Do you remember 40 00:02:20,320 --> 00:02:22,280 Speaker 1: I was telling you about the Asian one hundred day 41 00:02:22,320 --> 00:02:24,760 Speaker 1: cough I got, yes, yes, Well I was on the 42 00:02:24,800 --> 00:02:28,079 Speaker 1: air and uh when I came back, and that went 43 00:02:28,120 --> 00:02:30,040 Speaker 1: on for weeks and I had so many coughing fits. 44 00:02:30,080 --> 00:02:34,800 Speaker 1: He had to play the uh, the the ice skating theme, 45 00:02:34,880 --> 00:02:37,480 Speaker 1: the organ theme for a while. While I hacked up 46 00:02:37,480 --> 00:02:40,239 Speaker 1: another one because I came back and then Ken was 47 00:02:40,280 --> 00:02:46,160 Speaker 1: off on vacation. Wow, that was by myself. Okay, anyway, 48 00:02:46,200 --> 00:02:49,679 Speaker 1: I was going back the La time. Steve Lopez, who 49 00:02:49,960 --> 00:02:54,480 Speaker 1: occasionally has good columns but often doesn't uh, and he 50 00:02:54,560 --> 00:02:57,120 Speaker 1: declined a few years ago. He declared himself old. I 51 00:02:57,120 --> 00:02:59,080 Speaker 1: don't know how old he is exactly, maybe seventy, but 52 00:02:59,120 --> 00:03:01,320 Speaker 1: he decided a few years he was old, and he 53 00:03:01,400 --> 00:03:05,280 Speaker 1: was only going to write about people he thought were old. Now, 54 00:03:05,720 --> 00:03:08,840 Speaker 1: I guess you know, some people are old very young 55 00:03:10,280 --> 00:03:12,640 Speaker 1: and they kind of shut down their life and they 56 00:03:12,639 --> 00:03:15,880 Speaker 1: don't do much. And other people still have a lot 57 00:03:15,880 --> 00:03:19,560 Speaker 1: of energy and ambition and they don't play as old. 58 00:03:19,760 --> 00:03:19,919 Speaker 4: Right. 59 00:03:21,680 --> 00:03:24,320 Speaker 1: Well, he's got a story here about the old people 60 00:03:24,320 --> 00:03:28,720 Speaker 1: who've given up driving and they want to get around 61 00:03:28,800 --> 00:03:31,880 Speaker 1: using the Metro train. But they're all terrified of the 62 00:03:31,880 --> 00:03:37,680 Speaker 1: Metro train, which I find really amusing here because it's 63 00:03:37,720 --> 00:03:41,320 Speaker 1: pretty clear that there's nobody at Metro who actually cares 64 00:03:41,360 --> 00:03:44,440 Speaker 1: whether old people live or die if they take the train. 65 00:03:44,760 --> 00:03:48,120 Speaker 1: I mean, they issue statements saying safety is our highest priority, 66 00:03:49,240 --> 00:03:50,880 Speaker 1: but when you look at what they do, it's clear 67 00:03:50,920 --> 00:03:56,800 Speaker 1: it's not that they're worried about stigmatizing the homeless. They 68 00:03:56,840 --> 00:04:01,480 Speaker 1: don't want to incarcerate the crazy criminals that run around 69 00:04:02,080 --> 00:04:05,920 Speaker 1: and the homeless, the vagrants, the mental patients, the drug addicts, 70 00:04:06,720 --> 00:04:12,120 Speaker 1: the criminals, the thieves, the attackers, they're all higher up 71 00:04:12,120 --> 00:04:14,560 Speaker 1: on the social pyramid as far as the Metro board 72 00:04:14,560 --> 00:04:18,320 Speaker 1: members are concerned, because they don't. Every every year things 73 00:04:18,320 --> 00:04:23,000 Speaker 1: get worse, the crimes get more lurid and outlandish. We've 74 00:04:23,120 --> 00:04:27,920 Speaker 1: just had we've had a whole rash of stabbings where 75 00:04:27,920 --> 00:04:30,120 Speaker 1: people got killed at that poor woman who got stabbed 76 00:04:30,200 --> 00:04:34,960 Speaker 1: viciously in the neck just a couple of weeks ago. 77 00:04:35,240 --> 00:04:38,080 Speaker 1: And and they never changed anything. They they they've they've 78 00:04:38,120 --> 00:04:42,520 Speaker 1: handcuffed the police, they cut the police, and and they 79 00:04:43,600 --> 00:04:46,560 Speaker 1: hired a lot of ambassadors who I guess wear colorful shirts. 80 00:04:48,640 --> 00:04:51,920 Speaker 1: So anyway, Steve Wolpez does a column and it's entitled 81 00:04:51,960 --> 00:04:55,640 Speaker 1: for Fearful Riders, Old and Young LA's trains and buses 82 00:04:55,800 --> 00:04:58,080 Speaker 1: must be safer. I was like that. I was like 83 00:04:58,120 --> 00:05:02,360 Speaker 1: the lecturing of columnists and tatorial writers, it must be safer. 