Now, we have more on Newsom because 20 00:01:04,200 --> 00:01:09,120 Speaker 1: he really made a rear end of himself out in 21 00:01:09,240 --> 00:01:12,160 Speaker 1: Davos in Switzerland, and we're going to play you some clips. 22 00:01:12,200 --> 00:01:17,640 Speaker 1: Scott Bessent the Treasury Secretary went after Newsom again before 23 00:01:17,680 --> 00:01:21,520 Speaker 1: we play the Scott Besson clips, though this was in California. 24 00:01:21,560 --> 00:01:27,880 Speaker 1: Globe dot Com Katie Grimes. She discovered that Gavin Newsom 25 00:01:28,160 --> 00:01:33,280 Speaker 1: has budgeted, sit down, thirty three thousand dollars of your 26 00:01:33,400 --> 00:01:40,959 Speaker 1: tax money for a self portrait. Thirty three thousand dollars 27 00:01:41,560 --> 00:01:45,280 Speaker 1: your tax money on the budget for a self portrait. 28 00:01:45,680 --> 00:01:46,880 Speaker 2: She provided the doctor. 29 00:01:49,040 --> 00:01:53,440 Speaker 1: She provided the document. It is page two twenty seven 30 00:01:53,640 --> 00:01:58,520 Speaker 1: of the Governor's Budget Summary, Item zero seven to two 31 00:01:58,720 --> 00:02:04,040 Speaker 1: oh no other details, thirty three thousand a Gavin Newsom's 32 00:02:04,040 --> 00:02:08,440 Speaker 1: self portrait. She also points out that there is no 33 00:02:08,560 --> 00:02:10,480 Speaker 1: money listed for wildfires. 34 00:02:12,240 --> 00:02:13,680 Speaker 2: No money. 35 00:02:14,400 --> 00:02:17,240 Speaker 1: I think everybody's onto Newsom, not only left wing writers, 36 00:02:18,040 --> 00:02:20,680 Speaker 1: but a lot of the European leaders. They got a 37 00:02:20,720 --> 00:02:23,079 Speaker 1: lecture from Newsom if you remember earlier this week, where 38 00:02:23,080 --> 00:02:27,200 Speaker 1: he was scolding them that they are spineless. He brought 39 00:02:27,520 --> 00:02:31,360 Speaker 1: knee pads for them, since that's apparently how they're going 40 00:02:31,400 --> 00:02:34,320 Speaker 1: to worship Trump and how they're going to pleasure Trump. 41 00:02:34,919 --> 00:02:39,320 Speaker 1: And the Europeans responded by negotiating with Trump to come 42 00:02:39,400 --> 00:02:42,560 Speaker 1: up with a deal on Greenland to get our military 43 00:02:42,600 --> 00:02:45,959 Speaker 1: bases expanded there. So we could end up protecting the 44 00:02:46,000 --> 00:02:49,120 Speaker 1: rest of the Northern Hemisphere when the Russians and the 45 00:02:49,200 --> 00:02:56,800 Speaker 1: Chinese decide to launch missiles. But Scott Bessant, he's ripped 46 00:02:56,800 --> 00:03:00,000 Speaker 1: off some good ones on Newsom. I want to play 47 00:03:00,120 --> 00:03:02,240 Speaker 1: you one from earlier this week and then play you 48 00:03:02,280 --> 00:03:04,440 Speaker 1: a new one because we're gonna we're gonna keep a 49 00:03:04,600 --> 00:03:09,480 Speaker 1: library of these. Scott Beston is the Treasury Secretary, very 50 00:03:09,680 --> 00:03:13,919 Speaker 1: very smart guy. I'd say he's double the IQ of Newsom. Well, 51 00:03:13,960 --> 00:03:19,480 Speaker 1: I mean, I mean Newsom's got What I did is 52 00:03:19,480 --> 00:03:21,680 Speaker 1: I took his admitted SAT score and I put it 53 00:03:21,720 --> 00:03:26,960 Speaker 1: into chet GPT and said, well, what what's probably the 54 00:03:27,000 --> 00:03:30,880 Speaker 1: IQ score that Newsom would have? 55 00:03:31,600 --> 00:03:31,880 Speaker 2: Uh? 56 00:03:31,919 --> 00:03:35,720 Speaker 1: If his he says his SAT was nine sixty and 57 00:03:36,160 --> 00:03:40,480 Speaker 1: that's that's below average, and uh chet GPT said, well, 58 00:03:41,120 --> 00:03:43,040 Speaker 1: he could have an IQ as low as ninety three, 59 00:03:43,880 --> 00:03:48,840 Speaker 1: that's right. And one hundred or one hundred is supposed 60 00:03:48,880 --> 00:03:53,840 Speaker 1: to be the midpoint of average IQ. The actual average 61 00:03:54,400 --> 00:03:56,680 Speaker 1: is about ninety seven ninety eight. 62 00:03:57,520 --> 00:04:00,600 Speaker 2: His is ninety three, So it's. 63 00:04:02,000 --> 00:04:05,880 Speaker 1: It's low, it's not very and you could tell, I mean, 64 00:04:05,920 --> 00:04:09,360 Speaker 1: it's kind of stupid to go to the World Economic Forum, 65 00:04:09,400 --> 00:04:14,000 Speaker 1: which is for the leaders of nations and the ceo 66 00:04:14,080 --> 00:04:18,000 Speaker 1: is of major corporations. When you've left your state in 67 00:04:18,040 --> 00:04:22,080 Speaker 1: a disaster area and then you start ragging on the 68 00:04:22,120 --> 00:04:25,120 Speaker 1: European leaders and Trump, these guys are running the world, 69 00:04:25,160 --> 00:04:28,520 Speaker 1: whether you like it or not. Newsom's not running the world. 70 00:04:28,839 --> 00:04:32,960 Speaker 1: He's running California into the ground. So here's how bessnt 71 00:04:33,120 --> 00:04:34,719 Speaker 1: laid out Newsom on Wednesday. 