Speaker 1 (00:00):
Can't.
Speaker 2 (00:00):
I am six forty.
Speaker 1 (00:02):
You're listening to the John Cobelt podcast on the iHeartRadio app.
We're on every day from one until four o'clock, and
every day after four o'clock you get the podcast version
John Cobelt's show on demand. And if you're just joining us,
you missed a really entertaining hours. So I would definitely
go to the podcast later on when it gets posted
after four o'clock. And it's all about Gavin Newsom's silly
(00:25):
pep rally today, and.
Speaker 2 (00:29):
I mean you had. What's fascinating is.
Speaker 1 (00:33):
How Trump causes people to suffer public nervous breakdowns at
Newsom's rally today announcing his stupid redistricting idea that nobody likes.
Loureni Gonzalez, a union leader and a former legislator. She
starts spitting out curses left and right, f bombs, and
then Karen Bass found out that Ice was in the
(00:57):
neighborhood in front of the venue where Nussan was holding
his rally. Ice was in front, and they arrested one
guy selling strawberries, and Bass heard about this. Can you
play that clip again? Because this is a woman who's
living on the edge emotionally.
Speaker 3 (01:15):
Why would you do that. That is unbelievably disrespectful. It's
a provocative act. They're talking about disorder in Los Angeles
and they are the source of the disorder in Los
Angeles right now. This is just completely unacceptable. This is
a administration, this is a Customs and Border patrol that
has gone amok. This absolutely has to sup There.
Speaker 4 (01:38):
Was no danger here, There was no need to detain
anyone here, and there was certainly no need to have
a provocative ass right here where the governor is having
a threat company.
Speaker 1 (01:50):
One guy got arrested selling strawberries. One guy. Look at
her emotional meltdown. She is not stable, all right? That
is an unstafed. Can you imagine you hear about one
guy selling strawberries getting detained by border by ice, and
(02:13):
you put down what you're doing, get up from your desk,
you run down the hallway, get on the elevator, run
across the lobby, downstairs, down the steps, and then down
the sidewalk and you see maybe some media standing out there,
and you flag down the media and you just start
screaming because the strawberry guy got detained. Who Okay, I
(02:39):
think she needs a cocktail break. That's a little much. Now,
Another person who lost their mind over Trump was a
government worker named Sean Dunn. Now, this is the bass
is seventy two years old. She should have outgrown teenage
meltdowns by now, and so should Sean Dunn. He's thirty seven.
(03:05):
He worked in the Justice Department. You'll see what happened.
He had an office job at the Department of Justice,
similar to a paralegal, assisting attorneys in handling a large
volume of cases. He seemed to work with He seemed
to work with foreign countries who needed to have their
(03:28):
citizens extradited from the United States back here. An international
affairs specialist for the Criminal Division. It handles cases of
fugitives abroad, helps foreign countries on extradition matters with their
own fugitives. So if somebody takes off from a foreign country,
it ends up here. I guess we help extradite them back, Yes,
(03:52):
with their own fugitives. So that's what he does. Now
you kind of have to see this, but he's a slim, gentlemen,
balding wearing a pink print shirt and white shorts, a
very summary look, and he walks past some law enforcement
(04:14):
border patrol agents, I think US Customs and Border Protection agents,
and he is so enraged by whatever they're doing. And
it looks like they're just standing there, but he sees them,
and I guess he'd got out for lunch.
Speaker 2 (04:28):
He was hungry, and.
Speaker 1 (04:30):
He took the subway sandwich he was carrying and whipped
it at the Border Protection agent hit the guy right
in the chest with a sandwich. No, the agent did
not hit the ground. Oh, he didn't throw out that hard.
(04:52):
He doesn't look like a guy who could throw it
that hard. Now, I don't know if that was what
kind of sandwich that was. It could be Uh, could
be him and provolone.
Speaker 2 (05:03):
I don't know. I have to go. I gotta go
through the subway list. Uh.
Speaker 1 (05:07):
But what was even better than throwing the sandwich is
his reaction. Now you thought Karen Dass was a little overwrought. Quote,
F you, you f ing fascists.