84 00:05:03,040 --> 00:05:07,039 Speaker 1: Except these same people don't want to throw all the 85 00:05:07,040 --> 00:05:09,680 Speaker 1: criminals in prison, and they don't want to force the 86 00:05:10,400 --> 00:05:12,880 Speaker 1: vagrants and the mental patients and the drug addicts off 87 00:05:12,880 --> 00:05:16,080 Speaker 1: the streets and put them away in jail or in treatment. 88 00:05:16,160 --> 00:05:18,720 Speaker 1: They won't do it, but it must be said. Well, 89 00:05:18,800 --> 00:05:21,680 Speaker 1: you can't let all these people board the trains. You 90 00:05:21,800 --> 00:05:23,560 Speaker 1: have to throw them off and you have to arrest 91 00:05:23,560 --> 00:05:27,400 Speaker 1: them when you see them. So they write one column 92 00:05:27,440 --> 00:05:30,440 Speaker 1: saying it must be safer, and the other column we 93 00:05:30,560 --> 00:05:36,240 Speaker 1: must not criminalize the homeless. Well, that's incompatible. So you 94 00:05:36,320 --> 00:05:40,040 Speaker 1: got to choose one or the other. So he opens 95 00:05:40,080 --> 00:05:43,200 Speaker 1: with Lopez opens with a retired teacher named Will Fernandez 96 00:05:43,200 --> 00:05:46,599 Speaker 1: of Monrovia. He has a vehicle, but he prefers to 97 00:05:46,600 --> 00:05:50,919 Speaker 1: get around on his e bike, buses and trains for 98 00:05:51,040 --> 00:05:54,640 Speaker 1: his wallet and the environment. That's really the way to 99 00:05:54,680 --> 00:05:56,640 Speaker 1: do it. Well, I hate to break this to you. 100 00:05:56,800 --> 00:05:59,720 Speaker 1: First of all, he's only sixty three and he's already 101 00:05:59,720 --> 00:06:03,279 Speaker 1: like it up driving because he wants to save the environment. Will, 102 00:06:03,360 --> 00:06:05,520 Speaker 1: there's nothing you're going to First of all, the environment 103 00:06:05,600 --> 00:06:08,279 Speaker 1: is not in danger. We are not in crisis. Nothing 104 00:06:08,360 --> 00:06:13,200 Speaker 1: is happening, and you're not going to save it. Wipez 105 00:06:13,279 --> 00:06:17,960 Speaker 1: ran into Will Fernandez and many other older writers get this. 106 00:06:18,080 --> 00:06:22,080 Speaker 1: They actually Metro spent money on the Older Adult Transportation 107 00:06:22,240 --> 00:06:26,680 Speaker 1: Expo in Pasadena. Wow, is that not a retiree activity? 108 00:06:27,760 --> 00:06:32,600 Speaker 1: The Older Adult Transportation Expo an annual event aimed at 109 00:06:32,600 --> 00:06:35,720 Speaker 1: promoting writership and educating people how to get the most 110 00:06:35,720 --> 00:06:38,960 Speaker 1: out of Metro except Oh, anybody was talking about is 111 00:06:39,000 --> 00:06:41,560 Speaker 1: how dangerous Metro is and you might get shot or stabbed. 112 00:06:43,480 --> 00:06:47,000 Speaker 1: Why do you have to be educated on Metro? You 113 00:06:47,160 --> 00:06:49,320 Speaker 1: just look on the map and if there's a train 114 00:06:49,400 --> 00:06:52,680 Speaker 1: going to your destination, you get on the train. How 115 00:06:52,680 --> 00:06:54,120 Speaker 1: do you need to how do you mean get the 116 00:06:54,160 --> 00:06:59,080 Speaker 1: most out of it? Anyway? Will Fernandez says, I'm frightened 117 00:06:59,160 --> 00:07:03,240 Speaker 1: because of all the terrible violence that's going on. I've 118 00:07:03,279 --> 00:07:05,360 Speaker 1: lived in La all my life, and I've never seen 119 00:07:05,400 --> 00:07:08,000 Speaker 1: the level of violence that I'm seeing now. It's like 120 00:07:08,040 --> 00:07:11,720 Speaker 1: an insane asylum. I've seen people defecate on the train. 121 00:07:12,960 --> 00:07:17,480 Speaker 1: Can I stop there? I know we came out here 122 00:07:18,320 --> 00:07:21,320 Speaker 1: thirty years ago or so, and for the first twenty years, 123 00:07:21,360 --> 00:07:24,200 Speaker 1: I don't think we ever uttered the word defecate. We 124 00:07:24,280 --> 00:07:28,800 Speaker 1: never talked about poop, feces. It just didn't come up. 125 00:07:29,320 --> 00:07:34,400 Speaker 1: And then after the Occupy Wall Street movement, it seemed 126 00:07:34,400 --> 00:07:37,560 Speaker 1: everything was about feces. The last ten years. That's when 127 00:07:37,600 --> 00:07:40,160 Speaker 1: they allowed all the all the mental