00:01:19,600 --> 00:01:24,360
Speaker 2: Well, last October the world found out how city councilmen

29
00:01:24,440 --> 00:01:27,680
Speaker 2: talking private. There was the big scandal involving new Ye

30
00:01:27,760 --> 00:01:31,600
Speaker 2: Martinez and Kevin Leone and Gil Sidio.

31
00:01:32,480 --> 00:01:35,520
Speaker 1: They were exposed racially charged comments.

32
00:01:35,600 --> 00:01:39,199
Speaker 2: Yeah, making all kinds of race comments about Mike Bonn

33
00:01:39,200 --> 00:01:41,080
Speaker 2: and they were picking on Mike Bonn and Mike Bonn

34
00:01:41,080 --> 00:01:45,880
Speaker 2: AND's black son and black residence in town and Wahawkan

35
00:01:46,000 --> 00:01:47,640
Speaker 2: residence and oh.

36
00:01:47,560 --> 00:01:49,440
Speaker 3: That's right, if I got about the wa Hawkins right.

37
00:01:49,640 --> 00:01:52,960
Speaker 3: They did it at noriy. Martinez ended up resigning. Gil

38
00:01:53,040 --> 00:01:56,480
Speaker 3: Sidillo lost his election, so he's gone, but Kevin Leone

39
00:01:56,520 --> 00:01:57,080
Speaker 3: is still there.

40
00:01:57,480 --> 00:01:59,720
Speaker 2: Yeah, And it was at the offices of the Los

41
00:01:59,760 --> 00:02:01,960
Speaker 2: Angeles County Federation of Labor.

42
00:02:02,120 --> 00:02:04,200
Speaker 3: And it actually was a conversation from a year prior

43
00:02:04,280 --> 00:02:06,000
Speaker 3: to that. So we're going back to October of twenty

44
00:02:06,000 --> 00:02:07,760
Speaker 3: twenty one when they were having this discussion.

45
00:02:07,800 --> 00:02:11,239
Speaker 1: Who made the recording hasn't been determined yet.

46
00:02:11,280 --> 00:02:13,680
Speaker 3: Oh and remember what it was about, John, Remember about

47
00:02:13,680 --> 00:02:16,040
Speaker 3: the whole district thing, redistricting, of trying to figure out,

48
00:02:16,040 --> 00:02:18,359
Speaker 3: you know, how to get more Latino council members right.

49
00:02:18,240 --> 00:02:21,120
Speaker 2: And fewer Black council members, to try to rig the

50
00:02:21,200 --> 00:02:24,360
Speaker 2: way the districts are drawn so more Hispanic voters, less

51
00:02:24,400 --> 00:02:29,880
Speaker 2: Black voters are included in certain districts. Anyway, Steve Gregory

52
00:02:29,960 --> 00:02:32,800
Speaker 2: is here because there has been some progress in this

53
00:02:32,919 --> 00:02:33,960
Speaker 2: long investigation.

54
00:02:34,440 --> 00:02:35,480
Speaker 1: Hey, that's the leaker.

55
00:02:35,680 --> 00:02:39,600
Speaker 2: Yes, that's right, and whether or not the leaker broke

56
00:02:39,680 --> 00:02:43,240
Speaker 2: the law, and that's the thing that I think LPD

57
00:02:43,360 --> 00:02:45,920
Speaker 2: detectives are trying to figure out. So on July thirteenth,

58
00:02:46,000 --> 00:02:49,400
Speaker 2: early morning, investigators showed up at the home of Santos

59
00:02:49,480 --> 00:02:51,000
Speaker 2: Leon and Carlo Vasquez.

60
00:02:51,120 --> 00:02:52,360
Speaker 1: They are a married couple.

61
00:02:52,840 --> 00:02:55,720
Speaker 2: Both of whom Leased until recently worked for the La

62
00:02:55,800 --> 00:02:59,040
Speaker 2: County Federation of Labor. Now the La County Federation of

63
00:02:59,120 --> 00:03:02,800
Speaker 2: Labor is also where Herrera worked, and Ron Herrera was

64
00:03:02,919 --> 00:03:05,320
Speaker 2: one of those that was caught on this audio recording

65
00:03:05,600 --> 00:03:08,520
Speaker 2: and he resigned, and he resigned over this. So now

66
00:03:08,720 --> 00:03:12,760
Speaker 2: it begs the question why were investigators at the homes

67
00:03:12,800 --> 00:03:16,600
Speaker 2: of Leon Vasquez. Well, it seems as though they had

68
00:03:16,639 --> 00:03:20,040
Speaker 2: information that there might have been a laptop placed either

69
00:03:20,120 --> 00:03:25,840
Speaker 2: in Herrera's office or in boardroom that was outfitted with

70
00:03:25,960 --> 00:03:30,160
Speaker 2: recording software. And the investigators went in with a warrant,

71
00:03:30,160 --> 00:03:34,440
Speaker 2: and the warrant listed criminal codes of ease dropping and

72
00:03:34,520 --> 00:03:38,560
Speaker 2: destroying or concealing evidence. So that was the purpose of

73
00:03:38,600 --> 00:03:41,520
Speaker 2: the warrant. And they went in there early morning July thirteenth.

74
00:03:41,520 --> 00:03:43,600
Speaker 2: They spent about two hours, a little over two hours

75
00:03:43,640 --> 00:03:47,320
Speaker 2: there and they removed some computer equipment, and they also

76
00:03:47,360 --> 00:03:51,440
Speaker 2: sat and spoke with Leon and Vasquez. And Leone was

77
00:03:51,520 --> 00:03:56,080
Speaker 2: the financial director of the Federation of Labor and Vasquez

78
00:03:56,680 --> 00:04:00,480
Speaker 2: was I believe an assistant to Herrera. There was sort

79
00:04:00,480 --> 00:04:03,720
Speaker 2: of a connection there. It was very very nepotistic in

80
00:04:03,760 --> 00:04:07,480
Speaker 2: that and in that in that way it was created.

81
00:04:08,120 --> 00:04:12,280
Speaker 2: And there has been some sort of anecdotal information about

82
00:04:12,360 --> 00:04:13,120
Speaker 2: the two of them.

83
00:04:13,000 --> 00:04:14,520
Speaker 1: And why they might have done it.

84
00:04:14,560 --> 00:04:17,760
Speaker 2: There was information where there had been one published report

85
00:04:17,800 --> 00:04:21,680
Speaker 2: where they thought that Vasquez was trying to find out

86
00:04:21,800 --> 00:04:24,560
Speaker 2: if Herrera was saying anything bad about Leon, and so

87
00:04:24,600 --> 00:04:26,560
Speaker 2: they were trying to figure out and they were planning

88
00:04:26,600 --> 00:04:29,880
Speaker 2: the audio recordings in there. We've not independently confirmed that,

89
00:04:30,000 --> 00:04:33,159
Speaker 2: but that that was a published report of one variation

90
00:04:33,400 --> 00:04:36,839
Speaker 2: of this story. So right now l e PD investigators

91
00:04:37,440 --> 00:04:40,400
Speaker 2: are looking through the data that they got from the

92
00:04:40,440 --> 00:04:43,200
Speaker 2: home and as of today now we are told the

93
00:04:43,200 --> 00:04:45,760
Speaker 2: Attorney General's office, the State Attorney General's office is now

94
00:04:45,839 --> 00:04:48,640
Speaker 2: investigating this. And I'm sure that has more to do

95
00:04:48,720 --> 00:04:52,400
Speaker 2: with the fact that some friendly politicians were involved. And

96
00:04:52,440 --> 00:04:54,720
Speaker 2: it seems like every time something like that happens, they

97
00:04:54,720 --> 00:04:57,000
Speaker 2: call up you know, they call up the Sacramento for help,

98
00:04:58,040 --> 00:05:00,520
Speaker 2: So I'm not sure. Now it's also possible to LAPD

99
00:05:01,360 --> 00:05:03,960
Speaker 2: is using the Attorney General's office for maybe some more

100
00:05:04,000 --> 00:05:07,600
Speaker 2: access or maybe better warrants, or maybe technology that they

101
00:05:07,600 --> 00:05:10,200
Speaker 2: don't have at their disposals, So that's very possible.

