1 00:00:00,040 --> 00:00:02,480 Speaker 1: Plenty ahead, we got the Moistline folks coming in the 2 00:00:02,480 --> 00:00:05,480 Speaker 1: five o'clock hour. This will be their last appearance of 3 00:00:05,559 --> 00:00:10,040 Speaker 1: twenty two. That's it, the last Moistline of the year. Also, 4 00:00:10,320 --> 00:00:12,200 Speaker 1: later on this hour, we're going to talk to someone 5 00:00:12,240 --> 00:00:15,000 Speaker 1: who is behind the attempted recall of Kevin di Leone 6 00:00:15,080 --> 00:00:18,800 Speaker 1: from office as Los Angeles City Council member. Yep, they 7 00:00:18,880 --> 00:00:22,120 Speaker 1: got approval to start collecting signatures, and we'll talk to 8 00:00:22,160 --> 00:00:25,640 Speaker 1: one of the organizers in about thirty minutes. Well, as 9 00:00:25,680 --> 00:00:28,400 Speaker 1: he does frequently, Alex Stone for maybe she Knews is 10 00:00:28,400 --> 00:00:30,200 Speaker 1: going to come on and tell us that the police 11 00:00:30,200 --> 00:00:33,800 Speaker 1: in Moscow, Idaho have nothing on the investigation of this. 12 00:00:34,120 --> 00:00:36,120 Speaker 1: Over a month, they have nothing back to you. Okay, 13 00:00:36,479 --> 00:00:39,840 Speaker 1: thirty three days, are getting three days? Getting a little 14 00:00:39,840 --> 00:00:42,560 Speaker 1: tired of doing this? Yeah, Well, and now everything is 15 00:00:42,600 --> 00:00:44,880 Speaker 1: around this white car that we were talking about earlier 16 00:00:44,920 --> 00:00:48,159 Speaker 1: in the week, the twenty eleven and twenty thirteen Lantra 17 00:00:48,360 --> 00:00:51,720 Speaker 1: that they are really focused in on that they think, 18 00:00:51,760 --> 00:00:54,319 Speaker 1: and maybe they're going down the wrong road, but they 19 00:00:54,360 --> 00:00:56,720 Speaker 1: think that this is what is going to crack the 20 00:00:56,760 --> 00:01:00,360 Speaker 1: case for them, that maybe whomever was inside of this 21 00:01:00,680 --> 00:01:03,600 Speaker 1: a launtra that they believe was in the area around 22 00:01:03,600 --> 00:01:06,240 Speaker 1: the time of the murders that they might have information 23 00:01:06,280 --> 00:01:09,280 Speaker 1: on the crimes. It may be the killer, or they 24 00:01:09,480 --> 00:01:11,559 Speaker 1: may have just been an uber driver and driving through, 25 00:01:11,760 --> 00:01:14,360 Speaker 1: or you know, somebody jumping in and going to work. 26 00:01:14,640 --> 00:01:17,320 Speaker 1: They don't know. But now they're going out there and saying, Okay, 27 00:01:17,640 --> 00:01:19,760 Speaker 1: if you know of anybody who has a hidden a 28 00:01:19,840 --> 00:01:22,800 Speaker 1: launtra out there, we want to talk to them. Maybe 29 00:01:22,840 --> 00:01:24,760 Speaker 1: it's in a garage, maybe it hasn't been driven in 30 00:01:24,760 --> 00:01:27,800 Speaker 1: a while. The captain that's running all this Moscow police, 31 00:01:27,840 --> 00:01:29,520 Speaker 1: and maybe your neighbor has one in the garage that 32 00:01:29,560 --> 00:01:34,000 Speaker 1: they don't drive very often. Maybe there's one that's just 33 00:01:34,120 --> 00:01:38,000 Speaker 1: not on the registration database. Let us know. So now 34 00:01:38,040 --> 00:01:39,840 Speaker 1: here's the new wrinkle in this that there is a 35 00:01:39,880 --> 00:01:42,919 Speaker 1: gas station about a mile outside of this search area 36 00:01:43,040 --> 00:01:46,119 Speaker 1: that they have been focused in on looking for surveillance 37 00:01:46,240 --> 00:01:49,880 Speaker 1: video and any other evidence where this outside of that 38 00:01:50,000 --> 00:01:52,960 Speaker 1: area search area only by about a mile. Gas station 39 00:01:53,040 --> 00:01:55,919 Speaker 1: went back and looked at their video and on the 40 00:01:55,960 --> 00:01:58,360 Speaker 1: morning of the murders, around three forty five in the morning, 41 00:01:58,720 --> 00:02:03,080 Speaker 1: there is a image, grainy, not real close out on 42 00:02:03,120 --> 00:02:06,080 Speaker 1: the street image of a white car driving by well 43 00:02:06,360 --> 00:02:09,040 Speaker 1: police believe that may be the car that they're looking for, 44 00:02:09,400 --> 00:02:11,679 Speaker 1: could also be anybody who happened to be in a 45 00:02:11,720 --> 00:02:15,639 Speaker 1: white sedan driving by, but that is causing them. They 46 00:02:15,639 --> 00:02:17,880 Speaker 1: say that they have looked at all of the video 47 00:02:18,200 --> 00:02:21,000 Speaker 1: from within the search area. They don't seem to have 48 00:02:21,040 --> 00:02:23,480 Speaker 1: a whole lot. So now they're going to expand what 49 00:02:23,600 --> 00:02:26,320 Speaker 1: they want to see and the video and you know, 50 00:02:26,360 --> 00:02:30,239 Speaker 1: maybe where that gas station is, that maybe that's where 51 00:02:30,240 --> 00:02:32,799 Speaker 1: the killer drove either two or from the crime scene, 52 00:02:33,080 --> 00:02:34,919 Speaker 1: and that they're going to find more evidence out there. 53 00:02:35,000 --> 00:02:37,239 Speaker 1: The white the white car in the video in front 54 00:02:37,240 --> 00:02:40,760 Speaker 1: of the gas station is not necessarily the white car. 55 00:02:40,880 --> 00:02:43,160 Speaker 1: That it may not be, but they think maybe it 56 00:02:43,240 --> 00:02:45,200 Speaker 1: is at three forty five in the morning that there's 57 00:02:45,200 --> 00:02:47,399 Speaker 1: a white car. Now it could be any other white 58 00:02:47,440 --> 00:02:50,680 Speaker 1: car too. It really got nothing. So yeah, but now 59 00:02:50,720 --> 00:02:52,840 Speaker 1: they want to expand everything, and the chiefs we have 60 00:02:52,919 --> 00:02:57,640 Speaker 1: looked at the massive amounts of video footage, especially in 61 00:02:57,680 --> 00:03:01,520 Speaker 1: the critical camera areas, and we've looked at the twenty 62 00:03:01,520 --> 00:03:04,080 Speaker 1: four hours prior to and twenty four hours after of 63 00:03:04,120 --> 00:03:07,280 Speaker 1: those and now we're look extending that out even further 64 00:03:07,360 --> 00:03:11,040 Speaker 1: to other cameras and other time frames. So guys. The 65 00:03:11,120 --> 00:03:15,280 Speaker 1: parents of the victims, they're saying, really, only now that 66 00:03:15,480 --> 00:03:19,639 Speaker 1: you're looking beyond the immediate crime scene area for surveillance 67 00:03:19,720 --> 00:03:23,640 Speaker 1: video thirty three days later and Kaylie gonsolvea she was murdered. 68 00:03:23,639 --> 00:03:27,360 Speaker 1: Her parents they're saying, you gotta work faster than this. 69 00:03:27,560 --> 00:03:31,480 Speaker 1: That surveillance videos they get copied over constantly if you 70 00:03:31,520 --> 00:03:33,519 Speaker 1: don't pull them, and did they wonder will there be 71 00:03:33,560 --> 00:03:35,480 Speaker 1: anything out there or did they already lose that evidence. 