Let's get Alex on to talk about that, 15 00:00:48,000 --> 00:00:49,400 Speaker 1: and we're also going to talk about all the nine 16 00:00:49,440 --> 00:00:52,800 Speaker 1: to one one fire clips that are now being released. Alex, 17 00:00:53,159 --> 00:00:55,800 Speaker 1: you think Butcher and Sunny they leaned into the capsule 18 00:00:55,840 --> 00:00:59,200 Speaker 1: and went John or you my driver? John? Ye, that's me, 19 00:00:59,320 --> 00:01:03,440 Speaker 1: you're picking me. Yes, it's the greatest service I've ever seen. Yeah, 20 00:01:03,880 --> 00:01:06,320 Speaker 1: it very much is. In Butcher and Sunny, the two 21 00:01:06,360 --> 00:01:08,880 Speaker 1: astronauts Sunny Williams and Butch Wilmore. They had a big 22 00:01:08,920 --> 00:01:11,320 Speaker 1: thanks for Elon Musk the other day, saying that you know, 23 00:01:11,360 --> 00:01:13,680 Speaker 1: he's the one that came up and is getting them 24 00:01:13,760 --> 00:01:15,960 Speaker 1: off of there. They've been up there for nine months 25 00:01:16,080 --> 00:01:17,839 Speaker 1: and they thought it was going to be eight days, 26 00:01:17,880 --> 00:01:20,959 Speaker 1: and they've been talking about no, we love this that 27 00:01:21,080 --> 00:01:23,720 Speaker 1: this is we love going to space. We've been doing 28 00:01:23,760 --> 00:01:26,680 Speaker 1: a lot of experiments up here. One is the underwear 29 00:01:26,720 --> 00:01:30,360 Speaker 1: situation has got to be horrendous. But they've gotten deliveries. 30 00:01:30,400 --> 00:01:33,520 Speaker 1: But no matter. You could be in Hawaii, you could 31 00:01:33,560 --> 00:01:34,920 Speaker 1: be in Bora Boria. You think you're going to be 32 00:01:34,959 --> 00:01:37,479 Speaker 1: there for eight days, and nine months later you're still there. 33 00:01:37,760 --> 00:01:40,240 Speaker 1: You want to go home. Their kids have done things 34 00:01:40,640 --> 00:01:43,760 Speaker 1: that we've gone through. An election they electronically voted from 35 00:01:43,800 --> 00:01:46,559 Speaker 1: up there. They missed the holidays. It's been a long time. 36 00:01:46,600 --> 00:01:49,559 Speaker 1: And this goes back to Boeing Starliner, and you remember 37 00:01:49,600 --> 00:01:51,840 Speaker 1: it went up. It had been delayed for years because 38 00:01:51,840 --> 00:01:53,760 Speaker 1: of problems. Got them up there, and then it had 39 00:01:53,800 --> 00:01:56,880 Speaker 1: problems up there, had to leave them. It came back 40 00:01:56,960 --> 00:02:01,360 Speaker 1: without them. SpaceX then in September sent up a crew 41 00:02:01,800 --> 00:02:04,480 Speaker 1: for a six month mission, but with only two crew 42 00:02:04,520 --> 00:02:07,800 Speaker 1: members instead of four, so there would be two open seats. Today. 43 00:02:08,160 --> 00:02:10,440 Speaker 1: They're taking those two open seats today, and that crew 44 00:02:10,480 --> 00:02:12,640 Speaker 1: that went up on the six month mission, they're done 45 00:02:12,639 --> 00:02:15,320 Speaker 1: with their six months, so they're coming back with them today. 46 00:02:15,360 --> 00:02:18,720 Speaker 1: And about seventeen hours ago, this was the sound of 47 00:02:18,840 --> 00:02:23,000 Speaker 1: the SpaceX Freedom capsule separating from the International Space Station 48 00:02:23,200 --> 00:02:27,080 Speaker 1: and on docking confirmed Freedom is free of its moorings. 49 00:02:27,280 --> 00:02:30,280 Speaker 1: Sonny Williams and Butch Wilmore began their belated trip home. 50 00:02:31,520 --> 00:02:34,280 Speaker 1: So in the next about forty five minutes, we think 51 00:02:34,280 --> 00:02:36,480 Speaker 1: that they're going to become visible in the sky. They're 52 00:02:36,480 --> 00:02:38,840 Speaker 1: going to go through the atmosphere, splashed down off the 53 00:02:38,840 --> 00:02:41,520 Speaker 1: coast of Florida, and asked a little while ago, confirmed 54 00:02:41,520 --> 00:02:43,320 Speaker 1: it's going to be off the coast of Tallahassee. We 55 00:02:43,360 --> 00:02:45,799 Speaker 1: know it's gonna be Florida, but not exactly where. The 56 00:02:46,120 --> 00:02:49,480 Speaker 1: parachutes are going to deploy four minutes before splash down, 57 00:02:49,520 --> 00:02:53,120 Speaker 1: and then they will emerge and go to a rescue 58 00:02:53,120 --> 00:02:56,600 Speaker 1: ship and then eventually to Houston. But they have been 59 00:02:56,639 --> 00:02:59,160 Speaker 1: saying over and over again they were not stranded that 60 00:02:59,280 --> 00:03:02,079 Speaker 1: they could get Now there is the point that there 61 00:03:02,200 --> 00:03:05,000 Speaker 1: was the SpaceX capsule that came up in September. It 62 00:03:04,600 --> 00:03:07,720 Speaker 1: was it was attached there that had there been an emergency, 63 00:03:07,760 --> 00:03:10,320 Speaker 1: they could have gotten back, but they weren't able just 64 00:03:10,400 --> 00:03:12,320 Speaker 1: on their own to come back. And they said this, 65 00:03:12,400 --> 00:03:13,040 Speaker 1: since we've. 66 00:03:12,880 --> 00:03:15,919 Speaker 2: Been here, we've had a way to get home if 67 00:03:15,919 --> 00:03:17,639 Speaker 2: we really needed to in an emergency. 