This has to do 28 00:01:41,680 --> 00:01:44,240 Speaker 1: with a well, the story seemed to pile up about 29 00:01:44,280 --> 00:01:46,240 Speaker 1: what's going on in the Anaheim government's beginning to make 30 00:01:46,240 --> 00:01:49,760 Speaker 1: the city of la government look kindly, hey, really corrupting 31 00:01:49,800 --> 00:01:53,280 Speaker 1: the Anaheim Wholy mackerel. Of course, the big story there 32 00:01:53,400 --> 00:01:57,640 Speaker 1: is the purchase of Angel Stadium by the Angels team. 33 00:01:58,160 --> 00:02:01,160 Speaker 1: But the mayor apparently we may have been providing a 34 00:02:01,160 --> 00:02:04,160 Speaker 1: little inside information on the sale of the stadium from 35 00:02:04,200 --> 00:02:08,200 Speaker 1: Anaheim the Angels, and that's one of the reasons he's resigning. 36 00:02:08,320 --> 00:02:11,720 Speaker 1: He was telling the Angels the details of his own 37 00:02:11,960 --> 00:02:16,320 Speaker 1: negotiating team's position, and then he wanted a million dollars 38 00:02:16,360 --> 00:02:20,160 Speaker 1: back from the Angels as payment. His attorney says, this 39 00:02:20,280 --> 00:02:23,919 Speaker 1: is all false. We'll have our day in court. Yeah, 40 00:02:23,960 --> 00:02:25,600 Speaker 1: you'll have a lot of Meanwhile, a lot of people, 41 00:02:25,639 --> 00:02:28,320 Speaker 1: including the entire city council, thinks he should be resigned 42 00:02:28,320 --> 00:02:29,920 Speaker 1: for now, and he's gonna be. It's gonna be about 43 00:02:29,960 --> 00:02:32,280 Speaker 1: two months in court and then maybe five years of prison, 44 00:02:34,120 --> 00:02:36,799 Speaker 1: something people long wondered because Annaheim, well, I've actually thought 45 00:02:36,800 --> 00:02:38,880 Speaker 1: that Anaheim was the city of Anaheim is pretty much 46 00:02:38,960 --> 00:02:42,360 Speaker 1: run by Disney. But there's a stadium too. Those are 47 00:02:42,360 --> 00:02:45,440 Speaker 1: the big businesses there. We're gonna go now to Alex Stone, 48 00:02:45,480 --> 00:02:48,639 Speaker 1: ABC News for KFI. Today. May twenty third was the 49 00:02:48,720 --> 00:02:51,040 Speaker 1: day we heard the Biden administration was going to end 50 00:02:51,560 --> 00:02:55,160 Speaker 1: a Title forty two, which is the border policy of 51 00:02:55,160 --> 00:02:58,600 Speaker 1: a public health order that allows Borda patrol to turn 52 00:02:58,639 --> 00:03:01,760 Speaker 1: away many migrants, and that didn't happen because of a 53 00:03:01,760 --> 00:03:05,960 Speaker 1: federal judge. He's got an in depth report on all 54 00:03:06,000 --> 00:03:07,640 Speaker 1: that's been going on at the border and the Title 55 00:03:07,680 --> 00:03:09,240 Speaker 1: forty two issues. He's going to come on and talk 56 00:03:09,280 --> 00:03:11,520 Speaker 1: to us about it. Alex, tell us what's going on. 57 00:03:11,600 --> 00:03:14,000 Speaker 1: Hey there, guys. Yeah, So we spent the last week 58 00:03:14,160 --> 00:03:18,399 Speaker 1: on the both side San Diego, Tijuana, Yuma. We've been 59 00:03:18,400 --> 00:03:21,440 Speaker 1: in Aho Arizone out in the desert middle of nowhere, 60 00:03:22,040 --> 00:03:24,880 Speaker 1: with different teams out there as well, and I mean 61 00:03:24,960 --> 00:03:29,079 Speaker 1: interesting stuff. On Friday when the ruling came down, immediately 62 00:03:29,120 --> 00:03:32,080 Speaker 1: the mayor of Yuma was saying, this is the right ruling, 63 00:03:32,200 --> 00:03:34,920 Speaker 1: but he's a Republican so he agreed with it. But 64 00:03:35,080 --> 00:03:38,000 Speaker 1: it came down too late in that it needed to 65 00:03:38,040 --> 00:03:40,800 Speaker 1: come two weeks ago, that the movement was already coming 66 00:03:40,920 --> 00:03:44,440 Speaker 1: from Central and South America with the belief that it 67 00:03:44,520 --> 00:03:47,520 Speaker 1: was going to expire today and that that's going to 68 00:03:47,560 --> 00:03:50,000 Speaker 1: be a problem, that we're going to be seeing increased 69 00:03:50,040 --> 00:03:52,800 Speaker 1: numbers showing up of the border, not necessarily a surge yet, 70 00:03:53,200 --> 00:03:55,760 Speaker 1: but increased numbers. And he was saying, this title forty 71 00:03:55,760 --> 00:03:57,520 Speaker 1: two doesn't need to go away, we just need to 72 00:03:57,520 --> 00:03:59,680 Speaker 1: be prepared for it. And I asked nine months ago 73 00:04:00,120 --> 00:04:03,400 Speaker 1: from DHS, hey, what are we doing. What's the plan 74 00:04:03,520 --> 00:04:05,600 Speaker 1: because we all know what's going away. He says that 75 00:04:05,680 --> 00:04:07,760 Speaker 1: plan is not there, that the DHS gave him a 76 00:04:07,800 --> 00:04:11,040 Speaker 1: plan about three weeks ago that was inadequate, that did 77 00:04:11,040 --> 00:04:13,240 Speaker 1: not answer what needs to be done. So now we're 78 00:04:13,280 --> 00:04:16,240 Speaker 1: in this period of no telling how long Title forty 79 00:04:16,240 --> 00:04:19,000 Speaker 1: two is going to remain, the judge in Louisiana saying 80 00:04:19,040 --> 00:04:23,120 Speaker 1: that it will be until the trial is done involving 81 00:04:23,120 --> 00:04:26,479 Speaker 1: a lawsuit from Arizona and twenty three other states that 82 00:04:26,520 --> 00:04:29,960 Speaker 1: have joined in on that, or the Biden administration does 83 00:04:30,040 --> 00:04:35,239 Speaker 1: something extraordinary to rework how immigration how it all goes. Well, 84 00:04:35,960 --> 00:04:38,279 Speaker 1: likely they're never going to reach that bar no matter what. 85 00:04:38,440 --> 00:04:40,080 Speaker 1: So it seemed that it's going to be around for 86 00:04:40,120 --> 00:04:42,880 Speaker 1: a while. But in the meantime, right after the order 87 00:04:43,160 --> 00:04:45,760 Speaker 1: came down from the judge, this was a scene in 88 00:04:45,839 --> 00:04:51,400 Speaker 1: Yuma on Friday night. I was standing on a levy 89 00:04:51,800 --> 00:04:59,119 Speaker 1: that just watching NonStop a train of families crossing the border. 