00:02:35,400 --> 00:02:38,280
Speaker 1: pretty much. Yeah, yeah, yeah, we definitely ask you a

40
00:02:38,320 --> 00:02:41,360
Speaker 1: little bit more about what's going on since the piece

41
00:02:41,400 --> 00:02:43,840
Speaker 1: that you dropped with knock l A came out, because

42
00:02:43,880 --> 00:02:46,880
Speaker 1: I from my standpoint, I feel like it's a lot

43
00:02:46,919 --> 00:02:50,000
Speaker 1: has been happening um ever since, with especially with like

44
00:02:50,040 --> 00:02:53,440
Speaker 1: the increased awareness around the gangs in the Los Angeles

45
00:02:53,520 --> 00:02:56,720
Speaker 1: Sheriff's Department. And I love that hashtag too, or whenever

46
00:02:56,760 --> 00:02:59,800
Speaker 1: weople saying google l A s D Gangs, that's just

47
00:03:00,000 --> 00:03:01,720
Speaker 1: the thing we want to say to everybody listening to

48
00:03:01,760 --> 00:03:04,120
Speaker 1: the show, Google that L A s D gangs when

49
00:03:04,200 --> 00:03:06,440
Speaker 1: you have a second, which should be right now, Yeah,

50
00:03:06,680 --> 00:03:10,440
Speaker 1: go read the piece. Go read the piece. All right, Well, series,

51
00:03:10,480 --> 00:03:12,800
Speaker 1: we're gonna get to know you a little bit better,

52
00:03:12,840 --> 00:03:15,360
Speaker 1: catch up on all that in a little bit. First,

53
00:03:15,360 --> 00:03:17,280
Speaker 1: we're gonna tell our listeners a couple of things we're

54
00:03:17,320 --> 00:03:20,920
Speaker 1: talking about. In addition to the L A s D Gangs,

55
00:03:20,919 --> 00:03:24,240
Speaker 1: we're gonna talk about the revelation from the Pentagon that

56
00:03:24,560 --> 00:03:29,520
Speaker 1: some of the Haitian president's assassins were trained by US military.

57
00:03:29,639 --> 00:03:33,560
Speaker 1: They said a small number of the assassins, which was

58
00:03:34,120 --> 00:03:37,600
Speaker 1: still probably too many. So we're gonna talk about that

59
00:03:37,680 --> 00:03:42,840
Speaker 1: and talk about just the general atmosphere of mercenaries like

60
00:03:42,880 --> 00:03:45,880
Speaker 1: a world run by mercenaries that we're kind of looking

61
00:03:46,400 --> 00:03:50,080
Speaker 1: looking at in the future. Will talk about drones for

62
00:03:50,200 --> 00:03:53,800
Speaker 1: the home, another way that you can buy your way

63
00:03:53,800 --> 00:04:00,000
Speaker 1: into like military supremacy. Uh, hey, did you want to

64
00:04:00,080 --> 00:04:05,640
Speaker 1: crowdfund surveillance. Yeah, And we'll talk about hines trying to

65
00:04:06,320 --> 00:04:10,720
Speaker 1: even things up, to bring some some sanity to this

66
00:04:10,760 --> 00:04:13,720
Speaker 1: world by making it so that hot dog buns and

67
00:04:13,800 --> 00:04:19,880
Speaker 1: hot dogs come in the same number container or packaging. Oh, okay,

68
00:04:19,920 --> 00:04:22,960
Speaker 1: that's always something I think about. There's a few places

69
00:04:23,080 --> 00:04:26,120
Speaker 1: that the number of buns matches the number of francs

70
00:04:26,160 --> 00:04:28,559
Speaker 1: that you get, and when they do, it's always eight

71
00:04:28,560 --> 00:04:32,599
Speaker 1: francs to match the eight buns. It's never ten buns

72
00:04:32,640 --> 00:04:39,320
Speaker 1: to match the ten hot dogs. Five packs that eight

73
00:04:39,360 --> 00:04:41,840
Speaker 1: to get to forty and then you have a number

74
00:04:41,880 --> 00:04:44,000
Speaker 1: divisible by ten, and then you see and that's how

75
00:04:44,040 --> 00:04:45,920
Speaker 1: they get you. That's how they get you. And see

76
00:04:45,960 --> 00:04:49,120
Speaker 1: the matrix already all of that plenty more. But first series,

77
00:04:49,240 --> 00:04:51,680
Speaker 1: we like to ask our guests, what is something from

78
00:04:51,680 --> 00:04:55,680
Speaker 1: your search history. The last thing that I searched for

79
00:04:56,279 --> 00:05:00,800
Speaker 1: was l A County election filing. Very exciting l A

80
00:05:00,960 --> 00:05:05,040
Speaker 1: County Election FI. What is this in relation to specifically

81
00:05:05,080 --> 00:05:08,839
Speaker 1: what what races. Well, we do have the race for

82
00:05:08,960 --> 00:05:13,360
Speaker 1: sheriff coming up in June of two. We just had

83
00:05:13,400 --> 00:05:17,640
Speaker 1: a candidate announced last week by the name of Cecil Rambo.

84
00:05:18,520 --> 00:05:21,800
Speaker 1: Mr Rambo is alleged to be an associate of at

85
00:05:21,880 --> 00:05:26,720
Speaker 1: least three different deputy gangs. So I was checking in

86
00:05:26,760 --> 00:05:31,599
Speaker 1: to see what other gang affiliates of throwing their hat

87
00:05:31,880 --> 00:05:35,800
Speaker 1: into the race, right, Is it just Alex Llanueva? Is

88
00:05:35,839 --> 00:05:39,000
Speaker 1: it this Cecil Rambo not just a clever name? I

89
00:05:39,040 --> 00:05:43,960
Speaker 1: guess god given name? Yes, that really his name because

90
00:05:44,000 --> 00:05:47,640
Speaker 1: that is his name? Wow? Hell yeah? Is Villaneueva up?

91
00:05:47,720 --> 00:05:50,720
Speaker 1: Like is he not running? He is running? Yeah, he's

92
00:05:50,760 --> 00:05:53,560
Speaker 1: running for reelection. Cecil Rambo is like that dudes to

93
00:05:53,760 --> 00:05:56,200
Speaker 1: left wing let me get out here and uh really

94
00:05:56,200 --> 00:06:01,440
Speaker 1: reped the gangs. Cecil Rambo actually and his announcement video,

95
00:06:01,800 --> 00:06:04,880
Speaker 1: he said that he is one of the only people

96
00:06:04,960 --> 00:06:07,680
Speaker 1: that has stood up to deputy gangs, which is a

97
00:06:07,720 --> 00:06:11,479
Speaker 1: common refrain of people that are actually alleged to be

98
00:06:11,480 --> 00:06:14,919
Speaker 1: a part of the gangs themselves. How do they square

99
00:06:15,000 --> 00:06:18,000
Speaker 1: that when they're like, when you're like, um, it looks

100
00:06:18,040 --> 00:06:21,040
Speaker 1: like there's documentation to indicate you're involved. In the gang,

101
00:06:21,080 --> 00:06:23,120
Speaker 1: but you stood up to be like the one day

102
00:06:23,120 --> 00:06:25,640
Speaker 1: You're like, hey, let's not do too much gang stuff today.

103
00:06:25,640 --> 00:06:29,040
Speaker 1: So like, I don't what what what? What is sort

104
00:06:29,080 --> 00:06:30,760
Speaker 1: of the logic that they apply to be able to

105
00:06:30,760 --> 00:06:32,120
Speaker 1: sort of say something like that a lot, or it's

106
00:06:32,120 --> 00:06:35,360
Speaker 1: just merely an empty talking point. Um, It's something that

107
00:06:35,560 --> 00:06:38,280
Speaker 1: I want to dive more into. I'm planning to speak

108
00:06:38,320 --> 00:06:40,880
Speaker 1: with c. Soul in the coming days, so I'm really

109
00:06:40,920 --> 00:06:43,920
Speaker 1: interested to see, you know, how he sort of squares

110
00:06:44,000 --> 00:06:48,920
Speaker 1: the allegations that have flown around him for the past

111
00:06:49,240 --> 00:06:53,919
Speaker 1: ten plus years, as well as various lawsuits that have

112
00:06:54,000 --> 00:06:58,279
Speaker 1: been filed um with him being named as an associate.

113
00:06:58,839 --> 00:07:00,839
Speaker 1: It's a question that I have than I'm looking for

114
00:07:00,880 --> 00:07:04,040
Speaker 1: the answer to. M M yeah, yeah, good luck. I

115
00:07:04,080 --> 00:07:07,080
Speaker 1: wish you lucky in trying to get a clear answer

116
00:07:07,160 --> 00:07:10,120
Speaker 1: from someone who kind only mags to be very evasive

117
00:07:10,240 --> 00:07:14,000
Speaker 1: when asking answering a direct question like that, are there

118
00:07:14,040 --> 00:07:18,400
Speaker 1: any are there any like reform candidates at all possibly running?

119
00:07:18,400 --> 00:07:22,000
Speaker 1: I mean, how do you run for sheriff and even

120
00:07:22,160 --> 00:07:24,640
Speaker 1: make it far enough when your your platforms like, yeah,

121
00:07:24,680 --> 00:07:27,560
Speaker 1: I'm trying to actually make this better and not as

122
00:07:27,560 --> 00:07:32,880
Speaker 1: oppressive as possible. To my knowledge, at least five of

123
00:07:32,920 --> 00:07:37,280
Speaker 1: the candidates are from within the Sheriff's department themselves. Of

124
00:07:37,400 --> 00:07:41,920
Speaker 1: those five, three are associated with deputy gangs, and there

125
00:07:42,200 --> 00:07:47,520
Speaker 1: is one candidate that is outside the department. She is

126
00:07:47,560 --> 00:07:53,600
Speaker 1: a former Long Beach Police, school resources officer and parole employee.

127
00:07:54,040 --> 00:07:59,480
Speaker 1: She also ran for Board of Supervisors inteen for District one.

128
00:08:00,200 --> 00:08:03,880
Speaker 1: And the other guy, um, the sixth candidate. I really

129
00:08:03,920 --> 00:08:08,239
Speaker 1: can't find anything out about him, so I don't really

130
00:08:08,240 --> 00:08:10,960
Speaker 1: have too much to say on him. And if she

131
00:08:11,520 --> 00:08:16,120
Speaker 1: is anybody like going strong on the reform, like taking

132
00:08:16,200 --> 00:08:19,960
Speaker 1: your reporting seriously. So how do they even differentiate at

133
00:08:19,960 --> 00:08:22,440
Speaker 1: this point, like in terms of what their appeal would

134
00:08:22,440 --> 00:08:26,240
Speaker 1: be to an electorate? Potentially, It's like when when I'm

135
00:08:26,240 --> 00:08:30,040
Speaker 1: reading their platforms online, to be honest with you, it's

136
00:08:30,080 --> 00:08:33,240
Speaker 1: it's they're really not that different from each other. It's

137
00:08:33,280 --> 00:08:36,480
Speaker 1: a lot of political buzzwords, but as far as like

138
00:08:37,280 --> 00:08:41,880
Speaker 1: policies go, uh, there's not really a lot. You know,

139
00:08:42,120 --> 00:08:44,560
Speaker 1: Someone's like, I'm the one for more money for drones,

140
00:08:44,760 --> 00:08:46,719
Speaker 1: and someone's like I'm the one for more money for

141
00:08:46,840 --> 00:08:50,160
Speaker 1: armored vehicles, and that that's where we differ in how

142
00:08:50,160 --> 00:08:52,480
Speaker 1: we want to spend our increased budgets. And it looks

143
00:08:52,520 --> 00:08:58,439
Speaker 1: like mustaches might be another thing that maybe differentiating. I'm

144
00:08:58,480 --> 00:09:02,200
Speaker 1: the one with a mustache. Well, yes, I well Vienuev

145
00:09:02,280 --> 00:09:07,040
Speaker 1: is the only one without a mustache. So little controversial

146
00:09:08,800 --> 00:09:11,280
Speaker 1: are you? Even as sheriff Sir? You don't have a

147
00:09:11,320 --> 00:09:15,280
Speaker 1: pushbrew mustache like our boys, Cecil rambow here or even

148
00:09:15,280 --> 00:09:20,840
Speaker 1: Eli Vera. What is something you think is overrated? Gosh?

