Speaker 3: You're listening to the John Cobel Podcast on the iHeartRadio app.

Speaker 2: Cobel Show on demand.

7
00:00:12,560 --> 00:00:16,720
Speaker 3: The podcast last Hour, we talked with Alex Stone tracking

8
00:00:16,760 --> 00:00:19,440
Speaker 3: this killer in New York City.

9
00:00:20,280 --> 00:00:23,239
Speaker 2: The guy who shot up the office.

10
00:00:22,880 --> 00:00:26,239
Speaker 3: Building he was looking for the NFL used to be

11
00:00:26,239 --> 00:00:29,680
Speaker 3: a high school football player in Granada Hills. So that's

12
00:00:29,720 --> 00:00:33,199
Speaker 3: on last errand we're also talking about the all the

13
00:00:33,280 --> 00:00:38,519
Speaker 3: robberies and Debor's neighborhood, all the vagrant activity in my

14
00:00:38,560 --> 00:00:42,120
Speaker 3: neighborhood as that a continues to go to hell. And

15
00:00:42,200 --> 00:00:47,880
Speaker 3: in Venice, dogs are dropping dead. This is a real story.

16
00:00:49,720 --> 00:00:54,840
Speaker 3: Westside Current has it. There have been six healthy dogs

17
00:00:55,800 --> 00:01:00,960
Speaker 3: who fell ill and died this month, all all after

18
00:01:01,000 --> 00:01:06,480
Speaker 3: walking near the Venice canals. So something's up here. The

19
00:01:06,520 --> 00:01:10,360
Speaker 3: first death was July sixth, most recent July twenty seventh,

20
00:01:10,440 --> 00:01:16,480
Speaker 3: and there's ten other dogs that have scary symptoms. One's

21
00:01:16,480 --> 00:01:22,199
Speaker 3: in intensive care. And we'll give you an example because

22
00:01:22,240 --> 00:01:27,400
Speaker 3: people are posting online they're terrible experiences. There's a woman

23
00:01:27,480 --> 00:01:31,320
Speaker 3: named Barbara, who lives in the Venice Canal and her

24
00:01:31,360 --> 00:01:35,720
Speaker 3: dog's Shadow, died on Monday the twenty first. She had

25
00:01:35,720 --> 00:01:38,520
Speaker 3: a habit she would lick her paws cleaner pause when

26
00:01:38,520 --> 00:01:41,360
Speaker 3: we'd get home from our walks. Then she stopped eating.

27
00:01:41,760 --> 00:01:44,600
Speaker 3: She was throwing up, even though she hadn't eaten anything.

28
00:01:45,240 --> 00:01:47,400
Speaker 3: Took her to the vet that said it was her kidneys,

29
00:01:48,760 --> 00:01:55,320
Speaker 3: and she died days later. Five days later, another dog

30
00:01:55,360 --> 00:01:59,840
Speaker 3: owner named Taylor lost her golden retriever Ginger. Ginger had

31
00:01:59,840 --> 00:02:03,840
Speaker 3: a severe seizure following a walk on the canals, and

32
00:02:03,960 --> 00:02:07,160
Speaker 3: Jingjer had just been to the veg and was given

33
00:02:07,240 --> 00:02:10,880
Speaker 3: a completely clean bill of health. So they're putting flyers

34
00:02:11,639 --> 00:02:18,720
Speaker 3: all over the canals warning people. The symptoms are vomiting,

35
00:02:18,919 --> 00:02:24,560
Speaker 3: sudden weakness or lethargy, seizures, cardiac arrest, collapse, foaming.

36
00:02:24,200 --> 00:02:24,760
Speaker 2: At the mouth.

37
00:02:24,919 --> 00:02:26,880
Speaker 4: It's some kind of poison, I think.

38
00:02:27,720 --> 00:02:29,680
Speaker 2: Yeah, it seems that way.

39
00:02:30,639 --> 00:02:35,120
Speaker 3: Now they're looking at one particular house and this may

40
00:02:35,200 --> 00:02:36,080
Speaker 3: not be the problem.

41
00:02:36,120 --> 00:02:37,800
Speaker 2: It may be be the problem. Who knows.

42
00:02:38,200 --> 00:02:41,760
Speaker 3: But it was treated for ants and according to the

43
00:02:41,800 --> 00:02:49,639
Speaker 3: West Side Current, a tenant said a handyman sprayed insect

44
00:02:49,680 --> 00:02:52,960
Speaker 3: repellent along the outside of the home. You could see

45
00:02:53,000 --> 00:02:55,480
Speaker 3: a white powder lining the side of the house and

46
00:02:55,520 --> 00:02:59,200
Speaker 3: scattered across the sidewalk, So it's easy for dogs to

47
00:02:59,280 --> 00:03:03,480
Speaker 3: start sniffing in licking it, and they're testing it. They're

48
00:03:03,480 --> 00:03:12,520
Speaker 3: testing the substance, but nobody knows that's the cause. One uh,

49
00:03:12,800 --> 00:03:17,000
Speaker 3: one guy in the neighborhood Ramon GANI. I think I'm

50
00:03:17,000 --> 00:03:24,080
Speaker 3: saying his name right. Orgoni has put together on that

51
00:03:24,160 --> 00:03:28,120
Speaker 3: they're they're sharing information on a Google spreadsheet, so everybody

52
00:03:28,160 --> 00:03:31,320
Speaker 3: lists the name of their pet, when they got sick,

53
00:03:31,520 --> 00:03:34,800
Speaker 3: the symptoms, whether they died or not, and they're trying

54
00:03:34,840 --> 00:03:40,160
Speaker 3: to find a pattern. But this is I mean, I

55
00:03:40,240 --> 00:03:44,320
Speaker 3: have walked my dog and you know he sniffs and

56
00:03:44,400 --> 00:03:45,120
Speaker 3: chews on everything.

57
00:03:45,800 --> 00:03:49,160
Speaker 4: Look, my dog ate an edible and got.

58
00:03:49,040 --> 00:03:50,680
Speaker 2: High because you leave them all over your bed.

59
00:03:50,760 --> 00:03:55,160
Speaker 4: But no, I don't. It happened in my neighborhood. Yeah,

60
00:03:55,160 --> 00:03:57,720
Speaker 4: my dogs are constantly eating things and I just.

61
00:03:57,720 --> 00:04:01,520
Speaker 2: Wait, somebody tossed an edible onto the My.

62
00:04:01,560 --> 00:04:04,640
Speaker 4: Dogs have not been high in a very very long time.

63
00:04:05,960 --> 00:04:12,040
Speaker 2: How about their owner? No response.

64
00:04:13,600 --> 00:04:17,120
Speaker 4: Even my doctor said it's okay to take a gummy

65
00:04:17,160 --> 00:04:18,080
Speaker 4: to help me sleep.

66
00:04:18,640 --> 00:04:22,520
Speaker 3: Sleeping because you're so round up it's for medical purposes.

67
00:04:22,560 --> 00:04:23,840
Speaker 2: Every once in a while you need it.

68
00:04:24,080 --> 00:04:26,719
Speaker 4: I want to be high.

69
00:04:27,240 --> 00:04:30,240
Speaker 2: Yeah, you call and I like, hey, how you doing?

70
00:04:35,880 --> 00:04:37,240
Speaker 4: You go ahead, Oh.

71
00:04:37,160 --> 00:04:39,120
Speaker 2: It's your show, you go, I give up my show.

