Speaker 1 (00:01):
I am six forty. You're listening to the John Cobelt
podcast on the iHeartRadio app. We are on every day,
actually we're on constantly. We do it live from one
to four on KFI. You can hear the stream on
the iHeart Radio app and then the podcast posted after
four o'clock also on the app. It's John Cobelt's show
(00:22):
on demand and that is available all the time. For example,
if you miss Tom Homan on yesterday's show, you could
listen to the podcast from yesterday. He was on with
us in the first hour of the program. You'll be
able to listen to that whenever you want so iHeartRadio app.
Today's show posted after four o'clock. Sometimes you can't do
(00:47):
better than just read the press release. Supervise this. Orange
County Supervisors Don Ragner and Janet Wynn are introducing an
emergency agenda item that directs the Red Start to investigate,
disclosed and remove non human voter registrations and voting records
(01:07):
after felony charges against the owner of a dog that
voted in two elections. The woman was in Costa Mesa
and the dog, who is now deceased, voted in the
Newsome recall election. And also what was the other thing
it was for? It was a what was the other thing? Well,
(01:31):
it was two votes. And of course they're investigating Debora's
dogs because now they're under suspicion. You better live a
clean life, you know, we always have a target on
our back. I know, I know. And I was thinking,
you know, if they went after debor, what would they
go after? And probably your dog's voting record the first thing.
Speaker 2 (01:49):
No, they hate politics and politicians.
Speaker 1 (01:53):
Now we have we have Don Wagner coming on right, Okay,
Don Wagner, Range County Supervisor. He's going to talk about
this because you know, put aside the dog situation, there
are a lot of what they call dirty voting roles
in the state. In fact, in La County there was
(02:14):
a lawsuit and La County had to clear one point
six million ineligible voters. Let's get Don Wagner on Orange
County Supervisor. Don, how are you?
Speaker 3 (02:26):
I'm good, John, how are you well?
Speaker 1 (02:28):
This has become quite a story. The dog that voted
twice the other.
Speaker 3 (02:33):
Election was the twenty two primary.
Speaker 1 (02:36):
To twenty two primary. Now have they found out if
this dog was a Newsome voter? Was this dog part
of the problem.
Speaker 3 (02:44):
Oh now, now that's funny, because I tried to get
our registrar to at least tell me was the dog
registered Republican, Democrat, no party preference and he wouldn't do
it because of the privacy law. And I thought, wait
a minute, Wait a minute, wait a minute, it's a dog. Dog.
Dogs don't have privacy rights. And the dog dead. He said, no,
(03:04):
he wouldn't. You wouldn't tell me. You can't make this up, John,
A dead dog, inked. I was trying to get the
registration he wouldn't tell me. Turns out it was a
no party preference voter. It was yes. I know, you
(03:27):
have to laugh.
Speaker 1 (03:28):
It's so really, this is the Orange County Registrar.
Speaker 3 (03:33):
Orange County Registrar, my advisive counsel. I can't tell you, supervisor,
whether it was a Republican or a Democrat or a
no party preference. It's a privacy. It's a dog, it's
a dead dog. I have emails. I have I have
half a dozen emails and this he wouldn't tell me.
Speaker 1 (03:56):
Really, no, could you to us? I'd love to read
them on the air.
Speaker 3 (04:03):
I will forward those to you.
Speaker 1 (04:04):
Okay.
Speaker 3 (04:05):
He finally found late yesterday after I just went ballistic.
He finally forwarded us late yesterday. Apparently there is some
exception to those no disclosure rules when it's a public issue.
So he finally told me at about seven thirty last
night that this was a no party preference. Dog. You
(04:31):
just you gotta laugh because it's a serious problem, but
you gotta laugh.
Speaker 1 (04:36):
Yeah. Now, now, what's this? I'm sorry, I'm just maybing
done for the rest of the show. So what's this?
What's this agenda item? What do you want the registrar?
And by the way, his name is Bob Page, just
so you know, uh, you want him to investigate and
do what here?
Speaker 3 (04:55):
So so here here's the issue. And by the way,
it got voted down by the three Democrats on my
voy board voted against the item that Supervisor Win and
I brought. And it was and the reason we did
it on an emergency basis is because tomorrow is the
day that registrar is going to run all the voting
records so that they can start printing ballots for the
(05:15):
gerrymanderin special election in November. So tomorrow they're going to
run the roles and what Janet and I were asking
today was you know, at least take the next twenty
four hours and let's investigate. Are there other dogs? Are
there cats? How do we clean our voter rolls before
we run them? And that got voted down three to two.
Speaker 1 (05:37):
Really, yes, they won't even let you clean the voter
rolls of dead dogs and dead cats.
Speaker 3 (05:45):
They would not let us bring it up today. They said, oh,
come back on, you know at our next meeting. It's like,
all right, we will, but by then the voter roles
have been run.
Speaker 1 (05:55):
What is going on? It seems like everybody's insane.
Speaker 3 (05:58):
Now, well we it is. Everybody is insane, and you
just you can't make it up. When they're saying privacy
for a dog prevents us from cleaning the voting roles
or or at least even admitting anything about this dog.
