Speaker 1 (00:01):
I am six forty. You're listening to the John Cobel
podcast on the iHeart Radio app. Where are you. There's
an iHeart Radio app somewhere somewhere, and it's all over
the world. We're in dozens and dozens of countries. We
have listeners there and in all fifty states. So there's
no excuse you if you can't be here listening to
(00:23):
KFI right now. You no matter where you are, you
can get the iHeart Radio app on your device. We're
on from one to four and then after four o'clock
listen to the podcast, John Cobolt's show on demand on
that iHeart app. All right, we've been covering for the
last week or so the absurdity in clubs California where
(00:45):
they had the state high school track and field championships.
This is the California Interscholastic Federation the ci app. If
you have kids who played high school sports, you're probably
familiar with that acronym, the CIF, and you know they
hold playoffs in all sports and Saturday was the state
(01:08):
finals featuring a boy, Aby Hernandez, who claimed to be
of a girl. Now, as far as I know, since he's
under age, he hasn't gone through any physical surgery, any transformation.
He has gone through male puberty. And it's caused a
(01:29):
big ruckus because obviously a guy in decent shape would
be able to beat a lot of girls, if not all,
the girls, in the high jump, the triple jump, and
the long jump. And Donald Trump got wint to this
and he posted something in social media saying, if Gavin
Newsom follows through, and I'm paraphrasing here, then we're going
(01:52):
to pull funding to California schools. Not specific what that is.
Understand under Title which was passed over fifty years ago
in nineteen seventy two, Title nine says that girls and
boys have to be treated equally scholastically in sports. That's
(02:12):
what it says. So what Newsom is doing and all
the other progressive weirdos in Sacramento is they're violating the
civil rights of these young girls that they have to
compete against somebody who's not a girl. I don't care
how you slice it, and I'll explain why because John
Girardi wrote a great piece in the National Review. And
(02:35):
in case you have any fog or confusion in your
brain as to what a girl is and what a
boy is and why a boy competing with girls? It's
deeply unfair. And those are Gavin Newsom's words, unfair. In
Trump's words, I noticed that Trump used unfair and Newsom
had an intensifier deeply unfair. So he was even more
(03:00):
more offended by this concept than Trump was, at least
in their writing. And Title nine is the law of
the land. And yeah, if you don't adhere to Title
nine and you're supposed to be protecting girls, or you
could lose your your funding. All right, it's basic American
civil rights. There is no question about this, all right.
(03:21):
Just because you shout louder, just because you get emotional,
just because you're willing to call everybody else some weird
name that no one even heard of ten years ago,
doesn't mean you're right. It still means you're wrong. So
Newsom got stuck. He'd already pissed off his progressive fanatics,
(03:43):
and now he's pissing Trump off and those followers. And
really there's no home for him on this one, because
you got to admit he's either a boy or a girl,
and he isn't a girl, which means he's a boy.
And so this whole thing is a is a charade.
So the CIF changed its policies a couple of times
(04:04):
and they came up with this weird compromise. He could
compete in girls' events, but any girl who would miss
out on qualifying because a transgender athlete was in the
way would qualify anyway into the next round, and the
medals and final rankings for the girls would be awarded
as if the transgender athlete was not competing. I follow
(04:26):
that transgender athlete would still get the medals, would still
get the championship, but the second place finisher would end
up first, and then the third place would be second,
so you'd end up with two champions. Now here's what's ridiculous.
(04:47):
At the end of the triple jump competition, there was
two first place finishers. Ab Hernandez from Harupa Valley, the transgender.
She jumped forty two feet two and three quarter inches.
Kira gent Hatcher from Saint Mary's College in Alberdy, California.
She jumped forty feet five inches. So the winner jumped
(05:09):
over forty two feet and the other winner jumped forty feet.
That's the advantage that Aby Hernandez had being a boy.
She could jump two feet better than the best girl.
Then in third place was Sancha Ali from Clayton Valley
(05:33):
in Concord. She was in third place at thirty nine
feet ten inches, but was awarded second place, so he competed,
but Hernandez was not considered the winner, except he was
considered the winner. You understand the problem here. It's just
complete nonsense. Now, as another issue accommodations for transgenders in
(06:00):
girl sports, males are permitted into women's bathrooms. Who wants that?
Do you want to? You want a guy in in
your daughter's bathroom if she's in a sport showers and
locker rooms? How about that? How about standing with a
teenage guy who claims he's a girl and he's totally
(06:20):
exposed in your daughter's bathroom. By the way, this law
passed it in twenty thirteen, you probably didn't notice fourteen
year old freshman girls, according to John Girardi from the
National Review, who must endure the presence, in some cases
an eighteen year old male, whether they have their intact
reproductive organs or not. And when Trump issued a directive
(06:44):
on this, he specifically said males can't be in female
locker rooms. That violates title nine. Now on Saturday, we're
the finals and Aby Hernandez, a transgender, easily won the
triple jump by twenty two and a half inches place
in the long jump. Here's the thing, and John Girardi
(07:04):
analyzed Ab Hernanze's form. He's Girardi said that Hernandez, the transgender,
his form is not particularly good. He fails to adequately pump, gather,
and utilize his arms to achieve the optimal height. The
female jumpers pump their arms more vigorously to get the
(07:26):
momentum for the high jump. But because Hernandez has a
male frame, male height, and male muscle, these advantages compensate
for the inadequacies of his form. So he's got terrible form,
but it doesn't matter because he has male muscles and
male height and a male frame, so he was able
(07:50):
to tie for first place. If he was competing in
the boys division. At least twenty boys from other D
three high schools in the CIF Southern Section achieved high
jumps better than Hernandez. They had the preliminaries in Yorba Linda,
(08:15):
so twenty other guys would have beaten him, and he
would have come nowhere near the finals, but he took
his male body and competed with the women and tied
for first place in the state. The boys state champion
is Joshua Harrel from Notre Dame in Sherman Oaks. He
(08:36):
jumped six' nine On. Saturday hernandez tied for the female
championship at five, seven so he would have been beaten
By Joshua harrell by one foot two. Inches that's all
(08:56):
you need to. Know total.
