Speaker 1: Going up next our final News round Up and Information
Speaker 1: Overload Hour, A.
Speaker 2: Right News Roundup and Information Overload Hour. Here's our toll
Speaker 2: free number. It is eight hundred and nine four one
Speaker 2: Sean if you want to be a part of the program.
Speaker 2: It's really amazing that we are where we are and
Speaker 2: this tragedy unfolded in California, and it's so sad that
Speaker 2: so many people. I mean, if you look at the
Speaker 2: images of devastation, it's block after block and rows of
Speaker 2: homes after rows of homes just live shattered, and it's
Speaker 2: it just is so sad. And then when you find out, well,
Speaker 2: there the fire hydrants not only were working, quote, they
Speaker 2: weren't designed for wildfires. Well, what was the contingency plan?
Speaker 2: Now we know that in the Pacific Palisades, we know
Speaker 2: that the reservoir was empty.
Speaker 3: Why is that?
Speaker 2: We also have learned a lot that California is given
Speaker 2: up on the science of forestry that would be clearing
Speaker 2: brush and controlled burns. We know that in twenty fourteen,
Speaker 2: the taxpayers of California approved, you know, building these water
Speaker 2: reservoirs so the waters would be available. You know, California
Speaker 2: is known for wildfires. Santa Ana winds are predictable. The
Speaker 2: LA Fire Department budget was cut between state and federal funds.
Speaker 2: We learned six hundred and fifty million dollars was allocated
Speaker 2: to make the LA port green. Tell me how that
Speaker 2: makes sense. Then we found out that they were spending
Speaker 2: in LA eight hundred thousand dollars for quote green street sweepers.
Speaker 2: And then we see this plan for billions of dollars
Speaker 2: for wind turbines out in California, which, by the way,
Speaker 2: nobody out there really wants, not even the most liberal
Speaker 2: green person out there. It's the highest tax state in
Speaker 2: the country. There's plenty of money allocated for illegal immigrants
Speaker 2: in that sanctuary state and the sanctuary city of Laws Angelus.
Speaker 2: And the point is is that you know, they're they're
Speaker 2: they're now busy Trump proof in California instead of trying
Speaker 2: to maybe be somewhat introspective and ask why does this
Speaker 2: keep happening and how do we prevent it from happening?
Speaker 2: Because this keeps happening, It's it's madness, it's insane. It
Speaker 2: was Gavin Newsom, you know, surveying the damage yesterday, and
Speaker 2: a victim of these fires, a woman came up to
Speaker 2: him and was unrelenting. It was kind of like Linda
Speaker 2: at a school board meeting without the cuss words.
Speaker 3: Listen, that was my daughter's school.
Speaker 1: Governor, Please tell me what.
Speaker 4: You're going to do.
Speaker 5: Can hurt of my promise?
Speaker 1: Literally talking to the president right now to specifically answer
Speaker 1: the question of what we can do for you and
Speaker 1: your daughter?
Speaker 6: Can I hear it too?
Speaker 3: Can I hear your call? Because I don't believe it.
Speaker 5: I'm sorry, am I.
Speaker 3: There's literally I've tried five times. That's why I'm walking
Speaker 3: around to make them. I'm a president not taking a call.
Speaker 7: Because it's not going through.
Speaker 3: Why I have to get service. Let's get it, Let's
Speaker 3: get it. I want to be here when you call
Speaker 3: the president.
Speaker 7: I appreciate it.
Speaker 4: I'm doing that right now, and it's to immediately get reimbursements,
Speaker 4: individual assistance.
Speaker 3: And to help you on your death is looking. I'm
Speaker 3: so sorry, especially for your daughter. I have the four kids.
Speaker 8: Please everyone who went to school there, they lost their homes.
Speaker 6: They lost two homes because they were living in one.
Speaker 3: And building another.
Speaker 8: Ken, please tell me tell me what are you going
Speaker 8: to do with the president.
Speaker 4: Right now, We're getting we're getting the resources to help rebuild.
Speaker 3: Why is there no water in the hydrants? Scotty, it's
Speaker 3: all literally? Is it going to be different next time?
