1 00:00:00,160 --> 00:00:02,800 Speaker 1: One more quay word for the day here on K 2 00:00:03,000 --> 00:00:06,160 Speaker 1: five pops up at five twenty. Listen for the word, 3 00:00:06,240 --> 00:00:10,000 Speaker 1: follow the instructions and maybe maybe you will win a 4 00:00:10,119 --> 00:00:15,000 Speaker 1: thousand dollars. All right, So, today, one week from election day, 5 00:00:15,840 --> 00:00:18,880 Speaker 1: more results are being dumped by the Eli County Registrar 6 00:00:18,880 --> 00:00:21,079 Speaker 1: of Voters as they continue to sort through the mail 7 00:00:21,120 --> 00:00:23,639 Speaker 1: in ballots or ballots dropped off on election day or whatever, 8 00:00:24,560 --> 00:00:28,840 Speaker 1: and the incumbent Eli County Sheriff Alex being in Aueva, 9 00:00:28,880 --> 00:00:33,000 Speaker 1: has officially conceded the race to his opponent, Robert Luna, 10 00:00:33,320 --> 00:00:35,440 Speaker 1: even described here in the Elsa Gondo Times as a 11 00:00:35,520 --> 00:00:38,800 Speaker 1: little known retired police chief from Long Beach who left 12 00:00:39,320 --> 00:00:43,680 Speaker 1: Long Beach a disaster. Yeah, so we're going to talk 13 00:00:43,720 --> 00:00:49,400 Speaker 1: about it now with sheriff being Aueva Sheriff. Well, I'm 14 00:00:49,400 --> 00:00:55,520 Speaker 1: really sad. I'm really sorry you didn't win. I appreciate 15 00:00:55,600 --> 00:00:59,440 Speaker 1: there you guys, and thank you for your support. What 16 00:01:00,760 --> 00:01:05,240 Speaker 1: how are you feeling right now? I'm feeling good. My 17 00:01:05,280 --> 00:01:07,400 Speaker 1: wife and I were doing good. I think we got 18 00:01:07,880 --> 00:01:10,280 Speaker 1: a monkey off our back in terms of just fighting 19 00:01:11,400 --> 00:01:14,760 Speaker 1: a massive corrupt machine that people are just starting to 20 00:01:14,840 --> 00:01:19,320 Speaker 1: appreciate the size of it. When you ran four years ago. 21 00:01:19,920 --> 00:01:22,720 Speaker 1: How different were things now that you've been sheriff for 22 00:01:22,760 --> 00:01:25,280 Speaker 1: four years. What did you discover that was the most 23 00:01:25,360 --> 00:01:31,600 Speaker 1: shocking to you? How literally the size of the corruption 24 00:01:31,640 --> 00:01:35,800 Speaker 1: and county government is breathtaking. I think four years ago 25 00:01:35,880 --> 00:01:38,200 Speaker 1: we caught him off guard because they never envisioned the 26 00:01:38,240 --> 00:01:40,880 Speaker 1: fact that someone could come out of nowhere and take 27 00:01:40,920 --> 00:01:44,280 Speaker 1: one of the plums of county government away from them, 28 00:01:44,319 --> 00:01:47,840 Speaker 1: and we did. But then, of course they reorganized and 29 00:01:48,120 --> 00:01:52,400 Speaker 1: dedicate himself to four years of bashing me and describe 30 00:01:52,440 --> 00:01:55,640 Speaker 1: the official describe as the County Board of Supervisors the 31 00:01:55,640 --> 00:01:59,920 Speaker 1: outside One of the times, what were they Why were 32 00:01:59,880 --> 00:02:02,560 Speaker 1: they afraid of you? Like? What did you do to 33 00:02:02,680 --> 00:02:05,800 Speaker 1: make them go on alert and try to get you? 34 00:02:08,200 --> 00:02:11,280 Speaker 1: My cardinal sin was I actually make decisions based on 35 00:02:11,320 --> 00:02:14,600 Speaker 1: what is right and what is wrong, not in what's 36 00:02:14,639 --> 00:02:18,240 Speaker 1: politically expedient. You cannot have an honest man and ident 37 00:02:18,320 --> 00:02:24,360 Speaker 1: of thieves. Well, most particular policies did you clash the most? 38 00:02:24,480 --> 00:02:27,400 Speaker 1: Was it homelessness, crime, to fund the police, the budget, 39 00:02:27,440 --> 00:02:32,120 Speaker 1: all these things. It was the budget, It was on 40 00:02:32,240 --> 00:02:35,720 Speaker 1: emergency management at the start of COVID, it was on 41 00:02:35,880 --> 00:02:40,160 Speaker 1: personnel decisions, it was on hiring, you name it. And 42 00:02:40,240 --> 00:02:43,359 Speaker 1: they always had an angle that sort of satisfied their 43 00:02:44,080 --> 00:02:47,440 Speaker 1: political needs. And I was told early on by an 44 00:02:47,440 --> 00:02:50,080 Speaker 1: elected official from the city, you can get reelected or 45 00:02:50,080 --> 00:02:54,239 Speaker 1: you can be a reform or your choice. In other words, 46 00:02:54,240 --> 00:02:59,280 Speaker 1: you cannot win against the machine pretty much. And that 47 00:02:59,320 --> 00:03:02,480 Speaker 1: person turned out to be very accurate. However, this is 48 00:03:02,520 --> 00:03:05,240 Speaker 1: just a battle. There's a bigger war, and now that 49 00:03:05,360 --> 00:03:11,360 Speaker 1: the progressive the wokees are claiming victory, they need to 50 00:03:11,400 --> 00:03:14,600 Speaker 1: actually deliver. They're great at destroying things, but they don't 51 00:03:14,639 --> 00:03:17,680 Speaker 1: have anything to say let's do this is what we've 52 00:03:17,680 --> 00:03:20,560 Speaker 1: seen so far is frightening, and now let's see how 53 00:03:20,600 --> 00:03:24,360 Speaker 1: they deliver. Yeah. I don't think people realize that the 54 00:03:24,400 --> 00:03:27,639 Speaker 1: only county board of supervisors literally wants to shut down 55 00:03:27,680 --> 00:03:29,960 Speaker 1: all the county jails. They want to send people to 56 00:03:29,960 --> 00:03:32,440 Speaker 1: all sorts of what they think are diversion programs. I'm 57 00:03:32,440 --> 00:03:35,240 Speaker 1: not even sure what those are. This is going to 58 00:03:35,280 --> 00:03:38,360 Speaker 1: be a