 --> 00:10:16,080
Speaker 7: Democrats are demanding healthcare for everybody.

175
00:10:16,280 --> 00:10:19,200
Speaker 2: All right, it's not there, it is. She was asked

176
00:10:19,240 --> 00:10:23,400
Speaker 2: a direct question. This is Maxine Waters and her wig.

177
00:10:24,960 --> 00:10:30,600
Speaker 2: She has a talking wig. The sound come. She's you know, eighty,

178
00:10:30,920 --> 00:10:33,360
Speaker 2: you might be one hundred and eighty. It's completely out

179
00:10:33,360 --> 00:10:37,559
Speaker 2: of her mind. But there's some district in South Los

180
00:10:37,600 --> 00:10:42,480
Speaker 2: Angeles that keeps sending her in every two years. And

181
00:10:42,520 --> 00:10:46,880
Speaker 2: so this reporter said directly, Democrats might spend health care

182
00:10:46,880 --> 00:10:49,400
Speaker 2: money on the legal aliens. And there was a pause,

183
00:10:49,720 --> 00:10:51,280
Speaker 2: and let's plan that last line again.

184
00:10:51,360 --> 00:10:52,800
Speaker 3: It's at the top of agenda.

185
00:10:52,840 --> 00:10:55,960
Speaker 6: But our Democrats demanding health care for illegal aliens. That's right.

186
00:10:56,720 --> 00:11:00,560
Speaker 7: Democrats are demanding healthcare for every.

187
00:11:00,840 --> 00:11:04,960
Speaker 2: Stop again, everybody. That's a backwards way of saying well, yeah,

188
00:11:04,960 --> 00:11:09,480
Speaker 2: including illegal aliens. Everybody would that legal aliens would fall

189
00:11:09,559 --> 00:11:11,000
Speaker 2: under everybody play some more.

190
00:11:11,559 --> 00:11:14,959
Speaker 7: We want to save lives. We want to make sure

191
00:11:15,440 --> 00:11:20,360
Speaker 7: that health care is available to those who would die

192
00:11:21,080 --> 00:11:24,520
Speaker 7: but having the help of their government.

193
00:11:24,880 --> 00:11:26,920
Speaker 6: So you're good with the government shutdown even if it

194
00:11:27,000 --> 00:11:30,600
Speaker 6: means giving health care to people who aren't Americans.

195
00:11:30,960 --> 00:11:34,360
Speaker 7: Well, you keep that's what you're pushing on. What you're

196
00:11:34,400 --> 00:11:37,880
Speaker 7: trying to do is you're standing here and you're trying

197
00:11:37,920 --> 00:11:41,040
Speaker 7: to make me say that somehow we're going to put

198
00:11:41,120 --> 00:11:42,720
Speaker 7: non citizens over Americas.

199
00:11:42,840 --> 00:11:44,079
Speaker 3: Quit it, stop it.

200
00:11:44,320 --> 00:11:46,800
Speaker 7: This is the kind of journalism we don't need. You

201
00:11:46,880 --> 00:11:51,640
Speaker 7: have divisive No, you're not. You're being devis said, no, please, don't.

202
00:11:51,720 --> 00:11:54,079
Speaker 7: You don't need to ask that question. You're just trying

203
00:11:54,080 --> 00:11:55,320
Speaker 7: to get controversy here.

204
00:11:55,440 --> 00:11:56,680
Speaker 4: You're not going to get me.

205
00:11:57,080 --> 00:12:00,480
Speaker 7: We want to save health care for all people.

206
00:12:00,760 --> 00:12:04,240
Speaker 2: Okay, that's the Maxine Water is the talking wig, and

207
00:12:04,480 --> 00:12:10,000
Speaker 2: she admits healthcare for everybody, free healthcare for everybody. That's

208
00:12:10,040 --> 00:12:13,520
Speaker 2: what they want to fund. And that's one of the

209
00:12:13,520 --> 00:12:17,520
Speaker 2: major fault lines in the shutdown. And you will see

210
00:12:17,559 --> 00:12:19,720
Speaker 2: Democrats go on television and I've seen them, I've heard

211
00:12:19,720 --> 00:12:22,760
Speaker 2: them and they lie and they say that the well,

212
00:12:22,800 --> 00:12:26,720
Speaker 2: it's against the law to give the legal aliens healthcare. Yeah,

213
00:12:26,720 --> 00:12:30,120
Speaker 2: it is against the law, but it's done all the time,

214
00:12:30,200 --> 00:12:37,400
Speaker 2: especially in California. And here's how it's done. I'll give

215
00:12:37,440 --> 00:12:39,200
Speaker 2: you the name more of these Democrats making the claim.

216
00:12:39,320 --> 00:12:44,760
Speaker 2: Senator state Senator here in California, Sasha Renee Perez. She

217
00:12:44,960 --> 00:12:50,560
Speaker 2: went on x and said, flat out, undocumented immigrants cannot

218
00:12:50,640 --> 00:12:58,959
Speaker 2: receive federal Medicare Medicaid. She's criticizing a Republican congresswoman. She's saying,

219
00:12:59,000 --> 00:13:03,240
Speaker 2: you're a member of Congress, you should know this. And

220
00:13:03,440 --> 00:13:07,320
Speaker 2: somebody wrote back in Matt van Swall, are you the

221
00:13:07,440 --> 00:13:11,600
Speaker 2: dumbest senator to ever live? Of course they can. And

222
00:13:11,640 --> 00:13:14,320
Speaker 2: this was a great post because it explained in two lines,

223
00:13:14,800 --> 00:13:18,920
Speaker 2: the federal government funds Medicaid to the states. The states

224
00:13:19,200 --> 00:13:26,360
Speaker 2: fund their own Medicaid, for example Medical for California, Medical

225
00:13:26,679 --> 00:13:31,800
Speaker 2: specifically funds illegal alien healthcare, as Newsom has been bragging about.

