He 11 00:00:35,800 --> 00:00:41,960 Speaker 2: needs cash badly to put up bond for that that business. 12 00:00:44,320 --> 00:00:46,159 Speaker 2: I don't know how to describe it I've had. It's 13 00:00:46,200 --> 00:00:49,600 Speaker 2: so absurd that he got that. He got fined four 14 00:00:49,680 --> 00:00:52,400 Speaker 2: hundred and fifty billion dollars and they seem to want 15 00:00:52,400 --> 00:00:56,000 Speaker 2: it immediately. And he doesn't have much of his net 16 00:00:56,000 --> 00:01:00,279 Speaker 2: worth in liquid form. So while there's been headline every 17 00:01:00,360 --> 00:01:02,000 Speaker 2: day on how he's going to come up with the 18 00:01:02,000 --> 00:01:06,679 Speaker 2: four hundred and fifty four million, suddenly he may have 19 00:01:06,760 --> 00:01:11,480 Speaker 2: gained three billion dollars on paper by merging his social 20 00:01:11,520 --> 00:01:17,120 Speaker 2: media company Truth Social with something called Digital World Acquisition Corporation, 21 00:01:18,280 --> 00:01:21,840 Speaker 2: and then poof his share of the company is good 22 00:01:21,880 --> 00:01:26,440 Speaker 2: for three billion. So we called Dave Packer, ABC News correspondent, 23 00:01:26,800 --> 00:01:28,240 Speaker 2: and he's supposed to know these things. 24 00:01:28,959 --> 00:01:30,160 Speaker 1: Dave, welcome Street. 25 00:01:30,240 --> 00:01:31,840 Speaker 3: You can just all of a sudden, you can just 26 00:01:32,000 --> 00:01:34,400 Speaker 3: create three billion dollars. 27 00:01:35,400 --> 00:01:38,000 Speaker 2: Well, I want to do this. I want you to 28 00:01:38,040 --> 00:01:40,640 Speaker 2: tell me how to do this, and then we'll get started. Here, 29 00:01:41,600 --> 00:01:44,960 Speaker 2: can you what is Digital World Acquisition Corporation? 30 00:01:45,360 --> 00:01:48,880 Speaker 3: But they were Here's what they on their their They 31 00:01:48,880 --> 00:01:51,800 Speaker 3: actually have a website. We are a blank check company 32 00:01:51,800 --> 00:01:54,400 Speaker 3: which was born for the purpose of acquiring engaging in 33 00:01:54,440 --> 00:01:57,600 Speaker 3: a share exchange, share reconstruction and amalgamation with it purchase, 34 00:01:57,640 --> 00:02:01,240 Speaker 3: he live and I can't go. Only it's a company 35 00:02:01,280 --> 00:02:04,680 Speaker 3: that was formed to do exactly what they're doing right now, 36 00:02:04,960 --> 00:02:10,200 Speaker 3: which is to get investors to drive the value of 37 00:02:10,240 --> 00:02:15,200 Speaker 3: this acquisition company higher so that at a certain point 38 00:02:15,320 --> 00:02:18,800 Speaker 3: it would be able to merge with the Truth Social 39 00:02:19,320 --> 00:02:25,040 Speaker 3: and have Truth Social trade on the Nasdaq as a 40 00:02:25,080 --> 00:02:31,040 Speaker 3: public company, but without going through an IPO. So and 41 00:02:31,080 --> 00:02:35,079 Speaker 3: in this way, Trump has all of a sudden because now, 42 00:02:35,080 --> 00:02:38,080 Speaker 3: by the way that the head of this Digital World 43 00:02:38,120 --> 00:02:41,560 Speaker 3: Acquisition Corporation is a gentleman named Devin Nunez, and I 44 00:02:41,560 --> 00:02:42,959 Speaker 3: think that name might ring a bell. 45 00:02:43,480 --> 00:02:47,520 Speaker 2: So, yeah, he's a congressman out here in California, right right. 46 00:02:47,680 --> 00:02:50,200 Speaker 3: So I think there are you know, there are Trump 47 00:02:50,240 --> 00:02:53,400 Speaker 3: friendly people on both sides. And the folks that are 48 00:02:53,400 --> 00:02:57,400 Speaker 3: investing in this on Wall Street. Our folks that on 49 00:02:57,440 --> 00:03:00,520 Speaker 3: truth Social have kind of it's almost like when Game 50 00:03:00,600 --> 00:03:03,240 Speaker 3: stop that when they drove that up. You know a 51 00:03:03,280 --> 00:03:07,360 Speaker 3: lot of the Trump maga folks have bought this stock 52 00:03:07,480 --> 00:03:10,240 Speaker 3: and you know, are kind of cheering each other on 53 00:03:10,320 --> 00:03:13,320 Speaker 3: as the price of it goes up. And so they 54 00:03:13,600 --> 00:03:18,560 Speaker 3: at this point they they made the deal and Trump again, 55 00:03:18,680 --> 00:03:21,079 Speaker 3: you know, the whole thing five billion dollars. Trump, as 56 00:03:21,080 --> 00:03:24,280 Speaker 3: you said, with a sixty percent stake, is worth about 57 00:03:24,280 --> 00:03:24,800 Speaker 3: three billion. 58 00:03:25,160 --> 00:03:28,160 Speaker 2: Can I just review this because my head is sure start. So, 59 00:03:28,240 --> 00:03:33,239 Speaker 2: this Digital World Acquisition Corporation doesn't actually make anything, it's not, no, 60 00:03:34,120 --> 00:03:38,360 Speaker 2: So it was just set up to invest in other companies. 61 00:03:39,000 --> 00:03:40,920 Speaker 3: Or this particular company. 62 00:03:40,960 --> 00:03:44,720 Speaker 2: This particular company now now truth Social doesn't have a 63 00:03:44,760 --> 00:03:47,200 Speaker 2: lot of users and doesn't have much revenue. 64 00:03:47,240 --> 00:03:47,680 Speaker 1: Is that right? 