1 00:00:00,160 --> 00:00:07,120 Speaker 1: Welcome everybody. I'm looking at the latest snowpack numbers. Good lord, 2 00:00:08,240 --> 00:00:10,880 Speaker 1: one hundred and eighty one percent of normal for the 3 00:00:10,960 --> 00:00:14,560 Speaker 1: date of February twenty seventh, and one hundred and fifty 4 00:00:14,600 --> 00:00:18,600 Speaker 1: six percent of a full season's average. Boy, is this 5 00:00:18,640 --> 00:00:23,079 Speaker 1: the worst forecast that they ever made? Oh, the La 6 00:00:23,239 --> 00:00:25,880 Speaker 1: Nina about four months ago. Yeah, ninety one percent chance 7 00:00:25,960 --> 00:00:29,720 Speaker 1: that we'd have a dryer than normal winter. I think 8 00:00:29,720 --> 00:00:33,479 Speaker 1: this may be the worst, just in the scope of it. 9 00:00:33,520 --> 00:00:38,279 Speaker 1: They missed for so many months by so much. Except remember, 10 00:00:38,800 --> 00:00:41,120 Speaker 1: is it ten years ago now almost they predicted a 11 00:00:41,320 --> 00:00:43,919 Speaker 1: massive alninio they did not happen. Then did happen the 12 00:00:43,920 --> 00:00:47,720 Speaker 1: next year? No? They remember Garcita was out there warning 13 00:00:47,760 --> 00:00:50,400 Speaker 1: people that's we're gonna need to take cover. There's gonna 14 00:00:50,400 --> 00:00:53,239 Speaker 1: be so much water. He flood you. He created a 15 00:00:53,240 --> 00:00:57,280 Speaker 1: whole new and emergency department, right, yeah, right, right, yeah, 16 00:00:57,320 --> 00:00:59,840 Speaker 1: the emergency office to handle what he thought was going 17 00:00:59,880 --> 00:01:02,960 Speaker 1: to be a devastating winter of rain, which did not happen. Right, 18 00:01:02,960 --> 00:01:05,360 Speaker 1: And everybody went to the emergency office and they sat 19 00:01:05,400 --> 00:01:09,120 Speaker 1: there for three months waiting for a storm they took 20 00:01:09,200 --> 00:01:12,680 Speaker 1: They didn't arrive for ten years. Yes, and now this 21 00:01:12,760 --> 00:01:17,679 Speaker 1: year the opposite. They were predicting nothing, continued drought. Whan 22 00:01:17,720 --> 00:01:19,480 Speaker 1: I keep thinking of, is uh, you know we have 23 00:01:19,600 --> 00:01:22,039 Speaker 1: the apocalypse desk. Yeah, and I think one of the 24 00:01:22,040 --> 00:01:24,000 Speaker 1: lines in there is Jerry brand it may not rain 25 00:01:24,120 --> 00:01:26,839 Speaker 1: for decades, it may not rain for hundreds of years, 26 00:01:26,840 --> 00:01:29,400 Speaker 1: it may un rate ever again, something like that. And 27 00:01:29,800 --> 00:01:31,280 Speaker 1: he said, the temperatures we're going to go to one 28 00:01:31,319 --> 00:01:33,840 Speaker 1: hundred and thirty five degrees oh in the valleys right, 29 00:01:33,920 --> 00:01:36,720 Speaker 1: and now we can't get out of the forties in 30 00:01:36,840 --> 00:01:39,960 Speaker 1: burbank here it's it's forty eight and that's the high 31 00:01:40,000 --> 00:01:42,560 Speaker 1: for the day. You ever remember a high temperature being 32 00:01:42,600 --> 00:01:47,160 Speaker 1: forty eight? This is and we're only a few degrees 33 00:01:47,160 --> 00:01:51,480 Speaker 1: off from New York City. This is coast went your 34 00:01:51,520 --> 00:01:53,680 Speaker 1: weather here. But I'm still going to see a story 35 00:01:53,680 --> 00:01:55,960 Speaker 1: in about two months from the Elsagunda Times that the 36 00:01:56,280 --> 00:01:58,680 Speaker 1: climate change is the highest temperature ever for the year 37 00:01:58,760 --> 00:02:01,680 Speaker 1: or something or the wild Program. Average temperatures for twenty 38 00:02:01,720 --> 00:02:06,320 Speaker 1: twenty two were record high. Sure, yeah, yeah, wait, there's 39 00:02:06,440 --> 00:02:09,799 Speaker 1: there's no more drought. There's we have no global warming 40 00:02:09,880 --> 00:02:13,360 Speaker 1: here in California. It's cold and it's wet, and it's 41 00:02:13,400 --> 00:02:17,680 Speaker 1: a record record snowfall. It seems up in the mountains. 42 00:02:18,440 --> 00:02:22,800 Speaker 1: I learned a new meteorological term, snow water equivalent. You 43 00:02:22,840 --> 00:02:25,399 Speaker 1: ever heard of that one? Snow water equivalent? Oh yeah, 44 00:02:25,440 --> 00:02:29,200 Speaker 1: Well it's to convert snow into how much water and 45 00:02:29,360 --> 00:02:32,760 Speaker 1: very good water depth that the snow was liquid. Yeah, 46 00:02:32,840 --> 00:02:36,200 Speaker 1: and the latest storm increased the state snow water equivalent 47 00:02:36,200 --> 00:02:40,280 Speaker 1: by around four inches to forty point six forty feet 48 00:02:40,320 --> 00:02:42,840 Speaker 1: six inches. Well, most of it's going to get washed 49 00:02:42,840 --> 00:02:45,640 Speaker 1: into the ocean once it starts to melt. I know. 50 00:02:45,880 --> 00:02:47,880 Speaker 1: I had to explain that to my family because someone's 51 00:02:47,919 --> 00:02:50,360 Speaker 1: catch all that water. We heard about your drought putout 52 00:02:50,440 --> 00:02:53,639 Speaker 1: rain barrels, and I said, well the policy although do 53 00:02:53,680 --> 00:02:55,960 Speaker 1: you see Newsom made a move to give the farmers 54 00:02:56,000 --> 00:02:58,839 Speaker 1: a little more water and not the salmon. I guess 55 00:02:58,840 --> 00:03:02,600 Speaker 1: it was announced last week. Uh yeah, no, some of 56 00:03:02,639 --> 00:03:05,400 Speaker 1: the water farmers. I'm so sick of hearing about the salmon. 57 00:03:05,480 --> 00:03:09,280 Speaker 1: I really am. Think you go extinct. We got a 58 00:03:09,360 --> 00:03:11,760 Speaker 1: state has a long history of like a suicide pact. 59 00:03:12,120 --> 00:03:16,200 Speaker 1: Screwy does screw the salmon? Grow them in those salmon 60 00:03:16,240 --> 00:03:20,240 Speaker 1: farms that McClintock was talking about the other day. All right, yeah, build, build, 61 00:03:20,280 --> 00:03:23,000 Speaker 1: a big bathtub or something and grow the salmon. There 62 00:03:23,360 --> 00:03:26,760 Speaker 1: enough of this the delta smelt, and nobody even eats that. 63 00:03:27,440 --> 00:03:31,079 Speaker 1: The delta smelt is is flimsy, little two inch fish. 64 00:03:31,120 --> 00:03:33,200 Speaker 1: And I've seen photos of it, and you wouldn't You 65 00:03:33,200 --> 00:03:35,120 Speaker 1: don't want it to look at the delta smelt. That's 66 00:03:35,120 --> 00:03:37,880 Speaker 1: an ugly little fish. It can't possibly do any good 67 00:03:37,880 --> 00:03:40,480 Speaker 1: to anybody. For anybody, you should have went up to 68 00:03:40,560 --> 00:03:44,160 Speaker 1: your your mountain house. It looks like people got snowed 69 00:03:44,200 --> 00:03:46,440 Speaker 1: in up there, like this Lake Arrowhead. Thousands have been 70 00:03:46,480 --> 00:03:49,320 Speaker 1: snowed in well six feet. I saw one place that 71 00:03:49,480 --> 00:03:52,560 Speaker 1: ninety three inches of snow was the report. Well, when 72 00:03:52,560 --> 00:03:56,240 Speaker 1: we're high mountains. On social media, there is a site 73 00:03:57,040 --> 00:04:00,280 Speaker 1: devoted to the development area we live in, and people 74 00:04:00,400 --> 00:04:03,080 Speaker 1: were showing that they were trapped in their homes because 75 00:04:03,120 --> 00:04:05,840 Speaker 1: you open the front door and you've got about four 76 00:04:05,920 --> 00:04:07,400 Speaker 1: or five feet of snow right in front of you 77 00:04:07,480 --> 00:04:09,760 Speaker 1: right at the door. I can't and they have to 78 00:04:09,760 --> 00:04:12,440 Speaker 1: shovel your way through it. The snow was halfway up 79 00:04:12,440 --> 00:04:16,000 Speaker 1: to their windows. In fact, what did I see last night? 