226
00:13:31,960 --> 00:13:36,880
Speaker 2: So it's a money laundering scheme. The medicaid money from

227
00:13:37,000 --> 00:13:41,320
Speaker 2: Washington is not supposed to go to illegal aliens, but

228
00:13:41,760 --> 00:13:45,319
Speaker 2: in California it goes into medical.

229
00:13:46,440 --> 00:13:47,040
Speaker 3: Same money.

230
00:13:47,679 --> 00:13:51,880
Speaker 2: It's laundered it's cleaned, it's blow dried, and now that

231
00:13:51,960 --> 00:13:55,120
Speaker 2: pays the illegal alien health care bills. You know how

232
00:13:55,200 --> 00:13:59,440
Speaker 2: much twelve billion last year, Over the last two years,

233
00:14:00,000 --> 00:14:05,960
Speaker 2: fifty three billion dollars, twenty three freaking billion dollars on

234
00:14:06,040 --> 00:14:11,240
Speaker 2: illegal alien healthcare just in this state. So much illegal

235
00:14:11,240 --> 00:14:14,160
Speaker 2: alien healthcare money, Newsom has been forced to cut other

236
00:14:14,240 --> 00:14:18,440
Speaker 2: programs to say we're out of money because it ended

237
00:14:18,520 --> 00:14:23,720
Speaker 2: up costing double what he claimed. Because two things about Newsom,

238
00:14:25,720 --> 00:14:29,360
Speaker 2: he can't do math, and he lies a lot. He

239
00:14:29,440 --> 00:14:34,239
Speaker 2: literally can't count. See, he always says he was dyslexic,

240
00:14:34,320 --> 00:14:38,720
Speaker 2: which means he has trouble reading. Really he has trouble counting.

241
00:14:39,520 --> 00:14:41,200
Speaker 2: I don't know what the word for that is. Is

242
00:14:41,280 --> 00:14:49,800
Speaker 2: there a word for math dyslexia. According to the California

243
00:14:49,800 --> 00:14:55,480
Speaker 2: Globe dot com Meghan Barth, California is one of eight

244
00:14:55,560 --> 00:14:59,920
Speaker 2: states that expanded their Medicaid programs to illegal alien healthcare.

245
00:15:00,640 --> 00:15:05,320
Speaker 2: They have implemented a budget gimmick. What they do is

246
00:15:05,400 --> 00:15:11,880
Speaker 2: they withdraw large amounts of federal funding and then they

247
00:15:12,840 --> 00:15:16,520
Speaker 2: move it through the system. Again, hard to explain on

248
00:15:16,560 --> 00:15:23,480
Speaker 2: the radio, but there are now seven hundred thousand illegal

249
00:15:23,520 --> 00:15:28,920
Speaker 2: aliens in this state. Getting medicaid, getting our tax money

250
00:15:28,960 --> 00:15:35,240
Speaker 2: for their medical bills. Twenty three billion dollars. Medical is broke,

251
00:15:35,280 --> 00:15:40,440
Speaker 2: by the way, it is, as they say, insolvent. They

252
00:15:40,480 --> 00:15:43,040
Speaker 2: blew so much money out of legal aliens in this state.

253
00:15:43,760 --> 00:15:48,240
Speaker 2: Gavin Newsom did that. The thing's broke. They're out of

254
00:15:48,240 --> 00:15:51,160
Speaker 2: state money, they're out of federal money. So if you

255
00:15:51,280 --> 00:15:56,400
Speaker 2: hear the talking wig or anybody else, call him. It's

256
00:15:56,480 --> 00:15:59,960
Speaker 2: against the law for illegal aliens to get a medical

257
00:16:00,480 --> 00:16:04,360
Speaker 2: or medicaid. No, no, they get it. They get it

258
00:16:04,360 --> 00:16:05,840
Speaker 2: to the tune of twenty three billion over the.

259
00:16:05,880 --> 00:16:07,920
Speaker 3: Last two years. That's a complete lot.

260
00:16:08,120 --> 00:16:11,600
Speaker 2: And so that's what the shutdown is about, and that's

261
00:16:11,680 --> 00:16:12,480
Speaker 2: worth shutdown.

262
00:16:13,400 --> 00:16:16,920
Speaker 8: The word you were looking for was dyscalcula, disccalcula.

263
00:16:17,680 --> 00:16:21,320
Speaker 2: So he's got dyslexia and dyscalcula, Newson does. That's a

264
00:16:21,360 --> 00:16:25,480
Speaker 2: new word. Thank you, you're welcome. I always like new words.

265
00:16:25,520 --> 00:16:29,560
Speaker 2: I got to use that discalcula. All these legislators have dyscalcula.

266
00:16:30,520 --> 00:16:32,120
Speaker 2: Debora Mark is, oh, will.

