You're listening to the John Cobel podcast on the iHeartRadio
app on every day on until four o'clock, and after
four o'clock you can hear the show online on the
iHeartRadio app. It's John Cobel Show on Demand. It's the
podcast version. It's the same as what we're doing here.
At three point thirty after Deborah's news, we are going
(00:22):
to have the state Minority Leader Brian Jones. He released well,
he had a press release come out today angry with
Newsom staff who are attacking the USC Professor Michael McShee
because miche is telling the truth that Newsom's policies which
(00:43):
have led to two refineries shutting down and to the
California Air Resources Board raising gas later this year by
sixty five cents a gallon, this is going to lead
to eight dollars and forty three cents per gallon gas
by next year, and so your gas prices are going
to go up seventy five percent. And missche has been
(01:07):
making the rounds explaining his research. He's done a lot
of research recently, all of it quite unflattering to Newsom,
because what Newsom is doing is punishing everybody to try
to force us to go to electric cars, and you
know the reasons that's not working. So now his staff
is smearing Michael MChE and Brian Jones Sentminori leader wants
(01:31):
to wants to Well, he's got a lot to say
about that. We'll get to that in a few minutes.
Time to once again if you're just joining us. Deborah Mark,
our award winning news anchor, won another one yesterday or
this morning.
Speaker 2 (01:47):
The Edward R.
Speaker 3 (01:48):
Murrow Award for her series called Suicide, Stigma and Shame.
You may remember it from last year. It's a regional
award against I guess stations and new casters from all
over California and beyond and Melifornia, Nevada, and it's entered
in a national competition.
Speaker 2 (02:06):
Now.
Speaker 4 (02:07):
Yeah, so I'll find out in the summer if if
I win it nationally.
Speaker 3 (02:14):
If I am six forty dot com slash suicide And
you can get links to both parts of that series
and also a link to Deborah and I talking about
it when it was originally aired last September. Right, Yes,
so congratulations to her, than you please don't text her
while she's driving home.
Speaker 5 (02:34):
Yeah, she got no I'm going to put my phone.
Speaker 2 (02:35):
Away when I'm going she got pulled over by the
cops today.
Speaker 4 (02:37):
I was so excited looking at all the likes and
comments and texts that I really was distracted.
Speaker 2 (02:44):
That's right.
Speaker 3 (02:44):
So you know, you could cause a major accident on
the one on one if you text her this afternoon.
We've been we've been doing a lot today. I for
some reason, I don't know why things go in waves.
There's a herd mentality. But there's been a lot of
stories on Gavin Newsom, kind of retrospective stories. Hey, he
(03:07):
really is running for president. Hey, he's really like trying
to change his views publicly. Like yesterday he came out
and he was very tough on cities and counties, demanding
that they pass an ordinance to ban homeless encampments and
to clear out those encampments and nobody gets more than
three days and you can't be camped out on a
(03:28):
street or sidewalk anymore. And that's kind of triggered some
of the news media woke a few of them up
to say, hey, let's look at what he's actually done.
And Michael Schellenberger at Public Dot News had a great
article that we went through earlier in the show to
listen to the one o'clock hour on the podcast about
all the bad policies that Newsome instituted, enabled, amplified, really
(03:57):
destructive policies that led to at this point, almost two
hundred thousand people living on the street and thousands are
dying every year. And it is a good game to play.
It's like, how many people has Gavin Newsom killed? Between
all the homeless people? I mean, I mean that a
lot of the homeless came from the prisons originally going
(04:17):
back ten years with Jerry Brown. Jerry Brown, by the way,
was a destructive governor. A gag every time I read
a story about Jerry Brown to this day. The news
media have their collective heads so far up his rear end,
and he unleashed. The homelessness to a large extent, came
from the prisoners that Jerry Brown dumped. The journalists suck
(04:44):
in this state. They just flat out suck. They're awful.
They're so full of propaganda, soul full of lies. So
part is in so progressive. Well, now we've got the
California Globe californiaglobe dot com a story on how many
California cities are running huge budget deficits, and to open
(05:05):
the story, they go through Gavin Newsom's state budget. You know,
Newsom keeps changing the claims on the budget deficit. It's
probably seventy billion dollars. The Legislative Analyst Office last year
said seventy billion. There's a revised budget and they say,
(05:25):
all right, well maybe it's fifty five billion. Newsom's only
admitting to twenty seven billion. Whatever it is, it has
to be balanced, that's the law. And they have way overshot.
Politico thought it was ten billion, which coincidentally matches almost
exactly matches how much money we have spent on illegal
(05:50):
alien healthcare. Yes, we give medical to illegal aliens and
that's about twelve billion dollars. So yeah, it's really aggravating.
News admits like a ten billion dollar budget deficit, but
it's twelve billion dollars for legal aliens. So stop doing that.
No other state does that. It's like Karen Bass. You know,
(06:14):
she's cutting police and fire because she's got a billion
dollar deficit. Well, that's the homeless budget right there. Don't
spend the billion dollars on the homeless, then you wouldn't
have the problem. But what do I keep telling you
all the progressives and the media supports this and amplifies
(06:36):
it and does propaganda for it. What are the three
categories they keep coming up over and over again every day.
It's illegal aliens, it's homeless people, and it's criminals. So
what did I just tell you? New some letout criminals
and they became a lot of the homeless and they
started committing more crimes.
Speaker 2 (06:55):
We covered that last hour.
Speaker 3 (06:57):
We've got illegal aliens now getting healthcare, big budget deficit,
we got homeless people and all the nonprofits that are
stealing that money. We got a big budget deficit in LA.
Those are the three things that are costing us money
and frightening us. Makes makes the whole place unsafe and scary.
(07:19):
Legal aliens, homeless people and criminals the only three constituencies
for all the woke progressives. One other thing, the Globe
points out, and this is never mentioned enough. When Jerry
Brown was elected again in twenty eleven, the state budget
was ninety eight billion dollars ninety eight billion dollars fourteen
(07:41):
years ago. It blew up to three hundred and thirty billion,
three hundred and thirty ninety eight So whatever it was
fourteen years ago, multiply that by three and then add some.
Speaker 2 (08:04):
It more than tripled. And what do we get for this?