102
00:05:10,520 --> 00:05:12,040
Speaker 1: But it looks like they are honing in.

103
00:05:12,240 --> 00:05:14,760
Speaker 2: And they have at least identified one laptop that was

104
00:05:14,760 --> 00:05:18,039
Speaker 2: outfitted with a special recording software and that belonged to

105
00:05:18,080 --> 00:05:21,120
Speaker 2: this couple, well one of them. The one laptop was

106
00:05:21,160 --> 00:05:23,600
Speaker 2: actually property of the Federation of Labor, so it was

107
00:05:23,640 --> 00:05:25,920
Speaker 2: a company laptop, but they were it was used by

108
00:05:26,000 --> 00:05:29,520
Speaker 2: this couple, I see. So, and so they put in

109
00:05:29,560 --> 00:05:32,800
Speaker 2: some recording software and left it on the table in

110
00:05:32,880 --> 00:05:36,359
Speaker 2: that it was known according to a published report, it

111
00:05:36,400 --> 00:05:39,719
Speaker 2: was known to have been left in either Herrera's office

112
00:05:40,160 --> 00:05:43,599
Speaker 2: or in a nearby conference room. All right, So the

113
00:05:43,640 --> 00:05:47,159
Speaker 2: motivation may have been they wanted to hear what Herrera

114
00:05:47,320 --> 00:05:51,320
Speaker 2: was saying about either of those two, Right? What motivated

115
00:05:51,640 --> 00:05:56,080
Speaker 2: the leaker to give it to the La Times and

116
00:05:56,800 --> 00:06:01,159
Speaker 2: you know, embarrass all the principles and some political careers here?

117
00:06:01,200 --> 00:06:05,479
Speaker 2: What what was that motivation? That's unclear now. You know

118
00:06:05,480 --> 00:06:07,799
Speaker 2: it's one of those things if you if you start

119
00:06:07,800 --> 00:06:10,080
Speaker 2: to recording it that has happened to me many times before.

120
00:06:10,120 --> 00:06:12,720
Speaker 2: There's a three letter agency that I'm not going to

121
00:06:12,760 --> 00:06:16,480
Speaker 2: mention right now, where I put a microphone on one

122
00:06:16,560 --> 00:06:19,120
Speaker 2: of their agents and told them upfront it's on tape,

123
00:06:19,240 --> 00:06:21,200
Speaker 2: this is recording, just so you know, it's recording the

124
00:06:21,200 --> 00:06:23,640
Speaker 2: whole time. And they sat in a car and had

125
00:06:23,640 --> 00:06:27,200
Speaker 2: a conversation amongst three other agents and they forgot the

126
00:06:27,240 --> 00:06:31,000
Speaker 2: microphone was hot. So I've had that happen before. I

127
00:06:31,000 --> 00:06:34,760
Speaker 2: could have taken that information and created a whole new scandal.

128
00:06:35,360 --> 00:06:37,440
Speaker 1: Is that right there? Was really good? It still?

129
00:06:37,480 --> 00:06:40,440
Speaker 2: Can you know what it was? What I can break

130
00:06:40,440 --> 00:06:42,479
Speaker 2: it right now? What they farted?

131
00:06:45,440 --> 00:06:46,640
Speaker 1: Wow? All three of them.

132
00:06:46,680 --> 00:06:50,159
Speaker 2: One of them farted and the rest of them took

133
00:06:50,279 --> 00:06:53,320
Speaker 2: issue with it, and it was a complete discussion about it,

134
00:06:53,560 --> 00:06:56,800
Speaker 2: and they started screaming, accusting at each other and railing

135
00:06:56,880 --> 00:06:59,360
Speaker 2: on each other. Wait wait, you took that tape home

136
00:06:59,440 --> 00:07:02,360
Speaker 2: or to the offer, you started playing it, and that's

137
00:07:02,400 --> 00:07:02,960
Speaker 2: what you got.

138
00:07:03,080 --> 00:07:05,720
Speaker 1: I was like, what the hell is this? This is big, folks,

139
00:07:05,760 --> 00:07:06,960
Speaker 1: this is big, This is huge.

140
00:07:07,360 --> 00:07:09,479
Speaker 2: I took that clip and sent it back to the

141
00:07:09,520 --> 00:07:11,760
Speaker 2: agent in charge of this three letter agency and said

142
00:07:12,000 --> 00:07:17,000
Speaker 2: this airs at five tonight. That What was funny is

143
00:07:17,040 --> 00:07:19,600
Speaker 2: I went through their public affairs people first, just as

144
00:07:19,640 --> 00:07:23,320
Speaker 2: a joke. Then the agent in charge of said agency

145
00:07:23,360 --> 00:07:26,200
Speaker 2: called me from the LA office and said, oh, you're

146
00:07:26,240 --> 00:07:27,400
Speaker 2: not going to really use that, are you?

147
00:07:27,680 --> 00:07:28,679
Speaker 1: I said, what's it worth?

148
00:07:30,360 --> 00:07:32,800
Speaker 2: So anyway, my pointing on that funny, and that's actually

149
00:07:32,920 --> 00:07:36,480
Speaker 2: very true story. My point in that is that if I,

150
00:07:36,480 --> 00:07:38,720
Speaker 2: if I were to guess on something like that, they

151
00:07:38,720 --> 00:07:41,920
Speaker 2: probably heard something and they're thinking like, this is big,

152
00:07:42,400 --> 00:07:44,720
Speaker 2: you know so, And I don't know whether they might

153
00:07:44,720 --> 00:07:47,560
Speaker 2: have shopped it around, whether they thought they had something

154
00:07:47,680 --> 00:07:49,360
Speaker 2: too big to handle.

155
00:07:49,440 --> 00:07:51,600
Speaker 1: I don't know. It will be interesting to see.

156
00:07:51,840 --> 00:07:55,040
Speaker 2: They also had to have animosity towards you think, Yeah,

157
00:07:55,160 --> 00:07:58,400
Speaker 2: they knew what this was going to do. They might

158
00:07:58,440 --> 00:08:01,200
Speaker 2: have gotten it by accident, but they they were certainly.

159
00:08:01,960 --> 00:08:04,320
Speaker 2: Because what they're gonna try to find out is they

160
00:08:04,320 --> 00:08:07,040
Speaker 2: have the warrants to find out who posted the audio

161
00:08:07,040 --> 00:08:09,720
Speaker 2: to that Reddit thread right now. What they have to

162
00:08:09,760 --> 00:08:12,080
Speaker 2: find out is if is that one of these two

163
00:08:12,120 --> 00:08:15,560
Speaker 2: people or is it someone connected to those two people.

164
00:08:15,800 --> 00:08:18,760
Speaker 2: Did these two people erase something and someone else extracted

165
00:08:19,040 --> 00:08:21,400
Speaker 2: did they tell somebody? I mean there could be more

166
00:08:21,880 --> 00:08:26,040
Speaker 2: fingers that have touched this. Okay, all right, but we'll.

