1 00:00:00,040 --> 00:00:03,200 Speaker 1: All the neighborhoods around the Brentwood country Club, around Lockdown. 2 00:00:04,040 --> 00:00:08,879 Speaker 1: Oh still, yeah, this is hours ago, though you he's 3 00:00:08,920 --> 00:00:13,080 Speaker 1: still loose. In fact, there's a big school right across 4 00:00:13,119 --> 00:00:15,160 Speaker 1: the street from the Brentwood country Club, and they think 5 00:00:15,160 --> 00:00:18,360 Speaker 1: the line is loose running around the golf course. And 6 00:00:18,400 --> 00:00:21,080 Speaker 1: then across the street is a school. It runs almost 7 00:00:21,120 --> 00:00:23,759 Speaker 1: a block long. And now we're hearing that they tranquilized 8 00:00:24,120 --> 00:00:26,119 Speaker 1: or did they get him? Yeah, so they're waiting for 9 00:00:26,520 --> 00:00:28,440 Speaker 1: him to fall him. I shouldn't say they're waiting for 10 00:00:28,480 --> 00:00:31,240 Speaker 1: the animal to fall asleep. That's according to the news 11 00:00:31,280 --> 00:00:35,760 Speaker 1: department in my ear. Just now. Yeah, I saw just 12 00:00:35,800 --> 00:00:40,840 Speaker 1: a TV report on Channel seven Live. And I guess 13 00:00:41,440 --> 00:00:45,680 Speaker 1: they caught him inside the golf course. Yeah, yes, they 14 00:00:45,720 --> 00:00:50,280 Speaker 1: caught him inside the golf course. Tranquilized the animal. I 15 00:00:50,320 --> 00:00:52,680 Speaker 1: guess the animal was in a tree. So they're waiting 16 00:00:52,720 --> 00:00:57,760 Speaker 1: for the animal to fall asleep and then they fall 17 00:00:57,800 --> 00:00:59,880 Speaker 1: out of the tree and then die. Well, let's not 18 00:01:00,280 --> 00:01:03,080 Speaker 1: oh what I mean, it's in a tree. Tranquil life 19 00:01:03,120 --> 00:01:05,200 Speaker 1: in a tree. I don't know, that's what I'm being too. 20 00:01:05,280 --> 00:01:08,360 Speaker 1: I guess I guess the it climbed a tree and 21 00:01:08,440 --> 00:01:10,000 Speaker 1: so they were able to get a good look and 22 00:01:10,040 --> 00:01:12,160 Speaker 1: take a shot at it. But it ken has a 23 00:01:12,160 --> 00:01:15,000 Speaker 1: good point. I hope it doesn't fall. You know, it's 24 00:01:15,120 --> 00:01:18,080 Speaker 1: snoring away and you have to put down the mattress. 25 00:01:18,520 --> 00:01:21,000 Speaker 1: Oh oh that's a good idea. Yeah, like that guy 26 00:01:21,040 --> 00:01:23,000 Speaker 1: for the chase the other day. Right now, say just 27 00:01:23,080 --> 00:01:26,360 Speaker 1: in case. But I'm solved. What a mountain leons taste like? No? 28 00:01:26,440 --> 00:01:28,960 Speaker 1: But who eats mountain lions? No? I don't know. That's 29 00:01:28,959 --> 00:01:32,960 Speaker 1: why I'm asked. Probably yeah, aren't they protected though? Yeah? 30 00:01:33,040 --> 00:01:35,440 Speaker 1: Probably sure, But I just you know, yeah, like people 31 00:01:35,480 --> 00:01:37,559 Speaker 1: care about that. If he does fall out of the tree, 32 00:01:37,560 --> 00:01:39,840 Speaker 1: you'd hate to have it go to waste. Well, they 33 00:01:39,920 --> 00:01:42,480 Speaker 1: only usually just get run over by cars there, you know, 34 00:01:42,680 --> 00:01:46,880 Speaker 1: general demise. Do you want to feed the hungry? Don't you? Um? 35 00:01:47,080 --> 00:01:52,480 Speaker 1: Of course we do can recycling And about fifteen minutes, 36 00:01:52,520 --> 00:01:55,560 Speaker 1: the key word for some inflation bonus money is coming 37 00:01:55,600 --> 00:01:58,400 Speaker 1: your way. Stand by for that word and the instructions 38 00:01:58,400 --> 00:02:03,880 Speaker 1: that follow. Came to our attention that LA magazine, which 39 00:02:03,880 --> 00:02:06,520 Speaker 1: I don't read and I didn't know still existed. Up 40 00:02:08,800 --> 00:02:14,120 Speaker 1: did Eric Garcetti's exit interview by Mayor Roshan in his 41 00:02:14,200 --> 00:02:17,760 Speaker 1: last major interview from city Hall. LA's mayor gets candid 42 00:02:17,840 --> 00:02:21,320 Speaker 1: on crime, race, the city council scandal, and the highs 43 00:02:21,320 --> 00:02:24,600 Speaker 1: and lows of his nine year tenure. Like we said, 44 00:02:24,639 --> 00:02:29,360 Speaker 1: it is mostly a tongue bath. At the beginning, peeled 45 00:02:29,360 --> 00:02:31,520 Speaker 1: back the veils of time and return with us to 46 00:02:31,600 --> 00:02:35,360 Speaker 1: that giddy, carefree era known as twenty thirteen. Obama was 47 00:02:35,360 --> 00:02:38,440 Speaker 1: in the White House. Haraldo Rivera was posting topless selfies? 48 00:02:38,880 --> 00:02:41,520 Speaker 1: Was he? What a weird opening to the paragraph. Kim 49 00:02:41,600 --> 00:02:44,880 Speaker 1: Kardashian and Kanye West were getting engaged, while Bruce and 50 00:02:44,960 --> 00:02:48,400 Speaker 1: Chris Jenner were getting divorced. Everybody else was playing candy 51 00:02:48,440 --> 00:02:52,840 Speaker 1: crush everybody, And in front of city Hall forty two 52 00:02:52,919 --> 00:02:54,679 Speaker 1: year old Eric Garcett he was being sworn into his 53 00:02:54,760 --> 00:02:58,520 Speaker 1: Los Angeles new mayor, the youngest in his century. Then 54 00:02:58,560 --> 00:03:00,320 Speaker 1: it goes on to say, fast forward to a gate, 55 00:03:00,480 --> 00:03:04,800 Speaker 1: and here's Garcetti, now a boyish fifty one, well comfortably 56 00:03:04,840 --> 00:03:07,760 Speaker 1: installed in a chair in his City Hall office, ready 57 00:03:07,800 --> 00:03:10,520 Speaker 1: for a free wheeling two hour evaluation of his legacy 58 00:03:10,760 --> 00:03:15,120 Speaker 1: and his tumultuous career. What's weird about this is the 59 00:03:15,120 --> 00:03:18,080 Speaker 1: next sentence. Before we begin, he shows me a clock 60 00:03:18,320 --> 00:03:21,880 Speaker 1: gifted to him by a friend that counts down the hours, minutes, 61 00:03:21,919 --> 00:03:25,960 Speaker 1: and milliseconds until his mayoralty draws to a close by 62 00:03:25,960 --> 00:03:27,560 Speaker 1: the way. For the record, and this is not in 63 00:03:27,600 --> 00:03:30,200 Speaker 1: the article. I's telling people this, December eleventh is a 64 00:03:30,280 --> 00:03:33,560 Speaker 1: day we get rid of this clown. Finally. Why I 65 00:03:33,639 --> 00:03:35,760 Speaker 1: brought that up is because later on in the interview, 66 00:03:36,400 --> 00:03:39,240 Speaker 1: he's basically asked, are you anxious to leave considering all 67 00:03:39,240 --> 00:03:43,200 Speaker 1: it's going on? And oh no, no, I'm very well 68 00:03:43,320 --> 00:03:46,080 Speaker 1: centered here. You know, I'm glad to be here, but 69 00:03:46,160 --> 00:03:49,200 Speaker 1: maybe glad to go to This is why I call 70 00:03:49,280 --> 00:03:51,080 Speaker 1: him one of the biggest fakes I have ever seen 71 00:03:51,120 --> 00:03:53,600 Speaker 1: in my life. And it's clear just from reading these 72 00:03:53,600 --> 00:03:56,880 Speaker 1: words he is a phony and a liar. Yeah here 73 00:03:56,960 --> 00:04:00,520 Speaker 1: he is. Yeah. He gives these lengthy, bloated nie answers 74 00:04:01,080 --> 00:04:04,280 Speaker 1: to most everything, and much of him filled with lies. 75 00:04:04,920 --> 00:04:07,600 Speaker 1: You know, he is worked up to the hilt about 76 00:04:07,600 --> 00:04:11,000 Speaker 1: getting this ambassadorship because if he leaves office in December 77 00:04:11,040 --> 00:04:16,880 Speaker 1: and there's nothing the shame and embarrassment he's gonna feel. Wow, 78 00:04:16,880 --> 00:04:19,200 Speaker 1: because that's how he is. He's got mommy and Daddy 79 00:04:19,279 --> 00:04:23,040 Speaker 1: hiring a lobbyist. Yeah, they've spent the big bucks on 80 00:04:23,200 --> 00:04:25,440 