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

2
00:00:01,000 --> 00:00:02,080
Speaker 2: I am six forty.

3
00:00:02,120 --> 00:00:05,560
Speaker 3: You're listening to the John Cobelt podcast on the iHeartRadio app.

4
00:00:06,440 --> 00:00:08,880
Speaker 3: We are on every day from one until four o'clock

5
00:00:09,240 --> 00:00:12,160
Speaker 3: and every day after four o'clock John Cobelt's show on

6
00:00:12,240 --> 00:00:17,960
Speaker 3: demand that's posted right after program's over. And so whatever

7
00:00:17,960 --> 00:00:21,200
Speaker 3: you missed, we covered in the first hour with Alex

8
00:00:21,239 --> 00:00:26,200
Speaker 3: Stone from ABC News the shooting spree that that former

9
00:00:26,280 --> 00:00:29,280
Speaker 3: high school football star from the San Fernando Valley went on.

10
00:00:30,120 --> 00:00:34,239
Speaker 3: And now we're going to talk to Michael Monks because

11
00:00:35,560 --> 00:00:42,320
Speaker 3: we've got two LA County supervisors and what they care

12
00:00:42,360 --> 00:00:46,840
Speaker 3: about most today, Janis han and Hildesalise, is that ICE

13
00:00:46,880 --> 00:00:51,640
Speaker 3: agents are wearing masks when they perform those immigration rates.

14
00:00:52,320 --> 00:00:57,279
Speaker 3: That is the most impressing issue that they have on

15
00:00:57,320 --> 00:00:57,959
Speaker 3: their plates.

16
00:00:58,360 --> 00:01:03,400
Speaker 4: Michael, good afternoon to you, John, And you're right, and

17
00:01:03,440 --> 00:01:06,959
Speaker 4: it's not just too anymore to author this motion Supervisors

18
00:01:07,000 --> 00:01:10,600
Speaker 4: Janis Hahn and Hilda Solase, but now four have voted

19
00:01:10,600 --> 00:01:14,320
Speaker 4: to have this motion pushed through, and that means county

20
00:01:14,360 --> 00:01:17,839
Speaker 4: attorneys have been directed to report back within sixty days

21
00:01:18,160 --> 00:01:21,280
Speaker 4: with a proposed ordinance that could be adopted. So keep

22
00:01:21,280 --> 00:01:23,520
Speaker 4: in mind this is not going effect right away. There

23
00:01:23,520 --> 00:01:25,560
Speaker 4: has to be some legal language and then an actual

24
00:01:25,640 --> 00:01:28,280
Speaker 4: ordinance drafted that would be voted on within.

25
00:01:28,080 --> 00:01:29,119
Speaker 2: The next couple of months.

26
00:01:29,160 --> 00:01:32,959
Speaker 4: County officials want to see immigration agents at the federal

27
00:01:33,040 --> 00:01:36,959
Speaker 4: level removing their masks and more publicly identifying themselves when

28
00:01:36,959 --> 00:01:41,840
Speaker 4: they show up to execute enforcement directives.

29
00:01:41,120 --> 00:01:45,800
Speaker 3: They did they seem to care about the agents being

30
00:01:45,840 --> 00:01:49,440
Speaker 3: identified and docked and then they and their families are

31
00:01:49,520 --> 00:01:50,640
Speaker 3: terrorized at their homes.

32
00:01:50,880 --> 00:01:51,680
Speaker 2: Did that come up?

33
00:01:51,920 --> 00:01:54,600
Speaker 4: That's the argument that you certainly hear from the White

34
00:01:54,600 --> 00:01:59,000
Speaker 4: House and Cabinet officials. Christy nom the Homeland Security Secretary,

35
00:01:59,080 --> 00:02:03,000
Speaker 4: said earlier this month, we will prosecute those who docks

36
00:02:03,120 --> 00:02:05,840
Speaker 4: ice agents to the fullest extent of the law. These

37
00:02:05,880 --> 00:02:09,320
Speaker 4: criminals are taking the side of vicious cartels and human traffickers.

38
00:02:09,360 --> 00:02:10,720
Speaker 2: We won't allow it in America.

39
00:02:11,280 --> 00:02:15,320
Speaker 4: And docs means that basically, you find a person's identity

40
00:02:15,320 --> 00:02:19,440
Speaker 4: and then you blasted online including personal details, address, phone number,

41
00:02:19,480 --> 00:02:23,240
Speaker 4: that sort of thing. It create can create a dangerous situation.

42
00:02:23,040 --> 00:02:27,320
Speaker 3: So the craziest can come over the house and kill them, kill.

43
00:02:27,200 --> 00:02:28,680
Speaker 2: The life, the kids, everybody.

44
00:02:28,919 --> 00:02:32,000
Speaker 4: That's one possible terrible outcome that could come from this.

45
00:02:32,080 --> 00:02:36,720
Speaker 4: What Supervisor Janis Hahn said today was a couple of things. One,

46
00:02:36,919 --> 00:02:39,960
Speaker 4: local law enforcement show their faces. They show up in

47
00:02:40,120 --> 00:02:42,320
Speaker 4: marked cars when they are interacting with the public, They

48
00:02:42,320 --> 00:02:46,240
Speaker 4: have badges, and they have their names clearly visible for

49
00:02:46,280 --> 00:02:49,440
Speaker 4: folks to see, whereas the immigration agents do not.

50
00:02:49,520 --> 00:02:54,799
Speaker 2: Here's part of what she had to say. And if

51
00:02:54,800 --> 00:02:56,079
Speaker 2: we don't have that that sounds like.

52
00:02:56,040 --> 00:02:59,639
Speaker 5: Her being forcibly detained by a federal officer in the

53
00:02:59,639 --> 00:03:03,600
Speaker 5: middle of the day is scaring enough done having it

54
00:03:03,639 --> 00:03:07,400
Speaker 5: done by someone wearing a face mask or balaklava whose

55
00:03:07,480 --> 00:03:11,480
Speaker 5: name and badge are completely covered up is even more disturbing.

56
00:03:11,960 --> 00:03:16,560
Speaker 5: And many of them arrive to these raids in unmarked vans.

57
00:03:17,040 --> 00:03:20,120
Speaker 5: Some of times their license plates have been blurred.

58
00:03:21,480 --> 00:03:24,720
Speaker 4: So she's saying that there are you know, there's just

59
00:03:24,919 --> 00:03:27,799
Speaker 4: so much fear in the community here because in.

60
00:03:27,720 --> 00:03:30,560
Speaker 2: The community of illegal aliens. Well that's so accurate.

61
00:03:30,680 --> 00:03:32,640
Speaker 4: Yeah, I legal immigrants who are here in the community

62
00:03:32,680 --> 00:03:34,960
Speaker 4: and those who support them are are one afraid that

63
00:03:35,000 --> 00:03:38,120
Speaker 4: the enforcement actions are taking place at all, but two

64
00:03:38,160 --> 00:03:41,240
Speaker 4: that they are taking place more often than not at

65
00:03:41,240 --> 00:03:43,800
Speaker 4: the hands of law enforcement officials from the federal level

66
00:03:44,160 --> 00:03:47,240
Speaker 4: who do have their faces ramped do have sunglasses on

67
00:03:47,480 --> 00:03:50,560
Speaker 4: or do not have any type of official markings to.