68 00:03:17,680 --> 00:03:20,880 Speaker 1: There's many ways to characterize it. Stranded I don't think 69 00:03:20,960 --> 00:03:23,960 Speaker 1: is one of them, because we're on the space station. Well, yeah, 70 00:03:23,960 --> 00:03:26,239 Speaker 1: they're on there, but they couldn't come home. But NASA 71 00:03:26,280 --> 00:03:30,040 Speaker 1: along was telling us please speak Well, NASA kept telling us, 72 00:03:30,040 --> 00:03:32,680 Speaker 1: don't say they're stranded. They're not stranded. Well, okay, if 73 00:03:32,960 --> 00:03:34,480 Speaker 1: the thing was going to blow up, they could put 74 00:03:34,480 --> 00:03:35,840 Speaker 1: them in the capsule and get them out of there. 75 00:03:36,040 --> 00:03:38,400 Speaker 1: But they did not have the ability to say I 76 00:03:38,480 --> 00:03:41,200 Speaker 1: want to go home and then come back to Earth. 77 00:03:41,240 --> 00:03:44,360 Speaker 1: But after this very long mission there, they're on their 78 00:03:44,400 --> 00:03:50,600 Speaker 1: way home right now. The the female astronaut, Sunny Williams, 79 00:03:51,080 --> 00:03:58,000 Speaker 1: she has looked frighteningly fragile, thin, emaciated. Really well is 80 00:03:58,000 --> 00:04:02,160 Speaker 1: her health okay? Or yeah? She's good. And they exercise 81 00:04:02,280 --> 00:04:05,520 Speaker 1: up there and they're able to get movement, but it's 82 00:04:05,560 --> 00:04:07,520 Speaker 1: nothing like on earth. They've been up there for quite 83 00:04:07,520 --> 00:04:08,840 Speaker 1: a while, and again they thought it was gonna be 84 00:04:08,840 --> 00:04:12,920 Speaker 1: eight days, and now nine months later, they're finally floating 85 00:04:12,960 --> 00:04:15,040 Speaker 1: back down. Right now, all right, let's get on to 86 00:04:15,440 --> 00:04:19,040 Speaker 1: the fires, because now all this audio that we've been 87 00:04:19,080 --> 00:04:21,719 Speaker 1: hearing on the news in the last couple of hours, 88 00:04:21,760 --> 00:04:25,599 Speaker 1: which fire is are these audio clips from? And who 89 00:04:25,680 --> 00:04:28,920 Speaker 1: released them today? Yeah? So it's the Eton fire. And 90 00:04:29,040 --> 00:04:33,080 Speaker 1: getting nine one one calls in California is unusual because, 91 00:04:33,160 --> 00:04:35,880 Speaker 1: unlike most states, most police agencies and a lot of 92 00:04:35,920 --> 00:04:39,400 Speaker 1: fire agencies see nine one one calls as being confidential, 93 00:04:39,440 --> 00:04:44,200 Speaker 1: along with police reports and mugshots increasingly. But most other states, 94 00:04:44,240 --> 00:04:46,200 Speaker 1: you go to Arizona and Nevada and everywhere else, we'll 95 00:04:46,240 --> 00:04:48,080 Speaker 1: give it all to you, and you get the police 96 00:04:48,120 --> 00:04:50,560 Speaker 1: report the day after Remember in Gene Hackman in New Mexico, 97 00:04:50,680 --> 00:04:53,600 Speaker 1: that afternoon we had the police report and we got 98 00:04:54,160 --> 00:04:57,240 Speaker 1: calls out of that, And so it's typical in most 99 00:04:57,240 --> 00:05:00,840 Speaker 1: states that you get these. California not so much. Sierra 100 00:05:00,960 --> 00:05:04,200 Speaker 1: Madre police today gave us a bunch of nine one 101 00:05:04,240 --> 00:05:07,920 Speaker 1: one calls. They still apparently release them, whereas LAPD does not, 102 00:05:08,040 --> 00:05:10,640 Speaker 1: and the Sheriff's Department does not, but we're hearing the 103 00:05:10,760 --> 00:05:14,160 Speaker 1: initial moments. And as things were ramping up on the 104 00:05:14,160 --> 00:05:17,599 Speaker 1: the Eton fire, people started calling in saying, hey, I 105 00:05:17,760 --> 00:05:20,440 Speaker 1: see something and it looks like there's a fire. There's 106 00:05:20,480 --> 00:05:26,719 Speaker 1: an extremely large fire to the northwest. Now, dispatchers that 107 00:05:26,800 --> 00:05:29,400 Speaker 1: the call takers say, well, that's in Pasadena. You don't 108 00:05:29,440 --> 00:05:32,920 Speaker 1: need to worry about that, and the callers increasingly call 109 00:05:33,000 --> 00:05:36,200 Speaker 1: in and say, now, homes are on fire. It's not 110 00:05:36,360 --> 00:05:39,760 Speaker 1: only in Pasadena, it's in Sierra Madre, and that they're 111 00:05:39,800 --> 00:05:40,960 Speaker 1: seeing homes that are burning. 