1 00:00:00,720 --> 00:00:02,960 Speaker 1: If I am six forty, you're listening to the John 2 00:00:02,960 --> 00:00:09,160 Speaker 1: and Ken Show on demand on the iHeartRadio app. You 3 00:00:09,160 --> 00:00:10,960 Speaker 1: can hear the show from one till four every day, 4 00:00:10,960 --> 00:00:14,080 Speaker 1: and then after four o'clock on the iHeart app John 5 00:00:14,080 --> 00:00:15,800 Speaker 1: and Ken on Demand podcast. 6 00:00:17,160 --> 00:00:18,840 Speaker 2: Like I said, we'll be getting to more of the 7 00:00:18,920 --> 00:00:22,040 Speaker 2: crazy legislation that's made its way to dipity de Gavin 8 00:00:22,120 --> 00:00:25,040 Speaker 2: Newsom's desk. It was a frenzy on Friday as they 9 00:00:25,040 --> 00:00:28,280 Speaker 2: went out of session for months in Sacramento. There are 10 00:00:28,320 --> 00:00:30,720 Speaker 2: some whoppers in there. I'll just give you one headline, 11 00:00:31,000 --> 00:00:34,159 Speaker 2: the speed camera bill that's made you to Newsom. All right, 12 00:00:34,200 --> 00:00:37,000 Speaker 2: so we'll get into all this coming up later on 13 00:00:37,040 --> 00:00:40,599 Speaker 2: this hour. We're gonna begin with the United Auto Workers strike, 14 00:00:41,360 --> 00:00:45,360 Speaker 2: which made news. It was announced on Friday. The union 15 00:00:45,400 --> 00:00:49,800 Speaker 2: has simultaneously struck against General Motors, Ford and John. 16 00:00:49,840 --> 00:00:52,960 Speaker 1: You'll have to help me. Stalantis Nay owned Chrysler. 17 00:00:53,840 --> 00:00:56,160 Speaker 2: I didn't know they were the name there. Yeah, Oh 18 00:00:56,160 --> 00:00:59,160 Speaker 2: that's their name now Stalantis Stalantis is the parent company. 19 00:00:59,560 --> 00:01:01,560 Speaker 2: Oh okay, well, it was the first time in history 20 00:01:01,600 --> 00:01:06,000 Speaker 2: all three have been struck. They apparently elected some head 21 00:01:06,040 --> 00:01:09,680 Speaker 2: by the name of Sean Fain who promised new militancy 22 00:01:10,040 --> 00:01:14,559 Speaker 2: against the auto companies, record profits, big pay for the executives. 23 00:01:14,720 --> 00:01:18,680 Speaker 2: We're coming to get it. Well, they're really asking for well, 24 00:01:18,760 --> 00:01:21,080 Speaker 2: they want a thirty six percent pay increase over four 25 00:01:21,120 --> 00:01:23,520 Speaker 2: years and a thirty two hour workweek with overtime for 26 00:01:23,560 --> 00:01:27,080 Speaker 2: additional hours. They want the restoration of retiree health benefits 27 00:01:27,400 --> 00:01:32,400 Speaker 2: and defined benefit pensions for all workers. Dah, if you 28 00:01:32,480 --> 00:01:34,680 Speaker 2: heard me right, that's like the government thing. Remember that 29 00:01:35,040 --> 00:01:36,480 Speaker 2: went out the way of four to one k's a 30 00:01:36,520 --> 00:01:38,520 Speaker 2: long time ago, but they want. 31 00:01:38,319 --> 00:01:41,720 Speaker 1: It back for all workers to find pension. Well, the 32 00:01:41,880 --> 00:01:47,200 Speaker 1: defined pensions almost bankrupted the big automakers fifteen years ago 33 00:01:47,319 --> 00:01:49,400 Speaker 1: and they had to get rid of them. And because 34 00:01:49,400 --> 00:01:54,520 Speaker 1: they're unsustainable, right, there's no way in the end for 35 00:01:54,600 --> 00:01:57,120 Speaker 1: the companies to pay that. You have to take the 36 00:01:57,160 --> 00:01:59,120 Speaker 1: responsibility and invest the money yourself. 37 00:01:59,400 --> 00:02:01,960 Speaker 2: The response this is the automakers will give you maybe 38 00:02:02,000 --> 00:02:04,559 Speaker 2: seventeen and a half to twenty percent, but a thirty 39 00:02:04,600 --> 00:02:08,200 Speaker 2: two hour workweek, restoration of retirement benefits for newer workers 40 00:02:08,800 --> 00:02:09,800 Speaker 2: and non starters. 41 00:02:09,840 --> 00:02:11,280 Speaker 1: They're not going to go for that. Well, go out 42 00:02:11,280 --> 00:02:11,760 Speaker 1: of business. 43 00:02:12,760 --> 00:02:14,919 Speaker 2: So a lot of this apparently can be traced back 44 00:02:15,000 --> 00:02:17,080 Speaker 2: at least according to stories actually in both the New 45 00:02:17,160 --> 00:02:19,960 Speaker 2: York Times and the Wall Street Journal, to this push 46 00:02:20,040 --> 00:02:24,160 Speaker 2: towards electric vehicle production. That's part of the problem here 47 00:02:25,360 --> 00:02:28,760 Speaker 2: because of the Biden administration's policy mandating a rapid transition 48 00:02:28,800 --> 00:02:31,000 Speaker 2: to electric vehicles. And of course we know what California 49 00:02:31,040 --> 00:02:34,880 Speaker 2: is doing. The EUAW knows that electric vehicles require fewer 50 00:02:34,880 --> 00:02:38,320 Speaker 2: workers to make and will jeopardize union jobs making gas 51 00:02:38,360 --> 00:02:42,560 Speaker 2: power jobs. In fact, it says in this story that 52 00:02:42,919 --> 00:02:46,520 Speaker 2: Ford lost nearly sixty thousand dollars on every EV it's 53 00:02:46,639 --> 00:02:49,639 Speaker 2: sold in the first quarter of this year. They lost 54 00:02:49,680 --> 00:02:51,720 Speaker 2: sixty grand on each electric vehicle. 55 00:02:52,120 --> 00:02:55,520 Speaker 1: Yeah, they lost I think four and a half billion dollars. 