Speaker 3: more on this than the three o'clock hour. But our

18
00:00:47,920 --> 00:00:51,479
Speaker 3: big story from yesterday, the Public Safety Committee in the

19
00:00:51,520 --> 00:00:55,400
Speaker 3: State Assembly killed a bill which would make the sex

20
00:00:55,480 --> 00:00:59,920
Speaker 3: trafficking of miners a strike. That's important because it adds

21
00:01:00,080 --> 00:01:04,360
Speaker 3: significant prison time. Right now, they can get out because

22
00:01:04,360 --> 00:01:06,399
Speaker 3: of good time served and all that crap, and just

23
00:01:06,480 --> 00:01:10,320
Speaker 3: a few years for trafficking people and ugly sexual encounters

24
00:01:10,360 --> 00:01:13,959
Speaker 3: young children. Anyway, the Public Safety Committee killed it, but

25
00:01:14,200 --> 00:01:17,679
Speaker 3: the update is and bill's main sponsor is State Senator

26
00:01:17,720 --> 00:01:21,440
Speaker 3: Shennon Grove from Bakersfield. It may have new life and

27
00:01:21,560 --> 00:01:24,240
Speaker 3: Newsome got involved and they may go to a work

28
00:01:24,240 --> 00:01:26,920
Speaker 3: around the Assembly of Public Safety Committee get it voted

29
00:01:26,920 --> 00:01:30,360
Speaker 3: on the full Assembly floor. It already passed the State Senate.

30
00:01:30,800 --> 00:01:33,559
Speaker 3: Be talking to Assembly Member Tom Lackey in one hour.

31
00:01:34,080 --> 00:01:36,400
Speaker 3: He is a yes vote on the Public Safety Committee.

32
00:01:36,440 --> 00:01:38,880
Speaker 3: But he can tell us exactly all it went down

33
00:01:38,959 --> 00:01:40,920
Speaker 3: yesterday in Sacramento.

34
00:01:41,640 --> 00:01:43,120
Speaker 1: We now turned back to the border.

35
00:01:44,400 --> 00:01:47,240
Speaker 3: The Biden administration has been trying all sorts of ideas

36
00:01:47,280 --> 00:01:50,480
Speaker 3: to get people into the country without them necessarily piling

37
00:01:50,560 --> 00:01:54,919
Speaker 3: up at the border, because that's bad optics, that doesn't

38
00:01:54,960 --> 00:01:57,240
Speaker 3: look good on TV, right right, And you know he's

39
00:01:57,280 --> 00:01:58,360
Speaker 3: running for president too.

40
00:01:59,120 --> 00:02:02,120
Speaker 2: You watch these caps characters when they're in a high

41
00:02:02,120 --> 00:02:06,200
Speaker 2: stake selection, watch their behavior, watch how devious it can be.

42
00:02:06,760 --> 00:02:09,760
Speaker 2: And with Biden, it's having the bureaucrats come up with

43
00:02:10,720 --> 00:02:14,440
Speaker 2: new laws behind the scenes or new rules to let

44
00:02:14,480 --> 00:02:17,160
Speaker 2: more legal aliens in in a less obvious manner.

45
00:02:17,480 --> 00:02:20,359
Speaker 3: And one word they use. One program is called parole.

46
00:02:20,560 --> 00:02:24,400
Speaker 3: It sounds nice too, doesn't a parole program? So the

47
00:02:24,480 --> 00:02:26,400
Speaker 3: other idea is, well, if you get them into the

48
00:02:26,440 --> 00:02:29,239
Speaker 3: country under something called parole, they don't count as I

49
00:02:29,320 --> 00:02:32,040
Speaker 3: legal immigrants. Right, they've now entered the country legally and

50
00:02:32,080 --> 00:02:35,799
Speaker 3: they'll go through the process. It's all backdoor stuff. We're

51
00:02:35,840 --> 00:02:40,000
Speaker 3: going to talk about the latest maneuver concerning people from

52
00:02:40,040 --> 00:02:43,639
Speaker 3: certain countries of El Salvador, Columbia, Guatemala.

53
00:02:44,000 --> 00:02:45,160
Speaker 1: Oh, John, Honduras.

54
00:02:45,160 --> 00:02:47,000
Speaker 3: Did you find out yesterday a lot of Hondurans go

55
00:02:47,040 --> 00:02:49,120
Speaker 3: to San Francisco and drugs.

56
00:02:49,200 --> 00:02:52,120
Speaker 2: Right, they're selling the FENTONYL It's killing people in the

57
00:02:52,120 --> 00:02:52,760
Speaker 2: streets there.

58
00:02:53,280 --> 00:02:59,000
Speaker 1: Good. Good, we'll get another shipment in. Chris Shomolensky. Okay, Chris,

59
00:02:59,000 --> 00:02:59,440
Speaker 1: how are.

60
00:02:59,360 --> 00:03:02,720
Speaker 4: You doing well? Thanks for having me on.

61
00:03:02,840 --> 00:03:05,480
Speaker 2: All right, and numbers USA has been around for a

62
00:03:05,520 --> 00:03:08,720
Speaker 2: lot of years trying to shine light on the illegal

63
00:03:08,760 --> 00:03:13,520
Speaker 2: immigration issue. Uh, Chris, what is this new scheme that

64
00:03:13,560 --> 00:03:15,640
Speaker 2: the Biden administration has invented?

65
00:03:16,760 --> 00:03:19,120
Speaker 4: Well, I am so glad you called it a scheme

66
00:03:19,840 --> 00:03:23,840
Speaker 4: and that you and that you you use the term parole,

67
00:03:24,000 --> 00:03:27,440
Speaker 4: so you know, first for starters, parole is something that

68
00:03:27,440 --> 00:03:30,880
Speaker 4: that Congress has authorized the Executive Branch to use when

69
00:03:30,919 --> 00:03:36,360
Speaker 4: it comes to dealing with people who are otherwise unauthorized

70
00:03:36,360 --> 00:03:39,240
Speaker 4: to either enter the United States or are living here illegally.

71
00:03:39,680 --> 00:03:42,160
Speaker 4: But it's supposed to be used on a case by

72
00:03:42,240 --> 00:03:47,520
Speaker 4: case basis, for for like extreme humanitarian needs or hardships.

73
00:03:47,880 --> 00:03:49,760
Speaker 4: You know, there's got to be a you know, this

74
00:03:49,920 --> 00:03:52,800
Speaker 4: is somebody who over state a visa and their appendix. First,

75
00:03:52,920 --> 00:03:54,320
Speaker 4: we're not going to kick them out of the country.

76
00:03:54,320 --> 00:03:55,760
Speaker 4: We're going to allow them to stay. We're going to

77
00:03:55,800 --> 00:03:59,680
Speaker 4: grant them parole. That's what it's supposed to be used for. Instead,

78
00:03:59,720 --> 00:04:02,960
Speaker 4: not only has the Biden administration used it to try

79
00:04:03,000 --> 00:04:06,800
Speaker 4: to backdoor all of these would be illegal border crossers

80
00:04:06,840 --> 00:04:09,640
Speaker 4: to enter the country, but now they've rolled out this

81
00:04:09,680 --> 00:04:13,320
Speaker 4: new program for those four countries that you meant in Honduras,

82
00:04:13,680 --> 00:04:17,919
Speaker 4: Al Salvador, Guatemala, and Columbia, where people who have already

83
00:04:17,960 --> 00:04:23,039
Speaker 4: been approved for green cards in those countries can bypass

84
00:04:23,120 --> 00:04:25,920
Speaker 4: the waiting period and immediately come to the United States

85
00:04:25,920 --> 00:04:28,160
Speaker 4: and wait for their green cards while they're here in

86
00:04:28,200 --> 00:04:31,719
Speaker 4: the United States. And this has been forbidden in the past,

87
00:04:32,160 --> 00:04:35,360
Speaker 4: but they're using this little back pocket trick that they

88
00:04:35,400 --> 00:04:37,880
Speaker 4: have called parole to try to do it, and it

89
00:04:38,000 --> 00:04:41,120
Speaker 4: just leads you. It makes you wonder, there's about four

90
00:04:41,160 --> 00:04:45,160
Speaker 4: million people on this family preference backlog list. Are they

91
00:04:45,200 --> 00:04:47,800
Speaker 4: going to expand this beyond those four countries? Are they

92
00:04:47,880 --> 00:04:50,560
Speaker 4: just sort of testing the waters with this new program.

