Speaker 1 (00:00):
Can't. I am six forty.
Speaker 2 (00:02):
You're listening to the John Cobelt podcast on the iHeartRadio app.
Have you missed anything John Cobelt's show on demand on
the iHeart app.
Speaker 1 (00:11):
It saves the radio show.
Speaker 2 (00:13):
Listen to the hour number one because we went extensively
into the latest bombshell revelations about firefighters the day after
the New Year's Day fire, seeing that the fire was
still smoldering. There was hot rocks, hot tree stumps, and
they wanted to stay to put it out, and a
battalion chief said no, we're going, and you know what
(00:35):
happened next. You definitely want to listen to the first
hour if you didn't hear it live. One more quick
thing about Kamala Harris because she got smacked around by
an Australian reporter. She's still she's still pushing this nonsense
about Biden being okay. Listen to She went on a
John Stewart podcast, John Stewart, the comedian, and she said
(01:00):
at one point I believe he was fully competent to
serve And Stuart raised his eyebrows and said do you
really I do, and start said that surprises me.
Speaker 1 (01:12):
Actually, do you think.
Speaker 3 (01:14):
She had a sign something before she announced that she
was running not to say anything disparaging about Biden.
Speaker 2 (01:21):
Some kind of non disclosure agreement, I ges you talk
about or they or they wouldn't because they anointed her,
they gave her the job.
Speaker 4 (01:29):
I think maybe that was I'm just wondering that's possible.
Speaker 2 (01:34):
Nothing would surprise me anymore. Alex Stone's coming on now.
From ABC News. Yesterday, Alex came and told us that
we have hungry air traffic controllers, we have hungry TSA
agents because they're not getting paid. Now, we have forty
two million other hungry people who rely on Snap benefits
known as food stamps. Money's running out on that too, Alex.
Speaker 1 (01:58):
How bad? Is this pretty bad?
Speaker 5 (02:00):
And yeah, you heard in Deborah's news there a moment
ago that waiting on a judge in Boston to say, well,
the government cannot cut off Snap benefits, but there's no
funding for it. So if the cord were to rule that,
where the money would come from for it for it
to continue on isn't clear. But already the food banks
from LA to across the country are seeing long lines
(02:22):
now of people who are realizing that they there's a
very good chance that they are not going to get
their benefits this weekend, and that they've got to get
food now before the food banks run out or before
there are very long lines. In Barstow. The police chief
is warning that grocery stores need to get ready for
theft to go up of those people who are getting
(02:43):
benefits and may steal food not able to afford it.
Speaker 1 (02:48):
Who knows if that really will go on.
Speaker 5 (02:50):
He says he's going to be increasing police at grocery
stores and patrols around them the bigger departments. I talk
to the LAPD today and they said, no, that's not
even on their radar, that they're not doing that, that
they're not a concern about those who can't afford food
going in and stealing it who are getting snap benefits.
Speaker 1 (03:06):
But Jenna Pierce is a mother of eight.
Speaker 5 (03:08):
She just lost her job lining up at a food
bank before the benefits go away, and she.
Speaker 2 (03:13):
Told us very stressful, worried.
Speaker 5 (03:15):
And now in Alabama they're preparing like they would for
a natural disaster and trying to move food into the
area like a hurricane hit Alabama.
Speaker 1 (03:23):
And I've been moving.
Speaker 5 (03:24):
Around resources getting food to the food banks. Surely Schofield
is the CEO of Food Bank Northern Alabama. She says,
they got to do it because it's about to get
really bad.
Speaker 6 (03:32):
Even though this is kind of man made, we're still
kind of operating as if it were an emergency.
Speaker 5 (03:37):
Here in California, the National Guard has been deployed stocking
food at food banks because of the expected rush coming
in this weekend.
Speaker 1 (03:45):
In Arizona, Patricia Lamb as a grandmother.
Speaker 5 (03:47):
Snap user, so she doesn't know she's going to figure
this out come Saturday when the money is set to
run out. I met two dollars and forty five cents
right now, and she says that is all she's got,
living at home, retired to a grandmother. Agnes Leon works
at a food bank, also a Snap recipient.
Speaker 1 (04:04):
It been days at how I go to sleep because
I'm thinking what's gonna happen to all of us?
Speaker 5 (04:09):
And John Feeding America reports for every one meal provided
by a food bank, that nine are provided by SNAP
in the US, So food banks are expecting right now
a tenfold increase in demand. That so many people get
these benefits, and you could debate the eligibility of the benefits,
but in this moment, all of a sudden poof, they're
going to go away unless some miracle happens in the
(04:31):
next twenty four to forty eight hours. That that is
a big problem all at one time that the country
is not ready for. And Jeane Marino, a kitchen supervisor
at Saint Luke's Mission and Mercy, says they're doing what
they can.
Speaker 2 (04:42):
I'm concerned that the numbers are going to probably double
every day.
Speaker 7 (04:46):
People are now.
Speaker 2 (04:48):
Asking for meals to go home to their kids after school,
or for the elderly they can't get here, or the disabled.
Speaker 5 (04:54):
So we'll see if there's a deal in the next
day or so or what that court in Boston does.
But again, if the court says the the government's got
to continue doing it without some kind of a deal,
how does the government continue doing it if the funding
isn't there. And then on top of all this, for
the food banks, like we talked about yesterday with the
TSA and the air traffic controllers, that it's not only
(05:15):
SNAP beneficiaries who are going and going to need help,
but the federal workers are going to the food banks
as well because they're not getting paid, and that there
are TSA and air traffic controllers now going to food banks.
So there is all of this demand on these food
pantries and they say they're going to do their best.
Speaker 1 (05:31):
To keep up.
Speaker 2 (05:33):
All right, Alex, that's twelve percent of the country, it's
forty two million.
Speaker 5 (05:37):
It's a lot.
Speaker 1 (05:38):
What are people doing that?
Speaker 5 (05:42):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (05:43):
Is anybody going to work? Well?
Speaker 5 (05:45):
Yeah, I mean that's a whole other debate about eligibility
for it and who's getting it and if they have jobs,
and are they not making enough for they not working
at all. But in this moment, you've got a lot
of retirees, a lot of families like that woman who's
a mother of.
Speaker 2 (06:02):
A There's Social Security, there's Medicare, there's Medicaid, there's all
kinds of welfare benefits beyond that.
Speaker 5 (06:10):
Yeah, but in this moment, those who have at least
become accustomed to or dependent on food is coming in
and in this way that Yeah, all the other stuff
is a longer term debate, but in this moment that's
going to shut off.
