If you've 30 00:01:17,480 --> 00:01:20,120 Speaker 3: ever seen not just your house, but all of the 31 00:01:20,160 --> 00:01:23,120 Speaker 3: houses on your street burned down, you're probably dealing with 32 00:01:23,160 --> 00:01:25,520 Speaker 3: some things. And so we explore that aspect and some 33 00:01:25,560 --> 00:01:27,760 Speaker 3: of the industries that have been hit and continue to 34 00:01:27,760 --> 00:01:31,319 Speaker 3: suffer because of what happened back on January seventh of 35 00:01:31,480 --> 00:01:32,399 Speaker 3: twenty twenty five. 36 00:01:32,600 --> 00:01:33,120 Speaker 2: Yeah, I. 37 00:01:34,840 --> 00:01:36,720 Speaker 1: Still my wife and I go there to do a hike. 38 00:01:36,840 --> 00:01:40,480 Speaker 1: There's a canyon that was largely untouched by the fire, 39 00:01:41,080 --> 00:01:45,399 Speaker 1: and it's wasteland still. You know, a few developers, I 40 00:01:45,440 --> 00:01:48,680 Speaker 1: think they greased whoever they had to grease, and they 41 00:01:48,720 --> 00:01:51,640 Speaker 1: are building homes. There's some framing going on, but for 42 00:01:51,720 --> 00:01:52,720 Speaker 1: most people it's. 43 00:01:53,320 --> 00:01:55,520 Speaker 3: It's a nightmare. It was a nightmare when it happened. 44 00:01:55,600 --> 00:01:58,320 Speaker 3: It's been a nightmare since. We had the story last 45 00:01:58,360 --> 00:02:02,200 Speaker 3: week that, according to the real estate company Redfen, a 46 00:02:02,240 --> 00:02:05,680 Speaker 3: lot of investors, a lot of companies are coming in 47 00:02:05,840 --> 00:02:09,440 Speaker 3: private investors are coming in and buying those vacant lots now. 48 00:02:09,480 --> 00:02:11,240 Speaker 5: And there may be a variety of reasons for that. 49 00:02:11,280 --> 00:02:11,800 Speaker 5: It may be. 50 00:02:11,720 --> 00:02:14,200 Speaker 3: People saying, you know what, I don't want to wait, 51 00:02:14,600 --> 00:02:17,440 Speaker 3: or it's been too frustrating to get anything done, so 52 00:02:17,480 --> 00:02:19,920 Speaker 3: we're just going to cash out now. And then what 53 00:02:19,960 --> 00:02:23,280 Speaker 3: does that mean for those neighborhoods. We don't really know. 54 00:02:23,320 --> 00:02:25,200 Speaker 3: I mean, private companies might not be coming in because 55 00:02:25,200 --> 00:02:26,880 Speaker 3: they want to destroy the fabric of the neighborhood. They 56 00:02:26,919 --> 00:02:28,919 Speaker 3: want to they want to make a buck on this, probably, 57 00:02:29,240 --> 00:02:31,440 Speaker 3: But will they wait? Will they will they keep those 58 00:02:31,480 --> 00:02:34,200 Speaker 3: lots vacant while they will because they have the resources 59 00:02:34,200 --> 00:02:38,160 Speaker 3: in the capital to do that. They carry exactly, So 60 00:02:38,280 --> 00:02:41,760 Speaker 3: a lot of concerns still. But when you think back 61 00:02:42,200 --> 00:02:45,320 Speaker 3: to a year ago this week and all of us 62 00:02:45,320 --> 00:02:49,160 Speaker 3: who were here in this building as this was unfolding, 63 00:02:49,360 --> 00:02:52,560 Speaker 3: it started as an interesting news story, one that we've 64 00:02:52,600 --> 00:02:55,120 Speaker 3: been warning about for days because that's what the forecast said, 65 00:02:55,120 --> 00:02:57,400 Speaker 3: that the Santa Ana wins are blowing in. We know 66 00:02:57,440 --> 00:02:59,360 Speaker 3: we have a lot of dry conditions out there, red 67 00:02:59,440 --> 00:03:02,240 Speaker 3: flags waving all over the place, red flag warning. 68 00:03:02,400 --> 00:03:03,959 Speaker 2: Everybody knew except carm Bet. 69 00:03:04,240 --> 00:03:07,040 Speaker 3: Because of the conditions that we found ourselves and we 70 00:03:07,120 --> 00:03:09,239 Speaker 3: knew that this was possible, and then you started to 71 00:03:09,240 --> 00:03:12,400 Speaker 3: see the first first flames. And I pulled a clip 72 00:03:12,440 --> 00:03:15,520 Speaker 3: from your Very program. You were talking to a woman 73 00:03:16,120 --> 00:03:19,200 Speaker 3: who was in the Palisades and at this point people 74 00:03:19,200 --> 00:03:22,440 Speaker 3: were trying to leave the neighborhood and she got stuck 75 00:03:22,480 --> 00:03:24,880 Speaker 3: in a very serious traffic jam and people didn't know 76 00:03:24,880 --> 00:03:25,200 Speaker 3: what to do. 77 00:03:25,480 --> 00:03:26,359 Speaker 5: Let's take a listen to that. 78 00:03:26,480 --> 00:03:29,359 Speaker 4: There's a palm tree on fire. So like we're kind 79 00:03:29,400 --> 00:03:33,239 Speaker 4: of all sitting here in the car and watching. I mean, 80 00:03:34,000 --> 00:03:35,080 Speaker 4: it's like fifty feet away. 81 00:03:35,120 --> 00:03:39,120 Speaker 2: I think, oh, that's really frightening. 82 00:03:40,160 --> 00:03:42,040 Speaker 4: It's really frightening. It's really really. 83 00:03:41,800 --> 00:03:44,000 Speaker 2: Frightening, and you can't get away from. 84 00:03:43,880 --> 00:03:46,960 Speaker 4: It, no, because we we were locked in. It's kind 85 00:03:46,960 --> 00:03:50,480 Speaker 4: of like, you know, we see those terrible movies where 86 00:03:50,480 --> 00:03:53,200 Speaker 4: everybody's running from something and all the cars are stuck. 87 00:03:53,400 --> 00:03:54,240 Speaker 4: That's kind of how it is. 88 00:03:54,360 --> 00:03:59,040 Speaker 1: Yeah, oh my gosh. Yeah, this tree is really it's 89 00:03:59,080 --> 00:04:01,000 Speaker 1: on the corner in the median. 90 00:04:02,680 --> 00:04:07,640 Speaker 4: On Palisades Drive and sunset directly on the corner. There's 91 00:04:08,400 --> 00:04:09,880 Speaker 4: and I don't know if you can hear all the honking. 92 00:04:10,120 --> 00:04:10,520 Speaker 2: I can. 93 00:04:10,720 --> 00:04:14,920 Speaker 1: Yeah, I saw on TV there was a palm tree 94 00:04:14,920 --> 00:04:17,520 Speaker 1: in the medium that was yeah, it's right. 