It's about because people love the word mansion. 17 00:00:44,200 --> 00:00:47,920 Speaker 1: It's a mansion that apparently has been overrun and trashed 18 00:00:48,000 --> 00:00:51,640 Speaker 1: by squatters at one time, believed to be worth ten 19 00:00:52,120 --> 00:00:56,000 Speaker 1: million dollars. We get the story in more details from 20 00:00:56,200 --> 00:00:57,520 Speaker 1: Blake Trolly CAFI News. 21 00:00:57,600 --> 00:01:00,760 Speaker 2: What did these wild animals do to the imagine? 22 00:01:01,040 --> 00:01:01,600 Speaker 3: I don't know what you know. 23 00:01:01,680 --> 00:01:03,160 Speaker 4: What I was thinking about, guys, is they should have 24 00:01:03,200 --> 00:01:06,120 Speaker 4: contacted the city. Remember what we heard last week, contact 25 00:01:06,120 --> 00:01:07,399 Speaker 4: the city if you're being evicted. 26 00:01:07,680 --> 00:01:12,160 Speaker 2: So I was, oh, right, yeah, was this an illegal 27 00:01:12,560 --> 00:01:14,840 Speaker 2: I'm surprised nobody said yet, let's let people live in 28 00:01:14,880 --> 00:01:17,160 Speaker 2: there since we have somebody homeless people and this place 29 00:01:17,200 --> 00:01:18,200 Speaker 2: is out and unoccupied. 30 00:01:18,760 --> 00:01:21,520 Speaker 4: So anyways, guys, yesterday afternoon police were called to this 31 00:01:21,680 --> 00:01:24,960 Speaker 4: Mediterranean mansion in the Hollywood Hills. This is a fourteen 32 00:01:25,040 --> 00:01:26,479 Speaker 4: thousand square foot mansion. 33 00:01:26,520 --> 00:01:27,680 Speaker 3: I know what you mean there, Ken. 34 00:01:27,920 --> 00:01:30,680 Speaker 4: I think the word mansions often overused. People will use 35 00:01:30,720 --> 00:01:33,120 Speaker 4: it for four or five thousand square foot homes. But 36 00:01:33,120 --> 00:01:35,839 Speaker 4: at fourteen thousand square feet, I think you've inched into 37 00:01:35,880 --> 00:01:39,959 Speaker 4: the mansion zone. To get to this home, you pull 38 00:01:39,959 --> 00:01:43,240 Speaker 4: off Sunset kind of near Carnies and near the comedy store. 39 00:01:43,480 --> 00:01:45,120 Speaker 1: Oh no, wonder Jo knows where it is. 40 00:01:45,440 --> 00:01:46,360 Speaker 2: You just keep. 41 00:01:48,440 --> 00:01:50,600 Speaker 4: You just keep going up and up and up. I 42 00:01:50,600 --> 00:01:53,040 Speaker 4: mean it is way back in the hills. It's actually 43 00:01:53,080 --> 00:01:57,120 Speaker 4: surprising that anybody would even find this home. Yesterday, somebody 44 00:01:57,120 --> 00:01:59,640 Speaker 4: hears a woman screaming. Officers believe she may have been 45 00:01:59,680 --> 00:02:03,320 Speaker 4: bitten by a dog. Police went inside and found three squatters, 46 00:02:03,360 --> 00:02:05,720 Speaker 4: two women and a man. They were removed from the home, 47 00:02:05,760 --> 00:02:09,720 Speaker 4: cuffed and cited for trespassing, then released. One of the 48 00:02:09,720 --> 00:02:12,840 Speaker 4: women told a reporter that this was all misunderstanding and 49 00:02:12,880 --> 00:02:15,760 Speaker 4: that she was there to clean the property up, that 50 00:02:15,800 --> 00:02:17,639 Speaker 4: it may be going back up for sale or back 51 00:02:17,720 --> 00:02:20,360 Speaker 4: up for lease, but a realtor fired back saying no, 52 00:02:20,360 --> 00:02:24,440 Speaker 4: nobody was supposed to be inside the property. Footage from 53 00:02:24,440 --> 00:02:27,240 Speaker 4: inside this property that was taken yesterday shows this home 54 00:02:27,360 --> 00:02:32,079 Speaker 4: absolutely trash. There's graffiti all over the place, trash all 55 00:02:32,120 --> 00:02:35,800 Speaker 4: over the place, debris on the decks, feces on the property. 56 00:02:36,120 --> 00:02:39,040 Speaker 4: Come on, this is a big drop from where the 57 00:02:39,040 --> 00:02:40,880 Speaker 4: house was when it was built in two thousand and 58 00:02:40,919 --> 00:02:44,920 Speaker 4: eight by a well known architect and designer, Redfinn Shows. 59 00:02:44,960 --> 00:02:47,800 Speaker 4: There was a foreclosure sale on the home in twenty thirteen, 60 00:02:48,200 --> 00:02:50,959 Speaker 4: and it's really a mystery right now as to who 61 00:02:51,040 --> 00:02:54,720 Speaker 4: exactly owns this home what they want to do with it. 62 00:02:55,840 --> 00:02:57,639 Speaker 4: You know, I was joking earlier. I was saying, you 63 00:02:57,680 --> 00:03:00,520 Speaker 4: know when homes have an ad that said, you know, 64 00:03:00,720 --> 00:03:03,480 Speaker 4: entertainer's dream, and really they're just alluding to the fact 65 00:03:03,480 --> 00:03:05,960 Speaker 4: that the home has a jacuzzie on the sideyard. This 66 00:03:06,200 --> 00:03:11,720 Speaker 4: actually is an entertainer's dream. Six bedrooms, twelve bathrooms, there's 67 00:03:11,800 --> 00:03:15,239 Speaker 4: a theater that can see eighteen people, a ballroom. 68 00:03:14,760 --> 00:03:15,400 Speaker 1: A look like. 69 00:03:17,360 --> 00:03:18,880 Speaker 3: Guys. I took a video of this. 70 00:03:18,960 --> 00:03:21,040 Speaker 4: I put it on my Twitter app Bake Trolley k IF. 71 00:03:21,080 --> 00:03:24,280 Speaker 4: I retweeted it. Look at the size of this thing 72 00:03:24,639 --> 00:03:27,200 Speaker 4: compared to all the homes around it. I mean even 73 00:03:27,240 --> 00:03:29,440 Speaker 4: in the Hollywood Hills, it sticks out. It is a 74 00:03:29,560 --> 00:03:32,400 Speaker 4: huge home. Anyways, I spoke with a neighbor who says 75 00:03:32,400 --> 00:03:35,560 Speaker 4: he's never since this home is sold, he's never actually 76 00:03:35,600 --> 00:03:39,720 Speaker 4: seen anybody at this home claiming to be the owner. 77 00:03:39,880 --> 00:03:47,680 Speaker 5: The fact who obviously wanted to take control over the 78 00:03:47,760 --> 00:03:55,320 Speaker 5: piece of property is unknown. I have never seen anyone 79 00:03:55,680 --> 00:04:01,720 Speaker 5: visit that house as the owners rather than of owners. 80 00:04:02,200 --> 00:04:04,400 Speaker 4: So you hear them there say phony owners. He says 81 00:04:04,440 --> 00:04:06,720 Speaker 4: that throughout the years, this has been an issue. This 82 00:04:06,760 --> 00:04:09,120 Speaker 4: has been going on since the home was sold. There's 83 00:04:09,160 --> 00:04:12,000 Speaker 4: been different groups of squatters that have gone to this home, 84 00:04:12,360 --> 00:04:14,480 Speaker 4: and he says, every single time they do a pretty 85 00:04:14,480 --> 00:04:17,839 Speaker 4: good job, almost a professional job, of trying to convince 86 00:04:17,880 --> 00:04:20,039 Speaker 4: the neighbors that they're actually supposed to be there. 