big impact on public safety if this sheriff 59 00:03:38,400 --> 00:03:43,360 Speaker 1: carries all this out on that. Yeah, the prospects look 60 00:03:43,400 --> 00:03:46,400 Speaker 1: pretty grand because he's gonna do what you know, puppets do. 61 00:03:46,560 --> 00:03:49,600 Speaker 1: He'll know he'll thank them for their leadership as a 62 00:03:49,680 --> 00:03:52,160 Speaker 1: scroll over, and that's probably what we're going to see 63 00:03:52,320 --> 00:03:56,440 Speaker 1: repeated every Tuesday. He I mean Robert Luna, he left 64 00:03:56,440 --> 00:03:59,480 Speaker 1: the Lung Beach a mess. I mean, the way he 65 00:03:59,840 --> 00:04:03,640 Speaker 1: handled that George Floyd rights in twenty twenty was absolute 66 00:04:03,720 --> 00:04:09,640 Speaker 1: disgrace and the disaster. M you, you're right there. And 67 00:04:09,680 --> 00:04:11,720 Speaker 1: I read through all the times. I mean, they had 68 00:04:11,720 --> 00:04:14,040 Speaker 1: all the articles written for today, just waiting for me 69 00:04:14,120 --> 00:04:17,640 Speaker 1: to say what I said, And it was comical listening 70 00:04:17,640 --> 00:04:20,719 Speaker 1: all the hit pieces. And they just cannot accept the 71 00:04:20,760 --> 00:04:24,240 Speaker 1: fact that they're just the mouthpiece of the board and 72 00:04:25,000 --> 00:04:30,360 Speaker 1: that they're untouchable and they're beyond reproach. And so who 73 00:04:30,360 --> 00:04:32,039 Speaker 1: am I? Who do the hell do I think I 74 00:04:32,080 --> 00:04:35,880 Speaker 1: am to actually challenge the board? And so it's the 75 00:04:35,920 --> 00:04:38,000 Speaker 1: members of the board. And then I guess it must 76 00:04:38,040 --> 00:04:43,280 Speaker 1: be a lot of faceless, nameless bureaucrats in the system. 77 00:04:43,360 --> 00:04:46,320 Speaker 1: Oh they are. There's platoons of them in every single 78 00:04:46,400 --> 00:04:49,640 Speaker 1: facet of county government. You look at the CEO's office, 79 00:04:49,720 --> 00:04:52,280 Speaker 1: you look at the Auditor controller, you look at the 80 00:04:52,839 --> 00:04:56,960 Speaker 1: DA's office. Now and then the justice deputies of each 81 00:04:57,000 --> 00:05:00,760 Speaker 1: board member. They write the policies in the board stamps them. 82 00:05:00,880 --> 00:05:03,599 Speaker 1: And just like when they put Measure A on the ballot, 83 00:05:04,160 --> 00:05:06,159 Speaker 1: there's not a single attorney to sign their name to 84 00:05:06,240 --> 00:05:09,240 Speaker 1: Measure A. Not even a legal announces, hey, this constitution 85 00:05:09,400 --> 00:05:12,080 Speaker 1: not They did not care, and that's the one that 86 00:05:12,160 --> 00:05:16,960 Speaker 1: gives them the right to remove a sheriff. Yep, exactly, 87 00:05:17,640 --> 00:05:24,720 Speaker 1: they did not care. What are you going to do next? Wow? 88 00:05:24,800 --> 00:05:27,159 Speaker 1: I got an awful lot of opportunities to do a 89 00:05:27,160 --> 00:05:28,640 Speaker 1: lot of things. Want to make it a little bit 90 00:05:28,640 --> 00:05:30,600 Speaker 1: of rest in little R and R, which my wife 91 00:05:30,600 --> 00:05:35,320 Speaker 1: and I haven't had for a long time. And we're 92 00:05:35,360 --> 00:05:37,479 Speaker 1: going to be very busy because we have a very 93 00:05:38,160 --> 00:05:41,360 Speaker 1: I have a voice that I intend to use, and 94 00:05:41,480 --> 00:05:44,480 Speaker 1: then we're going to explore the different opportunities how to 95 00:05:44,600 --> 00:05:48,960 Speaker 1: use our voice constructively to advance the public's interest and 96 00:05:50,279 --> 00:05:54,360 Speaker 1: bring down a corrupt machine. And I think our message 97 00:05:54,360 --> 00:05:57,560 Speaker 1: didn't sell well in La County, but the fact that 98 00:05:57,600 --> 00:06:02,000 Speaker 1: I worked with Democrats and Republicans, endorsed Democrat and Republican 99 00:06:02,400 --> 00:06:06,280 Speaker 1: assemblymen and congressional people, they won the rest of the 100 00:06:06,279 --> 00:06:10,039 Speaker 1: countries that are not you know, the wackos here on 101 00:06:10,040 --> 00:06:14,599 Speaker 1: the West Coast. They actually appreciate normal people. What do 102 00:06:14,640 --> 00:06:16,839 Speaker 1: you think moderates from both sides. What do you think 103 00:06:16,839 --> 00:06:20,960 Speaker 1: it is about the majority of voters here? You know 104 00:06:21,080 --> 00:06:27,000 Speaker 1: they went against you, They're going against Rickso you and 105 00:06:27,120 --> 00:06:31,800 Speaker 1: Caruso were laying out plans to deal substantially with crime, 106 00:06:32,279 --> 00:06:36,040 Speaker 1: with homelessness, which were the top issues for the voters, 107 00:06:36,160 --> 00:06:40,200 Speaker 1: right there was nothing else to talk about. You, I mean, 108 00:06:41,240 --> 00:06:45,120 Speaker 1: very obviously cleaned up homeless camps, some of them huge, 109 00:06:45,240 --> 00:06:47,760 Speaker 1: some of them that were there for years, and you 110 00:06:47,880 --> 00:06:52,359 Speaker 1: just got it done. What's not to like about a 111 00:06:52,440 --> 00:06:54,800 Speaker 1: guy who says I'm going to clean up these homeless 112 00:06:54,839 --> 00:06:58,080 Speaker 1: camps and then a few weeks later executes the same 113 00:06:58,120 --> 00:07:01,080 Speaker 1: thing with Caruso. I have a thousand and percent confidence 114 00:07:01,200 --> 00:07:03,200 Speaker 1: that Carusoe would have made a huge dent in the 115 00:07:03,200 --> 00:07:06,599 Speaker 1: homelessness and he would have empowered the police to slow 116 00:07:06,600 --> 00:07:09,920 Speaker 1: down the crime. Ways. What is wrong with a majority 117 00:07:09,920 --> 00:07:16,160 Speaker 1: of voters who don't seem to want that? It's ideology 118 00:07:16,720 --> 00:07:21,920 Speaker 1: Frum's reality and for them the ideological. I've been a 119 00:07:21,920 --> 00:07:25,960 Speaker 1: lifelong Democrat, never voted for President Frum, yet I became 120 00:07:26,280 --> 00:07:29,200 Speaker 1: the Donald Trump of LA. You have someone who is 121 00:07:29,200 --> 00:07:33,880 Speaker 1: a lifelong Republican who supported him, supported Ice became the 122 00:07:34,000 --> 00:07:37,160 Speaker 1: darling of the far left. That is how nuddy it 123 00:07:37,320 --> 00:07:41,560 Speaker 1: is because it's all about ideology and perceptions, not reality. 