But there wasn't much in La se No, 31 00:01:35,840 --> 00:01:38,440 Speaker 1: there wasn't anything to see. You did you look up? 32 00:01:38,520 --> 00:01:40,800 Speaker 1: I just looked out the window, and everybody in our 33 00:01:40,800 --> 00:01:42,240 Speaker 1: bureau they all went out. I've got a pair of 34 00:01:42,240 --> 00:01:44,039 Speaker 1: the glasses here that they gave me. They all ran out. 35 00:01:44,080 --> 00:01:45,880 Speaker 1: We had some breaking news cover in Vegas, so I 36 00:01:45,880 --> 00:01:47,360 Speaker 1: didn't get a chance and they came running in. And 37 00:01:47,400 --> 00:01:48,920 Speaker 1: you gotta go out and see it. You gotta go. 38 00:01:49,400 --> 00:01:53,800 Speaker 1: I'm good. I'm good if it doesn't go completely dark. 39 00:01:53,840 --> 00:01:56,680 Speaker 1: It's like, you know, I do remember covering the one 40 00:01:56,720 --> 00:01:59,920 Speaker 1: in Oregon back in like twenty seventeen. There is a 41 00:02:00,200 --> 00:02:04,080 Speaker 1: weird like emotional aspect to it. Where because you heard 42 00:02:04,120 --> 00:02:06,880 Speaker 1: all the people today and saw them crying, and they 43 00:02:07,000 --> 00:02:09,800 Speaker 1: especially in the area of totality. There is something weird 44 00:02:09,800 --> 00:02:11,760 Speaker 1: about it when it does go over. But why they 45 00:02:11,800 --> 00:02:13,400 Speaker 1: were I don't really know. It gets dark every night 46 00:02:14,280 --> 00:02:16,760 Speaker 1: it's darting, we all start crying. Some people cry every night. 47 00:02:16,800 --> 00:02:20,079 Speaker 1: They cry themselves. So people were crying during the clipse today. 48 00:02:20,080 --> 00:02:23,239 Speaker 1: I missed one percent. Yeah, people were. Yeah, the emotional 49 00:02:23,280 --> 00:02:26,079 Speaker 1: aspect of it. So I don't have emotions. So well, 50 00:02:26,120 --> 00:02:28,200 Speaker 1: that's true, you were crying. I would be really worried 51 00:02:28,440 --> 00:02:31,440 Speaker 1: when I start crying. Oh yeah, it is the end 52 00:02:31,480 --> 00:02:34,200 Speaker 1: of the world if I start sobbing. So yeah. On 53 00:02:34,240 --> 00:02:37,200 Speaker 1: the Southwest plane seven thirty seven, eight hundred, they were 54 00:02:37,240 --> 00:02:40,239 Speaker 1: lifting off out of Denver. Uh. They were in their climb. 55 00:02:40,240 --> 00:02:41,920 Speaker 1: They were heading to Houston. A lot of people on 56 00:02:41,960 --> 00:02:44,239 Speaker 1: board actually were going to see the eclipse. From the 57 00:02:44,400 --> 00:02:46,560 Speaker 1: people that we heard from, they were about ten minutes 58 00:02:46,600 --> 00:02:49,560 Speaker 1: into the climb and then passengers who were sitting on 59 00:02:49,600 --> 00:02:53,760 Speaker 1: the wing looking out the window noticed something wasn't quite right. 60 00:02:53,800 --> 00:02:57,239 Speaker 1: It looked like the right engine was coming apart. The 61 00:02:57,560 --> 00:03:01,000 Speaker 1: covering was coming off, flapping in the wind like tinfoil, 62 00:03:01,400 --> 00:03:03,600 Speaker 1: and kind of got hooked up on the leading edge 63 00:03:03,639 --> 00:03:06,320 Speaker 1: of that right wing. Lisa Catterall kind of she was 64 00:03:06,320 --> 00:03:08,080 Speaker 1: in the Denver airport when we talked to her. Kind 65 00:03:08,120 --> 00:03:09,919 Speaker 1: I don't understand, but she said she called the flight 66 00:03:09,960 --> 00:03:13,120 Speaker 1: attendant over to say, look what I'm seeing. And this 67 00:03:13,200 --> 00:03:15,080 Speaker 1: The flight attendant walked back, clipped. 68 00:03:14,760 --> 00:03:16,079 Speaker 3: Down my window and went, oh my god. 69 00:03:16,240 --> 00:03:17,680 Speaker 1: The flight attendant looked out of the window and said, 70 00:03:17,720 --> 00:03:19,799 Speaker 1: oh my gosh. And she was heading to see the 71 00:03:19,840 --> 00:03:22,960 Speaker 1: eclipse going to Houston. It was the blue cover over 72 00:03:23,040 --> 00:03:26,560 Speaker 1: the right engine called the Cowling. The department says Southwest 73 00:03:26,600 --> 00:03:29,519 Speaker 1: dot com on it. It was peeling away and getting 74 00:03:29,520 --> 00:03:33,080 Speaker 1: progressively worse, kind of hanging there on the wing, and 75 00:03:33,120 --> 00:03:35,360 Speaker 1: more and more as they were flying, it was ripping away, 76 00:03:35,400 --> 00:03:39,880 Speaker 1: exposing all the piping and cabling inside the engine underneath 77 00:03:40,080 --> 00:03:43,240 Speaker 1: the covering. The pilots radioed in saying, eh, we got 78 00:03:43,240 --> 00:03:44,040 Speaker 1: to come back to Denver. 79 00:03:44,160 --> 00:03:48,400 Speaker 4: Go ahead, and the Clain emergency for Sobwest. 80 00:03:47,680 --> 00:03:50,120 Speaker 1: And I would like an immediate return. 81 00:03:50,200 --> 00:03:52,400 Speaker 4: We got a piece of the engine Cowling hanging on. 82 00:03:52,600 --> 00:03:55,120 Speaker 1: Apparently the audio from Live atc SO they reported in 83 00:03:55,120 --> 00:03:57,880 Speaker 1: one hundred and forty three souls on board and they 84 00:03:57,920 --> 00:04:01,280 Speaker 1: had two lap children as well. Letting rescuers know they 85 00:04:01,280 --> 00:04:02,880 Speaker 1: were coming in. They were gonna come in hot, they 86 00:04:02,880 --> 00:04:05,440 Speaker 1: were heavy, they were coming in fast. They didn't have 87 00:04:05,600 --> 00:04:07,640 Speaker 1: time and they didn't burn off a fuel. They just 88 00:04:07,640 --> 00:04:09,720 Speaker 1: turned around and came back. They told their traffic control. 