Speaker 1: trying to you know, by the way, I don't think 81 00:04:25,440 --> 00:04:27,599 Speaker 1: he has any chance because no, you're about to have 82 00:04:27,600 --> 00:04:30,159 Speaker 1: an election. The Senate may turn over to the Republicans 83 00:04:30,520 --> 00:04:34,000 Speaker 1: and then he's definitely dead if it does. There's no 84 00:04:34,040 --> 00:04:36,560 Speaker 1: way they're going to bother with his nomination. But and 85 00:04:36,720 --> 00:04:38,479 Speaker 1: it's been out there for a year and a half? 86 00:04:39,800 --> 00:04:43,520 Speaker 1: Has it been? That? Was it July twenty one? Ye? 87 00:04:44,000 --> 00:04:46,760 Speaker 1: Oh my god, I forgot that. Yeah, so you know, 88 00:04:46,839 --> 00:04:48,599 Speaker 1: a year and a half, he's sitting there waiting for 89 00:04:48,640 --> 00:04:52,600 Speaker 1: the phone to ring and if they don't say yes, 90 00:04:52,640 --> 00:04:54,719 Speaker 1: and a year and a half they're never saying yes. 91 00:04:55,880 --> 00:04:58,880 Speaker 1: It's because the story of him and Rick Jacobs is 92 00:04:58,880 --> 00:05:02,960 Speaker 1: really gross and great bait. So it's it makes people 93 00:05:03,000 --> 00:05:06,080 Speaker 1: feel uncomfortable. Yeah, there was a lot of that going on. 94 00:05:06,360 --> 00:05:10,720 Speaker 1: By the way, this mayor Roshan, I don't know how 95 00:05:10,720 --> 00:05:13,840 Speaker 1: to pronounce his last name. I'm going through just this 96 00:05:13,920 --> 00:05:18,160 Speaker 1: first page, which is six paragraphs, and I don't see 97 00:05:18,800 --> 00:05:23,000 Speaker 1: anything about the homeless. Oh, it gets there, but it 98 00:05:23,040 --> 00:05:25,320 Speaker 1: gets there. But that's all about well because it's the 99 00:05:25,320 --> 00:05:28,320 Speaker 1: hottest news. It's about the city Hall racial council scandal. 100 00:05:28,440 --> 00:05:32,640 Speaker 1: Except the most important thing to all the voters, is 101 00:05:32,680 --> 00:05:36,440 Speaker 1: the homeless situation. Ninety four percent of the public considers 102 00:05:36,480 --> 00:05:40,159 Speaker 1: it a serious or very serious issue ninety four percent. 103 00:05:40,520 --> 00:05:46,280 Speaker 1: And instead the issues he lists are racial addrest, sex scandals, 104 00:05:46,720 --> 00:05:49,600 Speaker 1: brawls with the police union, and Black Lives Matter activists, 105 00:05:50,320 --> 00:05:53,000 Speaker 1: the one in a century pandemic that shut down the city. 106 00:05:54,160 --> 00:05:58,280 Speaker 1: Nothing about homeless, nothing about all the vicious, horrible crimes, 107 00:05:58,680 --> 00:06:01,240 Speaker 1: some of which came from the homeless. This guy Roshan 108 00:06:01,960 --> 00:06:06,919 Speaker 1: is just as delusional as Garcetti. Well, here's the back 109 00:06:06,960 --> 00:06:10,800 Speaker 1: door pathetic question. He asked along those lines, to borrow 110 00:06:10,839 --> 00:06:13,080 Speaker 1: the old Reagan question. Do you think the city is 111 00:06:13,120 --> 00:06:15,600 Speaker 1: safer and more habitable now than it was when you 112 00:06:15,680 --> 00:06:19,240 Speaker 1: got here? So that's kind of the question you're wondering. Well, 113 00:06:19,240 --> 00:06:21,800 Speaker 1: that's a non question. Oh, and of course it's a 114 00:06:21,839 --> 00:06:24,320 Speaker 1: softball because the answer, oh, in some ways no, and 115 00:06:24,320 --> 00:06:27,279 Speaker 1: in some ways absolutely. But I think the honest answer 116 00:06:27,279 --> 00:06:29,440 Speaker 1: for all of us is this, it's tougher to buy 117 00:06:29,480 --> 00:06:33,480 Speaker 1: a home. Wow, that's Garcetti's answer. And by the way, 118 00:06:33,520 --> 00:06:35,800 Speaker 1: when he's asked about that in the Homeless issue, he 119 00:06:35,880 --> 00:06:40,080 Speaker 1: just says, it's all about housing, housing, housing, which it's not. 120 00:06:40,120 --> 00:06:43,520 Speaker 1: No it's not. It's about an influx of drug addicts 121 00:06:43,520 --> 00:06:46,160 Speaker 1: and mental patients coming from the other forty nine states 122 00:06:46,400 --> 00:06:49,920 Speaker 1: and landing here because we're one of those cities that 123 00:06:49,960 --> 00:06:54,120 Speaker 1: allow hasn't anything goes there's no rules, there's no laws enforced. 124 00:06:54,480 --> 00:07:00,400 Speaker 1: No behavior is too aberrant for Los Angeles, He's asked. 125 00:07:00,440 --> 00:07:03,120 Speaker 1: According to pole's a sizable majority of Angelino So I'm 126 00:07:03,160 --> 00:07:05,120 Speaker 1: not feeling very happy about the city where it's going. 127 00:07:05,400 --> 00:07:07,640 Speaker 1: Why do you think that is? Could you have done something? 128 00:07:08,200 --> 00:07:11,280 Speaker 1: You know what he did? He blamed the pandemic. Oh, 129 00:07:11,320 --> 00:07:13,960 Speaker 1: we're coming off of trauma. The state didn't touch a 130 00:07:13,960 --> 00:07:15,800 Speaker 1: lot of stuff during the pandemic, so the city got 131 00:07:15,880 --> 00:07:19,120 Speaker 1: very dirty. Wait, the homelessness crisis continues. The city got 132 00:07:19,160 --> 00:07:22,560 Speaker 1: dirty because the state didn't do much. That's how we 133 00:07:22,600 --> 00:07:25,560 Speaker 1: put it. Yet, it's the city's responsibility to clean the city. 134 00:07:25,600 --> 00:07:28,120 Speaker 1: The state doesn't clean the city. We have a sanitation 135 00:07:28,160 --> 00:07:30,520 Speaker 1: department that should be their job to certainly clean up 136 00:07:30,520 --> 00:07:33,560 Speaker 1: the garbage. And nobody in the sanitation department was in 137 00:07:33,640 --> 00:07:37,600 Speaker 1: danger of COVID by cleaning up garbage. He now thinks 138 00:07:37,640 --> 00:07:43,040 Speaker 1: the homelessness curve is finally flattened. It has not my diagnosis. 139 00:07:43,040 --> 00:07:48,080 Speaker 1: My diagnosis is housing, housing, housings. He's an insane person, 140 00:07:48,480 --> 00:07:51,600 Speaker 1: That's what I said. You know, he's he's very frustrating 141 00:07:51,680 --> 00:07:54,760 Speaker 1: to I can't imagine how frustrating he is if you're 142 00:07:54,800 --> 00:07:57,040 Speaker 1: a real journalist. I don't know who there's my erosion is, 143 00:07:57,080 --> 00:08:01,000 Speaker 1: but this article is an abortion. Well, the next question 144 00:08:01,560 --> 00:08:04,200 Speaker 1: brings up a guest we had on the show. Remember 145 00:08:04,200 --> 00:08:07,760 Speaker 1: Sam Canotas who wrote a long story for LA magazine. 146 00:08:07,800 --> 00:08:09,960 Speaker 1: He was on our show like a month ago about 147 00:08:09,960 --> 00:08:12,920 Speaker 1: the homeless problem and how what LA is doing is 148 00:08:12,960 --> 00:08:15,680 Speaker 1: being copied around the country with its failed policy of 149 00:08:15,680 --> 00:08:19,560 Speaker 1: housing first. So we asked them the homeless crisis is 150 00:08:19,600 --> 00:08:22,760 Speaker 1: not just a housing problem, it reflects a growing drug problem. 151 00:08:22,800 --> 00:08:25,800 Speaker 1: He concluded that simply supplying housing to people without addressing 152 00:08:25,840 --> 00:08:28,480 Speaker 1: the broader issues is doomed to failure. Well, the yoga 153 00:08:28,520 --> 00:08:31,400 Speaker 1: pant's answer is I've had this conversation a thousand times. 