If you like saying that, 13 00:00:36,760 --> 00:00:39,279 Speaker 1: I don't. That's the last ten years have been a blur, 14 00:00:40,040 --> 00:00:45,920 Speaker 1: yeah e two. You know, especially the last few because 15 00:00:45,960 --> 00:00:51,720 Speaker 1: nothing's happened. Well, it was another big day. Oh by 16 00:00:51,720 --> 00:00:56,440 Speaker 1: the way, big story from last hour. The Senator from Iowa, 17 00:00:56,560 --> 00:01:02,200 Speaker 1: Chuck Rassley, a Republican, made a speech opposing Eric Garcetti's 18 00:01:02,280 --> 00:01:05,880 Speaker 1: nomination to be the next ambassador to India. It was 19 00:01:05,959 --> 00:01:08,679 Speaker 1: like a full twelve minutes. He went off on Garcetti 20 00:01:08,720 --> 00:01:11,360 Speaker 1: and the whole scandal involving his former aide Rick Jacobs. 21 00:01:11,959 --> 00:01:14,000 Speaker 1: What we don't know or trying to find out. Are 22 00:01:14,000 --> 00:01:16,119 Speaker 1: they trying to make a move to do a full 23 00:01:16,160 --> 00:01:20,559 Speaker 1: Senate for vote on Garcetti's nomination, because we wonder why 24 00:01:21,080 --> 00:01:23,720 Speaker 1: Grassly chose to make this speech today, and there were 25 00:01:23,760 --> 00:01:26,440 Speaker 1: reports that they would use this December sort of lane 26 00:01:26,520 --> 00:01:28,720 Speaker 1: duck session to try to get the nomination through. Unless 27 00:01:28,760 --> 00:01:34,200 Speaker 1: it's a preemptive attack, it could be anticipating they might move. Yeah, 28 00:01:34,200 --> 00:01:36,880 Speaker 1: if he heard that, and he's letting them know that 29 00:01:36,920 --> 00:01:38,959 Speaker 1: if you keep pushing Garcetti, I'm going to make this 30 00:01:39,040 --> 00:01:43,080 Speaker 1: a circus. Now, we'll keep an eye on it. Let 31 00:01:43,120 --> 00:01:44,959 Speaker 1: you know. There were rumors that we're going to try 32 00:01:45,000 --> 00:01:47,400 Speaker 1: to push it through this month because it's been a 33 00:01:47,480 --> 00:01:50,720 Speaker 1: year and a half since Biden nominated him as ambassador. 34 00:01:52,000 --> 00:01:54,040 Speaker 1: Now we move over to the La City Clown, Seoul. 35 00:01:54,880 --> 00:01:58,560 Speaker 1: This was their last meeting of twenty twenty two, and 36 00:01:58,600 --> 00:02:00,280 Speaker 1: the reason they did it is they welcome in a 37 00:02:00,320 --> 00:02:02,320 Speaker 1: few new members who got sworn in over the weekend. 38 00:02:02,840 --> 00:02:05,400 Speaker 1: John of course went to the Tracy Park event and 39 00:02:06,120 --> 00:02:07,760 Speaker 1: sewed her on and then left the room because the 40 00:02:07,800 --> 00:02:13,440 Speaker 1: protesters were too much for him to handle. Made a 41 00:02:13,480 --> 00:02:15,120 Speaker 1: bee line for the exit. He went right to his 42 00:02:15,160 --> 00:02:18,760 Speaker 1: bunker at home. I'm not I don't standards nuclear fallout shelter. 43 00:02:18,919 --> 00:02:23,160 Speaker 1: When mental patients start acting out, I get out of there. Anyway. 44 00:02:23,200 --> 00:02:24,639 Speaker 1: I heard her say in the news this morning, but 45 00:02:24,720 --> 00:02:26,960 Speaker 1: she kind of fears for her safety because these protesters 46 00:02:27,000 --> 00:02:29,639 Speaker 1: are getting uggly. And then, of course Friday night there 47 00:02:29,680 --> 00:02:32,760 Speaker 1: was an altercation between Kevin de Leone and one of 48 00:02:32,760 --> 00:02:36,480 Speaker 1: the protesters. So they've been showing up all along since 49 00:02:36,480 --> 00:02:41,400 Speaker 1: the scandal started with the conversation that was leaked between 50 00:02:41,440 --> 00:02:46,760 Speaker 1: the three council members involving Deleone, kill Saidio and Nouri Martinez, 51 00:02:46,800 --> 00:02:50,480 Speaker 1: and of course Martinez resigned. Dio's done. Delone is the 52 00:02:50,520 --> 00:02:52,880 Speaker 1: one that's left, and he showed up today, we think 53 00:02:53,440 --> 00:02:56,120 Speaker 1: because he wants to make sure he gets paid and 54 00:02:56,160 --> 00:02:58,760 Speaker 1: he has no intentions of resigning. He is going to 55 00:02:59,520 --> 00:03:04,000 Speaker 1: tough this one out. That seems to be a strategy. 56 00:03:04,040 --> 00:03:07,640 Speaker 1: So we have some of the audio from what happened today. 57 00:03:08,120 --> 00:03:12,080 Speaker 1: This piece here is the city clerk and acting City 58 00:03:12,120 --> 00:03:16,240 Speaker 1: Council President, Holly Walcott. I think she's in the market 59 00:03:16,320 --> 00:03:19,400 Speaker 1: League Thomas seat. If I'm not mistaken, that's who I'm 60 00:03:19,400 --> 00:03:21,000 Speaker 1: not familiar with. Her name on the council, but I 61 00:03:21,000 --> 00:03:24,440 Speaker 1: believe she got that appointment and also involved a deputy 62 00:03:24,480 --> 00:03:30,720 Speaker 1: city attorney with a name that strephen Fable Strefen, Yeah, 63 00:03:31,400 --> 00:03:35,160 Speaker 1: and he acts like a streffen Fable. Anyway. This first 64 00:03:35,160 --> 00:03:37,360 Speaker 1: clip is he's trying to tell the protesters, We're not 65 00:03:37,400 --> 00:03:39,800 Speaker 1: going to put up with you today. Ladies and gentlemen. 