Speaker 1 (00:00):
I am six forty. You're listening to the John Cobelt
Podcast on the iHeartRadio app. We are on every day
from one until four o'clock. John Cobelt's Show on Demand
is what you can listen to after four o'clock. It's
the podcast. It's the same as the radio show. So
if you weren't here, we've covered a lot of two
issues today, in particular, I don't know, I really want
(00:23):
to play that Tracy Park thing again before. That was
pretty powerful. I know, you know, I have that ready.
Maybe this segment all right, because we've got the moistline
coming up. It got Carl Demio coming up, and I
just think every once in a while you get someone
in office, and not many times where they just are
absolutely right, And I don't want this to fade away.
Tracy Park did four minutes of brilliance lecturing the La
(00:48):
City Council on the stupidity of their budget, the shrink
in the fire department, their shrinking the police department, and
we're still spending well over a billion dollars on the
homeless and all those programs have failed. And we've been
yelling about this, well, the homeless stuff for ten years.
Ever since we found out the Palisades fire, nobody knew
(01:09):
that we only need half a fire department. And it's true,
she says it. We've been telling you it. We only
have half a fire department because you're supposed to have
about two firefighters per one thousand residents, and we in
LA we have zero point nine firefighters per thousand residents.
(01:30):
And we haven't had a fire station built since the
nineteen sixties. All right, So in a few minutes, we're
gonna play Tracy Park. I'm telling you, just whatever you're doing,
set it aside for four minutes. It's worth it. But
there was other fire news. There's another rule in life.
If you knock on someone's door and their thirty five
(01:52):
year old son is living with them, odds are that's
a lot of trouble. By thirty five, you should be
out of the house, especially if you're a guy. You're
sitting home alone with mom and dad. What happens if
you're going through a divorce.
Speaker 2 (02:08):
And you're starting to get back on your feet and
rediscover life and whatever, and so it's temporary.
Speaker 1 (02:15):
I'm just saying, no, you should never be thirty five
and living with your parents. If you're taking care of
your parents. I'll give a limited exception, but I want
to do an inspection. They're bad news. This is classic.
(02:35):
This guy was from Norco and you'll remember this story.
His name is Justin Haustenberg. He was convicted of intentionally
igniting the Line fire in San Bernardino County back in September.
They had to evacuate eleven thousand people and it damaged
a number of properties, and he started three separate fires
(03:00):
in within an hour in the city of Highland, which
is at the base of the San Bernardino Mountains. He
pleaded not guilty to starting the fire. His mother said
at the time to the La Times, I do want
to say this about my baby boy. He did not
light that fire. I repeat, he did not light that fire.
(03:23):
And when I saw baby boy.
Speaker 3 (03:26):
Okay, so if baby boy wasn't in there, it would
be as gross.
Speaker 4 (03:31):
Well.
Speaker 1 (03:31):
First of all, I knew he was guilty, and I
knew why he was guilty, because he's been he's been
coddled and protected all his life, and he turned into
a psycho. He got away with everything. I think he's
probably been born a psycho. He practiced setting fires. Back
in twenty twenty three, and who were up a valley.
He came up with an ignition device. It was a
(03:53):
cigarette box filled with paper and coins that weighed down
so when he tossed it would land in the brush.
And a similar device started the line fire, and they
traced They traced the fire to him. His mother also
told the Times that he is not an arsonist. Well,
(04:19):
the jury decided he was an arsonist, guilty of seven
counts related to the line fire, two counts related to
another a second fire. His charges include aggravated arson the
forest land and property possession of flammable materials. Could face
life in prison. I bet you they won't give it
to him, though, because his mom is going to say, well,
(04:41):
he's my baby boy. That might grow some people up.
