They don't 16 00:00:49,159 --> 00:00:49,479 Speaker 2: even know. 17 00:00:49,520 --> 00:00:56,760 Speaker 1: It's big issue this week is illegal immigration. La Times 18 00:00:56,840 --> 00:00:59,520 Speaker 1: is a story that it's the top issue for voters 19 00:01:00,120 --> 00:01:02,840 Speaker 1: across the country, and it's a serious issue among not 20 00:01:02,920 --> 00:01:07,040 Speaker 1: only Republicans but independence a significant number of Democrats, and 21 00:01:07,080 --> 00:01:10,800 Speaker 1: it seems to have been crystallized by that nursing student 22 00:01:10,800 --> 00:01:13,880 Speaker 1: in Georgia, Lake and Riley, who is bludgeoned to death 23 00:01:14,319 --> 00:01:18,080 Speaker 1: by an illegal alien from Venezuela. I don't think we 24 00:01:18,160 --> 00:01:20,640 Speaker 1: spent much time in your past appearance as talking about 25 00:01:20,680 --> 00:01:22,720 Speaker 1: your views and what you think ought to be done 26 00:01:22,760 --> 00:01:25,240 Speaker 1: with illegal immigration. You get to the Senate, there's going 27 00:01:25,319 --> 00:01:27,720 Speaker 1: to be some serious voting going on that's about this. 28 00:01:28,000 --> 00:01:31,000 Speaker 3: Yeah, and we did talk about, you know, the tour 29 00:01:31,040 --> 00:01:34,680 Speaker 3: I did of the border down south, and we spent 30 00:01:34,720 --> 00:01:39,160 Speaker 3: about five or six hours with Representative Isa and some 31 00:01:39,319 --> 00:01:42,080 Speaker 3: mayors down south, and we went from the ocean to 32 00:01:42,160 --> 00:01:45,319 Speaker 3: the top of Ota Mountain, which is very close to. 33 00:01:47,920 --> 00:01:50,680 Speaker 2: Jumbo a Co. 34 00:01:51,520 --> 00:01:53,080 Speaker 1: I'm trying to figure out it pronounce it because I 35 00:01:53,120 --> 00:01:56,960 Speaker 1: hadn't heard of this town until you know, Fox discovered 36 00:01:57,000 --> 00:02:00,600 Speaker 1: this huge stream of illegal aliens coming over the border. 37 00:02:01,280 --> 00:02:05,080 Speaker 3: I think it's Alkumbama, and we were within a mile 38 00:02:05,200 --> 00:02:07,480 Speaker 3: of that, so we could see the top of ot 39 00:02:07,680 --> 00:02:13,760 Speaker 3: Mountain and then these refugees, these illegal immigrants coming over, 40 00:02:14,120 --> 00:02:17,320 Speaker 3: and there was a gaps in the wall that we're 41 00:02:17,400 --> 00:02:20,320 Speaker 3: going to be put up. There was a staging area, 42 00:02:20,680 --> 00:02:23,919 Speaker 3: and then of course the administration changed and that stopped, 43 00:02:24,760 --> 00:02:27,239 Speaker 3: and then I think the governor Texas bought all those 44 00:02:27,240 --> 00:02:30,400 Speaker 3: materials for ten cents on the dollar. But what happened 45 00:02:30,480 --> 00:02:35,240 Speaker 3: was now this influx from deeper into San Diego County 46 00:02:35,880 --> 00:02:39,960 Speaker 3: has caused a whole new wave of what I term 47 00:02:40,040 --> 00:02:44,600 Speaker 3: a disaster. Really, now these thousands are coming through, they're 48 00:02:44,639 --> 00:02:47,359 Speaker 3: up higher, they're fifteen twenty miles up, which means they're 49 00:02:47,400 --> 00:02:51,840 Speaker 3: going to go more inland. And this is just we 50 00:02:51,880 --> 00:02:56,239 Speaker 3: talk about supporting our allies around the world. We're in 51 00:02:56,280 --> 00:03:02,440 Speaker 3: a war. Were with these illegal immigrants coming because the 52 00:03:02,480 --> 00:03:07,799 Speaker 3: President on his first day made executive decisions that opened 53 00:03:07,800 --> 00:03:12,240 Speaker 3: the border, that told people to come without any real 54 00:03:12,360 --> 00:03:15,880 Speaker 3: understanding of how they were going to take care of 55 00:03:15,919 --> 00:03:18,280 Speaker 3: these people, how they're going to process these people, where 56 00:03:18,320 --> 00:03:22,400 Speaker 3: these people were going to go that the fentanyl and 57 00:03:22,840 --> 00:03:26,720 Speaker 3: the the fentanyls killing one hundred thousand people. Give you 58 00:03:26,720 --> 00:03:29,720 Speaker 3: an example, My youngest son, Sean goes to Mischigan State 59 00:03:30,200 --> 00:03:34,640 Speaker 3: and he's a sigma now and he graduates a year 60 00:03:34,639 --> 00:03:37,240 Speaker 3: and a half ago. Within two weeks, two of his 61 00:03:37,360 --> 00:03:42,360 Speaker 3: brothers died of ventanyl overdose. I mean, that's the extension. 62 00:03:42,440 --> 00:03:46,000 Speaker 3: This is Lansing, Michigan in that area, it's New York, 63 00:03:46,080 --> 00:03:50,720 Speaker 3: it's its Maine, it's Northwest, it's all over the country 64 00:03:50,960 --> 00:03:54,960 Speaker 3: because of opening these borders to ten to twelve million people. 65 00:03:55,960 --> 00:03:58,600 Speaker 3: I mean four years ago it was one thousand a 66 00:03:58,640 --> 00:04:01,720 Speaker 3: day and a lot of them were legal immigrants coming in. 67 00:04:02,080 --> 00:04:06,160 Speaker 3: Now to allow this and it's just disastrous. Let's let's 68 00:04:06,160 --> 00:04:08,920 Speaker 3: secure the border. Do we have to do, bring in 69 00:04:08,920 --> 00:04:13,840 Speaker 3: the reserves, Let's get back to revetting these people because 70 00:04:13,880 --> 00:04:17,039 Speaker 3: we don't know who they are. Four thousand percent more 71 00:04:17,120 --> 00:04:20,920 Speaker 3: Chinese have come in since October, and these are males, 72 00:04:20,960 --> 00:04:25,880 Speaker 3: and they're coming in relatively decently dressed. And yeah, these 73 00:04:26,200 --> 00:04:27,360 Speaker 3: aren't always poor people. 74 00:04:27,920 --> 00:04:31,360 Speaker 1: These are middle class or even wealthier people because they've 75 00:04:31,400 --> 00:04:35,840 Speaker 1: paid a huge price to the drug cartels to get 76 00:04:35,920 --> 00:04:41,599 Speaker 1: shipped from Chicago from China, often to Columbia or Ecuador, 77 00:04:41,760 --> 00:04:43,960 Speaker 1: and then they make their way to Mexico City and 78 00:04:44,000 --> 00:04:46,080 Speaker 1: then up here. But I mean, they're paying a lot 79 00:04:46,080 --> 00:04:47,400 Speaker 1: of money for the strip. By the way, we're on 80 00:04:47,480 --> 00:04:50,159 Speaker 1: Instagram wide if you want to see Steve Garvey interviewed 81 00:04:50,160 --> 00:04:50,800 Speaker 1: here in the studio. 82 00:04:50,880 --> 00:04:51,919 Speaker 2: By the wayre Exco is. 83 00:04:51,960 --> 00:04:56,280 Speaker 3: At down to the ten most active countries coming into 84 00:04:56,360 --> 00:05:00,320 Speaker 3: this country. You always think Mexico's first and Central America. 