154 00:08:31,400 --> 00:08:33,120 Speaker 1: It is drugs and mental health? Where is there a 155 00:08:33,200 --> 00:08:37,160 Speaker 1: lack of housing? Lutes both, right, but that's not how 156 00:08:37,160 --> 00:08:40,520 Speaker 1: you've treated. It's not both. Because if you're not insane 157 00:08:40,600 --> 00:08:44,200 Speaker 1: and on drugs, then you go get a job and 158 00:08:44,240 --> 00:08:47,080 Speaker 1: you rent an apartment somewhere you could afford it. You 159 00:08:47,120 --> 00:08:49,880 Speaker 1: don't ask the government to build you an apartment. Nobody 160 00:08:49,920 --> 00:08:53,000 Speaker 1: does that. Do you know anyone in your whole life 161 00:08:53,240 --> 00:08:55,880 Speaker 1: that ever went to the government and said, build me 162 00:08:55,960 --> 00:09:02,280 Speaker 1: a home. Nobody does that. Drug addicts and mental patients 163 00:09:02,320 --> 00:09:04,840 Speaker 1: do that. They feel like they're entitled. Well, the city 164 00:09:04,880 --> 00:09:09,160 Speaker 1: ought to provide some housing for me. No, no city 165 00:09:09,240 --> 00:09:12,240 Speaker 1: does that anywhere in the world. You'll have to go work. 166 00:09:15,200 --> 00:09:18,720 Speaker 1: He's crazy. He's as nutty as the people live in 167 00:09:18,720 --> 00:09:21,480 Speaker 1: the streets. When we come back, another part of the 168 00:09:21,480 --> 00:09:24,000 Speaker 1: interview that drives you crazy, we'll play it, we'll talk 169 00:09:24,040 --> 00:09:26,360 Speaker 1: about it, and we'll play a piece of audio from 170 00:09:26,360 --> 00:09:30,559 Speaker 1: twenty twenty along the lines of his denial in this interview. 171 00:09:31,120 --> 00:09:34,840 Speaker 1: This is Mayor Eric Garcetti yoga pants. We call him 172 00:09:34,920 --> 00:09:38,720 Speaker 1: his exit interview with LA magazine. Right when we come back, though, 173 00:09:38,720 --> 00:09:41,480 Speaker 1: it'll be a chance for some money, the inflation bonus 174 00:09:41,520 --> 00:09:43,920 Speaker 1: cash money is up for grabs with the keyword that 175 00:09:43,960 --> 00:09:47,120 Speaker 1: you need to possibly win. John and ken KF I 176 00:09:47,240 --> 00:09:50,400 Speaker 1: am six forty live everywhere on the iHeartRadio app. All right, 177 00:09:50,400 --> 00:09:53,880 Speaker 1: so we've been looking at this exit interview that was 178 00:09:53,920 --> 00:09:58,880 Speaker 1: conducted by Los Angeles magazine with yoga pants Mayor Eric Garcetti. 179 00:09:59,480 --> 00:10:02,720 Speaker 1: It is a bundle of crap, it really is. They 180 00:10:02,800 --> 00:10:06,319 Speaker 1: let him just spout on about his legacy and oh yeah, 181 00:10:06,520 --> 00:10:09,280 Speaker 1: difficulties with the job and getting through the pandemic, and 182 00:10:09,320 --> 00:10:11,360 Speaker 1: of course they asked him about the city Hall scandal. 183 00:10:11,800 --> 00:10:14,240 Speaker 1: But the part we want to focus on now takes 184 00:10:14,320 --> 00:10:16,880 Speaker 1: us back to twenty twenty. Remember what was going on 185 00:10:16,920 --> 00:10:19,079 Speaker 1: back in twenty twenty with of course, they defund the 186 00:10:19,120 --> 00:10:21,920 Speaker 1: police movement after the death of George Floyd, and they 187 00:10:21,960 --> 00:10:26,280 Speaker 1: started chasing after Garcetti because you know, we let the 188 00:10:26,320 --> 00:10:29,360 Speaker 1: insanes kind of run the asylum here where they decided 189 00:10:29,400 --> 00:10:32,120 Speaker 1: that LA is just as responsible for killing people as 190 00:10:32,200 --> 00:10:34,920 Speaker 1: any other police department, and you've got to defund the police. 191 00:10:34,920 --> 00:10:37,000 Speaker 1: And they chased down officials and marched in the streets, 192 00:10:37,160 --> 00:10:39,079 Speaker 1: and the police chief was taking a knee, and in 193 00:10:39,080 --> 00:10:41,640 Speaker 1: Garcetti was taking a knee. So they were all doing 194 00:10:41,679 --> 00:10:44,800 Speaker 1: what politicians do, right, they were pandering. Well, you know, 195 00:10:44,800 --> 00:10:48,160 Speaker 1: it was really awful because you know, the Fairfax District 196 00:10:48,520 --> 00:10:51,600 Speaker 1: filled with eighty eight businesses that burned to the ground, 197 00:10:51,600 --> 00:10:54,880 Speaker 1: many of them Jewish businesses. And I'm surprised that wasn't 198 00:10:54,960 --> 00:10:58,680 Speaker 1: jumped on as a point of attack, because that was 199 00:10:58,720 --> 00:11:01,920 Speaker 1: a lot of Jewish owned business is that burned, and 200 00:11:02,000 --> 00:11:06,320 Speaker 1: you wonder if that was by design or not. And Garcetti, 201 00:11:06,640 --> 00:11:09,080 Speaker 1: you turn on the TV and you want to see 202 00:11:09,120 --> 00:11:12,720 Speaker 1: the mayor and the police chief commiserating with the business 203 00:11:12,720 --> 00:11:17,680 Speaker 1: owners and protecting the business owners right and fighting off 204 00:11:17,720 --> 00:11:21,080 Speaker 1: the hordes that were destroying and burning the buildings, and 205 00:11:21,200 --> 00:11:23,280 Speaker 1: instead I see the two of them on their knees 206 00:11:24,760 --> 00:11:29,800 Speaker 1: in some kind of religious genuflection towards the with the protesters, 207 00:11:29,840 --> 00:11:34,880 Speaker 1: this new cult that suddenly sprung up. It was very sick. 208 00:11:35,559 --> 00:11:37,599 Speaker 1: So he ends up at the First A and E 209 00:11:37,840 --> 00:11:43,400 Speaker 1: Church to talk about the whole defund the police, black 210 00:11:43,440 --> 00:11:47,880 Speaker 1: Lives Matter movement and all of that, and he made 211 00:11:47,880 --> 00:11:51,960 Speaker 1: a statement a comment as part of his speech there, 212 00:11:52,559 --> 00:11:57,880 Speaker 1: and the LAPD Union, the Police Protective League went crazy 213 00:11:57,920 --> 00:12:01,040 Speaker 1: over it because we have a small clip of part 214 00:12:01,080 --> 00:12:04,000 Speaker 1: of what he said. It starts someplace and we say 215 00:12:04,080 --> 00:12:06,160 Speaker 1: we are going to be who we want to be, 216 00:12:06,280 --> 00:12:09,040 Speaker 1: or we're going to continue being the killers that we are. 217 00:12:10,400 --> 00:12:14,160 Speaker 1: So that was interpreted to mean he's talking about the police, right, 218 00:12:14,160 --> 00:12:16,640 Speaker 1: He's explaining in this article, No, I was just talking 219 00:12:16,640 --> 00:12:20,800 Speaker 1: about all of us collectively. But he's lying because the 220 00:12:20,840 --> 00:12:26,160 Speaker 1: whole protest was about the police killing George Floyd. They 221 00:12:26,160 --> 00:12:30,840 Speaker 1: were Garcetti and Michael Moore were on their knees to 222 00:12:30,960 --> 00:12:34,400 Speaker 1: show their penance for all the terrible things that the 223 00:12:34,480 --> 00:12:41,600 Speaker 1: police had done the black citizens. Right, So killers means 224 00:12:41,800 --> 00:12:44,880 Speaker 1: the police and you heard that edge in his wife. 225 00:12:46,320 --> 00:12:49,960 Speaker 1: He didn't mean all of us, because all of us 226 00:12:50,000 --> 00:12:52,320 Speaker 1: didn't kill anybody. No, in the context of this is 227 00:12:52,320 --> 00:12:54,760 Speaker 1: that the police officers in Minneapolis did kill a black man. 228 00:12:55,520 --> 00:12:59,120 Speaker 1: One hundred percent of the story was police officers killing 229 00:12:59,120 --> 00:13:01,760 Speaker 1: a black man. That was it. There's the context. So 230 00:13:01,840 --> 00:13:03,160 Speaker 1: to say, oh, we're going to continue to be the 231 00:13:03,240 --> 00:13:05,000 Speaker 1: killers that we are, he's referring to the police, and 232 00:13:05,000 --> 00:13:07,000 Speaker 1: they're not just be LAPD. It must be all police. 233 00:13:08,040 --> 00:13:10,600 Speaker 1: Well he was. He was kneeling here in Los Angeles, 234 00:13:10,600 --> 00:13:12,720 Speaker 1: the mayor of Los Angeles, as far as I'm concerned. 