80 00:04:16,040 --> 00:04:19,880 Speaker 1: On one of the TV newscasts. A couple of families 81 00:04:20,320 --> 00:04:25,120 Speaker 1: had decided to rent out a place, maybe Airbnb, and 82 00:04:25,880 --> 00:04:27,600 Speaker 1: they didn't pack in a food because they thought they 83 00:04:27,600 --> 00:04:29,080 Speaker 1: were gonna go home Sunday, Right, kids got to go 84 00:04:29,120 --> 00:04:32,320 Speaker 1: to school Monday, and they can't. And so the husbands 85 00:04:32,400 --> 00:04:35,440 Speaker 1: were sent down to track all the way down the 86 00:04:35,480 --> 00:04:38,600 Speaker 1: mountain until you get to the grocery store and then 87 00:04:38,600 --> 00:04:41,240 Speaker 1: all the way back up. Took them five hours. Who 88 00:04:41,320 --> 00:04:45,080 Speaker 1: they're like settlers, yep, five men have to venture out. 89 00:04:45,200 --> 00:04:50,919 Speaker 1: That's forage. Yeah, And it's easy to do because depending 90 00:04:50,920 --> 00:04:53,240 Speaker 1: on how you use a place, you can go up 91 00:04:53,240 --> 00:04:55,360 Speaker 1: there for a weekend and then maybe you're not back 92 00:04:55,400 --> 00:04:57,080 Speaker 1: for a month. Right, so you don't buy a lot 93 00:04:57,120 --> 00:04:59,280 Speaker 1: of food because it's just all gonna go back, you're 94 00:04:59,320 --> 00:05:01,880 Speaker 1: gonna throw it out out. And you know, who expected 95 00:05:01,920 --> 00:05:04,400 Speaker 1: something like this And they do a pretty good job 96 00:05:04,440 --> 00:05:07,720 Speaker 1: clearing the main roads up there, but this this nobody 97 00:05:07,720 --> 00:05:10,440 Speaker 1: can clear. I made this. No, this happened so quickly, 98 00:05:11,160 --> 00:05:14,000 Speaker 1: like six feet of snow right in a short period 99 00:05:14,040 --> 00:05:16,280 Speaker 1: of time. I mean we've been we've been up there 100 00:05:16,400 --> 00:05:19,719 Speaker 1: since oh five, and I don't ever remember anything close 101 00:05:19,760 --> 00:05:22,000 Speaker 1: to this, And we've been in snow storms up there, 102 00:05:22,080 --> 00:05:24,640 Speaker 1: and you know, power's gone out and the whole thing. Right, 103 00:05:24,680 --> 00:05:26,800 Speaker 1: if you go up there often enough, you'll run into something. 104 00:05:26,839 --> 00:05:31,040 Speaker 1: But this is just beyond off the charts, beyond. Yeah, 105 00:05:31,120 --> 00:05:33,159 Speaker 1: I'm seeing that a number of people are stuck in 106 00:05:33,160 --> 00:05:35,640 Speaker 1: the sand. Pity no mountains because of the heavy snow. 107 00:05:35,680 --> 00:05:37,720 Speaker 1: They're stuck in their homes. I don't want to hear 108 00:05:38,000 --> 00:05:42,560 Speaker 1: about any any dope that went hiking though. Uh no, No, 109 00:05:42,600 --> 00:05:45,279 Speaker 1: I haven't heard anybody gone hiking. No rescue crews for 110 00:05:45,320 --> 00:05:48,760 Speaker 1: that guy. And they never found that actor that was missing, right, 111 00:05:48,800 --> 00:05:51,119 Speaker 1: did you see that story months ago? As an actor 112 00:05:51,160 --> 00:05:53,720 Speaker 1: they wanted went hiking and has not been found springtime 113 00:05:54,040 --> 00:05:56,839 Speaker 1: Julian Sands. I believe his name was well, you know, 114 00:05:56,880 --> 00:05:58,840 Speaker 1: I actually remembered him from movies in the eighties. He's 115 00:05:58,839 --> 00:06:00,440 Speaker 1: a little older now, but I remember of the name 116 00:06:00,480 --> 00:06:02,160 Speaker 1: and I saw that. It's like they still they found 117 00:06:02,160 --> 00:06:04,160 Speaker 1: another guy that was out hiking, but they didn't find it. 118 00:06:04,360 --> 00:06:06,360 Speaker 1: And this is before the storms. You know, you just 119 00:06:06,360 --> 00:06:10,440 Speaker 1: can't do that in icy, snowy conditions. No, I mean, 120 00:06:10,480 --> 00:06:13,800 Speaker 1: I've seen, you know, some of the hiking paths and 121 00:06:13,920 --> 00:06:16,680 Speaker 1: it's really steep, and it's really narrow, and you're right 122 00:06:16,720 --> 00:06:19,400 Speaker 1: on the edge of a cliff and you have loose 123 00:06:20,360 --> 00:06:23,240 Speaker 1: rocks and dirt next to you, and there's been if 124 00:06:23,279 --> 00:06:25,440 Speaker 1: there's been a lot of erosion and a lot of water. 125 00:06:26,320 --> 00:06:28,920 Speaker 1: You know, you take one step and boom you're down, 126 00:06:29,160 --> 00:06:31,800 Speaker 1: you know, three thousand feet and you're in a snow 127 00:06:31,839 --> 00:06:34,200 Speaker 1: bank and uh, you know, eventually the animals will come 128 00:06:34,200 --> 00:06:37,840 Speaker 1: and take care of the rest of you. That's nice. Well, 129 00:06:37,880 --> 00:06:40,880 Speaker 1: that's what happens. Yeah, sometimes they find a body like 130 00:06:40,960 --> 00:06:43,640 Speaker 1: months later. Yeah, probably this happens to walk the same 131 00:06:43,760 --> 00:06:47,120 Speaker 1: area and there occasion occasionally they find, you know, a 132 00:06:47,160 --> 00:06:49,520 Speaker 1: group of bones at the at the bottom of a 133 00:06:49,560 --> 00:06:52,520 Speaker 1: cliff and oh, yeah, that's the guy that fell, you know, 134 00:06:52,600 --> 00:06:55,919 Speaker 1: back in January. Yeah, after the snow melts, you you 135 00:06:56,000 --> 00:06:59,640 Speaker 1: find that stuff. Poor fella. It's like, don't do that. Yeah, 136 00:07:00,000 --> 00:07:02,600 Speaker 1: how much stuff for you? Just just don't do it. 137 00:07:02,440 --> 00:07:05,400 Speaker 1: And it turns out you're right, you New York, right. 138 00:07:05,480 --> 00:07:08,240 Speaker 1: You read a couple of weeks ago that there was 139 00:07:08,240 --> 00:07:11,960 Speaker 1: a feeling that mid February the rainy conditions were going 140 00:07:12,000 --> 00:07:15,600 Speaker 1: to come back to so Cal and they have obviously 141 00:07:15,640 --> 00:07:18,120 Speaker 1: from the last week, but now they're thinking it. They 142 00:07:18,240 --> 00:07:21,440 Speaker 1: linger through March that we may get another rainy month 143 00:07:21,480 --> 00:07:25,640 Speaker 1: after this, not heavy rain, though nobody's predicting the incredible 144 00:07:25,680 --> 00:07:28,800 Speaker 1: thing we saw last week. Even days like dish are depressing, 145 00:07:29,440 --> 00:07:31,400 Speaker 1: just the gloom and the steady, even if it's a 146 00:07:31,520 --> 00:07:33,360 Speaker 1: lighter rain. It's like, this is the stuff. I left 147 00:07:33,360 --> 00:07:37,720 Speaker 1: the East Coast for something odd that I do. I 148 00:07:37,800 --> 00:07:39,840 Speaker 1: do a lot of about things, but I like to 149 00:07:39,880 --> 00:07:42,600 Speaker 1: see when our weather passes through California with the jet 150 00:07:42,680 --> 00:07:45,600 Speaker 1: stream and heads east, where does it go? And often 151 00:07:45,960 --> 00:07:47,760 Speaker 1: you do see a couple of days later the East 152 00:07:47,760 --> 00:07:51,000 Speaker 1: Coast gets a big snowstorm or Chicago. So I was like, 153 00:07:51,040 --> 00:07:54,480 Speaker 1: all right, Friday night was at those winds? Those winds 154 00:07:54,480 --> 00:07:56,360 Speaker 1: were incredible, by the way, I thought everything was going 155 00:07:56,400 --> 00:07:58,760 Speaker 1: to blow off my house, the dish sat light dish 156 00:07:58,800 --> 00:08:01,760 Speaker 1: on top or there was really fierce winds. I think 157 00:08:01,800 --> 00:08:04,120 Speaker 1: it was Friday night. Yeah, So I kept where did 158 00:08:04,120 --> 00:08:07,080 Speaker 1: they go? And it wasn't until today that I looked 159 00:08:07,120 --> 00:08:11,880 Speaker 1: at a website and saw, oh my gosh, Kansas, Missouri, 160 00:08:11,920 --> 00:08:16,320 Speaker 1: Oklahoma had huge tornadoes. That's where the winds went. What 161 00:08:16,400 --> 00:08:19,680 Speaker 1: do they call them, the directos direccos. Yeah, I don't 162 00:08:19,720 --> 00:08:21,240 Speaker 1: know how to pronounce it, but it's spelled d e 163 00:08:21,520 --> 00:08:25,960 Speaker 1: r eccho and it's similar to tornado, except the winds 164 00:08:25,960 --> 00:08:30,720 Speaker 1: blow straight and flattened things straight ahead rather than swirling 165 00:08:31,360 --> 00:08:36,560 Speaker 1: right and wrecking the homes. But it causes similar damage 166 00:08:36,600 --> 00:08:38,920 Speaker 1: to tornadoes in a straight line. Yeah, I heard the 167 00:08:39,000 --> 00:08:40,880 Speaker 1: usual guy on the news. I forget what stadi was 168 00:08:40,880 --> 00:08:43,880 Speaker 1: in an, Oklahoma. I've been here a