Speaker 1: They got that message out after six months or no,

7
00:00:22,480 --> 00:00:26,680
Speaker 1: because the total keeps going up every month, which means

8
00:00:26,920 --> 00:00:30,240
Speaker 1: people are still discovering it and still using it more frequently.

9
00:00:30,320 --> 00:00:32,800
Speaker 2: What thought we had a tiny dip in the last month.

10
00:00:33,000 --> 00:00:36,760
Speaker 1: Not on a per episode basis.

11

20
00:01:06,240 --> 00:01:10,720
Speaker 2: not striking, even though that's our union strike. Though I

21
00:01:10,760 --> 00:01:13,360
Speaker 2: am not from the newscast, not.

22
00:01:13,400 --> 00:01:19,080
Speaker 3: From exactly because I do, I'm considered an actor.

23
00:01:18,560 --> 00:01:21,880
Speaker 1: And she portrays fake newscasters and the movies and I

24
00:01:21,959 --> 00:01:22,399
Speaker 1: do right.

25
00:01:22,560 --> 00:01:25,360
Speaker 3: But but my my newscasts here are real, just in

26
00:01:25,360 --> 00:01:27,280
Speaker 3: case you we're wondering, not.

27
00:01:27,280 --> 00:01:30,400
Speaker 2: This fake newscast. I gotta believe this is your main

28
00:01:30,600 --> 00:01:32,800
Speaker 2: breadwinner job. I would assume this one.

29
00:01:33,240 --> 00:01:36,000
Speaker 1: Yes, yes, Or.

30
00:01:36,040 --> 00:01:37,399
Speaker 2: She may leave us some day to be a star

31
00:01:37,480 --> 00:01:39,560
Speaker 2: on some show. You never know, she could if she

32
00:01:39,600 --> 00:01:42,240
Speaker 2: wanted to. Is that true?

33
00:01:42,840 --> 00:01:43,160
Speaker 4: Yeah?

34
00:01:43,720 --> 00:01:50,960
Speaker 2: Yeah, anybody who the big news? Of course, today the

35
00:01:51,200 --> 00:01:55,279
Speaker 2: state legislators are about to leave for like a month's summer

36
00:01:55,360 --> 00:01:59,760
Speaker 2: time off. So before they did, they came back around

37
00:01:59,840 --> 00:02:03,440
Speaker 2: to the Senate Bill fourteen, the one that would increase

38
00:02:03,520 --> 00:02:07,560
Speaker 2: punishments for child sex traffickers make it a strike, which

39
00:02:07,600 --> 00:02:10,720
Speaker 2: could lead to more significant prison time. The example was, well,

40
00:02:10,760 --> 00:02:13,480
Speaker 2: they could get twelve years. They're often gonna get, you know,

41
00:02:13,520 --> 00:02:15,560
Speaker 2: a lot less time, sir, because of the good time

42
00:02:16,000 --> 00:02:19,000
Speaker 2: halftime credits at California is going on. But because it

43
00:02:19,040 --> 00:02:21,680
Speaker 2: would be a strike, that doesn't come into play. So

44
00:02:21,800 --> 00:02:24,240
Speaker 2: the idea was to make child trafficking a serious felony,

45
00:02:25,040 --> 00:02:28,120
Speaker 2: and on Tuesday it failed in the Assembly Public Safety

46
00:02:28,160 --> 00:02:32,960
Speaker 2: Committee because all the Democrats stained and two Republicans voted yes.

47
00:02:32,960 --> 00:02:34,919
Speaker 2: But that's not enough to get it out. That's where

48
00:02:34,919 --> 00:02:38,760
Speaker 2: we heard the chair, Reggie Jones, Sawyer giggling as the

49
00:02:38,800 --> 00:02:42,359
Speaker 2: audience moaned and yelled at him. Today the big development,

50
00:02:42,360 --> 00:02:46,160
Speaker 2: and of course it started yesterday where it was talked

51
00:02:46,160 --> 00:02:49,919
Speaker 2: about even by Governor Newsom. And today it got back

52
00:02:50,360 --> 00:02:53,239
Speaker 2: to the Assembly Public Safety Committee. The Republicans yesterday wanted

53
00:02:53,240 --> 00:02:56,000
Speaker 2: to force a floor vote in the Assembly and just

54
00:02:56,040 --> 00:02:59,200
Speaker 2: bypassed the committee instead. What happened today as it went

55
00:02:59,280 --> 00:03:02,080
Speaker 2: back to the Assembly Public Safety Committee and what do

56
00:03:02,120 --> 00:03:04,600
Speaker 2: you know? This time had passed six to zero with

57
00:03:04,800 --> 00:03:06,720
Speaker 2: just two Democrats not voting.

58
00:03:07,280 --> 00:03:11,600
Speaker 1: Fine, and that would be Mia Bonta who refused to

59
00:03:11,680 --> 00:03:14,480
Speaker 1: vote for putting the sex perverts away.

60
00:03:14,520 --> 00:03:17,080
Speaker 2: And the other is Isaac Bryan, who is the Democratic

61
00:03:17,200 --> 00:03:20,440
Speaker 2: majority leader in the Assembly. And so Mea Bonta and

62
00:03:20,520 --> 00:03:25,919
Speaker 2: Isaac Bryan in favor of sex perverts selling young children.

63
00:03:27,639 --> 00:03:31,720
Speaker 2: You can't make it any player plainer than that. I mean,

64
00:03:31,720 --> 00:03:33,880
Speaker 2: it was forty to nothing in the Senate. I didn't

65
00:03:33,880 --> 00:03:37,000
Speaker 2: even know that forty to nothing. Every Democrat and every

66
00:03:37,040 --> 00:03:41,000
Speaker 2: Republican in the Senate voted for this. I mean, can

67
00:03:41,040 --> 00:03:44,960
Speaker 2: you think of any any issue that important, that significant,

68
00:03:45,520 --> 00:03:46,760
Speaker 2: especially in this state?

69
00:03:48,240 --> 00:03:48,920
Speaker 1: Nothing vote.

70
00:03:49,440 --> 00:03:52,440
Speaker 2: This bill has been the work mainly of State Senator

71
00:03:52,480 --> 00:03:56,480
Speaker 2: Shennon Grove, Republican from Bakersfield, the Central Valley. Let's get

72
00:03:56,480 --> 00:03:59,560
Speaker 2: her back on this. She's not ready yet, not here, oh,

73
00:04:00,040 --> 00:04:02,720
Speaker 2: still dealing with this. It says here she picked up

74
00:04:02,840 --> 00:04:06,080
Speaker 2: eighteen co authors on the bill in the Assembly, and

75
00:04:06,200 --> 00:04:08,680
Speaker 2: most of them Democrats. That in addition to this passing

76
00:04:08,680 --> 00:04:11,040
Speaker 2: the Public Safety Committee, the next thing, it goes to

77
00:04:11,120 --> 00:04:14,040
Speaker 2: the Appropriations Committee the Assembly, which won't happen until they

78
00:04:14,040 --> 00:04:17,599
Speaker 2: come back from their break sometime in mid to late August.

79
00:04:17,680 --> 00:04:20,720
Speaker 2: But because she's picked up co authors, it's going to

80
00:04:20,760 --> 00:04:24,440
Speaker 2: pass the Assembly, so this is certainly going to happen.