Speaker 3 (08:08):
We got all the vagrants in the streets, We got
all the crime. We have all this money going to
illegal aliens. How do you go from ninety eight billion
to three hundred and thirty billion. And in California globe
goes through City of La there are a bunch of
deficits a billion plus San Diego three hundred million, Sacramento
(08:32):
sixty six million, San Francisco eight hundred and seventy six million,
San Jose sixty million, Fresno twenty million, Oakland two hundred
and sixty eight million, Berkeley twenty eight million.
Speaker 2 (08:47):
Why because we spend money on all the.
Speaker 3 (08:54):
All the losers in life who don't deserve this money,
don't appreciate this money, and don't take any control over
their lives so they could work themselves and earn their
own money. And they're dying in the streets anyway, they're
whacked out on drugs, anyway, they're here illegally in a
lot of cases, or are they continue committing crimes. We
(09:17):
just told you last hour that Newsom dumped out almost
fifteen thousand prisoners during COVID, and almost five thousand committed
crimes that were sent back to prison, including thirty guys
who killed people. Thirty of them they weren't in for
murder until Newsom dumped them out of prison, then they
committed the thirty murders. Could you be more destructive? Is
(09:42):
it possible to be more destructive? And now he's running
around trying to remake himself, reposition himself, getting tough on
the homeless people.
Speaker 2 (09:57):
He's so full of it.
Speaker 6 (10:00):
Listening to John Cobelt on demand from KFI AM six forty.
Speaker 3 (10:06):
After Depbor's news at three point thirty, we're going to
have Brian Jones on the Senate Minority Leader Republican because
have you heard what Kevin Newsom is doing? That that
little weasel. He's upset that the USC professor Michael mcshe
is telling the truth that Newsom's policies are going to
lead to eight dollars and forty three cent a gallon
(10:27):
gas by the end of next year. Mischee has released
his analysis. He's been on our show several times now,
and he's going on television interviews and it's in the
papers and nobody can refute it. It makes perfect sense
because there's two refineries closing, there's a sixty five cent
(10:48):
to gallon price increase coming because of carb demanding a
new fuel formulation. There are taxes that are being increased,
and it's all going to lead to eight dollars and
forty three sense a gallon gas. And Newsome deputized one
of his weasels to send out a press release or
put put out on Twitter some nonsense about Mische being
(11:13):
some sort of tool of Saudi Arabia because years ago
Miche did some unrelated work for Saudi Arabia and it
was it was like a non existed connection to the
California oil and gas situation. It was really cheap. It
was a smear, it was it was wrong. And this
(11:35):
is what Newsom does because you know, he's he's got
to run for president when they're selling gas for two
dollars and sixty cents in some states and we're gonna
be at eight forty three. We'll get to that coming
up after three point thirty with Brian Jones, the Senate
Minority Leader. This story came out a few days ago,
(11:58):
and I can't get this out of my head. Did
you see the Mark Zuckerberg appearance. He had an on
stage interview at some conference, and he says, eventually, the
average person is going to have more AI friends than
(12:21):
real friends, and that's the way the world is going.
Speaker 5 (12:24):
How sad.
Speaker 2 (12:25):
And he's going to provide the AI friends.
Speaker 5 (12:28):
Oh, he's going to choose the AI friends.
Speaker 3 (12:30):
Yeah, he's well, yeah, he's going to make money off
of this. His technology is going to create AI friends.
And then you know what, he is such a creepy weirdo.
Speaker 4 (12:40):
But how is he going to tailor those AI type
of friends to everybody?
Speaker 3 (12:45):
It's kind of like the algorithms that feed you your
Netflix shows or YouTube's choices. I think people are going
to want a system that knows them well and that
kind of understands them the way that their algorithm do
their feeds. The average person wants to have more friends
(13:06):
and connections with other people than they currently do.
Speaker 4 (13:09):
Yeah, but you want real friends, not fake AI friends.
Speaker 3 (13:12):
He says, AI friends are the solution. The average American
I think has fewer than three friends, three people that
consider friends.
Speaker 2 (13:22):
Is that true?
Speaker 3 (13:24):
It's not like I'm mister popularity, but I got way
more than three friends and I know you do.
Speaker 5 (13:28):
Yeah, I don't know. I mean, that's sad if that's true.
Speaker 3 (13:32):
The average person wants fifteen friends, according to Zuckerberg. You know,
Zuckerberg going to be locked up in a mental institution.
He's already done enough damage to the world. For people
who don't have a person who's a therapist, I think
everyone will have an AI and then the AI person
(13:53):
could help you with your problems.
Speaker 2 (13:59):
You remember a few years ago an augmented reality.
Speaker 3 (14:01):
Yes, you were supposed to put on like a twelve
thousand pounds headset, yeah, and live in this alternate cartoon
world with other people, and everyone was an avatar.
Speaker 4 (14:10):
Look, I get recluses, people that are lonely would be
into that, but the normal person.
Speaker 3 (14:18):
No, he's throwing a lot of money at chatbots. There
are a lot of people who are who think they're
talking to people and they're not. They're talking to chatbots.
Speaker 5 (14:29):
Yes, that is true online for sure.
Speaker 3 (14:32):
They have unleashed chat bots in a lot of the
social media and they start arguments with humans, and the
humans don't know the difference and spend their day getting angry.
They start political fights.
Speaker 4 (14:46):
For example, all you have to say is are you real?
Or are you a bot? That's what I would write,
Are you real or are you a bot?
Speaker 2 (14:53):
Well, the bot's not legally required to tell you the truth.
Speaker 5 (14:56):
I think it would.
Speaker 2 (14:57):
No, the bots lie.
Speaker 5 (14:58):
It's gonna say unreal. You should try that.
Speaker 3 (15:00):
God, are you real? And then he says, yes.
Speaker 5 (15:08):
No, you're not a photo and not dude.
Speaker 7 (15:12):
You guys clearly haven't seen these AI bots on social media.
Speaker 2 (15:15):
Yet, have you?
Speaker 7 (15:16):
Yes?
Speaker 4 (15:17):
I mean I see I see a lot of when
I'm dealing with stores and customers service.
Speaker 7 (15:24):
No, I'm saying, I'm saying on social media, I'll get
like in my suggested friends of like people you may know, Yeah,
it'll be these AI chatbots that Zuckerberg is trying to Well.
Speaker 2 (15:33):
Yeah, if you look, you can kind of tell when
they're fake. Well. It also it has a designation too
that it says it's AI. Oh so he's feeding real
AI people into your feed.
