You're seeing 14 00:00:37,560 --> 00:00:41,200 Speaker 1: it in the streets every time you pass a gas station. 15 00:00:41,920 --> 00:00:45,880 Speaker 1: The price of gas, the average in California for regular 16 00:00:46,080 --> 00:00:49,480 Speaker 1: is five twenty nine, although the station down the block 17 00:00:49,560 --> 00:00:52,120 Speaker 1: right before you get on the one thirty four that's 18 00:00:52,159 --> 00:00:56,280 Speaker 1: at five seventy nine unless you pay in cash. But 19 00:00:56,320 --> 00:00:58,640 Speaker 1: you'd have to go to an ATM and withdraw the 20 00:00:58,680 --> 00:01:00,920 Speaker 1: cash to pay in cash, because nobody carries around that 21 00:01:01,000 --> 00:01:04,559 Speaker 1: much money for a tank full of gas. In fact, 22 00:01:04,760 --> 00:01:08,560 Speaker 1: I went for a tank full of gas about a 23 00:01:08,600 --> 00:01:11,880 Speaker 1: week ago, and uh, it didn't fill up all the 24 00:01:11,920 --> 00:01:13,760 Speaker 1: way because it hit one hundred dollars limit. 25 00:01:14,880 --> 00:01:18,680 Speaker 2: Now, if you're going to charge five seventy nine a gallon. 26 00:01:18,440 --> 00:01:21,240 Speaker 1: The least you could do is lift the automatic limit 27 00:01:21,280 --> 00:01:24,080 Speaker 1: on the gas pump because it hits one hundred dollars, 28 00:01:24,160 --> 00:01:27,080 Speaker 1: and then it stops and you got to pull the 29 00:01:27,160 --> 00:01:30,200 Speaker 1: nozzle out, put it back on, get your credit card out, 30 00:01:30,400 --> 00:01:32,840 Speaker 1: slide it back into the machine, and restart it to 31 00:01:32,840 --> 00:01:35,360 Speaker 1: get the last you know, ten or twelve dollars whatever, 32 00:01:35,560 --> 00:01:36,240 Speaker 1: whatever you need. 33 00:01:36,360 --> 00:01:38,759 Speaker 2: Maybe you need a new car with a smaller gas tank. 34 00:01:40,040 --> 00:01:42,600 Speaker 1: No, I need bigger gas tank. Oh yeah that Oh 35 00:01:42,640 --> 00:01:46,560 Speaker 1: I see, you're right, you're right, yeah, yeah, sixteen gallon tank. 36 00:01:46,640 --> 00:01:49,600 Speaker 1: I might be able to get under a hundred dollars. Yes, yes, 37 00:01:49,680 --> 00:01:50,120 Speaker 1: that's you. 38 00:01:50,120 --> 00:01:50,520 Speaker 2: You're right. 39 00:01:52,080 --> 00:01:54,320 Speaker 1: I'm very confused, right, there are too many numbers there, 40 00:01:54,320 --> 00:01:56,880 Speaker 1: and I lost my mind. But you are right, and 41 00:01:57,000 --> 00:02:01,520 Speaker 1: you're always right. Now, California is five twenty nine h 42 00:02:01,920 --> 00:02:04,440 Speaker 1: and let's take a tour around the country just for starters, 43 00:02:04,440 --> 00:02:06,560 Speaker 1: and then I've got some serious stuff to get into 44 00:02:07,440 --> 00:02:11,000 Speaker 1: the uh. You know, Kansas is still selling for unther 45 00:02:11,120 --> 00:02:15,200 Speaker 1: three bucks. Kansas is at two ninety six, two ninety six, 46 00:02:15,240 --> 00:02:18,600 Speaker 1: and we're at five twenty nine the average price in 47 00:02:18,639 --> 00:02:24,160 Speaker 1: the country, and this includes the California nonsense three fifty. 48 00:02:23,760 --> 00:02:25,720 Speaker 2: Three a gallon three fifty three. 49 00:02:26,120 --> 00:02:31,040 Speaker 1: We're at five twenty nine and it's supposed to get 50 00:02:31,120 --> 00:02:35,919 Speaker 1: much higher, really soon because the California Air Resources Board, 51 00:02:37,320 --> 00:02:45,840 Speaker 1: they have proposed new regulations to the state's climate change policies, 52 00:02:47,080 --> 00:02:51,680 Speaker 1: and these regulations could raise the price of gas over 53 00:02:51,720 --> 00:02:58,200 Speaker 1: a dollar uh and this would provide restrictions and demands 54 00:02:59,120 --> 00:03:02,800 Speaker 1: on the California refiners, the ones that are left, and 55 00:03:02,840 --> 00:03:07,400 Speaker 1: it would raise the cost of producing gasoline to unprecedented 56 00:03:07,480 --> 00:03:10,440 Speaker 1: high levels. They're already at unprecedented high levels, and now 57 00:03:10,440 --> 00:03:11,480 Speaker 1: they're going to go even higher. 58 00:03:12,600 --> 00:03:13,920 Speaker 2: The California Air. 59 00:03:13,760 --> 00:03:20,000 Speaker 1: Resources Board is the worst agency in America, and by design, 60 00:03:20,800 --> 00:03:26,920 Speaker 1: nobody from the outside can control it. There is no 61 00:03:27,080 --> 00:03:31,640 Speaker 1: direct oversight from the legislature, no direct oversight from the governor. 