89 00:04:09,800 --> 00:04:11,880 Speaker 1: I think the flaps on the onboard side of the 90 00:04:12,280 --> 00:04:14,800 Speaker 1: engine between the engine and the fu garage ripped off 91 00:04:14,840 --> 00:04:17,920 Speaker 1: on takeoffs. We don't actually see it from the continents, 92 00:04:17,960 --> 00:04:19,600 Speaker 1: just what the crew of the back is telling us. 93 00:04:19,720 --> 00:04:21,960 Speaker 1: When they landed, the cover on the engine, the cowing 94 00:04:21,960 --> 00:04:24,479 Speaker 1: there was pretty much gone. The running theory John is 95 00:04:24,520 --> 00:04:27,719 Speaker 1: that these covers they are light, they just have clips 96 00:04:27,760 --> 00:04:30,120 Speaker 1: on them. That maintenance was probably done because they can 97 00:04:30,160 --> 00:04:32,360 Speaker 1: lift them up to do maintenance on the engine and 98 00:04:32,440 --> 00:04:35,280 Speaker 1: they may not have been clipped closed. And it really 99 00:04:35,360 --> 00:04:38,839 Speaker 1: doesn't The engine was operating fine. Nothing got sucked into it. 100 00:04:39,200 --> 00:04:41,880 Speaker 1: It didn't do It wasn't really dangerous in that way, 101 00:04:41,920 --> 00:04:43,960 Speaker 1: but it looked impressive like the engine was coming apart. 102 00:04:44,040 --> 00:04:46,000 Speaker 1: This is our aviation analyst, Steve ganiards. 103 00:04:45,680 --> 00:04:47,600 Speaker 4: As soon as there was enough air over the airplane 104 00:04:47,640 --> 00:04:51,479 Speaker 4: as it got airborne, those light aluminum shells were actually 105 00:04:51,560 --> 00:04:52,200 Speaker 4: ripped off. 106 00:04:52,040 --> 00:04:54,839 Speaker 1: The airplane, but it did not come from the inside 107 00:04:54,839 --> 00:04:57,640 Speaker 1: of the airplane. That engine was still functioning normally, so 108 00:04:57,640 --> 00:05:00,279 Speaker 1: they landed back in Denver. Everybody was fine that seven 109 00:05:00,360 --> 00:05:03,119 Speaker 1: thirty seven eight hundred. It's a maintenance right now in Denver. 110 00:05:03,160 --> 00:05:05,760 Speaker 1: They'll fix the engine. It'll fly again, probably in a 111 00:05:05,800 --> 00:05:08,680 Speaker 1: couple of days. But it it looked impressive as they 112 00:05:08,680 --> 00:05:11,279 Speaker 1: were flying along and pieces of the engine were flying off. 113 00:05:11,560 --> 00:05:14,719 Speaker 1: Do you know how many passengers probably made a Boeing joke. 114 00:05:16,279 --> 00:05:16,479 Speaker 5: Later? 115 00:05:16,600 --> 00:05:19,680 Speaker 1: Why waiting for the flight to take off? I think 116 00:05:19,880 --> 00:05:23,480 Speaker 1: everybody I know is making Boeing jokes and reference the 117 00:05:23,520 --> 00:05:26,279 Speaker 1: engine begins to disintegrate it in front of you. And 118 00:05:26,320 --> 00:05:28,279 Speaker 1: this one, really, though, is not a Boeing issue. This 119 00:05:28,440 --> 00:05:31,159 Speaker 1: is a maintenance. They don't make the engines. And yeah, 120 00:05:31,279 --> 00:05:33,440 Speaker 1: it was probably just a clip that wasn't closed, but yes, 121 00:05:33,560 --> 00:05:35,080 Speaker 1: they were on a Boeing and yeah they had to 122 00:05:35,120 --> 00:05:37,760 Speaker 1: return an emergency landing. I know, it's it is. It 123 00:05:37,800 --> 00:05:41,440 Speaker 1: is a stunning number of incidents, it is, but we're 124 00:05:41,440 --> 00:05:43,800 Speaker 1: also paying more attention to them, and you know, we're 125 00:05:43,839 --> 00:05:45,800 Speaker 1: kind of in that that heightened state right now. But 126 00:05:46,000 --> 00:05:48,040 Speaker 1: there has been a lot going on, all right, Alex, 127 00:05:48,160 --> 00:05:51,919 Speaker 1: very good, thank you, you got it. Alex Stone for 128 00:05:52,040 --> 00:05:57,800 Speaker 1: ABC News. But It's just pretty entertaining these days. When 129 00:05:57,839 --> 00:05:59,360 Speaker 1: you look out the window as a passenger, you just 130 00:05:59,360 --> 00:06:01,039 Speaker 1: don't know what you're gonna to see. Might see an 131 00:06:01,080 --> 00:06:06,320 Speaker 1: engine on fire, you might see an engine flap banging 132 00:06:06,360 --> 00:06:10,359 Speaker 1: away in the wind. There you might, you know, be 133 00:06:10,440 --> 00:06:13,040 Speaker 1: watching one of the door plugs blow off into space. 134 00:06:14,760 --> 00:06:20,760 Speaker 1: I don't know what that magazine story I mentioned before is. 135 00:06:20,760 --> 00:06:27,159 Speaker 1: Is Boeing got rid of a lot of smart, experienced people, 136 00:06:28,000 --> 00:06:30,640 Speaker 1: especially you know, over the years, there were a lot 137 00:06:30,640 --> 00:06:34,919 Speaker 1: of corporate buyouts, a lot of buyouts that the corporations engineered, 138 00:06:35,560 --> 00:06:38,320 Speaker 1: especially when they went through the downturn during COVID, and 139 00:06:38,960 --> 00:06:40,760 Speaker 1: the same thing at the airlines. I mean a lot 140 00:06:40,760 --> 00:06:44,680 Speaker 1: of a lot of pilots were bought out and mechanics 141 00:06:44,680 --> 00:06:47,320 Speaker 1: were bought out. And again the older ones, they're more experienced, 142 00:06:47,360 --> 00:06:51,800 Speaker 1: they make more money. They were they took the retirement 143 00:06:51,800 --> 00:06:55,640 Speaker 1: deals early, and so there's a tremendous amount of experience 144 00:06:55,680 --> 00:07:02,240 Speaker 1: that has been lost and you can't replace them. You 145 00:07:02,640 --> 00:07:05,400 Speaker 1: can have credentials as to where you were trained, where 146 00:07:05,400 --> 00:07:09,200 Speaker 1: you graduated, but the experience you build up over twenty 147 00:07:09,320 --> 00:07:12,120 Speaker 1: or thirty or more years, and then you multiply that 148 00:07:12,160 --> 00:07:17,760 Speaker 1: by how many people just checked out for good because 149 00:07:17,800 --> 00:07:22,760 Speaker 1: the airlines panicked during the COVID lockdown and the government 150 00:07:22,840 --> 00:07:27,760 Speaker 1: was offering so much money. The airlines were supposed to 151 00:07:27,800 --> 00:07:30,720 Speaker 1: just cover payroll, and instead they thought, yeah, we'll put 152 00:07:30,880 --> 00:07:32,800 Speaker 1: some of this money up front and buy everyone out 153 00:07:33,560 --> 00:07:35,600 Speaker 1: and save a lot more money in the long run. 154 00:07:35,640 --> 00:07:39,000 Speaker 1: But that's good. Obviously turned out to be a huge mistake. 