Speaker 7 (15:44):
Yes, as like a suggested like friend like, hey, you
should follow this part seriously.
Speaker 3 (15:48):
Yes, encouraging me to cook on next time I start
talking to it. Next time I see it all screenshot
it and sent which platform is he doing this? I've
seen it on Instagram, which Meta owns, right.
Speaker 4 (16:04):
I'm looking at Instagram right now just to see if
anybody is trying to.
Speaker 2 (16:08):
Those are some of the listeners that complain to you.
Speaker 3 (16:10):
I think, yes, they're not real exactly, and then you
get mad and right back to them.
Speaker 5 (16:15):
Oh, I don't do that anymore.
Speaker 3 (16:16):
But people, they don't exist, they don't care what you think.
All right, we come back. We're going to have Brian Jones,
the Senate Minority Leader of the Republican He's coming on
because he's pretty appalled at what Newsom is doing trying
to smear the USC professor Michael Masche, because Mache is
pointing out just how high the the gas prices are
(16:37):
going to be.
Speaker 2 (16:38):
Yeah, you run on that, Newsom.
Speaker 3 (16:40):
That and all the criminals you let out at a prison,
and all the illegal aliens that are getting billions of
dollars of our money, and what else. Oh yeah, yeah,
the two hundred thousand homeless that are in the streets
over your policies, you go run on that. They're gonna
love you, Nebraska.
Speaker 6 (16:58):
You're listening to John Cobelt on demand from KFI AM
six forty.
Speaker 3 (17:03):
Brian Jones is coming on here. Just a quick rundown
of what we've been talking about for weeks. USC Professor
Michael Msche has put out a couple of reports. First
one said, over the last fifty years, California always pays
the most for gas. Californians pay the most for gas,
(17:24):
and it's because of government policies, taxes and fees and regulations,
and they have banned a lot of drilling in California,
so we have to import a lot of gas and
oil from overseas, and it's tax there's climate change taxes,
(17:47):
there's sales taxes, there's all kinds of nonsense. Secondly, he
came out with a report projecting that by the end
of twenty twenty six, gas is going to cost eight
forty three per gallon because there are two refineries that
are closing in the next year and a half and
we have gone from over forty refineries, we're going to
(18:08):
be down to what about seven by the end of
twenty twenty six, and so the price of that's twenty
one percent of the refinery capacity is going to disappear.
And then you have the sixty five cent per gallon
increase coming from the California Air Resources Board for a
new fuel regulation demands.
Speaker 2 (18:28):
The whole thing is a mess.
Speaker 3 (18:30):
The people around the country are paying in the two
sixties and two seventies for gas, we're paying about five
now and it's going to go to almost eight fifty.
And now Newsome and his office is attacking Michael MChE
for his research, spearing him. Let's get Brian Jones on,
(18:51):
the Republican Senate Minority leader, who's got a lot to
say about that.
Speaker 2 (18:54):
Brian, welcome, Thank you, John.
Speaker 1 (18:57):
I'm glad you're recovering this, and I know you've been,
you know, having Professor Mache on your show and cover this,
and it is I hope that the voters in California
are finally realizing how much of a paper Mache governor
we have right now. And I didn't mean to mix
up the names there yet either. That was not that
(19:21):
the governor. He has a myriad of experts that he
could ask to run these same numbers and come up
with a legitimate rebuttal to what Professor Mache has been
saying about this, and instead he's going after he's well,
he's attacked me, he's attacked anybody who has anything different
(19:43):
opinion than he has, and he's attacked the professor and
his credentials, and that's just it's really unstatesmanlike and beneath
the office that the governor has right now to be
coming to be doing these kind of attacks.
Speaker 3 (19:59):
Well he can't. They're fewed it if it's true. And plus,
that's what they want. The progressives and Sacramento want gas
to be unaffordable. So we all surrender and start biking
around or taking electric cars.
Speaker 2 (20:12):
That's what they want.
Speaker 1 (20:13):
That was the purpose of that, yeah, or worth it,
we all get on public transit, which is what they
ultimately want. And you're right, there are people here in
Sacramento and across the state that that is their goal.
They've said that they've been continuous in that messaging that
we've got to make gasoline so expensive that people give
up their gas powered cars and get into public transit
(20:34):
or electric cars that they can't afford or don't want.
And it just goes to show that this governor is
not serious about governing. I'm as the leader of the
Republicans in the Senate. We're committed to fixing California and
making sure that we're bringing forward policies that are going
to drive down the cost of living for all Californians.
Speaker 3 (20:53):
Now, I thought, what might save us all when it
came to let's say, gas prices, is that he runs.
He's running for president, and no way he's going to
be running on eight to fifty a gallon for gas.
That's just not He's not going to do that. It's
a self preservation if nothing else. But it looks like
that's not happening.
Speaker 1 (21:14):
Well, I think I think what happened, John, is all
of these policies that the California we have today is
because of Governor Newsom and the policies that he's been
promoting for the last twenty years, two decades. And his
Democrat left Coast liberal friends, and they've been driving this
(21:35):
and driving this and driving this. You know, the twenty
thirty five man date, the twenty forty man date. You know.
He's been pushing all of these green policies for the
last two decades. And I truly believe he thought he
knew this, this wasn't going to work. He knew that
these policies are going to break down at some point
in time. I think he thought they were just going
(21:56):
to break down after he got out of office instead
of while he was in.
Speaker 3 (22:00):
But why is he pushing something that he knows isn't
going to work.
Speaker 1 (22:06):
Because it's popular, it had sounds good, went to the
voters that he associates with in Marin County, in San
Francisco County. Remember that's not the rest of the state.
And so he's surrounded himself, looking at his dinners, at
the French laundry, look at where he spends his time.
It's always around people that have insulated themselves from the
impacts of these financial costs here in California. The average
(22:31):
everyday Californian, the government WISLOM does not relate to the
average everyday Californian like you and I do. And so
it's up to folks like you and me to continue
this message, to bring it to the voters of California,
to let them know that he's not on their side.
He doesn't understand the plight of trying to fill up
(22:51):
your gas tank every week and put gasoline in your car,
and that two hundred dollars two hundred fifty dollars more
a month for gasoline actually has a negative impact on
the majority of Californians, even though it doesn't impact him
and the people he hangs out with.
