1
00:00:00,640 --> 00:00:02,040
Speaker 1: Can't. I am six forty.

2
00:00:02,120 --> 00:00:05,560
Speaker 2: You're listening to the John Cobel Podcast on the iHeartRadio app.

3
00:00:06,320 --> 00:00:08,920
Speaker 2: We're on every day from one until four or until

4
00:00:08,960 --> 00:00:11,760
Speaker 2: we get tired, and then after four o'clock you can

5
00:00:11,760 --> 00:00:14,280
Speaker 2: get us on the iHeartRadio app John Cobelt Show on

6
00:00:14,320 --> 00:00:16,439
Speaker 2: the band that's the podcast version. Listen to what you

7
00:00:16,560 --> 00:00:20,000
Speaker 2: missed Today is Friday, which means two rounds of the

8
00:00:20,000 --> 00:00:24,520
Speaker 2: Moistline in the three o'clock hour, and we have a

9
00:00:24,560 --> 00:00:27,800
Speaker 2: lot of good stuff to cover later this hour, after

10
00:00:27,840 --> 00:00:32,120
Speaker 2: one thirty, we're gonna have California Congressman Kevin Kylie. He's

11
00:00:32,120 --> 00:00:36,920
Speaker 2: a Republican and he's the one who wrote the resolution

12
00:00:37,720 --> 00:00:40,240
Speaker 2: that the House and the Senate passed and that Trump

13
00:00:40,280 --> 00:00:46,599
Speaker 2: is going to sign to block Newsom's gas powered car ban,

14
00:00:47,640 --> 00:00:52,520
Speaker 2: the electric car mandate. Kevin Kylie wrote, wrote the legislation

15
00:00:52,640 --> 00:00:56,720
Speaker 2: here that blocks it. And I want to tell you, well,

16
00:00:56,720 --> 00:00:59,840
Speaker 2: we're gonna do this in parts, because this is a

17
00:01:00,000 --> 00:01:03,560
Speaker 2: texts our lives greatly. Otherwise, you know, within ten years

18
00:01:03,640 --> 00:01:08,319
Speaker 2: will be forced into buying electric cars that most of

19
00:01:08,360 --> 00:01:11,720
Speaker 2: us don't want. And there really is no precedent for this.

20
00:01:13,520 --> 00:01:18,600
Speaker 2: It's obviously a horrible idea. It's just driven by Newsom's

21
00:01:18,720 --> 00:01:23,240
Speaker 2: religious beliefs. Is ideology. It makes no sense in the

22
00:01:23,240 --> 00:01:29,240
Speaker 2: real world whatsoever. The electric cars are very expensive, and

23
00:01:29,880 --> 00:01:33,520
Speaker 2: now that now that Congress is going to take away

24
00:01:33,560 --> 00:01:36,600
Speaker 2: a lot of the subsidies, they're going to be very,

25
00:01:36,840 --> 00:01:39,919
Speaker 2: very expensive. Nobody is going to be able to afford

26
00:01:39,959 --> 00:01:43,360
Speaker 2: it other than the wealthy. So it's a technology that

27
00:01:43,600 --> 00:01:50,120
Speaker 2: most people can't afford. Secondly, the electric cars generally, if

28
00:01:50,160 --> 00:01:56,720
Speaker 2: you go out on the road, there's few places to charge,

29
00:01:56,880 --> 00:02:01,120
Speaker 2: and many of the charging stations are broken or slow

30
00:02:01,960 --> 00:02:06,040
Speaker 2: or crowded. Somebody wrote to me just this week that

31
00:02:06,200 --> 00:02:08,959
Speaker 2: you go to Costco and there are fights at the

32
00:02:09,080 --> 00:02:12,680
Speaker 2: charging stations because you get behind somebody. They may be

33
00:02:13,000 --> 00:02:15,600
Speaker 2: sitting there for an hour, and if you're fifth in line.

34
00:02:15,800 --> 00:02:17,800
Speaker 2: This is this is no this is no good. It

35
00:02:17,880 --> 00:02:21,880
Speaker 2: just doesn't work. If if they had an electric car

36
00:02:22,480 --> 00:02:25,680
Speaker 2: that worked like a gas power car, in other words,

37
00:02:26,440 --> 00:02:29,680
Speaker 2: you started up, you can go four hundred miles, takes

38
00:02:29,720 --> 00:02:32,520
Speaker 2: five minutes to recharge. You don't have to worry about

39
00:02:32,520 --> 00:02:34,919
Speaker 2: the temperature, you don't have to worry about the elevation,

40
00:02:35,080 --> 00:02:36,880
Speaker 2: whether you're driving uphill or downhill.

41
00:02:38,360 --> 00:02:41,280
Speaker 1: There's there's there's gas, there's there's.

42
00:02:41,120 --> 00:02:47,200
Speaker 2: Charging stations placed as frequently as gas stations. Right, you

43
00:02:47,280 --> 00:02:50,480
Speaker 2: just have you match the exact infrastructure we have now,

44
00:02:51,280 --> 00:02:54,639
Speaker 2: and you build an electrical grid many many, many more

45
00:02:54,680 --> 00:02:57,799
Speaker 2: times than what we have. I mean, I think somebody

46
00:02:57,800 --> 00:03:00,480
Speaker 2: wrote we would need like twenty nuclear power place plans

47
00:03:00,919 --> 00:03:04,000
Speaker 2: in order to provide the electricity needed. So when you

48
00:03:04,040 --> 00:03:06,040
Speaker 2: when you lay all that out and all I laid

49
00:03:06,040 --> 00:03:09,320
Speaker 2: out is true, what does that tell you There's there's

50
00:03:09,360 --> 00:03:15,160
Speaker 2: some other ideology at work here. It's not about you're

51
00:03:15,200 --> 00:03:17,520
Speaker 2: worried about climate change or the quality of the air

52
00:03:18,120 --> 00:03:23,440
Speaker 2: because you did not set up the infrastructure to facilitate it. Right,

53
00:03:23,919 --> 00:03:30,320
Speaker 2: No charging stations, they're broken, they're slow, there's lines, we

54
00:03:30,360 --> 00:03:33,160
Speaker 2: don't have the power plans to supply the electricity. You

55
00:03:33,200 --> 00:03:35,560
Speaker 2: just just keep running all this in your mind and

56
00:03:35,600 --> 00:03:40,360
Speaker 2: it's like, Okay, so I did they doing this? John

57
00:03:40,400 --> 00:03:46,920
Speaker 2: Fleischmann has a piece. He's got the flash report on substack.

58
00:03:47,000 --> 00:03:49,560
Speaker 2: You go to the flash report dot substack dot com.

59
00:03:50,240 --> 00:03:57,000
Speaker 2: And he's got a piece. Today when after Kevin Kylie

60
00:03:58,480 --> 00:04:02,200
Speaker 2: wrote up this resolution, it passed two forty six to

61
00:04:02,240 --> 00:04:05,440
Speaker 2: one sixty four in the House. They got thirty five

62
00:04:05,520 --> 00:04:10,240
Speaker 2: Democrats to vote for this. So it won by eighty votes,

63
00:04:12,840 --> 00:04:15,800
Speaker 2: and then it went to the Senate and it passed

64
00:04:15,800 --> 00:04:19,719
Speaker 2: fifty one to forty four. Trump's could assign it. And

65
00:04:19,760 --> 00:04:22,160
Speaker 2: so you may be saying, well, if it passed the House,

66
00:04:22,160 --> 00:04:24,760
Speaker 2: it passed the Senate, and he actually had a fair

67
00:04:24,880 --> 00:04:28,920
Speaker 2: number of Democrats in the House. What's what's Newsom doing suing?