124 00:07:41,680 --> 00:07:45,800 Speaker 1: That reality will come crashing home when that transient defecates 125 00:07:45,800 --> 00:07:49,520 Speaker 1: in their front law. Then they'll have that epiphany realize, oh, 126 00:07:49,720 --> 00:07:53,520 Speaker 1: we think we made a mistake. Yeah. Now, sometimes you 127 00:07:53,640 --> 00:07:57,200 Speaker 1: just have to let reality crash before people realize there's 128 00:07:57,240 --> 00:08:00,960 Speaker 1: a mistake made here. Well, listen, always got a home here. 129 00:08:01,320 --> 00:08:02,840 Speaker 1: Anytime you want to come on, you want to talk 130 00:08:02,880 --> 00:08:05,560 Speaker 1: about something, you got some cause you're pushing some activity 131 00:08:05,560 --> 00:08:09,400 Speaker 1: you're involved in, you just let us know. All right. Oh, 132 00:08:09,400 --> 00:08:11,440 Speaker 1: I much appreciate it. Thank you guys, because you did 133 00:08:11,440 --> 00:08:15,880 Speaker 1: a great job. I appreciate that, all right, thanks for 134 00:08:15,880 --> 00:08:19,520 Speaker 1: coming on. That is thank you La County Sheriff Alex 135 00:08:19,560 --> 00:08:22,280 Speaker 1: vigen Aueva, who conceded the race today to Robert Luna, 136 00:08:22,640 --> 00:08:27,280 Speaker 1: the retired former Long Beach Police chief and the puppet 137 00:08:27,280 --> 00:08:30,640 Speaker 1: of the La County Board of Supervisors. And this was 138 00:08:30,680 --> 00:08:34,240 Speaker 1: the only elected public official we could pretty much find 139 00:08:34,240 --> 00:08:36,840 Speaker 1: an all of La County who would stand up and 140 00:08:36,880 --> 00:08:39,840 Speaker 1: try to do something over the homeless problem, the crime problem. 141 00:08:40,440 --> 00:08:42,280 Speaker 1: You wanted too. For a lot of people bunted to 142 00:08:42,320 --> 00:08:45,960 Speaker 1: clean up the metro system, the all the insanity that 143 00:08:46,000 --> 00:08:50,760 Speaker 1: goes on in the metro buses and trains, people getting 144 00:08:51,000 --> 00:08:57,000 Speaker 1: set on fire, people unloading diarrhea all over metro train seats. 145 00:09:00,000 --> 00:09:03,120 Speaker 1: He made a very public stance against homelessness in La County, 146 00:09:03,160 --> 00:09:05,040 Speaker 1: and he went to places like Venice to try to 147 00:09:05,040 --> 00:09:08,160 Speaker 1: stamp it out, and of course he had some success 148 00:09:08,200 --> 00:09:10,360 Speaker 1: that it was copied, and then people like Bond and 149 00:09:10,400 --> 00:09:14,400 Speaker 1: try to take credit for what he did there. It's unbelievable. Well, 150 00:09:14,440 --> 00:09:18,040 Speaker 1: we wish him the best. Coming up next, You're shot 151 00:09:18,080 --> 00:09:20,360 Speaker 1: at some money another keyword, the final one of the 152 00:09:20,400 --> 00:09:24,440 Speaker 1: day here on KFI KFI Johnny Ken Show Alive everywhere 153 00:09:24,440 --> 00:09:27,640 Speaker 1: in the iHeartRadio app All right, another chapter from the 154 00:09:27,679 --> 00:09:32,240 Speaker 1: world of Woke Warriors People for a Perfect World. We 155 00:09:32,320 --> 00:09:36,920 Speaker 1: mentioned last week that the city of Berkeley, California, was 156 00:09:36,960 --> 00:09:40,160 Speaker 1: considering ending the right on red that you do every 157 00:09:40,240 --> 00:09:43,600 Speaker 1: day in your car. Yes, and have been doing for 158 00:09:43,679 --> 00:09:48,040 Speaker 1: quite some time. It was back in the seventies when 159 00:09:48,640 --> 00:09:52,359 Speaker 1: again it was the whole energy crisis and gasoline shortages 160 00:09:52,360 --> 00:09:55,160 Speaker 1: and all that, and the whole way they tinkered with 161 00:09:55,240 --> 00:09:58,760 Speaker 1: the clocks, and they also thought that it might save 162 00:09:58,880 --> 00:10:02,719 Speaker 1: energy if people could break and then take a right 163 00:10:02,760 --> 00:10:04,839 Speaker 1: on red when it's clear, because you waste a lot 164 00:10:04,920 --> 00:10:06,640 Speaker 1: and sit there at the light. You waste a lot 165 00:10:06,679 --> 00:10:09,480 Speaker 1: of gas waiting for a light to change. Would you 166 00:10:09,520 --> 00:10:11,040 Speaker 1: have an easy right turn you can make out of 167 00:10:11,080 --> 00:10:15,600 Speaker 1: the right lane. So eventually, in nineteen seventy five, they 168 00:10:15,640 --> 00:10:18,640 Speaker 1: required states to permit right turns on red lights in 169 00:10:18,720 --> 00:10:23,880 Speaker 1: order to receive federal assistance from mandated conservation programs. Anyway, 170 00:10:24,480 --> 00:10:27,080 Speaker 1: fast forward to today and there are a couple of places. 