He explained inflation and 14 00:00:46,080 --> 00:00:50,080 Speaker 1: we got in Inflation is mostly in food and in 15 00:00:50,120 --> 00:00:54,120 Speaker 1: gasoline at the pump. Okay, And then now you know, 16 00:00:54,880 --> 00:00:58,520 Speaker 1: please make a note of that President announced inflation is 17 00:00:58,520 --> 00:01:03,840 Speaker 1: in food and gas gas at the pump. But you're 18 00:01:03,840 --> 00:01:05,319 Speaker 1: going you don't have to go to a pump and 19 00:01:05,360 --> 00:01:07,840 Speaker 1: buy gas. There are people selling gas on the side 20 00:01:08,360 --> 00:01:10,840 Speaker 1: and they're stealing it. And that's what Alex Stone at 21 00:01:10,840 --> 00:01:13,440 Speaker 1: ABC News is coming on and I hope it's a 22 00:01:13,480 --> 00:01:15,360 Speaker 1: type of the pump. If it's not the other kind 23 00:01:15,360 --> 00:01:18,479 Speaker 1: of gas, we gotta problem. Right, Well, what's this story. 24 00:01:18,640 --> 00:01:22,200 Speaker 1: People are stealing gas in yeah, large quantities. Yeah, when 25 00:01:22,240 --> 00:01:26,120 Speaker 1: anything is expensive, people get creative and that's what they're doing. 26 00:01:26,160 --> 00:01:28,120 Speaker 1: So more and more we've heard about it in the 27 00:01:28,160 --> 00:01:31,440 Speaker 1: Inland Empire, We've heard about it in the the Houston area, 28 00:01:31,520 --> 00:01:35,400 Speaker 1: and now police in Vegas they say that they're seeing 29 00:01:35,480 --> 00:01:41,560 Speaker 1: quite the trend there of people who are modifying work trucks, vans, 30 00:01:41,720 --> 00:01:45,360 Speaker 1: whatever they can to put in big tanks, and they've 31 00:01:45,360 --> 00:01:48,760 Speaker 1: been seizing these gas stealing trucks that are go up 32 00:01:48,760 --> 00:01:50,520 Speaker 1: to the pump. They sit there for a couple of hours. 33 00:01:50,560 --> 00:01:53,639 Speaker 1: Nobody notices because people are coming in and they're leaving, 34 00:01:53,680 --> 00:01:55,480 Speaker 1: and yeah, you think the guy next to you is 35 00:01:55,520 --> 00:01:59,639 Speaker 1: just filling up his work truck, but he's manipulated the pump, 36 00:02:00,080 --> 00:02:02,600 Speaker 1: the inner workings of it. If you take off the 37 00:02:02,840 --> 00:02:05,600 Speaker 1: cover of it and know what to do to give 38 00:02:05,640 --> 00:02:08,040 Speaker 1: you gas, and then they fill up the big tanks 39 00:02:08,360 --> 00:02:11,560 Speaker 1: inside of there. And the cops in Vegas they're saying 40 00:02:11,800 --> 00:02:14,040 Speaker 1: this is a real problem. Now. Some stations have been 41 00:02:14,160 --> 00:02:16,920 Speaker 1: hit for thousands of gallons and they'll continue to go 42 00:02:16,960 --> 00:02:20,079 Speaker 1: back until the tank is drained. That's thousands of dollars 43 00:02:20,080 --> 00:02:23,600 Speaker 1: in losses for these gas stations, and sometimes it almost 44 00:02:23,680 --> 00:02:25,639 Speaker 1: gets to the point where it puts them out of business. Yeah, 45 00:02:25,680 --> 00:02:27,600 Speaker 1: I mean, it's so bad that it actually puts a 46 00:02:27,639 --> 00:02:29,480 Speaker 1: gas station out of business. And they say that they've 47 00:02:29,480 --> 00:02:31,280 Speaker 1: seen So this began a couple of months ago. I 48 00:02:31,280 --> 00:02:33,520 Speaker 1: remember we talked about it where there was a van 49 00:02:33,639 --> 00:02:37,040 Speaker 1: going around I believe Houston, and they had a nozzle 50 00:02:37,080 --> 00:02:40,440 Speaker 1: that would come out kind of like a firefighting helicopter 51 00:02:40,480 --> 00:02:43,480 Speaker 1: where you see the nozzle come down underneath and suck 52 00:02:43,560 --> 00:02:46,240 Speaker 1: up water while they would put it into the opening 53 00:02:46,240 --> 00:02:49,239 Speaker 1: to the tanks on the ground of the gas stations, 54 00:02:49,520 --> 00:02:52,320 Speaker 1: open it up, put that nozzle down in, suck up 55 00:02:52,320 --> 00:02:54,160 Speaker 1: the gas, and then they were out of there. They 56 00:02:54,160 --> 00:02:57,640 Speaker 1: had a trapdoor. What these guys are doing is actually 57 00:02:57,680 --> 00:03:00,760 Speaker 1: going to the pump like they're filling up, and but 58 00:03:00,840 --> 00:03:04,079 Speaker 1: the gas is not being charged to them and it's 59 00:03:04,120 --> 00:03:07,240 Speaker 1: going right into the tanks and then they drive off 60 00:03:07,320 --> 00:03:10,000 Speaker 1: and they may have ten grand worth of gas in 61 00:03:10,040 --> 00:03:12,200 Speaker 1: there that then is going to the black market. These 62 00:03:12,240 --> 00:03:15,120 Speaker 1: themes are very sophisticated, and they'll take a truck that 63 00:03:15,200 --> 00:03:17,040 Speaker 1: looks like just a normal truck or like a freeway 64 00:03:17,080 --> 00:03:20,600 Speaker 1: service truck, and there's intricate piping inside them. Now, the 65 00:03:20,639 --> 00:03:23,480 Speaker 1: other part of this John is that even the gas 66 00:03:23,480 --> 00:03:26,600 Speaker 1: station workers don't know that unless they notice that somebody's 67 00:03:26,639 --> 00:03:29,240 Speaker 1: been sitting out there for a really long time. That 68 00:03:29,360 --> 00:03:33,040 Speaker 1: they don't necessarily know for a few days that they've 69 00:03:33,080 --> 00:03:35,440 Speaker 1: had a bunch of gas stolen from them, that their 70 00:03:35,520 --> 00:03:38,120 Speaker 1: tanks are lower than the amount of money that they 71 00:03:38,400 --> 00:03:41,200 Speaker 1: should have out there, and that's why they don't know immediately. 