1
00:00:00,760 --> 00:00:03,000
Speaker 1: Can't. If I am six forty you're listening to the

2
00:00:03,080 --> 00:00:07,160
Speaker 1: John Cobel podcast on the iHeartRadio app. This is the

3
00:00:07,240 --> 00:00:09,280
Speaker 1: last call here for the moist line. It's going to

4
00:00:09,320 --> 00:00:12,639
Speaker 1: be tomorrow eight seven seven Moist eighty six, eight seven seven,

5
00:00:12,680 --> 00:00:15,840
Speaker 1: Moist eighty six. Or use the talkback feature on the

6
00:00:15,840 --> 00:00:19,520
Speaker 1: iHeartRadio app and just let loose on whatever's making you

7
00:00:19,600 --> 00:00:26,520
Speaker 1: crazy about life in California. There's endless possibilities there. We've had.

8
00:00:26,560 --> 00:00:30,440
Speaker 1: Johnny's been on the show many times. He has been

9
00:00:30,520 --> 00:00:35,040
Speaker 1: the dean of the law school at Chapman University, constitutional scholar.

10
00:00:35,120 --> 00:00:38,159
Speaker 1: He would be on our show many times to discuss

11
00:00:38,159 --> 00:00:41,560
Speaker 1: Supreme Court decisions. He helped us out with election coverage,

12
00:00:41,840 --> 00:00:44,240
Speaker 1: and then suddenly he was at the center of the

13
00:00:44,240 --> 00:00:49,760
Speaker 1: biggest storm in the world when after the election Biden

14
00:00:49,840 --> 00:00:53,720
Speaker 1: defeats Trump. And he's been described as the architect of

15
00:00:53,840 --> 00:00:58,800
Speaker 1: the legal theory that Trump could remain as president. This

16
00:00:58,880 --> 00:01:04,399
Speaker 1: theory was to pressure Mike Pence to keep to give

17
00:01:04,440 --> 00:01:10,679
Speaker 1: the election to Trump during that certification proceeding. And also

18
00:01:10,800 --> 00:01:14,000
Speaker 1: he's been well, he wasn't charged in that he was

19
00:01:14,040 --> 00:01:18,720
Speaker 1: an unindicted co conspirator. He was indicted in Georgia over

20
00:01:18,840 --> 00:01:23,680
Speaker 1: interference in that election. Now he's getting his law license

21
00:01:24,200 --> 00:01:29,840
Speaker 1: stripped from him. It happened yesterday Judge in California, and

22
00:01:29,880 --> 00:01:31,959
Speaker 1: we're gonna have John Eastman on to talk about all this,

23
00:01:32,280 --> 00:01:35,120
Speaker 1: and I'm sure to refute much of it. John, welcome.

24
00:01:35,160 --> 00:01:39,760
Speaker 1: How are you? John Eastman? You're there.

25
00:01:42,760 --> 00:01:44,759
Speaker 2: I'm here. Sorry about that. It's been a while. How

26
00:01:44,760 --> 00:01:45,440
Speaker 2: are you guys doing.

27
00:01:45,920 --> 00:01:49,600
Speaker 1: I'm fine. Hey, this is not looking good here. You're

28
00:01:49,640 --> 00:01:53,120
Speaker 1: gonna lose your law license in California. Overall the trouble

29
00:01:53,200 --> 00:01:55,280
Speaker 1: you've gotten into with the Trump election.

30
00:01:56,120 --> 00:01:58,360
Speaker 2: Well, I really need to I really need to clarify

31
00:01:58,440 --> 00:02:00,800
Speaker 2: something you said. I didn't ask by President pens to

32
00:02:00,800 --> 00:02:05,600
Speaker 2: simply gabble Trump reelected. We urged him to accept requests

33
00:02:05,640 --> 00:02:08,480
Speaker 2: from hundreds of state legislators to give them a week

34
00:02:08,480 --> 00:02:10,400
Speaker 2: to ten days now that they were back in session,

35
00:02:10,440 --> 00:02:12,800
Speaker 2: to assess the impact of what they all acknowledged was

36
00:02:12,880 --> 00:02:15,519
Speaker 2: illegal conduct in the election, and to see if it

37
00:02:15,560 --> 00:02:17,760
Speaker 2: had an impact on the results, and if it did,

38
00:02:17,840 --> 00:02:20,640
Speaker 2: to make sure the proper winner was certified if it

39
00:02:20,720 --> 00:02:23,959
Speaker 2: did not. The memo I actually prepared, said Biden wins.

40
00:02:24,680 --> 00:02:27,960
Speaker 2: So this was you're accepting the new York Times skewed

41
00:02:28,040 --> 00:02:31,840
Speaker 2: narrative of what the advice was. It was not to

42
00:02:31,880 --> 00:02:35,200
Speaker 2: simply gabble Trump elected to keep in office despite a loss.

43
00:02:35,240 --> 00:02:37,840
Speaker 2: It was to challenge the legitimacy of the election and

44
00:02:37,880 --> 00:02:40,720
Speaker 2: to try and determine who actually won when you got

45
00:02:40,800 --> 00:02:41,799
Speaker 2: rid of illegal votes.

46
00:02:43,400 --> 00:02:46,680
Speaker 1: Well, I guess this is the whole numb of the

47
00:02:47,200 --> 00:02:51,200
Speaker 1: legal dispute that Trump is dealing with. That like in Georgia,

48
00:02:51,320 --> 00:02:55,280
Speaker 1: I heard his lawyers today talking about the free expression,

49
00:02:56,160 --> 00:02:59,280
Speaker 1: freedom of speech. He was expressing his opinion on the election.

50
00:02:59,480 --> 00:03:01,640
Speaker 1: That is than interfering with an election.

51
00:03:03,400 --> 00:03:05,720
Speaker 2: That's absolutely correct. And you know, we've got a long history.