90 00:04:59,160 --> 00:05:02,640 Speaker 1: There's one area, one little slab of border fence, where 91 00:05:03,040 --> 00:05:06,640 Speaker 1: the Bureau of Reclamation is suing the Border Patrol over 92 00:05:06,720 --> 00:05:09,840 Speaker 1: access to the Colorado River, and there is not fence 93 00:05:09,960 --> 00:05:12,880 Speaker 1: for about a one hundred foot section and that is 94 00:05:12,920 --> 00:05:15,640 Speaker 1: where they are arriving. And the agents who are there 95 00:05:15,640 --> 00:05:18,080 Speaker 1: said it's twenty four hours a day that the numbers 96 00:05:18,080 --> 00:05:20,680 Speaker 1: in that area are only based on how many agents 97 00:05:20,720 --> 00:05:23,440 Speaker 1: are working, not how many people are coming over. Because 98 00:05:23,440 --> 00:05:28,720 Speaker 1: it is a NonStop flow, no chases, nobody hiding. They 99 00:05:28,760 --> 00:05:32,800 Speaker 1: are arriving, walking in holding babies and children, most of them, 100 00:05:33,040 --> 00:05:35,760 Speaker 1: and immediately getting in a single file line like a 101 00:05:35,800 --> 00:05:38,840 Speaker 1: bus stop for Border patrol vans to pull up, load up, 102 00:05:39,160 --> 00:05:41,640 Speaker 1: and then they go off and claim asylum at the 103 00:05:41,760 --> 00:05:44,920 Speaker 1: Border Patrol building in Yuma. And this is going on 104 00:05:45,040 --> 00:05:49,719 Speaker 1: hour after hour after hour. And I asked them, then Peru, 105 00:05:50,320 --> 00:05:56,120 Speaker 1: don David this, where are you from? Mainly Peru and Honduras, 106 00:05:56,160 --> 00:05:58,200 Speaker 1: And then they said they walked a long way to 107 00:05:58,240 --> 00:06:02,480 Speaker 1: get there. Many paidotes large sums of money to get 108 00:06:02,520 --> 00:06:04,839 Speaker 1: them to the border. And there are loopholes in Title 109 00:06:04,880 --> 00:06:07,320 Speaker 1: forty two, and they likely know those who have been 110 00:06:07,320 --> 00:06:08,919 Speaker 1: coached on those and we'll try to do that. But 111 00:06:09,000 --> 00:06:11,480 Speaker 1: many of them, with the court ruling you're going to 112 00:06:11,520 --> 00:06:14,520 Speaker 1: be sent back to at least under Title forty two, 113 00:06:14,560 --> 00:06:17,040 Speaker 1: would be back either into Mexico or the ones in 114 00:06:17,120 --> 00:06:20,479 Speaker 1: Mexico won't take will be flown to their home country. 115 00:06:20,680 --> 00:06:23,720 Speaker 1: And in the San Diego sector, even though they say 116 00:06:24,000 --> 00:06:26,400 Speaker 1: they don't know about a surge, it has been very busy. 117 00:06:26,400 --> 00:06:28,160 Speaker 1: As we were out riding with the Border Patrol, well 118 00:06:28,200 --> 00:06:31,240 Speaker 1: in this area, it's been pretty busy in a sense 119 00:06:31,360 --> 00:06:35,320 Speaker 1: that we're you know, the proximity to the border isn't 120 00:06:35,400 --> 00:06:39,160 Speaker 1: too far, and we also have a route of egress. 121 00:06:39,279 --> 00:06:41,440 Speaker 1: As we were out her teams, they were tracking a 122 00:06:41,520 --> 00:06:44,640 Speaker 1: number of different groups that we're coming across into San Diego. 123 00:06:44,760 --> 00:06:47,720 Speaker 1: And then one other interesting point here while out with 124 00:06:47,760 --> 00:06:51,400 Speaker 1: the border patrol, the chief of the San Diego sector guys, 125 00:06:51,600 --> 00:06:54,239 Speaker 1: you think that that he would say, it keeps Title 126 00:06:54,279 --> 00:06:56,159 Speaker 1: forty two in place that we needed, that we don't 127 00:06:56,160 --> 00:06:58,400 Speaker 1: want to surge. He says, it's time to go. That 128 00:06:58,480 --> 00:07:02,200 Speaker 1: they are constantly getting intelligence from Mexico. They know the 129 00:07:02,440 --> 00:07:05,200 Speaker 1: migrant movement. They've been working with FEMA, that they've got 130 00:07:05,279 --> 00:07:08,920 Speaker 1: the camp set up, that his agents cannot remain at 131 00:07:08,960 --> 00:07:12,400 Speaker 1: this readiness level and this staffing. And every time that 132 00:07:12,840 --> 00:07:15,720 Speaker 1: migrants believe that Title forty two is going to go away, 133 00:07:15,920 --> 00:07:18,080 Speaker 1: they surge and then it goes down. Surgeon goes down. 134 00:07:18,360 --> 00:07:20,440 Speaker 1: He said, we got to do this. We have to 135 00:07:20,440 --> 00:07:23,000 Speaker 1: get things settled eventually. I guess it's probably the yes 136 00:07:23,080 --> 00:07:26,360 Speaker 1: way to say it and to get on with it. 137 00:07:27,280 --> 00:07:32,680 Speaker 1: As as as the date changes, we see movement in Mexico, 138 00:07:32,720 --> 00:07:35,400 Speaker 1: we see movement in other parts of the world in 139 00:07:36,120 --> 00:07:44,120 Speaker 1: preparation for and that constant shift will continue to bring 140 00:07:44,160 --> 00:07:46,760 Speaker 1: additional folks. So he's saying, rip off that band aid. 141 00:07:46,800 --> 00:07:49,440 Speaker 1: We're ready again. A lot of people don't believe that 142 00:07:49,480 --> 00:07:51,840 Speaker 1: they are. And then one final point, the head of 143 00:07:51,840 --> 00:07:54,640 Speaker 1: migrant affairs in Tijuana, I was meeting with him last week. 144 00:07:54,840 --> 00:07:56,920 Speaker 1: He had an interesting view on this whole thing. He said, 145 00:07:56,920 --> 00:08:00,760 Speaker 1: because you know, most people aren't originally coming from Tijuana. 146 00:08:00,880 --> 00:08:03,720 Speaker 1: That's the gathering point where they have to deal with 147 00:08:03,760 --> 00:08:07,360 Speaker 1: everybody before they cross legally or illegally into the US. 148 00:08:07,600 --> 00:08:09,760 Speaker 1: So they've got to have shelters and food and everything 149 00:08:09,800 --> 00:08:12,120 Speaker 1: ready to go there. He said, look, we didn't like 150 00:08:12,640 --> 00:08:17,360 Speaker 1: President Trump's immigration policies, said they were antimigrant, but he said, 151 00:08:17,400 --> 00:08:19,520 Speaker 1: at least we knew where he stood that the door 152 00:08:19,680 --> 00:08:22,640 Speaker 1: was closed. He said with Biden, he goes, we don't 153 00:08:22,680 --> 00:08:26,520 Speaker 1: like these either because it is fluid changing every day. 154 00:08:26,560 --> 00:08:30,000 Speaker 1: The courts are overturning them misunderstanding. Then they've got a 155 00:08:30,040 --> 00:08:33,040 Speaker 1: deal in Tijuana with the crowd showing up there waiting 156 00:08:33,040 --> 00:08:34,840 Speaker 1: to get in, believing they can get in. So the 157 00:08:34,880 --> 00:08:37,520 Speaker 1: head of Migrant of Harrison, we actually