65 00:03:47,800 --> 00:03:50,520 Speaker 3: Only only made less than ten million dollars last year. 66 00:03:50,680 --> 00:03:53,640 Speaker 2: Okay, so the company makes less than ten million. Digital 67 00:03:53,640 --> 00:03:57,640 Speaker 2: World Acquisition doesn't make anything. They merged together, and it 68 00:03:57,680 --> 00:04:01,200 Speaker 2: makes Trump three billion dollars because Trump's fans are bidding 69 00:04:01,280 --> 00:04:02,120 Speaker 2: up the stock price. 70 00:04:02,920 --> 00:04:03,800 Speaker 3: I think you got it. 71 00:04:04,640 --> 00:04:07,640 Speaker 1: What a racket, right, that's legal? 72 00:04:09,840 --> 00:04:12,040 Speaker 3: First thing is like you know the folks playing the 73 00:04:12,040 --> 00:04:14,320 Speaker 3: power ball, they got nothing on this? Right? 74 00:04:14,920 --> 00:04:18,760 Speaker 1: Seriously, how can I do this? And here's by the. 75 00:04:18,720 --> 00:04:22,040 Speaker 3: Way, sidebar, sidebar to all of this. Trump today insisting 76 00:04:22,120 --> 00:04:24,800 Speaker 3: that he does not lack the cash. He says he 77 00:04:25,200 --> 00:04:28,800 Speaker 3: has almost five hundred million dollars in cash, a substantial 78 00:04:28,839 --> 00:04:31,080 Speaker 3: amount of which I intend to use in my campaign. 79 00:04:31,400 --> 00:04:33,680 Speaker 3: He doesn't want to use it for the bond. But 80 00:04:33,720 --> 00:04:36,599 Speaker 3: you know, now, is he talking about this money that 81 00:04:36,680 --> 00:04:38,320 Speaker 3: he just made? 82 00:04:38,480 --> 00:04:39,119 Speaker 1: I'm not sure. 83 00:04:39,200 --> 00:04:39,839 Speaker 2: Now he can't. 84 00:04:40,200 --> 00:04:43,360 Speaker 1: He can't sell the shares for a while, right, that's right? 85 00:04:43,880 --> 00:04:47,120 Speaker 2: Months can he borrow against the shares and use that 86 00:04:47,240 --> 00:04:51,000 Speaker 2: cash to satisfy the bond in that civil case in 87 00:04:51,000 --> 00:04:51,440 Speaker 2: New York? 88 00:04:51,960 --> 00:04:54,159 Speaker 3: Unclear? I mean there's something in there that says, you know, 89 00:04:54,200 --> 00:04:56,440 Speaker 3: you're not allowed to have sell it or have any 90 00:04:56,520 --> 00:05:00,280 Speaker 3: encumbrances against it. But how that, hey, mate, you will 91 00:05:00,279 --> 00:05:02,159 Speaker 3: go to court and figure out what that means. Again, 92 00:05:02,360 --> 00:05:04,040 Speaker 3: we'll get some more lawyers out of the case. But 93 00:05:04,279 --> 00:05:09,240 Speaker 3: one thing's possible. The shell company could grant a waiver 94 00:05:09,760 --> 00:05:11,760 Speaker 3: that would allow him to Uh. 95 00:05:13,480 --> 00:05:14,880 Speaker 1: So this really is a shell company. 96 00:05:14,880 --> 00:05:18,680 Speaker 2: There's absolutely nothing of value inside this Digital World Acquisition 97 00:05:18,760 --> 00:05:21,440 Speaker 2: Corporation CORECT correct. 98 00:05:22,320 --> 00:05:28,560 Speaker 3: Really that's it's people who have put, you know, put 99 00:05:28,600 --> 00:05:32,560 Speaker 3: this acquisition company as a publicly traded company, and and 100 00:05:32,640 --> 00:05:35,240 Speaker 3: the shares have been bid up.

It absolutely is rigged. 171 00:08:50,559 --> 00:08:54,920 Speaker 5: You're listening to John Cobelt on demand from KFI AM 172 00:08:54,920 --> 00:08:55,480 Speaker 5: six forty. 173 00:08:56,760 --> 00:08:58,079 Speaker 1: We're gonna have Nathan Hawkman on. 174 00:08:58,840 --> 00:09:02,840 Speaker 2: He's the good guy running for District attorney against George Gascone. 175 00:09:02,840 --> 00:09:03,319 Speaker 1: In November. 176 00:09:03,360 --> 00:09:06,640 Speaker 2: He won the primary, we won a slot in the 177 00:09:06,679 --> 00:09:10,680 Speaker 2: finals during the March primary, came in second place behind Gascon. 178 00:09:11,040 --> 00:09:15,080 Speaker 2: But the anti Gascone vote was almost seventy five percent, 179 00:09:15,880 --> 00:09:20,480 Speaker 2: So Hawkman should be able to consolidate all the anti 180 00:09:20,520 --> 00:09:26,720 Speaker 2: Gascon vote, I believe well. The Assistant District Attorney's Association, 181 00:09:27,240 --> 00:09:31,920 Speaker 2: which included a number of number of his opponents, has 182 00:09:32,160 --> 00:09:35,160 Speaker 2: endorsed Nathan Hawkman, and we're going to talk about that 183 00:09:35,200 --> 00:09:38,760 Speaker 2: among other things coming up after three o'clock. So everybody 184 00:09:38,800 --> 00:09:41,840 Speaker 2: should be on one side here. Nobody should be on 185 00:09:41,880 --> 00:09:47,760 Speaker 2: Gascon's side. There is yet another twist in the Alaska 186 00:09:47,800 --> 00:09:53,360 Speaker 2: Airlines door blowout case. This may be a crime, a crime. 187 00:09:54,400 --> 00:09:58,480 Speaker 2: The FBI thinks that the FBI office in Seattle sent 188 00:09:58,720 --> 00:10:03,920 Speaker 2: a letter to passengers who are on the plane. And 189 00:10:04,280 --> 00:10:09,080 Speaker 2: we've got a report here from ABC News reporter Lionel Moist. 