52
00:03:05,720 --> 00:03:09,760
Speaker 2: I mean, Hillary Clinton continues to insist that the election

53
00:03:09,840 --> 00:03:12,839
Speaker 2: in twenty sixteen was stolen from her. I haven't seen

54
00:03:12,880 --> 00:03:16,079
Speaker 2: anybody moving to get her bar license stripped or bring

55
00:03:16,120 --> 00:03:19,160
Speaker 2: criminal charges against her for those clearly false statements. There

56
00:03:19,200 --> 00:03:23,960
Speaker 2: was much less challenge of the facts of that case,

57
00:03:24,000 --> 00:03:26,640
Speaker 2: and there was here, I mean, but she continues to

58
00:03:26,680 --> 00:03:29,920
Speaker 2: insist on this completely made up story that her campaign funded,

59
00:03:29,960 --> 00:03:33,960
Speaker 2: about a rush of fake collusion story. And nobody's gone

60
00:03:34,000 --> 00:03:37,200
Speaker 2: after them because, you know, for making those clearly false statements.

61
00:03:37,240 --> 00:03:39,360
Speaker 2: And yet they're going after those of us who are

62
00:03:40,000 --> 00:03:45,600
Speaker 2: with well supported arguments and actual evidence of election illegality,

63
00:03:46,040 --> 00:03:48,880
Speaker 2: raising questions about the legitimacy the election. This is what

64
00:03:48,960 --> 00:03:51,480
Speaker 2: the First Amendment protects more than anything else.

65
00:03:51,480 --> 00:03:55,160
Speaker 1: All right that I'm not going to I'm not going

66
00:03:55,240 --> 00:03:59,680
Speaker 1: to be able to compete with you, your constitutional scholar.

67
00:04:00,320 --> 00:04:03,320
Speaker 1: But I am wondering why the judge in this case,

68
00:04:03,440 --> 00:04:07,240
Speaker 1: Javette Roland, who is stripping your law license, said you

69
00:04:07,520 --> 00:04:13,560
Speaker 1: misrepresented facts in lawsuits regarding the election results. You acted dishonestly,

70
00:04:14,400 --> 00:04:17,800
Speaker 1: You had a wild theory. You exhibited gross negligence and

71
00:04:17,839 --> 00:04:22,160
Speaker 1: making false statements about the election without conducting any meaningful

72
00:04:22,200 --> 00:04:27,480
Speaker 1: investigation or verification of the information. You breached your ethical

73
00:04:27,560 --> 00:04:33,239
Speaker 1: duty as an attorney to prioritize honesty and integrity.

74
00:04:33,279 --> 00:04:36,080
Speaker 2: Did you watch any of the ten week trial the

75
00:04:37,040 --> 00:04:40,400
Speaker 2: week it was the longest and most expensive in history,

76
00:04:40,560 --> 00:04:44,760
Speaker 2: is what one commentator suggested, and I think that's probably right.

77
00:04:45,279 --> 00:04:48,039
Speaker 2: What she doesn't quote in that one hundred and twenty

78
00:04:48,080 --> 00:04:50,880
Speaker 2: eight page opinion is all of the evidence we put

79
00:04:50,920 --> 00:04:55,240
Speaker 2: in that contradicted that. What we have here are disputes

80
00:04:55,279 --> 00:04:59,440
Speaker 2: about facts. So, for example, it was clearly illegal and

81
00:04:59,480 --> 00:05:03,440
Speaker 2: wiscon for the Secretary of State to bar the statutory

82
00:05:03,560 --> 00:05:06,800
Speaker 2: required bipartisan teams from being in nursing home before people

83
00:05:06,800 --> 00:05:09,719
Speaker 2: could harvest ballots out of the nursing homes. That was illegal.

84
00:05:10,120 --> 00:05:12,160
Speaker 2: We know for a fact that it opened the door

85
00:05:12,200 --> 00:05:15,120
Speaker 2: for fraud and that people walked through that door because

86
00:05:15,680 --> 00:05:18,560
Speaker 2: nursing home turnout rates went on the historic average of

87
00:05:18,600 --> 00:05:21,320
Speaker 2: twenty thirty percent to nearly one hundred percent, and many

88
00:05:21,360 --> 00:05:23,080
Speaker 2: of the ballots were in the same handwriting.

89
00:05:23,120 --> 00:05:26,240
Speaker 1: But why does the judge think you ought to lose

90
00:05:26,279 --> 00:05:27,679
Speaker 1: your license, your law license.

91
00:05:28,040 --> 00:05:31,920
Speaker 2: Well, because she's she's accepting a false enary. Look, she's

92
00:05:31,920 --> 00:05:35,440
Speaker 2: a Democrat donor, she's a Democrat appointed judge, and she's

93
00:05:35,480 --> 00:05:39,240
Speaker 2: accepting the government's claims that are patently false as if

94
00:05:39,279 --> 00:05:42,360
Speaker 2: they're true. You, guys, more than anybody, ought to understand

95
00:05:42,400 --> 00:05:44,919
Speaker 2: that when the government speaks, whether it's on COVID or

96
00:05:45,000 --> 00:05:49,200
Speaker 2: vaccine mandates, or masks or CRT, you ought to understand

97
00:05:49,200 --> 00:05:51,440
Speaker 2: that the government doesn't always tell the truth.

98
00:05:51,760 --> 00:05:56,160
Speaker 1: I'm just asking questions, trying to understand. You are very

99
00:05:56,200 --> 00:06:01,239
Speaker 1: forceful about your positions, and it seems like you stand,

100
00:06:01,760 --> 00:06:05,120
Speaker 1: if not alone. It's it's not a very well populated Island.

101
00:06:05,240 --> 00:06:09,000
Speaker 1: I mean cases were brought and we've gone through this before.

102
00:06:10,320 --> 00:06:13,360
Speaker 2: I have millions and millions of Americans that hold the

103
00:06:13,400 --> 00:06:16,440
Speaker 2: same views on this. Look, look what we all saw

104
00:06:16,520 --> 00:06:19,320
Speaker 2: with our own eyes was at the very least illegality

105
00:06:19,400 --> 00:06:22,320
Speaker 2: and gross irregularity in the conduct of the election and

106
00:06:22,440 --> 00:06:24,479
Speaker 2: people that are raising that and then we got a

107
00:06:24,480 --> 00:06:28,560
Speaker 2: comment here being criminally prosecuted for it. This is this

108
00:06:28,720 --> 00:06:30,040
Speaker 2: is a serious problem.

