(01:30):

We have anybody that we're zooming today? No, you feel lonely? What's
the problem? No, because alot of you know, Joel and a
few other people that come in,you know, do it from the house,
and you know, we everything's here'smonitors. I'm right here, except
(01:51):
you right here. Yeah, andexcept Dann right here. Okay, so
it's cono and in this case,uh, Heather, good morning, Cono
and Heather, good morning, goodmorning. All right. So Heather and
I were talking before we started theshow, and we're talking about July fourth,
and she she's filling in next weekfor Amy. And I asked Heather,
(02:15):
or I think she mentioned, areyou working July fourth? And of
course not. And then I askedHeather, are you working? And she
said, yes, I'm working.And what was my response to that?
Heather, you said, I amlow man on the totem pole, I
said, the food chain. Oh, okay, very low on the food
chain. That's what happens. I'mthe lowest of the low. I get
(02:35):
it. I know they're you knowwhat, they're may be lower people on
the food chain. Cono, areyou working touly fourth? Yes, Okay,
you're there, lower than Heather.Okay, Anne, are you working?
Yes? I am wow. Neil, are you working? I don't
know? Okay, I really,I genuinely don't. I don't think I
saw your name on the list.Okay, so probably not. Ok That's
(03:00):
so it's not only the joy ofenjoying July fourth. I mean, I
really like July fourth. I takeit reasonably serious, seriously, you know,
the establishment of the United States ofAmerica, that sort of thing.
But what makes it particularly enjoyable forme is you guys have to work.
(03:22):
That's one of my favorite holidays.Yeah, especially when you're sitting here four
o'clock in the morning. Now,there's a whole philosophy there that we have
shared. For example, I onlyhave poor friends, And why do I
only have poor friends so I canfeel richer? The last thing I need
is wealthy people as my friends.I don't need that. It's an esteem
(03:46):
issue, So hang out with poorpeople. You feel great? Why staring
at me? You know, Ionly hang out with a holes so I
feel better about myself. So that'swhy we're friends. So there you go.
Okay, so much for that,and we'll do today. No,
I'm just thinking. I was talkingto Lindsey as matter of fact, and
(04:12):
it used to be that people thathang out flags in front of their house
July fourth particularly, were just peoplethat enjoyed July fourth. They yeah,
they Okay. Now you immediately assumeit's a Trump is different. Yeah,
isn't it. It's don't give itup. Don't give up the flag.
The flag is for everyone has changedits whole The flag is forever reason.
(04:39):
Now that is just a question,is that person a Trump is? Who
is displaying a flag? Because asyou're right, what if it's I'm not.
I take great pride in my father, whose parents came here from Mexico,
made a big point of flying ourflag and explaining to me as a
(05:00):
young child and the importance of itand the pride that surrounds it. And
I've taken that is one of thefirst things I did when I bought a
house was put up a a holdera flag for a flag. Yeah.
Uh. Samuel Alito has a flagpole in front of his because of all
the flags they have to fly.Yeah. But in general. You see
(05:23):
flags, wife puts it like sixof them. You're so this is grandparents
that came in for me, Yes, from one on one. But those
days the trunks of cars were notthat big, were they Did they both
come in at the same time?Uh? My knowledge is they came legally
but didn't stay legally. So mygrandfather went back. My grandfather went back
(05:44):
and died in Mexico. That washis home. My grandmother said since she
had children here, that she wasstaying. And my understanding is that she
stayed illegally. Do you know whoelse? And I saw the other day
a pickup truck, you know,raised pickup truck with a giant wheels that
you know you have to use aladder to get into them. And I
knew that was a Trump a Trumpist, because again even those you think for
(06:12):
some reason now are trump iss.It's just by the way, the fact
that he had a six foot flagflying that's on it. Yeah, you
can't give up the flag. Asfar as the American flag, that's for
everybody. But as far as theuh, raised trucks, yeah, I
think you can give those to thetrump Yeah, those pretty I think that's
a pretty good call. Yeah,okay, guys, let's do it handle
(06:34):
on the news with Heather and Neiland me lead Storry. There's a side
God. Juliassans going back to Australiaafter twelve years of fighting it fighting coming
the United States, the extradition.The US has asked for extradition because Wiki
(06:55):
leaks. Uh. Of course,all of those secrets, those top classified,
those highly classified, top secret documentsregarding the war in Iraq and Afghanistan,
et cetera, those were all releasedand he got nailed. They issued
a they issued a warrant for hisarrest. And he's been fighting him for
twelve years. He was an ecuadorat the Ecuadorian embassy in England for what
(07:19):
five years or eight years? Yeah, and they kicked him out you know
that. They finally kicked him outbecause he was such an a hole.
He was so obnoxious, he wouldn'tbathe Yeah, I heard. He was
filthy, filthy and so rude toeverybody there that they just they couldn't do
it. They gave him Ecuadorian citizenshipand then took it back. What a
(07:46):
guy. Anyway, they showed himthe Ecuador Yeah, it's very strong.
Yeah, so it was interesting guy. Anyway, he cut a deal going
back to Australia. The US.He's going to He's going to go to
a US territory and he is goingto plead guilty, but the judge is
going to give him exactly the sentencefor time served. So he's a free
(08:09):
man. He's walking back to Australiaall right. Teens pretending to be ICE
agents robbed Hispanic people. Two ofthem pretended to be allegedly pretended to be
federal law enforcement agents, so theytargeted Hispanic people in Orange County. Both
nineteen year olds were arrested five hoursafter a pair of robberies in Anaheim,
(08:31):
and apparently they were approaching the victims, identified themselves as Immigration and Customs Enforcement
ICE agents, demanded cash and thenfled in a blue OUDI. You know,
when you think about this, theseare nineteen year old kids that are
going up to people who are illegalhere, and at first glance, you
(08:52):
go, come on, how doyou think a nineteen year old? Are
you that dumb that a nineteen yearold? But are what it really says,
these people are so vulnerable and sofrightened. