Speaker 1 (00:00):
Can't. I am six forty.
Speaker 2 (00:02):
You're listening to the John Cobel podcast on the iHeartRadio app.
Speaker 1 (00:06):
Welcome to the program.
Speaker 2 (00:07):
We are on every day from one until four o'clock,
and then every day as a public service, we offer
you the podcast. It's the same as the radio show.
This way, if you miss anything, you can listen to
it later on in the day, or tomorrow, or whenever
you have a chance. There is a tremendous amount going on.
People in public office are literally just losing their minds.
(00:32):
We are going to be covering the California Senator Alex Paedia.
Kind of a dud senator. You don't hear about it much.
He used to be the city council president in La
so he helped ruin La years ago, and of course
he gets promoted to be senator by California voters. Well,
he showed up at the Homeland Secretary Christy Nomes press
(00:54):
conference today with it didn't identify himself, it didn't have
this little senate pin on, so people knew who he was,
and he just started blurting out comments or questions, and
so Nome's security grabbed him and wrestled him and then
took him down to the ground and and alex Pidia
(01:16):
was handcuffed. So I'm watching video now because every few
minutes they have another angle. So now I got a
video on CNN showing sewing Padilla actually splayed on the
ground with about four agents handcuffing him. And yeah, you
can't tell from the way he's acting in nomes press
(01:39):
conference who he is, Like he's not dressed in a suit,
and he has no identification on him. He doesn't say
who he is until they've already grabbed him. So I
guess they instinctively thought he was a security risk. Uh,
we'll cover that. You have in Congress. You've got three
demic credit governors getting grilled today over being sanctuary states.
(02:07):
We've got more, we've got more demonstrations, We've got more
raids going on, and you know, this is ground zero
for all the insanity. In half an hour, and this
is most important, Actually, in about twenty minutes, they're supposed
to be a hearing one thirty Pacific time Federal District
(02:27):
Court judge in San Francisco, we'll be hearing arguments in
the lawsuit that Gavin Newsom has filed against Donald Trump.
This is Trump taking over four thousand National Guard troops
and having them deployed here in the Los Angeles area,
also sending in seven hundred marines. Newsom on behalf of
(02:48):
the state wants a temporary restraining order that would limit
the troops to guard federal buildings in Los Angeles with
no other responsibilities. Mostly that's what they're doing. There's a
few National Guard troops have started accompanying the ICE agents
during the raids. This week, We're going to go to
(03:08):
ABC legal analyst Royal Oaks as we await in.
Speaker 1 (03:13):
About twenty minutes the start of the hearing, Royal, how
are you.
Speaker 3 (03:17):
I'm doing great, John, Yeah, A lot going on todays.
Speaker 2 (03:19):
Just say, the judge in this case is what's his name, Briar,
Charles Bryer, right, right, And he's the brother of a
former Supreme Court justice.
Speaker 3 (03:32):
And yeah, Stephen Bryer.
Speaker 1 (03:33):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (03:33):
And so Charles Bryer is going to decide this. How
quickly do you think he will make a decision? Is
this something that's instantaneous or is this something we're going
to hear about in a week.
Speaker 3 (03:44):
He probably is going to decide either during the hearing
that will go probably from one thirty to two thirty
or very shortly thereafter, maybe later today, maybe tomorrow morning.
And that's because you know, this has sort of the
earmarks of an emergency. You know, the troops are rolling
around loss and either they have a legal right to
be there or they don't. And so you know, it
(04:04):
wouldn't make much a sense for him to sit on
it for a week or a month. But you know,
as you've been reporting, I mean, this all got kicked
off a few days ago when Newsoman or a bout
the filed a lawsuit and it said, hey, federal judge,
Trump has no legal right to send troops. You know,
we've got a principle in America here the cops enforced law,
not the military. You know, that's what happens in Banana republics.
(04:27):
And also, you know, look at the law. You've got
to have the governor's approval. He has to invite you
into the state. And Trump certainly didn't get Newsom's approval.
And you know, Trump has an answer to this stuff.
Trump says, now, look look more carefully at the law.
It just says we have to let the governor know
what we're up to. Doesn't mean that he has veto power.
And by the way, you know, you can say this
(04:48):
isn't a rebellion or an invasion by some foreign country,
but it's a big deal. It really is a threat
to public safety. And you know, they're destroying federal property.
They're taking chunks of rocks and concrete, throwing it, and
the cops just haven't been able to handle them. In
our LAPD chief just said the other day, you know
this is you know what, we're not able to handle this,
so too healthy different, healthy difference of opinion. And you
(05:11):
know this judge, some people are assuming, well, you know,
he's a Democrat appointee, as are all fourteen of the
federal judges in San Francisco. They're all appointed by Democrat presidents.
So people assume.
Speaker 2 (05:22):
The Republicans tend to have an administration about half the time,
it goes back and forth. How did the Republicans never
get an opening all these years in the San Francisco area.
Speaker 3 (05:34):
Yeah, it's because that these senators are given a sort
of veto power over the appointment of federal judges by
the president. It's an informal thing, and Trump doesn't always followed.
The other thing is, you know, John judges know that
if they retire, they know the current president is going
to be able to replace them. And it's not just
democrat or appointed judges that do this, but there are
(05:56):
so many Democrats appointed judges up in San Francisco. They
don't want to They want to hang in until somebody
they like can appoint them. So I think that's why
it's fourteen to zip.
Speaker 2 (06:07):
So the way I read the law and the way
other analysts read the law, and I'm not a legal scholar,
or you're much more inclined to be called the legal
scholar than I am. It doesn't say that the president
cannot do this. It doesn't say that a governor has
veto power just looking at the exact language. Do judges
(06:32):
look at the exact language? Or do judges have biases
where they start seeing things that aren't there and twisting
words in a way that's beneficial to their opinion.
Speaker 1 (06:43):
What do they really do?
Speaker 3 (06:45):
Yeah, well, first of all, you're absolutely right on your
last point. I mean, let's be real here, in most
high profile cases that have sort of political, social, culture
war implications, you can just go to the bank and
bet that a judge is going to rule the way
the president who appointed him or her would like them
to rule it it's wrong. I mean, you know, let's
(07:06):
fay sical. Judges make decisions. Lives are in the balance.
You know, people's lives can be destroyed financially or literally
based on judge's decisions. But so often you can just
predict how they come out. So that's that's the bad news.
The good news is, yeah, they do look at the law.
There's job is to try to hear the facts and
look at the law and say who should win. Sometimes
the law can be ambiguous. Right here. For example, it
(07:27):
says you will send in the troops through the governor. Well,
Newsom says that means I get to veto it. Trump says, no,
I just have to keep you posted. Well, what does
it really mean? You could look at legislative history where
the committees in Congress talked about it, do whatever. You
can look at other cases that have construed the language.
End of the day, Judge Charles Bryer is going to
make a call, probably later today, is whether Newsom or
(07:50):
Trump is right and in a way Trump is going
to win either way because you know, as we you
and I have talked about if Trump gets the right
to send the troops in. You know, you be I win.
We're going to keep order. If the judge says, sendra
marine's home, Powell, then Trump gets to say to the nation, well,
elections have consequences. You better vote Republican. Get a bunch
of good judges appointed, because this guy is letting people
(08:11):
die on the streets of Los Angeles. So it's going
to be a dramatic hearing in COURTUS afternoon.
Speaker 2 (08:17):
You know, the way I always looked at the National Guard,
I always looked at them as a subset of the
military given over to the States to deploy when there's
a local disaster of some kind, right, whether it's criminal
or natural disaster. But they really are part of the military.
