Speaker 1 (00:00):
Can't.
Speaker 2 (00:01):
I am six.
Speaker 1 (00:02):
You're listening to the John Cobelt podcast on the iHeartRadio apps.
Speaker 3 (00:06):
It's the John Cobelt Show. Lou Penrose sitting here for
John Cobelt. Good to be with you. Flight delays across
America as air traffic controllers are feeling the pressure and
calling out, which is resulting in fewer air traffic controllers,
which is resulting in forty major airports in America experiencing delays.
(00:26):
Four percent reduction in flights and this is just step one,
so more next week. Los Angeles International Airport on the
list of flights of airports have affected. Michael Monks in
the KFI newsroom, Thanks so much for spending time with us.
Speaker 4 (00:42):
What are you hearing from LX.
Speaker 5 (00:44):
Well, it's not just LAX, it's also Ontario, it's also
San Diego. And that four percent has apparently meant some
pretty big headaches for folks traveling into and out of
LAX today. You know, yesterday when federal officials came out
and said we're going to reduce the flight capacity at
major airports across the country, they said ten percent. So
(01:05):
I guess it was a bit of a blessing that
that has been reduced to four percent today, but it
is expected to hit ten percent capacity reduction by next Friday,
starting with a six percent reduction on Tuesday, then an
eight percent reduction next Thursday, hitting that ten percent by
next Friday. So it's probably only going to get worse.
And it sounds like it's already pretty rough out there,
(01:28):
certainly rougher than an average day. Our colleague Melissa Aiden
from ABC News is at lax and reported this earlier.
Speaker 6 (01:36):
How do you get your flight back home to your destination?
Speaker 7 (01:39):
Right?
Speaker 6 (01:39):
So, if you're heading out to travel and this is
just the first leg of your travel, that is some
of the anxiety already that so many travelers and passengers
tell me that they're worried about. Here At United, they
have told us they were successfully able to rebook people
and passengers within four hours of their next available flight,
so United saying they were able to move on other
(02:00):
airlines as well, American Delta also sharing that they were
able to do so. But look, passengers tell me they're nervous.
Speaker 5 (02:07):
So passengers are nervous a little bit. I mean they
don't know what's going on. The airport officials across the
country are saying please take a look at your flight
schedule and checking with your airline before coming to the
airport at all, because if you get to the airport,
you go through the hassle of security and all of that,
and then find out that there's a delay or a cancelation,
then you're kind of just stuck there for a while.
Speaker 3 (02:28):
So like the four hour delay, from the airline's port
of view, it sounds like it's all right, we can
get you on your plane, get you to your city.
Just be a short four hour delay. Four hours is
a lot if you're traveling right. First off, it's eighteen
dollars a chardonay exactly, and you're stuck at LAX, which
is not always I mean, it's just such a vast
(02:50):
city Los Angeles Airport is.
Speaker 5 (02:52):
I mean, there are some airports that are probably fun
to hang out in, and there are others that are
less comfortable than others. So far today at Los Angeles
International Airport, according to flight aware dot com, there have
been a total of one hundred and sixty six delays
and fifty four total cancelations. In Ontario twenty five delays
and eight cancelations, and in San Diego more than one
(03:13):
hundred delays one hundred two and twenty seven total cancelations,
and that includes flights that are departing from these airports
and flights that are coming into that airport, So just
a rough time to fly here. It is a Friday
where you would expect folks to be getting away for
the weekend.
Speaker 4 (03:29):
And Tuesdays on holiday and Tuesday Mondays.
Speaker 5 (03:32):
Exactly could be a long weekend for some folks. And
the holidays are approaching. And I know there's been some
movement in Congress today to maybe start talking about talking
again about reaching some sort of compromise to reopen this government.
Speaker 4 (03:44):
But what we're.
Speaker 5 (03:45):
Seeing is the two biggest issues to come out of
this government shutdown has been this situation and then the
Snap benefits. And it looks like we've got some movement
on the Snap front today with funds being dispersed at
least in California and a few other states, while there's
a legal battle so ongoing. But people are really starting
to feel this very long government shutdown.
Speaker 4 (04:08):
Yeah, I mean part of this is by design, right.
Speaker 3 (04:12):
The whole purpose of a shutdown is to have people
be impacted, so they get angry, so they call their
senator and that's.
Speaker 4 (04:20):
Democracy, right, vox popular. But I don't know.
Speaker 3 (04:24):
The air traffic controller thing, it's too much like flying
is already a hassle.
Speaker 4 (04:30):
They already have this.
Speaker 3 (04:31):
Thing where like, oh, the airplane staff timed out, so
we had to go to another plane. Like there's already
connection problems, and now you add a four percent decrease,
which it's amazing, right, four percent, But look at this
impact exactly.
Speaker 5 (04:45):
I mean, this is bigger than a normal day, that's
for sure. I mean, you always risk a cancelation or
a delay, it's just the nature of the business. But
this many this is this is a typical. And the
situation is we're talking about passengers feeling it, or we're
talking about food stant recipients feeling it. These air traffic
controllers or these TSA agents, they felt it much earlier.
(05:07):
They've been working without getting paid for the hours that
they're putting in. And that's what is causing this is
there are air traffic controllers who have other issues in
their lives that they need to tend to rather than
to continue coming in working these long shifts without getting
their money for it. So it's just a very difficult
situation for those workers and it has now become a
very difficult situation for the everyday traveler.
Speaker 4 (05:29):
Okay, if it's Michael Monks, thanks so much. I appreciate you.
You got it all right, we'll talk again. It's just incredible.
Speaker 3 (05:35):
It's absolutely incredible when you consider that those are these numbers,
forty major airports, four percent a decrease in travel, and
it's going to ramp up to six and then eight
and then eventually ten by next weekend.
Speaker 4 (05:48):
And if the lines are as long as they are today,
or the.
Speaker 3 (05:52):
Impact is as big on Tuesday as it is today,
imagine by next weekend what.
Speaker 4 (05:58):
It's going to be.
Speaker 3 (06:00):
People have all kinds of plans and travel, and plus
you get car rentals, and now cars are not being
returned because people keeping the car for two more days.
It's just a it's an absolute mess, absolute mess. Loup
Penrose infa John Cobelt on The John Cobelt Show on
KFI AM six forty live everywhere on the iHeartRadio apps.
Speaker 8 (06:20):
You're listening to John Cobelt on demand from KFI AM
six forty.
Speaker 4 (06:26):
Lou Penrose in for John Cobelt on The John Cobelt Show.
Speaker 3 (06:30):
Flight delays forty major airports including LA four percent of
all activity, which is the starting point. According to the
Secretary of Transportation, We'll go up to ten percent by
next week, and people are not happy.
Speaker 9 (06:45):
Would you tell me, out of those light cancelations and
flight delays if any of those are international flights or
are they all domestic flights?
Speaker 4 (06:58):
What am I? Two to one one?
Speaker 3 (07:00):
Oh, They're only domestic flights. But I appreciate the call.
Oh man, a bad day at LA.
Speaker 2 (07:04):
Hey, Luke, Yeah, this government shutdown, the Republican shutdown.