112 00:05:41,480 --> 00:05:45,599 Speaker 3: Hi, there's homes on fire on M Stop and rant. 113 00:05:45,960 --> 00:05:48,120 Speaker 4: There's a fire truck out here. 114 00:05:48,400 --> 00:05:51,000 Speaker 1: But one house is on fire. 115 00:05:51,839 --> 00:05:54,320 Speaker 5: Yees, house is on fire on Mtop. 116 00:05:54,960 --> 00:05:58,480 Speaker 1: And dispatchers begin to realize that there is now fire 117 00:05:58,520 --> 00:06:02,200 Speaker 1: in the Sierra Madre and into Altadena and into Pasadena. 118 00:06:02,520 --> 00:06:05,640 Speaker 1: And then the callers begin to get angry because there 119 00:06:05,640 --> 00:06:09,400 Speaker 1: are no firefighters in those areas and homes are burning, there's. 120 00:06:09,200 --> 00:06:10,840 Speaker 3: Houses on fire, there's no. 121 00:06:12,240 --> 00:06:13,159 Speaker 1: Anybody here. 122 00:06:13,320 --> 00:06:14,360 Speaker 6: What is the address man? 123 00:06:14,640 --> 00:06:18,839 Speaker 1: Fourteen seventy fourteenth seventy, And so there were a number 124 00:06:18,839 --> 00:06:20,760 Speaker 1: of people who were calling in saying, look, you keep 125 00:06:20,800 --> 00:06:22,640 Speaker 1: telling me, I keep calling you and you keep telling 126 00:06:22,640 --> 00:06:25,560 Speaker 1: me we'll send somebody out there, and nobody is showing up. 127 00:06:25,640 --> 00:06:27,520 Speaker 1: So this is it's the first time we've heard any 128 00:06:27,600 --> 00:06:30,240 Speaker 1: nine one one calls out of any of the fires 129 00:06:30,360 --> 00:06:33,240 Speaker 1: from whether it be Palisades are now Sierra Madre and 130 00:06:33,240 --> 00:06:36,560 Speaker 1: Altadena in Pasadena. But that from the initial moments of 131 00:06:36,600 --> 00:06:39,360 Speaker 1: hey there's a glow, something's not right to people saying 132 00:06:39,480 --> 00:06:42,320 Speaker 1: in how quickly it grew in the wind of get 133 00:06:42,360 --> 00:06:45,360 Speaker 1: out here because homes are burning. Do you know if 134 00:06:45,400 --> 00:06:48,400 Speaker 1: that's a state law that keeps the nine one one 135 00:06:48,400 --> 00:06:51,440 Speaker 1: calls from being released, or it's that the local authorities 136 00:06:51,480 --> 00:06:54,280 Speaker 1: have the option of either releasing it or not. It's 137 00:06:54,320 --> 00:06:56,800 Speaker 1: a couple of things. So with police reports, it is 138 00:06:56,839 --> 00:06:59,360 Speaker 1: a state law, they're seen as confidential. You know, people 139 00:06:59,360 --> 00:07:01,240 Speaker 1: who aren't from Cali Fornia. Typically we'll say, well, just 140 00:07:01,279 --> 00:07:03,800 Speaker 1: get the police report. We have to normally get it 141 00:07:03,839 --> 00:07:06,159 Speaker 1: from an attorney involved because they can get it, but 142 00:07:06,240 --> 00:07:09,359 Speaker 1: we cannot get it. This is st to protect the criminals. 143 00:07:09,720 --> 00:07:12,200 Speaker 1: It's to protect those involved in the in the case. 144 00:07:12,240 --> 00:07:14,320 Speaker 1: So if you ask the LAPD or the Sheriff's department, 145 00:07:14,320 --> 00:07:17,760 Speaker 1: they'll immediately say, on any case, no, because that's protected. 146 00:07:18,440 --> 00:07:23,720 Speaker 1: Most agencies in southern California especially, have policies against releasing 147 00:07:23,800 --> 00:07:25,560 Speaker 1: nine to one one calls because they say that that 148 00:07:25,680 --> 00:07:28,160 Speaker 1: is a confidential part of the case and not public record. 149 00:07:28,480 --> 00:07:31,040 Speaker 1: Other areas of the country see it legally as public record. 150 00:07:31,520 --> 00:07:36,320 Speaker 1: Mug shots have increasingly in more liberal areas of the country, 151 00:07:37,200 --> 00:07:42,200 Speaker 1: they don't release them for different quality reasons. I know 152 00:07:42,320 --> 00:07:46,560 Speaker 1: why is typically what the argument was for not releasing them, 153 00:07:47,320 --> 00:07:49,600 Speaker 1: and so that that is really caught on with a 154 00:07:49,640 --> 00:07:51,800 Speaker 1: lot of departments. But you go to Arizona, you go 155 00:07:51,840 --> 00:07:55,640 Speaker 1: to to New Mexico, you go to typically more conservative states, 156 00:07:55,720 --> 00:08:00,280 Speaker 1: and mugshots are always released or booking photos, and are 157 00:08:00,320 --> 00:08:02,120 Speaker 1: the police reports in the nine on one calls. But 158 00:08:02,360 --> 00:08:06,120 Speaker 1: for as open as California is, and you know, in 159 00:08:06,160 --> 00:08:09,800 Speaker 1: the sense of media friendliness and all of that, where 160 00:08:09,840 --> 00:08:12,240 Speaker 