68
00:04:29,520 --> 00:04:34,000
Speaker 2: Because that was the big story. Newsom is suing to

69
00:04:34,040 --> 00:04:40,279
Speaker 2: fight this, you know, to fight Trump. What's he hanging on? Well,

70
00:04:40,320 --> 00:04:43,400
Speaker 2: Fleischman writes, the Clean Air Act of nineteen seventy gave

71
00:04:43,440 --> 00:04:47,599
Speaker 2: California a special exemption. We could set more stringent auto

72
00:04:47,640 --> 00:04:52,960
Speaker 2: emission standards than the federal government. But every time California

73
00:04:53,000 --> 00:04:56,479
Speaker 2: had an idea, they had to apply to the Environmental

74
00:04:56,520 --> 00:05:00,440
Speaker 2: Protection Agency for a waiver. No other state was given

75
00:05:00,480 --> 00:05:06,920
Speaker 2: this exception, but California, because if its unique topography has

76
00:05:07,040 --> 00:05:11,000
Speaker 2: history of air pollution problems. Now, over the years, California

77
00:05:11,040 --> 00:05:16,320
Speaker 2: has received over seventy five waivers, and there are eleven

78
00:05:16,400 --> 00:05:20,040
Speaker 2: states that adopted California's rules. So when California sets a

79
00:05:20,120 --> 00:05:23,720
Speaker 2: rule that affects forty percent of the US car market,

80
00:05:23,960 --> 00:05:27,560
Speaker 2: it means that automakers have to build a different car

81
00:05:28,240 --> 00:05:31,359
Speaker 2: because California says so, and because the other states, the

82
00:05:31,360 --> 00:05:38,599
Speaker 2: other eleven states just copy. Well, in California, by twenty

83
00:05:38,640 --> 00:05:42,000
Speaker 2: thirty five, eighty percent of new car sales must be electric.

84
00:05:43,279 --> 00:05:46,000
Speaker 2: And for the reasons I just stated, that's clearly would

85
00:05:46,000 --> 00:05:50,720
Speaker 2: be a disaster. Oh, another factor I didn't even didn't

86
00:05:50,720 --> 00:05:54,640
Speaker 2: even mention people who live in apartment buildings. For the

87
00:05:54,680 --> 00:05:58,120
Speaker 2: most part, there's no charging stations in apartment buildings.

88
00:05:59,240 --> 00:06:00,760
Speaker 1: You know you could plug if you own a house.

89
00:06:00,800 --> 00:06:02,880
Speaker 2: I guess you can plug into an outdoor outlet on

90
00:06:02,920 --> 00:06:09,040
Speaker 2: your lawn or your garage, but you have to plug

91
00:06:09,080 --> 00:06:11,680
Speaker 2: it in. It's for a lot of cars, you got

92
00:06:11,680 --> 00:06:15,480
Speaker 2: to plug it in all night, six eight hours to recharge.

93
00:06:17,880 --> 00:06:22,960
Speaker 2: The Constitution gives Congress the power to regulate interstate commerce.

94
00:06:24,120 --> 00:06:28,200
Speaker 2: So since California's rules impact a dozen states, it creates

95
00:06:28,240 --> 00:06:32,680
Speaker 2: in effect a national standard. And that's the legal fight here.

96
00:06:32,720 --> 00:06:36,600
Speaker 2: Why should California's priorities force people in Ohio or Texas

97
00:06:36,800 --> 00:06:40,359
Speaker 2: to buy electric vehicles? Why are we being forced to

98
00:06:40,360 --> 00:06:42,080
Speaker 2: buy electric vehicles?

99
00:06:42,640 --> 00:06:43,000
Speaker 1: Now?

100
00:06:44,080 --> 00:06:48,920
Speaker 2: When we come back Newsom and his little mini knee.

101
00:06:49,640 --> 00:06:52,240
Speaker 2: Have you seen this guy Rob Bonta. He's like a

102
00:06:52,240 --> 00:06:55,520
Speaker 2: miniature version of Newsom. They both have the same slick

103
00:06:55,560 --> 00:07:00,320
Speaker 2: hair and slick suits and whatever Newsom says, BoNT to head,

104
00:07:00,360 --> 00:07:02,120
Speaker 2: Bob's along, I agree.

105
00:07:02,160 --> 00:07:02,800
Speaker 1: I agree.

106
00:07:03,160 --> 00:07:09,400
Speaker 2: Bota wants to be governor someday, and so his his hero,

107
00:07:11,360 --> 00:07:14,640
Speaker 2: the man he wishes to imitate his Anwisom. So they're

108
00:07:14,720 --> 00:07:19,480
Speaker 2: always together, very close. And I was watching the press

109
00:07:19,480 --> 00:07:22,280
Speaker 2: conference today and these two guys with their slick hair

110
00:07:22,280 --> 00:07:25,400
Speaker 2: and their slick suits are also very slick in the

111
00:07:25,440 --> 00:07:29,000
Speaker 2: way they argue something. And if you're not smart or

112
00:07:29,000 --> 00:07:32,200
Speaker 2: you're not paying attention, you might say, oh gosh, they

113
00:07:32,240 --> 00:07:35,960
Speaker 2: have a point there. But they're lying. They're misleading you.

114
00:07:36,840 --> 00:07:38,920
Speaker 2: That's the beauty of what they do. That's how they

115
00:07:38,920 --> 00:07:41,680
Speaker 2: got where they are. They're really good at lying and

116
00:07:41,720 --> 00:07:45,400
Speaker 2: misleading the average person who's either a not that bright

117
00:07:45,560 --> 00:07:48,520
Speaker 2: or b not paying that much attention. And we're going

118
00:07:48,560 --> 00:07:50,880
Speaker 2: to play you a press conference because another great report

119
00:07:50,880 --> 00:07:56,360
Speaker 2: from Ashley Zavalla from KCRA channel three and Sacramento that's

120
00:07:56,400 --> 00:07:59,520
Speaker 2: the NBC station there, and again appears to be the

121
00:07:59,520 --> 00:08:03,760
Speaker 2: only report covering what goes on in Sacramento government. So

122
00:08:03,800 --> 00:08:05,960
Speaker 2: we're gonna play you her report and you'll see how

123
00:08:06,000 --> 00:08:07,520
Speaker 2: everything I just said plays out.

124
00:08:08,440 --> 00:08:12,480
Speaker 3: You're listening to John Cobelt on demand from KFI A

125
00:08:12,640 --> 00:08:13,960
Speaker 3: M six forty.

126
00:08:15,000 --> 00:08:18,480
Speaker 1: Okay, So last segment, we set up the battle lines. Here.

127
00:08:18,720 --> 00:08:22,440
Speaker 2: It is Gavin Newsom and his mini me Attorney General,

128
00:08:22,480 --> 00:08:25,920
Speaker 2: a little short, greasy haired guy. Well, what's his name,

129
00:08:26,000 --> 00:08:28,760
Speaker 2: Rob Bonta. That's right, Yeah, Newsom is the tall, greasy

130
00:08:28,760 --> 00:08:29,240
Speaker 2: haired guy.

131
00:08:29,560 --> 00:08:31,120
Speaker 1: And they do have similar hairs.

132
00:08:32,240 --> 00:08:37,720
Speaker 2: That's right, slick suits, greasy hair, and very intense, very

133
00:08:38,120 --> 00:08:42,360
Speaker 2: self righteous. I mean Newsom was really preening. And we'll

134
00:08:42,360 --> 00:08:44,320
Speaker 2: get to that in a second. I want you to

135
00:08:44,360 --> 00:08:50,320
Speaker 2: hear Ashley Zavala's report on Newsom and Mini Me Bonta.

136
00:08:50,880 --> 00:08:54,040
Speaker 2: They have a lawsuit against Trump. The Senate is blocking

137
00:08:54,520 --> 00:09:01,000
Speaker 2: California's ban on gas on gas powered cars, and she's

138
00:09:01,000 --> 00:09:03,800
Speaker 2: with KCRA Channel three in Sacramento.

139
00:09:04,080 --> 00:09:06,400
Speaker 4: Here firm and our resolve. At this moment.

140
00:09:06,480 --> 00:09:09,520
Speaker 5: On the roof of a state building overlooking the Sacramento skyline,

141
00:09:09,600 --> 00:09:12,640
Speaker 5: California leaders announced their latest lawsuit they say is in

142
00:09:12,679 --> 00:09:13,840
Speaker 5: the name of clean air.

143
00:09:14,080 --> 00:09:16,120
Speaker 4: I'll be seeing the Trump administration in court.

