Moist line 7 00:00:20,480 --> 00:00:23,840 Speaker 1: you got any rants eight seven seven Moist eighty six 8 00:00:23,920 --> 00:00:28,720 Speaker 1: eight seven seven Moist eighty six. All right, let's talk 9 00:00:29,240 --> 00:00:33,000 Speaker 1: just in a moment now with with one of the 10 00:00:33,000 --> 00:00:36,919 Speaker 1: candidates for LA County District Attorney, Nathan Hakman. We're going 11 00:00:37,000 --> 00:00:41,200 Speaker 1: to discuss this, among other things, his role in getting 12 00:00:41,240 --> 00:00:45,360 Speaker 1: Gavin Newsom to reverse parole on a guy who killed 13 00:00:45,360 --> 00:00:49,559 Speaker 1: an LA Sheriff's chaplain and shot and severely wounded an 14 00:00:49,640 --> 00:00:52,479 Speaker 1: LA County deputy back in the mid nineteen nineties. Just 15 00:00:52,520 --> 00:00:55,200 Speaker 1: to go through that poll again that came out and 16 00:00:55,200 --> 00:00:57,400 Speaker 1: again poles have been all over the place. This is 17 00:00:57,400 --> 00:00:59,840 Speaker 1: by cal State, Long Beach, Cal poly Pomona, and you 18 00:01:01,080 --> 00:01:05,160 Speaker 1: gascone has fifteen percent of the vote, but that could 19 00:01:05,200 --> 00:01:07,560 Speaker 1: be close to his ceiling because he's got a fifteen 20 00:01:07,680 --> 00:01:11,959 Speaker 1: percent disapproval rating. So He's got fifteen, Jonathan Tommy eight, 21 00:01:12,040 --> 00:01:17,280 Speaker 1: Nathan Hockman four, Jeff Schamerinsky, Craig Mitchell, Mariamurer, Ramirez two, 22 00:01:17,440 --> 00:01:21,440 Speaker 1: everybody else one percent or less. And there have been 23 00:01:21,480 --> 00:01:24,080 Speaker 1: polls where Nathan Hakman wins. There have been polls where 24 00:01:24,200 --> 00:01:28,280 Speaker 1: Eric Sadal is ahead. John Hadami usually does well, but 25 00:01:28,480 --> 00:01:31,240 Speaker 1: his approval rating going back to gascone is only twenty 26 00:01:31,240 --> 00:01:33,840 Speaker 1: four percent. So there's definitely going to be a contender 27 00:01:33,920 --> 00:01:38,200 Speaker 1: and maybe two against Gascon. The question is all the 28 00:01:38,240 --> 00:01:40,920 Speaker 1: other candidates have to get well known. Some of them 29 00:01:40,959 --> 00:01:44,640 Speaker 1: are running radio and TV ads, and Nathan Hockman is 30 00:01:44,680 --> 00:01:47,120 Speaker 1: one of them. Let's get him on the air here. Nathan, 31 00:01:47,120 --> 00:01:49,240 Speaker 1: how are you very well? 32 00:01:49,320 --> 00:01:50,360 Speaker 2: John? Thanks for having me on. 33 00:01:51,160 --> 00:01:57,080 Speaker 1: Let's talk first about this parole board decision that released 34 00:01:57,320 --> 00:02:00,720 Speaker 1: Derek Pettis. He was originally sentenced thirty years to life 35 00:02:00,760 --> 00:02:03,800 Speaker 1: back in ninety six, convicted a first degree murder. He 36 00:02:03,920 --> 00:02:10,400 Speaker 1: shot to death Bruce Bryan, a volunteer chaplain in La County, 37 00:02:10,440 --> 00:02:13,040 Speaker 1: and he also shot in the eye, shot in the 38 00:02:13,080 --> 00:02:17,080 Speaker 1: head an Allie County Deputy Terrence Wenger. Wenger somehow survived, 39 00:02:17,160 --> 00:02:21,240 Speaker 1: lost his eye that he was seriously hurt obviously, and 40 00:02:22,200 --> 00:02:24,400 Speaker 1: Pettis should have spent the rest of his life in 41 00:02:24,440 --> 00:02:28,919 Speaker 1: prison without question. But the parole Board was going to 42 00:02:29,040 --> 00:02:32,520 Speaker 1: let him go. Talk about that and then talk about 43 00:02:32,560 --> 00:02:38,079 Speaker 1: your campaign to convince news him to reverse the parole absolutely. 44 00:02:38,200 --> 00:02:41,080 Speaker 2: So what happened is I was well aware that George 45 00:02:41,080 --> 00:02:44,120 Speaker 2: Gascon has a policy never to send one of his 46 00:02:44,200 --> 00:02:47,600 Speaker 2: prosecutors to go with the victim families to a parole hearing, 47 00:02:48,000 --> 00:02:50,280 Speaker 2: and in this case, it was the parole hearing for 48 00:02:50,400 --> 00:02:53,960 Speaker 2: Derek Pettis, someone who, as you mentioned, shot dead a 49 00:02:54,080 --> 00:02:58,200 Speaker 2: volunteer chaplain as well as attempted to murder a deputy 50 00:02:58,600 --> 00:03:00,720 Speaker 2: back in the mid nineteen ninety and he was up 51 00:03:00,760 --> 00:03:06,000 Speaker 2: for parole, and sure enough, because the prosecutor was not 52 00:03:06,120 --> 00:03:09,360 Speaker 2: there to present the evidence of the crime, and more importantly, 53 00:03:09,760 --> 00:03:12,680 Speaker 2: the fact that Pettis had actually used a shank while 54 00:03:12,720 --> 00:03:16,040 Speaker 2: he was awaiting trial on the case, the Parole Board 55 00:03:16,080 --> 00:03:20,160 Speaker 2: on September sixth of twenty twenty three granted parole. But 56 00:03:20,200 --> 00:03:21,960 Speaker 2: at what it does at that point it puts a 57 00:03:22,040 --> 00:03:26,000 Speaker 2: six month procedure in place where the governor can overturn 58 00:03:26,120 --> 00:03:28,840 Speaker 2: and reverse that grant. So what I did is I 59 00:03:28,880 --> 00:03:31,760 Speaker 2: wrote a letter directly to the Governor, and I highlighted 60 00:03:31,800 --> 00:03:34,560 Speaker 2: this matter because otherwise it would be swept under the rug. 61 00:03:34,960 --> 00:03:38,280 Speaker 2: I wrote an article in a local newspaper as well. 62 00:03:38,320 --> 00:03:42,280 Speaker 2: I encouraged all my supporters to contact the governor and 63 00:03:42,800 --> 00:03:46,560 Speaker 2: ask him and beg him to reverse the Parole Board's 64 00:03:46,560 --> 00:03:51,360 Speaker 2: decision granting this assassin, this murderer parole and letting him 65 00:03:51,360 --> 00:03:55,160 Speaker 2: out essentially. And I'm happy to report that on January 66 00:03:55,200 --> 00:03:59,080 Speaker 2: twenty nine, just several days ago, Governor Newsom actually reversed 67 00:03:59,400 --> 00:04:02,320 Speaker 2: the parole Board listen to the arguments that I and 68 00:04:02,400 --> 00:04:05,920 Speaker 2: my supporters have made, and of keeping Derek Pattis in 69 00:04:06,000 --> 00:04:08,360 Speaker 2: jail for at least two more years before we'll have 70 00:04:08,400 --> 00:04:09,400 Speaker 2: another parole hearing. 