72 00:03:35,520 --> 00:03:37,120 Speaker 1: There's a twenty four hour mark on a lot of 73 00:03:37,120 --> 00:03:39,680 Speaker 1: those little video cams. There's a you know, a seven day, 74 00:03:39,920 --> 00:03:42,360 Speaker 1: one month, a one month. We're hitting a month and 75 00:03:42,400 --> 00:03:44,760 Speaker 1: if yeah, if that, if the key part of the 76 00:03:44,760 --> 00:03:50,120 Speaker 1: evidence is outside that residence, then we we have to 77 00:03:49,760 --> 00:03:53,120 Speaker 1: get it now. They're frustrated at the pace of all 78 00:03:53,160 --> 00:03:55,440 Speaker 1: of this. The chief is saying that they're going to 79 00:03:55,520 --> 00:03:58,280 Speaker 1: work over Christmas and New Year's, that they're trying to 80 00:03:58,280 --> 00:04:01,160 Speaker 1: give people days off and relieve them they need some time. 81 00:04:01,400 --> 00:04:05,840 Speaker 1: Police are now searching through twenty two thousand registration records 82 00:04:06,040 --> 00:04:08,680 Speaker 1: for twenty eleven through twenty thirteen Elantra is in the 83 00:04:08,720 --> 00:04:11,920 Speaker 1: Pacific Northwest, trying to find one that hits them in 84 00:04:11,960 --> 00:04:14,840 Speaker 1: a way that maybe they need to dig a little 85 00:04:14,880 --> 00:04:17,120 Speaker 1: bit deeper on that one. They may have to expand 86 00:04:17,160 --> 00:04:19,600 Speaker 1: that beyond the area. There's just so many of these 87 00:04:19,680 --> 00:04:23,880 Speaker 1: vehicles out there, and that's the at least publicly, the 88 00:04:23,880 --> 00:04:26,800 Speaker 1: best that they've got right now is that they believe 89 00:04:26,839 --> 00:04:29,320 Speaker 1: that that white Elantra will have something to do with it. 90 00:04:29,360 --> 00:04:31,400 Speaker 1: But they don't know. They don't have a life, just 91 00:04:31,400 --> 00:04:35,320 Speaker 1: like they don't even have a description explaining why, Yeah, 92 00:04:35,320 --> 00:04:37,640 Speaker 1: they were fixating on the Elantra, other than they have 93 00:04:37,760 --> 00:04:40,240 Speaker 1: nothing else to do. They won't say they All they'll 94 00:04:40,240 --> 00:04:41,920 Speaker 1: say is they think that the person in there might 95 00:04:42,040 --> 00:04:44,600 Speaker 1: have some information, which is typically code for they think 96 00:04:44,600 --> 00:04:47,280 Speaker 1: the killer was there. But but but but they're not 97 00:04:47,320 --> 00:04:52,040 Speaker 1: saying that either. They really don't seem to know. All right, 98 00:04:52,240 --> 00:04:55,679 Speaker 1: I don't get it, but thank you for kind After 99 00:04:55,760 --> 00:04:58,480 Speaker 1: Christmas and New Year's do you think or it has 100 00:04:58,480 --> 00:05:01,159 Speaker 1: this gone cold? It's one of the have BI agents doing. 101 00:05:01,200 --> 00:05:03,400 Speaker 1: There's dozens of them up there. There are a lot 102 00:05:03,480 --> 00:05:06,640 Speaker 1: of them up there, and the chief says that they 103 00:05:06,640 --> 00:05:08,720 Speaker 1: are helping him out, that he is in charge of this, 104 00:05:09,120 --> 00:05:11,640 Speaker 1: that it's his case. Unless he gives it up, it 105 00:05:11,720 --> 00:05:13,880 Speaker 1: can't go federal at this point there's not a federal crime, 106 00:05:13,920 --> 00:05:16,480 Speaker 1: but he could give it to a larger state police 107 00:05:16,480 --> 00:05:21,000 Speaker 1: department or Idaho State Police. So he has them analyzing evidence, 108 00:05:21,160 --> 00:05:25,440 Speaker 1: looking at evidence, talking to witnesses who now kids have 109 00:05:25,480 --> 00:05:27,560 Speaker 1: gone home for Christmas or never came back after the 110 00:05:27,600 --> 00:05:32,640 Speaker 1: murders after Thanksgiving, that they're interviewing those students. They're kind 111 00:05:32,640 --> 00:05:34,880 Speaker 1: of doing the national image on all of this of 112 00:05:35,240 --> 00:05:37,400 Speaker 1: interviews or looking for evidence that they've got to do, 113 00:05:37,480 --> 00:05:40,560 Speaker 1: but none of it is, at least on the surface 114 00:05:40,560 --> 00:05:42,719 Speaker 1: of it. And everybody wanted to give the police the 115 00:05:42,720 --> 00:05:45,240 Speaker 1: benefit of the doubt early on, but we're over a 116 00:05:45,279 --> 00:05:48,200 Speaker 1: month into this and they've got nobody What about the 117 00:05:48,279 --> 00:05:51,840 Speaker 1: crime scene evidence through the lab, the forensics anything and 118 00:05:51,960 --> 00:05:54,320 Speaker 1: analyzing that. We know they sent something like one hundred 119 00:05:54,320 --> 00:05:57,280 Speaker 1: and fifty pieces of evidence to the lab and it 120 00:05:57,320 --> 00:06:00,640 Speaker 1: doesn't seem like anything conclusive as real to come back. 121 00:06:00,760 --> 00:06:04,400 Speaker 1: The police chief won't say any of that. We understand 122 00:06:04,440 --> 00:06:06,480 Speaker 1: the resources that they did get some things back, but 123 00:06:06,600 --> 00:06:10,200 Speaker 1: whether it was positive for a hit on DNA or not, 124 00:06:11,160 --> 00:06:13,479 Speaker 1: he won't say. And again, you know, if it seemed 125 00:06:13,480 --> 00:06:15,440 Speaker 1: like they had anything that they would have gone and 126 00:06:15,480 --> 00:06:18,800 Speaker 1: acted on it, all right, Alex, I'm sorry you have 127 00:06:18,800 --> 00:06:21,159 Speaker 1: to go through this. You got it. Thanks you guys, 128 00:06:21,440 --> 00:06:24,080 Speaker 1: Alex Stone, ABC News for KFI who gets the assignment. 129 00:06:24,120 --> 00:06:26,120 Speaker 1: It seems like a couple of times a week to 130 00:06:26,200 --> 00:06:28,960 Speaker 1: get updates on the murder of the four college students 131 00:06:29,000 --> 00:06:32,600 Speaker 1: in Moscow, Idaho. And today it's a fixation as it 132 00:06:32,680 --> 00:06:36,160 Speaker 1: was a few days ago on a white Hyundai Lantra 133 00:06:36,800 --> 00:06:40,239 Speaker 1: somewhere between the make years of twenty eleven to twenty thirteen. 134 00:06:41,120 --> 00:06:44,360 Speaker 1: They're fishing through twenty two thousand registrations in the area 135 00:06:44,480 --> 00:06:49,280 Speaker 1: for a car like that. Soot. That's sad, all right, 136 00:06:49,320 --> 00:06:51,520 Speaker 1: We got more coming up. It's the Johnny Ken Show 137 00:06:51,560 --> 00:06:54,040 Speaker 1: on kf I Am six forty live everywhere in the 138 00:06:54,080 --> 00:06:56,680 Speaker 1: iHeartRadio app Coming up after the news at three thirty, 139 00:06:56,680 --> 00:07:00,000 Speaker 1: our first chance to talk to somebody behind the latest 140 00:07:00,160 --> 00:07:04,320 Speaker 1: attempt to recall from office. La City Councilman Kevin de Leon, 141 00:07:04,880 --> 00:07:07,360 Speaker 1: who we could go today got into a little scuffle. 