And the president, whoever he is, is still the commander
(08:38):
in chief, and it seems like the National Guard would
be included under his domain. Is that a crazy thought?
Speaker 3 (08:45):
No, you're absolutely right, and you put your finger on
a key reason why Trump may just win this afternoon.
The president has a lot of discretion, you know, not
only with foreign policy but also immigration and this business
of you know, when the federal government should be able
to send in troops. Now you can say I hate
the idea that's how you know things go on in
Banana Republic. It's first step toward dictatorship. But I think
(09:07):
this judge may well say, look, I got to respect
the discretion of the President of the United States, especially
if what he's doing is limited to protecting federal property
and protecting federal employees, because I think this judge knows
there's going to be a real firestorm of protest across
the country. If a single federal judge says, you know,
you're seven hundred to you know, marine guys, you go
(09:28):
back to Washington.
Speaker 2 (09:30):
And ice officers or federal employees. So if they decide
those those federal employees, the ice officers need protection, well,
then of course you might have to turn to the
National Guard. Now there are obviously many other law enforcement
units in the federal government, but I just don't see
how a governor gets to overrule a president on the
(09:53):
use of military people.
Speaker 3 (09:56):
Yeah, well, I think you're right. And you know, even
though in general you can predict how a judge might
rule looking at who appointed him, I in this case,
you know Trump Trump might be pleased by this outcome.
One quick little inside the baseball thing. Trump's lawyers filed
a brief they had less than a day. Noticed. They
filed it yesterday at eleven am. And they did it
so quickly they didn't have time to include two chunks
(10:18):
of the brief, a list of all your cases, and
a listed table of contents. And it's funny because you know,
having filed so many briefs, you've got to pre press
send by the exact day. It's the moment it's due
or else. So somebody can get yelled at because Trump's
brief didn't have all the little uh, didn't cross the
t's and dot the eyes, but he got the substance
in the right. You know, his position is, you know,
(10:39):
I've got discretion. I want to save lives, So judge,
let me do my thing.
Speaker 2 (10:45):
All right, Well, we'll talk with you again, maybe soon,
depending on how quickly the judge may makes the decision.
Royal Oaks, ABC News legal analyst, And in about fifteen
minutes or less, Charles Bryer, Federal District Court judge in
San Francisco, will hear arguments in the lawsuit that Newsom
has brought against Trump over who gets to control the
(11:07):
National Guard here in California.
Speaker 1 (11:09):
More coming up.
Speaker 4 (11:11):
You're listening to John Cobelt on demand from KFI AM
six forty.
Speaker 2 (11:17):
I AM six forty more stimulating talk radio, and that
hearing is supposed to start if they're on schedule, in
about six and a half minutes. And that's Judge Charles
Bryer in San Francisco, appointed by Bill Clinton in nineteen
ninety seven. It's a federal district court. This is the
(11:38):
first tier of federal courts, and then it can go
on to the Court of Appeals and then finally the
Supreme Court. So Newsom wants a temporary restraining order that
keeps the National Guard and the Marines to guarding federal
buildings with no other responsibilities. Largely that's what they're doing.
There's been a few National Guard troops that have companied
(12:00):
ICE agents during immigration raids. But if the idea is
to protect federal employees and to protect federal property, federal buildings,
then if you have ICE agents out on the loose there,
they need protection too, because look at the kind of
assaults that are happening. There have been a number of
assaults on ICE agents by these fanatical protesters. And God,
(12:22):
I've got a lot to say about the whole illegal
alien protection industry that developed over the last twenty years,
and you financed a lot of it with your taxes.
We talked about it extensively, Churler being the number one
example here in Los Angeles, and I could tell reading
the quotes here, they're all scared because.
Speaker 1 (12:42):
They know what they've been doing.
Speaker 2 (12:44):
They've been spending money, and they've been involved in activities
that aid and a bet illegal aliens and all that's
against the law. And now they're getting investigated every which
way by the US Attorney's Office, by a Senate committee,
and they're gonna shore. We're going to shake all these nonprofits,
these non governmental organizations, and we're going to find out
(13:06):
just exactly how they've been protecting in many cases violent
illegal aliens for years and spending our tax money to
boot on it.
Speaker 1 (13:16):
It's not an insignificant amount.
Speaker 2 (13:18):
This is a major, major scandal that really was allowed
to take root and build a lot of infrastructure here
in California. And I'm glad the whole thing is finally
getting blown up now onto this insanity. Department of Homeland Security.
Christy Nome, she's the secretary. She had a press conference today.
She's in La to oversee the entire operation, and Senator
(13:44):
Alex Paedia walked into the briefing room and interrupted Gnome.
It looks like security didn't know who he was, and
they grabbed him and pushed him back, eventually dragged him
outside and wrestled him to the I've seen a number
of video angles.
Speaker 1 (14:03):
Here's what it sounded like. Let's start with cut number eight.
Speaker 3 (14:07):
The city.
Speaker 5 (14:08):
So I want to say thank you to every single
person that has been able.
Speaker 4 (14:13):
To do this.
Speaker 5 (14:14):
Also, I want to talk specifically to the rioters and
to the politicians in Los Angeles. I also want to
talk about specifically how many of our ice agents have
been docks for doing their duty, how they have been targeted,
(14:35):
and how their families have been put in jepardy.
Speaker 2 (14:37):
Okay, that's what you saw on television if you were
watching any of the live coverage I assume on cable television.
And it was hard to see, hard to understand what
was going on because he was dressed in ordinary clothing.
He was not dressed in a suit and tie. He
wasn't wearing his little senate lapel pin that identifies us
(14:57):
senators and also Congressman that as well. Here's a version
of it from the press conference room inches away from Padia.
Padia's staff sent Alex Michaelson at Fox eleven this video,
and we've got the audio cut.
Speaker 1 (15:12):
Nine hands up.
Speaker 3 (15:19):
I'm Senator Alex.
Speaker 1 (15:20):
I have questions for the secretary.
Speaker 6 (15:23):
Because the fact of the matter is half a dozen
boling criminals that you're roth.
Speaker 7 (15:28):
Hitting on your.
Speaker 1 (15:36):
This is where he gets pushed out of the room.
Speaker 2 (15:37):
And he didn't identify himself till they already had grabbed
him and started dragging him away, pushing him away.
Speaker 8 (15:43):
You back.
Speaker 1 (15:46):
My hands, good, right behind my back, all right?
Speaker 4 (15:48):
Cool hand la platt lay clatt, other hands, other hand.
Speaker 1 (15:53):
He's got what four guys on him? Three guys on him.
Speaker 2 (15:58):
He claims he wasn't detained. Three guys and handcuffs. You're
you're flat out on the ground.
Speaker 1 (16:03):
He said, he wasn't arrested.
Speaker 2 (16:06):
Well, I'm calling that a detainment. I mean when I
got detained, yeah, by the by the uh the the
cops up in uh what was the name of stupid
town where Kndit was Modesto. Yes, that is a very
forgettable town. Uh. Yeah, when the Modesto cops detained me,
I was just sitting on a curb with my hands folded.
(16:27):
If you've got three guys on you and they're slapping
handcuffs on, that is at least a detainment. I was
getting close to an arrest there. Now he doesn't identify
himself until they're already on him. So he just started
making a ruckus and they you know, everybody's on edge.
It is all kinds of crazy people now in the streets,
and they figured, well on one got into uh into
(16:49):
Nomes press conference.
Speaker 1 (16:51):
He's doing a stunt. He wanted to do this.
