1 00:00:00,080 --> 00:00:02,560 Speaker 1: There is a breaking news out of Washington every few seconds, 2 00:00:02,600 --> 00:00:06,840 Speaker 1: and usually there is the word judge attached to it. 3 00:00:07,600 --> 00:00:10,719 Speaker 1: Judge to block. Latest is judge to block. The Trump 4 00:00:10,760 --> 00:00:15,120 Speaker 1: administration has planned to put the twenty two hundred US 5 00:00:15,160 --> 00:00:19,920 Speaker 1: AID workers on leave. This is a federal judge ordering 6 00:00:19,960 --> 00:00:23,680 Speaker 1: an immediate halt to key aspects of the effort to 7 00:00:23,720 --> 00:00:30,360 Speaker 1: dismantle that US agency. So the Secretary of State Marco Rubio, 8 00:00:30,920 --> 00:00:33,720 Speaker 1: it's going to place twenty two hundred employees of that 9 00:00:33,840 --> 00:00:36,040 Speaker 1: agency on leave in a matter of hours. But a 10 00:00:36,159 --> 00:00:39,919 Speaker 1: judge has interceded. There's a lot of that going on. 11 00:00:40,440 --> 00:00:42,519 Speaker 1: Now it goes to the court what you can do 12 00:00:42,640 --> 00:00:47,199 Speaker 1: legally and what you can meantime, there is what I 13 00:00:47,240 --> 00:00:52,960 Speaker 1: would consider it almost a troll of what's happening with 14 00:00:53,280 --> 00:00:57,120 Speaker 1: this Time magazine cover. Elon Musk is on the cover 15 00:00:57,200 --> 00:01:01,720 Speaker 1: of Time magazine and he's at the resolute desk, you know, 16 00:01:01,760 --> 00:01:05,960 Speaker 1: where the president should be in the Oval Office. And 17 00:01:07,080 --> 00:01:10,800 Speaker 1: Trump was asked about this as he's there with the 18 00:01:10,959 --> 00:01:17,200 Speaker 1: Japanese Prime Minister. He's asked to react to the cover 19 00:01:17,440 --> 00:01:24,160 Speaker 1: of Time magazine and this picture of Musk behind the 20 00:01:24,200 --> 00:01:27,080 Speaker 1: desk where he is doing all the executive orders signing 21 00:01:28,280 --> 00:01:29,319 Speaker 1: mister President. 22 00:01:29,040 --> 00:01:32,240 Speaker 2: General reaction to the new Time magazine cover that has 23 00:01:32,319 --> 00:01:38,319 Speaker 2: Iuron musk sitting behind your resolute desk, Muskoga. 24 00:01:41,080 --> 00:01:44,560 Speaker 1: That's the best part of it, that that she's translating this, 25 00:01:44,800 --> 00:01:48,040 Speaker 1: you know, so that the Prime Minister from Japan can understand. 26 00:01:49,200 --> 00:01:58,240 Speaker 3: Muskoga, is Time magazine still in business? 27 00:01:58,240 --> 00:01:59,000 Speaker 4: I didn't even know that. 28 00:02:00,320 --> 00:02:02,360 Speaker 1: That's a great answer, man. I'm sorry, that is a 29 00:02:02,400 --> 00:02:06,160 Speaker 1: great answer. In fact, that was my response, Like that 30 00:02:06,320 --> 00:02:10,320 Speaker 1: was relevant maybe twenty years ago when Time magazine was everywhere, 31 00:02:10,440 --> 00:02:13,240 Speaker 1: But now I think it's just like a trolling of 32 00:02:13,280 --> 00:02:16,519 Speaker 1: Trump that you know, could be on x or it 33 00:02:16,560 --> 00:02:20,880 Speaker 1: could be on you know, threads or Blue Sky, anyone 34 00:02:20,960 --> 00:02:24,720 Speaker 1: of the Facebook, whatever you pick your social media platform. Yeah, 35 00:02:25,200 --> 00:02:27,120 Speaker 1: I don't know. I've also heard, Oh, it's the kind 36 00:02:27,160 --> 00:02:29,280 Speaker 1: of thing that would really bother him. Really, I don't 37 00:02:29,280 --> 00:02:31,720 Speaker 1: think so. I don't know. It just seems like I 38 00:02:31,760 --> 00:02:35,040 Speaker 1: think Trump is right sort of like Time magazine not 39 00:02:35,120 --> 00:02:39,120 Speaker 1: as relevant as they once were. On the other hand, 40 00:02:40,639 --> 00:02:45,160 Speaker 1: Trump has talked about himself being named Times Person of 41 00:02:45,200 --> 00:02:50,120 Speaker 1: the Year, and so maybe on some level he does 42 00:02:50,200 --> 00:02:54,360 Speaker 1: care about what Time magazine says. But to me, it 43 00:02:54,440 --> 00:02:58,960 Speaker 1: struck me as a little