267
00:16:32,000 --> 00:16:32,600
Speaker 3: We come back?

268
00:16:33,520 --> 00:16:37,760
Speaker 2: A Sinelo cartel leader, one of the major drug cartel

269
00:16:37,800 --> 00:16:41,880
Speaker 2: leaders out of Mexico, admitted on CNN that Trump's border

270
00:16:41,920 --> 00:16:43,880
Speaker 2: crackdown is working.

271
00:16:45,560 --> 00:16:46,480
Speaker 3: Talk about it coming up.

272
00:16:47,480 --> 00:16:51,840
Speaker 5: You're listening to John Cobels on demand from KFI AM

273
00:16:51,840 --> 00:16:52,400

274
00:16:53,200 --> 00:16:55,840
Speaker 2: Our voiceline is eight seven seven Moist eighty six eight

275
00:16:55,960 --> 00:16:58,680
Speaker 2: seven seven Moist eighty six. You're using the talkback feature

276
00:16:58,720 --> 00:17:01,960
Speaker 2: on the iHeartRadio app. If you'd like to be on

277
00:17:02,000 --> 00:17:05,240
Speaker 2: the Moist line but you need inspiration, I would listen

278
00:17:05,320 --> 00:17:07,720
Speaker 2: to the first hour of our show on the podcast

279
00:17:07,720 --> 00:17:11,760
Speaker 2: today because we spent the whole hour on the California

280
00:17:11,800 --> 00:17:17,920
Speaker 2: insurance Commissioner known as Riccardo cal fart Lara. Riccardo Lara

281
00:17:18,520 --> 00:17:24,080
Speaker 2: has gone on dozens of taxpayer paid trips that have

282
00:17:24,240 --> 00:17:27,119
Speaker 2: nothing to do with insurance. He's the insurance commissioner the

283
00:17:27,200 --> 00:17:30,760
Speaker 2: insurance system here in California. Every one of us knows

284
00:17:30,800 --> 00:17:36,600
Speaker 2: this is a disaster, and he spends all his time traveling,

285
00:17:37,440 --> 00:17:40,520
Speaker 2: traveling and living the highest of high lives. I mean,

286
00:17:40,920 --> 00:17:44,159
Speaker 2: he's rivaling billionaires with the places he goes and the

287
00:17:44,200 --> 00:17:48,240
Speaker 2: money he spends. Even a two week safari in Africa,

288
00:17:49,280 --> 00:17:52,479
Speaker 2: yes that we paid for five star hotel rooms, and

289
00:17:52,520 --> 00:17:58,840
Speaker 2: he spends hundreds of thousands of dollars on private security

290
00:17:59,320 --> 00:18:03,960
Speaker 2: that follow them around all over the world private security

291
00:18:04,040 --> 00:18:07,200
Speaker 2: in addition to c HP security. We pay for all

292
00:18:07,200 --> 00:18:10,080
Speaker 2: of it. Because he thinks that somebody's out to get

293
00:18:10,119 --> 00:18:11,680
Speaker 2: a California Insurance commissioner.

294
00:18:11,760 --> 00:18:12,760
Speaker 3: I guess I don't know.

295
00:18:14,960 --> 00:18:15,040
Speaker 7: That.

296
00:18:15,359 --> 00:18:18,360
Speaker 2: And his defense, by the way, according to his spokespeople,

297
00:18:18,440 --> 00:18:19,840
Speaker 2: is well, he's gay.

298
00:18:21,119 --> 00:18:22,080
Speaker 3: I'm not making this up.

299
00:18:22,600 --> 00:18:25,280
Speaker 2: It's off an ABC seven report out of San Francisco.

300
00:18:27,200 --> 00:18:30,440
Speaker 2: And I should credit the name of the reporter because

301
00:18:30,440 --> 00:18:33,440
Speaker 2: she did, Stephanie Sierra. You got you got to listen

302
00:18:33,440 --> 00:18:35,760
Speaker 2: to the first hour of the show. You just must,

303
00:18:35,880 --> 00:18:39,000
Speaker 2: and that ABC seven report and all we analyze it,

304
00:18:39,280 --> 00:18:44,040
Speaker 2: you know, paragraph but paragraph. All right, Now, another great report,

305
00:18:44,119 --> 00:18:48,560
Speaker 2: this one done by see it in Similoa cartel, one

306
00:18:48,560 --> 00:18:52,280
Speaker 2: of the big most powerful, most deadly violent drug cartels

307
00:18:52,320 --> 00:18:56,560
Speaker 2: at a Mexico. And Trump said recently they're just going

308
00:18:56,600 --> 00:18:59,920
Speaker 2: to war with the drug cartels and people.

309
00:19:00,359 --> 00:19:03,160
Speaker 3: He's going to go to war. He can't do that Mexicans,

310
00:19:03,320 --> 00:19:05,200
Speaker 3: Mexican is one of our allies. You can't.

311
00:19:05,240 --> 00:19:10,360
Speaker 2: You can't well going to war. Shutting down the border. Oh,

312
00:19:10,400 --> 00:19:12,639
Speaker 2: you can't shut down the border. Shut down. It's not

313
00:19:12,680 --> 00:19:14,920
Speaker 2: gonna make a difference anyway. They're gonna get the drugs through.