like President Trump 158 00:08:37,600 --> 00:08:40,680 Speaker 1: better his policies in that sense because we knew that 159 00:08:40,720 --> 00:08:42,800 Speaker 1: nobody was getting in and we didn't have surgies here 160 00:08:42,840 --> 00:08:45,960 Speaker 1: in Tijuana versus now nobody knows what's going on day 161 00:08:46,000 --> 00:08:49,439 Speaker 1: to day. Now, if they lift Title forty two, all 162 00:08:49,440 --> 00:08:53,000 Speaker 1: these people you're talking about for looking for asylum, they 163 00:08:53,000 --> 00:08:56,080 Speaker 1: would be released into the country, probably most of them, yeah, 164 00:08:56,120 --> 00:08:58,160 Speaker 1: depending on So first they have to have a hearing, 165 00:08:58,360 --> 00:09:01,960 Speaker 1: a credible fear interview, not a hearing, but an interview 166 00:09:02,200 --> 00:09:06,200 Speaker 1: with the border patrol where if the agents believe it's 167 00:09:06,200 --> 00:09:09,800 Speaker 1: a bunch of bull, then goodbye and you're not going 168 00:09:09,840 --> 00:09:12,480 Speaker 1: to go down the road of or with a judge. 169 00:09:12,520 --> 00:09:15,120 Speaker 1: It's with somebody, but the the credible fear interview of 170 00:09:15,200 --> 00:09:17,400 Speaker 1: not going down the asylum process. So there are some 171 00:09:17,520 --> 00:09:20,960 Speaker 1: that they know right off the bat is this is fake. 172 00:09:21,000 --> 00:09:24,199 Speaker 1: We're not going down this road. Others who then the 173 00:09:24,200 --> 00:09:26,720 Speaker 1: current situation and this is where the judge is saying 174 00:09:27,120 --> 00:09:29,679 Speaker 1: this has got a change, is that if you then 175 00:09:29,760 --> 00:09:33,440 Speaker 1: move forward, then you begin the asylum process and you 176 00:09:33,440 --> 00:09:36,439 Speaker 1: get what they call parole, but it's really bail, and 177 00:09:36,480 --> 00:09:39,880 Speaker 1: then you are released out there and many have sponsors 178 00:09:39,880 --> 00:09:43,199 Speaker 1: and they go elsewhere in the US. The issue being 179 00:09:43,559 --> 00:09:47,480 Speaker 1: the mayor of Yuma, he said, one of the demands 180 00:09:47,480 --> 00:09:51,040 Speaker 1: that we have to move forward with dropping Title forty 181 00:09:51,080 --> 00:09:54,600 Speaker 1: two would be that they don't be released into border 182 00:09:54,640 --> 00:09:58,200 Speaker 1: communities like Yuma, San Diego, El Paso. That he said, 183 00:09:58,200 --> 00:10:00,199 Speaker 1: we can't handle them, so we want them to go 184 00:10:00,320 --> 00:10:05,320 Speaker 1: to He listed off Las Vegas, Denver, Los Angeles, Seattle. 185 00:10:05,600 --> 00:10:09,400 Speaker 1: I don't think it's coincidence that the Republican mayor is 186 00:10:09,480 --> 00:10:12,560 Speaker 1: listing off liberal cities that have become sanctuary cities, but 187 00:10:12,600 --> 00:10:15,800 Speaker 1: he's saying ship them off to their Unlikely the Biden 188 00:10:15,800 --> 00:10:18,200 Speaker 1: administration is going to say everybody will get shipped to 189 00:10:18,240 --> 00:10:20,240 Speaker 1: these liberal cities. But that's one of the things they 190 00:10:20,280 --> 00:10:23,240 Speaker 1: want to do. I heard a report that's and they 191 00:10:23,280 --> 00:10:26,480 Speaker 1: talk to some of the migrants on the other side 192 00:10:26,520 --> 00:10:29,520 Speaker 1: to back up the premise is that some of these 193 00:10:29,559 --> 00:10:32,160 Speaker 1: people they've been waiting a long time and they're just 194 00:10:32,200 --> 00:10:35,480 Speaker 1: going to say, screw it, I'll just run across, you know. 195 00:10:35,520 --> 00:10:38,880 Speaker 1: And that's what the border patrol chief said. And the 196 00:10:39,040 --> 00:10:41,840 Speaker 1: longer the pressure is on the southern side, the more 197 00:10:41,920 --> 00:10:45,840 Speaker 1: illegal crossings they get. Because you go to the port 198 00:10:45,840 --> 00:10:48,720 Speaker 1: of entry, they tell you know where you Title forty two, 199 00:10:48,720 --> 00:10:51,200 Speaker 1: we're not going to hear you. You go illegally into 200 00:10:51,240 --> 00:10:53,520 Speaker 1: the US and you're going to meet a border patrol 201 00:10:53,559 --> 00:10:56,400 Speaker 1: agent and you can say asylum and try to begin 202 00:10:56,480 --> 00:10:59,280 Speaker 1: that process. So that's what they're doing. Back during the 203 00:10:59,280 --> 00:11:03,040 Speaker 1: Clinton administration, they really fortified the port of entry areas, 204 00:11:03,400 --> 00:11:06,480 Speaker 1: believing that if we do that, nobody will be crazy 205 00:11:06,559 --> 00:11:09,120 Speaker 1: enough to go through the desert. And of course hundreds 206 00:11:09,160 --> 00:11:12,040 Speaker 1: of thousands are getting through anyway without. Yeah, but look 207 00:11:12,040 --> 00:11:13,520 Speaker 1: when they've done, they go through it, they go through 208 00:11:13,520 --> 00:11:15,640 Speaker 1: the desert. That policy didn't work out all that well. 209 00:11:15,640 --> 00:11:18,920 Speaker 1: That you go around ote Mesa and then that area 210 00:11:19,000 --> 00:11:21,559 Speaker 1: and it's fortified up the yin Yang, but you go 211 00:11:21,600 --> 00:11:23,600 Speaker 1: out in the middle of nowhere and there's not a 212 00:11:23,600 --> 00:11:26,200 Speaker 1: lot out there, and that's why they're coming through one 213 00:11:26,280 --> 00:11:29,040 Speaker 1: hundred and twenty degree heat through the desert for many miles. 