Speaker 1 (00:00):
Seven two six six sixty eight sixty eight is the number. Okay,
we got russ on hold in Boston. We're gonna come
right back to him. Uh, just super quick, a very
quick reset. So Ed Malarkey. Senator Ed Markey now is
claiming in a series of posts on x that the
(00:21):
wildfires in California are a quote preview of coming atrocities
unquote under the Trump administration. That Trump is to blame
for the wildfires in southern California, and it's just a
taste of what's to come. It is now breaking. Listen
(00:42):
now to this that California Democrat Governor Moonbat Gavin Newsom
cut one hundred million dollars one hundred million in fire
prevention spending this year, all the water, allocating three billion
(01:02):
dollars on free healthcare, free illegals. So there you have it,
Gavin us some cuts one hundred million to prevent forest fires, wildfires,
fire prevention, but three billion had to be spent on
just free health care, free illegals. No, Hey, illegal immigration
(01:26):
isn't killing the United States.
Speaker 2 (01:28):
No, that's what.
Speaker 1 (01:30):
A sanctuary state does to you. Six one seven two
six six sixty eight sixty eight. I blame this on
the feet of Newsom, Bass and the entire Democratic leadership
in California. Agree disagree. Russ, you were on fire. You
were saying, imagine if the eco crazies, the environmentalists were
(01:55):
in charge in the nineteen thirties, we never would have
had the quab in reservue war here in Massachusetts. Please Russ,
pick up where you left off, Jeff.
Speaker 3 (02:06):
Without the qubin we would have major water shortges. Add
to that, we have pull land management in Massachusetts. Just
like California.
Speaker 4 (02:15):
We know better than they as far as land management
is concerned. If we had the winds that they have
in southern California, the Berkshires would be destroyed. And I'll
repeat that again, the Brookshars would be destroyed. And the
only luck we have in that area is the fact
that we don't have the winds that they have in
southern California.
Speaker 3 (02:33):
Jeff, I am so sick.
Speaker 5 (02:34):
And tired of the scumbag liberals, okay, and the ignorant
people that believe what comes out of their mouth. And
you know, never mind a nail in the confidence of
the Democratic Party, It's.
Speaker 3 (02:46):
Time to put a spike in it so it never
happens again.
Speaker 2 (02:51):
Russ.
Speaker 1 (02:52):
Do you think the public is that gullible? I have
to say it, that's stupid to believe that Trump is
to blame for the wildfires in California. I mean, are
the bills in Sudbury and the Franks and Gloucester. I mean,
we know they're really dumb, but are they that stupid?
Will this fly in Massachusetts? Will this fly around the country?
Speaker 3 (03:16):
Well, Jeff, let us not forget in California. In Massachusetts,
Kamala Harris.
Speaker 4 (03:24):
Would be the president on the twentieth of January if
they had their way.
Speaker 3 (03:28):
Do I need to say any more than that?
Speaker 1 (03:30):
That's a very good point. That's touche checkmate, Russ. Russ,
thank you very much for that call, as always, Keith
in New Hampshire. Thanks for holding Keith and welcome.
Speaker 6 (03:44):
And I have loved you in the morning, I've loved
you in the afternoon, and sometimes I even love you
at night.
Speaker 7 (03:53):
In an.
Speaker 6 (03:58):
I don't sorry for anybody in California. Not why nobody
mentioned the fact that you did not buy your house
and get a mortgage on it until you proved you
had insurance on your house. Right, you cannot get a
(04:21):
mortgage without insuring the.
Speaker 2 (04:23):
Structure, that's true.
Speaker 6 (04:24):
Yes, And when you pay up your house, are you
going to cancel the insurance? I don't think so. And
even if you do have that kind of money where
you can self insure, as they call it, you cannot
burn up ground. You still own the property and those
(04:47):
lots out there are worth a fortune. I don't feel
sorry for anybody out there. I'm sorry. And you know
why propaganda exists sooner because it works. What do you
think about that?
Speaker 1 (05:05):
No, it's an excellent point, Keith. You're on a roll,
my friend, Keith. I've got to ask you this. They're
trying now desperately. You can see that the media, Hollywood,
the Democratic Party New some marquee, but it's the whole
Democrat leadership now they're trying to blame and it is
(05:28):
a catastrophe. They're trying to blame this catastrophe in southern
California on quote unquote climate change, that it's the climate change,
the climate crisis that is causing these wildfires. Are people
again foolish and ignorant enough to believe it? Can they
(05:50):
see through it and realize No, it's colossal mismanagement and negligence.
It's bad policies that have led us to this, or
do you think are gonna fall for blaming this catch
all climate change?
Speaker 6 (06:06):
Well, I'll mention again the reason propaganda exists is because
it works. And this whole scam out there is being
run by the worldwide powers that are behind the Democratic Party.
People are just killing America and this is just another
(06:30):
step destroy the value, and they're gonna sweep the sources
of the world. They're gonna sweep in and buy all
that property cheap once everybody's gone that can't afford to
stay there.
Speaker 1 (06:46):
Keith, thank you for your call, and thank you for
your honesty. Six seven two six six sixty eight sixty
eight is the number. Okay, catastrophe in California. There's just
no other way to put it. Much of the southern
part of the state now is going up in smoke.
The wildfires continue to rage uncontrollably, and the damage now
(07:10):
is becoming almost apocalyptic. Satellite images now show that the
total number of square miles square acres that have now
been incinerated and burnt the ash is the size of
San Francisco, the size of a major city in California,
(07:34):
Beverly Hills, Malibu, Pacific Palisades, West Hollywood, Pasadena. I could
go on and on are now up in smoke. Entire communities, neighborhoods, businesses,
shopping malls, thousands and thousands of homes. As I said, schools,
(07:57):
structures of any and all kinds. Historic la is gone.
It is gone, and it just continues to rage on.
So listen now this Some of these texts now that
are coming in are absolutely phenomenal. This you can text
a seven zero four seven zero seven zero four seven zero.
(08:20):
This is from two one two Jeff, as to the
absurd link to the fraudulent climate change trope being peddled
by Ed Marky and Gavin Newsom. This year southern California
had one hundred and sixty percent and this is all
(08:42):
in caps above average rainfall. In other words, it didn't
get drier, it got infinitely wetter, and they still had
this catastrophe happen.
Speaker 2 (08:58):
Now.
Speaker 1 (08:58):
As for Karen Bass, this is from five oh eight
and absolutely super point to show you what a radical,
dangerous leftist she is. This is why, in some ways,
I hate to say it, but the voters of Los
Angeles have no one to blame but themselves. Really, because
this is the kind of lunatic that they put into power.
(09:22):
Five oh eight Jeff as to Karen Bass, the mayor
of La and her admiration of Fidel Castro. She was
a founding member of the ultra communist Vencemeros brigade and
visited Cuba a dozen plus times to celebrate Castro and
(09:44):
his communist revolution and to get training in Cuba in
how to bring that ideology here. Now Castro has run Cuba,
or he's passed away, but Castro ran Cuba and his
successors continue to run Cuba into the ground. Cuba is
(10:10):
the jewel of the Caribbean. I mean they could live, literally,
they could live on tourism alone. Havana is stunning. The
beach is the water, I mean it's it's it's like Bermuda,
like Bahamas. Just have a you know, half decent management
(10:32):
and government and just let the tourists flock in and
let the money roll.