72 00:03:41,280 --> 00:03:44,280 Speaker 1: Then they go back, they see it on the surveillance cameras, 73 00:03:44,280 --> 00:03:46,320 Speaker 1: and now Vegas is seeing that seizing the trucks that 74 00:03:46,360 --> 00:03:48,200 Speaker 1: they're able to track down. The owners don't even know 75 00:03:48,440 --> 00:03:50,280 Speaker 1: for up two weeks or months when they do gas 76 00:03:50,320 --> 00:03:53,360 Speaker 1: on it. So'll open up the gas pump itself, and 77 00:03:53,520 --> 00:03:56,400 Speaker 1: there's a series of gears inside there, and they're smart 78 00:03:56,480 --> 00:03:59,080 Speaker 1: enough to figure out how to manipulate the gears. Yeah, 79 00:03:59,160 --> 00:04:01,240 Speaker 1: mess with the gears and then out comes a gas 80 00:04:01,240 --> 00:04:03,800 Speaker 1: So they're driving up, stealing it, driving out. Nobody knows, 81 00:04:03,880 --> 00:04:06,240 Speaker 1: so they're from Vegas as that they're dealing with a lot. 82 00:04:06,240 --> 00:04:11,560 Speaker 1: Now they're opening up the pump, but yeah, a plain sight. Yeah, 83 00:04:11,600 --> 00:04:15,120 Speaker 1: And they do that part of it very quickly, where 84 00:04:15,320 --> 00:04:17,760 Speaker 1: whether it's a key or whatever, they need to get 85 00:04:17,800 --> 00:04:20,720 Speaker 1: the cover off of it, and then then they go 86 00:04:20,760 --> 00:04:23,960 Speaker 1: to work with whatever they do inside of there, put 87 00:04:23,960 --> 00:04:25,880 Speaker 1: the cover back on, and then it just looks like 88 00:04:25,920 --> 00:04:29,400 Speaker 1: they're filling up. And so they do that part really fast, 89 00:04:29,560 --> 00:04:32,440 Speaker 1: and that's why police and Vegas are saying, if you 90 00:04:32,480 --> 00:04:36,800 Speaker 1: see somebody who one is messing with the pump at all, 91 00:04:37,200 --> 00:04:39,400 Speaker 1: and you know they've got those seals on them, that 92 00:04:39,680 --> 00:04:42,200 Speaker 1: if you see that that's been ripped open, but if 93 00:04:42,240 --> 00:04:44,200 Speaker 1: you see somebody trying to take the cover off of it, 94 00:04:44,279 --> 00:04:46,680 Speaker 1: that is a sign that they're trying to manipulate that 95 00:04:46,760 --> 00:04:49,120 Speaker 1: pump and get something out of it. If you see 96 00:04:49,160 --> 00:04:51,839 Speaker 1: somebody who's been sitting there for an incredible amount of 97 00:04:51,839 --> 00:04:54,920 Speaker 1: time because they're using the regular nozzle and get thousands 98 00:04:54,960 --> 00:04:57,000 Speaker 1: of gallons at one time, it's going to take a while. 99 00:04:57,120 --> 00:04:59,200 Speaker 1: Most people when they fill up, they're only there for 100 00:04:59,240 --> 00:05:01,320 Speaker 1: five six Then they don't think about it. You're talking 101 00:05:01,360 --> 00:05:04,279 Speaker 1: on the phone, you're texting, you're not looking at the 102 00:05:04,279 --> 00:05:06,760 Speaker 1: guy over there. So nobody so he's not using a 103 00:05:06,800 --> 00:05:10,159 Speaker 1: credit card. No. In some cases to get it going, 104 00:05:10,640 --> 00:05:13,480 Speaker 1: they say that they may use like a gift card 105 00:05:13,600 --> 00:05:18,720 Speaker 1: or a debit card, but it doesn't charge thousands of 106 00:05:18,800 --> 00:05:21,000 Speaker 1: gallons on it, and they may spend twenty bucks and 107 00:05:21,040 --> 00:05:23,880 Speaker 1: that that gets the pump going and then they manipulate 108 00:05:23,920 --> 00:05:27,240 Speaker 1: it in another way to keep it going. But others, 109 00:05:27,240 --> 00:05:29,320 Speaker 1: whatever they can do when they open it up that 110 00:05:29,600 --> 00:05:32,679 Speaker 1: makes it start flowing gas in Vegas, they say that 111 00:05:32,480 --> 00:05:34,839 Speaker 1: that's what they're doing. Do you know if they're making 112 00:05:34,880 --> 00:05:40,280 Speaker 1: any arrests. They haven't had any arrests. They yeah, they 113 00:05:40,279 --> 00:05:43,040 Speaker 1: say they're investigating it right now because it's probably security 114 00:05:43,080 --> 00:05:45,320 Speaker 1: cameras in a lot of these cases. But yeah, but 115 00:05:45,520 --> 00:05:47,880 Speaker 1: I mean, they look like any work truck out there, 116 00:05:47,920 --> 00:05:51,040 Speaker 1: and then unless you've got a really high def camera 117 00:05:51,080 --> 00:05:53,440 Speaker 1: where you get the license plate on it. But they 118 00:05:53,440 --> 00:05:55,320 Speaker 1: do have some of the vehicles now, so they are 119 00:05:55,360 --> 00:05:58,600 Speaker 1: going down that road and they do know what they 120 00:05:58,640 --> 00:06:00,320 Speaker 1: look like on the inside. They know what a lot 121 00:06:00,360 --> 00:06:02,120 Speaker 1: of these look like. And then they had that one 122 00:06:02,200 --> 00:06:04,320 Speaker 1: and Houston of the van and they were able to 123 00:06:04,360 --> 00:06:06,599 Speaker 1: track that one down with the nozzle that would come out. 124 00:06:07,040 --> 00:06:09,640 Speaker 1: So it's cat and mouse, But it's like anything when 125 00:06:09,880 --> 00:06:13,120 Speaker 1: something gets expensive as it is right now, and today 126 00:06:13,680 --> 00:06:16,440 Speaker 1: the US hit a all time record five bucks a 127 00:06:16,440 --> 00:06:19,240 Speaker 1: gallon for regular unleaded the data from gas Buddy, it 128 00:06:19,240 --> 00:06:23,160 Speaker 1: seems like super cheap price in California everywhere else, five 129 00:06:23,160 --> 00:06:24,919 Speaker 1: bucks a gallon is a big deal if you're not 130 00:06:24,960 --> 00:06:28,839 Speaker 1: in California yet. Is getting close to six fifty, isn't it? Yeah, 131 00:06:28,839 --> 00:06:32,480 Speaker 1: we're at six forty today and going up. But oil 132 00:06:33,040 --> 00:06:35,119 Speaker 1: is it one hundred twenty one bucks a barrel again? 133 00:06:35,360 --> 00:06:38,600 Speaker 1: And there's some analysts we've been talking to they believe, 134 00:06:39,080 --> 00:06:41,520 Speaker 1: based on the demand of all of us wanting to 135 00:06:41,520 --> 00:06:45,560 Speaker 1: get out and travel, of China lifting their pandemic rules 136 00:06:45,560 --> 00:06:48,320 Speaker 1: and they want to get out and travel of the 137 00:06:48,520 --> 00:06:52,279 Speaker 1: uncertainty in Ukraine and Russia, new uncertainty in Iran and 138 00:06:52,360 --> 00:06:55,440 Speaker 1: what they're doing, that we may be on the verge 139 00:06:55,760 --> 00:06:58,440 Speaker 1: of an oil price spike to one hundred and sixty 140 00:06:58,520 --> 00:07:01,760 Speaker 1: dollars a barrel one six zero. That would be that 141 00:07:01,760 --> 00:07:03,719 Speaker 1: would be bad. We'd be looking at probably another two 142 00:07:03,800 --> 00:07:05,960 Speaker 1: three bucks a gallon if that were to go on. 143 00:07:06,040 --> 00:07:09,920 Speaker 1: So really, yeah, hopefully it doesn't, but we'd be paying 144 00:07:10,040 --> 00:07:13,480 Speaker 1: we'd be paying eight nine Yeah, potentially if it were 145 00:07:13,520 --> 00:07:16,600 Speaker 1: to go up that high. And doesn't it feel like 146 00:07:16,840 --> 00:07:20,240 Speaker 1: in California that there was some anger when the prices 147 00:07:20,280 --> 00:07:22,480 Speaker 1: were going up real quickly a couple of months ago, 148 00:07:23,120 --> 00:07:24,720 Speaker 1: But you don't hear a lot about it now, And 149 00:07:24,760 --> 00:07:27,440 Speaker 1: because just kind of shrug it off. Terrible thing about 150 00:07:27,520 --> 00:07:30,640 Speaker 1: human nature. People get bus gallon in some areas, You 151 00:07:30,680 --> 00:07:33,360 Speaker 1: fill up and you're not complaining any any kind of abuse. 