171 00:10:27,120 --> 00:10:29,640 Speaker 1: New York City quickly didn't allow it because New York 172 00:10:29,679 --> 00:10:33,040 Speaker 1: City has its own problem with his volumes of people 173 00:10:33,040 --> 00:10:36,080 Speaker 1: in cars on Washington d C. Apparently as a pilot 174 00:10:36,120 --> 00:10:39,880 Speaker 1: program that is banning the red light the right on red, 175 00:10:40,120 --> 00:10:43,120 Speaker 1: and now Berkeley wants to follow that and are all 176 00:10:43,200 --> 00:10:47,400 Speaker 1: star columnists with the Elsagundo Times. ROBINEP. Carrion has taken 177 00:10:47,480 --> 00:10:50,440 Speaker 1: up the local cause. Are you listening, Los Angeles? She 178 00:10:50,640 --> 00:10:54,240 Speaker 1: is like a human version of Berkeley, isn't She is 179 00:10:55,679 --> 00:10:59,000 Speaker 1: dumb pointless opinions like Berkeley has a lot of dumb 180 00:10:59,040 --> 00:11:04,360 Speaker 1: pointless laws and ordinances. I mean, jes just nonsense. Stuff. 181 00:11:05,000 --> 00:11:08,440 Speaker 1: Is San Francisco, San Jose and Arbora, Michigan have also 182 00:11:08,480 --> 00:11:14,440 Speaker 1: taken steps to perhaps outlaw the right on red And 183 00:11:14,520 --> 00:11:18,200 Speaker 1: of course this comes back to Vision zero, the European 184 00:11:18,280 --> 00:11:21,600 Speaker 1: idea that was adopted by Dope Mayor Eric Garcetti that 185 00:11:21,800 --> 00:11:24,600 Speaker 1: some day in the future, no one will die on 186 00:11:24,640 --> 00:11:29,160 Speaker 1: the roads, not in traffic crashes or pedestrians or bicyclests. 187 00:11:29,440 --> 00:11:32,199 Speaker 1: We are going to get down to zero. And instead 188 00:11:32,240 --> 00:11:34,000 Speaker 1: they got an increase. And you know why they got 189 00:11:34,000 --> 00:11:38,080 Speaker 1: an increase because there's so many homeless people stumbling around 190 00:11:38,080 --> 00:11:41,080 Speaker 1: in the dark, that's why. And they all the homeless 191 00:11:41,080 --> 00:11:44,319 Speaker 1: people being run over there. No, yes, yes, there's almelest 192 00:11:44,360 --> 00:11:46,280 Speaker 1: people getting run over there. Well, I know there is, 193 00:11:46,280 --> 00:11:49,760 Speaker 1: But they're responsible for the increases or yeah, that's what 194 00:11:49,880 --> 00:11:52,920 Speaker 1: I think. They're whacked out on drugs, whacked out on booze. 195 00:11:53,320 --> 00:11:55,240 Speaker 1: Most of the time you hit people in the dark. 196 00:11:55,320 --> 00:11:57,400 Speaker 1: Who's out in the dark stumbling around in the middle 197 00:11:57,400 --> 00:12:01,120 Speaker 1: of a road? Oh who does that? Trunks and homeless 198 00:12:01,120 --> 00:12:04,000 Speaker 1: people and drug addicts. I think of that every time 199 00:12:04,040 --> 00:12:05,680 Speaker 1: I'm on the freeway. And now they put up that 200 00:12:05,720 --> 00:12:09,040 Speaker 1: signboard that says watch out for pedestrians. I'm like, pedestrians, 201 00:12:09,040 --> 00:12:11,280 Speaker 1: why would right? Somebody may have had their car trouble 202 00:12:11,360 --> 00:12:12,720 Speaker 1: and pull over and get out of the car. But 203 00:12:13,000 --> 00:12:15,679 Speaker 1: people walking on the shoulder of the freeway out of 204 00:12:15,679 --> 00:12:18,240 Speaker 1: that could be crazy homeless people. And of course it 205 00:12:18,320 --> 00:12:22,160 Speaker 1: doesn't occur to Robin of Carrion's little, tiny baby brain 206 00:12:22,800 --> 00:12:25,840 Speaker 1: that maybe we have so many people wandering around in 207 00:12:25,880 --> 00:12:29,839 Speaker 1: the streets they're the ones getting knocked over by cars. No, 208 00:12:30,160 --> 00:12:34,240 Speaker 1: she thinks it's people making a ride on red She 209 00:12:34,400 --> 00:12:38,080 Speaker 1: just finds it so horrendously dangerous. I can't be the 210 00:12:38,120 --> 00:12:40,280 Speaker 1: only driver with a twinge of anxiety when the light 211 00:12:40,320 --> 00:12:42,760 Speaker 1: turns rent as I approach a right turn. There's a 212 00:12:42,760 --> 00:12:45,520 Speaker 1: lot of information to absorb. Is someone crossing the street 213 00:12:45,559 --> 00:12:47,760 Speaker 1: in front of me? Is a cyclist coming up behind 214 00:12:47,760 --> 00:12:49,600 Speaker 1: me on my right side in the bike lane? Are 215 00:12:49,600 --> 00:12:51,720 Speaker 1: the drivers who are stopped behind me getting and see 216 00:12:51,760 --> 00:12:54,080 Speaker 1: because I haven't turned yet? Why does this all feel 217 00:12:54,120 --> 00:12:57,839 Speaker 1: so intensely? Wrote this? What a neurotic? Yeah, that's really 218 00:12:57,960 --> 00:13:00,840 Speaker 1: the rob Would I make a right turn? Rip on yourself? 219 00:13:01,080 --> 00:13:05,880 Speaker 1: You're really you take a gummy? Yeah? Yeah. When I 220 00:13:05,920 --> 00:13:07,880 Speaker 1: see a sign prohibiting a right turn on red light, 221 00:13:08,000 --> 00:13:11,160 Speaker 1: I'm relieved one less stress point in my life behind 222 00:13:11,240 --> 00:13:15,880 Speaker 1: the wheel. Wow, you need Debra's edibles. Yeah, I mean, 223 00:13:16,000 --> 00:13:19,360 Speaker 1: good lord, that's some sage in your car. What a 224 00:13:19,440 --> 00:13:22,319 Speaker 1: whack on neurotic. I don't have any thoughts when I'm 225 00:13:22,320 --> 00:13:25,560 Speaker 1: making a ride on red. None. I just stop, look 226 00:13:25,559 --> 00:13:27,640 Speaker 1: and make the ride on red. There's no need to 227 00:13:27,679 --> 00:13:30,520 Speaker 1: have any thoughts, no anxiety, nothing to freak out in 228 00:13:30,600 --> 00:13:34,520 Speaker 1: panic or people behind me getting antsy. Oh so well, 229 00:13:35,240 --> 00:13:37,840 Speaker 1: you know, she's got this stat on pedestrian deaths on 230 00:13:37,880 --> 00:13:39,959 Speaker 1: the rise, and she's trying to make some linkage here. 231 00:13:40,040 --> 00:13:42,640 Speaker 1: That part of it is right, turn on red killing pedestrians. 