71 00:04:11,040 --> 00:04:14,000 Speaker 1: So he's going to be there now until twenty twenty. 72 00:04:13,840 --> 00:04:17,840 Speaker 2: Six, Yeah, twenty twenty five, twenty twenty six. And I 73 00:04:17,920 --> 00:04:20,600 Speaker 2: will tell you this when i'm the DA. At that point, 74 00:04:20,800 --> 00:04:24,159 Speaker 2: I will have my prosecutors go with the family of 75 00:04:24,200 --> 00:04:27,880 Speaker 2: those murdered victims to that parole hearing and make the 76 00:04:27,920 --> 00:04:30,120 Speaker 2: case why Derek Pettis should spend the rest of his 77 00:04:30,160 --> 00:04:32,080 Speaker 2: life in jail. I think most. 78 00:04:31,920 --> 00:04:34,599 Speaker 1: People would be surprised to find out that the prole 79 00:04:36,120 --> 00:04:41,440 Speaker 1: hearing officers don't have all this information that it would 80 00:04:41,440 --> 00:04:44,719 Speaker 1: automatically be part of the material that they're going through. 81 00:04:46,560 --> 00:04:49,960 Speaker 2: You would think that they should have all this information, 82 00:04:50,520 --> 00:04:53,320 Speaker 2: but what they don't have is the in essence the 83 00:04:53,400 --> 00:04:57,360 Speaker 2: prosecutor making the case as to why this person committed 84 00:04:57,360 --> 00:05:00,240 Speaker 2: the crimes in the first place, also make in the 85 00:05:00,279 --> 00:05:02,719 Speaker 2: case of the crimes he committed while he was waiting 86 00:05:03,080 --> 00:05:06,560 Speaker 2: for his trial in this instance, and sort of being 87 00:05:06,560 --> 00:05:09,400 Speaker 2: the voice for the victims, because imagine that you're the 88 00:05:09,480 --> 00:05:13,599 Speaker 2: victim family of Chaplain Brian, or you're the family of 89 00:05:13,960 --> 00:05:18,440 Speaker 2: Chaplain or Deputy Wedner, and you're confronting your murderer and 90 00:05:18,480 --> 00:05:22,080 Speaker 2: he's got counseled the parole boards there, and the prosecutor 91 00:05:22,440 --> 00:05:26,360 Speaker 2: has access to the parole board's file that the victims 92 00:05:26,560 --> 00:05:29,440 Speaker 2: families do not have access to, and can make the 93 00:05:29,520 --> 00:05:33,360 Speaker 2: point on whether or not true rehabilitation has occurred, whether 94 00:05:33,440 --> 00:05:36,520 Speaker 2: or not this particular murderer deserves to spend the rest 95 00:05:36,520 --> 00:05:39,960 Speaker 2: of his life in jail. Without the prosecutor there, the 96 00:05:40,040 --> 00:05:44,120 Speaker 2: victim family is basically unrepresented. They're unable to make their 97 00:05:44,279 --> 00:05:47,279 Speaker 2: arguments in any compelling way to the parole board. So 98 00:05:47,320 --> 00:05:50,080 Speaker 2: it's not a shock that this parole board went ahead 99 00:05:50,120 --> 00:05:53,240 Speaker 2: and granted parole. But thankfully we were able to get 100 00:05:53,279 --> 00:05:57,080 Speaker 2: that information to Governor Newsom and he reversed the parole 101 00:05:57,120 --> 00:05:57,960 Speaker 2: grant in this case. 102 00:05:58,080 --> 00:06:02,640 Speaker 1: Is this one of Gascom's blanket policies? A prosecutor doesn't 103 00:06:02,640 --> 00:06:04,000 Speaker 1: show up at any parole hearings. 104 00:06:04,880 --> 00:06:09,440 Speaker 2: He reversed a forty year policy a prosecutors going with 105 00:06:09,520 --> 00:06:12,719 Speaker 2: the victims to parole hearings, and basically says, because I 106 00:06:12,800 --> 00:06:16,080 Speaker 2: believe he's much more pro criminal than pro victim, that 107 00:06:16,120 --> 00:06:18,760 Speaker 2: he's no longer allowing his prosecutors to go with the 108 00:06:18,839 --> 00:06:21,159 Speaker 2: victims of these parole hearings. That is one of his 109 00:06:21,200 --> 00:06:23,640 Speaker 2: blanket policies that I would reverse on day one. 110 00:06:24,040 --> 00:06:26,120 Speaker 1: You would, I assume, have a blanket policy in the 111 00:06:26,160 --> 00:06:30,680 Speaker 1: other direction, and there'd be a prosecutor accompanying every victims 112 00:06:30,720 --> 00:06:32,000 Speaker 1: family before a parole board. 113 00:06:33,000 --> 00:06:33,600 Speaker 2: Absolutely. 114 00:06:34,440 --> 00:06:37,719 Speaker 1: How is the campaign gone? A senior television commercials which 115 00:06:37,760 --> 00:06:40,560 Speaker 1: looked really good. I think your name recognition is going 116 00:06:40,600 --> 00:06:42,280 Speaker 1: to pick up a lot. I see the polls are 117 00:06:42,320 --> 00:06:45,080 Speaker 1: all over the place. What's your feeling on the state 118 00:06:45,120 --> 00:06:48,400 Speaker 1: of the race from your perspective, You know, the state 119 00:06:48,400 --> 00:06:48,599 Speaker 1: of the. 120 00:06:48,640 --> 00:06:50,479 Speaker 2: Race is where I was hoping it was going to 121 00:06:50,520 --> 00:06:53,200 Speaker 2: be when we first entered the race back in April. 