I just got 11 00:00:33,320 --> 00:00:38,479 Speaker 1: something in my email about ten minutes ago. It's just 12 00:00:38,200 --> 00:00:42,320 Speaker 1: it's just something about it just like sums up the 13 00:00:42,080 --> 00:00:46,680 Speaker 1: the idiocy of the world and how much nonsense goes 14 00:00:46,760 --> 00:00:53,840 Speaker 1: on with social media and attorneys. I actually got this, 15 00:00:53,920 --> 00:00:58,040 Speaker 1: and this turns out to be a real thing. It 16 00:00:58,080 --> 00:01:02,680 Speaker 1: was headline noticed not a proposed settlement of class action. 17 00:01:03,400 --> 00:01:07,600 Speaker 1: Apparently I'm listed as one of the one of the 18 00:01:07,640 --> 00:01:13,360 Speaker 1: aggrieved in this class action lawsuit. Now here's how I qualified. 19 00:01:14,640 --> 00:01:18,119 Speaker 1: If you're a person between April twenty second of twenty 20 00:01:18,280 --> 00:01:22,959 Speaker 1: ten and September twenty sixth of twenty eleven, if you 21 00:01:23,000 --> 00:01:26,080 Speaker 1: were a Facebook user in the United States who visited 22 00:01:26,120 --> 00:01:30,520 Speaker 1: a non Facebook website that displayed a Facebook like button, 23 00:01:31,000 --> 00:01:33,759 Speaker 1: you may be eligible for a payment from a class 24 00:01:33,800 --> 00:01:41,200 Speaker 1: action settlement. I got that too. Did you submit your No, 25 00:01:41,520 --> 00:01:44,520 Speaker 1: I haven't done anything yet. It's sitting in my inbox. 26 00:01:44,640 --> 00:01:49,440 Speaker 1: This is for real. Yeah, there's ninety million dollars sitting 27 00:01:49,480 --> 00:01:54,320 Speaker 1: on the table. Facebook made a settlement without admitting wrongdoing. 28 00:01:54,600 --> 00:01:57,360 Speaker 1: This sounds like a scam. I thought it might be, 29 00:01:58,080 --> 00:01:59,960 Speaker 1: but it's not. I checked. There's a number of news 30 00:02:00,080 --> 00:02:04,480 Speaker 1: sites that say this is real and you don't have 31 00:02:04,560 --> 00:02:06,360 Speaker 1: to do much to claim it. I guess they all 32 00:02:06,600 --> 00:02:08,160 Speaker 1: because I thought, well, now, how the hell am I 33 00:02:08,160 --> 00:02:11,520 Speaker 1: going to prove I went on a website twelve years 34 00:02:11,520 --> 00:02:14,600 Speaker 1: ago and that there was a Facebook like button on 35 00:02:14,639 --> 00:02:19,880 Speaker 1: the website. So what they did was is they had 36 00:02:19,919 --> 00:02:25,480 Speaker 1: tracking cookies, and when you went off Facebook to other websites, 37 00:02:25,520 --> 00:02:29,399 Speaker 1: they track that and then they put Facebook like buttons. 38 00:02:30,160 --> 00:02:33,680 Speaker 1: So I guess you'd click it and then that's credit 39 00:02:33,720 --> 00:02:38,480 Speaker 1: to Facebook. It's some metric maybe that they were selling. 40 00:02:39,680 --> 00:02:41,480 Speaker 1: I don't know. I don't know either, because when I 41 00:02:41,520 --> 00:02:43,880 Speaker 1: got that, I kind of thought what Eric was saying 42 00:02:43,919 --> 00:02:45,720 Speaker 1: that it was a scam. So I sort of left 43 00:02:45,760 --> 00:02:47,520 Speaker 1: it and I said, I'll just come back to this. 44 00:02:48,240 --> 00:02:51,280 Speaker 1: I thought so too. I forgot about it. I just 45 00:02:51,360 --> 00:02:55,080 Speaker 1: got this a few minutes ago. So the attorney, the 46 00:02:55,120 --> 00:02:58,120 Speaker 1: attorneys in this case are getting twenty nine percent of 47 00:02:58,160 --> 00:03:02,960 Speaker 1: the settlement. So right off the bat, they're getting thirty 48 00:03:03,040 --> 00:03:09,800 Speaker 1: million dollars because twelve years ago, Facebook tracked me on 49 00:03:09,800 --> 00:03:16,560 Speaker 1: another website and offered me a like button. Yeah, and 50 00:03:16,680 --> 00:03:20,240 Speaker 1: they know their audience. That's that's right. One are the odds. 51 00:03:20,240 --> 00:03:23,040 Speaker 1: I was going to click the like button and I'm thinking, 52 00:03:23,160 --> 00:03:25,440 Speaker 1: is this for real? I mean, this is nuts in 53 00:03:25,480 --> 00:03:29,240 Speaker 1: so many different ways. This is how the attorneys are 54 00:03:29,240 --> 00:03:33,200 Speaker 1: making money. This is what well we do. Facebook was 55 00:03:33,200 --> 00:03:36,240 Speaker 1: tracking us. I wasn't exactly shocked at that, right, but 56 00:03:36,320 --> 00:03:38,800 Speaker 1: I guess at some point they weren't allowed to do that. 57 00:03:40,000 --> 00:03:45,200 Speaker 1: And what's really funny is I went to the you know, 58 00:03:45,240 --> 00:03:52,720 Speaker 1: there's a website Facebook Internet Tracking Litigation and to submit acclaim. 59 00:03:52,920 --> 00:03:56,520 Speaker 1: There's a form and you have to put your notice 60 00:03:56,600 --> 00:03:59,040 Speaker 1: ID number and a confirmation code in because I was 61 00:03:59,160 --> 00:04:02,240 Speaker 1: very wary so far, I don't have to put any 62 00:04:02,440 --> 00:04:05,720 Speaker 1: private information. Then you click submit and here they want 63 00:04:05,760 --> 00:04:08,680 Speaker 1: your address and phone number, they already have your email, 64 00:04:09,160 --> 00:04:13,160 Speaker 1: then they just they have AFFID David questions did you 65 00:04:13,200 --> 00:04:17,400 Speaker 1: reside in the United States between those dates in twenty eleven? 66 00:04:17,440 --> 00:04:20,520 Speaker 1: You currently have a Facebook account? And what's your user name? 67 00:04:20,720 --> 00:04:23,520 Speaker 1: And then payment selection? I'm thinking, what do you mean 68 00:04:23,600 --> 00:04:26,960 Speaker 1: payment selection? I'm not paying for this. But it turns 69 00:04:26,960 --> 00:04:31,440 Speaker 1: out they'll pay you how much? Well, I've looked that 70 00:04:31,600 --> 00:04:34,240 Speaker 1: up and according to the news stories, there was a 71 00:04:34,320 --> 00:04:41,480 Speaker 1: case in Illinois where we're Facebook surrendered and everybody got 72 00:04:41,480 --> 00:04:45,960 Speaker 1: three hundred and ninety seven dollars. Now, I'd fill out 73 00:04:46,000 --> 00:04:48,479 Speaker 1: the form for three hundred and ninety seven dollars because 74 00:04:48,480 --> 00:04:50,360 Speaker 1: it only takes a minute, and it doesn't look like 75 00:04:50,400 --> 00:04:53,240 Speaker 1: they are going to get any information from me that 76 00:04:53,279 --> 00:04:58,800 Speaker 1: they don't already have where they couldn't easily get. But 77 00:04:59,320 --> 00:05:02,240 Speaker 1: isn't this crazy? Is this what the world? Does