Speaker 1 (06:23):
And that is the concern.
Speaker 2 (06:25):
All right, Very good, Alex, Thank you Alex Stone from
ABC News.
Speaker 4 (06:31):
Well, how come members of Congress aren't going to be
going hungry?
Speaker 1 (06:34):
Some of them could probably go with that food for several.
Speaker 3 (06:37):
Months they need to go buy groceries for others.
Speaker 2 (06:40):
Yeah, you don't think they know what groceries cost? Or
I just forty two million people in the country. Crazy,
you don't have enough money for food? No, Just like,
what do people do all their lives? How do you
end up with no money for food?
Speaker 3 (06:55):
Well, and then you and I were talking about AI
taking over jobs yesterday, So how much worse it's going
to get in the future.
Speaker 2 (07:03):
I mean, my dad worked twelve hours a day, overnight shifts,
seven days a week. Most of my childhood worked for
fifty years in a factory, and my mom had a job.
My aunt lived with us, she had a job. I
was working since I was about fourteen, writing newspaper articles.
(07:26):
My wife's dad had three jobs at once.
Speaker 4 (07:28):
I was stelling shoes at the age of twelve.
Speaker 1 (07:31):
That doesn't surprise me. How many did you steal?
Speaker 3 (07:37):
Zero?
Speaker 1 (07:37):
You didn't shoplift one pair of shoes?
Speaker 4 (07:39):
I did not.
Speaker 1 (07:40):
No, Ok, get a lie detector on you. No, But
I'm serious.
Speaker 2 (07:45):
If you just get up in the morning and go
to work, and you do that all your life, and
you build up your social security qualifications and you qualify
for Medicare, then you qualify for Medicaid. At very least
everybody gets Medicaid, not to mention the wide variety of
welfare benefits beyond.
Speaker 1 (08:03):
That, what's everybody doing.
Speaker 2 (08:08):
I understand people get sick, but we've got Medicaid.
Speaker 1 (08:13):
Medicare for that.
Speaker 2 (08:15):
If you've got to work every day, not too many
bad things can happen. I don't think we have forty
two million people incapable of working. I'm just going to
go out on a limb there. Oh God, I got.
Speaker 1 (08:31):
So much stuff to cover here.
Speaker 2 (08:32):
I want to play some more Newsome stuff later in
the hour as well, with his interview with that potted
plant Jonathan Carl.
Speaker 8 (08:39):
You're listening to John Cobelt on demand from KFI AM
six forty.
Speaker 2 (08:46):
Here's another thing that Jonathan Carl didn't ask Kevin Newsom
about in their long winded interview on ABC News. I
came up with eighteen issues off the top of my
head that Newsom is directly responsible for. Eighteen of them.
None of them were asked. Here's a nineteenth and this
(09:07):
comes out of the California Globe.
Speaker 1 (09:10):
They have been going through.
Speaker 2 (09:12):
A report, a report written by California Assemblyman stan ellis
Our friend USC professor Michael MChE and a petroleum expert,
Michael Ariza, listen to this, This self inflicted gasoline crisis
(09:32):
because of Gavin Newsom's absurd policies, has actually creating a
national security threat. California produces less than twenty three percent
of its own petroleum needs. We import sixty five percent
of crude oil from foreign sources, and eight percent of
(09:57):
our state's GDP is oil and gas industry. And as
they report, without that eight percent, the other ninety two
percent would be impossible to attain. All our financial wealth
comes from the ability to burn gas and oil in California, Nevada,
(10:18):
and Arizona. I'm sorry. California has thirty two military bases.
They have the Pacific Fleet, the United States Marines at
Camp Pendleton, twenty nine Palms, Miramar, Barstol, US Coast Guard reports,
US Air Force bases and LA Edwards and Travis missile
(10:38):
bases at Van den Berg, the Navy.
Speaker 1 (10:42):
And with all this significant.
Speaker 2 (10:44):
Military presence, California energy policies, they say, the regulations, the
political sentiments is a direct threat to the military force
readiness and there must be federal intervention. They said that
California military bases could end up running out of jet
(11:06):
and aviation fuel if we had a military conflict and
we suddenly need a lot of fuel quickly. California has
no inbound pipeline supplying crude oil, gasoline or aviation fuel.
Ninety five percent of California's crude oil and gasoline supplies
are delivered by maritime tankers tankers at sea, most of
(11:30):
which are not US flagged vessels, and Michael also sent
a follow up email. Even though the Senate has passed
a bill that allows new drilling permits in Kern County
and Newsom is beating his chest over it, that will
not provide enough oil, the Crimson Pipeline is still in danger.
(11:53):
The Crimson Pipeline is the major north south oil artery
in the state. It's about to collapse because there's no
enough oil in it that's being shipped to the gas refineries.
And once you drop below a certain point, then the
pipeline doesn't function. It's like oh, the hydrants of the
(12:15):
Palisades when there wasn't enough water. There's not enough pressure,
Not much water is going to come out of there.
It's most likely going to close by March thirty. First,
we are so low on producing oil in this state
because of Gavenuisence policies, that our major pipeline is about
(12:36):
to shut itself down because of a lack of oil pressure,
a lack of oil being produced, and our supply chains
will be more complex and more vulnerable, and we are
going to be importing all this gas and oil which
will expel much more greenhouse gas into the atmosphere. These
(13:01):
long ocean treks the countries are buying the oil and
gas from have far far less atmospheric well they have,
They have far less concern for what they put in
the atmosphere. Most of these operations in other countries are
dirty operations, not even not reasonable operations, just outright dirty
(13:25):
because they don't care. So what we're doing here, this
is a slow motion train wreck. Been mourning about it
for months, It's coming.
Speaker 1 (13:36):
This is like.
Speaker 2 (13:37):
The fourth report Michael MChE has put out. Newsom has
destroyed the oil industry. He's destroyed our entire infrastructure. A
reversal must happen immediately. They have to stop the regulations,
stop the taxes, do something to prevent these refineries from closing.
(14:03):
Twenty twenty six is going to be a really bad
year here, and we had been run by fanatics for
so long and they'd gotten away with it. But there's
eventually consequences. The consequences are coming, and Lenny, you should
read a report, or at least go to California Globe
(14:23):
and read a summary of the report that the Assemblyman
stan allis the professor Michael mache and the petroleum excerpt.
Michael Loreza wrote on this you imagine our one major
pipeline shutting itself down from a lack of oil and
then what.
