Speaker 2 (00:27):
And we got two runs in the Moiceline this hour.
Speaker 3 (00:30):
Next week's Moyeline you call eight seven seven Moist Daily six.
This week's Moyeline is all ready to go in just
minutes now. One thing today that we've been focusing on periodically.
We open the show with the Encino Neighborhood Council President
Roy and Wasser because they had a Rockets meeting on
(00:51):
Thursday about bu Yeah, well we can go Thursday.
Speaker 2 (00:59):
In Sino.
Speaker 3 (00:59):
The residents are really angry. There's a lot of terrible
things that have gone on there in the last few months.
You know that a couple got murdered. The wife worked
for American Idol, the husband was a musician, and there
was this crazy guy who'd lived in the neighborhood for years,
somebody's son, and you know, nobody did anything about it.
(01:20):
Police didn't do anything about it. He just he did
all kinds of threatening things. He committed crimes, but because
he was mentally ill, he was never put in prison.
So eventually he shoots this poor couple to death, shoots
them both in the head. You remember, and the police
have been there, I don't know, half hour before, but
(01:43):
they never went inside. Then you have not only not
only the shooting, but just in general, there's a lot
of burglaries there and home invasion robberies, and now you
have this story. And this has been building, I would
say for a year and a half at least, but
(02:04):
really since twenty nineteen, Karen Bass has allowed the supulvit
Abasin Basin Recreation Area and Encino to become an open
air mental institution with literally hundreds of mental patients and
drug addicts running around two hundred to three hundred of
them are living there and the supulvt of Basin is
(02:26):
a two thousand acre park. Six hundred acres are affected
by the homeless people and they rule the place and
every day they start fires and every day of the
fire department goes out there and you can't keep up
with it. And you know, we're six months without rain,
dry seasons coming, and Bass is apparently not bothered.
Speaker 2 (02:46):
People that have seen and Sino are terrified of the fire.
Speaker 3 (02:50):
Bass is not worried about the fire, nor is she
worried that another another town will burn to the ground
because of her negligence.
Speaker 2 (02:57):
It's really curious. Now I play you two stories.
Speaker 3 (03:02):
First, one is a report from a week ago, August
twenty ninth, Tim Caputo, ABC seven, and this is about
the meeting the residents had and they were fed up
with the homeless and they were yelling at officials.
Speaker 2 (03:19):
Pay cut one.
Speaker 4 (03:20):
There have been more than seven hundred reported fires in
the Supulvent Basin in just the last year and a half.
That's at least one call to LAFD every single day.
Speaker 2 (03:29):
It's scary what's happening.
Speaker 5 (03:30):
It's just like an everyday occurrence when there's fires every
day across the street from.
Speaker 2 (03:35):
Your house and you see smoke. I'm not in a
fire zone, but i am because of the homeless.
Speaker 4 (03:39):
Fires often started by the estimated two to three hundred
homeless living here, and there are growing fears those fires
will one day spread to the packed neighborhoods next door.
Speaker 5 (03:47):
A lot of brush and dry vegetation there, and there
are hundreds of fires there every year.
Speaker 2 (03:52):
The problem is that these.
Speaker 5 (03:53):
People are starting fires and any one of these fires
can explode and become a catastrophic dating event.
Speaker 4 (04:00):
So tonight many of those concerned ins you know, residents,
took those fears to.
Speaker 2 (04:04):
City officials and they did not hold back their frustration.
Speaker 3 (04:10):
I really want to kind of bring some calmness to
the room because I can feel the tension all the
way up here.
Speaker 2 (04:15):
We need to get everybody to the table, and we
did just that.
Speaker 4 (04:19):
But the crowd groaned when the roundtable at times looked
more like a circle of finger pointing. Like when asked
who will remove the encampments and clear the homeless who
aren't allowed to live in the basin?
Speaker 6 (04:28):
I think that question is best answered by the LAPDAD
senior lead officers who work in this region.
Speaker 3 (04:33):
So the police department is not responsible for removing the homeless.
Speaker 2 (04:37):
It would be park rangers, but they're short staffed. We
don't have the tools that we need to the job properly.
Speaker 4 (04:42):
And don't forget navigating around the birds.
Speaker 2 (04:44):
We have a Federal Migratory Bird Act which comes into play.
Speaker 4 (04:47):
Long meaning short is complicated, but the work has begun.
In the last three weeks, the city has cleared one
acre of brush, but say there are about five hundred
and ninety nine acres to go. It's progress, albeit slow,
but proof the city is focused on the problem, and
some even walked away hopeful their boisterous concerns are actually
being heard.
Speaker 2 (05:04):
The more people that.
Speaker 7 (05:06):
Come out like we did tonight and make everyone aware
in government and their.
Speaker 8 (05:12):
Neighbors, etc.
Speaker 7 (05:14):
Than the more chance we have of moving this issue.
Speaker 9 (05:17):
Still an awful lot of frustration here tonight. Everyone now
knows this is not an overnight fix, although the work
will continue. In fact, Cruise will be out early next
week clearing more of that brush. It is another step
in this multi step process. But ultimately a lot of
folks happy that more steps are happening and.
Speaker 2 (05:34):
Anything is being done to address this issue. All right,
that's part of the problem.
Speaker 3 (05:38):
Anybody walked away happy and encouraged because one acre has
been cleared with five hundred and ninety nine to go,
took six years to build it up, seven hundred fires.
You're still going to get another seven hundred fires in
the next year and a half. That's wrong with people.
They'll sound like zombies. What's wrong with you?
Speaker 10 (06:00):
You know?
Speaker 3 (06:00):
The people are making aware that the city's been aware.
There have been thousands of calls. Emelda Padilla is one
of the city council people.
Speaker 2 (06:12):
Oh, she's a piece of work.
Speaker 3 (06:13):
Nythia Rahman is another city council person who is hopelessly
in love with homeless people. And Daniel Guss, the writer,
sent this these journalists. He sent this to me about
Emelda Padea.
Speaker 11 (06:31):
Uh.
Speaker 3 (06:32):
Her chief of staff is someone named Akli Padia. Now
acle is not related to Amelda, but he is the
brother of Senator Alex Paedia. Oh my god, these are
frightening genetic bloodlines here. All this incompetence has infected.
Speaker 2 (06:52):
All of government.
Speaker 3 (06:57):
Emilda Padilla is the one who literally ask the LAPD
chief to provide the council with tip offs about ice raids.
Speaker 2 (07:06):
That's right.
Speaker 3 (07:08):
She is the genius who asked the chief of the
La Police Force to tell city council about any ice
raids he was aware of. That is a federal crime.
That's how stupid she is. Block of wood. She also
screwed up the pledge of allegiance. She cannot recite the
(07:29):
pledge of allegiance because I don't think she feels any allegiance.
The allegiance at least not to taxpayers, not to American citizens,
the allegiances to illegal aliens and the homeless people, the
mental patients, the drug addicts, oh, the criminals too.
Speaker 2 (07:49):
Don't forget that.
Speaker 3 (07:50):
Now apparently there's a recall against her, but there's a
big See, this is what these people that want. You know,
at least this is a star. You know, there's a
little bit of encouragement here.
Speaker 2 (07:59):
What's wrong with you?
Speaker 3 (08:00):
You You had a bunch of government hacks up there
and they're all complaining.
Speaker 2 (08:04):
It's like, well, we got the Migratory Bird Act.
Speaker 3 (08:07):
That's got nothing to do with letting three hundred mental
patients live in public. Supreme Court says they have no right.
You clean up their tents and throw their tents out.
That does not violate the Migratory Bird Act. And stop saying, well,
the park rangers have to do it. They don't have
enough park rangers. The money isn't spent on park rangers.