122 00:06:53,600 --> 00:06:56,520 Speaker 2: I think the recent polls that were actually conducted before 123 00:06:56,560 --> 00:07:00,760 Speaker 2: we began the last two weeks of commercials. The advantages 124 00:07:00,800 --> 00:07:03,520 Speaker 2: of having raised more money than any other candidate, in 125 00:07:03,560 --> 00:07:06,360 Speaker 2: fact by a factor of one hundred percent, is that 126 00:07:06,440 --> 00:07:08,600 Speaker 2: I'll be able to get my message to the millions 127 00:07:08,640 --> 00:07:10,840 Speaker 2: of people who are going to vote. And You're right 128 00:07:10,880 --> 00:07:14,760 Speaker 2: in part this is name identification, name recognition, and getting 129 00:07:14,800 --> 00:07:18,160 Speaker 2: the message of how I'm going to defeat George Gascon, 130 00:07:18,320 --> 00:07:21,240 Speaker 2: why he should be defeated by enacting the most pro 131 00:07:21,280 --> 00:07:24,880 Speaker 2: criminal policies, and how I'm going to restore accountability and 132 00:07:24,920 --> 00:07:28,560 Speaker 2: prosecute criminals. That message is getting out loud and clear 133 00:07:28,640 --> 00:07:33,400 Speaker 2: on TV, radio, social media, text messages, email, and print mail. 134 00:07:33,920 --> 00:07:36,280 Speaker 2: And I believe that that campaign that I would not 135 00:07:36,320 --> 00:07:39,200 Speaker 2: only wage in the primary, but wage at toe to 136 00:07:39,200 --> 00:07:41,960 Speaker 2: toe to get Gascon out of office in the general election, 137 00:07:42,520 --> 00:07:44,040 Speaker 2: is why I will be in the top two for 138 00:07:44,120 --> 00:07:47,640 Speaker 2: the primary and then beat Gascon in the November general runoff. 139 00:07:48,640 --> 00:07:52,040 Speaker 1: For people, since two thirds of the public has not 140 00:07:52,120 --> 00:07:54,240 Speaker 1: made a decision yet, and I'm sure many of them 141 00:07:54,720 --> 00:07:56,680 Speaker 1: don't know who you are, even though you have been 142 00:07:58,160 --> 00:08:01,520 Speaker 1: working in office for quiet while we're working as a 143 00:08:01,640 --> 00:08:04,800 Speaker 1: US district attorney. Talk about your background, just a quick 144 00:08:04,880 --> 00:08:07,520 Speaker 1: rundown of your resume. Some people understand your experience. 145 00:08:08,840 --> 00:08:12,600 Speaker 2: Certainly. I have thirty four years of criminal justice experience. 146 00:08:12,640 --> 00:08:15,320 Speaker 2: I was a federal prosecutor for seven years, going after 147 00:08:15,440 --> 00:08:21,000 Speaker 2: narcotics traffickers, violent gang members, international money launders, and environmental criminals. 148 00:08:21,320 --> 00:08:25,160 Speaker 2: I got a presidential appointment unanimous Senate confirmation to run 149 00:08:25,200 --> 00:08:28,640 Speaker 2: the US Department of Justices Tax Division during the president 150 00:08:28,680 --> 00:08:31,840 Speaker 2: George W. Bush years. I also was the president of 151 00:08:31,840 --> 00:08:34,800 Speaker 2: the La City Ethics Commission and the co founder of 152 00:08:34,800 --> 00:08:38,760 Speaker 2: the La Sheriff's Foundation. So I actually have the street 153 00:08:38,800 --> 00:08:42,480 Speaker 2: cred and the resume and the experience. Unlike Gascon, who's 154 00:08:42,480 --> 00:08:45,880 Speaker 2: never personally prosecuted a case or defended one, I have 155 00:08:45,960 --> 00:08:49,600 Speaker 2: personally prosecuted one hundred cases and defended two hundred of them. 156 00:08:50,000 --> 00:08:52,560 Speaker 2: I can take this take over for as a district 157 00:08:52,600 --> 00:08:55,560 Speaker 2: attorney and be ready to go on day one in 158 00:08:55,600 --> 00:08:59,080 Speaker 2: a way that not only is Gascon severely in experienced 159 00:08:59,080 --> 00:09:01,680 Speaker 2: and misguided for, but I have that I have the 160 00:09:01,760 --> 00:09:04,720 Speaker 2: resume and the experience to beat out every other Challenger 161 00:09:04,760 --> 00:09:05,199 Speaker 2: as well. 162 00:09:05,720 --> 00:09:08,000 Speaker 1: Well, Nathan, we'll talk with you again soon.

These are 173 00:09:41,840 --> 00:09:45,120 Speaker 1: planes that haven't even left the factory yet and they're 174 00:09:45,160 --> 00:09:46,160 Speaker 1: being recalled. 175 00:09:47,000 --> 00:09:51,320 Speaker 3: You're listening to John Cobelts on demand from KFI AM 176 00:09:51,360 --> 00:09:51,880 Speaker 3: six forty. 177 00:09:53,480 --> 00:09:59,480 Speaker 1: Another day, another story about Boeing having manufacturing problems for 178 00:09:59,559 --> 00:10:03,480 Speaker 1: the or the Max jets, the seven thirty seven Max 179 00:10:03,520 --> 00:10:10,600 Speaker 1: fuselages they come the fuselage has come from another company 180 00:10:10,640 --> 00:10:12,360 Speaker 1: that used to be part of Boeing and then it's 181 00:10:12,400 --> 00:10:18,880 Speaker 1: got spun off Spirit Aerosystems. They manufacture these in Wichita, 182 00:10:18,920 --> 00:10:22,920 Speaker 1: among other places, and they have been at the center 183 00:10:23,080 --> 00:10:26,320 Speaker 1: of all these problems that Boweing has had, well, not 184 00:10:26,400 --> 00:10:30,280 Speaker 1: all of them. Boeing itself at their factories in Washington 185 00:10:30,320 --> 00:10:35,880 Speaker 1: have problems as well. There are fifty undelivered seven thirty 186 00:10:35,880 --> 00:10:40,120 Speaker 1: seven Max jets, and the reason they're not delivered is 187 00:10:40,960 --> 00:10:45,960 Speaker 1: one of the employees for Spirit Aerosystems found misdrilled holes 188 00:10:46,480 --> 00:10:54,360 Speaker 1: on some of the fuselages miss drilled. If you remember 189 00:10:54,400 --> 00:10:58,840 Speaker 1: the problem with the door getting blown out was that 190 00:10:59,360 --> 00:11:05,280 Speaker 1: they forgot to in the bolts. And here I guess 191 00:11:07,240 --> 00:11:09,000 Speaker 1: some of the bolts that they would put in to 192 00:11:09,040 --> 00:11:11,560 Speaker 1: assemble this fuselage weren't in the right place. 193 00:11:11,720 --> 00:11:13,959 Speaker 4: We was doing this work. 194 00:11:14,600 --> 00:11:20,360 Speaker 1: I don't know. They must be drunk. I'm you would think. 