long time. I 169 00:08:44,480 --> 00:08:47,440 Speaker 1: had never seen wins like this. Charts through here and 170 00:08:47,520 --> 00:08:49,120 Speaker 1: you have a lot of people, some people living in 171 00:08:49,160 --> 00:08:52,559 Speaker 1: the mobile homes. Well, right in front of the iHeart 172 00:08:52,679 --> 00:08:57,000 Speaker 1: entrance here in burbank, two trees are down. Oh three 173 00:08:57,360 --> 00:09:00,640 Speaker 1: three three, No kidding, I saw it two right they 174 00:09:00,640 --> 00:09:02,480 Speaker 1: there's a third one behind the second one. They just 175 00:09:02,520 --> 00:09:08,000 Speaker 1: planted these like two months ago. With the eucalyptus on 176 00:09:08,080 --> 00:09:11,480 Speaker 1: your property or next door to your property stayed up. Yeah, 177 00:09:11,480 --> 00:09:15,920 Speaker 1: but that it's leaning. We were looking at it this morning, 178 00:09:17,120 --> 00:09:21,200 Speaker 1: trying one guy. One guy living behind us. He's got 179 00:09:21,240 --> 00:09:24,760 Speaker 1: about four of these huge trees, and from what I understand, 180 00:09:24,760 --> 00:09:27,440 Speaker 1: I haven't talking talk to him directly. He doesn't want 181 00:09:27,480 --> 00:09:30,800 Speaker 1: to hear about it. And if they go down, it 182 00:09:30,920 --> 00:09:34,880 Speaker 1: crushes our house or a couple of other neighbors, depending 183 00:09:34,880 --> 00:09:37,280 Speaker 1: on which way the wind's blown, depending on the damage 184 00:09:37,320 --> 00:09:40,000 Speaker 1: that could be a legal situation there. It doesn't care, 185 00:09:40,080 --> 00:09:43,000 Speaker 1: It doesn't care. Yeah, but we got we got two 186 00:09:43,440 --> 00:09:45,840 Speaker 1: trees down right in the pavilion area in front of 187 00:09:45,840 --> 00:09:51,079 Speaker 1: the building, right, Oh, I guess. Oh yeah, Eric sent 188 00:09:51,120 --> 00:09:54,080 Speaker 1: a little movie of the down trees to me. Look 189 00:09:54,120 --> 00:09:59,400 Speaker 1: at that. Oh yeah, wow, Oh those are big, yow. 190 00:10:00,640 --> 00:10:03,280 Speaker 1: Didn't work. Yeah, they just planted those like two months ago. 191 00:10:03,360 --> 00:10:05,960 Speaker 1: Just did a whole new landscaping at the in the 192 00:10:06,240 --> 00:10:09,880 Speaker 1: like Patty, Oh yeah, yeah, that's probably why they didn't 193 00:10:09,880 --> 00:10:12,200 Speaker 1: really take too well. Now they have yellow crime scene 194 00:10:12,240 --> 00:10:15,000 Speaker 1: tape all around the trees they do. That's right. Be careful. 195 00:10:16,000 --> 00:10:17,880 Speaker 1: The tree has already fallen. It's not going to hit you, 196 00:10:18,000 --> 00:10:19,960 Speaker 1: but just don't walk into it while it's on the ground. 197 00:10:20,000 --> 00:10:23,079 Speaker 1: I guess that's what that means. All right, We got 198 00:10:23,480 --> 00:10:26,480 Speaker 1: more coming up. Oh, guests, who's back in the news. 199 00:10:27,240 --> 00:10:30,800 Speaker 1: We have an update on mayor former Mayor Yoga Pants, 200 00:10:30,920 --> 00:10:35,400 Speaker 1: disgraced former Mayor Yoga Pants and his India ambassador nomination. 201 00:10:35,920 --> 00:10:39,800 Speaker 1: And then this is not earth shattering news because a 202 00:10:39,840 --> 00:10:42,000 Speaker 1: lot of government agencies have been looking at the origins 203 00:10:42,000 --> 00:10:44,520 Speaker 1: of COVID. But there's one that issued a report over 204 00:10:44,600 --> 00:10:48,040 Speaker 1: the weekend saying that at least according to their research, 205 00:10:48,720 --> 00:10:51,360 Speaker 1: it was probably a lab leak. And this is set 206 00:10:51,440 --> 00:10:54,080 Speaker 1: off a firestorm, as you might expect in the whole 207 00:10:54,640 --> 00:10:57,439 Speaker 1: community of this kind of research. Talking about all this stuff. 208 00:10:57,440 --> 00:10:59,880 Speaker 1: Coming up, John and Ken caf eight M six forty. 209 00:11:00,120 --> 00:11:02,680 Speaker 1: We're live everywhere the iHeartRadio app. All right, coming up 210 00:11:02,679 --> 00:11:05,400 Speaker 1: after one thirty. We will go through the report that 211 00:11:05,520 --> 00:11:08,960 Speaker 1: popped out over the weekend that the US Department of Energy. 212 00:11:09,000 --> 00:11:10,600 Speaker 1: And of course, the first time I saw that, I said, 213 00:11:10,640 --> 00:11:12,880 Speaker 1: why would the US Department of Energy be involved in 214 00:11:12,960 --> 00:11:17,360 Speaker 1: the origins of COVID nineteen while they oversee the laboratories. 215 00:11:18,320 --> 00:11:20,040 Speaker 1: That's a big part of the story, and some of 216 00:11:20,040 --> 00:11:25,520 Speaker 1: the laboratories investigate bioweapons research. Yes, that's going on, So 217 00:11:25,640 --> 00:11:27,720 Speaker 1: they should a report. I love to say, they should 218 00:11:27,720 --> 00:11:31,040 Speaker 1: a report with like low confidence that COVID nineteen may 219 00:11:31,080 --> 00:11:33,920 Speaker 1: have leaked from a lab. All right, So there's other 220 00:11:34,000 --> 00:11:36,560 Speaker 1: agencies that investigated this, but they were agreeing with the FBI. 221 00:11:36,720 --> 00:11:39,600 Speaker 1: That was their conclusions. We'll get into this and give 222 00:11:39,640 --> 00:11:43,439 Speaker 1: you all the details. After the news had one thirty. 223 00:11:44,040 --> 00:11:47,559 Speaker 1: We have a press release that came out on Friday 224 00:11:48,480 --> 00:11:54,360 Speaker 1: from US Senator Marco Rubio of Florida. Rubio places committee 225 00:11:54,400 --> 00:11:59,439 Speaker 1: hold on seven Joe Biden nominees and guests. Who is 226 00:11:59,480 --> 00:12:03,839 Speaker 1: at the top of the seven, Eric Garcetti nominated to 227 00:12:03,920 --> 00:12:07,719 Speaker 1: serve as US Ambassador to India, whose nomination Rubio has 228 00:12:07,800 --> 00:12:14,680 Speaker 1: previously voted against. He's with the Senate Committee on Foreign Relations. 229 00:12:15,360 --> 00:12:20,160 Speaker 1: Garcetti does not take a hint. No, of course, the 230 00:12:20,280 --> 00:12:23,400 Speaker 1: restatement says, one of these nominees has ignored credible sexual 231 00:12:23,440 --> 00:12:28,800 Speaker 1: assault accusations in his prior office. That's that's Garcetti. That's Garcetti. 232 00:12:28,840 --> 00:12:33,520 Speaker 1: He's talking about. Um, how does anybody refute that other 233 00:12:33,600 --> 00:12:37,920 Speaker 1: than you know, Garcetti's blanket denial of reality. It's exactly 234 00:12:38,000 --> 00:12:41,760 Speaker 1: what he did. Now, this is this is the Democrat. 235 00:12:41,880 --> 00:12:45,479 Speaker 1: One of the democrats pet issues has been sexual harassment 236 00:12:45,559 --> 00:12:49,120 Speaker 1: in the workplace, right, definitely, especially since Me Too, right, 237 00:12:49,280 --> 00:12:51,240 Speaker 1: the whole meeting, And again, Garcetti's the one that set 238 00:12:51,320 --> 00:12:53,599 Speaker 1: up a special hotline number for people to report it. 239 00:12:53,720 --> 00:12:56,360 Speaker 1: That's right. And so during the Me Too era, the 240 00:12:56,480 --> 00:13:00,560 Speaker 1: targets were Harvey Weinstein on down, and and you saw 241 00:13:00,760 --> 00:13:04,720 Speaker 1: big names all over the place get their careers destroyed, 242 00:13:05,480 --> 00:13:08,240 Speaker 1: you know, from and you know it didn't matter it 243 00:13:08,280 --> 00:13:10,800 Speaker 1: didn't matter if it was straight or gay or what. 244 00:13:11,160 --> 00:13:16,280 Speaker 1: But you saw Kevin Spacey, you saw Matt Lauer, Charlie Rose, Weinstein, 245 00:13:16,440 --> 00:13:20,440 Speaker 1: there's some other lesser known but still very major, powerful 246 00:13:20,559 --> 00:13:25,719 Speaker 1: Hollywood figures, and so why should Garcetti be any different. No, 247 00:13:26,120 --> 00:13:28,719 Speaker 1: And as usual they like to say, well, it's not 248 00:13:28,880 --> 00:13:32,680 Speaker 1: just the harasser, but anybody that covers this up. Every 249 00:13:32,840 --> 00:13:36,360 Speaker 1: anybody in a higher position who refused to deal with 