1 00:00:00,720 --> 00:00:00,920 Speaker 1: Can't. 2 00:00:01,080 --> 00:00:02,160 Speaker 2: I am six forty. 3 00:00:02,200 --> 00:00:05,640 Speaker 3: You're listening to the John Cobel podcast on the iHeartRadio app. 4 00:00:05,800 --> 00:00:08,880 Speaker 3: We're going to talk with Michael Mchee again, USC professor, 5 00:00:09,160 --> 00:00:11,280 Speaker 3: who has been providing us about a year's worth of 6 00:00:11,360 --> 00:00:14,160 Speaker 3: warnings on how bad gas prices are going to get. 7 00:00:14,320 --> 00:00:15,040 Speaker 2: And he was right. 8 00:00:15,160 --> 00:00:18,880 Speaker 3: I remember, probably the middle last year, he said, six 9 00:00:18,960 --> 00:00:21,640 Speaker 3: dollars a gas, six dollars a gallon gas is coming 10 00:00:22,280 --> 00:00:25,120 Speaker 3: and once you know it, two days ago in my town, 11 00:00:25,520 --> 00:00:27,800 Speaker 3: I paid five dollars ninety nine and nine tenths of 12 00:00:27,840 --> 00:00:30,280 Speaker 3: a cent for gas. So he was he was right 13 00:00:30,280 --> 00:00:31,680 Speaker 3: on the money. Well he was off by a tenth 14 00:00:31,680 --> 00:00:35,480 Speaker 3: of a cent. But we're going to talk now about 15 00:00:35,760 --> 00:00:41,280 Speaker 3: Chevron stepping forward. Well let me start at the beginning here. 16 00:00:42,080 --> 00:00:44,159 Speaker 3: Newsom has shut down a lot of oil production in 17 00:00:44,159 --> 00:00:48,519 Speaker 3: the state. Donald Trump signed an executive order invoking the 18 00:00:48,560 --> 00:00:52,280 Speaker 3: Defense Production Act that allows the federal government to accelerate 19 00:00:52,320 --> 00:00:56,600 Speaker 3: production of critical materials such as oil and gas. So 20 00:00:57,080 --> 00:01:02,040 Speaker 3: a company called Sable Offshore RESTARTAR died their oil operations 21 00:01:02,040 --> 00:01:04,040 Speaker 3: off the coast of Santa Barbara. They also had a 22 00:01:04,040 --> 00:01:06,720 Speaker 3: lot of oil and storage and now there's a customer 23 00:01:06,760 --> 00:01:11,240 Speaker 3: for it. Chevron is purchasing oil from Sable and they're 24 00:01:11,280 --> 00:01:14,240 Speaker 3: going to be refining it at their El Segundo plants. 25 00:01:14,280 --> 00:01:16,759 Speaker 3: Let's get Michael Mache on the line to see what 26 00:01:16,800 --> 00:01:17,280 Speaker 3: this means. 27 00:01:17,319 --> 00:01:19,880 Speaker 2: Michael, how are you terrific today? 28 00:01:20,000 --> 00:01:20,600 Speaker 1: John? How are you? 29 00:01:20,760 --> 00:01:22,720 Speaker 3: And thank you for being right on your prediction of 30 00:01:22,760 --> 00:01:25,080 Speaker 3: six dollars gas. I thought of you as I was pumping. 31 00:01:26,040 --> 00:01:28,759 Speaker 1: Well, I kind of wish I was wrong, but unfortunately 32 00:01:28,760 --> 00:01:31,680 Speaker 1: I was right. And I live in Pasadena and where 33 00:01:31,680 --> 00:01:34,800 Speaker 1: I buy gas it was six seventy nine for premium. 34 00:01:34,520 --> 00:01:36,280 Speaker 2: Today six seventy nine. 35 00:01:37,319 --> 00:01:39,080 Speaker 1: Yikes. 36 00:01:39,120 --> 00:01:42,480 Speaker 3: Well, I know, in the grand scheme of oil production, 37 00:01:42,720 --> 00:01:46,560 Speaker 3: twenty thousand barrels purchased by Chevron probably not enough to 38 00:01:46,640 --> 00:01:51,320 Speaker 3: change the you know, the price of gas here yet, right. 