62 00:03:32,560 --> 00:03:36,520 Speaker 1: And they designed the Resources Board that way so that 63 00:03:36,960 --> 00:03:40,800 Speaker 1: the assemblymen, the state senators, and the governor could say. 64 00:03:40,840 --> 00:03:42,080 Speaker 2: I didn't do it. It wasn't me. 65 00:03:42,280 --> 00:03:47,360 Speaker 1: I didn't raise the price of gas. That's the Air 66 00:03:47,400 --> 00:03:51,440 Speaker 1: Resources Board. You got to go talk to them seriously. 67 00:03:51,480 --> 00:03:54,400 Speaker 1: They did this because then otherwise they'd have to run 68 00:03:54,400 --> 00:03:58,840 Speaker 1: on these decisions. So they put California Air Resources Board 69 00:03:58,920 --> 00:04:04,200 Speaker 1: on an island where they operate by themselves and control 70 00:04:04,240 --> 00:04:08,640 Speaker 1: the oil and gas industry, which then controls the prices 71 00:04:08,680 --> 00:04:15,600 Speaker 1: we pay. Follow that, and now the California Air Resources 72 00:04:15,640 --> 00:04:21,120 Speaker 1: Board is completely out of control. However, it still is 73 00:04:22,400 --> 00:04:26,039 Speaker 1: the Democratic Assembly and State Senate fault. It's still the 74 00:04:26,080 --> 00:04:30,400 Speaker 1: fault of Gavin Newsom. He appointed all these people, all 75 00:04:30,440 --> 00:04:34,960 Speaker 1: of them, every single voting member is appointed by Gavin Newsom, 76 00:04:36,120 --> 00:04:38,640 Speaker 1: and they're doing what he wants, and they're doing what 77 00:04:38,680 --> 00:04:42,080 Speaker 1: the Assembly and the State Senate want. What they wanted 78 00:04:42,120 --> 00:04:44,840 Speaker 1: to do was drive the gas and oil industry out 79 00:04:44,880 --> 00:04:48,920 Speaker 1: of California. They want gas prices to hit eight nine 80 00:04:49,000 --> 00:04:54,480 Speaker 1: ten bucks a gallon. They got emotionally involved with this 81 00:04:54,600 --> 00:05:01,279 Speaker 1: bizarro climate cult. Most of the politicians in the other 82 00:05:01,360 --> 00:05:07,560 Speaker 1: states have awakened from the cult. Most European countries are 83 00:05:07,600 --> 00:05:10,719 Speaker 1: awakening from the cult. And we are the last of 84 00:05:10,760 --> 00:05:16,719 Speaker 1: the diehards. We're fully embracing all the trending nonsense from 85 00:05:16,760 --> 00:05:21,680 Speaker 1: ten to fifteen years ago, and so now the rest 86 00:05:21,680 --> 00:05:23,960 Speaker 1: of the country pays three point fifty. Even during the 87 00:05:24,040 --> 00:05:28,360 Speaker 1: Tyber War they were at five twenty nine and this 88 00:05:28,440 --> 00:05:30,200 Speaker 1: war is going to be over in a matter of weeks, 89 00:05:30,720 --> 00:05:32,760 Speaker 1: and the price of oil will come down, and the 90 00:05:32,760 --> 00:05:37,400 Speaker 1: price of gasoline will come down everywhere but California. Because 91 00:05:37,480 --> 00:05:41,920 Speaker 1: as the price of oil comes down due to the 92 00:05:42,000 --> 00:05:45,560 Speaker 1: end of the Iranian war, these regulations are going to 93 00:05:45,640 --> 00:05:49,360 Speaker 1: kick in and you will never see gasoline in the 94 00:05:49,400 --> 00:05:53,559 Speaker 1: fours ever again. You'll ever see gasoline in the threes 95 00:05:53,680 --> 00:05:57,279 Speaker 1: or the twos ever again, like they see in the 96 00:05:57,279 --> 00:05:59,440 Speaker 1: rest of the country for most of the last year. 97 00:06:01,360 --> 00:06:07,279 Speaker 1: And now now there's a group of California Democrats. See 98 00:06:07,320 --> 00:06:10,960 Speaker 1: if they had the hammer on them, if they felt 99 00:06:11,120 --> 00:06:16,760 Speaker 1: that people really would switch sides and vote differently in November, 100 00:06:17,720 --> 00:06:20,440 Speaker 1: they never would have passed this. They would it never 101 00:06:20,440 --> 00:06:23,240 Speaker 1: would have enabled this. They never would have given the 102 00:06:23,279 --> 00:06:27,800 Speaker 1: California Air Resources Board dictatorial powers. But they thought they 103 00:06:27,839 --> 00:06:32,560 Speaker 1: were untouchable and bulletproof because the idiot voters in this state, 104 00:06:32,640 --> 00:06:35,520 Speaker 1: and there are millions of them, kept voting for these 105 00:06:35,560 --> 00:06:38,360 Speaker 1: guys and these women over and over again, no matter 106 00:06:38,400 --> 00:06:43,040 Speaker 1: how many stupid policies they passed. Of course, most of 107 00:06:43,080 --> 00:06:44,359 Speaker 1: the public doesn't even know about. 