It's my deabty. Did you see the guy told me
I did a lot when this story first out. Go
look at his foot. Complete goon, complete scary goon. When
they found him, when they arrested him, he was back
at his parents' house. Oh honey, did you have a
(05:04):
good daylighting fires? What would you like for dinner? You're
full of ash and soot. We go take a shower first, deer,
and then we'll eat you smell like smoke. All right,
let's play this Tracy Park thing. This is the way
everybody in government should govern. This is the way they
(05:27):
should sound, This is what they should say. All right,
this is what I expect. This is the new standard
after start. Wait, wait, wait, hold on, Tracy Park. If
you don't know, she's the West Side council person in LA,
she's my council person. And she voted against this budget
with two others and she explained why and you tell me,
you tell me one line here that is incorrect. Now
(05:49):
go ahead.
Speaker 2 (05:50):
At the start of this budget process, we made a
promise to maintain core services and minimize impacts to Angelino's.
But this budget doesn't reflect those promises. It's bloated with
homeless spending, a bottomless.
Speaker 5 (06:08):
Pit and taxpayer.
Speaker 2 (06:10):
Boondoggle that doubles down on failure year after year, and frankly,
at this point, it's just embarrassing. Hundreds of millions of
dollars on bridge homes and home keys and interim housing sites,
and no one can even tell us which ones are
(06:34):
operational and which ones aren't, or.
Speaker 5 (06:36):
How many beds we have.
Speaker 2 (06:39):
Spending a million and a half dollars per door to
build micro units of housing to give away to homeless
drug addicts, when the vast majority of our own city
employees can never afford a condo at that price. LASA
is in a free for all. Literally, no one is
(06:59):
able to account for the billions we flushed down the toilet.
The county wisely pulling out while we're over here at
the city, completely unprepared and so unable to manage our
own homeless affairs that we're about to be placed in
receivership by a federal judge.
Speaker 5 (07:19):
Again, it's embarrassing.
Speaker 2 (07:23):
I don't think we should agree to spend another penny
on homelessness. Un how, we, as a full council, not
just the few of you who get invited into the conversation,
have the chance to chime in and actually cast a
boat on whether we're finally getting a divorce from wasa
(07:43):
on what the future of homeless services delivery.
Speaker 3 (07:45):
Looks like in LA.
Speaker 2 (07:48):
But instead of fixing that mess, what did we decide
to go after the increase we gave our fire department?
After all, we literally just witnessed in January with our
own eyes how desperately in need they are, with literally
half the staffing and funding they should have for a
(08:11):
fire department in a city of our size. There are
still one hundred rigs sitting over at the boneyard, but
we're sitting here unable to say yes to the mechanics
that we need to fix them. We're shrinking LAPD in
favor of expanding other programs that haven't been effective, and
we're doing it right on the cusp of major world
(08:31):
events and in the midst of a crime and homelessness crisis,
while our residents continue to be victimized in a city
where the former deputy marriage is pled guilty to calling
in bomb threats to city Hall. That's the state of
our city going after our neighborhood councils, the people who
(08:52):
volunteer their time to help guide us and do good
things in our neighborhood and in our city. All of
our residents and taxpayers. All they want is a fully
funded police and fire department. They want the sidewalks fixed,
they want the street lights to work, and they want
their kids to be able to play at the local
(09:14):
park without having to step over drug and trash camps.
We are down rabbit holes of spending on things that
no one cares about. We haven't eliminated the price gouging
that we do to ourselves, and just can't in good
conscience vote for a budget that makes our city less safe,
(09:36):
less fiscally sound, and even less responsive to our constituents
basic needs. I do appreciate all of the hard work
that the mayor and the CEO and the CLA and
the budget committee put into this, but I just cannot
support this budget.
Speaker 4 (09:50):
As it stands.
Speaker 1 (09:52):
And then twelve out of the fifteen council members voted
for the budget to shrink the fire department, to shrink
the police department, and to continue spending over a billion
dollars on all the failed homeless programs. And those of
you who think, well, we've got to do something, you
know I voted for that tax increase last November. Do
(10:12):
you hear Tracy Park? It's all failure. Why do you
think the governor admitted twenty four billion dollars disappeared and
don't know where it went. Why do you think this
audit of LASA two billion disappeared, nobody knows where it went.