155 00:07:39,480 --> 00:07:40,240 Speaker 1: More coming up. 156 00:07:40,960 --> 00:07:45,280 Speaker 4: You're listening to John Cobelt on demand from KFI AM 157 00:07:45,320 --> 00:07:45,840 Speaker 4: six forty. 158 00:07:47,320 --> 00:07:50,760 Speaker 1: Coming up after three o'clock, we're going to have John 159 00:07:50,800 --> 00:07:55,880 Speaker 1: McKinney on. John McKinney, former candidate for Alla County District 160 00:07:55,920 --> 00:08:00,600 Speaker 1: Attorney against George Gascon. He and another former candidate, Marie Ramirez, 161 00:08:00,800 --> 00:08:04,320 Speaker 1: both prosecutors. They are going to be supporting Nathan Hackman. 162 00:08:04,400 --> 00:08:06,960 Speaker 1: They announced that at a press conference this morning, and 163 00:08:07,360 --> 00:08:12,160 Speaker 1: John McKinney is going to come on. Because Hakman did 164 00:08:12,160 --> 00:08:16,200 Speaker 1: the best out of the eleven people challenging Gascon. He 165 00:08:16,360 --> 00:08:19,600 Speaker 1: ended up with a sixteen percent of the vote. Hawkman 166 00:08:19,680 --> 00:08:25,040 Speaker 1: had sixteen, Gascone had twenty five, but everybody else. Obviously, 167 00:08:25,120 --> 00:08:27,440 Speaker 1: all the challengers added up to a seventy five percent 168 00:08:27,520 --> 00:08:33,120 Speaker 1: no vote on Gascon, and a poll released just recently 169 00:08:33,200 --> 00:08:38,280 Speaker 1: shows that Hawkman is ahead by twenty one points and 170 00:08:39,400 --> 00:08:42,920 Speaker 1: forty four to twenty three with thirty three percent undecided. 171 00:08:44,600 --> 00:08:47,360 Speaker 1: So the job here for Nathan Hackman is to get 172 00:08:47,360 --> 00:08:51,559 Speaker 1: some of the undecideds in his camp. And maybe there 173 00:08:51,559 --> 00:08:55,280 Speaker 1: are people who are disappointed that they're candidate lost and 174 00:08:55,520 --> 00:08:58,640 Speaker 1: don't know Hawkman. Well, if you were a John McKinney 175 00:08:58,640 --> 00:09:02,880 Speaker 1: fan or a Ria Ramirors fan, listen after three o'clock 176 00:09:03,000 --> 00:09:05,040 Speaker 1: is we're going to talk to McKinney, and they're both 177 00:09:05,120 --> 00:09:10,280 Speaker 1: endorsing Hawkman. It's obvious. It's obvious that all these people 178 00:09:10,360 --> 00:09:15,240 Speaker 1: would be far, far, far better than that evil snake 179 00:09:15,480 --> 00:09:18,920 Speaker 1: gas Cone. So we'll talk to John McKinney coming up now. 180 00:09:20,200 --> 00:09:27,199 Speaker 1: The Wall Street Journal had something which answers really all 181 00:09:27,240 --> 00:09:30,320 Speaker 1: the political questions you might have about the presidential race. 182 00:09:31,720 --> 00:09:35,559 Speaker 1: This explains it. I can't believe how many left wing 183 00:09:35,640 --> 00:09:42,480 Speaker 1: progressive writers, columnists, politicians, people on television they're scratching their 184 00:09:42,520 --> 00:09:45,720 Speaker 1: heads and they don't understand why is Joe Biden not 185 00:09:45,840 --> 00:09:48,079 Speaker 1: doing that well? Is is is approval rating so loow? 186 00:09:48,480 --> 00:09:50,800 Speaker 1: Why is he losing the Trump and the polls? Why 187 00:09:50,880 --> 00:09:53,280 Speaker 1: is he losing in all the swing states. Why are 188 00:09:53,320 --> 00:09:56,800 Speaker 1: people so unhappy? Don't they see that the economy is 189 00:09:56,840 --> 00:10:00,080 Speaker 1: growing and that the jobs are plentiful and the unemployments. Well, 190 00:10:00,760 --> 00:10:05,679 Speaker 1: there is one thing that they never discuss, and that's 191 00:10:06,400 --> 00:10:12,000 Speaker 1: food inflation. And this is what's causing people to be 192 00:10:12,080 --> 00:10:16,040 Speaker 1: unhappy with the Biden administration. Well, there's a few other things, 193 00:10:16,080 --> 00:10:19,400 Speaker 1: but this one hits closest to home. You always look 194 00:10:19,559 --> 00:10:22,600 Speaker 1: at what matters to normal people in their everyday life. 195 00:10:23,559 --> 00:10:27,199 Speaker 1: You look at the sixteen hours that they're awake, let's say, 196 00:10:27,240 --> 00:10:29,719 Speaker 1: between you know, seven of the morning and eleven at night. 197 00:10:29,800 --> 00:10:32,959 Speaker 1: What happens to them each day, and that is what's 198 00:10:33,000 --> 00:10:36,720 Speaker 1: going to drive an election, not all this nonsense that 199 00:10:36,760 --> 00:10:40,840 Speaker 1: you read about everybody with their weird boutique esoteric issues, 200 00:10:41,480 --> 00:10:47,800 Speaker 1: their reforms, these these social justice morons. It's this and 201 00:10:48,120 --> 00:10:51,800 Speaker 1: it's why Trump continues to do well in polling despite 202 00:10:51,960 --> 00:10:55,080 Speaker 1: all the horrible negative things that you can say about 203 00:10:56,400 --> 00:10:59,960 Speaker 1: and what the Wall Street Journal did, it's very big. 204 00:11:00,800 --> 00:11:03,480 Speaker 1: It took one hundred dollars to see how far one 205 00:11:03,520 --> 00:11:06,760 Speaker 1: hundred dollars goes at the grocery store after five years 206 00:11:06,760 --> 00:11:10,199 Speaker 1: of inflation. They compared it all the way to February 207 00:11:10,240 --> 00:11:13,720 Speaker 1: of twenty nineteen. From twenty nineteen to twenty twenty four, 208 00:11:14,679 --> 00:11:19,840 Speaker 1: prices for hundreds of grocery items have increased by more 209 00:11:19,880 --> 00:11:28,199 Speaker 1: than fifty percent since twenty nineteen. Fifty percent. The food 210 00:11:28,240 --> 00:11:31,320 Speaker 1: companies raised their prices, and they said they had to 211 00:11:31,480 --> 00:11:36,520 Speaker 1: because of their own rising costs for ingredients, transportation, and labor. 