Speaker 1: It's John Cobelt Radio at John Cobelt Radio. Excuse me, now,

11
00:00:30,440 --> 00:00:33,040
Speaker 1: we told you the other day we had Howard. We

12
00:00:33,080 --> 00:00:37,080
Speaker 1: did Jarvis on, he's been dead. We met John goopaul

13
00:00:37,159 --> 00:00:40,000
Speaker 1: On from the Howard Jarvis Taxpayers Association. Boy, if we

14
00:00:40,040 --> 00:00:43,879
Speaker 1: get Award Jarvis on, huh, that'd be a show. We

15
00:00:43,920 --> 00:00:47,600
Speaker 1: had John coupaul on from the Howard Jarvis Association, and

16
00:00:48,080 --> 00:00:51,560
Speaker 1: he told us about this big deal court case that's

17
00:00:51,600 --> 00:00:55,840
Speaker 1: gonna that's being heard by the California Supreme Court, and

18
00:00:56,120 --> 00:00:59,200
Speaker 1: it's a proposition that's supposed to be on the ballot

19
00:00:59,240 --> 00:01:03,440
Speaker 1: in November, which would give the public the final say

20
00:01:03,600 --> 00:01:10,720
Speaker 1: on statewide tax increases, among other things, and the right

21
00:01:10,760 --> 00:01:13,319
Speaker 1: Now you know the legislature has a two thirds majority

22
00:01:13,800 --> 00:01:18,280
Speaker 1: plus plus plus, and you have Governor news them and

23
00:01:18,319 --> 00:01:20,240
Speaker 1: they can pass any taxes they want. They can pass

24
00:01:20,280 --> 00:01:21,760
Speaker 1: taxes all day and night. We got no way to

25
00:01:21,760 --> 00:01:26,960
Speaker 1: stop them unless this initiative wins in November, and then

26
00:01:27,040 --> 00:01:30,840
Speaker 1: we could stop them by demanding a popular vote on

27
00:01:30,920 --> 00:01:33,280
Speaker 1: the tax and that's how we can defeat it. So

28
00:01:33,400 --> 00:01:37,560
Speaker 1: let's get the Assembly Republican leader James Gallagher on and

29
00:01:37,680 --> 00:01:38,560
Speaker 1: to talk about this.

30
00:01:40,560 --> 00:01:43,479
Speaker 3: James, Yeah, John, how are you doing?

31
00:01:43,520 --> 00:01:43,679
Speaker 2: Good?

32
00:01:43,720 --> 00:01:45,440
Speaker 3: To be with you? And I was just going to say,

33
00:01:45,640 --> 00:01:49,880
Speaker 3: John Koupaul channels the spirit of Howard Jarvis and definitely

34
00:01:49,920 --> 00:01:52,280
Speaker 3: here in the Hall of the Sacramento, but you know

35
00:01:52,360 --> 00:01:55,760
Speaker 3: throughout the state, and I think rightfully you know is

36
00:01:55,800 --> 00:01:58,640
Speaker 3: pointing out that Howard Jarvis would be rolling in his

37
00:01:58,800 --> 00:02:03,920
Speaker 3: grave at what Gavin Newsom and his Democratic cohorts are

38
00:02:03,920 --> 00:02:07,360
Speaker 3: trying to do in taking this initiative off the ballot.

39
00:02:07,520 --> 00:02:09,639
Speaker 1: Now, the hearing was supposed to be this morning. Did

40
00:02:09,639 --> 00:02:12,600
Speaker 1: that happen? They were going to hear orgument.

41
00:02:12,760 --> 00:02:16,520
Speaker 3: Yeah, it was oral arguments. So they argued before the

42
00:02:16,560 --> 00:02:20,240
Speaker 3: Supreme Court today. You know, the governor and his cronies

43
00:02:20,720 --> 00:02:24,040
Speaker 3: arguing that we shouldn't have the right to vote on

44
00:02:24,040 --> 00:02:29,360
Speaker 3: this initiative in November, and of course Howard Jarvis Taxpayers

45
00:02:29,400 --> 00:02:32,600
Speaker 3: Association and others, their attorneys arguing that, hey, you know

46
00:02:32,639 --> 00:02:36,360
Speaker 3: that this is already qualified. People have signed, you know,

47
00:02:36,400 --> 00:02:38,680
Speaker 3: the petition to put this on the ballot, and it

48
00:02:38,720 --> 00:02:40,600
Speaker 3: needs to go on and them the ballot.

49
00:02:41,080 --> 00:02:41,400
Speaker 2: Yeah.

50
00:02:41,440 --> 00:02:46,120
Speaker 1: So Newsom's crowd is claiming this is unconstitutional, and I

51
00:02:46,200 --> 00:02:50,880
Speaker 1: know we had John Coupaul who completely dismissed that that concept.

52
00:02:50,960 --> 00:02:52,280
Speaker 2: Of course, it's constitutional.

53
00:02:52,280 --> 00:02:56,239
Speaker 1: Of course the public can revise something like this and

54
00:02:56,560 --> 00:02:59,720
Speaker 1: demand to vote on taxes. I'm sure. I know we're

55
00:02:59,760 --> 00:03:02,960
Speaker 1: used to stand. Are you aware of how the hearing

56
00:03:03,160 --> 00:03:06,600
Speaker 1: turned out, if the judges indicated sympathy to one side

57
00:03:06,680 --> 00:03:07,040
Speaker 1: or the other.