72 00:04:34,960 --> 00:04:35,599 Speaker 3: I think it's. 73 00:04:35,680 --> 00:04:36,679 Speaker 2: Very, very. 74 00:04:39,120 --> 00:04:42,680 Speaker 4: Ironic that you know Governor Newsom, who strikes me as 75 00:04:42,720 --> 00:04:47,240 Speaker 4: Patrick Bateman meets Sparkle beach Ken, maybe the only Californian 76 00:04:47,520 --> 00:04:53,240 Speaker 4: who knows less about economics than Kamala Harris. He's here 77 00:04:53,600 --> 00:04:57,839 Speaker 4: this week with his billionaire sugar daddy Alex Soros and 78 00:04:58,480 --> 00:05:02,360 Speaker 4: the Davos is a perfect for a man who, when 79 00:05:02,360 --> 00:05:05,080 Speaker 4: everyone else was on lockdown, when he was having people 80 00:05:05,200 --> 00:05:08,040 Speaker 4: arrested for going to church, he was having on thousand 81 00:05:08,080 --> 00:05:11,320 Speaker 4: dollars a night meals at the French laundry. And I'm 82 00:05:11,320 --> 00:05:15,080 Speaker 4: sure the California people won't forget that. And I can 83 00:05:15,120 --> 00:05:18,680 Speaker 4: tell my message to Governor Newsom is the Trump administration 84 00:05:18,960 --> 00:05:22,480 Speaker 4: is coming to California. We're going to crack down on waste, 85 00:05:22,680 --> 00:05:26,080 Speaker 4: fraud and abuse. And I was told he was asked 86 00:05:26,120 --> 00:05:30,400 Speaker 4: to give a speech on his signature policies. But he's 87 00:05:30,440 --> 00:05:35,040 Speaker 4: not speaking because what of his economic policies brought outward 88 00:05:35,160 --> 00:05:40,279 Speaker 4: migration from California, a gigantic budget deficit, the largest homeless 89 00:05:40,320 --> 00:05:44,800 Speaker 4: population in America, and the poor folks in the Palisades 90 00:05:45,040 --> 00:05:45,880 Speaker 4: who had their. 91 00:05:45,680 --> 00:05:50,200 Speaker 5: Homes burned down. He is here hobnobbing with the global 92 00:05:50,240 --> 00:05:55,279 Speaker 5: elite while his California citizens are still homeless. 93 00:05:55,800 --> 00:05:56,560 Speaker 2: Shame on him. 94 00:05:57,000 --> 00:06:01,680 Speaker 5: He is too smug, too self absorbed, and too economically 95 00:06:01,800 --> 00:06:03,480 Speaker 5: illiterate to know anything. 96 00:06:05,760 --> 00:06:09,480 Speaker 1: Other than that he's a decent guy. Scott Besson mentioned 97 00:06:09,520 --> 00:06:12,160 Speaker 1: Alex Soros there. You may not know who he is. 98 00:06:12,680 --> 00:06:15,520 Speaker 1: George Soros you probably heard of. George Soros is this 99 00:06:16,400 --> 00:06:22,240 Speaker 1: Hungarian billionaire who is in his nineties, and he financed 100 00:06:22,520 --> 00:06:28,680 Speaker 1: the destructive campaigns for district attorneys in many cities, all 101 00:06:28,680 --> 00:06:34,080 Speaker 1: the cities with really bad left wing They refused to 102 00:06:35,440 --> 00:06:38,119 Speaker 1: they refused to prosecute criminals that that type. 103 00:06:39,520 --> 00:06:40,080 Speaker 2: He was behind. 104 00:06:40,120 --> 00:06:45,440 Speaker 1: Gascon don'tated a lot of money, George Gascon. And of 105 00:06:45,480 --> 00:06:49,520 Speaker 1: course all the cities that Soros got his his candidate 106 00:06:49,600 --> 00:06:52,440 Speaker 1: in as district attorney, all those cities went to hell, 107 00:06:53,040 --> 00:06:57,520 Speaker 1: they're they're they're just disasters. You named the city it's 108 00:06:57,560 --> 00:07:01,719 Speaker 1: gotten in the toilet, certainly Los Angeles did, so you're 109 00:07:01,720 --> 00:07:05,840 Speaker 1: gonna now. So that's George Soros. Alex Soris is his 110 00:07:05,920 --> 00:07:09,400 Speaker 1: weasel millennial son, and it's one of these classic Wiener 111 00:07:09,480 --> 00:07:15,120 Speaker 1: guys where he's got the big black framed oversized glasses 112 00:07:16,040 --> 00:07:20,320 Speaker 1: and beard's stubble and usually wears a T shirt and 113 00:07:20,440 --> 00:07:24,760 Speaker 1: a suit jacket. And he's about it looks like he's 114 00:07:24,760 --> 00:07:29,760 Speaker 1: about four to eleven, and he's the new know it all, 115 00:07:29,800 --> 00:07:33,080 Speaker 1: the new progressive darling know it all who's in charge 116 00:07:33,120 --> 00:07:37,040 Speaker 1: of the money. And so Newsom needs a lot of 117 00:07:37,040 --> 00:07:40,600 Speaker 1: money from Alex Soros. And they've been photographed together in Switzerland, 118 00:07:41,120 --> 00:07:46,640 Speaker 1: and Saus comes about to Newsom's Nat Naval and here's 119 00:07:46,680 --> 00:07:49,800 Speaker 1: Bessent talking more about news somebody mentioned Sous again. 120 00:07:50,040 --> 00:07:52,560 Speaker 3: I think Evin Newsom may be cracking up with some 121 00:07:52,600 --> 00:07:54,640 Speaker 3: of these things he's saying. I think he may be 122 00:07:54,640 --> 00:07:58,880 Speaker 3: in over his hairdoo. And being on the national stage 123 00:07:58,920 --> 00:08:03,240 Speaker 3: is very different than being governor of California with no 124 00:08:03,440 --> 00:08:08,160 Speaker 3: signature achievements, but to say strange things like President Trump 125 00:08:08,240 --> 00:08:10,520 Speaker 3: is a Tyrannosaurus rex what the hell. 126 00:08:10,400 --> 00:08:10,960 Speaker 2: Does that mean? 127 00:08:11,240 --> 00:08:13,640 Speaker 3: You know, I could say Gavin Newsom is a bronosaurus 128 00:08:13,920 --> 00:08:15,680 Speaker 3: with the brain the size of a walnut. 129 00:08:16,160 --> 00:08:18,680 Speaker 2: And if you brought the knee pads. 130 00:08:18,680 --> 00:08:20,960 Speaker 5: Maybe that was for his meeting with Alex Soros. 131 00:08:21,080 --> 00:08:21,520 Speaker 2: I don't know. 132 00:08:22,960 --> 00:08:28,560 Speaker 1: Oh, oh, that's a repulsive, disgusting picture there, Yeah, that 133 00:08:28,720 --> 00:08:35,160 Speaker 1: was he was getting interviewed about politicos. Dasha Burns said, 134 00:08:35,679 --> 00:08:41,880 Speaker 1: some some events, this, this, this, this is how Newsom 135 00:08:41,960 --> 00:08:46,839 Speaker 1: is getting treated on the international stage. Do you notice 136 00:08:46,880 --> 00:08:51,800 Speaker 1: he didn't bring any great ideas. He just made kneepad 137 00:08:51,920 --> 00:08:57,160 Speaker 1: cracks and some nonsense about mating with Trump and your 138 00:08:57,200 --> 00:09:02,400 Speaker 1: meeting with the Tyrannosaurus rex. Nobody understood that one, and 139 00:09:03,080 --> 00:09:06,120 Speaker 1: carrying on about how you