Speaker 2 (05:21):
Why are you here? I don't want you in my city?
Speaker 1 (05:26):
He was screaming, screaming this within a few inches of
an officer's face. Maybe my city. I didn't know Washington,
d C. Belonged to Sean Dunn. I you fing fascists.
And then he ran because he realized, oh, I just
threw a subway sandwich.
Speaker 2 (05:48):
At a federal law enforcement agent and the cops.
Speaker 1 (05:54):
He got tracked down by cops and they started processing
him and he said, quote, I did it. I threw
a sandwich. So they got a confession right on the
Now he's facing one count. This is a federal offense
of assaulting, resisting, or impeding a federal officer. He faces
(06:17):
up to one year in a federal prison if convicted.
This stuff is too good. They got Judge Janine on
the case, who is now the Washington DC US attorney
Janeine Piro.
Speaker 2 (06:38):
She announced the case herself.
Speaker 1 (06:40):
So let's see, we got the strawberry, we got the
strawberry guy, and we got the subway sandwich guy. Today,
the police are not out there to get pushed around
or beat up. He thought it was funny. Well, he
doesn't think it's funny today because we charged him with
a felony assault on a police officer. So there, this
is an exact quote from Judge Janine. Stick your subway
(07:01):
sandwich somewhere else. So now, the video of this went viral,
by the way, for two nights. The National Guard, Federal
(07:22):
officials have been policing Washington d C. Assisting the Metropolitan
Police Department, and in two days, hundreds of federal officials
have arrested more than one hundred suspects twenty three on Monday,
forty three on Tuesday, forty five on Wednesday.
Speaker 2 (07:44):
How about that?
Speaker 1 (07:45):
Huh, that's one hundred and thirteen, one hundred and thirteen suspects.
That's one hundred and thirteen people that otherwise would have
walked the streets. By the way, Washington DC's police were
defunded as well. Even the mayor or I forget, Yeah,
the mayor said, you know, we only have thirty one hundred.
(08:08):
I wish we had thirty eight hundred. So there's seven
hundred police officers short. You add the seven hundred from
whatever Trump provided, and now, hey, look you're getting one
hundred and thirteen arrests. And you know these guys, these
guys assault somebody or steal from somebody every night. So
(08:28):
that's hundreds of victims that have been protected here, crimes
have been prevented. We've got more coming up. We're gonna
have more on the redistricting, We're going to have more
on what's going on in Washington, d C. And could
(08:50):
you believe Jesse Smolette, that lunatic who made up a
fantasy story about being attacked on the Chicago streets some
years ago by by maga guys who put a rope
around his neck or some such nonsense. Well, he's he's
(09:10):
got a new album coming out that he wants promoted.
Speaker 2 (09:14):
Not making these things up.
Speaker 5 (09:16):
You're listening to John Cobelt on demand from KFI AM
six forty.
Speaker 1 (09:22):
Moistline is tomorrow. We still have a few vacancies. Moistlines
Hotline is eight seven seven, Moist Steady six eight seven seven,
Moist staighty six. Or he's the talkback feature on the
iHeartRadio app. And look, we've given you enough material today.
You're if you're not calling in, you're not you're not
paying attention. Let's get going, all right. So we we
(09:44):
just went through the story of the uh, the Border
Protection agent who got assaulted by a government worker in Washington,
D C. He was part of the detail that's enforcing
the law in Washington. And there was one who works
as as an office worker in the Department of Justice,
(10:06):
and a guy wearing a pink shirt and white shorts
and he's so enraged at seeing officers doing their duty
that he whipped out his subway sandwich and hurled it
at the agent, striking him in the chest. And now
he's being charged with a federal offense and could face
(10:29):
a year in prison. You know he is going to
get savaged in prison. You imagine the guys will come
up to this character. What are you in for? I
threw a ham and cheese sandwich at a federal official.
That's not impressive. Now, we had another one of these
incidents at the LA Courthouse yesterday, and the Los Angeles Times,
(10:56):
what's left of it? The shards of the Times that
still exists in just filled with I think college age wokeheads.
Whoever wrote the headline.
Speaker 2 (11:10):
Help me please.
