She was alone. 9 00:00:25,480 --> 00:00:28,319 Speaker 2: I did because Eric was in his little box and 10 00:00:28,360 --> 00:00:30,120 Speaker 2: I was in mine. And you know you at least 11 00:00:30,120 --> 00:00:30,720 Speaker 2: come and visit. 12 00:00:31,040 --> 00:00:33,400 Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, so you were in isolation. 13 00:00:33,640 --> 00:00:35,600 Speaker 2: It was so lonely here yesterday. 14 00:00:36,000 --> 00:00:38,960 Speaker 1: Solitary confinement totally.

You know, we're on every 18 00:00:50,760 --> 00:00:55,200 Speaker 1: day from one to four, excluding holidays, and the shows. 19 00:00:54,960 --> 00:00:55,680 Speaker 2: Are still here. 20 00:00:56,720 --> 00:01:00,360 Speaker 1: Well, I was here, best of Well is that what 21 00:01:00,360 --> 00:01:01,880 Speaker 1: they call it? Yeah? 22 00:01:02,200 --> 00:01:03,480 Speaker 2: I didn't think it was the best of. 23 00:01:03,680 --> 00:01:10,840 Speaker 1: But and you wonder why you're in isolation? And why 24 00:01:10,880 --> 00:01:12,720 Speaker 1: I don't show up at a hospital, don't come visit you? 25 00:01:12,720 --> 00:01:13,920 Speaker 1: You're talking about him on my work. 26 00:01:15,000 --> 00:01:15,639 Speaker 2: I'm sorry. 27 00:01:15,720 --> 00:01:20,640 Speaker 1: That was Eric's decision. Everything selected was Eric. Yeah, all right, Well, 28 00:01:20,680 --> 00:01:23,080 Speaker 1: now you've made that, you've you've made no friends so far. 29 00:01:23,360 --> 00:01:25,000 Speaker 2: You know what I'm used to that we're only. 30 00:01:24,880 --> 00:01:27,760 Speaker 1: Two minutes in. Uh. Anyway, we're on from one to 31 00:01:27,760 --> 00:01:30,319 Speaker 1: four after four o'clock John Cobelt Show on demand on 32 00:01:30,360 --> 00:01:33,120 Speaker 1: the iHeart app and you could listen to what you missed. 33 00:01:33,480 --> 00:01:36,720 Speaker 1: Apparently the most exciting thing to happen over the weekend 34 00:01:37,319 --> 00:01:41,679 Speaker 1: was this, uh, this mob that went berserk in downtown 35 00:01:41,760 --> 00:01:47,840 Speaker 1: Los Angeles. That thousand people early Sunday morning, A thousand 36 00:01:47,880 --> 00:01:54,200 Speaker 1: people in downtown a la uh dandalizing and according to 37 00:01:54,320 --> 00:01:59,360 Speaker 1: Karen Bass, it was just pandemonium. Everybody just you know 38 00:01:59,720 --> 00:02:07,320 Speaker 1: what berserk? And why would that be? Karen? It's because 39 00:02:07,320 --> 00:02:10,480 Speaker 1: they know there's no consequences. You can go. A thousand 40 00:02:10,560 --> 00:02:15,399 Speaker 1: people could decide, you know, they must have transmitted messages 41 00:02:15,600 --> 00:02:19,760 Speaker 1: online to call the group together, Hey let's go riot 42 00:02:19,800 --> 00:02:23,800 Speaker 1: downtown Saturday night. Because what are they gonna do? What's 43 00:02:23,840 --> 00:02:28,000 Speaker 1: Karen Bask gonna do? She's asleep and you know the 44 00:02:28,000 --> 00:02:31,000 Speaker 1: way she was asleep for much of the fire. She's 45 00:02:31,080 --> 00:02:33,960 Speaker 1: not gonna do anything. But two days later she'll issue 46 00:02:33,960 --> 00:02:37,240 Speaker 1: a statement that she's outraged. She'll stick her head in 47 00:02:37,240 --> 00:02:40,040 Speaker 1: front of a camera saying she's shocked at all this 48 00:02:40,480 --> 00:02:44,560 Speaker 1: two days later. But there is no sense among most 49 00:02:44,600 --> 00:02:48,040 Speaker 1: of the riff raff in Los Angeles that there are 50 00:02:48,080 --> 00:02:52,600 Speaker 1: any consequences to acting violently and acting violently as a mob. 51 00:02:54,440 --> 00:02:59,040 Speaker 1: They had a briefing yesterday with Jim McDonald, the police chief. 52 00:03:00,680 --> 00:03:05,240 Speaker 1: She wanted to know why no arrests were made. Arrests 53 00:03:05,280 --> 00:03:09,880 Speaker 1: are never made for mobs that go crazy, like during 54 00:03:09,919 --> 00:03:13,280 Speaker 1: the George Floyd riots. There weren't many arrests compared to 55 00:03:13,320 --> 00:03:16,560 Speaker 1: the number of people that were protesting or if that's 56 00:03:16,560 --> 00:03:19,480 Speaker 1: what you want to call what they were doing. How 57 00:03:19,520 --> 00:03:21,720 Speaker 1: many protests do we have in LA? They shut down 58 00:03:22,080 --> 00:03:25,440 Speaker 1: the one on one frequently, they shut down all the 59 00:03:25,480 --> 00:03:31,480 Speaker 1: major downtown roads. Nobody ever gets arrested. It's legal to 60 00:03:31,560 --> 00:03:35,960 Speaker 1: do this stuff in practice, so you get the Channel 61 00:03:36,000 --> 00:03:40,000 Speaker 1: seven rights. The mayhem has prompted a strong rebuke from Bass. 62 00:03:42,120 --> 00:03:47,120 Speaker 1: Oh wow, a strong rebuke. Well that'll teach everybody. That'll 63 00:03:47,120 --> 00:03:49,840 Speaker 1: put them in their place. Can you imagine how terrified 64 00:03:49,880 --> 00:03:52,760 Speaker 1: all these thugs and goons are that they were strongly 65 00:03:52,800 --> 00:03:59,640 Speaker 1: rebuked by the mayor. She says, it is unacceptable under 66 00:03:59,760 --> 00:04:03,640 Speaker 1: any in all circumstances, and those people that perpetuated this 67 00:04:03,920 --> 00:04:06,440 Speaker 1: have to be held accountable to the fullest extent of 68 00:04:06,440 --> 00:04:11,000 Speaker 1: the law. Even if you did, it wouldn't be much 69 00:04:11,040 --> 00:04:13,800 Speaker 1: of a con It wouldn't be much of a consequence 70 00:04:14,160 --> 00:04:20,200 Speaker 1: because your fellow travelers in Sacramento have completely destroyed the 71 00:04:20,279 --> 00:04:23,200 Speaker 1: legal system. So none of these people are going to 72 00:04:23,240 --> 00:04:24,920 Speaker 1: go to jail for any length of time. In fact, 73 00:04:25,360 --> 00:04:28,080 Speaker 1: I would say nearly all of them will never see jail. 74 00:04:28,400 --> 00:04:31,000 Speaker 1: Most of them will never be arrested, and if they're arrested, 75 00:04:31,360 --> 00:04:37,200 Speaker 1: they'll get a citation. It'll be a misdemeanor. Nobody goes 76 00:04:37,240 --> 00:04:40,960 Speaker 1: to jails, goes to jail for misdemeanors. We're gonna be told, well, 77 00:04:41,000 --> 00:04:44,920 Speaker 1: we couldn't identify on the videos. That's what Jim McDonald 78 00:04:44,960 --> 00:04:49,320 Speaker 1: says he's doing. They're looking at the video. Has anybody 79 00:04:49,360 --> 00:04:52,000 Speaker 1: been arrested off a video? I don't know about this case. 80 00:04:52,040 --> 00:04:54,320 Speaker 1: I've studied the videos, but most of the time everybody 81 00:04:54,320 --> 00:04:58,760 Speaker 1: shows up in the dark wearing hoodies. Some guy was 82 00:04:58,839 --> 00:05:04,600 Speaker 1: fire breathing. Did you uh God? I found the story 83 00:05:04,680 --> 00:05:08,360 Speaker 1: that came from right after this happened, and I love 84 00:05:08,400 --> 00:05:09,800 Speaker 1: the La Times. You know, A part of it is 85 00:05:09,839 --> 00:05:13,479 Speaker 1: the media is just a bunch of sissies. It's unclear 86 00:05:13,920 --> 00:05:18,400 Speaker 1: why dozens of people converged at the intersection to Washington 87 00:05:18,600 --> 00:05:22,640 Speaker 1: in Maple. This is by Matthew or Ormseth. It's unclear. No, 88 00:05:23,160 --> 00:05:27,520 Speaker 1: it's it's clear. They wanted a riot because it's fun 89 00:05:27,560 --> 00:05:30,480 Speaker 1: to riot. You get drunk, you get high, you get crazy, 90 00:05:30,800 --> 00:05:34,320 Speaker 1: and you start doing damage. Gets all the testosterone going. 