85 00:05:00,600 --> 00:05:04,720 Speaker 3: It's being passed up by Africa and Asia and Venezuela 86 00:05:04,880 --> 00:05:08,680 Speaker 3: significan amount fro Venezuela, yes, and the Chinese. So this 87 00:05:08,720 --> 00:05:12,839 Speaker 3: is a systematic attack on this country and why because 88 00:05:12,880 --> 00:05:15,280 Speaker 3: of lack of law and order. It's a lack of 89 00:05:15,920 --> 00:05:19,360 Speaker 3: addressing crime in the streets, it's a lack of aggression 90 00:05:19,400 --> 00:05:22,680 Speaker 3: around the world, from Russia to China to Iran, all 91 00:05:22,720 --> 00:05:25,240 Speaker 3: of our adversaries that we've allowed this to happen. 92 00:05:26,520 --> 00:05:30,800 Speaker 1: Your opponents, Adam Schiff and Katie Porter, they're lockstep with Biden. 93 00:05:30,960 --> 00:05:33,400 Speaker 1: I from what I've heard of the debates, they don't 94 00:05:33,440 --> 00:05:35,880 Speaker 1: offer any criticism of Biden's immigration policies. 95 00:05:36,040 --> 00:05:40,520 Speaker 3: By the way, when they're running, they're running for a party, 96 00:05:41,000 --> 00:05:44,360 Speaker 3: and they're running for a career, and they're running for power. 97 00:05:44,839 --> 00:05:47,520 Speaker 3: And the other night in the debate, I said, you're 98 00:05:47,560 --> 00:05:50,320 Speaker 3: running for power. I'm running for the people. I'm running 99 00:05:50,360 --> 00:05:54,279 Speaker 3: to get this state back to a two party state. Right, 100 00:05:54,400 --> 00:05:57,359 Speaker 3: let's get I'm a new voice. Right. If it wasn't 101 00:05:57,360 --> 00:05:59,640 Speaker 3: for me, people would have gone back to in Malays 102 00:05:59,640 --> 00:06:02,719 Speaker 3: and said, you know, this will change some time, but 103 00:06:02,800 --> 00:06:04,240 Speaker 3: let me go on with my life until the end 104 00:06:04,240 --> 00:06:06,159 Speaker 3: of the month when I have to look at losing 105 00:06:06,320 --> 00:06:09,000 Speaker 3: eight hundred nine hundred dollars twelve thousand dollars a year, 106 00:06:09,320 --> 00:06:12,800 Speaker 3: because now we've become a wealthy and a welfare state 107 00:06:12,800 --> 00:06:15,360 Speaker 3: where the middle class is vanishing, and we're never more 108 00:06:15,480 --> 00:06:17,880 Speaker 3: vibrant than when we have a strong middle class, and 109 00:06:17,880 --> 00:06:20,480 Speaker 3: that middle class has left the state one point two 110 00:06:20,480 --> 00:06:23,400 Speaker 3: million people. These people pay good taxes, by the way, 111 00:06:23,800 --> 00:06:27,520 Speaker 3: so we're now these illegal immigrants are coming in and 112 00:06:27,560 --> 00:06:30,240 Speaker 3: we're giving them welfare, We're giving a debit card from 113 00:06:30,240 --> 00:06:34,000 Speaker 3: five to ten thousand dollars and they're going on somewhere 114 00:06:34,000 --> 00:06:36,560 Speaker 3: and what are they doing. They're putting stress on American 115 00:06:36,640 --> 00:06:39,880 Speaker 3: cities and American people that are ending up with crime, 116 00:06:40,160 --> 00:06:43,520 Speaker 3: and they're disastrous, Just like this young lady in Georgia. 