167
00:08:25,920 --> 00:08:28,360
Speaker 1: Keep you posted. Yeah, if you're getting more part tapes,

170
00:08:32,000 --> 00:08:33,800

00:08:33,800 --> 00:08:36,000
Speaker 2: you real quickly, because you just hear this around and

Speaker 2: And they just start screaming at each other about the fart.

00:08:51,520 --> 00:08:53,720
Speaker 2: So it was pretty funny. Were they all guys?

180
00:08:53,920 --> 00:08:54,319

00:08:54,360 --> 00:08:56,360

Speaker 3: We have an update on what's been going on in

197
00:09:37,280 --> 00:09:41,840
Speaker 3: the lovely neighborhood of Silmar, where we've had this woman

198
00:09:41,920 --> 00:09:44,720
Speaker 3: who was renting out r vs to vagrants to come

199
00:09:44,800 --> 00:09:47,200
Speaker 3: live on a property they numbered over twenty.

200
00:09:47,640 --> 00:09:49,360
Speaker 1: Things got have been going on for years.

201
00:09:49,480 --> 00:09:52,240
Speaker 3: Things got so bad that there were problems with electricity

202
00:09:52,280 --> 00:09:54,640
Speaker 3: in the sewage. Power got shut off and a judge

203
00:09:54,640 --> 00:09:58,720
Speaker 3: that everybody leave by Sunday. That didn't exactly happen. But

204
00:09:59,280 --> 00:10:01,760
Speaker 3: let's see what the update is from the Cafe News

205
00:10:01,800 --> 00:10:03,760
Speaker 3: reporter Blake Trolley on this story.

206
00:10:04,720 --> 00:10:05,520
Speaker 1: What's going on? Blake?

207
00:10:06,679 --> 00:10:08,520
Speaker 5: Yeah, guys, so it looks like this RV park is

208
00:10:08,559 --> 00:10:10,600
Speaker 5: actually coming to an end. And I know there were

209
00:10:10,640 --> 00:10:13,520
Speaker 5: a lot of questions about what might happen given the

210
00:10:13,520 --> 00:10:17,240
Speaker 5: fact that past that deadline, people were still on the property.

211
00:10:17,880 --> 00:10:21,400
Speaker 5: This came down very recently. If the City Attorney's office

212
00:10:21,400 --> 00:10:24,160
Speaker 5: says that the woman who was charged of illegally having

213
00:10:24,160 --> 00:10:28,080
Speaker 5: the RVs on her property pled no contest to one

214
00:10:28,200 --> 00:10:31,480
Speaker 5: count and was sentenced to some probationary terms. And this

215
00:10:31,520 --> 00:10:35,080
Speaker 5: includes getting all the RV's off her property, but not

216
00:10:35,160 --> 00:10:37,920
Speaker 5: only that, there goes on further than that. It says

217
00:10:38,280 --> 00:10:40,200
Speaker 5: she's not going to be able to park any personal

218
00:10:40,320 --> 00:10:43,080
Speaker 5: RV motor home or trailer within one hundred feet of

219
00:10:43,080 --> 00:10:46,160
Speaker 5: her home. She's not allowed to enter into any contract

220
00:10:46,200 --> 00:10:48,560
Speaker 5: with the rental or storage of r vs, motor homes,

221
00:10:48,600 --> 00:10:52,440
Speaker 5: trailers within one hundred feet of her home. She needs

222
00:10:52,480 --> 00:10:57,040
Speaker 5: to maintain the property free of storage inoperable vehicles, trash.

223
00:10:57,120 --> 00:10:58,720
Speaker 5: And that's one thing we did notice when we were

224
00:10:58,720 --> 00:11:00,360
Speaker 5: at the property is there was a lot of trash,

225
00:11:00,400 --> 00:11:03,000
Speaker 5: a lot of junk on that property. And one thing

226
00:11:03,040 --> 00:11:05,679
Speaker 5: I also noticed was just the amount of garbage cans

227
00:11:06,040 --> 00:11:09,000
Speaker 5: that it took to, you know, just house the trash,

228
00:11:09,080 --> 00:11:10,920
Speaker 5: you know, out on the curb side for trash day,

229
00:11:11,679 --> 00:11:15,160
Speaker 5: not allow any spillage, dumping of waste, or excessive liquids

230
00:11:15,160 --> 00:11:18,640
Speaker 5: on the property. And the city is saying that they're

231
00:11:18,679 --> 00:11:20,640
Speaker 5: going to be taking a look at this within forty

232
00:11:20,640 --> 00:11:24,199
Speaker 5: five days and they want to see significant progress. There

233
00:11:24,240 --> 00:11:27,480
Speaker 5: is another court hearing for this September seventh, So all

234
00:11:27,640 --> 00:11:30,640
Speaker 5: very early information. I've set the grocery store when I

235
00:11:30,679 --> 00:11:34,120
Speaker 5: got this email, so I've been putting out some phone

236
00:11:34,120 --> 00:11:36,280
Speaker 5: calls and trying to work out the specifics. But that's

237
00:11:36,800 --> 00:11:37,840
Speaker 5: that's the big picture there.

238
00:11:37,880 --> 00:11:40,640
Speaker 1: Well, now she was ordered out too, wasn't she Originally?

239
00:11:42,000 --> 00:11:43,559
Speaker 5: Yeah, she was ordered out of the property. When I

240
00:11:43,600 --> 00:11:45,840
Speaker 5: read through the terms, I didn't see anything about her leaving,

241
00:11:45,920 --> 00:11:48,440
Speaker 5: So it appears they might let her stay under the

242
00:11:48,480 --> 00:11:52,240
Speaker 5: terms of that plea agreement. I think more they probably

243
00:11:52,240 --> 00:11:54,240
Speaker 5: were less concerned with getting her off the property than

244
00:11:54,280 --> 00:11:57,240
Speaker 5: just getting all those getting all those RVs off.

245
00:11:57,120 --> 00:12:00,960
Speaker 2: So anybody who hasn't taken their RV out yet. It's

246
00:12:01,000 --> 00:12:03,160
Speaker 2: going to have to be out within forty five days.

247
00:12:03,960 --> 00:12:06,079
Speaker 5: And now she's agreeing to it. So I guess now

248
00:12:06,120 --> 00:12:07,920
Speaker 5: the real question becomes is there going to be any

249
00:12:07,960 --> 00:12:11,120
Speaker 5: rip between her and the r V tenants? You know,

250
00:12:12,000 --> 00:12:13,880
Speaker 5: are they going to give her any pushback when she

251
00:12:13,920 --> 00:12:16,480
Speaker 5: goes to get them off of her property? What you

252
00:12:16,480 --> 00:12:16,840
Speaker 5: guys know?

253
00:12:17,040 --> 00:12:19,920
Speaker 3: And then well, just to clarify what John was Just

254
00:12:19,920 --> 00:12:22,920
Speaker 3: to clarify what John was asking, these are not their RVs.

255
00:12:22,960 --> 00:12:24,760
Speaker 3: I thought she brought them on the property and rented

256
00:12:24,800 --> 00:12:25,559
Speaker 3: them out to these people.

257
00:12:25,600 --> 00:12:26,360
Speaker 1: Isn't that what happened.

258
00:12:27,880 --> 00:12:29,720
Speaker 5: I think it's a mix, isn't it. I've been told

259
00:12:29,760 --> 00:12:31,360
Speaker 5: it's a mix. But you know, we get a lot

260
00:12:31,400 --> 00:12:35,360
Speaker 5: of different stories about exactly the origins of all those RVs,

261
00:12:35,360 --> 00:12:37,720
Speaker 5: But I believe some people were just brought their RVs in.

