Speaker 1 (00:00):
Can't.
Speaker 2 (00:01):
I am six forty.
Speaker 3 (00:02):
You're listening to the John Cobelt podcast on the iHeartRadio app.
We do this from one until four o'clock, and then
after four o'clock you could listen to the podcast John
Cobelt's show on demand on the iHeart app. We have
been discussing, among other things, the Tom Holman and Apartment
(00:23):
of Homeland Security Trump they are getting rid of thousands
and thousands of illegal alien criminals. And I have to
remind everybody that has the support of eighty seven percent
of the country. There's a New York Times poll that
came out I guess a week or two ago. Eighty
seven percent of the public supports deporting illegal alien criminals.
(00:44):
And one of the most famous groups is the Venezuelan
prison gang trend Dear Ragua, also known as TDA. The
famous story about them commanding an apartment complex in Aurora, Colorado,
going back to I believe August of last year, and
all the politicians were claiming that that wasn't true, that
(01:08):
that was a figment of a council person's imagination. Well,
ICE has now done a raid and they found lots
of gang bangers in this apartment complex and Alex Stone
ABC News is gonna tell us all about it what
they find, Hey, John, Yeah, this is a large scale operation.
It's been underway really around the Denver metro area all
day today, started early this morning before the sun came up,
(01:30):
and it's been a number of different stops that the
agents have been making, primarily in Denver and in Aurora.
And we're told by Homeland Security Investigations HSI that they've
been targeting about one hundred people with links to that
Venezuelan gang TDA. And this does a lot of it
go back to that apartment complex and the claims from
(01:51):
President Trump and others and it was being run by
that gang. And as you mentioned, the police chief and
Aurora and the Republican mayor both denied that during the election. Today,
that apartment complex called the Edge of Lowery Apartments was
included in the raids. And we have ring doorbell audio
of Homeland Security agents early this morning before the sun
(02:11):
came up, knocking on one of the apartments and sounded
like this so the crack of dawn. A woman answered.
They asked if they could come in and look for drugs,
and she said no. They asked if she speaks English,
and she spoke perfect English, and it kind of ended
there at her door. It was Homeland Security Dea Ice
(02:32):
atf FBI and Hannah Sickline. She lives in the Cedar
Run apartments which were rated today as well, and she says,
this is how it went down to her apartment.
Speaker 4 (02:42):
The cops are going to ards door banging, and then
just a few minutes later, I got a bang on
my door and it was Ice. There was about six
of them. They were all heavily armed and demanding id
from me.
Speaker 3 (02:53):
And she says she believes that the problems, at least
in her apartment complex at Cedar Run Apartments are more
related to an absent landland and trash piled up and
the building falling apart and crime being allowed overall crime.
But she says it wasn't surprised that for them that
they got raided today.
Speaker 4 (03:08):
I was expecting this to happen, and not just because
we do have immigrants here, but because this place has
a reputation and its name has been put out there
as if this is a dangerous place.
Speaker 3 (03:18):
And there's been a lot of protests today as a
federal agents were carrying out the raids the scene across
the street that it seemed that groups that were against
what was going on, they kind of followed around the
agents around the metro area and then outside of the
Colorado State Capitol. This is what sounded like outside of
one of the apartment complexes. So the protesters were on bullhorns,
(03:42):
they were yelling at them. Then they went to the
Colorado State Capitol. The acting head of ICE, John was
part of this today and said that they would have
been a lot less showy if local police and jails
would cooperate and hand over criminals when they're in jail
instead of releasing them back into the community, something that
in California local authorities won't do either work with ICE
(04:03):
and the head of the current head of ICE acting
head saying this out on the scene looking.
Speaker 5 (04:08):
For trying to agua the gang members here from Venezuela.
Speaker 2 (04:11):
Unfortunately we have to come to the communities because we
don't get the cooperation that we need from the jails.
It would be so much.
Speaker 3 (04:17):
Easier and so much safer for our officers and agents
if we could take these people into custody from a
safe environment. And Denver police and Aurora Police are saying no,
that they have nothing to do with this and they're
not going to cooperate at all. But ICE saying today
they targeted around one hundred people. It's unclear if they
got anywhere near that many. Even on the bigger raids,
only one or two where three people were seeing publicly
coming out in handcuffs. HSI briefed a little while ago,
(04:39):
saying that they know they got at least one gang
member from Chile, but they still don't have final numbers
on how many they took into custody. But it's been
a big operation going on all day, using flash bangs
and other loud and bright devices as they were going
in and raiding the apartments and doing what the President
has said they will do. I was wondering why these
(05:02):
guys were hanging around since they became an international story.
I mean, everybody knew that you had a lot of
gang members in this complex, and once Trump and Homan
took over, I was shocked that they didn't all clear
out already. Yeah, not all of them stuck around Denver.
Only we know that because some arrests were made in
New York City a week two weeks ago, and some
(05:23):
of those were suspects out of Denver that are allegedly
part of TDA, and they were found in Manhattan, or
in Brooklyn or somewhere, but in New York. And so
some of them had bailed there, but they didn't bail
back to Venezuela or back to Chile. And the case
of one of those arrested today that they apparently went
to New York. Are the local politicians admitting now that
(05:46):
they were lying last summer when they claimed this didn't exist.
We haven't heard, at least I haven't heard from really
any of the politicians in Colorado. Day the mayor has,
you know, come out and said, the mayor of Denver
that still the city is not going to cooperate with it,
and telling people don't open your door and don't don't
answer your door and that sort of thing, saying that people.
Speaker 2 (06:04):
Even for the criminals.
Speaker 3 (06:05):
Huh, Well, I mean that, like that protest the audio
you played, even for these violent criminals.
Speaker 1 (06:10):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (06:10):
I assume the mayor is talking to about those that that,
you know, maybe like the woman that you heard of
had a sick line there where she's like, I'm you know,
I was born and raised here, and they were asking
me to prove that that I'm an American citizen. So
it's kind of the overall message to the community. I
don't know if the mayor would say, well to the
criminals that that that he means the same thing.
Speaker 2 (06:29):
Maybe he does. I don't know, but I'm sure.
Speaker 3 (06:31):
We're gonna hear there probably will be lawsuits about what
went on today with the raids, and that we will
hear backlash from some of the politicians in Colorado. But
not yet. All right, Alex Stone, thank you. You got
a picture on Alex Stone, ABC News reporting for KFI. Yeah,
the Jared Polis is the Democratic governor in Colorado. And
(06:54):
when when you know they there was a violent kidnapping
at the complex and the kidnappers tortured a couple and
burglarized their apartment and really the torture went on for hours,
and there was a video showing gang bangers carrying guns
forcing their way into apartment units. New York Post asks
(07:19):
Jared Polis about allegations made by a council member.
Speaker 2 (07:24):
Named Danielle Jurinsky.
Speaker 3 (07:26):
Durinsky had said the gang had taken over the apartment complex.
Polis's spokesperson responded, according to police intelligence, this purported invasion
is largely a feature of Danielle Durinsky's imagination.
Speaker 2 (07:42):
You believe this today.
Speaker 3 (07:45):
You got Ice looking for a hundred of these trend
Durrago gang members in August. It was a figment of
Danielle Durinsky's imagination. It was just last month when the
FEDS grabbed dozens of TDA gang bangers. There was a
makeshift nightclub outside of Denver and they broke up an
(08:09):
invitation only party. There was cash, weapons, guns, drugs. In fact,
they were selling a lot of tuc that's pink cocaine,
and that is their trademark. That the that the Venezuelan
gang sells. They had their own specialty pink cocaine.