152 00:07:33,840 --> 00:07:36,520 Speaker 1: People get used to. Yeah, and still you got the 153 00:07:36,560 --> 00:07:40,280 Speaker 1: number of Republicans trying to get the gas tax taken down. 154 00:07:40,320 --> 00:07:45,440 Speaker 1: But Newsom will not repeal the gas tax in any way. 155 00:07:45,680 --> 00:07:47,920 Speaker 1: And he got sixty percent of the vote the other 156 00:07:48,000 --> 00:07:50,280 Speaker 1: day in the primary. Yeah, Democrats don't seem to have 157 00:07:50,280 --> 00:07:52,320 Speaker 1: the appetite to do that. Well, here, listen to this 158 00:07:52,320 --> 00:07:55,240 Speaker 1: guy filling up in LA. This is the most ridiculous 159 00:07:55,320 --> 00:07:57,840 Speaker 1: thing that I have ever seen in twenty one years 160 00:07:57,880 --> 00:08:00,000 Speaker 1: of living in Los Angeles. And man, he's lived in 161 00:08:00,080 --> 00:08:02,200 Speaker 1: LA for twenty one years. He seemed some weird stuff. 162 00:08:02,240 --> 00:08:04,600 Speaker 1: But but eight bucks a gallon, I mean, it's nuts. 163 00:08:04,640 --> 00:08:06,760 Speaker 1: I went up with a couple of buddies to Namath 164 00:08:06,840 --> 00:08:08,880 Speaker 1: for a long weekend to go fishing. That last weekend 165 00:08:08,920 --> 00:08:11,000 Speaker 1: we filled up probably four or five times, big pick up. 166 00:08:11,200 --> 00:08:13,320 Speaker 1: It was two hundred bucks every fill up, and you go. 167 00:08:14,320 --> 00:08:16,440 Speaker 1: You know, it's no longer cheap to jump in the 168 00:08:16,480 --> 00:08:19,760 Speaker 1: car and drive anywhere. It's like buying airline tickets. When 169 00:08:19,800 --> 00:08:24,560 Speaker 1: you're paying that airline tickets. Yeah. Oh, because we were 170 00:08:24,560 --> 00:08:26,120 Speaker 1: going to go to Florida, and we are going to 171 00:08:26,160 --> 00:08:28,560 Speaker 1: go to Florida later the summer, and usually from here 172 00:08:28,600 --> 00:08:31,920 Speaker 1: to Tampa was three hundred dollars and it's six fifty 173 00:08:32,120 --> 00:08:34,400 Speaker 1: more than nuts. I'm going to Spokane next week and 174 00:08:34,480 --> 00:08:36,280 Speaker 1: that family of four and we're spending like thirty five 175 00:08:36,400 --> 00:08:38,600 Speaker 1: hundred bucks. I would much rather go to Hawaii or 176 00:08:38,840 --> 00:08:42,320 Speaker 1: we got to go to a family. Well, right now, 177 00:08:42,320 --> 00:08:44,440 Speaker 1: you know how to live summer and spoke. I'm like 178 00:08:44,480 --> 00:08:47,439 Speaker 1: a vacation spoken all right, very good, Alex. They got 179 00:08:47,480 --> 00:08:53,520 Speaker 1: it later John Alextone, ABC News headed for Spokane. I'm no, 180 00:08:53,600 --> 00:08:56,560 Speaker 1: I couldn't believe going getting six fifty. It's crazy to 181 00:08:56,600 --> 00:08:59,559 Speaker 1: go to Tampa. Um oh. And and you know what 182 00:08:59,720 --> 00:09:01,480 Speaker 1: I I was. I was so happy because you're in 183 00:09:01,480 --> 00:09:04,040 Speaker 1: the pandemic. We didn't travel right, and I put all 184 00:09:04,040 --> 00:09:06,240 Speaker 1: our charges on this credit card, which gives me lots 185 00:09:06,240 --> 00:09:09,040 Speaker 1: of airline miles. So I'm piling up lots and lots 186 00:09:09,040 --> 00:09:12,920 Speaker 1: of airline miles. And now it's time to travel. And 187 00:09:13,120 --> 00:09:15,959 Speaker 1: because the price of the flights are double what they 188 00:09:16,040 --> 00:09:18,360 Speaker 1: used to be, they want more than double the miles. Yes, 189 00:09:18,679 --> 00:09:22,400 Speaker 1: how frustrating is that they're dealing with that as well. 190 00:09:22,520 --> 00:09:25,920 Speaker 1: It's ridiculous. You can't you can't do anything meaningful with 191 00:09:25,960 --> 00:09:30,160 Speaker 1: the miles. I'm gonna I'm just gonna sit on them, 192 00:09:30,559 --> 00:09:33,520 Speaker 1: wait to see if the prices go down. Someday it's 193 00:09:33,520 --> 00:09:36,040 Speaker 1: going to happen. I don't know either going up. But 194 00:09:36,400 --> 00:09:40,400 Speaker 1: you know what did Biden says? The costing inflation. You knows, 195 00:09:42,040 --> 00:09:48,200 Speaker 1: radelation is mostly in food and in gasoline. Okay, pump, 196 00:09:48,520 --> 00:09:52,959 Speaker 1: but he's blaming oh yeah, he's blaming pot Yeah right, 197 00:09:53,240 --> 00:09:56,400 Speaker 1: everybody else and the greedy oil companies all that. John 198 00:09:56,440 --> 00:09:58,720 Speaker 1: and Kent show k FID coming up after five o'clock, 199 00:09:58,720 --> 00:10:02,480 Speaker 1: we're gonna have Todd Spitzer on the Orange County District 200 00:10:02,520 --> 00:10:06,960 Speaker 1: Attorney who won his race against a gas cone clone 201 00:10:07,600 --> 00:10:11,120 Speaker 1: by about a three to one margin. And Todd made 202 00:10:11,120 --> 00:10:14,440 Speaker 1: it clear that he was running against the gascon in 203 00:10:14,480 --> 00:10:17,719 Speaker 1: a way because his opponent was from the gascone the 204 00:10:17,800 --> 00:10:23,199 Speaker 1: world and had similar policies, and Orange County voters said, no, 205 00:10:23,800 --> 00:10:27,040 Speaker 1: we are not becoming La And that was the that 206 00:10:27,160 --> 00:10:30,360 Speaker 1: was the theme of Spitzer's campaign, that we're not going 207 00:10:30,440 --> 00:10:34,120 Speaker 1: to turn into Los Angeles and all this crime and 208 00:10:34,440 --> 00:10:38,920 Speaker 1: homelessness and dysfunction and