Speaker 1 (00:00):
Can't I am six forty.
Speaker 2 (00:02):
You're listening to the John Cobel Podcast on the iHeartRadio app.
We are on every day from one until four o'clock
and after four o'clock John Cobelt Show on demand on
the iHeart apps the podcast, so whatever you missed.
Speaker 1 (00:15):
We did a lot on.
Speaker 2 (00:18):
Charlie kirk shooting in the first hour, on the shooter
and the shooter's partner, the trans person who was going
from guy to girl and is also a furry, and
we delve deeply into what furries are because furries have
been connected to the last two major shootings before that
(00:40):
a couple of weeks ago in Minnesota, the guy who
shot up the church and hit about twenty people and
killed two kids, and he was angry because his girlfriend,
who was a furry, he got.
Speaker 1 (00:52):
Sick of her.
Speaker 2 (00:54):
There are such sick subcultures that live on the Internet
and things that never existed when many of us were children,
and now they have blossomed, they have metastasized. This is
like all kinds of weird brain sicknesses, and everybody's demanding
(01:14):
civil rights for their weird mental illnesses. So that's what
we did in the one o'clock hour. You should listen
to that. Chrys Lacrosse coming on now. He's been with
us quite a few times a journalist, and he's been
covering the Senate Bill seventy nine. This is a bill
that would override local zoning laws because in Sacramento, Scott Wiener,
(01:36):
Gavin us, some want to get rid of single family
housing and they're going to do it little by little.
Speaker 1 (01:43):
This is a big step.
Speaker 2 (01:44):
There's going to be neighborhoods who are going to see
single family homes disappear. Developers will buy the lots and
put up six stories, seven stories, maybe even nine stories.
And if you're it's in a half mile of a
transit stop, that's where the trouble starts and a lot
(02:05):
of people are because you just have to be half
mile near a major boulevard that has a bus stop
nearby and train stops as well. Let's talk to Chrys Lagron.
Speaker 1 (02:15):
How are you, Chris good John?
Speaker 3 (02:18):
How are you good? To hear from you?
Speaker 2 (02:19):
So there's no stopping this, huh. Gavin Newst actually is
going to sign this thing because this is evil stuff.
Speaker 3 (02:26):
He's one of the champions. And you remember, this is
the same legislature and the same governor that undercover of
darkness gutted SEQUA two months ago, so they're on quite
theear this year.
Speaker 2 (02:39):
So really, so, I guess what's it going to mean
in practical terms in somebody's life. Let's say they're a
half mile away from a boulevard that has a bus stop.
Speaker 3 (02:51):
Well, for right now, the way the bill passed is amended.
You know, this is all about incrementalism, So right now
your average bus stop doesn't fall under SP seventy nine,
although they will very quickly expand and amend it in
the coming sessions and the coming years. Right now, it's
mostly light rail, heavy rail and certain categories of bus
(03:13):
stops that are known as bus rapid transit, and they're
really focusing. They're really hitting Southern California herd. I mean,
Bay Area lawmakers never underestimate how Bay Area lawmakers just
have it out to Southern California, LA and southern California
have always been even though we're the population center and
the economic center of the state, we've always been the
(03:36):
redheaded step child when it comes to California politics and lawmaking.
So the way this bill in its final form, by
the way Scott Wiener had to amend this bill fourteen times,
or I should say it had to be amended fourteen
times just to get across the finish line, quite literally
in the last hours of the last day of the session.
(03:57):
And just as an aside, that shows you how thoroughly
undemocratic this process has been. Because if you spend nine
months and you barely get across the finish line like
two votes, that's not democracy. That is backroom dealing. That's
wheeling and dealing. That's given these lawmakers whatever they need
(04:19):
in exchange for their vote. So on top of everything else,
it was a very intentionally opaque process. But if you're
in southern California and particularly Los Angeles or San Diego,
Orange County, and you're within a half mile of a
metro stop, you could see in your single family or
even a small multi family neighborhood minimum of five stories
(04:41):
and actually, with what's called density bonus, some of these
buildings within a quarter mile could be up to fifteen stories,
and you could have ten stories within a hat. So
it's not even what's in the bill. You have to
piece everything together like a jigsaw puzzle to get to
the final result.
Speaker 2 (05:00):
You're in a single family home, and you have another
single family home next to you. Let's say it's one story,
like a ranch style home. That lot could be purchased
by a developer and he'll put up up to fifteen
stories of apartments on the same lot.
Speaker 3 (05:14):
Yep.
Speaker 2 (05:16):
In a regular neighborhood, like it's just something like Oak Street, right,
and everybody's living and minding their own business. They have
ordinary looking, middle class holms. All of a sudden, you
have a fifteen story apartment building there.
Speaker 1 (05:29):
Yeah. Yeah.
Speaker 3 (05:30):
And the neighborhoods that are going to get hit first
and worst are working class and lower income neighborhoods because
that's where the land is cheaper, obviously, and that's where
there tends to be more transit service, even though nobody
really uses it. So the places that are going to
get hit first and worst are the very places that
these self righteous progressive democrats otherwise to care claim to
(05:52):
care so very much about. Those are the people who
are going to get screwed first and the hardest.
Speaker 1 (05:56):
And these people don't know what's coming.