250 00:13:36,480 --> 00:13:38,400 Speaker 1: the complaints that were right in front of their face 251 00:13:38,840 --> 00:13:44,280 Speaker 1: should be punished. Silences violence, that's their phrase. And anybody 252 00:13:44,320 --> 00:13:48,760 Speaker 1: that knows anything about politics knows what happened next. Several 253 00:13:48,880 --> 00:13:52,760 Speaker 1: and actually many loyalists to Garcetti just shut up and 254 00:13:52,880 --> 00:13:56,240 Speaker 1: refused to cooperate with what was reality that Rick Jacobs's 255 00:13:56,320 --> 00:13:59,360 Speaker 1: former top aid was harassing all sorts of employees all 256 00:13:59,400 --> 00:14:04,079 Speaker 1: over the place office. Just a few brave people went 257 00:14:04,120 --> 00:14:07,040 Speaker 1: outside the circle and called it like it was. And 258 00:14:07,200 --> 00:14:11,280 Speaker 1: that's why the senators in Washington, d C. Yeah, so 259 00:14:11,400 --> 00:14:13,720 Speaker 1: far they're mostly Republican, but there's a couple of Democrats 260 00:14:14,200 --> 00:14:16,640 Speaker 1: who say, you know, there's probably truth to this, because 261 00:14:16,679 --> 00:14:18,400 Speaker 1: it's hard to get people to bust out of that 262 00:14:18,800 --> 00:14:22,440 Speaker 1: circle of trust where we're we're headed for big things 263 00:14:22,520 --> 00:14:24,960 Speaker 1: with Garcetti. Don't rock the boat and talk about what 264 00:14:25,080 --> 00:14:29,560 Speaker 1: really happened. Yeah, there's four Democratic senators who will not 265 00:14:29,760 --> 00:14:34,080 Speaker 1: commit to voting for Garcetti, including the two Arizona senators, 266 00:14:34,160 --> 00:14:37,920 Speaker 1: Mark Kelly, the former astronaut, and Christian Cinema, although she 267 00:14:38,040 --> 00:14:41,160 Speaker 1: has switched to independent status, but she's basically Democrat. Yeah, 268 00:14:41,200 --> 00:14:43,480 Speaker 1: there was a Hawaii senator too that had her doubts. 269 00:14:43,560 --> 00:14:47,240 Speaker 1: I thought about the nomination. Um, Yeah, that was the 270 00:14:47,320 --> 00:14:52,800 Speaker 1: list year. Yeah, I think Christian Jellabrand in New York, Right, 271 00:14:53,000 --> 00:14:56,800 Speaker 1: she was also withholding her vote. And I've seen a 272 00:14:56,880 --> 00:15:01,200 Speaker 1: couple other names listed. But yeah, I mean he can't. 273 00:15:01,320 --> 00:15:06,000 Speaker 1: He can't get the fifty one votes he needs. So 274 00:15:06,120 --> 00:15:08,040 Speaker 1: what does it mean if Rubio puts a hold on it? 275 00:15:08,280 --> 00:15:11,160 Speaker 1: Does that stay for long? Or a hold means you 276 00:15:11,360 --> 00:15:17,840 Speaker 1: can't just use a like a unanimous voice vote to 277 00:15:18,080 --> 00:15:21,280 Speaker 1: move his nomination along. Now, everybody's got to go on 278 00:15:21,400 --> 00:15:26,160 Speaker 1: the record and vote. Yeah, your day and the Time 279 00:15:26,280 --> 00:15:30,040 Speaker 1: says they were supposed to take up these nominations tomorrow. 280 00:15:30,560 --> 00:15:33,200 Speaker 1: Under committee rules, any member can postpone a vote on 281 00:15:33,240 --> 00:15:36,000 Speaker 1: a nominee until the next committee meeting. That means a 282 00:15:36,080 --> 00:15:39,920 Speaker 1: vote on Garciti will not take place tomorrow. So I 283 00:15:39,960 --> 00:15:41,880 Speaker 1: don't know when the next meeting is, but it could 284 00:15:41,880 --> 00:15:43,920 Speaker 1: be a week later a month. The Senate has an 285 00:15:44,120 --> 00:15:48,720 Speaker 1: endless number of ways to tie up a nominee or 286 00:15:48,760 --> 00:15:53,400 Speaker 1: tie up legislation. It is the most difficult, most constipated 287 00:15:54,520 --> 00:15:58,040 Speaker 1: governing body you'll ever see. And one of him is 288 00:15:58,080 --> 00:16:01,200 Speaker 1: that a single senator can't put a hold. And not 289 00:16:01,320 --> 00:16:04,480 Speaker 1: only that, but all the senators like to have that privilege. 290 00:16:05,120 --> 00:16:09,840 Speaker 1: So unless it's really abusive and egregious, Yeah, senators from 291 00:16:09,880 --> 00:16:12,520 Speaker 1: another party aren't going to probably do anything to Rubio 292 00:16:13,160 --> 00:16:15,360 Speaker 1: because they want their shot to do it to a 293 00:16:15,400 --> 00:16:19,320 Speaker 1: Republican nominee down the road, right, right, So it's like, oh, okay, 294 00:16:19,360 --> 00:16:21,800 Speaker 1: you don't like car Setting, Oh that's too bad, boy. Yeah, 295 00:16:21,840 --> 00:16:24,320 Speaker 1: we really like him, but hey whatever, they just they 296 00:16:24,440 --> 00:16:26,800 Speaker 1: just go along with it. Yeah, and you know what 297 00:16:26,920 --> 00:16:29,520 Speaker 1: the price is. At the very least, Rubio wants car 298 00:16:29,560 --> 00:16:31,600 Speaker 1: Sitting to show up in front of the committee and 299 00:16:32,160 --> 00:16:35,600 Speaker 1: just totally debase himself and admit to everything he saw 300 00:16:36,120 --> 00:16:38,840 Speaker 1: and then explain why if he saw all this, he 301 00:16:38,960 --> 00:16:42,600 Speaker 1: didn't do anything about it the first time around. Only 302 00:16:42,720 --> 00:16:45,800 Speaker 1: one member of the committee, a Democratic Senator from New Hampshire, 303 00:16:46,360 --> 00:16:50,720 Speaker 1: Jean Shaheen, did ask him about the sexual arrestment allegations. 304 00:16:50,760 --> 00:16:53,520 Speaker 1: For that recalls she was a soft touch. It was 305 00:16:54,000 --> 00:16:59,040 Speaker 1: they were usually you honor the president's nominees, especially for 306 00:16:59,160 --> 00:17:02,840 Speaker 1: low level position, because it's just a formalities. Everybody rubber 307 00:17:02,920 --> 00:17:05,879 Speaker 1: stamps and goes along and unless there's something egregious, nobody 308 00:17:05,920 --> 00:17:08,439 Speaker 1: nobody wants to make waves. Again, partly it's because they 309 00:17:08,520 --> 00:17:10,680 Speaker 1: got other things to do, and partly because when their 310 00:17:10,760 --> 00:17:14,000 Speaker 1: president is in and making nominations, they don't want the 311 00:17:14,040 --> 00:17:16,879 Speaker 1: Democrats to pull the same routine. But this Garcetti thing 312 00:17:16,960 --> 00:17:19,159 Speaker 1: really stands out, and one of the reasons is you 313 00:17:19,320 --> 00:17:24,760 Speaker 1: had his communications director, a woman name only Selingman, a Democrat, 314 00:17:24,920 --> 00:17:28,040 Speaker 1: come out and was very public about what was going 315 00:17:28,080 --> 00:17:30,760 Speaker 1: on in the office and how much Garcetti stuck his 316 00:17:30,840 --> 00:17:33,560 Speaker 1: head in the dirt. That made all the difference. The 317 00:17:33,720 --> 00:17:36,440 Speaker 1: termination got through the first committee, but before it got 318 00:17:36,480 --> 00:17:39,159 Speaker 1: to the Senate floor, she signed up with that whistleblower 319 00:17:39,280 --> 00:17:41,760 Speaker 1: organization and they made a lot of noise about this, 320 00:17:41,880 --> 00:17:45,280 Speaker 1: which made its way to a Republican senator's office, Chuck Grassley, 321 00:17:45,560 --> 00:17:48,760 Speaker 1: and then he opened an investigation into the accusations and 322 00:17:49,240 --> 00:17:51,840 Speaker 1: they concluded that Garcetti knew or should have known, okay 323 00:17:51,840 --> 00:17:54,000 Speaker 1: about what Jacobs is doing, so that that's really that 324 00:17:54,119 --> 00:17:56,159 Speaker 1: was key that she came forward and got that whistleblower 325 00:17:56,240 --> 00:17:58,600 Speaker 1: group behind her. So there's layers to this. First of all, 326 00:17:58,600 --> 00:18:01,200 Speaker 1: a lot of tawdry stuff went on that Garcetti knew 327 00:18:01,200 --> 00:18:06,119 Speaker 1: about and didn't stop. Secondly, you have Democrats uncomfortable with 328 00:18:06,240 --> 00:18:10,800 Speaker 1: this and a Democratic communications director who's doing a lot 329 00:18:10,840 --> 00:18:14,719 Speaker 1: of the whistle blowing. And thirdly, if what Nammy Seligmann 330 00:18:14,720 --> 00:18:17,280 Speaker 1: says is true and all the other witnesses, then you 331 00:18:17,359 --> 00:18:24,280 Speaker 1: have Garcetti lying to the Senate panel. He committed perjury. 