It's surreal. But we have we have Obviously there's a
(06:19):
problem there, and you know, we're in the middle of
a lawsuit from the Department of Justice. There are seventeen
self admitted and that's critical. These people have admitted that
they are here illegally and they are registered to vote,
and the registrar is fighting the Department of Justice to
not turn over the unredacted records of those voters. Now
(06:43):
those voters know who they are, they've registered, they have
self admitted, and we can't even get a hold of
that type of information to see how do they register?
How did this dog get registered? Where are the holes
in the system that's allowing this to happen? And is
it the tip of the iceberg or is there a
whole big chunk of ice below there where we have
(07:05):
problems And it's like, Nope, nothing to see here. Privacy
in California, you can't you can't investigate this.
Speaker 1 (07:12):
Well, if La County had over we've got to be
able to clear our roles. If La County had over
a million and a half ineligible names on the voter rolls,
you could easily have five hundred thousand.
Speaker 3 (07:27):
Absolutely they had more. They had more registered voters than
human beings living in Los Angeles. There's a problem. There
is a problem, and it's clearly here in Orange County
as well, and no willingness on the part of my
board to confront it head on.
Speaker 1 (07:45):
And there's no way to know how many of these people,
people who moved, people who are dead dogs that are dead,
illegal aliens. You know, all the categories, how many of
them actually vote, or people will steal their names and
use their identities to vote.
Speaker 3 (08:05):
It's why we need voter ID. Apparently the way they
found out about this dog was that there wasn't a
dog didn't have any voter ID when it tried to
vote in the in the twenty two general primary election.
And when you're voting just your first time, you're supposed
to show an ID unless it's only a state election,
(08:27):
because the state will not do voter ID. And so
that dog's vote counted in the Newsom recall, at least
it didn't count in twenty two. And and there's there's
just a problem here that we're not allowed Apparently we're
not allowed to even ask the questions. They voted against
bringing the questions to the registrar today.
Speaker 1 (08:51):
That's very suspicious because they don't know what this would
lead to, and and and the Prop fifty LL they
don't really want to hear that. They don't want that
news to be leaking out. And because they want they
want these voters for the Prop fifty election in November.
Speaker 3 (09:10):
We need our roles to be clear, wow and clean
and well, that's a bridge too far.
Speaker 1 (09:18):
Well, don that's the biggest laugh I had in a while.
Thank you very much for coming on. You're welcome in
Orange County, said, and send us those emails. Send it
to Ray, I'll send you. Okay, all right. Don Wager
the Orange County Supervisor, and uh uh yeah, the registrar,
Bob Page, that's his name in Orange County. You are
(09:39):
paying your tax money to Bob Page too, and he
is zealously protecting the privacy rights of a dead dog.
So we don't know how this person, how this dog
was registered as a Democrat or Republican or a non
partisan voter. Great, uh, we live in great times.
Speaker 4 (10:01):
You're listening to John Cobelt on demand from KFI A
six forty.
Speaker 1 (10:08):
We are on every day from one until four o'clock.
You can't get this stuff anywhere else after four John
Cobelt Show on demand on the iHeart app. Well, we
just had Don Wagner on from he's the Orange Kunty
supervisor and he told us how the two dogs, No,
(10:29):
the dog who voted twice in recent elections died. Don
Wagner was trying to get information about the dogs vote.
Wants to find out if he was registered as a
Republican or Democrat right, and the registrar the registrar Bob
Page would not tell Wagner for quite a while, claiming
(10:53):
that it violates privacy laws. Now, A, it's a dog,
and b it's a dead dog. And what did what
did Bob Page think was going to happen? If he
told Wagner what the registration was, the political registration.
Speaker 2 (11:10):
The dog would rise from the dead and file a lawsuit.
Speaker 1 (11:14):
Let the dog have standing? Do dogs have the legal
rights to sue? Probably in California. Yeah, it's just unbelievable. Well,
when we get the email exchange between Bob Page and
Don Wagner, we're going to read it to you. All right, now,
(11:37):
this this you're not going to believe how many times
the day?
Speaker 2 (11:40):
Why say all the time and every time you're right.
Speaker 1 (11:43):
There's too many things. Okay, So we told you as
late as yesterday, and we have for months, that gas
is likely to go up to eight to ten dollars
a gallon over the next months, maybe you know, three months,
six months, a year. It's not precise, and it's going
to happen, but it's going to happen. One of the
big reasons is two refineries are closing. Phillip sixty six
(12:06):
is closing one refinery down in the La Or area
here in Carson, and Villero is closing a refinery up
in northern California in Benetia. And this this finally got
Newsom into a panic because the reason for the closure
is Newsom's excessive punishing taxes and regulation and Phillip sixty
(12:33):
six and Valero said, can't do it anymore, We're done.
So Newsom is trying to get a buyer for the
Valero refinery in Benetia, and they were going worldwide. They
cannot find one plan B. California legislators are considereding paying
(13:01):
Valero hundreds of millions of dollars to cover maintenance costs
to prevent the closure of the refinery. Between eighty and
two hundred million dollars of state funds would be spent
on the maintenance work. But it doesn't say, look, I
(13:24):
assume this is our tax money or is this some
of the money they've already stolen from the oil companies
with the with their with their excessive taxes, Like where
is this money coming from? Because I guess they couldn't
find a buyer because who's going to who's going to
buy something that I guess loses a lot of money
because the taxes and regulations are overwhelming. Under the deal,
(13:49):
the state would pay Valero to can you continue operating?