Speaker 2 (08:58):
Farce you're listening To John cobelt on demand FROM KFI
am six.
Speaker 1 (09:05):
Forty John coblts moistline Is. Friday you've got to be
upset about almost everything we've covered this week eight. Seven
that's why this show is here so you can get
upset about. Things eight seven Seven moist eighty six eight
seven Seven moist eighty six are usually talkback feature on
The iHeartRadio. App we were talking about that that Terrorist Mohammed,
(09:27):
solomon Remember deborah last, hour and and you KNOW i, said, maybe,
boy he was could Be father of The year because
he didn't start Throwing molotov cocktails at those Poor jewish
people until after. Her his son was already, graduating, right uh,
Huh and so he didn't commit his terrorist act until his.
Speaker 3 (09:47):
Family that was very.
Speaker 1 (09:48):
Thoughtful, YEAH i was really. Thoughtful, well it turned out
we may have been, premature because it turns out the
reason they're In america is because his daughter wanted to
relocate From kuwait to THE us and she went to
The thomas McLaren school and she wanted to be a.
(10:12):
Doctor she wanted a career in, medicine and she wanted
to study in The United. States so now that his
whole family is getting, deported he has ruined her medical
career at least in the immediate. Future so No father
of The year for that. Terrorist uh. Huh Habiba solomon the,
(10:34):
daughter she relocated From kuwait TO us to be with
her family two years, ago and so she followed the family.
Here born In, egypt but most of her life living In.
KUWAIT i don't know why the family is all over
the place like this and. Separated maybe dad's, crazy just
there's a. Possibility but she wanted a career in medicine
(10:57):
after watching the magic of a surgery that had allowed
her father to walk. Again m it's an interesting family.
Here so she came to THE us and she got
some kind of an. Award she the best and brightest
(11:18):
application that she filled. Out and but now, she her,
mother and four siblings are in ice custody because dad
hurled molotov cocktails and hurt twelve. People so he wasn't
thinking very much about what it was going to do to. Her,
uh he spent a year pot plotting the. Attack, oh
(11:42):
he did wait until his darter graduated high.
Speaker 3 (11:43):
School, yes that's WHAT i.
Speaker 1 (11:45):
See, yeah, yeah and that was that was a kind.
Gesture it was a kind, gesture but it kind of
ruins her college career. Here, yeah he wasn't thinking that. Far, no, no,
NO i, mean and you, know it probably made him
crazy because he's planning to kill all These jews for
a year and he hadn't done it, yet and it's
like he you, know he's.
Speaker 3 (12:02):
Kept waiting and.
Speaker 1 (12:03):
WAITING i, know it's, like, hey, Honey i've waited a
whole year to kill These. JEWS i can't wait another
how many years for you to go just for your medical? Career,
OKAY i MEAN i mean medical school that goes on. Forever, Right,
yeah she's thirty years old and he's still going to
be waiting with his homemade molotov cocktail. Device, yeah it was.
Time what a good family man this guy is hauls
(12:26):
everybody over to The United states just so he could
try to kill. People she liked it, here she, Said
america fundamentally changed, me and she meant that as a.
Speaker 3 (12:43):
Compliment, WELL i wonder what she thinks About. Dad, Now,
yeah that's he's fascinated.
Speaker 1 (12:50):
Me when you have a parent who ends up going
crazy and goes on a murder. Spree ALTHOUGH i gotta
believe there was crazy stuff going on in the.
Speaker 3 (12:57):
Home, WELL i would think that they're all in agreement
with how they feel About jewish.
Speaker 1 (13:02):
People, yeah, yeah, PROBABLY i don't think I'D i, Mean
i'm not saying for. SURE i, mean what DO i. Know,
yeah but you, usually well at least you're gonna say
that at the dinner. Table let's, say right when dad
goes off on one of his Anti jewish, rants it's, like, yeah, Yeah,
dad you're right.
Speaker 3 (13:19):
On although maybe she disagreed and that's why he. Decided, okay,
fine you're graduating high, school now's the. Time but because
you don't agree with, Me i'm not going to wait
until you finish medical.
Speaker 4 (13:28):
School.
Speaker 1 (13:29):
Yeah, well well they're all gone down. Though ice people
of The ice investigators went in there and literally cleaned.
House so nobody's home anymore at The solomon. Residence when
we come, Back, GOD i got so much stuff still.
Here how about. This we're going to play your report
(13:50):
and tell you About Long. Beach this is kind of
a corollary to what's going on In Los. Angeles But Sat,
County Long. BEACH i spent millions and millions of dollars
to get the vagrants off the. Streets and after all
these years and after all these, millions guess, what they
(14:10):
had more homeless than? Ever how does this?
Speaker 3 (14:13):
Happen i'm say blaming the. Wildfire, well we're going to find.
Out BUT i was confused about. That, Yeah i'm curious
what you're going to say About.
Speaker 1 (14:26):
Well you, KNOW i have a. Default they're all stealing the.
Money but, well we'll. See we got a report FROM
nbc four coming.
Speaker 2 (14:34):
Up you're listening To John cobels on demand FROM Kfi am.
Speaker 1 (14:39):
Sixty all, right we just promoted your headline, there headline
that you probably read twenty minutes. Ago now it's being
promoted for you, know future. Headlines, yeah and we have
a longer report coming FROM nbc four on this homelessness
In Long beach it went up six and a hal.
(15:00):
Percent that they have a point in time count that
they did sometime this, year and everybody was disturbed that
it's up six and a half, percent and so they
have to look for a, reason and they're they're claiming
the fire in The palisades and In Long. Beach, now
BEFORE i play you the, REPORT i just. LOOKED i
(15:23):
Have google on my. Computer here it is thirty four
point four miles To Pacific. Palisades that's WHAT i was.