314
00:19:14,960 --> 00:19:16,840
Speaker 2: You know I have tunnels, they'll do it by boat,

315
00:19:16,880 --> 00:19:18,800
Speaker 2: they'll fly it over. Shutting down the border is not

316
00:19:18,800 --> 00:19:21,280
Speaker 2: going to make a difference. Well, you know how i'd

317
00:19:21,280 --> 00:19:24,880
Speaker 2: go to to see if Trump shut down makes a difference.

318
00:19:25,200 --> 00:19:28,040
Speaker 2: I'd go to a guy who runs one of the cartels.

319
00:19:28,560 --> 00:19:33,000
Speaker 2: This guy is a leader of the Cineloa cartel. This

320
00:19:33,080 --> 00:19:39,720
Speaker 2: is Al Chappo's former gang, and Al Choppo, of course

321
00:19:39,800 --> 00:19:45,760
Speaker 2: is in prison. And he told the CNN reporter David

322
00:19:45,760 --> 00:19:48,200
Speaker 2: Culver they were sitting in the back of an suv.

323
00:19:49,720 --> 00:19:51,480
Speaker 1: That all the.

324
00:19:51,720 --> 00:19:57,440
Speaker 2: Drug policies and immigration policies have really caused the Cinela

325
00:19:57,480 --> 00:20:00,359
Speaker 2: cartell of problem. We're gonna play you a series of clips.

326
00:20:00,400 --> 00:20:01,680
Speaker 2: Let's start with cut number two.

327
00:20:02,200 --> 00:20:05,560
Speaker 9: For six months, we tracked hundreds of cartel recruitment posts

328
00:20:05,600 --> 00:20:12,400
Speaker 9: on social media, some aimed at learning teens, coded language

329
00:20:12,520 --> 00:20:19,480
Speaker 9: emojis and cash offers offerating thousands per pickup parking line

330
00:20:19,520 --> 00:20:23,320
Speaker 9: head deputies are going after the drivers. In the past

331
00:20:23,359 --> 00:20:26,240
Speaker 9: six months, the Justice Department reports four hundred and thirty

332
00:20:26,280 --> 00:20:30,800
Speaker 9: one people charged with smuggling in Arizona alone. Many recruited

333
00:20:30,800 --> 00:20:34,520
Speaker 9: online attorneys say most of their clients are between eighteen

334
00:20:34,560 --> 00:20:35,360
Speaker 9: and twenty.

335
00:20:35,080 --> 00:20:42,080
Speaker 2: Five American teens. The Mexican drug cartels are using social

336
00:20:42,119 --> 00:20:47,160
Speaker 2: media to recruit American teenagers to make thousands of dollars

337
00:20:47,440 --> 00:20:52,399
Speaker 2: smuggling drugs from Mexico to the US. Let's now go

338
00:20:52,440 --> 00:20:53,159
Speaker 2: to cut three.

339
00:20:53,320 --> 00:20:55,880
Speaker 9: We spend weeks trying to get a senior cartel leader

340
00:20:55,920 --> 00:20:59,399
Speaker 9: to speak with us. He finally agrees, meeting us in

341
00:20:59,400 --> 00:21:03,920
Speaker 9: a Phoenix parking lot. World with the Tapebola, the Cinelowa

342
00:21:03,960 --> 00:21:08,199
Speaker 9: carts out from killing to coordinating smuggling operations.

343
00:21:08,640 --> 00:21:12,280
Speaker 3: He says he's done it all. Do you help in

344
00:21:12,640 --> 00:21:14,399
Speaker 3: bringing people drugs.

345
00:21:14,040 --> 00:21:18,240
Speaker 4: And wounds people and drugs? Are you a citizen here?

346
00:21:18,440 --> 00:21:18,480
Speaker 8: No?

347
00:21:19,640 --> 00:21:21,320
Speaker 9: And so you're able to still come in and out

348
00:21:23,520 --> 00:21:28,119
Speaker 9: among those helping with transportation US citizens. You all are

349
00:21:28,240 --> 00:21:32,000
Speaker 9: using social media to get to young people, young teams

350
00:21:32,280 --> 00:21:33,800
Speaker 9: and recruiting them to be part of it.

351
00:21:34,280 --> 00:21:37,240
Speaker 3: And some of them, many of them are American citizens too.

352
00:21:39,480 --> 00:21:40,240
Speaker 3: That's life.

353
00:21:41,680 --> 00:21:42,240
Speaker 7: That you know.

354
00:21:42,880 --> 00:21:45,800
Speaker 9: So even even though they may get caught and spend

355
00:21:45,840 --> 00:21:48,760
Speaker 9: many years in prison, that's their fault. As you see

356
00:21:50,200 --> 00:21:54,480
Speaker 9: when you see, for example, the impact of violence and

357
00:21:54,560 --> 00:21:59,359
Speaker 9: everything that is caused from the cartel movements from essentially

358
00:21:59,440 --> 00:22:03,760
Speaker 9: your employee, do you feel that you're part of this problem.

359
00:22:05,280 --> 00:22:08,600
Speaker 4: Yeah, you know, because I go to you, you know,

360
00:22:08,760 --> 00:22:11,359
Speaker 4: family when they want to kill you.

361
00:22:11,520 --> 00:22:12,199
Speaker 1: You when you.

362
00:22:12,320 --> 00:22:14,840
Speaker 9: Defend so you see it as defending yourself.