It's Benetia refinery. It's going to close in April, the
latest in a string of California fuel plant shutdowns. Benetia.
The town would be in big trouble because they're gonna
lose ten million dollars if Valera closes, big hit to
(14:10):
the budget. According to the mayor, Steve Young. That isn't
Steve Young, the ex football player, is it? Probably another one.
Maintenance is one of the biggest operating costs for refiners,
and the expense of major overhauls every four or five
years can be a catalyst for closure. Now, they they
(14:37):
charge us excessive amounts in gas taxes, and then they
overregulate the refineries and that adds to the gas price.
They also tax the refineries, so they have all kinds
of income coming in with the state, billions and billions
of dollars, and it just makes everything difficult, and there's
(15:00):
no reason for it. None of the other states do this,
none of them. There's no state anywhere close to the
price of our gas. I was coming out of lax
the other night, five twenty nine, a gallon down some
Polota Bullvard all the stations at five twenty nine after
the plane landed. That's what hit me. Valerio's not commenting. Oh,
(15:21):
Newsom's office is not commenting. The state Senate and Assembly
leaders are not commenting. Boy, these guys are clowns. These
guys are absolute bozos. Newsom has been trashing the oil
companies for years, claiming they were gouging us, that they're
(15:44):
all greedy and awful and horrible. And the oil companies
called this buffet, said fine, we're gone. Can't afford this
place anyway. And now he's begging him to stay, and
they said, no, well we'll find you another buyer. Go ahead.
I couldn't find another buyer, all right, how about if
we pay you. Wow? What an embarrassment he is. He
(16:07):
is such an embarrassment. This is such bad policy. This
is bad, bad, bad, bad policy. And you want to
give more power with the redistricting of the congressional seats.
You wanted him to be president. Really, the hell is
wrong with people? All right? To stop for a moment,
(16:30):
I'm very tired, you are. Yeah, when we come back,
I gotta talk about this poor woman in Charlotte got
stabbed to death by that by that monster, because more
terrible stuff has come out about him and about what
she went through. That is next.
Speaker 4 (16:48):
You're listening to John Cobels on demand from KFI AM
six forty.
Speaker 1 (16:54):
Moist lying for Friday is eight seven seven Moist steady
six eight seven seven Moist steady six. You usually talk
about feature on the iHeartRadio app. This story makes me
physically sick. And it's about Irena Zarutska, the Ukrainian war refugee,
twenty three year old, beautiful woman who is in Charlotte.
(17:16):
She escaped the war. She was working in Charlotte. Now
and she's taking the local train, sits down in her
seat and there is this monster beast sitting behind her
that moved in in the row behind her, and he
gets up and pulls out a large knife and starts
(17:40):
stabbing repeatedly. Now, yesterday there was the video of him
standing up and pulling out the knife, but she doesn't
know he's there yet. Now they're publishing more photos and video,
and I'm looking at some of the photos here because
he got up and faced her from the aisle and
(18:03):
is looming over her, and she looks absolutely horrified, terrified,
trying to cover her face, bawling up onto the seat.
She looks so scared and helpless. And this is right
before he pulls the niath out and slaughters her.
Speaker 2 (18:24):
And nobody on this train helped, nobody grabbed him, nobody
did anything.
Speaker 1 (18:31):
No, he walked by with blood dripping from his knife
for his clothing and you can see the drops of blood,
and nobody did anything.
Speaker 2 (18:40):
Well, I can imagine at that point you're scared that
you're going to be the next victim.
Speaker 1 (18:44):
Yeah, but you know there was a woman across from
her and she's looks terrified, leaning up against the opposite door. Oh,
I'll just never forget that. I mean, it's just it's
just so so awful. And it turns out he was
(19:05):
arrested fourteen times. Fourteen times. I've got to get the
news story here the Free Press. You go to go
to the FP dot com and they have a rundown
(19:30):
of what happened. Just bear with me a second. It did.
This stupid thing is reloading on me and they have
mugshots out. Now, all this fourteen mugshots lined up, and
(19:51):
it turns out that this was what the last two
Democratic governors put into place, and they got rid of bail, basically,
they got rid of cash bail, and they deprioritized a
lot of felonies, so prison wasn't an option much of
(20:14):
the time anymore, or if he went to prison, it
would be for a short time. And then they have
a mayor named vy Lyles, and she's an older woman,
she's an idiot in the Karen Bass mode. And she
(20:36):
demanded the same compassion, diligence and commitment as cancer and
heart disease for Brown for his mental illness. She demanded
compassion for the mental illness that Brown was suffering from
that led him to slaughter. Arina Zarutska, she said she's
(21:03):
not villainizing those who struggle with their mental health or
those who are unhoused.
Speaker 2 (21:10):
By Lyles, how would she feel if that was her daughter.
I don't think she'd be saying the same thing.
Speaker 1 (21:18):
She says. Mental health, like the schizophrenia Brown was diagnosed with,
needs to be treated with the same compassion, diligence and
commitment as cancer and heart disease. Those who are unhoused frequent,
are more frequently the victims of crimes and not the perpetrators.