91 00:05:34,880 --> 00:05:36,799 Speaker 1: You know, it's a it's a night out with your buddies, 92 00:05:37,080 --> 00:05:39,880 Speaker 1: you make new friends. Just keep sitting on your phone, 93 00:05:39,920 --> 00:05:42,440 Speaker 1: scrolling and see where this night's riot is going to 94 00:05:42,520 --> 00:05:48,720 Speaker 1: take place. Some were dressed to party, wearing pink platform 95 00:05:48,760 --> 00:05:53,839 Speaker 1: heels and cat ears. Were you there? I missed it. 96 00:05:54,800 --> 00:05:55,960 Speaker 2: I was busy that night. 97 00:05:56,360 --> 00:05:59,039 Speaker 1: A man gulped from a jug filled with a flammable 98 00:05:59,080 --> 00:06:04,080 Speaker 1: wicket with from filled with a flammable liquid, and he 99 00:06:04,320 --> 00:06:07,919 Speaker 1: spat it onto a torch, throwing flames into the night sky. 100 00:06:08,000 --> 00:06:11,520 Speaker 1: How far did this guy spit? Really? He spit on 101 00:06:11,560 --> 00:06:15,880 Speaker 1: a torch and flames went soaring into the light. Wow, 102 00:06:15,960 --> 00:06:19,960 Speaker 1: that's a that's the helves of a spit. Guy with 103 00:06:20,000 --> 00:06:23,039 Speaker 1: a leather jacket clambered up a light pole, his feet 104 00:06:23,080 --> 00:06:25,080 Speaker 1: perched on a street sign. He should have been shot 105 00:06:25,120 --> 00:06:27,039 Speaker 1: off the light pole. You know when the police start 106 00:06:27,080 --> 00:06:29,920 Speaker 1: doing that, when they start getting a sniper for us 107 00:06:29,920 --> 00:06:33,599 Speaker 1: out and then picking these guys off bad, that'll into mayhem. 108 00:06:33,960 --> 00:06:36,720 Speaker 1: He pulled out his phone and appeared to record himself 109 00:06:36,760 --> 00:06:40,599 Speaker 1: talking to the camera. Isn't that great a selfie video? 110 00:06:42,400 --> 00:06:45,719 Speaker 1: Standing on a street sign, climbing up a light pole? 111 00:06:47,080 --> 00:06:50,960 Speaker 1: This but these these are genius graduates from the Los 112 00:06:51,000 --> 00:06:55,360 Speaker 1: Angeles Public school system. Then the mob, and again there 113 00:06:55,360 --> 00:06:58,560 Speaker 1: was over a thousand people. They their attention turned to 114 00:06:58,600 --> 00:07:03,120 Speaker 1: an a train which had stopped along Washington Boulevard. Here's 115 00:07:03,160 --> 00:07:05,880 Speaker 1: a good reason to take a metro chaining, huh? According 116 00:07:05,920 --> 00:07:09,440 Speaker 1: to the video, vandals within the crowd began spray painting 117 00:07:09,440 --> 00:07:12,080 Speaker 1: the train and hammering on the windows. Can you imagine 118 00:07:12,080 --> 00:07:16,920 Speaker 1: being inside of that as the train makes a stop 119 00:07:18,000 --> 00:07:21,680 Speaker 1: and you've got a thousand people banging on the windows. 120 00:07:22,800 --> 00:07:26,920 Speaker 1: The LAPD was alerted at twelve to twelve am five 121 00:07:26,960 --> 00:07:29,960 Speaker 1: people entered a train car and were vandalizing the interior. 122 00:07:30,960 --> 00:07:34,320 Speaker 1: Dozens of LAPD offers massed in a skirmish line across 123 00:07:34,320 --> 00:07:38,320 Speaker 1: the street, and they had their riot guns firing foam rounds. 124 00:07:38,640 --> 00:07:42,200 Speaker 1: Why foam rounds? How about a few real rounds like, 125 00:07:42,280 --> 00:07:44,320 Speaker 1: I don't know one out of every ten a real round. 126 00:07:44,640 --> 00:07:49,600 Speaker 1: Let's play roulette with these guys, see what happens. And 127 00:07:49,640 --> 00:07:53,400 Speaker 1: then there was a call of people being disruptive on 128 00:07:53,800 --> 00:07:58,360 Speaker 1: another train. Some in the crowd posed for selfies next 129 00:07:58,400 --> 00:08:04,720 Speaker 1: to a spray painted APD cruiser. Look at that. They 130 00:08:04,760 --> 00:08:09,080 Speaker 1: don't know if anybody got arrested. The crowd was spray 131 00:08:09,120 --> 00:08:12,280 Speaker 1: painting the facades of a Panda Express, a waba grill, 132 00:08:12,600 --> 00:08:17,480 Speaker 1: a dialysis center, and a medical clinic. Total savages, just 133 00:08:17,560 --> 00:08:21,760 Speaker 1: complete savage behavior. This is like animals coming out of 134 00:08:21,760 --> 00:08:25,840 Speaker 1: a zoo. The vandal spray painted the exterior and interior 135 00:08:25,840 --> 00:08:29,960 Speaker 1: of a train and so then then two days later 136 00:08:30,400 --> 00:08:44,600 Speaker 1: Karen Bass said, this is unacceptable, it's unacceptable. She's she's 137 00:08:44,800 --> 00:08:50,200 Speaker 1: very angry. And what they will not do is tell 138 00:08:50,240 --> 00:08:53,160 Speaker 1: the truth that most of these people will never be caught, 139 00:08:54,440 --> 00:08:58,240 Speaker 1: not be prosecuted, certainly not be jailed. We cannot do 140 00:08:58,320 --> 00:09:00,760 Speaker 1: this to our city. It has to be stopped. You're 141 00:09:00,800 --> 00:09:03,640 Speaker 1: in charge of the city. It's your police department. You're 142 00:09:03,640 --> 00:09:07,880 Speaker 1: the one who neuters the police department. You neuter Jim McDonald, 143 00:09:08,080 --> 00:09:10,920 Speaker 1: you neuter the cops. They'll be happy to whale away 144 00:09:10,960 --> 00:09:13,840 Speaker 1: on these guys. But you won't let them. You never 145 00:09:13,960 --> 00:09:16,800 Speaker 1: let them. And that's why any group of one hundred 146 00:09:16,880 --> 00:09:20,000 Speaker 1: or a thousand people can come and shut down any roadway, 147 00:09:20,080 --> 00:09:24,640 Speaker 1: any freeway, terrorize any bus, subway car, people just try. 148 00:09:24,800 --> 00:09:29,320 Speaker 1: You wonder, every single person that I know will not 149 00:09:29,480 --> 00:09:33,280 Speaker 1: go downtown at night. Everyone doesn't matter what kind of 150 00:09:33,320 --> 00:09:36,040 Speaker 1: restaurants are down there, what kind of theater, what kind 151 00:09:36,080 --> 00:09:40,440 Speaker 1: of cool shows, what LA Live is. Nobody goes down 152 00:09:40,480 --> 00:09:43,360 Speaker 1: there from my side of town because they're afraid they'll 153 00:09:43,360 --> 00:09:49,480 Speaker 1: get killed. And she's done nothing to stop it. It 154 00:09:49,480 --> 00:09:53,120 Speaker 1: looks like they do fire rubber bullets. Eventually, that's not bad. 155 00:09:53,520 --> 00:09:56,640 Speaker 1: Rubber bullets hurt. You just have to fire stuff at 156 00:09:56,640 --> 00:09:59,319 Speaker 1: these people that hurt. If you don't do that, I 157 00:09:59,320 --> 00:10:02,440 Speaker 1: mean and putting him in jail, you know, just blast 158 00:10:02,520 --> 00:10:08,240 Speaker 1: him with about twelve rubber bullets. Well, now she's outraged. 159 00:10:08,240 --> 00:10:10,720 Speaker 1: I guess she's really gonna run for reelection. Huh tied 160 00:10:10,760 --> 00:10:13,160 Speaker 1: to get outraged about stuff that happens constantly. 161 00:10:13,400 --> 00:10:16,719 Speaker 2: Was there any doubt, any doubt about what she was 162 00:10:16,760 --> 00:10:18,079 Speaker 2: going to run for reelection? 163 00:10:18,480 --> 00:10:18,600 Speaker 3: Uh? 164 00:10:19,120 --> 00:10:21,959 Speaker 1: No, No, But I think now she's showing signs that 165 00:10:22,320 --> 00:10:26,040 Speaker 1: she's going to actively campaign by by getting upset over 166 00:10:26,080 --> 00:10:30,240 Speaker 1: this sort of thing.