this? 78 00:05:02,520 --> 00:05:08,680 Speaker 1: All the guys in the offices do. The Court is 79 00:05:08,720 --> 00:05:11,520 Speaker 1: going to have a hearing in San Jose October twenty 80 00:05:11,520 --> 00:05:15,880 Speaker 1: seventh to consider whether the ninety million dollars settlement is fair, reasonable, 81 00:05:15,880 --> 00:05:19,360 Speaker 1: and adequate. Not clear how many class members they'll be 82 00:05:19,480 --> 00:05:22,040 Speaker 1: or how much each individual will receive, so there's no 83 00:05:22,120 --> 00:05:25,360 Speaker 1: way to know how much money you're gonna get now. 84 00:05:25,400 --> 00:05:27,960 Speaker 1: In twenty twenty one, Facebook agreed to a six hundred 85 00:05:28,000 --> 00:05:31,040 Speaker 1: and fifty million dollars settlement in a lawsuit that it 86 00:05:31,160 --> 00:05:36,360 Speaker 1: broke Illinois laws by collecting and storing users' physical characteristics 87 00:05:36,360 --> 00:05:40,800 Speaker 1: without their consent. They broke biometric laws. How could they 88 00:05:40,800 --> 00:05:44,680 Speaker 1: do that? What do they suck the DNA out of? You? Guess? So, 89 00:05:45,320 --> 00:05:50,040 Speaker 1: I mean somebody is somebody taking photos. It's a creepy world. 90 00:05:51,560 --> 00:05:54,360 Speaker 1: So in this case, one point six million Facebook users 91 00:05:54,440 --> 00:05:57,440 Speaker 1: in Illinois each received three hundred and ninety seven dollars. 92 00:06:00,839 --> 00:06:05,960 Speaker 1: So there's there's no risk here, I don't think. I mean, 93 00:06:06,000 --> 00:06:09,760 Speaker 1: they've probably already got my address and phone now anyway, 94 00:06:09,800 --> 00:06:13,400 Speaker 1: of course. Yeah, so, uh, and they'll put it. They'll 95 00:06:13,400 --> 00:06:18,440 Speaker 1: put it, they'll send it to your PayPal account where 96 00:06:18,520 --> 00:06:20,679 Speaker 1: you're or you can get it on Venmo, or they'll 97 00:06:20,680 --> 00:06:28,600 Speaker 1: send you a MasterCard prepaid, well, a prepaid Mastercard's I 98 00:06:28,320 --> 00:06:32,000 Speaker 1: can't can You might imagine how many well, I know 99 00:06:32,000 --> 00:06:34,320 Speaker 1: how many millions of dollars the law firm is gonna get. 100 00:06:34,320 --> 00:06:37,000 Speaker 1: They're gonna get probably twenty five million dollars. I think 101 00:06:37,040 --> 00:06:40,720 Speaker 1: we'll get ten bucks when all is done. But these 102 00:06:40,720 --> 00:06:44,960 Speaker 1: suits go on all the time for these weird violations 103 00:06:45,440 --> 00:06:48,480 Speaker 1: and class action lawsuits are filed, and the lawyers always 104 00:06:48,480 --> 00:06:51,480 Speaker 1: walk away with millions, tens of billions of dollars. And 105 00:06:51,520 --> 00:06:53,760 Speaker 1: then if you bothered to sign up or you didn't 106 00:06:53,760 --> 00:06:56,400 Speaker 1: opt out, you know, you get eight bucks or thirteen 107 00:06:56,440 --> 00:07:02,840 Speaker 1: bucks or I'm thinking, this is what I've been thinking about, Like, 108 00:07:02,880 --> 00:07:04,839 Speaker 1: we have a we have a large amount of collective 109 00:07:04,839 --> 00:07:08,840 Speaker 1: intelligence in the country, But what what does the intelligence 110 00:07:09,240 --> 00:07:11,920 Speaker 1: create these days? What do they produce for us? Right? 111 00:07:12,360 --> 00:07:14,840 Speaker 1: Because there's a lot of great things they could produce, 112 00:07:15,080 --> 00:07:21,720 Speaker 1: you know, cures for diseases for example, you know, ways 113 00:07:21,960 --> 00:07:26,760 Speaker 1: to u create new sources of energy or more efficient 114 00:07:26,800 --> 00:07:29,520 Speaker 1: sources of energy. I mean, there's there's a lot of 115 00:07:29,520 --> 00:07:33,360 Speaker 1: stuff that that could be done, and instead this is 116 00:07:33,360 --> 00:07:36,040 Speaker 1: what they're doing. You've got a company that's that's invented 117 00:07:36,120 --> 00:07:38,520 Speaker 1: social media, and we've seen what people do with that 118 00:07:38,520 --> 00:07:41,640 Speaker 1: thing all day. Then they get greedy and they start 119 00:07:41,640 --> 00:07:43,960 Speaker 1: tracking you with their stupid cookies, and then lawyers come 120 00:07:44,000 --> 00:07:46,080 Speaker 1: in and say, hey, give us tens of millions of dollars, 121 00:07:46,120 --> 00:07:48,200 Speaker 1: and all of you out there, you've been victimized. I mean, 122 00:07:48,240 --> 00:07:53,240 Speaker 1: I'm a victim here. I don't know what just what 123 00:07:53,320 --> 00:07:56,600 Speaker 1: a waste of intelligence and effort and time and energy. 124 00:07:57,000 --> 00:08:00,280 Speaker 1: Just what silly I'm gonna put in my h I'm 125 00:08:00,320 --> 00:08:02,160 Speaker 1: going to submit my claim. Yeah, I guess I'll do 126 00:08:02,200 --> 00:08:03,600 Speaker 1: it too, because I just want to see if if 127 00:08:03,600 --> 00:08:06,120 Speaker 1: I actually get money out of it. Yeah, it's just 128 00:08:08,520 --> 00:08:12,080 Speaker 1: that the T Mobile had to settle for three hundred 129 00:08:12,080 --> 00:08:15,240 Speaker 1: and fifty million dollars a data breach case, Apple fifteen 130 00:08:15,280 --> 00:08:21,680 Speaker 1: million dollars on iCloud storage. So this this stuff, these lawyers, 131 00:08:21,720 --> 00:08:25,200 Speaker 1: I guess, troll to see how these companies violate the 132 00:08:25,320 --> 00:08:28,920 Speaker 1: laws or agreements or whatever it is. Are more coming 133 00:08:29,040 --> 00:08:31,400 Speaker 1: up on the John and Ken show. Dever just mentioned 134 00:08:31,400 --> 00:08:35,760 Speaker 1: a few minutes ago we got these flex alerts as 135 00:08:35,800 --> 00:08:39,680 Speaker 1: the government announcements for the third straight day that they 136 00:08:39,720 --> 00:08:44,559 Speaker 1: have so botched our energy situation over the years that 137 00:08:44,600 --> 00:08:47,040 Speaker 1: we could run out of power again today. This is 138 00:08:47,040 --> 00:08:51,280 Speaker 1: the third day they're sending out warnings. And what's funny 139 00:08:51,520 --> 00:08:55,679 Speaker 1: is now the some of the news stations in town. 140 00:08:56,120 --> 00:08:59,160 Speaker 1: I quickly went through all the TV stations this morning 141 00:08:59,440 --> 00:09:04,360 Speaker 1: on their web sites, because you know what's been ignored 142 00:09:04,480 --> 00:09:09,360 Speaker 1: in this in this uh power shortage. You know, you know, 143 00:09:09,400 --> 00:09:13,080 Speaker 1: Mother Nature is to blame because we've made her angry. 