95 00:04:17,440 --> 00:04:20,599 Speaker 4: Now, I just I just don't know, Like people are 96 00:04:20,640 --> 00:04:29,839 Speaker 4: getting out of their cars. Now, what did you say, yes, yes, 97 00:04:33,279 --> 00:04:37,560 Speaker 4: get out of the car, all right, go okay, okay, Oh. 98 00:04:36,640 --> 00:04:37,839 Speaker 1: My god, that's terrifying. 99 00:04:38,080 --> 00:04:39,640 Speaker 5: And a little clip of debbor there at the end. 100 00:04:39,880 --> 00:04:42,600 Speaker 3: And you remember that what you were talking about there 101 00:04:42,720 --> 00:04:44,599 Speaker 3: was the fear of these folks were feeling because they 102 00:04:44,640 --> 00:04:45,239 Speaker 3: were leaving. 103 00:04:45,080 --> 00:04:47,120 Speaker 5: The neighborhood and they got stuck in this jam. 104 00:04:47,640 --> 00:04:50,880 Speaker 3: And at that point it was just a palm tree 105 00:04:50,920 --> 00:04:53,000 Speaker 3: that was It seems so quaint now, like you were like, 106 00:04:53,080 --> 00:04:55,279 Speaker 3: I'm scared that this. Of course you're scared that there's 107 00:04:55,279 --> 00:04:59,080 Speaker 3: a palm tree on fire. But what came after was 108 00:04:59,240 --> 00:05:01,800 Speaker 3: so much and that was really just the beginning of it. 109 00:05:01,880 --> 00:05:04,320 Speaker 1: I remember talking to her a couple hours later after 110 00:05:04,360 --> 00:05:06,240 Speaker 1: she got out of the mess, and she said, that 111 00:05:06,360 --> 00:05:09,040 Speaker 1: was a police officer who was banging on our window 112 00:05:09,120 --> 00:05:11,159 Speaker 1: to get out, and that was her dog in the 113 00:05:11,160 --> 00:05:13,520 Speaker 1: back seat who was alarmed by the police officer. 114 00:05:13,960 --> 00:05:17,160 Speaker 3: When I went over there to the palisades in the 115 00:05:17,160 --> 00:05:20,400 Speaker 3: midst of this, when you were finally able to walk 116 00:05:20,440 --> 00:05:23,640 Speaker 3: through some of the parts of the community, you saw 117 00:05:23,680 --> 00:05:25,960 Speaker 3: those traffic jams and the remnants of it, and these 118 00:05:26,000 --> 00:05:27,960 Speaker 3: burnt out cars that looked like a scene from The 119 00:05:28,000 --> 00:05:31,480 Speaker 3: Walking Dead. It was just absolutely horrifying knowing that people 120 00:05:32,040 --> 00:05:33,320 Speaker 3: ran for their lives. 121 00:05:33,120 --> 00:05:35,200 Speaker 2: And that was only the beginning, only. 122 00:05:35,040 --> 00:05:37,719 Speaker 3: The beginning, and so we'll talk about the beginning, but 123 00:05:37,720 --> 00:05:39,000 Speaker 3: we're not going to spend a lot of time in 124 00:05:39,040 --> 00:05:42,720 Speaker 3: this special talking about that day.

More 178 00:08:33,960 --> 00:08:36,800 Speaker 3: often than not, in California, the trucks that are rented 179 00:08:36,880 --> 00:08:39,920 Speaker 3: for one way for one way trips are on the 180 00:08:39,960 --> 00:08:43,520 Speaker 3: way out, and the trucks that are coming to California 181 00:08:44,080 --> 00:08:46,760 Speaker 3: are far fewer than the ones that are leaving. So 182 00:08:47,000 --> 00:08:49,760 Speaker 3: it's more than half of the U haul rentals that 183 00:08:49,760 --> 00:08:52,800 Speaker 3: are one way trips are departing California rather than coming in. 184 00:08:53,080 --> 00:08:55,600 Speaker 3: And the rate in California is so bad that for 185 00:08:55,679 --> 00:08:59,880 Speaker 3: the sixth year in a row, California is number fifty 186 00:09:00,080 --> 00:09:04,000 Speaker 3: growth on the U Haul Growth Index. Now, I will 187 00:09:04,000 --> 00:09:06,199 Speaker 3: say this is always interesting. We do the story every year. 188 00:09:06,280 --> 00:09:07,760 Speaker 3: It's it's and they do something in the middle of 189 00:09:07,800 --> 00:09:09,160 Speaker 3: the year too, to give you a kind of an 190 00:09:09,200 --> 00:09:11,680 Speaker 3: update on where things look. So it's always kind of fun. 191 00:09:12,240 --> 00:09:14,440 Speaker 3: I need to get around to asking one of these 192 00:09:14,520 --> 00:09:17,640 Speaker 3: U haul guys how Hawaii ranks on this list. It 193 00:09:17,640 --> 00:09:19,400 Speaker 3: comes in at number twenty eight. I'm not sure that 194 00:09:19,559 --> 00:09:21,320 Speaker 3: is a rough ride. 195 00:09:21,920 --> 00:09:22,760 Speaker 2: I don't know why. 196 00:09:23,000 --> 00:09:25,240 Speaker 3: What kind of equipment they're leasing in Hawaii for the 197 00:09:25,240 --> 00:09:26,319 Speaker 3: one way trips. 198 00:09:26,240 --> 00:09:28,079 Speaker 2: I don't I don't think they'd make it much much 199 00:09:28,120 --> 00:09:28,679 Speaker 2: off the coast. 200 00:09:29,400 --> 00:09:31,520 Speaker 5: Yeah, no, no, the water's a little rocky there. It's 201 00:09:31,600 --> 00:09:33,000 Speaker 5: twenty It's ranked twenty eighth. 202 00:09:33,679 --> 00:09:37,800 Speaker 3: Whereas so somebody said, somehow they factor into this data Alaska. 203 00:09:38,400 --> 00:09:41,280 Speaker 3: I guess technically you could drive through Canada. They're at 204 00:09:41,360 --> 00:09:44,720 Speaker 3: number twenty seven. But look, states like California and Illinois 205 00:09:44,760 --> 00:09:46,760 Speaker 3: are on the very bottom. I think your home state 206 00:09:46,840 --> 00:09:49,280 Speaker 3: is New Jersey. Yes, just above those two at number 207 00:09:49,320 --> 00:09:51,320 Speaker 3: forty eight. I left there a long time again, but 208 00:09:51,400 --> 00:09:57,000 Speaker 3: she came to California. I know, well, it's not the 209 00:09:57,040 --> 00:09:57,680 Speaker 3: same place. 210 00:09:59,080 --> 00:10:02,480 Speaker 5: That's exactly right. And I spoke to Chris Trudell. 211 00:10:02,520 --> 00:10:07,520 Speaker 3: He operates a U haul operation here in central California. 