Why do you think the county is pulling out a lassa?
(10:33):
Why do you think? Why do you think? What do
you think it's been stolen. It's a failure. That was great.
I mean I feel like playing that at the end
of every show for the rest of the year like
a prayer, because this is this tiny little beacon of light.
She's telling the truth. You can't keep voting this way.
(10:53):
You can't vote for these people. There's something wrong with them.
They're psychotic. All right, I'm lay behind.
Speaker 6 (10:59):
Sorry, you're listening to John Cobelt on demand from KFI
AM six forty.
Speaker 1 (11:07):
All right, let's say going, it's time for the Moiceline
round one and Sean.
Speaker 7 (11:11):
Thanks for calling the moistline. I'm so excited to hear
from you comp time.
Speaker 4 (11:16):
Hey, I heard on the news that the media just
found out about Biden's prostate cancer. I figured they should
know it a lot earlier because they're probably up there
for the last four years.
Speaker 3 (11:25):
We reached to those who have ever gone pick it
on a defense to.
Speaker 7 (11:28):
This older president that has character.
Speaker 8 (11:32):
All of these elite, woke liberals either go to a
semester abroad.
Speaker 1 (11:37):
In Europe, or they do a gap year in Europe
after they graduate with their political.
Speaker 9 (11:41):
Science or underwater basket leaving degrees.
Speaker 8 (11:43):
And they discover socialized medicine and high speed rail, and
they come back here, they don't get real jobs, and
they all want to create high speed rail and socialized
medicine here because they thought it was such a great
thing in Europe for the month that they were there.
Speaker 9 (11:57):
These people are morons.
Speaker 5 (12:00):
Basically, says President Biden. Has been diagnosed with cancer, which
we know has been there probably the entire time he
was president, along with the dementia, obviously he was unfit
to be president. And therefore I think all executive orders
he's signed, every bill he's signing to put into law,
(12:20):
should be null and void.
Speaker 3 (12:23):
We need to hire more cops, firefighters, keep the animal
shelters open, and bring those elephants home.
Speaker 8 (12:30):
You mentioned that shaw Day represents a district that is
running with crime.
Speaker 10 (12:35):
Well, the fact that she's supporting criminals shouldn't.
Speaker 11 (12:38):
Be a surprise because that is her constituency.
Speaker 3 (12:41):
Her constituency commits crime.
Speaker 12 (12:43):
The families and friends of those people probably also live
in around that area.
Speaker 10 (12:46):
So she needs to cater to her constituency, which are criminals,
So she'll do whatever she can to get re elected
by supporting criminals.
Speaker 3 (12:54):
Well, I checked with Google about the seven Wonders of
the world.
Speaker 10 (12:58):
But I found out there.
Speaker 11 (13:00):
Eight now he eight did the fact that Jennie Kenoni
still has a job amazing.
Speaker 13 (13:07):
I was in Tennessee last week and I saw.
Speaker 14 (13:09):
A regular unloaded for two forty one a gallon, and
if you bought a car wash, it.
Speaker 10 (13:15):
Was a dollar forty one a gallon.
Speaker 8 (13:18):
What's going on with California.
Speaker 14 (13:19):
It's ridiculous.
Speaker 9 (13:21):
I want to know when Biden was taking them chemo
therapies and lined up with the dates he signed those
things with the robopen and you know, see if they
line up and if he even had the mental capacity
while under chemo treatment to.
Speaker 12 (13:37):
Do such a thing.
Speaker 15 (13:38):
Karen Bash got money from the Tulsa Zoo for the
two elephants when the Reserve would have taken the elephants
for nothing. It would have been a free trade. But
Karen Bash, you know how, she has her hands in
the cookie jar all the time. Typical liberal.
Speaker 12 (13:58):
Why are they still calling in a high speed rail.
