1
00:00:00,840 --> 00:00:03,400
Speaker 1: Can't I am six forty you're listening to the John

Speaker 1: rather from one to four, and then you could hear

Speaker 1: the show as a podcast after four o'clock John Coblt

5
00:00:12,840 --> 00:00:15,880
Speaker 1: on demand on the iHeart app as well. Moistline we're

6
00:00:15,880 --> 00:00:17,920
Speaker 1: gonna play twice in the three o'clock hour. Also, we're

7
00:00:17,920 --> 00:00:20,640
Speaker 1: gonna have many hacks in the dumpster. It's gonna be

8
00:00:20,680 --> 00:00:23,040
Speaker 1: a layers and layers of bodies that we're throwing in

9
00:00:23,040 --> 00:00:26,960
Speaker 1: the dumpster. And now we're gonna talk with Nathan Hockman

10
00:00:27,120 --> 00:00:31,639
Speaker 1: and continue something we started last half hour with former

11
00:00:31,720 --> 00:00:37,520
Speaker 1: sheriff Alex Viannaweva. And this concerns District Attorney George Gascone.

12
00:00:37,600 --> 00:00:41,200
Speaker 1: He's got an assistant district attorney named Diana Turan. She's

13
00:00:41,320 --> 00:00:45,040
Speaker 1: been charged with eleven felonies. She used to be a

14
00:00:45,080 --> 00:00:52,599
Speaker 1: deputy public defender and she accessed illegally confidential files of

15
00:00:52,640 --> 00:00:57,760
Speaker 1: eleven sheriff's deputies, and then when she joined Gascone's office,

16
00:00:57,880 --> 00:01:02,480
Speaker 1: she used the information against those sheriff's deathbuties. And now

17
00:01:02,600 --> 00:01:06,160
Speaker 1: there's an investigation and charges from the state Attorney General

18
00:01:07,000 --> 00:01:10,240
Speaker 1: and we're going to talk now to Nathan Hoffman, who's

19
00:01:10,480 --> 00:01:12,840
Speaker 1: running against George Gascon for La County DA.

20
00:01:12,959 --> 00:01:16,720
Speaker 2: This is quite a scandal. Nathan, welcome again. How are you.

21
00:01:18,160 --> 00:01:20,160
Speaker 3: Very good? John, Thank you very much. Not a good

22
00:01:20,160 --> 00:01:22,800
Speaker 3: week for George Gascon. I must say no.

23
00:01:23,760 --> 00:01:27,200
Speaker 1: Talk about what based on what you know and what

24
00:01:27,240 --> 00:01:29,280
Speaker 1: you've read, what do you think she was doing here?

25
00:01:29,319 --> 00:01:30,000
Speaker 2: Diana Turan.

26
00:01:31,640 --> 00:01:35,160
Speaker 3: So first, what's actually shocking is that this is the

27
00:01:35,200 --> 00:01:39,039
Speaker 3: first time that a senior member of a DA's management

28
00:01:39,080 --> 00:01:43,560
Speaker 3: team has ever been charged with criminal felony accounts. I mean,

29
00:01:43,560 --> 00:01:47,600
Speaker 3: this is literally historic. And the person who actually charged

30
00:01:47,920 --> 00:01:52,320
Speaker 3: Diana Tehran was none other than California Attorney General Rob Bontac.

31
00:01:52,960 --> 00:01:56,480
Speaker 3: And the reason that that's significant if you remember Rob

32
00:01:56,560 --> 00:02:00,520
Speaker 3: Bonta was one of George Gascon's biggest supporters in twenty

33
00:02:00,560 --> 00:02:04,040
Speaker 3: twenty that he famously published a selfie of the two

34
00:02:04,120 --> 00:02:07,800
Speaker 3: of them smiling together with his endorsement. And so if

35
00:02:07,880 --> 00:02:11,920
Speaker 3: Rob Bonta believes that the evidence is so strong that

36
00:02:12,000 --> 00:02:15,520
Speaker 3: he is willing to basically do the right thing and

37
00:02:15,560 --> 00:02:19,600
Speaker 3: go against a political ally, it shows you how bad

38
00:02:19,720 --> 00:02:25,040
Speaker 3: Diana Taran's actions are and it raises huge questions about

39
00:02:25,080 --> 00:02:30,160
Speaker 3: what George Gascon knew and when he knew it.

40
00:02:30,160 --> 00:02:34,080
Speaker 1: It seems impossible that he didn't know that she was

41
00:02:34,120 --> 00:02:38,120
Speaker 1: carrying all this information and was using it in prosecutions.

42
00:02:39,320 --> 00:02:43,320
Speaker 3: You're absolutely right. When these allegations first surfaced in twenty nineteen,

43
00:02:43,440 --> 00:02:46,480
Speaker 3: they were publicly made the news media reported on him.

44
00:02:47,120 --> 00:02:51,640
Speaker 3: In January of twenty twenty one, he hires her specifically

45
00:02:52,040 --> 00:02:55,799
Speaker 3: to be in charge of prosecutions of police officers, and

46
00:02:55,840 --> 00:02:59,040
Speaker 3: he had to have known that these allegations existed but

47
00:02:59,120 --> 00:03:03,400
Speaker 3: then didn't care, which is a level of incompetence and

48
00:03:03,520 --> 00:03:07,240
Speaker 3: lack of judgment that is just is profound. But he

49
00:03:07,400 --> 00:03:10,120
Speaker 3: tripled down. He doesn't double down. He triples down on

50
00:03:10,200 --> 00:03:14,360
Speaker 3: Diana turn in January twenty twenty four, this past January,

51
00:03:14,680 --> 00:03:17,320
Speaker 3: when he elevates her to the Assistant DA the number

52
00:03:17,360 --> 00:03:20,880
Speaker 3: three spot, putting her in charge of ethics, integrity and