39 00:01:53,080 --> 00:01:57,120 Speaker 1: No, but what it does does change a degree of 40 00:01:57,600 --> 00:02:00,840 Speaker 1: complexity for California because keep it in mind, John, that 41 00:02:00,960 --> 00:02:04,040 Speaker 1: California is the most heavily dependent of all fifty states 42 00:02:04,120 --> 00:02:08,639 Speaker 1: on foreign sourced gasoline and foreign soced oil, and you 43 00:02:08,760 --> 00:02:13,240 Speaker 1: u as oil to make gasoline. Right, So, by Sable 44 00:02:13,360 --> 00:02:17,600 Speaker 1: coming online and by the way, we've designed that plan. 45 00:02:17,880 --> 00:02:21,960 Speaker 1: My co authors James Rector and Joseph Sylvia and I 46 00:02:22,040 --> 00:02:25,959 Speaker 1: designed that blueprint back in December, saying, well, if SABLE 47 00:02:26,000 --> 00:02:29,040 Speaker 1: comes online, the most logical place for that oil to 48 00:02:29,120 --> 00:02:31,760 Speaker 1: go would be south, which would be to the Los 49 00:02:31,800 --> 00:02:35,800 Speaker 1: Angeles refineries, in particular Chevron, if they would take it. 50 00:02:36,280 --> 00:02:40,400 Speaker 1: And so what that does I assuming that they were 51 00:02:40,440 --> 00:02:42,680 Speaker 1: able to ramp up their production to the levels that 52 00:02:42,720 --> 00:02:46,480 Speaker 1: we think they will, then then that that has an 53 00:02:46,520 --> 00:02:50,280 Speaker 1: impact on California. It doesn't have an impact nationally because 54 00:02:50,320 --> 00:02:53,320 Speaker 1: California is an island out here. We don't we don't 55 00:02:53,400 --> 00:02:57,639 Speaker 1: get gasoline or oil from any other state via a pipeline. 56 00:02:58,240 --> 00:03:00,919 Speaker 1: We have to bring it all in on tanker. So 57 00:03:01,160 --> 00:03:04,360 Speaker 1: if Sable comes online, which they are, and they're pumping 58 00:03:04,520 --> 00:03:07,720 Speaker 1: and they're in they're moving this oil to Chevron, then 59 00:03:07,800 --> 00:03:11,560 Speaker 1: that has a beneficial impact on California because we reduce 60 00:03:12,600 --> 00:03:16,000 Speaker 1: to a certain extent our dependency on foreign oil producers. 61 00:03:16,000 --> 00:03:18,560 Speaker 1: And I think California is getting a big dose of 62 00:03:18,600 --> 00:03:21,440 Speaker 1: the implications of Governor Knew some strategy of relying on 63 00:03:21,480 --> 00:03:26,240 Speaker 1: foreign importers. Okay, nations like a rap and Saudi Arabia, 64 00:03:26,360 --> 00:03:30,359 Speaker 1: Uee and Brazil and places like that to get oil 65 00:03:30,600 --> 00:03:36,200 Speaker 1: and gasoline. We get from India and South Korea Singapore, China, 66 00:03:36,320 --> 00:03:39,040 Speaker 1: even for jet fuel. So I think we're getting a 67 00:03:39,080 --> 00:03:43,880 Speaker 1: healthy dose of reality here of the state's strategy of 68 00:03:43,960 --> 00:03:48,240 Speaker 1: relying on the uh, the good, the good humor, and 69 00:03:48,280 --> 00:03:49,880 Speaker 1: the good graces of foreign governments. 70 00:03:50,400 --> 00:03:53,840 Speaker 3: In California, Newsom and Rob Bonta, the attorney general, they 71 00:03:53,840 --> 00:03:57,800 Speaker 3: filed a lawsuit against Trump's action. Does that have any 72 00:03:57,840 --> 00:04:01,280 Speaker 3: hope of of prevailing in court? 73 00:04:02,360 --> 00:04:06,840 Speaker 1: Well, that's going to be a phenomenally interesting case because 74 00:04:07,360 --> 00:04:10,160 Speaker 1: it's one and again I'm not a lawyer, but it 75 00:04:10,280 --> 00:04:14,560 Speaker 1: seems to me one that pitts states rights against against 76 00:04:14,600 --> 00:04:18,159 Speaker 1: the supremacy clause of the Constitution, and in particular what's 77 00:04:18,160 --> 00:04:22,720 Speaker 1: called the Defense Production Act, which was passed in nineteen fifty. Now, 78 00:04:22,760 --> 00:04:26,479 Speaker 1: that Act is designed to allow the president, or enable 79 00:04:26,520 --> 00:04:30,160 Speaker 1: the President to invoke powers in times of war, a 80 00:04:30,279 --> 00:04:37,040 Speaker 1: national emergency, economic consequences, you know, things like that, natural disasters. 81 00:04:37,680 --> 00:04:42,720 Speaker 1: And so the President, recognizing that California is by itself 82 00:04:42,800 --> 00:04:49,120 Speaker 1: and has no incoming pipelines and is essential to national defense, 83 00:04:50,640 --> 00:04:54,440 Speaker 1: invote the Defense Production Act. And I would suggest that 84 00:04:54,480 --> 00:04:58,040 Speaker 1: there'll be several other invocations of that coming along the 85 00:04:58,080 --> 00:05:01,799 Speaker 1: line through executive orders from the Resident in the near future. 86 00:05:01,880 --> 00:05:05,760 Speaker 3: Now, California's oil production Corney, the California Post was over 87 00:05:05,800 --> 00:05:10,279 Speaker 3: a million barrels per day forty years ago. Now, yeah, 88 00:05:10,320 --> 00:05:13,080 Speaker 3: it was down last year to two hundred and forty 89 00:05:13,120 --> 00:05:19,200 Speaker 3: six thousand barrels. That's over three quarters percentage drop, I mean, 90 00:05:19,279 --> 00:05:23,599 Speaker 3: seventy seven percent drop. So I guess, you know, Corney, 91 00:05:23,640 --> 00:05:25,640 Speaker 3: to what I'm seeing, production could get as high as 92 00:05:25,720 --> 00:05:31,039 Speaker 3: fifty five thousand barrels a day from Sable and that 93 00:05:31,040 --> 00:05:33,480 Speaker 3: that's a significant amount if we're only producing about two 94 00:05:33,560 --> 00:05:36,360 Speaker 3: hundred and fifty thousand. I mean, we're talking about twenty 95 00:05:36,400 --> 00:05:39,880 Speaker 3: percent we could get now from Santa Barbara, and that 96 00:05:39,880 --> 00:05:42,560 Speaker 3: that has a significant effect on the supply here. 97 00:05:43,160 --> 00:05:45,359 Speaker 1: Yeah, you sure could. You can get anywhere from a 98 00:05:45,400 --> 00:05:48,400 Speaker 1: minimum of fifteen percent to twenty twenty one percent from 99 00:05:48,400 --> 00:05:52,039 Speaker 1: Santa Barbara alone. And then you know, let's hope that 100 00:05:52,160 --> 00:05:55,760 Speaker 1: over the course of time oil production has increased in 101 00:05:56,080 --> 00:06:01,880 Speaker 1: Kerrent County and also honestly at Los Angeles County, Ventura County, 102 00:06:02,000 --> 00:06:06,080 Speaker 1: Monterey County has abundant oil reserves, so we could also 103 00:06:07,400 --> 00:06:12,040 Speaker 1: hold for some increased production in those areas as well. Yeah, 104 00:06:12,160 --> 00:06:14,720 Speaker 1: it's just very very interesting, you know, when you take 105 00:06:14,720 --> 00:06:18,839 Speaker 1: a look at at Governor Nuisom's term. You brought it 106 00:06:18,920 --> 00:06:23,920 Speaker 1: up earlier, John, Under Governor Newsom, drilling permits in California 107 00:06:24,080 --> 00:06:28,599 Speaker 1: declined ninety three percent from nineteen from twenty nineteen to 108 00:06:28,600 --> 00:06:31,760 Speaker 1: twenty twenty five to twenty twenty five, So ninety three 109 00:06:31,760 --> 00:06:35,479 Speaker 1: percent decline in drilling permits. And also we've