1
00:00:00,800 --> 00:00:02,080
Speaker 1: I am six forty.

2
00:00:02,120 --> 00:00:05,600
Speaker 2: You're listening to the John Cobelt podcast on the iHeartRadio apps,

3
00:00:06,280 --> 00:00:08,799
Speaker 2: and then after six if you miss stuff, it's John

4
00:00:08,800 --> 00:00:11,119
Speaker 2: Cobelt's show on demand. That's the podcast and it's the

5
00:00:11,119 --> 00:00:13,120
Speaker 2: same as the radio show. And that's how you keep up.

6
00:00:13,600 --> 00:00:16,640
Speaker 1: Oh well, never a dull day. Huh.

7
00:00:16,760 --> 00:00:20,400
Speaker 2: Today's excitement is the news, according to ABC News, that

8
00:00:20,480 --> 00:00:24,480
Speaker 2: the FBI warned police departments all over the state that

9
00:00:24,600 --> 00:00:29,840
Speaker 2: Iran could be launching drones to attack the West Coast

10
00:00:31,960 --> 00:00:36,000
Speaker 2: as part of their response to our bombing in Iran.

11
00:00:36,600 --> 00:00:40,879
Speaker 2: And we are now going to talk with Rich Frankel's

12
00:00:41,000 --> 00:00:44,680
Speaker 2: former special Agent in charge of the FBI, and he's

13
00:00:44,720 --> 00:00:47,800
Speaker 2: going to discuss the details of the intelligence that the

14
00:00:47,880 --> 00:00:51,280
Speaker 2: FBI collected, details of the warning, and whether they still

15
00:00:51,320 --> 00:00:53,320
Speaker 2: believe this is something that's real.

16
00:00:54,440 --> 00:00:55,240
Speaker 1: Rich, How are you.

17
00:00:56,760 --> 00:01:01,600
Speaker 3: Very good? Yeah, it's I don't know if it's active,

18
00:01:01,840 --> 00:01:03,680
Speaker 3: but if the FBI is putting this out, they at

19
00:01:03,760 --> 00:01:05,720
Speaker 3: least think it's real enough that they wanted to warn

20
00:01:05,959 --> 00:01:06,959
Speaker 3: local law enforcement.

21
00:01:08,200 --> 00:01:11,600
Speaker 2: So but they first yeah, right, they first taught told

22
00:01:11,640 --> 00:01:14,920
Speaker 2: law enforcement like a couple of weeks ago.

23
00:01:16,800 --> 00:01:19,640
Speaker 3: Well, no, it actually came out where they were getting

24
00:01:19,680 --> 00:01:21,960
Speaker 3: their own intel. It looks like a couple of weeks

25
00:01:22,000 --> 00:01:25,319
Speaker 3: ago and the FBI was working, you know, probably with

26
00:01:25,680 --> 00:01:31,080
Speaker 3: our other intel partners to determine if there was a threat.

27
00:01:32,240 --> 00:01:37,119
Speaker 3: But for whatever reason, you know, whether it's because they

28
00:01:37,120 --> 00:01:41,360
Speaker 3: did a threat evaluation and determined that, you know, they

29
00:01:41,400 --> 00:01:44,800
Speaker 3: needed to put this out today because the threat has

30
00:01:44,880 --> 00:01:51,200
Speaker 3: either gotten more more real or that they just have

31
00:01:51,320 --> 00:01:53,160
Speaker 3: not been able to put it to bed, and they

32
00:01:53,160 --> 00:01:56,560
Speaker 3: had to let law enforcement know because you never want

33
00:01:56,680 --> 00:02:00,280
Speaker 3: law enforcement surprised by anything of this type that they

34
00:02:00,320 --> 00:02:03,240
Speaker 3: put it out in this type of uh okay, uh

35
00:02:03,640 --> 00:02:07,560
Speaker 3: uh you know, uh data. The one thing I will

36
00:02:07,600 --> 00:02:10,200
Speaker 3: say is that you know, they've probably been working this

37
00:02:10,280 --> 00:02:13,520
Speaker 3: through the JTTF for the last couple of weeks on

38
00:02:13,600 --> 00:02:16,760
Speaker 3: the secret side or you know, uh covertly, and a

39
00:02:16,840 --> 00:02:20,279
Speaker 3: lot of those agencies do work with them through the JTTF,

40
00:02:20,560 --> 00:02:23,639
Speaker 3: So it is uh something for them to actually put

41
00:02:23,639 --> 00:02:24,160
Speaker 3: it out like this.

42
00:02:24,360 --> 00:02:27,080
Speaker 1: And the JTTF is the Joint Terrorism Task Force.

43
00:02:28,120 --> 00:02:29,560
Speaker 3: Yes, sorry about that, Yes, it is.

44
00:02:29,560 --> 00:02:30,400
Speaker 1: Okay, all right.

45
00:02:30,480 --> 00:02:36,400
Speaker 2: So they got the intelligence early February, they tell police

46
00:02:36,440 --> 00:02:40,520
Speaker 2: departments just a few days ago, and it finally the

47
00:02:40,560 --> 00:02:42,960
Speaker 2: news leaks out today. Did they make an official announcement

48
00:02:43,000 --> 00:02:46,120
Speaker 2: today or was this an ABC News exclusive? You you

49
00:02:46,120 --> 00:02:48,600
Speaker 2: guys figured this out and went.

50
00:02:48,440 --> 00:02:51,080
Speaker 3: With it, So it appears that, Yeah, it appears that

51
00:02:51,160 --> 00:02:55,080
Speaker 3: it was ABC put it out, Uh, based upon you know,

52
00:02:55,120 --> 00:02:56,960
Speaker 3: them talking to their sources and getting it you know,

53
00:02:57,040 --> 00:03:00,000
Speaker 3: through their through their methods, and then from what I understand,

54
00:03:00,400 --> 00:03:03,320
Speaker 3: La Times has also now confirmed it and also put

55
00:03:03,360 --> 00:03:06,480
Speaker 3: it out, so it appears to be more Now.

56
00:03:06,480 --> 00:03:08,400
Speaker 2: Yeah, the La Times has a curious story, and I

57
00:03:08,440 --> 00:03:10,440
Speaker 2: just called it up to see if they're sticking with it.

58
00:03:11,800 --> 00:03:15,280
Speaker 2: They acknowledge, you know, this is true what you've been saying,

59
00:03:15,280 --> 00:03:18,959
Speaker 2: but sources told The Times that there's no credible intelligence

60
00:03:19,000 --> 00:03:25,000
Speaker 2: to support it. It was based on intelligence received by

61
00:03:25,000 --> 00:03:30,639
Speaker 2: the Coastguard and it's it's cautionary, but it's not deemed

62
00:03:30,680 --> 00:03:33,200
Speaker 2: credible at this time, which doesn't mean it isn't true.

