Speaker 1: Empire or far away to do a show for somebody

00:00:17,120 --> 00:00:20,160
Speaker 1: can make me a cheeseburger, I'll be either. See that's

9
00:00:20,360 --> 00:00:24,600
Speaker 1: it takes. It's all across yeah, right, yeah, right, uh yeah,

10
00:00:24,640 --> 00:00:26,800
Speaker 1: a lot of news this afternoon. Of course. Harvey Harvey

11
00:00:26,840 --> 00:00:29,920
Speaker 1: Weinstein got sixteen more years in prison. Does that mean

12
00:00:30,000 --> 00:00:32,159
Speaker 1: because he's already serving time in New York, So when

13
00:00:32,200 --> 00:00:33,640
Speaker 1: he finishes New York, he has to come out here

14
00:00:33,680 --> 00:00:35,559
Speaker 1: and service time. Is that as he doing? Yes, if

15
00:00:35,560 --> 00:00:37,680
Speaker 1: he makes it to be dead, if he makes it

16
00:00:37,720 --> 00:00:40,680
Speaker 1: to the age of ninety three, well that's when the

17
00:00:40,680 --> 00:00:43,360
Speaker 1: New York turns over. Yeah, if he served out the

18
00:00:43,360 --> 00:00:47,159
Speaker 1: full term, yeah, and then he'd get York is like California.

19
00:00:47,280 --> 00:00:51,320
Speaker 1: They'll think he's old and cut his time way down. Probably. Uh. Yeah,

20
00:00:51,400 --> 00:00:54,640
Speaker 1: he's in he's in bad physical shape. He's seventy, he's

21
00:00:55,080 --> 00:00:56,800
Speaker 1: he's definitely going to die in prison. Well, I keep

22
00:00:56,800 --> 00:00:59,680
Speaker 1: thinking some of it's fake, like you know, trying to

23
00:00:59,680 --> 00:01:03,600
Speaker 1: get empathy from a judge, or but he looks unhealthy.

24
00:01:04,200 --> 00:01:06,840
Speaker 1: He always has. Yeah, he's a mob. There's no way

25
00:01:06,880 --> 00:01:09,640
Speaker 1: that hard could carry all that weight. No, and that

26
00:01:09,760 --> 00:01:13,080
Speaker 1: deformed penis that's right. That thing's gonna get infected or

27
00:01:14,120 --> 00:01:16,520
Speaker 1: somebody in prison's gonna take care of it. So if

28
00:01:16,520 --> 00:01:18,440
Speaker 1: he was always getting mixed up with Epstein, when one

29
00:01:18,440 --> 00:01:20,360
Speaker 1: of the women said, I thought it was inside out

30
00:01:20,560 --> 00:01:24,040
Speaker 1: or something like that, I get them mixed up. Epstein

31
00:01:24,080 --> 00:01:27,479
Speaker 1: had a problem too. I know they both had deformities.

32
00:01:27,520 --> 00:01:30,440
Speaker 1: Yea and Clinton, all of them. Remember, one woman said

33
00:01:30,440 --> 00:01:32,640
Speaker 1: she felt sorry when she saw it was like even

34
00:01:32,680 --> 00:01:36,880
Speaker 1: in the middle of a sex assaulted, like this poor guy,

35
00:01:37,160 --> 00:01:39,000
Speaker 1: wait of it, he's about to rape me? What the hell? No,

36
00:01:39,080 --> 00:01:42,160
Speaker 1: wonder you're angry? Wow, I've ever seen that before. Yeah,

37
00:01:42,160 --> 00:01:44,520
Speaker 1: So let's see, and he'd be ninety three and then

38
00:01:44,520 --> 00:01:47,080
Speaker 1: another sixteen years, so he would be in prison until

39
00:01:47,120 --> 00:01:51,200
Speaker 1: one hundred and nine. Cool. Yeah, I'm sure he's gonna

40
00:01:51,200 --> 00:01:53,640
Speaker 1: make it. We'll get a full report in about an

41
00:01:53,680 --> 00:01:58,520
Speaker 1: hour from CAFI News reporter Blake Trolley. Another good time

42
00:01:58,560 --> 00:02:00,640
Speaker 1: to point out and they also gonna times. Did put

43
00:02:00,640 --> 00:02:02,520
Speaker 1: this a bit early in the story, but I like

44
00:02:02,600 --> 00:02:05,880
Speaker 1: the way it was expressed by staff writer Hailey Smith.

45
00:02:05,920 --> 00:02:09,160
Speaker 1: We're talking about the storm that's coming up here. Some

46
00:02:09,320 --> 00:02:11,440
Speaker 1: of it. It was weird this morning. It was raining

47
00:02:11,480 --> 00:02:14,080
Speaker 1: pretty heavy about ten am. Half an hour later I

48
00:02:14,080 --> 00:02:16,960
Speaker 1: got pure sunshine. I guess it's just like the small

49
00:02:17,120 --> 00:02:19,720
Speaker 1: beginning wave or whatever it's coming in. Yeah, there's gonna

50
00:02:19,720 --> 00:02:21,959
Speaker 1: be waves of showers. I closed up all the windows.

51
00:02:22,000 --> 00:02:24,160
Speaker 1: I thought this is it, and then we're all gonna die.

52
00:02:24,240 --> 00:02:28,440
Speaker 1: We're all gonna drowned. Storm watch. Yeah, no tomorrow, but

53
00:02:28,600 --> 00:02:30,680
Speaker 1: it takes Thursdy right, Tomorrow is gonna be the bad day. Yeah,

54
00:02:30,680 --> 00:02:36,720
Speaker 1: it's an overnight and tomorrow, Yeah, it's got that still

55
00:02:36,480 --> 00:02:38,920
Speaker 1: still died down. I don't feel as much wind. We

56
00:02:38,960 --> 00:02:42,440
Speaker 1: still have that stupid eucalyptustry aimed at us. Oh, I

57
00:02:42,520 --> 00:02:46,240
Speaker 1: forgot because there there's one neighbor who cut his tree down,

58
00:02:48,080 --> 00:02:52,919
Speaker 1: and have you talked to him? We have another neighbor

59
00:02:53,000 --> 00:02:55,640
Speaker 1: has communicated with him and he says, no, you need

60
00:02:55,680 --> 00:03:01,520
Speaker 1: a third party. I called a city inspector and that guy, well,

61
00:03:01,560 --> 00:03:04,280
Speaker 1: when when I got ahold of that office. They put

62
00:03:04,280 --> 00:03:05,720
Speaker 1: it on the schedule, but it was going to be

63
00:03:05,720 --> 00:03:08,720
Speaker 1: four weeks away and then I haven't heard back from him.

64
00:03:10,240 --> 00:03:12,359
Speaker 1: What is the liability there? Do you have any idea

65
00:03:12,520 --> 00:03:14,440
Speaker 1: that if you have a tree on your property but

66
00:03:14,480 --> 00:03:17,640
Speaker 1: it falls over onto your neighbor's property and causes damage,

67
00:03:18,160 --> 00:03:20,800
Speaker 1: who's who's who's on the hook for that? Interesting you

68
00:03:20,840 --> 00:03:27,920
Speaker 1: say that, Oh, because insurance companies are arbitrary over what

69
00:03:28,040 --> 00:03:32,200
Speaker 1: they want to pay. Oh, the homeowners stuff or yeah,

70
00:03:32,280 --> 00:03:34,960
Speaker 1: the homeowners insurance. Right, you'd think it would be the

71
00:03:35,000 --> 00:03:39,160
Speaker 1: neighbors homeowner's insurance that would cover our damage because the

72
00:03:39,200 --> 00:03:43,200
Speaker 1: tree is their property. And if they refuse to cut

73
00:03:43,240 --> 00:03:47,120
Speaker 1: it back, well, well, if I'm on the jury, Yeah,

74
00:03:47,120 --> 00:03:51,520
Speaker 1: the tree that hit us, it just happened. Nobody refused

75
00:03:51,560 --> 00:03:54,880
Speaker 1: to cut it back. And just these eucalyptus trees shouldn't

76
00:03:54,880 --> 00:03:57,560
Speaker 1: exist in southern California to begin with. They have really

77
00:03:57,600 --> 00:04:02,120
Speaker 1: weak root systems, and the soil in this particular spot

78
00:04:02,160 --> 00:04:05,160
Speaker 1: behind our house is not is not conducive. But but

79
00:04:05,360 --> 00:04:09,560
Speaker 1: now the other neighbor with the eucalyptus tree, he's he's

80
00:04:09,600 --> 00:04:12,520
Speaker 1: been warned, So that's I don't know if that changes

81
00:04:12,560 --> 00:04:16,200
Speaker 1: the liability coverage or not. But anyway, this one would

82
00:04:16,240 --> 00:04:19,560
Speaker 1: probably go over and hit our bedroom, probably would slice

83
00:04:19,600 --> 00:04:22,880
Speaker 1: me in here beeping the bunker tonight. Well, well my

84
00:04:22,920 --> 00:04:29,000
Speaker 1: wife has been sleeping downstairs on any of the windy nights. Yeah,

85
00:04:29,040 --> 00:04:31,120
Speaker 1: that's smart. Yeah, you start to do with the tree

86
00:04:31,200 --> 00:04:35,039
Speaker 1: or you. I was thinking that I can't need to

87
00:04:35,160 --> 00:04:39,159
Speaker 1: escape you windy again. Huh, I don't see it. It's

88
00:04:39,160 --> 00:04:41,719
Speaker 1: not windy, honey, Oh no it is. It is. Look

89
00:04:41,720 --> 00:04:44,119
Speaker 1: at that trees bent over. It's a good excuse blowing

90
00:04:44,200 --> 00:04:48,480
Speaker 1: so hard. So they also gonno Times writer said, and

91
00:04:48,480 --> 00:04:50,360
Speaker 1: I like the way she wrote this is almost sounds

92
00:04:50,360 --> 00:04:52,560
Speaker 1: like we really pulled together and pulled off a feet.

