1
00:00:00,640 --> 00:00:00,880
Speaker 1: Can't.

2
00:00:00,960 --> 00:00:03,600
Speaker 2: I am six forty you're listening to the John Cobel

3
00:00:03,720 --> 00:00:08,800
Speaker 2: podcast on the iHeartRadio app. Imagine you were living your life,

4
00:00:08,840 --> 00:00:13,680
Speaker 2: minding your own business, and some judge far away decides

5
00:00:13,720 --> 00:00:20,640
Speaker 2: that he's going to send a forty three time rapist

6
00:00:20,960 --> 00:00:23,520
Speaker 2: to live in your neighborhood, to live on your block,

7
00:00:23,560 --> 00:00:24,319
Speaker 2: maybe next door.

8
00:00:25,000 --> 00:00:25,799
Speaker 1: That's what happened.

9
00:00:26,400 --> 00:00:29,440
Speaker 2: We have a judge, Richard Harrison, who out of his

10
00:00:29,480 --> 00:00:34,200
Speaker 2: Hollywood courtroom, decided that Christopher Hubbard, the pillowcase rapist, would

11
00:00:34,200 --> 00:00:36,520
Speaker 2: go to live at twenty eight eight hundred Cruthers Creek

12
00:00:36,560 --> 00:00:41,080
Speaker 2: Road in Juniper Hills out in the Antelope Valley, East

13
00:00:41,200 --> 00:00:46,520
Speaker 2: LA County. There's a hearing scheduled in about twenty units

14
00:00:46,600 --> 00:00:49,760
Speaker 2: or so in the Mental Health Courtroom, Number one one

15
00:00:49,920 --> 00:00:55,600
Speaker 2: three for the judge Richard Harrison. I guess for the

16
00:00:55,640 --> 00:00:59,680
Speaker 2: final details to be put in place so that Hubbard

17
00:01:01,320 --> 00:01:06,720
Speaker 2: can live among men, women and children at twenty eight

18
00:01:06,840 --> 00:01:10,720
Speaker 2: hundred Crothers Creek Road. He's been convicted of over forty

19
00:01:10,720 --> 00:01:14,440
Speaker 2: three counts of sexual assaults rape on women. He puts

20
00:01:14,480 --> 00:01:19,240
Speaker 2: pillowcases over their head and rapes them, sometimes in front

21
00:01:19,280 --> 00:01:22,920
Speaker 2: of the woman's children. He's been suspected and over on

22
00:01:22,920 --> 00:01:25,800
Speaker 2: one hundred, but many of those charges were reduced or

23
00:01:25,800 --> 00:01:30,160
Speaker 2: eliminated during plea bargaining. He has been declared a sexually

24
00:01:30,240 --> 00:01:37,640
Speaker 2: violent predator, and our stupid government, our cruel, inhumane government,

25
00:01:37,920 --> 00:01:40,920
Speaker 2: has let him out again. And every time they let

26
00:01:41,000 --> 00:01:42,880
Speaker 2: him out, either out of prison or out of the

27
00:01:42,920 --> 00:01:48,360
Speaker 2: mental institution, he starts raping women again or somehow violates

28
00:01:48,360 --> 00:01:52,440
Speaker 2: his parole. So let's get Cheryl Poindexter. Cheryl lives in

29
00:01:52,480 --> 00:01:55,639
Speaker 2: the general area out in the Annalope Valley. How are you, Cheryl.

30
00:01:57,080 --> 00:01:57,640
Speaker 3: I'm alive.

31
00:01:59,040 --> 00:02:01,720
Speaker 2: This is this is one of those stories. I say

32
00:02:01,720 --> 00:02:03,720
Speaker 2: this all the time. I'm reading this out loud. I'm

33
00:02:03,760 --> 00:02:06,720
Speaker 2: aware of the story. I just my brain can't accept it.

34
00:02:06,800 --> 00:02:09,639
Speaker 2: I just don't believe anybody normal would do this.

35
00:02:10,080 --> 00:02:13,760
Speaker 3: But yeah, I know it's insane and it just I mean,

36
00:02:13,800 --> 00:02:15,920
Speaker 3: and you don't know behalf of it. It just keeps

37
00:02:15,960 --> 00:02:18,480
Speaker 3: getting worse and worse. And I think you should run

38
00:02:18,520 --> 00:02:19,200
Speaker 3: for governor.

39
00:02:24,560 --> 00:02:24,760
Speaker 1: You know.

40
00:02:25,080 --> 00:02:28,519
Speaker 2: I don't want to spend my days fighting one hundred

41
00:02:28,560 --> 00:02:29,560
Speaker 2: progressive idiots.

42
00:02:31,160 --> 00:02:34,120
Speaker 1: Honestly, I could I could do. People.

43
00:02:34,400 --> 00:02:36,480
Speaker 2: People just have to vote differently. They don't have to

44
00:02:36,560 --> 00:02:38,680
Speaker 2: vote for me. They have to vote differently.

45
00:02:40,440 --> 00:02:43,120
Speaker 1: I don't understand what progressives.

46
00:02:42,520 --> 00:02:44,760
Speaker 2: Ought to be banished from government, and they ought to

47
00:02:44,760 --> 00:02:48,680
Speaker 2: be taken out into the ocean and dropped with weights

48
00:02:48,720 --> 00:02:50,920
Speaker 2: tied around their ankles. That's what should happen to these

49
00:02:50,919 --> 00:02:55,200
Speaker 2: progressive politicians. All right, tell me though, twenty minutes there's

50
00:02:55,440 --> 00:02:58,440
Speaker 2: there's a hearing. What's what's going to happen?

51
00:02:59,520 --> 00:03:04,400
Speaker 3: Oh, well, there's They set up a fence around it

52
00:03:04,440 --> 00:03:09,880
Speaker 3: looks like a prison, this really tall fence, and it's

53
00:03:09,919 --> 00:03:13,680
Speaker 3: been there's all kinds of code violations on it, and

54
00:03:14,280 --> 00:03:18,400
Speaker 3: they're trying to delay it because of the fire department

55
00:03:18,560 --> 00:03:23,079
Speaker 3: said the house is unsafe. No permits were pulled, and

56
00:03:23,120 --> 00:03:27,280
Speaker 3: it's against the Juniper Hills town standards, and the Regional

57
00:03:27,440 --> 00:03:31,520
Speaker 3: Planning is doing nothing about it. And so I assume

58
00:03:31,639 --> 00:03:35,840
Speaker 3: that they're stalling him coming in. He's not in yet.

59
00:03:36,400 --> 00:03:42,400
Speaker 3: There's no furniture in, but they've got the furniture isn't in,

60
00:03:42,520 --> 00:03:46,200
Speaker 3: and they've got this huge fence that's over six feet

61
00:03:46,280 --> 00:03:50,880
Speaker 3: and it's a privacy fence and there's an opening on

62
00:03:51,000 --> 00:03:53,360
Speaker 3: the north and there's no way in hell a fire

63
00:03:54,360 --> 00:03:57,200
Speaker 3: truck could get in there too, you know, if there

64
00:03:57,320 --> 00:04:01,640
Speaker 3: was a fire, and they say this offense and installed

65
00:04:01,800 --> 00:04:04,080
Speaker 3: Starlink satellite for him up there.