53
00:03:21,000 --> 00:03:26,000
Speaker 3: police prosecutions, knowing that there's an active Attorney General criminal

54
00:03:26,040 --> 00:03:31,040
Speaker 3: investigation against her. Yet he doesn't care. And that's either

55
00:03:31,120 --> 00:03:34,440
Speaker 3: one of two things. Either he is literally incompetent when

56
00:03:34,440 --> 00:03:37,400
Speaker 3: it comes to managing the DA's office and needs to

57
00:03:37,440 --> 00:03:42,000
Speaker 3: resign for that reason, or he blessed this that he

58
00:03:42,120 --> 00:03:45,080
Speaker 3: thought that this is a criminal activity that he was

59
00:03:45,160 --> 00:03:48,400
Speaker 3: okay with, and that opens up a whole other set

60
00:03:48,440 --> 00:03:52,400
Speaker 3: of doors that I'm sure George does not George gascon

61
00:03:52,480 --> 00:03:53,600
Speaker 3: does not want to walk through.

62
00:03:54,560 --> 00:03:57,280
Speaker 1: Well, if this was going on with his blessing, what

63
00:03:57,440 --> 00:03:59,240
Speaker 1: else has been going on for the last three and

64
00:03:59,280 --> 00:04:02,800
Speaker 1: a half years, Because this is really outrageous.

65
00:04:04,120 --> 00:04:06,680
Speaker 3: You know. We know, for instance, back in twenty twenty

66
00:04:06,720 --> 00:04:09,800
Speaker 3: two that Diana Tehran, and this is the subject of

67
00:04:09,840 --> 00:04:16,839
Speaker 3: a lawsuit, Diana Tehran supposedly prohibited the disclosure of a

68
00:04:16,880 --> 00:04:21,440
Speaker 3: declination of a police officer who was involved in an

69
00:04:21,480 --> 00:04:25,680
Speaker 3: excessive force case. The DA's office had reviewed the evidence,

70
00:04:25,720 --> 00:04:28,479
Speaker 3: they were prepared to decline the case, but that was

71
00:04:28,560 --> 00:04:32,640
Speaker 3: right before Sheriff Villa and Aueba was up for election,

72
00:04:33,440 --> 00:04:36,039
Speaker 3: and Diana Teuran didn't want to do anything to help

73
00:04:36,480 --> 00:04:40,440
Speaker 3: Sheriff Villa and Aueba, so she delayed the issuance of

74
00:04:40,480 --> 00:04:44,000
Speaker 3: that declination until after the election. This is that same

75
00:04:44,160 --> 00:04:48,640
Speaker 3: Diana Tehran who now is the subject of eleven felony counts.

76
00:04:49,480 --> 00:04:52,599
Speaker 1: Well, it seems like she and gascona were blinded by

77
00:04:52,720 --> 00:04:55,160
Speaker 1: their disdain for police officers.

78
00:04:56,360 --> 00:04:59,200
Speaker 3: I think that's right. I mean, the only reason to

79
00:04:59,240 --> 00:05:02,440
Speaker 3: bring Diana try Tehran in from the Public Defender's Office

80
00:05:02,880 --> 00:05:06,920
Speaker 3: is because she had worked on police cases, cases involving

81
00:05:06,960 --> 00:05:10,080
Speaker 3: police officers, and so it's not a surprise that she

82
00:05:10,560 --> 00:05:14,760
Speaker 3: brought with her confidential information that she had developed when

83
00:05:14,760 --> 00:05:18,279
Speaker 3: she's with the Sheriff's Department originally then the Public Defender's Office,

84
00:05:18,560 --> 00:05:21,680
Speaker 3: now the DA's Office, brings it with her because she

85
00:05:21,839 --> 00:05:24,479
Speaker 3: is she's got a mission, and the mission is to

86
00:05:24,520 --> 00:05:28,680
Speaker 3: see how many police officers she can possibly prosecute, because

87
00:05:28,720 --> 00:05:31,760
Speaker 3: that is what Gascon promised to the people of Los

88
00:05:31,800 --> 00:05:35,200
Speaker 3: Angeles in twenty twenty. And he is not backed away

89
00:05:35,240 --> 00:05:38,880
Speaker 3: from Diana Tehran at all. There's no statement out there

90
00:05:39,240 --> 00:05:41,880
Speaker 3: saying that he is appalled by her conduct, that he's

91
00:05:41,960 --> 00:05:45,360
Speaker 3: overly concerned about the charges that have been filed against her,

92
00:05:45,839 --> 00:05:51,080
Speaker 3: that he has suspended her from her duties, none of that. So, again,

93
00:05:51,240 --> 00:05:54,840
Speaker 3: George Gascon has a lot of questions to answer about

94
00:05:54,880 --> 00:05:58,240
Speaker 3: when he knew, what he knew, and what actions he's taken.

95
00:05:58,360 --> 00:06:00,520
Speaker 2: The thing is the two of them now that all

96
00:06:00,560 --> 00:06:01,560
Speaker 2: this stuff is illegal.

97
00:06:02,800 --> 00:06:06,840
Speaker 1: There's no question she knew she was doing it illegally.

98
00:06:07,080 --> 00:06:09,520
Speaker 1: He knew she was doing it illegally and they still

99
00:06:09,600 --> 00:06:10,039
Speaker 1: kept going.