144 00:09:13,200 --> 00:09:16,200 Speaker 1: I think that's what Newsome was trying to sell. It's 145 00:09:16,400 --> 00:09:20,120 Speaker 1: it's global warming, it's climate change, it's the drought, it's 146 00:09:20,160 --> 00:09:23,320 Speaker 1: all this. And the other angle was that you know, 147 00:09:23,360 --> 00:09:27,120 Speaker 1: we're we're using too much energy and we have to 148 00:09:27,160 --> 00:09:30,760 Speaker 1: cut back, we have to sacrifice for the good of all. 149 00:09:31,320 --> 00:09:35,120 Speaker 1: But at least they're starting to notice the insanity of 150 00:09:35,240 --> 00:09:39,080 Speaker 1: Newsome announcing a ban on gas powered car sales in 151 00:09:39,120 --> 00:09:42,400 Speaker 1: twenty thirty five, and then a few days later repeatedly 152 00:09:42,440 --> 00:09:47,200 Speaker 1: asking people not to charge their electric cars. Here's a 153 00:09:47,280 --> 00:09:52,840 Speaker 1: headline from a Channel two Flex alert extended a third day, 154 00:09:53,360 --> 00:09:57,559 Speaker 1: ev owners asked not to charge vehicles during peak hours. 155 00:09:59,400 --> 00:10:04,720 Speaker 1: Channel five Flex alert presents unique challenges for electric vehicle drivers. 156 00:10:05,679 --> 00:10:10,160 Speaker 1: Channel four as California pushes towards evs, flex alert asked 157 00:10:10,200 --> 00:10:13,880 Speaker 1: people not to charge cars during peak hours. So suddenly 158 00:10:13,920 --> 00:10:18,280 Speaker 1: it has filtered into the brains of these news department 159 00:10:18,400 --> 00:10:22,160 Speaker 1: that these news departments that this is nuts, this is 160 00:10:22,240 --> 00:10:25,960 Speaker 1: nuts to issue a mandate banning gas powered cars and 161 00:10:26,040 --> 00:10:28,080 Speaker 1: at the same time saying, well, we don't have the power, 162 00:10:28,640 --> 00:10:34,000 Speaker 1: we I think I think electric cars are two percent 163 00:10:34,160 --> 00:10:38,960 Speaker 1: of the automobiles we have out there. There's thirty million 164 00:10:39,120 --> 00:10:45,320 Speaker 1: automobiles registered in California, thirty million, and I think there's 165 00:10:45,400 --> 00:10:49,520 Speaker 1: just a million some that are electric. It's about two 166 00:10:49,520 --> 00:10:53,640 Speaker 1: percent or so. So if we have ninety eight percent 167 00:10:53,679 --> 00:10:57,760 Speaker 1: gas powered cars and we only have two percent electric 168 00:10:57,760 --> 00:11:03,720 Speaker 1: cars and they don't have the electricity available to charge 169 00:11:03,800 --> 00:11:06,679 Speaker 1: up the two percent, then where are we going with 170 00:11:06,720 --> 00:11:12,280 Speaker 1: this gas powered car band? We'll go play. A report 171 00:11:12,320 --> 00:11:17,640 Speaker 1: here from Channel four NBC's Ted Chen Pasadena calls it 172 00:11:17,679 --> 00:11:21,080 Speaker 1: the nation's largest ev public charging station, and today some 173 00:11:21,200 --> 00:11:24,240 Speaker 1: drivers told us they could avoid charging their cars between 174 00:11:24,240 --> 00:11:27,720 Speaker 1: four and nine PM, while others said it would be difficult. Wow, 175 00:11:27,720 --> 00:11:30,080 Speaker 1: it's going to be difficult to avoid charging between four 176 00:11:30,080 --> 00:11:32,200 Speaker 1: and nine because that's when I usually charge. Well, I 177 00:11:32,200 --> 00:11:35,400 Speaker 1: think it's really doable. There's no reason not to. It's 178 00:11:35,440 --> 00:11:39,040 Speaker 1: not feasible for somebody who works money through Friday like myself, 179 00:11:39,200 --> 00:11:42,199 Speaker 1: so unfortunately I won't be able to do it. California's 180 00:11:42,200 --> 00:11:44,880 Speaker 1: Flex Alert is asking us to treat electric cars like 181 00:11:44,920 --> 00:11:47,960 Speaker 1: a washer or dryer at home, avoid powering them during 182 00:11:47,960 --> 00:11:51,240 Speaker 1: the peak hours of four to nine pm. LADWP and 183 00:11:51,360 --> 00:11:54,960 Speaker 1: southern California. Edison say, the extreme heat is creating enormous 184 00:11:54,960 --> 00:11:58,120 Speaker 1: demand for electricity, and if the system is overloaded, there 185 00:11:58,160 --> 00:12:00,920 Speaker 1: is a greater likelihood of outages. So that's the thing 186 00:12:00,920 --> 00:12:04,079 Speaker 1: that we're most concerned about in Los Angeles is actually 187 00:12:04,120 --> 00:12:07,040 Speaker 1: just overtaxing the equipment, not having a cool down, and 188 00:12:07,080 --> 00:12:10,079 Speaker 1: then having a breakdown. Timing here it makes all the difference. 189 00:12:10,360 --> 00:12:13,320 Speaker 1: Edison says. There are incentive programs that reduce rates for 190 00:12:13,320 --> 00:12:17,280 Speaker 1: people who use power during non peak hours. Ladwp says 191 00:12:17,320 --> 00:12:20,320 Speaker 1: that's become even more important because the drought has reduced 192 00:12:20,320 --> 00:12:24,360 Speaker 1: the availability of electricity generated by hydro power. If everybody's 193 00:12:24,360 --> 00:12:26,959 Speaker 1: pitching in to do their part and just making these 194 00:12:27,000 --> 00:12:29,600 Speaker 1: small changes, it really can make or make a huge 195 00:12:29,600 --> 00:12:32,760 Speaker 1: difference for everyone. Anything generates heat, you know, anything that 196 00:12:33,040 --> 00:12:35,760 Speaker 1: runs machinery, If you could reduce that from the hours 197 00:12:35,760 --> 00:12:38,680 Speaker 1: of four to nine PM, it'll make a world of difference. 198 00:12:38,840 --> 00:12:40,920 Speaker 1: Most importantly, it will help keep your own power on you. 199 00:12:42,600 --> 00:12:44,320 Speaker 1: This is what snuts. Why do we have to do 200 00:12:44,360 --> 00:12:49,040 Speaker 1: all this? Oh, you know, just just plug in after 201 00:12:49,360 --> 00:12:52,319 Speaker 1: you know, eleven o'clock at night. Just do this. It'll 202 00:12:52,360 --> 00:12:54,920 Speaker 1: be helpful for you. It'll be good for you. No, 203 00:12:55,880 --> 00:13:00,640 Speaker 1: we pay hundreds of billions dollars tax money. We pay 204 00:13:00,679 --> 00:13:04,400 Speaker 1: the highest electric electricity rates in the nation. And now 205 00:13:04,400 --> 00:13:09,080 Speaker 1: you're saying, well, just do this, just yeah, don't go 206 00:13:09,160 --> 00:13:11,679 Speaker 1: to bed early, just you know, eleven o'clock, go out 207 00:13:11,720 --> 00:13:16,520 Speaker 1: and charge your cart. No, that's not the way it works. 