109
00:06:30,600 --> 00:06:33,560
Speaker 1: Is the is the whole system in America corrupt? In

110
00:06:33,600 --> 00:06:36,320
Speaker 1: all the states, the governments, the elections, the whole thing

111
00:06:36,400 --> 00:06:41,239
Speaker 1: is corrupt. The judges because because no, no, I've.

112
00:06:41,080 --> 00:06:44,200
Speaker 2: Not said that this this court proceeding was a sham.

113
00:06:44,839 --> 00:06:47,039
Speaker 2: And if you watch the ten weeks or read you know,

114
00:06:47,120 --> 00:06:49,800
Speaker 2: one of the best reporters who did a day to

115
00:06:49,880 --> 00:06:52,159
Speaker 2: day coverage while the wall coverage of it was with

116
00:06:52,200 --> 00:06:55,440
Speaker 2: the Arizona Sun Times, Rachel Alexander, read her pieces on this.

117
00:06:56,160 --> 00:06:57,800
Speaker 2: You don't have to take my word for it. This

118
00:06:57,880 --> 00:07:00,400
Speaker 2: is a reporter that was there watching and this was

119
00:07:00,480 --> 00:07:02,719
Speaker 2: stunned about what was happening. I'll give you another example.

120
00:07:03,839 --> 00:07:05,720
Speaker 2: We tried to I had an expert, one of the

121
00:07:05,800 --> 00:07:10,880
Speaker 2: leading CPA does forensic audits of fortune five hundred companies

122
00:07:11,160 --> 00:07:14,840
Speaker 2: who published a book on the forensic audit of the

123
00:07:14,880 --> 00:07:17,760
Speaker 2: election said these elections should not have been certified. The

124
00:07:17,840 --> 00:07:21,720
Speaker 2: judge prohibited that witness from testifying, prohibited his report from

125
00:07:21,760 --> 00:07:24,480
Speaker 2: being entered into evidence because it was not published till

126
00:07:24,560 --> 00:07:30,480
Speaker 2: January twenty twenty three, long after the judge, based on

127
00:07:30,560 --> 00:07:32,640
Speaker 2: the very evidence that I had before me.

128
00:07:32,760 --> 00:07:36,800
Speaker 1: Accuse you of moral offers, a moral terpitude for the

129
00:07:36,880 --> 00:07:41,520
Speaker 1: dubious strategy of trying to influence Pence to take unilateral action.

130
00:07:42,880 --> 00:07:44,920
Speaker 1: Come on, come on, I'm just reading what she wrote.

131
00:07:46,360 --> 00:07:49,680
Speaker 2: I know what she wrote. Think about going behind what

132
00:07:49,760 --> 00:07:52,160
Speaker 2: she wrote and look at whether it's legitimate or not.

133
00:07:52,800 --> 00:07:56,320
Speaker 2: The notion that it's moral turpitude to question an election

134
00:07:56,720 --> 00:08:00,440
Speaker 2: and exercise First Amendment rights, the free speech to petition

135
00:08:00,520 --> 00:08:03,280
Speaker 2: the government for redress of grievances. Are you guys taking

136
00:08:03,280 --> 00:08:04,280
Speaker 2: the position? John?

137
00:08:04,640 --> 00:08:07,440
Speaker 1: Nobody say I'm not. I'm not taking a position. I

138
00:08:07,560 --> 00:08:10,720
Speaker 1: just know the listeners, the audience doesn't really know what

139
00:08:10,760 --> 00:08:15,200
Speaker 1: this is about. You're very well known, so when they

140
00:08:15,280 --> 00:08:18,440
Speaker 1: hear John Eastman is getting his law license stripped, they

141
00:08:18,520 --> 00:08:21,800
Speaker 1: figure you've done something really horrible. It's very rare that

142
00:08:21,840 --> 00:08:23,440
Speaker 1: somebody loses their law license.

143
00:08:24,040 --> 00:08:27,680
Speaker 2: And so that's the point is this is unprecedented what

144
00:08:27,840 --> 00:08:31,680
Speaker 2: happened with this trial, and it's based on forcing people

145
00:08:31,720 --> 00:08:35,280
Speaker 2: to accept a government narrative that is patently false, and

146
00:08:35,320 --> 00:08:37,240
Speaker 2: if you don't bend your knee to it, they're going

147
00:08:37,320 --> 00:08:41,280
Speaker 2: to destroy you. This is Awellian, this is authoritarianism. And

148
00:08:41,320 --> 00:08:43,600
Speaker 2: you guys are kind of libertarian side of this thing.

149
00:08:43,640 --> 00:08:47,040
Speaker 2: You ought to understand and the really insensed about.

150
00:08:46,240 --> 00:08:50,880
Speaker 1: Well, I am very fascinated by the idea that even

151
00:08:50,920 --> 00:08:53,120
Speaker 1: if you have a crackpot theory, even if you have

152
00:08:53,240 --> 00:08:57,960
Speaker 1: a wrong theory, is it actually illegal to push that

153
00:08:58,040 --> 00:09:01,320
Speaker 1: theory in public or you're accused of election interference or

154
00:09:01,360 --> 00:09:04,520
Speaker 1: you get your law license stripped. I don't. I think

155
00:09:04,520 --> 00:09:08,360
Speaker 1: Trump legitimately lost the election, all right, but I.

156
00:09:08,280 --> 00:09:10,680
Speaker 2: Do know and I and I disagree with that. Are

157
00:09:10,720 --> 00:09:11,760
Speaker 2: we going to criminalize that?

158
00:09:12,360 --> 00:09:15,800
Speaker 1: Well, all right, that's enough. That's where that's where I

159
00:09:15,960 --> 00:09:20,439
Speaker 1: understand where you're coming from. I think he lost it.

160
00:09:20,679 --> 00:09:24,640
Speaker 1: You think he didn't lose it, But why has it? Why?