Speaker 3 (23:09):
You know, every day I've been going on the tripa
A website and looking up the state by state gas prices,
and I think yesterday, I'm trying to call it up
right now, there were twenty seven states selling gas for
under three dollars a gallon, and they were about four
about forty three states, we're selling it for under three
(23:31):
point thirty a gallon. Nobody was within forty cents of California.
Only Hawaii was yeah, it's amazing, yeah, and it hit on.
Speaker 2 (23:40):
You go ahead.
Speaker 1 (23:42):
Here's the amazing thing. California. We have enough oil to
produce enough gasoline for our own market and Arizona and Nevada.
If this governor would just allow the oil companies to
extract the oil out of the ground, and if he
would allow the refinery companies to refine the oil into gasoline,
(24:03):
we could drive down these costs in California. The Democrats
and the governor keep saying they're all about affordability. They've
been saying that since January. They've done nothing to prove
that they actually care about the financial plight of Californias.
Anywhere in the states, this.
Speaker 2 (24:18):
Is what's crazy.
Speaker 3 (24:19):
Gas prices have been dropping dramatically across the country, oil
prices are down to it's close to sixty dollars a
battle barrel, which is really low. So I'm looking at
the TRIPAA state by state. Today's national averages three point fifteen.
But like I said, about twenty seven states are under three.
And we're talking states whose politics are almost as left
(24:41):
wing as California.
Speaker 2 (24:42):
Massachusetts correct to ninety seven.
Speaker 3 (24:45):
New Jersey is two ninety seven, New York is three
dollars and ten cents.
Speaker 2 (24:51):
I just it states with similar.
Speaker 1 (24:54):
To democrats, when those states know that fuel costs are
the basics is a basic pill of the economy, and
those democrats in those states are smart enough to not
run refineries out of business.
Speaker 3 (25:07):
Alaska is three dollars and fifty nine cents, Hawaii is
four point fifty. We're at four ninety one. We're two
cents higher than yesterday. And then we have these refineries closing,
and then we have that that carb sixty five cent
tax coming. I see how they get to eight dollars
and forty three cents a gallon. It makes sense if
(25:29):
you take away twenty percent of the supply. Well, of
course the price is going to go up. We're going
to be importing gasoline from Saudi Arabia of all places.
Speaker 1 (25:37):
Well, we already are. We're getting a small portion of
our oil already from Russia, We're getting oil from Ecuador,
the Amazon Jungle. We're getting oil from other parts of
the world as well. And John, when these refineries shut down,
now we'll be importing finished fuel, gasoline and diesel from
these other countries.
Speaker 2 (25:56):
Texas is at two seventy two.
Speaker 3 (25:58):
What happens in California if we're actually paying six dollars
more per gallon than twenty five or thirty other states?
Speaker 1 (26:08):
Is anything going to how many more people leave the stake?
I mean the economics here's I've been saying. We're in
an economics crisis right now when it comes to fuel costs, John,
We're on the precipice of an economic disaster. And the
important thing to understand is this is self made. Gavin
Newsom owns this crisis, and when it becomes a disaster,
(26:31):
he's going to own this this disaster. And remember, this
is not a natural disaster. This wasn't caused by an earthquake,
This wasn't caused by a tsunami, this wasn't caused by flooding.
This wasn't caused by hurricanes or tornadoes or snowfall or rain.
It was caused by the policies of this governor and
his leftist associates in the Democratic Party.
Speaker 3 (26:54):
All right, Brian, I got to run. Thank you for
coming on. We'll talk again.
Speaker 1 (26:58):
Thanks for covenant. We're going to keep more California.
Speaker 2 (27:01):
Brian Jones, Sennate Minority Leader.
Speaker 6 (27:03):
You're listening to John Cobels on demand from KFI AM
six forty.
Speaker 3 (27:09):
Moist fine for Friday is eight seven seven moist eighty
six eight seven seven moist eighty six. You may have
been hearing about the Palisades fire coverage, the Altadena fire
coverage for several months now and thinking, well, that's really
horrible and tragic, but it doesn't affect my life. The
fire didn't hit me. Well, the insurance surch charges are
(27:30):
going to hit you, because the companies that got hit
with billions of dollars worth of claims is they're they're
going to raise insurance rates on a lot of homes
that were nowhere near the fire zone. The California Fair
Plan with approval of that that Ricardi Lara cal fart Lara,
(27:57):
the insurance Commissioner the guy who's gone on four six trips,
many of them subsidized by the taxpayer, to countries all
over the world. Well, this guy is in charge of
the Fair Plan, and so now he has assessed the
insurance carriers in the plan a billion dollars. And the
(28:22):
Fair Plan is made up of various insurers and this
is regulated by the state, and they were swamped after
the Palisades and Altadena fires and expects the costs for
the fires are going to total about four billion dollars.
It doesn't have the money, it doesn't have much of
a surplus, it doesn't have much in the way of
(28:42):
reinsurance funds, and they need another billion dollars. So even
if you live one hundreds of miles away from the fires,
if you're in the Fair Plan, you could be forced
to pay an extra assessment on top of the annual
premium which have gone by up by hundreds and thousands
(29:03):
of dollars on their own. So no matter how high
the insurance has gone up under the Fair Plan for you,
it's going up even higher to account for this extra
billion dollars. Triple A Mercury are two of the largest
home insurers in the state, and they filed applications wanting
to raise rates also Amica or Amica and Western Mutual
(29:28):
and and this is going to get approved because the
fair Plan is broke. So Karen Bass flying off to
Africa and ignoring the weather report and the fire warnings,
Karen Bass giving us half a fire department in Los Angeles,
(29:48):
LA having one hundred of its fire engines getting repaired,
the fire Chief Kristin Crowley sending a thousand fire fighters home.
Speaker 2 (30:01):
All that means they have to raise a.
Speaker 3 (30:04):
Billion dollars from thousands of people who are were not
affected by the fires. So you have to pay for
the incompetence of Karen Bass and Kristin Crowley and the
LA City Council and the LA County Board of Supervisors
and their policies. There was a lot of damage done
(30:26):
in out to Dina, So you're all getting affected if
you're in the Fair Plan, no matter where you're living
in the state. And it all leads back to a horrific,
horrible response and horrific prevention policies. We will continue covering this.