Speaker 14 (14:01):
It's a nose speed trained idea which will.
Speaker 15 (14:06):
Never actually be built.
Speaker 14 (14:08):
You have to give Biden credit.
Speaker 15 (14:10):
He knows how to.
Speaker 14 (14:11):
Play the emotional manipulation card. Whenever he got into political trouble,
he would wave the dead wife card around. He would
wave the dead son card around, and now, after a
week of everyone talking about his dementia cover up, he
waves the I am cancer.
Speaker 12 (14:28):
Card around California voters. You really need to smarten up.
What we need to do is to port all of
these California politicians along with the illegal aliens, and then
maybe you could afford to live in California.
Speaker 16 (14:41):
I've been looking back and listening to some of my
own moistline calls where I was pretty mean to Gavin Newsom,
and I have a lot of hubility. I look at
those calls and I'm full of humility. I have humility
when I think about the data that I said. I'm
very humilitous when I have my humility about my minutes
and the phone calls.
Speaker 17 (15:02):
Oh sure, the hurricane drops, Biden can't remember if he's
president or playing shuffleboard, dolaware and boom, he's got stage
four cancer. Right, I cover up in the West Lane. Meanwhile,
the media is out here nodding their bobbleheads, acting out
if this is new, This isn't Paul, take this reality
TV show or a weekend at Bernie's with a front past.
The timing doesn't make any sense. It's a full blown
(15:25):
insult to anyone who actually has a brain.
Speaker 3 (15:27):
Thank you for leaving your message.
Speaker 5 (15:29):
Please hang up, goodbye.
Speaker 1 (15:32):
Uh, that was very good. What was that one early on?
That was? I forgot? You're followed by twenty more of them,
and I don't remember what my favorite one was. All right,
we got another round of the moistline coming up in
twenty minutes.
Speaker 6 (15:48):
You're listening to John Cobels on Demand from KFI AM
six forty.
Speaker 1 (15:54):
The one who talked about these young people coming out
of college, they go to Europe and then they come
back and infiltrate government with stupid ideas after they get
their underwater basket weaving degrees. That's it, underwater basket weaving.
That's great, all right, John Cobalt Show, caf I AM
six forty live everywhere on the iHeartRadio app. We're on
(16:15):
from one until four o'clock and then after four o'clock.
If you missed anything. John Cobelt Show on Demand had
a lot of good stuff today. You got to Our
first hour is all about Gavin Newsom and he and
his little mini me Attorney General filing a lawsuit against
Trump because well, Trump probably very soon is going to
sign sign that law which says that Newsom's ban on
(16:38):
gas powered cars has been reversed. Can't do it. So
we did a lot on that. And also you want
to hear Tracy Park excoriate the La City Council for
shrinking the police and Fire department and continuing to spend
another billion plus dollars on all the failed homeless policies.
We're going to talk to Carl Demayo now because Carlos
(17:00):
found that Gavin Newsom is wasting money on some far
left wing group phony hate crime hotline. Carl tell us
about this.
Speaker 3 (17:12):
Yeah, We've been Dojing California through my office, looking at
every contract, every grant, and there's a disturbing pattern, really
really wasteful contracts and grants with no deliverables, no performance,
or very little to show. But they all seem to
be going to far left wing political groups that are
(17:34):
pushing left wing politics. And so we we we're calling
it what it is. This is not just wasteful spending,
it is corrupt money laundering for political purposes. The latest
contract we're looking at goes to a group called LA
two one one and it's for a hate crime hotline.
Two years ago, Gavin Newsom did a big, fancy press
(17:57):
conference where he said that hate crimes were on the ruck,
and that he was going to set up a special
hotline that all Californians could call and rat out you
know whoever's been committing hate climbs against them, against them,
and that the state would investigate and help the victims. Well,
(18:17):
I looked at the contract. It's two point four million
a year, so we've already spent five over five million dollars,
and I asked for the performance data. What would you
be surprised? Not one single criminal referral has been made,
not one single criminal referral. Only two quote unquote administrative
(18:38):
settlements have been referred. And these are duplicative of programs
that are already in the state that deal with workplace discrimination.
