00:00:29,760 --> 00:00:32,840
Speaker 1: That deliver me a trash can the whole freaking city.

11
00:00:32,840 --> 00:00:35,760
Speaker 1: How many thousands of people want on strike? They can't

12
00:00:35,760 --> 00:00:37,360
Speaker 1: deliver one trash can to my house?

13
00:00:38,560 --> 00:00:38,960
Speaker 2: All right.

14
00:00:39,040 --> 00:00:41,239
Speaker 1: So it's been kind of an unusual year when it

15
00:00:41,240 --> 00:00:44,160
Speaker 1: comes to fires. I mean, in summer's passed, and certainly

16
00:00:44,200 --> 00:00:47,280
Speaker 1: into the fall it's off in California. It gets a

17
00:00:47,280 --> 00:00:49,960
Speaker 1: lot of attention for fires. A few months ago it

18
00:00:50,000 --> 00:00:54,400
Speaker 1: was Canada. Remember the smoke that was blowing into the Northeast.

19
00:00:54,000 --> 00:00:55,360
Speaker 2: And the Midwest. Yeah.

20
00:00:55,440 --> 00:00:58,280
Speaker 3: Right now, though, the big story is Hawaii, particularly what's

21
00:00:58,320 --> 00:01:00,800
Speaker 3: been going on on Maui. We're gonna get an update

22
00:01:00,880 --> 00:01:03,600
Speaker 3: on the story and the damage and what's being done.

23
00:01:03,600 --> 00:01:05,600
Speaker 3: From Alex Stone, ABC News for Camp five.

24
00:01:05,720 --> 00:01:08,600
Speaker 1: There's a lot of devastation, there really is, and it

25
00:01:08,640 --> 00:01:12,440
Speaker 1: continues to get worse. The governor saying at six thirty

26
00:01:12,480 --> 00:01:14,480
Speaker 1: our time tonight he's going to give an update. He

27
00:01:14,560 --> 00:01:17,039
Speaker 1: was on a trip, he was on vacation and then

28
00:01:17,400 --> 00:01:19,440
Speaker 1: made his way back, so he's going to be briefing.

29
00:01:19,440 --> 00:01:21,399
Speaker 2: And the number is probably going to go up.

30
00:01:21,440 --> 00:01:25,399
Speaker 1: But thirty six dead at least right now, and they

31
00:01:25,440 --> 00:01:29,000
Speaker 1: believe that number is probably a lot higher once they

32
00:01:29,080 --> 00:01:31,760
Speaker 1: really get in and begin going through the neighborhoods. But

33
00:01:32,360 --> 00:01:35,840
Speaker 1: Lahina not only a big tourist area that many of

34
00:01:35,920 --> 00:01:37,960
Speaker 1: us have been to if you were staying in Kannapolya

35
00:01:38,040 --> 00:01:41,000
Speaker 1: and then you go on to Lahina, but home to

36
00:01:41,000 --> 00:01:44,160
Speaker 1: twelve thousand people, lots of Hawaiian history in Lahina, the

37
00:01:44,200 --> 00:01:48,800
Speaker 1: original capital of the Hawaiian Kingdom. The big Banyan tree downtown,

38
00:01:49,040 --> 00:01:53,200
Speaker 1: it burned. It's believed it's probably gone. Maybe they can

39
00:01:53,440 --> 00:01:57,240
Speaker 1: try to save it. But this is Amandicassidy lost her home,

40
00:01:57,320 --> 00:01:59,200
Speaker 1: she tells us as she lives in Lohina.

41
00:01:59,400 --> 00:02:01,640
Speaker 2: Most of high is gone, it's gone, and then there

42
00:02:01,640 --> 00:02:02,320
Speaker 2: are the missing.

43
00:02:02,400 --> 00:02:04,520
Speaker 1: We just heard from a guy who was one of

44
00:02:04,560 --> 00:02:07,000
Speaker 1: those who jumped into the ocean. He said he was

45
00:02:07,040 --> 00:02:09,760
Speaker 1: at an intersection. About forty of the people who were

46
00:02:09,760 --> 00:02:12,799
Speaker 1: there could not get away, so they ran out of

47
00:02:12,840 --> 00:02:16,640
Speaker 1: their cars jumped into the ocean. He was with his girlfriend.

48
00:02:16,720 --> 00:02:19,080
Speaker 1: He has not seen her since, he doesn't know where

49
00:02:19,120 --> 00:02:21,680
Speaker 1: she is. She is among the missing. There is no

50
00:02:21,720 --> 00:02:24,400
Speaker 1: official missing list, so we don't have a number of

51
00:02:24,440 --> 00:02:26,680
Speaker 1: that yet, but there are a lot of stories of

52
00:02:26,720 --> 00:02:30,440
Speaker 1: that that he has burns on him now. The Coastguard

53
00:02:30,480 --> 00:02:33,320
Speaker 1: made rescues, but he doesn't know where his girlfriend is.

54
00:02:33,400 --> 00:02:36,320
Speaker 1: And then there's Steve Scott. He's looking for his wife.

55
00:02:36,360 --> 00:02:39,080
Speaker 1: He thinks she's alive, but doesn't know where she is.

56
00:02:39,639 --> 00:02:42,440
Speaker 2: I think she's safe, but I haven't found her yet.

57
00:02:42,720 --> 00:02:45,320
Speaker 1: So there are people all over the place. A few

58
00:02:45,360 --> 00:02:48,760
Speaker 1: minutes ago, buses pulled up to the Maui Airport and

59
00:02:48,800 --> 00:02:52,040
Speaker 1: they were full of people from the resorts in Kannapoli.

60
00:02:52,160 --> 00:02:54,600
Speaker 1: You know, there's a west in there and a Hyatt

61
00:02:54,720 --> 00:02:57,440
Speaker 1: and Merriot vacation club and a bunch of other ones

62
00:02:57,680 --> 00:03:00,880
Speaker 1: Sheridan and they were told, you can't stay here, you

63
00:03:00,960 --> 00:03:03,639
Speaker 1: gotta go. They don't have any flights out. They don't

64
00:03:03,639 --> 00:03:05,960
Speaker 1: know where they're going to go. The airport right now

65
00:03:06,200 --> 00:03:10,799
Speaker 1: is essentially a refugee center of people sleeping on the ground,

66
00:03:10,960 --> 00:03:16,120
Speaker 1: standing around packed in there. Airlines are flying in empty

67
00:03:16,200 --> 00:03:20,960
Speaker 1: planes as evacuation flights. United they're sending in big planes.

68
00:03:21,000 --> 00:03:24,720
Speaker 1: They've canceled their flights, but sending them an empty American

69
00:03:25,280 --> 00:03:29,280
Speaker 1: Alaska Southwest. They're all doing it now, trying to get

70
00:03:29,320 --> 00:03:32,920
Speaker 1: them out, and it's not quick enough. But vacationer has

71
00:03:33,000 --> 00:03:35,480
Speaker 1: been told you got to go. The mayor of Maui

72
00:03:35,480 --> 00:03:35,960
Speaker 1: telling us.

73
00:03:36,000 --> 00:03:41,480
Speaker 4: Lights on various airlines they were brought over empty and

74
00:03:41,520 --> 00:03:45,840
Speaker 4: they left with twists, seeking either to go back to

75
00:03:45,880 --> 00:03:47,680
Speaker 4: the mainland or to go to Oahu.