149
00:09:20,920 --> 00:09:24,680
Speaker 1: I think the Loki show is overrated. The whole Marvel

150
00:09:24,840 --> 00:09:29,240
Speaker 1: universe I think is overrated. I have not seen it.

151
00:09:29,320 --> 00:09:34,240
Speaker 1: I've I will. I don't know. I mean, were you

152
00:09:34,280 --> 00:09:38,439
Speaker 1: a big Marvel Universe fan and then you watched it? No? No,

153
00:09:38,760 --> 00:09:43,040
Speaker 1: I I got into the Marvel Universe and Lockdown, we

154
00:09:43,200 --> 00:09:48,640
Speaker 1: got Disney Plus and we've been watching Loki and people

155
00:09:48,640 --> 00:09:51,040
Speaker 1: are always talking about and I don't know. I just

156
00:09:51,200 --> 00:09:55,199
Speaker 1: don't get it, Like I'm not insuited at all. People

157
00:09:55,200 --> 00:09:58,280
Speaker 1: are so into these movies and this television show, and

158
00:09:58,360 --> 00:10:04,440
Speaker 1: I just I really don't get it. You know, I

159
00:10:04,559 --> 00:10:08,040
Speaker 1: started it, didn't finish it the same reason. I just

160
00:10:08,240 --> 00:10:13,840
Speaker 1: didn't get the appeal. It's just not something that I

161
00:10:13,920 --> 00:10:17,920
Speaker 1: just don't understand. Do you like it? I know. I

162
00:10:17,920 --> 00:10:20,480
Speaker 1: I famously have not watched any of them because I'm

163
00:10:20,480 --> 00:10:23,960
Speaker 1: like a just like a completionist. And and I've said

164
00:10:23,960 --> 00:10:26,240
Speaker 1: this before the show, like the tick at which these

165
00:10:26,280 --> 00:10:28,559
Speaker 1: films came out was too much for me to keep

166
00:10:28,640 --> 00:10:30,280
Speaker 1: up with, and so I was just like, no, I'm

167
00:10:30,280 --> 00:10:32,240
Speaker 1: not I can't do this. This is too many films

168
00:10:32,640 --> 00:10:35,160
Speaker 1: to like understand the other films. So a lot of

169
00:10:35,200 --> 00:10:38,480
Speaker 1: listeners have been like, just watch these six in this

170
00:10:38,720 --> 00:10:41,160
Speaker 1: order and it'll make sense. And I'm like, it's just

171
00:10:41,280 --> 00:10:45,040
Speaker 1: a huge time investment and it's too mud. It's it's

172
00:10:45,040 --> 00:10:47,400
Speaker 1: a little bit hard for me, but yeah, I get

173
00:10:47,440 --> 00:10:50,040
Speaker 1: it people. You know they're they're really caught up in them,

174
00:10:50,040 --> 00:10:52,880
Speaker 1: see you. I feel like they'd just be baking them

175
00:10:52,960 --> 00:10:57,240
Speaker 1: up as they go along. It's like, y'all, y'll have

176
00:10:57,280 --> 00:11:00,200
Speaker 1: twelve movies like two TV shows I gotta watch to

177
00:11:00,200 --> 00:11:03,360
Speaker 1: make it all makes sense, Like, oh man, wait to

178
00:11:03,520 --> 00:11:07,000
Speaker 1: the new shows Sandal, Oh my god, what do you

179
00:11:07,080 --> 00:11:09,400
Speaker 1: see the storylines about that? Just his foot where it's like,

180
00:11:09,440 --> 00:11:11,960
Speaker 1: are we we got all kinds of threads that we're

181
00:11:12,160 --> 00:11:14,880
Speaker 1: going down. But yeah, I like Spider Man into the

182
00:11:14,920 --> 00:11:17,800
Speaker 1: Spider Verse. I thought that was cool. Have you seen that, right,

183
00:11:18,240 --> 00:11:21,000
Speaker 1: I like that I haven't seen that, So that one,

184
00:11:21,160 --> 00:11:23,800
Speaker 1: I feel like I'm hearing a lot from the low

185
00:11:23,880 --> 00:11:28,280
Speaker 1: key reactions about like the multiverse and the idea that

186
00:11:28,360 --> 00:11:32,760
Speaker 1: like all the Marvel different movies are part of like

187
00:11:32,880 --> 00:11:36,839
Speaker 1: some multiverse that's going to intersect and like that that

188
00:11:36,880 --> 00:11:41,600
Speaker 1: movie interacts with that in an interesting way. I'm starting

189
00:11:41,640 --> 00:11:46,200
Speaker 1: to get excited about the Marvel cinematic universe just from four,

190
00:11:46,360 --> 00:11:50,120
Speaker 1: my three year old, because he's like now real into

191
00:11:50,679 --> 00:11:53,240
Speaker 1: like all these characters even though he's like never all

192
00:11:53,280 --> 00:11:55,839
Speaker 1: he's seen is like pictures of them, and so I'm

193
00:11:55,880 --> 00:11:59,560
Speaker 1: just like imagining when he can like finally watch the movies,

194
00:11:59,640 --> 00:12:03,000
Speaker 1: like how how much it's going to make his brain

195
00:12:03,240 --> 00:12:06,480
Speaker 1: melt and leak out of his years? Yeah, Or he's

196
00:12:06,480 --> 00:12:11,000
Speaker 1: gonna be jumping off ship. Yeah he's a super because yeah,

197
00:12:11,160 --> 00:12:13,920
Speaker 1: me watching like a few superhero things, I had a

198
00:12:14,000 --> 00:12:16,760
Speaker 1: bad habit of jumping off of ship thinking I wouldn't

199
00:12:16,760 --> 00:12:18,800
Speaker 1: get hurt, like when I was four, but I would

200
00:12:18,800 --> 00:12:21,320
Speaker 1: try and put enough couch cushions below me to not

201
00:12:21,480 --> 00:12:25,800
Speaker 1: shatter my ankles completely, like the you know the versions

202
00:12:25,840 --> 00:12:28,360
Speaker 1: that we had like when I was a kid and

203
00:12:28,480 --> 00:12:33,280
Speaker 1: into superheroes were like a Hulk TV show and uh

204
00:12:33,400 --> 00:12:36,280
Speaker 1: and Batman the sixties TV show, and like I was

205
00:12:36,360 --> 00:12:38,200
Speaker 1: just I was into it. That was good enough for me.

206
00:12:38,679 --> 00:12:43,000
Speaker 1: The greatest American hero, which was like a joke, but

207
00:12:43,120 --> 00:12:46,720
Speaker 1: I I took it seriously. What is uh something you

208
00:12:46,760 --> 00:12:51,520
Speaker 1: think is underrated? Seriously? Police violence, man, police violence is

209
00:12:51,520 --> 00:12:54,679
Speaker 1: hella underrated. Just now, while I'm talking to you, Um,

210
00:12:54,679 --> 00:12:58,600
Speaker 1: I see that the Los Angeles Police Department has potentially

211
00:12:59,440 --> 00:13:01,679
Speaker 1: killed some one. They have just shot someone down the

212
00:13:01,720 --> 00:13:05,439
Speaker 1: street from my house. And I'm watching the police cars

213
00:13:05,480 --> 00:13:12,720
Speaker 1: go and the helicopters overhead filming this, and yeah, really

214
00:13:12,760 --> 00:13:16,359
Speaker 1: harsh in my vibe. But yeah, police violence is really underrated,

215
00:13:16,400 --> 00:13:19,160
Speaker 1: Like this is horrible. Someone like I can't believe that

216
00:13:19,240 --> 00:13:22,760
Speaker 1: just happened just now, jeez, just outside your window. Yeah,

217
00:13:23,679 --> 00:13:28,040
Speaker 1: oh my god, it's okay. Uh, like that all just

218
00:13:28,120 --> 00:13:30,800
Speaker 1: transpired in like the last couple of minutes. Yeah, while

219
00:13:30,840 --> 00:13:35,640
Speaker 1: we were asking about the Marvel Cinematic Universe. Uh huh okay,

220
00:13:35,679 --> 00:13:41,199
Speaker 1: well that's that would be properly underrated, uh, considering the

221
00:13:41,760 --> 00:13:44,800
Speaker 1: harsh reality that's out there, you know, as you navigate

222
00:13:44,880 --> 00:13:48,320
Speaker 1: this whole sort of ecosystem of you know, police gangs

223
00:13:48,360 --> 00:13:51,520
Speaker 1: and like sort of the mechanisms that are set up

224
00:13:51,559 --> 00:13:55,360
Speaker 1: to like obscure their involvement or activity. What do you think,

225
00:13:56,000 --> 00:13:58,000
Speaker 1: you know, what's the perspective. I'm sure like when you

226
00:13:58,040 --> 00:14:01,000
Speaker 1: go to these sort of junk its or press conferences,

227
00:14:01,040 --> 00:14:03,320
Speaker 1: when you're like next to maybe like people from like

228
00:14:03,440 --> 00:14:07,160
Speaker 1: Fox eleven or like kt l A or the local news,

229
00:14:07,720 --> 00:14:10,160
Speaker 1: do they do you think they have a semblance or

230
00:14:10,280 --> 00:14:13,440
Speaker 1: understanding of what's at stake or do you think sometimes

231
00:14:13,960 --> 00:14:16,560
Speaker 1: they're sort of as part of the media apparatus, willing

232
00:14:16,600 --> 00:14:18,920
Speaker 1: to turn a blind eye to sort of keep the

233
00:14:19,040 --> 00:14:23,560
Speaker 1: relationships going for the sake of like their reporting. Oh yeah,

234
00:14:23,560 --> 00:14:26,800
Speaker 1: I know that's what they're doing. You know, in my experience,

235
00:14:26,920 --> 00:14:30,840
Speaker 1: the average you know, television reporter doesn't have a clue

236
00:14:31,400 --> 00:14:35,280
Speaker 1: about what's going on in the city and the realities

237
00:14:35,360 --> 00:14:38,520
Speaker 1: that people are facing. And yeah, I mean that is

238
00:14:38,560 --> 00:14:41,240
Speaker 1: the thing. There are a lot of stories that most

239
00:14:41,360 --> 00:14:44,920
Speaker 1: mainstream outlets won't do because they don't want to damage

240
00:14:44,960 --> 00:14:50,200
Speaker 1: their access to different agencies, whether that be law enforcement,

241
00:14:50,560 --> 00:14:54,280
Speaker 1: a city council member, the mayor. There are a lot

242
00:14:54,280 --> 00:14:56,560
Speaker 1: of questions that they just won't to ask your stories

243
00:14:56,600 --> 00:14:59,160
Speaker 1: that they won't do because it's going to rock the boat.