208 00:13:17,160 --> 00:13:21,000 Speaker 1: And I've seen this response from some of these environmental 209 00:13:21,160 --> 00:13:25,120 Speaker 1: nuts online. Oh, it's not so much of a sacrifice. Oh, 210 00:13:25,160 --> 00:13:28,360 Speaker 1: it's not that big an ask. Everything is. It's not 211 00:13:28,440 --> 00:13:31,719 Speaker 1: that big. They sound exactly like the mask craft. Oh, 212 00:13:31,760 --> 00:13:33,920 Speaker 1: it's not that big a deal to wear a mask. 213 00:13:35,280 --> 00:13:39,480 Speaker 1: Yes it is. It's my face and it's the government 214 00:13:39,520 --> 00:13:44,360 Speaker 1: interfering in my face for no good reason. Oh, remind 215 00:13:44,400 --> 00:13:46,160 Speaker 1: me to get to that today. I don't know if 216 00:13:46,160 --> 00:13:52,720 Speaker 1: you've seen the latest COVID numbers in Los Angeles. Let's 217 00:13:52,920 --> 00:13:56,679 Speaker 1: let's see. Let me you know, Michael Schellenberger. I'm gonna 218 00:13:56,679 --> 00:14:01,600 Speaker 1: get to this coming up after the two thirty news. 219 00:14:01,960 --> 00:14:05,640 Speaker 1: He put out a list at tweets yesterday. Michael Schellenberger. 220 00:14:05,640 --> 00:14:07,200 Speaker 1: We just had him on a couple of days ago. 221 00:14:08,160 --> 00:14:12,240 Speaker 1: He is a brilliant guy on several fronts, and you know, 222 00:14:12,280 --> 00:14:15,480 Speaker 1: he ran for governor against Newsom. So you know, the 223 00:14:15,520 --> 00:14:18,200 Speaker 1: guy with the sixty two IQ beats the guy with 224 00:14:18,320 --> 00:14:21,800 Speaker 1: the one hundred and eighty IQ. That's the world we 225 00:14:21,880 --> 00:14:24,440 Speaker 1: live in. We have a guy with a gets elected 226 00:14:24,440 --> 00:14:29,000 Speaker 1: because of his jaw line in his hair. And Schellenberger 227 00:14:29,120 --> 00:14:36,320 Speaker 1: is this former progressive who was a homeless advocate and 228 00:14:36,480 --> 00:14:40,000 Speaker 1: was for also an environmental advocate, and then over the 229 00:14:40,080 --> 00:14:42,320 Speaker 1: last thirty years has realized that a lot of the 230 00:14:42,320 --> 00:14:48,840 Speaker 1: people that were his allies are nots and these policies 231 00:14:48,880 --> 00:14:51,880 Speaker 1: haven't worked, and they haven't worked for years and decades, 232 00:14:52,560 --> 00:14:55,960 Speaker 1: but they keep pushing that these failed policies and it's 233 00:14:56,000 --> 00:14:59,320 Speaker 1: now the point of insanity. And so now you have 234 00:14:59,400 --> 00:15:05,520 Speaker 1: a government telling you after lecturing you four decades. I mean, 235 00:15:05,920 --> 00:15:09,360 Speaker 1: this push for electric cars goes back I think to 236 00:15:09,560 --> 00:15:15,240 Speaker 1: nineteen ninety that I can remember. They had some kind 237 00:15:15,240 --> 00:15:18,520 Speaker 1: of mandate I think around nineteen ninety that a certain 238 00:15:19,040 --> 00:15:25,040 Speaker 1: number of cars had to be electric in the state, 239 00:15:25,200 --> 00:15:27,440 Speaker 1: that dealers had to sell a certain amount, that the 240 00:15:27,480 --> 00:15:31,640 Speaker 1: government had to buy a certain amount. Nobody wanted them then, 241 00:15:31,920 --> 00:15:34,400 Speaker 1: because you know, roll back thirty years, there wasn't exactly 242 00:15:34,800 --> 00:15:39,880 Speaker 1: those weren't Tesla's and so what happened to satisfy the mandate, 243 00:15:40,520 --> 00:15:45,560 Speaker 1: they bought tons of golf carts. I think at the 244 00:15:45,600 --> 00:15:48,800 Speaker 1: time the government agencies were buying dozens and dozens of 245 00:15:48,800 --> 00:15:52,640 Speaker 1: golf carts and parking them in lots just to meet 246 00:15:52,800 --> 00:15:56,080 Speaker 1: the idiotic government quota. I mean, it was straight out 247 00:15:56,120 --> 00:16:00,320 Speaker 1: of the Soviet Union, just a completely irrational, arbitrary, ary 248 00:16:00,360 --> 00:16:04,200 Speaker 1: demand that there was no rational answer to, and so 249 00:16:04,240 --> 00:16:06,920 Speaker 1: you had to do something insane to say, wow, we 250 00:16:07,000 --> 00:16:13,200 Speaker 1: met the goal that the government required. And you know, 251 00:16:13,920 --> 00:16:19,640 Speaker 1: now he wrote a series of tweets yesterday about this 252 00:16:20,240 --> 00:16:23,480 Speaker 1: electric car mandate, and when we come back, I'm going 253 00:16:23,560 --> 00:16:27,520 Speaker 1: to get to them. It's nice to see though that 254 00:16:27,640 --> 00:16:30,480 Speaker 1: the rest of the media is picking up on this. 255 00:16:32,400 --> 00:16:34,600 Speaker 1: I think everybody you know, it's going to be a 256 00:16:34,600 --> 00:16:37,280 Speaker 1: slow bill because it's thirteen years, but you're you're gonna 257 00:16:37,320 --> 00:16:41,680 Speaker 1: see twenty twenty six. The car dealers are supposed to 258 00:16:41,720 --> 00:16:45,280 Speaker 1: sell thirty five percent of electric cars, which means you're 259 00:16:45,320 --> 00:16:48,560 Speaker 1: going to go to you're gonna go to a dealership 260 00:16:49,160 --> 00:16:52,560 Speaker 1: and only thirty five percent of the cars. Well, thirty 261 00:16:52,600 --> 00:16:54,600 Speaker 1: five percent of the cars will be electric. Only sixty 262 00:16:54,600 --> 00:16:56,560 Speaker 1: five percent of the cars will be gas powered, right, 263 00:16:57,160 --> 00:17:01,000 Speaker 1: so when you go to the dealership, the inventor if 264 00:17:01,000 --> 00:17:04,040 Speaker 1: you want a gas powered car is slashed by over 265 00:17:04,080 --> 00:17:09,159 Speaker 1: a third, fewer cars. Most people are gonna still want 266 00:17:09,240 --> 00:17:12,639 Speaker 1: gas powered cars because, believe me, they're not going to 267 00:17:12,680 --> 00:17:15,119 Speaker 1: build the charging stations and they're not going to expand 268 00:17:15,160 --> 00:17:18,440 Speaker 1: the electrical grid over the next three years. Remember who's 269 00:17:18,440 --> 00:17:21,919 Speaker 1: in charge here, it's still gonna be Newsome in charge. 270 00:17:24,280 --> 00:17:27,479 Speaker 1: So you're gonna go and you're gonna have high demand 271 00:17:27,520 --> 00:17:32,960 Speaker 1: for gas powered cars, limited supply. What's that mean? Prices 272 00:17:33,000 --> 00:17:36,880 Speaker 1: are gonna go crazy. In fact, if you've got room 273 00:17:36,960 --> 00:17:39,600 Speaker 1: to park your car at a garage, you're in a backyard. Sowhere. 