117 00:06:43,560 --> 00:06:44,560 Speaker 3: This should not have had. 118 00:06:45,440 --> 00:06:48,520 Speaker 1: You are so right about people moving out. We've had 119 00:06:49,440 --> 00:06:52,359 Speaker 1: hundreds of thousands of our listeners, cafe listeners move out 120 00:06:52,680 --> 00:06:55,279 Speaker 1: because they're the ones who listen on the app to 121 00:06:55,320 --> 00:06:57,800 Speaker 1: the podcast version of the show, and I see the 122 00:06:57,839 --> 00:07:00,320 Speaker 1: cities that they're from, and we have a ton of 123 00:07:00,360 --> 00:07:04,320 Speaker 1: listeners in Texas and in Arizona and Nevada, and Colorado, 124 00:07:04,400 --> 00:07:07,400 Speaker 1: and they write to us and they keep listening to 125 00:07:07,440 --> 00:07:10,800 Speaker 1: the show because they're so happy about moving out. Hearing 126 00:07:11,000 --> 00:07:15,400 Speaker 1: California disintegrate justifies their decision and actually makes them happy. 127 00:07:15,800 --> 00:07:18,679 Speaker 1: And so we've lost a lot of just mainstream middle class, 128 00:07:18,760 --> 00:07:20,960 Speaker 1: upper middle class people with good jobs, paying a lot 129 00:07:20,960 --> 00:07:23,680 Speaker 1: of taxes, and they really have fled. I have statistical 130 00:07:23,680 --> 00:07:25,720 Speaker 1: proof of it every month when I look at where 131 00:07:25,720 --> 00:07:28,080 Speaker 1: the podcast listeners are located. 132 00:07:27,920 --> 00:07:29,800 Speaker 3: And when I'm traveling in the country, people come up 133 00:07:29,800 --> 00:07:31,640 Speaker 3: to be Oh, it's great to see great to see 134 00:07:31,640 --> 00:07:35,680 Speaker 3: a Californian. Yeah, I said, how are you doing. We 135 00:07:35,680 --> 00:07:39,280 Speaker 3: miss California. We wish we still live there, but we 136 00:07:39,520 --> 00:07:43,679 Speaker 3: just couldn't do it. Yeah, and maybe someday, And I said, 137 00:07:43,680 --> 00:07:48,559 Speaker 3: maybe someday. I'm writing for the US Senate, fresh new face, 138 00:07:49,000 --> 00:07:52,640 Speaker 3: a little old, with new ideas, who's standing up for 139 00:07:52,680 --> 00:07:55,840 Speaker 3: the people. People are standing up. This can be very 140 00:07:55,840 --> 00:08:00,440 Speaker 3: interesting March fifth, next Tuesday, to see how people are 141 00:08:00,440 --> 00:08:05,680 Speaker 3: standing up and deciding that remember the old network, mad 142 00:08:05,680 --> 00:08:08,800 Speaker 3: as hell? They want to take any more. And I 143 00:08:08,800 --> 00:08:10,880 Speaker 3: think we're going to start to see that. And that's why, 144 00:08:11,240 --> 00:08:12,960 Speaker 3: you know, we've had great momentum in four and a 145 00:08:13,000 --> 00:08:15,400 Speaker 3: half almost five months, where I come from zero to 146 00:08:16,080 --> 00:08:19,320 Speaker 3: almost mid twenties. Now people are starting to realize that 147 00:08:20,280 --> 00:08:23,160 Speaker 3: maybe you know, I know Garv I can trust them. 148 00:08:23,480 --> 00:08:26,240 Speaker 3: You know, twenty thirty thousand people and went to work 149 00:08:26,280 --> 00:08:28,280 Speaker 3: with me every night.