Speaker 1 (14:40):
All right?
Speaker 2 (14:40):
We come back though? Hey more with Jonathan Carl from
ABC News. He sat down with Newsomb for quite a while.
That was one of about nineteen issues that Jonathan Carl
did not cover with NEWSOM.
Speaker 1 (14:53):
They obsessed about Trump.
Speaker 2 (14:55):
Yes, Trump has nothing to do with the nineteen issues.
Speaker 1 (14:59):
Play more clips come.
Speaker 8 (15:01):
You're listening to John Cobbel's on demand from KFI AM
six forty.
Speaker 2 (15:06):
We are on every day from one until four and
then after four o'clock John cobelt Show on demand on
the iHeart app.
Speaker 1 (15:12):
Listen to what you missed.
Speaker 2 (15:13):
We went through the one o'clock hour, a shocking bombshell
of the story from the LA Times. They have text
messages from firefighters the day after the January first fire.
The fire, they said was put out, that's what the
fire department said. But firefighters saw that it wasn't completely
(15:33):
because there was still it was still smoldering, there was
still hot rocks and hot tree stumps, and they wanted
to stay there with their hoses just in case. And
a battalion chief said no, go home. And you know
what happened five days later, this in the face, in
the face of the National Service, a dancing predictions of
(15:57):
extreme fire danger, extreme wind danger. And the firefighter said,
you know, we gotta stay here. We got to keep
our hoses. And he said, no, roll up the hoses.
There's a battalion chief. And now nobody in LA management
wants to talk about it. They kept denying this for
the longest time. It was a huge, colossal mistake incompetent
(16:24):
because according to other retired fire officials, you have a
chance of fires reigniting when they're still hot, there's hot spots.
Of course, you stay, that's what you're supposed to do.
And they bolted. They bolted the day after. So anyway,
listen to that first hour. Gavin Newsome. It was on
(16:48):
with the ABC News Jonathan Carl They had short segment
segments on TV, they had a twenty six minute segment online.
And I just want to list again in case seating
here all the issues in California that you could ask about.
And I just did this off the top of my head,
(17:08):
about eighteen or nineteen of them. Now there's a new one.
We just discussed that the California oil pipeline is about
to shut itself down from a lack of oil. Let's see,
what if you had an interview with Gavin Newsom, what
could you ask him about. Well, you could ask him
about having the most homeless in the country, the highest
(17:29):
poverty rate, and most poor people on.
Speaker 1 (17:32):
Medicaid in the country.
Speaker 2 (17:34):
You could talk about the highest gas prices, the highest
electricity prices, the highest cost of living, the highest home cost,
the highest rental costs, the highest welfare rate, the highest
number of illegal aliens in addition to the thirty five
million we spend on the illegal aliens, the highest sales tax,
the highest gas tax, the inflation rate that's twenty percent
(17:59):
higher than the rest of the country, the twenty four
billion dollars that disappeared in homeless funding, the thirty plus
billion that disappeared in unemployment although scam artists overseas during COVID,
the seventeen billion that disappeared for high speed rail, there's
still no track, worst business climate, one of the worst
education outcomes.
Speaker 1 (18:22):
That's what you could ask.
Speaker 2 (18:24):
None of that was covered by Jonathan Carl of ABC News.
Speaker 1 (18:29):
Instead, it was all about Trump. Trump had nothing to
do with that list of nineteen issues. I just gave you.
Speaker 2 (18:38):
Kevin Newsom is intimately responsible for all of them. And
I'll give you the first cut early in the interview
where Carl asks Newsom about Trump backing down about sending
the National Guard to San Francisco.
Speaker 1 (18:54):
Play cut number one.
Speaker 8 (18:56):
The President was going to send the National Guard here, Yeah,
and all the all the indications were it was in motion.
Speaker 1 (19:01):
Yeah, and he backed down because he listens to billionaires.
Speaker 7 (19:05):
He listens to people with power and money, people that
he does business with, not literally but figuratively, with the
folks around this region that are doing business with his son,
doing business directly with the President, making contributions, donations. They
had his ear, they bent it, and he backed down.
Speaker 1 (19:24):
It's not complicated, Okay, It was not to stop right there.
Speaker 2 (19:30):
I heard Daniel Lurie, the mayor of San Francisco, on today,
did an interview on CNBC, and here's the story. He
told explained to Trump that they have a lot of
plans in the works to totally revitalize downtown San Francisco.
They're actively getting the homeless out and getting the uh
getting the criminals away, he said. He and he said
(19:53):
this publicly in interviews. You know, just give us time.
And he talked about all the businesses that now want
to open up stores again, that want to build buildings,
office towers, repopulate all the empty office space and empty
retail space. He said they suffered a huge tax blow.
(20:14):
Downtown used to be sixty percent of their tax space
and now it's forty percent. So he's working with all
the business leaders in town. And I guess they made
a good case. That's what happened. If Trump listened, it's
because Lourie said, look, we have a plan. Things are working.
(20:35):
We've got these businesses coming in. Business has been trying
to tell Gavin Newsom for years that he's crushing the
state with his regulation. How many times do you think
executives from the oil industry have been telling Newsom, you're
destroying it. We're going to go out of business. We're
(20:55):
going to leave the state. Now they are. There's two
refineries closing because of him. Now the oil pipeline and
is shutting down. Now gas could end up being eight
dollars a gallon or more because Newsom doesn't listen to
the executives and the millionaires and the billionaires. By the way,
this is what we need in Los Angeles. I don't
know if we have any wealthy business people left, but
(21:19):
that's what we need here is the business guys to
take over. They got one in Daniel Lourie. He's the
heir of the Levi fortune. That's what you need to
turn around this city. They're doing it in San Francisco.
Even Santa Monica's figured out that they've got to stop
their nonsense and get the homeless out so that retail
(21:40):
shops come back and restaurants come back, and visitors and
tourists and locals can walk the streets again. They claim
they have this new radical plan. That's what Ala has
to have. That's what Newsom should be insisting on. But
you know it's Trump's Trump's fault, right, He asked Newsom.
How did Democrats lose their way cut? Number four?
Speaker 1 (22:03):
How did Democrats those these weak weakness? I've always been struck.
Speaker 7 (22:07):
I mean Bill Clinton after Schilaki, I can't remember when
it was. I think he was out of office and
he said, and we all know the quote, given the choice,
the American people always sports.
Speaker 6 (22:15):
Strong and wrong, strong and wrong.