seen this 110 00:06:35,560 --> 00:06:41,080 Speaker 1: precipitous decline in oil production. And now we've got a 111 00:06:41,160 --> 00:06:44,640 Speaker 1: twenty percent loss of in state refinery that occurred under 112 00:06:44,680 --> 00:06:47,960 Speaker 1: Governor Newsom's watch. So you know, we're in a very 113 00:06:47,960 --> 00:06:52,600 Speaker 1: precarious situation in California. Our day's supply is dropping, and 114 00:06:52,640 --> 00:06:56,200 Speaker 1: when that day supply hits around twelve days, eleven and 115 00:06:56,279 --> 00:06:59,200 Speaker 1: a half days to twelve and a half days, price 116 00:06:59,240 --> 00:07:01,680 Speaker 1: of gas goes up by at least a dollar a gallon. 117 00:07:02,040 --> 00:07:03,520 Speaker 1: We're precariously close to that. 118 00:07:04,080 --> 00:07:04,320 Speaker 3: Wow. 119 00:07:05,279 --> 00:07:05,479 Speaker 2: Wow. 120 00:07:05,560 --> 00:07:08,719 Speaker 3: And we have almost two billion barrels of proven reserves 121 00:07:08,800 --> 00:07:10,200 Speaker 3: underground here in California. 122 00:07:11,200 --> 00:07:15,760 Speaker 1: Oh, that's that's on the low end, John. When you 123 00:07:15,880 --> 00:07:19,239 Speaker 1: talk to geophysicists, I guess when you talk to geophysicists 124 00:07:19,280 --> 00:07:22,760 Speaker 1: like I do, and those those you know, the people 125 00:07:22,800 --> 00:07:26,680 Speaker 1: that really understand what's happening underground, they're going to tell 126 00:07:26,680 --> 00:07:29,840 Speaker 1: you there's so much abundance of oil in California that 127 00:07:29,920 --> 00:07:33,760 Speaker 1: it's it's, it's it would make Texas look small. 128 00:07:34,320 --> 00:07:36,880 Speaker 2: Well, we got to have a change. We really need 129 00:07:36,880 --> 00:07:37,320 Speaker 2: a change. 130 00:07:37,320 --> 00:07:40,000 Speaker 3: Michael Michee, thank you for coming on and explaining this, 131 00:07:40,320 --> 00:07:41,280 Speaker 3: explaining this again. 132 00:07:42,120 --> 00:07:43,320 Speaker 1: Oh thanks John, anytime? 133 00:07:43,440 --> 00:07:47,000 Speaker 3: All right, Michael mchee paying six seventy nine a gallon 134 00:07:47,120 --> 00:07:48,520 Speaker 3: in Pasadena. 135 00:07:48,080 --> 00:07:50,760 Speaker 2: Eric's paying six o nine. I got the cheap tank 136 00:07:51,080 --> 00:07:51,600 Speaker 2: five ninety. 137 00:07:51,960 --> 00:07:53,800 Speaker 3: I couldn't fill up the tank though, you know, because 138 00:07:53,800 --> 00:07:55,640 Speaker 3: the pump stops at one hundred dollars and I didn't 139 00:07:55,640 --> 00:07:58,800 Speaker 3: want to restart the whole credit card situation. All right, 140 00:07:59,040 --> 00:07:59,760 Speaker 3: Thank you, Michael. 141 00:08:00,680 --> 00:08:05,040 Speaker 4: You're listening to John Cobels on demand from KFI AM 142 00:08:05,080 --> 00:08:05,640 Speaker 4: six forty. 143 00:08:05,840 --> 00:08:08,400 Speaker 2: Let's see our subscriber total on YouTube. 144 00:08:09,440 --> 00:08:11,360 Speaker 3: If you want to subscribe, go to YouTube dot com 145 00:08:11,400 --> 00:08:14,120 Speaker 3: slash at John Cobelt's show. Now, we're twenty nine away 146 00:08:14,160 --> 00:08:18,320 Speaker 3: from five thousand. How about that, twenty nine away from 147 00:08:18,720 --> 00:08:21,680 Speaker 3: five thousand. So every time I mention it, get we 148 00:08:21,720 --> 00:08:24,840 Speaker 3: get another boost. So we'll get to five thousand and 149 00:08:24,880 --> 00:08:28,000 Speaker 3: we'll just make a lot of noise here. All right, 150 00:08:28,080 --> 00:08:30,840 Speaker 3: this is going to get you really upset and if 151 00:08:30,840 --> 00:08:32,600 Speaker 3: you're trying to eat dinner, I don't know what to 152 00:08:32,640 --> 00:08:37,200 Speaker 3: tell you. This may really cause you some stomach distress. 