Speaker 1 (00:00):
Can I Am six forty you're listening to the John
Cobelt Podcast on the iHeartRadio app. All right, it can't.
I Am six forty live everywhere in the iHeartRadio app
John Cobelt Show. We're We're on from one until four
and after four o'clock John Cobelt Show on demand on
the iHeart app. That's the podcast version, so you can
hear what you missed and if you want to follow
us on social media at John Cobelt Radio on all
(00:23):
social media. So tomorrow is going to be entertaining because
the UCLA Chancellor, Gene Block, this guy is only two
months from retirement and he got sucked into the Israeli
Palestinian War and now he's going to get roasted before
Congress tomorrow because there's a House committee and Republicans have
(00:43):
the majority, so they're going to direct a lot of
the questioning. And it's about the way gene Block badly
mishandled the protests. And you know I know this firsthand
because there were helicopters fluttering over our neighborhood. I don't
live that far from UCLA, and for three days, you know,
(01:06):
five o'clock in the morning, but tum tum dum dum
thump for the helicopters all because gene Block. I mean,
I can't sleep because gene Block didn't have a strong
enough character to say, everybody, get the hell out, get up,
go home, gone say it with your stupid protest. And
I'm sick of hearing this argument that it's free speech.
Enough of that. First of all, UCLA can set rules
(01:32):
on how people behave on campus. I don't understand this
to me, At college is like a place of employment.
Free speech doesn't mean you can chant through the halls
of your workplace claiming that the Palestinians are getting screwed.
(01:56):
You can do that on your private time. You can
even do it in public, but you can't get the
way of other people working. And they were blocking Jewish
kids from getting to class period and there were hass
harassing them and intimidating them. That is not free speech.
That is a violation of United States Civil Rights Laws
Title six. Absolutely is a violation. So that's what gen
(02:19):
Block was allowing. He was allowing federal civil rights violations
against Jewish students and Jewish students only. And here's something
I didn't know until like five minutes ago, Gene Block
is Jewish himself. In fact, they had images of Block.
(02:40):
They had signs showing Block with horns and red eyes,
which are anti Jewish themes because Jews are supposed to
be the devil. Can you believe that? That's why I
don't understand about him. He's Jewish. They have pictures of
(03:01):
him with horns and red eyes, and he still wouldn't
do anything to stop it. This is gonna be the
House Committee on Education in the Workforce. The chair as
a woman named Virginia Fox from North Carolina, and she
released the statement. Now, this should be good. The committee
(03:24):
has a clear message for merely mouthed, spineless college leaders.
Congress will not tolerate your dereliction of duty to your
Jewish students. No stone must go unturned while buildings are
being defaced, campus greens are being captured, or graduations are
being ruined. Block wrote in a letter Monday that he's
(03:46):
going to speak honestly and personally about the challenges UCLA
faces and the impact of this pernicious form of hate.
I will continue to insist that anti Semitism as well
as Islamophobia and anti Arab hate. Wait wait, wait, wait, wait,
there were no anti Islamic protests on UCLA campus. Palestinian students,
(04:13):
Arab students, Islamic students were not blocked in any way,
not once that I saw anywhere. There was no story
about that. What is it with these guys. There's a
lot of politicians like this, including Biden and gene Block.
It's like they can't just stick to what happened is
that Jewish students were being harassed, intimidated and pushed around.
(04:37):
That's it the hell you're talking about. And I know
there was a group of supposedly older Jewish guys who
came and attacked some of the Palestinian supporters one night,
and that's what led to a big brawl. But they
did that to defend the Jewish students were under assault.
(05:05):
The La Times has one of those critics say paragraphs.
Critics say that the hearings are an attempt by House
Republicans to use campus unrest for political gain. They point out,
while campus anti Semitic incidents have grown significantly, there have
(05:26):
been no similar hearings on anti Muslim and anti Arab
hatred that have also shot up. I haven't seen any
of those anti Palestinian, anti Arab protests on the campuses.
What is this? What does this critics say? What is
this fake balance here? It's pretty clear who the aggressives were,
(05:49):
not only in the war, but in all these incidents
on college campuses, and everything that they were doing on
campus at UCLA was against UCLA rules. All of it was.
In fact, here's a story that just broke a couple
of hours ago. The UCLA police chief has been removed
(06:11):
and reassigned. His name is John Thomas, and they're doing
all kinds of investigations to see why the police weren't
there to nip this thing in the bud, get this,
to get this taken care of immediately went on for days.
They simply didn't enforce the rules. They didn't enforce the law.
(06:31):
It's like everything in Los Angeles. It's like all the
crimes that aren't prosecuted and all the vagrants that are
allowed to foul our streets, they're simply nothing enforced. And
that extended now to the UCLA Campus Police department. And
(06:54):
you know now UCLA is releasing all sorts of statements
saying that while free spece each is protected, that right
is not absolute. We have legal obligations under federal law
to protect students from discrimination and harassment. Yeah, that's what
I just said. But how come you didn't do it
when it was happening. Why didn't you do it on
day one when you saw this starting to percolate? Why'd
(07:15):
you let it get out of hand? Because you were
so scared and intimidated, so woke. Maybe maybe anti Jewish yourself.
That's what I don't get about block the guy's Jewish?
I mean, did you have any a twinge of anger,
twinge of saying, hey, what the hell? What are you
people doing? This is just people? Well, like Congressman Virginia
(07:37):
Fox said, they're spineless, They're weak, They're afraid of confrontation.
