Speaker 2 (00:01):
I am six forty.
Speaker 3 (00:02):
You're listening to the John Cobelt Podcast on the iHeartRadio app.

with the talkback feature on the iHeartRadio app. All right, now,
(00:42):
this is highly entertaining our narcissistic sociopath of a governor,
Gavin Newsom. It's fascinating to watch him squirm and scramble
because he has spent almost seven years as governor in
California screwing up everything you could get his hands on.
(01:03):
He screwed the oil and gas industry up so bad
that we're paying four point fifty a gallon and there
are let me, let me look at the the prices
again in this country, so we're paying four fifty a
gallon for gas, and in Oklahoma they're paying two sixty
(01:27):
seven a gallon to sixty seven, and Mississippi it's two
sixty eight.
Speaker 2 (01:34):
Texas.
Speaker 3 (01:36):
He's always bagging on Texas to seventy five a gallon.
Not only do we have extremely high gas prices, our
electricity prices are.
Speaker 2 (01:46):
Double the national average.
Speaker 3 (01:48):
Double And if you count it up, there's twenty two
states excuse me, twenty two states that pay less than
three dollars a gallon, and there's about forty four states
that pay three fifty or less. So most of the country,
(02:13):
well half the country's paying under three dollars and over
eighty percent of the country is paying under three fifty
and we're at four fifty and it's going to go
much higher because Newsom's policies has led to two more refineries,
saying look close, and then we're going to be down
to six major refineries in the state. We used to
(02:35):
have over forty twenty five years ago, we had over twenty.
But his assault with taxes and regulations has been so relentless.
He's destroyed the oil industry. And now he's running for
president and he's he's going to have five or six
(02:56):
dollars gas hanging around his neck. Imagine what his Democratic
opponents are going to do to him. You're gonna have
socialists running against him who are gonna say, Gavin, gas
prices aren't nearly as high in my socialist state as yours.
(03:16):
And so he's panicking because us. He's predicting maybe eight
dollars a gallon Michael Miche the professor there. So now
he's desperately trying to find a buyer for one of
the refineries that's going to close, and he's trying to
get a bill passed that would open up Kerrent County
Bakersfield to significantly more oil drilling.
Speaker 2 (03:40):
Downe a total one eighty.
Speaker 3 (03:43):
He used to say just awful, disgusting things about the
oil industry. And you gotta think it's like, what kind
of a bozo? What kind of a bozo? Tries to
destroy the energy supply of the largest state in the Union,
not having a replacement, never built an electrical grid, there's
(04:05):
no charging stations for the electric cars. There are very
few cars that anybody likes. He closed down nuclear facilities,
he closed down natural gas facilities. He left us with
wind and solar and the price has gone sky high.
(04:26):
We double now for electricity, Like, who would do this?
Why would you want him as president? You know how
bad it's gotten. We are now drilling more oil in
the Amazon Rainforest than we are.
Speaker 2 (04:47):
Here in California. The Amazon rainforest.
Speaker 3 (04:54):
Environmentalists have demanded that Newsome cut shutdown oil production here,
and so now we're importing oil from Brazil. And according
to Hector Barajas, who writes in californiaglobe dot com, California
now imports more oil from the Amazon Rainforest than it
produces at home. The oil that California imports comes from
(05:20):
countries where environmental protections are weak or non existent, where
drilling destroys ecosystems and displaces communities, and where spills are
rarely cleaned up. And you have all the idiot environmentalists
for years been congratulating themselves as we're making an impact
on the climate crisis. We're making an impact on cleaning
(05:40):
up the environment. No, and the oil, as Barrajas rites,
that we import from these nations, these are nations that
execute gay people, They deny women basic rights. We pay
(06:01):
twenty five billion dollars a year to foreign countries now
instead of keeping that twenty five billion here and paying
our own workers, because the jobs in the oil industry
are really good. And that's what he wrote this column
on in the oil industry, even if you only have
a high school diploma, even if you've gone to jail,
(06:23):
you'll earn one hundred and twenty three thousand dollars a
year with benefits one hundred and twenty three thousand a year.
And he wrote about how all these stupid lying environmentalists,
climate fanatics, Gavin Newsom, they said, well, you know there's
going to be a we're going to transition to other jobs.
(06:45):
And he asked the question that nobody in the media
ever asks what jobs?
Speaker 2 (06:50):
Where are they?
Speaker 3 (06:52):
And he writes, show us the postings, show us the
career ladders, show us the benefits and the retirement plans.
If any exists, they're few and far between. And that's
just it. It was just all cheap lying rhetoric. There's
no jobs to transition you to something else.
Speaker 2 (07:11):
You're a guy with a high school diploma.
Speaker 3 (07:14):
You can make one hundred and twenty three thousand dollars
a year to feed your family, but working really hard
out in the oil fields, and they want to take
your job away and give it to people in Brazil
who are ruining the rainforest. Good Lord, is Newsome destructive?
(07:34):
Newsom's policies are actually they're actually ruining the Amazon rainforest.
Speaker 2 (07:40):
I didn't know this.
Speaker 3 (07:43):
So now he's scrambling around. He's got some of his
fellow Democrats. There's a guy named Henry Stern. This guy's
a joke from Calabasas. Five years ago he was trying
to keep all oil in the ground. As stupid as that.
(08:04):
You know, we use the second most oil of any
state in the Union, and our oil use is the
same as it was ten years ago. There's some said
zero impact at reducing the amount of oil and gas used.
It's now imported, so it's much more expensive from a
(08:28):
country that is destroying the rainforest and from other countries
that throw gay people off their roofs and kill them.
But Henry Stern this genius. But you people in Calabasses
vote for him. Well, we all need to kind of
kind of evolve, kind of evolve. Maybe that's just a
(08:49):
lesson on climate. There's not really a purity test on this.
It's not like civil rights now, it's only the modern
ecotomy Henry. What were we going to use since she
closed the natural gas plants to nuclear plants, the gas refineries,
(09:10):
he stopped drilling for oil, what were we going to do?