Speaker 2 (10:37):
Baby.
Speaker 1 (10:39):
And instead they messed up that island like the Commi's
mess everything else up. Six one seven two, six, six
sixty eight sixty eight is the number. Okay, just very
very quick. I want to read an absolutely brilliant message
that I got from Lisa, And you know, as she
(11:02):
points out, Jeff, Arson is not climate change. And now
we know there was arson by illegal aliens who were
lighting up some of these wildfires. So since when did
arson become climate change? Or as Lisa puts it, La
(11:22):
County seventy two genders, zero operational fire hydrants. That's you know,
that's liberalism is a mental disorder, Jeff. So here is
what she writes, and everything that she says is one
thousand percent true.
Speaker 2 (11:40):
Now please just stand back and.
Speaker 1 (11:41):
Listen, because this is the insanity that has engulfed California,
and this is the essence now of democratic leadership, Jeff.
Several days before the fires, the National Weather Service the
LA Office didn't partakes, gave a specific warning of the
(12:04):
possibility of dangerous fires due to approaching weather events the
Santa Ana wins in severe form that were likely to
cause these massive wildfires. Mayor Karen Bass chose after those
warnings to go on her taxpayer funded trip to Ghana, Africa,
(12:27):
thereby leaving the city without a mayor during the commencement
of the fires. Now listen to this. It gets even worse.
The mayor lacked the deputy mayor. Well, why because one
week earlier, the deputy mayor was arrested for calling in
a false bomb threat to the city. So the deputy
(12:51):
that lunatic got arrested. Then Mayor Bass previously cut the
fire budget by nearly eighty dollars. Now listen to this,
thereby resulting in the laying off of mechanics skilled in
keeping fire equipment in use. Result, such equipment could not
(13:15):
be used to stem the fires. The cuts were made
to better finance aid to the homeless, a budget item
already receiving more than fifty percent funding than the fire department.
And then this story just broke over the weekend. Two
(13:35):
days before the fires broke out, Mayor Bas sent a
memo to the fire chief demanding an additional forty nine
million dollars in cuts that would have decimated what little
fire protection remained. The only thing that stopped this brilliant
(13:56):
goal was the outbreak of the fires themselves. And then
it's a long message, but basically, the reservoirs are all empty,
the fire hydrants are all empty.
Speaker 2 (14:10):
There's no water.
Speaker 1 (14:12):
And she goes on to say, Lisa says Jeff, and
remember this is happening in a city and a state
known for high taxes and dangerous weather conditions.
Speaker 8 (14:25):
So I e.
Speaker 2 (14:26):
Where is all the money gone? Where is it all gone?
Speaker 1 (14:33):
And the answer is obvious to the illegals.
Speaker 2 (14:41):
In Japan.
Speaker 1 (14:42):
She concludes with this, and I made that very same
point to Mike off Air in Japan. Such gross misconduct
and negligence usually results in resignations and sometimes suicide. Okay,
it's what the Japanese called herey care. I am not
(15:05):
advocating the latter step, but certainly the former, or at
least they recalled by the voters. They got to go,
every single one of them has to go, from Gavin
Newsom to Karen Bass to the fire chief, every single
one of them out out and don't let the door
(15:29):
hit you on the way out. Six one seven two
six six sixty eight sixty eight. Now you know what
a colossal mess, What a colossal disaster, and a man
made disaster, a Democrat disaster. These wildfires are all right.
(15:52):
The Kooner Country Poll Question of the Day sponsored by
sponsored by Mario's Mario's Quality Room, Thing Inciting and windows.
Do you believe that climate change plays any role or
has any responsibility for the wildfires in southern California. Ed
(16:14):
Markey came out saying it's climate change all the way,
and in fact Trump is to blame. Literally, Trump is
to blame. Agree, disagree. A yes, climate change does play a.
Speaker 2 (16:29):
Role or have some role.
Speaker 7 (16:31):
B no.
Speaker 1 (16:34):
As as you know, as I've been making the case,
this is a man made disaster, completely driven by poor, incompetent,
negligent democratic leadership.
Speaker 2 (16:53):
A yes, B no.
Speaker 1 (16:55):
I'm a bee all the way. Don't blame climate change,
blame the Democrats. You can vote on our web page
WRKO dot com slash cooner w RKO dot com slash cooner.
Kuh And is in national Er. You can also vote
via x my handle there at the Cooner report. All
(17:17):
one word kuh And is in national Er. Is climate
change to blame for California burning? And the Democrats now
say Marky Malarkey, Mark in Medford. Thanks for holding Mark,
and welcome.
Speaker 8 (17:39):
Good morning, Jeff.
Speaker 9 (17:40):
How are you on this lovely Monday?
Speaker 2 (17:42):
Very good.
Speaker 1 (17:43):
I'm just happy I'm not in southern California, Mark.
Speaker 6 (17:47):
Yeah, yeah, nothing.
Speaker 9 (17:48):
My cousin lives there, but he's about an hour away
from the fires. Right now, They're okay. But you know,
if I'm not mistaken, Jeff. I think a couple of
days ago, officials already care Mountain said that this was
no way caused by the climate hoax, I mean climate change?
Speaker 8 (18:06):
Am I right? Am I right?
Speaker 6 (18:07):
Or my wrong?
Speaker 8 (18:08):
By saying that because they said that on Fox News
that they already said this was not caused by climate change.
It was either an accident or deliberately set. Now, with
that being said, as far as Ed Markey goes, except
for Chief full of Bull Elizabeth Warren, Ed Markey could
(18:28):
be the dumbest Massachusetts politician I've ever seen in my life.
And I'm gonna be totally honest with you, Jeff. Before
Trump beat Hillary in twenty and sixteen, did you ever
hear a peep out of Ed Markey's I'm gonna be
honest with you, Jeff, I didn't even know he was
still in office until Trump became president at sixteen.
Speaker 1 (18:53):
You're right, he was completely inconsequential. Have never heard of him,
You never heard of him, You never heard from him.
They're running joke. I just remember it because you know,
I mean, one of the things everybody kept telling me.
This was years ago when I first came to Boston.
They go the guy is technically represents Malden. But he's
(19:15):
never here. I go, what do you mean he's never here? No,
he's never here. He's in Washington, d C. He just
lives in DC. It's got a mansion in DC in
was it Bethesda I think, And in one of these
one of these is swanky suburbs, wealthy suburbs outside of
d C. And so they go, No, he never comes back.