Speaker 4 (07:07):
We're all calling it. It's exactly what Trump wanted. He
asked for it, he got it, and he could deal
with it.
Speaker 3 (07:12):
While he is dealing with it, they're scaling down the
flights to give air traffic controllers a little bit of space.
Speaker 2 (07:20):
I'm so happy that asked is hitting the fan for everyone,
because after things start affecting you is when it really
starts mattering to you. I don't care if it's Republican
or if it's Democrat. We as a society, I hope
it gets worse.
Speaker 4 (07:35):
Have a nice day, mister Joy.
Speaker 10 (07:37):
You gotta do what I do and just put private Yeah,
you know it's going to be five ten thousand dollars
to fly from here to San Francisco or something like that.
But time is priceless and it's worth every penny. Plus.
If you've ever flown private before, it's the only way
to fly, have a good one.
Speaker 4 (07:54):
I appreciate the call.
Speaker 3 (07:56):
I have to imagine that even private flights can feel
the stress.
Speaker 4 (08:01):
Well maybe not.
Speaker 3 (08:02):
Maybe they don't have to do with anything in the
terminal and they don't have to deal with the towers.
I don't know, but I don't know anybody that flies private.
But I was told the prices were going to come
down by now, Like it wasn't five thousand dollars. It
was supposed to be like eight hundred dollars to fly
private to San Francisco, like a couple of one hundred
(08:24):
dollars more than a first Classic. So those prices haven't
come down, but I appreciate the call. We'll see where
this goes. The Senate is in session. I'm looking at
it now on c SPAN, so they are there and
usually they're not there on a Friday.
Speaker 4 (08:42):
Senators are interesting animals.
Speaker 3 (08:45):
They are supposed to be the reasonable crowd, like the
House of Representatives is supposed to be hot. They all
go in hot and that's my design. The House of
Representatives are re elected every two years. They have to
face the voters all the time. They are always up
for reelection every two years. There are four hundred and
(09:07):
thirty five members of the House of Representatives, and they,
I mean, they're always checking the temperature of their constituents
and their districts. And now with Prop fifty here in California,
the ones running have all new people to meet and
to get to know and to in the case of Republicans,
convince independence and like minded Democrats in their brand new
(09:30):
district to like them, or to at least check the
temperature of what they are are thinking. So I'm actually
happy that the House is not involved in this discussion.
The Senate is just the opposite. The Senate is reelected
every six years, so they never have to deal with
voters like six years is forever. And it's a statewide office,
(09:53):
so they never have to worry about congressional districts, reapportionment
district lines.
Speaker 4 (09:59):
Cheating like Prop fifty.
Speaker 3 (10:00):
They don't have to worry about any of that because
they're elected statewide. And it's often been said that it
is the Senate. The Senate is the saucer that cools
the cup of tea. Right, the Senate is supposed to
be level headed, They're supposed to be calmed, there's decorum there.
These are the stately bunch. These are it's the House
of Lords, and they're supposed.
Speaker 4 (10:22):
To be the very reasonable bunch. So maybe that will
happen tonight. But usually they're out of there on Thursday.
Speaker 3 (10:30):
The Senate rarely works, and to see them there on
a Friday night means that I have to imagine that
they themselves want to get this over with, just because
I'm sure they're feeling pressure from their governors. Really, you
can't get a pulse on a state like how could
a senator possibly know what a majority of the constituents
(10:50):
feel on a complete issue, even like the senator from
Rhode Island, how could he possibly know, let alone the
senator from California or Texas.
Speaker 4 (10:58):
Or New York or Illinois.
Speaker 3 (11:00):
So they go on polling numbers, they go on what
leadership wants to do, and they go on what's good
for Democrats strategy or Republican strategy. And it's been clear
that this shutdown has been working for Republican senators. There's
one hundred senators, they're fifty three Republicans, and they were
(11:22):
able to peel off a Democrat Senator, John Fetterman from Pennsylvania,
and one independent senator, so they got the number up
to fifty five. So in politics, it matters not what
the numbers are, it matters the direction the numbers are going.
So Democrats were seeing the numbers go up closer and
closer to sixty. There's another independent, so that independent might
(11:47):
bring them to fifty six. Now you have four, and
Democrats started to see that, and I think they were
beginning to think about the narrative that they wanted to
write in giving into a clean cr But then Tuesday
night came and Democrats had a real victory lap.
Speaker 4 (12:06):
They had a great night, great.
Speaker 3 (12:08):
Turnout Virginia, New Jersey, New York City, Prop fifty in California,
and some other victories in state houses in Virginia. So
it was a good night for them, and I think
they want to continue this victory lap of a blue wave,
so they are not necessarily inclined to end this anytime soon.
Speaker 4 (12:30):
And Republicans don't want a cave.
Speaker 3 (12:32):
So here we are at the stillmate and around the
merry go round we go, But that they are working
on a Friday night is interesting to me. We'll see
how long that light is on in the Senate Chamber
as I watch it here on c Spend. All right,
So the guy in DC that through the subway sandwich
at the immigration officer was acquitted yesterday. They did not
(12:58):
find him guilty of of a felony. Was not felony assault,
which is quite surprising. But the jury said, no, it's
not felony assault. It's somewhere between a misdemeanor and free speech.
Here he is, he's very excited. What's his name here,
Here's Sean Dunn. Used to work for the Justice Department.
(13:21):
He used to work for you. You used to pay
a salary. He got fired after they found him throwing
sandwiches at federal officers.
Speaker 4 (13:28):
Now he's free to go.
Speaker 11 (13:29):
I am so happy that justice prevails in spite of
everything happening, and that night I believe that I was
protecting the rights of immigrants with salami.
Speaker 4 (13:44):
We also know the kind of sub.
Speaker 3 (13:46):
It turned out to be a salami sub with mustard
and onions.
Speaker 4 (13:52):
I don't know what else was on it that isn't
the standard sub.
Speaker 3 (13:54):
So he definitely customized his sub there and lost the
entire sub. He threw the whole sub twelve inches. Well,
the Internet has exploded with the jokes. I mean, there's
some pretty good ones up there. I have to admit,
I think this guy should be in bigger trouble than
he is in. You're not supposed to throw anything at officers.
How that's not assault is beyond me. It would be
(14:15):
assault if you threw it at anybody. Can't be thrown
sandwiches at people. You can't throw anything at people. Nevertheless,
the jokes are pretty hilarious and I'll share some with you.
That's all coming up next on the John Cobelt Show.
Lou Penrose Info John Cobelt on KFI AM six forty.
Speaker 8 (14:32):
You're listening to John cobelts on demand from KFI AM
six forty.
Speaker 3 (14:37):
Lou Penrose in for John Coblt. So, the guy that
threw the subway sandwich at the federal officer in DC
this past summer has been acquitted of felony charges.
Speaker 4 (14:50):
He is very happy about it.
Speaker 3 (14:52):
And the Internet, of course is blowing up with jokes
about the sandwich.
Speaker 4 (14:58):
Let me take you back. This was day after it
happened in d C s night.