81
00:04:25,400 --> 00:04:32,359
Speaker 1: You know, they had a victim, Odessa Perkins, she had

82
00:04:32,440 --> 00:04:39,560
Speaker 1: been sold sexually, and she testified for the committee and

83
00:04:39,839 --> 00:04:42,359
Speaker 1: she said, I'm here to say I was molested and

84
00:04:42,520 --> 00:04:46,880
Speaker 1: raped repeatedly by black and white men and even some women.

85
00:04:47,400 --> 00:04:50,159
Speaker 1: So it does not matter the race. What matters is

86
00:04:50,200 --> 00:04:55,440
Speaker 1: saving our children. And as she testified, she's looking at

87
00:04:55,440 --> 00:04:58,039
Speaker 1: the committee, and I bet you you know Reggie Sawyer

88
00:04:58,120 --> 00:05:01,119
Speaker 1: Jones was busy giggling or whatever he does behind his desk,

89
00:05:01,839 --> 00:05:04,360
Speaker 1: because she looked at them and said, I am here

90
00:05:04,480 --> 00:05:07,400
Speaker 1: and I look at your faces in wonder do you care?

91
00:05:09,160 --> 00:05:10,480
Speaker 1: And no, they don't care.

92
00:05:11,880 --> 00:05:13,920
Speaker 2: Those are the people that made those noise. Do we

93
00:05:13,960 --> 00:05:16,160
Speaker 2: still have that audio, Eric that we can play. Yeah,

94
00:05:16,400 --> 00:05:18,800
Speaker 2: the people that were moaning this is terrible, horrible.

95
00:05:19,040 --> 00:05:20,080
Speaker 1: These are some of them.

96
00:05:20,160 --> 00:05:22,360
Speaker 2: Most of them are the victims of child sex trafficking.

97
00:05:22,560 --> 00:05:23,960
Speaker 1: Or we'll get to it. But we just got Shannon

98
00:05:23,960 --> 00:05:26,400
Speaker 1: Grove on the line, all right, so let's get her

99
00:05:26,440 --> 00:05:30,359
Speaker 1: on and she's the state senator from Bakersfield who wrote

100
00:05:30,360 --> 00:05:32,000
Speaker 1: the original bill. Shannon, how are you?

101
00:05:32,880 --> 00:05:35,080
Speaker 4: I'm good, guys, Sorry I was late calling in.

102
00:05:35,480 --> 00:05:38,320
Speaker 1: You're the woman of the year right now, So yeah,

103
00:05:38,480 --> 00:05:42,200
Speaker 1: explain all that's happened in the last twenty four hours.

104
00:05:42,960 --> 00:05:45,000
Speaker 4: You know, on Tuesday they voted this bill down. I

105
00:05:45,000 --> 00:05:48,880
Speaker 4: thought it was dead Tuesday night. Conversation started Wednesday morning,

106
00:05:48,920 --> 00:05:52,280
Speaker 4: things got a little different. Media storm all day Wednesday,

107
00:05:52,960 --> 00:05:54,599
Speaker 4: and then got a call that they were going to

108
00:05:54,600 --> 00:05:58,200
Speaker 4: put it up for a vote to go back to committee,

109
00:05:58,240 --> 00:06:01,520
Speaker 4: and I said I wanted it brought to the for

110
00:06:01,600 --> 00:06:04,240
Speaker 4: a vote because there's almost fifty co authors, so we

111
00:06:04,279 --> 00:06:05,560
Speaker 4: knew we'd get it off the floor, and I was

112
00:06:05,600 --> 00:06:07,120
Speaker 4: trying to get it back into the Senate where I

113
00:06:07,160 --> 00:06:09,320
Speaker 4: know it's safe, to the Governor's desk, where I know

114
00:06:09,400 --> 00:06:14,520
Speaker 4: it's safe. Anyways, it worked out to where we had

115
00:06:14,760 --> 00:06:17,560
Speaker 4: another vote. The chair of the Public Safety Committee who

116
00:06:17,600 --> 00:06:20,279
Speaker 4: killed the bill on Tuesday, brought the bill back to

117
00:06:20,320 --> 00:06:23,200
Speaker 4: his committee. They took a vote, it passed out a committee,

118
00:06:23,240 --> 00:06:25,880
Speaker 4: and now it is on its way to appropriations for funding.

119
00:06:27,320 --> 00:06:32,520
Speaker 1: How much of this was the public rebelling, calling up

120
00:06:33,080 --> 00:06:35,520
Speaker 1: making a ruckus, how much of it was the media coverage?

121
00:06:35,520 --> 00:06:36,640
Speaker 1: How much of it was Newsome?

122
00:06:37,720 --> 00:06:39,680
Speaker 4: So, first of all, I'm a believer, so I believe

123
00:06:39,760 --> 00:06:42,640
Speaker 4: God had his hand on this whole thing. Second, it's

124
00:06:42,680 --> 00:06:45,919
Speaker 4: the California citizens and the media that got involved and said,

125
00:06:46,560 --> 00:06:49,640
Speaker 4: you've got to be kidding me. Selling the child for

126
00:06:49,760 --> 00:06:52,080
Speaker 4: sex is not considered a serious felony in the state

127
00:06:52,080 --> 00:06:55,599
Speaker 4: of California. And then of course Gavin Newsom waying in

128
00:06:56,360 --> 00:06:58,280
Speaker 4: on the side of the full Senate that had a

129
00:06:58,360 --> 00:07:03,480
Speaker 4: unanimous vote for Democrats and Republican and coming out publicly

130
00:07:03,800 --> 00:07:07,560
Speaker 4: of his disappointment of what what happened. But the people

131
00:07:07,560 --> 00:07:09,960
Speaker 4: in the state of California and the media really got involved,

132
00:07:09,960 --> 00:07:12,280
Speaker 4: and I applaud you guys, and every media outlet that

133
00:07:12,480 --> 00:07:16,679
Speaker 4: entered into this conversation. The reason why is because people

134
00:07:16,680 --> 00:07:18,520
Speaker 4: don't know what's going on in the building unless you

135
00:07:18,520 --> 00:07:21,040
Speaker 4: guys share it, and you guys understood it just like

136
00:07:21,120 --> 00:07:23,720
Speaker 4: I did. Selling the child for sex should be a

137
00:07:23,760 --> 00:07:26,000
Speaker 4: serious felony in the state of California, and it is not.

138
00:07:26,480 --> 00:07:28,920
Speaker 4: And you took this side and it worked.

139
00:07:29,360 --> 00:07:34,480
Speaker 1: It should have been a serious felony forever. Absolutely shocking

140
00:07:34,520 --> 00:07:36,880
Speaker 1: that this needed to be done. When you told us

141
00:07:36,960 --> 00:07:41,160
Speaker 1: yesterday that somebody committing this kind of felony selling children

142
00:07:41,200 --> 00:07:43,920
Speaker 1: for sex would probably get out in less than four years,

143
00:07:45,400 --> 00:07:47,240
Speaker 1: it's like, you know it's bad, you just don't think

144
00:07:47,280 --> 00:07:49,520
Speaker 1: it's that bad. But it was that bad.

