Speaker 1 (00:00):
If I am six forty, you're listening to the John
and Ken Show on demand on the iHeartRadio app. We're
on the radio from one until four, and then after
four o'clock you can listen to the John and Ken
on demand podcast on the iHeart app.

Speaker 2 (00:15):
And it is the entire show all over again. Yeah,
and I'll tell you what.

Speaker 3 (00:19):
The Moistline is going to be coming back for the
first time in a couple of weeks, so we'd like
some fresh calls. You want to leave a message to
do it with the iHeartRadio app, the microphone icon or
call the Moistline phone number one eight seven seven moist
eighty six handy. The word is in the name of
the number one eight seven seven sixty six four seven
eight eight six. Well, we begin the show with a

(00:40):
story that of course is once again not headline news
and a lot of websites around the country, but it
isn't a few places and it looks big.

Speaker 1 (00:49):
It's the migrant surge.

Speaker 3 (00:51):
Yeah, everybody gave up on this story back, you know,
when they were covering it a couple of months ago
when that help order was expiring and it came big news.
But the surge is so big that we're going to
tell you. There's a story this afternoon that they have
closed the legal entry the port of entry in El Paso,

(01:12):
Texas because they need those border agents to move over
to the other places where the migrants are crossing in
huge numbers. Apparently footage has come out showing two thousand
migrants crossing in a place called Eagle Pass, Texas, nearly
five hundred miles away. In El Paso, seventeen hundred migrants

(01:33):
crossed in just twenty four hours. So the El Paso
port of entry with Mexico was shut down because personnel
at that crossing are being diverted.

Speaker 1 (01:41):
That's right to assist with the massive surge. Only illegal
immigration is being allowed right now. Legal immigration has been
shut off.

Speaker 3 (01:49):
Well, we thought with the app that people were just
using that to make their way there and claim asylum
and then get a place in the US. But apparently
the smuggling operations are still huge to bring people in
here through other memes.

Speaker 1 (02:01):
Well, one thing I heard this morning is that the
drug cartels have intentionally flooded the zone with migrants in
order to cause chaos, cause a shutdown so that they
can then divert large crowds.

Speaker 2 (02:15):
Over the border illegally.

Speaker 1 (02:17):
See, it's much more effective, much more cost effective and
time effective, you know, to send everybody over the border
rather than stand in line and go through the paperwork
to declare asylum. Right, So if you look at the
immigrants as product, the cartels who are charging these people

(02:38):
thousands of dollars can move much more product illegally. I
just saw on Fox they had video of a chain
of illegal aliens crossing the river together. They were all
holding hands and carefully going step by step across the river.

(02:59):
And they're getting now like almost ten thousand a day.
A New York City has been screaming about one hundred
and ten thousand totally in New York. They're getting ten
thousand a day at the Texas Mexico border. I'm looking
at these pictures on the Daily Mail website of people,

(03:20):
as you said, just flooding over rivers and whatever crossings
they get into. Of course, if you don't know, Texas
has the most massive border with Mexico, so there's a
lot to cover there. I think it's over one thousand miles.
So this is why it's become a key port of entry.
The story that goes with this this afternoon. That is
apparently we have had the fourteenth bus of migrants arriving

(03:43):
from Texas to downtown Los Angeles. This is the fourteenth
arrival since June fourteenth, so it's three months. But again,
there's only about forty people on a bus, So what
are we talking about. It's nearly four hundred, just hundreds
of migrants. It's an insignificant amount. Well, the real stories
at the border right now. And I heard Eric Adams

(04:05):
of New York City screaming again, and he makes me laugh.
He is such a foolish little baby now crying and wailing.
It's like all these sanctuary city guys and women who
run the big cities. It's New York, it's Washington, Chicago,
San Francisco, La.

Speaker 2 (04:22):
They're squealing away.

Speaker 1 (04:25):
Abbott, the Texas governor has given New York City ten
percent of the migrants ten percent. The other ninety percent
either came from the federal government or they're coming on
their own because they hear you have a right to
shelter in New York, so you know you're going to
get a room now. So there's a tendency to look
at migrants and somehow being stupid.