(08:29):
The money is spent on Kamala Harris's security protection. That's
where the money's going these days. So you send to
the park rangers, you send in the police, she send
in the Sheriff's department. Or how about this, maybe Karen
Bass and Gavin Nusimon, I'll call the National Guard. That's
what Trump has been threatening to do, to go into
(08:49):
these cities where they won't clean up the homeless cambments
and send in the National Guard. And then you know,
if he does that, she's going to be outscreaming bloody murder.
Speaker 2 (08:57):
Right, she doesn't do anything for two and a half years.
Speaker 3 (09:00):
Well, this problem, there's three hundred crazy people starting fires
every day.
Speaker 2 (09:05):
Boy, you hear the residents though.
Speaker 3 (09:08):
I heard that we had this problem in my town
on the West Side a few years ago, when we
had this massive encampment in front of the VA, and
my wife and I went to one of these meetings
and everybody was sitting in the living room of one
couple and Mike Bonnen was up there and he was
lying his head off, and they were all sitting there
like zombies, staring into space.
Speaker 2 (09:29):
And my wife and.
Speaker 3 (09:30):
I made a fuss with Bonnen about it, and a
woman came up to us afterwards, agoing, I don't think
that was the appropriate place to do.
Speaker 2 (09:36):
It's like, what's wrong with you? Do you realize what's
gonna happen? Oh? And we were right.
Speaker 3 (09:41):
I mean it really went to hell over the next
four years along San Vesania Boulevard, like this hell going
on in the superlvid of Recreation Center. This should have
been cut off the first day you found the first
homeless person, not allowed three hundred to collect. Then you
start yelling and then they clean up one acre out
of six hundred and go, well, at least that's a start,
(10:01):
at least where we're headed somewhere.
Speaker 2 (10:05):
We come back and got another story.
Speaker 3 (10:07):
This is the latest story that was on k CAL
nine I guess last night, and we'll play you that story,
and then I'll tell you about the statement that Ray
Lopez and I personally received from the Mayor's office on
this matter. Yes, they emailed us at nine o'clock last night,
knowing we were going to talk about this. And they're
(10:28):
dumbest stumps too.
Speaker 12 (10:31):
All right, mare, coming up, you're listening to John Cobelt
on demand from KFI AM six forty.
Speaker 3 (10:39):
We got a couple of minutes. Let's play this report
from last night's k CAL News. This is the CBS
assignment editor Mike Rogers on the fires set by the
mental patients in the Subpulvida basin that Karen Bass won't
do anything about.
Speaker 13 (10:52):
It was a week ago tonight that our Lori Perez
was out of heated community meeting where they were trying
to get answers from officials from the city about what
they're doing to stop this problem in the Supulvaa basin.
A week later, the problem still persists. I want to
show you video. This is from the overnight hours of
a small brush fire burning there in the basin. LAFD
fire crews moving to that location. I told laft tonight.
(11:12):
They tell me, in the week since we've covered this story,
there have been eleven new fires in the suppulent debasin,
eight of them being grass fires, three of them to
be what they describe as rubbish fires. There was usually rubbish, trash,
or whatever kind of debris is left in there to burn.
LAFD obviously keeping busy. That is almost more than one
a day in just the week that we have told
you about this problem. And I will show you some
(11:33):
other video because this is not the first time that
obviously fire crews have dealt with this. Certainly bigger fires
with the Supulutabasin no stranger to those fires, and that
is something that has got community.
Speaker 2 (11:42):
Residents very concerned.
Speaker 13 (11:43):
A big contribution to these fires are the homeless population
that live in this area.
Speaker 2 (11:48):
I want to show you arials.
Speaker 13 (11:49):
From just about a half an hour ago Desmond Show
was overhead. You can see the remains of the charred
area from one of just several fires that have burned
in the Supulvidabasin. What we also found was the ever
growing homeless encampments that are there along the river bed
in the Supovida Basin. Lle Housing Authority saying at last
check there were hundreds of people in there. The city
fire department at the meeting last week saying that there's
been at least two hundred and fifty fires just this year,
(12:11):
and that's only from January until July. They also acknowledged
that many of them are caused by the homeless. And
when last week residents asked what are you doing about
the homeless, a lot of finger pointing.
Speaker 3 (12:21):
The police department is not responsible for removing the homeless,
but I think that question is.
Speaker 6 (12:25):
Best answered by the LAPED and senior lead officers who
work in this region.
Speaker 2 (12:30):
We will do the outreach to try to offer the
people the beds. We cannot tell people to say yes
to the beds.
Speaker 13 (12:36):
You heard the groaning from that crowd who was not
very appreciative of the answers of it's the police department's job.
Speaker 2 (12:41):
It's not the police department's job. Loss.
Speaker 13 (12:43):
I can't force anybody to take beds. Meanwhile, a week later,
the problem still persists. Eleven fires that we have counted,
according to the fire department, just in the one week
since we first told you.
Speaker 2 (12:53):
About this story.
Speaker 13 (12:53):
We'll keep on top of it and keep on top
of what city leaders are doing. Remember last week we
told you that they were bringing in dozers to try
to clear out some of the debris and hopefully push
those homeless encampments.
Speaker 2 (13:02):
Away and out of the area. So far though, they
are still there. This is what I'm saying.
Speaker 3 (13:10):
In the report from a week ago you had, you
had the same clips, all the saying, well, this department
has to do it, this department has to do it,
and then you had the public walking out on.
Speaker 2 (13:23):
Well, I don't know, at least you know they're talking
about it. Here.
Speaker 3 (13:26):
You had the deputy chief calling I feel a lot
of tension. I feel a lot of tension up here
at the meeting and after they all break up, after
the eleven fires, eight garbage fires, three grass fires, all
started by homeless people.
Speaker 2 (13:41):
That's why there's tension at the meeting.
Speaker 3 (13:44):
And if any of the local zombie residents, if you
don't see it now, oh yeah, yeah, they're not going
to clean it up significantly. They're going to send in
one bulldozer every once in a while, but the police
think it's not their responsibility, and the fire department is
just there to put out the fire after the fact,
and there's not enough park rangers, and there's a migratory bird.
Speaker 2 (14:04):
Prop blah blah blah blah blah blah.
Speaker 3 (14:06):
And then and Sino burns down. Karen Bass is at
the top of this. She could fix it. Otherwise, I say,
Trump sends in the National Guard in the Marines, and
if you don't go, if you don't like it, why
don't you deport yourself because nobody normal wants to live
like this. All right, let's do the moistline here, first
(14:27):
round eight seven seven moist eighty six.
Speaker 2 (14:29):
Let's get John, thanks.
Speaker 14 (14:31):
For calling the moistline.
Speaker 2 (14:32):
I'm so excited to hear from you to baptime.
Speaker 15 (14:35):
Isn't it too bad that Kamala lost her Federal Secret
Service protection? Now the taxpayers of California, you're supposed to
pay for it?
Speaker 2 (14:43):
How about this?
Speaker 15 (14:44):
If she's such a literary giant, why doesn't her book
publisher take care of it? And also if someone wants
to attack her, she could probably bore the perp to
death just by talking to him.
Speaker 6 (14:55):
I clean up.
Speaker 7 (14:55):
Around my neighborhood every day, and it's not just homeless people,
as there people that you pick up food to eat
and then they just throw their trash out on the street.
So you know, you can't just blame it on certain people.
And I'm thankful for people like these, groups of people
that care enough to want to make a difference.
Speaker 16 (15:14):
Yeah, I'd like to propose a party gift for all
of those deportis there to be a repatriated back to
their countries. They get to take a blue hair screaming
protester with them. For all of those that are self deporting,
they got to take two.
Speaker 17 (15:28):
The cities you just visited, Southeast cities.
Speaker 8 (15:31):
Like Charlotte, they have such a strong sense of community
and doing things together and keeping things great.
Speaker 17 (15:38):
That's why you love those cities.