145
00:07:50,440 --> 00:07:52,520
Speaker 4: It was that bad, and it wasn't probably. I mean,

146
00:07:52,560 --> 00:07:55,920
Speaker 4: we have several We worked with the heat Unit in

147
00:07:55,960 --> 00:07:58,560
Speaker 4: Alameda County and Kurrent County District Attorney's Office, and they

148
00:07:58,600 --> 00:08:02,480
Speaker 4: provided us with case aftercepter case where someone would be

149
00:08:04,560 --> 00:08:08,239
Speaker 4: arrested and prosecuted and put in jail for twelve years

150
00:08:08,280 --> 00:08:10,880
Speaker 4: and they would get out in less than four These

151
00:08:10,880 --> 00:08:14,600
Speaker 4: are people who sell children and adults for sex. Yeah,

152
00:08:14,800 --> 00:08:17,880
Speaker 4: who brutalized them, brand them. I met people with cattle

153
00:08:17,920 --> 00:08:21,880
Speaker 4: brands on their like burned cattle brands, tattoo brands, beating

154
00:08:21,960 --> 00:08:25,440
Speaker 4: starvation saw to me, I mean, it's just a procious

155
00:08:25,480 --> 00:08:27,760
Speaker 4: what these people go through to children.

156
00:08:27,840 --> 00:08:30,080
Speaker 1: They do this to children.

157
00:08:31,400 --> 00:08:33,920
Speaker 4: I have several pictures of children that are ten, twelve,

158
00:08:34,000 --> 00:08:36,920
Speaker 4: thirteen years old with tattoos of ownership on their face.

159
00:08:37,480 --> 00:08:40,280
Speaker 1: On their face over on their faces. Wow, like a

160
00:08:40,320 --> 00:08:42,120
Speaker 1: branding kind of And this.

161
00:08:42,000 --> 00:08:44,679
Speaker 4: Is what like they belonged to this person.

162
00:08:45,240 --> 00:08:48,560
Speaker 1: Like cattle And this is what Reggie John Sawyer didn't

163
00:08:48,559 --> 00:08:51,600
Speaker 1: want to stop MEA Bonta is Isaac Brown. They didn't

164
00:08:51,640 --> 00:08:52,319
Speaker 1: want to stop that.

165
00:08:53,080 --> 00:08:54,960
Speaker 2: Ye know, what's what these two that's still abstained? Do

166
00:08:54,960 --> 00:08:55,600
Speaker 2: you know anything?

167
00:08:56,640 --> 00:09:00,680
Speaker 4: I don't. I don't. I focused on the positive today,

168
00:09:00,679 --> 00:09:02,640
Speaker 4: I didn't focus on the negative. I don't have an

169
00:09:02,679 --> 00:09:05,760
Speaker 4: explanation for those two votes, but I do know that

170
00:09:05,800 --> 00:09:08,280
Speaker 4: the information we provided to the other members got them

171
00:09:08,280 --> 00:09:10,960
Speaker 4: to a yes vote. It was just the explanation that

172
00:09:10,960 --> 00:09:12,440
Speaker 4: we were not going to lock up those that are

173
00:09:12,480 --> 00:09:16,040
Speaker 4: victims of human trafficking, that under dress perform certain you know,

174
00:09:16,360 --> 00:09:19,560
Speaker 4: acts that you know may not that would consider being

175
00:09:19,720 --> 00:09:23,040
Speaker 4: something bad to another person. But if somebody is threatening

176
00:09:23,080 --> 00:09:26,640
Speaker 4: your life, beating you threatening, you know, they operate under dress.

177
00:09:26,640 --> 00:09:29,600
Speaker 4: They don't make these independent decisions. We showed them that

178
00:09:29,640 --> 00:09:32,600
Speaker 4: these people would not be prosecuted. We gave them a

179
00:09:32,679 --> 00:09:35,520
Speaker 4: district attorney that's prosecuted over eight hundred and fifty cases

180
00:09:35,559 --> 00:09:37,680
Speaker 4: that to explain it to them. And I think that

181
00:09:37,800 --> 00:09:40,880
Speaker 4: providing them with that additional assurances that they they were

182
00:09:41,960 --> 00:09:44,319
Speaker 4: they felt comfortable enough to vote, I mean vote the

183
00:09:44,320 --> 00:09:47,000
Speaker 4: bill out unchanged so that.

184
00:09:47,640 --> 00:09:51,600
Speaker 2: They voted they thought that some of the victims of

185
00:09:51,640 --> 00:09:55,960
Speaker 2: these sex crimes would end up getting prosecuted. Yes, because

186
00:09:56,000 --> 00:09:59,319
Speaker 2: sometimes these victims are forced into participating into.

187
00:10:00,480 --> 00:10:04,520
Speaker 4: Terrible These victims are forced into it. And if you're

188
00:10:04,559 --> 00:10:06,920
Speaker 4: doing anything out of survival, you know, get this girl,

189
00:10:06,960 --> 00:10:09,000
Speaker 4: or I'm gonna kill you, or after I beat you

190
00:10:09,040 --> 00:10:10,640
Speaker 4: to death and send you to the hospital, you know

191
00:10:10,640 --> 00:10:11,040
Speaker 4: what I mean.

192
00:10:11,080 --> 00:10:15,320
Speaker 2: There's but nobody can be sorted out through the legal process,

193
00:10:15,400 --> 00:10:17,280
Speaker 2: right that can be sorted out through finding out the

194
00:10:17,320 --> 00:10:20,640
Speaker 2: investigation would happened. I that's a terrible reason.

195
00:10:21,280 --> 00:10:24,560
Speaker 4: Absolutely, but that's so it's it's out. Let's focus on

196
00:10:24,600 --> 00:10:26,920
Speaker 4: the positive. But we still need you guys engaged. I'm

197
00:10:27,000 --> 00:10:29,600
Speaker 4: counting on you because I don't want this to be

198
00:10:29,679 --> 00:10:32,120
Speaker 4: something that just passes through and doesn't get out of

199
00:10:32,160 --> 00:10:35,280
Speaker 4: appropriations to the governor's death. We need this still signed.

200
00:10:35,720 --> 00:10:37,680
Speaker 2: While we have you here for a moment. There's a

201
00:10:37,679 --> 00:10:40,360
Speaker 2: bunch of other nasty crimes that should be considered serious too,

202
00:10:40,400 --> 00:10:40,840
Speaker 2: aren't there.

203
00:10:42,000 --> 00:10:42,800
Speaker 4: Yes, there are.

204
00:10:44,320 --> 00:10:45,559
Speaker 1: Got into a few years back.

205
00:10:46,600 --> 00:10:49,120
Speaker 2: Yeah, rape up an unconscious person's a big one, right.

206
00:10:49,520 --> 00:10:51,800
Speaker 4: Yeah, that's not a serious sony because the woman can't

207
00:10:51,800 --> 00:10:52,120
Speaker 4: say no.

208
00:10:54,720 --> 00:10:59,880
Speaker 1: Come on, guys, Yes, I don't know nobody, nobody knows

209
00:11:00,000 --> 00:11:03,240
Speaker 1: well thinks like these people think. It's hard to relate.

210
00:11:03,320 --> 00:11:05,840
Speaker 1: It's hard to understand what they're talking about here. Why

211
00:11:05,880 --> 00:11:08,520
Speaker 1: did you become aware of this particular issue involving the

212
00:11:08,600 --> 00:11:11,120
Speaker 1: children being sold? Was this something you were weare for

213
00:11:11,160 --> 00:11:13,680
Speaker 1: a long time or did recently it was brought to

214
00:11:13,720 --> 00:11:15,800
Speaker 1: your attention About.