of what Trump said, which 44 00:02:59,000 --> 00:03:01,720 Speaker 1: is now, I don't know that it's really a super 45 00:03:03,840 --> 00:03:07,919 Speaker 1: well super relevant to anything day to day. What's happening 46 00:03:08,000 --> 00:03:12,679 Speaker 1: in Washington is really very Musk oriented. I mean, he 47 00:03:12,960 --> 00:03:17,400 Speaker 1: is the guy, you know, the idea that he could 48 00:03:17,400 --> 00:03:21,520 Speaker 1: go in there with his efficiency crew and go after 49 00:03:21,639 --> 00:03:25,440 Speaker 1: so many different government agencies. It's an extraordinary thing. Now 50 00:03:26,080 --> 00:03:31,560 Speaker 1: Trump is saying that he wants him meaning Musk and 51 00:03:31,720 --> 00:03:34,800 Speaker 1: his people to look at the Department of Education and 52 00:03:35,760 --> 00:03:40,320 Speaker 1: departments to be content crying long angers trying to get 53 00:03:40,840 --> 00:03:43,840 Speaker 1: the Department of Age earlier day, Well, this is the 54 00:03:44,160 --> 00:03:45,760 Speaker 1: this is the Department of Education. 55 00:03:48,520 --> 00:03:49,960 Speaker 4: What would you call that standoff? 56 00:03:50,000 --> 00:03:52,080 Speaker 1: I guess I mean, a bunch of Democrats go to 57 00:03:52,080 --> 00:03:55,440 Speaker 1: the Department of Education, the Department of Education doors are locked, 58 00:03:56,080 --> 00:03:58,360 Speaker 1: and of course the Department of Education is one of 59 00:03:58,400 --> 00:04:02,920 Speaker 1: these from an agencies that may really face closure. They 60 00:04:02,960 --> 00:04:06,280 Speaker 1: advertised the fact in the run up of the campaign 61 00:04:06,320 --> 00:04:08,640 Speaker 1: to the presidency that they wanted to close the Department 62 00:04:08,640 --> 00:04:11,840 Speaker 1: of Education. So in any case, today, a bunch of 63 00:04:11,920 --> 00:04:17,000 Speaker 1: Democrats go there, Democratic Congress people go and the doors 64 00:04:17,040 --> 00:04:21,400 Speaker 1: are closed, and there is a security guy although he 65 00:04:21,440 --> 00:04:24,040 Speaker 1: has no identification, so they didn't know if it was 66 00:04:24,080 --> 00:04:27,120 Speaker 1: private security, if his government security not allowing them in. 67 00:04:27,760 --> 00:04:31,279 Speaker 1: And so Trump reacts to that standoff. In again the 68 00:04:31,320 --> 00:04:32,880 Speaker 1: press conference with the Japanese. 69 00:04:32,920 --> 00:04:35,320 Speaker 2: I see the same ones. I see Maxine Waters a 70 00:04:35,320 --> 00:04:38,039 Speaker 2: low life. I see you know, all these people. They 71 00:04:38,080 --> 00:04:40,680 Speaker 2: don't love our country. They don't love our country. We 72 00:04:40,720 --> 00:04:44,400 Speaker 2: want great education. So they rank forty countries in education. 73 00:04:45,080 --> 00:04:49,400 Speaker 2: We're ranked dead last, dead last. But the good news 74 00:04:49,480 --> 00:04:51,600 Speaker 2: is we're number one in one category, you know, that 75 00:04:51,800 --> 00:04:55,960 Speaker 2: is cost per pupil. We spend more per pupil than 76 00:04:56,000 --> 00:05:00,560 Speaker 2: on any other country in the world. You look at Norway, Denmark, Sweden, 77 00:05:00,760 --> 00:05:04,800 Speaker 2: various countries all up and down Finland, China does very 78 00:05:04,800 --> 00:05:07,359 Speaker 2: well in education, and then you look at us. We 79 00:05:07,440 --> 00:05:10,440 Speaker 2: spend much more money than they do per pupil or 80 00:05:10,480 --> 00:05:13,200 Speaker 2: any other way. But we spend much more money than 81 00:05:13,240 --> 00:05:17,760 Speaker 2: they do, and yet we're ranked this year Biden's last year, 82 00:05:17,800 --> 00:05:22,360 Speaker 2: congratulations show. We're ranked dead last. So what I want 83 00:05:22,400 --> 00:05:25,240 Speaker 2: to see is education number one. I like choice, we 84 00:05:25,279 --> 00:05:28,680 Speaker 2: all like choice, but beyond choice, long beyond choice. I 85 00:05:28,680 --> 00:05:30,640 Speaker 2: want to see you go back to the states where 86 00:05:31,200 --> 00:05:33,520 Speaker 2: great states that do so well have no debt. 87 00:05:34,120 --> 00:05:35,520 Speaker 3: They're operated brilliantly. 