72
00:04:39,839 --> 00:04:45,080
Speaker 4: I really hope that this isn't an intentional situation. Somebody

73
00:04:45,160 --> 00:04:50,440
Speaker 4: is intentionally trying, you know, through something that's poisonous. I

74
00:04:50,440 --> 00:04:53,919
Speaker 4: don't know. I'm hoping for the best that it's.

75
00:04:53,880 --> 00:04:56,560
Speaker 2: It's I don't hope. You always get disappointed.

76
00:04:56,720 --> 00:04:57,440
Speaker 4: I know hopeful.

77
00:04:57,480 --> 00:04:59,880
Speaker 2: People drive me crazy. No, I was.

78
00:05:00,160 --> 00:05:02,040
Speaker 3: I go to the dark side right away. First thing

79
00:05:02,080 --> 00:05:04,400
Speaker 3: I thought of, is you have this many maybe they're

80
00:05:04,440 --> 00:05:09,680
Speaker 3: being poisoned on purpose? Yeah, I mean plus plus venice,

81
00:05:09,760 --> 00:05:13,040
Speaker 3: there's so many. Somebody weird. I was wandering around, Yeah,

82
00:05:13,080 --> 00:05:14,000
Speaker 3: in those neighborhoods.

83
00:05:14,120 --> 00:05:18,039
Speaker 4: I mean, I'm curious if if anybody is having well,

84
00:05:18,279 --> 00:05:21,400
Speaker 4: if they're dogs, the ones that survived, I'm sure they're

85
00:05:21,480 --> 00:05:23,240
Speaker 4: they're doing a lot of blood work and they can

86
00:05:23,279 --> 00:05:28,159
Speaker 4: find out hopefully if there's a toxin or poison what

87
00:05:28,360 --> 00:05:30,560
Speaker 4: have you. They're they're able to identify.

88
00:05:30,640 --> 00:05:32,280
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's you know. The thing is, it's not something

89
00:05:32,320 --> 00:05:34,760
Speaker 3: you'd notice as you're walking. I mean, maybe you maybe

90
00:05:34,800 --> 00:05:36,400
Speaker 3: you do no, you' you're hypersensitive.

91
00:05:36,560 --> 00:05:39,960
Speaker 4: Well, yes, but sometimes my dog, I al, I will

92
00:05:40,080 --> 00:05:43,400
Speaker 4: literally look at my other dog for a second because

93
00:05:43,400 --> 00:05:46,239
Speaker 4: maybe it's pooping, and then I see my dog chomping,

94
00:05:46,800 --> 00:05:48,719
Speaker 4: and I have no idea what the dog eats, and

95
00:05:48,760 --> 00:05:51,599
Speaker 4: I'm opening her mouth and it's gone.

96
00:05:52,680 --> 00:05:56,440
Speaker 3: And then they then they start coughing up, you know,

97
00:05:56,440 --> 00:05:58,479
Speaker 3: if they if they chew on something that's really dry,

98
00:05:58,560 --> 00:05:59,599
Speaker 3: gets stuck in their throat.

99
00:06:00,120 --> 00:06:04,640
Speaker 4: No, my dogs usually swallow everything. Yes, it's My husband

100
00:06:04,720 --> 00:06:06,400
Speaker 4: keeps saying we need to put a muzzle on them,

101
00:06:06,400 --> 00:06:07,720
Speaker 4: and I just I think that's mean.

102
00:06:08,600 --> 00:06:11,600
Speaker 2: But they think that's mean.

103
00:06:12,200 --> 00:06:14,920
Speaker 4: Well I do, because I know that they wouldn't like it.

104
00:06:15,120 --> 00:06:20,960
Speaker 1: But better than being dead, Yes, that is very true.

105
00:06:23,040 --> 00:06:25,600
Speaker 3: So so they're just they're just putting up these these

106
00:06:25,600 --> 00:06:27,040
Speaker 3: flyers down they're hoping.

107
00:06:27,320 --> 00:06:27,560
Speaker 2: You know.

108
00:06:27,720 --> 00:06:29,560
Speaker 3: I guess maybe you should just find a little poop

109
00:06:29,600 --> 00:06:30,599
Speaker 3: room like like I have.

110
00:06:31,600 --> 00:06:34,200
Speaker 4: Not everybody has a big enough house or a poop

111
00:06:34,279 --> 00:06:35,520
Speaker 4: room for their animals.

112
00:06:35,640 --> 00:06:39,240
Speaker 3: It's it's an unused bathroom in a guest room, and

113
00:06:39,240 --> 00:06:40,320
Speaker 3: we don't have guests anymore.

114
00:06:40,360 --> 00:06:42,160
Speaker 4: So is it decorated, you know for the dog?

115
00:06:42,240 --> 00:06:44,560
Speaker 3: Oh no, it's it's just you know pads on the floor.

116
00:06:44,640 --> 00:06:46,120
Speaker 3: They go on the pads, and who cleans all the

117
00:06:46,760 --> 00:06:49,440
Speaker 3: cat has a box. I clean probably more than half

118
00:06:49,440 --> 00:06:52,680
Speaker 3: the time. That's the first thing I hear when I

119
00:06:52,720 --> 00:06:53,440
Speaker 3: walk through the door.

120
00:06:54,920 --> 00:06:56,679
Speaker 4: Can you clean up the poop room?

121
00:06:57,400 --> 00:07:02,240
Speaker 3: Check the poops, Check the poops. Wake up in the morning,

Speaker 3: head all day. No, it's not all over the house.

124
00:07:10,320 --> 00:07:12,160
Speaker 3: It's just in that bathroom.

125
00:07:12,360 --> 00:07:13,680
Speaker 4: That's just very foreign to me.

126
00:07:14,960 --> 00:07:18,880
Speaker 2: Well, my dog is nuts. You never met, Leo.

127
00:07:19,800 --> 00:07:24,080
Speaker 4: No, but I know the dogs take on characteristics of

128
00:07:24,160 --> 00:07:25,840
Speaker 4: their owners that I've worked with you.

129
00:07:25,840 --> 00:07:28,320
Speaker 2: For a very That's why yours are stoned.

Speaker 3: What about no the it's not both dogs I've had.

133
00:07:42,040 --> 00:07:43,640
Speaker 3: Both of them were crazy. We had to give away

134
00:07:43,680 --> 00:07:45,840
Speaker 3: the first one because it was so crazy. She she

135
00:07:46,000 --> 00:07:48,239
Speaker 3: was ripping chunks of flesh off people's legs.

136
00:07:48,640 --> 00:07:49,680
Speaker 4: Due to these animals, I.

137
00:07:51,240 --> 00:07:52,440
Speaker 2: Think it's somebody else in the house.

138
00:07:52,440 --> 00:07:56,400
Speaker 4: I don't think you, Okay, sure, blame the wife I

139
00:07:56,520 --> 00:07:57,040
Speaker 4: got either.

140
00:07:57,480 --> 00:07:58,680
Speaker 3: You know, I had a lot of people in the house.

141
00:07:59,560 --> 00:08:02,760
Speaker 3: Three I don't know what they were doing. So this, Yeah,

142
00:08:03,000 --> 00:08:05,040
Speaker 3: Leo goes nuts and I can't. I can't take him

143
00:08:05,080 --> 00:08:09,280
Speaker 3: out for a walk. The last time I tried. Yeah,

144
00:08:09,320 --> 00:08:12,160
Speaker 3: he saw a dog across the street. He started jumping,

145
00:08:12,320 --> 00:08:15,440
Speaker 3: trying to jump in the air, twisting his body, twisting

146
00:08:15,480 --> 00:08:20,080
Speaker 3: his head, and he slipped out of the uh oh leash.