I'll tell you what he'll be 169 00:10:34,880 --> 00:10:37,760 Speaker 1: talking about, something, something really cool. 170 00:10:38,600 --> 00:10:42,920 Speaker 4: You're listening to John Cobelt on demand from KFI AM 171 00:10:42,960 --> 00:10:43,760 Speaker 4: six forty. 172 00:10:45,000 --> 00:10:47,760 Speaker 1: Boys fine for Friday. Oh we have a short week, 173 00:10:47,840 --> 00:10:51,080 Speaker 1: so you better start now and begin raging eight seven 174 00:10:51,160 --> 00:10:54,240 Speaker 1: seven Moist steady six eight seven seven mois staighty six, 175 00:10:54,280 --> 00:10:59,720 Speaker 1: who used the talkback feature on the iHeartRadio app. Well, 176 00:10:59,760 --> 00:11:03,600 Speaker 1: try ump has really taking it to Gavin Newsom about 177 00:11:03,600 --> 00:11:10,199 Speaker 1: transgender athletes competing in women's sports, high school sports. Because 178 00:11:11,040 --> 00:11:15,160 Speaker 1: in the past week, there's a California high school junior, 179 00:11:16,200 --> 00:11:19,760 Speaker 1: a boy who won the girl's long jump and the 180 00:11:19,760 --> 00:11:25,800 Speaker 1: girls triple jump at the CIF Southern Section Master's Meet. 181 00:11:26,000 --> 00:11:29,840 Speaker 1: That's the California Interscholastic Federation, that's the governing body for 182 00:11:29,920 --> 00:11:33,320 Speaker 1: high school sports. So he wins at the CIF Southern 183 00:11:33,360 --> 00:11:38,360 Speaker 1: Section Master's Meet, champion girls long jump jump, champion girls 184 00:11:38,400 --> 00:11:44,400 Speaker 1: triple jump. He's a guy, biological man, transgender. And Gavin 185 00:11:44,440 --> 00:11:49,520 Speaker 1: Newsom on his own podcast, which you can hear on 186 00:11:49,559 --> 00:11:54,880 Speaker 1: the iHeartMedia app has said that it's deeply unfair for 187 00:11:55,000 --> 00:11:59,240 Speaker 1: biological men to compete in women's sports. All right, so 188 00:11:59,720 --> 00:12:05,720 Speaker 1: you think that since Newsom thinks it's deeply unfair that 189 00:12:06,480 --> 00:12:14,079 Speaker 1: they'd start tossing out these biological boys out of girls sports, Well, 190 00:12:14,080 --> 00:12:16,880 Speaker 1: Trump got writo this, and he's threatening to cut federal 191 00:12:16,920 --> 00:12:21,600 Speaker 1: funding to California. You know, this is one of his 192 00:12:21,760 --> 00:12:25,160 Speaker 1: rants on truth social So it's not clear if he's 193 00:12:25,200 --> 00:12:28,920 Speaker 1: threatening to cut all funding to California or just funding 194 00:12:29,000 --> 00:12:32,200 Speaker 1: related to schools or athletic programs. I mean, I don't know. 195 00:12:32,520 --> 00:12:36,960 Speaker 1: Billions of dollars come in hundreds of different ways between 196 00:12:37,000 --> 00:12:41,160 Speaker 1: the federal government and the state. And you know, if 197 00:12:41,200 --> 00:12:44,960 Speaker 1: he's up at two o'clock in the morning and he 198 00:12:45,080 --> 00:12:49,080 Speaker 1: suddenly starts ranting, you don't know what specifically he means, 199 00:12:49,240 --> 00:12:55,800 Speaker 1: if anything, But he directed it to Newsom. He said 200 00:12:56,040 --> 00:13:03,040 Speaker 1: the state continues to in capital letterslegally allow capital letters 201 00:13:03,200 --> 00:13:06,680 Speaker 1: men to play in women's sports, and Trump said I 202 00:13:06,720 --> 00:13:08,880 Speaker 1: will speak to him today to find out which way 203 00:13:08,880 --> 00:13:12,800 Speaker 1: he wants to go. In the meantime, I'm ordering local authorities, 204 00:13:12,840 --> 00:13:17,200 Speaker 1: if necessary, to not allow the transition person to compete 205 00:13:17,200 --> 00:13:21,239 Speaker 1: in the state finals. This is a totally ridiculous situation. 206 00:13:21,840 --> 00:13:25,120 Speaker 1: And I believe there are three exclamation points after that, 207 00:13:26,920 --> 00:13:31,480 Speaker 1: And he's right. I didn't have daughters, but if my 208 00:13:31,640 --> 00:13:34,600 Speaker 1: daughter was one of the best. I don't think people 209 00:13:34,920 --> 00:13:39,960 Speaker 1: understand how hard athletes work. I had. One of my 210 00:13:40,080 --> 00:13:46,160 Speaker 1: sons is an athlete. It's still playing baseball. And when 211 00:13:46,200 --> 00:13:49,400 Speaker 1: you're serious, when you hit the level where you're capable 212 00:13:49,440 --> 00:13:53,560 Speaker 1: of winning a state championship, it consumes your life. You're 213 00:13:53,640 --> 00:13:57,840 Speaker 1: up at five in the morning, you spend you know, 214 00:13:58,000 --> 00:14:00,319 Speaker 1: you might be in the weight room, depending on your sport. 215 00:14:00,559 --> 00:14:03,440 Speaker 1: If you're a runner, you're running for hours and hours. 216 00:14:04,040 --> 00:14:08,440 Speaker 1: You're you're constantly you know, you're you're watching your your 217 00:14:08,480 --> 00:14:11,680 Speaker 1: your your diet very carefully. You have to find a 218 00:14:11,679 --> 00:14:14,480 Speaker 1: way to fit in your schoolwork, your homework and all that. 219 00:14:14,600 --> 00:14:17,760 Speaker 1: You oftentimes give up your social life. It is a 220 00:14:17,800 --> 00:14:21,600 Speaker 1: tremendous sacrifice that these kids do. It is not easy. 221 00:14:22,360 --> 00:14:24,880 Speaker 1: It takes a lot of training. I I have a 222 00:14:24,880 --> 00:14:28,720 Speaker 1: friend whose daughter runs competitively both in high school and 223 00:14:28,720 --> 00:14:35,600 Speaker 1: now in college, and it's it's it's so tough. And 224 00:14:35,640 --> 00:14:39,800 Speaker 1: then to have a guy come in and suddenly they're 225 00:14:39,840 --> 00:14:41,720 Speaker 1: running way ahead of you, and they're standing on the 226 00:14:41,720 --> 00:14:44,120 Speaker 1: podium and they're getting the gold medal or they're getting 227 00:14:44,120 --> 00:14:47,240 Speaker 1: the all the the applause, and they're written up in 228 00:14:47,280 --> 00:14:52,160 Speaker 1: the papers. What this This is completely wrong, absolutely wrong 229 00:14:52,200 --> 00:14:56,040 Speaker 1: and unfair. There is no other side to this. If 230 00:14:56,040 --> 00:14:59,920 Speaker 1: you're a born, a biological man, you cannot compete against women. 