232 00:13:42,679 --> 00:13:45,520 Speaker 1: She's made that up. She's made that up. Right turn 233 00:13:45,600 --> 00:13:53,280 Speaker 1: on red killing pedestrians. I where who got run over? 234 00:13:53,320 --> 00:13:56,600 Speaker 1: Give me the name, show me the bodies. She claims it. 235 00:13:56,640 --> 00:13:59,680 Speaker 1: Over the last decade, pedestrian deaths have risen by fifty 236 00:13:59,720 --> 00:14:03,120 Speaker 1: four percent throughout the country. Yeah, what could be causing this? 237 00:14:05,200 --> 00:14:07,920 Speaker 1: And of course she eventually centers in on the possibility 238 00:14:07,960 --> 00:14:10,959 Speaker 1: that people turning right on redly it's not it's the 239 00:14:11,000 --> 00:14:14,160 Speaker 1: fault of the people who are wandering in the roadways. 240 00:14:14,760 --> 00:14:18,480 Speaker 1: It's not the drivers, it's the pedestrians. It's really not 241 00:14:18,679 --> 00:14:22,560 Speaker 1: hard to avoid getting hit by a car. I mean, 242 00:14:22,960 --> 00:14:25,640 Speaker 1: most people never get hit by a car. Most people 243 00:14:25,680 --> 00:14:29,360 Speaker 1: don't know anyone who's gotten hit by a car. Mostly 244 00:14:29,520 --> 00:14:33,080 Speaker 1: it is people late at night, drunk and drugged. That's 245 00:14:33,080 --> 00:14:37,280 Speaker 1: what it is. Always got to blame the drivers, don't 246 00:14:37,320 --> 00:14:40,760 Speaker 1: to blame the pedestrians. If you can't see a two 247 00:14:40,800 --> 00:14:42,920 Speaker 1: ton vehicle coming at you, I don't know what to 248 00:14:42,920 --> 00:14:47,880 Speaker 1: tell you. Just look look. She interviewed a writer named 249 00:14:47,960 --> 00:14:51,520 Speaker 1: Jesse Singer. The book is There arto Accidents, The deadly 250 00:14:51,600 --> 00:14:54,040 Speaker 1: rise of injury and disaster? Who profits and who pays 251 00:14:54,040 --> 00:15:00,000 Speaker 1: the price? Basically that's in the title. This no such exactans. 252 00:15:00,120 --> 00:15:03,000 Speaker 1: It's no coincidence that in New York City, the most 253 00:15:03,080 --> 00:15:05,920 Speaker 1: pedestrian dense city in the US, right on red has 254 00:15:05,960 --> 00:15:09,400 Speaker 1: long and largely been disallowed. But there are common sense 255 00:15:09,480 --> 00:15:12,240 Speaker 1: reasons for that, because that would be a bit out 256 00:15:12,240 --> 00:15:14,160 Speaker 1: of control, particularly when you consider how many people are 257 00:15:14,160 --> 00:15:17,240 Speaker 1: crossing the average street in the city of New York 258 00:15:17,600 --> 00:15:19,920 Speaker 1: when the lights green. For them to let the other 259 00:15:19,960 --> 00:15:23,360 Speaker 1: cars do a right on red would be just wouldn't 260 00:15:23,400 --> 00:15:27,240 Speaker 1: make any sense, not even practical. No, it's different, he says, 261 00:15:27,520 --> 00:15:29,760 Speaker 1: we need to the sanctity of the crosswalk in the 262 00:15:29,760 --> 00:15:33,760 Speaker 1: life of pedestrians and the hands of a fallible driver. Again, 263 00:15:33,960 --> 00:15:37,640 Speaker 1: this is the argument that these people can't be trusted, 264 00:15:37,720 --> 00:15:40,920 Speaker 1: people constantly making mistakes. Yeah, there's gonna be some crazy 265 00:15:40,920 --> 00:15:43,400 Speaker 1: guys that drive right through the right on red and stop. 266 00:15:43,440 --> 00:15:46,480 Speaker 1: You can't people. But yeah, all these nanny state people, 267 00:15:46,600 --> 00:15:49,920 Speaker 1: they're always hysterical. Any tenny little problem is blown up 268 00:15:49,960 --> 00:15:55,840 Speaker 1: into armageddon. Every little thing. Ah, you know, we deal 269 00:15:55,880 --> 00:15:57,960 Speaker 1: with the word the real world of crime and murder 270 00:15:58,120 --> 00:16:02,000 Speaker 1: and homeless people dying on the streets. They don't step 271 00:16:02,080 --> 00:16:03,840 Speaker 1: up for a solution about that. But that takes after 272 00:16:03,880 --> 00:16:07,320 Speaker 1: people for turning right on red. That's all downplayed. Robert 273 00:16:07,320 --> 00:16:10,760 Speaker 1: of carrying excessively downplays is at downplays the dangers of 274 00:16:10,800 --> 00:16:13,960 Speaker 1: criminals and homeless people, and she's out of her mind 275 00:16:14,160 --> 00:16:16,520 Speaker 1: over making a ride on red. They're you know what, 276 00:16:16,640 --> 00:16:19,840 Speaker 1: they're crazy people. They're just absolutely crazy people. You know 277 00:16:19,880 --> 00:16:26,480 Speaker 1: what I've been doing lately? Yeah, what left on reds left? Serious? Yes? 278 00:16:26,520 --> 00:16:30,320 Speaker 1: I am serious? Is this like at two in the morning? No, no, no, 279 00:16:30,360 --> 00:16:32,760 Speaker 1: if if you have if you have a break on 280 00:16:33,160 --> 00:16:35,240 Speaker 1: some boulevards, Like if you have a boulevard with a 281 00:16:35,320 --> 00:16:39,720 Speaker 1: median and and there's a cross street, but you have 282 00:16:39,840 --> 00:16:43,400 Speaker 1: no uncoming traffic. You know, often in the evening I 283 00:16:43,440 --> 00:16:47,240 Speaker 1: do this. There's one boulevard near me that has a 284 00:16:47,280 --> 00:16:50,560 Speaker 1: lot of left hand turns and unnecessary lights, and there's 285 00:16:50,560 --> 00:16:52,800 Speaker 1: no traffic going by. I just look around. If there's 286 00:16:52,800 --> 00:16:55,120 Speaker 1: no cop I make a left on red. Look at that. 287 00:16:55,680 --> 00:16:57,800 Speaker 1: You're gonna start a new trend. I've just added that 288 00:16:57,840 --> 00:17:02,120 Speaker 1: to my repertoire. You know, dry market. He's in the 289 00:17:02,160 --> 00:17:04,280 Speaker 1: car pool lane by himself, and I'm doing left on ren. 290 00:17:04,440 --> 00:17:07,959 Speaker 1: You are a rule breaker, aren't I? Yes, yeah, I'm 291 00:17:08,000 --> 00:17:12,280 Speaker 1: living on the edge. Wow, it's taking your chances. Pretty 292 00:17:12,359 --> 00:17:14,960 Speaker 1: car roulette.