Speaker 7 (22:17):
Think about that and laship of Trump versus weak and right.
Speaker 6 (22:21):
We are so consumed by being right and these guys
are consumed by power. What do you think the whole
redistricting frameworks about my approach now to this moment and
what we're trying to do because just momently reconciling that
and waking up to that, here's what's.
Speaker 1 (22:34):
Going to change.
Speaker 2 (22:35):
Stop stop stop? Is he the only guy doesn't know?
I mean it's a ninety three IQ, So who knows
what we're dealing with?
Speaker 1 (22:44):
Here?
Speaker 2 (22:46):
Do we have to say this for the one thousandth
time there were ten million illegal owners that came through.
The public hated that there was nine percent inflation. The
public hated that Joe Biden was s nile. The public
hated that everyone's sick of hearing about race. Everybody's sick
hearing about transgender. They're sick, aunt of woke, They're sick
that the AI and that's all the Democrats were pushing.
That's just for starters off the top of my head,
(23:09):
but that that covers probably about ninety percent of what
motivated the vote instead. Oh, it's about weakness, It's about
strong and wrong. You were the term eighty twenty issues.
I'd never heard it before until this fall. How many
eighty twenty issues? Where Trump was on the eighty side,
Kamala was on the twenty side.
Speaker 1 (23:31):
Of course.
Speaker 2 (23:31):
Also in the interview, Biden was still pushing the idea
that Biden was the most successful president of the last
injury and that he wasn't senile. All right, more coming up, Deborah,
Oh wait, I got I got a way most story.
Speaker 1 (23:45):
I meant to do this.
Speaker 4 (23:46):
I see those everywhere.
Speaker 1 (23:48):
Oh do you see about the cat?
Speaker 2 (23:50):
No?
Speaker 4 (23:51):
Okay, but I'm not going to be here to wait.
Speaker 1 (23:53):
I'm going to do it right now.
Speaker 2 (23:55):
Special addition to the show, a cat up in San Francis.
Go well known cat the name kit cat fixture at
Randy's Market kind of lived at the market and the
cat was run over by a waymo.
Speaker 3 (24:13):
No, yes, no, I don't want to hear this never more.
Speaker 2 (24:16):
Yes, cat was last seen on the sidewalk next to
a transit lane, hit by the robot taxi. The driverless
card made a stop near the market and the cat
was found underneath.
Speaker 4 (24:28):
Did it survive?
Speaker 2 (24:30):
No, taken to an animal hospital and pronounced he ceased.
He was like a neighborhood cat. Everybody loved him. This
is the dangers of Weymouth.
Speaker 4 (24:39):
I'm telling you, thanks for that uplifting story.
Speaker 1 (24:41):
I thought we'd like to end our time together.
Speaker 2 (24:43):
I really know.
Speaker 4 (24:44):
No, I would have preferred something.
Speaker 2 (24:46):
I should have withheld it. Yes, Oh, okay, I'm sorry.
You want to see the picture of the cat.
Speaker 4 (24:52):
Yeah, do better next time.
Speaker 2 (24:54):
I'm sorry, but I'm trying to put out a public
service message about the dangers of the Weymouth.
Speaker 3 (24:59):
Yeah, I know, I just I didn't need to hear that,
all right, Sorry, I apologize.
Speaker 2 (25:03):
Okay.
Speaker 8 (25:04):
You're listening to John Cobbels on demand from KFI AM sixty.
Speaker 2 (25:10):
Our podcast will be released sometime after four o'clock on
the iHeart app. And again, you want to hear that
first hour where we cover the huge scandal that the
La Times uncovered. Firefighters text messages the day after the
New Year's Day fire, showed that they wanted to stay,
but their battalion chief said no, roll up your hoses,
(25:31):
even though everyone could see it was a hot spot
up there. This is the New Year's Day fire that
turned into the Palisades Fire a week later. And they
had hot stumps tree stumps, and they had hot rocks,
and they had smoldering going on, wisps of smoke, and
the firefighters thought they should stay, and it's all documented
(25:51):
in the text. But the battalion chief, for whatever what,
of some ungodly reason, said no, we should go. And
you know what happened. And that was while the warnings
were out about the wind and fire danger. All right,
So that's the first hour of the podcast. You know,
it should be a good thing. I should be trumpeting
this is a great thing, and it is. There's a
(26:14):
homeless encampment that's finally been cleared in Plia Vista. Listen
to this residence in Plia Vista, which is La County.
They have been reaching out to state and county leaders
and this is this is south of Marina Marina del Rey.
(26:37):
I've never been sure if that's part of La City
or La County. I guess based on this story, it's
La County. It's a long the ninety freeway, these tents,
and all of a sudden they're worried about fire danger
because you know, we've had fire warnings this week, right,
We've had red flag warnings sant Ana, Wi mornings, and
(27:01):
so you've got these tents and homeost People should never
be allowed to live outside, especially during fire danger times.
So Caltran's cruise showed up to get rid of them,
and this got some media coverage. Everybody was offered services.
But here's the thing that got me. Fox eleven talked
(27:24):
to a number of residents in the encampment who said
they'd lived there for six months. Six months they lived there,
Well said, what does that go back to?
Speaker 1 (27:37):
May? So that camp has been there on the side
of the highway. It's not hidden.
Speaker 2 (27:43):
Everybody could see it six months. Finally this week, I
guess maybe there's a few people in government who were
spooped by what happened in the Palisades last year, and
they were given these offers of service, and these people
said they're grateful for the services. So why didn't somebody
(28:05):
offer the services six months ago? This was near Beethoven
Street and ply A Vista.
Speaker 1 (28:13):
Six months they said it's going to be tough to move.
Speaker 2 (28:20):
The one woman named Alyssa says, one minute you're comfortable
and stable, the next you feel like the rug, the
rug is ripped out of your feet. I think it's
the rug is ripped from under your feet, right, But
she was comfortable and stable living on the side of
a freeway.
Speaker 1 (28:39):
In a tent.
Speaker 2 (28:41):
That's what I always say is the mindset here is
not my mindset. Your mindset. They don't mind living out
there in a tent, they don't mind living next to
a freeway.
Speaker 1 (28:50):
It's okay. They don't want to move.
Speaker 2 (28:52):
It's kind of kind of inconvenient now that she has
to be moved to somewhere else, but at least it
got done over here.
Speaker 1 (29:01):
We've got Conway up next.
