1
00:00:00,040 --> 00:00:03,280
Speaker 1: Oh, fuck up to chaos. Another day of chaos. This

2
00:00:03,320 --> 00:00:06,840
Speaker 1: is wonderful. You really are excited the list two days

3
00:00:06,960 --> 00:00:10,280
Speaker 1: the show starts, you're like flat, No, I'm a gonna

4
00:00:10,280 --> 00:00:16,240
Speaker 1: talk about I'm motivated. Yeah, we'll go ahead, show us

5
00:00:16,239 --> 00:00:19,919
Speaker 1: your motivating. No, I just I'm enjoying that the council

6
00:00:19,920 --> 00:00:23,600
Speaker 1: members are refusing to resign. We're supposed to be healing,

7
00:00:23,800 --> 00:00:27,639
Speaker 1: and instead you are like, whippity do happy. I'm picking

8
00:00:27,680 --> 00:00:30,840
Speaker 1: the scab. We're supposed to be still processing this. I'm

9
00:00:30,840 --> 00:00:33,519
Speaker 1: pulling out the stitches. We're supposed to be in shock.

10
00:00:34,680 --> 00:00:38,279
Speaker 1: We're supposed to be trying to reach out. Do you

11
00:00:38,320 --> 00:00:43,159
Speaker 1: know anybody who actually is reeling or in shock and

12
00:00:43,280 --> 00:00:47,239
Speaker 1: royal because they see all these stupid headlines in that

13
00:00:47,400 --> 00:00:50,440
Speaker 1: idiot newspaper we have, and we're all supposed to be

14
00:00:50,560 --> 00:00:53,720
Speaker 1: moaning and sobbing, and really, where does the city go

15
00:00:53,840 --> 00:00:56,960
Speaker 1: from here? How can we get past this? Now? I

16
00:00:57,640 --> 00:01:02,000
Speaker 1: got a monumental crisis? Are just jerk politicians? I know,

17
00:01:02,320 --> 00:01:04,560
Speaker 1: I know, saying what we probably always knew they were

18
00:01:04,600 --> 00:01:07,320
Speaker 1: saying in private that come on, and saying what a

19
00:01:07,319 --> 00:01:10,319
Speaker 1: lot of people people are so naive I know? Or

20
00:01:10,319 --> 00:01:12,600
Speaker 1: are they pretending I don't know. I think that's that's

21
00:01:12,600 --> 00:01:16,080
Speaker 1: the thing. Are they pretending or or they really have

22
00:01:16,160 --> 00:01:20,400
Speaker 1: invested emotionally in these bastards. That's that is the question

23
00:01:20,520 --> 00:01:24,319
Speaker 1: of the whole century that nobody's been able to answer.

24
00:01:24,319 --> 00:01:26,880
Speaker 1: Are you serious, you actually believe in these people? Are

25
00:01:26,959 --> 00:01:29,840
Speaker 1: you just posturing because it's good for your business. Well,

26
00:01:29,880 --> 00:01:31,520
Speaker 1: as far as we know, the three of them have

27
00:01:31,880 --> 00:01:35,399
Speaker 1: not resigned yet, which means the La City Council tried

28
00:01:35,440 --> 00:01:40,240
Speaker 1: again today to the whole discession and well it didn't last.

29
00:01:40,360 --> 00:01:44,119
Speaker 1: We go to Blake Trolley again from Camfi News for

30
00:01:44,240 --> 00:01:47,320
Speaker 1: what happened today. I think less people showed up though,

31
00:01:47,360 --> 00:01:51,520
Speaker 1: didn't they Blake or Yeah, you know, there were noticeably

32
00:01:51,560 --> 00:01:54,720
Speaker 1: fewer people here. But just like yesterday, this meeting was

33
00:01:54,800 --> 00:01:58,360
Speaker 1: completely off to the races. People in the chambers today

34
00:01:58,400 --> 00:02:02,160
Speaker 1: they were chanting no resignation's, no meeting, just an electric crowd,

35
00:02:02,560 --> 00:02:04,240
Speaker 1: let's go to buy one. This just gives you an

36
00:02:04,240 --> 00:02:13,000
Speaker 1: idea of the energy heading into this meeting. Resignations. Now, okay,

37
00:02:14,320 --> 00:02:18,080
Speaker 1: I'd like to know the chants that guy bring in

38
00:02:18,120 --> 00:02:20,480
Speaker 1: his own drum or do they have a drum available

39
00:02:20,560 --> 00:02:22,600
Speaker 1: for a protester? I think I could be wrong, but

40
00:02:22,680 --> 00:02:24,200
Speaker 1: I think he was actually no, I think he was

41
00:02:24,280 --> 00:02:30,720
Speaker 1: hitting like the wood benches, right, people were they were

42
00:02:30,760 --> 00:02:34,480
Speaker 1: they banging on Bonden's head That would make the same sound. Well,

43
00:02:34,520 --> 00:02:37,880
Speaker 1: Bonden was actually not physically president at this meeting. Um,

44
00:02:38,280 --> 00:02:40,680
Speaker 1: well we'll get to that in a second. But yeah,

45
00:02:40,680 --> 00:02:42,800
Speaker 1: so council members they try to start this meeting, but

46
00:02:42,840 --> 00:02:45,919
Speaker 1: the chants are just not stopping their city council members

47
00:02:45,919 --> 00:02:48,880
Speaker 1: are just getting overpowered. We'll go to buy two. This

48
00:02:48,960 --> 00:02:52,120
Speaker 1: is mitcho Farrell, Acting President, trying to get this thing underway.

49
00:02:52,320 --> 00:02:54,560
Speaker 1: We do have a quorum. We are going to start

50
00:02:55,200 --> 00:03:03,760
Speaker 1: with um approval of acts ME twenty two. Thank you.

51
00:03:03,840 --> 00:03:08,320
Speaker 1: We're gonna start with words from mister Bonnon. Mister Bonnen,

52
00:03:09,400 --> 00:03:13,800
Speaker 1: would you like to address the body mister Bonne body?

53
00:03:14,600 --> 00:03:17,239
Speaker 1: Oh is that like Joe Biden asking for the congresswoman

54
00:03:17,280 --> 00:03:21,600
Speaker 1: who's not there? Right? Well, so, yeah, Bonden wasn't there

55
00:03:21,680 --> 00:03:23,720
Speaker 1: because we find out later down the meeting that he

56
00:03:23,760 --> 00:03:28,200
Speaker 1: actually tested positive for COVID. But again, in that situation

57
00:03:28,200 --> 00:03:30,239
Speaker 1: which you just heard their bonnet, he doesn't even try

58
00:03:30,280 --> 00:03:33,400
Speaker 1: to all the second, did de Bonne create a super

59
00:03:33,440 --> 00:03:37,120
Speaker 1: spreader of it? Yeah, yesterday he's speaking emotionally. I mean,

60
00:03:37,120 --> 00:03:41,680
Speaker 1: he could have infected hundreds of people. Well time will

61
00:03:41,720 --> 00:03:45,000
Speaker 1: tell anyways, Bonne on that in that situation, he he

62
00:03:45,040 --> 00:03:47,600
Speaker 1: doesn't even try to speak. So at this point they

63
00:03:47,600 --> 00:03:49,440
Speaker 1: call a recess. They say we're gonna take a five

64
00:03:49,480 --> 00:03:54,480
Speaker 1: minute recess. During that recess, the chance actually start growing.

65
00:03:54,520 --> 00:03:56,880
Speaker 1: They just start getting louder and louder. I'm thinking to myself,

66
00:03:56,880 --> 00:03:58,240
Speaker 1: there's no way they're gonna be able to bring this

67
00:03:58,280 --> 00:04:01,400
Speaker 1: thing back. They try to the chance to continue. They

68
00:04:01,440 --> 00:04:05,480
Speaker 1: pushed the recess again, and the second time Bonden does come.

69
00:04:05,600 --> 00:04:08,640
Speaker 1: You know, he starts speaking remotely. In fact, I didn't

70
00:04:08,640 --> 00:04:10,920
Speaker 1: even know guys that he did test positive for COVID.

71
00:04:10,920 --> 00:04:13,720
Speaker 1: You couldn't even hear what he was saying. Over the chance.

72
00:04:14,960 --> 00:04:16,599
Speaker 1: I think people were able to pick it up, you

73
00:04:16,640 --> 00:04:18,560
Speaker 1: know who were watching the stream, but as far as

74
00:04:18,560 --> 00:04:20,480
Speaker 1: if you were in city council, you just couldn't even

75
00:04:20,520 --> 00:04:24,560
Speaker 1: hear a thing because it was so loud. O'Farrell tries

76
00:04:24,600 --> 00:04:27,360
Speaker 1: to plead with the crowd. They just continue, here's we'll

77
00:04:27,400 --> 00:04:30,440
Speaker 1: go to bite three. This is another official grabs the mic.