66 00:03:39,880 --> 00:03:43,120 Speaker 1: You will not disrupt this meeting. If you disrupt this meeting, 67 00:03:43,120 --> 00:03:46,560 Speaker 1: you will be asked to leave. So the presiding officer 68 00:03:46,600 --> 00:03:49,880 Speaker 1: has advised you a bunch of you are actually disrupting 69 00:03:49,880 --> 00:03:53,560 Speaker 1: the meeting and violation of removal twelve and ordered to stop. 70 00:03:54,120 --> 00:03:56,880 Speaker 1: If you don't, you may be ordered to leave, and 71 00:03:56,960 --> 00:04:00,480 Speaker 1: if you don't, you may be ordered removed. That duty 72 00:04:00,520 --> 00:04:03,080 Speaker 1: at LAPD to get to remove these protests. You're in 73 00:04:03,160 --> 00:04:10,600 Speaker 1: violation of rule twelve. The next clip, what you're gonna 74 00:04:10,640 --> 00:04:12,960 Speaker 1: hear them yelling is because they got word. It took 75 00:04:12,960 --> 00:04:15,240 Speaker 1: an hour or so before Kevin de Leone showed up 76 00:04:15,280 --> 00:04:17,240 Speaker 1: and then as we said, he went into a back 77 00:04:17,320 --> 00:04:20,960 Speaker 1: room and hid for the rest of the session. So 78 00:04:21,240 --> 00:04:27,440 Speaker 1: it's again Walcott and Faubell Stephen Fauble trying to control 79 00:04:27,480 --> 00:04:30,640 Speaker 1: the protesters and they're chanting for the arrest. Now, if 80 00:04:30,680 --> 00:04:33,080 Speaker 1: Kevin de Leon thanks to the altercation on Friday night, 81 00:04:33,160 --> 00:04:35,480 Speaker 1: here we go. I'd like to hear from the speaker 82 00:04:35,520 --> 00:04:39,000 Speaker 1: at the podium, Yes, if if we could, Michael Williams, 83 00:04:39,040 --> 00:04:42,880 Speaker 1: you have one minute for general public comment. So this 84 00:04:42,960 --> 00:04:45,280 Speaker 1: gentleman has the floor, if we could listen to him. 85 00:04:45,880 --> 00:04:49,479 Speaker 1: And three, I mean one and two. Those items are 86 00:04:49,520 --> 00:04:52,880 Speaker 1: not before us. They've already been voted on, but you're 87 00:04:52,920 --> 00:04:54,919 Speaker 1: free to talk about them in general. So for members 88 00:04:54,960 --> 00:04:59,440 Speaker 1: of the public, we have somebody at the post took 89 00:04:59,480 --> 00:05:01,680 Speaker 1: it all, um, I should still be allowed to talk 90 00:05:01,720 --> 00:05:04,239 Speaker 1: about it. So hold on, speaker. I'm sorry, I really 91 00:05:04,360 --> 00:05:13,719 Speaker 1: we can't hear you. So for example, with the glasses 92 00:05:13,760 --> 00:05:16,359 Speaker 1: and the black mask, you're shouting very loudly and I 93 00:05:16,400 --> 00:05:19,839 Speaker 1: can't hear the speaker. Please stop. Instructed to stop shouting 94 00:05:20,040 --> 00:05:21,840 Speaker 1: so that we can hear the person who's come down here. 95 00:05:22,240 --> 00:05:27,720 Speaker 1: He has the floor. Okay, So Madame Clerk, I recommend 96 00:05:27,720 --> 00:05:31,920 Speaker 1: that we instruct that person Katl who's been asked to stop. 97 00:05:32,600 --> 00:05:35,560 Speaker 1: Mister s Jenny, I'm having trouble hear you, so you should. 98 00:05:36,000 --> 00:05:39,680 Speaker 1: You'll be such a viola right next instructing the meeting. 99 00:05:40,720 --> 00:05:43,599 Speaker 1: Please stop shouting so that we can hear the next 100 00:05:43,600 --> 00:05:46,919 Speaker 1: speaker would be doing, which is requiring Katie l to 101 00:05:47,000 --> 00:05:56,400 Speaker 1: be to be uh arrested, so I can't This is great. 102 00:05:57,720 --> 00:06:06,800 Speaker 1: Why don't they dissolve you took off? So proceed because 103 00:06:06,920 --> 00:06:13,520 Speaker 1: people are yelling. Now this is like the YouTube feeds, 104 00:06:13,600 --> 00:06:16,080 Speaker 1: so they have trouble hearing each other. But we can 105 00:06:16,160 --> 00:06:17,880 Speaker 1: hear both of them. We can hear the speaker too. 106 00:06:18,360 --> 00:06:21,400 Speaker 1: But because they're away from the speaker on the floor, 107 00:06:21,720 --> 00:06:23,840 Speaker 1: I don't think they wear headphones doing that for a while. 108 00:06:23,880 --> 00:06:26,719 Speaker 1: They wear headphones. They need headphones. Their microphones go right 109 00:06:26,760 --> 00:06:29,159 Speaker 1: into the feed that goes out over YouTube, so we 110 00:06:29,200 --> 00:06:30,880 Speaker 1: can hear them. We can hear them. They can't hear 111 00:06:30,880 --> 00:06:34,039 Speaker 1: each o right exactly. And that's what she was complaining about. 112 00:06:34,080 --> 00:06:36,400 Speaker 1: She couldn't hear the city attorney speaking. The guy from 113 00:06:36,440 --> 00:06:43,799 Speaker 1: the city Attorney's office, you're violating Real twelve. This next 114 00:06:43,800 --> 00:06:46,720 Speaker 1: clip may be a keeper. We have a new member 115 00:06:47,040 --> 00:06:50,360 Speaker 1: of the Los Angeles City Council. Her name is Unitis Hernandez. 116 00:06:50,560 --> 00:06:54,800 Speaker 1: Who did she beat Gil Sadillo.

These are the cots. These are 119 00:07:00,880 --> 00:07:04,920 Speaker 1: the Democrats, socialist slash communists. So the reason we're gonna 120 00:07:04,960 --> 00:07:06,800 Speaker 1: play this clip is we have to keep an eye 121 00:07:06,880 --> 00:07:11,200 Speaker 1: on her because apparently she does acknowledge the protesters. Let's 122 00:07:11,200 --> 00:07:15,160 Speaker 1: listen to the short clip.

And 130 00:07:45,560 --> 00:07:47,840 Speaker 1: these are the people who been showing up not only 131 00:07:47,880 --> 00:07:51,160 Speaker 1: at every political event but also for example, when they're 132 00:07:51,200 --> 00:07:56,360 Speaker 1: trying to clear out Echo Park, uh last year. Well yeah, 133 00:07:56,440 --> 00:07:59,520 Speaker 1: this this, this is all the same people.

They've got all these names, 138 00:08:14,320 --> 00:08:15,960 Speaker 1: but those are the ones that have have been shown up 139 00:08:15,960 --> 00:08:17,760 Speaker 1: a lot of these events.

They may cover different geographic 141 00:08:21,280 --> 00:08:24,720 Speaker 1: areas in the city. Well, when it all died down, 142 00:08:25,400 --> 00:08:32,240 Speaker 1: they eventually approved the declaration of emergency on homelessness by 143 00:08:32,320 --> 00:08:36,520 Speaker 1: Mayor Karen Bass, which was the story yesterday.