63
00:03:33,240 --> 00:03:35,400
Speaker 2: It just means, I guess they can't find enough proof,

64
00:03:35,520 --> 00:03:36,760
Speaker 2: enough corroboration.

65
00:03:38,400 --> 00:03:43,560
Speaker 3: Correct. Yeah, if they didn't believe it to be accurate,

66
00:03:43,880 --> 00:03:45,839
Speaker 3: they may have still put it out, but would say

67
00:03:45,840 --> 00:03:48,080
Speaker 3: that you know, they've you know, they've done everything and

68
00:03:48,120 --> 00:03:50,280
Speaker 3: it does not appear to be credible. In other words,

69
00:03:50,480 --> 00:03:54,000
Speaker 3: it appears to be you know, false information, but they're

70
00:03:54,000 --> 00:03:56,520
Speaker 3: putting it out just to make sure that everyone's aware

71
00:03:56,560 --> 00:03:59,520
Speaker 3: of the reporting. This seems to be more in the

72
00:03:59,640 --> 00:04:04,040
Speaker 3: in the little area where uh the source, whether it's

73
00:04:04,040 --> 00:04:07,240
Speaker 3: a coast guard or another agency. UH did get information

74
00:04:07,640 --> 00:04:13,600
Speaker 3: that that Iran wanted to commit these acts, these acts

75
00:04:13,600 --> 00:04:17,200
Speaker 3: of terror, that they wanted uh to uh launch drones,

76
00:04:17,279 --> 00:04:19,640
Speaker 3: whether it's from you know, from the sea or from

77
00:04:19,640 --> 00:04:22,720
Speaker 3: the south of our border. But none of none of

78
00:04:22,839 --> 00:04:25,480
Speaker 3: you reporting our scene says that they are going to

79
00:04:25,520 --> 00:04:28,400
Speaker 3: do it. In other words, that there's an imminent threat

80
00:04:28,480 --> 00:04:31,880
Speaker 3: of this. It seems more of a possibility than a probability.

81
00:04:31,960 --> 00:04:35,360
Speaker 2: So this would be launched presumably from a ship or

82
00:04:35,480 --> 00:04:37,760
Speaker 2: could it be they have sleeper cells and these will

83
00:04:37,800 --> 00:04:41,400
Speaker 2: be launched from inside inside here in Los Angeles.

84
00:04:41,400 --> 00:04:45,679
Speaker 3: Perhaps it could be. And that's where I think, Uh again,

85
00:04:45,839 --> 00:04:48,520
Speaker 3: you know, we don't have a lot of specificity, So

86
00:04:48,560 --> 00:04:51,479
Speaker 3: could be launched from a ship or a boat that

87
00:04:51,640 --> 00:04:54,520
Speaker 3: was pre positioned prior to the war. Uh. You know

88
00:04:54,560 --> 00:04:57,400
Speaker 3: that they brought these over. You know, the war was

89
00:04:57,440 --> 00:05:00,840
Speaker 3: not a surprise. So did Iran send a a ship

90
00:05:00,960 --> 00:05:03,680
Speaker 3: or boat that's either in our harbor or off the

91
00:05:03,680 --> 00:05:06,760
Speaker 3: coast of California and can want your drone from there.

92
00:05:07,400 --> 00:05:09,880
Speaker 3: Do they have a cell in the you know in

93
00:05:09,920 --> 00:05:12,760
Speaker 3: California somewhere that could want to sell I'm sorry, I

94
00:05:12,760 --> 00:05:15,159
Speaker 3: want your drone? Or do they have something south of

95
00:05:15,200 --> 00:05:17,800
Speaker 3: our border? Because I Ran and his power have been

96
00:05:17,839 --> 00:05:20,600
Speaker 3: operational south of our border for years and have been

97
00:05:20,600 --> 00:05:22,760
Speaker 3: a threat from down there, and we've been aware of that,

98
00:05:23,160 --> 00:05:25,839
Speaker 3: so you know, it really could come from any of

99
00:05:25,839 --> 00:05:29,159
Speaker 3: those three. The other issue is what type of drone.

100
00:05:29,400 --> 00:05:30,919
Speaker 3: Would it be the type of type of drone that

101
00:05:30,920 --> 00:05:35,279
Speaker 3: you've seen, you know in Iran, you know, attacking Israel

102
00:05:35,360 --> 00:05:38,479
Speaker 3: and the you know, the other states over there, or

103
00:05:38,560 --> 00:05:40,320
Speaker 3: is it more something that we have here in the

104
00:05:40,400 --> 00:05:44,680
Speaker 3: United States, you know, where whether it's your neighbor, a business,

105
00:05:44,800 --> 00:05:50,560
Speaker 3: or a you know, local government uses drones for business activities.

106
00:05:51,560 --> 00:05:53,760
Speaker 3: Is it more of a drone like that which would

107
00:05:53,839 --> 00:05:56,680
Speaker 3: not carry as large a payload, but it could actually

108
00:05:56,680 --> 00:06:00,279
Speaker 3: carry an ied and still be a danger if always

109
00:06:00,279 --> 00:06:01,280
Speaker 3: ever launched.

110
00:06:01,480 --> 00:06:04,880
Speaker 2: Right, Or it could be those big drones with the

111
00:06:04,920 --> 00:06:10,320
Speaker 2: red and green lights that you see in the sky.

112
00:06:08,960 --> 00:06:11,720
Speaker 3: Exactly the ones that uh, you know, uh, the Intel

113
00:06:11,720 --> 00:06:17,680
Speaker 3: agencies have used or other government agencies use for for

114
00:06:18,040 --> 00:06:21,160
Speaker 3: various uh you know type of work that they do. Uh.

115
00:06:21,240 --> 00:06:23,760
Speaker 3: And again you could put some type of I D

116
00:06:23,920 --> 00:06:26,800
Speaker 3: on there, and I think the the issue is almost

117
00:06:26,880 --> 00:06:30,719
Speaker 3: not that uh people would be injured. It would be

118
00:06:30,760 --> 00:06:33,960
Speaker 3: the actual act of a drone coming into the United

119
00:06:34,000 --> 00:06:38,080
Speaker 3: States and actually exploding some type of device that that

120
00:06:38,120 --> 00:06:41,839
Speaker 3: I think would be in of itself, you know, uh

121
00:06:41,920 --> 00:06:44,120
Speaker 3: you know, uh, something that we've never had.

122
00:06:44,279 --> 00:06:48,360
Speaker 2: And it's very difficult to track uh these these drones

123
00:06:48,480 --> 00:06:51,599
Speaker 2: or where they're being launched from, or their locations or

124
00:06:51,640 --> 00:06:54,520
Speaker 2: even a ship that's parked in harbor. I mean, is

125
00:06:54,520 --> 00:06:57,000
Speaker 2: is it nearly impossible to know for sure where these

126
00:06:57,120 --> 00:07:00,000
Speaker 2: might be and this could just happen in the blink

127
00:07:00,080 --> 00:07:00,520
Speaker 2: of an eye.