Speaker 13 (15:40):
Karen Bass says it's her duty to protect the dignity
of these people.
Speaker 2 (15:45):
There is nothing dignifying about living.
Speaker 16 (15:48):
In a tent on the sidewalk.
Speaker 18 (15:51):
Let's California six months ago and I haven't seen a
homeless encampment.
Speaker 16 (15:55):
Sert's kind of weird.
Speaker 19 (15:56):
It's be a little homesick.
Speaker 18 (15:58):
I got a good idea for you can't beat them,
join them.
Speaker 1 (16:01):
Why don't you form your own nonprofit organization.
Speaker 2 (16:05):
I'll donate to it.
Speaker 1 (16:06):
I bet you get a lot of donations in.
Speaker 19 (16:08):
Honor of the Democrats finally living all the stupid, made
up words. I've got one more suggestion. Any politician he
uses the word reimagine or reinvent anything about our political
damper life, Oh god, I just what the moy point?
Speaker 17 (16:23):
You know, the truth of the matter is is just
imagine how stupid the people are that this ignorant lady
is influencing. That's stupid.
Speaker 2 (16:34):
That's the ignorance of the ignorance.
Speaker 19 (16:37):
California's Independent Commission would not be.
Speaker 9 (16:39):
Threatened right now if it weren't for.
Speaker 3 (16:41):
The actions of Republicans in other states.
Speaker 17 (16:44):
Well, that Prinsident Trump has made so many different changes
in this situation that have saved many lives and helped
the people out. Is there any reason that the Democrats
can't understand it.
Speaker 8 (16:58):
I've absolutely had enough of sociopath in Sacramento. Gavinism is
such a liar. He lies about everything. He's going to
run for president, that's all.
Speaker 19 (17:08):
He cares about.
Speaker 8 (17:09):
He's putting together a task force for the homelessness. Well,
that's great. He's only been in office for her second term,
which has almost been eight years now, and he's just
getting around to it. I really hope people remember this
when he's running for president. We definitely can't have the
country end up being like the state of California.
Speaker 12 (17:27):
Kamala Harriski.
Speaker 2 (17:28):
Four years of her life as a public servant. She
didn't do check.
Speaker 4 (17:31):
She didn't give any part of her life for the
last four years other than sit there and collect our
tax dollars that she doesn't deserve.
Speaker 10 (17:38):
You know, with all these National Guard units being deployed
around all these big cities, we're starting to look like
Central America with all the armed troops in the streets
and helicopters hovering. Not a good look for America at all.
Speaker 2 (17:51):
Trump is the most quickest person there is.
Speaker 11 (17:54):
I'd be willing to bet that those lap officers are
all on over time.
Speaker 6 (18:00):
I agree with you on Kamala Harris. I want to
know why it's legal for the state of California.
Speaker 2 (18:05):
In the city Los Angeles.
Speaker 6 (18:07):
To spend money on a private citizen who is out
selling books across this country and in Europe, which is
nothing more than a pseudo campaign event to lift her
up to potentially run for presidency in twenty twenty eight.
Speaker 2 (18:24):
I just don't think it's legal.
Speaker 8 (18:26):
I just want to know why Kamala Harris needs security protection.
Speaker 2 (18:32):
She's nobody now.
Speaker 7 (18:33):
Why does she even need it? And I agree with you,
why can't they pay for it?
Speaker 17 (18:38):
It had to reinsane California.
Speaker 1 (18:42):
You're a mandering our house vers in response to what
Chuto Cheeks directed Texas to do. If they didn't invent
five news seats and Newson wouldn't be doing this.
Speaker 3 (18:52):
Thank you for leaving your message.
Speaker 19 (18:54):
Please hang up, goodbye?
Speaker 2 (18:57):
All right.
Speaker 3 (18:58):
I'll read you Karen bas Is Press department the email
that they sent to me and Terray, our producer that's
next on the crazy homeless people that are setting in
Sino on fire.
Speaker 12 (19:13):
You're listening to John Cobels on demand from KFI A
six forty.
Speaker 3 (19:19):
We are on from one till four after four o'clock.
John Cobelt's show on demand. If you missed the show today,
we have been chronicling the insanity in Encino at the
Subpulvid Basin Recreational Facility. It's a beautiful park. It's two
thousand acres, six hundred of them apparently are ruled by
(19:41):
homeless people who start lots of fires and the idiots
running this city. They had a town meeting with the
residents of Encino and they all said, somebody else ought
to do this. Please go all right, we can't do this.
It's the park rangers. Park rangers said, oh, there's not
enough of us. So the fire department said, well, it's
(20:01):
l A p D. Then they're saying, well, it's actually
the federal government. We need the Army Corps of Engineer.
Speaker 2 (20:06):
Oh my god.
Speaker 3 (20:08):
Meantime, since the meeting, as of last night, eleven fires
eleven started by the by the vagrants, started by all
the drug addict mental patients.
Speaker 2 (20:20):
Eleven.
Speaker 3 (20:21):
They even have booby traps in the park there by
the way, beautiful park. I went there many times when
my kids were small, and they have baseball fields there
and soccer fields and a golf course and a lake
and it's just gorgeous.
Speaker 2 (20:38):
North of the one o one.
Speaker 3 (20:39):
It's west of the four oh five in Encino, I
think borders on Victory h and White Oak. This is
just astonishing that they let Carribes does nothing as she's
been They've hit seven hundred fires. Can you imagine the
thousands of calls that she's gotten. And this the these
these theseheads, Nithia Rahman, who's one of the city council people,
(21:03):
and Emelda Amelda Padilla. They do nothing and then Encino's
gonna burn. What are they gonna do? They're gonna give
us their thoughts and prayers. So this is what we
started talking about this at the end of the show
yesterday and we said we were going to do more
on it. We had somebody from the Encino Neighborhood Council
on in the first hour, so we had a promo
(21:25):
running all day. At about nine o'clock last night, Ray
and I both got on our emails addressed to John
Cobel Ray Lopez uh statement from the Mayor's office. Hello,
we heard that you're going to be covering the Supulvita
Basin tomorrow and we wanted to share this with you,
and I'm all excited right statement there. Bass is leading
(21:48):
a new approach to the Supulvta Basin to reduce safety threats.
Speaker 2 (21:50):
In the area. They mean new approach. You just get
rid of them, getn't a right to be there.
Speaker 3 (21:57):
This includes addressing challenges that been decades in the making.
That's false, stop in decades in the making, and we'll
take time to address comprehensively, like the long standing homeless encampments,
long standing, comprehensive decades in the making. Do like Trump did.
(22:18):
You get bulldozers and you clean them up, and after
you've cleaned them all up, you throw all the garbage
in big dump trucks and you drive off and you
tell the homeless people out out. Supreme Court says, this
is a public area. You have no right to sleep here.
Speaker 2 (22:36):
Out Mark, let's go out, and and if you don't.
Speaker 3 (22:40):
You're under arrest. You want to be arrested, you'll get
a roof over your head for a night. We'll put
Jane Jail, how about that, that's what you do. Come on, Oh,
let's say we have to address it comprehensively. It's decades
of the this and they said this to us because
this works on every bone head media person in Los Angeles,
(23:03):
every other reporter, every other producer, every other anchor. Well,
I mean, with the exception of a few, every assignment editor.
I mean you can see Mike Rogers over there a
Channel nine is buying it, and other people at Fox
eleven aren't buying it. La times, all those giggly little
(23:26):
girls from the community colleges with their silly, silly little
degrees in journalism. Last week, the deputy mayor of public Safety,
by the way, Bass's old deputy mayor was a guy
that's in prison right now for calling in bomb threats
(23:47):
to city Hall, and the deputy mayor of Community Engagement
whatever they f that is attended at NSINO community meeting
to answer questions directly from the residents. Well, we played
you some clips of that from Channel seven and Channel nine,
and everybody was saying, well, it's their responsibility, it's their responsibility,
it's all these all these agencies. No, it's your first
(24:08):
of all it's the mayor's responsibility, and she ought to
order the police to arrest the people who don't want
to leave voluntarily, and she out of the sanitation department
or wherever freaking department has the bulldozers and start clearing
the homeless out of there now. And then you if
you have fourteen people for Kamala Harris. By the way,
(24:28):
for those of you working overtime this weekend, bless you.