Speaker 2 (08:30):
That's what they're known for.
Speaker 5 (08:32):
Now.
Speaker 2 (08:32):
You may have heard.
Speaker 3 (08:33):
That that Trump announced that the Venezuelan president has agreed
to take back all Venezuelan illegal migrants supported from the US.
We're in the process and we'moving record numbers of illegal
aliens from all countries, and all countries have agreed to
(08:53):
accept those illegal aliens back. Venezuela has agreed to receive
back in their country all the Venezuelan and illegal aliens
who were encamped in the US, including gang members of
Trend Dear Ragua. It's fascinating that the Venezuelan president will
take back these gang members. But you have American politicians
protesting and complaining about the violent gang members being deported.
(09:20):
You go figure, why are they Why are these people
ever voted into office and they remain in office protesting
the arrests of violent gang members when the home country said, yeah,
you all right, we'll take them back. I can see
why you wouldn't want them. The Venezuelan president is not saying, oh,
(09:42):
this is unfair. These are These are wonderful, hard workers
with families, just trying to get a get ahead and
live a better life. No, he's agreeing, yeah, these are
violent criminals, we'll take them back. Sorry about that. It's
are politicians who are making our lives miserable. What a
(10:05):
weird sick religion progressivism is. Uh, we have more coming up.
Speaker 6 (10:11):
You're listening to John Cobelt on demand from.
Speaker 5 (10:15):
K f I A M six forty.
Speaker 3 (10:18):
Now, you remember when the fires were breaking out, there
was a guy with the torch. They got loose in
Deborah's neighborhood.
Speaker 7 (10:25):
Yes, how can we forget that's.
Speaker 3 (10:28):
Right, actual guy with a torch, and your neighbors tackled
him and zip tied him.
Speaker 7 (10:33):
Oh yeah, we don't mess around.
Speaker 3 (10:36):
Yeah, and uh now you didn't do that right, You
weren't part of the I would would would zip tie
a guy twice?
Speaker 7 (10:50):
Your side houses on fire?
Speaker 2 (10:54):
Yeah, with the torch.
Speaker 3 (10:55):
And then there was a guy with the torch in
my neighborhood.
Speaker 5 (10:59):
I know how.
Speaker 2 (11:01):
I know, Well, there's another guy here.
Speaker 3 (11:03):
We're going to play a clip from Jemis Silver at
Fox eleven. Another arsonist was tackled by a group of
neighbors in Chatsworth.
Speaker 2 (11:14):
Listen to this story.
Speaker 1 (11:16):
They instinctly knew that something was wrong, and they acted immediately.
Speaker 7 (11:20):
They did not wait for authorities. Take a look.
Speaker 8 (11:23):
This is one of the neighbors chasing down the suspect.
Speaker 1 (11:26):
An arson suspect doesn't stand a chance when concerned citizens
take matters into their own hands, flat off into the
ground and perform it a citizen to rest.
Speaker 8 (11:37):
It's one of those moments where you're like filming and
you're like, wait, is this really happy in real life?
Speaker 1 (11:41):
Within seconds, La County Sheriff's deputies arrived and took control
of the scene. The suspect could be heard saying in Spanish.
He said he hadn't stolen anything, but that wasn't what
had the residence concerned.
Speaker 8 (11:57):
It just seemed a little strange that there was a
guy there. After there is a report of a brushfire
like a quarter mile up the road, and he's in
the bush doing something.
Speaker 1 (12:06):
Brandon Taylor, a photographer with Traffic News LA, had just
responded to a small brushfire on Monday, February third in
the twenty four thousand block of Woolsey Kenyon Road in Chatsworth.
By around four thirty pm, firefighters had quickly extinguished the
blaze nearby. This man caught Taylor's attention. He looked out
of place and suspicious.
Speaker 8 (12:28):
I saw a individual wearing all black in a bush.
It looked like he was trying to light something on fire,
and it was just kind of suspicious with the fire
being a quarter mile up the road.
Speaker 1 (12:40):
Deputy's found a lighter in his pocket, a couple of dollars,
and a car battery jumper kit. He's been identified as
forty one year old Alejandro Martinez in.
Speaker 7 (12:49):
The neighborhood Buddy Young.
Speaker 1 (12:51):
Neighborhood Alejandro martinezz schedule to be in court tomorrow.
Speaker 7 (12:55):
If you know anything.
Speaker 1 (12:56):
About this case, you're asked to contact the La County
Sheriff's Department.
Speaker 2 (13:01):
Yeah, are they going to put them in prison? Forty
one years old.
Speaker 3 (13:07):
Wasn't speaking English, probably not here legally, and they found
a lighter in his pocket and a car battery jumper kit.
So is he stealing cars in the neighborhood.
Speaker 2 (13:20):
And the thing is.
Speaker 3 (13:22):
People have to figilante groups I think are going to
are going to continue to form because what are you
going to do that there's not enough police to protect
us and these guys are running around starting fires. They
haven't explained the origin of some of these fires yet,
like the Hues fire, who they thought your torch carrier
(13:46):
may have set. Yeah, then they backed off on that,
and so who said it? And who started the Palisades fire.
They've been investigating that now for a month and they
haven't made it an ountnouncement as to how that started.
You know, is it arson or is it uh, you know,
homeless fires that nobody in government wants to admit.
Speaker 2 (14:09):
That the lack of information.
Speaker 3 (14:13):
Everybody in government has gone quiet for a couple of
weeks now, nobody's talking anymore. Nobody's explaining. Maybe, if you're
really wealthy and you work from the Hollywood talent agencies,
you'll get a personal zoom call from Steve sober Off.
But regular people and and they think we're gonna forget,
We're not going to forget. This is not going away,
(14:36):
and and uh, we're gonna We're gonna We're going to
find out everything. And the people in government who were
responsible for this mess are going to have to be forced.
Speaker 2 (14:44):
Out one way or another. They're going to be forced out.
Speaker 9 (14:49):
And people who uh, you know, would be arsonists. You
better beware people in the San Fernando Valley. They're not
going to take it. They're going to get you.
Speaker 2 (14:58):
No, no, I I noticed.
Speaker 7 (15:00):
That the valley everywhere.
Speaker 3 (15:02):
Yeah, yeah, I know. We got to start our own
like vigil anti groups.
Speaker 7 (15:07):
You have to.
Speaker 3 (15:07):
I'm serious, You're you're not supposed to say that out loud,
but I don't think we have a choice. We're so
short of cops, and the cops are not permitted to
do what they need to do. And you know that
we had four years or nobody was uh you think
all the crimes committed over the last four years, and
nobody ever went to went to jail, never went to prison.
(15:27):
And how many extra crimes they all committed and they
were motivated to commit more crimes. Imagine just the sheer
number of extra crimes that George Gascon brought us.
Speaker 2 (15:38):
But I was, I was, I was very.
Speaker 3 (15:40):
Happy to see this vigil anti group justice to this guy.
They were they were too nice to him.
Speaker 7 (15:48):
Well because they're worried about getting in trouble.
Speaker 3 (15:51):
But yeah, well there's going to be a group one day.