235 00:13:12,800 --> 00:13:15,520 Speaker 1: He was talking about LAPD cops and all the cops 236 00:13:15,600 --> 00:13:18,480 Speaker 1: knew it, and gar said he knows it too. But 237 00:13:18,559 --> 00:13:20,920 Speaker 1: it was one of those things that stuck to him. 238 00:13:21,280 --> 00:13:23,960 Speaker 1: So now he's still his dying day, he's gonna lie 239 00:13:24,080 --> 00:13:28,320 Speaker 1: and say no, because no one's gonna believe his apology anyway, 240 00:13:28,559 --> 00:13:30,880 Speaker 1: because that's what he meant to say, because that's how 241 00:13:30,920 --> 00:13:36,000 Speaker 1: he feels. He does look at the police's killers. He 242 00:13:36,080 --> 00:13:38,760 Speaker 1: does because he's well, he's a panderer. I don't think 243 00:13:38,760 --> 00:13:41,640 Speaker 1: he has any real convictions, John, I don't think he does. 244 00:13:42,559 --> 00:13:44,400 Speaker 1: I think he's just looking for the next step up 245 00:13:44,440 --> 00:13:46,079 Speaker 1: the ladder and says what he needs to say at 246 00:13:46,080 --> 00:13:48,280 Speaker 1: the moment. You talked to him today and he'd be like, yeah, 247 00:13:48,280 --> 00:13:51,080 Speaker 1: we probably need more police. You know, the crime has 248 00:13:51,120 --> 00:13:53,040 Speaker 1: ticked up a bit, and he cut one hundred and 249 00:13:53,080 --> 00:14:00,000 Speaker 1: fifty million dollars out of the budget. Police retirements went crazy. 250 00:13:59,800 --> 00:14:03,680 Speaker 1: The number of people in the recruitment classes now are 251 00:14:03,840 --> 00:14:06,679 Speaker 1: getting close to zero. I think Rick Caruso said the 252 00:14:06,720 --> 00:14:11,920 Speaker 1: last recruitment class was about twenty three people. So he's 253 00:14:12,000 --> 00:14:15,360 Speaker 1: really destroyed the police department. He does not allow the 254 00:14:15,360 --> 00:14:17,880 Speaker 1: police to do their jobs, which is why you have 255 00:14:18,000 --> 00:14:20,920 Speaker 1: forty thousand crazy people running around committing all kinds of 256 00:14:20,960 --> 00:14:25,360 Speaker 1: crimes right up to murder. I can't imagine a bigger 257 00:14:25,400 --> 00:14:28,880 Speaker 1: disaster as mayor, I really can't. I can't think of 258 00:14:28,880 --> 00:14:30,960 Speaker 1: a mayor that was a bigger disaster in my life. 259 00:14:32,000 --> 00:14:34,760 Speaker 1: So here comes another great part of the interview. It's 260 00:14:34,800 --> 00:14:38,920 Speaker 1: about this former top aide he had named Rick Jacobs. 261 00:14:38,920 --> 00:14:42,440 Speaker 1: In the whole sexual harassment controversy. We find out that 262 00:14:42,480 --> 00:14:47,040 Speaker 1: Garsetti himself is a survivor of sex harassment. Well, I 263 00:14:47,080 --> 00:14:50,040 Speaker 1: don't want to hear that story. Yes, I testified in 264 00:14:50,080 --> 00:14:52,760 Speaker 1: Congress in my position as president of the National Student 265 00:14:52,800 --> 00:14:56,760 Speaker 1: Coalition Against Harassment for the first Violence Against Women Act? 266 00:14:57,280 --> 00:15:00,200 Speaker 1: Who harassed you? I'd rather not talk about that, but 267 00:15:00,280 --> 00:15:02,960 Speaker 1: it led me to the work that I did. I 268 00:15:02,960 --> 00:15:04,560 Speaker 1: don't know. I don't believe. First of all, I don't 269 00:15:04,560 --> 00:15:07,280 Speaker 1: believe it. You don't believe that it's another pander? Yeah. 270 00:15:07,480 --> 00:15:11,920 Speaker 1: Second of all, since he's he's trying to help women 271 00:15:11,920 --> 00:15:14,680 Speaker 1: who are being harassed, I'm assuming it wasn't a woman 272 00:15:14,720 --> 00:15:19,400 Speaker 1: who harassed him, but maybe a man, one of his teachers. 273 00:15:19,840 --> 00:15:24,520 Speaker 1: I don't know it was younger. Then it's clear, right, yeah, 274 00:15:24,680 --> 00:15:28,560 Speaker 1: I us his first time ever in Congress is before 275 00:15:28,600 --> 00:15:30,280 Speaker 1: he probably even got so he was one of these 276 00:15:30,280 --> 00:15:34,040 Speaker 1: annoying high school kids who went to Congress to testify 277 00:15:34,040 --> 00:15:36,400 Speaker 1: about some social issue. I have to look that up. 278 00:15:36,440 --> 00:15:37,680 Speaker 1: I don't know what ear he did that, Whether it 279 00:15:37,680 --> 00:15:39,760 Speaker 1: was high school or college or even if he did that. 280 00:15:41,080 --> 00:15:43,800 Speaker 1: So he also says about the Rick Jacobs things, kind 281 00:15:43,840 --> 00:15:46,400 Speaker 1: of like, well, there's an assumption your question that are 282 00:15:46,400 --> 00:15:49,320 Speaker 1: all the things he's been accused of actually happened. You see, 283 00:15:49,320 --> 00:15:52,840 Speaker 1: we still have this putting up the wall that all 284 00:15:52,920 --> 00:15:55,040 Speaker 1: these people that have told their stories of being sexually 285 00:15:55,120 --> 00:15:58,200 Speaker 1: or asked by Rick Jacobs maybe making it up or exaggerating. 286 00:15:58,680 --> 00:16:02,920 Speaker 1: He's still running that line. And then you know he's asked, well, 287 00:16:03,480 --> 00:16:05,640 Speaker 1: you don't talk to Rick Jacobs anymore. We haven't talked 288 00:16:05,680 --> 00:16:08,120 Speaker 1: since November of twenty twenty. Well why is that if 289 00:16:08,120 --> 00:16:09,960 Speaker 1: he didn't do anything. Well, we're going to be in 290 00:16:10,040 --> 00:16:13,760 Speaker 1: a court case. It's legal advice. We shouldn't have those conversations. 291 00:16:14,680 --> 00:16:16,320 Speaker 1: But you two were seated across from each other on 292 00:16:16,360 --> 00:16:20,040 Speaker 1: a plane recently. Well the flight didn't last very long. Wow. 293 00:16:21,520 --> 00:16:25,600 Speaker 1: And again he repeats the story that he never witnessed 294 00:16:25,600 --> 00:16:27,880 Speaker 1: nor heard about any of this stuff, which is also 295 00:16:28,040 --> 00:16:31,720 Speaker 1: laughably unbelievable. Well, because they don't. They don't want to 296 00:16:31,760 --> 00:16:36,480 Speaker 1: be everywhere in that city Hall. So everybody knew what 297 00:16:36,600 --> 00:16:39,520 Speaker 1: Jacobs was about. Yes, and there's a reason he lies. 298 00:16:39,920 --> 00:16:43,000 Speaker 1: He doesn't want to be publicly culpable. It will destroy 299 00:16:43,040 --> 00:16:45,760 Speaker 1: what's left of his career. Jacobs isn't going to admit 300 00:16:45,800 --> 00:16:47,720 Speaker 1: to it because he's going to have to pay a 301 00:16:47,840 --> 00:16:51,560 Speaker 1: huge settlement in a lawsuit if he if he's found liable. 302 00:16:52,720 --> 00:16:58,200 Speaker 1: I mean, Garcetti's getting sued too, So they're all liable. 303 00:16:58,680 --> 00:17:02,640 Speaker 1: They're they're not going to admit anything ever. You know, 304 00:17:02,760 --> 00:17:05,320 Speaker 1: if if they're found liable, they're going to appeal it, 305 00:17:05,960 --> 00:17:08,520 Speaker 1: and then they'll appeal it again, and then they'll deny 306 00:17:08,560 --> 00:17:12,399 Speaker 1: it again. Oh my god. He even is asked about, well, 307 00:17:12,440 --> 00:17:16,320 Speaker 1: you worked on the Biden for President campaign, and when 308 00:17:16,359 --> 00:17:19,439 Speaker 1: Biden became president, everybody thought you'd get a plumb cabinet position. 