212 00:10:07,720 --> 00:10:09,000 Speaker 5: Here's what he said about the report. 213 00:10:09,120 --> 00:10:11,600 Speaker 7: We saw an arrival percentage of forty nine point four 214 00:10:11,640 --> 00:10:14,640 Speaker 7: percent and a departure percentage of fifty point six percent 215 00:10:15,360 --> 00:10:18,280 Speaker 7: growth in those areas for customers to move in California. 216 00:10:18,360 --> 00:10:23,560 Speaker 7: We've seen customers coming from areas such as Oregon, Utah, Nevada, 217 00:10:23,640 --> 00:10:25,439 Speaker 7: but when we see them leaving California, it's in a 218 00:10:25,480 --> 00:10:28,000 Speaker 7: different direction. We see them headed places such as Texas, 219 00:10:28,120 --> 00:10:31,160 Speaker 7: South Carolina, Florida. Cost of living is just so much 220 00:10:31,280 --> 00:10:33,200 Speaker 7: nicer there, and you get more bang for your buck. 221 00:10:33,640 --> 00:10:35,240 Speaker 3: You get more bang for your buck. And what he 222 00:10:35,280 --> 00:10:39,800 Speaker 3: says throughout our conversation is that it's the prices that 223 00:10:39,880 --> 00:10:42,840 Speaker 3: seem to be most to blame for folks, whether it's 224 00:10:43,040 --> 00:10:45,400 Speaker 3: an individual, whether it's a family, or whether it's a 225 00:10:45,440 --> 00:10:47,000 Speaker 3: business that's leaving California. 226 00:10:47,000 --> 00:10:48,120 Speaker 5: Know, it comes down to the cost. 227 00:10:48,480 --> 00:10:51,160 Speaker 1: I'm looking at the U Haul's own article on this, 228 00:10:51,840 --> 00:10:56,320 Speaker 1: and one paragraph says sunshine and warm weather remain appealing 229 00:10:56,320 --> 00:10:59,240 Speaker 1: to the moving public based on the top ten growth states. 230 00:10:59,440 --> 00:11:01,880 Speaker 1: We use to be the king. 231 00:11:01,880 --> 00:11:03,240 Speaker 2: Of sunshine and warm weather. 232 00:11:04,160 --> 00:11:08,840 Speaker 1: I saw that combination is working everywhere else except here. 233 00:11:08,920 --> 00:11:09,160 Speaker 2: Now. 234 00:11:09,280 --> 00:11:12,440 Speaker 3: I saw a post on X just today that said, 235 00:11:13,360 --> 00:11:17,280 Speaker 3: if the sunshine left California, it would be the apocalypse here. 236 00:11:17,600 --> 00:11:20,000 Speaker 3: It's all it has left. Yeah, it is to a 237 00:11:20,000 --> 00:11:22,120 Speaker 3: lot of people because there's we didn't get much of 238 00:11:22,120 --> 00:11:23,320 Speaker 3: that for the last two dreams. 239 00:11:23,400 --> 00:11:24,440 Speaker 5: No, that's right, it's been rough. 240 00:11:24,760 --> 00:11:28,319 Speaker 3: There's an article today in New York Magazine written by 241 00:11:28,400 --> 00:11:32,240 Speaker 3: somebody who left Los Angeles recently, and the headline is, 242 00:11:32,280 --> 00:11:34,280 Speaker 3: all my friends have left Los Angeles. Now, these are 243 00:11:34,320 --> 00:11:37,360 Speaker 3: folks who moved here to pursue creative careers. So they 244 00:11:37,360 --> 00:11:40,040 Speaker 3: are folks who aren't from LA. They've come here, and 245 00:11:40,080 --> 00:11:42,400 Speaker 3: there may be a variety of reasons related to the 246 00:11:42,480 --> 00:11:44,679 Speaker 3: entertainment industry that their careers dried up. 247 00:11:44,800 --> 00:11:46,920 Speaker 2: I saw productions down forty five. 248 00:11:47,080 --> 00:11:50,680 Speaker 3: Exactly, So you've got the signature industry that made Los 249 00:11:50,720 --> 00:11:53,280 Speaker 3: Angeles globally known Hollywood. 250 00:11:53,480 --> 00:11:55,560 Speaker 5: Right, it's in the dumps right now. 251 00:11:56,200 --> 00:12:00,960 Speaker 3: But even for rank and file angelino'seople who just live 252 00:12:01,000 --> 00:12:05,680 Speaker 3: out there in the mock. The prices are outrageous, whether 253 00:12:05,679 --> 00:12:09,280 Speaker 3: it's gas, whether it's home insurance, whether it's rent, and 254 00:12:09,920 --> 00:12:14,600 Speaker 3: the weather is no longer justifying the need to stay. 255 00:12:15,200 --> 00:12:20,720 Speaker 1: Yeah, it says as a political component here clearly sure. 256 00:12:20,920 --> 00:12:23,920 Speaker 1: Seven of the top ten growth states have Republican governors. 257 00:12:24,600 --> 00:12:27,120 Speaker 1: Nine of those ten states went read in the last 258 00:12:27,160 --> 00:12:28,000 Speaker 1: presidential election. 259 00:12:28,120 --> 00:12:28,840 Speaker 2: They went for Trump. 260 00:12:29,600 --> 00:12:34,360 Speaker 1: And then nine of the bottom ten states featured Democratic governors, 261 00:12:34,760 --> 00:12:40,040 Speaker 1: and seven of those ten went for Kamala Harris. So 262 00:12:40,720 --> 00:12:44,240 Speaker 1: we really are dividing and we're fleeing one another, or 263 00:12:44,280 --> 00:12:48,760 Speaker 1: at least the Republican oriented voters are fleeing states because 264 00:12:48,760 --> 00:12:53,800 Speaker 1: the bottom ones California is number one. If we go 265 00:12:53,880 --> 00:12:57,120 Speaker 1: from the bottom up, Illinois, New Jersey, New York, Massachusetts. 266 00:12:57,200 --> 00:13:00,720 Speaker 1: These are the highest tax states, the most left wing governments, 267 00:13:00,840 --> 00:13:05,720 Speaker 1: the most oppressive nanty state rules, and the best states 268 00:13:05,760 --> 00:13:10,160 Speaker 1: for U haul apparently are all in the Southeastern conference Texas, Florida, 269 00:13:10,320 --> 00:13:14,240 Speaker 1: North Carolina, Tennessee, South Carolina. 270 00:13:14,240 --> 00:13:18,040 Speaker 3: But Washington State is number six. Arizona comes in at 271 00:13:18,120 --> 00:13:18,640 Speaker 3: number seven. 272 00:13:18,840 --> 00:13:19,360 Speaker 2: Idaho. 273 00:13:19,840 --> 00:13:21,280 Speaker 5: People are going to Idaho. 