93
00:04:50,800 --> 00:04:54,000
Speaker 4: But these are people who may not even be necessarily

94
00:04:54,080 --> 00:04:57,440
Speaker 4: wanting to come here illegally because they're trying to enter

95
00:04:57,480 --> 00:05:00,880
Speaker 4: the United States the right way. Well, again, Biden administration

96
00:05:01,000 --> 00:05:02,560
Speaker 4: is just going to skip them to the front of the.

97
00:05:02,520 --> 00:05:05,880
Speaker 2: Line and then right away anyway, right, they have family

98
00:05:05,880 --> 00:05:08,280
Speaker 2: members in the US. That's what qualifies.

99
00:05:07,760 --> 00:05:13,680
Speaker 4: Them, correct, Yeah, they have in all likelihood, there's a

100
00:05:13,800 --> 00:05:17,160
Speaker 4: US citizen, a former foreign national from one of these

101
00:05:17,200 --> 00:05:19,440
Speaker 4: four countries that's now a US citizen. They've got a

102
00:05:19,440 --> 00:05:21,640
Speaker 4: green card, they became a US citizen, and now they're

103
00:05:21,680 --> 00:05:24,640
Speaker 4: sponsoring their adult family members to come here into the

104
00:05:24,720 --> 00:05:29,120
Speaker 4: United States. But there are these per country limits, annual

105
00:05:29,200 --> 00:05:32,200
Speaker 4: caps that we have. So not only are these categories

106
00:05:32,279 --> 00:05:35,400
Speaker 4: capped at let's say twenty five thousand per year, for example,

107
00:05:35,640 --> 00:05:38,080
Speaker 4: but then only a certain number of visas can go

108
00:05:38,200 --> 00:05:42,320
Speaker 4: to individuals from each individual country. And so what they're

109
00:05:42,360 --> 00:05:45,359
Speaker 4: doing is they're waiving these lines and allowing them to

110
00:05:45,400 --> 00:05:46,120
Speaker 4: come in sooner.

111
00:05:46,480 --> 00:05:50,479
Speaker 2: So, since Congress authorized the basics is of a parole program,

112
00:05:50,920 --> 00:05:55,440
Speaker 2: it was intended for individual cases. Is the Biden administration

113
00:05:55,600 --> 00:05:59,159
Speaker 2: allowed to offer it to thousands and thousands or is

114
00:05:59,200 --> 00:05:59,880
Speaker 2: this a violation?

115
00:06:00,960 --> 00:06:03,520
Speaker 4: Yeah, that's the question. See, the Biden administration will tell you, well,

116
00:06:03,560 --> 00:06:05,480
Speaker 4: we are doing it on a case by case basis

117
00:06:05,480 --> 00:06:07,920
Speaker 4: because we're looking at their application and we're rubber stamping

118
00:06:07,920 --> 00:06:09,760
Speaker 4: it and moving on to the next one. So we

119
00:06:09,800 --> 00:06:12,560
Speaker 4: actually have to rubber stamp each an individual case as

120
00:06:12,560 --> 00:06:15,760
Speaker 4: we go through them. That's how they're saying, we're doing

121
00:06:15,839 --> 00:06:19,640
Speaker 4: a case by case evaluation of each one of these individuals.

122
00:06:20,360 --> 00:06:22,840
Speaker 4: But in essence, what they're doing is they are applying

123
00:06:22,880 --> 00:06:25,760
Speaker 4: it to full blown classes of people. And that's not

124
00:06:25,880 --> 00:06:28,760
Speaker 4: in the spirit of the law that was passed by Congress. Again,

125
00:06:28,800 --> 00:06:31,400
Speaker 4: when Congress passed this parole, it was supposed to be

126
00:06:31,440 --> 00:06:36,360
Speaker 4: based on these extreme hardships humanitarian needs. Again, the example

127
00:06:36,360 --> 00:06:38,680
Speaker 4: that I gave somebody is in the country that their

128
00:06:38,760 --> 00:06:42,080
Speaker 4: visa is expiring, but they're appendix first. We're not going

129
00:06:42,120 --> 00:06:43,800
Speaker 4: to send them home. We're going to allow them to

130
00:06:44,640 --> 00:06:47,080
Speaker 4: get the metal care that they need, even though they're

131
00:06:47,080 --> 00:06:49,520
Speaker 4: going to fall out of legal status. Offer them parole

132
00:06:49,640 --> 00:06:53,320
Speaker 4: so they're here legally or they're not here illegally. That's

133
00:06:53,320 --> 00:06:55,720
Speaker 4: the way I should say it, because they're not necessarily

134
00:06:55,760 --> 00:06:59,160
Speaker 4: here legally. They're just paroled, which means they can't be

135
00:06:59,240 --> 00:07:03,719
Speaker 4: deported and they're allowed to leave. That's what Congress intended

136
00:07:03,760 --> 00:07:06,839
Speaker 4: when it passed this parole provision. But again, not only

137
00:07:06,880 --> 00:07:09,080
Speaker 4: are they using it for these family members, but they've

138
00:07:09,120 --> 00:07:12,480
Speaker 4: been using it for tens of thousands, if not hundreds

139
00:07:12,480 --> 00:07:14,720
Speaker 4: of thousands of would be illegal border crossing.

140
00:07:15,080 --> 00:07:17,680
Speaker 3: Your pressure release says they're using these pro programs to

141
00:07:17,680 --> 00:07:21,320
Speaker 3: allow nearly one hundred thousand migrants to the country every month.

142
00:07:22,040 --> 00:07:25,080
Speaker 4: Right, Yeah, yeah, that's essentially what they've done. And this

143
00:07:25,200 --> 00:07:27,520
Speaker 4: was one of their prior announcements earlier in the year.

144
00:07:27,720 --> 00:07:30,480
Speaker 4: At the end of last year, is they said, well,

145
00:07:30,640 --> 00:07:33,600
Speaker 4: most of the illegal border crossers that we're seeing, which

146
00:07:33,640 --> 00:07:36,280
Speaker 4: we now know is untrue because we're still seeing an

147
00:07:36,360 --> 00:07:39,600
Speaker 4: increase in illegal border crossings. But what they're saying is

148
00:07:39,640 --> 00:07:43,920
Speaker 4: that most of them are just trying to escape political

149
00:07:43,960 --> 00:07:46,480
Speaker 4: strife in their home countries. They're coming from Cuba, they're

150
00:07:46,520 --> 00:07:49,760
Speaker 4: coming from Haiti, they're coming from Al Salvador, Venezuela, and

151
00:07:50,120 --> 00:07:52,880
Speaker 4: they might qualify for asylum here. So what they did

152
00:07:53,000 --> 00:07:56,360
Speaker 4: was they created parole programs where those people can actually

153
00:07:56,440 --> 00:07:59,560
Speaker 4: apply from outside the United States for these parole programs

154
00:07:59,760 --> 00:08:01,800
Speaker 4: and they just fly him in through the back door.

155
00:08:02,280 --> 00:08:04,840
Speaker 4: And what it does is it reduces the number of

156
00:08:04,880 --> 00:08:07,560
Speaker 4: illegal border crossings. So it looks like they have the

157
00:08:07,560 --> 00:08:10,680
Speaker 4: border crisis under control, but really we still have the

158
00:08:10,680 --> 00:08:13,800
Speaker 4: same number of the authorized individuals entering the United States.

159
00:08:13,800 --> 00:08:16,280
Speaker 2: Can they get tripped up in court at all with

160
00:08:16,400 --> 00:08:17,240
Speaker 2: these programs.

161
00:08:18,600 --> 00:08:22,240
Speaker 4: Well, we've got a couple of cases that are starting

162
00:08:22,280 --> 00:08:25,720
Speaker 4: to make their way. We had one that that didn't

163
00:08:25,720 --> 00:08:27,880
Speaker 4: do so well at the Supreme Court, but that one

164
00:08:27,960 --> 00:08:31,120
Speaker 4: dealt more so with interior enforcement rather than the use

165
00:08:31,160 --> 00:08:33,320
Speaker 4: of parole. So I think it's not going to be

166
00:08:33,440 --> 00:08:37,200
Speaker 4: until probably the next Supreme Court session where we may

167
00:08:37,280 --> 00:08:40,760
Speaker 4: actually see some of these parole challenges get before the

168
00:08:40,800 --> 00:08:43,439
Speaker 4: Supreme Court. But by then, you know we're going to

169
00:08:43,480 --> 00:08:45,840
Speaker 4: be We're going to be in an electioneer soon. Who

170
00:08:45,880 --> 00:08:48,000
Speaker 4: knows what's going to happen, and the damage is being

171
00:08:48,080 --> 00:08:51,560
Speaker 4: done up until that point. So until we have a

172
00:08:51,640 --> 00:08:54,840
Speaker 4: judge issues some sort of a nationwide junction that says, no,

173
00:08:55,040 --> 00:08:57,920
Speaker 4: you can't do this, They're going to continue to do it.