58
00:03:08,880 --> 00:03:11,360
Speaker 3: I've just heard about it. I haven't actually watched the

59
00:03:11,440 --> 00:03:15,320
Speaker 3: arguments yet, but some of the feedback that I've gotten

60
00:03:15,440 --> 00:03:18,440
Speaker 3: is that they think that perhaps the court, you know,

61
00:03:18,680 --> 00:03:22,360
Speaker 3: is maybe more siding with the people here and that

62
00:03:22,440 --> 00:03:24,360
Speaker 3: this should go on the ballot. I hope that is

63
00:03:24,400 --> 00:03:28,679
Speaker 3: the case. But you know, look, a lot of these

64
00:03:28,960 --> 00:03:33,480
Speaker 3: justices were appointed by Gavin Newsom or Democrats. Uh, and

65
00:03:33,520 --> 00:03:36,840
Speaker 3: it's you know, it is very concerning to many that

66
00:03:36,920 --> 00:03:41,440
Speaker 3: the court may take a very political turn and go

67
00:03:41,560 --> 00:03:44,520
Speaker 3: along with you know, the supermajority of Democrats who don't

68
00:03:44,520 --> 00:03:46,400
Speaker 3: want to see this on the ballot. I hope that,

69
00:03:46,440 --> 00:03:48,080
Speaker 3: I really hope that's not the case. I mean, I

70
00:03:48,080 --> 00:03:50,360
Speaker 3: hope that's not the case, you know, for the status

71
00:03:50,400 --> 00:03:56,000
Speaker 3: of our democracy here in California. And I mean, let's

72
00:03:56,000 --> 00:03:59,040
Speaker 3: be just honest, Gavin Newsom is full of crap. I mean,

73
00:03:59,080 --> 00:04:02,040
Speaker 3: the guy goes out and preaches to us about democracy

74
00:04:02,080 --> 00:04:06,040
Speaker 3: all the time and how he's saving democracy, and then,

75
00:04:06,120 --> 00:04:08,280
Speaker 3: you know, on the other hand, he's trying to deprive

76
00:04:08,360 --> 00:04:10,880
Speaker 3: you of your right to vote on you know, protecting

77
00:04:10,880 --> 00:04:14,520
Speaker 3: yourself against higher tax increases in the state. On the

78
00:04:14,600 --> 00:04:17,680
Speaker 3: other hand, he fast tracks, you know, legislation of the

79
00:04:17,680 --> 00:04:21,880
Speaker 3: floor with seventy two hours. Notice that he's negotiating backdoor

80
00:04:21,960 --> 00:04:25,760
Speaker 3: rooms using non disclosure agreements. You know, you know, this

81
00:04:25,839 --> 00:04:29,240
Speaker 3: is the kind of stuff this guy does in practice

82
00:04:30,160 --> 00:04:32,839
Speaker 3: while he preaches to us about the need for democracy.

83
00:04:34,000 --> 00:04:34,200
Speaker 4: Yeah.

84
00:04:34,240 --> 00:04:38,880
Speaker 1: I can't think of anything that should be more important

85
00:04:38,920 --> 00:04:42,480
Speaker 1: for the public to vote on than deciding how much

86
00:04:42,560 --> 00:04:45,400
Speaker 1: money they can confiscate from us. Because they were already

87
00:04:45,680 --> 00:04:48,920
Speaker 1: the highest tax state in the nation and it gets

88
00:04:48,960 --> 00:04:52,720
Speaker 1: worse and worse, and all we're asking is the option,

89
00:04:53,000 --> 00:04:54,159
Speaker 1: but to stop to it.

90
00:04:54,000 --> 00:04:54,680
Speaker 3: Make it stop.

91
00:04:55,040 --> 00:04:55,640
Speaker 2: It doesn't it.

92
00:04:56,000 --> 00:04:57,160
Speaker 3: Pretty to make it stop?

93
00:04:57,440 --> 00:04:58,080
Speaker 2: Yeah, it doesn't.

94
00:04:58,240 --> 00:05:01,160
Speaker 1: It doesn't guarantee that will stop. It just gives us

95
00:05:01,160 --> 00:05:04,120
Speaker 1: the right to vote on it. That's what I don't understand.

96
00:05:05,240 --> 00:05:08,080
Speaker 1: Why can't we vote on stopping this this bloodshed that

97
00:05:08,200 --> 00:05:09,200
Speaker 1: is going on in the state.

98
00:05:10,440 --> 00:05:13,320
Speaker 3: What are they so scared of, you know, with people

99
00:05:13,440 --> 00:05:15,599
Speaker 3: voting right, I mean, I think it's because they know

100
00:05:15,680 --> 00:05:17,560
Speaker 3: in November, I think there's going to be a big,

101
00:05:18,480 --> 00:05:21,039
Speaker 3: you know, pushback. You know, the voters are tired of

102
00:05:21,040 --> 00:05:22,960
Speaker 3: the high cost of California, and they're tired of the

103
00:05:23,000 --> 00:05:26,200
Speaker 3: high taxes, tired of the crime that's gotten out of control,

104
00:05:26,440 --> 00:05:29,440
Speaker 3: you know, the homelessness that you know, Gavin Newsom says

105
00:05:29,480 --> 00:05:31,960
Speaker 3: he's solving at the same time it's increased by you know,

106
00:05:32,000 --> 00:05:36,799
Speaker 3: thirty two percent spending billions of our taxpayer dollars, twenty

107
00:05:36,800 --> 00:05:41,320
Speaker 3: four billion dollars spent on homeless programs that are not working.

108
00:05:41,560 --> 00:05:43,600
Speaker 3: Did you hear and that we're not even.

109
00:05:43,400 --> 00:05:46,679
Speaker 1: Tracking did you hear in La County this just broke

110
00:05:46,720 --> 00:05:52,719
Speaker 1: today that the homeless organizations, all those nonprofits want to

111
00:05:52,920 --> 00:05:55,719
Speaker 1: have four hundred thousand signatures. They're going to put a

112
00:05:55,760 --> 00:05:59,680
Speaker 1: measure on the ballot perhaps in November, to raise a

113
00:05:59,720 --> 00:06:04,120
Speaker 1: half said sales tax for homeless.

114
00:06:04,520 --> 00:06:07,600
Speaker 3: I had not heard that, But doesn't surprise me that

115
00:06:07,640 --> 00:06:11,280
Speaker 3: these guys want more of our taxpayer dollars. You know

116
00:06:11,320 --> 00:06:13,760
Speaker 3: that they've just completely wasted well none of it. And

117
00:06:13,920 --> 00:06:15,679
Speaker 3: we've seen actually encampment increase.

118
00:06:15,960 --> 00:06:19,800
Speaker 1: See when I talk to people, they say, but none

119
00:06:19,839 --> 00:06:23,400
Speaker 1: of this is working. We paid billions of dollars, especially

120
00:06:23,400 --> 00:06:25,479
Speaker 1: in La City and County, billions of dollars in the

121
00:06:25,480 --> 00:06:26,839
Speaker 1: homeless situation got worse.

122
00:06:27,000 --> 00:06:30,000
Speaker 2: It's one thing if it fixed the problem. It hasn't.

123
00:06:30,480 --> 00:06:35,719
Speaker 1: The problem is exacerbated, and they're still asking for more money.