161
00:09:25,920 --> 00:09:29,200
Speaker 1: Why is it that your belief has been transformed from

162
00:09:29,240 --> 00:09:33,120
Speaker 1: an opinion into a crime. I think there's a lot

163
00:09:33,120 --> 00:09:35,160
Speaker 1: of people who don't understand that you you have the

164
00:09:35,280 --> 00:09:37,800
Speaker 1: right to be wrong, You have the right to have

165
00:09:38,120 --> 00:09:42,439
Speaker 1: a nutty theory. Why has this become a crime for

166
00:09:42,559 --> 00:09:44,440
Speaker 1: you and other people involved in this case.

167
00:09:45,280 --> 00:09:47,200
Speaker 2: Well, that's that's enough. And you know, and I'll push

168
00:09:47,280 --> 00:09:49,640
Speaker 2: back that it wasn't a nutty theory and I wasn't wrong.

169
00:09:49,520 --> 00:09:52,079
Speaker 1: But no, no, I'm theoretically a lot of people have

170
00:09:52,160 --> 00:09:54,240
Speaker 1: nutty theories, a lot of people are wrong. You say

171
00:09:54,320 --> 00:09:56,960
Speaker 1: things publicly, and now it becomes a crime, and that's

172
00:09:57,080 --> 00:09:59,440
Speaker 1: that's where I think there there's a lot of people

173
00:09:59,440 --> 00:10:00,400
Speaker 1: who are trouble by.

174
00:10:00,320 --> 00:10:04,640
Speaker 2: That, and they should be because if you speak out

175
00:10:04,760 --> 00:10:09,120
Speaker 2: against anything the government, this is authoritarianism. This is George

176
00:10:09,240 --> 00:10:11,920
Speaker 2: Orwell's nineteen eighty four two plus two is five. The

177
00:10:12,000 --> 00:10:14,720
Speaker 2: government says so, and if you not only repeat that lie,

178
00:10:15,200 --> 00:10:17,280
Speaker 2: but you've got to believe that lie, or we're going

179
00:10:17,360 --> 00:10:19,199
Speaker 2: to destroy you. We're going to send people from the

180
00:10:19,280 --> 00:10:22,120
Speaker 2: Ministry of Love they called it, to torture you into

181
00:10:22,240 --> 00:10:26,280
Speaker 2: accepting the government's falsehood. If we're not the reason we

182
00:10:26,400 --> 00:10:28,880
Speaker 2: have a First Amendment, prank Court has said, look, even

183
00:10:29,000 --> 00:10:32,240
Speaker 2: false statements are protected under the First Amendment because the

184
00:10:32,280 --> 00:10:34,760
Speaker 2: best way to respond to false statement is by putting

185
00:10:34,760 --> 00:10:37,360
Speaker 2: out true statements. But if you let the government start

186
00:10:37,400 --> 00:10:40,360
Speaker 2: deciding what's going to qualify as truth in fact and

187
00:10:40,480 --> 00:10:44,000
Speaker 2: falsity and then shut down. This is the same issue

188
00:10:44,000 --> 00:10:48,440
Speaker 2: about the social media platform censoring speech that they decided

189
00:10:48,559 --> 00:10:50,600
Speaker 2: was misinformation, all right, or the government.

190
00:10:51,480 --> 00:10:56,240
Speaker 1: I gotta go. I appreciate you coming on and are

191
00:10:56,520 --> 00:10:57,800
Speaker 1: I guess you're going to appeal this right?

192
00:10:59,240 --> 00:11:02,319
Speaker 2: Of course it will be. It will be a thorough repudiation.

193
00:11:02,559 --> 00:11:04,800
Speaker 2: Pin By the way, if anybody wants to help give

194
00:11:04,960 --> 00:11:08,560
Speaker 2: sendgo dot com. Slash Eastman is where I post updates.

195
00:11:08,559 --> 00:11:10,360
Speaker 2: But it's also my legal defense fun pitch.

196
00:11:10,679 --> 00:11:13,520
Speaker 1: All right, John, John Eastman, talk to you again soon.

197
00:11:14,559 --> 00:11:18,840
Speaker 3: You're listening to John Cobelt on demand from KFI AM

198
00:11:18,920 --> 00:11:19,440
Speaker 3: six forty.

199
00:11:20,760 --> 00:11:22,680
Speaker 1: We're on the air from one until four and then

200
00:11:22,760 --> 00:11:28,760
Speaker 1: after four o'clock John Cobelt's show on demand. They got

201
00:11:29,240 --> 00:11:32,360
Speaker 1: let's see Dodgers are winning seven to one. Uh So,

202
00:11:32,720 --> 00:11:36,120
Speaker 1: the other stories involving the Dodgers' activist groups want the

203
00:11:36,160 --> 00:11:39,280
Speaker 1: Dodgers to chip in on reparations to pay off the

204
00:11:39,760 --> 00:11:43,560
Speaker 1: families who were moved out to build Dodger Stadium sixty

205
00:11:43,640 --> 00:11:47,040
Speaker 1: plus years ago. They also did a big piece in

206
00:11:47,080 --> 00:11:51,440
Speaker 1: the Orange County Register on Matthew Boyer Bawlyer, rather Matthew Bawlyer.