108 00:06:44,200 --> 00:06:45,400 Speaker 2: These stupid policies. 109 00:06:45,040 --> 00:06:48,840 Speaker 1: Because they don't pay any attention and you can't get 110 00:06:49,160 --> 00:06:52,720 Speaker 1: much of the media ever to cover it. It's only 111 00:06:52,800 --> 00:06:55,120 Speaker 1: until the gas price hits five p seventy nine that 112 00:06:55,160 --> 00:07:01,240 Speaker 1: the average person goes, ooh, happen here. Most people don't 113 00:07:01,279 --> 00:07:04,880 Speaker 1: travel that much. They don't know that. You know, you 114 00:07:04,920 --> 00:07:08,160 Speaker 1: can go to well, I mean there was up until 115 00:07:08,240 --> 00:07:10,880 Speaker 1: up until a few weeks ago, you can go to 116 00:07:10,960 --> 00:07:14,640 Speaker 1: forty states and by gasoline in the twos People don't 117 00:07:14,680 --> 00:07:17,480 Speaker 1: know that and don't travel to those forty states not 118 00:07:17,560 --> 00:07:19,680 Speaker 1: covered in the media. They don't go looking for it. Right, 119 00:07:19,880 --> 00:07:21,760 Speaker 1: it's always available on the internet, but they don't go. 120 00:07:21,840 --> 00:07:24,600 Speaker 1: And I understand all that, but that's how they get 121 00:07:24,600 --> 00:07:29,040 Speaker 1: away with this. There's no competition for votes. They can 122 00:07:29,080 --> 00:07:30,920 Speaker 1: do what they want. And I heard Dan Walters on 123 00:07:31,000 --> 00:07:34,880 Speaker 1: with with Monks and Maryland a few hours ago. Dan 124 00:07:34,920 --> 00:07:38,480 Speaker 1: Walters has been writing covering California politics for years. He's 125 00:07:38,480 --> 00:07:42,640 Speaker 1: down with cal Matters and he said, what happens is 126 00:07:42,720 --> 00:07:46,760 Speaker 1: they have these special budget bills. They go sweeping through 127 00:07:46,760 --> 00:07:51,040 Speaker 1: the legislature in a matter of hours. They're written up 128 00:07:51,040 --> 00:07:56,960 Speaker 1: on the fly, they passed quickly. Nobody reads them. Nobody 129 00:07:57,000 --> 00:08:01,520 Speaker 1: reads them. And now a group of California Democrats fifteen 130 00:08:01,920 --> 00:08:07,640 Speaker 1: Assembly members have discovered that the California Resources Board has 131 00:08:07,680 --> 00:08:11,760 Speaker 1: this new climate regulation policy that are going to that's 132 00:08:11,760 --> 00:08:13,160 Speaker 1: going to drive the price. 133 00:08:14,760 --> 00:08:16,440 Speaker 2: Way out of whack, way over the moon. 134 00:08:18,480 --> 00:08:21,400 Speaker 1: So the Assembly Democrats sent a letter Monday to the 135 00:08:21,400 --> 00:08:27,800 Speaker 1: California Air Resources Board asking the agency to reconsider. And 136 00:08:29,680 --> 00:08:35,520 Speaker 1: all fifteen of these people voted for these changes. They 137 00:08:35,559 --> 00:08:39,480 Speaker 1: all voted for it, but because they didn't read the bill, 138 00:08:40,520 --> 00:08:44,360 Speaker 1: they never knew what the consequences good would be. And 139 00:08:44,400 --> 00:08:48,400 Speaker 1: now they're dealing with gasoline that I am sure within 140 00:08:48,440 --> 00:08:50,319 Speaker 1: a few days that station down the block here in 141 00:08:50,320 --> 00:08:53,960 Speaker 1: Burbank is going to be at six bucks. But they 142 00:08:54,040 --> 00:08:57,199 Speaker 1: don't read the bills, and they don't have the intellectual 143 00:08:57,240 --> 00:09:04,160 Speaker 1: capacity to understand the bills anyway. And I can't believe 144 00:09:04,200 --> 00:09:07,520 Speaker 1: while the gas prices are now well over five bucks 145 00:09:07,520 --> 00:09:12,480 Speaker 1: a gallon, you don't hear anything from Gavin Newsom, accept 146 00:09:12,559 --> 00:09:19,160 Speaker 1: him going on from one podcast to the next, babbling incoherently. 147 00:09:20,080 --> 00:09:22,160 Speaker 2: As he begins his campaign for president. 148 00:09:23,040 --> 00:09:27,040 Speaker 1: He spends his days talking for hours to podcast hosts, 149 00:09:27,480 --> 00:09:29,320 Speaker 1: making absolutely no sense. 150 00:09:30,360 --> 00:09:36,480 Speaker 2: Meantime, we're at five twenty nine a gallon. 