66
00:04:04,120 --> 00:04:07,000
Speaker 2: On Tuesday, maybe he gets somebody, we go all hello, stop,

67
00:04:07,600 --> 00:04:10,960
Speaker 2: Christopher Hubbard's getting a Starlink satellite so you could download

68
00:04:11,040 --> 00:04:12,400
Speaker 2: pornography more efficiently.

69
00:04:13,080 --> 00:04:18,560
Speaker 3: Well that's so they can supposedly watch him on his

70
00:04:18,800 --> 00:04:22,599
Speaker 3: you know, check on his GPS. And the thing that's

71
00:04:22,640 --> 00:04:26,400
Speaker 3: so crazy is Starlink cost about six hundred dollars a

72
00:04:26,480 --> 00:04:28,839
Speaker 3: month for the equipment. I mean six hundred dollars for

73
00:04:28,880 --> 00:04:31,559
Speaker 3: the equipment and a minimum of one hundred and forty

74
00:04:31,600 --> 00:04:34,840
Speaker 3: dollars a month for service. And there's a lot of

75
00:04:34,920 --> 00:04:38,880
Speaker 3: people up here, I mean there's no there's no service

76
00:04:39,040 --> 00:04:43,040
Speaker 3: up up there on Brothers Creek. You cannot your GPS

77
00:04:43,080 --> 00:04:47,760
Speaker 3: doesn't work, your cell phone does not work, there's nothing.

78
00:04:48,120 --> 00:04:50,960
Speaker 3: The only way that people can call nine to one

79
00:04:51,160 --> 00:04:55,400
Speaker 3: one is if they have satellite service for the neighbors,

80
00:04:55,440 --> 00:04:57,960
Speaker 3: and a lot of the neighbors up there can afford

81
00:04:57,960 --> 00:05:00,400
Speaker 3: one hundred and forty dollars a month and one hundred

82
00:05:00,400 --> 00:05:03,479
Speaker 3: dollars for the equipment, so they don't have a way

83
00:05:03,520 --> 00:05:06,080
Speaker 3: to call nine one one if anything were to happen.

84
00:05:07,040 --> 00:05:12,479
Speaker 2: And so you're talking about it if they're if they're outdoors, yeah, yeah,

85
00:05:12,480 --> 00:05:15,640
Speaker 2: there's no there's no cell phone signal, so they'd have

86
00:05:15,680 --> 00:05:18,479
Speaker 2: to be inside their house and have Wi Fi to

87
00:05:18,520 --> 00:05:21,440
Speaker 2: call nine one one. But if Christopher Hubbard rapes a

88
00:05:21,480 --> 00:05:25,120
Speaker 2: woman out in the street, nobody, nobody can nobody can

89
00:05:25,120 --> 00:05:26,600
Speaker 2: call exactly.

90
00:05:27,800 --> 00:05:30,760
Speaker 3: Wow, And that's the I mean, why would they choose

91
00:05:30,880 --> 00:05:34,480
Speaker 3: to put him up here where there's no service.

92
00:05:34,160 --> 00:05:36,520
Speaker 1: Because they don't care. I mean that, dude, I don't.

93
00:05:36,640 --> 00:05:39,800
Speaker 3: They don't care about the public. They have absolutely they

94
00:05:39,839 --> 00:05:41,040
Speaker 3: don't care about us at all.

95
00:05:41,240 --> 00:05:44,560
Speaker 2: No, when you repeatedly release a guy who's wrung up

96
00:05:44,600 --> 00:05:48,359
Speaker 2: one hundred rapes and being convicted forty three times, and

97
00:05:48,400 --> 00:05:51,240
Speaker 2: you release them again, uh, and you release them in

98
00:05:51,279 --> 00:05:54,000
Speaker 2: an area where there's no cell phone service, you're doing

99
00:05:54,000 --> 00:05:57,280
Speaker 2: it on purpose. And if women or young girls get raped,

100
00:05:57,720 --> 00:05:59,040
Speaker 2: they don't care.

101
00:06:00,520 --> 00:06:03,440
Speaker 3: Well. The last last time that he was busted was

102
00:06:03,560 --> 00:06:09,000
Speaker 3: in I think and uh up here in office Lancaster.

103
00:06:09,240 --> 00:06:11,599
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, ten years ago we covered that. Yeah.

104
00:06:11,720 --> 00:06:14,719
Speaker 3: Yeah, he was parading around in his yard and his

105
00:06:14,880 --> 00:06:18,520
Speaker 3: underwear while the four h kids were walking their lands

106
00:06:18,560 --> 00:06:20,960
Speaker 3: and then that slammed them back in there again.

107
00:06:21,040 --> 00:06:24,039
Speaker 1: I mean everything, you know what they would never tell

108
00:06:24,080 --> 00:06:26,760
Speaker 1: the reason. They just said he violated parole.

109
00:06:26,880 --> 00:06:29,080
Speaker 2: But he was wandering around in his underwear in front

110
00:06:29,120 --> 00:06:30,560
Speaker 2: of school kids.

111
00:06:30,839 --> 00:06:32,479
Speaker 1: Yeah, oh forgot.

112
00:06:33,600 --> 00:06:37,880
Speaker 3: And then they said they're they're required. They're only required

113
00:06:37,880 --> 00:06:42,680
Speaker 3: to review his GPS monitoring data once every twenty four hours.

114
00:06:42,720 --> 00:06:44,560
Speaker 2: I don't want to hear about all their excuses and

115
00:06:44,600 --> 00:06:46,760
Speaker 2: their stupid protocols.

116
00:06:46,880 --> 00:06:49,800
Speaker 3: No one is watching it live, no one. And in

117
00:06:49,920 --> 00:06:52,640
Speaker 3: order to look at the security camera footage, they have

118
00:06:52,760 --> 00:06:55,600
Speaker 3: to ask the court to let them see a specific

119
00:06:55,680 --> 00:06:59,600
Speaker 3: time period. And per the judge's orders, none of that

120
00:06:59,680 --> 00:07:01,839
Speaker 3: data is allowed to be shared with lunch.

121
00:07:02,760 --> 00:07:08,040
Speaker 2: And so the judge, the judge approved these lacks restrictions. Restrictions. Uh,

122
00:07:08,120 --> 00:07:11,840
Speaker 2: Richard Richard Harrison. What's with Richard Harrison? Why is he

123
00:07:12,280 --> 00:07:16,320
Speaker 2: pro Uh Christopher Hubbard? Why is he giving Christopher Hubbard

124
00:07:16,360 --> 00:07:19,640
Speaker 2: so many breaks after all these rape convictions.

125
00:07:20,160 --> 00:07:23,560
Speaker 3: I think it has to do with Liberty, you know,

126
00:07:24,240 --> 00:07:25,200
Speaker 3: Liberty Healthcare.

127
00:07:25,400 --> 00:07:26,280
Speaker 1: Liberty Healthcare.

128
00:07:27,280 --> 00:07:31,960
Speaker 2: Yeah, Liberty Healthcare is the company that's in charge of

129
00:07:33,080 --> 00:07:34,720
Speaker 2: monitoring Hubbard.

130
00:07:35,880 --> 00:07:40,120
Speaker 1: Why why why is he giving Liberty Healthcare? Uh? Such leeway?

