00:00:48,440 --> 00:00:52,400
Speaker 1: Today's the day that thieves can be charged with crimes

21
00:00:52,440 --> 00:00:56,960
Speaker 1: again and sent to jail. This is the day that

22
00:00:57,080 --> 00:01:01,000
Speaker 1: repeats drug users can be charged with time and sent

23
00:01:01,040 --> 00:01:02,440
Speaker 1: to either rehabber jam.

24
00:01:02,920 --> 00:01:07,520
Speaker 2: This is the day that fentanyl dealers can be sent

25
00:01:07,560 --> 00:01:09,160
Speaker 2: to jaim. How about that.

26
00:01:10,920 --> 00:01:15,759
Speaker 1: It's been ten years of George Gascon's Prop forty seven,

27
00:01:16,240 --> 00:01:20,720
Speaker 1: and finally people woke up last month and voted seventy

28
00:01:20,760 --> 00:01:24,960
Speaker 1: to thirty to get rid of that stupid law which

29
00:01:25,240 --> 00:01:29,760
Speaker 1: legalized theft, legalized public drug addiction, and for once now

30
00:01:29,760 --> 00:01:33,400
Speaker 1: we're going to go after the fetnel crisis. And no

31
00:01:33,800 --> 00:01:37,240
Speaker 1: one better to celebrate with than Todd Spitzer, the Orange

32
00:01:37,240 --> 00:01:40,920
Speaker 1: County District Attorney, because Todd joined us way back. I

33
00:01:40,920 --> 00:01:45,240
Speaker 1: think it was in February where well over one thousand

34
00:01:45,319 --> 00:01:48,280
Speaker 1: KFI listeners gathered at the Honda Center in Anaheim and

35
00:01:48,320 --> 00:01:52,480
Speaker 1: we had a signature gathering drive that day. People drove

36
00:01:52,520 --> 00:01:55,240
Speaker 1: in from all over the place and signed the petitions

37
00:01:55,280 --> 00:01:58,200
Speaker 1: and that's what helped get this on the ballot and

38
00:01:58,280 --> 00:02:02,960
Speaker 1: stayed on the ballot, fighting off Governor Newsom's machinations to

39
00:02:03,080 --> 00:02:06,000
Speaker 1: try to block this thing, and eventually it had passed

40
00:02:06,000 --> 00:02:09,440
Speaker 1: seventy thirty. Let's get Todd Spitzer on. Todd you should

41
00:02:09,480 --> 00:02:10,959
Speaker 1: you deserve congratulations too?

42
00:02:11,800 --> 00:02:13,799
Speaker 4: Well so do you? I mean, listen, John, that was

43
00:02:13,840 --> 00:02:16,120
Speaker 4: a great event. I want to thank Ray Lopez and

44
00:02:16,160 --> 00:02:19,079
Speaker 4: your entire crew. Look, this was a team effort, right,

45
00:02:19,160 --> 00:02:22,519
Speaker 4: I mean, but think about what you just said in

46
00:02:22,520 --> 00:02:25,720
Speaker 4: introducing the subject. We had forty seven to forty seven

47
00:02:25,760 --> 00:02:28,160
Speaker 4: ten years ago, and we had to live with this

48
00:02:28,360 --> 00:02:31,959
Speaker 4: for ten years, and things had to get so bad, right,

49
00:02:32,080 --> 00:02:36,000
Speaker 4: smashing grabs, people overdosing on Sentinel. Things had to get

50
00:02:36,200 --> 00:02:39,920
Speaker 4: so bad, And it took ten years to get some

51
00:02:40,040 --> 00:02:43,480
Speaker 4: laws on the books that might restore some sanity to

52
00:02:43,600 --> 00:02:46,480
Speaker 4: how we run our judicial you know, our judiciary and

53
00:02:46,560 --> 00:02:49,680
Speaker 4: our criminal justice system here in California. You said something

54
00:02:49,720 --> 00:02:53,639
Speaker 4: funny that when you said people finally woke up. You

55
00:02:53,720 --> 00:02:57,360
Speaker 4: got to remember, right, it's what Cospop forty seven was

56
00:02:57,480 --> 00:03:03,320
Speaker 4: woke ism, and the woke pride themselves on having been awakened.

57
00:03:04,000 --> 00:03:07,679
Speaker 4: And yet it was that whole world policy that everybody

58
00:03:07,720 --> 00:03:11,240
Speaker 4: can be rehabilitated, right, that no one should be held

59
00:03:11,280 --> 00:03:15,400
Speaker 4: responsible for anything that they do against another person or

60
00:03:15,440 --> 00:03:18,800
Speaker 4: society in terms of faft or other kinds of offenses.

61
00:03:18,960 --> 00:03:22,560
Speaker 4: I mean, people have lost their businesses, businesses have closed.

62
00:03:22,840 --> 00:03:26,440
Speaker 4: We came out of the pandemic and people are already struggling,

63
00:03:26,480 --> 00:03:29,400
Speaker 4: and then you have the smashing grabs and all this abuse.

64
00:03:29,560 --> 00:03:34,120
Speaker 4: Today you're gonna love this. We got our first case

65
00:03:34,360 --> 00:03:39,080
Speaker 4: under Prop thirty six from Fullerton Police Department today for

66
00:03:39,120 --> 00:03:42,600
Speaker 4: a repeat drug offender. So we got our first case

67
00:03:42,640 --> 00:03:44,880
Speaker 4: today already under Prop thirty six.

68
00:03:45,840 --> 00:03:48,240
Speaker 1: Now, what's going to happen to this guy, what's the

69
00:03:48,320 --> 00:03:49,720
Speaker 1: new method?

70
00:03:50,720 --> 00:03:51,040
Speaker 2: Welcome.

71
00:03:52,560 --> 00:03:54,720
Speaker 4: We're gonna have to review the case. But assuming and

72
00:03:54,760 --> 00:03:56,560
Speaker 4: I'm talking to the abstract because I haven't seen all

73
00:03:56,560 --> 00:03:59,320
Speaker 4: the facts, but let's assume this is a fileable case

74
00:03:59,520 --> 00:04:02,760
Speaker 4: and this person is a repeat drug offender. They're going

75
00:04:02,800 --> 00:04:06,560
Speaker 4: to be offered a program, and if they take the program, great,

76
00:04:06,760 --> 00:04:10,200
Speaker 4: go through the program, and maybe with this conviction hanging

77
00:04:10,280 --> 00:04:13,280
Speaker 4: over your head, you might change your behavior. But if

78
00:04:13,360 --> 00:04:16,960
Speaker 4: you don't change your behavior, because you've shown repeatedly that

79
00:04:17,040 --> 00:04:19,920
Speaker 4: you're not going to change your behavior, you're looking at

80
00:04:20,040 --> 00:04:22,960
Speaker 4: going to state prison. Now, you guys have a little

81
00:04:23,080 --> 00:04:27,279
Speaker 4: bumper on Chad Bianco, the sheriff of Riverside County, saying,

82
00:04:27,320 --> 00:04:29,760
Speaker 4: you know, hey, he doesn't have any jail beds that

83
00:04:29,839 --> 00:04:32,640
Speaker 4: are already under I think some kind of federal consent

84
00:04:32,680 --> 00:04:35,840
Speaker 4: to career something about you know, releasing people because they

85
00:04:35,839 --> 00:04:39,000
Speaker 4: have overcrowding. We don't have that problem in Orange County.

86
00:04:39,200 --> 00:04:41,560
Speaker 4: In fact, if you listen to our good Sheriff Don Barnes,

87
00:04:42,000 --> 00:04:44,120
Speaker 4: it's like he's got a sign right outside of our

88
00:04:44,200 --> 00:04:48,880
Speaker 4: jail room at the end. Okay, And we want people

89
00:04:49,040 --> 00:04:52,000
Speaker 4: to get treatment, We absolutely want them to get treatment.