151 00:09:36,640 --> 00:09:40,120 Speaker 1: The proposal they're going to vote on this proposal the 152 00:09:40,160 --> 00:09:44,160 Speaker 1: California Air Resources Board in May, and it's going to 153 00:09:44,240 --> 00:09:47,319 Speaker 1: drive prices up by more than a dollar per gallon. 154 00:09:49,040 --> 00:09:52,040 Speaker 1: And you know how many letters have been sent now 155 00:09:52,440 --> 00:09:56,280 Speaker 1: to the California Air Resources Board and to Gavin Newsom. Well, 156 00:09:56,280 --> 00:09:59,440 Speaker 1: you've got the California Assembly Democrats sending a letter. The 157 00:09:59,520 --> 00:10:04,880 Speaker 1: Nevada Governor Joel Lombardo has sent a letter because Lombardo 158 00:10:05,000 --> 00:10:10,920 Speaker 1: gets its gas from the same system as California, so 159 00:10:11,160 --> 00:10:14,560 Speaker 1: Novada's looking at the same problem. They got a letter 160 00:10:14,600 --> 00:10:18,960 Speaker 1: from Chevron saying, hey, we're gonna close two refineries and 161 00:10:19,000 --> 00:10:21,040 Speaker 1: there's only seven left in the state. Used to be 162 00:10:21,080 --> 00:10:23,800 Speaker 1: forty three, now there's seven. So said Chevron wrote them 163 00:10:23,800 --> 00:10:27,559 Speaker 1: a letter. Marathon Oil wrote them a letter all the 164 00:10:27,600 --> 00:10:30,960 Speaker 1: way from Ohio saying, hey, this is gonna this is 165 00:10:30,960 --> 00:10:34,439 Speaker 1: gonna destroy business. This is gonna destroy the industry in California. 166 00:10:36,000 --> 00:10:38,880 Speaker 1: So you have Chevron, you have Marathon, you have the 167 00:10:38,920 --> 00:10:42,280 Speaker 1: Western Petroleum Association. They wrote a letter. In fact, we're 168 00:10:42,280 --> 00:10:45,200 Speaker 1: gonna have somebody on from the Western Petroleum Association, and 169 00:10:45,200 --> 00:10:49,400 Speaker 1: they're all saying the same thing. These regulations cannot cannot 170 00:10:49,400 --> 00:10:52,520 Speaker 1: be implemented. You've already done a tremendous amount of damage 171 00:10:52,520 --> 00:10:56,120 Speaker 1: to the industry.

It's the CBS News national 220 00:14:03,240 --> 00:14:07,880 Speaker 1: reporter Andres gudieris and he does kind of a formulaic 221 00:14:08,040 --> 00:14:10,760 Speaker 1: story on how the price of gas in California is 222 00:14:10,840 --> 00:14:18,360 Speaker 1: so high and the one thing that matters most every 223 00:14:18,400 --> 00:14:22,160 Speaker 1: day of the year outside the Iranian war this month, 224 00:14:22,400 --> 00:14:25,760 Speaker 1: but one thing that matters most is barely mentioned in 225 00:14:25,800 --> 00:14:26,200 Speaker 1: the story. 226 00:14:26,200 --> 00:14:27,120 Speaker 2: So play cut three. 227 00:14:27,400 --> 00:14:29,600 Speaker 4: Just take a look at the prices on this side. 228 00:14:29,760 --> 00:14:33,680 Speaker 5: Everything is above five dollars, just showing a painful reminder 229 00:14:33,720 --> 00:14:36,160 Speaker 5: of how fast this is all moving. Drivers I spoke 230 00:14:36,240 --> 00:14:39,360 Speaker 5: with tell me that they are paying more, getting less, 231 00:14:39,440 --> 00:14:43,400 Speaker 5: and feel like there is no relief in sight. While 232 00:14:43,480 --> 00:14:45,760 Speaker 5: the rest of the country is paying around three dollars 233 00:14:45,800 --> 00:14:48,200 Speaker 5: and forty five cents for a gallon of gas. Triple 234 00:14:48,240 --> 00:14:51,080 Speaker 5: A says, in California it's more than five bucks, a 235 00:14:51,200 --> 00:14:53,640 Speaker 5: jump up more than fifty cents in just a week. 236 00:14:53,840 --> 00:14:57,040 Speaker 4: I'm paying forty bucks, but that doesn't get me a 237 00:14:57,040 --> 00:14:58,040 Speaker 4: full tank anymore. 238 00:14:58,360 --> 00:15:00,800 Speaker 6: Before the war with Iran, California it was already in 239 00:15:00,840 --> 00:15:02,320 Speaker 6: a tough spot. 240 00:15:01,760 --> 00:15:04,400 Speaker 7: A unique market that is essentially cut off from the 241 00:15:04,440 --> 00:15:05,280 Speaker 7: rest of the country. 