142 00:07:07,400 --> 00:07:11,120 Speaker 1: They were an activist at a toy giveaway event, a 143 00:07:11,200 --> 00:07:14,200 Speaker 1: holiday event. He even had his Santa cap knocked off 144 00:07:15,440 --> 00:07:20,800 Speaker 1: in the scuffle. And he will not quit and spokeshole 145 00:07:20,840 --> 00:07:23,360 Speaker 1: and I think DeLeon was on CNN recently made that clear, 146 00:07:23,440 --> 00:07:25,720 Speaker 1: so I will not quit. So these activists are gonna 147 00:07:25,760 --> 00:07:29,120 Speaker 1: keep chasing him, and they're gonna keep having fish fights. Maybe, 148 00:07:29,880 --> 00:07:32,520 Speaker 1: but if they get a recall in the ballot and 149 00:07:32,680 --> 00:07:35,160 Speaker 1: he's removed that way, well they get their wish, right. 150 00:07:35,360 --> 00:07:38,280 Speaker 1: It could take a while. We'll talk about it after 151 00:07:38,360 --> 00:07:41,240 Speaker 1: three thirty with one of the organizers who reached out 152 00:07:41,240 --> 00:07:43,800 Speaker 1: to us and said they wanted to come on the 153 00:07:43,800 --> 00:07:50,120 Speaker 1: show because they probably need money. Well, we've seen this before, 154 00:07:50,160 --> 00:07:53,840 Speaker 1: in fact, in this story in the Associated Press, John, 155 00:07:53,840 --> 00:07:57,000 Speaker 1: I've ever been to the California Library personally, I have 156 00:07:57,080 --> 00:08:00,240 Speaker 1: not the California Library. There is apparently like one big 157 00:08:00,280 --> 00:08:04,000 Speaker 1: state library called the California State Library. Never heard of it. 158 00:08:04,080 --> 00:08:08,520 Speaker 1: No where is it? Probably Sacramento region, But I don't know. 159 00:08:08,560 --> 00:08:10,640 Speaker 1: Trying to think the last time I was in a library. 160 00:08:11,720 --> 00:08:14,040 Speaker 1: It's been a while for me too, like as an 161 00:08:14,040 --> 00:08:18,080 Speaker 1: actual UH user, because I went through I went through 162 00:08:18,120 --> 00:08:20,520 Speaker 1: some smell to a library. Was it the book print, 163 00:08:20,600 --> 00:08:23,800 Speaker 1: the book? I would imagine it's the paper, Yeah, the paper, 164 00:08:24,120 --> 00:08:28,119 Speaker 1: like the certain smell. Yeah, but yeah, I remember sometimes 165 00:08:28,120 --> 00:08:29,600 Speaker 1: you go down the aisles and you'd see all the 166 00:08:29,600 --> 00:08:33,080 Speaker 1: coding and sometimes you know the way the books are filed, 167 00:08:33,080 --> 00:08:37,679 Speaker 1: and probably not since my kids were a little toddlers 168 00:08:38,480 --> 00:08:47,160 Speaker 1: and they would have little reading. Uh no, no, no, no, no, 169 00:08:47,240 --> 00:08:50,240 Speaker 1: it's like before they even read it, like story time. 170 00:08:50,679 --> 00:08:53,160 Speaker 1: Oh I see, I remember taking them to story time 171 00:08:53,200 --> 00:08:56,440 Speaker 1: over at the local library. Oh okay, but that would 172 00:08:56,440 --> 00:09:00,400 Speaker 1: be a long time ago. Now. Well, and it's written 173 00:09:00,440 --> 00:09:04,080 Speaker 1: seventy two year history. California has had more than two 174 00:09:04,160 --> 00:09:07,600 Speaker 1: hundred and twenty failed attempts to break the state up 175 00:09:08,040 --> 00:09:12,920 Speaker 1: into smaller states. That's the history. Here comes the latest 176 00:09:13,559 --> 00:09:19,800 Speaker 1: and apparently the people of San Bernardino did vote narrowly 177 00:09:20,520 --> 00:09:25,400 Speaker 1: to approve a study for the county to secede from 178 00:09:25,440 --> 00:09:30,120 Speaker 1: the state. San Bernardino two point two million people. That's 179 00:09:30,120 --> 00:09:35,120 Speaker 1: a sercisable place. Yeah. It's biggest city, of course, is 180 00:09:35,120 --> 00:09:37,679 Speaker 1: the city of San Bernardino, the couple hundred thousand people. 181 00:09:38,559 --> 00:09:42,040 Speaker 1: It's twenty thousand square miles shan Bernardino County. It's big, 182 00:09:42,200 --> 00:09:46,719 Speaker 1: more land than nine states. Oh yeah. So it's what 183 00:09:46,800 --> 00:09:49,320 Speaker 1: people don't realize about California is such a huge freaking place. 184 00:09:49,320 --> 00:09:52,400 Speaker 1: At some of our counties outside states, San Bernardino County 185 00:09:52,440 --> 00:09:56,080 Speaker 1: goes all the way to the border California border Nevada 186 00:09:56,200 --> 00:10:00,800 Speaker 1: right in Arizona. Both. Yeah, that's now much of it's 187 00:10:00,840 --> 00:10:04,760 Speaker 1: desert useless. Yeah, and you probably know it if you're 188 00:10:04,800 --> 00:10:06,760 Speaker 1: on your way up to Vegas you go through Barstow 189 00:10:06,880 --> 00:10:09,080 Speaker 1: there it is right in the middle of San Bernardino. Boy, 190 00:10:09,120 --> 00:10:11,960 Speaker 1: with that area hold a lot of homeless people. They 191 00:10:12,960 --> 00:10:17,200 Speaker 1: ever started building camps out there. As I said, it 192 00:10:17,240 --> 00:10:20,720 Speaker 1: was narrowly approved. It might surprise people a couple of 193 00:10:20,760 --> 00:10:24,520 Speaker 1: things with this past election. It turns out that the 194 00:10:25,040 --> 00:10:29,400 Speaker 1: county actually does have more registered Democrat voters than Republicans 195 00:10:29,480 --> 00:10:33,720 Speaker 1: by about twelve percent, but they didn't vote for Newsom 196 00:10:33,800 --> 00:10:39,320 Speaker 1: too strongly in the last election. In fact, Newsom lost 197 00:10:39,320 --> 00:10:44,000 Speaker 1: the county by five points. Ah, how about that even 198 00:10:44,040 --> 00:10:47,840 Speaker 1: though Democrats out number of Republicans, he lost there. So 199 00:10:48,080 --> 00:10:51,800 Speaker 1: there is a level of frustration with state government. Yeah, 200 00:10:51,840 --> 00:10:55,360 Speaker 1: I mean it used to be all Republican territory up 201 00:10:55,440 --> 00:10:58,640 Speaker 1: until recently, and I don't have a Now it's twelve 202 00:10:58,679 --> 00:11:01,640 Speaker 1: point margin for Democrat registered voters of Republicans. And well 203 00:11:01,679 --> 00:11:06,160 Speaker 1: they've also had an enormous amount of immigration. Yeah, and 204 00:11:06,160 --> 00:11:10,719 Speaker 1: of course didn't they go bankrupt the Berdino City Sabardino 205 00:11:10,840 --> 00:11:14,839 Speaker 1: city went bankrupt. Yeah, yeah, right, you're right one solidly Republican. 