212 00:11:37,880 --> 00:11:43,680 Speaker 1: Some people think the companies are padding the inflation, giving 213 00:11:43,720 --> 00:11:47,000 Speaker 1: themselves some extra money on the side, because they got 214 00:11:47,000 --> 00:11:49,640 Speaker 1: a good cover story here. But the truth is is 215 00:11:49,679 --> 00:11:53,520 Speaker 1: that the Biden administration and the Federal Reserve flooded the 216 00:11:53,559 --> 00:11:59,800 Speaker 1: economy with cheap money. Well, in a lot of cases, 217 00:12:00,320 --> 00:12:04,240 Speaker 1: invented money, right. They printed money, they borrowed money, They 218 00:12:04,679 --> 00:12:08,400 Speaker 1: trillions of dollars of extra debt, and the money went 219 00:12:08,440 --> 00:12:11,480 Speaker 1: into people's pockets, all those checks that they wrote during 220 00:12:11,520 --> 00:12:16,280 Speaker 1: COVID and it it it. That's what That's what always 221 00:12:16,280 --> 00:12:20,080 Speaker 1: triggers inflation. Because I have read up on other countries 222 00:12:20,080 --> 00:12:23,679 Speaker 1: and other eras that have gone through bad inflation, and 223 00:12:23,720 --> 00:12:26,120 Speaker 1: this is not nearly as bad as a lot of countries, 224 00:12:26,720 --> 00:12:29,320 Speaker 1: but the trigger is always the same. They printed too 225 00:12:29,400 --> 00:12:33,480 Speaker 1: much money, spent too much money, whether it's borrowed or printed. 226 00:12:34,600 --> 00:12:39,600 Speaker 1: That that's that's what starts inflation. And the Wall Street 227 00:12:39,679 --> 00:12:42,160 Speaker 1: Journal has it just in black and white. Here, don't, 228 00:12:42,200 --> 00:12:44,439 Speaker 1: I don't. This is not a debate. I'll give you 229 00:12:45,200 --> 00:12:48,760 Speaker 1: ten examples here of common everyday foods, and when you 230 00:12:48,800 --> 00:12:52,040 Speaker 1: look at the price increase, it's pretty stunning. This is 231 00:12:52,080 --> 00:12:56,040 Speaker 1: again a five year period, so this is a good 232 00:12:56,160 --> 00:13:01,120 Speaker 1: representative sample. It's not cherry picking. Cooking oil now costs 233 00:13:01,400 --> 00:13:04,319 Speaker 1: eight dollars and ten cents for a bottle of cooking oil. 234 00:13:04,640 --> 00:13:11,280 Speaker 1: That's up fifty four percent fifty four percent. Beef is 235 00:13:11,320 --> 00:13:17,840 Speaker 1: now seven dollars and twenty three cents compared to that 236 00:13:18,040 --> 00:13:20,400 Speaker 1: compared to five years ago, a fifty one percent increase. 237 00:13:22,040 --> 00:13:29,160 Speaker 1: Fruit snacks seventy seven percent increase, mayonnaise, fifty percent increase. 238 00:13:30,640 --> 00:13:38,840 Speaker 1: Apple sauce is a fifty one percent increase. Bacon. Bacon 239 00:13:38,960 --> 00:13:48,880 Speaker 1: actually has gone down a bit just in the last year. 240 00:13:48,960 --> 00:13:51,680 Speaker 1: They've got five things that went down. Bagels went down. 241 00:13:52,480 --> 00:13:55,040 Speaker 1: Not the place I go to. I got to bring 242 00:13:55,080 --> 00:13:58,200 Speaker 1: this in place I go to. The bagels have gone 243 00:13:58,240 --> 00:14:05,080 Speaker 1: up consistently this year. Uh, but uh, cherries, tilapia, and 244 00:14:05,120 --> 00:14:08,800 Speaker 1: bacon price has gone down. Well, happy's the only fish 245 00:14:08,840 --> 00:14:11,640 Speaker 1: I can eat with that getting going having a seizure. 246 00:14:11,760 --> 00:14:13,720 Speaker 1: It's the only thing I'm not allergic to when it 247 00:14:13,720 --> 00:14:19,120 Speaker 1: comes to fish, and but the rest of the foods combined, 248 00:14:19,800 --> 00:14:26,800 Speaker 1: it's uh, it's in the fifty percent range. And when 249 00:14:26,920 --> 00:14:28,640 Speaker 1: when you go to the you go to the store 250 00:14:28,680 --> 00:14:32,000 Speaker 1: like three times a week, it's three times a week, 251 00:14:32,040 --> 00:14:34,120 Speaker 1: you walk out, you walk out pissed off. I think 252 00:14:34,120 --> 00:14:36,840 Speaker 1: we've all had this. You know, you get one bag 253 00:14:36,840 --> 00:14:39,840 Speaker 1: of groceries and it's one hundred bucks, and you've got 254 00:14:39,880 --> 00:14:41,840 Speaker 1: you've got nothing really all that useful in it. You 255 00:14:41,920 --> 00:14:44,720 Speaker 1: might not even have a mail. Just buy odds and ends, 256 00:14:44,760 --> 00:14:47,320 Speaker 1: whatever's on the shopping list. One hundred bucks, one bag, 257 00:14:47,360 --> 00:14:53,440 Speaker 1: and you're out of there. And so when you walk 258 00:14:53,440 --> 00:14:56,240 Speaker 1: in and you have that emotion three times a week 259 00:14:56,360 --> 00:14:59,000 Speaker 1: and you don't have the money, you know that there's 260 00:15:00,560 --> 00:15:06,280 Speaker 1: people in the lower economic classes, middle economic classes didn't 261 00:15:06,320 --> 00:15:09,560 Speaker 1: have the extra hundreds of dollars every week to spend 262 00:15:09,560 --> 00:15:12,800 Speaker 1: on food. It simply does not exist. Now I read 263 00:15:12,840 --> 00:15:16,240 Speaker 1: today that forty percent of the country does not have 264 00:15:17,120 --> 00:15:19,760 Speaker 1: the money to cover a five hundred dollars emergency. You 265 00:15:19,800 --> 00:15:22,720 Speaker 1: do not have five hundred dollars sitting around in a 266 00:15:22,720 --> 00:15:26,120 Speaker 1: bank account in case something weird happens, maybe the car 267 00:15:26,160 --> 00:15:30,400 Speaker 1: blows up, they'll five hundred bucks to fix it. Like 268 00:15:30,480 --> 00:15:32,920 Speaker 1: you can get a car fixed for five hundred dollars. 