242 00:15:06,440 --> 00:15:08,920 Speaker 6: The state has the highest gas tax in the country, 243 00:15:08,920 --> 00:15:12,240 Speaker 6: almost seventy cents a gallon. It also requires a cleaner, 244 00:15:12,320 --> 00:15:14,840 Speaker 6: more expensive fuel blend. What do you think about the 245 00:15:14,880 --> 00:15:15,440 Speaker 6: prices when you. 246 00:15:15,440 --> 00:15:17,560 Speaker 4: First pulled up, Well, the prices are nuts. 247 00:15:17,760 --> 00:15:20,760 Speaker 6: With the permanent shutdown of two major California refineries due 248 00:15:20,800 --> 00:15:24,240 Speaker 6: to high operating costs in other factors, overall capacity will 249 00:15:24,240 --> 00:15:27,800 Speaker 6: be reduced about eighteen percent. If this conflict continues, how 250 00:15:27,880 --> 00:15:29,240 Speaker 6: high could gas prices go. 251 00:15:29,520 --> 00:15:31,640 Speaker 7: Well, it's very difficult to see what the top may 252 00:15:31,680 --> 00:15:35,280 Speaker 7: look like. We could ultimately see prices reaching new records 253 00:15:35,360 --> 00:15:37,840 Speaker 7: if the strait of horm Moves continues to be blocked. 254 00:15:38,040 --> 00:15:40,400 Speaker 6: Some drivers are already changing their habits. 255 00:15:40,600 --> 00:15:41,960 Speaker 1: That's part of the reason why I have my bike 256 00:15:42,000 --> 00:15:43,280 Speaker 1: here is because it's cheaper. 257 00:15:43,080 --> 00:15:46,040 Speaker 4: Now For drivers wondering how much higher prices will get. Well, 258 00:15:46,080 --> 00:15:48,280 Speaker 4: the record here in Los Angeles was set back in 259 00:15:48,360 --> 00:15:51,440 Speaker 4: twenty twenty two, just as Russia's war in Ukraine was 260 00:15:51,440 --> 00:15:54,440 Speaker 4: getting under way. Back then drivers were paying almost six 261 00:15:54,520 --> 00:15:56,280 Speaker 4: dollars and fifty cents a gallon. 262 00:15:57,320 --> 00:15:59,480 Speaker 1: Yeah, that was Andre's guti Aris. You know what he 263 00:15:59,520 --> 00:16:05,800 Speaker 1: didn't mention the excessive regulations from the California Air Resources 264 00:16:05,840 --> 00:16:11,160 Speaker 1: Board that drove all these refineries out of business in California. 265 00:16:11,880 --> 00:16:15,840 Speaker 1: And for the business the refineries that remain, it dramatically 266 00:16:16,160 --> 00:16:18,400 Speaker 1: drives up the price of a gallon. 267 00:16:18,080 --> 00:16:20,560 Speaker 2: Of gas somehow. And this is what I'm saying. 268 00:16:20,720 --> 00:16:24,120 Speaker 1: These national reporters that come into California and they they 269 00:16:24,200 --> 00:16:29,200 Speaker 1: do the obligatory story. Wow, California, it's five dollars a gallon, 270 00:16:29,840 --> 00:16:33,600 Speaker 1: But it's all the climate regulations. It's all the extra taxes. 271 00:16:34,160 --> 00:16:38,840 Speaker 1: There are extra taxes on the oil companies, on the 272 00:16:38,880 --> 00:16:44,480 Speaker 1: gas refiners before it even gets to the pump. And 273 00:16:44,520 --> 00:16:47,480 Speaker 1: they say, well, yes, the special fuel blend, the special 274 00:16:47,600 --> 00:16:51,680 Speaker 1: fuel blend isn't that much out of the five twenty nine. 275 00:16:51,920 --> 00:16:54,400 Speaker 1: It's a lot of it's the regulation. A lot of 276 00:16:54,400 --> 00:16:57,360 Speaker 1: it is the taxes on different components in the industry. 277 00:16:58,360 --> 00:17:00,680 Speaker 1: But they don't mention it, and they don't I'll explain 278 00:17:00,760 --> 00:17:04,920 Speaker 1: it because it's it's it's complicated. But I'll tell you this, 279 00:17:06,560 --> 00:17:11,240 Speaker 1: if newisom was sincere, and he's not. You know, he's 280 00:17:11,240 --> 00:17:14,080 Speaker 1: he's a he's a if it wasn't apolitic, because he'd 281 00:17:14,119 --> 00:17:20,919 Speaker 1: be selling time shares. He was sincere, you know what, 282 00:17:20,960 --> 00:17:24,400 Speaker 1: he'd say, Yeah, we got a war. It'll be over 283 00:17:24,440 --> 00:17:26,920 Speaker 1: in a few weeks. Because that's the truth. It's gonna 284 00:17:26,920 --> 00:17:29,720 Speaker 1: temporarily drive up the price. You know what, at least 285 00:17:29,960 --> 00:17:32,320 Speaker 1: during for the duration of the war. I'm gonna spend 286 00:17:32,440 --> 00:17:36,800 Speaker 1: all the main gas taxes. It's about seventy cents worth. 287 00:17:37,440 --> 00:17:40,200 Speaker 1: He could just suspend those taxes, declare a gas holiday 288 00:17:40,240 --> 00:17:44,840 Speaker 1: executive order, get the legislature to pass it if that's necessary. 