274 00:13:21,320 --> 00:13:23,480 Speaker 3: I know that there's been some coverage of various folks 275 00:13:23,480 --> 00:13:26,280 Speaker 3: who have professional lives here in southern California and have 276 00:13:26,360 --> 00:13:32,360 Speaker 3: relocated their regular lives into Idaho, which I don't know 277 00:13:32,400 --> 00:13:35,240 Speaker 3: what that appeal is, but it must be the cost 278 00:13:35,280 --> 00:13:36,439 Speaker 3: of living, the slower pace. 279 00:13:37,280 --> 00:13:41,079 Speaker 1: It's it's beautiful, it's mountainous. It has that driven through 280 00:13:41,080 --> 00:13:43,400 Speaker 1: there a couple of times. It is beautiful. And I 281 00:13:43,440 --> 00:13:45,959 Speaker 1: think the tax rates. I don't know Idaho's tax rate, 282 00:13:46,040 --> 00:13:49,080 Speaker 1: but I do know Florida doesn't have an income tax. 283 00:13:49,160 --> 00:13:53,000 Speaker 1: We have a place there and boys that tempting. Texas 284 00:13:53,040 --> 00:13:56,319 Speaker 1: does not have an income tax, and I think that's 285 00:13:56,440 --> 00:13:58,400 Speaker 1: driving a lot of this. It has to I'm what 286 00:13:58,520 --> 00:14:00,680 Speaker 1: the hell, if you're a successful person, why would you 287 00:14:00,720 --> 00:14:03,440 Speaker 1: want to pay I don't know, eleven twelve thirteen percent 288 00:14:03,800 --> 00:14:06,040 Speaker 1: to Gavin Newsom when you see. 289 00:14:07,040 --> 00:14:09,080 Speaker 3: Exactly when you see the I think that's what's starting 290 00:14:09,080 --> 00:14:12,080 Speaker 3: to irritate folks, is what even folks who are like, yeah, 291 00:14:12,160 --> 00:14:14,880 Speaker 3: let's let's let's tax this, let's tax that, let's put 292 00:14:14,880 --> 00:14:17,200 Speaker 3: the money together and let's solve these problems, the problems 293 00:14:17,200 --> 00:14:19,200 Speaker 3: aren't being solved. On the other hand, I mean, I 294 00:14:19,960 --> 00:14:22,640 Speaker 3: live like the worst part of the city. 295 00:14:22,400 --> 00:14:24,120 Speaker 5: Right I live in downtown. I don't understand it. 296 00:14:24,720 --> 00:14:27,280 Speaker 3: But if somebody said, hey, we can replicate that loth 297 00:14:27,360 --> 00:14:31,040 Speaker 3: that you love in Boise and it'll cost a third 298 00:14:31,080 --> 00:14:32,720 Speaker 3: of what you're paying and we'll get you a radio 299 00:14:32,800 --> 00:14:38,360 Speaker 3: gig on k Idaho, I'm not taking that job, you know. 300 00:14:38,640 --> 00:14:40,880 Speaker 5: So it comes down to a lot of personal preference. 301 00:14:40,920 --> 00:14:43,960 Speaker 1: I think it does. I think a lot of people. 302 00:14:44,480 --> 00:14:47,800 Speaker 1: I've got friends who do well and they have perfected 303 00:14:47,800 --> 00:14:51,200 Speaker 1: the art of living six months in a day out 304 00:14:51,240 --> 00:14:55,480 Speaker 1: of here, and their tax bill goes from double digits 305 00:14:55,480 --> 00:14:59,200 Speaker 1: to zero, and it comes down to they feel like idiots. Really, 306 00:14:59,240 --> 00:15:02,600 Speaker 1: they feel insultant. It's like, what's wrong with we? Why 307 00:15:02,640 --> 00:15:06,080 Speaker 1: am I given ten percent? To Gavin Newsom I heard recently. 308 00:15:06,240 --> 00:15:07,720 Speaker 1: You might know more about this than I because of 309 00:15:07,760 --> 00:15:11,200 Speaker 1: where you're from. But there are folks who probably live 310 00:15:11,240 --> 00:15:14,360 Speaker 1: in New York but live quotation marks in Florida for 311 00:15:14,440 --> 00:15:17,800 Speaker 1: tax busess and they will hang out on the Jersey 312 00:15:17,880 --> 00:15:21,520 Speaker 1: side of a bridge there for an extra day just 313 00:15:21,600 --> 00:15:24,880 Speaker 1: so that they don't clock too many hours in New 314 00:15:24,960 --> 00:15:26,880 Speaker 1: York State, where they have to pay more taxes. I 315 00:15:26,960 --> 00:15:30,320 Speaker 1: lived in New York with my wife for a year 316 00:15:30,720 --> 00:15:35,520 Speaker 1: and I performed my own type of tax evasion because 317 00:15:35,760 --> 00:15:38,240 Speaker 1: I was living in New York, but I was working 318 00:15:38,240 --> 00:15:40,240 Speaker 1: in New Jersey at a radio station, and I grew 319 00:15:40,280 --> 00:15:42,840 Speaker 1: up in Jersey, so my parents were still around and 320 00:15:43,160 --> 00:15:46,520 Speaker 1: that was my legal address. Because New York City had 321 00:15:46,800 --> 00:15:49,560 Speaker 1: an income tax on top of the state income tax, 322 00:15:49,640 --> 00:15:52,120 Speaker 1: on top of the federal income tax, and I forget 323 00:15:52,120 --> 00:15:54,720 Speaker 1: what it is. It was in the low single digits, 324 00:15:54,840 --> 00:15:56,880 Speaker 1: but you know, it's like, no, I'm not paying that. 325 00:15:57,000 --> 00:15:59,920 Speaker 1: So I was living with my parents on paper all 326 00:16:00,440 --> 00:16:01,640 Speaker 1: until I'm thirty years old. 327 00:16:02,040 --> 00:16:04,000 Speaker 5: You know, the irs can still come after you for now. 328 00:16:04,120 --> 00:16:04,880 Speaker 2: I don't think they can't. 329 00:16:04,880 --> 00:16:05,240 Speaker 5: I don't know. 330 00:16:05,840 --> 00:16:07,960 Speaker 3: I don't think there's a statute of limitations on tax 331 00:16:08,080 --> 00:16:12,920 Speaker 3: law unfortunately. But look, I can say, as somebody who 332 00:16:13,000 --> 00:16:15,440 Speaker 3: is a transplant here, La is a place that attracts 333 00:16:15,440 --> 00:16:17,600 Speaker 3: a lot of transplants. This is one of those one 334 00:16:17,640 --> 00:16:20,120 Speaker 3: of the few cities in America where there are certain 335 00:16:20,200 --> 00:16:22,520 Speaker 3: types of jobs that you have to come to La 336 00:16:22,640 --> 00:16:23,080 Speaker 3: to pursue. 337 00:16:23,120 --> 00:16:25,200 Speaker 5: Most of them are creative.

