Speaker 2 (00:38):
This is the Jody Jones Show on Bourton ninety six
seven and day. I'm fourteen hundred.

Speaker 3 (00:45):
Good afternoon, and welcome to the Jody Jones Show. I
am Jody Jones with my co host Frank Van Lanningham.

Speaker 4 (00:52):
Hey, guys, what's up.

Speaker 3 (00:53):
We have a whole bunch of talk about today, but
I want to give you guys something to kind of
chew on a little bit and then we'll probably talk
about a little bit more of it next week. Deportation
without due processes just called kidnapping. Well, I'm gonna give
you something to think about. Immigration without due process is illegal.

(01:14):
So just chew on that for a little while and
we're gonna kind of talk about a little more that
next week. But right now we have Governor Gavin Newsom,
and of all his wisdom, is wanting to raise well,
he's going to raise taxes on our gas. What do
you guys think about that? It is absolutely ridiculous, isn't it.

(01:35):
We already pay the highest, absolute highest taxes in the
United States of America and now he wants to raise it.

Speaker 1 (01:45):
It.

Speaker 3 (01:45):
They're predicting sixty five cents more a gallon by the
end of two thousands, and this is going to take
place like right now, like what I'm saying July first, Frank,
what do you think about that?

Speaker 5 (01:59):
Buddy?

Speaker 4 (01:59):
Well, I'm not sure what this petroleum issue is going
to do to hair Gail. It could be a bit
of a problem. He might even feel the pinch. But
I you know, a lot of us we're going to
complain that we're spending more on gasoline, We're spending more
on you know, I run a lot of diesel. But
it's not just what it's going to take out of
my family, your family, that poor single mother who's a waitress.

(02:22):
Everything you touch came in a truck. So the cost
of trucking goes up. When transportation goes up, the goods
and services go up. The production of potatoes, walnuts, you
name it, cotton, I don't care what it is. Every
single thing getting produced, even if you're buying electricity, the
electricity is going to get more expensive. Anything we're doing

(02:44):
that has any measure of energy attached to it is
going to go up. So it's not just that my
gasoline's going to cost more, My potato chips will cost more,
My big Max's going to cost more. Everything is going
to cost more. In the state of California. And if
you think about it, Jody there, they're telling us that, well,
it's because of the those refineries they're they're they're leaving. Well, yes,

(03:06):
some of them are, but if you think about it, Idaho,
two of them come to mind, Arizona, neither one of
which really produce any energy, neither one refine any energy.
And yet they're paying three dollars and thirty cents a gallon.
And then they're saying, well, California doesn't have refineries is
going to cost we newsflash, those guys don't have it either,

(03:28):
and theirs is cheaper. This is all about taxes. And honestly,
I have to give great praise to the state of
California for dumbing down the people to the point where
they swallow this like pablem.

Speaker 3 (03:41):
You know, I agree with you, Frank. You know California
refineries they're closing due to a combination of factors in
my opinion, including, uh, just tough tough environmental regulations, rising
compliance costs these things. All the stuff is man made, right,
it's a one percent men made and and and you know,

(04:03):
with the shift towards the electric vehicles is just absolutely absurd.

Speaker 5 (04:07):
We all know it. And and it's kind of like this.

Speaker 3 (04:10):
I explained this to Frank a little earlier off air,
and we're talking about just politicians and how they do it.
It's kind of like this when when when they do
things like this, they're putting the carriage before the horse
and it's directly affecting us. They're predicting it's going to

(04:33):
be eight dollars and forty three cents a gallon. Can
you imagine that eight dollars and forty three cents a gallon.

Speaker 4 (04:42):
This is not sustainable for people, you know, when when
when they start doing that, it affects everything else.

Speaker 5 (04:50):
It affects everything else. Yep.

Speaker 3 (04:52):
And and it's like a chain reaction, you know. And
why are they doing this? You have to ask yourself, right,
they're doing this because they're broke.