56 00:02:56,520 --> 00:03:00,800 Speaker 2: Their profits are still being generated by gas powered pickups 57 00:03:00,840 --> 00:03:01,560 Speaker 2: and SUVs. 58 00:03:02,240 --> 00:03:06,000 Speaker 1: That's what's really keeping the automaks of Detroit going still 59 00:03:06,080 --> 00:03:10,720 Speaker 1: is like Ford doesn't make I forgot, they either make 60 00:03:10,960 --> 00:03:14,560 Speaker 1: zero or only one sedan model. They don't do that anymore. 61 00:03:14,880 --> 00:03:18,200 Speaker 1: It's pickup trucks and SUVs because they people will patch 62 00:03:18,280 --> 00:03:21,280 Speaker 1: what people drive and they get the huge profits. And 63 00:03:21,400 --> 00:03:25,040 Speaker 1: as I mentioned before, the dealers have a lot of 64 00:03:25,240 --> 00:03:28,320 Speaker 1: electric vehicles on the lot and nobody wants them, you know, 65 00:03:28,320 --> 00:03:31,960 Speaker 1: for obvious reasons there's no charging stations. I mean, the 66 00:03:31,960 --> 00:03:35,520 Speaker 1: horror stories are multiplied by the day. Almost every day 67 00:03:35,560 --> 00:03:38,760 Speaker 1: I read about an ev horror story where people get 68 00:03:38,960 --> 00:03:43,120 Speaker 1: stuck trying to find a charging station one that works. 69 00:03:43,160 --> 00:03:47,880 Speaker 1: So it's it's it's a failure at this moment. Maybe 70 00:03:47,880 --> 00:03:52,040 Speaker 1: it works someday twenty years or fifty years. But the 71 00:03:52,080 --> 00:03:57,120 Speaker 1: government is giving the companies tons of tax money to 72 00:03:57,320 --> 00:04:01,880 Speaker 1: force them into manufactured during these cars that nobody wants. 73 00:04:02,600 --> 00:04:06,240 Speaker 1: And it takes far fewer workers to manufacture electric cars 74 00:04:06,320 --> 00:04:09,400 Speaker 1: because there are many parts that are not necessary anymore. 75 00:04:10,200 --> 00:04:14,760 Speaker 1: You don't need the whole chain that burns the gasoline. 76 00:04:16,400 --> 00:04:20,320 Speaker 2: Yeah, so it says here workers are trying to defend 77 00:04:20,400 --> 00:04:23,560 Speaker 2: jobs as manufacturing shifts, some in turtle combustion engines to 78 00:04:23,640 --> 00:04:27,839 Speaker 2: batteries because they have fewer parts. Electric cars can be 79 00:04:27,839 --> 00:04:31,960 Speaker 2: made with fewer workers in gasoline vehicles. A favorable outcome 80 00:04:31,960 --> 00:04:35,240 Speaker 2: would give the union a strong calling card. But if 81 00:04:35,240 --> 00:04:37,680 Speaker 2: it then tries to organize employees of Tesla, you see, 82 00:04:37,800 --> 00:04:42,839 Speaker 2: that's the response from GM and FORD is that we 83 00:04:42,920 --> 00:04:45,000 Speaker 2: have to compete with companies like Tesla's not unionized. 84 00:04:45,040 --> 00:04:48,839 Speaker 1: Tesla's not unionized. Neither is Hundai. Yeah, and you know 85 00:04:48,880 --> 00:04:52,440 Speaker 1: what else is that a lot of jobs have moved 86 00:04:52,440 --> 00:04:55,279 Speaker 1: to the South. And this is kind of ironic because 87 00:04:55,360 --> 00:04:59,000 Speaker 1: in the conservative Republican states, people there are right to 88 00:04:59,040 --> 00:05:03,480 Speaker 1: work laws and a lot of these auto factories work 89 00:05:04,000 --> 00:05:10,080 Speaker 1: without unionization, right, So the companies keep moving their operations south. 90 00:05:11,040 --> 00:05:15,800 Speaker 1: Even the foreign companies, the ones that manufacture here make 91 00:05:15,880 --> 00:05:21,840 Speaker 1: it in the South. So you have democratic states that 92 00:05:21,960 --> 00:05:27,040 Speaker 1: allow unions. But that drives up the cost of production tremendously, 93 00:05:28,600 --> 00:05:31,359 Speaker 1: which is the same thing that you're to kill the 94 00:05:31,400 --> 00:05:36,120 Speaker 1: auto industry fifteen years ago. Unions cost too much money 95 00:05:37,040 --> 00:05:40,480 Speaker 1: for automakers to compete. They do. 96 00:05:40,680 --> 00:05:44,960 Speaker 2: That's so they're competing with Comparently, Hyundai is going to 97 00:05:45,000 --> 00:05:47,400 Speaker 2: open up, as you just mentioned, an EV plant in 98 00:05:47,440 --> 00:05:49,839 Speaker 2: the south in Georgia, massive new factory. 99 00:05:49,960 --> 00:05:53,720 Speaker 1: And if you keep voting for this crowd this particular 100 00:05:53,720 --> 00:06:00,400 Speaker 1: crowded Democrats with their weird green energy electric vehicle fetish, 101 00:06:00,480 --> 00:06:03,920 Speaker 1: there's going to be fewer jobs. So you've got to 102 00:06:04,000 --> 00:06:08,119 Speaker 1: vote differently. This is what happens when the government gets 103 00:06:08,160 --> 00:06:11,520 Speaker 1: involved in industrial production. This is what they did in 104 00:06:11,600 --> 00:06:16,679 Speaker 1: Russia and the entire nation's economy tanked, And that'll happen here. 105 00:06:16,760 --> 00:06:22,320 Speaker 1: You can't subsidize a product with billions of dollars when 106 00:06:22,320 --> 00:06:25,279 Speaker 1: the market doesn't want it. You're just going to have 107 00:06:25,360 --> 00:06:27,359 Speaker 1: the car sit there and eventually they're going to have 108 00:06:27,400 --> 00:06:28,400 Speaker 1: to be junked. 