93
00:04:53,000 --> 00:04:57,039
Speaker 1: The state has already defied forecast for a dry winter

94
00:04:57,200 --> 00:05:01,040
Speaker 1: driven by Lnina when a series of nine atmospheric river

95
00:05:01,120 --> 00:05:06,200
Speaker 1: storms pummeled California in January. Yeah, we pulled it off together.

96
00:05:06,480 --> 00:05:10,840
Speaker 1: We defied the forecast, bad prediction by those ninnies with

97
00:05:10,880 --> 00:05:14,840
Speaker 1: the weather seratologists and regists, genius climatologists who keep telling

98
00:05:14,920 --> 00:05:16,200
Speaker 1: us what the weather is going to be a hundred

99
00:05:16,240 --> 00:05:18,480
Speaker 1: years from now and then, and they can't get it.

100
00:05:19,279 --> 00:05:21,280
Speaker 1: They can't get it three months in advance. Whether it's

101
00:05:21,279 --> 00:05:24,120
Speaker 1: going to be a heavy or wet winter or a

102
00:05:24,200 --> 00:05:26,479
Speaker 1: dry one. Now, that's why I laughed a month ago,

103
00:05:26,520 --> 00:05:28,839
Speaker 1: because you were sighting some that's it's coming back in

104
00:05:28,920 --> 00:05:32,280
Speaker 1: mid February another round. And I'm like, we're gonna believe

105
00:05:32,279 --> 00:05:34,200
Speaker 1: these people. Now, No, I wanted it on the record,

106
00:05:34,240 --> 00:05:36,760
Speaker 1: if case they were in, case they were wrong again, right,

107
00:05:37,160 --> 00:05:39,520
Speaker 1: they could be right if you know this is mostly

108
00:05:39,520 --> 00:05:43,440
Speaker 1: there's another storm after this for midweek next week. So yeah,

109
00:05:43,440 --> 00:05:46,080
Speaker 1: this is coming from a different direction. This is coming

110
00:05:46,120 --> 00:05:48,839
Speaker 1: down from the north. Oh yeah. All the experts in

111
00:05:48,880 --> 00:05:52,160
Speaker 1: this article are saying this is a very unusual circulation.

112
00:05:52,560 --> 00:05:54,520
Speaker 1: But by the way, they do agree with what you

113
00:05:54,560 --> 00:05:56,599
Speaker 1: and I have been saying. This has been one of

114
00:05:56,600 --> 00:06:00,240
Speaker 1: the coldest winters in this part of the country in

115
00:06:00,320 --> 00:06:03,960
Speaker 1: a long time. I don't need data. I know what

116
00:06:04,000 --> 00:06:07,039
Speaker 1: I feel when I go outside. Yeah, no, I know.

117
00:06:07,600 --> 00:06:10,960
Speaker 1: And so the global warming crowd has to shut up

118
00:06:11,560 --> 00:06:14,159
Speaker 1: because we have one of the coldest winters in recent memory,

119
00:06:14,200 --> 00:06:19,159
Speaker 1: and the drought crowd has to shut up. The crowd Yeah,

120
00:06:19,200 --> 00:06:21,720
Speaker 1: well that'll never happen because they don't like the way

121
00:06:21,760 --> 00:06:24,600
Speaker 1: he used water. Yeah right, well, then let's argue about that.

122
00:06:24,760 --> 00:06:29,760
Speaker 1: But don't don't carry on about climate change causing record droughts.

123
00:06:29,839 --> 00:06:33,400
Speaker 1: It's like, you know, be more intelligent and smarter than

124
00:06:33,440 --> 00:06:36,360
Speaker 1: that and understand the cycles of weather that have been

125
00:06:36,360 --> 00:06:40,680
Speaker 1: afflicting California since the beginning of time. There were reports

126
00:06:40,680 --> 00:06:42,479
Speaker 1: that there was some kind of snow flurries at the

127
00:06:42,480 --> 00:06:44,880
Speaker 1: Hollywood Sign. Did you see that story this morning? But

128
00:06:44,960 --> 00:06:48,280
Speaker 1: there's been some flurry activity up there. People weren't sure,

129
00:06:48,360 --> 00:06:50,680
Speaker 1: but you know, with the rain that fell early, but

130
00:06:50,839 --> 00:06:55,520
Speaker 1: they think it looked like snow to people. But one

131
00:06:55,560 --> 00:06:58,360
Speaker 1: meteorologist said this was rare. If this whole system was

132
00:06:58,400 --> 00:07:00,640
Speaker 1: pushed a little more off to the east, it probably

133
00:07:00,640 --> 00:07:02,760
Speaker 1: would have been more of a dry, strong wind event.

134
00:07:03,600 --> 00:07:06,240
Speaker 1: But it's interacting with the Pacific, and that's why we're

135
00:07:06,240 --> 00:07:09,000
Speaker 1: gonna get the moisture right on top of it. Sucks

136
00:07:09,040 --> 00:07:11,040
Speaker 1: up all the moisture from the ocean. The next paragraph

137
00:07:11,080 --> 00:07:13,000
Speaker 1: says it again. Indeed, it was only months ago when

138
00:07:13,000 --> 00:07:15,480
Speaker 1: the forecasters called for a dryer the normal winter driven

139
00:07:15,560 --> 00:07:18,920
Speaker 1: largely by Lamina. Why a climate pattern? Why why don't

140
00:07:18,960 --> 00:07:21,480
Speaker 1: why doesn't the Times lose those phone numbers of all

141
00:07:21,520 --> 00:07:26,560
Speaker 1: the forecasters that they call. Oh, because everybody enjoys predicting

142
00:07:26,680 --> 00:07:29,800
Speaker 1: and yeah, but it's working about the future and experts,

143
00:07:29,840 --> 00:07:32,240
Speaker 1: and I don't enjoy having my time wasted by people

144
00:07:32,240 --> 00:07:34,840
Speaker 1: who don't know what they're talking about. You know, I

145
00:07:34,840 --> 00:07:38,640
Speaker 1: could talk to myself if I wanted that conversation. All Right,

146
00:07:39,000 --> 00:07:41,280
Speaker 1: we got more coming up. We got a lot to

147
00:07:41,320 --> 00:07:44,120
Speaker 1: get to this hour. It did come back around the

148
00:07:44,280 --> 00:07:48,080
Speaker 1: idea of going after the oil companies for excessive profits

149
00:07:48,080 --> 00:07:52,360
Speaker 1: in California, the high gas prices that you're paying. Newsom

150
00:07:52,360 --> 00:07:55,840
Speaker 1: stood up there and as usual, you know, said that

151
00:07:55,920 --> 00:07:59,600
Speaker 1: we're gonna go after these oil companies, excessive profits. We're

152
00:07:59,600 --> 00:08:02,160
Speaker 1: gonna take away some of those profits. Well, they're getting

153
00:08:02,160 --> 00:08:06,480
Speaker 1: their real serious hearings in Sacramento this week, and the

154
00:08:06,600 --> 00:08:10,280
Speaker 1: response from the legislators were supposed to be Newsome's minions.

155
00:08:10,800 --> 00:08:13,280
Speaker 1: Maybe a bit surprising to you. Johnny Kent KF I

156
00:08:13,360 --> 00:08:16,800
Speaker 1: am six forty. We're live everywhere on the iHeartRadio app. Yeah,

157
00:08:17,040 --> 00:08:19,960
Speaker 1: heard a rumor the Moist Line's coming back tomorrow already.