Speaker 4 (05:02):
Well, also they've been told to Yeah, these Democrats and
we're talking to Squires in the studio right before the show.
Isn't it uncanny how every single Democrat votes in lockstep.
Republicans were ideological purists and intellectuals, and so we want

(05:22):
everything to be perfect our way. We're so caught up
on something being perfect. Those guys play like a good
hockey team. They bat that puck around pop pop pop
pop boom right into the net and they all go
in that direction. But for some stupid reason, Jody, we
get people that want to hang it up. And you know,
it doesn't matter whether it's the big beautiful bill or

(05:43):
the gas debate that they're having in Sacramento. Democrats always
seem to come together and vote as a block, and
that's why they win. We're not a team, They're a team.

Speaker 3 (05:55):
You know, you're right, we should all kick the ball,
you know, one way we were the same jersey and
you know, and the big beautiful bill. Let's talk about
that really quick briefly. You know, not everything. You're not
gonna agree on everything. I mean, nobody agrees on everything,
you know. And is there a lot in there that

(06:18):
is good?

Speaker 5 (06:18):
Yes?

Speaker 3 (06:19):
Is there a lot in there that's bad? You know, yeah,
there's there's That's the big debate right now, you know,
the the projected raise, you know, increase in the you
know what I mean, Yeah, the the increase in the
national debt. That's the big thing right now. That's what
everybody's afraid of. But here's the thing that's all projected.

(06:43):
I get it. I get why people are, you know,
like Ram Paul. I love that guy. I really like him.
And he's one of them that's saying, hey, we need
to really look at this. And he's right, we do
need to look at it. But to what extent, you know,
are we going to hold it up to we're not

(07:03):
going to pass the bill or are we going to
you know, because here's the thing. It's one thing to
hold it up, it's another thing to say, Okay, wait
a minute, let's see what we're going to do. What
are we going to do here?

Speaker 4 (07:18):
Yeah, you're totally right. Think of this as a pinata.
It's a big, beautiful pinata. It's got lots of different
kinds of candy in it, Jody me, I really don't
like abazabas that much, and there's a few of them
in there. Well, I don't want to hit the pinata
because it has some abas aba.

Speaker 5 (07:34):
Dude, how do you not like abasabas?

Speaker 4 (07:36):
I don't know. They're gross, what they're disgusting. I wouldn't
feed ants.

Speaker 5 (07:41):
I look at you totally different now, f Oh my gosh,
it's just.

Speaker 4 (07:45):
Now a root beer barrel. Don't get me started.

Speaker 5 (07:47):
But okay, we agree on that, and I like that too.

Speaker 4 (07:51):
But think about it. You may not like everything in
the pinata, but there's more good than bad in there
for you, and you know what, let's push this through.
We can then come back, put our winnings over here,
and we can reltigate the things we're not so happy about.
If we don't win, there's no trophy to fight over.
If we don't win, there's no pinata to eat candy

(08:15):
out of. So, folks, let's first coalesce and win. Learn
from the Democrats. Honestly, there are a bunch of filthy skunks.
There are a bunch of sellouts there, basically puppets to
the puppet master, and unfortunately a lot of Republicans too.
But I think we need to look and see what
they do and look how they win, and for once, folks,

(08:36):
let's just win.

Speaker 3 (08:37):
What's the problem, please, I know, you know it's kind
of like this gas thing, you know, with in California
and govern Neussom.

Speaker 5 (08:46):
So here's what happened.

Speaker 3 (08:49):
Every Democrat in California voted yes on this tax bill
or on the gas tax hike, everyone right, and even
the ones and and you know they're thinking, man, this
this isn't a good thing to do, but they vote
yes anyway. So and what does Newsom do. He turns

(09:09):
around and say and says it's because of the refineries closing,
and it's the big oil companies that's doing it. And
if you believe that I have some ocean front property
in Arizona to sell you before.

Speaker 4 (09:26):
They got cheap guys, yeah, where they got cheap gas.

Speaker 3 (09:29):
It's just it's amazing to me how Governor Newsom just
keeps coming back and back and back and gas lighting
the Californian people, uh, to the point to where he's
hitting us with so many lefts. We're bagging for it, right,
It's just it's the craziest thing ever.

Speaker 5 (09:50):
But we're that.

Speaker 4 (09:50):
Stupid jody collectively, I mean, not you, not me, not
the people listening to this station. But honestly, there's a
reason why they ridicule Californians. If you go to any
other state, yes, and you say California, it's a punchline. Yeah,
everybody starts to laugh.