153 00:08:37,240 --> 00:08:40,480 Speaker 3: The California Post and I can't tell you at a 154 00:08:40,480 --> 00:08:46,040 Speaker 3: tremendous job that this news organization is doing uncovering all 155 00:08:46,080 --> 00:08:51,360 Speaker 3: the truth, all the corruption, and all the waste from 156 00:08:51,400 --> 00:08:56,559 Speaker 3: Gavin Newsom and Karen Bass. Listen to this. I try 157 00:08:56,559 --> 00:08:59,640 Speaker 3: to make connections. I try to connect dots here and 158 00:08:59,720 --> 00:09:04,320 Speaker 3: take three stories that you might think is unrelated, but 159 00:09:04,480 --> 00:09:09,600 Speaker 3: actually it's all connected. And we talked earlier about how 160 00:09:10,000 --> 00:09:12,200 Speaker 3: they're going to be taxing you one hundred and twenty 161 00:09:12,200 --> 00:09:15,720 Speaker 3: five million dollars in Los Angeles because the thieves have 162 00:09:15,880 --> 00:09:19,280 Speaker 3: ripped out so much copper wiring. There's like sixty thousand 163 00:09:19,280 --> 00:09:24,200 Speaker 3: street lights that are out. And why because they never 164 00:09:24,240 --> 00:09:26,920 Speaker 3: spent money on maintenance for the street lights, and. 165 00:09:26,880 --> 00:09:27,400 Speaker 2: They'd ever that. 166 00:09:27,520 --> 00:09:30,040 Speaker 3: You know, they defunded the police department, and they don't 167 00:09:30,040 --> 00:09:37,320 Speaker 3: throw the street thieves in jail anyway, and they blow 168 00:09:37,920 --> 00:09:42,400 Speaker 3: billions of dollars on the homeless, and we get more homeless.

When 304 00:19:28,880 --> 00:19:33,399 Speaker 3: they were stopped in their tracks. One of the workers said, hey, 305 00:19:33,880 --> 00:19:38,760 Speaker 3: there's someone down there in the storm train, and seconds later, 306 00:19:39,359 --> 00:19:42,960 Speaker 3: another person, not the woman, a man in his late 307 00:19:43,000 --> 00:19:46,879 Speaker 3: twenties climbed out of the darkness, and he carried with 308 00:19:46,960 --> 00:19:52,720 Speaker 3: him a pink polka dot roller suitcase.

That's crazy because you 311 00:20:02,880 --> 00:20:05,119 Speaker 3: can't climb out of the sword grate along the curb. 312 00:20:05,800 --> 00:20:12,720 Speaker 2: He would have been stuck under there. Maybe they're more, well, yeah, 313 00:20:12,920 --> 00:20:14,200 Speaker 2: how do they know there isn't more? 314 00:20:14,359 --> 00:20:15,040 Speaker 5: I mean they need to. 315 00:20:15,960 --> 00:20:17,800 Speaker 2: I guess nobody wants to go down there. 316 00:20:17,760 --> 00:20:21,720 Speaker 3: See no no, but that there's could easily could be others. 317 00:20:21,760 --> 00:20:24,600 Speaker 3: Sonked out on drugs and they're just gonna die underground. 318 00:20:25,440 --> 00:20:29,639 Speaker 3: That's that's Karen Bass's compassion for you.

The 319 00:20:29,760 --> 00:20:33,360 Speaker 3: La Times and who wrote this Feedor Zarkin and Alan Schabin. 320 00:20:34,680 --> 00:20:37,919 Speaker 3: It was a startling scene, even for residents such as 321 00:20:37,960 --> 00:20:40,520 Speaker 3: Denise Evans, who says she has seen it all over 322 00:20:40,560 --> 00:20:44,160 Speaker 3: the years.

