Let's go 24 00:01:27,800 --> 00:01:30,440 Speaker 2: to Blake Trolley KFI News to see what the latest is. 25 00:01:30,480 --> 00:01:32,800 Speaker 2: It's pulling one thread at a time together here. 26 00:01:33,040 --> 00:01:35,480 Speaker 3: Yeah, john Well, this is an absolutely tragic story and 27 00:01:35,480 --> 00:01:38,160 Speaker 3: even though one of the children survived this brutal series 28 00:01:38,200 --> 00:01:40,520 Speaker 3: of events, this is likely going to impact her for 29 00:01:40,520 --> 00:01:42,680 Speaker 3: the rest of her life. So on Monday we heard 30 00:01:42,680 --> 00:01:45,199 Speaker 3: that a man killed in Woodland Hills, a baby killed 31 00:01:45,200 --> 00:01:47,080 Speaker 3: on the four oh five, and a woman killed in 32 00:01:47,120 --> 00:01:50,600 Speaker 3: a crash, and Redondo Beach were all connected, which really 33 00:01:50,680 --> 00:01:53,120 Speaker 3: raised a lot of questions, asked how all these things 34 00:01:53,160 --> 00:01:56,440 Speaker 3: could possibly be related given that they were so far apart. Well, 35 00:01:56,480 --> 00:01:59,680 Speaker 3: the laped is saying that this is a murder suicide 36 00:02:00,400 --> 00:02:03,480 Speaker 3: a couple. The series of events begins at a high 37 00:02:03,560 --> 00:02:06,280 Speaker 3: end apartment building in Woodland Hills where thirty four year 38 00:02:06,280 --> 00:02:10,840 Speaker 3: old Danielle Johnson allegedly fatally stabbed her living boyfriend, Jalen 39 00:02:10,919 --> 00:02:14,680 Speaker 3: Chanley during an argument. This is about three forty am. 40 00:02:14,960 --> 00:02:18,000 Speaker 3: She then loaded her daughter and eight month old baby 41 00:02:18,040 --> 00:02:21,560 Speaker 3: into a Porsche SUV busted through the garage of that 42 00:02:21,600 --> 00:02:25,080 Speaker 3: apartment building and then took off. Police say, well, she 43 00:02:25,160 --> 00:02:27,280 Speaker 3: was on the four h five near Howard Hughes and 44 00:02:27,320 --> 00:02:30,080 Speaker 3: to give you a timeline, this is about an hour later, 45 00:02:30,520 --> 00:02:32,760 Speaker 3: she pushed her kids out of the car. Apparently she 46 00:02:32,840 --> 00:02:35,680 Speaker 3: told them to get out, this is what police are saying, 47 00:02:35,760 --> 00:02:38,520 Speaker 3: and when they wouldn't, she pushed her nine year old 48 00:02:38,560 --> 00:02:42,400 Speaker 3: daughter out of the car, who was holding her infant sibling. Well, 49 00:02:42,400 --> 00:02:45,200 Speaker 3: that nine year old lost grip of her sibling who 50 00:02:45,240 --> 00:02:48,519 Speaker 3: is which is an infant child who was then fatally 51 00:02:48,560 --> 00:02:52,840 Speaker 3: struck by a car. Johnson ultimately ends up in Redondo Beach, 52 00:02:53,040 --> 00:02:55,720 Speaker 3: where it appears she just intentionally decides to end her 53 00:02:55,760 --> 00:02:58,840 Speaker 3: life and torpedoes into a tree. Police say she was 54 00:02:58,880 --> 00:03:01,360 Speaker 3: going more than one hundred minless per hour when she 55 00:03:01,560 --> 00:03:03,919 Speaker 3: slammed into that tree. And again, this is being called 56 00:03:03,919 --> 00:03:07,240 Speaker 3: a murder suicide. Now, all of this john happened before 57 00:03:07,320 --> 00:03:12,360 Speaker 3: police were even alerted to the initial murder. Neighbors say 58 00:03:12,440 --> 00:03:16,239 Speaker 3: that they noticed the door was open to this couple's 59 00:03:16,280 --> 00:03:19,399 Speaker 3: apartment and it sounds like it was left a bloody mess. 60 00:03:19,440 --> 00:03:21,639 Speaker 3: It sounds like there was blood all over the place 61 00:03:21,680 --> 00:03:25,800 Speaker 3: and blood leading to the elevator. One of these neighbors. 62 00:03:25,800 --> 00:03:28,200 Speaker 3: She panicked. She called her father, so he showed up 63 00:03:28,480 --> 00:03:33,280 Speaker 3: and he found Chany face down. So this really left 64 00:03:33,280 --> 00:03:36,560 Speaker 3: the neighbors rattled. I imagine this nine year old's life 65 00:03:36,600 --> 00:03:38,480 Speaker 3: is going to be forever changed. And same with that, 66 00:03:38,520 --> 00:03:40,480 Speaker 3: you know the person on the four h five who 67 00:03:40,560 --> 00:03:41,680 Speaker 3: ran over that infant? 68 00:03:42,600 --> 00:03:48,320 Speaker 2: Oh does the driver on the four or five know 69 00:03:48,520 --> 00:03:49,640 Speaker 2: they ran over the infant? 70 00:03:50,480 --> 00:03:51,440 Speaker 1: That's a really good question. 71 00:03:51,480 --> 00:03:55,040 Speaker 3: We'll have to work to figure out exactly what happened there. 72 00:03:55,440 --> 00:03:57,680 Speaker 3: I mean, I know when all of this did unfold, 73 00:03:57,920 --> 00:04:00,520 Speaker 3: you know the drivers did. I believe they did pull over, 74 00:04:00,600 --> 00:04:02,400 Speaker 3: So I would assume that, yes, they know what happened. 75 00:04:02,400 --> 00:04:04,920 Speaker 2: I mean, yesterday there was a slightly different set of 76 00:04:05,800 --> 00:04:08,280 Speaker 2: details about the story. So these two were not married, 77 00:04:08,640 --> 00:04:12,000 Speaker 2: but they were living together. And was the younger kid 78 00:04:12,040 --> 00:04:16,279 Speaker 2: the baby their child and then the nine year old 79 00:04:17,120 --> 00:04:19,120 Speaker 2: the mother's child from another relationship. 