309 00:17:19,480 --> 00:17:22,160 Speaker 1: You didn't. Well, I didn't want to leave the city 310 00:17:22,200 --> 00:17:25,880 Speaker 1: during the pandemic. People were dying. That's when the appointment 311 00:17:25,880 --> 00:17:27,600 Speaker 1: would have happened. If I moved forward. I didn't work 312 00:17:27,600 --> 00:17:29,199 Speaker 1: for Biden to get a new job. I had a 313 00:17:29,200 --> 00:17:31,959 Speaker 1: great job here. No, the Senate refuses to take up 314 00:17:32,000 --> 00:17:35,080 Speaker 1: a vote. No, he's talking. He's talking about before that. 315 00:17:35,280 --> 00:17:38,760 Speaker 1: He's talking about Remember Booty Judge got Secretary of Transportation 316 00:17:38,840 --> 00:17:42,480 Speaker 1: and yet he didn't. That was the first miss. He's lying. 317 00:17:42,640 --> 00:17:44,639 Speaker 1: The India thing came later, and that was just a 318 00:17:44,680 --> 00:17:47,160 Speaker 1: bone to make him feel like he's not completely forgotten 319 00:17:47,160 --> 00:17:51,320 Speaker 1: because he's a goof. Because even Biden in his adult 320 00:17:51,359 --> 00:17:55,480 Speaker 1: state realizes Garcetti is not Can you imagine not being 321 00:17:55,520 --> 00:18:00,280 Speaker 1: cabinet material in the Biden administration? Think about out the 322 00:18:00,320 --> 00:18:04,280 Speaker 1: clowns in the Biden administration and Garcetti wasn't good enough 323 00:18:04,480 --> 00:18:06,680 Speaker 1: for that crew. Oh my god, listen to this one. 324 00:18:07,040 --> 00:18:09,680 Speaker 1: It must irgue that your nomination has been held up. 325 00:18:10,160 --> 00:18:11,960 Speaker 1: Oh no, at this point, it's been a gift. This 326 00:18:12,000 --> 00:18:14,000 Speaker 1: is what I mean by a chronic liar. Things that 327 00:18:14,080 --> 00:18:16,040 Speaker 1: I never would have been here for, like the opening 328 00:18:16,040 --> 00:18:21,199 Speaker 1: of the six Street Bridge and the Crenshaw line. But 329 00:18:21,480 --> 00:18:24,959 Speaker 1: this is what chronic liars do. They will rationalize anything 330 00:18:25,000 --> 00:18:27,800 Speaker 1: and everything and spend anything and everything. And how many 331 00:18:27,840 --> 00:18:30,160 Speaker 1: times did he did? He mention the Olympics as being 332 00:18:30,160 --> 00:18:33,240 Speaker 1: his great achievement? And there isn't a soul who cares. 333 00:18:33,359 --> 00:18:36,200 Speaker 1: Who cares what happens if you don't get the ambassadorship. 334 00:18:36,480 --> 00:18:39,120 Speaker 1: I'm optimistic. I think it will happen. I'm a grounded 335 00:18:39,160 --> 00:18:41,560 Speaker 1: and happy individual. That's the opposite of that. Keep telling 336 00:18:41,560 --> 00:18:45,480 Speaker 1: yourself you are about to explode. I had big feeling 337 00:18:45,520 --> 00:18:47,400 Speaker 1: that something big is going to happen with this man. 338 00:18:47,640 --> 00:18:52,640 Speaker 1: Something's ticking. That's right, the ticking dime Bob. And then 339 00:18:52,640 --> 00:18:55,840 Speaker 1: in the end he doesn't really endorse abassad Caruso, not 340 00:18:55,880 --> 00:18:58,320 Speaker 1: that I care, but he just says good things about 341 00:18:58,320 --> 00:19:01,160 Speaker 1: both of them. Is either one asking for his endorse 342 00:19:01,680 --> 00:19:07,120 Speaker 1: might be the case care We're coming up, Johnny ken 343 00:19:07,480 --> 00:19:09,760 Speaker 1: If I am six forty live everywhere in the iHeartRadio 344 00:19:09,760 --> 00:19:13,200 Speaker 1: ASP in New York. Some guy hijacked a bus with 345 00:19:13,320 --> 00:19:16,280 Speaker 1: twenty five passengers in it. Oh no, he was sitting 346 00:19:16,320 --> 00:19:19,240 Speaker 1: behind the bus driver. The driver opens the door and 347 00:19:19,359 --> 00:19:22,640 Speaker 1: lets the passengers go. They all run out, and then 348 00:19:22,640 --> 00:19:26,200 Speaker 1: he drives another mile. And then the driver jumps out 349 00:19:26,200 --> 00:19:29,320 Speaker 1: a window and lets the bus keep going down the 350 00:19:29,400 --> 00:19:33,040 Speaker 1: road with only throwing the hijacker inside, and the thing 351 00:19:33,080 --> 00:19:38,080 Speaker 1: crashes into a utility pole. There you go, just another 352 00:19:38,160 --> 00:19:41,399 Speaker 1: day in crazy land. I know, I know, crazy guy 353 00:19:41,080 --> 00:19:45,159 Speaker 1: comes on a bus. Oh and one more thing. So 354 00:19:45,320 --> 00:19:50,359 Speaker 1: we're talking about the the writer who gave Garcettia a 355 00:19:50,400 --> 00:19:55,280 Speaker 1: tongue bath in the LA magazine. Yeah, Rotion he's the 356 00:19:55,359 --> 00:19:58,840 Speaker 1: editor in chief of the magazine. Now, he's been magazines 357 00:19:59,160 --> 00:20:03,639 Speaker 1: all his life. He uh. He started Radar magazine the 358 00:20:03,680 --> 00:20:07,280 Speaker 1: Gossip site years ago. You know, one of his original 359 00:20:07,320 --> 00:20:19,200 Speaker 1: big investors, Jeffrey Epstein. Oh small World, Yeah World, Coming 360 00:20:19,240 --> 00:20:22,280 Speaker 1: up after four o'clock. We're gonna have the yes and 361 00:20:22,320 --> 00:20:25,400 Speaker 1: the no. We've been trying hard to get everybody on 362 00:20:25,480 --> 00:20:27,880 Speaker 1: yes and no on the ballot propositions. There were seven 363 00:20:27,960 --> 00:20:31,320 Speaker 1: of them. This is Proposition thirty one. It's kind of 364 00:20:31,320 --> 00:20:35,480 Speaker 1: a weird one because the legislature back in twenty twenty 365 00:20:37,080 --> 00:20:40,119 Speaker 1: signed past the bill and Gavin Uson have approved it. It 366 00:20:40,040 --> 00:20:41,720 Speaker 1: It would be in the sale of candy and fruit 367 00:20:41,760 --> 00:20:45,800 Speaker 1: flavored tobacco products, but the tobacco company spent millions and 368 00:20:45,920 --> 00:20:49,840 Speaker 1: launched a referendum process against the law, which put it 369 00:20:49,880 --> 00:20:53,600 Speaker 1: on hold. That's what happens when you can collect signatures 370 00:20:53,640 --> 00:20:56,359 Speaker 1: fast enough, you can get to you know, the courts 371 00:20:56,400 --> 00:20:58,760 Speaker 1: to kind of say, well, we're gonna let the voters decide, 372 00:20:58,800 --> 00:21:01,479 Speaker 1: So we will have the yes side at four oh 373 00:21:01,600 --> 00:21:06,120 Speaker 1: five and the no side right after that. Proposition thirty one. 374 00:21:07,080 --> 00:21:10,960 Speaker 1: Here on the John and Ken Show. Well, there's still 375 00:21:11,000 --> 00:21:14,359 Speaker 1: a lot of debate over the debate, and this would 376 00:21:14,400 --> 00:21:18,680 Speaker 1: be John Fetterman, the Lieutenant governor of Pennsylvania who was 377 00:21:18,760 --> 00:21:20,960 Speaker 1: trying to move on to the United States Senate. His 378 00:21:21,000 --> 00:21:25,959 Speaker 1: opponent is the Republican nominee Memoit Oz doctor Oz from television. 379 00:21:27,640 --> 00:21:30,800 Speaker 1: A lot of insiders and the top Democrats are saying 380 00:21:31,440 --> 00:21:34,600 Speaker 1: he should not have debated. Anyone on his team who 381 00:21:34,600 --> 00:21:37,160 Speaker 1: agreed to a debate should be fired or never work again. 382 00:21:37,200 --> 00:21:39,800 Speaker 1: That debate may have tanked his campaign. According to a 383 00:21:39,880 --> 00:21:45,119 Speaker 1: veteran Democratic campaign strategy, see how they think. Try to 384 00:21:45,200 --> 00:21:49,880 Speaker 1: drill this into your head. All of you who worship politicians, 385 00:21:51,800 --> 00:21:57,840 Speaker 1: they wanted to cover up Fetterman stroke, and all I've 386 00:21:57,880 --> 00:22:01,960 Speaker 1: seen Democratic and Republican political consultants say the same thing. 387 00:22:02,320 --> 00:22:06,440 Speaker 1: They shouldn't have let him debate. In other words, your 388 00:22:06,520 --> 00:22:09,080 Speaker 1: job is to get the guy elected. Your job is 389 00:22:09,119 --> 00:22:11,560 Speaker 1: not to be honest with the public. Your job is 390 00:22:11,600 --> 00:22:14,639 Speaker 1: to hide his stroke and the effects of the stroke. 