Speaker 3: It has to be? Has to be of course, what
Speaker 3: are you going to do to fill the hydrants? I
Speaker 3: would fill them up personally, you know that. I literally
Speaker 3: I would fill off the hydrants myself. But would you do?
Speaker 2: I would do whatever I can, but do not Linda?
Speaker 2: Is that a little bit like you're my way off face?
Speaker 6: She's really nice, She's really I would have been a
Speaker 6: lot more direct.
Speaker 3: You would have been? And how many? How many f
Speaker 3: bombs would you have dropped?
Speaker 1: Hair?
Speaker 3: To stand it? Forget about it?
Speaker 2: I felt, but I felt sorry for her. I mean,
Speaker 2: and she's so sincere. But a whole life, you know.
Speaker 2: I mean we have over ten thousand damage or destroyed
Speaker 2: homes out there, ten people are dead, all of it,
Speaker 2: in my mind, preventable. Sarah Carter is with US investigative reporter,
Speaker 2: Fox News contributor born and raised in California, worked there
Speaker 2: for many years as an adult, and Kira Davis, an
Speaker 2: LA resident, author of the book Drawing Lines. Sarah, I'm
Speaker 2: sure you would agree with my characterization about the Pacific
Speaker 2: Coast Highway and the fact that these these wildfires keep happening,
Speaker 2: and then we have, you know, hydrants that aren't equipped
Speaker 2: for these type of fires. There's no real plan in place.
Speaker 2: We have an empty reservoir in in in the Pacific Palisades.
Speaker 2: They don't even have water to get to the fires.
Speaker 2: Firefighters are willing to risk their lives and then this
Speaker 2: is the result, and well, we're going to try and
Speaker 2: fix it. I mean, it's a too little too late
Speaker 2: in my mind.
Speaker 7: Oh, it is, Sean. It's shameful. It's devastating, and it's shameful,
Speaker 7: and it's criminal. More so, it's criminal. Ten people have
Speaker 7: lost their lives and the fact that we find out
Speaker 7: now that the reservoir was completely empty of water in
Speaker 7: an area that is known for having wildfires. And you're right,
Speaker 7: I covered them when I was younger at the Daily Bulletin.
Speaker 7: It was my very first job in news. I was
Speaker 7: a news reporter covering local news. We have the San Bernardino,
Speaker 7: San Bernardino fires and I was going up into the
Speaker 7: San Brandino fires with the fire department and it was
Speaker 7: devastating then. But look at what's happened now. It's the
Speaker 7: worst fire disaster in the history of California right now,
Speaker 7: and it's not stopped. It's continuing to go. And I
Speaker 7: think what is even more part gut wrenching, it's heartbreaking,
Speaker 7: is that you look at the people that are in charge.
Speaker 7: Right You have Kenyonis, who was head of the Water.
Speaker 7: Her only job was to make sure that there was
Speaker 7: water there. She was making seven hundred and fifty She
Speaker 7: is making actually seven hundred and fifty thousand dollars a year,
Speaker 7: twice what her predecessor made, and there was absolutely no
Speaker 7: water there. There are so many people that are saying,
Speaker 7: what is going on here? Was this purposeful?
Speaker 4: Was this?
Speaker 7: I mean? And they have every right to question it.
Speaker 7: There needs to be a full fledged investigation because people
Speaker 7: lost their lives. The mayor, the head of California Water,
Speaker 7: everybody to the governor, to Governor Gavin Newsom. They have
Speaker 7: to be investigated. Where are taxpayer dollars going? And what
Speaker 7: is going on here? And they I don't even know
Speaker 7: if an apology is going to be good enough. There
Speaker 7: are people that will never be able to rebuild, and
Speaker 7: there are people that will never see their family members again,
Speaker 7: and all because of the incompetency and criminal acts of
Speaker 7: the people in California.
Speaker 4: That are in charge.
Speaker 2: Let's get your take, Kira Davis. I mean, it's so
Speaker 2: sad what's happening there. And then if you want to rebuild,
Speaker 2: I mean, if you listen to Juliet Michael's when of
Speaker 2: her house burdened in twenty eighteen, she couldn't even get
Speaker 2: the permits to build again.
