9
00:00:25,520 --> 00:00:27,000
Speaker 2: that's exciting news for you. What are you going to

10
00:00:27,040 --> 00:00:27,479
Speaker 2: do with it?

11
00:00:27,640 --> 00:00:29,680
Speaker 1: But there's no advantage to knowing early.

12
00:00:30,680 --> 00:00:34,839
Speaker 2: That's right, you get right when we start to give

13
00:00:34,880 --> 00:00:38,120
Speaker 2: out the information does the contest begin, So there's no

14
00:00:38,240 --> 00:00:41,560
Speaker 2: point giving out the word early. Uh. Also, in one hour,

15
00:00:41,640 --> 00:00:44,480
Speaker 2: we're gonna have Rebecca Peterson back on the show. That's

16
00:00:44,520 --> 00:00:47,000
Speaker 2: the woman that was knocked down by a vagrant who

17
00:00:47,000 --> 00:00:50,640
Speaker 2: wanted to sexually assault her in Long Beach a couple

18
00:00:50,720 --> 00:00:52,600
Speaker 2: of weeks ago. And the follow up story is at

19
00:00:52,640 --> 00:00:56,360
Speaker 2: the La County District Attorney, George Gascone decided that's just

20
00:00:56,400 --> 00:01:00,960
Speaker 2: a misdemeanor. What the guy did unbelievable even the Long

21
00:01:01,000 --> 00:01:04,080
Speaker 2: beat City Attorney's office, and they can't file felonies. Is

22
00:01:04,120 --> 00:01:07,760
Speaker 2: recommending strongly that this is a felony sex. So this

23
00:01:07,800 --> 00:01:10,960
Speaker 2: is an attempted rape and she got lucky. It was

24
00:01:11,040 --> 00:01:13,000
Speaker 2: daytime and there was a guy nearby, and the vagrant

25
00:01:13,080 --> 00:01:16,920
Speaker 2: ran off. Because it's a crazy person anyway, But anyway,

26
00:01:17,040 --> 00:01:20,840
Speaker 2: the La County DA's office said they would reconsider their

27
00:01:20,959 --> 00:01:24,080
Speaker 2: decision and see if there's something new to talk about

28
00:01:24,120 --> 00:01:24,640
Speaker 2: in an hour.

29
00:01:25,920 --> 00:01:29,160
Speaker 1: Yeah, because they haven't announced that they're going to press

30
00:01:29,240 --> 00:01:37,720
Speaker 1: the felony charges yet, right who gascum No, no, no, no, no. Oh.

31
00:01:37,760 --> 00:01:40,280
Speaker 2: They announced that they were going to do a misdemeanor

32
00:01:40,520 --> 00:01:43,000
Speaker 2: and then they issued a statement that they're reconsidering.

33
00:01:43,319 --> 00:01:45,480
Speaker 1: Okay, I don't have any information that they've switched to

34
00:01:45,520 --> 00:01:47,039
Speaker 1: a fella. How much yet? How much do you have

35
00:01:47,080 --> 00:01:49,840
Speaker 1: to reconsider? Is there anybody who looks at that and

36
00:01:49,880 --> 00:01:54,040
Speaker 1: doesn't say, wow, that's an attempted rape. Anybody isn't it

37
00:01:54,080 --> 00:01:56,480
Speaker 1: like one hundred percent of the people watching what say hey,

38
00:01:56,520 --> 00:01:59,000
Speaker 1: that's a felony. I looked at a different video from

39
00:01:59,040 --> 00:02:01,240
Speaker 1: the front where you see her walking towards the camera.

40
00:02:01,280 --> 00:02:03,040
Speaker 1: There's a couple of video versions because this is a

41
00:02:03,120 --> 00:02:06,160
Speaker 1: sidewalk and there's all sorts of surveillance cameras. We've all

42
00:02:06,160 --> 00:02:08,079
Speaker 1: seen the video from behind where he comes up behind

43
00:02:08,120 --> 00:02:10,200
Speaker 1: and then eventually knocks her down. And this one in

44
00:02:10,280 --> 00:02:12,320
Speaker 1: front and you can see him just walking along like

45
00:02:12,360 --> 00:02:17,120
Speaker 1: this sick, go crazed monster. Yeah. Why, what I'm saying

46
00:02:17,120 --> 00:02:20,200
Speaker 1: is why is everything just everyone's hand rigging over everything?

47
00:02:20,280 --> 00:02:20,480
Speaker 3: Right?

48
00:02:20,720 --> 00:02:23,040
Speaker 1: Last time we had the story of the weirdo masturbating

49
00:02:23,040 --> 00:02:25,640
Speaker 1: in his car looking at kids at the school. Oh,

50
00:02:25,720 --> 00:02:27,600
Speaker 1: you know, what should we do about him? What should

51
00:02:27,639 --> 00:02:30,919
Speaker 1: we do? It's like you know what to do? It's

52
00:02:30,919 --> 00:02:34,440
Speaker 1: same thing here. Oh wow, what happened here? I mean

53
00:02:34,480 --> 00:02:37,160
Speaker 1: a guy tackled, he had no pants, lifted up her dress,

54
00:02:37,240 --> 00:02:40,120
Speaker 1: his stuff was out. What was it? You know what

55
00:02:40,200 --> 00:02:43,280
Speaker 1: it is? It was an attempted rape, present felony. What

56
00:02:43,320 --> 00:02:47,359
Speaker 1: are we debating here? There's no other side to these issues. Yeah,

57
00:02:47,400 --> 00:02:49,360
Speaker 1: the guy in nor work's a pedophile and this guy's

58
00:02:49,400 --> 00:02:55,560
Speaker 1: an attempted rapist. End of debate. Behead of them that too.

59
00:02:56,080 --> 00:02:58,120
Speaker 1: You need to take your show to Saudi Arabia. You'd

60
00:02:58,120 --> 00:02:59,000
Speaker 1: get a big audience.

61
00:02:59,520 --> 00:02:59,639
Speaker 2: You know.

62
00:03:01,280 --> 00:03:04,280
Speaker 1: That is a much better way. The way they deal

63
00:03:04,320 --> 00:03:07,920
Speaker 1: with criminals, far superior than what we're doing here.

64
00:03:10,160 --> 00:03:13,240
Speaker 2: We now move to the situation between Israel and Hamas,

65
00:03:13,280 --> 00:03:16,680
Speaker 2: so of course the war. One story that popped up

66
00:03:16,680 --> 00:03:21,560
Speaker 2: today is two dozen top US law firms have sent

67
00:03:21,639 --> 00:03:25,080
Speaker 2: out a stern warning that law schools better move with

68
00:03:25,240 --> 00:03:29,760
Speaker 2: urgency to address the rising anti semitism on their campuses,

69
00:03:30,240 --> 00:03:33,360
Speaker 2: or they might not see much recruitment from these law

70
00:03:33,360 --> 00:03:36,680
Speaker 2: firms of their graduates. Over the last several weeks, we've

71
00:03:36,720 --> 00:03:40,480
Speaker 2: been alarmed at reports of anti Semitic harassment, vandalism, and

72
00:03:40,480 --> 00:03:44,760
Speaker 2: assaults on college campuses, including rallies calling for the death

73
00:03:44,760 --> 00:03:47,040
Speaker 2: of Jews and the elimination of the state of Israel.

74
00:03:47,480 --> 00:03:51,240
Speaker 2: Such anti Semitic activities would not be tolerated at any

75
00:03:51,520 --> 00:03:55,840
Speaker 2: of our firms. And it says, you are the educators

76
00:03:55,840 --> 00:03:58,400
Speaker 2: of higher learning. You have to provide your students with

77
00:03:58,440 --> 00:04:00,960
Speaker 2: the tools and guidance to engage in the free exchange

78
00:04:01,000 --> 00:04:01,640
Speaker 2: of ideas.

79
00:04:02,280 --> 00:04:07,080
Speaker 1: Isn't shocking when adults act like adults and right like adults.

80
00:04:07,680 --> 00:04:08,560
Speaker 1: Isn't it amazing?

81
00:04:09,440 --> 00:04:09,520
Speaker 2: No?