Speaker 2 (04:47):
Now they're not. They've got.

Speaker 1 (04:51):
Cell phones, they've got smartphones, and they're well educated by
the drug cartel. The drug cartel tells them, hey, you
go to New York City, right to shelter. Of course
they've run out of shelter. But you know, the drug
cartels are very good at serving their customers. And these people,
oh the cartels their lives after they land in America

(05:15):
because the cartels are charging them ten thousand dollars or
more for themselves and their family, and most of these
people don't have it. They have to work it off,
and then they have to send money back to the cartel.
And if you don't send money to the cartel, the
cartel comes and gets you, or they get your family
back in the home country.

Speaker 2 (05:36):
So they own you.

Speaker 1 (05:37):
You're like an indentured servant to them for the rest
of your life until you pay off your debt.

Speaker 3 (05:41):
There's a couple of New York City politicians, they're actually
state senators, that they want new taxes on New Yorkers
to pay for the migrant crisis. Wow, that's going to
go over well.

Speaker 1 (05:51):
Of course they do, as if they haven't driven out,
they have driven out thousands and thousands of wealthier taxpayers
in New York. It's cost the city billions of dollars
and more are gonna leave. People are mobile down. They
can work from anywhere, especially wealthy people. At the very least.
You can move to a New Jersey or Connecticut, or

(06:14):
or go out to Long Island. You don't have to
live in New York City anymore and be abused like this.

Speaker 2 (06:19):
And you're gonna see they're gonna leave. And who wants?

Speaker 1 (06:22):
Who wants all the illegal aliens in your local public school?
I heard they got nineteen thousand of these illegal alien
children in the schools. That's not compatible. They don't speak
the language, that doesn't work. The kids are already reeling
from being shut down by the pandemic for a year
and a half. Now you've got you got, You've got

(06:44):
tens of thousands of children who can't speak English crammed
into your class.

Speaker 2 (06:48):
Yeah, yea, yay. Who wants to live there? Who wants
to raise a family there?

Speaker 3 (06:53):
Remember the big story a couple of years ago with
these migrant caravans were making their way to the US
Mexico border. Generally they were people walking. Sometimes there were
a little carts and stuff and maybe a.

Speaker 2 (07:05):
Car or two.

Speaker 3 (07:06):
But the image is that went viral over the weekend
and we have some of the audio. Was a train
full of migrants. If you haven't seen this, it's pretty
amazing because you know, it's open top on the train
cars and they're all just sticking out there and they're
all waving. It's called a Ferromex train. It's bursting with migrants,

(07:27):
set of a place called Zacatecas and it's heading to
our southern border. Here's in the audio some of the
excited migrants. It's the migrant train.

Speaker 4 (07:42):
So they got sock cheering as they passed the person
taking the video. Yeah, I mean I could think of
remember those videos we used to see an India people
all crowded on top of the trains and stuff like that.

Speaker 1 (07:56):
Well, it's missing of the boo boozellas and this would
be a soccer crowd.

Speaker 2 (08:00):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (08:01):
So there is no way that this has ended as
a crisis. Although media coverage has tailed off in the
last six months.

Speaker 1 (08:08):
The Biden crowd doesn't look at it as a crisis.
It's not a crisis to them. This is what they
want to happen. They're not staying up late at night
worrying about millions of people coming over the border.

Speaker 3 (08:23):
Well, they are because it does matter to voters that
are not clued into their stupid idea that we're an
open border country. So they have even Democrat voters who
don't like this. Well, and I'm not going to take
kindly to this. So they have to figure ou how
to manage that side of this.

Speaker 1 (08:35):
But politically they have to care now. But up until
this point it didn't matter to them. They could have
stopped this on day one, they encouraged it. But Biden
hasn't gone to any of the Central American leaders or
the Mexican leaders to stop this thing.

Speaker 2 (08:51):
Right. No, No, I'm convinced.