They are afraid of standing up for what is good
and what is right. There is a lot of that
these days. There are a lot of people walking around
muttering to themselves about how this is terrible and that
is terrible, but they won't lift a finger to do
what's right and good and protect the people who are
being attacked. Now, you know what? The else again, the
(07:59):
time I had today an interesting contrast story. We'll get
to that this next, because this, to me really focuses
on one of the great divides with all these stupid,
woke protests. These are rich white kids. Rich white kids
have been behind, you know, whether it's Antifa, whether it's
these college protests, whether it's these homeless protests, every time
(08:25):
the city tried to clean up a homeless encamping rich
white kids. You go to cal State La, which is
what this story is about, and you have students who
were mostly Hispanic working class kids are working. In fact,
a lot of the students they're older and or they're
(08:46):
working at jobs in addition to going to school, and
they don't have the time to dabble in protests in
campus unrest. They simply don't. They got to go to
earn money to pay for their tuition and to eat
and to take care of their families. It's quite a
shocking difference between that and these these silly, rich fools
(09:10):
at UCLA who created so much trouble. None of them,
by the way, would ever join None of them would
ever join Hamas and join the Hamas military. Right, you
really want to stop the injustice you think you see
(09:30):
you can go to Gaza yourself and help out, But
they don't. We come back, we'll talk about Cal State La.
Boy is that a different world and a better world.
Speaker 2 (09:41):
You're listening to John Cobelt on demand from KFI AM
six forty.
Speaker 1 (09:47):
Now, first segment. We told you about Gene Block, who
is the UCLA chancellor, and he allowed all the mayhem
to get out of control on the UCLA campus. And
the Times did a fascinating profile on cal State La.
It's not the same demographic and they don't They have
a little bit of a protest, but nothing out of control.
(10:08):
Because the one thing that's not spoken here is at UCLA,
especially all the elite schools, the Ivy League schools, these
are all like either rich white kids or foreign kids,
much of them, you know, many of them from Palestine
and other sympathetic nations, and they have created the big ruckus.
Their families have a lot of money, and you compare
(10:30):
it to cal State La, where three quarters of the
kids or Latino, it's working class. It's poor in a
lot of cases. Some of them are older. And not
only they are going to classes, they have to work
to pay for their tuition, to pay for food and
so literally, if you go to cal State La, which
is what the Times did, and talk to the students,
(10:50):
they go we don't have time for this crap like
at UCLA. Those are the privileged people at UCLA. They
can spend all day screaming their stupid slogans, beating drums
and their childish rhymes. So they went, uh So, it's
seventy five percent Hispanic at cal State LA. But Asians
(11:13):
and whites make up sixty percent of the student body
at UCLA, and seventeen percent of the graduate students come
from other nations. And you know that that's a big deal.
There are so many foreign kids here, and they are
the ones who are bringing like a different mindset to
what America ought to be doing, because they're looking at
(11:34):
it from the interests that they have back in the homeland,
and they're whipping up a lot of these rich white kids.
In fact, in fact, most of the woke people in
America are white and wealthy. Remember the four WS wealthy
white that's three w's, wealthy white women, wealthy white woke women. Yes,
(11:54):
that's the four ws. And oddly, most of the minorities
that the wealthy white woke women are fighting for don't
share their politics and they vote Democrat, but they're not
into all the nonsense we've been plagued with the last
four years. The Times interviews Shauna Andrews, nursing student at
(12:14):
cal State LA. Now here's her life. She's twenty nine
years old and she's graduating, you know, at the age
of twenty nine. But she says she doesn't have time
for the bandwidth to play close attention to Gaza. She's
a full time student and she has to care for
someone in her family who has dementia. There's other things
that grab my focus rather than something that goes on overseas.
(12:38):
The UCLA kids that have been screaming for weeks, they
don't have these problems. Brian Hernandez, he's twenty five information
systems major. He said, you need a little bit of
privilege to actually protest that type of way, to sit
in a random place and just hang out. I can't
spend days sleeping on a campus. I got a job,
I got class And that is like the Stark difference.
(13:03):
You are not hearing underprivileged people screaming and yelling. These
are not people who've suffered much in life. These people
have the luxury to play, act, to perform, to pretend
that their life has been compromised in some way by
whatever's going on. They're ten thousand miles from the war.
(13:26):
None of them are volunteering. Nobody's volunteering to join Hamas.
By the way, speaking Amas, did you see the stories
we built a peer in order to have a place
to distribute all the food, all the humanitarian aid for Gaza.
Do you know hardly any of that's getting to the people.
(13:47):
Most of the trucks are getting broken into by Hamas.
Hamas is stealing the food and then selling it to
the Gaza people. Instead of it going from the US
and Europe free to the Gaza people, it's being stolen
by Hamas, who's making a profit on it, which tells
you everything you need to know about Hamas. All right,
(14:08):
we come back. We got to get We're gonna play
a story from Channel four and it's about the guy
who stabbed these German tourists in Santa Monica. I have
parked at this parking garage probably hundreds of times, and
it's why I don't go to Santa Monica anymore. I mean,
(14:28):
I could not give my wife a million dollars to
go to Santa Monica because we won't go to the
Third Street promenade. And this is right around the corner
from it. And this is the parking garage we always
went to, and you had, you had these German tourists
get stabbed, and we'll we'll give you, We'll give you
the report it was. It was German tourists stabbed by
(14:50):
a crazy guy. It's coming up.
Speaker 2 (14:52):
You're listening to John Cobel's on demand from KFI AM sixty.
Speaker 1 (14:59):
So there's there's two stories, violent stories which speak to
the degradation of Los Angeles that nobody wants to do
anything about. One of them involves a guy who just
out of the blue started stabbing two German tourists. Now
I can imagine the headlines that are all over Europe
(15:20):
with this particular case. These tourists didn't know that. You
don't go to the Third Street Promenade anymore. Maybe ten
years ago you go, but you don't go now. Because
I was just talking about it with friends last night
we had dinner, and like, nobody goes there because this happens,
and this is in a parking garage right around the corner.
And let's set it up with a report from NBC
four ted Chin.
Speaker 3 (15:41):
People were a gas at those crimes. I'm a gas too.
I want the city to be safe.
Speaker 4 (15:48):
Santa Monica Mayor Phil Brock says. In this latest attack
on Sunday, which happened near the parking structure on Fourth
and Broadway, a man believed to be homeless stabbed two
people and assaulted another two German tour one of them.
Speaker 1 (16:01):
In critical condition.
Speaker 4 (16:02):
It comes less than a week after police say a
homeless man attacked a woman at the beach and dragged
her by her hair before witnesses intervened.