This is what's going to happen. People are going to
stop worrying if they get in trouble. They're just going
to stop.
Speaker 7 (16:00):
Yeah, I'm not going to worry anymore about getting in trouble.
Speaker 9 (16:02):
You know, I'm just gonna have to you know, we
all have to sort of protect ourselves.
Speaker 2 (16:08):
I wouldn't want to take you on, boy.
Speaker 9 (16:09):
No, you should see me when I'm really mad. I
maybe four eleven and three quarters.
Speaker 2 (16:16):
But what do you do to get you in trouble?
Speaker 1 (16:20):
Me?
Speaker 7 (16:20):
Yeah, you it's not about me.
Speaker 9 (16:23):
Even though you guys think it's all about me, it's
not about me. I we don't need to talk about that.
Speaker 2 (16:27):
What's the worst trouble you've ever gotten into?
Speaker 7 (16:32):
Back in the day. I'll tell you back in the
day real quick.
Speaker 9 (16:36):
I had a ex boyfriend that brought a BB gun
to my house when my parents weren't home, and I
wanted to return.
Speaker 7 (16:43):
It to him.
Speaker 9 (16:44):
So, being a stupid, I don't know, thirteen year old,
I'm walking down the street with this large BB gun
and somebody called the cops and thought somebody.
Speaker 7 (16:53):
Was carrying a rifle in the neighborhood.
Speaker 9 (16:55):
And the cops showed up and threw me in the car.
Speaker 7 (16:58):
The cop call.
Speaker 3 (17:00):
A four and a half foot tall thirteen year old,
they thought you were a domestic.
Speaker 7 (17:06):
They did, they did.
Speaker 2 (17:08):
It was say that was that was the good old day.
Speaker 9 (17:11):
Was somebody called they got me right away.
Speaker 3 (17:13):
Me me lap lap D wouldn't put up and stuff
like that. Neighbors were on parole on patrol there. Yep,
it was a lot very well. Say that never happened
to me. I never was caught carrying a gun.
Speaker 7 (17:28):
It was a BB.
Speaker 9 (17:29):
Gun and I was returning it to its right owner
because I didn't want.
Speaker 7 (17:33):
To get in any trouble.
Speaker 2 (17:35):
Nice boyfriend you were dating, Yeah, I know.
Speaker 7 (17:37):
I was a kid. John was a kid.
Speaker 2 (17:41):
U more coming up.
Speaker 6 (17:43):
You're listening to John Cobbel's on demand from kf I
Am six forty.
Speaker 3 (17:49):
We're on from one until four and then after four o'clock.
Whatever you missed, you can go to John Cobelt's show
on demand on the iHeart app. And if you haven't
been listening yet today you should go to the podcast.
We had Alex Stone explain about all the arrests going
on of the Trendy Ragua gang members in Aurora, Colorado.
We had Mariana Gatto, who is the director of the
(18:12):
Italian American Museum of Los Angeles, who had to deal
with those criminal thugs. These these vandals who protesting the deportations.
You have a young illegal alien men running around and
they vandalized and defaced the historic building that the Italian
(18:33):
American Museum has been in for for decades and decades.
Speaker 2 (18:37):
It's it's just ridiculous.
Speaker 3 (18:39):
Also, we talked with the reporter who broke the story
of Steve Soberoff's a private call with those Hollywood agents.
Sober Off leading the recovery in the Palisades, and he
had a lot of private information to tell them about
their their the value of their homes and whether or
trust the d w P water But as the reporter
(19:01):
from the daily The Free Beacon told.
Speaker 2 (19:03):
Us, He's also was.
Speaker 3 (19:06):
Much much more pessimistic about the recovery effort, saying only
five percent of the Palisades residents are going to be
able to cover their.
Speaker 2 (19:18):
To cover their reconstruction costs.
Speaker 3 (19:21):
That ninety five percent the insurance is going to fall
short and they're going to have to get the money elsewhere.
That's not like the raw ros speeches that he is
giving in public. Anyway, All that is on the podcast now.
One of the things we've been covering is uh Trump
Trump coming in. It is like a huge flush, like
a huge kolonic of a lot of garbage that has
(19:45):
gone on in the federal government for decades.
Speaker 2 (19:49):
And you know, this is what we need.
Speaker 3 (19:50):
We need that colonic in Los Angeles and in Sacramento.
We need all this garbage flushed away. One of the
uh one of what we opened the show with was
the story that Pam Bondi, who's the new Attorney General,
she's flat out gonna stop a federal funding that goes
(20:11):
to Los Angeles if they continue their sanctuary city policies.
That is going to be a huge fight coming up
immediately as soon as they could send out the official order,
but she said, no more any federal money that she
can control uh as attorney general, or that she has
some say so over UH. They're they're gonna, they're gonna
(20:34):
stop UH sending it to the to the sanctuary city
like Los Angeles, the whole century city crowd, Los Angeles,
San Francisco.
Speaker 2 (20:43):
Whole state really.
Speaker 3 (20:45):
And they're also flushing out all the diversity equity and
inclusion programs and firing all those people. All this bogus
nonsense that has infected all levels of government.
Speaker 2 (20:58):
We we went through a whole list today.
Speaker 3 (21:01):
Of people who are making big six figure salaries, and
we told you about one woman, Jayatsna Blackwell, who is
the Diversity, Equity, Inclusion, Accessibility and Belonging officer at the CDC.
Yet it wasn't just DEI, it was deia B. I'm
not making this up. It was diversity, Equity, Inclusion, Accessibility
(21:25):
and belonging. Why did they keep adding extra letters to
all these acrom acronyms like LGBTQIAA plus.
Speaker 2 (21:34):
And here's another one.
Speaker 3 (21:35):
Caroline Levitt, she is that very young spokesperson for Trump,
and she came out to talk about why the US
AID organization he's getting defunded. It's a forty billion dollar organization.
It's opposed to help out poor countries and people suffering,
(21:57):
whether it's diseases or poverty. Instead, it's estimated that seventy
to ninety percent of the money does not go to
people in these countries, but gets consumed by the bureaucracy
and the DEI nonsense. Here's a clip of her yesterday
telling reporters going through a list of all the bogus
(22:19):
programs that this agency's involved in.
Speaker 10 (22:21):
Through USAID over the past several years. These are some
of the insane priorities that that organization has been spending
money on. One point five million dollars to advance DEI
in Serbia's workplaces, seventy thousand for a production of a
DEI musical in Ireland, forty seven thousand for a transgender
opera in Colombia, thirty two thousand for a transgender comic
(22:44):
book in Peru. I don't know about you, but as
an American taxpayer, I don't want my dollars going towards
this crap, and I know the American people don't either,
And that's exactly what Elon Musk has been tasked by
President Trump to do to get the fraud, waste, and
abuse out of our federal government.
Speaker 3 (23:01):
You go through this list again. A million and a
half dollars to advance Dei in Serbia. Serbia is largely
made up of Serbians. You're not going to find much
diversity to begin with in Serbia. Seventy thousand dollars for
a Dei musical in Ireland. Diversity in Ireland is if
(23:26):
some people from Wales come for a vacation. A transgender
opera in Colombia. Now, who would do that? This is
why I go to work, This is why you go
to work. So they can have a transgender opera in Colombia.