76
00:03:47,800 --> 00:03:49,040
Speaker 1: And a lot of people don't know where they're going

77
00:03:49,040 --> 00:03:50,160
Speaker 1: to go. Are they going to come to la Are

78
00:03:50,200 --> 00:03:51,600
Speaker 1: they going to go to San Francisco? Are they going

79
00:03:51,640 --> 00:03:53,440
Speaker 1: to go to Honolulu? And then figure it out there.

80
00:03:53,480 --> 00:03:55,280
Speaker 1: Being in a big airport, they don't have a lot

81
00:03:55,320 --> 00:03:57,040
Speaker 1: of say in it. You kind of go wherever you're

82
00:03:57,240 --> 00:03:59,560
Speaker 1: able to get on a flight. The other thing is

83
00:03:59,560 --> 00:04:02,720
Speaker 1: those come from Cannapaly say that they haven't had any

84
00:04:02,920 --> 00:04:05,800
Speaker 1: electricity or any cell phone service since Tuesday.

85
00:04:06,080 --> 00:04:08,440
Speaker 2: They had no idea how bad this was.

86
00:04:08,800 --> 00:04:11,080
Speaker 1: That they were not getting communication, so some of them

87
00:04:11,080 --> 00:04:13,360
Speaker 1: are just finding out about Lahina and how bad it

88
00:04:13,400 --> 00:04:16,479
Speaker 1: really is. As they get to the airport, come back

89
00:04:16,520 --> 00:04:19,600
Speaker 1: into too communication right around there. Then the bodies the

90
00:04:19,880 --> 00:04:22,280
Speaker 1: mayors saying they are going to find more.

91
00:04:22,080 --> 00:04:25,800
Speaker 4: We're continuing to go through. There have been casualties, we

92
00:04:25,920 --> 00:04:31,159
Speaker 4: have found, you know, our people that did not make

93
00:04:31,200 --> 00:04:31,640
Speaker 4: it through.

94
00:04:31,480 --> 00:04:36,080
Speaker 1: This air But Guyaa was raining this morning, briefly, but

95
00:04:36,160 --> 00:04:40,520
Speaker 1: pretty heavy rain throughout the island and rainbows up above.

96
00:04:40,600 --> 00:04:43,600
Speaker 1: You think of those beautiful Hawaiian rainbows. That's what we've

97
00:04:43,640 --> 00:04:46,560
Speaker 1: seen this morning. So the fires, it seems, aren't going

98
00:04:46,640 --> 00:04:50,280
Speaker 1: to be the threat now because of the rain and

99
00:04:50,320 --> 00:04:52,839
Speaker 1: the winds have calmed down. But it is now going

100
00:04:52,880 --> 00:04:56,240
Speaker 1: in and finding the devastation, finding those who are killed,

101
00:04:56,480 --> 00:04:58,320
Speaker 1: people finding out they have no homes.

102
00:04:58,360 --> 00:05:01,120
Speaker 2: That it's the aftermath of it. Now as the numbers

103
00:05:01,160 --> 00:05:04,440
Speaker 2: go up, they're able to have enough resources to fight

104
00:05:04,480 --> 00:05:04,719
Speaker 2: all this.

105
00:05:05,839 --> 00:05:09,760
Speaker 1: Generally, you know, it's every everybody's helping everybody out. The

106
00:05:10,080 --> 00:05:13,200
Speaker 1: National Guards, helping active duty army. They they brought in

107
00:05:13,240 --> 00:05:18,279
Speaker 1: their helicopters, the firefighters who are on the islands there,

108
00:05:18,360 --> 00:05:21,800
Speaker 1: they're there, so yeah, it's it's all hands on deck

109
00:05:21,839 --> 00:05:23,400
Speaker 1: and then they say they're gonna be able to do it.

110
00:05:24,520 --> 00:05:26,360
Speaker 2: All right, Alex, thank you very much for that report.

111
00:05:26,560 --> 00:05:29,200
Speaker 1: You got it, nice, guys, Alex Tone ABC News for

112
00:05:29,279 --> 00:05:32,799
Speaker 1: KFI about the wildfires on the Hawaiian Islands and particularly Maui,

113
00:05:32,839 --> 00:05:37,359
Speaker 1: and in particular the town of Lehina was a beautiful, charming,

114
00:05:37,760 --> 00:05:38,440
Speaker 1: quaite town.

115
00:05:39,240 --> 00:05:39,680
Speaker 2: You were there.

116
00:05:39,720 --> 00:05:42,560
Speaker 1: I was there twice. Yeah, last time a while ago

117
00:05:42,640 --> 00:05:45,920
Speaker 1: when the kids were small. We went with friends and

118
00:05:46,000 --> 00:05:48,080
Speaker 1: it was it was I remember seeing the banyon tree.

119
00:05:48,120 --> 00:05:51,000
Speaker 1: He was talking about, have you seen a banyon tree? No,

120
00:05:51,880 --> 00:05:54,120
Speaker 1: they're just looking at a picture of it. It's it's

121
00:05:54,120 --> 00:05:57,680
Speaker 1: a tree that grows multiple trucks and covers a very

122
00:05:57,800 --> 00:06:01,320
Speaker 1: large area. It looks like it be you know, ten, fifteen,

123
00:06:01,440 --> 00:06:05,360
Speaker 1: twenty different trees. It's all one tree. It grows in

124
00:06:05,360 --> 00:06:07,520
Speaker 1: a most unusual way. I don't think any other tree

125
00:06:07,560 --> 00:06:11,400
Speaker 1: grows like that. And I saw another one recently down

126
00:06:11,440 --> 00:06:16,159
Speaker 1: in Florida. There's one on the Thomas Edison property down

127
00:06:16,160 --> 00:06:18,760
Speaker 1: in Fort Myers. And in fact, because I mean it's

128
00:06:18,800 --> 00:06:22,360
Speaker 1: like it's like its own forest in a way. And

129
00:06:22,440 --> 00:06:25,560
Speaker 1: when I was down in Florida. I asked the caretaker.

130
00:06:25,600 --> 00:06:30,000
Speaker 1: I said, this is one, one single entity. He goes, yeah,

131
00:06:30,480 --> 00:06:32,040
Speaker 1: I gotta looks like there's twenty of them. He goes, no,

132
00:06:32,080 --> 00:06:35,240
Speaker 1: this is all one. This is what they do. And

133
00:06:35,480 --> 00:06:38,680
Speaker 1: it's a really beautiful thing. The one in Leahena, it's

134
00:06:39,320 --> 00:06:42,080
Speaker 1: fifty years old. Fifty years old. That Banian tree you're

135
00:06:42,120 --> 00:06:44,560
Speaker 1: talking about, is that big Maui landmark.

136
00:06:44,279 --> 00:06:46,920
Speaker 2: And all those people what started the fire that had

137
00:06:46,920 --> 00:06:48,719
Speaker 2: spread so fast and.

138
00:06:48,920 --> 00:06:50,880
Speaker 3: Well, I'm looking at a story about the winds. It

139
00:06:50,920 --> 00:06:54,480
Speaker 3: was kind of a strange combination of things. First of all,

140
00:06:54,520 --> 00:06:57,120
Speaker 3: they did have drought, they did have a lot of

141
00:06:57,200 --> 00:07:01,320
Speaker 3: dried out vegetation, but long winds. Gusts have been as

142
00:07:01,400 --> 00:07:03,760
Speaker 3: high as sixty seven in Maui County up to eighty

143
00:07:03,800 --> 00:07:08,880
Speaker 3: two in Hawaii and Honolulu counties. And it became because

144
00:07:08,880 --> 00:07:11,880
Speaker 3: there was a big difference in pressure, high pressure to

145
00:07:11,920 --> 00:07:14,240
Speaker 3: the north of the islands and low pressure associated with

146
00:07:14,240 --> 00:07:15,920
Speaker 3: that hurricane that passed to the south.