174
00:08:58,200 --> 00:09:03,000
Speaker 2: Eric Adams, Mayor of New York, was on TV yesterday

175
00:09:03,080 --> 00:09:05,520
Speaker 2: or today and he was complaining that New York has

176
00:09:05,640 --> 00:09:08,920
Speaker 2: taken in about eighty five thousand immigrants and he's got

177
00:09:08,920 --> 00:09:11,640
Speaker 2: nowhere to put him and none of them have any jobs.

178
00:09:12,160 --> 00:09:14,840
Speaker 2: And I guess technically they're not allowed to get jobs,

179
00:09:15,000 --> 00:09:17,679
Speaker 2: at least not on the books. And he was calling

180
00:09:17,760 --> 00:09:21,040
Speaker 2: for those laws to be relaxed so at least the

181
00:09:21,080 --> 00:09:23,280
Speaker 2: illegal aliens could be put to work. And I guess

182
00:09:23,400 --> 00:09:25,920
Speaker 2: two thoughts I had, is there any going to be

183
00:09:25,920 --> 00:09:30,920
Speaker 2: any move to give them legal work status, because that's

184
00:09:30,960 --> 00:09:32,880
Speaker 2: just eighty five thousand in New York. You know, we've

185
00:09:32,920 --> 00:09:34,880
Speaker 2: got millions and millions across the country.

186
00:09:35,920 --> 00:09:38,760
Speaker 4: Yeah. Well, a lot of them have received or are

187
00:09:38,800 --> 00:09:42,640
Speaker 4: in the process of getting work authorization from the federal government,

188
00:09:42,679 --> 00:09:45,800
Speaker 4: because once they receive parole from the federal government, after

189
00:09:45,840 --> 00:09:49,559
Speaker 4: a certain period of time, they can apply for work authorization.

190
00:09:50,000 --> 00:09:54,479
Speaker 4: And the Biden administration has been giving them employment authorization documents.

191
00:09:54,960 --> 00:09:57,040
Speaker 4: So it's only a matter of time before those people

192
00:09:57,120 --> 00:09:59,760
Speaker 4: are legally authorized to work in the United States. But

193
00:10:00,080 --> 00:10:01,640
Speaker 4: you know, the one question that I would have for

194
00:10:01,720 --> 00:10:04,760
Speaker 4: Mayor Adams is are there any New York US citizen

195
00:10:04,880 --> 00:10:08,680
Speaker 4: residents that that are Do you have full employment in

196
00:10:08,720 --> 00:10:10,199
Speaker 4: the City of New York right now?

197
00:10:10,360 --> 00:10:10,720
Speaker 1: Yes?

198
00:10:11,080 --> 00:10:13,640
Speaker 4: Do you have any New Yorkers themselves that are looking

199
00:10:13,679 --> 00:10:15,959
Speaker 4: for work? I would bet, but yeah, there probably are.

200
00:10:16,120 --> 00:10:18,040
Speaker 1: They have plenty of people on welfare who don't want

201
00:10:18,040 --> 00:10:18,400
Speaker 1: to work.

202
00:10:18,840 --> 00:10:22,120
Speaker 2: But the second thing I was thinking is like, since

203
00:10:22,120 --> 00:10:25,280
Speaker 2: Adams is making so much noise, is there any chance

204
00:10:25,800 --> 00:10:29,600
Speaker 2: of some serious blowback that would cause the Biden administration

205
00:10:29,679 --> 00:10:33,000
Speaker 2: to change course. I mean, you've got these sanctuary city

206
00:10:33,080 --> 00:10:35,760
Speaker 2: mayors who are waving their arms saying we can't take anymore.

207
00:10:35,920 --> 00:10:37,520
Speaker 2: There's got to be a breaking point.

208
00:10:37,600 --> 00:10:41,800
Speaker 4: It's some time, Yeah, I think, you know, I think

209
00:10:41,840 --> 00:10:46,079
Speaker 4: if they had suffered more losses in the twenty twenty

210
00:10:46,120 --> 00:10:49,920
Speaker 4: two midterms that maybe they would have shifted gears. But

211
00:10:50,040 --> 00:10:53,920
Speaker 4: I think they feel that this is not for a

212
00:10:54,040 --> 00:10:57,200
Speaker 4: large swath of voters. This isn't an important enough issue.

213
00:10:57,280 --> 00:11:02,480
Speaker 4: So there's there's no political liability for them to continue

214
00:11:02,520 --> 00:11:05,960
Speaker 4: and move forward with these policies. So until voters actually

215
00:11:06,040 --> 00:11:09,760
Speaker 4: start punishing the Biden administration and the members of Congress

216
00:11:09,800 --> 00:11:13,320
Speaker 4: that are supportive of these policies until they start getting

217
00:11:13,320 --> 00:11:16,079
Speaker 4: punished by the voters and start losing their job. I

218
00:11:16,120 --> 00:11:18,360
Speaker 4: don't think the Biden administration is going to change their way.

219
00:11:18,520 --> 00:11:21,560
Speaker 2: It's costing New York City eight million dollars a day,

220
00:11:22,280 --> 00:11:23,840
Speaker 2: eight million dollars a day.

221
00:11:23,960 --> 00:11:24,920
Speaker 1: I'm just stinshing.

222
00:11:24,960 --> 00:11:28,320
Speaker 4: All right, thanks for coming on with us, absolutely anytime.

223
00:11:28,559 --> 00:11:29,480
Speaker 1: All right, that's numbers.

224
00:11:29,559 --> 00:11:34,200
Speaker 3: USA Vice President Chris Shimolenski talking about all the ways

225
00:11:34,240 --> 00:11:37,120
Speaker 3: the Biden administration is letting immigrants into the country so

226
00:11:37,120 --> 00:11:39,520
Speaker 3: they don't pile up at the bordering Accountant's legal immigrants.

227
00:11:39,520 --> 00:11:43,080
Speaker 3: They get something called parole opening programs one hundred thousand

228
00:11:43,600 --> 00:11:44,080
Speaker 3: a month.

229
00:11:44,600 --> 00:11:46,079
Speaker 1: That's over a million a year. They're going to get

230
00:11:46,080 --> 00:11:47,560
Speaker 1: into these parole programs.

231
00:11:48,000 --> 00:11:49,839
Speaker 3: All right, Chance for Money coming up next Down and

Speaker 5: AM six forty.

235
00:12:00,000 --> 00:12:02,320
Speaker 1: Alright, we got some Washington DC audio to play.

236
00:12:02,760 --> 00:12:07,080
Speaker 3: Yesterday, we examined more closely the Vice President Kamala Harris

237
00:12:07,120 --> 00:12:10,920
Speaker 3: comparing her grilling of Brett Kavanaugh of the Supreme Court

238
00:12:11,000 --> 00:12:14,120
Speaker 3: in twenty eighteen to the babbel that she spews it

239
00:12:14,160 --> 00:12:17,640
Speaker 3: seems weekly, in this case daily. We got another clip.

240
00:12:18,040 --> 00:12:23,120
Speaker 3: She appeared today with the Transportation Secretary Pete Boodagic for

241
00:12:23,200 --> 00:12:25,200
Speaker 3: I remember when he was like the next big thing.

242
00:12:25,640 --> 00:12:27,120
Speaker 1: Yeah, now he's not.

243
00:12:27,520 --> 00:12:29,920
Speaker 3: They thought with Biden ailing that this is the guy

244
00:12:30,040 --> 00:12:31,280
Speaker 3: to push in twenty four they.

245
00:12:31,240 --> 00:12:32,400
Speaker 1: Didn't to talk about him anymore.

246
00:12:32,480 --> 00:12:36,720
Speaker 2: Now he's botched up every form of transportation as Transportation secretary.