206 00:11:15,720 --> 00:11:19,600 Speaker 1: Recent population growth has become more diverse and democratic. That's 207 00:11:19,760 --> 00:11:23,640 Speaker 1: hugely from migration, right, that's the migration, Yeah, which is 208 00:11:23,679 --> 00:11:27,000 Speaker 1: the pull point of allowing all that migration. They're making 209 00:11:27,040 --> 00:11:29,520 Speaker 1: the usual arguments that they don't get enough tax money 210 00:11:29,559 --> 00:11:32,240 Speaker 1: back for as much as they put into the state 211 00:11:32,280 --> 00:11:36,679 Speaker 1: coffers or the federal coffers. That's the argument being made 212 00:11:37,400 --> 00:11:41,840 Speaker 1: by some of the political leaders. An Ontario mayor Paul 213 00:11:41,880 --> 00:11:44,600 Speaker 1: Leone said, everybody outside this county thinks for the wild 214 00:11:44,600 --> 00:11:47,320 Speaker 1: wild West, but we get a pittance when it comes 215 00:11:47,320 --> 00:11:50,560 Speaker 1: to state and federal aid for Rhodes courthouses and transit. Well, 216 00:11:50,559 --> 00:11:52,120 Speaker 1: you know what it is is there's there's a lot 217 00:11:52,160 --> 00:11:56,200 Speaker 1: of people who may be democratic right in name, and 218 00:11:56,320 --> 00:11:59,600 Speaker 1: they're nominally you know, that's the way they vote, but 219 00:11:59,640 --> 00:12:03,439 Speaker 1: they're they're not into this woke garbage. They're being asked 220 00:12:03,440 --> 00:12:06,840 Speaker 1: to swallow a lot of new ideas. A lot of 221 00:12:06,840 --> 00:12:10,360 Speaker 1: them are weird, a lot of them are crazy, like 222 00:12:11,400 --> 00:12:16,920 Speaker 1: the climate stuff, you know, the the no gas powered cars. 223 00:12:17,960 --> 00:12:20,560 Speaker 1: I mean people, normal people look at that and say, 224 00:12:20,600 --> 00:12:23,800 Speaker 1: what are you nuts? And so there's too much what 225 00:12:23,920 --> 00:12:27,520 Speaker 1: are you nuts? Stuff coming out of Sacramento, And so 226 00:12:27,559 --> 00:12:29,760 Speaker 1: I think that is souring a lot of Democrats who 227 00:12:29,760 --> 00:12:32,520 Speaker 1: are not necessarily running to the Republican especially the Republican 228 00:12:32,559 --> 00:12:35,480 Speaker 1: Party in California has been a joke for twenty years. 229 00:12:35,720 --> 00:12:39,080 Speaker 1: I'm just an absolute waste of time joke. So they 230 00:12:39,160 --> 00:12:43,120 Speaker 1: there's there's nobody with an answer here, which leaves you frustrated. 231 00:12:43,200 --> 00:12:45,240 Speaker 1: Which so somebody says, hey, how about we used to 232 00:12:45,280 --> 00:12:50,600 Speaker 1: see it? Okay, fine, well, yeah, I think you're right. 233 00:12:51,200 --> 00:12:54,160 Speaker 1: Unlike places like La County and a few other counties, 234 00:12:54,760 --> 00:12:57,760 Speaker 1: there's Democrats in Sambradino County who are feeling the pinch 235 00:12:57,800 --> 00:13:01,480 Speaker 1: of inflation, the gas prices, the unemployment because a lot 236 00:13:01,480 --> 00:13:03,760 Speaker 1: of them have to drive into La and Orange County 237 00:13:03,760 --> 00:13:07,320 Speaker 1: for their jobs, and they're stuck on all those godforsaken 238 00:13:07,360 --> 00:13:11,880 Speaker 1: freeways that are backed up till hell twice a day, 239 00:13:12,320 --> 00:13:14,640 Speaker 1: using enormous amounts of gas, and the gas was six 240 00:13:14,679 --> 00:13:18,400 Speaker 1: to fifty a gallon, and you're sitting there and again, 241 00:13:18,440 --> 00:13:21,600 Speaker 1: this is not even politics anymore. This is just trying 242 00:13:21,640 --> 00:13:24,559 Speaker 1: to get through the day, and everything seems to be 243 00:13:24,600 --> 00:13:28,040 Speaker 1: a disaster. And then you layer on all the woke 244 00:13:28,120 --> 00:13:33,719 Speaker 1: garbage on top of it that nobody will shut up about. Yeah, 245 00:13:33,960 --> 00:13:37,319 Speaker 1: Kurt Hagman, Shairman of the Board of Supervisors, he is 246 00:13:37,360 --> 00:13:39,760 Speaker 1: the Republican. I believe he's been on our show. There's 247 00:13:39,800 --> 00:13:42,079 Speaker 1: a lot of frustration with state government and how public 248 00:13:42,120 --> 00:13:45,120 Speaker 1: dollars are spent far too a little coming to the county. 249 00:13:45,400 --> 00:13:47,440 Speaker 1: The county will look at whether billions of dollars in 250 00:13:47,480 --> 00:13:51,199 Speaker 1: state and federal funds are fairly shared with local governments 251 00:13:51,760 --> 00:13:55,440 Speaker 1: in the empire. Basically, what this means this vote is 252 00:13:55,440 --> 00:14:00,040 Speaker 1: to put together a commission to study the idea of 253 00:14:00,120 --> 00:14:04,640 Speaker 1: San Bernardino seceding and becoming its own state. This is 254 00:14:04,679 --> 00:14:09,640 Speaker 1: the process that is owner risk, if not impossible. John always, 255 00:14:09,679 --> 00:14:12,760 Speaker 1: of course remembers about the state of Jefferson people. Oh yeah, 256 00:14:12,880 --> 00:14:16,040 Speaker 1: two dozen northern California counties have been talking about forming 257 00:14:16,080 --> 00:14:19,640 Speaker 1: their own state, seceding from the state of California. Well, 258 00:14:20,240 --> 00:14:24,120 Speaker 1: it's difficult, they cumbersome, almost impossible process. See, it's very 259 00:14:24,160 --> 00:14:27,280 Speaker 1: difficult because there's so many hoops. You get to get 260 00:14:27,320 --> 00:14:31,400 Speaker 1: too many entities to agree to it. And then once 261 00:14:31,440 --> 00:14:35,080 Speaker 1: you become your own state, you are responsible entirely for 262 00:14:35,160 --> 00:14:38,120 Speaker 1: your own revenue and you have to get your own 263 00:14:38,400 --> 00:14:44,120 Speaker 1: state police, for example, and the northern counties in California, 264 00:14:44,120 --> 00:14:47,240 Speaker 1: and I've been there some and I understand their frustration, 265 00:14:47,960 --> 00:14:51,600 Speaker 1: you know, because all the stupid environmental laws and regulations 266 00:14:51,600 --> 00:14:58,040 Speaker 1: that they have in California. They can't they can't they 267 00:14:58,080 --> 00:15:00,200 Speaker 1: can't cut down the timber that they need to to 268 00:15:00,280 --> 00:15:03,160 Speaker 1: survive or do the mining that they need to do 269 00:15:03,200 --> 00:15:06,480 Speaker 1: to survive. They live off the resources of the earth, 270 00:15:07,240 --> 00:15:10,920 Speaker 1: and all those resources are constricted by all these nutty 271 00:15:11,000 --> 00:15:14,880 Speaker 1: environmental regulations. So that's what frustrates them. And there's no 272 00:15:15,000 --> 00:15:18,560 Speaker 1: replacing that economy. You know. The tech companies aren't moving 273 00:15:18,560 --> 00:15:21,240 Speaker 1: to northern California, nor are the people they're qualified to 274 00:15:21,280 --> 00:15:25,360 Speaker 1: work at the tech companies. So they're going to former committee. 275 00:15:26,200 --> 00:15:29,960 Speaker 1: That's the next step in this ballot measure. Former committee 276 00:15:29,960 --> 00:15:33,280 Speaker 1: composed of public and private sector members to do an 277 00:15:33,280 --> 00:15:36,600 Speaker 1: analysis of funding that will compare San Bernardino to other counties. 