109 00:06:29,720 --> 00:06:32,440 Speaker 2: Ford said in July, it's electric vehicle business is going 110 00:06:32,520 --> 00:06:35,120 Speaker 2: to lose four and a half billion dollars this year. 111 00:06:36,560 --> 00:06:38,560 Speaker 2: So I don't know how long they can sustain that, 112 00:06:38,640 --> 00:06:41,000 Speaker 2: except that they're still profiting. I guess it's all being 113 00:06:41,000 --> 00:06:42,719 Speaker 2: made up by the gas powered cars. 114 00:06:42,800 --> 00:06:46,400 Speaker 1: Yeah. Well, the thing is when something can't go on, 115 00:06:46,440 --> 00:06:48,880 Speaker 1: there's like a famous thing. When something can't go on, 116 00:06:49,279 --> 00:06:52,040 Speaker 1: it doesn't. So you can't lose four and a half 117 00:06:52,080 --> 00:06:55,360 Speaker 1: billion dollars a month. You can't have your your dealerships 118 00:06:55,400 --> 00:06:58,360 Speaker 1: with dozens and dozens of cars nobody wants. I've ever 119 00:06:58,400 --> 00:07:02,160 Speaker 1: seen a business that puts product out on the shelves 120 00:07:02,440 --> 00:07:05,680 Speaker 1: that nobody buys and they stay in business. That has 121 00:07:05,720 --> 00:07:09,039 Speaker 1: never happened in the history of capitalism. They did. You know, 122 00:07:09,040 --> 00:07:11,520 Speaker 1: maybe in communist nations they put out stuff and they 123 00:07:11,560 --> 00:07:12,640 Speaker 1: try to force you to buy it. 124 00:07:12,880 --> 00:07:16,040 Speaker 2: Well, the advantage of Tesla's had and they're still growing, 125 00:07:16,560 --> 00:07:18,680 Speaker 2: is that they have an incredible charging network, and I 126 00:07:18,680 --> 00:07:22,800 Speaker 2: think you're probably aware that they're going to allow some 127 00:07:22,840 --> 00:07:26,040 Speaker 2: of the other auto manufacturer's cars to come in and 128 00:07:26,120 --> 00:07:27,960 Speaker 2: charge and their network. 129 00:07:28,560 --> 00:07:29,800 Speaker 1: See, you can. 130 00:07:29,960 --> 00:07:34,040 Speaker 2: Modify the charging device and the plug into the car 131 00:07:34,480 --> 00:07:36,600 Speaker 2: in order to make it fit other cars. And that's 132 00:07:36,600 --> 00:07:38,880 Speaker 2: going to happen for a number of the automakers, I think, 133 00:07:38,920 --> 00:07:41,160 Speaker 2: beginning with next year's model year for some of them, 134 00:07:41,560 --> 00:07:44,080 Speaker 2: not the current cars, but I'm saying when they manufacture 135 00:07:45,360 --> 00:07:47,880 Speaker 2: forward next year, it'll be capable of. 136 00:07:48,000 --> 00:07:51,679 Speaker 1: Charging it at Tesla Tesla superchargers. Yeah. 137 00:07:51,840 --> 00:07:54,000 Speaker 2: Well, well it will probably help people in the charging 138 00:07:54,040 --> 00:07:58,080 Speaker 2: network at least to go further distances. But you know, 139 00:07:58,240 --> 00:08:03,520 Speaker 2: I see these electric vehicle advocates and evs are not 140 00:08:03,680 --> 00:08:06,480 Speaker 2: made for a road trip, right, And they say things. 141 00:08:06,280 --> 00:08:08,360 Speaker 1: Like, well, you know you're gonna stop for lunch for 142 00:08:08,400 --> 00:08:11,000 Speaker 1: an hour anyway, so you know, you just you just 143 00:08:11,080 --> 00:08:14,000 Speaker 1: charge your vehicle. It's like, well, hold on, you may 144 00:08:14,000 --> 00:08:16,400 Speaker 1: not even get much in an hour. Well, first of all, yeah, 145 00:08:16,400 --> 00:08:20,160 Speaker 1: you're not gonna get much. And secondly, uh, I want 146 00:08:20,160 --> 00:08:21,800 Speaker 1: to stop and pick up a burger and eat it 147 00:08:21,800 --> 00:08:24,960 Speaker 1: in the car and continue driving. So don't tell me 148 00:08:25,000 --> 00:08:26,960 Speaker 1: what I'm gonna do. Oh, you could just stop and 149 00:08:27,040 --> 00:08:28,400 Speaker 1: eat for I don't want to stop and eat for 150 00:08:28,400 --> 00:08:30,840 Speaker 1: an hour? Who are you? What's your name? Were you 151 00:08:30,920 --> 00:08:33,040 Speaker 1: telling me how to eat lunch? What are you telling 152 00:08:33,040 --> 00:08:34,959 Speaker 1: me how long I can stop for? I don't want 153 00:08:34,960 --> 00:08:37,160 Speaker 1: to stop. I want to stop for six minutes. Pump 154 00:08:37,200 --> 00:08:39,040 Speaker 1: up the gas, go get a burger, and be back 155 00:08:39,080 --> 00:08:41,079 Speaker 1: out on the road. I gotta I got, I got 156 00:08:41,080 --> 00:08:41,719 Speaker 1: a place to go. 157 00:08:42,240 --> 00:08:44,319 Speaker 2: And the other problem talk saying to these people, well, 158 00:08:44,320 --> 00:08:46,240 Speaker 2: all you have to do is all you have to 159 00:08:46,240 --> 00:08:48,600 Speaker 2: do is shut your mouth, get out of my business, 160 00:08:48,840 --> 00:08:50,920 Speaker 2: and then don't tell me what kind of car I'm 161 00:08:50,960 --> 00:08:53,959 Speaker 2: gonna drive. The other problem, which we've talked about before 162 00:08:54,080 --> 00:08:56,200 Speaker 2: is the range is not the range, No, it's not. 163 00:08:56,360 --> 00:08:57,120 Speaker 1: That's a lie. 164 00:08:57,400 --> 00:09:01,240 Speaker 2: That's become a tough selling point for the EV manufacturers 165 00:09:01,280 --> 00:09:03,160 Speaker 2: who tell you that, oh, the range is two unwritten 166 00:09:03,280 --> 00:09:05,120 Speaker 2: up in miles.