patients and drug 128 00:07:40,160 --> 00:07:42,880 Speaker 1: addicts to live on the streets. And what happened is 129 00:07:42,920 --> 00:07:46,680 Speaker 1: you had you had piles of feces everywhere, right, and 130 00:07:46,720 --> 00:07:50,559 Speaker 1: that became a constant theme because of the homeless. In fact, 131 00:07:50,600 --> 00:07:53,120 Speaker 1: just at the UCLA protests the other day, one of 132 00:07:53,160 --> 00:07:55,520 Speaker 1: the reporters was talking about all the defication that was 133 00:07:55,560 --> 00:07:59,840 Speaker 1: going on campus. And it seems when progressives took over this, 134 00:08:01,280 --> 00:08:08,200 Speaker 1: that's when there were constantly stories involving people dumping their 135 00:08:08,240 --> 00:08:10,800 Speaker 1: feces out in public. Never heard of it for the 136 00:08:10,800 --> 00:08:14,040 Speaker 1: first twenty years I was here, but the last ten 137 00:08:14,360 --> 00:08:18,040 Speaker 1: it's almost every day. So Will Fernandez says, it's an 138 00:08:18,040 --> 00:08:20,680 Speaker 1: insane asylum. I've seen people defecate on the train. I've 139 00:08:20,720 --> 00:08:23,520 Speaker 1: seen people pull knives on the train. It's definitely up 140 00:08:23,560 --> 00:08:26,760 Speaker 1: to by level of awareness. And this is something I 141 00:08:26,800 --> 00:08:29,000 Speaker 1: noticed in the story that talking to the old people 142 00:08:29,040 --> 00:08:30,920 Speaker 1: who take the train or you have to be aware. 143 00:08:31,840 --> 00:08:35,040 Speaker 1: You have to be aware of. What if you have 144 00:08:35,160 --> 00:08:39,600 Speaker 1: a crazy person at five in the morning suddenly come 145 00:08:39,679 --> 00:08:42,840 Speaker 1: fly out of nowhere and start stabbing you in the neck. 146 00:08:44,120 --> 00:08:47,840 Speaker 1: What are you supposed to be aware of? They just 147 00:08:47,960 --> 00:08:51,920 Speaker 1: jump you, and they have a violent fit and they 148 00:08:52,000 --> 00:08:54,040 Speaker 1: kill you. That's what happened to that lady a couple 149 00:08:54,040 --> 00:08:56,520 Speaker 1: of weeks ago. She was coming back from her overnight job. 150 00:08:56,600 --> 00:09:01,720 Speaker 1: She was a security guard at a Hamburger dand and 151 00:09:01,760 --> 00:09:06,599 Speaker 1: she comes off the train and and some some lunatics 152 00:09:06,840 --> 00:09:12,240 Speaker 1: stabs her to death in the neck. Wil Fernandez says, 153 00:09:12,280 --> 00:09:17,160 Speaker 1: there's too many fair jumpers. He tries to look part 154 00:09:17,160 --> 00:09:20,160 Speaker 1: of a tough guy while commuting, hoping to discourage attacks. 155 00:09:20,200 --> 00:09:22,520 Speaker 1: Wh wants to do that? Why not just take a car? 156 00:09:23,040 --> 00:09:26,240 Speaker 1: You're not saving the environment? Why do you? Why are you? 157 00:09:26,320 --> 00:09:27,840 Speaker 1: Why are you going on the train looking like a 158 00:09:27,880 --> 00:09:30,200 Speaker 1: tough guy so that nobody stabs you in the neck. 159 00:09:31,720 --> 00:09:34,120 Speaker 1: This is my bike lock, just in case grabbing the 160 00:09:34,120 --> 00:09:37,000 Speaker 1: steel cable. I'm ready to take care of business as 161 00:09:37,000 --> 00:09:39,400 Speaker 1: a defense mechanism, because gotten to the point where you 162 00:09:39,440 --> 00:09:42,680 Speaker 1: have to take responsibility for your own safety. You gotta 163 00:09:42,679 --> 00:09:47,840 Speaker 1: walk around with a bike lock. That's not where the 164 00:09:47,880 --> 00:09:53,000 Speaker 1: train ride. In the keynote address at the expo event, 165 00:09:53,720 --> 00:09:57,600 Speaker 1: the Metro chief executive Stephanie Wiggins, and boy is she 166 00:09:58,000 --> 00:10:03,360 Speaker 1: out to lunch? She hit the highlights of service expansion 167 00:10:03,720 --> 00:10:07,760 Speaker 1: and increased ridership and repeated the grand division of Metro 168 00:10:07,880 --> 00:10:11,560 Speaker 1: as both a commuter service and an affordable way to explore, discover, 169 00:10:11,640 --> 00:10:16,440 Speaker 1: and connect with our communities. People. People went there to 170 00:10:16,440 --> 00:10:21,240 Speaker 1: Pasadena to listen to this. But Wiggins said, safety is 171 