147
00:07:16,520 --> 00:07:18,120
Speaker 2: Differences between these two.

148
00:07:18,080 --> 00:07:23,080
Speaker 3: Pressures, atmospheric pressures, led the winds to become very gusty,

149
00:07:23,520 --> 00:07:24,720
Speaker 3: and that resulted in.

150
00:07:24,880 --> 00:07:27,600
Speaker 1: That's where the wind comes from, a rapid change in

151
00:07:27,640 --> 00:07:30,960
Speaker 1: air pressure. It's the same kind of winds from the

152
00:07:31,000 --> 00:07:34,480
Speaker 1: San Anas I've been producing the same kind of result, right,

153
00:07:34,560 --> 00:07:38,240
Speaker 1: but these, especially in this smaller area over these islands,

154
00:07:38,320 --> 00:07:39,360
Speaker 1: it's really intense.

155
00:07:40,040 --> 00:07:40,400
Speaker 2: Says here.

156
00:07:40,400 --> 00:07:42,520
Speaker 3: Well, it's not unusual for high pressure to set up

157
00:07:42,520 --> 00:07:45,920
Speaker 3: north of Hawaii into usher and strong east to west breezes.

158
00:07:46,240 --> 00:07:49,960
Speaker 3: The added presence of the Hurricane Dora intensified the winds

159
00:07:49,960 --> 00:07:53,760
Speaker 3: by increasing the pressure difference over the region. But you heard,

160
00:07:53,920 --> 00:07:56,640
Speaker 3: as Alex reported, and we're hearing things are starting to

161
00:07:56,640 --> 00:07:59,480
Speaker 3: settle down with the winds, which would certainly be and

162
00:07:59,560 --> 00:08:02,240
Speaker 3: you know from fighting fires in California, that's always a

163
00:08:02,280 --> 00:08:02,920

180
00:08:51,760 --> 00:08:54,680

184
00:09:06,880 --> 00:09:09,600
Speaker 6: You know, it's a short road, front street. If you

185
00:09:09,600 --> 00:09:11,720
Speaker 6: guys walked down the street, you see it's completely burnt

186
00:09:12,840 --> 00:09:15,800
Speaker 6: and we just if I saw somebody, I helped them.

187
00:09:15,840 --> 00:09:18,160
Speaker 6: But I felt like these guys wasn't gonna get help

188
00:09:19,600 --> 00:09:23,160
Speaker 6: because I seen so much people walking. And that's what

189
00:09:23,200 --> 00:09:25,040
Speaker 6: we do in line. We don't leave people behind him,

190
00:09:25,640 --> 00:09:28,319
Speaker 6: you know, That's just how we roll.

191
00:09:29,280 --> 00:09:33,200
Speaker 1: That's how we roll. Anyway, bad timing. The poor governor

192
00:09:33,320 --> 00:09:36,520
Speaker 1: was out on a vacation trip when there broke.

193
00:09:36,600 --> 00:09:38,560
Speaker 2: It's every night there for a governor. I know.

194
00:09:38,600 --> 00:09:41,199
Speaker 3: It's the first day it was the acting governor. Like

195
00:09:41,200 --> 00:09:43,480
Speaker 3: what happened to the governor actually just picked a strange

196
00:09:43,480 --> 00:09:49,360
Speaker 3: time day He's back start acting, and Biden declared an emergency, right,

197
00:09:49,760 --> 00:09:54,640
Speaker 3: and Kamala Harris sends her condolences and help. Yeah, yeah,

198
00:09:54,720 --> 00:09:57,960
Speaker 3: the vice president, her condolences will put out fires just

199
00:09:58,320 --> 00:09:59,000
Speaker 3: by itself.

200
00:10:00,320 --> 00:10:03,120
Speaker 2: What an hour coming up? After two thirty?

201
00:10:03,640 --> 00:10:05,840
Speaker 3: How old it has happened with Johnny Kenshaw stories on

202
00:10:05,880 --> 00:10:07,520
Speaker 3: the forty ninth and fiftieth States.

203
00:10:07,720 --> 00:10:10,640
Speaker 2: How's that? Yep Alaska?

204
00:10:11,040 --> 00:10:13,880
Speaker 3: The mayor of Anchorage announced recently that he may have

205
00:10:13,960 --> 00:10:18,079
Speaker 3: to send the vagrants to la during the winter because

206
00:10:18,120 --> 00:10:20,679
Speaker 3: it's harsh up here and we do not have the

207
00:10:20,679 --> 00:10:24,679
Speaker 3: shelter space. His name is Dave Bronson. This prompted the

208
00:10:24,720 --> 00:10:27,320
Speaker 3: El Segundo Times to send a reporter all the way

209
00:10:27,360 --> 00:10:29,400
Speaker 3: to Anchorage to walk around with him.

210
00:10:29,600 --> 00:10:31,599
Speaker 2: Yes, we'll go through the story.

211
00:10:31,280 --> 00:10:36,520
Speaker 1: Scold the mayor after two Well, I threw a fit

212
00:10:36,880 --> 00:10:40,559
Speaker 1: just at the beginning of the story because not the reporter,

213
00:10:41,200 --> 00:10:44,800
Speaker 1: but she starts with the mayor being confronted by a vagrant.

214
00:10:44,760 --> 00:10:46,959
Speaker 2: And I just got really irated the vagrants, so me

215
00:10:47,080 --> 00:10:48,160
Speaker 2: too will read too.

216
00:10:48,480 --> 00:10:50,520
Speaker 1: These are great. This is the heart of the problem.

217
00:10:50,559 --> 00:10:54,760
Speaker 1: These are ungrateful, entitled vagrants. They really think the world

218
00:10:54,840 --> 00:10:57,880
Speaker 1: owes them everything that's right because they.

219
00:10:57,960 --> 00:11:00,520
Speaker 2: He started yelling at the mayor and you'll find out what. Yeah,

220
00:11:00,559 --> 00:11:01,719
Speaker 2: it's infuriating.

221
00:11:03,160 --> 00:11:08,079
Speaker 1: Uh oh, here's an update on the climate protesters in Europe, John,

222
00:11:08,120 --> 00:11:11,720
Speaker 1: you've been watching that story. Yeah, they've been facing art

223
00:11:11,760 --> 00:11:16,040
Speaker 1: and blocking traffic, those little toddlers. There were stories from

224
00:11:16,040 --> 00:11:20,079
Speaker 1: Germany and from London where Yeah, and the stories that

225
00:11:20,160 --> 00:11:22,720
Speaker 1: also made news was people confronting them and dragging them

226
00:11:22,720 --> 00:11:24,520
Speaker 1: out of the way when they try to block traffic,

227
00:11:24,559 --> 00:11:26,760
Speaker 1: which is what you should do. It's sort of like

228
00:11:26,800 --> 00:11:28,480
Speaker 1: the Seven eleven guys beating the robber.

229
00:11:28,760 --> 00:11:29,000
Speaker 2: Yeah.

230
00:11:29,040 --> 00:11:30,800
Speaker 3: To me, it's the same kind of thing. My hero,

231
00:11:30,920 --> 00:11:33,600
Speaker 3: someoney's gonna ruin your day by blocking traffic. You get

232
00:11:33,600 --> 00:11:34,600
Speaker 3: out and pull them by the hair.

233
00:11:34,720 --> 00:11:36,240
Speaker 2: Yeah. No, it's like that German woman.