You know, eventually 205 00:10:59,600 --> 00:11:01,959 Speaker 1: it's gonna be five hundred dollars or eight hundred dollars 206 00:11:02,000 --> 00:11:07,840 Speaker 1: or twelve hundred dollars, and they're gonna just and it's 207 00:11:07,960 --> 00:11:10,880 Speaker 1: just part of an effort to make driving on the 208 00:11:10,960 --> 00:11:13,760 Speaker 1: roads uncomfortable. If they want to reduce the number of 209 00:11:13,800 --> 00:11:16,920 Speaker 1: people who get killed in the streets, put all the 210 00:11:17,000 --> 00:11:23,080 Speaker 1: homeless in the mental institution and the drug rehab centers, conservatorship. Yeah, 211 00:11:23,080 --> 00:11:25,319 Speaker 1: that's right, take all those people off the street and 212 00:11:25,360 --> 00:11:26,800 Speaker 1: let's see what happens to the numbers. 213 00:11:27,679 --> 00:11:29,520 Speaker 2: And I can't believe, you know, going back to that 214 00:11:29,640 --> 00:11:32,400 Speaker 2: story that we what is it one hundred and seventy 215 00:11:32,440 --> 00:11:37,640 Speaker 2: thousand homeless people in California. We don't have enough mental 216 00:11:37,679 --> 00:11:40,560 Speaker 2: health facilities to the state's huge. 217 00:11:40,960 --> 00:11:43,760 Speaker 1: It's a massive state of forty people. Have you really, honestly, 218 00:11:43,920 --> 00:11:46,679 Speaker 1: it's never gonna happen. Look like everything's insurmountable. So we 219 00:11:46,720 --> 00:11:48,400 Speaker 1: can continue to do what we do. When I was 220 00:11:48,480 --> 00:11:51,760 Speaker 1: in Florida, zero homeless people. I was up in Pennsylvania 221 00:11:51,960 --> 00:11:57,040 Speaker 1: visiting my brother. He lives in suburbia. I'm not Philly. 222 00:11:57,760 --> 00:12:00,440 Speaker 1: Almost people in his town, almost people in the city 223 00:12:00,480 --> 00:12:04,280 Speaker 1: I was in in Sarasota, So homeless people anywhere else though, there's. 224 00:12:04,120 --> 00:12:06,679 Speaker 2: No homeless people in many communities of southern California. But 225 00:12:06,679 --> 00:12:08,199 Speaker 2: in la is a different story. 226 00:12:08,240 --> 00:12:10,679 Speaker 1: Because because they allow it, and those are the people 227 00:12:10,679 --> 00:12:12,880 Speaker 1: getting run over, and who are they getting run over by. 228 00:12:13,080 --> 00:12:16,640 Speaker 1: They're by by like crazed drug addicts and gang members 229 00:12:16,679 --> 00:12:19,160 Speaker 1: and people doing street racing. You know, at two o'clock 230 00:12:19,200 --> 00:12:21,240 Speaker 1: in the morning, you don't see the homeless guy wabbling 231 00:12:21,320 --> 00:12:23,760 Speaker 1: around in the middle of the night, and he gets flattened. 232 00:12:23,960 --> 00:12:28,080 Speaker 1: And so they have this crisis here, this emergency. There's 233 00:12:28,080 --> 00:12:29,160 Speaker 1: something about the Spain. 234 00:12:29,920 --> 00:12:32,720 Speaker 2: But it's like, you know, here's the cartoon. This Laura 235 00:12:32,760 --> 00:12:35,080 Speaker 2: Friedman standing there on a quarter in Burbank, right, this 236 00:12:35,160 --> 00:12:35,880 Speaker 2: assembly member. 237 00:12:36,000 --> 00:12:37,800 Speaker 1: Yeah, and she sees a car go by. 238 00:12:37,880 --> 00:12:40,360 Speaker 2: It's eleven miles per hour over the speed limit. Oh 239 00:12:40,440 --> 00:12:42,319 Speaker 2: my god, we got to do something. He's like a 240 00:12:42,360 --> 00:12:45,160 Speaker 2: dead homeless person lying at her feet, right, Yeah, that 241 00:12:45,240 --> 00:12:45,679 Speaker 2: gets no. 242 00:12:45,679 --> 00:12:48,760 Speaker 1: Intention And they know this. That's the thing. They know this, 243 00:12:49,120 --> 00:12:51,520 Speaker 1: so I know their intention is just to steal our 244 00:12:51,559 --> 00:12:56,560 Speaker 1: money and get a little get a little an another 245 00:12:57,440 --> 00:13:01,080 Speaker 1: like psychological boost from controlling us. That's what it is. 246 00:13:01,120 --> 00:13:04,880 Speaker 1: They'd like controlling us, all right. That's what the whole 247 00:13:05,000 --> 00:13:09,040 Speaker 1: COVID fanaticism was about from government is control us. That's 248 00:13:09,080 --> 00:13:11,520 Speaker 1: why they're always on a trigger to make us put 249 00:13:11,559 --> 00:13:14,600 Speaker 1: on a mask again to have another lockdown right time. 250 00:13:14,840 --> 00:13:17,560 Speaker 1: Every time you hear about all slide up ticking COVID case, 251 00:13:17,720 --> 00:13:19,280 Speaker 1: Oh it's not going to be the masks or are 252 00:13:19,320 --> 00:13:22,040 Speaker 1: they going to come back. It's about the impulse to 253 00:13:22,080 --> 00:13:24,319 Speaker 1: you would not get in government unless you wanted to 254 00:13:24,360 --> 00:13:27,720 Speaker 1: control what other people do, and that is true for everyone, 255 00:13:27,840 --> 00:13:30,800 Speaker 1: both parties and government. They just want to control different things. 