1: you would think a more conservative state might be tighter 161 00:08:12,240 --> 00:08:14,119 Speaker 1: with the information when it's releasing it to the media, 162 00:08:14,280 --> 00:08:17,880 Speaker 1: it goes opposite in all of this, and California, with 163 00:08:18,080 --> 00:08:21,080 Speaker 1: their open records laws and whatnot, are very closed when 164 00:08:21,080 --> 00:08:24,160 Speaker 1: it comes to body camera body cameras. Typically only if 165 00:08:24,160 --> 00:08:26,560 Speaker 1: there's an officer involves shooting do they have to release it. 166 00:08:26,600 --> 00:08:29,480 Speaker 1: Otherwise they won't if you request it, whereas in everywhere 167 00:08:29,480 --> 00:08:31,600 Speaker 1: else they request all of it or they release. Is 168 00:08:31,600 --> 00:08:34,000 Speaker 1: there an absolute mandate to keep the Palisades nine one 169 00:08:34,000 --> 00:08:36,960 Speaker 1: one calls a secret in La City? There's not a 170 00:08:37,000 --> 00:08:39,000 Speaker 1: mandate in the sense of just on that that the 171 00:08:40,000 --> 00:08:42,480 Speaker 1: city does not release nine on one calls Every now 172 00:08:42,520 --> 00:08:44,400 Speaker 1: and then we'll get one from the LAFD that they 173 00:08:44,440 --> 00:08:48,240 Speaker 1: heavily redact because they have a little different policy than LAPD. 174 00:08:48,600 --> 00:08:52,199 Speaker 1: But LAPD, except for an extraordinary circumstances in the end 175 00:08:52,240 --> 00:08:55,959 Speaker 1: in officer involves shootings where they put out their videos 176 00:08:56,000 --> 00:08:57,679 Speaker 1: with all the body camera and they usually put the 177 00:08:57,720 --> 00:09:00,680 Speaker 1: nine one one call in there. Typically we don't get them, 178 00:09:00,679 --> 00:09:03,000 Speaker 1: and we have no legal way to get them because 179 00:09:03,040 --> 00:09:06,320 Speaker 1: of California law. All right, thanks very much, Yeah, you 180 00:09:06,360 --> 00:09:11,240 Speaker 1: gotta pink that stone, ABC News. I think because the uh, 181 00:09:11,400 --> 00:09:14,720 Speaker 1: let's look at the Palisades, that was such a disastrous 182 00:09:14,760 --> 00:09:21,440 Speaker 1: response and it burned thousands of homes and twelve people died, 183 00:09:22,280 --> 00:09:24,959 Speaker 1: they absolutely should release all the nine to one one 184 00:09:25,000 --> 00:09:29,000 Speaker 1: calls so we can hear the screaming and the frustration 185 00:09:29,280 --> 00:09:32,720 Speaker 1: of the residents who are not like it. In that 186 00:09:32,840 --> 00:09:37,080 Speaker 1: Sierra Madre clip, were calling repeatedly and not seeing any 187 00:09:37,120 --> 00:09:42,200 Speaker 1: fire trucks show up. And I do think that not 188 00:09:42,320 --> 00:09:47,400 Speaker 1: enough attention has been put on Altadena and the surrounding areas, 189 00:09:48,600 --> 00:09:51,760 Speaker 1: and that the La County supervisors have not been asked 190 00:09:51,800 --> 00:09:54,840 Speaker 1: to explain themselves, and the La County Fire chief has 191 00:09:55,360 --> 00:09:58,800 Speaker 1: been asked to explain himself. They had even more homes 192 00:09:58,880 --> 00:10:05,560 Speaker 1: burned and even more deaths, and we know at least 193 00:10:05,559 --> 00:10:08,880 Speaker 1: that it's most likely so Cal Edison was involved in 194 00:10:08,880 --> 00:10:13,160 Speaker 1: igniting the fire. We still don't have an explanation what 195 00:10:13,240 --> 00:10:17,120 Speaker 1: ignited the Palisades fire, and nobody wants to talk. They 196 00:10:17,160 --> 00:10:19,760 Speaker 1: should release all the nine one one calls. They do 197 00:10:19,880 --> 00:10:24,240 Speaker 1: that in California with holding information, whether it's police reports, 198 00:10:24,360 --> 00:10:29,120 Speaker 1: nine one one calls to protect criminals because they don't 199 00:10:29,120 --> 00:10:33,040 Speaker 1: want the criminal stigmatized. They don't want stereotypes perpetrated. That's 200 00:10:33,080 --> 00:10:38,400 Speaker 1: why it's all social justice, woke nonsense. But I think 201 00:10:39,120 --> 00:10:43,640 Speaker 1: I think everybody's got a huge interest in hearing about 202 00:10:44,000 --> 00:10:47,840 Speaker 1: how the response was sounded in real time according to 203 00:10:47,840 --> 00:10:51,280 Speaker 1: the people who were reporting the fire. I mean, if that, 204 00:10:52,880 --> 00:10:57,120 Speaker 1: if that fire isn't a big enough reason to suspend 205 00:10:57,120 --> 00:11:01,880 Speaker 1: whatever policies they have to create an exception, but you 206 00:11:01,920 --> 00:11:05,960 Speaker 1: know everybody, everybody in government benefits by continued silence. If 207 00:11:06,000 --> 00:11:08,640 Speaker 1: it's another day nobody talks about it, it's another day 208 00:11:08,640 --> 00:11:09,400 Speaker 1: they get away with it. 209 00:11:10,240 --> 00:11:14,560 Speaker 7: You're listening to John Cobelt on demand from KFI AM 210 00:11:14,600 --> 00:11:15,120 Speaker 7: six forty. 