The hell was she talking about? So here's the rundown.
(21:44):
His name is Di Carlos Brown Di Carlos. He's charged
with first degree murder. A career criminal fourteen previous arrests,
including robbery and assault. Here's a few details. In twenty fourteen,
Brown was arrested for armed robbery and sentenced to prison.
He was released in September of twenty twenty. In February
(22:05):
of twenty one, he was arrested again for assaulting his sister,
leaving her with minor injuries. Within weeks, he was arrested
for injury to personal property and trespassing. In July of
twenty twenty two, he was arrested for a domestic disturbance.
His criminal record goes back to when he was a minor.
He has a history of mental illness. His mother told
a Charlotte TV station she noticed aggressive behavior after Brown
(22:26):
was released from prison on the armed robbery conviction. Eventually
she got an involuntary commitment order from the courts. He
was under psychiatric monitoring for two weeks and diagnosed with schizophrenia.
After the monitoring ended. His aggression got worse and she
had to kick him out. In January of this year,
Brown was charged with misusing nine to one one. The
(22:48):
officers were called to his home. They spoke with him.
He told them that someone gave him men made material
that controlled what he ate and where he walked in talked.
Brown then wanted the officers to investigate the material that
was inside of his body. They told him he was
experiencing a medical issue. They couldn't do anything for him,
(23:10):
so he called nine to one one right in front
of the officers. This is all in the court records,
but a magistrate, Teresa Stokes, allowed Brown to be released
from prison because he made a written promise to appear
in court at a later date, And during a July
twenty ninth hearing about the same case, a local judge,
(23:31):
Roy Wiggins ordered a forensic evaluation but did not detain Brown.
He remained free and Brown was still a waiting trial
when he boarded the train on August twenty second and
killed Irena Zorutska, and the mayor says she wants compassion
for Brown because of his mental health and unhoused conditions.
(23:58):
Wiles didn't mention his career criminal status. In her comments,
she said, we have to do better for those members
of our community who need help and have no place
to go. Can't you see Bass saying all this? My god,
this is this is just the worst thing I have
seen and heard of in quite a while. I cannot believe.
(24:21):
The Progressives all have to go. They have to be
chased out of office. No more discussing with them anything.
The progressives are disgusting and destructive. They kill people, They
cause towns to burn, they cause people to die, people
(24:42):
get raped, people get murdered because of progressive policy. The
last two governors of North Carolina got rid of bail.
I'll give you a rundown on that part when we
come back.
Speaker 4 (24:53):
You're listening to John Cobelts on demand from KFI Am sixty.
Speaker 1 (24:59):
John coblt Show, so you can follow us at John
Cobolt Radio on social media at John Cobelt Radio. We're
continuing about this brutal, vicious murder of this poor Ukrainian
war refugee, beautiful girl twenty three years old. Her name's
Irena Zarutska, and they released video and photos today of
(25:22):
her cowering and fear trying to cover her face balled ups.
Scared of this monster with his dreadlocks. He's got tattoos
up to his neck, arrested fourteen times, he was schizophrenic,
and nothing in the North Carolina government worked nothing. They
(25:44):
didn't put him in a mental institution. They didn't put
him in prison and keep him there. Fourteen arrests, fourteen mugshots.
Go look this up. Caroline Levity is the spokesperson for Trump,
and I don't know how many left wing TV networks
or media outlets broadcast her comments here, but I'm going
(26:10):
to read them all the way Back in twenty twenty,
North Carolina's then Democrat Governor Roy Cooper established a so
called Task Force for Racial Equity and Criminal Justice. Sounds nice,
but it's not. That task force was co authored by
the then Attorney General and current Democrat Governor Josh Stein
(26:33):
and recommended quote reimagining public safety to promote diversion and
other alternatives to arrest. It also advised to deemphasize some
felony crimes, prioritize restorative justice, and elimited cash bail. Democrats
(26:55):
in North Carolina and nationwide are consumed with pushing awoke
soft on crime agenda, no matter how many minutes innocent
American suffer as a result. I'm sorry if they're seeing
that video and seeing what's going on here in La
you know what, I don't care. He had to send
in the National Guard, send in the Marines, he can
(27:16):
send in the army, he can declare martial law. Uh
and you hear what they ought to do is have
Ice round up all the city council members and Karen Bass.
They ought to round up the mayor in uh in
uh Charlotte and that city council and just take them
out of the country, go send them to that El
(27:38):
Salvador Superbacks prison and could spend their time with all
the violent gang member felons that they love. I mean,
this is this is this, This is overwhelmingly awful. This is
horrible and every day I mean if these who why
do people elect these a holes? Why their policies are awful?
(28:03):
They result in violence and death. They have failed now
for many years. Why why why do people do this?