128
00:07:01,880 --> 00:07:05,159
Speaker 3: Yeah, the the there is so law enforcement, and I

129
00:07:05,160 --> 00:07:06,600
Speaker 3: think this is maybe one of the reasons why I

130
00:07:06,640 --> 00:07:10,120
Speaker 3: did go out to law enforcement, the JTTF, DHS. I'm

131
00:07:10,120 --> 00:07:14,120
Speaker 3: sure they're now working their sources, working their technical resources

132
00:07:14,280 --> 00:07:19,160
Speaker 3: to identify any uh boats, ships in the harbor that

133
00:07:19,400 --> 00:07:23,320
Speaker 3: might be suspicious, and using their resources to see if

134
00:07:23,360 --> 00:07:26,120
Speaker 3: there is any threat there. And I know that the

135
00:07:26,240 --> 00:07:31,080
Speaker 3: US government, through an inter an interagency, has a very

136
00:07:31,600 --> 00:07:35,720
Speaker 3: active anti drone program right now. Uh, they've used it

137
00:07:35,760 --> 00:07:39,880
Speaker 3: at sporting events and other types of events throughout the

138
00:07:40,000 --> 00:07:43,680
Speaker 3: United States. Uh and and they are getting better, but

139
00:07:43,680 --> 00:07:46,320
Speaker 3: but it's not perfect and there is still a lot

140
00:07:46,320 --> 00:07:47,880
Speaker 3: of work to be done on that side of the house.

141
00:07:48,280 --> 00:07:52,480
Speaker 2: I imagine there's a lot of anti terrorism security that's

142
00:07:52,520 --> 00:07:54,960
Speaker 2: going to be here in Los Angeles because of the oscars.

143
00:07:56,720 --> 00:07:59,760
Speaker 3: Oh yeah, during during the oscars. It's it's in fact,

144
00:07:59,760 --> 00:08:03,400
Speaker 3: I lead. It might even be classified as a national event,

145
00:08:03,760 --> 00:08:06,320
Speaker 3: you know, such as the you know, the Olympics, you know,

146
00:08:06,400 --> 00:08:09,880
Speaker 3: the super Bowl. You know, the super Bowl is exactly

147
00:08:09,880 --> 00:08:11,720
Speaker 3: it's gonna be one of those type of events. So

148
00:08:11,800 --> 00:08:16,320
Speaker 3: you will have uh DHS taking the lead, possibly through

149
00:08:16,320 --> 00:08:19,520
Speaker 3: the Secret Service, where they will uh man a you know,

150
00:08:19,760 --> 00:08:22,560
Speaker 3: not only the command post, but they'll have all different

151
00:08:22,640 --> 00:08:26,960
Speaker 3: resources out there to identify, uh, you know, any type

152
00:08:27,000 --> 00:08:34,040
Speaker 3: of threat where radiological, biological, ied, road wolves. You know,

153
00:08:34,080 --> 00:08:37,600
Speaker 3: they'll they'll have all the resources out there to do

154
00:08:37,640 --> 00:08:40,960
Speaker 3: what they can to protect uh, not only the oscars,

155
00:08:41,200 --> 00:08:44,680
Speaker 3: but anything associated or around the oscars. Because you know,

156
00:08:44,960 --> 00:08:47,360
Speaker 3: you can always target an event, but a lot of

157
00:08:47,360 --> 00:08:49,480
Speaker 3: the time you may want to even target the secondary

158
00:08:49,559 --> 00:08:52,920
Speaker 3: events surrounding it. But usually when when they classify this

159
00:08:52,960 --> 00:08:56,240
Speaker 3: as a national event. All those receive extra protection.

160
00:08:56,880 --> 00:09:00,720
Speaker 2: All Right, Rich Frankel, former Special Agent in charge FBI,

161
00:09:01,200 --> 00:09:03,560
Speaker 2: ABC News, thank you very much for coming on.

162
00:09:04,960 --> 00:09:05,880
Speaker 3: Thank you, have a great day.

163
00:09:05,920 --> 00:09:06,920
Speaker 1: All Right, We're gonna have more.

164
00:09:06,800 --> 00:09:08,760
Speaker 2: On this because Gavin Newsoen has spoken out, and you

165
00:09:08,800 --> 00:09:13,559
Speaker 2: know he's gonna be protecting us as well, right unless

166
00:09:13,640 --> 00:09:15,560
Speaker 2: unless he has a book tour commitment.

167
00:09:16,360 --> 00:09:17,160
Speaker 1: That is next.

168
00:09:18,360 --> 00:09:22,720
Speaker 4: You're listening to John Cobelt on demand from KFI AM

169
00:09:22,720 --> 00:09:23,280
Speaker 4: six forty.

170
00:09:24,720 --> 00:09:27,200
Speaker 2: Weistline is eight seven seven Moist staighty six eight seven

171
00:09:27,280 --> 00:09:30,400
Speaker 2: seven Moist eighty six or usually talkback figure on the

172
00:09:30,400 --> 00:09:37,200
Speaker 2: iHeartRadio app. So, the big story, as you've heard constantly today,

173
00:09:37,480 --> 00:09:40,480
Speaker 2: is that there were some intelligence the FBI picked up

174
00:09:40,520 --> 00:09:43,600
Speaker 2: on and other Drug Chairs and task Force, other agencies

175
00:09:43,880 --> 00:09:47,800
Speaker 2: that maybe the Iranians were or are planning a drone

176
00:09:47,800 --> 00:09:53,920
Speaker 2: strike on California, specifically Los Angeles and the police departments

177
00:09:53,920 --> 00:09:59,000
Speaker 2: were notified of this a few days ago. The government

178
00:09:59,040 --> 00:10:02,599
Speaker 2: got the information a few weeks ago in early February,

179
00:10:03,040 --> 00:10:05,560
Speaker 2: and then they decided to share it. Depending on what

180
00:10:05,640 --> 00:10:09,560
Speaker 2: story you read, there's conflicting terminology used whether the information

181
00:10:09,720 --> 00:10:14,440
Speaker 2: is credible or not. But there is information that the

182
00:10:14,480 --> 00:10:17,960
Speaker 2: intelligence source is picked up. Whether they it's real or not,

183
00:10:18,120 --> 00:10:20,679
Speaker 2: they don't know for sure. I mean, there's no specific

184
00:10:21,040 --> 00:10:23,720
Speaker 2: intelligence that says, hey, it's gonna happen at three o'clock,

185
00:10:24,240 --> 00:10:27,240
Speaker 2: you know on Friday on Pikle Boulevard. There's no such thing.

186
00:10:27,920 --> 00:10:31,000
Speaker 2: We do have the oscars obviously coming up this weekend.

187
00:10:31,080 --> 00:10:33,120
Speaker 2: I was in Hollywood last night and I saw a

188
00:10:33,120 --> 00:10:38,000
Speaker 2: lot of the fencing up and the road closures and

189
00:10:38,760 --> 00:10:41,760
Speaker 2: a lot of a lot of security and police walking around,

190
00:10:41,880 --> 00:10:45,080
Speaker 2: and you can't help but think it's like, yeah, the war.

191
00:10:45,120 --> 00:10:47,319
Speaker 2: In the back of your mind, it's like wow, Yeah,

192
00:10:47,559 --> 00:10:49,680
Speaker 2: that looked real to me, that this place could be

193
00:10:49,679 --> 00:10:50,160
Speaker 2: a target.

194
00:10:51,240 --> 00:10:52,240
Speaker 1: And I'm not saying it is.

195
00:10:52,320 --> 00:10:54,679
Speaker 2: I'm just saying that's the little thut bubble in my

196
00:10:54,720 --> 00:10:56,640
Speaker 2: head as I was walking around in Hollywood last night

197
00:10:56,640 --> 00:11:02,560
Speaker 2: for a short time. And we are an idiot of

198
00:11:02,600 --> 00:11:06,880
Speaker 2: a governor. You Havevin Newsom, He's going through in every

199
00:11:06,880 --> 00:11:12,760
Speaker 2: interview blaming Trump. Kevin Newsom has no idea what the

200
00:11:12,800 --> 00:11:17,400
Speaker 2: iron threat is. I'm going to go with they were

201
00:11:17,400 --> 00:11:20,680
Speaker 2: developing a nuclear weapon and they wanted to use it.

202
00:11:21,520 --> 00:11:25,120
Speaker 2: That's why Trump did what he could to wipe out

203
00:11:25,120 --> 00:11:29,640
Speaker 2: that facility last summer, and they have been trying to

204
00:11:29,640 --> 00:11:34,920
Speaker 2: get the Iranians to back off all their nuclear possibilities,

205
00:11:35,640 --> 00:11:40,439
Speaker 2: to stop all production of nuclear weapons and uranium, the

206
00:11:40,480 --> 00:11:43,240
Speaker 2: whole bit, and they won't. And the reason they won't

207
00:11:43,320 --> 00:11:45,320
Speaker 2: is because they do want to have nuclear weapons and

208
00:11:45,360 --> 00:11:48,160
Speaker 2: they want to use them. That's good enough for me

209
00:11:49,400 --> 00:11:52,120
Speaker 2: if it seems like the number one reason we're there

210
00:11:52,160 --> 00:11:55,040
Speaker 2: and we should be there, is to destroy that government

211
00:11:55,400 --> 00:11:59,120
Speaker 2: since they can't take a hint and shut down their

212
00:11:59,160 --> 00:12:02,240
Speaker 2: nuclear program, and for all they don't get one. They're

213
00:12:02,280 --> 00:12:07,000
Speaker 2: too crazy. It's not fair, Fine, not fair.

214
00:12:08,120 --> 00:12:08,680
Speaker 1: You're the one.

215
00:12:09,200 --> 00:12:12,400
Speaker 2: They've been screaming death to America for forty seven years.

216
00:12:12,720 --> 00:12:16,040
Speaker 2: And I see this little toddler Newsom blaming Trump for

217
00:12:16,080 --> 00:12:20,520
Speaker 2: the war. God God help us if Newsom was in

218
00:12:20,600 --> 00:12:26,000
Speaker 2: charge of our fallen foreign policy. This is what you

219
00:12:26,160 --> 00:12:29,720
Speaker 2: do when you have a When you have a regime

220
00:12:29,800 --> 00:12:33,360
Speaker 2: that yells death to America for almost fifty years and

221
00:12:33,520 --> 00:12:37,840
Speaker 2: is financed all the horrible terrorism they financed around the world.

222
00:12:37,880 --> 00:12:42,040
Speaker 2: They are the number one purveyor of terrorism in the

223
00:12:42,040 --> 00:12:46,000
Speaker 2: world for almost a half a century. Good enough reason

224
00:12:46,320 --> 00:12:49,800
Speaker 2: to just bomb the crap out of them until they

225
00:12:49,840 --> 00:12:54,199
Speaker 2: surrender unconditional surrender. Yes, that's exactly enough of these people.

226
00:12:54,440 --> 00:12:56,360
Speaker 2: It should have been done ten years ago, this should

227
00:12:56,360 --> 00:12:58,400
Speaker 2: have been done fifty years ago. Never should have put

228
00:12:58,480 --> 00:13:01,000
Speaker 2: up with this stuff. And of course they're going to

229
00:13:01,040 --> 00:13:04,880
Speaker 2: try some kind of retaliation, but they want to go

230
00:13:04,920 --> 00:13:07,800
Speaker 2: get a nuclear weapon. So whatever we have to do,

231
00:13:07,840 --> 00:13:09,640
Speaker 2: we have to do. And I think that's what an

232
00:13:09,640 --> 00:13:15,880
Speaker 2: adult would understand. Upson's not an adult. And oh and

233
00:13:15,920 --> 00:13:18,600
Speaker 2: by the way, the reason we could have this drone

234
00:13:18,679 --> 00:13:21,000
Speaker 2: danger is because god knows how many Iranian terrorists are

235
00:13:21,040 --> 00:13:25,040
Speaker 2: in California. I mean, we let ten million people over

236
00:13:25,040 --> 00:13:27,440
Speaker 2: the border during the Biden years, right, ten million people.

237
00:13:27,640 --> 00:13:29,280
Speaker 1: I think there's a few terrorists in there.

238
00:13:29,679 --> 00:13:31,640
Speaker 2: I think there's a chance some of them came to

239
00:13:31,679 --> 00:13:35,840
Speaker 2: California because the terrorists would get free healthcare here in California.

240
00:13:36,000 --> 00:13:41,840
Speaker 2: Remember they get free medical in addition to many other benefits.

241
00:13:41,920 --> 00:13:45,760
Speaker 2: But why not if you're a terrorist, once you've gone

242
00:13:45,800 --> 00:13:48,760
Speaker 2: through the wide open border, make your way to Los Angeles,

243
00:13:49,040 --> 00:13:53,200
Speaker 2: blend in and you know, in case you maybe in

244
00:13:53,240 --> 00:13:55,120
Speaker 2: case you're making an ied and it goes off and

245
00:13:55,120 --> 00:13:57,040
Speaker 2: blows your arm, blows.

246
00:13:56,760 --> 00:13:59,320
Speaker 1: Your arm away, well at least you'll get.

247
00:13:59,160 --> 00:14:02,400
Speaker 2: The California attack payers to pay for your medical bills

248
00:14:03,320 --> 00:14:07,439
Speaker 2: through the free medical I mean, this guy is issuing criticism.

249
00:14:07,840 --> 00:14:12,960
Speaker 2: This guy issued an invitation to all the illegal aliens,

250
00:14:13,720 --> 00:14:16,640
Speaker 2: and this guy is willing to pay the medical bills

251
00:14:16,800 --> 00:14:21,160
Speaker 2: for these illegal alien terrorists, these Iranian terrorists. Let's play

252
00:14:21,200 --> 00:14:24,720
Speaker 2: cut six. Here's his response to his San Francisco Chronicle

253
00:14:24,800 --> 00:14:26,360
Speaker 2: reporter Sophia balalayk this.

254
00:14:26,400 --> 00:14:29,040
Speaker 5: Relates to the broaduct concern as it relates to drone strikes.

255
00:14:29,080 --> 00:14:32,840
Speaker 5: We're you know, we've been aware of that information. We've

256
00:14:32,880 --> 00:14:35,720
Speaker 5: been working collaboratively through the SOCK which we established right

257
00:14:35,760 --> 00:14:39,800
Speaker 5: after the war began, the State Operations Center, working with

258
00:14:39,840 --> 00:14:42,440
Speaker 5: the Office Emergency Service, but also working locally to make

259
00:14:42,480 --> 00:14:45,760
Speaker 5: sure we transmit any information that we have received. And

260
00:14:45,760 --> 00:14:48,360
Speaker 5: we're aware of that which has been reported I think

261
00:14:48,440 --> 00:14:51,760
Speaker 5: by ABC seven. We're aware of that information and we

262
00:14:51,880 --> 00:14:53,120
Speaker 5: transfer that information.

263
00:14:53,280 --> 00:14:56,840
Speaker 1: All right, You've got nothing.

264
00:14:57,000 --> 00:15:01,120
Speaker 2: Yes, you're going to transfer information right because because the

265
00:15:01,200 --> 00:15:03,480
Speaker 2: new iatola is going to call Gavin Newsom and let

266
00:15:03,560 --> 00:15:07,640
Speaker 2: him know if his terrorists are in town ready to

267
00:15:07,800 --> 00:15:14,000
Speaker 2: blow up the oscars. Good lord, when we come back.

268
00:15:15,080 --> 00:15:20,480
Speaker 2: The other idiot, Karen Bash, there's a poll Emerson College

269
00:15:20,840 --> 00:15:23,240
Speaker 2: about the June primary. Boy, this is coming up soon.

270
00:15:23,280 --> 00:15:26,160

271
00:15:26,240 --> 00:15:29,160
Speaker 2: doing in the poll, who's the best candidate against her?

272
00:15:29,560 --> 00:15:33,280
Speaker 2: And how popular is she? We have answers to all

273
00:15:33,280 --> 00:15:36,080

278
00:15:49,280 --> 00:15:50,280
Speaker 1: If I had known.

279
00:15:50,720 --> 00:15:53,080
Speaker 5: John said that he's going to get me a present

280
00:15:53,240 --> 00:15:54,600
Speaker 5: for the tenth anniversary.

281
00:15:54,680 --> 00:15:57,320
Speaker 1: The tenth. Yeah, right, I don't know what is ten?

282
00:15:57,440 --> 00:15:59,960
Speaker 1: What is the uh? I hope it's not gold.

283
00:16:00,920 --> 00:16:05,560
Speaker 4: You're listening to John Cobel's on demand from KFI AM.

284
00:16:05,280 --> 00:16:08,680
Speaker 2: Six forty John Cobelt Show on from three to six.

285
00:16:09,080 --> 00:16:13,840
Speaker 2: Podcast is after six John Cobelt's show on demand Emerson College.

286
00:16:14,600 --> 00:16:17,960
Speaker 1: As this pole about Karen Bass.

287
00:16:18,960 --> 00:16:22,000
Speaker 2: About well about the mayor's race which is coming up

288
00:16:22,040 --> 00:16:25,720
Speaker 2: on June the second.

289
00:16:24,720 --> 00:16:28,720
Speaker 1: And she has nineteen and a half.

290
00:16:28,520 --> 00:16:33,120
Speaker 2: Percent, which is really really really low for an incumbent,

291
00:16:35,240 --> 00:16:39,680
Speaker 2: and in second place is Spencer Pratt with about ten percent,

292
00:16:41,040 --> 00:16:46,000
Speaker 2: and that communist Nitthia Rahman is nine percent. There's a

293
00:16:46,040 --> 00:16:49,400
Speaker 2: business entrepreneur, Adam Miller from the West Side, He's at

294
00:16:49,480 --> 00:16:54,440
Speaker 2: four percent, and then another communist, Ray Huang, a woman

295
00:16:54,640 --> 00:17:01,520
Speaker 2: at three percent, and Spencer Pratt is looks like is

296
00:17:01,560 --> 00:17:05,439
Speaker 2: going to be the only way out of this. She

297
00:17:05,560 --> 00:17:10,000
Speaker 2: can be beat because she only has nineteen percent support

298
00:17:10,359 --> 00:17:15,359
Speaker 2: and twenty her approval rating is only twenty four percent,

299
00:17:16,880 --> 00:17:20,240
Speaker 2: So that's that means most people, most people hate her,

300
00:17:22,240 --> 00:17:24,640
Speaker 2: but you know, they don't look, they don't they don't

301
00:17:24,640 --> 00:17:26,960
Speaker 2: think there's an alternative, so they don't know what to do.

302
00:17:28,240 --> 00:17:30,879
Speaker 2: So it's up to Spencer Pratt to run a campaign

303
00:17:30,920 --> 00:17:34,399
Speaker 2: that makes people comfortable with him. And yeah, I know

304
00:17:34,440 --> 00:17:37,400
Speaker 2: he's a reality star and you could point to this

305
00:17:37,520 --> 00:17:42,080
Speaker 2: and that incidents in his career, it doesn't matter. We're

306
00:17:42,080 --> 00:17:48,359
Speaker 2: in an emergency situation here. Karen Bass actually abandoned the

307
00:17:48,400 --> 00:17:51,399
Speaker 2: city in the middle of high wind and high fire

308
00:17:51,440 --> 00:17:56,360
Speaker 2: warnings and we lost a whole section of town. And

309
00:17:56,720 --> 00:18:02,280
Speaker 2: she has lied and covered up her responsible She defunded

310
00:18:02,440 --> 00:18:06,680
Speaker 2: the fire department, she defunded the police department, She blew

311
00:18:06,760 --> 00:18:10,600
Speaker 2: billions of dollars of homeless money, and then hired fifteen

312
00:18:10,680 --> 00:18:13,760
Speaker 2: lawyers so that she wouldn't have to testify about where

313
00:18:13,760 --> 00:18:14,879
Speaker 2: it went in court.