Both of these items were workplace issues. We already have
programs for that, and they're charging us about thirty five
hundred dollars per call referred. And of course, as I
(18:59):
just mentioned, none of those referrals have resulted in any
criminal charges. This is nothing more than a hoax hotline,
a hate hoax hotline, and we believe it needs to
be terminated.
Speaker 1 (19:11):
And I bet you've got a lot of publicity at
the time for this.
Speaker 3 (19:16):
Well, Newsom got a lot of publicity two years ago
because the liberal media said, that's right, hate crimes are terrible.
We need a hotline. There's so many of them. We
need a hotline to take all these awful cases and
get people the help they need. Well, of course, two
years later, no such thing, nothing is happening. And I
released this this week and most of the liberal media
(19:38):
in California just ignored it, you know. But you know
what Newsom does. He funds this two point five million
dollar no big contract for a phony hotline on hate crimes,
but he cut nineteen million dollars from a similar help
desk for foster kids and foster families. Do you understand
(19:59):
just how insanely bad his judgment is putting up a
two point five million dollar fake hotline for hate crimes
while he's gutting a hotline and helped desk for foster
kids and foster.
Speaker 1 (20:13):
Family Okay, so what's his motivation for awarding this no
big contract to this lefty organization? Are Are they his friends? Relatives,
political associates? I mean, there must have been a reason
he did this. He's rewarding somebody. This is some kind
of money laundering.
Speaker 11 (20:30):
There's an upside for who though, Well, yeah, sometimes it's
corruption in terms of you know, kickbacks, and we haven't
been able to look, you know, deeper into that angle.
Speaker 3 (20:41):
But mainly, these are these contracts, these no big contracts
in grants to left wing organizations. It's how democrats fund
left wing politics. They're using your tax payer money for
their political agendas. And what we're finding is that it's
hundreds of millions of dollars. We're not just talking about
one contract. We're tracking over two hundred and fifty million
(21:04):
dollars a year in funding going to left wing political advocacy,
including ballot harvesting and the support of ballot measures and
tax increases.
Speaker 1 (21:15):
So, I mean, what I'm also getting at here is
that five million dollars and there were no actual hate
crime recommendations, hate crime calls. So what did they really
do with the money. They didn't need five million dollars
to answer the phone twice, what you know, for two recommendations,
So what what really does the money go for? That's
(21:36):
why I'm trying to get at the money laundry.
Speaker 3 (21:38):
I think it's going for either either some sort of
corrupt kickback or more likely, it goes to fund political advocacy, lobbying,
issue advocacy, harvesting of ballots. We've been tracking this for
a long time where we see funds going to left
wing organizations, no deliverables whatsoever in the contractor grant. But
(22:02):
then these same organizations seem to have a whole lot
of money to spend on politics and get out the
vote and candidates that they're supporting and ballot measures like
tax increases. So we're not stupid about this. We know
that money is fungible, and when you award a contract
and there's no real defined deliverable and when there's no
(22:22):
real performance that you can you can verify, the money
typically is diverted to the political machine that they're building.
Speaker 1 (22:30):
Yeah, and he gets a lot of coverage on day one,
and everybody loves to run hate crime stories in the media.
I don't get the obsession, but they're all progressives in
the media, so they run these hate crime stories and
then nobody in the entire state, for any TV, radio,
internet site, newspaper, nobody ever follows up and says, hey,
what did they do with all that money? What was
(22:51):
the outcome. I mean, you're the first one to find
this out.
