Have you heard about this? 186 00:09:25,720 --> 00:09:29,000 Speaker 1: Did you hear see you do? A story? 187 00:09:29,080 --> 00:09:31,040 Speaker 2: Just once or twice, and still three quarters of the 188 00:09:31,040 --> 00:09:34,120 Speaker 2: audience hasn't heard it. It broke in the last week 189 00:09:34,559 --> 00:09:39,600 Speaker 2: that the state four hundred and fifty million dollars they 190 00:09:39,600 --> 00:09:41,360 Speaker 2: spent on a new nine to one to one system 191 00:09:41,600 --> 00:09:44,120 Speaker 2: seven years it took them to build it. 192 00:09:44,120 --> 00:09:47,760 Speaker 1: It doesn't work at all, None of it works. 193 00:09:48,000 --> 00:09:50,000 Speaker 2: They're going to have to do it all over again 194 00:09:50,400 --> 00:09:53,480 Speaker 2: and probably spend another four hundred and fifty million dollars. 195 00:09:54,400 --> 00:09:57,360 Speaker 2: This lady's eyes are bugging out here. You look, you 196 00:09:57,400 --> 00:09:58,160 Speaker 2: look distressed. 197 00:09:58,880 --> 00:09:59,800 Speaker 1: You distressing. 198 00:10:00,320 --> 00:10:03,240 Speaker 2: This is true, and so there's a every day there's 199 00:10:03,280 --> 00:10:07,199 Speaker 2: been a new story on this. And Dan Walters has 200 00:10:07,240 --> 00:10:11,440 Speaker 2: a piece in calmatters dot org and explains, along with 201 00:10:11,480 --> 00:10:14,560 Speaker 2: the sacrament of be what happened came had four hundred 202 00:10:14,559 --> 00:10:16,640 Speaker 2: and fifty It turns out our nine to one one 203 00:10:16,720 --> 00:10:21,760 Speaker 2: system is from the nineteen seventies. The nineteen seventies, so 204 00:10:21,800 --> 00:10:25,640 Speaker 2: we're talking about fifty year old technology. Now, this is 205 00:10:25,679 --> 00:10:30,480 Speaker 2: the technology capital of the universe. We have more technology 206 00:10:30,520 --> 00:10:34,840 Speaker 2: companies that have created the modern world than the rest 207 00:10:34,840 --> 00:10:37,480 Speaker 2: of the world combined. And they can't build a nine 208 00:10:37,559 --> 00:10:41,360 Speaker 2: one one system. So we have fifty year old technology. 209 00:10:41,800 --> 00:10:45,920 Speaker 2: And in twenty nineteen, here's an exact Newsom quote. During 210 00:10:45,920 --> 00:10:49,480 Speaker 2: my first week in office, I proposed making crucial updates 211 00:10:49,480 --> 00:10:53,040 Speaker 2: to modernize our antiquated nine one one system. The idea 212 00:10:53,080 --> 00:10:56,280 Speaker 2: that it's twenty nineteen, and we're using analog systems designed 213 00:10:56,280 --> 00:10:56,920 Speaker 2: decades ago. 214 00:10:57,160 --> 00:11:00,120 Speaker 1: Is astounding. We need to make investments. 215 00:10:59,520 --> 00:11:02,360 Speaker 2: To make sure the technology aligns with devices people are 216 00:11:02,440 --> 00:11:06,439 Speaker 2: using in their daily lives. So they spent four hundred 217 00:11:06,440 --> 00:11:08,760 Speaker 2: and fifty million dollars, but they spent it on a 218 00:11:08,800 --> 00:11:12,079 Speaker 2: new idea that, by the way, we're also the capital 219 00:11:12,080 --> 00:11:13,120 Speaker 2: of disasters, are we not? 220 00:11:13,920 --> 00:11:14,280 Speaker 1: All right? 