211 00:11:16,520 --> 00:11:18,240 Speaker 1: We're on from one to four every day, and then 212 00:11:18,280 --> 00:11:20,880 Speaker 1: after four o'clock John Cobelt Show on demand on the 213 00:11:20,920 --> 00:11:25,839 Speaker 1: iHeart app. You can listen to what you missed. You 214 00:11:26,240 --> 00:11:32,480 Speaker 1: may wonder why all the politicians in California do the 215 00:11:32,520 --> 00:11:36,680 Speaker 1: things they do when clearly it's a stupid policy, it's 216 00:11:36,720 --> 00:11:40,880 Speaker 1: a corrupt policy, it's the wrong policy, and you may say, 217 00:11:41,160 --> 00:11:45,280 Speaker 1: what are they thinking. They can't be voted out of 218 00:11:45,360 --> 00:11:49,240 Speaker 1: office in California because it's a one party state. There 219 00:11:49,280 --> 00:11:53,480 Speaker 1: are rarely even independents, let alone Republicans challenging these people, 220 00:11:53,800 --> 00:11:57,880 Speaker 1: and so after a while, it doesn't matter. They'll take 221 00:11:58,000 --> 00:12:01,000 Speaker 1: money in exchange for their votes or policy sees, because 222 00:12:01,080 --> 00:12:05,319 Speaker 1: who's going to stop them from taking the money. They 223 00:12:05,520 --> 00:12:07,800 Speaker 1: are a lot of these people are not very bright. 224 00:12:07,920 --> 00:12:10,360 Speaker 1: If you listen to that little clip we played a 225 00:12:10,440 --> 00:12:14,080 Speaker 1: tim of Gavin Newsom and Tim Waltz, the Minnesota governor, 226 00:12:14,080 --> 00:12:17,920 Speaker 1: It's like Holy mackerel. You know, yeah, I mean that's 227 00:12:18,080 --> 00:12:21,640 Speaker 1: like listening to farm animals. I mean there's nothing going 228 00:12:21,679 --> 00:12:25,600 Speaker 1: on there. And then a lot of stuff they believe 229 00:12:25,600 --> 00:12:29,240 Speaker 1: in is wrong. But eh, it's not their money, not 230 00:12:29,320 --> 00:12:30,800 Speaker 1: their money, What does it matter. They're not going to 231 00:12:30,800 --> 00:12:33,360 Speaker 1: be voted out of office, not here, not in California. 232 00:12:33,920 --> 00:12:37,760 Speaker 1: So you may think, after all the vicious backlash against 233 00:12:37,800 --> 00:12:44,679 Speaker 1: Karen Bass for flying off to Africa when she knew 234 00:12:44,720 --> 00:12:48,000 Speaker 1: for two days that a horrendous windstorm was coming and 235 00:12:48,080 --> 00:12:52,720 Speaker 1: the fire danger was extreme, she goes to Africa anyway 236 00:12:52,760 --> 00:12:55,000 Speaker 1: because she knows whatever happens, she's not going to lose 237 00:12:55,040 --> 00:12:59,040 Speaker 1: her job. He say's what she thinks. And then after 238 00:12:59,120 --> 00:13:02,960 Speaker 1: witnessing the back lash against the criticism against Bass, you 239 00:13:03,000 --> 00:13:07,319 Speaker 1: would think that somebody also involved in this fire story 240 00:13:08,040 --> 00:13:14,160 Speaker 1: would not disappear out of the country when something important 241 00:13:14,200 --> 00:13:17,120 Speaker 1: needed to be attended to here in California, and I'm 242 00:13:17,160 --> 00:13:23,079 Speaker 1: talking about the insurance Commissioner, Ricardo cal fart Lara. Cal 243 00:13:23,200 --> 00:13:30,200 Speaker 1: fart Lara is the insurance commissioner, and there was supposed 244 00:13:30,200 --> 00:13:35,280 Speaker 1: to be an oversight hearing with state lawmakers in Sacramento. 245 00:13:36,760 --> 00:13:42,600 Speaker 1: So the Sacramento legislators actually have an oversight hearing scheduled 246 00:13:43,080 --> 00:13:46,760 Speaker 1: and Ricardo cal Fart Lara was supposed to attend, but 247 00:13:47,080 --> 00:13:51,280 Speaker 1: he went to Bermuda instead. Bermuda in the Caribbean. Have 248 00:13:51,280 --> 00:13:52,160 Speaker 1: you been to Bermuda? 249 00:13:52,520 --> 00:13:54,360 Speaker 4: I have not, that it is on my list. 250 00:13:54,559 --> 00:13:59,000 Speaker 1: That's why it hasn't been invaded or bombed yet or 251 00:13:59,080 --> 00:14:04,400 Speaker 1: destroyed by a hurricane. Ricardo Lara went because there was 252 00:14:04,480 --> 00:14:08,040 Speaker 1: an insurance summit being held in Bermuda. 253 00:14:08,280 --> 00:14:10,680 Speaker 4: Well, of course, who would want to go to the Caribbean. 