88 00:05:35,560 --> 00:05:38,400 Speaker 2: They'll be as good as Norway or Denmark or Sweden 89 00:05:38,480 --> 00:05:40,760 Speaker 2: or any of the other highly ranked countries. They'll be 90 00:05:41,440 --> 00:05:43,800 Speaker 2: probably have thirty I figured thirty five to thirty eight 91 00:05:43,839 --> 00:05:46,679 Speaker 2: states will be right at the top, and the rest 92 00:05:46,720 --> 00:05:49,360 Speaker 2: will come along. They'll have to come along competitively. And 93 00:05:49,400 --> 00:05:51,440 Speaker 2: by the way, we'll be spending a lot less money 94 00:05:51,680 --> 00:05:52,960 Speaker 2: and we'll have great education. 95 00:05:53,520 --> 00:05:55,839 Speaker 1: Well, there's a lot of federal money that does go 96 00:05:55,960 --> 00:06:03,279 Speaker 1: to underpin public education, but the curriculum, it's really set 97 00:06:03,760 --> 00:06:06,920 Speaker 1: at the state level. As you know, states and municipalities 98 00:06:07,000 --> 00:06:11,520 Speaker 1: they set the curriculum. So when you talk about federal involvement, 99 00:06:11,600 --> 00:06:17,400 Speaker 1: it's involvement with dollars primarily, and the Department of Education 100 00:06:17,640 --> 00:06:21,680 Speaker 1: clearly viewed by Trump and the incoming administration, the new 101 00:06:21,720 --> 00:06:28,280 Speaker 1: administration as a waste of money. They can successfully perhaps 102 00:06:28,400 --> 00:06:30,960 Speaker 1: gut that agency. But the one thing that again has 103 00:06:31,000 --> 00:06:33,640 Speaker 1: to happen is you have to have, at least if 104 00:06:33,640 --> 00:06:38,240 Speaker 1: you're playing by traditional rules, you have to have congressional approval. 105 00:06:38,400 --> 00:06:41,320 Speaker 1: You just can't come in and close down an agency. Now, 106 00:06:41,680 --> 00:06:44,040 Speaker 1: the one thing you can do, and I think they 107 00:06:44,080 --> 00:06:47,760 Speaker 1: are doing it and we're seeing it in real time, 108 00:06:47,839 --> 00:06:53,120 Speaker 1: to use The phrase is you can sap the various 109 00:06:53,160 --> 00:06:57,719 Speaker 1: departments of government of money and personnel, and in doing 110 00:06:57,760 --> 00:07:01,480 Speaker 1: that you, from a de facto stand point, they're closed. 111 00:07:01,960 --> 00:07:04,240 Speaker 1: So I get it. There's still a building there, it 112 00:07:04,320 --> 00:07:07,960 Speaker 1: still says Department of Education, but there is no one 113 00:07:08,000 --> 00:07:11,640 Speaker 1: there in that building effectively, and there's no real functioning 114 00:07:11,680 --> 00:07:13,000 Speaker 1: budget to keep it going. 115 00:07:13,480 --> 00:07:14,880 Speaker 4: You'll see a lot of that. 116 00:07:14,920 --> 00:07:19,480 Speaker 1: I think that's the tactic they will use because actually 117 00:07:19,480 --> 00:07:22,320 Speaker 1: closing down the department would require a vote from Congress, 118 00:07:22,320 --> 00:07:24,880 Speaker 1: and I don't know that you're going to get congressional approval. 119 00:07:25,560 --> 00:07:28,640 Speaker 1: It puts these congress people in a tough spot. They 120 00:07:28,640 --> 00:07:32,000 Speaker 1: are already looking ahead at midterms. They're certainly intimidated by 121 00:07:32,040 --> 00:07:34,640 Speaker 1: Trump when it comes to midterms as well being primary 122 00:07:34,640 --> 00:07:37,040 Speaker 1: et cetera. But I think the safe way to go 123 00:07:37,280 --> 00:07:43,800 Speaker 1: is to sap these various government departments of money and personnel. 124 00:07:44,480 --> 00:07:47,920 Speaker 1: So it continues, and a lot of it continues under 125 00:07:48,520 --> 00:07:50,320 Speaker 1: cloak of secrecy. 