100
00:06:12,040 --> 00:06:15,479
Speaker 3: You know, again, this is very consistent with how George

101
00:06:15,520 --> 00:06:20,080
Speaker 3: Gascon has staffed his senior management. If you recall, you know,

102
00:06:20,120 --> 00:06:24,800
Speaker 3: his chief of staff Tiffany Blackmail, also someone who's never

103
00:06:24,839 --> 00:06:28,920
Speaker 3: been a prosecutor. Although Diana Tauram was a prosecutor, she

104
00:06:29,000 --> 00:06:32,520
Speaker 3: came from the Public Defender's office, Tiffany Blackmail never was

105
00:06:32,560 --> 00:06:35,480
Speaker 3: a prosecutor and came from the Public Defender's office, and

106
00:06:35,520 --> 00:06:38,640
Speaker 3: she was famously pictured with a T shirt during the

107
00:06:38,720 --> 00:06:41,560
Speaker 3: defund the Police movement in twenty twenty it said the

108
00:06:41,600 --> 00:06:44,600
Speaker 3: police are trained to kill us, calling them barbarians in

109
00:06:44,640 --> 00:06:49,880
Speaker 3: an occupying army. This is his political ideology that he's

110
00:06:49,920 --> 00:06:54,880
Speaker 3: sadly inserted in the DA's office, forcing those to queue

111
00:06:55,040 --> 00:06:58,840
Speaker 3: to his political agenda or face retaliation if they don't.

112
00:07:00,360 --> 00:07:01,599
Speaker 2: How does he carry.

113
00:07:01,279 --> 00:07:06,560
Speaker 1: On for the rest of the year, and why, I mean,

114
00:07:06,560 --> 00:07:10,280
Speaker 1: at this point, why is he even bothering? This is

115
00:07:10,320 --> 00:07:14,200
Speaker 1: a huge betrayal of the public confidence.

116
00:07:13,640 --> 00:07:18,360
Speaker 3: Here, absolutely, I mean he's lost the confidence of the

117
00:07:18,400 --> 00:07:21,680
Speaker 3: seven hundred and fifty people the deputy district attorneys who

118
00:07:21,680 --> 00:07:24,560
Speaker 3: worked for him every day, ninety eight percent of whom

119
00:07:24,880 --> 00:07:28,560
Speaker 3: supported his actual recall you know, he's lost the faith

120
00:07:28,680 --> 00:07:31,840
Speaker 3: and the and the sort of partnership with law enforcement

121
00:07:32,320 --> 00:07:35,080
Speaker 3: because it's been clear he's much more interested in prosecuting

122
00:07:35,160 --> 00:07:38,120
Speaker 3: law enforcement than he is partnering with them to go

123
00:07:38,160 --> 00:07:41,560
Speaker 3: after the criminals in our society. And he's lost the

124
00:07:41,840 --> 00:07:46,160
Speaker 3: faith and trust of victims groups because he's abandoned victims

125
00:07:46,160 --> 00:07:49,920
Speaker 3: groups and so many different instances rather than be their champion.

126
00:07:50,680 --> 00:07:53,320
Speaker 3: So why George Gascon wants to be the district attorney

127
00:07:53,360 --> 00:07:56,040
Speaker 3: as opposed to a public defender? I have no idea.

128
00:07:56,760 --> 00:08:00,560
Speaker 1: It's it's really stunning. Well, what's likely to happen here?

129
00:08:00,600 --> 00:08:03,120
Speaker 1: I mean this is she could go to prison obviously

130
00:08:03,160 --> 00:08:03,640
Speaker 1: for all this.

131
00:08:05,000 --> 00:08:08,360
Speaker 3: I mean she I think the maximum sentence that if

132
00:08:08,760 --> 00:08:11,000
Speaker 3: she was convicted on all counts would be close to

133
00:08:11,080 --> 00:08:15,680
Speaker 3: nine years. And yes, she could very well go to prison.

134
00:08:16,600 --> 00:08:19,600
Speaker 3: It's certainly a consideration in the case. And that would

135
00:08:19,600 --> 00:08:22,760
Speaker 3: be extraordinary. I mean, even her going through this process

136
00:08:23,400 --> 00:08:27,440
Speaker 3: will reveal who in the District Attorney's office besides her

137
00:08:28,040 --> 00:08:30,800
Speaker 3: knew what was going on. I mean, was it her boss?

138
00:08:30,920 --> 00:08:33,440
Speaker 3: Did her boss actually bless these actions?

139
00:08:33,520 --> 00:08:36,600
Speaker 1: If Gascon knew that she was using this stolen information

140
00:08:37,000 --> 00:08:39,160
Speaker 1: to prosecute people on his watch.

141
00:08:39,280 --> 00:08:41,439
Speaker 2: Is he not liable criminally?

142
00:08:43,080 --> 00:08:45,640
Speaker 3: You know that It's an excellent question and one I

143
00:08:45,640 --> 00:08:49,400
Speaker 3: am sure that Rob Bonta, the Attorney General, will look at.

144
00:08:49,480 --> 00:08:52,760
Speaker 3: Because Rob Bonta said in his press release no one

145
00:08:53,240 --> 00:08:55,839
Speaker 3: is above the law. And I think you know he's

146
00:08:55,880 --> 00:08:59,600
Speaker 3: not just referring to Diana Turan. If George Gascon, the

147
00:08:59,600 --> 00:09:04,040
Speaker 3: evidence shows beyond a reasonable doubt that George Gascon worked

148
00:09:04,080 --> 00:09:07,760
Speaker 3: with Diana turn you know, to engage in these illegal

149
00:09:07,840 --> 00:09:11,319
Speaker 3: conduct that I'm confident that Rob Bonta in the Attorney

150
00:09:11,400 --> 00:09:15,520
Speaker 3: General's office will pursue all leads wherever they may take him.

151
00:09:16,360 --> 00:09:18,480
Speaker 1: All right, Nathan Hawkman, thank you for coming on again

292
00:17:47,119 --> 00:17:49,200

293
00:17:49,400 --> 00:17:52,240
Speaker 1: L A, not U c L A usc USC. Yeah,

294
00:17:52,280 --> 00:17:55,240
Speaker 1: well it was even worse over at USC and a Colombia.

295
00:17:55,320 --> 00:17:58,359
Speaker 1: Columbia I think is ninety thousand a year now. And

296
00:17:58,520 --> 00:18:02,399
Speaker 1: then they complain that they don't have job prospects and

297
00:18:02,640 --> 00:18:06,960
Speaker 1: they have hundreds of thousands of dollars in debt. Well,

298
00:18:07,040 --> 00:18:10,680
Speaker 1: what should you be hired for if that's what you've

299
00:18:10,680 --> 00:18:12,920
Speaker 1: been doing with your time, If that's the garbage in

300
00:18:13,000 --> 00:18:16,520
Speaker 1: your head. If you were running a major company and

301
00:18:16,600 --> 00:18:19,720
Speaker 1: you normally get your hires out of places like Columbia

302
00:18:19,880 --> 00:18:22,960
Speaker 1: or USC, and you see these people on your television,

303
00:18:23,359 --> 00:18:24,240
Speaker 1: why would you bring.

304
00:18:24,160 --> 00:18:25,080
Speaker 2: Them into the office.

305
00:18:26,400 --> 00:18:30,159
Speaker 1: I mean, you wouldn't want them to deliver pizza on

306
00:18:30,200 --> 00:18:36,320
Speaker 1: a Friday afternoon. They're dangerous, they're so deranged, and they

307
00:18:36,359 --> 00:18:37,560
Speaker 1: don't know what they're talking about.

308
00:18:37,640 --> 00:18:41,040
Speaker 2: That's the thing. Why don't you have like a calm,

309
00:18:41,160 --> 00:18:42,399
Speaker 2: reasonable discussion here?

310
00:18:43,280 --> 00:18:47,440
Speaker 7: And it's just screaming, Well again, nobody seems to go

311
00:18:47,600 --> 00:18:50,280
Speaker 7: back to what happened on October seven.

312
00:18:50,400 --> 00:18:50,760
Speaker 1: Yeah, I know.

313
00:18:53,960 --> 00:18:55,640
Speaker 2: Israel has been so busy with the war.

314
00:18:55,840 --> 00:18:59,600
Speaker 1: I think they neglected the public relations, which you have

315
00:18:59,760 --> 00:19:03,800
Speaker 1: to have have because, especially with social media and the

316
00:19:03,840 --> 00:19:06,919
Speaker 1: insanity there. When there's a vacuum of information, that vacuum

317
00:19:06,960 --> 00:19:09,040
Speaker 1: gets filled with a lot of nonsense.

318
00:19:09,240 --> 00:19:12,879
Speaker 2: The narrative has completely changed. I know, I know, it's absurd,

319
00:19:12,920 --> 00:19:13,199
Speaker 2: all right.

320
00:19:13,640 --> 00:19:16,679
Speaker 1: We got more coming up next hour or two ends

321
00:19:16,720 --> 00:19:18,240
Speaker 1: of the moistline Hacks in a dumpster.

322
00:19:19,359 --> 00:19:23,639
Speaker 4: You're listening to John Cobel's on demand from KFI AM

323
00:19:23,720 --> 00:19:24,240
Speaker 4: six forty.

324
00:19:25,320 --> 00:19:26,399
Speaker 2: Coming up next segment.

325
00:19:26,880 --> 00:19:31,159
Speaker 1: Adam Schiff had his luggage stolen by car burglars in

326
00:19:31,240 --> 00:19:32,000
Speaker 1: San Francisco.

327
00:19:32,160 --> 00:19:33,560
Speaker 2: Really, this is really funny.

328
00:19:34,000 --> 00:19:39,320
Speaker 1: Mister progressive criminal justice reform had his car busted into

329
00:19:39,440 --> 00:19:42,080
Speaker 1: and they took all his clothes. What are you gonna

330
00:19:42,119 --> 00:19:48,399
Speaker 1: do with Adam Schift's dirty laundry? Hei, We'll tell you

331
00:19:48,480 --> 00:19:50,159
Speaker 1: about that coming up next segment.

332
00:19:50,280 --> 00:19:50,600
Speaker 2: Right now.

333
00:19:51,119 --> 00:19:53,560
Speaker 1: One of the things we have been discussing the last

334
00:19:53,600 --> 00:19:57,280
Speaker 1: few days, ever since these protests went crazy at the

335
00:19:57,320 --> 00:20:04,120
Speaker 1: college campuses, is who's funding this, who's organizing this? Because

336
00:20:04,280 --> 00:20:06,920
Speaker 1: if you look at an aerial shot like over Columbia University,

337
00:20:07,000 --> 00:20:09,199
Speaker 1: you could see all the tents or uniform they're all

338
00:20:09,200 --> 00:20:13,399
Speaker 1: the same, and the messages are all the same, and

339
00:20:13,840 --> 00:20:18,800
Speaker 1: somebody has to do the logistics of putting a protest together.

340
00:20:18,880 --> 00:20:20,480
Speaker 1: You have to make sure you have enough people. You

341
00:20:20,600 --> 00:20:23,040
Speaker 1: have to get them the message. You have to buy

342
00:20:23,119 --> 00:20:25,520
Speaker 1: the tents. Somebody's got to ship the tents. You got

343
00:20:25,600 --> 00:20:28,119
Speaker 1: to have people there to set it up. You got

344
00:20:28,240 --> 00:20:30,359
Speaker 1: to organize the speakers who are going to lead the

345
00:20:30,480 --> 00:20:33,320
Speaker 1: nursery rhymes the whole thing, right, This is not These

346
00:20:33,359 --> 00:20:37,320
Speaker 1: are not spontaneous demonstrations. You could see every time they

347
00:20:37,400 --> 00:20:40,719
Speaker 1: talk to local students, the students are absolutely no nothings.