221 00:11:14,360 --> 00:11:17,120 Speaker 2: We got the floods and the fires and the earthquakes. Sorry, 222 00:11:18,280 --> 00:11:21,640 Speaker 2: these are all her mortal fear. And so nine to 223 00:11:21,640 --> 00:11:24,120 Speaker 2: one one gets a good workout in California all the time. 224 00:11:25,120 --> 00:11:28,160 Speaker 2: But California, according to the Sacramento Bee, settled on a 225 00:11:28,240 --> 00:11:33,680 Speaker 2: design that no other state had ever implemented. They divided 226 00:11:33,720 --> 00:11:38,640 Speaker 2: the state into four regions, and they paid four technology 227 00:11:38,679 --> 00:11:43,280 Speaker 2: companies the four hundred and fifty million dollars. Well, it 228 00:11:43,400 --> 00:11:47,880 Speaker 2: turns out the four technology companies for the four regions. 229 00:11:47,880 --> 00:11:48,320 Speaker 1: None of it. 230 00:11:48,840 --> 00:11:53,040 Speaker 2: Nothing could talk to each other. It didn't connect. I 231 00:11:53,040 --> 00:11:55,080 Speaker 2: think I mentioned this the other day. They had four 232 00:11:55,200 --> 00:11:59,400 Speaker 2: hundred and fifty centers to root the calls, So they 233 00:11:59,440 --> 00:12:02,520 Speaker 2: started out by testing twenty three of them. Out of 234 00:12:02,520 --> 00:12:08,000 Speaker 2: the four fifty, all twenty three didn't work. It's by 235 00:12:08,000 --> 00:12:09,839 Speaker 2: the twenty third I'd love to see their face. By 236 00:12:09,840 --> 00:12:11,679 Speaker 2: the twenty third one they plugged in, it's like, well, 237 00:12:11,679 --> 00:12:15,280 Speaker 2: this one doesn't work either. This is not the only 238 00:12:15,320 --> 00:12:19,680 Speaker 2: technology project that has been extremely expensive and has taken 239 00:12:19,720 --> 00:12:21,520 Speaker 2: a long time and is a huge bust. 240 00:12:21,960 --> 00:12:24,920 Speaker 1: Wait to hear this one. 241 00:12:25,120 --> 00:12:28,440 Speaker 2: Two thousand and five, they came up with something called 242 00:12:28,440 --> 00:12:33,840 Speaker 2: the Financial Information System for California called fiscalf. This was 243 00:12:33,880 --> 00:12:39,680 Speaker 2: supposed to be a one stop application for managing state finances. 244 00:12:40,120 --> 00:12:43,599 Speaker 2: I guess this was a government project right to manage. 245 00:12:43,760 --> 00:12:46,360 Speaker 2: You know, they spent like three hundred and fifty billion 246 00:12:46,400 --> 00:12:51,560 Speaker 2: dollars a year. They started this in two thousand and five. 247 00:12:53,960 --> 00:12:59,400 Speaker 2: It's been twenty years. It's still not complete. It's many 248 00:12:59,440 --> 00:13:02,520 Speaker 2: years over. They have spent more than a billion dollars 249 00:13:03,679 --> 00:13:08,280 Speaker 2: and it's supposed to be finished sometime in the next decade. 250 00:13:08,679 --> 00:13:15,920 Speaker 2: Maybe it's possible it's never going to be finished. I mean, well, 251 00:13:16,640 --> 00:13:20,160 Speaker 2: can you imagine the technology revolution since two thousand and five. 252 00:13:20,960 --> 00:13:24,160 Speaker 2: Well that's what they started with, and they've blown a 253 00:13:24,200 --> 00:13:26,439 Speaker 2: billion of dollars and now they've blown almost a half 254 00:13:26,520 --> 00:13:31,720 Speaker 2: a billion on this nine one one system which doesn't work, 255 00:13:31,800 --> 00:13:33,280 Speaker 2: and you know, there are going to be more floods 256 00:13:33,280 --> 00:13:37,319 Speaker 2: and fires and earthquakes and crime and things.