Speaker 2 (16:55):
He would know as a senator that this is what
gonna happen, because if he was holding a press conference
inside a government building, inside a room, and some stranger
came in and started interrupting Padia, Padia knows his security
(17:15):
would tackle the guy and drag him out, especially if
he had no ID that was clearly visible and nobody
recognized him. So Padea knew this would happen. He willingly
wanted to be detained, to be shoved, tackled. This this
(17:36):
this was this was the gold star mission accomplished here
and he's a total phony. And then he gets comes
out of the sidewalk and acts all outraged. Oh but
to stop it you know what you're doing. You can't
interrupt the Department of Homeland Security really with with all
(17:57):
the violence going on in the streets because of your policies.
Remember he was president of the LA City Council. So
here's a guy who helped drive Los Angeles into the sore.
Of course he becomes a US senator. Now he wants
to interfere with the people who are trying to clean
(18:17):
the sore. And he's outraged that he was tackled. This
is what should happen to most of most of the politicians.
About all of them need a good tackling. All of
them need handcuff slapped on him. Garcetti should be handcuffed, detained,
and arrested for all the damage he's done. Good lord,
(18:40):
all right, we come back, all right. So we got
the also the crazy hearing in Washington. Three Democratic governors
had to explain why they have sanctuary states, why they
don't help enforce immigration law.
Speaker 4 (18:55):
You're listening to John Cobels on demand from KFI AMC.
Speaker 2 (19:01):
On every day from one until four after four o'clock
John Cobelt Show on demand on the iHeart app. You
may not know it, but we have another senator US
Senator Alex Padia. I think hardly anybody knows who he is,
which is maybe why this happened. I mean, there's a
(19:21):
lot of senators. If they walked into a room, your
head would snap and it's like, oh wow, look at that.
That's like Ted Kennedy came into a room, right, everybody
knew who Ted Kennedy was. But Alex Padilla really looks
like a guy who works for ups and he's got
no real presence. And somebody he barged into Christy Nomes
(19:42):
press conference today and he started shouting while NOA was speaking.
Nome security jumped to it, and he was moving towards Nome.
If you watch the videos over and over again again,
forget that he's a US senator because nobody in the
(20:02):
room knew he was a US senator. He just looks
like a crazy guy, a troublemaker. And in the context
of all the violence going on, I hear, I hear
this new pompous phrase, why he's a sitting US senator?
Newsom did this well, I can't believe a sitting president.
(20:24):
Karen Bass the other day said, I can't believe Trump
is threatening to rest a sitting governor. All of a sudden,
these people are sitting, and that's supposed to be some
kind of honorifics, some kind.
Speaker 1 (20:34):
Of they're sitting.
Speaker 2 (20:39):
They all should be standing up and helping the federal
government get all these violent illegal aliens out of here
and all these violent protesters out of here.
Speaker 1 (20:48):
That's what they ought to do. But this is this
is the new thing. Oh, I just can't believe it.
I've got the vapors.
Speaker 2 (20:55):
Imagine this threatning to rest a sitting governor, to take
a city US senator.
Speaker 1 (21:02):
Oh yeah, humanity him at all.
Speaker 2 (21:06):
No, he doesn't look like anybody. He just he's got
just a light blue casual you know, jacket on. It's
not a suit jacket. And he could have been he
could have been a security guard himself, or or he
could have been a guy with a gun. And if
(21:31):
he was holding the press conference, he would want his
security to do exactly that.
Speaker 1 (21:36):
You've got to arrest.
Speaker 2 (21:36):
You've got to wrestle him to the ground and then
check to see if he's got any weapons.
Speaker 1 (21:42):
That's what you have to do.
Speaker 2 (21:44):
He knows that he wanted this. It's gonna make him
a star. Nobody knew who Alex Padilla was all right.
His own family doesn't recognize him when he comes home.
He is the lowest profile imaginable. Now he's going to
be on cable news twenty four to seven, and I
see three guys handcuffing him and he's flat out on
(22:05):
the ground.
Speaker 1 (22:06):
He claims he wasn't detained. Play that I won't play.
Speaker 6 (22:10):
I had a question, and so I began to ask
a question. I was almost immediately forcibly removed from the room.
I was forced to the ground, and I was handcuffed.
I was not arrested. I was not detained.
Speaker 2 (22:31):
Okay, I'm watching right this second. He's completely flat on
the ground. One guy, one security officer, has a hand
on Padia's rear end. The other one has got a
hand on Padia's head. Third one is handcuffing his hands
behind his back. That looks pretty well.
Speaker 1 (22:51):
Detained to me. I don't know what what wouldn't be detained?
What else had to be done to make him detained? Well,
I guess because he was let go right away after
they realized that he was. We said he was don't
you know who I am? Well, that's what I would say.
Speaker 2 (23:08):
You don't look like a threat you never know. Yeah, so, uh,
that's that's the ruckus of the day. I also see
CNN says there's a mayor basque news conference coming out.
Speaker 1 (23:23):
Yes soon.
Speaker 2 (23:24):
All right, well we'll keep us to us, but well
we'll Hey, you helped me out a couple of times yesterday.
I'm just returning the favorite. This stuff is breaking on,
you know, five different screens all at once. It's exciting.
All right, let's go down to Washington, d C. Where
the US Senate was holding a hearing today to question
(23:46):
the New York Governor Kathy Hochel, the uh JB. Pritzker
that overfed Illinois governor, who, by the way, is a
billionaire Pritzker family. Yeah, they own one of the big
hotel chains, Hyatt Hollidayen one of those, I forget which one.
And then also the Minnesota governor that that hapless fool,
(24:09):
Tim Walls, who, let's see, I was trying to get
Kamala Harris elected. By the way, she can't possibly be
running for governor. She hasn't said anything about any of
the insanity all week.
Speaker 1 (24:25):
She doesn't care. She's in it for the celebrity. She
doesn't She's had no thoughts at all that I've.
Speaker 2 (24:31):
Seen, has not made any appearances, has not done any interviews,
made no statements. I've maybe she had a press release
line or two, but nothing substantive. All right, let's start
with let's see which one do I want here?
Speaker 1 (24:46):
All right?
Speaker 2 (24:46):
How let's start with Tim Walls, because I see him
and I laugh, and because he's such a dope and
he doesn't know that he's a dope. This is an
exchange between Congressman Tim Emmer, a Republican from Minnesota, questioning
Walls about Minnesota being a sanctuary state.
Speaker 9 (25:02):
You claim you're not a sanctuary state. You just provide
free health care, free college, and driver's licenses to illegal aliens.
One reason you're here testifying before US today is because
you refuse to cooperate with ICE. While states like Florida
and Virginia empower their law enforcement to detain and remove
criminal illegal aliens, you, sir, have done just the opposite.
(25:24):
Your Attorney General is directing law enforcement to ignore ICE
immigration detainers. Do you agree with the Attorney General's guidance?
Speaker 10 (25:34):
Well, Congressman, it's good to see you again, and thank
you for being here. First, I would say it's my
job as governor of Minnesota is to make Minnesota the
best state.
Speaker 9 (25:40):
Now, do you agree with the Attorney General's guidance, Congressman.
Speaker 10 (25:45):
What I would say on this is is that Minnesota
follows all law.
Speaker 3 (25:48):
Either.
Speaker 1 (25:48):
It's a very easy question. If you're not.
Speaker 9 (25:51):
If you claim you're not a sanctuary state, you just
I guess you just claim that you support policies. You're
not a sanctuary state, but you support policies that prevent
ice from doing their job.
Speaker 1 (26:03):
Congressman, isn't that right? That is incorrect.
Speaker 10 (26:05):
Congressman, we fall the same laws when while we're in
the Minnesota House, the law is not changed.
Speaker 1 (26:09):
If you'll allow me, I've got limited time.