234
00:11:36,440 --> 00:11:40,880
Speaker 1: You grab this protester and grab them by the ankles,

235
00:11:40,920 --> 00:11:42,800
Speaker 1: right so that their face skids.

236
00:11:43,040 --> 00:11:46,000
Speaker 2: They're face down and its skids on the asphalt. Good one.

237
00:11:46,080 --> 00:11:49,880
Speaker 3: They're not gonna block any more traffic after that. No, No,

238
00:11:49,920 --> 00:11:51,240
Speaker 3: they may not have any face left.

239
00:11:51,280 --> 00:11:54,560
Speaker 2: They did. They lose face. They lose face right on

240
00:11:54,600 --> 00:11:56,600
Speaker 2: the road there they.

241
00:11:56,280 --> 00:11:59,120
Speaker 1: So the story is that Germany, France, and Great Britain

242
00:11:59,200 --> 00:12:02,240
Speaker 1: and some other European countries have decided to go after

243
00:12:02,920 --> 00:12:03,800
Speaker 1: the protesters.

244
00:12:04,280 --> 00:12:04,960
Speaker 2: The groups are.

245
00:12:04,880 --> 00:12:08,679
Speaker 1: Called Extinction Rebellion and another one's called the Last Generation.

246
00:12:09,679 --> 00:12:13,439
Speaker 1: They have been responsible for dozens of protests. Oh yeah,

247
00:12:13,480 --> 00:12:16,719
Speaker 1: they've glued themselves to building too. I forgot about that one.

248
00:12:16,720 --> 00:12:18,560
Speaker 1: That's another one of their tricks, like the glue themselves

249
00:12:18,559 --> 00:12:22,959
Speaker 1: to things. You know, zero tolerance for this. They should

250
00:12:23,000 --> 00:12:26,959
Speaker 1: be taken, dumped and glue and thrown on asphalt somewhere

251
00:12:27,440 --> 00:12:30,120
Speaker 1: in a parking lot and just leave them to the elements.

252
00:12:30,960 --> 00:12:32,840
Speaker 3: And what are you supposed to say when they do this, Oh,

253
00:12:32,880 --> 00:12:34,800
Speaker 3: we're sorry. I'll stop using my air conditioner and I

254
00:12:34,840 --> 00:12:36,120
Speaker 3: won't fly to Europe this summer.

255
00:12:36,520 --> 00:12:40,240
Speaker 1: Okay, they're having no effect on everyone. In fact, I

256
00:12:40,280 --> 00:12:44,560
Speaker 1: think there was at one protest a counter protesters. Counter

257
00:12:44,600 --> 00:12:47,680
Speaker 1: protesters showed up and said, stop pissing us off, stop

258
00:12:47,679 --> 00:12:50,239
Speaker 1: doing Yeah they did. Okay, you're not winning any converts.

259
00:12:50,480 --> 00:12:53,920
Speaker 3: And actually what they called themselves stop Pissing us Off group, that.

260
00:12:53,880 --> 00:12:55,280
Speaker 2: Was the name of the group. And the thing is

261
00:12:55,280 --> 00:12:56,560
Speaker 2: they're not winning any converts.

262
00:12:56,880 --> 00:13:00,240
Speaker 1: And you know, the amount of fossil fuels increased again

263
00:13:00,280 --> 00:13:03,120
Speaker 1: this year to its highest level ever. For all this

264
00:13:03,320 --> 00:13:06,480
Speaker 1: talk and all this prattle. It has not reduced the

265
00:13:06,520 --> 00:13:08,720
Speaker 1: amount of fossil fuels being burned around the world.

266
00:13:09,120 --> 00:13:12,040
Speaker 3: They need to block traffic in China. See how well

267
00:13:12,080 --> 00:13:15,360
Speaker 3: that goes. You notice nobody goes to China India. Yeah,

268
00:13:15,400 --> 00:13:18,280
Speaker 3: it's really easy to do it in Europe because they're so.

269
00:13:18,960 --> 00:13:21,160
Speaker 1: Garcetti should be blocking traffic in India. He was a

270
00:13:21,160 --> 00:13:24,920
Speaker 1: big climate guy, right, he's a lot of fossil fuels.

271
00:13:25,000 --> 00:13:29,000
Speaker 2: What are what he thinks of India? Yeah? Oh he

272
00:13:29,080 --> 00:13:30,120
Speaker 2: wants to come home by now.

273
00:13:30,200 --> 00:13:33,520
Speaker 1: Yeah, somebody asked me about him today.

274
00:13:33,520 --> 00:13:34,719
Speaker 2: Did he ever got that last good job?

275
00:13:34,800 --> 00:13:34,959
Speaker 4: Yeah?

276
00:13:35,120 --> 00:13:36,720
Speaker 2: That the last good job, they meant, that India job.

277
00:13:36,800 --> 00:13:40,040
Speaker 2: Yeah he did. He's gone. Yeah, not heard from since.

278
00:13:40,679 --> 00:13:43,280
Speaker 3: So apparently law enforcement in France and Germany are going

279
00:13:43,320 --> 00:13:47,120
Speaker 3: to use wire taps and global positioning to track down

280
00:13:47,120 --> 00:13:49,760
Speaker 3: members of the groups after they carry out before they

281
00:13:49,760 --> 00:13:54,480
Speaker 3: carry out their demonstrations. So one member of the Last

282
00:13:54,520 --> 00:13:58,280
Speaker 3: Generation was arrested in his home after announcing plans to

283
00:13:58,320 --> 00:14:01,520
Speaker 3: glue himself to a major road in a germancy. If

284
00:14:01,520 --> 00:14:05,080
Speaker 3: somebody glues himself to a major road, I'm sorry you

285
00:14:05,160 --> 00:14:09,720
Speaker 3: run them over. Yes, that's that's all there is to it, right,

286
00:14:09,880 --> 00:14:11,600
Speaker 3: You want me to wait here till you unglue yourself

287
00:14:11,640 --> 00:14:14,079
Speaker 3: or the police take you away. No, you put your

288
00:14:14,160 --> 00:14:17,439
Speaker 3: You made the decision to glue yourself. You put yourself

289
00:14:17,679 --> 00:14:21,320
Speaker 3: in play. You glue yourself to the road, you end

290
00:14:21,400 --> 00:14:22,480
Speaker 3: up getting flatten.

291
00:14:22,240 --> 00:14:28,520
Speaker 1: Like a pizza one of those roadrunner cartoons. Remember, Yes,

292
00:14:28,640 --> 00:14:30,760
Speaker 1: coyote would get flattened, and then he'd have to peel

293
00:14:30,840 --> 00:14:31,800
Speaker 1: himself up off the.

294
00:14:31,800 --> 00:14:37,800
Speaker 2: Road, walk away shame. Then he'd shake himself. That'd become

295
00:14:37,840 --> 00:14:38,800
Speaker 2: full again. Right.

296
00:14:39,960 --> 00:14:43,400
Speaker 3: Britain passed legislation in May making it illegal to glue

297
00:14:43,480 --> 00:14:47,280
Speaker 3: or lock yourself to public or private property. Roadbop lord

298
00:14:47,320 --> 00:14:50,440
Speaker 3: blocks are big in Berlin, it says. Police claim they

299
00:14:50,480 --> 00:14:52,760
Speaker 3: have spent more than four hundred and eighty thousand hours

300
00:14:53,000 --> 00:14:56,640
Speaker 3: responding to forty five hundred incidents committed by climate activists

301
00:14:56,720 --> 00:14:57,400
Speaker 3: just in Berlin.