Speaker 2 (29:03):
Michael Krazer with the news live in the KFI twenty
four hour Newsroom. Hey, you've been listening to the John
Cobalt 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. I am six forty.
Speaker 2 (00:02):
You're listening to the John Cobelt podcast on the iHeartRadio app.
Have you missed anything John Cobelt's show on demand on
the iHeart app.
Speaker 1 (00:11):
It saves the radio show.
Speaker 2 (00:13):
Listen to the hour number one because we went extensively
into the latest bombshell revelations about firefighters the day after
the New Year's Day fire, seeing that the fire was
still smoldering. There was hot rocks, hot tree stumps, and
they wanted to stay to put it out, and a
battalion chief said no, we're going, and you know what
(00:35):
happened next. You definitely want to listen to the first
hour if you didn't hear it live. One more quick
thing about Kamala Harris because she got smacked around by
an Australian reporter. She's still she's still pushing this nonsense
about Biden being okay. Listen to She went on a
John Stewart podcast, John Stewart, the comedian, and she said
(01:00):
at one point I believe he was fully competent to
serve And Stuart raised his eyebrows and said do you
really I do, and start said that surprises me.
Speaker 1 (01:12):
Actually, do you think.
Speaker 3 (01:14):
She had a sign something before she announced that she
was running not to say anything disparaging about Biden.
Speaker 2 (01:21):
Some kind of non disclosure agreement, I ges you talk
about or they or they wouldn't because they anointed her,
they gave her the job.
Speaker 4 (01:29):
I think maybe that was I'm just wondering that's possible.
Speaker 2 (01:34):
Nothing would surprise me anymore. Alex Stone's coming on now.
From ABC News. Yesterday, Alex came and told us that
we have hungry air traffic controllers, we have hungry TSA
agents because they're not getting paid. Now, we have forty
two million other hungry people who rely on Snap benefits
known as food stamps. Money's running out on that too, Alex.
Speaker 1 (01:58):
How bad? Is this pretty bad?
Speaker 5 (02:00):
And yeah, you heard in Deborah's news there a moment
ago that waiting on a judge in Boston to say, well,
the government cannot cut off Snap benefits, but there's no
funding for it. So if the cord were to rule that,
where the money would come from for it for it
to continue on isn't clear. But already the food banks
from LA to across the country are seeing long lines
(02:22):
now of people who are realizing that they there's a
very good chance that they are not going to get
their benefits this weekend, and that they've got to get
food now before the food banks run out or before
there are very long lines. In Barstow. The police chief
is warning that grocery stores need to get ready for
theft to go up of those people who are getting
(02:43):
benefits and may steal food not able to afford it.
Speaker 1 (02:48):
Who knows if that really will go on.
Speaker 5 (02:50):
He says he's going to be increasing police at grocery
stores and patrols around them the bigger departments. I talk
to the LAPD today and they said, no, that's not
even on their radar, that they're not doing that, that
they're not a concern about those who can't afford food
going in and stealing it who are getting snap benefits.
Speaker 1 (03:06):
But Jenna Pierce is a mother of eight.
Speaker 5 (03:08):
She just lost her job lining up at a food
bank before the benefits go away, and she.
Speaker 2 (03:13):
Told us very stressful, worried.
Speaker 5 (03:15):
And now in Alabama they're preparing like they would for
a natural disaster and trying to move food into the
area like a hurricane hit Alabama.
Speaker 1 (03:23):
And I've been moving.
Speaker 5 (03:24):
Around resources getting food to the food banks. Surely Schofield
is the CEO of Food Bank Northern Alabama. She says,
they got to do it because it's about to get
really bad.
Speaker 6 (03:32):
Even though this is kind of man made, we're still
kind of operating as if it were an emergency.
Speaker 5 (03:37):
Here in California, the National Guard has been deployed stocking
food at food banks because of the expected rush coming
in this weekend.
Speaker 1 (03:45):
In Arizona, Patricia Lamb as a grandmother.
Speaker 5 (03:47):
Snap user, so she doesn't know she's going to figure
this out come Saturday when the money is set to
run out. I met two dollars and forty five cents
right now, and she says that is all she's got,
living at home, retired to a grandmother. Agnes Leon works
at a food bank, also a Snap recipient.
Speaker 1 (04:04):
It been days at how I go to sleep because
I'm thinking what's gonna happen to all of us?
Speaker 5 (04:09):
And John Feeding America reports for every one meal provided
by a food bank, that nine are provided by SNAP
in the US, So food banks are expecting right now
a tenfold increase in demand. That so many people get
these benefits, and you could debate the eligibility of the benefits,
but in this moment, all of a sudden poof, they're
going to go away unless some miracle happens in the
(04:31):
next twenty four to forty eight hours. That that is
a big problem all at one time that the country
is not ready for. And Jeane Marino, a kitchen supervisor
at Saint Luke's Mission and Mercy, says they're doing what
they can.
Speaker 2 (04:42):
I'm concerned that the numbers are going to probably double
every day.
Speaker 7 (04:46):
People are now.
Speaker 2 (04:48):
Asking for meals to go home to their kids after school,
or for the elderly they can't get here, or the disabled.
Speaker 5 (04:54):
So we'll see if there's a deal in the next
day or so or what that court in Boston does.
But again, if the court says the the government's got
to continue doing it without some kind of a deal,
how does the government continue doing it if the funding
isn't there. And then on top of all this, for
the food banks, like we talked about yesterday with the
TSA and the air traffic controllers, that it's not only
(05:15):
SNAP beneficiaries who are going and going to need help,
but the federal workers are going to the food banks
as well because they're not getting paid, and that there
are TSA and air traffic controllers now going to food banks.
So there is all of this demand on these food
pantries and they say they're going to do their best.
Speaker 1 (05:31):
To keep up.
Speaker 2 (05:33):
All right, Alex, that's twelve percent of the country, it's
forty two million.
Speaker 5 (05:37):
It's a lot.
Speaker 1 (05:38):
What are people doing that?
Speaker 5 (05:42):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (05:43):
Is anybody going to work? Well?
Speaker 5 (05:45):
Yeah, I mean that's a whole other debate about eligibility
for it and who's getting it and if they have jobs,
and are they not making enough for they not working
at all. But in this moment, you've got a lot
of retirees, a lot of families like that woman who's
a mother of.
Speaker 2 (06:02):
A There's Social Security, there's Medicare, there's Medicaid, there's all
kinds of welfare benefits beyond that.