80 00:04:19,560 --> 00:04:22,520 Speaker 3: Yeah, so we're working to confirm exactly whose children they were. 81 00:04:22,560 --> 00:04:25,159 Speaker 3: They both belonged to Daniel Johnson. This is the woman 82 00:04:25,200 --> 00:04:27,240 Speaker 3: who carried out this series of events. There are some 83 00:04:27,360 --> 00:04:29,760 Speaker 3: questions that are still pending as to whether or not 84 00:04:29,800 --> 00:04:33,240 Speaker 3: the baby was the couple's child. The nine year old 85 00:04:33,279 --> 00:04:36,839 Speaker 3: was for sure solely Daniel Johnson's child. But when it 86 00:04:36,880 --> 00:04:39,360 Speaker 3: comes to that infant, there are still some questions that 87 00:04:39,839 --> 00:04:42,000 Speaker 3: reporters are trying to get answered. So what was the 88 00:04:42,040 --> 00:04:44,880 Speaker 3: relationship between Chanley and the infant? 89 00:04:46,120 --> 00:04:48,719 Speaker 2: I mean, I can't imagine what triggered this surge of 90 00:04:48,760 --> 00:04:53,280 Speaker 2: anger because I saw reports that when Johnson got into 91 00:04:53,279 --> 00:04:56,400 Speaker 2: the car with the kids, she rammed right through the 92 00:04:56,440 --> 00:04:59,120 Speaker 2: security gate, a metal security gate. I saw a photo 93 00:04:59,160 --> 00:05:03,520 Speaker 2: of it today, and that was not an easy gate 94 00:05:03,560 --> 00:05:05,960 Speaker 2: to ram through, but she blew it right off its hinge. 95 00:05:06,520 --> 00:05:08,160 Speaker 3: Yeah, it was all caught on video. This is a 96 00:05:08,240 --> 00:05:10,880 Speaker 3: high end apartment building. They don't just put flimsy gates 97 00:05:10,960 --> 00:05:14,280 Speaker 3: on those parking structures. This was a very secure gate. 98 00:05:14,480 --> 00:05:17,119 Speaker 3: And again she gets into her poor che suv, loads 99 00:05:17,120 --> 00:05:20,400 Speaker 3: the kids up, and speed smashes right through that gate. 100 00:05:20,440 --> 00:05:22,920 Speaker 3: All of that caught on video. So yeah, there's still 101 00:05:22,960 --> 00:05:24,440 Speaker 3: a lot of questions. I mean, I think one of 102 00:05:24,440 --> 00:05:27,640 Speaker 3: the biggest questions investigators are trying to answer, a question 103 00:05:27,680 --> 00:05:30,479 Speaker 3: that we all have right now, is what started this argument. 104 00:05:30,760 --> 00:05:33,800 Speaker 3: When you listen to the timeline, that's very abnormal in itself, right, 105 00:05:33,839 --> 00:05:37,200 Speaker 3: They were arguing at three forty in the morning. I mean, 106 00:05:37,240 --> 00:05:39,360 Speaker 3: most people aren't even awake at that time. 107 00:05:39,800 --> 00:05:42,600 Speaker 2: Now, I mean the nine year old, I guess it 108 00:05:42,680 --> 00:05:46,640 Speaker 2: is the only witness. Whenever she woke up, she obviously 109 00:05:46,800 --> 00:05:51,480 Speaker 2: was witnessed to the getaway by mom. And then and then, 110 00:05:51,640 --> 00:05:56,039 Speaker 2: you know it's really heartbreaking, was when mom threw the 111 00:05:56,080 --> 00:05:58,080 Speaker 2: two girls out of the car. The nine year old 112 00:05:58,160 --> 00:06:02,640 Speaker 2: was holding the bay and I guess dropped her or 113 00:06:02,880 --> 00:06:05,040 Speaker 2: the baby got away from her. And then the baby 114 00:06:05,040 --> 00:06:07,320 Speaker 2: gets hit by a car. I mean, that is that 115 00:06:07,440 --> 00:06:09,720 Speaker 2: is the worst thing that that poor child's going to 116 00:06:09,800 --> 00:06:10,840 Speaker 2: have to carry around with her. 117 00:06:11,360 --> 00:06:14,039 Speaker 3: Absolutely, And you know what, John Nighbors are saying that 118 00:06:14,560 --> 00:06:17,320 Speaker 3: the nine year old did witness the murder of Jayleen 119 00:06:17,400 --> 00:06:20,360 Speaker 3: Chanley as well, So she did witness that fatal stabbing. 120 00:06:20,720 --> 00:06:23,680 Speaker 3: And when you really read about the you know, just 121 00:06:23,720 --> 00:06:26,000 Speaker 3: the condition in which the apartment was left, I mean, 122 00:06:26,000 --> 00:06:28,800 Speaker 3: neighbors they decided to look into this because again the 123 00:06:28,839 --> 00:06:31,840 Speaker 3: door was open. Apparently Chanley was laying face down, people 124 00:06:31,839 --> 00:06:34,920 Speaker 3: could see his feet sticking out and there was blood everywhere, 125 00:06:34,960 --> 00:06:38,000 Speaker 3: blood leading to the elevator. So this sounds like a 126 00:06:38,000 --> 00:06:41,520 Speaker 3: pretty gruesome murder that this nine year old was witnessed to. 127 00:06:42,120 --> 00:06:43,040 Speaker 1: I can't. 128 00:06:43,360 --> 00:06:44,800 Speaker 2: I mean, it's one of the worst things I've ever 129 00:06:44,839 --> 00:06:47,159 Speaker 2: heard of that a little child would have to witness. 130 00:06:48,360 --> 00:06:49,799 Speaker 1: And mother's gone. 131 00:06:51,560 --> 00:06:55,479 Speaker 2: I guess that's not her dad who was murdered, but 132 00:06:55,560 --> 00:06:59,000 Speaker 2: she saw him get killed by mom and then dropping 133 00:06:59,240 --> 00:07:02,840 Speaker 2: her sister or half sister whatever into the road and 134 00:07:02,880 --> 00:07:06,760 Speaker 2: gets run over. That's just that's just unspeakable, all right, Blake, 135 00:07:06,800 --> 00:07:09,960 Speaker 2: thanks very much for all that. All right, thanks John Blake. 136 00:07:10,040 --> 00:07:10,360 Speaker 1: Trolly. 137 00:07:11,320 --> 00:07:15,880 Speaker 2: The neighbors, Jody and Richard Bergland, well, let's see, they're 138 00:07:15,880 --> 00:07:19,960 Speaker 2: not neighbors, but their daughter is a neighbor. She's twenty six, 139 00:07:20,200 --> 00:07:22,520 Speaker 2: not named in the story, and she woke up at 140 00:07:22,520 --> 00:07:24,560 Speaker 2: three point forty in the morning and she heard a 141 00:07:24,680 --> 00:07:27,280 Speaker 2: child and a woman screaming in the apartment next door. 142 00:07:27,800 --> 00:07:30,720 Speaker 2: When she left for work hours later, she saw the 143 00:07:30,760 --> 00:07:34,400 Speaker 2: neighbor's apartment door wide open, and like Blake said, blood 144 00:07:34,400 --> 00:07:36,560 Speaker 2: on the floor, blood streaked in the elevator. 