158
00:08:20,320 --> 00:08:23,560
Speaker 1: Are you aware of that rumor? On Friday it's gonna

159
00:08:23,560 --> 00:08:26,240
Speaker 1: be the moist Line. Yeah, it's Friday already. H Yeah,

160
00:08:26,360 --> 00:08:29,400
Speaker 1: leave a message. The iHeart Radio app is a neat

161
00:08:29,400 --> 00:08:31,720
Speaker 1: and easy way to do it the microphone icon or

162
00:08:31,720 --> 00:08:33,400
Speaker 1: the Johnny Kent page there, or the john and Kent

163
00:08:33,480 --> 00:08:37,360
Speaker 1: section of the app at KFI and then use the

164
00:08:37,520 --> 00:08:39,319
Speaker 1: icon to the microphone icon to leave a message or

165
00:08:39,320 --> 00:08:41,000
Speaker 1: call the hull three number one eighty seven and seven

166
00:08:41,040 --> 00:08:45,400
Speaker 1: moist eighty six one eight seven seven six six four

167
00:08:46,280 --> 00:08:51,920
Speaker 1: seven eight eight six in typical dippity do Gavin Newsome fashion,

168
00:08:51,960 --> 00:08:54,800
Speaker 1: and a few months ago he started wagging his finger

169
00:08:54,840 --> 00:08:57,400
Speaker 1: and doing his period full stop. But he says, I'm

170
00:08:57,480 --> 00:09:01,400
Speaker 1: going after the oil companies of all. The talk for

171
00:09:01,559 --> 00:09:06,640
Speaker 1: much of last year was about California's obscenely high gasoline prices,

172
00:09:07,040 --> 00:09:09,800
Speaker 1: well above what people paid in the rest of the country,

173
00:09:09,840 --> 00:09:12,680
Speaker 1: even though they were seeing increases too. We were seeing

174
00:09:12,920 --> 00:09:17,479
Speaker 1: numbers that have just never been seen before. They eventually

175
00:09:17,480 --> 00:09:20,200
Speaker 1: went down the gas prices, so a lot of the

176
00:09:20,280 --> 00:09:24,040
Speaker 1: chatter stopped. But before that happened, Newsom called for a

177
00:09:24,120 --> 00:09:27,880
Speaker 1: special session of the legislature in December to talk about

178
00:09:27,920 --> 00:09:33,000
Speaker 1: excessive oil company profits. We've got to do something about that. Well,

179
00:09:33,280 --> 00:09:37,079
Speaker 1: this week it has finally come around to actual hearings

180
00:09:37,120 --> 00:09:41,920
Speaker 1: in the state Senate in Sacramento, and we've told you

181
00:09:42,160 --> 00:09:47,240
Speaker 1: with the Communist Party, the idea of planned economies. They

182
00:09:47,320 --> 00:09:50,840
Speaker 1: already passed a bill where they're going to set the

183
00:09:50,880 --> 00:09:53,640
Speaker 1: wages and benefits for fast food companies that got halted

184
00:09:53,640 --> 00:09:56,360
Speaker 1: by the courts until we vote on it. They've also

185
00:09:56,360 --> 00:09:58,240
Speaker 1: passed a bill where they're going to decide what can

186
00:09:58,280 --> 00:10:02,440
Speaker 1: be said about COVID nineteen, particularly among physicians. And now

187
00:10:02,800 --> 00:10:06,680
Speaker 1: they actually wanted to cap the oil company profit margins.

188
00:10:07,040 --> 00:10:09,559
Speaker 1: That was the idea behind the bill that's being discussed

189
00:10:10,080 --> 00:10:15,840
Speaker 1: in total government control. It is all industries, it is,

190
00:10:15,920 --> 00:10:17,760
Speaker 1: and they don't have a clue what they're doing. In fact,

191
00:10:18,360 --> 00:10:21,679
Speaker 1: one of the articles I'm looking at in Politico says, um,

192
00:10:21,840 --> 00:10:25,440
Speaker 1: we need more information. We don't really know how this works. Well,

193
00:10:25,800 --> 00:10:28,199
Speaker 1: but I love the quote from one state Senator, Dave

194
00:10:28,360 --> 00:10:32,000
Speaker 1: min Is, a Democrat from Irvine. There's a belief out

195
00:10:32,000 --> 00:10:34,559
Speaker 1: there that oil companies were profiting off the backs of Californians.

196
00:10:34,559 --> 00:10:37,120
Speaker 1: But we don't really have a smoking gun as far

197
00:10:37,120 --> 00:10:40,439
Speaker 1: as I can see, that shows intentional collusion. You mean proof, Yeah,

198
00:10:40,480 --> 00:10:42,800
Speaker 1: I remember that judge made that decision some time ago.

199
00:10:42,840 --> 00:10:46,000
Speaker 1: They've done this time and time again for years, investigating

200
00:10:46,000 --> 00:10:49,040
Speaker 1: the oil companies as to whether or not they're colluding, Well,

201
00:10:49,040 --> 00:10:51,199
Speaker 1: they're up to something. If they're in time and time again,

202
00:10:51,640 --> 00:10:54,840
Speaker 1: they end up with a zero. If they're colluding, they're

203
00:10:54,920 --> 00:10:57,880
Speaker 1: doing a hell of a job because no industry in

204
00:10:57,920 --> 00:11:00,840
Speaker 1: California has been investigated more times than the oil industry

205
00:11:00,960 --> 00:11:05,000
Speaker 1: over the same issue high prices. Now this past year,

206
00:11:05,200 --> 00:11:10,120
Speaker 1: you've got the extra dollar in a quarter in California taxes.

207
00:11:11,320 --> 00:11:14,719
Speaker 1: Some analysts say it's actually a dollar fifty fifty now

208
00:11:15,080 --> 00:11:18,199
Speaker 1: because some of it is hidden taxes that are passed along.

209
00:11:18,240 --> 00:11:21,280
Speaker 1: So let's go to a buck fifty. At the height

210
00:11:21,320 --> 00:11:26,439
Speaker 1: of the the price issue last year, it was two sixty.

211
00:11:26,960 --> 00:11:30,080
Speaker 1: So where did that extra dollar ten come from? And

212
00:11:30,240 --> 00:11:35,120
Speaker 1: nobody knows, And they have been chasing this mystery surcharge

213
00:11:35,480 --> 00:11:38,920
Speaker 1: since at least twenty fifteen. The size of the mystery

214
00:11:39,080 --> 00:11:44,520
Speaker 1: search charge inflates and deflates. You know, often they'll say, oh,

215
00:11:44,640 --> 00:11:47,720
Speaker 1: maybe maybe it's twenty cents, and then suddenly you know

216
00:11:47,760 --> 00:11:49,960
Speaker 1: it was. It was a dollar ten during the summer,

217
00:11:50,440 --> 00:11:54,280
Speaker 1: and you've had all these professors and researchers and analysts

218
00:11:54,360 --> 00:11:56,760
Speaker 1: look at it, and they don't know because they said

219
00:11:56,880 --> 00:12:01,160
Speaker 1: the the oil refineries, though the oil companies that hump

220
00:12:01,200 --> 00:12:03,440
Speaker 1: out the oil. They're only one piece of the puzzle.

221
00:12:03,679 --> 00:12:06,120
Speaker 1: The oil then has to get refined, It then has

222
00:12:06,160 --> 00:12:10,559
Speaker 1: to be distributed, then it is sold by retail gas stations,

223
00:12:11,679 --> 00:12:16,960
Speaker 1: and all along the way additions to the price are made. Now,

224
00:12:16,960 --> 00:12:21,280
Speaker 1: why would all the companies in California have the same

225
00:12:21,800 --> 00:12:25,800
Speaker 1: price increase? Mystery price increase? How come competition does it?

226
00:12:25,880 --> 00:12:28,360
Speaker 1: If there is like some fat, some room in there

227
00:12:28,360 --> 00:12:31,800
Speaker 1: to cut Normally, one company would would say, okay, ours

228
00:12:31,800 --> 00:12:33,920
Speaker 1: is gonna be ten cents less or twenty cents less,

229
00:12:34,280 --> 00:12:37,080
Speaker 1: and we'll make it up on volume. We'll have long

230
00:12:37,120 --> 00:12:40,200
Speaker 1: lines at our stations. That's not happening. And that's why

231
00:12:40,400 --> 00:12:42,040
Speaker 1: some of these bobs are just saying, well, it must

232
00:12:42,080 --> 00:12:45,480
Speaker 1: be collusion. Well then how are they doing it. If

233
00:12:45,520 --> 00:12:47,920
Speaker 1: you collude, you got to communicate with each other. So

234
00:12:47,960 --> 00:12:52,800
Speaker 1: there's got to be phone records, texts, memos. How many

235
00:12:52,800 --> 00:12:57,200
Speaker 1: times we've been over this. The policies of California have

236
00:12:57,320 --> 00:13:00,320
Speaker 1: been against the oil companies, so the oil companies have

237
00:13:00,400 --> 00:13:02,880
Speaker 1: kind of cut back. How many times we told you

238
00:13:03,000 --> 00:13:05,480
Speaker 1: the drop in the number of refineries over the last

239
00:13:05,480 --> 00:13:08,200
Speaker 1: several decades, this is going to lead to a smaller

240
00:13:08,240 --> 00:13:12,320
Speaker 1: supply but whatever they can sell, Yeah, that drives up

241
00:13:12,320 --> 00:13:13,920
Speaker 1: the price when you have a smaller supply, so they're

242
00:13:13,920 --> 00:13:15,559
Speaker 1: going to make pretty good profits off of it. It's

243
00:13:15,559 --> 00:13:18,480
Speaker 1: really pretty simple. But it's all done on purpose. Which

244
00:13:18,600 --> 00:13:20,880
Speaker 1: that's what they don't tell you. In Sacramento, Newson doesn't

245
00:13:20,920 --> 00:13:23,199
Speaker 1: tell you that. None of them won't and they want

246
00:13:23,200 --> 00:13:25,200
Speaker 1: you out of your gas powered car. And this really

247
00:13:25,240 --> 00:13:27,440
Speaker 1: doesn't bother them, but they have to look like they're

248
00:13:27,480 --> 00:13:32,959
Speaker 1: doing something for people. Another legislature said, I like this one. Well,

249
00:13:32,960 --> 00:13:35,840
Speaker 1: this could have unintended consequences, and I said, yet, dah,

250
00:13:35,840 --> 00:13:39,000
Speaker 1: even higher gas prices. Right, if you start taxing the

251
00:13:39,000 --> 00:13:41,719
Speaker 1: windfall profits of the oil companies, they're gonna try to

252
00:13:41,720 --> 00:13:44,120
Speaker 1: make some of that back. If you tack the tax

253
00:13:44,160 --> 00:13:46,559
Speaker 1: the profits, say by ten percent, that ten percent is

254
00:13:46,559 --> 00:13:48,439
Speaker 1: going to be at the pump, because all the oil

255
00:13:48,440 --> 00:13:51,240
Speaker 1: companies that serve California are going to be attacked in

256
00:13:51,280 --> 00:13:54,240
Speaker 1: the same proportionate way, so you will drive up the price.

