So all that's coming Google twenty 31 00:02:04,080 --> 00:02:07,360 Speaker 1: twenty two and Google twenty twenty three. Well, we got 32 00:02:07,360 --> 00:02:10,840 Speaker 1: a press release. Santa Monica business leader is exhausted by 33 00:02:10,880 --> 00:02:14,120 Speaker 1: city and action on crime and homelessness. Make a bold 34 00:02:14,160 --> 00:02:18,000 Speaker 1: statement for the holidays. Santa Monica business leader in civic 35 00:02:18,000 --> 00:02:20,800 Speaker 1: activist John Alley, in connection with the Santa Monica Coalition, 36 00:02:20,840 --> 00:02:23,840 Speaker 1: which is a group of retail and commercial tenants, residents 37 00:02:23,840 --> 00:02:27,399 Speaker 1: and property owners, have installed a message in the heart 38 00:02:27,400 --> 00:02:31,119 Speaker 1: of Santa Monica's Third Street promenade. It's on private property 39 00:02:31,160 --> 00:02:37,119 Speaker 1: and it reads in large letters, Santa Monica is not safe, crime, depravity, 40 00:02:37,520 --> 00:02:42,040 Speaker 1: outdoor mental asylum. I like that. That's good. Yes, And 41 00:02:42,160 --> 00:02:45,920 Speaker 1: the group and the Santa Monica Coalition is a collection 42 00:02:45,960 --> 00:02:54,040 Speaker 1: of business owners and property owners and residents. And you 43 00:02:54,120 --> 00:02:59,200 Speaker 1: know there's there's a news story that says a website 44 00:02:59,200 --> 00:03:03,160 Speaker 1: called safe y dot com their home safety and security company. 45 00:03:03,480 --> 00:03:08,000 Speaker 1: Santa Monica was ranked two hundred and twenty fourth out 46 00:03:08,000 --> 00:03:10,200 Speaker 1: of two hundred and thirty cities in the state for 47 00:03:10,320 --> 00:03:19,160 Speaker 1: safety two twenty four and based on the rate of 48 00:03:19,280 --> 00:03:22,919 Speaker 1: violent crimes and property crimes per one thousand residents. The 49 00:03:23,000 --> 00:03:27,520 Speaker 1: only cities that were worse rated was were Compton, Richmond, Stockton, 50 00:03:27,600 --> 00:03:31,080 Speaker 1: San Bernardino at Oakland. That city of Santa Monica issued 51 00:03:31,120 --> 00:03:33,359 Speaker 1: a statement, the City of Santa Monica places the highest 52 00:03:33,400 --> 00:03:39,000 Speaker 1: value want community safety. Wow, well, we're gonna get John 53 00:03:39,080 --> 00:03:41,760 Speaker 1: Alley on here, and he's been on our show quite 54 00:03:41,760 --> 00:03:46,480 Speaker 1: a few times. And I tell you, John, it's wonderful 55 00:03:46,520 --> 00:03:50,520 Speaker 1: what you did here. I cannot believe how how stubborn 56 00:03:50,560 --> 00:03:54,840 Speaker 1: and resistant city government is, the city council and the mayor. 57 00:03:54,880 --> 00:03:58,000 Speaker 1: I mean, they're watching the place rot in front of 58 00:03:58,000 --> 00:04:02,360 Speaker 1: their eyes. You right, that eighty five percent of residents 59 00:04:02,440 --> 00:04:09,760 Speaker 1: no longer visit downtown. That's correct, John, and can Yeah, 60 00:04:09,800 --> 00:04:14,880 Speaker 1: we don't go anymore. And I guess hardly anybody goes anymore. 61 00:04:17,360 --> 00:04:20,320 Speaker 1: The message draped across the building is a result of 62 00:04:20,400 --> 00:04:24,760 Speaker 1: just one more year of frustration and disappointment. Forty to 63 00:04:24,839 --> 00:04:27,800 Speaker 1: fifty people contributed time and dollars in effort to get 64 00:04:27,800 --> 00:04:31,440 Speaker 1: that sign designed and printed, and by posting it, we're 65 00:04:31,520 --> 00:04:33,800 Speaker 1: united and fool. We can raise the ante with the 66 00:04:33,800 --> 00:04:39,440 Speaker 1: city council. We're heartbroken because nothing's been done in the 67 00:04:39,520 --> 00:04:41,919 Speaker 1: last year. We have no hatred for the homeless. We 68 00:04:42,000 --> 00:04:45,039 Speaker 1: want them moved, we want the existing laws enforced, and 69 00:04:45,120 --> 00:04:47,040 Speaker 1: we want the homeless people moved to the empty buildings 70 00:04:47,040 --> 00:04:52,120 Speaker 1: the city owns that can easily house the overnight homeless 71 00:04:52,120 --> 00:04:57,640 Speaker 1: in shelter capacity. What has been the response so far 72 00:04:57,720 --> 00:05:03,240 Speaker 1: from residents you're hearing anything, It's been and overwhelmingly positive. 73 00:05:03,960 --> 00:05:10,520 Speaker 1: We've had some city leaders call and complain and make threats. 74 00:05:12,600 --> 00:05:15,240 Speaker 1: We've had a couple of people drive by honking horns 75 00:05:15,279 --> 00:05:23,080 Speaker 1: at individuals, homes and businesses, but it's been overwhelmingly very positive. 76 00:05:23,760 --> 00:05:28,320 Speaker 1: The vast majority of residents and owners see their own 77 00:05:28,360 --> 00:05:32,320 Speaker 1: employees being hit over the head, accosted, robbed, Even the 78 00:05:32,400 --> 00:05:35,760 Speaker 1: city maintenance workers, even the safety ambassadors, some of them 79 00:05:35,760 --> 00:05:39,880 Speaker 1: are attacked while they're working they're attacking the safety ambassadors. 