78
00:04:30,520 --> 00:04:32,240
Speaker 1: Tries to plead with the crowd again and they're just

79
00:04:32,279 --> 00:04:38,279
Speaker 1: not stopping. So audience, we'd like to take public comment

80
00:04:39,080 --> 00:04:41,080
Speaker 1: so that we can hear what you have to say. Yeah,

81
00:04:42,320 --> 00:04:47,640
Speaker 1: but you have to let the speakers up, so we'd

82
00:04:47,640 --> 00:04:54,120
Speaker 1: like to start public comment. That's O'Farrell, No that you know,

83
00:04:54,120 --> 00:04:55,960
Speaker 1: that's another official. I was trying to figure out who

84
00:04:55,960 --> 00:04:57,359
Speaker 1: it was. It was so hard to even see what

85
00:04:57,440 --> 00:04:59,440
Speaker 1: was going on there too, because everybody's standing up, they're

86
00:04:59,480 --> 00:05:03,279
Speaker 1: holding side. That was somebody else, but O'Farrell does did

87
00:05:03,279 --> 00:05:05,800
Speaker 1: try one last time to calm him down. After that,

88
00:05:05,800 --> 00:05:08,600
Speaker 1: that was it. He brought this thing to an end.

89
00:05:08,640 --> 00:05:11,560
Speaker 1: He announced that the meeting's you know, been pushed till Friday.

90
00:05:11,960 --> 00:05:14,040
Speaker 1: So if farrell holds a pressor right after this, we

91
00:05:14,200 --> 00:05:17,159
Speaker 1: run you know, to this the little press conference room,

92
00:05:17,200 --> 00:05:19,520
Speaker 1: and he told us he understands the anger the frustration

93
00:05:19,600 --> 00:05:22,560
Speaker 1: of the crowd. He then got into the mechanics behind

94
00:05:22,760 --> 00:05:25,640
Speaker 1: why today's meeting was called off. It wasn't just you know,

95
00:05:26,000 --> 00:05:29,360
Speaker 1: protesters exactly, you know, just being there. It was more

96
00:05:29,400 --> 00:05:31,239
Speaker 1: of the formatics of it. If we can go to

97
00:05:31,400 --> 00:05:34,040
Speaker 1: bite four. Was prepared to sit there all day if

98
00:05:34,040 --> 00:05:37,760
Speaker 1: that's what it took. But right around a little after

99
00:05:38,240 --> 00:05:42,360
Speaker 1: eleven o'clock, we lost quorum, mister Harris Dawson had to leave,

100
00:05:42,400 --> 00:05:45,480
Speaker 1: and then we lost korn went from ten to nine.

101
00:05:45,520 --> 00:05:50,359
Speaker 1: So that requires that we adjourn the meeting. Now. I

102
00:05:50,400 --> 00:05:52,480
Speaker 1: want to jump ahead on this thing just a second,

103
00:05:52,480 --> 00:05:55,360
Speaker 1: because we're going to go to after the press conference,

104
00:05:55,400 --> 00:05:58,000
Speaker 1: because they called questions to an end and there was

105
00:05:58,040 --> 00:06:00,160
Speaker 1: a very obvious question I felt like we all had

106
00:06:00,160 --> 00:06:02,440
Speaker 1: to ask. So let's go to bite five. Moving ahead

107
00:06:02,480 --> 00:06:04,360
Speaker 1: here and we'll move back. Let's go to bite five

108
00:06:05,200 --> 00:06:07,360
Speaker 1: because after hearing that, you know, I think this was

109
00:06:07,400 --> 00:06:10,920
Speaker 1: the most obvious thing that went through all of our heads. Um. Yeah,

110
00:06:10,960 --> 00:06:12,800
Speaker 1: I mean I guess the obvious question would be, is

111
00:06:12,800 --> 00:06:15,520
Speaker 1: it disappointing that he left this meeting? I mean, this

112
00:06:15,600 --> 00:06:19,280
Speaker 1: is a pretty important meeting. I'm disappointed that we couldn't

113
00:06:19,279 --> 00:06:23,839
Speaker 1: actually have the meeting, and um, it's uh, it is

114
00:06:23,880 --> 00:06:26,440
Speaker 1: what it is. Um. I was prepared to sit there

115
00:06:26,880 --> 00:06:30,200
Speaker 1: all day into the evening if we needed to, because

116
00:06:30,560 --> 00:06:33,680
Speaker 1: I am here as the acting council president to conduct

117
00:06:33,760 --> 00:06:36,600
Speaker 1: business for the City of Los Angeles, and as council president,

118
00:06:36,640 --> 00:06:38,480
Speaker 1: I mean, is it disappointing that a member would leave

119
00:06:38,520 --> 00:06:41,599
Speaker 1: on a day that people would probably argue is the

120
00:06:41,720 --> 00:06:43,960
Speaker 1: most important day to show up and sit through the

121
00:06:44,120 --> 00:06:46,960
Speaker 1: entirety of the meeting. Well, yesterday was the most important

122
00:06:46,960 --> 00:06:49,240
Speaker 1: to day. Today's the second most important day and uh

123
00:06:49,960 --> 00:06:55,600
Speaker 1: a for him to have stayed that was so why

124
00:06:55,600 --> 00:06:59,160
Speaker 1: did this guy leave? We try to figure that out

125
00:06:59,200 --> 00:07:01,080
Speaker 1: through Farrel said, we have to reach out to A.

126
00:07:01,200 --> 00:07:04,120
Speaker 1: Harris Dotson's office. So I'm working on that. UM. But

127
00:07:04,200 --> 00:07:06,839
Speaker 1: you know, back back to the press or UM O'Farrell

128
00:07:06,839 --> 00:07:10,480
Speaker 1: express this frustration that the three Woltz won't step down.

129
00:07:11,120 --> 00:07:13,800
Speaker 1: He explained that he did advise Da Leone and Sidio

130
00:07:13,880 --> 00:07:15,520
Speaker 1: to not sho up today. Of course we saw them

131
00:07:15,520 --> 00:07:18,760
Speaker 1: show up yesterday. They were met with insane booth so

132
00:07:18,800 --> 00:07:21,840
Speaker 1: they both ended up leaving. Then we got into a

133
00:07:21,920 --> 00:07:23,800
Speaker 1: Q and A and I asked a question, another question

134
00:07:23,840 --> 00:07:26,280
Speaker 1: I think a lot of us are asking, if we

135
00:07:26,320 --> 00:07:31,320
Speaker 1: can go to bite five don't gonna look like three.

136
00:07:32,600 --> 00:07:37,400
Speaker 1: It's it's going to be it's going to be extremely,

137
00:07:37,600 --> 00:07:41,960
Speaker 1: if not impossible, UM, for us to conduct our business.

138
00:07:42,080 --> 00:07:46,560
Speaker 1: And I believe that they will resign. I have no

139
00:07:46,760 --> 00:07:52,440
Speaker 1: verification of that standing here right now. But the emotions

140
00:07:52,520 --> 00:07:55,400
Speaker 1: are only going to flare more and more and more.

141
00:07:55,480 --> 00:07:59,480
Speaker 1: This is not going to calm down. You know, it's

142
00:07:59,520 --> 00:08:04,000
Speaker 1: at a boiler linked point and it's boiling over and

143
00:08:04,160 --> 00:08:08,360
Speaker 1: the only thing that will give us the environment we

144
00:08:08,400 --> 00:08:11,880
Speaker 1: need to do this work is if we if we

145
00:08:12,000 --> 00:08:14,080
Speaker 1: turn down the heat, and the only way to turn

146
00:08:14,120 --> 00:08:17,720
Speaker 1: down that heat is by three resignations, and then we

147
00:08:17,840 --> 00:08:22,600
Speaker 1: have real, real work to do. Guys, protesters today, they

148
00:08:22,640 --> 00:08:25,480
Speaker 1: told me they'll be back Friday, especially if these three

149
00:08:25,600 --> 00:08:28,720
Speaker 1: are still here. There has been some speculation that these

150
00:08:28,760 --> 00:08:30,920
Speaker 1: three might be trying to wait this thing out, and

151
00:08:31,000 --> 00:08:33,880
Speaker 1: you know, you just watch the compounding calls for them

152
00:08:33,920 --> 00:08:35,800
Speaker 1: to leave, and it's like if you guys are trying

153
00:08:35,840 --> 00:08:37,840
Speaker 1: to run away from this, I mean, it's it's kind

154
00:08:37,840 --> 00:08:41,160
Speaker 1: of like running on a treadmill at this point. All right, Blake,

155
00:08:41,200 --> 00:08:44,240
Speaker 1: thank you very much. You got it, a hi, Blake,

156
00:08:44,280 --> 00:08:47,400
Speaker 1: cholie Ki if I do is covering more chaos today.