274 00:17:39,680 --> 00:17:42,840 Speaker 1: I'd buy a car now because I gotta believe the 275 00:17:42,840 --> 00:17:45,720 Speaker 1: prices for new automobiles are going to be insane in 276 00:17:45,760 --> 00:17:49,920 Speaker 1: twenty twenty six, because they're gonna cuts the supply at 277 00:17:49,920 --> 00:17:53,719 Speaker 1: each dealership by a third. And then you're gonna have 278 00:17:53,800 --> 00:17:58,320 Speaker 1: all these electric hulks, and again they're not Tesla's. They're 279 00:17:58,320 --> 00:18:01,639 Speaker 1: gonna be really expensive. They're still not going to be 280 00:18:01,720 --> 00:18:08,080 Speaker 1: charging stations, and god knows what the electricity situation will 281 00:18:08,119 --> 00:18:13,200 Speaker 1: be in the state. Because their goals are to provide 282 00:18:13,240 --> 00:18:16,680 Speaker 1: more unreliable wind and solar power. It's not like they're 283 00:18:16,720 --> 00:18:21,760 Speaker 1: building nuclear power plants. Imagine if the drought continues and 284 00:18:21,840 --> 00:18:26,520 Speaker 1: they lose even more hydroelectric power. When Schellenberger is on 285 00:18:26,560 --> 00:18:29,240 Speaker 1: the show the other day, he said, this is all 286 00:18:29,280 --> 00:18:33,320 Speaker 1: going to get worse. This is only the beginning because 287 00:18:33,359 --> 00:18:37,320 Speaker 1: everything's going in the wrong direction. Everything the wind and 288 00:18:37,320 --> 00:18:39,240 Speaker 1: solar are not paying off. They're not going to start 289 00:18:39,240 --> 00:18:42,080 Speaker 1: paying off tomorrow or next year or the year after that. 290 00:18:42,440 --> 00:18:45,080 Speaker 1: There's still nowhere to store the power from wind and solar. 291 00:18:45,119 --> 00:18:48,000 Speaker 1: There are no battery technology isn't there. It's not going 292 00:18:48,080 --> 00:18:49,760 Speaker 1: to be next there, next year, it's not going to 293 00:18:49,840 --> 00:18:52,520 Speaker 1: be there in twenty twenty six. It's not going to 294 00:18:52,560 --> 00:18:57,280 Speaker 1: be there. And companies are going to have difficulty getting 295 00:18:57,280 --> 00:19:01,040 Speaker 1: the raw materials from all over the world to build 296 00:19:01,560 --> 00:19:05,240 Speaker 1: electric cars. That supply is going to be limited, which 297 00:19:05,320 --> 00:19:07,439 Speaker 1: is going to cause the price of electric cars to 298 00:19:07,560 --> 00:19:11,720 Speaker 1: shoot up. And they're already really expensive. They're already in 299 00:19:11,760 --> 00:19:18,280 Speaker 1: the fifty sixty seventy thousand dollars range, which ordinarily wouldn't matter. Hey, 300 00:19:18,400 --> 00:19:22,879 Speaker 1: whatever the market bears, the market bears. But this has 301 00:19:22,920 --> 00:19:27,160 Speaker 1: now been warped and dictated by crazy people in Sacramento 302 00:19:27,680 --> 00:19:32,439 Speaker 1: with these electric car bandates. Take a break, come back. 303 00:19:32,440 --> 00:19:35,800 Speaker 1: You're gonna talk about Schellenberger's tweets, which really explains in 304 00:19:35,920 --> 00:19:38,240 Speaker 1: detail how nets this is John and Ken show CAFI 305 00:19:38,480 --> 00:19:40,439 Speaker 1: when I got up here on the screen, if the 306 00:19:40,520 --> 00:19:46,080 Speaker 1: screen would refresh properly. Is the Michael Schellenberger tweets where 307 00:19:46,080 --> 00:19:51,720 Speaker 1: he explained everything that's wrong with this electricity issue. And 308 00:19:52,640 --> 00:19:55,639 Speaker 1: give me a second here. I don't know why this 309 00:19:55,720 --> 00:20:02,360 Speaker 1: is doing this because he put together the math on 310 00:20:02,480 --> 00:20:07,159 Speaker 1: how many gigawatts of electricity we're going to need to 311 00:20:07,280 --> 00:20:11,240 Speaker 1: do this, and now my whole system has gone dead. 312 00:20:12,920 --> 00:20:23,600 Speaker 1: Hold on, hold on, sorry about that. We had a 313 00:20:23,600 --> 00:20:30,440 Speaker 1: computer sees up here, So we are going to use 314 00:20:30,480 --> 00:20:34,560 Speaker 1: today at at the peak, forty five thousand megawats of electricity. 315 00:20:35,920 --> 00:20:38,800 Speaker 1: To make that simpler, forty five thousand megawatts is forty 316 00:20:38,800 --> 00:20:44,920 Speaker 1: five gigawatts. And what Schellenberger has laid out is how 317 00:20:44,960 --> 00:20:50,040 Speaker 1: many gigawatts we have to create in order to power 318 00:20:50,119 --> 00:20:56,080 Speaker 1: all these electric cars. And we have to create so 319 00:20:56,200 --> 00:21:01,439 Speaker 1: much that it's impossible that our government is ever going 320 00:21:01,520 --> 00:21:05,080 Speaker 1: to do that. Now I'm going to call up his 321 00:21:05,240 --> 00:21:09,320 Speaker 1: tweets from August the thirty first here and you will 322 00:21:09,359 --> 00:21:16,200 Speaker 1: see what I'm talking about. Here we go, so he wrote. 323 00:21:17,000 --> 00:21:20,240 Speaker 1: He started off by saying, August twenty fourth, California bans 324 00:21:20,280 --> 00:21:23,280 Speaker 1: the sale of new gasoline powered cars. And then August 325 00:21:23,280 --> 00:21:28,480 Speaker 1: the thirtieth, that's when Californians ask are asked to stop 326 00:21:28,560 --> 00:21:32,359 Speaker 1: charging their electric vehicles. So here's what he wrote in 327 00:21:32,359 --> 00:21:37,680 Speaker 1: this long thread. Of California's thirty million plus motor vehicles, 328 00:21:38,600 --> 00:21:42,640 Speaker 1: less than two percent are electric. Five hundred sixty three thousand, 329 00:21:42,680 --> 00:21:45,000 Speaker 1: all right, and we have almost forty million people in 330 00:21:45,000 --> 00:21:47,879 Speaker 1: the state. There's only five hundred and sixty three thousand 331 00:21:47,880 --> 00:21:52,040 Speaker 1: electric vehicles. So as far as a product, it's a dud. 332 00:21:52,680 --> 00:21:56,520 Speaker 1: And California has almost half of the electric cars in 333 00:21:56,560 --> 00:22:01,320 Speaker 1: the country. Most of the country as zero interest in this. 334 00:22:02,080 --> 00:22:05,040 Speaker 1: We have a mild interest because we have a disproportionate 335 00:22:05,119 --> 00:22:08,920 Speaker 1: number of very wealthy people who like them for toys. Now, 336 00:22:09,320 --> 00:22:11,240 Speaker 1: I told you we're using right now about forty five 337 00:22:11,280 --> 00:22:14,840 Speaker 1: gigawatts of electricity today, and we're on a flex alert 338 00:22:14,880 --> 00:22:17,879 Speaker 1: because that's pushing up to our limit. Well, using the 339 00:22:17,880 --> 00:22:21,800 Speaker 1: state's own estimates, California is going to need seventeen gigawatts 340 00:22:21,800 --> 00:22:27,639 Speaker 1: of additional electricity to power all these electric cars. To 341 00:22:27,720 --> 00:22:30,320 Speaker 1: give you the example of how much that is, they 342 00:22:30,320 --> 00:22:32,399 Speaker 1: were going to shut down the Diablo can a nuclear 343 00:22:32,400 --> 00:22:36,000 Speaker 1: power plant, and then change their minds because that would 344 00:22:36,000 --> 00:22:40,200 Speaker 1: have thrown us into blackout status. Well, Diablo only produces 345 00:22:40,920 --> 00:22:48,320 Speaker 1: a little over two gigawatts, and we need seventeen. The 346 00:22:48,480 --> 00:22:53,000 Speaker 1: California Energy Commission says the state's going to require four 347 00:22:53,359 --> 00:22:56,760 Speaker 1: point six gigawatts minimum to fuel seven and a half 348 00:22:56,760 --> 00:23:04,119 Speaker 1: million electric vehicles, And he does all these different math calculations. 