26
00:01:28,480 --> 00:01:33,080
Speaker 1: Not the mail, one of those block boxes for the ballots.

27
00:01:33,160 --> 00:01:36,480

Speaker 1: to the post office either. I know you vote in person,

32
00:01:46,360 --> 00:01:49,080
Speaker 1: an old guy who doesn't trust anybody or anything. Um,

33
00:01:49,120 --> 00:01:52,280
Speaker 1: Oh you trust the government, Now that's cool. Well, if

34
00:01:52,320 --> 00:01:54,240
Speaker 1: you don't trust the government, the voting machines aren't going

35
00:01:54,320 --> 00:01:57,400
Speaker 1: to help the voting. No. All this stuff adds layers

36
00:01:57,400 --> 00:01:59,600
Speaker 1: of fraud to the system. Yeah, but they're just gonna

37
00:01:59,600 --> 00:02:01,560
Speaker 1: hack into No, you're just you don't want to get

38
00:02:01,640 --> 00:02:04,640
Speaker 1: up off your check. LA County Register of Voters controls

39
00:02:04,640 --> 00:02:06,440
Speaker 1: all the voting machines, so you don't. You're still screwed.

40
00:02:06,520 --> 00:02:08,240
Speaker 1: So what you know, you don't want to get out

41
00:02:08,240 --> 00:02:10,320
Speaker 1: of your chair, like you know, old what's his name?

42
00:02:10,360 --> 00:02:11,919
Speaker 1: Do you want to get out of bed for two weeks?

43
00:02:12,880 --> 00:02:15,280
Speaker 1: Zebra Market's your turn, And so he's about to hit

44
00:02:15,320 --> 00:02:16,639
Speaker 1: on all of us. Well, what are you going to

45
00:02:16,680 --> 00:02:18,680
Speaker 1: say about on me today? I don't know he's got

46
00:02:18,680 --> 00:02:22,080
Speaker 1: something coming because two for two hit me moving around

47
00:02:22,160 --> 00:02:24,440
Speaker 1: the room. Now, Ray, you could go to Ray. Ray

48
00:02:24,480 --> 00:02:28,640
Speaker 1: doesn't really, she's not lazy, thank you. I'm not. There'll

49
00:02:28,680 --> 00:02:32,240
Speaker 1: be something coming your way soon, I'm sure. Anyway, I

50
00:02:32,240 --> 00:02:34,240
Speaker 1: put it in there Saturday morning and by Saturday night

51
00:02:34,280 --> 00:02:37,480
Speaker 1: they'd already counted. It was that too suspicious. I remember

52
00:02:37,520 --> 00:02:40,120
Speaker 1: with the presidential election in twenty twenty, it took a

53
00:02:40,120 --> 00:02:42,000
Speaker 1: while for me to get notification. They received it and

54
00:02:42,040 --> 00:02:45,799
Speaker 1: then they tabulated it. But then I thought, you got

55
00:02:45,800 --> 00:02:48,799
Speaker 1: to remember, a lot, a lot fewer people will be

56
00:02:48,880 --> 00:02:51,280
Speaker 1: voting in the June seventh primary. I know because we

57
00:02:51,360 --> 00:02:53,000
Speaker 1: talk about on the show and we have a voter

58
00:02:53,080 --> 00:02:55,480
Speaker 1: guide and a lot of our listeners vote. But in

59
00:02:55,480 --> 00:02:58,839
Speaker 1: the general population, it's it's not a big rap, that's

60
00:02:58,880 --> 00:03:02,959
Speaker 1: not I was looking at a chart of elections, presidential

61
00:03:03,000 --> 00:03:06,200
Speaker 1: elections versus I think it was the state of California too.

62
00:03:06,400 --> 00:03:10,840
Speaker 1: Congressional seats versus um the off years, you know, like

63
00:03:11,800 --> 00:03:14,120
Speaker 1: they want to coming up now twenty twenty two, and

64
00:03:14,160 --> 00:03:18,520
Speaker 1: then there was twenty eighteen, significantly less number voters. People

65
00:03:18,520 --> 00:03:21,120
Speaker 1: are just sub jacked up by a presidential election. They

66
00:03:21,160 --> 00:03:23,280
Speaker 1: show up, Yeah, and it has it has the least,

67
00:03:23,360 --> 00:03:26,000
Speaker 1: it has the least effect on our lives, right, the least.

68
00:03:26,600 --> 00:03:30,440
Speaker 1: And so you get a lot of fanatics who go

69
00:03:30,560 --> 00:03:34,200
Speaker 1: voting like union people, and they vote all for all

70
00:03:34,200 --> 00:03:37,080
Speaker 1: these progressive a holes, and then you wonder why you

71
00:03:37,080 --> 00:03:39,600
Speaker 1: have seventy thousand people dying in the street and mountains

72
00:03:39,600 --> 00:03:43,800
Speaker 1: of garbage and criminals running amuck because just the progressive

73
00:03:43,840 --> 00:03:47,680
Speaker 1: fanatics vote and everybody goes, I don't know you, I'm

74
00:03:47,680 --> 00:03:54,960
Speaker 1: watching Netflix. So too hard for them. Yeah. So, but

75
00:03:55,080 --> 00:03:58,560
Speaker 1: the good thing here is our governor's races doesn't coincide

76
00:03:58,560 --> 00:04:01,320
Speaker 1: with the presidential This is this year, twenty two. This

77
00:04:01,400 --> 00:04:04,160
Speaker 1: is a mid term election. So same thing for the

78
00:04:04,160 --> 00:04:06,680
Speaker 1: mayor of LA And that's finally even moved to November.

79
00:04:08,280 --> 00:04:12,080
Speaker 1: This was the best story, hands down of the weekend,

80
00:04:12,160 --> 00:04:14,720
Speaker 1: under the category of people are starting to fight back,

81
00:04:14,960 --> 00:04:17,600
Speaker 1: And there's actually two stories, but the one getting more

82
00:04:17,600 --> 00:04:21,200
Speaker 1: attention and for obvious reasons. There's a video. Everybody loves

83
00:04:21,200 --> 00:04:25,360
Speaker 1: a video. It's the attempted jewelry store robbery and Huntington Beach.

84
00:04:25,400 --> 00:04:29,599
Speaker 1: Have you watched the video, John, It is fantastic. You

85
00:04:29,600 --> 00:04:32,640
Speaker 1: should watch it if you get a chance. Four suspects

86
00:04:32,640 --> 00:04:34,440
Speaker 1: walk into a store, and of course they're like head

87
00:04:34,480 --> 00:04:37,000
Speaker 1: to toe and hoodies and sweatshirts and all dark clothing, right,

88
00:04:37,240 --> 00:04:40,440
Speaker 1: the typical. They've all got sledgehammers, right, they had, right

89
00:04:40,480 --> 00:04:43,279
Speaker 1: for the jewelry case. And then out of nowhere comes

90
00:04:43,320 --> 00:04:46,000
Speaker 1: everybody that works there, fighting them in every way they can,

91
00:04:46,440 --> 00:04:49,960
Speaker 1: including apparently one woman who grabs a stool like with

92
00:04:50,000 --> 00:04:52,240
Speaker 1: the big metal bottom and she hits the guys with it,

93
00:04:52,560 --> 00:04:55,040
Speaker 1: and they just start throwing things at them, and they ran.

94
00:04:55,520 --> 00:04:59,120
Speaker 1: The suspects ran, and they got nothing. What you gotta do, Well,

95
00:05:00,080 --> 00:05:02,400
Speaker 1: had a gun, this could have been Well, then that's good.

96
00:05:02,480 --> 00:05:04,200
Speaker 1: That's what they should do. You should do. Yeah, you

97
00:05:04,200 --> 00:05:07,320
Speaker 1: got to defend yourself gun hammer or whatever. No, I

98
00:05:07,360 --> 00:05:09,640
Speaker 1: meant if the robbers had a gun away, you know,

99
00:05:09,839 --> 00:05:12,760
Speaker 1: shot these. I think it's time to go to war.