314
00:18:15,840 --> 00:18:20,800
Speaker 1: That's enough. That is enough. I don't care why you

315
00:18:20,960 --> 00:18:22,760
Speaker 1: like her. I don't care if you like her smile

316
00:18:23,680 --> 00:18:27,200
Speaker 1: or what you know her her hair. I don't care.

317
00:18:28,320 --> 00:18:31,800
Speaker 2: She abandoned the city when there were all these terrible

318
00:18:32,000 --> 00:18:35,040
Speaker 2: fire and wind warnings, and she's done nothing but lie

319
00:18:35,560 --> 00:18:36,360
Speaker 2: and cover up.

320
00:18:37,200 --> 00:18:37,800
Speaker 1: That's enough.

321
00:18:38,160 --> 00:18:40,639
Speaker 2: And then you look at what what sheentleman hire. She

322
00:18:40,840 --> 00:18:45,280
Speaker 2: defunded the fire and police department. No out, homeless people

323
00:18:45,320 --> 00:18:49,879
Speaker 2: still running amok. She's got forty two thousand homeless people

324
00:18:50,600 --> 00:18:51,960
Speaker 2: out in the streets.

325
00:18:52,320 --> 00:18:54,960
Speaker 1: Oh you know what it used to be forty five thousand.

326
00:18:55,040 --> 00:19:01,840
Speaker 2: It's out mental patience and vagrants and gang members and

327
00:19:01,960 --> 00:19:05,639
Speaker 2: criminals and our sits. I mean, did you see what

328
00:19:05,680 --> 00:19:08,000
Speaker 2: happened in downtown? I gotta get that story for later.

329
00:19:08,560 --> 00:19:16,080
Speaker 2: In downtown, all the criminals and lunatics piled into a

330
00:19:16,160 --> 00:19:19,560
Speaker 2: high end apartment building not far from the Crypto Arena

331
00:19:20,240 --> 00:19:23,359
Speaker 2: that was supposed to be a really nice neighborhood where

332
00:19:24,480 --> 00:19:26,840
Speaker 2: people with a little bit of money could enjoy these

333
00:19:26,920 --> 00:19:28,080
Speaker 2: luxury apartments.

334
00:19:28,760 --> 00:19:30,040
Speaker 1: And here comes what.

335
00:19:31,520 --> 00:19:34,040
Speaker 2: Like all the sewage of the city starts spilling in,

336
00:19:34,640 --> 00:19:39,240
Speaker 2: and they're riding inside the apartment apartment building. Enough of this,

337
00:19:39,480 --> 00:19:42,879
Speaker 2: enough the chaos. She has no idea what she's doing.

338
00:19:43,720 --> 00:19:45,919
Speaker 2: I don't want to talk about her politics or it

339
00:19:45,960 --> 00:19:51,080
Speaker 2: doesn't matter. She's incompetent, she's overwhelmed. She's a ridiculous figure.

340
00:19:51,440 --> 00:19:56,640
Speaker 2: She's an absolutely ridiculous figure. So Spencer Pratt, I'm there,

341
00:19:57,080 --> 00:19:59,199
Speaker 2: let's go, because we aren't going to go with the

342
00:19:59,200 --> 00:20:03,480
Speaker 2: communist Ny Ramen or the other communist Ray Hung. And

343
00:20:03,840 --> 00:20:06,000
Speaker 2: you know, i'd listen to Adam Miller, But does he

344
00:20:06,040 --> 00:20:07,639
Speaker 2: have any money to run? Is anybody ever going to

345
00:20:07,720 --> 00:20:08,240
Speaker 2: know who he is?

346
00:20:09,040 --> 00:20:09,479
Speaker 1: I don't know.

347
00:20:09,760 --> 00:20:12,159
Speaker 2: I've never heard him speak. We got we got two

348
00:20:12,200 --> 00:20:16,480
Speaker 2: and a half months. Everything I've heard just about everything.

349
00:20:16,480 --> 00:20:21,720
Speaker 2: I've heard Spencer Pratt say he's been right, And actually

350
00:20:21,760 --> 00:20:24,440
Speaker 2: I don't carry I don't even care if he doesn't

351
00:20:24,440 --> 00:20:29,159
Speaker 2: have experience. Look at what experience has got us. Experience

352
00:20:29,240 --> 00:20:31,520
Speaker 2: got us a lot of carry bass and a lot

353
00:20:31,520 --> 00:20:32,120
Speaker 2: of avenues.

354
00:20:33,760 --> 00:20:35,199
Speaker 1: It's whether you have a brain or not.

355
00:20:36,119 --> 00:20:39,120
Speaker 2: It's whether you can it's whether when you know what,

356
00:20:39,640 --> 00:20:43,520
Speaker 2: you can identify what obviously needs to be done to

357
00:20:43,600 --> 00:20:46,720
Speaker 2: have a civilized society. And you need a funded fire

358
00:20:46,800 --> 00:20:51,760
Speaker 2: department and a funded police department, and you need, when

359
00:20:51,760 --> 00:20:54,199
Speaker 2: you have these high wind and high fire warnings, to

360
00:20:54,280 --> 00:20:58,320
Speaker 2: be on that case with a meeting every hour. And

361
00:20:58,400 --> 00:21:04,040
Speaker 2: after the first fire, she should have said, Hey, we're

362
00:21:04,040 --> 00:21:05,560
Speaker 2: gonna have some fire crews up there.

363
00:21:05,760 --> 00:21:07,800
Speaker 1: It's getting it's good. They're gonna be up there.

364
00:21:07,840 --> 00:21:10,560
Speaker 2: They're gonna be up there for the whole week or

365
00:21:10,600 --> 00:21:12,879
Speaker 2: ten days, however long these winds blow. That's what she

366
00:21:12,920 --> 00:21:17,280
Speaker 2: should have done instead of drinking in Gotta. For God's sakes,

367
00:21:19,280 --> 00:21:22,960
Speaker 2: she's knocking back cocktails in Gotta while the whole palisades

368
00:21:22,960 --> 00:21:25,119
Speaker 2: burn and it's got the nerve to run for reelection.

369
00:21:26,480 --> 00:21:32,120
Speaker 2: Good lord, this is insanity. So Spencer Pratt is right

370
00:21:32,160 --> 00:21:36,000
Speaker 2: on with all the stuff. He says, not see anybody else.

371
00:21:38,000 --> 00:21:38,920
Speaker 1: But you can't.

372
00:21:39,000 --> 00:21:44,720
Speaker 2: You can't bring caring bass back. I'm the Olympics coming here.

