Here's a toll 0:01:17.640 --> 0:01:20.160 free number. It's eight hundred and ninety four to one, Sean. 0:01:20.319 --> 0:01:22.319 If you want to be a part of the program. 0:01:22.920 --> 0:01:27.759 You know this whole issue of environmental radicalism extremism has 0:01:27.840 --> 0:01:32.080 been with us a long time, and and you've had 0:01:32.160 --> 0:01:36.479 these these groups out there. They have basically been co opted. 0:01:36.520 --> 0:01:38.880 The left has been co opted by these groups and 0:01:38.959 --> 0:01:43.280 pressured by these groups, and slowly, but surely it culminated 0:01:43.480 --> 0:01:48.320 in an administration that is willing to spend a fortune 0:01:48.720 --> 0:01:52.120 of your money when it comes to oh, that's okay, 0:01:52.160 --> 0:01:53.840 you're gonna have to retrofit your home. 0:01:54.040 --> 0:01:54.800 Oh that's okay. 0:01:55.560 --> 0:01:58.160 Uh, you're going to have to get a new washer 0:01:58.280 --> 0:02:03.200 and dryer, new air conditioner, new refrigerator, new appliances without 0:02:03.240 --> 0:02:07.000 any consideration at all. There's a report out today with 0:02:07.480 --> 0:02:11.600 Donald Trump now considering an executive order to protect gas 0:02:11.760 --> 0:02:15.960 powered appliances. You know, consumer watch dogs are pointing out 0:02:16.000 --> 0:02:20.600 how much the Biden administration and their radical environmental agenda 0:02:20.919 --> 0:02:25.919 is costing homeowners and accord. According to the Alliance for Consumers, 0:02:26.480 --> 0:02:31.519 all of these mandated green updates from Biden regulations and 0:02:31.680 --> 0:02:35.880 Harris regulations are called could cost the average American family 0:02:36.040 --> 0:02:40.400 nine thousand dollars. That's on top of Biden inflation, Biden 0:02:40.639 --> 0:02:45.200 energy prices, everything you pay for inflation, everything you buy, 0:02:45.280 --> 0:02:47.840 and every story you go to through the roof and 0:02:48.320 --> 0:02:55.840 it's all based on this ridiculous insanity that America should 0:02:55.919 --> 0:02:59.920 not you know, be fossil fueled. The dependent, I mean, 0:03:00.120 --> 0:03:03.520 the effort to really eliminate all fossil fuels are real. 0:03:04.080 --> 0:03:07.640 We see the sabotage with what the moratorium Joe Biden 0:03:07.720 --> 0:03:09.920 tried to put in place. It will be overcome by 0:03:10.000 --> 0:03:13.240 Donald Trump in the final hours as he's leaving office. 0:03:13.760 --> 0:03:16.840 You know, we're selling off portions of the border walls. 0:03:17.000 --> 0:03:23.359 Just anger, resentment, bitterness, pettiness on his part. It's pretty unbelievable. 0:03:23.440 --> 0:03:26.120 But this movement has been building for some time. The 0:03:26.240 --> 0:03:28.720 year that I went out to the San Joaquin Valley 0:03:29.639 --> 0:03:31.840 and did the story on the Delta smelt was two 0:03:31.880 --> 0:03:36.280 thousand and nine, and they had all of these farms 0:03:36.360 --> 0:03:39.120 as far as the eye can see that we're not 0:03:39.240 --> 0:03:42.760 able to grow crops because they wanted to protect and 0:03:42.880 --> 0:03:45.720 save the water for a little minnow fish called the 0:03:45.840 --> 0:03:49.720 delta smelt. Now you probably are thinking, well, the delta 0:03:49.800 --> 0:03:51.560 smelt is an endangered species. 0:03:51.840 --> 0:03:53.880 No, it's not. It's like a minnow. 