Speaker 3 (15:30):
WONDERING i didn't know that we had another fire In Long.
BEACH i thought it was just in The palisades And.
Speaker 1 (15:39):
Altadena they have two hundred and nineteen more homeless people
and they're blaming it on The january. Wildfires and so
people burned out of their homes in The palisades and
In Long, beach or in The palisades and In, altadena
they ended up In Long. Beach, now, Uh altadena is
(16:01):
thirty six point six miles From Long. Beach how does
that work? Exactly how did they get The Long. Beach,
well let's see if there's any sense in this report FROM.
Nbc for Mccallo, medina.
Speaker 4 (16:15):
We're seeing an increase of six point five according to the.
City that's about two hundred and nineteen more homeless people
In Long beach this year opposed to last. Year and
this comes after a failed tiny home project that could
cost tax payers here In Long beach millions of?
Speaker 1 (16:28):
Domes Is Long beach? Failing? Stop what do you mean
a failed tiny home? Project how does a tiny home project?
Fail you build the tiny homes and then you you
escort the people into the tiny. Home how does that? Fail?
Here here's a tiny. Home go through the. Door, eh
(16:48):
there you. Go you're not homeless. Anymore place more.
Speaker 4 (16:52):
Tiny home project that could cost tax payers here In
Long beach millions of?
Speaker 1 (16:55):
Domes Is Long beach?
Speaker 4 (16:57):
Failing at this you have to look at the number
of people we brought out of. Homelessness Mayor Rex richardson
saying that number just over three thousand people now in
permanent housing over the last two years shows the city's. Progress, still,
though the numbers of those without homes continues to grow
In Launch beach thousand.
Speaker 1 (17:14):
Stop. Stop they claim they put three thousand people into,
homes then how did they end up with more homeless?
People they still have almost four thousand homeless people and
esuppoially the increases two hundred and. NINETEEN i don't. Understand
so they had about thirty eight hundred homeless, people now
they have about four. Thousand they got three, thousand they've
(17:36):
housed people keep moving. IN i guess In Long beach
this is What i'm talking. About since everybody in the
country knows they're giving out free, homes you are getting
more and more people coming on the buses and trains.
Here AND i guess people fled The Pacific palisades to
get a tiny home In Long. Beach that was the
(17:57):
that was their go.
Speaker 5 (17:58):
To.
Speaker 1 (17:58):
Huh you bring the wife and the, kids and everybody
crams into a tiny home. Together probably not even twenty
seconds into this, report are we twenty six twenty? Six all?
Speaker 4 (18:10):
Right continue still, though the numbers of those without homes
continues to grow In Long. Beach three, thousand five hundred
and ninety five during The january twenty third homeless count this.
Year that's up from three, thousand three hundred and seventy
six homeless In january of last, year which sounds first
decline in seven. Years the city says one hundred and
sixty seven people reported being somehow impacted by The january.
(18:31):
Fires according to city data that we, Requested Long beach
is allocated nearly fifty five million dollars for this fiscal
year to address the homeless.
Speaker 1 (18:39):
Problem that's totally by the. Way the print version of
this is different, numbers but, fine one hundred and sixty
seven displaced by the, wildfires and they're In Long beach
where their charter buses carrying them. In this should make any.
Sense if you live in The Palace, age why In
(19:00):
god's name would you decide to live on the street
In Long, beach that is one of the wealthiest sections
Of Los. Angeles and if you're In, altadena why would
you say take me thirty six miles SO i could
live on THIS i don't understand this. REPORT i don't
(19:21):
understand the entire issue. Here something is terribly. Wrong there's
there's bad information. Here Roll. Somemore Long beach.
Speaker 4 (19:29):
Is allocated nearly fifty five million dollars for this fiscal
year to address the.
Speaker 1 (19:33):
PROBLEM a total of one.
Speaker 4 (19:35):
Hundred and thirty five million dollars since twenty twenty for homeless,
initiatives twenty three percent of which is going to permanent.
Housing the city opting to spend nearly seventy million dollars
on interim housing like The Vagabond motel near Downtown Long
beat and forty three million dollars of city.
Speaker 1 (19:50):
Seventy million dollars to buy things like The Vagabond. Motel
how many vagamd motels did they buy for seventy million
dollars they spent one hundred fifty five million in the
last few, years one hundred and thirty five, million fifty
five million they want to spend this year and for what.
Speaker 4 (20:10):
This is?
Speaker 1 (20:11):
Crazy keep playing.
Speaker 4 (20:13):
It at least seventy million dollars on interim housing like
The Vagabond motel near Downtown lombat and forty three million
dollars of city stayed and federal funding for the. Project
home key facilities like where the mayor held a roundtable
discussion today that had twenty desks from twenty twenty one
to twenty twenty. Four the city said in earlier statements
(20:34):
the leading cons of those desks where cons was determined was.
Cancer In february of this, year the city decided to
return a five point six million dollars state grant for
tiny homes because they could not find a location to
house those, homes the city manager saying the problem was
they spent two point nine million dollars buying the homes
and the services to search for the.
Speaker 1 (20:53):
Space wait, wait, wait, wait hold, on hold. On they
bought two point nine million dollars worth of tiny homes
and then they, said well where were we gonna put?
Them by, This Rex richardson must be some kind of a.
Genius here's a mensa. Candidate you buy the homes and
then you pay for a service to find you a.
Spot Long beach is a pretty large. City that's one
(21:15):
hundred and seventy thousand. People, seriously there was nowhere in
the whole city to put the tiny homes they already.
Bought this is the story here This Macawa medina buried the.
Lead this is the.
Speaker 3 (21:28):
Story, WELL i don't understand why they.
Speaker 1 (21:30):
Even talked about the. Fire the fire makes no. Sense
and If i'm AT nbc and you, know they've never
invited me to address the news, DEPARTMENT i don't think
they Will AND i don't understand why isn't one of
the things, Explained because when you do a, report you're
not supposed to just read the press release that the
(21:54):
officials hand. You you're supposed to, ask, well how did this?