126 00:07:50,360 --> 00:07:51,000 Speaker 4: We will see. 127 00:07:51,680 --> 00:07:53,800 Speaker 1: It's the co Belt Show, Thompson sitting in. I'm KFI 128 00:07:53,840 --> 00:07:56,360 Speaker 1: AM six forty live everywhere on the iHeartRadio app. 129 00:07:57,080 --> 00:08:01,680 Speaker 5: You're listening to John Cobelt on demand from KFI six. 130 00:08:03,560 --> 00:08:07,480 Speaker 1: Later in the show, we will discuss I know, it's 131 00:08:07,520 --> 00:08:08,760 Speaker 1: Super Bowl weekend. 132 00:08:09,280 --> 00:08:09,920 Speaker 4: There is a. 133 00:08:11,560 --> 00:08:16,600 Speaker 1: Lot about the game, and there's a lot about the ads. 134 00:08:17,200 --> 00:08:20,560 Speaker 1: We will share a couple of the most popular ads 135 00:08:20,840 --> 00:08:23,800 Speaker 1: with you, and I will ask Eric to weigh in 136 00:08:25,200 --> 00:08:28,520 Speaker 1: with his prediction as to how the game will go 137 00:08:28,560 --> 00:08:33,000 Speaker 1: and ultimately who will prevail in the contest. I also 138 00:08:33,040 --> 00:08:38,199 Speaker 1: will need a point spread, and so I'll consult Eric 139 00:08:38,280 --> 00:08:40,800 Speaker 1: before the end of the program. He of all of us, 140 00:08:41,440 --> 00:08:45,680 Speaker 1: probably has the best chops when it comes to evaluating 141 00:08:46,280 --> 00:08:47,480 Speaker 1: sports of this kind. 142 00:08:47,960 --> 00:08:49,160 Speaker 4: That's why we will go to him. 143 00:08:49,880 --> 00:08:54,640 Speaker 1: But for now, there is something happening in Joshua Tree 144 00:08:54,679 --> 00:08:56,360 Speaker 1: that's kind of wild. 145 00:08:57,640 --> 00:08:58,200 Speaker 4: There is a. 146 00:09:00,000 --> 00:09:08,319 Speaker 1: An acquisition of huge amounts of acreage in Joshua Tree's 147 00:09:08,640 --> 00:09:12,800 Speaker 1: National Park area, this Whispering Pines area, and the people 148 00:09:12,800 --> 00:09:17,920 Speaker 1: who live there are concerned about what's going to happen. 149 00:09:18,400 --> 00:09:22,040 Speaker 1: It's unclear what is going to happen. Is it development? 150 00:09:22,360 --> 00:09:26,199 Speaker 1: And it's a very sensitive region environmentally ecologically, you know, 151 00:09:27,120 --> 00:09:32,960 Speaker 1: And there are those prefab cabins and a widening of 152 00:09:33,040 --> 00:09:37,480 Speaker 1: access roads already beginning to take hold there. And so 153 00:09:37,600 --> 00:09:42,760 Speaker 1: people who are watching this area are worried about a 154 00:09:42,840 --> 00:09:47,080 Speaker 1: degradation of the environment, you know, depletion of water, fire 155 00:09:47,160 --> 00:09:51,280 Speaker 1: risk that increases, and the National Park Service has a 156 00:09:51,320 --> 00:09:56,319 Speaker 1: presence there and they're looking into permit violations maybe because 157 00:09:56,440 --> 00:10:00,800 Speaker 1: of all of these activities, but the new landowners have 158 00:10:01,520 --> 00:10:06,120 Speaker 1: stayed quiet. LA Times did a review of online and 159 00:10:06,160 --> 00:10:09,240 Speaker 1: public records. They found that people and entities linked to 160 00:10:09,320 --> 00:10:14,280 Speaker 1: this development group called Dark Horse, have acquired more than 161 00:10:14,320 --> 00:10:17,520 Speaker 1: one hundred acres in and around this Whispering Pines area 162 00:10:17,600 --> 00:10:24,360 Speaker 1: since twenty twenty one. Some of those have ties to 163 00:10:25,360 --> 00:10:28,040 Speaker 1: the hotel and hospitality industry. In other words, some of 164 00:10:28,080 --> 00:10:36,200 Speaker 1: those acquisitions point back to that. But consultants in the 165 00:10:36,200 --> 00:10:40,120 Speaker 1: hotel industry say that that location, the Whispering Pines location, 166 00:10:40,400 --> 00:10:44,920 Speaker 1: within the park boundaries, they say it could be a 167 00:10:45,080 --> 00:10:51,320 Speaker 1: terrific area for development to set up lodges, to set 168 00:10:51,400 --> 00:11:00,440 Speaker 1: up essentially an industry in the tourist service world. So 169 00:11:00,640 --> 00:11:04,200 Speaker 1: again not saying high rise hotel, but saying that there 170 00:11:04,240 --> 00:11:08,880 Speaker 1: could be a kind of development