144
00:09:16,320 --> 00:09:19,200
Speaker 5: Attorney General Rob Bonta and Governor Gavin Newsom held the

145
00:09:19,240 --> 00:09:22,240
Speaker 5: news conference right after the US Senate voted to stop

146
00:09:22,280 --> 00:09:24,880
Speaker 5: California's ban on the sale of new gas powered cars

147
00:09:24,920 --> 00:09:26,120
Speaker 5: by twenty thirty five.

148
00:09:26,080 --> 00:09:28,960
Speaker 6: Ladyshieded to change the rules that have been established in

149
00:09:29,000 --> 00:09:31,920
Speaker 6: the United States Senate protocols that have been well established

150
00:09:32,160 --> 00:09:38,520
Speaker 6: for centuries, in order to attack California in order to

151
00:09:38,600 --> 00:09:39,560
Speaker 6: pollute more.

152
00:09:39,840 --> 00:09:42,880
Speaker 5: State leaders argue the Clean Airraft has allowed California for

153
00:09:42,960 --> 00:09:46,120
Speaker 5: decades to set its own vehicle emission standards, and Congress

154
00:09:46,160 --> 00:09:47,719
Speaker 5: is illegally trampling on that.

155
00:09:47,880 --> 00:09:52,000
Speaker 6: Our lawsuit will be about ensuring California can enforce its

156
00:09:52,200 --> 00:09:53,000
Speaker 6: state laws.

157
00:09:53,240 --> 00:09:56,280
Speaker 5: But California voters never voted for the state's ban on

158
00:09:56,320 --> 00:09:57,920
Speaker 5: the sale of new gas powered cars.

159
00:09:58,280 --> 00:09:59,960
Speaker 7: Neither did California's legislature.

160
00:10:00,559 --> 00:10:03,240
Speaker 5: The move was done by Governor Gavin Newsom's administration in

161
00:10:03,280 --> 00:10:06,520
Speaker 5: twenty twenty, when he signed an executive order and allowed

162
00:10:06,520 --> 00:10:09,840
Speaker 5: the unelected California Air Resources Board to set the rule.

163
00:10:10,280 --> 00:10:11,959
Speaker 7: He has said it's their right.

164
00:10:11,920 --> 00:10:14,000
Speaker 5: But I asked if that process played a role in

165
00:10:14,040 --> 00:10:17,360
Speaker 5: the federal government's action, could there have been maybe more

166
00:10:17,400 --> 00:10:19,559
Speaker 5: buy in and maybe not be in the situation have.

167
00:10:19,559 --> 00:10:20,760
Speaker 1: A process to do well.

168
00:10:20,800 --> 00:10:23,319
Speaker 4: We had buy in from people.

169
00:10:23,080 --> 00:10:26,000
Speaker 8: All across the United States. We had buy in from

170
00:10:26,440 --> 00:10:29,440
Speaker 8: large states. Big states would buy in from the public.

171
00:10:29,920 --> 00:10:33,439
Speaker 8: You saw the buying opportunities. We maintain a flexible framework.

172
00:10:33,640 --> 00:10:37,040
Speaker 8: We were engaged in good faith conversation on that flexibility.

173
00:10:37,080 --> 00:10:40,640
Speaker 8: We're not ideological about this, but you need to send

174
00:10:40,679 --> 00:10:44,160
Speaker 8: signals so you can create the conditions where companies like

175
00:10:44,240 --> 00:10:46,319
Speaker 8: Tesla are born.

176
00:10:46,520 --> 00:10:49,560
Speaker 9: I actually like EV's I drive an EV myself, but

177
00:10:49,720 --> 00:10:51,880
Speaker 9: Californian should be able to shoot drive the car of

178
00:10:51,880 --> 00:10:52,400
Speaker 9: their choice.

179
00:10:52,440 --> 00:10:53,880
Speaker 4: That choice shouldn't be made for them.

180
00:10:54,040 --> 00:10:57,560
Speaker 5: Republican California Congressman Kevin Kylie wrote the resolution that's now

181
00:10:57,600 --> 00:10:58,760
Speaker 5: on the President's desk.

182
00:10:59,080 --> 00:11:02,000
Speaker 7: You know, see over Holming. Majority of California drivers have

183
00:11:02,080 --> 00:11:03,120
Speaker 7: gas powered cars.

184
00:11:03,400 --> 00:11:06,800
Speaker 9: This van, which is completely unworkable, which takes away basic

185
00:11:06,880 --> 00:11:09,280
Speaker 9: rights of Californians, is the last thing that our state needs.

186
00:11:09,280 --> 00:11:11,839
Speaker 9: And so thankfully, who've had to buy partisan effort here

187
00:11:11,880 --> 00:11:13,120
Speaker 9: to restore some common sense.

188
00:11:13,360 --> 00:11:15,600
Speaker 5: Again, this issue is in the hands of Donald Trump,

189
00:11:15,640 --> 00:11:19,160
Speaker 5: and the Attorney General has said once he signs the legislation,

190
00:11:19,679 --> 00:11:23,200
Speaker 5: then California will file its lawsuit. Where exactly that lawsuit

191
00:11:23,200 --> 00:11:24,640
Speaker 5: will be filed is to be seen.

192
00:11:25,080 --> 00:11:26,040
Speaker 7: He says, stay tuned.

193
00:11:26,720 --> 00:11:29,640
Speaker 2: They want to take away your take away your right

194
00:11:29,720 --> 00:11:32,680
Speaker 2: to buy a gas powered car. None of us voted

195
00:11:32,720 --> 00:11:38,040
Speaker 2: on this, nor did the legislature. Now they're saying the

196
00:11:38,080 --> 00:11:40,640
Speaker 2: Trump administration's effort to.

197
00:11:40,679 --> 00:11:43,439
Speaker 1: Block this law is illegal.

198
00:11:46,840 --> 00:11:51,600
Speaker 2: It's legal to force us to buy an electric car

199
00:11:52,520 --> 00:11:56,160
Speaker 2: when the electric cars are unaffordable, when there is not

200
00:11:56,320 --> 00:12:00,480
Speaker 2: much of a charging network, it takes too long, there broken,

201
00:12:00,920 --> 00:12:04,400
Speaker 2: it's crowded, you don't have an electrical grid to support this.

202
00:12:06,000 --> 00:12:09,440
Speaker 2: And by a dictate from the governor. By the way,

203
00:12:09,559 --> 00:12:13,120
Speaker 2: he did this during the lockdown, so it's not like

204
00:12:13,200 --> 00:12:17,599
Speaker 2: anybody could form an organization to protest during the lockdown.

205
00:12:17,800 --> 00:12:23,800
Speaker 2: He slips us this and the legislature. You will never

206
00:12:23,840 --> 00:12:27,720
Speaker 2: find a bigger bunch of cowards than the legislators. Why

207
00:12:27,720 --> 00:12:29,400
Speaker 2: did you go on the record and vote for this,

208
00:12:30,679 --> 00:12:34,400
Speaker 2: but in Gavin Newsom turn this into a public resolution.

209
00:12:34,600 --> 00:12:36,560
Speaker 2: Do you think this would fly if most of the

210
00:12:36,600 --> 00:12:39,680
Speaker 2: state can't afford an electric car and doesn't want one,

211
00:12:40,200 --> 00:12:43,360
Speaker 2: what do you think the vote would be against electric cars?

212
00:12:43,360 --> 00:12:46,200
Speaker 2: Seventy five to twenty five. I bet you'd be seventy

213
00:12:46,200 --> 00:12:50,400
Speaker 2: five to twenty five against. And if the representatives in

214
00:12:50,480 --> 00:12:53,200
Speaker 2: Sacramento voted the will of the people, it would be

215
00:12:53,240 --> 00:12:58,440
Speaker 2: seventy five twenty five against. And then he's got the

216
00:12:58,480 --> 00:13:00,319
Speaker 2: nerve to say, well, it led to the creation of

217
00:13:00,400 --> 00:13:06,160
Speaker 2: companies like Tesla. Elon Musk move Tesla headquarters out of

218
00:13:06,200 --> 00:13:11,480
Speaker 2: California because of Newson's oppressive government, and Newsom didn't care.

219
00:13:11,600 --> 00:13:14,040
Speaker 2: Basically said, don't let the door hitch in the ass

220
00:13:14,080 --> 00:13:18,960
Speaker 2: on the way out. He is so fake, he is

221
00:13:19,040 --> 00:13:22,720
Speaker 2: so phony. But that's not even the whole story here.