147
00:08:20,160 --> 00:08:22,440
Speaker 4: Yeah, I know how that goes, because a neighbor's dog

148
00:08:22,560 --> 00:08:25,480
Speaker 4: did that to us. It started attacking my dog.

149
00:08:25,600 --> 00:08:27,320
Speaker 2: Yeah, No, he goes after dogs.

150
00:08:27,600 --> 00:08:30,160
Speaker 3: And then he ran across the street and cars were

151
00:08:30,200 --> 00:08:33,480
Speaker 3: coming and I dove onto the street, like right onto

152
00:08:33,520 --> 00:08:38,120
Speaker 3: the asphalt, and he got under a car. So I

153
00:08:38,160 --> 00:08:40,600
Speaker 3: got my head under the car with my legs sticking

154
00:08:40,640 --> 00:08:44,720
Speaker 3: out in traffic, trying to grab me, squirming and howling,

155
00:08:44,720 --> 00:08:46,480
Speaker 3: and he's trying to kill some other dog.

156
00:08:46,559 --> 00:08:47,600
Speaker 2: I was like, I'm not doing this.

157
00:08:47,880 --> 00:08:48,880
Speaker 4: Was that the last time you do?

158
00:08:49,280 --> 00:08:49,840

Speaker 2: So we get.

Speaker 3: That TV clip ready, Eric, we're talking last hour about

174
00:09:39,360 --> 00:09:41,480
Speaker 3: you know, there's these robberies in Debor's neighborhood.

175
00:09:41,559 --> 00:09:43,240
Speaker 2: Nobody cares. I've got it.

176
00:09:43,360 --> 00:09:47,520
Speaker 4: Now there's a fire. Yeah, I'm getting messages. We I'm

177
00:09:47,520 --> 00:09:51,840
Speaker 4: part of this evacuation squad when the fires broke out

178
00:09:52,000 --> 00:09:55,400
Speaker 4: in January. Yes, so there's a bunch of people in

179
00:09:55,400 --> 00:09:58,680
Speaker 4: the neighborhood put together what they call the evacuation squad.

180
00:09:58,720 --> 00:10:02,200
Speaker 4: So now I'm being inundated with messages and they're showing what.

181
00:10:02,280 --> 00:10:04,480
Speaker 3: You stand on the roof of the house and scream,

182
00:10:04,600 --> 00:10:06,160
Speaker 3: get out, get out fire?

183
00:10:07,160 --> 00:10:08,840
Speaker 2: Do you wear a vest or a hat?

184
00:10:09,040 --> 00:10:12,640
Speaker 4: I'm not, I did not. I didn't start this. I'm

185
00:10:12,679 --> 00:10:15,720
Speaker 4: just reading the text I see and somebody just posted

186
00:10:15,840 --> 00:10:17,480
Speaker 4: fire trucks evacuation squad.

187
00:10:17,640 --> 00:10:20,880
Speaker 3: Sounds like a like a crime show. I know, yeah,

188
00:10:22,160 --> 00:10:25,880
Speaker 3: evacuation squad. Well, uh, you know, we got we got

189
00:10:25,880 --> 00:10:30,360
Speaker 3: a lot of terrible things going on, and as we

190
00:10:30,400 --> 00:10:34,480
Speaker 3: explained last hour, nobody cares. People get aggravated with the police,

191
00:10:34,640 --> 00:10:37,840
Speaker 3: but the police are just under orders from Karen Bass

192
00:10:37,840 --> 00:10:39,880
Speaker 3: not to do anything and not to care, and I

193
00:10:39,960 --> 00:10:43,400
Speaker 3: understand being frustrated. We're gonna play you a story here

194
00:10:43,520 --> 00:10:48,400
Speaker 3: from Fox eleven Genus Silva. There is another wave of crime.

195
00:10:48,840 --> 00:10:52,760
Speaker 3: Thieves are stealing all the tires from your car.

196
00:10:53,280 --> 00:10:55,120
Speaker 6: To walk up to it to see the two wheels messing,

197
00:10:55,200 --> 00:10:57,240
Speaker 6: it's like you work so hard for for a reward

198
00:10:57,280 --> 00:11:00,359
Speaker 6: and then you find that it's just so upsetting.

199
00:11:00,520 --> 00:11:03,520
Speaker 1: Jason is one of several Los Angeles residents waking up

200
00:11:03,520 --> 00:11:07,440
Speaker 1: to a disturbing site vehicles stripped of their wheels and

201
00:11:07,559 --> 00:11:09,680
Speaker 1: left propped up on concrete blocks.

202
00:11:09,760 --> 00:11:11,720
Speaker 6: As soon as I approached it, I saw lugnuts on

203
00:11:11,720 --> 00:11:14,920
Speaker 6: the ground, and I quickly found out that both my

204
00:11:15,040 --> 00:11:19,600
Speaker 6: driver's side wheels were missing, So immediately I contacted the

205
00:11:19,760 --> 00:11:21,559
Speaker 6: LPD filed the police report.

206
00:11:22,080 --> 00:11:25,360
Speaker 1: Security cameras captured two men in a white van scoping

207
00:11:25,360 --> 00:11:27,800
Speaker 1: out the area around four in the morning on Sunday.

208
00:11:28,360 --> 00:11:32,079
Speaker 1: The video shows them parking parallel to Jason's truck, then

209
00:11:32,120 --> 00:11:35,360
Speaker 1: getting out of the vehicle on Edinburgh Avenue near First

210
00:11:35,360 --> 00:11:37,440
Speaker 1: Street in the Beverly Grove neighborhood.

211
00:11:37,880 --> 00:11:40,880
Speaker 6: I found that there were other victims that surfaced on

212
00:11:40,960 --> 00:11:42,839
Speaker 6: the app stating that they are victims too. In the

213
00:11:42,920 --> 00:11:46,280
Speaker 6: last two weeks, the suspects have been using the same

214
00:11:46,480 --> 00:11:48,920
Speaker 6: exact send their block, which tells me it was the

215
00:11:48,920 --> 00:11:51,760
Speaker 6: same individual or individuals that were involved.

216
00:11:51,920 --> 00:11:55,440
Speaker 7: The same cement blocks they use and everything, so it's

217
00:11:55,520 --> 00:11:57,480
Speaker 7: all all they're working altogether.

218
00:11:57,880 --> 00:12:01,440
Speaker 1: A little over a mile away in Hollywood, Jonathan Gonzalez's

219
00:12:01,480 --> 00:12:03,920
Speaker 1: car was also targeted on Sunday morning.

220
00:12:04,000 --> 00:12:06,640
Speaker 7: I woke up and my wheels were gone, and then

221
00:12:06,800 --> 00:12:08,880
Speaker 7: it was the same, the same how they have it

222
00:12:09,200 --> 00:12:11,920
Speaker 7: right here is the same thing. They left it with

223
00:12:12,000 --> 00:12:15,280
Speaker 7: the same blocks, and they left the boats everything.

224
00:12:15,800 --> 00:12:19,480
Speaker 1: Not far from where Jonathan's vehicle was parked, thieves targeted

225
00:12:19,640 --> 00:12:23,000
Speaker 1: another car, this one in the sixty three hundred block

226
00:12:23,080 --> 00:12:24,920
Speaker 1: of Wearing Avenue in Hollywood.

227
00:12:25,000 --> 00:12:27,320
Speaker 6: The neighbors come together and do our part and do

228
00:12:27,360 --> 00:12:30,400
Speaker 6: our detective work, and so far we've come together and

229
00:12:30,400 --> 00:12:33,480
Speaker 6: found that the same exact Viet van was found on

230
00:12:33,559 --> 00:12:37,280
Speaker 6: multiple cameras I mean without our own police work, we

231
00:12:37,320 --> 00:12:40,600
Speaker 6: wouldn't know that. So here we are today, their low lives.