Netflix did 168 00:10:07,559 --> 00:10:11,280 Speaker 1: a documentary on it, crime Scene, The Vanishing at the 169 00:10:11,280 --> 00:10:14,720 Speaker 1: Cecil Hotel, which covered the true story of the tragic 170 00:10:14,800 --> 00:10:18,960 Speaker 1: death of a Canadian student named Elisa Lamb who died 171 00:10:18,960 --> 00:10:21,440 Speaker 1: there in twenty thirteen. But she's the one that was 172 00:10:21,520 --> 00:10:24,560 Speaker 1: found floating and the water tank on the roof, right. 173 00:10:24,920 --> 00:10:28,000 Speaker 1: But it says here it actually is called America's Hotel 174 00:10:28,120 --> 00:10:31,280 Speaker 1: Death because there have been many tragedies and deaths there 175 00:10:31,280 --> 00:10:34,439 Speaker 1: over the years. And it's one hundred years old by 176 00:10:34,440 --> 00:10:38,120 Speaker 1: the way. Yeah, and Richard Ramirez used to used to 177 00:10:38,200 --> 00:10:41,600 Speaker 1: live there. The night Stalker serial killers did stay at 178 00:10:41,640 --> 00:10:46,800 Speaker 1: the not one but two. Richard Ramirez, the infamous night Stalkers, 179 00:10:46,800 --> 00:10:49,040 Speaker 1: believed to have been several weeks there while conducting his 180 00:10:49,120 --> 00:10:53,040 Speaker 1: home invasion crime spree between nineteen eighty four and nineteen 181 00:10:53,080 --> 00:10:58,120 Speaker 1: eighty five. It's very close to skid Row and when 182 00:10:59,000 --> 00:11:04,240 Speaker 1: the lockdown hit, this businessman had invested some money into 183 00:11:04,240 --> 00:11:09,760 Speaker 1: the hotel, and I guess they decided to go for 184 00:11:09,800 --> 00:11:11,720 Speaker 1: the homeless money, right, because what else are you going 185 00:11:11,760 --> 00:11:15,200 Speaker 1: to do? They renovated the hotel and what they have 186 00:11:15,360 --> 00:11:18,320 Speaker 1: now is six hundred units and they've converted into like 187 00:11:18,360 --> 00:11:23,439 Speaker 1: a single room occupancy type of building with shared bathrooms, 188 00:11:23,920 --> 00:11:27,440 Speaker 1: communal kitchen areas now and you know, try to make 189 00:11:27,440 --> 00:11:31,480 Speaker 1: the big money from all the government sources, the homeless 190 00:11:31,520 --> 00:11:36,440 Speaker 1: vouchers that some of these people get, right, But a 191 00:11:36,559 --> 00:11:40,840 Speaker 1: year later, two thirds of the cecil is unoccupied. Now, 192 00:11:40,840 --> 00:11:45,080 Speaker 1: why is that four hundred units sitting empty? Even with 193 00:11:45,240 --> 00:11:50,079 Speaker 1: solid funding. First person they talked to was Lukisha Lucky, 194 00:11:51,120 --> 00:11:54,400 Speaker 1: who said the confined space kind of bothers me. She's 195 00:11:54,400 --> 00:11:56,600 Speaker 1: been living at her car for several months after her 196 00:11:56,600 --> 00:11:59,360 Speaker 1: house was foreclosed on. She lost her job at a 197 00:11:59,400 --> 00:12:02,360 Speaker 1: care facility. She feared the cramp quarters of the apartment 198 00:12:02,400 --> 00:12:05,280 Speaker 1: wouldn't be good for her mental health and didn't want 199 00:12:05,280 --> 00:12:08,360 Speaker 1: to set herself up for failure. She's okay in a car, 200 00:12:08,840 --> 00:12:11,120 Speaker 1: but you give her an actual room. I sell to 201 00:12:11,280 --> 00:12:14,560 Speaker 1: Crampton here. I don't know. Yeah, I'm going back to 202 00:12:14,640 --> 00:12:20,920 Speaker 1: my front seat. Mistopher Vivier said, not nearly enough space. 203 00:12:21,960 --> 00:12:23,960 Speaker 1: He and his wife Victoria said, we personally like our 204 00:12:24,000 --> 00:12:27,400 Speaker 1: tiny home better than there. All right, go back to 205 00:12:27,440 --> 00:12:30,160 Speaker 1: the tiny home. But it says the ones that have 206 00:12:30,200 --> 00:12:32,120 Speaker 1: actually made their home there have a a few complaints. They 207 00:12:32,120 --> 00:12:33,760 Speaker 1: tend to like it. But it's not bringing in a 208 00:12:33,760 --> 00:12:37,120 Speaker 1: lot of people. Well, it's it's it's been renovated. So 209 00:12:37,160 --> 00:12:41,920 Speaker 1: the rooms are clean. They're not. They're the place, you know. 210 00:12:41,920 --> 00:12:45,640 Speaker 1: The place is not dilapidated, falling apart. I know. But 211 00:12:45,720 --> 00:12:48,720 Speaker 1: do you think they're spooked by all the deaths? Probably 212 00:12:48,760 --> 00:12:52,200 Speaker 1: most of them don't even know. No, this is how 213 00:12:52,240 --> 00:12:55,400 Speaker 1: you deal with with the homeless crowd. But the ones 214 00:12:55,400 --> 00:12:58,640 Speaker 1: who are upright, who aren't whacked out on drugs and 215 00:12:59,000 --> 00:13:02,840 Speaker 1: not whacked out with mental illness, you know, they're really picky. 216 00:13:04,400 --> 00:13:06,640 Speaker 1: It's like, well, I don't know. It seems a little cramped. 217 00:13:07,200 --> 00:13:09,920 Speaker 1: You don't have a job, you don't have a home, 218 00:13:10,320 --> 00:13:12,720 Speaker 1: you're living in your car. What do you mean it's cramped? 