Speaker 1 (11:12):
Video captures ice arrest outside LA Courthouse, But the first
words are help me please with an exclamation point, and
you figure, oh, this is something heart wrenching, this is
something sad, This might make you cry.
Speaker 2 (11:30):
Here's the story, and this is shocking.
Speaker 1 (11:33):
A man pleaded for help as federal agents carried him
by his arms and legs from LA's largest criminal courthouse Wednesday,
marking another instance another instance of US Immigration and Customs
enforcement using a tactic that has been repeatedly condemned by
the legal community. Who is this guy, Stephen Ronie Reyes,
(11:57):
charged last month with possession of drugs with intent to sell.
He was a drug dealer. They carried an illegal alien
drug dealer out of the courthouse. He was there for
a hearing, and I just took him away to deport him.
I'm supposed to feel sad and sorry.
Speaker 2 (12:18):
Help me.
Speaker 1 (12:18):
Please look at the way they did this. Did you
think it was a kid. He's a drug dealer. He's
trying to poison people. When he exited the courthouse on
Temple Street, he was quickly surrounded by federal law enforcement officers.
According to footage obtained by The Times, well he wasn't
(12:43):
even in the courthouse. He was outside. A fair game.
If you're outside. Several men wearing surgical masks can be
seen detaining Rayis, some putting on the masks once they
realized they were being filmed. A man with a salt
and pepper beard, who appeared to be in charge of
the arrest, responded yes. When a woman in the crowd
(13:05):
asked if he was with ice.
Speaker 2 (13:07):
How come?
Speaker 1 (13:07):
No matter what happens, there's a crowd of people to
get pissed off at ice.
Speaker 2 (13:11):
How do they do this? Why do you care.
Speaker 1 (13:17):
If an illegal alien drug dealer is being taken away?
Speaker 2 (13:21):
What does it matter to you?
Speaker 1 (13:24):
Are we not supposed to take those guys away? What
we're supposed to keep him here? And what give him
a housing? I don't I don't understand. I feel like
I've gone insane, I really do. Reyes can be repeatedly
heard yelling in Spanish screaming, please help me. I don't
(13:48):
know what Spanish is for, Please help me?
Speaker 2 (13:53):
Are you screaming? Please help me?
Speaker 1 (13:54):
Over and over as officers drag him down Temple Street,
and eventually they to his arms in that legs and
carrying him into a truck. Hear the end of the video,
it appears that someone throws water at one of the officers.
Well it's not as it's not as hurtful as the
(14:14):
subway sandwich.
Speaker 2 (14:17):
Depends if it was a glass bottle. Yeah, I'm guessing
it's just the water.
Speaker 5 (14:27):
You know.
Speaker 2 (14:27):
I don't like being wet like that. I'd rather probably
be hit with sandwich.
Speaker 1 (14:31):
You'd rather have mustard on your shirt than the waterys.
It's being resented represented. Get this by the la County
Alternate Public Defender's Office. What is the alternate public Defender's Office.
I don't want to find out who ends up there.
You're not getting a public defender, You're getting an alternate
(14:54):
public defender. Okay, a backup. They're working out of their kitchen.
Now listen to this spokeshole for the office, Jennifer Cheng. Oh,
she's dramatic. She's another one. She's like Karen Bass. I mean,
there's a lot of overload, emotional overload going on here.
(15:18):
These alleged ICE agents, alleged without a warrant or any explanation,
clearly deprived our client of his liberty without due process.
Speaker 2 (15:29):
You're here illegally. You don't get due process.
Speaker 1 (15:33):
Really, they can sneak up behind and and just tossing
on the truck and you're gonna be thrown on a
bus and driven to the border. Really, they can do that.
But what Jennifer Cheng know she only works in for
illegal a public defenders office.
Speaker 2 (15:51):
She goes on.
Speaker 1 (15:52):
It shocks the conscience to see any human violently abducted
by a gang of mostly masked, oh identified individuals. Oh
my god, what one drug dealer gets taken away?
Speaker 2 (16:13):
I gotta read that again.