87 00:04:20,160 --> 00:04:22,960 Speaker 5: No, there were numerous attempts. I would say at least 88 00:04:23,040 --> 00:04:27,880 Speaker 5: three that I'm aware of. And when you would ask people, 89 00:04:28,160 --> 00:04:31,080 Speaker 5: you know, are you going to live here? 90 00:04:31,240 --> 00:04:33,440 Speaker 2: What are you working on this? 91 00:04:33,520 --> 00:04:35,400 Speaker 5: And said no, no, I just bought it, and they 92 00:04:35,440 --> 00:04:38,240 Speaker 5: would immediately and this was sort of a give away. 93 00:04:38,760 --> 00:04:43,839 Speaker 5: Produce some documents that would show that this was purchased 94 00:04:43,880 --> 00:04:48,560 Speaker 5: at the lean sale or for closure sale. And you 95 00:04:48,600 --> 00:04:51,240 Speaker 5: look at those documents and you know they could be 96 00:04:52,560 --> 00:04:58,800 Speaker 5: printed off the internet, faked in an instant. All it 97 00:04:58,880 --> 00:05:02,919 Speaker 5: takes is just a document printed off the internet to 98 00:05:03,000 --> 00:05:07,440 Speaker 5: invent any signature you want. And at that point you 99 00:05:07,480 --> 00:05:09,359 Speaker 5: could show it to the police, you could show it 100 00:05:09,400 --> 00:05:12,520 Speaker 5: to neighbors. You at least have claim. 101 00:05:12,800 --> 00:05:17,200 Speaker 2: Yeah, at least I've heard that that happens sometimes where 102 00:05:17,279 --> 00:05:20,560 Speaker 2: the squatters take over what they think is an abandoned 103 00:05:20,600 --> 00:05:24,400 Speaker 2: house and they do print up their own deed and 104 00:05:24,440 --> 00:05:26,200 Speaker 2: then the police come and the police don't know what 105 00:05:26,279 --> 00:05:29,000 Speaker 2: to do, and to go through court to prove that 106 00:05:29,360 --> 00:05:31,360 Speaker 2: they have a fake deed can take months. 107 00:05:33,520 --> 00:05:36,480 Speaker 4: What's what's really interesting too, is you see how trash 108 00:05:36,560 --> 00:05:38,600 Speaker 4: this property is. I went and spoke with a woman 109 00:05:38,640 --> 00:05:40,920 Speaker 4: who lives just across the street. She didn't want to 110 00:05:40,960 --> 00:05:43,320 Speaker 4: be recorded, but she said she had no idea that 111 00:05:43,320 --> 00:05:44,600 Speaker 4: there was anybody. 112 00:05:44,200 --> 00:05:45,960 Speaker 3: In this home. I mean it is a huge home. 113 00:05:46,000 --> 00:05:47,920 Speaker 4: I would imagine you could kind of run around in there, 114 00:05:48,040 --> 00:05:50,880 Speaker 4: maybe nobody would notice you. But she's like, I never 115 00:05:50,920 --> 00:05:53,719 Speaker 4: saw lights on. I never saw any sign that anybody 116 00:05:53,800 --> 00:05:56,279 Speaker 4: was in that home. But you know, if you look 117 00:05:56,320 --> 00:05:58,880 Speaker 4: out on this, I mean just from the street, and 118 00:05:58,920 --> 00:06:00,520 Speaker 4: this is some of the footage that I took. 119 00:06:00,839 --> 00:06:02,360 Speaker 3: You look out at this big window. 120 00:06:02,400 --> 00:06:04,560 Speaker 4: It looks like it's it's meant to look out towards 121 00:06:04,600 --> 00:06:07,200 Speaker 4: the coast, you know, look out over West LA. 122 00:06:07,760 --> 00:06:09,080 Speaker 3: It's covered in graffiti. 123 00:06:09,560 --> 00:06:11,880 Speaker 1: So it really is a master rich team. 124 00:06:11,960 --> 00:06:16,400 Speaker 4: Somebody would hold average people. And what's really weird too, guys, 125 00:06:16,440 --> 00:06:19,159 Speaker 4: they bought this home in twenty thirteen for about seven 126 00:06:19,200 --> 00:06:22,400 Speaker 4: million dollars as it sits right now, even in its condition, 127 00:06:22,480 --> 00:06:25,360 Speaker 4: it's estimated to be worth more than ten million dollars. 128 00:06:25,360 --> 00:06:29,520 Speaker 4: So it's really just kind of shocking that the person 129 00:06:29,640 --> 00:06:31,839 Speaker 4: who owns this property is holding onto it. 130 00:06:31,880 --> 00:06:33,560 Speaker 2: Well, you know, we I used to live up in 131 00:06:33,600 --> 00:06:39,800 Speaker 2: the hills off Benedict Canyon, and there's a there's some 132 00:06:39,920 --> 00:06:44,400 Speaker 2: mansions scattered about that are are just owned by sketchy people, 133 00:06:44,560 --> 00:06:47,800 Speaker 2: often foreigners. Often it seems to be like a money 134 00:06:47,839 --> 00:06:52,560 Speaker 2: laundering situation. There was there was one home that eight 135 00:06:52,640 --> 00:06:55,880 Speaker 2: years it was being constructed. I used to drive by 136 00:06:55,960 --> 00:06:58,960 Speaker 2: it every day taking my kids to school, and we 137 00:06:59,279 --> 00:07:02,479 Speaker 2: laughed about it. From like kindergarten to eighth grade, that 138 00:07:02,680 --> 00:07:05,359 Speaker 2: same home, always in a state of construction, always the 139 00:07:05,360 --> 00:07:09,080 Speaker 2: windows boarded up. And you know, I would look online 140 00:07:09,120 --> 00:07:12,160 Speaker 2: out of curiosity, well who owns this? And it's often 141 00:07:12,200 --> 00:07:15,800 Speaker 2: it's just just foreigners hiding money out here. You know, 142 00:07:16,640 --> 00:07:20,120 Speaker 2: Beverly Hills, bel Air, Hollywood Hills, that's all magic to 143 00:07:20,200 --> 00:07:22,560 Speaker 2: the rest of the world. And so people buy up 144 00:07:22,640 --> 00:07:25,640 Speaker 2: properties because it's really cool when they have an excess 145 00:07:25,680 --> 00:07:29,800 Speaker 2: amount of money, and often they're just they're just parking 146 00:07:29,840 --> 00:07:34,200 Speaker 2: the money. They don't really care about the property. There's 147 00:07:34,200 --> 00:07:34,760 Speaker 2: more than that. 148 00:07:34,880 --> 00:07:35,360 Speaker 1: People know. 149 00:07:37,160 --> 00:07:37,320 Speaker 5: Well. 150 00:07:37,320 --> 00:07:39,320 Speaker 4: And one thing with this is I guess yesterday a 151 00:07:39,320 --> 00:07:42,240 Speaker 4: property manager I should mention this a property manager. 152 00:07:42,520 --> 00:07:45,360 Speaker 3: A property manager visited the guy that I spoke with. 153 00:07:45,440 --> 00:07:48,680 Speaker 4: She was checking on nearby people after the police response, 154 00:07:49,000 --> 00:07:50,760 Speaker 4: and he had asked her, Hey, I really want to 155 00:07:50,800 --> 00:07:53,440 Speaker 4: know who owns this property. Can you tell me who 156 00:07:53,480 --> 00:07:56,680 Speaker 4: owns it?