We got Michael Krozer coming up with the news. Conway
(30:48):
is next and Michael is live in the CAFI twenty
four our 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 Cobel podcast on the iHeartRadio
app on every day on until four o'clock, and after
four o'clock you can hear the show online on the
iHeartRadio app. It's John Cobel Show on Demand. It's the
podcast version. It's the same as what we're doing here.
At three point thirty after Deborah's news, we are going
(00:22):
to have the state Minority Leader Brian Jones. He released well,
he had a press release come out today angry with
Newsom staff who are attacking the USC Professor Michael McShee
because miche is telling the truth that Newsom's policies which
(00:43):
have led to two refineries shutting down and to the
California Air Resources Board raising gas later this year by
sixty five cents a gallon, this is going to lead
to eight dollars and forty three cents per gallon gas
by next year, and so your gas prices are going
to go up seventy five percent. And missche has been
(01:07):
making the rounds explaining his research. He's done a lot
of research recently, all of it quite unflattering to Newsom,
because what Newsom is doing is punishing everybody to try
to force us to go to electric cars, and you
know the reasons that's not working. So now his staff
is smearing Michael MChE and Brian Jones Sentminori leader wants
(01:31):
to wants to Well, he's got a lot to say
about that. We'll get to that in a few minutes.
Time to once again if you're just joining us. Deborah Mark,
our award winning news anchor, won another one yesterday or
this morning.
Speaker 2 (01:47):
The Edward R.
Speaker 3 (01:48):
Murrow Award for her series called Suicide, Stigma and Shame.
You may remember it from last year. It's a regional
award against I guess stations and new casters from all
over California and beyond and Melifornia, Nevada, and it's entered
in a national competition.
Speaker 2 (02:06):
Now.
Speaker 4 (02:07):
Yeah, so I'll find out in the summer if if
I win it nationally.
Speaker 3 (02:14):
If I am six forty dot com slash suicide And
you can get links to both parts of that series
and also a link to Deborah and I talking about
it when it was originally aired last September. Right, Yes,
so congratulations to her, than you please don't text her
while she's driving home.
Speaker 5 (02:34):
Yeah, she got no I'm going to put my phone.
Speaker 2 (02:35):
Away when I'm going she got pulled over by the
cops today.
Speaker 4 (02:37):
I was so excited looking at all the likes and
comments and texts that I really was distracted.
Speaker 2 (02:44):
That's right.
Speaker 3 (02:44):
So you know, you could cause a major accident on
the one on one if you text her this afternoon.
We've been we've been doing a lot today. I for
some reason, I don't know why things go in waves.
There's a herd mentality. But there's been a lot of
stories on Gavin Newsom, kind of retrospective stories. Hey, he
(03:07):
really is running for president. Hey, he's really like trying
to change his views publicly. Like yesterday he came out
and he was very tough on cities and counties, demanding
that they pass an ordinance to ban homeless encampments and
to clear out those encampments and nobody gets more than
three days and you can't be camped out on a
(03:28):
street or sidewalk anymore. And that's kind of triggered some
of the news media woke a few of them up
to say, hey, let's look at what he's actually done.
And Michael Schellenberger at Public Dot News had a great
article that we went through earlier in the show to
listen to the one o'clock hour on the podcast about
all the bad policies that Newsome instituted, enabled, amplified, really
(03:57):
destructive policies that led to at this point, almost two
hundred thousand people living on the street and thousands are
dying every year. And it is a good game to play.
It's like, how many people has Gavin Newsom killed? Between
all the homeless people? I mean, I mean that a
lot of the homeless came from the prisons originally going
(04:17):
back ten years with Jerry Brown. Jerry Brown, by the way,
was a destructive governor. A gag every time I read
a story about Jerry Brown to this day. The news
media have their collective heads so far up his rear end,
and he unleashed. The homelessness to a large extent, came
from the prisoners that Jerry Brown dumped. The journalists suck
(04:44):
in this state. They just flat out suck. They're awful.
They're so full of propaganda, soul full of lies. So
part is in so progressive. Well, now we've got the
California Globe californiaglobe dot com a story on how many
California cities are running huge budget deficits, and to open
(05:05):
the story, they go through Gavin Newsom's state budget. You know,
Newsom keeps changing the claims on the budget deficit. It's
probably seventy billion dollars. The Legislative Analyst Office last year
said seventy billion. There's a revised budget and they say,
(05:25):
all right, well maybe it's fifty five billion. Newsom's only
admitting to twenty seven billion. Whatever it is, it has
to be balanced, that's the law. And they have way overshot.
Politico thought it was ten billion, which coincidentally matches almost
exactly matches how much money we have spent on illegal
(05:50):
alien healthcare. Yes, we give medical to illegal aliens and
that's about twelve billion dollars. So yeah, it's really aggravating.
News admits like a ten billion dollar budget deficit, but
it's twelve billion dollars for legal aliens. So stop doing that.
No other state does that. It's like Karen Bass. You know,
(06:14):
she's cutting police and fire because she's got a billion
dollar deficit. Well, that's the homeless budget right there. Don't
spend the billion dollars on the homeless, then you wouldn't
have the problem. But what do I keep telling you
all the progressives and the media supports this and amplifies
(06:36):
it and does propaganda for it. What are the three
categories they keep coming up over and over again every day.
It's illegal aliens, it's homeless people, and it's criminals. So
what did I just tell you? New some letout criminals
and they became a lot of the homeless and they
started committing more crimes.
Speaker 2 (06:55):
We covered that last hour.
Speaker 3 (06:57):
We've got illegal aliens now getting healthcare, big budget deficit,
we got homeless people and all the nonprofits that are
stealing that money. We got a big budget deficit in LA.
Those are the three things that are costing us money
and frightening us. Makes makes the whole place unsafe and scary.
(07:19):
Legal aliens, homeless people and criminals the only three constituencies
for all the woke progressives. One other thing, the Globe
points out, and this is never mentioned enough. When Jerry
Brown was elected again in twenty eleven, the state budget
was ninety eight billion dollars ninety eight billion dollars fourteen
(07:41):
years ago. It blew up to three hundred and thirty billion,
three hundred and thirty ninety eight So whatever it was
fourteen years ago, multiply that by three and then add some.
Speaker 2 (08:04):
It more than tripled. And what do we get for this?