Speaker 9: I'm so glad you said that, Sean, because this is
Speaker 9: what I need people to understand. We're only at the
Speaker 9: tip of this iceberg.
Speaker 1: These fires are.
Speaker 9: Going to burn for weeks, if not months. There is
Speaker 9: a land, very valuable land that is sitting fare and
Speaker 9: in ashes right now, especially in Pacific Palisades and Alta Dina.
Speaker 9: What's going to happen when those people try to rebuild.
Speaker 9: Who do they have to go through. Let's break this down.
Speaker 9: They're going to have to go through the Coastal Commission.
Speaker 9: The California Coastal Commission is basically the MOB. Imagine how
Speaker 9: hard it is for a restaurant to get a liquor license.
Speaker 9: Now multiply that by eleventy billion. That's the Coastal Commission
Speaker 9: in Calnia. They're the MOB. D w P, that's the
Speaker 9: Department of water and power. As Sarah just mentioned.
Speaker 1: They're the mob.
Speaker 9: They don't care about the people, They care about themselves.
Speaker 9: So all of Newsom's developer friends, all of Pelosi's developer friends,
Speaker 9: they've had their eye on the California coast for decades,
Speaker 9: in the southern coast. So now, who's going to be
Speaker 9: there to help those people rebuild and get their property
Speaker 9: back and get.
Speaker 2: Their back We just we just turned from Adam Carolla
Speaker 2: and I knew Suzanne Summers and her husband. I liked
Speaker 2: them both a lot. They were wonderful, wonderful people. She
Speaker 2: passed away, he's still alive. And you know when they
Speaker 2: when their house burned out in Malibu, took them seven
Speaker 2: years to be able to rebuild.
Speaker 3: Seven seven years is an eternity. It should be seven weeks.
Speaker 3: And at the most it's not an accident.
Speaker 9: It's not an accident. They do this to us on purpose.
Speaker 9: There's a reason why the City of Huntington Beach has
Speaker 9: been on Gavin Newsom's crap list for the last four years.
Speaker 9: They refuse to comply with this type of nonsense. But
Speaker 9: this is what I want to say, Sean. Now is
Speaker 9: the time for California to change leadership. Now is the moment.
Speaker 9: We have never seen a moment like this. I have
Speaker 9: never seen Californians of all stripes, more angry, more emotional,
Speaker 9: more sick and tired of the same old bs from
Speaker 9: their leaders. Everywhere I go, people are upset, people are angry,
Speaker 9: people are crying, Strangers are holding each other. If you're
Speaker 9: in the fire zone or not, it's crazy. And this
Speaker 9: is a direct result of the leadership. And people are
Speaker 9: saying now that the time to play politics. Oh hell no,
Speaker 9: now is the time to play politics, because they've been
Speaker 9: playing politics work with our lives for decades and this
Speaker 9: is where we are. So yes, now it's the moment
Speaker 9: California to play politics. Now is the moment to do
Speaker 9: a complete sweep. Let's burn away as this nonsense.
Speaker 3: Well you know, I mean, that's the saddest part of
Speaker 3: all this.
Speaker 2: All right, quick break, welcome right back, more with Sarah
Speaker 2: Carter and Kira Davis on the other side, and then
Speaker 2: we'll get to your calls today eight hundred and nine
Speaker 2: four one. Shawn is on number if you want to
Speaker 2: be a part of the program. Sorry, we continue now.
Speaker 2: Sarah Carter and Kira Davis are with us as we
Speaker 2: talk more about the preventable disaster out in California. You know,
Speaker 2: we had the U Haul Index come out recently and
Speaker 2: you know, for the fifth time at almost in a row, California.
Speaker 2: Is there the fewest number of people migrating to California
Speaker 2: and the highest number of people leaving California of any state.
Speaker 2: New York is not far behind. And where are people
Speaker 2: moving to? South Carolina actually ended up being number one,
Speaker 2: which doesn't surprise me. I've been there many many times.
Speaker 2: I love South Carolina. Love keywa if you've ever been there.