131
00:07:40,200 --> 00:07:44,640
Speaker 2: This this sounds very dangerous, It sounds really absurd.

132
00:07:46,160 --> 00:07:50,440
Speaker 3: And there's no competitive bidding. Of course, we are considered

133
00:07:50,480 --> 00:07:53,760
Speaker 3: experts and they're the only ones that are doing this,

134
00:07:53,880 --> 00:07:54,760
Speaker 3: and it's.

135
00:07:54,760 --> 00:07:57,040
Speaker 1: It's no competitive building.

136
00:07:57,040 --> 00:08:01,320
Speaker 2: And they're considered experts, right, experts that let a forty

137
00:08:01,360 --> 00:08:05,480
Speaker 2: three time convicted rapist live among women and children with

138
00:08:05,880 --> 00:08:06,960
Speaker 2: very little supervision.

139
00:08:07,400 --> 00:08:09,320
Speaker 1: Is there anybody gonna be inside his house?

140
00:08:11,680 --> 00:08:11,880
Speaker 2: Not?

141
00:08:12,040 --> 00:08:12,080
Speaker 3: No?

142
00:08:12,680 --> 00:08:19,200
Speaker 1: No, what's the security? What does that look like in reality? Defense?

143
00:08:21,920 --> 00:08:24,200
Speaker 1: And if he wanders out into the street, what.

144
00:08:24,320 --> 00:08:29,600
Speaker 3: Happens, Well, nothing happens because people can't there's no you know,

145
00:08:30,640 --> 00:08:32,319
Speaker 3: I don't know how they're gonna you.

146
00:08:32,280 --> 00:08:35,440
Speaker 2: Know, so he can run down the block and rape

147
00:08:35,480 --> 00:08:38,800
Speaker 2: a woman, put a pillow case over his head and

148
00:08:40,080 --> 00:08:40,839
Speaker 2: nothing will happen.

149
00:08:42,280 --> 00:08:43,680
Speaker 3: Somebody might shoot him.

150
00:08:44,920 --> 00:08:47,520
Speaker 1: Yeah, I suppose there's that. Yeah.

151
00:08:47,559 --> 00:08:50,400
Speaker 2: The public's got to take, uh, take things in their

152
00:08:50,400 --> 00:08:52,240
Speaker 2: own hands, I guess, provide their own security.

153
00:08:52,880 --> 00:08:56,040
Speaker 3: Yeah, but you know, then they'll be in trouble. You know,

154
00:08:56,200 --> 00:08:59,880
Speaker 3: don't go to prison. It's just insane. Nobody is no,

155
00:09:00,120 --> 00:09:00,839
Speaker 3: he's protecting it.

156
00:09:01,000 --> 00:09:04,320
Speaker 2: And you've had nobody, no nobody in politics able to

157
00:09:04,320 --> 00:09:05,480
Speaker 2: help you.

158
00:09:05,480 --> 00:09:07,880
Speaker 1: No, no, no state centered or assemblyman.

159
00:09:08,000 --> 00:09:13,840
Speaker 3: Everybody's written letters. Everybody's written letters to you know, everybody.

160
00:09:13,440 --> 00:09:15,800
Speaker 2: Yeah, letters are useless. They don't read the letters that

161
00:09:15,840 --> 00:09:17,719
Speaker 2: they all write to each other. They don't care.

162
00:09:17,760 --> 00:09:21,600
Speaker 3: Now at the hearing. At the hearing, only five members

163
00:09:21,640 --> 00:09:24,800
Speaker 3: of the public are allowed to attend any of the hearings,

164
00:09:25,120 --> 00:09:28,079
Speaker 3: and no one is allowed to make any comments or

165
00:09:28,400 --> 00:09:31,520
Speaker 3: or either in person or online.

166
00:09:30,920 --> 00:09:32,640
Speaker 1: By design because they don't care.

167
00:09:32,960 --> 00:09:37,480
Speaker 2: Right, they don't care, you know what I mean. You

168
00:09:37,559 --> 00:09:41,280
Speaker 2: have a government from Gavin Neusimon down. They don't care

169
00:09:41,400 --> 00:09:42,600
Speaker 2: if you get raped by this guy.

170
00:09:43,520 --> 00:09:46,040
Speaker 3: That's right, it's not going to matter to and someone will,

171
00:09:46,440 --> 00:09:50,040
Speaker 3: something will happen. And you know, and the thing that

172
00:09:50,280 --> 00:09:53,920
Speaker 3: drives me nuts is that once okay, let's say he

173
00:09:54,360 --> 00:09:57,439
Speaker 3: goes back to to you know, somebody shoots them or

174
00:09:57,480 --> 00:10:00,640
Speaker 3: he dies, or or he goes back to the Nut House,

175
00:10:01,280 --> 00:10:08,560
Speaker 3: and that that house will always be designated as the SVP.

176
00:10:09,520 --> 00:10:11,080
Speaker 1: House. Okay always.

177
00:10:11,520 --> 00:10:13,760
Speaker 2: So this I got to run. But is this hearing

178
00:10:13,800 --> 00:10:15,800
Speaker 2: the last kind of last formality?

179
00:10:17,200 --> 00:10:19,640
Speaker 3: I think it's just to say that, okay, we got

180
00:10:19,760 --> 00:10:20,600
Speaker 3: to sense.

181
00:10:20,320 --> 00:10:23,200
Speaker 1: Up, Okay, what the hearings.

182
00:10:23,640 --> 00:10:26,360
Speaker 2: So he'll be in the neighborhood, you know, any minute now,

183
00:10:26,400 --> 00:10:29,520
Speaker 2: probably all right, listen, Cheryl Poindexter, thank you for coming.

184
00:10:29,320 --> 00:10:31,400
Speaker 3: On all right, thank you for having me.

185
00:10:31,520 --> 00:10:35,920
Speaker 4: All right, you're listening to John Cobelt on demand from

186
00:10:36,000 --> 00:10:37,600
Speaker 4: KFI AM sixty.

187
00:10:39,200 --> 00:10:43,199
Speaker 2: Yesterday was Karen Bass Day here on the show. Karen

188
00:10:43,240 --> 00:10:49,280
Speaker 2: Bass and Kristin Crowley, the two women who completely botched

189
00:10:49,360 --> 00:10:56,720
Speaker 2: up their their jobs to protect the people in this

190
00:10:56,840 --> 00:11:04,480
Speaker 2: city from losing their homes or losing their lives. Neither

191
00:11:04,559 --> 00:11:10,559
Speaker 2: one seemed to hear or react to the extreme fire

192
00:11:10,600 --> 00:11:13,600
Speaker 2: warnings that the National Weather Service was giving out for

193
00:11:14,600 --> 00:11:19,800
Speaker 2: five six straight days, second, third, fourth, fifth, sixth, seventh. Yeah,

194
00:11:20,280 --> 00:11:24,320
Speaker 2: six days, six days of extreme fire warnings. And Bass

195
00:11:24,559 --> 00:11:29,760
Speaker 2: said that she didn't know about it, and she says

196
00:11:29,840 --> 00:11:32,559
Speaker 2: Crowley just waved it off as hey, we always get

197
00:11:32,559 --> 00:11:36,800
Speaker 2: sant Ana wins. Listen to Karen Bass again. And this

198
00:11:36,880 --> 00:11:39,600
Speaker 2: is from Alex Michaelson Fox eleven going to.