Happen why did this? Happen? Right how did we get?
Here how did we get with you spending three million
dollars to buy the tiny? Homes and nobody in The
Long beach brain trust there, said, hey we don't have
a place to put. These well let's go. Look anybody's
see an open lot. Somewhere the hell you voting for
(22:18):
In Long? Beach what is? Wrong and then so they, say,
well one hundred and sixty seven or homeless from the.
Fire did the reporter not, say, wow you know? WHAT
i just looked. Up it takes an hour and ten
minutes in traffic to get From Alta dina To Long.
Beach what homeless person is going to sit in traffic
for an? Hour it's better to stay stay in your.
(22:39):
Car how'd they get?
Speaker 3 (22:41):
There that's WHY i, asked what was there a fire
In Long beach we didn't know?
Speaker 1 (22:45):
About and that displaced?
Speaker 3 (22:47):
People because, yeah they're not coming from The palisades Or Alta.
Speaker 1 (22:50):
Dina in The City News service, story it says it
was the fire emergencies that Ravaged palisades And Alta dina
and other. Areas they say three quarters of the homeless
increase came from those who as and lots of those.
Speaker 3 (23:07):
PEOPLE i DON'T i could be, wrong but especially in The,
palisades have. Insurance they were put up in places they
weren't on the.
Speaker 1 (23:15):
Street, well we got a sales manage, Here David, Howard,
right you know his homeless. BURNED i got to see
maybe he brought his family to Live Long beach. On,
yeah they're living on the streets A Long. Beach, okay
maybe THAT'S i, mean he's been looking kind of. HAGGARD
i don't think he's. Eating, well maybe not play some more.
Speaker 4 (23:29):
So they spent two point nine million dollars buying the
homes and the services to search for the. Space that
money will now have to come from the general, fund
taxpayer money to pay. Back the states actually getting a
lot of interest from other cities that we can that
we can turn around and sell those back and recoup
some of that. Investment how they're spending we asked about
came from AN nbc four record request of the homeless
(23:49):
budget From february of twenty twenty three to twenty, four
where the city spent fifty nine million dollars two hundred
and nine thousand dollars was spent on encampment, Cleanups nearly
sixteen hundred dollars spent On domino's pizza and just under
twenty thousand dollars spent On. Greyhound are we shipping?

Speaker 4 (24:11):
Was spent on encampment? Cleanups nearly sixteen hundred dollars spent
On domino's pizza and just.
Speaker 1 (24:16):
Under sixteen hundred dollars spent on? Pizza for who the
homeless or for the city? Workers city? WORKER i was gonna,
say is that the pizza? Party is that The Friday pizza?

Speaker 4 (24:28):
Going nearly sixteen hundred dollars spent On domino's pizza and
just under twenty thousand dollars spent On. Greyhound are we

Today Kevin. Pollack you, know the comedian and the. Actor
he's very.
Speaker 5 (25:22):
Funny he's very, funny does a lot of impressions as,
well and he is a really experienced. Actor you, know
he wrote that Marvelous missus MASL i think six seasons of. That,
yes really cool with. It now he's On Tulsa. King
have you seen that at?
Speaker 1 (25:38):
All, NO i. Haven't that's The stallone. Deal OH i
saw every episode of this. Maze oh, yeah. Yeah that
was my only objection was there was like two years
in between.
Speaker 5 (25:47):
Seasons that's always reminds me of the Old remember we
used to wait for The sopranos to come out with
this seasons like as it's so crazy.
Speaker 1 (25:54):
As some of these you Think i'm going to be
dead before the next season comes.
Speaker 5 (25:57):
Out, no it's, True AND i can't remember some of
the tails from the prior. SEASON i have a you,
know bad. Memory, yeah LIKE i love when there's a
recap because you belong in the. Home this is, true
it IS i can remember less and. Less, Anyway kevin's
calling from the set Of Tulsa. King, uh and so
we'll learn.
Speaker 1 (26:18):
More.
Speaker 5 (26:19):
Uh, yeah we're going to follow up on there's a
consumer group that does a lot of work with the
utilities and trying to keep utility prices In, california which
is you, know they're already excruciatingly.
Speaker 1 (26:31):
But far the highest in the, country and they're green
lit all.
Speaker 5 (26:34):
The, Time, JOHN i, mean all of their pricing, creasures
all their requests for pricing creatures are green.
Speaker 1 (26:38):
Live you, know we played we pay double the national.
Speaker 5 (26:40):
Average it's now they would, say they would say it's
a wildfire, mitigation that that fund has to be you,
know handled in that.
Speaker 1 (26:49):
Right payers would be.
Speaker 5 (26:50):
Lying BUT i, MEAN i guess the group that pushes
back on them is this group that this Guy Lee,
troutman who's going to join us today is part. Of
so he's going to talk about the fact that they
are pushing back and that there are The assembly bills
And senate bills that are right now up for votes
and they could actually help.
Speaker 1 (27:09):
Consumers, yeah, no something is, desperate something desperately needs to happen.
Speaker 5 (27:13):
Here it's also they're they're not incentivized to to really
do anything because they just passed the cost of the
wildfires onto. Consumers so even when you get a huge
judgment against.
Speaker 1 (27:26):
Well they start the fires, right then they charge us
to clean up the. Damage it's like So Cal edison
OR pg AND. E they started most of the really big.
Speaker 5 (27:35):
Fires, exactly so they're found liable and then we end
up having to pay for their. Liability it's, insane so
we'll do something about. It, also dating apps are in the,
news but in a grim. Way crime is involved true
crime and dating apps today as. Well So, conway you,
know lost his, voice so that's why you got me to. Know,

demand on The iHeartRadio, app
I am six forty. You're listening to the John Cobel
podcast on the iHeart Radio app. Where are you. There's
an iHeart Radio app somewhere somewhere, and it's all over
the world. We're in dozens and dozens of countries. We
have listeners there and in all fifty states. So there's
no excuse you if you can't be here listening to
(00:23):
KFI right now. You no matter where you are, you
can get the iHeart Radio app on your device. We're
on from one to four and then after four o'clock
listen to the podcast, John Cobolt's show on demand on
that iHeart app. All right, we've been covering for the
last week or so the absurdity in clubs California where
(00:45):
they had the state high school track and field championships.