And in return, Colombia sends US thousands of illegal aliens
and a hell of a lot of cocaine. That's not
(23:47):
a good trade. Thirty two thousand for a transgender comic
book in Peru. How does anybody even think of this?
How does somebody know to file to file for the grant.
There's some guy he's writing and drawing a transgender comic book,
(24:07):
and he knows that if he goes online there are
some forms in America will send you a thirty two
thousand dollars. Check, how do they know this? And who's
the person who approved that funding? I want their damn
I want to know for sure that they've been thrown
out into the street, like somebody actually picked them up
and tossed them into traffic. Transgender comic book, that's ridiculous.
(24:36):
When we come back. Got a story about an airplane,
a Boeing plane. Of course, it's been diverted four times
in twenty five days, four times in twenty five days.
Nobody knows why.
Speaker 6 (24:56):
You're listening to John Cobbels on demand from Kifi.
Speaker 2 (25:00):
A six forty Conway coming up in just minutes.
Speaker 3 (25:05):
I wanted to get this in this little clip. Trump
uh was talking to a female reporter from Afghanistan.
Speaker 2 (25:13):
Listen to Alice went.
Speaker 11 (25:18):
As I expectations from you. Do you have any plan
to change afghanistan situation? Are you able to recognize Taliban?
Because I'm an upgun journalist, up and suffer woman. Any
comment about Afghanistan? What's your future plant for a gun people,
especially Afghanistan.
Speaker 5 (25:34):
I have a little hard time understanding you.
Speaker 2 (25:37):
Where are you from?
Speaker 10 (25:40):
Actually it's a beautiful voice and a beautiful accents.
Speaker 1 (25:43):
The only problem is I can't understand the word you're saying,
but I just say this, good luck living trees.
Speaker 3 (25:55):
Good luck living beats. Dalaban is bulldozing every all right?
Speaker 2 (26:01):
All right?
Speaker 3 (26:02):
This Boeing plane I mentioned, I can't believe this. There
is a particular plane that Boeing made. It's the seven
eighty seven Dash eight Dreamliner. And in twenty five days
pilots had to divert the plane four times. This just
(26:22):
happened between January seventh and February first. Listen to this
a little quick rundown here. So on Tuesday, January seventh,
it was the plane was supposed to depart from Amsterdam
at one oh five in the afternoon, got delayed an
hour and forty minutes. The flight lasted eight minutes before
(26:45):
they dumped fuel in the North Sea and landed back
at Amsterdam Airport. It was met by emergency vehicles on
the runway. Three days later it was back in the
air and it completed a flight to from Amsterdam to Philadelphia,
(27:07):
and then it was supposed to turn around and go
to Dublin. But eighteen minutes into the flight from Philly
to Dublin, they turned the plane around and landed it
back in Philly. That three days later, the plane made
it to Barcelona. It was supposed to return to Philly,
(27:28):
and again it was diverted. The plane took off at
two zho five eleven minutes into the flight, it started
turning around and it landed at two thirty nine. So
that's three times. It was a quick diversion in twelve days.
They kept sending this plane up in the sky. They
(27:50):
sent it to a maintenance hangar for a few days
in Dallas, for a week actually, and then after four
successful flights, it was to fly to Zurich. But after
forty five minutes it turned around, actually after seven minutes
it turned around and it landed back at Zurich. Forty
(28:13):
five minutes later, it was going from Philly to Zurich.
Nobody can find a situation where you had four diversions
in less than a month for a single plane. And
the thing is they keep sending it up there, and
it's a Boeing plane on top of that.
Speaker 5 (28:33):
Now the.
Speaker 2 (28:38):
I'm sure they don't tell the passengers.
Speaker 3 (28:40):
Hey, by the way, this we've had to abort three
flights in the last week with this plane. So we're
just letting you know up front, who would stay on
the plane, And then I mentioned, no unless you're some
kind of airline geek. And I guess some airline geek
found this by looking at those airline apps like fly toware.
You wouldn't know that the plane you're on had had
(29:03):
only lasted less than an hour four times in a month.
Speaker 2 (29:10):
That's just Oh and today, what was that thing? Today?
Speaker 3 (29:13):
Japan Airlines their plane clipped a Delta plane. The Delta
plane was parked, and then the japan Airlines plane was
taxiing at the Seattle Airport and it left the wing
of the Japanese plane impaled on the tail of the
Delta jet, so it hit it and it stuck. Now,
(29:38):
the Delta jet that was hit had one hundred and
forty two passengers on board report after flying for eight
hours from Tokyo, and one of the passengers on the
Delta plane that was hit described violence shaking in the
(29:59):
plane are really loud, crunching sound. It was obvious right
away something was wrong, and the pilot later confirmed that
the plane had been hit. You know, I took a
flight last weekend. It's totally different. But we're stuck on
(30:19):
the tarmac at lax for almost an hour.
Speaker 2 (30:24):
You know why.
Speaker 3 (30:27):
Somebody forgot to load the luggage on the plane and
I actually missed my uh my connection Flighty. They forgot
to load the luggage, and the pilot pretty much said
that he was very frustrated. He said, I'm trying to
find somebody. There were thirty three bags that didn't load
(30:50):
thirty three bags. I thought, well, how the hell do
you forget? Or the guy took a break, and so
this plane is sitting on the tarmac for an hour
and we can't we can't go. I was supposed to
make a connection while that that was blown through.
Speaker 2 (31:05):
Conway.
Speaker 5 (31:05):
Here, yes, I'm here, I'm here.
Speaker 2 (31:08):
What's up?
Speaker 5 (31:09):
We got another airplane.
Speaker 12 (31:10):
Airplane left Vegas to Burbank today and made it safely.
We'll add that to the list no problems. That's gonna
be in the future. You know, we'll do be doing
stories like that plane left Munich, landed in New York,
no problems back to Crozier, you know that kind of stuff.
Speaker 5 (31:28):
We have Michael Monks.
Speaker 12 (31:29):
Coming on today the la City Council moves to address
this serious problem with street vending program.
Speaker 5 (31:35):
I don't know if you touched on that or not.
Speaker 2 (31:37):
And then we have Kennedy, Yeah, we have.
Speaker 12 (31:39):
I guess there's some kind of a big problem going
on with street vending. Just as I was getting into
the street vending game, wouldn't you wouldn't you know it?
Kennedy is coming on, you know, from MTV. I don't
know if she's done anything since then, but Kennedy, we'll
be on with us.
Speaker 5 (31:56):
Is she still on MTV?
Speaker 12 (31:59):
She she's on five years, many years. Yes, I should
turn that on. I'm a big MSNBC guy. And then
we're gonna talk pit bulls at six thirty. I upset
the pit bull community. I said that, I know, pretty dangerous.
Speaker 2 (32:18):
They're very hyper, they're so hyper sensitive.
Speaker 5 (32:21):
Yeah, you know, John, you're burying me.
Speaker 2 (32:28):
Stand up for yourself there, I will. It's six o five,
the most dangerous thirty five.
Speaker 12 (32:34):
All right, Well we'll replay this party, don't They'll jump
on your case.
Speaker 2 (32:38):
And the owners are crazy. How much said you got it?
I wouldn't want to.
Speaker 3 (32:47):
See that protest though, right they all bring pit bulls.
Speaker 2 (32:52):
Thirty guys with thirty pit bulls. That's from the station.
Speaker 5 (32:54):
Yes, right you this Have you ever been a dog guy?