68
00:03:50,600 --> 00:03:56,000
Speaker 3: Know why, I don't understand why does does Han and

69
00:03:56,080 --> 00:03:58,840
Speaker 3: Solis and the other two ninnis, why do they need

70
00:03:58,880 --> 00:04:00,920
Speaker 3: to see the ice age faces.

71
00:04:01,280 --> 00:04:04,480
Speaker 4: One of the reasons that they gave today was to

72
00:04:04,560 --> 00:04:07,520
Speaker 4: create at least a little bit of comfort in that

73
00:04:07,560 --> 00:04:09,960
Speaker 4: folks who are being picked up know that they're being

74
00:04:10,040 --> 00:04:12,720
Speaker 4: picked up by legitimate law enforcement people. And there have

75
00:04:12,800 --> 00:04:16,640
Speaker 4: been a couple of cases here locally where we have

76
00:04:16,680 --> 00:04:20,440
Speaker 4: seen arrest of folks impersonating law enforcement, federal law enforcement,

77
00:04:20,520 --> 00:04:22,840
Speaker 4: and so that is a concern. The other one is,

78
00:04:23,040 --> 00:04:25,880
Speaker 4: once someone is picked up and let's say the family

79
00:04:25,920 --> 00:04:28,359
Speaker 4: starts looking for them, where do they turn? How do

80
00:04:28,440 --> 00:04:31,839
Speaker 4: they know who got them? That's the argument that was

81
00:04:31,880 --> 00:04:34,400
Speaker 4: made today. And really, John, you and I I think

82
00:04:34,680 --> 00:04:37,200
Speaker 4: we were talking yesterday about the court hearing. You know,

83
00:04:37,440 --> 00:04:41,440
Speaker 4: the local officials, the local cities, the county government were

84
00:04:41,520 --> 00:04:45,120
Speaker 4: successful at the first round of court in stopping the

85
00:04:45,120 --> 00:04:50,400
Speaker 4: Trump administration's enforcement actions basically in their entirety for right now.

86
00:04:50,400 --> 00:04:52,440
Speaker 4: So there's two things at the top of the list

87
00:04:52,480 --> 00:04:55,800
Speaker 4: that local officials who want to protect the illegal immigrants

88
00:04:55,839 --> 00:04:59,480
Speaker 4: in the community here have wanted one stop the raids altogether,

89
00:05:00,040 --> 00:05:02,600
Speaker 4: and then two certainly to identify the people who are

90
00:05:02,640 --> 00:05:06,479
Speaker 4: conducting them. So they've won so far on the first one.

91
00:05:07,040 --> 00:05:10,280
Speaker 4: This second one is obviously headed for clashing.

92
00:05:10,839 --> 00:05:14,920
Speaker 3: Is what makes Hans Solase believe that they can tell

93
00:05:14,960 --> 00:05:18,800
Speaker 3: the federal government how to address federal law enforcement agents.

94
00:05:18,839 --> 00:05:23,720
Speaker 3: These are two lowly county supervisors. They get to override

95
00:05:23,920 --> 00:05:26,839
Speaker 3: federal dress code decisions.

96
00:05:27,279 --> 00:05:30,720
Speaker 4: And they are both local officials who have experience at

97
00:05:30,760 --> 00:05:34,600
Speaker 4: the federal level. Both served in Congress. Supervisor Holy served

98
00:05:34,800 --> 00:05:37,440
Speaker 4: in a cabinet, so I mean, you know, they know

99
00:05:37,560 --> 00:05:38,960
Speaker 4: the different levels of government.

100
00:05:39,000 --> 00:05:40,320
Speaker 2: What I noticed today.

101
00:05:40,839 --> 00:05:44,159
Speaker 3: The federal laws override local laws, certainly when it comes

102
00:05:44,200 --> 00:05:46,640
Speaker 3: to what the uniform is going to be for the agents.

103
00:05:47,000 --> 00:05:50,039
Speaker 4: And that was acknowledged. And it seems that they know

104
00:05:50,680 --> 00:05:55,360
Speaker 4: that they don't necessarily have this authority. And Janis Han

105
00:05:55,480 --> 00:05:58,600
Speaker 4: specifically said, you know, basically, if the White House comes

106
00:05:58,640 --> 00:05:59,960
Speaker 4: after us, we'll see you in court.

107
00:06:01,440 --> 00:06:04,240
Speaker 3: Well, yeah, they all love to go to court because

108
00:06:04,720 --> 00:06:06,840
Speaker 3: they start beating their chests. It's like, yes side Trump

109
00:06:06,920 --> 00:06:09,800
Speaker 3: Trump to court. They don't have any right to tell

110
00:06:09,839 --> 00:06:12,839
Speaker 3: the federal government how to dress their law enforcement agents

111
00:06:13,720 --> 00:06:14,600
Speaker 3: on no planet.

112
00:06:14,960 --> 00:06:15,920
Speaker 2: Do they have that right?

113
00:06:16,400 --> 00:06:18,600
Speaker 4: And what we heard from one of the county attorneys

114
00:06:18,640 --> 00:06:21,240
Speaker 4: who was present at the meeting, she said, I don't

115
00:06:21,279 --> 00:06:24,000
Speaker 4: want to give you know, the legal advice in public.

116
00:06:24,000 --> 00:06:27,520
Speaker 4: This is something that's usually done behind closed doors for

117
00:06:28,160 --> 00:06:33,440
Speaker 4: confidentiality reasons. I suppose she she seemed hesitant to you know,

118
00:06:33,640 --> 00:06:37,560
Speaker 4: disagree with what the intention was of the supervisors, but

119
00:06:37,680 --> 00:06:38,400
Speaker 4: this is something that.

120
00:06:38,360 --> 00:06:41,520
Speaker 2: Will have to be worked out standing attorneys.

121
00:06:41,640 --> 00:06:44,839
Speaker 3: They know the attorneys have already told them. You do this,

122
00:06:44,920 --> 00:06:47,479
Speaker 3: you're gonna lose in court. The federal government can address

123
00:06:47,560 --> 00:06:49,320
Speaker 3: them in pink bikinis if they want.