The death 227 00:11:02,400 --> 00:11:06,680 Speaker 1: toll is at least fifty five, it has wiped out 228 00:11:06,720 --> 00:11:12,240 Speaker 1: this historic town of Lahaina, just everything leveled. They are 229 00:11:12,280 --> 00:11:16,720 Speaker 1: also talking about it being probably the worst natural disaster 230 00:11:16,840 --> 00:11:19,880 Speaker 1: in the history of that state. There was a tsunami 231 00:11:19,920 --> 00:11:23,680 Speaker 1: that killed sixty one people in nineteen sixty and back 232 00:11:23,720 --> 00:11:26,439 Speaker 1: in nineteen forty six, they believe more than one hundred 233 00:11:26,440 --> 00:11:31,160 Speaker 1: and fifty people were killed by another tsunami. What this 234 00:11:31,360 --> 00:11:34,000 Speaker 1: led to And if you've been to Hawaii and I 235 00:11:34,080 --> 00:11:36,800 Speaker 1: remember this when I was in the Waikiki on one 236 00:11:36,800 --> 00:11:42,439 Speaker 1: of my visits, Haulu there's a siren system and the 237 00:11:42,440 --> 00:11:46,560 Speaker 1: sirens are positioned. There's four hundred sirens positioned across the 238 00:11:46,559 --> 00:11:53,040 Speaker 1: island to alert people to various natural disasters, but most 239 00:11:53,080 --> 00:11:57,800 Speaker 1: reports are that they were not exactly activated. The problem 240 00:11:57,960 --> 00:12:03,480 Speaker 1: was these winds kicked up so fast, so strong. And 241 00:12:03,559 --> 00:12:06,240 Speaker 1: we know this in California, what was the town john 242 00:12:06,320 --> 00:12:09,040 Speaker 1: Up and not Paradise, but even before that, there was 243 00:12:09,080 --> 00:12:12,160 Speaker 1: a larger town where the winds were so immense it 244 00:12:12,240 --> 00:12:14,880 Speaker 1: just blew in like a hurricane with the fire and 245 00:12:15,040 --> 00:12:19,200 Speaker 1: people just had no chance to evacuate in very little warning. 246 00:12:19,320 --> 00:12:22,880 Speaker 2: Well, the winds they had in Hawaii were very similar 247 00:12:22,880 --> 00:12:25,160 Speaker 2: to the Santa Ana wind effect that we have here. 248 00:12:26,640 --> 00:12:28,680 Speaker 1: Yes, so at least more of the harsher winds. 249 00:12:28,760 --> 00:12:28,960 Speaker 2: Right. 250 00:12:30,200 --> 00:12:33,080 Speaker 1: We've had communities in California that have had these big, 251 00:12:33,120 --> 00:12:34,679 Speaker 1: gusty fire. 252 00:12:34,720 --> 00:12:39,000 Speaker 2: But the winds get compressed and they're pushed down a 253 00:12:39,040 --> 00:12:42,880 Speaker 2: mountain slope and the compression of the air causes the 254 00:12:42,920 --> 00:12:49,840 Speaker 2: air to heat up, and the differential between high pressure 255 00:12:49,880 --> 00:12:52,280 Speaker 2: and low pressure create the wind to begin with. And 256 00:12:52,320 --> 00:12:55,720 Speaker 2: then when they're jammed through a narrow opening and they're 257 00:12:55,760 --> 00:12:59,439 Speaker 2: going downward at a rapid rate, that creates an intensely 258 00:12:59,520 --> 00:13:02,000 Speaker 2: hot wind which feeds the fire. 259 00:13:03,320 --> 00:13:05,880 Speaker 1: Yeah, they had a dry summer, they had strong winds 260 00:13:05,880 --> 00:13:09,160 Speaker 1: from that passing hurricane, and that's why at least three 261 00:13:09,200 --> 00:13:12,880 Speaker 1: wildfires erupted on Maui this week and a lot of 262 00:13:12,880 --> 00:13:16,560 Speaker 1: the brush just burnt up very quickly. But obviously the 263 00:13:16,559 --> 00:13:19,120 Speaker 1: biggest damage came when it swept through this village of Lahina, 264 00:13:19,600 --> 00:13:22,400 Speaker 1: and just absolutely it's going to have to be rebuilt 265 00:13:23,000 --> 00:13:26,520 Speaker 1: from the ground up before anything can be done. Of course, 266 00:13:26,920 --> 00:13:29,000 Speaker 1: as you would expect, after days go by, there are 267 00:13:29,040 --> 00:13:31,840 Speaker 1: people saying we should have known about this. There have 268 00:13:31,840 --> 00:13:33,600 Speaker 1: been warnings that were issued even as long as ten 269 00:13:33,679 --> 00:13:36,840 Speaker 1: years ago about the build up of the really dry brush, 270 00:13:37,000 --> 00:13:38,920 Speaker 1: and what would happen if we had the right conditions 271 00:13:38,920 --> 00:13:43,560 Speaker 1: that could sweep through here? Well, why did we do 272 00:13:43,640 --> 00:13:44,640 Speaker 1: more to prepare for this? 273 00:13:44,800 --> 00:13:48,320 Speaker 2: The sirens didn't go off, so nobody set, uh, turn 274 00:13:48,360 --> 00:13:48,960 Speaker 2: the sirens on? 275 00:13:49,120 --> 00:13:53,000 Speaker 1: Yeah, they said, they said phone alerts, but well there 276 00:13:53,120 --> 00:13:56,040 Speaker 1: was power and cell phone adages. Yeah there was, right, 277 00:13:56,160 --> 00:13:58,200 Speaker 1: So you're sending alerts. 278 00:13:58,280 --> 00:14:01,280 Speaker 2: This is why you need AM radio exactly right, what 279 00:14:01,280 --> 00:14:02,040 Speaker 2: we warn't about. 280 00:14:02,679 --> 00:14:04,199 Speaker 1: Everyone says, well, I can get a text to tell 281 00:14:04,200 --> 00:14:06,200 Speaker 1: me what to do. No, it could knock out your 282 00:14:06,200 --> 00:14:06,800 Speaker 1: cell lines. 283 00:14:07,000 --> 00:14:10,600 Speaker 2: Yeah, so they were sending messages to dead cell phones 284 00:14:11,720 --> 00:14:14,760 Speaker 2: that were not connected to anything. All you have is 285 00:14:14,800 --> 00:14:17,680 Speaker 2: a brick in your hand there, right, But you have 286 00:14:17,760 --> 00:14:21,080 Speaker 2: a radio, like a battery operated radio. 287 00:14:21,320 --> 00:14:24,400 Speaker 1: That's right, battery operated, good old AM will come through. 288 00:14:24,600 --> 00:14:28,600 Speaker 2: You survive. If the electricity goes out, you survive. If 289 00:14:28,600 --> 00:14:32,760 Speaker 2: the cell towers go out. You just get a battery 290 00:14:32,840 --> 00:14:35,440 Speaker 2: operated radio and you tune into US. 291 00:14:36,440 --> 00:14:40,400 Speaker 1: You can't beat that will be their nuclear fire, earthquake. 292 00:14:40,560 --> 00:14:44,680 Speaker 2: We have a siren, right, our siren works. I was, yeah, 293 00:14:44,680 --> 00:14:47,080 Speaker 2: I was in Wakiki. It was a long time ago. 294 00:14:47,400 --> 00:14:50,080 Speaker 2: But the tsunami thing went off and we all froze, 295 00:14:50,120 --> 00:14:51,120 Speaker 2: but they do drills. 