247
00:12:36,800 --> 00:12:38,719
Speaker 3: Yeah, he's another dud. At least this is a dud

248
00:12:38,760 --> 00:12:41,040
Speaker 3: that didn't come from California. This time in Vienna.

249
00:12:41,760 --> 00:12:44,160
Speaker 1: Uh, the topic of course was transportation.

250
00:12:44,800 --> 00:12:50,960
Speaker 3: Listen carefully, Kamala Harris makes an unbelievable statement here concerning

251
00:12:51,000 --> 00:12:54,560
Speaker 3: the subject of transportation, and I again want to thank

252
00:12:54,760 --> 00:12:58,079
Speaker 3: the Secretary for your work. This issue of.

253
00:12:58,040 --> 00:13:02,640
Speaker 6: Transportation is funundamentally about just making sure that people have

254
00:13:02,760 --> 00:13:04,520
Speaker 6: the ability to get where they need to go.

255
00:13:05,520 --> 00:13:06,440
Speaker 1: It's that basic.

256
00:13:08,640 --> 00:13:08,880
Speaker 4: Wow.

257
00:13:09,720 --> 00:13:14,920
Speaker 3: The event was about disability rights advocates to increase transportation accessibility,

258
00:13:14,960 --> 00:13:18,480
Speaker 3: and that was her big moment. It's that basic, yeap,

259
00:13:18,600 --> 00:13:20,600
Speaker 3: just get where you need to go. We had to

260
00:13:20,640 --> 00:13:24,000
Speaker 3: have her weigh in on that. Meanwhile, over in the

261
00:13:24,000 --> 00:13:28,520
Speaker 3: House of Representatives. Of course, the House of Representatives is

262
00:13:28,520 --> 00:13:31,480
Speaker 3: controlled by the Republicans, so their committees pick what they

263
00:13:31,480 --> 00:13:34,240
Speaker 3: want to do. They called in the FBI director, Christopher Ray,

264
00:13:35,880 --> 00:13:37,760
Speaker 3: and they grilled him about a bunch of things, including

265
00:13:37,840 --> 00:13:42,680
Speaker 3: January sixth, But this subject was concerning the Bidens and

266
00:13:42,760 --> 00:13:45,160
Speaker 3: Hunter Biden's you know, just got a sweet deal with

267
00:13:45,240 --> 00:13:49,640
Speaker 3: the Justice Department concerning his tax fraud and is only

268
00:13:49,679 --> 00:13:54,000
Speaker 3: a gun anyway. This is about in August twenty seventeen,

269
00:13:54,720 --> 00:13:58,000
Speaker 3: a couple of messages in July and August twenty seventeen

270
00:13:58,200 --> 00:14:01,640
Speaker 3: that Hunter Biden was demanding money from a Chinese business

271
00:14:01,640 --> 00:14:05,720
Speaker 3: associate and referring to h uh basically the big guy

272
00:14:06,040 --> 00:14:06,959
Speaker 3: being right there.

273
00:14:06,840 --> 00:14:07,440
Speaker 1: Next to him.

274
00:14:08,800 --> 00:14:13,240
Speaker 3: Some Gates actually read the WhatsApp messages and grilled Rey

275
00:14:13,280 --> 00:14:15,200
Speaker 3: as to why this isn't a bigger deal.

276
00:14:15,280 --> 00:14:16,240
Speaker 1: Here's how it went down.

277
00:14:16,440 --> 00:14:19,640
Speaker 7: I'm sitting here with my father. I will make certain

278
00:14:19,880 --> 00:14:22,000
Speaker 7: that between the man sitting next to me and every

279
00:14:22,040 --> 00:14:25,200
Speaker 7: person he knows, and my ability to forever hold a grudge,

280
00:14:25,320 --> 00:14:29,040
Speaker 7: that you will regret not following my direction. I am

281
00:14:29,080 --> 00:14:34,160
Speaker 7: sitting here waiting for the call with my father. Sounds

282
00:14:34,160 --> 00:14:35,920
Speaker 7: like a shakedown, doesn't A director.

283
00:14:38,200 --> 00:14:39,760
Speaker 1: I'm not going to get into comedy on that.

284
00:14:40,240 --> 00:14:44,400
Speaker 7: You you seem deeply uncurious about it, don't you? Almost

285
00:14:44,440 --> 00:14:47,080
Speaker 7: suspiciously uncurious? Are you protecting the Bidens?

286
00:14:48,280 --> 00:14:49,760
Speaker 1: Absolutely not the FBI.

287
00:14:51,600 --> 00:14:53,480
Speaker 7: You won't answer your question about whether or not that's

288
00:14:53,520 --> 00:14:56,600
Speaker 7: a shakedown, And everybody knows why you won't answer it

289
00:14:56,680 --> 00:14:59,480
Speaker 7: because to the millions of people who will see this,

290
00:15:00,080 --> 00:15:02,600
Speaker 7: they know it is. And your an ability to acknowledge

291
00:15:02,640 --> 00:15:04,520
Speaker 7: that is deeply revealing about you.

292
00:15:05,520 --> 00:15:08,960
Speaker 2: Right, He's got it, right, Yeah, the Bidens are a

293
00:15:08,960 --> 00:15:11,360
Speaker 2: crime family and they've been for a long time. And

294
00:15:11,520 --> 00:15:13,560
Speaker 2: Hunter is the guy who busts heads.

295
00:15:15,040 --> 00:15:17,400
Speaker 3: So but if you have a justice department that's controlled

296
00:15:17,440 --> 00:15:20,960
Speaker 3: by the Bidens right now, an attorney general and an

297
00:15:21,000 --> 00:15:23,120
Speaker 3: FBI chief, I don't think there's going to be anything.

298
00:15:23,280 --> 00:15:25,360
Speaker 2: No, there's no come of this, right, So he has

299
00:15:25,400 --> 00:15:31,760
Speaker 2: to sit there and just stare because clearly that was

300
00:15:31,760 --> 00:15:38,520
Speaker 2: a threat from Hunter Biden, right, And he This was

301
00:15:38,600 --> 00:15:44,480
Speaker 2: to the CEFC China Energy translator named Raymond Joao. Raymond

302
00:15:44,560 --> 00:15:47,760
Speaker 2: Joo is his name, right, and Hunt's a part of

303
00:15:47,800 --> 00:15:51,640
Speaker 2: the Communist Chinese Party, right, Yeah, Hunter wrote to this,

304
00:15:52,320 --> 00:15:55,120
Speaker 2: Raymond Joo tell the director, I would like to resolve

305
00:15:55,160 --> 00:15:57,480
Speaker 2: this now before it gets out of hand, and now

306
00:15:57,560 --> 00:16:00,440
Speaker 2: means tonight. I will make certain that the man sitting

307
00:16:00,440 --> 00:16:03,440
Speaker 2: next to me, that's Joe Biden and every person he knows,

308
00:16:03,640 --> 00:16:06,880
Speaker 2: and my ability to forever hold a grudge, that you

309
00:16:07,000 --> 00:16:10,880
Speaker 2: will regret not following my direction. I am sitting here

310
00:16:10,920 --> 00:16:13,960
Speaker 2: waiting for the call with my father. So it's not

311
00:16:14,040 --> 00:16:18,320
Speaker 2: even the big guy euphemism. It's clearly Joe brought Joe Biden.

312
00:16:19,000 --> 00:16:20,600
Speaker 3: They not even call Biden out in the fact that

313
00:16:20,640 --> 00:16:22,840
Speaker 3: he says repeatedly, I have nothing to do with my

314
00:16:22,880 --> 00:16:24,320
Speaker 3: son's business affairs.

315
00:16:24,640 --> 00:16:29,040
Speaker 2: But Biden lies, I mean compulsively about everything.

316
00:16:29,440 --> 00:16:31,920
Speaker 3: They did prove that that day Hunter Biden was at

317
00:16:31,920 --> 00:16:34,440
Speaker 3: Biden's Delaware home. We don't know whether not Joe was

318
00:16:34,480 --> 00:16:37,720
Speaker 3: actually there or he was bluffing, but we do know

319
00:16:37,920 --> 00:16:40,360
Speaker 3: that Hunter Biden was at the Delaware home that day

320
00:16:40,400 --> 00:16:42,080
Speaker 3: when he sent those WhatsApp messages.

