Speaker 3: All right.

15
00:00:49,800 --> 00:00:54,280
Speaker 1: It's day three of an extraordinary inferno in Los Angeles.

16
00:00:54,320 --> 00:00:57,040
Speaker 1: More questions than answers about what has happened. And I

17
00:00:57,120 --> 00:00:59,560
Speaker 1: want to bring in my amazing cost amazing back right

18
00:00:59,640 --> 00:01:02,440
Speaker 1: into me immediately. Amanda Head has been on the front

19
00:01:02,480 --> 00:01:05,640
Speaker 1: lines of this fire. She's experienced it in real time. Amanda,

20
00:01:05,680 --> 00:01:08,520
Speaker 1: what today's been like? Has there been any improvement since

21
00:01:08,800 --> 00:01:09,280
Speaker 1: last night?

22
00:01:10,440 --> 00:01:10,520
Speaker 2: No?

23
00:01:10,720 --> 00:01:13,319
Speaker 4: In fact, the air quality today is worse than it

24
00:01:13,400 --> 00:01:15,840
Speaker 4: was last night. I don't know if that's because of

25
00:01:15,880 --> 00:01:18,880
Speaker 4: wind conditions. The wind has actually died down in most

26
00:01:18,880 --> 00:01:21,119
Speaker 4: of the city, so maybe it's because the stagnant air

27
00:01:21,280 --> 00:01:24,039
Speaker 4: is just hanging the chemicals and the ashes and such

28
00:01:24,040 --> 00:01:26,640
Speaker 4: in our atmosphere. But I want to get to some

29
00:01:26,760 --> 00:01:29,920
Speaker 4: of the topics that are on my headlines today. First,

30
00:01:29,959 --> 00:01:33,000
Speaker 4: the Senate voted earlier today to advance the Lake and

31
00:01:33,120 --> 00:01:36,520
Speaker 4: Riley Act with a bipartisan vote of eighty four to nine. Obviously,

32
00:01:36,520 --> 00:01:39,000
Speaker 4: that means that a large portion of Senate Democrats voted

33
00:01:39,040 --> 00:01:41,880
Speaker 4: in favor of the bill. So it would seem that

34
00:01:41,880 --> 00:01:44,360
Speaker 4: the Trump effect is in full swing on Capitol Hill

35
00:01:44,400 --> 00:01:47,440
Speaker 4: because the House already passed it earlier this week. So

36
00:01:47,880 --> 00:01:50,640
Speaker 4: now it is on its way to President Biden's desk,

37
00:01:50,680 --> 00:01:53,000
Speaker 4: and he could sign it into law as early as

38
00:01:53,040 --> 00:01:55,120
Speaker 4: his or excuse me, president Trump's desk held signed it

39
00:01:55,120 --> 00:01:58,680
Speaker 4: as early as his inauguration day, of course, on January twentieth. Now,

40
00:01:58,720 --> 00:02:02,600
Speaker 4: the Act mandates strict detention of illegal immigrants charged under

41
00:02:02,600 --> 00:02:06,560
Speaker 4: crimes that as of now might not necessarily require authorities

42
00:02:06,600 --> 00:02:09,760
Speaker 4: to hold them. Moving on now to President Jimmy Carter,

43
00:02:09,880 --> 00:02:13,200
Speaker 4: whose state funeral was held earlier today in Washington, to

44
00:02:13,360 --> 00:02:17,720
Speaker 4: commemorate his legacy, including his humanitarian work across the globe.

45
00:02:17,720 --> 00:02:21,400
Speaker 4: But President Carter wasn't the only topic of conversation because

46
00:02:21,480 --> 00:02:25,720
Speaker 4: President Trump, Vice President Harris, and President Obama were all

47
00:02:25,760 --> 00:02:28,600
Speaker 4: in attendance right in a little clustered together and as

48
00:02:28,600 --> 00:02:31,040
Speaker 4: you can see here on your screen right now, the

49
00:02:31,160 --> 00:02:33,840
Speaker 4: video was the subject of a lot of talk online

50
00:02:33,880 --> 00:02:36,560
Speaker 4: and on social media as Kamala Harris turned around to

51
00:02:36,600 --> 00:02:40,840
Speaker 4: see Presidents Obama and Trump speaking together. And there was

52
00:02:40,880 --> 00:02:44,840
Speaker 4: also this video of President Trump making President Obama laugh,

53
00:02:44,919 --> 00:02:46,560
Speaker 4: And I really wish I could be a fly on

54
00:02:46,600 --> 00:02:48,720
Speaker 4: the wall and know exactly what they were joking about.