Do you have a dog?
Speaker 2 (32:59):
We do a dog. Yes, that's so.
Speaker 3 (33:03):
It's a mini Schnauzer. It's a very nervous, excitable thing,
king lot. May somebody rings the doorbell?
Speaker 4 (33:11):
Yeah?
Speaker 12 (33:12):
And then how about these commercials on this station and
other stations where they play that sound effect.
Speaker 5 (33:16):
Of a doorbell and then the dog goes up.
Speaker 2 (33:19):
Yes all the time. Whatever, there's a doorbell on TV?
Speaker 5 (33:22):
That's right, yeah, yeah on TV?
Speaker 12 (33:24):

I stop it and I play like five times until
my wife comes in and yells at me. I do
the exact same thing, exact same thing, rewind it to
the the doorbell, and then my wife yells at.
Speaker 5 (33:57):
Me, God, what I mean? We have guys, just don't
grow up.
Speaker 2 (34:00):
By by you know? After AJ.
Speaker 3 (34:05):
All right, Conway's next Michael Crusher with the News live
the CAFI 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.
Speaker 2 (00:01):
I am six forty.
Speaker 3 (00:02):
You're listening to the John Cobelt podcast on the iHeartRadio app.
We do this from one until four o'clock, and then
after four o'clock you could listen to the podcast John
Cobelt's show on demand on the iHeart app. We have
been discussing, among other things, the Tom Holman and Apartment
(00:23):
of Homeland Security Trump they are getting rid of thousands
and thousands of illegal alien criminals. And I have to
remind everybody that has the support of eighty seven percent
of the country. There's a New York Times poll that
came out I guess a week or two ago. Eighty
seven percent of the public supports deporting illegal alien criminals.
(00:44):
And one of the most famous groups is the Venezuelan
prison gang trend Dear Ragua, also known as TDA. The
famous story about them commanding an apartment complex in Aurora, Colorado,
going back to I believe August of last year, and
all the politicians were claiming that that wasn't true, that
(01:08):
that was a figment of a council person's imagination. Well,
ICE has now done a raid and they found lots
of gang bangers in this apartment complex and Alex Stone
ABC News is gonna tell us all about it what
they find, Hey, John, Yeah, this is a large scale operation.
It's been underway really around the Denver metro area all
day today, started early this morning before the sun came up,
(01:30):
and it's been a number of different stops that the
agents have been making, primarily in Denver and in Aurora.
And we're told by Homeland Security Investigations HSI that they've
been targeting about one hundred people with links to that
Venezuelan gang TDA. And this does a lot of it
go back to that apartment complex and the claims from
(01:51):
President Trump and others and it was being run by
that gang. And as you mentioned, the police chief and
Aurora and the Republican mayor both denied that during the election. Today,
that apartment complex called the Edge of Lowery Apartments was
included in the raids. And we have ring doorbell audio
of Homeland Security agents early this morning before the sun
(02:11):
came up, knocking on one of the apartments and sounded
like this so the crack of dawn. A woman answered.
They asked if they could come in and look for drugs,
and she said no. They asked if she speaks English,
and she spoke perfect English, and it kind of ended
there at her door. It was Homeland Security Dea Ice
(02:32):
atf FBI and Hannah Sickline. She lives in the Cedar
Run apartments which were rated today as well, and she says,
this is how it went down to her apartment.
Speaker 4 (02:42):
The cops are going to ards door banging, and then
just a few minutes later, I got a bang on
my door and it was Ice. There was about six
of them. They were all heavily armed and demanding id
from me.
Speaker 3 (02:53):
And she says she believes that the problems, at least
in her apartment complex at Cedar Run Apartments are more
related to an absent landland and trash piled up and
the building falling apart and crime being allowed overall crime.
But she says it wasn't surprised that for them that
they got raided today.
Speaker 4 (03:08):
I was expecting this to happen, and not just because
we do have immigrants here, but because this place has
a reputation and its name has been put out there
as if this is a dangerous place.
Speaker 3 (03:18):
And there's been a lot of protests today as a
federal agents were carrying out the raids the scene across
the street that it seemed that groups that were against
what was going on, they kind of followed around the
agents around the metro area and then outside of the
Colorado State Capitol. This is what sounded like outside of
one of the apartment complexes. So the protesters were on bullhorns,
(03:42):
they were yelling at them. Then they went to the
Colorado State Capitol. The acting head of ICE, John was
part of this today and said that they would have
been a lot less showy if local police and jails
would cooperate and hand over criminals when they're in jail
instead of releasing them back into the community, something that
in California local authorities won't do either work with ICE
(04:03):
and the head of the current head of ICE acting
head saying this out on the scene looking.
Speaker 5 (04:08):
For trying to agua the gang members here from Venezuela.
Speaker 2 (04:11):
Unfortunately we have to come to the communities because we
don't get the cooperation that we need from the jails.
It would be so much.
Speaker 3 (04:17):
Easier and so much safer for our officers and agents
if we could take these people into custody from a
safe environment. And Denver police and Aurora Police are saying no,
that they have nothing to do with this and they're
not going to cooperate at all. But ICE saying today
they targeted around one hundred people. It's unclear if they
got anywhere near that many. Even on the bigger raids,
only one or two where three people were seeing publicly
coming out in handcuffs. HSI briefed a little while ago,
(04:39):
saying that they know they got at least one gang
member from Chile, but they still don't have final numbers
on how many they took into custody. But it's been
a big operation going on all day, using flash bangs
and other loud and bright devices as they were going
in and raiding the apartments and doing what the President
has said they will do. I was wondering why these
(05:02):
guys were hanging around since they became an international story.
I mean, everybody knew that you had a lot of
gang members in this complex, and once Trump and Homan
took over, I was shocked that they didn't all clear
out already. Yeah, not all of them stuck around Denver.
Only we know that because some arrests were made in
New York City a week two weeks ago, and some
(05:23):
of those were suspects out of Denver that are allegedly
part of TDA, and they were found in Manhattan, or
in Brooklyn or somewhere, but in New York. And so
some of them had bailed there, but they didn't bail
back to Venezuela or back to Chile. And the case
of one of those arrested today that they apparently went
to New York. Are the local politicians admitting now that
(05:46):
they were lying last summer when they claimed this didn't exist.
We haven't heard, at least I haven't heard from really
any of the politicians in Colorado. Day the mayor has,
you know, come out and said, the mayor of Denver
that still the city is not going to cooperate with it,
and telling people don't open your door and don't don't
answer your door and that sort of thing, saying that people.
Speaker 2 (06:04):
Even for the criminals.
Speaker 3 (06:05):
Huh, Well, I mean that, like that protest the audio
you played, even for these violent criminals.
Speaker 1 (06:10):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (06:10):
I assume the mayor is talking to about those that that,
you know, maybe like the woman that you heard of
had a sick line there where she's like, I'm you know,
I was born and raised here, and they were asking
me to prove that that I'm an American citizen. So
it's kind of the overall message to the community. I
don't know if the mayor would say, well to the
criminals that that that he means the same thing.
Speaker 2 (06:29):
Maybe he does. I don't know, but I'm sure.