that would house tourists 171 00:11:08,920 --> 00:11:12,880 Speaker 1: and exploit that area for tourism and for housing tourists. Okay, 172 00:11:13,880 --> 00:11:18,440 Speaker 1: there is no lodging in Joshua Tree besides campgrounds. So 173 00:11:18,480 --> 00:11:21,080 Speaker 1: if you've been out there. You know, you kind of 174 00:11:21,120 --> 00:11:27,040 Speaker 1: go out there to essentially commune with nature. So the 175 00:11:27,160 --> 00:11:30,200 Speaker 1: idea is, well, there's nothing like this out there. There 176 00:11:30,280 --> 00:11:35,800 Speaker 1: might be a demand for some kind of hospitality project. 177 00:11:35,880 --> 00:11:41,319 Speaker 1: And as they talk to consulting firms, those consulting firms 178 00:11:41,360 --> 00:11:46,400 Speaker 1: in the hospitality industry say that Joshua Tree would just 179 00:11:46,520 --> 00:11:50,840 Speaker 1: be a sweet spot for four star suites or cabins 180 00:11:50,880 --> 00:11:53,520 Speaker 1: for one hundred and fifty dollars a night. Whatever you 181 00:11:53,600 --> 00:11:57,720 Speaker 1: put there would do well. The problem is, see my 182 00:11:57,840 --> 00:12:02,679 Speaker 1: first point, this is a very sensitive area. And if 183 00:12:02,679 --> 00:12:06,800 Speaker 1: you look at the demands of water in a water 184 00:12:06,880 --> 00:12:13,800 Speaker 1: table that's already likely sensitively flirting with real depletion. I mean, 185 00:12:13,840 --> 00:12:17,959 Speaker 1: it's an ecologically sensitive area of the park. You begin 186 00:12:18,040 --> 00:12:21,520 Speaker 1: to see some of the sensitivities that environmentalists have and 187 00:12:21,559 --> 00:12:25,120 Speaker 1: that those who frequent the area have. I don't want 188 00:12:25,160 --> 00:12:31,840 Speaker 1: people punching wells, said a local wilderness guide. He talked 189 00:12:31,880 --> 00:12:35,560 Speaker 1: about the potential impact on wildlife. More human activity raises 190 00:12:35,600 --> 00:12:41,960 Speaker 1: the risk of fire. The guy who owns North American 191 00:12:42,080 --> 00:12:45,120 Speaker 1: Drilling in Yuca Valley said that he drilled a well 192 00:12:45,640 --> 00:12:49,240 Speaker 1: on one of these spots in Whispering Pines in twenty 193 00:12:49,280 --> 00:12:53,120 Speaker 1: twenty two, and he was later asked to drill more wells. 194 00:12:53,240 --> 00:12:55,840 Speaker 1: And again all the acquisitions started in twenty twenty one. 195 00:12:55,960 --> 00:13:00,880 Speaker 1: So the drills and the wells that their drill, they 196 00:13:01,480 --> 00:13:05,719 Speaker 1: dusted them off in twenty twenty two. But the landowners 197 00:13:05,800 --> 00:13:10,800 Speaker 1: won't say what the use is. And in order to 198 00:13:11,160 --> 00:13:14,000 Speaker 1: properly calculate the size of the wells, you need to 199 00:13:14,120 --> 00:13:16,960 Speaker 1: know what the use is. And for that reason, this 200 00:13:17,040 --> 00:13:21,160 Speaker 1: guy who owns that North American Drilling in Yuca Valley said, 201 00:13:22,040 --> 00:13:23,920 Speaker 1: I cut ties with the owners. I don't have anything 202 00:13:23,960 --> 00:13:25,480 Speaker 1: to do with them anymore because they wouldn't tell me 203 00:13:25,520 --> 00:13:29,480 Speaker 1: what they were wanting me to drill these wells for 204 00:13:31,280 --> 00:13:36,600 Speaker 1: how much water you need? So again, the outfit is 205 00:13:36,640 --> 00:13:40,560 Speaker 1: called dark Horse Tactical Investments, and they've acquired at least 206 00:13:40,559 --> 00:13:44,480 Speaker 1: twenty two separate parcels in this area of Joshua Tree, 207 00:13:46,000 --> 00:13:50,080 Speaker 1: and this is about one hundred and seventeen acres that 208 00:13:50,120 --> 00:13:54,000 Speaker 1: they have purchased for more than two point nine million dollars, 209 00:13:54,080 --> 00:13:57,800 Speaker 1: and one five acre lot they got for two hundred 210 00:13:57,840 --> 00:14:00,080 Speaker 1: and twenty five thousand dollars in twenty twenty two. You 211 00:14:01,000 --> 00:14:05,559 