256 00:13:31,000 --> 00:13:34,000 Speaker 1: It's all the annoying control freaks that you knew throughout 257 00:13:34,000 --> 00:13:37,360 Speaker 1: your life. They're all now in one place in Sacramento. Now, 258 00:13:37,400 --> 00:13:37,719 Speaker 1: to be. 259 00:13:37,760 --> 00:13:41,120 Speaker 2: Clear, this bill is a pilot program and it's only 260 00:13:41,160 --> 00:13:44,000 Speaker 2: allowing this in six California cities including of course Los 261 00:13:44,040 --> 00:13:46,520 Speaker 2: Angeles and Long Beach and Glendale would have to be 262 00:13:46,559 --> 00:13:50,000 Speaker 2: in this lady's home market there, Laura Friedman's Glendale burbank. 263 00:13:51,280 --> 00:13:53,760 Speaker 2: It's supposed to be a five year pilot program.

Oh, 273 00:14:18,760 --> 00:14:20,440 Speaker 2: I know, they're going to tell us they save lives. 274 00:14:20,440 --> 00:14:23,000 Speaker 2: That's what they really of course they will remember. 275 00:14:23,400 --> 00:14:27,480 Speaker 1: Remember stupid feeble Garcettes Vision zero program ten years ago, 276 00:14:28,320 --> 00:14:32,000 Speaker 1: and as soon as he implemented it all the number 277 00:14:32,040 --> 00:14:34,640 Speaker 1: of people killed by cars went up. And why was 278 00:14:34,680 --> 00:14:37,080 Speaker 1: that because coincidentally it was the same time that the 279 00:14:37,080 --> 00:14:41,000 Speaker 1: homeless exploded. If you have people living in the streets 280 00:14:41,040 --> 00:14:43,800 Speaker 1: and sleeping in the streets in the dark, they are 281 00:14:43,840 --> 00:14:47,600 Speaker 1: going to get run over.

I have this ring 337 00:17:29,880 --> 00:17:31,840 Speaker 5: I wear that's by a brand Holed Go Guarded, and 338 00:17:31,880 --> 00:17:33,480 Speaker 5: it has a little knife in there in case I 339 00:17:33,480 --> 00:17:36,359 Speaker 5: need to punch him or something. Because he's been he 340 00:17:36,359 --> 00:17:37,960 Speaker 5: would ride his bike and sneak up on me. 341 00:17:38,480 --> 00:17:40,879 Speaker 4: Landman is afraid of this man, David Kroll, who she 342 00:17:40,960 --> 00:17:43,679 Speaker 4: says was homeless and hung out around her apartment. He 343 00:17:43,760 --> 00:17:46,280 Speaker 4: started stalking her years ago and was sent to prison, 344 00:17:46,560 --> 00:17:49,840 Speaker 4: but was recently released. Landman says she didn't know that 345 00:17:49,960 --> 00:17:52,160 Speaker 4: until a few days ago when neighbors sent her these 346 00:17:52,200 --> 00:17:55,520 Speaker 4: pictures of Kroll near her home wearing an ankle bracelet. 347 00:17:55,880 --> 00:17:59,720 Speaker 5: I was completely shocked. I almost I was in the 348 00:17:59,760 --> 00:18:03,040 Speaker 5: stand disbelief. I almost didn't believe it because I was 349 00:18:03,080 --> 00:18:04,320 Speaker 5: supposed to be notified. 350 00:18:04,960 --> 00:18:08,000 Speaker 4: She then went on social media telling others what is happening. 351 00:18:08,480 --> 00:18:13,680 Speaker 5: I'm really sad to say, super sad to say that 352 00:18:13,720 --> 00:18:15,560 Speaker 5: he's back on the streets in Venice Beach. 353 00:18:16,200 --> 00:18:18,760 Speaker 4: Checking on Kroll's criminal record, we found a number of 354 00:18:18,760 --> 00:18:21,720 Speaker 4: incidents dating back to two thousand and eight, Lanman says. 355 00:18:21,760 --> 00:18:24,760 Speaker 4: In her case, Kroll was convicted of stalking in April 356 00:18:24,760 --> 00:18:27,560 Speaker 4: of twenty twenty two. She says, when he was sentenced 357 00:18:27,560 --> 00:18:30,560 Speaker 4: to six years in prison, he had a violent outburst 358 00:18:30,560 --> 00:18:31,000 Speaker 4: in court. 359 00:18:31,359 --> 00:18:34,840 Speaker 5: He got belligerent in the courtroom. He stood up, be 360 00:18:34,920 --> 00:18:37,240 Speaker 5: banged on the table, turned down, looked at me and 361 00:18:37,520 --> 00:18:40,679 Speaker 5: promised me that he would come back to kill me 362 00:18:40,760 --> 00:18:41,760 Speaker 5: once he was released. 