232
00:12:40,679 --> 00:12:41,680
Speaker 2: They need to be stopped.

233
00:12:42,559 --> 00:12:44,000
Speaker 7: There's a content I'm going to do it. We might

234
00:12:44,040 --> 00:12:44,800
Speaker 7: do it ourselves.

235
00:12:45,000 --> 00:12:48,760
Speaker 8: Residentsy they'll keep tracking the suspects themselves, sharing footage and

236
00:12:48,920 --> 00:12:52,200
Speaker 8: updates through ring apps and social media, and of course

237
00:12:52,280 --> 00:12:55,719
Speaker 8: anyone with information on these stabs is urged to contact

238
00:12:55,920 --> 00:12:56,920
Speaker 8: the LAPD.

239
00:12:57,920 --> 00:13:03,360
Speaker 3: You could see vigilanteism is starting to be discussed. What

240
00:13:03,400 --> 00:13:06,400
Speaker 3: one of the guys said, they need to be stopped.

241
00:13:06,400 --> 00:13:07,839
Speaker 3: If the cops are not going to do it, we

242
00:13:07,920 --> 00:13:10,680
Speaker 3: might do it ourselves. We have to do our own

243
00:13:10,679 --> 00:13:15,400
Speaker 3: detective work. We found the same then on multiple cameras.

244
00:13:15,800 --> 00:13:18,560
Speaker 3: The police are supposed to be coming and looking at

245
00:13:18,600 --> 00:13:22,600
Speaker 3: those security cameras and piecing together the evidence and then

246
00:13:22,679 --> 00:13:27,400
Speaker 3: tracking the guy down. Maybe the police know who this

247
00:13:27,480 --> 00:13:30,480
Speaker 3: guy is or who these guys are, but the police

248
00:13:30,559 --> 00:13:33,720
Speaker 3: don't even want to show up. Of course, Karen Bass

249
00:13:33,720 --> 00:13:38,320
Speaker 3: has successfully defunded the police. When she was campaigning and

250
00:13:38,360 --> 00:13:41,480
Speaker 3: that issue was hot around the country, she'd go, oh, no, no,

251
00:13:41,559 --> 00:13:45,200
Speaker 3: I know I would never say that, but she did.

252
00:13:45,400 --> 00:13:48,079
Speaker 3: She just did it quietly, and by the end of

253
00:13:48,120 --> 00:13:49,600
Speaker 3: the year, We're going to be down to eighty three

254
00:13:49,679 --> 00:13:54,120
Speaker 3: hundred police. We had ten thousand not too long ago.

255
00:13:54,880 --> 00:13:58,360
Speaker 3: And these people are all over big city government. This

256
00:13:58,520 --> 00:14:02,520
Speaker 3: new socialist means in New York, who's leading the polls

257
00:14:02,600 --> 00:14:09,480
Speaker 3: zoron Mondami. After that cop was murdered last night in

258
00:14:09,920 --> 00:14:14,840
Speaker 3: that shooting spree, somebody looked at his old posts on

259
00:14:15,360 --> 00:14:19,840
Speaker 3: x and they found June twenty twenty. This is within

260
00:14:19,880 --> 00:14:24,120
Speaker 3: the first two weeks of the stupid George Floyd hysteria.

261
00:14:25,760 --> 00:14:28,760
Speaker 3: June eight, twenty twenty, Mom Donnie says, no, we want

262
00:14:28,800 --> 00:14:34,080
Speaker 3: to defund the police. November fifth. Queer liberation means defund

263
00:14:34,080 --> 00:14:37,760
Speaker 3: the police. This is the guy they're going to elect

264
00:14:37,800 --> 00:14:41,240
Speaker 3: the mayor of New York City. Queer liberation means defund

265
00:14:41,280 --> 00:14:45,160
Speaker 3: the police. I don't even know what that means. He

266
00:14:45,200 --> 00:14:48,200
Speaker 3: writes further June twenty eighth, We don't need an investigation

267
00:14:48,320 --> 00:14:51,840
Speaker 3: to know that NYPD is racist, anti queer, and a

268
00:14:51,880 --> 00:15:00,000
Speaker 3: major threat to public safety. We need to defund the NYPD.

269
00:15:00,160 --> 00:15:03,160
Speaker 3: Deal with the New York City mayor uses budget tricks

270
00:15:03,200 --> 00:15:05,200
Speaker 3: to keep as many cops as possible on the beat.

271
00:15:05,280 --> 00:15:08,560
Speaker 3: Referring to the current mayor. No to fake cuts, defund

272
00:15:08,640 --> 00:15:12,320
Speaker 3: the police. He wanted it, dismantled, all the misery, all

273
00:15:12,360 --> 00:15:14,880
Speaker 3: for money. In the last budget, city council tried to

274
00:15:14,880 --> 00:15:17,880
Speaker 3: make the NYPD reduce its overtime budget by half. They

275
00:15:17,920 --> 00:15:21,480
Speaker 3: simply refused. There's no negotiating with an institution this wicked

276
00:15:21,520 --> 00:15:25,080
Speaker 3: and corrupt. Defund it, dismantle it, and the cycle of violence.

277
00:15:26,840 --> 00:15:29,200
Speaker 3: Now he's saying, I will not defund the police. I

278
00:15:29,200 --> 00:15:31,040
Speaker 3: will work with the police. I think the police have

279
00:15:31,080 --> 00:15:33,080
Speaker 3: a critical role to play.

280
00:15:32,520 --> 00:15:34,320
Speaker 2: This is what Bass did.

281
00:15:35,360 --> 00:15:37,680
Speaker 3: Puts on the grandma smile, Like this guy is going

282
00:15:37,720 --> 00:15:44,800
Speaker 3: to put on his charming, youthful gen X smile and say,

283
00:15:44,840 --> 00:15:47,200
Speaker 3: oh no, no, I wouldn't do that. But then they

284
00:15:47,240 --> 00:15:50,800
Speaker 3: get in office and stuff starts disappearing.

285
00:15:50,240 --> 00:15:50,960
Speaker 2: From the budget.

286
00:15:51,600 --> 00:15:54,400
Speaker 3: We have two thirds of police department, one half of

287
00:15:54,400 --> 00:15:58,240
Speaker 3: a fire department. Of course they defund the police and

288
00:15:58,280 --> 00:16:03,680
Speaker 3: the fire of course they do, because I told you

289
00:16:03,760 --> 00:16:06,520
Speaker 3: before the police are oppressors.

290
00:16:08,720 --> 00:16:13,360
Speaker 2: The criminals are the oppressed. When people get.

291
00:16:13,200 --> 00:16:15,640
Speaker 3: Angry, they say, oh, you know, these politicians they really

292
00:16:15,640 --> 00:16:18,640
Speaker 3: love criminals. And you say that in kind of a dismissive,

293
00:16:18,680 --> 00:16:22,440
Speaker 3: insulting way. No, no, no, you're describing it accurately. They

294
00:16:22,480 --> 00:16:27,560
Speaker 3: really do love the criminals. They really feel emotional for

295
00:16:27,640 --> 00:16:33,120
Speaker 3: them that they're suffering from the oppression from those who

296
00:16:35,320 --> 00:16:38,400
Speaker 3: succeed in life and own homes and have cars and

297
00:16:38,480 --> 00:16:45,040
Speaker 3: have children, and they own property. This is a communist crowd.