321
00:16:42,560 --> 00:16:43,720
Speaker 1: But all right, we got more coming up.

322
00:16:43,760 --> 00:16:47,200
Speaker 3: John and Ken KFI AM six forty Live everywhere iHeartRadio app.

323
00:16:48,240 --> 00:16:51,560
Speaker 5: You're listening to John and Ken on demand from KFI

324
00:16:51,800 --> 00:16:52,760
Speaker 5: AM six forty.

325
00:16:54,800 --> 00:16:56,920
Speaker 2: You can hear us on the radio from one until four.

326
00:16:57,040 --> 00:16:59,960
Speaker 2: Then after four o'clock, the iHeart app for the John

327
00:17:00,080 --> 00:17:04,600
Speaker 2: and Ken on demand podcast and that that Holt shows there.

328
00:17:04,960 --> 00:17:07,560
Speaker 2: So it was shrunk down and digitized and just absorbed

329
00:17:07,600 --> 00:17:11,879
Speaker 2: into that and you could listen to that anytime you want, as.

330
00:17:11,800 --> 00:17:12,400
Speaker 1: Much as you want.

331
00:17:12,600 --> 00:17:15,840
Speaker 3: Assembly Member Tom Lackey will join us after three o'clock

332
00:17:15,960 --> 00:17:18,240
Speaker 3: the one of two yes votes on the Public Safety

333
00:17:18,240 --> 00:17:21,320
Speaker 3: Committee and Sacramento in the Assembly on this bill that

334
00:17:21,359 --> 00:17:23,840
Speaker 3: would have classified human trafficking of a minor as a

335
00:17:23,880 --> 00:17:27,119
Speaker 3: serious felony, making it a strike, and of course that

336
00:17:27,200 --> 00:17:30,200
Speaker 3: leads to much more prison time. We'll get his thoughts

337
00:17:30,240 --> 00:17:33,640
Speaker 3: as he watched this unfold yesterday. This bill died because

338
00:17:33,760 --> 00:17:35,200
Speaker 3: all the Democrats abstained.

339
00:17:35,400 --> 00:17:36,399
Speaker 1: They wouldn't even vote.

340
00:17:36,840 --> 00:17:40,240
Speaker 3: And Reggie Jones Sawyer giggled when the audience was growing

341
00:17:40,240 --> 00:17:40,920
Speaker 3: and angry with this.

342
00:17:41,080 --> 00:17:45,399
Speaker 2: And this is about young girls. Girl half of them

343
00:17:45,400 --> 00:17:48,440
Speaker 2: are under the age of ten, being sold into sex,

344
00:17:48,520 --> 00:17:54,800
Speaker 2: slavery and forced labor and by guys, by adult men.

345
00:17:55,800 --> 00:17:58,720
Speaker 2: And you know they've they've got guys having sex with

346
00:17:58,800 --> 00:18:02,520
Speaker 2: him and maybe every day they're life these and Reggie

347
00:18:02,600 --> 00:18:05,280
Speaker 2: Jones Sawyer, the head of this committee, does not want

348
00:18:05,320 --> 00:18:11,000
Speaker 2: to prosecute these characters anymore. Than they are already prosecuted,

349
00:18:11,000 --> 00:18:13,440
Speaker 2: which means in reality, they get less than four years

350
00:18:13,440 --> 00:18:13,879
Speaker 2: in prison.

351
00:18:14,400 --> 00:18:17,680
Speaker 3: The update is that apparently there's a chance that this

352
00:18:17,760 --> 00:18:19,960
Speaker 3: may move to the full Assembly for a vote. Anyway,

353
00:18:19,960 --> 00:18:23,159
Speaker 3: you had already passed the state Senate. It's common sense,

354
00:18:23,560 --> 00:18:26,320
Speaker 3: it's the right thing to do. We'll talk about it

355
00:18:26,320 --> 00:18:28,400
Speaker 3: with Tom Lackey after three.

356
00:18:29,000 --> 00:18:29,760
Speaker 1: This story.

357
00:18:30,040 --> 00:18:33,520
Speaker 3: When you look for California homelessness stories, and of course

358
00:18:33,560 --> 00:18:36,480
Speaker 3: the reports in the La County count was pretty high.

359
00:18:36,600 --> 00:18:40,240
Speaker 3: When they come out, you always see coverage from Fox News,

360
00:18:40,359 --> 00:18:42,600
Speaker 3: the Wall Street Journal of the New York Post. You

361
00:18:42,760 --> 00:18:48,000
Speaker 3: rarely see coverage from CNN. And what's a bonus in this? John,

362
00:18:48,119 --> 00:18:51,320
Speaker 3: I'd not really know much about this guy, Jason Elliott.

363
00:18:51,800 --> 00:18:56,040
Speaker 3: Who's Jason Elliott. He's new some senior advisor on homelessness.

364
00:18:56,080 --> 00:18:58,960
Speaker 3: What a job that is. Here's the report from CNN's

365
00:18:59,080 --> 00:18:59,639
Speaker 3: Nick Watt.

366
00:19:00,119 --> 00:19:04,640
Speaker 8: Seventeen point five billion dollars. That's what California spent fighting

367
00:19:04,680 --> 00:19:08,000
Speaker 8: homelessness over the past four years. At the same time,

368
00:19:08,400 --> 00:19:12,760
Speaker 8: the homeless population of the state grew by around a third.

369
00:19:13,040 --> 00:19:15,720
Speaker 9: The problem would be so much worse absent these interventions,

370
00:19:15,720 --> 00:19:16,680
Speaker 9: and that's not what people want.

371
00:19:16,720 --> 00:19:18,119
Speaker 4: To hear. I get it, we get it.

372
00:19:18,200 --> 00:19:21,840
Speaker 8: Here's some reductive back of the envelope math. With seventeen

373
00:19:21,880 --> 00:19:24,600
Speaker 8: point five billion in theory, the state could have just

374
00:19:24,720 --> 00:19:28,679
Speaker 8: paid the rent for every unhoused person in all four years.

375
00:19:29,000 --> 00:19:31,040
Speaker 9: It is reductive, And can I say why with respect?

376
00:19:31,160 --> 00:19:33,119
Speaker 9: Perhaps that would work for me because I don't have

377
00:19:33,200 --> 00:19:34,760
Speaker 9: significant behavioral health challenges.

378
00:19:34,920 --> 00:19:39,200
Speaker 8: My reductive math did leave maybe three billion for mental

379
00:19:39,240 --> 00:19:42,040
Speaker 8: health and other services. But even if the state did

380
00:19:42,160 --> 00:19:44,640
Speaker 8: just offer to pay the rent, there just aren't enough

381
00:19:44,680 --> 00:19:46,840
Speaker 8: affordable houses to go around.

382
00:19:46,880 --> 00:19:49,639
Speaker 1: Where are we supposed to go? I mean, this is

383
00:19:49,640 --> 00:19:50,639
Speaker 1: what powever you looks like.

384
00:19:50,840 --> 00:19:54,280
Speaker 8: Doctor Margot Kushel was just commissioned to find out who

385
00:19:54,359 --> 00:19:57,680
Speaker 8: is homeless in California and why, in the hope her

386
00:19:57,760 --> 00:20:02,360
Speaker 8: data might fine tune the states response. Her survey has

387
00:20:02,440 --> 00:20:06,520
Speaker 8: busted some myths. Myth number one, most homeless people don't

388
00:20:06,560 --> 00:20:13,120
Speaker 8: want a home, not true. Participants overwhelmingly wanted permanent housing.

389
00:20:13,440 --> 00:20:16,680
Speaker 8: Take Daniel and his disabled son who live on La

390
00:20:16,880 --> 00:20:17,480
Speaker 8: Skid Road.

391
00:20:17,720 --> 00:20:19,840
Speaker 7: You would take it if they offered you housing, Yes,

392
00:20:19,880 --> 00:20:21,480
Speaker 7: I would, yes, we would together.

393
00:20:21,560 --> 00:20:23,760
Speaker 2: Yes, But can you stop it right there a second.

394
00:20:25,560 --> 00:20:31,080
Speaker 2: What they won't take is immediate shelter. That's the problem.