231 00:15:00,560 --> 00:15:03,720 Speaker 1: And shame on all the women in this country who 232 00:15:03,760 --> 00:15:05,800 Speaker 1: don't stand up for the young girls who are trying 233 00:15:05,840 --> 00:15:08,920 Speaker 1: to compete. You know, before the nineteen seventies, there were 234 00:15:09,000 --> 00:15:12,800 Speaker 1: no there were no female athletes in high school. It 235 00:15:12,840 --> 00:15:16,840 Speaker 1: wasn't even funded. It wasn't until the federal government Congress 236 00:15:17,120 --> 00:15:21,520 Speaker 1: funded well past the Title nine Act and forced schools 237 00:15:21,600 --> 00:15:27,600 Speaker 1: to come up with programs force them. But that whole 238 00:15:27,640 --> 00:15:33,760 Speaker 1: generation of kids in many cities, there was nothing for them, 239 00:15:33,800 --> 00:15:41,120 Speaker 1: nothing in high school, nothing recreationally in town. So now 240 00:15:41,120 --> 00:15:44,840 Speaker 1: you have a girl. Now you have girls who are 241 00:15:44,880 --> 00:15:46,880 Speaker 1: shut out of the championship in the long jump, in 242 00:15:46,920 --> 00:15:51,760 Speaker 1: the triple drump because of this guy. And you got 243 00:15:51,760 --> 00:15:55,720 Speaker 1: the governor agreeing it's deeply unfair, but true to forum 244 00:15:56,000 --> 00:16:01,400 Speaker 1: Newsome is such a snake, such a phony, so full 245 00:16:01,560 --> 00:16:05,240 Speaker 1: of his own thess. He doesn't change the law. He 246 00:16:05,440 --> 00:16:08,200 Speaker 1: signed the law, and he doesn't have the guts to 247 00:16:08,240 --> 00:16:10,920 Speaker 1: stand up and say I need this law repealed. He 248 00:16:10,960 --> 00:16:14,080 Speaker 1: had a demand, he had a demand that the legislature 249 00:16:14,120 --> 00:16:18,520 Speaker 1: repealed the law. That's what he ought to do. Or 250 00:16:18,600 --> 00:16:23,280 Speaker 1: he ought to fund a referendum on the ballot to 251 00:16:23,360 --> 00:16:25,840 Speaker 1: repeal the law. That's what he ought to do and 252 00:16:25,880 --> 00:16:33,080 Speaker 1: campaign for it. The head of the US Department of 253 00:16:33,120 --> 00:16:39,880 Speaker 1: Agriculture conditioned it. Well, let me rephrase this. Back in April, 254 00:16:40,960 --> 00:16:44,000 Speaker 1: the head of the US Department of Agriculture wrote a 255 00:16:44,120 --> 00:16:48,760 Speaker 1: letter to Newsom saying, federal aid depends on you listening 256 00:16:48,840 --> 00:16:56,520 Speaker 1: to Trump directives and some of those were about gender issues, 257 00:16:56,600 --> 00:17:04,440 Speaker 1: transgender student right issues, and so they've been warned already. 258 00:17:05,280 --> 00:17:14,280 Speaker 1: The state gets sixteen billion dollars a year in education funding, 259 00:17:16,280 --> 00:17:21,919 Speaker 1: anything from school meals, disabilities, early education, head start programs. 260 00:17:23,359 --> 00:17:27,520 Speaker 1: There's also two billion dollars to counteract the effects of poverty. 261 00:17:29,520 --> 00:17:33,680 Speaker 1: And this is these are these are educational grants. I 262 00:17:33,680 --> 00:17:37,919 Speaker 1: don't know how much goes to sports. But you know what, 263 00:17:37,920 --> 00:17:39,359 Speaker 1: what do he ought to do? You know, this is 264 00:17:39,400 --> 00:17:42,320 Speaker 1: what he's been doing. He's just been issuing, issuing blanket 265 00:17:42,359 --> 00:17:46,600 Speaker 1: denials of federal aid whenever a university or some state 266 00:17:46,720 --> 00:17:50,360 Speaker 1: doesn't listen to the federal directive. And on this, he's 267 00:17:50,400 --> 00:17:55,880 Speaker 1: absolutely right. There shouldn't be one boy, one man competing 268 00:17:55,920 --> 00:18:02,480 Speaker 1: in any single girls sport anywhere, any sport. It should 269 00:18:02,520 --> 00:18:05,440 Speaker 1: be a total ban on that. It's wrong, it's unfair, 270 00:18:06,240 --> 00:18:09,040 Speaker 1: it's terrible for the girls. And like I was saying before, 271 00:18:09,240 --> 00:18:12,919 Speaker 1: a shame on the women in the schools, in the 272 00:18:12,960 --> 00:18:17,359 Speaker 1: administrations of these schools, school districts, who facilitate this stuff, 273 00:18:17,400 --> 00:18:20,600 Speaker 1: who defend this stuff, because it was so hard to 274 00:18:20,680 --> 00:18:23,760 Speaker 1: get girls' sports funday, it's so hard the way the 275 00:18:23,800 --> 00:18:26,159 Speaker 1: girls work out, and now they get smacked in the 276 00:18:26,200 --> 00:18:28,480 Speaker 1: face at the exact moment they're supposed to ascend to 277 00:18:28,560 --> 00:18:33,119 Speaker 1: the championship because a guy showed up. But you know, 278 00:18:33,440 --> 00:18:35,600 Speaker 1: on Tuesday he feels like, well, maybe I'm not a guy, 279 00:18:35,600 --> 00:18:39,960 Speaker 1: I'm a girl. Nikes all right more, Oh, we're gonna 280 00:18:39,960 --> 00:18:44,240 Speaker 1: have Bill Salley come up next. He's the US Attorney 281 00:18:44,560 --> 00:18:48,320 Speaker 1: for the Central District here based in Los Angeles, former 282 00:18:48,400 --> 00:18:51,879 Speaker 1: member of the California Legislature, and he has devised a 283 00:18:51,880 --> 00:18:56,600 Speaker 1: way to get around sanctuary city sanctuary state policies that 284 00:18:56,760 --> 00:19:02,320 Speaker 1: protect illegal alien criminals. It's a pretty clever and it's legal, 285 00:19:02,359 --> 00:19:06,199 Speaker 1: and it's already being implemented. And this is what the 286 00:19:06,200 --> 00:19:09,000 Speaker 1: federal government should have been doing for many years to 287 00:19:09,119 --> 00:19:13,320 Speaker 1: get around Newsome and Karen Bass's stupid sanctuary policies. You'll 288 00:19:13,320 --> 00:19:15,000 Speaker 1: hear about it next. It's fascinating. 289 00:19:16,160 --> 00:19:20,520 Speaker 4: You're listening to John cobelts on demand from KFI AM 290 00:19:20,520 --> 00:19:21,080 Speaker 4: six forty. 291 00:19:21,840 --> 00:19:24,840 Speaker 1: We're on every day from one till four o'clock and 292 00:19:24,880 --> 00:19:26,600 Speaker 1: then if you miss any part of the show, you 293 00:19:26,680 --> 00:19:29,000 Speaker 1: go to the iHeart hat the iHeart app for the 294 00:19:29,040 --> 00:19:33,119 Speaker 1: podcast John Cobelt's show on demand and you can listen 295 00:19:33,160 --> 00:19:36,000 Speaker 1: to what you miss. Now, you you must stick around 296 00:19:36,080 --> 00:19:40,520 Speaker 1: for this whole interview. Because Bill Saley was a former 297 00:19:40,600 --> 00:19:45,399 Speaker 1: legislator in Sacramento. He's become the US attorney here in 298 00:19:45,440 --> 00:19:49,320 Speaker 1: the Central District of California, and that's La Orange, Riverside, 299 00:19:49,359 --> 00:19:52,679 Speaker 1: San Bernardino, Santa barbarav and Taurres, San Luis Obispo Counties. 