Why did it take a year, and 327 00:21:06,440 --> 00:21:08,639 Speaker 3: there's a strip of there's a strip of dirt that 328 00:21:08,760 --> 00:21:12,160 Speaker 3: separates the neighborhood from the one ten freeway, and that's 329 00:21:12,200 --> 00:21:16,800 Speaker 3: where the vagrants congregate until she and others complained, and 330 00:21:16,840 --> 00:21:19,280 Speaker 3: then the city put up fencing and boulders to keep 331 00:21:19,320 --> 00:21:21,720 Speaker 3: them off the dirt strip. But the people living there 332 00:21:21,760 --> 00:21:24,200 Speaker 3: didn't go away. They just moved their tents elsewhere in 333 00:21:24,200 --> 00:21:29,160 Speaker 3: the neighborhood or they started going underground. Karen Bass's office 334 00:21:29,160 --> 00:21:39,159 Speaker 3: said it had mobilized a response, people calling for years. Ah, 335 00:21:39,200 --> 00:21:43,240 Speaker 3: and she's going. This is emblematic of the tough challenges 336 00:21:43,280 --> 00:21:46,440 Speaker 3: that Mayor Bass is taking on that we're ignored for decades, 337 00:21:46,600 --> 00:21:49,760 Speaker 3: said the mayor's office. Oh now it's not her fault anymore. 338 00:21:49,920 --> 00:21:52,040 Speaker 3: She's been sitting there for three and a half years, 339 00:21:52,440 --> 00:21:56,880 Speaker 3: didn't do crap except blow billions of dollars and hire lawyers, 340 00:21:57,080 --> 00:21:59,680 Speaker 3: so she doesn't have to explain where the missing two 341 00:21:59,680 --> 00:22:00,800 Speaker 3: billion dollars went. 342 00:22:01,600 --> 00:22:04,919 Speaker 2: And now what is she doing? Who are you blaming here? 343 00:22:04,960 --> 00:22:05,320 Speaker 2: You blame me? 344 00:22:05,359 --> 00:22:10,560 Speaker 3: Garcetti? God, say it out loud? How come to nobody 345 00:22:10,560 --> 00:22:15,240 Speaker 3: ever talks about him? But she didn't do anything. She's 346 00:22:15,240 --> 00:22:22,520 Speaker 3: made it worse. It's unclear what precisely prompted the city 347 00:22:22,560 --> 00:22:29,080 Speaker 3: to respond, but one of the uh, some guy who 348 00:22:29,160 --> 00:22:33,760 Speaker 3: runs a nonprofit it's dedicated to cleaning up the city. 349 00:22:33,800 --> 00:22:37,240 Speaker 3: Juan Naola says he think the videos that he posted 350 00:22:37,280 --> 00:22:40,159 Speaker 3: on social media about people living in the storm drains 351 00:22:40,200 --> 00:22:42,720 Speaker 3: were the trigger. Yeah you think, yeah, it was. It's 352 00:22:42,800 --> 00:22:49,080 Speaker 3: Fox eleven. We're showing the video. Otherwise none of this 353 00:22:49,119 --> 00:22:53,280 Speaker 3: would have happened. You know, we're gonna Spencer Pratt on 354 00:22:53,320 --> 00:22:56,040 Speaker 3: tomorrow at three o'clock and he's got to make the 355 00:22:56,119 --> 00:22:59,359 Speaker 3: run off here because bass is the disaster in Nthea 356 00:22:59,440 --> 00:23:05,160 Speaker 3: Ramin would be worse. We got more coming up. We've 357 00:23:05,200 --> 00:23:09,360 Speaker 3: got more coming up. We've got a congressman in Washington 358 00:23:09,560 --> 00:23:12,840 Speaker 3: said new some better lawyer up. We'll explain that coming up. 359 00:23:13,119 --> 00:23:17,439 Speaker 4: You're listening to John Cobelt on demand from KFI AM 360 00:23:17,480 --> 00:23:18,000 Speaker 4: six forty. 361 00:23:18,720 --> 00:23:20,120 Speaker 2: Gavin Newsom. 362 00:23:21,200 --> 00:23:26,600 Speaker 3: Was told publicly by Republican Congressman James Comer, who is 363 00:23:26,680 --> 00:23:29,960 Speaker 3: chairman of the House Oversight Committee, that he better lawyer up. 364 00:23:31,520 --> 00:23:35,960 Speaker 3: I'm gonna give you some background here. Comer is investigating 365 00:23:36,600 --> 00:23:43,040 Speaker 3: the hospice fraud, daycare center fraud, Medicare medicaid fraud, and separately, 366 00:23:43,080 --> 00:23:47,440 Speaker 3: Jonathan had Tommy, who's a Deputy DA in La County. 