214 00:11:29,040 --> 00:11:31,839 Speaker 1: And that the beginning of the report, you were at 215 00:11:31,840 --> 00:11:35,040 Speaker 1: a location where there's just a one hundred foot section 216 00:11:35,120 --> 00:11:38,400 Speaker 1: of sole of the border patrol just sits at. By 217 00:11:38,440 --> 00:11:40,600 Speaker 1: putting up on Twitter, you can part is it to 218 00:11:40,600 --> 00:11:42,840 Speaker 1: build a hundred feet of fence? Oh no, it's not. 219 00:11:42,960 --> 00:11:44,960 Speaker 1: It's not that. It's that it's caught up in the 220 00:11:45,000 --> 00:11:48,760 Speaker 1: courts of federal agency suing federal agency over access to 221 00:11:48,760 --> 00:11:51,240 Speaker 1: the Colorado River, and so they've had to leave it 222 00:11:51,280 --> 00:11:53,880 Speaker 1: open at this point. By the way, I was down 223 00:11:53,960 --> 00:11:56,920 Speaker 1: that south of Ojo, which is a little town in Arizona, 224 00:11:57,040 --> 00:11:59,760 Speaker 1: and we were out working on this story and we're 225 00:12:00,000 --> 00:12:02,200 Speaker 1: having along the border fence. One of the doors on 226 00:12:02,240 --> 00:12:05,040 Speaker 1: the fence was wide open. You could just walk back 227 00:12:05,080 --> 00:12:07,960 Speaker 1: and forth. Nobody was closing it. Yeah, it was just 228 00:12:08,080 --> 00:12:10,280 Speaker 1: they had swung it. It It was it's trillions of dollars 229 00:12:10,280 --> 00:12:14,360 Speaker 1: attacks money locked the door. Yeah, that area was the 230 00:12:14,400 --> 00:12:17,520 Speaker 1: new border fence that has been built and the door 231 00:12:17,600 --> 00:12:19,960 Speaker 1: was wide open. All right, Alex, thank you very much. 232 00:12:20,040 --> 00:12:22,880 Speaker 1: You got it. Thanks guys, Alex Stone, ABC News for 233 00:12:23,000 --> 00:12:26,240 Speaker 1: KFI covering the border. End of course, Title forty two. 234 00:12:26,679 --> 00:12:29,719 Speaker 1: By the way, Political Harvard released to survey fifty five 235 00:12:29,720 --> 00:12:33,200 Speaker 1: percent of Americans a pose ending the use of this 236 00:12:33,280 --> 00:12:35,800 Speaker 1: public health order Title forty two. I don't know that 237 00:12:35,840 --> 00:12:37,760 Speaker 1: a lot of people even understand what has probably even 238 00:12:37,760 --> 00:12:40,640 Speaker 1: explained to them when the polster calls forty five percent 239 00:12:40,679 --> 00:12:42,640 Speaker 1: think it should end. All right, We got more coming up, 240 00:12:42,720 --> 00:12:45,560 Speaker 1: John and can caffeine. Right this afternoon, the mayor of 241 00:12:45,960 --> 00:12:50,800 Speaker 1: Anaheim resigned. His name is Harry Sidhu We had mentioned 242 00:12:50,800 --> 00:12:54,920 Speaker 1: this story last week. There was a federal investigation into 243 00:12:55,040 --> 00:13:00,000 Speaker 1: his corruption in the sale of Angels Stadium. The Angels 244 00:13:00,120 --> 00:13:02,880 Speaker 1: purchased the stadium from the City of Anaheim, and the 245 00:13:02,920 --> 00:13:07,280 Speaker 1: allegation is that at least two occasions, the mayor provided 246 00:13:07,400 --> 00:13:11,560 Speaker 1: a little inside information to the Angels in exchange, she 247 00:13:11,760 --> 00:13:15,199 Speaker 1: was looking for how about a million dollars for my campaigns? 248 00:13:16,559 --> 00:13:23,840 Speaker 1: That's that's that's a cricket behavior. They that's just basic corruption. 249 00:13:25,000 --> 00:13:27,000 Speaker 1: He's got a lawyer whose name I swear. I think 250 00:13:27,040 --> 00:13:30,120 Speaker 1: he's been involved defending a lot of politicians. Paul S mayor. 251 00:13:31,000 --> 00:13:34,160 Speaker 1: Mayor said, you has always, as his foremost priority, acted 252 00:13:34,160 --> 00:13:37,560 Speaker 1: in the best interests of the city of Anaheim. Boys, 253 00:13:37,559 --> 00:13:40,760 Speaker 1: that boiler plate, isn't it forms to allow the great 254 00:13:40,760 --> 00:13:43,160 Speaker 1: city to move forward without distraction? How are you said 255 00:13:43,240 --> 00:13:47,320 Speaker 1: you has resigned distraction? Sure? Actually, you know he's got 256 00:13:47,360 --> 00:13:49,440 Speaker 1: to uh. I think he's got to hide his money, 257 00:13:50,000 --> 00:13:52,640 Speaker 1: put it in an account. So if they give him 258 00:13:52,640 --> 00:13:54,640 Speaker 1: a big fat fine or he's got to pay some 259 00:13:54,760 --> 00:13:58,560 Speaker 1: kind of damages, he's got to put his assets somewhere else. 260 00:13:59,400 --> 00:14:02,360 Speaker 1: But this is the Elastigate City Council meeting. And his 261 00:14:02,400 --> 00:14:06,280 Speaker 1: seat would have been declared vacant if he missed tomorrow's meeting. Anyway, 262 00:14:06,720 --> 00:14:12,200 Speaker 1: he's also allegedly got himself trying to mess with the 263 00:14:12,280 --> 00:14:16,880 Speaker 1: grand jury investigation to all this is another allegation. Yeah, 264 00:14:16,880 --> 00:14:21,640 Speaker 1: so look, these are the kinds of people that get 265 00:14:21,680 --> 00:14:26,840 Speaker 1: attracted to serving in politics. Criminals. You know, it's like 266 00:14:26,840 --> 00:14:29,840 Speaker 1: we used to marvel just how many people become sex 267 00:14:29,920 --> 00:14:34,600 Speaker 1: molesters among teachers and priests. Well, of course they do, 268 00:14:34,640 --> 00:14:38,120 Speaker 1: because that's where you can get access to children. And 269 00:14:39,160 --> 00:14:42,920 Speaker 1: of course you have these financial crooks who run for office. 270 00:14:42,960 --> 00:14:45,520 Speaker 1: That's how you get access to tax money. Look at 271 00:14:45,560 --> 00:14:48,520 Speaker 1: all the criminals that have gotten connected to high speed rail. 272 00:14:49,480 --> 00:14:51,960 Speaker 1: You have an unending flow of money and it's not 273 00:14:52,080 --> 00:14:55,520 Speaker 1: hard behind the scenes to manipulate and get your share, 274 00:14:56,040 --> 00:14:58,360 Speaker 1: get your kick back, your cut. It looks like a 275 00:14:58,360 --> 00:15:02,040 Speaker 1: lot of this came from an FBI investigation where they 276 00:15:02,040 --> 00:15:05,360 Speaker 1: started listening in. The Times ran a story the other 277 00:15:05,440 --> 00:15:08,920 Speaker 1: day that a year and a half ago, two powerbrokers 278 00:15:08,920 --> 00:15:12,240 Speaker 1: in Anaheim discussed a big question along the phone. Who 279 00:15:12,280 --> 00:15:15,320 Speaker 1: should they invite to a secretive gathering of Anaheim business leaders, 280 00:15:15,320 --> 00:15:18,240 Speaker 1: consultants and politicians. It would be a retreat at a 281 00:15:18,280 --> 00:15:21,200 Speaker 1: local hotel, and one of them describe their small group 282 00:15:21,240 --> 00:15:23,800 Speaker 1: as a cabal attended to be limited to people they 283 00:15:23,800 --> 00:15:27,960 Speaker 1: could trust, quote family members only. But apparently the FBI 284 00:15:28,280 --> 00:15:32,560 Speaker 1: was listening to this phone conversation. Toddah Meant was head 285 00:15:32,600 --> 00:15:36,480 Speaker 1: of the Anaheim City Anaheim Chamber of Commerce, and they 286 00:15:36,520 --> 00:15:40,600 Speaker 1: were talking about with an unnamed political consultant, which city 287 00:15:40,720 --> 00:15:44,280 Speaker 1: council members they should bring into the group so that 288 00:15:44,320 --> 00:15:46,960 Speaker 1: they can be parted with a secret cabal. Which criminals 289 00:15:46,960 --> 00:15:50,880 Speaker 1: can we trust? Yeah, I don't know. Well, what's funny 290 00:15:50,920 --> 00:15:54,200 Speaker 1: is these guys never and I don't know what their 291 00:15:54,280 --> 00:15:56,960 Speaker 1: truth is. They'd never think they're going to get caught 292 00:15:57,080 --> 00:15:59,920 Speaker 1: or someone's wearing a wire or there's a wire tap going. 