Speaker 2 (09:13):
Run on coca and sprite.
Speaker 3 (09:18):
I mean, it's incredibly colossally, preposterously stupid. And that's that's
what you get from a narcissistic sociopath who only now
is changing the polic See what he was trying to do.
He started these policies when he was getting recalled and
he wanted to suck up to those more on progressive
voters that populate this state.
Speaker 2 (09:44):
And now that he wants to run for.
Speaker 3 (09:46):
National office, the presidency, well you know, we could do
this transition and also continue to use oil and gas
to service the Oh my god, he is such a loser.
He is such a stoop, Such a stoop. More coming up.
Speaker 4 (10:06):
You're listening to John Cobelt on demand from KFI AM
six forty.
Speaker 3 (10:13):
We are on every day from one until four o'clock,
and then if you miss anything, you go to the
iHeart app after four o'clock and you download the podcast
John Cobelt Show on demand same as the radio show,
so you can listen to the show any anytime, day
or night continuously. If you can follow us at John
Cobelt Radio at John Cobelt Radio on social media, and
(10:35):
the moistline is eight seven seven Moist eighty six eight
seven seven Moist eighty six, or you can contact us
with the talkback feature on the iHeartRadio app. You know,
Careen Bass here in Los Angeles has been impossibly stubborn
refusing to clean up homeless encampments and there's still tons
(11:01):
of them on the streets. She may give you some phony,
blowney stats saying, actually, you know it's down five percent.
Let me tell you who really cleared out the homeless encampments.
And everything I tell you is the truth, and there
are stories today about it in the Wall Street Journal
and the National Review. San Francisco has reduced outdoor homeless
(11:25):
encampments by eighty five percent, which is where this whole
thing peaked in twenty twenty when the whole world went
had a nervous breakdown over the George Floyd case and
police work went out the window, All local ordinances went
(11:50):
out the window. Suddenly nothing was enforced. Anything goes and
that's where homelessness really accelerate. And now it was okay
to you know, take dump your human waste in the street.
It was okay to inject yourself with heroin or fentanyl
in the street, snort neth and live out there, live
(12:15):
among all the filth and garbage, and have dozens of
people living in a single encampment, breeding all kinds of disease, people,
violent people, attacking and raping one another. It was all
cool to the progressives because they wanted to ruin civilization.
That was the whole point of this. They believe that
(12:38):
any type of police action to take homeless people off
the street was a.
Speaker 2 (12:42):
Sign of oppression.
Speaker 3 (12:44):
And shockingly, politicians here in Los Angeles nodded along said
you're right, you're right pulling people off, homeless people off
the street. You're oppressing them. And you may say, well,
what about us, You don't understand you're the oppressor. You see,
(13:05):
the police officers are the agents of oppression. But the
source of the original oppression is you. Demanding people follow
the law and go live indoors and get jobs working.
That's oppression. Getting off the drugs, that's oppression. Stop stealing
(13:32):
things oppression. So look at San Francisco and look at
the power of overthrowing an idiot mayor. They had a
bozo of a mayor named London Breed for a number
of years, and she was pro homeless. Occasionally she would
talk a good game but never followed through.
Speaker 2 (13:54):
Finally, in the last months.
Speaker 3 (13:56):
Of her term, when she realized she was going to lose,
she started cleaning some homeless off the streets, but it
was too late. London Breed lost the election to Daniel Lourie,
a businessman, a moderate guy, a guy who works for
a living. In fact, his family has owns the Levi
Strauss brand of jeans. He's the heir to that. As
(14:19):
an adult, he spent a lot of his time not
only as an executive, but as a philanthropist, dodating his
money to something useful. He took over, and one of
the first things he did is that he said, we're
always going to lead with services for the homeless, but
let me be clear, there will no longer be an
option for people to sleep and use drugs on our streets.
(14:44):
And then, as you know, last year, the Supreme Court
of the United States said, well, nobody has a constitutional
right to sleep in public, not on streets, sidewalks, or parks,
and so Daniel Lurie is now arresting homeless people. And
you're going to be shocked because this is all happening
(15:05):
in San Francisco.
Speaker 2 (15:08):
Must be those cruel right wing.
Speaker 3 (15:10):
Conservative people in San Francisco because they have reduced they
have reduced the counts, the count of tents and encampments
eighty five percent. I have a chart in front of
me here, eighty five percent. They've done this.
Speaker 2 (15:29):
Since since June.
Speaker 3 (15:33):
Yeah, between July of twenty twenty four and July of
twenty twenty five, junior year ago, the city arrested more
than one thousand eighty people on illegal lodging charges, over
ten times the number of illegal lodging arrests from a
(15:55):
year earlier. In April of this year alone, legal lodging
citations and arrests at one hundred and thirty. So how
about that, and poof they're gone. You always hear homeless.
This is a very complex issue. You know what we
(16:16):
heard that about like for decades, illegal border crossings. It's
a very complex issue. And I used to say, no,
it's not just close the border. Well Trump came and
did that. Guess what turned out to me as a
very simple issue. And you can solve it in a day. Well,
look at this, in a year, there's eighty five percent
(16:40):
fewer tents and encampments in San Francisco. Now, why can't
we have this here? Why are why aren't we experiencing
the same thing? Bass is defiant against that Supreme Court ruling.
Daniel Lourie, by the way, he's a Democrat. We're talking
(17:01):
about San Francisco here. No extreme politics from the right
in San Francisco. Obviously, they just don't want to live
this way anymore. Normal people don't want to live this way.
Eighty five percent reduction documented for real. In the last
twelve months, two hundred and twenty anti camping ordinances have
(17:24):
passed around the country. That's according to the ACLU, California
has a third of them. So California has about seventy
five ordinances saying you can't sleep in public anymore. We
have half of the outdoor homeless population of the country
(17:45):
half and about seventy five towns has said no more,
including San Francisco, but not Los Angeles. God, even in California,
we are so far extreme and absurd, even compared to
San Francisco. So San Francisco is going to have a renaissance.