391 00:22:16,080 --> 00:22:20,040 Speaker 1: Both sides believe that. So when you hear these speeches 392 00:22:20,040 --> 00:22:23,639 Speaker 1: and you see these ads, it's all about fooling you, 393 00:22:23,680 --> 00:22:27,000 Speaker 1: it's all about manipulating you, it's all about dishonesty. They 394 00:22:27,040 --> 00:22:29,520 Speaker 1: actually think you've got no right to know how much 395 00:22:29,520 --> 00:22:32,920 Speaker 1: brain damage a candidate has after a major stroke, that 396 00:22:33,000 --> 00:22:35,640 Speaker 1: it should have been covered up, that it was political malpractice. 397 00:22:35,760 --> 00:22:39,560 Speaker 1: Is the term I heard political malpractice to let Fetterman 398 00:22:40,000 --> 00:22:43,680 Speaker 1: debate in public. What we might be looking at is 399 00:22:43,720 --> 00:22:45,480 Speaker 1: the old case of it's not the crime, it's the 400 00:22:45,520 --> 00:22:48,600 Speaker 1: cover up. People might be able to say, all right, well, 401 00:22:48,640 --> 00:22:52,440 Speaker 1: apparently there are two US Democratic senator is currently serving 402 00:22:52,480 --> 00:22:55,880 Speaker 1: who have recovered from strokes. But maybe the voters feel like, wow, 403 00:22:55,920 --> 00:22:58,840 Speaker 1: you hit this guy for so long, we didn't really understand, 404 00:22:58,920 --> 00:23:01,520 Speaker 1: you know, what position he's in. One strategist says they 405 00:23:01,520 --> 00:23:04,239 Speaker 1: should have had him do more events early on so 406 00:23:04,320 --> 00:23:07,040 Speaker 1: people could see and then learned six months later because 407 00:23:07,040 --> 00:23:09,120 Speaker 1: he had the stroke in May, that he has come 408 00:23:09,240 --> 00:23:12,520 Speaker 1: somewhat down the road. But to keep him from the 409 00:23:12,520 --> 00:23:14,640 Speaker 1: public for so long, and now there's their first long 410 00:23:14,680 --> 00:23:16,679 Speaker 1: look at him, they're like, oh my god. Yeah, all right, 411 00:23:16,720 --> 00:23:18,320 Speaker 1: so I had no idea was this bad? What else 412 00:23:18,359 --> 00:23:21,440 Speaker 1: are they covering up? They won't release medical records, and 413 00:23:21,720 --> 00:23:25,080 Speaker 1: somebody pointed out today, well, maybe he's had a second stroke. 414 00:23:25,640 --> 00:23:28,479 Speaker 1: How do we know. Why are they covering up the records? 415 00:23:28,480 --> 00:23:30,960 Speaker 1: There must be something bad. The same way they didn't 416 00:23:31,000 --> 00:23:33,720 Speaker 1: want him to debate, they don't want to release the records. 417 00:23:33,840 --> 00:23:36,679 Speaker 1: It means there's something damaging there. It means you have 418 00:23:36,720 --> 00:23:40,080 Speaker 1: a dishonest campaign. Put aside all his wacky ideas, he 419 00:23:40,359 --> 00:23:43,000 Speaker 1: actually wants to want it to release one third of 420 00:23:43,040 --> 00:23:46,439 Speaker 1: all the prisoners in Pennsylvania prisons. Now you think that 421 00:23:46,520 --> 00:23:54,600 Speaker 1: idea would be enough, But clearly, clearly this is a 422 00:23:54,640 --> 00:23:58,919 Speaker 1: campaign of wise in misdirection. And by the way, Odds' 423 00:23:58,920 --> 00:24:02,159 Speaker 1: is no prize either. He's a complete nutbag. There's no 424 00:24:02,400 --> 00:24:07,280 Speaker 1: endorsement of that. Daytime Kouk I looked up a list 425 00:24:07,280 --> 00:24:09,159 Speaker 1: of the kind of crap that he was pushing on 426 00:24:09,200 --> 00:24:16,720 Speaker 1: his TV show, like raspberry keytones to lose weight. Oh really, 427 00:24:16,800 --> 00:24:20,679 Speaker 1: yoh yeah, yeah, keytnes give raspberry their color and if 428 00:24:20,720 --> 00:24:24,920 Speaker 1: you ingest enough Raspberry keytones then you'll start dropping pounds. 429 00:24:25,359 --> 00:24:27,960 Speaker 1: That was just one example. They're about ten of them. Yeah, 430 00:24:28,000 --> 00:24:30,719 Speaker 1: so he just sold himself out to every crackpot new 431 00:24:30,760 --> 00:24:35,680 Speaker 1: age a rip off idea. I don't know. You think 432 00:24:35,960 --> 00:24:38,159 Speaker 1: you think there'd be better choices than those two, but 433 00:24:38,240 --> 00:24:43,119 Speaker 1: I guess not. Apparently, Chuck Schumer got caught in a 434 00:24:43,200 --> 00:24:47,840 Speaker 1: hot mic today talking to Biden on the tarmac. Biden 435 00:24:47,880 --> 00:24:50,200 Speaker 1: made a trip to New York City today. It looks 436 00:24:50,200 --> 00:24:52,640 Speaker 1: like the debate didn't hurt us too much in Pennsylvania 437 00:24:52,720 --> 00:24:56,480 Speaker 1: as of today, so that's good. They were mumbling back 438 00:24:56,520 --> 00:25:00,440 Speaker 1: and forth about these key Senate races. Well better we 439 00:25:00,440 --> 00:25:02,959 Speaker 1: were just talking about Garcetti. It's Keyty Garcetti. That at 440 00:25:03,000 --> 00:25:07,640 Speaker 1: least the Democrats retained that slim control. Well, Fetterman only 441 00:25:07,680 --> 00:25:09,920 Speaker 1: had a one point lead on average, So I don't 442 00:25:09,960 --> 00:25:12,040 Speaker 1: know what I didn't. We didn't get hurt too much. 443 00:25:12,359 --> 00:25:14,840 Speaker 1: You only had a point to spare. Okay, you would 444 00:25:14,880 --> 00:25:18,000 Speaker 1: think at least several points worth of people would say, 445 00:25:18,920 --> 00:25:20,920 Speaker 1: And that's what I just mentioned. It's not so much 446 00:25:20,920 --> 00:25:23,040 Speaker 1: he had the stroke, it's just this cover up. We 447 00:25:23,040 --> 00:25:24,600 Speaker 1: weren't really able to get a real look at the 448 00:25:24,640 --> 00:25:27,879 Speaker 1: candidate until now. And they may resent that that you 449 00:25:27,920 --> 00:25:33,679 Speaker 1: did that. I was listening to the audio of a 450 00:25:33,720 --> 00:25:38,320 Speaker 1: Fox News show where they were talking to six voters, 451 00:25:38,560 --> 00:25:41,520 Speaker 1: was their own little focus group, I think it was six, 452 00:25:41,640 --> 00:25:45,359 Speaker 1: and they had three undecideds in there after seeing the debate, 453 00:25:45,400 --> 00:25:47,679 Speaker 1: what'd you think? And all three of them were thumbs 454 00:25:47,720 --> 00:25:51,000 Speaker 1: down on Fetterman because of the stroke. They thought he 455 00:25:52,000 --> 00:25:55,479 Speaker 1: they thought he can't function all that well. And they 456 00:25:55,760 --> 00:25:59,199 Speaker 1: were in the middle on him. Right, And you know 457 00:25:59,280 --> 00:26:02,960 Speaker 1: that's just three people, but you know, if that's an indication, 458 00:26:03,720 --> 00:26:05,880 Speaker 1: because because he had a he had has a very 459 00:26:05,880 --> 00:26:10,400 Speaker 1: thin marginius support here and I can't the people who 460 00:26:10,400 --> 00:26:13,720 Speaker 1: are supporting and we're people who just want they want 461 00:26:13,720 --> 00:26:15,159 Speaker 1: the guy who's going to release a third of the 462 00:26:15,200 --> 00:26:19,159 Speaker 1: prisoners at a prison. It's those people. So it doesn't 463 00:26:19,160 --> 00:26:21,479 Speaker 1: matter if Fetterman doesn't have a head, they're still going 464 00:26:21,520 --> 00:26:27,280 Speaker 1: to vote for him. It doesn't have a head, right, Uh. Yeah. 465 00:26:27,280 --> 00:26:29,600 Speaker 1: There's several Senate races that are pretty close to including 466 00:26:29,640 --> 00:26:34,000 Speaker 1: Nevada and Georgia. We have apparently Schumer mumbled the state 467 00:26:34,040 --> 00:26:35,919 Speaker 1: where we're going down though, is Georgia. It's hard to 468 00:26:35,920 --> 00:26:38,879 Speaker 1: believe they'll go for herschel Walker, but I guess the 469 00:26:39,000 --> 00:26:41,480 Speaker 1: polling there is not good for a Yeah, Schumer said 470 00:26:41,520 --> 00:26:46,560 Speaker 1: we're going downhill, we're on danger. Yeah. But and Nevada 471 00:26:46,640 --> 00:26:50,320 Speaker 1: has a Democratic incumbent that's in trouble against the Republican challengers. 