207
00:11:52,400 --> 00:11:57,360
Speaker 1: He's one of these gambling goons, this guy, because you

208
00:11:57,440 --> 00:11:59,079
Speaker 1: know he was. He was the mystery man in this,

209
00:11:59,640 --> 00:12:03,319
Speaker 1: in this gambling scandal, he got the four hundred and

210
00:12:03,360 --> 00:12:09,240
Speaker 1: fifty thousand dollars of Otani's money supposedly to somehow cover

211
00:12:09,400 --> 00:12:16,640
Speaker 1: the bets of the interpreter at a Misuhara, and Orange

212
00:12:16,679 --> 00:12:21,360
Speaker 1: County Register is reporting that he's forty nine years old,

213
00:12:23,160 --> 00:12:29,680
Speaker 1: and he has he has lost almost a half million

214
00:12:29,760 --> 00:12:36,360
Speaker 1: dollars to two Las Vegas casinos, and that's listed in

215
00:12:36,440 --> 00:12:44,719
Speaker 1: a twenty eleven bankruptcy. He's he's been a bookie, a

216
00:12:44,840 --> 00:12:50,080
Speaker 1: commodities trainer, trader, owner of a failed pest control business,

217
00:12:51,040 --> 00:12:55,640
Speaker 1: an operator of a Brazilian jiu jitsu studio. So he's

218
00:12:55,720 --> 00:13:02,160
Speaker 1: in all these oddball, dubious industries, a commodities trader that's

219
00:13:02,240 --> 00:13:07,720
Speaker 1: exactly like gambling. And he's got the book making operation

220
00:13:07,880 --> 00:13:13,760
Speaker 1: in San Juan Capistrano, uh And he met Missahara in

221
00:13:13,880 --> 00:13:19,719
Speaker 1: twenty twenty one through a mutual friend. They're in a

222
00:13:19,800 --> 00:13:23,760
Speaker 1: hotel lobby after a San Diego Padres game, miss Zuhara

223
00:13:23,920 --> 00:13:26,679
Speaker 1: was placing a bet on his cell phone with another bookie,

224
00:13:27,640 --> 00:13:31,719
Speaker 1: and the friend overheard miss Ohara placing the bet and

225
00:13:31,920 --> 00:13:34,160
Speaker 1: went over to Baller and said, this is the guy

226
00:13:34,240 --> 00:13:36,760
Speaker 1: you need to be betting with. And so Misahara was

227
00:13:36,840 --> 00:13:41,560
Speaker 1: introduced to Baller. There's also a report that they might

228
00:13:41,640 --> 00:13:46,520
Speaker 1: have met at a San Diego poker game, and Misihara

229
00:13:46,640 --> 00:13:52,240
Speaker 1: started betting on soccer, basketball, football, never baseball, and he

230
00:13:52,360 --> 00:13:57,400
Speaker 1: paid his losses. But Baller never spoke with Otani, but

231
00:13:57,520 --> 00:14:00,920
Speaker 1: hed in mind if other people thought that he was

232
00:14:00,960 --> 00:14:04,719
Speaker 1: taking bets for Otani. When Baler heard Otani's name was

233
00:14:04,760 --> 00:14:07,720
Speaker 1: on one of the wire transfers, he would boast about

234
00:14:07,760 --> 00:14:09,520
Speaker 1: it because he thought it would bring a more business.

235
00:14:10,640 --> 00:14:16,120
Speaker 1: He would tell other gamblers, I'm Otani's guy. In twenty eleven,

236
00:14:16,200 --> 00:14:20,480
Speaker 1: Baller filed for Chapter seven bankruptcy. At the time get this,

237
00:14:20,640 --> 00:14:23,520
Speaker 1: he was a divorced father of four, earning sixty five

238
00:14:23,640 --> 00:14:27,640
Speaker 1: grand working for a trading company. His gambling losses were

239
00:14:27,760 --> 00:14:31,240
Speaker 1: four hundred and twenty five thousand dollars over the two

240
00:14:31,360 --> 00:14:36,280
Speaker 1: years to the Cosmopolitan and Aria casinos, and he'd also

241
00:14:36,400 --> 00:14:40,120
Speaker 1: taken in a half million dollars in loans from three people,

242
00:14:40,880 --> 00:14:44,360
Speaker 1: two of them real estate agents in Orange County. He

243
00:14:44,600 --> 00:14:47,840
Speaker 1: had two million dollars in liabilities between the loans and

244
00:14:47,880 --> 00:14:50,720
Speaker 1: the gambling losses, and he only had eight hundred and

245
00:14:50,760 --> 00:14:55,160
Speaker 1: seventy nine thousand in assets, mostly a home in Aliso Viejo.

246
00:14:58,600 --> 00:15:02,800
Speaker 1: He's also connected to investigation into Wayne Nicks, a minor

247
00:15:02,880 --> 00:15:07,720
Speaker 1: league pitcher former on a book baker whose clients included

248
00:15:07,800 --> 00:15:11,320
Speaker 1: Yasiel Puig. Yashiel Puig was betting with him and he

249
00:15:11,360 --> 00:15:13,400
Speaker 1: got in a whole bunch of trouble. He committed perjury,

250
00:15:13,440 --> 00:15:16,440
Speaker 1: I believe yeah. Nicks pleaded guilty to conspiracy to operate

251
00:15:16,480 --> 00:15:21,760
Speaker 1: an illegal sports gambling business, and there's been another dozen

252
00:15:21,840 --> 00:15:25,040
Speaker 1: indictments in that case. Ballier had a lot of trouble

253
00:15:25,080 --> 00:15:28,000
Speaker 1: with casinos. He was given a one point two million

254
00:15:28,040 --> 00:15:31,360
Speaker 1: dollar credit line by the Foxwoods Resort casino in Connecticut

255
00:15:31,680 --> 00:15:35,480
Speaker 1: after his bankruptcy, but he never paid back that line

256
00:15:35,480 --> 00:15:39,520
Speaker 1: of credit. He got sued in tribal court and the

257
00:15:39,640 --> 00:15:43,640
Speaker 1: tribe is still trying to collect the debt in Orange

258
00:15:43,680 --> 00:15:47,800
Speaker 1: County court. He's been banned by some Las Vegas casinos

259
00:15:48,720 --> 00:15:52,400
Speaker 1: and now he's unwelcome at all the casinos. However, he

260
00:15:52,560 --> 00:15:58,240
Speaker 1: is writing an autobiography. Now that's the guy with a sickness.

261
00:15:58,920 --> 00:16:05,320
Speaker 1: He is brain is diseased. Good lord, more coming up.

262
00:16:06,320 --> 00:16:10,600
Speaker 3: You're listening to John Cobels on demand from KFI AM

263
00:16:10,680 --> 00:16:11,200
Speaker 3: six forty.