302
00:14:58,520 --> 00:15:01,720
Speaker 2: Oh that's no. This seemed to glue.

303
00:15:01,440 --> 00:15:06,440
Speaker 3: Them into the jail cell. That's what I would do.

304
00:15:06,720 --> 00:15:08,560
Speaker 3: You want to glee yourself to something? How about a

305
00:15:08,560 --> 00:15:12,520
Speaker 3: prison seledge. Here's the story. This is from the ap

306
00:15:13,440 --> 00:15:17,720
Speaker 3: off the NBC website. The world emitted more carbon dioxide

307
00:15:17,720 --> 00:15:20,360
Speaker 3: in twenty twenty two than any other year on record

308
00:15:20,760 --> 00:15:22,720
Speaker 3: dating back to nineteen hundred.

309
00:15:23,440 --> 00:15:23,960
Speaker 2: Oh wow.

310
00:15:24,000 --> 00:15:27,520
Speaker 1: So with imagine the last thirty years and all the

311
00:15:27,560 --> 00:15:32,920
Speaker 1: incessant prattle about carbon emissions. Record year last year, No

312
00:15:33,080 --> 00:15:38,240
Speaker 1: year has been higher. Nobody's listening. All these people. This

313
00:15:38,320 --> 00:15:42,880
Speaker 1: is a ruse to just raise taxes, penalize people, and

314
00:15:42,960 --> 00:15:46,840
Speaker 1: annoy people, and to create like a whole industry of

315
00:15:46,880 --> 00:15:52,720
Speaker 1: those who create fake green energy products and also get

316
00:15:53,120 --> 00:15:57,520
Speaker 1: federal subsidies, and to charge us more money for energy.

317
00:15:57,800 --> 00:16:01,440
Speaker 1: But the amount of energy being used in the form

318
00:16:01,480 --> 00:16:04,800
Speaker 1: of fossil fuels to create carbon dioxide at his great

319
00:16:04,880 --> 00:16:05,680
Speaker 1: hit a record high.

320
00:16:06,680 --> 00:16:09,160
Speaker 2: Nobody cares. Life's going on.

321
00:16:10,240 --> 00:16:14,680
Speaker 1: And back here in California, a moment of silence for

322
00:16:14,760 --> 00:16:18,600
Speaker 1: the company called pro Terra. They were the first to

323
00:16:18,680 --> 00:16:23,200
Speaker 1: bring zero emission buses to North America. They've gone bankrupt.

324
00:16:24,760 --> 00:16:26,080
Speaker 1: That was probably another racket.

325
00:16:26,280 --> 00:16:29,600
Speaker 3: The company's share price fell from nearly seventeen dollars a

326
00:16:29,760 --> 00:16:33,400
Speaker 3: share when it went public to seventeen cents as of

327
00:16:33,440 --> 00:16:34,479
Speaker 3: Tuesday afternoon.

328
00:16:34,680 --> 00:16:38,240
Speaker 2: That's a tough investment. It's fallen through the floor.

329
00:16:39,280 --> 00:16:42,680
Speaker 3: The company is thinks that it might be able to emerge,

330
00:16:43,440 --> 00:16:45,800
Speaker 3: but and again they were the first. I don't know

331
00:16:45,840 --> 00:16:47,800
Speaker 3: if the electric buses are making it. That tells me

332
00:16:47,840 --> 00:16:50,000
Speaker 3: that this is probably that that's what they did. They

333
00:16:50,040 --> 00:16:53,760
Speaker 3: developed public transit buses powered by batteries and they have

334
00:16:53,840 --> 00:16:58,040
Speaker 3: voluntarily filed for Chapter eleven claiming they're going to keep operating.

335
00:16:58,120 --> 00:17:01,360
Speaker 2: But that's so, what's what's.

336
00:17:01,200 --> 00:17:03,400
Speaker 1: The problem Because I know one company had buses they

337
00:17:03,480 --> 00:17:07,800
Speaker 1: kept catching fire, So we're cities not buying the buses

338
00:17:07,800 --> 00:17:11,199
Speaker 1: because he's too expensive or says they manufactured only one

339
00:17:11,240 --> 00:17:14,800
Speaker 1: thousand electric transit buses since twenty ten, thirteen years, they

340
00:17:14,800 --> 00:17:16,359
Speaker 1: only made a thousand buses.

341
00:17:16,240 --> 00:17:20,359
Speaker 2: Less they went bankrupt. That sounds like no demand, right.

342
00:17:20,400 --> 00:17:23,640
Speaker 3: They accumulated a deficit of one point one billion dollars

343
00:17:23,640 --> 00:17:29,480
Speaker 3: by the end of last year, So it was it

344
00:17:29,520 --> 00:17:33,560
Speaker 3: was almost like a fake company. Well, they were touted

345
00:17:33,600 --> 00:17:39,000
Speaker 3: I think by everyboding edge future, Every scam industry is touted.

346
00:17:39,280 --> 00:17:44,440
Speaker 3: It's like cryptocurrency was touted. Remember Solindra, Yes, yes, Solindur

347
00:17:44,640 --> 00:17:47,719
Speaker 3: was the Obama error version of this. See when whenever,

348
00:17:47,800 --> 00:17:50,800
Speaker 3: whenever a left wing guy gets in power, they start

349
00:17:50,800 --> 00:17:54,000
Speaker 3: prattling about green energy and they start handing out government

350
00:17:54,040 --> 00:17:56,919
Speaker 3: subsidies and create Celindro, which turned out to be a

351
00:17:56,920 --> 00:17:59,160
Speaker 3: fake company and now pro Terror is a fake company,

352
00:18:00,119 --> 00:18:03,320
Speaker 3: all right, when we return, the El Segundo Time sent

353
00:18:03,359 --> 00:18:06,840
Speaker 3: the reporter to talk to the mayor of Anchorage, Alaska.

354
00:18:06,880 --> 00:18:09,600
Speaker 3: He made news last week for saying he may have

355
00:18:09,640 --> 00:18:12,200
Speaker 3: to send his vagrants to la for the winter. Johnny

Speaker 1: Well, sometimes it doesn't take long for me to get

362
00:18:28,920 --> 00:18:32,720
Speaker 1: really aggravated with an El Segundo Time special. And it

363
00:18:32,760 --> 00:18:35,480
Speaker 1: was in the first several paragraphs. It's a story by

364
00:18:35,600 --> 00:18:40,480
Speaker 1: a reporter named Haley Branson. Hyphen Potts a staff writer.

365
00:18:41,400 --> 00:18:44,040
Speaker 1: It's like how you always point out the hyphen. I

366
00:18:44,119 --> 00:18:46,560
Speaker 1: like the hyphen because that says something about the person.

367
00:18:47,080 --> 00:18:49,000
Speaker 1: Anybody who walks around with a hyphen.

368
00:18:50,080 --> 00:18:53,240
Speaker 2: Well, she may have taken I don't know a partner's name.

369
00:18:53,400 --> 00:18:54,960
Speaker 1: Is her last name too? And you can keep your

370
00:18:54,960 --> 00:18:57,560
Speaker 1: own name. They figure out if you're a brand center

371
00:18:57,640 --> 00:18:58,760
Speaker 1: of pots.