I 395 00:19:15,560 --> 00:19:18,040 Speaker 1: just found out that two city council people went to 396 00:19:18,200 --> 00:19:22,840 Speaker 1: Mom Donnie's inauguration. They don't believe in private property. It's 397 00:19:22,840 --> 00:19:24,399 Speaker 1: even worse than that, and I'll tell you about it 398 00:19:24,440 --> 00:19:28,760 Speaker 1: coming up in just a minute. The Voter Idea initiative 399 00:19:30,240 --> 00:19:34,879 Speaker 1: has been backed by Carl Demyo and his organization Reformed California, 400 00:19:35,800 --> 00:19:39,840 Speaker 1: and he needed a more than a million signatures, and 401 00:19:40,359 --> 00:19:43,280 Speaker 1: it looks like they're past that point. Let's let's find 402 00:19:43,280 --> 00:19:45,879 Speaker 1: out to get this sun the ballot requiring voter ID 403 00:19:46,000 --> 00:19:50,119 Speaker 1: for elections in this state. Carl, how are you well? 404 00:19:50,800 --> 00:19:54,760 Speaker 8: Twenty twenty five was pretty exhausting, But we love the 405 00:19:54,800 --> 00:19:57,600 Speaker 8: fact that we're at a million signatures on California voter 406 00:19:57,680 --> 00:20:01,480 Speaker 8: ID and we're not done yet. A million is good. 407 00:20:01,680 --> 00:20:04,920 Speaker 8: We only need eight hundred and seventy four thousand valid signatures. 408 00:20:05,320 --> 00:20:08,680 Speaker 8: We have a million raw signatures, and I don't leave 409 00:20:08,720 --> 00:20:14,480 Speaker 8: anything to chance, particularly with Democrats in control of reviewing signatures. 410 00:20:15,000 --> 00:20:17,240 Speaker 8: So we did an internal audit and we have a 411 00:20:17,280 --> 00:20:20,680 Speaker 8: validity rate of eighty eight percent amongst our volunteers seventy 412 00:20:20,680 --> 00:20:25,000 Speaker 8: five percent when you add in the paid signatures. And 413 00:20:25,119 --> 00:20:29,280 Speaker 8: so we believe that just for an insurance policy, even 414 00:20:29,320 --> 00:20:32,000 Speaker 8: though we're at a million, we should get another two 415 00:20:32,080 --> 00:20:35,560 Speaker 8: hundred thousand signatures, just to make sure that the Democrats 416 00:20:35,640 --> 00:20:38,239 Speaker 8: can't disqualify a bunch of signatures and keep us off 417 00:20:38,240 --> 00:20:41,359 Speaker 8: the ballot. So I'm asking all of our volunteers to 418 00:20:41,480 --> 00:20:44,440 Speaker 8: continue to collect signatures on the voter ID initiative. Yes, 419 00:20:44,480 --> 00:20:46,240 Speaker 8: we got a million, but now we want to do 420 00:20:46,359 --> 00:20:50,359 Speaker 8: another two hundred thousand just for added measure for confidence. 421 00:20:51,320 --> 00:20:52,960 Speaker 8: And so if you want to get a copy of 422 00:20:53,000 --> 00:20:56,240 Speaker 8: the petition, you can go to the website voter ID 423 00:20:56,680 --> 00:21:00,639 Speaker 8: Initiative dot com and you can sign it if you 424 00:21:00,720 --> 00:21:03,000 Speaker 8: just want to sign it yourself. If you haven't already signed, 425 00:21:03,080 --> 00:21:06,960 Speaker 8: we would appreciate you downloading, printing, and mailing back your 426 00:21:07,000 --> 00:21:11,000 Speaker 8: petition signed with a pen, or request a signature kit 427 00:21:11,080 --> 00:21:13,640 Speaker 8: be sent to you with the long form to collect 428 00:21:13,680 --> 00:21:16,879 Speaker 8: signatures from friends and family. We are getting everyone until 429 00:21:16,880 --> 00:21:21,280 Speaker 8: February sixth to get the final signatures back, and I 430 00:21:21,320 --> 00:21:24,280 Speaker 8: am very confident we will be on the ballot in 431 00:21:24,320 --> 00:21:27,639 Speaker 8: November twenty twenty six for the California Voter ID initiative, 432 00:21:27,760 --> 00:21:30,640 Speaker 8: and it's going to be a game changer in California politics. 433 00:21:30,680 --> 00:21:33,919 Speaker 8: We'd clean up the voter roles, do citizenship verification and 434 00:21:34,040 --> 00:21:37,159 Speaker 8: voter ID, which is everything that we actually require with 435 00:21:37,240 --> 00:21:40,000 Speaker 8: my initiative. It's going to be a game changer to 436 00:21:40,080 --> 00:21:42,000 Speaker 8: restore the integrity of our elections. 437 00:21:42,359 --> 00:21:46,840 Speaker 1: Yeah, this will be huge. You're going to do citizenship verification. 438 00:21:48,160 --> 00:21:48,440 Speaker 2: Yes. 439 00:21:48,800 --> 00:21:51,240 Speaker 8: There are three main components of my initiative. It's a 440 00:21:51,240 --> 00:21:55,840 Speaker 8: state constitutional amendment that requires when someone registers to vote 441 00:21:56,400 --> 00:22:00,800 Speaker 8: that each local county office will be required to audit 442 00:22:01,400 --> 00:22:05,439 Speaker 8: their roles to do citizenship verification before people are put 443 00:22:05,480 --> 00:22:11,080 Speaker 8: on the ballots. Second, the state auditor will randomly select 444 00:22:12,359 --> 00:22:16,439 Speaker 8: voter registrations in each county and do an integrity audit 445 00:22:16,720 --> 00:22:20,600 Speaker 8: to make sure that only eligible, proper people are registered 446 00:22:20,600 --> 00:22:23,440 Speaker 8: to vote and that the voter lists are being properly maintained. 447 00:22:23,880 --> 00:22:27,240 Speaker 8: And then, third, when people cast a ballot, they will 448 00:22:27,280 --> 00:22:31,119 Speaker 8: have to show ID either in person or by mail. 449 00:22:31,280 --> 00:22:35,080 Speaker 8: They have to select a government document and give the 450 00:22:35,240 --> 00:22:39,119 Speaker 8: last four digits of that government ID to vote by mail. 451 00:22:39,320 --> 00:22:41,880 Speaker 8: So we still allow the convenience of voting by mail, 452 00:22:41,920 --> 00:22:44,960 Speaker 8: even though I don't like it. The voters in California 453 00:22:45,000 --> 00:22:48,199 Speaker 8: do like mail in ballots, but we do require that 454 00:22:48,240 --> 00:22:50,800 Speaker 8: they verify who they are. And so we believe that 455 00:22:50,840 --> 00:22:55,040 Speaker 8: this is a common sense initiative that Democrats and Republicans 456 00:22:55,160 --> 00:22:59,760 Speaker 8: can both support, and we believe we can pass it 457 00:22:59,760 --> 00:23:00,400 Speaker 8: in the November. 458 00:23:01,400 --> 00:23:06,679 Speaker 1: All right, and go through how people can sign these petitions. 