215
00:11:15,520 --> 00:11:18,000
Speaker 4: Four years ago. I went to a human trafficking awareness

216
00:11:18,000 --> 00:11:20,480
Speaker 4: state that my district attorney was doing starting a brand

217
00:11:20,480 --> 00:11:24,560
Speaker 4: new human trafficking investigation unit in our district in current County,

218
00:11:25,240 --> 00:11:28,080
Speaker 4: and Tyson McCoy was the assistant DA and Cindy Zimber

219
00:11:28,080 --> 00:11:32,080
Speaker 4: put it on and I met this incredible individual, Odessa

220
00:11:32,120 --> 00:11:34,880
Speaker 4: person Perkins, who was my witness actually in the hearing,

221
00:11:35,640 --> 00:11:38,160
Speaker 4: and I listened to her story about being trafficked at

222
00:11:38,200 --> 00:11:40,400
Speaker 4: seven years old. I mean grown men on a seven

223
00:11:40,480 --> 00:11:43,640
Speaker 4: year old. Just I wish I could give that horrible,

224
00:11:43,679 --> 00:11:46,960
Speaker 4: horrible vision in every single Californian's head so they would

225
00:11:46,960 --> 00:11:50,719
Speaker 4: realize how serious we need to take this issue. So

226
00:11:50,760 --> 00:11:52,959
Speaker 4: she told that story and I said, wow, I can't

227
00:11:52,960 --> 00:11:56,080
Speaker 4: believe that. So I wasn't really sure, so I checked

228
00:11:56,080 --> 00:11:59,320
Speaker 4: with staff. I said, is this true? Is this not

229
00:11:59,480 --> 00:12:02,079
Speaker 4: a serious felony or violent? Is this not serious or violent?

230
00:12:02,160 --> 00:12:05,440
Speaker 4: I mean carjacking, urs and bank robbery, all those are

231
00:12:05,480 --> 00:12:08,840
Speaker 4: serious and violent felonies, but this wasn't. And they checked

232
00:12:08,880 --> 00:12:10,599
Speaker 4: and sure enough it wasn't. I go, we're running a

233
00:12:10,600 --> 00:12:13,840
Speaker 4: piece of legislation. So we ran it. They killed it

234
00:12:13,960 --> 00:12:15,840
Speaker 4: last year, we ran it again this year, and here

235
00:12:15,840 --> 00:12:17,360
Speaker 4: we are all right.

236
00:12:17,400 --> 00:12:19,320
Speaker 2: Well, thanks again for coming on and talking to us,

237
00:12:19,480 --> 00:12:22,960
Speaker 2: and good work, and for thanks for really sticking to this.

239
00:12:26,160 --> 00:12:26,720
Speaker 4: it out of perform.

00:12:27,080 --> 00:12:30,400

00:12:35,040 --> 00:12:38,440
Speaker 1: the day it's gone. Before the appropriations committee, and we'll

244
00:12:38,480 --> 00:12:39,880
Speaker 1: be on top of it every minute.

245
00:12:40,600 --> 00:12:42,760
Speaker 4: Thank you, Thank you guys very much.

246
00:12:43,240 --> 00:12:46,560
Speaker 2: All right, State Senator Shannon Grove, Republican from Bakersfield, and

247
00:12:46,640 --> 00:12:49,920
Speaker 2: her work on Senate Bill fourteen, which has finally made

248
00:12:49,920 --> 00:12:52,520
Speaker 2: it through the Assembly Public Safety Committee. Your chance for

249
00:12:52,600 --> 00:12:54,839
Speaker 2: money is next. The keyword will be revealed. John and

250
00:12:54,920 --> 00:12:58,520
Speaker 2: Ken kf I AM six forty live everywhere iHeartRadio app.

251
00:12:59,160 --> 00:13:03,080
Speaker 5: You're listening to and Ken on demand from KFI AM

252
00:13:03,080 --> 00:13:04,400
Speaker 5: six forty.

253
00:13:05,360 --> 00:13:08,319
Speaker 2: All right, wrapping up most of our coverage of Senate

254
00:13:08,360 --> 00:13:11,640
Speaker 2: Bill fourteen, the one that would result in more harsh

255
00:13:11,720 --> 00:13:17,400
Speaker 2: punishment for people who traffic in children, sex traffic, labor traffic. Anyway,

256
00:13:18,320 --> 00:13:20,520
Speaker 2: We're going to play you first the audio that came

257
00:13:20,559 --> 00:13:23,000
Speaker 2: out Tuesday when the bill first died in the Assembly

258
00:13:23,040 --> 00:13:26,360
Speaker 2: Public Safety Committee. The first voice you'll hear is Reggie

259
00:13:26,400 --> 00:13:30,079
Speaker 2: Jones Sawyer, the State Assembly member from Los Angeles, announcing that,

260
00:13:30,160 --> 00:13:32,320
Speaker 2: and then you'll hear the crowd react. Many of them

261
00:13:32,320 --> 00:13:36,439
Speaker 2: are victims of sex trafficking, saying things like awful, terrible.

262
00:13:36,360 --> 00:13:40,319
Speaker 1: Yeah, there, These are many of our women who had

263
00:13:40,360 --> 00:13:43,760
Speaker 1: to endure being sexually well, had to endure being raped

264
00:13:44,120 --> 00:13:48,360
Speaker 1: by multiple men every night, when they were little children. Right,

265
00:13:48,960 --> 00:13:52,120
Speaker 1: and so that's why there's such a reaction. Sorry about that,

266
00:13:52,160 --> 00:13:56,760
Speaker 1: go that bill fails. Reconservations granted unanissly, thank you, sir,

267
00:14:00,600 --> 00:14:16,040
Speaker 1: coward God. And Reggie Jones Sawyer giggling as some of

268
00:14:16,080 --> 00:14:23,160
Speaker 1: these sex abuse of victims shouted him. These are women

269
00:14:23,160 --> 00:14:26,000
Speaker 1: who got raped when they were little children, repeatedly, every night,

270
00:14:26,160 --> 00:14:30,000
Speaker 1: every single night, after being sold by some beast that

271
00:14:30,120 --> 00:14:33,360
Speaker 1: Reggie Jones Sawyer is protecting democrat here in Los Angeles.

272
00:14:34,160 --> 00:14:36,080
Speaker 2: This should be a wake up call for people to

273
00:14:36,160 --> 00:14:38,880
Speaker 2: understand what's really going on in Sacramento with the laws

274
00:14:38,960 --> 00:14:42,800
Speaker 2: concerning criminals. There's a columnist for the San Francisco Chronicle.

275
00:14:42,800 --> 00:14:45,520
Speaker 2: I think we've made fun of her once, Emily Hoe

276
00:14:45,600 --> 00:14:48,960
Speaker 2: even I forget why she did some columnaut I thought

277
00:14:49,000 --> 00:14:51,360
Speaker 2: she was part of the progressive left, but she said

278
00:14:51,400 --> 00:14:55,760
Speaker 2: she couldn't even believe this. The most egregious example came

279
00:14:55,800 --> 00:14:58,200
Speaker 2: when Democrats in some of the Public Safety Committee killed

280
00:14:58,200 --> 00:15:00,680
Speaker 2: a bill that would have classified human trafficking of miners

281
00:15:00,840 --> 00:15:04,320
Speaker 2: as a serious felony. And she goes on to say

282
00:15:04,680 --> 00:15:07,240
Speaker 2: the notion that it isn't a serious crime to traffic

283
00:15:07,320 --> 00:15:10,120
Speaker 2: children for sex or labor is so absurd as to

284
00:15:10,160 --> 00:15:12,600
Speaker 2: be laughable. It wasn't for the gravity of the situation.