124
00:06:35,760 --> 00:06:39,239
Speaker 3: Exactly. I actually had the chair of the La County

125
00:06:39,320 --> 00:06:42,279
Speaker 3: Board Supervisors in front of me and a hearing just

126
00:06:42,320 --> 00:06:46,480
Speaker 3: a couple of days ago, Lindsay Horbath, and asked her

127
00:06:46,480 --> 00:06:48,200
Speaker 3: a point blank you know, you guys did your own

128
00:06:48,240 --> 00:06:51,120
Speaker 3: audit in La County where you've built, you know, apartments

129
00:06:51,160 --> 00:06:53,760
Speaker 3: for homeless at seven hundred and thirty four thousand dollars

130
00:06:53,839 --> 00:06:56,440
Speaker 3: a unit. And I said, is that a cost effective

131
00:06:56,520 --> 00:06:59,400
Speaker 3: use of your dollars? And she said, you know, absolutely,

132
00:06:59,400 --> 00:07:03,279
Speaker 3: it's not. Well, well that's the problem, but we want

133
00:07:03,279 --> 00:07:05,599
Speaker 3: to continue to spend in this way. Well guess what,

134
00:07:06,000 --> 00:07:08,120
Speaker 3: and you're you're telling us to spend even more money,

135
00:07:08,120 --> 00:07:10,680
Speaker 3: and you want to tax even tax people even more

136
00:07:11,480 --> 00:07:12,680
Speaker 3: for more of this nonsense.

137
00:07:12,880 --> 00:07:15,800
Speaker 1: There's a new there's a new housing development for the

138
00:07:15,840 --> 00:07:18,200
Speaker 1: homeless going up in Santa Monica right now, and the

139
00:07:18,280 --> 00:07:22,520
Speaker 1: last story was that it's costing almost a million dollars

140
00:07:22,560 --> 00:07:24,600
Speaker 1: a unit for this particular project.

141
00:07:26,080 --> 00:07:29,360
Speaker 3: I saw that. Yeah, more of the same. Unbelievable.

142
00:07:29,600 --> 00:07:32,320
Speaker 1: And then they want more taxes or they want to

143
00:07:32,320 --> 00:07:35,400
Speaker 1: borrow more money, and they make exactly the same price

144
00:07:35,560 --> 00:07:38,720
Speaker 1: promises over and over and there is no oversight. I mean,

145
00:07:38,840 --> 00:07:42,000
Speaker 1: I mean, I couldn't believe that, you know, I was it.

146
00:07:42,120 --> 00:07:47,040
Speaker 1: The state auditor said that there's there's hardly any accounting

147
00:07:47,360 --> 00:07:49,840
Speaker 1: for the billions of dollars the state has spent for

148
00:07:49,880 --> 00:07:51,720
Speaker 1: the last seven years.

149
00:07:52,880 --> 00:07:54,480
Speaker 3: And then when we asked them for data in the

150
00:07:54,520 --> 00:07:57,840
Speaker 3: same hearings, this happened, you know, two days ago, in

151
00:07:57,920 --> 00:08:00,800
Speaker 3: this same hearing, we asked them, hey, do you have

152
00:08:00,840 --> 00:08:02,960
Speaker 3: any data you can report to us today? Like we're

153
00:08:03,000 --> 00:08:05,040
Speaker 3: working on that, we should have something in the next

154
00:08:05,040 --> 00:08:09,040
Speaker 3: few weeks, you know, and we're going look the audit's

155
00:08:09,040 --> 00:08:11,640
Speaker 3: already shown that you have no data to back up.

156
00:08:12,160 --> 00:08:13,880
Speaker 3: You know, it wasn't even collected.

157
00:08:14,160 --> 00:08:14,320
Speaker 2: You know.

158
00:08:14,800 --> 00:08:18,000
Speaker 3: It's it's impossibly even track how effective the prop these

159
00:08:18,040 --> 00:08:22,040
Speaker 3: product programs have been because we simply did not even

160
00:08:22,080 --> 00:08:22,840
Speaker 3: collect the data.

161
00:08:23,000 --> 00:08:25,440
Speaker 1: They send fat checks to the nonprofits and that's it.

162
00:08:25,480 --> 00:08:28,040
Speaker 1: That's the last we hear of the money and nobody's

163
00:08:28,080 --> 00:08:28,680
Speaker 1: keeping track.

164
00:08:29,320 --> 00:08:30,040
Speaker 2: All right, Well, I.

165
00:08:29,960 --> 00:08:32,000
Speaker 3: Mean I mus to spend more money on it, so no,

166
00:08:32,559 --> 00:08:34,240
Speaker 3: not a chance. And I think the voters are going

167
00:08:34,320 --> 00:08:36,000
Speaker 3: to say that in November, and that's what they're scared of.

168
00:08:36,160 --> 00:08:36,960
Speaker 3: That's what they're scared of.

169
00:08:37,360 --> 00:08:39,400
Speaker 1: Yeah, well we got we got to slam the door

170
00:08:39,440 --> 00:08:42,400
Speaker 1: once and for all. James Gallagher, thank you for coming.

171
00:08:42,200 --> 00:08:45,000
Speaker 3: On, no problem, Thank you, John.

172
00:08:45,160 --> 00:08:49,360
Speaker 1: He's the Assembly Republican leader at Uba City. And uh,

173
00:08:49,640 --> 00:08:52,440
Speaker 1: well he was talking about how how Gavin Dusom is

174
00:08:52,440 --> 00:08:53,160
Speaker 1: full of crap.

175
00:08:53,600 --> 00:08:55,040
Speaker 2: Well there's another story.

176
00:08:55,160 --> 00:08:59,520
Speaker 1: It's in the National Review about Newsome being full of crap,

177
00:08:59,880 --> 00:09:06,120
Speaker 1: intentionally lying making a claim about California tourism being at

178
00:09:06,120 --> 00:09:10,400
Speaker 1: a record high. Yeah, well he left something out which

179
00:09:10,520 --> 00:09:11,640
Speaker 1: changes the whole story.

180
00:09:12,480 --> 00:09:16,840
Speaker 4: You're listening to John Cobelt on demand from KFI AM

181
00:09:16,840 --> 00:09:17,400
Speaker 4: six forty.