145 00:07:37,120 --> 00:07:39,760 Speaker 1: She didn't even go into the apartment. She took the. 146 00:07:39,680 --> 00:07:43,240 Speaker 2: Elevator downstairs and called her parents and told them to 147 00:07:43,280 --> 00:07:48,200 Speaker 2: go check. Uh And he found the father, Richard Bergland, 148 00:07:48,240 --> 00:07:52,680 Speaker 2: found legs sticking out from the kitchen and blood everywhere. 149 00:07:52,880 --> 00:07:56,560 Speaker 2: Apartment was in disarray, everything was knocked over. He had 150 00:07:56,600 --> 00:07:58,920 Speaker 2: to step over puddles of blood to walk into the 151 00:07:59,000 --> 00:08:02,760 Speaker 2: kitchen and found his neighbor face down, wearing only socks 152 00:08:02,760 --> 00:08:07,520 Speaker 2: and underwear, and he was dead. So I guess the 153 00:08:07,560 --> 00:08:13,320 Speaker 2: Bergerlan family lived in the same complex there as neighbors. 154 00:08:14,000 --> 00:08:20,960 Speaker 2: The guy who got killed, his name is Jayleen Alan 155 00:08:21,120 --> 00:08:25,120 Speaker 2: Cheney and he was a technician in the thirty first 156 00:08:25,200 --> 00:08:28,680 Speaker 2: Munition Squadron stationed in Italy. He was in the Air 157 00:08:28,720 --> 00:08:35,440 Speaker 2: Force as recently as twenty twenty. So that's the latest 158 00:08:35,480 --> 00:08:37,199 Speaker 2: details coming out very slowly. 159 00:08:37,440 --> 00:08:38,080 Speaker 1: We come back. 160 00:08:41,640 --> 00:08:44,240 Speaker 2: The story came out late in our show yesterday and 161 00:08:45,000 --> 00:08:48,880 Speaker 2: just basically went through the headlines. Now a day later, 162 00:08:49,679 --> 00:08:53,240 Speaker 2: there's a lot more detail from various news sources, and 163 00:08:53,280 --> 00:08:58,360 Speaker 2: it's really sinking in and it's really worse that I 164 00:08:58,440 --> 00:09:02,559 Speaker 2: ever imagined. As as negative and cynical as I am 165 00:09:02,920 --> 00:09:07,440 Speaker 2: about the California government and the incompetence and boobery of 166 00:09:07,480 --> 00:09:11,120 Speaker 2: Gavin Newsom. This is one of the most atrocious stories 167 00:09:11,160 --> 00:09:15,880 Speaker 2: of governments governance I've ever heard my life. One line 168 00:09:15,920 --> 00:09:19,960 Speaker 2: to describe it, twenty four billion dollars has been spent 169 00:09:20,040 --> 00:09:23,920 Speaker 2: on homelessness, and they don't know where it all went, 170 00:09:24,520 --> 00:09:27,480 Speaker 2: and they don't know if any of it worked and 171 00:09:27,559 --> 00:09:28,319 Speaker 2: did any good. 172 00:09:29,040 --> 00:09:30,160 Speaker 1: They don't have any idea. 173 00:09:30,200 --> 00:09:35,079 Speaker 2: It's a state audit that found that the government's oversight 174 00:09:35,200 --> 00:09:39,440 Speaker 2: is a complete zero. It's non existence. It's newsome runs 175 00:09:39,480 --> 00:09:44,920 Speaker 2: like a non government. They just blew the money. It's 176 00:09:45,000 --> 00:09:48,839 Speaker 2: hard to believe. Simultaneously, there's audits in Los Angeles and 177 00:09:49,000 --> 00:09:52,120 Speaker 2: the suspicion is the same things happening in LA and 178 00:09:52,200 --> 00:09:55,600 Speaker 2: it's San Diego and in San Jose, all the biggest 179 00:09:55,600 --> 00:09:59,400 Speaker 2: cities in the state have spent billions and billions of dollars, 180 00:10:00,040 --> 00:10:02,720 Speaker 2: and not only has it done no good, they never 181 00:10:02,920 --> 00:10:06,160 Speaker 2: even look to say it does no if it does 182 00:10:06,200 --> 00:10:08,400 Speaker 2: any good, they're not even interested. 183 00:10:08,920 --> 00:10:09,480 Speaker 1: They don't care. 184 00:10:10,360 --> 00:10:15,120 Speaker 2: This is a huge, multi billion dollar racket, a scam. 185 00:10:15,720 --> 00:10:17,480 Speaker 1: We'll tell you more about it when we come back. 186 00:10:18,440 --> 00:10:22,800 Speaker 4: You're listening to John Cobelt on demand from KFI AM 187 00:10:22,800 --> 00:10:23,360 Speaker 4: six forty. 188 00:10:25,120 --> 00:10:31,800 Speaker 2: This it's so stunning, Well, you know it's it's not stunning. 189 00:10:31,880 --> 00:10:36,160 Speaker 1: This is what I always suspected. It it's worse than I. 190 00:10:36,120 --> 00:10:39,520 Speaker 2: Suspected, but it's you know, this, this is what I 191 00:10:39,559 --> 00:10:40,840 Speaker 2: thought to some extent. 192 00:10:40,640 --> 00:10:43,079 Speaker 1: Was going on. So in that way. 193 00:10:43,120 --> 00:10:46,520 Speaker 2: It's not stunning, but that it actually is happening this 194 00:10:46,559 --> 00:10:48,360 Speaker 2: way for real. 195 00:10:48,600 --> 00:10:50,679 Speaker 1: We have proof. Now we have an admission. 196 00:10:51,240 --> 00:10:53,760 Speaker 2: When it finally sinks in, it just makes you sit 197 00:10:53,840 --> 00:10:59,160 Speaker 2: there and go, oh, my god, is that possible. And 198 00:10:59,400 --> 00:11:03,680 Speaker 2: there is a state auditor by the name of Grant Parks, 199 00:11:03,840 --> 00:11:08,439 Speaker 2: California State Auditor, and he looked at all the state 200 00:11:08,600 --> 00:11:15,199 Speaker 2: homeless programs. The state has Newsome. This is Newsome. I 201 00:11:15,320 --> 00:11:19,720 Speaker 2: spent twenty four billion dollars in the last five years, 202 00:11:20,320 --> 00:11:25,560 Speaker 2: so this is all Newsome. Twenty four billion dollars. They 203 00:11:25,679 --> 00:11:30,959 Speaker 2: have very little, almost no accounting for where the money 204 00:11:31,000 --> 00:11:35,120 Speaker 2: went and whether any of it was effective. And when 205 00:11:35,200 --> 00:11:39,040 Speaker 2: I mean they have very little, I mean very little 206 00:11:39,760 --> 00:11:42,840 Speaker 2: in a lot of cases, a lot of programs nothing. 