0:03:54.400 --> 0:03:56.480 You know, if you've ever been fishing and you take 0:03:56.480 --> 0:03:57.800 a little minnow, you put it on the end of 0:03:57.840 --> 0:03:59.200 your hook to catch a bigger fish. 0:03:59.840 --> 0:04:00.720 Know what it looks like. 0:04:01.160 --> 0:04:04.640 It's not that big a deal, and there's plenty of them, 0:04:04.800 --> 0:04:07.440 probably too many of them. But the fact that the 0:04:07.560 --> 0:04:12.600 government of California chose the Delta smelt not an endangered 0:04:12.640 --> 0:04:17.240 species over farmers and people and their ability to eat 0:04:17.760 --> 0:04:22.800 food at a cost rate that is effective for them 0:04:23.520 --> 0:04:26.720 is insanity. Let's take you back to nine. This is 0:04:26.760 --> 0:04:28.440 when I went out to the San Joaquin Valley. 0:04:28.680 --> 0:04:30.240 Tonight, we bring you an update on a story that 0:04:30.320 --> 0:04:33.279 we covered back in May. The Central Valley of California 0:04:33.680 --> 0:04:36.800 was once considered the bread basket of America, but now 0:04:36.960 --> 0:04:39.800 farms all over that region have been allowed to dry up. 0:04:39.960 --> 0:04:43.400 Now why because of a two inch minnow on the 0:04:43.560 --> 0:04:47.240 endangered species list? How environmentalists claim that the fish was 0:04:47.320 --> 0:04:49.839 getting caught in the water pumps that provided the farms 0:04:49.880 --> 0:04:53.080 with water, so to protect the tiny fish, the pumps 0:04:53.120 --> 0:04:53.840 were turned off. 0:04:54.279 --> 0:04:56.960 Did I ever sound like that, Linda? Really, it is 0:04:57.120 --> 0:04:59.960 so painful to hear that. Even I have to say. 0:05:00.240 --> 0:05:02.680 What's funnier about it is looking at it with you 0:05:02.839 --> 0:05:06.239 and Devin Nunez, and it's just I don't. 0:05:06.040 --> 0:05:09.120 Know, it was just funny, oh funny for you not 0:05:09.240 --> 0:05:12.280 funny for me, nay for me. Indeed, let's go to 0:05:12.400 --> 0:05:16.360 Donald Trump in twenty eighteen standing next to Gaven Newsom 0:05:16.880 --> 0:05:21.919 and advising him and stressing the importance of proper forest management. 0:05:22.080 --> 0:05:25.200 Listen, cleaned out and protected. 0:05:25.640 --> 0:05:27.400 We've got to take care of the floors, you know, 0:05:27.520 --> 0:05:29.480 the floors of the forest very important. 0:05:30.880 --> 0:05:31.599 You look at other. 0:05:31.520 --> 0:05:35.560 Countries where they do it differently, and it's a whole 0:05:35.640 --> 0:05:38.760 different story. I was with the President of Finland and 0:05:38.839 --> 0:05:42.440 he said, we have a much different We're a forest nation. 0:05:42.600 --> 0:05:45.200 He called it a forest nation. And they spent a 0:05:45.240 --> 0:05:48.479 lot of time on breaking and cleaning and doing things 0:05:48.600 --> 0:05:51.360 and they don't have any problem. And what it is, 0:05:51.440 --> 0:05:55.919 it's a very small problem. So I know everybody's looking 0:05:56.000 --> 0:05:59.160 at that to that end and it's going to work out. 0:05:59.480 --> 0:06:03.040 Oh you see nothing but passing the bug flame and 0:06:03.360 --> 0:06:06.240 no accountability of people that have been in office many 0:06:06.360 --> 0:06:11.760 decades out in California. And the bottom line is is 0:06:11.880 --> 0:06:16.400 that the mismanagement of California's fire policies have made it 0:06:16.640 --> 0:06:20.800 vulnerable year after year after year. As this wildfire now 0:06:20.960 --> 0:06:25.160 is raging through not only the Pacific Palisades but now 0:06:25.200 --> 0:06:28.480 into the Hollywood Hills, into Santa Monica, and God knows 0:06:28.560 --> 0:06:32.320 how far and why this is going to go. The 0:06:32.400 --> 0:06:34.960 fire has not been contained as of this hour, and 0:06:35.600 --> 0:06:39.320 hopefully some of the