182
00:09:18,920 --> 00:09:22,600
Speaker 1: We just had James Gallagher on and he's the Assembly

183
00:09:22,640 --> 00:09:25,760
Speaker 1: Republican leader and we were talking about California Supreme Court

184
00:09:25,840 --> 00:09:29,160
Speaker 1: heard a case today whether in November they can put

185
00:09:29,360 --> 00:09:34,160
Speaker 1: on the ballot a proposition that would give voters the

186
00:09:34,200 --> 00:09:37,440
Speaker 1: final say on statewide tax increases a lot of tax increases.

187
00:09:37,480 --> 00:09:42,000
Speaker 1: Actually it would be, you know, legislature passes, governor signs,

188
00:09:42,040 --> 00:09:45,360
Speaker 1: and then normally it's a tax. Well, this would say

189
00:09:45,880 --> 00:09:48,520
Speaker 1: that the public gets the last say if it makes

190
00:09:48,559 --> 00:09:51,800
Speaker 1: it through the legislature and pass the governor, then we

191
00:09:51,920 --> 00:09:54,560
Speaker 1: get to vote whether the tax takes effect or not.

192
00:09:55,400 --> 00:09:58,240
Speaker 1: And because this just happened, there isn't a lot of

193
00:09:58,320 --> 00:10:04,400
Speaker 1: news information. I do see a story from public radio

194
00:10:05,240 --> 00:10:09,000
Speaker 1: that I've seen two stories, and it looks like judges

195
00:10:09,080 --> 00:10:12,000
Speaker 1: had differing opinions on this. They didn't seem to be

196
00:10:12,040 --> 00:10:17,920
Speaker 1: a consensus either way. The most general comment I saw

197
00:10:18,200 --> 00:10:21,880
Speaker 1: is public radio said that the Supreme Court was pressing

198
00:10:22,840 --> 00:10:29,960
Speaker 1: the attorney who's advocating that the proposition be blocked. All right,

199
00:10:30,000 --> 00:10:35,640
Speaker 1: this is somebody named Prinsing, and he is representing the

200
00:10:35,679 --> 00:10:41,840
Speaker 1: governor and the legislature to stop this proposition. Margaret Prinsing

201
00:10:41,920 --> 00:10:46,160
Speaker 1: is their name, and that this is not good. But

202
00:10:46,200 --> 00:10:49,600
Speaker 1: the court was pressing her on why it should take

203
00:10:49,640 --> 00:10:54,040
Speaker 1: the measure off the ballot now that maybe the voters

204
00:10:54,040 --> 00:10:59,360
Speaker 1: ought a way in see if it passes and then

205
00:10:59,559 --> 00:11:03,000
Speaker 1: have the court decide its legality, because it's a complicated

206
00:11:03,040 --> 00:11:06,800
Speaker 1: issue and they need time to look at it. Because

207
00:11:06,800 --> 00:11:10,079
Speaker 1: the argument, if you didn't hear James Gallagher talk about it,

208
00:11:10,120 --> 00:11:14,839
Speaker 1: is obviously the argument for us is, you know, we

209
00:11:14,840 --> 00:11:16,360
Speaker 1: should have the right to do this. We have every

210
00:11:16,440 --> 00:11:20,680
Speaker 1: right to amend the laws and the constitution through the

211
00:11:20,679 --> 00:11:25,640
Speaker 1: ballot process. And Newsom and the legislature is saying, well,

212
00:11:25,679 --> 00:11:30,360
Speaker 1: you can't do a wholesale revision of the constitution. That's

213
00:11:30,400 --> 00:11:32,920
Speaker 1: not legal. And they're claiming this is so extreme. It's

214
00:11:32,960 --> 00:11:35,960
Speaker 1: a huge revigion, not an adjustment. I mean, it's a

215
00:11:36,000 --> 00:11:42,280
Speaker 1: lot of semantics here. So some judges apparently thought it

216
00:11:42,559 --> 00:11:45,520
Speaker 1: might go too far. On the other hand, why shouldn't

217
00:11:45,520 --> 00:11:48,440
Speaker 1: the voters have a say like this? So I can't

218
00:11:48,520 --> 00:11:51,400
Speaker 1: see that any of these writers could figure out exactly

219
00:11:52,320 --> 00:11:54,840
Speaker 1: which way the court is leaning. Of course, all these

220
00:11:55,000 --> 00:11:58,520
Speaker 1: justices are from either Brown or Newsom, and there's seven

221
00:11:58,559 --> 00:12:04,360
Speaker 1: of them. They don't always down a down the line

222
00:12:04,640 --> 00:12:10,240
Speaker 1: liberal verdict on matters. So I'm gonna have to wait

223
00:12:10,360 --> 00:12:13,360
Speaker 1: on this at least in the immediate you know, we'll

224
00:12:13,360 --> 00:12:16,240
Speaker 1: talk to John Coopaul maybe tomorrow find out what he thought,

225
00:12:16,280 --> 00:12:19,680
Speaker 1: because he was in the courtroom, all right, onto Gavin Newsom,

226
00:12:19,720 --> 00:12:23,280
Speaker 1: because James Gallagher, the Assemblyman, said that Newsom is just

227
00:12:23,480 --> 00:12:26,880
Speaker 1: full of crap. Here is an example of Newsom being

228
00:12:26,880 --> 00:12:30,120
Speaker 1: full of crap. He made a claim that he's always

229
00:12:30,120 --> 00:12:33,760
Speaker 1: trying to do this raw, raw nonsense on California because

230
00:12:33,880 --> 00:12:36,680
Speaker 1: most of the news is bad in this state. And

231
00:12:37,679 --> 00:12:42,640
Speaker 1: he claims that there's record high tourism spending in California,

232
00:12:42,840 --> 00:12:49,160
Speaker 1: record high, that it was one hundred and fifty billion

233
00:12:49,240 --> 00:12:54,720
Speaker 1: dollars spent, and he announced it from the Golden Gate

234
00:12:54,760 --> 00:12:57,880
Speaker 1: Bridge on Sunday, one hundred and fifty billion dollars. And

235
00:12:57,920 --> 00:13:00,680
Speaker 1: he went into a all raw, raw California, our world

236
00:13:00,760 --> 00:13:04,000
Speaker 1: renowned coastline, the world's tallest trees, blah blah blah.

237
00:13:04,559 --> 00:13:05,719
Speaker 2: What he didn't mention is.