293 00:16:01,880 --> 00:16:05,040 Speaker 1: And so it makes me wonder how much do they 294 00:16:05,040 --> 00:16:08,760 Speaker 1: get away with? Because often they all seem to be confident, 295 00:16:09,120 --> 00:16:12,600 Speaker 1: and there's so many of these of these criminals. Right, 296 00:16:12,640 --> 00:16:15,240 Speaker 1: we got we got three city council people, got a 297 00:16:15,280 --> 00:16:19,160 Speaker 1: deputy mayor, we got you know, we got this crowd 298 00:16:19,200 --> 00:16:24,200 Speaker 1: in Anaheim, and they seem very free and easy about 299 00:16:24,240 --> 00:16:26,560 Speaker 1: doing this stuff, and it's it seems to be frequent. 300 00:16:26,880 --> 00:16:30,080 Speaker 1: So how much is everybody getting away with because nobody 301 00:16:30,120 --> 00:16:32,560 Speaker 1: seems afraid that they're going to get caught. They know 302 00:16:32,600 --> 00:16:34,920 Speaker 1: it could happen, and they try to take precautions, but 303 00:16:35,000 --> 00:16:37,520 Speaker 1: they still keep plunging on. I guess, I guess because 304 00:16:37,520 --> 00:16:40,840 Speaker 1: the reward is so great. Yeah, you know, politicians come 305 00:16:40,880 --> 00:16:43,040 Speaker 1: from this vein. We even hurt Joe Biden complaint, but 306 00:16:43,080 --> 00:16:45,280 Speaker 1: we got elected to the Senate. That's all the money 307 00:16:45,320 --> 00:16:48,240 Speaker 1: they pay me. They really see themselves at the seat 308 00:16:48,280 --> 00:16:51,800 Speaker 1: of power. And sometimes they alway got lobbyists lined up 309 00:16:51,880 --> 00:16:55,120 Speaker 1: right Tucker's. So they always believe that they should be 310 00:16:55,160 --> 00:16:57,680 Speaker 1: paid more than they're paid by the taxpayers. So they're 311 00:16:57,720 --> 00:17:00,680 Speaker 1: looking for another route, another avenue. And that's why a 312 00:17:00,680 --> 00:17:03,320 Speaker 1: lot of them go down this road. Because I'm owed 313 00:17:03,400 --> 00:17:07,080 Speaker 1: this because I'm the powermaker. I make the deals. I 314 00:17:07,280 --> 00:17:11,600 Speaker 1: make things happen. I like people who volunteer to work 315 00:17:11,880 --> 00:17:14,600 Speaker 1: in a certain industry and then a bitch that the 316 00:17:14,640 --> 00:17:17,040 Speaker 1: pay is not good enough. Yeah, and then they'll tell you, 317 00:17:17,200 --> 00:17:20,159 Speaker 1: I gave my life to publics. There this, we know 318 00:17:20,200 --> 00:17:22,119 Speaker 1: why you gave your life to public service. And it 319 00:17:22,119 --> 00:17:24,280 Speaker 1: turns out Biden's another one of those. But he and 320 00:17:24,320 --> 00:17:27,440 Speaker 1: his son chacking down China and Ukraine and who knows 321 00:17:27,480 --> 00:17:29,880 Speaker 1: who where else, which is why I don't get too 322 00:17:29,880 --> 00:17:33,439 Speaker 1: worked up when you know, media outfits complain about the 323 00:17:33,440 --> 00:17:36,240 Speaker 1: Trumps and the Crusoe's all these billionaires trying to buy 324 00:17:36,240 --> 00:17:39,320 Speaker 1: their way at office to further their own Sometimes it's 325 00:17:39,359 --> 00:17:42,200 Speaker 1: not they're wealthy enough to not care about being mayor 326 00:17:42,560 --> 00:17:46,040 Speaker 1: or president, but maybe they've decided it so ugly they 327 00:17:46,160 --> 00:17:49,200 Speaker 1: want to try to do something to fix things, whereas 328 00:17:49,600 --> 00:17:51,359 Speaker 1: you have to be a little careful when you have. 329 00:17:51,520 --> 00:17:53,800 Speaker 1: I mean, there are some types that really, I'm sure 330 00:17:53,880 --> 00:17:57,280 Speaker 1: John would say few that do want to do good 331 00:17:57,320 --> 00:17:59,640 Speaker 1: even though they're not paid much and they're not worth much. 332 00:18:00,320 --> 00:18:03,199 Speaker 1: Then there's another crowd that knows, yes, this is a 333 00:18:03,280 --> 00:18:05,720 Speaker 1: chance at least to be pamper. Remember Tony Vlaar like 334 00:18:05,840 --> 00:18:09,760 Speaker 1: going to the basketball games and all the celebrities being 335 00:18:09,760 --> 00:18:12,280 Speaker 1: on stage with Rihanna. Yeah, I don't know that he 336 00:18:12,320 --> 00:18:14,280 Speaker 1: I don't think he took bribes. I don't know, but 337 00:18:14,600 --> 00:18:16,680 Speaker 1: maybe not. But maybe that was what he got out 338 00:18:16,720 --> 00:18:19,480 Speaker 1: of it. He enjoyed this sort of celebrity aspects something. Yeah, 339 00:18:19,840 --> 00:18:22,000 Speaker 1: he was an ego bag I think. I don't know, 340 00:18:22,280 --> 00:18:24,399 Speaker 1: because now he's a lobbyist, which is the other side 341 00:18:24,400 --> 00:18:26,240 Speaker 1: of the slimy business. Yes, they've got to make it. 342 00:18:26,640 --> 00:18:30,400 Speaker 1: The lobbyists write the checks for the dirty politician, so 343 00:18:30,800 --> 00:18:34,000 Speaker 1: who knows? Yeah, all right, so the guys are just 344 00:18:34,080 --> 00:18:38,119 Speaker 1: lucky they don't get caught. They have paused the sale 345 00:18:38,119 --> 00:18:41,919 Speaker 1: of the stadium for sixty days while they can search 346 00:18:42,040 --> 00:18:44,480 Speaker 1: through this whole thing involving the mayor. And now the 347 00:18:44,520 --> 00:18:47,240 Speaker 1: angels are not accused of any wrongdoing. I don't even 348 00:18:47,280 --> 00:18:49,760 Speaker 1: know that they paid him the million dollars. It's not 349 00:18:49,840 --> 00:18:52,960 Speaker 1: clear from what I'm reading. I haven't seen them implicated 350 00:18:53,080 --> 00:18:56,480 Speaker 1: in the scam, right, so maybe it didn't go far 351 00:18:56,600 --> 00:19:00,680 Speaker 1: enough where just not enough time passed or somebody would 352 00:19:00,680 --> 00:19:03,800 Speaker 1: have to write the million dollar check. Yeah, all right, 353 00:19:03,840 --> 00:19:06,040 Speaker 1: we got more com John and kind All right, Well, 354 00:19:06,119 --> 00:19:09,600 Speaker 1: usually it's videos of police officers beating people, but this 355 00:19:09,680 --> 00:19:13,240 Speaker 1: time it's firefighters.