222
00:13:24,040 --> 00:13:27,600
Speaker 2: I just want to point out he's talking about polluters.

223
00:13:29,440 --> 00:13:33,719
Speaker 2: Carbon dioxide is not a pollutant. If he says that,

224
00:13:33,760 --> 00:13:39,200
Speaker 2: he's lying, carbon dioxide is what we exhale. We do

225
00:13:39,280 --> 00:13:45,520
Speaker 2: not exhale pollution. Most prominent guest that comes out of

226
00:13:45,520 --> 00:13:52,280
Speaker 2: the tailpipe is carbon dioxide. There may be a lot

227
00:13:52,280 --> 00:13:56,480
Speaker 2: of other pollutants, but that's not one of them.

228
00:13:56,720 --> 00:13:59,840
Speaker 1: Is the argument for doing this.

229
00:14:00,600 --> 00:14:06,280
Speaker 2: It's a greenhouse gas, but a greenhouse gas like carbon dioxide,

230
00:14:06,320 --> 00:14:11,520
Speaker 2: is not a pollutant because that's what keeps trees growing,

231
00:14:12,280 --> 00:14:17,640
Speaker 2: that's what keeps grass growing, plants flowers. It needs carbon

232
00:14:17,679 --> 00:14:21,880
Speaker 2: dioxide as fuel, otherwise we wouldn't have any trees or

233
00:14:21,960 --> 00:14:25,800
Speaker 2: grass or plants. So there's no way. You can talk

234
00:14:25,840 --> 00:14:31,160
Speaker 2: about a substance that is vital to plant grass and

235
00:14:31,240 --> 00:14:35,600
Speaker 2: tree life, you can't describe it as a pollutant. But

236
00:14:35,760 --> 00:14:39,640
Speaker 2: he knows that most people don't know the distinction. He

237
00:14:39,760 --> 00:14:42,720
Speaker 2: knows that seventy five percent of high school graduates are

238
00:14:42,760 --> 00:14:47,120
Speaker 2: not proficient in reading or math. So he knows he's

239
00:14:47,120 --> 00:14:50,440
Speaker 2: dealing with a dumb down population that spends most of

240
00:14:50,440 --> 00:14:57,400
Speaker 2: its time looking at social media, scrolling TikTok. Most people

241
00:14:57,440 --> 00:15:01,440
Speaker 2: have no idea whether they breathe in oxygen or carbon dioxide.

242
00:15:02,080 --> 00:15:02,960
Speaker 1: They have no idea.

243
00:15:05,600 --> 00:15:09,280
Speaker 2: The public's dumb, and a dumb public is a dictator's

244
00:15:09,320 --> 00:15:12,400
Speaker 2: best friend. Because you could put on a slick suit.

245
00:15:12,440 --> 00:15:14,720
Speaker 2: People like slick suits. You can put a lot of

246
00:15:14,760 --> 00:15:19,840
Speaker 2: grease in your hair. You could read off a script,

247
00:15:20,760 --> 00:15:23,120
Speaker 2: act authoritative, and a lot of people.

248
00:15:22,840 --> 00:15:27,120
Speaker 1: Go, oh yeah, yeah, yeah. Those oil companies they're polluters.

249
00:15:27,160 --> 00:15:28,680
Speaker 1: We got to stop the polluters from polluting.

250
00:15:28,720 --> 00:15:32,080
Speaker 2: It's like, no, gas and oil is the lifeblood of

251
00:15:32,080 --> 00:15:36,640
Speaker 2: modern civilization. Modern civilization does not exist without gas and oil.

252
00:15:37,320 --> 00:15:41,400
Speaker 2: We need much more of it, not less. Newsom has

253
00:15:41,480 --> 00:15:44,520
Speaker 2: never been quartered by anyone to explain why haven't you

254
00:15:44,600 --> 00:15:49,760
Speaker 2: created an infrastructure to supply the electricity. Why are there

255
00:15:49,760 --> 00:15:52,680
Speaker 2: so few charging stations? Why are a lot of them broken?

256
00:15:53,280 --> 00:15:57,480
Speaker 2: Why are a lot of them slow? Why are their

257
00:15:57,560 --> 00:16:04,360
Speaker 2: long lines and bad tempers? Because it's not about not

258
00:16:04,440 --> 00:16:09,600
Speaker 2: about an electric car innovation. It's about controlling our lives

259
00:16:09,600 --> 00:16:13,440
Speaker 2: and making our lives smaller and making us obedient to

260
00:16:13,520 --> 00:16:17,240
Speaker 2: the big machine in Sacramento. And I don't know why

261
00:16:17,280 --> 00:16:19,560
Speaker 2: people don't see it. It's what they've done in China,

262
00:16:19,920 --> 00:16:22,200
Speaker 2: it's what they've done in Russia, it's what they do

263
00:16:22,280 --> 00:16:28,120
Speaker 2: in Cuba. It's not an unheard of situation. But there's

264
00:16:28,120 --> 00:16:31,120
Speaker 2: a little piece of the US democracy here in California,

265
00:16:31,600 --> 00:16:34,760
Speaker 2: which really is a dictatorship because he didn't let us

266
00:16:34,840 --> 00:16:38,600
Speaker 2: vote on electric cars and banning gas powered cars. He

267
00:16:38,600 --> 00:16:40,920
Speaker 2: didn't let us vote, and neither of the legislature vote.

268
00:16:42,120 --> 00:16:43,960
Speaker 2: We're gonna have Kevin Kylie coming up in moments. We

269
00:16:44,040 --> 00:16:46,160
Speaker 2: got and I got another Ashley Zabala clip to play

270
00:16:46,560 --> 00:16:46,840
Speaker 2: on this.

271
00:16:48,280 --> 00:16:52,600
Speaker 3: You're listening to John Cobels on demand from KFI AM

272
00:16:52,640 --> 00:16:53,200
Speaker 3: six forty.

273
00:16:54,240 --> 00:16:56,600
Speaker 2: Sometime in the next few minutes, we're gonna have Kevin

274
00:16:56,680 --> 00:17:00,560
Speaker 2: Kylie on. He's the Republican Congressman Northern California. He wrote

275
00:17:00,920 --> 00:17:04,560
Speaker 2: the resolution that led to the Senate and the House

276
00:17:04,920 --> 00:17:11,600
Speaker 2: banning Gavin Newsom's gas powered car ban, banned the band.

277
00:17:11,640 --> 00:17:15,760
Speaker 2: You follow it, Well, let's say he reversed the gas

278
00:17:15,800 --> 00:17:19,440
Speaker 2: powered car ban here in California. That's what his resolution did.

279
00:17:19,760 --> 00:17:27,560
Speaker 2: And if Newsom and Bonta are suing to reverse the

280
00:17:27,600 --> 00:17:33,280
Speaker 2: reversal of the band saying that what the Senate did,

281
00:17:34,080 --> 00:17:39,200
Speaker 2: Kylie's resolution was illegal, that you can't keep California from

282
00:17:39,200 --> 00:17:42,440
Speaker 2: doing this. They got a special waiver from the government. Well,

283
00:17:42,480 --> 00:17:45,359
Speaker 2: what happens that the government pulls the waiver. We'll see

284
00:17:45,359 --> 00:17:50,440
Speaker 2: what Kevin Kylie's opinion on this is. I've talked about

285
00:17:50,520 --> 00:17:54,200
Speaker 2: Ashley Zavala. She's the TV reporter for kcra A Channel three,

286
00:17:54,359 --> 00:17:57,920
Speaker 2: the NBC affiliate in Sacramento. We played a clip of

287
00:17:58,240 --> 00:18:02,720
Speaker 2: her report a few minutes ago, questioning Gavin Newsom. Here's

288
00:18:02,760 --> 00:18:07,879
Speaker 2: another question Ashley Zavala went after Newsome with and listen

289
00:18:07,920 --> 00:18:10,800
Speaker 2: to this closely because this is another part of his

290
00:18:10,960 --> 00:18:12,480
Speaker 2: slick misdirection play.