238
00:13:07,840 --> 00:13:11,240
Speaker 1: Inflation is up nineteen percent in California over the last

239
00:13:11,240 --> 00:13:17,400
Speaker 1: four years, nineteen percent. And he adds to it by

240
00:13:18,000 --> 00:13:22,880
Speaker 1: raising the minimum wage on fast food restaurants, which increase

241
00:13:22,960 --> 00:13:26,400
Speaker 1: the prices of fast food. So it's nineteen percent and

242
00:13:26,559 --> 00:13:30,480
Speaker 1: rising well when you factor in the nineteen percent inflation rate.

243
00:13:31,880 --> 00:13:37,360
Speaker 1: Adjusted for inflation, travel spending was down fourteen percent from

244
00:13:37,400 --> 00:13:40,400
Speaker 1: its peak in twenty nineteen, so it's not at a

245
00:13:40,440 --> 00:13:45,320
Speaker 1: record high in raw dollar figures. Yes, but because of

246
00:13:45,360 --> 00:13:50,160
Speaker 1: the nearly twenty percent inflation, travel spending was down fourteen

247
00:13:50,200 --> 00:13:55,640
Speaker 1: percent in five years, and travel related employment in the

248
00:13:55,720 --> 00:14:00,640
Speaker 1: state is down as well. So he's lying, and he

249
00:14:00,720 --> 00:14:05,120
Speaker 1: knows that. He knows that you must use inflation adjusted figures.

250
00:14:05,160 --> 00:14:07,040
Speaker 1: We're going to when you're going to make claims like this.

251
00:14:08,080 --> 00:14:10,640
Speaker 1: You can't just use the raw dollar amount because a

252
00:14:10,720 --> 00:14:14,360
Speaker 1: dollar is now only worth about eighty cents. One hundred

253
00:14:14,400 --> 00:14:17,679
Speaker 1: million dollars is only worse worth eighty million dollars.

254
00:14:19,120 --> 00:14:20,640
Speaker 2: So it's just out and out.

255
00:14:20,520 --> 00:14:26,640
Speaker 1: Propaganda bs, horsecraft nonsense from Newsom. When we come back,

256
00:14:27,400 --> 00:14:30,160
Speaker 1: we were we were telling you yesterday that the Chicago

257
00:14:30,200 --> 00:14:34,320
Speaker 1: Teachers Union is making a big stink. They want a

258
00:14:34,320 --> 00:14:37,160
Speaker 1: new contract, they want huge races, they want all their

259
00:14:37,160 --> 00:14:40,240
Speaker 1: abortions paid for, and they want all the illegal aliens

260
00:14:40,280 --> 00:14:43,240
Speaker 1: to have some kind of shelter, and they ought to.

261
00:14:43,480 --> 00:14:45,400
Speaker 1: They think the schools ought to be used for illegal

262
00:14:45,440 --> 00:14:49,800
Speaker 1: alien shelters. Really, and that while they're pushing for all

263
00:14:49,840 --> 00:14:54,240
Speaker 1: that the reading proficiency in eighth grade in Chicago is

264
00:14:54,840 --> 00:14:58,120
Speaker 1: twenty one percent. Nearly eighty percent of the students in

265
00:14:58,200 --> 00:15:02,480
Speaker 1: eighth grade are not at grade level or not at

266
00:15:02,760 --> 00:15:06,920
Speaker 1: grade reading level that they should be eighty percent. But

267
00:15:07,000 --> 00:15:10,360
Speaker 1: they want their abortions paid for and housing for illegal aliens. Well,

268
00:15:10,680 --> 00:15:12,400
Speaker 1: I told you weird stuff is going to come to

269
00:15:12,560 --> 00:15:15,880
Speaker 1: LA when it comes to union leaders. We got some

270
00:15:15,960 --> 00:15:17,640
Speaker 1: weird stuff to tell you about when we come back,

271
00:15:17,680 --> 00:15:24,080
Speaker 1: because the unions were protesting. School union leaders protesting yesterday

272
00:15:24,880 --> 00:15:26,560
Speaker 1: during the LA Board of Education meeting.

273
00:15:27,560 --> 00:15:31,920
Speaker 4: You're listening to John Cobels on demand from KFI AM

274
00:15:31,920 --> 00:15:32,480
Speaker 4: six forty.

275
00:15:33,400 --> 00:15:38,800
Speaker 1: I am so frustrated with reading news accounts and none

276
00:15:38,840 --> 00:15:41,320
Speaker 1: of the writers. They all watch the same hearing and

277
00:15:41,360 --> 00:15:42,920
Speaker 1: none of them agree as to what happened.

278
00:15:43,200 --> 00:15:44,120
Speaker 2: What are you talking about?

279
00:15:44,280 --> 00:15:46,920
Speaker 1: Well, that this this Supreme Court hearing as to whether

280
00:15:46,960 --> 00:15:50,240
Speaker 1: we're going to be allowed in November to vote on

281
00:15:50,280 --> 00:15:52,880
Speaker 1: a referendum that would give us the public the final

282
00:15:52,920 --> 00:15:56,640
Speaker 1: say on taxes after the legislature and knew some passive

283
00:15:56,680 --> 00:15:58,840
Speaker 1: tax increase we could vote yes or no on it,

284
00:15:58,840 --> 00:16:02,320
Speaker 1: and we have the final set. So, you know, I'm

285
00:16:02,360 --> 00:16:05,720
Speaker 1: reading something in Politico and I'm reading something from public Radio,

286
00:16:06,280 --> 00:16:08,360
Speaker 1: and one of them says, oh, they're split, and the

287
00:16:08,400 --> 00:16:10,960
Speaker 1: other one says, well, the justices were pushing back on

288
00:16:11,040 --> 00:16:13,640
Speaker 1: the idea that the public should have this power. And

289
00:16:13,640 --> 00:16:15,720
Speaker 1: then I look in the San Francisco Chronicle. They got

290
00:16:15,880 --> 00:16:20,120
Speaker 1: their own third version. State Supreme Court seemed reluctant to

291
00:16:20,240 --> 00:16:25,000
Speaker 1: grant the Democrats' requests to remove from the ballot an

292
00:16:25,000 --> 00:16:29,720
Speaker 1: initiative that would require voter approval for any increase in taxes.