363
00:22:14,960 --> 00:22:17,919
Speaker 4: Yes, that's what I say. I don't I don't like problet.

364
00:22:18,359 --> 00:22:20,920
Speaker 4: You have something to run to me? I do something

365
00:22:21,320 --> 00:22:21,879
Speaker 4: bad to you.

366
00:22:22,720 --> 00:22:25,720
Speaker 9: I'm not so subtle threat. And yet he seems to

367
00:22:25,800 --> 00:22:28,560
Speaker 9: regret some of his own life choices. What is your

368
00:22:28,600 --> 00:22:30,080
Speaker 9: motivation for wanting to talk?

369
00:22:30,240 --> 00:22:31,440
Speaker 4: Why I come to you?

370
00:22:31,680 --> 00:22:32,920
Speaker 3: Exactly one?

371
00:22:33,000 --> 00:22:36,600
Speaker 4: People listen and I tell him it's not a life.

372
00:22:36,680 --> 00:22:38,600
Speaker 4: It's not a good you know, it's not good.

373
00:22:38,720 --> 00:22:41,200
Speaker 3: It's not Have you had to kill people?

374
00:22:42,080 --> 00:22:42,280
Speaker 4: Yeah?

375
00:22:42,720 --> 00:22:45,800
Speaker 3: Now you're fustom And does that not weigh on you?

376
00:22:48,440 --> 00:22:50,240
Speaker 4: Because I'm not bad. I'm not bad pressure.

377
00:22:51,119 --> 00:22:52,280
Speaker 3: You don't think you're a bad person.

378
00:22:52,520 --> 00:22:56,159
Speaker 4: I'm I do that I have before that you have

379
00:22:56,359 --> 00:22:56,520
Speaker 4: to do.

380
00:22:57,800 --> 00:22:59,480
Speaker 3: Why do you say you do what you have to do?

381
00:23:00,000 --> 00:23:01,159
Speaker 9: Couldn't you stop doing this?

382
00:23:02,800 --> 00:23:03,200
Speaker 4: You can't.

383
00:23:07,040 --> 00:23:09,119
Speaker 9: Once you get in, you can't get out. Do you

384
00:23:09,359 --> 00:23:12,520
Speaker 9: think what President Trump has been doing has been making

385
00:23:12,600 --> 00:23:13,440
Speaker 9: your job tougher?

386
00:23:13,680 --> 00:23:16,320
Speaker 4: Oh? Yeah, yes, but.

387
00:23:16,400 --> 00:23:17,920
Speaker 9: It's becoming more difficult, you think.

388
00:23:18,600 --> 00:23:22,240
Speaker 2: Yeah, he's dressed in a black mask, sunglasses, black gloves,

389
00:23:22,280 --> 00:23:24,639
Speaker 2: and a hat to conceal his identity, and obviously they

390
00:23:24,720 --> 00:23:28,600
Speaker 2: distorted his voice, but he said flat out that, yeah,

391
00:23:28,640 --> 00:23:33,800
Speaker 2: Trump has made it much more difficult, and he's trying

392
00:23:33,840 --> 00:23:36,720
Speaker 2: to warn these teenage kids this is not a life.

393
00:23:36,760 --> 00:23:38,600
Speaker 2: It's not good. Once you get in, you can't get out.

394
00:23:39,520 --> 00:23:41,640
Speaker 2: He still thinks he's a good person, even though he's

395
00:23:41,720 --> 00:23:45,840
Speaker 2: killed a lot of people. Everybody always thinks they're a

396
00:23:45,880 --> 00:23:48,480
Speaker 2: good person. What is that if you've killed a lot

397
00:23:48,520 --> 00:23:50,600
Speaker 2: of people, No, you're not a good person.

398
00:23:51,280 --> 00:23:54,720
Speaker 3: Why why can't you own up to that? Once that

399
00:23:54,840 --> 00:23:56,760
Speaker 3: so hard you're willing to shoot people in the head,

400
00:23:57,320 --> 00:24:01,359
Speaker 3: just say yeah, I'm a bad guy. Out all right?

401
00:24:01,600 --> 00:24:06,280
Speaker 3: Got one more clip here and play cut number four.

402
00:24:06,359 --> 00:24:10,120
Speaker 9: This is sure going back to late last year when

403
00:24:10,160 --> 00:24:13,119
Speaker 9: we were last here, you would have never seen this

404
00:24:13,359 --> 00:24:18,440
Speaker 9: many border patrol focused on four individuals. Most of that

405
00:24:18,640 --> 00:24:22,399
Speaker 9: was because they simply didn't have the bandwidth with fewer

406
00:24:22,520 --> 00:24:26,600
Speaker 9: migrants crossing agents say they can finally focus on enforcement.

407
00:24:27,320 --> 00:24:31,080
Speaker 9: As for local deputies, they press ahead, you got some

408
00:24:31,160 --> 00:24:34,720
Speaker 9: pending charges, alright, not so much targeting the migrants, but

409
00:24:34,920 --> 00:24:38,640
Speaker 9: rather those who they're paying to cross illegally. 're gonna

410
00:24:38,640 --> 00:24:43,600
Speaker 9: be charged with criminal syndicate, a criminal enterprise that they

411
00:24:43,760 --> 00:24:49,320
Speaker 9: warn is growing increasingly desperate. John, you heard that cartel

412
00:24:49,359 --> 00:24:52,399
Speaker 9: boss say that his job is getting tougher. And because

413
00:24:52,400 --> 00:24:56,040
Speaker 9: of that, official say, cartels are now charging much more

414
00:24:56,080 --> 00:24:59,360
Speaker 9: to get migrants across. It's jumped from about sixty five

415
00:24:59,440 --> 00:25:01,879
Speaker 9: hundred dollars a person that they were charging earlier this

416
00:25:02,000 --> 00:25:04,480
Speaker 9: year to now nearly ten thousand.