All right, it's a little more money for Kamala Harris's
LAPD security force.
Speaker 2 (24:36):
You're welcome, so he appreciated you're working. You're working extra
this weekend. Yeah, I gotta work amorrow night.
Speaker 3 (24:43):
But there you go there. Thank you for your contribution. Yes,
you're a city resident, aren't you. Yes, I am okay.
You're doing your part to keep Kamala Harris safe. Now,
these people in Ncino who are absolutely terrified that there's
another fire, seeds that come in after six months of
no rain, and there's there's eleven fires in the last week.
Speaker 2 (25:03):
Now, let me ask you this.
Speaker 3 (25:05):
If the Deputy Mayor of Public Safety and the Deputy
Mayor of Community Engagement, if they all went to this
meeting and everybody was screaming at them, wouldn't write that night,
they'd say, Okay, we got to get all have the
task for us and stop all this nonsense. Right, Instead,
there's eleven more fires and there was there was nobody
there to stop them. What is wrong with the did
(25:26):
they want us all to die? If if you were
planning to have a mass murder by fire, what would
you do differently?
Speaker 2 (25:37):
Like if you had a plan list, you know what
I'm going to see?
Speaker 3 (25:40):
If I could kill maybe one hundred residents of Mesino
and destroy a you know, five hundred homes.
Speaker 2 (25:45):
What would I do differently?
Speaker 3 (25:46):
Well, you you have three hundred people with access to
matches and gasoline, and they're wacked out on drugs and
they're mentally ill.
Speaker 2 (26:01):
How about it, guys, if you wanted to.
Speaker 3 (26:05):
Kill everybody in Encino, you what would you do differently?
This is such a bs Okay, you compare that, right,
I'm sorry. Trump shut the border down in a day.
He got he got the murder rate Washington C Washington
d C down to zero in two weeks.
Speaker 2 (26:26):
You could do this easily, Like all right, here's uh.
Speaker 3 (26:32):
The US attorney for Washington d C, Jeanine Piro Judge
Janine Fox News.
Speaker 2 (26:39):
She's now the attorney US attorney, like we have Bill A.
Saly Uh.
Speaker 3 (26:45):
Some months back, there were there was a there was
a congressional intern who was murdered. Well, they caught two
teenagers now here in LA. Those two teenagers would end
up spending maybe five years in juvenile detention. You know
what's going to happen with the US Attorney, Judge gen
(27:08):
Judge Janine Piro. These two teenagers, they've been charged with murder.
They're being charged as adults. Jaylen Lucas and Kelvin Thomas Junior,
they're seventeen. That's how you take care of problems. It's
real easy. They'll go away for life. We'll never hear
(27:30):
from them again. All right, We got round two of them.
Moistline coming up next.
Speaker 12 (27:35):
You're listening to John Cobelts on demand from KFI AM
six forty.
Speaker 3 (27:40):
John Cobelt's Show, and we're nearing the end here. We're
on every day from one until four and then after
four o'clock just a little bit. You can hear the
podcast on the iHeart app John Cobelt Show on demand
and pick up what you missed. But every week twice
in the three o'clock hour on Friday, we run the Moistline.
Speaker 2 (27:58):
It's all you.
Speaker 3 (27:59):
Eight seven seven Mois Stady six if you want to
be on next week eight seven seven Mois Steady six,
or use the talkback feature on the iHeartRadio app.
Speaker 2 (28:07):
Let's go and John, thanks.
Speaker 3 (28:09):
For calling them moist wine.
Speaker 19 (28:10):
I'm so excited to.
Speaker 2 (28:11):
Hear from you.
Speaker 14 (28:12):
Come out come.
Speaker 20 (28:13):
So they got money to pay for a bodyguard for Kamalo,
but they don't got money for firefighters and to fill
the reservoir and to help take care of the people
from the fire from the palisade. Yeah, where's all this
money coming from? If la Is broke California, damn near
broke its money for special election.
Speaker 18 (28:33):
This don't make no sense.
Speaker 11 (28:35):
Let's just be honest.
Speaker 7 (28:37):
No citizen gives a rat about Kamala Harris. The only
person that's app to kick her is her own husband.
Speaker 2 (28:45):
Give me a break.
Speaker 20 (28:47):
Oh worry, she'll get red room because the Olympics is coming.
Speaker 14 (28:52):
So sure, let Trump get red room.
Speaker 10 (28:54):
SAT's ahead of the Olympic committee and then show.
Speaker 6 (28:57):
Kawaine the president for John shut it down a long
time ago.
Speaker 2 (29:02):
So remember there's a huge event for the Olympics. Path
to Suppolita basin, all right to live in here, there's
the Pulaa Basin about them all away. That's where the
Balboa Park is at.
Speaker 14 (29:14):
And I can tell you there's a fire's there all
the time.
Speaker 1 (29:17):
Got Newsom will never be a leader, always a problem.
He hids in the shadows, learning Trump for his failures.
He constantly wanted the executive order away from a complete
all breakdown.
Speaker 19 (29:28):
I totally agree with you about Savannah. It is beautiful,
it's gorgeous. Earlier this year we visited.
Speaker 18 (29:35):
Charleston, South Carolina.
Speaker 19 (29:36):
It's a whole southeast areas. It's beautiful, it's clean, the
parks are clean and gorgeous. I can't wait to leave
California permanently.
Speaker 18 (29:45):
Born and raced here, but I can't wait to leave permanently.
Speaker 1 (29:49):
It's always been my dreaming to be on the moist line,
and finally I made it.
Speaker 19 (29:52):
You said that makes me an official influencer. So now
I'm only calling to add this to my resume.
Speaker 18 (29:59):
Paula Harris a security detail. She wants LAPD watching her.
I don't think so. She should have her own security
with those officers over an encino where people are getting
robbed forget Kamala Harris.
Speaker 14 (30:13):
I wonder if Karen Mann would have paid for Donald
Trump the security if he didn't win. I think so
or any Republican people of Lau that you'd kick her
out of office and then go after news. So these
guys are the worst of the worst.
Speaker 2 (30:29):
Feel bad for the guys in prison.
Speaker 7 (30:31):
Man.
Speaker 16 (30:31):
They need air conditioning, they need three.
Speaker 3 (30:33):
Or four meals a day, they need dessert, they need visits.
Speaker 20 (30:36):
Book.
Speaker 2 (30:37):
I cried booth on all of it.
Speaker 3 (30:39):
I worked my butt off to stay out of there,
you know, refusing them back what you said a few days.
Speaker 16 (30:44):
Ago about traveling out of California and how it's a
different world. I completely agree.
Speaker 19 (30:48):
Over the past decade out of trampled to central and
northern Wisconsin of a mission thing where I have a
lot of relatives, and it's is a completely different world.
Speaker 18 (30:56):
This was Kamala Harris getting laped.
Speaker 14 (30:59):
This is ridiculou What are they going to do?
Speaker 18 (31:01):
Come after her for failing to identify root causes.
Speaker 16 (31:04):
Give me a break.
Speaker 11 (31:05):
I'm just thinking, I'm tire of my friends complaining about
the price of bats foot companies.
Speaker 2 (31:11):
Like McDonald's or Carlos Junior.
Speaker 11 (31:13):
I remind them that the reason why prices are higher
is because of the Democrats of Akaa Gabam Newsom raise
the minimum wage for ridiculous prices. That's why the prices
are so so quick complaining. It's about time so the
electing Republicans instead of these Democrats who are ruining California.