90
00:04:52,160 --> 00:04:55,080
Speaker 4: But what people need to understand today, we're going to

91
00:04:55,200 --> 00:04:58,960
Speaker 4: have laws on the books that if the individual doesn't

92
00:04:58,960 --> 00:05:04,040
Speaker 4: take responsible for themselves and does something to change their

93
00:05:04,279 --> 00:05:08,279
Speaker 4: previous history and behavior, then they're going to go to prison.

94
00:05:08,360 --> 00:05:12,120
Speaker 4: And you know what this idea, oh from the governor right,

95
00:05:12,360 --> 00:05:15,240
Speaker 4: You're gonna have prison over crowding. We're gonna have all

96
00:05:15,240 --> 00:05:18,400
Speaker 4: these problems. We don't have enough. You know what, he

97
00:05:18,480 --> 00:05:21,560
Speaker 4: didn't listen to the electorate this whole entire time. He

98
00:05:21,680 --> 00:05:23,919
Speaker 4: tried to come up with that poison pill with the

99
00:05:23,960 --> 00:05:27,880
Speaker 4: bill packages to try to sabotage Prop thirty six. And

100
00:05:27,960 --> 00:05:30,839
Speaker 4: what did the voters say, Governor, you're still out of touch.

101
00:05:30,880 --> 00:05:32,880
Speaker 4: You don't even know what you're doing. And we're going

102
00:05:32,920 --> 00:05:35,000
Speaker 4: to take the law into our own hands. And that's

103
00:05:35,000 --> 00:05:37,440
Speaker 4: what the public did. It took the law into its

104
00:05:37,480 --> 00:05:38,120
Speaker 4: own hands.

105
00:05:38,960 --> 00:05:40,440
Speaker 2: They could build new prisons.

106
00:05:40,520 --> 00:05:43,560
Speaker 1: If we end up with so many people that has

107
00:05:43,600 --> 00:05:46,479
Speaker 1: to be that have to be incarcerated, that that's not

108
00:05:46,560 --> 00:05:49,120
Speaker 1: a problem. They've been closing prisons. They don't have to

109
00:05:49,200 --> 00:05:52,159
Speaker 1: do that. They can open up new ones or reopen

110
00:05:52,200 --> 00:05:54,800
Speaker 1: the old ones. I mean that that's nonsense. We should

111
00:05:54,800 --> 00:05:58,560
Speaker 1: have enough prisons to accommodate the current number of criminals

112
00:05:58,560 --> 00:06:01,920
Speaker 1: that need that need in car period. There's no magic

113
00:06:02,000 --> 00:06:04,800
Speaker 1: number of prisoners or a magic number of prisons.

114
00:06:05,760 --> 00:06:08,840
Speaker 4: No, there isn't. In California has some of the largest

115
00:06:08,880 --> 00:06:11,880
Speaker 4: numbers of gang members and other serious criminals in the

116
00:06:12,040 --> 00:06:14,520
Speaker 4: entire nation. So of course we're going to have prisons.

117
00:06:14,960 --> 00:06:19,000
Speaker 4: This idea that a state the size of California, with

118
00:06:19,480 --> 00:06:22,720
Speaker 4: all the issues that's facing California, and it's largest, right,

119
00:06:22,760 --> 00:06:25,560
Speaker 4: why people come here from all over the world, whether

120
00:06:25,600 --> 00:06:29,080
Speaker 4: it's Chile or Romania to commit crimes. You know, there's

121
00:06:29,080 --> 00:06:32,160
Speaker 4: a town hall tonight in the city of Irvine because

122
00:06:32,160 --> 00:06:38,040
Speaker 4: of you know, different burglaries that have occurred in last week.

123
00:06:38,080 --> 00:06:42,200
Speaker 4: And my point being is that we have tolerated people

124
00:06:42,240 --> 00:06:45,840
Speaker 4: coming from all over the world. John pointing out that

125
00:06:45,880 --> 00:06:49,240
Speaker 4: they can get away with these things because nothing happens

126
00:06:49,279 --> 00:06:52,080
Speaker 4: to them here in the United States or California. And

127
00:06:52,120 --> 00:06:56,560
Speaker 4: I'm hoping, I'm keeping my fingers crossed. We're ready, we're organized,

128
00:06:56,600 --> 00:06:58,800
Speaker 4: we have our act together, and we're going to start

129
00:06:58,800 --> 00:07:01,240
Speaker 4: prosecuting these cases and we're going to see what happens.

130
00:07:01,240 --> 00:07:03,440
Speaker 4: But just might mark my word, because you're going to

131
00:07:03,480 --> 00:07:06,160
Speaker 4: have me back on in about a year and you're

132
00:07:06,160 --> 00:07:08,200
Speaker 4: going to say, well, tell me how it's going. And

133
00:07:08,279 --> 00:07:10,640
Speaker 4: what Chad Bianco said is if you listen to his

134
00:07:10,720 --> 00:07:14,800
Speaker 4: sound bite, he said in that interview, I need the

135
00:07:14,800 --> 00:07:19,160
Speaker 4: cooperation of the Board of Supervisors and the state of California.

136
00:07:19,280 --> 00:07:21,480
Speaker 4: In other words, in order to make it work, it's

137
00:07:21,520 --> 00:07:24,400
Speaker 4: going to require cooperation from all levels of government. And

138
00:07:24,440 --> 00:07:29,720
Speaker 4: guess what Newsom and the state democratically controlled legislature want

139
00:07:29,960 --> 00:07:32,640
Speaker 4: Prop thirty six to fail so they can say I

140
00:07:32,720 --> 00:07:33,280
Speaker 4: told you so.

141
00:07:33,560 --> 00:07:34,520
Speaker 2: Yeah, I know.

142
00:07:34,680 --> 00:07:38,320
Speaker 1: And there's still a lot of woke county supervisors. We

143
00:07:38,440 --> 00:07:40,520
Speaker 1: have at least four of them here in La County,

144
00:07:40,920 --> 00:07:44,000
Speaker 1: and there's plenty of politicians that would like to undermine

145
00:07:44,080 --> 00:07:48,120
Speaker 1: the implementation of Prop thirty six. And this is where

146
00:07:48,160 --> 00:07:49,920
Speaker 1: the public's got to pay attention. The way they woke

147
00:07:50,000 --> 00:07:52,400
Speaker 1: up this year and voted for thirty six, they got

148
00:07:52,400 --> 00:07:55,240
Speaker 1: to wake up and pay attention to what city councils

149
00:07:55,360 --> 00:07:58,800
Speaker 1: and boards of supervisors and their legislators and the governor

150
00:07:58,920 --> 00:08:01,200
Speaker 1: do because they are going to work full time to

151
00:08:01,280 --> 00:08:03,960
Speaker 1: undermine everything that was accomplished in the last year.

152
00:08:05,160 --> 00:08:07,800
Speaker 4: Well, you've never been shy, that's what you do. And

153
00:08:07,840 --> 00:08:12,000
Speaker 4: you've You've perfected the science, and I've tried to do

154
00:08:12,080 --> 00:08:15,200
Speaker 4: it as the DA. We do not let these people rest.

155
00:08:15,320 --> 00:08:18,240
Speaker 4: We've exposed them for what they are. We've explained it

156
00:08:18,240 --> 00:08:20,880
Speaker 4: to the public. The public listens to you. You have

157
00:08:20,920 --> 00:08:24,680
Speaker 4: a huge following Orange County residents, three point three million people,

158
00:08:24,840 --> 00:08:27,800
Speaker 4: the sixth largest district attorney's office in the country that

159
00:08:27,920 --> 00:08:32,240
Speaker 4: I run. People listen. If you remember, Orange County past

160
00:08:32,280 --> 00:08:35,880
Speaker 4: Prop thirty six at higher numbers than any large county

161
00:08:35,880 --> 00:08:39,680
Speaker 4: in California. I'm so proud of the fact that Orange County.