Speaker 3 (05:59):
No, no, there's no public outreach requirement, there's no notification requirement.
Speaker 2 (06:04):
No, of course not.
Speaker 3 (06:07):
And by the way, the city will be on the
hook for all the services. So you take a single
family house replaced that, well, let's say let's just go minimum.
Let's say a seven story apartment building, and you've got
one hundred units in that seven story apartment building. The
city of Los Angeles, not the state of California, will
be on the hook for the sewage service and the
water service, and the power service and all the rest
(06:29):
that's necessary to service that building. Sacramento's not going to
pay for that. So they're doubly screwing the cities. They're saying,
you have no control over this kind of growth within
your boundaries. Oh and by the way, you have to
pay for it.
Speaker 1 (06:45):
Are there parking space requirements?
Speaker 3 (06:48):
No? No, And there's a single law that says developers
can replace parking spaces with bicycle racks, So you could theoretically.
Speaker 4 (06:57):
Get what imaginary world, are they living in bicycle wrecks
and encouraging people to take buses.
Speaker 1 (07:08):
Nobody's gonna do that.
Speaker 3 (07:11):
Of course, not. Eighty three percent hate Californians. Eighty three
percent of Californians of all backgrounds, of all income levels,
all walks of life live in single family houses, duplexes, townhouses,
or small apartments with nine or fewer units. That's US
Census Bureau data, eighty three percent. And so the legislature
(07:33):
has just declared war on eighty three percent of Californias.
Speaker 2 (07:38):
I can't believe there's gonna be blowback about this when
people start and start waking up and they're seeing huge
apartment buildings with no parking spaces for them, and all
the extra traffic that's going to come, and then God knows,
God knows who they're going to be renting to. I
have a feeling it's not going to be the same
demographic that's currently owning the homes.
Speaker 3 (07:58):
Well, you know, talking about blow back, there are actually
some uncanny parallels between what's emerging in California today and
the situation in California in the early seventies that culminated
with Prop thirteen. You've got massive increases in housing costs
in a short period of time, stagnant wages. That's where
we got stagflation. Well, here we are in twenty twenty five.
(08:19):
We're in stagflation two point zero. Here in California. We
create five low paying jobs for every decent middle class
or above middle class job, but we create so we've
created Stagplation two point zero, massive government waste that was
a big thing in this said, that's one of the
key contributors to Prop thirteen. So today it's you know,
(08:39):
the bull trained public tensions, the homelessness industrial complex, and
at the same time government actually making the whole situation.
Where so the stars are aligning for a massive blowback
that I think is going to make Prop thirteen look
like child's play. And there's already a movement out there
(09:00):
to amend the California State Constitution to get rid of
all this crap in one fell swoop, because it would
amend that it's called our Neighborhood Voices, and it would
amend the California State Constitution to restore local control that
is city and county control, and local Planning Department control
of rezoning, land use and development, and of course the
(09:23):
constitution Trump's statue. So with one fell swoop, one ring
to rule them all, that would just like Prop thirteen
did with local property taxes, this constitutional amendment would almost
be like Prop thirteen two point zero. So they are
unwittingly setting the stage for the next great taxpayer and
(09:43):
resident revolt in California. And I tell you. John, it's
coming all right.
Speaker 1 (09:48):
We will talk further on this, Crystal Grat Thanks for
coming on.
Speaker 3 (09:52):
Thanks as always, John.
Speaker 1 (09:53):
That is that is hideous.
Speaker 5 (09:55):
You're listening to John Cobelt on demand from KFI AM
six forty.
Speaker 1 (10:02):
Now.
Speaker 2 (10:02):
We just finished telling you about how they have legislation
that's going to be signed by Newsom.
Speaker 1 (10:08):
He loves this idea.
Speaker 2 (10:11):
Somebody sells a lot in your neighborhood, a single family neighborhood,
A developer can buy it and build, let's say, a
seven story apartment building, and suddenly you have dozens and
dozens of new neighbors who are going to be clogging
up the streets with parking because there's no parking requirements.
They think people are going to take bikes and the
(10:36):
traffic is going to be terrible. And you can see
the people in Palisades were so terrified at this and
they were fighting to get exempted. He is a monster,
Scott Wiener who writes these things as a monster. Also
all this, they do have time, though in Sacramento to
(10:59):
pass a bill which is banning federal immigration agents from
wearing masks, believe it or not. And you know they
have all kinds of hysterical rhetoric as to why this
is justified. They passed this bill. They cannot cover their
(11:20):
faces while interacting with the public, and they don't know
if something is going to sign it or not. We're
looking at the constitutionality of it. Here's the constitutional constitutional question.
There's something called the supremacy caulk, the supremacy clause. Federal
(11:40):
law overrides state law. You can't design a dress code
for federal immigration agents. For federal law enforcement. These people
in Sacramento, this is performative nonsense. They're a bunch of nitties.
You can't tell the federal government how to dress their
law enforcement officers. Your bunch e attention hungry wind bags,
(12:05):
vawyeur rhetoric. I'm just astonished they're wasting all this time.
The way not to encounter an immigration agent is don't
be here illegally. Like every other nation on the planet,
(12:28):
if you're breaking the law and you're here illegally, you
may encounter a law enforcement agent from the federal government.