82
00:04:10,880 --> 00:04:14,960
Speaker 1: Of course, of course you don't want somebody who's screaming

83
00:04:15,320 --> 00:04:19,440
Speaker 1: in favor of Hamas, who's just butchered thousands of people

84
00:04:19,440 --> 00:04:22,719
Speaker 1: and beheaded babies. Of course you don't want that pumas

85
00:04:22,880 --> 00:04:28,000
Speaker 1: cheerleader working in your office, especially since you're going to

86
00:04:28,040 --> 00:04:35,520
Speaker 1: have very likely Jewish employees in the office. Now, this

87
00:04:35,680 --> 00:04:39,680
Speaker 1: is actually controversial. This is another one. Really, this is

88
00:04:39,720 --> 00:04:44,320
Speaker 1: a debate. Wow. I mean, you as colleges are big

89
00:04:44,360 --> 00:04:47,280
Speaker 1: believers in free speech. Oh, you have the right to

90
00:04:47,320 --> 00:04:49,960
Speaker 1: free speech. All that means is the government can't come

91
00:04:50,240 --> 00:04:54,279
Speaker 1: and take away your punish you for free speech. Although

92
00:04:54,400 --> 00:04:56,359
Speaker 1: free speech is not an absolute right as we know,

93
00:04:56,880 --> 00:04:59,520
Speaker 1: but even in this situation, yeah you got free speech,

94
00:04:59,560 --> 00:05:02,599
Speaker 1: go ahead. But I'm running a law firm. I don't

95
00:05:02,640 --> 00:05:06,960
Speaker 1: want a terrorist supporter, a baby butcher supporter to be

96
00:05:07,040 --> 00:05:10,000
Speaker 1: on the staff. What's the upside of that? First of all,

97
00:05:10,560 --> 00:05:13,719
Speaker 1: I know he or she is crazy. Second of all,

98
00:05:13,839 --> 00:05:16,200
Speaker 1: it's going to upset a lot of normal people working

99
00:05:16,200 --> 00:05:20,839
Speaker 1: in the office here, and you know, and that that

100
00:05:20,880 --> 00:05:23,680
Speaker 1: person's behavior is now on the internet forever. This is

101
00:05:23,880 --> 00:05:25,000
Speaker 1: another one. That's what I'm saying.

102
00:05:25,000 --> 00:05:27,280
Speaker 2: That's what college, That's what these companies will do. They'll

103
00:05:27,279 --> 00:05:29,560
Speaker 2: be looking at what you. I mean, with the rise

104
00:05:29,600 --> 00:05:33,440
Speaker 2: of social media and everybody now has a platform, people

105
00:05:33,440 --> 00:05:35,160
Speaker 2: that might hire you're gonna be looking at that stuff.

106
00:05:35,800 --> 00:05:37,560
Speaker 1: And they're going to be judging you on it.

107
00:05:37,600 --> 00:05:39,760
Speaker 2: So you got to start thinking about what you're posting

108
00:05:40,040 --> 00:05:41,520
Speaker 2: and what you're screening in videos.

109
00:05:42,480 --> 00:05:44,560
Speaker 1: I know from my son when he was applying to

110
00:05:44,600 --> 00:05:47,919
Speaker 1: colleges to play baseball, word got around. In fact, I

111
00:05:47,920 --> 00:05:50,919
Speaker 1: went to some of these showcases where the instructor said,

112
00:05:51,800 --> 00:05:56,240
Speaker 1: get all the nonsense off your social media site because

113
00:05:56,320 --> 00:06:00,080
Speaker 1: coaches for real Division I teams do not want to

114
00:06:00,160 --> 00:06:02,960
Speaker 1: see you standing with one of those stupid red solo cups,

115
00:06:03,480 --> 00:06:06,679
Speaker 1: you know, half naked at a party. Get that off,

116
00:06:06,839 --> 00:06:10,040
Speaker 1: or you're not getting you're not getting an invitation. You

117
00:06:10,040 --> 00:06:13,240
Speaker 1: wouldn't be taken. Seriously, You're not you're not getting a scholarship.

118
00:06:13,279 --> 00:06:15,159
Speaker 1: You're not going to be recruited to be on the team.

119
00:06:15,279 --> 00:06:17,400
Speaker 1: Nobody wants to put up with that. You got to

120
00:06:17,400 --> 00:06:19,640
Speaker 1: start acting like an adult. Here. You're eighteen, now you're

121
00:06:19,640 --> 00:06:21,760
Speaker 1: going to college. You do what you want in your

122
00:06:21,760 --> 00:06:23,960
Speaker 1: own time. But if this is how you're advertising yourself,

123
00:06:23,960 --> 00:06:27,240
Speaker 1: we don't want you. I know people that would change

124
00:06:27,240 --> 00:06:29,520
Speaker 1: their names on social media so they wouldn't be found

125
00:06:29,560 --> 00:06:33,479
Speaker 1: by recruiters or colleges or and all that type of stuff.

126
00:06:33,839 --> 00:06:35,160
Speaker 1: Oh I do too. Then how people?

127
00:06:35,279 --> 00:06:36,960
Speaker 2: Then? How do people know it's you, so they can

128
00:06:37,120 --> 00:06:38,760
Speaker 2: be exact your opinions exactly.

129
00:06:40,360 --> 00:06:42,000
Speaker 1: But no, I know a kid he had, yeah, he

130
00:06:42,080 --> 00:06:44,320
Speaker 1: had he had two at the time, it was two

131
00:06:44,360 --> 00:06:52,279
Speaker 1: Facebook pages. And it's just this is this is uncivilized,

132
00:06:52,640 --> 00:06:56,520
Speaker 1: absurd behavior. This is the culmination of all the progressive

133
00:06:56,600 --> 00:07:00,760
Speaker 1: garbage that's fed into these students' heads. And now finally

134
00:07:00,839 --> 00:07:04,560
Speaker 1: they're going to run into They're going to run into consequences. Yeah,

135
00:07:04,600 --> 00:07:08,240
Speaker 1: you can't do this, or you can. But you know

136
00:07:08,360 --> 00:07:12,120
Speaker 1: you're not getting a job because I mean, there's a

00:07:26,240 --> 00:07:28,880
Speaker 1: recognize the names. They're top law firms, but they're not

Speaker 1: more news Israel Hamas, Joe Biden weighing in on the

148
00:07:41,680 --> 00:07:45,360
Speaker 1: need for a pause. Also more evidence that some of

149
00:07:45,400 --> 00:07:48,400
Speaker 1: the Hamas terrorist fighters may have been on a certain

150
00:07:48,520 --> 00:07:53,000
Speaker 1: drug which made them really wild. Johnny Ken Show kf

154
00:08:09,800 --> 00:08:13,240

Speaker 2: usually does, and I guess he was talking about Israel

156
00:08:15,800 --> 00:08:21,040
Speaker 2: Hamas and a rabbi jumped up, named Jessica Rosenberg, and

157
00:08:21,080 --> 00:08:23,360
Speaker 2: she said, mister President, you care about Jewish people.

158
00:08:23,360 --> 00:08:24,680
Speaker 1: As a rabbi, I need you to call for a

159
00:08:24,720 --> 00:08:31,520
Speaker 1: ceasefire right now. So Biden said the following oh.

160
00:08:31,600 --> 00:08:33,000
Speaker 2: Then she yelled out again, I would love for you

161
00:08:33,080 --> 00:08:36,719
Speaker 2: to answer my question. And then Biden said that we

162
00:08:36,800 --> 00:08:39,880
Speaker 2: probably do need a pause. Well, a White House official

163
00:08:39,960 --> 00:08:42,400
Speaker 2: later said, well, he's not making new policy with that announcement,

164
00:08:42,400 --> 00:08:45,880
Speaker 2: please everyone, because of course the media covers every step

165
00:08:45,880 --> 00:08:47,000
Speaker 2: in right Biden takes.

166
00:08:47,440 --> 00:08:50,640
Speaker 1: He used the word pause. What does that made ceasefire?

167
00:08:51,240 --> 00:08:53,479
Speaker 2: What is he calling for a s They had to clarify,

168
00:08:54,080 --> 00:08:56,400
Speaker 2: but he's emphasizing his belief that to aid in the

169
00:08:56,440 --> 00:09:00,959
Speaker 2: release of additional hostages, a temporary sees fire or pause

170
00:09:01,040 --> 00:09:04,800
Speaker 2: would be necessary. So it depends on your definition of ceasefire.