We're also broadcasting live 174 00:09:36,320 --> 00:09:42,640 Speaker 1: on Instagram and Steve, you just finished up a debate. 175 00:09:43,240 --> 00:09:48,880 Speaker 1: Another one turn on his mic again. Somebody's not voting 176 00:09:48,880 --> 00:09:51,199 Speaker 1: for you in there. I don't know who, but still 177 00:09:51,240 --> 00:09:55,199 Speaker 1: has time. I want to hear from you. So Adam 178 00:09:55,240 --> 00:09:59,400 Speaker 1: Schiff and Katie Porter and Barbara Lee, you're up against them, 179 00:09:59,520 --> 00:10:00,760 Speaker 1: and from. 180 00:10:00,559 --> 00:10:02,679 Speaker 3: The account, can you imagine being on that stage? 181 00:10:03,080 --> 00:10:05,360 Speaker 2: No? I know I can't. 182 00:10:06,080 --> 00:10:08,480 Speaker 3: That's why one of the things was I had to 183 00:10:08,480 --> 00:10:11,080 Speaker 3: be at one end so that I could look when 184 00:10:11,120 --> 00:10:12,080 Speaker 3: they put me in the middle. 185 00:10:12,240 --> 00:10:15,680 Speaker 1: You know, No, I something about Adam Scheff makes me 186 00:10:16,160 --> 00:10:17,120 Speaker 1: borderline violence. 187 00:10:17,600 --> 00:10:19,199 Speaker 2: I could. I could not stay up there. 188 00:10:20,080 --> 00:10:24,160 Speaker 1: But you show remarkable restraint considering a lot of the insanity. 189 00:10:24,200 --> 00:10:26,120 Speaker 1: And it's a good strategy because the more they talk, 190 00:10:26,440 --> 00:10:31,040 Speaker 1: the nuttier they seem. 191 00:10:31,400 --> 00:10:33,440 Speaker 2: You've got more confident as you've been debating. 192 00:10:33,559 --> 00:10:36,920 Speaker 1: Yeah, and because I mean, I mean, I'm sure you've 193 00:10:36,920 --> 00:10:39,600 Speaker 1: done a fair amount of like television appearances, but it's 194 00:10:39,800 --> 00:10:42,240 Speaker 1: hundreds and hundreds Yeah, But it's it's it's got to 195 00:10:42,240 --> 00:10:44,400 Speaker 1: be the first time you're on stage with three other 196 00:10:44,440 --> 00:10:47,360 Speaker 1: people who want to tear you to shreds. It's got 197 00:10:47,360 --> 00:10:49,599 Speaker 1: to be unnerving, no matter how confident you are on 198 00:10:49,640 --> 00:10:50,800 Speaker 1: a baseball I wan tell you. 199 00:10:50,760 --> 00:10:51,200 Speaker 2: About it is. 200 00:10:51,200 --> 00:10:53,520 Speaker 3: I would have rather been at Candlestick Park in front 201 00:10:53,520 --> 00:10:57,080 Speaker 3: of fifty thousand people. You know, cham Arby sucks right 202 00:10:57,400 --> 00:10:59,000 Speaker 3: and yelling at me. Almost got hit by a gym 203 00:10:59,040 --> 00:11:01,240 Speaker 3: boddle one night, but it was much safer than being 204 00:11:01,280 --> 00:11:03,920 Speaker 3: on that stage. But to be there and then listen 205 00:11:03,920 --> 00:11:06,440 Speaker 3: to what they're saying and knowing in my heart and 206 00:11:06,480 --> 00:11:09,480 Speaker 3: the people watching know in their heart that it just 207 00:11:09,520 --> 00:11:13,480 Speaker 3: doesn't add up. It's just not common sense. How are 208 00:11:13,520 --> 00:11:17,440 Speaker 3: they telling us our life is great when we know 209 00:11:17,559 --> 00:11:25,640 Speaker 3: it isn't. And for instance, the Telemundo anchor said to 210 00:11:25,800 --> 00:11:29,920 Speaker 3: Barbara Lee, why do the Latin people feel they can't 211 00:11:29,960 --> 00:11:33,560 Speaker 3: trust the Democrats? And she looks right into her eyes 212 00:11:33,880 --> 00:11:37,480 Speaker 3: and she says, well, they can't. And I look at 213 00:11:37,480 --> 00:11:40,240 Speaker 3: her like this, and this is really what it's all about. 214 00:11:40,480 --> 00:11:44,840 Speaker 3: She was straightforward and honest, because progressives don't care, because 215 00:11:44,880 --> 00:11:47,720 Speaker 3: that's what they've tried to do. They've tried to suppress people. 