300 00:19:52,840 --> 00:19:56,280 Speaker 1: It is a wide area. It's also home to a 301 00:19:56,480 --> 00:19:59,760 Speaker 1: million and a half illegal aliens, not all of them 302 00:19:59,800 --> 00:20:03,399 Speaker 1: a people, a lot of dangerous felons, a lot of 303 00:20:03,440 --> 00:20:07,200 Speaker 1: gang members, criminals, and of course the big block has 304 00:20:07,240 --> 00:20:11,959 Speaker 1: been California's a stupid sanctuary city law which even protects 305 00:20:12,400 --> 00:20:18,080 Speaker 1: the worst, most violent felons imaginable. And what Bill A 306 00:20:18,160 --> 00:20:21,119 Speaker 1: Sale has done has come up with something called Operation 307 00:20:21,320 --> 00:20:26,920 Speaker 1: Guardian Angel to quote neutralize sanctuary state laws. We've got 308 00:20:26,920 --> 00:20:29,000 Speaker 1: Bill of Sale coming on now the US Attorney to 309 00:20:29,040 --> 00:20:31,680 Speaker 1: explain what Operation Guardian Angel is about. Bill. 310 00:20:31,720 --> 00:20:34,280 Speaker 3: How are you hey, John? Doing great? How are you? 311 00:20:34,640 --> 00:20:39,520 Speaker 1: I'm good? Well, explain what this is what you're attempting 312 00:20:39,560 --> 00:20:40,000 Speaker 1: to do here. 313 00:20:40,680 --> 00:20:42,280 Speaker 3: Yeah, you got to back up a little bit on 314 00:20:42,359 --> 00:20:46,000 Speaker 3: what exact we throw around sanctuary city, sanctuary jail, sanctuary 315 00:20:46,080 --> 00:20:48,679 Speaker 3: state all the time. What is it? Basically, what it 316 00:20:48,720 --> 00:20:52,400 Speaker 3: is is a law that prohibits local law enforcement from 317 00:20:52,440 --> 00:20:56,800 Speaker 3: cooperating with immigration officials, and most importantly, it prevents them 318 00:20:56,840 --> 00:21:00,119 Speaker 3: from honoring an ICE detainer. An ICE detainer is an 319 00:21:00,119 --> 00:21:04,520 Speaker 3: administrative warrant or an order which says, hey, this guy 320 00:21:04,600 --> 00:21:07,479 Speaker 3: you have or lady you have in jail is an 321 00:21:07,480 --> 00:21:10,520 Speaker 3: illegal immigrant. We're going to deport them, so don't let 322 00:21:10,520 --> 00:21:13,720 Speaker 3: them out. We're going to come pick them up. Please 323 00:21:13,800 --> 00:21:17,800 Speaker 3: hold them. And in California they will not hold them. 324 00:21:17,880 --> 00:21:20,120 Speaker 3: They will release them back into the street, even though 325 00:21:20,119 --> 00:21:22,560 Speaker 3: they've committed a crime or their criminal if they get bonded, 326 00:21:22,840 --> 00:21:25,800 Speaker 3: they just release them out. They ignore the detainer, and 327 00:21:25,880 --> 00:21:29,800 Speaker 3: so that is obviously being litigated. The Trump administration is 328 00:21:29,840 --> 00:21:33,240 Speaker 3: fighting aggressively to combat those policies. But in the meantime, 329 00:21:33,560 --> 00:21:35,359 Speaker 3: you know, I got together with my team and I said, well, 330 00:21:35,359 --> 00:21:37,000 Speaker 3: we got to do something about this. We've got all 331 00:21:37,040 --> 00:21:40,440 Speaker 3: these criminals in jail and we should be able to 332 00:21:40,440 --> 00:21:43,080 Speaker 3: go get them. So what we did is we got 333 00:21:43,119 --> 00:21:46,720 Speaker 3: a little creative. We said, Okay, forget the detainers, let's 334 00:21:46,760 --> 00:21:51,400 Speaker 3: just start getting arrest warrants, criminal judicial arrest warrants. Almost 335 00:21:51,480 --> 00:21:54,439 Speaker 3: all of these individuals have committed some sort of federal crime. 336 00:21:54,920 --> 00:21:57,360 Speaker 3: If you've been deported and you come back, it's called 337 00:21:57,400 --> 00:22:01,920 Speaker 3: illegal re entry. It's a felony. If you're a alien 338 00:22:02,040 --> 00:22:04,439 Speaker 3: and you got arrested with a gun, that's a federal 339 00:22:04,480 --> 00:22:07,200 Speaker 3: crime alien and possession of a firearm. There's a lot 340 00:22:07,240 --> 00:22:10,800 Speaker 3: of there's a myriad of charges we can use to 341 00:22:10,920 --> 00:22:14,359 Speaker 3: get a complaint on file and a warrant issued on 342 00:22:14,440 --> 00:22:18,280 Speaker 3: these aliens in jail custody. And the way this is working, John, 343 00:22:18,359 --> 00:22:20,520 Speaker 3: is the reason I called it Operation Guarden Angel. We 344 00:22:20,640 --> 00:22:24,080 Speaker 3: literally have a team of a few dozen agents, special 345 00:22:24,119 --> 00:22:26,960 Speaker 3: agents across the street from me. They're looking at the 346 00:22:27,040 --> 00:22:31,399 Speaker 3: jail databases in real time. As someone's booked in, we 347 00:22:31,480 --> 00:22:34,439 Speaker 3: immediately look at their immigration records, and we're riding a 348 00:22:34,440 --> 00:22:37,840 Speaker 3: criminal warrant and getting an a rest warrant within like 349 00:22:37,960 --> 00:22:40,800 Speaker 3: two hours, within a couple hours of when they hit 350 00:22:40,840 --> 00:22:44,199 Speaker 3: the jail. And what that does is it prevents them 351 00:22:44,200 --> 00:22:47,199 Speaker 3: from getting released. They cannot ignore an arrest warrant, a 352 00:22:47,200 --> 00:22:49,399 Speaker 3: federal rest warrant, and we can go get them from 353 00:22:49,480 --> 00:22:52,639 Speaker 3: the county jails. So that's an essence how it works. 354 00:22:53,000 --> 00:22:55,560 Speaker 1: So how long does it take to You said, a 355 00:22:55,600 --> 00:22:58,159 Speaker 1: couple hours to get the warrant and you have to 356 00:22:58,160 --> 00:23:00,960 Speaker 1: go to a judge to get that an issue it 357 00:23:02,000 --> 00:23:02,359 Speaker 1: go ahead? 358 00:23:02,480 --> 00:23:04,440 Speaker 3: No, no, you got to. You got to. You got 359 00:23:04,480 --> 00:23:07,880 Speaker 3: to write an affidavid statement of probable cause. Although it's 360 00:23:07,880 --> 00:23:10,479 Speaker 3: pretty simple for these cases. It's a this person does 361 00:23:10,560 --> 00:23:13,479 Speaker 3: not have legal status and they are in the country. 362 00:23:13,520 --> 00:23:16,320 Speaker 3: It's pretty easy elements to meet on a lot of these. 363 00:23:16,800 --> 00:23:19,280 Speaker 3: So we write the warrant, we take it to that, 364 00:23:19,359 --> 00:23:21,160 Speaker 3: we write the affidated, we take it to the judge. 365 00:23:21,200 --> 00:23:23,640 Speaker 3: The judge signs the warrant and we're doing this around 366 00:23:23,680 --> 00:23:25,800 Speaker 3: the clock, so we'll do after our warrants, we'll do 367 00:23:25,800 --> 00:23:29,040 Speaker 3: it on the weekends, we'll do it whenever, wherever to 368 00:23:29,119 --> 00:23:32,080 Speaker 3: make sure these people don't get released from a sanctuary jail, 369 00:23:32,440 --> 00:23:34,959 Speaker 3: and then you go get them, and then we go 370 00:23:35,000 --> 00:23:37,320 Speaker 3: get them when their case is over. When they get released. 