293
00:16:30,280 --> 00:16:34,720
Speaker 1: So they think the court was against removing the initiative

294
00:16:35,320 --> 00:16:40,960
Speaker 1: that the people should vote on it. Three stories from

295
00:16:40,960 --> 00:16:45,040
Speaker 1: three major news publications, three writers, with three different interpretations

296
00:16:45,040 --> 00:16:46,240
Speaker 1: of what they saw and heard.

297
00:16:47,960 --> 00:16:48,920
Speaker 2: That is frustrating.

298
00:16:49,000 --> 00:16:51,360
Speaker 1: And I don't know how it's funneled in through their

299
00:16:51,520 --> 00:16:53,920
Speaker 1: biases or their editors biases or what.

300
00:16:54,600 --> 00:16:56,720
Speaker 2: So what am I supposed to believe? Go check out

301
00:16:56,800 --> 00:16:57,840
Speaker 2: Associated Press.

302
00:17:00,880 --> 00:17:05,920
Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm sure they'll have a fourth version. They'll tell

303
00:17:05,960 --> 00:17:09,119
Speaker 1: me the hearing never happened. I don't know, you know,

304
00:17:09,359 --> 00:17:11,879
Speaker 1: John Coopaul is a realist. We'll get him on tomorrow.

305
00:17:12,000 --> 00:17:15,280
Speaker 1: He tells the truth, even when it's not something he likes.

306
00:17:15,720 --> 00:17:19,040
Speaker 1: He's with the Higher Jarvis Taxpayers Association all right. In

307
00:17:20,280 --> 00:17:23,880
Speaker 1: Chicago yesterday we spent some time on the insane demands

308
00:17:23,880 --> 00:17:25,200
Speaker 1: of the Chicago's Teachers Union.

309
00:17:25,240 --> 00:17:26,959
Speaker 2: They wanted massive increases.

310
00:17:27,119 --> 00:17:29,919
Speaker 1: By the way, the Chicago's Teachers Union, that is a terrible,

311
00:17:30,040 --> 00:17:33,920
Speaker 1: terrible group of teachers. The eighth graders as an example,

312
00:17:34,000 --> 00:17:37,919
Speaker 1: in Chicago, only twenty one percent read proficiently, so they

313
00:17:37,960 --> 00:17:42,000
Speaker 1: have an eighty percent failure rate in teaching rating. And

314
00:17:42,480 --> 00:17:44,520
Speaker 1: you know, they had all these wild demands. They want

315
00:17:44,560 --> 00:17:47,280
Speaker 1: all their abortions paid for by the taxpayers. They also

316
00:17:47,359 --> 00:17:52,040
Speaker 1: want they want illegal aliens to be housed in the

317
00:17:52,080 --> 00:17:59,480
Speaker 1: school buildings. Now here's LA. There was a LA time, says,

318
00:17:59,520 --> 00:18:02,960
Speaker 1: a massive and raucous street rally during the LA Board

319
00:18:02,960 --> 00:18:06,879
Speaker 1: of Education meeting. And the union leaders are angry with

320
00:18:06,920 --> 00:18:12,479
Speaker 1: budget cuts. Here's here's the problem. You know what nobody

321
00:18:12,520 --> 00:18:12,800
Speaker 1: can do.

322
00:18:12,920 --> 00:18:13,240
Speaker 2: Math.

323
00:18:13,480 --> 00:18:16,720
Speaker 1: I guess one hundred percent of the people in LA

324
00:18:16,800 --> 00:18:19,439
Speaker 1: government and the Board of Education and the teachers, one

325
00:18:19,520 --> 00:18:25,160
Speaker 1: hundred percent of them failed. Math projected revenue next year

326
00:18:25,440 --> 00:18:31,159
Speaker 1: for LA schools is about nine billion. Spending is estimated

327
00:18:31,200 --> 00:18:32,439
Speaker 1: at almost eleven billion.

328
00:18:33,560 --> 00:18:34,480
Speaker 2: What are you gonna do?

329
00:18:35,480 --> 00:18:38,360
Speaker 1: You got eleven billion dollars in spending on the books,

330
00:18:38,560 --> 00:18:43,480
Speaker 1: you only have nine billion dollars in revenue, so you're

331
00:18:43,520 --> 00:18:47,200
Speaker 1: gonna have to cut the budget significantly. And these idiot

332
00:18:47,440 --> 00:18:52,600
Speaker 1: union teachers are screaming and crying and threatening and stamping

333
00:18:52,640 --> 00:18:55,080
Speaker 1: their feet and waving signs and chanting rhyme.

334
00:18:55,359 --> 00:18:56,320
Speaker 2: Can you do math?

335
00:18:58,359 --> 00:19:01,760
Speaker 1: The difference between nine billion in revenue and eleven billion

336
00:19:01,800 --> 00:19:05,520
Speaker 1: in spending is two billion, So you've got to find

337
00:19:05,520 --> 00:19:07,920
Speaker 1: two billion dollars that doesn't exist right now.

338
00:19:09,440 --> 00:19:12,640
Speaker 2: So what's the school district supposed to do? Now?

339
00:19:12,640 --> 00:19:15,840
Speaker 1: Wonder the kids you can't do math or read. The

340
00:19:15,920 --> 00:19:21,880
Speaker 1: adults can't do math. There's nothing more to this. If

341
00:19:21,880 --> 00:19:24,160
Speaker 1: the costs are eleven billion in the revenue's nine billion,

342
00:19:24,200 --> 00:19:26,000
Speaker 1: then you got to you gotta cut two billion dollars.

343
00:19:26,000 --> 00:19:31,080
Speaker 2: That's it. So there's going to be layoffs. By the way, You.

344
00:19:31,040 --> 00:19:37,200
Speaker 1: Know how this happened because they gave major wage increases

345
00:19:38,119 --> 00:19:46,800
Speaker 1: to you know, teachers and to uh bus drivers, cafeteria workers, custodians, teachers, aides,

346
00:19:47,720 --> 00:19:53,320
Speaker 1: every guy. Everybody got a big bump. It's it's like

347
00:19:53,440 --> 00:19:57,040
Speaker 1: the wage increase that fast food. If everybody's going to

348
00:19:57,040 --> 00:19:58,840
Speaker 1: be making twenty bucks an hour, there's going to be

349
00:19:58,920 --> 00:19:59,840
Speaker 1: fewer people working.