(18:08):
It's gonna be nice and orderly and beautiful there and here.
Speaker 2 (18:13):
We are still going to.
Speaker 3 (18:14):
Have people defecating in the streets, tossing their needles and
drug paraphernalia around, and we're going to still have people
screaming into the night, chasing you with with knives and
machetes and sticks.
Speaker 2 (18:30):
More coming up.
Speaker 4 (18:32):
You're listening to John Cobbel's on demand from KFI Am
six forty.
Speaker 3 (18:37):
We're on every day from one until four o'clock. Every
day after four o'clock, whatever you missed to join the
tens of thousands of people every day who listen to
the podcast John Cobelt Show on demand on the iHeart app. Again,
it's posted shortly after four o'clock. You can follow us
at John Cobelt Radio at John Cobelt Radio on social
media and the moistline is eight seven seven Moist eighty
(18:59):
six seven to seven Moist eighty six, or you can
contact us with the talkback feature on the iHeartRadio app.
Just one more follow up, and this is the kind
of thing We're going to be talking about this frequently
because you know, people who are forced to live in
La City and County you are truly living in what's
(19:19):
become a one of a kind county and city increasingly
even in California. I told you Corney to the Wall
Street Journal, eighty five percent of the homeless encampments in
San Francisco have been removed eighty five percent. And you
want to hear a shocking number the Tenderloin districts. The
(19:42):
Tenderloin district where they have some of the worst public behavior.
It is an open air mental institution. Massive number of
drug addicts injecting themselves and then dying in the streets.
You're not gonna believe this. In the Tenderloin district. In
(20:04):
April of twenty twenty, there were two hundred and fourteen tents,
two hundred and fourteen and now there's fifteen. It went
from two fourteen to fifteen and most of this has
been removed in the last year. They're doing it in
(20:27):
San Francisco better than ninety percent of the tents are gone.
Why can't we have this year they did it almost
people are gone. People are shocked in these neighborhoods because
they can walk the streets and they're not stepping in
someone's pooh, and they're not tripping over needles, and they're
(20:53):
not getting chased by a madman with broken bottles and
sticks and.
Speaker 2 (21:00):
Weapons.
Speaker 3 (21:03):
I mean, this is I'm just looking at a chart
they published at San Francisco's own data that the journal published.
You imagine the worst district in San Francisco, maybe the
worst district the whole state tenderline two hundred and fourteen
tenths five years ago, now fifteen. Why can't we have that?
(21:24):
Why can't Karen Bass do that here? Why isn't she
being forced to do this here? Saint London Breed got
spooked and Daniel Lurie replaced her, and Bred started removing
the tents. Now Lurie's finishing off the job.
Speaker 2 (21:41):
That's what we need.
Speaker 3 (21:41):
We need somebody to run against Bass and scarer than
maybe the last few months. She'll actually remove them. See
nothing bad happens. The reason they let the homeless people
live in the streets is because they believed forcing them
to move along oppresses them. That's their sick, sick, weirdo
(22:05):
cult like ideology.
Speaker 2 (22:08):
How about that, San Francis. I can't get over that.
Speaker 3 (22:14):
Now, one of the great scourges that's going to destroy
the rest of our civilization is these AI chatbots. The
following is a true story, and we're going to get
deeper into it a little later on because Mark Zuckerberg's
dream is that we all have AI friends, chatbot friends.
(22:38):
He says, loneliness is a terrible thing, and he wants
to fill the gap since people will not make human
connections anymore, He's going to give us chatbot friends, and
we could spend all day at home talking dirty to them.
But here's what happens. There is a guy. He's an
Asian immigrant. His name is Thungboo Juan Bandu, that is
(23:04):
his name. He's seventy six years old and he'd suffered
a stroke back in twenty seventeen. So Thung Boo had
some cognitive impairment and he lived in New Jersey and
(23:26):
I guess because of his stroke the after effects of
the stroke, he couldn't communicate well, didn't have many friends
to talk to, and he got very lonely. So he
started talking to Big Sis Billy. You ever heard of
this girl, Big Sis Billy. She's marketed as being the
(23:49):
older AI sister of Kendall Jenner. I'm not making this up.
Kendall Jenner was either promoting or had invested in a
company that created this This bot named Billy a girl
(24:11):
Well Thung boo long band. This whole thing sounds made up.
I swear to you it's not. Fell in love with
Kendall Jenner's bot. The butt convinced this old man that
she was real, and I guess the bot went rogue.
(24:34):
She convinced him to meet her in person. Lives in Piscataway,
New Jersey, near New Brunswick. So he leaves this Piscataway
home to catch a train in New Brunswick, and he
is so excited. His wife and his kids were begging
(24:57):
him to stay, but he thought he thought this chatbot
was real. So he's in the parking lot the New
Runswick train station and he starts to run. He wants
to catch the train, and he falls and he hits
his head and then he dies. He was put on
(25:19):
life support and then he died three days later. Broke
his neck, busted his head. The daughter of wog Ban Dude, Julie, said,
I understand trying to grab a user's attention, maybe to
sell him something, but for a bot to say come
(25:40):
visit me is in stain. And poor wog banng Do
because he had impairment in his brain from the stroke,
went for it and he ran out to meet the
woman of his dreams, Kendall Jenner's sister, and.
Speaker 2 (25:59):
Basically killed himself. Tripped, smacked his head, died.
Speaker 3 (26:06):
Now that that could be the most awful death I've
ever heard, the most absurd death I've ever heard. And
look what these these these AI bots can do. It's
incredible the power they have on people's minds. Kathy Hochel,
the New York Governor posted a man in New Jersey
(26:30):
lost his life after being lured by a checkbot that
lied to him. This is something that Meta is promoting.
There's a Florida mother who assued character AI claiming that
(26:51):
this Game of Thrones checkbots resulted in her fourteen year
old committing suicide.
Speaker 2 (26:59):
So some people's minds are so impaired.
Speaker 3 (27:03):
They fall into a full blown romantic intellectual relationship with
the bot.
Speaker 2 (27:10):
All right, more coming up.