417
00:25:04,200 --> 00:25:06,640
Speaker 3: Dollars that they're charging. According to the deputies.

418
00:25:07,359 --> 00:25:09,440
Speaker 9: A lot of migrants simply cannot afford that, and so

419
00:25:09,560 --> 00:25:12,440
Speaker 9: deputies say roughly a third who have crossed through co

420
00:25:12,640 --> 00:25:15,600
Speaker 9: Cheese County alone admit to them that they still owe

421
00:25:15,640 --> 00:25:19,320
Speaker 9: the cartels. It's something they call migrant debt. Some are

422
00:25:19,440 --> 00:25:22,560
Speaker 9: essentially put on cartel payment plans. Others are forced to

423
00:25:22,680 --> 00:25:24,960
Speaker 9: work for the cartels in some capacity so as to

424
00:25:25,000 --> 00:25:25,800
Speaker 9: pay down that debt.

425
00:25:26,280 --> 00:25:30,320
Speaker 2: Yeah, and we were helping finance this with our open borders.

426
00:25:30,640 --> 00:25:35,440
Speaker 2: We were funding these drug cartels, turning these people into

427
00:25:35,560 --> 00:25:38,679
Speaker 2: slaves everybody. So while they come here, they're hard working,

428
00:25:38,800 --> 00:25:41,440
Speaker 2: they just want work. The money was going to the

429
00:25:41,520 --> 00:25:45,240
Speaker 2: drug cartels, whatever they were earning at the factory or

430
00:25:45,280 --> 00:25:50,239
Speaker 2: out in the fields or or you know, working at

431
00:25:50,240 --> 00:25:53,000
Speaker 2: the car wash, that might as going to the drug cartels. Guys,

432
00:25:53,040 --> 00:25:55,240
Speaker 2: you run the drug car twels are worth billions of dollars,

433
00:25:55,720 --> 00:25:59,480
Speaker 2: and that that's from us. That's from US hiring and

434
00:25:59,680 --> 00:26:04,400
Speaker 2: using all this illegal alien labor. This whole southern California

435
00:26:04,920 --> 00:26:10,040
Speaker 2: was a slave labor haven. The people and the companies

436
00:26:10,080 --> 00:26:14,280
Speaker 2: here would pay the slave wages, and then the illegal

437
00:26:14,320 --> 00:26:17,520
Speaker 2: aliens wouldn't even get to keep much of it. It

438
00:26:17,640 --> 00:26:21,720
Speaker 2: had to be turned over to the drug cartels that smuggled.

439
00:26:23,560 --> 00:26:24,159
Speaker 3: More coming up.

440
00:26:25,000 --> 00:26:29,879

Speaker 1: And I was not.

451
00:26:55,920 --> 00:26:57,640
Speaker 3: I didn't do a silly dance. I was going to say,

452
00:26:57,640 --> 00:26:58,280
Speaker 3: were you dancing.

453
00:26:58,480 --> 00:27:02,480

Speaker 2: that too.

456
00:27:07,760 --> 00:27:07,879
Speaker 1: Uh.

457
00:27:08,840 --> 00:27:10,120
Speaker 3: Coming up after three o'clock.

458
00:27:11,520 --> 00:27:15,720
Speaker 2: The people in Altadena are so angry because La County

459
00:27:16,000 --> 00:27:20,119
Speaker 2: released its after action report on their fire and there

460
00:27:20,200 --> 00:27:23,040
Speaker 2: was nobody to blame. They don't believe that. And we're

461
00:27:23,040 --> 00:27:26,520
Speaker 2: going to have two women from two different groups, Shawna

462
00:27:26,600 --> 00:27:30,320
Speaker 2: Dawson Beer and Lauren Randolph. They want the Attorney General

463
00:27:30,400 --> 00:27:33,399
Speaker 2: Rob Bota to do a full investigation because the county

464
00:27:33,640 --> 00:27:37,159
Speaker 2: is lying and covering up. That was the biggest whitewash

465
00:27:37,400 --> 00:27:39,320
Speaker 2: I've ever seen in my life. Now, we've had a

466
00:27:39,440 --> 00:27:42,040
Speaker 2: very intense show today, so I thought I had something

467
00:27:42,080 --> 00:27:47,040
Speaker 2: to do, something more lighthearted. Oh good, a story on

468
00:27:47,280 --> 00:27:51,719
Speaker 2: how Deborah's brain is aging and decaying rapidly.

469
00:27:51,800 --> 00:27:53,520
Speaker 10: Wait what we're turning this on to me?

470
00:27:54,440 --> 00:27:55,600
Speaker 3: Oh yeah, yeah, No.

471
00:27:56,240 --> 00:27:59,200
Speaker 2: I've read this outline of the study and I just

472
00:27:59,320 --> 00:28:01,399
Speaker 2: keep thinking, Wow, Wow, she's in trouble.