winds, you know, are beginning to 0:06:39.400 --> 0:06:41.600 die down a little bit according to some reports, that 0:06:41.640 --> 0:06:44.440 would be good. But people's lives have been lost. Thousands 0:06:44.520 --> 0:06:48.240 of homes have been lost. And you know, everybody's more 0:06:48.360 --> 0:06:52.440 concerned about quote Trump proofing California when they should have 0:06:52.520 --> 0:06:56.560 been fire proofing people's communities knowing that they have this 0:06:56.800 --> 0:07:01.920 history of wildfires. Now, our friend Mark Bernovich, former Attorney 0:07:02.000 --> 0:07:05.920 General with the Great State of Arizona, handled a lot 0:07:06.000 --> 0:07:09.760 of litigation relating to these rules, dealing with quote, carbon 0:07:09.840 --> 0:07:16.600 emissions and job killing environmental regulations and anyway he joins us. 0:07:16.880 --> 0:07:20.600 And this has now been building for decades. That clip 0:07:20.680 --> 0:07:24.200 I've played, which by the way, was very distorted. I 0:07:24.200 --> 0:07:26.600 don't think that sounded like me at all, But that 0:07:27.080 --> 0:07:29.960 clip was from two thousand and nine, a long time ago. 0:07:30.040 --> 0:07:31.080 We've been on this issue. 0:07:31.840 --> 0:07:33.680 Well, Sean, thanks for having me on. And I will 0:07:33.720 --> 0:07:35.800 say your voice is improving with age, so that you 0:07:35.880 --> 0:07:38.760 got that going for you. Sometimes when I'm on your show, 0:07:38.840 --> 0:07:40.280 people will call me or text me and say it 0:07:40.360 --> 0:07:43.000 sound like Darth Vader. So I'm not sure what that's about, 0:07:43.080 --> 0:07:45.680 but I will let me just as you said, this 0:07:45.760 --> 0:07:47.800 has been building for decades. And this is what I 0:07:47.920 --> 0:07:50.560 used to always say, even in court, that when the 0:07:50.680 --> 0:07:54.920 Soviet Union collapsed, communism didn't die. All those people just 0:07:55.080 --> 0:07:58.160 ended up in the environmental movement. Make no mistake about it. 0:07:58.280 --> 0:08:00.760 This has become a religion for people. And it's a 0:08:00.960 --> 0:08:04.720 terrible tragedy what is happening in California right now. But 0:08:04.960 --> 0:08:08.840 the reality is for decades environmentalists, as you pointed out, 0:08:09.200 --> 0:08:12.400 have you know, stopped you know, water from throwing to 0:08:12.480 --> 0:08:16.480 the southern California or flowing into farms because of species 0:08:16.600 --> 0:08:19.680 that are using the Dangerous Species Act for protected species 0:08:19.760 --> 0:08:22.760 or other species that are plentiful. But we saw even 0:08:22.800 --> 0:08:25.080 when I was ag we were involved with litigation in 0:08:25.080 --> 0:08:28.960 the Ninth Circuit where these environmental groups basically use NEPA, 0:08:29.160 --> 0:08:32.040 the National Environmental Protection Act, to go into court to 0:08:32.160 --> 0:08:35.160 stop any sort of development or even forest sitting. So 0:08:35.320 --> 0:08:37.560 they think they know what how to manage a forest 0:08:37.679 --> 0:08:41.160 or land better than the Forest Service. And what ends 0:08:41.240 --> 0:08:44.280 up happening. They first of all, they destroyed the logging industry, 0:08:44.440 --> 0:08:47.400 in the timber industry in Arizona. Secondly, because you don't 0:08:47.480 --> 0:08:51.280 sind forests out anymore, or they don't send the woods 0:08:51.320 --> 0:08:54.079 and the mountains in California anymore. What ends up happening 0:08:54.160 --> 0:08:57.000 is you end up getting more trees per acre, so 0:08:57.120 --> 0:09:00.640 when you have