207 00:11:44,280 --> 00:11:48,839 Speaker 2: They have no information at all, no information as to 208 00:11:48,880 --> 00:11:53,679 Speaker 2: whether this worked or not. There is an agency you 209 00:11:53,800 --> 00:12:00,000 Speaker 2: probably never heard of it, the California Interagency Council on Homelessness. 210 00:12:00,960 --> 00:12:03,920 Speaker 2: Now see if you can follow this. This is a 211 00:12:04,640 --> 00:12:06,360 Speaker 2: Newsome idea. 212 00:12:08,840 --> 00:12:13,960 Speaker 5: It's an agency that is supposed to oversee all the 213 00:12:14,000 --> 00:12:18,640 Speaker 5: smaller agencies, which in turns which in turn oversees all 214 00:12:18,720 --> 00:12:22,600 Speaker 5: the nonprofits that ultimately get the money and spend it. 215 00:12:23,720 --> 00:12:28,720 Speaker 2: Okay, So it's a super agency. And according to the audit, 216 00:12:30,280 --> 00:12:37,440 Speaker 2: this Interagency Council on Homelessness only in five years collected 217 00:12:37,480 --> 00:12:41,120 Speaker 2: information about the costs and the outcomes of the state programs. 218 00:12:41,440 --> 00:12:44,880 Speaker 2: They only did it once once in five years. Did 219 00:12:44,960 --> 00:12:48,240 Speaker 2: they say, Hey, how much is this costing and where's 220 00:12:48,240 --> 00:12:53,720 Speaker 2: it going? Excuse me a second, I got some allergies 221 00:12:53,720 --> 00:12:55,679 Speaker 2: acting up, so I'm going to try not to cough 222 00:12:55,720 --> 00:12:59,400 Speaker 2: and gaggle over you, all right, So they collected information once. 223 00:13:01,280 --> 00:13:03,520 Speaker 2: So as a result, according to the. 224 00:13:03,480 --> 00:13:04,520 Speaker 1: Audit, the. 225 00:13:06,440 --> 00:13:09,880 Speaker 2: Uh get this name right of this day Interagency Council 226 00:13:09,960 --> 00:13:15,080 Speaker 2: and Homelessness cannot aggregate or report the information to inform 227 00:13:15,200 --> 00:13:19,360 Speaker 2: decision makers. So what they're saying is the auditor is saying, 228 00:13:19,440 --> 00:13:24,000 Speaker 2: is like this superagency has no idea what's going on, 229 00:13:24,320 --> 00:13:28,480 Speaker 2: so they can't tell the governor or the legislature anything useful. 230 00:13:31,160 --> 00:13:37,360 Speaker 2: If the California Interagency Council and Homelessness collects this information, 231 00:13:38,040 --> 00:13:41,559 Speaker 2: it could present the costs and outcomes of each program 232 00:13:43,000 --> 00:13:46,199 Speaker 2: and then allow decision makers and the public to understand 233 00:13:46,200 --> 00:13:48,439 Speaker 2: the cost per outcome and compare programs. 234 00:13:50,040 --> 00:13:54,880 Speaker 1: But there is no information. The money is simply sent 235 00:13:55,000 --> 00:13:55,360 Speaker 1: to the. 236 00:13:55,400 --> 00:14:02,560 Speaker 2: Various state agencies which passes it down these criminal homeless 237 00:14:02,600 --> 00:14:07,480 Speaker 2: nonprofit operations. And I need criminal because everybody in this 238 00:14:07,640 --> 00:14:10,560 Speaker 2: chain knows what's going on. They know no one's keeping 239 00:14:10,559 --> 00:14:12,720 Speaker 2: track of the money. They know none of the money 240 00:14:12,760 --> 00:14:15,160 Speaker 2: is going to anything good. In fact, I'm sure a 241 00:14:15,200 --> 00:14:17,360 Speaker 2: lot of the money is just being siphoned off and stolen. 242 00:14:18,200 --> 00:14:20,640 Speaker 1: It's got to be because. 243 00:14:20,600 --> 00:14:23,400 Speaker 2: If you know the state's not tracking, why would you 244 00:14:23,640 --> 00:14:25,240 Speaker 2: bother spending money on the homelessness. 245 00:14:25,640 --> 00:14:26,760 Speaker 1: Who the hell wants to do that? 246 00:14:28,640 --> 00:14:31,320 Speaker 2: Do you really want to spend your day wrangling homeless 247 00:14:31,320 --> 00:14:34,200 Speaker 2: people and trying to get them into shelters and getting 248 00:14:34,240 --> 00:14:37,640 Speaker 2: them into apartments and drug addiction and feeding. Of course 249 00:14:37,680 --> 00:14:40,200 Speaker 2: you don't. That's a very unpleasant child. That's why I 250 00:14:40,240 --> 00:14:43,400 Speaker 2: was always suspect about how there's all these agencies with 251 00:14:43,480 --> 00:14:44,400 Speaker 2: all these employees. 252 00:14:44,400 --> 00:14:46,520 Speaker 1: It's like there's not that many good people in the world. 253 00:14:47,320 --> 00:14:48,960 Speaker 1: There just isn't. 254 00:14:49,680 --> 00:14:53,920 Speaker 2: But there's that many scam artists and crooks and grifters 255 00:14:53,920 --> 00:14:54,480 Speaker 2: in the world. 256 00:14:56,600 --> 00:14:56,800 Speaker 1: You know. 257 00:14:56,840 --> 00:15:00,280 Speaker 2: It's like when we were giving away unemployment checks during 258 00:15:00,920 --> 00:15:06,160 Speaker 2: the lockdown without checking doing background checks, there were thirty 259 00:15:06,200 --> 00:15:08,760 Speaker 2: billion dollars worth of criminals that showed up around the 260 00:15:08,800 --> 00:15:12,520 Speaker 2: world to take the money from California, and here this 261 00:15:12,600 --> 00:15:18,000 Speaker 2: is twenty four billion. Twenty four billion in state money. 