298
00:16:45,080 --> 00:16:45,680
Speaker 2: They hate you.

299
00:16:45,760 --> 00:16:50,080
Speaker 3: If you own property, they hate you. If you make money,

300
00:16:50,600 --> 00:16:52,400
Speaker 3: they hate you. If you have a car, if you

301
00:16:52,440 --> 00:16:56,840
Speaker 3: have a swimming pool, they hate you. This is privilege

302
00:16:56,880 --> 00:17:01,760
Speaker 3: that you should unearned privilege you should not have. So

303
00:17:01,840 --> 00:17:06,560
Speaker 3: to create equity, they want the criminals and the homeless

304
00:17:06,600 --> 00:17:09,080
Speaker 3: to get their share, at least have the freedom to

305
00:17:09,119 --> 00:17:12,159
Speaker 3: do what they want in the streets. Now here's the

306
00:17:12,200 --> 00:17:15,120
Speaker 3: next wave of this, and it's back here in La.

307
00:17:15,760 --> 00:17:17,440
Speaker 3: I'm going to talk about it when we come back.

308
00:17:19,040 --> 00:17:24,040
Speaker 3: Westside Councilmen Councilwoman Tracy Park is publicly asking Governor Newsom

309
00:17:24,160 --> 00:17:28,000
Speaker 3: to pause a Senate bill which has led to developers

310
00:17:28,080 --> 00:17:32,879
Speaker 3: buying up properties of the Palisades to put up multi

311
00:17:32,880 --> 00:17:40,560
Speaker 3: family buildings because Newsom and the rest of the progressives,

312
00:17:41,000 --> 00:17:44,119
Speaker 3: Karen Bass, they hate single family housing.

313
00:17:45,720 --> 00:17:46,080
Speaker 2: Hate it.

Speaker 2: Debra's Block.

323
00:18:12,040 --> 00:18:18,120
Speaker 3: After getting plagued by two robberies over the weekend, now you've.

324
00:18:17,920 --> 00:18:19,320
Speaker 2: Got fire trucks all over.

325
00:18:19,119 --> 00:18:21,639
Speaker 4: The place literally, So there's one right across the street

326
00:18:21,640 --> 00:18:23,480
Speaker 4: from my house, and so a neighbor sent it. So

327
00:18:23,520 --> 00:18:26,359
Speaker 4: of course I'm freaking out. So I probably didn't sound

328
00:18:26,359 --> 00:18:29,040
Speaker 4: as great as I normally do my last news count.

329
00:18:29,200 --> 00:18:31,080
Speaker 2: I didn't know because I was.

330
00:18:31,080 --> 00:18:34,359
Speaker 4: A little nervous. But then there's a bunch of fire

331
00:18:34,400 --> 00:18:39,400
Speaker 4: trucks just literally like three houses down from where I live.

332
00:18:39,480 --> 00:18:42,680
Speaker 4: But my neighbors are texting me saying that that we're okay.

333
00:18:44,240 --> 00:18:48,359
Speaker 4: I don't know what's going on here. There's fire trucks

334
00:18:48,400 --> 00:18:50,760
Speaker 4: and a lot of smoke. This is what neighbors are saying.

335
00:18:50,520 --> 00:18:52,359
Speaker 2: Coming from the house. So it's not a brush fire.

336
00:18:52,640 --> 00:18:56,359
Speaker 4: I think it could be a brush fire maybe behind

337
00:18:56,400 --> 00:19:01,160
Speaker 4: the house. I haven't people are texting right now.

338
00:19:01,240 --> 00:19:03,280
Speaker 2: But it's been a tough three days.

339
00:19:03,440 --> 00:19:06,200
Speaker 4: I think it's a brush fire behind somebody's house. I

340
00:19:06,720 --> 00:19:10,280
Speaker 4: don't know any more details about it. I don't see

341
00:19:10,320 --> 00:19:11,880
Speaker 4: from uh some.

342
00:19:11,840 --> 00:19:15,439
Speaker 3: Pictures that you remember they caught an arsonist in your neighborhood,

343
00:19:15,560 --> 00:19:18,560
Speaker 3: did when when the fires were going crazy last year?

344
00:19:18,680 --> 00:19:18,840
Speaker 2: Right?

345
00:19:18,960 --> 00:19:19,200
Speaker 3: Yes?

346
00:19:19,359 --> 00:19:21,840
Speaker 4: Or was it the neighbors? Yes, it was last year.

347
00:19:21,920 --> 00:19:25,440
Speaker 4: It was the second night I think of the fire, right,

348
00:19:25,480 --> 00:19:28,520
Speaker 4: and they was somebody with a torch running around my neighborhood.

349
00:19:28,520 --> 00:19:34,200
Speaker 4: And fortunately the neighbors tackled that person, who I don't

350
00:19:34,240 --> 00:19:36,720
Speaker 4: even know if we know for sure, was suspected of

351
00:19:36,720 --> 00:19:39,160
Speaker 4: starting a fire in Calabasas earlier that night.

352
00:19:39,280 --> 00:19:44,600
Speaker 3: Yeah, but then that story disappeared. Yes, after they tackled him.

353
00:19:44,600 --> 00:19:46,520
Speaker 3: I don't know what happened, Yeah, I don't.

354
00:19:46,640 --> 00:19:48,760
Speaker 4: I think he was arrested, but.

355
00:19:48,840 --> 00:19:52,800
Speaker 2: There was not charged. Yeah, yeah, I don't know. Well,

356
00:19:52,840 --> 00:19:53,720
Speaker 2: if you have to run.

357
00:19:53,560 --> 00:19:55,919
Speaker 4: Off, I know, well I was. I was very close to,

358
00:19:56,280 --> 00:19:59,480
Speaker 4: uh running and telling somebody they need to take over

359
00:19:59,560 --> 00:19:59,840
Speaker 4: for me.

360
00:20:00,040 --> 00:20:04,200
Speaker 2: I was just give me your news copy, I'll do it. Yeah.

361
00:20:04,359 --> 00:20:07,160
Speaker 4: Yeah, sure, I think I'm okay for now.

362
00:20:07,520 --> 00:20:13,040
Speaker 3: Anything you can do, I can do anything.

363
00:20:13,080 --> 00:20:14,119
Speaker 4: You could do I could do that.

364
00:20:14,480 --> 00:20:21,760
Speaker 3: Uh. Tracy Park has written down in a letter demanding

365
00:20:21,760 --> 00:20:26,520
Speaker 3: that Governor Newsom stop Senate Bill nine from being implemented

366
00:20:26,560 --> 00:20:31,160
Speaker 3: in Pacific Palisades. If you don't know, Senate Bill nine

367
00:20:32,840 --> 00:20:37,520
Speaker 3: is being used by developers to convert single family lots

368
00:20:37,560 --> 00:20:42,400
Speaker 3: into multi unit developments. Uh.

369
00:20:43,720 --> 00:20:49,480
Speaker 2: They're using the emergency orders to exploit this disaster.

370
00:20:49,680 --> 00:20:53,480
Speaker 3: According to Tracy Park, she wrote to Newsom, I want

371
00:20:53,480 --> 00:20:56,520
Speaker 3: to express my deep concerns about the impacts. You know

372
00:20:56,560 --> 00:21:00,240
Speaker 3: what they call them state density laws. Isn't that an

373
00:21:00,280 --> 00:21:04,399
Speaker 3: eye watering explanation. What it is is the state is

374
00:21:04,520 --> 00:21:10,080
Speaker 3: trying to incentivize developers to buy up lots and then

375
00:21:10,160 --> 00:21:17,720
Speaker 3: put up duplexes or apartment buildings on those lots, overriding

376
00:21:17,920 --> 00:21:23,320
Speaker 3: local zoning laws which dictate single family homes only. They

377
00:21:23,320 --> 00:21:26,239
Speaker 3: have a whole variety of these laws that are going on.