171
00:09:05,160 --> 00:09:07,440
Speaker 2: But now we have a temporary ceasefire called a pause.

172
00:09:07,679 --> 00:09:11,920
Speaker 2: So it's not like an hour he may?

173
00:09:12,040 --> 00:09:13,960
Speaker 1: What is a pause? Is it a week? An hour?

174
00:09:14,240 --> 00:09:17,040
Speaker 1: A day? Is he may? He may not have remembered

175
00:09:17,080 --> 00:09:20,240
Speaker 1: what his policy was. I know, yes, you know, because

176
00:09:20,920 --> 00:09:22,520
Speaker 1: there there was there was a couple of days where

177
00:09:22,520 --> 00:09:24,200
Speaker 1: they were talking about a pause because they were trying

178
00:09:24,200 --> 00:09:28,120
Speaker 1: to get out more hostages. And then eventually eventually Israel

179
00:09:28,160 --> 00:09:30,320
Speaker 1: said well enough of this, and they went in and started,

180
00:09:30,360 --> 00:09:33,120
Speaker 1: you know, destroying the place. And so maybe he was

181
00:09:33,120 --> 00:09:37,040
Speaker 1: trying to remember where are we in the store? What

182
00:09:37,160 --> 00:09:40,000
Speaker 1: was the last thing? I said? Very possible. The good

183
00:09:40,000 --> 00:09:41,960
Speaker 1: thing is well I mumble a lot, so you can't

184
00:09:41,960 --> 00:09:44,280
Speaker 1: really tell what I said. Uh.

185
00:09:44,400 --> 00:09:47,240
Speaker 2: The official at the White House, and they're not named here,

186
00:09:47,280 --> 00:09:49,760
Speaker 2: just a White House official, according to NBC News, said

187
00:09:49,760 --> 00:09:52,280
Speaker 2: Biden was referring to his urging the Israeli Prime Minister

188
00:09:52,400 --> 00:09:55,600
Speaker 2: to temporarily halt the assault in part of Goza to

189
00:09:55,640 --> 00:09:58,800
Speaker 2: allow some American Israeli hostages to get sure out.

190
00:09:59,640 --> 00:10:02,280
Speaker 1: Then why doesn't he say that? How come the aides

191
00:10:02,320 --> 00:10:06,480
Speaker 1: always have like a long winded, detailed, nuanced answer and

192
00:10:06,679 --> 00:10:10,280
Speaker 1: Biden just blurts out three words that are the opposite

193
00:10:10,280 --> 00:10:11,319
Speaker 1: of the last thing he said.

194
00:10:11,640 --> 00:10:14,040
Speaker 2: I don't think anybody I ever tried to clarify what

195
00:10:14,080 --> 00:10:16,760
Speaker 2: Trump said. It's just his own blatherings, and we just

196
00:10:16,800 --> 00:10:18,000
Speaker 2: let it sits what it was.

197
00:10:20,440 --> 00:10:23,840
Speaker 1: Another thing about this, and there's there's a headline that

198
00:10:24,040 --> 00:10:28,560
Speaker 1: the Democrats are afraid that the Biden's war stance could

199
00:10:28,559 --> 00:10:33,040
Speaker 1: cost him reelection in Michigan. Michigan has so many Arab

200
00:10:33,120 --> 00:10:35,480
Speaker 1: Muslims living there now. I mean that is the home

201
00:10:35,520 --> 00:10:39,400
Speaker 1: base of Rashida Talib, who says the most congress woman

202
00:10:39,440 --> 00:10:40,319
Speaker 1: that's been outspoken.

203
00:10:40,440 --> 00:10:43,040
Speaker 2: Right, Oh yeah, did you finally believe that Israel didn't

204
00:10:43,040 --> 00:10:43,800
Speaker 2: blow up the hospital?

205
00:10:43,840 --> 00:10:46,120
Speaker 1: Or is she still love? I read a long story

206
00:10:46,160 --> 00:10:49,640
Speaker 1: about her background. She's she's a full blown for the terrorists,

207
00:10:49,840 --> 00:10:52,439
Speaker 1: has been all her life. Okay, there's no nuance here.

208
00:10:52,520 --> 00:10:56,600
Speaker 1: She's on the terrorist's side. And the thing is she

209
00:10:56,760 --> 00:11:01,840
Speaker 1: gets elected every time she runs. That's what her constituency

210
00:11:01,880 --> 00:11:04,160
Speaker 1: wants to hear. That's what some of about good Chunck

211
00:11:04,200 --> 00:11:07,800
Speaker 1: of her constituency believes and if Biden is talking about

212
00:11:08,000 --> 00:11:11,440
Speaker 1: somehow appeasing Israel, uh huh, they're not voting for Biden.

213
00:11:12,040 --> 00:11:13,720
Speaker 1: And then you know, all you got to lose is

214
00:11:13,760 --> 00:11:16,800
Speaker 1: you know, a few percentage points Michigan was closed to the

215
00:11:16,880 --> 00:11:19,360
Speaker 1: last two times, and you know, by by Michigan, that's

216
00:11:19,360 --> 00:11:22,080
Speaker 1: going to go into the Trump column. So that's what

217
00:11:22,160 --> 00:11:27,400
Speaker 1: that's also what he's doing. Fascinating that somebody divides, you know,

218
00:11:27,440 --> 00:11:29,880
Speaker 1: in Washington, d C. But right now we do.

219
00:11:29,880 --> 00:11:33,160
Speaker 2: We have Democrats who are unhappy, a number of them

220
00:11:33,160 --> 00:11:35,240
Speaker 2: with too much support for Israel, and we have Republicans

221
00:11:35,640 --> 00:11:38,240
Speaker 2: that don't want any more money going to Ukraine's kind

222
00:11:38,240 --> 00:11:39,240
Speaker 2: of what's happening right now.

223
00:11:39,640 --> 00:11:43,439
Speaker 1: It's diversity. See, the Democrats are stuck because they court

224
00:11:43,440 --> 00:11:46,240
Speaker 1: the Jewish vote and they've courted the Buslim vote, and

225
00:11:46,280 --> 00:11:49,840
Speaker 1: that's incompatible right now. And remember the root word for

226
00:11:49,880 --> 00:11:54,600
Speaker 1: diversity is division. Diversity doesn't bring us together. Diversity by

227
00:11:54,640 --> 00:11:57,440
Speaker 1: its nature, by its definition, pushes us apart.

228
00:11:57,880 --> 00:11:59,720
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, diversity means you have many people of many

229
00:11:59,720 --> 00:12:02,600
Speaker 2: different kinds of opinions and races and everything.

230
00:12:02,320 --> 00:12:05,120
Speaker 1: Right right exactly, But that doesn't mean they like each other,

231
00:12:05,160 --> 00:12:06,840
Speaker 1: they're going to get along with each other. In fact,

232
00:12:06,880 --> 00:12:09,920
Speaker 1: it's going to create more. It makes us.

233
00:12:09,800 --> 00:12:13,280
Speaker 2: Stronger because we have lots of opinions.

234
00:12:12,800 --> 00:12:17,280
Speaker 1: And I haven't seen that. The chaos is really what's happening. Yeah,

235
00:12:17,440 --> 00:12:20,240
Speaker 1: more diversity, more chaos. But that's what they wanted. So

236
00:12:21,000 --> 00:12:22,240
Speaker 1: now now you've got to live with it.

237
00:12:22,600 --> 00:12:25,800
Speaker 2: There was increasing evidence that some of the Hamas fighters

238
00:12:25,960 --> 00:12:28,480
Speaker 2: that made their way into Israel for that attack on

239
00:12:28,520 --> 00:12:33,240
Speaker 2: October seventh may have been high on a synthetic stimulant

240
00:12:33,320 --> 00:12:37,400
Speaker 2: called capti God. Some call it the Djihati drug, Captain courage,

241
00:12:37,400 --> 00:12:39,319
Speaker 2: the poor Man's the poor man's cocaine.

242
00:12:40,080 --> 00:12:44,000
Speaker 1: Anyway, it's it's a myth like substance. Right.