157
00:08:47,480 --> 00:08:49,640
Speaker 1: This is what the rest of the city should do

158
00:08:50,200 --> 00:08:52,839
Speaker 1: and get, you know, so they get rid of all

159
00:08:52,880 --> 00:08:59,280
Speaker 1: their pro homeless laws and anti police laws. Maybe everybody

160
00:08:59,320 --> 00:09:02,920
Speaker 1: should go in and scream at the city council until

161
00:09:02,920 --> 00:09:05,040
Speaker 1: they shut down the meeting and just keep doing it

162
00:09:05,440 --> 00:09:07,680
Speaker 1: until they start clearing the homeless off the street. And

163
00:09:07,720 --> 00:09:10,840
Speaker 1: the police start arresting the criminals again. You need to

164
00:09:10,880 --> 00:09:13,720
Speaker 1: start a new mob. Yeah, it's it's a problem because

165
00:09:14,840 --> 00:09:19,040
Speaker 1: everyone else works. This crowd clearly does not work. So

166
00:09:20,360 --> 00:09:22,360
Speaker 1: this crowd is pretty far from wanting to clear out

167
00:09:22,360 --> 00:09:24,320
Speaker 1: the homeless. A lot of these are the activists. But

168
00:09:24,400 --> 00:09:26,560
Speaker 1: the thing is, we could we could play that game too.

169
00:09:26,640 --> 00:09:29,000
Speaker 1: We could go in there and scream and yell. You know,

170
00:09:29,040 --> 00:09:31,080
Speaker 1: I could bring a drum in and bang the drum.

171
00:09:31,520 --> 00:09:36,280
Speaker 1: Bull horn, get get the bullhorn. And apparently the city

172
00:09:36,360 --> 00:09:40,600
Speaker 1: is hamstrung here. They they're stuck because they have to

173
00:09:40,640 --> 00:09:44,200
Speaker 1: have their meetings in public and they can't do that.

174
00:09:44,960 --> 00:09:46,720
Speaker 1: And there are people don't want to quit and they

175
00:09:46,720 --> 00:09:49,880
Speaker 1: can't be removed. Yeah, you know the rule that we

176
00:09:49,920 --> 00:09:51,920
Speaker 1: site all the time on the show, wait three days,

177
00:09:52,000 --> 00:09:55,240
Speaker 1: so we're there now, Is that what they're doing? They

178
00:09:55,280 --> 00:09:56,880
Speaker 1: want to wait three days and see if the shakes

179
00:09:56,880 --> 00:09:59,720
Speaker 1: out any differently? Why are they not quitting? It's it's strange.

180
00:10:00,040 --> 00:10:03,160
Speaker 1: Told you it's good money. What are they going to

181
00:10:03,240 --> 00:10:05,560
Speaker 1: do for a living? I know? But oh I see.

182
00:10:05,600 --> 00:10:08,719
Speaker 1: So if they don't quit, then in a month or

183
00:10:08,760 --> 00:10:11,160
Speaker 1: two months, nobody'd be talking about this anymore, and they

184
00:10:11,240 --> 00:10:12,880
Speaker 1: might be able to show up or they're gonna keep

185
00:10:12,880 --> 00:10:17,360
Speaker 1: getting a paycheck every day they're another day they get paid. Yeah.

186
00:10:17,559 --> 00:10:20,560
Speaker 1: Are there rules though, concerning their attendance and that kind

187
00:10:20,559 --> 00:10:23,520
Speaker 1: of thing? Is there something they have to to get paid?

188
00:10:23,559 --> 00:10:25,440
Speaker 1: They have to actually, you know, I actually read some

189
00:10:25,480 --> 00:10:29,679
Speaker 1: of the city charter they our board there No, there

190
00:10:29,720 --> 00:10:31,240
Speaker 1: was a link to it in the La Times. It

191
00:10:31,360 --> 00:10:34,199
Speaker 1: was a question and answer about what can the city

192
00:10:34,200 --> 00:10:36,800
Speaker 1: do to get rid of these guys, like under what condition? Yeah,

193
00:10:36,800 --> 00:10:39,200
Speaker 1: it's apparently only recall is about all you got. Yeah,

194
00:10:39,200 --> 00:10:43,040
Speaker 1: you got the recall. But the city council itself cannot

195
00:10:43,600 --> 00:10:48,520
Speaker 1: suspend or remove. They cannot. This is not a criminal case.

196
00:10:48,600 --> 00:10:51,200
Speaker 1: The only exception was if if there was there was

197
00:10:51,280 --> 00:10:55,800
Speaker 1: somebody who had an extreme physical you know, like an

198
00:10:55,840 --> 00:11:00,000
Speaker 1: ill disability or something that it turned them in common

199
00:11:00,040 --> 00:11:03,720
Speaker 1: but in some way they moved to censure them. Whoa,

200
00:11:04,280 --> 00:11:06,760
Speaker 1: oh that is such bs and then they're trying to

201
00:11:06,800 --> 00:11:10,680
Speaker 1: remove them from their committee. Yeah, they have chairmanships, chairmans

202
00:11:10,880 --> 00:11:13,600
Speaker 1: like I think the housing one is sadio. But they

203
00:11:13,600 --> 00:11:15,760
Speaker 1: get still still get paid. See, they have to be

204
00:11:15,800 --> 00:11:21,600
Speaker 1: physically incapacitated and unable to remove themselves on their own

205
00:11:21,720 --> 00:11:23,640
Speaker 1: because Let's say a guy had a stroke, right, and

206
00:11:23,640 --> 00:11:26,160
Speaker 1: he can't say I'm quitting, he can't communicate, he's just

207
00:11:26,320 --> 00:11:29,080
Speaker 1: he's he's a vegetable. So I guess they can remove

208
00:11:29,160 --> 00:11:31,640
Speaker 1: him in that case. But short of that, and short

209
00:11:31,679 --> 00:11:34,880
Speaker 1: of being being charged with a felony, like Mark Ridley

210
00:11:34,880 --> 00:11:39,200
Speaker 1: Thomas was there was actually was surprised that there was

211
00:11:39,240 --> 00:11:43,040
Speaker 1: no provision for this kind of an emergency. That is

212
00:11:43,080 --> 00:11:45,440
Speaker 1: what they did with speech, and that makes it difficult

213
00:11:45,679 --> 00:11:48,640
Speaker 1: because somebody says something you don't like, right, they've got it.

214
00:11:48,720 --> 00:11:53,360
Speaker 1: They've got an opinion that people disagree with. All Right,

215
00:11:53,360 --> 00:11:55,760
Speaker 1: we'll talk more. We're gonna take a break. Johnny ken

216
00:11:55,800 --> 00:11:58,840
Speaker 1: KF I am six forty live everywhere on the iHeartRadio app.

217
00:12:03,320 --> 00:12:07,840
Speaker 1: We have breaking news, Yes we do. La City Councilman

218
00:12:07,960 --> 00:12:12,760
Speaker 1: Uri Martinez has resigned from the council. This just broke

219
00:12:12,920 --> 00:12:17,240
Speaker 1: right now, So we right now. Martinez has gone no

220
00:12:17,320 --> 00:12:20,600
Speaker 1: word yet on Kevin de Leone or Gills Thedo, but

221
00:12:21,480 --> 00:12:25,840
Speaker 1: La City Councilman Nouri Martinez has resigned from the city council.

222
00:12:25,960 --> 00:12:27,839
Speaker 1: You know, I am a little disappointed. I was hoping

223
00:12:27,840 --> 00:12:35,760
Speaker 1: for a long standoff daily rioting at city Hall well,

224
00:12:35,840 --> 00:12:37,760
Speaker 1: I think they're still gonna go. I love it too.

225
00:12:37,800 --> 00:12:42,800
Speaker 1: Haven't resigned by Friday. De Leon de Leon and he's

226
00:12:42,840 --> 00:12:45,079
Speaker 1: my man. He's gonna hold out. He's not going to

227
00:12:45,160 --> 00:12:48,480
Speaker 1: coward to the mob, to the crowd. Yeah, he's the

228
00:12:48,480 --> 00:12:51,240
Speaker 1: one with the future. Gilsado is sixty eight. He's already

229
00:12:51,280 --> 00:12:53,840
Speaker 1: lost the election for city council, so he's done in

230
00:12:53,880 --> 00:12:55,280
Speaker 1: a couple of months. He may hang on just to

231
00:12:55,280 --> 00:12:59,040
Speaker 1: collect his money. Yeah, but de Leone ran from mayor

232
00:12:59,040 --> 00:13:00,920
Speaker 1: and really believes he as a future. I mean he

233
00:13:01,040 --> 00:13:04,439
Speaker 1: was the state Senate president for a while. Yes, yeah.