162
00:08:40,120 --> 00:08:43,240
Speaker 4: You know, voters and citizens listen, and they don't want

163
00:08:43,280 --> 00:08:45,640
Speaker 4: to put up with this, and they expect a quality

164
00:08:45,640 --> 00:08:48,960
Speaker 4: of life in exchange for their taxes and their hard

165
00:08:49,040 --> 00:08:52,319
Speaker 4: working conditions and what they want for their families. And

166
00:08:52,880 --> 00:08:56,040
Speaker 4: your job and my job is to protect that for

167
00:08:56,120 --> 00:08:59,280
Speaker 4: the listening public and my constituents, so that we can

168
00:08:59,400 --> 00:09:02,560
Speaker 4: ensure them a quality of life that they deserve. No

169
00:09:02,600 --> 00:09:05,839
Speaker 4: one should ever be apologetic for wanting to live in

170
00:09:05,880 --> 00:09:06,720
Speaker 4: a safe community.

171
00:09:06,840 --> 00:09:07,760
Speaker 2: No, and you're right.

172
00:09:07,800 --> 00:09:11,559
Speaker 1: In Orange County, seventy six percent of voters voted for

173
00:09:11,640 --> 00:09:15,640
Speaker 1: Prop thirty six. I know this because I have the

174
00:09:15,640 --> 00:09:19,199
Speaker 1: the article you wrote in the Orange County Register last month.

175
00:09:19,920 --> 00:09:24,120
Speaker 1: That's how I learned that statistic. You're on top of things, Todd.

176
00:09:24,160 --> 00:09:26,800
Speaker 1: Thanks very much. I think we kicked this off last

177
00:09:26,840 --> 00:09:29,720
Speaker 1: February in a great manner that day, and that really

178
00:09:29,760 --> 00:09:31,880
Speaker 1: provided a lot of rocket fuel to the whole movement

179
00:09:31,920 --> 00:09:33,000
Speaker 1: here in southern California.

180
00:09:33,360 --> 00:09:33,800
Speaker 2: So thank you.

181
00:09:34,679 --> 00:09:36,280
Speaker 4: Keep up the good work, and thank you sir.

182
00:09:36,320 --> 00:09:37,040
Speaker 2: We'll talk soon.

183
00:09:37,120 --> 00:09:39,560
Speaker 1: Todd Spitzer, the Orange County DA, And yes, we will

184
00:09:39,559 --> 00:09:43,280
Speaker 1: be celebrating this all day. It's a rare day when

185
00:09:43,320 --> 00:09:47,119
Speaker 1: there's a new law that makes life more difficult for criminals,

186
00:09:48,679 --> 00:09:51,880
Speaker 1: and you don't put up with any excuses. You gave

187
00:09:51,920 --> 00:09:54,080
Speaker 1: it a ten year run. This was a ten year

188
00:09:54,120 --> 00:09:58,000
Speaker 1: social experiment and it was miserable. It was awful. We'll

189
00:09:58,040 --> 00:10:02,079
Speaker 1: continue discussing this when we come back. Deborah Mark, it

190
00:10:02,200 --> 00:10:03,120
Speaker 1: still is Deborah Marked.

191
00:10:03,240 --> 00:10:03,600
Speaker 3: Oh it is?

192
00:10:03,679 --> 00:10:07,559
Speaker 2: Yeah? Yeah, OK. KFI AM six forty and she's got

193
00:10:07,559 --> 00:10:07,959
Speaker 2: the news.

194
00:10:08,840 --> 00:10:13,200
Speaker 5: You're listening to John Cobelt on demand from KFI AM

195
00:10:13,200 --> 00:10:13,720
Speaker 5: six forty.

196
00:10:15,160 --> 00:10:16,760
Speaker 1: But I don't think I told you that the Moist

197
00:10:16,800 --> 00:10:19,720
Speaker 1: Line is running for the last time this year. On

198
00:10:19,800 --> 00:10:22,800
Speaker 1: Friday eight seven seven, Moist eighty six eight seven seven

199
00:10:22,840 --> 00:10:26,319
Speaker 1: Moist eighty six and if you can't spell on the phone,

200
00:10:26,400 --> 00:10:29,560
Speaker 1: it's eight seven seven sixty six four seven eight eight six.

201
00:10:29,960 --> 00:10:33,679
Speaker 1: Talkback feature on the iHeartRadio app works as well, and

202
00:10:33,760 --> 00:10:36,160
Speaker 1: we'll run two rounds of the moist line coming up

203
00:10:36,200 --> 00:10:40,960
Speaker 1: on on Friday. Don't forget the Christmas music for that's.

204
00:10:41,360 --> 00:10:43,720
Speaker 1: Oh and we also have to get the Tony Vallar

205
00:10:43,840 --> 00:10:48,400
Speaker 1: Christmas Carol. All right, that's an annual tradition. And just

206
00:10:48,440 --> 00:10:52,120
Speaker 1: in general, if you play any Christmas music, limit it

207
00:10:52,160 --> 00:10:56,280
Speaker 1: to Dean Martin, Frank Sinatra, Perry Como, that sort of thing.

208
00:10:56,400 --> 00:10:58,040
Speaker 1: I was saving that for Friday. Let me tell you

209
00:10:58,040 --> 00:10:59,720
Speaker 1: what I don't want to hear, Like, I'll walk out

210
00:10:59,760 --> 00:11:01,679
Speaker 1: and come back for a month. I don't want to

211
00:11:01,679 --> 00:11:05,000
Speaker 1: hear Mariah Carrey, fine by me. Mariah Carey makes my

212
00:11:05,080 --> 00:11:08,640
Speaker 1: ears bleed. There was one day, I don't know, we

213
00:11:08,640 --> 00:11:11,080
Speaker 1: were out and every restaurant or shopping mall we were

214
00:11:11,080 --> 00:11:12,760
Speaker 1: going to, or every time we turn on the radio,

215
00:11:13,080 --> 00:11:14,359
Speaker 1: it's her screeching.

216
00:11:14,840 --> 00:11:17,520
Speaker 2: It's like cats in a blender. I cannot take.

217
00:11:17,400 --> 00:11:18,800
Speaker 3: That shot in a blender.

218
00:11:19,280 --> 00:11:20,640
Speaker 2: Throw some cats in a blender.

219
00:11:20,679 --> 00:11:27,040
Speaker 3: Aren't you being a little harsh? No, I mean she's

220
00:11:27,080 --> 00:11:29,120
Speaker 3: not my favorite, but I wouldn't say cats.

221
00:11:29,760 --> 00:11:33,320
Speaker 1: Whatever frequency she's on, my system can't handle.

222
00:11:33,080 --> 00:11:35,800
Speaker 3: It because you're jealous, because you can't reach those high notes.

223
00:11:36,640 --> 00:11:39,880
Speaker 2: Because I'm jealous. Yes, I'd like to see him try

224
00:11:39,920 --> 00:11:40,320
Speaker 2: to reach those.

225
00:11:40,920 --> 00:11:43,360
Speaker 1: No, no, there's no singing coming out of me ever

226
00:11:43,400 --> 00:11:44,280
Speaker 1: for the rest of my life.

227
00:11:44,320 --> 00:11:45,640
Speaker 2: No, no singing.

228
00:11:46,120 --> 00:11:46,240
Speaker 4: Uh.

229
00:11:46,480 --> 00:11:49,679
Speaker 1: In any event, we got we got, We got the

230
00:11:49,960 --> 00:11:55,000
Speaker 1: moistline coming up on Friday twice. Now onto the celebration today,

231
00:11:55,080 --> 00:11:56,000
Speaker 1: and it's gonna be all day.