Speaker 1 (08:54):
They're all terrified in the cartels, that the cartels are
so well armed, and so I'm starting to think that
all these politicians in Mexico and Central America are afraid
of getting assassinated if they do anything to stop it.
And I don't know, maybe the American government in Biden
they're afraid too. I think they're all terrified because the
most powerful force from here through Central America is the

(09:18):
drug cartels. They're more powerful than any of the governments,
including ours, because we're not going to use our power.
We're just gonna let it happen. So it's a weird
situation when you have this weird you have this violent
paramilitary army really that's now in control of all the

(09:39):
trafficking of not only people but drugs. I mean, most
of the drug supplies coming through the same cartels. That's
what we're going to talk about next. Two stories. One
of them is.

Speaker 3 (09:50):
Our own lovely MacArthur Park, John near downtown Los Angeles,
which apparently has become a fentinyl dumping ground that's overwhelmed.
And a new story out of San Francisco about the
number of overdose deaths, a huge jump in overdose deaths
in that city.

Speaker 2 (10:06):
More coming up.

Speaker 3 (10:07):
Johnny KENKFI AM six point forty Live Everywhere iHeartRadio app.

Speaker 5 (10:11):
You're listening to John and Ken on demand from KFI
AM six forty.

Speaker 1 (10:18):
Round the air from one until four and then after
four o'clock John and Kenn on demand the podcast. You
can hear the show again. It doesn't get any better,
but you can hear it again. Okay, that's an honest
way to put it.

Speaker 3 (10:29):
I don't think it changes much, no, not from what
it's what's going on right now.

Speaker 2 (10:33):
If it stanks at one o'clock, it stanks, you know
it's six and the evening.

Speaker 5 (10:37):
Now.

Speaker 3 (10:37):
Another reason why the borders are being overwhelmed with people
right now is a great way to distract border patrol
from bringing the drugs in.

Speaker 1 (10:44):
That's another little.

Speaker 3 (10:45):
Tactic that the cartels use, and we're seeing another huge surge.
It's actually been going on for weeks. We haven't covered
it much until we saw some stories today, So that
brings us to fentanyl and fentanyl addiction. Of course, the
Hacks and Sacraments have no interest in toughening any laws
dealing with fentanyl dealing, so we're stuck with people dying.

(11:07):
And Southern California News Group did a series of articles
on lovely MacArthur Park. Now, when KFI used to be
in Koreatown, we weren't far from MacArthur Park and we
actually went down there a couple of times, and.

Speaker 1 (11:18):
A beautiful park with a very pretty small lake, and
I've never understood why they've let it become such a
disgusting cesspool. Now, somebody left a cake out in the rain.
I mean, it should be it should be a jewel.

Speaker 3 (11:34):
Apparently it's now consumed with fentanyl sales and consumption. It
looks a bit like some of those neighborhoods in San
Francisco the pictures that the Southern California Newsgroup took. This
one says a man passes out in a Los Angeles
alley near MacArthur Park after using fentanyl as others watched
to make sure he was not overdosing.

Speaker 1 (11:56):
That's that harm reduction.

Speaker 2 (11:57):
Bs that we talk about a lot.

Speaker 3 (11:59):
You can see these left hand I think is a
needle or something he's gripping in his left hand as
he just lies there.

Speaker 1 (12:04):
This is so absurd that you've got thousands of people
taking fitting on the streets and they're dying.

Speaker 3 (12:13):
And all the politicians in the story say the same thing.
I've reinvigorated my fight in our district's fight to make
sure we can tackle this area.

Speaker 1 (12:20):
That's crownd zero for overdose? Is this? This council member
unices her Nandez represents MacArthur Park.

Speaker 2 (12:26):
She's a communist.

Speaker 1 (12:28):
She calls him herself a democratic socialist, but if you
go and read their websites, she's a communist. And she's
not very bright because she was the one when when
the city council was discussing the theft of catalytic converters,
if there was a way for the electric car companies
to make the catalytic converters theft proof, yes, not knowing

(12:51):
that electric cars don't need catalytic converters.

Speaker 3 (12:54):
What's great about that story too, is actually all part
of her like long term agenda, because she wants the
city to have all evs as part of its fleet.
So she was making sure that, well, we're also protecting
our fleet, our growing fleet of evs. We don't want
their catalytic converters stolen, and of course they don't have
catl converters, shaky units. To sit down, she is preposterously,
comically ignorant. She doesn't know a thing. I'd be surprised

(13:17):
if she knows her own name.