243
00:12:44,679 --> 00:12:47,160
Speaker 2: It was found on several of THEMAS members who were

244
00:12:47,240 --> 00:12:52,040
Speaker 2: killed and several others that were taken captive that perhaps

245
00:12:52,559 --> 00:12:58,319
Speaker 2: they had taken this drug to make them feel fearless,

246
00:12:58,520 --> 00:13:01,960
Speaker 2: right sentiment to I've heard of it. That can make

247
00:13:02,000 --> 00:13:04,960
Speaker 2: you craze too, and that could explain some of the butchery.

248
00:13:05,600 --> 00:13:08,079
Speaker 1: Remember remember when there was all these weird drugs, and

249
00:13:08,120 --> 00:13:10,719
Speaker 1: there still are plenty of weird drugs going around, and

250
00:13:10,760 --> 00:13:13,679
Speaker 1: you see people acting like they've never acted before there

251
00:13:13,720 --> 00:13:16,200
Speaker 1: was that bath salt's craze in Florida for a while.

252
00:13:16,480 --> 00:13:19,920
Speaker 1: And there's a guy eating another man's face on a

253
00:13:19,960 --> 00:13:24,640
Speaker 1: bridge in Miami. Okay, the math salts. Yeah, that's right.

254
00:13:25,080 --> 00:13:27,240
Speaker 1: It's like, oh, why would he do it? That's not

255
00:13:27,320 --> 00:13:29,880
Speaker 1: a why would he do it? He's on some bizarre drug.

256
00:13:30,040 --> 00:13:32,520
Speaker 1: And look at look at what happens with the meth people.

257
00:13:32,960 --> 00:13:35,200
Speaker 1: Meth people, what do they do? They start overheating their

258
00:13:35,200 --> 00:13:38,000
Speaker 1: body overheats, they turn, tear off all their clothes, they

259
00:13:38,000 --> 00:13:40,439
Speaker 1: get violent, they grab a machete and they go running

260
00:13:40,480 --> 00:13:43,559
Speaker 1: naked down the street trying to kill people. Well, why

261
00:13:43,559 --> 00:13:45,600
Speaker 1: do they do that? It's because of the meth. Same

262
00:13:45,640 --> 00:13:48,440
Speaker 1: thing here, I mean the kid that remember where we

263
00:13:48,600 --> 00:13:51,000
Speaker 1: told the story of the kid who was really proud

264
00:13:51,040 --> 00:13:54,439
Speaker 1: that he killed the ten ten Jews in Israel and

265
00:13:54,440 --> 00:13:56,280
Speaker 1: then he calls up his mom and he's bragging to

266
00:13:56,320 --> 00:14:00,199
Speaker 1: his mom and dad, be so proud of your son. Look, look,

267
00:14:00,240 --> 00:14:02,760
Speaker 1: look look what I did. Of course he's on a drug,

268
00:14:04,360 --> 00:14:05,200
Speaker 1: of course he is.

269
00:14:06,240 --> 00:14:09,960
Speaker 2: Well, what they say about this particular drug is that

270
00:14:10,360 --> 00:14:13,760
Speaker 2: it's been a staple among Islamic state fighters in Iraq

271
00:14:13,840 --> 00:14:16,920
Speaker 2: and Syria because they believe it helps them stay awake,

272
00:14:17,000 --> 00:14:18,840
Speaker 2: it keeps them calm and focused, and they can go

273
00:14:18,880 --> 00:14:24,720
Speaker 2: without food for days. So eliminating fear and hunger, that's

274
00:14:24,720 --> 00:14:27,840
Speaker 2: important when you're in for a long fight, said the expert.

275
00:14:28,880 --> 00:14:33,360
Speaker 1: So this drug was mass produced in Syria and it

276
00:14:33,520 --> 00:14:37,520
Speaker 1: smuggled to the other Arab states, and it is such

277
00:14:37,680 --> 00:14:43,720
Speaker 1: a nasty drug that the Arab the Arab Nations, we

278
00:14:45,040 --> 00:14:48,360
Speaker 1: had a meeting to try to convince Syria to stop

279
00:14:48,400 --> 00:14:53,640
Speaker 1: producing this thing. It's addictive, it's like an amphetamine. And

280
00:14:54,360 --> 00:14:59,880
Speaker 1: the president of Syria, Bashar al Asad, was using capt

281
00:15:00,120 --> 00:15:04,720
Speaker 1: Gone as a bargaining chip because he wanted Syria reinstated

282
00:15:04,840 --> 00:15:09,280
Speaker 1: into the Arab League. He wanted the membership renewed, and

283
00:15:09,360 --> 00:15:12,160
Speaker 1: he said, if you don't let me back into the club,

284
00:15:12,480 --> 00:15:15,960
Speaker 1: then we're going to keep producing this captivon a captive God.

285
00:15:16,400 --> 00:15:17,880
Speaker 1: It looks like it came from the Germans.

286
00:15:18,040 --> 00:15:21,200
Speaker 2: Initially synthesized by a German chemistry from in nineteen sixty

287
00:15:21,240 --> 00:15:24,720
Speaker 2: one and used in Europe to treat hyperactivity disorders in children,

288
00:15:25,280 --> 00:15:28,400
Speaker 2: but eventually in the nineteen eighties, the US Controlled Substances

289
00:15:28,440 --> 00:15:34,400
Speaker 2: Act outlauded as a pharmaceutical product, phased it out, But

290
00:15:34,440 --> 00:15:37,160
Speaker 2: in twenty sixteen, the black market for it was soaring.

291
00:15:37,320 --> 00:15:40,440
Speaker 2: And you're right, in the Arabian Peninsula North Africa, it's

292
00:15:40,480 --> 00:15:41,320
Speaker 2: very easy to make.

293
00:15:41,840 --> 00:15:45,040
Speaker 1: Yeah, the old Nazis made a drug for the new Nazis.

294
00:15:45,560 --> 00:15:47,440
Speaker 1: They You're right.

295
00:15:47,480 --> 00:15:50,640
Speaker 2: Eighty percent of the world supply is now produced in Syria,

296
00:15:50,680 --> 00:15:54,040
Speaker 2: according to the British government. Sure in them a financial

297
00:15:54,080 --> 00:15:56,920
Speaker 2: lifeline for the regime of that horrible Syrian president.

298
00:15:58,600 --> 00:16:01,120
Speaker 1: Yeah. The Syrian president is a lot of money and

299
00:16:01,240 --> 00:16:06,200
Speaker 1: he's creating the chaos among all his Arab brother nations. Oh,

300
00:16:06,240 --> 00:16:08,160
Speaker 1: how long before this stuff gets here? We're already dealing

301
00:16:08,160 --> 00:16:12,320
Speaker 1: with fentanyl. I thought of that too. Caacter gone, Yeah,

302

Speaker 2: There's plenty of openings for tomorrow's play of the calls.

310
00:16:41,080 --> 00:16:43,680
Speaker 2: Use the iHeartRadio app or the toll free number is

311
00:16:43,720 --> 00:16:46,640
Speaker 2: one eight seven seven moist eighty six one eight seven,

312
00:16:46,720 --> 00:16:50,040
Speaker 2: seven six six four seven eight eighty six. A while ago,

313
00:16:50,480 --> 00:16:52,680
Speaker 2: one of the stories that Deborah Mark red like a

314
00:16:52,760 --> 00:16:56,800
Speaker 2: headline because this was a crazed topic. But not even

315
00:16:56,880 --> 00:17:00,000
Speaker 2: five years ago vaping. Apparently the vaping numbers are down

316
00:17:00,040 --> 00:17:02,800
Speaker 2: and significantly we don't hear much anymore about vaping. Remember

317
00:17:02,880 --> 00:17:04,720
Speaker 2: that was like the big evil for a while there,

318
00:17:04,760 --> 00:17:06,800
Speaker 2: and they were trying to talk all sorts of laws

319
00:17:06,840 --> 00:17:09,720
Speaker 2: and Sacramento to stop the vaping industry.

320
00:17:09,800 --> 00:17:12,520
Speaker 1: And they tried to. They tried and addict everybody and

321
00:17:12,600 --> 00:17:17,359
Speaker 1: that vaping is like smoking, which was like to be sad. Yeah,

322
00:17:17,960 --> 00:17:18,880
Speaker 1: kind of faded out.