195 00:11:20,400 --> 00:11:22,480 Speaker 1: You know, in your mind, you think that everybody who 196 00:11:22,600 --> 00:11:26,719 Speaker 1: has a job like this is very meticulous. You have 197 00:11:26,800 --> 00:11:30,280 Speaker 1: to be right because you can't have one mistake. So 198 00:11:30,440 --> 00:11:32,600 Speaker 1: every hole has to be in the right place, every 199 00:11:32,679 --> 00:11:38,880 Speaker 1: bolt has to be attached properly. And this is a 200 00:11:38,920 --> 00:11:43,960 Speaker 1: great quote from Boeing's commercial chief Stan Dial. He wrote 201 00:11:43,960 --> 00:11:46,760 Speaker 1: in a memo to the whole staff that they have 202 00:11:46,880 --> 00:11:49,640 Speaker 1: to pull back these planes, fifty of them. This is 203 00:11:49,679 --> 00:11:52,960 Speaker 1: the only course of action, given our commitment to deliver 204 00:11:53,440 --> 00:11:55,520 Speaker 1: perfect airplanes every time. 205 00:11:58,800 --> 00:12:00,520 Speaker 4: Okay, so for now on of thing is going to 206 00:12:00,559 --> 00:12:02,760 Speaker 4: be perfect. We're not going to find a single issue. 207 00:12:03,200 --> 00:12:05,640 Speaker 1: The guy's a part time comedy writer. Yeah, when you 208 00:12:05,679 --> 00:12:10,160 Speaker 1: think of Boeing, you think of perfect every time. Huh. 209 00:12:10,360 --> 00:12:15,200 Speaker 1: One of the employees notified his manager that two holes 210 00:12:15,240 --> 00:12:20,239 Speaker 1: may not have been drilled exactly to the Boeing requirements. 211 00:12:21,880 --> 00:12:24,240 Speaker 1: And so now they're going to have to expect inspect 212 00:12:24,280 --> 00:12:26,600 Speaker 1: all the bolts to see if this was a production 213 00:12:26,720 --> 00:12:28,000 Speaker 1: era on every plane or not. 214 00:12:28,320 --> 00:12:31,120 Speaker 4: And those people are going to keep their jobs. Well, 215 00:12:31,440 --> 00:12:33,000 Speaker 4: they probably can't find anybody else. 216 00:12:33,440 --> 00:12:37,920 Speaker 1: Nobody gets fired. That's the error we're in. Nobody gets 217 00:12:37,960 --> 00:12:39,200 Speaker 1: fired for doing shoddy work. 218 00:12:39,280 --> 00:12:40,600 Speaker 4: It's so crazy to me. 219 00:12:41,160 --> 00:12:46,439 Speaker 1: Or bad service. You know, this is not the first time. 220 00:12:47,040 --> 00:12:52,440 Speaker 1: Last year there were misdrilled holes holes by Spirit Eero 221 00:12:52,520 --> 00:12:55,640 Speaker 1: systems on some of the Max jets, and they ended 222 00:12:55,679 --> 00:12:58,719 Speaker 1: up with production delays last year. And these aren't even 223 00:12:58,760 --> 00:13:01,360 Speaker 1: the jets that had the problem. In the air they 224 00:13:01,400 --> 00:13:07,679 Speaker 1: caught it. Uh, it says vary they call it. They 225 00:13:07,679 --> 00:13:12,079 Speaker 1: call them variances, and they're not unheard of. I guess 226 00:13:12,120 --> 00:13:15,959 Speaker 1: maybe this is common. But now the door blowing off 227 00:13:16,040 --> 00:13:20,320 Speaker 1: has opened the world to what the real practices are 228 00:13:20,400 --> 00:13:24,160 Speaker 1: behind the scenes. It's like seeing how sausage is made 229 00:13:24,920 --> 00:13:28,800 Speaker 1: at the meat factory, and so now if they keep 230 00:13:28,880 --> 00:13:32,160 Speaker 1: taking it, they keep and during this kind of scrutiny, 231 00:13:33,080 --> 00:13:35,800 Speaker 1: you know, bolt by bolt, hole by hole, we're going 232 00:13:35,880 --> 00:13:37,880 Speaker 1: to find out a lot of stuff that we didn't know. 233 00:13:38,040 --> 00:13:39,600 Speaker 4: No one's going to want to fly no. 234 00:13:42,280 --> 00:13:45,359 Speaker 1: Because the incident with the door involved a Spirit fuselage, 235 00:13:46,080 --> 00:13:48,800 Speaker 1: although that apparently was Boeing's fault because they took the 236 00:13:48,880 --> 00:13:52,320 Speaker 1: door off and then put it back on and forgot 237 00:13:52,320 --> 00:13:57,959 Speaker 1: to bolt it. Boeing has also recently instructed a major 238 00:13:58,000 --> 00:14:01,840 Speaker 1: supplier to hold shipments until all parts meet requirements. 239 00:14:02,160 --> 00:14:03,160 Speaker 4: Well, duh, so. 240 00:14:05,600 --> 00:14:07,800 Speaker 1: I guess that wasn't the policy up to this point. 241 00:14:09,760 --> 00:14:12,840 Speaker 1: That's that's going to lead to more production delays. The 242 00:14:12,880 --> 00:14:18,240 Speaker 1: supplier in this case was also Spirit. Boeing executives have 243 00:14:19,080 --> 00:14:24,480 Speaker 1: promised to review all practices and root out defects. It 244 00:14:24,520 --> 00:14:27,360 Speaker 1: will not even set financial targets for next year. They're 245 00:14:27,360 --> 00:14:32,640 Speaker 1: going to try to improve the quality. And it looks 246 00:14:32,640 --> 00:14:34,640 Speaker 1: like the liveries are going to be slowed up and 247 00:14:34,720 --> 00:14:36,960 Speaker 1: airline customers are already short on planes. 248 00:14:38,480 --> 00:14:41,440 Speaker 4: I'd rather be safe than sorry. 249 00:14:42,600 --> 00:14:45,680 Speaker 1: Well, yeah, because it's a plane and it's you know, 250 00:14:45,720 --> 00:14:51,080 Speaker 1: three hundred and fifty people. I don't know, they're a 251 00:14:51,120 --> 00:14:54,080 Speaker 1: lot more militant about You're a lot more militant about 252 00:14:54,080 --> 00:14:56,280 Speaker 1: it than they are. You care more? 253 00:14:56,360 --> 00:14:59,600 Speaker 4: Why what I mean? That's that's so stupid. 254 00:15:01,160 --> 00:15:03,600 Speaker 1: See, this is one of the sobering realities of life. 255 00:15:03,800 --> 00:15:07,400 Speaker 1: I've come to realize. I care more about things. You 256 00:15:07,480 --> 00:15:10,440 Speaker 1: care more about things than the people involved in these industries. 