264
00:16:11,920 --> 00:16:13,520
Speaker 1: You know, one of the things that we've talked about

265
00:16:13,840 --> 00:16:18,480
Speaker 1: frequently lately too, is is these road diets that they

266
00:16:18,560 --> 00:16:22,200
Speaker 1: want to bring in all over LA and all over California.

267
00:16:22,880 --> 00:16:24,840
Speaker 1: I should expand that it's really all over the nation.

268
00:16:25,120 --> 00:16:30,480
Speaker 1: These these these anti car advocates are trying to squeeze

269
00:16:31,520 --> 00:16:35,800
Speaker 1: all the traffic off the roadways. Nobody should be driving

270
00:16:35,840 --> 00:16:40,520
Speaker 1: in a car. And when you have these progressive crusades,

271
00:16:41,320 --> 00:16:45,600
Speaker 1: there is the reason they give publicly, and usually it's

272
00:16:45,640 --> 00:16:49,320
Speaker 1: an emotional one, right, and then there's the real reason

273
00:16:50,560 --> 00:16:57,360
Speaker 1: that they only occasionally refer to. But it's it's that

274
00:16:57,520 --> 00:17:01,200
Speaker 1: second reason is what drives them. And in this case,

275
00:17:01,400 --> 00:17:05,840
Speaker 1: it's about road diets, eliminating car lanes in favor of

276
00:17:05,960 --> 00:17:08,400
Speaker 1: bike lanes or bus lanes. We were just talking yesterday

277
00:17:08,800 --> 00:17:12,120
Speaker 1: the idiots at the Burbank City Council want to turn

278
00:17:12,240 --> 00:17:16,480
Speaker 1: two miles of Olive Avenue into one lane only in

279
00:17:16,560 --> 00:17:20,560
Speaker 1: each direction for a ridiculous bus lane. There aren't that

280
00:17:20,640 --> 00:17:23,199
Speaker 1: many buses and there's not many people who take the buses,

281
00:17:23,760 --> 00:17:25,960
Speaker 1: and so they want to cut the laneage by fifty percent,

282
00:17:26,040 --> 00:17:30,320
Speaker 1: which would just be a catastrophe for traffic, right, just awful.

283
00:17:30,680 --> 00:17:34,360
Speaker 1: But they're fanatics. And of course, you know they held

284
00:17:34,520 --> 00:17:37,080
Speaker 1: a public meeting. I think it was Tuesday night, but

285
00:17:37,760 --> 00:17:39,320
Speaker 1: you know, most people don't know there's going to be

286
00:17:39,359 --> 00:17:42,040
Speaker 1: a public meeting. It's not well publicized, and most people

287
00:17:42,160 --> 00:17:44,600
Speaker 1: work and have families and they can't go. So you

288
00:17:44,760 --> 00:17:50,320
Speaker 1: have these anti car fanatics who do go and try

289
00:17:50,359 --> 00:17:54,760
Speaker 1: to influence the debate and the CBS news. And I'm

290
00:17:54,760 --> 00:17:56,960
Speaker 1: going to start playing this, but I have a feeling

291
00:17:57,040 --> 00:17:58,320
Speaker 1: this is going to be one I'm going to want

292
00:17:58,320 --> 00:18:03,280
Speaker 1: to stop frequently and analyze along the way. This vision

293
00:18:03,480 --> 00:18:10,200
Speaker 1: zero idea. Garcetti pushed this nine years ago and then

294
00:18:10,240 --> 00:18:12,560
Speaker 1: he shelved it because there were so much blowback. It

295
00:18:12,680 --> 00:18:16,360
Speaker 1: was about remember he brought road diets to Plya del

296
00:18:16,400 --> 00:18:19,879
Speaker 1: Rey and everybody hated him and everyone screamed, and then

297
00:18:19,960 --> 00:18:24,240
Speaker 1: he just stopped with the vision zero nonsense. This is

298
00:18:24,280 --> 00:18:28,560
Speaker 1: an idea that came from Sweden. There is this weird

299
00:18:29,520 --> 00:18:35,919
Speaker 1: obsession that progressive legislators have with Swedish and Norway laws

300
00:18:35,960 --> 00:18:40,119
Speaker 1: that restrict people's freedom, and a lot of these ideas

301
00:18:40,160 --> 00:18:42,080
Speaker 1: don't work, at least they don't work in our culture.

302
00:18:42,960 --> 00:18:48,520
Speaker 1: You know, Sweden and Norway are very lightly populated countries,

303
00:18:48,920 --> 00:18:53,800
Speaker 1: one culture, one ethnicity for the most part, and you

304
00:18:53,920 --> 00:18:58,520
Speaker 1: can't compare it to a city like Los Angeles. But

305
00:18:58,680 --> 00:19:01,720
Speaker 1: beyond that, it's about controlling.

306
00:19:01,880 --> 00:19:02,359
Speaker 2: What we do.

307
00:19:04,480 --> 00:19:06,760
Speaker 1: They don't like that we drive. They don't like that

308
00:19:06,920 --> 00:19:10,160
Speaker 1: we have suburban homes that we drive to. They don't

309
00:19:10,240 --> 00:19:12,720
Speaker 1: like that we have lawns and pools. They don't like

310
00:19:12,800 --> 00:19:16,320
Speaker 1: our cars. They want us to live their way. They

311
00:19:16,359 --> 00:19:19,880
Speaker 1: want us to live in their fifteen minute city where

312
00:19:20,080 --> 00:19:23,440
Speaker 1: our home, our work, and our recreation is all within

313
00:19:23,520 --> 00:19:27,440
Speaker 1: a fifteen minute walk. And we live in small little

314
00:19:27,520 --> 00:19:33,199
Speaker 1: condos in towers, and all our shopping and restaurants are

315
00:19:33,240 --> 00:19:37,080
Speaker 1: down below, and our workspace is either at home or

316
00:19:37,119 --> 00:19:41,439
Speaker 1: in an office down the road. Now, the public reason

317
00:19:41,600 --> 00:19:46,639
Speaker 1: is we have to save lives. There's people dying, and

318
00:19:46,920 --> 00:19:50,080
Speaker 1: even though they implemented Vision zero in many cities, the

319
00:19:50,160 --> 00:19:55,399
Speaker 1: traffic deaths have gone up. And I told you the

320
00:19:55,480 --> 00:19:58,040
Speaker 1: reason the traffic deaths go up in la is there's

321
00:19:58,080 --> 00:20:01,679
Speaker 1: more homeless people, drug addicts, people stumbling around in the streets.