323
00:17:19,640 --> 00:17:22,639
Speaker 2: Uh, well, we're going to return to the This is

324
00:17:22,680 --> 00:17:25,879
Speaker 2: an important topic when it comes to the homeless and

325
00:17:26,440 --> 00:17:30,880
Speaker 2: LA and they have this idea that they can construct

326
00:17:31,280 --> 00:17:35,040
Speaker 2: permanent supportive housing. And as example of that, we have

327
00:17:35,160 --> 00:17:38,000
Speaker 2: the skid Row Housing Trust. We've talked about them before.

328
00:17:38,560 --> 00:17:43,600
Speaker 2: This is downtown LA. It's twenty nine buildings and it's

329
00:17:43,680 --> 00:17:47,120
Speaker 2: known as the skid Row Housing Trust. That's where they

330
00:17:47,160 --> 00:17:51,240
Speaker 2: put the vagrants under the guise of permanent supportive housing.

331
00:17:51,240 --> 00:17:53,600
Speaker 2: In fact, the last time they opened one up, then

332
00:17:53,680 --> 00:17:55,840
Speaker 2: Mayor Garcetti how's he doing in India anyway?

333
00:17:55,840 --> 00:17:56,520
Speaker 1: Do we know anything?

334
00:17:57,359 --> 00:18:00,199
Speaker 2: He was dancing around celebrating it to acting like this

335
00:18:00,240 --> 00:18:03,080
Speaker 2: is the answer. Well, the last time we talked about

336
00:18:03,080 --> 00:18:05,080
Speaker 2: this story, of course, they were a bankruptcy. There's a

337
00:18:05,119 --> 00:18:09,159
Speaker 2: receivership situation, and twenty two of the twenty nine buildings

338
00:18:09,160 --> 00:18:10,159
Speaker 2: are dilapidated.

339
00:18:10,520 --> 00:18:14,800
Speaker 1: That's the word they're using. Oh they're lapidating, god, disgusting condition,

340
00:18:15,560 --> 00:18:19,800
Speaker 1: absolutely foul, filthy. Oh my god, you'd vomit if you

341
00:18:19,840 --> 00:18:22,919
Speaker 1: walked in to any of these buildings. Well, they're doubling down.

342
00:18:23,000 --> 00:18:25,639
Speaker 2: The Los Angeles City Council just approved another ten million

343
00:18:25,680 --> 00:18:27,200
Speaker 2: dollars to the receivership.

344
00:18:27,600 --> 00:18:30,560
Speaker 1: Ten million. Yeah, they're two million.

345
00:18:30,280 --> 00:18:33,160
Speaker 2: In early October, so that's another twelve million they're shoveling

346
00:18:33,160 --> 00:18:33,760
Speaker 2: out the door.

347
00:18:34,560 --> 00:18:37,960
Speaker 1: It wasn't it last year that they gave the receivership

348
00:18:38,000 --> 00:18:41,480
Speaker 1: contract to some guy and he did nothing. They were

349
00:18:41,480 --> 00:18:44,760
Speaker 1: removed with the money. Yeah, somewhere'd that money go? Who

350
00:18:44,840 --> 00:18:47,800
Speaker 1: ran off with that bag of money? It didn't worst friend,

351
00:18:47,960 --> 00:18:53,000
Speaker 1: was he? The buildings are being destroyed faster than they repaired. Okay, first,

352
00:18:53,400 --> 00:18:57,480
Speaker 1: who would take this job unless it's somebody who wanted

353
00:18:57,520 --> 00:19:00,399
Speaker 1: to run off with their own bag of money, and

354
00:19:00,440 --> 00:19:02,360
Speaker 1: it's going to be somebody connected to one of these

355
00:19:02,400 --> 00:19:06,919
Speaker 1: dirty politicians. So isn't this a setup where where the

356
00:19:06,960 --> 00:19:09,520
Speaker 1: dirty politicians are going to give a contract to some

357
00:19:09,800 --> 00:19:13,280
Speaker 1: dirty receiver and they're not going to improve anything, but

358
00:19:14,359 --> 00:19:17,280
Speaker 1: you know all involved will get rich. Right, how is it?

359
00:19:17,320 --> 00:19:19,440
Speaker 1: How's it going to go any other way? We already

360
00:19:19,480 --> 00:19:21,879
Speaker 1: saw this last year. They already spent millions of dollars

361
00:19:21,920 --> 00:19:24,520
Speaker 1: last year and all the all the all the buildings

362
00:19:24,520 --> 00:19:27,000
Speaker 1: got worse. Oh and I misspoke.

363
00:19:27,040 --> 00:19:29,240
Speaker 2: There were originally twenty nine buildings, and I said twenty

364
00:19:29,240 --> 00:19:32,000
Speaker 2: two were dilapidated. Well, the other seven that got removed

365
00:19:32,160 --> 00:19:34,800
Speaker 2: from the receivership. So all twenty two left in the

366
00:19:34,800 --> 00:19:38,040
Speaker 2: skid role of housing trust are dilapidated buildings. Just wanted

367
00:19:38,040 --> 00:19:40,159
Speaker 2: to be clear on that. The other seven were removed

368
00:19:40,160 --> 00:19:42,200
Speaker 2: by a court order and given to some other fund

369
00:19:42,600 --> 00:19:44,439
Speaker 2: to oversee that.

370
00:19:44,320 --> 00:19:45,040
Speaker 1: The truth is.

371
00:19:45,520 --> 00:19:49,440
Speaker 2: And let's get past all the corporate stuff here. Trusts

372
00:19:49,480 --> 00:19:54,560
Speaker 2: and receiverships. They let these buildings just go as they are,

373
00:19:54,600 --> 00:19:58,080
Speaker 2: so there's very there's like no security. People run wild

374
00:19:58,080 --> 00:20:01,560
Speaker 2: in there with drugs, this prostitution. I remember the last

375
00:20:01,560 --> 00:20:03,760
Speaker 2: time we talked about this. We read several first hand

376
00:20:03,760 --> 00:20:06,600
Speaker 2: accounts of what goes on, and the hall gangs take

377
00:20:06,600 --> 00:20:10,479
Speaker 2: over these buildings. There's just no oversight whatsoever. But they

378
00:20:10,560 --> 00:20:12,879
Speaker 2: just touted to the media as here's the answer to

379
00:20:12,920 --> 00:20:14,080
Speaker 2: permanent supportive housing.

380
00:20:14,240 --> 00:20:18,960
Speaker 1: It's not the dumbasses in the media. Just okay, thank

381
00:20:19,000 --> 00:20:22,360
Speaker 1: you for the quote. No, in all the buildings ought

382
00:20:22,400 --> 00:20:25,040
Speaker 1: to be bulldozed. Most of the people inside those buildings

383
00:20:25,040 --> 00:20:26,440
Speaker 1: ought to be put in a mental institution.

384
00:20:26,800 --> 00:20:29,560
Speaker 2: Well that's the important point, because this crowd that believes

385
00:20:29,560 --> 00:20:31,840
Speaker 2: in housing first thinks this is a simple answer, just

386
00:20:31,880 --> 00:20:33,960
Speaker 2: put them in a building. But no, they have so

387
00:20:34,040 --> 00:20:36,679
Speaker 2: many dysfunctions and problems that they tear the building apart.

388
00:20:37,320 --> 00:20:41,520
Speaker 1: They destroyed it. The rooms are destroyed too, and three

389
00:20:41,560 --> 00:20:44,480
Speaker 1: times over, so we should build them another twenty nine.

390
00:20:47,359 --> 00:20:49,880
Speaker 1: What's the point of this. It is enriched. This is

391
00:20:49,920 --> 00:20:52,360
Speaker 1: this use high speed rail as the model for everything.

392
00:20:53,040 --> 00:21:00,879
Speaker 1: This is enriching the companies and their owners who contribute

393
00:21:01,000 --> 00:21:05,439
Speaker 1: to the politicians, who provide the money of politicians in

394
00:21:05,480 --> 00:21:09,480
Speaker 1: turn gets some kind of kickback, either contributions to their

395
00:21:09,480 --> 00:21:13,760
Speaker 1: campaign or something under the table. Period. That's all it is.