349 00:23:05,200 --> 00:23:07,840 Speaker 1: If you try to do this from wind and solar, 350 00:23:08,680 --> 00:23:12,880 Speaker 1: you're going to require three hundred seventy nine times more 351 00:23:13,040 --> 00:23:18,760 Speaker 1: land with solar panels. You're gonna need four hundred twenty 352 00:23:18,800 --> 00:23:23,880 Speaker 1: one times more land from wind turbines. So you look 353 00:23:23,920 --> 00:23:25,960 Speaker 1: at all the solar panels we have laid out in 354 00:23:25,960 --> 00:23:31,280 Speaker 1: the state. If you're going to power even if you're 355 00:23:31,320 --> 00:23:35,280 Speaker 1: gonna power thirty million electrical vehicles, you're gonna have to 356 00:23:35,320 --> 00:23:37,560 Speaker 1: take whatever solar land we have now and multiply it 357 00:23:37,640 --> 00:23:40,440 Speaker 1: by three hundred and seventy nine. Where you going to 358 00:23:40,520 --> 00:23:44,639 Speaker 1: do that, It's not gonna happen. It's impossible. You take 359 00:23:44,680 --> 00:23:47,320 Speaker 1: all the wind turbine land we have, and if you've 360 00:23:47,320 --> 00:23:49,439 Speaker 1: gone down the ten towards Palm Springs, you see that 361 00:23:49,480 --> 00:23:52,720 Speaker 1: covers a vast area. Multiply that by four hundred and 362 00:23:52,800 --> 00:23:56,240 Speaker 1: twenty one times, and he writes that's simply not going 363 00:23:56,320 --> 00:23:59,200 Speaker 1: to happen because the projects would kill so many threatened 364 00:23:59,240 --> 00:24:07,840 Speaker 1: birds and desert tortoises that they'd risk extinction. In fact, 365 00:24:08,040 --> 00:24:10,280 Speaker 1: he's quotes an article here which I haven't read yet, 366 00:24:10,280 --> 00:24:13,440 Speaker 1: but get into it one day, why renewables can't save 367 00:24:13,480 --> 00:24:20,960 Speaker 1: the planet. And it looks like the state of our 368 00:24:20,960 --> 00:24:24,800 Speaker 1: power is so bad that California Gavin Newsom has just 369 00:24:25,040 --> 00:24:29,159 Speaker 1: ordered one of the state's dirtiest jet fuel burning plants 370 00:24:29,200 --> 00:24:31,880 Speaker 1: to keep operating. He promised to close it down three 371 00:24:31,960 --> 00:24:35,840 Speaker 1: years ago. It burns jet fuel. Who knew that? If 372 00:24:35,880 --> 00:24:39,959 Speaker 1: it existed? Who knew that was a thing. But of 373 00:24:39,960 --> 00:24:42,679 Speaker 1: course you don't see any of this on the news, 374 00:24:42,720 --> 00:24:45,760 Speaker 1: do you. You don't hear this from any of the activists. 375 00:24:46,119 --> 00:24:47,960 Speaker 1: You don't hear this from Newsom or any of the 376 00:24:48,000 --> 00:24:56,320 Speaker 1: politicians in either party. The Democrats flat out lie, the 377 00:24:56,440 --> 00:25:04,119 Speaker 1: Republicans seem to be dead. And here Schellenberger is doing 378 00:25:04,119 --> 00:25:10,120 Speaker 1: all the math. And of course the activists fight him, 379 00:25:10,680 --> 00:25:17,000 Speaker 1: but they never dispute his numbers, because the activists want 380 00:25:17,080 --> 00:25:21,679 Speaker 1: us to live much smaller lives. And that is the 381 00:25:21,720 --> 00:25:27,200 Speaker 1: dirty secret about these progressive activists, these woke activists. They 382 00:25:27,240 --> 00:25:31,680 Speaker 1: don't want you driving. They don't want you to have 383 00:25:31,800 --> 00:25:35,080 Speaker 1: swimming pools or lawns. They don't want you to have 384 00:25:35,160 --> 00:25:38,080 Speaker 1: a big house out in the suburbs. They want you 385 00:25:38,160 --> 00:25:40,960 Speaker 1: to live small in little apartments. They want you to 386 00:25:41,040 --> 00:25:44,680 Speaker 1: bike around or take little trolley cars to your job. 387 00:25:46,000 --> 00:25:51,399 Speaker 1: They don't like modern American life that's driven by capitalism. 388 00:25:51,440 --> 00:25:55,560 Speaker 1: That's what animates them. So what they do is very slowly, 389 00:25:56,800 --> 00:26:00,400 Speaker 1: by making hysterical claims about the climate and everything else, 390 00:26:01,160 --> 00:26:06,679 Speaker 1: try to bully you, frighten you into a smaller life. 391 00:26:07,119 --> 00:26:09,399 Speaker 1: Oh you got to drive an electric car? Okay, I 392 00:26:09,400 --> 00:26:12,000 Speaker 1: guess I will. But you can't charge it during the day. 393 00:26:12,320 --> 00:26:14,840 Speaker 1: All really? Oh well, all right, I'll just do it. 394 00:26:14,880 --> 00:26:18,520 Speaker 1: I'll just get up late at night and do it. Well, 395 00:26:18,600 --> 00:26:21,320 Speaker 1: we don't have any charging stations. Oh I see, Well 396 00:26:21,359 --> 00:26:23,199 Speaker 1: maybe maybe i'll just you know, get up early on 397 00:26:23,200 --> 00:26:25,000 Speaker 1: a Sunday morning. I just do it for a couple 398 00:26:25,040 --> 00:26:30,160 Speaker 1: of hours so I can drive to charge. That's where 399 00:26:30,200 --> 00:26:34,680 Speaker 1: this is headed and it's all been exposed this week, 400 00:26:36,200 --> 00:26:39,199 Speaker 1: and that's why Newsom went in a panic, had this 401 00:26:39,280 --> 00:26:46,840 Speaker 1: big speech. We carried it live because he knew everybody 402 00:26:46,920 --> 00:26:49,159 Speaker 1: is screwed up here. We got to keep the nuclear 403 00:26:49,200 --> 00:26:51,960 Speaker 1: plant running, we got to start up the jet fuel plant. 404 00:26:52,359 --> 00:26:56,160 Speaker 1: We've got to buy energy from coal plants and other states. 