80 00:05:40,400 --> 00:05:46,560 Speaker 1: We still have them. They're got a hell of a job. Yeah, 81 00:05:46,600 --> 00:05:49,880 Speaker 1: you're quoting here, which I want to talk about. Many 82 00:05:49,920 --> 00:05:53,120 Speaker 1: of our city council even referred to them as unhoused 83 00:05:53,200 --> 00:05:59,520 Speaker 1: sidewalk citizens. Wow, that's true. We have a new mayor 84 00:05:59,720 --> 00:06:02,040 Speaker 1: that a year and a half ago told the city 85 00:06:02,080 --> 00:06:07,640 Speaker 1: council that she wants a secure and safe downtown Santa Monica, 86 00:06:07,760 --> 00:06:11,080 Speaker 1: but she doesn't want to see police. We have an 87 00:06:11,080 --> 00:06:15,200 Speaker 1: outgoing mayor who was so proud of all of the 88 00:06:15,240 --> 00:06:19,240 Speaker 1: homeless services offered, invited the homeless from Malibu to come 89 00:06:19,279 --> 00:06:23,000 Speaker 1: to Santa Monica and criticize neighboring cities for the efforts 90 00:06:23,040 --> 00:06:27,160 Speaker 1: they were making to bring in the homeless. Who is this? 91 00:06:28,080 --> 00:06:32,479 Speaker 1: Who are these people? What are their names? Our current 92 00:06:32,520 --> 00:06:36,160 Speaker 1: mayor is Gleim Davis, and the outgoing mayor is Sue 93 00:06:36,360 --> 00:06:39,159 Speaker 1: himmel Rich. Yes, Sue himmel Rich. Well remember talking to 94 00:06:39,160 --> 00:06:43,240 Speaker 1: you about her. And the new mayor is Gleim Yes, 95 00:06:43,839 --> 00:06:47,680 Speaker 1: Gleam Davis. She has been on the council and was 96 00:06:47,839 --> 00:06:52,760 Speaker 1: mayor once before during twenty nineteen. So this is no 97 00:06:52,800 --> 00:06:56,440 Speaker 1: real change in leadership for you. So they embrace all 98 00:06:56,480 --> 00:07:01,320 Speaker 1: this because you list that they encourage sleeping out in 99 00:07:01,320 --> 00:07:06,480 Speaker 1: the open drug use. You're a nation defecation, sex and 100 00:07:06,680 --> 00:07:11,400 Speaker 1: violent out person. Well, while the sign, while the message 101 00:07:11,440 --> 00:07:15,480 Speaker 1: was being draped on the building, we witnessed too homeless 102 00:07:15,520 --> 00:07:17,720 Speaker 1: fighting with each other. One had a knife and the 103 00:07:17,760 --> 00:07:20,600 Speaker 1: other had brass knuckles. I don't know what the result 104 00:07:20,720 --> 00:07:23,840 Speaker 1: was because they ran down the alley. That's three hours 105 00:07:23,920 --> 00:07:27,520 Speaker 1: later behind my building there was yet another person shooting 106 00:07:27,600 --> 00:07:32,320 Speaker 1: up with heroin. And that's a daily occurrence. We have 107 00:07:32,440 --> 00:07:35,760 Speaker 1: employees at work in the restaurants that can't use public 108 00:07:35,800 --> 00:07:38,920 Speaker 1: transportation or the metro. It's just too dangerous. They refused 109 00:07:38,920 --> 00:07:43,400 Speaker 1: to do it, and now they're being dropped off because 110 00:07:43,440 --> 00:07:45,720 Speaker 1: when they parked their cars, they're attacked and their cars 111 00:07:45,720 --> 00:07:49,280 Speaker 1: are attacked. There's been five tire slashings that I know 112 00:07:49,360 --> 00:07:52,480 Speaker 1: of in the last two months. We've got a great 113 00:07:52,480 --> 00:07:55,000 Speaker 1: police department, We've got a great police chief. They're doing 114 00:07:55,000 --> 00:07:58,920 Speaker 1: their very best, but we don't feel they're supported by 115 00:07:58,960 --> 00:08:02,480 Speaker 1: the council. The residents support them, the business owners support them, 116 00:08:02,960 --> 00:08:09,000 Speaker 1: but we're doubt well, why do the residents elect these people? Well, unfortunately, 117 00:08:09,040 --> 00:08:12,760 Speaker 1: like the rest of La, less than forty percent of 118 00:08:13,080 --> 00:08:17,920 Speaker 1: voters in Santa Monica vote and we thought that would 119 00:08:18,000 --> 00:08:22,360 Speaker 1: change John and Ken because the parks about seventy five 120 00:08:22,360 --> 00:08:25,960 Speaker 1: percent of the residents rent. They live in apartments, so 121 00:08:26,040 --> 00:08:30,080 Speaker 1: the parks are their backyards and the promenade has been 122 00:08:30,120 --> 00:08:33,520 Speaker 1: their living room. That's what everybody calls it. But the 123 00:08:33,600 --> 00:08:36,680 Speaker 1: parks are unavailable because the grassy areas now are being 124 00:08:36,840 --> 00:08:42,000 Speaker 1: used as full time for homeless. The county, supported by 125 00:08:42,240 --> 00:08:48,880 Speaker 1: city funds Santa Monica Funds, has continued to distribute clean needles, 126 00:08:50,280 --> 00:08:53,079 Speaker 1: so there's no incentive for these homeless to leave. They 127 00:08:53,120 --> 00:08:57,400 Speaker 1: gather and now the distribution the city. We brought this 128 00:08:57,480 --> 00:09:01,240 Speaker 1: to the city's attention. They did. They sent a letter 129 00:09:01,280 --> 00:09:04,280 Speaker 1: to