296 00:14:51,160 --> 00:14:51,520 Speaker 1: I don't know. 297 00:14:51,600 --> 00:14:56,480 Speaker 2: I listen to a bragg that they have the largest 298 00:14:56,640 --> 00:15:01,440 Speaker 2: integrated outdoor all hazard public safety warning system in the world. 299 00:15:01,680 --> 00:15:06,000 Speaker 2: You got that, the largest integrated outdoor all hazard public say, 300 00:15:06,120 --> 00:15:12,120 Speaker 2: four hundred sirens supposed to alert you to fire, tsunami, whatever, 301 00:15:12,240 --> 00:15:20,200 Speaker 2: right incoming attack, right and nothing, there was nothing. 302 00:15:21,960 --> 00:15:25,120 Speaker 1: They're still trying to figure out the cause. Obviously they 303 00:15:25,120 --> 00:15:28,200 Speaker 1: have to get through fighting the fires first and trying 304 00:15:28,200 --> 00:15:31,200 Speaker 1: to help people before they do a big examination on 305 00:15:31,240 --> 00:15:35,240 Speaker 1: the cause of these fires. A couple of things though, 306 00:15:35,760 --> 00:15:38,840 Speaker 1: came up, and of course it's the old statistic eighty 307 00:15:38,880 --> 00:15:42,280 Speaker 1: five percent of US wildfires are caused by people, eighty 308 00:15:42,320 --> 00:15:45,400 Speaker 1: five percent. So yeah, we're looking at that possibility being 309 00:15:45,400 --> 00:15:47,320 Speaker 1: the most strongest for some of these blazers. 310 00:15:47,360 --> 00:15:52,280 Speaker 2: Not climate change, but people know of badly maintained power lines. 311 00:15:52,920 --> 00:15:56,400 Speaker 1: That's idiots who are arsonists or otherwise careless. 312 00:15:56,600 --> 00:15:56,840 Speaker 2: Right. 313 00:15:58,320 --> 00:16:01,920 Speaker 1: Well, actually, I was in Hawaii two years ago and 314 00:16:02,040 --> 00:16:05,000 Speaker 1: there was a significant number of vagrants, at least in 315 00:16:05,040 --> 00:16:07,120 Speaker 1: the wiki KI section. I saw a bunch of vagrants 316 00:16:07,120 --> 00:16:08,920 Speaker 1: living on the beach, bums just hanging around. 317 00:16:09,440 --> 00:16:11,520 Speaker 2: I know, we're all at the mercy of these people. 318 00:16:11,920 --> 00:16:15,800 Speaker 1: Another possibility is still lightning, and of course the Hawaiian 319 00:16:15,800 --> 00:16:19,400 Speaker 1: Islands have six active volcanoes, including one on Maui, and 320 00:16:19,480 --> 00:16:22,480 Speaker 1: of course they can shoot off some yeah flames, and 321 00:16:23,360 --> 00:16:27,440 Speaker 1: so any of these things are possible. The other hurricane 322 00:16:27,440 --> 00:16:30,880 Speaker 1: that passed through was Dora, hundreds of miles southwest of 323 00:16:30,880 --> 00:16:33,120 Speaker 1: the Hawaiian Islands and the Pacific Ocean, and they believe 324 00:16:33,200 --> 00:16:36,640 Speaker 1: that some winds came off of that, in addition to 325 00:16:36,760 --> 00:16:38,080 Speaker 1: just other ripe conditions. 326 00:16:38,560 --> 00:16:40,760 Speaker 2: I read that they found a lot of people trapped 327 00:16:41,560 --> 00:16:45,000 Speaker 2: in their cars because there there's only two roads to 328 00:16:45,000 --> 00:16:47,520 Speaker 2: get out of Lehena. Oh, so they were trying to 329 00:16:47,640 --> 00:16:51,240 Speaker 2: So it's just like Paradise. So people were burned alive 330 00:16:51,400 --> 00:16:52,480 Speaker 2: inside their cars. 331 00:16:52,880 --> 00:16:55,040 Speaker 1: Oh yeah, that's what's up in the town of Paradise, right. 332 00:16:55,160 --> 00:16:57,800 Speaker 2: Even if the sirens go off and everybody jams the 333 00:16:57,880 --> 00:17:00,480 Speaker 2: roads at the same time, then you're stuff and here 334 00:17:00,520 --> 00:17:03,720 Speaker 2: comes the wall of full flames and you're cooked. 335 00:17:03,840 --> 00:17:06,120 Speaker 1: Literally, you're literally cooked. 336 00:17:06,520 --> 00:17:09,320 Speaker 2: So you know, it's just one of those places that 337 00:17:09,680 --> 00:17:12,760 Speaker 2: is tough to live in when you only have two exits. 338 00:17:13,359 --> 00:17:15,879 Speaker 1: The only good news is they've probably canceled most of 339 00:17:15,880 --> 00:17:18,440 Speaker 1: the alerts is the winds are slowly dying down, so 340 00:17:18,560 --> 00:17:21,520 Speaker 1: probably most of the worst of the danger has passed. 341 00:17:22,040 --> 00:17:25,400 Speaker 6: You're listening to John and Ken on demand from KFI 342 00:17:25,640 --> 00:17:27,240 Speaker 6: Am six forty right. 343 00:17:27,520 --> 00:17:30,320 Speaker 1: Three o'clock hour is coming fast well, of course, have 344 00:17:30,359 --> 00:17:32,840 Speaker 1: the moistline calls for you two rounds of them.

No, 362 00:18:24,359 --> 00:18:26,760 Speaker 1: I don't want to hear about it. Let's sorry about 363 00:18:26,760 --> 00:18:29,520 Speaker 1: the poor people in California. A couple of stories that 364 00:18:29,640 --> 00:18:33,920 Speaker 1: popped up. Apparently only sixteen percent of Californians can afford 365 00:18:33,920 --> 00:18:36,679 Speaker 1: to buy a home. You need two hundred and eight 366 00:18:36,760 --> 00:18:39,359 Speaker 1: thousand dollars in income to qualify for a thirty year loan. 367 00:18:39,440 --> 00:18:43,280 Speaker 2: Isn't that stunning? You have to be two hundred thousand dollars. 368 00:18:43,600 --> 00:18:46,000 Speaker 1: But I thought paper are leaving California. Shouldn't that make 369 00:18:46,000 --> 00:18:46,960 Speaker 1: the inventory better? 370 00:18:47,800 --> 00:18:51,320 Speaker 2: I guess not enough for leaving. We need more. Wow, 371 00:18:52,520 --> 00:18:55,080 Speaker 2: you know there's no way out of this. I guess 372 00:18:55,280 --> 00:18:56,880 Speaker 2: this is just the way life's going to be here. 373 00:18:57,119 --> 00:18:59,600 Speaker 1: And twenty five percent of the state is in poverty, right, 374 00:19:00,080 --> 00:19:02,840 Speaker 1: can't get close? No, Well, they're even buying a home. 375 00:19:02,880 --> 00:19:06,040 Speaker 1: But there's even some people above poverty in the middle ground. 376 00:19:06,160 --> 00:19:07,720 Speaker 1: They can't afford it either. I mean, two hudred and 377 00:19:07,720 --> 00:19:10,200 Speaker 1: eight thousand dollars an income is a pretty good salary, 378 00:19:10,240 --> 00:19:11,520 Speaker 1: even for so cal Well, if. 379 00:19:11,400 --> 00:19:15,320 Speaker 2: You took out the millions of illegal immigrants, you'd have 380 00:19:15,400 --> 00:19:17,960 Speaker 2: a lot of housing stock, or at least land to 381 00:19:18,000 --> 00:19:19,600 Speaker 2: build housing stock available. 382 00:19:20,760 --> 00:19:22,879 Speaker 1: Right, A lot of people rent did take them out too? 383 00:19:23,000 --> 00:19:26,399 Speaker 2: Or well no, But what I'm saying is we have 384 00:19:26,560 --> 00:19:29,720 Speaker 2: so many poor people, a lot of them are here illegally. 385 00:19:30,280 --> 00:19:33,600 Speaker 2: That has driven up the price of real estate because 386 00:19:33,600 --> 00:19:35,800 Speaker 2: they're not supposed to be here. Well, how did they 387 00:19:35,840 --> 00:19:38,320 Speaker 2: think of think of, Well, they don't have a house, 388 00:19:38,600 --> 00:19:42,960 Speaker 2: but they're living in something that takes up space on land, right. 389 00:19:42,840 --> 00:19:44,399 Speaker 1: Would anybody want to buy that? 390 00:19:44,560 --> 00:19:50,760 Speaker 2: Or well, no, you build those the neighborhoods were not centrification. Yes, gentrification, 391 00:19:51,080 --> 00:19:56,040 Speaker 2: You build those ugly neighborhoods and you build nice neighborhoods 392 00:19:56,080 --> 00:19:58,520 Speaker 2: for all the people who. 393 00:19:57,920 --> 00:20:02,600 Speaker 1: Can, who you know, go to work. They're also saying 394 00:20:02,600 --> 00:20:05,120 Speaker 1: that a lot of people are not selling because they 395 00:20:05,200 --> 00:20:08,400 Speaker 1: got their low interest rates when back when we were 396 00:20:08,480 --> 00:20:11,399 Speaker 1: at the two three percent level, and they don't want 397 00:20:11,440 --> 00:20:13,320 Speaker 1: to start over, and if they have to take a 398 00:20:13,320 --> 00:20:14,760 Speaker 1: new loan to buy a new house, it's not going 399 00:20:14,800 --> 00:20:15,600 Speaker 1: to be that lower rate. 400 00:20:15,680 --> 00:20:18,160 Speaker 2: So they're just saying, I'm hanging on. I'm in that boat. 401 00:20:19,200 --> 00:20:21,960 Speaker 2: We talked for a few years about selling and down sizing. 402 00:20:22,000 --> 00:20:24,919 Speaker 2: Since the kids have mostly grown up, I gotta but 403 00:20:25,000 --> 00:20:27,359 Speaker 2: I got a two and three quarter percent mortgage. 404 00:20:28,400 --> 00:20:30,280 Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm gonna trade that in for that low too. 405 00:20:30,359 --> 00:20:31,840 Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm gonna trade that in for a seven and 406 00:20:31,840 --> 00:20:34,480 Speaker 2: a half percent mortgage. And as it turns out, you 407 00:20:34,520 --> 00:20:37,000 Speaker 2: could buy a less expensive house than the one you're in. 408 00:20:37,320 --> 00:20:39,440 Speaker 2: But now you got to pay the new property tax 409 00:20:39,520 --> 00:20:42,199 Speaker 2: number for twenty twenty three at the new house. So 410 00:20:42,320 --> 00:20:44,280 Speaker 2: you do all the math. Up, you're not saving much 411 00:20:44,320 --> 00:20:46,399 Speaker 2: even if you're you're you're chopping a lot of square 412 00:20:46,440 --> 00:20:47,119 Speaker 2: footage out of. 413 00:20:47,119 --> 00:20:49,560 Speaker 1: Your I think that keeps a lot of people in 414 00:20:49,600 --> 00:20:52,399 Speaker 1: their homes in California, right, Those those are the decisions, 415 00:20:52,880 --> 00:20:57,040 Speaker 1: the financial realities. Meanwhile, we find out that a couple 416 00:20:57,119 --> 00:21:04,040 Speaker 1: of politicians from California travel to Kenya to study basic income. 417 00:21:04,359 --> 00:21:06,119 Speaker 1: As I mentioned, this is all about the poor people. 418 00:21:07,840 --> 00:21:10,520 Speaker 1: My favorite, though, it comes from Michael Tubbs, who's an 419 00:21:10,560 --> 00:21:13,720 Speaker 1: advisor to Gavin Newsom. Do you remember him. He was 420 00:21:13,760 --> 00:21:17,560 Speaker 1: the mayor of Stockton, where he started a guaranteed income program. Yeah, 421 00:21:17,920 --> 00:21:20,720 Speaker 1: and here's his quote. See if you agree, Oh, poverty 422 00:21:20,760 --> 00:21:23,240 Speaker 1: is not a reflection of intellect or aptitude or potential. 423 00:21:23,520 --> 00:21:25,800 Speaker 1: It's a failure on a policy and systems level. 424 00:21:26,480 --> 00:21:30,240 Speaker 2: What an idiot see that is the socialist woll mind? 425 00:21:30,359 --> 00:21:31,840 Speaker 1: That's right, No, responsibility. 426 00:21:32,000 --> 00:21:37,520 Speaker 2: Really no reflection on intelligence and aptitude, your education, your skills. 427 00:21:37,680 --> 00:21:39,960 Speaker 1: Of course, it is, it absolutely is. 428 00:21:41,520 --> 00:21:45,040 Speaker 2: You sit in a room of like one hundred people 429 00:21:45,280 --> 00:21:48,959 Speaker 2: who are making big six figure salaries in various professions, 430 00:21:49,200 --> 00:21:52,840 Speaker 2: sit in a room of people who are making you know, 431 00:21:53,160 --> 00:21:55,560 Speaker 2: twenty thousand dollars a year. You tell me if you 432 00:21:55,600 --> 00:22:00,640 Speaker 2: don't see an intellectual difference, a skills difference. Really, boy, 433 00:22:00,680 --> 00:22:03,760 Speaker 2: that'd be a great show, you know, I'd love to 434 00:22:04,240 --> 00:22:06,840 Speaker 2: do a show with this guy. Tubs. 435 00:22:07,040 --> 00:22:09,560 Speaker 1: Okay, Mitchell, that went. We just threw her on the dumpster. 436 00:22:09,640 --> 00:22:12,840 Speaker 1: Left Holly Mitchell as State Assembly member of Matt Haney. 437 00:22:12,840 --> 00:22:15,640 Speaker 1: Those are the two that went to Kenya because they 438 00:22:15,680 --> 00:22:19,760 Speaker 1: have one of the world's largest basic guaranteed income. The 439 00:22:19,920 --> 00:22:22,160 Speaker 1: twenty five dollars a month. I bet you, I bet 440 00:22:22,160 --> 00:22:23,480 Speaker 1: you was a long way and Kenya. I guess you 441 00:22:23,480 --> 00:22:23,679 Speaker 1: know what. 442 00:22:23,760 --> 00:22:27,040 Speaker 2: I went to Kenya. I went to Dairobi years ago, 443 00:22:27,400 --> 00:22:31,440 Speaker 2: and I didn't see five hundred disgusting RVs lining the streets. 