291
00:18:12,920 --> 00:18:16,560
Speaker 5: Still, the overwhelming majority of California drivers are using gas

292
00:18:16,600 --> 00:18:19,880
Speaker 5: powered cars. I asked the governor if he's worried about.

293
00:18:19,640 --> 00:18:20,560
Speaker 7: This at all?

294
00:18:20,600 --> 00:18:23,000
Speaker 8: Of course, I imagine the majority of Americans were in

295
00:18:23,040 --> 00:18:25,600
Speaker 8: horse and buggies at a certain point.

296
00:18:25,680 --> 00:18:26,520
Speaker 4: It's called innovation.

297
00:18:26,600 --> 00:18:28,919
Speaker 8: You were still probably using a rotary phone before everyone

298
00:18:28,960 --> 00:18:35,200
Speaker 8: started using what appears most ubiquitous now the iPhone and

299
00:18:35,880 --> 00:18:36,720
Speaker 8: new platforms.

300
00:18:36,720 --> 00:18:38,919
Speaker 4: Called innovation, it's called progress.

301
00:18:40,320 --> 00:18:44,840
Speaker 8: And so we see the markets shifting globally in this space.

302
00:18:45,040 --> 00:18:48,080
Speaker 8: We've seen it shift dramatically in California. But we're here

303
00:18:48,080 --> 00:18:50,560
Speaker 8: for the long haul in California will continue to lead

304
00:18:51,320 --> 00:18:52,040
Speaker 8: in this space.

305
00:18:52,119 --> 00:18:54,720
Speaker 4: And you know, I just don't think our future is

306
00:18:56,000 --> 00:18:56,600
Speaker 4: more pollution.

307
00:18:57,000 --> 00:18:59,840
Speaker 8: I'd rather invest in the future and try to recreate

308
00:18:59,880 --> 00:19:00,320
Speaker 8: the past.

309
00:19:00,640 --> 00:19:01,280
Speaker 9: I don't remember that.

310
00:19:01,400 --> 00:19:04,199
Speaker 7: I don't remember in the government like mandating iPhones.

311
00:19:04,680 --> 00:19:08,560
Speaker 8: With this, we're not mandating. We're trying to reduce. We're

312
00:19:08,600 --> 00:19:13,199
Speaker 8: not mandating anything. We're saying, stop polluting through the tailpipe.

313
00:19:13,520 --> 00:19:16,199
Speaker 2: Listen to this. We are not mandating it. We're not

314
00:19:16,280 --> 00:19:21,480
Speaker 2: mandating electric cars. We're just stopping you from buying gas cars. Well,

315
00:19:21,520 --> 00:19:24,280
Speaker 2: those are the only two choices right now, aren't they.

316
00:19:25,440 --> 00:19:28,760
Speaker 2: And in the old days when we had rotary phones,

317
00:19:30,480 --> 00:19:36,600
Speaker 2: nobody blocked us from owning rotary phones. We decided to

318
00:19:36,680 --> 00:19:41,879
Speaker 2: switch to dial phones and then eventually, you know, the

319
00:19:41,880 --> 00:19:45,159
Speaker 2: push button touchtone phones, and then eventually the iPhones.

320
00:19:45,200 --> 00:19:45,920
Speaker 1: We chose that.

321
00:19:46,720 --> 00:19:48,359
Speaker 2: I have more to say on that in a little bit,

322
00:19:48,400 --> 00:19:49,840
Speaker 2: but I'm want to get to Kevin Kylie on now

323
00:19:49,840 --> 00:19:53,280
Speaker 2: that he's available. He's a Republican from Northern California in Congress,

324
00:19:53,359 --> 00:19:57,359
Speaker 2: formerly a legislator in Sacramento, and he wrote the Congressional

325
00:19:57,400 --> 00:20:01,320
Speaker 2: Review Act resolution which passed the hal House by about

326
00:20:01,320 --> 00:20:06,720
Speaker 2: eighty votes and pass the Senate by seven votes. Let's

327
00:20:06,800 --> 00:20:08,359
Speaker 2: go to Kevin Kylie. Kevin, how are you.

328
00:20:09,240 --> 00:20:10,280
Speaker 9: I'm doing great? How are you?

329
00:20:11,320 --> 00:20:15,119
Speaker 2: I'm doing wonderful, great work, by the way, coming up

330
00:20:15,119 --> 00:20:18,000
Speaker 2: with this resolution and the House and Senate passing it.

331
00:20:18,200 --> 00:20:21,359
Speaker 2: So Nuism and Bonte claims they're going to sue as

332
00:20:21,400 --> 00:20:24,760
Speaker 2: soon as Trump signs it. What do they have a

333
00:20:24,920 --> 00:20:26,919
Speaker 2: legal argument to sue?

334
00:20:28,840 --> 00:20:29,080
Speaker 4: No?

335
00:20:29,160 --> 00:20:31,280
Speaker 9: I mean they just sue about everything, right. It's like

336
00:20:32,080 --> 00:20:34,160
Speaker 9: when all you have as a hammer, everything looks like a nail.

337
00:20:34,200 --> 00:20:36,359
Speaker 9: They're suing the and UNCE do all suit every day.

338
00:20:36,920 --> 00:20:40,639
Speaker 9: In this case, it's you know, especially a killer because

339
00:20:40,760 --> 00:20:42,679
Speaker 9: what they're suing about is they don't want anyone to

340
00:20:42,720 --> 00:20:44,879
Speaker 9: be able to vote on this. You know, Newson issued

341
00:20:44,880 --> 00:20:47,960
Speaker 9: the gas car band as an executive order, as a

342
00:20:48,040 --> 00:20:51,000
Speaker 9: unilateral decree. It has never been voted on by the

343
00:20:51,000 --> 00:20:54,320
Speaker 9: people of California by the state legislature, so we had

344
00:20:54,359 --> 00:20:56,359
Speaker 9: to fight just to get any kind of a vote

345
00:20:56,359 --> 00:20:58,639
Speaker 9: on this, and once there was a vote, of course,

346
00:20:59,080 --> 00:21:03,240
Speaker 9: we won overwhel new some loss overwhelmingly. Thirty five Democrats,

347
00:21:03,240 --> 00:21:05,960
Speaker 9: as you said, in the House, joined us because the

348
00:21:06,000 --> 00:21:10,439
Speaker 9: policy is completely crazy, it's unworkable, and thankfully now it

349
00:21:10,520 --> 00:21:12,399
Speaker 9: is it's not actually going to happen.

350
00:21:12,880 --> 00:21:17,919
Speaker 2: They're making an argument that Congress can't reverse this government waiver.

351
00:21:18,680 --> 00:21:20,800
Speaker 2: If Trump had done it on his own, they would

352
00:21:20,840 --> 00:21:22,600
Speaker 2: have said, well, Trump can't do it on his own,

353
00:21:22,640 --> 00:21:23,600
Speaker 2: he has to have Congress.

354
00:21:24,119 --> 00:21:25,040
Speaker 1: Trump can't do it.

355
00:21:25,440 --> 00:21:27,440
Speaker 2: If Trump can't do it and Congress can do it,

356
00:21:27,600 --> 00:21:31,560
Speaker 2: can't do it. Who can reverse a government regulation or

357
00:21:31,600 --> 00:21:33,880
Speaker 2: a waiver. Somebody must be able to.

358
00:21:35,359 --> 00:21:37,960
Speaker 9: Yes, that's exactly right. That's exactly right. Is they don't

359
00:21:37,960 --> 00:21:39,600
Speaker 9: want anyone to be able to have a say on this.

360
00:21:39,680 --> 00:21:41,439
Speaker 9: The reason they were afraid of about is that they

361
00:21:41,520 --> 00:21:44,040
Speaker 9: knew they would lose, and that's exactly what happened. So

362
00:21:44,680 --> 00:21:46,960
Speaker 9: you know they're going to go and file their lawsuit.

363
00:21:47,040 --> 00:21:50,280
Speaker 9: But I think, you know, Californians can rest assured that

364
00:21:50,320 --> 00:21:51,760
Speaker 9: you're going to be able to drive the car of

365
00:21:51,800 --> 00:21:54,440
Speaker 9: your choice. You're not going to have Gavin Newsom taking

366
00:21:54,520 --> 00:21:55,880
Speaker 9: your car for you anytime soon.