350
00:20:01,119 --> 00:20:02,520
Speaker 2: If everybody's going to get a raise.

351
00:20:02,560 --> 00:20:04,680
Speaker 1: In the LA school system, there's going to be fewer

352
00:20:04,720 --> 00:20:09,920
Speaker 1: people working. What there's just like, not even a shred

353
00:20:10,000 --> 00:20:14,639
Speaker 1: of rationality anymore, not a shred of logic. Everything is

354
00:20:14,800 --> 00:20:21,159
Speaker 1: screaming emotion. Everything is Toddler time. Oh and you know

355
00:20:21,200 --> 00:20:25,399
Speaker 1: what triggered this, well, during the pandemic. Remember when they

356
00:20:25,560 --> 00:20:28,200
Speaker 1: closed the schools and refused to teach anyone for a

357
00:20:28,240 --> 00:20:34,040
Speaker 1: year and a half. Joe Biden sent records amounts of

358
00:20:34,080 --> 00:20:39,800
Speaker 1: money to school districts and LA got a huge windfall.

359
00:20:40,680 --> 00:20:43,680
Speaker 1: But the pandemic money ran out and there's not new

360
00:20:43,720 --> 00:20:46,760
Speaker 1: pandemic money coming. So what they did is they took

361
00:20:46,800 --> 00:20:49,320
Speaker 1: the extra and all that money was bogus money, right,

362
00:20:49,640 --> 00:20:55,480
Speaker 1: It was printed money, borrowed money, wasn't real money. And

363
00:20:55,520 --> 00:20:58,640
Speaker 1: now it's run out and it's been spent, and they're

364
00:20:58,640 --> 00:21:05,439
Speaker 1: two billion dollars in the hall. Dumbasses, If you're going

365
00:21:05,520 --> 00:21:09,000
Speaker 1: to spend all the extra money, and they weren't even teaching,

366
00:21:10,240 --> 00:21:14,119
Speaker 1: The teachers were laying rolling around on the sofa dressed

367
00:21:14,160 --> 00:21:19,159
Speaker 1: in their robes and underwear and fuzzy slippers doing zoom teaching.

368
00:21:19,960 --> 00:21:21,000
Speaker 2: Yeah, that was effective.

369
00:21:28,320 --> 00:21:32,320
Speaker 1: And one of the one of the biggest nuts is

370
00:21:32,320 --> 00:21:35,840
Speaker 1: the United Teachers LA president Sicily Mayar Cruz.

371
00:21:37,240 --> 00:21:38,120
Speaker 2: I remember her.

372
00:21:38,320 --> 00:21:44,200
Speaker 1: She was claiming parents who wanted the schools reopened during

373
00:21:44,200 --> 00:21:49,679
Speaker 1: the pandemic were racists. Okay, I don't know what planet

374
00:21:49,760 --> 00:21:55,879
Speaker 1: she inhabits. And she claims that there's billions in the bank,

375
00:21:56,160 --> 00:21:59,680
Speaker 1: and you're shortchanging students. Most of the students can't read

376
00:21:59,800 --> 00:22:03,760
Speaker 1: or right. You and your bad teachers are short changing

377
00:22:03,800 --> 00:22:07,760
Speaker 1: the students.

378
00:22:07,320 --> 00:22:10,919
Speaker 2: Just unbelievable. More coming up.

379
00:22:11,840 --> 00:22:16,159
Speaker 4: You're listening to John Cobels on demand from KFI AM

Speaker 1: coming up in just a few minutes. And and what

387
00:22:39,480 --> 00:22:40,880
Speaker 1: what's on the bottom of the white point? Oh?

388
00:22:40,880 --> 00:22:43,880
Speaker 2: Oh, yes, you follow us on social media? At John

389
00:22:43,920 --> 00:22:46,560
Speaker 2: Cobelt Radio. Thank you, you're welcome.

390
00:22:49,280 --> 00:22:53,520
Speaker 1: You know I've mentioned before that just trying to find

391
00:22:54,359 --> 00:22:57,640
Speaker 1: an accurate news story on what happened at that Supreme

392
00:22:57,640 --> 00:23:00,960
Speaker 1: Court hearing today on whether we have the right to

393
00:23:01,440 --> 00:23:06,399
Speaker 1: veto tax increases that the legislature and the governor pass right.

394
00:23:06,440 --> 00:23:08,760
Speaker 1: There's want to get an initiative on the ballot and

395
00:23:08,760 --> 00:23:11,240
Speaker 1: we should vote on it in November, and Newsom is

396
00:23:11,280 --> 00:23:13,520
Speaker 1: trying to stop us from voting on it and went

397
00:23:13,560 --> 00:23:15,640
Speaker 1: to the Supreme Court. And the more I read now

398
00:23:15,640 --> 00:23:18,040
Speaker 1: I just read another story, it looks like the Supreme

399
00:23:18,080 --> 00:23:21,359
Speaker 1: Court is going to let this be on the ballot

400
00:23:21,560 --> 00:23:24,480
Speaker 1: and then they'll figure it out later. Okay, But it

401
00:23:24,520 --> 00:23:27,119
Speaker 1: took like four articles until I found one that just

402
00:23:27,240 --> 00:23:32,399
Speaker 1: laid out plane if there was support or opposition to

403
00:23:32,520 --> 00:23:34,880
Speaker 1: this going on the ballot. And if you think it's

404
00:23:34,920 --> 00:23:37,280
Speaker 1: hard to figure out what's going on because so much

405
00:23:37,280 --> 00:23:42,760
Speaker 1: of the news is skewed or wrong or stupid, let

406
00:23:42,760 --> 00:23:45,159
Speaker 1: me tell you how much have you heard about global

407
00:23:45,200 --> 00:23:48,919
Speaker 1: warming the last few years? Probably too much? Right, It

408
00:23:49,000 --> 00:23:54,080
Speaker 1: turns out it's a very very minor issue for most Americans.

409
00:23:55,080 --> 00:24:03,159
Speaker 1: Most people don't care about it. In fact, Gallup just

410
00:24:03,200 --> 00:24:07,000
Speaker 1: did a twenty twenty four survey about what's the most

411
00:24:07,000 --> 00:24:10,160
Speaker 1: important issues that Americans.

412
00:24:09,400 --> 00:24:11,160
Speaker 2: Are dealing with, and.