Speaker 5 (16:09):
It's an environment for families to come and enjoy their
time on the weekend, and it is not the kind
of place where you expect this level of crime.
Speaker 4 (16:19):
Jessica Rogers of the Santa Monica Coalition, a group consisting
of people who live and work in Santa Monica and
which grabbed attention by putting up signs last year saying
Santa Monica is not safe, says the city needs many
more police officers to deter crime, especially around parking structures.
Speaker 5 (16:36):
Without safe parking structures in downtown Santa Monica, we are
going to lose all tourism and all opportunities for people
to come enjoy our community.
Speaker 4 (16:48):
Mayor Brox says fifty five officers have been added in
the last two years, but says the city doesn't have
the funds to reach its goal of fifty more. He
says he's gone to federal, state, and county leaders ask
for more help to deal with homelessness and mental illness.
He says there needs to be tougher laws to compel
people to get help.
Speaker 3 (17:07):
Our city is safe for visitors, it's safe for residents,
and we're doing our best to make it safer.
Speaker 4 (17:14):
Twenty nine year old Larrysadanielle has now been charged with
attempted murder and assault with a deadly weapon.
Speaker 1 (17:20):
Is scheduled to be arranged tomorrow. Yeah, would you go
to a parking garage near the Third Street Promenade.
Speaker 6 (17:26):
Well, to be honest with you, I was just there
about two weeks ago, but I wasn't alone, and it
is scary. Yeah, it is scary, but I would never
I would never go by myself. But we happen to
be going to a restaurant. It was actually Mother's Day
that was.
Speaker 1 (17:39):
Across the street, so it's daylight. It was daylight, but.
Speaker 6 (17:45):
I've been I have been there numerous times in the
evening too.
Speaker 1 (17:50):
I we used to go there constantly, and the last
time we went there at night, my wife wanted to
return something at a store, and it was the scariest
walk we've had in many because there's all these alley
ways and driveways, and then all these people hang out
underneath awnings and there's a lot of abandoned stores, and
my head was spinning around like crazy. I'm looking here,
(18:11):
I'm looking there, every little twitch, all kinds of weird guys,
people shouting, people gesturing, just acting insane.
Speaker 6 (18:18):
So many stores that I used to go to aren't
there anymore. On the same thing with the restaurants because
of all this craziness.
Speaker 1 (18:24):
No, and like that story I read yesterday from sf Gate,
no one will admit he took twenty one paragraphs before
in this story they said that homelessness is a problem.
Twenty one paragraphs. That's the first line in the story.
Because based on all the times I've gone there and
all the people I've talked to, everybody says the same thing.
(18:45):
They're afraid to go because and it's not even homeless,
that's some other word. These are mentally ill drug addicts
that are running amuck. And that's it. That's the beginning
end of the story. If you take away the mentally
ill drug addicts and just ban them from the street,
stores will open up, restaurants will open up. People will
come in because it's a beautiful setting. The concept of
(19:06):
the Third Street Promenade is terrific. When I first came here,
I couldn't believe how so entertainment. Yeah, and they had
sports barns and they had a lot of seating like
out in the sidewalk area, and Barnes and Noble. They
had a huge bookstore there and they've ruined everything. For
(19:27):
what part of it was is they let all the
criminals run them up during the twenty twenty riots, during
the George Floyd thing, they didn't defend all the storefronts.
A lot of those guys went out of business.
Speaker 6 (19:38):
And what really stinks is that the beach is what
a block away, right, and so even walking down there
is so incredibly scary. I mean, I thought at one point, hey,
maybe one day I'd live in Santa Monica. And I
was telling that to somebody the other day that I
always thought it'd be really cool to live in Santa
Monica because of the stores and the restaurants and the beach.
And they said, are you crazy.
Speaker 1 (19:58):
Yeah, no, I remember we thought about living there years ago.
And and you know that, we've had a number of
business people come on the air over the years and
they say they go to the mayor, they go to
the city council with the complaints, and they just get
stared at it because you're you're violating their religion. And
in their religion, you know, homeless people are at the
at the top of the hierarchy. They're they're now, they're
(20:19):
now worshiped, they're protected species. None of them helped the homeless.
Homeless end up dying in the streets of overdoses. I
don't understand it. It's a weird cult. Now and here
here's a here's a related story. One of the women
who got attacked at the Venice Canals back in early April.
(20:40):
You've remember two were beaten. One of them would get
interviewed in the news, but the second one we never
heard about. And there was a reason. She was brain dead.
She was visiting from Massachusetts and staying at Airbnb. And
they don't have an identity, but I guess she's been
in a coma now for about six weeks. And finally,
(21:01):
uh uh, she she died and Uh the the other
the other woman, Uh has been released from the hospital
but can't she can't work for some time because she
was so badly beaten. She was the one. Remember her
teeth were knocked out. Uh. The thing is I did.
(21:23):
All you have to do is take the bad guys
and put them away, And everyone from Georgia Gascon to
uh Karen Bass and everybody in the city council just
refuses to do it. And I don't understand. And then
they come out with their quote, Oh that's I mean this.
Phil Brock, the mayor Santa Monica, people were aghast at
those crimes. I'm a gas too. We've had Phil Brock
(21:44):
on the air. Everybody comes out and they have their quote, Oh,
I'm a gas. Oh this is dreadful, what a horrible tragedy.
So why don't you get these people removed. Beverly Hills
does it, Malibu does it. West Hollywood does a good
job of it. Culver City does the standalone cities do it? Oh,
I don't know why. Santa Monica just say no. Nobody
gets to lay here in the streets. It's simple, just
(22:06):
say no, you can't do it. You have ordinances you
enforce the ordinances. They're legal, they're constitutional. This is nonsense,
and they won't do it. And then people get stabbed,
they get murdered, and they get bludgeoned. I and then
stores close all over the place, and restaurants close all
over the place, and nobody wants to take a walk
(22:27):
on the walking paths or go to those beaches, and
everybody just sits and stairs. And this is the one
thing I never saw before in my life until the
last few years. And I've never seen anywhere else I
lived at any other time. It's only here right now,
like the last like seven years that I've seen people
just stare and allow all of society to crumble around
(22:51):
them and watch people get you know, get stabbed and beaten.