124
00:06:49,560 --> 00:06:52,080
Speaker 4: Yeah, the supremacy clause of the Constitution would more than

125
00:06:52,160 --> 00:06:54,680
Speaker 4: likely give the federal government the upper hand here. So

126
00:06:54,720 --> 00:06:56,320
Speaker 4: we'll have to see within a couple of months what

127
00:06:56,400 --> 00:06:58,720
Speaker 4: this ordinance looks like to see if they have found

128
00:06:58,720 --> 00:07:01,719
Speaker 4: a key because in that in that immigration enforcement case

129
00:07:02,000 --> 00:07:04,560
Speaker 4: that the local cities and the ACLU have won so

130
00:07:04,720 --> 00:07:07,360
Speaker 4: far against the Trump administration, it's at the appeals court

131
00:07:07,839 --> 00:07:11,120
Speaker 4: what they found a way to get that stop, very

132
00:07:11,120 --> 00:07:15,720
Speaker 4: specifically arguing that immigration agents have been targeting people based

133
00:07:15,760 --> 00:07:17,880
Speaker 4: on their race and their location. And you have seen

134
00:07:17,920 --> 00:07:22,360
Speaker 4: here that those enforcement actions have slowed dramatically. Right, if

135
00:07:22,400 --> 00:07:25,440
Speaker 4: they can find something like that, sure, we'll have to see.

136
00:07:25,720 --> 00:07:30,960
Speaker 3: The Constitution regulates the behavior of law enforcement. But I

137
00:07:31,360 --> 00:07:36,440
Speaker 3: don't know where the Constitution allows the regulation of federal

138
00:07:36,560 --> 00:07:38,600
Speaker 3: law enforcement by local officials.

139
00:07:38,640 --> 00:07:40,920
Speaker 2: I just that clause I must have missed.

140
00:07:41,160 --> 00:07:43,120
Speaker 4: All I could think was, I'd really like to see

141
00:07:43,160 --> 00:07:44,680
Speaker 4: John Coleblt in a bollaklava.

142
00:07:45,960 --> 00:07:49,840
Speaker 2: I had balaclava at a Turkish restaurant once. Very good.

143
00:07:50,400 --> 00:07:54,960
Speaker 2: Oh that's baucleva baclava. Oh is there a dish like that?

144
00:07:56,560 --> 00:08:00,360
Speaker 2: See I'm not crazy? Are good?

145
00:08:00,360 --> 00:08:00,480
Speaker 1: Well?

146
00:08:00,480 --> 00:08:03,160
Speaker 3: Thank you, Michael Monks, my pleasure. John, all right, Michael Monks,

147
00:08:03,240 --> 00:08:07,440
Speaker 3: Kfi News Soles and Han. They know that they can't

148
00:08:07,480 --> 00:08:13,520
Speaker 3: do this. This is performance art, virtue signaling. It's nonsense.

149
00:08:15,360 --> 00:08:20,160
Speaker 3: They're such phonies, those two. The dumbest stumps, Absolutely the

150
00:08:20,280 --> 00:08:23,240
Speaker 3: dumbest stumps. But hey, it's LA voters. Look at the

151
00:08:23,360 --> 00:08:29,200
Speaker 3: LA voters produce. Karen bass Janis Han, Hilda Slise. I mean,

152
00:08:29,240 --> 00:08:35,200
Speaker 3: there's no end to these losers, no end emptiest heads

153
00:08:35,200 --> 00:08:39,480
Speaker 3: you'll ever see. All Right, we come back. Oh, by

154
00:08:39,520 --> 00:08:43,920
Speaker 3: the way, I'll wait until I come back on the

155
00:08:44,080 --> 00:08:47,440
Speaker 3: one of those I mentioned in the last segment that

156
00:08:47,480 --> 00:08:50,600
Speaker 3: there are a number of nonprofits, homeless nonprofits that are

157
00:08:50,640 --> 00:08:53,840
Speaker 3: whining and squealing because their funding is getting cut because

158
00:08:53,880 --> 00:08:55,480
Speaker 3: you know, the city in the county is broke and

159
00:08:55,480 --> 00:08:58,560
Speaker 3: the state is broken, so there's budget cuts and so

160
00:08:58,559 --> 00:09:02,640
Speaker 3: they're they're they're cutting some of the homeless spending. So

161
00:09:02,720 --> 00:09:06,840
Speaker 3: I looked up one of these nonprofits. I found all

162
00:09:06,880 --> 00:09:09,679
Speaker 3: their executives and their salaries at least as of twenty

163
00:09:09,720 --> 00:09:10,240
Speaker 3: twenty three.

164
00:09:11,080 --> 00:09:13,000
Speaker 2: Wait till you hear. Oh, I'm going to be pissed.

165
00:09:13,160 --> 00:09:17,520
Speaker 3: Wait do you hear how much these these useless losers

166
00:09:17,600 --> 00:09:21,480
Speaker 3: are making. They're supposed to be getting homeless off the streets. Yeah,

167
00:09:21,520 --> 00:09:24,320
Speaker 3: wait till you hear what they make. It's a racket.

168
00:09:24,440 --> 00:09:25,200
Speaker 3: It's a racket.

00:09:25,960 --> 00:09:30,280

175
00:09:47,080 --> 00:09:52,320

00:09:52,360 --> 00:09:55,400
Speaker 3: her guest. This week, we're discussing all the hottest news.

177
00:09:55,400 --> 00:09:58,800
Speaker 3: So Debor Cobet live on YouTube. The audio is also

178
00:09:58,880 --> 00:10:04,240
Speaker 3: on the iHeartRadio and we've got a new episode that

179
00:10:04,920 --> 00:10:06,000
Speaker 3: was posted this morning.

180
00:10:06,600 --> 00:10:08,160
Speaker 2: See you go to YouTube and watched that.

181
00:10:08,840 --> 00:10:13,320
Speaker 3: All right, So last hour I was telling you that

182
00:10:13,400 --> 00:10:19,599
Speaker 3: these nonprofits in La County are whining and squealing because

183
00:10:20,160 --> 00:10:24,200
Speaker 3: all levels of government in California are broke because of

184
00:10:24,280 --> 00:10:27,160
Speaker 3: the incompetent boobs that run the state, the county, and

185
00:10:27,240 --> 00:10:32,480
Speaker 3: the city. So the state is in deficit, too much

186
00:10:32,480 --> 00:10:37,040
Speaker 3: money spent on illegal aliens and illegal alien healthcare. The

187
00:10:37,120 --> 00:10:42,400
Speaker 3: county is busted. They have to make budget cuts. The city,

188
00:10:42,480 --> 00:10:49,080
Speaker 3: of course is way busted. And even even the homeless

189
00:10:49,080 --> 00:10:52,800
Speaker 3: agencies are now getting it in the shorts because there

190
00:10:52,840 --> 00:10:54,280
Speaker 3: simply is no more money.

191
00:10:55,520 --> 00:10:56,680
Speaker 2: They've blown so much.

192
00:10:59,760 --> 00:11:03,280
Speaker 3: And I was reading this article about some of the

193
00:11:03,320 --> 00:11:06,040
Speaker 3: nonprofits that were whining and complaining.

194
00:11:08,120 --> 00:11:09,880
Speaker 2: Let me see what did I do with the with

195
00:11:09,960 --> 00:11:10,600
Speaker 2: the sheet And.