Speaker 2 (31:32):
Thank you for leaving your message.
Speaker 7 (31:33):
Please hang up, goodbye.
Speaker 3 (31:40):
All right, that's round two of the Moistline. We'll do
it again next week. You can call anytime twenty four

Speaker 2 (00:27):
And we got two runs in the Moiceline this hour.
Speaker 3 (00:30):
Next week's Moyeline you call eight seven seven Moist Daily six.
This week's Moyeline is all ready to go in just
minutes now. One thing today that we've been focusing on periodically.
We open the show with the Encino Neighborhood Council President
Roy and Wasser because they had a Rockets meeting on
(00:51):
Thursday about bu Yeah, well we can go Thursday.
Speaker 2 (00:59):
In Sino.
Speaker 3 (00:59):
The residents are really angry. There's a lot of terrible
things that have gone on there in the last few months.
You know that a couple got murdered. The wife worked
for American Idol, the husband was a musician, and there
was this crazy guy who'd lived in the neighborhood for years,
somebody's son, and you know, nobody did anything about it.
(01:20):
Police didn't do anything about it. He just he did
all kinds of threatening things. He committed crimes, but because
he was mentally ill, he was never put in prison.
So eventually he shoots this poor couple to death, shoots
them both in the head. You remember, and the police
have been there, I don't know, half hour before, but
(01:43):
they never went inside. Then you have not only not
only the shooting, but just in general, there's a lot
of burglaries there and home invasion robberies, and now you
have this story. And this has been building, I would
say for a year and a half at least, but
(02:04):
really since twenty nineteen, Karen Bass has allowed the supulvit
Abasin Basin Recreation Area and Encino to become an open
air mental institution with literally hundreds of mental patients and
drug addicts running around two hundred to three hundred of
them are living there and the supulvt of Basin is
(02:26):
a two thousand acre park. Six hundred acres are affected
by the homeless people and they rule the place and
every day they start fires and every day of the
fire department goes out there and you can't keep up
with it. And you know, we're six months without rain,
dry seasons coming, and Bass is apparently not bothered.
Speaker 2 (02:46):
People that have seen and Sino are terrified of the fire.
Speaker 3 (02:50):
Bass is not worried about the fire, nor is she
worried that another another town will burn to the ground
because of her negligence.
Speaker 2 (02:57):
It's really curious. Now I play you two stories.
Speaker 3 (03:02):
First, one is a report from a week ago, August
twenty ninth, Tim Caputo, ABC seven, and this is about
the meeting the residents had and they were fed up
with the homeless and they were yelling at officials.
Speaker 2 (03:19):
Pay cut one.
Speaker 4 (03:20):
There have been more than seven hundred reported fires in
the Supulvent Basin in just the last year and a half.
That's at least one call to LAFD every single day.
Speaker 2 (03:29):
It's scary what's happening.
Speaker 5 (03:30):
It's just like an everyday occurrence when there's fires every
day across the street from.
Speaker 2 (03:35):
Your house and you see smoke. I'm not in a
fire zone, but i am because of the homeless.
Speaker 4 (03:39):
Fires often started by the estimated two to three hundred
homeless living here, and there are growing fears those fires
will one day spread to the packed neighborhoods next door.
Speaker 5 (03:47):
A lot of brush and dry vegetation there, and there
are hundreds of fires there every year.
Speaker 2 (03:52):
The problem is that these.
Speaker 5 (03:53):
People are starting fires and any one of these fires
can explode and become a catastrophic dating event.
Speaker 4 (04:00):
So tonight many of those concerned ins you know, residents,
took those fears to.
Speaker 2 (04:04):
City officials and they did not hold back their frustration.
Speaker 3 (04:10):
I really want to kind of bring some calmness to
the room because I can feel the tension all the
way up here.
Speaker 2 (04:15):
We need to get everybody to the table, and we
did just that.
Speaker 4 (04:19):
But the crowd groaned when the roundtable at times looked
more like a circle of finger pointing. Like when asked
who will remove the encampments and clear the homeless who
aren't allowed to live in the basin?
Speaker 6 (04:28):
I think that question is best answered by the LAPDAD
senior lead officers who work in this region.
Speaker 3 (04:33):
So the police department is not responsible for removing the homeless.
Speaker 2 (04:37):
It would be park rangers, but they're short staffed. We
don't have the tools that we need to the job properly.
Speaker 4 (04:42):
And don't forget navigating around the birds.
Speaker 2 (04:44):
We have a Federal Migratory Bird Act which comes into play.
Speaker 4 (04:47):
Long meaning short is complicated, but the work has begun.
In the last three weeks, the city has cleared one
acre of brush, but say there are about five hundred
and ninety nine acres to go. It's progress, albeit slow,
but proof the city is focused on the problem, and
some even walked away hopeful their boisterous concerns are actually
being heard.
Speaker 2 (05:04):
The more people that.
Speaker 7 (05:06):
Come out like we did tonight and make everyone aware
in government and their.
Speaker 8 (05:12):
Neighbors, etc.
Speaker 7 (05:14):
Than the more chance we have of moving this issue.
Speaker 9 (05:17):
Still an awful lot of frustration here tonight. Everyone now
knows this is not an overnight fix, although the work
will continue. In fact, Cruise will be out early next
week clearing more of that brush. It is another step
in this multi step process. But ultimately a lot of
folks happy that more steps are happening and.
Speaker 2 (05:34):
Anything is being done to address this issue. All right,
that's part of the problem.
Speaker 3 (05:38):
Anybody walked away happy and encouraged because one acre has
been cleared with five hundred and ninety nine to go,
took six years to build it up, seven hundred fires.
You're still going to get another seven hundred fires in
the next year and a half. That's wrong with people.
They'll sound like zombies. What's wrong with you?
Speaker 10 (06:00):
You know?
Speaker 3 (06:00):
The people are making aware that the city's been aware.
There have been thousands of calls. Emelda Padilla is one
of the city council people.
Speaker 2 (06:12):
Oh, she's a piece of work.
Speaker 3 (06:13):
Nythia Rahman is another city council person who is hopelessly
in love with homeless people. And Daniel Guss, the writer,
sent this these journalists. He sent this to me about
Emelda Padea.
Speaker 11 (06:31):
Uh.
Speaker 3 (06:32):
Her chief of staff is someone named Akli Padia. Now
acle is not related to Amelda, but he is the
brother of Senator Alex Paedia. Oh my god, these are
frightening genetic bloodlines here. All this incompetence has infected.
Speaker 2 (06:52):
All of government.
Speaker 3 (06:57):
Emilda Padilla is the one who literally ask the LAPD
chief to provide the council with tip offs about ice raids.
Speaker 2 (07:06):
That's right.
Speaker 3 (07:08):
She is the genius who asked the chief of the
La Police Force to tell city council about any ice
raids he was aware of. That is a federal crime.
That's how stupid she is. Block of wood. She also
screwed up the pledge of allegiance. She cannot recite the
(07:29):
pledge of allegiance because I don't think she feels any allegiance.
The allegiance at least not to taxpayers, not to American citizens,
the allegiances to illegal aliens and the homeless people, the
mental patients, the drug addicts, oh, the criminals too.
Speaker 2 (07:49):
Don't forget that.
Speaker 3 (07:50):
Now apparently there's a recall against her, but there's a
big See, this is what these people that want. You know,
at least this is a star. You know, there's a
little bit of encouragement here.
Speaker 2 (07:59):
What's wrong with you?
Speaker 3 (08:00):
You You had a bunch of government hacks up there
and they're all complaining.
Speaker 2 (08:04):
It's like, well, we got the Migratory Bird Act.
Speaker 3 (08:07):
That's got nothing to do with letting three hundred mental
patients live in public. Supreme Court says they have no right.