262
00:12:38,000 --> 00:12:39,559
Speaker 5: In fact, when we spoke with the guy who said

263
00:12:39,600 --> 00:12:42,160
Speaker 5: he lived on the property, he had explained that, you know,

264
00:12:42,600 --> 00:12:44,800
Speaker 5: some of the RVs were not up to code, some were,

265
00:12:45,320 --> 00:12:47,880
Speaker 5: some were newer, some were older, depending on what people

266
00:12:47,920 --> 00:12:49,720
Speaker 5: had brought in as the way he described it to me,

267
00:12:49,800 --> 00:12:51,640
Speaker 5: So I believe it might have been a mix.

268
00:12:54,800 --> 00:12:58,280
Speaker 1: These RVs away, It's yeah.

269
00:12:58,320 --> 00:12:59,720
Speaker 5: I mean, I would assume there's going to be some

270
00:12:59,800 --> 00:13:02,720
Speaker 5: level of enforcement there, and now they've got the cooperation

271
00:13:02,800 --> 00:13:05,560
Speaker 5: of the homeowner, so I would imagine we're going to

272
00:13:05,559 --> 00:13:09,320
Speaker 5: see some action, given they've got that forty five day notice,

273
00:13:09,679 --> 00:13:11,719
Speaker 5: you know which I'm sure some of the people in

274
00:13:11,760 --> 00:13:13,880
Speaker 5: the area would like to see a tighter deadline on that.

275
00:13:14,320 --> 00:13:16,800
Speaker 5: From some of what I've heard, I think we're going

276
00:13:16,840 --> 00:13:19,240
Speaker 5: to start seeing those RVs and more of the stubborn

277
00:13:19,280 --> 00:13:22,480
Speaker 5: cases move off. I mean, and to give you guys perspective,

278
00:13:22,520 --> 00:13:24,400
Speaker 5: as soon as everybody was ordered off, it went from

279
00:13:24,440 --> 00:13:27,560
Speaker 5: like fifty people on the property down to fifteen. So

280
00:13:27,679 --> 00:13:29,680
Speaker 5: thirty five people had already left. They were down to

281
00:13:29,720 --> 00:13:32,320
Speaker 5: the final few. And now the same day I was

282
00:13:32,320 --> 00:13:34,920
Speaker 5: given that fifteen, I think a couple of them I

283
00:13:34,960 --> 00:13:36,880
Speaker 5: believe that day look like from what I was seeing,

284
00:13:36,920 --> 00:13:40,120
Speaker 5: we're moving off. So there probably aren't too many people left.

285
00:13:40,160 --> 00:13:41,360
Speaker 1: Any idea where they went?

286
00:13:41,480 --> 00:13:44,040
Speaker 2: Did they did they just go around the block and park,

287
00:13:44,120 --> 00:13:46,840
Speaker 2: or did they get out of the whole area.

288
00:13:47,000 --> 00:13:49,800
Speaker 5: I got to work to figure that part out. I mean,

289
00:13:49,840 --> 00:13:52,440
Speaker 5: I know there was emergency shelters and housing you know,

290
00:13:52,520 --> 00:13:56,520
Speaker 5: solutions as they worded it to us. John offered to

291
00:13:56,559 --> 00:13:58,680
Speaker 5: the people there, but you have to wonder if anybody's

292
00:13:58,720 --> 00:14:00,439
Speaker 5: just going to move their RV and end up in

293
00:14:00,440 --> 00:14:03,640
Speaker 5: a parking lot or some sort of situation that way.

294
00:14:03,679 --> 00:14:05,400
Speaker 5: You know, that has been a pressing issue in the

295
00:14:05,720 --> 00:14:06,720
Speaker 5: San Fernando Valley.

296
00:14:06,760 --> 00:14:11,720
Speaker 1: All right, we'll go finish your grocery shopping. All right, guys,

297
00:14:11,800 --> 00:14:12,560
Speaker 1: thank you for calling.

298
00:14:12,559 --> 00:14:15,800
Speaker 3: It's Blake Trolley CAFI News. Yeah, we've talked about van

299
00:14:15,880 --> 00:14:18,559
Speaker 3: lord's r V lords. There were people that had these

300
00:14:18,640 --> 00:14:21,520
Speaker 3: rundown RVs and they rent them to the vagrants to

301
00:14:21,600 --> 00:14:23,920
Speaker 3: take in park somewhere. Yeah, she could have gotten it

302
00:14:23,920 --> 00:14:25,560
Speaker 3: from a van or an RV lord, or they could

303
00:14:25,560 --> 00:14:28,800
Speaker 3: have done that and brought it there. They're often inoperable

304
00:14:28,840 --> 00:14:32,120
Speaker 3: pieces of junk. That's what's all piled up at the

305
00:14:32,160 --> 00:14:34,520
Speaker 3: Bleona Wetlands there on the west side, a bunch of

306
00:14:34,560 --> 00:14:37,840
Speaker 3: those things. We have another bit of breaking news.

307
00:14:38,520 --> 00:14:39,320
Speaker 1: How about that?

308
00:14:40,160 --> 00:14:40,760
Speaker 4: What a day?

309
00:14:41,400 --> 00:14:43,640
Speaker 3: Remember the guy that attacked the woman in East La

310
00:14:43,720 --> 00:14:46,680
Speaker 3: on our own front lawn, tried to sexually assault her

311
00:14:46,760 --> 00:14:50,080
Speaker 3: to that story from like a week ago. Sergio Andrew

312
00:14:50,120 --> 00:14:56,880
Speaker 3: Garcia has been arrested that is the update, and we

313
00:14:56,960 --> 00:14:59,880
Speaker 3: found out that he's done this to a number of women.

314
00:15:00,280 --> 00:15:03,120
Speaker 3: He also, of course had a criminal record. Of course,

315
00:15:03,600 --> 00:15:06,120
Speaker 3: he punched this sixty seven year old woman, pulled down

316
00:15:06,160 --> 00:15:08,160
Speaker 3: her pants in underwear while she was working in her

317
00:15:08,200 --> 00:15:11,160
Speaker 3: East La yard. He was on a bicycle. We were

318
00:15:11,160 --> 00:15:16,480
Speaker 3: wondering he was homeless. Yeah, so they have nabbed him. Finally,

319
00:15:17,880 --> 00:15:20,480
Speaker 3: additional details are being released I think this hour. So

320
00:15:20,560 --> 00:15:23,040
Speaker 3: there you go, a couple of big updates. When way

321
00:15:23,120 --> 00:15:28,200
Speaker 3: return next year. If you're voting, and if you believe

322
00:15:28,240 --> 00:15:32,000
Speaker 3: in the voting process in California, not everyone does, there'll

323
00:15:32,000 --> 00:15:35,720
Speaker 3: be a lot of borrowing measures. Should we borrow over

324
00:15:35,920 --> 00:15:39,680
Speaker 3: five billion dollars to curb fetnyl overdoses?

325
00:15:40,760 --> 00:15:41,800
Speaker 1: Well, this comes.

326
00:15:41,560 --> 00:15:44,840
Speaker 3: From the guy we threw into Satan's like a fire,

327
00:15:45,200 --> 00:15:48,200
Speaker 3: the Public Safety Committee chair Reggie Jones Sawyer from Los Angeles.