367
00:21:56,200 --> 00:21:58,800
Speaker 2: You know what's so nuts about this, and I keep

368
00:21:58,800 --> 00:22:02,240
Speaker 2: going back to this point, is that we don't have

369
00:22:02,760 --> 00:22:06,359
Speaker 2: many charging stations. Many of the stations don't work, or

370
00:22:06,359 --> 00:22:09,199
Speaker 2: they're very slow where they're crowded. We don't have an

371
00:22:09,200 --> 00:22:13,200
Speaker 2: electrical grid to support this. The cars themselves are very expensive,

372
00:22:13,240 --> 00:22:15,800
Speaker 2: and they have all kinds of limitations based on temperature

373
00:22:16,040 --> 00:22:18,479
Speaker 2: and the kind of terrain you're driving on. I mean, simply,

374
00:22:18,520 --> 00:22:22,639
Speaker 2: the technology is not ready. And if if he actually

375
00:22:22,680 --> 00:22:27,480
Speaker 2: got away with his gas powered ban, it would be disastrous.

376
00:22:27,920 --> 00:22:30,200
Speaker 9: Well, that's right. And remember if he not only has

377
00:22:30,240 --> 00:22:33,000
Speaker 9: tried to ban gas powered cars, he wants to mandate

378
00:22:33,040 --> 00:22:40,440
Speaker 9: electric trucks and trains and buses and lawnmowers and leaf blowers.

379
00:22:41,280 --> 00:22:43,080
Speaker 9: And it's like they want to ban a new thing

380
00:22:43,200 --> 00:22:45,600
Speaker 9: every single day, even though in many of these bases,

381
00:22:45,760 --> 00:22:49,760
Speaker 9: as you note, the technology doesn't even exist. For like

382
00:22:49,800 --> 00:22:52,520
Speaker 9: electric trains, this isn't even a thing that is possible

383
00:22:52,600 --> 00:22:55,760
Speaker 9: right now, and yet they wanted to mandate it. And

384
00:22:55,800 --> 00:22:58,200
Speaker 9: by the way, this ban on gas powered cars, which

385
00:22:58,200 --> 00:23:01,400
Speaker 9: would ultimately have gone into effects in twenty thirty five,

386
00:23:01,440 --> 00:23:03,399
Speaker 9: it started to take effeck next year, so that a

387
00:23:03,400 --> 00:23:07,320
Speaker 9: certain percentage would and it would increase gradually until it's

388
00:23:07,320 --> 00:23:10,000
Speaker 9: twenty thirty five. So we really got this thing reversed

389
00:23:10,040 --> 00:23:10,920
Speaker 9: just in the nick of time.

390
00:23:12,160 --> 00:23:14,879
Speaker 2: Yeah, so you don't think he's really got a legal

391
00:23:14,920 --> 00:23:18,000
Speaker 2: thread here to hold on to to try to reverse

392
00:23:18,000 --> 00:23:18,360
Speaker 2: the rule.

393
00:23:18,440 --> 00:23:21,080
Speaker 9: Now, I mean we reverse this under what's known as

394
00:23:21,080 --> 00:23:24,400
Speaker 9: the Congressional Review Act, which is a statute to process.

395
00:23:24,480 --> 00:23:26,879
Speaker 9: It was specifically designed for what we used it for,

396
00:23:27,240 --> 00:23:30,639
Speaker 9: to say that when an agency makes a new rule

397
00:23:30,760 --> 00:23:33,919
Speaker 9: that has sweeping impact, that Congress should be able to

398
00:23:33,960 --> 00:23:36,919
Speaker 9: weigh in and decide whether that rule should actually go forward.

399
00:23:36,960 --> 00:23:38,800
Speaker 9: And so you have to get it to pass the

400
00:23:38,840 --> 00:23:41,320
Speaker 9: House and pass the Senate, and get it signed by

401
00:23:41,320 --> 00:23:44,359
Speaker 9: the president. That's exactly what we did here. And they're

402
00:23:44,400 --> 00:23:46,840
Speaker 9: trying to argue that somehow this doesn't meet the definition

403
00:23:46,880 --> 00:23:50,000
Speaker 9: of a rule, but the reality is this is a

404
00:23:50,040 --> 00:23:54,080
Speaker 9: policy that is going to affect forty million people in California,

405
00:23:54,160 --> 00:23:56,320
Speaker 9: as well as people in eleven other states that have

406
00:23:56,480 --> 00:23:59,760
Speaker 9: pegged their policy is under what's known as the Clean

407
00:23:59,800 --> 00:24:04,080
Speaker 9: Air Act to Californians. So if you're banning something that

408
00:24:04,160 --> 00:24:07,720
Speaker 9: the vast majority of people, you know, in states comprising

409
00:24:07,760 --> 00:24:10,960
Speaker 9: tens of millions of people use and on everyday basis

410
00:24:11,000 --> 00:24:13,359
Speaker 9: for actually a significant amount of time in their lives,

411
00:24:13,359 --> 00:24:15,720
Speaker 9: and that is not a rule subject to the Congressional

412
00:24:15,760 --> 00:24:16,919
Speaker 9: Review Act, I don't know what it is.

413
00:24:17,160 --> 00:24:17,800
Speaker 1: I just don't.

414
00:24:17,680 --> 00:24:21,160
Speaker 2: Understand if a bureaucrat comes up with a bad rule,

415
00:24:21,480 --> 00:24:24,520
Speaker 2: that there is nobody else in government on any level

416
00:24:24,920 --> 00:24:27,280
Speaker 2: that can reverse a bad decision and the public is

417
00:24:27,320 --> 00:24:30,080
Speaker 2: just supposed to suffer. I mean that seems nuts.

418
00:24:30,920 --> 00:24:33,879
Speaker 9: Yeah, exactly. Well, that's and I think it's very telling

419
00:24:33,960 --> 00:24:36,919
Speaker 9: that they know their policies do not have the support

420
00:24:36,960 --> 00:24:38,679
Speaker 9: of the people, do not have the support of the

421
00:24:38,680 --> 00:24:43,320
Speaker 9: people's representatives. So they're trying to insist upon a regime

422
00:24:43,480 --> 00:24:47,360
Speaker 9: where the decisions of bureaucrats within the executive branch are

423
00:24:47,400 --> 00:24:48,200
Speaker 9: the end of the story.

424
00:24:48,280 --> 00:24:52,000
Speaker 10: Why do they keep pushing this, Well, I mean they've

425
00:24:52,040 --> 00:24:54,200
Speaker 10: just sort of, you know, made it their view that

426
00:24:54,640 --> 00:24:58,000
Speaker 10: this is, you know, the world that they are going

427
00:24:58,040 --> 00:25:02,199
Speaker 10: to force into being, that you know, consumers should not

428
00:25:02,240 --> 00:25:03,240
Speaker 10: have any say in the matter.

429
00:25:03,280 --> 00:25:06,800
Speaker 9: I think it's just the overall impulse behind this kind

430
00:25:06,840 --> 00:25:10,439
Speaker 9: of far less radical progressivism that isn't even you know,

431
00:25:10,640 --> 00:25:13,119
Speaker 9: characteristic of the Democratic Party as a whole, but of

432
00:25:13,160 --> 00:25:17,600
Speaker 9: the particular faction that Gavin Newsom and others represent, And

433
00:25:17,640 --> 00:25:22,080
Speaker 9: they're unwilling to consider things like logic, like you know,

434
00:25:22,240 --> 00:25:25,280
Speaker 9: the desires of the people and that they represent, or

435
00:25:25,320 --> 00:25:29,199
Speaker 9: any of the considerations that are relevant usually to for

436
00:25:29,200 --> 00:25:32,720
Speaker 9: any reasonable person to policymaking. But rather they just are

437
00:25:32,720 --> 00:25:35,480
Speaker 9: plowing ahead with, you know, the way that they think

438
00:25:35,520 --> 00:25:37,919
Speaker 9: the world ought to be. And I think that you know,

439
00:25:38,040 --> 00:25:41,440
Speaker 9: it's there. It's gotten a significant amount of pushback within

440
00:25:41,520 --> 00:25:44,680
Speaker 9: California and across the country, and the Vogue yesterday is

441
00:25:44,760 --> 00:25:45,920
Speaker 9: very much reflective of that.