Speaker 7 (15:03):
Seawan Dunn accused of attacking a federal officer with a
foot long subway sandwich similar to this one right here,
and it's all caught on camera.
Speaker 4 (15:12):
And it was all caught on camera.
Speaker 3 (15:13):
Here's the exchange between the former Justice Department employee.
Speaker 4 (15:19):
And law enforcement. You see these fascists right here.
Speaker 7 (15:25):
You take a look at this cell phone video from
late Sunday night, thirty seven year old Sean Dunn shown
in the pink shirt and shorts allegedly yelling at federal
officers on Fourteenth Street in d C.
Speaker 3 (15:37):
Goy, he's yelling shame. He's wearing pink and yelling shame.
And what's great about this is there is like a
whino nearby that is not part of the exchange. But
he's just doing color commentary. He's like right on, right.
Speaker 7 (15:52):
On, allegedly yelling at federal officers on fourteenth Street in
d C.
Speaker 3 (15:58):
But that's the truth that he has.
Speaker 7 (16:00):
Moments later, video appearing to show him crossing the street,
screaming just inches from a US Customs and Border Protection
officer's face, and then appearing to hit the officer in
the chest with a foot long subway sandwich.
Speaker 3 (16:14):
Turns out it with salami, and so they went to
court and it's all over, and Sean Dunn has been
acquitted a felony assault of an officer and is.
Speaker 4 (16:25):
Now a hero.
Speaker 12 (16:26):
Shawn Dunn had become something of a cult hero and
a symbol of the resistance to the Trump administration. Images
of him throwing that sandwich could be seen on T
shirts and buildings throughout DC.
Speaker 3 (16:38):
A cult hero for throwing food at law enforcement. I
have said this, and I maintain Democrats do not have
a political problem. Democrats have a maturity problem. Throwing food
at cops is immature.
Speaker 4 (16:57):
It's also quite stupid.
Speaker 3 (17:01):
I mean, how he's not doing time for assault is
beyond me. I get it that it's a sandwich, but
the cop doesn't know it's a sandwich.
Speaker 4 (17:09):
You have to put your mind. It puts your mind
in the you know, the.
Speaker 3 (17:12):
Person that's seeing the silhouette of something being thrown at them,
you're screaming shame, You're acting like.
Speaker 4 (17:18):
A nut, and you're losing your mind.
Speaker 3 (17:22):
And you know, people are throwing bottles, they're throwing rocks,
they're throwing all kinds of things at ice vans and
ice agents. And something's coming at an officer. He doesn't know.
It's a foot long sandwich from subway with salami and
onions and mustard.
Speaker 4 (17:40):
Like, what is the officer supposed to do? Wait until
he gets hit by it to find out that it
wasn't lethal.
Speaker 3 (17:48):
Like, the safest thing they can do is subdue you
before you throw anything. What if you were gonna throw
What if your plan was, I'll throw the sub at
this cop as a diversion, and then I'm going to
throw this rock at this other cops head Like, cops have.
Speaker 4 (18:06):
To protect themselves from many acts like you.
Speaker 3 (18:09):
But it is it's incredible to me that they You
know that he's a cult hero, and if you follow
this story on social media, he is. There are people
that are so happy for him. They want to put
together go fundme pages for his legal defense. I think
he has a legal defense fund. Here he was after
outside the courthouse. He's a He said, look, this was
(18:31):
he was protecting the illegals.
Speaker 11 (18:32):
I am so happy that justice prevails in spite of
everything happening. And that night, I believe that I was
protecting the rights of immigrants.
Speaker 4 (18:46):
How is that?
Speaker 7 (18:47):
So?
Speaker 4 (18:47):
This guy is a lawyer and he worked for the
Justice Department.
Speaker 3 (18:51):
How is insulting and screaming shame at law enforcement, which
is the arm of the law, and throwing food at them,
How is.
Speaker 4 (19:03):
That fighting for their rights? Maturity? This isn't this.
Speaker 3 (19:08):
This is a very immature person and the Democrats clearly
have a maturity problem.
Speaker 12 (19:14):
Federal prosecutors had argued the video clearly shows done throwing
the sandwich. During the trial, the border patrol officer who
was hit by the sandwich testified that it quote exploded
all over his chest and that he could smell the
mustard and onions.
Speaker 4 (19:27):
Oh that's no good.
Speaker 3 (19:28):
Plus, you know who likes to get hit by somebody
in a pink outfit.
Speaker 4 (19:32):
Uh, the video does look like the wrapping exploded.
Speaker 3 (19:35):
I don't know that the sandwich exploded, but it was
a hefty throw for a guy wearing pink shorts.
Speaker 4 (19:43):
And if you watch the video.
Speaker 3 (19:44):
It does look like the wrapping came off and the
sandwich just went everywhere.
Speaker 4 (19:49):
But they're saying now, the defense said that you.
Speaker 3 (19:53):
Could see footage of the sandwich intact in its wrapper
on the ground, so that negate the charge that the
sandwich exploded and mustard got on the kevlar vest also
kevlar vest, and I guess the officer in question was
teased a little bit back at the station. The guys
(20:14):
gave him a hard time. They got him a bunch
of subway sandwich, plushy dolls, and he had stickers. So
that proved that the officer wasn't harmed, at least that's
what the jury said.
Speaker 12 (20:26):
Then, the defense argued a picture of the sandwich on
the ground afterwards showed it was still in its wrapper
and therefore could not have exploded. And according to the defense,
the officer's bulletproofessed should have been more than enough to
protect him from a subject.
Speaker 4 (20:41):
I would say more than enough.
Speaker 12 (20:42):
And the defense said the border patrol officer got multiple
gag gifts afterwards from his coworkers, such as a plush
sandwich and a patch of the Subslinger that the officer
put on his lunch box, which the defense argued was
proof the agents were not really that upset or traumatized
by what happened.
Speaker 4 (20:59):
Go, I'm truly not that upset or traumatized.
Speaker 3 (21:01):
But the guy did throw something at a cop and
now he's able to walk all right.
Speaker 4 (21:05):
So here I got the list here Assault with a
deli weapon.
Speaker 3 (21:09):
The officer claimed assault, but the jury found it was
a meaty ocre charge. Good thing it wasn't a club sandwich.
Speaker 4 (21:16):
We heard that one before. Not all heroes wear capers.
He's no longer in a pickle. He beat the rap.
Speaker 3 (21:27):
If the rapper wasn't split, you must have quit. Something
went awry with the prosecution's case. Making a meal with
a coke no ice, that's pretty good. Apparently you can
diet a ham sandwich, but you can't convict a salami
sub and my all time favorite. The sub didn't survive,
so the police had to tag and bag in.
Speaker 4 (21:49):
I Am six forty live everywhere on the iHeartRadio app.
Speaker 8 (21:53):
You're listening to John Kobels on demand from KFIMI.
Speaker 3 (21:58):
Coming up following the news nobody wants to be governor
of California, and the few people that want to be
governor of California, nobody wants them to be governor of California.