234
00:13:04,960 --> 00:13:08,640
Speaker 1: For some reason, other politicians are really enamored with him.

235
00:13:09,000 --> 00:13:10,800
Speaker 1: They treat him like he is some kind of big,

236
00:13:11,080 --> 00:13:14,280
Speaker 1: big star. I don't understand. Kevin, come on, recite the

237
00:13:14,280 --> 00:13:16,680
Speaker 1: pledge of allegiance. Oh yes, how about yes, let's have

238
00:13:17,000 --> 00:13:18,920
Speaker 1: Kevin de Leon. Now you can see if you've never

239
00:13:18,960 --> 00:13:20,920
Speaker 1: heard this, you can see what kind of genius deallyon.

240
00:13:23,480 --> 00:13:27,120
Speaker 1: Because yet a lot of people are getting their first

241
00:13:27,200 --> 00:13:30,839
Speaker 1: impression of him. Really, uh in this in this case,

242
00:13:31,080 --> 00:13:33,280
Speaker 1: right this, this story has reached a lot of people

243
00:13:33,280 --> 00:13:36,240
Speaker 1: who ordinarily wouldn't know who de Leon is man a president.

244
00:13:36,280 --> 00:13:39,160
Speaker 1: Today is Tuesday in time for the flag salute. Can

245
00:13:39,240 --> 00:13:41,720
Speaker 1: you please um leaders in the pledge of allegiance this morning?

246
00:13:42,320 --> 00:13:48,360
Speaker 1: I think very much, man presidence be another a pledge

247
00:13:48,400 --> 00:13:57,439
Speaker 1: allegiance to the flag of the United States America, unevisible

248
00:13:58,600 --> 00:14:06,480
Speaker 1: pledge allegiance to the Flag of the United States of America. Well,

249
00:14:06,480 --> 00:14:11,360
Speaker 1: what just stands one nation under God, indivisible with liberty

250
00:14:11,600 --> 00:14:25,240
Speaker 1: and justice for all. Move Well, I imagine how the

251
00:14:25,240 --> 00:14:27,960
Speaker 1: other two will follow suits and quit? People will vote

252
00:14:28,000 --> 00:14:30,960
Speaker 1: for any diet. Oh, we have a statement now from

253
00:14:31,040 --> 00:14:34,960
Speaker 1: Nurie Martinez. Ah, what's that? It is with a broken

254
00:14:35,040 --> 00:14:38,200
Speaker 1: heart that I resigned my seat for Council District six,

255
00:14:38,400 --> 00:14:43,040
Speaker 1: the community I grew up in and my home. Is it?

256
00:14:43,680 --> 00:14:52,320
Speaker 1: That's it? A broken heart, broken wallet? Yea more serious? Yeah, Well,

257
00:14:54,680 --> 00:15:00,760
Speaker 1: I'd love to hear a whole Nuriy Martinez album of

258
00:15:00,880 --> 00:15:03,600
Speaker 1: all the things that she said in private about people.

259
00:15:04,680 --> 00:15:07,160
Speaker 1: I bet you you could play, you know, just weeks

260
00:15:07,160 --> 00:15:10,960
Speaker 1: and weeks of tapes Nouri Martinez behind closed doors, trashing

261
00:15:11,000 --> 00:15:16,480
Speaker 1: everybody in sight. Well they got one down, two to go. Well,

262
00:15:16,480 --> 00:15:18,200
Speaker 1: they'll still be there Friday. These are the two. Have

263
00:15:18,280 --> 00:15:21,760
Speaker 1: him quit by then and they'll come anyway, because this

264
00:15:21,760 --> 00:15:24,160
Speaker 1: this is exciting for them, this crowd that's showing up.

265
00:15:24,160 --> 00:15:25,920
Speaker 1: Oh we got yeah, that's right. They there's meaning to

266
00:15:25,960 --> 00:15:28,560
Speaker 1: their life. They think they're part of, you know, a

267
00:15:28,640 --> 00:15:31,240
Speaker 1: great cause, a higher purpose. Oh yeah, and that dope

268
00:15:31,280 --> 00:15:33,920
Speaker 1: Mitchell Farrell saying, oh, we'll just stay all day if

269
00:15:33,960 --> 00:15:36,200
Speaker 1: we have to. He couldn't because one of the councilmen left,

270
00:15:36,200 --> 00:15:38,120
Speaker 1: but they would stay too. They'll stay all day unto

271
00:15:38,160 --> 00:15:40,160
Speaker 1: the night too. They need ten out last year, they

272
00:15:40,160 --> 00:15:42,440
Speaker 1: need ten people for a quorum, and they went down

273
00:15:42,440 --> 00:15:44,920
Speaker 1: to nine. Who else didn't show up because I know

274
00:15:45,200 --> 00:15:51,160
Speaker 1: because Bonnen didn't and the three uh three people on

275
00:15:51,240 --> 00:15:57,560
Speaker 1: the four and then the black all right he left.

276
00:15:57,600 --> 00:15:59,640
Speaker 1: That's five. There must have been a sixth person who

277
00:15:59,640 --> 00:16:02,560
Speaker 1: didn't buy to show up for work. He said they

278
00:16:02,600 --> 00:16:05,480
Speaker 1: need nine, they need ten, they need ten. Yeah, because

279
00:16:05,680 --> 00:16:08,160
Speaker 1: he said, we went from ten to nine, So I

280
00:16:08,240 --> 00:16:10,480
Speaker 1: have five apstion tease, I don't know who the sixth

281
00:16:10,520 --> 00:16:14,400
Speaker 1: one was. N I don't know. I would just Bonden

282
00:16:14,400 --> 00:16:18,120
Speaker 1: count because he's on zoom. I don't know if he counts.

283
00:16:18,240 --> 00:16:21,920
Speaker 1: I mean they did their meetings on zoom during COVID,

284
00:16:22,920 --> 00:16:26,120
Speaker 1: so I don't know. Now. Meanwhile, the Attorney General just

285
00:16:26,160 --> 00:16:29,520
Speaker 1: wants to stick his beak into this. Just announced an

286
00:16:29,520 --> 00:16:34,360
Speaker 1: investigation into LA's redistricting process that took place last fall.

287
00:16:35,120 --> 00:16:38,280
Speaker 1: Since this, don't forget these recordings are a year ago,

288
00:16:39,000 --> 00:16:41,360
Speaker 1: and that's what they were talking about. So they've already

289
00:16:41,400 --> 00:16:45,760
Speaker 1: finished with the city council district boundaries. But a year ago,

290
00:16:45,840 --> 00:16:48,200
Speaker 1: these three, along with this labor leader r on horreror,

291
00:16:48,280 --> 00:16:51,360
Speaker 1: we're talking about their problems with it. So I don't

292
00:16:51,360 --> 00:16:54,760
Speaker 1: know if he's just didn't really provide a lot of specifics,

293
00:16:55,480 --> 00:16:57,840
Speaker 1: but he came to downtown LA for a news conference

294
00:16:57,920 --> 00:17:00,920
Speaker 1: today to announce we'll bring the truth light. He really

295
00:17:00,920 --> 00:17:02,840
Speaker 1: got on a plane for this. Huh he did, yes,

296
00:17:02,880 --> 00:17:05,399
Speaker 1: because he's running for reelection, right, I don't know that

297
00:17:05,440 --> 00:17:08,600
Speaker 1: it's a close race. None of these statewide democrats race

298
00:17:08,640 --> 00:17:11,240
Speaker 1: for governor one day, So this is uh, you know,

299
00:17:11,280 --> 00:17:13,320
Speaker 1: he's got to start becoming familiar, he's got to raise

300
00:17:13,400 --> 00:17:16,679
Speaker 1: his profile. Yeah, well, we're asking you to vote for

301
00:17:16,760 --> 00:17:19,720
Speaker 1: Nathan Hawkman anyway. Yeah, that's on our voter guide. Yeah,

302
00:17:19,800 --> 00:17:22,320
Speaker 1: that would be a far better situation. It would be

303
00:17:22,440 --> 00:17:25,760
Speaker 1: bill unlikely because Sina Bunt is one of these entrenched