244
00:14:59,440 --> 00:15:02,240
Speaker 1: And that's you know, one of the reasons that I

245
00:15:02,320 --> 00:15:05,920
Speaker 1: published my series at Knock because this this wasn't a

246
00:15:05,960 --> 00:15:10,800
Speaker 1: story that a lot of with more name recognition, Um,

247
00:15:10,840 --> 00:15:16,200
Speaker 1: they just weren't interested in doing something like this, yeah,

248
00:15:16,360 --> 00:15:18,160
Speaker 1: and like this sort of I guess the way that

249
00:15:18,200 --> 00:15:21,360
Speaker 1: the relationship there works is what that they'll the police

250
00:15:21,360 --> 00:15:24,800
Speaker 1: will give them sort of tidbits of information that they

251
00:15:24,800 --> 00:15:27,880
Speaker 1: can then run with stories or um. The police don't

252
00:15:27,920 --> 00:15:30,720
Speaker 1: really they don't really give they give the information that

253
00:15:30,760 --> 00:15:34,240
Speaker 1: they want to give. It's just about will you be

254
00:15:34,480 --> 00:15:37,240
Speaker 1: will you be invited to the press conference? Will you

255
00:15:37,280 --> 00:15:40,120
Speaker 1: be called on in question and answers? Are you going

256
00:15:40,160 --> 00:15:42,960
Speaker 1: to get a call back on your story? Are they

257
00:15:43,000 --> 00:15:46,720
Speaker 1: going to do the bare minimum right? And then for

258
00:15:46,920 --> 00:15:49,320
Speaker 1: the in exchange, they'll just be like, and we'll obscure

259
00:15:49,320 --> 00:15:52,760
Speaker 1: your crimes and act up to us about everything. So

260
00:15:52,800 --> 00:15:56,240
Speaker 1: it's not even really it's not even like an understandable transaction,

261
00:15:56,400 --> 00:15:58,600
Speaker 1: like well then they did scoop on they got a

262
00:15:58,600 --> 00:16:01,320
Speaker 1: scoop on this thing. It's just are like, we won't

263
00:16:01,320 --> 00:16:03,440
Speaker 1: call on you, and that's it. And that's enough for

264
00:16:03,520 --> 00:16:05,360
Speaker 1: them to Because I mean, when you're at these things,

265
00:16:05,840 --> 00:16:09,800
Speaker 1: are you, as someone who has completely gone against the

266
00:16:09,920 --> 00:16:12,640
Speaker 1: grain in terms of how more mainstream reporting about this

267
00:16:12,680 --> 00:16:15,320
Speaker 1: stuff has been. Are you finding it that you'll never

268
00:16:15,400 --> 00:16:18,080
Speaker 1: get called on, that you have to sort of aggressively

269
00:16:19,240 --> 00:16:22,000
Speaker 1: find your opportunities to to ask a question, or how

270
00:16:22,040 --> 00:16:25,120
Speaker 1: does that work for you in terms of navigating this environment. Well,

271
00:16:25,120 --> 00:16:27,360
Speaker 1: the last press conference that I had tended in person,

272
00:16:27,440 --> 00:16:30,720
Speaker 1: I was almost arrested. I was detained for fifteen minutes

273
00:16:30,840 --> 00:16:35,040
Speaker 1: by a group of three shareff's deputies who refused to

274
00:16:35,120 --> 00:16:39,320
Speaker 1: let me back into the press conference until another member

275
00:16:39,400 --> 00:16:42,200
Speaker 1: of the scrum who I had been standing with, a

276
00:16:42,240 --> 00:16:45,240
Speaker 1: white guy, vouched for me, and then they were willing

277
00:16:45,680 --> 00:16:50,000
Speaker 1: to listen to what I was saying. So I I

278
00:16:50,040 --> 00:16:52,560
Speaker 1: don't attend in person anymore. When I do have to

279
00:16:52,600 --> 00:16:54,360
Speaker 1: go into the field to work, I have to bring

280
00:16:54,400 --> 00:16:59,680
Speaker 1: a bodyguard now, which it's really weird because I'm a reporter. Jesus,

281
00:17:00,200 --> 00:17:04,400
Speaker 1: I don't I think I should have a bodyguard. But

282
00:17:04,480 --> 00:17:06,639
Speaker 1: that's just sort of the reality of it. It's not

283
00:17:06,680 --> 00:17:09,040
Speaker 1: that I'm not allowed to ask questions, It's that I'm

284
00:17:09,040 --> 00:17:17,080
Speaker 1: physically prevented and potentially even you know, facing criminal prosecution

285
00:17:17,200 --> 00:17:20,560
Speaker 1: for trying to do my job, and what would they

286
00:17:20,600 --> 00:17:25,680
Speaker 1: allege you're doing that's criminal? Essentially. The person that was

287
00:17:25,720 --> 00:17:28,760
Speaker 1: also detained and later arrested was told he was trespassing.

288
00:17:28,800 --> 00:17:31,560
Speaker 1: But again, this is a press conference in a public

289
00:17:31,600 --> 00:17:36,640
Speaker 1: building where I had RSVPD and was in contact the organizers,

290
00:17:36,720 --> 00:17:42,320
Speaker 1: So it it doesn't make these allegation to then sort

291
00:17:42,320 --> 00:17:45,359
Speaker 1: of justify entertainment, but then later won't be an arrest

292
00:17:45,560 --> 00:17:49,040
Speaker 1: because that's just sort of foul. They'll not go fully

293
00:17:49,040 --> 00:17:53,880
Speaker 1: a foul of the law or whatever the law is, right, Yeah,

294
00:17:53,960 --> 00:17:59,720
Speaker 1: I mean and they Yeah, it just seems like I

295
00:17:59,760 --> 00:18:03,280
Speaker 1: don't even when we're talking about the local local news,

296
00:18:03,280 --> 00:18:08,199
Speaker 1: like just just having to interact with them on a

297
00:18:08,200 --> 00:18:11,159
Speaker 1: regular basis, you know, because they're like any time they

298
00:18:11,160 --> 00:18:13,679
Speaker 1: show up to a crime scene, they're gonna interact with

299
00:18:13,840 --> 00:18:16,560
Speaker 1: probably the same like handful of police like every once

300
00:18:16,600 --> 00:18:20,960
Speaker 1: in a while, and those are people who are legally

301
00:18:21,000 --> 00:18:25,119
Speaker 1: allowed to shoot you like this. They like that based

302
00:18:25,160 --> 00:18:27,919
Speaker 1: on your reporting, like that's all they need is the

303
00:18:27,960 --> 00:18:32,199
Speaker 1: flimsiest like explanation for for what went down, And like

304
00:18:32,280 --> 00:18:35,560
Speaker 1: it's just it's a very terrifying situation to be in

305
00:18:35,640 --> 00:18:40,560
Speaker 1: to like try and talk about the police openly in

306
00:18:40,560 --> 00:18:43,600
Speaker 1: in Los Angeles, are really in any community with the

307
00:18:43,680 --> 00:18:50,440
Speaker 1: militarized and like very you know, emboldened police police force. Yeah, Ship, Well,

308
00:18:50,800 --> 00:18:54,119
Speaker 1: amazing what you're doing and the bravery it takes and

309
00:18:54,520 --> 00:18:57,080
Speaker 1: couldn't be more thankful for what you do it for

310
00:18:57,119 --> 00:18:59,480
Speaker 1: this community and I think just the country in general,

311
00:18:59,480 --> 00:19:02,959
Speaker 1: because this is not just l A obviously. All right,

312
00:19:03,040 --> 00:19:05,879
Speaker 1: let's take a quick break and we'll come back and

313
00:19:06,640 --> 00:19:09,359
Speaker 1: talk a little bit more about l A s D

314
00:19:09,560 --> 00:19:24,280
Speaker 1: gangs and we're back. So, the last time you were

315
00:19:24,320 --> 00:19:26,280
Speaker 1: on we kind of you. I think it was the

316
00:19:26,400 --> 00:19:32,560
Speaker 1: day that your series of reports published a traditional violence.

317
00:19:32,680 --> 00:19:35,280
Speaker 1: But you know, we we were talking right before we

318
00:19:35,320 --> 00:19:39,760
Speaker 1: started recording about this most recent sort of use of

319
00:19:39,760 --> 00:19:44,639
Speaker 1: double speak where aut Villaineueva is now saying that there

320
00:19:44,640 --> 00:19:48,479
Speaker 1: there are clicks but not gangs, Like what is that

321
00:19:48,760 --> 00:19:52,439
Speaker 1: a concerted effort? Like how how they're talking about this?

322
00:19:52,600 --> 00:19:54,800
Speaker 1: Like how how are they like just dealing with the

323
00:19:54,840 --> 00:20:00,160
Speaker 1: fact that there behavior has been so overt and out

324
00:20:00,160 --> 00:20:04,320
Speaker 1: in the open and now somebody's just kind of laying

325
00:20:04,320 --> 00:20:06,960
Speaker 1: it out for people to see. Well, they don't really

326
00:20:07,760 --> 00:20:11,200
Speaker 1: acknowledge my reporting by name, but what they do say

327
00:20:11,560 --> 00:20:19,040
Speaker 1: is that people are selling the notion of gangs to

328
00:20:19,119 --> 00:20:23,440
Speaker 1: make a name for themselves or push an agenda. Vienueva

329
00:20:23,480 --> 00:20:26,879
Speaker 1: has said both that he is the first person to

330
00:20:26,920 --> 00:20:31,600
Speaker 1: do anything about deputy gangs, and yet deputy gangs don't exist,

331
00:20:32,480 --> 00:20:36,760
Speaker 1: and yet they exist in every police department, and that

332
00:20:36,800 --> 00:20:41,959
Speaker 1: they're nothing to fear, so, in short, a bunch of

333
00:20:42,600 --> 00:20:47,400
Speaker 1: uh nonsense, right, And is that like in for some

334
00:20:47,440 --> 00:20:50,159
Speaker 1: way to sort of acknowledge like, Okay, we can't we

335
00:20:50,200 --> 00:20:53,919
Speaker 1: can't say no that it's all nonsense, because it is.

336
00:20:54,119 --> 00:20:56,600
Speaker 1: There's real reporting about it. So the way they sort

337
00:20:56,600 --> 00:20:59,520
Speaker 1: of navigate that is just to try and redefine or

338
00:20:59,520 --> 00:21:03,160
Speaker 1: recontiret extualized, like what even a gang is Like they're

339
00:21:03,200 --> 00:21:07,480
Speaker 1: just friends at the station that have a hand symbol

340
00:21:07,800 --> 00:21:13,040
Speaker 1: and iconography like a gang. But it's just the loose

341
00:21:13,119 --> 00:21:17,439
Speaker 1: cohort of organized armed men who like I saw like

342
00:21:17,480 --> 00:21:20,159
Speaker 1: a picture that you posted about a patch that was

343
00:21:20,200 --> 00:21:22,840
Speaker 1: being sold that said like our gang is bigger than

344
00:21:22,880 --> 00:21:26,159
Speaker 1: yours or something like that. And I've also seen in

345
00:21:26,200 --> 00:21:27,840
Speaker 1: like some of the and and a lot of your

346
00:21:28,320 --> 00:21:30,560
Speaker 1: posts on social media and things like where you've you've

347
00:21:31,160 --> 00:21:34,080
Speaker 1: interacted with somebody who's clearly wearing like a pin that

348
00:21:34,160 --> 00:21:37,639
Speaker 1: is showing that they're affiliated and that in those symbol

349
00:21:37,680 --> 00:21:39,600
Speaker 1: and like in those instances, is that with Vienueva was

350
00:21:39,640 --> 00:21:44,080
Speaker 1: trying to say, It's like, yeah, that's just like a clique, right, Yeah,

351
00:21:44,119 --> 00:21:48,600
Speaker 1: it's just the symbol. It's just a fun thing for

352
00:21:48,640 --> 00:21:52,119
Speaker 1: our deputies, nothing to worry about, nothing to worry about.