55
00:02:49,000 --> 00:02:51,959
Speaker 4: But the bigger observation is this, It really doesn't seem

56
00:02:52,240 --> 00:02:56,040
Speaker 4: like President Obama is that worried about democracy ending as

57
00:02:56,080 --> 00:02:58,160
Speaker 4: a result of President Trump winning the election.

58
00:02:58,320 --> 00:02:59,000
Speaker 3: Does it? All?

59
00:02:59,080 --> 00:03:01,519
Speaker 4: Right? Let me just get to one more thing about

60
00:03:01,560 --> 00:03:04,359
Speaker 4: the fires here where I am in Los Angeles. Governor

61
00:03:04,400 --> 00:03:08,720
Speaker 4: Gavin Newsom was confronted by an angry resident wondering what

62
00:03:08,840 --> 00:03:12,440
Speaker 4: President Biden and Governor Newsom are doing to help the

63
00:03:12,520 --> 00:03:14,320
Speaker 4: victims of the fire. And you are not going to

64
00:03:14,360 --> 00:03:18,080
Speaker 4: believe his answer. Watch this, Governor, You got a second.

65
00:03:19,240 --> 00:03:19,880
Speaker 1: Governor.

66
00:03:20,000 --> 00:03:23,760
Speaker 4: Governor I live here, Governor, that is my daughter's school.

67
00:03:23,800 --> 00:03:25,600
Speaker 3: Governor, please tell me what you're going to do. But

68
00:03:25,600 --> 00:03:26,840
Speaker 3: I'm not gonna hurt of my promise.

69
00:03:26,880 --> 00:03:30,720
Speaker 2: I'm literally talking to the President right now to specifically

70
00:03:31,160 --> 00:03:31,640
Speaker 2: answer the.

71
00:03:31,680 --> 00:03:33,800
Speaker 3: Question of what we can do for you and your daughter?

72
00:03:33,919 --> 00:03:36,200
Speaker 3: Can I hear it? Can I hear your call? Because

73
00:03:36,280 --> 00:03:41,320
Speaker 3: I don't believe it. I'm sorry, there's literally I've tried

74
00:03:41,320 --> 00:03:43,120
Speaker 3: five times. That's why I'm walking around to make that

75
00:03:43,280 --> 00:03:46,080
Speaker 3: I'm the president not taking your call because it's not

76
00:03:46,200 --> 00:03:48,520
Speaker 3: going through. Why I have to get self service. Let's

77
00:03:48,520 --> 00:03:50,200
Speaker 3: get it, let's get it. I want to be here

78
00:03:50,240 --> 00:03:51,960
Speaker 3: when you call the President. I appreciate it.

79
00:03:52,080 --> 00:03:56,200
Speaker 1: I'm doing that right now, and it's to immediately get reimbursements,

80
00:03:56,280 --> 00:03:59,600
Speaker 1: individual assistance, and to help God with devastating for I'm

81
00:03:59,640 --> 00:04:01,480
Speaker 1: so solid, especially for your daughter.

82
00:04:02,920 --> 00:04:04,280
Speaker 4: I was that lady, I would have said, well, my

83
00:04:04,320 --> 00:04:06,360
Speaker 4: phone has a signal, just calm from my phone. But anyway,

84
00:04:06,480 --> 00:04:09,000
Speaker 4: as calls to President Biden didn't seem to be going through.

85
00:04:09,600 --> 00:04:11,080
Speaker 4: So with that, John, I'm going to turn it back

86
00:04:11,120 --> 00:04:12,920
Speaker 4: over to you to get to our first guest, who

87
00:04:12,960 --> 00:04:14,560
Speaker 4: I'm pretty sure is going to have something to say

88
00:04:14,600 --> 00:04:16,479
Speaker 4: about what we just watched, among other things.