the county asking that the program being moved indoors, 130 00:09:04,840 --> 00:09:08,120 Speaker 1: which we were fine with. But the county's response was 131 00:09:08,200 --> 00:09:12,640 Speaker 1: to increase the program and spread it to other parks 132 00:09:12,800 --> 00:09:15,720 Speaker 1: for three parks now and to the promenade and to 133 00:09:15,760 --> 00:09:19,160 Speaker 1: the garages. So we have county workers coming at unannounced 134 00:09:19,240 --> 00:09:23,800 Speaker 1: hours distributing needles. And the only reason that the cities 135 00:09:23,840 --> 00:09:26,520 Speaker 1: sent a letter to the county was that the city 136 00:09:26,520 --> 00:09:28,720 Speaker 1: attorney felt that there could be a lawsuit with a 137 00:09:28,800 --> 00:09:33,240 Speaker 1: child in a park stepping over a needle, and there'd 138 00:09:33,280 --> 00:09:35,640 Speaker 1: be there'd be trouble and there'd be injury. But this 139 00:09:35,800 --> 00:09:38,400 Speaker 1: is you have people dying. You say, there's four to 140 00:09:38,480 --> 00:09:42,720 Speaker 1: five people every month dying in the parks, Palisades Park, 141 00:09:42,800 --> 00:09:47,440 Speaker 1: Tongva Read Park, Douglas Park, in the downtown area, in garages. 142 00:09:48,160 --> 00:09:51,679 Speaker 1: So they're they're killing dozens of people with these programs. 143 00:09:54,600 --> 00:09:59,680 Speaker 1: It's it's what happens when a police department is defunded 144 00:10:00,400 --> 00:10:03,760 Speaker 1: or when sworn officers are transferred, as they were in 145 00:10:03,800 --> 00:10:07,840 Speaker 1: Santa Monica after May twenty twenty, the riot. And so 146 00:10:07,880 --> 00:10:12,000 Speaker 1: the people that need the help most, the residents, the 147 00:10:12,000 --> 00:10:16,280 Speaker 1: people that use the parks, the homeless, they're not getting 148 00:10:16,280 --> 00:10:19,320 Speaker 1: the attention they need. The police are overworked, they're doing 149 00:10:19,400 --> 00:10:22,560 Speaker 1: the best job they can. Can't go back to the 150 00:10:22,559 --> 00:10:26,079 Speaker 1: election for a second. Were there any candidates, serious candidates 151 00:10:26,280 --> 00:10:30,520 Speaker 1: who ran on stopping all this nonsense and they couldn't 152 00:10:30,559 --> 00:10:35,240 Speaker 1: get the votes. There were two candidates that ran on 153 00:10:35,440 --> 00:10:38,880 Speaker 1: stopping all this nonsense and did not get enough votes. 154 00:10:40,320 --> 00:10:44,520 Speaker 1: And there was a candidate that won that was supported 155 00:10:44,520 --> 00:10:49,200 Speaker 1: by the police, Lane and Negrete, and she was on 156 00:10:49,240 --> 00:10:53,000 Speaker 1: the council and she was elected for her first elected term. 157 00:10:53,480 --> 00:10:56,800 Speaker 1: So we're hoping and praying and we believe and confident 158 00:10:56,840 --> 00:10:59,079 Speaker 1: in her that she'll She's on our side. She's a 159 00:10:59,120 --> 00:11:02,280 Speaker 1: business owner and she understands that she has people outside 160 00:11:02,280 --> 00:11:06,680 Speaker 1: her door most days. She has a music store, and 161 00:11:06,720 --> 00:11:08,160 Speaker 1: she has the same problem that we have on the 162 00:11:08,200 --> 00:11:14,959 Speaker 1: promenade and in downtown. This is astonishing, especially because it fell. 163 00:11:15,240 --> 00:11:20,920 Speaker 1: The city fell from such heights. It was so much 164 00:11:20,960 --> 00:11:23,880 Speaker 1: fun to go there. There were so many great restaurants 165 00:11:23,880 --> 00:11:28,760 Speaker 1: and great stores and beautiful parks, and I'm just why 166 00:11:28,760 --> 00:11:33,040 Speaker 1: would you want to give up all that for drug 167 00:11:33,080 --> 00:11:38,240 Speaker 1: addicts and mental patients to give them a playground to 168 00:11:38,400 --> 00:11:42,719 Speaker 1: die in. It's almost like a cult is taken over 169 00:11:42,760 --> 00:11:45,920 Speaker 1: the city and you can't reach people who are in 170 00:11:46,000 --> 00:11:53,400 Speaker 1: a cult. The city still feels they can sell solve 171 00:11:53,480 --> 00:11:56,920 Speaker 1: the homeless and the addiction problem by building more housing, 172 00:11:57,320 --> 00:12:02,880 Speaker 1: and that's just not going to work. Well, Wow, I 173 00:12:03,000 --> 00:12:07,120 Speaker 1: just have it's amazing to watch this because I'm in 174 00:12:07,120 --> 00:12:10,400 Speaker 1: Santa Monica most days during the week, and it's just 175 00:12:10,679 --> 00:12:14,640 Speaker 1: shocking to witness this in front of your eyes. And 176 00:12:14,720 --> 00:12:16,880 Speaker 1: you know, we've had you on many times and others, 177 00:12:17,200 --> 00:12:19,679 Speaker 1: and so we've gotten a detailed play by play of 178 00:12:19,720 --> 00:12:24,359 Speaker 1: what's gone on, and it's shocking how stubborn and resistant 179 00:12:24,400 --> 00:12:28,960 Speaker 1: and chest don't. I don't. I don't have words to 180 00:12:28,960 --> 00:12:31,240 Speaker 1: describe this. I