219 00:13:13,400 --> 00:13:15,880 Speaker 1: The hell? What else do you want? And we're by 220 00:13:15,920 --> 00:13:19,240 Speaker 1: the way, these people have government vouchers. We gave the 221 00:13:19,600 --> 00:13:24,040 Speaker 1: tax money. The building relies on organizations that work directly 222 00:13:24,040 --> 00:13:27,319 Speaker 1: with the homeless population to fill its units, since all 223 00:13:27,360 --> 00:13:29,760 Speaker 1: of its residents rely on vouchers to pay the rent. 224 00:13:30,760 --> 00:13:34,080 Speaker 1: These groups include the Downtown Women's Center, the Hill Desolese 225 00:13:34,200 --> 00:13:37,920 Speaker 1: Care First Village is another racket Union Rescue, which we 226 00:13:37,960 --> 00:13:41,400 Speaker 1: know about, Hope of the Valley and others. Well, it 227 00:13:41,400 --> 00:13:46,079 Speaker 1: all doesn't explain how come even the Healthcare Foundation took 228 00:13:46,080 --> 00:13:48,480 Speaker 1: out a full page ad saying, why is this hotel 229 00:13:48,520 --> 00:13:53,400 Speaker 1: empty now? And now you have all these organizations and 230 00:13:54,000 --> 00:13:56,720 Speaker 1: the Hotel cecil has four hundred empty rooms at the moment, 231 00:13:56,720 --> 00:14:02,480 Speaker 1: So what's the disconnect here? These organisms supposedly collect qualified 232 00:14:02,520 --> 00:14:10,320 Speaker 1: homeless people who have vouchers. I know, I mean one 233 00:14:10,520 --> 00:14:15,480 Speaker 1: director of must be some sort of California Section eight 234 00:14:15,559 --> 00:14:20,560 Speaker 1: director Carlos van Nadder. He believes people are interested in 235 00:14:20,640 --> 00:14:24,240 Speaker 1: rooms that lack of bathroom in kitchen, single room, occupancy 236 00:14:24,320 --> 00:14:26,880 Speaker 1: units or r s rs can be a hard sell 237 00:14:27,560 --> 00:14:30,720 Speaker 1: in the affordable housing market because of their small size, 238 00:14:31,040 --> 00:14:35,320 Speaker 1: high density and shared facilities. So they're they're rejecting it 239 00:14:36,840 --> 00:14:39,120 Speaker 1: as if you have to share a bathroom in the kitchen, 240 00:14:39,280 --> 00:14:41,000 Speaker 1: So you have a bathroom in a kitchen in your 241 00:14:41,000 --> 00:14:49,640 Speaker 1: car where you got a grill in the trunk, you 242 00:14:49,760 --> 00:14:51,600 Speaker 1: got you got a portable ball in the back seat. 243 00:14:51,680 --> 00:14:56,360 Speaker 1: I don't understand. It also says that it gets a 244 00:14:56,520 --> 00:15:02,520 Speaker 1: very caught in the bureaucracy of all this. Apparently, the 245 00:15:02,640 --> 00:15:05,400 Speaker 1: US Department of Housing and Urban Development awarded seventy thousand 246 00:15:05,440 --> 00:15:09,000 Speaker 1: emergency housing vouchers to housing authorities across the US. Almost 247 00:15:09,080 --> 00:15:13,280 Speaker 1: four thousand came to LA. This means it just gets 248 00:15:13,320 --> 00:15:16,680 Speaker 1: bogged down. There's just so many government entities involved in this. 249 00:15:16,760 --> 00:15:18,600 Speaker 1: It just seems to slow down the process. There are 250 00:15:19,120 --> 00:15:23,080 Speaker 1: more than seven thousand people with a housing voucher in 251 00:15:23,160 --> 00:15:28,520 Speaker 1: their hand looking for housing, and there's four hundred empty 252 00:15:28,560 --> 00:15:31,600 Speaker 1: rooms at that hotel. In July, The Times reported that 253 00:15:31,680 --> 00:15:34,000 Speaker 1: after a year, only five point eight percent of vouchers 254 00:15:34,000 --> 00:15:37,960 Speaker 1: received by the city had been used. As of December eleventh, 255 00:15:37,960 --> 00:15:42,120 Speaker 1: it grew to twenty percent. Several unhoused. People with vouchers 256 00:15:42,160 --> 00:15:46,000 Speaker 1: described significant weight times after applying for an apartment there, 257 00:15:46,040 --> 00:15:51,000 Speaker 1: with some never hearing back at all. Wow, they say 258 00:15:51,000 --> 00:15:53,560 Speaker 1: it sometimes it takes months. Oh yeah, here's a guy 259 00:15:53,640 --> 00:15:57,040 Speaker 1: with the hotel cecil. The building manager says, he starts 260 00:15:57,040 --> 00:16:00,760 Speaker 1: the process. So bits a request to this CLA. What 261 00:16:00,760 --> 00:16:02,000 Speaker 1: does that stand for? Do you have that in the 262 00:16:02,000 --> 00:16:05,720 Speaker 1: story to inspect a potential residence unit, which often takes 263 00:16:05,760 --> 00:16:07,920 Speaker 1: weeks to complete, even when it's scheduled to take place 264 00:16:07,960 --> 00:16:11,280 Speaker 1: within days. Then the h A c LA must submit 265 00:16:11,280 --> 00:16:13,880 Speaker 1: an official rent offer before the tenant can sign the lease. 266 00:16:14,560 --> 00:16:16,640 Speaker 1: Voucher holders are waiting two to five months to get 267 00:16:16,640 --> 00:16:20,280 Speaker 1: the necessary approvals from h A c LA. To five months. 268 00:16:20,600 --> 00:16:24,840 Speaker 1: You have the voucher and you need you need five months? 269 00:16:24,880 --> 00:16:29,120 Speaker 1: Seriously crazy? But again see but there's never any Uh, 270 00:16:30,480 --> 00:16:35,200 Speaker 1: there's no names listed. Who are the bureaucrats who muck 271 00:16:35,280 --> 00:16:38,640 Speaker 1: this up? Who are the people not responding to the applications, 272 00:16:38,640 --> 00:16:41,320 Speaker 1: not responding to the phone calls, not sending out the vouchers? 