332 00:18:25,520 --> 00:18:28,080 Speaker 1: Now that's what these senators have to deal with. They 333 00:18:28,160 --> 00:18:30,720 Speaker 1: have to deal with approving a guy that they know 334 00:18:31,320 --> 00:18:34,960 Speaker 1: lied to them in the committee hearing. How do you 335 00:18:35,040 --> 00:18:38,480 Speaker 1: deal with that? He was also under oath in the lawsuit, 336 00:18:38,560 --> 00:18:40,720 Speaker 1: remember the lawsuit by the story the police officer that 337 00:18:40,800 --> 00:18:44,520 Speaker 1: was his bodyguard, He was also under oath. He took 338 00:18:44,560 --> 00:18:47,320 Speaker 1: a deposition and he denied also. So he's lied several 339 00:18:47,400 --> 00:18:52,080 Speaker 1: times in these legal situations, and not just to talking 340 00:18:52,119 --> 00:18:54,160 Speaker 1: to the media, and they don't know what else will 341 00:18:54,200 --> 00:18:57,919 Speaker 1: come out. They don't know if there are other witnesses 342 00:18:58,000 --> 00:19:01,359 Speaker 1: that have even uglier story. They don't know if there's 343 00:19:01,400 --> 00:19:04,359 Speaker 1: other victims involving other members of his staff. Because remember 344 00:19:04,400 --> 00:19:06,359 Speaker 1: there's a lot of crap there was going on Garcidi's 345 00:19:06,400 --> 00:19:08,600 Speaker 1: office and we have his deputy mayor on trial for 346 00:19:08,720 --> 00:19:13,000 Speaker 1: corruption going on right now. So yeah, too bad. We 347 00:19:13,080 --> 00:19:16,760 Speaker 1: couldn't tie him up in that whole developer corruptions candle case. 348 00:19:17,040 --> 00:19:20,360 Speaker 1: I mean nothing so far. It was a dirty, filthy 349 00:19:20,440 --> 00:19:24,240 Speaker 1: place in many different ways. Now. The end of the 350 00:19:24,320 --> 00:19:27,120 Speaker 1: Times update on this says that the former mayor has 351 00:19:27,200 --> 00:19:31,720 Speaker 1: told people he has a planned trip to Ukraine, although 352 00:19:31,760 --> 00:19:34,440 Speaker 1: it's unclear why he would head to that country. Gar said. 353 00:19:34,480 --> 00:19:37,680 Speaker 1: He spokesman declined to comment on the trip. Is he hey, 354 00:19:37,800 --> 00:19:41,200 Speaker 1: why would he just because everyone else is going? Is 355 00:19:41,240 --> 00:19:45,959 Speaker 1: he volunteering or says going to be? He wants that ambassadorship. Now, 356 00:19:46,440 --> 00:19:48,720 Speaker 1: I don't know, why would you go to Ukraine? What 357 00:19:48,800 --> 00:19:51,159 Speaker 1: are you going to do there? To just get in 358 00:19:51,200 --> 00:19:53,719 Speaker 1: the news. I have no idea what he would Why? 359 00:19:54,000 --> 00:19:57,960 Speaker 1: What an ego back? What a colossal ego back? Where 360 00:19:58,040 --> 00:20:00,840 Speaker 1: can I go to get noticed? Oh? I I'll exploit 361 00:20:00,920 --> 00:20:04,520 Speaker 1: all the suffering of millions of Ukrainians who are getting 362 00:20:04,840 --> 00:20:07,520 Speaker 1: bombed to death by the Russians. I'll go there and 363 00:20:07,720 --> 00:20:11,680 Speaker 1: do what Wait, well, I don't remember anybody asking for 364 00:20:11,760 --> 00:20:16,320 Speaker 1: you to come. All right, An update came out from 365 00:20:16,359 --> 00:20:20,800 Speaker 1: the US Department of Energy about COVID nineteen's origins, and 366 00:20:20,960 --> 00:20:24,040 Speaker 1: they believe more likely than not it did come from 367 00:20:24,040 --> 00:20:26,320 Speaker 1: a lab league. We'll update you, John and Ken caf 368 00:20:26,400 --> 00:20:29,280 Speaker 1: I am six forty. We're live everywhere on the iHeart 369 00:20:29,480 --> 00:20:32,040 Speaker 1: radio app. All right, coming up after two o'clock, we'll 370 00:20:32,080 --> 00:20:40,639 Speaker 1: talk about the Palestinians, the Palestinians, the people Palestine, Palestine 371 00:20:40,680 --> 00:20:43,680 Speaker 1: in Ohio, Yes, yeah, East Palestine, Ohio, where of course 372 00:20:43,760 --> 00:20:47,160 Speaker 1: we had that train derailment with toxic chemicals in the air. 373 00:20:47,920 --> 00:20:51,080 Speaker 1: We are now getting more substantial reports of ill health 374 00:20:51,160 --> 00:20:55,160 Speaker 1: effects from the people that live there. Aaron Brokovitch we mentioned, 375 00:20:55,240 --> 00:20:59,720 Speaker 1: visited there late last week, not buying the bs that 376 00:21:00,000 --> 00:21:02,000 Speaker 1: it's all clear as far as the air and water 377 00:21:02,240 --> 00:21:05,439 Speaker 1: is concerned in that community. Will bring in the latest 378 00:21:05,520 --> 00:21:11,000 Speaker 1: and about thirty minutes on that story. We had a 379 00:21:11,119 --> 00:21:14,879 Speaker 1: report that popped up over the weekend from the US 380 00:21:15,040 --> 00:21:19,920 Speaker 1: Department of Energy. They concluded that the COVID pandemic most 381 00:21:20,000 --> 00:21:23,800 Speaker 1: likely arose from a lab leak. This was a classified 382 00:21:23,880 --> 00:21:30,240 Speaker 1: intelligence report. Yep, they were undecided previously in an update 383 00:21:30,280 --> 00:21:33,240 Speaker 1: they gave out in twenty twenty one. Now they joined 384 00:21:33,280 --> 00:21:37,160 Speaker 1: the FBI with the belief that it's likely the virus 385 00:21:37,200 --> 00:21:40,600 Speaker 1: spread through a mishap at a Chinese laboratory. Now there 386 00:21:40,640 --> 00:21:43,760 Speaker 1: are four other agencies along with some national intelligence panel, 387 00:21:44,200 --> 00:21:47,080 Speaker 1: that think it was natural transmission. And then there were 388 00:21:47,119 --> 00:21:49,960 Speaker 1: two other agencies that were undecided. So if you're keeping 389 00:21:49,960 --> 00:21:53,560 Speaker 1: a scoreboard on this, not that it matters. People are 390 00:21:53,560 --> 00:21:55,680 Speaker 1: believing what they want to believe on this story. Yeah, 391 00:21:55,720 --> 00:21:58,440 Speaker 1: except there's also truth. It doesn't I have no interest 392 00:21:58,520 --> 00:22:02,560 Speaker 1: in what wacky people believe. Even I heard doctor Robert 393 00:22:02,600 --> 00:22:07,639 Speaker 1: Redfield today getting interviewed. Not Redford Redfield, he was the 394 00:22:07,760 --> 00:22:13,720 Speaker 1: director of the CDC at the time of the outbreak, 395 00:22:14,280 --> 00:22:17,280 Speaker 1: and he went on publicly early on and said this 396 00:22:17,440 --> 00:22:20,879 Speaker 1: is likely from that Wuhan lab. And I heard him 397 00:22:20,920 --> 00:22:24,600 Speaker 1: interview today and he said, you know, I got attacked 398 00:22:24,680 --> 00:22:27,160 Speaker 1: by my hometown newspaper where I lived with my family 399 00:22:27,200 --> 00:22:30,800 Speaker 1: and my grandchildren on the front page, repeatedly calling me 400 00:22:30,880 --> 00:22:35,879 Speaker 1: a racist. And he said, here is why it's likely 401 00:22:36,000 --> 00:22:41,080 Speaker 1: that the virus went out of the test tube into 402 00:22:41,920 --> 00:22:45,000 Speaker 1: human beings and spread. He goes, they were trying to 403 00:22:45,160 --> 00:22:47,800 Speaker 1: claim that this is like the Stars virus and the 404 00:22:47,920 --> 00:22:52,000 Speaker 1: Mirs virus, which are two older viruses that there were 405 00:22:52,040 --> 00:22:56,600 Speaker 1: outbreaks almost twenty years ago. And he said there was 406 00:22:57,400 --> 00:23:02,119 Speaker 1: the missing piece though, was those were animal oriented viruses 407 00:23:02,520 --> 00:23:05,440 Speaker 1: that did jump to humans, but in a very limited way. 408 00:23:05,480 --> 00:23:08,000 Speaker 1: I think he said, mers affected less than a thousand people. 