459 00:23:06,880 --> 00:23:10,000 Speaker 8: If you go to voter ID Initiative dot com, you 460 00:23:10,000 --> 00:23:13,639 Speaker 8: can get the California Voter ID Initiative to sign. Also, 461 00:23:13,680 --> 00:23:16,400 Speaker 8: we're helping the Howard Jarvis Taxpirs Association with the Save 462 00:23:16,480 --> 00:23:21,680 Speaker 8: Prop thirteen initiative. Now you can go to opposetax Hikes 463 00:23:21,920 --> 00:23:26,280 Speaker 8: dot oorg to sign that initiative, and of course on 464 00:23:26,320 --> 00:23:28,640 Speaker 8: both websites you can ship at a contribution to help 465 00:23:28,720 --> 00:23:31,280 Speaker 8: us cover the hard costs of this signature drive. 466 00:23:32,240 --> 00:23:35,040 Speaker 2: All right, Kyle, Well, just one more thing. You know. 467 00:23:35,119 --> 00:23:36,600 Speaker 2: Tim Waltz is in the news today. 468 00:23:36,600 --> 00:23:39,280 Speaker 1: He's dropping out a running for reelection because of the 469 00:23:39,320 --> 00:23:43,960 Speaker 1: massive scandal involving the Somalian community and all those welfare programs, 470 00:23:43,960 --> 00:23:47,520 Speaker 1: all that fraud nine ten billion dollars worth. You know, 471 00:23:47,680 --> 00:23:50,919 Speaker 1: I know that there's been at least ten times that 472 00:23:51,160 --> 00:23:55,000 Speaker 1: under Gavin Newsom. When is he going to be forced 473 00:23:55,119 --> 00:23:56,159 Speaker 1: to account for all this? 474 00:23:57,520 --> 00:24:00,800 Speaker 8: Well, we need to have a exactly what happened to 475 00:24:00,800 --> 00:24:05,280 Speaker 8: Tim Waltz happened here in California. And that's why we've 476 00:24:05,280 --> 00:24:09,080 Speaker 8: been focusing at Reform California, on Dojing California, and we've 477 00:24:09,119 --> 00:24:11,879 Speaker 8: uncovered a lot, but there's so much more. So if 478 00:24:11,920 --> 00:24:15,200 Speaker 8: you thought things were bad in Minnesota, remember how Minnesota 479 00:24:15,280 --> 00:24:18,720 Speaker 8: did their fraud. They copied what was already going on 480 00:24:19,040 --> 00:24:21,679 Speaker 8: here in California. And so that's what we need to do, 481 00:24:21,760 --> 00:24:24,680 Speaker 8: is we need to make sure that we get citizen 482 00:24:24,720 --> 00:24:27,640 Speaker 8: activists to kick the tires, to show up and look 483 00:24:27,680 --> 00:24:32,000 Speaker 8: at contracts and grantees where the money's going, because the 484 00:24:32,000 --> 00:24:34,840 Speaker 8: fraud in California is one hundred times worse than what 485 00:24:34,880 --> 00:24:35,919 Speaker 8: you're seeing in Minnesota. 486 00:24:36,920 --> 00:24:39,879 Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, you know, just the obvious stuff. You know, 487 00:24:39,920 --> 00:24:43,359 Speaker 1: the seventeen eighteen million dollars for high speed rail, the 488 00:24:43,400 --> 00:24:47,800 Speaker 1: twenty four billion excuse me, twenty four billion of NEWSOM 489 00:24:47,880 --> 00:24:52,520 Speaker 1: admitting homeless money unaccounted for. You got thirty two billion 490 00:24:52,680 --> 00:24:56,400 Speaker 1: and unemployment money unaccounted for from COVID. I mean, that's 491 00:24:56,400 --> 00:25:00,720 Speaker 1: about seventy four billion or so right there. And that's 492 00:25:00,920 --> 00:25:03,880 Speaker 1: just the biggest headlines and all that has been reported 493 00:25:03,920 --> 00:25:06,680 Speaker 1: for years and it's common, it's gone and there was 494 00:25:06,720 --> 00:25:08,160 Speaker 1: no repercussions for anyone. 495 00:25:09,119 --> 00:25:11,359 Speaker 8: That's right. It's just the tip of the iceberg. And 496 00:25:11,440 --> 00:25:13,679 Speaker 8: so we need to kick the tires. We need to 497 00:25:13,720 --> 00:25:17,040 Speaker 8: audit every element of California state and local government. And 498 00:25:17,080 --> 00:25:19,440 Speaker 8: when they talk about tax increases, tell them hell to 499 00:25:19,560 --> 00:25:22,480 Speaker 8: they no pick a finger. No way in hell should 500 00:25:22,480 --> 00:25:24,959 Speaker 8: we be giving them more money until we can account 501 00:25:25,040 --> 00:25:26,600 Speaker 8: for the money we've already given them. 502 00:25:27,119 --> 00:25:29,720 Speaker 1: All right, Carl Demyel, thank you for coming on. Good work, 503 00:25:29,920 --> 00:25:32,880 Speaker 1: as always, excellent work. There's nobody else in the state 504 00:25:32,880 --> 00:25:35,200 Speaker 1: who was able to get a million signatures for something 505 00:25:35,760 --> 00:25:40,840 Speaker 1: simple like voter ID, which that's another that's like ninety 506 00:25:40,840 --> 00:25:42,840 Speaker 1: percent of the countries in favor of voter ID. 507 00:25:43,760 --> 00:25:45,440 Speaker 2: And why do you think that, Why do you. 508 00:25:45,520 --> 00:25:50,560 Speaker 1: Think the elections are so slopsided in California considering the 509 00:25:50,600 --> 00:25:55,600 Speaker 1: way the state is is it really that appealing to 510 00:25:55,720 --> 00:25:58,840 Speaker 1: vote for these progressive Democrats over and over again. Are 511 00:25:58,880 --> 00:26:02,040 Speaker 1: people really doing that? Just doesn't make any sense to me. 512 00:26:02,520 --> 00:26:06,639 Speaker 1: The state is a sesspool, it's a sore in many ways, 513 00:26:06,800 --> 00:26:10,879 Speaker 1: and so are people really voting for the same for 514 00:26:11,000 --> 00:26:14,960 Speaker 1: the same criminals over and over again.

You you got to hear this clip of her. 523 00:26:48,200 --> 00:26:51,200 Speaker 1: I just haven't heard anybody talk like this since I 524 00:26:51,760 --> 00:26:54,879 Speaker 1: don't know, like fifty years ago, when there was a 525 00:26:55,000 --> 00:26:59,239 Speaker 1: surge towards revolutionary communism back in the early seventies. There 526 00:26:59,240 --> 00:27:04,080 Speaker 1: were all these weird protest groups and underground groups, and they, 527 00:27:04,560 --> 00:27:07,240 Speaker 1: you know, they they well, we'll get into that coming up, 528 00:27:07,440 --> 00:27:09,359 Speaker 1: but it's definitely back in New York. 529 00:27:10,280 --> 00:27:14,600 Speaker 6: You're listening to John cobelts on demand from KFI AM 530 00:27:14,640 --> 00:27:15,440 Speaker 6: six forty. 531 00:27:15,960 --> 00:27:19,000 Speaker 1: John Cobelt's Show.