304
00:17:25,840 --> 00:17:30,880
Speaker 1: Democrats that it never seems to go away. All right,

305
00:17:30,920 --> 00:17:33,480
Speaker 1: we got more coming up. We'll be talking again about

306
00:17:33,520 --> 00:17:35,960

Speaker 1: with the Moist Line. You want to be a part

310
00:17:43,720 --> 00:17:45,400
Speaker 1: of it. I guess there's a little bit to talk

311
00:17:45,440 --> 00:17:48,880
Speaker 1: about this week. Drop a message using the iHeartRadio app,

312
00:17:48,920 --> 00:17:51,840
Speaker 1: the microphone icon, or just call that toll free number,

313
00:17:51,880 --> 00:17:54,480
Speaker 1: that old Moist line one eight seven seven Moist eighty

314
00:17:54,560 --> 00:17:58,080
Speaker 1: six one eight seven seven six six four seven eighty

315
00:17:58,119 --> 00:18:01,760
Speaker 1: eight six Again the break ain't no. Nori Martinez did

316
00:18:01,840 --> 00:18:04,800
Speaker 1: quit the La City Council. That's right this time, Yes,

317
00:18:04,920 --> 00:18:07,400
Speaker 1: because some of the media's reporting she quit when sheili

318
00:18:07,480 --> 00:18:11,040
Speaker 1: quit as president of the council, A big distinction. We

319
00:18:11,160 --> 00:18:14,960
Speaker 1: caught that yesterday. Even the president's spokeshole got it wrong.

320
00:18:15,040 --> 00:18:17,840
Speaker 1: She gave up her seat. Now there's two ways to

321
00:18:17,880 --> 00:18:21,440
Speaker 1: replace these uh these demrods. Is you either have a

322
00:18:21,480 --> 00:18:25,720
Speaker 1: special election or the rest of the city council can

323
00:18:25,760 --> 00:18:30,120
Speaker 1: appoint a replacement. Generally, though, since there's two years left

324
00:18:30,160 --> 00:18:33,760
Speaker 1: on Nouri Martinez and Kevin de Leone's term. That means

325
00:18:33,800 --> 00:18:37,800
Speaker 1: they will have a special election in the near future.

326
00:18:38,640 --> 00:18:41,560
Speaker 1: All right, another question, they will get more woke people

327
00:18:41,720 --> 00:18:43,960
Speaker 1: on the council. I don't think the woke people are

328
00:18:43,960 --> 00:18:48,840
Speaker 1: represented enough. What No, I think that woke people are

329
00:18:48,840 --> 00:18:53,040
Speaker 1: discriminated against political bodies. At least two more woke people

330
00:18:53,080 --> 00:18:56,240
Speaker 1: coming on Democrats, Socialists. I think there's I think they

331
00:18:56,240 --> 00:18:59,880
Speaker 1: should be a supermajority because their policies work so well. Look,

332
00:19:00,280 --> 00:19:02,760
Speaker 1: all right, all right, us and woke politics. Great, it's

333
00:19:02,800 --> 00:19:07,240
Speaker 1: a wonderful place. Yeah, they're absolutely right, very clean, pretty city. Look,

334
00:19:08,359 --> 00:19:10,640
Speaker 1: it's not like you have people dying in the streets,

335
00:19:10,680 --> 00:19:13,560
Speaker 1: living in the streets by the tens of thousands right now.

336
00:19:13,680 --> 00:19:17,159
Speaker 1: Biden's arriving later on what I thought might be funny,

337
00:19:17,320 --> 00:19:19,919
Speaker 1: And you know, I wouldn't put it beneath them. You

338
00:19:19,960 --> 00:19:23,920
Speaker 1: know how they're often greeted by local officials. You would

339
00:19:23,920 --> 00:19:26,400
Speaker 1: think that Newsom would go there to haunt him about

340
00:19:26,520 --> 00:19:29,280
Speaker 1: are you gonna run? Please, don't run, You're not gonna run.

341
00:19:29,320 --> 00:19:32,560
Speaker 1: Are you don't run? I'm ready, I'm ready. And then

342
00:19:32,600 --> 00:19:35,960
Speaker 1: Garcetti goes there, Please point meat into you, Please, please

343
00:19:36,040 --> 00:19:38,480
Speaker 1: get down on one knee. Don't you think that would happen.

344
00:19:38,480 --> 00:19:40,399
Speaker 1: I wouldn't be the first time they would both have

345
00:19:40,480 --> 00:19:43,159
Speaker 1: something to plead. Uh, yeah, I think. I don't think

346
00:19:43,200 --> 00:19:48,000
Speaker 1: the Secret Service is gonna let Newsom near Biden. Why oh,

347
00:19:48,080 --> 00:19:50,479
Speaker 1: because he might try to Ye, news might trip him,

348
00:19:51,800 --> 00:19:54,480
Speaker 1: and that would be that would here, Joe, here's a bicycle.

349
00:19:55,320 --> 00:19:56,840
Speaker 1: That would be all it takes to take them out

350
00:19:58,000 --> 00:20:03,159
Speaker 1: for a run. Yeah there, Joe, Joe, Joe, do you

351
00:20:03,200 --> 00:20:06,960
Speaker 1: know where you are? Newson might give him the umbrella. Yeah, Yo,

352
00:20:07,080 --> 00:20:09,000
Speaker 1: he's going to a place called Brentwood on the West

353
00:20:09,000 --> 00:20:10,840
Speaker 1: Side for a fundraise here, you know anything about that?

354
00:20:11,040 --> 00:20:15,600
Speaker 1: Tell me? I wonder what weasels, what left wing, progressive,

355
00:20:15,720 --> 00:20:20,280
Speaker 1: woke democratic weasel couples are hosting Joe Biden. It's ten

356
00:20:20,560 --> 00:20:24,199
Speaker 1: thousand dollars a couple, and the host couples. If you

357
00:20:24,240 --> 00:20:26,800
Speaker 1: want to be listed on the on the letterhead, on

358
00:20:26,800 --> 00:20:29,440
Speaker 1: the invitation as a host couple, you have to throw

359
00:20:29,480 --> 00:20:32,520
Speaker 1: in fifty thousand dollars. Can you imagine throwing in fifty

360
00:20:32,520 --> 00:20:35,200
Speaker 1: thousand dollars for the good of Joe Biden and the Democrats?

361
00:20:35,280 --> 00:20:38,480
Speaker 1: But you look at over and the shaker right, you're

362
00:20:38,560 --> 00:20:41,280
Speaker 1: you're you're something. You're on the A list. You're you're

363
00:20:41,119 --> 00:20:46,040
Speaker 1: you're You're on the A list. All right, you are

364
00:20:46,119 --> 00:20:50,240
Speaker 1: one big a no. And then Joe's heading up to

365
00:20:50,240 --> 00:20:52,680
Speaker 1: Oregon to see if he can help a Democrat running

366
00:20:52,720 --> 00:20:54,520
Speaker 1: there for a governor who's in trouble in the polls,

367
00:20:54,640 --> 00:20:57,440
Speaker 1: so they I'm not elected a Republican in Oregon since

368
00:20:57,760 --> 00:21:01,040
Speaker 1: nineteen eighty two. Right, the currents has a crack at

369
00:21:01,040 --> 00:21:03,040
Speaker 1: it because it's a three way race. It's a three

370
00:21:03,080 --> 00:21:04,560
Speaker 1: way race with a woman that used to be a

371
00:21:04,600 --> 00:21:06,960
Speaker 1: Democrat but now is running as an independent. So it's

372
00:21:07,000 --> 00:21:10,960
Speaker 1: making it really really close. Yeah, that's one worth watching.

373
00:21:11,040 --> 00:21:13,760
Speaker 1: That's what we need more of. All right, Well, last

374
00:21:13,880 --> 00:21:19,400
Speaker 1: night was the last LA mayor's debate between Rick Caruso

375
00:21:19,560 --> 00:21:23,520
Speaker 1: and Karen bass. I would say, you know, I see

376
00:21:23,560 --> 00:21:26,480
Speaker 1: all these clips on the cutsheet here, but really to

377
00:21:26,560 --> 00:21:29,080
Speaker 1: hear them react to the big scandal story? Do you want?