And that's where 384 00:20:43,760 --> 00:20:48,560 Speaker 1: he was on Saturday, checking out for his own personal 385 00:20:48,800 --> 00:20:51,400 Speaker 1: self what's going on with the RVs that have been 386 00:20:51,440 --> 00:20:55,679 Speaker 1: parked there.

BSP Research, a Los Angeles 454 00:24:49,880 --> 00:24:52,679 Speaker 1: based polling firm, found that fifty five percent of Latino 455 00:24:52,760 --> 00:24:56,040 Speaker 1: voters have a favorable perception of Vienneuava compared to just 456 00:24:56,080 --> 00:24:59,760 Speaker 1: twenty four percent who view him unfavorably. The research has 457 00:24:59,800 --> 00:25:02,359 Speaker 1: to me it's one point two million Latinos will cast 458 00:25:02,440 --> 00:25:05,000 Speaker 1: votes in the city of La alone during the general election, 459 00:25:05,440 --> 00:25:10,040 Speaker 1: equal to the record turnout for the twenty eighteen presidential election. 460 00:25:10,640 --> 00:25:12,320 Speaker 1: There wasn't a twenty eighteen presidential Like, it must be 461 00:25:12,359 --> 00:25:15,040 Speaker 1: a misprint twenty sixteen. Is that what they mean? I 462 00:25:15,080 --> 00:25:17,160 Speaker 1: don't know. I don't know if they've actually put twenty eighteen. 463 00:25:17,160 --> 00:25:20,639 Speaker 1: There was not a twenty eighteen presidential whoever wrote this, 464 00:25:20,720 --> 00:25:23,760 Speaker 1: I just read it. Yeah, Like, that's not right. Roughly 465 00:25:23,800 --> 00:25:26,680 Speaker 1: forty percent of La County residents of voting HR Latino, 466 00:25:27,560 --> 00:25:29,720 Speaker 1: and they might vote for I mean, he's got like 467 00:25:29,760 --> 00:25:32,359 Speaker 1: eight opponents, doesn't he, I think, which means that splits 468 00:25:32,400 --> 00:25:35,720 Speaker 1: the vote eight ways. Nobody knows any of those guys, 469 00:25:36,160 --> 00:25:38,960 Speaker 1: none of them have very much plus one vote and 470 00:25:38,960 --> 00:25:42,200 Speaker 1: went out right, yeah he could, he could.

People want an end to crime and homelessness. 475 00:25:54,760 --> 00:25:59,800 Speaker 1: That's that's that's the issues of progressives. Most people, in fact, 476 00:26:00,119 --> 00:26:03,440 Speaker 1: nine percent of people are not progressives. It's not their issues, 477 00:26:03,600 --> 00:26:07,760 Speaker 1: it's the issues in that insular, ancestrous world of La 478 00:26:07,880 --> 00:26:12,080 Speaker 1: Times writers, editors and columnists. That's your issue. Now out 479 00:26:12,119 --> 00:26:14,560 Speaker 1: in the real world. I don't know a single person, 480 00:26:14,720 --> 00:26:17,119 Speaker 1: not a single person who isn't set up with the 481 00:26:17,160 --> 00:26:20,679 Speaker 1: crime in the homelessness. I honestly well, they try to 482 00:26:20,680 --> 00:26:23,800 Speaker 1: paint him as like Trump. That's how they that's how 483 00:26:23,840 --> 00:26:28,119 Speaker 1: the Times basically, yeah, it's not flying presents via a 484 00:26:28,160 --> 00:26:30,400 Speaker 1: waiver and they can't believe he could win in La 485 00:26:30,440 --> 00:26:34,359 Speaker 1: County lest One. Again, you can't smear everybody, you can't. 486 00:26:34,400 --> 00:26:37,359 Speaker 1: You're all they do is they smear shows you they 487 00:26:37,400 --> 00:26:41,479 Speaker 1: have no influence. That's the key takeaway here. Nobody cares 488 00:26:41,480 --> 00:26:45,119 Speaker 1: what all their dopey columnists turn out and they're excited 489 00:26:45,160 --> 00:26:48,600 Speaker 1: headlines about another La sheriff's scandal. Do you think all 490 00:26:48,640 --> 00:26:51,359 Speaker 1: the blue collar middle class people look around see crime rising. 491 00:26:51,359 --> 00:26:53,200 Speaker 1: They see this guy on the news because he's trying 492 00:26:53,240 --> 00:26:55,639 Speaker 1: to clean up the homeless, Adventice and your West Side, 493 00:26:55,880 --> 00:26:58,879 Speaker 1: and he's talking about a DA that does not prosecute people. 494 00:26:59,200 --> 00:27:03,040 Speaker 1: That resates with people. These scandals are all full of minutia. 495 00:27:03,160 --> 00:27:07,120 Speaker 1: You're right about that. Andrew Acosta is a democratic political consultant, 496 00:27:07,800 --> 00:27:11,960 Speaker 1: and he says just because he says outlandish things, and 497 00:27:12,119 --> 00:27:14,640 Speaker 1: calumnists in the La Times right about him. I don't 498 00:27:14,640 --> 00:27:17,040 Speaker 1: know if that makes him a dead man walking because 499 00:27:17,040 --> 00:27:20,359 Speaker 1: he doesn't think residents are closely following media coverage of 500 00:27:20,400 --> 00:27:24,720 Speaker 1: the department scandals. For example, one of the scandals is 501 00:27:24,880 --> 00:27:27,960 Speaker 1: he got pissed off at some La Times journalists over 502 00:27:28,880 --> 00:27:31,080 Speaker 1: a leak. And it's like, good, be pissed off at 503 00:27:31,160 --> 00:27:33,879 Speaker 1: La Times journalists. I am too. If the and A 504 00:27:33,920 --> 00:27:36,600 Speaker 1: Wave starts yelling at the La Times during a press conference, 505 00:27:36,640 --> 00:27:39,359 Speaker 1: I'm right there with him. I'm yelling at my TV said, 506 00:27:39,520 --> 00:27:42,200 Speaker 1: he gets the yell out him in person. Great, he's 507 00:27:42,280 --> 00:27:45,960 Speaker 1: my guy. Keep yelling at the La Times journalists. Go ahead. 508 00:27:46,320 --> 00:27:49,600 Speaker 1: It was fantastic when he took on this topias, honestly, 509 00:27:49,800 --> 00:27:54,440 Speaker 1: because that's another scourge. The entire La Times unit is 510 00:27:54,440 --> 00:27:57,880 Speaker 1: a scourge. So they tried to make him look anti Latino. 