89
00:04:16,640 --> 00:04:19,679
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, listen all the stuff that we did overnight, Amanda.

90
00:04:19,720 --> 00:04:21,560
Speaker 1: We had a story just at all the warnings that

91
00:04:21,640 --> 00:04:25,080
Speaker 1: California's had that it's not really prepared for this increased

92
00:04:25,080 --> 00:04:27,240
Speaker 1: fire threat that it really spreads across the state. There

93
00:04:27,240 --> 00:04:30,200
Speaker 1: have been bigger fires, but nothing more catastrophic than we've

94
00:04:30,200 --> 00:04:31,919
Speaker 1: seen in the last couple of days in La and

95
00:04:32,240 --> 00:04:35,280
Speaker 1: the warnings were all there. It's about politicians not getting

96
00:04:35,279 --> 00:04:37,520
Speaker 1: their job done. We're very lucky to be joined by

97
00:04:37,600 --> 00:04:41,000
Speaker 1: California State Assembleman Bill Slay, who actually is a man

98
00:04:41,040 --> 00:04:43,240
Speaker 1: trying to get things done. The problem is he's the

99
00:04:43,279 --> 00:04:45,880
Speaker 1: Republican Democrats aren't doing a whole lot Assemblement. Good to

100
00:04:45,880 --> 00:04:46,839
Speaker 1: have you on the show today.

101
00:04:47,520 --> 00:04:48,560
Speaker 3: Thank you for having me.

102
00:04:49,360 --> 00:04:51,080
Speaker 1: You've been in the state for a while. You know

103
00:04:51,200 --> 00:04:53,559
Speaker 1: the history of fires. Obviously there have been much larger

104
00:04:53,600 --> 00:04:58,560
Speaker 1: areas affected, but the speed and ferocity and population density

105
00:04:58,560 --> 00:05:01,200
Speaker 1: of this fire is extraor people have been worn for

106
00:05:01,200 --> 00:05:02,680
Speaker 1: a long time. This was coming, didn't they.

107
00:05:03,080 --> 00:05:04,719
Speaker 3: Yeah, let's thinking about natural disasters.

108
00:05:04,720 --> 00:05:07,360
Speaker 2: They are unpredictable, but you know what's predictable is that

109
00:05:07,400 --> 00:05:10,680
Speaker 2: they're going to happen, and so every year we have wildfires,

110
00:05:10,680 --> 00:05:13,280
Speaker 2: so we should be in a constant state of readiness

111
00:05:13,680 --> 00:05:17,720
Speaker 2: and preparation to mitigate the damage and destruction of these fires.

112
00:05:18,400 --> 00:05:20,440
Speaker 3: I laid out a post yesterday.

113
00:05:20,120 --> 00:05:23,800
Speaker 2: Just explaining all the different bills and legislation Republicans have

114
00:05:23,839 --> 00:05:26,760
Speaker 2: tried to push in California to give our firefighters the

115
00:05:26,760 --> 00:05:29,680
Speaker 2: tool to clear out the brush, clear out the dead trees,

116
00:05:30,120 --> 00:05:33,240
Speaker 2: underground power lines, do all the common sense things we

117
00:05:33,279 --> 00:05:35,560
Speaker 2: should be doing to either prevent these fires or make

118
00:05:35,600 --> 00:05:37,520
Speaker 2: sure they're not as big and destructive as they are.

119
00:05:37,920 --> 00:05:40,320
Speaker 2: Every single one of those proposals died in the legislature

120
00:05:40,400 --> 00:05:43,160
Speaker 2: or were vetoed by a Democrat governor, and so this

121
00:05:43,320 --> 00:05:45,960
Speaker 2: idea that there's nothing we could have done is just

122
00:05:46,360 --> 00:05:46,880
Speaker 2: not true.

123
00:05:47,240 --> 00:05:49,440
Speaker 1: Yeah, grateful, And I.