378
00:21:29,080 --> 00:21:31,800
Speaker 1: Don't want to hear that? Does anybody? They were They're outraged,

379
00:21:31,840 --> 00:21:33,879
Speaker 1: they were appalled, and we need healing. Did I just

380
00:21:33,920 --> 00:21:36,840
Speaker 1: summarize it? Well? And I will be a healer. What

381
00:21:38,000 --> 00:21:40,800
Speaker 1: it shows that we need to I'm looking around on

382
00:21:40,840 --> 00:21:42,919
Speaker 1: my body for an open wound because I don't know

383
00:21:42,960 --> 00:21:45,679
Speaker 1: what's supposed to be healed. You haven't been cut. I

384
00:21:45,680 --> 00:21:47,919
Speaker 1: don't have a story. You are a city of LA voters,

385
00:21:48,520 --> 00:21:50,399
Speaker 1: I know are more hurt than I am. I should

386
00:21:50,400 --> 00:21:53,119
Speaker 1: be Debra Mark two. She's an LA city person, I am.

387
00:21:53,160 --> 00:21:54,919
Speaker 1: Do you have any wounds on you? I do, as

388
00:21:54,920 --> 00:21:57,280
Speaker 1: a matter of fact. Do you need some healing cutting

389
00:21:57,280 --> 00:22:01,320
Speaker 1: yourself again? Do you have some neo sporne or something? Yeah,

390
00:22:01,560 --> 00:22:04,960
Speaker 1: it's like, what am I supposed to heal my psyche?

391
00:22:04,960 --> 00:22:08,000
Speaker 1: I guess I have a wounded psyche. But I think

392
00:22:08,560 --> 00:22:10,960
Speaker 1: and for the only moments it's getting any attention is

393
00:22:11,040 --> 00:22:13,520
Speaker 1: right here in cut nine. We got to just start

394
00:22:13,560 --> 00:22:16,320
Speaker 1: with this. So Eric play cut nine. The next mayor

395
00:22:16,600 --> 00:22:20,680
Speaker 1: of Los Angeles will be either an African American woman

396
00:22:20,960 --> 00:22:27,280
Speaker 1: or a white man. I'm Italian Italian Americans, thank you.

397
00:22:29,960 --> 00:22:33,080
Speaker 1: Well they're laughing, Okay, Yeah, But do you think he

398
00:22:33,160 --> 00:22:35,520
Speaker 1: was playing around there or is he trying to, well,

399
00:22:35,600 --> 00:22:38,200
Speaker 1: you know, one, position himself differently than as a white man. Well,

400
00:22:38,240 --> 00:22:41,320
Speaker 1: you know something, Some years ago I would have thought

401
00:22:41,920 --> 00:22:44,000
Speaker 1: he was just joking around, that there was nothing to it.

402
00:22:44,480 --> 00:22:47,040
Speaker 1: And then a few years ago my wife told me

403
00:22:47,280 --> 00:22:50,199
Speaker 1: how when she was a kid. She's Italian, she was

404
00:22:50,280 --> 00:22:53,040
Speaker 1: not considered white. I said, what are you talking about.

405
00:22:53,080 --> 00:22:55,719
Speaker 1: She goes, oh, no, I got a lot of crap

406
00:22:55,760 --> 00:22:59,840
Speaker 1: at school. So did Italian families. We weren't considered white.

407
00:23:00,600 --> 00:23:03,280
Speaker 1: We weren't quite considered black, but we were closer to

408
00:23:03,320 --> 00:23:05,240
Speaker 1: black than white. I go, really, because it just didn't

409
00:23:05,240 --> 00:23:08,120
Speaker 1: happen in my town. She goes, no, no, really, And

410
00:23:08,200 --> 00:23:10,439
Speaker 1: so I started looking this stuff up. And there's an

411
00:23:10,520 --> 00:23:14,440
Speaker 1: Italian American Museum in downtown Los Angeles which is really good,

412
00:23:14,480 --> 00:23:17,439
Speaker 1: which we went to some weeks ago, and they had

413
00:23:17,440 --> 00:23:21,960
Speaker 1: a whole exhibit on this. They brought the Italians in

414
00:23:22,680 --> 00:23:25,440
Speaker 1: because they, you know, there was there was this huge

415
00:23:25,480 --> 00:23:28,720
Speaker 1: migration from Europe to the United States and a lot

416
00:23:28,760 --> 00:23:31,640
Speaker 1: of workers were needed, and also a lot of workers

417
00:23:31,640 --> 00:23:34,840
Speaker 1: were needed down south to replace the slaves. So when

418
00:23:34,840 --> 00:23:37,160
Speaker 1: they came to this country, the Italians were looked at

419
00:23:37,200 --> 00:23:40,320
Speaker 1: as the next thing over from black people, and so

420
00:23:40,359 --> 00:23:44,000
Speaker 1: they were discriminated against and abused and in some cases lynched.

421
00:23:44,040 --> 00:23:45,880
Speaker 1: I'd never heard this, and I'm looking and yeah, there's

422
00:23:45,880 --> 00:23:49,600
Speaker 1: there's photographs in the museum of all these lynched Italians.

423
00:23:50,280 --> 00:23:54,200
Speaker 1: And so I started looking it up online and they

424
00:23:55,240 --> 00:23:58,760
Speaker 1: they had like really funky census forms back then, or

425
00:23:58,840 --> 00:24:03,080
Speaker 1: immigration forms. An Italian was a separate box from white

426
00:24:04,280 --> 00:24:07,920
Speaker 1: and I remember as a kid and I didn't understand this,

427
00:24:08,880 --> 00:24:13,560
Speaker 1: but I came from an all Polish family. Everybody in

428
00:24:13,600 --> 00:24:17,640
Speaker 1: my family was either directly from Poland or they were

429
00:24:17,680 --> 00:24:21,359
Speaker 1: born to Polish immigrants. And when I was six years old,

430
00:24:22,240 --> 00:24:25,920
Speaker 1: one of the cousins, Polish cousins was marrying an Italian.

431
00:24:26,080 --> 00:24:29,119
Speaker 1: I was six and the whole family was in an uproar.

432
00:24:29,560 --> 00:24:33,600
Speaker 1: But my extended family just everybody's crazy about this. There

433
00:24:33,640 --> 00:24:35,520
Speaker 1: was near boycotts and there was just me a lot

434
00:24:35,520 --> 00:24:37,960
Speaker 1: of stress. Intention I remember going to the wedding. Things

435
00:24:38,000 --> 00:24:40,280
Speaker 1: eventually calmed down and they went onto a happy life.

436
00:24:40,640 --> 00:24:42,360
Speaker 1: And by the time I married my wife, that had

437
00:24:42,359 --> 00:24:46,680
Speaker 1: all died down. But I remember in eighth grade there

438
00:24:46,760 --> 00:24:48,600
Speaker 1: was an Italian girl around the block for me, and

439
00:24:48,600 --> 00:24:50,760
Speaker 1: I had a crush on her, and she used to

440
00:24:50,800 --> 00:24:53,040
Speaker 1: come over. She liked me a little bit, and she

441
00:24:53,119 --> 00:24:55,200
Speaker 1: used to come over and wanted me to do her homework.

442
00:24:56,400 --> 00:24:58,840
Speaker 1: I think that's why she liked you well, of course,

443
00:24:59,000 --> 00:25:00,879
Speaker 1: because he was the first wanting to use me. Get

444
00:25:00,920 --> 00:25:02,720
Speaker 1: the geeky guy to do my homework. Oh yeah, might

445
00:25:02,760 --> 00:25:04,679
Speaker 1: she gave me a kiss. That's where I had my

446
00:25:04,720 --> 00:25:09,000
Speaker 1: first kiss. And then she started calling me up, and

447
00:25:09,080 --> 00:25:11,240
Speaker 1: this freaked out my mother. In fact, I saw my

448
00:25:11,280 --> 00:25:13,919
Speaker 1: brother a few weeks ago and he remembered this. Her

449
00:25:14,000 --> 00:25:16,840
Speaker 1: name was Gina, and she'd call up. My mother would

450
00:25:16,880 --> 00:25:20,080
Speaker 1: freak out, and you know, she was afraid that we

451
00:25:20,080 --> 00:25:22,239
Speaker 1: were already plotting to have children together and we were

452
00:25:22,240 --> 00:25:24,920
Speaker 1: gonna get married. And my mother was all upset because

453
00:25:24,920 --> 00:25:28,159
Speaker 1: she was Italian. Now by time I got married, I

454
00:25:28,280 --> 00:25:31,040
Speaker 1: was like thirty years old, and I guess they were

455
00:25:31,040 --> 00:25:34,520
Speaker 1: just so grateful I was marrying anybody. They didn't object,

456
00:25:34,720 --> 00:25:36,960
Speaker 1: They didn't object, and all that there was, there was

457
00:25:37,000 --> 00:25:39,760
Speaker 1: never any any trouble. They had just gotten older and wiser.