257 00:15:11,600 --> 00:15:14,400 Speaker 1: They don't care that much. They're getting paid no matter what. 258 00:15:14,760 --> 00:15:17,440 Speaker 1: They get pizza parties. They get pizza parties. That was 259 00:15:18,240 --> 00:15:21,720 Speaker 1: in order to get the factory moving more quickly. At 260 00:15:21,800 --> 00:15:26,040 Speaker 1: Spirit Aerosystems in Wichita, the lure was a pizza party. 261 00:15:26,240 --> 00:15:28,560 Speaker 1: The thing is, you don't get the pizza party unless 262 00:15:29,320 --> 00:15:32,480 Speaker 1: you get the plane through the production process. And if 263 00:15:32,480 --> 00:15:35,880 Speaker 1: you start complaining about every misdrilled hole, there's no pizza party. 264 00:15:35,960 --> 00:15:38,880 Speaker 4: So what happens when people die? Then what do you get? 265 00:15:39,120 --> 00:15:42,000 Speaker 1: Well, you don't know, pizza party. That's the only punishment. 266 00:15:45,000 --> 00:15:49,680 Speaker 1: All right, More coming up, We've got more stories about 267 00:15:50,400 --> 00:15:53,040 Speaker 1: Well I got to tell you about how now the 268 00:15:53,040 --> 00:15:59,120 Speaker 1: climate fanatics they want your tires. Apparently, the tires that 269 00:15:59,280 --> 00:16:02,880 Speaker 1: grip the road really well, you know, in bad weather 270 00:16:02,960 --> 00:16:06,720 Speaker 1: and wet weather, they're bad for the climate. And in 271 00:16:06,880 --> 00:16:10,120 Speaker 1: Washington they may ban these tires, which will make it 272 00:16:10,240 --> 00:16:12,520 Speaker 1: less safe to drive your car. You're more likely to 273 00:16:12,560 --> 00:16:17,080 Speaker 1: skid off the road. That's coming up John Cobelt Show KFI. 274 00:16:18,320 --> 00:16:23,000 Speaker 3: You're listening to John Cobel's on demand from KFI AM six. 275 00:16:22,960 --> 00:16:27,440 Speaker 1: Forty KFI AM six forty and we're Life Everywhere on 276 00:16:27,480 --> 00:16:33,360 Speaker 1: the iHeartRadio app. Got all kinds of weird illegal alien news, 277 00:16:33,480 --> 00:16:36,120 Speaker 1: immigration news. But first I got to tell you about 278 00:16:36,600 --> 00:16:42,440 Speaker 1: the latest fanaticism from these left wing progressive fools in 279 00:16:42,800 --> 00:16:45,960 Speaker 1: Washington State. You know how they were coming after your 280 00:16:46,000 --> 00:16:49,800 Speaker 1: gas stoves a few months back, and they've backed off 281 00:16:50,240 --> 00:16:53,920 Speaker 1: because normal people are really angry. Most people don't want 282 00:16:53,920 --> 00:16:56,080 Speaker 1: to give up their gas stoves, and most people don't 283 00:16:56,080 --> 00:16:59,960 Speaker 1: think it's causing global warming. Well, now they're going after 284 00:17:00,120 --> 00:17:05,520 Speaker 1: to your tires in Washington. A new bill would give 285 00:17:05,560 --> 00:17:11,520 Speaker 1: regulators the ability to ban tires that have thick, deep treads. 286 00:17:13,000 --> 00:17:16,640 Speaker 1: See the deeper the tread, the stronger and heavier the 287 00:17:16,680 --> 00:17:22,399 Speaker 1: tire is, and so it grips the road better, especially 288 00:17:22,600 --> 00:17:27,440 Speaker 1: in rain and snow and ice. Most people would want that. 289 00:17:27,760 --> 00:17:29,000 Speaker 4: So what's the alternative. 290 00:17:29,359 --> 00:17:32,000 Speaker 1: The alternative is to have a tire where you skid 291 00:17:32,040 --> 00:17:34,160 Speaker 1: out of control and hit a tree and die. 292 00:17:34,480 --> 00:17:35,760 Speaker 4: That's not an alternative. 293 00:17:36,040 --> 00:17:38,800 Speaker 1: Well, they just want to save the climate. They don't 294 00:17:38,840 --> 00:17:40,240 Speaker 1: care if you die again. 295 00:17:40,040 --> 00:17:42,600 Speaker 4: More people could die and nobody cares. 296 00:17:42,800 --> 00:17:48,479 Speaker 1: Yeah, no, they don't care. It says here, these tires 297 00:17:48,520 --> 00:17:54,760 Speaker 1: have too much rolling resistance receipt, which decreases the fuel 298 00:17:54,760 --> 00:18:00,320 Speaker 1: efficiency of the vehicle. So the car gets fuel aisles 299 00:18:00,359 --> 00:18:03,000 Speaker 1: per gallon, but in return, you get a better grip 300 00:18:03,040 --> 00:18:06,600 Speaker 1: on the road. And up in Washington State there's a 301 00:18:06,600 --> 00:18:08,960 Speaker 1: lot of rain and snow, so that's what you want. 302 00:18:10,440 --> 00:18:14,440 Speaker 1: It could, according to the fanatics promoting the bill, would 303 00:18:14,520 --> 00:18:19,960 Speaker 1: result in a cumulative reduction of six hundred million gallons 304 00:18:20,000 --> 00:18:23,560 Speaker 1: of gasoline just in the state of Washington. Oh, come on, 305 00:18:25,000 --> 00:18:28,760 Speaker 1: at fifteen hundred gigawatt hours of electricity over a ten 306 00:18:28,840 --> 00:18:32,840 Speaker 1: year period. Well, you know people are going to do. 307 00:18:33,320 --> 00:18:34,800 Speaker 1: They're just going to go to another state and by 308 00:18:34,800 --> 00:18:37,920 Speaker 1: their tires. Yeah, I'm going to take a tire that 309 00:18:38,200 --> 00:18:43,360 Speaker 1: skids on rain and ice and snow because some climate 310 00:18:43,440 --> 00:18:50,440 Speaker 1: fanatic says, so good lord, And they never run out 311 00:18:50,480 --> 00:18:54,800 Speaker 1: of these ideas it was gas stoves, that it was dishwashers. 