This is the California Interscholastic Federation the ci app. If
you have kids who played high school sports, you're probably
familiar with that acronym, the CIF, and you know they
hold playoffs in all sports and Saturday was the state
(01:08):
finals featuring a boy, Aby Hernandez, who claimed to be
of a girl. Now, as far as I know, since he's
under age, he hasn't gone through any physical surgery, any transformation.
He has gone through male puberty. And it's caused a
(01:29):
big ruckus because obviously a guy in decent shape would
be able to beat a lot of girls, if not all,
the girls, in the high jump, the triple jump, and
the long jump. And Donald Trump got wint to this
and he posted something in social media saying, if Gavin
Newsom follows through, and I'm paraphrasing here, then we're going
(01:52):
to pull funding to California schools. Not specific what that is.
Understand under Title which was passed over fifty years ago
in nineteen seventy two, Title nine says that girls and
boys have to be treated equally scholastically in sports. That's
(02:12):
what it says. So what Newsom is doing and all
the other progressive weirdos in Sacramento is they're violating the
civil rights of these young girls that they have to
compete against somebody who's not a girl. I don't care
how you slice it, and I'll explain why because John
Girardi wrote a great piece in the National Review. And
(02:35):
in case you have any fog or confusion in your
brain as to what a girl is and what a
boy is and why a boy competing with girls? It's
deeply unfair. And those are Gavin Newsom's words, unfair. In
Trump's words, I noticed that Trump used unfair and Newsom
had an intensifier deeply unfair. So he was even more
(03:00):
more offended by this concept than Trump was, at least
in their writing. And Title nine is the law of
the land. And yeah, if you don't adhere to Title
nine and you're supposed to be protecting girls, or you
could lose your your funding. All right, it's basic American
civil rights. There is no question about this, all right.
(03:21):
Just because you shout louder, just because you get emotional,
just because you're willing to call everybody else some weird
name that no one even heard of ten years ago,
doesn't mean you're right. It still means you're wrong. So
Newsom got stuck. He'd already pissed off his progressive fanatics,
(03:43):
and now he's pissing Trump off and those followers. And
really there's no home for him on this one, because
you got to admit he's either a boy or a girl,
and he isn't a girl, which means he's a boy.
And so this whole thing is a is a charade.
So the CIF changed its policies a couple of times
(04:04):
and they came up with this weird compromise. He could
compete in girls' events, but any girl who would miss
out on qualifying because a transgender athlete was in the
way would qualify anyway into the next round, and the
medals and final rankings for the girls would be awarded
as if the transgender athlete was not competing. I follow
(04:26):
that transgender athlete would still get the medals, would still
get the championship, but the second place finisher would end
up first, and then the third place would be second,
so you'd end up with two champions. Now here's what's ridiculous.
(04:47):
At the end of the triple jump competition, there was
two first place finishers. Ab Hernandez from Harupa Valley, the transgender.
She jumped forty two feet two and three quarter inches.
Kira gent Hatcher from Saint Mary's College in Alberdy, California.
She jumped forty feet five inches. So the winner jumped
(05:09):
over forty two feet and the other winner jumped forty feet.
That's the advantage that Aby Hernandez had being a boy.
She could jump two feet better than the best girl.
Then in third place was Sancha Ali from Clayton Valley
(05:33):
in Concord. She was in third place at thirty nine
feet ten inches, but was awarded second place, so he competed,
but Hernandez was not considered the winner, except he was
considered the winner. You understand the problem here. It's just
complete nonsense. Now, as another issue accommodations for transgenders in
(06:00):
girl sports, males are permitted into women's bathrooms. Who wants that?
Do you want to? You want a guy in in
your daughter's bathroom if she's in a sport showers and
locker rooms? How about that? How about standing with a
teenage guy who claims he's a girl and he's totally
(06:20):
exposed in your daughter's bathroom. By the way, this law
passed it in twenty thirteen, you probably didn't notice fourteen
year old freshman girls, according to John Girardi from the
National Review, who must endure the presence, in some cases
an eighteen year old male, whether they have their intact
reproductive organs or not. And when Trump issued a directive
(06:44):
on this, he specifically said males can't be in female
locker rooms. That violates title nine. Now on Saturday, we're
the finals and Aby Hernandez, a transgender, easily won the
triple jump by twenty two and a half inches place
in the long jump. Here's the thing, and John Girardi
(07:04):
analyzed Ab Hernanze's form. He's Girardi said that Hernandez, the transgender,
his form is not particularly good. He fails to adequately pump, gather,
and utilize his arms to achieve the optimal height. The
female jumpers pump their arms more vigorously to get the
(07:26):
momentum for the high jump. But because Hernandez has a
male frame, male height, and male muscle, these advantages compensate
for the inadequacies of his form. So he's got terrible form,
but it doesn't matter because he has male muscles and
male height and a male frame, so he was able
(07:50):
to tie for first place. If he was competing in
the boys division. At least twenty boys from other D
three high schools in the CIF Southern Section achieved high
jumps better than Hernandez. They had the preliminaries in Yorba Linda,
(08:15):
so twenty other guys would have beaten him, and he
would have come nowhere near the finals, but he took
his male body and competed with the women and tied
for first place in the state. The boys state champion
is Joshua Harrel from Notre Dame in Sherman Oaks. He
(08:36):
jumped six' nine On. Saturday hernandez tied for the female
championship at five, seven so he would have been beaten
By Joshua harrell by one foot two. Inches that's all
(08:56):
you need to. Know total.