The polls came out today and their neck and neck
for ten percent. So the race is wide open, absolutely
(22:22):
wide open, and frankly, politically speaking, it's astonishing that there
is no heir apparent, at least on the Democrat side.
Lieutenant governor usually is the person that is likely to
have the upper hand, and she was a she's quite
(22:42):
the unremarkable lieutenant governor. She has an unpronounceable name, and
she opened up an account to run for governor and
then she just said no and.
Speaker 4 (22:50):
Gave no reason, just bout out. Kamala Harris said no,
she doesn't want it.
Speaker 3 (22:55):
And last week you heard that Senator Alex Padilla, he
was out.
Speaker 4 (22:59):
That was my prediction. I thought Padia is going to.
Speaker 3 (23:01):
Come back and take this job because it's a much
better job than being in the minority in the Senate.
And he announced last week or Tuesday night that he
wasn't going to be governor.
Speaker 4 (23:12):
So it's completely wide open.
Speaker 3 (23:13):
Katie Porter fell apart Tony Atkins, the former Senate leader
and former Speaker of the Assembly. She had an open lane.
She just said no, I don't I'm closing my account,
not gonna be gon. So it's just completely wide open
and we'll talk about it coming up following the news
at three o'clock right now, the subway guy, the guy
(23:36):
that threw the subway sandwich at the ice officer, has
been acquitted.
Speaker 1 (23:39):
As Sean Dunn was made a cult hero by the
US attorney over charging him.
Speaker 4 (23:45):
It's plain and simple. When you overcharge, it's easy for
the defendant to be acquitted. Well, what should be the charge?
Speaker 3 (23:55):
I mean, there's no nice things that you're allowed to
throw at officers, So anytime you throw something at an
officer with the intent to hurt them, it's assault.
Speaker 4 (24:10):
It's assault on an officer.
Speaker 3 (24:11):
That it's comical because it's a subway sandwich doesn't lessen
to me your intent to be rude.
Speaker 4 (24:19):
And what if he was like, you know, look, there's.
Speaker 3 (24:24):
No way around this. This is the problem that Democrats have.
They don't have a political problem, they have a maturity problem.
This is immature behavior. There's no way around that. What
is interesting to me, I'll tell you what they interviewed
some they do men on the street interviews outside the subway.
Fox News and DC went down there and they talked
to people coming out of the subway at the same
(24:45):
subway shop, and they interviewed three different people.
Speaker 4 (24:49):
They were all women.
Speaker 3 (24:52):
And the only distinction between these women other than they
all wanted a subway was one was of color, one
was clearly black, and one was a white woman.
Speaker 4 (25:05):
And I find this fascinating.
Speaker 3 (25:07):
Listen to the reaction to the acquittal and the story
from this first subway customer in DC.
Speaker 11 (25:14):
It's disrespectful for the police officers.
Speaker 2 (25:17):
And you don't like that.
Speaker 4 (25:18):
No, I don't like that at all.
Speaker 3 (25:19):
Okay, woman of color disrespectful, doesn't like it at all.
Speaker 4 (25:23):
Here's a subway sandwich lady number two. I'm just disgusted
because he's an officer.
Speaker 3 (25:31):
See black woman sticking up for the officer. She's disgusted
by the story. She doesn't find him a hero. She's
not part of the cult. Following, so you have the women.
Two of the three women, they're disgusted. They are they are, well,
what did She's the first one. She was upsessed.
Speaker 4 (25:51):
It's disrespectful. She found it disrespectful, right like normal people.
Speaker 3 (25:57):
That is the normal reaction, whether or you support the
Interior enforcement of immigration law or not. It is immature,
it's disrespectful. Black lady says, it's disgusting.
Speaker 4 (26:10):
Then let's go find a liberal white woman. Gotta be
a liberal white woman. What's the liberal white woman's reaction.
Speaker 13 (26:15):
He didn't get hurt.
Speaker 14 (26:17):
There's no reason to get a felony because so what he's.
Speaker 13 (26:21):
Wearing a uniform. He's supposed to be a hero protector.
If he got a subway thrown at him, oh well.
Speaker 14 (26:27):
Like he should just you know, say don't do that,
or just get an apology.
Speaker 4 (26:31):
Isn't that fascinating?
Speaker 3 (26:33):
Like the women, the first two women, they are disgusted
by it. They find it very insulting, like they literally
are sticking up with the cops and they are of color.
And we're told by liberal white women that Ice is
going after people just because of the color of their skin.
And you have the white girl and she said, ah,
you know, it's a big deal throwing things at officers.
Speaker 4 (26:58):
He should just say stop. It shouldn't be a fella.
Speaker 3 (27:02):
This is hurt.
Speaker 4 (27:02):
It's just incredible to me.
Speaker 14 (27:03):
He didn't get hurt.
Speaker 3 (27:05):
He didn't get hurt, all right, So that's obviously the
follow up question. Had it been a brick or a
bottle and he'd been cut or impacted, his vision.
Speaker 9 (27:18):
Is that?
Speaker 4 (27:18):
Okay?
Speaker 10 (27:19):
Is it? So?
Speaker 3 (27:20):
The the sandwiches is what's uh, what's what's softening your heart?
Speaker 4 (27:24):
On the on the phony, he.
Speaker 14 (27:25):
Didn't get hurt, there's no reason to get a felony
because so what he's wearing a uniform.
Speaker 4 (27:32):
Yeah, So what he's wearing a uniform.
Speaker 3 (27:35):
Remember that when somebody's throwing sandwiches at you or hurting
you or trying to assault you, you're going to be
looking for somebody with a uniform.
Speaker 4 (27:46):
Unbelievable, Absolutely unbelievable.
Speaker 13 (27:48):
So what he's wearing a uniform. He's supposed to be
a hero protector. If he got a subway thrown at him,
oh well.
Speaker 14 (27:55):
Like he should just you know, say don't do that,
or just get an apology.
Speaker 3 (27:59):
Beware, liberal white woman in America, they're bad news and
big troubles. They far far away, all right, Who's gonna
be governor of California. Democrats are very good at planning.
They are great at this, much better than Republicans. I've
seen it in politics all the time. If you have
a Democrat representing you in the state Assembly, somebody on
(28:19):
that person's staff, like their district director or their chief
of staff. They're running for a local school board race,
or they're running for the board of education, or they're
on some kind of planning commission. If a state senator
is in office and it's a Democrat, they're grooming somebody,
They are mentoring somebody. They have somebody to take over
(28:39):
that State Senate, probably the State Assembly member, and then
everybody's got a plan, and then the state Senator is
going to open up an account. That person's going to
look to become the Secretary of Public Instruction. And they
all plans so they always know the next seat that
they're going to have. And it fell apart at the
highest seat possible, and that is the governor's race. There
(29:03):
was no plan to follow Gavin Newsom, and now the
race is wide open and nobody's even breaking twenty percent
in the polls.
Speaker 4 (29:12):
We'll talk about it coming up next.
Speaker 3 (29:14):
Lou Penrose Info John Coblt on KFI AM six forty
live everywhere on the iHeartRadio app.