278 00:15:37,040 --> 00:15:38,840 Speaker 1: And I guess if they find out they're really getting 279 00:15:38,880 --> 00:15:41,360 Speaker 1: the short shrift, they would go to the next stage. 280 00:15:43,520 --> 00:15:45,600 Speaker 1: This may be more of a feel good measure just 281 00:15:45,680 --> 00:15:48,840 Speaker 1: for people who you have to get to leave the state, 282 00:15:48,880 --> 00:15:50,760 Speaker 1: you have to get to California legislature, and you also 283 00:15:50,760 --> 00:15:53,880 Speaker 1: have to get Congress, you would approve. Yes, you know, 284 00:15:54,000 --> 00:15:56,360 Speaker 1: there's a reason we haven't had a new state added 285 00:15:56,400 --> 00:16:00,720 Speaker 1: since nineteen fifty nine Hawaii, right, Yeah, that's the last 286 00:16:00,760 --> 00:16:02,480 Speaker 1: time that we had a new state editor and that 287 00:16:03,040 --> 00:16:09,400 Speaker 1: in Alaska. We're for natural for defense purposes now, because 288 00:16:09,440 --> 00:16:12,480 Speaker 1: we wanted to have you know, nuclear outposts to take 289 00:16:12,520 --> 00:16:15,840 Speaker 1: on Russia, China and anybody else who wanted to attack 290 00:16:15,920 --> 00:16:19,400 Speaker 1: us from the west. But I like how this Associated 291 00:16:19,400 --> 00:16:22,040 Speaker 1: Press story does lay out something that's lost on a 292 00:16:22,040 --> 00:16:25,360 Speaker 1: lot of people. The state of California. Now officially people 293 00:16:25,400 --> 00:16:28,520 Speaker 1: say thirty nine million. We no longer say forty million people. 294 00:16:28,560 --> 00:16:31,240 Speaker 1: And we are losing that seat in Congress fifty three 295 00:16:31,280 --> 00:16:34,440 Speaker 1: down to fifty two congressional seats. That's a big deal, 296 00:16:34,480 --> 00:16:37,720 Speaker 1: which is underplayed by the massive media here, including Niel 297 00:16:37,760 --> 00:16:41,360 Speaker 1: Segundo times. Yeah, losing a seat in the House of Representatives, 298 00:16:41,920 --> 00:16:44,800 Speaker 1: that doesn't happen. People are moving out. That's like a 299 00:16:44,880 --> 00:16:47,760 Speaker 1: rust belt thing. Well it's yeah, exactly, Well, no, this 300 00:16:47,840 --> 00:16:52,360 Speaker 1: place is dying and the South is now on the upswing, 301 00:16:52,560 --> 00:16:57,840 Speaker 1: and the Southwest states like Texas, Arizona, Nevada, they're on 302 00:16:57,880 --> 00:17:02,520 Speaker 1: the upswing. It's their turn. But California is spent. It's 303 00:17:02,680 --> 00:17:07,000 Speaker 1: it's a blown bag the way the Belt States were 304 00:17:07,080 --> 00:17:10,000 Speaker 1: blown bags a couple of decades ago. But you know what, 305 00:17:10,119 --> 00:17:14,720 Speaker 1: three hundred and fifty two companies moved their headquarters out 306 00:17:14,720 --> 00:17:18,440 Speaker 1: of California between twenty eighteen and twenty twenty one. Three 307 00:17:18,560 --> 00:17:24,960 Speaker 1: hundred and fifty two coming up next. Oscar is coming 308 00:17:25,000 --> 00:17:26,879 Speaker 1: on the show. He reached out to us and he 309 00:17:26,920 --> 00:17:30,080 Speaker 1: says he's part of the effort to collect signatures for 310 00:17:30,119 --> 00:17:34,040 Speaker 1: the petition to recall Kevin Dillon from the La City Council. 311 00:17:34,240 --> 00:17:36,600 Speaker 1: John ken kf I AM six forty five everywhere the 312 00:17:36,600 --> 00:17:39,320 Speaker 1: iHeart Radio app. Well, the three council members that were 313 00:17:39,320 --> 00:17:44,920 Speaker 1: caught on that infamous leaked audio recording, well one was 314 00:17:45,000 --> 00:17:47,760 Speaker 1: Nouri Martinez, she resigned a noo. There was Gil Sadillo. 315 00:17:48,359 --> 00:17:50,560 Speaker 1: He's done. He got beaten in the election and he's 316 00:17:50,560 --> 00:17:53,400 Speaker 1: done with the city council. The third one is still there. 317 00:17:54,040 --> 00:17:56,680 Speaker 1: His name, of course, now known by everybody even around 318 00:17:56,680 --> 00:17:59,560 Speaker 1: the country, is Kevin Dillon. We call him Kevin Leon 319 00:17:59,720 --> 00:18:03,280 Speaker 1: because he added the D for purposes of his campaigning. 320 00:18:04,600 --> 00:18:09,360 Speaker 1: He's refusing to quit. There was a scuffle last Friday night, 321 00:18:09,440 --> 00:18:11,240 Speaker 1: of course, after he showed up at the La City 322 00:18:11,280 --> 00:18:15,680 Speaker 1: Council meeting on Friday morning. The thing that really needs 323 00:18:15,680 --> 00:18:17,280 Speaker 1: to be done if you want him out of office 324 00:18:17,359 --> 00:18:21,000 Speaker 1: is a recall. Now there is now one officially underway. 325 00:18:21,000 --> 00:18:24,480 Speaker 1: They have to collect twenty thousand, four hundred and thirty 326 00:18:24,480 --> 00:18:28,280 Speaker 1: seven signatures to affect a recall vote for this fourteenth 327 00:18:28,400 --> 00:18:31,520 Speaker 1: district seat council district. We're going to talk to Oscar 328 00:18:31,640 --> 00:18:35,600 Speaker 1: Goodieris and he's one of the organizers for the recall 329 00:18:35,800 --> 00:18:38,399 Speaker 1: Kevin da Leon movement.

Well, 333 00:18:49,119 --> 00:18:51,720 Speaker 1: of course, we all know that he refuses to resign 334 00:18:51,880 --> 00:18:55,080 Speaker 1: from his position on the City Council. So the recall 335 00:18:55,119 --> 00:18:59,280 Speaker 1: for effort basically is a last resort, last effort to 336 00:18:59,760 --> 00:19:02,679 Speaker 1: ba basically draw a line in the sand. If he 337 00:19:02,720 --> 00:19:04,879 Speaker 1: does not resign, we are going to recall and we 338 00:19:04,880 --> 00:19:07,840 Speaker 1: need to collect signatures, as you say, over twenty thousand 339 00:19:07,920 --> 00:19:12,680 Speaker 1: signatures before March the thirty fourth of twenty twenty three 340 00:19:12,840 --> 00:19:16,240 Speaker 1: next year. And so we are looking for volunteers. We 341 00:19:16,280 --> 00:19:19,320 Speaker 1: are looking for, of course money to help fund the camping, 342 00:19:19,920 --> 00:19:23,160 Speaker 1: but most of all, we need people who are aware 343 00:19:23,320 --> 00:19:26,439 Speaker 1: of that in our district, the Los Angeles City Council 344 00:19:26,480 --> 00:19:30,040 Speaker 1: District of number fourteen. We need people today and we 345 00:19:30,080 --> 00:19:32,560 Speaker 1: need people in the future in case the recall does 346 00:19:32,640 --> 00:19:36,359 Speaker 1: go to fruition. We also need people to volunteer to 347 00:19:36,359 --> 00:19:42,200 Speaker 1: make sure that we have candidates that are within suitable 348 00:19:42,240 --> 00:19:45,639 Speaker 1: credibility