262 00:15:19,360 --> 00:15:21,640 Speaker 2: By the way, we have a third of the homeless 263 00:15:21,640 --> 00:15:24,200 Speaker 2: people in the nation. We have one hundred and eighty 264 00:15:24,240 --> 00:15:27,800 Speaker 2: three thousand homeless people in the nation. We are twelve 265 00:15:27,840 --> 00:15:31,000 Speaker 2: percent of the country's population at a third of a 266 00:15:31,000 --> 00:15:35,800 Speaker 2: homeless The homelessness is up fifty three percent in the 267 00:15:35,840 --> 00:15:39,280 Speaker 2: last ten years, up thirty percent in the last five. 268 00:15:40,920 --> 00:15:44,240 Speaker 2: You know how much we spend annually on each homeless 269 00:15:44,240 --> 00:15:49,360 Speaker 2: person with all these criminal crooked programs. We spend thirty 270 00:15:49,440 --> 00:15:53,720 Speaker 2: thousand dollars a year per homeless person, and that doesn't 271 00:15:53,760 --> 00:15:59,760 Speaker 2: include local programs. Figure in LA they're spending about another 272 00:15:59,760 --> 00:16:06,640 Speaker 2: twenty thousand per person, So that's thirty thousand on top 273 00:16:06,680 --> 00:16:10,760 Speaker 2: of twenty thousand. We might be spending fifty thousand dollars 274 00:16:10,840 --> 00:16:18,240 Speaker 2: a year on each homeless person, except who the hell knows. Again, 275 00:16:18,280 --> 00:16:21,640 Speaker 2: they don't track the money. Nobody knows how it's spent, 276 00:16:22,120 --> 00:16:25,720 Speaker 2: nobody knows if it does any good or not, and 277 00:16:25,840 --> 00:16:27,040 Speaker 2: obviously there's a. 278 00:16:27,000 --> 00:16:27,600 Speaker 1: Lot of or not. 279 00:16:29,000 --> 00:16:35,080 Speaker 2: This how how can anybody remain in office? How could 280 00:16:35,120 --> 00:16:39,800 Speaker 2: the public keep Gavin Newsom in office, he should be 281 00:16:39,960 --> 00:16:45,680 Speaker 2: forced out immediately. Imagine again that you had somebody at 282 00:16:45,720 --> 00:16:51,120 Speaker 2: your workplace who is an executive and for five years 283 00:16:51,640 --> 00:16:57,000 Speaker 2: he had no idea what was coming in, what was 284 00:16:57,040 --> 00:17:00,560 Speaker 2: going out, and whether all the money spent done whatever 285 00:17:00,600 --> 00:17:05,399 Speaker 2: product and services you have ever did any good? That 286 00:17:05,560 --> 00:17:08,639 Speaker 2: billions of dollars disappeared from your company without a trace. 287 00:17:11,520 --> 00:17:15,680 Speaker 2: I will never understand till I'm dead what anybody sees 288 00:17:15,720 --> 00:17:18,640 Speaker 2: in Gavin Newsom. If it isn't obvious on day one 289 00:17:19,080 --> 00:17:22,560 Speaker 2: that he's an empty headed fool, does. 290 00:17:22,359 --> 00:17:23,199 Speaker 1: This convince you? 291 00:17:25,920 --> 00:17:27,680 Speaker 2: I mean, I'd love to go to the most partisan 292 00:17:28,400 --> 00:17:31,560 Speaker 2: pro Gavin Newsom. You know, those white, wealthy, woke women 293 00:17:31,560 --> 00:17:34,800 Speaker 2: who find Newsome to be cute because of his hair 294 00:17:34,880 --> 00:17:40,920 Speaker 2: gel and his jawline. Explain this to him. I mean, 295 00:17:41,040 --> 00:17:44,760 Speaker 2: in the El Sagunda Times printed printed a lot of 296 00:17:44,800 --> 00:17:49,280 Speaker 2: these details. This is not an immediate bias thing. Really, 297 00:17:49,280 --> 00:17:52,159 Speaker 2: they blew twenty four billion dollars. They really did, Gavin 298 00:17:52,200 --> 00:17:55,040 Speaker 2: Newsom blew twenty four billion dollars in homelessness, and they 299 00:17:55,080 --> 00:17:58,440 Speaker 2: don't know, they don't know what it went for. They 300 00:17:58,440 --> 00:18:00,520 Speaker 2: can't tell you that it did any good. They don't 301 00:18:00,520 --> 00:18:03,280 Speaker 2: know they never looked. They never looked. Nobody in the 302 00:18:03,280 --> 00:18:06,320 Speaker 2: whole system, including the governor, ever looked to see. Nobody 303 00:18:06,359 --> 00:18:11,360 Speaker 2: was curious. It's just a racket. It's just to reward 304 00:18:11,880 --> 00:18:16,320 Speaker 2: the politically connected who set up these quickly nonprofits. They 305 00:18:16,400 --> 00:18:18,840 Speaker 2: take in millions of dollars and they pay themselves hundreds 306 00:18:18,840 --> 00:18:23,000 Speaker 2: of thousands. There's no homeless help going on here at all. 307 00:18:23,040 --> 00:18:23,880 Speaker 2: There never has been. 308 00:18:24,760 --> 00:18:25,600 Speaker 1: No more. Coming up. 309 00:18:26,680 --> 00:18:31,000 Speaker 4: You're listening to John Cobels on demand from KFI AM 310 00:18:31,040 --> 00:18:31,600 Speaker 4: six forty. 311 00:18:32,440 --> 00:18:34,520 Speaker 2: Alex Stone's going to come on with us from MAYBC 312 00:18:34,680 --> 00:18:41,960 Speaker 2: News just after two o'clock. Another Boeing shocker here. There's 313 00:18:42,000 --> 00:18:45,520 Speaker 2: an engineer who's worked on the seven eighty seven Dreamliner, 314 00:18:46,160 --> 00:18:51,000 Speaker 2: and he says that there could be structural flaws with 315 00:18:51,160 --> 00:18:55,119 Speaker 2: the seven eighty seven and it would start breaking apart 316 00:18:55,560 --> 00:18:59,919 Speaker 2: during flight later down the road. The more it flies, 317 00:19:00,119 --> 00:19:04,400 Speaker 2: the more the chance that it's going to burst into pieces. 