Speaker 1 (13:18):
And so she starts battling to the report about we're
invigorating our fight. There's no fight going on. There's people
this this story which is in you in the La
Daily News and all the other.

Speaker 3 (13:32):
Suburban California news group. Yeah, I mean, well, here's their solutions.

Speaker 1 (13:36):
We're going to get a group of stakeholders and we're
going to offer police free alternatives to respond to certain
nine one one calls, we're going to open a center
for harm reduction again that we talk about just a
few minutes ago.

Speaker 2 (13:48):
This idea that.

Speaker 3 (13:49):
There's there's a mobile overdose prevention team, an overdose prevention campaign,
and a new street cleaning team.

Speaker 1 (13:57):
That's her strategies.

Speaker 3 (13:58):
Okay, let's nothing about finding the fentanyl dealers and rounding
them up and.

Speaker 2 (14:04):
Killing them.

Speaker 1 (14:05):
That necessary because they're the ones that are pushing these
drugs that are addicting these people to die. Here's a
snapshot of one guy that they profiled in the original story, Elliott.

Speaker 2 (14:13):
He's twenty four years old.

Speaker 1 (14:15):
And this guy spends his days injecting fentinyl and shoplifting.
He shoplifts, then he sells the shoplift goods to street
vendors around MacArthur Park. So it's a whole crime circle there,
so a virtuous circle of crime. He steals the stuff,
gives it to those vendors, which those vendors shouldn't be legal,

(14:38):
but they're allowed to sell, and they sell. Their act
is the fence, and he gets to buy his fentanyl,
and he says that the fentinyl is fifty times more
potent than heroin. A heroin high last six hours, but
fentinyl you'll start feeling with raws within two to three

(15:01):
hours of smoking the drug. And Elliott says, I've tried
quitting fentanyl. I thought kicking heroin was bad. Uh uh, No,
I could kick heroin. Kicking this not gonna happen. Quitting
cold turkey would physically kill me. Fever, vomiting, diarrhea, bone pain. Oh,
and there's limited access to treatment, not that a guy

(15:26):
like this goes for treatment, so he resorts to extreme
measures to get the fentanyl. And by the way, the
shoplifting is called boosting. They have a cute little nickname
in the streets before, they call it boosting. Yeah, so
it's a complete breakdown of civilization where.

Speaker 3 (15:40):
You have this in the story. All the stores around
Magarthur Park, the poor little shopkeepers are constantly being badgered
by a shoplifting because people are trying to get money
to buy fentanyl, So they're shoplifting stuff to go sell
it to get money to buy more fentanyl. Yeah, that's
what That's this whole cycle they got going on there.

Speaker 1 (15:55):
And it's an immigrant community seventy percent or Hispanic Latino
fifty percent born outside the US. One third of them
lived below the poverty line. Here's the big dream. Come
to America and watch people inject fentanyl and die on
your doorstep. That's the good life they're coming for here.

Speaker 3 (16:12):
All right, We got more coming up, Johnny ed KFI
AM six forty live everywhere in the iHeartRadio app.

Speaker 5 (16:18):
You're listening to John and Ken on demand from KFI
AM sixty.

Speaker 2 (16:25):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (16:25):
San Francisco is on track to have about one hundred
people die of overdoses a month. They just recorded eighty
four deaths in August, of which sixty six involved what
we've been talking about, fentanyl. That is the second month
of a row of record high fentanyl deaths, So we're
dealing with something very serious. They even showed to jump

(16:45):
in our friend zilazine John, the animal tranquilizer that they
referred to as crank that has also been causing open
wounds and sores on people and is highly addictive and
it can't be treated with narcan because it's not an opioid.

Speaker 1 (17:00):
Do you know, have you've seen what happens to people
on ziolenzine. They they freeze wherever they're standing and then
they start to slightly tilt and and they look like
a sculpture. And I guess eventually they fall over and die. Well,
are they breathing when they stand there? Or yeah, they're

(17:21):
they're they're breathing, and they're they're tilted and their head
is is bent to the right or the left, and
it's the strangest thing.