458
00:25:40,000 --> 00:25:43,960
Speaker 1: So I and I looked this up too. In Europe,

459
00:25:44,480 --> 00:25:50,800
Speaker 1: I'm talking European standards that whole Mediterranean range from Spain

460
00:25:50,920 --> 00:25:55,600
Speaker 1: all the way to Greece. Those people considered themselves Latin. Yeah,

461
00:25:55,680 --> 00:25:58,399
Speaker 1: I'm seeing an expert say this Latin something. In southern

462
00:25:58,400 --> 00:26:00,600
Speaker 1: Europe you'll hear people refer to themselves his Latin. That

463
00:26:00,640 --> 00:26:03,640
Speaker 1: includes people who were Spanish, Portuguese, French, and Italian yeah,

464
00:26:03,680 --> 00:26:06,560
Speaker 1: and that Carusoe is very tied into his heritage and

465
00:26:06,640 --> 00:26:08,520
Speaker 1: he spends a fair amount of time in Italy when

466
00:26:08,520 --> 00:26:10,919
Speaker 1: he goes on vacation, so I just think he's it

467
00:26:11,000 --> 00:26:13,080
Speaker 1: was a joke, but it was a joke based on

468
00:26:13,359 --> 00:26:17,040
Speaker 1: his knowledge of how Italians think of themselves. And yeah,

469
00:26:17,160 --> 00:26:20,359
Speaker 1: they were treating anybody who's looking at this race is

470
00:26:20,359 --> 00:26:22,600
Speaker 1: not going to perceive him as anything but a white guy.

471
00:26:23,440 --> 00:26:26,000
Speaker 1: It's the woke a hole. But it also comes to

472
00:26:26,080 --> 00:26:29,399
Speaker 1: what we were talking about yesterday when they were picking

473
00:26:29,400 --> 00:26:33,160
Speaker 1: on the Wahakans. Right. Yeah, in any country, in any

474
00:26:33,160 --> 00:26:35,840
Speaker 1: part of the world, particularly in the more ignorant past,

475
00:26:36,320 --> 00:26:40,280
Speaker 1: people who were darker shades were always considered inferior. And

476
00:26:40,320 --> 00:26:44,680
Speaker 1: that's especially in Italy, the southern Italians. Yeah, we're often

477
00:26:44,760 --> 00:26:48,760
Speaker 1: darker Cistilians, and they were discriminated. Again, it's just the

478
00:26:48,840 --> 00:26:51,960
Speaker 1: way people are is just to and I don't know

479
00:26:51,960 --> 00:26:53,720
Speaker 1: what that is. In Mexico they do the same thing.

480
00:26:53,880 --> 00:26:57,240
Speaker 1: People of darker shades are discriminated against. They're considered inferior.

481
00:26:57,440 --> 00:27:01,880
Speaker 1: There has got to be something almost like biologically wired

482
00:27:02,000 --> 00:27:05,879
Speaker 1: in people to react to color and to shades of color.

483
00:27:06,359 --> 00:27:11,640
Speaker 1: Because it's all over the world. It's in every culture. Yeah,

484
00:27:11,720 --> 00:27:14,080
Speaker 1: I mean they did a test once and I don't know,

485
00:27:14,520 --> 00:27:16,160
Speaker 1: like a study, and I don't know if this turned

486
00:27:16,160 --> 00:27:18,159
Speaker 1: out to be legitimate or not. But they had like

487
00:27:18,280 --> 00:27:22,080
Speaker 1: little tiny babies crawl towards pictures and they seem to

488
00:27:22,119 --> 00:27:25,679
Speaker 1: be more enamored of blonde hair over anything else. And

489
00:27:26,040 --> 00:27:28,720
Speaker 1: so they started wondering if there's something innate in people

490
00:27:28,760 --> 00:27:33,159
Speaker 1: that eventually leads to dividing each other by shades of color.

491
00:27:33,560 --> 00:27:36,600
Speaker 1: Because outside of that, none of this really makes any sense.

492
00:27:38,000 --> 00:27:40,200
Speaker 1: I can never tried to figure it out. I guess

493
00:27:40,320 --> 00:27:43,760
Speaker 1: it must be something that the like human nature has

494
00:27:43,880 --> 00:27:47,320
Speaker 1: eternally fought against itself, you know, for for thousands and

495
00:27:47,359 --> 00:27:50,720
Speaker 1: thousands of years. But all right, more coming up, John

496
00:27:50,720 --> 00:27:54,240
Speaker 1: and Ken caf I Am six forty live everywhere on

497
00:27:54,280 --> 00:27:57,440
Speaker 1: the iHeartRadio app well, of course, the breaking news. One down,

498
00:27:57,480 --> 00:28:00,440
Speaker 1: three to go. Nori Martinez has resigned from the Los

499
00:28:00,480 --> 00:28:05,760
Speaker 1: Angeles City Council again sort of misinformed people. She resigned

500
00:28:05,800 --> 00:28:08,480
Speaker 1: the other day from her position as president, but now

501
00:28:08,480 --> 00:28:10,840
Speaker 1: she's resigned from the whole council. That news broke this

502
00:28:10,880 --> 00:28:13,560
Speaker 1: hour Daniel Gusts and the Gusts Report will be our

503
00:28:13,600 --> 00:28:15,879
Speaker 1: guests after three o'clock to talk about that and the

504
00:28:15,960 --> 00:28:19,560
Speaker 1: continued chaos in the La City Council chambers as the

505
00:28:19,560 --> 00:28:23,080
Speaker 1: protesters show up saying they will not go away. I

506
00:28:23,080 --> 00:28:27,240
Speaker 1: would assume this is still true until all three have resigned.

507
00:28:27,320 --> 00:28:30,680
Speaker 1: We have not heard as of this moment from de Leone,

508
00:28:31,080 --> 00:28:32,800
Speaker 1: and as John and I said, de Leone's the one

509
00:28:32,840 --> 00:28:35,720
Speaker 1: we're watching because he believes he still has a bright,

510
00:28:36,160 --> 00:28:40,800
Speaker 1: long future in politics. She was definitely the worst of

511
00:28:40,800 --> 00:28:42,600
Speaker 1: the three, you got to say, at least from what

512
00:28:42,640 --> 00:28:46,280
Speaker 1: we heard from these recordings. Yeah, I mean side they

513
00:28:46,280 --> 00:28:48,479
Speaker 1: were more like the little nodding heads and laughing and

514
00:28:48,760 --> 00:28:51,520
Speaker 1: maybe a comment or two. Yeah, well, Deeleon through in

515
00:28:51,520 --> 00:28:54,960
Speaker 1: the Louis Vuton bag, he did that Boden Bond's child

516
00:28:55,080 --> 00:28:59,400
Speaker 1: is like a fashion accessory. But she went for the chugito.

517
00:29:00,240 --> 00:29:03,640
Speaker 1: She went with the slur and also the beatdown. I

518
00:29:03,680 --> 00:29:06,280
Speaker 1: want to take him around the car all the beat down,

519
00:29:06,760 --> 00:29:10,960
Speaker 1: beat down right right, And I think she also throughout

520
00:29:11,000 --> 00:29:13,520
Speaker 1: those comments like he's with the blacks and he's b

521
00:29:13,680 --> 00:29:17,200
Speaker 1: word and he's the yeah, all right, so we'll get

522
00:29:17,240 --> 00:29:19,440
Speaker 1: a we'll get more on that. For those of you

523
00:29:19,480 --> 00:29:22,880
Speaker 1: who wondered because a couple of geeks did email the show,

524
00:29:23,440 --> 00:29:26,120
Speaker 1: the Brown Act doesn't apply because they were not a quorum.

525
00:29:26,760 --> 00:29:30,160
Speaker 1: The Brown Act covers even private meetings of public officials,

526
00:29:30,200 --> 00:29:32,000
Speaker 1: but you have to have a quorum, you have to

527
00:29:32,040 --> 00:29:35,720
Speaker 1: have enough to make a you know whatever, the majority

528
00:29:35,800 --> 00:29:37,800
Speaker 1: is considered, and it was just the three of them,

529
00:29:37,880 --> 00:29:42,200
Speaker 1: so the conversation wasn't covered by the laws of the

530
00:29:42,240 --> 00:29:45,520
Speaker 1: Brown Act. By the county Health Department sent out quite

531
00:29:45,560 --> 00:29:47,640
Speaker 1: an email this afternoon. Usually, you know, these come to

532
00:29:47,640 --> 00:29:49,840
Speaker 1: the John and Ken Show, and they're usually just about

533
00:29:49,840 --> 00:29:53,800
Speaker 1: the latest COVID numbers, public health details, response plan to

534
00:29:53,880 --> 00:29:57,560
Speaker 1: recent ebola outbreak in Uganda. Whenever I see the word

535
00:29:57,560 --> 00:30:00,959
Speaker 1: of bola, I just kind of shiver. Don't want that virus.