Yeah you're a fool. Yeah, but I'll be 298 00:17:31,160 --> 00:17:33,840 Speaker 1: the fool that ends up getting pulled over and getting 299 00:17:33,840 --> 00:17:36,200 Speaker 1: a ticket.

John's native homeland countries. 335 00:20:08,840 --> 00:20:11,640 Speaker 1: I'm not I got I got, I got my gun. 336 00:20:11,680 --> 00:20:13,720 Speaker 1: I'm ready to go. You're gonna go fight for them. 337 00:20:13,720 --> 00:20:17,919 Speaker 1: I'm gonna enlist. Yeah, the Russia did not kill himself. 338 00:20:19,440 --> 00:20:26,040 Speaker 1: He'll trip over the gloting myself. Uh. Today was the 339 00:20:26,160 --> 00:20:33,800 Speaker 1: cross examination of Jennifer Newsom, a documentary filmmaker and wife 340 00:20:34,480 --> 00:20:38,919 Speaker 1: of Gavin Newsom. Now yesterday, she was only questioned by 341 00:20:38,960 --> 00:20:42,040 Speaker 1: the prosecution. She is Jane Doe number four in the 342 00:20:42,119 --> 00:20:48,320 Speaker 1: trial against Harvey Weinstein, and she graphically relayed a story 343 00:20:48,359 --> 00:20:51,440 Speaker 1: of the sex assault she suffered back in two thousand 344 00:20:51,480 --> 00:20:55,359 Speaker 1: and five from Harvey Weinstein. As we said earlier in 345 00:20:55,400 --> 00:20:58,800 Speaker 1: the show, she gave a unique description of his genitalia 346 00:20:59,040 --> 00:21:05,240 Speaker 1: as being fish like, which puzzled us. But I've seen 347 00:21:05,240 --> 00:21:07,560 Speaker 1: many fish in tanks. I never thought of a penis 348 00:21:07,640 --> 00:21:10,000 Speaker 1: or genitalia. But what is an ugly fish? I wonder 349 00:21:10,640 --> 00:21:13,159 Speaker 1: you got You know, there's some beautiful fish. Catfish are 350 00:21:13,160 --> 00:21:16,359 Speaker 1: pretty ugly. But you think it looks like a catfish? No, no, no, 351 00:21:16,400 --> 00:21:18,199 Speaker 1: I didn't say that. I just you're asking for an 352 00:21:18,280 --> 00:21:20,640 Speaker 1: ugly fish and lots of ugly fish. You haven't seen it? Then, 353 00:21:22,200 --> 00:21:25,679 Speaker 1: what Weinstein? Yeah, you said catfish. I thought maybe you 354 00:21:25,720 --> 00:21:29,720 Speaker 1: saw something. No, you asked what's an ugly fish? That's 355 00:21:29,720 --> 00:21:32,719 Speaker 1: a separate question. All right, Here's here's a list. Do 356 00:21:32,800 --> 00:21:37,239 Speaker 1: not distort my words, attorney. Um, here's some of the 357 00:21:37,560 --> 00:21:45,280 Speaker 1: eleven of the ugliest fish species. The hagfish, the hagfish, 358 00:21:45,320 --> 00:21:49,920 Speaker 1: the red lipped batfish, the monkfish. Oh yeah, monkfish are ugly. 359 00:21:49,960 --> 00:21:52,800 Speaker 1: I've seen them. Well, I don't think she was asked 360 00:21:52,840 --> 00:21:55,760 Speaker 1: specifically which fish? Oh no, but I wonder if you 361 00:21:55,840 --> 00:21:59,040 Speaker 1: had to pick a fish species for Weinstein's penis, which 362 00:21:59,040 --> 00:22:04,040 Speaker 1: one would it be. Now the defense attorney is Mark Worksman, 363 00:22:04,280 --> 00:22:06,120 Speaker 1: and it looks like what he focused in on this 364 00:22:06,160 --> 00:22:10,119 Speaker 1: afternoon was the following she said she was sexually assaulted 365 00:22:10,160 --> 00:22:12,840 Speaker 1: in two thousand and five, she doesn't go to the 366 00:22:12,840 --> 00:22:16,520 Speaker 1: police until twenty twenty. Okay, that's a couple of years 367 00:22:16,520 --> 00:22:19,880 Speaker 1: after Weinstein's already been exposed under the me too stuff. 368 00:22:20,880 --> 00:22:24,879 Speaker 1: So that's the first small little bell. But what Worksman 369 00:22:25,720 --> 00:22:28,919 Speaker 1: focused in on this afternoon was the fact that he 370 00:22:29,000 --> 00:22:32,160 Speaker 1: claims in her account in twenty twenty to police, and 371 00:22:32,200 --> 00:22:34,840 Speaker 1: what she is now telling on the stand, she has 372 00:22:34,880 --> 00:22:41,080 Speaker 1: expanded the story. He also said, because she said she 373 00:22:41,119 --> 00:22:45,199 Speaker 1: said frequent nightmares since the encounter, he asked her, have 374 00:22:45,320 --> 00:22:47,840 Speaker 1: you had a difficult time actually discerning what happened in 375 00:22:47,880 --> 00:22:50,239 Speaker 1: a nightmare and what actually happened in a bedroom at 376 00:22:50,240 --> 00:22:54,879 Speaker 1: the Peninsula Hotel. That's an old tactic. That is nasty, 377 00:22:55,520 --> 00:22:59,920 Speaker 1: y yep. I don't think most jurors by that anyway, 378 00:23:00,040 --> 00:23:02,080 Speaker 1: because you know, that's just trying to say, well, you 379 00:23:02,080 --> 00:23:05,520 Speaker 1: can make up anything. This is not gonna work. So 380 00:23:05,600 --> 00:23:07,439 Speaker 1: she said, well, as we got closer to this, and 381 00:23:07,480 --> 00:23:10,439 Speaker 1: it's gotten more real. She said, when she told the 382 00:23:10,440 --> 00:23:13,560 Speaker 1: police the story in twenty twenty, she did not expect 383 00:23:13,600 --> 00:23:15,600 