You clean up their tents and throw their tents out.
That does not violate the Migratory Bird Act. And stop saying, well,
the park rangers have to do it. They don't have
enough park rangers. The money isn't spent on park rangers.
(08:29):
The money is spent on Kamala Harris's security protection. That's
where the money's going these days. So you send to
the park rangers, you send in the police, she send
in the Sheriff's department. Or how about this, maybe Karen
Bass and Gavin Nusimon, I'll call the National Guard. That's
what Trump has been threatening to do, to go into
(08:49):
these cities where they won't clean up the homeless cambments
and send in the National Guard. And then you know,
if he does that, she's going to be outscreaming bloody murder.
Speaker 2 (08:57):
Right, she doesn't do anything for two and a half years.
Speaker 3 (09:00):
Well, this problem, there's three hundred crazy people starting fires
every day.
Speaker 2 (09:05):
Boy, you hear the residents though.
Speaker 3 (09:08):
I heard that we had this problem in my town
on the West Side a few years ago, when we
had this massive encampment in front of the VA, and
my wife and I went to one of these meetings
and everybody was sitting in the living room of one
couple and Mike Bonnen was up there and he was
lying his head off, and they were all sitting there
like zombies, staring into space.
Speaker 2 (09:29):
And my wife and.
Speaker 3 (09:30):
I made a fuss with Bonnen about it, and a
woman came up to us afterwards, agoing, I don't think
that was the appropriate place to do.
Speaker 2 (09:36):
It's like, what's wrong with you? Do you realize what's
gonna happen? Oh? And we were right.
Speaker 3 (09:41):
I mean it really went to hell over the next
four years along San Vesania Boulevard, like this hell going
on in the superlvid of Recreation Center. This should have
been cut off the first day you found the first
homeless person, not allowed three hundred to collect. Then you
start yelling and then they clean up one acre out
of six hundred and go, well, at least that's a start,
(10:01):
at least where we're headed somewhere.
Speaker 2 (10:05):
We come back and got another story.
Speaker 3 (10:07):
This is the latest story that was on k CAL
nine I guess last night, and we'll play you that story,
and then I'll tell you about the statement that Ray
Lopez and I personally received from the Mayor's office on
this matter. Yes, they emailed us at nine o'clock last night,
knowing we were going to talk about this. And they're
(10:28):
dumbest stumps too.
Speaker 12 (10:31):
All right, mare, coming up, you're listening to John Cobelt
on demand from KFI AM six forty.
Speaker 3 (10:39):
We got a couple of minutes. Let's play this report
from last night's k CAL News. This is the CBS
assignment editor Mike Rogers on the fires set by the
mental patients in the Subpulvida basin that Karen Bass won't
do anything about.
Speaker 13 (10:52):
It was a week ago tonight that our Lori Perez
was out of heated community meeting where they were trying
to get answers from officials from the city about what
they're doing to stop this problem in the Supulvaa basin.
A week later, the problem still persists. I want to
show you video. This is from the overnight hours of
a small brush fire burning there in the basin. LAFD
fire crews moving to that location. I told laft tonight.
(11:12):
They tell me, in the week since we've covered this story,
there have been eleven new fires in the suppulent debasin,
eight of them being grass fires, three of them to
be what they describe as rubbish fires. There was usually rubbish, trash,
or whatever kind of debris is left in there to burn.
LAFD obviously keeping busy. That is almost more than one
a day in just the week that we have told
you about this problem. And I will show you some
(11:33):
other video because this is not the first time that
obviously fire crews have dealt with this. Certainly bigger fires
with the Supulutabasin no stranger to those fires, and that
is something that has got community.
Speaker 2 (11:42):
Residents very concerned.
Speaker 13 (11:43):
A big contribution to these fires are the homeless population
that live in this area.
Speaker 2 (11:48):
I want to show you arials.
Speaker 13 (11:49):
From just about a half an hour ago Desmond Show
was overhead. You can see the remains of the charred
area from one of just several fires that have burned
in the Supulvidabasin. What we also found was the ever
growing homeless encampments that are there along the river bed
in the Supovida Basin. Lle Housing Authority saying at last
check there were hundreds of people in there. The city
fire department at the meeting last week saying that there's
been at least two hundred and fifty fires just this year,
(12:11):
and that's only from January until July. They also acknowledged
that many of them are caused by the homeless. And
when last week residents asked what are you doing about
the homeless, a lot of finger pointing.
Speaker 3 (12:21):
The police department is not responsible for removing the homeless,
but I think that question is.
Speaker 6 (12:25):
Best answered by the LAPED and senior lead officers who
work in this region.
Speaker 2 (12:30):
We will do the outreach to try to offer the
people the beds. We cannot tell people to say yes
to the beds.
Speaker 13 (12:36):
You heard the groaning from that crowd who was not
very appreciative of the answers of it's the police department's job.
Speaker 2 (12:41):
It's not the police department's job. Loss.
Speaker 13 (12:43):
I can't force anybody to take beds. Meanwhile, a week later,
the problem still persists. Eleven fires that we have counted,
according to the fire department, just in the one week
since we first told you.
Speaker 2 (12:53):
About this story.
Speaker 13 (12:53):
We'll keep on top of it and keep on top
of what city leaders are doing. Remember last week we
told you that they were bringing in dozers to try
to clear out some of the debris and hopefully push
those homeless encampments.
Speaker 2 (13:02):
Away and out of the area. So far though, they
are still there. This is what I'm saying.
Speaker 3 (13:10):
In the report from a week ago you had, you
had the same clips, all the saying, well, this department
has to do it, this department has to do it,
and then you had the public walking out on.
Speaker 2 (13:23):
Well, I don't know, at least you know they're talking
about it. Here.
Speaker 3 (13:26):
You had the deputy chief calling I feel a lot
of tension. I feel a lot of tension up here
at the meeting and after they all break up, after
the eleven fires, eight garbage fires, three grass fires, all
started by homeless people.
Speaker 2 (13:41):
That's why there's tension at the meeting.
Speaker 3 (13:44):
And if any of the local zombie residents, if you
don't see it now, oh yeah, yeah, they're not going
to clean it up significantly. They're going to send in
one bulldozer every once in a while, but the police
think it's not their responsibility, and the fire department is
just there to put out the fire after the fact,
and there's not enough park rangers, and there's a migratory bird.
Speaker 2 (14:04):
Prop blah blah blah blah blah blah.
Speaker 3 (14:06):
And then and Sino burns down. Karen Bass is at
the top of this. She could fix it. Otherwise, I say,
Trump sends in the National Guard in the Marines, and
if you don't go, if you don't like it, why
don't you deport yourself because nobody normal wants to live
like this. All right, let's do the moistline here, first
(14:27):
round eight seven seven moist eighty six.
Speaker 2 (14:29):
Let's get John, thanks.
Speaker 14 (14:31):
For calling the moistline.
Speaker 2 (14:32):
I'm so excited to hear from you to baptime.
Speaker 15 (14:35):
Isn't it too bad that Kamala lost her Federal Secret
Service protection? Now the taxpayers of California, you're supposed to
pay for it?
Speaker 2 (14:43):
How about this?
Speaker 15 (14:44):
If she's such a literary giant, why doesn't her book
publisher take care of it? And also if someone wants
to attack her, she could probably bore the perp to
death just by talking to him.
Speaker 6 (14:55):
I clean up.
Speaker 7 (14:55):
Around my neighborhood every day, and it's not just homeless people,
as there people that you pick up food to eat
and then they just throw their trash out on the street.
So you know, you can't just blame it on certain people.
And I'm thankful for people like these, groups of people
that care enough to want to make a difference.
Speaker 16 (15:14):
Yeah, I'd like to propose a party gift for all
of those deportis there to be a repatriated back to
their countries. They get to take a blue hair screaming
protester with them. For all of those that are self deporting,
they got to take two.