Speaker 4 (27:12):
You're listening to John Cobelts on demand from KFI AM
six forty.
Speaker 3 (27:18):
We are on every day from one until four o'clock
and then if you miss anything you go to the
iHeart app after four o'clock and you download the podcast
John Cobelt's Show on demand same as the radio show,
so you can listen to the show any anytime, day

Cobelt Radio at John Cobelt Radio on social media and
(27:40):
the moistline is eight seven seven Moist eighty six eight
seven seven Moist eighty six, or you can contact us
with the talkback feature on the iHeartRadio app. The Keith
Boyer bill is up for a hearing. Keith Boyer remember him.
He was the officer in Whittier some years ago who
got shot by a gang member named Michael Mhea and
(28:04):
killed and Mahia. He actually opened fire on two police officers,
killing Boyer, and he had just gotten out of prison.
He since was sentenced to life. Who knows, but there
are a number of people in Whittier, Mayor Joe Vinnitieria
(28:24):
is one of them that want a bill passed to
close this loophole regarding how dad guys are supervised when
they're let out of prison. Because this Michael Mahea was
running around loose and was free and able to kill
Officer Keith Boyer. Let's get Joe on here. Joe Hey, John,
how are you?
Speaker 2 (28:44):
God? Did this goes back to twenty fifteen? Is that right?
Speaker 1 (28:48):
Uh? No?
Speaker 2 (28:51):
Seventeen?
Speaker 3 (28:52):
Okay, all right, well you know what, because all right,
I'm looking at a I'm looking at a mug shot
of Mahia and it's it's dated twenty fifty.
Speaker 2 (29:00):
But I guess that's the reason he was in prison.
Speaker 3 (29:02):
Whatever he did in twenty fifteen, he got out in
twenty six seventeen, and then he shot and killed Officer
Keith Boyer. All right, so what's this loophole that you're
trying to get closed with the Assembly bill?
Speaker 1 (29:15):
So here's what the issue is. When Officer Boyer was
shot and killed, Mahea was on post released community supervision
and was being followed by probation in La County. But
the problem was that the laws said that once you
are out on this community supervision, you can't commit any violations.
(29:39):
And what happened was he went ahead and committed one
violation was a misdemeanor or something marijuana thing, so they
put him in for ten days. He's out of county
jail on ten days. That happened five times. Five times.
The fifth time, two weeks later is when oser Boyer
(30:01):
went to the traffic accident here in Whittier, and he
was involved in accident and Keith was shot and tilled.
So the problem was, even though it said three, it
basically said you can go ahead and be involved in
these infractions and you're going to go do your time
for ten days and then you're back out. There's no accountability.
(30:24):
So this bill basically says, look it, if someone goes
ahead and commits a felony or a misdemeanor, even though
they're out on the third time, they're going to go
see the judge, and the judge going to determine, well,
should they really be out or should they be back
in prison incarceration. So that's what this bill does. And
(30:44):
this was passed shortly after oser Boyer was killed and
went through both the Assembly and the state Senate only
to be vetoed. They went through without a negative vote,
went through and it was vetoed at the last minute
by Governor Jerry Brown. We had the same bill up
last year, made it all the way through the Senate,
(31:05):
made it over to the Assembly of got through Assembly
Public Safety Committee, and we went through without a single
negative vote, went to the Assembly Appropriations Committee and died
in that committee. Why is it important now, because next
Friday we're going to be in front of Assembly Appropriations
Committee on SB seven fifty nine, and we're trying to
(31:28):
get the word out, encouraging everyone to call, to talk
to your Assembly member and say, hey, look it. It's
all about common sense, it's about making everyone safe. Please
vote to get it out of the Assembly Appropriations Committee
on Friday.
Speaker 3 (31:43):
Let me play the ad that's running to support this bill.
Speaker 2 (31:48):
You play cut two.
Speaker 5 (31:49):
In California, a dangerous loophole is putting our communities at risk.
Right now, someone on post release supervision can violate the
terms of their release multiple times, even commit new crimes
without facing serious consequences. SB seven fifty nine changes that.
It holds repeat offenders accountable and gives counties the power
to act after a third violation involving a new felony
(32:12):
or misdemeanor. This isn't about punishment, it's about prevention.
Speaker 2 (32:16):
Wittre.
Speaker 5 (32:17):
Your police officer, Keith Boyer lost his life because the
system failed. SB seven fifty nine learns from that tragedy
and prioritizes public safety.
Speaker 2 (32:26):
Call your state.
Speaker 5 (32:26):
Representative today and urge them to vote yes on SB
seven fifty nine. Let's close the loophole before another life
is lost.
Speaker 2 (32:35):
Hard to believe.
Speaker 3 (32:36):
Hard to believe that you could have someone in prison
for felony and they violate the law, not once, not twice,
three times.
Speaker 2 (32:44):
And there's no serious consequences.
Speaker 1 (32:47):
That's correct. That's correct, and that's why we say it's
a loophole and it needs to be plugged. Austin Boyer
was not the only officer who was killed by someone
who is on a post committee release. We've had other officers.
We had a Sheriff's sergeant in the Animal Valley was
killed prior to Officer Boyer. We had the same situation
(33:09):
with officers in Palm Springs and thankfully it hasn't happened
a lot, but one time it is too many. And
so that's what this is all about. And we're just
asking everyone to call your Assembly member and say, look
it we need to support. I want you to support
SB seven fifty nine. It's in Assembly Appropriations Committee on
(33:31):
next Friday, a week from today, and we want you
to please tell the members of that committee to vote
it out so it can get on the floor of
the Assembly and it can be voted upon by everyone
in the Assembly and then get it to the governor.
Speaker 3 (33:46):
All right, jovin Atieri, the Mayor Whittier. Thank you for
coming on, John.
Speaker 1 (33:51):
Thank you for your help on this, and we're going
to stick with it until this happened.
Speaker 3 (33:54):
Yeah, anytime, all right, jovin Atieri, the Mayor Whittier. Now

Speaker 3 (00:02):
You're listening to the John Cobelt Podcast on the iHeartRadio app.