It's just but I guess, I mean, is it because
people just are there, heads always down and they're scrolling
on their phone. They just don't notice. All right, We've
got more coming up.
Speaker 2 (23:05):
You're listening to John Cobels on demand from KFI AM
six forty.
Speaker 1 (23:11):
We're gonna have Codway coming in in just a few minutes.
They will not stop irritating us. We've talked about Scott
Wiener many times. He is the state senator from San Francisco,
and he is the act. I mean, he is the
prince of the nanny state. There's nothing that he won't
(23:33):
try to regulate or control. And the latest is he
wants to control how much people speed. And they are
passing a bill. The Senate already did. They passed a
bill that would if you go ten miles over the
speed limit, your car is going to start to beat
(23:54):
and it won't stop. It will just bet bet beep beep.
So you can't cruise down or open freeway late at night.
You know, if the speed limit is sixty, once you
hit seventy one, it's going beat beep, beep, beep beep.
Maybe you're being chased by a Grema doesn't beat beepe
(24:15):
I can't stand all the beeping inside my car. I
really mean this. It's like at my car is relatively quiet,
it does do the beat beep for the seat belt.
Can't get around that, but I can't stand. I've had
rental cars where you get the beat beep if you
(24:36):
drift out of your lane just half an inch, beat beepep.
Then you drift a little to the left, beat beepep.
And now if you're speeding, it's gonna bet beep beep.
It makes me crazy. Oh and then that little button
that cuts off your motor when you're at a stoplight,
or if you just pause your car anywhere on the street,
(24:56):
it stops it and then it takes a couple of
seconds to restart. All this is incredibly annoying. They claim
that California has seen a horrifying spike in the deaths
of drivers, pedestrians, and cyclists over the years, and especially
since the the COVID nineteen pandemic. What the reason I
(25:22):
told you the big increase, because I've looked at the maps,
is homeless people are getting run over in the city
of Los Angeles. Because there's a map where there's little
blue dots every time a pedestrian got hit and killed.
The blue dots are in the neighborhoods with First of all,
there's a lot of crime, and there's a lot of
homeless people. Basically, there are no laws anymore. Nobody's handing
(25:43):
out speeding tickets because nobody is stopping all the gun violence,
and nobody's stopping all the homeless people wandering around in
the streets. And that's a big part of the spike.
But like going back to the last story, they won't
get the homeless people off the street. Instead, they're going
to penalize you if you're on an open highway late
(26:03):
at night. I just and it says crashes involving alcohol
and drug impair driving. Well, people who are drinking too
much and doing too many drugs are not going to
be stopped by the beep beep beep. They're not going
to care. They're drunk and they're high. The people who
(26:27):
caused most of the damage. There are already laws against speeding,
and there's laws against all the things that people do.
Doesn't stop them because they're drinking and doing drugs. Now
they've legalized a lot of the drugs, So what do
you think is going to happen. Look what they did
in Oregon. They legalized all the drugs. They legalized all
(26:48):
the drugs, including cocaine, heroin, fentanyl, meth. None of it
was against the law anymore. And then they got shocked
that dead bodies are piled up everywhere. Then they have
a story that pedestrians are twice as likely to be
hit by electric vehicles because the evs don't make any noise.
That's also driving up the number of pedestrian deaths. The
(27:11):
evs seriously, a researcher at the London School of Hygiene
and Tropical Medicine said, said the because the ev cars
are so quiet, people are getting hit and run over.
(27:32):
Not so with a gasoline engine, because you can hear
the because you teach the little kids, it's like you stop,
you look, you listen. Well there's no more listen. So
the state has policies between letting the homeless wander free
in the streets and promoting evs. They're increasing the number
of people getting run over, and then they want speed limit,
(27:54):
a speed limit beat to go off. Even though people
aren't run over on the freeways. There's no deaths on
the freeways because people are getting flattened conways here.
Speaker 7 (28:06):
Hey, now, hey, I think we need before we get
another one of these overpasses for the mountain lions. I
think an overpass for the homeless chaps, you know, because
they're the ones walking across the freeway. Yeah, those are
the only guys and getting wiped out. Yeah yeah, but
otherwise stay out the freeway. All right, we've got UCLA.
They reassigned the police chief. I mean I guess the
(28:27):
criticism response to the violence on campus Dodgers stars show
Hey Otani. I don't if you heard about him. He's
been in the news, but he just bought a seven
almost eight million dollar mansion in Lacha, YadA, flint Ridge.
Speaker 1 (28:41):
That's a beautiful, beautiful area. Yes, you know it, and
you know what that means.
Speaker 7 (28:44):
He's gonna have kids because the only reason you moved
to that area is for the great schools.
Speaker 1 (28:50):
He's gonna have kids. Yeah, I know. Well he's got
a wife. Yeah, marked by words.
Speaker 7 (28:54):
Two years from now, little show Hey Otani's walking around.
And then we also have an eleven year old who
graduated from Southern California College. Eleven years old and he
graduated from college. Going on with the parents? You let
that kid do that? What's going on with them? I
would never let that happen, and my daughter's proof of that.
(29:17):
Let him stay home and be miserable, right, You let
him grow up, you know, you let him get be
a kid and.
Speaker 1 (29:21):
Go out and play and enjoying the kids, because like
that are miniature adults. I know, I know. I guess
they like the early Bill Gates types. Yeah, it's it's
not because the kid was pushed. It was because this
is what what his brain allows him to do.
Speaker 7 (29:37):
Right, But when I was eleven years old, I'd get
home when the street lights went on. And he's graduating college. Yeah,
I only graduated in high school. We had six hundred
eighty hour class. I think it was six hundred and
twelve percent. Didn't kno get out, John, He didn't knock
it out. You didn't seem like I never looked at
you said what, I bet he was a great student.
Speaker 1 (30:00):
Yeah, you know, I I you know.