124
00:05:49,360 --> 00:05:51,400
Speaker 4: Want to ask you about the insurance side of things,

125
00:05:51,480 --> 00:05:54,080
Speaker 4: because as I understand it, only about five percent of

126
00:05:54,120 --> 00:05:58,560
Speaker 4: the country is vulnerable to wildfires like this, but a

127
00:05:58,600 --> 00:06:01,560
Speaker 4: huge portion of those, obviously are in southern California, specifically

128
00:06:01,600 --> 00:06:03,479
Speaker 4: Los Angeles, and a lot of people are hating on

129
00:06:03,520 --> 00:06:07,640
Speaker 4: the insurance companies for canceling those policies, But the government,

130
00:06:07,680 --> 00:06:12,520
Speaker 4: the insurance regulators of California, made the state untenable for

131
00:06:12,680 --> 00:06:15,400
Speaker 4: insurance carriers because they weren't going to allow them to

132
00:06:15,480 --> 00:06:17,919
Speaker 4: increase any type of premium for fire policies.

133
00:06:18,279 --> 00:06:18,960
Speaker 3: Is that the case.

134
00:06:19,680 --> 00:06:21,919
Speaker 2: Yeah, this insurance thing's been going on for a while.

135
00:06:22,000 --> 00:06:24,920
Speaker 2: It's very complicated, but look, the bottom line is an

136
00:06:24,960 --> 00:06:26,960
Speaker 2: insurance company is a business and they have to be

137
00:06:27,000 --> 00:06:28,920
Speaker 2: able to take in more money than they pay out.

138
00:06:29,120 --> 00:06:31,680
Speaker 2: That's just how it works. And with the level of

139
00:06:31,760 --> 00:06:34,800
Speaker 2: fires we've been having in the amount of damages, they

140
00:06:34,880 --> 00:06:38,440
Speaker 2: can't afford to keep insuring as many homes as they do.

141
00:06:38,880 --> 00:06:41,480
Speaker 2: So a lot of the carriers have been canceling policies

142
00:06:41,560 --> 00:06:42,480
Speaker 2: or not renewing them.

143
00:06:42,680 --> 00:06:43,880
Speaker 3: So what do the homeowners do.

144
00:06:43,960 --> 00:06:47,039
Speaker 2: Well, they've created this sort of quasi government agency called

145
00:06:47,040 --> 00:06:51,480
Speaker 2: a fair Plan, which is an unfunded insurance policy.

146
00:06:51,520 --> 00:06:52,440
Speaker 3: So you have a piece of.

147
00:06:52,360 --> 00:06:54,960
Speaker 2: Paper that says you're insured, but there's really no money

148
00:06:55,000 --> 00:06:58,080
Speaker 2: in this fund. And now this is the crisis everyone's

149
00:06:58,080 --> 00:06:59,920
Speaker 2: waiting for. We're going to see what happens.

150
00:07:00,080 --> 00:07:02,640
Speaker 3: They say. The estimate loss right now is about fifty

151
00:07:02,640 --> 00:07:03,400
Speaker 3: billion dollars.

152
00:07:03,800 --> 00:07:05,599
Speaker 2: And just so you have an idea, the California budget

153
00:07:05,640 --> 00:07:09,080
Speaker 2: is three hundred billion, so the damage right now estimated

154
00:07:09,200 --> 00:07:10,360
Speaker 2: fifty billion dollars.

155
00:07:10,560 --> 00:07:12,200
Speaker 3: They don't have that money in that fund.

156
00:07:12,520 --> 00:07:14,720
Speaker 2: And what the insurance carriers are really worried about is

157
00:07:14,760 --> 00:07:17,640
Speaker 2: that they're going to get assessed. You get assessed based

158
00:07:17,640 --> 00:07:19,560
Speaker 2: on your market share. So the government's going to look

159
00:07:19,560 --> 00:07:22,080
Speaker 2: to the insurance companies and say, you have twenty percent

160
00:07:22,160 --> 00:07:24,680
Speaker 2: market share, you have to pitch in twenty percent into

161
00:07:24,720 --> 00:07:27,880
Speaker 2: this fund. That's why the insurance companies are running out

162
00:07:27,880 --> 00:07:31,720
Speaker 2: of the state of California. It's a big problem, and.

163
00:07:31,360 --> 00:07:33,600
Speaker 3: This is just going to make it worse right now.

164
00:07:33,800 --> 00:07:36,920
Speaker 1: It's just extraordinary, all right. So there are the big

165
00:07:36,960 --> 00:07:39,440
Speaker 1: issues of that clearing the brush. One of the things

166
00:07:39,480 --> 00:07:41,880
Speaker 1: I think shocked people yesterday was the lack of water

167
00:07:41,920 --> 00:07:44,320
Speaker 1: availability at three in the morning, when most people aren't

168
00:07:44,320 --> 00:07:46,320
Speaker 1: turning on the water, but there wasn't even enough water

169
00:07:46,360 --> 00:07:48,840
Speaker 1: in the hydrants. This has been a long term concern.

170
00:07:48,880 --> 00:07:50,840
Speaker 1: Tell us what you know about the lack of water

171
00:07:50,840 --> 00:07:52,040
Speaker 1: supply in southern California.

172
00:07:52,240 --> 00:07:55,400
Speaker 2: Yeah, this really goes back to the extreme environmental policies

173
00:07:55,440 --> 00:07:56,960
Speaker 2: in the state of California. And I hate to even

174
00:07:57,000 --> 00:07:59,600
Speaker 2: call them environmentalists because these policies are not good for

175
00:07:59,600 --> 00:08:00,000
Speaker 2: the environment.

176
00:08:00,120 --> 00:08:01,200
Speaker 3: Look what's happening now.

177
00:08:01,280 --> 00:08:03,680
Speaker 2: You got all the toxins in the air, the carbon,

178
00:08:04,000 --> 00:08:06,560
Speaker 2: the animals that are being killed, so they're not good

179
00:08:06,600 --> 00:08:09,360
Speaker 2: for the environment. But the voters have said over and

180
00:08:09,400 --> 00:08:12,040
Speaker 2: over again they want a fund water storage. Ten years ago,

181
00:08:12,080 --> 00:08:15,360
Speaker 2: we passed a six billion dollar bond to build more

182
00:08:15,400 --> 00:08:17,400
Speaker 2: water storage in the state of California.

183
00:08:17,640 --> 00:08:21,000
Speaker 3: As of today, they've built zero. It's been ten years.

184
00:08:21,040 --> 00:08:24,160
Speaker 2: They haven't built a single project because the governor's office

185
00:08:24,200 --> 00:08:27,840
Speaker 2: won't issue the permits for construction. He's beholden to the extreme,

186
00:08:27,920 --> 00:08:30,880
Speaker 2: radical environmentalists. It's the same thing we try to do

187
00:08:30,960 --> 00:08:34,719
Speaker 2: a desalinization plant on the ocean. I mean, every civilized

188
00:08:34,720 --> 00:08:37,840
Speaker 2: country on the ocean has desalinization plants and the Coastal

189
00:08:37,840 --> 00:08:39,679
Speaker 2: Commission refuse the application.

190
00:08:40,040 --> 00:08:42,679
Speaker 3: So that's what we're up against in the state of California.

191
00:08:42,960 --> 00:08:46,320
Speaker 2: It's the REGs, it's the extreme environmentalists that will not

192
00:08:46,480 --> 00:08:49,400
Speaker 2: let us develop or upgrade the infrastructure.

193
00:08:49,600 --> 00:08:51,600
Speaker 3: And then you have a legislature that does.

194
00:08:51,480 --> 00:08:56,839
Speaker 2: Not prioritize infrastructure or wildfire prevention. The governor cut wildfire

195
00:08:57,280 --> 00:09:00,400
Speaker 2: prevention by eighty percent in this last budget. We went

196
00:09:00,400 --> 00:09:03,480
Speaker 2: from nine hundred million a year down a two hundred million,

197
00:09:03,920 --> 00:09:07,080
Speaker 2: and just for comparison, we spend five billion on illegal

198
00:09:07,120 --> 00:09:10,120
Speaker 2: immigrant healthcare in the state of California and two hundred

199
00:09:10,160 --> 00:09:13,720
Speaker 2: million on wildfire prevention. That's the priorities of Democrat Party.

200
00:09:13,920 --> 00:09:16,720
Speaker 3: Wow. Do you think that will change?

201
00:09:16,720 --> 00:09:19,480
Speaker 4: Because I know you represent Riverside County, but you bump

202
00:09:19,600 --> 00:09:21,680
Speaker 4: right up next to Los Angeles County and.

203
00:09:21,880 --> 00:09:22,959
Speaker 3: Very very blue area.

204
00:09:23,000 --> 00:09:26,480
Speaker 4: Do you anticipate that something like this might shift that.

205
00:09:27,920 --> 00:09:30,520
Speaker 2: I really hope so, because if watching your community get

206
00:09:30,600 --> 00:09:33,439
Speaker 2: burned down is not an indictment of the leadership of

207
00:09:33,480 --> 00:09:36,760
Speaker 2: the Democrats and that party, then what will be. And

208
00:09:37,000 --> 00:09:39,160
Speaker 2: the Democrats are very good at deflecting blame.

209
00:09:39,200 --> 00:09:40,600
Speaker 3: They're going to blame, you know.

210
00:09:40,679 --> 00:09:43,520
Speaker 2: I'm sure they'll blame Trump, and they'll blame the climate

211
00:09:43,640 --> 00:09:46,719
Speaker 2: change gods or all this other stuff, anything but themselves.

212
00:09:46,760 --> 00:09:49,080
Speaker 2: But it's really important that people like me and other

213
00:09:49,200 --> 00:09:52,040
Speaker 2: elected leaders go on record and explain to the American

214
00:09:52,040 --> 00:09:55,000
Speaker 2: people and the people of California who is responsible for

215
00:09:55,040 --> 00:09:56,880
Speaker 2: this and what they could have done differently. There has

216
00:09:56,920 --> 00:09:59,720
Speaker 2: to be accountability for there to be changed. And I

217
00:09:59,760 --> 00:10:02,120
Speaker 2: hope these people a lot we're going to get displaced.

218
00:10:02,200 --> 00:10:03,600
Speaker 2: We'll see where they end up, but I hope they

219
00:10:03,600 --> 00:10:06,360
Speaker 2: don't take the same policies with them.

220
00:10:06,960 --> 00:10:09,280
Speaker 1: So we talked about the state in the city itself.

221
00:10:09,880 --> 00:10:14,040
Speaker 1: Mayor Bass cutting fire funds just weeks before this fire

222
00:10:14,120 --> 00:10:16,360
Speaker 1: chief issuing a warning beforehand we might not be able

223
00:10:16,360 --> 00:10:18,760
Speaker 1: to respond to a big incident with this sort of

224
00:10:18,800 --> 00:10:21,920
Speaker 1: budget cut. There's been a problem with fire hydrants constantly

225
00:10:21,960 --> 00:10:24,840
Speaker 1: being stolen and used for scrap metal so people can

226
00:10:24,920 --> 00:10:27,559
Speaker 1: make ends meet in the city. And then she's out

227
00:10:27,600 --> 00:10:30,320
Speaker 1: of town in Africa when the big Santa Ana wins

228
00:10:30,320 --> 00:10:33,280
Speaker 1: and the fires come in. How big a moment is

229
00:10:33,320 --> 00:10:35,400
Speaker 1: this for her early in her mayorship.

230
00:10:36,120 --> 00:10:38,800
Speaker 2: I think she needs to step down. It's totally inexcusable

231
00:10:38,840 --> 00:10:42,520
Speaker 2: and unconscionable. We knew this wind event was coming. Hurricane

232
00:10:42,600 --> 00:10:44,800
Speaker 2: level wins. When there's a hurricane coming to the state

233
00:10:44,840 --> 00:10:47,760
Speaker 2: of Florida, you don't see Ron DeSantis booking it out

234
00:10:47,800 --> 00:10:51,040
Speaker 2: of the country. He's moving assets, he's moving personnel, they're

235
00:10:51,040 --> 00:10:54,520
Speaker 2: making plans, they're warning the public, they're educating the public

236
00:10:54,559 --> 00:10:55,120
Speaker 2: and what to do.

237
00:10:55,559 --> 00:10:56,480
Speaker 3: They didn't do any of that.

238
00:10:56,640 --> 00:10:58,679
Speaker 2: She left to Africa, and she didn't even come back

239
00:10:58,800 --> 00:11:00,439
Speaker 2: till after the fires ready started.

240
00:11:00,920 --> 00:11:03,440
Speaker 3: So that's not a leader. That's not how leaders act.

241
00:11:03,480 --> 00:11:06,239
Speaker 2: As she comes back and she just stares into oblivion

242
00:11:06,280 --> 00:11:07,840
Speaker 2: into a camera and won't say anything.

243
00:11:08,240 --> 00:11:11,520
Speaker 3: That's not leadership. She's got to go mayor. Mayor.

244
00:11:11,600 --> 00:11:14,120
Speaker 2: The guy that ran for mayor against her, Rick Caruso

245
00:11:14,280 --> 00:11:16,880
Speaker 2: is a businessman, a developer. He's been very front center

246
00:11:16,920 --> 00:11:19,080
Speaker 2: on this. He would have been a much better choice

247
00:11:19,080 --> 00:11:23,800
Speaker 2: from mayor than Karen Bass. She needs to go absolutely.

248
00:11:24,440 --> 00:11:27,640
Speaker 4: You mentioned the fact that they are blaming climate change

249
00:11:28,040 --> 00:11:34,440
Speaker 4: on this, but California employs more climate change legislation whatever

250
00:11:34,480 --> 00:11:36,600
Speaker 4: they think that does, or ever they think that means,

251
00:11:36,840 --> 00:11:39,720
Speaker 4: than any other state. So what would they have done differently?

252
00:11:39,760 --> 00:11:42,520
Speaker 4: What should have they done differently in their eyes to

253
00:11:42,600 --> 00:11:43,160
Speaker 4: prevent this?

254
00:11:44,040 --> 00:11:45,880
Speaker 3: So? Can I tell you something funny? I ran a

255
00:11:45,880 --> 00:11:46,760
Speaker 3: bill last year.

256
00:11:47,520 --> 00:11:50,800
Speaker 2: We charged these carbon taxes, so we charge businesses that

257
00:11:50,960 --> 00:11:53,480
Speaker 2: produce carbon, and then we take that money. We're supposed

258
00:11:53,480 --> 00:11:56,280
Speaker 2: to use that on efforts to mitigate carbon You know

259
00:11:56,320 --> 00:11:59,920
Speaker 2: what they don't consider in the scoping plan is wildfire.

260
00:12:00,559 --> 00:12:01,480
Speaker 3: So I did a bill.

261
00:12:01,600 --> 00:12:04,560
Speaker 2: I said, okay, well, since you're worried about lowering carbon emissions,

262
00:12:04,720 --> 00:12:07,640
Speaker 2: let's make sure wildfires get most of the money to

263
00:12:07,679 --> 00:12:10,440
Speaker 2: prevent them. And they said, well those aren't that's not

264
00:12:10,559 --> 00:12:12,720
Speaker 2: man made, so we don't count wildfires.

265
00:12:13,200 --> 00:12:14,600
Speaker 3: This is the logic.

266
00:12:14,280 --> 00:12:16,280
Speaker 2: And the stupidity here. I can't even tell you the

267
00:12:16,320 --> 00:12:18,319
Speaker 2: wildfires we had in one year where we had a

268
00:12:18,360 --> 00:12:22,240
Speaker 2: bunch of fires wiped out the carbon that we saved

269
00:12:22,320 --> 00:12:26,800
Speaker 2: or prevented over the last twenty years. So these people

270
00:12:26,800 --> 00:12:30,200
Speaker 2: are actually it's not even dumb. It's almost like a

271
00:12:30,240 --> 00:12:33,360
Speaker 2: religious cult or ideology, and they just will not subject

272
00:12:33,400 --> 00:12:35,120
Speaker 2: themselves to common sense or logic.

273
00:12:35,480 --> 00:12:37,360
Speaker 3: I don't know how to explain it.

274
00:12:37,400 --> 00:12:40,840
Speaker 1: Is this a moment where Republicans can take offense at

275
00:12:40,840 --> 00:12:43,599
Speaker 1: the state where obviously they've been making good gains the

276
00:12:43,679 --> 00:12:45,679
Speaker 1: last few years. That's a really important thing. But is

277
00:12:45,720 --> 00:12:47,199
Speaker 1: this a moment where people say, you know, we just

278
00:12:47,200 --> 00:12:49,520
Speaker 1: got to try something different, We're done with the Democrat cult.