373
00:21:47,040 --> 00:21:51,320
Speaker 2: I mean, I was at the airport the other day twice.

374
00:21:52,280 --> 00:21:56,240
Speaker 2: That's that's a disaster. That that the stupid people mover

375
00:21:56,359 --> 00:21:58,439
Speaker 2: is stock. It's built, it's on a track, and it

376
00:21:58,520 --> 00:22:00,680
Speaker 2: sits there. I saw it just since doesn't move.

377
00:22:01,280 --> 00:22:01,639
Speaker 3: Howk up?

378
00:22:01,680 --> 00:22:04,080
Speaker 2: All the other people movers at all the other airports

379
00:22:04,080 --> 00:22:05,720
Speaker 2: I've been to, they move, They go up and down

380
00:22:05,720 --> 00:22:08,280
Speaker 2: and up and down every ten minutes, taking people from

381
00:22:08,320 --> 00:22:11,359
Speaker 2: parking garages and the rental car centers and the hotels

382
00:22:11,400 --> 00:22:11,760
Speaker 2: and back.

383
00:22:12,920 --> 00:22:13,240
Speaker 3: I I.

384
00:22:13,400 --> 00:22:15,240
Speaker 1: You know this has got to end. This got end.

385
00:22:15,240 --> 00:22:18,359
Speaker 2: No more Newsome, no more Bass New Era. All right,

Speaker 4: You're listening to John Cobelts on demand from KFI Am sixty.

394
00:22:54,359 --> 00:22:56,960
Speaker 2: John cobelt Show continues. We're on every day from three

395
00:22:57,200 --> 00:23:00,520
Speaker 2: until six and then after six o'clock. You missed it anything, well,

396
00:23:00,560 --> 00:23:02,960
Speaker 2: that's what the podcast is for. John cobelt Show on demand,

397
00:23:03,000 --> 00:23:07,080
Speaker 2: same as the radio show. We have the most expensive

398
00:23:07,160 --> 00:23:11,520
Speaker 2: gasoline again in California, like we always do, and the

399
00:23:11,560 --> 00:23:15,639
Speaker 2: price went up again today. It's much higher than the

400
00:23:15,640 --> 00:23:18,199
Speaker 2: rest of the country and we're going to talk with

401
00:23:18,280 --> 00:23:22,000
Speaker 2: Alex Stone from ABC News to see exactly how much

402
00:23:22,080 --> 00:23:22,560
Speaker 2: right now?

403
00:23:22,960 --> 00:23:25,840
Speaker 1: How are you, Alex well doing well?

404
00:23:25,960 --> 00:23:28,679
Speaker 6: Minus Well, we're all paying for gas, those of us

405
00:23:28,680 --> 00:23:31,400
Speaker 6: who are putting gas in our tanks, and you look

406
00:23:31,440 --> 00:23:33,240
Speaker 6: at what the rest of the country is paying and

407
00:23:33,680 --> 00:23:36,520
Speaker 6: when we're paying, and it just doesn't seem fair. And

408
00:23:36,720 --> 00:23:38,359
Speaker 6: it never has seen that way, but you look at

409
00:23:38,359 --> 00:23:41,240
Speaker 6: times like this and it's a big difference. The average

410
00:23:41,280 --> 00:23:44,399
Speaker 6: price right now nationwide, is it three fifty nine a gallon?

411
00:23:44,440 --> 00:23:47,080
Speaker 6: Can you imagine if we were paying three fifty nine

412
00:23:47,080 --> 00:23:49,600
Speaker 6: a gallon, it would be amazing. That would be a

413
00:23:49,600 --> 00:23:52,879
Speaker 6: good day. And it's it's not that even when times

414
00:23:52,880 --> 00:23:55,800
Speaker 6: are good and prices are low, but prices have been

415
00:23:55,800 --> 00:23:58,840
Speaker 6: going up in some cases by the hour since the

416
00:23:59,200 --> 00:24:02,399
Speaker 6: fighting in era, and of course in California we've got

417
00:24:02,600 --> 00:24:05,680
Speaker 6: all the other aspects on it of taxes and road

418
00:24:05,680 --> 00:24:08,960
Speaker 6: improvement things and all of that. But oil did retreat

419
00:24:09,040 --> 00:24:11,520
Speaker 6: a bit, John the eighty six dollars right around eighty

420
00:24:11,520 --> 00:24:14,560
Speaker 6: six dollars a barrel, So at least for now, it

421
00:24:14,640 --> 00:24:17,159
Speaker 6: seems like that we maybe had a bit of a

422
00:24:17,200 --> 00:24:20,120
Speaker 6: plateau for a while. They'll probably end up a little

423
00:24:20,119 --> 00:24:22,919
Speaker 6: bit more catching up to where oil is stabilizing, but

424
00:24:23,119 --> 00:24:24,040
Speaker 6: it was off over.

425
00:24:23,880 --> 00:24:25,480
Speaker 1: One hundred and ten a few days ago.

426
00:24:26,119 --> 00:24:28,840
Speaker 6: That's right, and now prices aren't likely going to go

427
00:24:28,920 --> 00:24:32,280
Speaker 6: down anytime soon. They'll hopefully be evening out. I'm just

428
00:24:32,320 --> 00:24:34,520
Speaker 6: looking at what gas Buddy is saying right now the

429
00:24:34,560 --> 00:24:37,600
Speaker 6: average prices, So San Francisco, the average price is five

430
00:24:37,640 --> 00:24:42,480
Speaker 6: dollars sixty cents a gallon LA five thirty six as

431
00:24:42,520 --> 00:24:46,280
Speaker 6: of today San Diego five thirty four. And yeah, of

432
00:24:46,359 --> 00:24:48,840
Speaker 6: course you've always got the bonkers ones like the one

433
00:24:48,880 --> 00:24:51,359
Speaker 6: downtown and the one in Beverly Hills that are like

434
00:24:51,440 --> 00:24:54,879
Speaker 6: eight or nine dollars a gallon. But today the emergency

435
00:24:54,920 --> 00:24:57,760
Speaker 6: oil reserves are now being released to try to ease

436
00:24:57,800 --> 00:25:01,359
Speaker 6: this a bit. The last time that the International Energy

437
00:25:01,400 --> 00:25:05,280
Speaker 6: Agency released the emergency stockpile was in twenty twenty two

438
00:25:05,480 --> 00:25:09,280
Speaker 6: after Russia went into Ukraine and so thirty two countries.

439
00:25:09,400 --> 00:25:12,320
Speaker 6: They're going to release the largest amount of oil out

440
00:25:12,359 --> 00:25:16,520
Speaker 6: of the reserves ever in history. And the President said

441
00:25:16,760 --> 00:25:18,720
Speaker 6: that he thinks prices are going to begin going down,

442
00:25:18,720 --> 00:25:21,359
Speaker 6: but the head of the International Energy Agency said that

443
00:25:21,680 --> 00:25:23,760
Speaker 6: they're hoping that this is going to have that effect.