Speaker 1: had last sold for six thousand. So they are if 212 00:14:05,600 --> 00:14:09,040 Speaker 1: you will overpaying for this, It would suggest that they 213 00:14:09,120 --> 00:14:12,200 Speaker 1: have some big plans for this area, and there are 214 00:14:12,280 --> 00:14:18,640 Speaker 1: homesteaders there. Many homesteaders had filed for this land in 215 00:14:18,679 --> 00:14:23,000 Speaker 1: the twenties and thirties and they've been grandfathered in. So 216 00:14:23,080 --> 00:14:28,360 Speaker 1: there could be an interesting mix of differing interests when 217 00:14:28,400 --> 00:14:31,760 Speaker 1: you talk about Joshua Tree and acquiring land there and 218 00:14:31,840 --> 00:14:36,680 Speaker 1: try to exploit the land for real money. There is 219 00:14:38,080 --> 00:14:44,520 Speaker 1: expansion of the roads that's done aggressively and that is 220 00:14:44,600 --> 00:14:48,080 Speaker 1: also done with approval, and according to nearby residents, big 221 00:14:48,120 --> 00:14:51,800 Speaker 1: trucks towing construction equipment. Apparently many of those trucks are 222 00:14:52,080 --> 00:14:55,320 Speaker 1: rumbling up those expanded roads. The roads are closed to 223 00:14:55,360 --> 00:15:02,080 Speaker 1: the public and will there likely be cabins there on 224 00:15:02,200 --> 00:15:08,000 Speaker 1: these widened and graded roads maybe and the new neighbors 225 00:15:08,440 --> 00:15:13,840 Speaker 1: again part of this LLC. They are looking at what 226 00:15:13,960 --> 00:15:19,040 Speaker 1: will likely be real estate development in Joshua Tree. Look, 227 00:15:19,080 --> 00:15:22,640 Speaker 1: they own the land. Now'll be a question of getting 228 00:15:22,680 --> 00:15:29,040 Speaker 1: approval for some of that drilling, and this pristine environment 229 00:15:30,080 --> 00:15:34,080 Speaker 1: will likely be changing, and the texture of that environment 230 00:15:34,120 --> 00:15:38,160 Speaker 1: may involve exploitation by developers. Now, if you're someone who 231 00:15:38,680 --> 00:15:40,680 Speaker 1: would like to spend the night in Joshua Tree but 232 00:15:40,720 --> 00:15:42,280 Speaker 1: doesn't want to sleep under the stars. 233 00:15:42,840 --> 00:15:43,680 Speaker 4: I guess it's a win. 234 00:15:44,920 --> 00:15:48,760 Speaker 1: But if you're someone who enjoys the pristine nature of 235 00:15:48,840 --> 00:15:54,520 Speaker 1: Joshua Tree, then enjoy the last months of that that 236 00:15:54,640 --> 00:15:56,560 Speaker 1: may indeed be changing. 237 00:15:58,200 --> 00:16:00,320 Speaker 4: No men in women's sports. 238 00:16:01,840 --> 00:16:06,600 Speaker 1: So came the declaration from Donald Trump and the executive 239 00:16:06,720 --> 00:16:08,520 Speaker 1: order out of the new administration. 240 00:16:09,200 --> 00:16:10,520 Speaker 4: We get to that next. 241 00:16:11,360 --> 00:16:14,080 Speaker 1: Mark Thompson for John Cobelt on KFI AM six forty 242 00:16:14,160 --> 00:16:16,080 Speaker 1: live everywhere on the iHeartRadio app. 243 00:16:17,080 --> 00:16:21,440 Speaker 5: You're listening to John Cobelt on demand from KFI AM 244 00:16:21,440 --> 00:16:22,040 Speaker 5: six forty. 245 00:16:22,800 --> 00:16:28,640 Speaker 1: Mark Thompson here for John Cobelt today, and the the 246 00:16:28,720 --> 00:16:32,000 Speaker 1: official ban is in place. You know, Donald Trump signed 247 00:16:32,080 --> 00:16:36,240 Speaker 1: the executive order, no more trans athletes. 248 00:16:36,840 --> 00:16:40,520 Speaker 4: We'll compete in women's sports. Here's what it sounded like with. 249 00:16:40,560 --> 00:16:44,160 Speaker 6: This executive order. The war on women's sports is over. 250 00:16:51,120 --> 00:16:55,360 Speaker 6: Under the Trump administration. We will defend the proud tradition 251 00:16:55,440 --> 00:16:58,800 Speaker 6: of female athletes, and we will not allow men to 252 00:16:58,880 --> 00:17:02,280 Speaker 6: beat up, injure and cheat our women and our girls. 253 00:17:02,320 --> 00:17:06,720 Speaker 6: From now on, women's sports will be only for women. 