(19:35):
And there are pictures of his mailbox at his house overflowing,
like the mails on the porch. It's just overflowing because
he's never there to pick up a part of me. Oh, Kenwood, okay, anyway,
that's sort of area in Washington, Yeah, around Bethesda. So
but the point is, I mean, he never comes back
(19:57):
to Malden ever. And these moonbats they just can't they
they keep just re electing the guy. Can't they at
least demand that if you're gonna rep I know he's
a senator now, but then he was a member of Congress.
If you're gonna be a member of Congress, I don't know,
at least come back to your district a few times
a year. I don't know, to see what's happening, see
(20:21):
what's going on on the ground, talk to constituents, find
out what they need. Mark, I've I told Massachusetts in California,
I have never seen two such grossly mismanaged states. And
the voters are all the same. Have you noticed, Mark, smug, arrogant,
(20:47):
self righteous, stupid liberals ignorant but arrogant and self righteous.
And you could put Mickey Mouse on the ballot if
it has d beside it, they will pull that lever.
I've never seen such mindless zombies in my life?
Speaker 2 (21:07):
Mark? Am I wrong?
Speaker 6 (21:10):
Jeff?
Speaker 8 (21:10):
To add to that, know, like you said, you can
put Mickey Mouse's nothing will ever change these people's minds.
And then let me ask you this question, Jeff, will
will these will these move back whack jobs? Will they
wait till before or after Trump's inauguration to indict them?
Facin comming? I see it coming at this point, Jeff,
(21:39):
it's went in doubt. Blame Donald Trump. Uh, let me see,
for the last four years has Donald Trump been in office?
Has Donald now you want now you want to accuse
him of arson? Jeff, We've lived on this planet, you
and I for fifty five years with the same age. Okay,
as far as I can remember, I've never heard of
(22:02):
a wild fire being spotted from drilling for oil on
natural gas. This is a bunch of bolt craps. Enough
is enough with the hoaxes.
Speaker 2 (22:14):
Mark, as always, you hit the nail right on the head.
Thank you for that call. Mark.
Speaker 1 (22:20):
Six one seven two six six sixty eight sixty eight. No,
he's been in court the last four years. He hasn't
had time to start a wildfire. Six one seven two
six six sixty eight sixty eight.
Speaker 2 (22:35):
But I'm telling you this all. Does this play well
here with the moonbats?
Speaker 8 (22:39):
All?
Speaker 1 (22:41):
Yeah, it's Trump's fault. Yeah, go Ed, That's why we
elect you. Add the ice cream guy. Yeah, The last
honest job this guy ever had was when he was
a teenager riding riding around in that ice cream truck.
Speaker 2 (23:01):
Two six six sixty eight sixty eight.
Speaker 1 (23:05):
Marilyn in Norwood. Thanks for holding, Marilyn, and welcome.
Speaker 10 (23:13):
I have a suggestion for you which I think would
be of immense interest to your entire audience, which is
probably global by now. I know there's people from other
states that also actively listen and call in. So Rick Caruso,
the former Democratic mayoral candidate, I learned in addition to
(23:34):
being a businessman and a former real estate lawyer. He
was also a member of Los Angeles' Board of Water
and Power Commission. So my suggestion to you is for
your staff to try to reach out to him and
to allocate a good fifteen or twenty minutes of time
if you can, and speak with him about this issue,
(23:56):
because he probably has a very thorough historical perspective about
a lot of information that is still not being shared
by the press, or is not known to the press,
or is not being investigated by the press. That's one suggestion.
I have one more suggestion. This was an incidental signed
(24:16):
I happened to the other day google University of California
about the wildfires, and back in twenty twenty two, around
April sixth, twenty twenty two, there is an interesting I
have it here at my computer to bear with me
one second. I hope I can pull it up. There's
an interesting paper that was published or announcement that was published,
(24:40):
and basically they were saying, and they were, you know,
paying tribute to a Native American people that you basically
have to you know, burn the growth on the forest floor.
So the title of this paper from April six, twenty
twenty two. You know this information announcement is how the
(25:02):
indigenous practice of good fire can help our forest thrive.
And this is from the University of California. So in Google,
if you University of California how the indigenous practice of
good fire, that should pull up the paper so you know.
So this is obviously very well known for probably thousands
(25:25):
of years that this needs to be done, this type
of clearing needs to be done. So I'm going to
hang up now and listen to your response. Thank you, Marilyn.
Speaker 1 (25:31):
As always, thank you very much, very thoughtful call. Your
calls are always very thoughtful. We're definitely Sandy, I think
is going to go try to get near Rick Caruso
for us right after the show. I think it's a
great suggestion he's got. I'd love to do a fifteen
minute interview with him. He was the former mayoral challenger
to Karen Bass, and he warned the people of Los Angeles,
(25:54):
you're getting Fidel Castro and basically in souit pants, that's
what you're going to get with Karen Bass. A black female,
a Castro, that's what you're gonna get with Karen Bass.
And man is he been proved prophetic. Now you're gonna say, Jeff,
come on, come on, nobody can be that colossally inept
(26:19):
and incompetent. I want to read you the quote.
Speaker 7 (26:25):
Now.
Speaker 1 (26:25):
Remember this is the chief of the Los Angeles Fire Department. Okay,
this is the top person that oversees the entire fire
department of Los Angeles. And remember why was she chosen?
And again I've said this a million times. I don't
care if your white, black, brown, Asian, male, female, gay, straight,
(26:48):
old young, I don't care. I really, I just want
the best, most talented person for the job.
Speaker 2 (26:55):
I don't care. I don't care.
Speaker 1 (26:57):
Just stop wildfires and if my house is burning, make
sure there's enough water in the hose or in the
hydrants to dowse and take out the fire.
Speaker 2 (27:09):
That's what I want, Okay.
Speaker 1 (27:12):
But they hired her, and they celebrated her, Kristin Crowley,
because she's a lesbian, because she's a member, as they
put it, of the lgbtqia plus community. So they said,
oh my god, the first lesbian police chief of LA. Yeah,
(27:34):
and they were bragging because she checks all the boxes,
especially on the lesbian the LGBTQ front. Then she came
out and I was said, this was her on the website.
Our number one priority at the LAFD is diversity Equity
(27:55):
Inclusion d EI, which, as I said last week, equals
die die.
Speaker 2 (28:03):
That's what it.
Speaker 1 (28:04):
That's what you really get. This is the fire chief
of La Quote. Here's this is a quote for the ages.
She's asked, why why is there no water in the
fire hydrants? Quote, I don't know how water gets to
(28:27):
the hydrants unquote. Let me repeat that, I don't know
how water gets to the hydrants. Unquote. You don't know.
You're the fire chief of Los Angeles? What is it
now for the last three years? You don't know how
(28:51):
water gets into the fire hydrants? How the hell did
you ever become the fire chief? And then she was
asked about all of these reservoirs that have no water.
They're empty, they're bone dry, and in particular the one
that's very close by the Santa I hope I'm pronouncing
this correctly. It's why and easy, So I guess Santa
(29:15):
Whines is how I pronounce it anyway, that the Santa
Whines reservoir has no water. It has no water. And
not only does it have no water, it has been
empty for fifteen years. For fifteen years, it's been empty.