409 00:23:08,880 --> 00:23:12,119 Speaker 1: He said this was different in that it jumped to 410 00:23:12,359 --> 00:23:17,880 Speaker 1: humans and spread insanely, very quickly. And he said why 411 00:23:18,600 --> 00:23:23,119 Speaker 1: because in the lab they trained the virus to jaina 412 00:23:23,200 --> 00:23:26,920 Speaker 1: function right gain of function. They the purpose of the 413 00:23:27,080 --> 00:23:30,000 Speaker 1: lab was to see if they could enhance the virus 414 00:23:30,160 --> 00:23:33,360 Speaker 1: and make it spread more easily. Now you could ask 415 00:23:33,400 --> 00:23:37,639 Speaker 1: yourself why would they do that, Well, the darkest reason 416 00:23:37,840 --> 00:23:41,280 Speaker 1: is you now have a new biological weapon. The story 417 00:23:41,400 --> 00:23:45,080 Speaker 1: that researchers give is, well, you know, in the future, 418 00:23:45,240 --> 00:23:47,760 Speaker 1: in case you get a virus that mutates rapidly, we 419 00:23:48,520 --> 00:23:51,440 Speaker 1: can get ahead of it and have vaccines ready to 420 00:23:51,640 --> 00:23:55,240 Speaker 1: deal with it. Or maybe it's both stories. Forever this 421 00:23:55,359 --> 00:23:57,720 Speaker 1: is coming out of China and it just reminded me 422 00:23:58,200 --> 00:24:00,879 Speaker 1: and I actually heard somebody play the clip today. The 423 00:24:01,000 --> 00:24:04,080 Speaker 1: guy who got it right was John Stewart. He said, 424 00:24:04,119 --> 00:24:10,520 Speaker 1: if you have a a coronavirus John Stewart, the comedian 425 00:24:10,920 --> 00:24:13,680 Speaker 1: start TV show Comedy Central. Right, but he was a 426 00:24:13,760 --> 00:24:17,680 Speaker 1: guest with Stephen Colbert. Yes, and he went right and 427 00:24:17,800 --> 00:24:19,960 Speaker 1: he said, well, if you have if you have this, 428 00:24:20,200 --> 00:24:25,080 Speaker 1: this this novel coronavirus. And then in Wuhan you have 429 00:24:25,280 --> 00:24:29,000 Speaker 1: the Institute of Novel Coronaviruses. Gee, where do you think 430 00:24:29,040 --> 00:24:30,960 Speaker 1: it came from? And he said, it would be like 431 00:24:31,119 --> 00:24:33,560 Speaker 1: being in Hershey, Pennsylvania. And if there was an outbreak 432 00:24:33,600 --> 00:24:36,159 Speaker 1: of chocolate e goodenliness, well, then where would it be 433 00:24:36,200 --> 00:24:39,400 Speaker 1: coming from. It would be coming from a Hershey would 434 00:24:39,400 --> 00:24:42,760 Speaker 1: be How could you not see that they have never 435 00:24:42,960 --> 00:24:47,000 Speaker 1: found a single animal with this virus anywhere in China. 436 00:24:47,920 --> 00:24:51,600 Speaker 1: And three of the researchers got really sick in November 437 00:24:51,760 --> 00:24:54,160 Speaker 1: twenty nineteen. Yeah, I remember that story. They were taken 438 00:24:54,200 --> 00:24:57,040 Speaker 1: to the hospital. So this is not an outrageous theory. 439 00:24:57,119 --> 00:24:59,600 Speaker 1: But oh my god. You know you go through the 440 00:24:59,680 --> 00:25:02,800 Speaker 1: list to media outlets that called everybody and their brother 441 00:25:03,000 --> 00:25:06,560 Speaker 1: racist if you suggested that it came out of China, 442 00:25:07,440 --> 00:25:09,440 Speaker 1: and why this was I don't know. I don't know 443 00:25:09,600 --> 00:25:12,360 Speaker 1: why all these left wing progressives at such an investment 444 00:25:12,440 --> 00:25:16,080 Speaker 1: in protecting the Chinese Communist Party, because that's what who 445 00:25:16,200 --> 00:25:19,919 Speaker 1: ran the Wuhan Lab, That's who've covered up the investigations. 446 00:25:20,359 --> 00:25:23,600 Speaker 1: That's who largely was financing the research. That's who launched 447 00:25:23,640 --> 00:25:27,080 Speaker 1: a balloon over our country. That's right. And doctor Fauci 448 00:25:27,359 --> 00:25:31,159 Speaker 1: did send funding that zig zagged around and ended up 449 00:25:31,240 --> 00:25:34,720 Speaker 1: in Wuhan. It did, yes, yeah, it got placed there right, 450 00:25:35,400 --> 00:25:37,760 Speaker 1: and part of it was gain a function research, gain 451 00:25:37,800 --> 00:25:40,520 Speaker 1: a function research. So this is not a big mystery. 452 00:25:40,640 --> 00:25:43,760 Speaker 1: It actually makes perfect sense. The whole story lines up 453 00:25:43,800 --> 00:25:47,400 Speaker 1: A to B to C to D to E. Now, yes, 454 00:25:47,720 --> 00:25:51,679 Speaker 1: and because we can't get actual access to the ground 455 00:25:51,840 --> 00:25:55,680 Speaker 1: zero possibility the Wuhan lab, it makes it difficult for 456 00:25:55,760 --> 00:25:58,639 Speaker 1: anybody to say conclusively. Like I said, this Energy Department 457 00:25:58,640 --> 00:26:01,000 Speaker 1: of report came out with what do they call it 458 00:26:01,119 --> 00:26:06,800 Speaker 1: moderate confidence? Low confidence? Yeah, the FBI has moderate confidence, 459 00:26:07,320 --> 00:26:10,840 Speaker 1: But I was saying, what is the purpose of shutting 460 00:26:10,920 --> 00:26:13,800 Speaker 1: down the conversation for moment one? They did this on 461 00:26:13,920 --> 00:26:17,480 Speaker 1: all the social media channels. If you if you wrote 462 00:26:17,560 --> 00:26:22,840 Speaker 1: about the China, Oh what complicated this was? Trump because 463 00:26:23,800 --> 00:26:27,600 Speaker 1: because he came out immediately, you know, with the Kung flu. Yeah, 464 00:26:27,840 --> 00:26:30,920 Speaker 1: and that just all Trump is always a racist. So 465 00:26:31,040 --> 00:26:33,360 Speaker 1: all the media jumped on that and they would never 466 00:26:33,480 --> 00:26:36,600 Speaker 1: accept any lab leak theory because of what he did 467 00:26:36,680 --> 00:26:39,240 Speaker 1: to it, you know, and that's really great, is wrong, 468 00:26:39,359 --> 00:26:42,440 Speaker 1: because that's not science. You can have your fanaticism, it's 469 00:26:42,440 --> 00:26:44,560 Speaker 1: a free country. You can have your phobias about Trump. 470 00:26:44,760 --> 00:26:47,440 Speaker 1: Whatever it is, whatever Trump does to your brain, fine, 471 00:26:47,960 --> 00:26:52,400 Speaker 1: but that's not science and it's not journalism. Now you're 472 00:26:52,440 --> 00:26:54,880 Speaker 1: just a bunch of people in the schoolyard calling each 473 00:26:54,880 --> 00:26:58,280 Speaker 1: other names. You're a bunch of idiots, all right, right, 474 00:26:58,560 --> 00:27:01,000 Speaker 1: And that's what really compli d of the entire world 475 00:27:01,040 --> 00:27:04,119 Speaker 1: the last six years was Trump. Because you know, you 476 00:27:04,160 --> 00:27:06,520 Speaker 1: can talk about the Hunter Biden laptop. It's all these 477 00:27:06,560 --> 00:27:09,480 Speaker 1: stories a squelched. It's just a conspiracy. It's crazy people. 478 00:27:09,560 --> 00:27:13,200 Speaker 1: The Russian dossier and now the lab leak theory. They're 479 00:27:13,240 --> 00:27:16,200 Speaker 1: all just undermined because if they come anywhere from the 480 00:27:16,240 --> 00:27:19,840 Speaker 1: Trump camp or anyone that Trump would support on that issue, 481 00:27:20,080 --> 00:27:23,159 Speaker 1: we have to squelshit. They're either racist or you're just 482 00:27:23,200 --> 00:27:27,639 Speaker 1: a nutty conspirast. Interestingly enough, a spokesperson for the Chinese 483 00:27:27,680 --> 00:27:30,800 Speaker 1: Foreign Ministry piped up today on this report, and I 484 00:27:31,240 --> 00:27:34,160 Speaker 1: have to tell you her name is Mao Ning Mao 485 00:27:34,760 --> 00:27:40,359 Speaker 1: like Chairman Mao. Anyway, this was not a science based 486 00:27:40,440 --> 00:27:45,320 Speaker 1: authoritary of conclusion, and she pointed to the World Health 487 00:27:45,520 --> 00:27:49,760 Speaker 1: Organization slash Chinese study which revealed that it was more 488 00:27:49,840 --> 00:27:53,480 Speaker 1: likely from a natural origin the Chinese to talk about 489 00:27:53,560 --> 00:27:57,760 Speaker 1: that not being credible. The Chinese are the primary funder 490 00:27:57,840 --> 00:28:01,119 Speaker 1: of the World Health Organization, and the World Health Organization 491 00:28:01,440 --> 00:28:05,080 Speaker 1: was forced to cover up what was happening in China 492 00:28:05,760 --> 00:28:10,080 Speaker 1: in the early months. It happened in November, the Lab League, 493 00:28:10,600 --> 00:28:15,440 Speaker 1: we didn't really know about it till January and December 494 00:28:15,520 --> 00:28:18,400 Speaker 1: the story started popping up about some strange flu in China. 