254 00:14:10,960 --> 00:14:14,720 Speaker 1: And he was speaking at it. It's like bass saying, hey, 255 00:14:14,760 --> 00:14:18,440 Speaker 1: I got invited to a diplomatic reception for the President 256 00:14:18,480 --> 00:14:21,480 Speaker 1: of Ghana. I was asked by the President I had 257 00:14:21,520 --> 00:14:23,840 Speaker 1: to go, and same thing here. He's invited to be 258 00:14:23,880 --> 00:14:29,920 Speaker 1: the keynote speaker at an insurance and reinsurance conference. And 259 00:14:30,000 --> 00:14:36,920 Speaker 1: reinsurance the reinsurance industry are these mega companies that insure 260 00:14:37,240 --> 00:14:43,040 Speaker 1: insurance companies that have taken on too many losses, like 261 00:14:43,080 --> 00:14:48,320 Speaker 1: when you have a situation the Palisades or the Altadena fire, 262 00:14:49,440 --> 00:14:52,880 Speaker 1: and the claims and the losses are so great that 263 00:14:53,400 --> 00:14:58,640 Speaker 1: the normal insurance company could go bankrupt. They've paid premiums 264 00:14:58,640 --> 00:15:04,560 Speaker 1: to a reinsurance company expensive premiums and the reinsurance company 265 00:15:04,600 --> 00:15:08,560 Speaker 1: acts as a backstop. So it turns out forty percent 266 00:15:09,560 --> 00:15:13,840 Speaker 1: of the world's reinsurance companies are based in Bermuda, which 267 00:15:13,880 --> 00:15:16,720 Speaker 1: makes me think there's probably some very loose laws there. 268 00:15:18,320 --> 00:15:22,040 Speaker 1: It's like companies that are incorporated in the Cayman Islands. 269 00:15:22,640 --> 00:15:24,440 Speaker 1: It means you can get away with a lot of 270 00:15:24,480 --> 00:15:27,960 Speaker 1: funny business as you're collecting those billions and reinsurance payments. 271 00:15:29,520 --> 00:15:31,160 Speaker 1: And of course they have to hear from him. And 272 00:15:31,280 --> 00:15:35,280 Speaker 1: apparently a zoom doesn't work in Bermuda, because you would 273 00:15:35,280 --> 00:15:38,160 Speaker 1: think that he could zoom in and they could put 274 00:15:38,240 --> 00:15:40,800 Speaker 1: him on a big screen on a stage right and 275 00:15:40,840 --> 00:15:43,280 Speaker 1: he could get the same message, which would be just 276 00:15:43,320 --> 00:15:47,240 Speaker 1: a lot of cliches and platitudes and nonsense. He just 277 00:15:47,360 --> 00:15:50,360 Speaker 1: had to be in Bermuda. And one thing he didn't 278 00:15:50,400 --> 00:15:57,560 Speaker 1: have to be at was the oversight hearing in Sacramento, Bermuda, Sacramento. 279 00:15:59,240 --> 00:16:07,160 Speaker 1: Tough call there, h Laris said in his speech, and 280 00:16:07,280 --> 00:16:09,960 Speaker 1: this is this is going to be captivating. Just as 281 00:16:10,000 --> 00:16:13,800 Speaker 1: the original concept of insurance was so revolutionary and creative, 282 00:16:14,160 --> 00:16:16,720 Speaker 1: we are once again called to be bold and creative 283 00:16:17,040 --> 00:16:19,440 Speaker 1: at this pivotal moment. In our history, and I hope 284 00:16:19,440 --> 00:16:20,880 Speaker 1: you will join me in that effort. 285 00:16:22,080 --> 00:16:23,680 Speaker 4: Wait, I don't know what that even means. 286 00:16:24,560 --> 00:16:28,680 Speaker 1: It doesn't mean anything. It's just words. They stand up 287 00:16:29,080 --> 00:16:32,400 Speaker 1: and they read words written by someone else, and everybody 288 00:16:32,400 --> 00:16:34,320 Speaker 1: sits in the audience and nods, and then they all 289 00:16:34,360 --> 00:16:39,320 Speaker 1: go out and get drunk. The California Department of Insurance 290 00:16:39,360 --> 00:16:45,760 Speaker 1: has not responded to multiple requests for comment as to 291 00:16:45,800 --> 00:16:48,840 Speaker 1: why Larry didn't show up and do his job. Appearing 292 00:16:48,920 --> 00:16:55,360 Speaker 1: at the Sacramento Oversight Committee hearing, the executive director of 293 00:16:55,480 --> 00:16:58,760 Speaker 1: Consumer Watchdog, one of those activist groups, Carmen Bauber, said 294 00:16:58,800 --> 00:17:02,360 Speaker 1: every Californiaan should under why the insurance Commissioner is in 295 00:17:02,400 --> 00:17:05,879 Speaker 1: the Caribbean instead of dealing with the insurance crisis at home. 296 00:17:09,920 --> 00:17:14,399 Speaker 1: So but Ricardo cal Fart lrat knows that he's not 297 00:17:14,440 --> 00:17:18,000 Speaker 1: going to lose any elections, so he'll go to Bermuda, 298 00:17:18,359 --> 00:17:21,840 Speaker 1: just like Bass will go to Africa. Because you don't matter, 299 00:17:23,400 --> 00:17:28,360 Speaker 1: They don't care. They don't think you're paying attention. You're 300 00:17:28,400 --> 00:17:32,080 Speaker 1: just scrolling on your Instagram, reading your text messages. You 301 00:17:32,119 --> 00:17:36,120 Speaker 1: don't know how they're destroying and bankrupting the state. You'll 302 00:17:36,200 --> 00:17:38,400 Speaker 1: just wake up one day and go, WHOA what happened 303 00:17:39,320 --> 00:17:40,399 Speaker 1: must be Trump's fault. 304 00:17:41,880 --> 00:17:46,200 Speaker 7: You're listening to John Cobels on demand from KFI AM 305 00:17:46,240 --> 00:17:46,760 Speaker 7: six forty. 306 00:17:47,600 --> 00:17:51,080 Speaker 1: Moistline is running again this week eight seven seven Moist 307 00:17:51,119 --> 00:17:54,160 Speaker 1: eighty six.