Speaker 2: Debado is great. You know, any of the coastal areas
Speaker 2: in the Carolina's a phenomenal. They have low taxes. It's
Speaker 2: a great state. And then of course they you have
Speaker 2: Texas and Florida and Tennessee in that grouping. But people
Speaker 2: are leaving the states and drove Sarah Carter, and it's
Speaker 2: like they're being pushed out as the highest tax state
Speaker 2: in the country. I mean, I talked to Adam Kroll.
Speaker 2: The cost of a gallon of gasoline is nearly twice
Speaker 2: what I pay in Florida and we don't even have
Speaker 2: a state income tax here.
Speaker 7: Yeah, it's shocking. Sean and you and I have covered
Speaker 7: that over and over again for Hannity. We've gone to
Speaker 7: California and have seen the overwhelming prices, people being priced out,
Speaker 7: the failure of the California government to do its job
Speaker 7: to protect the people of California, to filled by the
Speaker 7: way on the streets where they've actually purposefully made the
Speaker 7: cities unlivable. So people are fleeing to states like I
Speaker 7: live in, like Texas, Florida, like you said, South Carolina,
Speaker 7: other parts. California lots a congressional seat for the first
Speaker 7: time in like twenty twenty one, and it lost one
Speaker 7: of its fifty three House seats after the twenty twenty
Speaker 7: census basically realized, you know, I mean, the population has
Speaker 7: just stopped. It was it stopped, it was reversing, and
Speaker 7: you're right, and it's not going to stop until these
Speaker 7: Democrats are voted out of office. These people that Kira
Speaker 7: rightly calls a mafia. They have made a disaster of
Speaker 7: one of the most beautiful states in our nation, one
Speaker 7: of the economic powerhouses, and like she said, they're pricing
Speaker 7: out the people that want to live there, and even
Speaker 7: the people that supported them, that supported them even in
Speaker 7: Hollywood right now. And this is where I completely agree
Speaker 7: with Sira on this. I mean, it's over for Gavin Newsom.
Speaker 7: It's over for him now, and those people are starting
Speaker 7: to wake up and they are going to realize, Wow,
Speaker 7: the biggest mistakes that they have made, and a lot
Speaker 7: of this had to do with the failure.
Speaker 2: You say it's over for Gavin Newsom, but how much
Speaker 2: do you want to bet they'll put in, you know,
Speaker 2: Kamala Harris, after her, after him brother.
Speaker 7: I hope not. I hope not.
Speaker 9: Kire's really, you know, has really.
Speaker 7: Been focused on Calllifornia politics. With this, in my opinion,
Speaker 7: I truly believe that there has been a revival in America.
Speaker 7: People are waking up politically. We might not all agree
Speaker 7: on how to do things the same way, but one
Speaker 7: thing that we know for certain human beings understand common sense.
Speaker 7: And we have seen what the lack of common sense
Speaker 7: has done to our nation from California all the way
Speaker 7: to New York City and the devastation it's done to
Speaker 7: individual families. And believe me, people are feeling this in
Speaker 7: their pocketbook. And you're right, Sean, it shouldn't have taken
Speaker 7: to Vane Summers who I love to seven years to
Speaker 7: rebuild her homes. It should have taken only, you know,
Speaker 7: four to seven weeks to rebuild her home. But she
Speaker 7: couldn't do it because she was struggling against a system
Speaker 7: that is working against her, a system that is working
Speaker 7: against the American people, to the point where not only
Speaker 7: are the people of California devastated, but we still have
Speaker 7: people in North Carolina that can't even rebuild their homes,
Speaker 7: that can't even rebuild their laws, that lost the loved ones,
Speaker 7: that are freezing cold, they're living in campers right now.
Speaker 7: This is not the America that we should be. And
Speaker 7: thank god January twentieth is just around the corner, because
Speaker 7: we need a new executive branch. And if the people
Speaker 7: of California know what's set for them, they're going to
Speaker 7: vote all of these idiots and these mafia leaders like
Speaker 7: kre call them out and put people in that deserve
Speaker 7: to be there and people that actually care about their constituents.