348
00:20:42,040 --> 00:20:44,560
Speaker 1: They don't know what they're yelling about, but they know

349
00:20:44,680 --> 00:20:50,000
Speaker 1: they're mad. New York Post has a story today and it,

350
00:20:52,040 --> 00:20:54,320
Speaker 1: excuse me, it looks like it's George Soros again. It's

351
00:20:54,359 --> 00:21:00,880
Speaker 1: his organizations, starting with the Columbia protest, and now they're

352
00:21:00,920 --> 00:21:04,080
Speaker 1: all over the place, and it's all copycat tent cities

353
00:21:04,240 --> 00:21:09,760
Speaker 1: at Harvard, Yale, Berkeley, Ohio, State Emery in Georgia, and

354
00:21:10,000 --> 00:21:14,640
Speaker 1: all of them organized by branches of the same nonprofit,

355
00:21:15,240 --> 00:21:21,240
Speaker 1: Students for Justice in Palestine SJP, funded by George Soros,

356
00:21:21,880 --> 00:21:27,679
Speaker 1: and he has many, many nonprofit subsidiaries and they use

357
00:21:27,800 --> 00:21:33,320
Speaker 1: his money to create this chaos. Students for Justice in

358
00:21:33,440 --> 00:21:37,640
Speaker 1: Palestine is funded by a network of nonprofits, and all

359
00:21:37,720 --> 00:21:42,520
Speaker 1: those nonprofits ultimately are funded by Soros and others. Soros

360
00:21:42,760 --> 00:21:46,120
Speaker 1: is a billionaire left wing investor, and he has been

361
00:21:46,760 --> 00:21:50,240
Speaker 1: funding a lot of the groups that have created the

362
00:21:50,320 --> 00:21:55,080
Speaker 1: anarchy over the years for all these issues that seem

363
00:21:55,200 --> 00:21:59,439
Speaker 1: to come and go like fashion, like pre pea stained pants,

364
00:22:00,240 --> 00:22:05,240
Speaker 1: anything from occupy in the old days, to Black Lives Matter,

365
00:22:05,520 --> 00:22:09,200
Speaker 1: to transgender to I don't know it. You can't even

366
00:22:09,280 --> 00:22:13,720
Speaker 1: keep up with it, the George Floyd protests. Obviously, these

367
00:22:13,920 --> 00:22:18,600
Speaker 1: are all organized and funded by George Soros and other

368
00:22:18,800 --> 00:22:21,159
Speaker 1: tech billionaires as well. This is what they put their

369
00:22:21,200 --> 00:22:25,359
Speaker 1: money into, and it's largely the members who are willing

370
00:22:25,440 --> 00:22:30,440
Speaker 1: to do the marching from the colleges are upper middle

371
00:22:30,520 --> 00:22:37,000
Speaker 1: class white girls and white guys, and they seem to

372
00:22:37,080 --> 00:22:40,760
Speaker 1: have some terrible rebellion against the privilege that they came from,

373
00:22:41,240 --> 00:22:42,639
Speaker 1: and they create most of the havoc.

374
00:22:42,720 --> 00:22:44,600
Speaker 2: Now, most of them are absolutely ignorant.

375
00:22:46,320 --> 00:22:50,800
Speaker 1: At three colleges, the protests are being encouraged by paid radicals.

376
00:22:52,080 --> 00:22:58,240
Speaker 1: These radicals are fellows of the US Campaign for Palestinian Rights.

377
00:22:58,760 --> 00:23:03,639
Speaker 1: George Soros fund this group as well. They are paid

378
00:23:04,440 --> 00:23:12,520
Speaker 1: seven eight hundred dollars and for community based fellows and

379
00:23:12,680 --> 00:23:15,879
Speaker 1: those on campus, and so these would be students are

380
00:23:15,920 --> 00:23:20,200
Speaker 1: paid roughly between twenty eight hundred and thirty six hundred dollars.

381
00:23:20,920 --> 00:23:24,199
Speaker 1: You spend eight hours a week organizing campaigns led by

382
00:23:24,320 --> 00:23:31,840
Speaker 1: Palestinian organizations. Now these are pro terrorist, Prohamas organizations who

383
00:23:31,960 --> 00:23:37,320
Speaker 1: preach death to Jews. They're trained to rise up to

384
00:23:37,480 --> 00:23:42,200
Speaker 1: join the revolution. This radical group again, US Campaign for

385
00:23:42,280 --> 00:23:46,240
Speaker 1: Palestinian Rights got three hundred thousand dollars from Soros's Open

386
00:23:46,359 --> 00:23:50,600
Speaker 1: Society Foundation since twenty seventeen also took in three hundred

387
00:23:50,640 --> 00:23:54,160
Speaker 1: and fifty five thousand dollars from the Rockefeller Brothers Fund.

388
00:23:55,080 --> 00:24:01,000
Speaker 1: Now we're talking about, you know, the Rockefellers. It's now

389
00:24:01,080 --> 00:24:05,160
Speaker 1: the fourth generation of Rockefellers, and they are giving away

390
00:24:05,640 --> 00:24:12,119
Speaker 1: their ancestors' money to all these ludicrous groups. George Soros'

391
00:24:12,760 --> 00:24:19,239
Speaker 1: son Alexander, now controls Open Society Foundations. Alexander his new

392
00:24:19,280 --> 00:24:22,600
Speaker 1: girlfriend is Huma Abadin, who used to be Hillary Clinton's

393
00:24:22,640 --> 00:24:27,040
Speaker 1: top aid and she still is legally married to Anthony Weener,

394
00:24:28,359 --> 00:24:33,639
Speaker 1: that pervert Open Society. The Soros group has given more

395
00:24:33,680 --> 00:24:37,640
Speaker 1: than twenty million dollars to the Tides Foundation, who then

396
00:24:37,960 --> 00:24:42,399
Speaker 1: sends the cash to smaller groups. One of them is

397
00:24:42,480 --> 00:24:47,159
Speaker 1: a Jewish Voice for Peace and they have been a

398
00:24:47,240 --> 00:24:49,960
Speaker 1: prominent part of the protests at Columbia. And they're the

399
00:24:50,040 --> 00:24:52,360
Speaker 1: ones who get on camera to say, hey, look we're