511 00:27:58,200 --> 00:28:01,879 Speaker 1: Oh right, yea been a Wave is anti Latino, right, sure? 512 00:28:02,119 --> 00:28:04,919 Speaker 1: Sell that one. The one thing he did and we 513 00:28:04,920 --> 00:28:06,919 Speaker 1: don't complain about it now. He said he was going 514 00:28:06,960 --> 00:28:09,240 Speaker 1: to do is get immigration out of the jails. He 515 00:28:09,400 --> 00:28:11,920 Speaker 1: just does not believe in that aspect. Yeah, that's why 516 00:28:11,920 --> 00:28:13,800 Speaker 1: I was suspicious of him at first. But you know what, 517 00:28:15,000 --> 00:28:17,320 Speaker 1: because he ran on that and that to do to win. 518 00:28:17,359 --> 00:28:20,440 Speaker 1: But he's not. In four years as sheriff. It's more 519 00:28:20,440 --> 00:28:23,000 Speaker 1: about law and to order criminal justice. It's more about 520 00:28:23,200 --> 00:28:26,160 Speaker 1: the homeless problem. Yeah. I see bodies in the streets 521 00:28:26,600 --> 00:28:29,880 Speaker 1: and I see criminals smash eppisite of Gascon. When he ran, 522 00:28:29,960 --> 00:28:31,640 Speaker 1: we thought, oh, no, we're getting one of these left 523 00:28:31,640 --> 00:28:35,400 Speaker 1: wing waccos. Instead he turned out to be to make 524 00:28:35,440 --> 00:28:37,960 Speaker 1: sense and common sense, and then with Gascon it was 525 00:28:38,000 --> 00:28:40,040 Speaker 1: the other way around and not us. But people thought 526 00:28:40,080 --> 00:28:42,120 Speaker 1: he was, Oh, he's going to be a moderate. Another 527 00:28:42,160 --> 00:28:44,440 Speaker 1: thing that they said. One of the criticisms, I think 528 00:28:44,440 --> 00:28:46,760 Speaker 1: it came from one of his no name opponents, is 529 00:28:46,760 --> 00:28:50,000 Speaker 1: that he doesn't get along with the LA County Supervisors. Good. 530 00:28:50,880 --> 00:28:52,720 Speaker 1: That's great. I don't want him getting along with the 531 00:28:52,800 --> 00:28:57,400 Speaker 1: LA County Supervisors. Those five women are insane. Nobody should 532 00:28:57,400 --> 00:28:58,960 Speaker 1: get along with them. If I was the sheriff, I 533 00:28:59,000 --> 00:29:01,440 Speaker 1: wouldn't get along with him either. They're crazy, they're nuts. 534 00:29:01,440 --> 00:29:04,520 Speaker 1: They're a bunch of woke heads. He's not going to 535 00:29:04,560 --> 00:29:07,280 Speaker 1: get along with them. We got more coming up. John 536 00:29:07,280 --> 00:29:10,520 Speaker 1: and Ken show Caffine and what's a shocking video out 537 00:29:10,520 --> 00:29:14,720 Speaker 1: of Silver Lake. It shows from firefighters punching and kicking 538 00:29:14,760 --> 00:29:19,440 Speaker 1: a person at La City fire Station number six. They 539 00:29:19,440 --> 00:29:22,640 Speaker 1: say he was trying to break into the station, supposedly 540 00:29:22,680 --> 00:29:27,440 Speaker 1: a vagrant transient. This this fire station surrounded by homeless encampments. 541 00:29:27,800 --> 00:29:30,440 Speaker 1: We will talk to Steve Gregory, who always gets a 542 00:29:30,480 --> 00:29:32,800 Speaker 1: good word from police and fire in La. Hold on, 543 00:29:32,880 --> 00:29:35,040 Speaker 1: I'm enjoying watching the fireman beat the crap out of 544 00:29:35,040 --> 00:29:40,440 Speaker 1: this guy. Oh oh that's great. Look at that. That'll 545 00:29:40,480 --> 00:29:44,200 Speaker 1: teach you you're stupid, bastard may be disciplined. Well you 546 00:29:44,280 --> 00:29:51,160 Speaker 1: mighty thanks for the special effects we have. We have 547 00:29:51,200 --> 00:29:54,320 Speaker 1: a live cafive microphone at the scene. Well is this 548 00:29:54,400 --> 00:29:57,400 Speaker 1: a coincidence at the three stories in a day here 549 00:29:57,720 --> 00:30:01,320 Speaker 1: grow of people fighting? Or did we hit that tipping 550 00:30:01,360 --> 00:30:04,520 Speaker 1: point now it's all at war? Could be I mean, 551 00:30:04,560 --> 00:30:06,880 Speaker 1: we could be reaching pure chaos in society if we 552 00:30:06,920 --> 00:30:09,680 Speaker 1: continue down this road. Yeah that this lot wants to 553 00:30:09,680 --> 00:30:14,840 Speaker 1: take us with no jails, no penalties, no consequences. In fact, 554 00:30:14,960 --> 00:30:16,880 Speaker 1: we'll probably get to this later. They also going to 555 00:30:16,920 --> 00:30:18,520 Speaker 1: know times it's done. Another one of those stories about 556 00:30:18,560 --> 00:30:20,560 Speaker 1: just let the druggies lie everywhere they want, let them 557 00:30:20,560 --> 00:30:22,880 Speaker 1: shoot up, and we'll just stand by to make sure 558 00:30:22,920 --> 00:30:30,120 Speaker 1: they don't die. Thank you, stupid. They are so stupid 559 00:30:30,120 --> 00:30:33,360 Speaker 1: at that newspaper. Yes, let them do what they want 560 00:30:33,480 --> 00:30:37,480 Speaker 1: and we'll just watch them. Something happened. Trump ran for 561 00:30:37,560 --> 00:30:39,880 Speaker 1: president and they went way up the deep end out 562 00:30:39,920 --> 00:30:42,760 Speaker 1: they've taken it even further away. We talked about this 563 00:30:42,800 --> 00:30:44,960 Speaker 1: a few weeks ago, that the guy that bought the 564 00:30:44,960 --> 00:30:47,280 Speaker 1: paper put his woke daughter in charge, and I think 565 00:30:47,360 --> 00:30:51,200 Speaker 1: she's really been pushing all of these angles at Somebody's 566 00:30:51,200 --> 00:30:55,200 Speaker 1: gotta called daddy up. If you remember back on this 567 00:30:55,280 --> 00:30:59,200 Speaker 1: show when the governor was good old Arnold Schwartzenegger and 568 00:30:59,400 --> 00:31:02,480 Speaker 1: the Global Warming Solutions Act, remember that that was two 569 00:31:02,480 --> 00:31:07,040 Speaker 1: thousand and six. I yes, wow. Sixteen years later. Anyway, 570 00:31:07,440 --> 00:31:10,160 Speaker 1: it became known that Schwarzenegger was flying around on a 571 00:31:10,240 --> 00:31:11,840 Speaker 1: private plane. It took a lot of heat for that. 572 00:31:11,880 --> 00:31:14,040 Speaker 1: In fact, even was on the show taking heat for that. 573 00:31:14,880 --> 00:31:17,680 Speaker 1: His response often was, I have the Githan off set, 574 00:31:18,480 --> 00:31:24,680 Speaker 1: you see, I I sponsor a forest in Oregon or something. Okay, okay, 575 00:31:24,720 --> 00:31:28,240 Speaker 1: this is the thing that he was paying money to 576 00:31:28,400 --> 00:31:32,400 Speaker 1: maintain a group of trees that were already there. So 577 00:31:32,680 --> 00:31:34,920 Speaker 1: how is it you blow out all this greenhouse gas 578 00:31:35,000 --> 00:31:37,320 Speaker 1: out of the back of your private plane, but you 579 00:31:37,480 --> 00:31:41,360 Speaker 1: pay for what the watering of the forest or the 580 00:31:41,640 --> 00:31:44,280 Speaker 1: trimming of the trees, and the trees are supposed to 581 00:31:44,280 --> 00:31:50,560 Speaker 1: stu sucking your carbon dioxide. It was stupid. Sixteen years later, 582 00:31:50,800 --> 00:31:53,520 Speaker 1: the New York Times, one of their environment years later, 583 00:31:53,560 --> 00:31:57,600 Speaker 1: a climate reporter by the name of Maggie Astor has 584 00:31:57,640 --> 00:32:01,480 Speaker 1: reported the carbon offsets often don't come close to meeting 585 00:32:01,480 --> 00:32:06,720 Speaker 1: their promise benefits. That's a shocker. Took him sixteen years. 