Speaker 1: she would be in a criminal trial. That's what she 384 00:23:15,640 --> 00:23:18,119 Speaker 1: said on the stand, And as we got closer to this, 385 00:23:18,119 --> 00:23:21,320 Speaker 1: it's gotten more real. Might need to clarify and be 386 00:23:21,400 --> 00:23:24,959 Speaker 1: more detailed, occurred to me, because honestly, she's right. If 387 00:23:24,960 --> 00:23:28,560 Speaker 1: you're going to be questioned on the stand and cross examined, 388 00:23:29,200 --> 00:23:31,480 Speaker 1: you're going to have to really pull back hard and 389 00:23:31,520 --> 00:23:33,840 Speaker 1: try to remember everything to happen, because they're gonna want 390 00:23:33,840 --> 00:23:36,159 Speaker 1: to know that. Whereas she's claiming when she went to 391 00:23:36,160 --> 00:23:37,960 Speaker 1: the police in twenty twenty, it was like, well, you know, 392 00:23:38,080 --> 00:23:39,639 Speaker 1: he's already been accused by a lot of women, but 393 00:23:39,680 --> 00:23:41,000 Speaker 1: I want to tell you that this happened to me. 394 00:23:41,760 --> 00:23:44,800 Speaker 1: But I think her story was more limited, right than 395 00:23:44,840 --> 00:23:46,600 Speaker 1: the one sheef. She said, I had everything in a 396 00:23:46,640 --> 00:23:48,639 Speaker 1: box and I've been slowly sharing a little bit at 397 00:23:48,640 --> 00:23:52,880 Speaker 1: a time because this is painful. And you know, as 398 00:23:52,920 --> 00:23:57,240 Speaker 1: regards gathered newsom her story is that she didn't have 399 00:23:57,240 --> 00:24:00,720 Speaker 1: to tell him specifically, she said something to him like 400 00:24:01,000 --> 00:24:05,919 Speaker 1: Weinstein's sketchy, and then over time he figured out. I 401 00:24:05,920 --> 00:24:09,920 Speaker 1: guess after the twenty seventeen meeto stuff, he certainly probably 402 00:24:09,920 --> 00:24:13,360 Speaker 1: figured out that she was also some kind of victim. Yeah, 403 00:24:13,400 --> 00:24:17,400 Speaker 1: Gavin's pretty sharp now. Worksman says that she just had 404 00:24:17,440 --> 00:24:21,760 Speaker 1: consensual sex with Weinstein to advance her career, and he 405 00:24:21,840 --> 00:24:25,800 Speaker 1: showed her many friendly emails she sent to Weinstein in 406 00:24:25,840 --> 00:24:29,119 Speaker 1: the years that followed that the Worksman said, would not 407 00:24:29,160 --> 00:24:32,439 Speaker 1: have been sent by someone who had been raped. She 408 00:24:32,560 --> 00:24:35,080 Speaker 1: said that she set aside the assault in her mind, 409 00:24:36,280 --> 00:24:39,879 Speaker 1: and the communications were unfortunate necessity as a young actor 410 00:24:39,960 --> 00:24:43,080 Speaker 1: like she was at the time, so she put it 411 00:24:43,080 --> 00:24:45,760 Speaker 1: in a box, so to speak. Yeah, I was trying 412 00:24:45,760 --> 00:24:49,679 Speaker 1: to survive, she said. You know, I'm certain that this 413 00:24:49,720 --> 00:24:52,399 Speaker 1: assault happened to her right the way she says, But 414 00:24:54,520 --> 00:24:59,240 Speaker 1: women have got to stop contacting or being in contact 415 00:24:59,640 --> 00:25:03,159 Speaker 1: with right afterwards because a lot of people don't get that. 416 00:25:03,960 --> 00:25:07,399 Speaker 1: Everyone says to themselves, would I do that? It's like, no, 417 00:25:07,480 --> 00:25:10,960 Speaker 1: I wouldn't do that. The average person says, I wouldn't 418 00:25:11,000 --> 00:25:14,040 Speaker 1: do that, And you got to consider when you're thinking 419 00:25:14,040 --> 00:25:16,720 Speaker 1: about a jury, and they keep yeah. I mean you, 420 00:25:16,840 --> 00:25:18,280 Speaker 1: first of all, you got you ought to get get 421 00:25:18,280 --> 00:25:23,080 Speaker 1: out your story right away rights, but you don't. You 422 00:25:23,119 --> 00:25:26,280 Speaker 1: don't leave a trail if you're eventually gonna go to 423 00:25:26,359 --> 00:25:29,439 Speaker 1: court about it, you leave a trail behind these defense 424 00:25:29,480 --> 00:25:34,600 Speaker 1: attorneys brutalized women. I mean, worksman doesn't care if if 425 00:25:35,040 --> 00:25:40,760 Speaker 1: Jennifer Knewsome breaks down in tears and starts screaming. Yeah. So, 426 00:25:40,960 --> 00:25:43,360 Speaker 1: I mean you can't give them any ammunition. And yeah, 427 00:25:43,359 --> 00:25:46,080 Speaker 1: it is hard to understand. And I know there's experts 428 00:25:46,080 --> 00:25:49,879 Speaker 1: that when these stories happen, they always have like some quick, 429 00:25:50,240 --> 00:25:53,760 Speaker 1: easy explanation analysis and if you don't buy it, then 430 00:25:54,200 --> 00:25:57,760 Speaker 1: you're a mean, terrible person. But I think most people go, huh, 431 00:25:57,920 --> 00:26:00,560 Speaker 1: you kept writing to him, You kept talking to him. 432 00:26:00,760 --> 00:26:05,800 Speaker 1: One other interesting note, the defense tried to bring up 433 00:26:06,720 --> 00:26:09,560 Speaker 1: the visit by the Newsoms to the French Laundry and 434 00:26:09,640 --> 00:26:13,320 Speaker 1: NAPA Valley during the COVID nineteen pandemic, but the judge 435 00:26:13,359 --> 00:26:16,480 Speaker 1: denied it. She just didn't see the relevance. I don't 436 00:26:16,520 --> 00:26:20,280 Speaker 1: know what they were fishing around for the jury. A 437 00:26:20,280 --> 00:26:23,320 Speaker 1: bad light remind them right, well, the French laundry is 438 00:26:23,320 --> 00:26:28,680 Speaker 1: what got him up for a recall. Right, So that 439 00:26:28,720 --> 00:26:32,399 Speaker 1: one really cut through. And they also honed in on 440 00:26:32,560 --> 00:26:37,000 Speaker 1: donations that Weinstein made to the Newsome campaigns. Most of 441 00:26:37,040 --> 00:26:40,399 Speaker 1: the money has been returned, but again the same point, 442 00:26:40,880 --> 00:26:43,919 Speaker 1: he stayed in contact with them. You got money for 443 00:26:44,080 --> 00:26:47,320 Speaker 1: your husbian's campaigns. I mean, I mean, what's that about. 