328
00:15:48,280 --> 00:15:52,520
Speaker 3: But his partner on this is a Republican Assemblyman, Juan

329
00:15:52,680 --> 00:15:56,000
Speaker 3: Alanas from Modesto. We're going to talk to him next

330
00:15:56,040 --> 00:15:58,400
Speaker 3: as to why people should vote for this, because apparently

331
00:15:59,000 --> 00:16:01,920
Speaker 3: whatever Republicans are left and Sacramento or a skeptical about

332
00:16:02,120 --> 00:16:05,120
Speaker 3: borrowing five billion dollars for fentanyl and as we know

333
00:16:05,160 --> 00:16:08,560
Speaker 3: the Public Safety cutee refuses to pass anything to come

334
00:16:08,560 --> 00:16:11,080
Speaker 3: down harder on the dealers, So we'll talk about all

335
00:16:11,120 --> 00:16:14,680
Speaker 3: this when we return. John and KENKFI AM six forty

Speaker 1: On the radio from one till four.

Speaker 2: After four o'clock you listen to the iHeart app for

Speaker 2: stuff today, So if you missed the show up to

343

Speaker 2: this point, any of it, you ought to get the

344
00:16:36,720 --> 00:16:38,640
Speaker 2: podcast and listen to it later.

345
00:16:39,280 --> 00:16:42,080
Speaker 3: We're going to talk now about Assembly Bill fifteen to ten.

346
00:16:42,320 --> 00:16:45,960
Speaker 3: We mentioned yesterday that next year you may be voting

347
00:16:46,000 --> 00:16:49,280
Speaker 3: on an astonishing amount of new borrowing for the state

348
00:16:49,280 --> 00:16:52,280
Speaker 3: of California. I think it's over twenty five billion dollars.

349
00:16:53,000 --> 00:16:56,600
Speaker 3: One possibility is a five point two billion dollar bond

350
00:16:57,440 --> 00:17:02,400
Speaker 3: to curb fentanyl overdoses. This comes from the Assembly Public

351
00:17:02,400 --> 00:17:06,440
Speaker 3: Safety Committee Chair Reggie Jones Sawyer, Democrat Los Angeles, who

352
00:17:06,440 --> 00:17:08,240
Speaker 3: we threw in Satan's in the Dumpster and the Lake

353
00:17:08,280 --> 00:17:12,080
Speaker 3: of Fire last week. He has been blocking most efforts

354
00:17:12,240 --> 00:17:16,440
Speaker 3: to curb fentanyl dealing. He also was to remember the

355
00:17:16,520 --> 00:17:21,920
Speaker 3: child sex trafficking bill. Yeah, that whole fiasco. The other proponent, though,

356
00:17:22,080 --> 00:17:23,960
Speaker 3: is the vice chair of this Public Safety committee, a

357
00:17:24,040 --> 00:17:28,639
Speaker 3: Republican by the name of Juan alanis from Modesto. So

358
00:17:28,960 --> 00:17:30,600
Speaker 3: we reached out to him to bring him on to

359
00:17:30,600 --> 00:17:33,560
Speaker 3: ask why people should vote for this. Borrowing, of course,

360
00:17:33,640 --> 00:17:36,200
Speaker 3: is often a bad deal in the state of California.

361
00:17:36,200 --> 00:17:38,600
Speaker 3: We already have so much debt, and if they won't

362
00:17:38,600 --> 00:17:42,119
Speaker 3: pass bills to get tougher on fentanyl dealers, why should

363
00:17:42,160 --> 00:17:43,520
Speaker 3: we borrow five billion dollars.

364
00:17:43,600 --> 00:17:45,880
Speaker 1: So let's get them on and talk about it. One,

365
00:17:46,000 --> 00:17:47,320
Speaker 1: thank you for coming on with us.

366
00:17:47,960 --> 00:17:48,880
Speaker 6: Thank you for having me on.

367
00:17:49,320 --> 00:17:52,440
Speaker 1: If I recall you're a former police officer, right I have.

368
00:17:54,400 --> 00:17:56,760
Speaker 2: Yeah, We've agreed to borrow a lot of money into

369
00:17:56,800 --> 00:17:59,960
Speaker 2: Califior in California, and a lot of it has been waste.

370
00:18:00,600 --> 00:18:02,760
Speaker 2: We borrowed a lot of money ten billion for high

371
00:18:02,760 --> 00:18:05,440
Speaker 2: speed rail, and you see what's happened there. Why should

372
00:18:05,560 --> 00:18:08,760
Speaker 2: we trust that any of the money, regardless of how

373
00:18:08,800 --> 00:18:12,520
Speaker 2: well intentioned and how much good it potentially can do,

374
00:18:12,600 --> 00:18:15,320
Speaker 2: Why should we trust it's going to be spent properly

375
00:18:15,480 --> 00:18:17,399
Speaker 2: and not just disappear into a black hole.

376
00:18:18,240 --> 00:18:20,520
Speaker 6: Well, you know I have those those same kind of

377
00:18:20,560 --> 00:18:23,760
Speaker 6: concerns obviously, especially even with the high speed rail. We're

378
00:18:23,800 --> 00:18:26,720
Speaker 6: both on the same page as there. But with this bond,

379
00:18:27,600 --> 00:18:31,000
Speaker 6: you know, I'm tired of waiting. I'm tired of watching

380
00:18:31,480 --> 00:18:34,119
Speaker 6: bills come up from my colleagues, or even from my

381
00:18:34,119 --> 00:18:36,520
Speaker 6: colleagues on the other side of the aisle, get constantly

382
00:18:36,560 --> 00:18:39,040
Speaker 6: slammed for no, we're not doing it, No, we're not

383
00:18:39,080 --> 00:18:41,480
Speaker 6: doing it. So the way I see this, this is

384
00:18:41,520 --> 00:18:44,480
Speaker 6: the way for the voters to actually give their input

385
00:18:44,520 --> 00:18:47,560
Speaker 6: into this and let them decide and say, you know what, Yeah,

386
00:18:47,560 --> 00:18:50,840
Speaker 6: this is something that we want, so let's make this happen.

387
00:18:52,240 --> 00:18:54,600
Speaker 6: It can't wait till tomorrow. And you know, we can't

388
00:18:54,600 --> 00:18:58,080
Speaker 6: wait for another legislator or a legislative body. We must

389
00:18:58,080 --> 00:19:00,560
Speaker 6: act now. And this will save lives. We need to

390
00:19:00,560 --> 00:19:02,160
Speaker 6: save it now.

391
00:19:02,200 --> 00:19:05,119
Speaker 2: And if you pass the bill through the legislature and

392
00:19:05,160 --> 00:19:08,879
Speaker 2: then funded it through the general treasury, it would cost

393
00:19:08,960 --> 00:19:11,000
Speaker 2: half as much as borrowing the money and paying all

394
00:19:11,040 --> 00:19:11,480
Speaker 2: the interest.

395
00:19:13,000 --> 00:19:15,159
Speaker 6: But the other thing that you're doing it requires the

396
00:19:15,240 --> 00:19:18,560
Speaker 6: legislature to come together and agree on a set of priorities.

397
00:19:18,600 --> 00:19:22,000
Speaker 6: And as you and your listeners know, I mean even

398
00:19:22,040 --> 00:19:24,200
Speaker 6: over the last few weeks, and no legislation doesn't agree

399
00:19:24,200 --> 00:19:26,560
Speaker 6: on much. So again we're going to be bickering back

400
00:19:26,600 --> 00:19:26,960
Speaker 6: and forth.

401
00:19:27,160 --> 00:19:29,360
Speaker 2: I don't mind. I don't mind going around the legislature.

402
00:19:29,680 --> 00:19:33,520
Speaker 2: It's just I get I get irritated that we have

403
00:19:33,600 --> 00:19:36,000
Speaker 2: to go around the legislature to get something like this past,

404
00:19:36,200 --> 00:19:39,360
Speaker 2: and then we got to pay double the price because

405
00:19:39,400 --> 00:19:40,440
Speaker 2: of the interest payments.