00:10:21,280 --> 00:10:24,600 Speaker 1: the most important thing we've been working on, and then 172 00:10:24,640 --> 00:10:27,000 Speaker 1: she called for a moment of silence for the woman 173 00:10:27,040 --> 00:10:32,400 Speaker 1: I'm talking about, Myrna Souza Ruse, the security guard at 174 00:10:32,440 --> 00:10:35,760 Speaker 1: Tommy's Restaurant sixty seven, stabbed to death on a Bee 175 00:10:35,760 --> 00:10:40,400 Speaker 1: Line train between North Hollywood and the Universal stations five 176 00:10:40,440 --> 00:10:49,560 Speaker 1: am and April twenty second. So she she has to 177 00:10:49,600 --> 00:10:53,280 Speaker 1: pause in her speech for a moment of silence because 178 00:10:53,280 --> 00:10:56,600 Speaker 1: one of her customers got stabbed to death. Because Stephanie 179 00:10:56,640 --> 00:10:59,480 Speaker 1: Wiggins and everybody else on the Metro board doesn't want 180 00:10:59,520 --> 00:11:02,439 Speaker 1: the police there. It's not that they don't even want 181 00:11:02,480 --> 00:11:04,040 Speaker 1: to pay for the police. They don't want to pay 182 00:11:04,040 --> 00:11:06,120 Speaker 1: for the police. It's that they don't want the police 183 00:11:06,400 --> 00:11:09,080 Speaker 1: because they hate the police. They hate the police, and 184 00:11:09,080 --> 00:11:12,080 Speaker 1: they think the police are the bad guys. That's baked 185 00:11:12,080 --> 00:11:15,960 Speaker 1: into their brains that police are bad people, So you 186 00:11:15,960 --> 00:11:27,559 Speaker 1: don't want to around protecting good people. Okay, Wiggins give 187 00:11:27,600 --> 00:11:32,640 Speaker 1: a speech where she indicated that Metro cannot clean up 188 00:11:32,679 --> 00:11:38,040 Speaker 1: all the societal failures. She started talking about a homelessness, 189 00:11:38,080 --> 00:11:41,040 Speaker 1: untreated mental illness, and a drug epidemic. We didn't create 190 00:11:41,080 --> 00:11:43,360 Speaker 1: any of these problems, but we need to manage them. No, 191 00:11:43,400 --> 00:11:45,440 Speaker 1: you just ban them from the train, is what you do. 192 00:11:45,480 --> 00:11:48,600 Speaker 1: You ban them from the bus. You don't let homeless 193 00:11:48,640 --> 00:11:53,760 Speaker 1: people on into the train stations and onto the buses 194 00:11:53,760 --> 00:11:56,920 Speaker 1: and trains. And most of the people on the Metro 195 00:11:56,920 --> 00:12:00,280 Speaker 1: board are local politicians. They should ban them from the streets. 196 00:12:00,920 --> 00:12:05,559 Speaker 1: Everybody should be forced into mental health treatment or drug 197 00:12:05,600 --> 00:12:08,520 Speaker 1: treatment or put in jail. They should be forced to 198 00:12:08,880 --> 00:12:11,160 Speaker 1: the laws are on the books. You should pass new 199 00:12:11,200 --> 00:12:17,600 Speaker 1: laws and put them away because you can't. Metro can't 200 00:12:17,880 --> 00:12:20,760 Speaker 1: stop people from stabbing you in the neck if they're 201 00:12:20,800 --> 00:12:24,160 Speaker 1: allowed to be on the street. But again, the Metro 202 00:12:24,240 --> 00:12:27,800 Speaker 1: board and all the local politicians, it's exactly the same people. 203 00:12:30,840 --> 00:12:34,880 Speaker 1: Then she talked to that while she was speaking. One 204 00:12:34,880 --> 00:12:38,720 Speaker 1: more thing. While she was speaking, a security guard got 205 00:12:38,760 --> 00:12:43,880 Speaker 1: into an altercation on Tuesday morning with a guy with 206 00:12:43,960 --> 00:12:49,680 Speaker 1: a knife and the guard was stabbed by the attacker. 207 00:12:50,120 --> 00:12:53,640 Speaker 1: The guard then shot the attacker and killed him. You 208 00:12:53,720 --> 00:12:56,520 Speaker 1: heard that story a few days ago. This is why 209 00:12:56,880 --> 00:13:01,760 Speaker 1: Stephanie Wiggins is given a speech on safety being the 210 00:13:01,800 --> 00:13:07,000 Speaker 1: highest priority. While she's talking, some guy pulls out a knife, 211 00:13:07,280 --> 00:13:10,360 Speaker 1: goes after a security knife, goes after a security guard. 