Speaker 9 (26:11):
Well, that's what you tweeted, by the way, sir, on
May twenty third, twenty eighteen, you tweeted, quote, I support
policies that keep law enforcement from enforcing federal laws.
Speaker 1 (26:22):
Close quote.
Speaker 2 (26:27):
That's right, federal law doesn't matter in Minnesota. Minnesota is
not really one of the fifty states. Looks like it
looks like, just counting by the guests today that they
had at this hearing, there's only forty seven states. New
York is not part of the United States. California is
not part of the United States, Minnesota is not. Oh
and here's another one. The they had the governor of Illinois,
(26:51):
that's Pritzkert, So we have forty six states.
Speaker 1 (26:54):
I guess now do they not see this?
Speaker 2 (26:57):
I'm saying they are not only choosing to not follow
federal law, they interfere with the Feds enforcing the law.
That's what's been going on all week here in Los Angeles. Here,
it's even worse because these are private groups financed with
(27:18):
your tax money, aiding and abetting illegal aliens. I hope
there are mass arrests at all these nonprofit groups because
it looks like these groups only exist to defy federal law,
to aid and a bet illegal aliens, to harbor illegal aliens.
I hope they all get charged with felonies. They should
(27:40):
all go to federal prison. This is what has to
be done to clean up this mess. And then this
is crazy, and I hope Trump declares an insurrection. Just
do a federal takeover this cesspool. This sore. More coming up.
Speaker 1 (27:56):
I got another clip to play when we come back
of over Fed Pritzker.
Speaker 4 (28:00):
You're listening to John Cobels on demand from KFI am sixty.
Speaker 2 (28:06):
Have I mentioned the moist line eight seven seven moist
Dady six eight seven seven moist eighty six of the
talkback feature.
Speaker 1 (28:12):
On the iHeart app. And tomorrow is the day.
Speaker 2 (28:14):
So if you've got something to say and you want
to get it aired, you've better call now because we
are already preparing tomorrow's tomorrow's feature presentation.
Speaker 1 (28:25):
All right, we continue.
Speaker 2 (28:28):
With playing you some clips of the Oversight Committee in
h in Congress today, looking at three governors from sanctuary
city states. Tim Walltz, the dope from Minnesota, Kathy Hokel,
the governor of New York. She's the one who replaced
the pervert Andrew Cuomo. And then and then the third governor,
(28:51):
the wildly overfed JB. Pritzker, the billionaire. Do you remember
you remember as a kid when mc donald's would have
a sign like over one billion burger served. And I
used to get excited because then you know, after a
year or two over two billion served.
Speaker 1 (29:09):
Oh that excited you? Yeah, I did.
Speaker 2 (29:12):
I kept wondering, like and then when they got to ten,
they stopped because they only had a room for one
digit on the side.
Speaker 1 (29:18):
You were easily amused, John, Where I grew up. Didn't
that you're in entertainment. So anyway, just JB. Pritzker. I'm
thinking it looks like he was served about a billion burger.
No fat shaming, John. All right, let's go to number three.
Speaker 2 (29:38):
This is Congresswoman A Last Stefonica, Republican who might run
for governor in New York, and she's going after Kathy
Hokel about illegal aliens.
Speaker 1 (29:47):
Do you know who secure a con is?
Speaker 7 (29:50):
I want to get back to the first.
Speaker 1 (29:51):
I'm asking you a question.
Speaker 8 (29:52):
Do you know who secure a con is?
Speaker 7 (29:54):
I want to make sure you understand that this simply
says that we will cooperate with ICE, does.
Speaker 1 (30:00):
Not say that.
Speaker 8 (30:00):
I read what it says, and let me talk to
you about the results. Do you know who secure a
con is? You should as the governor of New York State?
Speaker 7 (30:07):
Do you know refresh my recollection?
Speaker 8 (30:10):
He was an illegal migrant in New York and do
you know what crime he committed in addition to being
here legally?
Speaker 9 (30:15):
No?
Speaker 1 (30:16):
I do not, you do not.
Speaker 8 (30:17):
This was widely reported. He found a fifteen year old girl,
threatened her with a metal pull, told her to get
into the back seat of his car. He took her
clothes off and he violently raped her in Albany, New York.
Do you know who Sebastian Zuppeeda Khalil is.
Speaker 7 (30:33):
I'm sure you'll tell me. There's many cases, whether there's.
Speaker 8 (30:35):
These are high profile cases. New Yorkers know about them
and you don't. So let's talk about Sebastian Zubpeda Khalil.
Speaker 1 (30:42):
Do you know who that is?
Speaker 7 (30:44):
I don't have those specific details at my disposal.
Speaker 8 (30:46):
Now, well, this is an illegal migrant in New York
because of your sanctuary state policies. Do you know what
crime he committed?
Speaker 7 (30:53):
I'm not familiar at this moment.
Speaker 8 (30:55):
I bet you're going to be familiar when I remind
you he found a sleeping woman on this subway, lit
her on fire, and burned her alive. This is in
Kathy Hochel's New York and as I'm sure you are aware,
and I'll remind you that ICE issued an order to
detain this violent criminal, but that was rejected by New
York officials due to sanctuary state laws. Now do you
(31:18):
know who Raymond Rojas Basilio is.
Speaker 7 (31:20):
I just want to say this, These crimes are horrific
because of door, because of your sanctuary state policy. In
all of these cases, we would work with ice to rea.
Speaker 1 (31:30):
You did not in this case.
Speaker 8 (31:32):
They are on the streets because of your policies, in
your executive order that you signed three times.
Speaker 1 (31:38):
Oh my goodness, I'm about to fate. I mean, that
is great. That is the way they should be treated.
Speaker 2 (31:48):
Backed into a corner and she just just relentlessly kept
pummeling Kathy Hokel and at least a fanic.
Speaker 1 (31:56):
That is absolutely the way you deal with these people.
Speaker 2 (32:00):
Kathy Hochel did have a sanctuary policy and it directly
led to that poor woman being burned alive on that subway.
It is Kathy Hochel's fault. She should be in prison
the way he knews in Bassa to be in prison.
For all the victims of all the crimes from illegal
aliens that were spun through the system because of sanctuary
(32:22):
state and sanctuary city policies.
Speaker 1 (32:24):
These are the.
Speaker 2 (32:24):
People should be shamed and hounded for the rest of
their lives. Of course, Kathy Hokel doesn't remember the name.
I'm sure she did, because I read New York papers
every day, and that was a sensational case. It was
one of the most heinous cases imaginable and if I
remember Kathy Hochel like it made some kind of mistimed
(32:49):
statement that got her a lot of grief for what happened.
I think she was actually trumpeting public transportation on the
same day that this woman was set on fire something
like that, so she knows who it is. You see
how embarrassed they are when you actually say it out
loud in front of an audience, right to their face.
(33:13):
I'm sure you're gonna tell me, no, I don't remember, Okay,
refresh my memory. They're all smugg and arrogant, right. I
don't know how they enforced the sanctuary state and city policies.
They know that this goes on, and if they were
proud of it, you wouldn't see somebody like Kathy Hulk.
(33:34):
She's embarrassed. She ought to be embarrassed. She ought to
be more than embarrassed. They should be hounded out of office.
She ought to be tackled and handcuffed like Alex Padilla was. God,
They've done so much damage, They've cost so much suffering.
I've got more from this press conference too, because all
(33:55):
three of these knuckleheads, Waltz and Hoko and Pritzker were
asked what they would do if Tom Holman came to
their door to arrest them. If only that would happen.