But if you don't 341 00:19:36,520 --> 00:19:38,280 Speaker 4: eat it all, then you're gonna die. 342 00:19:38,359 --> 00:19:40,919 Speaker 1: Do you see this guy ninety five days? Wait till 343 00:19:40,920 --> 00:19:44,320 Speaker 1: you hear what he was eating. Well, we'll talk about 344 00:19:44,359 --> 00:19:50,240 Speaker 1: it coming up. You're right, this story. I like when 345 00:19:50,240 --> 00:19:51,479 Speaker 1: I exasperate. 346 00:19:50,960 --> 00:19:53,679 Speaker 4: You, well, because it's just some things are just so stupid. 347 00:19:53,840 --> 00:19:57,560 Speaker 1: Yeah, I know, because the way my wife responds. Gee, 348 00:19:57,680 --> 00:20:04,000 Speaker 1: I wonder why exactly the same response. I'm just not 349 00:20:04,119 --> 00:20:08,480 Speaker 1: designed for most people. Yeah, all right, this this story 350 00:20:08,520 --> 00:20:11,440 Speaker 1: is going to infuriate you, and it's not getting a 351 00:20:11,480 --> 00:20:13,760 Speaker 1: lot of coverage. I found this in the West Side Current, 352 00:20:14,119 --> 00:20:19,400 Speaker 1: which is a really good West Side of La news website, 353 00:20:19,960 --> 00:20:22,119 Speaker 1: and they print the stuff that you used to see 354 00:20:22,160 --> 00:20:28,320 Speaker 1: in a major newspaper like the La Times. Uh. It's 355 00:20:28,359 --> 00:20:33,320 Speaker 1: about it's about a violent, mentally ill homeless guy. His 356 00:20:33,440 --> 00:20:38,879 Speaker 1: name is job Uriah Taylor. It's twenty seven years old, 357 00:20:39,320 --> 00:20:44,280 Speaker 1: and about two years ago he was arrested and and this, 358 00:20:44,280 --> 00:20:46,760 Speaker 1: this was a this was a nasty crime. He used 359 00:20:46,760 --> 00:20:51,240 Speaker 1: a pipe to crush the skull of another homeless guy. 360 00:20:51,280 --> 00:20:53,919 Speaker 1: They were sleeping in the same encampment next to the 361 00:20:53,960 --> 00:20:57,400 Speaker 1: Fifth Street Expo station in Santa Monica. By the way, 362 00:20:57,680 --> 00:21:00,960 Speaker 1: that expos station has done nothing for Santa Monica but 363 00:21:01,080 --> 00:21:06,560 Speaker 1: bring hundreds and thousands of homeless people from downtown into 364 00:21:06,640 --> 00:21:10,040 Speaker 1: Santa Monica and just ruining the place. And I know 365 00:21:10,600 --> 00:21:14,960 Speaker 1: there's another subway line that they're building down Wilshire Boulevard. 366 00:21:15,400 --> 00:21:18,919 Speaker 1: In fact, they're closing four blocks in Beverly Hills for 367 00:21:18,960 --> 00:21:23,800 Speaker 1: the next three weeks constructing this thing. And it is 368 00:21:23,880 --> 00:21:28,640 Speaker 1: going to bring more homeless vagrants, mental patients, and drug 369 00:21:28,640 --> 00:21:35,040 Speaker 1: addicts into Beverly Hills and Westwood and beyond. That's all 370 00:21:35,080 --> 00:21:38,480 Speaker 1: these subways are good for, is transferring homeless people to 371 00:21:38,520 --> 00:21:42,240 Speaker 1: the West Side. Maybe that was the idea. Well, anyway, 372 00:21:42,680 --> 00:21:46,880 Speaker 1: job Uriah Taylor. He smashed in the head of another 373 00:21:46,920 --> 00:21:52,680 Speaker 1: guy named Christian Hornberg. And Hornberg is alive, but he's 374 00:21:52,720 --> 00:21:56,760 Speaker 1: confined to a wheelchair and he'll require medical services for 375 00:21:56,800 --> 00:21:59,720 Speaker 1: the rest of his life. So it's a pretty brutal case. 376 00:22:01,840 --> 00:22:04,920 Speaker 1: He was charged with attempted murder, three counts of assault 377 00:22:04,920 --> 00:22:07,919 Speaker 1: with a deadly weapon, one count of assault with a 378 00:22:07,960 --> 00:22:11,680 Speaker 1: deadly weapon with force, and there was a hate crime 379 00:22:11,760 --> 00:22:18,080 Speaker 1: enhancement because Taylor was shouting racial slurs at Hornberg. He 380 00:22:18,200 --> 00:22:20,600 Speaker 1: claimed that he had been sent to Santa Monica by 381 00:22:20,600 --> 00:22:25,359 Speaker 1: his family to target black residents. So he's violent and insane. 