378
00:21:27,240 --> 00:21:33,280
Speaker 3: And the reason, well, this is so unfair to the

379
00:21:33,280 --> 00:21:36,439
Speaker 3: people of Palisades. They will not hand out permits so

380
00:21:36,560 --> 00:21:43,040
Speaker 3: people can replace their homes the way they want, and

381
00:21:43,080 --> 00:21:46,359
Speaker 3: now developers are buying up the lots because people are

382
00:21:46,400 --> 00:21:50,840
Speaker 3: getting impatient and they're they're devastated, they're desperate. So they'll

383
00:21:50,840 --> 00:21:54,159
Speaker 3: sell their lots to anybody. Here come the developers, and

384
00:21:54,200 --> 00:21:58,080
Speaker 3: they're going to put up these multi unit properties. Seven

385
00:21:58,160 --> 00:22:02,560
Speaker 3: properties have enlisted with the Los Angeles Department of Building

386
00:22:02,600 --> 00:22:10,400
Speaker 3: and Safety permit applications for duplex development UH the UH

387
00:22:11,040 --> 00:22:16,119
Speaker 3: Now although these developers are running into the same Karen

388
00:22:16,200 --> 00:22:19,760
Speaker 3: Bass wall of inertia because they're not getting their permits

389
00:22:19,800 --> 00:22:26,680
Speaker 3: approved yet, and and Tracy Park wants the density law

390
00:22:26,760 --> 00:22:33,600
Speaker 3: to be suspended, and good reason here, there's not there.

391
00:22:33,760 --> 00:22:38,200
Speaker 3: There's very few evacuation routes coming out of the Palisades.

392
00:22:38,200 --> 00:22:43,280
Speaker 3: As we found out when you when you're up in

393
00:22:43,359 --> 00:22:45,440
Speaker 3: the Palace, if you're in the hills of the Palisades,

394
00:22:45,480 --> 00:22:50,399
Speaker 3: you can only go south. There is no north. That's

395
00:22:50,440 --> 00:22:56,520
Speaker 3: all protected Santa Monica Mountain state land. You can't go

396
00:22:56,680 --> 00:23:00,000
Speaker 3: to the UH. To the west, it's the Pacific Ocean.

397
00:23:02,560 --> 00:23:04,560
Speaker 3: There's no road that goes east until you get down

398
00:23:04,600 --> 00:23:08,440
Speaker 3: to Sunset. Now, if you're in the flats of the Palisades,

399
00:23:08,840 --> 00:23:13,159
Speaker 3: you can go east or south, but you can't go

400
00:23:13,240 --> 00:23:17,320
Speaker 3: west or north. And there's still tons of traffic that

401
00:23:17,400 --> 00:23:19,720
Speaker 3: in normal times come out in and out of the Palisades.

402
00:23:20,560 --> 00:23:25,800
Speaker 3: If you start doubling tripling, quadrupling the number of homes

403
00:23:26,080 --> 00:23:31,800
Speaker 3: with these high density duplexes or quadruplexes or apartment buildings,

404
00:23:33,080 --> 00:23:37,879
Speaker 3: it's going to be impossible to get around. The developers

405
00:23:38,240 --> 00:23:43,040
Speaker 3: have bribed the Democratic legislature to do this, and the

406
00:23:43,080 --> 00:23:45,399
Speaker 3: cover story for the legislature.

407
00:23:44,800 --> 00:23:47,879
Speaker 2: Is, well, there's not enough housing.

408
00:23:49,480 --> 00:23:52,680
Speaker 3: Well that doesn't mean that you build these multifamily units

409
00:23:53,000 --> 00:23:56,360
Speaker 3: in a town that cannot sustain it. There's no room

410
00:23:56,440 --> 00:23:59,960
Speaker 3: to park, there's no way to escape.

411
00:24:00,000 --> 00:24:00,160
Speaker 2: Pep.

412
00:24:06,720 --> 00:24:11,679
Speaker 3: They burned out five thousand single family homes by not

413
00:24:11,760 --> 00:24:16,720
Speaker 3: having a fire department, by carried bass being in Africa,

414
00:24:17,080 --> 00:24:20,000
Speaker 3: by Newsome not clearing the brush, and on and on

415
00:24:20,040 --> 00:24:22,560
Speaker 3: and on. And now they're looking at this and they're

416
00:24:22,600 --> 00:24:25,120
Speaker 3: rubbing their hands because what they want to they call

417
00:24:25,160 --> 00:24:32,440
Speaker 3: it infill. That's the name they have, Urban infill. They've

418
00:24:32,480 --> 00:24:37,960
Speaker 3: decided in their silly little woke heads that you can't

419
00:24:38,000 --> 00:24:41,480
Speaker 3: have a family living in a single house a single building,

420
00:24:44,920 --> 00:24:47,119
Speaker 3: that you're going to have multiple families living in a

421
00:24:47,160 --> 00:24:51,119
Speaker 3: structure because they say so. And there used to be

422
00:24:51,200 --> 00:24:53,680
Speaker 3: zoning laws against this, and now the state is overriding

423
00:24:53,720 --> 00:25:00,480
Speaker 3: local zoning laws. Remember Newsom and bast had pro promised

424
00:25:00,920 --> 00:25:03,840
Speaker 3: that the Palisades would stay the same, that people could

425
00:25:03,840 --> 00:25:09,960
Speaker 3: rebuild the town the way it was. And what's happened since, well,

426
00:25:10,000 --> 00:25:15,320
Speaker 3: now developers are buying up properties. Bass is not giving

427
00:25:15,320 --> 00:25:19,679
Speaker 3: out permits. Senate Bill nine allows them to build multifamily housing.

428
00:25:20,440 --> 00:25:24,440
Speaker 3: Newsom is throwing in one hundred million dollars for low

429
00:25:24,480 --> 00:25:29,520
Speaker 3: income housing. There was another bill that the local senate

430
00:25:29,640 --> 00:25:32,439
Speaker 3: state Senator Ben Allen wrote got beat back for the

431
00:25:32,480 --> 00:25:36,879
Speaker 3: time being, caused a huge ruckus, and it was also

432
00:25:36,920 --> 00:25:41,200
Speaker 3: going to lead to more low income housing. That they

433
00:25:41,200 --> 00:25:46,040
Speaker 3: are relentless with this. They want multifamily housing, they want

434
00:25:46,080 --> 00:25:52,960
Speaker 3: low income housing. They want single family homes gone, and

435
00:25:53,000 --> 00:25:58,400
Speaker 3: they want the current Palisaders residents gone. They're not entitled

436
00:26:00,000 --> 00:26:04,399
Speaker 3: anymore to live in a single family host, a single

437
00:26:04,440 --> 00:26:07,520
Speaker 3: family home in a single family neighborhood. That's too much

438
00:26:07,560 --> 00:26:15,080
Speaker 3: privilege for them. That's not equity. Big war coming to

439
00:26:15,119 --> 00:26:18,639
Speaker 3: the Palisades. And I don't know if these people have

440
00:26:18,720 --> 00:26:23,160
Speaker 3: the energy to fight. Good understand If they don't, they

441
00:26:23,200 --> 00:26:26,000
Speaker 3: just surrender, which is what Newsom and Bass are counting on.