196
00:11:10,559 --> 00:11:14,400
Speaker 3: There was one particular one called I got it up

197
00:11:14,400 --> 00:11:20,800
Speaker 3: on my screen here ah Union Station Homeless Services, And

198
00:11:21,120 --> 00:11:26,360
Speaker 3: there was an official with Union Station Homeless Services. Katie

199
00:11:26,480 --> 00:11:31,880
Speaker 3: Hill said the lack of funds has caused her organization

200
00:11:32,400 --> 00:11:38,559
Speaker 3: to pull back. This particular program was paying the rent

201
00:11:38,840 --> 00:11:42,120
Speaker 3: for homeless people for two years until they got back

202
00:11:42,160 --> 00:11:45,199
Speaker 3: on their feet and would help them find jobs. Can

203
00:11:45,200 --> 00:11:47,400
Speaker 3: you imagine two years you have to be taught how

204
00:11:47,400 --> 00:11:50,160
Speaker 3: to find a job, and then you get two years

205
00:11:50,200 --> 00:11:59,480
Speaker 3: of free rent. Well, I looked up Union Station Homeless Services. Now,

206
00:11:59,520 --> 00:12:03,920
Speaker 3: the last fiscal year that they have the records publicized

207
00:12:04,840 --> 00:12:08,640
Speaker 3: is June of twenty twenty three. They claim they get

208
00:12:08,720 --> 00:12:16,280
Speaker 3: all their money from contributions. Now, does that mean private

209
00:12:16,320 --> 00:12:22,400
Speaker 3: fundraising or does that mean tax grants? Taxpayer paid grants?

210
00:12:22,920 --> 00:12:29,240
Speaker 3: Doesn't say, but here's what they pay their key employees

211
00:12:29,280 --> 00:12:34,440
Speaker 3: and officers. You ready for this stubbor okay, whining and

212
00:12:34,480 --> 00:12:38,640
Speaker 3: complaining they don't have money to give free rent to

213
00:12:38,720 --> 00:12:43,400
Speaker 3: homeless people. These are the officials at the time twenty

214
00:12:43,400 --> 00:12:49,160
Speaker 3: twenty three, and Miski the CEO two hundred and forty

215
00:12:49,240 --> 00:12:54,439
Speaker 3: eight thousand dollars. What I said, two hundred and forty

216
00:12:54,440 --> 00:12:58,240
Speaker 3: eight thousand for doing what for being the CEO of

217
00:12:59,559 --> 00:13:02,360
Speaker 3: Union's station whatever the hell?

218
00:13:02,400 --> 00:13:03,080
Speaker 2: It's called.

219
00:13:04,400 --> 00:13:09,640
Speaker 3: Union Station Homeless Services. And then there's a second category

220
00:13:09,679 --> 00:13:14,040
Speaker 3: called other. I assume that's the benefits and it's twenty

221
00:13:14,120 --> 00:13:19,000
Speaker 3: nine thousand. So between the cash compensation and the benefits.

222
00:13:19,280 --> 00:13:22,280
Speaker 3: We're looking at two hundred and seventy seven thousand dollars,

223
00:13:23,760 --> 00:13:26,840
Speaker 3: and she is the top dog there. Amanda Green is

224
00:13:26,880 --> 00:13:30,320
Speaker 3: the chief operations officer, or was at the time, and

225
00:13:30,480 --> 00:13:33,880
Speaker 3: she gets a total of one hundred and fifty thousand.

226
00:13:36,200 --> 00:13:42,000
Speaker 3: Sarah Hopmayer, Chief Programs Officer. That's one hundred and forty

227
00:13:42,080 --> 00:13:49,960
Speaker 3: nine thousand dollars. Tyrone Friend, chief program Officer, he gets

228
00:13:50,000 --> 00:13:56,080
Speaker 3: one hundred and forty two thousand. Hope Stremski, Vice President

229
00:13:56,160 --> 00:14:01,840
Speaker 3: Contracts and Compliance. That's one hundred and thirty one thousand dollars.

230
00:14:02,640 --> 00:14:03,160
Speaker 2: There's more.

231
00:14:03,520 --> 00:14:10,720
Speaker 3: Sean Morrissey, Vice president Advocacy and Community Engagement. That's one

232
00:14:10,880 --> 00:14:18,839
Speaker 3: hundred and sixteen thousand dollars. Emily Aguire, Director CS and

233
00:14:18,880 --> 00:14:23,240
Speaker 3: Adult Services, that's one hundred and thirteen thousand dollars. So

234
00:14:23,280 --> 00:14:28,240
Speaker 3: that's one two, three, four, five, six, seven seven executives

235
00:14:28,960 --> 00:14:32,640
Speaker 3: at this union station homeless Services making more than one

236
00:14:32,720 --> 00:14:33,720
Speaker 3: hundred grand.

237
00:14:34,080 --> 00:14:37,520
Speaker 7: I have an idea, Yes, I think we should slash

238
00:14:37,560 --> 00:14:40,280
Speaker 7: that department and slash those salaries.

239
00:14:40,880 --> 00:14:45,120
Speaker 3: Uh yes, I think I think everybody, everybody's salary ought

240
00:14:45,120 --> 00:14:48,000
Speaker 3: to be cut in half. And and Misky's I don't

241
00:14:48,040 --> 00:14:50,200
Speaker 3: know she's not running it anymore. Probably I don't know

242
00:14:50,240 --> 00:14:52,960
Speaker 3: who's running it. Well, I guess this other woman. Yeah,

243
00:14:53,040 --> 00:14:55,920
Speaker 3: Katie Hill's another chief chief executives. She's the one who's

244
00:14:55,960 --> 00:14:58,720
Speaker 3: making two hundred and seventy seven thousand. Katie Hill, they

245
00:14:58,880 --> 00:15:01,880
Speaker 3: slashed that by two thirds.

246
00:15:01,560 --> 00:15:05,200
Speaker 7: Here everybody else, you know, look look at what happened

247
00:15:05,200 --> 00:15:06,600
Speaker 7: at our own news department here.

248
00:15:06,760 --> 00:15:12,400
Speaker 3: Oh, I know, they spend fifty two percent of their

249
00:15:12,440 --> 00:15:21,040
Speaker 3: revenue on compensation, salaries and wages. Fifty two percent. So

250
00:15:21,200 --> 00:15:24,040
Speaker 3: when you donate money or when tax money goes to

251
00:15:24,120 --> 00:15:27,800
Speaker 3: these outfits more than half cut off the top. It

252
00:15:27,880 --> 00:15:29,840
Speaker 3: doesn't go to buy a peanut butter sandwich for the

253
00:15:29,840 --> 00:15:33,320
Speaker 3: homeless person. It doesn't go to get them any rent

254
00:15:34,000 --> 00:15:38,920
Speaker 3: or medication. It goes to enrich these people. Then you

255
00:15:38,960 --> 00:15:43,920
Speaker 3: have Alexis Boothby programs officer. She got ninety seven thousand,

256
00:15:44,960 --> 00:15:51,360
Speaker 3: a Raji shifshanker, and she got eighty eighty two thousand.

257
00:15:51,760 --> 00:15:56,120
Speaker 3: These are all above average salaries, and some of them

258
00:15:56,160 --> 00:16:02,320
Speaker 3: are a top one percent salaries. It's just it's just

259
00:16:02,520 --> 00:16:06,560
Speaker 3: a it's a racket. I don't know what else to say.