232
00:11:56,000 --> 00:11:58,719
Speaker 2: We're every hour, we're gonna have something to commemorate. Uh.

233
00:11:59,400 --> 00:12:04,120
Speaker 1: Prop Dirty it actually becomes law today. In fact, we

234
00:12:04,280 --> 00:12:07,360
Speaker 1: just had Todd Spitzer on who's the DA in Orange

235
00:12:07,400 --> 00:12:09,840
Speaker 1: County as you know, and he announced the first Prop

236
00:12:09,880 --> 00:12:13,280
Speaker 1: thirty six case as has been filed from the City

237
00:12:13,280 --> 00:12:15,160
Speaker 1: of Fullerton. It has to be reviewed to see that

238
00:12:15,200 --> 00:12:18,200
Speaker 1: it meets the proper criteria. But we're talking about a

239
00:12:18,200 --> 00:12:23,040
Speaker 1: guy who's a repeat to drug offender and didn't stop

240
00:12:23,120 --> 00:12:27,040
Speaker 1: taking drugs and he's still causing trouble. So now he's

241
00:12:27,080 --> 00:12:28,520
Speaker 1: going to get a choice. He's going to go to

242
00:12:28,559 --> 00:12:31,199
Speaker 1: a rehab program, and he must take that rehild program

243
00:12:31,200 --> 00:12:35,000
Speaker 1: where he goes to jail it's simple, and this is

244
00:12:35,080 --> 00:12:39,400
Speaker 1: what we used to do pre George Gasconon, pre Kamala Harris.

245
00:12:39,600 --> 00:12:41,840
Speaker 1: When you go back to twenty fourteen, and I know

246
00:12:42,000 --> 00:12:44,680
Speaker 1: many of you must have voted for Prop. Forty seven

247
00:12:44,720 --> 00:12:48,200
Speaker 1: at the time because they lied to you. And Kamala

248
00:12:48,200 --> 00:12:50,480
Speaker 1: Harris was the biggest liar of all when she wrote

249
00:12:50,760 --> 00:12:53,880
Speaker 1: the title in summary that called it the Safe Neighborhood

250
00:12:53,880 --> 00:12:57,080
Speaker 1: in Schools Act. And she still has yet to have

251
00:12:57,120 --> 00:13:01,400
Speaker 1: a single reporter question her about that atrocity, still waiting

252
00:13:01,400 --> 00:13:04,600
Speaker 1: for the first one who is in so woke that

253
00:13:04,640 --> 00:13:05,720
Speaker 1: he's too embarrassed.

254
00:13:06,040 --> 00:13:06,360
Speaker 2: I don't know.

255
00:13:06,400 --> 00:13:08,960
Speaker 1: They don't want to get the other media members, their friends,

256
00:13:09,040 --> 00:13:13,240
Speaker 1: mad I really don't understand that, you know. And they're

257
00:13:13,280 --> 00:13:18,600
Speaker 1: all whining now about how these journalism outfits are falling apart.

258
00:13:19,320 --> 00:13:21,720
Speaker 1: If just look in the news, you know, the CNN

259
00:13:21,880 --> 00:13:26,000
Speaker 1: is at record low ratings, at MSNBC's at record low ratings,

260
00:13:26,280 --> 00:13:30,959
Speaker 1: and the Los Angeles Times the owner is in a panic.

261
00:13:31,880 --> 00:13:36,360
Speaker 1: Washington Post is in a panic because circulation has gone

262
00:13:36,600 --> 00:13:38,360
Speaker 1: way down, readership has gone way down.

263
00:13:38,720 --> 00:13:41,000
Speaker 2: And why because they're dishonest.

264
00:13:41,360 --> 00:13:44,040
Speaker 1: They're dishonest in what they print, They're dishonest in what

265
00:13:44,080 --> 00:13:47,439
Speaker 1: they omit from printing. And one thing that was omitted

266
00:13:47,480 --> 00:13:52,840
Speaker 1: this year during the campaign was why did people vote

267
00:13:52,880 --> 00:13:56,360
Speaker 1: on Prop forty seven ten years ago? And the title

268
00:13:56,400 --> 00:13:59,360
Speaker 1: of it was the Safe Neighborhood in Schools Act? Where

269
00:13:59,440 --> 00:14:02,360
Speaker 1: was the news story on how that even came to be? Like,

270
00:14:02,400 --> 00:14:03,440
Speaker 1: whose idea was that?

271
00:14:03,480 --> 00:14:03,760
Speaker 2: I diet?

272
00:14:03,800 --> 00:14:06,680
Speaker 1: It's hers? Because she can't put six words together. So

273
00:14:06,960 --> 00:14:10,800
Speaker 1: some woke staff member And did she not read it?

274
00:14:11,400 --> 00:14:14,120
Speaker 1: Did she just sign the order to make that the

275
00:14:14,160 --> 00:14:16,800
Speaker 1: official title of the ballot measure? I don't know, but

276
00:14:17,000 --> 00:14:21,200
Speaker 1: nobody ever explains anything. But now it's gone, all right.

277
00:14:21,320 --> 00:14:24,360
Speaker 1: Not only was Prop forty seven repealed with Prop thirty six,

278
00:14:24,840 --> 00:14:28,640
Speaker 1: George Gascon himself got repealed and Nathan Hockman is taking over.

279
00:14:30,040 --> 00:14:32,800
Speaker 2: And so it's gonna work little by little, all right.

280
00:14:32,840 --> 00:14:35,200
Speaker 1: You're not gonna see something dramatic happen in a day

281
00:14:35,280 --> 00:14:37,560
Speaker 1: or a week or a month, but over the course

282
00:14:37,640 --> 00:14:41,880
Speaker 1: of time, every day you'll have more and more thieves

283
00:14:42,240 --> 00:14:46,600
Speaker 1: and drug addicts and sentinel dealers get charged. Eventually they'll

284
00:14:46,760 --> 00:14:52,120
Speaker 1: either plead, they'll get sentenced, they'll take rehab and they'll

285
00:14:52,160 --> 00:14:54,880
Speaker 1: be off the streets, or they'll learn the lesson and

286
00:14:54,920 --> 00:14:57,560
Speaker 1: stop committing crimes. Or maybe they'll move out of town

287
00:14:58,640 --> 00:15:01,840
Speaker 1: and go steal somewhere else and be passed out in

288
00:15:01,880 --> 00:15:06,040
Speaker 1: somebody else's city, and it'll be a gradual climb out.

289
00:15:06,080 --> 00:15:09,360
Speaker 1: I'm telling you, I didn't even realize what an effect

290
00:15:09,360 --> 00:15:12,960
Speaker 1: Prop forty seven would had. On paper looked terrible, but

291
00:15:13,680 --> 00:15:16,040
Speaker 1: I because we cover this stuff every day, I started

292
00:15:16,080 --> 00:15:20,640
Speaker 1: noticing story after story, and it's things I'd never seen

293
00:15:20,800 --> 00:15:25,480
Speaker 1: or heard of before, starting with the massive homelessness and

294
00:15:25,560 --> 00:15:29,160
Speaker 1: all the drug addict behavior in the streets, and then

295
00:15:29,200 --> 00:15:32,800
Speaker 1: the thefts, and you know, my CBS has got everything

296
00:15:32,840 --> 00:15:34,360
Speaker 1: under lock and key. You can't buy it too it

297
00:15:34,360 --> 00:15:38,240
Speaker 1: but tooth based, you know. And it happened very gradually, little

298
00:15:38,280 --> 00:15:44,000
Speaker 1: by little, pandemic accelerated it because bad behavior was allowed

299
00:15:44,000 --> 00:15:48,040
Speaker 1: to run them up. Remember they stopped, they stopped bothering

300
00:15:48,040 --> 00:15:52,600
Speaker 1: people in the homeless encampments, they stopped enforcing the law

301
00:15:52,800 --> 00:15:55,800
Speaker 1: in so many places, and suddenly, you know, by twenty

302
00:15:55,840 --> 00:15:59,960
Speaker 1: twenty three, this place was a zoo, an outdoor mental institution,

303
00:16:00,640 --> 00:16:03,320
Speaker 1: and it all came from George Gascon and Kamala Harris.