Speaker 2 (08:58):
Farce you're listening To John cobelt on demand FROM KFI
am six.
Speaker 1 (09:05):
Forty John coblts moistline Is. Friday you've got to be
upset about almost everything we've covered this week eight. Seven
that's why this show is here so you can get
upset about. Things eight seven Seven moist eighty six eight
seven Seven moist eighty six are usually talkback feature on
The iHeartRadio. App we were talking about that that Terrorist Mohammed,
(09:27):
solomon Remember deborah last, hour and and you KNOW i, said, maybe,
boy he was could Be father of The year because
he didn't start Throwing molotov cocktails at those Poor jewish
people until after. Her his son was already, graduating, right uh,
Huh and so he didn't commit his terrorist act until his.
Speaker 3 (09:47):
Family that was very.
Speaker 1 (09:48):
Thoughtful, YEAH i was really. Thoughtful, well it turned out
we may have been, premature because it turns out the
reason they're In america is because his daughter wanted to
relocate From kuwait to THE us and she went to
The thomas McLaren school and she wanted to be a.
(10:12):
Doctor she wanted a career in, medicine and she wanted
to study in The United. States so now that his
whole family is getting, deported he has ruined her medical
career at least in the immediate. Future so No father
of The year for that. Terrorist uh. Huh Habiba solomon the,
(10:34):
daughter she relocated From kuwait TO us to be with
her family two years, ago and so she followed the family.
Here born In, egypt but most of her life living In.
KUWAIT i don't know why the family is all over
the place like this and. Separated maybe dad's, crazy just
there's a. Possibility but she wanted a career in medicine
(10:57):
after watching the magic of a surgery that had allowed
her father to walk. Again m it's an interesting family.
Here so she came to THE us and she got
some kind of an. Award she the best and brightest
(11:18):
application that she filled. Out and but now, she her,
mother and four siblings are in ice custody because dad
hurled molotov cocktails and hurt twelve. People so he wasn't
thinking very much about what it was going to do to. Her,
uh he spent a year pot plotting the. Attack, oh
(11:42):
he did wait until his darter graduated high.
Speaker 3 (11:43):
School, yes that's WHAT i.
Speaker 1 (11:45):
See, yeah, yeah and that was that was a kind.
Gesture it was a kind, gesture but it kind of
ruins her college career. Here, yeah he wasn't thinking that. Far, no, no,
NO i, mean and you, know it probably made him
crazy because he's planning to kill all These jews for
a year and he hadn't done it, yet and it's
like he you, know he's.
Speaker 3 (12:02):
Kept waiting and.
Speaker 1 (12:03):
WAITING i, know it's, like, hey, Honey i've waited a
whole year to kill These. JEWS i can't wait another
how many years for you to go just for your medical? Career,
OKAY i MEAN i mean medical school that goes on. Forever, Right,
yeah she's thirty years old and he's still going to
be waiting with his homemade molotov cocktail. Device, yeah it was.
Time what a good family man this guy is hauls
(12:26):
everybody over to The United states just so he could
try to kill. People she liked it, here she, Said
america fundamentally changed, me and she meant that as a.
Speaker 3 (12:43):
Compliment, WELL i wonder what she thinks About. Dad, Now,
yeah that's he's fascinated.
Speaker 1 (12:50):
Me when you have a parent who ends up going
crazy and goes on a murder. Spree ALTHOUGH i gotta
believe there was crazy stuff going on in the.
Speaker 3 (12:57):
Home, WELL i would think that they're all in agreement
with how they feel About jewish.
Speaker 1 (13:02):
People, yeah, yeah, PROBABLY i don't think I'D i, Mean
i'm not saying for. SURE i, mean what DO i. Know,
yeah but you, usually well at least you're gonna say
that at the dinner. Table let's, say right when dad
goes off on one of his Anti jewish, rants it's, like, yeah, Yeah,
dad you're right.
Speaker 3 (13:19):
On although maybe she disagreed and that's why he. Decided, okay,
fine you're graduating high, school now's the. Time but because
you don't agree with, Me i'm not going to wait
until you finish medical.
Speaker 4 (13:28):
School.
Speaker 1 (13:29):
Yeah, well well they're all gone down. Though ice people
of The ice investigators went in there and literally cleaned.
House so nobody's home anymore at The solomon. Residence when
we come, Back, GOD i got so much stuff still.
Here how about. This we're going to play your report
(13:50):
and tell you About Long. Beach this is kind of
a corollary to what's going on In Los. Angeles But Sat,
County Long. BEACH i spent millions and millions of dollars
to get the vagrants off the. Streets and after all
these years and after all these, millions guess, what they
(14:10):
had more homeless than? Ever how does this?
Speaker 3 (14:13):
Happen i'm say blaming the. Wildfire, well we're going to find.
Out BUT i was confused about. That, Yeah i'm curious
what you're going to say About.
Speaker 1 (14:26):
Well you, KNOW i have a. Default they're all stealing the.
Money but, well we'll. See we got a report FROM
nbc four coming.
Speaker 2 (14:34):
Up you're listening To John cobels on demand FROM Kfi am.
Speaker 1 (14:39):
Sixty all, right we just promoted your headline, there headline
that you probably read twenty minutes. Ago now it's being
promoted for you, know future. Headlines, yeah and we have
a longer report coming FROM nbc four on this homelessness
In Long beach it went up six and a hal.
(15:00):
Percent that they have a point in time count that
they did sometime this, year and everybody was disturbed that
it's up six and a half, percent and so they
have to look for a, reason and they're they're claiming
the fire in The palisades and In Long. Beach, now
BEFORE i play you the, REPORT i just. LOOKED i
(15:23):
Have google on my. Computer here it is thirty four
point four miles To Pacific. Palisades that's WHAT i was.
Speaker 3 (15:30):
WONDERING i didn't know that we had another fire In Long.
BEACH i thought it was just in The palisades And.