disgusting things going on. So we'll 209 00:10:38,920 --> 00:10:41,120 Speaker 1: talk to Todd coming up, because he deserved a big 210 00:10:41,120 --> 00:10:48,560 Speaker 1: win and he got it all right. So that feeble 211 00:10:48,559 --> 00:10:50,719 Speaker 1: old man in the White House, Joe Biden, went on 212 00:10:50,760 --> 00:10:53,400 Speaker 1: Jimmy Kimmel last night. We've been playing this clip over 213 00:10:53,480 --> 00:10:56,320 Speaker 1: and over again for an hour because he explained to 214 00:10:56,400 --> 00:10:58,920 Speaker 1: Kimmel that the inflation, well, it's better in his words, 215 00:10:58,960 --> 00:11:04,120 Speaker 1: this inflation is most sland food and in gasoline at 216 00:11:04,120 --> 00:11:07,400 Speaker 1: the pump. Yeah, gas lead at the pump, right, not 217 00:11:07,520 --> 00:11:12,000 Speaker 1: the gasoline. But there's an article in the Wall Street 218 00:11:12,080 --> 00:11:16,840 Speaker 1: Journal which explains why it the inflation doesn't confine itself 219 00:11:16,840 --> 00:11:20,560 Speaker 1: to the gas coming out of the pump, because everything, 220 00:11:20,840 --> 00:11:24,720 Speaker 1: every solid thing that you touch in life, has to 221 00:11:24,760 --> 00:11:30,560 Speaker 1: be transported with fuel. And Deber and I were just 222 00:11:30,600 --> 00:11:36,080 Speaker 1: talking about the absurd fuel well, the absurd airline prices 223 00:11:36,160 --> 00:11:39,040 Speaker 1: which come from the fuel increases, and we want to 224 00:11:39,040 --> 00:11:41,240 Speaker 1: go to Florida later this summer, and what was a 225 00:11:41,320 --> 00:11:44,880 Speaker 1: three hundred dollars round trip flight before the pandemic. Right, 226 00:11:45,360 --> 00:11:49,559 Speaker 1: And we've been going to Florida for long time, many years, 227 00:11:50,040 --> 00:11:53,840 Speaker 1: because my wife's family used to live there. And it 228 00:11:53,960 --> 00:11:58,280 Speaker 1: says here the average flight, the average airline flight is 229 00:11:58,400 --> 00:12:02,800 Speaker 1: up thirty three scent from last year, thirty three percent, 230 00:12:04,640 --> 00:12:09,240 Speaker 1: and like this flight we're taking is up over fifty percent. 231 00:12:11,440 --> 00:12:15,600 Speaker 1: Just between March and April, airline fares rose nineteen percent. 232 00:12:18,120 --> 00:12:20,240 Speaker 1: I mean you, if you if you're going to go somewhere, 233 00:12:20,280 --> 00:12:23,920 Speaker 1: you better buy your ticket now because the jet fuel 234 00:12:23,960 --> 00:12:28,160 Speaker 1: prices are going up just as quickly as regular gasoline 235 00:12:28,160 --> 00:12:30,240 Speaker 1: and diesel fuel. You know it stinks though, if you 236 00:12:30,320 --> 00:12:35,240 Speaker 1: bought an airline ticket, say a year ago, with miles, right, 237 00:12:35,559 --> 00:12:38,680 Speaker 1: and because of the pandemic, you aren't you weren't able 238 00:12:38,720 --> 00:12:42,959 Speaker 1: to go, and you're trying to make changes now you 239 00:12:43,040 --> 00:12:44,640 Speaker 1: just say you decide not to go. You're trying to 240 00:12:44,640 --> 00:12:48,560 Speaker 1: make changes now because of the increases in ticket prices. 241 00:12:49,480 --> 00:12:52,319 Speaker 1: The miles that you have to use are so many 242 00:12:52,360 --> 00:12:55,720 Speaker 1: more miles, and you get you get all these ridiculous 243 00:12:55,920 --> 00:12:59,760 Speaker 1: charges to change things. It's so crazy. I mean, it 244 00:12:59,880 --> 00:13:04,400 Speaker 1: is so expensive. The airlines are abusive with the miles. Yes, 245 00:13:04,520 --> 00:13:06,800 Speaker 1: I was setting up something for my son. He's taken 246 00:13:06,840 --> 00:13:09,240 Speaker 1: a trip this summer and we kind of have a 247 00:13:09,320 --> 00:13:13,080 Speaker 1: family collection of miles, right, So I said, let me 248 00:13:13,160 --> 00:13:15,520 Speaker 1: let me buy the ticket because I can attach these 249 00:13:15,520 --> 00:13:19,520 Speaker 1: miles to it from my wife's account. And so I 250 00:13:19,559 --> 00:13:23,719 Speaker 1: did it for him, and then he called me back 251 00:13:23,720 --> 00:13:25,679 Speaker 1: and he said, wow, a couple of weeks, said can 252 00:13:25,679 --> 00:13:29,360 Speaker 1: we can we move it by one day? You know what? 253 00:13:29,840 --> 00:13:33,400 Speaker 1: It doubled the amount of miles just to change it, 254 00:13:33,520 --> 00:13:37,079 Speaker 1: just to change it, which makes absolutely no sense. We 255 00:13:37,160 --> 00:13:40,720 Speaker 1: went through that exact same thing. We're changing our trip 256 00:13:40,760 --> 00:13:43,480 Speaker 1: because of the pandemic. We can't go somewhere because it's 257 00:13:43,520 --> 00:13:46,160 Speaker 1: not open. No. I called him back and I said, 258 00:13:46,280 --> 00:13:49,520 Speaker 1: I'm not paying double the miles for this. You know 259 00:13:49,720 --> 00:13:51,840 Speaker 1: you got to you gotta figure that out one day. 260 00:13:52,280 --> 00:13:54,199 Speaker 1: One day. Yeah, leave it on a Thursday instead of 261 00:13:54,240 --> 00:13:56,760 Speaker 1: a Wednesday or something like that. I know, same flight, 262 00:13:57,080 --> 00:14:04,000 Speaker 1: same change. Yeah, No, it's it's it's just fearating. Um So, anyway, 263 00:14:04,040 --> 00:14:09,439 Speaker 1: The Wall Street Journal says the prices of everything are 264 00:14:09,559 --> 00:14:13,560 Speaker 1: now going crazy. For example, the company that makes oreo 265 00:14:13,679 --> 00:14:18,480 Speaker 1: Cookies says it's they call it input costs or up 266 00:14:18,520 --> 00:14:22,560 Speaker 1: ten to thirteen percent this year, driven mainly by energy prices. 267 00:14:23,600 --> 00:14:26,440 Speaker 1: That adds to the cost to the transportation of the oreos. 