199
00:11:39,559 --> 00:11:41,960
Speaker 5: Go to Ghana, which I know you've said was a

200
00:11:42,040 --> 00:11:45,240
Speaker 5: mistake now, but I just am curious on the thought

201
00:11:45,240 --> 00:11:48,480
Speaker 5: process behind it, because we know that there was warnings

202
00:11:48,520 --> 00:11:51,440
Speaker 5: about the weather before you went, and you still went.

203
00:11:52,000 --> 00:11:54,240
Speaker 5: What was the thought process behind going to Ghana?

204
00:11:54,280 --> 00:11:55,840
Speaker 6: So let me just tell you a couple of things.

205
00:11:56,320 --> 00:11:58,720
Speaker 6: First of all, when the White House called and asked

206
00:11:58,720 --> 00:12:02,200
Speaker 6: me if I would report the president. I said, yes,

207
00:12:02,559 --> 00:12:04,720
Speaker 6: it was going to be a very very short trip

208
00:12:05,520 --> 00:12:09,320
Speaker 6: over a weekend and two business days. We need to

209
00:12:09,480 --> 00:12:13,560
Speaker 6: look at everything about the preparation and all of that

210
00:12:14,000 --> 00:12:18,280
Speaker 6: for the fires, because I think when we evaluate that,

211
00:12:18,960 --> 00:12:22,600
Speaker 6: we will find that although there were warnings that I

212
00:12:22,679 --> 00:12:26,760
Speaker 6: frankly wasn't aware of. Although there were warnings, I think

213
00:12:26,880 --> 00:12:30,640
Speaker 6: our preparation it wasn't what it typically is, meaning that

214
00:12:30,960 --> 00:12:34,120
Speaker 6: before there's a major weather event, for example last week,

215
00:12:34,280 --> 00:12:34,559
Speaker 6: and we.

216
00:12:34,520 --> 00:12:38,000
Speaker 1: Get stopped there. So I love the way she slipped

217
00:12:38,040 --> 00:12:38,560
Speaker 1: that in there.

218
00:12:38,720 --> 00:12:41,360
Speaker 2: She wasn't aware of the warnings, and we spent a

219
00:12:41,400 --> 00:12:45,679
Speaker 2: lot of time yesterday going through the frequency and severity

220
00:12:45,720 --> 00:12:48,360
Speaker 2: of the warnings from the National Weather Service. And then

221
00:12:49,800 --> 00:12:53,360
Speaker 2: basically what she's saying is Kristen Crowley just didn't get

222
00:12:53,400 --> 00:12:57,000
Speaker 2: the fire Department prepared, And it seems that's true. They

223
00:12:57,280 --> 00:13:01,079
Speaker 2: were not prepared. There were no extra engines, there were

224
00:13:01,120 --> 00:13:04,720
Speaker 2: no extra personnel focused on the Palisades and a number

225
00:13:04,720 --> 00:13:07,760
Speaker 2: of other places that the Weather Service said were likely

226
00:13:07,880 --> 00:13:11,480
Speaker 2: to go up in flames. But the Los Angeles Fire

227
00:13:11,520 --> 00:13:19,720
Speaker 2: Department is angry with Karen Bass because she's claiming The

228
00:13:19,760 --> 00:13:27,880
Speaker 2: fire department says that the department followed all standard preparation procedures.

229
00:13:28,400 --> 00:13:31,160
Speaker 1: They posted. Prior to the Palisades fire.

230
00:13:31,440 --> 00:13:37,120
Speaker 2: The LA Fire Department emailed two separate media advisories, conducted

231
00:13:37,200 --> 00:13:41,520
Speaker 2: multiple live and recorded media interviews about predicted extreme fire weather,

232
00:13:41,880 --> 00:13:44,760
Speaker 2: and notified city officials about the upcoming weather event.

233
00:13:45,840 --> 00:13:48,000
Speaker 1: I have to believe that's all true.

234
00:13:48,240 --> 00:13:53,760
Speaker 2: However, Kristin Crowley did not take those warnings and positioned

235
00:13:53,760 --> 00:13:59,000
Speaker 2: the firefighters and the engines in the proper position, and

236
00:13:59,040 --> 00:14:01,600
Speaker 2: the fire hydrants many of them didn't work. And of

237
00:14:01,600 --> 00:14:07,360
Speaker 2: course we know the idiot Genie Keinoniez left the reservoir empty,

238
00:14:08,360 --> 00:14:11,760
Speaker 2: sent in as reservoir one hundred and seventeen million gallons empty.

239
00:14:12,640 --> 00:14:19,200
Speaker 2: So while they sent out I don't know emails, media advisories, tweets, posts,

240
00:14:21,120 --> 00:14:24,960
Speaker 2: the action was not existence but non existent on the

241
00:14:24,960 --> 00:14:28,320
Speaker 2: part of Kristin Crowley and on Karen Bass, who says

242
00:14:28,480 --> 00:14:32,520
Speaker 2: I didn't know, I didn't know there was This is massive,

243
00:14:32,760 --> 00:14:36,960
Speaker 2: overwhelming in competence. These two should resign, they should be

244
00:14:37,160 --> 00:14:39,560
Speaker 2: There's no way to fire them. This is really awful.

245
00:14:40,960 --> 00:14:44,600
Speaker 2: They just should go The New York Post. I mean,

246
00:14:44,600 --> 00:14:47,640
Speaker 2: this has become a national story. Here's the headline. This

247
00:14:47,800 --> 00:14:50,360
Speaker 2: is on the front page of the New York Post today.

248
00:14:51,000 --> 00:14:55,520
Speaker 2: La Mayor Karen Bass gives mind boggling excuse for being

249
00:14:55,520 --> 00:14:57,600
Speaker 2: in Ghana as their city bird.

250
00:14:58,640 --> 00:15:00,600
Speaker 1: This is what we look like to the rest the world.

251
00:15:00,880 --> 00:15:04,240
Speaker 2: La Mayor Karen Bass gives mind boggling excuse for being

252
00:15:04,240 --> 00:15:05,920
Speaker 2: in Ghana as her city burned.

253
00:15:07,200 --> 00:15:10,160
Speaker 1: And she's still here. She's not gone.

254
00:15:10,560 --> 00:15:18,360
Speaker 2: Kristin Crowley's not gone. Denise Kenonas is not gone. These

255
00:15:18,440 --> 00:15:26,360
Speaker 2: three were dangerous, are dangerous. What happened was deadly, destructive, tragic, overwhelming,

256
00:15:26,880 --> 00:15:31,480
Speaker 2: and it could have been medicated or even prevented. If

257
00:15:31,480 --> 00:15:34,320
Speaker 2: they had just sent fire trucks up in the Palisades Hills,

258
00:15:34,480 --> 00:15:36,520
Speaker 2: they might have spot of the fire. If if they'd

259
00:15:36,520 --> 00:15:38,960
Speaker 2: gone to the spot of the last fire New Year's

260
00:15:39,040 --> 00:15:43,520
Speaker 2: Day where the fireworks fire started, that may have been

261
00:15:43,560 --> 00:15:48,400
Speaker 2: where it got rekindled. The firefighters should have been positioned

262
00:15:48,400 --> 00:15:51,600
Speaker 2: there and they might have been able to snuff that

263
00:15:51,680 --> 00:15:52,840
Speaker 2: out very quickly.