Speaker 5 (10:05):
Yep.

Speaker 4 (10:05):
And honestly, we need to take a good hard look
in the mirror and ask ourselves why is it that
we are the butt of everybody's joke. And the truth
is they've done a magnificent job of destroying our educational system.
They've dumbed us down. And there are many people, and
I have family members that live in Los Angeles that
live in a Bay Area, they ride public transportation. Do

(10:28):
you think they care that gases up? They're clueless. All
they know is they get a free monthly pass because
they're on WICK or food stamps or whatever, and they
get to ride the Metro for free. So you can't
tell these people about what you're paying for fuel. It
does not even register with those people, Jody. They think

(10:48):
that we should use less fuel and it would be
better if everything was electric. Yeah, because they get free
electricity too.

Speaker 5 (10:55):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (10:55):
It's just it's the craziest thing ever. I mean, you know,
we talk about it all the time, and and it's like,
what are these people doing here in California? What are
these politicians, these left wing Democrats? What are they trying
to do? What's their end goal?

Speaker 4 (11:15):
When they're winning? Jody, they are winning. Yeah, as much
as we talk. Yeah, you know, I'm sitting here in
the loser's bracket and screaming about the winner. You know
what they're They're in the winner circle, eating shrimp and
drinking champagne. Look at us. Yeah, they were sitting on
the curb blaming each other.

Speaker 3 (11:33):
They've stacked it yet, they figured out how to stack
the deck. And in one of the biggest ways they
figured it out was the elections. It's it's so ridiculous
not to you know that you don't have to show
an ID here in California to vote. You could come
in the same day and to say whoever you are
and vote. You can go you know, literally, if I

(11:53):
wanted to, I can go to ten different fifteen different
voting reach and places and vote yep, a different name,
no questions, questions, ask every I could go to fifteen
to twenty of them and vote with a different name.

Speaker 4 (12:11):
Yeah, but they don't do that.

Speaker 5 (12:13):
Yeah, they do legal aliens.

Speaker 4 (12:15):
They don't vote.

Speaker 5 (12:15):
Legal to do of course nobody does.

Speaker 4 (12:19):
And you know understand that fixing that problem would be racist, Jody,
So we can't do that.

Speaker 3 (15:19):
Hey, we're back on the Jody Jones Show. I am
Jody Jones with Frank Van Lanningham.

Speaker 5 (15:23):
So good to be back.

Speaker 3 (15:24):
We are talking about Gavin Newsom and his gas hikes
because it truly is his. You know, the We can
talk all we want about the Democrats up in Sacramento
and their super majority. You know, they come out with
some crazy, crazy bills and we will be discussing a
lot of those in the next few coming in the

(15:45):
next coming weeks, all hit on one AB twelve thirty one.
Here in a minute, I just want to talk a
little more about Gavin Newsom and his gas hike. I
just I can't believe it. It's just it blew me
away when you know he he basically said this is

(16:06):
what we need, and we all know why he's doing
it because we're broken, and you know it's this is
the best way for him to create revenue for California
is gas hikes. It's kind of like this, like they
can't take away our guns, So what do they do?
They make ammunition harder to get, they making it more expensive.

(16:28):
They make everyone have insurance on your weapon if you
have a CCW O case you shoot somebody, which that's
actually a good thing to have, but I think it
should be you know, if you want it. I don't
think you should have to have it and be pushed
to mate have it. But anyway, that's kind of what
they're doing here. They don't want you to buy, they

(16:53):
don't want you to have a gas powered car.

Speaker 4 (16:56):
Well, this makes evs look affordable. I make gas ten
dollars a gallon. Then by contrast that EV looks like
a good deal.

Speaker 3 (17:08):
Because this is tearning what Gavin Newsom's doing. There's no
doubt about it. It is bad. It's bad for California.
It's going to be bad for everybody that has contact
with Gavin Newsom and his policies. It's just the worst
possible thing you can do. Because think about this, everyone.
I want you to think about this. When gas goes

(17:30):
up to just basically unaffordable prices like it has been
in the past, it's went down, but it's always stayed
pretty high here in California.