472 00:26:50,359 --> 00:26:53,760 Speaker 1: So those are three states and three seats, but that 473 00:26:54,040 --> 00:26:56,560 Speaker 1: they could lose, and that's why they're getting pretty nervous 474 00:26:56,560 --> 00:26:58,560 Speaker 1: about all this. All right, we got more coming up. 475 00:26:58,640 --> 00:27:00,920 Speaker 1: John and Ken caf I A M six forty Live 476 00:27:00,960 --> 00:27:03,680 Speaker 1: everywhere on the iHeartRadio app So the mountain lion was 477 00:27:03,760 --> 00:27:06,760 Speaker 1: tranquilized once it got away, then it ran up in 478 00:27:06,800 --> 00:27:09,960 Speaker 1: a tree. It was tranquilized again, and apparently it jumped 479 00:27:10,040 --> 00:27:13,919 Speaker 1: out of the tree and now it's still roaming around. Wow, 480 00:27:13,960 --> 00:27:17,360 Speaker 1: two shots. They didn't have enough tranquilizer in their mixture there. 481 00:27:17,560 --> 00:27:22,119 Speaker 1: This is a very very determined mountain lion mat or female. 482 00:27:22,160 --> 00:27:24,439 Speaker 1: We don't know yet. I don't know yet. It's on 483 00:27:24,480 --> 00:27:26,480 Speaker 1: the loose set the Brentwood country. Is it big? Have 484 00:27:26,560 --> 00:27:28,600 Speaker 1: we got the size idea of it? Or let me 485 00:27:28,640 --> 00:27:30,600 Speaker 1: see if I can find out. Is there a photo 486 00:27:30,760 --> 00:27:33,840 Speaker 1: or some video to its shocky? But I don't have it. 487 00:27:33,960 --> 00:27:36,160 Speaker 1: Let's see. Oh, they'll still be there when John comes home. 488 00:27:36,200 --> 00:27:41,840 Speaker 1: Time jump out at him. That'll be my luck. I'll 489 00:27:41,920 --> 00:27:46,760 Speaker 1: step out of my car about jump me. This isn't 490 00:27:46,760 --> 00:27:49,480 Speaker 1: the Brentwood area of LA. The west side there, and 491 00:27:49,520 --> 00:27:52,199 Speaker 1: this mountain lion was spotted hours ago and they've been 492 00:27:52,240 --> 00:27:54,760 Speaker 1: trying to track it tranquilize itself. And it doesn't appear 493 00:27:54,800 --> 00:27:57,080 Speaker 1: to be wearing a tracking caller, so it's not one 494 00:27:57,119 --> 00:28:01,840 Speaker 1: of the dozens that are being it's an un well. 495 00:28:01,880 --> 00:28:06,119 Speaker 1: They have a school across the street, and there's usually 496 00:28:06,160 --> 00:28:08,560 Speaker 1: a long line of school buses and it's definitely the 497 00:28:08,600 --> 00:28:11,280 Speaker 1: road I take home from the bagel shop. And now 498 00:28:11,280 --> 00:28:15,800 Speaker 1: they're dropping off or picking up the kids a block away, 499 00:28:17,240 --> 00:28:20,040 Speaker 1: like they won't. Oh right, they apparently the school is 500 00:28:20,040 --> 00:28:23,800 Speaker 1: in lockdown originally, Yeah, because this happened to about eleven 501 00:28:23,840 --> 00:28:26,520 Speaker 1: this morning. They spotted this mountain lion, so they locked 502 00:28:26,520 --> 00:28:29,399 Speaker 1: down the schools out of an abundance of caution, and 503 00:28:29,520 --> 00:28:33,320 Speaker 1: residents are being asked to stay indoors. That's right, hunker 504 00:28:33,359 --> 00:28:35,760 Speaker 1: down there, you go, go to John's bunker. That's right. 505 00:28:37,680 --> 00:28:40,360 Speaker 1: There's a use for my bunker to hide from a 506 00:28:40,360 --> 00:28:44,560 Speaker 1: mountain lion. They're probably more scared of you than you 507 00:28:44,600 --> 00:28:48,360 Speaker 1: are of them. No, no, I'm more scared of him. 508 00:28:48,520 --> 00:28:50,360 Speaker 1: But if you're a tiny dog or a tiny person 509 00:28:50,400 --> 00:28:53,760 Speaker 1: like Deborah Mark, it's different because that's prey. Yeah. Well, 510 00:28:53,880 --> 00:28:56,000 Speaker 1: I'd be very nervous if I was walking my two 511 00:28:56,040 --> 00:28:59,080 Speaker 1: little dogs and a mountain lion approached. Oh you're you're 512 00:28:59,080 --> 00:29:03,360 Speaker 1: a mini bite. I mean i'd free all right. Well, 513 00:29:03,480 --> 00:29:05,800 Speaker 1: we can see with the saga of the mountain lion 514 00:29:05,880 --> 00:29:08,280 Speaker 1: on the loose on the west side. Let's see if 515 00:29:08,280 --> 00:29:11,440 Speaker 1: they can ever get it and take it somewhere safe. 516 00:29:11,880 --> 00:29:14,440 Speaker 1: Coming up after four o'clock, we're trying to go through 517 00:29:14,480 --> 00:29:16,840 Speaker 1: the ballot propositions with the yes and the no sides, 518 00:29:16,920 --> 00:29:19,600 Speaker 1: and well, we've succeeded to have a yes and a no. 519 00:29:20,320 --> 00:29:23,040 Speaker 1: It's not one of the more glamorous ballot measures. Proposition 520 00:29:23,200 --> 00:29:29,440 Speaker 1: thirty one about banning flavored tobacco products. A yes vote 521 00:29:30,960 --> 00:29:37,320 Speaker 1: affirms the decision by the legislature, doesn't it. I think. 522 00:29:37,360 --> 00:29:45,280 Speaker 1: So that's a good question. We don't even know. No, 523 00:29:45,960 --> 00:29:49,400 Speaker 1: did we recommend something on the we did, Yes, what 524 00:29:49,520 --> 00:29:53,280 Speaker 1: did we recommend? A yes vote approves the law enacted 525 00:29:53,280 --> 00:29:56,480 Speaker 1: by the state legislature in twenty twenty two prohibit the 526 00:29:56,520 --> 00:30:00,280 Speaker 1: retail sale of certain flavored tobacco products. So a no 527 00:30:00,440 --> 00:30:03,240 Speaker 1: vote is what we recommended, all right, So yes vote, 528 00:30:04,560 --> 00:30:06,840 Speaker 1: yes vote is in favor of the band, correct, A 529 00:30:06,960 --> 00:30:10,040 Speaker 1: no vote is against the band. That's correct. Okay, good, 530 00:30:10,040 --> 00:30:13,160 Speaker 1: I'm voting no. But well, that's what our voter guide has. 531 00:30:13,200 --> 00:30:15,160 Speaker 1: But it's not the government, it's not the well, I'm 532 00:30:15,200 --> 00:30:18,240 Speaker 1: just really, you know, confirming the vote. I got a 533 00:30:18,240 --> 00:30:20,760 Speaker 1: little confused in the last few minutes. I hope you 534 00:30:20,840 --> 00:30:22,560 Speaker 1: vote the same as our voter guide. That would defeat 535 00:30:22,600 --> 00:30:26,600 Speaker 1: the I take it with me. Um, Yes, a no 536 00:30:26,800 --> 00:30:30,200 Speaker 1: vote rejects the law and prevents it from taking effect. Right, 537 00:30:30,280 --> 00:30:33,040 Speaker 1: So you're right. It is a little tricky because you 538 00:30:33,040 --> 00:30:36,640 Speaker 1: would think, oh, I'm voting yes for the repealing the band, 539 00:30:36,960 --> 00:30:40,040 Speaker 1: but no, that's because the tobacco companies put this on 540 00:30:40,080 --> 00:30:41,840 Speaker 1: the ballot. That's why it could be a bit confusing. 