have to get a spine 140 00:09:06,200 --> 00:09:08,480 Speaker 1: and stand up against Trump and this and that and 141 00:09:08,480 --> 00:09:10,520 Speaker 1: the other thing. And the first thing all the Europeans 142 00:09:10,559 --> 00:09:12,920 Speaker 1: did is go behind closed doors and work out a 143 00:09:12,960 --> 00:09:17,200 Speaker 1: deal so that our military can protect their asses and 144 00:09:17,240 --> 00:09:22,720 Speaker 1: ours by setting up a missile defense well a number 145 00:09:22,720 --> 00:09:28,920 Speaker 1: of missile defense bases in Greenland. So I don't I 146 00:09:28,920 --> 00:09:31,199 Speaker 1: don't get anything that's going on. I'll tell you this though, 147 00:09:31,960 --> 00:09:37,160 Speaker 1: and this is part of the phoniness. If you're a 148 00:09:37,200 --> 00:09:39,640 Speaker 1: big Newsom supporter because you love the way he goes 149 00:09:39,679 --> 00:09:40,360 Speaker 1: after Trump. 150 00:09:41,480 --> 00:09:41,680 Speaker 2: Well. 151 00:09:41,720 --> 00:09:46,200 Speaker 1: According to The Daily Beast, Trump and Newsom were piling around. 152 00:09:46,240 --> 00:09:48,520 Speaker 1: By the way, Daily Beast is a left wing outlet, too, 153 00:09:48,840 --> 00:09:52,040 Speaker 1: Trump and Newsom were palling around on the sidelines of 154 00:09:52,080 --> 00:09:56,840 Speaker 1: the World Economic Forum after trading insults in front of 155 00:09:56,880 --> 00:10:02,120 Speaker 1: the audience. But Mark Halpern is a longtime writer and 156 00:10:02,160 --> 00:10:05,680 Speaker 1: he's the editor in chief of something called two Way 157 00:10:06,280 --> 00:10:10,000 Speaker 1: said he spoke with sources in both camps about Trump 158 00:10:10,000 --> 00:10:14,080 Speaker 1: and Newsom spending some friendly private time in Davos, and 159 00:10:14,120 --> 00:10:16,160 Speaker 1: they seem to genuinely like each other. 160 00:10:19,480 --> 00:10:20,440 Speaker 2: Also, the White. 161 00:10:20,200 --> 00:10:24,320 Speaker 1: House Chief of Staff Susie Wilds, Press Secretary Caroline Levitt, 162 00:10:24,520 --> 00:10:26,920 Speaker 1: Deputy chiefs of Staff James Blair and Steven Miller were 163 00:10:26,920 --> 00:10:30,760 Speaker 1: all present for the meeting. Newsoon got in a few 164 00:10:30,840 --> 00:10:37,400 Speaker 1: jabs in a jovial and jokey manner. I think they 165 00:10:37,559 --> 00:10:40,960 Speaker 1: like each other, Halprin said, I think they genuinely like 166 00:10:41,000 --> 00:10:43,440 Speaker 1: each other. They both give each other hell and there's 167 00:10:43,480 --> 00:10:45,440 Speaker 1: a little bit of admiration that comes out of that. 168 00:10:46,320 --> 00:10:50,800 Speaker 1: So all you people who love Newsom because he's all 169 00:10:50,840 --> 00:10:56,640 Speaker 1: fire and brimstone about Trump, that's an act he's faking 170 00:10:56,720 --> 00:11:00,640 Speaker 1: it to con you into voting for him. He admires 171 00:11:00,679 --> 00:11:04,920 Speaker 1: Trump because Trump got the prize that he wants, and 172 00:11:04,960 --> 00:11:07,600 Speaker 1: he's trying to figure out how Trump did it, So 173 00:11:07,640 --> 00:11:12,280 Speaker 1: that's why he's doing the insult routine on Twitter. You're 174 00:11:12,280 --> 00:11:18,160 Speaker 1: being scammed, of course you are. Continue with your crush. 175 00:11:18,480 --> 00:11:22,840 Speaker 6: You're listening to John Cobelt on demand from KFI AM 176 00:11:22,840 --> 00:11:23,400 Speaker 6: six forty. 177 00:11:25,160 --> 00:11:28,240 Speaker 1: You know, the uh one of the central tenets of 178 00:11:28,600 --> 00:11:34,760 Speaker 1: communism and socialism is that we're all supposed to live similarly. 179 00:11:35,760 --> 00:11:41,240 Speaker 1: We all have the same kind of shelter, apartment or house. 180 00:11:41,800 --> 00:11:45,160 Speaker 1: Nobody gets to live with any advantages. Anybody who makes 181 00:11:45,160 --> 00:11:47,880 Speaker 1: more money has their money taken away from them and 182 00:11:47,920 --> 00:11:50,800 Speaker 1: it's spread out to poor people to raise their standard. 183 00:11:51,440 --> 00:11:56,200 Speaker 1: And you know, Karen Bass studied long and hard in 184 00:11:56,240 --> 00:11:59,319 Speaker 1: the school of communism. She took many many trips when 185 00:11:59,360 --> 00:12:02,400 Speaker 1: she was young to Cuba. She was a fangirl of 186 00:12:02,800 --> 00:12:07,240 Speaker 1: Fidel Castro. She has said publicly that she was really 187 00:12:07,360 --> 00:12:10,280 Speaker 1: taken by his charisma and his speaking style, and she 188 00:12:10,320 --> 00:12:14,960 Speaker 1: went to Cuba regularly to enjoy Castro's speeches. And she 189 00:12:15,080 --> 00:12:23,360 Speaker 1: was with some radical Cuba loving group called the Vinceamos brigade. 190 00:12:24,000 --> 00:12:27,800 Speaker 1: And what I've seen, especially in the last year or two, 191 00:12:28,640 --> 00:12:34,720 Speaker 1: is she is implementing, either through action or neglect, those 192 00:12:35,440 --> 00:12:41,880 Speaker 1: communist socialist policies, and she's destroying the nice neighborhoods in 193 00:12:41,920 --> 00:12:46,440 Speaker 1: the city. Now, the Palisades she let burn. And I 194 00:12:46,440 --> 00:12:49,560 Speaker 1: read another story about how all the politicians are maneuvering 195 00:12:49,600 --> 00:12:54,199 Speaker 1: to get affordable housing there, and I'm sure there's corrupt 196 00:12:54,200 --> 00:12:59,120 Speaker 1: developers who've cut deals. Then we told you yesterday how 197 00:12:59,200 --> 00:13:06,719 Speaker 1: the city will not fix the broken street lights. They 198 00:13:06,720 --> 00:13:09,560 Speaker 1: allowed