285
00:15:13,640 --> 00:15:16,720
Speaker 2: Thousands of Californians are forced into various forms of human

286
00:15:16,760 --> 00:15:22,200
Speaker 2: trafficking every year, and they are disproportionately young, female, and black,

287
00:15:22,560 --> 00:15:25,560
Speaker 2: according to a twenty twenty report from the Little Hoover Commission.

288
00:15:25,640 --> 00:15:31,560
Speaker 1: So that's what's fascinating about this, because these progressive Democrats

289
00:15:31,600 --> 00:15:37,760
Speaker 1: claim to represent and want to protect women, children, black

290
00:15:37,880 --> 00:15:41,960
Speaker 1: and Hispanic women and children, and yet these are the

291
00:15:42,080 --> 00:15:48,120
Speaker 1: women and children being fed into this disgusting, soul destroying

292
00:15:48,600 --> 00:15:52,200
Speaker 1: sex machine where they get repeatedly raped night after night

293
00:15:53,040 --> 00:15:58,840
Speaker 1: when they're seven, seven years old. And that's who Reggie

294
00:15:58,880 --> 00:16:03,200
Speaker 1: Jones Sawyer, protecting the type of guy who would do

295
00:16:03,360 --> 00:16:04,840
Speaker 1: that to a seven year old girl.

296
00:16:05,680 --> 00:16:08,720
Speaker 2: So here by way of explanation, and she points out

297
00:16:08,720 --> 00:16:11,800
Speaker 2: how absurd this is. The committee chairperson, assembly Member Reggie

298
00:16:11,840 --> 00:16:15,000
Speaker 2: Jones Sawyer, that's the giggler you just heard, noted that

299
00:16:15,080 --> 00:16:18,320
Speaker 2: human trafficking can already result in lengthy sentences and can

300
00:16:18,400 --> 00:16:21,720
Speaker 2: be classified as serious crime under certain conditions like great

301
00:16:21,720 --> 00:16:25,720
Speaker 2: bodily injury being inflicted on a victim. Well, she writes

302
00:16:25,760 --> 00:16:28,200
Speaker 2: this reasoning child trafficking should only be considered serious if

303
00:16:28,200 --> 00:16:33,200
Speaker 2: the victim endorse additional horrifying circumstances on top of being trafficked.

304
00:16:33,720 --> 00:16:36,480
Speaker 2: Illustrates how far some Democrats are willing to go to

305
00:16:36,640 --> 00:16:40,080
Speaker 2: uphold ideological principles that, when carried to the logical extreme,

306
00:16:40,480 --> 00:16:44,240
Speaker 2: are no longer morally defensible. That's a nice way of saying,

307
00:16:44,280 --> 00:16:46,160
Speaker 2: this guy has got to be kidding me. This guy

308
00:16:46,200 --> 00:16:46,640
Speaker 2: has to go.

309
00:16:47,000 --> 00:16:51,040
Speaker 1: He's insane, and he's dangerous, he's sick. These are sick ducks.

310
00:16:51,080 --> 00:16:53,960
Speaker 2: Here, she writes, many Democrats are now worry of increasing

311
00:16:54,000 --> 00:16:58,640
Speaker 2: penalties for any crime, even the most egregious. This has

312
00:16:58,680 --> 00:17:02,080
Speaker 2: resulted in stances on our impossible to justify. She's right.

313
00:17:03,200 --> 00:17:05,240
Speaker 2: And finally, this was a dividing line among at least

314
00:17:05,280 --> 00:17:07,480
Speaker 2: some of the party who said, come on, you've got

315
00:17:07,480 --> 00:17:08,080
Speaker 2: to be kidding me.

316
00:17:08,480 --> 00:17:12,200
Speaker 1: Well, I mean, they got I think there's twenty eight

317
00:17:12,200 --> 00:17:18,359
Speaker 1: Democrats in the Senate or thirty, and all of them

318
00:17:18,560 --> 00:17:20,639
Speaker 1: voted for the bill. All of them did. It was

319
00:17:20,680 --> 00:17:23,240
Speaker 1: a forty to nothing vote.

320
00:17:23,560 --> 00:17:26,760
Speaker 2: I know, but you thought some of them voted in

321
00:17:26,840 --> 00:17:29,320
Speaker 2: knowing that the Assembly Public Safetymmitty would kill his bill.

322
00:17:29,440 --> 00:17:31,400
Speaker 1: I do think so. They had their cover. I do,

323
00:17:31,560 --> 00:17:34,720
Speaker 1: because why wouldn't the leadership then put on the Public

324
00:17:34,720 --> 00:17:39,720
Speaker 1: Safety Committee some of the Democrats who aren't sick and insane,

325
00:17:40,080 --> 00:17:43,600
Speaker 1: some of the Democrats who who want to stop seven

326
00:17:43,720 --> 00:17:47,159
Speaker 1: year olds from getting repeatedly raped every day of their childhood.

327
00:17:47,440 --> 00:17:50,880
Speaker 1: But why aren't those people on the Assembly Public Safety Committee?

328
00:17:50,880 --> 00:17:54,320
Speaker 1: You know, that'd be a little diversity. I also want

329
00:17:54,359 --> 00:17:57,480
Speaker 1: to point out another guy because he is local, Isaac Bryan.

330
00:17:58,560 --> 00:17:59,960
Speaker 2: Yeah, he voted. He didn't vote either.

331
00:18:00,600 --> 00:18:03,480
Speaker 1: He voted to block this twice. He is from La

332
00:18:03,880 --> 00:18:06,800
Speaker 1: oh yeah, and on the west side. No less so

333
00:18:07,080 --> 00:18:09,119
Speaker 1: people on the west side, I don't think any of

334
00:18:09,160 --> 00:18:13,760
Speaker 1: you would like your daughters to be sold into sex slavery,

335
00:18:14,760 --> 00:18:18,159
Speaker 1: bar Vista, Culver City. In fact, his home office is

336
00:18:18,200 --> 00:18:22,879
Speaker 1: in Culver City, Century City, the mid Wiltshire Mid City

337
00:18:22,960 --> 00:18:28,840
Speaker 1: District the West Adams and Ladera Heights District. This district

338
00:18:28,960 --> 00:18:33,600
Speaker 1: runs along the borders of Santa Monica and Beverly Hills,

339
00:18:33,680 --> 00:18:37,760
Speaker 1: just south of Westwood and Brentwood and Santa Monica. This

340
00:18:37,800 --> 00:18:43,200
Speaker 1: is Isaac Bryan and he voted twice to block this bill.

341
00:18:45,440 --> 00:18:48,680
Speaker 1: What kind of a sicko is here on the west

342
00:18:48,680 --> 00:18:51,000
Speaker 1: side of LA You always think the sex perverts are

343
00:18:51,040 --> 00:18:53,680
Speaker 1: in San Francisco, right, because that's where a lot of

344
00:18:53,720 --> 00:18:57,600
Speaker 1: the sex pervate legislation comes from. But no, we've got

345
00:18:57,600 --> 00:19:00,800
Speaker 1: two guys here in Los Angeles, one on the south

346
00:19:00,880 --> 00:19:03,960
Speaker 1: side Reggie Jones Sawyer and one on the west side,

347
00:19:04,240 --> 00:19:08,600
Speaker 1: Isaac Bryan Sick, Sick, dangerous.

348
00:19:10,119 --> 00:19:12,800
Speaker 2: Well, there may be more on this during this hour tomorrow.