442
00:26:26,520 --> 00:26:29,280
Speaker 3: Bass can get her way simply by not reacting, by

443
00:26:29,359 --> 00:26:32,640
Speaker 3: not giving out the permits, by not even talking about

444
00:26:32,640 --> 00:26:34,840
Speaker 3: the issue got more kind up.

445
00:26:35,760 --> 00:26:40,000
Speaker 5: You're listening to John Cobelts on demand from KFI AM.

446
00:26:41,760 --> 00:26:46,000
Speaker 3: I AM six forty more stimulating talk radio. John cobelt

447
00:26:46,000 --> 00:26:49,320
Speaker 3: here coming up after three o'clock. Michael Monks is going

448
00:26:49,400 --> 00:26:53,000
Speaker 3: to be on with us. The LA County Board of

449
00:26:53,040 --> 00:26:56,560
Speaker 3: Supervisors has five women. Four of the five women are

450
00:26:56,680 --> 00:27:03,320
Speaker 3: complete leadheads, I mean, as dumb as stumps. Two of

451
00:27:03,359 --> 00:27:06,960
Speaker 3: the dumbest or Jenis Han and Hilda Salase, and they

452
00:27:07,960 --> 00:27:11,040
Speaker 3: have a new Their obsession is wearing masks.

453
00:27:12,480 --> 00:27:14,200
Speaker 2: I don't think it's a sexual fetish.

454
00:27:14,359 --> 00:27:17,480
Speaker 3: You don't know, but in this case, it's they don't

455
00:27:17,560 --> 00:27:20,200
Speaker 3: like immigration agents wearing masks when they do their job.

456
00:27:21,080 --> 00:27:24,600
Speaker 3: They think the agents should be photographed and docksed, and

457
00:27:24,920 --> 00:27:28,159
Speaker 3: that their addresses should be publicized, and that their families

458
00:27:28,200 --> 00:27:30,480
Speaker 3: are to be terrorized. That's what Janis Han and Hilda

459
00:27:30,480 --> 00:27:35,200
Speaker 3: Salice want because they're trying to ban masks and face

460
00:27:35,280 --> 00:27:39,480
Speaker 3: coverings by federal agents. Now we'll talk to Michael Monks

461
00:27:39,480 --> 00:27:42,640
Speaker 3: about this. I don't think Hilda Salice and Janis Han

462
00:27:42,720 --> 00:27:47,919
Speaker 3: can tell the federal government how to dress federal law

463
00:27:48,000 --> 00:27:52,440
Speaker 3: enforcement agents. That's just a wild, uneducated off the top

464
00:27:52,480 --> 00:27:54,679
Speaker 3: of my head, guests is they don't have the jurisdiction.

465
00:27:55,760 --> 00:28:03,720
Speaker 2: But we'll see I'm often wrong. And we're also going

466
00:28:03,800 --> 00:28:06,320
Speaker 2: to talk next hour about UH.

467
00:28:06,720 --> 00:28:09,800
Speaker 3: Trump is going to be cutting off the money spigot,

468
00:28:09,840 --> 00:28:13,400
Speaker 3: the federal money spigot to cities and counties that don't

469
00:28:13,400 --> 00:28:17,960
Speaker 3: get the homeless off the streets, and uh that could

470
00:28:18,000 --> 00:28:22,680
Speaker 3: mean serious problems for La County and the city. And

471
00:28:22,960 --> 00:28:27,200
Speaker 3: LASA looks like they're having huge budget reductions too, because

472
00:28:27,240 --> 00:28:32,679
Speaker 3: the county has pulled out of LASA the whole. It

473
00:28:32,840 --> 00:28:37,080
Speaker 3: seems like the whole racket is collapsing. There's two huge

474
00:28:37,560 --> 00:28:41,800
Speaker 3: money rackets in this country, two huge scams, one centered

475
00:28:41,800 --> 00:28:45,560
Speaker 3: here in La specifically is the homeless racket, and then

476
00:28:45,600 --> 00:28:48,720
Speaker 3: you have the green energy racket across the country. And

477
00:28:49,120 --> 00:28:52,240
Speaker 3: it looks like the money spigot's being turned off and

478
00:28:52,440 --> 00:28:55,200
Speaker 3: those people are going to have to find, uh, find

479
00:28:55,240 --> 00:28:55,760
Speaker 3: real work.

480
00:28:57,400 --> 00:28:59,360
Speaker 2: I'll uh let me, let me get let me give

481
00:28:59,360 --> 00:28:59,720
Speaker 2: you a bit of.

482
00:28:59,720 --> 00:29:05,479
Speaker 3: A tear here on the homeless thing. LASA has got

483
00:29:05,520 --> 00:29:09,520
Speaker 3: a new sales tax that the stupidos voted in in

484
00:29:09,560 --> 00:29:15,560
Speaker 3: November half sent permanent sales tax. Uh. Guess what. Guess what?

485
00:29:16,000 --> 00:29:19,080
Speaker 3: LASA even though they got the extra money. Uh, they're

486
00:29:19,120 --> 00:29:24,200
Speaker 3: they're cutting the programs the UH. They used to have

487
00:29:26,200 --> 00:29:30,600
Speaker 3: a housing subsidy, temporary housing subsidy to help homeless people

488
00:29:30,640 --> 00:29:34,520
Speaker 3: pay rent for a limited time until they figure out

489
00:29:34,520 --> 00:29:37,080
Speaker 3: how to live a normal life. Well, it looks like

490
00:29:37,720 --> 00:29:42,120
Speaker 3: they cut that budget. There's a long article here by

491
00:29:42,160 --> 00:29:46,040
Speaker 3: some guy named Andrew Corey, and it talks about, hey,

492
00:29:45,880 --> 00:29:48,280
Speaker 3: they got this sales tax pass, but it looks.

493
00:29:48,080 --> 00:29:49,680
Speaker 2: Like they're cutting all these programs.

494
00:29:51,400 --> 00:29:55,400
Speaker 3: Nowhere, Nowhere did it occur to Andrew Corey in the

495
00:29:55,520 --> 00:30:01,720
Speaker 3: La Times to mention the two billion dollars that is missing.

496
00:30:03,160 --> 00:30:08,040
Speaker 3: Federal Judge David Carter issued an audit. Alvarez and Marcel

497
00:30:08,160 --> 00:30:09,960
Speaker 3: was the company that did the audit, and they found

498
00:30:10,000 --> 00:30:13,640
Speaker 3: two billion dollars was missing. That is the responsibility of

499
00:30:13,720 --> 00:30:17,840
Speaker 3: Karen Bass, the responsibility of the former director of las

500
00:30:17,880 --> 00:30:21,880
Speaker 3: of Alicia Adams Callum. But there is no mention of

501
00:30:21,920 --> 00:30:25,920
Speaker 3: the two billion dollars that's missing. Just it's a story

502
00:30:25,960 --> 00:30:30,800
Speaker 3: on the UH, on the on the homeless, the homeless

503
00:30:30,880 --> 00:30:38,600
Speaker 3: racket participants whining that the money's not available anymore. They're

504
00:30:38,640 --> 00:30:44,600
Speaker 3: no longer accepting new participants in this subsidy program. Again,

505
00:30:44,960 --> 00:30:48,480
Speaker 3: it pays homeless people pays their rent for a time.

506
00:30:50,320 --> 00:30:55,600
Speaker 3: One one member of this of this homeless racket cult

507
00:30:55,680 --> 00:31:00,320
Speaker 3: is Sasha Morozov Marazov, regional director for a homeless service

508
00:31:00,360 --> 00:31:04,040
Speaker 3: provider known as Path. Oh yeah, it's going to bottleneck.