353
00:21:52,800 --> 00:21:56,480
Speaker 1: Has has that like forced has that created more activity

354
00:21:56,680 --> 00:21:59,000
Speaker 1: like with these clicks or do you think on some

355
00:21:59,080 --> 00:22:02,120
Speaker 1: way of the sort of spotlight that is being put

356
00:22:02,119 --> 00:22:05,920
Speaker 1: on them through the History of Violence series is like

357
00:22:06,840 --> 00:22:11,919
Speaker 1: maybe are they being less over more covert or it's no,

358
00:22:12,160 --> 00:22:17,480
Speaker 1: just no offense. They don't give a can I say,

359
00:22:18,200 --> 00:22:21,040
Speaker 1: I'm sorry tradition of violence not history of on? Sorry?

360
00:22:21,359 --> 00:22:23,360
Speaker 1: They yeah, I mean they truly don't give a funk

361
00:22:23,440 --> 00:22:26,200
Speaker 1: what I report on. They're gonna keep doing what they're doing,

362
00:22:26,320 --> 00:22:30,400
Speaker 1: and I mean they're I believe their belief is that

363
00:22:30,400 --> 00:22:32,879
Speaker 1: no one is going to stop them. I mean, Vinueva

364
00:22:32,920 --> 00:22:37,120
Speaker 1: has defied subpoena after subpoena, He's gone after the county CEO,

365
00:22:37,680 --> 00:22:40,520
Speaker 1: he's gone after the Board of Supervisors twice. Now saying

366
00:22:40,560 --> 00:22:44,240
Speaker 1: that they need to be beaten. He said, very explicitly,

367
00:22:44,400 --> 00:22:46,600
Speaker 1: the board of supervisors needs to be taken to a

368
00:22:46,640 --> 00:22:49,159
Speaker 1: shed and beaten until they do their job as he

369
00:22:49,240 --> 00:22:53,000
Speaker 1: sees fit. He's gone after me, He's gone after journalist

370
00:22:53,080 --> 00:22:56,960
Speaker 1: by name at the Los Angeles Times. And he does

371
00:22:57,000 --> 00:23:00,880
Speaker 1: all of this. He he invaded the Venice boardwalk, which

372
00:23:00,920 --> 00:23:03,960
Speaker 1: is not his jurisdiction. He does all of this and

373
00:23:04,040 --> 00:23:06,520
Speaker 1: no one stops him. There is no one that is

374
00:23:06,600 --> 00:23:09,480
Speaker 1: saying you cannot do this, and here are the consequences.

375
00:23:09,600 --> 00:23:13,080
Speaker 1: That hasn't happened yet. So he's been able to transform

376
00:23:13,160 --> 00:23:18,160
Speaker 1: himself into probably the most powerful political person in Los

377
00:23:18,200 --> 00:23:20,760
Speaker 1: Angeles County just by the virtue of the fact that

378
00:23:20,800 --> 00:23:23,240
Speaker 1: the powers that do exist to check him have not

379
00:23:23,359 --> 00:23:28,800
Speaker 1: taken any action. Hm. Right, And the board of supervisors

380
00:23:28,800 --> 00:23:34,120
Speaker 1: are all women, right, correct, really tough guy attitude. So

381
00:23:34,160 --> 00:23:36,679
Speaker 1: he's saying a group of five women need to be

382
00:23:36,720 --> 00:23:39,760
Speaker 1: taken behind the shed and beaten until they do their job.

383
00:23:39,840 --> 00:23:44,600
Speaker 1: And that's the sheriff and he and I'll just say,

384
00:23:44,680 --> 00:23:47,080
Speaker 1: all the people that he's gone after in these press

385
00:23:47,080 --> 00:23:50,320
Speaker 1: conferences are our women. The reporters at the l A

386
00:23:50,400 --> 00:23:52,960
Speaker 1: Times that he's talking about, there are women. I am

387
00:23:53,000 --> 00:23:57,360
Speaker 1: a woman, the board of supervisors or women like he's

388
00:23:57,400 --> 00:24:01,520
Speaker 1: advocated for violence against women again and and again and again.

389
00:24:01,560 --> 00:24:05,960
Speaker 1: The county, the county ceo a woman, and you know,

390
00:24:06,080 --> 00:24:09,679
Speaker 1: no one there are no consequences to that. And I

391
00:24:09,720 --> 00:24:13,440
Speaker 1: know recently to like the county Democrats were calling for

392
00:24:13,560 --> 00:24:16,440
Speaker 1: him to resign, I mean outside of them, just sort

393
00:24:16,440 --> 00:24:19,160
Speaker 1: of saying like that's what we wish. Is there anything

394
00:24:19,320 --> 00:24:21,119
Speaker 1: sort of beyond that that could have any sort of

395
00:24:21,160 --> 00:24:23,240
Speaker 1: material or fact or It's just sort of more of

396
00:24:23,240 --> 00:24:25,760
Speaker 1: a show of sort of where they how they view

397
00:24:26,040 --> 00:24:29,960
Speaker 1: how he's handling his position. It's it's largely a gesture,

398
00:24:30,119 --> 00:24:32,720
Speaker 1: but it also implies that they will not be giving

399
00:24:32,800 --> 00:24:37,080
Speaker 1: him the endorsement. In twenties two, it's believed that Vienueva

400
00:24:37,200 --> 00:24:42,679
Speaker 1: was able to be victorious in the prior election because

401
00:24:42,680 --> 00:24:45,520
Speaker 1: he did have the co sign of the Democrats of

402
00:24:45,600 --> 00:24:48,720
Speaker 1: Los Angeles County as well as a number of local

403
00:24:48,760 --> 00:24:51,879
Speaker 1: Democratic clubs. He did a lot of campaigning with them,

404
00:24:52,240 --> 00:24:55,960
Speaker 1: spoke at a lot of their meetings, and a lot

405
00:24:56,000 --> 00:24:58,040
Speaker 1: of people have said that it was that action that

406
00:24:58,520 --> 00:25:02,600
Speaker 1: convinced them to vote for him. And I think without

407
00:25:03,040 --> 00:25:05,800
Speaker 1: um that wind in his sales. Let's go around his

408
00:25:05,920 --> 00:25:08,680
Speaker 1: numbers and the polls are going to be significantly down.

409
00:25:09,119 --> 00:25:13,280
Speaker 1: How many people vote in like it? I guess two

410
00:25:13,400 --> 00:25:16,920
Speaker 1: is not necessarily an off year election? But is it?

411
00:25:17,440 --> 00:25:21,400
Speaker 1: Like how popular an election is that? Is that one

412
00:25:21,440 --> 00:25:25,239
Speaker 1: where like just by getting a handful of like you know,

413
00:25:25,359 --> 00:25:28,200
Speaker 1: his supporters out he can win? Or do you are

414
00:25:28,200 --> 00:25:30,960
Speaker 1: you thinking that this is actually gonna I mean, I

415
00:25:30,960 --> 00:25:33,600
Speaker 1: guess the first question, which we already talked about, is

416
00:25:33,640 --> 00:25:37,159
Speaker 1: like what are the alternatives? But you know, having somebody,

417
00:25:37,160 --> 00:25:41,360
Speaker 1: I guess with entrenched power is probably not a good thing.

418
00:25:41,680 --> 00:25:44,159
Speaker 1: How important do you think it is to like have

419
00:25:44,359 --> 00:25:49,040
Speaker 1: him defeated and out of office? Well, I think that

420
00:25:49,800 --> 00:25:52,439
Speaker 1: he has shown time and time again that he is

421
00:25:52,520 --> 00:25:58,439
Speaker 1: not willing to comply with the law. And yeah, I

422
00:25:58,480 --> 00:26:02,399
Speaker 1: mean I personally speaking, I mean I won't be voting

423
00:26:02,600 --> 00:26:07,600
Speaker 1: for Viennueva. Yeah is there? I mean, And I know

424
00:26:07,600 --> 00:26:09,919
Speaker 1: how you said, like the for the people who have

425
00:26:10,119 --> 00:26:14,520
Speaker 1: the ability to sort of check his power, that they're not.

426
00:26:14,680 --> 00:26:18,280
Speaker 1: I mean what you know obviously based on your understanding

427
00:26:18,280 --> 00:26:20,719
Speaker 1: of the situation and the dynamics that play, like what

428
00:26:20,880 --> 00:26:23,960
Speaker 1: should be happening if, for example, like just to give

429
00:26:24,000 --> 00:26:28,280
Speaker 1: the people of l a County, the imagination on what

430
00:26:28,280 --> 00:26:31,399
Speaker 1: what could be done or should be done? Um, what

431
00:26:31,440 --> 00:26:33,879
Speaker 1: would you say? Those things are well, I mean, the

432
00:26:33,880 --> 00:26:37,440
Speaker 1: Board of Supervisors has an incredible amount of power here

433
00:26:37,440 --> 00:26:41,800
Speaker 1: in Los Angeles County. Their nickname is actually the Five Queens,

434
00:26:42,600 --> 00:26:47,720
Speaker 1: because you know, it's really the county functions because of

435
00:26:47,800 --> 00:26:52,440
Speaker 1: them and the work that they do. They hold an incredible,

436
00:26:52,560 --> 00:26:55,880
Speaker 1: incredible amount of power in this county. And I think,

437
00:26:55,880 --> 00:26:59,040
Speaker 1: you know, it would be very easy to open an

438
00:26:59,040 --> 00:27:06,320
Speaker 1: investigation into just the just the cases that are on

439
00:27:06,359 --> 00:27:09,800
Speaker 1: a list that the Board of Supervisors itself actually keeps.

440
00:27:09,880 --> 00:27:14,000
Speaker 1: That was the foundation of my series. You know, they

441
00:27:14,119 --> 00:27:16,360
Speaker 1: keep that list. You know, it would be very easy

442
00:27:16,440 --> 00:27:20,040
Speaker 1: to open an investigation into the deputies that are on

443
00:27:20,119 --> 00:27:23,920
Speaker 1: that list and to and into the gangs. That would

444
00:27:23,920 --> 00:27:26,320
Speaker 1: be a great first stuff. I think that hasn't been

445
00:27:26,320 --> 00:27:29,040
Speaker 1: done yet. And and like sort of the thing that

446
00:27:29,520 --> 00:27:33,080
Speaker 1: prevents that is I'd imagine some level of fear or

447
00:27:33,119 --> 00:27:37,720
Speaker 1: intimidation that is coming from law enforcement or that the

448
00:27:37,760 --> 00:27:40,679
Speaker 1: feeling that they wouldn't be protected or or you know,

449
00:27:40,720 --> 00:27:43,320
Speaker 1: I mean like what is sort of for them the

450
00:27:44,760 --> 00:27:47,280
Speaker 1: what makes that a situation they don't want to enter.

451
00:27:47,320 --> 00:27:49,680
Speaker 1: Aside from obviously rocking the boat, because I think most

452
00:27:49,720 --> 00:27:52,239
Speaker 1: people don't would rather just keep the status quo, at

453
00:27:52,320 --> 00:27:54,720
Speaker 1: least for people who are holding very high office these

454
00:27:54,800 --> 00:27:57,000
Speaker 1: days in this country. But is that sort of the

455
00:27:57,040 --> 00:28:00,479
Speaker 1: main force that's keep preventing those kinds of investigations is happening?