Speaker 1 (29:19):
Hey, you've been listening to the John coblt Show podcast.
You can always hear the show live on KFI AM
six forty from one to four pm every Monday through Friday,
and of course anytime on demand on the iHeartRadio app
Can't.
Speaker 2 (00:01):
I am six.
Speaker 1 (00:02):
You're listening to the John Cobelt podcast on the iHeartRadio apps.
Speaker 3 (00:06):
It's the John Cobelt Show. Lou Penrose sitting here for
John Cobelt. Good to be with you. Flight delays across
America as air traffic controllers are feeling the pressure and
calling out, which is resulting in fewer air traffic controllers,
which is resulting in forty major airports in America experiencing delays.
(00:26):
Four percent reduction in flights and this is just step one,
so more next week. Los Angeles International Airport on the
list of flights of airports have affected. Michael Monks in
the KFI newsroom, Thanks so much for spending time with us.
Speaker 4 (00:42):
What are you hearing from LX.
Speaker 5 (00:44):
Well, it's not just LAX, it's also Ontario, it's also
San Diego. And that four percent has apparently meant some
pretty big headaches for folks traveling into and out of
LAX today. You know, yesterday when federal officials came out
and said we're going to reduce the flight capacity at
major airports across the country, they said ten percent. So
(01:05):
I guess it was a bit of a blessing that
that has been reduced to four percent today, but it
is expected to hit ten percent capacity reduction by next Friday,
starting with a six percent reduction on Tuesday, then an
eight percent reduction next Thursday, hitting that ten percent by
next Friday. So it's probably only going to get worse.
And it sounds like it's already pretty rough out there,
(01:28):
certainly rougher than an average day. Our colleague Melissa Aiden
from ABC News is at lax and reported this earlier.
Speaker 6 (01:36):
How do you get your flight back home to your destination?
Speaker 7 (01:39):
Right?
Speaker 6 (01:39):
So, if you're heading out to travel and this is
just the first leg of your travel, that is some
of the anxiety already that so many travelers and passengers
tell me that they're worried about. Here At United, they
have told us they were successfully able to rebook people
and passengers within four hours of their next available flight,
so United saying they were able to move on other
(02:00):
airlines as well, American Delta also sharing that they were
able to do so. But look, passengers tell me they're nervous.
Speaker 5 (02:07):
So passengers are nervous a little bit. I mean they
don't know what's going on. The airport officials across the
country are saying please take a look at your flight
schedule and checking with your airline before coming to the
airport at all, because if you get to the airport,
you go through the hassle of security and all of that,
and then find out that there's a delay or a cancelation,
then you're kind of just stuck there for a while.
Speaker 3 (02:28):
So like the four hour delay, from the airline's port
of view, it sounds like it's all right, we can
get you on your plane, get you to your city.
Just be a short four hour delay. Four hours is
a lot if you're traveling right. First off, it's eighteen
dollars a chardonay exactly, and you're stuck at LAX, which
is not always I mean, it's just such a vast
(02:50):
city Los Angeles Airport is.
Speaker 5 (02:52):
I mean, there are some airports that are probably fun
to hang out in, and there are others that are
less comfortable than others. So far today at Los Angeles
International Airport, according to flight aware dot com, there have
been a total of one hundred and sixty six delays
and fifty four total cancelations. In Ontario twenty five delays
and eight cancelations, and in San Diego more than one
(03:13):
hundred delays one hundred two and twenty seven total cancelations,
and that includes flights that are departing from these airports
and flights that are coming into that airport, So just
a rough time to fly here. It is a Friday
where you would expect folks to be getting away for
the weekend.
Speaker 4 (03:29):
And Tuesdays on holiday and Tuesday Mondays.
Speaker 5 (03:32):
Exactly could be a long weekend for some folks. And
the holidays are approaching. And I know there's been some
movement in Congress today to maybe start talking about talking
again about reaching some sort of compromise to reopen this government.
Speaker 4 (03:44):
But what we're.
Speaker 5 (03:45):
Seeing is the two biggest issues to come out of
this government shutdown has been this situation and then the
Snap benefits. And it looks like we've got some movement
on the Snap front today with funds being dispersed at
least in California and a few other states, while there's
a legal battle so ongoing. But people are really starting
to feel this very long government shutdown.
Speaker 4 (04:08):
Yeah, I mean part of this is by design, right.
Speaker 3 (04:12):
The whole purpose of a shutdown is to have people
be impacted, so they get angry, so they call their
senator and that's.
Speaker 4 (04:20):
Democracy, right, vox popular. But I don't know.
Speaker 3 (04:24):
The air traffic controller thing, it's too much like flying
is already a hassle.
Speaker 4 (04:30):
They already have this.
Speaker 3 (04:31):
Thing where like, oh, the airplane staff timed out, so
we had to go to another plane. Like there's already
connection problems, and now you add a four percent decrease,
which it's amazing, right, four percent, But look at this
impact exactly.
Speaker 5 (04:45):
I mean, this is bigger than a normal day, that's
for sure. I mean, you always risk a cancelation or
a delay, it's just the nature of the business. But
this many this is this is a typical. And the
situation is we're talking about passengers feeling it, or we're
talking about food stant recipients feeling it. These air traffic
controllers or these TSA agents, they felt it much earlier.
(05:07):
They've been working without getting paid for the hours that
they're putting in. And that's what is causing this is
there are air traffic controllers who have other issues in
their lives that they need to tend to rather than
to continue coming in working these long shifts without getting
their money for it. So it's just a very difficult
situation for those workers and it has now become a
very difficult situation for the everyday traveler.
Speaker 4 (05:29):
Okay, if it's Michael Monks, thanks so much. I appreciate you.
You got it all right, we'll talk again. It's just incredible.
Speaker 3 (05:35):
It's absolutely incredible when you consider that those are these numbers,
forty major airports, four percent a decrease in travel, and
it's going to ramp up to six and then eight
and then eventually ten by next weekend.
Speaker 4 (05:48):
And if the lines are as long as they are today,
or the.
Speaker 3 (05:52):
Impact is as big on Tuesday as it is today,
imagine by next weekend what.
Speaker 4 (05:58):
It's going to be.
Speaker 3 (06:00):
People have all kinds of plans and travel, and plus
you get car rentals, and now cars are not being
returned because people keeping the car for two more days.
It's just a it's an absolute mess, absolute mess. Loup
Penrose infa John Cobelt on The John Cobelt Show on
KFI AM six forty live everywhere on the iHeartRadio apps.
Speaker 8 (06:20):
You're listening to John Cobelt on demand from KFI AM
six forty.
Speaker 4 (06:26):
Lou Penrose in for John Cobelt on The John Cobelt Show.
Speaker 3 (06:30):
Flight delays forty major airports including LA four percent of
all activity, which is the starting point. According to the
Secretary of Transportation, We'll go up to ten percent by
next week, and people are not happy.
Speaker 9 (06:45):
Would you tell me, out of those light cancelations and
flight delays if any of those are international flights or
are they all domestic flights?
Speaker 4 (06:58):
What am I? Two to one one?