257
00:13:57,360 --> 00:14:01,800
Speaker 1: It's a circle. It's ridiculous, and they are banking on

258
00:14:01,840 --> 00:14:04,200
Speaker 1: the ignorance of the public, and the public is to

259
00:14:04,240 --> 00:14:07,200
Speaker 1: blame because they're so ignorant. They do polling. It's like, wow,

260
00:14:07,200 --> 00:14:10,080
Speaker 1: I sixty of the California would I would love to

261
00:14:10,800 --> 00:14:14,520
Speaker 1: do a surcharge tax on the oil companies. You know

262
00:14:14,559 --> 00:14:19,760
Speaker 1: surf plus profits. Well, you don't know that they are

263
00:14:19,800 --> 00:14:22,720
Speaker 1: engaging in any kind of gouging, and you have no

264
00:14:22,800 --> 00:14:26,840
Speaker 1: way of finding out. You are just primed to hate

265
00:14:26,840 --> 00:14:32,960
Speaker 1: the oil companies. But don't I don't understand hatred of

266
00:14:32,960 --> 00:14:37,400
Speaker 1: oil companies. Oil companies, gas companies are great. Look what

267
00:14:37,560 --> 00:14:43,240
Speaker 1: happens when the price of energy goes up too far

268
00:14:43,480 --> 00:14:46,960
Speaker 1: too quickly. People start to cut back their usage. What

269
00:14:47,120 --> 00:14:50,320
Speaker 1: happens now they're cold in their home, or they're too

270
00:14:50,360 --> 00:14:53,000
Speaker 1: hot in their home, or they can't drive as much

271
00:14:53,040 --> 00:14:56,800
Speaker 1: as they want. So I understand being upset about the prices,

272
00:14:57,040 --> 00:15:00,880
Speaker 1: but there's an innate anger at oil company. He's for existing,

273
00:15:01,480 --> 00:15:06,800
Speaker 1: and that's ridiculous. You cannot have modern life without burning

274
00:15:06,800 --> 00:15:11,120
Speaker 1: fossil fuels. We will never have modern life without burning

275
00:15:11,160 --> 00:15:13,760
Speaker 1: fossil fuels. It will just simply never happen. And I

276
00:15:13,840 --> 00:15:16,800
Speaker 1: get so tired of these people who lived in these

277
00:15:16,840 --> 00:15:21,000
Speaker 1: imaginary worlds. It's no such thing. What I sense is

278
00:15:21,040 --> 00:15:23,600
Speaker 1: they're going through the motions. Because Newsom called for this,

279
00:15:23,720 --> 00:15:26,520
Speaker 1: he made a big public display of this, so they're

280
00:15:26,520 --> 00:15:28,760
Speaker 1: gonna have their hearings, but they're not gonna do anything.

281
00:15:29,200 --> 00:15:32,640
Speaker 1: In fact, yesterday he appeared at a Tesla event and

282
00:15:32,680 --> 00:15:35,120
Speaker 1: didn't even mention the hearings. He's not going to testify

283
00:15:35,120 --> 00:15:37,520
Speaker 1: at these. Sometimes governors do show up and put their

284
00:15:37,520 --> 00:15:40,240
Speaker 1: two cents in because they want something he doesn't. He

285
00:15:40,360 --> 00:15:44,080
Speaker 1: did this to once again raise his profile nationally, because

286
00:15:44,120 --> 00:15:46,880
Speaker 1: this was all the talk last fall high gas prices,

287
00:15:46,920 --> 00:15:50,160
Speaker 1: particularly California gas prices, and now it's not quite the

288
00:15:50,240 --> 00:15:53,640
Speaker 1: talk anymore. In case he's moved on this another shiny object,

289
00:15:53,680 --> 00:15:55,880
Speaker 1: he's a preening virtue signal to do you think he

290
00:15:56,040 --> 00:16:00,840
Speaker 1: knows how oil is extracted on the ground and how

291
00:16:00,840 --> 00:16:04,200
Speaker 1: it's processed and refined and how it's shipped. Did you

292
00:16:04,200 --> 00:16:08,440
Speaker 1: think he knows anything about it? Most of these guys,

293
00:16:08,520 --> 00:16:11,480
Speaker 1: they don't even understand how a fast food joint runs.

294
00:16:11,920 --> 00:16:15,360
Speaker 1: Otherwise they never would have mandated that commission with the

295
00:16:15,440 --> 00:16:19,680
Speaker 1: high salaries guaranteed to employees. If you don't know how

296
00:16:19,680 --> 00:16:22,960
Speaker 1: a McDonald's run, I don't think you're going to handle xign.

297
00:16:25,760 --> 00:16:27,680
Speaker 1: They have no interest in this, then most of these

298
00:16:27,680 --> 00:16:33,880
Speaker 1: are not business people, especially on the Democrats side. Yeah,

299
00:16:33,920 --> 00:16:37,080
Speaker 1: There was even somebody that testified yesterday and said, well,

300
00:16:37,120 --> 00:16:38,720
Speaker 1: you know, you may want to look at other parts

301
00:16:38,720 --> 00:16:41,200
Speaker 1: of the supply chain, not just the refiner raies, but

302
00:16:41,280 --> 00:16:43,360
Speaker 1: you got the gas staysons themselves. He could play a

303
00:16:43,400 --> 00:16:46,640
Speaker 1: larger role in prices. And look who else piped up?

304
00:16:47,000 --> 00:16:48,880
Speaker 1: Sefron Borenstein, who I guess last time we have him

305
00:16:48,920 --> 00:16:50,960
Speaker 1: on the show, he hung up. He's the UC Berkeley professor.

306
00:16:52,000 --> 00:16:55,120
Speaker 1: He's a part of the state's power grid operator. He's

307
00:16:55,120 --> 00:16:57,960
Speaker 1: the one that has come up with this mystery gasoline

308
00:16:57,960 --> 00:17:00,920
Speaker 1: search for eight years of the years. Okay, yeah, but

309
00:17:01,080 --> 00:17:03,200
Speaker 1: I could ever anybody else could have told you that

310
00:17:03,920 --> 00:17:05,480
Speaker 1: all all you have to do is look at the

311
00:17:05,520 --> 00:17:08,359
Speaker 1: price of gas and all the other states. It's online,

312
00:17:08,680 --> 00:17:11,920
Speaker 1: and you see California is way above everyone else. So

313
00:17:11,960 --> 00:17:15,119
Speaker 1: we all know he doesn't have any special information. His

314
00:17:15,240 --> 00:17:19,320
Speaker 1: job now for eight years has been failing to explain it,

315
00:17:20,119 --> 00:17:23,520
Speaker 1: all his research, all his expertise. Is it really that hard?

316
00:17:24,840 --> 00:17:27,160
Speaker 1: Is it? Now? They're talking about, Oh, it's complex, there's

317
00:17:27,200 --> 00:17:31,360
Speaker 1: contracts between refiners and retailers. Well, that's your other details

318
00:17:31,359 --> 00:17:33,280
Speaker 1: in this. Now we need to study this closer. So

319
00:17:33,720 --> 00:17:35,600
Speaker 1: what they're trying to do is they're gonna punt, They're

320
00:17:35,640 --> 00:17:37,240
Speaker 1: gonna kick this down the road and say we need

321
00:17:37,280 --> 00:17:39,360
Speaker 1: more study and then get rid of this. They've never

322
00:17:39,400 --> 00:17:42,680
Speaker 1: done anything because they can't find Well, if the oil

323
00:17:42,680 --> 00:17:45,840
Speaker 1: companis are doing something, they can't find it. So that

324
00:17:45,920 --> 00:17:49,320
Speaker 1: means the oil company executives are much smarter than the legislators.

325
00:17:49,720 --> 00:17:52,440
Speaker 1: There's a surprise. If you operate in a place where

326
00:17:52,480 --> 00:17:54,639
Speaker 1: your product's not welcome, are you really going to go

327
00:17:54,680 --> 00:17:58,800
Speaker 1: out of your way to expand the product more to supply? No? No,

328
00:17:58,880 --> 00:18:02,080
Speaker 1: And it's just supply problem that we have. All Right,

329
00:18:02,119 --> 00:18:04,560
Speaker 1: we got more coming up, John and Ken Cafe. I Ay,

330
00:18:04,560 --> 00:18:07,400
Speaker 1: I'm six forty. We're live everywhere the iHeartRadio app. Oh yeah,

331
00:18:07,440 --> 00:18:08,640
Speaker 1: we got a lot to get to. Of course, we'll

332
00:18:08,640 --> 00:18:12,359
Speaker 1: get to the Harvey Weinstein sentencing which came down this afternoon.