405 00:26:57,400 --> 00:27:02,440 Speaker 1: We've got to restart natural gas plants. The whole thing 406 00:27:02,640 --> 00:27:05,720 Speaker 1: was a sham. Do you think we have the land 407 00:27:05,880 --> 00:27:10,159 Speaker 1: for three hundred and seventy nine times the amount of 408 00:27:10,200 --> 00:27:13,840 Speaker 1: solar panel acreage, four hundred and twenty one times the 409 00:27:13,880 --> 00:27:18,119 Speaker 1: amount of wind turbine acreage. Where is that going to be? 410 00:27:18,760 --> 00:27:20,760 Speaker 1: What kind of environmental damage is that going to do? 411 00:27:21,600 --> 00:27:23,840 Speaker 1: I been telling you this whole thing is a scam 412 00:27:23,920 --> 00:27:28,200 Speaker 1: and it's been a hoax. And this heat wave starting 413 00:27:28,200 --> 00:27:32,359 Speaker 1: to pull the curtain away from the wizard John and 414 00:27:32,440 --> 00:27:34,920 Speaker 1: Cann Cafeie. One of the things is we've been tracking 415 00:27:34,920 --> 00:27:39,040 Speaker 1: the energy shortage that the government has created here in 416 00:27:39,080 --> 00:27:42,199 Speaker 1: California as comparing it to Germany. Germany, as you know, 417 00:27:42,320 --> 00:27:46,760 Speaker 1: when all ind for wind and solar and they you know, 418 00:27:46,800 --> 00:27:50,800 Speaker 1: they were shutting down nuclear plants and they had to 419 00:27:51,920 --> 00:27:54,479 Speaker 1: they had to rely heavily on rush and natural gas 420 00:27:54,520 --> 00:27:57,760 Speaker 1: because the wind and the solar fell way short of expectations. 421 00:27:59,080 --> 00:28:04,280 Speaker 1: They had of giving up on other sources of energy, 422 00:28:04,359 --> 00:28:07,400 Speaker 1: and so it was all wind, all solar, and when 423 00:28:07,960 --> 00:28:11,240 Speaker 1: that turned out to be far less than expected, they 424 00:28:11,400 --> 00:28:15,520 Speaker 1: started buying enormous amounts of Russian natural gas. Then Russia 425 00:28:15,640 --> 00:28:23,320 Speaker 1: invaded Ukraine and relations became strained because Germany is part 426 00:28:23,320 --> 00:28:26,159 Speaker 1: of the coalition that is supplying money and weaponry to 427 00:28:26,320 --> 00:28:28,480 Speaker 1: Ukraine against Russia. So many you think is going to happen. 428 00:28:29,840 --> 00:28:36,440 Speaker 1: Then since there were still countries, German countries, I'm sorry, 429 00:28:36,440 --> 00:28:40,040 Speaker 1: European countries buying some oil from Russia, they decided they 430 00:28:40,040 --> 00:28:42,520 Speaker 1: were going to put a price cap on what they 431 00:28:42,560 --> 00:28:48,040 Speaker 1: would pay Russia. This is what all the major economic 432 00:28:48,120 --> 00:28:50,560 Speaker 1: nations in the world agreed on just the other day. 433 00:28:50,600 --> 00:28:53,080 Speaker 1: They're going to institute a price cap. They're gonna tell Russia, Ay, 434 00:28:53,280 --> 00:28:57,200 Speaker 1: we're unionized now, we're only gonna pay so much for oil. Well, 435 00:28:57,320 --> 00:29:04,160 Speaker 1: today putin Russia just gave Germany the big middle finger. 436 00:29:05,480 --> 00:29:10,000 Speaker 1: They have cut off all gas supplies to Germany, all 437 00:29:10,040 --> 00:29:15,840 Speaker 1: gas supplies, claiming that they have a leak. It's going 438 00:29:15,880 --> 00:29:21,040 Speaker 1: to take a long time to fix this. Yeah, don't 439 00:29:21,080 --> 00:29:24,360 Speaker 1: call us, We'll call you on it. They shot off 440 00:29:24,360 --> 00:29:28,719 Speaker 1: the gas supply to Germany. Now Germany was afraid this 441 00:29:28,760 --> 00:29:32,120 Speaker 1: would happen, but it is a catastrophe for the entire 442 00:29:32,240 --> 00:29:38,800 Speaker 1: European Union. The European Union has filled up their natural 443 00:29:38,840 --> 00:29:44,200 Speaker 1: gas facilities to eighty percent capacity, but that'll last less 444 00:29:44,240 --> 00:29:50,160 Speaker 1: than three months. So if so, if Russia doesn't start 445 00:29:50,240 --> 00:29:53,400 Speaker 1: up the natural gas supply in the next three months, 446 00:29:53,400 --> 00:29:59,720 Speaker 1: and they may not because they're staying indefinitely. They were 447 00:29:59,760 --> 00:30:02,880 Speaker 1: saying a few days now, it's a lot of days. 448 00:30:04,040 --> 00:30:08,200 Speaker 1: But if they don't restart the gas early December, then 449 00:30:08,440 --> 00:30:11,720 Speaker 1: Europe's going to run out of natural gas. Early December 450 00:30:11,800 --> 00:30:17,200 Speaker 1: would be well into the European winter. They get winter 451 00:30:17,280 --> 00:30:20,360 Speaker 1: early over there, and it's really bad and really cold, 452 00:30:21,320 --> 00:30:23,200 Speaker 1: and there's not gonna be a natural gas and that 453 00:30:23,320 --> 00:30:28,000 Speaker 1: is the primary source of heat for many people in 454 00:30:28,040 --> 00:30:34,320 Speaker 1: Europe and for the whole European Union. Is it's seventy 455 00:30:34,360 --> 00:30:37,480 Speaker 1: nine percent capacity, and I'm just looking at all the 456 00:30:37,520 --> 00:30:44,080 Speaker 1: countries whole. In Portugal, United Kingdom or near one hundred percent, Italy, 457 00:30:44,240 --> 00:30:48,280 Speaker 1: the Czech Republic closer to eighty percent. It averages out 458 00:30:48,360 --> 00:30:53,160 Speaker 1: to eighty and in three months they're going to be out. 459 00:30:54,600 --> 00:30:59,120 Speaker 1: And it's because they haven't developed all the other sources 460 00:30:59,120 --> 00:31:02,520 Speaker 1: of energy that they needed to develop. They bet on 461 00:31:02,560 --> 00:31:07,040 Speaker 1: wind and solar. So you watch California, and you watch 462 00:31:07,160 --> 00:31:09,920 Speaker 1: Germany and the rest of Europe, and you see what 463 00:31:10,040 --> 00:31:14,520 Speaker 1: happens with this wind and solar experiment. For years, we've 464 00:31:14,560 --> 00:31:16,479 Speaker 1: been saying this is going to hit, this is going 465 00:31:16,520 --> 00:31:19,640 Speaker 1: to lead us to a bad end. Oh, you're just 466 00:31:19,680 --> 00:31:21,720 Speaker 1: a climate denier. It's like an it's got if they 467 00:31:21,800 --> 00:31:26,240 Speaker 1: do with the climate, maybe the climate's warming doesn't matter. 