So don't stay here. It's time to go. Hasn't the
message gotten through yet? And they can't wear masks. Oh,
they can't wear masks, So the agent can be dosed
and their family could be terrorized. This is what we're
(12:51):
dealing with. Here's an NBC News report on an illegal
alien accused of beheading a Dallas motel.
Speaker 1 (13:00):
Real story from video of.
Speaker 6 (13:02):
The suspect's arrest to when first responders arrived on scene.
Details into the beheading death of a motel manager are disturbing.
Speaker 4 (13:11):
That stabbing.
Speaker 1 (13:12):
The suspect has a machete and fire is in yer
has never seen that he is actually cutting someone's head off.
Speaker 6 (13:21):
Dallas Police say they were called to Downtown suites around
nine point thirty this morning after witnesses like this motel
resident who asked not to be identified, called nine to
one one as tuning.
Speaker 1 (13:32):
But I'm never seeing somebody who get pretty herdsff goal.
Speaker 6 (13:36):
According to a newly released arrest AffA David, the suspect
got upset when the victim used a translator to tell
the suspect not to use a broken washing machine in
the laundry room. It says the suspect then produced a
machete and started cutting and stabbing the victim.
Speaker 1 (13:54):
Well, it was chasing hill. Your Mayor will Lewis Holler
stops false falk.
Speaker 6 (13:59):
After running for his life witness to say the suspect
decapitated the victim in front of his wife and son.
They left his head in a dumpster. The suspect arrested
a short time later, his shirt covered in blood. Has
now been identified as your Donnis Cobos Martinez, a thirty
seven year old linked to crimes in California, Florida, and Houston.
(14:22):
The Cuban national now charged with capital murder and on
an icehold in the Dallas County jail. The victim identified
by police as fifty year old Chandra Nagomalia, whom motel
property owners describe as a good, hard working person.
Speaker 1 (14:39):
That it is horrendous committed crimes in California. Did he
spend any time in jail?
Speaker 2 (14:44):
Here? Is this one of those people Knewseom and Bass
were protecting. They certainly would like to protect people like this.
This is when Bass is screaming in the streets, practically
spinning at ice agent. She's so enraged. She's protecting this
guy who beheads people. You know, if he was arrested
(15:08):
on the streets of LA and it was some kind
of incident that grabbed attention and there was video, she'd
be out insisting that this man's rights were violated, except
that he'd beheaded a guy in Dallas. I hope there's
a follow up on this as to what is time
(15:29):
in California was like When we come back, all the
insanity around people's reacting to the Charlie Kirk assassination does feel.
Speaker 1 (15:40):
Like end of days.
Speaker 5 (15:42):
You're listening to John Cobels on demand from KFI AM
six forty.
Speaker 2 (15:47):
Run from one until four every day and after four o'clock.
John Cobelt's show on demand moistline is eight seven seven
Moist eighty six eight seven seven Moist eighty six, or
use the talkback feature on the iHeart radio app.
Speaker 1 (16:00):
You've probably been heard about this.
Speaker 2 (16:03):
There are people getting fired all over the country from
all lines of work, popping off about Charlie Kirk getting assassinated,
cheering it on. One of the evils of social media
is that has bred so much narcissism in people. People
dying to take the stage and in order to get attention,
(16:27):
blurting out the most extreme, disgusting thing imaginable and thinking
thinking that the whole world needs to know. I'm going
to read you a couple of these. I could go
on for hours. There were so many of them, but
a couple really stood out in Toronto. At Corvette Junior
(16:50):
Public School in a town Scarborough, near Toronto, he's been
kicked out of the school. He showed the video of
Kirk getting assassinated of taking the shot in the neck
to a class of ten and eleven year olds and
(17:13):
he was playing it over and over again. A source
said several students from the class went home and complained
to their parents they were traumatized.
Speaker 1 (17:24):
They were forced to watch it numerous times. He had
it on a loop of Charlie Kirk getting blown away.
Speaker 2 (17:33):
So he's on leave, and while playing the video over
and over, he gave a speech to these little kids
about anti fascism, anti trans and how Charlie Kirk deserved
for this to occur. Why are so many progressives insane
and they're all in education. This guy wasn't even the
(17:58):
only one to get to get caught in the Toronto area.
There also was a professor, doctor Ruth Marshall at the
University of Toronto. She posted on x after the murder shooting,
(18:20):
is honestly too good for so many of you fascist bleeps.
The Premier and the Minister of the university's department immediately
started denouncing her. Here is a surgeon in New Jersey,
(18:44):
in Englewood, not far from where I grew up, doctor
Matthew Jung. He popped off at work and was called
out by a nurse named Lexi Kunzo. So doctor Matthew
Jung was cheering Charlie Kirk's murder, and Lexi Kunzol calls
(19:11):
him on it, saying like, how could you?
Speaker 1 (19:13):
How could you do that.
Speaker 2 (19:16):
When your job is to save lives? How could you
be cheering a death? And she briefly got suspended.
Speaker 1 (19:24):
She did the hell.
Speaker 2 (19:30):
Now after all the outcry, Jung is resigning and uh,
Lexi Kunzol has been reinstated. Now they're claiming the nurse
was never fired. Well, she was sent home. Kunzel already
(19:50):
filed a lawsuit because she was suspended. And then in Boise, Idaho.