Speaker 5 (17:41):
We all know why.

Speaker 3 (17:42):
It's it's the policies that these crazy left wing politicians
have here in California, and everything else gets worse. That's
when you go into a recession. I mean, if you
can't go anywhere, and you can't travel, you can't transport anything,
everything gets bad.

Speaker 4 (17:59):
It truly does. And what we're seeing here, folks, is
a sanctioned monopoly. They are pushing us economically rather than
you know, they've tried by executive fiat, they've tried by legislating.
Now they're doing it with economic pressure. By making gas unaffordable.

(18:19):
They basically force everybody into this electric monopoly. The first
thing I would say is, folks, by stock right now
in PG and E and Ssee, this is my financial
advice to all the rich people out there, because they're
going to be the only game in town. They're not
going anywhere. And if you look at what happened in

(18:44):
the wake of the Paradise fires, if you look what
happened in Maui, a lot of these electrical fires that
caused a lot of stuff. These companies need to recoup
a lot of losses. They're getting sued right, left and center.
They're going to allow these people to raise their rates.
So they have been for a very long time. So
it's always we the people that keep getting stuck. And
if you'll notice, I don't know if you've got friends

(19:04):
like I do that are a bunch of skid marks.
They all get free and cheap electricity. Oh I'll get
a discount on my power because I'm poor. Yeah, you
don't care about this stuff. But a guy like me
that gets a regular power bill and I put fifty
one solar panels on my property and I still pay

(19:26):
six hundred bucks a month. I'm getting no love. And
now this guy's like telling us they want to start
taxing us on the power that I'm getting from the sun.
This guy wants to literally sell me the sun. But
if you're in Los Angeles and you're on welfare, and
you're living in a free house and you're getting free
electricity and nothing costs you anything, my argument, my plea,

(19:50):
my problem falls on deaf ears.

Speaker 5 (19:53):
Yeah, well there's some rich guy over there in Valley.

Speaker 4 (19:55):
What do I care about him? You know, I ride
the electric train because and you know what, once again,
the public school system did a great job of turning
these mush brains into bigger mush brains. And they don't care.
They listen to whatever this guy says. And now you
know it's electricity good, fossil fuel bad. And we're talking

(20:18):
about the Low Carbon Fuel Standard, you know, which they
got an acronym for at the lc FS lgbt Q
element OP. This is a thing that was adopted a
while back where some think tank came up with this
idea that carbon is bad. Well, folks, carbon is one
of the basic building blocks of life, the definition of organic.

(20:42):
And we all like organic, right, especially if you're a
hairy legged liberal woman driving a Subaru with a rescue dog.
Carbon carbon is bad. No, carbon is what makes something organic.
And we all know that organic is good. Right. So
something is going to release its carbon with me or
without me. And if you derive the benefit of propulsion

(21:05):
or heat from the inevitable, that's going to happen anyway.
You'd be dumb not to take it.

Speaker 3 (21:11):
You know, Frank talking about release carbon and smush brains
AB twelve thirty one. Let me ask you this, so
I'm gonna read you something, Frank, and what do you think,
how does this sound. It's the Safer Communities through Opportunities Act.

Speaker 4 (21:30):
Oh, I like it already. Safer communities, Yeah, safer communities.
I want those through opportunities. I like the Opportunity Acts.

Speaker 3 (21:38):
Opportunities for who the criminal because this is basically what
this bill does. It's a diversion program for felons, for felonies.
For it's it's it's coming from law enforcement. This is
the craziest bill I've ever heard of. I think it's
one of its tops, the top five. Basically what it does,

(22:00):
it's going to create diversion programs to a felon. Some
means it's selling fit and al or you know, burglaries
and just it's it's amazing to me. It gives the
court this discretion to grant them a pre trial diversion program.

(22:20):
Right now, it's just for misdemeanor charges that somebody can
go into a pre trial diversion. Okay, So basically if
they go to the pre trial diversion, then they complete it.

Speaker 5 (22:30):
It basically goes away.

Speaker 4 (22:32):
Nice, you get a pre past.

Speaker 5 (22:37):
It just makes me laugh. And and.