400
00:24:52,480 --> 00:24:56,600
Speaker 1: Jewish and we're against what's going on too. You have

401
00:24:56,760 --> 00:25:00,359
Speaker 1: Jews who are pro Hamas, Jews who are protest arrest

402
00:25:01,440 --> 00:25:05,080
Speaker 1: who are busy killing Jews. But you know, everybody's making

403
00:25:05,119 --> 00:25:10,200
Speaker 1: money on this because they've gotten six hundred and fifty

404
00:25:10,240 --> 00:25:14,159
Speaker 1: thousand dollars a Jewish Voice for Peace. Also there is

405
00:25:14,240 --> 00:25:17,800
Speaker 1: the Westchester People's Action Coalition Foundation that got one hundred

406
00:25:17,840 --> 00:25:21,720
Speaker 1: and thirty two thousand dollars and they're a major funder

407
00:25:21,760 --> 00:25:23,320
Speaker 1: of anti Israel groups.

408
00:25:25,160 --> 00:25:27,040
Speaker 2: So you know, you go on and on here, but

409
00:25:27,119 --> 00:25:27,919
Speaker 2: you get the idea.

410
00:25:28,720 --> 00:25:34,639
Speaker 1: It is an intricate spider's web, starting with very wealthy

411
00:25:34,720 --> 00:25:39,920
Speaker 1: people who intentionally want to cause public disturbances, radicalize young

412
00:25:40,000 --> 00:25:42,400
Speaker 1: people in college or too stupid to know any better,

413
00:25:42,840 --> 00:25:47,199
Speaker 1: and everybody's getting paid. They're making money, the organizers are

414
00:25:47,200 --> 00:25:50,880
Speaker 1: making money, the students are getting paid to protest. Of course,

415
00:25:50,880 --> 00:25:54,760
Speaker 1: they're getting paid to protest. Imagine that, Imagine you could

416
00:25:54,800 --> 00:25:59,520
Speaker 1: get three four thousand dollars just for going out and protesting.

417
00:26:01,720 --> 00:26:03,399
Speaker 1: Of course, the students are going to eat that up

418
00:26:03,960 --> 00:26:05,760
Speaker 1: and they'll say whatever you want them to say. It's

419
00:26:05,760 --> 00:26:11,520
Speaker 1: all performance theater. But that's what's really going on. Of course,

420
00:26:11,640 --> 00:26:15,200
Speaker 1: you think every news report like here locally, every news

421
00:26:15,280 --> 00:26:18,480
Speaker 1: report that covers USC or UCLA protests should be asking

422
00:26:18,560 --> 00:26:21,240
Speaker 1: that one question. Who's paying for this, who's donating the

423
00:26:21,320 --> 00:26:24,280
Speaker 1: money for this? How much are the students getting paid

424
00:26:24,320 --> 00:26:27,719
Speaker 1: to stand and chant their nursery rhymes and beat their

425
00:26:27,800 --> 00:26:28,439
Speaker 1: toy drums?

426
00:26:29,800 --> 00:26:30,359
Speaker 2: More coming up.

427
00:26:31,280 --> 00:26:35,280
Speaker 4: You're listening to John Cobelt on demand from KFI A

428
00:26:35,600 --> 00:26:36,120
Speaker 4: six forty.

429
00:26:37,040 --> 00:26:40,479
Speaker 2: Adam Schiff, Let's see, let me get this right here.

430
00:26:40,520 --> 00:26:46,359
Speaker 1: If you go to Adam Schiff's congressional website, it says

431
00:26:46,480 --> 00:26:50,160
Speaker 1: that Schiff has been a champion for progressive and practical

432
00:26:50,280 --> 00:26:55,080
Speaker 1: criminal justice reform. You know what, that's code for, let

433
00:26:55,160 --> 00:26:58,520
Speaker 1: out all the prisoners early and don't prosecute all the

434
00:26:58,600 --> 00:27:04,800
Speaker 1: criminals today. So there's a huge number of criminals running

435
00:27:04,800 --> 00:27:09,040
Speaker 1: around even if they get caught, don't go to jail.

436
00:27:09,320 --> 00:27:13,400
Speaker 1: There's no bail for their crimes, and if they are caught,

437
00:27:13,560 --> 00:27:17,440
Speaker 1: they spend they spent very little time in jail, even

438
00:27:17,480 --> 00:27:20,760
Speaker 1: if they're prosecuted, even if they're found guilty. In fact,

439
00:27:20,800 --> 00:27:24,840
Speaker 1: oftentimes they're released immediately. So they go and they steal more. Right,

440
00:27:24,920 --> 00:27:27,960
Speaker 1: That is the whole progressive philosophy. Let the criminals steal

441
00:27:28,040 --> 00:27:31,000
Speaker 1: as much as they want. Well, Blue back on Adam

442
00:27:31,040 --> 00:27:35,000
Speaker 1: Schiff Shifts showed up in San Francisco. He was supposed

443
00:27:35,000 --> 00:27:39,200
Speaker 1: to go to a fancy dinner party an attorney. I

444
00:27:39,280 --> 00:27:43,000
Speaker 1: imagine this guy, Joe Katchit is one of his big donors,

445
00:27:43,600 --> 00:27:46,480
Speaker 1: and they were going to have a dinner to commemorate

446
00:27:46,520 --> 00:27:51,600
Speaker 1: their relationship. And he just had to wear his ordinary shirt,

447
00:27:51,680 --> 00:27:55,359
Speaker 1: sleeves and hiking vest. Everybody else was in suits. He

448
00:27:56,240 --> 00:27:59,920
Speaker 1: had no clothes. Schiff's car had been parked in the

449
00:28:00,080 --> 00:28:04,920
Speaker 1: garage for a couple of days for appearances, and be

450
00:28:05,080 --> 00:28:08,520
Speaker 1: discovered that they took all his luggage while he was

451
00:28:08,600 --> 00:28:13,440
Speaker 1: in his downtown parking garage and catch it. The lawyer

452
00:28:13,560 --> 00:28:17,359
Speaker 1: supporter says, well, Adam really showed himself tonight. You know,

453
00:28:17,440 --> 00:28:20,160
Speaker 1: he was unruffled by all this. He'll be a great senator.