190 00:10:11,120 --> 00:10:14,360 Speaker 6: This morning, the CEO of Boeing, Dave Calhoun, heading to 191 00:10:14,400 --> 00:10:16,920 Speaker 6: Capitol Hill meeting with lawmakers in the wake of the 192 00:10:16,960 --> 00:10:20,920 Speaker 6: Alaska Airlines midair door blowout on a seven thirty seven 193 00:10:21,040 --> 00:10:25,880 Speaker 6: Max nine this month for three, Alaska Airline CEO Ben 194 00:10:25,920 --> 00:10:30,720 Speaker 6: Minicucci also speaking out, saying he's frustrated and angry, adding 195 00:10:30,760 --> 00:10:34,360 Speaker 6: that inspectors have now found loose bolts on many of 196 00:10:34,400 --> 00:10:37,880 Speaker 6: the Max nine jets grounded since the incident. Minicuci is 197 00:10:37,920 --> 00:10:41,840 Speaker 6: sending his own inspectors to audit Boeing's quality control systems. 198 00:10:42,200 --> 00:10:45,800 Speaker 6: He acknowledges his airline was lucky no one was seated 199 00:10:45,880 --> 00:10:46,680 Speaker 6: next to that door. 200 00:10:47,040 --> 00:10:49,560 Speaker 2: There are only seven open seats, and we had a 201 00:10:49,559 --> 00:10:51,679 Speaker 2: guardian angel honestly on that airplane. 202 00:10:51,760 --> 00:10:55,640 Speaker 6: And now more problems for Boeing. United Airlines, which also 203 00:10:55,679 --> 00:10:59,360 Speaker 6: flies to Max nine, says it also found loose bolts, 204 00:10:59,600 --> 00:11:03,280 Speaker 6: and you TUE Quality Concerns is now rethinking its commitment 205 00:11:03,360 --> 00:11:06,839 Speaker 6: to Boeing for future orders. Boeing says workers that at 206 00:11:06,880 --> 00:11:10,720 Speaker 6: seven thirty seven factory will stop work tomorrow to hold 207 00:11:10,720 --> 00:11:14,880 Speaker 6: workshops on quality control. Meanwhile, in Atlanta, one of your 208 00:11:14,920 --> 00:11:18,040 Speaker 6: ghose fires came off. That just rolled off the runway 209 00:11:18,480 --> 00:11:21,040 Speaker 6: behind you. All right, let's tire stop that fell off 210 00:11:21,080 --> 00:11:23,600 Speaker 6: a delta Boeing jet before the old news. 211 00:11:25,720 --> 00:11:29,400 Speaker 2: Here's here's the rest of the story. Mark Lindquist is 212 00:11:29,400 --> 00:11:32,160 Speaker 2: an attorney and he represents a number of passengers that 213 00:11:32,160 --> 00:11:36,480 Speaker 2: were on Alaska Airlines the door blowout plane. And he 214 00:11:36,520 --> 00:11:39,440 Speaker 2: wrote a letter. He said, he got a letter, uh 215 00:11:39,480 --> 00:11:42,320 Speaker 2: from the FBI that says I'm contacting you because we've 216 00:11:42,360 --> 00:11:45,800 Speaker 2: identified you as a possible victim of a crime. The 217 00:11:45,880 --> 00:11:49,400 Speaker 2: FBI does not confirm or deny the existence of an investigation, 218 00:11:49,600 --> 00:11:53,319 Speaker 2: said the Public Affairs Office. But Lindquist showed the letter 219 00:11:53,520 --> 00:11:58,160 Speaker 2: to CNN. So somebody at the FBI thinks it's uh, 220 00:11:59,559 --> 00:12:02,920 Speaker 2: thinks there's a crime that was committed. Now, I don't 221 00:12:02,920 --> 00:12:05,360 Speaker 2: know what the crime would be specifically, I guess so 222 00:12:05,400 --> 00:12:08,640 Speaker 2: maybe some kind of a corporate to negligence. I mean 223 00:12:08,640 --> 00:12:11,480 Speaker 2: that you could have a negligence and incompetence that is 224 00:12:11,520 --> 00:12:17,319 Speaker 2: so severe that you've broken the law. Lind Quist, the 225 00:12:17,400 --> 00:12:20,880 Speaker 2: attorney for the passenger, says, we welcome the DOJ investigation. 226 00:12:21,200 --> 00:12:24,600 Speaker 2: We want accountability, we want answers, we want safer Boeing planes, 227 00:12:24,600 --> 00:12:25,760 Speaker 2: blah blah blah blah. 228 00:12:25,800 --> 00:12:31,720 Speaker 7: Well what about sabotage, as you've said before, Well, I 229 00:12:31,720 --> 00:12:37,599 Speaker 7: suppose yeah, yeah, I was thinking I was thinking sabotage 230 00:12:38,640 --> 00:12:43,240 Speaker 7: in that there were so many planes either landing or 231 00:12:43,280 --> 00:12:46,760 Speaker 7: originating from the same airports that maybe there was something 232 00:12:46,800 --> 00:12:48,400 Speaker 7: going on, because there were a number of them that 233 00:12:48,440 --> 00:12:51,760 Speaker 7: were connected to San Francisco and Portland, and I wondered 234 00:12:51,760 --> 00:12:53,960 Speaker 7: if somebody was up to no good at those airports. 235 00:12:54,840 --> 00:12:57,520 Speaker 2: But you know, as that story indicated, there's a lot 236 00:12:57,559 --> 00:13:02,240 Speaker 2: of loose bolts around now. If you run a factory 237 00:13:02,440 --> 00:13:06,959 Speaker 2: that is so and you've made these decisions to cut costs, right, uh, 238 00:13:07,000 --> 00:13:10,599 Speaker 2: and you run a factory that is so sloppy, so careless, 239 00:13:10,640 --> 00:13:13,680 Speaker 2: so rushed, you know, what's the point it becomes a crime. 