Speaker 3 (06:31):
We're gonna hear there probably will be lawsuits about what
went on today with the raids, and that we will
hear backlash from some of the politicians in Colorado. But
not yet. All right, Alex Stone, thank you. You got
a picture on Alex Stone, ABC News reporting for KFI. Yeah,
the Jared Polis is the Democratic governor in Colorado. And
(06:54):
when when you know they there was a violent kidnapping
at the complex and the kidnappers tortured a couple and
burglarized their apartment and really the torture went on for hours,
and there was a video showing gang bangers carrying guns
forcing their way into apartment units. New York Post asks
(07:19):
Jared Polis about allegations made by a council member.
Speaker 2 (07:24):
Named Danielle Jurinsky.
Speaker 3 (07:26):
Durinsky had said the gang had taken over the apartment complex.
Polis's spokesperson responded, according to police intelligence, this purported invasion
is largely a feature of Danielle Durinsky's imagination.
Speaker 2 (07:42):
You believe this today.
Speaker 3 (07:45):
You got Ice looking for a hundred of these trend
Durrago gang members in August. It was a figment of
Danielle Durinsky's imagination. It was just last month when the
FEDS grabbed dozens of TDA gang bangers. There was a
makeshift nightclub outside of Denver and they broke up an
(08:09):
invitation only party. There was cash, weapons, guns, drugs. In fact,
they were selling a lot of tuc that's pink cocaine,
and that is their trademark. That the that the Venezuelan
gang sells. They had their own specialty pink cocaine.
Speaker 2 (08:30):
That's what they're known for.
Speaker 5 (08:32):
Now.
Speaker 2 (08:32):
You may have heard.
Speaker 3 (08:33):
That that Trump announced that the Venezuelan president has agreed
to take back all Venezuelan illegal migrants supported from the US.
We're in the process and we'moving record numbers of illegal
aliens from all countries, and all countries have agreed to
(08:53):
accept those illegal aliens back. Venezuela has agreed to receive
back in their country all the Venezuelan and illegal aliens
who were encamped in the US, including gang members of
Trend Dear Ragua. It's fascinating that the Venezuelan president will
take back these gang members. But you have American politicians
protesting and complaining about the violent gang members being deported.
(09:20):
You go figure, why are they Why are these people
ever voted into office and they remain in office protesting
the arrests of violent gang members when the home country said, yeah,
you all right, we'll take them back. I can see
why you wouldn't want them. The Venezuelan president is not saying, oh,
(09:42):
this is unfair. These are These are wonderful, hard workers
with families, just trying to get a get ahead and
live a better life. No, he's agreeing, yeah, these are
violent criminals, we'll take them back. Sorry about that. It's
are politicians who are making our lives miserable. What a
(10:05):
weird sick religion progressivism is. Uh, we have more coming up.
Speaker 6 (10:11):
You're listening to John Cobelt on demand from.
Speaker 5 (10:15):
K f I A M six forty.
Speaker 3 (10:18):
Now, you remember when the fires were breaking out, there
was a guy with the torch. They got loose in
Deborah's neighborhood.
Speaker 7 (10:25):
Yes, how can we forget that's.
Speaker 3 (10:28):
Right, actual guy with a torch, and your neighbors tackled
him and zip tied him.
Speaker 7 (10:33):
Oh yeah, we don't mess around.
Speaker 3 (10:36):
Yeah, and uh now you didn't do that right, You
weren't part of the I would would would zip tie
a guy twice?
Speaker 7 (10:50):
Your side houses on fire?
Speaker 2 (10:54):
Yeah, with the torch.
Speaker 3 (10:55):
And then there was a guy with the torch in
my neighborhood.
Speaker 5 (10:59):
I know how.
Speaker 2 (11:01):
I know, Well, there's another guy here.
Speaker 3 (11:03):
We're going to play a clip from Jemis Silver at
Fox eleven. Another arsonist was tackled by a group of
neighbors in Chatsworth.
Speaker 2 (11:14):
Listen to this story.
Speaker 1 (11:16):
They instinctly knew that something was wrong, and they acted immediately.
Speaker 7 (11:20):
They did not wait for authorities. Take a look.
Speaker 8 (11:23):
This is one of the neighbors chasing down the suspect.
Speaker 1 (11:26):
An arson suspect doesn't stand a chance when concerned citizens
take matters into their own hands, flat off into the
ground and perform it a citizen to rest.
Speaker 8 (11:37):
It's one of those moments where you're like filming and
you're like, wait, is this really happy in real life?
Speaker 1 (11:41):
Within seconds, La County Sheriff's deputies arrived and took control
of the scene. The suspect could be heard saying in Spanish.
He said he hadn't stolen anything, but that wasn't what
had the residence concerned.
Speaker 8 (11:57):
It just seemed a little strange that there was a
guy there. After there is a report of a brushfire
like a quarter mile up the road, and he's in
the bush doing something.
Speaker 1 (12:06):
Brandon Taylor, a photographer with Traffic News LA, had just
responded to a small brushfire on Monday, February third in
the twenty four thousand block of Woolsey Kenyon Road in Chatsworth.
By around four thirty pm, firefighters had quickly extinguished the
blaze nearby. This man caught Taylor's attention. He looked out
of place and suspicious.
Speaker 8 (12:28):
I saw a individual wearing all black in a bush.
It looked like he was trying to light something on fire,
and it was just kind of suspicious with the fire
being a quarter mile up the road.
Speaker 1 (12:40):
Deputy's found a lighter in his pocket, a couple of dollars,
and a car battery jumper kit. He's been identified as
forty one year old Alejandro Martinez in.
Speaker 7 (12:49):
The neighborhood Buddy Young.
Speaker 1 (12:51):
Neighborhood Alejandro martinezz schedule to be in court tomorrow.
Speaker 7 (12:55):
If you know anything.
Speaker 1 (12:56):
About this case, you're asked to contact the La County
Sheriff's Department.
Speaker 2 (13:01):
Yeah, are they going to put them in prison? Forty
one years old.
Speaker 3 (13:07):
Wasn't speaking English, probably not here legally, and they found
a lighter in his pocket and a car battery jumper kit.
So is he stealing cars in the neighborhood.
Speaker 2 (13:20):
And the thing is.
Speaker 3 (13:22):
People have to figilante groups I think are going to
are going to continue to form because what are you
going to do that there's not enough police to protect
us and these guys are running around starting fires. They
haven't explained the origin of some of these fires yet,
like the Hues fire, who they thought your torch carrier
(13:46):
may have set. Yeah, then they backed off on that,
and so who said it? And who started the Palisades fire.
They've been investigating that now for a month and they
haven't made it an ountnouncement as to how that started.
You know, is it arson or is it uh, you know,
homeless fires that nobody in government wants to admit.
Speaker 2 (14:09):
That the lack of information.
Speaker 3 (14:13):
Everybody in government has gone quiet for a couple of
weeks now, nobody's talking anymore. Nobody's explaining. Maybe, if you're
really wealthy and you work from the Hollywood talent agencies,
you'll get a personal zoom call from Steve sober Off.
But regular people and and they think we're gonna forget,
We're not going to forget. This is not going away,
(14:36):
and and uh, we're gonna We're gonna We're going to
find out everything. And the people in government who were
responsible for this mess are going to have to be forced.
Speaker 2 (14:44):
Out one way or another. They're going to be forced out.
Speaker 9 (14:49):
And people who uh, you know, would be arsonists. You
better beware people in the San Fernando Valley. They're not
going to take it. They're going to get you.