Speaker 3 (08:08):
We got all the vagrants in the streets, We got
all the crime. We have all this money going to
illegal aliens. How do you go from ninety eight billion
to three hundred and thirty billion. And in California globe
goes through City of La there are a bunch of
deficits a billion plus San Diego three hundred million, Sacramento
(08:32):
sixty six million, San Francisco eight hundred and seventy six million,
San Jose sixty million, Fresno twenty million, Oakland two hundred
and sixty eight million, Berkeley twenty eight million.
Speaker 2 (08:47):
Why because we spend money on all the.
Speaker 3 (08:54):
All the losers in life who don't deserve this money,
don't appreciate this money, and don't take any control over
their lives so they could work themselves and earn their
own money. And they're dying in the streets anyway, they're
whacked out on drugs, anyway, they're here illegally in a
lot of cases, or are they continue committing crimes. We
(09:17):
just told you last hour that Newsom dumped out almost
fifteen thousand prisoners during COVID, and almost five thousand committed
crimes that were sent back to prison, including thirty guys
who killed people. Thirty of them they weren't in for
murder until Newsom dumped them out of prison, then they
committed the thirty murders. Could you be more destructive? Is
(09:42):
it possible to be more destructive? And now he's running
around trying to remake himself, reposition himself, getting tough on
the homeless people.
Speaker 2 (09:57):
He's so full of it.
Speaker 6 (10:00):
Listening to John Cobelt on demand from KFI AM six forty.
Speaker 3 (10:06):
After Depbor's news at three point thirty, we're going to
have Brian Jones on the Senate Minority Leader Republican because
have you heard what Kevin Newsom is doing? That that
little weasel. He's upset that the USC professor Michael mcshe
is telling the truth that Newsom's policies are going to
lead to eight dollars and forty three cent a gallon
(10:27):
gas by the end of next year. Mischee has released
his analysis. He's been on our show several times now,
and he's going on television interviews and it's in the
papers and nobody can refute it. It makes perfect sense
because there's two refineries closing, there's a sixty five cent
(10:48):
to gallon price increase coming because of carb demanding a
new fuel formulation. There are taxes that are being increased,
and it's all going to lead to eight dollars and
forty three sense a gallon gas. And Newsome deputized one
of his weasels to send out a press release or
put put out on Twitter some nonsense about Mische being
(11:13):
some sort of tool of Saudi Arabia because years ago
Miche did some unrelated work for Saudi Arabia and it
was it was like a non existed connection to the
California oil and gas situation. It was really cheap. It
was a smear, it was it was wrong. And this
(11:35):
is what Newsom does because you know, he's he's got
to run for president when they're selling gas for two
dollars and sixty cents in some states and we're gonna
be at eight forty three. We'll get to that coming
up after three point thirty with Brian Jones, the Senate
Minority Leader. This story came out a few days ago,
(11:58):
and I can't get this out of my head. Did
you see the Mark Zuckerberg appearance. He had an on
stage interview at some conference, and he says, eventually, the
average person is going to have more AI friends than
(12:21):
real friends, and that's the way the world is going.
Speaker 5 (12:24):
How sad.
Speaker 2 (12:25):
And he's going to provide the AI friends.
Speaker 5 (12:28):
Oh, he's going to choose the AI friends.
Speaker 3 (12:30):
Yeah, he's well, yeah, he's going to make money off
of this. His technology is going to create AI friends.
And then you know what, he is such a creepy weirdo.
Speaker 4 (12:40):
But how is he going to tailor those AI type
of friends to everybody?
Speaker 3 (12:45):
It's kind of like the algorithms that feed you your
Netflix shows or YouTube's choices. I think people are going
to want a system that knows them well and that
kind of understands them the way that their algorithm do
their feeds. The average person wants to have more friends
(13:06):
and connections with other people than they currently do.
Speaker 4 (13:09):
Yeah, but you want real friends, not fake AI friends.
Speaker 3 (13:12):
He says, AI friends are the solution. The average American
I think has fewer than three friends, three people that
consider friends.
Speaker 2 (13:22):
Is that true?
Speaker 3 (13:24):
It's not like I'm mister popularity, but I got way
more than three friends and I know you do.
Speaker 5 (13:28):
Yeah, I don't know. I mean, that's sad if that's true.
Speaker 3 (13:32):
The average person wants fifteen friends, according to Zuckerberg. You know,
Zuckerberg going to be locked up in a mental institution.
He's already done enough damage to the world. For people
who don't have a person who's a therapist, I think
everyone will have an AI and then the AI person
(13:53):
could help you with your problems.
Speaker 2 (13:59):
You remember a few years ago an augmented reality.
Speaker 3 (14:01):
Yes, you were supposed to put on like a twelve
thousand pounds headset, yeah, and live in this alternate cartoon
world with other people, and everyone was an avatar.
Speaker 4 (14:10):
Look, I get recluses, people that are lonely would be
into that, but the normal person.
Speaker 3 (14:18):
No, he's throwing a lot of money at chatbots. There
are a lot of people who are who think they're
talking to people and they're not. They're talking to chatbots.
Speaker 5 (14:29):
Yes, that is true online for sure.
Speaker 3 (14:32):
They have unleashed chat bots in a lot of the
social media and they start arguments with humans, and the
humans don't know the difference and spend their day getting angry.
They start political fights.
Speaker 4 (14:46):
For example, all you have to say is are you real?
Or are you a bot? That's what I would write,
Are you real or are you a bot?
Speaker 2 (14:53):
Well, the bot's not legally required to tell you the truth.
Speaker 5 (14:56):
I think it would.
Speaker 2 (14:57):
No, the bots lie.
Speaker 5 (14:58):
It's gonna say unreal. You should try that.
Speaker 3 (15:00):
God, are you real? And then he says, yes.
Speaker 5 (15:08):
No, you're not a photo and not dude.
Speaker 7 (15:12):
You guys clearly haven't seen these AI bots on social media.
Speaker 2 (15:15):
Yet, have you?
Speaker 7 (15:16):
Yes?
Speaker 4 (15:17):
I mean I see I see a lot of when
I'm dealing with stores and customers service.
Speaker 7 (15:24):
No, I'm saying, I'm saying on social media, I'll get
like in my suggested friends of like people you may know, Yeah,
it'll be these AI chatbots that Zuckerberg is trying to Well.