586 00:32:07,040 --> 00:32:10,680 Speaker 1: We knew in sixteen seconds it was a scam. God, 587 00:32:10,720 --> 00:32:13,200 Speaker 1: I should have invested in a carbon offset company. You 588 00:32:13,240 --> 00:32:16,800 Speaker 1: know how rich we'd be. Oh, it's an appealing position, 589 00:32:16,840 --> 00:32:19,200 Speaker 1: a proposition. She wrote, the promise that for a trivial 590 00:32:19,280 --> 00:32:21,160 Speaker 1: amount of money, you can go about your business with 591 00:32:21,200 --> 00:32:23,680 Speaker 1: no climate guilt. But if it sounds too good to 592 00:32:23,680 --> 00:32:25,720 Speaker 1: be true, that's because for at least me, for now, 593 00:32:25,840 --> 00:32:28,720 Speaker 1: it is too good to be That's what's funny. It 594 00:32:28,760 --> 00:32:31,600 Speaker 1: was all about the guilt. It wasn't about that it 595 00:32:31,680 --> 00:32:34,880 Speaker 1: actually improves the atmosphere in any way, because it didn't. 596 00:32:35,720 --> 00:32:39,520 Speaker 1: Now it was obviously a failure. Now they're saying, well, 597 00:32:39,760 --> 00:32:43,120 Speaker 1: it was a failure, but it was just about relieving guilt. Again, 598 00:32:43,360 --> 00:32:46,719 Speaker 1: noticed the religious component here. It's like lighting a candle 599 00:32:46,760 --> 00:32:51,400 Speaker 1: and saying a prayer, going into a confessed to it's virtue. Yes, 600 00:32:51,520 --> 00:32:57,200 Speaker 1: I've heard some carbon offsets, so I'm fine. Many projects 601 00:32:57,240 --> 00:32:59,440 Speaker 1: do not come even close to one hundred percent of 602 00:32:59,480 --> 00:33:02,920 Speaker 1: benefits they promise. Yeah, she said that. It was a 603 00:33:02,960 --> 00:33:06,800 Speaker 1: myriad of reasons for this. They overstated their reductions, they're 604 00:33:06,880 --> 00:33:09,960 Speaker 1: unlikely to achieve their reduction claims, or they couldn't be 605 00:33:10,000 --> 00:33:12,120 Speaker 1: accurately measured, which is another good one. Do you know what? 606 00:33:12,320 --> 00:33:17,280 Speaker 1: And the key to this always is when you'd ask people, well, 607 00:33:17,320 --> 00:33:21,320 Speaker 1: how does it work? They never could explain it. It's like, 608 00:33:21,480 --> 00:33:24,320 Speaker 1: how does it work that you could lower the atmospheric 609 00:33:24,360 --> 00:33:28,040 Speaker 1: temperature by buying the rights to a forest in Oregon 610 00:33:28,400 --> 00:33:30,920 Speaker 1: or the rights to twenty trees or eighty trees or 611 00:33:30,960 --> 00:33:33,920 Speaker 1: whatever the hell this scam was. It was a scam. 612 00:33:34,280 --> 00:33:39,160 Speaker 1: People were creating companies selling rights to trees. Well, here's 613 00:33:39,160 --> 00:33:44,360 Speaker 1: a funny example, California's carbon offset program had one hundred 614 00:33:44,400 --> 00:33:47,920 Speaker 1: and fifty thousand acres of forest set aside. Well they're 615 00:33:47,920 --> 00:33:55,720 Speaker 1: all gone. They were destroyed by wildfires. Oh well, do 616 00:33:55,760 --> 00:33:58,000 Speaker 1: you get your money back? She also says if you 617 00:33:58,080 --> 00:34:00,720 Speaker 1: pay someone to preserve a grove, but they were never 618 00:34:00,800 --> 00:34:05,760 Speaker 1: actually planning to cut it down exactly. That's what I 619 00:34:05,800 --> 00:34:07,840 Speaker 1: was always saying. That's the first thing I thought of. 620 00:34:08,080 --> 00:34:10,920 Speaker 1: These trees already exist, So what that you're going to 621 00:34:10,960 --> 00:34:13,040 Speaker 1: continue to exist? They're gonna exist, I mean for two 622 00:34:13,040 --> 00:34:17,319 Speaker 1: thousand years. Do you remember that we we mocked it. 623 00:34:17,440 --> 00:34:19,760 Speaker 1: I sold the rights to the trees in my backyard, 624 00:34:19,760 --> 00:34:22,600 Speaker 1: in my old house, right, and we got we got 625 00:34:23,000 --> 00:34:25,879 Speaker 1: people sent What did they send in? They send in money? 626 00:34:25,920 --> 00:34:28,320 Speaker 1: What did we do here? No, it was not money. 627 00:34:28,360 --> 00:34:32,359 Speaker 1: I don't remember. I remember. I wasn't it money? Well 628 00:34:32,400 --> 00:34:35,000 Speaker 1: I should have charged. They were my trees. And I 629 00:34:35,080 --> 00:34:36,920 Speaker 1: remember I put up I say, you put up signs 630 00:34:36,920 --> 00:34:39,760 Speaker 1: on the trees, right, yeah, index cards with the listeners. 631 00:34:40,440 --> 00:34:42,640 Speaker 1: We took pictures and we put the pictures online. I 632 00:34:42,680 --> 00:34:46,240 Speaker 1: still have the pictures. Do you really? Oh yeah, yeah, 633 00:34:46,280 --> 00:34:49,200 Speaker 1: it's like there you go. And by the way, we 634 00:34:49,239 --> 00:34:52,359 Speaker 1: had a very cool winner temperatures immediately dropped because I 635 00:34:52,440 --> 00:34:55,200 Speaker 1: had like ten trees in my backyard and the listeners 636 00:34:55,239 --> 00:35:00,480 Speaker 1: own the the carbon dioxide rights. Oh my god, she 637 00:35:00,600 --> 00:35:02,719 Speaker 1: still thinks this could work. They just need to be 638 00:35:02,760 --> 00:35:05,960 Speaker 1: designed and administered differently than they are now, you know what, 639 00:35:06,040 --> 00:35:08,399 Speaker 1: And consumers will probably have to pay even more than 640 00:35:08,440 --> 00:35:12,360 Speaker 1: they pay. This cryptocurrency reminds me that you ask people, 641 00:35:12,560 --> 00:35:17,200 Speaker 1: they can't explain it makes no sense.