322
00:20:02,480 --> 00:20:04,760
Speaker 1: That's why they go up. And if you look at

323
00:20:04,800 --> 00:20:07,080
Speaker 1: the map, you'll see the little blue dots where people

324
00:20:07,119 --> 00:20:09,440
Speaker 1: have been run over. It's in bad neighborhoods. It's where

325
00:20:09,480 --> 00:20:11,239
Speaker 1: there's a lot of homeless people, where there's a lot

326
00:20:11,280 --> 00:20:14,000
Speaker 1: of drug addicts, and where the non drug addicts and

327
00:20:14,040 --> 00:20:18,440
Speaker 1: the non mental patients are engaging in road races and

328
00:20:18,600 --> 00:20:25,080
Speaker 1: street takeovers and that kind of nonsense. So anyway, let's

329
00:20:25,080 --> 00:20:26,760
Speaker 1: play this clip because it's going to start out with

330
00:20:26,760 --> 00:20:29,440
Speaker 1: an emotional story about a five year old girl killed

331
00:20:29,480 --> 00:20:32,560
Speaker 1: by a driver, and of course it leads into justification

332
00:20:32,800 --> 00:20:37,320
Speaker 1: for Vision zero and these street modifications. So let's start

333
00:20:37,359 --> 00:20:47,080
Speaker 1: playing this CBS New Stephen Stock. She could find the

334
00:20:47,200 --> 00:20:51,440
Speaker 1: silliness and the fun and the joy and so much.

335
00:20:54,560 --> 00:20:59,080
Speaker 4: The singing and joy ended the moment to driver blew

336
00:20:59,200 --> 00:21:02,240
Speaker 4: through this four way stop, running over little five year

337
00:21:02,240 --> 00:21:04,640
Speaker 4: old Alley Hard as she walked her bicycle in front

338
00:21:04,680 --> 00:21:05,160
Speaker 4: of her dad.

339
00:21:05,680 --> 00:21:07,080
Speaker 5: So the last thing I said to her was I

340
00:21:07,160 --> 00:21:09,960
Speaker 5: missed you while you were at school today, and she said,

341
00:21:10,000 --> 00:21:12,720
Speaker 5: I missed you too, mommy, And that was it.

342
00:21:12,960 --> 00:21:15,399
Speaker 1: That was that was the end of life as we

343
00:21:15,480 --> 00:21:18,240
Speaker 1: knew it. Okay, stop it there, and I understand it's

344
00:21:18,240 --> 00:21:21,920
Speaker 1: a terrible tragedy, but you don't take isolated tragedies and

345
00:21:22,000 --> 00:21:26,080
Speaker 1: make policies that restrict the flow of everybody else in

346
00:21:26,160 --> 00:21:30,320
Speaker 1: the city. If you have a little girl run over

347
00:21:30,440 --> 00:21:32,280
Speaker 1: to stop sign, what was the cause of the crash?

348
00:21:32,400 --> 00:21:35,080
Speaker 1: The cause was a guy blowing through the stop sign.

349
00:21:36,200 --> 00:21:38,600
Speaker 1: We put up a stop sign. We have a law

350
00:21:38,640 --> 00:21:41,040
Speaker 1: that says you must stop at the stop sign, or

351
00:21:41,320 --> 00:21:43,639
Speaker 1: you know, you can get points on your license, you

352
00:21:43,720 --> 00:21:47,080
Speaker 1: get fined, you've committed you know, some kind of violation

353
00:21:48,240 --> 00:21:54,160
Speaker 1: that's on the books. Now. I don't know how taking

354
00:21:54,280 --> 00:21:57,359
Speaker 1: lanes away from everybody in a city is going to

355
00:21:57,400 --> 00:22:00,480
Speaker 1: save that girl. If there is some idiot that flies

356
00:22:00,520 --> 00:22:04,640
Speaker 1: through the stop side, you could put up a traffic light.

357
00:22:05,400 --> 00:22:07,960
Speaker 1: But then you have idiots who fly through traffic lights.

358
00:22:09,200 --> 00:22:14,400
Speaker 1: And this is what I resent because there's a there's

359
00:22:14,440 --> 00:22:18,239
Speaker 1: this group Families for Safe Streets. They're trying to end

360
00:22:18,480 --> 00:22:27,000
Speaker 1: traffic violence. It's it's not traffic violence, it's crazy people

361
00:22:27,080 --> 00:22:32,920
Speaker 1: in our society. They exist. They try to look look

362
00:22:32,920 --> 00:22:37,200
Speaker 1: at that, Look at Rebecca Grossman. Okay, she was a

363
00:22:37,320 --> 00:22:44,200
Speaker 1: bag of emotional problems. She's drinking all day, she's taking valiums,

364
00:22:45,680 --> 00:22:48,119
Speaker 1: and she's street racing her boyfriend. And she's a sixty

365
00:22:48,200 --> 00:22:52,879
Speaker 1: year old, wealthy woman. That's a crazy person. There's no

366
00:22:53,040 --> 00:22:57,879
Speaker 1: amount of laws or restrictions that you can implement to

367
00:22:57,960 --> 00:23:01,000
Speaker 1: keep Rebecca Grossman from not It's alad against the law

368
00:23:01,040 --> 00:23:02,960
Speaker 1: to drive drunk, it's against the lad to drive under

369
00:23:03,000 --> 00:23:10,280
Speaker 1: the influence. It already is. There's already laws about allowing

370
00:23:10,480 --> 00:23:14,320
Speaker 1: people to walk through crosswalks, stop at stop side, stop

371
00:23:14,400 --> 00:23:18,960
Speaker 1: at lights. There already is. But you see how they

372
00:23:19,160 --> 00:23:22,359
Speaker 1: do a bait and switch. They want to take away