456
00:28:00,880 --> 00:28:06,560
Speaker 1: You know, I couldn't tell you. I think that that

457
00:28:06,640 --> 00:28:09,960
Speaker 1: could be part of it. Several several members of the

458
00:28:09,960 --> 00:28:12,840
Speaker 1: Board of Supervisors have sat on the board for a

459
00:28:12,960 --> 00:28:16,159
Speaker 1: number of years before this and none of this stuff

460
00:28:16,200 --> 00:28:17,600
Speaker 1: was done. So yeah, I mean, I think it could

461
00:28:17,640 --> 00:28:22,879
Speaker 1: be complacency to a certain extent. And you know, gosh,

462
00:28:22,880 --> 00:28:26,040
Speaker 1: I think government just moves like incredibly slowly like most

463
00:28:26,040 --> 00:28:29,119
Speaker 1: of the time, right, which is which is unfortunate because

464
00:28:29,560 --> 00:28:34,480
Speaker 1: it doesn't really have to right right. Yeah, So then yeah,

465
00:28:34,480 --> 00:28:38,160
Speaker 1: we need to be looking at people who are willing

466
00:28:38,200 --> 00:28:41,880
Speaker 1: to actually challenge the status quo and do that in

467
00:28:41,880 --> 00:28:44,640
Speaker 1: a way that is like in pursuit of was actually justice,

468
00:28:44,760 --> 00:28:49,360
Speaker 1: rather than maintaining office for as many years as possible. Right.

469
00:28:49,600 --> 00:28:52,600
Speaker 1: It feels like it's the same pattern at every level

470
00:28:52,920 --> 00:28:55,040
Speaker 1: when it comes to how like a lot of legislators

471
00:28:55,080 --> 00:28:58,560
Speaker 1: think for people who haven't read the series or didn't

472
00:28:58,560 --> 00:29:01,320
Speaker 1: listen to our first episod where we kind of covered

473
00:29:01,880 --> 00:29:06,520
Speaker 1: just sort of a summary of what the gangs are like.

474
00:29:07,280 --> 00:29:11,080
Speaker 1: So just you know, Vienueva called them clicks. So you

475
00:29:11,120 --> 00:29:14,280
Speaker 1: know how like you and your pals in high school

476
00:29:14,480 --> 00:29:16,320
Speaker 1: or like the mean girls in your high school all

477
00:29:16,360 --> 00:29:21,240
Speaker 1: got matching skeleton tattoos with Nazi helmets. When you know

478
00:29:21,520 --> 00:29:24,760
Speaker 1: you remember that, like how it because you earned them

479
00:29:24,840 --> 00:29:28,040
Speaker 1: after killing a civilian. Yeah, when you when you got

480
00:29:28,080 --> 00:29:31,840
Speaker 1: your three dots on your hand and your spider Web album. Right,

481
00:29:31,960 --> 00:29:34,960
Speaker 1: So that's that's the sort of clicks that we're talking

482
00:29:34,960 --> 00:29:40,520
Speaker 1: about here, that where they reward people with better hours

483
00:29:40,960 --> 00:29:45,120
Speaker 1: for killing as civilian. Yeah, series is anything else is

484
00:29:45,200 --> 00:29:47,920
Speaker 1: sort of updating or anything else you want to sort

485
00:29:47,920 --> 00:29:50,560
Speaker 1: of put on everyone's radar off things just to be

486
00:29:50,600 --> 00:29:53,400
Speaker 1: aware over to to be mindful of. I would just

487
00:29:53,440 --> 00:29:55,440
Speaker 1: say that everyone, you know, whether or not you live

488
00:29:55,440 --> 00:29:59,240
Speaker 1: in Los Angeles County, the Sheriff's department race is you know,

489
00:29:59,320 --> 00:30:03,720
Speaker 1: incredibly relevant. Los Angeles County is the largest sheriff's department

490
00:30:03,760 --> 00:30:07,960
Speaker 1: in the United States, and um, like other things we

491
00:30:08,000 --> 00:30:10,920
Speaker 1: do here in Los Angeles are our policies that come

492
00:30:11,000 --> 00:30:14,960
Speaker 1: down largely UM inform and dictate policies that could be

493
00:30:15,000 --> 00:30:17,160
Speaker 1: popping up in your backyard if you don't live here.

494
00:30:17,600 --> 00:30:21,160
Speaker 1: So I encourage everyone to, you know, UM, keep up

495
00:30:21,200 --> 00:30:24,080
Speaker 1: with the race on what's going on. UM, educate yourself

496
00:30:24,080 --> 00:30:27,760
Speaker 1: about the candidates. I myself and working on stories about

497
00:30:27,840 --> 00:30:31,680
Speaker 1: all of the candidates and gathering information on them for people.

498
00:30:32,200 --> 00:30:37,360
Speaker 1: So yeah, just stay tuned, and please stay informed and

499
00:30:37,520 --> 00:30:40,080
Speaker 1: get out and vote when it's time. Just go go

500
00:30:40,280 --> 00:30:45,080
Speaker 1: follow surist at Cerise castle c E r I s

501
00:30:45,120 --> 00:30:48,880
Speaker 1: E c I s t l E on Twitter and

502
00:30:48,920 --> 00:30:53,480
Speaker 1: follow all her reporting. It's important. It's fucking fascinating and

503
00:30:53,480 --> 00:30:57,160
Speaker 1: horrifying all at the same time. All right, let's talk

504
00:30:57,480 --> 00:31:03,640
Speaker 1: about Haiti. So the panic has revealed that some of

505
00:31:03,880 --> 00:31:06,360
Speaker 1: the murder squad I think the quote was a small

506
00:31:06,440 --> 00:31:10,920
Speaker 1: number of the assassins that killed the Haitian president and

507
00:31:11,000 --> 00:31:14,360
Speaker 1: attempted to kill his wife in their home were previously

508
00:31:14,520 --> 00:31:20,600
Speaker 1: trained rather US military. And this is not surprising. It

509
00:31:20,640 --> 00:31:24,560
Speaker 1: doesn't mean the US was involved in like planning this

510
00:31:24,680 --> 00:31:30,280
Speaker 1: particular assassination, but it does this particular assassination exactly. It

511
00:31:30,320 --> 00:31:33,560
Speaker 1: does reveal the people that do it. Maybe it's we

512
00:31:33,720 --> 00:31:37,280
Speaker 1: took a long game for d thing yeah, exactly, it does. Like,

513
00:31:37,320 --> 00:31:43,080
Speaker 1: I mean, this is a consequence of US policy that

514
00:31:43,160 --> 00:31:46,680
Speaker 1: the mainstream media doesn't like to acknowledge that. You know,

515
00:31:46,800 --> 00:31:51,640
Speaker 1: for decades, the US has been training killers in South

516
00:31:51,680 --> 00:31:54,080
Speaker 1: and Central America and around the world who they think

517
00:31:54,120 --> 00:31:59,560
Speaker 1: will help them destabilize a country where they need regime

518
00:31:59,680 --> 00:32:05,360
Speaker 1: chain or might need regime change, and yeah, just generally

519
00:32:05,440 --> 00:32:11,080
Speaker 1: like contributing chaos and violence and you know, danger into

520
00:32:11,080 --> 00:32:13,720
Speaker 1: the world. Well, it a great way to fight the

521
00:32:13,760 --> 00:32:17,720
Speaker 1: Cold War when communism was gaining any kind of traction

522
00:32:17,800 --> 00:32:21,920
Speaker 1: and central South America. It's like, okay, when then we

523
00:32:22,000 --> 00:32:25,680
Speaker 1: need to create a a place to show people the

524
00:32:25,840 --> 00:32:30,920
Speaker 1: skills of torture, interrogation, assassination, and we'll call it the

525
00:32:30,960 --> 00:32:34,840
Speaker 1: School of the America's doesn't that that sound nice? And

526
00:32:34,880 --> 00:32:37,680
Speaker 1: everyone can come to this school and we'll show you

527
00:32:37,720 --> 00:32:40,280
Speaker 1: how to do all the nasty things that we've been

528
00:32:40,320 --> 00:32:43,520
Speaker 1: perfecting over the last couple of decades. And then again

529
00:32:43,640 --> 00:32:46,320
Speaker 1: we talked about it previously in another episode, but they

530
00:32:46,360 --> 00:32:49,080
Speaker 1: eventually had to change their name to the Western Hemisphere

531
00:32:49,120 --> 00:32:54,040
Speaker 1: Institute of Security Cooperation because they need a bit of

532
00:32:54,040 --> 00:32:56,000
Speaker 1: a rebrand because everyone's like, isn't that the place where

533
00:32:56,040 --> 00:32:59,040
Speaker 1: y'all train assassins and like hit squads. And you know

534
00:32:59,080 --> 00:33:00,760
Speaker 1: when we talk, we talk aked about this and how

535
00:33:00,760 --> 00:33:03,640
Speaker 1: it relates to you know, immigration and then the flow

536
00:33:03,680 --> 00:33:08,680
Speaker 1: of people from places like Belize or Umnduras or Guatemalel Salvador,

537
00:33:08,800 --> 00:33:12,320
Speaker 1: and you can draw lines to people who went alumni

538
00:33:12,320 --> 00:33:15,600
Speaker 1: of the School of the Americas and the destabilization that

539
00:33:15,600 --> 00:33:17,800
Speaker 1: that's caused in the region and why people have to

540
00:33:17,840 --> 00:33:20,600
Speaker 1: flee these countries. But now it's just the Institute for

541
00:33:20,640 --> 00:33:24,840
Speaker 1: Security Cooperation, So nothing to see. Yeah, And I mean

542
00:33:25,760 --> 00:33:28,480
Speaker 1: this is most of the major wars of the past

543
00:33:28,520 --> 00:33:32,600
Speaker 1: twenty years have been at least partially fought on both

544
00:33:32,600 --> 00:33:36,640
Speaker 1: sides by like privately trained and organized groups who kill

545
00:33:36,760 --> 00:33:40,800
Speaker 1: people for a living. Like and the fact that that's

546
00:33:40,840 --> 00:33:45,240
Speaker 1: out there, these like private armies that are just available

547
00:33:46,120 --> 00:33:51,760
Speaker 1: to work for the highest bidder, it just creates, you know,

548
00:33:52,040 --> 00:33:56,960
Speaker 1: it suggests a future where the rich not only are

549
00:33:57,080 --> 00:34:00,080
Speaker 1: able to decide if they want to leave the plan it,

550
00:34:00,240 --> 00:34:04,680
Speaker 1: but also you know, can create their own political realities

551
00:34:04,840 --> 00:34:08,799
Speaker 1: just based on how much money they have and if

552
00:34:08,840 --> 00:34:14,359
Speaker 1: they're willing to hire the best chechens to knock over

553
00:34:14,560 --> 00:34:17,799
Speaker 1: whatever political system that they want to knock over, and

554
00:34:18,360 --> 00:34:20,759
Speaker 1: I don't know, it's it just feels like it's a

555
00:34:20,760 --> 00:34:25,360
Speaker 1: a very bleak future. Where like the the article about

556
00:34:25,400 --> 00:34:28,839
Speaker 1: the specifically says like and there's nothing illegal about it.