273 00:16:42,200 --> 00:16:46,560 Speaker 1: Who are they? What are their names? I mean I'm 274 00:16:46,600 --> 00:16:51,200 Speaker 1: looking up like the president and CEO of h A 275 00:16:51,360 --> 00:16:56,720 Speaker 1: c LA, Douglas Guthrie. Oh, my god, he's been running 276 00:16:56,760 --> 00:17:00,520 Speaker 1: this organization for over ten years. Wow, one of the 277 00:17:00,600 --> 00:17:06,280 Speaker 1: nation's largest and leading public housing authorities, Homeless Industrial Complex. Yeah, 278 00:17:06,320 --> 00:17:09,439 Speaker 1: responding for sixty five hundred public housing units. Then why 279 00:17:09,480 --> 00:17:12,520 Speaker 1: does it take five months for somebody to get placed 280 00:17:12,560 --> 00:17:15,879 Speaker 1: with this organization? What's this Douglas Guthrie doing all day? 281 00:17:17,040 --> 00:17:21,720 Speaker 1: Oh he is a degree in sociology, of course, specializing 282 00:17:21,720 --> 00:17:26,680 Speaker 1: in urban studies. Well, what's he studying? You got four 283 00:17:26,760 --> 00:17:31,040 Speaker 1: hundred hotel rooms? Fill them up? Supposely there's a lot 284 00:17:31,040 --> 00:17:34,479 Speaker 1: of red tape with federal government funded vouchers. Red tape 285 00:17:34,880 --> 00:17:39,359 Speaker 1: six line phrase, because that doesn't describe what the problem is. 286 00:17:40,680 --> 00:17:43,640 Speaker 1: Why aren't they approving? Why aren't they signing off? Not 287 00:17:43,760 --> 00:17:47,359 Speaker 1: enough people hired? A government state of emergency is supposed 288 00:17:47,400 --> 00:17:48,920 Speaker 1: to come in now, right, isn't this a kind of 289 00:17:48,960 --> 00:17:52,119 Speaker 1: red tape it's supposed to cut Karen Basson's state of emergency. 290 00:17:52,400 --> 00:17:55,000 Speaker 1: This is a perfect example. We got roles and rolls 291 00:17:55,000 --> 00:18:02,320 Speaker 1: of red tape right here in this story. Um, it's 292 00:18:02,359 --> 00:18:05,680 Speaker 1: a great example. Though. Oh it says the new administration 293 00:18:05,720 --> 00:18:08,480 Speaker 1: has reached out to us at the hotel. Well, it was, 294 00:18:08,560 --> 00:18:11,680 Speaker 1: frankly the Garcetti administration. Never did According to somebody in 295 00:18:11,680 --> 00:18:15,080 Speaker 1: this story, is every story that comes back about Garcetti 296 00:18:15,400 --> 00:18:18,399 Speaker 1: is that he did nothing right. The sidewalk story a 297 00:18:18,400 --> 00:18:21,040 Speaker 1: few minutes ago, he did nothing. I just read a 298 00:18:21,080 --> 00:18:24,480 Speaker 1: story about the ports. He did nothing right with that. 299 00:18:24,640 --> 00:18:27,919 Speaker 1: The dispute between the unions, yes, and the companies that 300 00:18:28,000 --> 00:18:30,880 Speaker 1: run the ports, he did nothing. Oh, I don't think 301 00:18:30,880 --> 00:18:34,560 Speaker 1: he likes controversy. The housing situation, he did nothing. Everything 302 00:18:34,640 --> 00:18:38,840 Speaker 1: is yeah, we approached the Garcetti administration, but they didn't respond. 303 00:18:39,560 --> 00:18:43,480 Speaker 1: What was he doing all day? Just having domestic disputes 304 00:18:43,480 --> 00:18:47,679 Speaker 1: with all his special friends. Here's here's here's a headline 305 00:18:47,720 --> 00:18:50,240 Speaker 1: in this middle of the story, untangling the red tape. 306 00:18:50,280 --> 00:18:54,600 Speaker 1: There's that phrase again. Well, that's what her emergency order 307 00:18:54,680 --> 00:18:57,280 Speaker 1: is going to change, right, maybe tomorrow they only move 308 00:18:57,320 --> 00:19:02,000 Speaker 1: in five people a week because this uh, one of 309 00:19:02,000 --> 00:19:03,640 Speaker 1: these guys, the guy who owns the building. You can't 310 00:19:03,640 --> 00:19:06,000 Speaker 1: feel the building without the help of city agencies and 311 00:19:06,080 --> 00:19:10,240 Speaker 1: nonprofit groups. He blames their lack of coordination and cooperation. 312 00:19:11,400 --> 00:19:13,359 Speaker 1: He says, what partnership do we have with the public 313 00:19:13,440 --> 00:19:16,520 Speaker 1: right now? We've got nothing. We've got minimal help. Really. 314 00:19:18,320 --> 00:19:21,439 Speaker 1: Mike Neely, a former LOSSA commissioner says, what's happening with 315 00:19:21,480 --> 00:19:24,119 Speaker 1: the cecil is another example of a broken system, bogged 316 00:19:24,119 --> 00:19:28,919 Speaker 1: down by bureaucracy. Even when the housing is available, and 317 00:19:29,000 --> 00:19:32,360 Speaker 1: even when when they have vouchers, you don't have like 318 00:19:32,359 --> 00:19:33,840 Speaker 1: in a lot of cases, you have vouchers, but a 319 00:19:33,880 --> 00:19:36,760 Speaker 1: lot of landlords don't want to honor the vouchers. They 320 00:19:36,760 --> 00:19:40,120 Speaker 1: don't want to want. The guy who owns the building 321 00:19:40,400 --> 00:19:44,679 Speaker 1: renovated it just for homeless people's vouchers. Right, he created 322 00:19:44,760 --> 00:19:47,919 Speaker 1: these rooms. Yes, you have to share bathroom facilities and 323 00:19:48,000 --> 00:19:51,119 Speaker 1: you have to share kitchen facilities, but that creates more space, 324 00:19:51,200 --> 00:19:53,919 Speaker 1: more rooms for people. He can make more money and 325 00:19:54,040 --> 00:19:57,520 Speaker 1: it works. The takeaway is it's a combination of red 326 00:19:57,520 --> 00:19:59,479 Speaker 1: tape and then some of the people are refusing.