the copper thieves to steal so much copper wire. 199 00:13:10,160 --> 00:13:12,760 Speaker 1: The copper thieves were also allowed to steal all the 200 00:13:12,920 --> 00:13:20,360 Speaker 1: extra wire stored well in city storage. So the wire 201 00:13:20,480 --> 00:13:23,679 Speaker 1: was pulled out of the street lamp set up, and 202 00:13:23,720 --> 00:13:26,960 Speaker 1: then the extra wire to replace it, well, that's gone too. 203 00:13:27,040 --> 00:13:32,280 Speaker 1: They broke into the lockers. So and Hancock Park is 204 00:13:32,520 --> 00:13:35,920 Speaker 1: really nice, really upscale. Now near Hancock Park, like just 205 00:13:35,960 --> 00:13:38,800 Speaker 1: to the east, just south of Hollywood is another cute 206 00:13:38,800 --> 00:13:42,160 Speaker 1: little neighborhood called Larchmont Village. And I thought I used 207 00:13:42,160 --> 00:13:44,760 Speaker 1: to go there a lot years ago for lunch or dinner. 208 00:13:44,760 --> 00:13:46,600 Speaker 1: But when both of us were working in that region 209 00:13:47,160 --> 00:13:52,640 Speaker 1: and it's really nice, and now under the Karen Bass regime, 210 00:13:56,080 --> 00:14:01,280 Speaker 1: Larchmond Village is overrun with prostitutes. Listen to this report 211 00:14:01,360 --> 00:14:04,040 Speaker 1: from KTLA reporter Rachel Mentov. 212 00:14:05,240 --> 00:14:09,640 Speaker 7: During the day, this largemtt neighborhood is picturesque. Longtime homeowners 213 00:14:09,679 --> 00:14:12,079 Speaker 7: say it's when the sun goes down that things become 214 00:14:12,200 --> 00:14:14,760 Speaker 7: sketchy and the unwonted encounters begin. 215 00:14:15,040 --> 00:14:19,560 Speaker 8: Mister taking advantage of a human need in a disgusting way. 216 00:14:19,760 --> 00:14:22,280 Speaker 7: Larry says he often wakes up to this, a woman 217 00:14:22,440 --> 00:14:28,240 Speaker 7: barely clothed walking across the street, used condoms, sanitary napkins, tissues, 218 00:14:28,240 --> 00:14:32,440 Speaker 7: and all kinds of remnants from illegal sex trafficking and prostitution. 219 00:14:32,880 --> 00:14:35,400 Speaker 8: I have to come out in the morning and scoop 220 00:14:35,480 --> 00:14:39,240 Speaker 8: up used condoms with seamen coming out of them. You 221 00:14:39,280 --> 00:14:41,680 Speaker 8: can't imagine how disgusting it is, and to be able 222 00:14:41,680 --> 00:14:43,920 Speaker 8: to have to do it every day, it's really quite remarkable. 223 00:14:44,040 --> 00:14:48,440 Speaker 2: Occasionally sometimes it's violent. The sex workers and John's are 224 00:14:48,440 --> 00:14:49,480 Speaker 2: getting in fights with each other. 225 00:14:49,520 --> 00:14:51,800 Speaker 9: They're screaming at each other, they're getting physical with each 226 00:14:51,840 --> 00:14:52,560 Speaker 9: other other. 227 00:14:52,680 --> 00:14:56,840 Speaker 7: Nearby neighborhoods impacted are Saint Andrew's Square, Windsor Square, in Koreatown, 228 00:14:57,280 --> 00:15:00,720 Speaker 7: Karen Gilman says police advise them not to interve, so 229 00:15:00,840 --> 00:15:03,640 Speaker 7: instead they've put up these signs letting the johns and 230 00:15:03,680 --> 00:15:07,560 Speaker 7: the pimps know they're on camera, and neighbors are recording 231 00:15:07,600 --> 00:15:10,480 Speaker 7: their license plates and sending them over to LAPD. 232 00:15:10,840 --> 00:15:13,680 Speaker 2: Wherever there's darkness and wherever there's space for a car to. 233 00:15:13,680 --> 00:15:17,840 Speaker 10: Park, even if there's parking permit restrictions posted. 234 00:15:17,840 --> 00:15:20,560 Speaker 8: It really doesn't matter. They want to do their thing. 235 00:15:21,120 --> 00:15:24,360 Speaker 7: Council member Hugo Sodo Martinez says he has created a 236 00:15:24,480 --> 00:15:27,960 Speaker 7: multi agency task force, which includes a partnership with the 237 00:15:28,000 --> 00:15:32,800 Speaker 7: nonprofit organization Journey Out, which helps victims of sex trafficking. 238 00:15:33,280 --> 00:15:36,040 Speaker 7: They are going to be patrolling these streets at night, 239 00:15:36,080 --> 00:15:37,160 Speaker 7: and apparently. 240 00:15:36,720 --> 00:15:37,640 Speaker 10: So is LAPD. 241 00:15:40,920 --> 00:15:47,560 Speaker 1: Apparently so is LAPD. LAPD should be the primary enforcer 242 00:15:48,360 --> 00:15:51,280 Speaker 1: to get rid of prostitutes and their johns and their pimps. 243 00:15:52,240 --> 00:15:56,960 Speaker 1: But it's more of this mumbo jumbo about these social groups. 244 00:15:57,280 --> 00:16:00,760 Speaker 1: Hugo Soto Martinez, by the way, died in the wool Socialist. 245 00:16:00,760 --> 00:16:01,800 Speaker 2: He's not even a Democrat. 246 00:16:02,480 --> 00:16:06,200 Speaker 1: He's with the Democratic Socialists of America and usually he 247 00:16:06,360 --> 00:16:11,440 Speaker 1: represents the ruined areas of La, but I guess Larchmont 248 00:16:11,560 --> 00:16:15,320 Speaker 1: is in his district, so he's allowed a nice neighborhood 249 00:16:15,360 --> 00:16:18,240 Speaker 1: in La to go to hell by bringing in the 250 00:16:18,280 --> 00:16:20,960 Speaker 1: prostitutes and the johns and the pimps that you normally 251 00:16:20,960 --> 00:16:21,880 Speaker 1: see on Figueroa. 252 00:16:23,600 --> 00:16:24,480 Speaker 2: But that's what they do. 253 00:16:25,680 --> 00:16:31,760 Speaker 1: So Palisades is burned and gone, Hancock Park is in 254 00:16:31,840 --> 00:16:35,880 Speaker 1: the dark now every night, and a lot of burglars 255 00:16:35,920 --> 00:16:38,720 Speaker 1: and looters are running free thieves all over the place 256 00:16:39,160 --> 00:16:44,080 Speaker 1: according to the locals. And here we have prostitution running 257 00:16:44,160 --> 00:16:48,640 Speaker 1: rampant in Larchmont. There aren't too many places left to go. 258 00:16:49,560 --> 00:16:57,160 Speaker 1: They're succeeding Hugo Soda, Martinez Bass, Fidel would be proud more. 259 00:16:57,200 --> 00:17:02,320 Speaker 6: Coming up, you're listening to John Cobels on demand from 260 00:17:02,400 --> 00:17:03,720 Speaker 6: KFI AM six. 261 00:17:03,720 --> 00:17:07,119 Speaker 1: Forty run every day from one until four o'clock.