100
00:05:13,760 --> 00:05:15,760
Speaker 1: And wow, that's what I'm thinking too. Maybe the good,

101
00:05:15,760 --> 00:05:17,600
Speaker 1: guys are gonna have to You can't just stand by

102
00:05:17,640 --> 00:05:18,960
Speaker 1: and put up with this. I mean, this was in

103
00:05:18,960 --> 00:05:21,760
Speaker 1: the middle of the day yesterday. It's not like they

104
00:05:21,800 --> 00:05:24,480
Speaker 1: did this when the store was closed. This was the

105
00:05:24,520 --> 00:05:28,359
Speaker 1: Princess Bridge Diamonds Jewelry store at the Bella Terra shopping

106
00:05:28,400 --> 00:05:32,719
Speaker 1: mall in Huntington's Beach. And uh, this one woman just

107
00:05:32,720 --> 00:05:35,920
Speaker 1: starts kicking the guy on the ground. It was fantastic

108
00:05:36,160 --> 00:05:39,400
Speaker 1: pushing them out the door and they gave up, which

109
00:05:39,440 --> 00:05:42,279
Speaker 1: tells me they look like they're probably young, and maybe

110
00:05:42,520 --> 00:05:45,200
Speaker 1: they're just copying something they saw other people do. Because

111
00:05:45,839 --> 00:05:47,640
Speaker 1: but in the end it says in the story they

112
00:05:47,640 --> 00:05:51,600
Speaker 1: didn't get anything. Well, I'm watching it now. No, it's great.

113
00:05:52,400 --> 00:05:54,880
Speaker 1: Oh this is great. Oh oh I like the woman

114
00:05:54,960 --> 00:05:58,560
Speaker 1: kicking the crap out of that guy. Yeah, stool yet

115
00:05:58,640 --> 00:06:02,320
Speaker 1: with the chair, yeah yeah, yeah, Oh that's beautiful. She

116
00:06:02,400 --> 00:06:05,719
Speaker 1: bashes one guy with it. Apparently the male involved in

117
00:06:05,800 --> 00:06:07,719
Speaker 1: fighting back did get hit with one of the hammers.

118
00:06:07,720 --> 00:06:10,320
Speaker 1: He said in his cheek. All right, he starts taking

119
00:06:10,320 --> 00:06:13,240
Speaker 1: piece like him the boxing ring. He starts throwing punches.

120
00:06:14,160 --> 00:06:16,120
Speaker 1: That is I'm gonna watch it all over again. I

121
00:06:16,200 --> 00:06:20,760
Speaker 1: hate to sit through a woke sunglasses commercial. First, Oh, oh, okay,

122
00:06:21,080 --> 00:06:26,880
Speaker 1: good smash by the robbers to open things up. Yeah.

123
00:06:27,000 --> 00:06:33,240
Speaker 1: The other story comes from Walnut where a homeowner got

124
00:06:33,240 --> 00:06:35,080
Speaker 1: broken in. Because these are the big things going on,

125
00:06:35,160 --> 00:06:38,120
Speaker 1: people breaking into people's homes, and people try and smash

126
00:06:38,120 --> 00:06:41,320
Speaker 1: and grabs, especially at jewelry stores. That one makes sense

127
00:06:41,400 --> 00:06:43,520
Speaker 1: because if you want to get as much as you

128
00:06:43,560 --> 00:06:47,840
Speaker 1: can expense wise, as quickly as possible. Yeah, smashing jewelry

129
00:06:47,839 --> 00:06:49,960
Speaker 1: cases and grabbing everything you can, you can get quite

130
00:06:49,960 --> 00:06:56,120
Speaker 1: a haul. This four am, apparently the family began hearing

131
00:06:56,160 --> 00:06:59,560
Speaker 1: footsteps inside their home, and when they went to check

132
00:06:59,600 --> 00:07:02,240
Speaker 1: on the noise, boys, the male homeowner was confronted by

133
00:07:02,240 --> 00:07:05,520
Speaker 1: a man armed with a handgun, but the homeowner had

134
00:07:05,520 --> 00:07:10,760
Speaker 1: one two so shooting broke out and the suspected burglar

135
00:07:11,000 --> 00:07:14,160
Speaker 1: gunshot wounds to his upper stomach. He was pronounced dead

136
00:07:14,160 --> 00:07:17,560
Speaker 1: at the scene. Second intruder fled. The people that live

137
00:07:17,600 --> 00:07:21,320
Speaker 1: in the house in their twenties uninjured. It says here

138
00:07:21,480 --> 00:07:24,240
Speaker 1: unclear whether the homeowner had his own gun. Okay, where

139
00:07:24,240 --> 00:07:26,560
Speaker 1: did he get get the gun then to shoot the intruder?

140
00:07:26,600 --> 00:07:28,920
Speaker 1: I don't know what that means, whether he owned it

141
00:07:29,000 --> 00:07:32,440
Speaker 1: or not. Yeah, it just says unclear whether the homeowner

142
00:07:32,520 --> 00:07:35,240
Speaker 1: had his own gun. Oh so they don't know if

143
00:07:35,240 --> 00:07:41,080
Speaker 1: he owned it, right, Yeah, I got it. I don't know.

144
00:07:41,240 --> 00:07:45,360
Speaker 1: It makes no sense to me. You can't get here.

145
00:07:45,400 --> 00:07:48,400
Speaker 1: In response, city officials said, crime rights in the enclave

146
00:07:48,440 --> 00:07:51,600
Speaker 1: in eastern Los Angeles County are low compared to neighboring cities.

147
00:07:52,040 --> 00:07:54,239
Speaker 1: This is uncommon in our city. In the Walnut sheriff

148
00:07:54,280 --> 00:07:56,520
Speaker 1: station will be utilizing all their resources to investigate the

149
00:07:56,560 --> 00:08:00,480
Speaker 1: matter because the other attack or a home in Vader

150
00:08:00,520 --> 00:08:03,440
Speaker 1: got away, but he killed one. So there you go.

151
00:08:03,800 --> 00:08:06,200
Speaker 1: You take the little things, right, You take some people

152
00:08:06,240 --> 00:08:08,360
Speaker 1: fighting back in a jewelry store, and you take a

153
00:08:08,440 --> 00:08:11,160
Speaker 1: homeowner in Walnuts. Now that's grew you and shooting the

154
00:08:11,240 --> 00:08:13,560
Speaker 1: robbers the jewelry store. I wonder if they'd rehearse that

155
00:08:14,480 --> 00:08:20,320
Speaker 1: because all those workers went into an aggressive position immediately. Yeah.

156
00:08:20,360 --> 00:08:23,720
Speaker 1: I saw the two of them were women, and I've

157
00:08:23,760 --> 00:08:25,920
Speaker 1: got to think that they rehearse this because they know

158
00:08:26,000 --> 00:08:28,280
Speaker 1: that they would be uh, they were going to be next.

159
00:08:28,280 --> 00:08:31,480
Speaker 1: Eventually their store would be would be bashed in. Right,

160
00:08:31,560 --> 00:08:34,000
Speaker 1: that makes sense. I saw him interviewed, I think it

161
00:08:34,040 --> 00:08:36,440
Speaker 1: was by Channel five, and he said something to the

162
00:08:36,480 --> 00:08:39,560
Speaker 1: effect of just adrenaline kicked in and I just found

163
00:08:39,559 --> 00:08:42,120
Speaker 1: myself I gotta do something. I can't just let this happen.

164
00:08:42,400 --> 00:08:43,920
Speaker 1: And he's the first one to run out there and

165
00:08:43,960 --> 00:08:46,080
Speaker 1: start punching with the guy, but they all did, and

166
00:08:46,080 --> 00:08:48,160
Speaker 1: they were also aggressed. I think the other two followed

167
00:08:48,240 --> 00:08:49,679
Speaker 1: him and said, well, we got to help him. I

168
00:08:50,040 --> 00:08:52,040
Speaker 1: don't know. Yeah, I just wonder. I wonder if they

169
00:08:52,080 --> 00:08:53,679
Speaker 1: talked to me, we should get one, we should get

170
00:08:53,679 --> 00:08:55,800
Speaker 1: one of him on the air, I tried. I told

171
00:08:55,880 --> 00:08:58,160
Speaker 1: ray to I wanted the woman who was wail it

172
00:08:58,240 --> 00:09:00,760
Speaker 1: away and getting Oh yeah, I saw her kicking the

173
00:09:00,760 --> 00:09:03,240
Speaker 1: guy after he was down. That was good. I enjoyed that.

174
00:09:03,640 --> 00:09:06,280
Speaker 1: And they don't have a knife or a gun though.