We are on every day from one until four o'clock
and then if you miss anything, you go to the
iHeart app after four o'clock and you download the podcast
John Cobelt Show on demand, same as the radio show,
so you can listen to the show any anytime, day
(00:22):
or night continuously. If you can follow us at John
Cobelt Radio at John Cobelt Radio on social media, and
the moistline is eight seven seven Moist eighty six eight
seven seven Moist eighty six, or you can contact us
with the talkback feature on the iHeartRadio app. All right, now,
(00:42):
this is highly entertaining our narcissistic sociopath of a governor,
Gavin Newsom. It's fascinating to watch him squirm and scramble
because he has spent almost seven years as governor in
California screwing up everything you could get his hands on.
(01:03):
He screwed the oil and gas industry up so bad
that we're paying four point fifty a gallon and there
are let me, let me look at the the prices
again in this country, so we're paying four fifty a
gallon for gas, and in Oklahoma they're paying two sixty
(01:27):
seven a gallon to sixty seven, and Mississippi it's two
sixty eight.
Speaker 2 (01:34):
Texas.
Speaker 3 (01:36):
He's always bagging on Texas to seventy five a gallon.
Not only do we have extremely high gas prices, our
electricity prices are.
Speaker 2 (01:46):
Double the national average.
Speaker 3 (01:48):
Double And if you count it up, there's twenty two
states excuse me, twenty two states that pay less than
three dollars a gallon, and there's about forty four states
that pay three fifty or less. So most of the country,
(02:13):
well half the country's paying under three dollars and over
eighty percent of the country is paying under three fifty
and we're at four fifty and it's going to go
much higher because Newsom's policies has led to two more refineries,
saying look close, and then we're going to be down
to six major refineries in the state. We used to
(02:35):
have over forty twenty five years ago, we had over twenty.
But his assault with taxes and regulations has been so relentless.
He's destroyed the oil industry. And now he's running for
president and he's he's going to have five or six
(02:56):
dollars gas hanging around his neck. Imagine what his Democratic
opponents are going to do to him. You're gonna have
socialists running against him who are gonna say, Gavin, gas
prices aren't nearly as high in my socialist state as yours.
(03:16):
And so he's panicking because us. He's predicting maybe eight
dollars a gallon Michael Miche the professor there. So now
he's desperately trying to find a buyer for one of
the refineries that's going to close, and he's trying to
get a bill passed that would open up Kerrent County
Bakersfield to significantly more oil drilling.
Speaker 2 (03:40):
Downe a total one eighty.
Speaker 3 (03:43):
He used to say just awful, disgusting things about the
oil industry. And you gotta think it's like, what kind
of a bozo? What kind of a bozo? Tries to
destroy the energy supply of the largest state in the Union,
not having a replacement, never built an electrical grid, there's
(04:05):
no charging stations for the electric cars. There are very
few cars that anybody likes. He closed down nuclear facilities,
he closed down natural gas facilities. He left us with
wind and solar and the price has gone sky high.
(04:26):
We double now for electricity, Like, who would do this?
Why would you want him as president? You know how
bad it's gotten. We are now drilling more oil in
the Amazon Rainforest than we are.
Speaker 2 (04:47):
Here in California. The Amazon rainforest.
Speaker 3 (04:54):
Environmentalists have demanded that Newsome cut shutdown oil production here,
and so now we're importing oil from Brazil. And according
to Hector Barajas, who writes in californiaglobe dot com, California
now imports more oil from the Amazon Rainforest than it
produces at home. The oil that California imports comes from
(05:20):
countries where environmental protections are weak or non existent, where
drilling destroys ecosystems and displaces communities, and where spills are
rarely cleaned up. And you have all the idiot environmentalists
for years been congratulating themselves as we're making an impact
on the climate crisis. We're making an impact on cleaning
(05:40):
up the environment. No, and the oil, as Barrajas rites,
that we import from these nations, these are nations that
execute gay people, They deny women basic rights. We pay
(06:01):
twenty five billion dollars a year to foreign countries now
instead of keeping that twenty five billion here and paying
our own workers, because the jobs in the oil industry
are really good. And that's what he wrote this column
on in the oil industry, even if you only have
a high school diploma, even if you've gone to jail,
(06:23):
you'll earn one hundred and twenty three thousand dollars a
year with benefits one hundred and twenty three thousand a year.
And he wrote about how all these stupid lying environmentalists,
climate fanatics, Gavin Newsom, they said, well, you know there's
going to be a we're going to transition to other jobs.
(06:45):
And he asked the question that nobody in the media
ever asks what jobs?
Speaker 2 (06:50):
Where are they?
Speaker 3 (06:52):
And he writes, show us the postings, show us the
career ladders, show us the benefits and the retirement plans.
If any exists, they're few and far between. And that's
just it. It was just all cheap lying rhetoric. There's
no jobs to transition you to something else.
Speaker 2 (07:11):
You're a guy with a high school diploma.
Speaker 3 (07:14):
You can make one hundred and twenty three thousand dollars
a year to feed your family, but working really hard
out in the oil fields, and they want to take
your job away and give it to people in Brazil
who are ruining the rainforest. Good Lord, is Newsome destructive?
(07:34):
Newsom's policies are actually they're actually ruining the Amazon rainforest.
Speaker 2 (07:40):
I didn't know this.
Speaker 3 (07:43):
So now he's scrambling around. He's got some of his
fellow Democrats. There's a guy named Henry Stern. This guy's
a joke from Calabasas. Five years ago he was trying
to keep all oil in the ground. As stupid as that.
(08:04):
You know, we use the second most oil of any
state in the Union, and our oil use is the
same as it was ten years ago. There's some said
zero impact at reducing the amount of oil and gas used.
It's now imported, so it's much more expensive from a
(08:28):
country that is destroying the rainforest and from other countries
that throw gay people off their roofs and kill them.