536
00:30:01,600 --> 00:30:03,960
Speaker 1: I'll take COVID a million times over over a bowla.

537
00:30:05,440 --> 00:30:08,960
Speaker 1: I guess there's been another outbreak in Uganda. Because you

538
00:30:09,080 --> 00:30:13,240
Speaker 1: bleed out through all of your orifices. Blood. He's gushing

539
00:30:13,240 --> 00:30:17,680
Speaker 1: out of all the openings, even your eyeballs. What comes

540
00:30:17,680 --> 00:30:21,920
Speaker 1: out of your eyeballs? Blood? Oh, blood, yes, any opening

541
00:30:21,960 --> 00:30:24,480
Speaker 1: to the to the outside, and it doesn't require a cut,

542
00:30:24,520 --> 00:30:26,920
Speaker 1: it just pours out of you. Yeah, because you're hemorrhaging.

543
00:30:27,000 --> 00:30:30,480
Speaker 1: From the inside. Oh you know, so the blood starts

544
00:30:30,520 --> 00:30:34,200
Speaker 1: spurting out of any Oh please, we're getting near Halloween.

545
00:30:34,320 --> 00:30:39,920
Speaker 1: Be more graphic. The Ebola movie, directed by John Cobell

546
00:30:40,200 --> 00:30:43,920
Speaker 1: David doing a Bowl of horror movie. I don't I

547
00:30:43,960 --> 00:30:46,480
Speaker 1: think that's too sensitive to turn it into a horror movie.

548
00:30:46,640 --> 00:30:51,440
Speaker 1: Don't you think you're asking the wrong guy here? Yeah? Really,

549
00:30:53,040 --> 00:30:56,200
Speaker 1: he lives for chaos and agony. You should know better

550
00:30:56,480 --> 00:30:59,080
Speaker 1: than ask start a question with don't you think it's

551
00:30:59,080 --> 00:31:01,920
Speaker 1: two cents? And what do you think my answer is

552
00:31:01,920 --> 00:31:05,680
Speaker 1: gonna be? Really nothings? Have you learned nothing at all?

553
00:31:07,040 --> 00:31:09,800
Speaker 1: The Uganda Ministry of Health confirmed an outbreak of a

554
00:31:09,880 --> 00:31:13,920
Speaker 1: bowl of virus disease in a district in western Uganda.

555
00:31:14,040 --> 00:31:16,560
Speaker 1: Out of an abundance of caution, the federal government announced

556
00:31:16,560 --> 00:31:19,080
Speaker 1: that it will reroute all air travelers who have been

557
00:31:19,120 --> 00:31:22,960
Speaker 1: to Uganda during the past twenty one days, the incubation

558
00:31:23,000 --> 00:31:26,960
Speaker 1: period for the virus, through five airports. So basically, if

559
00:31:27,000 --> 00:31:28,800
Speaker 1: you've been to Uganda, even though you're not there now,

560
00:31:28,880 --> 00:31:30,680
Speaker 1: Let's say you were there a week or two ago

561
00:31:31,120 --> 00:31:33,000
Speaker 1: and you're somewhere in Europe and you're trying to come home,

562
00:31:33,320 --> 00:31:36,320
Speaker 1: they're gonna land you either at JFK Newark, Dulls O'Hare

563
00:31:36,480 --> 00:31:39,760
Speaker 1: or Hartsfield Airport, and then they're gonna isolate you. You're

564
00:31:39,760 --> 00:31:45,040
Speaker 1: going into quarantine, temperature and symptom check conducted by the CDC. Yes,

565
00:31:46,000 --> 00:31:47,600
Speaker 1: they want you to know though, the risk of a

566
00:31:47,640 --> 00:31:50,640
Speaker 1: bowl of virus disease in La County is low, as

567
00:31:50,720 --> 00:31:53,360
Speaker 1: no travelers coming from Uganda within the past twenty one

568
00:31:53,440 --> 00:31:56,040
Speaker 1: days will be coming directly through LAXC. I didn't mention

569
00:31:56,080 --> 00:31:59,800
Speaker 1: that airport on that list, and any such travelers are

570
00:31:59,800 --> 00:32:02,160
Speaker 1: first be screened and cleared to continue to travel at

571
00:32:02,160 --> 00:32:04,719
Speaker 1: the five US airports. There's quite a few travelers are

572
00:32:04,760 --> 00:32:06,720
Speaker 1: Uganda because that is a great place to go on

573
00:32:06,760 --> 00:32:10,120
Speaker 1: a safari. Oh, was that what people would go for?

574
00:32:10,640 --> 00:32:13,360
Speaker 1: Is that the tourism? Yeah, I don't know. On the

575
00:32:13,400 --> 00:32:16,959
Speaker 1: only African country I've been to his Morocco. Not been

576
00:32:17,040 --> 00:32:18,800
Speaker 1: to any of the you went on a safari than

577
00:32:19,440 --> 00:32:24,320
Speaker 1: Kenya and Tanzania. Uganda is nearby, and I forget, different

578
00:32:24,320 --> 00:32:29,600
Speaker 1: countries have different animals that you can see. Wow, Uganda's

579
00:32:29,600 --> 00:32:36,720
Speaker 1: idiomine remember him? Yes? He was a cannibal? Was he was?

580
00:32:37,560 --> 00:32:40,720
Speaker 1: He wasn't cannibal? Didn't we approve of that or was

581
00:32:40,760 --> 00:32:43,760
Speaker 1: that just something he bragged about. Um, I don't remember.

582
00:32:43,800 --> 00:32:46,600
Speaker 1: I just remember as a kid. Uh, comedians used to

583
00:32:46,600 --> 00:32:49,520
Speaker 1: tell a lot of idi amine jokes. Yes, I know,

584
00:32:49,920 --> 00:32:52,560
Speaker 1: connected to cabitalism, and I don't. I don't remember all

585
00:32:52,600 --> 00:32:56,480
Speaker 1: the details. One of the good old dictator evil people.

586
00:32:56,760 --> 00:32:59,800
Speaker 1: It wasn't a good guy. Yeah, I can't. I can't

587
00:33:00,240 --> 00:33:03,160
Speaker 1: for what he had for dinner, buddy. Yeah. And the

588
00:33:03,240 --> 00:33:06,640
Speaker 1: problem with a bola is that, well, when someone gets it,

589
00:33:06,760 --> 00:33:09,080
Speaker 1: you know, people try to treat them and help them. Man,

590
00:33:09,160 --> 00:33:11,880
Speaker 1: that's how it spreads any kind of bodily fluid. So

591
00:33:12,000 --> 00:33:14,880
Speaker 1: I have a blood vomit, you're in feces and sweats

592
00:33:17,120 --> 00:33:19,960
Speaker 1: go on zoom. So it's like you want to be

593
00:33:20,000 --> 00:33:22,600
Speaker 1: careful right now getting on those metro trains like that

594
00:33:22,640 --> 00:33:26,200
Speaker 1: Blue Love where we heard the spokeshole say last week,

595
00:33:26,240 --> 00:33:28,040
Speaker 1: we have a lot of bodily fluid cleaning to do

596
00:33:28,120 --> 00:33:31,400
Speaker 1: when that train gets into any wrong beach station. If

597
00:33:31,440 --> 00:33:34,960
Speaker 1: there's any chance of cast catching a bola in Los Angeles,

598
00:33:35,000 --> 00:33:38,560
Speaker 1: it'll be on a metro train. That's that's the virus

599
00:33:38,600 --> 00:33:42,720
Speaker 1: gets into your body through broken skin or mucous membranes. Yeah,

600
00:33:42,880 --> 00:33:45,680
Speaker 1: described as spongey like skin you find in your nose, eyes,

601
00:33:45,760 --> 00:33:48,560
Speaker 1: or mouth. There's a lot of spongy materials flying around

602
00:33:48,600 --> 00:33:51,680
Speaker 1: on a metro train, so they stay out of it

603
00:33:51,680 --> 00:33:55,680
Speaker 1: at Okay, So the county just wants you to know

604
00:33:55,800 --> 00:33:58,720
Speaker 1: that it's not considered a serious threat. All Right, We'll

605
00:33:58,720 --> 00:34:01,480
Speaker 1: be back on the La City Council. The breaking news

606
00:34:01,600 --> 00:34:05,040
Speaker 1: is that Neri Martinez has resigned her complete council seat.

607
00:34:05,640 --> 00:34:08,600
Speaker 1: That just happened in the last hour. Daniel Guss from

608
00:34:08,600 --> 00:34:10,480