We're gonna play a clip here.
Speaker 1 (20:01):
This was.
Speaker 2 (20:05):
This just some kind of vigil they were having in Boise, right,
and then lunatics descended who were happy that Charlie Kirk
had gotten murdered and they were angry with the people
at the vigil.
Speaker 1 (20:21):
Listen to this, this guy's gonna have this is a
brad put me online, man, put me online. You saw
(21:10):
what take you on? That free speech? I came out
here with free speech, y'all came with this. Hey, hey,
Tony thirty.
Speaker 5 (21:16):
Forty mother, give me the ones, baby, shoot the ones
with me.
Speaker 1 (21:20):
Any, Charlie Cock, Charlie Cock, I'm taking you can believe
in these mothers. Believe that, believe that. Now rending ask
for no help. I didn't know for no help.
Speaker 3 (21:41):
No help? You know, yeah, you.
Speaker 5 (21:46):
Wouldn't be that.
Speaker 3 (21:49):
Hand.
Speaker 2 (22:03):
Now he's getting arrested. A civilization has completely grumbled. This
is in Boise, Idaho, of all places. There was a
local Black Lives Matter activist who is the center of
the trouble, forty one year old Terry Wilson. He's the
one you heard him yelling f Charlie Kirk with a
rainbow colored backpack, and he kept cursing and shouting at
(22:23):
the crowd, and eventually it turned into a big brawl
and he was knocked to the ground, kicked and beaten
before getting up and punching back.
Speaker 1 (22:38):
And claiming he's claiming he deserves free speech. Good lord.
Speaker 2 (22:47):
Oh and speaking of free speech, because I heard so
many stupid reports and stupid comments. Today, you're right to
free speech only exists in the sense that the government
cannot penalize you, cannot punish you for your speech, with
exceptions the government. You can't say anything you want at work,
(23:10):
you can't post anything you want. Your employer can take
any action they wish if they don't like it. Are
people shout free speech? They have no idea what that
concept means. It means the government can can't stop you
from speaking that. The government can't punish you a workplace
definitely can if they think you're making their business look
(23:35):
bad and you're going to hurt their business in some way,
then of course they can suspend you, or fire you,
or publicly reprimand you. The people, but I guess you
know they don't even teach this in school, like exactly
what the Constitution says. No, we don't have a right
to free speech twenty four to seven wherever we want
without consequences.
Speaker 1 (23:56):
There's plenty of consequences, good lord.
Speaker 2 (24:01):
And the people screaming about it now were the people
doing the canceling a few years back. It's the same people.
They're the ones shouting f Charlie Kirk, And now they're
squealing that they've been canceled.
Speaker 5 (24:15):
Good lord, you're listening to John Cobels on demand from
KFI six.
Speaker 1 (24:24):
You know.
Speaker 2 (24:24):
Gavin Newsom tries to mislead everybody in thinking that California
is this huge success because we have one of the
largest economies in the world, fourth largest, he claims, if
it was its own country, except that as extremely overweighted
in one direction towards the tech companies Google, Apple, Meta,
(24:46):
and VideA. That's for the Magnificent seven, which is for
the largest companies and the most valuable companies. These companies
are worth the trillions of dollars in market capitalization, and
they're here in California, they're headquarters. So California gets credit
for producing all that revenue, all that economic output, but
(25:13):
a lot of it's from for those companies, those four companies.
The rest of the state, well, there's seven million people
who live in poverty in California, and that is not
only the largest number of any state, it is the
highest rate of poverty in the nation, the highest rate
of poverty, not just total cases.
Speaker 1 (25:33):
Because we're the biggest state, we.
Speaker 2 (25:37):
Are tied with Louisiana for number one, number one with Louisiana.
That's the real state of the California economy. And how
much do you think that poverty is aggravated by having
by far the highest electricity prices in the state and
by far the highest gas prices in the state. Electricity
(25:57):
price is double most other states. Gas two dollars more
than many other states. This is from US census data
that was analyzed by the California Budget and Policy Center.
Seventeen point seven percent of the state lived in poverty.
(26:21):
And they don't Those seven million people don't have the
resources to meet their basic needs. We have the worst unemployment,
the highest electricity prices, the highest gas prices.
Speaker 1 (26:38):
It's the worst job market in the country.
Speaker 2 (26:41):
And then he blows his gas about, Oh, I've got
the fourth largest economy. It's the tech companies. Yeah, he
had nothing to do with that. Google and Apple and
Meta and Nvidia. They conduct all their business without any
Gavin Newsome input.
Speaker 1 (27:04):
And I hear people.
Speaker 2 (27:04):
Repeating that nonsensus, this statistic over and over again. Sure,
I read that, you know, an average engineer at Facebook
is making four thousand dollars a year. I see that
they are signing AI geniuses for two hundred and fifty
million dollar contracts. They're gonna be getting paid like baseball
(27:28):
or basketball players. Yeah, they're doing great, but if you're
in poverty, you try pay five five dollars a gallon
for gas.
Speaker 1 (27:41):
Unbelievable what he gets away with.