269 00:15:33,120 --> 00:15:34,040 Speaker 1: All right, more coming up. 270 00:15:35,040 --> 00:15:39,400 Speaker 4: You're listening to John Cobels on demand from KFI AM 271 00:15:39,440 --> 00:15:39,960 Speaker 4: six forty. 272 00:15:40,720 --> 00:15:44,280 Speaker 1: Like I said, we'll talk to John McKinney, La County 273 00:15:44,280 --> 00:15:48,200 Speaker 1: Deputy DA who ran against George Gascone. He's throwing his 274 00:15:48,240 --> 00:15:51,480 Speaker 1: support now to the to the man who survived the 275 00:15:51,560 --> 00:15:54,640 Speaker 1: runoff with Gascone. That's Nathan Hawkman. So John McKinney talking 276 00:15:54,680 --> 00:15:58,760 Speaker 1: about his support for Nathan Hakman coming up after three o'clock. 277 00:15:58,840 --> 00:16:01,520 Speaker 1: If you were a big McKinney fan, and and I was, 278 00:16:02,160 --> 00:16:05,640 Speaker 1: we endorsed him and John and Tommy to be the 279 00:16:05,680 --> 00:16:10,880 Speaker 1: top two in the runoff, and uh, Hakman is it 280 00:16:10,920 --> 00:16:12,760 Speaker 1: was it was a top choice as well. I said, 281 00:16:12,760 --> 00:16:15,600 Speaker 1: there were quite a few really great candidates. And uh, 282 00:16:16,200 --> 00:16:21,120 Speaker 1: and it's good to see that McKinney is enjoying Hakman's team. There. 283 00:16:23,000 --> 00:16:25,640 Speaker 1: I told you, you know, it's it's this will go 284 00:16:25,680 --> 00:16:29,760 Speaker 1: down in history, this era as as being the era 285 00:16:29,880 --> 00:16:33,600 Speaker 1: that that transformed a lot of things, much of it 286 00:16:33,680 --> 00:16:36,280 Speaker 1: caused by the pandemic and and the lockdowns. But but 287 00:16:36,640 --> 00:16:39,160 Speaker 1: changed things irreversibly. I think we see that in the 288 00:16:39,160 --> 00:16:42,680 Speaker 1: workplace now, where lots of people, uh, never came back 289 00:16:42,720 --> 00:16:46,680 Speaker 1: to work. They just don't show. Some of them are 290 00:16:46,800 --> 00:16:49,880 Speaker 1: ordered to and they still don't show. And so it's 291 00:16:49,920 --> 00:16:52,960 Speaker 1: remote work, it's stay at home work, it's you know, 292 00:16:53,000 --> 00:16:56,480 Speaker 1: all these euphemisms for not showing up anymore. And and 293 00:16:56,520 --> 00:16:59,160 Speaker 1: it does make a difference. And I don't know if 294 00:16:59,160 --> 00:17:03,560 Speaker 1: they can quantify it when they do research, but when 295 00:17:03,640 --> 00:17:07,320 Speaker 1: you don't have people readily available to talk to, it's 296 00:17:08,240 --> 00:17:11,920 Speaker 1: not as good. It's not the same. And another thing, 297 00:17:12,240 --> 00:17:16,000 Speaker 1: it's almost like the magic was broken. And I understand. 298 00:17:16,119 --> 00:17:19,240 Speaker 1: I mean, I've rarely worked in an office setting where 299 00:17:19,240 --> 00:17:21,840 Speaker 1: I had to sit in a cubicle or a workstation 300 00:17:22,080 --> 00:17:25,399 Speaker 1: or inside or a four walled office, and it always 301 00:17:25,400 --> 00:17:28,919 Speaker 1: looked very, very limitating, limiting to me. I understand that. 302 00:17:29,040 --> 00:17:33,120 Speaker 1: But there was something about how the larger unit would 303 00:17:33,200 --> 00:17:37,000 Speaker 1: function if everybody was present. And I can see and 304 00:17:37,040 --> 00:17:39,439 Speaker 1: I'm aware of in a lot of cases that doesn't 305 00:17:39,480 --> 00:17:42,879 Speaker 1: happen anymore. People don't want to admit to it, but 306 00:17:44,040 --> 00:17:48,520 Speaker 1: it's not good. Another thing that changed permanently was the 307 00:17:48,560 --> 00:17:51,919 Speaker 1: magic was broken in terms of kids feeling they had 308 00:17:51,960 --> 00:17:54,879 Speaker 1: to show up at school. And it's not just kids. 309 00:17:54,960 --> 00:17:56,960 Speaker 1: The parents don't think the kids have to show up 310 00:17:57,000 --> 00:18:01,199 Speaker 1: anymore either. Apparently, the New York Times did quite a 311 00:18:01,359 --> 00:18:06,880 Speaker 1: story that the number of the percentage of students who 312 00:18:06,880 --> 00:18:14,520 Speaker 1: are now chronically absent has doubled since the pandemic, like 313 00:18:14,640 --> 00:18:18,879 Speaker 1: permanently doubled, like people stop showing up for school and 314 00:18:19,080 --> 00:18:22,840 Speaker 1: are still not shown up for school. And we're talking 315 00:18:22,880 --> 00:18:29,080 Speaker 1: about before the pandemic, on average, in schools across the country, 316 00:18:29,480 --> 00:18:31,800 Speaker 1: about thirteen to fifteen percent of the students would be 317 00:18:31,880 --> 00:18:36,480 Speaker 1: chronically absent, missing at least ten percent of the school year, 318 00:18:36,480 --> 00:18:39,440 Speaker 1: which is about eighteen days. And that's that's three and 319 00:18:39,440 --> 00:18:43,680 Speaker 1: a half weeks. Now it's doubled the last two years 320 00:18:43,680 --> 00:18:47,280 Speaker 1: they have twenty two and twenty three eight twenty six 321 00:18:47,320 --> 00:18:51,120 Speaker 1: percent went from thirteen fifteen to twenty six twenty eight 322 