I just got word that 347 00:21:02,359 --> 00:21:06,600 Speaker 1: that organization that bureaucracy was talking about which has a 348 00:21:06,640 --> 00:21:09,960 Speaker 1: great difficulty in getting homeless people in the homes is 349 00:21:09,960 --> 00:21:13,240 Speaker 1: the Housing Authority of Los Angeles and it's the largest 350 00:21:13,280 --> 00:21:17,280 Speaker 1: number of public housing units in LA west of the Mississippi. 351 00:21:17,880 --> 00:21:21,600 Speaker 1: So it's one of the big organizations, big bureaucracies that's 352 00:21:21,600 --> 00:21:25,400 Speaker 1: supposed to get homeless people into shelter and we got 353 00:21:25,400 --> 00:21:28,600 Speaker 1: the four hundred rooms sitting empty at the Cecil Hotel, 354 00:21:29,160 --> 00:21:31,120 Speaker 1: and the owner of the hotel is pulling his hair 355 00:21:31,160 --> 00:21:33,640 Speaker 1: out because he renovated the place just for the homeless 356 00:21:33,920 --> 00:21:36,760 Speaker 1: and he can't get the bureaucracy to cooperate and send 357 00:21:36,840 --> 00:21:40,359 Speaker 1: in the residents. And we're also finding out is the 358 00:21:40,400 --> 00:21:43,360 Speaker 1: homeless more and more rejecting certain types of living spaces. 359 00:21:43,680 --> 00:21:47,040 Speaker 1: They don't like shelters, and now they're rejecting this hotel 360 00:21:47,160 --> 00:21:51,119 Speaker 1: because it's a shared bathroom and a shared kitchen, its facility. 361 00:21:51,520 --> 00:21:56,159 Speaker 1: So I mentioned this before. They want fancy homes built 362 00:21:56,200 --> 00:21:59,320 Speaker 1: for just themselves and all amenities included, or they're going 363 00:21:59,359 --> 00:22:01,359 Speaker 1: to stick on the store, eaton in the tent. Yeah, 364 00:22:01,359 --> 00:22:03,439 Speaker 1: the bizarre as that sounds, that's where we're headed with 365 00:22:03,440 --> 00:22:05,960 Speaker 1: a number of them. I know, at what point do 366 00:22:06,000 --> 00:22:08,040 Speaker 1: you say, the hell with this, the hell with this, 367 00:22:08,200 --> 00:22:11,000 Speaker 1: Just get off the sidewalks. They keep moving on. Just 368 00:22:11,240 --> 00:22:14,040 Speaker 1: shoot shoot. I heard one of those politicians say again, 369 00:22:14,200 --> 00:22:16,040 Speaker 1: all we do is move the problem to another neighborhood. 370 00:22:16,040 --> 00:22:19,359 Speaker 1: Just keep moving it, because if you harass somebody enough times, 371 00:22:19,400 --> 00:22:23,200 Speaker 1: they'll change their life decisions until they run out of neighborhoods. Good. 372 00:22:23,280 --> 00:22:25,080 Speaker 1: They go to another state, on another country, go to 373 00:22:25,119 --> 00:22:33,000 Speaker 1: slab city, go away. Today is one day, one day 374 00:22:33,400 --> 00:22:37,439 Speaker 1: what happened, brain glitch. One month since those college students 375 00:22:37,440 --> 00:22:41,080 Speaker 1: were murdered in Idaho. That's right, November thirteenth. Today is 376 00:22:41,080 --> 00:22:46,600 Speaker 1: December thirteenth. Here is a recap. Police do not believe 377 00:22:46,760 --> 00:22:48,840 Speaker 1: any of the following people are involved in the murders. 378 00:22:48,920 --> 00:22:51,960 Speaker 1: You want to hear the list? Yeah, the two surviving roommates. 379 00:22:52,040 --> 00:22:55,000 Speaker 1: All right, that's quite a story, right. They apparently came 380 00:22:55,040 --> 00:22:58,240 Speaker 1: home earlier that night and they slept through whatever happened. 381 00:22:58,240 --> 00:23:01,920 Speaker 1: Now we're on a different floor, granted, but still the 382 00:23:01,960 --> 00:23:04,840 Speaker 1: man seen in the grub truck surveillance video who we 383 00:23:04,880 --> 00:23:07,080 Speaker 1: talked about the other day. That guy that guys a 384 00:23:07,240 --> 00:23:11,200 Speaker 1: no the hoodie guy, right, the private party driver who 385 00:23:11,200 --> 00:23:15,000 Speaker 1: took Madison in Kayley home on November thirteenth. The man 386 00:23:15,080 --> 00:23:18,399 Speaker 1: Kaylee and Madison called multiple times and the early morning 387 00:23:18,400 --> 00:23:21,639 Speaker 1: hours of November thirteen. That man is supposedly the on 388 00:23:22,680 --> 00:23:25,520 Speaker 1: off again boyfriend I think of Kaylee. I'm not sure, 389 00:23:25,640 --> 00:23:29,159 Speaker 1: yes it was Kaylee. Any of the people inside the 390 00:23:29,240 --> 00:23:32,160 Speaker 1: residence when nine one one was called because the two 391 00:23:32,200 --> 00:23:35,240 Speaker 1: roommates apparently they didn't go in the room. They must 392 00:23:35,280 --> 00:23:37,439 Speaker 1: have knocked on the bedroom door and they couldn't rouse him. 393 00:23:37,480 --> 00:23:39,840 Speaker 1: So they called some of their friends over to help, 394 00:23:39,880 --> 00:23:42,480 Speaker 1: and then eventually one of them called nine one one 395 00:23:42,680 --> 00:23:46,760 Speaker 1: is what happened. They all the individual on the lease 396 00:23:47,119 --> 00:23:49,280 Speaker 1: at the house who moved out of the residence before 397 00:23:49,280 --> 00:23:52,639 Speaker 1: the school years started and was not present at the 398 00:23:52,720 --> 00:23:56,439 Speaker 1: time of the incident. The other thing that happened more 399 00:23:56,480 --> 00:23:58,760 Speaker 1: recently is they're trying to speak with the occupant of 400 00:23:58,760 --> 00:24:04,360 Speaker 1: a white twenty tolant with and this is a tough 401 00:24:04,400 --> 00:24:07,080 Speaker 1: part an unknown license plates. All right, did you see 402 00:24:07,080 --> 00:24:11,520 Speaker 1: the latest on that? No, there is more. There is 403 00:24:11,680 --> 00:24:17,520 Speaker 1: gas station surveillance footage eight hours worth, and the overnight 404 00:24:17,560 --> 00:24:21,679 Speaker 1: assistant manager has been analyzing the tapes during her off hours. 405 00:24:21,800 --> 00:24:23,480 Speaker 1: I was trying to figure out the plate and get 406 00:24:23,480 --> 00:24:26,359 Speaker 1: a track on the car, she claims. On the video 407 00:24:26,480 --> 00:24:29,159 Speaker 1: she saw she saw a white sedan whizz by it 408 00:24:29,200 --> 00:24:34,560 Speaker 1: around three forty five am. Muh, she spotted the car, 409 00:24:34,640 --> 00:24:39,480 Speaker 1: emailed a screen shot to police and the car was 410 00:24:39,560 --> 00:24:42,879 Speaker 1: driving fast down Highway eight before turning on a side street. 411 00:24:44,400 --> 00:24:47,600 Speaker 1: Don't know if it was a hyunday, don't know if 412 00:24:47,600 --> 00:24:50,040 Speaker 1: it had anything to do or with the murders, or 413 00:24:50,200 --> 00:24:53,679 Speaker 1: is just another another coincidence. We're at the point now 414 00:24:53,680 --> 00:24:56,720 Speaker 1: where people are grasping at any possible clue. It's like, 415 00:24:56,800 --> 00:24:59,240 Speaker 1: this could be it a speeding car. Well there was 416 00:24:59,320 --> 00:25:03,040 Speaker 1: there was another video that caused Oh yes, hubbub. This 417 00:25:03,080 --> 00:25:07,240 Speaker 1: one is a video. It's actually bodycam video from the police. 