A judge is determining whether the 266 00:17:21,760 --> 00:17:29,000 Speaker 1: Trump administration can actually build that ballroom. Well, they've already 267 00:17:29,000 --> 00:17:32,520 Speaker 1: torn down the East wing and they've already started construction, 268 00:17:33,320 --> 00:17:38,440 Speaker 1: and I guess somebody sued and a district judge wants 269 00:17:38,480 --> 00:17:41,840 Speaker 1: to know where the Trump administration thinks that he has 270 00:17:41,880 --> 00:17:45,240 Speaker 1: the power to build this thing. We'll talk to Royal 271 00:17:45,280 --> 00:17:48,920 Speaker 1: Oaks at three o'clock about it. We gotta circle back 272 00:17:48,960 --> 00:17:53,840 Speaker 1: to the massive fraud case today. I'm going to give 273 00:17:53,840 --> 00:17:56,680 Speaker 1: you the overview. Next hour, i'll give you more detail 274 00:17:57,720 --> 00:18:04,640 Speaker 1: because I found some interesting information along the sidelines. Alexander 275 00:18:04,720 --> 00:18:09,040 Speaker 1: Suffer is the man that the FEDS busted. Today's forty 276 00:18:09,080 --> 00:18:11,760 Speaker 1: two years old. Lives in Westwood in a really nice house, 277 00:18:12,200 --> 00:18:15,080 Speaker 1: and there's video of this really nice car, a range Rover, 278 00:18:15,359 --> 00:18:18,560 Speaker 1: being towed away, now property of the US government. He 279 00:18:18,720 --> 00:18:25,359 Speaker 1: stole twenty three million dollars in homeless money, and he 280 00:18:25,680 --> 00:18:28,199 Speaker 1: had a seven million dollar house in Westwood. The one 281 00:18:28,280 --> 00:18:30,919 Speaker 1: hundred and twenty five thousand dollars range Rover paid for 282 00:18:30,960 --> 00:18:34,760 Speaker 1: private school tuition, private jet travel, luxury resort stays in 283 00:18:34,800 --> 00:18:38,760 Speaker 1: Hawaii and other places. He stole twenty three million dollars 284 00:18:38,760 --> 00:18:41,560 Speaker 1: of your tax money. Money that came from Karen Bass's 285 00:18:42,080 --> 00:18:49,480 Speaker 1: Inside Safe program and Measure HS, which was the idiot 286 00:18:49,560 --> 00:18:54,560 Speaker 1: tax increase that the idiot voters passed. So Alexander Suffer 287 00:18:55,200 --> 00:19:01,399 Speaker 1: set up this fake nonprofit called Abundant Blessings. Why would 288 00:19:01,560 --> 00:19:06,480 Speaker 1: anybody question someone who's running Abundant Blessings? Why that sounds 289 00:19:06,480 --> 00:19:11,119 Speaker 1: so religious, so spiritual? How dare you act so critical 290 00:19:11,160 --> 00:19:14,800 Speaker 1: and so cynical When I see titles like that, I 291 00:19:14,800 --> 00:19:17,800 Speaker 1: immediately assume it's a cover for some kind of fraud. 292 00:19:17,960 --> 00:19:22,080 Speaker 1: And it was true, say the FEDS in Alexander Sufer's case. 293 00:19:22,520 --> 00:19:28,160 Speaker 1: Now what's really a hoot is LASA is the agency 294 00:19:28,240 --> 00:19:33,080 Speaker 1: that approved the money, Los Angeles Housing Services Authority, and 295 00:19:33,320 --> 00:19:37,800 Speaker 1: that is or was at the time, an operation run 296 00:19:37,920 --> 00:19:41,919 Speaker 1: jointly by the City of La Karen Bass, and the 297 00:19:41,960 --> 00:19:45,760 Speaker 1: County of Los Angeles. And Karen Bass had one of 298 00:19:45,760 --> 00:19:50,160 Speaker 1: her best friends of Alicia Adams Kellum, as the CEO, 299 00:19:50,920 --> 00:19:54,439 Speaker 1: and Karen Bass sent out a press release today saying 300 00:19:54,600 --> 00:19:58,879 Speaker 1: she can't both believe she's gonna have zero tolerance for 301 00:19:59,000 --> 00:20:01,480 Speaker 1: this kind of fraud. I can't believe that this guy 302 00:20:01,680 --> 00:20:07,439 Speaker 1: lied to the city, he allowed this. There was no vetting, 303 00:20:07,680 --> 00:20:12,440 Speaker 1: there was no investigation. Alexander Sufer just filled out forms, 304 00:20:13,160 --> 00:20:17,120 Speaker 1: and your friend, Felicia Adams Kellum ran an agency where 305 00:20:17,160 --> 00:20:22,640 Speaker 1: nobody checked, nobody called, nobody visited, and there were no 306 00:20:22,880 --> 00:20:27,359 Speaker 1: reports by Alexander Suffer saying here's what we did, here's 307 00:20:27,400 --> 00:20:30,160 Speaker 1: how many people we fed, how many how many homeless 308 00:20:30,160 --> 00:20:33,119 Speaker 1: we got off the streets? No, none of that, just 309 00:20:33,200 --> 00:20:38,760 Speaker 1: kept There were multiple he had multiple programs he'd applied to. 310 00:20:40,320 --> 00:20:44,760 Speaker 1: There was zero oversight from Karen Bass and her good 311 00:20:44,760 --> 00:20:49,600 Speaker 1: friend Valicia Adams Kellum. But Karen Bass zero tolerance as 312 00:20:49,600 --> 00:20:53,360 Speaker 1: far as she's concerned. Then I see this other character, 313 00:20:53,600 --> 00:20:57,960 Speaker 1: and this is what I wanted to get into, Kenneth Mheah. 314 00:20:58,920 --> 00:21:00,000 Speaker 2: She he's another. 