175
00:09:06,320 --> 00:09:08,240
Speaker 1: That's the only thing that would make me a little

176
00:09:08,280 --> 00:09:12,000
Speaker 1: hesitant to go running. Yeah, you know what you got,

177
00:09:12,040 --> 00:09:14,880
Speaker 1: you just we just gotta we gotta fight back, because

178
00:09:15,280 --> 00:09:18,079
Speaker 1: you know, the the the all the politicians have failed us,

179
00:09:18,280 --> 00:09:20,160
Speaker 1: the police have failed us. So what are you gonna do.

180
00:09:20,320 --> 00:09:21,880
Speaker 1: Just let him take the stuff. And that's the thing.

181
00:09:22,080 --> 00:09:23,840
Speaker 1: All they talk about is gun control, and they want

182
00:09:23,880 --> 00:09:26,240
Speaker 1: to get guns out of people's hands. You're seeing people

183
00:09:26,280 --> 00:09:28,520
Speaker 1: buy more guns because of this because you're allowing the

184
00:09:28,520 --> 00:09:31,240
Speaker 1: criminal justice system to crumble, so they feel like they're

185
00:09:31,240 --> 00:09:34,120
Speaker 1: on their own. Oh, gun sales, I saw a whole thing.

186
00:09:34,400 --> 00:09:38,000
Speaker 1: Over the last twenty years. Gun sales have exploded and

187
00:09:38,200 --> 00:09:41,760
Speaker 1: stayed very high now for twenty years. So the gun

188
00:09:41,800 --> 00:09:43,680
Speaker 1: control thing, that's a dead issue that should never be

189
00:09:43,720 --> 00:09:46,959
Speaker 1: discussed again. It's gone exactly in the reverse now to

190
00:09:47,120 --> 00:09:50,920
Speaker 1: four hundred million guns in the country. Yeah, gun production

191
00:09:51,040 --> 00:09:54,080
Speaker 1: took off in the US, record number first time buyers.

192
00:09:54,679 --> 00:09:58,439
Speaker 1: And and you know what, the good guys aren't killing anybody,

193
00:09:58,440 --> 00:10:00,960
Speaker 1: all right. Most of the murders are same old bad guys.

194
00:10:02,040 --> 00:10:05,559
Speaker 1: So their stupid argument is bologny. It's nonsense, and it's

195
00:10:05,640 --> 00:10:09,240
Speaker 1: unworkable anyway, unworkable, unenforceable. So if you're a good guy, yeah,

196
00:10:09,360 --> 00:10:12,520
Speaker 1: arm yourself, go crazy, all right. When we come back

197
00:10:12,559 --> 00:10:16,760
Speaker 1: related to this, you'll see Rick Caruso picked up another

198
00:10:16,920 --> 00:10:19,600
Speaker 1: endorsement in his run for mayor. Coming up next, John

199
00:10:19,600 --> 00:10:22,439
Speaker 1: and Ken Kfi. You know, one of the problems that

200
00:10:22,520 --> 00:10:27,040
Speaker 1: the Biden handlers have when he travels, which is rare,

201
00:10:28,120 --> 00:10:31,240
Speaker 1: and he's now in an overseas trip. As you know,

202
00:10:31,360 --> 00:10:35,439
Speaker 1: he has been in several countries including South Korea. Now

203
00:10:35,480 --> 00:10:37,880
Speaker 1: he's in Japan and he was at some press conference

204
00:10:38,400 --> 00:10:40,840
Speaker 1: meeting with the Prime minister, and of course he's followed

205
00:10:40,840 --> 00:10:44,640
Speaker 1: by reporters, so they don't care about Japan and US.

206
00:10:44,840 --> 00:10:46,679
Speaker 1: You know, there was a question obviously we'll get too

207
00:10:46,720 --> 00:10:49,560
Speaker 1: later about Taiwan, but I guess someone asked him about

208
00:10:49,600 --> 00:10:53,400
Speaker 1: gas prices, and this is what he said today. When

209
00:10:53,400 --> 00:10:55,480
Speaker 1: it comes to the gas prices, we're going through an

210
00:10:55,480 --> 00:10:59,040
Speaker 1: incredible transition that is taking place, God willing, when it's over,

211
00:10:59,080 --> 00:11:01,199
Speaker 1: will be stronger and the world will be stronger and

212
00:11:01,280 --> 00:11:04,200
Speaker 1: less reliant on fossil fuels when this is over. They're

213
00:11:04,200 --> 00:11:07,600
Speaker 1: doing it on purpose. That's yeah, they're doing that. They're

214
00:11:07,640 --> 00:11:11,160
Speaker 1: doing this on purpose. Well, they certainly like it. He's well,

215
00:11:11,240 --> 00:11:15,920
Speaker 1: I mean, because they've cut so so much future oil supply,

216
00:11:17,000 --> 00:11:20,520
Speaker 1: so that's going to keep the prices high, you know,

217
00:11:20,559 --> 00:11:23,440
Speaker 1: for the foreseeable future until we get a different president.

218
00:11:24,440 --> 00:11:26,280
Speaker 1: And well, they're going to find out that's what's going

219
00:11:26,360 --> 00:11:29,199
Speaker 1: to happen. If they think this is the tonic that

220
00:11:29,240 --> 00:11:32,280
Speaker 1: the country needs to go electric or go some other

221
00:11:32,679 --> 00:11:36,360
Speaker 1: means of transportation, they're gonna be very sorry, come to remember,

222
00:11:36,480 --> 00:11:38,840
Speaker 1: because this is one of the top issues for people's inflation,

223
00:11:38,960 --> 00:11:41,160
Speaker 1: like gas products. They're getting their asses kicked out of

224
00:11:41,160 --> 00:11:44,679
Speaker 1: office because nobody wants this. Most people don't want an

225
00:11:44,679 --> 00:11:48,040
Speaker 1: electric car. Why would they commit suicide? I don't know.

226
00:11:48,080 --> 00:11:51,559
Speaker 1: Why does anyone commit suicide? I mean it happens all

227
00:11:51,559 --> 00:11:55,720
Speaker 1: the time, like themselves over climate change. Yeah, exactly, all right.

228
00:11:55,720 --> 00:11:57,640
Speaker 1: He got a guy willing to set himself on fire

229
00:11:57,720 --> 00:12:01,760
Speaker 1: and die for climate change. So these people are fanatics.

230
00:12:01,960 --> 00:12:04,880
Speaker 1: It is it is group think. It is mass hysteria.

231
00:12:05,000 --> 00:12:08,000
Speaker 1: These people have can convinced themselves that we're we're all

232
00:12:08,040 --> 00:12:11,439
Speaker 1: gonna die, We're gonna boil ourselves in the atmosphere. You

233
00:12:11,480 --> 00:12:14,839
Speaker 1: can't deal with mass hysteria. And they will maybe fifty

234
00:12:14,960 --> 00:12:16,840
Speaker 1: hundred years from now, write a book on this era.

235
00:12:17,200 --> 00:12:19,839
Speaker 1: And the and and the title of the book ought

236
00:12:19,880 --> 00:12:22,439
Speaker 1: to be mass hysteria. There have been so many examples

237
00:12:22,440 --> 00:12:27,320
Speaker 1: of it. It's it's contagious too. And uh, we're just

238
00:12:27,360 --> 00:12:30,160
Speaker 1: gonna ride this until November, and we'll see if there's

239
00:12:30,200 --> 00:12:33,360
Speaker 1: a we get the other party in power, you get

240
00:12:33,360 --> 00:12:36,040
Speaker 1: the Republicans in power. If that doesn't shake up Biden

241
00:12:36,400 --> 00:12:40,280
Speaker 1: and as stooges, especially as stooges because they're running things,

242
00:12:40,679 --> 00:12:42,360
Speaker 1: and if not, then we're gonna have two more years

243
00:12:42,360 --> 00:12:45,680
Speaker 1: of this crap until until we completely clean out the colon.

244
00:12:46,280 --> 00:12:48,559
Speaker 1: But are these are bad policies? You know a lot

245
00:12:48,559 --> 00:12:51,959
Speaker 1: of this stuff going on are just bad, failed policies.

246
00:12:52,000 --> 00:12:54,840
Speaker 1: It's been proven they're bad, and it's no longer debatable.