Speaker 2 (14:58):
No, no, I I noticed.
Speaker 7 (15:00):
That the valley everywhere.
Speaker 3 (15:02):
Yeah, yeah, I know. We got to start our own
like vigil anti groups.
Speaker 7 (15:07):
You have to.
Speaker 3 (15:07):
I'm serious, You're you're not supposed to say that out loud,
but I don't think we have a choice. We're so
short of cops, and the cops are not permitted to
do what they need to do. And you know that
we had four years or nobody was uh you think
all the crimes committed over the last four years, and
nobody ever went to went to jail, never went to prison.
(15:27):
And how many extra crimes they all committed and they
were motivated to commit more crimes. Imagine just the sheer
number of extra crimes that George Gascon brought us.
Speaker 2 (15:38):
But I was, I was, I was very.
Speaker 3 (15:40):
Happy to see this vigil anti group justice to this guy.
They were they were too nice to him.
Speaker 7 (15:48):
Well because they're worried about getting in trouble.
Speaker 3 (15:51):
But yeah, well there's going to be a group one day.
This is what's going to happen. People are going to
stop worrying if they get in trouble. They're just going
to stop.
Speaker 7 (16:00):
Yeah, I'm not going to worry anymore about getting in trouble.
Speaker 9 (16:02):
You know, I'm just gonna have to you know, we
all have to sort of protect ourselves.
Speaker 2 (16:08):
I wouldn't want to take you on, boy.
Speaker 9 (16:09):
No, you should see me when I'm really mad. I
maybe four eleven and three quarters.
Speaker 2 (16:16):
But what do you do to get you in trouble?
Speaker 1 (16:20):
Me?
Speaker 7 (16:20):
Yeah, you it's not about me.
Speaker 9 (16:23):
Even though you guys think it's all about me, it's
not about me. I we don't need to talk about that.
Speaker 2 (16:27):
What's the worst trouble you've ever gotten into?
Speaker 7 (16:32):
Back in the day. I'll tell you back in the
day real quick.
Speaker 9 (16:36):
I had a ex boyfriend that brought a BB gun
to my house when my parents weren't home, and I
wanted to return.
Speaker 7 (16:43):
It to him.
Speaker 9 (16:44):
So, being a stupid, I don't know, thirteen year old,
I'm walking down the street with this large BB gun
and somebody called the cops and thought somebody.
Speaker 7 (16:53):
Was carrying a rifle in the neighborhood.
Speaker 9 (16:55):
And the cops showed up and threw me in the car.
Speaker 7 (16:58):
The cop call.
Speaker 3 (17:00):
A four and a half foot tall thirteen year old,
they thought you were a domestic.
Speaker 7 (17:06):
They did, they did.
Speaker 2 (17:08):
It was say that was that was the good old day.
Speaker 9 (17:11):
Was somebody called they got me right away.
Speaker 3 (17:13):
Me me lap lap D wouldn't put up and stuff
like that. Neighbors were on parole on patrol there. Yep,
it was a lot very well. Say that never happened
to me. I never was caught carrying a gun.
Speaker 7 (17:28):
It was a BB.
Speaker 9 (17:29):
Gun and I was returning it to its right owner
because I didn't want.
Speaker 7 (17:33):
To get in any trouble.
Speaker 2 (17:35):
Nice boyfriend you were dating, Yeah, I know.

Speaker 2 (18:37):
It's it's just ridiculous.
Speaker 3 (18:39):
Also, we talked with the reporter who broke the story
of Steve Soberoff's a private call with those Hollywood agents.
Sober Off leading the recovery in the Palisades, and he
had a lot of private information to tell them about
their their the value of their homes and whether or
trust the d w P water But as the reporter
(19:01):
from the daily The Free Beacon told.
Speaker 2 (19:03):
Us, He's also was.
Speaker 3 (19:06):
Much much more pessimistic about the recovery effort, saying only
five percent of the Palisades residents are going to be
able to cover their.
Speaker 2 (19:18):
To cover their reconstruction costs.
Speaker 3 (19:21):
That ninety five percent the insurance is going to fall
short and they're going to have to get the money elsewhere.
That's not like the raw ros speeches that he is
giving in public. Anyway, All that is on the podcast now.
One of the things we've been covering is uh Trump
Trump coming in. It is like a huge flush, like
a huge kolonic of a lot of garbage that has
(19:45):
gone on in the federal government for decades.
Speaker 2 (19:49):
And you know, this is what we need.
Speaker 3 (19:50):
We need that colonic in Los Angeles and in Sacramento.
We need all this garbage flushed away. One of the
uh one of what we opened the show with was
the story that Pam Bondi, who's the new Attorney General,
she's flat out gonna stop a federal funding that goes
(20:11):
to Los Angeles if they continue their sanctuary city policies.
That is going to be a huge fight coming up
immediately as soon as they could send out the official order,
but she said, no more any federal money that she
can control uh as attorney general, or that she has
some say so over UH. They're they're gonna, they're gonna
(20:34):
stop UH sending it to the to the sanctuary city
like Los Angeles, the whole century city crowd, Los Angeles,
San Francisco.
Speaker 2 (20:43):
Whole state really.
Speaker 3 (20:45):
And they're also flushing out all the diversity equity and
inclusion programs and firing all those people. All this bogus
nonsense that has infected all levels of government.
Speaker 2 (20:58):
We we went through a whole list today.
Speaker 3 (21:01):
Of people who are making big six figure salaries, and
we told you about one woman, Jayatsna Blackwell, who is
the Diversity, Equity, Inclusion, Accessibility and Belonging officer at the CDC.
Yet it wasn't just DEI, it was deia B. I'm
not making this up. It was diversity, Equity, Inclusion, Accessibility
(21:25):
and belonging. Why did they keep adding extra letters to
all these acrom acronyms like LGBTQIAA plus.
Speaker 2 (21:34):
And here's another one.
Speaker 3 (21:35):
Caroline Levitt, she is that very young spokesperson for Trump,
and she came out to talk about why the US
AID organization he's getting defunded. It's a forty billion dollar organization.
It's opposed to help out poor countries and people suffering,
(21:57):
whether it's diseases or poverty. Instead, it's estimated that seventy
to ninety percent of the money does not go to
people in these countries, but gets consumed by the bureaucracy
and the DEI nonsense. Here's a clip of her yesterday
telling reporters going through a list of all the bogus
(22:19):
programs that this agency's involved in.
Speaker 10 (22:21):
Through USAID over the past several years. These are some
of the insane priorities that that organization has been spending
money on. One point five million dollars to advance DEI
in Serbia's workplaces, seventy thousand for a production of a
DEI musical in Ireland, forty seven thousand for a transgender
opera in Colombia, thirty two thousand for a transgender comic
(22:44):
book in Peru. I don't know about you, but as
an American taxpayer, I don't want my dollars going towards
this crap, and I know the American people don't either,
And that's exactly what Elon Musk has been tasked by
President Trump to do to get the fraud, waste, and
abuse out of our federal government.
Speaker 3 (23:01):
You go through this list again. A million and a
half dollars to advance Dei in Serbia. Serbia is largely
made up of Serbians. You're not going to find much
diversity to begin with in Serbia. Seventy thousand dollars for
a Dei musical in Ireland. Diversity in Ireland is if
(23:26):
some people from Wales come for a vacation. A transgender
opera in Colombia. Now, who would do that? This is
why I go to work, This is why you go
to work. So they can have a transgender opera in Colombia.