363 00:18:42,080 --> 00:18:44,800 Speaker 4: Landman isn't sure where Kroll is now. The Department of 364 00:18:44,840 --> 00:18:48,080 Speaker 4: Corrections told us Kroll received credits for time served and 365 00:18:48,240 --> 00:18:51,320 Speaker 4: was released on June twenty eighth. It can't comment, however, 366 00:18:51,359 --> 00:18:55,159 Speaker 4: about specific victims or if they were notified. Landman fields, 367 00:18:55,160 --> 00:18:56,520 Speaker 4: the system has let her down. 368 00:18:57,040 --> 00:19:00,159 Speaker 5: They have failed me in so many ways. It was 369 00:19:00,240 --> 00:19:05,160 Speaker 5: such a circus. I am almost not even shocked that 370 00:19:05,200 --> 00:19:06,680 Speaker 5: this has this happened. 371 00:19:07,160 --> 00:19:09,199 Speaker 4: Landman says she is now going to move away from 372 00:19:09,280 --> 00:19:12,720 Speaker 4: Venice and Los Angeles County altogether. She says she simply 373 00:19:12,800 --> 00:19:14,360 Speaker 4: does not feel safe here anymore. 374 00:19:14,880 --> 00:19:17,640 Speaker 2: I had some Channel seven and reporter Carlos Grande. I mean, 375 00:19:17,760 --> 00:19:20,480 Speaker 2: let's go through this story. He's convicted of stalking in 376 00:19:20,520 --> 00:19:23,199 Speaker 2: April of twenty twenty two. He gets six years. But 377 00:19:23,600 --> 00:19:26,119 Speaker 2: where are we now September of twenty twenty three and 378 00:19:26,160 --> 00:19:28,000 Speaker 2: he's walking around Venice with an ankle monel. 379 00:19:28,040 --> 00:19:31,720 Speaker 1: He was released after fourteen months. How does six years 380 00:19:31,760 --> 00:19:36,000 Speaker 1: become fourteen months? And the prison department says credit for 381 00:19:36,080 --> 00:19:39,399 Speaker 1: time served? That is nonsense. But you know what this is. 382 00:19:39,840 --> 00:19:42,879 Speaker 1: This is Prop fifty seven. So I asked Kalia Landman, 383 00:19:43,480 --> 00:19:45,880 Speaker 1: did you vote for Prop fifty seven? Did you vote 384 00:19:45,920 --> 00:19:49,840 Speaker 1: for Prop forty seven? Did you vote for Gavin Newsom? 385 00:19:49,920 --> 00:19:55,000 Speaker 1: And Jerry Brown, who appoints the people to run the 386 00:19:55,480 --> 00:19:59,720 Speaker 1: prison system, to run the parole board. Did you vote 387 00:19:59,720 --> 00:20:03,280 Speaker 1: for the people in the legislature who've destroyed all the 388 00:20:03,320 --> 00:20:07,520 Speaker 1: penalties that we normally gave to creeps like this? This 389 00:20:08,440 --> 00:20:10,639 Speaker 1: is your votes. And I don't know how she voted, 390 00:20:10,640 --> 00:20:14,320 Speaker 1: but hey, she's a woman in Venice. I'm ninety percent 391 00:20:14,359 --> 00:20:18,760 Speaker 1: of the women in Venice vote Democratic, So you tell me, 392 00:20:19,400 --> 00:20:22,240 Speaker 1: this is the karma that you send out into the world. 393 00:20:22,640 --> 00:20:26,320 Speaker 1: You vote for lunatics. Lunatics do stupid things, and suddenly 394 00:20:26,359 --> 00:20:28,920 Speaker 1: you've got to move out of the county because they 395 00:20:29,040 --> 00:20:31,959 Speaker 1: can't take a guy like this and keep him in 396 00:20:31,960 --> 00:20:34,480 Speaker 1: prison for more than fourteen months. 397 00:20:34,640 --> 00:20:37,159 Speaker 2: Hanging out near her home wearing an ankle bracelet, so 398 00:20:37,200 --> 00:20:39,159 Speaker 2: he's already returned to the scene of the crime. 399 00:20:39,520 --> 00:20:41,560 Speaker 1: He's ready to find her. She better get out of there. 400 00:20:41,800 --> 00:20:44,439 Speaker 1: And I'm kind of losing patience with the world. I 401 00:20:44,520 --> 00:20:48,119 Speaker 1: really am. Everybody I know is talking about the crime constantly, 402 00:20:48,400 --> 00:20:51,440 Speaker 1: and all the mental patients and the drug addicts and 403 00:20:51,480 --> 00:20:54,600 Speaker 1: the vagrants running around and the smash and grab robberies, 404 00:20:54,640 --> 00:20:56,840 Speaker 1: you know, and they're all right, everything they're saying is right, 405 00:20:56,880 --> 00:20:59,159 Speaker 1: and they they all want to move. They don't know 406 00:20:59,160 --> 00:21:01,879 Speaker 1: what to do. This happen and in the back of 407 00:21:01,920 --> 00:21:03,280 Speaker 1: my mind, I mean, I could start a fight like 408 00:21:03,320 --> 00:21:05,000 Speaker 1: eight times a day. It's like, who'd you vote for? 409 00:21:05,480 --> 00:21:07,680 Speaker 1: Who did you vote? I know who they voted for. 410 00:21:08,480 --> 00:21:11,080 Speaker 1: They voted for their valid measures. Did you vote what 411 00:21:11,160 --> 00:21:14,480 Speaker 1: now development? Yes?