395
00:20:32,040 --> 00:20:34,199
Speaker 2: They won't go into a shelter because they can't do

396
00:20:34,280 --> 00:20:40,040
Speaker 2: their drugs. So that's a little misleading. You offer somebody

397
00:20:40,080 --> 00:20:43,480
Speaker 2: a eight hundred thousand dollars apartment, odds are they'll say sure,

398
00:20:43,960 --> 00:20:46,719
Speaker 2: as long as they can bring all their drugs and

399
00:20:46,760 --> 00:20:49,960
Speaker 2: their blues with them, and then they could throw their

400
00:20:50,200 --> 00:20:52,240
Speaker 2: their waists at the walls.

401
00:20:53,560 --> 00:20:56,880
Speaker 6: Continue you would take it if they offered you housing, Yes.

402
00:20:56,720 --> 00:20:59,639
Speaker 1: I would, Yes, we would together. Yes, I'm his father

403
00:20:59,720 --> 00:21:01,840
Speaker 1: and we are we needed myth Number two.

404
00:21:01,960 --> 00:21:06,040
Speaker 8: Many homeless people here aren't from California, therefore the state

405
00:21:06,400 --> 00:21:07,200
Speaker 8: owes them nothing.

406
00:21:07,440 --> 00:21:10,000
Speaker 6: Nine out of ten people lost their stable housing here.

407
00:21:10,119 --> 00:21:14,639
Speaker 6: These are Californians. We have to create the housing for

408
00:21:14,800 --> 00:21:15,879
Speaker 6: all Californians.

409
00:21:16,040 --> 00:21:18,399
Speaker 8: There is a state plan to build two and a

410
00:21:18,440 --> 00:21:22,320
Speaker 8: half million more homes by twenty thirty. A million among

411
00:21:22,400 --> 00:21:26,120
Speaker 8: them must be affordable. But when it comes to housing,

412
00:21:26,600 --> 00:21:30,040
Speaker 8: zoning is ultimately down to local governments.

413
00:21:30,040 --> 00:21:33,679
Speaker 9: We've got communities in this state that are refusing to

414
00:21:33,720 --> 00:21:36,919
Speaker 9: build low income housing because they say it's all just

415
00:21:37,000 --> 00:21:40,439
Speaker 9: rapists and child molesters. So that's the dynamic that we're facing.

416
00:21:40,680 --> 00:21:43,320
Speaker 8: Past two or three years, the state they say, has

417
00:21:43,359 --> 00:21:47,760
Speaker 8: built thirteen and a half thousand affordable housing units baby Steps.

418
00:21:48,400 --> 00:21:52,439
Speaker 8: Christina Smith just moved into one after five years on

419
00:21:52,520 --> 00:21:52,919
Speaker 8: the street.

420
00:21:53,160 --> 00:21:54,520
Speaker 1: I thought it was big.

421
00:21:56,320 --> 00:21:59,439
Speaker 10: I'm sorry until they give me the key, and then

422
00:21:59,480 --> 00:22:00,600
Speaker 10: I was like, this is real.

423
00:22:01,119 --> 00:22:02,520
Speaker 3: You don't believe it after a while.

424
00:22:02,680 --> 00:22:07,840
Speaker 8: Now to the why why do so many Californians become homeless?

425
00:22:08,000 --> 00:22:09,800
Speaker 10: Even we did have a job and we tried to

426
00:22:09,840 --> 00:22:12,320
Speaker 10: look for housing out here, is like impossible.

427
00:22:12,720 --> 00:22:15,720
Speaker 8: Rent is too high because housing supply is too low,

428
00:22:15,840 --> 00:22:19,639
Speaker 8: and many who fall into homelessness say it's really not

429
00:22:19,720 --> 00:22:20,440
Speaker 8: by much.

430
00:22:20,680 --> 00:22:24,840
Speaker 6: One of the surprising things was how optimistic people were

431
00:22:25,000 --> 00:22:29,520
Speaker 6: that relatively small amounts of money would have prevented their homelessness.

432
00:22:30,000 --> 00:22:31,960
Speaker 6: For a lot of them, that three hundred or five

433
00:22:32,040 --> 00:22:34,720
Speaker 6: hundred dollars a month would do the trick.

434
00:22:35,000 --> 00:22:37,480
Speaker 8: But bigger picture, longer term, at.

435
00:22:37,400 --> 00:22:38,919
Speaker 9: The end of the day, if we want to truly

436
00:22:38,960 --> 00:22:42,280
Speaker 9: solve homelessness in America, we need to build more housing.

437
00:22:42,400 --> 00:22:43,240
Speaker 4: That starts with us.

438
00:22:44,040 --> 00:22:46,400
Speaker 1: You know that there's so much crap in that story.

439
00:22:46,480 --> 00:22:50,119
Speaker 3: Really that starts right out at the beginning of that story,

440
00:22:50,160 --> 00:22:52,280
Speaker 3: where they basically said there was enough money to house

441
00:22:52,280 --> 00:22:55,400
Speaker 3: everybody in the response from this idiot Elliott is, well,

442
00:22:55,440 --> 00:22:57,440
Speaker 3: they have a lot of mental health problems, huh. But

443
00:22:57,560 --> 00:22:59,880
Speaker 3: then the rest of the rest of the piece goes

444
00:23:00,200 --> 00:23:02,080
Speaker 3: to just talk about how they're just average people who

445
00:23:02,080 --> 00:23:03,080
Speaker 3: can't afford the housing.

446
00:23:03,440 --> 00:23:04,720
Speaker 1: Huge contradiction there.

447
00:23:05,200 --> 00:23:08,440
Speaker 2: If they so many of them have mental health problems,

448
00:23:08,960 --> 00:23:12,919
Speaker 2: then it wasn't the housing that was the issue. It

449
00:23:13,000 --> 00:23:16,760
Speaker 2: was their mental illness. It meant they were unemployable. It

450
00:23:16,800 --> 00:23:20,480
Speaker 2: meant they couldn't earn money. They're talking about as little

451
00:23:20,520 --> 00:23:23,480
Speaker 2: as three hundred dollars a month would have changed their lives.

452
00:23:25,040 --> 00:23:28,960
Speaker 2: That's seventy five dollars a week. You can't find a

453
00:23:28,960 --> 00:23:33,399
Speaker 2: way to make an extra seventy five dollars, of course

454
00:23:33,440 --> 00:23:41,399
Speaker 2: you can. That's that's what a few hours of work.

455
00:23:45,119 --> 00:23:47,639
Speaker 2: I mean, I've never heard such garbage in my life.

456
00:23:47,720 --> 00:23:50,360
Speaker 2: In fact, with the minimum wage, like at fifteen dollars,

457
00:23:51,400 --> 00:23:55,920
Speaker 2: that's five hours of work gross, So work seven hours

458
00:23:55,960 --> 00:23:58,720
Speaker 2: to account for the taxes. You can't find a seven

459
00:23:58,760 --> 00:24:01,520
Speaker 2: hours worth of work to get the three hundred to

460
00:24:01,600 --> 00:24:07,800
Speaker 2: keep you in a house. That is total bs, total propaganda, garbage,

461
00:24:07,840 --> 00:24:09,600
Speaker 2: nonsense lies there.

462
00:24:09,760 --> 00:24:12,480
Speaker 3: This doctor Margot Krushell you heard in there. I mean

463
00:24:12,560 --> 00:24:15,080
Speaker 3: she's the director of the University of California, San Francisco,

464
00:24:15,160 --> 00:24:18,120
Speaker 3: the Center for Vulnerable Populations.

465
00:24:17,760 --> 00:24:19,680
Speaker 2: Tell me to fix this, and in on this she's

466
00:24:19,720 --> 00:24:23,880
Speaker 2: an advocate for the state to build free housing.

467
00:24:24,560 --> 00:24:26,840
Speaker 3: We cannot build our way out of this. You cannot

468
00:24:26,880 --> 00:24:30,440
Speaker 3: constantly build permanent housing for everybody who can't afford a

469
00:24:30,480 --> 00:24:35,480
Speaker 3: home in California. You know what, It is unsustainable that idea.

470
00:24:35,200 --> 00:24:37,399
Speaker 2: And every town has the right to say, hey, you

471
00:24:37,440 --> 00:24:39,480
Speaker 2: know what, I don't know. Maybe these are rapists and

472
00:24:39,520 --> 00:24:42,440
Speaker 2: job molesters. We're not taking a chance. I'm not gonna

473
00:24:42,440 --> 00:24:45,240
Speaker 2: trust any guy who lives five years on the street.