Speaker 7 (30:02):
But then I went to college and I was on
the first semester of college. I was on a probation
because I had such crappy grades in high school. And
I got a three point five eight, and I'm like, wow,
this is easy.
Speaker 1 (30:13):
And then I let it slide again.
Speaker 7 (30:14):
Yeah, well college, by the way, college is easier than
high school.
Speaker 1 (30:19):
Yes, it's found that out with my hundred percent. You
know what. They had their struggles in high school, that's right. College, Yeah,
a breeze for all them.
Speaker 7 (30:27):
You just got to get through high school, learn how
to socialize, you can, you know, screw around in high school,
and then when you get to college, every class is
you know, and if you're falling behind, the teachers going
to help you. They fellow students are going to help you,
because those are the kids that really want to learn.
Speaker 1 (30:41):
You know, these high schools.
Speaker 7 (30:42):
Are filled with If there's thirty kids, fifteen of them
don't want to be there.
Speaker 1 (30:45):
Sure guys like you, that's right, that's right. Diged off
with these guys. You were designed for a radio career.
Speaker 7 (30:51):
I got an I got an A in a class
with a guy named God.
Speaker 1 (30:55):
I can't even think of his name anymore. Anyway.
Speaker 7 (30:57):
He was a big racetrack fan, and he said I
didn't have to to class if I would run bets
to sant Anita in back for him.
Speaker 1 (31:04):
A plus. There you go.
Speaker 7 (31:06):
Yeah, Coach o' harris, the guys, that's what it was, kiwas.
Speaker 1 (31:09):
I bless him. Crozer's got the names along with you
live the CAFI twenty four hour News Room. Hey, you've
been listening to the John Cobalt Show podcast. You can
always hear the show live on KFI AM six forty
from one to four pm every Monday through Friday, and
of course anytime on demand on the iHeartRadio app
Can I Am six forty you're listening to the John
Cobelt Podcast on the iHeartRadio app. All right, it can't.
I Am six forty live everywhere in the iHeartRadio app
John Cobelt Show. We're We're on from one until four
and after four o'clock John Cobelt Show on demand on
the iHeart app. That's the podcast version, so you can
hear what you missed and if you want to follow
us on social media at John Cobelt Radio on all
(00:23):
social media. So tomorrow is going to be entertaining because
the UCLA Chancellor, Gene Block, this guy is only two
months from retirement and he got sucked into the Israeli
Palestinian War and now he's going to get roasted before
Congress tomorrow because there's a House committee and Republicans have
(00:43):
the majority, so they're going to direct a lot of
the questioning. And it's about the way gene Block badly
mishandled the protests. And you know I know this firsthand
because there were helicopters fluttering over our neighborhood. I don't
live that far from UCLA, and for three days, you know,
(01:06):
five o'clock in the morning, but tum tum dum dum
thump for the helicopters all because gene Block. I mean,
I can't sleep because gene Block didn't have a strong
enough character to say, everybody, get the hell out, get up,
go home, gone say it with your stupid protest. And
I'm sick of hearing this argument that it's free speech.
Enough of that. First of all, UCLA can set rules
(01:32):
on how people behave on campus. I don't understand this
to me, At college is like a place of employment.
Free speech doesn't mean you can chant through the halls
of your workplace claiming that the Palestinians are getting screwed.
(01:56):
You can do that on your private time. You can
even do it in public, but you can't get the
way of other people working. And they were blocking Jewish
kids from getting to class period and there were hass
harassing them and intimidating them. That is not free speech.
That is a violation of United States Civil Rights Laws
Title six. Absolutely is a violation. So that's what gen
(02:19):
Block was allowing. He was allowing federal civil rights violations
against Jewish students and Jewish students only. And here's something
I didn't know until like five minutes ago, Gene Block
is Jewish himself. In fact, they had images of Block.
(02:40):
They had signs showing Block with horns and red eyes,
which are anti Jewish themes because Jews are supposed to
be the devil. Can you believe that? That's why I
don't understand about him. He's Jewish. They have pictures of
(03:01):
him with horns and red eyes, and he still wouldn't
do anything to stop it. This is gonna be the
House Committee on Education in the Workforce. The chair as
a woman named Virginia Fox from North Carolina, and she
released the statement. Now, this should be good. The committee
(03:24):
has a clear message for merely mouthed, spineless college leaders.
Congress will not tolerate your dereliction of duty to your
Jewish students. No stone must go unturned while buildings are
being defaced, campus greens are being captured, or graduations are
being ruined. Block wrote in a letter Monday that he's
(03:46):
going to speak honestly and personally about the challenges UCLA
faces and the impact of this pernicious form of hate.
I will continue to insist that anti Semitism as well
as Islamophobia and anti Arab hate. Wait wait, wait, wait, wait,
there were no anti Islamic protests on UCLA campus. Palestinian students,
(04:13):
Arab students, Islamic students were not blocked in any way,
not once that I saw anywhere. There was no story
about that. What is it with these guys. There's a
lot of politicians like this, including Biden and gene Block.
It's like they can't just stick to what happened is
that Jewish students were being harassed, intimidated and pushed around.
(04:37):
That's it the hell you're talking about. And I know
there was a group of supposedly older Jewish guys who
came and attacked some of the Palestinian supporters one night,
and that's what led to a big brawl. But they
did that to defend the Jewish students were under assault.
(05:05):
The La Times has one of those critics say paragraphs.
Critics say that the hearings are an attempt by House
Republicans to use campus unrest for political gain. They point out,
while campus anti Semitic incidents have grown significantly, there have
(05:26):
been no similar hearings on anti Muslim and anti Arab
hatred that have also shot up. I haven't seen any
of those anti Palestinian, anti Arab protests on the campuses.
What is this? What does this critics say? What is
this fake balance here? It's pretty clear who the aggressives were,
(05:49):
not only in the war, but in all these incidents
on college campuses, and everything that they were doing on
campus at UCLA was against UCLA rules. All of it was.