Speaker 17 (15:28):
The cities you just visited, Southeast cities.
Speaker 8 (15:31):
Like Charlotte, they have such a strong sense of community
and doing things together and keeping things great.
Speaker 17 (15:38):
That's why you love those cities.
Speaker 13 (15:40):
Karen Bass says it's her duty to protect the dignity
of these people.
Speaker 2 (15:45):
There is nothing dignifying about living.
Speaker 16 (15:48):
In a tent on the sidewalk.
Speaker 18 (15:51):
Let's California six months ago and I haven't seen a
homeless encampment.
Speaker 16 (15:55):
Sert's kind of weird.
Speaker 19 (15:56):
It's be a little homesick.
Speaker 18 (15:58):
I got a good idea for you can't beat them,
join them.
Speaker 1 (16:01):
Why don't you form your own nonprofit organization.
Speaker 2 (16:05):
I'll donate to it.
Speaker 1 (16:06):
I bet you get a lot of donations in.
Speaker 19 (16:08):
Honor of the Democrats finally living all the stupid, made
up words. I've got one more suggestion. Any politician he
uses the word reimagine or reinvent anything about our political
damper life, Oh god, I just what the moy point?
Speaker 17 (16:23):
You know, the truth of the matter is is just
imagine how stupid the people are that this ignorant lady
is influencing. That's stupid.
Speaker 2 (16:34):
That's the ignorance of the ignorance.
Speaker 19 (16:37):
California's Independent Commission would not be.
Speaker 9 (16:39):
Threatened right now if it weren't for.
Speaker 3 (16:41):
The actions of Republicans in other states.
Speaker 17 (16:44):
Well, that Prinsident Trump has made so many different changes
in this situation that have saved many lives and helped
the people out. Is there any reason that the Democrats
can't understand it.
Speaker 8 (16:58):
I've absolutely had enough of sociopath in Sacramento. Gavinism is
such a liar. He lies about everything. He's going to
run for president, that's all.
Speaker 19 (17:08):
He cares about.
Speaker 8 (17:09):
He's putting together a task force for the homelessness. Well,
that's great. He's only been in office for her second term,
which has almost been eight years now, and he's just
getting around to it. I really hope people remember this
when he's running for president. We definitely can't have the
country end up being like the state of California.
Speaker 12 (17:27):
Kamala Harriski.
Speaker 2 (17:28):
Four years of her life as a public servant. She
didn't do check.
Speaker 4 (17:31):
She didn't give any part of her life for the
last four years other than sit there and collect our
tax dollars that she doesn't deserve.
Speaker 10 (17:38):
You know, with all these National Guard units being deployed
around all these big cities, we're starting to look like
Central America with all the armed troops in the streets
and helicopters hovering. Not a good look for America at all.
Speaker 2 (17:51):
Trump is the most quickest person there is.
Speaker 11 (17:54):
I'd be willing to bet that those lap officers are
all on over time.
Speaker 6 (18:00):
I agree with you on Kamala Harris. I want to
know why it's legal for the state of California.
Speaker 2 (18:05):
In the city Los Angeles.
Speaker 6 (18:07):
To spend money on a private citizen who is out
selling books across this country and in Europe, which is
nothing more than a pseudo campaign event to lift her
up to potentially run for presidency in twenty twenty eight.
Speaker 2 (18:24):
I just don't think it's legal.
Speaker 8 (18:26):
I just want to know why Kamala Harris needs security protection.
Speaker 2 (18:32):
She's nobody now.
Speaker 7 (18:33):
Why does she even need it? And I agree with you,
why can't they pay for it?
Speaker 17 (18:38):
It had to reinsane California.
Speaker 1 (18:42):
You're a mandering our house vers in response to what
Chuto Cheeks directed Texas to do. If they didn't invent
five news seats and Newson wouldn't be doing this.
Speaker 3 (18:52):
Thank you for leaving your message.
Speaker 19 (18:54):
Please hang up, goodbye?
Speaker 2 (18:57):
All right.
Speaker 3 (18:58):
I'll read you Karen bas Is Press department the email
that they sent to me and Terray, our producer that's
next on the crazy homeless people that are setting in
Sino on fire.
Speaker 12 (19:13):
You're listening to John Cobels on demand from KFI A
six forty.
Speaker 3 (19:19):
We are on from one till four after four o'clock.
John Cobelt's show on demand. If you missed the show today,
we have been chronicling the insanity in Encino at the
Subpulvid Basin Recreational Facility. It's a beautiful park. It's two
thousand acres, six hundred of them apparently are ruled by
(19:41):
homeless people who start lots of fires and the idiots
running this city. They had a town meeting with the
residents of Encino and they all said, somebody else ought
to do this. Please go all right, we can't do this.
It's the park rangers. Park rangers said, oh, there's not
enough of us. So the fire department said, well, it's
(20:01):
l A p D. Then they're saying, well, it's actually
the federal government. We need the Army Corps of Engineer.
Speaker 2 (20:06):
Oh my god.
Speaker 3 (20:08):
Meantime, since the meeting, as of last night, eleven fires
eleven started by the by the vagrants, started by all
the drug addict mental patients.
Speaker 2 (20:20):
Eleven.
Speaker 3 (20:21):
They even have booby traps in the park there by
the way, beautiful park. I went there many times when
my kids were small, and they have baseball fields there
and soccer fields and a golf course and a lake
and it's just gorgeous.
Speaker 2 (20:38):
North of the one o one.
Speaker 3 (20:39):
It's west of the four oh five in Encino, I
think borders on Victory h and White Oak. This is
just astonishing that they let Carribes does nothing as she's
been They've hit seven hundred fires. Can you imagine the
thousands of calls that she's gotten. And this the these
these theseheads, Nithia Rahman, who's one of the city council people,
(21:03):
and Emelda Amelda Padilla. They do nothing and then Encino's
gonna burn. What are they gonna do? They're gonna give
us their thoughts and prayers. So this is what we
started talking about this at the end of the show
yesterday and we said we were going to do more
on it. We had somebody from the Encino Neighborhood Council
on in the first hour, so we had a promo
(21:25):
running all day. At about nine o'clock last night, Ray
and I both got on our emails addressed to John
Cobel Ray Lopez uh statement from the Mayor's office. Hello,
we heard that you're going to be covering the Supulvita
Basin tomorrow and we wanted to share this with you,
and I'm all excited right statement there. Bass is leading
(21:48):
a new approach to the Supulvta Basin to reduce safety threats.
Speaker 2 (21:50):
In the area. They mean new approach. You just get
rid of them, getn't a right to be there.
Speaker 3 (21:57):
This includes addressing challenges that been decades in the making.
That's false, stop in decades in the making, and we'll
take time to address comprehensively, like the long standing homeless encampments,
long standing, comprehensive decades in the making. Do like Trump did.
(22:18):
You get bulldozers and you clean them up, and after
you've cleaned them all up, you throw all the garbage
in big dump trucks and you drive off and you
tell the homeless people out out. Supreme Court says, this
is a public area. You have no right to sleep here.
Speaker 2 (22:36):
Out Mark, let's go out, and and if you don't.
Speaker 3 (22:40):
You're under arrest. You want to be arrested, you'll get
a roof over your head for a night. We'll put
Jane Jail, how about that, that's what you do. Come on, Oh,
let's say we have to address it comprehensively. It's decades
of the this and they said this to us because
this works on every bone head media person in Los Angeles,
(23:03):
every other reporter, every other producer, every other anchor. Well,
I mean, with the exception of a few, every assignment editor.