Speaker 5 (06:10):
Yeah, but in this moment, those who have at least
become accustomed to or dependent on food is coming in
and in this way that Yeah, all the other stuff
is a longer term debate, but in this moment that's
going to shut off.
Speaker 1 (06:23):
And that is the concern.
Speaker 2 (06:25):
All right, Very good, Alex, Thank you Alex Stone from
ABC News.
Speaker 4 (06:31):
Well, how come members of Congress aren't going to be
going hungry?
Speaker 1 (06:34):
Some of them could probably go with that food for several.
Speaker 3 (06:37):
Months they need to go buy groceries for others.
Speaker 2 (06:40):
Yeah, you don't think they know what groceries cost? Or
I just forty two million people in the country. Crazy,
you don't have enough money for food? No, Just like,
what do people do all their lives? How do you
end up with no money for food?
Speaker 3 (06:55):
Well, and then you and I were talking about AI
taking over jobs yesterday, So how much worse it's going
to get in the future.
Speaker 2 (07:03):
I mean, my dad worked twelve hours a day, overnight shifts,
seven days a week. Most of my childhood worked for
fifty years in a factory, and my mom had a job.
My aunt lived with us, she had a job. I
was working since I was about fourteen, writing newspaper articles.
(07:26):
My wife's dad had three jobs at once.
Speaker 4 (07:28):
I was stelling shoes at the age of twelve.
Speaker 1 (07:31):
That doesn't surprise me. How many did you steal?
Speaker 3 (07:37):
Zero?
Speaker 1 (07:37):
You didn't shoplift one pair of shoes?
Speaker 4 (07:39):
I did not.
Speaker 1 (07:40):
No, Ok, get a lie detector on you. No, But
I'm serious.
Speaker 2 (07:45):
If you just get up in the morning and go
to work, and you do that all your life, and
you build up your social security qualifications and you qualify
for Medicare, then you qualify for Medicaid. At very least
everybody gets Medicaid, not to mention the wide variety of
welfare benefits beyond.
Speaker 1 (08:03):
That, what's everybody doing.
Speaker 2 (08:08):
I understand people get sick, but we've got Medicaid.
Speaker 1 (08:13):
Medicare for that.
Speaker 2 (08:15):
If you've got to work every day, not too many
bad things can happen. I don't think we have forty
two million people incapable of working. I'm just going to
go out on a limb there. Oh God, I got.
Speaker 1 (08:31):
So much stuff to cover here.
Speaker 2 (08:32):
I want to play some more Newsome stuff later in
the hour as well, with his interview with that potted
plant Jonathan Carl.
Speaker 8 (08:39):
You're listening to John Cobelt on demand from KFI AM
six forty.
Speaker 2 (08:46):
Here's another thing that Jonathan Carl didn't ask Kevin Newsom
about in their long winded interview on ABC News. I
came up with eighteen issues off the top of my
head that Newsom is directly responsible for. Eighteen of them.
None of them were asked. Here's a nineteenth and this
(09:07):
comes out of the California Globe.
Speaker 1 (09:10):
They have been going through.
Speaker 2 (09:12):
A report, a report written by California Assemblyman stan ellis
Our friend USC professor Michael MChE and a petroleum expert,
Michael Ariza, listen to this, This self inflicted gasoline crisis
(09:32):
because of Gavin Newsom's absurd policies, has actually creating a
national security threat. California produces less than twenty three percent
of its own petroleum needs. We import sixty five percent
of crude oil from foreign sources, and eight percent of
(09:57):
our state's GDP is oil and gas industry. And as
they report, without that eight percent, the other ninety two
percent would be impossible to attain. All our financial wealth
comes from the ability to burn gas and oil in California, Nevada,
(10:18):
and Arizona. I'm sorry. California has thirty two military bases.
They have the Pacific Fleet, the United States Marines at
Camp Pendleton, twenty nine Palms, Miramar, Barstol, US Coast Guard reports,
US Air Force bases and LA Edwards and Travis missile
(10:38):
bases at Van den Berg, the Navy.
Speaker 1 (10:42):
And with all this significant.
Speaker 2 (10:44):
Military presence, California energy policies, they say, the regulations, the
political sentiments is a direct threat to the military force
readiness and there must be federal intervention. They said that
California military bases could end up running out of jet
(11:06):
and aviation fuel if we had a military conflict and
we suddenly need a lot of fuel quickly. California has
no inbound pipeline supplying crude oil, gasoline or aviation fuel.
Ninety five percent of California's crude oil and gasoline supplies
are delivered by maritime tankers tankers at sea, most of
(11:30):
which are not US flagged vessels, and Michael also sent
a follow up email. Even though the Senate has passed
a bill that allows new drilling permits in Kern County
and Newsom is beating his chest over it, that will
not provide enough oil, the Crimson Pipeline is still in danger.
(11:53):
The Crimson Pipeline is the major north south oil artery
in the state. It's about to collapse because there's no
enough oil in it that's being shipped to the gas refineries.
And once you drop below a certain point, then the
pipeline doesn't function. It's like oh, the hydrants of the
(12:15):
Palisades when there wasn't enough water. There's not enough pressure,
Not much water is going to come out of there.
It's most likely going to close by March thirty. First,
we are so low on producing oil in this state
because of Gavenuisence policies, that our major pipeline is about
(12:36):
to shut itself down because of a lack of oil pressure,
a lack of oil being produced, and our supply chains
will be more complex and more vulnerable, and we are
going to be importing all this gas and oil which
will expel much more greenhouse gas into the atmosphere. These
(13:01):
long ocean treks the countries are buying the oil and
gas from have far far less atmospheric well they have,
They have far less concern for what they put in
the atmosphere. Most of these operations in other countries are
dirty operations, not even not reasonable operations, just outright dirty
(13:25):
because they don't care. So what we're doing here, this
is a slow motion train wreck. Been mourning about it
for months, It's coming.
Speaker 1 (13:36):
This is like.
Speaker 2 (13:37):
The fourth report Michael MChE has put out. Newsom has
destroyed the oil industry. He's destroyed our entire infrastructure. A
reversal must happen immediately. They have to stop the regulations,
stop the taxes, do something to prevent these refineries from closing.
(14:03):
Twenty twenty six is going to be a really bad
year here, and we had been run by fanatics for
so long and they'd gotten away with it. But there's
eventually consequences. The consequences are coming, and Lenny, you should
read a report, or at least go to California Globe
(14:23):
and read a summary of the report that the Assemblyman
stan allis the professor Michael mache and the petroleum excerpt.