Nobody ever used to vote people like this. We nobody
had these philosophies. Why would you, I'm telling you, look
(28:24):
up this guy and look at all the photos and
look at at at Irena Sarutska cowering in her seat
right before she was stabbed, repeatedly de Carlos Brown, I
(28:45):
don't understand. And then Mayor actually goes out there and says, well,
we have to have compassion for him, for him, for
his mental illness and his unhoused status. Really she said that, Really,
that's what she believes. And she's the mayor of Charlotte,
and we have that governing us here. Three quarters of
(29:08):
the city councils like that. I don't understand. All right,
Conways up next, and we have Michael Krozer live in
the CAFI twenty for our newsroom. Hey, you've been listening
to The John Cobalt Show podcast. You can always hear

(00:47):
better than just read the press release. Supervise this. Orange
County Supervisors Don Ragner and Janet Wynn are introducing an
emergency agenda item that directs the Red Start to investigate,
disclosed and remove non human voter registrations and voting records
(01:07):
after felony charges against the owner of a dog that
voted in two elections. The woman was in Costa Mesa
and the dog, who is now deceased, voted in the
Newsome recall election. And also what was the other thing
it was for? It was a what was the other thing? Well,
(01:31):
it was two votes. And of course they're investigating Debora's
dogs because now they're under suspicion. You better live a
clean life, you know, we always have a target on
our back. I know, I know. And I was thinking,
you know, if they went after debor, what would they
go after? And probably your dog's voting record the first thing.
Speaker 2 (01:49):
No, they hate politics and politicians.
Speaker 1 (01:53):
Now we have we have Don Wagner coming on right, Okay,
Don Wagner, Range County Supervisor. He's going to talk about
this because you know, put aside the dog situation, there
are a lot of what they call dirty voting roles
in the state. In fact, in La County there was
(02:14):
a lawsuit and La County had to clear one point
six million ineligible voters. Let's get Don Wagner on Orange
County Supervisor. Don, how are you?
Speaker 3 (02:26):
I'm good, John, how are you well?
Speaker 1 (02:28):
This has become quite a story. The dog that voted
twice the other.
Speaker 3 (02:33):
Election was the twenty two primary.
Speaker 1 (02:36):
To twenty two primary. Now have they found out if
this dog was a Newsome voter? Was this dog part
of the problem.
Speaker 3 (02:44):
Oh now, now that's funny, because I tried to get
our registrar to at least tell me was the dog
registered Republican, Democrat, no party preference and he wouldn't do
it because of the privacy law. And I thought, wait
a minute, Wait a minute, wait a minute, it's a dog. Dog.
Dogs don't have privacy rights. And the dog dead. He said, no,
(03:04):
he wouldn't. You wouldn't tell me. You can't make this up, John,
A dead dog, inked. I was trying to get the
registration he wouldn't tell me. Turns out it was a
no party preference voter. It was yes. I know, you
(03:27):
have to laugh.
Speaker 1 (03:28):
It's so really, this is the Orange County Registrar.
Speaker 3 (03:33):
Orange County Registrar, my advisive counsel. I can't tell you, supervisor,
whether it was a Republican or a Democrat or a
no party preference. It's a privacy. It's a dog, it's
a dead dog. I have emails. I have I have
half a dozen emails and this he wouldn't tell me.
Speaker 1 (03:56):
Really, no, could you to us? I'd love to read
them on the air.
Speaker 3 (04:03):
I will forward those to you.
Speaker 1 (04:04):
Okay.
Speaker 3 (04:05):
He finally found late yesterday after I just went ballistic.
He finally forwarded us late yesterday. Apparently there is some
exception to those no disclosure rules when it's a public issue.
So he finally told me at about seven thirty last
night that this was a no party preference. Dog. You
(04:31):
just you gotta laugh because it's a serious problem, but
you gotta laugh.
Speaker 1 (04:36):
Yeah. Now, now, what's this? I'm sorry, I'm just maybing
done for the rest of the show. So what's this?
What's this agenda item? What do you want the registrar?
And by the way, his name is Bob Page, just
so you know, uh, you want him to investigate and
do what here?
Speaker 3 (04:55):
So so here here's the issue. And by the way,
it got voted down by the three Democrats on my
voy board voted against the item that Supervisor Win and
I brought. And it was and the reason we did
it on an emergency basis is because tomorrow is the
day that registrar is going to run all the voting
records so that they can start printing ballots for the
(05:15):
gerrymanderin special election in November. So tomorrow they're going to
run the roles and what Janet and I were asking
today was you know, at least take the next twenty
four hours and let's investigate. Are there other dogs? Are
there cats? How do we clean our voter rolls before
we run them? And that got voted down three to two.
Speaker 1 (05:37):
Really, yes, they won't even let you clean the voter
rolls of dead dogs and dead cats.
Speaker 3 (05:45):
They would not let us bring it up today. They said, oh,
come back on, you know at our next meeting. It's like,
all right, we will, but by then the voter roles
have been run.
Speaker 1 (05:55):
What is going on? It seems like everybody's insane.
Speaker 3 (05:58):
Now, well we it is. Everybody is insane, and you
just you can't make it up. When they're saying privacy
for a dog prevents us from cleaning the voting roles
or or at least even admitting anything about this dog.
It's surreal. But we have we have Obviously there's a
(06:19):
problem there, and you know, we're in the middle of
a lawsuit from the Department of Justice. There are seventeen
self admitted and that's critical. These people have admitted that
they are here illegally and they are registered to vote,
and the registrar is fighting the Department of Justice to
not turn over the unredacted records of those voters. Now
(06:43):
those voters know who they are, they've registered, they have
self admitted, and we can't even get a hold of
that type of information to see how do they register?