to run for office. Besides what he said on 349 00:19:45,680 --> 00:19:48,920 Speaker 1: the tape, are there other issues that have been bubbling 350 00:19:50,119 --> 00:19:52,879 Speaker 1: in the district that would cause people to want to 351 00:19:52,880 --> 00:19:56,679 Speaker 1: recall him. Well, that's a good question. The thing is 352 00:19:56,720 --> 00:19:59,680 Speaker 1: that recording was made over a year ago, or approximately 353 00:19:59,680 --> 00:20:03,080 Speaker 1: a year ago. So within that year, the year before, 354 00:20:03,160 --> 00:20:06,200 Speaker 1: and the year after, what other things has he done 355 00:20:06,600 --> 00:20:12,000 Speaker 1: to garner such let's say, a repugnant and loss of 356 00:20:12,040 --> 00:20:16,080 Speaker 1: credibility of his office. I mean, we don't know. All 357 00:20:16,119 --> 00:20:19,439 Speaker 1: we know is that tape. So again, with all the 358 00:20:19,440 --> 00:20:24,240 Speaker 1: controversy going in city Hall, and again that melee that 359 00:20:24,320 --> 00:20:27,439 Speaker 1: happened for that Christmas event that he hosted where he 360 00:20:27,480 --> 00:20:31,040 Speaker 1: got into a fight, I feel that as a member 361 00:20:31,040 --> 00:20:33,840 Speaker 1: of the city council, he's lost credibility. He no longer 362 00:20:33,920 --> 00:20:38,240 Speaker 1: can be a representative because again he's a distraction and 363 00:20:38,280 --> 00:20:43,320 Speaker 1: we're losing our ability to represent our community effectively. He 364 00:20:43,359 --> 00:20:49,400 Speaker 1: has lost basically an effective position to govern from his position, 365 00:20:50,200 --> 00:20:54,680 Speaker 1: and again it's it's a lack of leadership and we 366 00:20:54,880 --> 00:20:57,000 Speaker 1: look at it as a vote of no confidence in 367 00:20:57,040 --> 00:20:59,440 Speaker 1: this recall. Do you believe that there is a deep 368 00:20:59,480 --> 00:21:02,000 Speaker 1: basic people in that council district who want them out? 369 00:21:02,000 --> 00:21:05,960 Speaker 1: Because last Friday, supporters of Deleone showed up and confronted 370 00:21:06,000 --> 00:21:09,440 Speaker 1: the protesters, who largely seemed to be from outside the district. 371 00:21:09,440 --> 00:21:14,240 Speaker 1: With these ever present activist groups, are you concerned about this? Well, 372 00:21:14,240 --> 00:21:18,440 Speaker 1: I'm not concerned because they don't live in the district. 373 00:21:19,000 --> 00:21:22,360 Speaker 1: They don't have any credibility or should even get involved 374 00:21:22,359 --> 00:21:24,720 Speaker 1: in it. I live in the district. I live in 375 00:21:24,760 --> 00:21:27,320 Speaker 1: a part of the district called El Sereno, not far 376 00:21:27,400 --> 00:21:31,040 Speaker 1: from Highland Park or Lincoln Heights. So I feel I 377 00:21:31,080 --> 00:21:34,960 Speaker 1: have a as a stakeholder, as a community activist and 378 00:21:35,440 --> 00:21:37,600 Speaker 1: a person who lives in the community. I feel it's 379 00:21:37,640 --> 00:21:40,800 Speaker 1: my duty to recall Kevin de Leone as well as 380 00:21:41,119 --> 00:21:43,800 Speaker 1: other members of the recall. Again, if you want to 381 00:21:43,800 --> 00:21:48,240 Speaker 1: know more about the recall, go to www dot recall, KDL, 382 00:21:48,720 --> 00:21:54,399 Speaker 1: dot org or dot org. Now I'm I'm living in 383 00:21:54,400 --> 00:21:57,840 Speaker 1: a district where we had a near recall, and even 384 00:21:57,840 --> 00:22:00,720 Speaker 1: though it felt a little bit short for mysterious reasons, 385 00:22:01,040 --> 00:22:03,960 Speaker 1: they're definitely from people I talked to in the district. 386 00:22:04,200 --> 00:22:07,840 Speaker 1: There was definitely a lot of support to get rid 387 00:22:07,840 --> 00:22:11,879 Speaker 1: of Mike Bonnet, the councilman there, and eventually he quit 388 00:22:12,040 --> 00:22:14,360 Speaker 1: before he was going to lose the next election. But 389 00:22:14,400 --> 00:22:16,879 Speaker 1: there were so many people talking, and they were talking 390 00:22:16,920 --> 00:22:20,280 Speaker 1: about the hard issues of the homeless encampments that were 391 00:22:20,320 --> 00:22:24,159 Speaker 1: spreading everywhere and the way Bonnet was handling that issue. 392 00:22:24,800 --> 00:22:27,480 Speaker 1: When you talk to people, do you get the sense 393 00:22:28,000 --> 00:22:31,280 Speaker 1: that there is a critical mass fed up with him, 394 00:22:31,320 --> 00:22:35,000 Speaker 1: disgusted with him? Yes, there is a critical mass, And 395 00:22:35,000 --> 00:22:38,840 Speaker 1: in fact, this is a bipartisan effort both by Republicans 396 00:22:38,880 --> 00:22:42,080 Speaker 1: and Democrats in the district, people who live in the community, 397 00:22:42,560 --> 00:22:46,679 Speaker 1: who are just basically tired of all the drama and 398 00:22:46,880 --> 00:22:51,840 Speaker 1: the problems that are occurring. Again, it's not a political 399 00:22:51,880 --> 00:22:56,280 Speaker 1: issue in the sense that we don't have representation now 400 00:22:56,920 --> 00:22:59,080 Speaker 1: in the city council. Every time he goes to the 401 00:22:59,080 --> 00:23:03,920 Speaker 1: city council, its disrupted by protesters and let's just say, 402 00:23:04,000 --> 00:23:05,920 Speaker 1: let's just say this all blows over in a year. 403 00:23:06,680 --> 00:23:10,680 Speaker 1: He still has that stigma of what has he done 404 00:23:11,040 --> 00:23:15,920 Speaker 1: and what he could have probably done, and again it 405 00:23:15,960 --> 00:23:19,359 Speaker 1: just makes him less credible as a member of the 406 00:23:19,359 --> 00:23:22,679 Speaker 1: city council. As so we we're focusing more on the 407 00:23:22,680 --> 00:23:27,000 Speaker 1: fact that we need to have new representation that way 408 00:23:27,040 --> 00:23:30,080 Speaker 1: we can get things done. And we have a history 409 00:23:30,119 --> 00:23:34,560 Speaker 1: in the City Council District fourteen of basically people like 410 00:23:34,680 --> 00:23:38,720 Speaker 1: Josie Weezar and other politicians who have taken money under 411 00:23:38,760 --> 00:23:42,120 Speaker 1: the table and crooked politicians and all kinds of backdoor 412 00:23:42,200 --> 00:23:46,520 Speaker 1: deals and people violating the Brown Act. And so we're 413 00:23:46,560 --> 00:23:51,240 Speaker 1: looking for new representation today. Hopefully he resigns, but if 414 00:23:51,240 --> 00:23:53,439 Speaker 1: he doesn't resign, we're going to go forward with the recall. 