don't. I don't understand what's going on. 181 00:12:32,760 --> 00:12:36,640 Speaker 1: The citizenry is desensitized. They don't want to see it. 182 00:12:36,679 --> 00:12:39,080 Speaker 1: And the sad thing is it's happening as much during 183 00:12:39,120 --> 00:12:42,440 Speaker 1: the day and sleeping on streets during the day as 184 00:12:43,120 --> 00:12:47,320 Speaker 1: it was happening at night a year ago. So it's 185 00:12:47,320 --> 00:12:49,960 Speaker 1: gotten worse. And we just would love to have the 186 00:12:49,960 --> 00:12:54,280 Speaker 1: city council, individually, without protection, without police escort, maybe with 187 00:12:54,360 --> 00:12:57,400 Speaker 1: their spouse or partner, walk down the promenade, walk down 188 00:12:57,600 --> 00:13:01,280 Speaker 1: downtown by themselves and see what it's like. See what 189 00:13:01,320 --> 00:13:03,040 Speaker 1: it's like to open up a store and have to 190 00:13:03,080 --> 00:13:08,680 Speaker 1: walk over feces and urine and people holding a knife 191 00:13:08,679 --> 00:13:11,720 Speaker 1: and yelling at you or punning your door. We're getting 192 00:13:11,760 --> 00:13:17,319 Speaker 1: four to five storefronts smashed still per month. I barricaded 193 00:13:17,360 --> 00:13:22,400 Speaker 1: my store because it was costing over a thousand dollars 194 00:13:22,400 --> 00:13:25,080 Speaker 1: more than that to replace the glass every every time 195 00:13:25,080 --> 00:13:27,840 Speaker 1: it was broken. I see endless empty storefronts, or they're 196 00:13:27,840 --> 00:13:31,200 Speaker 1: boarded up, or they have yeah gains in front of 197 00:13:31,240 --> 00:13:33,640 Speaker 1: them now.

They got seventy two thousand students 218 00:14:44,720 --> 00:14:47,680 Speaker 1: to sign up but before you get excited, the district 219 00:14:47,760 --> 00:14:50,920 Speaker 1: has on nearly half a million students, right, so for 220 00:14:51,360 --> 00:14:53,320 Speaker 1: one out of six roughly, what are they going to do? 221 00:14:53,400 --> 00:14:55,000 Speaker 1: What are they going to do on those two days? 222 00:14:55,960 --> 00:14:59,160 Speaker 1: Do you want an idea?

My wife is a fourth grade teacher 224 00:15:03,240 --> 00:15:05,600 Speaker 1: for the LA Unified School District. She's been teaching for 225 00:15:05,600 --> 00:15:08,640 Speaker 1: the past two extra days. She confirms it's a waste 226 00:15:08,680 --> 00:15:11,600 Speaker 1: of time and money. She's teaching students that she has 227 00:15:11,640 --> 00:15:14,320 Speaker 1: never met in a classroom that is not her own. 228 00:15:15,000 --> 00:15:18,960 Speaker 1: She's had her teaching time interrupted by dance teachers and 229 00:15:19,160 --> 00:15:23,280 Speaker 1: mandatory trips to the library. Furthermore, students have not brought 230 00:15:23,320 --> 00:15:26,560 Speaker 1: their computers and do not have the tools necessary to participate. 231 00:15:27,200 --> 00:15:29,640 Speaker 1: My wife has been challenged by a wide spectrum of 232 00:15:29,640 --> 00:15:32,760 Speaker 1: students in her class. One of her new fourth grade 233 00:15:32,800 --> 00:15:35,520 Speaker 1: students does not know the sounds that letters make and 234 00:15:35,560 --> 00:15:39,440 Speaker 1: cannot read in what grade?

You don't see this in the teacher's press release. 240 00:16:03,040 --> 00:16:05,680 Speaker 1: You don't see this in the ELSA Times. Do you what? 241 00:16:05,480 --> 00:16:09,920 Speaker 1: What's really the world? You've got students in fourth grade? 242 00:16:09,960 --> 00:16:13,080 Speaker 1: What are you nine and fourth grade? Yeah?

Now, so there's 244 00:16:16,600 --> 00:16:19,720 Speaker 1: a nine year old and they can't make the sound 245 00:16:19,840 --> 00:16:23,000 Speaker 1: of a letter no, which is key to figuring out 246 00:16:23,000 --> 00:16:27,640 Speaker 1: the word right, because we're talking about everybody suddenly magically 247 00:16:27,680 --> 00:16:34,880 Speaker 1: graduated this year. Now, this student got promoted first, second, third, 248 00:16:34,920 --> 00:16:38,720 Speaker 1: fourth grade without ever once managing to learn a single 249 00:16:38,760 --> 00:16:42,520 Speaker 1: alphabet sound. Well, give them credit for sending her for 250 00:16:42,560 --> 00:16:44,720 Speaker 1: the two acceleration days to see if they can make 251 00:16:44,760 --> 00:16:47,080 Speaker 1: all that up. Can you learn to read in two 252 00:16:47,200 --> 00:16:53,680 Speaker 1: classroom sessions? He writes, She's in a classroom with ten students, 253 00:16:53,760 --> 00:16:57,040 Speaker 1: two credential teachers in a classroom aide. But the teachers 254 00:16:57,080 --> 00:16:59,360 Speaker 1: have been left to their own devices to evaluate each student, 255 00:16:59,400 --> 00:17:03,000 Speaker 1: identify their needs, and manage a wide variety of learning difficulties. 256 00:17:03,160 --> 00:17:05,960 Speaker 1: And two days and then it's over and everybody's going 257 00:17:06,000 --> 00:17:08,080 Speaker 1: home for Christmas.