240 00:13:14,120 --> 00:13:17,600 Speaker 2: It's not just civil lawsuits from from the victims who've 241 00:13:17,640 --> 00:13:20,280 Speaker 2: been on these planes, but it becomes something that the 242 00:13:20,280 --> 00:13:23,080 Speaker 2: government has to has to shut down and punish and 243 00:13:23,160 --> 00:13:26,800 Speaker 2: maybe put somebody in jail over I don't know. Uh, 244 00:13:26,960 --> 00:13:29,480 Speaker 2: that's that's always like a gray area when it comes to, uh, 245 00:13:29,559 --> 00:13:37,800 Speaker 2: a corporate responsibility. Gavin Newsom, well, this is he he 246 00:13:37,800 --> 00:13:40,400 Speaker 2: announced yesterday that he is well he's calling for a 247 00:13:40,400 --> 00:13:42,600 Speaker 2: ceasefire in Gaza. 248 00:13:43,240 --> 00:13:43,920 Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm sure. 249 00:13:43,920 --> 00:13:47,280 Speaker 2: The Israeli Prime Minister immediately snapped to attention there, Huh. 250 00:13:47,559 --> 00:13:50,560 Speaker 2: Gavin news and wants to see fire boys come on home. 251 00:13:50,640 --> 00:13:51,680 Speaker 1: Okay, War's over. 252 00:13:53,000 --> 00:13:56,439 Speaker 2: Gavin Newsom wants us uh put our arms down here 253 00:13:56,480 --> 00:14:01,920 Speaker 2: and give up. Actually he was. Newsom was kissing Biden's rear. 254 00:14:02,000 --> 00:14:05,760 Speaker 2: End I support President Biden's call for an immediate cease fire. 255 00:14:06,040 --> 00:14:12,280 Speaker 1: Blah blah blah blah. And who asked for his opinion? 256 00:14:13,160 --> 00:14:15,840 Speaker 2: Who thinks only in his deluded mind does he think 257 00:14:16,000 --> 00:14:19,800 Speaker 2: his opinion matters? You think the Israeli legislature, of the 258 00:14:19,840 --> 00:14:24,680 Speaker 2: Israeli Cabinet is weighing Newsom's words today, let me tell 259 00:14:24,680 --> 00:14:28,880 Speaker 2: you an interesting poll came out. They polled fifteen hundred 260 00:14:29,000 --> 00:14:35,440 Speaker 2: and eighty Palestinians the Palestinian Center for Policy and Survey Research. Okay, 261 00:14:35,720 --> 00:14:39,040 Speaker 2: so this is a hometown poll here, and they found 262 00:14:39,120 --> 00:14:46,080 Speaker 2: that fifty nine percent would like Hamas to continue controlling 263 00:14:46,120 --> 00:14:51,280 Speaker 2: the Gaza Strip after the war. Support for the return 264 00:14:51,400 --> 00:14:57,040 Speaker 2: of Hamas in the Gaza Strip reaches sixty three percent 265 00:14:59,560 --> 00:15:06,760 Speaker 2: in some demographics. So, and it's increasing. It's a fourteen 266 00:15:06,800 --> 00:15:10,680 Speaker 2: point increase in the last poll. So when people are going, oh, 267 00:15:10,720 --> 00:15:13,600 Speaker 2: you have a lot of innocent people getting attacked, it's like, 268 00:15:13,720 --> 00:15:17,320 Speaker 2: I don't know if they're so innocent. They want Hamas 269 00:15:17,600 --> 00:15:20,040 Speaker 2: and they support what Hamas was doing in the war. 270 00:15:20,520 --> 00:15:21,280 Speaker 1: That's another thing. 271 00:15:23,160 --> 00:15:27,520 Speaker 2: Big majorities support all the actions that Hamas has taken 272 00:15:27,560 --> 00:15:31,960 Speaker 2: against Israel. So I think the people are just as 273 00:15:33,160 --> 00:15:38,000 Speaker 2: responsible because it gives Hamas justification. It's like, hey, we're 274 00:15:38,000 --> 00:15:40,920 Speaker 2: representing our people here. We're doing what they want us 275 00:15:40,960 --> 00:15:43,760 Speaker 2: to do. They're approving of our attack on Israel, they're 276 00:15:43,800 --> 00:15:46,320 Speaker 2: approving of our war. They want us to stay in 277 00:15:46,400 --> 00:15:49,720 Speaker 2: power after this is all over. So I don't know 278 00:15:49,760 --> 00:15:50,760 Speaker 2: how that makes them innocent. 279 00:15:55,120 --> 00:15:58,040 Speaker 1: I mean it says yeah here it is. 280 00:15:58,080 --> 00:16:03,400 Speaker 2: Palestinian support for Hamas's perform warrants remained stable at seventy percent. 281 00:16:04,440 --> 00:16:11,840 Speaker 2: Seventy percent. I mean that is overwhelming. That is a landslide. 282 00:16:12,120 --> 00:16:14,640 Speaker 2: Seventy percent approval for that. We've never had seventy percent 283 00:16:14,640 --> 00:16:22,520 Speaker 2: approval for anything in this country. And slaughtering Israelis slaughtering 284 00:16:22,560 --> 00:16:25,400 Speaker 2: babies and women and raping them and putting the babies 285 00:16:25,400 --> 00:16:29,840 Speaker 2: in ovens, that gets seventy percent applause in Gadza. 286 00:16:29,920 --> 00:16:30,400 Speaker 1: How about that? 287 00:16:33,680 --> 00:16:35,960 Speaker 2: Next time you see protests in the street or you 288 00:16:36,000 --> 00:16:39,000 Speaker 2: see some public event getting shut down, you see somebody 289 00:16:39,000 --> 00:16:41,359 Speaker 2: screaming and shaking their fist about the innocence. 290 00:16:42,000 --> 00:16:43,760 Speaker 1: Well, I don't know. 291 00:16:45,880 --> 00:16:49,960 Speaker 2: Somebody's breeding all that hatred against the Israelis, and it 292 00:16:50,120 --> 00:16:53,880 Speaker 2: starts with the mothers and fathers who have those children. 293 00:16:53,920 --> 00:16:57,200 Speaker 2: And those children grow up to be soldiers less than 294 00:16:57,200 --> 00:17:00,720 Speaker 2: twenty years later. Somebody taught them that they should go 295 00:17:00,760 --> 00:17:03,960 Speaker 2: in and butcher these rallies. So I don't know exactly 296 00:17:04,000 --> 00:17:06,200 Speaker 2: how many innocents are. I don't think there's that many, 297 00:17:06,880 --> 00:17:09,879 Speaker 2: all right, So we've got more coming up on it. 298 00:17:10,119 --> 00:17:13,879 Speaker 2: It's a sad it's a sad weekend.