304
00:16:03,360 --> 00:16:06,920
Speaker 1: In twenty fourteen, it was drip Drip, Drip day after

305
00:16:07,040 --> 00:16:09,680
Speaker 1: day after day, and you suddenly saw things that you

306
00:16:09,800 --> 00:16:13,840
Speaker 1: never saw before. And then you had politicians the liars

307
00:16:13,840 --> 00:16:17,200
Speaker 1: in the media constantly tell you that what you're seeing

308
00:16:17,320 --> 00:16:19,320
Speaker 1: is not real. All right, you know, we have some

309
00:16:19,400 --> 00:16:23,280
Speaker 1: statistics here in that show that crimes actually dap. They

310
00:16:23,400 --> 00:16:25,640
Speaker 1: just lied, They just make stuff up. It's like this

311
00:16:25,720 --> 00:16:31,280
Speaker 1: drone situation. No, those aren't really drones. Okay. Now, Joe

312
00:16:31,320 --> 00:16:34,240
Speaker 1: Biden really is not senile. And the guy had to

313
00:16:34,280 --> 00:16:37,400
Speaker 1: fall practically faced down on the stage before everybody had

314
00:16:37,400 --> 00:16:39,160
Speaker 1: been It's like, wow, you know, he's running in bad shape,

315
00:16:39,200 --> 00:16:39,480
Speaker 1: isn't he.

316
00:16:41,560 --> 00:16:41,760
Speaker 2: You know.

317
00:16:42,080 --> 00:16:44,760
Speaker 1: Kamala Harris everybody thought was an idiot until she ran

318
00:16:45,040 --> 00:16:47,240
Speaker 1: from president this year, and she was like the.

319
00:16:48,920 --> 00:16:50,480
Speaker 2: Part of the great Awokening.

320
00:16:51,880 --> 00:16:55,520
Speaker 1: I mean, I've never in my life lists such nonsense,

321
00:16:55,680 --> 00:16:59,560
Speaker 1: just such bullcraft, day after day after day being shoveled

322
00:16:59,600 --> 00:16:59,920
Speaker 1: on us.

323
00:17:01,000 --> 00:17:01,720
Speaker 2: So stay awake.

324
00:17:02,840 --> 00:17:05,639
Speaker 1: We've got to track this stuff now because I'm telling

325
00:17:05,640 --> 00:17:10,280
Speaker 1: you all the legislature, legislators, the governors, the idiot supervisors

326
00:17:10,280 --> 00:17:12,840
Speaker 1: in La County and in other counties, they're going to

327
00:17:12,880 --> 00:17:13,720
Speaker 1: try to undermine this.

328
00:17:14,359 --> 00:17:15,600
Speaker 2: So we have to.

329
00:17:16,119 --> 00:17:19,720
Speaker 1: We will bring you every single story every time somebody

330
00:17:19,760 --> 00:17:23,400
Speaker 1: tries to undermine Prop thirty six if we can find

331
00:17:23,440 --> 00:17:28,880
Speaker 1: any media that reports this stuff. All right, I'm gonna

332
00:17:28,880 --> 00:17:32,480
Speaker 1: take arrest now. A deep breaths, yes, all.

333
00:17:32,480 --> 00:17:36,320
Speaker 2: Right, Debor Mark Day continues live in KFI Day. Thank

334
00:17:36,359 --> 00:17:36,760
Speaker 2: go ahead.

335
00:17:38,359 --> 00:17:43,040
Speaker 5: You're listening to John Cobels on demand from KFI Am six.

336
00:17:43,000 --> 00:17:47,160
Speaker 1: Forty celebrating today's the first day. Prop thirty six is law,

337
00:17:47,280 --> 00:17:51,080
Speaker 1: first day after being passed seventy to thirty in the

338
00:17:51,080 --> 00:17:56,560
Speaker 1: state of California. People fed up with woke politics, woke crime,

339
00:17:56,920 --> 00:18:00,760
Speaker 1: progressive a holes that ruined our life for the last

340
00:18:00,760 --> 00:18:02,119
Speaker 1: ten years.

341
00:18:02,600 --> 00:18:04,600
Speaker 2: And one thing that.

342
00:18:04,600 --> 00:18:10,160
Speaker 1: Of course is never reported on, never discussed publicly, the homelessness,

343
00:18:10,680 --> 00:18:12,639
Speaker 1: came out of Prop forty seven.

344
00:18:12,680 --> 00:18:13,480
Speaker 2: And I'll explain.

345
00:18:15,080 --> 00:18:20,879
Speaker 1: Because drug addicts were allowed to be drug addicts and

346
00:18:20,920 --> 00:18:25,280
Speaker 1: were not forced into treatment or forced into jail, they

347
00:18:25,600 --> 00:18:29,959
Speaker 1: started living on the streets. There was nothing to disrupt

348
00:18:30,000 --> 00:18:34,399
Speaker 1: their behavior, and obviously every day they needed more money

349
00:18:34,440 --> 00:18:38,760
Speaker 1: to buy more drugs. There was nothing to interrupt the cycle.

350
00:18:40,440 --> 00:18:42,560
Speaker 1: So to get more money they had to steal.

351
00:18:43,960 --> 00:18:44,160
Speaker 2: Well.

352
00:18:44,200 --> 00:18:49,760
Speaker 1: Prop forty seven legalized stealing, so they could steal, buy

353
00:18:49,760 --> 00:18:54,440
Speaker 1: the drugs, use the drugs. Obviously they're not going to work. Obviously,

354
00:18:54,480 --> 00:18:57,400
Speaker 1: they can't afford to live in a traditional home or apartment,

355
00:18:58,760 --> 00:19:01,879
Speaker 1: so what happened? They're living in the sidewalks, in the

356
00:19:01,920 --> 00:19:05,800
Speaker 1: parks in front of your kids' school. That's all Prop

357
00:19:05,880 --> 00:19:10,760
Speaker 1: forty seven. We didn't have these issues in La to

358
00:19:10,800 --> 00:19:14,200
Speaker 1: this extent. There was skid row that was about it,

359
00:19:15,840 --> 00:19:17,960
Speaker 1: and suddenly he was showing up in places nobody had

360
00:19:18,000 --> 00:19:21,560
Speaker 1: seen it before. I remember when we went to the

361
00:19:21,600 --> 00:19:24,960
Speaker 1: Santa Ana riverbed and I think this was twenty seventeen,

362
00:19:25,440 --> 00:19:29,200
Speaker 1: massive homeless encampment. I'd never seen anything like it, all

363
00:19:29,280 --> 00:19:33,240
Speaker 1: the people strung out on drugs. I remember one young

364
00:19:33,240 --> 00:19:38,560
Speaker 1: woman was actually strikingly pretty, living in a tent, completely

365
00:19:38,560 --> 00:19:41,240
Speaker 1: glazed over. Tried to interview her, she was incoherent.

366
00:19:42,080 --> 00:19:44,399
Speaker 2: I was like, what happened with her? What happened with

367
00:19:44,440 --> 00:19:45,159
Speaker 2: all these people?