(29:37):
Nobody thought, hey, there's a really big wildfire, maybe we
should fill up the reservoir. Hello, forget about the Delta smelt.
And by the way, if you've ever seen the smelt,
and Mike looked it up online, he said, Jeff, I
thought this was like some kind of a big fish.
(29:58):
You know, I don't like pike or or you know,
other fish bass or like, you know, a fish you
can eat. He goes, Jeff, It's the size of a sardine.
It's a tiny little fish.
Speaker 8 (30:10):
Yes, that's what.
Speaker 1 (30:12):
That's why they were diverting, flushing billions and billions of
gallons of fresh water into the ocean.
Speaker 2 (30:20):
To save this.
Speaker 1 (30:21):
This this stupid little tiny species of fish the size
of a sardine.
Speaker 2 (30:29):
You can't it's insanity.
Speaker 1 (30:31):
You can't make it up again, symptoms of a society
gone mad.
Speaker 2 (30:37):
A local a local.
Speaker 1 (30:41):
So your main reservoir or one of your main reservoirs
has been empty for fifteen years because of poor management.
You're the fire chief. You're like, well, you know the
reservoirs empty too. I didn't know that. You don't know
that one of your biggest reservoirs is empty. It's been
empty for fifteen years. I didn't know the fire hydrants
(31:05):
are dry. Why is the water not getting into the
fire hydrants. I don't know how water gets into the hydrants.
What and you're the fire chief. Everything liberals touch, it
turns to garbage. Remember that you know Midas commercial I
(31:28):
remember growing up. You know Midas, the Midas touch. They
have the reverse Midas touch. Everything they touch turns to garbage.
Six one seven two six six sixty eight sixty eight
John on the Cape in Cape cod Thanks for holding John, and.
Speaker 7 (31:46):
Welcome Mark Hawhi, your first time I call a a
very long time listener.
Speaker 2 (31:52):
Welcome, Welcome Mark.
Speaker 7 (31:54):
I listen to you every morning, and all I can
say is the frustration from millions of us accountability. I
hear you say it all the time, and I hope
whether you, Steve Benn and mak Levin, anyone can tell
the Trump administration if you want to keep everybody for
the next four years, we want to see some accountability.
(32:16):
Some people mock have to go to jail. They can't
lie to Congress. We can't spend millions and billions of
dollars on a bunch of bs as you always say,
and have no accountability. You can't lie every day to
the public. Allah, what's going on in California right now
with the fires. Trump's got to have someone drop the hammer.
(32:38):
And if you want the lying and the bull craft
to stop, there's got to be accountability. People have to
be held accountable, both bodies, whether it's Swallwell, Shumer, shifty shifts.
I hear you say it all the time. But are
the Trump people listening and are they going to do
what they need to do to get the people in
(32:59):
America realize that if we break the law or lie,
we go to jail, that these other people have to also.
Speaker 2 (33:06):
Amen.
Speaker 1 (33:08):
Amen, drop the mic, John, thank you very much for
that call. Look that you said it accountability. No one's
held accountable anymore. I mean, I am you are. Ordinary
Americans are always held accountable. In fact, honestly, I think
we're held to insane standards. One little false move, one
little false word, one little really any they pounce all
(33:30):
over us. But if you're part of the political media
class the swamp, they get away with.
Speaker 2 (33:39):
Crime after crime after crime.
Speaker 1 (33:42):
Gross incompetence, gross negligence. Now let me if it's any comfort, Okay,
and it's small comfort. But if it's any comfort, Gavin
Newsom's national political aspirations are finished. He can spend this
and blame Trump. I have the cots. He went on
NBC's Meet the Mess. He made a fool of himself
(34:05):
trying to blame again. He's also trying to blame Trump
for what's happening in California. And everybody can see that
this is a Democrat disaster. And I think the public's
discussed even in California. A lot of people now finally
are waking up. These people they would screw up a
(34:26):
one car funeral, and they can't spin their way out
of this one. They just can't. And there's something Look
just again, objectively, we're not talking now the debates. We
used to have more taxes, less taxes, a little more spending,
a little less spending, you know whatever.
Speaker 2 (34:47):
Should we go to war, should we not.
Speaker 1 (34:49):
Go to war? Are you pro life or are you
pro choice? We're not talking about that, Like, just forget that,
that's long gone. Now we're talking about the Delta smelt.
Speaker 2 (35:04):
You're like, what, yes, this.
Speaker 1 (35:07):
Little tiny species the smelt, These little fishes, you know,
a little tiny species of fish. You're like, Okay, well, no,
we can't have the reservoirs high.
Speaker 2 (35:14):
Why not. It's bad for the smelt. So we have
to keep.
Speaker 1 (35:18):
Reservoirs very very very low to save the smelt. So
all of this fresh water, millions and millions of gallons,
we're just gonna dump it into the ocean. And you're like,
but but what about the wildfires? What about southern California?
It's a desert. Did they need water? Well, I don't
(35:41):
tell you that. The smelt come before people like this
is now what we're talking about. We're talking firefighters are
going into people's swimming pools to get water to fight
these blazes, swimming pools because there's no water in the
(36:02):
fire hydrants. This is what I This is no longer
more taxes, less taxes, more spending, less spending. This is
we're talking about insanity. We're talking about a level of
incompetence that is staggering that it's almost incredible to behold. Now,
(36:28):
I want you to just and I'm not the only
one that's made this point, but it's it. Look, I
want you to stand back objectively. Okay, look at California.
It's right beside an ocean. It's right beside an ocean
northern California. Do you know how much snow in Northern California
gets and melting snow do you have to get tons
(36:50):
of rain every year? Northern California. California is surrounded by water,
flooded with water. So I want you to think about this.
The wealthiest country in the world, the wealthiest state, in
the wealthiest country, in the wealthiest county. That's Los Angeles County.
(37:16):
That's Hollywood, that's Malibu, that's Beverly Hills, that's Pacific Palisades.
These are homes at five, seven, eight, ten, twenty million
dollar homes. The wealthiest county, in the wealthiest state, in
the wealthiest country has no water.
Speaker 2 (37:44):
That's really.
Speaker 1 (37:45):
That's like saying Saudi Arabia has no sand the Sahara Desert. Well,
there's no sand. What yeah, Gavin Youwson. We made him
the l presidente, the president of out Arabia, and with
Karen Bass as his mayor and the mayor of Riad.
Speaker 2 (38:04):
And there's no sand.
Speaker 1 (38:07):
Can you imagine if we left them in charge of
the Arctic, there be no ice, no really, no snow.
But what do you mean, it's it's it's it's it's
all ice and snow. They got rid of it. They
just diveverted the whole damn thing. He's never gonna recover
from this.
Speaker 6 (38:25):
Now.
Speaker 1 (38:25):
They may re elect him as governor, that I don't know,
but nationally, Gavin Newsom is finished and Karen bass I
don't think politically can survive this.