Speaker 2 (15:33):
Yeah, if you look, you can kind of tell when
they're fake. Well. It also it has a designation too
that it says it's AI. Oh so he's feeding real
AI people into your feed.
Speaker 7 (15:44):
Yes, as like a suggested like friend like, hey, you
should follow this part seriously.
Speaker 3 (15:48):
Yes, encouraging me to cook on next time I start
talking to it. Next time I see it all screenshot
it and sent which platform is he doing this? I've
seen it on Instagram, which Meta owns, right.
Speaker 4 (16:04):
I'm looking at Instagram right now just to see if
anybody is trying to.
Speaker 2 (16:08):
Those are some of the listeners that complain to you.
Speaker 3 (16:10):
I think, yes, they're not real exactly, and then you
get mad and right back to them.
Speaker 5 (16:15):
Oh, I don't do that anymore.
Speaker 3 (16:16):
But people, they don't exist, they don't care what you think.
All right, we come back. We're going to have Brian Jones,
the Senate Minority Leader of the Republican He's coming on
because he's pretty appalled at what Newsom is doing trying
to smear the USC professor Michael Masche, because Mache is
pointing out just how high the the gas prices are
(16:37):
going to be.
Speaker 2 (16:38):
Yeah, you run on that, Newsom.
Speaker 3 (16:40):
That and all the criminals you let out at a prison,
and all the illegal aliens that are getting billions of
dollars of our money, and what else. Oh yeah, yeah,
the two hundred thousand homeless that are in the streets
over your policies, you go run on that. They're gonna
love you, Nebraska.
Speaker 6 (16:58):
You're listening to John Cobelt on demand from KFI AM
six forty.
Speaker 3 (17:03):
Brian Jones is coming on here. Just a quick rundown
of what we've been talking about for weeks. USC Professor
Michael Msche has put out a couple of reports. First
one said, over the last fifty years, California always pays
the most for gas. Californians pay the most for gas,
(17:24):
and it's because of government policies, taxes and fees and regulations,
and they have banned a lot of drilling in California,
so we have to import a lot of gas and
oil from overseas, and it's tax there's climate change taxes,
(17:47):
there's sales taxes, there's all kinds of nonsense. Secondly, he
came out with a report projecting that by the end
of twenty twenty six, gas is going to cost eight
forty three per gallon because there are two refineries that
are closing in the next year and a half and
we have gone from over forty refineries, we're going to
(18:08):
be down to what about seven by the end of
twenty twenty six, and so the price of that's twenty
one percent of the refinery capacity is going to disappear.
And then you have the sixty five cent per gallon
increase coming from the California Air Resources Board for a
new fuel regulation demands.
Speaker 2 (18:28):
The whole thing is a mess.
Speaker 3 (18:30):
The people around the country are paying in the two
sixties and two seventies for gas, we're paying about five
now and it's going to go to almost eight fifty.
And now Newsome and his office is attacking Michael MChE
for his research, spearing him. Let's get Brian Jones on,
(18:51):
the Republican Senate Minority leader, who's got a lot to
say about that.
Speaker 2 (18:54):
Brian, welcome, Thank you, John.
Speaker 1 (18:57):
I'm glad you're recovering this, and I know you've been,
you know, having Professor Mache on your show and cover this,
and it is I hope that the voters in California
are finally realizing how much of a paper Mache governor
we have right now. And I didn't mean to mix
up the names there yet either. That was not that
(19:21):
the governor. He has a myriad of experts that he
could ask to run these same numbers and come up
with a legitimate rebuttal to what Professor Mache has been
saying about this, and instead he's going after he's well,
he's attacked me, he's attacked anybody who has anything different
(19:43):
opinion than he has, and he's attacked the professor and
his credentials, and that's just it's really unstatesmanlike and beneath
the office that the governor has right now to be
coming to be doing these kind of attacks.
Speaker 3 (19:59):
Well he can't. They're fewed it if it's true. And plus,
that's what they want. The progressives and Sacramento want gas
to be unaffordable. So we all surrender and start biking
around or taking electric cars.
Speaker 2 (20:12):
That's what they want.
Speaker 1 (20:13):
That was the purpose of that, yeah, or worth it,
we all get on public transit, which is what they
ultimately want. And you're right, there are people here in
Sacramento and across the state that that is their goal.
They've said that they've been continuous in that messaging that
we've got to make gasoline so expensive that people give
up their gas powered cars and get into public transit
(20:34):
or electric cars that they can't afford or don't want.
And it just goes to show that this governor is
not serious about governing. I'm as the leader of the
Republicans in the Senate. We're committed to fixing California and
making sure that we're bringing forward policies that are going
to drive down the cost of living for all Californians.
Speaker 3 (20:53):
Now, I thought, what might save us all when it
came to let's say, gas prices, is that he runs.
He's running for president, and no way he's going to
be running on eight to fifty a gallon for gas.
That's just not He's not going to do that. It's
a self preservation if nothing else. But it looks like
that's not happening.
Speaker 1 (21:14):
Well, I think I think what happened, John, is all
of these policies that the California we have today is
because of Governor Newsom and the policies that he's been
promoting for the last twenty years, two decades. And his
Democrat left Coast liberal friends, and they've been driving this
(21:35):
and driving this and driving this. You know, the twenty
thirty five man date, the twenty forty man date. You know.
He's been pushing all of these green policies for the
last two decades. And I truly believe he thought he
knew this, this wasn't going to work. He knew that
these policies are going to break down at some point
in time. I think he thought they were just going
(21:56):
to break down after he got out of office instead
of while he was in.
Speaker 3 (22:00):
But why is he pushing something that he knows isn't
going to work.
Speaker 1 (22:06):
Because it's popular, it had sounds good, went to the
voters that he associates with in Marin County, in San
Francisco County. Remember that's not the rest of the state.
And so he's surrounded himself, looking at his dinners, at
the French laundry, look at where he spends his time.
It's always around people that have insulated themselves from the
impacts of these financial costs here in California. The average
(22:31):
everyday Californian, the government WISLOM does not relate to the
average everyday Californian like you and I do. And so
it's up to folks like you and me to continue
this message, to bring it to the voters of California,
to let them know that he's not on their side.
He doesn't understand the plight of trying to fill up
(22:51):
your gas tank every week and put gasoline in your car,
and that two hundred dollars two hundred fifty dollars more
a month for gasoline actually has a negative impact on
the majority of Californians, even though it doesn't impact him
and the people he hangs out with.