00:18:51,760 --> 00:18:55,359 Speaker 1: percent of students who miss ten percent or more of 323 00:18:55,359 --> 00:19:00,600 Speaker 1: the year. And what's interesting is it hit. It hit 324 00:19:00,680 --> 00:19:06,080 Speaker 1: all the demographics, all the districts, regardless of size. I'll 325 00:19:06,080 --> 00:19:13,560 Speaker 1: give you an example. The richest districts, the percentage of 326 00:19:13,560 --> 00:19:18,280 Speaker 1: students who don't show up regularly anymore doubled from ten 327 00:19:18,359 --> 00:19:23,720 Speaker 1: to almost twenty. Average districts fifteen to twenty six, poor 328 00:19:23,800 --> 00:19:28,320 Speaker 1: districts nineteen to thirty two. So the poorest districts you 329 00:19:28,359 --> 00:19:30,960 Speaker 1: have about a third of the kids missing ten percent 330 00:19:31,000 --> 00:19:35,240 Speaker 1: of the year or more. And what's interesting is even 331 00:19:35,359 --> 00:19:40,760 Speaker 1: the length of the school closure, all the districts responded 332 00:19:40,800 --> 00:19:45,000 Speaker 1: the same. The schools that had the most remote work 333 00:19:45,760 --> 00:19:48,320 Speaker 1: went from sixteen to twenty eight. Percent of the kids 334 00:19:48,800 --> 00:19:56,359 Speaker 1: not engaging in chronic absenteeism. If your school closed a 335 00:19:56,600 --> 00:20:00,880 Speaker 1: middle amount went from fifteen to twenty five. The schools 336 00:20:00,880 --> 00:20:04,399 Speaker 1: that demanded the most in person classes, they went up 337 00:20:04,480 --> 00:20:07,600 Speaker 1: sixteen to twenty five. It was just about the same 338 00:20:08,040 --> 00:20:10,440 Speaker 1: whether you had a big lockdown school or a mild 339 00:20:10,440 --> 00:20:15,840 Speaker 1: lockdown school. Smallest school districts, middle, largest, they had about 340 00:20:15,880 --> 00:20:20,840 Speaker 1: the same numbers mid to upper twenties. Percentage of kids 341 00:20:20,840 --> 00:20:26,280 Speaker 1: who don't show up. Racial makeup closer than you think. 342 00:20:26,640 --> 00:20:34,400 Speaker 1: Majority white schools twenty two percent, majority non white thirty percent. Proportionally, 343 00:20:34,520 --> 00:20:38,920 Speaker 1: both white and non white school districts have a similar 344 00:20:39,040 --> 00:20:44,240 Speaker 1: number of kids who simply don't don't come anymore, not interested. 345 00:20:44,760 --> 00:20:48,680 Speaker 1: They find that the richer families take kids now on 346 00:20:49,000 --> 00:20:51,680 Speaker 1: two week vacations in the middle of the school year, 347 00:20:51,760 --> 00:20:56,400 Speaker 1: like a ski trip, and they just tell their kids, 348 00:20:56,400 --> 00:20:58,840 Speaker 1: we'll make it up online, talk to the teacher and 349 00:20:58,880 --> 00:21:02,439 Speaker 1: get some kind of online and they just go. That 350 00:21:02,480 --> 00:21:06,400 Speaker 1: would have been heard of in years past. Parents would 351 00:21:06,400 --> 00:21:10,720 Speaker 1: have been terrified to contact a school official and say, hey, 352 00:21:10,720 --> 00:21:16,679 Speaker 1: we're going on a ski trip for two weeks. You know, 353 00:21:16,720 --> 00:21:20,320 Speaker 1: the principal would would would blow a gasket, make all 354 00:21:20,400 --> 00:21:22,520 Speaker 1: kinds of threats. Now it's like, hey, you know, we'll 355 00:21:22,520 --> 00:21:27,439 Speaker 1: go and see it. Oh okay, and it's not good. 356 00:21:30,000 --> 00:21:32,679 Speaker 1: I mean, what's funny is most people agree that remote 357 00:21:32,760 --> 00:21:38,880 Speaker 1: learning on screens from your kitchen sucked. Sucked for most kids, 358 00:21:38,920 --> 00:21:42,679 Speaker 1: and they fell way behind in the learning process. But 359 00:21:42,840 --> 00:21:46,440 Speaker 1: even after that experience, more and more parents just don't 360 00:21:46,480 --> 00:21:49,639 Speaker 1: think it's mandatory that the kids have to go. And 361 00:21:49,680 --> 00:21:51,880 Speaker 1: I think part of it is they saw what kind 362 00:21:51,920 --> 00:21:57,359 Speaker 1: of garbage was being taught to their kids during the 363 00:21:57,400 --> 00:22:04,200 Speaker 1: lockdown by Zoom. Maybe all the political woke nonsense, or 364 00:22:04,480 --> 00:22:06,159 Speaker 1: just a lot of a lot of the teaching just 365 00:22:06,160 --> 00:22:09,800 Speaker 1: seem to be worthless time fillers. A lot of teachers 366 00:22:09,800 --> 00:22:12,520 Speaker 1: were just sitting in their bathrobe on the sofa and 367 00:22:12,560 --> 00:22:15,040 Speaker 1: loading a video into zoom and that was your day. 368 00:22:16,160 --> 00:22:19,320 Speaker 1: And I guess the teachers lost a lot of respect 369 00:22:19,840 --> 00:22:23,120 Speaker 1: and they're no longer intimidated by the administrators or were 370 00:22:23,119 --> 00:22:25,800 Speaker 1: by the teachers themselves. They don't think that much of 371 00:22:25,840 --> 00:22:28,239 Speaker 1: them anymore. I mean, when you get up to a 372 00:22:28,280 --> 00:22:30,879 Speaker 1: third of parents saying, ah, you don't have to go 373 00:22:30,960 --> 00:22:36,959 Speaker 1: that much. Take take take three four weeks off. I mean, 374 00:22:37,000 --> 00:22:39,919 Speaker 1: when you're talking about ten percent of the year, you know, 375 00:22:39,960 --> 00:22:47,439 Speaker 1: you're you're you're talking almost four weeks you're missing. That's uh, 376 00:22:47,600 --> 00:22:51,200 Speaker 1: that's huge. I can't remember anybody missing four weeks of 377 00:22:51,240 --> 00:22:54,160 Speaker 1: school when I was going to school, or when my kids, 378 00:22:54,280 --> 00:22:57,240 Speaker 1: when my sons went to school. So it's it's it's 379 00:22:57,320 --> 00:23:00,600 Speaker 1: it's a huge change now at the workplace and in 380 00:23:00,680 --> 00:23:04,200 Speaker 1: the schools where people don't feel the need to bother anymore. 