444 00:22:32,960 --> 00:22:35,440 Speaker 2: In fact, I saw a lot of people working really 445 00:22:35,480 --> 00:22:38,800 Speaker 2: hard in Kenya, trudging of the factories every day, and 446 00:22:39,200 --> 00:22:42,800 Speaker 2: women carrying large baskets on their heads because they were 447 00:22:43,200 --> 00:22:48,000 Speaker 2: involved in selling goods, whether it was blankets and textiles 448 00:22:48,080 --> 00:22:51,640 Speaker 2: or fruit or whatever, and everybody was working hard there. 449 00:22:52,000 --> 00:22:55,920 Speaker 2: And you know, you go to Holly Mitchell's district and 450 00:22:56,000 --> 00:22:59,480 Speaker 2: you see people injecting meth. Harold, that's what the r 451 00:22:59,560 --> 00:23:01,840 Speaker 2: vents know, that's where they are. Yeah, they are, they 452 00:23:01,880 --> 00:23:04,159 Speaker 2: did last week. But I got hundreds of RVs in 453 00:23:04,200 --> 00:23:07,040 Speaker 2: that area in East Gardina. So does she does she 454 00:23:07,160 --> 00:23:09,840 Speaker 2: notice that the people in Africa largely are trying to work. 455 00:23:10,480 --> 00:23:13,320 Speaker 2: Maybe they can't earn much money because the the you know, 456 00:23:13,359 --> 00:23:16,760 Speaker 2: the economy is not great in terms of high paying jobs. 457 00:23:16,840 --> 00:23:18,960 Speaker 2: But they're working. They're doing what they can, They're working 458 00:23:19,040 --> 00:23:19,920 Speaker 2: long hours. 459 00:23:20,160 --> 00:23:20,440 Speaker 1: There. 460 00:23:20,480 --> 00:23:22,560 Speaker 2: There's a lot of physical labor, a lot of sweating. 461 00:23:23,280 --> 00:23:26,000 Speaker 2: Difference between that and walking down r V Alley. 462 00:23:26,720 --> 00:23:28,680 Speaker 1: Hey, you want to hear a Kamala Harris quote that 463 00:23:28,760 --> 00:23:31,159 Speaker 1: came out of the story or did you come crystal 464 00:23:31,200 --> 00:23:33,400 Speaker 1: clear to me on this trip, is that poverty is poverty, 465 00:23:33,440 --> 00:23:34,600 Speaker 1: regardless of the continent. 466 00:23:34,760 --> 00:23:39,480 Speaker 2: Thanks Holly, But that's that's the emptiest statement in the world. 467 00:23:40,160 --> 00:23:41,320 Speaker 2: Poverty is poverty. 468 00:23:41,640 --> 00:23:44,600 Speaker 1: Poverty is poverty. So why should it be again with 469 00:23:44,680 --> 00:23:50,240 Speaker 1: the repetition now the last story dealing somewhat with the poor, 470 00:23:50,320 --> 00:23:53,320 Speaker 1: but not exactly. Believe it or not, there may be 471 00:23:53,359 --> 00:23:56,800 Speaker 1: a bill in Sacramento, and apparently they've talked about it 472 00:23:56,800 --> 00:23:58,520 Speaker 1: for years, but now there's gonna be a big push 473 00:23:58,520 --> 00:24:00,840 Speaker 1: because John, in case you're not aware, this has been 474 00:24:00,920 --> 00:24:06,480 Speaker 1: the summer of labor unrest in California with the striking writers, actors, 475 00:24:06,640 --> 00:24:09,480 Speaker 1: hotel workers, and then the city workers who walked off 476 00:24:09,480 --> 00:24:10,680 Speaker 1: and didn't pick up your garbage. 477 00:24:10,880 --> 00:24:14,119 Speaker 2: When I see striking writers, and we have thousands of 478 00:24:14,160 --> 00:24:16,720 Speaker 2: them here in Burbank, right future dribe up and down 479 00:24:16,840 --> 00:24:19,960 Speaker 2: the bull rights, I don't see them, Yeah, yeah, okay, don't. 480 00:24:20,000 --> 00:24:21,920 Speaker 2: I don't think in terms of unrest. 481 00:24:23,119 --> 00:24:24,080 Speaker 1: They don't seem to be. 482 00:24:24,200 --> 00:24:27,240 Speaker 2: Really I see these wild and these older ponche guys. 483 00:24:29,160 --> 00:24:31,960 Speaker 2: They don't look all like rioters to be. I'm I'm 484 00:24:32,000 --> 00:24:33,240 Speaker 2: not picking up on the unrest. 485 00:24:33,800 --> 00:24:36,600 Speaker 1: Well, let's just float this idea past you and whoever 486 00:24:36,640 --> 00:24:39,879 Speaker 1: else is listening. The Democrats and Sacramento are probably going 487 00:24:39,960 --> 00:24:45,720 Speaker 1: to draft a bill that pays striking workers unemployment money. Yeah, 488 00:24:45,920 --> 00:24:47,840 Speaker 1: a little strange. I mean, normally, what you're doing, if 489 00:24:47,840 --> 00:24:50,240 Speaker 1: you're any union, you get strike benefits from the union. 490 00:24:50,680 --> 00:24:54,360 Speaker 1: But they want to reach into the pot of unemployment 491 00:24:54,440 --> 00:24:56,960 Speaker 1: money and hand it out to striking workers. 492 00:24:56,840 --> 00:24:59,080 Speaker 2: They chosen to stop working, and of. 493 00:24:58,960 --> 00:25:02,680 Speaker 1: Course the Cow and Your Labor Federation, whose leader, former 494 00:25:02,680 --> 00:25:06,679 Speaker 1: Assembly member Lorena Gonzales, is spearheading this. They tried to 495 00:25:06,720 --> 00:25:08,880 Speaker 1: pass this in twenty nineteen but it didn't get through. 496 00:25:09,680 --> 00:25:14,399 Speaker 1: So but look, I am sympathetic to the writers. I 497 00:25:14,400 --> 00:25:16,520 Speaker 1: think they're getting screwed over by the studios. But you're 498 00:25:16,920 --> 00:25:17,639 Speaker 1: paunchy old men. 499 00:25:18,520 --> 00:25:22,240 Speaker 2: I've you're choosing not to work. You can't choose not 500 00:25:22,320 --> 00:25:25,520 Speaker 2: to work and then demand tax money. 501 00:25:25,760 --> 00:25:29,439 Speaker 1: Unemployment money because it's unemployment goes to people who are 502 00:25:29,480 --> 00:25:33,240 Speaker 1: laid off, right, not people who quit their jobs. Or 503 00:25:33,280 --> 00:25:35,199 Speaker 1: in this case, you step away from there. 504 00:25:35,200 --> 00:25:39,960 Speaker 2: Do you quit your job, you can't get unemployment you cannot, no, no, 505 00:25:40,040 --> 00:25:41,959 Speaker 2: you have to be well. Then this is another like 506 00:25:42,000 --> 00:25:45,800 Speaker 2: backdoor universal basic income plan. Because if you're going to 507 00:25:45,840 --> 00:25:47,720 Speaker 2: do it so sympathy, I mean, the unions are so 508 00:25:47,800 --> 00:25:50,760 Speaker 2: powerful and Sacramento it's by their hand that they're thinking 509 00:25:50,800 --> 00:25:53,280 Speaker 2: about this, probably saying if you don't do this, I 510 00:25:53,320 --> 00:25:57,160 Speaker 2: will donate to your campaign this year. But that could 511 00:25:57,320 --> 00:26:01,480 Speaker 2: significantly raise the unemployment insurance money that they tab on 512 00:26:01,560 --> 00:26:04,399 Speaker 2: employers and workers. You pay into the fund too, So 513 00:26:04,960 --> 00:26:07,680 Speaker 2: if they have to come up with millions or tens 514 00:26:07,720 --> 00:26:12,240 Speaker 2: of millions, workers pay a little bit into this fun correct. 