415 00:23:53,800 --> 00:23:56,719 Speaker 1: And again we do need money and volunteers. Yeah, I mean, 416 00:23:57,960 --> 00:24:00,880 Speaker 1: people have to support a better call in candidate. Here, 417 00:24:01,160 --> 00:24:05,320 Speaker 1: we'se are followed by Dai Leone. That is a bad run. Yes, 418 00:24:05,440 --> 00:24:07,960 Speaker 1: I agree, And I mean we've had, you know, other 419 00:24:08,040 --> 00:24:11,320 Speaker 1: representations that wasn't so good. I don't want to mention 420 00:24:11,359 --> 00:24:14,080 Speaker 1: those names because I don't want to dilute or take 421 00:24:14,119 --> 00:24:17,960 Speaker 1: away from the fact that the focus on this recall 422 00:24:18,160 --> 00:24:22,240 Speaker 1: is Kevin de Leone. He's no longer a credible representation 423 00:24:22,600 --> 00:24:26,879 Speaker 1: for our district, and he's lost credibility, and he's no 424 00:24:26,920 --> 00:24:29,639 Speaker 1: longer an effective leader in our community. Oh that's an 425 00:24:29,680 --> 00:24:34,240 Speaker 1: interesting angle that, regardless of what people think about his comments, 426 00:24:34,320 --> 00:24:38,400 Speaker 1: he just can't be effective anymore. Yeah, yeah, he can't 427 00:24:38,400 --> 00:24:42,400 Speaker 1: be effective. He's no longer his voice has been muted 428 00:24:42,400 --> 00:24:45,520 Speaker 1: by the fact that he was involved in that. I 429 00:24:45,560 --> 00:24:51,000 Speaker 1: would say a crony type atmosphere where they're talking about, 430 00:24:51,359 --> 00:24:55,840 Speaker 1: you know, jerrymandering the districts and then talking about racial 431 00:24:55,880 --> 00:24:59,800 Speaker 1: aspects about other people and their children and comparing them 432 00:24:59,840 --> 00:25:05,480 Speaker 1: to handbags. That's cringeworthy enough. But again, now he's no 433 00:25:05,560 --> 00:25:07,640 Speaker 1: longer an effective member. He can't go to the city 434 00:25:07,640 --> 00:25:11,080 Speaker 1: council without disruption. He can't even hold a Christmas event 435 00:25:11,119 --> 00:25:15,520 Speaker 1: without disruption. I don't see any point in keeping them 436 00:25:15,520 --> 00:25:18,840 Speaker 1: as a representation of our leadership in our community. We 437 00:25:18,920 --> 00:25:22,600 Speaker 1: need new leadership. I don't care where it comes from. 438 00:25:22,600 --> 00:25:25,439 Speaker 1: My only concern right now is recalled de Leone and 439 00:25:25,600 --> 00:25:28,440 Speaker 1: whoever wants to run to take over that position. They're 440 00:25:28,480 --> 00:25:31,040 Speaker 1: more than welcome to it's a free country. But we 441 00:25:31,119 --> 00:25:33,199 Speaker 1: need to get rid of Kevin de Leone. Kevin must go, 442 00:25:33,560 --> 00:25:35,960 Speaker 1: Kevin must resign, and if he doesn't resign, as a 443 00:25:36,040 --> 00:25:40,080 Speaker 1: latch last ditch effort, as a final resort, we have 444 00:25:40,160 --> 00:25:44,040 Speaker 1: to focus on removing Kevin de Leone and getting those signatures. 445 00:25:44,080 --> 00:25:47,520 Speaker 1: So anyone who's listening, please go to the website and 446 00:25:47,720 --> 00:25:50,199 Speaker 1: hopefully you guys will put the website on yours or 447 00:25:50,200 --> 00:25:55,080 Speaker 1: a link on your site. Yeah, just because we need volunteers, 448 00:25:55,080 --> 00:25:57,879 Speaker 1: we need money. We also need people boots on the 449 00:25:57,920 --> 00:26:00,320 Speaker 1: ground to go door to door to collect the signals. 450 00:26:00,640 --> 00:26:03,840 Speaker 1: And again, this is a final last ditch effort, the 451 00:26:04,240 --> 00:26:08,040 Speaker 1: line in the sand, and we just need to get 452 00:26:08,119 --> 00:26:10,560 Speaker 1: rid of Kevin de Leone. He's just not effective as 453 00:26:10,600 --> 00:26:12,880 Speaker 1: a leader. And if there was a vote, how long 454 00:26:12,920 --> 00:26:16,199 Speaker 1: from now would it be? You say the signatures are 455 00:26:16,240 --> 00:26:19,600 Speaker 1: due by March thirty first, so I would only assume 456 00:26:19,680 --> 00:26:22,760 Speaker 1: the soonest they could do that is maybe June, If 457 00:26:22,840 --> 00:26:25,919 Speaker 1: not June, maybe November. So we're hopefully we'll get the 458 00:26:25,960 --> 00:26:30,640 Speaker 1: signatures required and any other information would have to come 459 00:26:30,640 --> 00:26:34,200 Speaker 1: down the line. We don't know what's going to happen, 460 00:26:34,320 --> 00:26:37,480 Speaker 1: but we are definitely passionate about this issue. We definitely 461 00:26:37,480 --> 00:26:41,399 Speaker 1: want to get new leadership, and again, Kevin de Leone 462 00:26:41,480 --> 00:26:45,040 Speaker 1: must go. All right, recall KDL dot org. Goscar, thanks 463 00:26:45,040 --> 00:26:47,880 Speaker 1: for coming on. I appreciate all your help and it's 464 00:26:47,960 --> 00:26:50,159 Speaker 1: nice seeing you guys again. Hopefully we'll meet later in 465 00:26:50,160 --> 00:26:53,760 Speaker 1: the year to talk about this issue again. Okay, absolutely, 466 00:26:53,760 --> 00:26:55,240 Speaker 1: we'll keep an eye on it. We'll put a link 467 00:26:55,320 --> 00:26:57,959 Speaker 1: up on the web page. Boyle Heights down to La 468 00:26:58,080 --> 00:27:01,240 Speaker 1: Eagle Rock, Lincoln Heights, these or some of the neighborhoods 469 00:27:01,359 --> 00:27:05,520 Speaker 1: in Kevin de Leone's fourteenth District council seat that has 470 00:27:05,520 --> 00:27:09,040 Speaker 1: recalled KDL dot org. More coming up, John and Ken 471 00:27:09,119 --> 00:27:11,720 Speaker 1: kf I am six forty live everywhere the iHeartRadio app 472 00:27:11,760 --> 00:27:14,919 Speaker 1: but talking border. After four o'clock Mark Krikorian will be 473 00:27:14,960 --> 00:27:18,000 Speaker 1: here the Center for Immigration Studies, And of course the 474 00:27:18,040 --> 00:27:20,480 Speaker 1: story is finally getting some attention from a lot of 475 00:27:20,520 --> 00:27:24,119 Speaker 1: the media. Title forty two is about to end. It 476 00:27:24,240 --> 00:27:26,840 Speaker 1: was a way to keep people from claiming asylum, turning 477 00:27:26,840 --> 00:27:30,879 Speaker 1: many back because of COVID nineteen, but it appears in 478 00:27:31,000 --> 00:27:33,440 Speaker 1: less than a week it is going to end, and 479 00:27:33,600 --> 00:27:36,159 Speaker 1: that is already leading to a rush at the border 480 00:27:36,240 --> 00:27:40,360 Speaker 1: numbers that nobody has really seen ever. So we'll talk 481 00:27:40,400 --> 00:27:43,800 Speaker 1: to Mark about it, who maybe can explain how. And 482 00:27:43,920 --> 00:27:46,160 Speaker 1: he actually wrote an editorial this is what they want 483 00:27:46,200 --> 00:27:48,919 Speaker 1: to happen Biden and his supporters. So we'll get to 484 00:27:49,000 --> 00:27:52,919 Speaker 1: that after four o'clock. We're just talking about the recall 485 00:27:52,920 --> 00:27:56,440 Speaker 1: effort against Kevin de Leone. I noticed John, if we're 486 00:27:56,440 --> 00:27:59,320 Speaker 1: supporting the recall. This is one of those rare times 487 00:27:59,320 --> 00:28:03,880 Speaker 1: that the Segundo Times is with us in editorial. Even 488 00:28:03,880 --> 00:28:06,159 Speaker 1: though they were against the recall efforts against George Gascon 489 00:28:06,280 --> 00:28:09,919 Speaker 1: and Newsom, they support the Deleone except they promoted this 490 00:28:10,080 --> 00:28:14,359 Speaker 1: clown for all these years, all these all these people 491 00:28:14,440 --> 00:28:17,400 Speaker 1: that they have ended up denouncing in recent times, they 492 00:28:17,520 --> 00:28:21,200 Speaker 1: repeatedly over and over get endorsed and gave all kinds 493 00:28:21,240 --> 00:28:26,959 Speaker 1: of knob slobbering, tongue bath articles promoting their They're terrible deeds. 