Michael Loreza wrote on this you imagine our one major
pipeline shutting itself down from a lack of oil and
then what.
Speaker 1 (14:40):
All right?
Speaker 2 (14:40):
We come back though? Hey more with Jonathan Carl from
ABC News. He sat down with Newsomb for quite a while.
That was one of about nineteen issues that Jonathan Carl
did not cover with NEWSOM.
Speaker 1 (14:53):
They obsessed about Trump.
Speaker 2 (14:55):
Yes, Trump has nothing to do with the nineteen issues.
Speaker 1 (14:59):
Play more clips come.
Speaker 8 (15:01):
You're listening to John Cobbel's on demand from KFI AM
six forty.
Speaker 2 (15:06):
We are on every day from one until four and
then after four o'clock John cobelt Show on demand on
the iHeart app.
Speaker 1 (15:12):
Listen to what you missed.
Speaker 2 (15:13):
We went through the one o'clock hour, a shocking bombshell
of the story from the LA Times. They have text
messages from firefighters the day after the January first fire.
The fire, they said was put out, that's what the
fire department said. But firefighters saw that it wasn't completely
(15:33):
because there was still it was still smoldering, there was
still hot rocks and hot tree stumps, and they wanted
to stay there with their hoses just in case. And
a battalion chief said no, go home. And you know
what happened five days later, this in the face, in
the face of the National Service, a dancing predictions of
(15:57):
extreme fire danger, extreme wind danger. And the firefighter said,
you know, we gotta stay here. We got to keep
our hoses. And he said, no, roll up the hoses.
There's a battalion chief. And now nobody in LA management
wants to talk about it. They kept denying this for
the longest time. It was a huge, colossal mistake incompetent
(16:24):
because according to other retired fire officials, you have a
chance of fires reigniting when they're still hot, there's hot spots.
Of course, you stay, that's what you're supposed to do.
And they bolted. They bolted the day after. So anyway,
listen to that first hour. Gavin Newsome. It was on
(16:48):
with the ABC News Jonathan Carl They had short segment
segments on TV, they had a twenty six minute segment online.
And I just want to list again in case seating
here all the issues in California that you could ask about.
And I just did this off the top of my head,
(17:08):
about eighteen or nineteen of them. Now there's a new one.
We just discussed that the California oil pipeline is about
to shut itself down from a lack of oil. Let's see,
what if you had an interview with Gavin Newsom, what
could you ask him about. Well, you could ask him
about having the most homeless in the country, the highest
(17:29):
poverty rate, and most poor people on.
Speaker 1 (17:32):
Medicaid in the country.
Speaker 2 (17:34):
You could talk about the highest gas prices, the highest
electricity prices, the highest cost of living, the highest home cost,
the highest rental costs, the highest welfare rate, the highest
number of illegal aliens in addition to the thirty five
million we spend on the illegal aliens, the highest sales tax,
the highest gas tax, the inflation rate that's twenty percent
(17:59):
higher than the rest of the country, the twenty four
billion dollars that disappeared in homeless funding, the thirty plus
billion that disappeared in unemployment although scam artists overseas during COVID,
the seventeen billion that disappeared for high speed rail, there's
still no track, worst business climate, one of the worst
education outcomes.
Speaker 1 (18:22):
That's what you could ask.
Speaker 2 (18:24):
None of that was covered by Jonathan Carl of ABC News.
Speaker 1 (18:29):
Instead, it was all about Trump. Trump had nothing to
do with that list of nineteen issues. I just gave you.
Speaker 2 (18:38):
Kevin Newsom is intimately responsible for all of them. And
I'll give you the first cut early in the interview
where Carl asks Newsom about Trump backing down about sending
the National Guard to San Francisco.
Speaker 1 (18:54):
Play cut number one.
Speaker 8 (18:56):
The President was going to send the National Guard here, Yeah,
and all the all the indications were it was in motion.
Speaker 1 (19:01):
Yeah, and he backed down because he listens to billionaires.
Speaker 7 (19:05):
He listens to people with power and money, people that
he does business with, not literally but figuratively, with the
folks around this region that are doing business with his son,
doing business directly with the President, making contributions, donations. They
had his ear, they bent it, and he backed down.
Speaker 1 (19:24):
It's not complicated, Okay, It was not to stop right there.
Speaker 2 (19:30):
I heard Daniel Lurie, the mayor of San Francisco, on today,
did an interview on CNBC, and here's the story. He
told explained to Trump that they have a lot of
plans in the works to totally revitalize downtown San Francisco.
They're actively getting the homeless out and getting the uh
getting the criminals away, he said. He and he said
(19:53):
this publicly in interviews. You know, just give us time.
And he talked about all the businesses that now want
to open up stores again, that want to build buildings,
office towers, repopulate all the empty office space and empty
retail space. He said they suffered a huge tax blow.
(20:14):
Downtown used to be sixty percent of their tax space
and now it's forty percent. So he's working with all
the business leaders in town. And I guess they made
a good case. That's what happened. If Trump listened, it's
because Lourie said, look, we have a plan. Things are working.
(20:35):
We've got these businesses coming in. Business has been trying
to tell Gavin Newsom for years that he's crushing the
state with his regulation. How many times do you think
executives from the oil industry have been telling Newsom, you're
destroying it. We're going to go out of business. We're
(20:55):
going to leave the state. Now they are. There's two
refineries closing because of him. Now the oil pipeline and
is shutting down. Now gas could end up being eight
dollars a gallon or more because Newsom doesn't listen to
the executives and the millionaires and the billionaires. By the way,
this is what we need in Los Angeles. I don't
know if we have any wealthy business people left, but
(21:19):
that's what we need here is the business guys to
take over. They got one in Daniel Lourie. He's the
heir of the Levi fortune. That's what you need to
turn around this city. They're doing it in San Francisco.
Even Santa Monica's figured out that they've got to stop
their nonsense and get the homeless out so that retail
(21:40):
shops come back and restaurants come back, and visitors and
tourists and locals can walk the streets again. They claim
they have this new radical plan. That's what Ala has
to have. That's what Newsom should be insisting on. But
you know it's Trump's Trump's fault, right, He asked Newsom.
How did Democrats lose their way cut? Number four?
Speaker 1 (22:03):
How did Democrats those these weak weakness? I've always been struck.
Speaker 7 (22:07):
I mean Bill Clinton after Schilaki, I can't remember when
it was. I think he was out of office and
he said, and we all know the quote, given the choice,
the American people always sports.