264
00:15:54,560 --> 00:15:59,560
Speaker 1: But I have I cannot remember in my whole.

265
00:15:59,280 --> 00:16:06,240
Speaker 2: Life this kind of incompetence coupled with incredible arrogance and denials.

266
00:16:06,760 --> 00:16:09,360
Speaker 2: Did Crowley really say, oh, we always get sat Ana wins.

267
00:16:09,960 --> 00:16:13,080
Speaker 2: Did Carabas really not know about all the warnings for

268
00:16:13,120 --> 00:16:16,280
Speaker 2: two days before she took off for Africa? We got

269
00:16:16,320 --> 00:16:18,880
Speaker 2: to have a lot more. I'm not waiting for investigations.

270
00:16:19,000 --> 00:16:21,040
Speaker 2: I don't want to hear about investigations.

271
00:16:21,680 --> 00:16:25,760
Speaker 4: You're listening to John Cobels on demand from KFI A

272
00:16:26,040 --> 00:16:26,520
Speaker 4: six fort.

273
00:16:27,400 --> 00:16:31,320
Speaker 2: Did I hear you in the newscast say that one

274
00:16:31,320 --> 00:16:34,040
Speaker 2: of the Menendez brothers claimed that they were bullied in prison.

275
00:16:34,880 --> 00:16:38,440
Speaker 7: They both say that they're bullied in prison. One of

276
00:16:38,480 --> 00:16:41,600
Speaker 7: them admits that he was a spoiled brat before the murders.

277
00:16:41,920 --> 00:16:43,720
Speaker 7: But they're bullied in prison.

278
00:16:43,520 --> 00:16:47,600
Speaker 2: Bullied in prison, and we're supposed to feel sorry that

279
00:16:47,640 --> 00:16:49,000
Speaker 2: they were bullied in prison?

280
00:16:49,600 --> 00:16:52,520
Speaker 7: Yes, uh huh, Well, I don't know if they're supposed to.

281
00:16:52,680 --> 00:16:55,200
Speaker 7: I mean, I don't know if they're if they're asking

282
00:16:55,320 --> 00:16:57,840
Speaker 7: us to uh be sympathetic.

283
00:16:57,320 --> 00:16:59,360
Speaker 1: Or they just he's still spoiled brat.

284
00:16:59,360 --> 00:17:02,000
Speaker 2: If he's even saying that, of course he was bullied

285
00:17:02,000 --> 00:17:03,760
Speaker 2: in prison, probably a lot worse than that.

286
00:17:06,400 --> 00:17:09,920
Speaker 1: I was bullied. You're even you're like fifty four years

287
00:17:09,960 --> 00:17:14,920
Speaker 1: old or something, what do you was bullied? God?

288
00:17:15,960 --> 00:17:20,800
Speaker 2: I wish they'd been executed like thirty years ago. But

289
00:17:21,000 --> 00:17:21,560
Speaker 2: that's harsh.

290
00:17:22,800 --> 00:17:24,760
Speaker 7: You know there's certain things John that.

291
00:17:26,840 --> 00:17:27,240
Speaker 1: You do.

292
00:17:27,280 --> 00:17:32,600
Speaker 7: You and I'm.

293
00:17:31,760 --> 00:17:35,160
Speaker 1: I believe an instant justice. I know you do. All right, now,

294
00:17:35,240 --> 00:17:39,680
Speaker 1: this this may be good news, you know that. Boy.

295
00:17:39,840 --> 00:17:43,840
Speaker 2: I love all this shouting by progressives that Elon Musk

296
00:17:44,000 --> 00:17:45,280
Speaker 2: is unelected.

297
00:17:46,080 --> 00:17:47,200
Speaker 1: You know who's unelected?

298
00:17:47,480 --> 00:17:50,880
Speaker 2: That all the progressives are very comfortable with the California

299
00:17:50,880 --> 00:17:58,000
Speaker 2: Air Resources Board. Remember that crowd of jackals they passed,

300
00:17:58,440 --> 00:18:02,240
Speaker 2: if you remember last fall, a low carbon fuel standard,

301
00:18:02,760 --> 00:18:07,200
Speaker 2: which would raise the gas tax by sixty five since

302
00:18:11,080 --> 00:18:14,439
Speaker 2: they initially admitted it would be an increase of forty

303
00:18:14,520 --> 00:18:18,720
Speaker 2: seven cents per gallon, but new projection says the price

304
00:18:18,880 --> 00:18:25,359
Speaker 2: would be sixty five cents and California's average gasoline price

305
00:18:25,640 --> 00:18:29,760
Speaker 2: would exceed the national average by as much as sixty

306
00:18:29,840 --> 00:18:33,560
Speaker 2: two percent by the end of this year, courtesy of

307
00:18:33,600 --> 00:18:37,480
Speaker 2: the unelected California Air Resources Board. Have you ever heard

308
00:18:37,560 --> 00:18:40,320
Speaker 2: have you ever heard any of the California progressive politicians

309
00:18:40,520 --> 00:18:47,280
Speaker 2: complain about the about car being unelected? No, because they're

310
00:18:47,400 --> 00:18:52,600
Speaker 2: happy as long as unelected boards and unelected bureaucrats are

311
00:18:52,640 --> 00:18:58,879
Speaker 2: punishing us because they hate us. Now, there was so

312
00:18:59,040 --> 00:19:03,600
Speaker 2: much blowback. In fact, there was a petition signed by

313
00:19:03,600 --> 00:19:07,920
Speaker 2: thirteen thousand people asking CARB to at least postpone the increase,

314
00:19:08,600 --> 00:19:14,960
Speaker 2: and CARB refused to change anything. And now, now, after

315
00:19:15,040 --> 00:19:21,560
Speaker 2: all this time, Tuesday, the Office of Administrative Law, I

316
00:19:21,640 --> 00:19:28,960
Speaker 2: don't even know what that is. They have rejected this

317
00:19:28,960 --> 00:19:36,200
Speaker 2: this field standard and rejected the price increase. This happened

318
00:19:36,240 --> 00:19:41,600
Speaker 2: on Tuesday. The Office of Administrative Law disapproved amendments to

319
00:19:41,720 --> 00:19:50,000
Speaker 2: the low Carbon Mandate and a CARB spokes hole, David Klegern.

320
00:19:51,160 --> 00:19:53,760
Speaker 2: God who goes up to who grows up to be

321
00:19:53,800 --> 00:19:58,880
Speaker 2: a spokes hole for the California Air Resources Board. Wow,

322
00:20:00,240 --> 00:20:03,280
Speaker 2: that's a good use of your life, he says. The

323
00:20:03,440 --> 00:20:08,080
Speaker 2: Office of Administrative Law issued a routine disapproval of amendments

324
00:20:08,119 --> 00:20:11,040
Speaker 2: on technical grounds, not on the merits of the regulation.