268 00:14:26,560 --> 00:14:29,640 Speaker 1: But you also have to transport the ingredients to the 269 00:14:29,640 --> 00:14:33,200 Speaker 1: oreo factory, and you have to transport the packaging to 270 00:14:33,240 --> 00:14:38,800 Speaker 1: the oreo factory. So are my oreos going up? Oh? Yeah, Oh, 271 00:14:38,960 --> 00:14:41,320 Speaker 1: don't tell me this. Yeah. And the other story I 272 00:14:41,320 --> 00:14:43,760 Speaker 1: found the other day is they're shrinking all the packaging 273 00:14:43,800 --> 00:14:45,840 Speaker 1: now yep, yep, yeah. You know, like you get a 274 00:14:45,840 --> 00:14:48,720 Speaker 1: bottle of gatorade, there's like two ounces missing now, and 275 00:14:48,800 --> 00:14:51,880 Speaker 1: you know what in bags of chips right there were 276 00:14:51,880 --> 00:14:54,040 Speaker 1: it was never full to begin with. Can you imagine 277 00:14:54,040 --> 00:14:56,640 Speaker 1: you're enough two chips now in a bag? Did? I 278 00:14:56,680 --> 00:14:59,480 Speaker 1: did just get some double stuffed oreos from the store, 279 00:15:00,000 --> 00:15:03,640 Speaker 1: and the double stuffed was a little bit skimpier than Oh, 280 00:15:03,680 --> 00:15:06,560 Speaker 1: it's probably a stuff and a half yeah, exactly, Yeah, 281 00:15:07,120 --> 00:15:14,720 Speaker 1: you're a half of stuff short. So they trucking companies 282 00:15:15,480 --> 00:15:21,800 Speaker 1: have huge diesel price increases, which is also going to 283 00:15:22,160 --> 00:15:25,359 Speaker 1: because of the shipping costs. They figure construction and construction 284 00:15:25,400 --> 00:15:29,640 Speaker 1: projects are going to be pushed off. People companies are 285 00:15:29,640 --> 00:15:34,520 Speaker 1: going to stop restocking so much at their stores because 286 00:15:34,520 --> 00:15:39,800 Speaker 1: they simply can't or won't pay the price, and there's 287 00:15:39,960 --> 00:15:42,720 Speaker 1: nothing anybody can do about it. It It looks like we 288 00:15:42,800 --> 00:15:50,320 Speaker 1: have a completely feeble, inept government that has no solution. 289 00:15:51,480 --> 00:15:56,600 Speaker 1: They denied inflation for a year. Economic experts told the 290 00:15:56,640 --> 00:16:01,280 Speaker 1: Biden crowd, don't print two trillion dollars and just hand 291 00:16:01,320 --> 00:16:06,080 Speaker 1: it out under COVID financing two trillion, And they said, 292 00:16:06,120 --> 00:16:09,120 Speaker 1: you do that, it's going to create inflation. No, no, no, 293 00:16:09,200 --> 00:16:12,480 Speaker 1: you know, not a joke, not a joke. And then 294 00:16:12,560 --> 00:16:15,120 Speaker 1: the inflations started going up, and they said, well, it's 295 00:16:15,160 --> 00:16:19,080 Speaker 1: a high class problem to have. And then they said, oh, 296 00:16:19,080 --> 00:16:23,880 Speaker 1: it's just transitory, it's nothing. Well, and you can't be misled. 297 00:16:23,920 --> 00:16:26,160 Speaker 1: There's some number coming out tomorrow morning. Right, it's going 298 00:16:26,240 --> 00:16:31,520 Speaker 1: to be the monthly inflation increase for May. Right, yeah, 299 00:16:31,600 --> 00:16:35,480 Speaker 1: for me. And it doesn't really paint the picture though, 300 00:16:36,040 --> 00:16:38,640 Speaker 1: because it includes a lot of stuff that maybe you 301 00:16:38,680 --> 00:16:42,640 Speaker 1: don't buy or you only buy very occasionally in life, 302 00:16:43,920 --> 00:16:47,400 Speaker 1: like used cars. For example. Now many times in a 303 00:16:47,480 --> 00:16:50,280 Speaker 1: decade do you buy a used car? Maybe once, maybe never, 304 00:16:51,640 --> 00:16:57,040 Speaker 1: But that's included what's going up way higher than eight 305 00:16:57,080 --> 00:17:01,200 Speaker 1: percent is the gas prices, I mean eight percent going 306 00:17:01,320 --> 00:17:03,600 Speaker 1: up in a month for gas prices, that's an easy month. 307 00:17:05,320 --> 00:17:10,240 Speaker 1: It's going up well more than that. Every single ingredient 308 00:17:10,600 --> 00:17:14,320 Speaker 1: in a product, every part in a product, costs more. 309 00:17:14,680 --> 00:17:18,120 Speaker 1: So by the time you've built a car or you've 310 00:17:18,160 --> 00:17:21,679 Speaker 1: built a double stuffed oreo, you have more than an 311 00:17:21,720 --> 00:17:23,919 Speaker 1: eight percent increase in the in the price of the oreo. 312 00:17:25,000 --> 00:17:27,960 Speaker 1: All right, more coming up. John and Ken showed Todd Spitzer, 313 00:17:28,359 --> 00:17:34,240 Speaker 1: Orange County DA. He's going to be the district attorney 314 00:17:34,240 --> 00:17:36,200 Speaker 1: again for another four years and he's not going to 315 00:17:36,280 --> 00:17:39,480 Speaker 1: need a runoff because he blew away as opponent in 316 00:17:39,520 --> 00:17:42,080 Speaker 1: Orange County by at least a three to one margin, 317 00:17:42,640 --> 00:17:46,560 Speaker 1: and we're going to talk to him. He basically ran 318 00:17:46,600 --> 00:17:51,359 Speaker 1: against Gascone because his opponent was a Gascone acolyte, and 319 00:17:51,640 --> 00:17:54,280 Speaker 1: his campaign was about how he's not going to let 320 00:17:54,280 --> 00:17:58,560 Speaker 1: Orange County become LA. And people in Orange County, who 321 00:17:58,600 --> 00:18:01,600 Speaker 1: are you know, they don't don't have much Orange County 322 00:18:01,640 --> 00:18:04,840 Speaker 1: only media, so all they see is LA media. Right, 323 00:18:04,880 --> 00:18:08,479 Speaker 1: There's not much coverage of news in Orange County compared 324 00:18:08,520 --> 00:18:10,640 Speaker 1: to LA. So what have they seen? They have seen 325 00:18:11,520 --> 00:18:16,919 Speaker 1: all kinds of insane mayhem, the homeless people, the drug addicts, 326 00:18:16,920 --> 00:18:19,920 Speaker 1: the mental patients to crime, the smash and grabs, the murders, 327 00:18:21,080 --> 00:18:24,879 Speaker 1: the garbage and all the rest, all the corruption. And 328 00:18:24,920 --> 00:18:28,000 Speaker 1: they said Todd says, not going to happen here, and 329 00:18:28,119 --> 00:18:32,399 Speaker 1: he got a big, big win. It was overshadowed because 330 00:18:32,440 --> 00:18:38,359 Speaker 1: of goofs like of Chess of Bodine getting kicked out 331 00:18:38,400 --> 00:18:41,639 Speaker 1: in San Francisco, and that should get a lot of 332 00:18:41,640 --> 00:18:44,520 Speaker 1: attention because he was very destructive to San Francisco. But 333 00:18:44,920 --> 00:18:48,040 Speaker 1: Todd's one of the good guys. And you know, I'm 334 00:18:48,040 --> 00:18:50,840 Speaker 1: hoping that Caruso beats Karen Bass and we can get 335 00:18:50,960 --> 00:18:55,760 Speaker 1: LA back on track