247
00:12:54,840 --> 00:12:57,680
Speaker 1: You got to you gotta dramatically increase the supply gas

248
00:12:57,679 --> 00:12:59,760
Speaker 1: and oil. Period. We're gonna have to keep debating it

249
00:12:59,760 --> 00:13:01,400
Speaker 1: if you keep these people in power, because that's all

250
00:13:01,400 --> 00:13:03,520
Speaker 1: we're gonna get, just like we have here in California.

251
00:13:03,720 --> 00:13:06,280
Speaker 1: They want to turn the US into the California Way.

252
00:13:06,400 --> 00:13:10,959
Speaker 1: I'm talking about that. No nobody wants to pay this money. No, no,

253
00:13:11,160 --> 00:13:14,719
Speaker 1: nobody does. It's like nobody. Nobody wants criminals running am mock.

254
00:13:14,760 --> 00:13:17,120
Speaker 1: Nobody wants seventy thousand homeless people dine in the streets.

255
00:13:17,120 --> 00:13:21,160
Speaker 1: Nobody wants this. There's no constituency. A CBS you Gov

256
00:13:21,280 --> 00:13:24,160
Speaker 1: poll over the weekend, a lot of people did not

257
00:13:24,280 --> 00:13:26,439
Speaker 1: feel that the country's in a good place right now,

258
00:13:26,480 --> 00:13:31,160
Speaker 1: and fifty seven percent said that Biden is distracted. Fifty

259
00:13:31,160 --> 00:13:36,320
Speaker 1: one percent called him incompetent. Tis a competent president would

260
00:13:36,320 --> 00:13:39,679
Speaker 1: turn on all the spigots he could find and build

261
00:13:39,720 --> 00:13:49,559
Speaker 1: pipelines and give out drilling licenses oil extraction permits. He

262
00:13:49,600 --> 00:13:51,200
Speaker 1: would he would do whatever he can to get as

263
00:13:51,280 --> 00:13:54,000
Speaker 1: much gas and oil to the market as quickly as possible,

264
00:13:54,360 --> 00:13:57,040
Speaker 1: and in a year or two things would be dramatically different.

265
00:13:57,320 --> 00:14:00,240
Speaker 1: But he is incompetent. He's because because that isn't. Entire

266
00:14:00,280 --> 00:14:04,360
Speaker 1: cabinet is filled with true believing religious fanatics. Look at

267
00:14:04,400 --> 00:14:08,880
Speaker 1: what people who are devout believers in various religions. Look

268
00:14:08,920 --> 00:14:11,200
Speaker 1: what they do, Look what they wear, look at the

269
00:14:11,320 --> 00:14:14,400
Speaker 1: stories they believe in, look at their behavior at times

270
00:14:14,720 --> 00:14:17,640
Speaker 1: if you look at it objectively and not get consumed

271
00:14:17,640 --> 00:14:20,400
Speaker 1: by the fear of well, we really can't say we

272
00:14:20,440 --> 00:14:23,480
Speaker 1: can't make fun of anyone who's religious. We can't judge them.

273
00:14:23,480 --> 00:14:25,680
Speaker 1: It's like, judge them for a minute, actually look at

274
00:14:25,720 --> 00:14:28,640
Speaker 1: them objectively, how they behave, and a lot of it's nuts,

275
00:14:28,640 --> 00:14:31,720
Speaker 1: just flat out nuts. Well, we have religious people now

276
00:14:32,840 --> 00:14:35,960
Speaker 1: running this government and they believe that we're harming Mother Earth.

277
00:14:36,800 --> 00:14:41,320
Speaker 1: Sixty five percent believe that Biden is slow to react

278
00:14:41,400 --> 00:14:44,880
Speaker 1: to important issues and events that arise, and that even

279
00:14:44,920 --> 00:14:47,840
Speaker 1: included almost forty percent of Democrats who said he is,

280
00:14:48,560 --> 00:14:50,800
Speaker 1: and sometimes he doesn't react at all. He just lets

281
00:14:50,840 --> 00:14:54,360
Speaker 1: things happen. I mean, this inflation has been a slow

282
00:14:54,400 --> 00:14:56,280
Speaker 1: moving disaster for a year and a half. He hasn't

283
00:14:56,320 --> 00:15:00,400
Speaker 1: done anything. Everything he's done made it, has made it worse. Well,

284
00:15:00,560 --> 00:15:03,680
Speaker 1: if gas is like six fifty a gallon, any other

285
00:15:03,720 --> 00:15:08,160
Speaker 1: president we've ever had would immediately make every decision to

286
00:15:08,240 --> 00:15:11,400
Speaker 1: increase the supply. Instead, he calls up Saudi Arabia. He

287
00:15:11,440 --> 00:15:13,560
Speaker 1: was trying to get Saudi Arabia to increase the supply,

288
00:15:13,960 --> 00:15:16,080
Speaker 1: and they won't pick up the phone. They literally wouldn't

289
00:15:16,080 --> 00:15:18,080
Speaker 1: answer the phone for him. So, if you're calling Saudi

290
00:15:18,080 --> 00:15:21,120
Speaker 1: Arabia to increase their supply, why wouldn't you increase your

291
00:15:21,160 --> 00:15:25,120
Speaker 1: own supply. It all goes into the same atmosphere. He's

292
00:15:25,120 --> 00:15:30,760
Speaker 1: a stooge. It it's like it's like you suddenly decided

293
00:15:30,800 --> 00:15:32,680
Speaker 1: in your house you weren't going to go and buy

294
00:15:32,680 --> 00:15:35,080
Speaker 1: food anymore, but you were going to call the neighbor

295
00:15:35,080 --> 00:15:37,200
Speaker 1: and ask them to bring over their food every day.

296
00:15:37,760 --> 00:15:39,600
Speaker 1: What are you doing? Go buy your own food. Let's

297
00:15:39,600 --> 00:15:42,440
Speaker 1: produce our own gas and oil. We have it. I

298
00:15:42,760 --> 00:15:45,880
Speaker 1: just I'm it's flat or gasting. How bad he is

299
00:15:46,280 --> 00:15:51,440
Speaker 1: The whole lot of them. Meanwhile, there is allegedly, and

300
00:15:51,560 --> 00:15:57,400
Speaker 1: they call themselves the Bipartisan Problem Solver's Caucus. This is

301
00:15:57,440 --> 00:16:02,760
Speaker 1: Sacramento legislators. They're supposedly Republicans and Democrats who have been

302
00:16:02,760 --> 00:16:07,160
Speaker 1: meeting to come up with some solution for people who

303
00:16:07,360 --> 00:16:11,840
Speaker 1: have to use gasoline. I don't know how many Democrats

304
00:16:11,840 --> 00:16:14,120
Speaker 1: there are. They're supposed to make an announcement this week,

305
00:16:14,520 --> 00:16:18,320
Speaker 1: but allegedly this bill will once again attempt to suspend

306
00:16:18,320 --> 00:16:22,080
Speaker 1: the gas tax. Now they have some Democrats on board,

307
00:16:22,080 --> 00:16:23,760
Speaker 1: but I don't I don't know that they have enough

308
00:16:24,920 --> 00:16:27,880
Speaker 1: to according the lead author is a Democrat named Adam

309
00:16:27,960 --> 00:16:30,800
Speaker 1: Gray of mur said. He said that the way they

310
00:16:30,840 --> 00:16:34,400
Speaker 1: wrote the bill would require oil companies to pass savings

311
00:16:34,400 --> 00:16:37,840
Speaker 1: from the gas tax on to consumer, while companies passed

312
00:16:37,880 --> 00:16:41,000
Speaker 1: the gas tax savings. That's a completely made up myth.

313
00:16:41,800 --> 00:16:46,400
Speaker 1: That is just complete nonsense. They already had gas taxes

314
00:16:46,680 --> 00:16:49,080
Speaker 1: reduced in other states and they all companies have passed

315
00:16:49,120 --> 00:16:52,560
Speaker 1: it along. They're not going to keep gas tax money. Well,

316
00:16:52,560 --> 00:16:54,920
Speaker 1: we know they pass along the increases. That's we know

317
00:16:55,040 --> 00:16:57,200
Speaker 1: from that climate bill they passed a few years ago.