312 00:18:54,920 --> 00:18:58,240 Speaker 1: Now it's your tires. Get out of my life. Is 313 00:18:58,280 --> 00:19:03,240 Speaker 1: there any way to deport all these people? I would 314 00:19:03,320 --> 00:19:08,280 Speaker 1: I would exchange all the illegal aliens, accept them all 315 00:19:08,320 --> 00:19:10,960 Speaker 1: into the country and give them citizenship in exchange for 316 00:19:11,040 --> 00:19:15,480 Speaker 1: deporting all the progressives and the wocads and all these 317 00:19:15,960 --> 00:19:20,920 Speaker 1: climate fanatics. If they think life is so terrible here, 318 00:19:20,960 --> 00:19:25,520 Speaker 1: please go. Will you sticking your nose into my gas stove, 319 00:19:25,680 --> 00:19:29,600 Speaker 1: my dishwasher, the tires I have in my car, go away. 320 00:19:30,119 --> 00:19:31,520 Speaker 1: I don't want to hear about it. I don't want 321 00:19:31,520 --> 00:19:33,680 Speaker 1: to argue with you. I'd want you to go away. 322 00:19:37,960 --> 00:19:42,560 Speaker 1: Now with the illegal alien story, I will say now 323 00:19:42,720 --> 00:19:45,200 Speaker 1: most of the news media is covering this as as 324 00:19:45,240 --> 00:19:47,919 Speaker 1: a severe problem. We told you even sixty minutes was 325 00:19:47,960 --> 00:19:51,320 Speaker 1: at the border and had a peace over the weekend 326 00:19:51,880 --> 00:19:55,879 Speaker 1: about all these Chinese citizens coming over the California border 327 00:19:55,920 --> 00:19:59,880 Speaker 1: from Mexico. There's there apparently there's a like a fourth 328 00:20:00,119 --> 00:20:05,480 Speaker 1: what hole on the fence, four foot break, and so 329 00:20:05,640 --> 00:20:10,600 Speaker 1: thousands are coming across. Here is a clip on CNN 330 00:20:10,680 --> 00:20:16,960 Speaker 1: John Miller, who's their law enforcement analyst, trying to explain 331 00:20:17,119 --> 00:20:20,480 Speaker 1: how legal aliens are now stealing in New York. Then 332 00:20:20,520 --> 00:20:23,119 Speaker 1: they go to Florida to spend the money, you know, 333 00:20:23,119 --> 00:20:25,360 Speaker 1: after they've sold the stuff, and then they come back 334 00:20:25,400 --> 00:20:27,880 Speaker 1: to New York And listen to the two anchors trying 335 00:20:27,920 --> 00:20:29,160 Speaker 1: to understand it's. 336 00:20:28,960 --> 00:20:32,119 Speaker 5: So complicated because you know, you're in New Yorker, you 337 00:20:32,240 --> 00:20:34,160 Speaker 5: move through the city every day as I do. 338 00:20:34,880 --> 00:20:35,760 Speaker 1: We see these. 339 00:20:35,600 --> 00:20:38,080 Speaker 5: People, we touch these people. They're out looking for work, 340 00:20:38,119 --> 00:20:40,639 Speaker 5: they're delivering our food, they're at the gas stations, in 341 00:20:40,680 --> 00:20:44,080 Speaker 5: the car wash. I mean, these are people who came 342 00:20:44,440 --> 00:20:47,760 Speaker 5: in waves, you know, one hundred and seventy thousand probably 343 00:20:47,840 --> 00:20:52,160 Speaker 5: to New York City. But within that group, this hardworking 344 00:20:52,600 --> 00:20:55,119 Speaker 5: you know, drawnds of people in search of hope and 345 00:20:55,160 --> 00:20:57,879 Speaker 5: a better life, there is this one percenter, you know, 346 00:20:58,000 --> 00:21:02,359 Speaker 5: criminal element that looks at a different opportunity here. These individuals. 347 00:21:02,359 --> 00:21:07,320 Speaker 5: I went over their rap sheets yesterday. Multiple charges, grand larceny, robbery, 348 00:21:07,359 --> 00:21:11,760 Speaker 5: attempted robbery, grand larceny, grand larceny. This particular crew operated 349 00:21:11,800 --> 00:21:15,920 Speaker 5: on mopads and scooters. They were doing organized retail theft. 350 00:21:15,960 --> 00:21:19,720 Speaker 5: They were doing snatches on the street, iPhones, iPads, clothing, 351 00:21:19,800 --> 00:21:22,399 Speaker 5: so on and so forth. One of them that they 352 00:21:22,440 --> 00:21:25,960 Speaker 5: are still seeking has ten charges on one day, because 353 00:21:26,000 --> 00:21:28,080 Speaker 5: he's part of a pattern that's been going on. And 354 00:21:28,640 --> 00:21:30,920 Speaker 5: I'm looking at the dates that they're arrest started, which 355 00:21:30,960 --> 00:21:33,160 Speaker 5: is probably close to when they got here. They've only 356 00:21:33,200 --> 00:21:36,160 Speaker 5: been here a couple of months. So what the detectives 357 00:21:36,160 --> 00:21:39,280 Speaker 5: are telling me is they have crews here that operate 358 00:21:39,320 --> 00:21:41,480 Speaker 5: in New York, do all their stealing, then go to 359 00:21:41,520 --> 00:21:43,359 Speaker 5: Florida to spend the money, and then come back. And 360 00:21:43,359 --> 00:21:45,480 Speaker 5: I'm like, well, why'd they just stay and steal in Florida? 361 00:21:45,480 --> 00:21:47,040 Speaker 5: And they said, because there you go to jail. 362 00:21:47,440 --> 00:21:53,080 Speaker 1: Oh s, good point. 363 00:21:56,160 --> 00:21:58,840 Speaker 6: The anchors were stopped cold by the idea that in 364 00:21:58,920 --> 00:22:07,359 Speaker 6: Florida the illegals go to jail. Oh play that again 365 00:22:07,400 --> 00:22:08,359 Speaker 6: with the good point. 366 00:22:08,720 --> 00:22:10,800 Speaker 5: Why don't they just staying steal in Florida And they said, 367 00:22:10,800 --> 00:22:12,040 Speaker 5: because there you go to jail. 368 00:22:12,400 --> 00:22:25,000 Speaker 1: Oh great point. Yeah, good point. So they spend their 369 00:22:25,000 --> 00:22:27,520 Speaker 1: money in Florida, but they aren't steal in Florida because 370 00:22:27,680 --> 00:22:30,119 Speaker 1: you go to jail. In New York, you don't go 371 00:22:30,200 --> 00:22:32,760 Speaker 1: to jail. And by the way, all that analysis for 372 00:22:32,920 --> 00:22:35,600 Speaker 1: Miller is about the guys who beat up the cops. 373 00:22:37,640 --> 00:22:40,320 Speaker 1: These are the seven guys who beat up the cops 374 00:22:40,840 --> 00:22:44,119 Speaker 1: and they were freed on bail by Alvin Bragg, the 375 00:22:44,760 --> 00:22:48,879 Speaker 1: district attorney. Let me repeat what John Miller said. These individuals. 