557
00:34:28,960 --> 00:34:32,600
Speaker 1: So it's like, well maybe maybe there should be guys,

558
00:34:32,760 --> 00:34:38,120
Speaker 1: maybe we love that refrain in this kind. Well it's

559
00:34:38,160 --> 00:34:41,560
Speaker 1: not illegal, show me the law. It's like, well, yeah,

560
00:34:41,600 --> 00:34:43,640
Speaker 1: it was set up so you could say this, you

561
00:34:43,760 --> 00:34:47,239
Speaker 1: fucking creep. That's why we need to address it. I

562
00:34:47,239 --> 00:34:49,399
Speaker 1: don't know. I'm not dodging my taxes. Is the way

563
00:34:49,400 --> 00:34:51,879
Speaker 1: the taxes are, so I'm not doing anything Like yeah, right,

564
00:34:51,920 --> 00:34:55,080
Speaker 1: we get that, but objectively this is fucked and we

565
00:34:55,120 --> 00:34:57,520
Speaker 1: have to change it. Wait, so like it's not what

566
00:34:57,640 --> 00:34:59,680
Speaker 1: is the law that they're not breaking exactly? Like you

567
00:34:59,719 --> 00:35:03,839
Speaker 1: can't hire a bunch of organized armed people to have

568
00:35:03,960 --> 00:35:09,400
Speaker 1: a Yeah, you know, the most important thing is corporations

569
00:35:09,400 --> 00:35:12,640
Speaker 1: and the rights of corporations. Uh, and so you know,

570
00:35:12,680 --> 00:35:15,960
Speaker 1: a corporation has to be able to hire you know,

571
00:35:16,320 --> 00:35:22,280
Speaker 1: retired Colombian commandos who and retirement ages like forty there,

572
00:35:22,480 --> 00:35:28,279
Speaker 1: So there you know, able to just create corporations where

573
00:35:28,320 --> 00:35:32,600
Speaker 1: the explicit function or at least implicit function, is to

574
00:35:33,200 --> 00:35:37,800
Speaker 1: have trained killers who can do your will, right right, Okay,

575
00:35:37,800 --> 00:35:41,680
Speaker 1: we're talking about yeah, just creating a mercenary company, mercenary LLC.

576
00:35:41,840 --> 00:35:44,879
Speaker 1: Yeah yeah, great, great, great, Yeah, that's fine. Just don't

577
00:35:44,920 --> 00:35:49,359
Speaker 1: have matching tattoos. Live below the poverty line. That's when

578
00:35:49,360 --> 00:35:52,880
Speaker 1: it ventures into illegal territory. If you're making under a

579
00:35:52,920 --> 00:35:57,799
Speaker 1: certain amount of money, that's when it becomes illegal. Quick, quick,

580
00:35:57,880 --> 00:36:00,200
Speaker 1: rorschach test. What do you see here? Do you see

581
00:36:00,680 --> 00:36:05,520
Speaker 1: an impoverished worker being exploited by a capitalist class or

582
00:36:05,719 --> 00:36:08,719
Speaker 1: do you see uh, fun guys in army suits doing

583
00:36:08,840 --> 00:36:12,200
Speaker 1: cool stuff against our enemies. It's like if if you're

584
00:36:12,200 --> 00:36:15,799
Speaker 1: fighting for the corporation, then it's okay. But again, it

585
00:36:15,840 --> 00:36:18,880
Speaker 1: seems like with this one, especially like in this instance,

586
00:36:19,200 --> 00:36:21,560
Speaker 1: this there was like there's a lot of connection to

587
00:36:22,000 --> 00:36:24,160
Speaker 1: people in the United States, aren't there, Like, wasn't there

588
00:36:24,160 --> 00:36:27,359
Speaker 1: someone who was bankrolling that, who was coming from the

589
00:36:27,360 --> 00:36:32,040
Speaker 1: the US? Yeah? Doctor from who? Yeah, doctor in Florida.

590
00:36:32,080 --> 00:36:35,760
Speaker 1: Of course, there's always the Florida connection, always a Florida doctor.

591
00:36:36,040 --> 00:36:40,000
Speaker 1: But they think that he maybe may have been the

592
00:36:41,040 --> 00:36:45,000
Speaker 1: sort of providing the plan and the impetus in the

593
00:36:45,040 --> 00:36:48,400
Speaker 1: first place, Like his plan was he was going to

594
00:36:48,440 --> 00:36:51,759
Speaker 1: insert himself as the president of Haiti, if if his

595
00:36:51,800 --> 00:36:55,960
Speaker 1: plan had succeeded and now he's currently in custody. But

596
00:36:56,080 --> 00:36:59,560
Speaker 1: I just like going back to just the broader implications

597
00:36:59,640 --> 00:37:03,200
Speaker 1: of this sort of thing, Like we just had the

598
00:37:03,360 --> 00:37:08,000
Speaker 1: January six insurrection that was you know, based on like

599
00:37:08,320 --> 00:37:12,440
Speaker 1: who decided to organize in a Facebook group based on

600
00:37:12,640 --> 00:37:17,640
Speaker 1: like sort of you know, half hearted like wink nudge

601
00:37:18,040 --> 00:37:21,880
Speaker 1: commands from the president who was still like being monitored.

602
00:37:21,920 --> 00:37:27,239
Speaker 1: But like imagine like if he had hired trained like

603
00:37:27,680 --> 00:37:32,239
Speaker 1: Chechens and Colombian mercenaries to do that, like what like

604
00:37:32,600 --> 00:37:36,880
Speaker 1: we would be in a whole lot of trouble um

605
00:37:37,000 --> 00:37:39,560
Speaker 1: And then instead it was just law enforcement and active

606
00:37:39,560 --> 00:37:43,440
Speaker 1: military who were undercover there right to come again. I

607
00:37:43,480 --> 00:37:45,279
Speaker 1: wonder if that was like a bad look for them,

608
00:37:45,280 --> 00:37:47,080
Speaker 1: and like a mercenary groups like and you see what

609
00:37:47,120 --> 00:37:52,239
Speaker 1: happens when you hire local, see what happens. That's why

610
00:37:52,280 --> 00:37:54,000
Speaker 1: you want to go with us. We don't give a fuck.

611
00:37:54,200 --> 00:37:56,520
Speaker 1: We don't give a funk. Honestly, these people there, they

612
00:37:56,560 --> 00:37:57,839
Speaker 1: were all do you see, and they were all they

613
00:37:57,840 --> 00:37:59,399
Speaker 1: thought they were on a field trip when they got

614
00:37:59,440 --> 00:38:01,919
Speaker 1: in there. We get right down to it. You want

615
00:38:01,920 --> 00:38:03,879
Speaker 1: to you want to overturn election. That's one of our

616
00:38:04,040 --> 00:38:06,120
Speaker 1: you know, that's the first bullet point in our in

617
00:38:06,160 --> 00:38:09,719
Speaker 1: our deck here. I mean there's a new quote like

618
00:38:09,760 --> 00:38:13,600
Speaker 1: what in the you know, steady stream of people who

619
00:38:13,680 --> 00:38:18,000
Speaker 1: were around Trump during the insurrection, like the trickle of

620
00:38:18,040 --> 00:38:20,680
Speaker 1: reporting that's coming out where he was like talking about

621
00:38:20,680 --> 00:38:24,200
Speaker 1: which military leaders like he thinks would be good at

622
00:38:24,200 --> 00:38:26,399
Speaker 1: a coup and which wouldn't be good at a coup.

623
00:38:26,760 --> 00:38:30,120
Speaker 1: Like that's yeah, that we were. We were very close,

624
00:38:30,440 --> 00:38:35,560
Speaker 1: like just a small amount of shamelessness and competence away

625
00:38:35,600 --> 00:38:41,320
Speaker 1: from that being an ongoing crisis. When you say which

626
00:38:41,400 --> 00:38:44,960
Speaker 1: military like within our military, yes, would you get So

627
00:38:45,000 --> 00:38:48,600
Speaker 1: it's like some weird like fascist slumber party game. If

628
00:38:48,600 --> 00:38:50,200
Speaker 1: I was going to do a coupe, this is a

629
00:38:50,239 --> 00:38:52,279
Speaker 1: direct quote. I was going to do a coupe. One

630
00:38:52,280 --> 00:38:54,040
Speaker 1: of the last people I would want to do it with,

631
00:38:54,800 --> 00:38:58,520
Speaker 1: General Mark Millie. Yeah. He added that the Chairman of

632
00:38:58,520 --> 00:39:01,040
Speaker 1: the Joint Chiefs had no cur your skills certainly not

633
00:39:01,120 --> 00:39:05,319
Speaker 1: the type of person I would be talking que with, right,

634
00:39:05,360 --> 00:39:07,239
Speaker 1: And that's that's the same Mark Millie, who are now

635
00:39:07,320 --> 00:39:10,160
Speaker 1: hearing he was saying, like, Yeah, I'm telling everyone, this

636
00:39:10,200 --> 00:39:13,919
Speaker 1: guy's acting like Hitler. It was very like out there.

637
00:39:13,960 --> 00:39:16,279
Speaker 1: It seems like this is also part of him trying

638
00:39:16,320 --> 00:39:19,439
Speaker 1: to just sort of get the narrative back about him too,

639
00:39:19,480 --> 00:39:21,920
Speaker 1: because he was serving for Trump. He's like, yeah, but

640
00:39:21,920 --> 00:39:23,759
Speaker 1: here's the thing. I called him Hitler, and I and

641
00:39:23,760 --> 00:39:25,480
Speaker 1: I knew the coup could have happened, and I was

642
00:39:25,480 --> 00:39:29,239
Speaker 1: gonna fucking stop that. So we can we can we

643
00:39:29,280 --> 00:39:33,279
Speaker 1: be nice? Can I get a book? Deal? Now? All right,

644
00:39:33,440 --> 00:39:35,799
Speaker 1: let's take a quick break and we'll be right back.

645
00:39:46,200 --> 00:39:51,080
Speaker 1: And we're back. And the privatization of like kind of

646
00:39:51,680 --> 00:39:55,080
Speaker 1: security forces on a on a very small scale is

647
00:39:55,120 --> 00:40:01,480
Speaker 1: being delivered to Americans via a new Ring product. M yeah, baby,

648
00:40:01,719 --> 00:40:05,040
Speaker 1: yeah they I don't know why this would make anyone

649
00:40:05,120 --> 00:40:08,440
Speaker 1: feel fucking good about anything, but like, you know, Ring

650
00:40:08,520 --> 00:40:13,160
Speaker 1: and the entire home security industry like is built on

651
00:40:13,239 --> 00:40:16,239
Speaker 1: like scaring the funk out of people and getting them

652
00:40:16,280 --> 00:40:18,839
Speaker 1: to buy into their version of reality where like every

653
00:40:18,880 --> 00:40:22,040
Speaker 1: neighborhood in America is filled with dangerous people, and like

654
00:40:22,320 --> 00:40:24,560
Speaker 1: the only way to protect yourself is to like have

655
00:40:24,880 --> 00:40:29,279
Speaker 1: constant surveillance and apps where people can like talk about

656
00:40:29,320 --> 00:40:32,680
Speaker 1: their neighbors and and you know, and and get off

657
00:40:32,719 --> 00:40:36,040
Speaker 1: some of the most racist takes you've ever seen. And

658
00:40:36,239 --> 00:40:38,319
Speaker 1: you know, like we talked about how like when Ring

659
00:40:38,400 --> 00:40:40,760
Speaker 1: was bought by Amazon, then they were putting out ads

660
00:40:40,800 --> 00:40:44,360
Speaker 1: for like looking for crime reporters to help like create

661
00:40:44,520 --> 00:40:47,239
Speaker 1: content for their ads again to keep this sort of

662
00:40:47,320 --> 00:40:51,080
Speaker 1: cruel and unusual world narrative going for all their users.

663
00:40:51,680 --> 00:40:55,600
Speaker 1: And as if having a ton of hackable cameras wasn't

664
00:40:55,719 --> 00:40:58,320
Speaker 1: enough to make you feel safe, Ring has announced this

665
00:40:58,480 --> 00:41:02,439
Speaker 1: new product which is the Ring Always Home Cam. It's

666
00:41:02,440 --> 00:41:06,799
Speaker 1: a fucking drone that will fly around your house so

667
00:41:06,880 --> 00:41:09,600
Speaker 1: you can check all the nooks and crannies when you're

668
00:41:09,600 --> 00:41:11,799
Speaker 1: out of the house. So I'll just read it like

669
00:41:11,920 --> 00:41:15,280
Speaker 1: it looks so like it like looks like Wally's Friend.