381 00:23:04,640 --> 00:23:11,320 Speaker 1: And if you don't like it, eh, now, that's that's 382 00:23:11,359 --> 00:23:15,359 Speaker 1: that's not good. I don't know. Maybe explains why all 383 00:23:15,359 --> 00:23:17,640 Speaker 1: the parts are flying off the planes. I don't know. 384 00:23:18,400 --> 00:23:21,960 Speaker 1: But if people no longer have a drive to succeed, 385 00:23:22,040 --> 00:23:25,280 Speaker 1: a drive even to show up, a drive to learn, 386 00:23:25,880 --> 00:23:28,840 Speaker 1: a drive to be a part of a successful company 387 00:23:28,960 --> 00:23:32,440 Speaker 1: and and do better themselves, because look, if you're staying 388 00:23:32,480 --> 00:23:35,159 Speaker 1: home all the time, you're not climbing the ladder at 389 00:23:35,160 --> 00:23:39,840 Speaker 1: that job. You just simply aren't Most supervisors, most bosses 390 00:23:39,840 --> 00:23:41,880 Speaker 1: are going to reward people who show up every day, 391 00:23:42,359 --> 00:23:46,280 Speaker 1: and if you're bicycling all day or laying in your underwear, 392 00:23:46,400 --> 00:23:51,920 Speaker 1: you're you're not getting the next position. So I don't 393 00:23:51,920 --> 00:23:54,640 Speaker 1: know where this goes, but I I those two stories 394 00:23:54,720 --> 00:23:58,320 Speaker 1: just just shocked me. School absences and the lack of 395 00:23:59,000 --> 00:24:01,280 Speaker 1: interest people having go on a work. We got more 396 00:24:01,320 --> 00:24:01,719 Speaker 1: coming up. 397 00:24:02,640 --> 00:24:06,959 Speaker 4: You're listening to John Cobelt on demand from KFI AM 398 00:24:07,000 --> 00:24:07,520 Speaker 4: six forty. 399 00:24:08,240 --> 00:24:10,959 Speaker 1: We're going to have John McKinney on a DEPUTYJA ran 400 00:24:11,000 --> 00:24:16,080 Speaker 1: against George Gascon and now that Gascone and Nathan Hakman 401 00:24:16,119 --> 00:24:20,080 Speaker 1: are the finalists for November, McKinney is announced today he 402 00:24:20,200 --> 00:24:23,240 Speaker 1: is supporting Nathan Hackman, So we'll talk to McKinny about 403 00:24:23,240 --> 00:24:27,359 Speaker 1: that coming up. You may have heard in recent days 404 00:24:27,359 --> 00:24:31,639 Speaker 1: that Joe Biden is in and I always hesitate to 405 00:24:33,119 --> 00:24:38,080 Speaker 1: ascribe anything to Biden's actions because I don't know if 406 00:24:38,119 --> 00:24:42,520 Speaker 1: he's conscious. Might be his administration that puts out certain 407 00:24:42,560 --> 00:24:45,359 Speaker 1: statements and policies that he may or may not be 408 00:24:45,400 --> 00:24:48,560 Speaker 1: aware of, but let's just play along here, and he 409 00:24:48,600 --> 00:24:55,760 Speaker 1: basically wants Israel to pull back and otherwise we may 410 00:24:55,800 --> 00:25:00,920 Speaker 1: not give all the support financial military support that they 411 00:25:00,960 --> 00:25:04,520 Speaker 1: need to conduct this work, which is pretty outrageous because 412 00:25:06,200 --> 00:25:09,359 Speaker 1: I noticed all these ceasefire now people are not asking 413 00:25:09,400 --> 00:25:16,880 Speaker 1: Hamas to stop their attacks. They are not demanding that 414 00:25:17,200 --> 00:25:21,560 Speaker 1: everybody in Hamas surrender and come out with your hands up, 415 00:25:21,960 --> 00:25:25,520 Speaker 1: throw your weapons down, bring all the hostages out of hiding, 416 00:25:26,160 --> 00:25:30,000 Speaker 1: and all the rest. That's a pretty good indication that 417 00:25:30,040 --> 00:25:33,639 Speaker 1: if you're not asking Hamas to give up one hundred percent, 418 00:25:34,680 --> 00:25:38,240 Speaker 1: that you are supporting Hamas. You want them to carry 419 00:25:38,240 --> 00:25:41,600 Speaker 1: out the plan to eradicate all the Jews from the planet, 420 00:25:41,920 --> 00:25:45,159 Speaker 1: because that's in the Hamas Charter, and that's how these 421 00:25:45,160 --> 00:25:48,000 Speaker 1: people ought to be challenged. But of course nobody does 422 00:25:48,040 --> 00:25:52,119 Speaker 1: that in the media. This is an interesting clip. This 423 00:25:52,280 --> 00:25:55,439 Speaker 1: is Trey yinst from Fox News yesterday. This is what 424 00:25:55,520 --> 00:26:00,720 Speaker 1: Hamas is doing. Hamas tried to overwhelm Israel's Iron Dome 425 00:26:01,680 --> 00:26:05,600 Speaker 1: missile protection system. Uh listen, listen to this. At the time, 426 00:26:05,640 --> 00:26:06,520 Speaker 1: it was a live report. 427 00:26:06,720 --> 00:26:11,040 Speaker 2: What they didn't know, get down, everyone next to the 428 00:26:11,080 --> 00:26:11,800 Speaker 2: bar played in. 429 00:26:11,840 --> 00:26:20,160 Speaker 3: Flat everyone down, flat, cover your head. 430 00:26:21,720 --> 00:26:26,639 Speaker 2: More rocket player now a loud explosions coming off. Another 431 00:26:26,720 --> 00:26:29,360 Speaker 2: time they're they're trying to overwhelm the Iron Dome again. 432 00:26:29,440 --> 00:26:30,159 Speaker 1: I can see them. 433 00:26:30,000 --> 00:26:42,480 Speaker 2: Flaing off the gossip stript for multiple locations. Just see 434 00:26:42,480 --> 00:26:52,600 Speaker 2: you down, you know, I don't know. 435 00:26:52,720 --> 00:26:54,359 Speaker 1: Doesn't sound like Hamas is in the mood for a 436 00:26:54,400 --> 00:26:55,320 Speaker 1: ceasepire here does. 437 00:26:55,359 --> 00:27:01,320 Speaker 5: It seems like they tried to do it again, try 438 00:27:01,359 --> 00:27:04,520 Speaker 5: to overwhelm the Iron Dome missile defense system firing from 439 00:27:04,560 --> 00:27:06,960 Speaker 5: multiple locations along the border. 