494 00:28:27,359 --> 00:28:30,360 Speaker 1: They do point out of their editorial something rather funny. 495 00:28:30,400 --> 00:28:34,000 Speaker 1: If he does have to campaign against the recall, he'll 496 00:28:34,040 --> 00:28:36,919 Speaker 1: have to hire a people like a consultant and a team, 497 00:28:37,320 --> 00:28:40,000 Speaker 1: and he'll have to raise money. Although he could tap 498 00:28:40,440 --> 00:28:44,000 Speaker 1: the three point one million dollars in his daily one 499 00:28:44,120 --> 00:28:47,600 Speaker 1: for the Lieutenant Governor twenty twenty six campaign fund. I 500 00:28:47,600 --> 00:28:51,440 Speaker 1: didn't even that's where he thinks he was gonna go 501 00:28:51,520 --> 00:28:54,560 Speaker 1: next after city council, Yes, and after that he'd become governor. 502 00:28:54,920 --> 00:28:57,640 Speaker 1: In his mind, it was just like Newsom, did they 503 00:28:57,960 --> 00:29:02,040 Speaker 1: like Garcetti wanted to be said he wanted to be senator, 504 00:29:02,160 --> 00:29:06,120 Speaker 1: governor and those president wants to be president. Yes, but 505 00:29:06,280 --> 00:29:09,160 Speaker 1: well you can get there via governor obviously, but those 506 00:29:09,200 --> 00:29:12,120 Speaker 1: pathways here in California were blocked. So that's why he 507 00:29:12,200 --> 00:29:15,000 Speaker 1: jumped to the president president idea because he couldn't move 508 00:29:15,000 --> 00:29:19,120 Speaker 1: people out of the way. And now on the homeless front, 509 00:29:19,760 --> 00:29:23,520 Speaker 1: the announcement today from Mayor Karen Bass, five days after 510 00:29:23,520 --> 00:29:26,680 Speaker 1: she announced the state of emergency, was an executive order. 511 00:29:27,680 --> 00:29:31,240 Speaker 1: An executive order, well have her work. We have about 512 00:29:31,240 --> 00:29:35,400 Speaker 1: a miniative audio where she explains her executive orders today 513 00:29:35,520 --> 00:29:38,880 Speaker 1: she issued. Well, first of all, what's right at hand 514 00:29:39,040 --> 00:29:41,200 Speaker 1: are all of the projects that are in the works 515 00:29:41,400 --> 00:29:44,520 Speaker 1: right now, and this executive director we have we have 516 00:29:44,600 --> 00:29:47,960 Speaker 1: a list of over twenty four projects that can move quicker. 517 00:29:48,440 --> 00:29:51,600 Speaker 1: I think the question of building housing throughout the city 518 00:29:51,960 --> 00:29:54,720 Speaker 1: is a bigger question that I am hoping is taking 519 00:29:54,760 --> 00:29:58,320 Speaker 1: place in neighborhoods around the city. And then the very 520 00:29:58,400 --> 00:30:02,040 Speaker 1: best way to deal, to me with nimbiism is for 521 00:30:02,720 --> 00:30:05,920 Speaker 1: neighbors to get together and decide where they think the 522 00:30:05,960 --> 00:30:08,360 Speaker 1: housing should be. And I certainly learned over the last 523 00:30:08,440 --> 00:30:12,720 Speaker 1: year that there were neighborhoods that were adamantly resistant to 524 00:30:12,760 --> 00:30:15,920 Speaker 1: one thing, mind, but they had other proposals to present. 525 00:30:16,240 --> 00:30:18,280 Speaker 1: And I think that I don't have that way that 526 00:30:18,360 --> 00:30:22,160 Speaker 1: it should work, not forcing something on someone, but getting 527 00:30:22,200 --> 00:30:25,440 Speaker 1: neighborhoods together to say we want don't like this, but 528 00:30:25,520 --> 00:30:28,160 Speaker 1: this is where we have skin in the game, because 529 00:30:28,160 --> 00:30:31,480 Speaker 1: the bottom line is none of all this housing in 530 00:30:31,600 --> 00:30:35,280 Speaker 1: South La East, La Pico Union or the East Valley. 531 00:30:35,520 --> 00:30:38,720 Speaker 1: Those are areas that already are overcrowded with two and 532 00:30:38,800 --> 00:30:41,920 Speaker 1: three families. Well, then they have to fight. Yeah, she 533 00:30:42,000 --> 00:30:44,600 Speaker 1: made this comment, I think even before the election that 534 00:30:44,680 --> 00:30:46,520 Speaker 1: every council district is going to have to take on 535 00:30:46,520 --> 00:30:48,240 Speaker 1: some of these homelessness. No, you know what, and that 536 00:30:48,440 --> 00:30:51,959 Speaker 1: that's what's what's ridiculous about this. No neighborhood has to 537 00:30:52,000 --> 00:30:55,760 Speaker 1: take in vagrants from all over the country, especially ones 538 00:30:56,000 --> 00:31:00,400 Speaker 1: who have drug problems and mental illness. That's not our problem. 539 00:31:00,920 --> 00:31:03,200 Speaker 1: Send him back to the mommies and daddies that threw 540 00:31:03,200 --> 00:31:06,360 Speaker 1: them out of the house, who probably in a lot 541 00:31:06,400 --> 00:31:11,520 Speaker 1: of cases abused these people and traumatize them. That's not 542 00:31:11,640 --> 00:31:14,120 Speaker 1: on my front law, and get out of here. What 543 00:31:14,120 --> 00:31:16,520 Speaker 1: we're gonna do is we're gonna start checking out her 544 00:31:16,520 --> 00:31:19,120 Speaker 1: schedule on a daily basis and see what she's doing 545 00:31:19,680 --> 00:31:22,920 Speaker 1: on this state of emergency over homelessness in the coming weeks. 546 00:31:23,240 --> 00:31:27,000 Speaker 1: Will probably skip the Christmas holiday period coming up here, 547 00:31:27,040 --> 00:31:29,560 Speaker 1: and begin that in January. All right, Coming up next, 548 00:31:29,600 --> 00:31:31,800 Speaker 1: Mark McCoy and will be our guest Executive director of 549 00:31:31,880 --> 00:31:34,120 Speaker 1: the Center for Immigration Studies. A topic of course is 550 00:31:34,160 --> 00:31:36,840 Speaker 1: the crush at the border the end of title forty 551 00:31:36,920 --> 00:31:40,600 Speaker 1: two and how come Joe Biden says there are more 552 00:31:40,600 --> 00:31:43,400 Speaker 1: important things going on John and Ken kf I am 553 00:31:43,440 --> 00:31:46,680 Speaker 1: six forty Live Everywhere, the iHeartRadio app and Deborah Mark 554 00:31:46,760 --> 00:31:48,520 Speaker 1: Live than twenty four hour Calfineers Room