371 00:23:37,359 --> 00:23:39,320 Speaker 3: I mean, if they're being held on a serious charge 372 00:23:39,359 --> 00:23:42,119 Speaker 3: in jail, we want them to finish their state case 373 00:23:42,520 --> 00:23:44,720 Speaker 3: and then when they're done, they'll be handed over to 374 00:23:44,760 --> 00:23:47,200 Speaker 3: our custody. But if they have a relatively minor case, 375 00:23:47,280 --> 00:23:50,520 Speaker 3: john like a dui or petty theft or something, they're 376 00:23:50,520 --> 00:23:51,800 Speaker 3: not going to get sent They're not going to sit 377 00:23:51,800 --> 00:23:54,080 Speaker 3: in jail. They're going to get released. So if they 378 00:23:54,080 --> 00:23:57,160 Speaker 3: get released by the state, then they come into our custody. 379 00:23:57,160 --> 00:23:57,840 Speaker 3: We go get them. 380 00:23:58,280 --> 00:24:02,000 Speaker 1: If they get convicted of a serious felony, do you 381 00:24:02,080 --> 00:24:05,640 Speaker 1: let them play out their prison sentence first, yes. 382 00:24:06,000 --> 00:24:08,199 Speaker 3: Yes, and then they'll have a they'll have a prize 383 00:24:08,200 --> 00:24:10,680 Speaker 3: ready for them. At the end, they'll have a new 384 00:24:10,720 --> 00:24:13,840 Speaker 3: case that they will pick up and they'll come here 385 00:24:13,880 --> 00:24:15,560 Speaker 3: and be prosecuted on that case when they're done with 386 00:24:15,600 --> 00:24:16,160 Speaker 3: their staycase. 387 00:24:16,400 --> 00:24:20,160 Speaker 1: And this always could have been done if somebody bothered 388 00:24:20,160 --> 00:24:23,359 Speaker 1: to do it. I mean, you're not inventing new law here. 389 00:24:23,359 --> 00:24:27,000 Speaker 1: This all always you were capable or your predecessors will 390 00:24:27,040 --> 00:24:28,320 Speaker 1: cap them. 391 00:24:28,720 --> 00:24:31,439 Speaker 3: No, you're right, I mean we're not. We're following the 392 00:24:31,520 --> 00:24:33,600 Speaker 3: law on the books. You know. One of the reporters 393 00:24:33,640 --> 00:24:35,080 Speaker 3: asked me, like, well, what are you going to you know, 394 00:24:35,359 --> 00:24:38,119 Speaker 3: what are you going to say to the local electeds 395 00:24:38,200 --> 00:24:39,600 Speaker 3: or the governor If they have a problem with this, 396 00:24:39,680 --> 00:24:42,119 Speaker 3: I say, go take it up with Congress. Congress writes 397 00:24:42,160 --> 00:24:44,600 Speaker 3: the laws, we enforce them. If you don't like the law, 398 00:24:44,640 --> 00:24:46,640 Speaker 3: go change the law. But we're not going to pick 399 00:24:46,680 --> 00:24:48,840 Speaker 3: and choose what laws to enforce here. We're going to 400 00:24:48,920 --> 00:24:51,679 Speaker 3: enforce the law in the books. But the left is 401 00:24:51,680 --> 00:24:54,120 Speaker 3: is smart, John, and they wrote these laws. They wrote 402 00:24:54,160 --> 00:24:56,199 Speaker 3: sanctuary laws in a way to say, well, just go 403 00:24:56,240 --> 00:24:59,120 Speaker 3: get a warrant. That's very easy to say, but as 404 00:24:59,160 --> 00:25:01,920 Speaker 3: you can see, it is very resource intensive. It takes 405 00:25:01,960 --> 00:25:04,840 Speaker 3: a lot of work to have an agent review someone's file, 406 00:25:04,880 --> 00:25:08,640 Speaker 3: their immigration file, their criminal history, ride an affidavid, take 407 00:25:08,680 --> 00:25:10,359 Speaker 3: it to a judge, have a judge review it, and 408 00:25:10,359 --> 00:25:13,600 Speaker 3: get it signed. It's a very onerous and resource intensive process. 409 00:25:13,640 --> 00:25:16,359 Speaker 3: But I've made the decision to go ahead and invest 410 00:25:16,359 --> 00:25:19,400 Speaker 3: the resources because we want to flood the system with warrants. 411 00:25:19,600 --> 00:25:22,159 Speaker 3: We want to prove a point that there is no 412 00:25:22,320 --> 00:25:25,680 Speaker 3: sanctuary and we will get these criminal aliens whether they 413 00:25:25,720 --> 00:25:27,960 Speaker 3: like it or not. And I'm willing to use all 414 00:25:27,960 --> 00:25:29,760 Speaker 3: the tools I have in resources I need in the 415 00:25:29,760 --> 00:25:33,080 Speaker 3: meantime to accomplish that so that but they know it's 416 00:25:33,080 --> 00:25:34,760 Speaker 3: going to take a lot more work on our part. 417 00:25:34,920 --> 00:25:39,080 Speaker 1: I've heard California officials say that repeatedly away and criticized 418 00:25:39,080 --> 00:25:43,240 Speaker 1: about sanctuary cities or states or jails or whatever. They say, well, 419 00:25:43,280 --> 00:25:45,399 Speaker 1: they can go get a federal warrant from a judge. 420 00:25:45,440 --> 00:25:48,520 Speaker 1: We'll certainly honor that. They just haven't produced one in 421 00:25:48,560 --> 00:25:51,280 Speaker 1: this case. So now you're going to produce them. 422 00:25:52,560 --> 00:25:54,959 Speaker 3: We're going to produce it. We're going to call them out, 423 00:25:55,000 --> 00:25:57,320 Speaker 3: We're going to call their bluff. We're going to do it. 424 00:25:57,760 --> 00:25:59,640 Speaker 3: And what they're doing in the meantime, John is they're 425 00:25:59,680 --> 00:26:01,880 Speaker 3: making it worse for these criminal aliens because had they 426 00:26:01,920 --> 00:26:05,199 Speaker 3: just honored the ICE detainer, they probably would just be 427 00:26:05,240 --> 00:26:08,240 Speaker 3: picked up and deported. Not what they're forcing me to 428 00:26:08,280 --> 00:26:11,479 Speaker 3: do is criminally prosecute the alien before they're deported. So 429 00:26:11,720 --> 00:26:13,200 Speaker 3: not only are they going to get deported, but they're 430 00:26:13,200 --> 00:26:14,840 Speaker 3: probably going to serve a couple of years in federal 431 00:26:14,880 --> 00:26:18,240 Speaker 3: prison before their deportation. So is is that really what 432 00:26:18,280 --> 00:26:20,240 Speaker 3: they're trying to accomplish her? Because that's what they're forcing 433 00:26:20,280 --> 00:26:20,639 Speaker 3: me to do. 434 00:26:20,800 --> 00:26:23,040 Speaker 1: So somebody who gets convicted of a serious crime in 435 00:26:23,080 --> 00:26:25,399 Speaker 1: the state will serve a prison term in state prison, 436 00:26:25,720 --> 00:26:28,800 Speaker 1: then go to federal prison for re entering the country illegally, 437 00:26:28,840 --> 00:26:30,720 Speaker 1: for example, and then get deported. 438 00:26:31,720 --> 00:26:33,840 Speaker 3: Yes, or if they haven't committed a serious crime, they'll 439 00:26:33,840 --> 00:26:36,320 Speaker 3: say they're here in a dui, but they've re entered 440 00:26:36,800 --> 00:26:39,879 Speaker 3: un lawfully. Then they're going to serve a prison sentence 441 00:26:39,920 --> 00:26:40,920 Speaker 3: before their deportation. 442 00:26:41,320 --> 00:26:43,919 Speaker 1: Right, So they're going to end up in a federal 443 00:26:43,960 --> 00:26:45,800 Speaker 1: prison triggered by the dui. 444 00:26:46,760 --> 00:26:49,200 Speaker 3: Correct, And that's a result of the policies of these 445 00:26:49,240 --> 00:26:51,760 Speaker 3: policymakers in California. Wow, they're responsible. 