670
00:41:15,360 --> 00:41:17,440
Speaker 1: It's made to look so non aggressive, but it's a

671
00:41:17,480 --> 00:41:20,799
Speaker 1: miniature quad copter with a camera on it. And they say,

672
00:41:20,840 --> 00:41:23,520
Speaker 1: the Ring Always Home Camp is a drone camera that

673
00:41:23,560 --> 00:41:27,680
Speaker 1: you can program to follow preset flight paths throughout your home. Yeah,

674
00:41:27,719 --> 00:41:29,560
Speaker 1: you'll get the most out of it when paired with

675
00:41:29,560 --> 00:41:32,720
Speaker 1: a Ring Alarm subscription, since the drone is automatically triggered

676
00:41:32,760 --> 00:41:35,960
Speaker 1: to lift from its base to fly preset paths. In

677
00:41:36,080 --> 00:41:39,080
Speaker 1: the ad for it, it was basically some person leaving

678
00:41:39,120 --> 00:41:42,000
Speaker 1: their house and like setting their alarm, but then a

679
00:41:42,000 --> 00:41:45,320
Speaker 1: guy with a ski mask decided to open a window

680
00:41:45,520 --> 00:41:48,600
Speaker 1: and the alarm went off, and then the drones like

681
00:41:48,600 --> 00:41:51,319
Speaker 1: like to check, and this guy's checking his phone and

682
00:41:51,360 --> 00:41:54,839
Speaker 1: it looks like this like steady cam shot going through

683
00:41:54,880 --> 00:41:57,839
Speaker 1: your house and it arrives to the point of entry

684
00:41:57,880 --> 00:41:59,759
Speaker 1: where this guy with the sche mask is in and

685
00:41:59,760 --> 00:42:02,160
Speaker 1: the I sees and he's like, oh no, I didn't

686
00:42:02,160 --> 00:42:04,160
Speaker 1: know it was a little quad copter. I'm gonna go,

687
00:42:04,400 --> 00:42:08,040
Speaker 1: you know what, crime over and like leaves and it

688
00:42:08,160 --> 00:42:11,040
Speaker 1: follows him home and he decided to change his life

689
00:42:11,120 --> 00:42:19,279
Speaker 1: and go to college become an engineer for ring r UM,

690
00:42:19,280 --> 00:42:21,919
Speaker 1: And I it's weird that, like again, as if there

691
00:42:22,120 --> 00:42:24,840
Speaker 1: we don't have enough ways for you to put cameras

692
00:42:24,840 --> 00:42:26,520
Speaker 1: in your own home, Like I guess they're trying to

693
00:42:26,520 --> 00:42:30,520
Speaker 1: be like stationary cameras are for victims, but like for

694
00:42:30,600 --> 00:42:33,399
Speaker 1: those of us that embrace the surveillance state, you can

695
00:42:33,440 --> 00:42:36,680
Speaker 1: now invite it directly into your home, and the potential

696
00:42:36,760 --> 00:42:40,480
Speaker 1: for bad ship with this just seems infinite, Like the

697
00:42:40,560 --> 00:42:44,680
Speaker 1: idea that now you're gonna deploy security drones within your

698
00:42:44,719 --> 00:42:48,640
Speaker 1: home it's just like such a nightmare, such a situation

699
00:42:48,680 --> 00:42:50,640
Speaker 1: for me. But I just won't also point out that,

700
00:42:50,800 --> 00:42:55,360
Speaker 1: you know, Amazon and the police are using ring cameras

701
00:42:55,400 --> 00:42:59,359
Speaker 1: to basically privately crowdfund their own surveillance networks. And it's

702
00:42:59,360 --> 00:43:01,719
Speaker 1: a little think. Not many people were of this all

703
00:43:01,760 --> 00:43:05,800
Speaker 1: but two states, Montana and Wyoming. This is from the

704
00:43:05,920 --> 00:43:09,200
Speaker 1: Verge quote now have police or fire departments participating in

705
00:43:09,320 --> 00:43:12,400
Speaker 1: Amazon's Ring network, which lets law enforcement ask users for

706
00:43:12,400 --> 00:43:15,880
Speaker 1: footage from their ring security cameras to assist with investigations.

707
00:43:16,239 --> 00:43:18,920
Speaker 1: And they say now, figures from Rings show more than

708
00:43:20,040 --> 00:43:23,080
Speaker 1: nine departments joined the program in for a total of

709
00:43:23,160 --> 00:43:26,759
Speaker 1: over two thousand. And they're saying that even if you're

710
00:43:26,760 --> 00:43:29,480
Speaker 1: a person who if the police say, hey, we'd like

711
00:43:29,520 --> 00:43:32,080
Speaker 1: to obtain some of the footage from your ring camera,

712
00:43:32,600 --> 00:43:34,759
Speaker 1: some people who own the cameras don't even have the

713
00:43:34,800 --> 00:43:39,080
Speaker 1: ability to say no. They're just like Amazon will just

714
00:43:39,160 --> 00:43:41,719
Speaker 1: go around them and be like, yeah, okay, here it is.

715
00:43:42,320 --> 00:43:44,480
Speaker 1: So this is just a very there's like so many

716
00:43:44,560 --> 00:43:47,240
Speaker 1: layers to this that it just like there gets spooky

717
00:43:47,280 --> 00:43:50,000
Speaker 1: and spookier and spookier when you look at it. What

718
00:43:50,080 --> 00:43:53,759
Speaker 1: are the cops doing or not doing, rather that they

719
00:43:53,800 --> 00:43:57,080
Speaker 1: need like entire cities to be on ring camera, right

720
00:43:57,160 --> 00:44:00,920
Speaker 1: Like this really, I mean this is this is all

721
00:44:00,960 --> 00:44:04,239
Speaker 1: the ads that the defund the police movement really needs, right,

722
00:44:04,360 --> 00:44:08,600
Speaker 1: Like people still need to depend on like fucking cameras

723
00:44:08,680 --> 00:44:11,080
Speaker 1: flying around every inch of their home and that still

724
00:44:11,120 --> 00:44:13,839
Speaker 1: maybe doesn't even prevent the crime. Like what the hell

725
00:44:13,880 --> 00:44:16,239
Speaker 1: do we have the cops for? And then then we

726
00:44:16,280 --> 00:44:18,239
Speaker 1: go step for like and then the rain camera gets

727
00:44:18,239 --> 00:44:21,040
Speaker 1: super wolke. It's like, but what is crime is? It

728
00:44:21,920 --> 00:44:24,920
Speaker 1: is a sectrum of a of a society where there's

729
00:44:24,920 --> 00:44:27,160
Speaker 1: no social safety net and people are driven to such

730
00:44:27,200 --> 00:44:31,399
Speaker 1: desperation that their only financial recourse or to commit property crimes. Hi,

731
00:44:31,520 --> 00:44:34,440
Speaker 1: I'm Jeff Bezos and blah blah. But it's like like

732
00:44:34,560 --> 00:44:37,160
Speaker 1: I don't know where they Yeah, I feel like the

733
00:44:37,239 --> 00:44:41,640
Speaker 1: simple question is, wait, what what about police? If I

734
00:44:41,719 --> 00:44:46,920
Speaker 1: need super drone to shoot away a suspected burglary a

735
00:44:47,000 --> 00:44:51,760
Speaker 1: burglar from my home? Right, where are the cops watching

736
00:44:51,800 --> 00:44:55,879
Speaker 1: my ring footage? I guess? But the cool stuff when

737
00:44:55,880 --> 00:44:58,040
Speaker 1: it's aimed at someone's backyard and they got a pool,

738
00:44:58,560 --> 00:45:02,080
Speaker 1: It's like, Okay, that's not You're not enforcing anything. Have

739
00:45:02,160 --> 00:45:05,400
Speaker 1: you have you seen any of like the YouTube videos

740
00:45:05,400 --> 00:45:11,480
Speaker 1: of people putting guns on quad copters, because that's happening.

741
00:45:11,840 --> 00:45:16,840
Speaker 1: I saw. I mean, I I saw a terminator to judgment. Basically,

742
00:45:17,160 --> 00:45:20,080
Speaker 1: I have an idea of what that's like. But you're

743
00:45:20,080 --> 00:45:23,760
Speaker 1: saying people are now I mean just like home homespun

744
00:45:24,440 --> 00:45:28,279
Speaker 1: homespun killer drums. Yeah yeah, okay, well yeah, I mean

745
00:45:28,440 --> 00:45:31,560
Speaker 1: that that that goes along with that, like lego glocks

746
00:45:31,640 --> 00:45:35,480
Speaker 1: that that just came out. People like they're like just

747
00:45:35,480 --> 00:45:38,440
Speaker 1: just just a cool gun that they glued legos on

748
00:45:38,520 --> 00:45:42,839
Speaker 1: to like make the gun more children. Yeah, that's cool,

749
00:45:42,960 --> 00:45:45,719
Speaker 1: but can end to life. And because that's because we're

750
00:45:45,719 --> 00:45:47,719
Speaker 1: talking aesthetics. But I mean, when you think about, like

751
00:45:48,040 --> 00:45:50,920
Speaker 1: one of the big arguments for gun ownership in America

752
00:45:51,360 --> 00:45:56,320
Speaker 1: is like the fantasy of like that that iconic figure

753
00:45:56,719 --> 00:46:01,280
Speaker 1: of guy in ski mask breaking into house and getting

754
00:46:01,320 --> 00:46:05,360
Speaker 1: to shoot someone with impunity, and like I can just imagine,

755
00:46:05,400 --> 00:46:09,680
Speaker 1: like it doesn't feel like it's much of a much

756
00:46:09,680 --> 00:46:12,799
Speaker 1: of a leap to a world where this thing rises

757
00:46:12,800 --> 00:46:15,520
Speaker 1: out of the ground with a fucking handgun and attached

758
00:46:15,520 --> 00:46:20,200
Speaker 1: to it right and again, inherently like anything on that

759
00:46:20,440 --> 00:46:24,600
Speaker 1: Internet connected could be hackable. So who knows what other

760
00:46:25,040 --> 00:46:29,239
Speaker 1: eventual applications they have. I don't know if anyone. Again,

761
00:46:29,320 --> 00:46:31,280
Speaker 1: I don't know who this is for, but this seems

762
00:46:31,320 --> 00:46:34,680
Speaker 1: like a very specific person who's consumed a lot of

763
00:46:34,920 --> 00:46:38,719
Speaker 1: you know, Facebook posts and like neighbor app posts to

764
00:46:38,840 --> 00:46:40,520
Speaker 1: be like, yeah, yeah, I need this, I need this.

765
00:46:40,800 --> 00:46:47,080
Speaker 1: The only way to feel safe is drone. Just yeah.

766
00:46:47,239 --> 00:46:48,960
Speaker 1: They make it look they make this ship look cute

767
00:46:49,000 --> 00:46:51,719
Speaker 1: as hell, and the commercial like it's not some it's

768
00:46:51,760 --> 00:46:54,640
Speaker 1: not you know, indicating what our bleak future looks like.