Deborah Mark live in the KFI twenty four hour Newsroom. Hey,
you've been listening to The John Covelt Show podcast. You
can always hear the show live on KFI Am six
(34:15):
forty from one to four pm every Monday through Friday,
and of course, anytime on demand on the iHeartRadio app
Can't. I am six forty.
Speaker 2 (00:02):
You're listening to the John Cobel podcast on the iHeartRadio app.
Speaker 1 (00:06):
Welcome to the program.
Speaker 2 (00:07):
We are on every day from one until four o'clock,
and then every day as a public service, we offer
you the podcast. It's the same as the radio show.
This way, if you miss anything, you can listen to
it later on in the day, or tomorrow, or whenever
you have a chance. There is a tremendous amount going on.
People in public office are literally just losing their minds.
(00:32):
We are going to be covering the California Senator Alex Paedia.
Kind of a dud senator. You don't hear about it much.
He used to be the city council president in La
so he helped ruin La years ago, and of course
he gets promoted to be senator by California voters. Well,
he showed up at the Homeland Secretary Christy Nomes press
(00:54):
conference today with it didn't identify himself, it didn't have
this little senate pin on, so people knew who he was,
and he just started blurting out comments or questions, and
so Nome's security grabbed him and wrestled him and then
took him down to the ground and and alex Pidia
(01:16):
was handcuffed. So I'm watching video now because every few
minutes they have another angle. So now I got a
video on CNN showing sewing Padilla actually splayed on the
ground with about four agents handcuffing him. And yeah, you
can't tell from the way he's acting in nomes press
(01:39):
conference who he is, Like he's not dressed in a suit,
and he has no identification on him. He doesn't say
who he is until they've already grabbed him. So I
guess they instinctively thought he was a security risk. Uh,
we'll cover that. You have in Congress. You've got three
demic credit governors getting grilled today over being sanctuary states.
(02:07):
We've got more, we've got more demonstrations, We've got more
raids going on, and you know, this is ground zero
for all the insanity. In half an hour, and this
is most important, Actually, in about twenty minutes, they're supposed
to be a hearing one thirty Pacific time Federal District
(02:27):
Court judge in San Francisco, we'll be hearing arguments in
the lawsuit that Gavin Newsom has filed against Donald Trump.
This is Trump taking over four thousand National Guard troops
and having them deployed here in the Los Angeles area,
also sending in seven hundred marines. Newsom on behalf of
(02:48):
the state wants a temporary restraining order that would limit
the troops to guard federal buildings in Los Angeles with
no other responsibilities. Mostly that's what they're doing. There's a
few National Guard troops have started accompanying the ICE agents
during the raids. This week, We're going to go to
(03:08):
ABC legal analyst Royal Oaks as we await in.
Speaker 1 (03:13):
About twenty minutes the start of the hearing, Royal, how
are you.
Speaker 3 (03:17):
I'm doing great, John, Yeah, A lot going on todays.
Speaker 2 (03:19):
Just say, the judge in this case is what's his name, Briar,
Charles Bryer, right, right, And he's the brother of a
former Supreme Court justice.
Speaker 3 (03:32):
And yeah, Stephen Bryer.
Speaker 1 (03:33):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (03:33):
And so Charles Bryer is going to decide this. How
quickly do you think he will make a decision? Is
this something that's instantaneous or is this something we're going
to hear about in a week.
Speaker 3 (03:44):
He probably is going to decide either during the hearing
that will go probably from one thirty to two thirty
or very shortly thereafter, maybe later today, maybe tomorrow morning.
And that's because you know, this has sort of the
earmarks of an emergency. You know, the troops are rolling
around loss and either they have a legal right to
be there or they don't. And so you know, it
(04:04):
wouldn't make much a sense for him to sit on
it for a week or a month. But you know,
as you've been reporting, I mean, this all got kicked
off a few days ago when Newsoman or a bout
the filed a lawsuit and it said, hey, federal judge,
Trump has no legal right to send troops. You know,
we've got a principle in America here the cops enforced law,
not the military. You know, that's what happens in Banana republics.
(04:27):
And also, you know, look at the law. You've got
to have the governor's approval. He has to invite you
into the state. And Trump certainly didn't get Newsom's approval.
And you know, Trump has an answer to this stuff.
Trump says, now, look look more carefully at the law.
It just says we have to let the governor know
what we're up to. Doesn't mean that he has veto power.
And by the way, you know, you can say this
(04:48):
isn't a rebellion or an invasion by some foreign country,
but it's a big deal. It really is a threat
to public safety. And you know, they're destroying federal property.
They're taking chunks of rocks and concrete, throwing it, and
the cops just haven't been able to handle them. In
our LAPD chief just said the other day, you know
this is you know what, we're not able to handle this,
so too healthy different, healthy difference of opinion. And you
(05:11):
know this judge, some people are assuming, well, you know,
he's a Democrat appointee, as are all fourteen of the
federal judges in San Francisco. They're all appointed by Democrat presidents.
So people assume.
Speaker 2 (05:22):
The Republicans tend to have an administration about half the time,
it goes back and forth. How did the Republicans never
get an opening all these years in the San Francisco area.
Speaker 3 (05:34):
Yeah, it's because that these senators are given a sort
of veto power over the appointment of federal judges by
the president. It's an informal thing, and Trump doesn't always followed.
The other thing is, you know, John judges know that
if they retire, they know the current president is going
to be able to replace them. And it's not just
democrat or appointed judges that do this, but there are
(05:56):
so many Democrats appointed judges up in San Francisco. They
don't want to They want to hang in until somebody
they like can appoint them. So I think that's why
it's fourteen to zip.
Speaker 2 (06:07):
So the way I read the law and the way
other analysts read the law, and I'm not a legal scholar,
or you're much more inclined to be called the legal
scholar than I am. It doesn't say that the president
cannot do this. It doesn't say that a governor has
veto power just looking at the exact language. Do judges
(06:32):
look at the exact language? Or do judges have biases
where they start seeing things that aren't there and twisting
words in a way that's beneficial to their opinion.
Speaker 1 (06:43):
What do they really do?
Speaker 3 (06:45):
Yeah, well, first of all, you're absolutely right on your
last point. I mean, let's be real here, in most
high profile cases that have sort of political, social, culture
war implications, you can just go to the bank and
bet that a judge is going to rule the way
the president who appointed him or her would like them
to rule it it's wrong. I mean, you know, let's
(07:06):
fay sical. Judges make decisions. Lives are in the balance.
You know, people's lives can be destroyed financially or literally
based on judge's decisions. But so often you can just
predict how they come out. So that's that's the bad news.
The good news is, yeah, they do look at the law.
There's job is to try to hear the facts and
look at the law and say who should win. Sometimes
the law can be ambiguous. Right here. For example, it
(07:27):
says you will send in the troops through the governor. Well,
Newsom says that means I get to veto it. Trump says, no,
I just have to keep you posted. Well, what does
it really mean? You could look at legislative history where
the committees in Congress talked about it, do whatever. You
can look at other cases that have construed the language.
End of the day, Judge Charles Bryer is going to
make a call, probably later today, is whether Newsom or
(07:50):
Trump is right and in a way Trump is going
to win either way because you know, as we you
and I have talked about if Trump gets the right
to send the troops in. You know, you be I win.
We're going to keep order. If the judge says, sendra
marine's home, Powell, then Trump gets to say to the nation, well,
elections have consequences. You better vote Republican. Get a bunch
of good judges appointed, because this guy is letting people
(08:11):
die on the streets of Los Angeles. So it's going
to be a dramatic hearing in COURTUS afternoon.
Speaker 2 (08:17):
You know, the way I always looked at the National Guard,
I always looked at them as a subset of the
military given over to the States to deploy when there's
a local disaster of some kind, right, whether it's criminal
or natural disaster. But they really are part of the military.