Speaker 2 (38:38):
I mean the way, every
Speaker 1 (38:39):
The way now, even people underneath her are just blasting
her and blasting her and blasting her
Seven two six six sixty eight sixty eight is the number. Okay,
we got russ on hold in Boston. We're gonna come
right back to him. Uh, just super quick, a very
quick reset. So Ed Malarkey. Senator Ed Markey now is
claiming in a series of posts on x that the
(00:21):
wildfires in California are a quote preview of coming atrocities
unquote under the Trump administration. That Trump is to blame
for the wildfires in southern California, and it's just a
taste of what's to come. It is now breaking. Listen
(00:42):
now to this that California Democrat Governor Moonbat Gavin Newsom
cut one hundred million dollars one hundred million in fire
prevention spending this year, all the water, allocating three billion
(01:02):
dollars on free healthcare, free illegals. So there you have it,
Gavin us some cuts one hundred million to prevent forest fires, wildfires,
fire prevention, but three billion had to be spent on
just free health care, free illegals. No, Hey, illegal immigration
(01:26):
isn't killing the United States.
Speaker 2 (01:28):
No, that's what.
Speaker 1 (01:30):
A sanctuary state does to you. Six one seven two
six six sixty eight sixty eight. I blame this on
the feet of Newsom, Bass and the entire Democratic leadership
in California. Agree disagree. Russ, you were on fire. You
were saying, imagine if the eco crazies, the environmentalists were
(01:55):
in charge in the nineteen thirties, we never would have
had the quab in reservue war here in Massachusetts. Please Russ,
pick up where you left off, Jeff.
Speaker 3 (02:06):
Without the qubin we would have major water shortges. Add
to that, we have pull land management in Massachusetts. Just
like California.
Speaker 4 (02:15):
We know better than they as far as land management
is concerned. If we had the winds that they have
in southern California, the Berkshires would be destroyed. And I'll
repeat that again, the Brookshars would be destroyed. And the
only luck we have in that area is the fact
that we don't have the winds that they have in
southern California.
Speaker 3 (02:33):
Jeff, I am so sick.
Speaker 5 (02:34):
And tired of the scumbag liberals, okay, and the ignorant
people that believe what comes out of their mouth. And
you know, never mind a nail in the confidence of
the Democratic Party, It's.
Speaker 3 (02:46):
Time to put a spike in it so it never
happens again.
Speaker 2 (02:51):
Russ.
Speaker 1 (02:52):
Do you think the public is that gullible? I have
to say it, that's stupid to believe that Trump is
to blame for the wildfires in California. I mean, are
the bills in Sudbury and the Franks and Gloucester. I mean,
we know they're really dumb, but are they that stupid?
Will this fly in Massachusetts? Will this fly around the country?
Speaker 3 (03:16):
Well, Jeff, let us not forget in California. In Massachusetts,
Kamala Harris.
Speaker 4 (03:24):
Would be the president on the twentieth of January if
they had their way.
Speaker 3 (03:28):
Do I need to say any more than that?
Speaker 1 (03:30):
That's a very good point. That's touche checkmate, Russ. Russ,
thank you very much for that call, as always, Keith
in New Hampshire. Thanks for holding Keith and welcome.
Speaker 6 (03:44):
And I have loved you in the morning, I've loved
you in the afternoon, and sometimes I even love you
at night.
Speaker 7 (03:53):
In an.
Speaker 6 (03:58):
I don't sorry for anybody in California. Not why nobody
mentioned the fact that you did not buy your house
and get a mortgage on it until you proved you
had insurance on your house. Right, you cannot get a
(04:21):
mortgage without insuring the.
Speaker 2 (04:23):
Structure, that's true.
Speaker 6 (04:24):
Yes, And when you pay up your house, are you
going to cancel the insurance? I don't think so. And
even if you do have that kind of money where
you can self insure, as they call it, you cannot
burn up ground. You still own the property and those
(04:47):
lots out there are worth a fortune. I don't feel
sorry for anybody out there. I'm sorry. And you know
why propaganda exists sooner because it works. What do you
think about that?
Speaker 1 (05:05):
No, it's an excellent point, Keith. You're on a roll,
my friend, Keith. I've got to ask you this. They're
trying now desperately. You can see that the media, Hollywood,
the Democratic Party New some marquee, but it's the whole
Democrat leadership now they're trying to blame and it is
(05:28):
a catastrophe. They're trying to blame this catastrophe in southern
California on quote unquote climate change, that it's the climate change,
the climate crisis that is causing these wildfires. Are people
again foolish and ignorant enough to believe it? Can they
(05:50):
see through it and realize No, it's colossal mismanagement and negligence.
It's bad policies that have led us to this, or
do you think are gonna fall for blaming this catch
all climate change?
Speaker 6 (06:06):
Well, I'll mention again the reason propaganda exists is because
it works. And this whole scam out there is being
run by the worldwide powers that are behind the Democratic Party.
People are just killing America and this is just another
(06:30):
step destroy the value, and they're gonna sweep the sources
of the world. They're gonna sweep in and buy all
that property cheap once everybody's gone that can't afford to
stay there.
Speaker 1 (06:46):
Keith, thank you for your call, and thank you for
your honesty. Six seven two six six sixty eight sixty
eight is the number. Okay, catastrophe in California. There's just
no other way to put it. Much of the southern
part of the state now is going up in smoke.
The wildfires continue to rage uncontrollably, and the damage now
(07:10):
is becoming almost apocalyptic. Satellite images now show that the
total number of square miles square acres that have now
been incinerated and burnt the ash is the size of
San Francisco, the size of a major city in California,
(07:34):
Beverly Hills, Malibu, Pacific Palisades, West Hollywood, Pasadena. I could
go on and on are now up in smoke. Entire communities, neighborhoods, businesses,
shopping malls, thousands and thousands of homes. As I said, schools,
(07:57):
structures of any and all kinds. Historic la is gone.
It is gone, and it just continues to rage on.
So listen now this Some of these texts now that
are coming in are absolutely phenomenal. This you can text
a seven zero four seven zero seven zero four seven zero.
(08:20):
This is from two one two Jeff, as to the
absurd link to the fraudulent climate change trope being peddled
by Ed Marky and Gavin Newsom. This year southern California
had one hundred and sixty percent and this is all
(08:42):
in caps above average rainfall. In other words, it didn't
get drier, it got infinitely wetter, and they still had
this catastrophe happen.
Speaker 2 (08:58):
Now.
Speaker 1 (08:58):
As for Karen Bass, this is from five oh eight
and absolutely super point to show you what a radical,
dangerous leftist she is. This is why, in some ways,
I hate to say it, but the voters of Los
Angeles have no one to blame but themselves. Really, because
this is the kind of lunatic that they put into power.
(09:22):
Five oh eight Jeff as to Karen Bass, the mayor
of La and her admiration of Fidel Castro. She was
a founding member of the ultra communist Vencemeros brigade and
visited Cuba a dozen plus times to celebrate Castro and
(09:44):
his communist revolution and to get training in Cuba in
how to bring that ideology here. Now Castro has run Cuba,
or he's passed away, but Castro ran Cuba and his
successors continue to run Cuba into the ground. Cuba is
(10:10):
the jewel of the Caribbean. I mean they could live, literally,
they could live on tourism alone. Havana is stunning. The
beach is the water, I mean it's it's it's like Bermuda,
like Bahamas. Just have a you know, half decent management
(10:32):
and government and just let the tourists flock in and
let the money roll.