376 00:22:49,160 --> 00:22:53,280 Speaker 1: I went over the rap sheets, multiple charges, grand larceny, robbery, 377 00:22:53,440 --> 00:22:58,160 Speaker 1: attempted robbery. This is before they beat the crap out 378 00:22:58,200 --> 00:23:03,159 Speaker 1: of the cops right on, boltpeds and scooters, organized retail theft. 379 00:23:03,400 --> 00:23:05,760 Speaker 1: They were snatches on the street using and they were 380 00:23:05,760 --> 00:23:11,720 Speaker 1: taking iPhones, iPads, clothing. One of them said, one of 381 00:23:11,760 --> 00:23:15,840 Speaker 1: them has had ten charges in one day, ten charges 382 00:23:16,000 --> 00:23:21,960 Speaker 1: in a day. He's in the country illegally. He steals 383 00:23:21,960 --> 00:23:25,280 Speaker 1: something ten times a day, goes to Florida, and after 384 00:23:25,359 --> 00:23:30,240 Speaker 1: he's fenced his all the stolen goods he's collected, he 385 00:23:30,280 --> 00:23:33,840 Speaker 1: goes to Florida and has a good time. Doesn't stay long. 386 00:23:33,920 --> 00:23:37,840 Speaker 1: Is it going to steal there? Because they go to 387 00:23:37,960 --> 00:23:43,439 Speaker 1: jail and mister and missus clueless anchor. Oh, oh, good point. 388 00:23:47,600 --> 00:23:54,760 Speaker 1: Here's another one. Washington stayed again. Right, they're coming after 389 00:23:54,800 --> 00:23:58,440 Speaker 1: your tires. They got three hundred and forty million dollars 390 00:23:58,480 --> 00:24:01,080 Speaker 1: in federal COVID money. They didn't know what to do 391 00:24:01,119 --> 00:24:05,119 Speaker 1: with it. Did they return it to the federal government. No. 392 00:24:05,680 --> 00:24:09,640 Speaker 1: Did they give tax rebates to their citizens. No, they 393 00:24:09,760 --> 00:24:16,960 Speaker 1: gave illegal aliens thousand dollars checks, thousand dollars checks to 394 00:24:17,000 --> 00:24:22,359 Speaker 1: illegal aliens who were not eligible to get federal aid 395 00:24:23,200 --> 00:24:31,280 Speaker 1: because of their immigration status, three hundred and forty million dollars. 396 00:24:32,400 --> 00:24:38,040 Speaker 1: And because you during COVID, if you're an illegal alien, 397 00:24:38,160 --> 00:24:45,639 Speaker 1: you weren't eligible for a lot of the giveaways. In fact, 398 00:24:46,000 --> 00:24:52,160 Speaker 1: there's one hundred and twenty billion federal dollars unspent from 399 00:24:52,200 --> 00:24:58,199 Speaker 1: the fund and the states have run out of useful 400 00:24:58,240 --> 00:25:01,320 Speaker 1: things to do with the money. I mean, you think 401 00:25:01,320 --> 00:25:07,040 Speaker 1: they pave a road with it. No, a legal and 402 00:25:07,440 --> 00:25:09,399 Speaker 1: we told you. Eric Adams in New York City is 403 00:25:09,400 --> 00:25:12,840 Speaker 1: giving out debit cards now thousand dollars a month to 404 00:25:12,920 --> 00:25:17,720 Speaker 1: illegal alien families. That's gonna cost fifty three million. And 405 00:25:17,840 --> 00:25:20,480 Speaker 1: every twenty eight days you get the card refilled, you 406 00:25:20,560 --> 00:25:28,000 Speaker 1: get another thousand dollars. Please keep voting the way you're voting. 407 00:25:29,400 --> 00:25:31,920 Speaker 1: And you know in this state, Biden's going to get 408 00:25:31,920 --> 00:25:35,400 Speaker 1: two thirds of the vote, right, because these are such 409 00:25:35,400 --> 00:25:38,920 Speaker 1: great policies to let in illegal aliens, let them beat 410 00:25:39,000 --> 00:25:41,719 Speaker 1: up the police, let them steal all day, let them 411 00:25:41,760 --> 00:25:44,399 Speaker 1: run off to Florida to spend their money and have 412 00:25:44,440 --> 00:25:46,639 Speaker 1: a good time on the beach. Then run out of 413 00:25:46,640 --> 00:25:50,679 Speaker 1: Florida because Ron DeSantis actually arrests criminals. Come back to 414 00:25:50,760 --> 00:25:53,480 Speaker 1: New York where you can get free debit cards. See, 415 00:25:53,480 --> 00:25:55,119 Speaker 1: you have a choice in New York if you're a 416 00:25:55,119 --> 00:25:57,760 Speaker 1: criminal illegal immigrant, you can get a free debit card. 417 00:25:58,240 --> 00:26:01,880 Speaker 1: Or you could steal. At stealing, you make a lot 418 00:26:01,920 --> 00:26:05,720 Speaker 1: more money. But nobody's going to deport you. If you 419 00:26:05,760 --> 00:26:08,119 Speaker 1: get arrested, nobody's going to throw you in jail. You 420 00:26:08,160 --> 00:26:10,679 Speaker 1: don't even have to put up bail. Well, this is 421 00:26:10,680 --> 00:26:12,120 Speaker 1: all going to turn out, well, isn't it? 422 00:26:13,880 --> 00:26:17,960 Speaker 3: Or coming up you're listening to John Cobelt on demand 423 00:26:18,240 --> 00:26:20,119 Speaker 3: from KFI Am sixty. 424 00:26:21,000 --> 00:26:25,359 Speaker 1: Well, here's more absurdity and insanity. Heyward, California up in 425 00:26:25,400 --> 00:26:30,160 Speaker 1: northern California has an elementary school and it teaches all 426 00:26:30,160 --> 00:26:35,439 Speaker 1: the elementary school grades. But they they hired an outside 427 00:26:35,600 --> 00:26:42,080 Speaker 1: organization called Woke Kindergarten. Now, I want to be clear, 428 00:26:42,680 --> 00:26:46,239 Speaker 1: just because it's called Woke Kindergarten, this was not a 429 00:26:46,280 --> 00:26:49,920 Speaker 1: program aimed at just kindergarteners. This was aimed at all 430 00:26:50,040 --> 00:26:54,199 Speaker 1: elementary school kids. But they called it Woke Kindergarten, and 431 00:26:54,280 --> 00:26:59,080 Speaker 1: it was supposed to be basic, woke, progressive teachings. Now, 432 00:27:00,760 --> 00:27:06,520 Speaker 1: this Hayward School, it's the Glassbook Elementary School, four hundred 433 00:27:06,560 --> 00:27:10,280 Speaker 1: and seventy four students, and this special program was funded 434 00:27:10,320 --> 00:27:13,040 Speaker 1: with a quarter of a million dollars in federal money. 