325
00:20:11,840 --> 00:20:18,679
Speaker 2: CARB will refine the language and resubmit for approval. Carbon

326
00:20:18,680 --> 00:20:23,879
Speaker 2: has four months to fix the issues and resubmit. But

327
00:20:23,960 --> 00:20:28,600
Speaker 2: there's a lot of legislators that want this temporary halt

328
00:20:28,680 --> 00:20:34,880
Speaker 2: to be permanent. There is a Senate bill, Senate Bill two,

329
00:20:35,080 --> 00:20:39,639
Speaker 2: which is being pushed by two Republicans. I don't know

330
00:20:39,640 --> 00:20:41,840
Speaker 2: how to say this woman's name, but I'll give it

331
00:20:41,880 --> 00:20:46,680
Speaker 2: a shot. Rosalisi Ochoa bo out of Yukaipa and Brian

332
00:20:46,760 --> 00:20:49,359
Speaker 2: Jones out of San Diego. They both called for the

333
00:20:49,400 --> 00:20:52,919
Speaker 2: passage that would of this bill, which would void the

334
00:20:52,960 --> 00:20:57,640
Speaker 2: new carbon amendments and kill any gas press price rise.

335
00:20:57,680 --> 00:21:00,879
Speaker 2: Now we are up to about forty five a gallon,

336
00:21:01,880 --> 00:21:04,880
Speaker 2: which is the highest in the country, higher even than Hawaii,

337
00:21:05,960 --> 00:21:08,439
Speaker 2: and he had another sixty five cents to that, and

338
00:21:08,480 --> 00:21:11,199
Speaker 2: we would be at five dollars and fifty cents a gallon.

339
00:21:12,560 --> 00:21:14,919
Speaker 2: And there are some states that sell gas for as

340
00:21:15,000 --> 00:21:19,359
Speaker 2: low as two dollars and sixty seven cents. In fact,

341
00:21:19,359 --> 00:21:24,560
Speaker 2: there's about forty states that sell it for like three

342
00:21:24,560 --> 00:21:29,560
Speaker 2: and a quarter or less, and we're at forty four

343
00:21:29,880 --> 00:21:35,680
Speaker 2: plus the sixty five cents. This is another thing from

344
00:21:35,720 --> 00:21:38,960
Speaker 2: Gavin Newsom. So like just in the last hour, we've

345
00:21:38,960 --> 00:21:41,840
Speaker 2: told you that Gavin Newsom and his administration are bringing

346
00:21:41,880 --> 00:21:47,000
Speaker 2: you the forty three time convicted rapist pillowcase rapist Christopher

347
00:21:47,080 --> 00:21:48,359
Speaker 2: Hubbard to Juniper Hills.

348
00:21:48,880 --> 00:21:53,480
Speaker 1: And we're very close.

349
00:21:53,240 --> 00:21:55,639
Speaker 2: To still getting the sixty five cent increase in the

350
00:21:55,640 --> 00:21:59,960
Speaker 2: gas courtesy of Gavin Newsom. But it looks to be

351
00:22:00,760 --> 00:22:11,080
Speaker 2: tied up over a technicality issue. The legislature has to

352
00:22:11,640 --> 00:22:15,600
Speaker 2: rescind this increase. There really should be some kind of

353
00:22:15,600 --> 00:22:16,240
Speaker 2: rebellion here.

354
00:22:16,359 --> 00:22:17,440
Speaker 1: I feel.

355
00:22:17,800 --> 00:22:20,880
Speaker 2: I feel so frustrated that the rest of the country

356
00:22:21,280 --> 00:22:24,760
Speaker 2: is enjoying all the massive cuts that are taking place

357
00:22:24,800 --> 00:22:29,040
Speaker 2: in Washington, d C. All the fraudsters, all the criminals,

358
00:22:29,720 --> 00:22:33,200
Speaker 2: it's all being shook loose. They're gonna be finally dealing

359
00:22:33,280 --> 00:22:38,160
Speaker 2: with the criminals running high speed rail, and yet here

360
00:22:38,200 --> 00:22:42,280
Speaker 2: we are in California, mired with the same old garbage,

361
00:22:42,280 --> 00:22:50,200
Speaker 2: the same corruption, the same money laundering, the same micromanaging

362
00:22:50,680 --> 00:22:53,800
Speaker 2: with their weird obsessions, and it's all about shape, it's

363
00:22:53,800 --> 00:22:56,120
Speaker 2: all about stealing money from us. This sixty five cent

364
00:22:56,200 --> 00:23:01,679
Speaker 2: increase is just flat out stealing money from us, because

365
00:23:01,760 --> 00:23:05,440
Speaker 2: that's the whole point of the government operation.

366
00:23:07,000 --> 00:23:07,920
Speaker 1: I said this yesterday.

367
00:23:07,920 --> 00:23:09,760
Speaker 2: If you wonder how we went from one hundred billion

368
00:23:09,800 --> 00:23:12,400
Speaker 2: dollars the first year or Jerry Brown for a state

369
00:23:12,400 --> 00:23:16,280
Speaker 2: budget to three hundred billion. Now, I think this week

370
00:23:16,359 --> 00:23:19,240
Speaker 2: is proven. They're just stealing the money and they're not

371
00:23:19,280 --> 00:23:23,720
Speaker 2: writing down what they're stealing. So there's no way, there's

372
00:23:23,800 --> 00:23:25,520
Speaker 2: no way we ought to have to pay another sixty

373
00:23:25,520 --> 00:23:30,160
Speaker 2: five cents a gallon. They can't force us into electric

374
00:23:30,200 --> 00:23:34,600
Speaker 2: cars there's very few electric chargers out there, and the

375
00:23:34,680 --> 00:23:37,560
Speaker 2: electrical grid has not been built.

376
00:23:37,640 --> 00:23:42,960
Speaker 1: It can barely handle what we are what we are using. Now.

377
00:23:44,280 --> 00:23:46,720
Speaker 1: They want to ruin our lives.

378
00:23:47,480 --> 00:23:49,840
Speaker 2: They don't think we should be living this way, that

379
00:23:49,880 --> 00:23:51,960
Speaker 2: we should not have the freedom to live the way

380
00:23:51,960 --> 00:23:56,520
Speaker 2: we live. They progressives really believe this, and they're trying

381
00:23:56,560 --> 00:24:00,119
Speaker 2: to And this is like the last bastion of the stuff.

382
00:24:00,119 --> 00:24:02,400
Speaker 2: This is no longer going on in much of the country.

383
00:24:02,680 --> 00:24:06,920
Speaker 2: It's dead. It's over in much of the country except here.