406
00:19:41,880 --> 00:19:46,080
Speaker 6: Well, I see your point, but that's the only way

407
00:19:46,119 --> 00:19:48,400
Speaker 6: I could see right now that's happening, because otherwise we're

408
00:19:48,440 --> 00:19:51,760
Speaker 6: not doing anything, and just sitting around doing anything's not

409
00:19:51,760 --> 00:19:53,879
Speaker 6: going to get anything done. So this is just a

410
00:19:53,920 --> 00:19:56,560
Speaker 6: way for me to see that the voters finally get

411
00:19:56,600 --> 00:19:59,080
Speaker 6: some input. And I'm hoping even my colleagues from the

412
00:19:59,119 --> 00:20:01,639
Speaker 6: other other side the aisle, we'll see that. You know what, Hey,

413
00:20:01,800 --> 00:20:04,680
Speaker 6: California does want to make some changes, so maybe we

414
00:20:04,760 --> 00:20:06,480
Speaker 6: need to start on some of these things.

415
00:20:06,560 --> 00:20:08,000
Speaker 1: All right, So first of all, I want to ask

416
00:20:08,080 --> 00:20:09,200
Speaker 1: you what's in this spending.

417
00:20:09,280 --> 00:20:09,560
Speaker 4: Now.

418
00:20:10,240 --> 00:20:13,520
Speaker 3: One, we had a guest yesterday as a journalist, Sam Canonis.

419
00:20:13,720 --> 00:20:16,640
Speaker 3: You really should look them up. He talks about harm

420
00:20:16,680 --> 00:20:20,760
Speaker 3: reduction programs. Yeah, fine, but you need some enforcement to

421
00:20:20,800 --> 00:20:22,800
Speaker 3: go with that. I see that some of the spending

422
00:20:22,840 --> 00:20:25,240
Speaker 3: in this bond will be on these harm reduction programs,

423
00:20:25,240 --> 00:20:28,040
Speaker 3: and for people aren't familiar, it's stuff like handing out

424
00:20:28,080 --> 00:20:31,920
Speaker 3: needles and standing by with narcan and trying to save

425
00:20:32,000 --> 00:20:37,320
Speaker 3: the lives of the horrible drug users. So explain to

426
00:20:37,440 --> 00:20:41,120
Speaker 3: our listeners exactly how this money would be well spent

427
00:20:41,359 --> 00:20:42,880
Speaker 3: beyond the fact that John's right to be a lot

428
00:20:42,880 --> 00:20:43,320
Speaker 3: of borrowing.

429
00:20:44,400 --> 00:20:46,359
Speaker 6: So this this bond right here, is going to be

430
00:20:46,400 --> 00:20:48,960
Speaker 6: handling it on one front, as you just mentioned, that

431
00:20:49,119 --> 00:20:51,080
Speaker 6: was brought up with all the programs on it. And

432
00:20:51,320 --> 00:20:54,160
Speaker 6: I'm big on educating. I'm big on prevention, especially if

433
00:20:54,160 --> 00:20:56,480
Speaker 6: we can get into the schools and let the kids

434
00:20:56,520 --> 00:20:58,800
Speaker 6: know what's going on and know about this poison that's

435
00:20:58,840 --> 00:21:01,080
Speaker 6: killing everybody. But i also like to get it on

436
00:21:01,080 --> 00:21:04,400
Speaker 6: the back. And I'm also all about consequences. We need

437
00:21:04,440 --> 00:21:06,560
Speaker 6: to bring back consequences and that is not a word

438
00:21:06,600 --> 00:21:09,960
Speaker 6: that is liked up there in Sacramento. And that's like

439
00:21:10,000 --> 00:21:12,320
Speaker 6: why I joined on ACA twelve and I joined Assembly

440
00:21:12,400 --> 00:21:15,560
Speaker 6: number Dixon and Patterson on THEIRS for sentence enhancements that

441
00:21:15,880 --> 00:21:19,560
Speaker 6: are necessary, uh to part of the solution. I mean,

442
00:21:19,600 --> 00:21:23,200
Speaker 6: we can't just do all the preventive things and work

443
00:21:23,280 --> 00:21:24,879
Speaker 6: by that. And we also got to go from the

444
00:21:25,040 --> 00:21:28,119
Speaker 6: from the other end and look at consequences. We've got

445
00:21:28,160 --> 00:21:29,960
Speaker 6: to hold people accountable and that's something that we don't

446
00:21:29,960 --> 00:21:30,680
Speaker 6: do in Californating.

447
00:21:30,960 --> 00:21:33,359
Speaker 3: But are there is there anything in this bond measure

448
00:21:33,440 --> 00:21:35,480
Speaker 3: that would lead to some type of enforcement?

449
00:21:36,440 --> 00:21:37,720
Speaker 6: No?

450
00:21:37,720 --> 00:21:41,400
Speaker 3: No, Now you mentioned ACA twelve. That's Alexandra's Law. We've

451
00:21:41,400 --> 00:21:43,960
Speaker 3: talked about that a lot. Yes, is that going to

452
00:21:44,040 --> 00:21:44,760
Speaker 3: get on the ballot?

453
00:21:46,800 --> 00:21:49,160
Speaker 6: I hope it gets as much attention as this one does,

454
00:21:49,200 --> 00:21:50,720
Speaker 6: and it does get on the back. I hope it.

455
00:21:50,920 --> 00:21:54,120
Speaker 6: I hope the voters again get to get right.

456
00:21:54,560 --> 00:21:58,720
Speaker 2: And Alexandra's law would require judges to warn dealers that

457
00:21:58,760 --> 00:22:02,879
Speaker 2: they could face homicide charges if they knowingly sell fentanyl

458
00:22:02,960 --> 00:22:06,760
Speaker 2: that kills people like the first time they are involved

459
00:22:06,840 --> 00:22:10,200
Speaker 2: in a situation, the judge gives them a warning, second

460
00:22:10,320 --> 00:22:14,239
Speaker 2: time it's going to be murder, which is similar to

461
00:22:14,280 --> 00:22:15,480
Speaker 2: some drunk driving.

462
00:22:15,600 --> 00:22:17,520
Speaker 3: Right, and the Public Safety Committee wanted none of this,

463
00:22:17,640 --> 00:22:19,159
Speaker 3: So that's why it may go on the ballot.

464
00:22:19,840 --> 00:22:22,600
Speaker 6: Correct, And again, this is another way to let the

465
00:22:22,680 --> 00:22:25,720
Speaker 6: voters have a voice, let them decide for themselves on

466
00:22:25,800 --> 00:22:27,720
Speaker 6: this simple admonishment for fentanyl dillers.

467
00:22:27,800 --> 00:22:31,560
Speaker 2: Right, all right, here's my question here, and by the way,

468
00:22:31,720 --> 00:22:32,880
Speaker 2: I wish all this would work.

469
00:22:33,200 --> 00:22:34,560
Speaker 1: We're not trying to be adversarial.