372
00:19:00,480 --> 00:19:05,040
Speaker 3: They dispatched her to Anchorage, Alaska. Why well, it was

373
00:19:05,119 --> 00:19:07,000
Speaker 3: news last week when the mayor there, a man by

374
00:19:07,040 --> 00:19:09,480
Speaker 3: the name of Dave Bronson, said, we may have to

375
00:19:09,520 --> 00:19:12,639
Speaker 3: send our vagrants to Los Angeles this winter. It's going

376
00:19:12,720 --> 00:19:14,520
Speaker 3: to be cold as he gets up here, and we

377
00:19:14,600 --> 00:19:18,840
Speaker 3: don't have the shelter space. Somebody at the time said, oh,

378
00:19:18,880 --> 00:19:20,360
Speaker 3: you need to go and find.

379
00:19:20,160 --> 00:19:21,920
Speaker 2: Out more about this. Stop people.

380
00:19:22,000 --> 00:19:25,240
Speaker 1: There's a buzz that's been created about Anchorage homeless coming

381
00:19:25,240 --> 00:19:28,560
Speaker 1: to Los Angeles and why us. So here's how the

382
00:19:28,600 --> 00:19:32,760
Speaker 1: story started the way she wrote it. A man clutching

383
00:19:32,840 --> 00:19:36,040
Speaker 1: a roll of toilet paper barreled toward Mayor Dave Bronson.

384
00:19:36,560 --> 00:19:39,040
Speaker 1: He pointed to the portable toilets the city had just

385
00:19:39,080 --> 00:19:42,639
Speaker 1: installed at the sprawling homeless encampment the mayor was visiting.

386
00:19:43,320 --> 00:19:46,280
Speaker 1: There were just four toilets for hundreds of people. They

387
00:19:46,320 --> 00:19:49,439
Speaker 1: often overflow with feces, said the forty six year old man,

388
00:19:49,600 --> 00:19:51,000
Speaker 1: who gave his name as Joel.

389
00:19:51,680 --> 00:19:53,639
Speaker 2: Bronson. Promised to bring more toilets.

390
00:19:54,240 --> 00:19:56,760
Speaker 3: Then he pivoted to his latest idea, offering homeless people

391
00:19:56,760 --> 00:19:59,000
Speaker 3: in Anchorage a one way ticket to warmer cities like la.

392
00:20:00,440 --> 00:20:00,600
Speaker 2: As.

393
00:20:00,640 --> 00:20:03,159
Speaker 3: Bronson said, Hey, let me ask you something. If I

394
00:20:03,240 --> 00:20:06,159
Speaker 3: offered you an airline ticket, well, Joel screamed.

395
00:20:05,760 --> 00:20:08,720
Speaker 2: At him, I wouldn't take it. Alaska is my home.

396
00:20:08,960 --> 00:20:11,359
Speaker 2: How dare you? How dare you? What I want to

397
00:20:11,400 --> 00:20:12,960
Speaker 2: see you people do is take your head out of

398
00:20:13,000 --> 00:20:14,920
Speaker 2: your bleep and figure this bleep out.

399
00:20:15,200 --> 00:20:17,280
Speaker 3: And I read that and I got so freaking annoying.

400
00:20:17,800 --> 00:20:20,480
Speaker 3: He has to figure out your life for you. Yeah,

401
00:20:20,680 --> 00:20:22,480
Speaker 3: you can't figure out where to get a good toilet.

402
00:20:22,520 --> 00:20:25,560
Speaker 3: It's not overflowing with feces because you're a hopeless idiot.

403
00:20:27,000 --> 00:20:28,840
Speaker 2: Oh, I was so mad when I read that. Oh,

404
00:20:28,920 --> 00:20:29,520
Speaker 2: I'm with you.

405
00:20:30,280 --> 00:20:32,720
Speaker 1: That Joel should be lifted right up and packed right

406
00:20:32,760 --> 00:20:36,560
Speaker 1: off somewhere holding a roll of toilet paper, pointing forty.

407
00:20:36,720 --> 00:20:37,960
Speaker 2: He's a big shaved headed guy.

408
00:20:38,040 --> 00:20:41,800
Speaker 1: You see his picture, forty six years old, forty six

409
00:20:41,880 --> 00:20:46,080
Speaker 1: years old, and he doesn't have a toilet to crap it.

410
00:20:46,640 --> 00:20:48,720
Speaker 1: And the mayor has to get his act together, his

411
00:20:48,840 --> 00:20:51,840
Speaker 1: bleep together, Get about your bleep.

412
00:20:52,320 --> 00:20:54,240
Speaker 2: Your bleep's all over the plane.

413
00:20:54,040 --> 00:20:56,639
Speaker 1: Your bleep is flooding out of the toilets, and the

414
00:20:56,680 --> 00:20:59,720
Speaker 1: whole line here rest room.

415
00:21:00,119 --> 00:21:01,680
Speaker 2: What a start to the story.

416
00:21:01,720 --> 00:21:05,400
Speaker 1: And I don't know if the reporter maybe in her

417
00:21:05,440 --> 00:21:08,639
Speaker 1: world this is empathy for the vagrant because he's frustrated

418
00:21:08,680 --> 00:21:11,280
Speaker 1: he can't get enough toilets for the people there. Me

419
00:21:11,440 --> 00:21:14,119
Speaker 1: I read it completely the opposite, because you've had forty

420
00:21:14,200 --> 00:21:17,560
Speaker 1: six gets your own toilet. Yeah, you had forty six

421
00:21:17,680 --> 00:21:20,320
Speaker 1: years to be able to rent the room with a toilet.

422
00:21:21,200 --> 00:21:23,120
Speaker 2: What did you do for forty six years?

423
00:21:23,560 --> 00:21:27,560
Speaker 1: Oh, you were snorting meth, you're injecting heroin, you're drinking.

424
00:21:27,800 --> 00:21:30,480
Speaker 2: That's what you do. Guess what. Here's the penalty, no

425
00:21:30,640 --> 00:21:31,920
Speaker 2: toilet for you.

426
00:21:31,280 --> 00:21:33,960
Speaker 1: You don't go to work, you don't get a toilet,

427
00:21:34,640 --> 00:21:37,360
Speaker 1: and you don't come to anybody AND's demand a toilet,

428
00:21:37,680 --> 00:21:41,960
Speaker 1: waving toilet paper at the mayor. The mayor went to

429
00:21:42,040 --> 00:21:46,919
Speaker 1: work every day. He has his own toilet. They were

430
00:21:47,040 --> 00:21:50,399
Speaker 1: using something called Sullivan Arena. It's a sports place that

431
00:21:51,200 --> 00:21:53,720
Speaker 1: they put five hundred people there during cold months, particularly

432
00:21:53,760 --> 00:21:56,960
Speaker 1: during the pandemic. But the mayor said, no, it's time

433
00:21:57,119 --> 00:21:59,840
Speaker 1: to let it return to hosting hockey games and rock concerts.

434
00:22:00,000 --> 00:22:01,600
Speaker 1: That's right, that's a public space.

435
00:22:02,040 --> 00:22:04,119
Speaker 3: So after that happened, they started hanging out in the

436
00:22:04,119 --> 00:22:07,479
Speaker 3: parks and the green belts exploded in size. Now hundreds

437
00:22:07,480 --> 00:22:10,160
Speaker 3: of people live outdoors. Bankats. By the way, it only

438
00:22:10,160 --> 00:22:12,680
Speaker 3: has two hundred eighty eight thousand city a thousand people.

439
00:22:12,720 --> 00:22:14,600
Speaker 3: That's a small compared to soak out.

440
00:22:14,880 --> 00:22:17,159
Speaker 2: So go get it, go, get go, get a job.

441
00:22:17,880 --> 00:22:20,000
Speaker 2: I did see. It's become their life.