I mean you can see Mike Rogers over there a
Channel nine is buying it, and other people at Fox
eleven aren't buying it. La times, all those giggly little
(23:26):
girls from the community colleges with their silly, silly little
degrees in journalism. Last week, the deputy mayor of public Safety,
by the way, Bass's old deputy mayor was a guy
that's in prison right now for calling in bomb threats
(23:47):
to city Hall, and the deputy mayor of Community Engagement
whatever they f that is attended at NSINO community meeting
to answer questions directly from the residents. Well, we played
you some clips of that from Channel seven and Channel nine,
and everybody was saying, well, it's their responsibility, it's their responsibility,
it's all these all these agencies. No, it's your first
(24:08):
of all it's the mayor's responsibility, and she ought to
order the police to arrest the people who don't want
to leave voluntarily, and she out of the sanitation department
or wherever freaking department has the bulldozers and start clearing
the homeless out of there now. And then you if
you have fourteen people for Kamala Harris. By the way,
(24:28):
for those of you working overtime this weekend, bless you.
All right, it's a little more money for Kamala Harris's
LAPD security force.
Speaker 2 (24:36):
You're welcome, so he appreciated you're working. You're working extra
this weekend. Yeah, I gotta work amorrow night.
Speaker 3 (24:43):
But there you go there. Thank you for your contribution. Yes,
you're a city resident, aren't you. Yes, I am okay.
You're doing your part to keep Kamala Harris safe. Now,
these people in Ncino who are absolutely terrified that there's
another fire, seeds that come in after six months of
no rain, and there's there's eleven fires in the last week.
Speaker 2 (25:03):
Now, let me ask you this.
Speaker 3 (25:05):
If the Deputy Mayor of Public Safety and the Deputy
Mayor of Community Engagement, if they all went to this
meeting and everybody was screaming at them, wouldn't write that night,
they'd say, Okay, we got to get all have the
task for us and stop all this nonsense. Right, Instead,
there's eleven more fires and there was there was nobody
there to stop them. What is wrong with the did
(25:26):
they want us all to die? If if you were
planning to have a mass murder by fire, what would
you do differently?
Speaker 2 (25:37):
Like if you had a plan list, you know what
I'm going to see?
Speaker 3 (25:40):
If I could kill maybe one hundred residents of Mesino
and destroy a you know, five hundred homes.
Speaker 2 (25:45):
What would I do differently?
Speaker 3 (25:46):
Well, you you have three hundred people with access to
matches and gasoline, and they're wacked out on drugs and
they're mentally ill.
Speaker 2 (26:01):
How about it, guys, if you wanted to.
Speaker 3 (26:05):
Kill everybody in Encino, you what would you do differently?
This is such a bs Okay, you compare that, right,
I'm sorry. Trump shut the border down in a day.
He got he got the murder rate Washington C Washington
d C down to zero in two weeks.
Speaker 2 (26:26):
You could do this easily, Like all right, here's uh.
Speaker 3 (26:32):
The US attorney for Washington d C, Jeanine Piro Judge
Janine Fox News.
Speaker 2 (26:39):
She's now the attorney US attorney, like we have Bill A.
Saly Uh.
Speaker 3 (26:45):
Some months back, there were there was a there was
a congressional intern who was murdered. Well, they caught two
teenagers now here in LA. Those two teenagers would end
up spending maybe five years in juvenile detention. You know
what's going to happen with the US Attorney, Judge gen
(27:08):
Judge Janine Piro. These two teenagers, they've been charged with murder.
They're being charged as adults. Jaylen Lucas and Kelvin Thomas Junior,
they're seventeen. That's how you take care of problems. It's
real easy. They'll go away for life. We'll never hear
(27:30):
from them again. All right, We got round two of them.
Moistline coming up next.
Speaker 12 (27:35):
You're listening to John Cobelts on demand from KFI AM

Speaker 3 (27:59):

or use the talkback feature on the iHeartRadio app.
Speaker 2 (28:07):
Let's go and John, thanks.
Speaker 3 (28:09):
For calling them moist wine.
Speaker 19 (28:10):
I'm so excited to.
Speaker 2 (28:11):
Hear from you.
Speaker 14 (28:12):
Come out come.
Speaker 20 (28:13):
So they got money to pay for a bodyguard for Kamalo,
but they don't got money for firefighters and to fill
the reservoir and to help take care of the people
from the fire from the palisade. Yeah, where's all this
money coming from? If la Is broke California, damn near
broke its money for special election.
Speaker 18 (28:33):
This don't make no sense.
Speaker 11 (28:35):
Let's just be honest.
Speaker 7 (28:37):
No citizen gives a rat about Kamala Harris. The only
person that's app to kick her is her own husband.
Speaker 2 (28:45):
Give me a break.
Speaker 20 (28:47):
Oh worry, she'll get red room because the Olympics is coming.
Speaker 14 (28:52):
So sure, let Trump get red room.
Speaker 10 (28:54):
SAT's ahead of the Olympic committee and then show.
Speaker 6 (28:57):
Kawaine the president for John shut it down a long
time ago.
Speaker 2 (29:02):
So remember there's a huge event for the Olympics. Path
to Suppolita basin, all right to live in here, there's
the Pulaa Basin about them all away. That's where the
Balboa Park is at.
Speaker 14 (29:14):
And I can tell you there's a fire's there all
the time.
Speaker 1 (29:17):
Got Newsom will never be a leader, always a problem.
He hids in the shadows, learning Trump for his failures.
He constantly wanted the executive order away from a complete
all breakdown.
Speaker 19 (29:28):
I totally agree with you about Savannah. It is beautiful,
it's gorgeous. Earlier this year we visited.
Speaker 18 (29:35):
Charleston, South Carolina.
Speaker 19 (29:36):
It's a whole southeast areas. It's beautiful, it's clean, the
parks are clean and gorgeous. I can't wait to leave
California permanently.
Speaker 18 (29:45):
Born and raced here, but I can't wait to leave permanently.
Speaker 1 (29:49):
It's always been my dreaming to be on the moist line,
and finally I made it.
Speaker 19 (29:52):
You said that makes me an official influencer. So now
I'm only calling to add this to my resume.
Speaker 18 (29:59):
Paula Harris a security detail. She wants LAPD watching her.
I don't think so. She should have her own security
with those officers over an encino where people are getting
robbed forget Kamala Harris.
Speaker 14 (30:13):
I wonder if Karen Mann would have paid for Donald
Trump the security if he didn't win. I think so
or any Republican people of Lau that you'd kick her
out of office and then go after news. So these
guys are the worst of the worst.
Speaker 2 (30:29):
Feel bad for the guys in prison.
Speaker 7 (30:31):
Man.
Speaker 16 (30:31):
They need air conditioning, they need three.
Speaker 3 (30:33):
Or four meals a day, they need dessert, they need visits.
Speaker 20 (30:36):
Book.
Speaker 2 (30:37):
I cried booth on all of it.
Speaker 3 (30:39):
I worked my butt off to stay out of there,
you know, refusing them back what you said a few days.
Speaker 16 (30:44):
Ago about traveling out of California and how it's a
different world. I completely agree.
Speaker 19 (30:48):
Over the past decade out of trampled to central and
northern Wisconsin of a mission thing where I have a
lot of relatives, and it's is a completely different world.
Speaker 18 (30:56):
This was Kamala Harris getting laped.
Speaker 14 (30:59):
This is ridiculou What are they going to do?
Speaker 18 (31:01):
Come after her for failing to identify root causes.
Speaker 16 (31:04):
Give me a break.
Speaker 11 (31:05):
I'm just thinking, I'm tire of my friends complaining about
the price of bats foot companies.
Speaker 2 (31:11):
Like McDonald's or Carlos Junior.
Speaker 11 (31:13):
I remind them that the reason why prices are higher
is because of the Democrats of Akaa Gabam Newsom raise
the minimum wage for ridiculous prices. That's why the prices
are so so quick complaining. It's about time so the
electing Republicans instead of these Democrats who are ruining California.
Speaker 2 (31:32):
Thank you for leaving your message.