a fire, it's more intense, it's harder 0:09:00.679 --> 0:09:03.480 to fight. And not only that, if the environmentals are smart, 0:09:03.520 --> 0:09:06.040 they would recognize that when there's more trees per acre, 0:09:06.559 --> 0:09:10.079 that means there's less flow in the spring into the 0:09:10.200 --> 0:09:14.320 reservoirs in California and Arizona and other places because there's 0:09:14.360 --> 0:09:18.480 more trees sucking at more water. So the environmentalists created this. 0:09:18.679 --> 0:09:22.599 There is a man made crisis with our environment, but 0:09:22.679 --> 0:09:25.959 it's created by the zealots in the environmental movement that 0:09:26.160 --> 0:09:29.000 care more about minnows than they do about human beings. 0:09:29.800 --> 0:09:33.360 It really is something. Correct me if I'm wrong, mister 0:09:33.400 --> 0:09:36.360 Attorney General. My understanding is you can actually go to 0:09:36.480 --> 0:09:38.360 college and get a degree in forestry. 0:09:38.440 --> 0:09:39.960 Is that not correct? 0:09:40.920 --> 0:09:41.079 You know? 0:09:41.960 --> 0:09:44.600 I have a beef with the higher education establishment. That's 0:09:44.600 --> 0:09:47.120 what it is. So I'm guessing they offer all sorts 0:09:47.160 --> 0:09:50.319 of degrees and all sorts of like crazy studies that 0:09:50.400 --> 0:09:54.040 are pretty much, I don't know, worthless. But that's a 0:09:54.080 --> 0:09:57.320 whole different debate discussion, because I sued the universities here 0:09:58.160 --> 0:10:00.560 and it was crazy what we found out during discovery 0:10:00.640 --> 0:10:02.599 of not only were people's tax dollars or going to 0:10:02.640 --> 0:10:05.600 public universities, but the types of classes that people were 0:10:05.679 --> 0:10:08.800 forced to take and the type of degrees that were offered. Anyway. 0:10:09.000 --> 0:10:11.760 But getting back to the environmental stuff, which we I 0:10:12.000 --> 0:10:14.360 was very involved in. One of the things that we 0:10:14.440 --> 0:10:18.200 got our members. Don't forget the ESG, the Environmental, Social 0:10:18.280 --> 0:10:22.040 and Governance scores. Biden's SEC went out right towards the 0:10:22.120 --> 0:10:23.840 end of my term as AG. We went into court 0:10:23.920 --> 0:10:28.920 to stop Biden's SEC Security and the SEIS Commission from promulgating. 0:10:29.000 --> 0:10:32.480 They had new rules that basically added all these burdensome 0:10:32.520 --> 0:10:36.280 requirements on publicly traded companies and they literally had to 0:10:36.320 --> 0:10:38.880 consider their ESG score. I mean, I always say that, 0:10:38.920 --> 0:10:41.280 you know, people like my mom that worked very hard. 0:10:41.600 --> 0:10:43.400 You know what the green she cares about is the 0:10:43.440 --> 0:10:46.720 green and her retirement account. She doesn't want the SEC 0:10:47.120 --> 0:10:49.480 saving you know, force. I mean, that's not the job 0:10:49.640 --> 0:10:53.440 of federal bureaucrats, and as you said, as I've said, 0:10:53.760 --> 0:10:56.520 make no mistake about it, This environmental movement has become 0:10:56.559 --> 0:11:00.920 a religion for some people and it is who creates 0:11:00.960 --> 0:11:03.079 all their meaning for them. And they literally care more 0:11:03.080 --> 0:11:06.280 about trees or smelts or whatever than they do about 0:11:06.360 --> 0:11:10.000 human beings. And it's not only a cost in dollars, 0:11:10.080 --> 0:11:12.360 as you said earlier. You know, we're talking about thousand 0:11:12.440 --> 0:11:14.559 dollars in costs. And you know we were involved in litigation. 