442
00:22:20,600 --> 00:22:25,400
Speaker 1: They never spend a day entertaining, getting a job, working,

443
00:22:25,720 --> 00:22:29,320
Speaker 1: earning money, and then earning some shelter. They don't think

444
00:22:29,320 --> 00:22:32,160
Speaker 1: about it anymore. Instead, there in the moments like hey this.

445
00:22:32,119 --> 00:22:34,000
Speaker 2: Is I'm owed this now.

446
00:22:34,080 --> 00:22:35,960
Speaker 1: Hey you owe me some toilet paper, You owe me

447
00:22:36,000 --> 00:22:39,880
Speaker 1: a new toilet, Hey clean my toilet. You believe this guy,

448
00:22:40,040 --> 00:22:43,240
Speaker 1: he's marching around barking at the mayor like the mayor

449
00:22:43,320 --> 00:22:46,720
Speaker 1: is his personal valet. Hey I need a clean toilet here.

450
00:22:49,920 --> 00:22:50,720
Speaker 2: Man, I hate.

451
00:22:50,800 --> 00:22:54,240
Speaker 1: I can't stand this attitude and these people, I really can't.

452
00:22:54,600 --> 00:22:57,800
Speaker 1: It doesn't take long before the Times reveals it's true

453
00:22:57,840 --> 00:23:00,040
Speaker 1: agenda and the story of this mayor is quote a

454
00:23:00,119 --> 00:23:04,119
Speaker 1: conservative Republican who actually read the book John San Francisco,

455
00:23:04,560 --> 00:23:09,159
Speaker 1: Why Progressives Ruined Cities by Michael Sheldenberger. Right, yeah, I

456
00:23:09,200 --> 00:23:11,359
Speaker 1: don't want the folks in LA to get mad at me, though,

457
00:23:11,480 --> 00:23:13,600
Speaker 1: I don't want the mayor there mad at me. But

458
00:23:13,800 --> 00:23:16,040
Speaker 1: he's suggesting this because it seems to be the only

459
00:23:16,080 --> 00:23:18,879
Speaker 1: effective idea he has to get some of the homeless

460
00:23:18,880 --> 00:23:20,640
Speaker 1: out of Anchorage who are living on the streets because

461
00:23:20,640 --> 00:23:21,399
Speaker 1: they won't survive.

462
00:23:21,920 --> 00:23:23,080
Speaker 2: They don't have a budget for this.

463
00:23:23,640 --> 00:23:25,600
Speaker 1: Even New York City, the mayor there doesn't have a

464
00:23:25,600 --> 00:23:27,600
Speaker 1: budget for all the illegal aliens coming in.

465
00:23:28,040 --> 00:23:30,040
Speaker 2: Cities don't have the money for this.

466
00:23:30,920 --> 00:23:35,840
Speaker 1: Now, why is every city now expected to take in

467
00:23:36,119 --> 00:23:40,200
Speaker 1: every drug addicted vagrant, every mental patient, every illegal alien

468
00:23:40,520 --> 00:23:43,280
Speaker 1: at the expense of all the citizens who worked.

469
00:23:43,119 --> 00:23:43,639
Speaker 2: For a living.

470
00:23:43,920 --> 00:23:46,199
Speaker 1: How did all of us get to be not in

471
00:23:46,280 --> 00:23:48,879
Speaker 1: first place, not in second place, not in third place,

472
00:23:48,920 --> 00:23:53,800
Speaker 1: even right, the drug addicts are first, the vagrants, the

473
00:23:53,840 --> 00:23:58,960
Speaker 1: mental patients, the illegal aliens, you name it. Anybody who

474
00:23:59,000 --> 00:24:01,720
Speaker 1: breaks the law doesn't want to work. You could throw

475
00:24:01,720 --> 00:24:03,760
Speaker 1: in all the prisoners that they've dumped out of the

476
00:24:03,800 --> 00:24:07,280
Speaker 1: jails and prisons. Right, they're ahead of us too, And

477
00:24:07,320 --> 00:24:09,520
Speaker 1: they're all they're all turning around looking and I says,

478
00:24:09,560 --> 00:24:11,760
Speaker 1: give me, give me, give me, I want, I want,

479
00:24:11,880 --> 00:24:15,879
Speaker 1: I want. Nobody wants to go to work, Nobody in

480
00:24:15,920 --> 00:24:18,000
Speaker 1: the in this in these crowds want to work.

481
00:24:18,800 --> 00:24:20,240
Speaker 2: They never explained much either.

482
00:24:20,359 --> 00:24:23,040
Speaker 3: Eventually you get to the part of the story where

483
00:24:23,280 --> 00:24:25,360
Speaker 3: most of the homeless she talk I'm sorry, the vagrants

484
00:24:25,359 --> 00:24:27,920
Speaker 3: she talked to don't want to leave because Alaska is

485
00:24:27,920 --> 00:24:29,960
Speaker 3: their home. How dare anybody bring.

486
00:24:29,880 --> 00:24:30,440
Speaker 2: Up this idea?

487
00:24:30,480 --> 00:24:32,879
Speaker 1: And it looks like the state legislature isn't keen to

488
00:24:32,960 --> 00:24:36,520
Speaker 1: the idea anyway. So she talks to Nancy cabin Boy,

489
00:24:37,320 --> 00:24:40,600
Speaker 1: age forty. She fell off a bicycle. She's nursing a

490
00:24:40,600 --> 00:24:45,320
Speaker 1: bloody knee. She apparently is like Native. She's Siberian, you

491
00:24:45,400 --> 00:24:51,920
Speaker 1: pick and Inupiat, originally from Nome. But they truncate everything

492
00:24:52,240 --> 00:24:54,720
Speaker 1: she said. She lost her children. She didn't say when

493
00:24:54,760 --> 00:24:56,720
Speaker 1: or why, and life just got hard and that's it.

494
00:24:56,840 --> 00:24:58,800
Speaker 1: That's why she lost her children in the park.

495
00:25:00,240 --> 00:25:03,560
Speaker 3: She wouldn't say why or when to the reporter, Well,

496
00:25:03,960 --> 00:25:06,000
Speaker 3: her life just got hard. So here she is, Please

497
00:25:06,040 --> 00:25:06,639
Speaker 3: take care of me.

498
00:25:07,520 --> 00:25:13,160
Speaker 1: It's almost one hundred percent mental illness, drugging out. I said,

499
00:25:13,160 --> 00:25:16,280
Speaker 1: you can tell to these people, but I lost my children.

500
00:25:17,040 --> 00:25:18,240
Speaker 2: What does that mean? Somebody?

501
00:25:18,400 --> 00:25:20,920
Speaker 1: Oh, the state took them away because they were neglected

502
00:25:20,960 --> 00:25:24,400
Speaker 1: and abused, because you were whacked out of your mind

503
00:25:24,440 --> 00:25:28,680
Speaker 1: on some drug. That's the story. They won't even write

504
00:25:28,680 --> 00:25:32,240
Speaker 1: the story anymore. I've noticed how they've whitewashed in the

505
00:25:32,280 --> 00:25:34,200
Speaker 1: El Segundo propaganda prod.

506
00:25:34,320 --> 00:25:34,960
Speaker 2: The times.

507
00:25:35,200 --> 00:25:39,040
Speaker 1: They whitewash everything. Now They don't ask questions. They take

508
00:25:39,119 --> 00:25:42,960
Speaker 1: answer absurd answers and just print them verbatim. It's like, no, no, no,

509
00:25:43,000 --> 00:25:45,640
Speaker 1: you tell you know what happened. You didn't lose your children.