368
00:19:45,880 --> 00:19:49,119
Speaker 1: Some of them didn't look like your traditional Yeah, we

369
00:19:49,200 --> 00:19:51,320
Speaker 1: know what street people look like, the drug addicts and

370
00:19:51,359 --> 00:19:53,960
Speaker 1: the alcoholics and all that, but these were like normal

371
00:19:54,040 --> 00:19:58,560
Speaker 1: looking people. Well, Fentonel had come to town because of

372
00:19:58,600 --> 00:20:04,600
Speaker 1: the complete border failure, and that really accelerated during the pandemic.

373
00:20:06,760 --> 00:20:09,760
Speaker 1: But it was all Prop forty seven. This wasn't happening

374
00:20:09,880 --> 00:20:13,600
Speaker 1: in other cities, it was happening here. We had the

375
00:20:13,640 --> 00:20:17,040
Speaker 1: crazy thing. I traveled a lot this year, and my

376
00:20:17,160 --> 00:20:20,680
Speaker 1: kids travel and live in other states. First thing they

377
00:20:20,800 --> 00:20:24,200
Speaker 1: notice is, Wow, nothing's locked up at the drug store.

378
00:20:24,320 --> 00:20:26,360
Speaker 2: It's sport of God. My son called me after he'd

379
00:20:26,640 --> 00:20:27,920
Speaker 2: moved to North Carolina.

380
00:20:28,320 --> 00:20:32,880
Speaker 1: He called back and said, they don't lock up the toothpaste. Yes,

381
00:20:33,040 --> 00:20:36,240
Speaker 1: they don't lock up the toothpaste. Oh, and they hand

382
00:20:36,240 --> 00:20:41,840
Speaker 1: out plastic bags without asking you. But that's another story.

383
00:20:41,960 --> 00:20:47,800
Speaker 1: It was all Prop forty seven and Gavin Newsom by

384
00:20:47,840 --> 00:20:50,919
Speaker 1: twenty eighteen. It was such a problem that when and

385
00:20:51,000 --> 00:20:54,240
Speaker 1: this is a story from cal Matters, and I kind

386
00:20:54,240 --> 00:20:56,320
Speaker 1: of like these year end stories that some of the

387
00:20:56,359 --> 00:21:00,760
Speaker 1: publications are bothering. It's not only a year story, it's

388
00:21:00,840 --> 00:21:03,879
Speaker 1: like a look back on six years of Gavin Newsom.

389
00:21:04,240 --> 00:21:07,440
Speaker 1: And you need this stuff because we all forget think

390
00:21:07,480 --> 00:21:09,639
Speaker 1: of all the crazy things that have happened in the

391
00:21:09,680 --> 00:21:13,240
Speaker 1: last six years. It's hard to remember a day when

392
00:21:13,240 --> 00:21:17,560
Speaker 1: Gavin Newsom wasn't the governor. But he started six years

393
00:21:17,600 --> 00:21:21,760
Speaker 1: ago and as cal Matter says, many promises of decisive

394
00:21:21,800 --> 00:21:26,919
Speaker 1: action on major issues, among them housing in homelessness. He

395
00:21:27,520 --> 00:21:31,399
Speaker 1: pledged to appoint a homelessness czar to attack the crisis.

396
00:21:31,600 --> 00:21:41,359
Speaker 1: Twenty eighteen, he and the legislature allocated billions of dollars. Now,

397
00:21:41,800 --> 00:21:47,520
Speaker 1: the auditor for California this year says that Newsom has

398
00:21:47,560 --> 00:21:54,320
Speaker 1: spent twenty four billion dollars nine different agencies. Newsom had

399
00:21:54,320 --> 00:21:58,159
Speaker 1: created some kind of monster called the Interagency Council on

400
00:21:58,240 --> 00:22:07,119
Speaker 1: Homelessness whoo, and they blew the twenty four billion. The

401
00:22:07,240 --> 00:22:10,160
Speaker 1: state's auditor is a man named Grant Parks, and Parks

402
00:22:10,680 --> 00:22:14,280
Speaker 1: said that they failed to track how the billions of

403
00:22:14,320 --> 00:22:18,840
Speaker 1: dollars were being spent. Not only that, they never determined

404
00:22:18,880 --> 00:22:23,760
Speaker 1: which programs were effective. So they Gavin Newsom blew twenty

405
00:22:23,800 --> 00:22:27,840
Speaker 1: four billion dollars in homelessness and never tracked where the

406
00:22:27,920 --> 00:22:31,960
Speaker 1: money went, and never tracked whether any of the programs

407
00:22:32,000 --> 00:22:41,800
Speaker 1: actually did any good. Cow matters continues. As the crisis continued,

408
00:22:41,880 --> 00:22:45,600
Speaker 1: reporters questioned Newsome about having a czar who could cut

409
00:22:45,640 --> 00:22:49,120
Speaker 1: through the red tape and attack homelessness effectively, and Newsom

410
00:22:49,200 --> 00:22:54,080
Speaker 1: snapped back, I never heard this quote. You want to

411
00:22:54,080 --> 00:22:56,520
Speaker 1: know who the homeless are is, I'm the homeless are

412
00:22:56,600 --> 00:23:01,480
Speaker 1: in the state of California. Okay, he's the homeless talk.

413
00:23:01,600 --> 00:23:04,080
Speaker 1: Now he's one hundred percent responsible, which means he's one

414
00:23:04,119 --> 00:23:06,560
Speaker 1: hundred percent responsible for blowing the twenty four billion dollars

415
00:23:06,600 --> 00:23:13,679
Speaker 1: in getting nothing for it. Then Newsom started blaming local

416
00:23:13,720 --> 00:23:20,040
Speaker 1: governments for not spending the state homeless grants effectively. Well,

417
00:23:20,160 --> 00:23:22,720
Speaker 1: if you tracked it, you would have known that right away.

418
00:23:25,520 --> 00:23:27,800
Speaker 1: But the locals know that you're not tracking it. So

419
00:23:27,880 --> 00:23:29,800
Speaker 1: what do they do. They give it to all those

420
00:23:29,880 --> 00:23:33,600
Speaker 1: fake criminal nonprofits that their friends and relatives have set

421
00:23:33,680 --> 00:23:38,960
Speaker 1: up to siphon off billions out of the system. For example,

422
00:23:39,000 --> 00:23:44,520
Speaker 1: Los Angeles, the Los Angeles Homeless Services Authority LASA, you've

423
00:23:44,560 --> 00:23:49,560
Speaker 1: heard of it. LA City, LA County joined to create LASA.

424
00:23:50,119 --> 00:23:52,800
Speaker 1: They have a budget of eight hundred and seventy five

425
00:23:52,960 --> 00:23:57,480
Speaker 1: million dollars a year. It's almost a billion dollars. Here's

426
00:23:57,560 --> 00:24:02,800
Speaker 1: audit number two. The counties are auditor said that the

427
00:24:02,840 --> 00:24:07,919
Speaker 1: agency is constantly like making payments, does not track how

428
00:24:07,960 --> 00:24:10,840
Speaker 1: the money is spent, and shifts the money from one

429
00:24:10,880 --> 00:24:15,800
Speaker 1: program to another, even though these programs have different purposes.

430
00:24:16,080 --> 00:24:18,199
Speaker 1: In other words, it's a mix. It's a disaster. It's

431
00:24:18,200 --> 00:24:20,800
Speaker 1: a disaster on the state level, it's a disaster on

432
00:24:20,840 --> 00:24:23,880
Speaker 1: the county and city level, and twenty four billion dollars

433
00:24:24,600 --> 00:24:28,359
Speaker 1: went bye bye, not to mention the billions that we

434
00:24:28,400 --> 00:24:35,199
Speaker 1: spend locally here with their stupid sales taxes. So the

435
00:24:35,240 --> 00:24:39,280
Speaker 1: local governments are angry with Newsom for blaming them, but

436
00:24:39,320 --> 00:24:44,320
Speaker 1: they should be blamed. Newsom is angry because everyone else

437
00:24:44,400 --> 00:24:46,320
Speaker 1: is blaming him, and he should be blamed. You know

438
00:24:46,359 --> 00:24:48,199
Speaker 1: what comes down to, and I'm kind of tired of this.