495 00:28:18,440 --> 00:28:22,520 Speaker 1: I remember that they never allowed any investigation early on. 496 00:28:23,680 --> 00:28:27,720 Speaker 1: They lie constantly. The Chinese Communist Party is right up 497 00:28:27,760 --> 00:28:31,160 Speaker 1: there with Russia. What they do is they publicly lie 498 00:28:31,200 --> 00:28:33,959 Speaker 1: about everything, especially things that put them in a bad light. 499 00:28:34,440 --> 00:28:37,680 Speaker 1: So if they make a pronouncement, you can assume safely 500 00:28:37,840 --> 00:28:41,880 Speaker 1: that it's probably the opposite, right, And I don't know 501 00:28:41,880 --> 00:28:44,760 Speaker 1: if they were embarrassed. It doesn't seem like there's any 502 00:28:44,800 --> 00:28:48,400 Speaker 1: evidence they did this on purpose, but and certainly it 503 00:28:48,480 --> 00:28:50,760 Speaker 1: blew back on them pretty hard over the three years. 504 00:28:51,080 --> 00:28:55,040 Speaker 1: Oh and by the way, that United Nations World Health 505 00:28:55,160 --> 00:29:00,320 Speaker 1: Organization Chinese report Beijing appointed half the researchers on the mission, 506 00:29:00,560 --> 00:29:03,720 Speaker 1: restricted the team's access to critical data, and block the 507 00:29:03,760 --> 00:29:06,760 Speaker 1: World Help Organization attempts to conduct a phase two study 508 00:29:07,120 --> 00:29:11,240 Speaker 1: that would include a review of Wahan's surroundings. So clearly, 509 00:29:11,520 --> 00:29:14,480 Speaker 1: just reading that paragraph alone tells you the fix was 510 00:29:14,520 --> 00:29:18,360 Speaker 1: in And that's not a credible report. No, and and 511 00:29:18,720 --> 00:29:22,800 Speaker 1: this isn't This is perfectly perfectly aligned with their character. 512 00:29:23,560 --> 00:29:26,200 Speaker 1: It's like they're still claiming that the balloon was a 513 00:29:26,240 --> 00:29:30,640 Speaker 1: weather balloon when we have the spy equipment. Yes, we've 514 00:29:30,640 --> 00:29:33,800 Speaker 1: already announced that we have determined this was spy equipment, 515 00:29:33,840 --> 00:29:36,600 Speaker 1: and they're still claiming it's a weather balloon. I mean, 516 00:29:36,680 --> 00:29:39,080 Speaker 1: and they're comical, But this is what what we're dealing with. 517 00:29:39,200 --> 00:29:41,880 Speaker 1: The question is and Trump may be the entire answer 518 00:29:41,960 --> 00:29:45,000 Speaker 1: to it. But if it isn't Trump, what was the 519 00:29:45,080 --> 00:29:47,880 Speaker 1: obsession of so many people in the media and the 520 00:29:48,400 --> 00:29:52,240 Speaker 1: and the social media companies to squash not just squash 521 00:29:52,280 --> 00:29:57,360 Speaker 1: the information, but try to demonize and smear anybody who 522 00:29:57,520 --> 00:30:01,440 Speaker 1: offered the opposite theory, who said just said, hey, we 523 00:30:01,560 --> 00:30:04,760 Speaker 1: should check in to see if this was a lab 524 00:30:04,880 --> 00:30:08,040 Speaker 1: leak and not an animal. And then you were vilified 525 00:30:08,160 --> 00:30:13,360 Speaker 1: from here to the end of time viciously. Remember at 526 00:30:13,400 --> 00:30:16,920 Speaker 1: the very beginning of this, it was doctor Fauci and 527 00:30:17,000 --> 00:30:19,720 Speaker 1: his cohorts who were trying to put the kai bosh 528 00:30:20,240 --> 00:30:23,280 Speaker 1: on the lab leak theory. They lined up a whole 529 00:30:23,360 --> 00:30:26,520 Speaker 1: bunch of experts to say, oh, not credible, don't go 530 00:30:26,640 --> 00:30:28,640 Speaker 1: in that direction. That was like in the first year 531 00:30:28,760 --> 00:30:32,120 Speaker 1: of the outbreak. I was always suspicious of that. I 532 00:30:32,160 --> 00:30:34,080 Speaker 1: don't really understand why they were so quick to trying 533 00:30:34,120 --> 00:30:38,400 Speaker 1: to do that too, because he knew that his money 534 00:30:38,720 --> 00:30:42,200 Speaker 1: had financed the research. He's a smart guy. Oh, he knew. 535 00:30:42,200 --> 00:30:44,000 Speaker 1: When that came out, the conclusion would be you did 536 00:30:44,080 --> 00:30:46,960 Speaker 1: this with your adding a function research money. And that 537 00:30:47,160 --> 00:30:50,960 Speaker 1: other doctor I think his name is Robert dan Zac. Yeah, 538 00:30:51,720 --> 00:30:56,160 Speaker 1: he got the grant from Fauci his organization, and then 539 00:30:56,320 --> 00:30:59,120 Speaker 1: dan Zac directed the money to Wuhuan. And what did 540 00:30:59,200 --> 00:31:02,080 Speaker 1: dan Zac do if I remember this right, He got 541 00:31:02,360 --> 00:31:06,560 Speaker 1: dozens and dozens of doctors and scientists to sign a 542 00:31:06,720 --> 00:31:09,720 Speaker 1: public petition and they bought ad space in the major 543 00:31:09,800 --> 00:31:14,280 Speaker 1: newspapers saying that it is absolutely wrong that this could 544 00:31:14,280 --> 00:31:17,840 Speaker 1: have come from the lab. Now, why did he do that? 545 00:31:18,040 --> 00:31:20,280 Speaker 1: Why did he step out a guy nobody ever heard of. 546 00:31:20,560 --> 00:31:24,400 Speaker 1: He is suddenly organizing all these other scientists to put 547 00:31:24,480 --> 00:31:28,480 Speaker 1: this ad out and look at that. He got a 548 00:31:28,560 --> 00:31:31,200 Speaker 1: check from Fauci. Oh and the money ended up going 549 00:31:31,280 --> 00:31:37,440 Speaker 1: to Wuhan enhancing this particular virus. All right, we got 550 00:31:37,520 --> 00:31:40,240 Speaker 1: more coming up, John and Ken KF I am six forty. 551 00:31:40,240 --> 00:31:42,800 Speaker 1: We're live everywhere on the iHeart radio app. Probably got 552 00:31:42,840 --> 00:31:45,320 Speaker 1: some good audio to play next hour from old Joe Biden, 553 00:31:45,800 --> 00:31:48,360 Speaker 1: who's doing another one of these network TV interviews with 554 00:31:48,480 --> 00:31:52,400 Speaker 1: David Muir. You called him the underwear model, rightwear, Yes, right, 555 00:31:52,520 --> 00:31:54,040 Speaker 1: So he's getting a little aged now that I have 556 00:31:54,080 --> 00:31:58,240 Speaker 1: you seen him recently. Doesn't look so boyish anymore. Models 557 00:31:58,280 --> 00:32:03,240 Speaker 1: get old, starting to fade. Yeah. Anyway, there's a bad 558 00:32:03,280 --> 00:32:05,560 Speaker 1: inflation report that actually came out a couple of days ago, 559 00:32:05,640 --> 00:32:08,560 Speaker 1: and Biden's blame in the media for the economy. You'll 560 00:32:08,600 --> 00:32:11,120 Speaker 1: hear this and the clip we will play and the 561 00:32:11,200 --> 00:32:15,080 Speaker 1: two o'clock hour will begin though, talking about the people 562 00:32:15,960 --> 00:32:19,480 Speaker 1: in the vicinity of East Palestine, Ohio, who are coming 563 00:32:19,560 --> 00:32:23,120 Speaker 1: down now with real illnesses. There was a train derailment 564 00:32:23,160 --> 00:32:26,120 Speaker 1: a couple of weeks ago which unleased some toxic chemicals 565 00:32:26,200 --> 00:32:30,000 Speaker 1: into the air and the water, and supposedly, now I 566 00:32:30,120 --> 00:32:32,760 Speaker 1: just read over the weekend, the US is sending a 567 00:32:32,880 --> 00:32:37,280 Speaker 1: team there to investigate the claims of people's ill health effects. 568 00:32:37,360 --> 00:32:43,800 Speaker 1: So we'll get into that too in the two o'clock hours. 