474
00:24:45,720 --> 00:24:47,479
Speaker 2: And by the way, you notice they went to a

475
00:24:47,560 --> 00:24:51,959
Speaker 2: woman who is capable of articulating yourself. How wonderful when

476
00:24:52,000 --> 00:24:54,520
Speaker 2: they went to a guy with like a disabled kid too? Right, Yeah,

477
00:24:54,640 --> 00:24:57,960
Speaker 2: did you why don't you interview the methaddicts, because that's

478
00:24:58,000 --> 00:25:01,560
Speaker 2: what I see underneath the four or five freeway. Go

479
00:25:01,600 --> 00:25:03,560
Speaker 2: to the methaddicts and talk to them.

480
00:25:04,000 --> 00:25:06,840
Speaker 3: Seventeen and a half billion, This guy Elliott says, well, yeah,

481
00:25:06,880 --> 00:25:08,560
Speaker 3: perhaps that would work for me because I don't have

482
00:25:08,600 --> 00:25:12,880
Speaker 3: significant behavioral health challenges. That actually tears apart the rest

483
00:25:12,920 --> 00:25:15,719
Speaker 3: of the story, which acts like it's just about building housing.

484
00:25:16,119 --> 00:25:18,760
Speaker 2: Did how come we're twelve percent of the nation's population.

485
00:25:18,880 --> 00:25:23,800
Speaker 2: We have fifty percent of the outdoor homeless fifty percent.

486
00:25:24,600 --> 00:25:29,480
Speaker 2: And they're well, no, no, they're not from out of state, right, sure,

487
00:25:31,800 --> 00:25:32,600
Speaker 2: I've CNN.

488
00:25:32,840 --> 00:25:34,560
Speaker 1: They might as well be the Elsigon Times.

489
00:25:35,160 --> 00:25:40,640
Speaker 2: Yeah, they're useless organizations. They're propaganda organizations for advocacy groups.

490
00:25:41,119 --> 00:25:42,280
Speaker 1: All right, we got more coming up.

491
00:25:42,320 --> 00:25:45,760
Speaker 3: Johnny Ken KFI AM six forty live everywhere iHeartRadio app.

492
00:25:45,840 --> 00:25:47,879
Speaker 1: Yes, you busted the myths. Moron.

493
00:25:49,000 --> 00:25:52,360
Speaker 5: You're listening to John and Ken on demand from KFI

494
00:25:52,560 --> 00:25:53,520
Speaker 5: AM six forty.

495
00:25:57,280 --> 00:26:00,400
Speaker 3: Coming up after three o'clock, seventy Member Tom la will

496
00:26:00,400 --> 00:26:02,919
Speaker 3: be our guest, a Republican on the Assembly Public Safety

497
00:26:02,920 --> 00:26:06,000
Speaker 3: Committee who voted yes on a bill that already passed

498
00:26:06,040 --> 00:26:09,320
Speaker 3: the state Senate, and that's to charge child sex traffickers

499
00:26:09,680 --> 00:26:12,480
Speaker 3: with a serious crime which could put a strike on

500
00:26:12,520 --> 00:26:16,800
Speaker 3: their record lead to significant prison time. It died in

501
00:26:16,840 --> 00:26:20,159
Speaker 3: the Assembly Public Safety Committee because all the Democrats abstained,

502
00:26:20,640 --> 00:26:24,160
Speaker 3: they didn't vote. They'll give us the inside story witnessing

503
00:26:24,160 --> 00:26:26,400
Speaker 3: this on the Public Safety Committee when he joins us

504
00:26:27,040 --> 00:26:30,880
Speaker 3: after three o'clock. The bill, mostly by State Senator Shannon

505
00:26:30,960 --> 00:26:34,840
Speaker 3: Grove from Bakersfield to Republican may get new life, as

506
00:26:34,880 --> 00:26:38,720
Speaker 3: allegedly Newsome's gotten involved, and they may bypass the Public

507
00:26:38,760 --> 00:26:42,160
Speaker 3: Safety Committee and move it to the full Assembly floor. Anyway,

508
00:26:42,240 --> 00:26:45,000
Speaker 3: we'll see what Tom knows about this too after the

509
00:26:45,000 --> 00:26:45,920
Speaker 3: news at three o'clock.

510
00:26:46,080 --> 00:26:48,000
Speaker 1: Well, we even talking about the vagrants again. We thought

511
00:26:48,040 --> 00:26:49,119
Speaker 1: we'd play this for you.

512
00:26:49,160 --> 00:26:52,240
Speaker 3: Bill mallusion is to be an excellent Fox elevene reporter

513
00:26:52,359 --> 00:26:55,960
Speaker 3: Now reports also for Fox News, was doing a stand

514
00:26:56,040 --> 00:27:00,600
Speaker 3: up today from Santa Monica. Now, the story was about

515
00:27:00,600 --> 00:27:04,840
Speaker 3: how Santa Monica might use drones as first responders. But

516
00:27:04,880 --> 00:27:07,159
Speaker 3: the whole thing got a bit derailed by anybody. Have

517
00:27:07,200 --> 00:27:09,919
Speaker 3: a guess the home Let's listen.

518
00:27:10,119 --> 00:27:13,159
Speaker 11: Helicopters over crime scenes in big cities across the country.

519
00:27:13,200 --> 00:27:15,240
Speaker 11: That is nothing new, right, But what is new is

520
00:27:15,280 --> 00:27:17,600
Speaker 11: what Santa Monica is doing. They got a brand new

521
00:27:17,640 --> 00:27:19,560
Speaker 11: eye in the sky they are using.

522
00:27:19,640 --> 00:27:20,320
Speaker 5: Take a look at this.

523
00:27:20,400 --> 00:27:24,679
Speaker 11: So Santa Monica PD here using drones to respond to

524
00:27:24,880 --> 00:27:28,000
Speaker 11: nine to one one calls. These fast flying machines usually

525
00:27:28,040 --> 00:27:30,639
Speaker 11: get there faster than a patrol car. In some cases,

526
00:27:31,000 --> 00:27:33,600
Speaker 11: these drones are over ahead and as little as thirty

527
00:27:33,720 --> 00:27:36,439
Speaker 11: seconds The drone operators can then see what's going on

528
00:27:36,480 --> 00:27:38,920
Speaker 11: in real time and communicate with officers on the ground,

529
00:27:39,000 --> 00:27:41,840
Speaker 11: letting them know about any potential dangers like whether or

530
00:27:41,880 --> 00:27:43,959
Speaker 11: not a suspect has a gun, and take a look

531
00:27:44,000 --> 00:27:46,439
Speaker 11: at some of these incidents, including teens with what looked

532
00:27:46,520 --> 00:27:49,400
Speaker 11: like handguns but turned out to be bb guns, some

533
00:27:49,440 --> 00:27:52,040
Speaker 11: guys firing an air rifle, and what looked like a

534
00:27:52,080 --> 00:27:54,720
Speaker 11: man with a gun but the drone and its operator

535
00:27:54,760 --> 00:27:57,399
Speaker 11: were able to see it was only a lighter. Santa

536
00:27:57,440 --> 00:28:00,000
Speaker 11: Monica has used the drone for some two five hundred

537
00:28:00,040 --> 00:28:02,200
Speaker 11: flights over the past year and a half. It's about

538
00:28:02,200 --> 00:28:04,920
Speaker 11: fifteen to twenty calls a day, and police say having

539
00:28:04,920 --> 00:28:07,240
Speaker 11: this technology is a game changer.

540
00:28:07,320 --> 00:28:09,919
Speaker 12: Real time information and allowing them to go in and

541
00:28:09,960 --> 00:28:14,280
Speaker 12: deal with the situation, manage for them, but relieving their

542
00:28:14,280 --> 00:28:17,680
Speaker 12: stress is compose, giving them that situational awareness that they

543
00:28:17,800 --> 00:28:21,400
Speaker 12: just you couldn't possibly have without this type of technology

544
00:28:21,400 --> 00:28:22,240
Speaker 12: in play now.

545
00:28:22,240 --> 00:28:24,639
Speaker 11: Obviously, using drones and policing, that's not going to come

546
00:28:24,680 --> 00:28:28,679
Speaker 11: without concerns about privacy. Santa Monica and a handful of

547
00:28:28,680 --> 00:28:31,480
Speaker 11: other departments here in SoCal say they only use them

548
00:28:31,520 --> 00:28:33,240
Speaker 11: to respond to nine to one one calls, and they

549
00:28:33,280 --> 00:28:37,040
Speaker 11: strictly prohibit the recording of video over private homes and

550
00:28:37,200 --> 00:28:41,400
Speaker 11: any places where people would reasonably expect to have some privacy.