260
00:16:08,400 --> 00:16:11,200
Speaker 3: And so the story I was talking about last hour

261
00:16:11,560 --> 00:16:14,600
Speaker 3: is even though they raised the LA County sales tax

262
00:16:14,600 --> 00:16:19,840
Speaker 3: by a half percent, voted on by the blockhead voters,

263
00:16:20,480 --> 00:16:23,760
Speaker 3: there's still short of money. And there's still two billion

264
00:16:23,800 --> 00:16:27,920
Speaker 3: dollars unaccounted for in Los Angeles County. Two billion that

265
00:16:28,160 --> 00:16:32,240
Speaker 3: no one is addressing other than the judges said, Hey,

266
00:16:32,400 --> 00:16:36,520
Speaker 3: the audit says two billion is missing. And Karen Bass

267
00:16:36,600 --> 00:16:40,040
Speaker 3: hired eleven attorneys, no exaggeration, No why you could look

268
00:16:40,040 --> 00:16:44,840
Speaker 3: it up? Eleven attorneys to keep from being interrogated about

269
00:16:44,880 --> 00:16:45,800
Speaker 3: it in court.

270
00:16:48,200 --> 00:16:49,080
Speaker 2: Because she knows.

271
00:16:50,760 --> 00:16:53,360
Speaker 3: How guilty do you have to be to hire eleven attorneys?

272
00:16:53,560 --> 00:16:54,960
Speaker 3: That's more than OJ had.

273
00:16:58,040 --> 00:17:00,720
Speaker 2: To me. That's the sign of guilt. How many attorneys

274
00:17:00,720 --> 00:17:03,640
Speaker 2: did you hire? Eleven that we all paid for.

275
00:17:03,800 --> 00:17:05,720
Speaker 7: I was gonna say, who's paying for those attorneys?

276
00:17:05,800 --> 00:17:06,000
Speaker 8: Yeah?

277
00:17:06,040 --> 00:17:08,960
Speaker 3: We are, We're paying for all these six figure salaries.

278
00:17:09,600 --> 00:17:11,080
Speaker 7: And are you eleven attorneys?

279
00:17:11,119 --> 00:17:14,920
Speaker 2: Eleven attorneys? That's right? Uh, all right, Well we come back.

280
00:17:14,960 --> 00:17:22,440
Speaker 3: I've got more on this stuff, because, oh it's funny.

281
00:17:22,480 --> 00:17:25,600
Speaker 3: The La Times story on this. Despite new sales tax,

282
00:17:26,119 --> 00:17:31,200
Speaker 3: LASA cuts back an effective path to housing. Oh it's effective. Yeah,

283
00:17:31,640 --> 00:17:37,400
Speaker 3: streets are cleared, of course, it is constant propaganda. All right,

284
00:17:37,840 --> 00:17:42,919
Speaker 3: here's this one. La County races for potentially massive financial

285
00:17:43,000 --> 00:17:47,119
Speaker 3: blow as Trump tries to crack down on homelessness. So

286
00:17:47,240 --> 00:17:50,440
Speaker 3: much federal money comes here and so much of it

287
00:17:50,480 --> 00:17:53,719
Speaker 3: will be cut off. Tell you about, Yeah, I know,

288
00:17:53,920 --> 00:17:55,600
Speaker 3: what are they going to do? What are these people

289
00:17:55,640 --> 00:17:56,560
Speaker 3: gonna do for a living?

290
00:17:57,680 --> 00:18:02,159
Speaker 6: You're listening to John Cobel's Man from KFI A six

291
00:18:02,320 --> 00:18:03,960
Speaker 6: forty 'ron.

292
00:18:04,000 --> 00:18:05,200
Speaker 2: From one until four o'clock.

293
00:18:05,240 --> 00:18:08,479
Speaker 3: After four o'clock, John co Belt Show on demand on

294
00:18:08,520 --> 00:18:12,359
Speaker 3: the iHeart app First Hour recovered the shooting in New

295
00:18:12,440 --> 00:18:15,080
Speaker 3: York City yesterday. Turns out it's a former high school

296
00:18:15,080 --> 00:18:18,800
Speaker 3: football player from Gernada Els. So if you listen to

297
00:18:18,800 --> 00:18:22,960
Speaker 3: the podcast you'll get all that information. Even have a

298
00:18:22,960 --> 00:18:25,280
Speaker 3: clip of an interview he did after a football game

299
00:18:25,560 --> 00:18:30,280
Speaker 3: about ten years ago. All right, we've been discussing how

300
00:18:30,600 --> 00:18:33,360
Speaker 3: the spigots are getting turned off for the homeless scam

301
00:18:33,600 --> 00:18:34,680
Speaker 3: here in La County.

302
00:18:35,320 --> 00:18:36,320
Speaker 2: They've had a good run.

303
00:18:36,320 --> 00:18:38,840
Speaker 3: They've had over ten years of blowing billions and billions

304
00:18:38,840 --> 00:18:40,960
Speaker 3: of dollars, and everything got worse and worse. But right

305
00:18:40,960 --> 00:18:43,840
Speaker 3: now everybody's out of Mountie. Everybody's out of money. The

306
00:18:43,880 --> 00:18:46,920
Speaker 3: county's broke, the city's broke, the state has broke, and

307
00:18:47,000 --> 00:18:50,479
Speaker 3: so there's budget cuts. There's two billion dollars still missing

308
00:18:51,080 --> 00:18:56,159
Speaker 3: from LASA. Karen Bass can't explain it and won't explain it.

309
00:18:57,080 --> 00:19:00,760
Speaker 3: I mean she can, but she won't. Now this story.

310
00:19:02,200 --> 00:19:06,320
Speaker 3: I love the headline. La County braces for potentially massive

311
00:19:06,359 --> 00:19:11,040
Speaker 3: financial blow as Trump tries to crack down on homelessness.

312
00:19:11,240 --> 00:19:14,919
Speaker 3: See because we have such bad governing here. Trump is

313
00:19:14,960 --> 00:19:20,119
Speaker 3: trying to govern California remotely from Washington. He managed to

314
00:19:20,200 --> 00:19:26,040
Speaker 3: ban the electric vehicle mandate, things like that, And now

315
00:19:27,000 --> 00:19:31,960
Speaker 3: since the homeless industry has failed, since newsman Bass have failed,

316
00:19:32,480 --> 00:19:36,439
Speaker 3: Trump has decided that no more money for you. So

317
00:19:36,520 --> 00:19:40,720
Speaker 3: the Executive Order will shift federal grant money to states

318
00:19:40,720 --> 00:19:47,240
Speaker 3: and cities that do the following. They enforce prohibitions on

319
00:19:47,440 --> 00:19:52,600
Speaker 3: urban camping. Who came up with that term? Urban camping

320
00:19:56,480 --> 00:20:00,560
Speaker 3: that's also known as sleeping in the street. Also get

321
00:20:00,600 --> 00:20:04,880
Speaker 3: federal money if you enforce prohibitions on drug use.