384
00:24:12,880 --> 00:24:17,960
Speaker 2: All right, more coming up three o'clock, we're going to

385
00:24:18,040 --> 00:24:22,200
Speaker 2: get back on the high speed rail story because Sean Duffy,

386
00:24:22,280 --> 00:24:25,720
Speaker 2: the Transportation Secretary, came to Los Angeles and said they

387
00:24:25,720 --> 00:24:29,040
Speaker 2: are going to do a thorough review of high speed

388
00:24:29,119 --> 00:24:33,440
Speaker 2: rail because do you know, not one inch of rail

389
00:24:33,480 --> 00:24:36,280
Speaker 2: has been built, has been laid down, not one inch

390
00:24:36,320 --> 00:24:40,639
Speaker 2: of high speed rail, and they're only trying to do

391
00:24:40,680 --> 00:24:43,960
Speaker 2: Bakersfield and or said, and that's not going to happen

392
00:24:44,359 --> 00:24:52,920
Speaker 2: for at least ten years. And you know, they're tens

393
00:24:52,960 --> 00:24:56,040
Speaker 2: of billions of dollars over budget, and Sean Duffy is

394
00:24:56,080 --> 00:25:01,160
Speaker 2: saying enough. Susan Shelley from the Howard Jarvi Taxpayers Association

395
00:25:01,280 --> 00:25:05,080
Speaker 2: has more information because there's four billion dollars hanging in

396
00:25:05,080 --> 00:25:10,960
Speaker 2: the air that the Biden criminals approved of and Newsome

397
00:25:11,160 --> 00:25:15,359
Speaker 2: and high speed Rail wants that four billion. They're not

398
00:25:15,400 --> 00:25:17,120
Speaker 2: going to get it, but they're going to go through

399
00:25:17,160 --> 00:25:18,000
Speaker 2: the review process.

400
00:25:18,040 --> 00:25:18,320
Speaker 1: First.

401
00:25:19,200 --> 00:25:23,520
Speaker 4: You're listening to John Cobelts on demand from KFI AM

402
00:25:23,560 --> 00:25:24,080
Speaker 4: six forty.

403
00:25:25,000 --> 00:25:28,080
Speaker 2: John Cobelt's show coming up after three o'clock. We got

404
00:25:28,119 --> 00:25:31,440
Speaker 2: to Susan Shelley on from the Howard Jarvis Taxpayers Association

405
00:25:31,600 --> 00:25:36,399
Speaker 2: about today's trip by Sean Duffy, the Transportation Secretary to

406
00:25:36,600 --> 00:25:40,400
Speaker 2: LA to say that they're going to do a compliance

407
00:25:40,480 --> 00:25:45,080
Speaker 2: review of high speed Rail. That's the investigation that Trump demanded.

408
00:25:45,480 --> 00:25:48,720
Speaker 2: They are going to see where's the money gone. It's

409
00:25:49,040 --> 00:25:52,199
Speaker 2: well over ten billion dollars. There's another four billion that

410
00:25:52,320 --> 00:25:55,119
Speaker 2: is supposed to come from the FEDS that the Biden

411
00:25:55,119 --> 00:25:59,840
Speaker 2: administration set aside. But there's no high speed rail track

412
00:26:00,040 --> 00:26:02,840
Speaker 2: that's laid on the ground after sixteen and a half years.

413
00:26:03,680 --> 00:26:06,640
Speaker 2: So we'll talk with Susan Shelley coming up. I want

414
00:26:06,640 --> 00:26:10,600
Speaker 2: to plan now a clip we've got of Sean Duffy,

415
00:26:10,720 --> 00:26:13,000
Speaker 2: and this was the press conference they held at Union Station.

416
00:26:13,160 --> 00:26:15,119
Speaker 1: Transportation Secretary. I want to.

417
00:26:15,119 --> 00:26:17,560
Speaker 8: Address the protesters for a moment if I could.

418
00:26:18,320 --> 00:26:20,760
Speaker 1: I think they were chanting build the rail.

419
00:26:21,480 --> 00:26:24,440
Speaker 8: It's been seventeen years and sixteen billion.

420
00:26:24,119 --> 00:26:26,920
Speaker 1: Dollars and no rail has been built.

421
00:26:27,160 --> 00:26:29,000
Speaker 8: So if you want to go protest somewhere, if you

422
00:26:29,040 --> 00:26:32,080
Speaker 8: want to shout at someone, go to the governor's mansion,

423
00:26:32,280 --> 00:26:35,720
Speaker 8: go talk to Democrats in the legislature who have brought

424
00:26:35,840 --> 00:26:37,360
Speaker 8: us this crappy project.

425
00:26:37,920 --> 00:26:38,080
Speaker 1: Right.

426
00:26:38,119 --> 00:26:41,000
Speaker 8: So, we've seen over the course of the last month

427
00:26:41,280 --> 00:26:43,440
Speaker 8: what Dogs has exposed.

428
00:26:42,880 --> 00:26:45,560
Speaker 1: With regard to fraud, waste, and abuse. And we're done

429
00:26:45,600 --> 00:26:47,600
Speaker 1: with that. And you know what, you're going to have

430
00:26:47,640 --> 00:26:51,000
Speaker 1: people who love fraud, who love waste, who love.

431
00:26:50,960 --> 00:26:54,520
Speaker 4: Trains to nowhere with all of us up here, we

432
00:26:54,640 --> 00:26:55,480
Speaker 4: do not love fraud.

433
00:26:55,560 --> 00:26:56,280
Speaker 1: Rice Interviews.

434
00:26:56,400 --> 00:26:59,760
Speaker 8: We are going to use the taxpayer money efficiently.

435
00:27:01,119 --> 00:27:01,680
Speaker 1: And this is.

436
00:27:03,160 --> 00:27:06,000
Speaker 2: The shot shouting build the rail. By the way, Michael

437
00:27:06,040 --> 00:27:08,560
Speaker 2: Monks says that was about twenty five people, but the

438
00:27:08,640 --> 00:27:12,840
Speaker 2: acoustics of the environment made it sound like there were hundreds.

439
00:27:12,840 --> 00:27:15,719
Speaker 2: There weren't that many people. Michael said, they look kind

440
00:27:15,720 --> 00:27:21,560
Speaker 2: of ragged. It's a hired crowd. I wish media would

441
00:27:21,560 --> 00:27:27,960
Speaker 2: stop covering these protesters. They're often hired, they're often fake protesters.

442
00:27:28,400 --> 00:27:31,160
Speaker 2: And what Sean Duffy said is right, you're shouting build

443
00:27:31,160 --> 00:27:36,840
Speaker 2: the rail. Well, they spent sixteen billion, they had seventeen years.

444
00:27:37,480 --> 00:27:44,240
Speaker 1: It's over. They didn't build the rail. We had We had.

445
00:27:44,119 --> 00:27:48,720
Speaker 2: Brown and knwsome governing for the last fourteen years, and

446
00:27:48,800 --> 00:27:51,600
Speaker 2: Schwarzenegger who was a supporter. So we had the government

447
00:27:51,640 --> 00:27:56,639
Speaker 2: in place. Assembly the state said it carb to provide

448
00:27:56,680 --> 00:28:01,239
Speaker 2: tax money the governors, and they build it because they

449
00:28:01,240 --> 00:28:07,840
Speaker 2: didn't intend to build it. See, it's another racket. It's like,

450
00:28:08,080 --> 00:28:11,840
Speaker 2: it's like Newsome and his administration doesn't care to if

451
00:28:11,840 --> 00:28:15,040
Speaker 2: they send a forty three time rapist into Junifer Hills.

452
00:28:15,200 --> 00:28:18,560
Speaker 2: They also don't care if they see. What they're clever

453
00:28:18,800 --> 00:28:22,040
Speaker 2: doing is they try to position this as a fight

454
00:28:22,720 --> 00:28:28,640
Speaker 2: between over the climate, a fight between environmentalists and those

455
00:28:28,680 --> 00:28:31,399
Speaker 2: who want to continue fouling the environment by driving their

456
00:28:31,440 --> 00:28:33,200
Speaker 2: cars around and not taking the train.