Did you vote for Prop? 413 00:21:17,359 --> 00:21:21,600 Speaker 1: Fifty seven, which created a world where you could even 414 00:21:21,720 --> 00:21:24,200 Speaker 1: rape an unconscious woman and it's not a serious felony, 415 00:21:25,240 --> 00:21:30,840 Speaker 1: I mean, and and Prop fifty seven more importantly allowed 416 00:21:30,840 --> 00:21:34,840 Speaker 1: the Department of Corrections, which is a stupid name, to 417 00:21:35,119 --> 00:21:38,480 Speaker 1: basically make up sentences after the fact. It doesn't matter 418 00:21:38,520 --> 00:21:41,960 Speaker 1: what the judge says six years for this stalking crime, 419 00:21:42,080 --> 00:21:45,000 Speaker 1: A let's make it fourteen months.

So, 502 00:25:44,960 --> 00:25:48,679 Speaker 2: just like you, Yay is preparing I guess for armageddon 503 00:25:48,720 --> 00:25:49,960 Speaker 2: from Vladimir Putin a. 504 00:25:50,000 --> 00:25:51,240 Speaker 1: Nukes or anyway. 505 00:25:52,119 --> 00:25:55,280 Speaker 2: He wanted all the windows, electricity removed from the home. 506 00:25:56,480 --> 00:26:00,560 Speaker 1: This guy's name is Tony Saxon. Yay alleged he insisted 507 00:26:00,600 --> 00:26:02,000 Speaker 1: that Saxon moved large. 508 00:26:01,800 --> 00:26:04,679 Speaker 2: Generators into the home, and Yay ordered him to get 509 00:26:04,720 --> 00:26:06,239 Speaker 2: the hell out and told him he'd be considered an 510 00:26:06,320 --> 00:26:07,920 Speaker 2: enemy if he did not comply. 511 00:26:08,200 --> 00:26:09,760 Speaker 1: With the orders. And who's this guy. 512 00:26:10,920 --> 00:26:13,560 Speaker 2: He's the contractor, the guy that was doing the work 513 00:26:14,080 --> 00:26:18,520 Speaker 2: at Yay's home. Well, so Yay Yay is pay now, 514 00:26:18,600 --> 00:26:20,920 Speaker 2: Yay didn't pay. That's the other thing. Oh, he says 515 00:26:20,920 --> 00:26:23,160 Speaker 2: he only got like one payment. He says here Yay 516 00:26:23,200 --> 00:26:25,480 Speaker 2: promised to pay him twenty grand a week. Yeah, you know, 517 00:26:25,560 --> 00:26:29,439 Speaker 2: but they made only two payments, one to cover his 518 00:26:29,520 --> 00:26:31,920 Speaker 2: weekly salary, another for the project's budget. So it was 519 00:26:32,000 --> 00:26:33,840 Speaker 2: I guess that was the real fight, right, is that 520 00:26:34,080 --> 00:26:36,879 Speaker 2: I was refusing to do the work right. But apparently 521 00:26:36,920 --> 00:26:39,920 Speaker 2: this guy is laid out in detail that Yay really 522 00:26:39,960 --> 00:26:44,440 Speaker 2: wanted to create quite a bunker, it says here. Yeah, 523 00:26:44,840 --> 00:26:46,679 Speaker 2: and he claims that this was going to violate a 524 00:26:46,720 --> 00:26:51,400 Speaker 2: bunch of labor codes, including dangerous working conditions, unpaid wages, 525 00:26:51,480 --> 00:26:55,560 Speaker 2: wrongful retaliatory termination, it says he. 526 00:26:55,680 --> 00:26:57,240 Speaker 1: But Yay bought the house. 527 00:26:57,040 --> 00:26:59,680 Speaker 2: In September of twenty twenty one in an off market 528 00:26:59,800 --> 00:27:02,080 Speaker 2: d and the idea was to make the home like 529 00:27:02,119 --> 00:27:05,239 Speaker 2: a bomb shelter from the nineteen tens by demolishing the 530 00:27:05,280 --> 00:27:09,920 Speaker 2: marble bathrooms, removing the custom windows, the plumbing electricity, replacing. 531 00:27:09,480 --> 00:27:11,520 Speaker 1: The stairs with slides. I guess you get out of 532 00:27:11,520 --> 00:27:13,960 Speaker 1: there faster with slides. You know what, Kanye needs a 533 00:27:13,960 --> 00:27:18,760 Speaker 1: conservative ship. I think that's kind of the conclusion of 534 00:27:18,800 --> 00:27:23,119 Speaker 1: this story is the theme of today's show. All the 535 00:27:23,160 --> 00:27:26,800 Speaker 1: people that need conservative ships, right, I'm with them on 536 00:27:26,880 --> 00:27:32,879 Speaker 1: the bomb shelter though, Yeah, well he thought at first 537 00:27:32,920 --> 00:27:34,600 Speaker 1: it was just going to be an art project, an 538 00:27:34,680 --> 00:27:37,920 Speaker 1: art project, but it says here he could hide here 539 00:27:37,920 --> 00:27:41,679 Speaker 1: from the Clintons and from the Kardashians in this place. 540 00:27:42,720 --> 00:27:44,479 Speaker 2: I guess that's part of the ramp that Yay went on. 541 00:27:44,600 --> 00:27:47,320 Speaker 2: Clinton's so sort of weird. Yeah, I didn't know that 542 00:27:47,480 --> 00:27:49,600 Speaker 2: the Clintons. I mean, we know about the Kardashians. 