315 00:21:00,000 --> 00:21:04,800 Speaker 1: Democratic Socialist of America member. These are not democrats. These 316 00:21:04,800 --> 00:21:09,040 Speaker 1: are hardcore socialists. And it's if you want to scare yourself, 317 00:21:09,560 --> 00:21:15,600 Speaker 1: go read the DSA websites about their platforms. We have 318 00:21:15,880 --> 00:21:19,439 Speaker 1: four maybe five council people who are DSA members, and 319 00:21:19,560 --> 00:21:23,680 Speaker 1: Kenneth Mahea and the DSA wants to have a majority. 320 00:21:24,119 --> 00:21:26,000 Speaker 1: They're trying to get to at least eight on the 321 00:21:26,119 --> 00:21:30,320 Speaker 1: La City Council. See you think it's bad, now, Cuba's coming. 322 00:21:30,480 --> 00:21:38,119 Speaker 1: Cuba's coming soon. So once Bill A. Saley announced and 323 00:21:38,160 --> 00:21:41,639 Speaker 1: he's the first assistant US Attorney, he announced this arrest 324 00:21:41,720 --> 00:21:44,720 Speaker 1: of Alexander soup for this morning. Mahe had jumped in 325 00:21:44,960 --> 00:21:46,840 Speaker 1: and said, well, wait, wait a second. In July of 326 00:21:46,920 --> 00:21:51,520 Speaker 1: twenty twenty four, we got a hotline a leging contractor 327 00:21:51,560 --> 00:21:54,520 Speaker 1: fraud at an inside safe hotel. 328 00:21:55,880 --> 00:21:56,080 Speaker 5: See. 329 00:21:56,080 --> 00:21:59,639 Speaker 1: One of Sufer's tricks was he put homeless people in 330 00:21:59,680 --> 00:22:02,680 Speaker 1: these side safe hotels and then didn't pay the bill. 331 00:22:04,320 --> 00:22:07,120 Speaker 1: He kept the money so we could buy the house 332 00:22:07,119 --> 00:22:11,040 Speaker 1: in Westward seven million dollars. And then so the stupid 333 00:22:11,080 --> 00:22:14,040 Speaker 1: asses at LASA then paid the hotel bill. So we 334 00:22:14,119 --> 00:22:18,320 Speaker 1: paid twice for the same hotel rooms for the same vagrants. 335 00:22:20,040 --> 00:22:21,840 Speaker 1: And now Mahia is saying, well, we got tipped off 336 00:22:21,840 --> 00:22:25,879 Speaker 1: in July of twenty twenty four, and then goes through 337 00:22:26,520 --> 00:22:29,920 Speaker 1: the case and how they had done an early investigation. 338 00:22:30,920 --> 00:22:35,680 Speaker 1: Here's the thing. It took sale to crack the case, 339 00:22:36,760 --> 00:22:44,920 Speaker 1: not Mahea. And where is Rob Bonta, the California Attorney General. Nowhere, 340 00:22:46,160 --> 00:22:52,160 Speaker 1: guy's filing fifty lawsuits against Trump. Look at this right 341 00:22:52,240 --> 00:22:54,960 Speaker 1: under his nose. You have to see the attorney got 342 00:22:54,960 --> 00:22:59,560 Speaker 1: a tip. Where is Rob Bonta? The newsims BENI me 343 00:23:00,640 --> 00:23:05,840 Speaker 1: he does no investigations of this. There's rampant fraud. How 344 00:23:05,880 --> 00:23:11,160 Speaker 1: come it's all the Trump people who are busting these cases, 345 00:23:12,960 --> 00:23:16,159 Speaker 1: arresting these people and taking them to court. It's the 346 00:23:16,200 --> 00:23:19,120 Speaker 1: Trump people. It's not the Bonta people. If it wasn't 347 00:23:19,160 --> 00:23:23,440 Speaker 1: given credit, it's not Mahea's people. They got the early tip. 348 00:23:25,040 --> 00:23:28,200 Speaker 1: But at the end of his little press release here 349 00:23:28,760 --> 00:23:34,720 Speaker 1: he says, our office's ability to provide accountability is constrained 350 00:23:34,760 --> 00:23:36,080 Speaker 1: by lack of resources. 351 00:23:36,480 --> 00:23:38,040 Speaker 2: We only have five. 352 00:23:38,320 --> 00:23:42,119 Speaker 1: Fraud waste and we only have five fraud waste and 353 00:23:42,160 --> 00:23:46,359 Speaker 1: abuse investigators, and the team is responsible for hundreds of 354 00:23:46,400 --> 00:23:52,320 Speaker 1: cases each year. So Karen Bass has defunded the fraud 355 00:23:52,400 --> 00:23:55,800 Speaker 1: investigators the way she defunded the fire department and defunded 356 00:23:55,840 --> 00:24:00,399 Speaker 1: the police department. There's no money for the fraud investigators 357 00:24:00,560 --> 00:24:04,120 Speaker 1: in the City Attorney's office. So even when they get tips, 358 00:24:04,600 --> 00:24:09,359 Speaker 1: people are calling in the fraud to Kenneth his office 359 00:24:09,880 --> 00:24:11,960 Speaker 1: and all they have is somebody to answer the phone, 360 00:24:12,040 --> 00:24:14,120 Speaker 1: or maybe not even that, maybe just they they've got 361 00:24:14,119 --> 00:24:16,440 Speaker 1: a working voicemail to take messages. 362 00:24:19,680 --> 00:24:21,760 Speaker 2: And then Dass says, well, we have zero tolerance. 363 00:24:22,800 --> 00:24:28,159 Speaker 1: Yeah, her friends are her friends are part of the fraud. 364 00:24:31,200 --> 00:24:33,320 Speaker 2: It's her safe program that's being defrayed. 365 00:24:33,480 --> 00:24:40,480 Speaker 1: But twenty three million dollars for one guy. I'm waiting 366 00:24:40,520 --> 00:24:43,320 Speaker 1: the day when they when they find the kickback trail, 367 00:24:43,560 --> 00:24:48,480 Speaker 1: the kickback trail, it's going to lead to whom. But 368 00:24:48,720 --> 00:24:54,600 Speaker 1: Nusseman Bonta do nothing. These are Bass's friends running these agencies. 369 00:24:54,920 --> 00:24:58,520 Speaker 1: Kenneth Manhea has five people and hundreds of cases. So 370 00:25:01,000 --> 00:25:05,080 Speaker 1: Trumps investigators come in and they're busting these cases. 371 00:25:07,840 --> 00:25:10,320 Speaker 2: I uh, I. 372 00:25:10,240 --> 00:25:14,439 Speaker 1: Don't have to say anymore. Why doesn't newsom In, Bonta 373 00:25:14,480 --> 00:25:20,240 Speaker 1: and Bass do this? It's our money's your money. I 374 00:25:21,000 --> 00:25:26,679 Speaker 1: got enough trouble. You know, I bought a house, I 375 00:25:26,720 --> 00:25:29,840 Speaker 1: had three kids. I had to send my kids to 376 00:25:29,880 --> 00:25:33,920 Speaker 1: private school because they like public schools suck so bad. 377 00:25:34,640 --> 00:25:36,920 Speaker 1: And it looks like Alexander Soufer is the same thing. 