Speaker 3 (22:55):
Yeah, I like putting little reminders in my Outlook calendar. Whatever,
Gavenus and more. One of these politicians does one of
these fancy press conferences saying that, oh, you know, they're
going to combat hate crimes, or climate change is going
to be ended through this program. Or Gavin Newsom says
I'm going to order an investigation into why the gas
prices are so high. I always put an Outlook reminder
(23:17):
on my calendar for twelve months later to go back
and check to see if anything actually happened. And you
know what, would you be surprised, John? Nine times out
of ten, nothing at all. It's just a stunt. This
is all BS, and they waste millions of dollars of
taxpayer money and Lord knows where it goes. So we
have a budget deficit, and I believe that we can
(23:38):
actually balance our budget without draconian cuts to things like
that foster care hotline, which I think is really important.
We can do it without these draconian cuts if we
just get rid of the waste, fraud, and abuse, and
there's plenty of it in the state budget, all right.
Speaker 1 (23:53):
Well, as you find it, come here. You always have
a home. We'll be bringing it to your attention apps.
Thanks so much, all right, Carl to Mai. He's the
Republican assemblyment in San Diego. Oh got I hate that.
I I nothing worse than a hate crime story because
because they constantly are giving out phony statistics. You know,
(24:14):
let's say, hate crimes against group X, there's up twenty
seven percent this year, and you find out that, yeah,
last year there were eight hate crimes and this year
there were ten, and so we have this double digit increase,
and there's usually a press conference and there's these pompous,
arrogant directors from whatever, and then they're getting they're getting
(24:34):
tax money. They're getting millions of dollars of tax money.
This because you're not supposed to like, object to hate
crime legislation, right, you can't object to a hate crime
organization getting our tax money for a hotline that produced
two administrative referrals and no crimes. How can you have
a hate crime hotline and nobody calls it a crime
(24:56):
for two years? How can that be? But if anybody
piped up at the time and acting skepticals, well you
must be some racist sex is homophobe. Well, it turns
out it was a bust. It was a scam. A racket,
that's what it was. Most of this stuff, nearly all
of this stuff is a racket. And I'm glad Carl
one guy in the entire state of California, he had
a forty million people is investigating it. Okay, we come back.
(25:19):
We got another round of the voistline, and also we
got a quick story about the new director of the
National Institute of Health. He's part of the Trump administration.
He's been on our show, and he had a town
hall meeting crowded auditorium, and a number of employees for
the National Institute of Health got up and walked out
on him. And everyone that walked out was wearing a mask.
(25:43):
We'll explain this debor Mark Live. I guess I'll be
listening to it in my car on thevoistline, Yeah too. No,
you were looking at me like a confused puppy.
Speaker 8 (25:53):
It's like, oh, no, okay, I.
Speaker 1 (25:56):
Get it all. You processing. I'm processed. You've been sick,
you know exactly. The brain is not working. I could
talk slower, if that's okay, all right.
Speaker 6 (26:07):
You're listening to John cobels on demand from KFI AM
sixty real quick.
Speaker 1 (26:14):
So Jay Abatachara is now the head of the National
Institute of Health, and he gave a town hall meeting
and he was one of the most vocal COVID skeptics,
and he was treated treated badly by the Biden administration.
He was shut down on social media. Turned out Jay
Batacharya was correct, and so now Trump made him the
head of NIH. And he told his employees it's possible
(26:38):
the pandemic was caused by research conducted by human beings,
and it's possible that the NIH partly sponsored that research.
That's right. Fauci's money went to fund the research that
led to COVID. And we've known this for a while.
So you had a group of employees who were sitting
(27:02):
in the auditorium, and incidentally, they were all wearing masks.
The ones who then got up and walked out, they
marched out, several dozen of them wearing face masks because
they were so offended the by the idea that their
their department, National Institute of Health, they were responsible for COVID,
(27:23):
their money was responsible for COVID, and that it was
human being research that created the situation they couldn't handle it.
Let's get now to round two of the moistline, and Sean, thanks.
Speaker 7 (27:35):
For calling the moistline.
Speaker 1 (27:36):
I'm so excited to hear from you about time.