Speaker 1 (15:39):
Altadena they have two hundred and nineteen more homeless people
and they're blaming it on The january. Wildfires and so
people burned out of their homes in The palisades and
In Long, beach or in The palisades and In, altadena
they ended up In Long. Beach, now, Uh altadena is
(16:01):
thirty six point six miles From Long. Beach how does
that work? Exactly how did they get The Long. Beach,
well let's see if there's any sense in this report FROM.
Nbc for Mccallo, medina.
Speaker 4 (16:15):
We're seeing an increase of six point five according to the.
City that's about two hundred and nineteen more homeless people
In Long beach this year opposed to last. Year and
this comes after a failed tiny home project that could
cost tax payers here In Long beach millions of?
Speaker 1 (16:28):
Domes Is Long beach? Failing? Stop what do you mean
a failed tiny home? Project how does a tiny home project?
Fail you build the tiny homes and then you you
escort the people into the tiny. Home how does that? Fail?
Here here's a tiny. Home go through the. Door, eh
(16:48):
there you. Go you're not homeless. Anymore place more.
Speaker 4 (16:52):
Tiny home project that could cost tax payers here In
Long beach millions of?
Speaker 1 (16:55):
Domes Is Long beach?
Speaker 4 (16:57):
Failing at this you have to look at the number
of people we brought out of. Homelessness Mayor Rex richardson
saying that number just over three thousand people now in
permanent housing over the last two years shows the city's. Progress, still,
though the numbers of those without homes continues to grow
In Launch beach thousand.
Speaker 1 (17:14):
Stop. Stop they claim they put three thousand people into,
homes then how did they end up with more homeless?
People they still have almost four thousand homeless people and
esuppoially the increases two hundred and. NINETEEN i don't. Understand
so they had about thirty eight hundred homeless, people now
they have about four. Thousand they got three, thousand they've
(17:36):
housed people keep moving. IN i guess In Long beach
this is What i'm talking. About since everybody in the
country knows they're giving out free, homes you are getting
more and more people coming on the buses and trains.
Here AND i guess people fled The Pacific palisades to
get a tiny home In Long. Beach that was the
(17:57):
that was their go.
Speaker 5 (17:58):
To.
Speaker 1 (17:58):
Huh you bring the wife and the, kids and everybody
crams into a tiny home. Together probably not even twenty
seconds into this, report are we twenty six twenty? Six all?
Speaker 4 (18:10):
Right continue still, though the numbers of those without homes
continues to grow In Long. Beach three, thousand five hundred
and ninety five during The january twenty third homeless count this.
Year that's up from three, thousand three hundred and seventy
six homeless In january of last, year which sounds first
decline in seven. Years the city says one hundred and
sixty seven people reported being somehow impacted by The january.
(18:31):
Fires according to city data that we, Requested Long beach
is allocated nearly fifty five million dollars for this fiscal
year to address the homeless.
Speaker 1 (18:39):
Problem that's totally by the. Way the print version of
this is different, numbers but, fine one hundred and sixty
seven displaced by the, wildfires and they're In Long beach
where their charter buses carrying them. In this should make any.
Sense if you live in The Palace, age why In
(19:00):
god's name would you decide to live on the street
In Long, beach that is one of the wealthiest sections
Of Los. Angeles and if you're In, altadena why would
you say take me thirty six miles SO i could
live on THIS i don't understand this. REPORT i don't
(19:21):
understand the entire issue. Here something is terribly. Wrong there's
there's bad information. Here Roll. Somemore Long beach.
Speaker 4 (19:29):
Is allocated nearly fifty five million dollars for this fiscal
year to address the.
Speaker 1 (19:33):
PROBLEM a total of one.
Speaker 4 (19:35):
Hundred and thirty five million dollars since twenty twenty for homeless,
initiatives twenty three percent of which is going to permanent.
Housing the city opting to spend nearly seventy million dollars
on interim housing like The Vagabond motel near Downtown Long
beat and forty three million dollars of city.
Speaker 1 (19:50):
Seventy million dollars to buy things like The Vagabond. Motel
how many vagamd motels did they buy for seventy million
dollars they spent one hundred fifty five million in the
last few, years one hundred and thirty five, million fifty
five million they want to spend this year and for what.
Speaker 4 (20:10):
This is?
Speaker 1 (20:11):
Crazy keep playing.
Speaker 4 (20:13):
It at least seventy million dollars on interim housing like
The Vagabond motel near Downtown lombat and forty three million
dollars of city stayed and federal funding for the. Project
home key facilities like where the mayor held a roundtable
discussion today that had twenty desks from twenty twenty one
to twenty twenty. Four the city said in earlier statements
(20:34):
the leading cons of those desks where cons was determined was.
Cancer In february of this, year the city decided to
return a five point six million dollars state grant for
tiny homes because they could not find a location to
house those, homes the city manager saying the problem was
they spent two point nine million dollars buying the homes
and the services to search for the.
Speaker 1 (20:53):
Space wait, wait, wait, wait hold, on hold. On they
bought two point nine million dollars worth of tiny homes
and then they, said well where were we gonna put?
Them by, This Rex richardson must be some kind of a.
Genius here's a mensa. Candidate you buy the homes and
then you pay for a service to find you a.
Spot Long beach is a pretty large. City that's one
(21:15):
hundred and seventy thousand. People, seriously there was nowhere in
the whole city to put the tiny homes they already.
Bought this is the story here This Macawa medina buried the.
Lead this is the.
Speaker 3 (21:28):
Story, WELL i don't understand why they.
Speaker 1 (21:30):
Even talked about the. Fire the fire makes no. Sense
and If i'm AT nbc and you, know they've never
invited me to address the news, DEPARTMENT i don't think
they Will AND i don't understand why isn't one of
the things, Explained because when you do a, report you're
not supposed to just read the press release that the
(21:54):
officials hand. You you're supposed to, ask, well how did this?
Happen why did this? Happen? Right how did we get?