Speaker 3 (23:09):
You know, every day I've been going on the tripa
A website and looking up the state by state gas prices,
and I think yesterday, I'm trying to call it up
right now, there were twenty seven states selling gas for
under three dollars a gallon, and they were about four
about forty three states, we're selling it for under three
(23:31):
point thirty a gallon. Nobody was within forty cents of California.
Only Hawaii was yeah, it's amazing, yeah, and it hit on.
Speaker 2 (23:40):
You go ahead.
Speaker 1 (23:42):
Here's the amazing thing. California. We have enough oil to
produce enough gasoline for our own market and Arizona and Nevada.
If this governor would just allow the oil companies to
extract the oil out of the ground, and if he
would allow the refinery companies to refine the oil into gasoline,
(24:03):
we could drive down these costs in California. The Democrats
and the governor keep saying they're all about affordability. They've
been saying that since January. They've done nothing to prove
that they actually care about the financial plight of Californias.
Anywhere in the states, this.
Speaker 2 (24:18):
Is what's crazy.
Speaker 3 (24:19):
Gas prices have been dropping dramatically across the country, oil
prices are down to it's close to sixty dollars a
battle barrel, which is really low. So I'm looking at
the TRIPAA state by state. Today's national averages three point fifteen.
But like I said, about twenty seven states are under three.
And we're talking states whose politics are almost as left
(24:41):
wing as California.
Speaker 2 (24:42):
Massachusetts correct to ninety seven.
Speaker 3 (24:45):
New Jersey is two ninety seven, New York is three
dollars and ten cents.
Speaker 2 (24:51):
I just it states with similar.
Speaker 1 (24:54):
To democrats, when those states know that fuel costs are
the basics is a basic pill of the economy, and
those democrats in those states are smart enough to not
run refineries out of business.
Speaker 3 (25:07):
Alaska is three dollars and fifty nine cents, Hawaii is
four point fifty. We're at four ninety one. We're two
cents higher than yesterday. And then we have these refineries closing,
and then we have that that carb sixty five cent
tax coming. I see how they get to eight dollars
and forty three cents a gallon. It makes sense if
(25:29):
you take away twenty percent of the supply. Well, of
course the price is going to go up. We're going
to be importing gasoline from Saudi Arabia of all places.
Speaker 1 (25:37):
Well, we already are. We're getting a small portion of
our oil already from Russia, We're getting oil from Ecuador,
the Amazon Jungle. We're getting oil from other parts of
the world as well. And John, when these refineries shut down,
now we'll be importing finished fuel, gasoline and diesel from
these other countries.
Speaker 2 (25:56):
Texas is at two seventy two.
Speaker 3 (25:58):
What happens in California if we're actually paying six dollars
more per gallon than twenty five or thirty other states?
Speaker 1 (26:08):
Is anything going to how many more people leave the stake?
I mean the economics here's I've been saying. We're in
an economics crisis right now when it comes to fuel costs, John,
We're on the precipice of an economic disaster. And the
important thing to understand is this is self made. Gavin
Newsom owns this crisis, and when it becomes a disaster,
(26:31):
he's going to own this this disaster. And remember, this
is not a natural disaster. This wasn't caused by an earthquake,
This wasn't caused by a tsunami, this wasn't caused by flooding.
This wasn't caused by hurricanes or tornadoes or snowfall or rain.
It was caused by the policies of this governor and
his leftist associates in the Democratic Party.
Speaker 3 (26:54):
All right, Brian, I got to run. Thank you for
coming on. We'll talk again.
Speaker 1 (26:58):
Thanks for covenant. We're going to keep more California.
Speaker 2 (27:01):
Brian Jones, Sennate Minority Leader.
Speaker 6 (27:03):
You're listening to John Cobels on demand from KFI AM
six forty.
Speaker 3 (27:09):
Moist fine for Friday is eight seven seven moist eighty
six eight seven seven moist eighty six. You may have
been hearing about the Palisades fire coverage, the Altadena fire
coverage for several months now and thinking, well, that's really
horrible and tragic, but it doesn't affect my life. The
fire didn't hit me. Well, the insurance surch charges are
(27:30):
going to hit you, because the companies that got hit
with billions of dollars worth of claims is they're they're
going to raise insurance rates on a lot of homes
that were nowhere near the fire zone. The California Fair
Plan with approval of that that Ricardi Lara cal fart Lara,
(27:57):
the insurance Commissioner the guy who's gone on four six trips,
many of them subsidized by the taxpayer, to countries all
over the world. Well, this guy is in charge of
the Fair Plan, and so now he has assessed the
insurance carriers in the plan a billion dollars. And the
(28:22):
Fair Plan is made up of various insurers and this
is regulated by the state, and they were swamped after
the Palisades and Altadena fires and expects the costs for
the fires are going to total about four billion dollars.
It doesn't have the money, it doesn't have much of
a surplus, it doesn't have much in the way of
(28:42):
reinsurance funds, and they need another billion dollars. So even
if you live one hundreds of miles away from the fires,
if you're in the Fair Plan, you could be forced
to pay an extra assessment on top of the annual
premium which have gone by up by hundreds and thousands
(29:03):
of dollars on their own. So no matter how high
the insurance has gone up under the Fair Plan for you,
it's going up even higher to account for this extra
billion dollars. Triple A Mercury are two of the largest
home insurers in the state, and they filed applications wanting
to raise rates also Amica or Amica and Western Mutual
(29:28):
and and this is going to get approved because the
fair Plan is broke. So Karen Bass flying off to
Africa and ignoring the weather report and the fire warnings,
Karen Bass giving us half a fire department in Los Angeles,
(29:48):
LA having one hundred of its fire engines getting repaired,
the fire Chief Kristin Crowley sending a thousand fire fighters home.
Speaker 2 (30:01):
All that means they have to raise a.
Speaker 3 (30:04):
Billion dollars from thousands of people who are were not
affected by the fires. So you have to pay for
the incompetence of Karen Bass and Kristin Crowley and the
LA City Council and the LA County Board of Supervisors
and their policies. There was a lot of damage done
(30:26):
in out to Dina, So you're all getting affected if
you're in the Fair Plan, no matter where you're living
in the state. And it all leads back to a horrific,
horrible response and horrific prevention policies. We will continue covering this.