318 00:19:04,960 --> 00:19:08,399 Speaker 2: He's going to testify in Washington, d C. Next week. 319 00:19:09,240 --> 00:19:14,040 Speaker 2: He says the fuselage is being fastened together improperly. Apparently 320 00:19:14,480 --> 00:19:19,000 Speaker 2: the fuselage comes in sections from different companies and then 321 00:19:19,080 --> 00:19:21,879 Speaker 2: Boeing has to assemble it like I guess like a 322 00:19:21,960 --> 00:19:25,560 Speaker 2: jigsaw puzzle and fasten it together. And I guess this 323 00:19:26,400 --> 00:19:31,520 Speaker 2: whistleblower thinks that it's it's it's it's not a good 324 00:19:31,840 --> 00:19:34,640 Speaker 2: it's not a good process they have, and eventually everything's 325 00:19:34,680 --> 00:19:36,240 Speaker 2: going to come apart, and it's going to come apart 326 00:19:36,280 --> 00:19:43,520 Speaker 2: during a flight. Boeing claims they've investigated this problem. We'll 327 00:19:43,640 --> 00:19:46,240 Speaker 2: we'll find out more with Alex Stone coming out coming 328 00:19:46,320 --> 00:19:50,920 Speaker 2: up after two o'clock. I'm just I even. I mean, 329 00:19:50,920 --> 00:19:53,440 Speaker 2: I've I've read the story several times. I just talked 330 00:19:53,440 --> 00:19:56,639 Speaker 2: about it on the air, But I cannot believe that 331 00:19:56,720 --> 00:19:59,200 Speaker 2: the state of California has spent twenty four billion dollars 332 00:19:59,240 --> 00:20:02,320 Speaker 2: on homelessness. Everything got worse, and they have never tracked 333 00:20:02,359 --> 00:20:05,560 Speaker 2: a dollar. They don't know what's going on. According to 334 00:20:05,600 --> 00:20:11,359 Speaker 2: the California State Auditor, they have not tracked any of 335 00:20:11,400 --> 00:20:13,400 Speaker 2: the money that's been spent, and they could not tell 336 00:20:13,440 --> 00:20:15,320 Speaker 2: you what works and what doesn't. 337 00:20:15,320 --> 00:20:16,640 Speaker 1: Clearly a lot doesn't work. 338 00:20:16,760 --> 00:20:19,680 Speaker 2: Clearly right, because we have a third of the homeless 339 00:20:19,680 --> 00:20:21,480 Speaker 2: in the whole country. All the numbers have shot up 340 00:20:21,520 --> 00:20:25,600 Speaker 2: for ten straight years, and it was even up last year. 341 00:20:26,800 --> 00:20:30,520 Speaker 2: They don't care, and I guess there was no reaction today. 342 00:20:30,560 --> 00:20:32,959 Speaker 2: You didn't hear Kevin Newsom speak about this. There's no 343 00:20:33,000 --> 00:20:37,120 Speaker 2: reaction from anybody in government. And because they expect, first 344 00:20:37,160 --> 00:20:41,920 Speaker 2: of all, heart, the news media reported this lightly. It's there, 345 00:20:42,359 --> 00:20:47,600 Speaker 2: but it's not this big, overwhelming story. And the Democrats 346 00:20:47,960 --> 00:20:50,560 Speaker 2: in Sacramento figure it'll blow over in a couple of days, 347 00:20:51,040 --> 00:20:53,639 Speaker 2: so it doesn't matter. So and the thing is, the 348 00:20:53,680 --> 00:20:56,280 Speaker 2: homeless stay in your neighborhood, They stay in your parks, 349 00:20:56,320 --> 00:20:59,359 Speaker 2: they stay in front of your schools. They still break 350 00:20:59,400 --> 00:21:03,359 Speaker 2: into the store. They still are creepy and weird and 351 00:21:03,440 --> 00:21:08,080 Speaker 2: make you feel unsafe, make you feel spooked. They're still there, 352 00:21:10,040 --> 00:21:12,359 Speaker 2: and there is no chance they're going to go anywhere 353 00:21:12,480 --> 00:21:17,000 Speaker 2: because nobody in government, certainly not Karen Bashard, you have 354 00:21:17,080 --> 00:21:21,520 Speaker 2: you you some care. They're just redirecting money to enrich 355 00:21:23,520 --> 00:21:26,520 Speaker 2: the politically connected who start these fake nonprofits. And I'm 356 00:21:26,520 --> 00:21:30,440 Speaker 2: telling you the nonprofits are fake, they're criminal. The whole 357 00:21:30,480 --> 00:21:33,919 Speaker 2: system should be bull dozed. They have no interest in 358 00:21:33,960 --> 00:21:38,400 Speaker 2: clearing out homelessness none. All of it is rhetoric. It's fake, 359 00:21:38,600 --> 00:21:44,280 Speaker 2: phony rhetoric. That here's something else that's hard to believe. 360 00:21:45,480 --> 00:21:50,200 Speaker 2: The California State assembly Woman Kate Sanchez. Kate Sanchez has 361 00:21:50,240 --> 00:21:54,240 Speaker 2: a bill. Is this controversial? Is it like a political thing? 362 00:21:54,280 --> 00:21:54,560 Speaker 1: Tell me? 363 00:21:54,680 --> 00:21:59,359 Speaker 2: Is this controversial that if you have illegal alien sentinel 364 00:21:59,440 --> 00:22:05,720 Speaker 2: dealers and and they're convicted of felonies, can they Can 365 00:22:05,760 --> 00:22:09,640 Speaker 2: they be deported or do they? She says, no more 366 00:22:09,720 --> 00:22:19,320 Speaker 2: sanctuary state protections expose these illegal alien fentanyl dealers to deportation. 367 00:22:20,359 --> 00:22:26,280 Speaker 2: But I listen to this. We found this on her 368 00:22:26,600 --> 00:22:31,479 Speaker 2: twitter feed. Here's her talking about the bill, and at 369 00:22:31,520 --> 00:22:34,600 Speaker 2: the end you'll hear the Assembly voting the bill down. 370 00:22:36,080 --> 00:22:38,120 Speaker 6: Respectfully, I don't believe this is an anti immigrant bill 371 00:22:38,160 --> 00:22:41,840 Speaker 6: at all. It's anti fentanyl to start, this bill simply 372 00:22:41,920 --> 00:22:44,159 Speaker 6: is a referendum on the sanctuary state policy as it 373 00:22:44,200 --> 00:22:46,880 Speaker 6: re leads to fentanyl dealers. I don't believe current law 374 00:22:46,920 --> 00:22:48,800 Speaker 6: is working, and I believe we need to give law 375 00:22:48,840 --> 00:22:51,760 Speaker 6: enforcement more tools to protect our Californian communities. 376 00:22:52,119 --> 00:22:53,600 Speaker 7: Maybe two two oh nine is a choice. 377 00:22:53,640 --> 00:22:56,520 Speaker 6: It's a choice between fixing our fentanyl crisis or doing nothing. 378 00:22:57,280 --> 00:22:59,639 Speaker 6: It's a choice of either protecting innocent lives or protecting 379 00:22:59,720 --> 00:23:01,919 Speaker 6: the law iorhoods of criminal cartel members. 380 00:23:02,119 --> 00:23:03,200 Speaker 1: Thank you, please call the rule. 381 00:23:04,680 --> 00:23:07,160 Speaker 7: On ABE twenty two oh nine by Simon mer Sanchez. 