367 00:23:47,640 --> 00:23:52,280 Speaker 3: He ran for DA, and he has been posting about 368 00:23:52,320 --> 00:23:55,760 Speaker 3: Newsom and about Newsom going back and forth with people 369 00:23:55,760 --> 00:23:59,399 Speaker 3: in the media. For example, he's mirroring Nick Shirley as 370 00:23:59,400 --> 00:24:02,959 Speaker 3: a pedophile twice now. Every time a medium member points 371 00:24:02,960 --> 00:24:07,280 Speaker 3: out just how much disgusting fraud there is in the 372 00:24:07,280 --> 00:24:14,040 Speaker 3: medicare system, in the medical system. And Tommy said, anytime 373 00:24:14,119 --> 00:24:17,000 Speaker 3: someone posts on social media about the massive fraud, Newsom 374 00:24:17,000 --> 00:24:21,639 Speaker 3: immediately shout back, shouts back that we are arresting people 375 00:24:21,720 --> 00:24:25,360 Speaker 3: and punishing fraud, and that Tommy writes, just so we're 376 00:24:25,400 --> 00:24:28,120 Speaker 3: all clear, most of us here in California have known 377 00:24:28,160 --> 00:24:31,439 Speaker 3: about the fraud crisis for a long time. Anytime I 378 00:24:31,480 --> 00:24:35,119 Speaker 3: see Newsom say anything about public safety, really all you 379 00:24:35,200 --> 00:24:40,840 Speaker 3: have to say is Gascon. Newsom brought Gascon to San Francisco. 380 00:24:41,320 --> 00:24:45,360 Speaker 3: He appointed him San Francisco Police Chief. He and pointed 381 00:24:45,520 --> 00:24:50,439 Speaker 3: him san Francisco District Attorney. He supported and endorsed him 382 00:24:50,560 --> 00:24:54,840 Speaker 3: when he ran for San Francisco DA, and he supported 383 00:24:54,880 --> 00:24:58,440 Speaker 3: and endorsed him when he ran for La DA twice. 384 00:24:59,280 --> 00:25:03,399 Speaker 3: When Gascon took office in La almost all fraud type 385 00:25:03,520 --> 00:25:08,320 Speaker 3: charges were considered zero bail. Yes, the fraudsters were all 386 00:25:08,520 --> 00:25:13,679 Speaker 3: just released. This was a written policy. Any enhancements for 387 00:25:13,760 --> 00:25:18,160 Speaker 3: insurance fraud, check fraud, ID theft, credit card fraud, real 388 00:25:18,280 --> 00:25:24,439 Speaker 3: estate fraud, medical services fraud, etc. Were removed, completely gone, 389 00:25:24,840 --> 00:25:27,840 Speaker 3: even if we could prove them again a written policy. 390 00:25:28,400 --> 00:25:31,200 Speaker 3: So if there were elderly or vulnerable victims of very 391 00:25:31,280 --> 00:25:35,400 Speaker 3: high monetary loss or multiple victims, we were not allowed 392 00:25:35,440 --> 00:25:37,560 Speaker 3: to charge enhancements. 393 00:25:38,920 --> 00:25:41,440 Speaker 2: I never saw or heard Newsom. 394 00:25:41,200 --> 00:25:44,280 Speaker 3: Make one peep about victims of fraud or what Gascone 395 00:25:44,280 --> 00:25:52,440 Speaker 3: did to La. Now that Newsom is being unmasked, he's 396 00:25:52,440 --> 00:25:54,800 Speaker 3: getting his pants pulled down every five minutes on all 397 00:25:54,840 --> 00:25:57,960 Speaker 3: the fraud. I'm going to play in this clip. Congressman 398 00:25:58,080 --> 00:26:01,920 Speaker 3: James Comer, Republican. He's in charge of the House Oversight Committee. 399 00:26:02,119 --> 00:26:05,360 Speaker 3: He was on Sean Hannity's show on Fox News and 400 00:26:05,640 --> 00:26:08,000 Speaker 3: listen to Comer about Newsom. 