Speaker 2 (27:44):
Conway's up next. We'll see you tomorrow. Michael Krazer has
the news live in the KFI twenty four hour 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 to four pm every Monday through Friday,
and of course, anytime on demand on the iHeartRadio app
Can't I am six forty.
Speaker 2 (00:02):
You're listening to the John Cobel Podcast on the iHeartRadio app.
We are on every day from one until four o'clock
and after four o'clock John Cobelt Show on demand on
the iHeart apps the podcast, so whatever you missed.
Speaker 1 (00:15):
We did a lot on.
Speaker 2 (00:18):
Charlie kirk shooting in the first hour, on the shooter
and the shooter's partner, the trans person who was going
from guy to girl and is also a furry, and
we delve deeply into what furries are because furries have
been connected to the last two major shootings before that
(00:40):
a couple of weeks ago in Minnesota, the guy who
shot up the church and hit about twenty people and
killed two kids, and he was angry because his girlfriend,
who was a furry, he got.
Speaker 1 (00:52):
Sick of her.
Speaker 2 (00:54):
There are such sick subcultures that live on the Internet
and things that never existed when many of us were children,
and now they have blossomed, they have metastasized. This is
like all kinds of weird brain sicknesses, and everybody's demanding
(01:14):
civil rights for their weird mental illnesses. So that's what
we did in the one o'clock hour. You should listen
to that. Chrys Lacrosse coming on now. He's been with
us quite a few times a journalist, and he's been
covering the Senate Bill seventy nine. This is a bill
that would override local zoning laws because in Sacramento, Scott Wiener,
(01:36):
Gavin us, some want to get rid of single family
housing and they're going to do it little by little.
Speaker 1 (01:43):
This is a big step.
Speaker 2 (01:44):
There's going to be neighborhoods who are going to see
single family homes disappear. Developers will buy the lots and
put up six stories, seven stories, maybe even nine stories.
And if you're it's in a half mile of a
transit stop, that's where the trouble starts and a lot
(02:05):
of people are because you just have to be half
mile near a major boulevard that has a bus stop
nearby and train stops as well. Let's talk to Chrys Lagron.
Speaker 1 (02:15):
How are you, Chris good John?
Speaker 3 (02:18):
How are you good? To hear from you?
Speaker 2 (02:19):
So there's no stopping this, huh. Gavin Newst actually is
going to sign this thing because this is evil stuff.
Speaker 3 (02:26):
He's one of the champions. And you remember, this is
the same legislature and the same governor that undercover of
darkness gutted SEQUA two months ago, so they're on quite
theear this year.
Speaker 2 (02:39):
So really, so, I guess what's it going to mean
in practical terms in somebody's life. Let's say they're a
half mile away from a boulevard that has a bus stop.
Speaker 3 (02:51):
Well, for right now, the way the bill passed is amended.
You know, this is all about incrementalism, So right now
your average bus stop doesn't fall under SP seventy nine,
although they will very quickly expand and amend it in
the coming sessions and the coming years. Right now, it's
mostly light rail, heavy rail and certain categories of bus
(03:13):
stops that are known as bus rapid transit, and they're
really focusing. They're really hitting Southern California herd. I mean,
Bay Area lawmakers never underestimate how Bay Area lawmakers just
have it out to Southern California, LA and southern California
have always been even though we're the population center and
the economic center of the state, we've always been the
(03:36):
redheaded step child when it comes to California politics and lawmaking.
So the way this bill in its final form, by
the way Scott Wiener had to amend this bill fourteen times,
or I should say it had to be amended fourteen
times just to get across the finish line, quite literally
in the last hours of the last day of the session.
(03:57):
And just as an aside, that shows you how thoroughly
undemocratic this process has been. Because if you spend nine
months and you barely get across the finish line like
two votes, that's not democracy. That is backroom dealing. That's
wheeling and dealing. That's given these lawmakers whatever they need
(04:19):
in exchange for their vote. So on top of everything else,
it was a very intentionally opaque process. But if you're
in southern California and particularly Los Angeles or San Diego,
Orange County, and you're within a half mile of a
metro stop, you could see in your single family or
even a small multi family neighborhood minimum of five stories
(04:41):
and actually, with what's called density bonus, some of these
buildings within a quarter mile could be up to fifteen stories,
and you could have ten stories within a hat. So
it's not even what's in the bill. You have to
piece everything together like a jigsaw puzzle to get to
the final result.
Speaker 2 (05:00):
You're in a single family home, and you have another
single family home next to you. Let's say it's one story,
like a ranch style home. That lot could be purchased
by a developer and he'll put up up to fifteen
stories of apartments on the same lot.
Speaker 3 (05:14):
Yep.
Speaker 2 (05:16):
In a regular neighborhood, like it's just something like Oak Street, right,
and everybody's living and minding their own business. They have
ordinary looking, middle class holms. All of a sudden, you
have a fifteen story apartment building there.
Speaker 1 (05:29):
Yeah. Yeah.
Speaker 3 (05:30):
And the neighborhoods that are going to get hit first
and worst are working class and lower income neighborhoods because
that's where the land is cheaper, obviously, and that's where
there tends to be more transit service, even though nobody
really uses it. So the places that are going to
get hit first and worst are the very places that
these self righteous progressive democrats otherwise to care claim to
(05:52):
care so very much about. Those are the people who
are going to get screwed first and the hardest.