510
00:25:46,680 --> 00:25:49,000
Speaker 1: You went to a shopping mall and they wandered off.

511
00:25:49,080 --> 00:25:51,560
Speaker 1: They're in the toy store. What would you lose them?

512
00:25:51,960 --> 00:25:54,800
Speaker 1: Somebody took them away because you were a danger to them.

513
00:25:55,400 --> 00:25:55,680
Speaker 2: Wow.

514
00:25:55,800 --> 00:26:00,440
Speaker 3: She actually found a vagrant by the name of Lae Lay,

515
00:26:01,400 --> 00:26:05,040
Speaker 3: a thirty year old originally from Hawaii. She ended up

516
00:26:05,040 --> 00:26:11,240
Speaker 3: in Alaska homeless, sitting there smoking a cigarette and showing

517
00:26:11,280 --> 00:26:14,560
Speaker 3: off a hatchet that she has because she uses it

518
00:26:14,600 --> 00:26:16,320
Speaker 3: to cut weeds and sometimes for protection.

519
00:26:16,440 --> 00:26:17,720
Speaker 2: Of course, there's the old story that.

520
00:26:17,640 --> 00:26:20,960
Speaker 3: You're not safe on the streets, and you're not, so

521
00:26:21,119 --> 00:26:24,280
Speaker 3: make the right decisions and change your life. Stop yelling

522
00:26:24,280 --> 00:26:27,479
Speaker 3: at the mayor because there's not enough toilets. She had

523
00:26:27,480 --> 00:26:29,560
Speaker 3: an idea for the mayor. There's days and we don't

524
00:26:29,600 --> 00:26:32,800
Speaker 3: eat nothing. The mayor should send us some pizza. The

525
00:26:32,840 --> 00:26:36,800
Speaker 3: mayor should send us some pizza. The mayor should build

526
00:26:36,880 --> 00:26:39,199
Speaker 3: us another toilet.

527
00:26:40,160 --> 00:26:42,280
Speaker 2: She said, Can you make our story seem happy? F

528
00:26:42,359 --> 00:26:42,760
Speaker 2: the mayor?

529
00:26:42,880 --> 00:26:45,920
Speaker 1: She said, right, Oh, it's the mayor's fault. You don't work,

530
00:26:46,160 --> 00:26:49,240
Speaker 1: you're whacked out on drug drugs. It's the mayor's fault

531
00:26:49,440 --> 00:26:52,160
Speaker 1: because he will give you free food, and he will

532
00:26:52,160 --> 00:26:54,159
Speaker 1: give you free shelter, and he won't give you a

533
00:26:54,160 --> 00:26:57,880
Speaker 1: free toilet, and even if he did, you still wouldn't work,

534
00:26:58,160 --> 00:26:59,359
Speaker 1: you would want more.

535
00:27:00,800 --> 00:27:02,119
Speaker 2: I just can't.

536
00:27:02,200 --> 00:27:06,760
Speaker 1: I cannot stand this attitude. I really can't. And they

537
00:27:07,080 --> 00:27:09,119
Speaker 1: just all ought to be. They ought to be forcibly

538
00:27:09,480 --> 00:27:11,919
Speaker 1: kicked out of anchorage and sent into the woods.

539
00:27:12,760 --> 00:27:14,760

Speaker 1: is the fake meat fad finally over?

553
00:27:52,680 --> 00:27:55,800
Speaker 1: But they are completely uh oh, they're almost done. I

554
00:27:55,840 --> 00:27:57,159
Speaker 1: think I got there. There's two of them, but I

555
00:27:57,160 --> 00:27:59,520
Speaker 1: think beyond me this was impossible.

556
00:27:59,040 --> 00:28:01,560
Speaker 2: I think beyond meats the one.

557
00:28:01,359 --> 00:28:04,240
Speaker 1: That oh good, oh it is. Let me just see

560
00:28:08,440 --> 00:28:09,479
Speaker 2: Oh okay, I'll look it up here.

561
00:28:09,520 --> 00:28:12,000
Speaker 1: Because I was gonna, I was gonna put in a pile.

562
00:28:12,520 --> 00:28:19,320
Speaker 1: And yeah, beyond Meat sales plummet thirty percent as consumers

563
00:28:20,119 --> 00:28:24,560
Speaker 1: question ingredients. Yeah, that's something I had pointed out before.

564
00:28:24,960 --> 00:28:27,919
Speaker 1: I mean, it's a processed food, and the stuff that

565
00:28:27,960 --> 00:28:32,440
Speaker 1: they're putting in there is well here it is beyond meat.

566
00:28:32,520 --> 00:28:33,760
Speaker 2: Oh wow, do you want the whole list?

567
00:28:34,480 --> 00:28:38,000
Speaker 1: Yeah? Yeah, tell me if this sounds healthier than beef.

568
00:28:38,680 --> 00:28:41,160
Speaker 2: Remember when you used to read the ingredients in the

569
00:28:41,200 --> 00:28:44,959
Speaker 2: fruitcake fruitcake? Yes, she's laughing. All right.

570
00:28:45,000 --> 00:28:49,680
Speaker 1: We start with water, pea protein P pea not p G.

571
00:28:49,960 --> 00:28:56,040
Speaker 1: It could be pee, expeller press, canola oil, refine, coconut oil,

572
00:28:56,200 --> 00:28:59,880
Speaker 1: rice protein, natural flavors, dried these cocoa butter, and now

573
00:29:00,080 --> 00:29:07,400
Speaker 1: comes something called methyl cellulose. Then there's potatoes, starts, salt, potassium, chloride,

574
00:29:07,400 --> 00:29:12,040
Speaker 1: beat juice, color, beat juice to make color, juice to

575
00:29:12,080 --> 00:29:15,760
Speaker 1: make it look what look red like meat? Yeah, to

576
00:29:15,760 --> 00:29:16,480
Speaker 1: make it look bloody.

577
00:29:17,880 --> 00:29:23,120
Speaker 2: So the red is beet juice, don't and it may.

578
00:29:22,960 --> 00:29:25,040
Speaker 3: Not actually be be juice. It's just as bet juice color.

579
00:29:25,120 --> 00:29:27,760
Speaker 3: So I guess it's a color that simulates. Well, maybe

580
00:29:27,760 --> 00:29:29,200
Speaker 3: it's derived from the be juice.

581
00:29:29,240 --> 00:29:38,200
Speaker 1: It's apple extract, pomegranate concentrates, sunflower lethin vinegar, lemon juice concentrate.

582
00:29:37,680 --> 00:29:41,360
Speaker 3: Vinegarts, and some vitamins. Yeah, vitamins and mint.

00:29:47,520 --> 00:29:49,400
Speaker 2: I can't believe I bit into one once.

585
00:29:49,960 --> 00:29:52,440
Speaker 3: And probably the problem is people see all those ingredients

586
00:29:52,480 --> 00:29:54,240
Speaker 3: and go, what the hell. Not that all of them

587
00:29:54,240 --> 00:29:56,520
Speaker 3: are bad, but most of them are kind of It's

588
00:29:56,560 --> 00:29:58,600
Speaker 3: like people are just now thinking, if I'm gonna eat

589
00:29:59,440 --> 00:30:02,479
Speaker 3: vegan scene, I'll just buy chickpeas and mash them up.

590
00:30:02,480 --> 00:30:06,200
Speaker 1: And yeah, I'd rather have the beef with the with

591
00:30:06,240 --> 00:30:09,400
Speaker 1: all the hormones in it and antibiotics.