0:11:14.679 --> 0:11:18.280 We tried to see Biden over his rules on the appliances. 0:11:18.360 --> 0:11:21.679 But this SD stuff, this is very roke. And this 0:11:21.880 --> 0:11:24.440 is the stuff where they're going to basically co opt 0:11:24.480 --> 0:11:27.520 their takeover a lot of companies. And this is the 0:11:27.640 --> 0:11:30.240 Left wants to control your pocket book. They want to 0:11:30.280 --> 0:11:33.000 control you through regulations. And once you can control people's 0:11:33.080 --> 0:11:36.280 livelihoods and their property, then you can control the way 0:11:36.320 --> 0:11:39.199 they vote. And so this is all classic neo Marxism, 0:11:39.520 --> 0:11:42.360 you know, the playbook. They've just latched onto the environmental 0:11:42.440 --> 0:11:44.600 movement to achieve their goals and their ends. 0:11:45.760 --> 0:11:49.840 It really is amazing how they masquerade as environmentalists. Let 0:11:49.880 --> 0:11:52.480 me ask you, how do you think the air quality 0:11:52.559 --> 0:11:53.720 in la is today? 0:11:55.000 --> 0:11:57.240 It's terrible. It's always terrible, you know. And one of 0:11:57.280 --> 0:11:59.640 the things that's really quick we were involved in air 0:11:59.720 --> 0:12:01.800 qual litigation. I was ag One of the things that 0:12:01.920 --> 0:12:06.040 bothered me so much is Southern California was exempt from 0:12:06.080 --> 0:12:09.240 a lot of the the federal air requirements because it's California. 0:12:09.360 --> 0:12:12.680 They get treated differently. And it is a terrible tragedy 0:12:12.720 --> 0:12:15.680 what's going on there right now. But people should realize 0:12:15.880 --> 0:12:19.680 this is what happens when you californaicated state and they've 0:12:19.760 --> 0:12:23.160 created not only job killing regulations, they've pandered to the 0:12:23.240 --> 0:12:26.400 far left, to the environmentalists, and you're going to see 0:12:26.440 --> 0:12:29.720 a bunch of people fleeing that state again. And they said, 0:12:29.720 --> 0:12:31.560 it's a terrible tragedy. But if the'd we're gonna move 0:12:31.600 --> 0:12:35.079 to Arizona, Texas or Florida. I just hope they remember that. 0:12:35.600 --> 0:12:40.120 You know, lots of regulations, insane laws, lots of taxations 0:12:40.200 --> 0:12:43.040 don't work where you have a beautiful ocean and beautiful farmland. 0:12:43.440 --> 0:12:44.680 Ain't gonna work in the deserts. 0:12:45.360 --> 0:12:46.679 All right, quick break, welcome back. 0:12:46.760 --> 0:12:49.599 More with former Arizona Attorney General Mark Burnovitch on the 0:12:49.640 --> 0:12:51.640 other side, we'll get to your calls. I know many 0:12:51.679 --> 0:12:53.480 of you have been very patient today. Eight hundred and 0:12:53.520 --> 0:12:56.880 nine to four one. Shawn is on number. As we continue, right, 0:12:56.960 --> 0:13:00.920 we continue with former Attorney General State of Arizona, Mark 0:13:00.960 --> 0:13:03.160 Bernovitch is with us. He's been involved in a lot 0:13:03.240 --> 0:13:09.040 of the lawsuits involving these environmental lunatics. What you're really 0:13:09.160 --> 0:13:11.480 pointing out, I think is very very clear, and that 0:13:11.720 --> 0:13:16.800 is this environmental radicalism that that movement has has really 0:13:16.960 --> 0:13:23.200 evolved into the leftist Marxist status socialist agendas, as best 0:13:23.280 --> 0:13:25.480 exemplified by the New Green Deal. 0:13:25.640 --> 0:13:29.160 Is that a fair analysis, absolutely, one hundred percent. 