254 00:17:09,720 --> 00:17:13,160 Speaker 6: With my action this afternoon, we're putting every school receiving 255 00:17:13,320 --> 00:17:15,960 Speaker 6: taxpayer dollars or notice that if you let men take 256 00:17:16,000 --> 00:17:20,959 Speaker 6: over women's sports teams or invade your locker rooms, you 257 00:17:21,000 --> 00:17:24,760 Speaker 6: will be investigated for violations of Title NINN and risk 258 00:17:24,840 --> 00:17:25,760 Speaker 6: your federal funding. 259 00:17:25,800 --> 00:17:31,680 Speaker 4: There will be no federal FUNDA. So when the Olympics comes. 260 00:17:31,400 --> 00:17:36,040 Speaker 6: To Los Angeles in twenty twenty eight, my administration will 261 00:17:36,040 --> 00:17:41,119 Speaker 6: not stand by and watch men beat and batter female athletes. 262 00:17:41,160 --> 00:17:42,879 Speaker 4: And we're just not going to let it happen. 263 00:17:42,960 --> 00:17:45,520 Speaker 6: And it's going to end, and it's ending great now, 264 00:17:45,560 --> 00:17:47,720 Speaker 6: and nobody's going to be able to do a damn 265 00:17:47,760 --> 00:17:51,600 Speaker 6: thing about it, because when I speak, we speak with authority. 266 00:17:54,320 --> 00:18:00,320 Speaker 1: So NCAA President Charlie Baker, responding to this executive order 267 00:18:00,320 --> 00:18:06,240 Speaker 1: in a statement, said that there is a clear national 268 00:18:06,280 --> 00:18:09,239 Speaker 1: standard that the NCAA Board of Governors is going to 269 00:18:09,240 --> 00:18:13,480 Speaker 1: review take steps to align the organization's policy in the 270 00:18:13,520 --> 00:18:20,159 Speaker 1: coming days. The NCAA officially banning trans athletes from women's 271 00:18:20,200 --> 00:18:28,280 Speaker 1: sports this a day after that signing. This is likely 272 00:18:28,359 --> 00:18:32,600 Speaker 1: going to be something where the shoe pinches. When the 273 00:18:32,640 --> 00:18:36,600 Speaker 1: Olympics roll around, we will see. I mean, there have 274 00:18:36,600 --> 00:18:42,040 Speaker 1: been some very high profile cases involving trans athletes. Right 275 00:18:43,080 --> 00:18:48,440 Speaker 1: the case, I'm thinking of is there's Leah Thomas, right, 276 00:18:50,560 --> 00:18:53,879 Speaker 1: and there were multiple lawsuits against the nc DOUBLEA and 277 00:18:53,960 --> 00:19:00,400 Speaker 1: member schools the sharing of the locker room with that 278 00:19:00,400 --> 00:19:02,879 Speaker 1: trans swimmer at Leah Thomas. That was in twenty twenty 279 00:19:02,880 --> 00:19:09,840 Speaker 1: two national championships. And aside from that, and I also 280 00:19:10,000 --> 00:19:14,919 Speaker 1: think there've been some there's a tragic case of the 281 00:19:15,040 --> 00:19:20,760 Speaker 1: volleyball player, a transgender volleyball player, Blair Fleming, played three 282 00:19:21,200 --> 00:19:26,919 Speaker 1: seasons at San Jose State. And you know, again, these 283 00:19:27,119 --> 00:19:34,080 Speaker 1: are gifted athletes who bring oftentimes a male biology to 284 00:19:34,600 --> 00:19:39,080 Speaker 1: that kind of competitive environment. And for that reason, you 285 00:19:39,200 --> 00:19:43,320 Speaker 1: can legitimately see why they'd be concerned. But how many 286 00:19:43,480 --> 00:19:48,000 Speaker 1: of them are there? The NCAA is made of eleven 287 00:19:48,119 --> 00:19:53,840 Speaker 1: hundred colleges and universities. They're everywhere in all fifty states, 288 00:19:54,720 --> 00:19:58,400 Speaker 1: and they enroll a little over half a million student athletes, 289 00:19:58,480 --> 00:20:02,639 Speaker 1: five hundred and thirty thousand. And according to the Senate 290 00:20:02,680 --> 00:20:08,280 Speaker 1: committee back and forth with the head of NCUBA Athletics, 291 00:20:08,840 --> 00:20:13,040 Speaker 1: they had a big hearing on this in December. And 292 00:20:14,680 --> 00:20:17,400 Speaker 1: this guy, Charlie Baker is the NCUBA presidents I say 293 00:20:17,400 --> 00:20:20,080 Speaker 1: he's the head, and he's the guy who just has 294 00:20:20,119 --> 00:20:24,360 Speaker 1: responded to this executive order. He told a Senate committee 295 00:20:24,400 --> 00:20:28,399 Speaker 1: in December, how many transgender athletes in the NCUBAA. What 296 00:20:28,400 --> 00:20:31,240 Speaker 1: would you say? How many would you guess? He would say, 297 00:20:33,160 --> 00:20:36,200 Speaker 1: I don't know. Would you say one thousand, five hundred? 