Speaker 2: I mean, did anybody know anything about Mayor bass Kira
Speaker 2: before they elected her. I mean, I could not believe
Speaker 2: she's being questioned when she gets back from Ghana. I
Speaker 2: wouldn't even have the respect to address the people that
Speaker 2: are losing their homes and droves and offer just condolences
Speaker 2: and sympathy and pledging to get the water that the
Speaker 2: firemen need to put out the fires. I mean, she
Speaker 2: did nothing, She wouldn't say a word, and then gave
Speaker 2: out the wrong website. You go to the url. I mean,
Speaker 2: it's unbelievable. We're just running out of time. I do
Speaker 2: appreciate both of you, and you have a perspective that
Speaker 2: I think people need to hear, having you know, lived
Speaker 2: out there and living out there.
Speaker 3: It's it's sad.
Speaker 2: They're destroying one of the most picturesque, nicest states in
Speaker 2: the entire country, and it's gone, and I don't see
Speaker 2: any hope for it in the future anyway. Sarah, thank you, Kira,
Speaker 2: thank you. Eight hundred and nine point one. Seawan, if
Speaker 2: you want to be a part of the program.

Speaker 2: extra five percent off Rapid Radios dot Com. I thought
Speaker 2: it was pretty funny in this sense. I don't think
Speaker 2: funerals are funny, but the fact that you know, you
Speaker 2: had all these former presidents in one room and the
Speaker 2: public interactions with them are interesting. And the one interaction
Speaker 2: that got the most play was Donald Trump, who's sitting
Speaker 2: next to Malania to his left and Varack Obama to
Speaker 2: his right, and then in front of them, Kamala Harris
Speaker 2: was with Dougie. But they're chumming it up, and I'm
Speaker 2: just thinking about Oh Obama that thinks that Trump is
Speaker 2: a fascist. You know, let all the rhetoric go Obama
Speaker 2: responsible for the coup to push Joe out and put
Speaker 2: Kamala in. I bet everything I have that he coordinated
Speaker 2: with Nancy Pelosi, Chucky Schumer, George Clooney and company. And
Speaker 2: thankfully America rejected all this. You know, but how do
Speaker 2: you go from calling somebody a fascist, racist, nazi, lunatic,
Speaker 2: whatever you're calling them, to all of a sudden the
Speaker 2: chumming it up in the pews of a church at
Speaker 2: a funeral. The Daily Show actually made fun of it.
Speaker 2: Here's how they did.
Speaker 8: It, Although there was one surprising moment of chemistry.
Speaker 6: During Carter's funeral, President elect Trump chatted with former president
Speaker 6: Barack Obama. Oh, of course, we don't know what they discussed,
Speaker 6: but the interaction seemed friendly, with both presidents talking and
Speaker 6: occasionally smiling.
Speaker 8: Oooh, someone's trying to make elon jelly. It's a little
Speaker 8: weird for Obama though, right to go from this guy
Speaker 8: is future Hitler to oh Man a cool story future Hitler.
Speaker 8: And by the way, Kamalin noticed, Ooh, I don't know
Speaker 8: if that funeral music was for Carter or for her.
Speaker 8: Kamala did the look that I do when someone behind
Speaker 8: me at the movie theater is talking. I didn't pay
Speaker 8: twenty bucks to hear you sing defying gravity. Also, this
Speaker 8: is conclave.
Speaker 3: Why are you.
Speaker 8: Singing defying gravity? She did not seem happy to be
Speaker 8: sitting that close to Donald Trump. She basically spent the
Speaker 8: rest of the day flipping through that funeral program like
Speaker 8: she was going to find forty four electoral votes.
Speaker 2: In ouch and that was pretty funny. Donald Trump, by
Speaker 2: the way, did pledge to give us transparency on those
Speaker 2: mystery drones that we talked a lot about before the holiday.
Speaker 3: Listen, do you have any idea whatever happened to the drones?
Speaker 3: What happened to drones?
Speaker 5: Well, you said that you knew that.
Speaker 3: You thought the government knew what was happening with these
Speaker 3: drones over New Jersey. There were some by Pedminson.
Speaker 7: I don't know.
Speaker 1: They're over Bedminster a lot, So I can't imagine.
Speaker 3: I'm going to give you a report on drones.