Speaker 4 (22:41):
Why even arrest them, you know, it's why have handcuffs?
Why put them in a squad car?

Speaker 5 (22:46):
It's it's uh. I don't get it.

Speaker 3 (22:49):
I don't get these these these politicians from California, they're
all over the place.

Speaker 5 (22:58):
I don't get it.

Speaker 3 (22:59):
What what what is the purpose here to protect the criminals?

Speaker 5 (23:04):
Again?

Speaker 3 (23:05):
Like I say all the time, when these left wing,
crazy democrats write these bills like this, it breaks our
communities down. It hurts the good working class people. I
am sick and tired of seeing this happen because I'm

(23:28):
telling you everyone, it's gonna directly affect you, your family members,
your daughters, your granddaughters, your grandsons. It's gonna it's so
unsafe out there right now. And they try to tell
you it's it's suit, if it's suit, if it's not,
because they're not holding these criminals accountable.

Speaker 5 (23:46):
Then they come out with.

Speaker 3 (23:47):
A bill like this ABE twelve thirty one, the Safer
Communities Safer Communities through Opportunities Act. California's notorious of doing that.
Putt in this you know the grand stand you know
the you know what the bills they call it like.

Speaker 4 (24:09):
Oh, this is clean air and puppies.

Speaker 5 (24:11):
Yeah, this is.

Speaker 3 (24:11):
Butterflies and in flower bill, and it's gonna help. It's
absolutely ridiculous.

Speaker 4 (24:18):
But we're done. We don't know how to read, Jodie.
We all went to public schools. What do you expect.
We've been dumbed down to the point where we'll swallow
this one too.

Speaker 5 (24:26):
And just I'm so disappointed.

Speaker 4 (24:28):
It's gonna save money on incarceration, right, you know, you're
gonna have less people in jail. Less people in jail
means the state pays less. Yeah, and so instead we
got criminals robbing us instead of wearing jumpsuits doing burpies.

Speaker 3 (24:42):
You know, this is a slap in the face to
all the California Californias that voted for Prop thirty six. Yes, everyone,
because what Gavin Newsom is doing now, and you know,
with just the probation apartment alone, he's yanked so much
money from the funding and he knows that's going to
directly affect local law enforcement and holding people accountable. What

(25:06):
I mean by that is put him in programs things
like that. He's doing it on purpose to try to
collapse it because he's just mad, because because that actually
passed and it seems like, you know, you keep yelling
and it falls on deaf ears with these with these

(25:28):
left wing politicians. They're always thinking of the criminal. And
I say that, and I don't care if if when
they do this they're actually thinking, they're actually thinking that
it's a good thing. I don't care because it's not.
And when I say it's not, because why because these

(25:51):
criminals are still out on the street. They can steal
a car and they'll be out in six seven hours.
You can your criminal can hold a gun. A convicted
gang member can be caught with a stolen gun and
get two years. And let me tell you, I know

(26:13):
this for a fact. They're not going to do two years.
They'll do six months maybe if that.

Speaker 4 (26:17):
Think about that probably County time right now.

Speaker 3 (26:19):
Think about all these left wing politicians. They're always yelling
about gun safety and you know, gun crime, Yet they
don't really want to hit the criminals that actually carry him.
They want to hit the the CCW owners, the you know,
the people that do it the right way, and the
actual law biding citizens. That's who they want to always hit.

(26:43):
It's sitting with that. God bless you and God bless America.

On Purpose with Jay Shetty

I’m Jay Shetty host of On Purpose the worlds #1 Mental Health podcast and I’m so grateful you found us. I started this podcast 5 years ago to invite you into conversations and workshops that are designed to help make you happier, healthier and more healed. I believe that when you (yes you) feel seen, heard and understood you’re able to deal with relationship struggles, work challenges and life’s ups and downs with more ease and grace. I interview experts, celebrities, thought leaders and athletes so that we can grow our mindset, build better habits and uncover a side of them we’ve never seen before. New episodes every Monday and Friday. Your support means the world to me and I don’t take it for granted — click the follow button and leave a review to help us spread the love with On Purpose. I can’t wait for you to listen to your first or 500th episode!
