May 1, 2025

The John Kobylt Show Hour 3 (05/01) - John is joined by ABC’s Alex Stone to break down the looming Real ID requirements, explaining why it's taken so long and what you'll need to do to ensure your ID meets the new federal standards. Then, John questions the effectiveness of today's disruptive May Day rallies and a bizarre 'die-in' protest at LA City Hall against transportation cuts, noting how ironically the city has even managed to lose money issuing parking tickets. He revisits the baffling story of California Democrats blocking a bill that would have made buying teenagers for sex a felony, and speaks with Assemblywoman Alexandria Macedo about how this important legislation fell apart. Finally, John dives into LA's critical budget crisis—revealing how Mayor Bass has blown through the city’s funds on failed homeless programs, leaving fire and police departments facing dangerous cutbacks.