318
00:16:57,240 --> 00:17:01,160
Speaker 1: We because that's why California as close to the reason

319
00:17:01,200 --> 00:17:03,920
Speaker 1: the California has over a dollar more. They're not gonna

320
00:17:04,040 --> 00:17:07,880
Speaker 1: They're not gonna pay a ridiculous, unfair tax. Of course

321
00:17:07,920 --> 00:17:10,119
Speaker 1: they're not. I would do that too, I would pass it,

322
00:17:10,160 --> 00:17:12,040
Speaker 1: pass it down. Why why should Why should I take

323
00:17:12,040 --> 00:17:15,680
Speaker 1: a hit because the people elect these these looney bins.

324
00:17:15,680 --> 00:17:19,560
Speaker 1: If the people elect looney bins who are compulsively raising taxes,

325
00:17:19,600 --> 00:17:21,480
Speaker 1: then let the people pay the taxes. Why should the

326
00:17:21,520 --> 00:17:25,479
Speaker 1: corporations have to pay? They don't trust executives to pass Now,

327
00:17:25,560 --> 00:17:28,800
Speaker 1: I trust the oil executives more than I trust Newsom

328
00:17:28,800 --> 00:17:31,760
Speaker 1: in the Democratic legislature. Yes, so if they knock off

329
00:17:31,760 --> 00:17:34,840
Speaker 1: fifty something sents a gallon, because that's the California gas tax,

330
00:17:34,920 --> 00:17:37,120
Speaker 1: you think the old companies will say, okay, we'll stay fair,

331
00:17:37,200 --> 00:17:39,760
Speaker 1: but drop all the prices. Fifty cents, but we'll see it.

332
00:17:40,119 --> 00:17:42,680
Speaker 1: That's the thing. They can't drop it like twenty cents

333
00:17:42,720 --> 00:17:45,280
Speaker 1: and say we're still seeing rising prices. We're sorry, No,

334
00:17:45,400 --> 00:17:47,959
Speaker 1: it doesn't make up all the difference. They can't. They

335
00:17:47,960 --> 00:17:50,760
Speaker 1: can't because the world oil prices are a public we

336
00:17:51,080 --> 00:17:53,720
Speaker 1: know exactly how much it's going for for for a

337
00:17:53,760 --> 00:17:55,720
Speaker 1: gallon of gas anyway, But There's always been a mystery

338
00:17:55,720 --> 00:17:58,520
Speaker 1: because they don't always connect directly to what we plucked.

339
00:17:58,520 --> 00:18:04,439
Speaker 1: The pump seems. Look, the low tax states are a

340
00:18:04,480 --> 00:18:07,399
Speaker 1: buck fifty less than we are, So why aren't the

341
00:18:07,400 --> 00:18:10,320
Speaker 1: oil companies charging an extra dollar dollar fifty in the

342
00:18:10,359 --> 00:18:13,560
Speaker 1: other forty nine states. They're not. They're only charging it

343
00:18:13,680 --> 00:18:16,760
Speaker 1: here because that happens to be our extra tax. Otherwise

344
00:18:16,840 --> 00:18:19,840
Speaker 1: we'd be paying four fifty or four seventy, whatever it

345
00:18:19,920 --> 00:18:22,840
Speaker 1: is now. So it's a difference between us and the

346
00:18:22,840 --> 00:18:25,720
Speaker 1: other forty nine states. It's because of our taxes. It's

347
00:18:25,720 --> 00:18:28,480
Speaker 1: not because of the oil companies. The oil companies might

348
00:18:28,520 --> 00:18:30,720
Speaker 1: be padding to get you to four fifty, but they're

349
00:18:30,720 --> 00:18:33,080
Speaker 1: not padding to get you to six. The padding to

350
00:18:33,119 --> 00:18:36,280
Speaker 1: get you to six comes from Newsom in the Democratic legislature.

351
00:18:36,560 --> 00:18:38,120
Speaker 1: So if they cut it off, it should go back

352
00:18:38,119 --> 00:18:40,439
Speaker 1: to four fifty like all the other states. All Right,

353
00:18:40,440 --> 00:18:43,040
Speaker 1: we got more coming up, John and ken Kfi. I

354
00:18:43,160 --> 00:18:46,280
Speaker 1: just saw that Biden story that we were talking about.

355
00:18:46,960 --> 00:18:49,800
Speaker 1: I just read the first report just came over within

356
00:18:49,880 --> 00:18:55,360
Speaker 1: the last hour. Holy crap. I had never ever Well,

357
00:18:55,400 --> 00:18:57,879
Speaker 1: they dug out the audio if you want to hear it. Yeah,

358
00:18:57,880 --> 00:18:59,800
Speaker 1: I think everybody should hear this, because I think this

359
00:18:59,880 --> 00:19:02,040
Speaker 1: is going to be a turning point. I think it's

360
00:19:02,040 --> 00:19:06,240
Speaker 1: gonna be a big turning point here because they're admitting.

361
00:19:06,240 --> 00:19:11,800
Speaker 1: He's admitting that they're his policies are forcing the press

362
00:19:11,920 --> 00:19:14,520
Speaker 1: transition and they're they're doing it on purpose. But we

363
00:19:14,560 --> 00:19:18,679
Speaker 1: have nothing to transition too. Okay, there's no electrical grid

364
00:19:19,040 --> 00:19:21,159
Speaker 1: for us to switch our electric cars to. We're just

365
00:19:21,200 --> 00:19:23,640
Speaker 1: going to pay a lot in gas money for years

366
00:19:23,640 --> 00:19:26,240
Speaker 1: and years and years. There's nowhere to plug the fing

367
00:19:26,320 --> 00:19:29,600
Speaker 1: car too. And you know what the average electric car costs,

368
00:19:29,720 --> 00:19:34,320
Speaker 1: It's like like sixty two thousand dollars. I mean, I

369
00:19:34,359 --> 00:19:37,680
Speaker 1: mean that this is crazy. They're forcing it. They're forcing

370
00:19:37,760 --> 00:19:42,000
Speaker 1: us into something that does not perform as well as

371
00:19:42,040 --> 00:19:45,639
Speaker 1: a gas powered car, is much more expensive, and there's

372
00:19:45,760 --> 00:19:50,480
Speaker 1: nowhere to charge the cars. Don't forget it was a

373
00:19:50,520 --> 00:19:54,400
Speaker 1: great article we read last week on the topic, and

374
00:19:54,560 --> 00:19:58,439
Speaker 1: that's basically that electric cars actually do use a lot

375
00:19:58,520 --> 00:20:03,679
Speaker 1: of elements that are pressure and sixty one of the

376
00:20:03,760 --> 00:20:07,320
Speaker 1: electric car, whatever you want to call it, propulsion comes

377
00:20:07,400 --> 00:20:10,800
Speaker 1: from fossil fuels. Yes, because of they'mber to keep in mind,

378
00:20:10,960 --> 00:20:14,080
Speaker 1: you have to feed a goal a goal, coal and

379
00:20:14,160 --> 00:20:19,200
Speaker 1: natural gas into the electric generating plant to create the electricity.

380
00:20:19,480 --> 00:20:23,640
Speaker 1: Where was this idea that electric was clean. You can't

381
00:20:23,720 --> 00:20:27,240
Speaker 1: create electricity in the real world, right now. Get some

382
00:20:27,320 --> 00:20:31,119
Speaker 1: of it from hydropower or water, but small amounts. But

383
00:20:31,240 --> 00:20:35,320
Speaker 1: we don't have a large network of hydropower or wind

384
00:20:35,520 --> 00:20:40,919
Speaker 1: or solar. It's totally made up. They're just because everyone

385
00:20:41,000 --> 00:20:43,480
Speaker 1: drives around and if they have a gas car, that's

386
00:20:43,520 --> 00:20:46,320
Speaker 1: just putting the carbon into the atmosphere directly. But you're right,

387
00:20:46,800 --> 00:20:49,679
Speaker 1: before the electric car travels around, there was carbon use

388
00:20:49,720 --> 00:20:54,280
Speaker 1: it make it. It's the same carbon though it's carbon

389
00:20:54,359 --> 00:20:57,360
Speaker 1: at the front end or carbon at the back end. Well,

390
00:20:57,359 --> 00:21:00,119
Speaker 1: they've accepted your gas car is one hundred percent fossil fuel,

391
00:21:00,400 --> 00:21:02,679
Speaker 1: so right, But one hundred percent of the electricity in

392
00:21:02,720 --> 00:21:08,600
Speaker 1: most areas or close to it, sixty comes from maybe

393
00:21:08,680 --> 00:21:13,239
Speaker 1: maybe in uh maybe in California. We're the only ones

394
00:21:13,280 --> 00:21:16,280
Speaker 1: with electric cars anyway. Yeah, and it's a tiny percentage.