551
00:28:41,520 --> 00:28:44,760
Speaker 11: Legal experts say there should be limits in how they're used.

552
00:28:44,920 --> 00:28:47,040
Speaker 10: What kind of privacy invasion you have. Are they using

553
00:28:47,120 --> 00:28:52,480
Speaker 10: facial wreck on them, are they using night vision capabilities

554
00:28:52,520 --> 00:28:52,960
Speaker 10: on them?

555
00:28:53,360 --> 00:28:53,600
Speaker 4: Are?

556
00:28:53,760 --> 00:28:56,600
Speaker 10: And then they should be very clear and they should

557
00:28:56,640 --> 00:29:01,560
Speaker 10: have it documented exactly what just the use of a drone.

558
00:29:03,880 --> 00:29:06,760
Speaker 11: Police apartments have to have a special waiver in order

559
00:29:06,800 --> 00:29:09,600
Speaker 11: to fly drones beyond an operator's line of sight. As

560
00:29:09,600 --> 00:29:12,520
Speaker 11: it stands right now, there's only about twelve police departments

561
00:29:12,520 --> 00:29:15,760
Speaker 11: in the country that have that authorization, though more are

562
00:29:15,840 --> 00:29:17,760
Speaker 11: expected to get it in the future.

563
00:29:18,200 --> 00:29:20,760
Speaker 3: Now, he was live on Fox News, so there wasn't

564
00:29:20,840 --> 00:29:21,440
Speaker 3: much they could do.

565
00:29:21,920 --> 00:29:24,600
Speaker 1: Apparently that bleeping I guess came later.

566
00:29:25,000 --> 00:29:29,520
Speaker 2: Could Could they get a drone like to put out

567
00:29:29,600 --> 00:29:33,240
Speaker 2: like a like a like a big arm that would

568
00:29:33,360 --> 00:29:36,000
Speaker 2: snatch the homeless person up into the sky.

569
00:29:36,120 --> 00:29:38,080
Speaker 3: Yeah, I was afraid you were suggesting something else that

570
00:29:38,120 --> 00:29:39,280
Speaker 3: happens in the Middle East A lot.

571
00:29:39,360 --> 00:29:39,960
Speaker 1: No, no, no, like.

572
00:29:39,920 --> 00:29:44,160
Speaker 3: About claw a claw, a long metallic arm with a

573
00:29:44,240 --> 00:29:46,520
Speaker 3: claw to pull them off the stage. You can see

574
00:29:46,560 --> 00:29:49,960
Speaker 3: I have a picture of the because Bill posted on Twitter,

575
00:29:50,520 --> 00:29:53,760
Speaker 3: good morning from beautiful Santa Monica, California, with this transient

576
00:29:53,880 --> 00:29:56,600
Speaker 3: just cussed us out during our entire live shot. Well,

577
00:29:56,680 --> 00:30:00,320
Speaker 3: at the same time, just twenty yards behind us, fancy

578
00:30:00,360 --> 00:30:03,280
Speaker 3: and female was defecating in the street. Yeah, you can

579
00:30:03,320 --> 00:30:05,760
Speaker 3: see her bending over. You don't want to picture.

580
00:30:05,880 --> 00:30:07,720
Speaker 2: We should spend a million and a half dollars and

581
00:30:07,800 --> 00:30:10,880
Speaker 2: give those two people their own homes. That's what we

582
00:30:10,920 --> 00:30:11,320
Speaker 2: ought to do.

583
00:30:12,960 --> 00:30:15,600
Speaker 1: That'll work. Well, yeah, right, that's what they deserve.

584
00:30:16,120 --> 00:30:18,440
Speaker 2: In fact, please take some of the money I work

585
00:30:18,560 --> 00:30:21,440
Speaker 2: for and give it to that guy who's cursing on

586
00:30:21,520 --> 00:30:22,320
Speaker 2: live television.

587
00:30:22,480 --> 00:30:23,480
Speaker 1: Give him a new home.

588
00:30:25,520 --> 00:30:28,720
Speaker 3: I added those beeps by the way, Oh yeah, because

589
00:30:28,720 --> 00:30:29,720
Speaker 3: the live shot would have.

590
00:30:29,680 --> 00:30:32,080
Speaker 1: Been yeah, it played it played live on phone, you.

591
00:30:32,080 --> 00:30:34,760
Speaker 3: Could actually hear the cursing. Well, you could definitely figure

592
00:30:34,760 --> 00:30:35,280
Speaker 3: out the words.

593
00:30:35,320 --> 00:30:35,520
Speaker 1: Yeah.

594
00:30:35,560 --> 00:30:39,120
Speaker 2: Well, on cable you can curse. It's only on broadcasts

595
00:30:39,160 --> 00:30:40,320
Speaker 2: that you can't.

596
00:30:41,480 --> 00:30:43,520
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's true. We're just kind of but they probably

597
00:30:43,520 --> 00:30:44,920
Speaker 1: prefer not to have.

598
00:30:44,840 --> 00:30:47,200
Speaker 2: The Yeah, but you know what, it's perfect for the

599
00:30:47,200 --> 00:30:50,680
Speaker 2: Fox audience to see that you have homeless people screaming

600
00:30:50,680 --> 00:30:51,080
Speaker 2: and cursing.

601
00:30:51,120 --> 00:30:53,200
Speaker 3: Oh, and it's great because he wasn't there for that story.

602
00:30:53,200 --> 00:30:56,520
Speaker 3: He was there for this drone story. This is what happens. Oh,

603
00:30:56,640 --> 00:30:59,720
Speaker 3: the Fox audience must have been laughing or outraged. I

604
00:30:59,760 --> 00:31:02,320
Speaker 3: don't witch, but watching this guy in the background.

605
00:31:03,280 --> 00:31:06,480
Speaker 2: When I went to Florida and mentioned that we're from California,

606
00:31:06,520 --> 00:31:07,880
Speaker 2: people would laugh at us.

607
00:31:09,160 --> 00:31:11,400
Speaker 1: I know, no, we're a national joke.

608
00:31:11,760 --> 00:31:15,240
Speaker 2: Nusston's gonna find out he's governed a national joke.

609
00:31:15,920 --> 00:31:18,200
Speaker 3: There's another story than the that a DMV is not

610
00:31:18,280 --> 00:31:20,400
Speaker 3: letting a guy have a plate which basically says go

611
00:31:20,480 --> 00:31:21,440
Speaker 3: back to California.

612
00:31:21,960 --> 00:31:24,480
Speaker 1: It's like gb DKCA whatever.

613
00:31:24,800 --> 00:31:27,760
Speaker 3: They won't let him have it because it's offensive because

614
00:31:27,760 --> 00:31:30,080
Speaker 3: he's trying to tell Californians don't stay here.

615
00:31:30,960 --> 00:31:33,520
Speaker 2: That is the reputation or sure, and that's going to

616
00:31:33,600 --> 00:31:36,440
Speaker 2: make somebody turn around. Oh look, honey, they don't want

617
00:31:36,520 --> 00:31:38,000
Speaker 2: us look at that license plate.

618
00:31:38,400 --> 00:31:41,760
Speaker 1: Well let's move back. That's outrageous and offensive.

619
00:31:41,800 --> 00:31:45,200
Speaker 2: As a California people offended by license plates.

620
00:31:46,120 --> 00:31:46,440
Speaker 1: Wow.

621
00:31:47,720 --> 00:31:50,600
Speaker 3: Coming up next, Assembly Member Tom Lackey will join us,

622
00:31:51,000 --> 00:31:54,160
Speaker 3: a Republican who voted, of course yes on the Assembly

Speaker 3: Public Safety Committee to make child trafficking a serious Feldlting

624
00:31:58,960 --> 00:32:01,920
Speaker 3: in California, but the bill died because the Democrats on

00:32:01,960 --> 00:32:05,000
Speaker 3: the committee have stained. Will give you the full update.

626
00:32:05,040 --> 00:32:07,959
Speaker 3: We'll get Tom's reaction after the news. Johnny Ken KFI