439
00:24:48,240 --> 00:24:51,880
Speaker 1: I'm kind of tired of like debating the best programs

440
00:24:52,160 --> 00:24:55,560
Speaker 1: and trying to understand how to maintain a proper stream

441
00:24:55,560 --> 00:25:00,000
Speaker 1: of funding. It's the people running these programs. They're either stupid,

442
00:25:00,080 --> 00:25:04,840
Speaker 1: bid like newsom is, are corrupt like most of the

443
00:25:04,880 --> 00:25:08,000
Speaker 1: bureaucrats that hand out money to the nonprofits. Tell me,

444
00:25:08,480 --> 00:25:10,680
Speaker 1: tell me the bureaucrats handing out the money are not

445
00:25:10,720 --> 00:25:14,639
Speaker 1: getting kickbacks. Tell me that they're not getting bribes to

446
00:25:14,720 --> 00:25:17,640
Speaker 1: direct the money. None of it's going to help the homeless.

447
00:25:17,840 --> 00:25:24,439
Speaker 1: You can see that with your own eyes. Making this

448
00:25:24,520 --> 00:25:29,960
Speaker 1: a full circle. This is why passing Prop forty seven

449
00:25:30,440 --> 00:25:38,040
Speaker 1: was such a disaster, because it made public drug addiction possible,

450
00:25:39,040 --> 00:25:44,320
Speaker 1: which meant they had to steal. Stealing was now basically legal.

451
00:25:45,560 --> 00:25:50,760
Speaker 1: And if they're stealing, making money, spending the money on drugs,

452
00:25:51,320 --> 00:25:54,480
Speaker 1: they've got to live in the streets. And the cities

453
00:25:55,080 --> 00:25:59,280
Speaker 1: decided not to enforce street living either. Suddenly all the

454
00:25:59,359 --> 00:26:05,040
Speaker 1: laws against living in a tent on a sidewalk, we're ignored. Well,

455
00:26:05,080 --> 00:26:08,120
Speaker 1: if you don't enforce laws on drug addiction, you don't

456
00:26:08,200 --> 00:26:11,359
Speaker 1: enforce laws on stealing, you don't enforce laws on living

457
00:26:11,400 --> 00:26:12,800
Speaker 1: in public places.

458
00:26:12,560 --> 00:26:13,520
Speaker 2: What are you gonna get.

459
00:26:15,080 --> 00:26:19,000
Speaker 1: You're gonna get California La of the last ten years.

460
00:26:21,000 --> 00:26:23,520
Speaker 1: And that's why nothing And we said this, we said

461
00:26:23,560 --> 00:26:28,480
Speaker 1: this all year. Nothing gets better, Nothing gets better without

462
00:26:28,800 --> 00:26:31,200
Speaker 1: Prop thirty six, without repealing Prop forty seven.

463
00:26:31,440 --> 00:26:31,760
Speaker 2: Nothing.

464
00:26:32,160 --> 00:26:34,560
Speaker 1: You've got to put thieves in jail. You got to

465
00:26:34,600 --> 00:26:37,760
Speaker 1: put drug addicts either in rehab or in jail. You

466
00:26:37,840 --> 00:26:40,360
Speaker 1: got to go after fento miel dealers, because that's why

467
00:26:40,400 --> 00:26:44,639
Speaker 1: we have so many bent over zombies in the city

468
00:26:44,680 --> 00:26:47,480
Speaker 1: and in the state. You have to do that. It's

469
00:26:47,560 --> 00:26:52,200
Speaker 1: absolutely mandatory. And you have to stop electing the stupid.

470
00:26:54,000 --> 00:26:58,639
Speaker 1: Let Gavin Newsom run for president. Let him embarrass himself. Actually,

471
00:26:58,680 --> 00:27:01,240
Speaker 1: he's gonna embarrass the whole state. People are going to

472
00:27:01,280 --> 00:27:03,840
Speaker 1: be looking and saying how did you people vote him

473
00:27:03,880 --> 00:27:08,640
Speaker 1: into office for eight years? And then I read four

474
00:27:08,760 --> 00:27:12,119
Speaker 1: articles in two days. But Kamala Harris is next in

475
00:27:12,160 --> 00:27:14,480
Speaker 1: line to be governor and she may be the only

476
00:27:14,600 --> 00:27:17,399
Speaker 1: politician who's dumber the gavenous.

477
00:27:19,240 --> 00:27:19,520
Speaker 4: Wow.

478
00:27:20,240 --> 00:27:24,760
Speaker 1: Oh I remember she made it the Safe Neighborhood Schools

479
00:27:24,800 --> 00:27:28,160
Speaker 1: Act Prop. Forty seven. That's what would be coming next?

480
00:27:28,200 --> 00:27:31,000
Speaker 1: What for the next four eight years? Really is that

481
00:27:31,119 --> 00:27:31,840
Speaker 1: really going to happen?

482
00:27:32,760 --> 00:27:33,040
Speaker 2: Allright?

483
00:27:33,080 --> 00:27:35,320
Speaker 1: We come uh, well, I mean after two o'clock, we're

484
00:27:35,359 --> 00:27:41,760
Speaker 1: going to talk to Matt Cappelado. Matt, his daughter Alexandra

485
00:27:42,240 --> 00:27:45,800
Speaker 1: died back in twenty nineteen, thought she was taking a percocet,

486
00:27:46,160 --> 00:27:50,760
Speaker 1: turned out to be poisoned with fentanyl, and Coppolato has

487
00:27:50,760 --> 00:27:56,640
Speaker 1: spent years trying to get legislation passed the corrupt legislature

488
00:27:56,720 --> 00:28:00,800
Speaker 1: and could it they wanted to protect protect fentanyl dealer. Well,

489
00:28:01,000 --> 00:28:05,240
Speaker 1: finally Prop thirty six is going to make the difference,

490
00:28:05,280 --> 00:28:08,320
Speaker 1: and we're going to talk to Matt Coppolatto. Coming up.

491
00:28:09,640 --> 00:28:14,520
Speaker 5: You're listening to John Cobels on demand from KFI AM sixty.

492
00:28:15,359 --> 00:28:20,200
Speaker 1: Coming up after two Mac Coppolaudo, his daughter Alexandra died

493
00:28:20,200 --> 00:28:22,919
Speaker 1: a few years ago from fentanyl poisoning. She thought she

494
00:28:23,040 --> 00:28:26,040
Speaker 1: was taking a percoset, and that led Matt on a

495
00:28:26,240 --> 00:28:30,080
Speaker 1: quite an odyssey for years trying to get legislation passed

496
00:28:30,119 --> 00:28:33,600
Speaker 1: in Sacramento to go after the fentinyl dealers. And they

497
00:28:33,600 --> 00:28:37,879
Speaker 1: wouldn't do it because California legislators, you know, one of

498
00:28:37,920 --> 00:28:39,720
Speaker 1: the groups they worship, what did I tell you it's

499
00:28:39,760 --> 00:28:44,240
Speaker 1: three groups, criminals and illegal immigrants and homeless people. Well,

500
00:28:45,200 --> 00:28:47,880
Speaker 1: they didn't want to make they didn't want to have

501
00:28:47,920 --> 00:28:50,920
Speaker 1: a set of fentinyl crimes on the books that would

502
00:28:50,960 --> 00:28:56,080
Speaker 1: send the dealers to prison. Yes, Coppolato finally got what

503
00:28:56,120 --> 00:28:58,720
Speaker 1: he wanted with Prop thirty six passing. We'll talk to

504
00:28:58,760 --> 00:29:01,680
Speaker 1: Matt coming up. Today is the day the Prop thirty

505
00:29:01,720 --> 00:29:05,800
Speaker 1: six goes into law. I just have a short time

506
00:29:05,800 --> 00:29:10,680
Speaker 1: here before Dever's News. Perfect place to do a Penis story.