In fact, here's a story that just broke a couple
of hours ago. The UCLA police chief has been removed
(06:11):
and reassigned. His name is John Thomas, and they're doing
all kinds of investigations to see why the police weren't
there to nip this thing in the bud, get this,
to get this taken care of immediately went on for days.
They simply didn't enforce the rules. They didn't enforce the law.
(06:31):
It's like everything in Los Angeles. It's like all the
crimes that aren't prosecuted and all the vagrants that are
allowed to foul our streets, they're simply nothing enforced. And
that extended now to the UCLA Campus Police department. And
(06:54):
you know now UCLA is releasing all sorts of statements
saying that while free spece each is protected, that right
is not absolute. We have legal obligations under federal law
to protect students from discrimination and harassment. Yeah, that's what
I just said. But how come you didn't do it
when it was happening. Why didn't you do it on
day one when you saw this starting to percolate? Why'd
(07:15):
you let it get out of hand? Because you were
so scared and intimidated, so woke. Maybe maybe anti Jewish yourself.
That's what I don't get about block the guy's Jewish?
I mean, did you have any a twinge of anger,
twinge of saying, hey, what the hell? What are you
people doing? This is just people? Well, like Congressman Virginia
(07:37):
Fox said, they're spineless, They're weak, They're afraid of confrontation.
They are afraid of standing up for what is good
and what is right. There is a lot of that
these days. There are a lot of people walking around
muttering to themselves about how this is terrible and that
is terrible, but they won't lift a finger to do
what's right and good and protect the people who are
being attacked. Now, you know what? The else again, the
(07:59):
time I had today an interesting contrast story. We'll get
to that this next, because this, to me really focuses
on one of the great divides with all these stupid,
woke protests. These are rich white kids. Rich white kids
have been behind, you know, whether it's Antifa, whether it's
these college protests, whether it's these homeless protests, every time
(08:25):
the city tried to clean up a homeless encamping rich
white kids. You go to cal State La, which is
what this story is about, and you have students who
were mostly Hispanic working class kids are working. In fact,
a lot of the students they're older and or they're
(08:46):
working at jobs in addition to going to school, and
they don't have the time to dabble in protests in
campus unrest. They simply don't. They got to go to
earn money to pay for their tuition and to eat
and to take care of their families. It's quite a
shocking difference between that and these these silly, rich fools
(09:10):
at UCLA who created so much trouble. None of them,
by the way, would ever join None of them would
ever join Hamas and join the Hamas military. Right, you
really want to stop the injustice you think you see
(09:30):
you can go to Gaza yourself and help out, But
they don't. We come back, we'll talk about Cal State La.
Boy is that a different world and a better world.
Speaker 2 (09:41):
You're listening to John Cobelt on demand from KFI AM
six forty.
Speaker 1 (09:47):
Now, first segment. We told you about Gene Block, who
is the UCLA chancellor, and he allowed all the mayhem
to get out of control on the UCLA campus. And
the Times did a fascinating profile on cal State La.
It's not the same demographic and they don't They have
a little bit of a protest, but nothing out of control.
(10:08):
Because the one thing that's not spoken here is at UCLA,
especially all the elite schools, the Ivy League schools, these
are all like either rich white kids or foreign kids,
much of them, you know, many of them from Palestine
and other sympathetic nations, and they have created the big ruckus.
Their families have a lot of money, and you compare
(10:30):
it to cal State La, where three quarters of the
kids or Latino, it's working class. It's poor in a
lot of cases. Some of them are older. And not
only they are going to classes, they have to work
to pay for their tuition, to pay for food and
so literally, if you go to cal State La, which
is what the Times did, and talk to the students,
(10:50):
they go we don't have time for this crap like
at UCLA. Those are the privileged people at UCLA. They
can spend all day screaming their stupid slogans, beating drums
and their childish rhymes. So they went, uh So, it's
seventy five percent Hispanic at cal State LA. But Asians
(11:13):
and whites make up sixty percent of the student body
at UCLA, and seventeen percent of the graduate students come
from other nations. And you know that that's a big deal.
There are so many foreign kids here, and they are
the ones who are bringing like a different mindset to
what America ought to be doing, because they're looking at
(11:34):
it from the interests that they have back in the homeland,
and they're whipping up a lot of these rich white kids.
In fact, in fact, most of the woke people in
America are white and wealthy. Remember the four WS wealthy
white that's three w's, wealthy white women, wealthy white woke women. Yes,
(11:54):
that's the four ws. And oddly, most of the minorities
that the wealthy white woke women are fighting for don't
share their politics and they vote Democrat, but they're not
into all the nonsense we've been plagued with the last
four years. The Times interviews Shauna Andrews, nursing student at
(12:14):
cal State LA. Now here's her life. She's twenty nine
years old and she's graduating, you know, at the age
of twenty nine. But she says she doesn't have time
for the bandwidth to play close attention to Gaza. She's
a full time student and she has to care for
someone in her family who has dementia. There's other things
that grab my focus rather than something that goes on overseas.
(12:38):
The UCLA kids that have been screaming for weeks, they
don't have these problems. Brian Hernandez, he's twenty five information
systems major. He said, you need a little bit of
privilege to actually protest that type of way, to sit
in a random place and just hang out. I can't
spend days sleeping on a campus. I got a job,
I got class And that is like the Stark difference.
(13:03):
You are not hearing underprivileged people screaming and yelling. These
are not people who've suffered much in life. These people
have the luxury to play, act, to perform, to pretend
that their life has been compromised in some way by
whatever's going on. They're ten thousand miles from the war.
(13:26):
None of them are volunteering. Nobody's volunteering to join Hamas.
By the way, speaking Amas, did you see the stories
we built a peer in order to have a place
to distribute all the food, all the humanitarian aid for Gaza.
Do you know hardly any of that's getting to the people.
(13:47):
Most of the trucks are getting broken into by Hamas.