And the president, whoever he is, is still the commander
(08:38):
in chief, and it seems like the National Guard would
be included under his domain. Is that a crazy thought?
Speaker 3 (08:45):
No, you're absolutely right, and you put your finger on
a key reason why Trump may just win this afternoon.
The president has a lot of discretion, you know, not
only with foreign policy but also immigration and this business
of you know, when the federal government should be able
to send in troops. Now you can say I hate
the idea that's how you know things go on in
Banana Republic. It's first step toward dictatorship. But I think
(09:07):
this judge may well say, look, I got to respect
the discretion of the President of the United States, especially
if what he's doing is limited to protecting federal property
and protecting federal employees, because I think this judge knows
there's going to be a real firestorm of protest across
the country. If a single federal judge says, you know,
you're seven hundred to you know, marine guys, you go
(09:28):
back to Washington.
Speaker 2 (09:30):
And ice officers or federal employees. So if they decide
those those federal employees, the ice officers need protection, well,
then of course you might have to turn to the
National Guard. Now there are obviously many other law enforcement
units in the federal government, but I just don't see
how a governor gets to overrule a president on the
(09:53):
use of military people.
Speaker 3 (09:56):
Yeah, well, I think you're right. And you know, even
though in general you can predict how a judge might
rule looking at who appointed him, I in this case,
you know Trump Trump might be pleased by this outcome.
One quick little inside the baseball thing. Trump's lawyers filed
a brief they had less than a day. Noticed. They
filed it yesterday at eleven am. And they did it
so quickly they didn't have time to include two chunks
(10:18):
of the brief, a list of all your cases, and
a listed table of contents. And it's funny because you know,
having filed so many briefs, you've got to pre press
send by the exact day. It's the moment it's due
or else. So somebody can get yelled at because Trump's
brief didn't have all the little uh, didn't cross the
t's and dot the eyes, but he got the substance
in the right. You know, his position is, you know,
(10:39):
I've got discretion. I want to save lives, So judge,
let me do my thing.
Speaker 2 (10:45):
All right, Well, we'll talk with you again, maybe soon,
depending on how quickly the judge may makes the decision.
Royal Oaks, ABC News legal analyst, And in about fifteen
minutes or less, Charles Bryer, Federal District Court judge in
San Francisco, will hear arguments in the lawsuit that Newsom
has brought against Trump over who gets to control the
(11:07):
National Guard here in California.
Speaker 1 (11:09):
More coming up.
Speaker 4 (11:11):
You're listening to John Cobelt on demand from KFI AM
six forty.
Speaker 2 (11:17):
I AM six forty more stimulating talk radio, and that
hearing is supposed to start if they're on schedule, in
about six and a half minutes. And that's Judge Charles
Bryer in San Francisco, appointed by Bill Clinton in nineteen
ninety seven. It's a federal district court. This is the
(11:38):
first tier of federal courts, and then it can go
on to the Court of Appeals and then finally the
Supreme Court. So Newsom wants a temporary restraining order that
keeps the National Guard and the Marines to guarding federal
buildings with no other responsibilities. Largely that's what they're doing.
There's been a few National Guard troops that have companied
(12:00):
ICE agents during immigration raids. But if the idea is
to protect federal employees and to protect federal property, federal buildings,
then if you have ICE agents out on the loose there,
they need protection too, because look at the kind of
assaults that are happening. There have been a number of
assaults on ICE agents by these fanatical protesters. And God,
(12:22):
I've got a lot to say about the whole illegal
alien protection industry that developed over the last twenty years,
and you financed a lot of it with your taxes.
We talked about it extensively, Churler being the number one
example here in Los Angeles, and I could tell reading
the quotes here, they're all scared because.
Speaker 1 (12:42):
They know what they've been doing.
Speaker 2 (12:44):
They've been spending money, and they've been involved in activities
that aid and a bet illegal aliens and all that's
against the law. And now they're getting investigated every which
way by the US Attorney's Office, by a Senate committee,
and they're gonna shore. We're going to shake all these nonprofits,
these non governmental organizations, and we're going to find out
(13:06):
just exactly how they've been protecting in many cases violent
illegal aliens for years and spending our tax money to
boot on it.
Speaker 1 (13:16):
It's not an insignificant amount.
Speaker 2 (13:18):
This is a major, major scandal that really was allowed
to take root and build a lot of infrastructure here
in California. And I'm glad the whole thing is finally
getting blown up now onto this insanity. Department of Homeland Security.
Christy Nome, she's the secretary. She had a press conference today.
She's in La to oversee the entire operation, and Senator
(13:44):
Alex Paedia walked into the briefing room and interrupted Gnome.
It looks like security didn't know who he was, and
they grabbed him and pushed him back, eventually dragged him
outside and wrestled him to the I've seen a number
of video angles.
Speaker 1 (14:03):
Here's what it sounded like. Let's start with cut number eight.
Speaker 3 (14:07):
The city.
Speaker 5 (14:08):
So I want to say thank you to every single
person that has been able.
Speaker 4 (14:13):
To do this.
Speaker 5 (14:14):
Also, I want to talk specifically to the rioters and
to the politicians in Los Angeles. I also want to
talk about specifically how many of our ice agents have
been docks for doing their duty, how they have been targeted,
(14:35):
and how their families have been put in jepardy.
Speaker 2 (14:37):
Okay, that's what you saw on television if you were
watching any of the live coverage I assume on cable television.
And it was hard to see, hard to understand what
was going on because he was dressed in ordinary clothing.
He was not dressed in a suit and tie. He
wasn't wearing his little senate lapel pin that identifies us
(14:57):
senators and also Congressman that as well. Here's a version
of it from the press conference room inches away from Padia.
Padia's staff sent Alex Michaelson at Fox eleven this video,
and we've got the audio cut.
Speaker 1 (15:12):
Nine hands up.
Speaker 3 (15:19):
I'm Senator Alex.
Speaker 1 (15:20):
I have questions for the secretary.
Speaker 6 (15:23):
Because the fact of the matter is half a dozen
boling criminals that you're roth.
Speaker 7 (15:28):
Hitting on your.
Speaker 1 (15:36):
This is where he gets pushed out of the room.
Speaker 2 (15:37):
And he didn't identify himself till they already had grabbed
him and started dragging him away, pushing him away.
Speaker 8 (15:43):
You back.
Speaker 1 (15:46):
My hands, good, right behind my back, all right?
Speaker 4 (15:48):
Cool hand la platt lay clatt, other hands, other hand.
Speaker 1 (15:53):
He's got what four guys on him? Three guys on him.
Speaker 2 (15:58):
He claims he wasn't detained. Three guys and handcuffs. You're
you're flat out on the ground.
Speaker 1 (16:03):
He said, he wasn't arrested.
Speaker 2 (16:06):
Well, I'm calling that a detainment. I mean when I
got detained, yeah, by the by the uh the the
cops up in uh what was the name of stupid
town where Kndit was Modesto. Yes, that is a very
forgettable town. Uh. Yeah, when the Modesto cops detained me,
I was just sitting on a curb with my hands folded.
(16:27):
If you've got three guys on you and they're slapping
handcuffs on, that is at least a detainment. I was
getting close to an arrest there. Now he doesn't identify
himself until they're already on him. So he just started
making a ruckus and they you know, everybody's on edge.
It is all kinds of crazy people now in the streets,
and they figured, well on one got into uh into
(16:49):
Nomes press conference.
Speaker 1 (16:51):
He's doing a stunt. He wanted to do this.