442
00:25:46,000 --> 00:25:50,760
Speaker 2: Well, great work on this, excellent and everybody in California

443
00:25:50,800 --> 00:25:53,760
Speaker 2: appreciates this a lot as a victory.

444
00:25:53,400 --> 00:25:55,520
Speaker 9: For common sense. And so I think we have many.

445
00:25:55,359 --> 00:25:57,639
Speaker 1: More, yeah, pretty rare up to this point.

446
00:25:57,880 --> 00:26:00,639
Speaker 2: I imagine, I imagine being in the majority in Washington

447
00:26:00,720 --> 00:26:02,520
Speaker 2: right now is way better than being in the minority

448
00:26:02,520 --> 00:26:03,200
Speaker 2: in Sacramento.

449
00:26:04,440 --> 00:26:09,119
Speaker 9: It's certainly very different. And we're you know, in particular,

450
00:26:09,200 --> 00:26:11,919
Speaker 9: now we have new tools at our disposal and so

451
00:26:12,040 --> 00:26:14,560
Speaker 9: we've been trying to push back against a lot of

452
00:26:14,560 --> 00:26:18,200
Speaker 9: the instandity in California, not just with this gas car ban,

453
00:26:18,359 --> 00:26:21,560
Speaker 9: but with the sanctuary state, with high speed rail, with

454
00:26:21,680 --> 00:26:28,000
Speaker 9: Newsom's medical for legal immigrants, and you know, crime and homelessness,

455
00:26:28,119 --> 00:26:30,320
Speaker 9: and a whole host of other areas where actually I

456
00:26:30,320 --> 00:26:33,600
Speaker 9: think we are starting to see some improvement in California.

457
00:26:33,640 --> 00:26:35,560
Speaker 9: And you know, we passed Top thirty six with crime,

458
00:26:35,600 --> 00:26:38,560
Speaker 9: we got the grants pass decision from the Supreme Court.

459
00:26:38,760 --> 00:26:41,480
Speaker 9: When it comes to homelessness, Newsom has actually rolled back

460
00:26:41,960 --> 00:26:45,160
Speaker 9: some of the policy of free medical for ilegal immigrants.

461
00:26:45,200 --> 00:26:47,560
Speaker 9: And so we've been able to apply pressure in a

462
00:26:47,600 --> 00:26:49,680
Speaker 9: way that's actually starting to improve things. And I think

463
00:26:49,680 --> 00:26:51,600
Speaker 9: we got a little bit of hope now in California.

464
00:26:51,680 --> 00:26:54,440
Speaker 2: All Right, Kevin, we'll talk again soon again. Great work

465
00:26:54,480 --> 00:26:58,920
Speaker 2: on gettings written in past. It's Kevin Kyleie, Republican Congressman

466
00:26:58,920 --> 00:27:03,080
Speaker 2: from northern California. He wrote the resolution that the Senate

467
00:27:03,080 --> 00:27:05,320
Speaker 2: and the House passed and Trump's going to sign, and

468
00:27:05,359 --> 00:27:10,200
Speaker 2: that ends the electric car mandate. It ends Newsome's ban

469
00:27:10,320 --> 00:27:11,479
Speaker 2: on gas powered cars.

470
00:27:12,680 --> 00:27:16,720
Speaker 3: You're listening to John Cobels on demand from KFI A

471
00:27:17,040 --> 00:27:17,840
Speaker 3: six forty.

472
00:27:18,320 --> 00:27:22,400
Speaker 2: Coming up after two o'clock to talk about some fireworks

473
00:27:22,480 --> 00:27:25,360
Speaker 2: at the La City Council meeting yesterday. Boy did Tracy

474
00:27:25,440 --> 00:27:27,399
Speaker 2: Park go off on the rest of the council. We

475
00:27:27,480 --> 00:27:32,680
Speaker 2: have her full mini rant coming up to play. We're

476
00:27:32,680 --> 00:27:36,120
Speaker 2: going to talk to Michael because they are there. They're

477
00:27:36,160 --> 00:27:40,800
Speaker 2: slashing the police and fire believe it or not, and

478
00:27:41,280 --> 00:27:45,000
Speaker 2: they're even going after Karen bass Is inside safe her

479
00:27:45,400 --> 00:27:51,040
Speaker 2: fake homeless initiative which didn't work. Talk about that coming up.

480
00:27:53,320 --> 00:27:54,840
Speaker 2: When Kevin came on, we were in the middle of

481
00:27:54,880 --> 00:27:59,800
Speaker 2: a playing or talking about Ashley Zavalla's question to Gavin

482
00:27:59,800 --> 00:28:01,440
Speaker 2: new Why don't we play this again?

483
00:28:01,480 --> 00:28:02,399
Speaker 1: If you're just joining us?

484
00:28:02,400 --> 00:28:04,920
Speaker 2: This is actually is Avola from a Channel three and

485
00:28:04,960 --> 00:28:12,919
Speaker 2: Sacramento asking Newsom about whether California drivers really are going

486
00:28:12,960 --> 00:28:15,560
Speaker 2: to want to shut down, are really going to want

487
00:28:15,560 --> 00:28:18,040
Speaker 2: to give up their gas powered cars?

488
00:28:18,040 --> 00:28:21,680
Speaker 5: Still the overwhelming majority of California drivers are using gas

489
00:28:21,720 --> 00:28:24,760
Speaker 5: powered cars. I asked the governor if he's worried about

490
00:28:24,760 --> 00:28:25,680
Speaker 5: this at all?

491
00:28:25,720 --> 00:28:28,080
Speaker 8: Of course, and I imagine the majority of Americans were

492
00:28:28,080 --> 00:28:30,720
Speaker 8: in horse and buggies at a certain point.

493
00:28:30,800 --> 00:28:31,640
Speaker 4: It's called innovation.

494
00:28:31,720 --> 00:28:34,040
Speaker 8: You were still probably using a rotary phone before everyone

495
00:28:34,080 --> 00:28:40,320
Speaker 8: started using what appears most ubiquitous now the iPhone and

496
00:28:40,960 --> 00:28:47,120
Speaker 8: new platforms called innovation, it's called progress. And so we

497
00:28:47,160 --> 00:28:50,600
Speaker 8: see the markets shifting globally in this space. We've seen

498
00:28:50,600 --> 00:28:53,400
Speaker 8: it shift dramatically in California. But we're here for the

499
00:28:53,440 --> 00:28:57,160
Speaker 8: long haul in California will continue to lead in this space.

500
00:28:57,240 --> 00:28:59,840
Speaker 8: And you know, I just don't think our future is

501
00:29:01,120 --> 00:29:03,960
Speaker 8: more pollution. I'd rather invest in the future than try

502
00:29:04,000 --> 00:29:05,480
Speaker 8: to recreate the past.

503
00:29:05,760 --> 00:29:06,400
Speaker 4: I don't remember that.

504
00:29:06,520 --> 00:29:09,320
Speaker 7: I don't remember in the government like mandating hyphones.

505
00:29:09,800 --> 00:29:13,720
Speaker 4: With this, we're not mandating. We're trying to reduce. We're

506
00:29:13,720 --> 00:29:14,920
Speaker 4: not mandating anything.

507
00:29:14,920 --> 00:29:18,480
Speaker 8: We're saying stop polluting through the tailpipe.

508
00:29:19,320 --> 00:29:21,440
Speaker 2: If you're taking away the right to buy a gas

509
00:29:21,480 --> 00:29:26,040
Speaker 2: powered car, then you're mandating an electric car because that's

510
00:29:26,080 --> 00:29:28,600
Speaker 2: the only other choice. You see how slick he is.

511
00:29:28,640 --> 00:29:32,040
Speaker 2: You see the misdirection there, the way he changes the subject.