444 00:26:47,400 --> 00:26:52,040 Speaker 1: A normal person will just separate the two issues and say, yes, 445 00:26:52,320 --> 00:26:56,439 Speaker 1: she got sexually attacked, and yes, that's really weird that 446 00:26:56,520 --> 00:26:58,760 Speaker 1: she stayed in contact with him. I don't think one 447 00:26:58,840 --> 00:27:01,960 Speaker 1: negates the other, but it just it just opens you 448 00:27:02,000 --> 00:27:04,639 Speaker 1: to just vicious attacks from the lawyer and you know, 449 00:27:04,720 --> 00:27:06,199 Speaker 1: maybe who knows that. I mean, there could be a 450 00:27:06,280 --> 00:27:09,439 Speaker 1: juror too, who says, well, I don't believe it. Right, 451 00:27:09,480 --> 00:27:11,720 Speaker 1: you get a juror hates Newsom and then you know, 452 00:27:11,800 --> 00:27:17,400 Speaker 1: so it's just I mean, it's hard for me to understand. 453 00:27:17,880 --> 00:27:19,840 Speaker 1: All right, we got more coming. I'm a stupid guy, 454 00:27:19,840 --> 00:27:22,240 Speaker 1: so what do I know? This is? Bro? You good? 455 00:27:22,240 --> 00:27:27,119 Speaker 1: Save that one? John and Ken no comment? Oh wow, 456 00:27:27,760 --> 00:27:32,480 Speaker 1: it's cold. I'll second the nomination. You're a wonderful guy, John, 457 00:27:32,560 --> 00:27:35,119 Speaker 1: You're not stupid. You're the most intelligent guy I know. 458 00:27:35,600 --> 00:27:39,040 Speaker 1: All right, All rightop the tongue, please go on, Well, 459 00:27:39,200 --> 00:27:43,199 Speaker 1: is there nothing more interesting and entertaining than to follow 460 00:27:43,280 --> 00:27:47,639 Speaker 1: the news concerning this crypto exchange company, the demise of 461 00:27:47,800 --> 00:27:53,439 Speaker 1: ft X, and this thirty year old wonder boy, Sam Bankman. Freed, 462 00:27:54,040 --> 00:27:57,560 Speaker 1: who was the CEO of the company thirty two billion 463 00:27:57,560 --> 00:28:00,840 Speaker 1: dollars company which has plunged into bank is now being 464 00:28:00,880 --> 00:28:07,199 Speaker 1: investigated by the SEC and the Justice Department. And the 465 00:28:07,240 --> 00:28:08,760 Speaker 1: only thing he says in an interview with The New 466 00:28:08,840 --> 00:28:11,320 Speaker 1: York Times is I just may have moved too fast 467 00:28:11,880 --> 00:28:14,120 Speaker 1: on a lot of things. We probably should have been 468 00:28:14,160 --> 00:28:18,880 Speaker 1: more cautious. But what he's accused of doing here is funneling. 469 00:28:19,119 --> 00:28:22,679 Speaker 1: He's a scam artist. The money into a company, among others, 470 00:28:22,720 --> 00:28:25,920 Speaker 1: called Alameda Research, which apparently was headed by his girlfriend, 471 00:28:26,400 --> 00:28:30,440 Speaker 1: and they ran into big financial problems. He Alomedia accumulated 472 00:28:30,480 --> 00:28:34,040 Speaker 1: a large margin position on FTX, essentially meaning and it 473 00:28:34,119 --> 00:28:38,520 Speaker 1: borrowed funds from the exchange. I was just reading an article. 474 00:28:38,640 --> 00:28:40,840 Speaker 1: And here's how you know it was intentional and he's 475 00:28:40,840 --> 00:28:44,920 Speaker 1: a crook. He put into the computer code they call 476 00:28:45,000 --> 00:28:50,000 Speaker 1: it a backdoor, so he could access hundreds of millions 477 00:28:50,000 --> 00:28:55,080 Speaker 1: of dollars and then funnel it to Alameda without its 478 00:28:55,160 --> 00:29:01,440 Speaker 1: showing up in a database for anyone to notice. Because 479 00:29:01,480 --> 00:29:04,360 Speaker 1: when you especially with crypto, right, they're supposed to be 480 00:29:05,080 --> 00:29:09,000 Speaker 1: it's supposed to be transparent. How the money is flowing 481 00:29:09,080 --> 00:29:12,360 Speaker 1: in and out. Well, he had his own like secret 482 00:29:12,480 --> 00:29:15,880 Speaker 1: channel he had created. You have to willfully put the 483 00:29:15,920 --> 00:29:20,080 Speaker 1: code into the system and then take steps to execute 484 00:29:20,080 --> 00:29:23,440 Speaker 1: the code to withdraw the money. And it's done in 485 00:29:23,440 --> 00:29:27,000 Speaker 1: a way so that nobody can tell. Oh, so he's 486 00:29:27,040 --> 00:29:30,280 Speaker 1: guilty that You don't need to know anything else. You 487 00:29:30,320 --> 00:29:32,920 Speaker 1: know the guy. The guy is a genius, or he 488 00:29:33,000 --> 00:29:37,280 Speaker 1: hired other geniuses. And I'm sure all these crypto places 489 00:29:37,360 --> 00:29:43,239 Speaker 1: have something like that. Mister bankman. Freed said he's no 490 00:29:43,320 --> 00:29:46,520 Speaker 1: longer in a romantic relationship with the woman whose company 491 00:29:46,560 --> 00:29:51,800 Speaker 1: he funneled too, but he declined to comment further. The polycuele, 492 00:29:52,080 --> 00:29:55,920 Speaker 1: that's what I want to hear more about. Oh, he's 493 00:29:56,000 --> 00:30:00,240 Speaker 1: living with ten other people in this thirty million dollar 494 00:30:00,440 --> 00:30:04,200 Speaker 1: penthouse and they're all having sex with one another. Guy 495 00:30:04,280 --> 00:30:06,680 Speaker 1: to girl, gut a guy, girl, the girl, all of it, all, 496 00:30:06,720 --> 00:30:09,200 Speaker 1: ten of them.