769
00:46:54,719 --> 00:46:57,680
Speaker 1: It really was meant to look like a fun thing

770
00:46:57,800 --> 00:47:01,600
Speaker 1: that would make someone re consider committing a crime because

771
00:47:01,600 --> 00:47:04,759
Speaker 1: it saw you. Let's talk about some good news in

772
00:47:04,800 --> 00:47:09,320
Speaker 1: this crazy mixed up world. A corporation bringing two groups

773
00:47:09,360 --> 00:47:13,719
Speaker 1: together after at long last. You know, this has been

774
00:47:14,080 --> 00:47:21,080
Speaker 1: years of these groups butting heads, and Hines is here

775
00:47:21,160 --> 00:47:24,600
Speaker 1: to bring the hot dog people and the hot dog

776
00:47:24,640 --> 00:47:28,120
Speaker 1: bun people together. It's a I think it's a Seinfeld

777
00:47:28,200 --> 00:47:31,839
Speaker 1: joke maybe about like how you know hot dogs come

778
00:47:31,880 --> 00:47:35,400
Speaker 1: in ten packs, hot dog buttons coming eight, what's the

779
00:47:35,480 --> 00:47:41,080
Speaker 1: deal with that? Yeah, and that that Hines is trying

780
00:47:41,120 --> 00:47:45,320
Speaker 1: to broker a piece here, broker an accord between the two.

781
00:47:46,040 --> 00:47:48,360
Speaker 1: But don't they own the fucking aren't they all owned

782
00:47:48,360 --> 00:47:54,160
Speaker 1: by the same like three companies anyway, General Food, Ors

783
00:47:54,320 --> 00:47:57,160
Speaker 1: Craft or whatever. They fucking owned the bread and the

784
00:47:57,160 --> 00:48:00,360
Speaker 1: hot dog people. Is it really reaching across the aisle

785
00:48:00,480 --> 00:48:04,120
Speaker 1: or I guess in this romantic version it is. Yeah,

786
00:48:04,200 --> 00:48:08,239
Speaker 1: the I'm pretty sure they are all owned by like

787
00:48:08,680 --> 00:48:13,680
Speaker 1: one of two companies. So the reason that they're said

788
00:48:13,760 --> 00:48:17,440
Speaker 1: that they have different counts is hot dogs used to

789
00:48:17,440 --> 00:48:20,320
Speaker 1: be a thing that was sold by butchers, and butchers

790
00:48:20,320 --> 00:48:22,879
Speaker 1: tend to go with like the ten pack for all

791
00:48:22,920 --> 00:48:27,400
Speaker 1: things because that's just like what makes sense, like what's

792
00:48:27,400 --> 00:48:31,759
Speaker 1: the easiest count, And but then bakers go with eight

793
00:48:32,280 --> 00:48:35,919
Speaker 1: because bakers, I don't know, they don't they don't play

794
00:48:35,920 --> 00:48:41,200
Speaker 1: by Yeah. Yeah, so I mean but that but that's

795
00:48:41,200 --> 00:48:44,359
Speaker 1: not an even ten. Like bakers are loose cannons when

796
00:48:44,360 --> 00:48:47,000
Speaker 1: it comes to numbers. They'll just they'll throw thirteen roles

797
00:48:47,040 --> 00:48:50,080
Speaker 1: at you. They don't give a fuck, you know, like,

798
00:48:51,080 --> 00:48:54,440
Speaker 1: is different than your dozen? Fuck the meat bread balance,

799
00:48:54,600 --> 00:48:58,160
Speaker 1: here's another loaf? Go But is it because maybe because

800
00:48:58,680 --> 00:49:02,279
Speaker 1: eight because it's divisible by four and twelve is their god.

801
00:49:02,520 --> 00:49:05,720
Speaker 1: The dozen is the god of the of the baker. Yeah,

802
00:49:05,800 --> 00:49:09,160
Speaker 1: so it's basically I think the reason the dozen is

803
00:49:09,160 --> 00:49:11,480
Speaker 1: the god of the baker is the reason that they

804
00:49:11,520 --> 00:49:14,759
Speaker 1: have the eight, which is that they have trays, like

805
00:49:14,840 --> 00:49:19,360
Speaker 1: baking trays that are like built in fours, so you

806
00:49:19,400 --> 00:49:24,400
Speaker 1: always have like like multiples of four for all baking products.

807
00:49:24,960 --> 00:49:28,399
Speaker 1: Who's making the tens exactly? So that's what out further,

808
00:49:28,560 --> 00:49:30,960
Speaker 1: that's what HINS needs to be thinking about right here.

809
00:49:31,520 --> 00:49:34,200
Speaker 1: So are they going to Is this like a real thing?

810
00:49:34,360 --> 00:49:37,719
Speaker 1: Is this like a marketing thing? They're just trying to

811
00:49:37,880 --> 00:49:39,960
Speaker 1: They had a bad damnit, Jack, I was hoping for

812
00:49:40,040 --> 00:49:44,279
Speaker 1: substantive change. They had a bad because they and they

813
00:49:44,280 --> 00:49:47,520
Speaker 1: were like embroidered in accounting scandal that I know we

814
00:49:47,600 --> 00:49:51,600
Speaker 1: all followed closely. Their CEO had to resign in twenty nineteen.

815
00:49:52,440 --> 00:49:56,279
Speaker 1: Profits were already falling before the catch up shortage during

816
00:49:56,320 --> 00:50:00,480
Speaker 1: the pandemic, so they're like, uh, we're back. It's not

817
00:50:00,520 --> 00:50:03,000
Speaker 1: really like a growth product. It's not like people are

818
00:50:03,200 --> 00:50:06,120
Speaker 1: still finding out about catch up. So I don't know,

819
00:50:09,000 --> 00:50:14,560
Speaker 1: You're like, did you hear what they did? That's the

820
00:50:14,680 --> 00:50:17,000
Speaker 1: Oh they make the red stuff. Oh so it's the

821
00:50:17,360 --> 00:50:20,880
Speaker 1: So they're acting as so the condiment maker is acting

822
00:50:20,920 --> 00:50:25,760
Speaker 1: as the intermediary, neutral third party to create this accord.

823
00:50:27,320 --> 00:50:29,839
Speaker 1: I see, I see, I see, I see. That's why

824
00:50:29,880 --> 00:50:33,480
Speaker 1: I buy Nathan's. They come in eight and the buns

825
00:50:33,520 --> 00:50:38,080
Speaker 1: come in eight, right, but they match up? Yeah, because

826
00:50:38,080 --> 00:50:40,440
Speaker 1: I have a terrible I have a terrible I hate

827
00:50:40,480 --> 00:50:42,680
Speaker 1: when you got extra, but I just can't handle this ship.

828
00:50:42,760 --> 00:50:45,080
Speaker 1: It really bugs me again, along with me being a

829
00:50:45,120 --> 00:50:46,759
Speaker 1: completionist and not watching a lot of the m c

830
00:50:46,880 --> 00:50:49,200
Speaker 1: U films. I don't like getting a ten pack of

831
00:50:49,239 --> 00:50:53,160
Speaker 1: buns when I only have eight francs. Just did you

832
00:50:53,200 --> 00:50:59,440
Speaker 1: watch all the low Keys? Yeah? Any anything? Well? That

833
00:50:59,719 --> 00:51:01,839
Speaker 1: that I think towards the end is when they like

834
00:51:01,960 --> 00:51:06,440
Speaker 1: revealed the large m c U like crossover possibility. I

835
00:51:06,480 --> 00:51:10,200
Speaker 1: only know about this because Toby McGuire was trending and

836
00:51:10,280 --> 00:51:13,360
Speaker 1: my Google alert that tells me every time Toby what

837
00:51:13,680 --> 00:51:17,880
Speaker 1: McGuire's trending? Uh, hit me up and wait, not Toby McGuire.

838
00:51:17,920 --> 00:51:24,080
Speaker 1: What Who did Toby McGuire played Spider Man? Yeah? So

839
00:51:24,160 --> 00:51:27,040
Speaker 1: people are like, finally Toby McGuire is gonna like enter

840
00:51:27,040 --> 00:51:30,160
Speaker 1: into the m c U. Our dreams are answered. I

841
00:51:30,200 --> 00:51:34,319
Speaker 1: don't know. People, people are weird stands Yeah, oh yeah,

842
00:51:34,360 --> 00:51:39,799
Speaker 1: the McGuire us McGuire stands and uh, yeah, that that's so.

843
00:51:39,960 --> 00:51:44,600
Speaker 1: His name was trending, which always intrigued me, and that

844
00:51:44,600 --> 00:51:48,120
Speaker 1: that was the reason because like they opened the possibility

845
00:51:48,239 --> 00:51:52,040
Speaker 1: of like all the different Marvel movies being connected and

846
00:51:52,239 --> 00:51:57,919
Speaker 1: like some great crossover event, which I think excites. It's

847
00:51:57,960 --> 00:52:01,600
Speaker 1: really just a scheme to remake the remakes and remake

848
00:52:01,680 --> 00:52:06,319
Speaker 1: those That's what I'm saying. Yeah, I think you mispronounced art.

849
00:52:06,840 --> 00:52:13,799
Speaker 1: It's art. It's just like so funny that like and

850
00:52:13,840 --> 00:52:15,600
Speaker 1: do what they even need? That is it really going

851
00:52:15,680 --> 00:52:18,520
Speaker 1: to be like Elevator everything? And then it all crossed

852
00:52:18,920 --> 00:52:24,240
Speaker 1: the verse, like they covered the idea of a multiverse

853
00:52:24,280 --> 00:52:27,080
Speaker 1: and like everything that's interesting about that, and like the

854
00:52:27,120 --> 00:52:29,759
Speaker 1: idea that all the different comics and like drawn in

855
00:52:29,800 --> 00:52:32,920
Speaker 1: different styles are just like coming from different parts of

856
00:52:32,960 --> 00:52:36,520
Speaker 1: the multiverse like this. The only thing this adds is

857
00:52:36,600 --> 00:52:41,760
Speaker 1: like being like, whoa, it's the actor from that one? True?

858
00:52:41,920 --> 00:52:44,160
Speaker 1: Isn't that interesting to me? Well, if if you if

859
00:52:44,200 --> 00:52:47,520
Speaker 1: you like a bunch of loose associated and affiliated acts

Speaker 1: of the work of social media you've been enjoying four fos.

883
00:54:07,320 --> 00:54:15,480
Speaker 1: I'm gripping, Oh man, what's that? How do people look at?

884
00:54:15,560 --> 00:54:18,440
Speaker 1: What serious is referencing is a video where someone is

885
00:54:18,520 --> 00:54:21,960
Speaker 1: asking somebody just a very simple question, how do you

886
00:54:21,960 --> 00:54:24,760
Speaker 1: get out the hood? And it's two black people talking,

887
00:54:25,200 --> 00:54:27,839
Speaker 1: and then these people start arguing over Mike and like this,

888
00:54:27,960 --> 00:54:30,880
Speaker 1: like seven foot white guy in a polo shirt enters

889
00:54:30,920 --> 00:54:33,960
Speaker 1: the frame and the question is posed to him, in

890
00:54:34,000 --> 00:54:37,120
Speaker 1: which case he rightfully admits I wouldn't know how to

891
00:54:37,120 --> 00:54:38,960
Speaker 1: answer the question because I did not grow up in

892
00:54:39,000 --> 00:54:41,080
Speaker 1: the hood, but I'm down to go there, and then

893
00:54:41,080 --> 00:54:45,120
Speaker 1: starts spitting still tipping by Mike Jones with so much

894
00:54:45,200 --> 00:54:50,520
Speaker 1: gusto and energy it's it made me believe again. Miles,

899
00:55:01,800 --> 00:55:04,239

00:55:04,719 --> 00:55:08,120
Speaker 1: First one is uh, someone named as Slicky William said

Speaker 1: we salute her. Another one is Eric Blank at Underscore.

906
00:55:26,600 --> 00:55:29,239
Speaker 1: Eric Blank just has a picture of this sign that's

907
00:55:29,280 --> 00:55:31,920
Speaker 1: posted outside of a restaurant in New York. It says, quote,

908
00:55:31,960 --> 00:55:34,319
Speaker 1: it's like just like one of those just printed things

909
00:55:34,360 --> 00:55:36,360
Speaker 1: on a window in a restaurant says we need chef,