come November. We have been We 336 00:18:55,840 --> 00:18:57,880 Speaker 1: started out in the hour, early in the hour, at 337 00:18:57,920 --> 00:19:00,280 Speaker 1: four o'clock, we had Alex Stone on from ABC News 338 00:19:00,680 --> 00:19:04,120 Speaker 1: and he was explaining how the gas inflation has caused 339 00:19:04,200 --> 00:19:11,159 Speaker 1: now these criminal groups to suck out enormous amounts of 340 00:19:11,240 --> 00:19:14,639 Speaker 1: gas from underground tanks. They show up in front of 341 00:19:14,640 --> 00:19:19,680 Speaker 1: the pump, they stick some kind of nozzle into the 342 00:19:19,720 --> 00:19:23,720 Speaker 1: gas the underground gas tank below, or they rig the 343 00:19:24,600 --> 00:19:27,600 Speaker 1: pump itself. They just get out their tools and they 344 00:19:28,040 --> 00:19:33,000 Speaker 1: spend some dials, stick the gas pump into the nozzle 345 00:19:33,680 --> 00:19:37,000 Speaker 1: and the gas pump nozzle into the truck tank, and 346 00:19:37,040 --> 00:19:39,760 Speaker 1: they steal hundreds of gallons that way, no charge, and 347 00:19:39,800 --> 00:19:42,640 Speaker 1: it's putting some gas stations almost immediately out of business. 348 00:19:44,640 --> 00:19:47,560 Speaker 1: We've been playing clips of Biden on Jimmy Kimmel last night, 349 00:19:47,600 --> 00:19:52,720 Speaker 1: and is clueless, bumbling about inflation and one thing that 350 00:19:52,920 --> 00:19:55,560 Speaker 1: is so fascinating about people in public life. And I 351 00:19:55,640 --> 00:19:59,320 Speaker 1: noticed this with Chessi Bodine the other night. He insisted 352 00:19:59,400 --> 00:20:02,760 Speaker 1: that even though he's getting recalled sixty to forty, he's 353 00:20:02,840 --> 00:20:05,720 Speaker 1: right and everybody else is wrong and it's all a 354 00:20:05,760 --> 00:20:09,360 Speaker 1: plot against him, a right wing plot. And Biden last night, 355 00:20:09,680 --> 00:20:14,760 Speaker 1: pressed by Jimmy Kimmel of all people, same tactics, you know, 356 00:20:14,920 --> 00:20:19,480 Speaker 1: taking shots at Trump and denying the reality. You know, 357 00:20:19,520 --> 00:20:22,679 Speaker 1: the reality in San Francisco with Bodin is crime is 358 00:20:22,880 --> 00:20:27,640 Speaker 1: unbearably awful. It seems everybody's had their car broken into. 359 00:20:27,960 --> 00:20:31,720 Speaker 1: And the problem with Biden is, you know, he ignited 360 00:20:31,720 --> 00:20:35,080 Speaker 1: this with his two trillion dollars COVID package of free 361 00:20:35,119 --> 00:20:39,800 Speaker 1: printed money and everything built from that, and he's blaming everybody. 362 00:20:39,840 --> 00:20:43,200 Speaker 1: I was blaming Trump, blaming Pooten, blaming the oil companies, everybody. 363 00:20:43,200 --> 00:20:45,960 Speaker 1: It's always with these guys everybody else, and people aren't 364 00:20:45,960 --> 00:20:49,399 Speaker 1: buying it. I mean, Bodine got clock sixty to forty. 365 00:20:49,440 --> 00:20:53,280 Speaker 1: Biden's approval numbers down to thirty three percent, and I 366 00:20:53,320 --> 00:20:55,840 Speaker 1: think that's probably even not real. But I want to 367 00:20:55,880 --> 00:20:57,879 Speaker 1: play you the beginning of one of the clips on 368 00:20:57,960 --> 00:21:01,680 Speaker 1: Jimmy Kimmel again and then read to you. Read to 369 00:21:01,720 --> 00:21:04,520 Speaker 1: you what he says, his impression of the economy is, 370 00:21:04,880 --> 00:21:07,719 Speaker 1: and what normal people say. So play the beginning of 371 00:21:07,720 --> 00:21:10,760 Speaker 1: that cut. Here's where we are. We have the fastest 372 00:21:10,760 --> 00:21:15,480 Speaker 1: growing economy in the world, the world, the world. We 373 00:21:15,600 --> 00:21:18,040 Speaker 1: have eight point six million new jobs. Just since I 374 00:21:18,119 --> 00:21:21,480 Speaker 1: got an office, Unemployment race down to three point six percent. 375 00:21:21,840 --> 00:21:24,240 Speaker 1: We've reduced the deficit last year by three hundred and 376 00:21:24,280 --> 00:21:26,360 Speaker 1: twenty billion dollars this year, going to reduce it by 377 00:21:26,560 --> 00:21:30,160 Speaker 1: one point seven trillions. Okay, stop there, stop there, stop there. 378 00:21:32,520 --> 00:21:36,560 Speaker 1: George Mason University did a poll with the Washington Post 379 00:21:37,440 --> 00:21:41,119 Speaker 1: and they serve it a thousand people. He's talking about 380 00:21:41,160 --> 00:21:46,680 Speaker 1: this big, beautiful economy. Eighty three percent of Americans think 381 00:21:46,720 --> 00:21:50,720 Speaker 1: the state of the economy is poor or not so good. 382 00:21:51,840 --> 00:21:57,960 Speaker 1: Eighty three percent poor or not so good. Thirty five 383 00:21:58,040 --> 00:22:03,440 Speaker 1: percent said weren't satisfied at all with their personal financial situation. 384 00:22:03,800 --> 00:22:08,320 Speaker 1: That is the highest level of dissatisfaction in fifty years, 385 00:22:09,119 --> 00:22:13,440 Speaker 1: and that's according to the Wall Street Journal. So you 386 00:22:13,560 --> 00:22:18,880 Speaker 1: have the public saying that we are in bad times. 387 00:22:19,320 --> 00:22:24,879 Speaker 1: Fifty nine percent says they're minimizing their electricity use because 388 00:22:24,920 --> 00:22:28,320 Speaker 1: the price of electricity is sky high, especially in areas 389 00:22:28,359 --> 00:22:33,640 Speaker 1: where they went to the expensive solar and wind. Seventy 390 00:22:33,680 --> 00:22:37,240 Speaker 1: seven percent are spending less money on entertainment or dining 391 00:22:37,280 --> 00:22:39,800 Speaker 1: out because every extra dollar that you have to spend 392 00:22:39,800 --> 00:22:42,160 Speaker 1: at the gas pump, that dollar comes out from something else. 393 00:22:42,720 --> 00:22:44,720 Speaker 1: So they're not going to the restaurant. Maybe they're not 394 00:22:44,720 --> 00:22:46,840 Speaker 1: going to a movie, they're not buying tickets to a 395 00:22:46,880 --> 00:22:52,120 Speaker 1: ball game. Thirty seven percent says the country's economy has 396 00:22:52,160 --> 00:22:56,800 Speaker 1: been a major financial stress on their household thirty seven percent. 