298 00:20:36,800 --> 00:20:40,200 Speaker 1: They're five hundred and thirty thousand student athletes? How many 299 00:20:40,240 --> 00:20:44,680 Speaker 1: of that number? Ten percent? There were less than ten 300 00:20:45,760 --> 00:20:51,120 Speaker 1: transgender athletes in the NCUBA, according again to the president 301 00:20:51,720 --> 00:20:55,480 Speaker 1: of the nc Douba. Still the executive order goes into place, 302 00:20:55,520 --> 00:21:00,720 Speaker 1: and now the nc DOUBLEA officially banning trans athletes. I'm 303 00:21:00,760 --> 00:21:05,080 Speaker 1: just saying, though the concern may be oversized. Now, you 304 00:21:05,119 --> 00:21:08,760 Speaker 1: could also say, hey, when you're staring down the barrel 305 00:21:08,840 --> 00:21:13,640 Speaker 1: of somebody who was born a man, may have gone 306 00:21:13,760 --> 00:21:19,320 Speaker 1: through a male puberty and now is competing in women's 307 00:21:19,320 --> 00:21:25,960 Speaker 1: sports because of a decision to transition, then that's a 308 00:21:26,040 --> 00:21:30,800 Speaker 1: very serious situation. There is a gray area here, and 309 00:21:30,880 --> 00:21:35,440 Speaker 1: we're wrestling with it as a society, you know. But wow, 310 00:21:35,520 --> 00:21:39,919 Speaker 1: the number of trans athletes is really a small number. Again, 311 00:21:40,080 --> 00:21:46,919 Speaker 1: fewer than ten. They say none will be competing in 312 00:21:46,960 --> 00:21:52,680 Speaker 1: the super Bowl. The Super Bowl, the high water mark 313 00:21:53,000 --> 00:21:57,040 Speaker 1: of the NFL will be I think the pregame show 314 00:21:57,080 --> 00:22:02,000 Speaker 1: starts in like an hour. They have many, many hours 315 00:22:02,200 --> 00:22:06,919 Speaker 1: of pre game action. As we all scurry around with 316 00:22:07,040 --> 00:22:12,720 Speaker 1: our Super Bowl boxes, with our Super Bowl picks. I've 317 00:22:12,720 --> 00:22:18,719 Speaker 1: got teases, I've got parlays, I've got insiders. Word Petrosen 318 00:22:18,800 --> 00:22:25,359 Speaker 1: Money said this. You've listened to sports radio hoping for 319 00:22:25,400 --> 00:22:31,200 Speaker 1: a little information. Mahomes the officials, the chiefs. They're favored 320 00:22:32,080 --> 00:22:35,960 Speaker 1: that by the NFL. They want that Cinderella story, they 321 00:22:35,960 --> 00:22:40,280 Speaker 1: want a three pat Well, the other side of that, 322 00:22:42,000 --> 00:22:47,840 Speaker 1: alongside the actual NFL action is the Super Bowl ads. 323 00:22:48,520 --> 00:22:52,160 Speaker 1: We have them ranked and we'll share a couple with you. Next, 324 00:22:52,680 --> 00:22:54,800 Speaker 1: it's the John Covelt Show. Mark Thompson sitting in for 325 00:22:54,880 --> 00:22:59,240 Speaker 1: John KFI AM six forty live everywhere on the iHeartRadio. 326 00:22:58,560 --> 00:23:04,480 Speaker 5: Appstening to John Cobelt on demand from KFI A sixty. 327 00:23:05,320 --> 00:23:07,960 Speaker 1: Mark Thompson here for John Cobelt. Yes, the super Bowl 328 00:23:08,040 --> 00:23:10,600 Speaker 1: is coming up. It's a big weekend. People have parties 329 00:23:10,600 --> 00:23:16,399 Speaker 1: planned all the rest. The ads have become their own 330 00:23:16,600 --> 00:23:20,680 Speaker 1: beast associated with the Super Bowl, right, And I mean 331 00:23:20,680 --> 00:23:22,480 Speaker 1: it used to be like the ads when you would 332 00:23:22,520 --> 00:23:24,000 Speaker 1: be when you'd go to the bathroom and you go 333 00:23:24,000 --> 00:23:26,920 Speaker 1: get a sandwich whatever. Now the ads are this thing 334 00:23:27,160 --> 00:23:30,120 Speaker 1: that you want to see.