541 00:30:41,880 --> 00:30:44,400 Speaker 1: And you think if they did that, they'd want you 542 00:30:44,440 --> 00:30:47,160 Speaker 1: to vote to overturn the band by voting yes. But 543 00:30:47,160 --> 00:30:51,280 Speaker 1: it's actually vote no. So you want to overturn it's 544 00:30:51,280 --> 00:30:53,200 Speaker 1: really that's right if you want to affirm what the 545 00:30:53,280 --> 00:30:55,240 Speaker 1: legislature did in twenty Now, I think I'm going to 546 00:30:55,280 --> 00:31:02,080 Speaker 1: skip it. Skip what the voting on that confused no vote. No, 547 00:31:02,720 --> 00:31:05,800 Speaker 1: We've we've we've put it together for you. Now, Oh 548 00:31:05,840 --> 00:31:10,760 Speaker 1: my god. All right, Well we're just talking about politics 549 00:31:10,760 --> 00:31:14,200 Speaker 1: in Washington, d C. We thought you'd enjoy this less 550 00:31:14,200 --> 00:31:18,720 Speaker 1: than a week, I think. After she gushed about electric 551 00:31:18,760 --> 00:31:22,760 Speaker 1: school buses when talking about the Inflation Reduction Act, Vice 552 00:31:22,800 --> 00:31:27,040 Speaker 1: President Kamala Harris appeared yesterday in Seattle and went off 553 00:31:27,120 --> 00:31:34,480 Speaker 1: on school buses again. Here's what's part of what she said. So, 554 00:31:35,200 --> 00:31:39,280 Speaker 1: here's the thing. Who doesn't love a yellow school bus? Right? 555 00:31:39,440 --> 00:31:41,520 Speaker 1: Can you raise your hand if you love a yellow 556 00:31:41,560 --> 00:31:47,719 Speaker 1: school blass? Right? Just there's something about and most of us, 557 00:31:47,800 --> 00:31:50,760 Speaker 1: many of us went to school on the yellow school blass, right, 558 00:31:51,440 --> 00:31:54,920 Speaker 1: And it's part of it's part of our our experience 559 00:31:55,040 --> 00:31:59,160 Speaker 1: growing up. It's part of, you know, a nostalgia and 560 00:31:59,200 --> 00:32:03,040 Speaker 1: a memory of the excitement and joy of going to 561 00:32:03,200 --> 00:32:06,680 Speaker 1: school to be with your favorite teacher, to be with 562 00:32:06,760 --> 00:32:11,760 Speaker 1: your best friends, and to learn. The school bus takes 563 00:32:11,840 --> 00:32:17,920 Speaker 1: us there. And in America today I see five million 564 00:32:18,000 --> 00:32:22,120 Speaker 1: children a day go to school on the yellow school bus, 565 00:32:22,120 --> 00:32:28,480 Speaker 1: really five million children a day. And find today ninety 566 00:32:28,560 --> 00:32:33,760 Speaker 1: five percent of our school buses are fueled with diesel fuel. 567 00:32:34,200 --> 00:32:40,640 Speaker 1: Oh no, which contributes to very serious conditions that are 568 00:32:40,720 --> 00:32:46,600 Speaker 1: about health and about the ability to learn. So when 569 00:32:46,640 --> 00:32:49,960 Speaker 1: I think about what the experience should be for our 570 00:32:50,040 --> 00:32:54,080 Speaker 1: children of going to school on the school bus, I 571 00:32:54,200 --> 00:32:57,640 Speaker 1: think about the fact that it should be about maximizing 572 00:32:57,680 --> 00:33:04,080 Speaker 1: that experience for them, understanding that this bus symbolizes so 573 00:33:04,200 --> 00:33:09,200 Speaker 1: much about our collective investment in our future. These are 574 00:33:09,240 --> 00:33:12,400 Speaker 1: the electric school buses. She was posing. You know, it 575 00:33:12,440 --> 00:33:14,480 Speaker 1: doesn't say she was talking to children. It sounds like 576 00:33:14,520 --> 00:33:18,120 Speaker 1: she is talking to children. I think it was just 577 00:33:18,160 --> 00:33:20,520 Speaker 1: a group of reporters and other people say, is at 578 00:33:20,600 --> 00:33:24,000 Speaker 1: lumin Field in Seattle? Yeah, I don't think there's any 579 00:33:24,080 --> 00:33:30,560 Speaker 1: children here. The school bus takes us there. Let's point 580 00:33:30,560 --> 00:33:32,960 Speaker 1: out the most important thing. This is what she's reduced to, 581 00:33:34,040 --> 00:33:36,479 Speaker 1: standing in front of yellow school buses and making speeches 582 00:33:36,520 --> 00:33:39,640 Speaker 1: about electric school buses. So she makes it sound like 583 00:33:40,160 --> 00:33:42,640 Speaker 1: you rode to school on the diesel school bus and 584 00:33:42,640 --> 00:33:46,240 Speaker 1: it damaged your brain. Right, we're all brain damaged, you know. 585 00:33:46,280 --> 00:33:49,960 Speaker 1: I'm watching the video of her, and she's really animated, 586 00:33:50,280 --> 00:33:54,960 Speaker 1: big smile, she's she's gesturing with her hands. Oh, she's 587 00:33:55,080 --> 00:33:58,720 Speaker 1: very exciting. It looks really excited like she just want 588 00:33:58,720 --> 00:34:03,080 Speaker 1: a prize. I mean, ah, oh man, right, can you 589 00:34:03,160 --> 00:34:05,840 Speaker 1: raise your hand if you love a yellow school bus? Right? 590 00:34:09,440 --> 00:34:13,960 Speaker 1: It's one of those uneasy moments where people keep comparing 591 00:34:13,960 --> 00:34:16,680 Speaker 1: her to the Julia Louis Dreyfus character on the HBO 592 00:34:16,760 --> 00:34:19,960 Speaker 1: comedy V I never saw that. I did. I watched 593 00:34:20,000 --> 00:34:24,400 Speaker 1: all whatever seasons of it. It's amusing. It's incredibly sarcastic, 594 00:34:24,440 --> 00:34:27,719 Speaker 1: fast talking, fast paced show, but it basically is all 595 00:34:27,719 --> 00:34:30,840 Speaker 1: about the embarrassment of being a vice president, and everybody 596 00:34:30,840 --> 00:34:33,880 Speaker 1: around here was kind of goofy and foolish, and and 597 00:34:34,000 --> 00:34:36,320 Speaker 1: she made goofy and foolish choices and say goofy and 598 00:34:36,360 --> 00:34:40,640 Speaker 1: foolish things. And now this is her second school bus 599 00:34:40,680 --> 00:34:44,759 Speaker 1: speech in a month. Right, Yeah, we played this last week, Right, Yeah, 600 00:34:44,760 --> 00:34:47,080 Speaker 1: it was real recently. Are some parts of the inflation 601 00:34:47,120 --> 00:34:50,880 Speaker 1: reduction this amazing new law that you are most excited about? 602 00:34:52,480 --> 00:34:56,040 Speaker 1: I mean so much so. I'm one of the things 603 00:34:56,080 --> 00:34:59,000 Speaker 1: that I'm very excited about is what we have been 604 00:34:59,040 --> 00:35:04,640 Speaker 1: doing in terms of electric vehicles. Um, and I have 605 00:35:04,760 --> 00:35:08,200 Speaker 1: a particular fondness I must tell you for electric school buses. 606 00:35:08,239 --> 00:35:14,440 Speaker 1: I love electric school buses. I really manufacturing them in 607 00:35:14,520 --> 00:35:17,759 Speaker 1: our country. I've been to the manufacturing planets. I've been 608 00:35:17,800 --> 00:35:21,640 Speaker 1: on these electric school buses. And think about it, aside 609 00:35:21,640 --> 00:35:25,000 Speaker 1: from the pandemic, on a daily basis, twenty five million 610 00:35:25,080 --> 00:35:28,680 Speaker 1: children in our country every day go to school on 611 00:35:28,840 --> 00:35:33,319 Speaker 1: those diesel fueled schools saves. All Right, there she is 612 00:35:33,400 --> 00:35:37,320 Speaker 1: gushing about electric school buses. Let me come back. It'll 613 00:35:37,320 --> 00:35:39,880 Speaker 1: be the yes and no sides. You think she's stoned 614 00:35:40,480 --> 00:35:43,560 Speaker 1: on Prop thirty one? Yes, yeah, I think she's stoned too. 615 00:35:44,239 --> 00:35:48,560 Speaker 1: Do you think she stoned? I take the fit she 616 00:35:48,560 --> 00:35:53,200 Speaker 1: hailed the diesel. My friends talk that slow when they're stoned. Yeah. Yeah, 617 00:35:53,239 --> 00:35:56,400 Speaker 1: I'm thinking she's nervous to do public speaking, and so 618 00:35:56,719 --> 00:36:00,040 Speaker 1: she does a big, a big hit right before he 619 00:36:00,080 --> 00:36:02,239 Speaker 1: has to go to the podium. Because that's just a 620 00:36:02,440 --> 00:36:07,160 Speaker 1: strange delivery. She's got yes and No One Prop thirty 621 00:36:07,160 --> 00:36:09,520 Speaker 1: one also another keyword coming.