349
00:19:12,920 --> 00:19:14,960
Speaker 2: In addition to the moistline, we have something else called

350
00:19:15,000 --> 00:19:18,120
Speaker 2: hacket a dumpster when we return. Of course, the big

351
00:19:18,160 --> 00:19:21,520
Speaker 2: story in southern Californian, pretty much around the country is

352
00:19:21,560 --> 00:19:24,160
Speaker 2: the strike that actors have now joined. They they joined

364
00:19:56,680 --> 00:19:59,040
Speaker 2: southern California and all over the country. Is that the

365
00:19:59,119 --> 00:20:03,600
Speaker 2: Hollywood Actors sag AFTER has voted to strike. They will

366
00:20:03,680 --> 00:20:07,800
Speaker 2: join the writers after midnight. We're going to get the

367

Speaker 2: full story now from KFI news reporter Chris Adler, who's

368
00:20:10,960 --> 00:20:13,720
Speaker 2: been covering this since the writers went on strike, and

369
00:20:13,760 --> 00:20:16,080
Speaker 2: now we'll have the actors joining the picket lines. Let's

370
00:20:16,240 --> 00:20:16,920
Speaker 2: find out more.

371
00:20:17,800 --> 00:20:20,240
Speaker 6: Hey guys, Hey guys, John and Ken, what have you

372
00:20:20,280 --> 00:20:23,520
Speaker 6: guys got for me today? I've got another strike for

373
00:20:23,600 --> 00:20:27,520
Speaker 6: you guys, And we're talking over one hundred and sixty

374
00:20:27,640 --> 00:20:30,240
Speaker 6: thousand actors that are set to hit the picket lines

375
00:20:30,640 --> 00:20:34,399
Speaker 6: after midnight, this early this or early in the morning.

376
00:20:35,080 --> 00:20:37,320
Speaker 7: And I do want to mention that fran.

377
00:20:37,200 --> 00:20:39,920
Speaker 6: Dresher, who is the president of sag AFTER, said today

378
00:20:40,200 --> 00:20:44,359
Speaker 6: that the union is still willing to talk to production companies.

379
00:20:44,560 --> 00:20:47,680
Speaker 6: There's you know, there's some hours between now and midnight,

380
00:20:47,880 --> 00:20:49,840
Speaker 6: and if they can come to an agreement, they will

381
00:20:49,920 --> 00:20:53,720
Speaker 6: halt the strike. But the likelihood of that is probably

382
00:20:53,880 --> 00:20:56,920
Speaker 6: very low, she says, but they are willing to keep

383
00:20:57,040 --> 00:20:59,840
Speaker 6: talks open to avoid the strike. And she says they

384
00:21:00,080 --> 00:21:02,800
Speaker 6: tried to avoid the strike at all costs, but it's

385
00:21:02,840 --> 00:21:06,439
Speaker 6: an emergency, she says, and there was no other option.

386
00:21:06,600 --> 00:21:11,879
Speaker 1: You guys, I saw that. They she said, they're really

387
00:21:11,920 --> 00:21:12,880
Speaker 1: far apart.

388
00:21:13,840 --> 00:21:16,879
Speaker 6: Yeah, well, they won't go into specifics, but she says

389
00:21:17,320 --> 00:21:21,520
Speaker 6: they're being disrespected. The union is being disrespected by production companies.

390
00:21:21,840 --> 00:21:27,280
Speaker 6: They are stonewalling them on some areas and just completely

391
00:21:27,320 --> 00:21:31,439
Speaker 6: ignoring some areas and being very vague in certain in

392
00:21:31,520 --> 00:21:35,119
Speaker 6: other areas, and so they're not getting the talks, like

393
00:21:35,160 --> 00:21:37,520
Speaker 6: you said, are very far apart, but they won't go

394
00:21:37,600 --> 00:21:38,600
Speaker 6: into specifics.

395
00:21:38,800 --> 00:21:39,720
Speaker 7: What they do want.

396
00:21:39,960 --> 00:21:43,480
Speaker 6: They want pay increases, they want residuals, and they want

397
00:21:43,560 --> 00:21:48,400
Speaker 6: assurances that they will be protected against artificial intelligence, which

398
00:21:48,520 --> 00:21:51,280
Speaker 6: is very similar to what the Writer's Guild is asking for.

399
00:21:52,400 --> 00:21:55,720
Speaker 1: I saw one story about the Writer's Guild strike that

400
00:21:56,800 --> 00:21:59,959
Speaker 1: the studios you're talking about, they're not even gonna disguise

401
00:22:00,040 --> 00:22:03,240
Speaker 1: said anything till maybe October. They want to starve the

402
00:22:03,240 --> 00:22:06,720
Speaker 1: writers out until they're out of money, they can't pay

403
00:22:06,760 --> 00:22:09,960
Speaker 1: their rent, their mortgage, for food, and then they'll sit

404
00:22:10,000 --> 00:22:12,879
Speaker 1: down and talk like what you're saying is is a

405
00:22:12,920 --> 00:22:15,840
Speaker 1: purposeful strategy to be vague and to be evasive.

406
00:22:16,920 --> 00:22:23,239
Speaker 6: It seems that that is their approach here. According to

407
00:22:23,480 --> 00:22:26,760
Speaker 6: the union, the writers that I've spoken with when I

408
00:22:26,760 --> 00:22:28,480
Speaker 6: was covering the strike. I was covering the strike in

409
00:22:28,520 --> 00:22:31,680
Speaker 6: May with the Writers Guild. They said, they're already struggling.

410
00:22:31,720 --> 00:22:32,840
Speaker 6: And I asked him, I said.

411
00:22:32,680 --> 00:22:34,560
Speaker 7: Well, how long are you willing to take this?

412
00:22:34,880 --> 00:22:37,280
Speaker 6: They said, We'll go as far as we have to

413
00:22:37,320 --> 00:22:41,159
Speaker 6: go because we're already suffering. We already can't pay our bills.

414
00:22:41,480 --> 00:22:43,240
Speaker 6: It's they're like, you know, what do we have to

415
00:22:43,320 --> 00:22:47,119
Speaker 6: lose at this point? And the production company said in

416
00:22:47,160 --> 00:22:51,520
Speaker 6: a statement that they offered SAG after a historical offer,

417
00:22:51,760 --> 00:22:55,119
Speaker 6: claiming union members walked away from the bargaining table. And

418
00:22:55,160 --> 00:22:58,560
Speaker 6: today I asked Fran Dresher if that offer was in

419
00:22:58,600 --> 00:23:02,800
Speaker 6: fact historical, says, what was historical was how egregiously the

420
00:23:02,840 --> 00:23:04,679
Speaker 6: production companies treated the union.

421
00:23:05,040 --> 00:23:11,720
Speaker 8: Streaming and AI and digital is so prevalent in the industry.

422
00:23:12,000 --> 00:23:16,520
Speaker 8: It is disemboweled the industry that we once knew when

423
00:23:16,560 --> 00:23:19,800
Speaker 8: I do did the Nanny, and everybody was part of

424
00:23:19,840 --> 00:23:24,920
Speaker 8: the gravy train. Now it's a wolled in vacuum.

425
00:23:24,720 --> 00:23:25,680
Speaker 7: In you guys.

426
00:23:25,760 --> 00:23:28,639
Speaker 6: She says today that when she was part of the Nanny,

427
00:23:28,680 --> 00:23:32,320
Speaker 6: everybody got to cut. Everybody got a cut of the deal,

428
00:23:32,640 --> 00:23:36,080
Speaker 6: but she says times are changing. There's online streaming, there's

429
00:23:36,200 --> 00:23:39,840
Speaker 6: artificial intelligence, and that the production companies are not paying

430
00:23:39,920 --> 00:23:44,480
Speaker 6: them to they're not moving forward in alignment with these platforms.