454
00:28:20,200 --> 00:28:23,520
Speaker 1: He's going to change the Senate tremendously. I don't know

455
00:28:23,520 --> 00:28:25,280
Speaker 1: who Joe kotch It is. And what he wants to

456
00:28:25,400 --> 00:28:29,200
Speaker 1: return from Schiff. But Schiff is an idiot if he's

457
00:28:29,240 --> 00:28:34,080
Speaker 1: a progressive criminal justice reformer, because all that happens is

458
00:28:34,359 --> 00:28:37,360
Speaker 1: more and more people steal stuff, and more and more

459
00:28:37,440 --> 00:28:44,120
Speaker 1: people assault the innocent. There's more theft, whether it's from cars, stores, homes.

460
00:28:45,080 --> 00:28:49,680
Speaker 1: Everybody's taking stuff because there's no consequences, and no consequences

461
00:28:49,840 --> 00:28:53,120
Speaker 1: is the whole point of progressive criminal justice reform. So

462
00:28:53,280 --> 00:28:56,080
Speaker 1: of course this this idiot lawyer is going to donate

463
00:28:56,200 --> 00:28:59,200
Speaker 1: money and Schiff is going to go pay his respects

464
00:28:59,280 --> 00:29:04,520
Speaker 1: and kiss his feet. Chiff admitted that he was warned

465
00:29:04,560 --> 00:29:06,040
Speaker 1: not to leave anything in the car, but he was

466
00:29:06,080 --> 00:29:11,120
Speaker 1: in a hurry. He didn't want to be late. And

467
00:29:11,240 --> 00:29:13,400
Speaker 1: I'm reading these news stories and it looks like everybody

468
00:29:13,560 --> 00:29:15,719
Speaker 1: was just making a lot of jokes because it's funny, right,

469
00:29:16,200 --> 00:29:20,440
Speaker 1: It's funny when you have all your stuff stolen. They

470
00:29:20,480 --> 00:29:26,280
Speaker 1: really don't care. Here's another this progressive justice reform. Here's

471
00:29:26,480 --> 00:29:28,840
Speaker 1: another example. We're going to play you this story and

472
00:29:28,880 --> 00:29:31,000
Speaker 1: then we're going to talk to one of the women

473
00:29:31,280 --> 00:29:34,760
Speaker 1: who owns Pink Sponge home cleaning in Glendora. You may

474
00:29:34,800 --> 00:29:38,160
Speaker 1: have heard there was a group of teenagers who trashed

475
00:29:39,920 --> 00:29:42,680
Speaker 1: to the two nut of twenty five thousand dollars a

476
00:29:42,840 --> 00:29:46,360
Speaker 1: large number of vehicles that the Pink Sponge home cleaning

477
00:29:46,440 --> 00:29:52,080
Speaker 1: business uses to clean people's homes. And these were pink

478
00:29:52,920 --> 00:29:57,240
Speaker 1: Bookswagen Bucks. They're kind of cute looking. And these three

479
00:29:57,360 --> 00:29:59,640
Speaker 1: teenagers and I looked at the video. Two of them

480
00:29:59,640 --> 00:30:06,880
Speaker 1: are girl. Two teenage girls smashing windows and destroying these cars,

481
00:30:08,040 --> 00:30:14,480
Speaker 1: their tailights, the headlights, the windows, the paint. We're gonna

482
00:30:14,480 --> 00:30:18,640
Speaker 1: play this clip now from KTLA Channel five, Sandra Mitchell blasting.

483
00:30:18,280 --> 00:30:21,600
Speaker 9: A fire extinguisher and torking on top of cars.

484
00:30:22,160 --> 00:30:26,280
Speaker 10: They kicked in every single headlight that they could find.

485
00:30:26,600 --> 00:30:29,120
Speaker 9: Teenagers on a vandalism rampage.

486
00:30:29,560 --> 00:30:32,400
Speaker 10: They pulled down on the windows so hard that they

487
00:30:32,520 --> 00:30:37,080
Speaker 10: broke the regulators. They carved into the hoods of the cars.

488
00:30:37,680 --> 00:30:41,680
Speaker 9: Those bright pink Volkswagen bugs belonged to Pink Sponge Home

489
00:30:41,760 --> 00:30:45,360
Speaker 9: Cleaning in Glendora. For two hours early Saturday morning, the

490
00:30:45,440 --> 00:30:49,920
Speaker 9: vandals tore through this rooftop parking lot at the Glendora Marketplace,

491
00:30:50,280 --> 00:30:54,480
Speaker 9: causing twenty five thousand dollars in damage to the parked cars.

492
00:30:54,840 --> 00:31:00,120
Speaker 10: They happily tore open doors. They threw products over the

493
00:31:00,240 --> 00:31:01,400
Speaker 10: side of the building.

494
00:31:01,680 --> 00:31:02,000
Speaker 3: It was.

495
00:31:04,360 --> 00:31:04,959
Speaker 4: Disgusting.

496
00:31:05,760 --> 00:31:09,080
Speaker 9: Eighteen of the company's twenty five vehicles were badly damaged.

497
00:31:09,160 --> 00:31:12,680
Speaker 9: And still this company that prides itself on respect and

498
00:31:12,880 --> 00:31:17,040
Speaker 9: integrity and giving back to their community is determined to

499
00:31:17,200 --> 00:31:17,880
Speaker 9: push ahead.

500
00:31:18,360 --> 00:31:22,040
Speaker 10: I couldn't understand how someone could do something to a

501
00:31:22,160 --> 00:31:25,840
Speaker 10: company that was trying to do good, and it didn't

502
00:31:25,880 --> 00:31:26,320
Speaker 10: make sense.