395
00:21:16,280 --> 00:21:18,040
Speaker 1: It's not really catching on with the rest of the country.

396
00:21:18,040 --> 00:21:20,040
Speaker 1: Most of the rounds of time in United State, Wall

397
00:21:20,040 --> 00:21:23,280
Speaker 1: Street Journal says most electric vehicles can't can't go more

398
00:21:23,280 --> 00:21:25,879
Speaker 1: than two hundred and fifty miles on a charge and

399
00:21:26,080 --> 00:21:29,320
Speaker 1: less in cold weather, drivers worry for good reason that

400
00:21:29,359 --> 00:21:34,480
Speaker 1: they'll run out of juice on the road, And he

401
00:21:34,520 --> 00:21:42,320
Speaker 1: writes about the public charging stations. There's more. There's more

402
00:21:42,320 --> 00:21:46,520
Speaker 1: public charging stations in California's Bay Area, but a recent

403
00:21:46,680 --> 00:21:49,399
Speaker 1: study found that less less than three quarters of the

404
00:21:49,480 --> 00:21:53,840
Speaker 1: charging stations worked. In many cases, the plug screens or

405
00:21:53,920 --> 00:21:57,640
Speaker 1: payment systems were broken, or the connector cables weren't long

406
00:21:57,760 --> 00:22:00,880
Speaker 1: enough to reach the car's port. Imagine if twenty five

407
00:22:00,880 --> 00:22:03,679
Speaker 1: percent of the nation's gas stations weren't working and drivers

408
00:22:03,720 --> 00:22:05,480
Speaker 1: didn't know until they got out of the car whether

409
00:22:05,520 --> 00:22:08,480
Speaker 1: they'd be able to fill up. So there's hardly any

410
00:22:08,560 --> 00:22:10,639
Speaker 1: charging stations the one they have. The ones they have,

411
00:22:10,720 --> 00:22:16,639
Speaker 1: which is mostly in the Bay Area, three quarters of them,

412
00:22:16,840 --> 00:22:24,080
Speaker 1: only three quarters, less than three quarters work. God, I

413
00:22:24,119 --> 00:22:27,919
Speaker 1: mean this is bad from beginning to end. Well, this

414
00:22:28,080 --> 00:22:31,879
Speaker 1: is Biden today in Japan. I don't know if we

415
00:22:31,920 --> 00:22:34,479
Speaker 1: have the question here too, but it's about the gas prices.

416
00:22:34,520 --> 00:22:36,840
Speaker 1: You know, he's in Japan on this Asian trip to

417
00:22:36,920 --> 00:22:39,840
Speaker 1: talk about more international things, but the reporters who follow

418
00:22:39,840 --> 00:22:42,240
Speaker 1: them know what's on the minds of people here. It's inflation,

419
00:22:42,359 --> 00:22:44,600
Speaker 1: especially gas prices. So here we go. And when it

420
00:22:44,680 --> 00:22:49,800
Speaker 1: comes to the gas prices, we're going through an incredible

421
00:22:49,960 --> 00:22:53,720
Speaker 1: transition that is taking place that God willing, when it's over,

422
00:22:53,840 --> 00:22:55,920
Speaker 1: will be stronger and the world will be stronger and

423
00:22:56,040 --> 00:23:00,320
Speaker 1: less relying on fossil fuels when this is over. See

424
00:23:00,320 --> 00:23:03,679
Speaker 1: what Europe is doing relatively importation of Russian gas. You

425
00:23:03,720 --> 00:23:07,000
Speaker 1: see anyway, I won't go through it all, but and

426
00:23:07,160 --> 00:23:08,960
Speaker 1: what I've been able to do to keep it from

427
00:23:08,960 --> 00:23:12,480
Speaker 1: getting even worse. And it's bad. The price of gas

428
00:23:13,040 --> 00:23:15,560
Speaker 1: at the pump is something that I told you heard

429
00:23:15,560 --> 00:23:18,040
Speaker 1: me say before, would be a matter of great discussion

430
00:23:18,040 --> 00:23:20,080
Speaker 1: at my kitchen table when I was kid growing up.

431
00:23:20,400 --> 00:23:24,680
Speaker 1: It's affecting a lot of families. But we have released

432
00:23:24,720 --> 00:23:29,000
Speaker 1: over two hundred and I think fifty seven million barrels

433
00:23:29,000 --> 00:23:31,240
Speaker 1: of oil. I should say us and the rest of

434
00:23:31,280 --> 00:23:34,280
Speaker 1: the world. We're convinced to get involved. It's help, but

435
00:23:34,320 --> 00:23:38,400
Speaker 1: it's not been enough. He's barely alive. Wall Street Journal

436
00:23:38,400 --> 00:23:41,159
Speaker 1: says electric cars are still, on average thirty five percent

437
00:23:41,240 --> 00:23:44,800
Speaker 1: more expensive than gas powered cars, and the price disparity

438
00:23:44,880 --> 00:23:48,320
Speaker 1: is likely to increase as the band for critical minerals grows.

439
00:23:48,840 --> 00:23:51,040
Speaker 1: That's going to be the tough part that article we

440
00:23:51,119 --> 00:23:53,280
Speaker 1: read last week, which by the way, is in Forbes

441
00:23:53,600 --> 00:23:57,000
Speaker 1: dot Com, said that it's gonna if everybody was to

442
00:23:57,119 --> 00:23:59,560
Speaker 1: drive an electric car, we don't have the minerals on

443
00:23:59,600 --> 00:24:02,959
Speaker 1: earth is to support that. You need minerals. You need

444
00:24:03,000 --> 00:24:07,119
Speaker 1: minerals like cobalt, nickel, copper, lithium. Just last week, the

445
00:24:07,200 --> 00:24:10,840
Speaker 1: government canceled the leases of Twin Metals Minnesota. That's a

446
00:24:10,880 --> 00:24:15,640
Speaker 1: company to mine for cobalt, nickel, and copper. Currently there's

447
00:24:15,640 --> 00:24:19,080
Speaker 1: only one operating mine in the whole United States that

448
00:24:19,160 --> 00:24:22,840
Speaker 1: produces nickel one Even though the country has large reserves

449
00:24:22,840 --> 00:24:27,280
Speaker 1: of lithium, there is only one big operating lithium mining project,

450
00:24:27,560 --> 00:24:33,040
Speaker 1: which is the Silver Peak Mine in Nevada. So what

451
00:24:33,240 --> 00:24:35,080
Speaker 1: you have here, first of all, as a product that's

452
00:24:35,160 --> 00:24:40,040
Speaker 1: far more expensive than gas powered cars, far less range.

453
00:24:40,880 --> 00:24:45,120
Speaker 1: It uses an enormous amount of electricity, It uses an

454
00:24:45,200 --> 00:24:48,280
Speaker 1: enormous amount of minerals. The minerals are not available in

455
00:24:48,320 --> 00:24:51,439
Speaker 1: this country. China has cornered the market on several and

456
00:24:51,520 --> 00:24:55,040
Speaker 1: that's going to go well, right if Chinese is in

457
00:24:55,160 --> 00:24:58,280
Speaker 1: charge of whether we have enough minerals to build and

458
00:24:58,680 --> 00:25:05,120
Speaker 1: power or the electric vehicles they're trying automakers are trying

459
00:25:05,119 --> 00:25:08,040
Speaker 1: to get a bill through Congress that would provide twelve thousand,

460
00:25:08,080 --> 00:25:12,400
Speaker 1: five hundred dollars in tax credits for electric cars made

461
00:25:12,400 --> 00:25:15,320
Speaker 1: at Union auto plants in the US. So that's what

462
00:25:15,359 --> 00:25:18,159
Speaker 1: they need. They need the government to pay everybody twelve thousand,

463
00:25:18,280 --> 00:25:22,560
Speaker 1: five hundred dollars in order to come closer to affording

464
00:25:22,680 --> 00:25:29,240
Speaker 1: these cars. Well, that's this whole, This whole ideas just crackers.