But Henry Stern this genius. But you people in Calabasses
vote for him. Well, we all need to kind of
kind of evolve, kind of evolve. Maybe that's just a
(08:49):
lesson on climate. There's not really a purity test on this.
It's not like civil rights now, it's only the modern
ecotomy Henry. What were we going to use since she
closed the natural gas plants to nuclear plants, the gas refineries,
(09:10):
he stopped drilling for oil, what were we going to do?
Speaker 2 (09:13):
Run on coca and sprite.
Speaker 3 (09:18):
I mean, it's incredibly colossally, preposterously stupid. And that's that's
what you get from a narcissistic sociopath who only now
is changing the polic See what he was trying to do.
He started these policies when he was getting recalled and
he wanted to suck up to those more on progressive
voters that populate this state.
Speaker 2 (09:44):
And now that he wants to run for.
Speaker 3 (09:46):
National office, the presidency, well you know, we could do
this transition and also continue to use oil and gas
to service the Oh my god, he is such a loser.
He is such a stoop, Such a stoop. More coming up.
Speaker 4 (10:06):
You're listening to John Cobelt on demand from KFI AM
six forty.
Speaker 3 (10:13):
We are on every day from one until four o'clock,
and then if you miss anything, you go to the
iHeart app after four o'clock and you download the podcast
John Cobelt Show on demand same as the radio show,
so you can listen to the show any anytime, day
or night continuously. If you can follow us at John
Cobelt Radio at John Cobelt Radio on social media, and
(10:35):
the moistline is eight seven seven Moist eighty six eight
seven seven Moist eighty six, or you can contact us
with the talkback feature on the iHeartRadio app. You know,
Careen Bass here in Los Angeles has been impossibly stubborn
refusing to clean up homeless encampments and there's still tons
(11:01):
of them on the streets. She may give you some phony,
blowney stats saying, actually, you know it's down five percent.
Let me tell you who really cleared out the homeless encampments.
And everything I tell you is the truth, and there
are stories today about it in the Wall Street Journal
and the National Review. San Francisco has reduced outdoor homeless
(11:25):
encampments by eighty five percent, which is where this whole
thing peaked in twenty twenty when the whole world went
had a nervous breakdown over the George Floyd case and
police work went out the window, All local ordinances went
(11:50):
out the window. Suddenly nothing was enforced. Anything goes and
that's where homelessness really accelerate. And now it was okay
to you know, take dump your human waste in the street.
It was okay to inject yourself with heroin or fentanyl
in the street, snort neth and live out there, live
(12:15):
among all the filth and garbage, and have dozens of
people living in a single encampment, breeding all kinds of disease, people,
violent people, attacking and raping one another. It was all
cool to the progressives because they wanted to ruin civilization.
That was the whole point of this. They believe that
(12:38):
any type of police action to take homeless people off
the street was a.
Speaker 2 (12:42):
Sign of oppression.
Speaker 3 (12:44):
And shockingly, politicians here in Los Angeles nodded along said
you're right, you're right pulling people off, homeless people off
the street. You're oppressing them. And you may say, well,
what about us, You don't understand you're the oppressor. You see,
(13:05):
the police officers are the agents of oppression. But the
source of the original oppression is you. Demanding people follow
the law and go live indoors and get jobs working.
That's oppression. Getting off the drugs, that's oppression. Stop stealing
(13:32):
things oppression. So look at San Francisco and look at
the power of overthrowing an idiot mayor. They had a
bozo of a mayor named London Breed for a number
of years, and she was pro homeless. Occasionally she would
talk a good game but never followed through.
Speaker 2 (13:54):
Finally, in the last months.
Speaker 3 (13:56):
Of her term, when she realized she was going to lose,
she started cleaning some homeless off the streets, but it
was too late. London Breed lost the election to Daniel Lourie,
a businessman, a moderate guy, a guy who works for
a living. In fact, his family has owns the Levi
Strauss brand of jeans. He's the heir to that. As
(14:19):
an adult, he spent a lot of his time not
only as an executive, but as a philanthropist, dodating his
money to something useful. He took over, and one of
the first things he did is that he said, we're
always going to lead with services for the homeless, but
let me be clear, there will no longer be an
option for people to sleep and use drugs on our streets.
(14:44):
And then, as you know, last year, the Supreme Court
of the United States said, well, nobody has a constitutional
right to sleep in public, not on streets, sidewalks, or parks,
and so Daniel Lurie is now arresting homeless people. And
you're going to be shocked because this is all happening
(15:05):
in San Francisco.
Speaker 2 (15:08):
Must be those cruel right wing.
Speaker 3 (15:10):
Conservative people in San Francisco because they have reduced they
have reduced the counts, the count of tents and encampments
eighty five percent. I have a chart in front of
me here, eighty five percent. They've done this.
Speaker 2 (15:29):
Since since June.
Speaker 3 (15:33):
Yeah, between July of twenty twenty four and July of
twenty twenty five, junior year ago, the city arrested more
than one thousand eighty people on illegal lodging charges, over
ten times the number of illegal lodging arrests from a
(15:55):
year earlier. In April of this year alone, legal lodging
citations and arrests at one hundred and thirty. So how
about that, and poof they're gone. You always hear homeless.
This is a very complex issue. You know what we
(16:16):
heard that about like for decades, illegal border crossings. It's
a very complex issue. And I used to say, no,
it's not just close the border. Well Trump came and
did that. Guess what turned out to me as a
very simple issue. And you can solve it in a day. Well,
look at this, in a year, there's eighty five percent
(16:40):
fewer tents and encampments in San Francisco. Now, why can't
we have this here? Why are why aren't we experiencing
the same thing? Bass is defiant against that Supreme Court ruling.
Daniel Lourie, by the way, he's a Democrat. We're talking
(17:01):
about San Francisco here. No extreme politics from the right
in San Francisco. Obviously, they just don't want to live
this way anymore. Normal people don't want to live this way.