How did this dog get registered? Where are the holes
in the system that's allowing this to happen? And is
it the tip of the iceberg or is there a
whole big chunk of ice below there where we have
(07:05):
problems And it's like, Nope, nothing to see here. Privacy
in California, you can't you can't investigate this.
Speaker 1 (07:12):
Well, if La County had over we've got to be
able to clear our roles. If La County had over
a million and a half ineligible names on the voter rolls,
you could easily have five hundred thousand.
Speaker 3 (07:27):
Absolutely they had more. They had more registered voters than
human beings living in Los Angeles. There's a problem. There
is a problem, and it's clearly here in Orange County
as well, and no willingness on the part of my
board to confront it head on.
Speaker 1 (07:45):
And there's no way to know how many of these people,
people who moved, people who are dead dogs that are dead,
illegal aliens. You know, all the categories, how many of
them actually vote, or people will steal their names and
use their identities to vote.
Speaker 3 (08:05):
It's why we need voter ID. Apparently the way they
found out about this dog was that there wasn't a
dog didn't have any voter ID when it tried to
vote in the in the twenty two general primary election.
And when you're voting just your first time, you're supposed
to show an ID unless it's only a state election,
(08:27):
because the state will not do voter ID. And so
that dog's vote counted in the Newsom recall, at least
it didn't count in twenty two. And and there's there's
just a problem here that we're not allowed Apparently we're
not allowed to even ask the questions. They voted against
bringing the questions to the registrar today.
Speaker 1 (08:51):
That's very suspicious because they don't know what this would
lead to, and and and the Prop fifty LL they
don't really want to hear that. They don't want that
news to be leaking out. And because they want they
want these voters for the Prop fifty election in November.
Speaker 3 (09:10):
We need our roles to be clear, wow and clean
and well, that's a bridge too far.
Speaker 1 (09:18):
Well, don that's the biggest laugh I had in a while.
Thank you very much for coming on. You're welcome in
Orange County, said, and send us those emails. Send it
to Ray, I'll send you. Okay, all right. Don Wager
the Orange County Supervisor, and uh uh yeah, the registrar,
Bob Page, that's his name in Orange County. You are
(09:39):
paying your tax money to Bob Page too, and he
is zealously protecting the privacy rights of a dead dog.
So we don't know how this person, how this dog
was registered as a Democrat or Republican or a non
partisan voter. Great, uh, we live in great times.
Speaker 4 (10:01):
You're listening to John Cobelt on demand from KFI A
six forty.
Speaker 1 (10:08):
We are on every day from one until four o'clock.
You can't get this stuff anywhere else after four John
Cobelt Show on demand on the iHeart app. Well, we
just had Don Wagner on from he's the Orange Kunty
supervisor and he told us how the two dogs, No,
(10:29):
the dog who voted twice in recent elections died. Don
Wagner was trying to get information about the dogs vote.
Wants to find out if he was registered as a
Republican or Democrat right, and the registrar the registrar Bob
Page would not tell Wagner for quite a while, claiming
(10:53):
that it violates privacy laws. Now, A, it's a dog,
and b it's a dead dog. And what did what
did Bob Page think was going to happen? If he
told Wagner what the registration was, the political registration.
Speaker 2 (11:10):
The dog would rise from the dead and file a lawsuit.
Speaker 1 (11:14):
Let the dog have standing? Do dogs have the legal
rights to sue? Probably in California. Yeah, it's just unbelievable. Well,
when we get the email exchange between Bob Page and
Don Wagner, we're going to read it to you. All right, now,
(11:37):
this this you're not going to believe how many times
the day?
Speaker 2 (11:40):
Why say all the time and every time you're right.
Speaker 1 (11:43):
There's too many things. Okay, So we told you as
late as yesterday, and we have for months, that gas
is likely to go up to eight to ten dollars
a gallon over the next months, maybe you know, three months,
six months, a year. It's not precise, and it's going
to happen, but it's going to happen. One of the
big reasons is two refineries are closing. Phillip sixty six
(12:06):
is closing one refinery down in the La Or area
here in Carson, and Villero is closing a refinery up
in northern California in Benetia. And this this finally got
Newsom into a panic because the reason for the closure
is Newsom's excessive punishing taxes and regulation and Phillip sixty
(12:33):
six and Valero said, can't do it anymore, We're done.
So Newsom is trying to get a buyer for the
Valero refinery in Benetia, and they were going worldwide. They
cannot find one plan B. California legislators are considereding paying
(13:01):
Valero hundreds of millions of dollars to cover maintenance costs
to prevent the closure of the refinery. Between eighty and
two hundred million dollars of state funds would be spent
on the maintenance work. But it doesn't say, look, I
(13:24):
assume this is our tax money or is this some
of the money they've already stolen from the oil companies
with the with their with their excessive taxes, Like where
is this money coming from? Because I guess they couldn't
find a buyer because who's going to who's going to
buy something that I guess loses a lot of money
because the taxes and regulations are overwhelming. Under the deal,
(13:49):
the state would pay Valero to can you continue operating?
It's Benetia refinery. It's going to close in April, the
latest in a string of California fuel plant shutdowns. Benetia.