413
00:24:13,800 --> 00:24:18,600
Speaker 1: It ranks eighteenth out of twenty issues polled according to

414
00:24:18,640 --> 00:24:22,399
Speaker 1: Pew Research, and according to Gallup, it's twelfth out of fourteen,

415
00:24:24,400 --> 00:24:27,560
Speaker 1: twelfth out of fourteen according to Gallup, eighteenth out of twenty.

416
00:24:28,280 --> 00:24:31,119
Speaker 2: For Pew, people aren't interested in it.

417
00:24:31,160 --> 00:24:35,280
Speaker 1: They agree that they're probably is global warming going on,

418
00:24:35,400 --> 00:24:37,040
Speaker 1: but they don't think it's going to be a big deal.

419
00:24:39,119 --> 00:24:42,240
Speaker 1: They're burned out by decades of these hysterical warnings because

420
00:24:42,280 --> 00:24:47,920
Speaker 1: nothing ever really happened. Fifty five percent do not think

421
00:24:47,960 --> 00:24:51,119
Speaker 1: global warming will pose a serious threat in their lifetime.

422
00:24:53,280 --> 00:24:54,560
Speaker 2: Here's an interesting question.

423
00:24:55,920 --> 00:24:59,280
Speaker 1: They asked Americans whether they'd personally be willing to spend

424
00:25:00,160 --> 00:25:04,879
Speaker 1: ten dollars in extra cash each month to end global warming.

425
00:25:05,000 --> 00:25:07,960
Speaker 1: All right, it's a question, Well you spend ten dollars

426
00:25:08,040 --> 00:25:12,960
Speaker 1: a month to end global warming? Only thirty nine percent

427
00:25:13,040 --> 00:25:18,440
Speaker 1: said yes. The rest said no, go away, get out

428
00:25:18,440 --> 00:25:21,800
Speaker 1: of here. Well, because they know the money's going to

429
00:25:21,840 --> 00:25:28,520
Speaker 1: get blown on nonsense anyway. So like, like I keep

430
00:25:28,520 --> 00:25:32,840
Speaker 1: telling you all these issues, you know, progressive issues. You know,

431
00:25:32,920 --> 00:25:36,119
Speaker 1: it's it's like it's like five, six, seven, eight percent

432
00:25:36,119 --> 00:25:42,240
Speaker 1: of people are are passionate about them. Most people don't

433
00:25:42,280 --> 00:25:45,639
Speaker 1: care or or they're against the issues outright. It's just

434
00:25:46,119 --> 00:25:49,600
Speaker 1: all these people are in the media, and half of

435
00:25:49,600 --> 00:25:54,399
Speaker 1: them are in politics, or they're Hollywood celebrities, or you know,

436
00:25:54,440 --> 00:25:58,080
Speaker 1: they run the schools, they're all the professors. So these

437
00:25:58,080 --> 00:26:00,919
Speaker 1: are all people with megaphones. These are all people who

438
00:26:01,000 --> 00:26:05,680
Speaker 1: can garner attention easily. Meantime, the rest of normal America,

439
00:26:06,680 --> 00:26:10,520
Speaker 1: most of them are worried about the economy and inflation,

440
00:26:12,320 --> 00:26:15,280
Speaker 1: and now they're worried about terrorism because they see what's

441
00:26:15,320 --> 00:26:18,199
Speaker 1: running around the college campuses. Those are all the terrorist

442
00:26:18,280 --> 00:26:23,359
Speaker 1: wannabes to come and immigration. In fact, global warming is

443
00:26:23,400 --> 00:26:30,360
Speaker 1: not even a major issue when Gallop listed specifically environmental problems,

444
00:26:31,600 --> 00:26:35,160
Speaker 1: So even in its own category of environmental issues, global

445
00:26:35,160 --> 00:26:40,320
Speaker 1: warming didn't do well. It ranked behind drinking water pollution,

446
00:26:40,800 --> 00:26:49,000
Speaker 1: river pollution, and soil contamination. They absolutely don't believe the

447
00:26:49,000 --> 00:26:51,919
Speaker 1: most alarmist view of global warming. Only four percent of

448
00:26:51,960 --> 00:27:00,719
Speaker 1: Americans believe it. So there's actually, there's actually really But

449
00:27:00,920 --> 00:27:04,840
Speaker 1: the problem is is we've got like a ridiculous, insane,

450
00:27:05,040 --> 00:27:09,080
Speaker 1: progressive whack job governor. He and the legislature have engineered

451
00:27:09,280 --> 00:27:12,160
Speaker 1: all these taxes and all these regulations and all these

452
00:27:12,200 --> 00:27:15,280
Speaker 1: mandates to get rid of gas powered cars. And it's

453
00:27:15,320 --> 00:27:19,360
Speaker 1: all in the name of the climate hysteria that much

454
00:27:19,359 --> 00:27:20,560
Speaker 1: of the public rejects.

455
00:27:21,320 --> 00:27:22,680
Speaker 2: They think of the climate's warming.

456
00:27:22,720 --> 00:27:25,080
Speaker 1: It's like, so what, which is what I've always thought

457
00:27:26,240 --> 00:27:28,320
Speaker 1: most I grew up in the Northeast, and I lived

458
00:27:28,359 --> 00:27:31,399
Speaker 1: in Chicago, places where it can be bitter cold for

459
00:27:31,440 --> 00:27:34,200
Speaker 1: a long time. Nobody I know who lives in bitter

460
00:27:34,280 --> 00:27:36,440
Speaker 1: cold climates, and I have a lot of friends who do.

461
00:27:37,160 --> 00:27:41,600
Speaker 1: Nobody fears global warming. They welcome it. They would like

462
00:27:41,640 --> 00:27:45,679
Speaker 1: mild winters. I got friends who live in you know,

463
00:27:45,720 --> 00:27:51,000
Speaker 1: Indiana and Minnesota, Upstate New York and New Jersey. They

464
00:27:51,200 --> 00:27:56,720
Speaker 1: want milder weather. It would create more farmland, they can

465
00:27:57,359 --> 00:28:03,080
Speaker 1: grow more crops. It's nothing wrong with warmer weather. Conway's

466
00:28:03,080 --> 00:28:05,280
Speaker 1: coming up next, and we've got Crozier with the news

467
00:28:05,320 --> 00:28:08,000
Speaker 1: live in the KFI twenty four hour newsroom. Hey, you've

468