Hamas is stealing the food and then selling it to
the Gaza people. Instead of it going from the US
and Europe free to the Gaza people, it's being stolen
by Hamas, who's making a profit on it, which tells
you everything you need to know about Hamas. All right,
(14:08):
we come back. We got to get We're gonna play
a story from Channel four and it's about the guy
who stabbed these German tourists in Santa Monica. I have
parked at this parking garage probably hundreds of times, and
it's why I don't go to Santa Monica anymore. I mean,
(14:28):
I could not give my wife a million dollars to
go to Santa Monica because we won't go to the
Third Street promenade. And this is right around the corner
from it. And this is the parking garage we always
went to, and you had, you had these German tourists
get stabbed, and we'll we'll give you, We'll give you
the report it was. It was German tourists stabbed by
(14:50):
a crazy guy. It's coming up.
Speaker 2 (14:52):
You're listening to John Cobel's on demand from KFI AM sixty.
Speaker 1 (14:59):
So there's there's two stories, violent stories which speak to
the degradation of Los Angeles that nobody wants to do
anything about. One of them involves a guy who just
out of the blue started stabbing two German tourists. Now
I can imagine the headlines that are all over Europe
(15:20):
with this particular case. These tourists didn't know that. You
don't go to the Third Street Promenade anymore. Maybe ten
years ago you go, but you don't go now. Because
I was just talking about it with friends last night
we had dinner, and like, nobody goes there because this happens,
and this is in a parking garage right around the corner.
And let's set it up with a report from NBC
four ted Chin.
Speaker 3 (15:41):
People were a gas at those crimes. I'm a gas too.
I want the city to be safe.
Speaker 4 (15:48):
Santa Monica Mayor Phil Brock says. In this latest attack
on Sunday, which happened near the parking structure on Fourth
and Broadway, a man believed to be homeless stabbed two
people and assaulted another two German tour one of them.
Speaker 1 (16:01):
In critical condition.
Speaker 4 (16:02):
It comes less than a week after police say a
homeless man attacked a woman at the beach and dragged
her by her hair before witnesses intervened.
Speaker 5 (16:09):
It's an environment for families to come and enjoy their
time on the weekend, and it is not the kind
of place where you expect this level of crime.
Speaker 4 (16:19):
Jessica Rogers of the Santa Monica Coalition, a group consisting
of people who live and work in Santa Monica and
which grabbed attention by putting up signs last year saying
Santa Monica is not safe, says the city needs many
more police officers to deter crime, especially around parking structures.
Speaker 5 (16:36):
Without safe parking structures in downtown Santa Monica, we are
going to lose all tourism and all opportunities for people
to come enjoy our community.
Speaker 4 (16:48):
Mayor Brox says fifty five officers have been added in
the last two years, but says the city doesn't have
the funds to reach its goal of fifty more. He
says he's gone to federal, state, and county leaders ask
for more help to deal with homelessness and mental illness.
He says there needs to be tougher laws to compel
people to get help.
Speaker 3 (17:07):
Our city is safe for visitors, it's safe for residents,
and we're doing our best to make it safer.
Speaker 4 (17:14):
Twenty nine year old Larrysadanielle has now been charged with
attempted murder and assault with a deadly weapon.
Speaker 1 (17:20):
Is scheduled to be arranged tomorrow. Yeah, would you go
to a parking garage near the Third Street Promenade.
Speaker 6 (17:26):
Well, to be honest with you, I was just there
about two weeks ago, but I wasn't alone, and it
is scary. Yeah, it is scary, but I would never
I would never go by myself. But we happen to
be going to a restaurant. It was actually Mother's Day
that was.
Speaker 1 (17:39):
Across the street, so it's daylight. It was daylight, but.
Speaker 6 (17:45):
I've been I have been there numerous times in the
evening too.
Speaker 1 (17:50):
I we used to go there constantly, and the last
time we went there at night, my wife wanted to
return something at a store, and it was the scariest
walk we've had in many because there's all these alley
ways and driveways, and then all these people hang out
underneath awnings and there's a lot of abandoned stores, and
my head was spinning around like crazy. I'm looking here,
(18:11):
I'm looking there, every little twitch, all kinds of weird guys,
people shouting, people gesturing, just acting insane.
Speaker 6 (18:18):
So many stores that I used to go to aren't
there anymore. On the same thing with the restaurants because
of all this craziness.
Speaker 1 (18:24):
No, and like that story I read yesterday from sf Gate,
no one will admit he took twenty one paragraphs before
in this story they said that homelessness is a problem.
Twenty one paragraphs. That's the first line in the story.
Because based on all the times I've gone there and
all the people I've talked to, everybody says the same thing.
(18:45):
They're afraid to go because and it's not even homeless,
that's some other word. These are mentally ill drug addicts
that are running amuck. And that's it. That's the beginning
end of the story. If you take away the mentally
ill drug addicts and just ban them from the street,
stores will open up, restaurants will open up. People will
come in because it's a beautiful setting. The concept of
(19:06):
the Third Street Promenade is terrific. When I first came here,
I couldn't believe how so entertainment. Yeah, and they had
sports barns and they had a lot of seating like
out in the sidewalk area, and Barnes and Noble. They
had a huge bookstore there and they've ruined everything. For
(19:27):
what part of it was is they let all the
criminals run them up during the twenty twenty riots, during
the George Floyd thing, they didn't defend all the storefronts.
A lot of those guys went out of business.
Speaker 6 (19:38):
And what really stinks is that the beach is what
a block away, right, and so even walking down there
is so incredibly scary. I mean, I thought at one point, hey,
maybe one day I'd live in Santa Monica. And I
was telling that to somebody the other day that I
always thought it'd be really cool to live in Santa
Monica because of the stores and the restaurants and the beach.
And they said, are you crazy.
Speaker 1 (19:58):
Yeah, no, I remember we thought about living there years ago.
And and you know that, we've had a number of
business people come on the air over the years and
they say they go to the mayor, they go to
the city council with the complaints, and they just get
stared at it because you're you're violating their religion. And
in their religion, you know, homeless people are at the
at the top of the hierarchy. They're they're now, they're
(20:19):
now worshiped, they're protected species. None of them helped the homeless.
Homeless end up dying in the streets of overdoses. I
don't understand it. It's a weird cult. Now and here
here's a here's a related story. One of the women
who got attacked at the Venice Canals back in early April.