Speaker 3 (07:00):
Oh, They're only domestic flights. But I appreciate the call.
Oh man, a bad day at LA.
Speaker 2 (07:04):
Hey, Luke, Yeah, this government shutdown, the Republican shutdown.
Speaker 4 (07:07):
We're all calling it. It's exactly what Trump wanted. He
asked for it, he got it, and he could deal
with it.
Speaker 3 (07:12):
While he is dealing with it, they're scaling down the
flights to give air traffic controllers a little bit of space.
Speaker 2 (07:20):
I'm so happy that asked is hitting the fan for everyone,
because after things start affecting you is when it really
starts mattering to you. I don't care if it's Republican
or if it's Democrat. We as a society, I hope
it gets worse.
Speaker 4 (07:35):
Have a nice day, mister Joy.
Speaker 10 (07:37):
You gotta do what I do and just put private Yeah,
you know it's going to be five ten thousand dollars
to fly from here to San Francisco or something like that.
But time is priceless and it's worth every penny. Plus.
If you've ever flown private before, it's the only way
to fly, have a good one.
Speaker 4 (07:54):
I appreciate the call.
Speaker 3 (07:56):
I have to imagine that even private flights can feel
the stress.
Speaker 4 (08:01):
Well maybe not.
Speaker 3 (08:02):
Maybe they don't have to do with anything in the
terminal and they don't have to deal with the towers.
I don't know, but I don't know anybody that flies private.
But I was told the prices were going to come
down by now, Like it wasn't five thousand dollars. It
was supposed to be like eight hundred dollars to fly
private to San Francisco, like a couple of one hundred
(08:24):
dollars more than a first Classic. So those prices haven't
come down, but I appreciate the call. We'll see where
this goes. The Senate is in session. I'm looking at
it now on c SPAN, so they are there and
usually they're not there on a Friday.
Speaker 4 (08:42):
Senators are interesting animals.
Speaker 3 (08:45):
They are supposed to be the reasonable crowd, like the
House of Representatives is supposed to be hot. They all
go in hot and that's my design. The House of
Representatives are re elected every two years. They have to
face the voters all the time. They are always up
for reelection every two years. There are four hundred and
(09:07):
thirty five members of the House of Representatives, and they,
I mean, they're always checking the temperature of their constituents
and their districts. And now with Prop fifty here in California,
the ones running have all new people to meet and
to get to know and to in the case of Republicans,
convince independence and like minded Democrats in their brand new
(09:30):
district to like them, or to at least check the
temperature of what they are are thinking. So I'm actually
happy that the House is not involved in this discussion.
The Senate is just the opposite. The Senate is reelected
every six years, so they never have to deal with
voters like six years is forever. And it's a statewide office,
(09:53):
so they never have to worry about congressional districts, reapportionment
district lines.
Speaker 4 (09:59):
Cheating like Prop fifty.
Speaker 3 (10:00):
They don't have to worry about any of that because
they're elected statewide. And it's often been said that it
is the Senate. The Senate is the saucer that cools
the cup of tea. Right, the Senate is supposed to
be level headed, They're supposed to be calmed, there's decorum there.
These are the stately bunch. These are it's the House
of Lords, and they're supposed.
Speaker 4 (10:22):
To be the very reasonable bunch. So maybe that will
happen tonight. But usually they're out of there on Thursday.
Speaker 3 (10:30):
The Senate rarely works, and to see them there on
a Friday night means that I have to imagine that
they themselves want to get this over with, just because
I'm sure they're feeling pressure from their governors. Really, you
can't get a pulse on a state like how could
a senator possibly know what a majority of the constituents
(10:50):
feel on a complete issue, even like the senator from
Rhode Island, how could he possibly know, let alone the
senator from California or Texas.
Speaker 4 (10:58):
Or New York or Illinois.
Speaker 3 (11:00):
So they go on polling numbers, they go on what
leadership wants to do, and they go on what's good
for Democrats strategy or Republican strategy. And it's been clear
that this shutdown has been working for Republican senators. There's
one hundred senators, they're fifty three Republicans, and they were
(11:22):
able to peel off a Democrat Senator, John Fetterman from Pennsylvania,
and one independent senator, so they got the number up
to fifty five. So in politics, it matters not what
the numbers are, it matters the direction the numbers are going.
So Democrats were seeing the numbers go up closer and
closer to sixty. There's another independent, so that independent might
(11:47):
bring them to fifty six. Now you have four, and
Democrats started to see that, and I think they were
beginning to think about the narrative that they wanted to
write in giving into a clean cr But then Tuesday
night came and Democrats had a real victory lap.
Speaker 4 (12:06):
They had a great night, great.
Speaker 3 (12:08):
Turnout Virginia, New Jersey, New York City, Prop fifty in California,
and some other victories in state houses in Virginia. So
it was a good night for them, and I think
they want to continue this victory lap of a blue wave,
so they are not necessarily inclined to end this anytime soon.
Speaker 4 (12:30):
And Republicans don't want a cave.
Speaker 3 (12:32):
So here we are at the stillmate and around the
merry go round we go, But that they are working
on a Friday night is interesting to me. We'll see
how long that light is on in the Senate Chamber
as I watch it here on c Spend. All right,
So the guy in DC that through the subway sandwich
at the immigration officer was acquitted yesterday. They did not
(12:58):
find him guilty of of a felony. Was not felony assault,
which is quite surprising. But the jury said, no, it's
not felony assault. It's somewhere between a misdemeanor and free speech.
Here he is, he's very excited. What's his name here,
Here's Sean Dunn. Used to work for the Justice Department.
(13:21):
He used to work for you. You used to pay
a salary. He got fired after they found him throwing
sandwiches at federal officers.
Speaker 4 (13:28):
Now he's free to go.
Speaker 11 (13:29):
I am so happy that justice prevails in spite of
everything happening, and that night I believe that I was
protecting the rights of immigrants with salami.
Speaker 4 (13:44):
We also know the kind of sub.
Speaker 3 (13:46):
It turned out to be a salami sub with mustard
and onions.
Speaker 4 (13:52):
I don't know what else was on it that isn't
the standard sub.
Speaker 3 (13:54):
So he definitely customized his sub there and lost the
entire sub. He threw the whole sub twelve inches. Well,
the Internet has exploded with the jokes. I mean, there's
some pretty good ones up there. I have to admit,
I think this guy should be in bigger trouble than
he is in. You're not supposed to throw anything at officers.
How that's not assault is beyond me. It would be
(14:15):
assault if you threw it at anybody. Can't be thrown
sandwiches at people. You can't throw anything at people. Nevertheless,
the jokes are pretty hilarious and I'll share some with you.
That's all coming up next on the John Cobelt Show.
Lou Penrose Info John Cobelt on KFI AM six forty.
Speaker 8 (14:32):
You're listening to John cobelts on demand from KFI AM
six forty.
Speaker 3 (14:37):
Lou Penrose in for John Coblt. So, the guy that
threw the subway sandwich at the federal officer in DC
this past summer has been acquitted of felony charges.
Speaker 4 (14:50):
He is very happy about it.