543 00:27:49,680 --> 00:27:50,720 Speaker 1: Well, the Kardashians. 544 00:27:50,760 --> 00:27:54,359 Speaker 2: Yeah, he wanted no electricity, he wanted only plants, he 545 00:27:54,400 --> 00:27:56,720 Speaker 2: only wanted candles, he only wanted battery lights. 546 00:27:57,119 --> 00:27:58,879 Speaker 1: You wanted to have everything open and dark. 547 00:27:59,240 --> 00:28:01,240 Speaker 2: You can't keep in the house because he had no 548 00:28:01,280 --> 00:28:04,399 Speaker 2: refrigerator left, there were no windows. I had seagulls flying in. 549 00:28:04,440 --> 00:28:06,480 Speaker 2: Apparently Saxon had to live there where he was working 550 00:28:06,520 --> 00:28:09,720 Speaker 2: on the place, and I guess not getting paid because 551 00:28:09,720 --> 00:28:12,520 Speaker 2: he said, uh he ya, did not want to be 552 00:28:12,520 --> 00:28:16,200 Speaker 2: a slave to modern conveniences, and I was a special one. 553 00:28:16,359 --> 00:28:20,280 Speaker 2: He wanted his own privatized Wi Fi network, so I 554 00:28:20,280 --> 00:28:24,399 Speaker 2: guess nobody could tap in on this, and he wants 555 00:28:24,440 --> 00:28:28,000 Speaker 2: to have an alternative source of energy. No doors, no windows, 556 00:28:28,000 --> 00:28:31,879 Speaker 2: no fixtures, just concrete. Well, there are no windows. How 557 00:28:31,880 --> 00:28:35,480 Speaker 2: could the seagulls fly in there's no windows. 558 00:28:35,080 --> 00:28:37,760 Speaker 1: Well, because I guess there's an open space. Maybe yeah, 559 00:28:37,760 --> 00:28:41,000 Speaker 1: it's just an open space. Then the radiation is going 560 00:28:41,080 --> 00:28:41,520 Speaker 1: to come in. 561 00:28:42,200 --> 00:28:46,760 Speaker 2: Uh yeah, maybe this wasn't so much about the nukes trying. 562 00:28:46,600 --> 00:28:50,920 Speaker 1: To deconstruct the lunatics thinking, I know, I know. Yeah. 563 00:28:50,960 --> 00:28:53,480 Speaker 2: So, by the way, I heard a report on Putin 564 00:28:53,520 --> 00:28:56,440 Speaker 2: today from I guess it was the Ukrainians that he 565 00:28:56,520 --> 00:28:59,120 Speaker 2: thinks that next year, all of the havoc in the 566 00:28:59,200 --> 00:29:01,320 Speaker 2: United States over the election will give him good cover 567 00:29:01,440 --> 00:29:05,520 Speaker 2: to once again threaten nuclear devastation of Ukraine unless they surrender. 568 00:29:06,560 --> 00:29:10,360 Speaker 1: I watched Zelenski get interviewed on sixty Minutes last night. Oh, 569 00:29:10,400 --> 00:29:11,960 Speaker 1: I think that's where it came that way, That was 570 00:29:12,000 --> 00:29:15,360 Speaker 1: in the story that that that Putin is banking on 571 00:29:16,160 --> 00:29:19,040 Speaker 1: chaos in the United States next year over the election, 572 00:29:19,160 --> 00:29:22,200 Speaker 1: absolute chaos because it's Trump against Biden and that well 573 00:29:22,480 --> 00:29:25,280 Speaker 1: just I don't know, there's a lot of weird movements 574 00:29:25,280 --> 00:29:27,080 Speaker 1: going on out there. I mean, I think I think 575 00:29:27,080 --> 00:29:28,880 Speaker 1: next year is a good year to bet on civil war. 576 00:29:29,080 --> 00:29:33,480 Speaker 1: I do next year, okay, yeah, before the election, before yeah, 577 00:29:33,600 --> 00:29:35,680 Speaker 1: run up to the election. Then if the election doesn't 578 00:29:35,680 --> 00:29:39,080 Speaker 1: go the correct way, then Oh my god, I don't 579 00:29:39,120 --> 00:29:41,360 Speaker 1: know what is the correct way to defense. Who's doing 580 00:29:41,400 --> 00:29:45,600 Speaker 1: the writing. If Trump wins here again, it gets right. 581 00:29:45,600 --> 00:29:48,600 Speaker 1: Could be the antifas versus that insurrection crowd. 582 00:29:48,840 --> 00:29:51,280 Speaker 2: But if Biden wins, here comes the Maga people, the 583 00:29:51,720 --> 00:29:52,640 Speaker 2: capital takeover. 584 00:29:53,640 --> 00:29:54,040 Speaker 1: All right. 585 00:29:54,120 --> 00:29:55,840 Speaker 2: When we come back, we're going to talk to State 586 00:29:55,920 --> 00:29:58,440 Speaker 2: Senator Shannon Grove at least one more time. The Republican 587 00:29:58,480 --> 00:30:01,400 Speaker 2: from Bakersfield finally got her away with her bill to 588 00:30:01,480 --> 00:30:04,120 Speaker 2: go after the sex traffickers of children.