378 00:25:37,680 --> 00:25:39,440 Speaker 1: You know, he's buying a house in west Wood. He's 379 00:25:39,440 --> 00:25:41,159 Speaker 1: got these kids in private school. You need a lot 380 00:25:41,160 --> 00:25:45,240 Speaker 1: of money, man, You and I we go to work 381 00:25:45,359 --> 00:25:47,200 Speaker 1: to send our kids to school and have a house. 382 00:25:47,680 --> 00:25:52,959 Speaker 1: Sufer just applies to Karen Bess's homeless programs and nobody checks, 383 00:25:55,640 --> 00:25:58,959 Speaker 1: nobody vets them, nobody investigates even after complaints come in. 384 00:26:00,160 --> 00:26:01,800 Speaker 1: It looked like but he is trying to take credit. Well, 385 00:26:01,840 --> 00:26:04,200 Speaker 1: you know we do about this in July twenty twenty four. 386 00:26:04,400 --> 00:26:09,800 Speaker 1: Well it's January twenty twenty six. Buddy, as Bill Saley 387 00:26:09,880 --> 00:26:13,080 Speaker 1: who came in and it was his team that cracked 388 00:26:13,080 --> 00:26:16,359 Speaker 1: this case, not you. All you did is have a 389 00:26:16,440 --> 00:26:20,200 Speaker 1: voicemail message. We got more coming up. 390 00:26:21,960 --> 00:26:26,280 Speaker 6: You're listening to John Cobels on demand from KFI Am 391 00:26:26,320 --> 00:26:26,879 Speaker 6: six forty. 392 00:26:28,200 --> 00:26:31,359 Speaker 1: We have Royal Oaks, ABC News legal analysts. Right after 393 00:26:31,440 --> 00:26:35,320 Speaker 1: three o'clock. He's going to talk about a judge questioning 394 00:26:35,320 --> 00:26:37,800 Speaker 1: whether Trump has the power to build that ballroom on 395 00:26:37,840 --> 00:26:40,880 Speaker 1: the White House grounds. Two runs of the Moistline coming up, 396 00:26:41,119 --> 00:26:43,639 Speaker 1: and we'll give you a beginning to end summary of 397 00:26:43,640 --> 00:26:46,119 Speaker 1: the biggest news story of the day, and that is 398 00:26:46,200 --> 00:26:50,040 Speaker 1: Alexander Suffer being busted by the FEDS for a massive 399 00:26:50,080 --> 00:26:54,920 Speaker 1: twenty three million dollar homeless scam. Another one of these 400 00:26:54,960 --> 00:26:59,919 Speaker 1: fake nonprofits. His was called Abundant Blessings and none of. 401 00:26:59,880 --> 00:27:01,040 Speaker 2: Them money went to the homeless. 402 00:27:01,359 --> 00:27:03,639 Speaker 1: But he bought himself a seven million dollar home in 403 00:27:03,720 --> 00:27:07,359 Speaker 1: Westwood and went on luxury vacations, had one hundred and 404 00:27:07,359 --> 00:27:08,680 Speaker 1: twenty five thousand dollar rolls. 405 00:27:08,760 --> 00:27:09,040 Speaker 2: Royce. 406 00:27:09,280 --> 00:27:16,159 Speaker 1: His kids went to private school, and Karen Bess is 407 00:27:16,160 --> 00:27:19,000 Speaker 1: saying We're gonna have zero tolerance for this when one 408 00:27:19,040 --> 00:27:22,760 Speaker 1: of her best friends allowed it to happen at LASA 409 00:27:22,840 --> 00:27:28,520 Speaker 1: because Sulphil was never questioned, was never investigated, vetted nothing. 410 00:27:28,800 --> 00:27:33,520 Speaker 1: He was just allowed to loot us for twenty three million. Now, 411 00:27:34,800 --> 00:27:38,040 Speaker 1: if it's not fraud, it's hysteria. The latest hysteria, of course, 412 00:27:38,160 --> 00:27:42,919 Speaker 1: is over ice and it has infected even politicians at 413 00:27:42,920 --> 00:27:45,960 Speaker 1: the highest level in the state of Arizona. Of all places, 414 00:27:46,480 --> 00:27:51,480 Speaker 1: you have the Arizona Attorney General, Chris Mays, and she 415 00:27:51,600 --> 00:27:56,400 Speaker 1: gave an interview with NBC twelve a reporter named Brahm Resna. 416 00:27:56,560 --> 00:28:00,480 Speaker 1: This is really interesting because it seems she's employed that 417 00:28:00,520 --> 00:28:07,560 Speaker 1: it would be okay to shoot ICE officers. We'll play 418 00:28:07,600 --> 00:28:08,920 Speaker 1: this and see what you think. 419 00:28:09,320 --> 00:28:10,760 Speaker 10: The other thing I want to bring up with you 420 00:28:11,040 --> 00:28:14,959 Speaker 10: that I'm worried about that makes Arizona very, very different 421 00:28:15,080 --> 00:28:22,280 Speaker 10: from almost every other state where this build up is happening, Bram, 422 00:28:22,480 --> 00:28:26,240 Speaker 10: is that we're a standard ground state. We have one 423 00:28:26,240 --> 00:28:29,639 Speaker 10: of the most expansive standard ground laws in the entire 424 00:28:29,720 --> 00:28:33,760 Speaker 10: country that rivals even Florida. We also have a lot 425 00:28:33,800 --> 00:28:36,960 Speaker 10: of guns in Arizona. We're gun culture in this state, 426 00:28:37,880 --> 00:28:42,920 Speaker 10: and you know, it's kind of a recipe for disaster 427 00:28:43,240 --> 00:28:49,280 Speaker 10: because you have these masked federal officers with very little identification, 428 00:28:49,920 --> 00:28:56,840 Speaker 10: sometimes no identification, wearing plain clothes and masks. And we 429 00:28:56,920 --> 00:29:00,080 Speaker 10: have a standard ground law that says that if you 430 00:29:00,240 --> 00:29:03,240 Speaker 10: reasonably believe that your life is in danger and you're 431 00:29:03,280 --> 00:29:08,880 Speaker 10: in your house or your car, or at your on 432 00:29:08,920 --> 00:29:12,240 Speaker 10: your property, that you can defend yourself with lethal force. 