397 00:22:57,119 --> 00:23:00,800 Speaker 1: Fifty percent say it's at least a minor stress. Only 398 00:23:00,840 --> 00:23:03,600 Speaker 1: thirteen percent say they're not dealing with any money problems. 399 00:23:04,440 --> 00:23:08,960 Speaker 1: It's about that eighty seven percent, eighty seven percent. That's 400 00:23:08,960 --> 00:23:11,439 Speaker 1: the third time that number has come up. Eighty seven percent. 401 00:23:11,480 --> 00:23:13,600 Speaker 1: They say they've made more of an effort to find 402 00:23:13,600 --> 00:23:17,359 Speaker 1: the cheapest prices for products. There's only twelve percent who 403 00:23:17,400 --> 00:23:21,760 Speaker 1: said they're not looking for deals. And listen to this. 404 00:23:22,560 --> 00:23:26,680 Speaker 1: Twenty seven percent of those polled said the inflation issue 405 00:23:27,200 --> 00:23:30,600 Speaker 1: the bad economy has forced them to take a second 406 00:23:30,680 --> 00:23:36,320 Speaker 1: job or work additional hours. Again, this is according to 407 00:23:36,520 --> 00:23:41,840 Speaker 1: the Washington Post George Mason University poll. So not a 408 00:23:41,920 --> 00:23:44,960 Speaker 1: right wing cook outfit. All right, it's a quarter of 409 00:23:45,000 --> 00:23:47,200 Speaker 1: the public. A quarter of the public is working a 410 00:23:47,440 --> 00:23:51,720 Speaker 1: second job or extra hours because inflation is so high. 411 00:23:51,800 --> 00:23:55,080 Speaker 1: And almost forty percent say the economy is a major 412 00:23:55,119 --> 00:23:59,000 Speaker 1: financial stress. Meantime, play that beginning of the Biden clip again. 413 00:24:00,280 --> 00:24:03,440 Speaker 1: Here's where we are. We have the fastest growing economy 414 00:24:03,520 --> 00:24:07,359 Speaker 1: in the world. The world again, the world again. We 415 00:24:07,480 --> 00:24:09,919 Speaker 1: have eight point six million new jobs. Just since I 416 00:24:10,000 --> 00:24:14,160 Speaker 1: got an office. Unemployment race down to three point six percent. Stop. 417 00:24:15,680 --> 00:24:22,840 Speaker 1: This is what's frustrating. You got Chessibodine denying that crime 418 00:24:23,080 --> 00:24:27,040 Speaker 1: is overwhelming in San Francisco, even after they kick him 419 00:24:27,040 --> 00:24:29,960 Speaker 1: out of office, he's denying it. You got Biden on 420 00:24:30,160 --> 00:24:35,720 Speaker 1: Jimmy Kimmel. Look, look what the public is saying. How 421 00:24:35,720 --> 00:24:37,520 Speaker 1: many times do you get eighty seven percent of the 422 00:24:37,560 --> 00:24:40,679 Speaker 1: public to agree on something. They're telling him it stinks 423 00:24:40,720 --> 00:24:45,800 Speaker 1: out there. The inflation average might be eight percent, but 424 00:24:45,960 --> 00:24:50,199 Speaker 1: specific inflation in some categories that we use can be 425 00:24:51,280 --> 00:24:57,240 Speaker 1: twenty thirty more. And he's telling us, No, everything's fine 426 00:24:58,920 --> 00:25:03,600 Speaker 1: and chessibodea, no crime is going down. Everybody says the opposite. 427 00:25:03,600 --> 00:25:04,919 Speaker 1: You know, I heard the other day another one of 428 00:25:04,920 --> 00:25:07,920 Speaker 1: these better or work. You know that loser is running 429 00:25:07,960 --> 00:25:10,679 Speaker 1: for governor in Texas. Actually had a clip at him 430 00:25:10,720 --> 00:25:14,760 Speaker 1: at some you know, campaign event. He's telling the crowd 431 00:25:14,920 --> 00:25:20,560 Speaker 1: that the border is is in good condition. There's there's 432 00:25:20,560 --> 00:25:22,320 Speaker 1: like literally a million and a half people that have 433 00:25:22,359 --> 00:25:24,320 Speaker 1: crossed the border in the last year and a half. 434 00:25:24,640 --> 00:25:27,080 Speaker 1: And he was actually telling all the people there. Now, 435 00:25:27,080 --> 00:25:29,600 Speaker 1: I was like, there's no problem at the border. They 436 00:25:29,760 --> 00:25:33,040 Speaker 1: just say the opposite of the truth. They sit there 437 00:25:33,080 --> 00:25:37,359 Speaker 1: with a straight face. They're sociopaths, They're absolute sociopaths. But 438 00:25:37,840 --> 00:25:41,560 Speaker 1: they're not fooling anybody. All right, more, coming up, Tod 439 00:25:41,600 --> 00:25:46,040 Speaker 1: Spitzer after five o'clock. I got a weird story for 440 00:25:46,080 --> 00:25:49,320 Speaker 1: your Deborah coming up. I tried to find weird. Thanks. 441 00:25:49,520 --> 00:25:53,960 Speaker 1: I like weird. Yeah, obviously, Johnny can Camp. Now you 442 00:25:54,160 --> 00:25:56,760 Speaker 1: you've probably seen all the news reports in the video 443 00:25:56,800 --> 00:26:00,159 Speaker 1: you got hundreds of thousands illegal aliens streaming over the 444 00:26:00,160 --> 00:26:04,320 Speaker 1: border every month, and we were talking about how U 445 00:26:05,960 --> 00:26:08,359 Speaker 1: now the thing to do is just to say the 446 00:26:08,480 --> 00:26:11,520 Speaker 1: opposite of the truth, but say it really loudly and 447 00:26:11,640 --> 00:26:15,560 Speaker 1: insistently and defiantly. And Chessa Bodine is keeps insisting crime 448 00:26:16,119 --> 00:26:19,160 Speaker 1: is going down, and Gascone is saying that as well. 449 00:26:20,119 --> 00:26:24,320 Speaker 1: Joe Joe Biden is saying the economy is one of 450 00:26:24,320 --> 00:26:26,639 Speaker 1: the best in the world, and eighty seven percent of 451 00:26:26,680 --> 00:26:32,160 Speaker 1: the public disagrees. And then Betto or Rourke, We're gonna 452 00:26:32,160 --> 00:26:35,879 Speaker 1: play a clip again. There's hundreds of thousands of illegal 453 00:26:35,920 --> 00:26:39,600 Speaker 1: aliens crossing every month, and here's Betto or Rourke at 454 00:26:39,600 --> 00:26:42,200 Speaker 1: a campaign appearance, and we all agree that we want 455 00:26:42,240 --> 00:26:44,399 Speaker 1: the border to be better. In fact, I think the 456 00:26:44,440 --> 00:26:49,159 Speaker 1: border is pretty great right now. And we all he 457 00:26:49,320 --> 00:26:53,880 Speaker 1: just said that yesterday. Ports Betty Port is pretty great 458 00:26:53,960 --> 00:26:59,280 Speaker 1: right now? Yeah, all right now, Deborah, there's an animal 459 00:26:59,640 --> 00:27:04,840 Speaker 1: compo on into this story. Do you familiar with a 460 00:27:04,880 --> 00:27:09,760 Speaker 1: Republican congressman named Lauren Bobert. I'm not familiar with, not 461 00:27:09,760 --> 00:27:12,879 Speaker 1: not Lorraina Bobbitt. Well, I'm familiar with her. No, no, 462 00:27:13,480 --> 00:27:18,760 Speaker 1: this one's not as almost as nuts. Lauren Bobert was 463 00:27:18,800 --> 00:27:25,159 Speaker 1: elected a congressmanman out of Colorado in twenty twenty, and 464 00:27:25,680 --> 00:27:31,760 Speaker 1: she is way out there. She's a Qunan girl, and 465 00:27:32,680 --> 00:27:37,520 Speaker 1: she also believes in gun rights, to the point that 466 00:27:38,040 --> 00:27:41,760 Speaker 1: she set off a metal detector while trying to get 467 00:27:41,800 --> 00:27:46,560 Speaker 1: into the Capitol building. This has happened more than once, 468 00:27:46,680 --> 00:27:50,600 Speaker 1: including on January sixth. She carries a gun in her 469 00:27:50,600 --> 00:27:55,440 Speaker 1: bag and the metal detector goes off and she won't 470 00:27:55,440 --> 00:28:00,080 Speaker 1: allow them to search the bag. She believes in all 471 00:28:00,160 --> 00:28:05,240 Speaker 1: kinds of conspiracy theories, including the election conspiracy theory. She 472 00:28:05,359 --> 00:28:08,000 Speaker 1: had promised she was going to carry a gun while 473 00:28:08,040 --> 00:28:12,399 Speaker 1: working on Capitol Hill. She had one video ad showing 474 00:28:12,400 --> 00:28:15,360 Speaker 1: replacing a handgun in a hip holster and walking through 475 00:28:15,400 --> 00:28:20,159 Speaker 1: the neighborhood near federal buildings. This is her. She just 476 00:28:20,200 --> 00:28:24,680 Speaker 1: refuses the bag check. So this is what she's about. 477 00:28:25,560 --> 00:28:31,359 Speaker 1: She's in the news. She was driving an ATV. In 478 00:28:31,440 --> 00:28:35,800 Speaker 1: the ATV was her sister in law, actually her ex 479 00:28:35,880 --> 00:28:40,800 Speaker 1: sister in law, her son, Larren Bobert's son, and her 480 00:28:40,840 --> 00:28:45,520 Speaker 1: dog and the ATV went out of control. Now you've 481 00:28:45,520 --> 00:28:47,840 Speaker 1: got your sister in law, your son, and your dog 482 00:28:48,120 --> 00:28:52,440 Speaker 1: all in the ATV. What do you do? She jumped 483 00:28:52,440 --> 00:28:55,200 Speaker 1: out of the ATV and let them all crash into 484 00:28:55,280 --> 00:29:04,960 Speaker 1: a rock wall. My god, yes, she abandoned everybody. That's 485 00:29:05,000 --> 00:29:10,360 Speaker 1: against the rules. I'm not supposed to do that. Show 486 00:29:10,400 --> 00:29:12,560 Speaker 1: me that rule. Well, you know, a captain of a 487 00:29:12,600 --> 00:29:14,640 Speaker 1: ship rights, it is supposed to go down with the ship. 488 00:29:14,680 --> 00:29:16,880 Speaker 1: We're not supposed to bail. And then I'm assuming if 489 00:29:16,880 --> 00:29:19,400 Speaker 1: you're driving, if you're the driver of the ATV, you 490 00:29:19,560 --> 00:29:23,560 Speaker 1: should not jump out and leave the ex sister in 491 00:29:23,640 --> 00:29:27,120 Speaker 1: law dog, you know the dog, the dog, Yes, I know, 492 00:29:27,200 --> 00:29:31,760 Speaker 1: I know the dog would and the and the kid right. Um, 493 00:29:32,560 --> 00:29:35,240 Speaker 1: So she lost control the ATV and she bailed out. 494 00:29:35,600 --> 00:29:40,240 Speaker 1: So the jeep continued and smashed into a rock. Face Uh, 495 00:29:40,360 --> 00:29:42,840 Speaker 1: Tory Hooper. The sister in law got the worst of it. 496 00:29:42,960 --> 00:29:45,920 Speaker 1: I mean she got her face got really smashed hard 497 00:29:45,960 --> 00:29:51,200 Speaker 1: into the rock. Yeah, just like her face was flattened. Um, 498 00:29:51,920 --> 00:29:54,280 Speaker 1: and and and later on they had to break her 499 00:29:54,320 --> 00:29:57,040 Speaker 1: nose to reset it. And and she had a bad 500 00:29:57,040 --> 00:30:00,840 Speaker 1: reaction to something and ended up in a coma. She 501 00:30:00,880 --> 00:30:04,880 Speaker 1: had really bad injuries to her chest. Somehow, the dog 502 00:30:04,920 --> 00:30:09,000 Speaker 1: and the boy survived this without anything serious happening. Now 503 00:30:09,320 --> 00:30:14,920 Speaker 1: here's what makes it worse. After it happened, Lauren Bobert 504 00:30:15,320 --> 00:30:21,240 Speaker 1: begged her sister in law, not the sister in law's 505 00:30:21,240 --> 00:30:25,680 Speaker 1: Tory Hooper, not to tell anybody to keep quiet because 506 00:30:25,760 --> 00:30:30,440 Speaker 1: it was two weeks before her primary Please, well, that's 507 00:30:30,480 --> 00:30:34,480 Speaker 1: not surprising. And the sister in law kept quiet. Really yeah, 508 00:30:34,480 --> 00:30:39,200 Speaker 1: her face was in pieces. But what was she promise? Well, 509 00:30:39,240 --> 00:30:41,480 Speaker 1: Bobert said that she would pay for all the medical 510 00:30:44,240 --> 00:30:52,760 Speaker 1: except her Hooper's insurance covered that. Anyway, Tory couldn't get 511 00:30:53,200 --> 00:30:56,360 Speaker 1: here it is. Bobert got out of the driver's seat, 512 00:30:56,880 --> 00:30:59,720 Speaker 1: got out of the ATV. It's still running. Tory was 513 00:30:59,800 --> 00:31:02,920 Speaker 1: left screaming and freaking out son and the dog in 514 00:31:02,960 --> 00:31:05,600 Speaker 1: the backseat. Tory couldn't get out of her seat belt, 515 00:31:05,920 --> 00:31:08,600 Speaker 1: so she grabbed the steering wheel and steered it into 516 00:31:08,640 --> 00:31:11,080 Speaker 1: the cliff. They hit the rock wall. It struck her 517 00:31:11,120 --> 00:31:15,480 Speaker 1: whole face. It was bad. That's unforgivable. I'm sorry, I 518 00:31:15,520 --> 00:31:20,560 Speaker 1: would not keep quiet. Somebody who witnessed Tory Hooper's arrival 519 00:31:20,560 --> 00:31:26,880 Speaker 1: at the hospital set her injuries were severe and she 520 00:31:27,000 --> 00:31:31,560 Speaker 1: got stuck inside the crevice inside the jeep and Lauren 521 00:31:32,000 --> 00:31:36,320 Speaker 1: just took off her belt and got out, showed up 522 00:31:36,360 --> 00:31:39,880 Speaker 1: for work Tory with broken teeth and other terrible injuries 523 00:31:39,880 --> 00:31:44,400 Speaker 1: to her face.