382 00:22:26,080 --> 00:22:30,480 Speaker 1: He had a record of mental issues schizo effective and 383 00:22:30,600 --> 00:22:37,600 Speaker 1: bipolar disorder, drug abuse, heroin, methamphetamine. Here's a question, you've 384 00:22:37,600 --> 00:22:42,800 Speaker 1: heard the setup. Do you think they put him in prison? No? Correct, 385 00:22:43,320 --> 00:22:49,280 Speaker 1: they did not put him in prison. There's something called 386 00:22:49,320 --> 00:22:55,600 Speaker 1: the Office of Diversion and re Entry. They provide permanent 387 00:22:55,600 --> 00:23:01,120 Speaker 1: supportive housing for vagrants with mental health disorders who are 388 00:23:02,200 --> 00:23:07,000 Speaker 1: in La County jail. It tries to resolve cases early 389 00:23:07,080 --> 00:23:11,760 Speaker 1: by releasing clients into the support of housing. This is 390 00:23:12,320 --> 00:23:16,760 Speaker 1: after they knew he had this long history of mental 391 00:23:16,760 --> 00:23:20,760 Speaker 1: health issues drug issues, and it was culminated with this 392 00:23:20,920 --> 00:23:24,159 Speaker 1: violent attack. By the way, there were three attacks that 393 00:23:24,480 --> 00:23:28,639 Speaker 1: job Uriah Taylor committed that day three. The worst was 394 00:23:28,680 --> 00:23:31,480 Speaker 1: when he smashed Christian Hornberg's head. 395 00:23:31,280 --> 00:23:36,240 Speaker 4: In Everybody Deserves a Fourth Chance. 396 00:23:37,800 --> 00:23:43,680 Speaker 1: The Office Version and re Entry had twenty seven hundred 397 00:23:44,119 --> 00:23:47,840 Speaker 1: people in the program last year. They lost track of 398 00:23:47,880 --> 00:23:48,960 Speaker 1: over five hundred. 399 00:23:51,320 --> 00:23:53,720 Speaker 4: Oh great, so they're wandering around, Yes. 400 00:23:55,520 --> 00:23:59,639 Speaker 1: Five hundred. Job Uriah Taylor's got loose. We're paying for 401 00:23:59,680 --> 00:24:07,119 Speaker 1: all this. Video evidence recorded from the Santa Monica Police 402 00:24:07,119 --> 00:24:12,400 Speaker 1: Department body cams showed the horrific extent of Hornberg's injuries. 403 00:24:14,960 --> 00:24:18,679 Speaker 1: It turns out that representatives from od R, the Office 404 00:24:18,680 --> 00:24:21,720 Speaker 1: of Diversion and re Entry, had never seen that video. 405 00:24:24,280 --> 00:24:27,280 Speaker 1: There were several attempts to reach out to them, but 406 00:24:28,440 --> 00:24:37,680 Speaker 1: nobody returned. Nobody returned calls or emails. This was the attorney, 407 00:24:37,800 --> 00:24:42,560 Speaker 1: the Deputy DA representing the victim, Christian Hornberg, David Dickman. 408 00:24:43,080 --> 00:24:47,359 Speaker 1: Dickman said that the Office of Diversion and re Entry 409 00:24:47,400 --> 00:24:50,840 Speaker 1: had never seen the videos. Nobody would return his calls 410 00:24:50,880 --> 00:24:52,040 Speaker 1: or emails. 411 00:24:53,880 --> 00:24:56,000 Speaker 4: Even if they saw the videos. You think that that 412 00:24:56,280 --> 00:24:57,560 Speaker 4: we the outcome would be different. 413 00:24:57,640 --> 00:25:00,800 Speaker 1: No, Do you believe how much money we're spending on 414 00:25:00,880 --> 00:25:01,240 Speaker 1: this guy? 415 00:25:01,840 --> 00:25:04,600 Speaker 4: Okay, so we need Elon Musk to come in. Yes, 416 00:25:05,000 --> 00:25:08,040 Speaker 4: and uh so. 417 00:25:08,280 --> 00:25:11,719 Speaker 1: I don't understand. He clearly did the crime, and the 418 00:25:11,760 --> 00:25:15,159 Speaker 1: injuries are on video. There's no question he did it. 419 00:25:15,680 --> 00:25:19,720 Speaker 1: He's clearly insane. Put him in an insane asylum. Put 420 00:25:19,800 --> 00:25:23,800 Speaker 1: him in an insane asylum inside a maximum security prison 421 00:25:24,160 --> 00:25:26,320 Speaker 1: and let him sit there for the rest of his life, 422 00:25:26,920 --> 00:25:30,240 Speaker 1: and give him enough implement so he could kill himself. 423 00:25:31,640 --> 00:25:34,440 Speaker 1: What is this Office of Diversion and re Entry re 424 00:25:34,640 --> 00:25:36,680 Speaker 1: entry to?

You can use it in a non 432 00:26:04,040 --> 00:26:07,280 Speaker 1: sexual sense. Okay, it's probably an outdated usage. 433 00:26:07,359 --> 00:26:07,760 Speaker 4: I think so. 434 00:26:08,640 --> 00:26:12,439 Speaker 1: And also the Peruvian fisherman who but I'm the best diet. 435 00:26:12,840 --> 00:26:15,040 Speaker 1: If you're looking to lose weight, maybe Ozempic's not working 436 00:26:15,040 --> 00:26:18,240 Speaker 1: for you.

Bulleying made a faulty spacecraft and they 456 00:27:31,520 --> 00:27:35,320 Speaker 1: couldn't come home. So Elon Musk sent a SpaceX capsule 457 00:27:36,680 --> 00:27:37,159 Speaker 1: to pick. 458 00:27:37,080 --> 00:27:40,760 Speaker 3: Them up the coast of Tallahassee, Florida here at two fifty. 459 00:27:40,440 --> 00:27:44,439 Speaker 1: Suggest to deployed two more parachutes.