212 00:13:10,480 --> 00:13:14,760 Speaker 1: Security guard shoots him to death. It's a zoo out there, 213 00:13:16,000 --> 00:13:19,920 Speaker 1: it's an outdoor insane asylum, and the people that could 214 00:13:20,000 --> 00:13:26,199 Speaker 1: stop it immediately refuse to do it. You must understand 215 00:13:26,400 --> 00:13:29,839 Speaker 1: they refuse to do it. They hate the police and 216 00:13:29,880 --> 00:13:33,120 Speaker 1: they don't think that we deserve to walk around safely. 217 00:13:33,800 --> 00:13:37,000 Speaker 1: That it's more important that the vagrants, the mental patience 218 00:13:37,040 --> 00:13:39,800 Speaker 1: and the drug addicts and all the violent criminals that 219 00:13:39,920 --> 00:13:44,960 Speaker 1: they are allowed to walk the streets unmolested. They've made 220 00:13:44,960 --> 00:13:47,240 Speaker 1: that choice. That's their value system, and we have to 221 00:13:47,240 --> 00:13:50,040 Speaker 1: live with it until we toss them at of office. 222 00:13:50,679 --> 00:13:53,240 Speaker 1: But we don't do that.

If you 339 00:19:43,840 --> 00:19:46,480 Speaker 1: want to keep track of us on social media, there 340 00:19:46,600 --> 00:19:50,520 Speaker 1: is I want to talk about the payoffs that universities 341 00:19:50,560 --> 00:19:54,400 Speaker 1: are getting from Palestinian interests, and that might explain what's 342 00:19:54,800 --> 00:19:57,879 Speaker 1: in part what's going on. But as I was trolling 343 00:19:57,880 --> 00:20:03,120 Speaker 1: around the internet, I came across the story about gen 344 00:20:03,280 --> 00:20:08,439 Speaker 1: Z having gen Z peep. I always hate these broad 345 00:20:11,400 --> 00:20:16,360 Speaker 1: generational characterizations, like you can't take one generation that spans, 346 00:20:16,440 --> 00:20:20,560 Speaker 1: you know, twenty years and come up with this generalization 347 00:20:20,640 --> 00:20:22,879 Speaker 1: that applies to most of them or all of them. 348 00:20:22,920 --> 00:20:26,080 Speaker 1: It's it's kind of stupid. But I want to mention 349 00:20:26,280 --> 00:20:33,920 Speaker 1: this one because somebody had the same experience recently. In 350 00:20:34,040 --> 00:20:37,280 Speaker 1: this story about the difficulties that eighteen to thirty four 351 00:20:37,359 --> 00:20:40,520 Speaker 1: year olds have in growing up and taking responsibility and 352 00:20:40,600 --> 00:20:44,360 Speaker 1: living on their own and handling their money. Apparently, according 353 00:20:44,359 --> 00:20:47,960 Speaker 1: to a survey, twenty five percent of eighteen to thirty 354 00:20:47,960 --> 00:20:53,520 Speaker 1: four year olds have never answered their phone. Twenty five 355 00:20:53,600 --> 00:20:57,040 Speaker 1: percent have never answered their phone. So how do they 356 00:20:57,119 --> 00:21:01,640 Speaker 1: talk to people just the text yeah or through social media? 357 00:21:02,000 --> 00:21:05,520 Speaker 1: They apparently it's too much pressure. And the thing is, 358 00:21:05,640 --> 00:21:08,920 Speaker 1: I just talked to a radio guy recently. I was 359 00:21:09,000 --> 00:21:12,960 Speaker 1: gonna say, who said the same thing that in dealing 360 00:21:13,040 --> 00:21:17,639 Speaker 1: with younger employees, if the phone rings, they freeze and 361 00:21:17,760 --> 00:21:20,800 Speaker 1: they don't want to call people and they don't want 362 00:21:20,880 --> 00:21:25,240 Speaker 1: to answer the phone. And I've heard this, I've heard 363 00:21:25,280 --> 00:21:27,760 Speaker 1: this from my sons. Now they're not like this, but 364 00:21:27,920 --> 00:21:29,840 Speaker 1: they say that there are a lot of people their 365 00:21:29,920 --> 00:21:34,080 Speaker 1: age who don't use the phone that's considered an old 366 00:21:34,160 --> 00:21:35,359 Speaker 1: person's way to communicate. 367 00:21:35,600 --> 00:21:38,160 Speaker 2: Well, okay, so I'll give you an example. I'll call 368 00:21:38,240 --> 00:21:41,800 Speaker 2: my friend and he will miss the call or whatever 369 00:21:42,359 --> 00:21:45,200 Speaker 2: for whatever reason, but he won't call me back. He'll 370 00:21:45,280 --> 00:21:47,000 Speaker 2: text me back being like, hey, I saw you called. 