473
00:28:01,520 --> 00:28:02,400
Speaker 3: This is bad.

474
00:28:03,760 --> 00:28:08,040
Speaker 2: Poor sleep can aide your brain. They looked at twenty

475
00:28:08,119 --> 00:28:12,800
Speaker 2: seven thousand adults and found those were poor sleep habits

476
00:28:12,880 --> 00:28:15,920
Speaker 2: had brain that looked older when they did a scan.

477
00:28:20,040 --> 00:28:24,239
Speaker 2: They analyzed that over a thousand different brain features, there

478
00:28:24,320 --> 00:28:27,600
Speaker 2: are five sleep habits that protect your brain. Okay, let's

479
00:28:27,600 --> 00:28:32,240
Speaker 2: see how you score here being an early bird rather

480
00:28:32,320 --> 00:28:36,359
Speaker 2: than a night owl. Yes, okay, all right, well you

481
00:28:36,440 --> 00:28:39,720
Speaker 2: got one point getting seven to eight hours of sleep

482
00:28:39,840 --> 00:28:40,239
Speaker 2: every night.

483
00:28:40,400 --> 00:28:41,240
Speaker 3: That would be a negative.

484
00:28:41,360 --> 00:28:46,959
Speaker 2: That would be a negative. Rarely experiencing insomnia a lot

485
00:28:47,000 --> 00:28:52,280
Speaker 2: of insomnia, then, okay. Not feeling excessively sleepy.

486
00:28:52,000 --> 00:28:52,479
Speaker 4: During the day.

487
00:28:52,560 --> 00:28:54,400
Speaker 3: Well, well, I yawned a million times.

488
00:28:54,520 --> 00:28:59,400
Speaker 2: I know, I know, I'm always inspired to look over

489
00:29:00,840 --> 00:29:01,360
Speaker 2: your camera.

490
00:29:01,520 --> 00:29:02,040
Speaker 3: I'm bored.

491
00:29:02,120 --> 00:29:02,960
Speaker 10: I'm just sleepy.

492
00:29:04,600 --> 00:29:06,959
Speaker 3: I wish I could get screenshots of this video thing.

493
00:29:07,240 --> 00:29:10,680
Speaker 3: And I like the person embarrassed twenty five different yawns

494
00:29:10,840 --> 00:29:14,520
Speaker 3: just during the show. And so you, uh, not snoring?

495
00:29:14,760 --> 00:29:15,920
Speaker 3: I don't, you don't.

496
00:29:15,920 --> 00:29:16,280
Speaker 1: How do you know?

497
00:29:16,640 --> 00:29:17,320
Speaker 4: I don't.

498
00:29:19,000 --> 00:29:22,000
Speaker 3: Girls don't. Girls don't fart, They don't snore exactly that

499
00:29:22,200 --> 00:29:25,400
Speaker 3: I don't. I don't snore. I really don't. Well, I mean,

500
00:29:25,440 --> 00:29:25,960
Speaker 3: how would you know?

501
00:29:26,120 --> 00:29:28,080
Speaker 10: Because I have a husband who sleeps next to me.

502
00:29:28,200 --> 00:29:29,600
Speaker 3: And he doesn't doesn't complain.

503
00:29:29,760 --> 00:29:32,360
Speaker 10: No, I've asked him before. I think when I have

504
00:29:32,440 --> 00:29:34,760
Speaker 10: a cold, he says, I make noises, But that's you

505
00:29:34,840 --> 00:29:38,040
Speaker 10: know that, that's I can't help that noises.

506
00:29:39,360 --> 00:29:41,600
Speaker 3: I'm not going to say I snore. I'm sure you

507
00:29:41,680 --> 00:29:44,120
Speaker 3: make a lot of noises, all right, so we'll give

508
00:29:44,120 --> 00:29:44,560
Speaker 3: you a three.

509
00:29:45,720 --> 00:29:47,640
Speaker 1: Uh uh.

510
00:29:47,960 --> 00:29:51,520
Speaker 2: It's healthy sleep is if you have scored four or

511
00:29:51,680 --> 00:29:58,920
Speaker 2: five out of five uh uh, three percent had poor

512
00:29:59,040 --> 00:30:01,960
Speaker 2: sleep with one or zero healthy habits. You're right on

513
00:30:02,040 --> 00:30:02,760
Speaker 2: the borderline there.

514
00:30:02,800 --> 00:30:03,760
Speaker 3: I have healthy habits.

515
00:30:04,560 --> 00:30:04,760
Speaker 7: Well.

516
00:30:04,880 --> 00:30:08,280
Speaker 3: No, no, all the all these sleep problems are not healthy. No,

517
00:30:08,440 --> 00:30:11,320
Speaker 3: but I have other I thought it was talking about.

518
00:30:12,120 --> 00:30:12,560
Speaker 4: No, no, no.

519
00:30:13,600 --> 00:30:16,760
Speaker 2: Eating vegetation is not going to undo the damage caused

520
00:30:16,840 --> 00:30:18,040
Speaker 2: by the left lack of sleep.

521
00:30:18,160 --> 00:30:18,920
Speaker 3: I exercise it.