401 00:26:08,359 --> 00:26:11,520 Speaker 5: You could multiply what we found in Minnesota probably by 402 00:26:11,640 --> 00:26:14,760 Speaker 5: ten in California. That's how bad it is. And what 403 00:26:14,800 --> 00:26:17,600 Speaker 5: we're hoping in this investigation is we have the same 404 00:26:17,640 --> 00:26:21,280 Speaker 5: success we had in Minnesota with whistleblowers coming forward, reaching 405 00:26:21,320 --> 00:26:24,400 Speaker 5: out to me or other Oversight Committee members to sit 406 00:26:24,480 --> 00:26:27,800 Speaker 5: down and do transcribe interviews so that we can finally 407 00:26:27,840 --> 00:26:30,560 Speaker 5: figure out who's responsible for this fraud. What we know 408 00:26:31,160 --> 00:26:34,600 Speaker 5: in California, just with respect to hospice, of all the 409 00:26:34,640 --> 00:26:37,600 Speaker 5: government entities, hospice is the one that I don't think 410 00:26:37,640 --> 00:26:40,000 Speaker 5: there would be anyone out there that wouldn't have full 411 00:26:40,040 --> 00:26:44,560 Speaker 5: support for hospice at our worst time of need. Hospice 412 00:26:44,600 --> 00:26:48,600 Speaker 5: alone three and a half billion dollars just in Los 413 00:26:48,640 --> 00:26:52,800 Speaker 5: Angeles County. And what that amounts to, shad is the 414 00:26:52,840 --> 00:26:56,720 Speaker 5: whole hospice budget for the United States. Last year, eighteen 415 00:26:56,840 --> 00:27:00,280 Speaker 5: percent of all the billing was in Los Angeles County. 416 00:27:00,480 --> 00:27:03,439 Speaker 5: And that's not eighteen percent of the population of America 417 00:27:03,520 --> 00:27:05,960 Speaker 5: in that one county, and it's a big county. Eighteen 418 00:27:06,000 --> 00:27:09,040 Speaker 5: percent of the entire billing for the United States. It 419 00:27:09,200 --> 00:27:13,560 Speaker 5: is rampant in California, and Gavin Newsom knew it and 420 00:27:13,600 --> 00:27:14,840 Speaker 5: hasn't done a thing about it. 421 00:27:15,080 --> 00:27:16,080 Speaker 2: Are you going to bring him in? 422 00:27:16,320 --> 00:27:18,840 Speaker 5: We would like to bring him in. We're trying to 423 00:27:18,880 --> 00:27:21,960 Speaker 5: start with some state employees. That's what we did in Minnesota. 424 00:27:22,040 --> 00:27:25,880 Speaker 5: We proved in Minnesota that Governor Tim Wallace and Attorney 425 00:27:25,920 --> 00:27:28,879 Speaker 5: General Keith Ellison knew about the fraud. We know that 426 00:27:29,000 --> 00:27:31,479 Speaker 5: as we speak. There have been dozens of people in 427 00:27:31,520 --> 00:27:35,440 Speaker 5: Minnesota already arrested by the Trump Department of Justice for fraud, 428 00:27:35,480 --> 00:27:38,359 Speaker 5: and they're putting a case together on hundreds more in 429 00:27:38,400 --> 00:27:41,440 Speaker 5: Minnesota as we speak. So we're seeing accountability there now. 430 00:27:41,440 --> 00:27:43,959 Speaker 5: We want to see that in California. So Gavin Newsom 431 00:27:44,240 --> 00:27:45,160 Speaker 5: better lawyer up. 432 00:27:45,720 --> 00:27:48,920 Speaker 2: Gavin Newso bettered lawyer up. That's what ought to happen. 433 00:27:49,840 --> 00:27:53,680 Speaker 3: He ought to have cuffs on him, handcuffs and sent 434 00:27:54,040 --> 00:27:57,280 Speaker 3: to prison for all this fraud. I'm sure he knew 435 00:27:57,280 --> 00:28:01,280 Speaker 3: about it. He allowed it. They did the same thing 436 00:28:01,480 --> 00:28:04,560 Speaker 3: in Minnesota. It's billions. 437 00:28:04,560 --> 00:28:04,800 Speaker 2: Ells. 438 00:28:04,920 --> 00:28:08,639 Speaker 3: How does La County La keunty is ten million people? 439 00:28:09,080 --> 00:28:12,920 Speaker 3: Ten million people out of three one hundred and forty million, 440 00:28:14,080 --> 00:28:17,080 Speaker 3: and we have eighteen percent of all the hospice spending. 441 00:28:20,280 --> 00:28:23,760 Speaker 3: I mean, we're like three percent of the nation's population 442 00:28:23,880 --> 00:28:27,720 Speaker 3: with eighteen percent of the hospice spending. Who are all 443 00:28:27,760 --> 00:28:31,040 Speaker 3: these because you go to hospice most of the time 444 00:28:31,080 --> 00:28:37,240 Speaker 3: you come out dead. Where are all these dead bodies? Yeah, 445 00:28:37,280 --> 00:28:41,360 Speaker 3: he's gonna run for president. All right, We're done.