289 00:17:45,720 --> 00:17:46,640 Speaker 2: But he doesn't do that. 290 00:17:47,000 --> 00:17:51,119 Speaker 1: He wants the price to be five twenty nine. 291 00:17:51,320 --> 00:17:52,760 Speaker 2: I don't know why. 292 00:17:53,280 --> 00:17:56,280 Speaker 1: He doesn't really believe in it, because he takes private 293 00:17:56,320 --> 00:17:59,600 Speaker 1: planes when he goes on the trip to uh Switzerland, 294 00:17:59,720 --> 00:18:01,879 Speaker 1: or the te to Germany to speak at the Foreign 295 00:18:01,920 --> 00:18:04,919 Speaker 1: policy conference or to speak at the economic forum. 296 00:18:05,000 --> 00:18:07,440 Speaker 2: He takes private place. He doesn't believe in this. 297 00:18:11,000 --> 00:18:13,639 Speaker 1: But if he wanted to give us a big price break, 298 00:18:13,800 --> 00:18:17,160 Speaker 1: he could suspend the gas prices and the price would 299 00:18:17,160 --> 00:18:20,800 Speaker 1: go down seventy cents in a matter of minutes. 300 00:18:21,359 --> 00:18:23,440 Speaker 2: But he doesn't. 301 00:18:24,359 --> 00:18:28,800 Speaker 3: More coming up, you're listening to John Cobels on demand 302 00:18:29,080 --> 00:18:31,000 Speaker 3: from KFI AM six forty. 303 00:18:31,880 --> 00:18:36,679 Speaker 1: There are new statistics, and this is our government for you. 304 00:18:37,520 --> 00:18:42,720 Speaker 1: In Los Angeles County, we are run by five idiots. 305 00:18:43,080 --> 00:18:47,720 Speaker 1: They coincidentally happen to be all women, and there's no 306 00:18:47,800 --> 00:18:51,359 Speaker 1: diversity allowed. There's no male input allowed. I mean, we've 307 00:18:51,359 --> 00:18:54,760 Speaker 1: got a county of ten million people and I imagine 308 00:18:54,800 --> 00:18:59,240 Speaker 1: about five million or mail, but none of them get 309 00:18:59,240 --> 00:19:01,119 Speaker 1: to serve on the LA County board. That's not what 310 00:19:01,160 --> 00:19:04,480 Speaker 1: people vote for. Do guys even vote anymore? Do guys 311 00:19:04,480 --> 00:19:06,879 Speaker 1: even run for office? Or have all the men given 312 00:19:06,960 --> 00:19:07,840 Speaker 1: up in this county? 313 00:19:08,000 --> 00:19:09,160 Speaker 2: I vote? You vote? 314 00:19:09,240 --> 00:19:13,000 Speaker 1: Yeah, I vote too. I wouldn't vote for these people, though, 315 00:19:13,760 --> 00:19:15,439 Speaker 1: So let me see if I can remember. We have 316 00:19:15,440 --> 00:19:22,639 Speaker 1: trouble remembering all the supervisors, Holly Mitchell and Hillary ja 317 00:19:22,720 --> 00:19:30,040 Speaker 1: I can't remember any of them. Catherine Barger, Lindsay Vaughn Horn. No, 318 00:19:30,680 --> 00:19:33,520 Speaker 1: Lindsay Vaughn got a role on the county supervisor board. 319 00:19:34,800 --> 00:19:39,600 Speaker 1: You're believing me, Like, hold on, let me start again. 320 00:19:40,359 --> 00:19:44,520 Speaker 1: That part was a joke. Lindsay Horne Path, Yes, Holly Mitchell, 321 00:19:45,040 --> 00:19:46,800 Speaker 1: Catherine Barger, Hilda slice. 322 00:19:46,920 --> 00:19:51,160 Speaker 2: Yes, Jennis Hanks, there we go. Those are the five bobbleheads, 323 00:19:51,200 --> 00:19:52,280 Speaker 2: the five clownets. 324 00:19:53,320 --> 00:19:57,360 Speaker 1: And so they've released a report saying, hey, homelessness, homeless 325 00:19:57,440 --> 00:19:59,760 Speaker 1: deaths are down in La County for the first time 326 00:19:59,800 --> 00:20:03,480 Speaker 1: in ten years. These are twenty twenty four numbers. They 327 00:20:03,480 --> 00:20:06,400 Speaker 1: have not finished counting the bodies for twenty twenty five yet. 328 00:20:07,080 --> 00:20:11,120 Speaker 1: So I'm looking it's like, homelessness down ten percent, very conveniently, 329 00:20:11,600 --> 00:20:16,560 Speaker 1: a nice round number. Right, that's two thousand, two hundred 330 00:20:16,600 --> 00:20:20,919 Speaker 1: and eight deaths, and I'm thinking, wow, that still seems 331 00:20:20,920 --> 00:20:26,399 Speaker 1: like a lot, right, So they're bragging about how the 332 00:20:26,480 --> 00:20:30,520 Speaker 1: year before there was two thousand, five hundred deaths and 333 00:20:30,560 --> 00:20:32,760 Speaker 1: then there's only two thousand, two hundred deaths. 