396
00:21:13,800 --> 00:21:17,760
Speaker 1: It's it's tax money that circulates around and around, and

397
00:21:17,800 --> 00:21:20,760
Speaker 1: everybody grabs their share, and these buildings are gonna end

398
00:21:20,840 --> 00:21:24,640
Speaker 1: up getting bulldozed. They're uninhabitable for ninety nine point nine

399
00:21:25,400 --> 00:21:28,720
Speaker 1: percent of the population. They're uninhabitable. You'd have to be

400
00:21:29,400 --> 00:21:32,800
Speaker 1: a whacked out mental patient on on on the what

401
00:21:32,880 --> 00:21:36,520
Speaker 1: was they of that drug that the hamas Pepagon Captagon? Yes,

402
00:21:36,560 --> 00:21:38,639
Speaker 1: you have to be a Captagon addict. Don't want to

403
00:21:38,640 --> 00:21:40,320
Speaker 1: live there. Uh.

404
00:21:40,760 --> 00:21:42,800
Speaker 2: The receiver that you were talking about before, his name

405
00:21:42,800 --> 00:21:45,480
Speaker 2: is Mark Adams. He got removed. The new guy's named

406
00:21:45,520 --> 00:21:49,160
Speaker 2: Kevin Singer, who said the city has hundreds of outstandings

407
00:21:49,240 --> 00:21:53,680
Speaker 2: violations on these buildings, so they think with the ten

408
00:21:53,680 --> 00:21:56,640
Speaker 2: million dollars they can fix the problems. There's one thousand

409
00:21:56,640 --> 00:21:58,800
Speaker 2: people living at some of the twenty two properties.

410
00:21:59,400 --> 00:22:02,880
Speaker 1: How many times they sold this story? How many times

411
00:22:02,880 --> 00:22:04,879
Speaker 1: have they said, Okay, and we're gonna put this amount

412
00:22:04,880 --> 00:22:06,720
Speaker 1: of money in and we're going to clean up the

413
00:22:06,800 --> 00:22:10,359
Speaker 1: violations and repair the Yeah, okay, and then and about

414
00:22:10,600 --> 00:22:12,600
Speaker 1: even if you did that, which you're gonna see, they're

415
00:22:12,600 --> 00:22:14,040
Speaker 1: not going to do it. But even if they did,

416
00:22:14,240 --> 00:22:18,119
Speaker 1: in about ten minutes, the mental patients and drug addicts

417
00:22:18,119 --> 00:22:21,159
Speaker 1: will destroy the building all over again. That's all that

418
00:22:21,240 --> 00:22:24,239
Speaker 1: goes on. It's mental patients and drug addicts destroying the

419
00:22:24,280 --> 00:22:27,720
Speaker 1: free buildings that we give them. Now.

420
00:22:27,720 --> 00:22:31,399
Speaker 2: In another story, dealing with the homeless in Sherman Oaks,

421
00:22:32,200 --> 00:22:36,040
Speaker 2: Mayor Best Goon announced that they are going to send

422
00:22:36,560 --> 00:22:40,480
Speaker 2: a Circle team to Sherman Oaks to help respond to

423
00:22:40,560 --> 00:22:43,800
Speaker 2: calls involving the homeless. What does circle stand for? Oh,

424
00:22:43,840 --> 00:22:47,800
Speaker 2: this is a great one crisis an incident response through

425
00:22:47,800 --> 00:22:49,240
Speaker 2: community let engagement.

426
00:22:49,680 --> 00:22:55,439
Speaker 1: Wow, there's a lot of bureaucratic crap. Is there someone

427
00:22:55,520 --> 00:22:59,080
Speaker 1: comes up with these acronyms? Somebody? Is there a computer

428
00:22:59,200 --> 00:23:02,639
Speaker 1: program where if you type in a word and you

429
00:23:02,680 --> 00:23:06,560
Speaker 1: ask for an acronym, it'll spit out. Yeah.

430
00:23:06,680 --> 00:23:10,119
Speaker 2: It just types a bunch of bureaucratic lingo like engagement

431
00:23:10,200 --> 00:23:14,159
Speaker 2: and community and and you do a scrabble thing you

432
00:23:14,200 --> 00:23:16,919
Speaker 2: try to arrange them in order, so it sort of

433
00:23:17,000 --> 00:23:18,639
Speaker 2: sounds like something real.

434
00:23:19,560 --> 00:23:24,720
Speaker 1: This is useless. It's an unarmed alternative response program. Right.

435
00:23:25,200 --> 00:23:26,960
Speaker 2: These are supposed to be people that are going to

436
00:23:27,040 --> 00:23:29,480
Speaker 2: deal with the mentally ill. Right, Yeah, I don't know

437
00:23:29,520 --> 00:23:31,560
Speaker 2: if they come up there with the tiny couch and

438
00:23:31,600 --> 00:23:33,920
Speaker 2: they asked the vagrant to sit down and talk about

439
00:23:33,920 --> 00:23:34,639
Speaker 2: their childhood.

440
00:23:35,000 --> 00:23:37,800
Speaker 1: It's a fake. It's a mental health.

441
00:23:37,600 --> 00:23:42,120
Speaker 2: Professionals and individuals who have lived experience to address non

442
00:23:42,240 --> 00:23:47,880
Speaker 2: violent LAPD calls individuals with lived experience.

443
00:23:48,119 --> 00:23:52,960
Speaker 1: With these These are people who are vagrants themselves. I

444
00:23:53,000 --> 00:23:56,520
Speaker 1: guess normally have these problems, right, Yeah, And how does

445
00:23:56,560 --> 00:24:00,200
Speaker 1: that help? Nobody's ever explained how does that help? They

446
00:24:00,240 --> 00:24:05,159
Speaker 1: have to be taken indoors and taken into intensive rehabilitation

447
00:24:05,600 --> 00:24:08,080
Speaker 1: to get them off the drugs, or to get them

448
00:24:08,119 --> 00:24:11,560
Speaker 1: on the drugs to treat their mental illness. They have

449
00:24:11,600 --> 00:24:15,120
Speaker 1: to be thinking out of circulation, sitting down and let's

450
00:24:15,119 --> 00:24:19,440
Speaker 1: have a session. This is the cat. Do you feel today? Wonderful?

Speaker 2: And she thinks that the Circle team has worked wonders

453
00:24:22,359 --> 00:24:24,840
Speaker 2: in Hollywood and lost feelis and wants to bring it

454
00:24:24,840 --> 00:24:25,760
Speaker 2: to more neighborhoods.

455
00:24:26,119 --> 00:24:29,040
Speaker 1: Oh nobody noticing that? Yeah? Really? Yeah? Does she want

456
00:24:29,080 --> 00:24:32,040
Speaker 1: to take us on a tour of these wonderful Hollywood neighborhoods.

457
00:24:32,440 --> 00:24:36,919
Speaker 1: She's a fool. She is a gold plated fool and

458
00:24:36,960 --> 00:24:40,520
Speaker 1: an embarrassment. Oh, listen to this gobbledegook. Uh.

459
00:24:41,320 --> 00:24:45,720
Speaker 2: The Office of Community Safety supports non putative safety strategies

460
00:24:45,760 --> 00:24:51,080
Speaker 2: including civilian first responders, violence interruption re entry services, youth

461
00:24:51,160 --> 00:24:52,240
Speaker 2: diversion programs.

462
00:24:52,240 --> 00:24:55,320
Speaker 1: Oh, there's that word diversion. Who wants to interrupt violence

463
00:24:55,359 --> 00:24:59,840
Speaker 1: when you're unarmed? Who's volunteering to do this? Like that

464
00:25:00,359 --> 00:25:03,800
Speaker 1: is on the metro and they're diverted into what diversion

465
00:25:03,840 --> 00:25:06,399
Speaker 1: programs are failures? They don't work, and everybody knows they

466
00:25:06,440 --> 00:25:11,600
Speaker 1: don't work. That's nonsense. She's just so hateful the police,

467
00:25:12,160 --> 00:25:15,760
Speaker 1: and so the thing is she's she's terrorized that police

468
00:25:15,800 --> 00:25:19,240
Speaker 1: have guns makes her crazy, except her crowd is always

469
00:25:19,359 --> 00:25:24,399
Speaker 1: hiring LAPD officers or private security who are armed to

470
00:25:24,480 --> 00:25:29,280
Speaker 1: protect that their public situations. They're complete phonies. All right,

471
00:25:29,280 --> 00:25:29,880
Speaker 1: we'll be right back.