333
00:18:12,920 --> 00:18:14,280
Speaker 1: Blake Trolley, you'll have it for us a half to

334
00:18:14,320 --> 00:18:17,680
Speaker 1: two o'clock. In the next segment, we're going to talk

335
00:18:17,720 --> 00:18:20,560
Speaker 1: about why so many men in their twenties are choosing

336
00:18:20,600 --> 00:18:23,600
Speaker 1: to be single. Yeah, it has something to do with

337
00:18:24,480 --> 00:18:26,800
Speaker 1: the stuff that's online that they can enjoy themselves with.

338
00:18:27,240 --> 00:18:29,520
Speaker 1: But there's more to it than that. A whole generation

339
00:18:29,560 --> 00:18:34,200
Speaker 1: of in cells. Yeah, I guess kind of. Although that

340
00:18:34,320 --> 00:18:37,399
Speaker 1: term is involuntarily celibate. It sounds like some of these

341
00:18:37,480 --> 00:18:43,280
Speaker 1: men surveyed or content with right plugging themselves to porn

342
00:18:43,359 --> 00:18:46,240
Speaker 1: and otherwise the games, and they don't have to talk

343
00:18:46,240 --> 00:18:48,720
Speaker 1: to women. That's that's the goal of Benny, any men,

344
00:18:49,160 --> 00:18:53,240
Speaker 1: to get the pleasure without actually talking, right, Right, even

345
00:18:53,240 --> 00:18:56,600
Speaker 1: though you discovered yesterday that did you say coke products

346
00:18:56,840 --> 00:19:00,800
Speaker 1: increase your testosterone and testicles? Yes, your test I just

347
00:19:00,840 --> 00:19:04,280
Speaker 1: saw another art doing double dosing today. Huh um. You

348
00:19:04,359 --> 00:19:06,840
Speaker 1: know I only had one small can. Usually I have

349
00:19:06,920 --> 00:19:10,919
Speaker 1: the big twenty ouns. Yeah, but I got another one.

350
00:19:10,960 --> 00:19:13,000
Speaker 1: I got a bottle in my in my bag. Heres.

351
00:19:13,000 --> 00:19:16,000
Speaker 1: Oh my god, I'm gonna book myself up later. I

352
00:19:16,000 --> 00:19:18,160
Speaker 1: can't figure out how that study makes sense. And you're

353
00:19:18,160 --> 00:19:20,240
Speaker 1: sure it isn't just random that they studied all these

354
00:19:20,280 --> 00:19:22,359
Speaker 1: coke drinkers and they noticed. I don't know, I didn't

355
00:19:22,359 --> 00:19:24,960
Speaker 1: do the study. I know. That's just how can you

356
00:19:25,000 --> 00:19:27,399
Speaker 1: resist that headline? Right? Somebody made a study. It's like, oh,

357
00:19:27,480 --> 00:19:29,600
Speaker 1: look at that coke gives your big testicles? Yeah, right,

358
00:19:29,960 --> 00:19:32,520
Speaker 1: right of the New York Post the bubbles. You think

359
00:19:34,400 --> 00:19:37,159
Speaker 1: the carbonation If you listen closely, you can hear the

360
00:19:37,200 --> 00:19:42,960
Speaker 1: cracklings get bubbly. All right. Well, you know we've talked

361
00:19:42,960 --> 00:19:45,520
Speaker 1: about this story in the past when it came to

362
00:19:45,880 --> 00:19:49,760
Speaker 1: ousting the Los Angeles County District Attorney George Gascoonne, which

363
00:19:49,760 --> 00:19:52,720
Speaker 1: of course did not happen in a failed recall at

364
00:19:52,800 --> 00:19:54,399
Speaker 1: temp last year. I don't know where that is now.

365
00:19:54,440 --> 00:19:56,680
Speaker 1: Remember they were challenging that. Yeah, they were going to

366
00:19:56,760 --> 00:19:59,960
Speaker 1: courts and they were demanding a big investigation, and everybody's

367
00:20:00,080 --> 00:20:02,600
Speaker 1: gone silent for months now. Yeah, because they were claiming

368
00:20:02,640 --> 00:20:04,960
Speaker 1: that the registrar was not really letting them see the

369
00:20:05,000 --> 00:20:07,280
Speaker 1: whole process and was trying to hide what they were doing.

370
00:20:07,280 --> 00:20:09,040
Speaker 1: But which I'm sure it's true, but I don't know what.

371
00:20:09,440 --> 00:20:11,199
Speaker 1: I don't know what they're doing about it. I know,

372
00:20:11,400 --> 00:20:14,520
Speaker 1: because it'll just be what about a year and ten

373
00:20:14,560 --> 00:20:17,040
Speaker 1: months from now, we'll be voting on Gascone again. He's

374
00:20:17,119 --> 00:20:20,399
Speaker 1: up for reelection November twenty twenty four, and I'm sure

375
00:20:20,440 --> 00:20:24,200
Speaker 1: he'll run again. Well. One of the cases involved a

376
00:20:24,240 --> 00:20:29,000
Speaker 1: teenager who shot to death his sixteen year old girlfriend

377
00:20:29,040 --> 00:20:32,720
Speaker 1: and her sister and then set the apartment on fire.

378
00:20:33,320 --> 00:20:36,320
Speaker 1: This happened in twenty eighteen in the Westchester neighborhood of

379
00:20:36,359 --> 00:20:39,800
Speaker 1: Los Angeles, and the back and forth yere was whether

380
00:20:39,880 --> 00:20:44,119
Speaker 1: or not to try him as an adult. Now, apparently

381
00:20:44,160 --> 00:20:47,879
Speaker 1: they passed legislation in Sacramento in twenty twenty two to

382
00:20:48,160 --> 00:20:53,320
Speaker 1: raise the bar to make it much more difficult to

383
00:20:53,359 --> 00:20:58,480
Speaker 1: try juveniles as adults. Again, this is all part of

384
00:20:58,480 --> 00:21:01,320
Speaker 1: the desire to make sure that nobody ends up in prison.

385
00:21:01,720 --> 00:21:04,560
Speaker 1: Nobody ends up in jail, So let's figure out another

386
00:21:04,600 --> 00:21:07,360
Speaker 1: way to shut a door. And one of those doors

387
00:21:07,520 --> 00:21:11,359
Speaker 1: was let's put more juveniles in the juvenile system, matter

388
00:21:11,400 --> 00:21:13,840
Speaker 1: how heinous the crime. So they just get one of

389
00:21:13,880 --> 00:21:16,359
Speaker 1: those camp sentences and they're done by twenty four And

390
00:21:16,480 --> 00:21:20,840
Speaker 1: this guy, who the La Times will not publish his name, cowards.

391
00:21:21,720 --> 00:21:25,359
Speaker 1: He was seventeen years old and eleven months at the

392
00:21:25,400 --> 00:21:28,760
Speaker 1: time he did the killings. Now, this was a Jackie

393
00:21:28,800 --> 00:21:32,480
Speaker 1: Lacy case for a good long time because he was

394
00:21:32,560 --> 00:21:37,240
Speaker 1: arrested in twenty eighteen, and Jackie Lacy served as the

395
00:21:37,320 --> 00:21:40,399
Speaker 1: daun till twenty December twenty twenty, so there was plenty

396
00:21:40,400 --> 00:21:46,080
Speaker 1: of time to prosecute him. I don't know what happened here,

397
00:21:47,320 --> 00:21:50,160
Speaker 1: but they didn't even it's called a transfer motion where

398
00:21:50,160 --> 00:21:53,320
Speaker 1: you transfer a juvenile to adult court and you have

399
00:21:53,359 --> 00:21:57,080
Speaker 1: to convince the judge that he needs to be tried

400
00:21:57,119 --> 00:21:59,280
Speaker 1: as an adult. And I don't know she sat on

401
00:21:59,359 --> 00:22:02,480
Speaker 1: it for two years. Yeah, it was sixteen year old

402
00:22:02,560 --> 00:22:07,200
Speaker 1: Sierra Brown and her sister Eunich Atkins who were murdered

403
00:22:07,240 --> 00:22:10,800
Speaker 1: by this person who was a month short of being eighteen.

404
00:22:11,960 --> 00:22:14,959
Speaker 1: You're right. They initially sought to charge him as an adult,

405
00:22:16,040 --> 00:22:18,399
Speaker 1: but a transfer motion was not heard by the time

406
00:22:18,960 --> 00:22:23,680
Speaker 1: Gascone took over from Lacy, so that case was left

407
00:22:23,680 --> 00:22:27,200
Speaker 1: on his desk and he decided that he's going to

408
00:22:27,280 --> 00:22:31,240
Speaker 1: have this special committee because of all the blowback over

409
00:22:31,280 --> 00:22:34,280
Speaker 1: his policies, one of which was he really doesn't like

410
00:22:34,400 --> 00:22:38,120
Speaker 1: to go hard on juveniles. He thinks he made this long.