334 00:20:33,160 --> 00:20:34,800 Speaker 2: It's like, look at that, Look at the big drum. 335 00:20:34,960 --> 00:20:39,560 Speaker 1: That's still two two hundred dead bodies six a day, 336 00:20:41,359 --> 00:20:47,320 Speaker 1: and it's four times the death rate for the rest 337 00:20:47,359 --> 00:20:52,840 Speaker 1: of the county as a home. And this is incredibly bad. 338 00:20:53,119 --> 00:20:55,359 Speaker 1: Having twenty two hundred people die in the streets is 339 00:20:55,400 --> 00:20:58,880 Speaker 1: incredibly bad. It's like, hey, look, look we're killing them 340 00:20:59,000 --> 00:21:04,040 Speaker 1: at us slightly lower rate, aren't we good? Twenty two 341 00:21:04,160 --> 00:21:08,960 Speaker 1: hundred dead bodies And it may shock you that forty 342 00:21:09,000 --> 00:21:14,000 Speaker 1: percent are from overdoses, fourteen percent from traffic accidents. 343 00:21:15,040 --> 00:21:16,760 Speaker 2: That leads me to something else. 344 00:21:18,800 --> 00:21:26,840 Speaker 1: A few years ago, traffic deaths started increasing, and all 345 00:21:26,880 --> 00:21:31,480 Speaker 1: those bike lane weirdos and people who want road diets 346 00:21:31,960 --> 00:21:36,000 Speaker 1: and people who want the roads shrunk so we could 347 00:21:36,040 --> 00:21:41,359 Speaker 1: build bus lanes and pedestrian walkways and bike lades. They said, look, look, 348 00:21:41,440 --> 00:21:43,639 Speaker 1: we got to get people out of their cars. You 349 00:21:43,720 --> 00:21:45,440 Speaker 1: got to get cars off the road. More and more 350 00:21:45,440 --> 00:21:48,960 Speaker 1: people are dying. And I went and looked up where 351 00:21:48,960 --> 00:21:51,520 Speaker 1: they were dying, and where they were dying, where all 352 00:21:51,560 --> 00:21:54,480 Speaker 1: the districts in LA where the most homeless people are. 353 00:21:55,320 --> 00:21:58,520 Speaker 1: We were killing more homeless people because they were allowing 354 00:21:58,520 --> 00:22:01,400 Speaker 1: more homeless people to wander in the especially at night 355 00:22:01,680 --> 00:22:05,000 Speaker 1: when they were on drugs. But I never saw a 356 00:22:05,040 --> 00:22:10,639 Speaker 1: single news story, a single government agency, a single politician 357 00:22:10,720 --> 00:22:14,959 Speaker 1: talk about that that the reason traffic pedestrian deaths were 358 00:22:15,000 --> 00:22:18,680 Speaker 1: going up is because there were more pedestrians in the street, 359 00:22:18,720 --> 00:22:22,760 Speaker 1: more homeless people in the street, especially at night, especially 360 00:22:22,760 --> 00:22:25,520 Speaker 1: when they were on drugs. And now this report connects 361 00:22:25,560 --> 00:22:29,880 Speaker 1: it all because forty percent die from directly from the drugs, 362 00:22:30,520 --> 00:22:36,320 Speaker 1: and then another fourteen percent drive in die from traffic accidents. 363 00:22:36,320 --> 00:22:42,600 Speaker 1: They get run over, and twenty seven percent was accommodation. 364 00:22:44,000 --> 00:22:45,520 Speaker 2: They can't quite sort it out. 365 00:22:46,760 --> 00:22:49,480 Speaker 1: Well, that's why, and this is why they want to 366 00:22:49,520 --> 00:22:52,720 Speaker 1: get speed cameras. This is why they want to put 367 00:22:52,840 --> 00:22:55,919 Speaker 1: speed bumps in. This is why they want to have 368 00:22:56,080 --> 00:23:01,240 Speaker 1: rogue diets create more traffic because homeless people were getting 369 00:23:01,320 --> 00:23:05,880 Speaker 1: run over and they knew this and they wouldn't admit it. 370 00:23:05,960 --> 00:23:08,480 Speaker 1: The three hundred and fifteen three hundred and fifteen traffic 371 00:23:08,520 --> 00:23:11,399 Speaker 1: deaths in twenty twenty four, twenty five percent higher than 372 00:23:11,440 --> 00:23:12,280 Speaker 1: the previous year. 373 00:23:14,119 --> 00:23:16,159 Speaker 2: And what do you. 374 00:23:16,160 --> 00:23:20,719 Speaker 1: Think that that's what drives the traffic death rate up 375 00:23:20,720 --> 00:23:23,600 Speaker 1: in the county is three hundred and fifteen extra homeless 376 00:23:23,600 --> 00:23:28,919 Speaker 1: people getting run over. Now, a smart, sane society, like 377 00:23:29,040 --> 00:23:33,080 Speaker 1: if Lindsey Horvf and Holly Mitchell and hitdles Salise and 378 00:23:33,200 --> 00:23:37,919 Speaker 1: Jenis Hahn and Catherine Barger, if they were sane and 379 00:23:37,960 --> 00:23:44,320 Speaker 1: they were intelligent, they would ban homeless people from sleeping 380 00:23:44,320 --> 00:23:49,919 Speaker 1: and living outdoors, and then they would spend some of 381 00:23:49,960 --> 00:23:54,199 Speaker 1: the tax money we give them a mandatory drug treatment. 