Obviously you must vote for him. He also 312 00:17:55,280 --> 00:18:00,000 Speaker 2: got the support of most of Gascone's employees. The Associate 313 00:18:00,000 --> 00:18:05,280 Speaker 2: ciation of Deputy district Attorneys announced their support, and Nathan's 314 00:18:05,280 --> 00:18:07,360 Speaker 2: going to talk about that. Just after three o'clock, two 315 00:18:07,400 --> 00:18:10,119 Speaker 2: runs the moist line coming up. Have you seen the 316 00:18:10,240 --> 00:18:15,240 Speaker 2: video of what was going on at the Texas border 317 00:18:15,600 --> 00:18:19,240 Speaker 2: where you had about a hundred at least one hundred 318 00:18:19,320 --> 00:18:25,600 Speaker 2: illegal aliens storm the razor wire. It was probably several 319 00:18:25,680 --> 00:18:28,240 Speaker 2: hundred of them, and they tore down the razor wire 320 00:18:28,320 --> 00:18:33,720 Speaker 2: and they rushed towards the border wall. And it's a 321 00:18:33,720 --> 00:18:36,280 Speaker 2: good thing that there were two layers of fencing because 322 00:18:36,800 --> 00:18:41,640 Speaker 2: they they destroyed the razor wire, and the whatever law 323 00:18:41,720 --> 00:18:45,840 Speaker 2: enforcement they had were completely overwhelmed. Now, I don't know 324 00:18:45,920 --> 00:18:51,480 Speaker 2: if this was choreographed in some way staged. This was 325 00:18:51,480 --> 00:18:56,080 Speaker 2: a spontaneous mini riot, but it was crazy. And wouldn't 326 00:18:56,119 --> 00:19:02,000 Speaker 2: you know the ridiculous boobs at in the White House 327 00:19:02,640 --> 00:19:06,840 Speaker 2: led by oh that press secretary. Boy, you talk about 328 00:19:07,080 --> 00:19:14,200 Speaker 2: brain damage, caringe Jean Pierre. Okay, the illegal aliens are 329 00:19:14,720 --> 00:19:20,560 Speaker 2: so primed to storm the border because Biden has made 330 00:19:20,600 --> 00:19:24,440 Speaker 2: it clear for three years that wide open, no consequences. 331 00:19:25,200 --> 00:19:28,119 Speaker 2: They got frustrated because Greg Abbott put up some razor 332 00:19:28,160 --> 00:19:29,200 Speaker 2: wire and slow them down. 333 00:19:30,720 --> 00:19:32,440 Speaker 1: They tore through the razor wire. 334 00:19:32,720 --> 00:19:36,639 Speaker 2: They kept running, but they ran smack into a real fence, 335 00:19:37,200 --> 00:19:42,080 Speaker 2: a very tall metal It looked like it's a see 336 00:19:42,080 --> 00:19:45,119 Speaker 2: through fence, like chain link. I guess maybe us something 337 00:19:45,240 --> 00:19:47,720 Speaker 2: looks like chain link. And they couldn't get any farther 338 00:19:47,720 --> 00:19:51,920 Speaker 2: because that fence was too high. You know, I remember, 339 00:19:51,960 --> 00:19:54,439 Speaker 2: for years and years people will be saying, oh, walls 340 00:19:54,480 --> 00:19:58,520 Speaker 2: don't work, activists, idiot politicians, walls don't work. And then 341 00:19:58,520 --> 00:20:02,119 Speaker 2: I'm watching hundreds of guys straight into this fence and they. 342 00:20:02,119 --> 00:20:03,600 Speaker 1: Just start looking up. It's like, how do we get 343 00:20:03,640 --> 00:20:04,200 Speaker 1: over this thing? 344 00:20:04,240 --> 00:20:04,440 Speaker 3: Oh? 345 00:20:04,480 --> 00:20:07,680 Speaker 2: Look at that the wall worked. Wow, what a shock. 346 00:20:07,880 --> 00:20:11,600 Speaker 2: Walls don't work. They'll figure out a way. No, they didn't. 347 00:20:12,680 --> 00:20:13,159 Speaker 1: You can't. 348 00:20:13,920 --> 00:20:16,640 Speaker 2: I mean, I suppose they could start digging a hole. 349 00:20:16,720 --> 00:20:19,359 Speaker 2: Maybe they can get underneath. But we're gonna see that, 350 00:20:20,960 --> 00:20:21,359 Speaker 2: of course. 351 00:20:21,480 --> 00:20:21,720 Speaker 1: Cring. 352 00:20:21,760 --> 00:20:25,840 Speaker 2: Jean Pierre blamed Greg Abbot, the Texas governor. 353 00:20:26,640 --> 00:20:28,640 Speaker 1: Oh, and blame Trump. That's a good one. 354 00:20:29,680 --> 00:20:32,920 Speaker 2: The razor wire, that's Abbot, the National Guard, that's him. 355 00:20:33,320 --> 00:20:41,399 Speaker 2: The Porter patrol agents did their job. I truly believe 356 00:20:41,880 --> 00:20:44,560 Speaker 2: that this is a question for the Republican governor of Texas. 357 00:20:44,560 --> 00:20:48,480 Speaker 2: There's something he should address. The hell is she talking about? 358 00:20:48,480 --> 00:20:48,960 Speaker 1: You know what? 359 00:20:49,200 --> 00:20:55,000 Speaker 2: She stands up there and Sputter's complete nonsense. Because when 360 00:20:55,040 --> 00:20:57,160 Speaker 2: I'm driving in sometimes I listen to the cable news 361 00:20:57,400 --> 00:21:01,080 Speaker 2: channels and they'll carry her her press briefing live, and 362 00:21:01,119 --> 00:21:05,399 Speaker 2: I listen, I'm just examining her entire presentation, and I 363 00:21:05,400 --> 00:21:10,160 Speaker 2: can only conclude that she's insane or just a complete 364 00:21:10,200 --> 00:21:13,720 Speaker 2: idiot with like maybe a sixty IQ. I mean, she 365 00:21:13,880 --> 00:21:18,760 Speaker 2: says things that are nonsensical. They're constantly saying, well, the 366 00:21:18,800 --> 00:21:22,800 Speaker 2: federal government is responsible for the border. Well, yeah, so 367 00:21:23,000 --> 00:21:30,680 Speaker 2: you've created this climate. The Border Patrol chief Jason Owens 368 00:21:30,720 --> 00:21:35,040 Speaker 2: was outraged by it. He said, we have to take 369 00:21:35,040 --> 00:21:37,840 Speaker 2: a look at the asylum laws. Only people that have 370 00:21:37,920 --> 00:21:42,960 Speaker 2: a legitimate claim can claim asylum, and this is something 371 00:21:43,000 --> 00:21:47,040 Speaker 2: that's not addressed. Do you know the vast majority of 372 00:21:47,080 --> 00:21:52,200 Speaker 2: these asylum claims are denied because people are