433 00:29:15,160 --> 00:29:17,959 Speaker 9: I want to be careful with that and understand what 434 00:29:18,000 --> 00:29:20,880 Speaker 9: you're saying, because you know how that could be interpreted. 435 00:29:21,040 --> 00:29:24,400 Speaker 10: Well, but it's the fact. It's the fact that we 436 00:29:24,480 --> 00:29:28,400 Speaker 10: have a stand your ground law, and we have in 437 00:29:28,520 --> 00:29:36,080 Speaker 10: other states ununiformed, masked people who who can't be identified 438 00:29:36,160 --> 00:29:39,480 Speaker 10: as police officers. That is a problem. That's why, that's 439 00:29:39,520 --> 00:29:44,280 Speaker 10: why it's so important to have uniforms and to be identified, 440 00:29:44,520 --> 00:29:47,800 Speaker 10: especially in a state like Arizona that has a stand 441 00:29:47,840 --> 00:29:50,320 Speaker 10: your ground on Now, if someone were to now you're 442 00:29:50,360 --> 00:29:51,280 Speaker 10: not allowed. 443 00:29:50,920 --> 00:29:55,080 Speaker 9: To shoot, I want to Yeah, So let's yell us. 444 00:29:55,280 --> 00:29:58,520 Speaker 9: Let's put a big pause there and go into that question, 445 00:29:58,640 --> 00:30:01,040 Speaker 9: because you know there's not much Some might say you 446 00:30:01,040 --> 00:30:03,440 Speaker 9: are giving a license. No, I'm not to an individual 447 00:30:03,920 --> 00:30:05,280 Speaker 9: to shoot a peace officer. 448 00:30:05,320 --> 00:30:08,880 Speaker 10: Not absolutely not, But how do you know they're a 449 00:30:08,920 --> 00:30:12,520 Speaker 10: peace officer? That's the key. And so if there's a 450 00:30:12,560 --> 00:30:15,720 Speaker 10: situation where somebody pulls out their gun because they know 451 00:30:15,840 --> 00:30:19,800 Speaker 10: Arizona is a standard ground state, you're gonna then it 452 00:30:19,800 --> 00:30:24,280 Speaker 10: becomes did they reasonably know that they were a peace officer? 453 00:30:24,800 --> 00:30:27,120 Speaker 10: You know, I mean, this is a different set of 454 00:30:27,120 --> 00:30:29,400 Speaker 10: circumstances in the state of Arizona. 455 00:30:29,480 --> 00:30:33,200 Speaker 9: And so, but to be clear, you know it's ironic 456 00:30:33,280 --> 00:30:35,080 Speaker 9: because this is a Second Amendment. 457 00:30:34,840 --> 00:30:39,480 Speaker 10: Yeah issue, this is a Second Amendment issue, does I mean? 458 00:30:39,720 --> 00:30:42,200 Speaker 9: But to be clear, you're not telling folks you have 459 00:30:42,360 --> 00:30:46,200 Speaker 9: license if you are threatened well to shoot a peace officer. 460 00:30:46,360 --> 00:30:46,520 Speaker 4: No. 461 00:30:46,800 --> 00:30:51,440 Speaker 10: But but again, if you're being attacked by someone who 462 00:30:51,520 --> 00:30:55,520 Speaker 10: is not identified as a peace officer, how do you know? 463 00:30:56,440 --> 00:30:59,560 Speaker 10: I mean, if somebody comes at me wearing a mask. 464 00:31:00,000 --> 00:31:03,120 Speaker 10: By the way, I'm a gun owner. If somebody comes 465 00:31:03,120 --> 00:31:06,560 Speaker 10: at me wearing a mask and I can't tell whether 466 00:31:06,600 --> 00:31:11,160 Speaker 10: they're a police officer, what am I supposed to do? Honestly, Bram, 467 00:31:11,440 --> 00:31:16,080 Speaker 10: look what happened in Minnesota to the two legislators, one 468 00:31:16,160 --> 00:31:20,080 Speaker 10: of whom was killed by a guy impersonating a police officer. 469 00:31:20,480 --> 00:31:24,240 Speaker 10: That is why this is so incredibly incendiary. And again 470 00:31:24,440 --> 00:31:28,720 Speaker 10: it's a situation being caused by ICE in the federal government, 471 00:31:29,920 --> 00:31:33,360 Speaker 10: and we are a standard ground state, so it creates 472 00:31:33,400 --> 00:31:37,920 Speaker 10: this combustible situation. No, I am not suggesting that people 473 00:31:38,480 --> 00:31:42,080 Speaker 10: pull out their guns, but this is a don't tread 474 00:31:42,120 --> 00:31:42,800 Speaker 10: on me state. 475 00:31:44,760 --> 00:31:47,600 Speaker 1: Yeah, she was suggesting that she laid out the whole roadmap. 476 00:31:48,200 --> 00:31:50,200 Speaker 1: Should the ICE agent say. 477 00:31:50,080 --> 00:31:52,480 Speaker 2: Oh, he was wearing a mask. I didn't know who 478 00:31:52,640 --> 00:31:53,040 Speaker 2: he was. 479 00:31:53,680 --> 00:31:57,200 Speaker 1: I had no idea he was an ICE agent, a 480 00:31:57,240 --> 00:31:58,920 Speaker 1: federal law enforcement officer. 481 00:31:59,320 --> 00:32:02,600 Speaker 2: Yeah, adding my ground, I couldn't identify them. He should 482 00:32:02,640 --> 00:32:03,480 Speaker 2: have been wearing a mask. 483 00:32:03,840 --> 00:32:07,440 Speaker 1: She let out the whole case pretty much saying, hey, 484 00:32:07,440 --> 00:32:08,239 Speaker 1: you'll get away with it. 485 00:32:09,000 --> 00:32:11,080 Speaker 2: Arizona law got this big louhall. 486 00:32:11,320 --> 00:32:15,480 Speaker 1: So you could shoot an ICE officer and I say, 487 00:32:15,680 --> 00:32:20,120 Speaker 1: it's on your ground.

They're trying to whip up people's 490 00:32:28,760 --> 00:32:31,920 Speaker 1: anger and passions so that we have massive shootouts in 491 00:32:31,960 --> 00:32:37,520 Speaker 1: the street simply because illegal aliens break the law and 492 00:32:37,600 --> 00:32:42,600 Speaker 1: have been living here and getting subsidized with huge amounts 493 00:32:42,600 --> 00:32:43,520 Speaker 1: of our tax money. 494 00:32:44,640 --> 00:32:45,280 Speaker 2: Unbelievable. 495 00:32:45,280 --> 00:32:49,680 Speaker 1: All right, Royal Oaks next, because there's another judge looking 496 00:32:49,720 --> 00:32:54,160 Speaker 1: at whether Trump this time can build his ballroom in 497 00:32:54,720 --> 00:33:00,240 Speaker 1: the White House.