569 00:32:43,840 --> 00:32:48,000 Speaker 1: Some good news. We were just talking about COVID nineteen 570 00:32:48,560 --> 00:32:53,280 Speaker 1: and the origins of COVID nineteen. We have the latest update, 571 00:32:53,360 --> 00:32:56,160 Speaker 1: John on the flu shot. Did you get this year's 572 00:32:56,160 --> 00:32:59,000 Speaker 1: flu shot? I did? You did? Yes? I did. I 573 00:32:59,120 --> 00:33:03,560 Speaker 1: took one in each arm. I took the latest Oh, 574 00:33:03,640 --> 00:33:05,920 Speaker 1: it's COVID vaccine in one. I did. Yeah, I did 575 00:33:05,960 --> 00:33:07,920 Speaker 1: that together, and then I read a month or two 576 00:33:08,000 --> 00:33:09,920 Speaker 1: later you could get a stroke from that. Oh well, 577 00:33:11,440 --> 00:33:14,720 Speaker 1: then everything comes out months or years later. It's like 578 00:33:14,840 --> 00:33:18,320 Speaker 1: three years later. Oh yeah, COVID came out of that lab. Well, 579 00:33:18,440 --> 00:33:23,880 Speaker 1: you were right. The latest vaccine booster, which is the 580 00:33:23,960 --> 00:33:25,400 Speaker 1: one what did they call it? They had a name 581 00:33:25,480 --> 00:33:28,360 Speaker 1: for it, right, Yes, it would help you with all 582 00:33:28,400 --> 00:33:34,560 Speaker 1: the various bivalance bivalent. Yes that they didn't really test 583 00:33:34,640 --> 00:33:36,200 Speaker 1: it because they wanted to get it out there in 584 00:33:36,240 --> 00:33:38,120 Speaker 1: the market. So they were just going to take real 585 00:33:38,320 --> 00:33:41,480 Speaker 1: data from people who got the shot and then release 586 00:33:41,600 --> 00:33:44,080 Speaker 1: some reports a couple of months later. And the first 587 00:33:44,160 --> 00:33:46,800 Speaker 1: reports were good, they were encouraging that the bivalent shot 588 00:33:46,880 --> 00:33:48,880 Speaker 1: was really doing. And a couple of months later like 589 00:33:49,040 --> 00:33:53,080 Speaker 1: acts like, some people had some strokes and some other problems, 590 00:33:53,640 --> 00:33:55,920 Speaker 1: particularly if you're older and you took both shots at 591 00:33:55,960 --> 00:33:59,840 Speaker 1: the same time, the flu shot and the bivalance shot. Yeah, 592 00:34:00,000 --> 00:34:04,160 Speaker 1: they only had mouse research when they released it. Yeah, 593 00:34:04,200 --> 00:34:06,120 Speaker 1: I don't know that. I feel like a mouse. That 594 00:34:06,520 --> 00:34:10,120 Speaker 1: that makes me confident. No, no, And so this is 595 00:34:10,200 --> 00:34:12,080 Speaker 1: this is the last that's the last shot I take 596 00:34:12,160 --> 00:34:17,400 Speaker 1: without them doing human research. Well, the flu vaccine for 597 00:34:17,600 --> 00:34:21,080 Speaker 1: this winter, because we're now almost in March, get this 598 00:34:21,920 --> 00:34:25,759 Speaker 1: forty five percent effective. Let's give a standing ovation. That's 599 00:34:25,800 --> 00:34:27,879 Speaker 1: a that's a good number for them. Yeah, usually they're 600 00:34:27,880 --> 00:34:32,120 Speaker 1: around thirty percent or less, right, Yeah, so it jumped, 601 00:34:34,080 --> 00:34:38,640 Speaker 1: particularly among children. The flu vaccine seemed to work according 602 00:34:38,680 --> 00:34:43,200 Speaker 1: to the latest research, and they believe that vaccinated children 603 00:34:43,239 --> 00:34:46,120 Speaker 1: were sixty eight percent less likely hospitalized and forty eight 604 00:34:46,160 --> 00:34:49,480 Speaker 1: percent less likely visit an emergency department due to a 605 00:34:49,560 --> 00:34:53,760 Speaker 1: flu or flu related sickness, adults overall forty four percent 606 00:34:53,840 --> 00:34:56,280 Speaker 1: less likely and thirty nine percent less likely to be hospitalized. 607 00:34:56,320 --> 00:35:01,000 Speaker 1: So it looks like because I remember the twin demic, 608 00:35:01,200 --> 00:35:03,200 Speaker 1: what was it, the tridemic, they thought there could be 609 00:35:03,280 --> 00:35:07,520 Speaker 1: three things going because you had the the RSVR infecting 610 00:35:07,600 --> 00:35:10,919 Speaker 1: children and the flu, and now the neuravirus is making 611 00:35:10,920 --> 00:35:14,000 Speaker 1: a sweep through the country and giving people the twenty 612 00:35:14,040 --> 00:35:17,200 Speaker 1: four our stomach flu. Oh no, that's the buffet disease. 613 00:35:17,239 --> 00:35:20,080 Speaker 1: I call it. Yes, Yeah, that's the hottest thing going. 614 00:35:20,360 --> 00:35:22,040 Speaker 1: In fact, if that's the one where you can get 615 00:35:22,080 --> 00:35:25,560 Speaker 1: it by you know, the hands on something that's right touching, 616 00:35:25,960 --> 00:35:28,440 Speaker 1: and you get touched, the runs and the vomits for 617 00:35:28,560 --> 00:35:31,240 Speaker 1: a day. And that's why I call it the buffet disease, 618 00:35:31,239 --> 00:35:33,719 Speaker 1: because everybody's got their hands on the spoons to pull 619 00:35:33,840 --> 00:35:35,640 Speaker 1: the food into their plates, and then you walk right 620 00:35:35,680 --> 00:35:37,799 Speaker 1: up behind him and you grab the same spoon. First 621 00:35:37,840 --> 00:35:40,640 Speaker 1: time I heard about the neuro virus, which is really 622 00:35:40,680 --> 00:35:43,560 Speaker 1: popular on cruise ships because of the buffet. That's it. 623 00:35:43,719 --> 00:35:48,040 Speaker 1: I've never I've never touched another buffet again. Yeah. Also 624 00:35:48,080 --> 00:35:50,560 Speaker 1: because cruise ships, people are just in close quarters everywhere 625 00:35:50,600 --> 00:35:54,680 Speaker 1: they go. There's dance halls, there's clubs, there's and you're 626 00:35:54,719 --> 00:35:56,520 Speaker 1: you're inside a lot of the time. Even go out 627 00:35:56,600 --> 00:35:58,239 Speaker 1: on the deck, but you're inside a lot of the time. 628 00:35:58,480 --> 00:36:02,360 Speaker 1: Friend of mine got that the other day, noravirus, nora virus. 629 00:36:02,360 --> 00:36:05,840 Speaker 1: Well all the symptoms of nora virus. Oh, no, he 630 00:36:06,280 --> 00:36:09,440 Speaker 1: vomited and he pooped. Well I didn't watch, no, but 631 00:36:09,520 --> 00:36:11,040 Speaker 1: I mean he gave you the report. Yeah, he gave 632 00:36:11,080 --> 00:36:13,520 Speaker 1: me the report. Yeah, he had to. He checked many boxes, 633 00:36:13,719 --> 00:36:15,239 Speaker 1: and I told him I sent him an article on 634 00:36:15,320 --> 00:36:18,239 Speaker 1: I say, I think it's this. Is he a buffet person? No, 635 00:36:18,680 --> 00:36:21,720 Speaker 1: it's psyche. You know, you just pick it up wherever 636 00:36:21,760 --> 00:36:24,960 Speaker 1: you pick it up. Spreads faster at buffet's, faster on 637 00:36:25,040 --> 00:36:30,160 Speaker 1: cruise ships. Right. The twenty twenty two twenty three flu 638 00:36:30,280 --> 00:36:35,000 Speaker 1: season actually peaked in November and early December. Positive tests 639 00:36:35,080 --> 00:36:38,920 Speaker 1: hit twenty six percent. Now we're down to just two percent, 640 00:36:40,040 --> 00:36:44,719 Speaker 1: So the flu has really tailed off. And I'm not 641 00:36:44,760 --> 00:36:46,759 Speaker 1: sure sure people even know if they have the flu 642 00:36:46,840 --> 00:36:48,600 Speaker 1: where they had COVID. I mean, they could home test, 643 00:36:48,680 --> 00:36:53,440 Speaker 1: but honestly, yeah, anecdotally, more people I know had something 644 00:36:53,560 --> 00:36:57,520 Speaker 1: this year. There seemed to be a lot of germs 645 00:36:57,600 --> 00:37:02,080 Speaker 1: going around than I can remember. Yeah, And I think 646 00:37:02,160 --> 00:37:04,879 Speaker 1: that's because and it was that basis of what I'm reading, 647 00:37:05,000 --> 00:37:08,399 Speaker 1: people have really let it rip. I think the last 648 00:37:08,480 --> 00:37:11,799 Speaker 1: holdouts about getting together in big groups or doing things 649 00:37:11,840 --> 00:37:14,399 Speaker 1: that they weren't doing the two years previous, or doing 650 00:37:14,480 --> 00:37:18,160 Speaker 1: it this year. You probably already saw. Trip bookings are 651 00:37:18,200 --> 00:37:21,759 Speaker 1: off the charts for this summer, especially to Europe. People 652 00:37:21,760 --> 00:37:24,399 Speaker 1: are very difficult, the flights are very expensive. Everybody wants 653 00:37:24,400 --> 00:37:27,000 Speaker 1: to go now. They finally said, all all the public 654 00:37:27,120 --> 00:37:30,000 Speaker 1: nags should stand down because it makes everyone hate you. 655 00:37:31,760 --> 00:37:34,760 Speaker 1: Now except for the for the for the mental patients, 656 00:37:34,880 --> 00:37:38,000 Speaker 1: nobody wants to hear about any more restrictions, any more 657 00:37:38,080 --> 00:37:41,800 Speaker 1: masking and nothing.