371 00:21:47,040 --> 00:21:51,639 Speaker 1: What's up? Yes? I get that increasingly now too. It's like, 372 00:21:51,720 --> 00:21:52,960 Speaker 1: well I called you. It means I want to have 373 00:21:53,000 --> 00:21:55,240 Speaker 1: a conversation because I hate conversing by text. Yeah, I 374 00:21:55,320 --> 00:21:57,840 Speaker 1: can't type too much gets lost in translation. No, no, yeah, 375 00:21:57,840 --> 00:22:01,840 Speaker 1: people misinterpret very easily when it in print. And you know, 376 00:22:01,960 --> 00:22:05,760 Speaker 1: conversations are free roaming, free ranging, and also sometimes there's 377 00:22:05,800 --> 00:22:07,520 Speaker 1: just a lot of details that you got to work out. 378 00:22:08,760 --> 00:22:14,080 Speaker 1: But I've heard this frequently that younger people they they 379 00:22:15,359 --> 00:22:20,879 Speaker 1: they get like they get scared by the phone, like 380 00:22:21,000 --> 00:22:25,159 Speaker 1: it's too intrusive. They don't know how to conduct the conversation. 381 00:22:25,480 --> 00:22:29,240 Speaker 1: I just wonder how pervasive it is. All right, onto 382 00:22:30,480 --> 00:22:33,040 Speaker 1: this story, which was in the New York Post. You know, 383 00:22:33,119 --> 00:22:36,320 Speaker 1: when you see something that doesn't make sense that you 384 00:22:36,359 --> 00:22:39,560 Speaker 1: haven't quite seen before, there's usually another story behind it. 385 00:22:39,640 --> 00:22:42,560 Speaker 1: You just don't know it. And it depends whether anybody investigates, 386 00:22:42,720 --> 00:22:45,240 Speaker 1: wants to report it and has the guts to report it. 387 00:22:46,119 --> 00:22:48,960 Speaker 1: And if you wondered why some of these universities had 388 00:22:49,080 --> 00:22:52,960 Speaker 1: these programs to teach students to hate Jewish people and 389 00:22:53,200 --> 00:22:56,000 Speaker 1: to hate students to hate the concept of Israel, you 390 00:22:56,080 --> 00:22:58,600 Speaker 1: may wonder, well, where did this come from? And you 391 00:22:58,680 --> 00:23:01,120 Speaker 1: may wonder where these students come from. How did all 392 00:23:01,200 --> 00:23:05,680 Speaker 1: these jew hating students end up at one elite university 393 00:23:05,880 --> 00:23:09,760 Speaker 1: and they're running around now waving Palestinian flags and dressing 394 00:23:09,880 --> 00:23:17,560 Speaker 1: up in Palestinian cultural uniforms. Where did this all come from? Well, 395 00:23:17,680 --> 00:23:21,159 Speaker 1: it turns out that some Ivy League schools, including Harvard 396 00:23:21,280 --> 00:23:28,360 Speaker 1: University and Brown and also Indiana University of Pennsylvania, which 397 00:23:28,400 --> 00:23:31,479 Speaker 1: is not an Ivy League school, but they accept funding 398 00:23:31,560 --> 00:23:36,400 Speaker 1: from donors in the State of Palestine. Now, the State 399 00:23:36,440 --> 00:23:39,000 Speaker 1: of Palestine is not a real thing according to the 400 00:23:39,119 --> 00:23:45,359 Speaker 1: United Nations. Some countries recognize the State of Palestine. The 401 00:23:45,520 --> 00:23:49,560 Speaker 1: US does not. The United Nations does not, although there 402 00:23:49,680 --> 00:23:54,200 Speaker 1: is a movement to do so. And these schools that 403 00:23:54,320 --> 00:23:57,960 Speaker 1: I mentioned took ten million dollars over the last six 404 00:23:58,080 --> 00:24:02,280 Speaker 1: years from entities in the State of Palestine. This is 405 00:24:02,320 --> 00:24:06,600 Speaker 1: according to analysis by an organization called Open the Books, 406 00:24:07,359 --> 00:24:10,719 Speaker 1: which is a nonprofit that is dedicated to revealing government spending. 407 00:24:11,040 --> 00:24:14,520 Speaker 1: We have had Open the Books, We've talked about it 408 00:24:14,640 --> 00:24:18,200 Speaker 1: numerous times because they will put together analysis so we 409 00:24:18,359 --> 00:24:22,880 Speaker 1: find out how much money is being made by government 410 00:24:22,920 --> 00:24:27,400 Speaker 1: employees for example. So give you an example. Brown University 411 00:24:27,480 --> 00:24:30,240 Speaker 1: in February of twenty twenty got six hundred and forty 412 00:24:30,280 --> 00:24:34,040 Speaker 1: three thousand dollars from a foundation in the state of Palestine, 413 00:24:35,600 --> 00:24:40,879 Speaker 1: and the money created a professorship in Palestinian studies in 414 00:24:41,000 --> 00:24:43,800 Speaker 1: Brown's Middle East Studies program. Now