411
00:22:38,800 --> 00:22:43,960
Speaker 1: The studies show that the brain is undeveloped, and these

412
00:22:44,040 --> 00:22:46,600
Speaker 1: they don't know what they're doing. So, I mean, even

413
00:22:47,560 --> 00:22:50,920
Speaker 1: what was really chilling about this story because I had

414
00:22:50,960 --> 00:22:55,600
Speaker 1: not seen this before, but apparently a Deputy DA by

415
00:22:55,600 --> 00:22:59,600
Speaker 1: the name of Courtney Dyer said that, well, in these

416
00:22:59,680 --> 00:23:03,160
Speaker 1: killing this teen one month short of eighteen years old,

417
00:23:03,200 --> 00:23:06,639
Speaker 1: showed sophistication. He may have used a pillow as a

418
00:23:06,680 --> 00:23:09,800
Speaker 1: silencer when he shot them to death, and he thought

419
00:23:09,800 --> 00:23:11,920
Speaker 1: of the idea a set of fire to try to

420
00:23:12,000 --> 00:23:15,480
Speaker 1: hide the evidence. See to me, you've heard me talk

421
00:23:15,520 --> 00:23:19,199
Speaker 1: about there is pure evil out there. Yeah, well that's

422
00:23:19,320 --> 00:23:22,480
Speaker 1: that's why you should only look at the result here.

423
00:23:24,720 --> 00:23:27,720
Speaker 1: You know, you could do a research study, a classroom

424
00:23:27,800 --> 00:23:30,439
Speaker 1: a project to try to find out what in the

425
00:23:30,520 --> 00:23:34,040
Speaker 1: brain makes someone kill, But that should have nothing to

426
00:23:34,080 --> 00:23:38,320
Speaker 1: do with his sentence. The sentence should be death preferably

427
00:23:38,400 --> 00:23:41,840
Speaker 1: or life in prison at minimum. And and exactly how

428
00:23:41,880 --> 00:23:45,280
Speaker 1: his brain got him there to the killing is kind

429
00:23:45,280 --> 00:23:47,280
Speaker 1: of a fun parlor game to play, but it's it

430
00:23:47,480 --> 00:23:50,040
Speaker 1: should have no relevance on the sand same But but

431
00:23:50,119 --> 00:23:53,960
Speaker 1: the judge fully went into trying to analyze what how

432
00:23:54,040 --> 00:23:59,280
Speaker 1: this guy's brain functions. Yeah, we'll give you the sad

433
00:23:59,359 --> 00:24:02,840
Speaker 1: side of that. So, according to Courtney Dyer, he also

434
00:24:03,000 --> 00:24:05,840
Speaker 1: arrived at the scene of the fire hours later and

435
00:24:05,880 --> 00:24:11,920
Speaker 1: pretended to mourn them and then gave false leads to detectives. Well,

436
00:24:11,920 --> 00:24:15,360
Speaker 1: he must have been an obvious suspect right away. Yeah,

437
00:24:15,560 --> 00:24:20,160
Speaker 1: showing up at the fire and volunteering information to the detectives,

438
00:24:20,920 --> 00:24:22,960
Speaker 1: Like the detectives know, a guy who does that is

439
00:24:22,960 --> 00:24:26,800
Speaker 1: probably the one who who committed the crimes. She said

440
00:24:26,840 --> 00:24:30,919
Speaker 1: that in four years in juvenile confinement, he's shown no

441
00:24:31,200 --> 00:24:36,359
Speaker 1: changes in his behavior. Three parents have lost their daughters,

442
00:24:36,440 --> 00:24:39,160
Speaker 1: three children have lost their mothers. There's a five year

443
00:24:39,160 --> 00:24:41,199
Speaker 1: old who said she wanted to go to heaven to

444
00:24:41,280 --> 00:24:45,639
Speaker 1: be with her mother. Of course, they tried to argue

445
00:24:45,640 --> 00:24:50,240
Speaker 1: that he showed market improvement. He'd been smoking marijuana on

446
00:24:50,280 --> 00:24:53,520
Speaker 1: a daily basis from the age of twelve, that he's

447
00:24:53,560 --> 00:24:58,200
Speaker 1: responding well to services and education. As I mentioned, all

448
00:24:58,240 --> 00:25:00,240
Speaker 1: of this is because of bill passed in twenty twenty

449
00:25:00,280 --> 00:25:04,040
Speaker 1: two requires prosecutors to prove by clear and convincing evidence

450
00:25:04,320 --> 00:25:08,000
Speaker 1: that the juvenile would not be amenable to rehab in

451
00:25:08,119 --> 00:25:11,800
Speaker 1: juvenile custody. And I guess the judge decided that they

452
00:25:11,800 --> 00:25:14,119
Speaker 1: couldn't prove it. Well, here's the thing. This kid in

453
00:25:14,160 --> 00:25:17,480
Speaker 1: the juvenile system. Here's the tride, and this is the

454
00:25:17,480 --> 00:25:20,760
Speaker 1: trick the legislators play. They say, oh, no, you can

455
00:25:21,119 --> 00:25:24,600
Speaker 1: try a teenager on adult crimes. You just have to

456
00:25:24,640 --> 00:25:27,560
Speaker 1: meet the standards. And the standards are so high or

457
00:25:27,600 --> 00:25:31,600
Speaker 1: so complex that it rarely happens in real life. And

458
00:25:31,640 --> 00:25:34,040
Speaker 1: that's the trick they play, because you'll say, ah, you're

459
00:25:34,080 --> 00:25:36,480
Speaker 1: just you're just let everybody out of prison, right, you

460
00:25:36,480 --> 00:25:39,200
Speaker 1: won't prosecute anybody. Oh no, no, not that that's not true.

461
00:25:39,240 --> 00:25:42,320
Speaker 1: We actually have a procedure so you can prosecute teenagers

462
00:25:42,320 --> 00:25:44,879
Speaker 1: if necessary. And then you go through the details and

463
00:25:45,000 --> 00:25:49,640
Speaker 1: it's like, well it's it's in practicality, it's impossible because

464
00:25:50,040 --> 00:25:53,160
Speaker 1: if if you can't try this guy's an adult, he's

465
00:25:53,160 --> 00:25:57,000
Speaker 1: a month short of eighteen, and he kills these two

466
00:25:57,040 --> 00:26:02,520
Speaker 1: girls and then sets the house on fire. Ah, what

467
00:26:03,800 --> 00:26:07,080
Speaker 1: that's evil. You're looking at someone who's probably going to

468
00:26:07,160 --> 00:26:09,800
Speaker 1: do this again when you release him. Of course, he's

469
00:26:09,840 --> 00:26:12,120
Speaker 1: someone who should be locked up for the rest of

470
00:26:12,119 --> 00:26:16,240
Speaker 1: his natural life. What there's really no question about it.

471
00:26:16,560 --> 00:26:21,239
Speaker 1: Now there's judge here, Jay Christopher Christopher Smith is an

472
00:26:21,240 --> 00:26:25,240
Speaker 1: Alley County spirit or a judge. Listen to him twist

473
00:26:25,280 --> 00:26:28,119
Speaker 1: himself into a pretzel as to why he's not going

474
00:26:28,200 --> 00:26:32,360
Speaker 1: to prosecute this guy in the adults as as an adult,

475
00:26:33,280 --> 00:26:37,879
Speaker 1: Smith said, the prosecutors failed to put forth any evidence

476
00:26:38,359 --> 00:26:44,159
Speaker 1: of what the teen's rehabilitive needs were. What evidence of

477
00:26:44,160 --> 00:26:48,639
Speaker 1: what the killer needs to rehabilitate. Well, there isn't anything

478
00:26:48,680 --> 00:26:53,399
Speaker 1: that's going to rehabilitate him because he's a psychotic h

479
00:26:54,520 --> 00:26:57,960
Speaker 1: and Judge Smith said the teen had cognitive abnormalities in

480
00:26:58,000 --> 00:27:02,200
Speaker 1: his frontal lobe an IQ low enough to raise questions

481
00:27:02,200 --> 00:27:06,480
Speaker 1: about his intellectual function when he was first taken into custody. Well,

482
00:27:06,520 --> 00:27:09,040
Speaker 1: what does that matter. That's all the more reason to

483
00:27:09,119 --> 00:27:11,960
Speaker 1: lock him up. If he's got a damaged frontal lobe

484
00:27:12,359 --> 00:27:16,120
Speaker 1: and such a low IQ that he doesn't really understand

485
00:27:17,640 --> 00:27:21,439
Speaker 1: the significance of his actions, why would you want that

486
00:27:21,560 --> 00:27:25,320
Speaker 1: running around the streets. A patient officer wrote a report

487
00:27:25,400 --> 00:27:27,600
Speaker 1: suggesting this team should be tried as an adult, but

488
00:27:27,640 --> 00:27:30,639
Speaker 1: the judge swayed that aside too, as he ignored his

489
00:27:30,720 --> 00:27:34,000
Speaker 1: cognitive issues. So the judge is another one of these guys. Okay,

490
00:27:34,040 --> 00:27:37,280
Speaker 1: they're all progressives. They're always going to find a reason

491
00:27:37,760 --> 00:27:41,520
Speaker 1: to let a kid go. They're always going to they'll

492
00:27:41,560 --> 00:27:44,679
Speaker 1: make it sound complicated, like they've done thorough analysis. The

493
00:27:44,720 --> 00:27:48,800
Speaker 1: truth is, if it's a preordained decision. So, if I'm correct,

494
00:27:49,200 --> 00:27:52,200
Speaker 1: going through the juvenile system, this murderer will be out

495
00:27:52,240 --> 00:27:55,639
Speaker 1: when he's twenty five. Yeah, he's already I think twenty two. Right.