Nobody cares anymore on 267 00:17:40,920 --> 00:17:43,120 Speaker 1: the in Instead, we're being told, oh no, we're gonna 268 00:17:43,119 --> 00:17:45,399 Speaker 1: do acceleration days to make up those lost time, and 269 00:17:45,480 --> 00:17:48,320 Speaker 1: we're got we've got a higher graduation rates.

Eric Michael 332 00:21:57,920 --> 00:22:01,800 Speaker 1: Garcetti an American politician who does the forty second mayor 333 00:22:01,840 --> 00:22:05,000 Speaker 1: of Los Angeles from twenty thirteen until twenty twenty two. 334 00:22:05,440 --> 00:22:08,800 Speaker 1: We can now thankfully call him the former mayor of 335 00:22:08,880 --> 00:22:12,040 Speaker 1: Los Angeles. And the phone still hot has not rung 336 00:22:12,680 --> 00:22:15,879 Speaker 1: for that Indian ambassadorship. No. Fox News just did a 337 00:22:15,920 --> 00:22:18,920 Speaker 1: story like yesterday saying that the White House is insisting 338 00:22:18,960 --> 00:22:23,840 Speaker 1: the nomination is still alive and they still are optimistic 339 00:22:23,880 --> 00:22:27,280 Speaker 1: it we'll get through the full US Senate, but they're 340 00:22:27,320 --> 00:22:29,679 Speaker 1: going out a session in a couple of days. So yeah, 341 00:22:29,720 --> 00:22:33,680 Speaker 1: I mean, unless he does that rears recess appointment maneuver, 342 00:22:34,160 --> 00:22:36,080 Speaker 1: that would be the only thing that would make which 343 00:22:36,080 --> 00:22:39,919 Speaker 1: would give make Garcetti the acting Ambassador for a temporary 344 00:22:39,920 --> 00:22:43,440 Speaker 1: period of time. Why are Scarcetti the hack of the year, Well, 345 00:22:43,480 --> 00:22:47,399 Speaker 1: it's pretty simple. It's almost nine years accumulated and since 346 00:22:47,600 --> 00:22:49,720 Speaker 1: he's going to be ex mayor soon and we think 347 00:22:49,720 --> 00:22:53,159 Speaker 1: he'll be in the trash heap of politicians, this probably 348 00:22:53,160 --> 00:22:55,000 Speaker 1: won't come to our attention anymore that we need to 349 00:22:55,000 --> 00:22:57,679 Speaker 1: throw him in the dumpster. So we believe we need 350 00:22:57,720 --> 00:22:59,719 Speaker 1: to make him Hack of the year. This is the final, 351 00:23:00,960 --> 00:23:03,640 Speaker 1: the final honor for destroying Los Angeles when I think 352 00:23:03,680 --> 00:23:06,240 Speaker 1: it is. When he came into office in twenty thirteen, 353 00:23:06,680 --> 00:23:09,240 Speaker 1: homelessness was a tiny fraction of what it is now. 354 00:23:09,680 --> 00:23:14,480 Speaker 1: A garbage was a tiny fraction, Crime was significantly lower, 355 00:23:14,760 --> 00:23:20,000 Speaker 1: and he has brought in immense amounts of crime. Homelessness 356 00:23:20,000 --> 00:23:24,680 Speaker 1: just insane drug addicts on the street, mental patience, left unattended, 357 00:23:25,000 --> 00:23:28,960 Speaker 1: death on the street. It's now like two what two thousand, yeah, 358 00:23:29,119 --> 00:23:32,959 Speaker 1: two thousand a year now die in the streets, and 359 00:23:33,000 --> 00:23:36,439 Speaker 1: then all thet ye think about this. I mean he 360 00:23:36,440 --> 00:23:39,120 Speaker 1: was elected in twenty thirteen. I would say the first term. 361 00:23:40,040 --> 00:23:41,560 Speaker 1: I don't think we threw him at the dumpster. I 362 00:23:41,600 --> 00:23:45,639 Speaker 1: don't remember, but you know it was past Proposition forty seven. 363 00:23:45,720 --> 00:23:47,720 Speaker 1: They did a lot of things dealing with the homeless 364 00:23:47,720 --> 00:23:50,560 Speaker 1: that made the problem worse through the justice system. And 365 00:23:50,640 --> 00:23:53,280 Speaker 1: this guy the last three years, I'm now going to say, 366 00:23:53,600 --> 00:23:56,679 Speaker 1: has done absolutely nothing. Remember back in twenty eighteen and 367 00:23:56,720 --> 00:24:00,399 Speaker 1: twenty nineteen, he was making his appearances with his idea 368 00:24:00,520 --> 00:24:03,880 Speaker 1: to put a homeless encampment in every council district. I'm 369 00:24:03,920 --> 00:24:06,679 Speaker 1: not saying those are good ideas, but he ran for 370 00:24:06,800 --> 00:24:09,880 Speaker 1: president in twenty twenty. There was no interest in that, 371 00:24:10,320 --> 00:24:12,400 Speaker 1: and then he just gave up because he was tired 372 00:24:12,400 --> 00:24:15,320 Speaker 1: of LA's problems. He says things now in interviews like 373 00:24:16,040 --> 00:24:19,000 Speaker 1: the homeless issue, I don't know that any one mayor 374 