216 00:11:48,160 --> 00:11:52,320 Speaker 3: And our Latin community has been just phenomenal of the 217 00:11:52,360 --> 00:11:55,640 Speaker 3: fifty years here, the friendship I've developed, the support with 218 00:11:55,679 --> 00:11:58,160 Speaker 3: the families, the great fans, they are starting back with 219 00:11:58,679 --> 00:12:01,640 Speaker 3: Fernando and even beyond that. But to say that and 220 00:12:01,679 --> 00:12:05,720 Speaker 3: to admit that they don't mind suppressing the Latino community, 221 00:12:06,200 --> 00:12:08,720 Speaker 3: where I think the Latino community is one of the 222 00:12:08,720 --> 00:12:14,240 Speaker 3: most vibrant and active and hard working and fundamental uh 223 00:12:14,840 --> 00:12:18,360 Speaker 3: families and cultures of California. So this is what you're 224 00:12:18,440 --> 00:12:20,440 Speaker 3: up against people lying to you. 225 00:12:20,559 --> 00:12:23,960 Speaker 1: They tend to take working class people for granted that 226 00:12:24,080 --> 00:12:26,199 Speaker 1: you've got nowhere to vote. You're certainly not going to 227 00:12:26,280 --> 00:12:28,000 Speaker 1: vote for a republic and you're not going to vote 228 00:12:28,040 --> 00:12:30,400 Speaker 1: for Steve Garvey. You're stuck with us, so we could 229 00:12:30,480 --> 00:12:33,839 Speaker 1: ignore you and and abuse you and uh never and 230 00:12:34,000 --> 00:12:36,600 Speaker 1: and they don't do anything to make anybody's life better. 231 00:12:37,240 --> 00:12:37,400 Speaker 3: Uh. 232 00:12:37,480 --> 00:12:38,880 Speaker 1: I mean, it goes back to what you said at 233 00:12:38,880 --> 00:12:41,439 Speaker 1: the opening. It's they're in it for the power, absolutely, 234 00:12:41,520 --> 00:12:43,920 Speaker 1: and and. 235 00:12:42,679 --> 00:12:43,400 Speaker 2: Not to help. 236 00:12:43,440 --> 00:12:47,080 Speaker 3: They don't want to help poor people. What I keep 237 00:12:47,080 --> 00:12:49,800 Speaker 3: saying one of my theme is career politicians. Your politicians 238 00:12:49,800 --> 00:12:53,559 Speaker 3: are running for a job, right they're they're they get elected, 239 00:12:53,559 --> 00:12:57,320 Speaker 3: and they start running again because they want to go 240 00:12:57,360 --> 00:13:00,960 Speaker 3: along with with with the party line. Opponents have voted 241 00:13:01,000 --> 00:13:04,199 Speaker 3: down the party line ninety seven ninety. 242 00:13:03,920 --> 00:13:05,080 Speaker 2: Eight percent of the time. 243 00:13:05,440 --> 00:13:07,840 Speaker 3: There's no way. If you're honest and you want to 244 00:13:07,840 --> 00:13:10,240 Speaker 3: do it's best for the people, you will vote anywhere 245 00:13:10,280 --> 00:13:15,840 Speaker 3: near that. Bipartisan votes are what ultimately drives, you know, 246 00:13:15,880 --> 00:13:19,640 Speaker 3: the quality of education, the economy, being able to get 247 00:13:19,679 --> 00:13:21,360 Speaker 3: people off the streets. 