Speaker 6 (22:15):
Strong and wrong, strong and wrong.
Speaker 7 (22:17):
Think about that and laship of Trump versus weak and right.
Speaker 6 (22:21):
We are so consumed by being right and these guys
are consumed by power. What do you think the whole
redistricting frameworks about my approach now to this moment and
what we're trying to do because just momently reconciling that
and waking up to that, here's what's.
Speaker 1 (22:34):
Going to change.
Speaker 2 (22:35):
Stop stop stop? Is he the only guy doesn't know?
I mean it's a ninety three IQ, So who knows
what we're dealing with?
Speaker 1 (22:44):
Here?
Speaker 2 (22:46):
Do we have to say this for the one thousandth
time there were ten million illegal owners that came through.
The public hated that there was nine percent inflation. The
public hated that Joe Biden was s nile. The public
hated that everyone's sick of hearing about race. Everybody's sick
hearing about transgender. They're sick, aunt of woke, They're sick
that the AI and that's all the Democrats were pushing.
That's just for starters off the top of my head,
(23:09):
but that that covers probably about ninety percent of what
motivated the vote instead. Oh, it's about weakness, It's about
strong and wrong. You were the term eighty twenty issues.
I'd never heard it before until this fall. How many
eighty twenty issues? Where Trump was on the eighty side,
Kamala was on the twenty side.
Speaker 1 (23:31):
Of course.
Speaker 2 (23:31):
Also in the interview, Biden was still pushing the idea
that Biden was the most successful president of the last
injury and that he wasn't senile. All right, more coming up, Deborah,
Oh wait, I got I got a way most story.
Speaker 1 (23:45):
I meant to do this.
Speaker 4 (23:46):
I see those everywhere.
Speaker 1 (23:48):
Oh do you see about the cat?
Speaker 2 (23:50):
No?
Speaker 4 (23:51):
Okay, but I'm not going to be here to wait.
Speaker 1 (23:53):
I'm going to do it right now.
Speaker 2 (23:55):
Special addition to the show, a cat up in San Francis.
Go well known cat the name kit cat fixture at
Randy's Market kind of lived at the market and the
cat was run over by a waymo.
Speaker 3 (24:13):
No, yes, no, I don't want to hear this never more.
Speaker 2 (24:16):
Yes, cat was last seen on the sidewalk next to
a transit lane, hit by the robot taxi. The driverless
card made a stop near the market and the cat
was found underneath.
Speaker 4 (24:28):
Did it survive?
Speaker 2 (24:30):
No, taken to an animal hospital and pronounced he ceased.
He was like a neighborhood cat. Everybody loved him. This
is the dangers of Weymouth.
Speaker 4 (24:39):
I'm telling you, thanks for that uplifting story.
Speaker 1 (24:41):
I thought we'd like to end our time together.
Speaker 2 (24:43):
I really know.
Speaker 4 (24:44):
No, I would have preferred something.
Speaker 2 (24:46):
I should have withheld it. Yes, Oh, okay, I'm sorry.
You want to see the picture of the cat.
Speaker 4 (24:52):
Yeah, do better next time.
Speaker 2 (24:54):
I'm sorry, but I'm trying to put out a public
service message about the dangers of the Weymouth.
Speaker 3 (24:59):
Yeah, I know, I just I didn't need to hear that,
all right, Sorry, I apologize.
Speaker 2 (25:03):
Okay.
Speaker 8 (25:04):
You're listening to John Cobbels on demand from KFI AM sixty.
Speaker 2 (25:10):
Our podcast will be released sometime after four o'clock on
the iHeart app. And again, you want to hear that
first hour where we cover the huge scandal that the
La Times uncovered. Firefighters text messages the day after the
New Year's Day fire, showed that they wanted to stay,
but their battalion chief said no, roll up your hoses,
(25:31):
even though everyone could see it was a hot spot
up there. This is the New Year's Day fire that
turned into the Palisades Fire a week later. And they
had hot stumps tree stumps, and they had hot rocks,
and they had smoldering going on, wisps of smoke, and
the firefighters thought they should stay, and it's all documented
(25:51):
in the text. But the battalion chief, for whatever what,
of some ungodly reason, said no, we should go. And
you know what happened. And that was while the warnings
were out about the wind and fire danger. All right,
So that's the first hour of the podcast. You know,
it should be a good thing. I should be trumpeting
this is a great thing, and it is. There's a
(26:14):
homeless encampment that's finally been cleared in Plia Vista. Listen
to this residence in Plia Vista, which is La County.
They have been reaching out to state and county leaders
and this is this is south of Marina Marina del Rey.
(26:37):
I've never been sure if that's part of La City
or La County. I guess based on this story, it's
La County. It's a long the ninety freeway, these tents,
and all of a sudden they're worried about fire danger
because you know, we've had fire warnings this week, right,
We've had red flag warnings sant Ana, Wi mornings, and
(27:01):
so you've got these tents and homeost People should never
be allowed to live outside, especially during fire danger times.
So Caltran's cruise showed up to get rid of them,
and this got some media coverage. Everybody was offered services.
But here's the thing that got me. Fox eleven talked
(27:24):
to a number of residents in the encampment who said
they'd lived there for six months. Six months they lived there,
Well said, what does that go back to?
Speaker 1 (27:37):
May? So that camp has been there on the side
of the highway. It's not hidden.
Speaker 2 (27:43):
Everybody could see it six months. Finally this week, I
guess maybe there's a few people in government who were
spooped by what happened in the Palisades last year, and
they were given these offers of service, and these people
said they're grateful for the services. So why didn't somebody
(28:05):
offer the services six months ago? This was near Beethoven
Street and ply A Vista.
Speaker 1 (28:13):
Six months they said it's going to be tough to move.
Speaker 2 (28:20):
The one woman named Alyssa says, one minute you're comfortable
and stable, the next you feel like the rug, the
rug is ripped out of your feet. I think it's
the rug is ripped from under your feet, right, But
she was comfortable and stable living on the side of
a freeway.
Speaker 1 (28:39):
In a tent.
Speaker 2 (28:41):
That's what I always say is the mindset here is
not my mindset. Your mindset. They don't mind living out
there in a tent, they don't mind living next to
a freeway.
Speaker 1 (28:50):
It's okay. They don't want to move.
Speaker 2 (28:52):
It's kind of kind of inconvenient now that she has
to be moved to somewhere else, but at least it
got done over here.
Speaker 1 (29:01):
We've got Conway up next.
Speaker 2 (29:03):