457
00:28:33,640 --> 00:28:34,639
Speaker 1: It's like, no, it's not.

458
00:28:35,880 --> 00:28:38,920
Speaker 2: It's you set up a project to make yourselves billions

459
00:28:38,960 --> 00:28:42,440
Speaker 2: of dollars and you didn't follow through and build the

460
00:28:42,520 --> 00:28:45,600
Speaker 2: rail because it's too difficult to build the rail. It's

461
00:28:45,640 --> 00:28:48,920
Speaker 2: way too expensive. They originally said thirty three billion. That

462
00:28:49,040 --> 00:28:52,680
Speaker 2: was a lie. These aren't cost overruns. This is what

463
00:28:52,760 --> 00:28:57,600
Speaker 2: it costs. But they spent all the money and got

464
00:28:57,640 --> 00:29:01,240
Speaker 2: no rail out of it. I can't tell you how

465
00:29:01,960 --> 00:29:06,680
Speaker 2: how complex their plans are to rip people, rip taxpayers

466
00:29:06,720 --> 00:29:09,720
Speaker 2: off for billions of dollars. It's all thought out well

467
00:29:09,760 --> 00:29:12,160
Speaker 2: in advance. They know it's not going to be done

468
00:29:12,200 --> 00:29:14,200
Speaker 2: by twenty twenty. They know it's not going to cost

469
00:29:14,280 --> 00:29:16,400
Speaker 2: thirty three billion. They know there's going to be no

470
00:29:16,520 --> 00:29:19,720
Speaker 2: rail going from Sacramento to San Francisco to La to

471
00:29:19,720 --> 00:29:23,600
Speaker 2: Anaheim and San Diego. They knew all that, but they

472
00:29:23,920 --> 00:29:29,959
Speaker 2: manipulated you with a phony campaign, and they got fifty

473
00:29:29,960 --> 00:29:31,880
Speaker 2: two percent of the public to vote for high speed

474
00:29:31,960 --> 00:29:34,440
Speaker 2: rail because it sounds really cool. The same way they

475
00:29:34,480 --> 00:29:38,520
Speaker 2: lied to you about Prop forty seven. I told you

476
00:29:38,560 --> 00:29:40,480
Speaker 2: it was going to reduce crime, it was going to

477
00:29:40,480 --> 00:29:45,200
Speaker 2: make neighborhoods in schools safer. They lie to you, and

478
00:29:45,240 --> 00:29:49,160
Speaker 2: they emotionally manipulate you, and more than half the public

479
00:29:49,760 --> 00:29:53,520
Speaker 2: falls for it every time. And then ten years later

480
00:29:53,560 --> 00:29:55,280
Speaker 2: you look around and say, oh my god, there's all

481
00:29:55,320 --> 00:29:58,360
Speaker 2: these drug addicts and mental patients and all these criminals

482
00:29:58,440 --> 00:29:59,480
Speaker 2: and thieves running around.

483
00:29:59,520 --> 00:30:00,000
Speaker 1: What happened?

484
00:30:00,000 --> 00:30:04,040
Speaker 2: And you said, you said you think they didn't know that.

485
00:30:05,040 --> 00:30:06,680
Speaker 2: Of course they knew that. They knew if they weren't

486
00:30:06,720 --> 00:30:10,480
Speaker 2: going to put in thieves and drug addicts in jail,

487
00:30:10,520 --> 00:30:12,240
Speaker 2: of course they were going to run all over the street.

488
00:30:12,280 --> 00:30:13,000
Speaker 1: They don't care.

489
00:30:14,400 --> 00:30:17,880
Speaker 2: They have this fanatical ideology where the state has no

490
00:30:18,000 --> 00:30:20,440
Speaker 2: right to put human beings away into prison. So that's

491
00:30:20,480 --> 00:30:24,680
Speaker 2: how we got Prop forty seven. And the cover story

492
00:30:24,720 --> 00:30:28,280
Speaker 2: on this is climate change. And they've manipulated a whole

493
00:30:28,320 --> 00:30:31,120
Speaker 2: generation of people into believing that we're all about to

494
00:30:31,240 --> 00:30:34,360
Speaker 2: die because the Earth is going to overheat. No, it's not,

495
00:30:34,600 --> 00:30:38,560
Speaker 2: it's not going to overheat. We're not going to die.

496
00:30:38,680 --> 00:30:42,640
Speaker 2: This is all hysterical emotional manipulation, and it created this

497
00:30:42,760 --> 00:30:47,000
Speaker 2: huge pool of money to blow on high speed rail.

498
00:30:47,520 --> 00:30:52,400
Speaker 2: Trade unions are profiting from it, executives are profiting from it.

499
00:30:52,720 --> 00:30:57,400
Speaker 2: Consulting companies, environmental and engineering and legal consulting, and all

500
00:30:57,480 --> 00:30:59,200
Speaker 2: the rest, all the parasites.

501
00:30:59,760 --> 00:31:01,040
Speaker 1: They are making billions.

502
00:31:01,880 --> 00:31:07,400
Speaker 2: You are getting your tax money stolen because you always

503
00:31:07,640 --> 00:31:13,160
Speaker 2: fall for their phony emotional arguments, and people are so

504
00:31:13,320 --> 00:31:16,920
Speaker 2: caught up in these emotional issues they don't understand guys

505
00:31:17,000 --> 00:31:21,560
Speaker 2: like Trump and Musk who are not emotional in that way.

506
00:31:21,760 --> 00:31:24,800
Speaker 2: They're not giving you phony emotional arguments. They're telling you, hey,

507
00:31:24,800 --> 00:31:28,120
Speaker 2: we're thirty six trillion dollars in debt. Can't do this anymore.

508
00:31:28,480 --> 00:31:31,200
Speaker 2: Sean Duffy is telling you, hey, we spent sixteen billion.

509
00:31:31,200 --> 00:31:35,320
Speaker 2: There's no track laid down, there are no trains.

510
00:31:35,360 --> 00:31:37,160
Speaker 1: Not emotional. It's facts, it's math.

511
00:31:37,720 --> 00:31:39,840
Speaker 2: And some people can't handle the facts in the math

512
00:31:39,920 --> 00:31:43,760
Speaker 2: because they're so used to emotional arguments. Take the emotion

513
00:31:43,880 --> 00:31:46,840
Speaker 2: out of it. They had seventeen years, sixteen billion, You

514
00:31:46,880 --> 00:31:49,240
Speaker 2: got nothing for it. How many times are you going

515
00:31:49,320 --> 00:31:52,760
Speaker 2: to be bent over for this one? How many times?

516
00:31:53,800 --> 00:31:56,600
Speaker 2: How many times thirty six trillion dollars in debt in Washington?

517
00:31:56,680 --> 00:31:58,800
Speaker 2: How many times you're going to be bent over with

518
00:31:58,880 --> 00:32:02,320
Speaker 2: another tax increase? All right, we come back. We're gonna

519
00:32:02,320 --> 00:32:05,280
Speaker 2: talk to Susan Shelley from the Howard Jarvis Taxpayers Association.

520
00:32:05,920 --> 00:32:09,720
Speaker 2: They are full of facts in math too, not emotional arguments.