418 00:25:07,960 --> 00:25:13,040 Speaker 1: They stopped some suspected underaged drinkers, apparently not far from 419 00:25:13,080 --> 00:25:16,159 Speaker 1: the house. Several shadowy figures can be seen walking in 420 00:25:16,200 --> 00:25:19,000 Speaker 1: the background of the footage, shot around two fifty eight 421 00:25:19,240 --> 00:25:22,000 Speaker 1: m about a tenth of a mile from the home 422 00:25:22,040 --> 00:25:25,000 Speaker 1: where the four students were killed. By the way police 423 00:25:25,040 --> 00:25:29,280 Speaker 1: today dismissed that too. Shadowy figures, But it's their own 424 00:25:29,280 --> 00:25:31,879 Speaker 1: bodycam footage. So the police were there. But right, what 425 00:25:31,960 --> 00:25:33,840 Speaker 1: are they trying to say after they're encountered with the police, 426 00:25:33,880 --> 00:25:36,400 Speaker 1: These underaged drinkers went to the home and stabbed four kids. 427 00:25:36,560 --> 00:25:40,480 Speaker 1: Well I thought I thought there were these figures behind 428 00:25:40,840 --> 00:25:45,760 Speaker 1: the ones who were being arrested, oh a distance. Oh 429 00:25:45,960 --> 00:25:48,120 Speaker 1: I did I misread that? Oh, maybe you're right, several 430 00:25:48,160 --> 00:25:50,479 Speaker 1: shadowy can be seen walking in the You're right, the 431 00:25:50,560 --> 00:25:55,200 Speaker 1: background of the footage. Yeah, okay, you're right, right, three 432 00:25:55,280 --> 00:25:59,040 Speaker 1: students were stopped by plane clothes officers. They were not 433 00:25:59,119 --> 00:26:02,800 Speaker 1: involved in the crime. But online sleuths have noticed people 434 00:26:02,840 --> 00:26:06,639 Speaker 1: walking two houses down from the off campus. Seems like 435 00:26:06,640 --> 00:26:08,360 Speaker 1: there was a lot of action on the street at 436 00:26:08,359 --> 00:26:11,080 Speaker 1: three in the morning. That's a Saturday night. Yeah, I 437 00:26:11,119 --> 00:26:12,960 Speaker 1: know how that students do. They party to a lot 438 00:26:12,960 --> 00:26:15,560 Speaker 1: of hours. Yeah, I know, I'm getting getting The picture 439 00:26:15,600 --> 00:26:19,200 Speaker 1: is becoming clearer now, right, that this really was an 440 00:26:19,200 --> 00:26:22,040 Speaker 1: active area even at three in the morning. That would 441 00:26:22,040 --> 00:26:23,720 Speaker 1: makes sense. I just I just didn't know. You know, 442 00:26:23,800 --> 00:26:31,080 Speaker 1: sometimes j you have areas that are more crazy than others. Yeah. 443 00:26:31,240 --> 00:26:36,400 Speaker 1: So the online sleuths think this is a great lead, Well, 444 00:26:36,480 --> 00:26:41,520 Speaker 1: they've had a lot of those. It says here, during 445 00:26:41,560 --> 00:26:44,080 Speaker 1: the time frame of the murderers, there were people in 446 00:26:44,119 --> 00:26:47,679 Speaker 1: the general vicinity between the people with law enforcement and 447 00:26:47,720 --> 00:26:49,760 Speaker 1: the people in the background of the body camp footage, 448 00:26:49,840 --> 00:26:52,600 Speaker 1: there's about half a dozen people. The importance is that 449 00:26:52,640 --> 00:26:55,399 Speaker 1: they may have witnessed something unbeknownst to them. How do 450 00:26:55,440 --> 00:26:59,159 Speaker 1: you witness something unbeknownst to you? Well, it's like that 451 00:26:59,200 --> 00:27:01,440 Speaker 1: guy that decided he heard a scream, remember that story 452 00:27:01,520 --> 00:27:03,520 Speaker 1: last week, and he reported it like four days later 453 00:27:03,600 --> 00:27:06,760 Speaker 1: or a week later, or something that's kind of unbeknownst 454 00:27:06,800 --> 00:27:10,880 Speaker 1: until something gets jogged. Okay, yeah, a little while back, Yeah, 455 00:27:10,920 --> 00:27:13,480 Speaker 1: I heard a scream there or the police. Always in 456 00:27:13,520 --> 00:27:16,919 Speaker 1: the detective shows, they'll say to possible, is there anything 457 00:27:16,920 --> 00:27:19,240 Speaker 1: to remember, anything at all, any little detail about that 458 00:27:19,359 --> 00:27:22,399 Speaker 1: night that may seem insignificant to you but could be big. 459 00:27:22,480 --> 00:27:25,120 Speaker 1: It's like that kind of thing. Yeah, yeah, oh yeah, 460 00:27:25,119 --> 00:27:28,160 Speaker 1: there's a guy with a knife. Oh yeah, the guy 461 00:27:28,160 --> 00:27:31,800 Speaker 1: with a bloody knife walking down the street and forgotten it. Now. 462 00:27:31,800 --> 00:27:35,040 Speaker 1: It says they can use self cell tower data to 463 00:27:35,119 --> 00:27:37,320 Speaker 1: track which phones were in the area at the time. 464 00:27:37,680 --> 00:27:39,639 Speaker 1: They can see what phone numbers were attached to a 465 00:27:39,680 --> 00:27:42,560 Speaker 1: specific cell site. Since we know that there are two 466 00:27:42,600 --> 00:27:45,280 Speaker 1: cops standing there who probably have cell phones, they can 467 00:27:45,359 --> 00:27:49,760 Speaker 1: narrow down other people within that general facinity. So you 468 00:27:49,800 --> 00:27:52,240 Speaker 1: can always be tracked down after the fact if you 469 00:27:52,280 --> 00:27:55,199 Speaker 1: have your phone on you, if it's on, yes, I 470 00:27:55,200 --> 00:27:56,800 Speaker 1: guess you can. I gotta make a note of that. 471 00:27:58,400 --> 00:28:02,000 Speaker 1: All right, we got more outdo something illegal, sir. Johnny 472 00:28:02,080 --> 00:28:04,480 Speaker 1: Ken Show kf I Am six forty Live Everywhere, the 473 00:28:04,480 --> 00:28:08,840 Speaker 1: iHeartRadio app Well, Stories of the Bazaar. We have a 474 00:28:08,840 --> 00:28:12,679 Speaker 1: woman in Las Vegas who was arrested for a pretty 475 00:28:12,720 --> 00:28:18,400 Speaker 1: big case of theft. Apparently, Sarah Richards, who was originally 476 00:28:18,440 --> 00:28:22,240 Speaker 1: from Maryland, was at the Aria Hotel in Las Vegas 477 00:28:22,280 --> 00:28:25,720 Speaker 1: Sunday morning and a man called nine one to report 478 00:28:26,280 --> 00:28:31,040 Speaker 1: that he believes that she stole his watch worth twelve 479 00:28:31,640 --> 00:28:35,440 Speaker 1: thousand dollars. Now you can probably guess this, being Vegas, 480 00:28:35,800 --> 00:28:39,400 Speaker 1: how these two got together. He met her somewhere in 481 00:28:39,440 --> 00:28:41,800 Speaker 1: the hotel. Whether it's a bar, I don't know, and 482 00:28:41,920 --> 00:28:45,760 Speaker 1: invited her to his room. They started to cuddle and 483 00:28:46,000 --> 00:28:49,200 Speaker 1: Sarah Richards told the man that you should take off 484 00:28:49,200 --> 00:28:51,760 Speaker 1: the Rolex watch. It could cut me while we cuddle. 485 00:28:52,480 --> 00:28:55,320 Speaker 1: So he takes off the watch, places it under his pillow. 486 00:28:55,600 --> 00:28:59,520 Speaker 1: He drank more wine because she kept insisting. At some 487 00:28:59,600 --> 00:29:02,240 Speaker 1: point he notices the watch is missing. Yeah, but he 488 00:29:02,280 --> 00:29:05,160 Speaker 1: goes into a panic. He follows her down the hall, 489 00:29:05,640 --> 00:29:10,160 Speaker 1: down the elevator into the lobby, alert security.