515 00:26:11,960 --> 00:26:16,960 Speaker 1: Yes we do, yes, Oh then definitely no. I tacked 516 00:26:16,960 --> 00:26:22,040 Speaker 1: that most of it goes on employers. But all right, 517 00:26:22,240 --> 00:26:25,080 Speaker 1: we got more coming up than you know what. Everybody's 518 00:26:25,080 --> 00:26:26,760 Speaker 1: got to take another job is what they got to do. 519 00:26:27,320 --> 00:26:29,360 Speaker 1: I mean, if you're on strike, then you know it's 520 00:26:29,520 --> 00:26:31,400 Speaker 1: it's even. Then how do you march in the streets. 521 00:26:31,880 --> 00:26:33,439 Speaker 2: Well, the marching isn't doing anything. 522 00:26:35,320 --> 00:26:38,320 Speaker 1: They've resumed talks now what I heard today, the writers 523 00:26:38,320 --> 00:26:39,520 Speaker 1: and the actors and the. 524 00:26:39,840 --> 00:26:42,280 Speaker 2: If they resume talks, it doesn't come from the marching. 525 00:26:42,640 --> 00:26:45,680 Speaker 2: It comes from the studios money. 526 00:26:45,840 --> 00:26:48,439 Speaker 1: The studio is set up with losing money. All right, 527 00:26:48,480 --> 00:26:51,000 Speaker 1: we'll be talking about that Orange County judge who has 528 00:26:51,040 --> 00:26:53,560 Speaker 1: now been formally charged with the shooting his wife to death. 529 00:26:54,400 --> 00:26:56,159 Speaker 1: Some crazy developments coming up. 530 00:26:56,240 --> 00:26:59,720 Speaker 6: After three, you're listening to John and Ken on demand 531 00:27:00,119 --> 00:27:01,960 Speaker 6: from KFI A six forty. 532 00:27:02,520 --> 00:27:04,679 Speaker 2: We're on the radio one till four after four o'clock 533 00:27:04,680 --> 00:27:07,800 Speaker 2: the iHeart app as the Johnny Ken on Demand podcast. 534 00:27:07,880 --> 00:27:09,680 Speaker 2: Listen to what you missed, all right, in. 535 00:27:09,560 --> 00:27:12,320 Speaker 1: The limelight this afternoons at Orange County Superior Court Judge 536 00:27:12,359 --> 00:27:15,440 Speaker 1: Jeffrey Ferguson, who has now been formally charged with killing 537 00:27:15,480 --> 00:27:18,719 Speaker 1: his wife, shooting her to death. Apparently they had an 538 00:27:18,840 --> 00:27:21,480 Speaker 1: argument and when they got back to the house, she 539 00:27:21,640 --> 00:27:23,800 Speaker 1: said something to the effect of, well, why don't you 540 00:27:23,800 --> 00:27:25,280 Speaker 1: pull a real gun out if you're going to pretend 541 00:27:25,320 --> 00:27:28,199 Speaker 1: to shoot me? And he did actually have one in 542 00:27:28,240 --> 00:27:31,160 Speaker 1: his ankle holster, and they went off. 543 00:27:31,480 --> 00:27:34,840 Speaker 2: She's dead, that's right. Never suggests that to somebody who's 544 00:27:34,920 --> 00:27:36,520 Speaker 2: drunk and actually has a gun on him. 545 00:27:37,080 --> 00:27:40,200 Speaker 1: And then he actually tested texted coworkers and said, I 546 00:27:40,280 --> 00:27:44,080 Speaker 1: won't be in tomorrow. I shot my wife. Weird anyway. 547 00:27:44,080 --> 00:27:46,720 Speaker 1: Corvin Carson is covering the story. He'll be on after 548 00:27:46,760 --> 00:27:50,040 Speaker 1: the News at three o'clock, followed by the moist line 549 00:27:50,080 --> 00:27:52,199 Speaker 1: on the John and Ken Show. A story that got 550 00:27:52,200 --> 00:27:54,080 Speaker 1: a lot of attention this afternoon, but really for what 551 00:27:54,119 --> 00:27:57,280 Speaker 1: it means. The Attorney General of the United States, Merrick Garland, 552 00:27:57,760 --> 00:28:01,160 Speaker 1: is appointing a special counsel in the Hunt Biden investigation. 553 00:28:01,800 --> 00:28:03,440 Speaker 1: The special council is a man by the name of 554 00:28:03,560 --> 00:28:06,560 Speaker 1: David Weiss, who's the US Attorney in Delaware. Who had 555 00:28:06,600 --> 00:28:09,119 Speaker 1: already been investigating Hunter Biden, and they came up with 556 00:28:09,200 --> 00:28:12,159 Speaker 1: the plea deal that fell apart. So I don't know 557 00:28:12,200 --> 00:28:14,719 Speaker 1: if this is worth anything, but apparently he asked for 558 00:28:14,840 --> 00:28:17,080 Speaker 1: and he wanted to have the title of special counsel. 559 00:28:17,280 --> 00:28:19,920 Speaker 1: I guess to do whatever he has to do because 560 00:28:19,960 --> 00:28:22,800 Speaker 1: the the plea deal now apparently has completely fallen apart. 561 00:28:22,880 --> 00:28:25,159 Speaker 1: It went before a judge, and we told you, the 562 00:28:25,200 --> 00:28:27,680 Speaker 1: defense was like, well we thought this was immunity from everything. 563 00:28:28,880 --> 00:28:31,920 Speaker 1: That's not really what it says. So yeah, well the 564 00:28:32,040 --> 00:28:33,040 Speaker 1: tax and gun charges. 565 00:28:33,119 --> 00:28:36,440 Speaker 2: Yeah, that that that DA is questionable because he he's 566 00:28:36,480 --> 00:28:40,120 Speaker 2: the one who agreed to the deal. He's a US attorney. Yeah, 567 00:28:40,120 --> 00:28:41,920 Speaker 2: he's a US attorney. What did I I call him 568 00:28:41,920 --> 00:28:43,000 Speaker 2: a Yeah, he's the USDA. 569 00:28:43,120 --> 00:28:44,720 Speaker 1: No, David, Yeah, No. 570 00:28:44,800 --> 00:28:46,520 Speaker 2: He was trying to pull a fast one on the 571 00:28:46,640 --> 00:28:50,840 Speaker 2: judge because there was there was a eight There was 572 00:28:50,880 --> 00:28:53,880 Speaker 2: there were two agreements, if I remember there were There 573 00:28:53,920 --> 00:28:57,400 Speaker 2: was the plea agreement, and then there was a secondary 574 00:28:57,440 --> 00:29:03,600 Speaker 2: agreement regarding his probation terms. And in that secondary agreement, 575 00:29:03,640 --> 00:29:06,440 Speaker 2: with which the judge did not have to sign off on, 576 00:29:07,040 --> 00:29:10,160 Speaker 2: it indicated that hunter Biden was not going to be 577 00:29:10,600 --> 00:29:14,880 Speaker 2: further prosecuted for anything. So technically it wasn't in the 578 00:29:14,920 --> 00:29:19,320 Speaker 2: plea agreement, but it was in another agreement. And so 579 00:29:19,400 --> 00:29:23,640 Speaker 2: this US attorney Weiss, he was trying to fool the judge. 580 00:29:24,480 --> 00:29:26,080 Speaker 2: So there's no cup again. 