And you know, he's 543 00:27:57,720 --> 00:28:01,639 Speaker 1: not hiding it. He's hiring a lot of communists to 544 00:28:01,720 --> 00:28:06,880 Speaker 1: be in his administration. He's not kidding around. These are 545 00:28:07,119 --> 00:28:13,240 Speaker 1: true believers. This is a weird insurgency. And I understand 546 00:28:13,280 --> 00:28:17,119 Speaker 1: that a couple of a couple of Los Angeles politicians 547 00:28:17,119 --> 00:28:20,720 Speaker 1: and the city Council attended his inauguration, and that would 548 00:28:20,720 --> 00:28:25,640 Speaker 1: be the president of the City Council and also Unices 549 00:28:25,680 --> 00:28:32,760 Speaker 1: Hernandez and what's what's a city council president's name, drawing 550 00:28:32,760 --> 00:28:34,399 Speaker 1: a blank on it right now because he's such a 551 00:28:34,520 --> 00:28:36,920 Speaker 1: Marquise Harris Dawson, that's right. 552 00:28:37,080 --> 00:28:38,480 Speaker 5: I almost said Marquis so I was. 553 00:28:38,560 --> 00:28:40,880 Speaker 1: I had to think about it. It's Marquis. Yeah, he's 554 00:28:40,920 --> 00:28:44,560 Speaker 1: such a non entity who's completely absent during the fire. 555 00:28:44,800 --> 00:28:48,680 Speaker 1: He's a real zero of a guy. And Unicus Hernandez 556 00:28:48,920 --> 00:28:51,640 Speaker 1: is just a looney bag. And the two of them, yeah, 557 00:28:51,640 --> 00:28:53,720 Speaker 1: they flew to New York to celebrate the communists coming 558 00:28:53,720 --> 00:28:56,520 Speaker 1: in because they're communists themselves. It's the same party. It's 559 00:28:56,560 --> 00:29:00,960 Speaker 1: the Democratic Socialists of America DSA. And that is a 560 00:29:01,000 --> 00:29:05,640 Speaker 1: fancy name for modern day communism, which keeps coming back 561 00:29:06,520 --> 00:29:09,560 Speaker 1: and some people keep falling for it, usually a young 562 00:29:09,640 --> 00:29:16,800 Speaker 1: generation that went to a school where they didn't cover history. 563 00:29:16,840 --> 00:29:19,720 Speaker 1: I don't think history has covered much at all. And communism, 564 00:29:19,920 --> 00:29:23,560 Speaker 1: socialism and all the cousins massive failures, ends up with 565 00:29:23,600 --> 00:29:26,680 Speaker 1: a lot of people suffering, ends up with destroyed economies. 566 00:29:27,080 --> 00:29:31,240 Speaker 1: It is a absolutely unworkable system and has been proven 567 00:29:31,320 --> 00:29:36,080 Speaker 1: to be unworkable many many times for over one hundred years. 568 00:29:36,640 --> 00:29:41,640 Speaker 1: But that didn't stop the idiots in New York from 569 00:29:41,680 --> 00:29:46,600 Speaker 1: electing Mom Donnie so he's got this woman named se 570 00:29:46,600 --> 00:29:51,000 Speaker 1: A Weaver, director of the City Office to Protect Tenants, 571 00:29:52,520 --> 00:29:55,480 Speaker 1: and over the years she made a lot of statements 572 00:29:55,720 --> 00:30:00,520 Speaker 1: urging her followers to elect more communists. She put this 573 00:30:00,640 --> 00:30:07,080 Speaker 1: in her posts on her x account formerly Twitter. Now 574 00:30:07,120 --> 00:30:10,200 Speaker 1: she had deleted this account at some point, but some 575 00:30:10,320 --> 00:30:14,120 Speaker 1: Internet investigators uncovered it. Here's an example of some of 576 00:30:14,200 --> 00:30:15,640 Speaker 1: the things that she posted. 577 00:30:16,200 --> 00:30:19,520 Speaker 9: I think the reality though, I'm. 578 00:30:19,400 --> 00:30:21,440 Speaker 2: Going to read some of the posts and then I'm 579 00:30:21,440 --> 00:30:23,600 Speaker 2: gonna play the clip. That's okay. 580 00:30:24,000 --> 00:30:30,000 Speaker 1: Seize private property, she once wrote back in the twenty tens. 581 00:30:30,080 --> 00:30:36,560 Speaker 1: And she also said private property, including any kind of 582 00:30:37,280 --> 00:30:41,280 Speaker 1: any kind of and especially home ownership, is a weapon 583 00:30:41,320 --> 00:30:43,400 Speaker 1: of white supremacy. 584 00:30:44,080 --> 00:30:46,200 Speaker 2: Yeah. White. 585 00:30:46,280 --> 00:30:50,400 Speaker 1: That was August to twenty nineteen. So you own a home, 586 00:30:51,800 --> 00:30:55,040 Speaker 1: your home is a weapon of white supremacy, which makes 587 00:30:55,080 --> 00:30:57,680 Speaker 1: you a white supremacist. Now, by the way, this is 588 00:30:57,720 --> 00:31:03,840 Speaker 1: a red haired white woman saying this during the George 589 00:31:04,040 --> 00:31:09,920 Speaker 1: Floyd hysteria. The people are just people. Sorry, the police 590 00:31:10,040 --> 00:31:14,280 Speaker 1: are just people. The state sanctions to murder with immunity. 591 00:31:16,640 --> 00:31:20,400 Speaker 1: Remember the Democratic Socialists of America. Her name is Cea Weaver, 592 00:31:20,800 --> 00:31:25,600 Speaker 1: former campaign coordinator Housing Justice for All. She was a 593 00:31:25,600 --> 00:31:29,880 Speaker 1: advisor of the Mom Donnie campaign and now she is 594 00:31:29,920 --> 00:31:33,520 Speaker 1: in charge of the Office to Protect Tenants and they 595 00:31:33,560 --> 00:31:37,880 Speaker 1: found this clip, this audio video clip from twenty eighteen. 596 00:31:38,400 --> 00:31:42,280 Speaker 9: I think the reality is is that for centuries we've 597 00:31:42,320 --> 00:31:46,600 Speaker 9: really treated property as an individualized good and not a 598 00:31:46,600 --> 00:31:50,360 Speaker 9: collective good. And we are going to and transitioning to 599 00:31:50,480 --> 00:31:54,680 Speaker 9: treating it as a collective good and towards a model 600 00:31:54,680 --> 00:31:58,160 Speaker 9: of shared equity will require that we think about it 601 00:31:58,200 --> 00:32:02,800 Speaker 9: differently and it will meet in that family is especially 602 00:32:02,800 --> 00:32:05,760 Speaker 9: white families, but some POT families to her homeowners as well, 603 00:32:07,080 --> 00:32:10,840 Speaker 9: are going to have a different relationship to property than 604 00:32:11,040 --> 00:32:12,760 Speaker 9: than the one that we currently have. 605 00:32:13,400 --> 00:32:18,720 Speaker 1: White families, including some, she said, POC families. That's people 606 00:32:18,760 --> 00:32:21,480 Speaker 1: of color. We're gonna have a wait, she's gonna she 607 00:32:21,480 --> 00:32:26,400 Speaker 1: wants to seize our private property and make it everybody's property, 608 00:32:26,520 --> 00:32:29,760 Speaker 1: property of the collective. Do you want to share your house? 