Speaker 1 (05:56):
And these people don't know what's coming.
Speaker 3 (05:59):
No, no, there's no public outreach requirement, there's no notification requirement.
Speaker 2 (06:04):
No, of course not.
Speaker 3 (06:07):
And by the way, the city will be on the
hook for all the services. So you take a single
family house replaced that, well, let's say let's just go minimum.
Let's say a seven story apartment building, and you've got
one hundred units in that seven story apartment building. The
city of Los Angeles, not the state of California, will
be on the hook for the sewage service and the
water service, and the power service and all the rest
(06:29):
that's necessary to service that building. Sacramento's not going to
pay for that. So they're doubly screwing the cities. They're saying,
you have no control over this kind of growth within
your boundaries. Oh and by the way, you have to
pay for it.
Speaker 1 (06:45):
Are there parking space requirements?
Speaker 3 (06:48):
No? No, And there's a single law that says developers
can replace parking spaces with bicycle racks, So you could theoretically.
Speaker 4 (06:57):
Get what imaginary world, are they living in bicycle wrecks
and encouraging people to take buses.
Speaker 1 (07:08):
Nobody's gonna do that.
Speaker 3 (07:11):
Of course, not. Eighty three percent hate Californians. Eighty three
percent of Californians of all backgrounds, of all income levels,
all walks of life live in single family houses, duplexes, townhouses,
or small apartments with nine or fewer units. That's US
Census Bureau data, eighty three percent. And so the legislature
(07:33):
has just declared war on eighty three percent of Californias.
Speaker 2 (07:38):
I can't believe there's gonna be blowback about this when
people start and start waking up and they're seeing huge
apartment buildings with no parking spaces for them, and all
the extra traffic that's going to come, and then God knows,
God knows who they're going to be renting to. I
have a feeling it's not going to be the same
demographic that's currently owning the homes.
Speaker 3 (07:58):
Well, you know, talking about blow back, there are actually
some uncanny parallels between what's emerging in California today and
the situation in California in the early seventies that culminated
with Prop thirteen. You've got massive increases in housing costs
in a short period of time, stagnant wages. That's where
we got stagflation. Well, here we are in twenty twenty five.
(08:19):
We're in stagflation two point zero. Here in California. We
create five low paying jobs for every decent middle class
or above middle class job, but we create so we've
created Stagplation two point zero, massive government waste that was
a big thing in this said, that's one of the
key contributors to Prop thirteen. So today it's you know,
(08:39):
the bull trained public tensions, the homelessness industrial complex, and
at the same time government actually making the whole situation.
Where so the stars are aligning for a massive blowback
that I think is going to make Prop thirteen look
like child's play. And there's already a movement out there
(09:00):
to amend the California State Constitution to get rid of
all this crap in one fell swoop, because it would
amend that it's called our Neighborhood Voices, and it would
amend the California State Constitution to restore local control that
is city and county control, and local Planning Department control
of rezoning, land use and development, and of course the
(09:23):
constitution Trump's statue. So with one fell swoop, one ring
to rule them all, that would just like Prop thirteen
did with local property taxes, this constitutional amendment would almost
be like Prop thirteen two point zero. So they are
unwittingly setting the stage for the next great taxpayer and
(09:43):
resident revolt in California. And I tell you. John, it's
coming all right.
Speaker 1 (09:48):
We will talk further on this, Crystal Grat Thanks for
coming on.
Speaker 3 (09:52):
Thanks as always, John.
Speaker 1 (09:53):
That is that is hideous.
Speaker 5 (09:55):
You're listening to John Cobelt on demand from KFI AM
six forty.
Speaker 1 (10:02):
Now.
Speaker 2 (10:02):
We just finished telling you about how they have legislation
that's going to be signed by Newsom.
Speaker 1 (10:08):
He loves this idea.
Speaker 2 (10:11):
Somebody sells a lot in your neighborhood, a single family neighborhood,
A developer can buy it and build, let's say, a
seven story apartment building, and suddenly you have dozens and
dozens of new neighbors who are going to be clogging
up the streets with parking because there's no parking requirements.
They think people are going to take bikes and the
(10:36):
traffic is going to be terrible. And you can see
the people in Palisades were so terrified at this and
they were fighting to get exempted. He is a monster,
Scott Wiener who writes these things as a monster. Also
all this, they do have time, though in Sacramento to
(10:59):
pass a bill which is banning federal immigration agents from
wearing masks, believe it or not. And you know they
have all kinds of hysterical rhetoric as to why this
is justified. They passed this bill. They cannot cover their
(11:20):
faces while interacting with the public, and they don't know
if something is going to sign it or not. We're
looking at the constitutionality of it. Here's the constitutional constitutional question.
There's something called the supremacy caulk, the supremacy clause. Federal
(11:40):
law overrides state law. You can't design a dress code
for federal immigration agents. For federal law enforcement. These people
in Sacramento, this is performative nonsense. They're a bunch of nitties.
You can't tell the federal government how to dress their
law enforcement officers. Your bunch e attention hungry wind bags,
(12:05):
vawyeur rhetoric. I'm just astonished they're wasting all this time.