Speaker 4 (27:39):
You know, this a diagnosis with the President Biden. I
don't know what's wrong with us as a people. I mean,
we should have some kind of a mercy on this man. Hey,
I personally am praying for him. But what gets me
the most and just bothers me the most, is why
are we as a nation looking at the past. You
need to look forward to what the nation can do
with President Trump. You know, we're looking in our rear
(28:02):
room mirror saying what about this? What about this?
Speaker 11 (28:04):
Leaves the man alone?
Speaker 9 (28:05):
Why is it.
Speaker 1 (28:06):
Trump's fault with his tariff that nobody.
Speaker 5 (28:08):
Wants to come to California.
Speaker 2 (28:10):
Maybe they don't want to come to California because it's.
Speaker 10 (28:12):
An awful arm pit cesspool and you have no protection
from crime.
Speaker 14 (28:18):
Quick calling it free healthcare for illegal immigrants.
Speaker 15 (28:22):
If our hard earned tax dollars that are paying for
that nonsense, they need to knock that off.
Speaker 18 (28:28):
I'm an American citizen. I trade calling for medicaid or
medical they gave me three tiers, and I thought him, Hey,
I can't afford that I'm an unemployee for the past month,
and instead of helping me out, they transferred to a
supervisor who decided to hang up on me because I've
parently not eligible for this, but I was illegal, i'd've
been paying care of it.
Speaker 10 (28:47):
This AB bill with diversion for certain felonies, they're just
letting people out of jail and not paying attention to
what this system like this would create. All these diversion
centers or openings for non profit funds. We've already gone
through this before. It's all about fraud. They're just looking
for new ways to hide the money.
Speaker 19 (29:08):
Oh my goodness, what a shocking detail. Another nonprofit and
this case cause us stealing and spending interpurpotly. I think
at this point, John, we can assume that all nonprofits
are correct.
Speaker 13 (29:19):
If California and Newsom's office can file all these legal
injunctions against Trump, why can't we file all these injunctions
against Newsom and his office for these gas tacks and
closing the prisons.
Speaker 3 (29:35):
Ay, Newsom, get this through your increasy head.
Speaker 16 (29:38):
Nobody wants your friend mandates or your policies beg.
Speaker 15 (29:43):
We're discussing how long the high speed rail is taking
to build.
Speaker 17 (29:46):
The Transcontinental Railroad took only six years.
Speaker 15 (29:50):
Part of that was during the Civil War and.
Speaker 1 (29:52):
They still got it done.
Speaker 20 (29:53):
If you have an electric vehicle, you have no real
freedom because if you want to even go to another state,
it's going to take hours and hours longer than it
used to. And that means they're trying to control people.
That's all this is control.
Speaker 2 (30:07):
I only drive an EV because they're really fast, and
I love it.
Speaker 1 (30:11):
I love those and I'll just keep driving them forever.
Speaker 14 (30:13):
No, I don't think we should have any blockouts or
brand outs this summer because look at all the houses
that we lost in the fire and the power of
Stade aren't using power, and all the ones over in
the data.
Speaker 10 (30:24):
That aren't using power.
Speaker 14 (30:25):
We should have plenty of power this summer.
Speaker 9 (30:27):
So if the federal government got rid of the gas
car and truck band, why can't they do something about
the high price.
Speaker 12 (30:35):
Of gas in California.
Speaker 9 (30:37):
Why should we be penalized when the rest of the
country isn't because of the stupid death formulas.
Speaker 7 (30:44):
Could you imagine all the shortages and empty shelves across
the state over the summer and fall because the trucks
can get fully charged, us to the rolling blackouts we
get every year. Feel Lord, these people are stupid.
Speaker 3 (30:57):
Thank you for leaving your message. Please hang up.
Speaker 1 (31:01):
If we all had electric cars, we'd had blackouts and
then we'd all be stuck in our homes. Wouldn't be
able to leave because there was no electricity to power
the cars because the electric cars took all the power.