0:13:29.640 --> 0:13:32.640 And it is so bad. I remember when I was 0:13:32.720 --> 0:13:35.520 running for reelection of ag you have these left wing 0:13:35.559 --> 0:13:38.920 groups spending millions, millions of dollars to attack me because 0:13:38.960 --> 0:13:40.760 of my views on the environment. I spoke at the 0:13:40.880 --> 0:13:43.440 University of Virginia law school a few years ago about 0:13:43.520 --> 0:13:46.040 what a sham so much of this environmentalism is, and 0:13:46.240 --> 0:13:49.520 like talking about facts and you know why we need 0:13:49.960 --> 0:13:52.600 We don't need these job telling regulations and these statutes. 0:13:52.880 --> 0:13:55.280 And a student is crying, a lawsuit was crying, and 0:13:55.360 --> 0:13:58.240 I told him, I said, my guy, if you can't 0:13:58.280 --> 0:14:01.439 handle me talking about their mental movement for forty five 0:14:01.520 --> 0:14:04.079 minutes and telling you why there's all these all this 0:14:04.200 --> 0:14:06.920 hypocrisy and all these holes in it. And al Gore 0:14:07.040 --> 0:14:09.599 is living in a ten thousand foot square home that 0:14:09.960 --> 0:14:12.800 takes up more energy than the entire blocks around him. 0:14:12.840 --> 0:14:16.679 And Leonardo DiCaprio is preaching environmentalism while he's flying on 0:14:16.840 --> 0:14:19.920 private debts to private islands. There's so much hypocrisy in 0:14:20.000 --> 0:14:23.480 the movement because it is it's neo Marxism, where do 0:14:23.840 --> 0:14:27.160 as they say, not as they do. They are they're hypocrites. 0:14:27.560 --> 0:14:29.800 And if you look at the data, if you trust 0:14:29.840 --> 0:14:32.120 the science wherever you want to say, so much of 0:14:32.160 --> 0:14:34.400 what they're saying is bs. And one of the things 0:14:34.400 --> 0:14:36.640 that I used to point out, there's an article from 0:14:36.640 --> 0:14:39.080 the early seventies and Time magazine that had a picture 0:14:39.080 --> 0:14:40.960 of the Earth with the giant ice sheetover and I 0:14:41.040 --> 0:14:42.480 used to use that. I used to hold it up 0:14:42.640 --> 0:14:45.240 and if you read the first paragraph that Time magazine story, 0:14:45.640 --> 0:14:49.400 it talked about the scientific consensus is in because of 0:14:49.520 --> 0:14:52.480 man kind, we are for chever changing environment and have 0:14:52.600 --> 0:14:56.320 now created a global ice age. And then when temperatures 0:14:56.320 --> 0:14:58.320 started warming up in the eighties and nineties, then it 0:14:58.360 --> 0:15:02.520 became global warming because the Earth's temperature is constantly changing. 0:15:02.880 --> 0:15:05.080 I mean, the Great Lakes are created ten thousand years 0:15:05.080 --> 0:15:07.400 ago by we have an ice age in America, the 0:15:07.480 --> 0:15:09.800 ice age, the ice sheet receded and that's how the 0:15:09.840 --> 0:15:12.440 Great Lakes were formed. And so we've gone through these 0:15:12.520 --> 0:15:15.840 cycles of hot, cold, hot, and cold. And it's the 0:15:16.360 --> 0:15:19.560 arrogance of human beings to think that somehow we are radically, 0:15:19.880 --> 0:15:23.440 you know, changing the environment. But what has happened is 0:15:23.640 --> 0:15:26.240 enough people believe that like a religion. If people have 0:15:26.360 --> 0:15:29.200 lost faith in God, they'll believe in anything. And the 0:15:29.640 --> 0:15:32.880 neo Marxists, the socialists have latched onto it because they 0:15:33.000 --> 0:15:37.360 understand this is how you can emotionally control people, and 0:15:37.440 --> 0:15:39.920 you can create this crisis where people have to act, 0:15:39.960 --> 0:15:42.240 oh my gosh, we need a bigger federal government, or 0:15:42.280 --> 0:15:45.560 we need less trees, we need to save snales instead 0:15:45.600 --> 0:15:48.960 of desalinizing water in southern California. There's all these issues 0:15:49.000 --> 0:15:52.560 which are all about control, and there's so much hypocrisy 0:15:52.560 --> 0:15:54.920 and the environmental movement. Quite honestly, it makes me sick. 0:15:55.720 --> 0:15:56.440 Well, I don't worry. 