470
00:22:34,960 --> 00:22:38,080
Speaker 2: But here in Los Angeles we have spent billions and

471
00:22:38,119 --> 00:22:41,560
Speaker 2: billions of dollars and the money went to all kinds

472
00:22:41,640 --> 00:22:45,800
Speaker 2: of nonprofit groups to try to get the homeless off

473
00:22:45,800 --> 00:22:50,280
Speaker 2: the streets, off the drugs, mental help, the whole thing, right,

474
00:22:50,640 --> 00:22:53,639
Speaker 2: billions of dollars. This has gone on now for about

475
00:22:53,680 --> 00:22:58,600
Speaker 2: six years, seven years. Everything's gotten worse. The money has

476
00:22:58,640 --> 00:23:01,439
Speaker 2: been absorbed by these nonprofits who've hired a lot of people,

477
00:23:01,960 --> 00:23:04,760
Speaker 2: and a lot of these people are making six figure

478
00:23:04,800 --> 00:23:09,080
Speaker 2: salaries and nothing, nothing has worked. It's been a failure

479
00:23:09,160 --> 00:23:11,879
Speaker 2: across the board. Everybody knows it. There's nobody making the

480
00:23:11,960 --> 00:23:14,720
Speaker 2: case that all these billions of dollars have done any

481
00:23:14,720 --> 00:23:17,640
Speaker 2: good because they haven't. So that's what I'm worried about.

482
00:23:17,640 --> 00:23:17,800
Speaker 1: Here.

483
00:23:17,800 --> 00:23:20,760
Speaker 2: We get throwing five billion, it all sounds good, but

484
00:23:20,800 --> 00:23:23,800
Speaker 2: then after it's spent, you look around and you still

485
00:23:23,840 --> 00:23:26,960
Speaker 2: have tons of people dying of fennel. How do we

486
00:23:27,000 --> 00:23:29,800
Speaker 2: know the execution works? You can't, I know, you can't

487
00:23:29,800 --> 00:23:31,879
Speaker 2: get a guarantee in life. But I'm looking for something

488
00:23:31,920 --> 00:23:34,560
Speaker 2: here because here in La it is a disaster.

489
00:23:36,160 --> 00:23:38,120
Speaker 6: And that's what a lot of my colleagues from Los

490
00:23:38,119 --> 00:23:40,359
Speaker 6: Angeles are saying as well. And I feel sorry that

491
00:23:40,440 --> 00:23:43,000
Speaker 6: Los Angeles is like that. Like I tell them all

492
00:23:43,000 --> 00:23:45,880
Speaker 6: the time, don't make my district Los Angeles, because we're

493
00:23:45,920 --> 00:23:49,680
Speaker 6: not like that. But as far as as far as

494
00:23:49,680 --> 00:23:52,199
Speaker 6: the problem that you mentioned, being as far back as

495
00:23:52,240 --> 00:23:54,800
Speaker 6: eight years ago or so, I contribute that to Prop

496
00:23:54,800 --> 00:23:58,560
Speaker 6: forty seven brought forty seven is what took felony drug

497
00:23:58,560 --> 00:24:01,280
Speaker 6: possessions down to misdemeanors and grand theft from four hundred

498
00:24:01,320 --> 00:24:03,920
Speaker 6: and nine hundred and fifty. I think that's another bill

499
00:24:03,960 --> 00:24:06,000
Speaker 6: of mine that we're working on for a study that

500
00:24:06,080 --> 00:24:09,880
Speaker 6: both the Chair and I are both on. I want

501
00:24:09,920 --> 00:24:11,959
Speaker 6: to show data to prove that that is hurting us.

502
00:24:12,040 --> 00:24:14,920
Speaker 6: I think that's also a big problem with our enforcement.

503
00:24:14,960 --> 00:24:18,280
Speaker 6: We don't have anymore. And as a formal law enforcement officer,

504
00:24:18,520 --> 00:24:21,040
Speaker 6: my hands were tied on those crimes now because they

505
00:24:21,080 --> 00:24:24,480
Speaker 6: weren't crimes anymore, and my colleagues are reporting them as well. Look,

506
00:24:24,800 --> 00:24:26,960
Speaker 6: crime has gone down, well, yet that's because it's not

507
00:24:27,000 --> 00:24:27,920
Speaker 6: a crime anymore.

508
00:24:28,040 --> 00:24:30,640
Speaker 2: Yeah, I know, I have no patience for that. Of course,

509
00:24:30,680 --> 00:24:34,239
Speaker 2: the crime is way up. Everybody's experiencing it, it's just

510
00:24:34,280 --> 00:24:37,160
Speaker 2: not reported like we had a story. I guess yesterday

511
00:24:37,160 --> 00:24:40,119
Speaker 2: that there's one. I think it's the Walgreens up in

512
00:24:40,400 --> 00:24:45,399
Speaker 2: San Francisco has twelve shoplifting incidents a day. Now the

513
00:24:45,440 --> 00:24:47,880
Speaker 2: manager at Walgreens is not calling the police twelve times

514
00:24:47,920 --> 00:24:50,920
Speaker 2: a day. It was like eighty five a week. He's

515
00:24:50,960 --> 00:24:52,960
Speaker 2: not calling the police eighty five times. So they changed

516
00:24:53,000 --> 00:24:55,360
Speaker 2: up the freezer, right right, Yeah, they changed up the freezer.

517
00:24:55,440 --> 00:24:58,760
Speaker 2: So all the crime numbers are complete bs, the complete nonsense.

518
00:24:59,160 --> 00:25:02,040
Speaker 6: Correct. Even even in my district. I know for a fact,

519
00:25:02,119 --> 00:25:05,480
Speaker 6: I have chain stores that aren't calling because they know

520
00:25:05,720 --> 00:25:07,439
Speaker 6: them out. If it's under nine to fifty, they're not

521
00:25:07,480 --> 00:25:09,000
Speaker 6: going to call. No, I'm not going to wish.

522
00:25:09,160 --> 00:25:11,280
Speaker 2: You're right. Prop forty seven is the rudle of a

523
00:25:11,320 --> 00:25:15,160
Speaker 2: lot of this evil, but it's led to system failure,

524
00:25:15,960 --> 00:25:20,960
Speaker 2: and it seems like we need a system reboot. Like

525
00:25:21,880 --> 00:25:25,640
Speaker 2: doing this this bill. It might be useful as harm

526
00:25:25,720 --> 00:25:30,760
Speaker 2: reduction abuse substance abuse treatment. Yeah, you could see that

527
00:25:30,800 --> 00:25:33,679
Speaker 2: it would do some good, except all the other parts

528
00:25:33,840 --> 00:25:35,000
Speaker 2: have to be addressed as well.

529
00:25:35,000 --> 00:25:36,120
Speaker 1: You do this by itself.

530
00:25:37,480 --> 00:25:39,520
Speaker 2: I don't know if it ends up accomplishing anything other

531
00:25:39,600 --> 00:25:41,919
Speaker 2: than we up spending ten billion dollars.

532
00:25:42,240 --> 00:25:45,080
Speaker 6: You're one hundred percent right, and I agree, but we

533
00:25:45,440 --> 00:25:47,399
Speaker 6: do need at least do something. But on the other end,

534
00:25:47,440 --> 00:25:49,359
Speaker 6: we do need to hold people accountable. So it would

535
00:25:49,400 --> 00:25:52,399
Speaker 6: be great to also bring that part in as well,

536
00:25:52,480 --> 00:25:55,240
Speaker 6: And I think a THA twelve is just going to

537
00:25:55,240 --> 00:25:57,560
Speaker 6: be at least one small step back to that. And

538
00:25:57,960 --> 00:26:01,800
Speaker 6: again let my colleagues on the other side, I'll learn that. Hey, look,

539
00:26:01,800 --> 00:26:04,320
Speaker 6: the voters have spoken. They want to have consequences back,

540
00:26:04,760 --> 00:26:06,240
Speaker 6: they want to hold people accountable.