And in return, Colombia sends US thousands of illegal aliens
and a hell of a lot of cocaine. That's not
(23:47):
a good trade. Thirty two thousand for a transgender comic
book in Peru. How does anybody even think of this?
How does somebody know to file to file for the grant.
There's some guy he's writing and drawing a transgender comic book,
(24:07):
and he knows that if he goes online there are
some forms in America will send you a thirty two
thousand dollars. Check, how do they know this? And who's
the person who approved that funding? I want their damn
I want to know for sure that they've been thrown
out into the street, like somebody actually picked them up
and tossed them into traffic. Transgender comic book, that's ridiculous.
(24:36):
When we come back. Got a story about an airplane,
a Boeing plane. Of course, it's been diverted four times
in twenty five days, four times in twenty five days.
Nobody knows why.
Speaker 6 (24:56):
You're listening to John Cobbels on demand from Kifi.
Speaker 2 (25:00):
A six forty Conway coming up in just minutes.
Speaker 3 (25:05):
I wanted to get this in this little clip. Trump
uh was talking to a female reporter from Afghanistan.
Speaker 2 (25:13):
Listen to Alice went.
Speaker 11 (25:18):
As I expectations from you. Do you have any plan
to change afghanistan situation? Are you able to recognize Taliban?
Because I'm an upgun journalist, up and suffer woman. Any
comment about Afghanistan? What's your future plant for a gun people,
especially Afghanistan.
Speaker 5 (25:34):
I have a little hard time understanding you.
Speaker 2 (25:37):
Where are you from?
Speaker 10 (25:40):
Actually it's a beautiful voice and a beautiful accents.
Speaker 1 (25:43):
The only problem is I can't understand the word you're saying,
but I just say this, good luck living trees.
Speaker 3 (25:55):
Good luck living beats. Dalaban is bulldozing every all right?
Speaker 2 (26:01):
All right?
Speaker 3 (26:02):
This Boeing plane I mentioned, I can't believe this. There
is a particular plane that Boeing made. It's the seven
eighty seven Dash eight Dreamliner. And in twenty five days
pilots had to divert the plane four times. This just
(26:22):
happened between January seventh and February first. Listen to this
a little quick rundown here. So on Tuesday, January seventh,
it was the plane was supposed to depart from Amsterdam
at one oh five in the afternoon, got delayed an
hour and forty minutes. The flight lasted eight minutes before
(26:45):
they dumped fuel in the North Sea and landed back
at Amsterdam Airport. It was met by emergency vehicles on
the runway. Three days later it was back in the
air and it completed a flight to from Amsterdam to Philadelphia,
(27:07):
and then it was supposed to turn around and go
to Dublin. But eighteen minutes into the flight from Philly
to Dublin, they turned the plane around and landed it
back in Philly. That three days later, the plane made
it to Barcelona. It was supposed to return to Philly,
(27:28):
and again it was diverted. The plane took off at
two zho five eleven minutes into the flight, it started
turning around and it landed at two thirty nine. So
that's three times. It was a quick diversion in twelve days.
They kept sending this plane up in the sky. They
(27:50):
sent it to a maintenance hangar for a few days
in Dallas, for a week actually, and then after four
successful flights, it was to fly to Zurich. But after
forty five minutes it turned around, actually after seven minutes
it turned around and it landed back at Zurich. Forty
(28:13):
five minutes later, it was going from Philly to Zurich.
Nobody can find a situation where you had four diversions
in less than a month for a single plane. And
the thing is they keep sending it up there, and
it's a Boeing plane on top of that.
Speaker 5 (28:33):
Now the.
Speaker 2 (28:38):
I'm sure they don't tell the passengers.
Speaker 3 (28:40):
Hey, by the way, this we've had to abort three
flights in the last week with this plane. So we're
just letting you know up front, who would stay on
the plane, And then I mentioned, no unless you're some
kind of airline geek. And I guess some airline geek
found this by looking at those airline apps like fly toware.
You wouldn't know that the plane you're on had had
(29:03):
only lasted less than an hour four times in a month.
Speaker 2 (29:10):
That's just Oh and today, what was that thing? Today?
Speaker 3 (29:13):
Japan Airlines their plane clipped a Delta plane. The Delta
plane was parked, and then the japan Airlines plane was
taxiing at the Seattle Airport and it left the wing
of the Japanese plane impaled on the tail of the
Delta jet, so it hit it and it stuck. Now,
(29:38):
the Delta jet that was hit had one hundred and
forty two passengers on board report after flying for eight
hours from Tokyo, and one of the passengers on the
Delta plane that was hit described violence shaking in the
(29:59):
plane are really loud, crunching sound. It was obvious right
away something was wrong, and the pilot later confirmed that
the plane had been hit. You know, I took a
flight last weekend. It's totally different. But we're stuck on
(30:19):
the tarmac at lax for almost an hour.
Speaker 2 (30:24):
You know why.
Speaker 3 (30:27):
Somebody forgot to load the luggage on the plane and
I actually missed my uh my connection Flighty. They forgot
to load the luggage, and the pilot pretty much said
that he was very frustrated. He said, I'm trying to
find somebody. There were thirty three bags that didn't load
(30:50):
thirty three bags. I thought, well, how the hell do
you forget? Or the guy took a break, and so
this plane is sitting on the tarmac for an hour
and we can't we can't go. I was supposed to
make a connection while that that was blown through.
Speaker 2 (31:05):
Conway.
Speaker 5 (31:05):
Here, yes, I'm here, I'm here.
Speaker 2 (31:08):
What's up?
Speaker 5 (31:09):
We got another airplane.
Speaker 12 (31:10):
Airplane left Vegas to Burbank today and made it safely.
We'll add that to the list no problems. That's gonna
be in the future. You know, we'll do be doing
stories like that plane left Munich, landed in New York,
no problems back to Crozier, you know that kind of stuff.
Speaker 5 (31:28):
We have Michael Monks.
Speaker 12 (31:29):
Coming on today the la City Council moves to address
this serious problem with street vending program.

I don't know if you touched on that or not.
Speaker 2 (31:37):
And then we have Kennedy, Yeah, we have.
Speaker 12 (31:39):
I guess there's some kind of a big problem going
on with street vending. Just as I was getting into
the street vending game, wouldn't you wouldn't you know it?
Kennedy is coming on, you know, from MTV. I don't
know if she's done anything since then, but Kennedy, we'll
be on with us.
Speaker 5 (31:56):
Is she still on MTV?
Speaker 12 (31:59):
She she's on five years, many years. Yes, I should
turn that on. I'm a big MSNBC guy. And then
we're gonna talk pit bulls at six thirty. I upset
the pit bull community. I said that, I know, pretty dangerous.
Speaker 2 (32:18):
They're very hyper, they're so hyper sensitive.
Speaker 5 (32:21):
Yeah, you know, John, you're burying me.
Speaker 2 (32:28):
Stand up for yourself there, I will. It's six o five,
the most dangerous thirty five.
Speaker 12 (32:34):

on your case.
Speaker 2 (32:38):

king lot. May somebody rings the doorbell?
Speaker 4 (33:11):

Speaker 12 (33:12):

other stations where they play that sound effect.
Speaker 5 (33:16):