You can't trust 518 00:30:57,200 --> 00:31:01,440 Speaker 1: a Las Vegas prostitute, can you believe it? The other 519 00:31:01,480 --> 00:31:06,080 Speaker 1: bizarre story involves Twitter. Elon Musk of course, has taken over, 520 00:31:06,160 --> 00:31:08,440 Speaker 1: laid off a whole bunch of people. It's been tough 521 00:31:08,480 --> 00:31:10,920 Speaker 1: to work. There was the last time. Oh yeah, the 522 00:31:11,000 --> 00:31:13,640 Speaker 1: story last week that they're they've actually installed like bedrooms 523 00:31:13,680 --> 00:31:16,720 Speaker 1: so people can take naps. They're working so many hours. Now, 524 00:31:16,760 --> 00:31:23,080 Speaker 1: they're going to auction off Twitter memorabilia. Over a thousand items, 525 00:31:23,080 --> 00:31:28,360 Speaker 1: including a statue of the Bluebird logo, a bunch of 526 00:31:28,440 --> 00:31:32,760 Speaker 1: kitchenware and furniture, will be sold in an auction featuring 527 00:31:33,000 --> 00:31:37,000 Speaker 1: surplus corporate office assets of Twitter bigs. Will start at 528 00:31:37,000 --> 00:31:39,680 Speaker 1: twenty five dollars, range up to over a thousand dollars 529 00:31:39,680 --> 00:31:43,120 Speaker 1: for some of the larger lots. There's a rumor that 530 00:31:43,120 --> 00:31:45,640 Speaker 1: he's going to move Twitter out of San Francisco. And 531 00:31:45,760 --> 00:31:49,200 Speaker 1: I think that last story about how they're investigating him 532 00:31:49,200 --> 00:31:51,960 Speaker 1: for having the beds. What is the thing I saw 533 00:31:52,080 --> 00:31:58,800 Speaker 1: he's not going to pay taxes? Yeah, but something but 534 00:31:58,880 --> 00:32:04,920 Speaker 1: the taxes too. Think it's the taxes too, Okay, I think, Um, 535 00:32:05,400 --> 00:32:07,080 Speaker 1: I don't know, let me see, let me see if 536 00:32:07,080 --> 00:32:11,200 Speaker 1: I could quickly find it. Yeah, And some people believe 537 00:32:11,280 --> 00:32:13,840 Speaker 1: that this has nothing to do with cost cutting measures. 538 00:32:13,880 --> 00:32:17,760 Speaker 1: Maybe he just wants to redesign the place with new 539 00:32:17,800 --> 00:32:19,840 Speaker 1: furniture and new stuff and just wants to auction off 540 00:32:19,840 --> 00:32:22,560 Speaker 1: the old stuff, not taxes rent. He has stopped paying 541 00:32:22,640 --> 00:32:26,880 Speaker 1: rent on the San Francisco offices. They're still largely empty, 542 00:32:26,880 --> 00:32:30,640 Speaker 1: aren't they. Or no, he demanded everybody come back. That's right. Yeah, well, 543 00:32:30,680 --> 00:32:35,920 Speaker 1: I mean he's he's slashing costs tremendously because the what 544 00:32:36,080 --> 00:32:39,280 Speaker 1: it was losing money all this time. They were, and 545 00:32:39,320 --> 00:32:42,360 Speaker 1: that's why he refers to as his extremely hardcore vision. 546 00:32:42,360 --> 00:32:45,840 Speaker 1: It's called Twitter two point zero. Supposedly three quarters of 547 00:32:45,880 --> 00:32:48,880 Speaker 1: the staff is gone. They either quit or he fired them, 548 00:32:49,280 --> 00:32:53,280 Speaker 1: and it's still running. You imagine getting rid of three 549 00:32:53,360 --> 00:32:57,600 Speaker 1: quarters of the company and nobody's reporting any any trouble. 550 00:32:57,680 --> 00:33:00,000 Speaker 1: Everyone's well, he got rid of a lot of the censors, right, 551 00:33:00,760 --> 00:33:02,960 Speaker 1: isn't that a lot of the employment there. I think 552 00:33:02,960 --> 00:33:05,120 Speaker 1: that check it up on what you put on. Seventy 553 00:33:05,160 --> 00:33:11,440 Speaker 1: five percent of the company were content moderators. Content moderate right, right, 554 00:33:13,200 --> 00:33:16,920 Speaker 1: and they're all gone. So yeah, um, I mean, what 555 00:33:16,960 --> 00:33:18,720 Speaker 1: do you really have to do? It's kind of once 556 00:33:18,720 --> 00:33:21,360 Speaker 1: you get the technology going, it's just people posting their Twitter. 557 00:33:21,720 --> 00:33:24,880 Speaker 1: You just need the engineers to maintain it the infrastructure. 558 00:33:25,200 --> 00:33:29,080 Speaker 1: I guess. So, all right, Conway's here and Mark Thompson. 559 00:33:29,440 --> 00:33:31,880 Speaker 1: Mark was here and here and he vaulted, he split. 560 00:33:31,920 --> 00:33:34,640 Speaker 1: He's very emotional over this.