Here how did we get with you spending three million
dollars to buy the tiny? Homes and nobody in The
Long beach brain trust there, said, hey we don't have
a place to put. These well let's go. Look anybody's
see an open lot. Somewhere the hell you voting for
(22:18):
In Long? Beach what is? Wrong and then so they, say,
well one hundred and sixty seven or homeless from the.
Fire did the reporter not, say, wow you know? WHAT
i just looked. Up it takes an hour and ten
minutes in traffic to get From Alta dina To Long.
Beach what homeless person is going to sit in traffic
for an? Hour it's better to stay stay in your.
(22:39):
Car how'd they get?
Speaker 3 (22:41):
There that's WHY i, asked what was there a fire
In Long beach we didn't know?
Speaker 1 (22:45):
About and that displaced?
Speaker 3 (22:47):
People because, yeah they're not coming from The palisades Or Alta.
Speaker 1 (22:50):
Dina in The City News service, story it says it
was the fire emergencies that Ravaged palisades And Alta dina
and other. Areas they say three quarters of the homeless
increase came from those who as and lots of those.
Speaker 3 (23:07):
PEOPLE i DON'T i could be, wrong but especially in The,
palisades have. Insurance they were put up in places they
weren't on the.
Speaker 1 (23:15):
Street, well we got a sales manage, Here David, Howard,
right you know his homeless. BURNED i got to see
maybe he brought his family to Live Long beach. On,
yeah they're living on the streets A Long. Beach, okay
maybe THAT'S i, mean he's been looking kind of. HAGGARD
i don't think he's. Eating, well maybe not play some more.
Speaker 4 (23:29):
So they spent two point nine million dollars buying the
homes and the services to search for the. Space that
money will now have to come from the general, fund
taxpayer money to pay. Back the states actually getting a
lot of interest from other cities that we can that
we can turn around and sell those back and recoup
some of that. Investment how they're spending we asked about
came from AN nbc four record request of the homeless
(23:49):
budget From february of twenty twenty three to twenty, four
where the city spent fifty nine million dollars two hundred
and nine thousand dollars was spent on encampment, Cleanups nearly
sixteen hundred dollars spent On domino's pizza and just under
twenty thousand dollars spent On. Greyhound are we shipping?
Speaker 5 (24:05):
Homeless?

Wait, wait wait? Stop how much were Spent domino's? Pizzas

Speaker 4 (24:11):
Was spent on encampment? Cleanups nearly sixteen hundred dollars spent
On domino's pizza and just.
Speaker 1 (24:16):
Under sixteen hundred dollars spent on? Pizza for who the
homeless or for the city? Workers city? WORKER i was gonna,
say is that the pizza? Party is that The Friday pizza?
PARTY a lot of? Pizza all? Right keep?
Speaker 4 (24:28):
Going nearly sixteen hundred dollars spent On domino's pizza and
just under twenty thousand dollars spent On. Greyhound are we
shipping homeless people out Of Warm?
Speaker 1 (24:37):
Beach? Yes we do have quite a few people that

YOU i appreciate the evaluation of The, yeah the. RECORDING
i just think. Flightens we have a star joining us,
Today Kevin. Pollack you, know the comedian and the. Actor
he's very.
Speaker 5 (25:22):
Funny he's very, funny does a lot of impressions as,
well and he is a really experienced. Actor you, know
he wrote that Marvelous missus MASL i think six seasons of. That,
yes really cool with. It now he's On Tulsa. King
have you seen that at?
Speaker 1 (25:38):
All, NO i. Haven't that's The stallone. Deal OH i
saw every episode of this. Maze oh, yeah. Yeah that
was my only objection was there was like two years
in between.
Speaker 5 (25:47):
Seasons that's always reminds me of the Old remember we
used to wait for The sopranos to come out with
this seasons like as it's so crazy.
Speaker 1 (25:54):
As some of these you Think i'm going to be
dead before the next season comes.
Speaker 5 (25:57):
Out, no it's, True AND i can't remember some of
the tails from the prior. SEASON i have a you,
know bad. Memory, yeah LIKE i love when there's a
recap because you belong in the. Home this is, true
it IS i can remember less and. Less, Anyway kevin's
calling from the set Of Tulsa. King, uh and so
we'll learn.
Speaker 1 (26:18):
More.
Speaker 5 (26:19):
Uh, yeah we're going to follow up on there's a
consumer group that does a lot of work with the
utilities and trying to keep utility prices In, california which
is you, know they're already excruciatingly.
Speaker 1 (26:31):
But far the highest in the, country and they're green
lit all.
Speaker 5 (26:34):
The, Time, JOHN i, mean all of their pricing, creasures
all their requests for pricing creatures are green.
Speaker 1 (26:38):
Live you, know we played we pay double the national.
Speaker 5 (26:40):
Average it's now they would, say they would say it's
a wildfire, mitigation that that fund has to be you,
know handled in that.
Speaker 1 (26:49):
Right payers would be.
Speaker 5 (26:50):
Lying BUT i, MEAN i guess the group that pushes
back on them is this group that this Guy Lee,
troutman who's going to join us today is part. Of
so he's going to talk about the fact that they
are pushing back and that there are The assembly bills
And senate bills that are right now up for votes
and they could actually help.
Speaker 1 (27:09):
Consumers, yeah, no something is, desperate something desperately needs to happen.
Speaker 5 (27:13):
Here it's also they're they're not incentivized to to really
do anything because they just passed the cost of the
wildfires onto. Consumers so even when you get a huge
judgment against.
Speaker 1 (27:26):
Well they start the fires, right then they charge us
to clean up the. Damage it's like So Cal edison
OR pg AND. E they started most of the really big.
Speaker 5 (27:35):
Fires, exactly so they're found liable and then we end
up having to pay for their. Liability it's, insane so
we'll do something about. It, also dating apps are in the,
news but in a grim. Way crime is involved true
crime and dating apps today as. Well So, conway you,
know lost his, voice so that's why you got me to. Know,