446 00:26:51,800 --> 00:26:56,080 Speaker 1: That is a great strategy. How many people do you 447 00:26:56,119 --> 00:26:58,359 Speaker 1: think you can nail over the next few years? 448 00:26:59,119 --> 00:27:03,320 Speaker 3: So, well, you'll love these stats. So my predecessor in 449 00:27:03,359 --> 00:27:07,760 Speaker 3: this office, the prior US attorney, filed almost none of 450 00:27:07,840 --> 00:27:11,240 Speaker 3: these thirteen twenty six cases. Zero thirteen twenty six is 451 00:27:11,600 --> 00:27:16,760 Speaker 3: a charge for illegal reentry. We are now just you know, 452 00:27:17,119 --> 00:27:19,760 Speaker 3: five months into to the new year. I think we 453 00:27:19,840 --> 00:27:22,840 Speaker 3: filed almost four hundred cases of thirteen twenty six is 454 00:27:23,320 --> 00:27:26,280 Speaker 3: as far as getting people directly from the jails, we 455 00:27:26,320 --> 00:27:30,480 Speaker 3: think once we're fully operational and we have this down, 456 00:27:30,760 --> 00:27:33,439 Speaker 3: we're thinking of we're looking at forty to fifty bodies 457 00:27:33,480 --> 00:27:35,080 Speaker 3: a week from the local jails. 458 00:27:35,240 --> 00:27:40,280 Speaker 1: Wow, wow, Bill, Great, John this is exciting. Rarely get 459 00:27:40,320 --> 00:27:45,360 Speaker 1: news like this, So congratulations and keep talking with us. 460 00:27:45,400 --> 00:27:47,680 Speaker 1: If an update us on how well this is going 461 00:27:47,680 --> 00:27:48,600 Speaker 1: in the future. 462 00:27:49,119 --> 00:27:51,280 Speaker 3: I will, I will. And there's one thing, Johnson, you 463 00:27:51,280 --> 00:27:52,840 Speaker 3: got to call the governor out because he always says this. 464 00:27:52,880 --> 00:27:55,480 Speaker 3: He goes, well, we we do comply with ice detainers. 465 00:27:55,480 --> 00:27:56,000 Speaker 3: He's lying. 466 00:27:56,680 --> 00:27:59,479 Speaker 1: He oh no, you're kidding me. New some sly. 467 00:28:00,920 --> 00:28:03,080 Speaker 3: Let me tell you how he wrote the law. How 468 00:28:03,080 --> 00:28:05,880 Speaker 3: the law was written. The prison, the state prison which 469 00:28:05,880 --> 00:28:08,600 Speaker 3: he runs, has the option of whether they want to 470 00:28:08,600 --> 00:28:11,520 Speaker 3: comply with an IS cittainer or not. The local jails, 471 00:28:11,520 --> 00:28:13,879 Speaker 3: the sheriffs do not have an option. They are not 472 00:28:13,960 --> 00:28:16,280 Speaker 3: allowed to comply. So yes, when he has a really 473 00:28:16,280 --> 00:28:18,360 Speaker 3: bad case hit the headlines, he says, oh no, no, no, 474 00:28:18,359 --> 00:28:20,320 Speaker 3: we're going to hand him over to Ice. Nothing to 475 00:28:20,359 --> 00:28:23,080 Speaker 3: see here. It is not true for local jails. County 476 00:28:23,080 --> 00:28:26,200 Speaker 3: sheriffs do not have the discretion to comply. Only he does. 477 00:28:26,320 --> 00:28:28,200 Speaker 3: So that's how they write the laws. And then when 478 00:28:28,200 --> 00:28:30,120 Speaker 3: you have one of these bad cases like this guy 479 00:28:30,200 --> 00:28:33,800 Speaker 3: up in the I think it was Ventura who was 480 00:28:33,840 --> 00:28:36,000 Speaker 3: picked up in April. He was let out with an 481 00:28:36,040 --> 00:28:38,280 Speaker 3: isenttainer and he killed his son two weeks later, and 482 00:28:38,400 --> 00:28:40,400 Speaker 3: he left him in a hot car. Yeah, and he says, well, 483 00:28:40,400 --> 00:28:42,000 Speaker 3: that's the locals, they let him out. You should go 484 00:28:42,080 --> 00:28:42,560 Speaker 3: talk to them. 485 00:28:42,640 --> 00:28:46,640 Speaker 1: Yeah. He's such a rat I swear. 486 00:28:46,880 --> 00:28:50,600 Speaker 3: And he's blamed Todd Spitzer for the DUI guy that 487 00:28:50,800 --> 00:28:53,640 Speaker 3: killed Deck, that innocent young nineteen year old couple. 488 00:28:53,880 --> 00:28:57,240 Speaker 1: Yeah, he's good at those misdirection tricks. All right, Bell, 489 00:28:57,320 --> 00:28:58,640 Speaker 1: thanks for coming on with us. 490 00:28:59,120 --> 00:29:00,000 Speaker 3: Thank you, Johnny time. 491 00:29:00,200 --> 00:29:03,000 Speaker 1: All right. The US Attorney for the Central District covering 492 00:29:03,880 --> 00:29:06,760 Speaker 1: most of southern California, BILLI. Sally, And they have a 493 00:29:06,800 --> 00:29:12,680 Speaker 1: way to get criminals who've broken the law here in 494 00:29:12,720 --> 00:29:16,840 Speaker 1: California and who also have broken federal immigration law, to 495 00:29:16,880 --> 00:29:19,840 Speaker 1: get them an extra prison term in federal prison and 496 00:29:19,880 --> 00:29:23,080 Speaker 1: then eventually deported it's called Operation Guardian Angel It's a 497 00:29:23,120 --> 00:29:26,600 Speaker 1: way or around the Sanctuary City. Nonsense. More coming up. 498 00:29:27,480 --> 00:29:31,800 Speaker 4: You're listening to John Cobels on demand from KFI AM 499 00:29:31,840 --> 00:29:32,360 Speaker 4: six forty. 500 00:29:33,200 --> 00:29:38,920 Speaker 1: Coming up after two o'clock. This just happened. The idiot 501 00:29:38,960 --> 00:29:43,480 Speaker 1: mayor of Los Angeles, Karen Bess, has signed a thirty 502 00:29:43,560 --> 00:29:48,120 Speaker 1: dollars an hour minimum wage ordinance for hotel workers, tourism workers. 503 00:29:48,640 --> 00:29:51,240 Speaker 1: We're going to have Jackie FeelA on, the president and 504 00:29:51,320 --> 00:29:55,520 Speaker 1: CEO of the Hotel Association of Los Angeles. This is 505 00:29:56,240 --> 00:29:59,120 Speaker 1: big trouble for the tourism industry here in LA. Thirty 506 00:29:59,120 --> 00:30:02,760 Speaker 1: bucks an hour is more than many of them can afford, obviously, 507 00:30:03,160 --> 00:30:08,320 Speaker 1: so it's nuts. But Karen Bass never stopping in her 508 00:30:08,680 --> 00:30:11,640 Speaker 1: quest to destroy Los Angeles. We'll talk about that coming 509 00:30:11,720 --> 00:30:15,040 Speaker 1: up after two o'clock. I think we ran a spot 510 00:30:15,120 --> 00:30:21,200 Speaker 1: in the last commercial break for stimulant use disorder. You 511 00:30:21,240 --> 00:30:28,040 Speaker 1: know somebody who's overstimulated on drugs. Here's an example, a 512 00:30:28,040 --> 00:30:33,080 Speaker 1: man in Florida, of course, Timothy Schultz, forty two meth addict. 513 00:30:34,160 --> 00:30:38,040 Speaker 1: He had so much myth he jumped into a lake 514 00:30:38,880 --> 00:30:40,760 Speaker 1: infested with alligators. 515 00:30:41,320 --> 00:30:41,680 Speaker 2: Idiot. 