382 00:23:54,960 --> 00:23:57,440 Speaker 1: You're fan in the street, you don't have a home, 383 00:23:57,720 --> 00:24:01,880 Speaker 1: and you're on drugs you're going to drug treatment, put 384 00:24:01,880 --> 00:24:07,359 Speaker 1: them indoors, they get treatment, and then you get them 385 00:24:07,400 --> 00:24:09,399 Speaker 1: on a path. You're getting a job. But she getting 386 00:24:09,440 --> 00:24:12,800 Speaker 1: drug treatment mandatory. Cannot lay in the street. 387 00:24:13,520 --> 00:24:17,480 Speaker 2: You can't. That's what she would do with the money. 388 00:24:17,720 --> 00:24:20,960 Speaker 1: Except they're all corrupt and they all feed the homeless 389 00:24:20,960 --> 00:24:26,240 Speaker 1: nonprofit beast. They allow all these nonprofits to hire well, 390 00:24:26,280 --> 00:24:28,880 Speaker 1: it's their friends and it's their relatives who then pay 391 00:24:28,920 --> 00:24:33,520 Speaker 1: themselves six figure salaries. It's like the Jennifer Newsom story yesterday. 392 00:24:33,680 --> 00:24:37,400 Speaker 1: You know, Jennifer Newsom has this nonprofit, has this company, 393 00:24:37,440 --> 00:24:43,240 Speaker 1: and she makes really horrific gender equity films, forces them 394 00:24:43,240 --> 00:24:44,920 Speaker 1: on children in the schools. Oh I got a whole 395 00:24:44,920 --> 00:24:49,160 Speaker 1: story about that extensiony yesterday story. But then she hired 396 00:24:49,160 --> 00:24:52,680 Speaker 1: her two friends and pays her two friends a total 397 00:24:52,720 --> 00:24:54,919 Speaker 1: of three hundred thousand dollars a year. And then Jennifer 398 00:24:54,960 --> 00:24:57,919 Speaker 1: Newsom pays herself three hundred thousand dollars a year and 399 00:24:57,960 --> 00:25:00,560 Speaker 1: they make films nobody wants to see. And they get 400 00:25:00,560 --> 00:25:06,480 Speaker 1: the money from campaign donors to Gavin's to Gavin's races. See, 401 00:25:06,520 --> 00:25:08,520 Speaker 1: when you want to be a friend of Gavin, you 402 00:25:08,640 --> 00:25:11,680 Speaker 1: have to contribute money to his latest election. And then 403 00:25:11,680 --> 00:25:13,760 Speaker 1: you have to contribute money to the wife so she 404 00:25:13,840 --> 00:25:18,520 Speaker 1: could produce these idiotic feminist gender films and she can 405 00:25:18,600 --> 00:25:22,200 Speaker 1: employ her friends and herself and steal an extra million. 406 00:25:24,200 --> 00:25:26,840 Speaker 1: And that's what these county supervisors have rackets for their 407 00:25:26,880 --> 00:25:30,840 Speaker 1: friends and relatives too. Set up a homeless nonprofit. We'll 408 00:25:30,880 --> 00:25:34,639 Speaker 1: give you a grant, and then they leave the people 409 00:25:34,680 --> 00:25:37,680 Speaker 1: to die in the street. By this time tour when 410 00:25:37,720 --> 00:25:40,399 Speaker 1: we talk, another six people will be dead on the 411 00:25:40,400 --> 00:25:44,680 Speaker 1: street in La County. Another six. In fact, there's six 412 00:25:44,720 --> 00:25:49,560 Speaker 1: people died since we last spoke yesterday. Again, a sane, 413 00:25:49,840 --> 00:25:53,720 Speaker 1: smart society would say, oh, everybody off the street and 414 00:25:53,760 --> 00:25:59,359 Speaker 1: drug addicts go to drug treatment, zero tolerance, which they 415 00:25:59,400 --> 00:26:03,720 Speaker 1: do in a countries I went did Japan a few 416 00:26:03,760 --> 00:26:09,560 Speaker 1: years ago. Zero people in the streets, zero, no almost people, 417 00:26:09,640 --> 00:26:12,199 Speaker 1: No drug addicts in the street. Whatever funny business is 418 00:26:12,200 --> 00:26:15,000 Speaker 1: going on is going on behind closed doors, all right, 419 00:26:15,000 --> 00:26:20,200 Speaker 1: when we come back yesterday we got big laughs listening 420 00:26:20,240 --> 00:26:23,840 Speaker 1: to a podcast that Gavin Newsom went on where Newsom 421 00:26:23,840 --> 00:26:26,880 Speaker 1: started babbling he couldn't come up with an answer as 422 00:26:26,880 --> 00:26:28,960 Speaker 1: to why he's running for president. 423 00:26:30,160 --> 00:26:30,960 Speaker 2: Yeah, and then. 424 00:26:30,840 --> 00:26:35,800 Speaker 1: What's the name of that that podcaster Adam Friedlin was 425 00:26:35,960 --> 00:26:39,400 Speaker 1: sitting there listening to do some babbel and he goes, 426 00:26:39,600 --> 00:26:44,080 Speaker 1: what what, Well, we found it funny, and so did 427 00:26:45,160 --> 00:26:48,240 Speaker 1: Greg Gutfeld.