435 00:27:14,400 --> 00:27:19,439 Speaker 1: The money goes to the lowest performing schools. So they 436 00:27:19,560 --> 00:27:28,639 Speaker 1: hired this woke kindergarten operation and it teaches things like 437 00:27:28,880 --> 00:27:34,919 Speaker 1: the woke word of the day, strike, cease fire, protest. 438 00:27:35,400 --> 00:27:42,320 Speaker 1: They teach the language of resistance. One teacher said he 439 00:27:42,400 --> 00:27:49,160 Speaker 1: was trained to disrupt whiteness in the school, and when 440 00:27:49,200 --> 00:27:54,600 Speaker 1: he questioned the phrasing that one instructor used used the 441 00:27:54,640 --> 00:27:59,480 Speaker 1: phrase so called United States. And when he questioned the 442 00:27:59,520 --> 00:28:03,280 Speaker 1: idea of disrupting whiteness, he said, well what does that mean? 443 00:28:04,359 --> 00:28:10,199 Speaker 1: And that got him banned from training sessions. These what 444 00:28:10,400 --> 00:28:16,560 Speaker 1: was being the teachers were trained with anti police, anti capitalism, 445 00:28:16,680 --> 00:28:23,640 Speaker 1: and anti Israeli rhetoric. By the way, while they were 446 00:28:23,680 --> 00:28:27,080 Speaker 1: teaching all this nonsense, English and math scores hit a 447 00:28:27,080 --> 00:28:30,119 Speaker 1: new low. Less than four percent of the students are 448 00:28:30,160 --> 00:28:34,800 Speaker 1: proficient in math, less than twelve percent in English, and 449 00:28:34,880 --> 00:28:39,240 Speaker 1: that's down four points in both categories. But the kids 450 00:28:39,240 --> 00:28:44,040 Speaker 1: were introduced into hating police, hating capitalism, and hating Israel. 451 00:28:46,600 --> 00:28:50,640 Speaker 1: Federal tax money. That's what you're working for in Heyward, California. 452 00:28:50,880 --> 00:28:54,920 Speaker 1: Conways here, brain, rain, rain, rain, rain, I didn't notice. 453 00:28:55,160 --> 00:28:56,200 Speaker 1: That's all we're talking about. 454 00:28:57,000 --> 00:28:59,680 Speaker 7: You know, if you lived in New York, this would 455 00:28:59,680 --> 00:29:03,280 Speaker 7: be a story in the weather section of the eleven 456 00:29:03,280 --> 00:29:08,560 Speaker 7: o'clock News. I grew up back east, right right, this 457 00:29:09,600 --> 00:29:12,040 Speaker 7: so called back east, so called back east. 458 00:29:12,440 --> 00:29:16,520 Speaker 1: I drove in rain like this, literally hundreds of times. 459 00:29:17,160 --> 00:29:20,160 Speaker 1: It rains, like every three four days. I know there's 460 00:29:20,440 --> 00:29:23,280 Speaker 1: it's a heavy storm. But John, and this is absurd. 461 00:29:23,560 --> 00:29:25,760 Speaker 7: You don't live in the East Coast anymore. You live 462 00:29:25,800 --> 00:29:29,400 Speaker 7: out here where we get excited. I know, and I 463 00:29:29,480 --> 00:29:32,880 Speaker 7: enjoy watching storms. I'm a big weather guy, and I 464 00:29:32,880 --> 00:29:34,960 Speaker 7: love the sign, the excitement of it. 465 00:29:35,040 --> 00:29:38,160 Speaker 1: By the way, I defended you, I'm sorry. I didn't 466 00:29:38,200 --> 00:29:38,719 Speaker 1: mean interrupt you. 467 00:29:38,800 --> 00:29:40,960 Speaker 7: That's all right, but I defended you, and I want 468 00:29:40,960 --> 00:29:43,160 Speaker 7: to get that out of the way. I said that 469 00:29:43,240 --> 00:29:46,000 Speaker 7: you filling up those sand bags was an authentic picture, 470 00:29:46,040 --> 00:29:48,200 Speaker 7: that you'd fill your own sandbags. And some people of 471 00:29:48,280 --> 00:29:50,520 Speaker 7: work here said that he probably has somebody that pays 472 00:29:50,760 --> 00:29:51,400 Speaker 7: he pants to do. 473 00:29:51,560 --> 00:29:56,280 Speaker 1: I confronted Shannon skeptics. Yes, oh, I didn't know she 474 00:29:56,360 --> 00:29:58,800 Speaker 1: was in the skeptic that what that? Yeah, that wasn't 475 00:29:58,840 --> 00:30:01,640 Speaker 1: capable of that kind of ma a labor. No, I 476 00:30:01,760 --> 00:30:03,600 Speaker 1: filled forty forty sand bags. 477 00:30:03,680 --> 00:30:04,160 Speaker 6: Wow? 478 00:30:04,240 --> 00:30:07,840 Speaker 1: Is that right? Yes, Aw's you're back. I so swear. 479 00:30:10,480 --> 00:30:11,960 Speaker 7: I did the same thing. I work around the house. 480 00:30:12,000 --> 00:30:13,920 Speaker 7: I'm paralyzed for a week, I know. I mean, I 481 00:30:14,000 --> 00:30:17,120 Speaker 7: don't do that every day, but I'm capable. Can you imagine, 482 00:30:17,520 --> 00:30:19,960 Speaker 7: But can you imagine the guys that work in construction 483 00:30:20,040 --> 00:30:21,680 Speaker 7: their whole life, what you know, getting out of bed 484 00:30:21,680 --> 00:30:24,280 Speaker 7: at fifty five with that's like, oh yeah, oh my god. 485 00:30:25,040 --> 00:30:26,800 Speaker 1: They don't get out of it. They don't get up anymore. 486 00:30:26,800 --> 00:30:27,400 Speaker 1: It's so worse. 487 00:30:28,000 --> 00:30:31,200 Speaker 7: I understand why you turn to needles and pills and 488 00:30:31,560 --> 00:30:33,080 Speaker 7: pot and drugs. 489 00:30:33,120 --> 00:30:35,960 Speaker 1: And my dad was in a factory for almost fifty years, 490 00:30:36,320 --> 00:30:39,040 Speaker 1: and but he worked in factory till it was seventy two. 491 00:30:39,520 --> 00:30:42,000 Speaker 1: That's great, I tell, I tell he just couldn't do 492 00:30:42,000 --> 00:30:44,080 Speaker 1: it anymore. My dad, my grandfather is the same thing. 493 00:30:44,320 --> 00:30:48,120 Speaker 7: My grandfather and his five dope friends in Cleveland. Their 494 00:30:48,240 --> 00:30:51,520 Speaker 7: their job was to fill five hundred to a thousand 495 00:30:51,600 --> 00:30:55,280 Speaker 7: gallons propane tanks.