Speaker 7: About one day into the administration, because I think it's
Speaker 7: ridiculous that they're.
Speaker 5: Not telling you about what's going.
Speaker 4: On with the drones.
Speaker 5: And it's not only with me.
Speaker 1: Glenn was telling me today that in Virginia they have
Speaker 1: drones all.
Speaker 8: Over the place too, and nobody's reporting it.
Speaker 2: Unbelievable. All right, let's get to our busy phones eight
Speaker 2: hundred and ninety four one, Seawan. If you want to
Speaker 2: be a part of the program, let's say how to Dustin.
Speaker 2: He's in North Carolina. We love our friends in North Carolina.
Speaker 2: We feel bad for the people of FEMA kicking people
Speaker 2: out if they didn't respond to their text, their phone
Speaker 2: call or email. This very day today was the deadline.
Speaker 2: Why they're not making a greater effort to contact every
Speaker 2: family that had been displaced, thousands of them is incomprehensible
Speaker 2: to me. Anyway, Dustin, glad you called. What's on your mind?
Speaker 4: Oh? Thank you for having me, Sean. I want to
Speaker 4: I want to start off by Sam. First off, I
Speaker 4: hate the way they've treated uh, they've treated Western Rokill.
Speaker 4: I'm in the foothills and we've already got two inches.
Speaker 4: I hate it for those people that are intense right now.
Speaker 4: The second off. I want you to know I'm a
Speaker 4: two time Obama voter. I had a friend tell me, uh,
Speaker 4: tell me to start research on both sides. We'll started
Speaker 4: listening to you, the Clay and Bucks and the Charlie Kirks,
Speaker 4: and man, you all changed my life. So I want
Speaker 4: to thank you for that, thank you for saving our country. Well, my, my,
Speaker 4: my misstatement is I'm really just curious, Sean. I really
Speaker 4: just want to.
Speaker 3: Know who are we to hold the brunt.
Speaker 4: Of the blame for with those fires in California? Is it?
Speaker 4: Is it the governor? Is it Governor Newsom? Is it
Speaker 4: the mayor? Is it is it Joe Biden who holds
Speaker 4: the brunt of blame for the lack of preparation that
Speaker 4: they own out there? You know?
Speaker 2: Well, I mean I think it's government in general. It's
Speaker 2: local state government, federal government allowing this, you know, all
Speaker 2: these moneys to be allocated for these ridiculous green projects
Speaker 2: out in California, and yet they're they're missing the fundamentals
Speaker 2: and ignoring the science that is, wildfire fires are a
Speaker 2: reality that they face pretty much year in and year
Speaker 2: out out there, and they're doing nothing, you know, to
Speaker 2: put in measures the science that would prevent them from
Speaker 2: getting this far out of control. I mean, it's basic
Speaker 2: stuff to me. You have Santa Ana wins, they're predictable.
Speaker 2: You have wildfires that's predictable. You have the science of forestry,
Speaker 2: you remove the brush, you have controlled burns. They're not
Speaker 2: doing any of these things. You have reservoirs that are
Speaker 2: full that can be tapped by the fire department. The
Speaker 2: one in Pacific Palisades was empty. And the amount of
Speaker 2: money wasted on you know, social equity programs and green
Speaker 2: programs out there is insane. I went through the budget
Speaker 2: numbers last night. It's it's absolutely out of control. And
Speaker 2: they have they have no qualms about it.
Speaker 4: Yes, sir, I got another question. Do you feel like
Speaker 4: they would jump on FEMA, or look remote, jump on
Speaker 4: helping these people in California faster than they did, are
Speaker 4: more reactive than they did in Carolina because it's a
Speaker 4: liberal state.
Speaker 2: Probably, I mean, although you know, at some point the
Speaker 2: state's got to bear the Brunner responsibility. Very very telling
Speaker 2: that the insurance companies pulled out of insuring these homes,
Speaker 2: and they did it because they saw the handwriting was
Speaker 2: on the wall and they knew the state was not
Speaker 2: up to the task of handling the predictable wildfires, so
Speaker 2: as a result, they stopped insuring people out there, and
Speaker 2: then they have this state insurance which probably is going
Speaker 2: to end up being pretty much worthless. And I hate
Speaker 2: to tell you, buckle up. A lot of this money
Speaker 2: is going to end up coming from the federal government.