248 00:13:21,440 --> 00:13:23,400 Speaker 1: And here's an example of the damage they did to 249 00:13:23,880 --> 00:13:27,720 Speaker 1: poor people is they voted for all that spending, trillions 250 00:13:27,720 --> 00:13:29,600 Speaker 1: and trillions of dollars of spending at the start of 251 00:13:29,600 --> 00:13:33,000 Speaker 1: Biden's term, and that's what created the inflation. And now 252 00:13:33,000 --> 00:13:36,240 Speaker 1: who gets hurt by inflation not wealthy people. Wealthy people 253 00:13:36,280 --> 00:13:39,640 Speaker 1: can afford a ten thirty percent increase in the price 254 00:13:39,640 --> 00:13:43,880 Speaker 1: of everything. It's people in the lower and middle classes. 255 00:13:44,200 --> 00:13:47,600 Speaker 1: They're the ones who get screwed by excessive inflation. And 256 00:13:47,720 --> 00:13:51,880 Speaker 1: every single Democrat voted for every single Biden spending plan, 257 00:13:51,960 --> 00:13:54,559 Speaker 1: and in total, I think six trillion dollars. 258 00:13:54,640 --> 00:13:57,840 Speaker 3: And now they want to fail up. Yeah, you know, 259 00:13:57,920 --> 00:14:01,880 Speaker 3: and the press is set up always you know, he 260 00:14:01,920 --> 00:14:05,439 Speaker 3: doesn't have very deep policy, you know, statements or it's 261 00:14:05,480 --> 00:14:11,000 Speaker 3: pretty shallow or other things. Well, their policies have failed. 262 00:14:11,360 --> 00:14:14,320 Speaker 3: I honestly have solid common sense policies that are on 263 00:14:14,400 --> 00:14:17,400 Speaker 3: Steve Garvey dot com. Right, But they don't want to 264 00:14:17,400 --> 00:14:20,080 Speaker 3: see that, you know, the the darker side does not 265 00:14:20,160 --> 00:14:22,360 Speaker 3: want to see that. They want to stick to the 266 00:14:22,400 --> 00:14:26,080 Speaker 3: party line, keep promoting that. And and that's why it's 267 00:14:26,120 --> 00:14:28,520 Speaker 3: so exciting to see people standing up in this in 268 00:14:28,560 --> 00:14:32,320 Speaker 3: the state now because they are tired of having to 269 00:14:32,320 --> 00:14:35,320 Speaker 3: to that margin each month is within three percent, right, 270 00:14:35,360 --> 00:14:38,760 Speaker 3: which is very narrow. You can't go go out to eat, 271 00:14:39,000 --> 00:14:41,320 Speaker 3: you know, any time more than once at fast food 272 00:14:41,360 --> 00:14:44,400 Speaker 3: chain maybe right close. We take a look what's going 273 00:14:44,480 --> 00:14:46,440 Speaker 3: to happen at Memorial Day. It's going to be what 274 00:14:46,520 --> 00:14:47,400 Speaker 3: are gas prices? 275 00:14:47,760 --> 00:14:48,000 Speaker 5: Right? 276 00:14:48,920 --> 00:14:49,640 Speaker 2: Five dollars here? 277 00:14:49,760 --> 00:14:52,280 Speaker 3: And then you're going to look at July fourth, what's 278 00:14:52,280 --> 00:14:54,880 Speaker 3: the food costs then? Right, because how they manipulate you. 279 00:14:55,160 --> 00:14:56,800 Speaker 3: And then it's going to go to Labor Day and 280 00:14:56,800 --> 00:15:01,440 Speaker 3: what are the cost of school supplies and for your kids, right, 281 00:15:01,560 --> 00:15:04,600 Speaker 3: This is how they control you, back and forth. A 282 00:15:04,720 --> 00:15:10,480 Speaker 3: vibrant economy, capitalistic economy, a free market, let's supply and 283 00:15:10,560 --> 00:15:13,440 Speaker 3: demand take over. Remember marble Lea's in the second debate, 284 00:15:13,640 --> 00:15:17,000 Speaker 3: she talked about a fifty dollars an hour wage increase, 285 00:15:17,920 --> 00:15:20,680 Speaker 3: and the only exposure she would have gotten in any 286 00:15:20,720 --> 00:15:22,640 Speaker 3: of these is to say that, and of course it 287 00:15:22,680 --> 00:15:26,720 Speaker 3: went national, and unfortunately it's so crazy. 