509
00:31:04,360 --> 00:31:07,840
Speaker 3: This is heartbreaking. We've worked so hard. He worked so hard.

510
00:31:08,760 --> 00:31:11,800
Speaker 3: You've worked so hard. There's tens of thousands of people

511
00:31:11,880 --> 00:31:17,760
Speaker 3: dying on the streets. You work so hard. Jesus. Every

512
00:31:17,840 --> 00:31:21,360
Speaker 3: story is the same. Everything's a sub sob story. Everything

513
00:31:21,440 --> 00:31:26,080
Speaker 3: is these emotional, overwrought quotes from people who make big

514
00:31:26,280 --> 00:31:33,680
Speaker 3: salaries working for nonprofits, who accomplish nothing. Why doesn't Andrew

515
00:31:33,760 --> 00:31:39,200
Speaker 3: Corey or his idiot editors why it should be obligatory

516
00:31:39,440 --> 00:31:45,120
Speaker 3: to have several paragraphs reminding everyone that two billion dollars

517
00:31:45,160 --> 00:31:49,440
Speaker 3: disappeared and nobody knows where it went or they don't

518
00:31:49,480 --> 00:31:55,280
Speaker 3: know if any effect. Corey's article says the ramping down

519
00:31:55,320 --> 00:31:59,040
Speaker 3: of these subsidies comes after voters approved measure a sales

520
00:31:59,040 --> 00:32:03,160
Speaker 3: text increase that could generate a billion dollars a year

521
00:32:03,480 --> 00:32:09,400
Speaker 3: to address the homelessness crisis. What a phrase. Yes, they're

522
00:32:09,440 --> 00:32:15,640
Speaker 3: addressing the crisis, they're not getting people off the streets.

523
00:32:18,480 --> 00:32:20,720
Speaker 3: In fact, you can't get them off the streets unless

524
00:32:20,720 --> 00:32:26,680
Speaker 3: you force them into mental health or drug treatment, or

525
00:32:26,720 --> 00:32:30,040
Speaker 3: you force the criminals into jail. Unless you do that,

526
00:32:30,240 --> 00:32:34,520
Speaker 3: it's there is no there's no good days coming. Karen

527
00:32:34,520 --> 00:32:38,920
Speaker 3: Bass refuses to Supreme Court says you can do it.

528
00:32:38,920 --> 00:32:40,880
Speaker 3: They have no right to sleep in the street. Karen

529
00:32:40,920 --> 00:32:43,880
Speaker 3: Bass says, I don't care. Kevin Newsom says you got

530
00:32:43,880 --> 00:32:46,640
Speaker 3: to get them off the street. Bass replies, I don't care.

531
00:32:46,960 --> 00:32:48,840
Speaker 3: Trump said this week you got to get them off

532
00:32:48,880 --> 00:32:52,720
Speaker 3: the street. Bass's answer, I don't care. She doesn't care.

533
00:32:54,440 --> 00:32:59,760
Speaker 3: Two billion dollars missing, Bass says, I don't care. And

534
00:32:59,800 --> 00:33:04,480
Speaker 3: now there's whining from the parasite class that some of

535
00:33:04,480 --> 00:33:06,120
Speaker 3: this money's being cut off. Well, there's gonna be a

536
00:33:06,120 --> 00:33:09,040
Speaker 3: lot of money cut off when once Trump turns off

537
00:33:09,040 --> 00:33:18,240
Speaker 3: the federal faucet. We'll get into the next hour. Katie Hill,

538
00:33:18,320 --> 00:33:22,200
Speaker 3: chief executive of the United States The Union Station Homeless Services,

539
00:33:22,480 --> 00:33:26,240
Speaker 3: says the lack of funds caused her organization to pull

540
00:33:26,360 --> 00:33:30,600
Speaker 3: back several months, and so far they've turned her away

541
00:33:30,640 --> 00:33:34,080
Speaker 3: more than seven hundred homeless families seeking a place to sleep.

542
00:33:34,760 --> 00:33:40,920
Speaker 3: Its beds remain full LA Family Housing. They moved fifty

543
00:33:40,960 --> 00:33:45,080
Speaker 3: households a month from shelters to permanent housing. Now we

544
00:33:45,160 --> 00:33:48,640
Speaker 3: can't do that, see loss. It gets money from the federal, state,

545
00:33:48,680 --> 00:33:53,440
Speaker 3: and county governments, and you're supposed to get the subsidies

546
00:33:53,480 --> 00:33:56,040
Speaker 3: for two years. Can you imagine that government pays your

547
00:33:56,080 --> 00:34:05,080
Speaker 3: rent for two years. These nonprofits say they try to

548
00:34:05,120 --> 00:34:10,040
Speaker 3: help them find a job, But why why is it

549
00:34:10,120 --> 00:34:14,080
Speaker 3: so hard in this booming economy to find a job?

550
00:34:15,200 --> 00:34:18,440
Speaker 2: Why do you need the government to do that for you?

551
00:34:20,000 --> 00:34:23,640
Speaker 3: Why are we spending so much money on these people

552
00:34:23,920 --> 00:34:27,080
Speaker 3: that are absolutely incompetent at doing the basics in life.

553
00:34:28,480 --> 00:34:30,960
Speaker 3: And it seems like no matter how much money we

554
00:34:31,560 --> 00:34:34,640
Speaker 3: vomit into the system, the same people still can't get

555
00:34:34,680 --> 00:34:38,719
Speaker 3: it together. But the people at these nonprofits sure get rich.

556
00:34:40,000 --> 00:34:41,879
Speaker 3: They see, I gotta find the salaries for these people

557
00:34:41,920 --> 00:34:42,920
Speaker 3: I mentioned in the story.

558
00:34:43,280 --> 00:34:45,640
Speaker 2: But yeah, they.

559
00:34:44,880 --> 00:34:48,120
Speaker 3: Got the new tax passed in November, so it's a

560
00:34:48,160 --> 00:34:50,680
Speaker 3: billion dollars a year. But they're cutting the budgets and

561
00:34:50,719 --> 00:34:52,680
Speaker 3: they don't have money for the subsidies and there's two

562
00:34:52,719 --> 00:34:55,880
Speaker 3: billion dollars missing and nobody knows why, and the LA

563
00:34:55,960 --> 00:34:59,880
Speaker 3: Times will not report on it. Andrew Corey not interested

564
00:35:01,520 --> 00:35:03,719
Speaker 3: but we're interested. We'll tell you even if he will.

565
00:35:04,000 --> 00:35:08,560
Speaker 3: Michael Monk's coming on next Yes, the weird fetish chattis

566
00:35:08,600 --> 00:35:12,960
Speaker 3: Han and Hilda Salise. When law enforcement wear masks, they

567
00:35:12,960 --> 00:35:17,279
Speaker 3: get all upset and jittery. They don't like that the

568
00:35:17,320 --> 00:35:20,440
Speaker 3: ice agents were wearing masks, and so they want to

569
00:35:20,800 --> 00:35:24,040
Speaker 3: issue some kind of I don't know what, an ordinance

570
00:35:24,080 --> 00:35:25,760
Speaker 3: that's going to ban them from wearing masks.

571
00:35:25,880 --> 00:35:26,840
Speaker 4: Huh.

572
00:35:26,920 --> 00:35:28,719
Speaker 3: You noticed they didn't want to ban the masks of

573
00:35:28,760 --> 00:35:32,759
Speaker 3: the Palestinian rioters at UCLA. Huh, that never came up.