Speaker 2 (16:55):
He would know as a senator that this is what
gonna happen, because if he was holding a press conference
inside a government building, inside a room, and some stranger
came in and started interrupting Padia, Padia knows his security
(17:15):
would tackle the guy and drag him out, especially if
he had no ID that was clearly visible and nobody
recognized him. So Padea knew this would happen. He willingly
wanted to be detained, to be shoved, tackled. This this
(17:36):
this was this was the gold star mission accomplished here
and he's a total phony. And then he gets comes
out of the sidewalk and acts all outraged. Oh but
to stop it you know what you're doing. You can't
interrupt the Department of Homeland Security really with with all
(17:57):
the violence going on in the streets because of your policies.
Remember he was president of the LA City Council. So
here's a guy who helped drive Los Angeles into the sore.
Of course he becomes a US senator. Now he wants
to interfere with the people who are trying to clean
(18:17):
the sore. And he's outraged that he was tackled. This
is what should happen to most of most of the politicians.
About all of them need a good tackling. All of
them need handcuff slapped on him. Garcetti should be handcuffed, detained,
and arrested for all the damage he's done. Good lord,
(18:40):
all right, we come back, all right. So we got
the also the crazy hearing in Washington. Three Democratic governors
had to explain why they have sanctuary states, why they
don't help enforce immigration law.
Speaker 4 (18:55):
You're listening to John Cobels on demand from KFI AMC.
Speaker 2 (19:01):
On every day from one until four after four o'clock
John Cobelt Show on demand on the iHeart app. You
may not know it, but we have another senator US
Senator Alex Padia. I think hardly anybody knows who he is,
which is maybe why this happened. I mean, there's a
(19:21):
lot of senators. If they walked into a room, your
head would snap and it's like, oh wow, look at that.
That's like Ted Kennedy came into a room, right, everybody
knew who Ted Kennedy was. But Alex Padilla really looks
like a guy who works for ups and he's got
no real presence. And somebody he barged into Christy Nomes
(19:42):
press conference today and he started shouting while NOA was speaking.
Nome security jumped to it, and he was moving towards Nome.
If you watch the videos over and over again again,
forget that he's a US senator because nobody in the
(20:02):
room knew he was a US senator. He just looks
like a crazy guy, a troublemaker. And in the context
of all the violence going on, I hear, I hear
this new pompous phrase, why he's a sitting US senator?
Newsom did this well, I can't believe a sitting president.
(20:24):
Karen Bass the other day said, I can't believe Trump
is threatening to rest a sitting governor. All of a sudden,
these people are sitting, and that's supposed to be some
kind of honorifics, some kind.
Speaker 1 (20:34):
Of they're sitting.
Speaker 2 (20:39):
They all should be standing up and helping the federal
government get all these violent illegal aliens out of here
and all these violent protesters out of here.
Speaker 1 (20:48):
That's what they ought to do. But this is this
is the new thing. Oh, I just can't believe it.
I've got the vapors.
Speaker 2 (20:55):
Imagine this threatning to rest a sitting governor, to take
a city US senator.
Speaker 1 (21:02):
Oh yeah, humanity him at all.
Speaker 2 (21:06):
No, he doesn't look like anybody. He just he's got
just a light blue casual you know, jacket on. It's
not a suit jacket. And he could have been he
could have been a security guard himself, or or he
could have been a guy with a gun. And if
(21:31):
he was holding the press conference, he would want his
security to do exactly that.
Speaker 1 (21:36):
You've got to arrest.
Speaker 2 (21:36):
You've got to wrestle him to the ground and then
check to see if he's got any weapons.
Speaker 1 (21:42):
That's what you have to do.
Speaker 2 (21:44):
He knows that he wanted this. It's gonna make him
a star. Nobody knew who Alex Padilla was all right.
His own family doesn't recognize him when he comes home.
He is the lowest profile imaginable. Now he's going to
be on cable news twenty four to seven, and I
see three guys handcuffing him and he's flat out on
(22:05):
the ground.
Speaker 1 (22:06):
He claims he wasn't detained. Play that I won't play.
Speaker 6 (22:10):
I had a question, and so I began to ask
a question. I was almost immediately forcibly removed from the room.
I was forced to the ground, and I was handcuffed.
I was not arrested. I was not detained.
Speaker 2 (22:31):
Okay, I'm watching right this second. He's completely flat on
the ground. One guy, one security officer, has a hand
on Padia's rear end. The other one has got a
hand on Padia's head. Third one is handcuffing his hands
behind his back. That looks pretty well.
Speaker 1 (22:51):
Detained to me. I don't know what what wouldn't be detained?
What else had to be done to make him detained? Well,
I guess because he was let go right away after
they realized that he was. We said he was don't
you know who I am? Well, that's what I would say.
Speaker 2 (23:08):
You don't look like a threat you never know. Yeah, so, uh,
that's that's the ruckus of the day. I also see
CNN says there's a mayor basque news conference coming out.
Speaker 1 (23:23):
Yes soon.
Speaker 2 (23:24):
All right, well we'll keep us to us, but well
we'll Hey, you helped me out a couple of times yesterday.
I'm just returning the favorite. This stuff is breaking on,
you know, five different screens all at once. It's exciting.
All right, let's go down to Washington, d C. Where
the US Senate was holding a hearing today to question
(23:46):
the New York Governor Kathy Hochel, the uh JB. Pritzker
that overfed Illinois governor, who, by the way, is a
billionaire Pritzker family. Yeah, they own one of the big
hotel chains, Hyatt Hollidayen one of those, I forget which one.
And then also the Minnesota governor that that hapless fool,
(24:09):
Tim Walls, who, let's see, I was trying to get
Kamala Harris elected. By the way, she can't possibly be
running for governor. She hasn't said anything about any of
the insanity all week.
Speaker 1 (24:25):
She doesn't care. She's in it for the celebrity. She
doesn't She's had no thoughts at all that I've.
Speaker 2 (24:31):
Seen, has not made any appearances, has not done any interviews,
made no statements. I've maybe she had a press release
line or two, but nothing substantive. All right, let's start
with let's see which one do I want here?
Speaker 1 (24:46):
All right?
Speaker 2 (24:46):
How let's start with Tim Walls, because I see him
and I laugh, and because he's such a dope and
he doesn't know that he's a dope. This is an
exchange between Congressman Tim Emmer, a Republican from Minnesota, questioning
Walls about Minnesota being a sanctuary state.
Speaker 9 (25:02):
You claim you're not a sanctuary state. You just provide
free health care, free college, and driver's licenses to illegal aliens.
One reason you're here testifying before US today is because
you refuse to cooperate with ICE. While states like Florida
and Virginia empower their law enforcement to detain and remove
criminal illegal aliens, you, sir, have done just the opposite.
(25:24):
Your Attorney General is directing law enforcement to ignore ICE
immigration detainers. Do you agree with the Attorney General's guidance?
Speaker 10 (25:34):
Well, Congressman, it's good to see you again, and thank
you for being here. First, I would say it's my
job as governor of Minnesota is to make Minnesota the
best state.
Speaker 9 (25:40):
Now, do you agree with the Attorney General's guidance, Congressman.
Speaker 10 (25:45):
What I would say on this is is that Minnesota
follows all law.
Speaker 3 (25:48):
Either.
Speaker 1 (25:48):
It's a very easy question. If you're not.
Speaker 9 (25:51):
If you claim you're not a sanctuary state, you just
I guess you just claim that you support policies. You're
not a sanctuary state, but you support policies that prevent
ice from doing their job.
Speaker 1 (26:03):
Congressman, isn't that right? That is incorrect.
Speaker 10 (26:05):
Congressman, we fall the same laws when while we're in
the Minnesota House, the law is not changed.