lying. Much 373 00:21:52,240 --> 00:21:53,800 Speaker 2: of the world that shows up at the border and 374 00:21:53,840 --> 00:21:58,560 Speaker 2: claims asylum, they're making it up. They're not oppressed, they're 375 00:21:58,600 --> 00:22:02,199 Speaker 2: not being chased out by a violent government, they're not 376 00:22:02,320 --> 00:22:05,640 Speaker 2: being persecuted because of their religion or their ethnic status 377 00:22:05,680 --> 00:22:09,600 Speaker 2: or whatever the hell crap people make up. They just 378 00:22:09,640 --> 00:22:10,080 Speaker 2: say it. 379 00:22:10,920 --> 00:22:13,080 Speaker 1: And the way our stupid law is written, and it's. 380 00:22:12,920 --> 00:22:14,520 Speaker 2: Like, oh, I guess we're going to let you in 381 00:22:15,520 --> 00:22:17,679 Speaker 2: and then we're going to give you this ticket, and 382 00:22:17,840 --> 00:22:22,080 Speaker 2: this is this. Here is a reservation to appear at 383 00:22:22,080 --> 00:22:24,840 Speaker 2: our our hearing, you know, in the year twenty thirty two. 384 00:22:25,640 --> 00:22:33,359 Speaker 2: So you've come back then, all right, it's the honor system. 385 00:22:33,480 --> 00:22:36,080 Speaker 2: So illegal aliens are poring over two million a year 386 00:22:36,160 --> 00:22:41,240 Speaker 2: if they stop at the border checkpoint. Most of the 387 00:22:41,280 --> 00:22:44,919 Speaker 2: time they're claiming asylum. Nearly all the time, they're lying. 388 00:22:45,440 --> 00:22:47,879 Speaker 2: If they ever actually go for a hearing. Most of 389 00:22:47,920 --> 00:22:50,360 Speaker 2: the time they get denied asylum and are supposed to leave, 390 00:22:50,359 --> 00:22:53,600 Speaker 2: but then they don't. So the trick is, you come 391 00:22:53,640 --> 00:22:57,040 Speaker 2: here and either don't show up and no one's gonna 392 00:22:57,080 --> 00:23:00,840 Speaker 2: come and get you. No one's gonna come. If you 393 00:23:00,840 --> 00:23:04,159 Speaker 2: don't show up at the hearing, no consequence. If you 394 00:23:04,160 --> 00:23:06,040 Speaker 2: do show up for the hearing and they deny you, 395 00:23:06,480 --> 00:23:07,760 Speaker 2: there's no consequence either. 396 00:23:10,119 --> 00:23:11,359 Speaker 1: Because that's not really the point. 397 00:23:11,440 --> 00:23:14,639 Speaker 2: The point is is that the fanatics in the Biden 398 00:23:14,680 --> 00:23:18,240 Speaker 2: administration want to undermine the stability of the United States 399 00:23:18,400 --> 00:23:21,440 Speaker 2: and don't think we're entitled to a border because we're 400 00:23:21,480 --> 00:23:25,639 Speaker 2: an illegitimate nation based on capitalism, racism, you know the 401 00:23:25,680 --> 00:23:29,480 Speaker 2: whole story, right, And they really mean this, they really 402 00:23:29,560 --> 00:23:32,280 Speaker 2: believe this in their bones, and they take advantage of 403 00:23:32,640 --> 00:23:43,440 Speaker 2: Joe being having his cognitive difficulties every day. It's shocking. 404 00:23:43,560 --> 00:23:46,639 Speaker 2: Not a day goes by where I don't see a story, video, 405 00:23:47,040 --> 00:23:50,000 Speaker 2: an interview where I can't believe this is going on, 406 00:23:50,080 --> 00:23:52,320 Speaker 2: and it's added up to millions and millions of people. 407 00:23:53,880 --> 00:23:58,879 Speaker 2: Here's a guy, a smuggler. He's twenty years old. He 408 00:23:59,000 --> 00:24:04,240 Speaker 2: smuggles Mexican through sword pipes. Yes, his name is Kevin Campos. 409 00:24:04,480 --> 00:24:07,840 Speaker 2: He appeared in court, federal court Thursday, and he would 410 00:24:07,920 --> 00:24:12,080 Speaker 2: charge legal aliens six thousand dollars to take him through 411 00:24:12,119 --> 00:24:16,240 Speaker 2: the sewer system that connects Tijuana in San Diego. Wow, 412 00:24:18,080 --> 00:24:20,679 Speaker 2: imagine getting a tour of the Tijuana sewer system and 413 00:24:20,720 --> 00:24:25,920 Speaker 2: you're paying six thousand dollars for it. And they caught him. 414 00:24:25,960 --> 00:24:29,160 Speaker 2: They charged him with smuggling seven people. I'm sure there 415 00:24:29,160 --> 00:24:32,119 Speaker 2: were hundreds, and he's going to get ten years in 416 00:24:32,160 --> 00:24:36,240 Speaker 2: prison for that. Why why are they enforcing the law 417 00:24:36,320 --> 00:24:45,240 Speaker 2: on him. Border patrol agents saw him taking people through 418 00:24:45,280 --> 00:24:49,320 Speaker 2: the pipes and then running away. Now, out of the 419 00:24:49,800 --> 00:24:54,840 Speaker 2: out of all the drug cartel employees, out of all 420 00:24:54,880 --> 00:25:00,000 Speaker 2: the smugglers, all the criminals, the drug runners, the human smugglers, 421 00:25:00,960 --> 00:25:04,720 Speaker 2: they picked this guy smuggling seven people through the sewer pipe. 422 00:25:07,240 --> 00:25:09,760 Speaker 2: And listened to the US attorney Tara McGrath. Well, I'm 423 00:25:09,800 --> 00:25:13,200 Speaker 2: glad they did this, but it's just it's funny. This 424 00:25:13,280 --> 00:25:17,960 Speaker 2: case is another example of transnational smuggling organizations placing profits 425 00:25:18,000 --> 00:25:25,120 Speaker 2: over safety. Yeah, the drug cartels are like that, like Boeing, 426 00:25:25,640 --> 00:25:32,040 Speaker 2: they place profits over safety. See two of the migrants 427 00:25:32,040 --> 00:25:34,119 Speaker 2: said they took the sewer pipes because they were afraid 428 00:25:34,119 --> 00:25:36,520 Speaker 2: of crossing the river. They didn't know how to swim. 429 00:25:37,880 --> 00:25:39,919 Speaker 2: One of them had gotten caught up in the river's 430 00:25:39,960 --> 00:25:43,479 Speaker 2: current and ended up clinging to a tree branch. So 431 00:25:43,560 --> 00:25:48,679 Speaker 2: they thought the sewer system would be safer. Now, normally 432 00:25:48,720 --> 00:25:52,520 Speaker 2: the sewer system has grates to keep people out, but 433 00:25:52,640 --> 00:25:55,000 Speaker 2: the grates are left open when it rains heavily, so 434 00:25:55,040 --> 00:25:58,639 Speaker 2: the water flows uh and doesn't damage the grates. You 435 00:25:58,640 --> 00:26:00,240 Speaker 2: think they could come up with a better system them 436 00:26:00,240 --> 00:26:03,080 Speaker 2: than that, So I guess there were it was the 437 00:26:03,119 --> 00:26:08,199 Speaker 2: grates were open, and uh this Kevin Campos decided, well, 438 00:26:08,280 --> 00:26:12,000 Speaker 2: let's see seven people time. So that's thirty five thousand, No, 439 00:26:12,080 --> 00:26:15,320 Speaker 2: that's forty two thousand dollars he was making for that 440 00:26:15,359 --> 00:26:16,720 Speaker 2: little Tijuana sewer tour. 441 00:26:18,560 --> 00:26:20,919 Speaker 1: I've toured the Paris sewers. I don't remember what I paid. 442 00:26:21,400 --> 00:26:23,000 Speaker 4: I've never done that, but I want to. 443 00:26:23,440 --> 00:26:26,639 Speaker 1: I took the kids. I don't think my wife wanted 444 00:26:26,680 --> 00:26:26,920 Speaker 1: to go. 445 00:26:28,359 --> 00:26:30,880 Speaker 2: You go on a Paris vacation, right, yeah, I know 446 00:26:31,000 --> 00:26:32,240 Speaker 2: this is my idea of romance. 447 00:26:32,280 --> 00:26:33,959 Speaker 1: Hey, how do you want to go see the sewer system? 448 00:26:34,280 --> 00:26:36,439 Speaker 7: That is not romantic. But the next time I go, 449 00:26:36,520 --> 00:26:38,200 Speaker 7: I do want to do that, because I haven't. 450 00:26:38,359 --> 00:26:38,880 Speaker 1: You shouldn't. 451 00:26:38,880 --> 00:26:43,640 Speaker 2: It's stinks down there, though unsurprising, I think pass the kids. 452 00:26:43,720 --> 00:26:45,840 Speaker 2: The kids thought it was funny. They were small then, right. 453 00:26:46,320 --> 00:26:49,320 Speaker 2: And if you stand, you lean up against you know, 454 00:26:49,359 --> 00:26:52,000 Speaker 2: a some metal bars, right, and you can lean over 455 00:26:52,040 --> 00:26:54,239 Speaker 2: and it's it's it's like a river going through and 456 00:26:54,280 --> 00:26:57,200 Speaker 2: you see stuff floating in the water. You actually see poop. 457 00:26:57,359 --> 00:27:01,520 Speaker 4: Oh that's disgusting. You forget it. Well, never mind, I'm 458 00:27:01,560 --> 00:27:02,800 Speaker 4: glad that I talked to you about it. 459 00:27:02,880 --> 00:27:05,520 Speaker 1: Now, I like infrastructure, vacations and poop. 460 00:27:06,240 --> 00:27:08,160 Speaker 2: So they see the poop going by, and I told 461 00:27:08,160 --> 00:27:10,080 Speaker 2: the kids, look at that, that's yours over there, and 462 00:27:10,160 --> 00:27:11,000 Speaker 2: they and they bought it. 463 00:27:12,400 --> 00:27:17,840 Speaker 1: They got all excited. Oh cool, Dad, Wow, I was 464 00:27:17,880 --> 00:27:18,719 Speaker 1: a big hit back then. 465 00:27:18,760 --> 00:27:19,320 Speaker 4: Oh I'm sure. 466 00:27:19,400 --> 00:27:21,240 Speaker 1: Yeah. For about five minutes. 467 00:27:21,960 --> 00:27:26,399 Speaker 5: You're listening to John Cobel on demand from KFI SI. 468 00:27:27,560 --> 00:27:33,159 Speaker 2: Nathan Hakman running for district Attorney against George Gascone. Okay, 469 00:27:33,200 --> 00:27:37,520 Speaker 2: this is the second place finisher in the primary, but 470 00:27:38,000 --> 00:27:43,080 Speaker 2: seventy five percent of the public voted against Gascon, so 471 00:27:43,960 --> 00:27:47,800 Speaker 2: he's he's the guy. Everybody's got to get behind him. 472 00:27:48,119 --> 00:27:53,359 Speaker 2: If your favorite candidate didn't win, suck it up, heal, 473 00:27:54,200 --> 00:27:59,080 Speaker 2: and let's get behind Nathan Hawkman against Gascon because Hawkman's 474 00:27:59,080 --> 00:28:01,680 Speaker 2: the real deal. He's got it, ton of experience, and 475 00:28:01,800 --> 00:28:04,959 Speaker 2: we'll talk to him coming up. Because if this means anything, 476 00:28:05,080 --> 00:28:10,840 Speaker 2: the Association of Deputy District Attorneys has endorsed Nathan Hackman. 477 00:28:11,720 --> 00:28:19,600 Speaker 2: These are all of Gascon's prosecutors, nearly all of Gascone's prosecutors. 478 00:28:19,640 --> 00:28:24,200 Speaker 2: That he's the lord over. They want Nathan Hakman over 479 00:28:24,320 --> 00:28:29,280 Speaker 2: George Gascon. All right, Now, this is sad In and 480 00:28:29,320 --> 00:28:35,359 Speaker 2: Out Burger, it's going to close. This is the first 481 00:28:35,400 --> 00:28:38,959 Speaker 2: time they've had a permanent closure in Oakland. Don't want 482 00:28:39,000 --> 00:28:44,200 Speaker 2: to scare people, but because Oakland's crime situation is so 483 00:28:44,400 --> 00:28:49,560 Speaker 2: ridiculous and so out of control, that family that runs 484 00:28:49,560 --> 00:28:52,160 Speaker 2: In and Out says, yeah, we're going to close permanently. 485 00:28:55,880 --> 00:29:00,920 Speaker 2: And they've never done this before. Since the Snyder family 486 00:29:01,360 --> 00:29:07,000 Speaker 2: split with their original partner, Charles Nodden. There were six 487 00:29:07,080 --> 00:29:12,000 Speaker 2: restaurants back in nineteen fifty two, and the Snyders kept 488 00:29:12,040 --> 00:29:16,640 Speaker 2: three and the three that Nodden got were renamed and 489 00:29:16,680 --> 00:29:21,040 Speaker 2: eventually closed, so they don't count. So anything that's called 490 00:29:21,080 --> 00:29:23,320 Speaker 2: In and Out and anything that the Snyder family has 491 00:29:23,360 --> 00:29:30,120 Speaker 2: owned has never had a permanent closure. And this is 492 00:29:30,160 --> 00:29:34,080 Speaker 2: all from a book written by the Snyder granddaughter, Lindsay Snyder. 493 00:29:35,440 --> 00:29:37,600 Speaker 2: She's the current owner and president.