The town would be in big trouble because they're gonna
lose ten million dollars if Valera closes, big hit to
(14:10):
the budget. According to the mayor, Steve Young. That isn't
Steve Young, the ex football player, is it? Probably another one.
Maintenance is one of the biggest operating costs for refiners,
and the expense of major overhauls every four or five
years can be a catalyst for closure. Now, they they
(14:37):
charge us excessive amounts in gas taxes, and then they
overregulate the refineries and that adds to the gas price.
They also tax the refineries, so they have all kinds
of income coming in with the state, billions and billions
of dollars, and it just makes everything difficult, and there's
(15:00):
no reason for it. None of the other states do this,
none of them. There's no state anywhere close to the
price of our gas. I was coming out of lax
the other night, five twenty nine, a gallon down some
Polota Bullvard all the stations at five twenty nine after
the plane landed. That's what hit me. Valerio's not commenting. Oh,
(15:21):
Newsom's office is not commenting. The state Senate and Assembly
leaders are not commenting. Boy, these guys are clowns. These
guys are absolute bozos. Newsom has been trashing the oil
companies for years, claiming they were gouging us, that they're
(15:44):
all greedy and awful and horrible. And the oil companies
called this buffet, said fine, we're gone. Can't afford this
place anyway. And now he's begging him to stay, and
they said, no, well we'll find you another buyer. Go ahead.
I couldn't find another buyer, all right, how about if
we pay you. Wow? What an embarrassment he is. He
(16:07):
is such an embarrassment. This is such bad policy. This
is bad, bad, bad, bad policy. And you want to
give more power with the redistricting of the congressional seats.
You wanted him to be president. Really, the hell is
wrong with people? All right? To stop for a moment,
(16:30):
I'm very tired, you are. Yeah, when we come back,
I gotta talk about this poor woman in Charlotte got
stabbed to death by that by that monster, because more
terrible stuff has come out about him and about what
she went through. That is next.
Speaker 4 (16:48):
You're listening to John Cobels on demand from KFI AM
six forty.
Speaker 1 (16:54):
Moist lying for Friday is eight seven seven Moist steady
six eight seven seven Moist steady six. You usually talk
about feature on the iHeartRadio app. This story makes me
physically sick. And it's about Irena Zarutska, the Ukrainian war refugee,
twenty three year old, beautiful woman who is in Charlotte.
(17:16):
She escaped the war. She was working in Charlotte. Now
and she's taking the local train, sits down in her
seat and there is this monster beast sitting behind her
that moved in in the row behind her, and he
gets up and pulls out a large knife and starts
(17:40):
stabbing repeatedly. Now, yesterday there was the video of him
standing up and pulling out the knife, but she doesn't
know he's there yet. Now they're publishing more photos and video,
and I'm looking at some of the photos here because
he got up and faced her from the aisle and
(18:03):
is looming over her, and she looks absolutely horrified, terrified,
trying to cover her face, bawling up onto the seat.
She looks so scared and helpless. And this is right
before he pulls the niath out and slaughters her.
Speaker 2 (18:24):
And nobody on this train helped, nobody grabbed him, nobody
did anything.
Speaker 1 (18:31):
No, he walked by with blood dripping from his knife
for his clothing and you can see the drops of blood,
and nobody did anything.
Speaker 2 (18:40):
Well, I can imagine at that point you're scared that
you're going to be the next victim.
Speaker 1 (18:44):
Yeah, but you know there was a woman across from
her and she's looks terrified, leaning up against the opposite door. Oh,
I'll just never forget that. I mean, it's just it's
just so so awful. And it turns out he was
(19:05):
arrested fourteen times. Fourteen times. I've got to get the
news story here the Free Press. You go to go
to the FP dot com and they have a rundown
(19:30):
of what happened. Just bear with me a second. It did.
This stupid thing is reloading on me and they have
mugshots out. Now, all this fourteen mugshots lined up, and
(19:51):
it turns out that this was what the last two
Democratic governors put into place, and they got rid of bail, basically,
they got rid of cash bail, and they deprioritized a
lot of felonies, so prison wasn't an option much of
(20:14):
the time anymore, or if he went to prison, it
would be for a short time. And then they have
a mayor named vy Lyles, and she's an older woman,
she's an idiot in the Karen Bass mode. And she
(20:36):
demanded the same compassion, diligence and commitment as cancer and
heart disease for Brown for his mental illness. She demanded
compassion for the mental illness that Brown was suffering from
that led him to slaughter. Arina Zarutska, she said she's
(21:03):
not villainizing those who struggle with their mental health or
those who are unhoused.
Speaker 2 (21:10):
By Lyles, how would she feel if that was her daughter.
I don't think she'd be saying the same thing.
Speaker 1 (21:18):
She says. Mental health, like the schizophrenia Brown was diagnosed with,
needs to be treated with the same compassion, diligence and
commitment as cancer and heart disease. Those who are unhoused frequent,
are more frequently the victims of crimes and not the perpetrators.
The hell was she talking about? So here's the rundown.
(21:44):
His name is Di Carlos Brown Di Carlos. He's charged
with first degree murder. A career criminal fourteen previous arrests,
including robbery and assault. Here's a few details. In twenty fourteen,
Brown was arrested for armed robbery and sentenced to prison.