00:24:19,040 --> 00:24:21,680 Speaker 1: could really make a dent in that. He's like making 375 00:24:21,760 --> 00:24:25,280 Speaker 1: excuses now for the fact that he's done nothing he didn't, 376 00:24:25,320 --> 00:24:28,040 Speaker 1: he didn't try. He withdrew from the job the last 377 00:24:28,040 --> 00:24:30,160 Speaker 1: two years. Yeah, I think so. I think you think 378 00:24:30,200 --> 00:24:33,680 Speaker 1: it's like a seriously a depression. Was he just laying 379 00:24:33,720 --> 00:24:36,760 Speaker 1: on the floor in his home? Well bring, I mean, 380 00:24:37,000 --> 00:24:40,000 Speaker 1: I think the ambassador nomination gave him a happy jolt 381 00:24:40,320 --> 00:24:41,960 Speaker 1: for at least a while. That's a year and a 382 00:24:42,000 --> 00:24:44,760 Speaker 1: half agoin now now, because I mean, he had his 383 00:24:44,840 --> 00:24:47,800 Speaker 1: sight set on being a Secretary of Cabinet secretary. But 384 00:24:47,800 --> 00:24:51,119 Speaker 1: the reason that got derailed the ambassadors ship was again 385 00:24:51,160 --> 00:24:55,200 Speaker 1: in action. Yeah, he would do any j Rick Jacobs 386 00:24:55,200 --> 00:24:59,560 Speaker 1: is running amuck sexually assaulting everybody in sight, and Darsetti 387 00:24:59,680 --> 00:25:04,679 Speaker 1: just won't do anything. He just wouldn't work. No, he 388 00:25:04,720 --> 00:25:08,280 Speaker 1: wouldn't take anything on back to basics, Mayor. I mean, 389 00:25:08,320 --> 00:25:10,280 Speaker 1: we just did a story like a week ago from 390 00:25:10,320 --> 00:25:13,680 Speaker 1: Curved about the sidewalks which he promised to fix in 391 00:25:13,800 --> 00:25:16,600 Speaker 1: what they fixed one percent one percent of the sidewalks. 392 00:25:17,280 --> 00:25:20,439 Speaker 1: Couldn't do the simplest of things when there was questions 393 00:25:20,440 --> 00:25:23,199 Speaker 1: to improving life, when there was pushedback on his road diets, 394 00:25:23,280 --> 00:25:27,840 Speaker 1: he just turned and turned tail and ran. Gave up. Yeah, 395 00:25:27,880 --> 00:25:31,520 Speaker 1: he gave up on everything, Like like there there's certain 396 00:25:31,560 --> 00:25:35,480 Speaker 1: mayors who make decisions that are destructive. His destruction was 397 00:25:35,600 --> 00:25:39,080 Speaker 1: refusing to do anything while the world was coming apart 398 00:25:41,160 --> 00:25:43,640 Speaker 1: and every a few years back with all the trash. 399 00:25:43,720 --> 00:25:46,600 Speaker 1: This is probably before the pandemic. The problem with there 400 00:25:46,680 --> 00:25:49,240 Speaker 1: was just trash everywhere. I remember there was some city 401 00:25:49,240 --> 00:25:53,640 Speaker 1: employees who were getting bit by rats. Remember that whole thing. Yeah, yeah, yeah, 402 00:25:53,640 --> 00:25:57,480 Speaker 1: that woman remember, yeah, she got she got some disease. Yeah, 403 00:25:57,520 --> 00:26:00,159 Speaker 1: she got some terrible disease from the rat bite. And 404 00:26:00,240 --> 00:26:03,639 Speaker 1: everybody pretended that it didn't really happen, right right. That 405 00:26:03,760 --> 00:26:08,719 Speaker 1: was in response. I just a lot of denial. I mean, 406 00:26:08,760 --> 00:26:10,080 Speaker 1: how could he sit in a job for nine and 407 00:26:10,119 --> 00:26:14,040 Speaker 1: a half years and just do nothing and should tell you? 408 00:26:14,320 --> 00:26:18,000 Speaker 1: I really I couldn't. I used to have the TV 409 00:26:18,200 --> 00:26:20,480 Speaker 1: on in the other room during the pandemic because you 410 00:26:20,520 --> 00:26:22,600 Speaker 1: never know what was going to happen with news conferences. 411 00:26:22,680 --> 00:26:25,240 Speaker 1: Remember you come out of the United fifteen, oh my god, 412 00:26:25,320 --> 00:26:29,160 Speaker 1: and make that awful stupid statement of the press about 413 00:26:29,160 --> 00:26:33,480 Speaker 1: Angelino's in his soft sort of preaching manner. It was 414 00:26:33,520 --> 00:26:37,359 Speaker 1: all this silly poetry. You always always right. He wanted 415 00:26:37,400 --> 00:26:40,200 Speaker 1: to be eloquent, He wants to be remembered as the 416 00:26:40,400 --> 00:26:42,600 Speaker 1: saying just the right things at the right time. But 417 00:26:42,640 --> 00:26:44,720 Speaker 1: he sounded like an eight year old trying to write 418 00:26:45,000 --> 00:26:47,439 Speaker 1: an eight year old phony, trying to write Hallmark cards. 419 00:26:47,960 --> 00:26:51,520 Speaker 1: That's what he That's what he sounded like.