444
00:25:23,840 --> 00:25:27,520
Speaker 6: But still we're up over fifty cents a gallon in

445
00:25:27,640 --> 00:25:30,200
Speaker 6: just the past week, and they've been going up every day.

446
00:25:30,800 --> 00:25:33,160
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean I heard that. Well, it's a lot

447
00:25:33,160 --> 00:25:35,919
Speaker 2: of oil. It's a big number that they're releasing in

448
00:25:36,000 --> 00:25:39,920
Speaker 2: terms of barrels, it's about four days worth of oil

449
00:25:40,000 --> 00:25:43,280
Speaker 2: that the world consumes.

450
00:25:43,840 --> 00:25:46,200
Speaker 6: Yeah, well, that's typically how it goes. It always makes

451
00:25:46,280 --> 00:25:49,520
Speaker 6: big headlines whenever the oil reserves are released, and then

452
00:25:49,560 --> 00:25:52,239
Speaker 6: you say, well, it's really not that much oil. It

453
00:25:52,240 --> 00:25:55,840
Speaker 6: may have a slight impact, and it sounds like, at

454
00:25:55,920 --> 00:25:57,120
Speaker 6: least politically.

455
00:25:57,200 --> 00:25:59,560
Speaker 1: It'll get us to Sunday. That's about it.

456
00:25:59,680 --> 00:25:59,920
Speaker 3: Yeah.

457
00:26:00,480 --> 00:26:02,360
Speaker 6: Yeah, it doesn't do a lot of good past that point.

458
00:26:02,359 --> 00:26:04,359
Speaker 6: The other thing is we did see oil prices plummet

459
00:26:04,440 --> 00:26:07,960
Speaker 6: yesterday when the Energy Secretary, Chris Wright, he went on

460
00:26:08,160 --> 00:26:10,840
Speaker 6: social media and or at least now they're blaming a

461
00:26:10,880 --> 00:26:13,240
Speaker 6: staffer for it, but on social media on his account

462
00:26:13,359 --> 00:26:17,320
Speaker 6: that saying that the US Navy had successfully escorted a

463
00:26:17,359 --> 00:26:20,000
Speaker 6: tanker through the Straight of hor Moves but that didn't happen.

464
00:26:20,240 --> 00:26:22,320
Speaker 6: The White House had to come out and say that

465
00:26:22,320 --> 00:26:25,399
Speaker 6: that was wrong. They blamed a staffer for putting that up.

466
00:26:25,400 --> 00:26:28,440
Speaker 6: They deleted the post and then the oil prices came

467
00:26:28,480 --> 00:26:30,240
Speaker 6: back up a bit, So it just shows you a

468
00:26:30,359 --> 00:26:33,919
Speaker 6: volatile everything is. All it takes is one message on

469
00:26:34,200 --> 00:26:35,720
Speaker 6: X and all of a sudden, prices plummet.

470
00:26:35,800 --> 00:26:38,800
Speaker 2: One idiot in the office posts a false story and

471
00:26:38,840 --> 00:26:40,600
Speaker 2: the world oil prices go up.

472
00:26:41,359 --> 00:26:44,600
Speaker 6: Absolutely we're down in this case because the thinking was

473
00:26:44,720 --> 00:26:47,080
Speaker 6: that a vessel had gotten through the Straight of hor

474
00:26:47,119 --> 00:26:49,800
Speaker 6: Moves and that we were getting oil flowing again, where

475
00:26:49,840 --> 00:26:52,720
Speaker 6: twenty percent of the world's oil comes through there, and

476
00:26:52,760 --> 00:26:55,440
Speaker 6: then all of a sudden, the oil prices globally taken

477
00:26:55,440 --> 00:26:58,399
Speaker 6: O's dive and since then they've gone back up. And

478
00:26:58,440 --> 00:27:01,480
Speaker 6: that's look at the straight over moves that we have

479
00:27:01,560 --> 00:27:04,119
Speaker 6: not been able to get anybody through there, that the

480
00:27:04,200 --> 00:27:07,440
Speaker 6: Navy has not done that. The President has said that

481
00:27:07,440 --> 00:27:10,560
Speaker 6: that the ships need to go through on their own

482
00:27:10,760 --> 00:27:13,439
Speaker 6: and be tough and get through there. But there were

483
00:27:13,440 --> 00:27:15,960
Speaker 6: two ships today that they reported being attacked trying to

484
00:27:16,000 --> 00:27:18,240
Speaker 6: go through. There are the reports that Iron is laying

485
00:27:18,280 --> 00:27:22,159
Speaker 6: minds through there. We're now hitting their mind laying ships

486
00:27:22,240 --> 00:27:24,600
Speaker 6: if that's in fact what they are. And Iran has

487
00:27:24,640 --> 00:27:26,639
Speaker 6: said that any ship that tries to go through right

488
00:27:26,640 --> 00:27:28,680
Speaker 6: now is going to be attacked, so it would be

489
00:27:28,720 --> 00:27:32,200
Speaker 6: hard to convince a captain and the crew at this

490
00:27:32,240 --> 00:27:34,000
Speaker 6: point that it's safe to go through there.

491
00:27:34,600 --> 00:27:36,919
Speaker 1: All right, well, thank you very much, Alex.

492
00:27:38,160 --> 00:27:40,119
Speaker 6: And right as I'm talking to you, Iran has just

493
00:27:40,200 --> 00:27:42,560
Speaker 6: said to get ready for two hundred dollars a barrel.

494
00:27:42,720 --> 00:27:43,360
Speaker 6: So there you go.

495
00:27:43,680 --> 00:27:45,080
Speaker 1: Well, how are they going to do that.

496
00:27:46,320 --> 00:27:48,320
Speaker 6: A good question. But but they're telling that that that

497
00:27:48,400 --> 00:27:50,640
Speaker 6: is the statement that they just put out, you're ready

498
00:27:50,680 --> 00:27:52,000
Speaker 6: for two hundred dollars a barrel.

499
00:27:52,040 --> 00:27:54,359
Speaker 1: I'm going to go out now and sell up. I

500
00:27:54,359 --> 00:27:54,920
Speaker 1: don't know about you.

501
00:27:55,320 --> 00:27:57,600
Speaker 6: That good idea, good idea, all right, Alex Stone.

Speaker 2: and also there's a third horrible person being released by

507
00:28:18,000 --> 00:28:21,159
Speaker 2: the Pearle Board, a third one. So we'll tell you

508
00:28:21,240 --> 00:28:24,320
Speaker 2: all about it, and we'll talk to State Senator Susette