Eighty five percent reduction documented for real. In the last
twelve months, two hundred and twenty anti camping ordinances have
(17:24):
passed around the country. That's according to the ACLU, California
has a third of them. So California has about seventy
five ordinances saying you can't sleep in public anymore. We
have half of the outdoor homeless population of the country
(17:45):
half and about seventy five towns has said no more,
including San Francisco, but not Los Angeles. God, even in California,
we are so far extreme and absurd, even compared to
San Francisco. So San Francisco is going to have a renaissance.
(18:08):
It's gonna be nice and orderly and beautiful there and here.
Speaker 2 (18:13):
We are still going to.
Speaker 3 (18:14):
Have people defecating in the streets, tossing their needles and
drug paraphernalia around, and we're going to still have people
screaming into the night, chasing you with with knives and
machetes and sticks.
Speaker 2 (18:30):
More coming up.
Speaker 4 (18:32):
You're listening to John Cobbel's on demand from KFI Am
six forty.
Speaker 3 (18:37):
We're on every day from one until four o'clock. Every
day after four o'clock, whatever you missed to join the
tens of thousands of people every day who listen to
the podcast John Cobelt Show on demand on the iHeart app. Again,
it's posted shortly after four o'clock. You can follow us
at John Cobelt Radio at John Cobelt Radio on social
media and the moistline is eight seven seven Moist eighty
(18:59):
six seven to seven Moist eighty six, or you can
contact us with the talkback feature on the iHeartRadio app.
Just one more follow up, and this is the kind
of thing We're going to be talking about this frequently
because you know, people who are forced to live in
La City and County you are truly living in what's
(19:19):
become a one of a kind county and city increasingly
even in California. I told you Corney to the Wall
Street Journal, eighty five percent of the homeless encampments in
San Francisco have been removed eighty five percent. And you
want to hear a shocking number the Tenderloin districts. The
(19:42):
Tenderloin district where they have some of the worst public behavior.
It is an open air mental institution. Massive number of
drug addicts injecting themselves and then dying in the streets.
You're not gonna believe this. In the Tenderloin district. In
(20:04):
April of twenty twenty, there were two hundred and fourteen tents,
two hundred and fourteen and now there's fifteen. It went
from two fourteen to fifteen and most of this has
been removed in the last year. They're doing it in
(20:27):
San Francisco better than ninety percent of the tents are gone.
Why can't we have this year they did it almost
people are gone. People are shocked in these neighborhoods because
they can walk the streets and they're not stepping in
someone's pooh, and they're not tripping over needles, and they're
(20:53):
not getting chased by a madman with broken bottles and
sticks and.
Speaker 2 (21:00):
Weapons.
Speaker 3 (21:03):
I mean, this is I'm just looking at a chart
they published at San Francisco's own data that the journal published.
You imagine the worst district in San Francisco, maybe the
worst district the whole state tenderline two hundred and fourteen
tenths five years ago, now fifteen. Why can't we have that?
(21:24):
Why can't Karen Bass do that here? Why isn't she
being forced to do this here? Saint London Breed got
spooked and Daniel Lurie replaced her, and Bred started removing
the tents. Now Lurie's finishing off the job.
Speaker 2 (21:41):
That's what we need.
Speaker 3 (21:41):
We need somebody to run against Bass and scarer than
maybe the last few months. She'll actually remove them. See
nothing bad happens. The reason they let the homeless people
live in the streets is because they believed forcing them
to move along oppresses them. That's their sick, sick, weirdo
(22:05):
cult like ideology.
Speaker 2 (22:08):
How about that, San Francis. I can't get over that.
Speaker 3 (22:14):
Now, one of the great scourges that's going to destroy
the rest of our civilization is these AI chatbots. The
following is a true story, and we're going to get
deeper into it a little later on because Mark Zuckerberg's
dream is that we all have AI friends, chatbot friends.
(22:38):
He says, loneliness is a terrible thing, and he wants
to fill the gap since people will not make human
connections anymore, He's going to give us chatbot friends, and
we could spend all day at home talking dirty to them.
But here's what happens. There is a guy. He's an
Asian immigrant. His name is Thungboo Juan Bandu, that is
(23:04):
his name. He's seventy six years old and he'd suffered
a stroke back in twenty seventeen. So Thung Boo had
some cognitive impairment and he lived in New Jersey and
(23:26):
I guess because of his stroke the after effects of
the stroke, he couldn't communicate well, didn't have many friends
to talk to, and he got very lonely. So he
started talking to Big Sis Billy. You ever heard of
this girl, Big Sis Billy. She's marketed as being the
(23:49):
older AI sister of Kendall Jenner. I'm not making this up.
Kendall Jenner was either promoting or had invested in a
company that created this This bot named Billy a girl
(24:11):
Well Thung boo long band. This whole thing sounds made up.
I swear to you it's not. Fell in love with
Kendall Jenner's bot. The butt convinced this old man that
she was real, and I guess the bot went rogue.
(24:34):
She convinced him to meet her in person. Lives in Piscataway,
New Jersey, near New Brunswick. So he leaves this Piscataway
home to catch a train in New Brunswick, and he
is so excited. His wife and his kids were begging
(24:57):
him to stay, but he thought he thought this chatbot
was real. So he's in the parking lot the New
Runswick train station and he starts to run. He wants
to catch the train, and he falls and he hits
his head and then he dies. He was put on
(25:19):
life support and then he died three days later. Broke
his neck, busted his head. The daughter of wog Ban Dude, Julie, said,
I understand trying to grab a user's attention, maybe to
sell him something, but for a bot to say come
(25:40):
visit me is in stain. And poor wog banng Do
because he had impairment in his brain from the stroke,
went for it and he ran out to meet the
woman of his dreams, Kendall Jenner's sister, and.
Speaker 2 (25:59):
Basically killed himself. Tripped, smacked his head, died.
Speaker 3 (26:06):
Now that that could be the most awful death I've
ever heard, the most absurd death I've ever heard. And
look what these these these AI bots can do. It's
incredible the power they have on people's minds. Kathy Hochel,
the New York Governor posted a man in New Jersey
(26:30):
lost his life after being lured by a checkbot that
lied to him. This is something that Meta is promoting.