322
00:20:06,160 --> 00:20:08,000
Speaker 2: And if you adopt policies.

323
00:20:07,520 --> 00:20:12,280
Speaker 3: Allowing people with mental illness or drug disorders to be

324
00:20:12,359 --> 00:20:13,440
Speaker 3: forced into treatment.

325
00:20:13,720 --> 00:20:17,879
Speaker 2: Ah, what did I say before? The only thing it'll work?

326
00:20:18,280 --> 00:20:21,760
Speaker 3: And according to my sources, in La City, the people

327
00:20:22,000 --> 00:20:26,040
Speaker 3: you see left on the streets are drug addicts and

328
00:20:26,119 --> 00:20:32,040
Speaker 3: mental patients. But the Caaren pass does not allow The

329
00:20:32,080 --> 00:20:38,359
Speaker 3: city council does not allow police and other officials to

330
00:20:38,640 --> 00:20:46,960
Speaker 3: force them into mental health or drug treatment. She won't

331
00:20:47,000 --> 00:20:52,239
Speaker 3: allow it. City Council Marquise Dawson will not allow it.

332
00:20:53,400 --> 00:20:56,639
Speaker 3: The Supreme Court says no one has the right to

333
00:20:56,640 --> 00:20:59,520
Speaker 3: sleep in public, said that a year ago. Many cities

334
00:20:59,520 --> 00:21:06,639
Speaker 3: have adopted policies that enforce their local loss because it's constitutional.

335
00:21:07,320 --> 00:21:11,800
Speaker 3: You have no right, Supreme Court said some. Gavin Newsom

336
00:21:12,520 --> 00:21:17,159
Speaker 3: piggybacked on that, said, I'm going to cut off funding

337
00:21:18,040 --> 00:21:20,480
Speaker 3: unless you get everybody.

338
00:21:20,080 --> 00:21:20,639
Speaker 2: Off the street.

339
00:21:20,760 --> 00:21:24,320
Speaker 3: Of course he hasn't, but Trump when he says this,

340
00:21:24,520 --> 00:21:32,880
Speaker 3: he means it still. Karen Bass refuses to there's some

341
00:21:33,160 --> 00:21:38,120
Speaker 3: who's this winer here? Sarah Maheen, director of La County's

342
00:21:38,160 --> 00:21:42,760
Speaker 3: new homelessness department, Yeah, yeah, County pulled out a LASSA.

343
00:21:45,200 --> 00:21:49,040
Speaker 3: So with the city, the county, and the state all broke.

344
00:21:49,680 --> 00:21:53,239
Speaker 3: Now Trump is pulling out federal money. Mahines said at

345
00:21:53,280 --> 00:21:56,800
Speaker 3: a meeting, the federal government is on an all out

346
00:21:56,800 --> 00:22:02,680
Speaker 3: of assault on funding and services for our most vulnerable. Yes,

347
00:22:03,280 --> 00:22:06,080
Speaker 3: the guy vomiting on your shoes, About the woman who

348
00:22:06,160 --> 00:22:10,199
Speaker 3: is dropping her feces in front of Whole Foods the

349
00:22:10,200 --> 00:22:14,720
Speaker 3: other day in my neighborhood most vulnerable. Our housing authorities

350
00:22:14,760 --> 00:22:17,920
Speaker 3: no longer have vouchers to issue. Medical is being cut,

351
00:22:18,119 --> 00:22:20,960
Speaker 3: food assistance is being cut. The people we serve here

352
00:22:21,040 --> 00:22:24,719
Speaker 3: more risk than ever before. Resources are disappearing. The people

353
00:22:24,800 --> 00:22:27,800
Speaker 3: you serve, well, that wouldn't be the taxpayers who pay

354
00:22:27,840 --> 00:22:28,200
Speaker 3: the bills.

355
00:22:28,200 --> 00:22:29,200
Speaker 2: You're not serving us.

356
00:22:30,200 --> 00:22:33,439
Speaker 3: You're serving all the derrel liixen drifters who wandered in

357
00:22:33,520 --> 00:22:36,639
Speaker 3: from the other forty nine states and came here because

358
00:22:36,640 --> 00:22:37,800
Speaker 3: you get such a free ride.

359
00:22:39,359 --> 00:22:40,400
Speaker 2: Sarah Mahin.

360
00:22:42,440 --> 00:22:47,480
Speaker 3: Maheen is running this new department, says more significant cuts

361
00:22:47,480 --> 00:22:47,879
Speaker 3: to come.

362
00:22:48,760 --> 00:22:49,480
Speaker 2: Here's another one.

363
00:22:49,520 --> 00:22:57,680
Speaker 3: Amy Perkins, homelessness advisor to county supervisor Lindsay Horvath, another

364
00:22:57,720 --> 00:23:03,359
Speaker 3: one of the blockheads. She talked with federal representatives from

365
00:23:03,440 --> 00:23:06,960
Speaker 3: the Department of Housing and Urban Development and they indicated

366
00:23:07,000 --> 00:23:09,000
Speaker 3: they're going to put more homeless funding out of LA.

367
00:23:10,880 --> 00:23:12,840
Speaker 3: She talked with a Trump appoint to you made it

368
00:23:13,080 --> 00:23:16,440
Speaker 3: very clear that he's going to recommend there will be

369
00:23:16,560 --> 00:23:18,800
Speaker 3: no funding coming to our city.

370
00:23:19,680 --> 00:23:20,359
Speaker 2: How about that?

371
00:23:20,960 --> 00:23:27,120
Speaker 3: No federal homeless funding coming to Los Angeles. And that's

372
00:23:27,160 --> 00:23:31,480
Speaker 3: a lot of money, because in February, LASA had said

373
00:23:31,480 --> 00:23:33,840
Speaker 3: that the federal government had awarded them more than two

374
00:23:33,880 --> 00:23:38,399
Speaker 3: hundred million dollars, thirty one million dollar increase over the

375
00:23:38,440 --> 00:23:39,120
Speaker 3: previous year.

376
00:23:41,080 --> 00:23:43,760
Speaker 2: Now, those are the Biden days, no more.

377
00:23:45,280 --> 00:23:49,840
Speaker 3: Unless you force people off the street, you force them

378
00:23:49,880 --> 00:23:53,280
Speaker 3: into mental health treatment, you forced them into drug treatment.

379
00:23:56,960 --> 00:23:59,960
Speaker 3: You arrest them if necessary for using drugs in public,

380
00:24:02,119 --> 00:24:05,840
Speaker 3: you arrest them if necessary for sleeping on public land.

381
00:24:06,560 --> 00:24:08,280
Speaker 3: Then you'll get your money. You'll get your two hundred

382
00:24:08,320 --> 00:24:10,320
Speaker 3: million dollars. But if you don't do that, you don't

383
00:24:10,320 --> 00:24:15,879
Speaker 3: get it. And since it's the federal government's tax money,

384
00:24:16,320 --> 00:24:17,359
Speaker 3: they get to call the shots.