Speaker 1 (16:15):
It shocks the conscience to see any human violently abducted
by a gang of mostly masked, unidentified individuals. Jennifer Cheng
sit down. Maybe an edible would be would be appropriate here.
Such aggressive ice abductions threaten the integrity of the court
(16:37):
system and discourage participation. Thinks they don't need this guy participating.
He's a drug dealer. He doesn't want to participate. He's
there by.
Speaker 2 (16:47):
Force help me. In Spanish? Is are you to May?
By the way? All right?
Speaker 1 (16:51):
So he was probably screaming, are you to May? Are
you to May? I don't understand.
Speaker 5 (17:01):
You're listening to John Cobels on demand from KFI AM six.
Speaker 2 (17:05):
Forty John Cobelt Show.
Speaker 1 (17:07):
We're on every day from one until four, and then
after four o'clock John Cobelt Show on demand on the
iHeart app. It's the same as the radio show, but
we've had a lot of good stuff. Really today day
has been especially entertaining, so you may want to if
you're just joining us, you may want to go back
later after four and download the first hour of the
(17:29):
of the show.
Speaker 2 (17:30):
But stick with us here.
Speaker 1 (17:32):
We got a lot of head We're going to have
John Fleischmann on. He has a sub stack or his
own website called so does Itmatter dot com. He's a
long time involved in Republican Party politics in California, and
he's got well, two things I want to talk to
him about. One is there's a really bad bill it's
(17:56):
going to pass which would lead to the legislature putting
referendums on the ballot, and it would be all happy
language in order to mislead you and get you to
vote for something, and you wouldn't notice that maybe there's
a horrible tax increase buried inside it. With one party rule,
(18:19):
with a veto proof majority, you know, two thirds plus,
they can pass anything they want. And what they want
to do is have the ability to pass referendum, which
look very appealing to people because look, it's filled with
happy language about children in balloons, but actually it's it's
got poison pills in it. So he's going to come
on at three o'clock at three thirty. State Senator Tony
(18:40):
Strickland from an Huntington beach and it's about Gavin Newsom's
ridiculous pep rally today to start his campaign for a
proposition that two thirds of the state is saying no to,
and that's to redraw the district lines because people don't
(19:01):
want politicians drawing the district lines for Congress. They said
that in a referendum just fifteen.
Speaker 2 (19:07):
Years ago, it passed sixty one to thirty nine.
Speaker 1 (19:10):
Now support for this panel is sixty four to thirty six.
And this is the thing Newsom wants to undo, and
he had the big PEP rally for it today. There
is a lot of insane behavior. Okay, so so far
today we have documented Karen Bass running into the street
(19:34):
screaming about one strawberry merchant selling strawberries on the sidewalk,
got picked up by ice in front of Newsom's pet
rally PEP rally, and Bass actually left her office to
go screaming in the streets. She is fully clothed, right
as far as we know, As far as I know, Yeah,
because when we play it very much sounds like one
(19:56):
of those crazy, half dressed homeless people. Then we told
you about the guy in Washington, d C. Who is
so enraged by Border patrol officials that he whipped a
subway sandwich at one And this guy works for the
Department of Justice office worker. Oh, he's facing a federal felony.
(20:19):
Now we have let's go up the ladder. Here a
leading candidate for the South Carolina Democratic Party nomination for governor.
His name is William McLeod. It's known as Mullens. And
they found him arrested in downtown Charleston wearing only underwear
(20:42):
and shoes.
Speaker 2 (20:47):
And this is what it sounds like, William.
Speaker 6 (20:54):
Can I talk to you? We wait getting off fished.
My guess the charge?
Speaker 7 (21:10):
Hey, Terry Matthew, My flames were starting to sew it
down a little bit.
Speaker 2 (21:17):
Man.
Speaker 7 (21:18):
So what happened was in a in a lawsuit known
as a class action. Okay, which class is stupid? Right,
don't get the money. It's everybody at the top. Now
I know why Roy Martin is nong with us, and no,
I don't think everybody.
Speaker 1 (21:38):
Well, let me explain what you're what you're listening to.
So this guy, William McLeod, he is running for governor.
He's described as a prominent Charleston Democrat and attorney. And uh,
the screaming you heard at the beginning happened in May
in downtown Charleston, and I guess they covered it up.