Speaker 3 (14:52):
And the Internet, of course is blowing up with jokes
about the sandwich.
Speaker 4 (14:58):
Let me take you back. This was day after it
happened in d C s night.
Speaker 7 (15:03):
Seawan Dunn accused of attacking a federal officer with a
foot long subway sandwich similar to this one right here,
and it's all caught on camera.
Speaker 4 (15:12):
And it was all caught on camera.
Speaker 3 (15:13):
Here's the exchange between the former Justice Department employee.
Speaker 4 (15:19):
And law enforcement. You see these fascists right here.
Speaker 7 (15:25):
You take a look at this cell phone video from
late Sunday night, thirty seven year old Sean Dunn shown
in the pink shirt and shorts allegedly yelling at federal
officers on Fourteenth Street in d C.
Speaker 3 (15:37):
Goy, he's yelling shame. He's wearing pink and yelling shame.
And what's great about this is there is like a
whino nearby that is not part of the exchange. But
he's just doing color commentary. He's like right on, right.
Speaker 7 (15:52):
On, allegedly yelling at federal officers on fourteenth Street in
d C.
Speaker 3 (15:58):
But that's the truth that he has.
Speaker 7 (16:00):
Moments later, video appearing to show him crossing the street,
screaming just inches from a US Customs and Border Protection
officer's face, and then appearing to hit the officer in
the chest with a foot long subway sandwich.
Speaker 3 (16:14):
Turns out it with salami, and so they went to
court and it's all over, and Sean Dunn has been
acquitted a felony assault of an officer and is.
Speaker 4 (16:25):
Now a hero.
Speaker 12 (16:26):
Shawn Dunn had become something of a cult hero and
a symbol of the resistance to the Trump administration. Images
of him throwing that sandwich could be seen on T
shirts and buildings throughout DC.
Speaker 3 (16:38):
A cult hero for throwing food at law enforcement. I
have said this, and I maintain Democrats do not have
a political problem. Democrats have a maturity problem. Throwing food
at cops is immature.
Speaker 4 (16:57):
It's also quite stupid.
Speaker 3 (17:01):
I mean, how he's not doing time for assault is
beyond me. I get it that it's a sandwich, but
the cop doesn't know it's a sandwich.
Speaker 4 (17:09):
You have to put your mind. It puts your mind
in the you know, the.
Speaker 3 (17:12):
Person that's seeing the silhouette of something being thrown at them,
you're screaming shame, You're acting like.
Speaker 4 (17:18):
A nut, and you're losing your mind.
Speaker 3 (17:22):
And you know, people are throwing bottles, they're throwing rocks,
they're throwing all kinds of things at ice vans and
ice agents. And something's coming at an officer. He doesn't know.
It's a foot long sandwich from subway with salami and
onions and mustard.
Speaker 4 (17:40):
Like, what is the officer supposed to do? Wait until
he gets hit by it to find out that it
wasn't lethal.
Speaker 3 (17:48):
Like, the safest thing they can do is subdue you
before you throw anything. What if you were gonna throw
What if your plan was, I'll throw the sub at
this cop as a diversion, and then I'm going to
throw this rock at this other cops head Like, cops have.
Speaker 4 (18:06):
To protect themselves from many acts like you.
Speaker 3 (18:09):
But it is it's incredible to me that they You
know that he's a cult hero, and if you follow
this story on social media, he is. There are people
that are so happy for him. They want to put
together go fundme pages for his legal defense. I think
he has a legal defense fund. Here he was after
outside the courthouse. He's a He said, look, this was
(18:31):
he was protecting the illegals.
Speaker 11 (18:32):
I am so happy that justice prevails in spite of
everything happening. And that night, I believe that I was
protecting the rights of immigrants.
Speaker 4 (18:46):
How is that?
Speaker 7 (18:47):
So?
Speaker 4 (18:47):
This guy is a lawyer and he worked for the
Justice Department.
Speaker 3 (18:51):
How is insulting and screaming shame at law enforcement, which
is the arm of the law, and throwing food at them,
How is.
Speaker 4 (19:03):
That fighting for their rights? Maturity? This isn't this.
Speaker 3 (19:08):
This is a very immature person and the Democrats clearly
have a maturity problem.
Speaker 12 (19:14):
Federal prosecutors had argued the video clearly shows done throwing
the sandwich. During the trial, the border patrol officer who
was hit by the sandwich testified that it quote exploded
all over his chest and that he could smell the
mustard and onions.
Speaker 4 (19:27):
Oh that's no good.
Speaker 3 (19:28):
Plus, you know who likes to get hit by somebody
in a pink outfit.
Speaker 4 (19:32):
Uh, the video does look like the wrapping exploded.
Speaker 3 (19:35):
I don't know that the sandwich exploded, but it was
a hefty throw for a guy wearing pink shorts.
Speaker 4 (19:43):
And if you watch the video.
Speaker 3 (19:44):
It does look like the wrapping came off and the
sandwich just went everywhere.
Speaker 4 (19:49):
But they're saying now, the defense said that you.
Speaker 3 (19:53):
Could see footage of the sandwich intact in its wrapper
on the ground, so that negate the charge that the
sandwich exploded and mustard got on the kevlar vest also
kevlar vest, and I guess the officer in question was
teased a little bit back at the station. The guys
(20:14):
gave him a hard time. They got him a bunch
of subway sandwich, plushy dolls, and he had stickers. So
that proved that the officer wasn't harmed, at least that's
what the jury said.
Speaker 12 (20:26):
Then, the defense argued a picture of the sandwich on
the ground afterwards showed it was still in its wrapper
and therefore could not have exploded. And according to the defense,
the officer's bulletproofessed should have been more than enough to
protect him from a subject.
Speaker 4 (20:41):
I would say more than enough.
Speaker 12 (20:42):
And the defense said the border patrol officer got multiple
gag gifts afterwards from his coworkers, such as a plush
sandwich and a patch of the Subslinger that the officer
put on his lunch box, which the defense argued was
proof the agents were not really that upset or traumatized
by what happened.
Speaker 4 (20:59):
Go, I'm truly not that upset or traumatized.
Speaker 3 (21:01):
But the guy did throw something at a cop and
now he's able to walk all right.
Speaker 4 (21:05):
So here I got the list here Assault with a
deli weapon.
Speaker 3 (21:09):
The officer claimed assault, but the jury found it was
a meaty ocre charge. Good thing it wasn't a club sandwich.
Speaker 4 (21:16):
We heard that one before. Not all heroes wear capers.
He's no longer in a pickle. He beat the rap.
Speaker 3 (21:27):
If the rapper wasn't split, you must have quit. Something
went awry with the prosecution's case. Making a meal with
a coke no ice, that's pretty good. Apparently you can
diet a ham sandwich, but you can't convict a salami
sub and my all time favorite. The sub didn't survive,
so the police had to tag and bag in.
Speaker 4 (21:49):
I Am six forty live everywhere on the iHeartRadio app.
Speaker 8 (21:53):
You're listening to John Kobels on demand from KFIMI.