468 00:31:26,960 --> 00:31:30,640 Speaker 1: The wind and solar energy is not at a point 469 00:31:30,640 --> 00:31:33,360 Speaker 1: technologically where we can rely on it to supply all 470 00:31:33,360 --> 00:31:38,640 Speaker 1: our needs. And this is now being proven here and 471 00:31:38,760 --> 00:31:42,800 Speaker 1: in Europe. So what are you going to do. You're 472 00:31:42,760 --> 00:31:46,080 Speaker 1: going to run out of power here in California and 473 00:31:46,200 --> 00:31:48,040 Speaker 1: you won't be able to plug in your electric car. 474 00:31:48,960 --> 00:31:50,760 Speaker 1: Are they going to go without heat in Germany and 475 00:31:50,760 --> 00:31:54,040 Speaker 1: people are going to freeze to death? You tell me 476 00:31:54,080 --> 00:31:57,040 Speaker 1: what road to take here. But this is what happens 477 00:31:57,080 --> 00:32:00,200 Speaker 1: with hysteria. Everybody gets hyped up, everybody gets hysteric. Well, 478 00:32:00,360 --> 00:32:03,520 Speaker 1: they go to drastic measures. You see hysteria Hysteria happens 479 00:32:03,520 --> 00:32:08,600 Speaker 1: in companies. Hysteria happens in families. Hysteria happens in communities. 480 00:32:09,120 --> 00:32:11,840 Speaker 1: They happen, you know, in religious cults, and they end 481 00:32:11,920 --> 00:32:17,640 Speaker 1: up murdering people, sacrificing people, they start chasing witches around. 482 00:32:19,960 --> 00:32:22,000 Speaker 1: Is another hysteria we went through, and this one was 483 00:32:22,040 --> 00:32:26,040 Speaker 1: only six weeks ago. Barbara Ferrera, who's the leader of 484 00:32:26,080 --> 00:32:29,840 Speaker 1: the COVID cult, the head of public health in La County, 485 00:32:29,880 --> 00:32:32,200 Speaker 1: what was she doing six weeks ago? She was going 486 00:32:32,240 --> 00:32:36,040 Speaker 1: to introduce a mask mandate, right cases, we're going up 487 00:32:36,600 --> 00:32:41,760 Speaker 1: the CDC using these mysterious, complicated formulas you talk about witchcraft. 488 00:32:42,840 --> 00:32:44,880 Speaker 1: And they said, oh, you know, we're in the high 489 00:32:44,880 --> 00:32:47,920 Speaker 1: transmission range. Barbara Ferrere, Oh, we're gonna have a mask 490 00:32:48,000 --> 00:32:53,400 Speaker 1: mandate on a Friday, remember, And then there was tremendous 491 00:32:53,480 --> 00:32:57,120 Speaker 1: pushback from the public, tremendous pushback from businesses into our 492 00:32:57,160 --> 00:33:02,320 Speaker 1: mask mandate. Oh, we're in a high transmiss range. And 493 00:33:02,360 --> 00:33:06,080 Speaker 1: then the county supervisor started to crumble, first one, then two, 494 00:33:06,160 --> 00:33:09,800 Speaker 1: then three, and then Barbara fur backed off and said, well, 495 00:33:09,800 --> 00:33:11,800 Speaker 1: we were not as high as we thought we were 496 00:33:11,840 --> 00:33:18,080 Speaker 1: gonna be. Guess what the news today is less than 497 00:33:18,160 --> 00:33:22,400 Speaker 1: six weeks later, La County officially moved into the low 498 00:33:23,360 --> 00:33:31,040 Speaker 1: COVID activity level, low falling rate of infections, falling rate 499 00:33:31,160 --> 00:33:37,920 Speaker 1: of hospitalizations. How about that? And it was done without 500 00:33:38,000 --> 00:33:41,280 Speaker 1: a mask band date. Now I have to know and 501 00:33:41,440 --> 00:33:46,240 Speaker 1: somebody should demand an answer. How did this happen? They 502 00:33:46,240 --> 00:33:48,840 Speaker 1: were in the alleged high level and it was going 503 00:33:48,920 --> 00:33:51,440 Speaker 1: to get really bad unless we all put on masks 504 00:33:51,440 --> 00:33:56,280 Speaker 1: and doors. Well we didn't, and we dropped from the 505 00:33:56,360 --> 00:33:59,960 Speaker 1: high level through the medium level into the low level 506 00:34:01,440 --> 00:34:06,000 Speaker 1: in about five weeks. Oh now that's just not possible, 507 00:34:06,120 --> 00:34:12,319 Speaker 1: is it. Nobody wants to explain this. How did not 508 00:34:12,440 --> 00:34:18,719 Speaker 1: wearing masks cause the virus transmission rate to plummet, cause 509 00:34:18,800 --> 00:34:23,879 Speaker 1: the hospital or hospitalization rate to fall? Does anyone even 510 00:34:23,920 --> 00:34:26,400 Speaker 1: think of asking her? That? Is? There? Is there like 511 00:34:26,440 --> 00:34:31,239 Speaker 1: a single reporter who's not so stuck up, woke and 512 00:34:31,320 --> 00:34:34,600 Speaker 1: progressive that the cal barber frere and said, I thought 513 00:34:34,600 --> 00:34:36,239 Speaker 1: you had to wear the masks to make the rate 514 00:34:36,239 --> 00:34:38,840 Speaker 1: go down, right, it was practically an emergency. So what 515 00:34:38,920 --> 00:34:43,239 Speaker 1: gives Well, I don't know if that would be an 516 00:34:43,239 --> 00:34:47,960 Speaker 1: appropriate question. By the way, out of the people in 517 00:34:48,000 --> 00:34:56,840 Speaker 1: the hospital, forty three percent of them who are positive. 518 00:34:57,280 --> 00:35:03,600 Speaker 1: We're actual, we're admitted for the virus. The other fifty 519 00:35:03,640 --> 00:35:07,880 Speaker 1: seven percent were admitted for other reasons, and some of 520 00:35:07,920 --> 00:35:10,120 Speaker 1: them lonely learned they were infected when they were attested 521 00:35:10,120 --> 00:35:12,439 Speaker 1: to the hospital. So it's the same old thing. There's 522 00:35:12,440 --> 00:35:16,840 Speaker 1: a lot of people walking around with symptom free COVID 523 00:35:16,880 --> 00:35:20,399 Speaker 1: and they don't even know it. But they're not being 524 00:35:20,440 --> 00:35:23,680 Speaker 1: hospitalized over COVID. They're being hospitalized because they got something else. 525 00:35:24,320 --> 00:35:27,319 Speaker 1: And nearly all the patients hospitalized, guess what they had 526 00:35:27,320 --> 00:35:35,600 Speaker 1: in common. They didn't get vaccinated. They're old, they're obese, 527 00:35:36,760 --> 00:35:40,600 Speaker 1: they had diabetes, they had all kinds of organ issues 528 00:35:40,920 --> 00:35:45,960 Speaker 1: their health. Go ahead, go ahead. If anybody sees a report, 529 00:35:46,600 --> 00:35:49,319 Speaker 1: reads a report where they ask Barbara Farere, how did 530 00:35:49,320 --> 00:35:52,520 Speaker 1: the rate drop so dramatically in such a short time 531 00:35:53,040 --> 00:35:58,040 Speaker 1: without everyone mooring masks, because she clearly said the opposite 532 00:35:58,080 --> 00:36:01,399 Speaker 1: was going to happen. All right, when we come back, 533 00:36:01,840 --> 00:36:05,720 Speaker 1: Steve Gregory in here, because the Border Patrol agents grabbed 534 00:36:05,719 --> 00:36:10,480 Speaker 1: a hundred migrants in California San Diego sector. They come 535 00:36:10,560 --> 00:36:14,440 Speaker 1: from many different countries. John and Ken Show, Debra Mark 536 00:36:14,520 --> 00:36:17,480 Speaker 1: has the news.