288 00:15:27,080 --> 00:15:28,360 Speaker 2: But that's what we're. 289 00:15:28,280 --> 00:15:30,560 Speaker 3: Dealing with now. So let's get back to just people 290 00:15:30,640 --> 00:15:34,280 Speaker 3: knowing that, about that common sense again. And when I've 291 00:15:34,320 --> 00:15:38,160 Speaker 3: said these things, interestingly enough, all of a sudden, i'll 292 00:15:38,160 --> 00:15:41,960 Speaker 3: hear you know, Nikki Hayley, you know, say this, or 293 00:15:42,040 --> 00:15:44,480 Speaker 3: somebody else start to say, you know, one of the 294 00:15:44,480 --> 00:15:47,760 Speaker 3: things that's part of my campaign, which means not only 295 00:15:47,800 --> 00:15:50,800 Speaker 3: were we resonating on a local state basis, but on 296 00:15:50,840 --> 00:15:54,080 Speaker 3: a national basis, because it gets back to things that worked. 297 00:15:54,520 --> 00:15:56,840 Speaker 1: Steve Garvey dot com is the website Steve Garvey d 298 00:15:57,000 --> 00:16:01,040 Speaker 1: Steve Garvey dot com.

And that's a great 311 00:16:34,640 --> 00:16:37,400 Speaker 3: thing about the national pastime. It's the only true constant 312 00:16:37,400 --> 00:16:41,360 Speaker 3: over the last hundred and twenty five years. It's everybody's 313 00:16:41,360 --> 00:16:43,960 Speaker 3: played in some shape or form. They love to go 314 00:16:43,960 --> 00:16:47,160 Speaker 3: to the games because it takes them away from you know, 315 00:16:47,360 --> 00:16:51,040 Speaker 3: life itself. But it shows you about succeeding failing, get 316 00:16:51,120 --> 00:16:53,680 Speaker 3: up and keep trying again, keep reaching for the moon, 317 00:16:53,760 --> 00:16:55,640 Speaker 3: like I would say, and if you fall short, you'll 318 00:16:55,640 --> 00:16:56,040 Speaker 3: be a star. 319 00:16:56,600 --> 00:16:58,840 Speaker 1: Thank you for coming on again and anytime you want 320 00:16:58,880 --> 00:17:01,760 Speaker 1: to come back between now on the primary day and 321 00:17:02,000 --> 00:17:06,760 Speaker 1: I wish you lucky.

He's really the only normal person 329 00:17:32,760 --> 00:17:35,120 Speaker 1: up there, if you've watched even a snippet of these debates, 330 00:17:37,160 --> 00:17:41,239 Speaker 1: and we'll have all the recommendations to him. We'll talk 331 00:17:41,240 --> 00:17:44,480 Speaker 1: about him on the air as well, the replacement for 332 00:17:44,520 --> 00:17:49,920 Speaker 1: George Gascone. And also definitely vote no on a proposition 333 00:17:49,960 --> 00:17:53,879 Speaker 1: well actually it's called Measure h LA because that would 334 00:17:54,080 --> 00:18:01,200 Speaker 1: reduce by one lane car traffic on every major boulevard 335 00:18:01,200 --> 00:18:04,600 Speaker 1: in Los Angeles. There'd be one lane less. You name 336 00:18:04,640 --> 00:18:07,320 Speaker 1: the major road, and they're going to take a lane 337 00:18:07,359 --> 00:18:09,840 Speaker 1: away and turn it into a bike lane or a 338 00:18:09,880 --> 00:18:14,719 Speaker 1: bus lane, or a parking or curbing or it's going 339 00:18:14,800 --> 00:18:19,320 Speaker 1: to create massive like there isn't already massive traffic congestion, right, 340 00:18:20,000 --> 00:18:22,800 Speaker 1: What we need is more lanes.