385
00:24:17,400 --> 00:24:19,760
Speaker 2: They don't have to give it to LA. Those days

386
00:24:19,800 --> 00:24:20,200
Speaker 2: are over.

387
00:24:20,720 --> 00:24:23,800
Speaker 3: You blew through billions and billions of dollars and you

388
00:24:23,840 --> 00:24:25,840
Speaker 3: can't even account for what you spent it on.

389
00:24:26,880 --> 00:24:30,440
Speaker 2: So now you're being punished. You're being punished because you're

390
00:24:30,440 --> 00:24:32,800
Speaker 2: a bunch of thieves. They are there are a bunch

391
00:24:32,800 --> 00:24:34,919
Speaker 2: of thieves. They ought to be in prison.

392
00:24:38,400 --> 00:24:41,600
Speaker 3: Honest to god, I wish somebody would do a federal

393
00:24:41,600 --> 00:24:45,960
Speaker 3: investigation where all this money went, and I want to

394
00:24:45,960 --> 00:24:48,120
Speaker 3: see a purple walk. I want to see all these

395
00:24:48,720 --> 00:24:53,440
Speaker 3: homeless bureaucrats in cuffs and leg irons, like a parade

396
00:24:54,240 --> 00:24:57,800
Speaker 3: going down whilst your boulevard into a federal prison.

397
00:25:01,000 --> 00:25:01,480
Speaker 2: Almost this.

398
00:25:01,640 --> 00:25:04,960
Speaker 3: Officials in La Sim said some federal funding sources are

399
00:25:05,040 --> 00:25:10,639
Speaker 3: drying up soon because these these spending plans are expiring.

400
00:25:13,080 --> 00:25:15,399
Speaker 3: But they are getting extra billion dollars from Measure A,

401
00:25:15,600 --> 00:25:19,040
Speaker 3: which I mentioned frequently. That's the voters approved that sales

402
00:25:19,080 --> 00:25:22,359
Speaker 3: tax increase. That's a billion dollars flushed into the sere.

403
00:25:24,440 --> 00:25:27,240
Speaker 3: Do you know it was a year ago that Newsom

404
00:25:27,320 --> 00:25:31,639
Speaker 3: issued in order telling cities to dismantle homeless encampments, and

405
00:25:32,240 --> 00:25:38,280
Speaker 3: Karen Bass said no, But Newsom never cut off the money.

406
00:25:38,440 --> 00:25:43,480
Speaker 3: Trump is going to cut off the money. Newsom just blusters,

407
00:25:44,160 --> 00:25:46,520
Speaker 3: he fakes it, He lies, Oh, I'm going to cut

408
00:25:46,520 --> 00:25:47,000
Speaker 3: off the money.

409
00:25:47,040 --> 00:25:49,480
Speaker 2: Well no, you didn't. I know you won't.

410
00:25:49,720 --> 00:25:54,000
Speaker 3: But Trump cut off the money. Go ask like Harvard

411
00:25:54,040 --> 00:25:57,960
Speaker 3: and Columbia, they had billions of dollars in research money

412
00:25:57,960 --> 00:26:02,720
Speaker 3: cut off until they stopped their anti anti jew policies.

413
00:26:04,320 --> 00:26:06,320
Speaker 3: Speaking of UCLA is going to pay six and a

414
00:26:06,359 --> 00:26:10,080
Speaker 3: half million dollars to settle a suit by Jewish students

415
00:26:12,200 --> 00:26:21,480
Speaker 3: because because they created a very hostile environment for Jewish students,

416
00:26:22,160 --> 00:26:24,040
Speaker 3: and so now they're going to have to pay off

417
00:26:24,200 --> 00:26:25,600
Speaker 3: money to settle a lawsuit.

418
00:26:26,560 --> 00:26:30,919
Speaker 6: You're listening to John Cobelt on demand from KFI AM

Speaker 3: talked about the news of the past week and that

425
00:26:51,200 --> 00:26:54,000
Speaker 3: was posted this morning Debora Cobelt Live on YouTube and

426
00:26:54,040 --> 00:26:55,760
Speaker 3: the audio is on the iHeartRadio app.

427
00:26:56,240 --> 00:26:59,920
Speaker 2: Is that enough plugs and promos? All right? This crack

428
00:27:00,160 --> 00:27:00,439
Speaker 2: me up?

429
00:27:02,760 --> 00:27:07,600
Speaker 3: I was telling Eric, I've got this real weakness that

430
00:27:08,280 --> 00:27:12,160
Speaker 3: whenever I like to watch old comedy shows from years

431
00:27:12,160 --> 00:27:15,480
Speaker 3: and decades ago, and often in comedy sketches back then,

432
00:27:15,600 --> 00:27:17,680
Speaker 3: they'd have some guy with a dupe or a wig,

433
00:27:18,000 --> 00:27:19,800
Speaker 3: and something would happen and the wig would fly off.

434
00:27:19,840 --> 00:27:22,640
Speaker 3: There'd be augusta wind or he'd be in some kind

435
00:27:22,640 --> 00:27:26,280
Speaker 3: of struggle and the tupe would come flying off, sometimes

436
00:27:26,320 --> 00:27:29,040
Speaker 3: just halfway. Sometimes the wig would blow down the street.

437
00:27:29,240 --> 00:27:31,560
Speaker 3: For some reason, I fall off my couch laughing when

438
00:27:31,560 --> 00:27:36,680
Speaker 3: I see that, just every single time. And it happened

439
00:27:36,720 --> 00:27:43,119
Speaker 3: in a WNBA game. There is a player named Kalia Copper.

440
00:27:45,560 --> 00:27:50,320
Speaker 2: I guess she at the I guess.

441
00:27:50,440 --> 00:27:54,800
Speaker 3: Oh, she plays for the Phoenix Mercury and they were

442
00:27:54,800 --> 00:27:57,600
Speaker 3: playing against the Washington Mystics. I don't know anything about

443
00:27:57,600 --> 00:28:02,080
Speaker 3: the WNBA, me and three hundred and forty million other people.

444
00:28:03,680 --> 00:28:05,920
Speaker 3: By the way, they lose a ton of money every year,

445
00:28:05,960 --> 00:28:08,200
Speaker 3: don't they. Yeah, about forty million dollars a year. Oh,

446
00:28:08,760 --> 00:28:14,520
Speaker 3: it's like Stephen Colbert show. The NBA subsidizes them, all right, Well, yeah,

447
00:28:14,520 --> 00:28:18,720
Speaker 3: it's a free country. Uh So Kalia Cooper was trying.

448
00:28:18,960 --> 00:28:20,800
Speaker 3: They were on offense. She was trying to get open.

449
00:28:21,280 --> 00:28:24,680
Speaker 3: She was maneuvering around a screen, but as she rounded

450
00:28:24,680 --> 00:28:27,919
Speaker 3: the screen, her wig flew off. We're gonna play you

451
00:28:28,440 --> 00:28:31,880
Speaker 3: two clips here. The first one. Uh the wig comes off,

452
00:28:32,359 --> 00:28:37,159
Speaker 3: but the announcer is too chicken to describe it to

453
00:28:37,240 --> 00:28:38,120
Speaker 3: the viewers at home.