Speaker 1 (26:09):
If you'll allow me, I've got limited time.
Speaker 9 (26:11):
Well, that's what you tweeted, by the way, sir, on
May twenty third, twenty eighteen, you tweeted, quote, I support
policies that keep law enforcement from enforcing federal laws.
Speaker 1 (26:22):
Close quote.
Speaker 2 (26:27):
That's right, federal law doesn't matter in Minnesota. Minnesota is
not really one of the fifty states. Looks like it
looks like, just counting by the guests today that they
had at this hearing, there's only forty seven states. New
York is not part of the United States. California is
not part of the United States, Minnesota is not. Oh
and here's another one. The they had the governor of Illinois,
(26:51):
that's Pritzkert, So we have forty six states.
Speaker 1 (26:54):
I guess now do they not see this?
Speaker 2 (26:57):
I'm saying they are not only choosing to not follow
federal law, they interfere with the Feds enforcing the law.
That's what's been going on all week here in Los Angeles. Here,
it's even worse because these are private groups financed with
(27:18):
your tax money, aiding and abetting illegal aliens. I hope
there are mass arrests at all these nonprofit groups because
it looks like these groups only exist to defy federal law,
to aid and a bet illegal aliens, to harbor illegal aliens.
I hope they all get charged with felonies. They should
(27:40):
all go to federal prison. This is what has to
be done to clean up this mess. And then this
is crazy, and I hope Trump declares an insurrection. Just
do a federal takeover this cesspool. This sore. More coming up.
Speaker 1 (27:56):
I got another clip to play when we come back
of over Fed Pritzker.
Speaker 4 (28:00):
You're listening to John Cobels on demand from KFI am sixty.
Speaker 2 (28:06):
Have I mentioned the moist line eight seven seven moist
Dady six eight seven seven moist eighty six of the
talkback feature.
Speaker 1 (28:12):
On the iHeart app. And tomorrow is the day.
Speaker 2 (28:14):
So if you've got something to say and you want
to get it aired, you've better call now because we
are already preparing tomorrow's tomorrow's feature presentation.
Speaker 1 (28:25):
All right, we continue.
Speaker 2 (28:28):
With playing you some clips of the Oversight Committee in
h in Congress today, looking at three governors from sanctuary
city states. Tim Walltz, the dope from Minnesota, Kathy Hokel,
the governor of New York. She's the one who replaced
the pervert Andrew Cuomo. And then and then the third governor,
(28:51):
the wildly overfed JB. Pritzker, the billionaire. Do you remember
you remember as a kid when mc donald's would have
a sign like over one billion burger served. And I
used to get excited because then you know, after a
year or two over two billion served.
Speaker 1 (29:09):
Oh that excited you? Yeah, I did.
Speaker 2 (29:12):
I kept wondering, like and then when they got to ten,
they stopped because they only had a room for one
digit on the side.
Speaker 1 (29:18):
You were easily amused, John, Where I grew up. Didn't
that you're in entertainment. So anyway, just JB. Pritzker. I'm
thinking it looks like he was served about a billion burger.
No fat shaming, John. All right, let's go to number three.
Speaker 2 (29:38):
This is Congresswoman A Last Stefonica, Republican who might run
for governor in New York, and she's going after Kathy
Hokel about illegal aliens.
Speaker 1 (29:47):
Do you know who secure a con is?
Speaker 7 (29:50):
I want to get back to the first.
Speaker 1 (29:51):
I'm asking you a question.
Speaker 8 (29:52):
Do you know who secure a con is?
Speaker 7 (29:54):
I want to make sure you understand that this simply
says that we will cooperate with ICE, does.
Speaker 1 (30:00):
Not say that.
Speaker 8 (30:00):
I read what it says, and let me talk to
you about the results. Do you know who secure a
con is? You should as the governor of New York State?
Speaker 7 (30:07):
Do you know refresh my recollection?
Speaker 8 (30:10):
He was an illegal migrant in New York and do
you know what crime he committed in addition to being
here legally?
Speaker 9 (30:15):
No?
Speaker 1 (30:16):
I do not, you do not.
Speaker 8 (30:17):
This was widely reported. He found a fifteen year old girl,
threatened her with a metal pull, told her to get
into the back seat of his car. He took her
clothes off and he violently raped her in Albany, New York.
Do you know who Sebastian Zuppeeda Khalil is.
Speaker 7 (30:33):
I'm sure you'll tell me. There's many cases, whether there's.
Speaker 8 (30:35):
These are high profile cases. New Yorkers know about them
and you don't. So let's talk about Sebastian Zubpeda Khalil.
Speaker 1 (30:42):
Do you know who that is?
Speaker 7 (30:44):
I don't have those specific details at my disposal.
Speaker 8 (30:46):
Now, well, this is an illegal migrant in New York
because of your sanctuary state policies. Do you know what
crime he committed?
Speaker 7 (30:53):
I'm not familiar at this moment.
Speaker 8 (30:55):
I bet you're going to be familiar when I remind
you he found a sleeping woman on this subway, lit
her on fire, and burned her alive. This is in
Kathy Hochel's New York and as I'm sure you are aware,
and I'll remind you that ICE issued an order to
detain this violent criminal, but that was rejected by New
York officials due to sanctuary state laws. Now do you
(31:18):
know who Raymond Rojas Basilio is.
Speaker 7 (31:20):
I just want to say this, These crimes are horrific
because of door, because of your sanctuary state policy. In
all of these cases, we would work with ice to rea.
Speaker 1 (31:30):
You did not in this case.
Speaker 8 (31:32):
They are on the streets because of your policies, in
your executive order that you signed three times.
Speaker 1 (31:38):
Oh my goodness, I'm about to fate. I mean, that
is great. That is the way they should be treated.
Speaker 2 (31:48):
Backed into a corner and she just just relentlessly kept
pummeling Kathy Hokel and at least a fanic.
Speaker 1 (31:56):
That is absolutely the way you deal with these people.
Speaker 2 (32:00):
Kathy Hochel did have a sanctuary policy and it directly
led to that poor woman being burned alive on that subway.
It is Kathy Hochel's fault. She should be in prison
the way he knews in Bassa to be in prison.
For all the victims of all the crimes from illegal
aliens that were spun through the system because of sanctuary
(32:22):
state and sanctuary city policies.
Speaker 1 (32:24):
These are the.
Speaker 2 (32:24):
People should be shamed and hounded for the rest of
their lives. Of course, Kathy Hokel doesn't remember the name.
I'm sure she did, because I read New York papers
every day, and that was a sensational case. It was
one of the most heinous cases imaginable and if I
remember Kathy Hochel like it made some kind of mistimed
(32:49):
statement that got her a lot of grief for what happened.
I think she was actually trumpeting public transportation on the
same day that this woman was set on fire something
like that, so she knows who it is. You see
how embarrassed they are when you actually say it out
loud in front of an audience, right to their face.
(33:13):
I'm sure you're gonna tell me, no, I don't remember, Okay,
refresh my memory. They're all smugg and arrogant, right. I
don't know how they enforced the sanctuary state and city policies.
They know that this goes on, and if they were
proud of it, you wouldn't see somebody like Kathy Hulk.
(33:34):
She's embarrassed. She ought to be embarrassed. She ought to
be more than embarrassed. They should be hounded out of office.
She ought to be tackled and handcuffed like Alex Padilla was. God,
They've done so much damage, They've cost so much suffering.
I've got more from this press conference too, because all
(33:55):
three of these knuckleheads, Waltz and Hoko and Pritzker were
asked what they would do if Tom Holman came to
their door to arrest them. If only that would happen.