496
00:27:55,680 --> 00:27:57,560
Speaker 1: This happened in twenty eighteen, when he was just short

497
00:27:57,560 --> 00:28:00,240
Speaker 1: of eighteen years old, so yes, so he will be

498
00:28:00,400 --> 00:28:05,320
Speaker 1: out within a few years. Yeah, they is a defense

499
00:28:05,359 --> 00:28:07,440
Speaker 1: attorney said he only reads it a fourth grade level.

500
00:28:08,240 --> 00:28:12,560
Speaker 1: Well that's one hundred, that's hundreds of thousands of LAUSD students. Yeah,

501
00:28:12,600 --> 00:28:14,880
Speaker 1: there's a lot of people that after they grab fourth

502
00:28:15,480 --> 00:28:17,560
Speaker 1: fourth fourth grade level is standard these days, So I

503
00:28:17,600 --> 00:28:20,600
Speaker 1: don't know why that's got all right, We're coming up

504
00:28:20,640 --> 00:28:23,199
Speaker 1: Johnny ken caf I am six forty live everywhere. The

505
00:28:23,240 --> 00:28:28,040
Speaker 1: iHeartRadio Act trending video today is this eighty five year

506
00:28:28,040 --> 00:28:30,199
Speaker 1: old woman walking their dog in Florida. Have you seen it?

507
00:28:30,960 --> 00:28:32,919
Speaker 1: She's up against one of these like these little lakes

508
00:28:33,080 --> 00:28:35,120
Speaker 1: swamps that they have there in an alligator just comes

509
00:28:35,160 --> 00:28:37,639
Speaker 1: pouncing out of the water, grabs a dog, and eventually

510
00:28:37,720 --> 00:28:42,880
Speaker 1: kills the woman too. No, no, no, all they're showing

511
00:28:43,000 --> 00:28:45,560
Speaker 1: is the moment the alligator pounces out of the water,

512
00:28:45,720 --> 00:28:47,240
Speaker 1: I know. And then they will not even they will

513
00:28:47,240 --> 00:28:49,400
Speaker 1: not show her get it. They freeze the frame. They

514
00:28:49,480 --> 00:28:51,760
Speaker 1: freeze the frame, so they're watching the same she takes

515
00:28:51,760 --> 00:28:54,560
Speaker 1: two steps and here I heard about that. Why would

516
00:28:54,560 --> 00:28:56,720
Speaker 1: you want to see that? I mean, I don't want

517
00:28:56,760 --> 00:29:01,800
Speaker 1: to see it, but ten foot long. Who took this footage?

518
00:29:01,840 --> 00:29:05,360
Speaker 1: Inside Edition obtained it. A woman's name was Glory, a

519
00:29:05,520 --> 00:29:08,760
Speaker 1: surge security camera. Yeah, it looks like how security cameras.

520
00:29:08,920 --> 00:29:11,560
Speaker 1: So it might be your right backyard. Yeah, you know,

521
00:29:11,680 --> 00:29:13,240
Speaker 1: my parents us to live in one of these places

522
00:29:13,240 --> 00:29:16,479
Speaker 1: where this is a retirement community called Spanish Lakes Fairways.

523
00:29:16,480 --> 00:29:18,160
Speaker 1: Matter of fact, Fort Pierce isn't far from where my

524
00:29:18,160 --> 00:29:20,720
Speaker 1: parents used to live. And they had like a view

525
00:29:20,720 --> 00:29:22,680
Speaker 1: of a little lake out their backyard. And they did

526
00:29:22,680 --> 00:29:24,800
Speaker 1: have alligators too. I mean Florida is followed them. The

527
00:29:25,200 --> 00:29:27,400
Speaker 1: alligators live on the side of the road. Here's something

528
00:29:27,440 --> 00:29:30,880
Speaker 1: to be terrified of. Yeah, they're on the side of

529
00:29:30,920 --> 00:29:34,760
Speaker 1: the road in ditches. You know, any any trenches or

530
00:29:34,800 --> 00:29:39,120
Speaker 1: puddles along along the edge. Would never live in Florida

531
00:29:39,320 --> 00:29:44,520
Speaker 1: just because of that. Now, there was a in a

532
00:29:44,520 --> 00:29:48,640
Speaker 1: neighborhood near where my in laws lived. There was a

533
00:29:48,640 --> 00:29:50,560
Speaker 1: new development going up. My wife and I went to

534
00:29:50,600 --> 00:29:53,880
Speaker 1: look and some of the homes were right across from

535
00:29:54,080 --> 00:29:56,600
Speaker 1: the pond, the pond, and we were debating back and forth,

536
00:29:56,640 --> 00:29:59,880
Speaker 1: would you buy the house across the street from the pond,

537
00:30:00,040 --> 00:30:03,080
Speaker 1: because that's that's exactly where alligators will live. And you

538
00:30:03,120 --> 00:30:06,480
Speaker 1: can't see them until the moment you walk by, no,

539
00:30:07,360 --> 00:30:12,400
Speaker 1: and then suddenly rising out and they move fast. They

540
00:30:12,520 --> 00:30:15,920
Speaker 1: move incredibly fast because they are inclusibly quick. Right, there's

541
00:30:15,920 --> 00:30:17,800
Speaker 1: a state park that we go to down down the

542
00:30:18,000 --> 00:30:21,800
Speaker 1: near Sarasota called Myaka Park, and and and you can

543
00:30:21,880 --> 00:30:25,080
Speaker 1: see the alliators there. They're sunning themselves on rocks. They're

544
00:30:25,080 --> 00:30:27,080
Speaker 1: just bobbing around in the water. When one of them

545
00:30:27,080 --> 00:30:31,160
Speaker 1: gets going though, you can't believe the speed. And then

546
00:30:31,200 --> 00:30:34,200
Speaker 1: they can leap and they open their jaws really wide

547
00:30:34,280 --> 00:30:38,360
Speaker 1: animal one bite like you ever, Definitely you're a one bite.

548
00:30:38,400 --> 00:30:42,040
Speaker 1: I can't even imagine. She should have let the dog go.

549
00:30:42,160 --> 00:30:44,240
Speaker 1: Apparently she tried to save the dog so it pulled

550
00:30:44,240 --> 00:30:46,360
Speaker 1: her underwater. She didn't think she was going to be

551
00:30:46,400 --> 00:30:52,600
Speaker 1: eaten by the alligator the dog. No, no, no, well,

552
00:30:52,680 --> 00:30:54,680
Speaker 1: I do not applaud what you would just I mean,

553
00:30:54,720 --> 00:30:56,920
Speaker 1: I'm trying. I did. I try to put myself in

554
00:30:57,040 --> 00:31:00,640
Speaker 1: that make a rational decision. I wouldn't be. I wouldn't be.

555
00:31:00,680 --> 00:31:02,920
Speaker 1: I'm not outfight an alligator. But I don't think you

556
00:31:03,080 --> 00:31:06,719
Speaker 1: think of that. It could always get another dog. Oh god, no,

557
00:31:06,920 --> 00:31:09,360
Speaker 1: that's out of your mind, Deborah Mark. This is how

558
00:31:09,360 --> 00:31:12,040
Speaker 1: you're going down ten I'm saying that if I'm in

559
00:31:12,080 --> 00:31:15,240
Speaker 1: that situation in the moment, my first impulse would be

560
00:31:15,280 --> 00:31:17,960
Speaker 1: to try and save my dog. I wouldn't think about

561
00:31:18,000 --> 00:31:21,120
Speaker 1: all the ramifications of there was pretty much left of

562
00:31:21,120 --> 00:31:23,040
Speaker 1: her once the alligator gets here in the jaws, but

563
00:31:23,120 --> 00:31:25,640
Speaker 1: I could chop her down into bits. You're not saving anything, Well,

564
00:31:25,680 --> 00:31:28,720
Speaker 1: I think that dog was That dog got away, see irrational,

565
00:31:28,800 --> 00:31:31,000
Speaker 1: No it didn't. She tried to get away. See the

566
00:31:31,040 --> 00:31:34,960
Speaker 1: irrational gene ends up dying out because irrational people don't

567
00:31:35,000 --> 00:31:38,520
Speaker 1: live on right and rational people they will continue to

568
00:31:38,600 --> 00:31:40,680
Speaker 1: wear you know, I'm ready for that exit bag. On

569
00:31:40,720 --> 00:31:43,560
Speaker 1: a daily basis, you could see the alligator coming for

570
00:31:43,600 --> 00:31:45,560
Speaker 1: like ten seconds. She should have just picked the dog

571
00:31:45,640 --> 00:31:48,520
Speaker 1: up and run. She's in her eighties. Oh, run as

572
00:31:48,520 --> 00:31:50,920
Speaker 1: fast as you can. I guess, I don't know, but

573
00:31:51,120 --> 00:31:53,080
Speaker 1: if you watched the video, she's literally staring at this

574
00:31:53,120 --> 00:31:55,920
Speaker 1: alligator going for ten seconds. Okay, Well, maybe that wasn't

575
00:31:55,920 --> 00:31:58,440
Speaker 1: the smartest thing today. So they're they're common, so they

576
00:31:58,440 --> 00:32:00,800
Speaker 1: don't always do this. So some people down there take

577
00:32:00,800 --> 00:32:03,080
Speaker 1: a passive approach. They don't think alligators are gonna know

578
00:32:03,120 --> 00:32:06,640
Speaker 1: they're wrong. Well, you're playing roulette. They caught this one.