(22:01):
Somebody filed a freedom of Information Act request and he's
wearing underwear and shoes, screaming. They think he might have
been under the influence of a narcotic I don't know.
Speaker 2 (22:15):
I think I hate to make a judgment.
Speaker 8 (22:17):
What.
Speaker 1 (22:20):
During the arrest, he referred to himself as God and Superman,
and he threatened to kick an opponent's effing teeth in.
But the F bombs are flying fast these days, and
McLeod refused to provide his name, saying it doesn't matter,
my friend, trust me, I'm one of the most just
(22:41):
humans to ever walk this soil. Now people are calling
for him to step down. No, please keep running. Chairman
of the South Carolina Democratic Party, Christale Krystal ee Spain
said it is clear that mister McLeod is navigating profound
(23:02):
challenges and should focus on his mental and emotional well
billing well being. M McLeod thinks his arrest is unlawful.
Let's uh, let's play that again. Let's see, would you
arrest this man again? He's wearing only his underwearing shoes.
Speaker 6 (23:26):
William, can I talk to you? But no, we get
my guess.
Speaker 1 (23:41):
Hey, Tarry Matthew, all right, stop stop, I don't know
arrest No arrest. He just announced he's running for governor
on Monday, and somebody dug up the tape of him
having his drugg douced breakdown today. And I don't think
(24:07):
Trump had anything to do with this one. I think
he did this one on his own. We got more
coming up. Oh, we got to play you another lunatic.
We did this story yesterday, the guy in Van Nyes
who keeps setting off train horns.
Speaker 2 (24:22):
From his home.
Speaker 1 (24:23):
He's been doing it for months and lap D wouldn't
do anything about it, and the local council person wouldn't
do anything about it. Well, finally the police, I guess
they hung around long enough to catch him setting off
the horn and he's been arrested. And we found out
his reason too. We'll play you that clip coming up.
Speaker 5 (24:46):
You're listening to John Cobels on demand from KFI AM
six forty.
Speaker 1 (24:51):
Moist line is eighty seven seven moist st eighty six.
We have a few vacancies eight seven seven moist eighty
six or usually talkback feature on the iHeart Deo app.
So yesterday we brought you the news story. We've got
the story here right, Yeah, Okay, yesterday brought you the
new story A Channel seven covered it of the guy
(25:13):
in Van nys who has lives in a normal residential area,
single family homes, and he keeps setting off what sounds
like a train siren, a train whistle, a big honk honk,
and he sets him off all day, every day now
for months. The residents, the taxpayers, call police, call the
(25:37):
city and say get him to stop this. And the
stupid excuse from LAPD was, you know an officer has
to witness it.
Speaker 2 (25:49):
Then witness it.
Speaker 1 (25:51):
Just sit in the car, have your lunch in front
of the guy's house and hear him turn on the
train siren. It's really loud. It's a big, loud train horn.
They interviewed the guy and he wouldn't explain. He just
(26:12):
said he has a beef with LAPD. Well Channel said
he did a follow up because LAPD, I guess, finally
sat there for a little while and witnessed the horn
going off.
Speaker 2 (26:28):
Here's the story.
Speaker 9 (26:28):
Residents of this neighborhood will sleep easy this evening, both
literally and figuratively, as the man who lives in this
house here behind me that has been blasting loud noises
through the streets is in jail tonight. His arrest nearly
as loud as the blaring horns that brought LAPD here
(26:50):
in the first place.
Speaker 2 (26:55):
He was just yelling right away, so we're like, oh,
there's no missing now, and he's yelling.
Speaker 8 (27:00):
Hear that from a mile away.
Speaker 9 (27:02):
Gary Boyanzian taken into custody Wednesday night after months of
countless complaints from his neighbors for this deafening train horns
that were placed high on a tree in his backyard
and if it wasn't the horn, it was his house
alarm also intentionally set off.
Speaker 2 (27:19):
LAPD.
Speaker 9 (27:19):
Says they responded to his home on Peach Avenue and
Van Nis more than five times and this morning gave
him an administrative citation, but it clearly turned criminal. Boyozzyan
left for several hours and when he returned, police were
nearby watching and listening.