373
00:23:22,800 --> 00:23:28,680
Speaker 1: you know, traffic lanes, slow down traffic. Well, that doesn't

374
00:23:28,680 --> 00:23:31,640
Speaker 1: address crazy people. That doesn't address all the homeless people

375
00:23:31,920 --> 00:23:33,840
Speaker 1: that stumble into the street and get run over in

376
00:23:33,920 --> 00:23:38,359
Speaker 1: the dark. And I really really makes me crazy how

377
00:23:38,400 --> 00:23:41,840
Speaker 1: they take isolated tragedies and say, okay, that's it, all right,

378
00:23:43,280 --> 00:23:47,560
Speaker 1: Well we're going to be taking away lanes now. You

379
00:23:47,640 --> 00:23:50,200
Speaker 1: can't make the world perfect to a run over in

380
00:23:50,280 --> 00:23:54,560
Speaker 1: Westlake entirely thought Rebecca Grossman. It's individual drivers that cause

381
00:23:54,600 --> 00:23:57,880
Speaker 1: these accidents. It doesn't mean you have to shrink all

382
00:23:57,920 --> 00:24:00,520
Speaker 1: the boulevards from three lanes to two lanes, everything from

383
00:24:00,560 --> 00:24:02,840
Speaker 1: two lanes to one lane, and then say, oh, take

384
00:24:02,880 --> 00:24:04,800
Speaker 1: a bike, take a bus, and you know, Dan, well,

385
00:24:04,840 --> 00:24:07,000
Speaker 1: we're not taking bikes and buses. That's never gonna happen,

386
00:24:08,480 --> 00:24:10,520
Speaker 1: all right, It makes me crazy. We're coming up.

387
00:24:11,520 --> 00:24:15,760
Speaker 3: You're listening to John Cobels on demand from KFI AM

388
00:24:15,840 --> 00:24:16,399
Speaker 3: six forty.

389
00:24:17,240 --> 00:24:19,720
Speaker 1: Our friends over at the Center for Immigration Studies have

390
00:24:19,880 --> 00:24:25,240
Speaker 1: released a new report on the massive amount of illegal

391
00:24:25,280 --> 00:24:27,760
Speaker 1: immigration that's happened in the last few years. You're not

392
00:24:27,800 --> 00:24:32,920
Speaker 1: going to believe these numbers. There are now thirteen point

393
00:24:33,119 --> 00:24:37,520
Speaker 1: seven million illegal immigrants living in America. Thirteen point seven

394
00:24:38,080 --> 00:24:44,720
Speaker 1: million and three point seven million came since Biden took office.

395
00:24:46,680 --> 00:24:50,200
Speaker 1: The total foreign born population, legal and illegal, hit a

396
00:24:50,280 --> 00:24:55,280
Speaker 1: new record of fifty one million in February. That's up

397
00:24:55,359 --> 00:25:01,000
Speaker 1: by six and a half million under Biden. The study

398
00:25:01,119 --> 00:25:05,720
Speaker 1: also found that the population of foreign born living in

399
00:25:05,800 --> 00:25:09,000
Speaker 1: America is increasing by one hundred and seventy two thousand

400
00:25:09,160 --> 00:25:15,600
Speaker 1: a month under Trumpe. It was forty two thousand, under

401
00:25:15,800 --> 00:25:20,480
Speaker 1: Obama sixty eight thousand. Now it's one hundred and seventy

402
00:25:20,520 --> 00:25:23,000
Speaker 1: two thousand. What the hell are you gonna put all

403
00:25:23,040 --> 00:25:26,200
Speaker 1: these people. What are they gonna do? I think it

404
00:25:26,280 --> 00:25:30,440
Speaker 1: to be paid for. The farnborn population is now fifteen

405
00:25:31,040 --> 00:25:36,960
Speaker 1: percent of the US population. Fifteen percent. That's a new record.

406
00:25:38,440 --> 00:25:41,880
Speaker 1: The foreign born share of the US population has tripled

407
00:25:41,960 --> 00:25:46,560
Speaker 1: since nineteen seventy, doubled since nineteen ninety, and up forty

408
00:25:46,600 --> 00:25:51,040
Speaker 1: percent just since the year two thousand and There's a

409
00:25:51,119 --> 00:25:54,480
Speaker 1: migrant caravan of two thousand more people which is headed

410
00:25:54,520 --> 00:25:59,200
Speaker 1: for the Elpaso border area from Chiappus, Mexico. It's organized

411
00:25:59,240 --> 00:26:05,159
Speaker 1: by Mexican activists in Chiappus because they don't want the

412
00:26:05,520 --> 00:26:08,600
Speaker 1: migrants to be taken advantage of by the criminals, drug

413
00:26:08,680 --> 00:26:16,080
Speaker 1: cartel or by uh by the Mexican law enforcement. That

414
00:26:16,320 --> 00:26:25,080
Speaker 1: is unbelievable. Can you imagine that we've taken in We've

415
00:26:25,119 --> 00:26:30,600
Speaker 1: taken in almost four million, four million since Biden took office,

416
00:26:31,960 --> 00:26:34,000
Speaker 1: and he's and he's blaming Trump for it. That's what

417
00:26:34,160 --> 00:26:36,320
Speaker 1: shuck actually is.

418
00:26:37,520 --> 00:26:41,320
Speaker 5: All right, conways here, hey, now, hey, now Phil Hendry

455
00:28:13,480 --> 00:28:19,680

00:28:19,920 --> 00:28:22,400
Speaker 5: Steph ouch are board up? Yeah, because you know he's

457
00:28:22,680 --> 00:28:25,760

458
00:28:25,840 --> 00:28:27,960
Speaker 5: had Vin Scully in a different world, he'd be the

459
00:28:28,000 --> 00:28:30,440
Speaker 5: anti Vinscully. So he said, oh, hey, we're they're playing

460
00:28:30,480 --> 00:28:31,399
Speaker 5: Dodge playing the Cardinals.

461

Speaker 2: Smart.

462
00:28:31,640 --> 00:28:32,920
Speaker 5: Where do you think the Cardinals are from? And he