507
00:29:11,200 --> 00:29:12,480
Speaker 3: We love Penis stories.

508
00:29:12,520 --> 00:29:19,160
Speaker 1: Well that's getting saved. Oh please don't, it's too late now.

509
00:29:20,000 --> 00:29:21,800
Speaker 1: He seemed to be a little too enthusiastic.

510
00:29:22,080 --> 00:29:24,480
Speaker 3: Well, you know, I mean the Dow takes a dive.

511
00:29:24,600 --> 00:29:26,120
Speaker 3: You know, we have the down story.

512
00:29:26,560 --> 00:29:28,000
Speaker 1: Well, I don't know if this is an up or

513
00:29:28,000 --> 00:29:31,280
Speaker 1: a down story. It depends on your point of view.

514
00:29:31,680 --> 00:29:34,360
Speaker 1: All right, So this guy goes to the doctor. I

515
00:29:34,360 --> 00:29:36,240
Speaker 1: know it sounds like a joke, but it's a true story.

516
00:29:36,240 --> 00:29:38,040
Speaker 1: In fact, I have an X ray here in front

517
00:29:38,080 --> 00:29:41,520
Speaker 1: of me. He's in his sixties, and he went to

518
00:29:41,560 --> 00:29:44,680
Speaker 1: the doctor because he had some kind of knee trauma.

519
00:29:44,720 --> 00:29:48,320
Speaker 1: All right, he had a knee injury. And while he's

520
00:29:48,360 --> 00:29:51,160
Speaker 1: talking to the doctor, he says, I also have a

521
00:29:51,160 --> 00:29:55,760
Speaker 1: pain in my penis. So the doctor didn't find any

522
00:29:55,800 --> 00:30:02,400
Speaker 1: prostrate swelling or any unusual discharge. Oh god, it's a

523
00:30:02,440 --> 00:30:06,680
Speaker 1: really awful phrase, an awful word, And there were no

524
00:30:06,760 --> 00:30:07,640
Speaker 1: usual markers.

525
00:30:07,880 --> 00:30:09,040
Speaker 2: So they took an X ray.

526
00:30:09,080 --> 00:30:11,760
Speaker 1: They thought maybe he had a fractured pelvis, and what

527
00:30:11,800 --> 00:30:15,560
Speaker 1: they found is that his penis was.

528
00:30:15,480 --> 00:30:18,920
Speaker 2: Turning to bone. Now I don't know if this is

529
00:30:18,960 --> 00:30:19,960
Speaker 2: a problem or not, but.

530
00:30:21,480 --> 00:30:27,320
Speaker 1: He had extensive plaque like calcification all along, all along

531
00:30:27,400 --> 00:30:31,760
Speaker 1: the length of his penis. Okay, it's called penile ossification.

532
00:30:32,000 --> 00:30:38,440
Speaker 1: Calcium salts collect in the penis tissues, forming an extra

533
00:30:38,680 --> 00:30:43,000
Speaker 1: skeletal structure very much like a bone. So you know bone,

534
00:30:43,160 --> 00:30:45,480
Speaker 1: there's a lot of calcium in bones. He had so

535
00:30:45,640 --> 00:30:48,880
Speaker 1: much excess calcium it was hardening the tissues in his

536
00:30:48,960 --> 00:30:53,280
Speaker 1: penis into bone. Oh god, His wife said, I don't

537
00:30:53,280 --> 00:31:01,560
Speaker 1: see a problem. Really, maybe that was a mistress. His

538
00:31:01,680 --> 00:31:05,920
Speaker 1: wife said, enough of you. He's one of just forty

539
00:31:05,960 --> 00:31:09,080
Speaker 1: patients to be diagnosed with the condition. You know how

540
00:31:09,080 --> 00:31:09,640
Speaker 1: they treat it.

541
00:31:11,760 --> 00:31:13,400
Speaker 3: You're the one with penis.

542
00:31:12,960 --> 00:31:18,480
Speaker 2: So well, you're making an assumption. Aren't you going to

543
00:31:18,560 --> 00:31:20,480
Speaker 2: say that you don't know how identify?

544
00:31:20,640 --> 00:31:21,040
Speaker 3: I don't.

545
00:31:22,200 --> 00:31:27,440
Speaker 1: The condition is treated with shockwave therapy, sonic pulses to

546
00:31:27,720 --> 00:31:34,880
Speaker 1: break the bone into little bits. Yes, they send these

547
00:31:34,920 --> 00:31:39,600
Speaker 1: shockwaves to the penis, hoping that this this new penile

548
00:31:39,720 --> 00:31:41,320
Speaker 1: bone starts to crumble.

549
00:31:41,560 --> 00:31:44,520
Speaker 2: No, thank you, ayah. I think I'd rather keep the.

550
00:31:45,200 --> 00:31:49,560
Speaker 1: Way it is. And they don't know actually what's caused this?

551
00:31:50,400 --> 00:31:53,000
Speaker 1: Uh that there's another thing to worry.

552
00:31:52,760 --> 00:31:54,680
Speaker 3: About, you know, Well, I don't have to worry about.

553
00:31:54,800 --> 00:32:00,280
Speaker 2: No, you don't. I have to worry. You have to worry.

554
00:32:00,920 --> 00:32:06,000
Speaker 1: The causes are metabolic disorders, could be kidney disease, repeated

555
00:32:06,040 --> 00:32:06,600
Speaker 1: trauma to.

556
00:32:06,560 --> 00:32:09,640
Speaker 2: The penis, repeated trauma, repeated trauma.

557
00:32:09,720 --> 00:32:11,840
Speaker 3: Well, what causes repeated trauma.

558
00:32:11,480 --> 00:32:15,720
Speaker 1: To repeated aggressive sex? That can happen every once in

559
00:32:15,760 --> 00:32:19,120
Speaker 1: a while. I don't want to get into details here.

560
00:32:18,960 --> 00:32:20,320
Speaker 3: But we don't want to hear them.

561
00:32:21,000 --> 00:32:24,080
Speaker 2: You can ask Nannis Rodman. Oh yeah, that's right. What

562
00:32:24,240 --> 00:32:24,480
Speaker 2: was that?

563
00:32:24,640 --> 00:32:31,560
Speaker 1: I remember he broke his penis? Yes, that can happen. Well,

564
00:32:31,720 --> 00:32:33,440
Speaker 1: sometimes I can't come.

565
00:32:34,080 --> 00:32:34,600
Speaker 3: I get it.

566
00:32:34,880 --> 00:32:35,520
Speaker 2: You need to go.

567
00:32:35,640 --> 00:32:38,640
Speaker 3: You don't need to explain. I understand what you said.

568
00:32:38,720 --> 00:32:40,480
Speaker 2: You know, if if one of the two partners is

569
00:32:40,480 --> 00:32:41,200
Speaker 2: getting a little.

570
00:32:41,000 --> 00:32:42,760
Speaker 3: Too aggressive, I get it already.

571
00:32:42,840 --> 00:32:44,360
Speaker 2: Okay, you're the one who says.

572
00:32:44,560 --> 00:32:45,760
Speaker 3: I love penis stories.

573
00:32:47,200 --> 00:32:48,360
Speaker 2: What you say? I didn't hear that.

574
00:32:48,400 --> 00:32:50,600
Speaker 3: What you say we love penis stories.

575
00:32:50,640 --> 00:32:56,560
Speaker 2: There we go. Oh you got one. Uh, all right,