465
00:25:29,600 --> 00:25:33,520
Speaker 1: It gets nuts. There's a story from a few days ago.

466
00:25:34,200 --> 00:25:37,040
Speaker 1: Tesla is asking its owner it's to limit charging during

467
00:25:37,119 --> 00:25:44,879
Speaker 1: Texas heat wave. Yeah, it's going to happen in California too. Yeah.

468
00:25:44,920 --> 00:25:47,560
Speaker 1: The Electric Reliability Council of Texas announced last week that

469
00:25:47,640 --> 00:25:51,000
Speaker 1: six of its power generation facilities went offline following a

470
00:25:51,080 --> 00:25:54,720
Speaker 1: high demand for power amid a heat wave during the

471
00:25:54,720 --> 00:25:57,359
Speaker 1: out as. These six stations would produce enough electricity powers

472
00:25:57,400 --> 00:26:00,480
Speaker 1: some more than half a million homes. And by the way,

473
00:26:00,560 --> 00:26:03,359
Speaker 1: Tesla's now headquartered in Texas. By the way, at least

474
00:26:03,400 --> 00:26:06,119
Speaker 1: we know now he's admitted it. They did this on

475
00:26:06,200 --> 00:26:09,400
Speaker 1: purpose to force us into electric cars. He's no longer

476
00:26:09,440 --> 00:26:11,960
Speaker 1: blaming Putin, He's no longer blaming the oil companies. He

477
00:26:12,040 --> 00:26:13,960
Speaker 1: pretty much stuck his hand up and said, yeah, I

478
00:26:13,960 --> 00:26:16,119
Speaker 1: did this. I did this, and here is by reason.

479
00:26:16,560 --> 00:26:18,400
Speaker 1: So this is what we have. This is the guy

480
00:26:18,400 --> 00:26:22,880
Speaker 1: we have running things, old, senile, foolish, and he's costing

481
00:26:22,920 --> 00:26:25,760
Speaker 1: you six to fifty a gallon. Here in California, Joe

482
00:26:26,720 --> 00:26:30,960
Speaker 1: heard this morning that only uh it's not was disappointing.

483
00:26:31,000 --> 00:26:32,520
Speaker 1: There was a low percentage I think it was in

484
00:26:32,560 --> 00:26:35,399
Speaker 1: the thirties of people that are thinking or planning on

485
00:26:35,400 --> 00:26:38,080
Speaker 1: getting electric car compared to like Europe or the number

486
00:26:38,080 --> 00:26:41,600
Speaker 1: it was like sevent They were disappointed. Americans are not

487
00:26:41,640 --> 00:26:43,760
Speaker 1: turned on by it. No again again, if I had

488
00:26:43,760 --> 00:26:45,960
Speaker 1: an electric car right here and it was Lolan juice.

489
00:26:46,000 --> 00:26:49,440
Speaker 1: Here in Burbank, where am I going to go? There's

490
00:26:49,480 --> 00:26:52,680
Speaker 1: a charger in the garage there the first floor. Where

491
00:26:52,800 --> 00:26:54,679
Speaker 1: is a charger? Oh? Yeah, there is. It's just to

492
00:26:54,720 --> 00:26:57,159
Speaker 1: the right where you come in. I never noticed it.

493
00:26:57,240 --> 00:26:58,919
Speaker 1: And I don't know. I don't have to pay or not.

494
00:26:58,920 --> 00:27:01,440
Speaker 1: I think you have to pay now? And how many

495
00:27:01,440 --> 00:27:04,000
Speaker 1: hours does it take the charge of car? Well, you're

496
00:27:04,000 --> 00:27:05,959
Speaker 1: there at the station for four or five hours, right,

497
00:27:06,000 --> 00:27:09,800
Speaker 1: so get you something to get home? Right? All right?

498
00:27:09,840 --> 00:27:14,719
Speaker 1: We have what sounds like a good life. Johnny cant cafi.

499
00:27:14,880 --> 00:27:17,240
Speaker 1: All right, coming up after the news at three o'clock,

500
00:27:17,280 --> 00:27:19,640
Speaker 1: will be talking to Alex Stone, ABC News for KFI.

501
00:27:19,760 --> 00:27:22,760
Speaker 1: Today would have been the day that the Biden illustration

502
00:27:22,800 --> 00:27:25,320
Speaker 1: would have ended Title forty two. That's the public Health

503
00:27:25,400 --> 00:27:28,960
Speaker 1: order that was enacted when Trump was president to turn

504
00:27:29,040 --> 00:27:32,040
Speaker 1: migrants immediately back at the border because of COVID nineteen

505
00:27:32,520 --> 00:27:35,159
Speaker 1: May twenty thirds a day they picked. They can't do

506
00:27:35,200 --> 00:27:37,240
Speaker 1: that because the judge won't let him. A federal judge

507
00:27:37,280 --> 00:27:39,840
Speaker 1: is blocking that move. Department of Justice is appealing, but

508
00:27:40,600 --> 00:27:43,040
Speaker 1: nothing has been settled there yet, so they cannot end

509
00:27:43,320 --> 00:27:46,360
Speaker 1: Title forty two. And Alex was in Arizona. He got

510
00:27:46,359 --> 00:27:49,520
Speaker 1: a real close look at the border patrol people deal with.

511
00:27:50,119 --> 00:27:52,719
Speaker 1: He's got a pretty good in depth report coming our

512
00:27:52,760 --> 00:27:57,320
Speaker 1: way after the news at three o'clock. Hey, somebody that

513
00:27:57,359 --> 00:27:59,159
Speaker 1: we had on the show it was running for La

514
00:27:59,240 --> 00:28:02,080
Speaker 1: Mayor has dropped out of the race. I don't know

515
00:28:02,119 --> 00:28:06,480
Speaker 1: who ramt Varma remember him? Oh yes, he was seen

516
00:28:06,520 --> 00:28:09,920
Speaker 1: a few billboards that he's put up, but he dropped out.

517
00:28:09,920 --> 00:28:16,480
Speaker 1: He's endorsing Rick Caruso too. So uh, these these uh,

518
00:28:16,480 --> 00:28:20,040
Speaker 1: these long shots, um, they all have the same problem.

519
00:28:20,080 --> 00:28:23,440
Speaker 1: Nobody knows who they are, yes, and and it's it's

520
00:28:23,680 --> 00:28:27,880
Speaker 1: the same story over and over again. I somebody seriously

521
00:28:27,880 --> 00:28:30,040
Speaker 1: wants to get into politics, You've got to spend a

522
00:28:30,040 --> 00:28:33,400
Speaker 1: few years somehow getting the world to know your name,

523
00:28:33,800 --> 00:28:37,199
Speaker 1: to identify your name, your face, and encourage people to

524
00:28:37,200 --> 00:28:39,680
Speaker 1: step up and run for office. No, not like that.

525
00:28:39,720 --> 00:28:42,840
Speaker 1: You said people have to fight back. No, you can't

526
00:28:42,840 --> 00:28:44,800
Speaker 1: do it stupidly. You can't just run into a brick.

527
00:28:44,920 --> 00:28:46,880
Speaker 1: How are we going to topple this power structure? They

528
00:28:46,920 --> 00:28:49,280
Speaker 1: have all the names you have. You have to do

529
00:28:49,320 --> 00:28:52,720
Speaker 1: something to make yourself a name. Yeah, well, well Trump

530
00:28:52,760 --> 00:28:54,800
Speaker 1: did it. I mean, you know, Caruso would be careful

531
00:28:54,840 --> 00:28:57,040
Speaker 1: because there's a few of these running for La City Council.

532
00:28:57,080 --> 00:28:59,920
Speaker 1: They might win and they're like wow, they're they're communists.

533
00:29:00,120 --> 00:29:03,800
Speaker 1: They're like, well, socialist democrats, normal, normal people can get

534
00:29:03,800 --> 00:29:06,400
Speaker 1: a following. But you have to spend a lot of time.

535
00:29:06,440 --> 00:29:09,960
Speaker 1: You have to figure out how to raise money. The campaign.

536
00:29:10,000 --> 00:29:14,240
Speaker 1: Donors aren't going to throw money at random Joe just

537
00:29:14,280 --> 00:29:17,240
Speaker 1: because it's it's really cool that an average person wants

538
00:29:17,280 --> 00:29:20,360
Speaker 1: to win. You have to win. It's like being an athlete.