He was released in September of twenty twenty. In February
(22:05):
of twenty one, he was arrested again for assaulting his sister,
leaving her with minor injuries. Within weeks, he was arrested
for injury to personal property and trespassing. In July of
twenty twenty two, he was arrested for a domestic disturbance.
His criminal record goes back to when he was a minor.
He has a history of mental illness. His mother told
a Charlotte TV station she noticed aggressive behavior after Brown
(22:26):
was released from prison on the armed robbery conviction. Eventually
she got an involuntary commitment order from the courts. He
was under psychiatric monitoring for two weeks and diagnosed with schizophrenia.
After the monitoring ended. His aggression got worse and she
had to kick him out. In January of this year,
Brown was charged with misusing nine to one one. The
(22:48):
officers were called to his home. They spoke with him.
He told them that someone gave him men made material
that controlled what he ate and where he walked in talked.
Brown then wanted the officers to investigate the material that
was inside of his body. They told him he was
experiencing a medical issue. They couldn't do anything for him,
(23:10):
so he called nine to one one right in front
of the officers. This is all in the court records,
but a magistrate, Teresa Stokes, allowed Brown to be released
from prison because he made a written promise to appear
in court at a later date, And during a July
twenty ninth hearing about the same case, a local judge,
(23:31):
Roy Wiggins ordered a forensic evaluation but did not detain Brown.
He remained free and Brown was still a waiting trial
when he boarded the train on August twenty second and
killed Irena Zorutska, and the mayor says she wants compassion
for Brown because of his mental health and unhoused conditions.
(23:58):
Wiles didn't mention his career criminal status. In her comments,
she said, we have to do better for those members
of our community who need help and have no place
to go. Can't you see Bass saying all this? My god,
this is this is just the worst thing I have
seen and heard of in quite a while. I cannot believe.
(24:21):
The Progressives all have to go. They have to be
chased out of office. No more discussing with them anything.
The progressives are disgusting and destructive. They kill people, They
cause towns to burn, they cause people to die, people
(24:42):
get raped, people get murdered because of progressive policy. The
last two governors of North Carolina got rid of bail.
I'll give you a rundown on that part when we
come back.
Speaker 4 (24:53):
You're listening to John Cobelts on demand from KFI Am sixty.
Speaker 1 (24:59):
John coblt Show, so you can follow us at John
Cobolt Radio on social media at John Cobelt Radio. We're
continuing about this brutal, vicious murder of this poor Ukrainian
war refugee, beautiful girl twenty three years old. Her name's
Irena Zarutska, and they released video and photos today of
(25:22):
her cowering and fear trying to cover her face balled ups.
Scared of this monster with his dreadlocks. He's got tattoos
up to his neck, arrested fourteen times, he was schizophrenic,
and nothing in the North Carolina government worked nothing. They
(25:44):
didn't put him in a mental institution. They didn't put
him in prison and keep him there. Fourteen arrests, fourteen mugshots.
Go look this up. Caroline Levity is the spokesperson for Trump,
and I don't know how many left wing TV networks
or media outlets broadcast her comments here, but I'm going
(26:10):
to read them all the way Back in twenty twenty,
North Carolina's then Democrat Governor Roy Cooper established a so
called Task Force for Racial Equity and Criminal Justice. Sounds nice,
but it's not. That task force was co authored by
the then Attorney General and current Democrat Governor Josh Stein
(26:33):
and recommended quote reimagining public safety to promote diversion and
other alternatives to arrest. It also advised to deemphasize some
felony crimes, prioritize restorative justice, and elimited cash bail. Democrats
(26:55):
in North Carolina and nationwide are consumed with pushing awoke
soft on crime agenda, no matter how many minutes innocent
American suffer as a result. I'm sorry if they're seeing
that video and seeing what's going on here in La
you know what, I don't care. He had to send
in the National Guard, send in the Marines, he can
(27:16):
send in the army, he can declare martial law. Uh
and you hear what they ought to do is have
Ice round up all the city council members and Karen Bass.
They ought to round up the mayor in uh in
uh Charlotte and that city council and just take them
out of the country, go send them to that El
(27:38):
Salvador Superbacks prison and could spend their time with all
the violent gang member felons that they love. I mean,
this is this is this, This is overwhelmingly awful. This is
horrible and every day I mean if these who why
do people elect these a holes? Why their policies are awful?
(28:03):
They result in violence and death. They have failed now
for many years. Why why why do people do this?
Nobody ever used to vote people like this. We nobody
had these philosophies. Why would you, I'm telling you, look
(28:24):
up this guy and look at all the photos and
look at at at Irena Sarutska cowering in her seat
right before she was stabbed, repeatedly de Carlos Brown, I
(28:45):
don't understand. And then Mayor actually goes out there and says, well,
we have to have compassion for him, for him, for
his mental illness and his unhoused status. Really she said that, Really,
that's what she believes. And she's the mayor of Charlotte,
and we have that governing us here. Three quarters of
(29:08):
the city councils like that. I don't understand. All right,
Conways up next, and we have Michael Krozer live in
the CAFI twenty for our newsroom. 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