Speaker 2: Mark my words. We're going to end up paying for this.
Speaker 2: They're in confidence anyway, Dustin, appreciate the call. You have
Speaker 2: a great weekend. Thank you for being with us. Let's
Speaker 2: go to Dennis in California. Dennis, I am sorry for
Speaker 2: all that so many of your fellow Californians are living
Speaker 2: through right now. But I am absolutely disgusted about everything
Speaker 2: that I'm learning about how they've handled this and how
Speaker 2: they didn't prepare for this.
Speaker 5: Yeah, this isn't the first time. I'm quite a bit
Speaker 5: north to LA, but I live in the foothills and
Speaker 5: there's been several large fires in the last ten to
Speaker 5: fifteen years around here, and it's the same thing. You know,
Speaker 5: the environmentals say, you can't burn the brush, you can't
Speaker 5: do this and that, But we can burn a four
Speaker 5: hundred square miles in ten thousand homes, and it's so
Speaker 5: frustrated to live here and watch our taxes and our
Speaker 5: dollar just going in some politicians pocket. It's just it's insane.
Speaker 3: Oh, I mean, this is basic fundamental stuff.
Speaker 5: I can.
Speaker 2: I can, you know, keep regurgitating this all day long,
Speaker 2: and it's not gonna it's not gonna bring these people's
Speaker 2: homes back.
Speaker 1: You know.
Speaker 2: The best case scenario would be they get religion on
Speaker 2: this and maybe reallocate all of these green moneies that
Speaker 2: they're spending out there. Maybe they can take the billions
Speaker 2: they're allocating for their wind turbine projects and making the
Speaker 2: La Port green, and maybe they can use that money
Speaker 2: for fire prevention in the future. It would seem like
Speaker 2: a better use of taxpayer dollars to me, But I
Speaker 2: wouldn't hold my breath.
Speaker 3: Nobody listens to me out there. This is this is
Speaker 3: one of the reasons when I left New York.
Speaker 2: I gave a whole laundry list of reasons why I left,
Speaker 2: and it was the best decision I made. And I
Speaker 2: I was born and raised in New York. Now I've
Speaker 2: lived in five different states. I'm now now six different states,
Speaker 2: and you know, Florida is my permanent home now. And
Speaker 2: I left for all the reasons that so many people
Speaker 2: are leaving New York, New Jersey, Illinois, californ They're leaving
Speaker 2: for legitimate reasons, and this is just one of them. Anyway,
Speaker 2: Dennis hanging there, buddy, I appreciate it. David in Arizona.
Speaker 2: What's up, David?
Speaker 3: How are you?
Speaker 4: Yeah?
Speaker 1: I'm doing fine, Sean, let's see here. A good afternoon
Speaker 1: to you and Linda. You know, I'm giving a call.
Speaker 1: It sounds like I'm just repeating myself because everybody has
Speaker 1: already said everything here. I am a conservative native San Franciscan.
Speaker 1: We also call ourselves nor Cal Hillbillies because nor Cal
Speaker 1: and Southern California. You know, they've been trying to split
Speaker 1: that for years. Has gone on and off probably one
Speaker 1: hundred plus times. But I'm calling because I left California
Speaker 1: in twenty sixteen, had had enough.
Speaker 5: I've been to a.
Speaker 1: Number of states. I've lived out in the Mendocino County
Speaker 1: in California for a number of years, so I have
Speaker 1: a pretty good idea of what's going on at least
Speaker 1: in norcl Southern Cal. I can't really tell you about,
Speaker 1: but what has happened with the government in California. It
Speaker 1: has become corrupt from the root to the leaf, and
Speaker 1: something's got to be done about this. I mean, it's
Speaker 1: my number one. My heart goes out to everybody who's
Speaker 1: been affected by these fires. I really feel for you.