Speaker 2 (17:30):
Or they're stooped over sometimes be looking.

Speaker 3 (17:33):
It paralyzes them in a way. Wow, well, uh, I
love this soft play on the story by The Chronicle.
San Francisco health officials are pushing ahead on their first
of a kind overdose prevention plan that they released a
year ago, but the plan is yet to turn around
the devastating trend. They're offering increased access to medications a

(17:56):
treated diiction, and are expanding access.

Speaker 1 (17:58):
To pharmacies and clinics as well as pushing that's it.
The response again from.

Speaker 3 (18:02):
This crowd is basically, let's just stand by and I
hope you can stop them from dying.

Speaker 2 (18:08):
And yeah, and then and they watch them die.

Speaker 1 (18:10):
The people who run San Francisco and Los Angeles really
are murderers. All the people in power here because they
know better. They know this drug kills you, and that
unless you force them into treatment. Unless you strap them
up on a gurney and take them somewhere, they're gonna
die in the streets.

Speaker 2 (18:30):
So you know Karen bass is complicit in this.

Speaker 1 (18:35):
Unics, Hernandez, all the San Francisco political leaders beyond I
mean again.

Speaker 3 (18:44):
One of our biggest guests this year was Sam Canonis,
who was a writer and the book His most recent
book is The Least of Us. He knows a lot
about the power of fentalel addiction, and he says, without
some kind of consequences, people are I'm not going to
get off fentanyl, he says. Even throwing them in jail
where they're not they don't have access to the drug

(19:05):
can help, and eventually they might turn for a treatment
program in the jail. But if you're just going to
count on them to come to you one day and say, Okay,
I'm ready to change my life. No, fentanyl is too strong, well,
it's going to take them down.

Speaker 1 (19:17):
They won't come back because, go back to what was
printed in the Southern California News Group story, within two
to three hours, you have these intense cravings and they
spend their entire day looking for fentidel. That's your day.
Your day is shoplifting, taking the merchandise to get cash,

(19:39):
and then exchanging the cash for more fentanyl. But you've
got to do that within two or three days. In fact,
the guy they profiled in the story, Ellet Elliott, says
he makes four to five trips a day stealing to
make enough money. What he says is to get well,
otherwise you end up with, you know, the diarrhea and

(20:02):
the vomiting and the terrible pain. And it's the most
excruciating withdrawal symptoms imaginable. So what do you think people
are going to do. They're never going to get off
the stuff. There's not enough time. The clock is ticking.
As soon as you get your fentanyl hit. When you
start to recover a little bit and the high begins

(20:23):
to wear off, you've got to run and steal stuff.
Then you've got to run and cash in the stuff
you've stolen. Then you've got to run and buy more
fentinel before you start having vomiting and diarrhea. They end
up with swollen legs, skin infections, open wounds.

Speaker 2 (20:41):
All right.

Speaker 1 (20:42):
I mean, nobody, nobody would treat an animal this way.
Nobody would treat a cat or a dog or any
other animal this way. So I think the political officials
we have, and Karen bass is right at the top,
she's in charge, are cruel. They're cruel and inhumane, and
it's gross what they allow to happen. They don't treat

(21:03):
them as human beings. I think they have given up
and they give us a lot of flowery language, a
lot of fake compassion language, but in their actions they're
letting them. They're literally rotting and dying. These people have
if they have xylozine in it, they have open wounds, flesh.

Speaker 3 (21:21):
These drugs were talking about don't respond to harm reduction programs.

Speaker 2 (21:25):
That's it.

Speaker 3 (21:26):
That's they have to get off of that. It's like
the housing first answer to homelessness. You've got such mental
illness and substance abuse problems that you can't just throw
somebody into housing and solve the problem. It's the same
thing with the drug addiction. You can't just stand by
with narcan and expect to solve the problem because this
these are highly addictive drugs that these people won't get
off of unless they suffer some kind of consequences to

(21:48):
make them come around.

Speaker 2 (21:49):
Well, if they're they're.