0:15:56.480 --> 0:15:58.280 By the time they're all said and done, they'll blame 0:15:58.360 --> 0:16:01.600 Donald Trump, I do have to run. We appreciate your 0:16:01.640 --> 0:16:05.200 expertise on this. Former Attorney General Great State of Arizona, 0:16:05.400 --> 0:16:08.200 Mark Bernovich with us. Thank you, sir, We appreciate your time. 0:16:08.680 --> 0:16:10.160 I'm twenty five to the top of the hour of 0:16:10.160 --> 0:16:13.080 your calls. Coming up straight ahead in just a minute, 0:16:13.120 --> 0:16:15.600 eight hundred and nine point one, Shawn our number. Look, 0:16:15.680 --> 0:16:18.640 God forbid that moment comes and somebody breaks into your 0:16:18.720 --> 0:16:20.880 house wants to bring harm to you or your family, 0:16:21.000 --> 0:16:22.720 or they break into your business they want to bring 0:16:22.760 --> 0:16:26.120 harm to you your employees. Well that's a tough situation. 0:16:27.080 --> 0:16:30.200 If you need to defend yourself, well that's where your 0:16:30.320 --> 0:16:33.720 nightmare may begin. We are living sadly in a time 0:16:33.800 --> 0:16:37.560 where government overreaches all too real. Now it didn't involve 0:16:37.600 --> 0:16:39.200 a firearm, but you saw what they tried to do 0:16:39.320 --> 0:16:43.040 to Daniel Penny, and you have prosecutors, politicians, they want 0:16:43.120 --> 0:16:45.600 nothing more than to make an example out of law 0:16:45.680 --> 0:16:48.600 abiding gun owners, people like you and me.

It was so interesting to watch uh 0:17:44.040 --> 0:17:48.560 an anchor. He's in the middle of saying and claiming 0:17:48.840 --> 0:17:52.920 that firefighters are running out of water. Is just that 0:17:53.119 --> 0:17:57.320 that report is false in spite of everybody else reporting it, 0:17:58.119 --> 0:18:01.480 And then a ground reporter said, no, that story is true. 0:18:02.160 --> 0:18:05.120 Listen, despite what you have heard from Caruso, no firefighters 0:18:05.200 --> 0:18:07.680 have told us that they are running out of water. 0:18:08.520 --> 0:18:09.480 And let's go out here. 0:18:09.600 --> 0:18:12.359 Gigi Grassi at she is lost in the Pacific Palisades. 0:18:12.359 --> 0:18:14.000 I know your signal's not the beast, but Gigi, what 0:18:14.080 --> 0:18:14.600 can you tell us? 0:18:15.640 --> 0:18:18.560 Well, firefighters have told me they have no water on 0:18:18.720 --> 0:18:19.160 this block. 0:18:19.200 --> 0:18:20.919 And you may be able to make out the emberstorm 0:18:20.960 --> 0:18:23.080 that we're in the middle of right now. This house 0:18:23.200 --> 0:18:26.240 going to be a total loss. They have no water 0:18:26.400 --> 0:18:29.760 to put on this fire. They are standing by because 0:18:29.800 --> 0:18:32.639 they're trying to stave the home that is next to it. 0:18:32.840 --> 0:18:36.840 We are on Carrie Street. This is between Toyopa Drive 0:18:37.040 --> 0:18:40.159 and Sunset Boulevard. That home is going to be a 0:18:40.240 --> 0:18:43.680 total loss. Firefighters here telling me they have no water. 0:18:44.200 --> 0:18:45.440 Why, they don't know. 0:18:45.680 --> 0:18:48.200 They've heard that there may be broken manes, they very 0:18:48.280 --> 0:18:49.400 be broken pipes. 