There's a Florida mother who assued character AI claiming that
(26:51):
this Game of Thrones checkbots resulted in her fourteen year
old committing suicide.
Speaker 2 (26:59):
So some people's minds are so impaired.
Speaker 3 (27:03):
They fall into a full blown romantic intellectual relationship with
the bot.
Speaker 2 (27:10):
All right, more coming up.
Speaker 4 (27:12):
You're listening to John Cobelts on demand from KFI AM

We are on every day from one until four o'clock

the moistline is eight seven seven Moist eighty six eight
seven seven Moist eighty six, or you can contact us

Boyer bill is up for a hearing. Keith Boyer remember him.
He was the officer in Whittier some years ago who
got shot by a gang member named Michael Mhea and
(28:04):
killed and Mahia. He actually opened fire on two police officers,
killing Boyer, and he had just gotten out of prison.
He since was sentenced to life. Who knows, but there
are a number of people in Whittier, Mayor Joe Vinnitieria
(28:24):
is one of them that want a bill passed to
close this loophole regarding how dad guys are supervised when
they're let out of prison. Because this Michael Mahea was
running around loose and was free and able to kill
Officer Keith Boyer. Let's get Joe on here. Joe Hey, John,
how are you?
Speaker 2 (28:44):
God? Did this goes back to twenty fifteen? Is that right?
Speaker 1 (28:48):
Uh? No?
Speaker 2 (28:51):
Seventeen?
Speaker 3 (28:52):
Okay, all right, well you know what, because all right,
I'm looking at a I'm looking at a mug shot
of Mahia and it's it's dated twenty fifty.
Speaker 2 (29:00):
But I guess that's the reason he was in prison.
Speaker 3 (29:02):
Whatever he did in twenty fifteen, he got out in
twenty six seventeen, and then he shot and killed Officer
Keith Boyer. All right, so what's this loophole that you're
trying to get closed with the Assembly bill?
Speaker 1 (29:15):
So here's what the issue is. When Officer Boyer was
shot and killed, Mahea was on post released community supervision
and was being followed by probation in La County. But
the problem was that the laws said that once you
are out on this community supervision, you can't commit any violations.
(29:39):
And what happened was he went ahead and committed one
violation was a misdemeanor or something marijuana thing, so they
put him in for ten days. He's out of county
jail on ten days. That happened five times. Five times.
The fifth time, two weeks later is when oser Boyer
(30:01):
went to the traffic accident here in Whittier, and he
was involved in accident and Keith was shot and tilled.
So the problem was, even though it said three, it
basically said you can go ahead and be involved in
these infractions and you're going to go do your time
for ten days and then you're back out. There's no accountability.
(30:24):
So this bill basically says, look it, if someone goes
ahead and commits a felony or a misdemeanor, even though
they're out on the third time, they're going to go
see the judge, and the judge going to determine, well,
should they really be out or should they be back
in prison incarceration. So that's what this bill does. And
(30:44):
this was passed shortly after oser Boyer was killed and
went through both the Assembly and the state Senate only
to be vetoed. They went through without a negative vote,
went through and it was vetoed at the last minute
by Governor Jerry Brown. We had the same bill up
last year, made it all the way through the Senate,
(31:05):
made it over to the Assembly of got through Assembly
Public Safety Committee, and we went through without a single
negative vote, went to the Assembly Appropriations Committee and died
in that committee. Why is it important now, because next
Friday we're going to be in front of Assembly Appropriations
Committee on SB seven fifty nine, and we're trying to
(31:28):
get the word out, encouraging everyone to call, to talk
to your Assembly member and say, hey, look it. It's
all about common sense, it's about making everyone safe. Please
vote to get it out of the Assembly Appropriations Committee
on Friday.
Speaker 3 (31:43):
Let me play the ad that's running to support this bill.
Speaker 2 (31:48):
You play cut two.
Speaker 5 (31:49):
In California, a dangerous loophole is putting our communities at risk.
Right now, someone on post release supervision can violate the
terms of their release multiple times, even commit new crimes
without facing serious consequences. SB seven fifty nine changes that.
It holds repeat offenders accountable and gives counties the power
to act after a third violation involving a new felony
(32:12):
or misdemeanor. This isn't about punishment, it's about prevention.
Speaker 2 (32:16):
Wittre.
Speaker 5 (32:17):
Your police officer, Keith Boyer lost his life because the
system failed. SB seven fifty nine learns from that tragedy
and prioritizes public safety.
Speaker 2 (32:26):
Call your state.
Speaker 5 (32:26):
Representative today and urge them to vote yes on SB
seven fifty nine. Let's close the loophole before another life
is lost.
Speaker 2 (32:35):
Hard to believe.
Speaker 3 (32:36):
Hard to believe that you could have someone in prison
for felony and they violate the law, not once, not twice,
three times.
Speaker 2 (32:44):
And there's no serious consequences.
Speaker 1 (32:47):
That's correct. That's correct, and that's why we say it's
a loophole and it needs to be plugged. Austin Boyer
was not the only officer who was killed by someone
who is on a post committee release. We've had other officers.
We had a Sheriff's sergeant in the Animal Valley was
killed prior to Officer Boyer. We had the same situation
(33:09):
with officers in Palm Springs and thankfully it hasn't happened
a lot, but one time it is too many. And
so that's what this is all about. And we're just
asking everyone to call your Assembly member and say, look
it we need to support. I want you to support
SB seven fifty nine. It's in Assembly Appropriations Committee on
(33:31):
next Friday, a week from today, and we want you
to please tell the members of that committee to vote
it out so it can get on the floor of
the Assembly and it can be voted upon by everyone
in the Assembly and then get it to the governor.
Speaker 3 (33:46):
All right, jovin Atieri, the Mayor Whittier. Thank you for
coming on, John.
Speaker 1 (33:51):
Thank you for your help on this, and we're going
to stick with it until this happened.
Speaker 3 (33:54):
Yeah, anytime, all right, jovin Atieri, the Mayor Whittier. Now