382 00:23:07,200 --> 00:23:10,200 Speaker 7: The motion is due passed to the Appropriations Committee. McCarty, 383 00:23:10,600 --> 00:23:18,919 Speaker 7: McCarty no, Elanie elanise I, Lackey, Lackey I when Rayes, Rayes, no, 384 00:23:19,160 --> 00:23:23,560 Speaker 7: ting Ding No, Wilson, Wilson no, suburn no. 385 00:23:24,800 --> 00:23:27,439 Speaker 1: That measure fails. Next Author, mister Berman, there you go. 386 00:23:27,520 --> 00:23:30,520 Speaker 2: That's it didn't get out of committee. You had all 387 00:23:30,600 --> 00:23:36,480 Speaker 2: Democrats voting voting no. Again. This is deporting felony sentinel 388 00:23:36,600 --> 00:23:38,240 Speaker 2: dealers who are here illegally. 389 00:23:39,680 --> 00:23:41,959 Speaker 1: They will not I want to get by the way. 390 00:23:42,000 --> 00:23:44,159 Speaker 2: I want to get the names ray Well'll get a 391 00:23:44,200 --> 00:23:47,600 Speaker 2: chance maybe tomorrow, the names of those on the committee 392 00:23:47,600 --> 00:23:51,560 Speaker 2: who voted no. And we're going to publicize them, and 393 00:23:51,560 --> 00:23:53,560 Speaker 2: we're going to describe them, and we're going to give 394 00:23:53,560 --> 00:23:55,040 Speaker 2: out their phone numbers, and we're going to give out 395 00:23:55,040 --> 00:23:57,720 Speaker 2: their email addresses, and we'll see how many of them 396 00:23:57,720 --> 00:23:59,760 Speaker 2: are in the southern California area. But it doesn't matter. 397 00:23:59,760 --> 00:24:02,360 Speaker 2: They all be contacted because they're on the record now. 398 00:24:03,200 --> 00:24:08,200 Speaker 2: It would deport illegal alien fentanyl dealers. It would force 399 00:24:08,240 --> 00:24:12,760 Speaker 2: the state to turn them over to federal immigration authorities, 400 00:24:13,200 --> 00:24:16,400 Speaker 2: so they would no longer get sanctuary protect fentinal dealers. 401 00:24:16,840 --> 00:24:20,359 Speaker 1: Hello, is this a political issue. This is this is 402 00:24:20,400 --> 00:24:21,600 Speaker 1: not some liberal thing, is it? 403 00:24:21,680 --> 00:24:21,760 Speaker 7: No? 404 00:24:21,880 --> 00:24:26,560 Speaker 2: This is just an insanity thing. This is the fringe wackos, 405 00:24:27,680 --> 00:24:31,360 Speaker 2: and the legislature is made up of fringe wackos. They 406 00:24:31,400 --> 00:24:37,560 Speaker 2: will not deport fentanyl dealers if they're here illegally. I 407 00:24:37,560 --> 00:24:43,760 Speaker 2: I this is so crazy, and they'll actually vote no 408 00:24:43,880 --> 00:24:46,760 Speaker 2: in public. Although I looked like a couple were cowards. 409 00:24:46,880 --> 00:24:50,480 Speaker 2: I want their names too. A couple weren't responding. We 410 00:24:50,600 --> 00:24:52,879 Speaker 2: talked about that yesterday. That's a trick that a lot 411 00:24:52,920 --> 00:24:55,600 Speaker 2: of the Democrats use when they don't want to say that, 412 00:24:55,680 --> 00:24:59,359 Speaker 2: when they don't want to vote no, or when they 413 00:24:59,400 --> 00:25:03,360 Speaker 2: want to don't want want to vote no publicly, because 414 00:25:04,080 --> 00:25:06,720 Speaker 2: they don't want it to be a campaign issue, right, 415 00:25:07,160 --> 00:25:13,080 Speaker 2: they'll just go quiet. They're weasels and Wenna, we're gonna 416 00:25:13,200 --> 00:25:17,720 Speaker 2: name the weasels who voted against Kate Sanchez's bill. Seriously, 417 00:25:17,800 --> 00:25:21,360 Speaker 2: is there a single person out there that wants illegal 418 00:25:21,400 --> 00:25:26,160 Speaker 2: alien fentanel dealers to stay in business and not get deported? 419 00:25:26,800 --> 00:25:31,560 Speaker 2: Is anybody? Is there one person? Outside of I doubt 420 00:25:31,600 --> 00:25:34,160 Speaker 2: there's anybody listening. I think this is only like fanatical 421 00:25:34,200 --> 00:25:40,720 Speaker 2: activists and politicians. Nobody normal would possibly vote down Sanchez's bill. 422 00:25:40,760 --> 00:25:42,119 Speaker 1: This is amazing stuff today. 423 00:25:42,600 --> 00:25:44,679 Speaker 2: All right, we got more coming up, and after eight 424 00:25:44,720 --> 00:25:49,520 Speaker 2: o'clock it's Alex Stone seven eighty seven Boeing Dreamliner. Could 425 00:25:49,560 --> 00:25:53,040 Speaker 2: it break apart into pieces? That's what an engineer says, 426 00:25:53,440 --> 00:25:56,119 Speaker 2: may happen down the road with some of these because 427 00:25:56,160 --> 00:25:59,240 Speaker 2: they're not fastened together properly. We'll explain all this after 428 00:26:00,040 --> 00:26:01,160 Speaker 2: after two o'clock. 429 00:26:02,280 --> 00:26:06,600 Speaker 4: You're listening to John Cobels on demand from KFI AM 430 00:26:06,640 --> 00:26:07,160 Speaker 4: six forty. 431 00:26:07,960 --> 00:26:10,560 Speaker 2: Next hour, we're going to talk with Alex Stone from 432 00:26:10,600 --> 00:26:14,320 Speaker 2: ABC News about the bowing Dreamliners seven eighty seven. There's 433 00:26:14,359 --> 00:26:17,760 Speaker 2: another whistleblower. He's going to testify before Congress and he 434 00:26:17,880 --> 00:26:22,440 Speaker 2: said the seven eighty seven Dreamliner may break apart down 435 00:26:22,480 --> 00:26:25,520 Speaker 2: the road. Longer it flies, the more likely the fuselage 436 00:26:25,640 --> 00:26:29,280 Speaker 2: where we'll burst into pieces. 437 00:26:29,760 --> 00:26:30,640 Speaker 1: Not making this up. 438 00:26:32,080 --> 00:26:34,560 Speaker 2: Also, we're going to talk with Steve Gregory next hour. 439 00:26:35,440 --> 00:26:39,440 Speaker 2: LA is apparently the car theft Capito of the United States. 