541
00:26:07,200 --> 00:26:09,800
Speaker 3: All right, we appreciate talking to you again. Juan alanis

556
00:26:50,080 --> 00:26:54,240
Speaker 1: He was actually tracked to ti Wana, Mexico, and the

Speaker 1: Mexican government arrested him and he was returned to the

558
00:26:57,400 --> 00:27:01,119
Speaker 1: United States. His name is Sergio Andrew Garse. We covered

559
00:27:01,119 --> 00:27:04,240
Speaker 1: the story last week because he horribly beat up a

560
00:27:04,280 --> 00:27:06,720
Speaker 1: woman who was working on her garden in East la

561
00:27:06,800 --> 00:27:09,200
Speaker 1: an older woman, and pulled her pants down and tried

562
00:27:09,200 --> 00:27:11,840
Speaker 1: to sexually assault her. So and they.

563
00:27:11,880 --> 00:27:14,000
Speaker 3: Linked him to a whole bunch of other attacks and

564
00:27:14,080 --> 00:27:17,240
Speaker 3: he has been nabbed. Not much of an update John

565
00:27:17,280 --> 00:27:22,600
Speaker 3: on Mitch McConnell except one thing I learned. He's had

566
00:27:22,600 --> 00:27:26,800
Speaker 3: a series of incidents, not just tripping recently. There's a

567
00:27:26,880 --> 00:27:30,320
Speaker 3: number of problems he's had this year. He's eighty one

568
00:27:30,400 --> 00:27:33,320
Speaker 3: years old. And if you haven't heard, he froze up

569
00:27:33,920 --> 00:27:37,040
Speaker 3: during a news conference update this morning in front of reporters.

570
00:27:37,440 --> 00:27:39,320
Speaker 3: For what you say, eleven or twelve seconds he couldn't

571
00:27:39,320 --> 00:27:41,400
Speaker 3: say anything, Yes, eleven seconds exactly.

572
00:27:41,440 --> 00:27:42,040
Speaker 1: We timed it.

573
00:27:42,560 --> 00:27:45,280
Speaker 3: Yeah, Well, he had fallen and suffered a concussion and

574
00:27:45,280 --> 00:27:48,320
Speaker 3: a broken rib at a dinner in March. He was

575
00:27:48,359 --> 00:27:51,680
Speaker 3: absent for the Senate for six weeks. He had polio

576
00:27:51,760 --> 00:27:55,240
Speaker 3: as a child. I didn't know that. On multiple occasions,

577
00:27:55,280 --> 00:27:57,720
Speaker 3: it says he's not been able to hear questions from reporters.

578
00:27:57,760 --> 00:28:01,880
Speaker 1: He's too old. All these people, he's.

579
00:28:01,720 --> 00:28:06,440
Speaker 2: Like Feinstein and Biden, they're too old. I had a dad,

580
00:28:06,480 --> 00:28:10,000
Speaker 2: it was eighty one. He wouldn't have been capable of

581
00:28:10,280 --> 00:28:11,840
Speaker 2: being a senator or a president.

582
00:28:12,440 --> 00:28:15,399
Speaker 3: It's over, you know, But didn't you make a speech

583
00:28:15,480 --> 00:28:18,479
Speaker 3: this week about the craziness of people retiring and what

584
00:28:18,520 --> 00:28:19,320
Speaker 3: else are you going to do?

585
00:28:19,400 --> 00:28:24,520
Speaker 2: And no, if you're still functioning. The judgment's not on

586
00:28:24,560 --> 00:28:29,359
Speaker 2: the age. It's on whether you're functioning, and with age

587
00:28:29,760 --> 00:28:32,679
Speaker 2: is less and less functioning. Until you're not, you're you

588
00:28:32,720 --> 00:28:33,320
Speaker 2: can't do it.

589
00:28:34,880 --> 00:28:37,639
Speaker 1: Yeah, you speculate he might have had an schemic stroke.

590
00:28:37,880 --> 00:28:40,520
Speaker 1: So it looked like to me, which can you freeze

591
00:28:40,560 --> 00:28:44,000
Speaker 1: you for a period of time? I had, I had.

592
00:28:44,320 --> 00:28:48,400
Speaker 2: We had five relatives check out within a three year period,

593
00:28:48,840 --> 00:28:51,640
Speaker 2: both mothers, both fathers, and my aunt. I saw all

594
00:28:51,720 --> 00:28:55,040
Speaker 2: kinds of stuff, I really saw all kinds of amazing stuff.

595
00:28:55,240 --> 00:28:57,400
Speaker 2: I had no idea the body and mind could decay

596
00:28:57,520 --> 00:29:00,520
Speaker 2: the way I saw in that three year period, so

597
00:29:00,760 --> 00:29:04,200
Speaker 2: I could. I could spot these signs now, and everybody's

598
00:29:04,240 --> 00:29:05,520
Speaker 2: just pissing in the wind on this.

599
00:29:06,200 --> 00:29:07,160
Speaker 1: Yeah.

600
00:29:07,200 --> 00:29:09,280
Speaker 3: Well there's no further update except he did come back

601
00:29:09,280 --> 00:29:11,520
Speaker 3: out and he said he's fine and he answered questions

602
00:29:11,560 --> 00:29:13,040
Speaker 3: and I don't know. They took him through the back

603
00:29:13,120 --> 00:29:15,840
Speaker 3: room and sat them down for five minutes and they recovered.

604
00:29:16,160 --> 00:29:18,400
Speaker 2: You know, there's a lot of there's other generations that

605
00:29:18,440 --> 00:29:20,200
Speaker 2: are to run this place for a while.

606
00:29:20,280 --> 00:29:23,560
Speaker 1: They had their day. They're done exactly Conway.

607
00:29:23,880 --> 00:29:26,880
Speaker 7: I can't believe you're still this angry after three hours.

608
00:29:27,360 --> 00:29:30,280
Speaker 7: You didn't get any of that anger out. Then I

609
00:29:30,320 --> 00:29:32,360
Speaker 7: go home and a yell in the car, all right,

610
00:29:32,360 --> 00:29:35,400
Speaker 7: Deborah Mark, your news director, news anchor.

611
00:29:35,840 --> 00:29:36,160
Speaker 1: Yes.

612
00:29:36,600 --> 00:29:38,520
Speaker 7: She I ran into her in the hallway and she

613
00:29:38,560 --> 00:29:40,960
Speaker 7: said she's exhausted. And I said, oh, I got a

614
00:29:40,960 --> 00:29:43,560
Speaker 7: good tip for you actually, for exhaustion in the workplace.

615
00:29:43,560 --> 00:29:44,920
Speaker 1: And she says, oh, yeah, what is that? Tim?

616
00:29:45,200 --> 00:29:47,320
Speaker 7: I said, when you're driving home tonight on the one

617
00:29:47,360 --> 00:29:50,400
Speaker 7: oh one freeway and it's crowded and you see, you know,

618
00:29:50,440 --> 00:29:53,400
Speaker 7: guys working at Caltrans roll the window down and say

619
00:29:53,440 --> 00:29:55,680
Speaker 7: to the guys at Caltrans I'm exhausted.

620
00:29:59,720 --> 00:30:03,040
Speaker 1: Yeah, see how that goes. You've got a good reaction

621
00:30:03,120 --> 00:30:03,640
Speaker 1: to that. Huh.

622
00:30:03,680 --> 00:30:11,640
Speaker 7: Imagine that I'm exhausted. Air conditioning radio three hour shift.

623
00:30:13,080 --> 00:30:15,200
Speaker 7: You're gonna take that up with her? I will, all right.

624
00:30:15,240 --> 00:30:17,360
Speaker 7: Alex Stone is coming on to talk about the temperature.

625
00:30:17,360 --> 00:30:21,040