Speaker 2 (10:37):
Baby.
Speaker 1 (10:39):
And instead they messed up that island like the Commi's
mess everything else up. Six one seven two, six, six
sixty eight sixty eight is the number. Okay, just very
very quick. I want to read an absolutely brilliant message
that I got from Lisa, And you know, as she
(11:02):
points out, Jeff, Arson is not climate change. And now
we know there was arson by illegal aliens who were
lighting up some of these wildfires. So since when did
arson become climate change? Or as Lisa puts it, La
(11:22):
County seventy two genders, zero operational fire hydrants. That's you know,
that's liberalism is a mental disorder, Jeff. So here is
what she writes, and everything that she says is one
thousand percent true.
Speaker 2 (11:40):
Now please just stand back and.
Speaker 1 (11:41):
Listen, because this is the insanity that has engulfed California,
and this is the essence now of democratic leadership, Jeff.
Several days before the fires, the National Weather Service the
LA Office didn't partakes, gave a specific warning of the
(12:04):
possibility of dangerous fires due to approaching weather events the
Santa Ana wins in severe form that were likely to
cause these massive wildfires. Mayor Karen Bass chose after those
warnings to go on her taxpayer funded trip to Ghana, Africa,
(12:27):
thereby leaving the city without a mayor during the commencement
of the fires. Now listen to this. It gets even worse.
The mayor lacked the deputy mayor. Well, why because one
week earlier, the deputy mayor was arrested for calling in
a false bomb threat to the city. So the deputy
(12:51):
that lunatic got arrested. Then Mayor Bass previously cut the
fire budget by nearly eighty dollars. Now listen to this,
thereby resulting in the laying off of mechanics skilled in
keeping fire equipment in use. Result, such equipment could not
(13:15):
be used to stem the fires. The cuts were made
to better finance aid to the homeless, a budget item
already receiving more than fifty percent funding than the fire department.
And then this story just broke over the weekend. Two
(13:35):
days before the fires broke out, Mayor Bas sent a
memo to the fire chief demanding an additional forty nine
million dollars in cuts that would have decimated what little
fire protection remained. The only thing that stopped this brilliant
(13:56):
goal was the outbreak of the fires themselves. And then
it's a long message, but basically, the reservoirs are all empty,
the fire hydrants are all empty.
Speaker 2 (14:10):
There's no water.
Speaker 1 (14:12):
And she goes on to say, Lisa says Jeff, and
remember this is happening in a city and a state
known for high taxes and dangerous weather conditions.
Speaker 8 (14:25):
So I e.
Speaker 2 (14:26):
Where is all the money gone? Where is it all gone?
Speaker 1 (14:33):
And the answer is obvious to the illegals.
Speaker 2 (14:41):
In Japan.
Speaker 1 (14:42):
She concludes with this, and I made that very same
point to Mike off Air in Japan. Such gross misconduct
and negligence usually results in resignations and sometimes suicide. Okay,
it's what the Japanese called herey care. I am not
(15:05):
advocating the latter step, but certainly the former, or at
least they recalled by the voters. They got to go,
every single one of them has to go, from Gavin
Newsom to Karen Bass to the fire chief, every single
one of them out out and don't let the door
(15:29):
hit you on the way out. Six one seven two
six six sixty eight sixty eight. Now you know what
a colossal mess, What a colossal disaster, and a man
made disaster, a Democrat disaster. These wildfires are all right.
(15:52):
The Kooner Country Poll Question of the Day sponsored by
sponsored by Mario's Mario's Quality Room, Thing Inciting and windows.
Do you believe that climate change plays any role or
has any responsibility for the wildfires in southern California. Ed
(16:14):
Markey came out saying it's climate change all the way,
and in fact Trump is to blame. Literally, Trump is
to blame. Agree, disagree. A yes, climate change does play a.
Speaker 2 (16:29):
Role or have some role.
Speaker 7 (16:31):
B no.
Speaker 1 (16:34):
As as you know, as I've been making the case,
this is a man made disaster, completely driven by poor, incompetent,
negligent democratic leadership.
Speaker 2 (16:53):
A yes, B no.
Speaker 1 (16:55):
I'm a bee all the way. Don't blame climate change,
blame the Democrats. You can vote on our web page
WRKO dot com slash cooner w RKO dot com slash cooner.
Kuh And is in national Er. You can also vote
via x my handle there at the Cooner report. All
(17:17):
one word kuh And is in national Er. Is climate
change to blame for California burning? And the Democrats now
say Marky Malarkey, Mark in Medford. Thanks for holding Mark,
and welcome.
Speaker 8 (17:39):
Good morning, Jeff.
Speaker 9 (17:40):
How are you on this lovely Monday?
Speaker 2 (17:42):
Very good.
Speaker 1 (17:43):
I'm just happy I'm not in southern California, Mark.
Speaker 6 (17:47):
Yeah, yeah, nothing.
Speaker 9 (17:48):
My cousin lives there, but he's about an hour away
from the fires. Right now, They're okay. But you know,
if I'm not mistaken, Jeff. I think a couple of
days ago, officials already care Mountain said that this was
no way caused by the climate hoax, I mean climate change?
Speaker 8 (18:06):
Am I right? Am I right?
Speaker 6 (18:07):
Or my wrong?
Speaker 8 (18:08):
By saying that because they said that on Fox News
that they already said this was not caused by climate change.
It was either an accident or deliberately set. Now, with
that being said, as far as Ed Markey goes, except
for Chief full of Bull Elizabeth Warren, Ed Markey could
(18:28):
be the dumbest Massachusetts politician I've ever seen in my life.
And I'm gonna be totally honest with you, Jeff. Before
Trump beat Hillary in twenty and sixteen, did you ever
hear a peep out of Ed Markey's I'm gonna be
honest with you, Jeff, I didn't even know he was
still in office until Trump became president at sixteen.
Speaker 1 (18:53):
You're right, he was completely inconsequential. Have never heard of him,
You never heard of him, You never heard from him.
They're running joke. I just remember it because you know,
I mean, one of the things everybody kept telling me.
This was years ago when I first came to Boston.
They go the guy is technically represents Malden. But he's
(19:15):
never here. I go, what do you mean he's never here? No,
he's never here. He's in Washington, d C. He just
lives in DC. It's got a mansion in DC in
was it Bethesda I think, And in one of these
one of these is swanky suburbs, wealthy suburbs outside of
d C. And so they go, No, he never comes back.