454
00:28:38,920 --> 00:28:41,840
Speaker 2: It bounced around a lot, but at the end, I

455
00:28:41,960 --> 00:28:47,640
Speaker 2: went through the roup. Oh no, oh, no, oh no,

456
00:28:47,880 --> 00:28:55,000
Speaker 2: she gonna go ahead to the back. Oh no, time out, Caul.

457
00:28:56,640 --> 00:29:03,360
Speaker 8: Cour Copper to deal with the malfunction.

458
00:29:04,400 --> 00:29:12,680
Speaker 3: Deal with the malfunction, Deal with the malfunction. And then

459
00:29:12,920 --> 00:29:16,400
Speaker 3: there was this long period of silence. She wouldn't say, oh, look,

460
00:29:16,440 --> 00:29:21,160
Speaker 3: her wing fell off. Why wouldn't she say that? Was

461
00:29:21,160 --> 00:29:24,440
Speaker 3: that considered in bad taste for it? You're supposed to describe?

462
00:29:25,160 --> 00:29:27,680
Speaker 3: And the camera cut away and you couldn't tell what

463
00:29:27,800 --> 00:29:30,240
Speaker 3: happened other than oh no, oh no. And then at

464
00:29:30,240 --> 00:29:35,720
Speaker 3: the very end they cut to the darkened hallway that

465
00:29:35,880 --> 00:29:39,800
Speaker 3: leads to the locker room, and this Khalia Copper is

466
00:29:39,880 --> 00:29:42,320
Speaker 3: running with the wig in her hand. You could see

467
00:29:42,320 --> 00:29:48,920
Speaker 3: her holding the wig as she's running into the see

468
00:29:49,080 --> 00:29:52,960
Speaker 3: wind flies off. I can't get enough of this. And

469
00:29:53,000 --> 00:29:56,640
Speaker 3: then we're gonna play a second clip here. I guess

470
00:29:57,160 --> 00:30:00,200
Speaker 3: somebody in the stands started making fun of co A

471
00:30:00,200 --> 00:30:04,480
Speaker 3: Copper losing her wig. The teammates have no sense of humor.

472
00:30:05,040 --> 00:30:07,600
Speaker 3: They should be falling off the bench laughing, like in

473
00:30:07,640 --> 00:30:10,320
Speaker 3: an NBA game. The guys would be laughing their asses off, right.

474
00:30:10,360 --> 00:30:13,360
Speaker 3: Probably if some idiot player actually were a two pay,

475
00:30:13,400 --> 00:30:18,520
Speaker 3: which I can't imagine, the other male players would be hysterical,

476
00:30:18,640 --> 00:30:19,960
Speaker 3: lying on their back screaming.

477
00:30:20,120 --> 00:30:25,560
Speaker 6: Imagine he's got a two pay attached to his headband.

478
00:30:25,280 --> 00:30:29,160
Speaker 3: But the women on the bench were all outraged and

479
00:30:29,200 --> 00:30:32,520
Speaker 3: they demanded that the fan be ejected and listen to

480
00:30:32,520 --> 00:30:33,080
Speaker 3: the description.

481
00:30:33,280 --> 00:30:34,040
Speaker 6: And now they have.

482
00:30:35,680 --> 00:30:37,600
Speaker 4: An issue with a fan.

483
00:30:39,960 --> 00:30:41,520
Speaker 1: As the officials.

484
00:30:43,080 --> 00:30:44,640
Speaker 8: And as Phoenix Sus bench.

485
00:30:44,440 --> 00:30:47,880
Speaker 1: Had an issue there having Alyssa Thomas and Nate Tibbets

486
00:30:47,960 --> 00:30:50,040
Speaker 1: point out which fan it.

487
00:30:50,080 --> 00:30:54,360
Speaker 8: Is, so that security here at care First Arena.

488
00:30:54,080 --> 00:31:04,920
Speaker 1: Can have that if you're dealt with. As we're waiting to.

489
00:31:04,840 --> 00:31:09,520
Speaker 4: Get back to play here, she wouldn't even describe this coherently.

490
00:31:09,800 --> 00:31:12,600
Speaker 1: The officials are now talking to arena security here.

491
00:31:13,680 --> 00:31:30,120
Speaker 8: As you can see, so a fan said something the

492
00:31:30,160 --> 00:31:34,320
Speaker 8: Phoenix Mercury bench hurt it and they did not like

493
00:31:34,440 --> 00:31:35,160
Speaker 8: what was said.

494
00:31:35,400 --> 00:31:36,760
Speaker 1: They're taking exception to it.

495
00:31:36,840 --> 00:31:40,160
Speaker 8: So Amy Bonnor cruchief is trying to have this sorted

496
00:31:40,200 --> 00:31:41,600
Speaker 8: out with the arena.

497
00:31:41,320 --> 00:31:45,480
Speaker 2: Security here as to which.

498
00:31:45,880 --> 00:31:48,000
Speaker 1: The person it was, and that way they can get

499
00:31:48,000 --> 00:31:51,160
Speaker 1: it taken care of. In point lead to start this

500
00:31:51,280 --> 00:31:52,160
Speaker 1: for orders.

501
00:31:53,320 --> 00:31:57,560
Speaker 2: Are scared of. She never said what the whole issue

502
00:31:57,600 --> 00:31:57,960
Speaker 2: was about.

503
00:31:58,120 --> 00:32:00,440
Speaker 3: And if you listen closely to that, the ref is

504
00:32:00,480 --> 00:32:06,920
Speaker 3: saying that she was being made fun of. They made

505
00:32:06,920 --> 00:32:13,760
Speaker 3: fun of her, They made fun of her, well, her

506
00:32:13,800 --> 00:32:16,600
Speaker 3: wig flew off. That's like Vudville comedy.

507
00:32:18,040 --> 00:32:18,520
Speaker 2: Of course you.

508
00:32:18,600 --> 00:32:21,440
Speaker 3: Make fun of her. Well, everyone's treating the w NBA

509
00:32:21,560 --> 00:32:27,960
Speaker 3: so referently. What what what is this? So security moved

510
00:32:28,000 --> 00:32:31,560
Speaker 3: towards the Mercury bench. Players pointed out the fan, who

511
00:32:31,680 --> 00:32:38,440
Speaker 3: was then kicked out of the game. I've never I've

512
00:32:38,440 --> 00:32:40,880
Speaker 3: never seen an NBA a w n B a clip

513
00:32:40,960 --> 00:32:45,640
Speaker 3: so entertaining. That's that's the best thing that ever happened.

514
00:32:46,920 --> 00:32:50,840
Speaker 3: But what was there some sort of unwritten rule? How

515
00:32:50,840 --> 00:32:52,440
Speaker 3: many players wear wigs?

516
00:32:54,560 --> 00:32:55,360
Speaker 2: I don't understand.

517
00:32:56,120 --> 00:33:00,160