That was like the lowest turnout in almost 427 00:27:12,200 --> 00:27:15,399 Speaker 1: a history of that. There were so few votes they 428 00:27:15,480 --> 00:27:18,520 Speaker 1: moved the election and ended up giving him an extra 429 00:27:18,640 --> 00:27:21,840 Speaker 1: year and a half so they could align the election 430 00:27:21,920 --> 00:27:25,440 Speaker 1: cycle with the governors.

And finally, this development which brings us 498 00:31:18,920 --> 00:31:21,160 Speaker 1: back to a story we talked about earlier in the show, 499 00:31:22,040 --> 00:31:25,560 Speaker 1: that's the Idaho college student murders. Idaho police said that 500 00:31:25,640 --> 00:31:30,440 Speaker 1: the abandoned white twenty thirteen Hunlantra found in Eugene, Oregon, 501 00:31:30,440 --> 00:31:35,120 Speaker 1: on December seventeenth, is not related to the murders. They 502 00:31:35,120 --> 00:31:38,360 Speaker 1: have spoken with the owner. This was a damaged car 503 00:31:38,480 --> 00:31:41,040 Speaker 1: that apparently a homeless guy was found sleeping in. It 504 00:31:41,080 --> 00:31:43,800 Speaker 1: was right next to a Panda Express. I was looking 505 00:31:43,840 --> 00:31:46,080 Speaker 1: through the photos and then I looked on a map 506 00:31:46,200 --> 00:31:48,720 Speaker 1: and half block away is a home depot and then 507 00:31:48,760 --> 00:31:51,920 Speaker 1: a park and this was there's a Lows home improvement. 508 00:31:51,960 --> 00:31:54,200 Speaker 1: I'm looking at the map right now. There's there's a 509 00:31:54,680 --> 00:31:57,840 Speaker 1: thrift store across the street. So it wasn't abandoned in 510 00:31:57,920 --> 00:32:02,320 Speaker 1: this rural but it's all smashed up in the front, right, yeah, right, 511 00:32:02,360 --> 00:32:07,240 Speaker 1: because they're smashed up cars everywhere. The car is registered 512 00:32:07,240 --> 00:32:12,680 Speaker 1: at a Colorado A female owner was contacted and she's 513 00:32:12,720 --> 00:32:15,800 Speaker 1: not believed to have any relation to any property in Moscow, 514 00:32:15,840 --> 00:32:20,120 Speaker 1: Idaho or the ongoing murder investigation. In fact, the police 515 00:32:20,320 --> 00:32:23,840 Speaker 1: said from Moscow, Idaho tonight asking the public to stop 516 00:32:23,880 --> 00:32:26,680 Speaker 1: contacting the owner. So I guess people did their little 517 00:32:26,800 --> 00:32:29,800 Speaker 1: detective work online and maybe figured out who might own 518 00:32:29,840 --> 00:32:32,600 Speaker 1: the car, and they were calling her to hound her 519 00:32:32,640 --> 00:32:34,960 Speaker 1: over the murders. I don't know how did they figure 520 00:32:35,000 --> 00:32:38,160 Speaker 1: that out. I mean, there is a vehicle identification number 521 00:32:38,160 --> 00:32:43,000 Speaker 1: and the cops can quickly figure that to trace the 522 00:32:43,120 --> 00:32:46,520 Speaker 1: previous police right, Yeah, but I don't know. It just 523 00:32:46,560 --> 00:32:51,960 Speaker 1: says that somehow they've maybe somebody up in the Eugene, 524 00:32:51,960 --> 00:32:55,080 Speaker 1: Oregon police tipped off people as to who they're looking 525 00:32:55,120 --> 00:32:58,840 Speaker 1: for or whatever. But on December seventeen, somebody said there's 526 00:32:58,840 --> 00:33:01,560 Speaker 1: somebody sleeping in a down's car, and they got there 527 00:33:01,600 --> 00:33:04,280 Speaker 1: and they feel the holes person this white launt thing. 528 00:33:04,840 --> 00:33:08,920 Speaker 1: They could be completely wrong, they could be somebody saw. 529 00:33:09,000 --> 00:33:11,840 Speaker 1: What shows you how a few clues there really are 530 00:33:12,000 --> 00:33:17,440 Speaker 1: that are public anyway. Yeah, honestly they've got nothing. They 531 00:33:18,040 --> 00:33:20,400 Speaker 1: they and and and they well we have other things 532 00:33:20,400 --> 00:33:27,040 Speaker 1: that were hiding. No, you don't, do you really think 533 00:33:27,040 --> 00:33:30,120 Speaker 1: this one's going big cold? I think I think after 534 00:33:30,640 --> 00:33:35,000 Speaker 1: after the holiday, everybody will have forgotten a story. Oh, 535 00:33:35,480 --> 00:33:38,600 Speaker 1: I think we're reaching the end of the attention span 536 00:33:38,680 --> 00:33:43,360 Speaker 1: for this. Well that's too bad. Yeah, Well, because they did. 537 00:33:43,600 --> 00:33:47,400 Speaker 1: I really thought something would pop up, because people who 538 00:33:47,480 --> 00:33:49,920 Speaker 1: do this tend to either brag or somehow they can't 539 00:33:49,960 --> 00:33:54,520 Speaker 1: help them sell something slips and somebody who heard them 540 00:33:54,520 --> 00:33:57,680 Speaker 1: say something or I mean, whoever did this? And I 541 00:33:57,720 --> 00:34:01,160 Speaker 1: do believe it's one person? Yeah, yeah, and he was 542 00:34:01,200 --> 00:34:04,000 Speaker 1: going after that girl Kayley gun called. He was because 543 00:34:04,000 --> 00:34:08,280 Speaker 1: she got really gouged. So and at this point everybody 544 00:34:08,280 --> 00:34:11,040 Speaker 1: who knows her would have been able to tell you 545 00:34:11,440 --> 00:34:15,520 Speaker 1: that she had a strange guy obsessed with her, or 546 00:34:15,640 --> 00:34:19,040 Speaker 1: that she rejected in some way. I'm thinking it's somebody 547 00:34:19,080 --> 00:34:21,680 Speaker 1: she wasn't really aware of that got obsessed with her 548 00:34:21,719 --> 00:34:24,920 Speaker 1: and felt spurned. That's what I'm thinking. But that's possible. 