Speaker 1 (21:50):
Solutions have all failed. They're not solutions. They're anti solutions.
They make everything worse. They're wrong about all their ideas.

Speaker 3 (22:00):
But if we're going to get a measure on next
year's ballot thanks to this Reginald Joan Sawyer, remember him,
mister Public Safety Committee. His district, by the way, includes
sub skid row in downtown Los Angeles. Something called the
Fighting Fentanyl Bond Act of twenty twenty four. Oh, they
just want money for public awareness, campaign, intervention education.

Speaker 1 (22:20):
Yeah, all the nonprofit groups who know Reggie Jones Sawyer
are going to get an annual check to do to
do a lot of stuff that will have zero impact,
more programs that will fail if you don't force them
into treatment. They're simply going to die in the streets.
They're dying at the rate of two thousand a year now,
just in LA two thousand a year. Reggie Jones Sawyer

(22:41):
doesn't care about a single one of those souls, but
he will reward his connected, politically connected friends with contracts
for their newly formed nonprofit organization that's right, that will
battle the fentanyl public awareness. Do you think that the
people who are injecting fentinel six times a day are

(23:03):
not aware of Fentinel.

Speaker 2 (23:06):
I don't, I don't public awareness for who.

Speaker 3 (23:09):
We got more coming up, Johnny Ken kf I AM
six forty.

Speaker 1 (23:13):
We're live everywhere iHeartRadio app.

Speaker 5 (23:16):
You're listening to John and Ken on demand from KFI
AM six forty.

Speaker 3 (23:24):
We'll be embracing our moist Fine listeners once again this Friday,
just three days away, because we were both not here
last Friday.

Speaker 2 (23:30):
You can embrace them. I'm not touching that.

Speaker 1 (23:32):
Yeah, it's kind of a symbolic statement.

Speaker 3 (23:35):
Ition you use the iHeartRadio app to leave us a
message the microphone Icona called the toll free number one
eight seven seven moist eighty six one seven seven six
sixty four seven eight eighty six. The end of cash
bell is coming at the end of the month. Steve
Gregory will fill us at statewide.

Speaker 1 (23:51):
This is really bad. Yeah, this is really bad. Here's
a teaser. Yeah, guy steals your car, no bail. That
is right because that is a non serious, non violent felony.
So people are going to steal cars and not spend
a minute in Jake. It's just just property. So what hey,

(24:13):
let me go, John, what is wrong with you? You
must embrace this new society we have do you want
to live?

Speaker 3 (24:20):
Nothing is ownership anymore in Los Angeles County.

Speaker 2 (24:24):
Your car is open to anybody who wants it.

Speaker 1 (24:27):
Anybody walking by your house steals your car.

Speaker 2 (24:31):
Fair game, Get investage, no bail. They're out. Yep.

Speaker 1 (24:36):
Hopefully they'll come back to face whatever consequences.

Speaker 2 (24:39):
Why would they do that.

Speaker 3 (24:40):
Well, eventually too, knowing our criminal justice system, it will
just be a misdemeanor and a citation. So right, all right,
So so auto theft is going to be legal.

Speaker 5 (24:51):
All right.

Speaker 1 (24:51):
We'll be talking to Steve Gregory after two o'clock on.

Speaker 2 (24:54):
That's total anarchy, total destruction.

Speaker 3 (24:58):
A lot of people's jaws dropped over this story. We
mentioned yesterday, the F thirty five fighter jet that was
worth Now they're saying one hundred million dollars that disappeared.
The pilot ejected for still unknown reasons. There was some
mishap aboard. This is in South Carolina, by the way,

(25:19):
and the jet went missing.

Speaker 1 (25:21):
In fact, they actually asked the public, did you see
an F thirty five fly by your neighborhood.

Speaker 3 (25:28):
This is the joint base at Charleston, South Carolina. And
well they did find it. They're now at the debris
field cleaning up, thankfully. It just crashed in the forest. Yes,
for twenty eight hours. It was missing right now. It
ended up two hours northeast of the Joint Base Charleston.

Speaker 1 (25:46):
If you leave your phone behind in the restaurant, you
can you can find it immediately.