The way not to encounter an immigration agent is don't
be here illegally. Like every other nation on the planet,
(12:28):
if you're breaking the law and you're here illegally, you
may encounter a law enforcement agent from the federal government.
So don't stay here. It's time to go. Hasn't the
message gotten through yet? And they can't wear masks. Oh,
they can't wear masks, So the agent can be dosed
and their family could be terrorized. This is what we're
(12:51):
dealing with. Here's an NBC News report on an illegal
alien accused of beheading a Dallas motel.
Speaker 1 (13:00):
Real story from video of.
Speaker 6 (13:02):
The suspect's arrest to when first responders arrived on scene.
Details into the beheading death of a motel manager are disturbing.
Speaker 4 (13:11):
That stabbing.
Speaker 1 (13:12):
The suspect has a machete and fire is in yer
has never seen that he is actually cutting someone's head off.
Speaker 6 (13:21):
Dallas Police say they were called to Downtown suites around
nine point thirty this morning after witnesses like this motel
resident who asked not to be identified, called nine to
one one as tuning.
Speaker 1 (13:32):
But I'm never seeing somebody who get pretty herdsff goal.
Speaker 6 (13:36):
According to a newly released arrest AffA David, the suspect
got upset when the victim used a translator to tell
the suspect not to use a broken washing machine in
the laundry room. It says the suspect then produced a
machete and started cutting and stabbing the victim.
Speaker 1 (13:54):
Well, it was chasing hill. Your Mayor will Lewis Holler
stops false falk.
Speaker 6 (13:59):
After running for his life witness to say the suspect
decapitated the victim in front of his wife and son.
They left his head in a dumpster. The suspect arrested
a short time later, his shirt covered in blood. Has
now been identified as your Donnis Cobos Martinez, a thirty
seven year old linked to crimes in California, Florida, and Houston.
(14:22):
The Cuban national now charged with capital murder and on
an icehold in the Dallas County jail. The victim identified
by police as fifty year old Chandra Nagomalia, whom motel
property owners describe as a good, hard working person.
Speaker 1 (14:39):
That it is horrendous committed crimes in California. Did he
spend any time in jail?
Speaker 2 (14:44):
Here? Is this one of those people Knewseom and Bass
were protecting. They certainly would like to protect people like this.
This is when Bass is screaming in the streets, practically
spinning at ice agent. She's so enraged. She's protecting this
guy who beheads people. You know, if he was arrested
(15:08):
on the streets of LA and it was some kind
of incident that grabbed attention and there was video, she'd
be out insisting that this man's rights were violated, except
that he'd beheaded a guy in Dallas. I hope there's
a follow up on this as to what is time
(15:29):
in California was like When we come back, all the
insanity around people's reacting to the Charlie Kirk assassination does feel.
Speaker 1 (15:40):
Like end of days.
Speaker 5 (15:42):
You're listening to John Cobels on demand from KFI AM
six forty.
Speaker 2 (15:47):
Run from one until four every day and after four o'clock.
John Cobelt's show on demand moistline is eight seven seven
Moist eighty six eight seven seven Moist eighty six, or
use the talkback feature on the iHeart radio app.
Speaker 1 (16:00):
You've probably been heard about this.
Speaker 2 (16:03):
There are people getting fired all over the country from
all lines of work, popping off about Charlie Kirk getting assassinated,
cheering it on. One of the evils of social media
is that has bred so much narcissism in people. People
dying to take the stage and in order to get attention,
(16:27):
blurting out the most extreme, disgusting thing imaginable and thinking
thinking that the whole world needs to know. I'm going
to read you a couple of these. I could go
on for hours. There were so many of them, but
a couple really stood out in Toronto. At Corvette Junior
(16:50):
Public School in a town Scarborough, near Toronto, he's been
kicked out of the school. He showed the video of
Kirk getting assassinated of taking the shot in the neck
to a class of ten and eleven year olds and
(17:13):
he was playing it over and over again. A source
said several students from the class went home and complained
to their parents they were traumatized.
Speaker 1 (17:24):
They were forced to watch it numerous times. He had
it on a loop of Charlie Kirk getting blown away.
Speaker 2 (17:33):
So he's on leave, and while playing the video over
and over, he gave a speech to these little kids
about anti fascism, anti trans and how Charlie Kirk deserved
for this to occur. Why are so many progressives insane
and they're all in education. This guy wasn't even the
(17:58):
only one to get to get caught in the Toronto area.
There also was a professor, doctor Ruth Marshall at the
University of Toronto. She posted on x after the murder shooting,
(18:20):
is honestly too good for so many of you fascist bleeps.
The Premier and the Minister of the university's department immediately
started denouncing her. Here is a surgeon in New Jersey,
(18:44):
in Englewood, not far from where I grew up, doctor
Matthew Jung. He popped off at work and was called
out by a nurse named Lexi Kunzo. So doctor Matthew
Jung was cheering Charlie Kirk's murder, and Lexi Kunzol calls
(19:11):
him on it, saying like, how could you?
Speaker 1 (19:13):
How could you do that.
Speaker 2 (19:16):
When your job is to save lives? How could you
be cheering a death? And she briefly got suspended.
Speaker 1 (19:24):
She did the hell.