581 00:29:26,120 --> 00:29:28,480 Speaker 1: And Weiss is the one that these whistleblowers were complaining 582 00:29:28,480 --> 00:29:30,480 Speaker 1: about that Basically they were told it was all going 583 00:29:30,520 --> 00:29:31,920 Speaker 1: to be a dead end and they weren't allowed to 584 00:29:31,960 --> 00:29:34,440 Speaker 1: do this and do that, and basically shut off a 585 00:29:34,440 --> 00:29:37,840 Speaker 1: lot of avenues of exploring Hunter Biden's finances. 586 00:29:37,960 --> 00:29:41,080 Speaker 2: I think that this is a political move by the 587 00:29:41,360 --> 00:29:43,320 Speaker 2: Biden White House to make. 588 00:29:43,200 --> 00:29:45,840 Speaker 1: Whatever percentage of Americans are really worried about this story 589 00:29:45,960 --> 00:29:48,360 Speaker 1: just feel like, Oh, we don't worry. We're investigating that. 590 00:29:48,440 --> 00:29:53,840 Speaker 2: Both sides are being investigated. It's not just Biden investigating 591 00:29:54,640 --> 00:29:59,200 Speaker 2: his political opponent. No, he's even having his own son 592 00:29:59,280 --> 00:30:03,240 Speaker 2: investigated because he's a fair man. But you give it 593 00:30:03,280 --> 00:30:06,080 Speaker 2: to the guy who is going to give Hunter Biden 594 00:30:06,600 --> 00:30:09,040 Speaker 2: a free pass just a few weeks ago. 595 00:30:09,200 --> 00:30:10,640 Speaker 1: Oh, he's going to come back and say nothing to 596 00:30:10,680 --> 00:30:13,080 Speaker 1: see here. Of course he is. And I tell you 597 00:30:13,160 --> 00:30:17,120 Speaker 1: every article I read, done by quote. The mainstream media said, oh, 598 00:30:17,160 --> 00:30:19,000 Speaker 1: this is already looked into back in twenty nineteen when 599 00:30:19,040 --> 00:30:21,080 Speaker 1: Trump was president and there's nothing to see. 600 00:30:21,320 --> 00:30:25,160 Speaker 2: Move along, No, well they're lying. There's a lot to 601 00:30:25,200 --> 00:30:26,520 Speaker 2: see here. There's a lot of corruption. 602 00:30:26,680 --> 00:30:28,280 Speaker 1: I'm not so sure, right, I'm not sure sure we 603 00:30:28,360 --> 00:30:29,880 Speaker 1: knew then what we know now on this story. 604 00:30:29,920 --> 00:30:31,840 Speaker 2: We no, we did, We didn't. We didn't know that 605 00:30:32,240 --> 00:30:34,960 Speaker 2: they had. It's twenty million dollars that the Biden family 606 00:30:34,960 --> 00:30:37,920 Speaker 2: took in, twenty million, and a lot of it came 607 00:30:37,960 --> 00:30:41,560 Speaker 2: from oligarchs. And Joe was part of a couple of 608 00:30:41,600 --> 00:30:42,640 Speaker 2: dozen meetings. 609 00:30:43,120 --> 00:30:46,000 Speaker 1: Yeah, and Joe standing by, he was on the phone 610 00:30:46,080 --> 00:30:47,880 Speaker 1: or he called in, he said, hello, how are you 611 00:30:48,120 --> 00:30:50,040 Speaker 1: right here? Yeah, he probably prosecuted. 612 00:30:51,240 --> 00:30:54,560 Speaker 2: Well, he got the prosecutor in Ukraine fired, ragged about it. 613 00:30:54,680 --> 00:30:57,120 Speaker 1: Did you see that picture, that plane picture where Biden's 614 00:30:57,120 --> 00:30:59,800 Speaker 1: standing there on when he was VP. He was headed 615 00:30:59,840 --> 00:31:02,480 Speaker 1: to Ukraine to get that prosecutor fired. And apparently the 616 00:31:02,520 --> 00:31:05,760 Speaker 1: other man in the picture is one of Hunter's business associates. 617 00:31:05,760 --> 00:31:08,000 Speaker 1: So people are like, well, there you go, that's what 618 00:31:08,080 --> 00:31:08,640 Speaker 1: was going on. 619 00:31:09,320 --> 00:31:15,240 Speaker 2: So how can this new Special Council wis if he 620 00:31:15,280 --> 00:31:18,000 Speaker 2: goes if he legitimately goes down the Hunter Biden road, 621 00:31:18,280 --> 00:31:21,440 Speaker 2: it leads to Joe. It has to lead to Joe 622 00:31:23,040 --> 00:31:25,280 Speaker 2: because because that was the product they were selling. They 623 00:31:25,280 --> 00:31:28,520 Speaker 2: were selling Joe's influence. That's how Gonter made the money. 624 00:31:29,400 --> 00:31:31,160 Speaker 2: I don't buy this. I don't believe in it. 625 00:31:32,520 --> 00:31:34,600 Speaker 1: Now we finish out the hour with the fun story 626 00:31:34,640 --> 00:31:36,959 Speaker 1: of the day. I almost thought this was a spoof 627 00:31:37,000 --> 00:31:40,800 Speaker 1: when I first saw it. A supermarket in Austria had 628 00:31:40,840 --> 00:31:43,360 Speaker 1: to close down for three days because they had to 629 00:31:43,400 --> 00:31:49,120 Speaker 1: capture a spider. The spider apparently a banana spider from 630 00:31:49,160 --> 00:31:51,320 Speaker 1: South America, and I guess it comes with the bananas. 631 00:31:51,360 --> 00:31:56,920 Speaker 1: It's actually called the Brazilian wandering spider. And well, it 632 00:31:56,960 --> 00:31:59,560 Speaker 1: can cause problems. But one of the things it can 633 00:31:59,640 --> 00:32:04,520 Speaker 1: do to men give you an erection if it bites you. 634 00:32:04,600 --> 00:32:08,240 Speaker 2: Oh, a lot of men want to capture that spider. 635 00:32:08,600 --> 00:32:13,239 Speaker 1: Hours long erection hours long. Yeah, but it does have 636 00:32:13,280 --> 00:32:16,320 Speaker 1: a deadly bite. It can cause hypothermia, blurred vision, convulsions. 637 00:32:16,320 --> 00:32:18,360 Speaker 2: Why you're taking a risk there, aren't you? 638 00:32:18,400 --> 00:32:19,880 Speaker 1: So you got to be careful wh you reach into 639 00:32:19,920 --> 00:32:25,440 Speaker 1: the banana box. Isn't your banana could grow? Why are 640 00:32:25,440 --> 00:32:26,840 Speaker 1: you putting a spider in your pants? 641 00:32:26,880 --> 00:32:27,040 Speaker 2: Sir? 642 00:32:27,720 --> 00:32:31,520 Speaker 1: No, Apparently this has happened before. Where sometimes these shipments 643 00:32:31,520 --> 00:32:34,080 Speaker 1: come in from South America and one of these spiders 644 00:32:34,120 --> 00:32:36,080 Speaker 1: is hiding in the box, right, Yeah, and he starts 645 00:32:36,160 --> 00:32:37,400 Speaker 1: running around the grocery store. 646 00:32:37,840 --> 00:32:43,080 Speaker 2: Yeah, I'd rather take one of Debra's blue pills. She's 647 00:32:43,160 --> 00:32:45,560 Speaker 2: a good saleswoman, isn't she? Then put a spider in 648 00:32:45,600 --> 00:32:46,120 Speaker 2: my pants? 649 00:32:46,840 --> 00:32:49,880 Speaker 1: Men, if you can hear me, I can help you 650 00:32:49,920 --> 00:32:50,880 Speaker 1: with your problems. 651 00:32:54,520 --> 00:32:58,760 Speaker 2: Are those racy commercials still running?