You know, 502 00:26:47,320 --> 00:26:49,080 Speaker 2: that's what all this is. The bottom line is are 503 00:26:49,119 --> 00:26:54,600 Speaker 2: just enforcing existing law. And can you believe literally riots 504 00:26:54,720 --> 00:26:58,840 Speaker 2: protesting enforcing the law because people haven't seen the law 505 00:26:58,920 --> 00:27:01,639 Speaker 2: enforced in so many years And when they say it, 506 00:27:01,640 --> 00:27:03,919 Speaker 2: it's like, oh my god, that's harsh, that's wrong. It's like, no, 507 00:27:04,080 --> 00:27:06,840 Speaker 2: that's what should have been done for the last twenty years. 508 00:27:06,640 --> 00:27:13,560 Speaker 2: That's that's what enforcing the law looks like. We're this 509 00:27:13,640 --> 00:27:17,600 Speaker 2: is a bloodthirsty crash. Have you ever happened to been 510 00:27:17,640 --> 00:27:20,240 Speaker 2: around when a crime was committed, Like you witnessed a 511 00:27:20,280 --> 00:27:22,800 Speaker 2: crime or you were adjacent to it. Right when the 512 00:27:22,840 --> 00:27:26,240 Speaker 2: police show up, it's not pretty. I was on Santa 513 00:27:26,280 --> 00:27:29,040 Speaker 2: Monica with my wife, I think we were on the promenade, 514 00:27:29,040 --> 00:27:32,520 Speaker 2: which used to be nice, and she was returning to 515 00:27:32,560 --> 00:27:35,800 Speaker 2: something in the clothing store and I stood outside and 516 00:27:35,880 --> 00:27:38,920 Speaker 2: I was looking at the burger shop next door right, 517 00:27:39,320 --> 00:27:43,119 Speaker 2: thinking about a burger purchase. Suddenly that's true. Suddenly the 518 00:27:43,200 --> 00:27:46,920 Speaker 2: big ruckus behind me. I'd whip around and there is 519 00:27:47,040 --> 00:27:51,760 Speaker 2: some criminal, some miscreant getting gang tackled by about three 520 00:27:51,840 --> 00:27:53,920 Speaker 2: or four cops. I mean they all jumped on him 521 00:27:53,920 --> 00:27:56,560 Speaker 2: at the same time, and he's fighting back and they're wrestling, 522 00:27:56,880 --> 00:27:59,240 Speaker 2: and I see they've got guns, and I pie tailed 523 00:27:59,240 --> 00:28:02,360 Speaker 2: it out of there. I'm not sure if I left 524 00:28:02,359 --> 00:28:05,760 Speaker 2: my wife behind or not, but no, it was violent. 525 00:28:05,880 --> 00:28:09,440 Speaker 2: It was scary. It's like, holy crap, this is serious. 526 00:28:09,840 --> 00:28:11,840 Speaker 2: And that's when enforcing the law is. You don't go 527 00:28:11,960 --> 00:28:14,760 Speaker 2: up with a set of social workers to go excuse me, 528 00:28:14,840 --> 00:28:17,159 Speaker 2: mister criminal, can you please put the gun down. I 529 00:28:17,200 --> 00:28:19,480 Speaker 2: know you've had a troubled childhood and you're feeling rather 530 00:28:19,560 --> 00:28:21,679 Speaker 2: angry and you're acting out. It's like, no boom, he'd 531 00:28:21,680 --> 00:28:24,000 Speaker 2: blow your head off. So what they're doing up in 532 00:28:24,040 --> 00:28:30,560 Speaker 2: Minnesota is enforcing the law. Another scheme stole healthcare benefits 533 00:28:30,960 --> 00:28:35,520 Speaker 2: from something called the Housing Stability Services Program. This was 534 00:28:35,560 --> 00:28:39,160 Speaker 2: supposed to help seniors and people struggling with mental health problems. 535 00:28:39,640 --> 00:28:44,480 Speaker 2: Now this this program was supposed to cost two million 536 00:28:44,520 --> 00:28:48,200 Speaker 2: dollars a year. It soared to one hundred and four 537 00:28:48,240 --> 00:28:55,640 Speaker 2: million dollars all fraud. The fraudsters found people who might 538 00:28:55,680 --> 00:29:00,640 Speaker 2: have been eligible for the program. They went to rehab 539 00:29:00,720 --> 00:29:04,960 Speaker 2: centers and submitted fake reimbursement claims on these people's behalf. 