431
00:23:44,680 --> 00:23:47,440
Speaker 6: And that's the big that is a big focal point

432
00:23:47,480 --> 00:23:50,320
Speaker 6: is this artificial intelligence. That a lot of these writers

433
00:23:50,320 --> 00:23:52,920
Speaker 6: and actors are worried that, you know, these streaming services

434
00:23:52,920 --> 00:23:56,120
Speaker 6: and these platforms are going to take away their jobs,

435
00:23:56,160 --> 00:23:58,600
Speaker 6: take away from the craft and the art, you guys.

436
00:23:59,320 --> 00:24:01,680
Speaker 2: So, and this is more than just the actors, because

437
00:24:01,720 --> 00:24:03,639
Speaker 2: that will get all the attention, especially some of the

438
00:24:03,640 --> 00:24:05,720
Speaker 2: big names that are participating in this. But there's so

439
00:24:05,720 --> 00:24:09,040
Speaker 2: many other workers, I guess in this union right there.

440
00:24:08,880 --> 00:24:10,040
Speaker 7: Are and there are workers.

441
00:24:10,080 --> 00:24:13,119
Speaker 6: There are workers who are going to be directly impacted

442
00:24:13,160 --> 00:24:17,359
Speaker 6: by this who support the actors. We're talking makeup artists

443
00:24:17,400 --> 00:24:21,560
Speaker 6: and the trailer workers and different people that surround just

444
00:24:21,600 --> 00:24:22,920
Speaker 6: the actors themselves.

445
00:24:23,200 --> 00:24:25,080
Speaker 7: And fran Dresher made she.

446
00:24:25,119 --> 00:24:27,720
Speaker 6: Wanted to make it clear that yes, there there will

447
00:24:27,760 --> 00:24:30,720
Speaker 6: be thousands of people impacted by this, but we really

448
00:24:30,800 --> 00:24:32,560
Speaker 6: don't have another choice.

449
00:24:32,720 --> 00:24:34,720
Speaker 7: We have to do what's best for our.

450
00:24:34,680 --> 00:24:36,800
Speaker 6: Union and for the livelihood of the union.

451
00:24:38,000 --> 00:24:40,359
Speaker 2: Yeah, So basically, what she's saying, I'll just pick a

452
00:24:40,359 --> 00:24:43,480
Speaker 2: streaming show at random succession, which I guess HBO Streams

453
00:24:43,520 --> 00:24:46,680
Speaker 2: and HBO Max. It's called Max. Now, I mean she's saying,

454
00:24:46,680 --> 00:24:48,560
Speaker 2: I mean, how are the people on that show paid?

455
00:24:48,600 --> 00:24:50,680
Speaker 2: I don't even know how that works anymore with streaming

456
00:24:50,680 --> 00:24:55,119
Speaker 2: shows versus you know, the traditional model we saw with

457
00:24:55,160 --> 00:24:58,280
Speaker 2: a sitcom like The Nanny, where the actors negotiate per

458
00:24:58,280 --> 00:25:01,160
Speaker 2: episode and stuff like that. They're saying that, well, maybe

459
00:25:01,200 --> 00:25:02,919
Speaker 2: the actors are paid, but all the other people that

460
00:25:02,960 --> 00:25:05,080
Speaker 2: work on the productions don't make enough off of the streaming.

461
00:25:05,320 --> 00:25:07,920
Speaker 2: And the other thing I think is the residuals, because

462
00:25:07,960 --> 00:25:09,760
Speaker 2: these shows continue to pay long into the.

463
00:25:09,680 --> 00:25:13,280
Speaker 6: Future, right, And they say that the residuals is really

464
00:25:13,280 --> 00:25:16,960
Speaker 6: what they survive off of, and that Netflix and Amazon

465
00:25:17,040 --> 00:25:20,000
Speaker 6: Prime and they're strung. They're streaming these movies and these

466
00:25:20,040 --> 00:25:23,200
Speaker 6: shows that are gaining all of these royalties, but they're

467
00:25:23,240 --> 00:25:26,040
Speaker 6: not getting enough of them. They're not getting enough to

468
00:25:26,080 --> 00:25:28,760
Speaker 6: survive off of. And they say when they make a show,

469
00:25:28,760 --> 00:25:30,879
Speaker 6: and they do a show, they get a base pay,

470
00:25:31,200 --> 00:25:33,960
Speaker 6: but the residuals are what they really is their bread

471
00:25:33,960 --> 00:25:36,440
Speaker 6: and butter and what they live off of. And they're

472
00:25:36,480 --> 00:25:39,200
Speaker 6: not getting those residuals and they need them now more

473
00:25:39,240 --> 00:25:39,960
Speaker 6: so than ever.

474
00:25:40,600 --> 00:25:43,760
Speaker 2: So what will people listening right now who watch streaming

475
00:25:43,760 --> 00:25:46,640
Speaker 2: shows and stuff, will they notice a change anytime soon

476
00:25:46,720 --> 00:25:47,720
Speaker 2: with the strike.

477
00:25:48,520 --> 00:25:52,239
Speaker 6: Well, you know, the actors will be if so, if

478
00:25:52,280 --> 00:25:55,119
Speaker 6: Meryl Streep is in a trailer and she's filming on

479
00:25:55,200 --> 00:25:58,480
Speaker 6: set today, she's gonna shut down. She's gonna walk away,

480
00:25:58,560 --> 00:26:00,679
Speaker 6: and everything is going to shut down. So all of

481
00:26:00,720 --> 00:26:04,720
Speaker 6: the productions, movie productions and TV show productions, you know,

482
00:26:04,760 --> 00:26:08,000
Speaker 6: they've already been The TV shows have already been stopped

483
00:26:08,040 --> 00:26:10,639
Speaker 6: because of the writers and the writers you know, the

484
00:26:10,680 --> 00:26:13,080
Speaker 6: actors say, well, without the writers, we don't have a show.

485
00:26:13,440 --> 00:26:16,200
Speaker 6: So they've kind of had a leg broken there anyway.

486
00:26:16,240 --> 00:26:19,040
Speaker 7: But now movies will stop production.

487
00:26:19,400 --> 00:26:21,919
Speaker 6: And what they're saying is, you know, just like we

488
00:26:21,960 --> 00:26:24,359
Speaker 6: saw with the writers strike, there were some reserves in

489
00:26:24,760 --> 00:26:27,199
Speaker 6: that they had backlogged that they were able to go

490
00:26:27,280 --> 00:26:29,159
Speaker 6: in and edit and put some shows out there, so

491
00:26:29,200 --> 00:26:32,280
Speaker 6: you won't immediately feel anything. But with the movies, you know,

492
00:26:32,320 --> 00:26:36,000
Speaker 6: they're immediately stopping. And so this will delay any blockbusters

493
00:26:36,000 --> 00:26:39,000
Speaker 6: that were set to come out this fall and then

494
00:26:39,080 --> 00:26:40,400
Speaker 6: also going into next year.

495
00:26:41,080 --> 00:26:42,879
Speaker 2: Okay, Chris, thank you very much for that report.

519
00:27:41,880 --> 00:27:44,040
Speaker 2: And I want to make this clear. I had older sisters,

520

527
00:28:05,720 --> 00:28:08,040

00:28:21,080 --> 00:28:23,280
Speaker 2: John already announced he doesn't watch movies anymore.