(19:35):
And there are pictures of his mailbox at his house overflowing,
like the mails on the porch. It's just overflowing because
he's never there to pick up a part of me. Oh, Kenwood, okay, anyway,
that's sort of area in Washington, Yeah, around Bethesda. So
but the point is, I mean, he never comes back
(19:57):
to Malden ever. And these moonbats they just can't they
they keep just re electing the guy. Can't they at
least demand that if you're gonna rep I know he's
a senator now, but then he was a member of Congress.
If you're gonna be a member of Congress, I don't know,
at least come back to your district a few times
a year. I don't know, to see what's happening, see
(20:21):
what's going on on the ground, talk to constituents, find
out what they need. Mark, I've I told Massachusetts in California,
I have never seen two such grossly mismanaged states. And
the voters are all the same. Have you noticed, Mark, smug, arrogant,
(20:47):
self righteous, stupid liberals ignorant but arrogant and self righteous.
And you could put Mickey Mouse on the ballot if
it has d beside it, they will pull that lever.
I've never seen such mindless zombies in my life?
Speaker 2 (21:07):
Mark? Am I wrong?
Speaker 6 (21:10):
Jeff?
Speaker 8 (21:10):
To add to that, know, like you said, you can
put Mickey Mouse's nothing will ever change these people's minds.
And then let me ask you this question, Jeff, will
will these will these move back whack jobs? Will they
wait till before or after Trump's inauguration to indict them?
Facin comming? I see it coming at this point, Jeff,
(21:39):
it's went in doubt. Blame Donald Trump. Uh, let me see,
for the last four years has Donald Trump been in office?
Has Donald now you want now you want to accuse
him of arson? Jeff, We've lived on this planet, you
and I for fifty five years with the same age. Okay,
as far as I can remember, I've never heard of
(22:02):
a wild fire being spotted from drilling for oil on
natural gas. This is a bunch of bolt craps. Enough
is enough with the hoaxes.
Speaker 2 (22:14):
Mark, as always, you hit the nail right on the head.
Thank you for that call. Mark.
Speaker 1 (22:20):
Six one seven two six six sixty eight sixty eight. No,
he's been in court the last four years. He hasn't
had time to start a wildfire. Six one seven two
six six sixty eight sixty eight.
Speaker 2 (22:35):
But I'm telling you this all. Does this play well
here with the moonbats?
Speaker 8 (22:39):
All?
Speaker 1 (22:41):
Yeah, it's Trump's fault. Yeah, go Ed, That's why we
elect you. Add the ice cream guy. Yeah, The last
honest job this guy ever had was when he was
a teenager riding riding around in that ice cream truck.
Speaker 2 (23:01):
Two six six sixty eight sixty eight.
Speaker 1 (23:05):
Marilyn in Norwood. Thanks for holding, Marilyn, and welcome.
Speaker 10 (23:13):
I have a suggestion for you which I think would
be of immense interest to your entire audience, which is
probably global by now. I know there's people from other
states that also actively listen and call in. So Rick Caruso,
the former Democratic mayoral candidate, I learned in addition to
(23:34):
being a businessman and a former real estate lawyer. He
was also a member of Los Angeles' Board of Water
and Power Commission. So my suggestion to you is for
your staff to try to reach out to him and
to allocate a good fifteen or twenty minutes of time
if you can, and speak with him about this issue,
(23:56):
because he probably has a very thorough historical perspective about
a lot of information that is still not being shared
by the press, or is not known to the press,
or is not being investigated by the press. That's one suggestion.
I have one more suggestion. This was an incidental signed
(24:16):
I happened to the other day google University of California
about the wildfires, and back in twenty twenty two, around
April sixth, twenty twenty two, there is an interesting I
have it here at my computer to bear with me
one second. I hope I can pull it up. There's
an interesting paper that was published or announcement that was published,
(24:40):
and basically they were saying, and they were, you know,
paying tribute to a Native American people that you basically
have to you know, burn the growth on the forest floor.
So the title of this paper from April six, twenty
twenty two. You know this information announcement is how the
(25:02):
indigenous practice of good fire can help our forest thrive.
And this is from the University of California. So in Google,
if you University of California how the indigenous practice of
good fire, that should pull up the paper so you know.
So this is obviously very well known for probably thousands
(25:25):
of years that this needs to be done, this type
of clearing needs to be done. So I'm going to
hang up now and listen to your response. Thank you, Marilyn.
Speaker 1 (25:31):
As always, thank you very much, very thoughtful call. Your
calls are always very thoughtful. We're definitely Sandy, I think
is going to go try to get near Rick Caruso
for us right after the show. I think it's a
great suggestion he's got. I'd love to do a fifteen
minute interview with him. He was the former mayoral challenger
to Karen Bass, and he warned the people of Los Angeles,
(25:54):
you're getting Fidel Castro and basically in souit pants, that's
what you're going to get with Karen Bass. A black female,
a Castro, that's what you're gonna get with Karen Bass.
And man is he been proved prophetic. Now you're gonna say, Jeff,
come on, come on, nobody can be that colossally inept
(26:19):
and incompetent. I want to read you the quote.
Speaker 7 (26:25):
Now.
Speaker 1 (26:25):
Remember this is the chief of the Los Angeles Fire Department. Okay,
this is the top person that oversees the entire fire
department of Los Angeles. And remember why was she chosen?
And again I've said this a million times. I don't
care if your white, black, brown, Asian, male, female, gay, straight,
(26:48):
old young, I don't care. I really, I just want
the best, most talented person for the job.
Speaker 2 (26:55):
I don't care. I don't care.
Speaker 1 (26:57):
Just stop wildfires and if my house is burning, make
sure there's enough water in the hose or in the
hydrants to dowse and take out the fire.
Speaker 2 (27:09):
That's what I want, Okay.
Speaker 1 (27:12):
But they hired her, and they celebrated her, Kristin Crowley,
because she's a lesbian, because she's a member, as they
put it, of the lgbtqia plus community. So they said,
oh my god, the first lesbian police chief of LA. Yeah,
(27:34):
and they were bragging because she checks all the boxes,
especially on the lesbian the LGBTQ front. Then she came
out and I was said, this was her on the website.
Our number one priority at the LAFD is diversity Equity
(27:55):
Inclusion d EI, which, as I said last week, equals
die die.
Speaker 2 (28:03):
That's what it.
Speaker 1 (28:04):
That's what you really get. This is the fire chief
of La Quote. Here's this is a quote for the ages.
She's asked, why why is there no water in the
fire hydrants? Quote, I don't know how water gets to
(28:27):
the hydrants unquote. Let me repeat that, I don't know
how water gets to the hydrants. Unquote. You don't know.
You're the fire chief of Los Angeles? What is it
now for the last three years? You don't know how
(28:51):
water gets into the fire hydrants? How the hell did
you ever become the fire chief? And then she was
asked about all of these reservoirs that have no water.
They're empty, they're bone dry, and in particular the one
that's very close by the Santa I hope I'm pronouncing
this correctly. It's why and easy, So I guess Santa
(29:15):
Whines is how I pronounce it anyway, that the Santa
Whines reservoir has no water. It has no water. And
not only does it have no water, it has been
empty for fifteen years. For fifteen years, it's been empty.