503
00:31:26,840 --> 00:31:29,600
Speaker 9: The vandals carved gang symbols on some of the cars,

504
00:31:29,640 --> 00:31:32,080
Speaker 9: and that helped lead police to one of the suspects,

505
00:31:32,360 --> 00:31:35,800
Speaker 9: a fifteen year old gang member from Laverne is now

506
00:31:36,080 --> 00:31:39,760
Speaker 9: in custody arrested for felony vandalism.

507
00:31:40,000 --> 00:31:44,320
Speaker 10: And we've built everything from the ground up, so to

508
00:31:44,440 --> 00:31:49,720
Speaker 10: see our hard work just be vandalized for hours was

509
00:31:51,040 --> 00:31:57,320
Speaker 10: just completely disheartening. Our Pink Sponge team is strong, but

510
00:31:58,160 --> 00:32:01,800
Speaker 10: we it's been so it's been very sad.

511
00:32:02,080 --> 00:32:04,680
Speaker 9: Glendora Police tell me they do have this cell phone

512
00:32:04,800 --> 00:32:07,440
Speaker 9: of that teenage suspect. They're going through it to final

513
00:32:07,480 --> 00:32:10,240
Speaker 9: links to the two girls you just saw in the video.

514
00:32:10,680 --> 00:32:14,000
Speaker 9: By the way, Pink Sponge telling me their insurance claim

515
00:32:14,240 --> 00:32:17,840
Speaker 9: was denied because they have been vandalized previously.

516
00:32:18,680 --> 00:32:20,600
Speaker 1: Of course, of course it was denied, Yeah, because they

517
00:32:20,600 --> 00:32:24,360
Speaker 1: were vandalized previously. Because there aren't any laws in La County.

518
00:32:24,720 --> 00:32:27,800
Speaker 1: So eventually, if you get vandalized or broken into often enough,

519
00:32:27,840 --> 00:32:31,840
Speaker 1: the insurance company says, we're not insuring you anymore because

520
00:32:32,200 --> 00:32:36,200
Speaker 1: this place is chaotic, there aren't any laws in force.

521
00:32:36,360 --> 00:32:39,680
Speaker 1: This is the legacy. This is legacy at Gascon. I

522
00:32:39,760 --> 00:32:42,480
Speaker 1: looked at the video. They actually turned on a smoke

523
00:32:42,600 --> 00:32:45,640
Speaker 1: machine spread smoke across the parking lot. I guess to

524
00:32:45,920 --> 00:32:48,960
Speaker 1: hide their identities. It was a fire extinguisher. It was

525
00:32:49,000 --> 00:32:49,960
Speaker 1: a fire extinguisher.

526
00:32:50,040 --> 00:32:52,160
Speaker 2: Yeah, that must have been.

527
00:32:52,360 --> 00:32:55,160
Speaker 1: But anyway that eventually the smoke or whatever it was

528
00:32:55,600 --> 00:32:57,320
Speaker 1: faded away and you could see it was a guy

529
00:32:57,360 --> 00:33:00,040
Speaker 1: in two girls, and the girl was acting actually this

530
00:33:00,120 --> 00:33:02,200
Speaker 1: is the first time she'd committed a crime. And she

531
00:33:02,360 --> 00:33:04,920
Speaker 1: picked some kind of heavy object up and she was

532
00:33:05,320 --> 00:33:08,040
Speaker 1: a little unsteady and unsure, and then she hurls it

533
00:33:08,560 --> 00:33:11,280
Speaker 1: smashes the window of one of the pink bugs and

534
00:33:11,360 --> 00:33:14,440
Speaker 1: then stands there, stands there with her mouth open like

535
00:33:14,640 --> 00:33:17,400
Speaker 1: the bimbo that she is, gone, oh wow, look at that.

536
00:33:18,080 --> 00:33:18,880
Speaker 1: Look what I did.

537
00:33:20,160 --> 00:33:20,360
Speaker 3: Well.

538
00:33:20,400 --> 00:33:22,480
Speaker 1: They did a lot of the damage. I guess the

539
00:33:22,560 --> 00:33:25,080
Speaker 1: guy was the gang member maybe they were all gang members.

540
00:33:25,160 --> 00:33:26,960
Speaker 1: Oh and the other girl, one of the other girls

541
00:33:28,120 --> 00:33:31,440
Speaker 1: climbed up on the roof and was twirking, sticking her

542
00:33:31,440 --> 00:33:33,640
Speaker 1: rear end up in the air. You could see it

543
00:33:35,040 --> 00:33:39,240
Speaker 1: under her skirt there she lifted it up. How do

544
00:33:39,320 --> 00:33:42,160
Speaker 1: you raise something like that? I mean a lot of

545
00:33:42,200 --> 00:33:44,680
Speaker 1: guys are hopeless if they're not raised properly. But you

546
00:33:44,840 --> 00:33:49,120
Speaker 1: rarely see girls acting this way and committing this kind

547
00:33:49,160 --> 00:33:52,960
Speaker 1: of damage. What kind of damaged childhoods that they all

548
00:33:53,080 --> 00:33:57,880
Speaker 1: have now they all ought to be charged with felonies

549
00:33:59,000 --> 00:34:02,240
Speaker 1: and they should actually go to jail for years for this.

550
00:34:03,320 --> 00:34:05,200
Speaker 1: We are going to talk to the co founder of

551
00:34:05,240 --> 00:34:08,440
Speaker 1: the Pink Sponge, Jennifer Algrim, when we come back, and

552
00:34:08,680 --> 00:34:11,359
Speaker 1: she's got to go fundme page, and maybe we can

553
00:34:11,840 --> 00:34:14,200
Speaker 1: do our part collectively to help her out. You go

554
00:34:14,280 --> 00:34:20,120