what do you think 415 00:24:44,160 --> 00:24:47,679 Speaker 1: they were teaching in Palestinian studies? You think they were 416 00:24:48,480 --> 00:24:54,840 Speaker 1: teaching how wonderful the Israelis are. In fact, nine donors, 417 00:24:56,840 --> 00:25:02,360 Speaker 1: including some Brown alumni, and the foundation, a foundation called 418 00:25:02,359 --> 00:25:07,480 Speaker 1: the Munib and Angela Masri Foundation came together to fund 419 00:25:08,440 --> 00:25:13,840 Speaker 1: the Mohammad no the Mahmud Darwish professorship in Palestinian Studies. Okay, 420 00:25:14,320 --> 00:25:16,880 Speaker 1: so let me clear this up. You had a group 421 00:25:16,920 --> 00:25:22,520 Speaker 1: of donors create a professorship in Palestinian studies, and then 422 00:25:24,520 --> 00:25:30,800 Speaker 1: these schools took money to give Palestinian students scholarships and 423 00:25:30,920 --> 00:25:37,360 Speaker 1: presumably they would take courses in Palestinian studies and then 424 00:25:37,720 --> 00:25:43,040 Speaker 1: develop all their hatred of Jews in Israel. And then 425 00:25:43,280 --> 00:25:48,639 Speaker 1: when Hamas committed its disgusting atrocities, they were willing to 426 00:25:48,720 --> 00:25:51,760 Speaker 1: take to the streets and defend Hamas because they had 427 00:25:51,800 --> 00:25:57,840 Speaker 1: been thoroughly schooled and trained by these professors and buy 428 00:25:58,000 --> 00:26:02,720 Speaker 1: these academic programs. But the professor and the academic programs 429 00:26:02,840 --> 00:26:06,159 Speaker 1: and the students exist because it was paid for by 430 00:26:06,200 --> 00:26:14,919 Speaker 1: these Palestinian foundations and Palestinian alumni. Harvard got money from 431 00:26:15,000 --> 00:26:18,560 Speaker 1: Palestinian donors in twenty seventeen, twenty eighteen, and twenty nineteen, 432 00:26:19,720 --> 00:26:25,680 Speaker 1: and they won't reveal the donor names. They were reported 433 00:26:25,720 --> 00:26:29,240 Speaker 1: as payment of tuition and fees for students from Palestine 434 00:26:29,359 --> 00:26:36,000 Speaker 1: funds to to pay educational related expenses for these students 435 00:26:36,040 --> 00:26:40,560 Speaker 1: through their enrollment in the program. Indiana University of Pennsylvania 436 00:26:40,600 --> 00:26:43,320 Speaker 1: got over two million dollars from the Arab American University 437 00:26:43,400 --> 00:26:48,959 Speaker 1: to cover tuition for Palestinian students. US universities have ongoing 438 00:26:49,040 --> 00:26:53,400 Speaker 1: relationships with the universities in the West Bank. In fact, 439 00:26:53,480 --> 00:26:57,400 Speaker 1: the first professor of Palestinian studies at Brown, Bishar Dumani, 440 00:26:57,880 --> 00:27:01,120 Speaker 1: was also the president of BUSERYNY in the West Bank 441 00:27:02,840 --> 00:27:07,000 Speaker 1: now Bisra University, the day after the October seventh attack, 442 00:27:08,000 --> 00:27:11,239 Speaker 1: stated that twenty twenty three will be recorded historically as 443 00:27:11,359 --> 00:27:15,000 Speaker 1: the year that Palestinians stood boldly in the face of 444 00:27:15,080 --> 00:27:18,880 Speaker 1: colonial fascism and screamed in defense of their homes, humanity 445 00:27:18,920 --> 00:27:22,880 Speaker 1: and lives. See you follow this. You've got a professor 446 00:27:24,960 --> 00:27:30,560 Speaker 1: president of a university in Palestine, also a professor of 447 00:27:30,680 --> 00:27:35,440 Speaker 1: Palestinian studies at Brown. His organization in the West Bank 448 00:27:36,040 --> 00:27:41,360 Speaker 1: was cheering on Hamas after the bloody massacre of the rape, 449 00:27:41,440 --> 00:27:44,720 Speaker 1: the killing of the babies, and this guy's teaching it 450 00:27:44,800 --> 00:27:52,000 Speaker 1: Brown and the students. I wonder if they're on student visas. 451 00:27:52,400 --> 00:27:55,639 Speaker 1: They're getting money from these donors, and they are the 452 00:27:55,680 --> 00:27:58,520 Speaker 1: shock troops to take to the quad or take to 453 00:27:58,600 --> 00:28:03,280 Speaker 1: the streets and starts screaming kill the Jews, and from 454 00:28:03,320 --> 00:28:05,040 Speaker 1: the river to the sea and all the other stuff. 