540 00:29:05,240 --> 00:29:07,960 Speaker 2: So I guess they walked into the rehab centers and 541 00:29:08,000 --> 00:29:12,200 Speaker 2: they got the names of the patients, filled out forums, 542 00:29:12,480 --> 00:29:14,960 Speaker 2: and then the fraudsters took all the money one hundred 543 00:29:15,000 --> 00:29:22,240 Speaker 2: and four million dollars worth. The acting US Attorney Joseph 544 00:29:22,240 --> 00:29:25,560 Speaker 2: Thompson a couple of months ago charged eight people with 545 00:29:25,640 --> 00:29:27,360 Speaker 2: fraud and said, I want to be clear on the 546 00:29:27,400 --> 00:29:31,040 Speaker 2: scope of the crisis. What we see are schemes stacked 547 00:29:31,120 --> 00:29:35,320 Speaker 2: upon schemes, training resources meant for those in need. I 548 00:29:35,360 --> 00:29:38,160 Speaker 2: have spent my career as a fraud prosecutor, and the 549 00:29:38,200 --> 00:29:41,520 Speaker 2: depth of the fraud in Minnesota takes my breath away. 550 00:29:42,400 --> 00:29:44,400 Speaker 2: This is the guy who's been chasing it all his life. 551 00:29:45,200 --> 00:29:48,280 Speaker 2: Here's another one, the Minnesota Healthcare program. It was run 552 00:29:48,280 --> 00:29:53,040 Speaker 2: by somebody named Asha Farhan Hassan, offering medical services to 553 00:29:53,440 --> 00:29:59,280 Speaker 2: young kids with autism. Well, what they did is Hassan, 554 00:30:00,000 --> 00:30:03,600 Speaker 2: a woman and her partners. They went through the Somali 555 00:30:03,640 --> 00:30:07,560 Speaker 2: community to recruit the children, and when a child did 556 00:30:07,600 --> 00:30:12,120 Speaker 2: not have an autism diagnosis, Hassan and her partners created 557 00:30:12,160 --> 00:30:16,120 Speaker 2: one and got them an autism Well got the money 558 00:30:16,320 --> 00:30:19,640 Speaker 2: for autism, which of course Hassan took. So they created 559 00:30:19,680 --> 00:30:25,160 Speaker 2: fake autism cases after interviewing real children. The fraudsters paid 560 00:30:25,240 --> 00:30:28,360 Speaker 2: parents kickbacks, so the parents got in on this three 561 00:30:28,480 --> 00:30:32,280 Speaker 2: hundred to fifteen hundred dollars and Hassan and her partners 562 00:30:32,640 --> 00:30:36,280 Speaker 2: made fourteen million dollars. She took some of that money 563 00:30:36,280 --> 00:30:40,360 Speaker 2: to buy property in Kenya, Kenya. This is this is 564 00:30:40,440 --> 00:30:43,800 Speaker 2: our tax money here. Some of the people in the 565 00:30:43,600 --> 00:30:47,840 Speaker 2: in the in the scam to feed children they bought 566 00:30:47,840 --> 00:30:52,360 Speaker 2: property in Turkey. Now, so WATS is getting all kinds 567 00:30:52,360 --> 00:30:55,880 Speaker 2: of crap for this, right, it's a billion dollars. How 568 00:30:55,960 --> 00:31:00,680 Speaker 2: much money did Gavin Newsom lose to all the fraud 569 00:31:01,320 --> 00:31:08,640 Speaker 2: for the COVID unemployment scandal? Thirty two billion? Thirty two billion. 570 00:31:09,360 --> 00:31:13,280 Speaker 2: Waltz is getting all this crap for a billion. He's 571 00:31:13,400 --> 00:31:18,200 Speaker 2: minor league thirty two billion. Gavin Newsom, He gets no criticism, 572 00:31:18,520 --> 00:31:20,520 Speaker 2: no blowback, no investigation. 573 00:31:20,960 --> 00:31:21,560 Speaker 1: What is it? 574 00:31:22,400 --> 00:31:26,240 Speaker 2: What's he made of? If they ever opened up that 575 00:31:26,360 --> 00:31:29,200 Speaker 2: store in Sacramento? All right, we got to take a 576 00:31:29,200 --> 00:31:30,479 Speaker 2: break getting all worked up. 577 00:31:30,520 --> 00:31:32,880 Speaker 3: Oh my goodness, No, it's almost time, John. 578 00:31:33,720 --> 00:31:34,520 Speaker 1: Then I got it. 579 00:31:35,640 --> 00:31:39,520 Speaker 2: Somebody better spent some serious money if I'm gonna dress 580 00:31:39,600 --> 00:31:44,760 Speaker 2: up my annual nightmare.