440 00:26:40,720 --> 00:26:43,120 Speaker 1: We're number one. Excellent. 441 00:26:43,880 --> 00:26:47,320 Speaker 2: Everything is going as planned in Karen Bass's Los Angeles. 442 00:26:48,680 --> 00:26:53,600 Speaker 2: The inflation report came out today. Yesterday, we went through 443 00:26:53,960 --> 00:26:56,520 Speaker 2: the Wall Street Journal did an analysis of food inflation 444 00:26:57,320 --> 00:27:02,440 Speaker 2: and depending on what kind of groceries you get, you're 445 00:27:02,480 --> 00:27:06,040 Speaker 2: paying thirty five to fifty percent more than you did 446 00:27:06,080 --> 00:27:10,919 Speaker 2: five years ago. And these are common, ordinary groceries that 447 00:27:11,080 --> 00:27:14,280 Speaker 2: most people buy. Thirty five to fifty percent just depends 448 00:27:14,280 --> 00:27:16,240 Speaker 2: on what you decide to put into the basket. Right, 449 00:27:17,480 --> 00:27:21,280 Speaker 2: that's really really high in five years. In fact, they 450 00:27:21,359 --> 00:27:23,879 Speaker 2: figure in a minimum. Well, if you spend one hundred 451 00:27:23,920 --> 00:27:26,399 Speaker 2: dollars on a bag of groceries, it would cost you 452 00:27:26,440 --> 00:27:30,359 Speaker 2: one hundred and thirty seven dollars today, one hundred dollars 453 00:27:30,400 --> 00:27:32,760 Speaker 2: five years ago, one thirty seven today, So you'd have 454 00:27:32,840 --> 00:27:36,080 Speaker 2: to take out thirty seven dollars worth of groceries if 455 00:27:36,119 --> 00:27:39,760 Speaker 2: all you had on you was one hundred. Well, the 456 00:27:39,800 --> 00:27:42,919 Speaker 2: consumer price indecks went up three and a half percent 457 00:27:44,960 --> 00:27:48,560 Speaker 2: in March of this year compared to last year. Now 458 00:27:48,560 --> 00:27:50,879 Speaker 2: a three and a half percent increase. This is on 459 00:27:51,000 --> 00:27:53,200 Speaker 2: top of the last five years of increases. 460 00:27:53,280 --> 00:27:53,520 Speaker 1: Right. 461 00:27:55,160 --> 00:28:01,080 Speaker 2: The core prices also rose more than exp that excludes 462 00:28:01,160 --> 00:28:02,679 Speaker 2: food and energy categories. 463 00:28:02,840 --> 00:28:05,199 Speaker 1: Why would you exclude food and energy? I don't know. 464 00:28:05,840 --> 00:28:09,280 Speaker 2: That's really most of your day to day shopping, isn't it. 465 00:28:09,280 --> 00:28:14,400 Speaker 2: But anyway, both numbers sucked, So the stock market took 466 00:28:14,400 --> 00:28:17,760 Speaker 2: a dump today. What I looked at one story that 467 00:28:17,880 --> 00:28:20,479 Speaker 2: came out from the Wall Street Journal, and I just 468 00:28:20,600 --> 00:28:23,560 Speaker 2: I just took a yellow highlighter and marked all the 469 00:28:23,640 --> 00:28:27,640 Speaker 2: places where they pointed out that all the government experts 470 00:28:27,720 --> 00:28:32,840 Speaker 2: economists don't know what they're talking about. For example, all right, 471 00:28:32,920 --> 00:28:36,520 Speaker 2: the consumer pricing dext rows three and a half percent. 472 00:28:37,160 --> 00:28:40,560 Speaker 2: That was a touch higher than economists had forecast, higher 473 00:28:40,600 --> 00:28:44,960 Speaker 2: than a economist at forecast. Then two lines later, court 474 00:28:45,000 --> 00:28:48,880 Speaker 2: prices rose more than expected on a monthly basis and 475 00:28:49,040 --> 00:28:53,360 Speaker 2: annual basis. I see read farther down. Third straight month 476 00:28:53,360 --> 00:28:57,080 Speaker 2: of above expectations Inflata inflation data. 477 00:28:59,520 --> 00:28:59,960 Speaker 1: Next page. 478 00:29:00,160 --> 00:29:06,120 Speaker 2: Cost of shelter continued to defy predictions. Many economics had 479 00:29:06,160 --> 00:29:10,320 Speaker 2: remained optimistic that inflation would decline in March, but the 480 00:29:10,400 --> 00:29:14,720 Speaker 2: latest data prompted some to push back the timing. Of course, 481 00:29:14,800 --> 00:29:17,880 Speaker 2: originally they said inflation wasn't going to happen, and then 482 00:29:17,920 --> 00:29:19,800 Speaker 2: they said it was only going to be transitory. I 483 00:29:19,800 --> 00:29:24,320 Speaker 2: think that's what the Biden spokeshuls were trying to push. 484 00:29:24,840 --> 00:29:28,120 Speaker 1: So they have been wrong. Well, they're always wrong. 485 00:29:28,240 --> 00:29:31,320 Speaker 2: Everybody in public life is always wrong, with all their stupid, 486 00:29:31,320 --> 00:29:37,200 Speaker 2: stupid predictions. It's and I guess they assume most people 487 00:29:37,200 --> 00:29:40,160 Speaker 2: aren't paying attention and it doesn't really matter, but it 488 00:29:40,200 --> 00:29:42,720 Speaker 2: does show that they don't know what they're doing at all. 489 00:29:43,080 --> 00:29:43,760 Speaker 1: I read today. 490 00:29:43,880 --> 00:29:48,360 Speaker 2: I read today that the Biden administration dropped at extra 491 00:29:48,480 --> 00:29:51,800 Speaker 2: five trillion dollars in spending over the course of his term. 492 00:29:52,000 --> 00:29:59,200 Speaker 2: Five trillion dollars. This is all borrowed printed money, which 493 00:29:59,240 --> 00:30:02,280 Speaker 2: is what jacked up. That's what ignited the inflation. That's 494 00:30:02,280 --> 00:30:06,160 Speaker 2: what jacked it up. Five extra trillion dollars, just arbitrarily 495 00:30:06,320 --> 00:30:10,320 Speaker 2: thrown into the pot, money out of nowhere, money borrowed 496 00:30:10,320 --> 00:30:15,000 Speaker 2: from the Chinese, money off a printing press. Five trillion dollars. Well, 497 00:30:15,040 --> 00:30:21,480 Speaker 2: of course you get inflation. It's impossible not to, and 498 00:30:21,560 --> 00:30:25,000 Speaker 2: now they can't stop it.