455 00:28:07,880 --> 00:28:10,520 Speaker 1: So this is all funded, and the universities are happy 456 00:28:10,560 --> 00:28:13,040 Speaker 1: to take the money, happy to take the tuition, the 457 00:28:13,119 --> 00:28:19,280 Speaker 1: donations and all, and happy to teach this nonsense and 458 00:28:19,400 --> 00:28:22,680 Speaker 1: willing to pay the price of having their reputation destroyed 459 00:28:23,000 --> 00:28:26,399 Speaker 1: by protesters supporting one of the most vicious terrorist operations 460 00:28:26,480 --> 00:28:32,920 Speaker 1: on the planet. Fascinating that they were willing to sell 461 00:28:32,960 --> 00:28:38,120 Speaker 1: their reputations to organizations like this. So that's where this 462 00:28:38,280 --> 00:28:40,960 Speaker 1: all came from, because I mean, that's what I was 463 00:28:41,000 --> 00:28:43,200 Speaker 1: wondering every day, ten times a day. Where do these 464 00:28:43,240 --> 00:28:46,200 Speaker 1: people come from? Well, they came from Palestine. The money's 465 00:28:46,200 --> 00:28:49,920 Speaker 1: from Palestine, the programming is from Palestine, and it was 466 00:28:50,000 --> 00:28:55,000 Speaker 1: accepted by these university presidents and the boards because they 467 00:28:55,040 --> 00:28:58,719 Speaker 1: agree with it. They agree with the Hamas invasion, they 468 00:28:58,760 --> 00:29:02,479 Speaker 1: agree with all the bloody murder. They're looking around going, 469 00:29:02,520 --> 00:29:05,320 Speaker 1: what what's everyone upset about? So there was a masker? 470 00:29:05,440 --> 00:29:10,160 Speaker 1: What was that a big deal? Then they allow the 471 00:29:10,280 --> 00:29:13,640 Speaker 1: chanting of kill the Jews, f the Jews and all 472 00:29:13,720 --> 00:29:19,280 Speaker 1: the rest. It's there because the people who run these 473 00:29:19,400 --> 00:29:25,320 Speaker 1: universities agree with it and support it. They were cheering comas. 474 00:29:26,840 --> 00:29:27,040 Speaker 19: Hard. 475 00:29:27,240 --> 00:29:29,160 Speaker 1: It's hard to accept, but that that is the truth. 476 00:29:30,320 --> 00:29:32,120 Speaker 1: Otherwise they would have shut it down in five minutes, 477 00:29:32,520 --> 00:29:35,600 Speaker 1: and eventually, when the blowback became too great, they did. 478 00:29:35,680 --> 00:29:37,880 Speaker 1: They shut it down real fast. All right, we got 479 00:29:37,920 --> 00:29:39,160 Speaker 1: another round of the moistline coming up. 480 00:29:40,160 --> 00:29:44,440 Speaker 5: You're listening to John Cobels on demand from KFI AM 481 00:29:44,520 --> 00:29:45,080 Speaker 5: six forty. 482 00:29:48,120 --> 00:29:50,320 Speaker 15: Hey, Sean, thanks for calling the moistline. 483 00:29:50,480 --> 00:29:53,000 Speaker 17: I'm so excited to hear from you fromout time. 484 00:29:53,520 --> 00:29:56,880 Speaker 20: The reason why we're not hearing about the tax measure 485 00:29:57,320 --> 00:29:59,200 Speaker 20: so we get veto increases. 486 00:29:59,560 --> 00:30:01,000 Speaker 1: They don't want I want us to know they don't 487 00:30:01,040 --> 00:30:01,960 Speaker 1: want to give us power. 488 00:30:02,320 --> 00:30:04,960 Speaker 17: That's typical of the public schools in Chicago. 489 00:30:05,200 --> 00:30:06,800 Speaker 1: All the more reason they have school choice. 490 00:30:06,960 --> 00:30:08,560 Speaker 4: But if you think this isn't going to come hit 491 00:30:08,680 --> 00:30:10,600 Speaker 4: to southern California, I got news for you. 492 00:30:10,920 --> 00:30:13,040 Speaker 20: Every bad thing ends up in California. 493 00:30:13,480 --> 00:30:16,240 Speaker 15: Are we going to have a new I sah back 494 00:30:16,280 --> 00:30:19,840 Speaker 15: at nineteen eighty, But oh well, that didn't happen either. 495 00:30:20,160 --> 00:30:22,720 Speaker 15: I guess the climate's been changing for like the last 496 00:30:22,880 --> 00:30:26,160 Speaker 15: two or three hundred thousand years, so we're not going 497 00:30:26,240 --> 00:30:28,920 Speaker 15: to live to see any noticeable change. 498 00:30:29,600 --> 00:30:30,440 Speaker 1: What the hell? 499 00:30:30,840 --> 00:30:34,720 Speaker 19: During COVID, I fell in love with Burger king two 500 00:30:35,160 --> 00:30:39,200 Speaker 19: for six on whoppers.