516 00:30:43,000 --> 00:30:48,040 Speaker 1: Somebody saw him and threw him a life fest. He 517 00:30:48,080 --> 00:30:52,720 Speaker 1: didn't want the life fest. He started growling, growling, growling 518 00:30:52,760 --> 00:30:55,920 Speaker 1: at the good Samaritan who tossed him a life fest. 519 00:30:56,360 --> 00:30:58,800 Speaker 1: And then one of the alligators bit him on his 520 00:30:58,920 --> 00:31:05,240 Speaker 1: right thigh. Well, he deserved it, and it didn't stop him. 521 00:31:05,240 --> 00:31:08,840 Speaker 1: Though may have been his arm, it didn't stop him. 522 00:31:09,880 --> 00:31:15,440 Speaker 1: He continued on a rampage. Schultz suddenly emerged from the 523 00:31:15,480 --> 00:31:18,480 Speaker 1: lake after being bitten and grabbed a pair of garden 524 00:31:18,480 --> 00:31:25,040 Speaker 1: shears from a nearby home. The cops showed up Schultz then, 525 00:31:25,400 --> 00:31:29,160 Speaker 1: you know, and he's got the bleeding alligator wound, charges 526 00:31:29,200 --> 00:31:35,480 Speaker 1: at them with the with the garden shears. One of 527 00:31:35,520 --> 00:31:40,680 Speaker 1: them fired a stun gun. Taser had no effect. Then 528 00:31:40,880 --> 00:31:44,120 Speaker 1: he tried to jump into the patrol vehicle and steal 529 00:31:44,160 --> 00:31:48,040 Speaker 1: one of the guns, and then the deputies shot him 530 00:31:48,080 --> 00:31:53,240 Speaker 1: multiple times. And the quote from the sheriffs is, as 531 00:31:53,240 --> 00:31:55,160 Speaker 1: a result, Timothy is deceased. 532 00:31:57,440 --> 00:32:00,280 Speaker 2: I mean, I'm we're not laughing that there's a dead man. 533 00:32:00,480 --> 00:32:03,440 Speaker 2: I am, well, I'm not okay, okay, so email John, 534 00:32:03,800 --> 00:32:04,960 Speaker 2: you can distance yourself. 535 00:32:06,000 --> 00:32:08,120 Speaker 1: But what I don't remember smile tells a different story, 536 00:32:08,160 --> 00:32:08,760 Speaker 1: though I'm. 537 00:32:10,680 --> 00:32:14,720 Speaker 2: Not I'm just thinking I don't understand why the alligator 538 00:32:14,760 --> 00:32:15,400 Speaker 2: didn't eat him. 539 00:32:16,560 --> 00:32:19,360 Speaker 1: I think he jumped out of the too quick and 540 00:32:19,840 --> 00:32:24,160 Speaker 1: the lake too quickly. Yeah, the bike probably enraged him. 541 00:32:24,440 --> 00:32:27,680 Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, I've never done meth, but from what 542 00:32:27,720 --> 00:32:29,000 Speaker 2: I hear, myth makes. 543 00:32:28,800 --> 00:32:32,440 Speaker 1: You crazy, sure, and you end up growling, I mean 544 00:32:32,480 --> 00:32:36,240 Speaker 1: growling people trying to help you. It turns out you 545 00:32:36,280 --> 00:32:40,200 Speaker 1: might be surprised. He had a lengthy drug wrap sheet. No, 546 00:32:40,440 --> 00:32:43,640 Speaker 1: and he had just been released from County jail on 547 00:32:43,720 --> 00:32:48,560 Speaker 1: May twentieth, just a few days ago, following another meth bust. 548 00:32:48,800 --> 00:32:51,680 Speaker 1: And of course they're putting the deputies on administrative leave 549 00:32:52,400 --> 00:32:53,760 Speaker 1: like they did something wrong. 550 00:32:55,080 --> 00:32:57,320 Speaker 2: What was I don't understand what they were supposed to do? 551 00:32:57,480 --> 00:33:00,960 Speaker 1: He was he was stealing a gun from a patrol car. Yeah, 552 00:33:00,960 --> 00:33:08,160 Speaker 1: what are they supposed to do? Shoot me? And if 553 00:33:08,200 --> 00:33:12,240 Speaker 1: you see is his bugshot? Yeah, he looks like meth 554 00:33:12,320 --> 00:33:19,360 Speaker 1: crazed Florida man. He dives into an alligator infested John. 555 00:33:19,400 --> 00:33:23,880 Speaker 2: He wasn't thinking straight. He didn't know there were alligators there. 556 00:33:23,960 --> 00:33:25,080 Speaker 2: He didn't realize. 557 00:33:25,800 --> 00:33:30,960 Speaker 1: Yeah, according to the sheriff, if you're on enough meth, 558 00:33:31,520 --> 00:33:34,960 Speaker 1: then the person you see is not the person that's attacking. 559 00:33:36,240 --> 00:33:40,600 Speaker 1: In other words, that's not the real Timothy, not the 560 00:33:40,600 --> 00:33:41,640 Speaker 1: real Timothy Schultz. 561 00:33:41,720 --> 00:33:45,520 Speaker 2: See that that was the He's really a nice guy, really. 562 00:33:45,320 --> 00:33:48,320 Speaker 1: A nice guy when he's not on an overdose of myth. Okay, 563 00:33:49,960 --> 00:33:52,240 Speaker 1: he doesn't normally go after you with garden. 564 00:33:52,000 --> 00:33:56,280 Speaker 2: Shears, and he doesn't normally jump into an alligator infested 565 00:33:56,720 --> 00:33:57,520 Speaker 2: right late. 566 00:33:57,760 --> 00:34:00,719 Speaker 1: Yeah, but how about that alligator bites you and you 567 00:34:00,800 --> 00:34:01,520 Speaker 1: just shake it off. 568 00:34:01,600 --> 00:34:04,840 Speaker 2: Wow, I mean that's kind of cool. I'm not feeling 569 00:34:04,880 --> 00:34:06,800 Speaker 2: that that would hurt. 570 00:34:08,320 --> 00:34:10,919 Speaker 1: I saw a guy on meth once in my life 571 00:34:11,520 --> 00:34:17,600 Speaker 1: who exhibited superhuman strength at my kid's little league baseball 572 00:34:17,640 --> 00:34:21,160 Speaker 1: field years ago. It was enclosed with a series of fences. 573 00:34:21,760 --> 00:34:24,719 Speaker 1: This guy got caught in between the fences, homeless guy, right, 574 00:34:25,200 --> 00:34:28,360 Speaker 1: and we were trying to have a practice and the 575 00:34:28,480 --> 00:34:31,640 Speaker 1: dads started chasing the guy with baseball bats to get 576 00:34:31,680 --> 00:34:35,120 Speaker 1: him out. And he was middle aged, he had a paunch, 577 00:34:35,920 --> 00:34:40,600 Speaker 1: gray hair, on meth eyes bugged out. The dads chased 578 00:34:40,640 --> 00:34:42,439 Speaker 1: him right to a fence which is about twenty feet 579 00:34:42,480 --> 00:34:46,000 Speaker 1: tall chaaninling fence. On all of a sudden, he scrambled 580 00:34:46,080 --> 00:34:49,799 Speaker 1: up the fence in like a split second, swung his 581 00:34:49,920 --> 00:34:52,720 Speaker 1: legs over and then quickly climbed down the other side. 582 00:34:52,880 --> 00:34:56,560 Speaker 1: We're all standing there done in shock, mouths open. It's 583 00:34:56,560 --> 00:34:58,359 Speaker 1: like it was like a magic trick. How the hell 584 00:34:58,400 --> 00:35:00,160 Speaker 1: did he do that? But that's what the meth did 585 00:35:00,200 --> 00:35:02,000 Speaker 1: for him. This guy is at least, I don't know, 586 00:35:02,040 --> 00:35:07,040 Speaker 1: forty five to fifty years old, out of shape. No 587 00:35:08,040 --> 00:35:10,960 Speaker 1: way he could do this. Normally, he couldn't get two 588 00:35:11,040 --> 00:35:15,200 Speaker 1: steps up the fence. But the meth, Wow, that's like 589 00:35:15,320 --> 00:35:20,080 Speaker 1: rocket fuel. When we come back, we're going to talk 590 00:35:20,080 --> 00:35:24,880 Speaker 1: with Jackie FeelA, president and CEO the Hotel Associational Los Angeles, 591 00:35:24,920 --> 00:35:29,360 Speaker 1: the idiot mayor. She's not done ruining the city. She 592 00:35:29,760 --> 00:35:34,239 Speaker 1: has signed an ordinance so that hotel tourism workers can 593 00:35:34,280 --> 00:35:38,200 Speaker 1: make thirty dollars an hour, and some hotels are now 594 00:35:38,239 --> 00:35:40,239 Speaker 1: saying we're out when it comes to the Olympics.