279
00:12:50,520 --> 00:12:52,520
Speaker 3: Yeah, if the Republicans know how to seize it.

280
00:12:52,600 --> 00:12:54,800
Speaker 2: I mean, look, I'm up here, I'm one of twenty

281
00:12:54,840 --> 00:12:58,360
Speaker 2: Republicans enough to tell you a lot of Republicans are

282
00:12:58,400 --> 00:13:00,679
Speaker 2: comfortable with the status quo and they want to just

283
00:13:00,840 --> 00:13:03,200
Speaker 2: get re elected and go to dinner with the lobbyist

284
00:13:03,240 --> 00:13:04,080
Speaker 2: and go on the trips.

285
00:13:04,400 --> 00:13:05,520
Speaker 3: And that's not what it's about.

286
00:13:05,559 --> 00:13:09,800
Speaker 2: And look, winning against Democrat party it's ugly, it's vicious.

287
00:13:09,920 --> 00:13:12,280
Speaker 2: You got to fight, and a lot of people don't

288
00:13:12,320 --> 00:13:14,800
Speaker 2: have the stomach for it. But I'm committed. I had

289
00:13:14,800 --> 00:13:17,000
Speaker 2: in my county. We picked up two legislative seats this

290
00:13:17,080 --> 00:13:19,120
Speaker 2: last cycle. It's the first time we've done that in

291
00:13:19,160 --> 00:13:22,319
Speaker 2: twenty years. And we're hitting hard on paranal rights, We're

292
00:13:22,360 --> 00:13:25,360
Speaker 2: hitting hard on what with blue collar workers. We need

293
00:13:25,400 --> 00:13:27,840
Speaker 2: to go to these constituents that Republicans aren't used to

294
00:13:27,880 --> 00:13:30,800
Speaker 2: in a common They're not accustomed to speaking to and

295
00:13:30,920 --> 00:13:33,400
Speaker 2: talking to them, and they got to start ignoring the

296
00:13:33,559 --> 00:13:37,440
Speaker 2: establishment class and the establishment consultants who give nothing but

297
00:13:37,600 --> 00:13:38,319
Speaker 2: terrible advice.

298
00:13:38,760 --> 00:13:42,360
Speaker 3: I've dubbed them professional losers a lot of times.

299
00:13:42,360 --> 00:13:44,120
Speaker 1: When I talk to people in the Conservative they say

300
00:13:44,240 --> 00:13:47,439
Speaker 1: all common sense is then in California, you prove them wrong. Tonight,

301
00:13:47,480 --> 00:13:49,560
Speaker 1: descendbly Man. You've got a great dose of it. We

302
00:13:49,600 --> 00:13:51,160
Speaker 1: need to get more of it throughout that state. What

303
00:13:51,200 --> 00:13:52,559
Speaker 1: a great honor to have you on the show.

304
00:13:52,400 --> 00:13:54,800
Speaker 3: Tay, thanks for joining us, Thank you anytime.

305
00:13:54,880 --> 00:13:57,120
Speaker 1: Yeah, that was great, What a great interview. Wow, got

306
00:13:57,160 --> 00:13:58,480
Speaker 1: so many things to think about it. Just think about

307
00:13:58,520 --> 00:14:02,040
Speaker 1: the statistics Segers rolled up is extraordinary, all right, coming up.

308
00:14:02,040 --> 00:14:03,920
Speaker 1: The state of New York seems determined to carry out

309
00:14:03,960 --> 00:14:06,920
Speaker 1: President electrump sentencing. Will a late decision by the Supreme

310
00:14:06,920 --> 00:14:09,600
Speaker 1: Court possibly stop it. We'll discuss that next By definitely,

311
00:14:09,600 --> 00:14:17,320
Speaker 1: he's messaging, Hey, America, you've heard me talking about a

312
00:14:17,360 --> 00:14:20,560
Speaker 1: despicable crime that the FBI calls house stealing. It's title fraud,

313
00:14:20,680 --> 00:14:23,680
Speaker 1: and it's a growing crime becoming a very serious problem

314
00:14:23,720 --> 00:14:27,080