Speaker 3 (25:51):
Yeah, they did have a transponder on the jet. They
don't know why it didn't work. There was some kind
of malfunction had something to do with it. What about
before that, after the pilot ejected he should have reported
it in I mean, he didn't.

Speaker 1 (26:03):
Crash for a while. Aren't backups? They don't track these
things on. I don't understand this story. I mean, if
it's all a lot of people don't. They're asking a
lot of questions about the whole program today. What's going
on with this?

Speaker 3 (26:15):
Well, this was the entire F thirty five program is
on track to cost nearly two trillion dollars over the
lifetime of the plane. So this is very important and
they can't figure out why this happened.

Speaker 1 (26:25):
It's just supposed to be one of our best stealth
fighter jets.

Speaker 3 (26:30):
Considered the most lethal, survivable, and connected fighter jet in
the world, is what it is. Uh, did you see
the the Babylon b which is just satire. They had
a funny headline. Pilots seemed wandering in forest with key
fob going beep, beep beep. This is beyond embarrassing. Just

(26:53):
now ordered a two day pause and flight operations and
no kidding, let's give.

Speaker 1 (26:56):
You any confidence if we get attacked by China. Let's
make you feel good. I have no idea. They're asking
people to stay away from the debris field.

Speaker 2 (27:06):
Uh.

Speaker 3 (27:06):
There's also some concerns, according to a story in the
Daily Mail, of hacking.

Speaker 1 (27:11):
Imagine that if a foreign entity was able to hack.

Speaker 2 (27:14):
It, oh yeah, and figure out how the how it works.

Speaker 3 (27:17):
Yeah, these these things operate, and whether or not they
could do something about the control of these jets or
or whatever. But that would be horrifying if that were true.
But there was a story apparently a few years back
that there were hacking concerns. They're not saying that anything
to do with what happened with this particular jet the
other day.

Speaker 2 (27:35):
But lucky it crashed in a field. I mean this thing, imagine.

Speaker 3 (27:39):
Imaginef it's it fell in a bunch of houses. Yeah,
if it fell in a place where there's a lot
of people. That would have been huge, huge problem.

Speaker 1 (27:50):
So it's it says, well, there's there's a and I
don't know what this acronym stands for, but there's a
watch drug dog group called POGO And according to the email,
they had a report in twenty nineteen that said nearly
every software enabled weapon system that they tested between twenty
twelve and twenty seventeen can be hacked, including the F

(28:11):
thirty five. Despite years of patches and upgrades, the F
thirty five's most combat crucial computer systems continue to malfunction.

Speaker 2 (28:21):
Not good. Yeah, and.

Speaker 1 (28:24):
It says that cybersecurity testing shows that many previously confirmed
vulnerabilities have not been fixed, so enemy hackers could shut
down the network, steal secret data from on board computers,
and prevent it from flying.

Speaker 3 (28:41):
Wow, the Russians, who knows what? All the hackers of
the world. What kind of boobs do we have run
in the military here? Does anything work anymore?

Speaker 1 (28:52):
It seems like nothing works.

Speaker 3 (28:54):
I just believe that the way things are now, if
something can be hacked, there's probably at there they can
hack it. There's just so many people on the in
the world who are working at this stuff, just even
as a hobby.

Speaker 1 (29:07):
They should hack their way into things. We should go
back to the old system. Yeah, we need to go
back to the system where we don't have so much
reliance on computers and software and technology, and that that
could end up becoming the day.

Speaker 2 (29:18):
How come the offense always wins.

Speaker 1 (29:20):
It doesn't seem like we have defense either either the
government or corporations. Whenever these outside hackers want to do damage,
they do it. They get away with everything.

Speaker 2 (29:32):
All right.

Speaker 3 (29:33):
When we return, we're going to talk about what's coming.
On October first, Los Angeles County will have new zero
bail guidelines. Again, this is part of the agenda to
make sure people do not go to jail, even for
a short period of time after they've been arrested for
a crime before they are actually judged. So we'll get

(29:53):
the latest on this from Steve Gregory. Can't find news
when we come back. No bail for stealing your car?