472
00:25:29,920 --> 00:25:34,160
Speaker 2: Johnny Ken I AM six forty Live everywhere iHeartRadio app.

473
00:25:35,200 --> 00:25:38,520
Speaker 3: You're listening to John and Ken on demand from KFI

474
00:25:38,760 --> 00:25:39,720
Speaker 3: AM six forty.

475
00:25:43,080 --> 00:25:45,720
Speaker 2: All right, our guests, after three o'clock, it's coming back

476
00:25:45,720 --> 00:25:48,800
Speaker 2: on this show. Rebecca Peterson is her name. She was

477
00:25:48,920 --> 00:25:51,720
Speaker 2: sexually attacked in Long Beach a couple of weeks ago

478
00:25:51,760 --> 00:25:53,560
Speaker 2: by a vagrant with his pants down, knocked her to

479
00:25:53,640 --> 00:25:56,600
Speaker 2: the ground after he lifted up her dress. Anyway, the

480
00:25:56,640 --> 00:25:59,240
Speaker 2: outrage was that the la County DA's office wanted to

481
00:25:59,280 --> 00:26:03,040
Speaker 2: go with a misdemeanor against the attacker. We understand they're

482
00:26:03,080 --> 00:26:05,639
Speaker 2: going to reconsider their decision. We'll find out if anything

483
00:26:05,680 --> 00:26:08,800
Speaker 2: happened in the story when we bring Rebecca back on

484
00:26:09,440 --> 00:26:12,080
Speaker 2: right after the news at three o'clock here on the

485
00:26:12,200 --> 00:26:15,560
Speaker 2: John and Ken Show. This story, because I think we

486
00:26:15,720 --> 00:26:18,520
Speaker 2: mentioned just a couple of weeks ago it was more generic,

487
00:26:18,600 --> 00:26:22,800
Speaker 2: now going to be specific, that the offshore wind industry

488
00:26:23,240 --> 00:26:27,800
Speaker 2: was running into real problems. The problem is inflation. First,

489
00:26:27,880 --> 00:26:31,320
Speaker 2: I thought, well, there's not enough winds sometimes, but apparently

490
00:26:31,440 --> 00:26:37,280
Speaker 2: inflation is really crimping their availability to construct these wind farms.

491
00:26:37,960 --> 00:26:41,080
Speaker 2: This story we're going to talk about deal specifically with

492
00:26:41,200 --> 00:26:45,480
Speaker 2: projects that were scheduled for New Jersey and they were

493
00:26:45,480 --> 00:26:49,320
Speaker 2: coming for a company in Denmark, a company called Orsted,

494
00:26:50,320 --> 00:26:54,480
Speaker 2: and they have canceled their New Jersey prospects. They may

495
00:26:54,520 --> 00:26:58,040
Speaker 2: have to write off as much as five point six

496
00:26:58,640 --> 00:27:05,280
Speaker 2: billion dollars in this project. Apparently this will really crimp

497
00:27:05,280 --> 00:27:08,840
Speaker 2: the Biden administration's plans to make the wind industry a

498
00:27:08,840 --> 00:27:12,760
Speaker 2: big component as an alternative to you know, greenhouse gas

499
00:27:12,800 --> 00:27:15,919
Speaker 2: emissions from coal fired sources of energy.

500
00:27:16,359 --> 00:27:21,080
Speaker 1: It's too expensive to build wind turbines in the ocean.

501
00:27:22,280 --> 00:27:25,160
Speaker 1: So it's so bad the company is willing to take

502
00:27:25,160 --> 00:27:28,359
Speaker 1: a five and a half billion dollar loss. They figured

503
00:27:28,400 --> 00:27:29,640
Speaker 1: they'll be saving money here.

504
00:27:30,000 --> 00:27:33,840
Speaker 2: I love the name of the chief executive officer of ORSTED.

505
00:27:33,880 --> 00:27:39,000
Speaker 2: His name is Mad's Nipper. Mad's Nipper. Yeahs, it's a

506
00:27:39,040 --> 00:27:43,520
Speaker 2: popular name in Denmark anyway. He said that the world

507
00:27:43,600 --> 00:27:46,720
Speaker 2: has in so many ways from a macro macroeconomic and

508
00:27:46,840 --> 00:27:49,760
Speaker 2: industry point of view, turned upside down. The projects were

509
00:27:49,800 --> 00:27:53,080
Speaker 2: called Ocean Wind one and two and they were supposed

510
00:27:53,119 --> 00:27:55,280
Speaker 2: to provide a green energy to New Jersey.

511
00:27:56,040 --> 00:27:56,960
Speaker 1: The governor there is.

512
00:27:56,960 --> 00:27:59,280
Speaker 2: Just like a newsome. His name is Phil Murphy. He

513
00:27:59,320 --> 00:28:01,439
Speaker 2: also thinks he's going to be a big player on

514
00:28:01,480 --> 00:28:04,080
Speaker 2: the national scene and he wants to be president too.

515
00:28:04,640 --> 00:28:04,840
Speaker 1: Yeah.

516
00:28:04,840 --> 00:28:08,000
Speaker 2: I think they followed us with the no gas powered

517
00:28:08,040 --> 00:28:11,120
Speaker 2: car sales. I think they came up at the same Yeah,

518
00:28:11,560 --> 00:28:13,639
Speaker 2: this is this is all going backwards. I mean, what

519
00:28:13,680 --> 00:28:17,040
Speaker 2: if we learned this week. We've learned this week that

520
00:28:17,040 --> 00:28:22,920
Speaker 2: that Ford, GM, Mercedes, and Tesla all admitted that there

521
00:28:23,000 --> 00:28:25,679
Speaker 2: isn't much of a market for their electric cars and

522
00:28:25,720 --> 00:28:26,800
Speaker 2: they're scaling back.

523
00:28:27,160 --> 00:28:30,360
Speaker 1: Well, the first three are scaling back production. All right,

524
00:28:30,920 --> 00:28:33,119
Speaker 1: all right, So you have four major car companies in

525
00:28:33,160 --> 00:28:37,159
Speaker 1: the electric field who say, and these aren't selling, And

526
00:28:37,200 --> 00:28:40,120
Speaker 1: now you have the wind turbine saying we're going to

527
00:28:40,200 --> 00:28:42,120
Speaker 1: lose five and a half billion. In fact, we'd rather

528
00:28:42,200 --> 00:28:44,640
Speaker 1: lose five and a half billion than continue with this

529
00:28:44,760 --> 00:28:47,239
Speaker 1: charade any further. You just can't. You can't do this

530
00:28:47,880 --> 00:28:48,960
Speaker 1: at a reasonable price.

531
00:28:49,080 --> 00:28:52,320
Speaker 2: They're already having trouble in Europe where clearly they are

532
00:28:52,400 --> 00:28:54,720
Speaker 2: big on projects like offshore wind.

533
00:28:56,000 --> 00:28:57,440
Speaker 1: And you know, the problem I.

534
00:28:57,440 --> 00:28:59,960
Speaker 2: Mentioned a few minutes ago is always that you can't

535
00:29:00,080 --> 00:29:03,040
Speaker 2: it's not reliable. But what these stories are telling us

536
00:29:03,080 --> 00:29:07,280
Speaker 2: is that it's very damn expensive. And because inflation and

537
00:29:07,360 --> 00:29:10,400
Speaker 2: then you know, the interest rates are rising, so the

538
00:29:10,440 --> 00:29:13,120
Speaker 2: barring costs are going up. They just they can't come

539
00:29:13,200 --> 00:29:15,760
Speaker 2: up with the money to fund these huge offshore wind

540
00:29:15,800 --> 00:29:17,000
Speaker 2: construction projects.

541
00:29:17,400 --> 00:29:20,840
Speaker 1: And a lot of people didn't want them because nobody

542
00:29:20,840 --> 00:29:23,960
Speaker 1: who lives or goes to the Jersey shore wants to

543
00:29:24,000 --> 00:29:27,800
Speaker 1: look at wind turbines in the distance as you're staring

544
00:29:27,840 --> 00:29:29,680
Speaker 1: at at the ocean. Well, would you really look at

545
00:29:29,720 --> 00:29:31,560
Speaker 1: oil tankers like when you're down in Long Beach.