Speaker 3 (21:58):
Coming up following the news nobody wants to be governor
of California, and the few people that want to be
governor of California, nobody wants them to be governor of California.
The polls came out today and their neck and neck
for ten percent. So the race is wide open, absolutely
(22:22):
wide open, and frankly, politically speaking, it's astonishing that there
is no heir apparent, at least on the Democrat side.
Lieutenant governor usually is the person that is likely to
have the upper hand, and she was a she's quite
(22:42):
the unremarkable lieutenant governor. She has an unpronounceable name, and
she opened up an account to run for governor and
then she just said no and.
Speaker 4 (22:50):
Gave no reason, just bout out. Kamala Harris said no,
she doesn't want it.
Speaker 3 (22:55):
And last week you heard that Senator Alex Padilla, he
was out.
Speaker 4 (22:59):
That was my prediction. I thought Padia is going to.
Speaker 3 (23:01):
Come back and take this job because it's a much
better job than being in the minority in the Senate.
And he announced last week or Tuesday night that he
wasn't going to be governor.
Speaker 4 (23:12):
So it's completely wide open.
Speaker 3 (23:13):
Katie Porter fell apart Tony Atkins, the former Senate leader
and former Speaker of the Assembly. She had an open lane.
She just said no, I don't I'm closing my account,
not gonna be gon. So it's just completely wide open
and we'll talk about it coming up following the news
at three o'clock right now, the subway guy, the guy
(23:36):
that threw the subway sandwich at the ice officer, has
been acquitted.
Speaker 1 (23:39):
As Sean Dunn was made a cult hero by the
US attorney over charging him.
Speaker 4 (23:45):
It's plain and simple. When you overcharge, it's easy for
the defendant to be acquitted. Well, what should be the charge?
Speaker 3 (23:55):
I mean, there's no nice things that you're allowed to
throw at officers, So anytime you throw something at an
officer with the intent to hurt them, it's assault.
Speaker 4 (24:10):
It's assault on an officer.
Speaker 3 (24:11):
That it's comical because it's a subway sandwich doesn't lessen
to me your intent to be rude.
Speaker 4 (24:19):
And what if he was like, you know, look, there's.
Speaker 3 (24:24):
No way around this. This is the problem that Democrats have.
They don't have a political problem, they have a maturity problem.
This is immature behavior. There's no way around that. What
is interesting to me, I'll tell you what they interviewed
some they do men on the street interviews outside the subway.
Fox News and DC went down there and they talked
to people coming out of the subway at the same
(24:45):
subway shop, and they interviewed three different people.
Speaker 4 (24:49):
They were all women.
Speaker 3 (24:52):
And the only distinction between these women other than they
all wanted a subway was one was of color, one
was clearly black, and one was a white woman.
Speaker 4 (25:05):
And I find this fascinating.
Speaker 3 (25:07):
Listen to the reaction to the acquittal and the story
from this first subway customer in DC.
Speaker 11 (25:14):
It's disrespectful for the police officers.
Speaker 2 (25:17):
And you don't like that.
Speaker 4 (25:18):
No, I don't like that at all.
Speaker 3 (25:19):
Okay, woman of color disrespectful, doesn't like it at all.
Speaker 4 (25:23):
Here's a subway sandwich lady number two. I'm just disgusted
because he's an officer.
Speaker 3 (25:31):
See black woman sticking up for the officer. She's disgusted
by the story. She doesn't find him a hero. She's
not part of the cult. Following, so you have the women.
Two of the three women, they're disgusted. They are they are, well,
what did She's the first one. She was upsessed.
Speaker 4 (25:51):
It's disrespectful. She found it disrespectful, right like normal people.
Speaker 3 (25:57):
That is the normal reaction, whether or you support the
Interior enforcement of immigration law or not. It is immature,
it's disrespectful. Black lady says, it's disgusting.
Speaker 4 (26:10):
Then let's go find a liberal white woman. Gotta be
a liberal white woman. What's the liberal white woman's reaction.
Speaker 13 (26:15):
He didn't get hurt.
Speaker 14 (26:17):
There's no reason to get a felony because so what he's.
Speaker 13 (26:21):
Wearing a uniform. He's supposed to be a hero protector.
If he got a subway thrown at him, oh well.
Speaker 14 (26:27):
Like he should just you know, say don't do that,
or just get an apology.
Speaker 4 (26:31):
Isn't that fascinating?
Speaker 3 (26:33):
Like the women, the first two women, they are disgusted
by it. They find it very insulting, like they literally
are sticking up with the cops and they are of color.
And we're told by liberal white women that Ice is
going after people just because of the color of their skin.
And you have the white girl and she said, ah,
you know, it's a big deal throwing things at officers.
Speaker 4 (26:58):
He should just say stop. It shouldn't be a fella.
Speaker 3 (27:02):
This is hurt.
Speaker 4 (27:02):
It's just incredible to me.
Speaker 14 (27:03):
He didn't get hurt.
Speaker 3 (27:05):
He didn't get hurt, all right, So that's obviously the
follow up question. Had it been a brick or a
bottle and he'd been cut or impacted, his vision.
Speaker 9 (27:18):
Is that?
Speaker 4 (27:18):
Okay?
Speaker 10 (27:19):
Is it? So?
Speaker 3 (27:20):
The the sandwiches is what's uh, what's what's softening your heart?
Speaker 4 (27:24):
On the on the phony, he.
Speaker 14 (27:25):
Didn't get hurt, there's no reason to get a felony
because so what he's wearing a uniform.
Speaker 4 (27:32):
Yeah, So what he's wearing a uniform.
Speaker 3 (27:35):
Remember that when somebody's throwing sandwiches at you or hurting
you or trying to assault you, you're going to be
looking for somebody with a uniform.
Speaker 4 (27:46):
Unbelievable, Absolutely unbelievable.
Speaker 13 (27:48):
So what he's wearing a uniform. He's supposed to be
a hero protector. If he got a subway thrown at him,
oh well.
Speaker 14 (27:55):
Like he should just you know, say don't do that,
or just get an apology.
Speaker 3 (27:59):
Beware, liberal white woman in America, they're bad news and
big troubles. They far far away, all right, Who's gonna
be governor of California. Democrats are very good at planning.
They are great at this, much better than Republicans. I've
seen it in politics all the time. If you have
a Democrat representing you in the state Assembly, somebody on
(28:19):
that person's staff, like their district director or their chief
of staff. They're running for a local school board race,
or they're running for the board of education, or they're
on some kind of planning commission. If a state senator
is in office and it's a Democrat, they're grooming somebody,
They are mentoring somebody. They have somebody to take over
(28:39):
that State Senate, probably the State Assembly member, and then
everybody's got a plan, and then the state Senator is
going to open up an account. That person's going to
look to become the Secretary of Public Instruction. And they
all plans so they always know the next seat that
they're going to have. And it fell apart at the
highest seat possible, and that is the governor's race. There
(29:03):
was no plan to follow Gavin Newsom, and now the
race is wide open and nobody's even breaking twenty percent
in the polls.
Speaker 4 (29:12):
We'll talk about it coming up next.