440 00:27:07,280 --> 00:27:09,800 Speaker 3: It sounded like a few of those slipped past. There 441 00:27:09,800 --> 00:27:14,280 Speaker 3: were more rockets than explosions, indicating that it certainly wasn't 442 00:27:14,280 --> 00:27:18,440 Speaker 3: one hundred percent success rate. Everyone okay, okay, stand up, 443 00:27:19,480 --> 00:27:21,280 Speaker 3: thank you, all right, we're. 444 00:27:21,160 --> 00:27:21,960 Speaker 1: Gonna get up here. 445 00:27:23,320 --> 00:27:27,280 Speaker 3: So this is just a constant scene here in the 446 00:27:27,320 --> 00:27:30,760 Speaker 3: southern part of the country, Sandra and John, and it 447 00:27:30,840 --> 00:27:33,680 Speaker 3: is the reality of how Hamas and aslam As you're hot, 448 00:27:33,680 --> 00:27:34,480 Speaker 3: are fighting this war. 449 00:27:35,480 --> 00:27:38,639 Speaker 1: That's a reminder I think everybody ought to have. The 450 00:27:39,320 --> 00:27:43,399 Speaker 1: war from Hamas's end is still going on. This is 451 00:27:43,680 --> 00:27:45,639 Speaker 1: what he said. This is a constant scene that you 452 00:27:45,680 --> 00:27:49,160 Speaker 1: have to deal with this is what because Hamas still 453 00:27:49,160 --> 00:27:52,800 Speaker 1: wants to eradicate all the Jews in Israel, they still 454 00:27:52,800 --> 00:27:56,760 Speaker 1: want to destroy all of Israel. That that has not changed. 455 00:27:57,480 --> 00:28:00,480 Speaker 1: They haven't, They have not renounced any of that will. 456 00:28:01,280 --> 00:28:04,240 Speaker 1: And so they're not surrendering. They're not calling they're not 457 00:28:04,600 --> 00:28:08,760 Speaker 1: calling for a cease fire. From their end, they would 458 00:28:08,800 --> 00:28:11,400 Speaker 1: like things to continue the way they're going as long 459 00:28:11,440 --> 00:28:14,960 Speaker 1: as they still get the chance to kill Israelis, kill Jews. 460 00:28:15,320 --> 00:28:18,080 Speaker 1: That's that's what they're here for. That's their reason, that's 461 00:28:18,160 --> 00:28:20,600 Speaker 1: what they say that God tells them to do. 462 00:28:21,080 --> 00:28:25,040 Speaker 6: And Hamas did reject the latest ceasefire proposal on April fourth, 463 00:28:25,200 --> 00:28:25,720 Speaker 6: So of. 464 00:28:25,680 --> 00:28:26,280 Speaker 1: Course they did. 465 00:28:26,359 --> 00:28:29,040 Speaker 6: Israel went to the table and said, these are our demands, 466 00:28:29,119 --> 00:28:30,480 Speaker 6: and Hamas rejected it. 467 00:28:30,560 --> 00:28:32,679 Speaker 1: Yeah, they don't want to cease fire only to the 468 00:28:32,680 --> 00:28:36,520 Speaker 1: point where they can reload, re arm themselves, reorganize. Yeah, 469 00:28:36,600 --> 00:28:39,120 Speaker 1: they'll take a break in the action because that benefits them. 470 00:28:39,800 --> 00:28:45,360 Speaker 1: But a ceasefire means that they stop trying to kill Israelis, 471 00:28:45,520 --> 00:28:48,160 Speaker 1: stop trying to eradicate Jews from the planet. No, never, 472 00:28:48,680 --> 00:28:50,040 Speaker 1: and that's why they have to be wiped out. And 473 00:28:50,040 --> 00:28:52,760 Speaker 1: that's why Israel's doing the right thing. You know what 474 00:28:53,400 --> 00:28:56,040 Speaker 1: they've been talking about, how many tens of thousands of 475 00:28:56,480 --> 00:29:03,960 Speaker 1: Palestinians may have been killed by israel civilians. Do you 476 00:29:03,960 --> 00:29:07,240 Speaker 1: know how many German civilians we killed world War two? 477 00:29:07,360 --> 00:29:10,080 Speaker 1: The Allies, the US, and the Allies killed three hundred 478 00:29:10,080 --> 00:29:13,120 Speaker 1: and fifty thousand of them with their bombs. That's what 479 00:29:13,280 --> 00:29:16,640 Speaker 1: happens during the war. But in both cases Germany and 480 00:29:16,680 --> 00:29:20,480 Speaker 1: Haas they started it, and in this case Hamas is 481 00:29:20,560 --> 00:29:23,640 Speaker 1: intentionally hiding behind civilians. 482 00:29:23,840 --> 00:29:26,520 Speaker 6: They also don't have a military uniform. They wear civilian 483 00:29:26,560 --> 00:29:27,440 Speaker 6: clothes on purpose. 484 00:29:28,000 --> 00:29:31,920 Speaker 1: They're blended, they're blended in at all times, and they 485 00:29:32,040 --> 00:29:37,120 Speaker 1: use the people as shields. So I mean, if we'd 486 00:29:37,160 --> 00:29:40,880 Speaker 1: had a ceasefire in World War two because German civilians 487 00:29:40,880 --> 00:29:44,880 Speaker 1: were dying, Hitler would have won and conquered all of Europe. 488 00:29:45,000 --> 00:29:49,360 Speaker 1: And then what this is what evil is. Evil is relentless. 489 00:29:49,800 --> 00:29:55,240 Speaker 1: Evil doesn't engage in diplomacy, negotiations, cease fires. I guess 490 00:29:55,280 --> 00:30:00,400 Speaker 1: some people's brains can't comprehend that evil is real, but 491 00:30:00,600 --> 00:30:04,080 Speaker 1: it is. And the Israelis know this because they've lived 492 00:30:04,080 --> 00:30:06,840 Speaker 1: with this since day one, so they're not going to stop. 493 00:30:07,560 --> 00:30:10,480 Speaker 1: And Biden is a coward because he's caven into those 494 00:30:11,000 --> 00:30:15,040 Speaker 1: silly fools who march in the streets chanting in rhymes. 495 00:30:15,160 --> 00:30:18,600 Speaker 1: Call them genocide joe, poor blood all over the place, 496 00:30:19,200 --> 00:30:23,479 Speaker 1: just cheap, stupid theater. Those people protesting their lives are 497 00:30:23,520 --> 00:30:27,240 Speaker 1: in danger. The existence of their people are not in danger. 498 00:30:27,600 --> 00:30:33,840 Speaker 1: They're in America dumping dumping. Blood's die.