Rebecca Grossman, 532 00:31:38,560 --> 00:31:42,720 Speaker 2: she is allowed to keep making phone calls, which I 533 00:31:42,720 --> 00:31:45,040 Speaker 2: don't really understand. The judge gave her a break because 534 00:31:45,080 --> 00:31:49,200 Speaker 2: she's been making phone calls and she's been plotting to 535 00:31:49,400 --> 00:31:54,120 Speaker 2: distribute evidence that's supposed to be sealed, some videos that 536 00:31:55,160 --> 00:32:00,480 Speaker 2: run bodycam videos, her daughter Alexis, and her husband and Peter. 537 00:32:02,280 --> 00:32:04,640 Speaker 2: She had a number of phone calls and she told 538 00:32:04,680 --> 00:32:06,920 Speaker 2: her daughter she wants to unblock the videos and put 539 00:32:06,960 --> 00:32:11,200 Speaker 2: everything out.

You know, 547 00:32:30,560 --> 00:32:34,880 Speaker 2: you live in much more isolation. But the judge said 548 00:32:35,480 --> 00:32:38,520 Speaker 2: she must have been naive. He chalked it up to 549 00:32:38,520 --> 00:32:42,360 Speaker 2: her naivete, which I doubt. She's sixty years old, she's 550 00:32:42,440 --> 00:32:47,280 Speaker 2: very wealthy. She's a manipulator. She's a con artist, is 551 00:32:47,320 --> 00:32:52,000 Speaker 2: what she is. And she's like playing this, playing all 552 00:32:52,040 --> 00:32:55,920 Speaker 2: these emotional chords that she's suffering so much, and you 553 00:32:55,960 --> 00:32:57,680 Speaker 2: get caught up in that and you forget that, Hey, 554 00:32:57,720 --> 00:33:01,800 Speaker 2: you ran over two little kids. Two little kids, they 555 00:33:01,920 --> 00:33:05,720 Speaker 2: banged off your car and then you took off and 556 00:33:05,800 --> 00:33:06,600 Speaker 2: left them for dead. 557 00:33:07,560 --> 00:33:08,240 Speaker 1: So enough of this. 558 00:33:10,480 --> 00:33:13,280 Speaker 2: And you know what's funny is how quickly the media 559 00:33:13,320 --> 00:33:16,960 Speaker 2: coverage changes and it's about her being upset, and her 560 00:33:17,000 --> 00:33:19,480 Speaker 2: and the daughter crying on the phone, and her pleading 561 00:33:19,480 --> 00:33:21,960 Speaker 2: with the husband and the husband trying to help her, 562 00:33:22,000 --> 00:33:25,480 Speaker 2: and everything is about them. It's like, well, stop, the 563 00:33:25,520 --> 00:33:28,959 Speaker 2: two kids are still dead. It doesn't she should be upset. 564 00:33:29,080 --> 00:33:31,240 Speaker 2: She's going to get what amounts to a life sentence. 565 00:33:31,920 --> 00:33:34,800 Speaker 2: She's going to be in because she's already sixty so 566 00:33:34,800 --> 00:33:36,560 Speaker 2: she's going to spend the rest of her life in prison, 567 00:33:36,600 --> 00:33:41,120 Speaker 2: and she should. So she's upset, she's crying. She thinks 568 00:33:41,160 --> 00:33:43,440 Speaker 2: the jury screwter. Of course she thinks the jury screwter. 569 00:33:44,640 --> 00:33:48,040 Speaker 2: Doesn't every guilty person think the jury screwed? You know 570 00:33:48,080 --> 00:33:51,640 Speaker 2: how many people in prison who entered innocent pleas who 571 00:33:51,680 --> 00:33:54,239 Speaker 2: had defense attorneys claiming they were innocent or they were 572 00:33:54,280 --> 00:33:58,360 Speaker 2: framed or this and that. And there's tens of thousands 573 00:33:58,360 --> 00:34:01,280 Speaker 2: of prisoners all over California. They all had the same story. 574 00:34:02,000 --> 00:34:05,440 Speaker 2: There aren't that many volunteer to go to prison. Usually 575 00:34:05,480 --> 00:34:08,479 Speaker 2: you have to force them into prison, and maybe they'll 576 00:34:08,480 --> 00:34:11,479 Speaker 2: plead guilty only because they're afraid of what the real 577 00:34:11,560 --> 00:34:15,160 Speaker 2: sentence might be. And I'm just like fed up with 578 00:34:15,200 --> 00:34:16,879 Speaker 2: the Rebecca Grossman coverage. 579 00:34:17,200 --> 00:34:18,000 Speaker 1: Not already. 580 00:34:18,440 --> 00:34:23,000 Speaker 2: I No, she's not naive. She is a manipulator and 581 00:34:23,239 --> 00:34:27,040 Speaker 2: that's what she's doing. Nothing else to it?