522
00:30:19,680 --> 00:30:23,040
Speaker 2: For every single point decrease in the healthy sleep score,

523
00:30:23,120 --> 00:30:26,400
Speaker 2: the gap between brain age and actual age grew by

524
00:30:26,480 --> 00:30:31,840
Speaker 2: about half a year, So bad sleep could aide your

525
00:30:31,880 --> 00:30:34,280
Speaker 2: brain by an extra couple of years, which brings you know,

526
00:30:34,400 --> 00:30:42,360
Speaker 2: the dementia on dementia on early it. Here's what happens. Shrinkage.

527
00:30:43,120 --> 00:30:48,160
Speaker 2: Your brain shrinks every day, every day you're waking up,

528
00:30:48,200 --> 00:30:51,080
Speaker 2: it's a little smaller. Yeah, you got my attention. With shrinkage,

529
00:30:54,360 --> 00:30:59,720
Speaker 2: thinning of the brain's outer layer, your hippocampus has reduced

530
00:30:59,880 --> 00:31:01,959
Speaker 2: l Have you checked your hippopa.

531
00:31:02,200 --> 00:31:03,840
Speaker 3: I haven't, not recently.

532
00:31:04,640 --> 00:31:08,280
Speaker 2: You better check it, but might be down a deterioration

533
00:31:08,440 --> 00:31:13,720
Speaker 2: of white matter that helps the different brain regions communicate.

534
00:31:15,560 --> 00:31:17,440
Speaker 3: I think I'm going to go get an MRI. So

535
00:31:17,640 --> 00:31:20,000
Speaker 3: maybe when you can't come up with a word and

536
00:31:20,120 --> 00:31:22,160
Speaker 3: that happens, you know that happened, Well you had a

537
00:31:22,200 --> 00:31:25,120
Speaker 3: doozy just a little while. Can't go ahead, John, I

538
00:31:25,160 --> 00:31:26,360
Speaker 3: can tell yeh sure.

539
00:31:26,240 --> 00:31:31,000
Speaker 2: All right, Eric was there. Deborah didn't remember that Africa

540
00:31:31,160 --> 00:31:31,760
Speaker 2: was a continent.

541
00:31:31,840 --> 00:31:33,800
Speaker 10: Well, it's not that I didn't remember. We were talking

542
00:31:33,840 --> 00:31:36,960
Speaker 10: about the Safari and Eric was talking about Tanzania and

543
00:31:37,080 --> 00:31:40,040
Speaker 10: Kenya and I said, that's in Africa. And I kept

544
00:31:40,080 --> 00:31:42,280
Speaker 10: saying that and he said, I know, but those are

545
00:31:42,440 --> 00:31:45,000
Speaker 10: countries and I said, no, not what happened, That's not

546
00:31:45,080 --> 00:31:46,360
Speaker 10: what I see that I don't even remember.

547
00:31:47,080 --> 00:31:49,720
Speaker 8: John was describing the Safari. He went on in Kenya

548
00:31:49,800 --> 00:31:52,800
Speaker 8: and Tanzania, and I said, oh, the Safari crossed the

549
00:31:52,840 --> 00:31:55,160
Speaker 8: border into a different country. And he was like, yeah,

550
00:31:55,200 --> 00:31:56,600
Speaker 8: it's part of the whole We booked it through a

551
00:31:56,640 --> 00:31:58,760
Speaker 8: travel thing, blah blah blah. And then you were like,

552
00:31:59,440 --> 00:32:02,480
Speaker 8: wasn't it in Africa? How's it two different countries. Yeah,

553
00:32:03,200 --> 00:32:06,320
Speaker 8: well Kenya and Tanzania are two different countries.

554
00:32:06,560 --> 00:32:06,920
Speaker 1: Totally.

555
00:32:07,920 --> 00:32:10,960
Speaker 10: Yes, I add Africa as a country on my brain.

556
00:32:11,560 --> 00:32:15,320
Speaker 10: Did not even think, did not even think about what happened,

557
00:32:16,240 --> 00:32:19,800
Speaker 10: thank you. Now, okay, that should also prove your point, John,

558
00:32:19,880 --> 00:32:22,480
Speaker 10: because I can't even remember something that happened an hour

559
00:32:22,520 --> 00:32:23,080
Speaker 10: and a half ago.

560
00:32:23,320 --> 00:32:26,560
Speaker 2: Correctly, you not only messed up Africa and the two countries,

561
00:32:26,600 --> 00:32:28,600
Speaker 2: they you mixed up remembering it an hour ago.

562
00:32:28,960 --> 00:32:30,640
Speaker 3: All right, well, there you go, get some sleep.

563
00:32:30,720 --> 00:32:30,800
Speaker 8: There.

564
00:32:31,880 --> 00:32:32,920
Speaker 3: I am in desperate need.

Speaker 10: Uh Can I get some propofile please?

00:32:42,600 --> 00:32:45,480
Speaker 2: when we come back. People in Altadena there's there's a

568
00:32:45,600 --> 00:32:50,760

569
00:32:50,880 --> 00:32:55,440
Speaker 2: County's fake after action report on the Altadena fire, which

570
00:32:55,600 --> 00:32:56,560
Speaker 2: blamed nobody.

571
00:32:56,880 --> 00:32:58,280
Speaker 3: It was nobody's fault.

572
00:32:58,160 --> 00:33:02,760
Speaker 2: For the bad RESI spons for the lack of warnings