609 00:32:30,160 --> 00:32:31,640 Speaker 5: I don't. Do you want to share yours? 610 00:32:31,640 --> 00:32:31,800 Speaker 1: No? 611 00:32:31,840 --> 00:32:32,640 Speaker 2: I don't at all. 612 00:32:32,760 --> 00:32:36,640 Speaker 1: I've worked hard. But that makes us symbols of white supremacy, 613 00:32:36,640 --> 00:32:37,720 Speaker 1: you realize, But what. 614 00:32:37,640 --> 00:32:38,480 Speaker 5: If you're not white? 615 00:32:39,720 --> 00:32:42,640 Speaker 2: She said, even non white? Okay, So that's my point, 616 00:32:42,680 --> 00:32:44,640 Speaker 2: and how could you that makes. 617 00:32:44,360 --> 00:32:47,400 Speaker 1: Sense even no. In her mind, even black people are 618 00:32:47,440 --> 00:32:50,120 Speaker 1: symbols of white supremacy. In fact, that's what the La 619 00:32:50,200 --> 00:32:52,640 Speaker 1: Times called Larry Elder years ago, and he was running 620 00:32:52,640 --> 00:32:55,640 Speaker 1: for governor. Remember the black face of white supremacy. So 621 00:32:55,880 --> 00:32:58,360 Speaker 1: you know, white supremacy is so awful that even black 622 00:32:58,400 --> 00:33:01,320 Speaker 1: people fall for it. And now not only white people 623 00:33:01,360 --> 00:33:03,600 Speaker 1: can't have a private home. Black people can't have a 624 00:33:03,600 --> 00:33:06,800 Speaker 1: private home. Nobody can have a private home. And she 625 00:33:06,920 --> 00:33:13,320 Speaker 1: believes this, and there's a whole collection of them now 626 00:33:13,680 --> 00:33:15,400 Speaker 1: in Mom Donnie's administration. 627 00:33:15,640 --> 00:33:16,600 Speaker 2: He believes this. 628 00:33:16,960 --> 00:33:19,640 Speaker 1: So she doesn't own a house. I don't know. I 629 00:33:19,720 --> 00:33:21,120 Speaker 1: never heard of her until this morning. 630 00:33:22,000 --> 00:33:24,000 Speaker 5: I'd like to find out if she ever owned a house. 631 00:33:24,440 --> 00:33:27,080 Speaker 1: I think they're going to be doing a lot of investigations. 632 00:33:29,720 --> 00:33:35,440 Speaker 1: She was a lobbyist and she was involved in lobbying 633 00:33:35,480 --> 00:33:41,880 Speaker 1: for rent stabilization laws in New York State. And it 634 00:33:42,080 --> 00:33:45,880 Speaker 1: is completely insane. What they want to do is they 635 00:33:45,920 --> 00:33:50,280 Speaker 1: want to freeze rent, stabilize rents, whatever in euphemism they have. 636 00:33:51,040 --> 00:33:54,200 Speaker 1: And what's going to happen then is those buildings will 637 00:33:54,240 --> 00:33:58,280 Speaker 1: not be maintained, they will start to rot or be 638 00:33:58,440 --> 00:34:01,840 Speaker 1: abandoned by the landlords because if the landlords can't raise 639 00:34:02,080 --> 00:34:04,800 Speaker 1: the rents, then they're not going to do maintenance and 640 00:34:04,880 --> 00:34:08,399 Speaker 1: repairs on the buildings. And they're gonna have to They're 641 00:34:08,400 --> 00:34:11,440 Speaker 1: gonna have to just get out and then and which is. 642 00:34:11,440 --> 00:34:12,120 Speaker 2: What they want. 643 00:34:12,200 --> 00:34:15,040 Speaker 1: That's what Mam Donnie and this sea of Weaver want, 644 00:34:15,320 --> 00:34:18,200 Speaker 1: because then the state will take over the apartments, they'll 645 00:34:18,239 --> 00:34:22,160 Speaker 1: own them, the collective will own them, and nobody will 646 00:34:22,200 --> 00:34:23,240 Speaker 1: have private property. 647 00:34:23,920 --> 00:34:24,480 Speaker 2: There'll be no. 648 00:34:24,480 --> 00:34:30,440 Speaker 1: More condos, there will be no more private homes. And 649 00:34:30,719 --> 00:34:36,440 Speaker 1: he is doing what he ran on. He was serious. 650 00:34:36,560 --> 00:34:38,840 Speaker 1: I mean the DSA, and you could look them up online. 651 00:34:38,880 --> 00:34:41,800 Speaker 1: They've been around in LA. They own four or five 652 00:34:42,000 --> 00:34:45,080 Speaker 1: council people I know force for sure in the party. 653 00:34:45,360 --> 00:34:48,080 Speaker 1: And there are several who are maybe not members of 654 00:34:48,120 --> 00:34:51,040 Speaker 1: the party, but their policies are the same. And and 655 00:34:51,040 --> 00:34:54,120 Speaker 1: and uh Marquise Harris Dawson, the city council president, is 656 00:34:54,160 --> 00:34:54,640 Speaker 1: one of them. 657 00:34:55,360 --> 00:34:57,960 Speaker 2: Now you're turning cities over to communists. 658 00:34:57,520 --> 00:35:02,720 Speaker 1: Where we're not allowed to own private property. Karen Bath 659 00:35:03,560 --> 00:35:09,680 Speaker 1: is one of them. That's why she idolized. She idolized 660 00:35:09,719 --> 00:35:15,000 Speaker 1: Fidel Castro when she was in her twenties. She made 661 00:35:15,880 --> 00:35:21,080 Speaker 1: many many visits. I loved watching Castro speak. She has 662 00:35:21,239 --> 00:35:25,839 Speaker 1: said that she was just overwhelmed by his charisma, mesmerized 663 00:35:25,880 --> 00:35:33,920 Speaker 1: by his speaking ability. Communist and that's her leanings and 664 00:35:33,960 --> 00:35:37,760 Speaker 1: those are her policies. And when she was running, nobody 665 00:35:37,760 --> 00:35:45,239 Speaker 1: covered this.