549 00:34:25,280 --> 00:34:29,959 Speaker 1: I have no idea. All right, Mark Thompson, who was cleared, Yeah, 550 00:34:30,000 --> 00:34:34,520 Speaker 1: in the case, yeah I was any personal interest do 551 00:34:34,560 --> 00:34:38,120 Speaker 1: you think I don't know? Your name came up and yeah, 552 00:34:38,520 --> 00:34:40,040 Speaker 1: I like to be. I'd like to be thought. It's 553 00:34:40,040 --> 00:34:41,520 Speaker 1: good to get your name out there. No matter what. 554 00:34:41,600 --> 00:34:44,000 Speaker 1: Although I think of the murder investigation, probably not the 555 00:34:44,040 --> 00:34:46,040 Speaker 1: best place. I got a call and he said, Nana, 556 00:34:46,120 --> 00:34:49,200 Speaker 1: he's all right. Well, when I need John as a 557 00:34:49,280 --> 00:34:56,120 Speaker 1: character reference, I'm in trouble. Walgreen's, CBS and other places 558 00:34:56,160 --> 00:34:59,440 Speaker 1: are limiting the places, meaning I guess Pharmacys limiting the 559 00:34:59,520 --> 00:35:03,480 Speaker 1: purchases of children's pain relief medicine because these respiratory illnesses 560 00:35:03,520 --> 00:35:06,920 Speaker 1: have risen so substantially that they're running out of the stuff. 561 00:35:08,200 --> 00:35:11,600 Speaker 1: Kind of yeah, apparently we'll talk more about it. The 562 00:35:11,719 --> 00:35:15,560 Speaker 1: Arctic blast, which is affecting travel on the East Coast. 563 00:35:15,600 --> 00:35:17,080 Speaker 1: Actually just got a call from a friend of mine 564 00:35:17,080 --> 00:35:19,560 Speaker 1: and needs to go to Chicago, and he's trying to 565 00:35:19,600 --> 00:35:21,879 Speaker 1: beat the storm to Chicago, but then it moves into 566 00:35:21,880 --> 00:35:24,279 Speaker 1: the East Coast and they're going to get rain and 567 00:35:24,320 --> 00:35:27,920 Speaker 1: then this because it's so warm and that's intense cold 568 00:35:28,000 --> 00:35:31,000 Speaker 1: behind the front. I was able to crack open some 569 00:35:31,080 --> 00:35:36,319 Speaker 1: of my meteorology background to kind of yaud and have 570 00:35:36,400 --> 00:35:40,120 Speaker 1: they named the storm yet? I hate that? Yeah, why 571 00:35:40,120 --> 00:35:44,040 Speaker 1: do they start doing that? Winter storms totally hack thing. 572 00:35:44,080 --> 00:35:47,520 Speaker 1: Weather channels started, and it's become a thing absolutely ridiculous. 573 00:35:47,560 --> 00:35:49,719 Speaker 1: You know, it's like a lot of the jargon that 574 00:35:49,719 --> 00:35:53,040 Speaker 1: they've come up with it's cool, but you know cyclone 575 00:35:53,080 --> 00:35:57,399 Speaker 1: bomb the bomb cyclone exactly but doesn't even make sense. Yeah, 576 00:35:59,400 --> 00:36:01,799 Speaker 1: it does not makes to just have to catch on, yeah, 577 00:36:02,040 --> 00:36:04,799 Speaker 1: exactly right. And Doctor Edwin Krupp's going to be with 578 00:36:04,800 --> 00:36:06,520 Speaker 1: a director of the Grip of Observatory. It's a pretty 579 00:36:06,520 --> 00:36:11,960 Speaker 1: good story, this shockwave that came through the Earth's magnetosphere. 580 00:36:13,960 --> 00:36:15,839 Speaker 1: Krupp is one of my favorite guests just for all 581 00:36:15,840 --> 00:36:18,279 Speaker 1: the things that related to astronomy from the Grip of Observatory. 582 00:36:18,320 --> 00:36:21,200 Speaker 1: But this particular event that occurred could have messed with 583 00:36:21,239 --> 00:36:23,480 Speaker 1: the communications worldwide. I'm gonna ask who could there be 584 00:36:23,560 --> 00:36:25,839 Speaker 1: another one? And what the timing is? And so it's 585 00:36:25,840 --> 00:36:28,239 Speaker 1: a big show boys, I'm excited. Yes, we can all 586 00:36:28,239 --> 00:36:31,000 Speaker 1: get knocked off the radio, all right, yes, yes, yes, 587 00:36:31,040 --> 00:36:35,319 Speaker 1: it's tricky, all right, you do it. Yeah, that's all right. 588 00:36:35,360 --> 00:36:38,520 Speaker 1: Marks up. They touched him go actually, as I think 589 00:36:38,560 --> 00:36:42,400 Speaker 1: about it, but anyway, he's in Conway and Michael Krosher 590 00:36:42,520 --> 00:36:45,240 Speaker 1: is the news kfi KS THD to Los Angeles, Serange 591 00:36:45,280 --> 00:36:47,680 Speaker 1: County live everywhere on the iHeartRadio app