512
00:29:32,080 --> 00:29:35,840
Speaker 2: He starts talking about polluters again. Carbon dioxide out of

513
00:29:35,840 --> 00:29:38,800
Speaker 2: a tailpipe. That is not pollution anymore than you are

514
00:29:38,800 --> 00:29:43,800
Speaker 2: polluting when you exhale. It's what grass and trees and

515
00:29:43,840 --> 00:29:47,720
Speaker 2: plants take in. They take in the carbon dioxide, but

516
00:29:48,200 --> 00:29:53,960
Speaker 2: it's double talk. It's look over here while I point

517
00:29:54,000 --> 00:29:57,520
Speaker 2: over there. It's about confusing you. That's what he does.

518
00:29:57,920 --> 00:30:00,200
Speaker 2: And Ashley's a valid in fall for it that his

519
00:30:00,280 --> 00:30:04,240
Speaker 2: whole analogy breaks down because when horse and buggies came,

520
00:30:04,720 --> 00:30:07,600
Speaker 2: people did not give up their horse and buggies until

521
00:30:07,800 --> 00:30:15,440
Speaker 2: cars were working well and affordable. The first people who

522
00:30:15,480 --> 00:30:19,640
Speaker 2: had cars, that was a tiny, tiny percentage. Horse and

523
00:30:19,640 --> 00:30:22,160
Speaker 2: buggies stuck around for a while because the cars were

524
00:30:22,200 --> 00:30:26,400
Speaker 2: expensive and they didn't work that well. You could count

525
00:30:26,400 --> 00:30:30,680
Speaker 2: on a horse much better. When the cars became affordable

526
00:30:31,280 --> 00:30:35,160
Speaker 2: and reliable, then the horse and buggies faded away. But

527
00:30:35,240 --> 00:30:41,200
Speaker 2: it wasn't until then. Electric cars are not affordable and reliable.

528
00:30:41,200 --> 00:30:47,360
Speaker 2: There's no infrastructure to support it. Same thing with iPhones. iPhones,

529
00:30:48,560 --> 00:30:52,360
Speaker 2: when they become affordable and reliable, people went for them

530
00:30:53,160 --> 00:30:54,760
Speaker 2: and they were better than rotary phones.

531
00:30:56,320 --> 00:30:56,960
Speaker 1: But we didn't.

532
00:30:57,400 --> 00:30:59,360
Speaker 2: We didn't give up our rotary phones, or we didn't

533
00:30:59,360 --> 00:31:04,320
Speaker 2: give up our touch stone phones until the iPhone was affordable,

534
00:31:04,960 --> 00:31:09,760
Speaker 2: until it worked properly. What you have here is a technology.

535
00:31:09,800 --> 00:31:15,200
Speaker 2: Electric cars is not ready for mass use. It's good

536
00:31:15,240 --> 00:31:18,800
Speaker 2: if you're really rich and you could afford a third car,

537
00:31:18,960 --> 00:31:21,880
Speaker 2: and you're not relying on it for long distance travel.

538
00:31:22,920 --> 00:31:24,960
Speaker 2: And you've got the time to plug it in and wait.

539
00:31:26,640 --> 00:31:30,880
Speaker 2: But for most people, I don't have hours to plug

540
00:31:30,920 --> 00:31:36,240
Speaker 2: it in. I can't stand in line, so the technology

541
00:31:36,320 --> 00:31:41,120
Speaker 2: is not ready. He's forcing us to buy something that

542
00:31:41,200 --> 00:31:43,480
Speaker 2: doesn't work for most of us, that we can't afford.

543
00:31:44,280 --> 00:31:47,040
Speaker 2: People can't spend seventy five thousand dollars on a car.

544
00:31:48,000 --> 00:31:52,880
Speaker 2: And considering how many people are not rich in California,

545
00:31:53,520 --> 00:31:58,680
Speaker 2: I mean, it's just he is such an arrogant, pompous jackass,

546
00:31:58,880 --> 00:31:59,680
Speaker 2: isn't he.

547
00:31:59,680 --> 00:32:01,280
Speaker 1: He's and rich since he was born.

548
00:32:02,080 --> 00:32:05,120
Speaker 2: He hasn't the slightest idea what it's like to have

549
00:32:05,160 --> 00:32:09,440
Speaker 2: a middle class or a lower class life economically, has

550
00:32:09,440 --> 00:32:14,120
Speaker 2: no idea. Remember during COVID he went to the French

551
00:32:14,160 --> 00:32:17,440
Speaker 2: laundry for an expensive meal and expensive line. Remember his

552
00:32:17,560 --> 00:32:19,920
Speaker 2: kids went to an expensive private school when your kids

553
00:32:19,960 --> 00:32:24,920
Speaker 2: were shut out of school. I've never seen anybody with

554
00:32:24,960 --> 00:32:30,920
Speaker 2: a bigger disconnect from regular normal folk than Gavenuwsom. It

555
00:32:31,200 --> 00:32:34,040
Speaker 2: is just preposterous how out of touch he is. He's

556
00:32:34,200 --> 00:32:37,440
Speaker 2: really like a spoiled little baby, and he's got this

557
00:32:37,560 --> 00:32:44,640
Speaker 2: dictatorial streak in him. He and his staff and the

558
00:32:44,640 --> 00:32:48,400
Speaker 2: idiots in the legislature. Honest to god, if there was

559
00:32:48,640 --> 00:32:49,480
Speaker 2: like some way to.

560
00:32:52,560 --> 00:32:54,800
Speaker 1: You know what they don't need. Lobotomies is what they need.

561
00:32:55,760 --> 00:32:56,480
Speaker 1: They really do.

562
00:32:56,680 --> 00:32:57,920
Speaker 8: Are you going to perform them?

563
00:32:58,080 --> 00:33:00,520
Speaker 2: I would personally perform on all the way it seems

564
00:33:00,520 --> 00:33:01,720
Speaker 2: like Newsom already had is.

565
00:33:03,160 --> 00:33:05,200
Speaker 1: I mean, this is a dangerous.

566
00:33:04,720 --> 00:33:06,800
Speaker 2: Group of people, and they're dangerous to the people they

567
00:33:06,800 --> 00:33:10,800
Speaker 2: claim to represent the most, you know, the poor, the

568
00:33:11,080 --> 00:33:15,960
Speaker 2: working class, the middle class. I have no idea how

569
00:33:16,000 --> 00:33:18,400
Speaker 2: this crowd survives in California. I don't know if there's

570
00:33:18,600 --> 00:33:20,440
Speaker 2: some some toxins.

571
00:33:19,960 --> 00:33:23,160
Speaker 1: In the water. Who the hell would keep voting for this?

572
00:33:25,800 --> 00:33:27,840
Speaker 1: People that are not listening to your show.

573
00:33:27,680 --> 00:33:31,520
Speaker 2: John, Apparently not Apparently they're not listening in great enough numbers.

574
00:33:31,640 --> 00:33:33,920
Speaker 2: I mean, how can anybody, how can you? Where am

575
00:33:33,920 --> 00:33:35,720
Speaker 2: I wrong? Just somebody tell me where I'm wrong on this?

576
00:33:37,040 --> 00:33:39,600
Speaker 2: They'd let your car industry is not ready. It's simply

577
00:33:39,600 --> 00:33:41,200
Speaker 2: not ready. Unless you're really wealthy and you got a

578
00:33:41,240 --> 00:33:41,880
Speaker 2: lot of free time.

579
00:33:42,280 --> 00:33:42,880
Speaker 1: Doesn't work.

580
00:33:43,480 --> 00:33:45,960
Speaker 2: This is not a debatable point. There aren't two sides

581
00:33:46,000 --> 00:33:51,480
Speaker 2: to this. And you notice he didn't mention global warming

582
00:33:51,480 --> 00:33:53,640
Speaker 2: once in that speech. He didn't mention climate change. He

583
00:33:53,680 --> 00:33:56,000
Speaker 2: switched the whole topic. He turned it to pollution. Carbon

584
00:33:56,000 --> 00:34:00,600
Speaker 2: DIAXID is not pollution. I don't pollute because I exhale.

585
00:34:01,520 --> 00:34:03,440
Speaker 1: Well, maybe you do. I do you do.

586
00:34:05,080 --> 00:34:08,879
Speaker 2: Well? There should be some restrictions on you, and there are,

587
00:34:09,960 --> 00:34:12,120
Speaker 2: all right. Debora Mark has the news. Michael Monks is

588
00:34:12,280 --> 00:34:16,080