Speaker 2 (19:30):
Now after all the outcry, Jung is resigning and uh,
Lexi Kunzol has been reinstated. Now they're claiming the nurse
was never fired. Well, she was sent home. Kunzel already
(19:50):
filed a lawsuit because she was suspended. And then in Boise, Idaho.
We're gonna play a clip here.
Speaker 1 (20:01):
This was.
Speaker 2 (20:05):
This just some kind of vigil they were having in Boise, right,
and then lunatics descended who were happy that Charlie Kirk
had gotten murdered and they were angry with the people
at the vigil.
Speaker 1 (20:21):
Listen to this, this guy's gonna have this is a
brad put me online, man, put me online. You saw
(21:10):
what take you on? That free speech? I came out
here with free speech, y'all came with this. Hey, hey,
Tony thirty.
Speaker 5 (21:16):
Forty mother, give me the ones, baby, shoot the ones
with me.
Speaker 1 (21:20):
Any, Charlie Cock, Charlie Cock, I'm taking you can believe
in these mothers. Believe that, believe that. Now rending ask
for no help. I didn't know for no help.
Speaker 3 (21:41):
No help? You know, yeah, you.
Speaker 5 (21:46):
Wouldn't be that.
Speaker 3 (21:49):
Hand.
Speaker 2 (22:03):
Now he's getting arrested. A civilization has completely grumbled. This
is in Boise, Idaho, of all places. There was a
local Black Lives Matter activist who is the center of
the trouble, forty one year old Terry Wilson. He's the
one you heard him yelling f Charlie Kirk with a
rainbow colored backpack, and he kept cursing and shouting at
(22:23):
the crowd, and eventually it turned into a big brawl
and he was knocked to the ground, kicked and beaten
before getting up and punching back.
Speaker 1 (22:38):
And claiming he's claiming he deserves free speech. Good lord.
Speaker 2 (22:47):
Oh and speaking of free speech, because I heard so
many stupid reports and stupid comments. Today, you're right to
free speech only exists in the sense that the government
cannot penalize you, cannot punish you for your speech, with
exceptions the government. You can't say anything you want at work,
(23:10):
you can't post anything you want. Your employer can take
any action they wish if they don't like it. Are
people shout free speech? They have no idea what that
concept means. It means the government can can't stop you
from speaking that. The government can't punish you a workplace
definitely can if they think you're making their business look
(23:35):
bad and you're going to hurt their business in some way,
then of course they can suspend you, or fire you,
or publicly reprimand you. The people, but I guess you
know they don't even teach this in school, like exactly
what the Constitution says. No, we don't have a right
to free speech twenty four to seven wherever we want
without consequences.
Speaker 1 (23:56):
There's plenty of consequences, good lord.
Speaker 2 (24:01):
And the people screaming about it now were the people
doing the canceling a few years back. It's the same people.
They're the ones shouting f Charlie Kirk, And now they're
squealing that they've been canceled.
Speaker 5 (24:15):
Good lord, you're listening to John Cobels on demand from
KFI six.
Speaker 1 (24:24):
You know.
Speaker 2 (24:24):
Gavin Newsom tries to mislead everybody in thinking that California
is this huge success because we have one of the
largest economies in the world, fourth largest, he claims, if
it was its own country, except that as extremely overweighted
in one direction towards the tech companies Google, Apple, Meta,
(24:46):
and VideA. That's for the Magnificent seven, which is for
the largest companies and the most valuable companies. These companies
are worth the trillions of dollars in market capitalization, and
they're here in California, they're headquarters. So California gets credit
for producing all that revenue, all that economic output, but
(25:13):
a lot of it's from for those companies, those four companies.
The rest of the state, well, there's seven million people
who live in poverty in California, and that is not
only the largest number of any state, it is the
highest rate of poverty in the nation, the highest rate
of poverty, not just total cases.
Speaker 1 (25:33):
Because we're the biggest state, we.
Speaker 2 (25:37):
Are tied with Louisiana for number one, number one with Louisiana.
That's the real state of the California economy. And how
much do you think that poverty is aggravated by having
by far the highest electricity prices in the state and
by far the highest gas prices in the state. Electricity
(25:57):
price is double most other states. Gas two dollars more
than many other states. This is from US census data
that was analyzed by the California Budget and Policy Center.
Seventeen point seven percent of the state lived in poverty.
(26:21):
And they don't Those seven million people don't have the
resources to meet their basic needs. We have the worst unemployment,
the highest electricity prices, the highest gas prices.
Speaker 1 (26:38):
It's the worst job market in the country.
Speaker 2 (26:41):
And then he blows his gas about, Oh, I've got
the fourth largest economy. It's the tech companies. Yeah, he
had nothing to do with that. Google and Apple and
Meta and Nvidia. They conduct all their business without any
Gavin Newsome input.
Speaker 1 (27:04):
And I hear people.
Speaker 2 (27:04):
Repeating that nonsensus, this statistic over and over again. Sure,
I read that, you know, an average engineer at Facebook
is making four thousand dollars a year. I see that
they are signing AI geniuses for two hundred and fifty
million dollar contracts. They're gonna be getting paid like baseball
(27:28):
or basketball players. Yeah, they're doing great, but if you're
in poverty, you try pay five five dollars a gallon
for gas.
Speaker 1 (27:41):
Unbelievable what he gets away with.