535
00:28:23,320 --> 00:28:26,320
Speaker 1: So, yeah, I've only gone to one in the last

536
00:28:26,359 --> 00:28:27,800
Speaker 1: four years, and that was an accident.

537
00:28:29,119 --> 00:28:32,720
Speaker 2: KFI six forty life everywhere the iHeartRadio app.

538
00:28:33,400 --> 00:28:36,760

539
00:28:37,000 --> 00:28:37,920
Speaker 5: AM six forty.

540
00:28:41,440 --> 00:28:44,520
Speaker 2: Well, you know lost in all this. Some of the

541
00:28:44,560 --> 00:28:47,320
Speaker 2: fast food workers when on strike today to protest their

542
00:28:47,360 --> 00:28:51,880
Speaker 2: low wages, but the actors and the writers more coverage

543
00:28:51,920 --> 00:28:54,800
Speaker 2: for their job action. So it's just a one day

544
00:28:54,840 --> 00:28:56,760
Speaker 2: thing that they're trying to once again say you're not

545
00:28:56,800 --> 00:29:02,000
Speaker 2: paying us enough to flip Burger's another story that made

546
00:29:02,000 --> 00:29:03,520
Speaker 2: the news today. We just have a chance to get

547
00:29:03,560 --> 00:29:05,720
Speaker 2: to at the end of the show. Remember the cocaine

548
00:29:05,760 --> 00:29:06,680
Speaker 2: found at the White House.

549
00:29:07,960 --> 00:29:11,720
Speaker 1: Yes, they decided they're not going to prosecute Hunter Biden.

550
00:29:12,520 --> 00:29:15,320
Speaker 2: They what was that you have that story? I just

551
00:29:15,400 --> 00:29:18,000
Speaker 2: had that they concluded the investigation of no suspects.

552
00:29:19,080 --> 00:29:26,000
Speaker 1: Well, same thing, isn't it. Uh, it's got what of

553
00:29:26,080 --> 00:29:28,280
Speaker 1: the odds if it was Hunter Biden that they'd be

554
00:29:28,320 --> 00:29:30,520
Speaker 1: doing a prosecution, that we'd hear anything about it?

555
00:29:31,120 --> 00:29:36,440
Speaker 2: What? Why would Hunter Biden leave a bag of cocaine

556
00:29:36,480 --> 00:29:37,800
Speaker 2: in like a little inbox.

557
00:29:38,360 --> 00:29:41,760
Speaker 1: Maybe some somebody left it for him. Oh, it was

558
00:29:41,760 --> 00:29:45,480
Speaker 1: like a delivery like Uber eats. It was Uber.

559
00:29:45,280 --> 00:29:50,240
Speaker 2: Snorts Ober Sorts. They come and deliver the drugs right

560
00:29:50,280 --> 00:29:54,600
Speaker 2: to their Dora. Roughly one gram of cocaine was found

561
00:29:54,680 --> 00:29:58,719
Speaker 2: July second by a Secret Service agent in a storage

562
00:29:58,760 --> 00:30:01,400
Speaker 2: locker inside the West Wing Executive.

563
00:30:01,040 --> 00:30:02,280
Speaker 1: Entrance storage locker.

564
00:30:03,080 --> 00:30:05,800
Speaker 2: No cameras were in position to capture that football. Oh,

565
00:30:05,840 --> 00:30:10,040
Speaker 2: isn't that shocking, one hundred and lockers, like the cameras

566
00:30:10,040 --> 00:30:14,720
Speaker 2: weren't working with Jeffrey Epstein was murdered. Yeah, I know.

567
00:30:14,800 --> 00:30:17,200
Speaker 1: The cameras are always not working. They're never pointed in

568
00:30:17,240 --> 00:30:19,080
Speaker 1: the right place. How was that?

569
00:30:19,600 --> 00:30:22,360
Speaker 2: The vesta bule is located by the basement entrance to

570
00:30:22,440 --> 00:30:24,960
Speaker 2: the West Wing, one floor below the Oval office and

571
00:30:25,000 --> 00:30:29,160
Speaker 2: steps from the situation room. But they believe that there

572
00:30:29,160 --> 00:30:32,400
Speaker 2: could have been hundreds of people that went through there.

573
00:30:32,560 --> 00:30:34,360
Speaker 1: Is that true or is that their cover story?

574
00:30:35,000 --> 00:30:39,320
Speaker 2: Oh, your friend from Marjorie Taylor Green? Why didn't they

575
00:30:39,400 --> 00:30:42,320
Speaker 2: drug test all five hundred potential subspect.

576
00:30:44,440 --> 00:30:45,000
Speaker 1: On the way in?

577
00:30:46,280 --> 00:30:48,600
Speaker 2: No, to find the five hundred people that were there

578
00:30:48,640 --> 00:30:50,160
Speaker 2: that day, it has to be in the White House.

579
00:30:50,160 --> 00:30:53,120
Speaker 2: You have to sign or be cleared by security. Tough

580
00:30:53,160 --> 00:30:55,480
Speaker 2: doing a drug test on SIS To drug test all

581
00:30:55,520 --> 00:30:58,120
Speaker 2: of them to see if they had you'd have to

582
00:30:58,120 --> 00:31:00,320
Speaker 2: do a blood test right to pick up the co came,

583
00:31:00,800 --> 00:31:01,800
Speaker 2: I yeah, you would.

584
00:31:01,960 --> 00:31:02,200
Speaker 1: Yeah.

585
00:31:02,280 --> 00:31:06,120
Speaker 2: The Secret Service says they've had no physical evidence, so

586
00:31:06,440 --> 00:31:09,920
Speaker 2: the investigation hit a dead end. No, they weren't fingerprints,

587
00:31:09,960 --> 00:31:10,640
Speaker 2: It was nothing.

588
00:31:12,120 --> 00:31:14,560
Speaker 1: Well, okay, if that's what they want to say, that's

589
00:31:14,600 --> 00:31:15,200
Speaker 1: their story.

590
00:31:16,240 --> 00:31:19,000
Speaker 2: President Biden's staff is subject to routine drug tests, but

591
00:31:19,040 --> 00:31:22,320
Speaker 2: White House visitors, including those given West Wing tours by

592
00:31:22,360 --> 00:31:23,520
Speaker 2: invitation only, are.

593
00:31:23,400 --> 00:31:27,840
Speaker 1: Not, of course, like they were like, if they could

594
00:31:27,880 --> 00:31:30,280
Speaker 1: prove it was Hit, it was Hunter, like they were

595
00:31:30,320 --> 00:31:34,120
Speaker 1: gonna have a press conference and and and hang them

596
00:31:34,120 --> 00:31:36,400
Speaker 1: out to dry, right, that absolutely would happen.

597
00:31:36,760 --> 00:31:38,600
Speaker 2: So again, they found this on a Sunday night, and

598
00:31:38,680 --> 00:31:41,240
Speaker 2: Hunter Biden was there Friday, and he went off with

599
00:31:41,320 --> 00:31:44,600
Speaker 2: Biden to his with his dad, to Camp David. So

600
00:31:44,680 --> 00:31:47,160
Speaker 2: that's why everyone really jumped on that, because Hunter was

601
00:31:47,200 --> 00:31:47,920
Speaker 2: in the vicinity.

602
00:31:48,640 --> 00:31:54,360
Speaker 1: Yeah, well, I mean I've seen all the laptop photos. Shit,

603
00:31:54,600 --> 00:31:56,880