579
00:32:06,680 --> 00:32:07,880
Speaker 1: I don't know what they're gonna do with it. I

580
00:32:07,880 --> 00:32:11,080
Speaker 1: see it's all tied up here. The little arms are

581
00:32:11,080 --> 00:32:13,280
Speaker 1: behind his back. It's kind of funny. It does look

582
00:32:13,320 --> 00:32:18,920
Speaker 1: like she was food. I don't think I gonna uthanize

583
00:32:18,960 --> 00:32:21,040
Speaker 1: it or just remove it to take it somewhere. Well,

584
00:32:21,080 --> 00:32:23,560
Speaker 1: I get them out of the yeah, yeah, yeah, no,

585
00:32:23,680 --> 00:32:28,560
Speaker 1: that's a barbecue. I had alligator. You did, Yeah you

586
00:32:28,600 --> 00:32:31,600
Speaker 1: really ate alligator? Well, I mean not raw out of

587
00:32:31,640 --> 00:32:35,080
Speaker 1: the pond, but yeah, they this this restaurant we were serving.

588
00:32:35,080 --> 00:32:40,320
Speaker 1: It was like a lunch sandwich. Oh god, that is disgusting.

589
00:32:41,520 --> 00:32:43,520
Speaker 1: It wasn't disgusting. I don't know what it was. What

590
00:32:43,560 --> 00:32:49,440
Speaker 1: did it taste like? I don't know, um, chicken. Everything

591
00:32:49,480 --> 00:32:52,280
Speaker 1: tastes like chicken. Nah, just it. I don't remember it

592
00:32:52,360 --> 00:32:56,200
Speaker 1: having a particular taste like. There was nothing distinctive about it.

593
00:32:56,240 --> 00:32:58,520
Speaker 1: I can't even if I wasn't a vegan, I would

594
00:32:58,640 --> 00:33:03,160
Speaker 1: never ever alligator. Oh my god, the alligator is very

595
00:33:03,160 --> 00:33:06,320
Speaker 1: happy to you. I'm sure that's it's not going to

596
00:33:06,360 --> 00:33:07,920
Speaker 1: get a chance, and you and you would, you would

597
00:33:07,920 --> 00:33:09,680
Speaker 1: sit there in his stomach, probably for a while. You

598
00:33:09,760 --> 00:33:12,080
Speaker 1: might even still be conscious if you look in the

599
00:33:12,080 --> 00:33:22,000
Speaker 1: inside right. Well, about sixty three percent of eighteen to

600
00:33:22,080 --> 00:33:25,880
Speaker 1: twenty nine year old men reported being alone in twenty

601
00:33:25,960 --> 00:33:28,280
Speaker 1: twenty two. That's a been big increase from just a

602
00:33:28,280 --> 00:33:31,920
Speaker 1: few years earlier. Only thirty four percent of women in

603
00:33:31,960 --> 00:33:35,400
Speaker 1: the same age group reported being single. How does that work, then?

604
00:33:35,440 --> 00:33:39,040
Speaker 1: How do they pair off? Women marry older guys or well,

605
00:33:39,080 --> 00:33:42,160
Speaker 1: it's not just being married, it's being in. Yeah, but

606
00:33:42,200 --> 00:33:47,960
Speaker 1: they're attracted to older guys they moved in years older. Yeah,

607
00:33:48,000 --> 00:33:52,000
Speaker 1: because because those guys are are settled, they're in their career,

608
00:33:52,040 --> 00:33:55,640
Speaker 1: they're making some money that they offer a good life.

609
00:33:55,920 --> 00:33:58,920
Speaker 1: Most women are not interested in guys their own age,

610
00:33:59,560 --> 00:34:02,920
Speaker 1: especially when you're in your early mid twenties even late twenties,

611
00:34:02,920 --> 00:34:06,000
Speaker 1: because guys are goofs. Yeah. Well, guys just want to

612
00:34:06,000 --> 00:34:10,480
Speaker 1: go about drinking and screw ran and they're not marriage.

613
00:34:10,680 --> 00:34:14,960
Speaker 1: No man should get married before thirty. I'm sure it's

614
00:34:14,960 --> 00:34:17,680
Speaker 1: not about marriage. It's about relationships. And this story is

615
00:34:17,719 --> 00:34:22,360
Speaker 1: wondering why. But these men are not bound to anybody

616
00:34:22,440 --> 00:34:25,600
Speaker 1: or anything. They're not even dating, so instead a lot

617
00:34:25,640 --> 00:34:29,080
Speaker 1: of them are just watching porn because seems to satisfy them.

618
00:34:29,080 --> 00:34:32,359
Speaker 1: Women generally want to get married. Women generally don't want

619
00:34:32,400 --> 00:34:35,600
Speaker 1: to waste time with a guy who's not serious. So

620
00:34:35,800 --> 00:34:37,520
Speaker 1: a lot of women aren't getting married in their twenties

621
00:34:37,520 --> 00:34:41,120
Speaker 1: either anymore. That's all moved. Yeah, I understand, it's all moved,

622
00:34:41,160 --> 00:34:44,680
Speaker 1: But they want a committed relationship. Most women do and

623
00:34:45,440 --> 00:34:48,480
Speaker 1: men don't, and they're not capable of it in their twenties.

624
00:34:49,400 --> 00:34:51,600
Speaker 1: There isn't much difference between like a twenty six year

625
00:34:51,600 --> 00:34:54,319
Speaker 1: old guy and a seventeen year old guy. You're your

626
00:34:54,360 --> 00:34:59,239
Speaker 1: frontal It's like what gascon says, your frontal lobe hasn't developed. Yeah,

627
00:34:59,320 --> 00:35:01,879
Speaker 1: but I think they're something bigger happening here. Those are

628
00:35:01,920 --> 00:35:05,120
Speaker 1: the standard things that we've known for years now. A

629
00:35:05,160 --> 00:35:07,840
Speaker 1: lot of the men are not reporting any close relationships.

630
00:35:08,680 --> 00:35:15,000
Speaker 1: That's plunged by half since nineteen ninety and the number

631
00:35:15,360 --> 00:35:18,560
Speaker 1: that says they don't have any close relationships at all

632
00:35:18,560 --> 00:35:22,640
Speaker 1: our friendships went up to fifteen percent of men in

633
00:35:22,640 --> 00:35:25,960
Speaker 1: their twenties. I think because of the lockdown two and everything,

634
00:35:26,320 --> 00:35:28,680
Speaker 1: men found that easier to adjust to. And now they're

635
00:35:28,719 --> 00:35:31,319
Speaker 1: just living a world, particularly this age group, where they're

636
00:35:31,360 --> 00:35:34,200
Speaker 1: just completely isolated from everybody this age group. But My

637
00:35:34,280 --> 00:35:37,560
Speaker 1: kids have told me that in college, they teach that men,

638
00:35:37,800 --> 00:35:42,839
Speaker 1: especially white men, are dirt. They teach that, Yes, that's

639
00:35:43,040 --> 00:35:46,799
Speaker 1: a class, Yes, white men are dirt. No, like all like,

640
00:35:46,880 --> 00:35:49,040
Speaker 1: we go to an English class, right, all the reading

641
00:35:49,040 --> 00:35:53,440
Speaker 1: assignments are how awful men are and how women are

642
00:35:53,480 --> 00:35:59,319
Speaker 1: constantly oppressed by men. What patriarchy? Yeah, the patriarchy. There's

643
00:35:59,360 --> 00:36:03,000
Speaker 1: a class in this. No, no, it's it permeates all

644
00:36:03,040 --> 00:36:08,840
Speaker 1: the classes. History is about men oppressing English. It's about

645
00:36:08,960 --> 00:36:12,880
Speaker 1: novels that demonstrate how men oppress. Virtually. One of my

646
00:36:12,920 --> 00:36:15,800
Speaker 1: sons told me that virtually everything he got in English

647
00:36:15,800 --> 00:36:19,839
Speaker 1: class senior year high school centered around that. Huh. How

648
00:36:20,360 --> 00:36:24,200
Speaker 1: teachers teach with the slant? Yeah, it's part of the

649
00:36:24,200 --> 00:36:26,839
Speaker 1: woke propaganda. You hear about it. It's real, it's it's

650
00:36:26,880 --> 00:36:31,120
Speaker 1: not some kind of right wing fiction. I experienced it. Yeah,

651
00:36:31,280 --> 00:36:33,200
Speaker 1: all right, we got more coming up. We'll talk about

652
00:36:33,200 --> 00:36:37,000