(20:40):
You've remember two were beaten. One of them would get
interviewed in the news, but the second one we never
heard about. And there was a reason. She was brain dead.
She was visiting from Massachusetts and staying at Airbnb. And
they don't have an identity, but I guess she's been
in a coma now for about six weeks. And finally,
(21:01):
uh uh, she she died and Uh the the other
the other woman, Uh has been released from the hospital
but can't she can't work for some time because she
was so badly beaten. She was the one. Remember her
teeth were knocked out. Uh. The thing is I did.
(21:23):
All you have to do is take the bad guys
and put them away, And everyone from Georgia Gascon to
uh Karen Bass and everybody in the city council just
refuses to do it. And I don't understand. And then
they come out with their quote, Oh that's I mean this.
Phil Brock, the mayor Santa Monica, people were aghast at
those crimes. I'm a gas too. We've had Phil Brock
(21:44):
on the air. Everybody comes out and they have their quote, Oh,
I'm a gas. Oh this is dreadful, what a horrible tragedy.
So why don't you get these people removed. Beverly Hills
does it, Malibu does it. West Hollywood does a good
job of it. Culver City does the standalone cities do it? Oh,
I don't know why. Santa Monica just say no. Nobody
gets to lay here in the streets. It's simple, just
(22:06):
say no, you can't do it. You have ordinances you
enforce the ordinances. They're legal, they're constitutional. This is nonsense,
and they won't do it. And then people get stabbed,
they get murdered, and they get bludgeoned. I and then
stores close all over the place, and restaurants close all
over the place, and nobody wants to take a walk
(22:27):
on the walking paths or go to those beaches, and
everybody just sits and stairs. And this is the one
thing I never saw before in my life until the
last few years. And I've never seen anywhere else I
lived at any other time. It's only here right now,
like the last like seven years that I've seen people
just stare and allow all of society to crumble around
(22:51):
them and watch people get you know, get stabbed and beaten.
It's just but I guess, I mean, is it because
people just are there, heads always down and they're scrolling
on their phone. They just don't notice. All right, We've
got more coming up.
Speaker 2 (23:05):
You're listening to John Cobels on demand from KFI AM
six forty.
Speaker 1 (23:11):
We're gonna have Codway coming in in just a few minutes.
They will not stop irritating us. We've talked about Scott
Wiener many times. He is the state senator from San Francisco,
and he is the act. I mean, he is the
prince of the nanny state. There's nothing that he won't
(23:33):
try to regulate or control. And the latest is he
wants to control how much people speed. And they are
passing a bill. The Senate already did. They passed a
bill that would if you go ten miles over the
speed limit, your car is going to start to beat
(23:54):
and it won't stop. It will just bet bet beep beep.
So you can't cruise down or open freeway late at night.
You know, if the speed limit is sixty, once you
hit seventy one, it's going beat beep, beep, beep beep.
Maybe you're being chased by a Grema doesn't beat beepe
(24:15):
I can't stand all the beeping inside my car. I
really mean this. It's like at my car is relatively quiet,
it does do the beat beep for the seat belt.
Can't get around that, but I can't stand. I've had
rental cars where you get the beat beep if you
(24:36):
drift out of your lane just half an inch, beat beepep.
Then you drift a little to the left, beat beepep.
And now if you're speeding, it's gonna bet beep beep.
It makes me crazy. Oh and then that little button
that cuts off your motor when you're at a stoplight,
or if you just pause your car anywhere on the street,
(24:56):
it stops it and then it takes a couple of
seconds to restart. All this is incredibly annoying. They claim
that California has seen a horrifying spike in the deaths
of drivers, pedestrians, and cyclists over the years, and especially
since the the COVID nineteen pandemic. What the reason I
(25:22):
told you the big increase, because I've looked at the maps,
is homeless people are getting run over in the city
of Los Angeles. Because there's a map where there's little
blue dots every time a pedestrian got hit and killed.
The blue dots are in the neighborhoods with First of all,
there's a lot of crime, and there's a lot of
homeless people. Basically, there are no laws anymore. Nobody's handing
(25:43):
out speeding tickets because nobody is stopping all the gun violence,
and nobody's stopping all the homeless people wandering around in
the streets. And that's a big part of the spike.
But like going back to the last story, they won't
get the homeless people off the street. Instead, they're going
to penalize you if you're on an open highway late
(26:03):
at night. I just and it says crashes involving alcohol
and drug impair driving. Well, people who are drinking too
much and doing too many drugs are not going to
be stopped by the beep beep beep. They're not going
to care. They're drunk and they're high. The people who
(26:27):
caused most of the damage. There are already laws against speeding,
and there's laws against all the things that people do.
Doesn't stop them because they're drinking and doing drugs. Now
they've legalized a lot of the drugs, So what do
you think is going to happen. Look what they did
in Oregon. They legalized all the drugs. They legalized all
(26:48):
the drugs, including cocaine, heroin, fentanyl, meth. None of it
was against the law anymore. And then they got shocked
that dead bodies are piled up everywhere. Then they have
a story that pedestrians are twice as likely to be
hit by electric vehicles because the evs don't make any noise.
That's also driving up the number of pedestrian deaths. The
(27:11):
evs seriously, a researcher at the London School of Hygiene
and Tropical Medicine said, said the because the ev cars
are so quiet, people are getting hit and run over.
(27:32):
Not so with a gasoline engine, because you can hear
the because you teach the little kids, it's like you stop,
you look, you listen. Well there's no more listen. So
the state has policies between letting the homeless wander free
in the streets and promoting evs. They're increasing the number
of people getting run over, and then they want speed limit,
(27:54):
a speed limit beat to go off. Even though people
aren't run over on the freeways. There's no deaths on
the freeways because people are getting flattened conways here.
Speaker 7 (28:06):
Hey, now, hey, I think we need before we get
another one of these overpasses for the mountain lions. I
think an overpass for the homeless chaps, you know, because
they're the ones walking across the freeway. Yeah, those are