Speaker 1: We have similar problems up in northern California, just not
Speaker 1: with the going into that dense a population. So I
Speaker 1: really feel for you. Having a reservoir in southern California
Speaker 1: go empty, you would think it's mind blowing, but it's
Speaker 1: at this point it's par for the course. I would
Speaker 1: like President Trump to maybe not mention so much about
Speaker 1: the little fish up in the delta. The little amount
Speaker 1: of water that's keeping the bay the Bay from invading
Speaker 1: the Sacramento River is really just a drop in the
Speaker 1: bucket and the whole picture, you know, I'd like to
Speaker 1: see them really just put the thumbscrews to that greasy,
Speaker 1: gray haired ferret that's run in the country on his policies,
Speaker 1: because everything's so corrupt, overpaid, the taxpayers paying for all
Speaker 1: these people's salaries, and it's you know, friend a friend
Speaker 1: of friend. Let's bring them in from New York, Maryland,
Speaker 1: and there's not a whole lot of Californians in higher
Speaker 1: positions anymore, is what I notice, at least in northern California.
Speaker 1: So it's really incredible. The water wars in California don't
Speaker 1: need to start again. We just got to get to
Speaker 1: a solution. Pour out your glass of wine crashing against
Speaker 1: the wall, and go, okay, let's get down to it,
Speaker 1: you know, let's turn California red again and get something done.
Speaker 1: Cut through all this red. Take you know, reservoirs. There's
Speaker 1: you got the Sierra Nevadas with the reservoirs, plenty of
Speaker 1: places to put them, plenty of places to put them,
Speaker 1: which you don't look at the forestry. Is every one
Speaker 1: of those trees that crowded up there inhales between three
Speaker 1: and four hundred gallons of water a day, and the
Speaker 1: forests are not healthy. You can't even Last time I
Speaker 1: was in trucky going to Sierraville on eighty nine, I
Speaker 1: pulled over. I couldn't even see into the forest. It
Speaker 1: was that thick with brush and trees. You could take
Speaker 1: out five million trees within the Cascade Range and the
Speaker 1: Sierras and you probably wouldn't even notice it. On an
Speaker 1: overhead photo during the nineteen thirties when they first started
Speaker 1: taking the Department of Forestry in the Interior first started
Speaker 1: taking aerial photographs. You could do this was a number
Speaker 1: of years, twenty years ago or so, pre computers. You
Speaker 1: could do overlays and you could see that the forest
Speaker 1: had encroached into the meadow land. They've actually expanded by
Speaker 1: thirty percent over the first photos in the early nineteen thirties.
Speaker 1: The mismanagement of this is incredible. You just got to
Speaker 1: get down to the basically the lowest common denominator. What
Speaker 1: is this? You know, this can has been kicked down
Speaker 1: by governor after governor for years. The water wars go
Speaker 1: back into the eighteen seventies. They you know, Lake Hilaire
Speaker 1: was the largest body of fresh water in central California
Speaker 1: west of the Mississippi. They drained it and.
Speaker 2: That Listen, if you want to make a list of
Speaker 2: everything that you can do wrong in terms of ideology,
Speaker 2: you know, driving, you know, and guiding a situation such
Speaker 2: as we have unfolding here, I mean, check every box.
Speaker 2: Because they did everything wrong, and they spent all the
Speaker 2: money all the wrong ways, and all the money that
Speaker 2: was that should have been spent to prevent things like
Speaker 2: this from happening. Was not spent that they that should
Speaker 2: have been done were never done. The things they don't need.
Speaker 2: They're allocating billions of dollars towards it's it's government run amok.
Speaker 2: I mean, this is what would have happened to the
Speaker 2: country had Kamala Harris won calif So goes California, so
Speaker 2: would have gone America. All right, that's gonna wrap things
Speaker 2: up at today will go through Jan Murshan's ridiculous hearing
Speaker 2: from earlier.
Speaker 3: Today.

Speaker 2: Alan Derschowitz, also Hannity one on one. Harold Ford Junior
Speaker 2: will join us tonight. Joe Kancha, Clay Travis Advr. Hannity
Speaker 2: nine Eastern on Fox. We'll see you tonight, have a
Speaker 2: great weekend. Back here on Monday. Thank you for making