Speaker 8 (27:34):
Came out and thought everything was over. So when out
watered his lawn and a couple of the playing close
vehicles just pulled up real quick and snatched him on
the lawn and he was yelling and screaming and resisting arrest,
and he was screaming in the car. You could hear
the car as it went down the street. Could hear
him screaming.
Speaker 9 (27:49):
Boyanzian was taken away, but the horns haven't been taken
down yet, but with no one home to set them off,
at least it'll be quiet tonight.
Speaker 8 (27:56):
The neighborhood's a huge relief. We know we're not going
to hear that horn, and it's disrupting no matter what
you're doing.
Speaker 9 (28:02):
Earlier today, when we asked him why he sounds off
the alarms, he unleashed an unsubstantiated story about the mafia
trying to kill him, an Lapd assisting in the plot.
Speaker 2 (28:10):
Some of the neighbors we spoke to say, you have
mental health problems. They have mental health problems. My problem.
He wants to kill me.
Speaker 9 (28:17):
My life is in danger.
Speaker 8 (28:18):
If they don't want to seem to understand it, that's
no problem.
Speaker 9 (28:21):
Lapd hasn't said what they've charged him with just yet,
but for neighbors it's moot because for the moment, silence
never sounded so good.
Speaker 7 (28:28):
Finally, Yeah, So now we can relax and just live
our lives the best way we can.
Speaker 9 (28:34):
It is unclear at this point how long he will
be detained. His family members are actually still here right now,
including his mother. She's been here most of the evening.
I tried to talk to them to understand their view
of this entire ordeal, but they did not want to spit.
Speaker 1 (28:47):
Understand, by the way, what a line used by this reporter.
I didn't get the guy's name, Tim Kaputo. Caputo said
in his story, but uh, what has he? How do
you say his name? Boy adsie and floated an unsubstantiated
(29:09):
story about the mafia trying to kill him. Floated a
substantiated story. He's just schizophrenic. He's a paranoid schizophrenic. So
he thinks the mafia and the LAPD are plotting against him.
He's a mental patient. That's why he's screaming. He was
screaming just like that Democratic candidate in Sacramento. It's a
(29:33):
South Carolina for governor. He's screaming like Karen Bass was screaming.
That's all people are doing all day all over the country.
They're just outside screaming. Now he's got a real mental illness.
Unsubstantiated story. So the LAPD could have done this months
(29:55):
ago and they did not. Finally, Channel seven does a
news story. We talked about it for some time yesterday
and now all of a sudden, they do a stakeout,
they witnessed the train horn going off, and they can
(30:15):
arrest him.
Speaker 2 (30:16):
They could have done this months ago. Why wouldn't they.
Speaker 6 (30:19):
They don't care.
Speaker 2 (30:22):
Nobody cares.
Speaker 1 (30:24):
How many dozens, hundreds of people in that neighborhood had
to put up with this for months. How many calls
did they make to LAPD and other city offices. Nobody
did anything. And now it's a great, glorious day because
they finally took a mental patient, a true blue five star,
down to the bone, mental patient who thinks the mafia
(30:45):
and the police are conspiring against him. That's like the
textbook definition of paranoid schizophrenia. And he set that horn
off and his house alarm off for months and nobody
in the city of Los Angeles would do anything about it.
(31:06):
And if that doesn't encapsulate this failed city, this failed government,
and the police could have done something. You know, I
like to be pro police, but this is this is inexcusable.
Speaker 2 (31:19):
This is just outrageous.
Speaker 1 (31:21):
We come back. We are going to have John Fleischman on.
I don't think he's gonna scream, but I don't know. Fleischmann,
long time political observer. He's got a website, so doesnmatter
dot com. And this is about Sacramento's plan to hide
tax increases.
Speaker 2 (31:39):
On the ballot. We'll tell you about it.
Speaker 1 (31:41):
We'll talk about the redistricting PEP rally and all the
opposition against it in the state, Real normal people opposition
that's coming up. Virginia Diagistano Alive the CAFI twenty four
hour Newsroom.