0:18:49.680 --> 0:18:50.280 They don't know. 0:18:50.600 --> 0:18:53.080 But what they've been doing to save the house next 0:18:53.160 --> 0:18:57.480 to it is actually putting pulling water from the swimming pool. 0:18:57.920 --> 0:19:00.320 I mean, it's just horrible. What's going on. Let's go 0:19:00.359 --> 0:19:03.439 to California. Bonnie is on the Sean Hannity Show. Bonnie, 0:19:03.480 --> 0:19:05.320 how are you. I'm so sorry about what's going on 0:19:05.440 --> 0:19:08.200 in your state and for people in LA in the 0:19:08.280 --> 0:19:08.800 South Line. 0:19:09.720 --> 0:19:12.240 Yeah, I'm in Pasadena, just a few miles from the 0:19:12.320 --> 0:19:15.720 Eaton fire, which started maybe just a few hours after 0:19:15.800 --> 0:19:22.040 the Palisades fire, and same story, no water, blocks and 0:19:22.160 --> 0:19:26.080 blocks and blocks of houses, small businesses, even you know, 0:19:26.200 --> 0:19:30.760 Bank of America businesses all burned down. No water anywhere 0:19:30.840 --> 0:19:33.920 for the firefighters. The weird thing is, I have water 0:19:34.000 --> 0:19:36.959 in my home. I can, you know, run the dishwasher, 0:19:37.160 --> 0:19:39.400 run plush the toilet, get water out of the tap, 0:19:39.520 --> 0:19:42.800 no problem. But the firefighters don't have them. I've been 0:19:42.840 --> 0:19:45.080 calling my city. I've been calling my mayor, I've been 0:19:45.119 --> 0:19:48.200 calling my city council people saying, listen, if the firefighter 0:19:48.600 --> 0:19:52.080 need water, tell everybody don't use the water and give 0:19:52.160 --> 0:19:54.760 the water to them. For five hours, six hours all day. 0:19:54.880 --> 0:19:58.680 No water, We'll give it to the firefighters. This is 0:19:58.760 --> 0:20:04.959 intentional on the water. Tens of thousands of homes had 0:20:04.960 --> 0:20:08.760 burnt down. This is a complete and utter disaster. They're 0:20:08.840 --> 0:20:11.679 not doing anything to stop the fire. It's just going 0:20:11.760 --> 0:20:14.000 to burn itself out maybe eventually. 0:20:14.600 --> 0:20:17.120 The good news, but you still have one hundred mile 0:20:17.240 --> 0:20:19.840 per hour winds, which means that this thing is going 0:20:19.920 --> 0:20:21.880 to keep, you know, expanding. 0:20:22.200 --> 0:20:26.760 No no, no, no, no no, no, Sean, Okay, it 0:20:26.920 --> 0:20:30.080 is still for the past too. Now. The other night, 0:20:30.400 --> 0:20:35.040 it was Tuesday night, terrible winds. That's another story. On Monday, 0:20:35.200 --> 0:20:40.800 January sixth, and horrific January sixth anniversary, keen trails all 0:20:40.960 --> 0:20:44.879 over in southern California, criss crossing the skies by By 0:20:45.000 --> 0:20:48.720 Monday night, there was a small haze all over the 0:20:48.800 --> 0:20:53.200 basin in southern California Tuesday and then that massive or 0:20:53.320 --> 0:20:56.640 the next day they started talking about Santa Anna wins 0:20:56.680 --> 0:20:59.280 Saniana winds. This don't happen this time of year. That's weird. 0:20:59.280 --> 0:21:03.840 I thought, that's your massive windstorms. Incredible. I've had some 0:21:04.000 --> 0:21:08.280 damage to my house, broken windows, ce bad dad. But 0:21:08.800 --> 0:21:11.040 that's when the fire started, right and it was freaky 0:21:11.119 --> 0:21:13.240 and you could see the flames from the window, and 0:21:13.320 --> 0:21:18.680 oh my god, everybody's panicking. But yesterday and today still 0:21:19.600 --> 0:21:23.160 not a breeze, not a breeze, and yet the fire 0:21:23.320 --> 0:21:26.480 is still going. They could stop this fire. There's no 0:21:26.800 --> 0:21:28.200 water to stop the fire. 0:21:28.600 --> 0:21:30.440