(29:37):
Nobody thought, hey, there's a really big wildfire, maybe we
should fill up the reservoir. Hello, forget about the Delta smelt.
And by the way, if you've ever seen the smelt,
and Mike looked it up online, he said, Jeff, I
thought this was like some kind of a big fish.
(29:58):
You know, I don't like pike or or you know,
other fish bass or like, you know, a fish you
can eat. He goes, Jeff, It's the size of a sardine.
It's a tiny little fish.
Speaker 8 (30:10):
Yes, that's what.
Speaker 1 (30:12):
That's why they were diverting, flushing billions and billions of
gallons of fresh water into the ocean.
Speaker 2 (30:20):
To save this.
Speaker 1 (30:21):
This this stupid little tiny species of fish the size
of a sardine.
Speaker 2 (30:29):
You can't it's insanity.
Speaker 1 (30:31):
You can't make it up again, symptoms of a society
gone mad.
Speaker 2 (30:37):
A local a local.
Speaker 1 (30:41):
So your main reservoir or one of your main reservoirs
has been empty for fifteen years because of poor management.
You're the fire chief. You're like, well, you know the
reservoirs empty too. I didn't know that. You don't know
that one of your biggest reservoirs is empty. It's been
empty for fifteen years. I didn't know the fire hydrants
(31:05):
are dry. Why is the water not getting into the
fire hydrants. I don't know how water gets into the hydrants.
What and you're the fire chief. Everything liberals touch, it
turns to garbage. Remember that you know Midas commercial I
(31:28):
remember growing up. You know Midas, the Midas touch. They
have the reverse Midas touch. Everything they touch turns to garbage.

John on the Cape in Cape cod Thanks for holding John, and.
Speaker 7 (31:46):
Welcome Mark Hawhi, your first time I call a a
very long time listener.
Speaker 2 (31:52):
Welcome, Welcome Mark.
Speaker 7 (31:54):
I listen to you every morning, and all I can
say is the frustration from millions of us accountability. I
hear you say it all the time, and I hope
whether you, Steve Benn and mak Levin, anyone can tell
the Trump administration if you want to keep everybody for
the next four years, we want to see some accountability.
(32:16):
Some people mock have to go to jail. They can't
lie to Congress. We can't spend millions and billions of
dollars on a bunch of bs as you always say,
and have no accountability. You can't lie every day to
the public. Allah, what's going on in California right now
with the fires. Trump's got to have someone drop the hammer.
(32:38):
And if you want the lying and the bull craft
to stop, there's got to be accountability. People have to
be held accountable, both bodies, whether it's Swallwell, Shumer, shifty shifts.
I hear you say it all the time. But are
the Trump people listening and are they going to do
what they need to do to get the people in
(32:59):
America realize that if we break the law or lie,
we go to jail, that these other people have to also.
Speaker 2 (33:06):
Amen.
Speaker 1 (33:08):
Amen, drop the mic, John, thank you very much for
that call. Look that you said it accountability. No one's
held accountable anymore. I mean, I am you are. Ordinary
Americans are always held accountable. In fact, honestly, I think
we're held to insane standards. One little false move, one
little false word, one little really any they pounce all
(33:30):
over us. But if you're part of the political media
class the swamp, they get away with.
Speaker 2 (33:39):
Crime after crime after crime.
Speaker 1 (33:42):
Gross incompetence, gross negligence. Now let me if it's any comfort, Okay,
and it's small comfort. But if it's any comfort, Gavin
Newsom's national political aspirations are finished. He can spend this
and blame Trump. I have the cots. He went on
NBC's Meet the Mess. He made a fool of himself
(34:05):
trying to blame again. He's also trying to blame Trump
for what's happening in California. And everybody can see that
this is a Democrat disaster. And I think the public's
discussed even in California. A lot of people now finally
are waking up. These people they would screw up a
(34:26):
one car funeral, and they can't spin their way out
of this one. They just can't. And there's something Look
just again, objectively, we're not talking now the debates. We
used to have more taxes, less taxes, a little more spending,
a little less spending, you know whatever.
Speaker 2 (34:47):
Should we go to war, should we not.
Speaker 1 (34:49):
Go to war? Are you pro life or are you
pro choice? We're not talking about that, Like, just forget that,
that's long gone. Now we're talking about the Delta smelt.
Speaker 2 (35:04):
You're like, what, yes, this.
Speaker 1 (35:07):
Little tiny species the smelt, These little fishes, you know,
a little tiny species of fish. You're like, Okay, well, no,
we can't have the reservoirs high.
Speaker 2 (35:14):
Why not. It's bad for the smelt. So we have
to keep.
Speaker 1 (35:18):
Reservoirs very very very low to save the smelt. So
all of this fresh water, millions and millions of gallons,
we're just gonna dump it into the ocean. And you're like,
but but what about the wildfires? What about southern California?
It's a desert. Did they need water? Well, I don't
(35:41):
tell you that. The smelt come before people like this
is now what we're talking about. We're talking firefighters are
going into people's swimming pools to get water to fight
these blazes, swimming pools because there's no water in the
(36:02):
fire hydrants. This is what I This is no longer
more taxes, less taxes, more spending, less spending. This is
we're talking about insanity. We're talking about a level of
incompetence that is staggering that it's almost incredible to behold. Now,
(36:28):
I want you to just and I'm not the only
one that's made this point, but it's it. Look, I
want you to stand back objectively. Okay, look at California.
It's right beside an ocean. It's right beside an ocean
northern California. Do you know how much snow in Northern California
gets and melting snow do you have to get tons
(36:50):
of rain every year? Northern California. California is surrounded by water,
flooded with water. So I want you to think about this.
The wealthiest country in the world, the wealthiest state, in
the wealthiest country, in the wealthiest county. That's Los Angeles County.
(37:16):
That's Hollywood, that's Malibu, that's Beverly Hills, that's Pacific Palisades.
These are homes at five, seven, eight, ten, twenty million
dollar homes. The wealthiest county, in the wealthiest state, in
the wealthiest country has no water.
Speaker 2 (37:44):
That's really.
Speaker 1 (37:45):
That's like saying Saudi Arabia has no sand the Sahara Desert. Well,
there's no sand. What yeah, Gavin Youwson. We made him
the l presidente, the president of out Arabia, and with
Karen Bass as his mayor and the mayor of Riad.
Speaker 2 (38:04):
And there's no sand.
Speaker 1 (38:07):
Can you imagine if we left them in charge of
the Arctic, there be no ice, no really, no snow.
But what do you mean, it's it's it's it's it's
all ice and snow. They got rid of it. They
just diveverted the whole damn thing. He's never gonna recover
from this.
Speaker 6 (38:25):
Now.
Speaker 1 (38:25):
They may re elect him as governor, that I don't know,
but nationally, Gavin Newsom is finished and Karen bass I
don't think politically can survive this.
Speaker 2 (38:38):
I mean the way, every
Speaker 1 (38:39):
The way now, even people underneath her are just blasting
her and blasting her and blasting her