546
00:29:31,560 --> 00:29:35,680
Speaker 2: You're no, that's not pretty. It's impressing. During the pandemic,

547
00:29:35,680 --> 00:29:37,960
Speaker 2: there was a bunch of cruise ships out there because

548
00:29:37,960 --> 00:29:40,120
Speaker 2: they had nowhere to go. But often it's just big,

549
00:29:40,160 --> 00:29:42,480
Speaker 2: big oil tanker sitting out there. It's like, yeah, I.

550
00:29:42,400 --> 00:29:45,080
Speaker 1: Want to go in that water. Maybe there'll be a leak. Yeah,

551
00:29:45,120 --> 00:29:47,840
Speaker 1: So they thought it was gonna hurt tourism in Jersey. Also,

552
00:29:47,960 --> 00:29:51,400
Speaker 1: the fishermen figured that these wind turbines were going to

553
00:29:51,440 --> 00:29:56,640
Speaker 1: disrupt the fish. Michael Schellenberger's group of journalists actually did

554
00:29:57,320 --> 00:30:00,600
Speaker 1: a series of investigated pieces because dead whales we're turning

555
00:30:00,680 --> 00:30:04,240
Speaker 1: up on the on the Jersey shore. I remember that story.

556
00:30:04,280 --> 00:30:05,960
Speaker 2: Did they ever find out if it's connected to the

557
00:30:06,000 --> 00:30:07,080
Speaker 2: wind turbines or.

558
00:30:07,520 --> 00:30:11,120
Speaker 1: The Schellenberger Crawt says absolutely, because really do they know

559
00:30:11,160 --> 00:30:15,000
Speaker 1: what it does? It was disrupting the sonar communication between

560
00:30:15,040 --> 00:30:18,560
Speaker 1: the whales. He just issued a piece this week. I

561
00:30:19,080 --> 00:30:23,680
Speaker 1: could read it another day another time. Technical way what

562
00:30:23,720 --> 00:30:25,120
Speaker 1: they think it was something to do with the way

563
00:30:25,160 --> 00:30:28,440
Speaker 1: the whales communicate with each other. Of course, you know

564
00:30:28,560 --> 00:30:32,400
Speaker 1: the political officials in Jersey Jersey are strongly denouncing it,

565
00:30:32,760 --> 00:30:36,760
Speaker 1: but I don't believe them because you know they're.

566
00:30:36,640 --> 00:30:40,520
Speaker 2: Committed to it, right, So they're committed to it, they're fanatics,

567
00:30:40,560 --> 00:30:44,200
Speaker 2: and obviously there's some financial incentive that everybody's enjoying here.

568
00:30:44,840 --> 00:30:46,840
Speaker 1: I mean, I can't, I'm sure you know. What is

569
00:30:46,880 --> 00:30:49,360
Speaker 1: the angle here that all these companies are willing to

570
00:30:49,440 --> 00:30:54,640
Speaker 1: lose billions of dollars on technology that is is just

571
00:30:54,840 --> 00:30:58,520
Speaker 1: not ready yet, It's just not doable at this point

572
00:30:58,800 --> 00:31:02,360
Speaker 1: in time. What what is it is somebody printing money

573
00:31:02,760 --> 00:31:07,480
Speaker 1: who's got billions of dollars to blow on electric cars

574
00:31:07,600 --> 00:31:12,360
Speaker 1: and windmills out in the ocean. Because these are tens

575
00:31:12,360 --> 00:31:16,680
Speaker 1: of billions of dollars, it's added up in significant cash here. Yeah,

576
00:31:16,800 --> 00:31:17,520
Speaker 1: I don't get it.

577
00:31:18,120 --> 00:31:21,440
Speaker 2: And the other thing is, even if they do eventually

578
00:31:21,480 --> 00:31:24,720
Speaker 2: build these projects, it's going to be expensive because the developers,

579
00:31:24,720 --> 00:31:27,200
Speaker 2: it said here, are going to demand higher prices and

580
00:31:27,240 --> 00:31:31,680
Speaker 2: protection from inflation. So it'll be huge, huge electric bills

581
00:31:31,800 --> 00:31:35,800
Speaker 2: for consumers of these offshore wind generated power bills. That's

582
00:31:35,840 --> 00:31:37,840
Speaker 2: all they have to do. The more this cost, the

583
00:31:37,840 --> 00:31:39,160
Speaker 2: more they want to get the money back.

584
00:31:40,000 --> 00:31:43,560
Speaker 1: If there was any intelligence left in American voters, you

585
00:31:43,600 --> 00:31:49,480
Speaker 1: would vote out every politician pushing this green energy, electric cars,

586
00:31:50,040 --> 00:31:53,080
Speaker 1: wind turbines out in the ocean, all of it. Okay,

587
00:31:53,520 --> 00:31:56,080
Speaker 1: just all of it. This is going to be a

588
00:31:56,120 --> 00:32:01,000
Speaker 1: financial disaster, an environmental disaster. I mean, how many whales

589
00:32:01,160 --> 00:32:03,240
Speaker 1: do you want to kill? How many how many fish

590
00:32:03,280 --> 00:32:06,160
Speaker 1: do you want to kill? For wings? Turbines? Do you

591
00:32:06,200 --> 00:32:09,760
Speaker 1: see where this this Danish company or stead broke round

592
00:32:09,800 --> 00:32:12,280
Speaker 1: in It was Ocean City, New Jersey or Old Stomping Ground.

593
00:32:12,520 --> 00:32:12,960
Speaker 1: Oh yeah.

594
00:32:13,240 --> 00:32:16,720
Speaker 2: In September and sixty people showed up to protest, including

595
00:32:16,760 --> 00:32:20,120
Speaker 2: six orho were arrested. They had just broken ground on

596
00:32:20,120 --> 00:32:23,920
Speaker 2: one of these wind offshore wind projects, Ocean Wind one

597
00:32:24,000 --> 00:32:26,720
Speaker 2: and Ocean Wind two. And people there you have felt

598
00:32:26,720 --> 00:32:28,760
Speaker 2: the way you did that. They don't want to see

599
00:32:28,760 --> 00:32:31,240
Speaker 2: this giant thing out there. No, man, then you're going

600
00:32:31,320 --> 00:32:35,000
Speaker 2: to charge Then you're going to charge me a fortune? Yeah,

601
00:32:35,240 --> 00:32:36,080
Speaker 2: for the electricity.

602
00:32:36,120 --> 00:32:37,280
Speaker 1: It will be humongous.

603
00:32:38,160 --> 00:32:40,200
Speaker 2: Look at us already here in California with more than

604
00:32:40,200 --> 00:32:43,200
Speaker 2: twice the electricity rates of the other states because they're

605
00:32:43,200 --> 00:32:46,240
Speaker 2: already doing some of this renewable stuff. But just think

606
00:32:46,360 --> 00:32:48,080
Speaker 2: they want to go one hundred percent renewable. You know

607
00:32:48,080 --> 00:32:49,200
Speaker 2: what your powerable is going to look like?

608
00:32:49,200 --> 00:32:49,440
Speaker 3: Then?

609
00:32:50,120 --> 00:32:52,719
Speaker 2: No, no wonder they came up with this idea that

610
00:32:52,760 --> 00:32:54,760
Speaker 2: part of your power will be based on your income,

611
00:32:54,960 --> 00:32:57,240
Speaker 2: because they know this is going to drive the poor

612
00:32:57,320 --> 00:32:59,640
Speaker 2: people out the way property taxes did in the seventies.

613
00:32:59,720 --> 00:33:02,120
Speaker 1: Right. That is the clue, isn't it. I hadn't even

614
00:33:02,120 --> 00:33:05,640
Speaker 1: thought of that. It isn't just their socialism, it's they

615
00:33:05,720 --> 00:33:07,600
Speaker 1: know that this is the bills are going to be

616
00:33:07,640 --> 00:33:10,720
Speaker 1: crushing for middle class people and poor people.

617
00:33:10,800 --> 00:33:12,680
Speaker 2: So they already came up with their escape plan. Well,

618
00:33:12,680 --> 00:33:15,200