539
00:29:20,560 --> 00:29:22,680
Speaker 1: You know, you have to go through years worth of training.

540
00:29:23,320 --> 00:29:25,480
Speaker 1: You have to You have to learn how to hit

541
00:29:25,480 --> 00:29:28,080
Speaker 1: a baseball or the tennis ball or throw a football.

542
00:29:28,320 --> 00:29:30,680
Speaker 1: You can't just walk in off the street because it's cool.

543
00:29:31,000 --> 00:29:33,760
Speaker 1: Same thing in politics, the same thing to get on

544
00:29:33,840 --> 00:29:38,000
Speaker 1: radio and television is and you've seen when sometimes politicians

545
00:29:38,040 --> 00:29:40,600
Speaker 1: get talk shows, they're terrible because they have no training

546
00:29:40,600 --> 00:29:43,480
Speaker 1: for it. And also talk show hosts don't do well

547
00:29:43,600 --> 00:29:46,640
Speaker 1: usually running as a politician because they don't have the

548
00:29:46,680 --> 00:29:51,240
Speaker 1: training for it. I mean, that's that's the lesson that

549
00:29:51,360 --> 00:29:53,600
Speaker 1: I want these guys to win. But the rest of

550
00:29:53,640 --> 00:29:56,000
Speaker 1: the public is not paying attention. I'm paying attention. You're

551
00:29:56,000 --> 00:29:58,960
Speaker 1: paying attention, but everybody else is not. And that's that's

552
00:29:59,000 --> 00:30:01,520
Speaker 1: the issue. It's like, you got to have a plan.

553
00:30:01,720 --> 00:30:04,280
Speaker 1: I don't know, maybe five years in advance. Yeah, I

554
00:30:04,480 --> 00:30:06,680
Speaker 1: don't think a lot of people he actually knew Rick Caruso,

555
00:30:06,680 --> 00:30:10,280
Speaker 1: but he had enough money. He had the money and

556
00:30:10,440 --> 00:30:14,160
Speaker 1: he's accomplished stuff, which you immediately people hear about the grove,

557
00:30:14,200 --> 00:30:15,920
Speaker 1: they're like, oh, yeah, that's the guy behind the grove.

558
00:30:15,920 --> 00:30:17,880
Speaker 1: All right, that's something I know. I've been there. Every

559
00:30:18,480 --> 00:30:25,400
Speaker 1: voter in LA knows the grove. Clarence Avant, whose wife,

560
00:30:25,600 --> 00:30:29,240
Speaker 1: Jacquelin Devant, was murdered in the home invasion in December

561
00:30:29,240 --> 00:30:32,880
Speaker 1: in Beverly Hills, remember that story. He has come out

562
00:30:32,920 --> 00:30:37,880
Speaker 1: today or over the weekend and endorsed Rick Caruso for mayor.

563
00:30:38,640 --> 00:30:41,280
Speaker 1: This is a man that was the subject of a

564
00:30:41,360 --> 00:30:44,080
Speaker 1: documentary he's in the music industry called the Black Godfather,

565
00:30:44,680 --> 00:30:48,280
Speaker 1: and apparently was celebrated in that documentary by people like

566
00:30:48,360 --> 00:30:54,560
Speaker 1: Barack Obama and Quincy Jones. So you gotta believe that

567
00:30:54,640 --> 00:30:58,200
Speaker 1: Another reason he's doing this is that he realizes firsthand, sadly,

568
00:30:58,800 --> 00:31:02,680
Speaker 1: what's happening with crime in the city of la and

569
00:31:02,760 --> 00:31:05,000
Speaker 1: he's decided that he thinks Rick Caruso can make a

570
00:31:05,000 --> 00:31:08,719
Speaker 1: difference because again, you know, just because this is how

571
00:31:08,720 --> 00:31:11,760
Speaker 1: the El Segundo Times covers everything, he's black. He could

572
00:31:11,760 --> 00:31:15,719
Speaker 1: have picked Karen Bass, right because you know she's done

573
00:31:15,760 --> 00:31:18,800
Speaker 1: the first black woman mayor of Los Angeles and wouldn't

574
00:31:18,800 --> 00:31:23,280
Speaker 1: that be something, right, um, But instead he has chosen

575
00:31:23,360 --> 00:31:25,440
Speaker 1: to endorse him. I mean, he's ninety one, so I

576
00:31:25,440 --> 00:31:29,000
Speaker 1: don't think he's campaigning. Maybe he's gonna no, but his

577
00:31:29,240 --> 00:31:32,440
Speaker 1: name is powerful in this because he's part of the

578
00:31:32,560 --> 00:31:38,720
Speaker 1: music Hollywood industry. He's part of a wealthy demographic which

579
00:31:38,840 --> 00:31:43,440
Speaker 1: usually votes very liberal. I mean his demographic of you know,

580
00:31:43,480 --> 00:31:48,040
Speaker 1: wealthy Hollywood type people. Entertainment people have voted for these

581
00:31:48,280 --> 00:31:51,680
Speaker 1: loons now for generations. That's usually when you get any

582
00:31:51,800 --> 00:31:54,760
Speaker 1: entertainment industry. And now and now this, this is what happened.

583
00:31:54,800 --> 00:31:58,240
Speaker 1: Now you've unleashed all these bad people who ought to

584
00:31:58,240 --> 00:32:00,760
Speaker 1: be in jail, and they're out on streets. And where

585
00:32:00,760 --> 00:32:03,000
Speaker 1: are they going. They're going into their rich neighborhoods. They're

586
00:32:03,080 --> 00:32:05,680
Speaker 1: killing in the rich neighborhoods. They're robbing and looting in

587
00:32:05,720 --> 00:32:08,840
Speaker 1: the rich neighborhoods. Okay, And that's because of the decisions

588
00:32:08,880 --> 00:32:12,120
Speaker 1: made by the people that this crowd of elitists have

589
00:32:12,280 --> 00:32:17,600
Speaker 1: voted for without exception for decades. And now you hit

590
00:32:17,600 --> 00:32:21,920
Speaker 1: a tipping point in life. You've voted for enough progressive

591
00:32:22,440 --> 00:32:25,800
Speaker 1: whack jobs. They let out enough criminals by the tens

592
00:32:25,800 --> 00:32:28,600
Speaker 1: of thousands. One of them now comes into the house.

593
00:32:29,640 --> 00:32:32,760
Speaker 1: It's really sad, it's awful. Yeah, But what's happened over

594
00:32:32,800 --> 00:32:35,520
Speaker 1: the last eleven years in this state, beginning with the

595
00:32:35,560 --> 00:32:38,640
Speaker 1: first bill ab one O nine, which was a way

596
00:32:38,680 --> 00:32:42,240
Speaker 1: of throwing the prisoners, the state inmates back to the

597
00:32:42,320 --> 00:32:46,040
Speaker 1: local counties and making them responsible for anymore crimes they commit.

598
00:32:46,080 --> 00:32:48,800
Speaker 1: And that was just dude, ten days of flash incarceration.

599
00:32:48,840 --> 00:32:52,160
Speaker 1: That's what started all this. Imagine we roll back time

600
00:32:52,240 --> 00:32:54,720
Speaker 1: about ten years or show, and we say, Okay, in

601
00:32:54,720 --> 00:32:58,800
Speaker 1: the next ten years, we're going to release sixty state

602
00:32:58,840 --> 00:33:02,200
Speaker 1: prisoners fellas many of them violent, right, and we're gonna

603
00:33:02,200 --> 00:33:04,560
Speaker 1: get rid of bail entirely, and we're going to get

604
00:33:04,640 --> 00:33:09,200
Speaker 1: rid of parole violations. You no longer spend more than

605
00:33:09,240 --> 00:33:12,600
Speaker 1: ten days for parole violation, which basically you're getting rid

606
00:33:12,640 --> 00:33:16,440
Speaker 1: of them, right. So there there's no bail, We're no

607
00:33:16,520 --> 00:33:20,560
Speaker 1: long going to prosecute misdemeanors. There's gonna be no jail

608
00:33:20,600 --> 00:33:22,760
Speaker 1: for misdemeanors even if you are prosecuted. What do you
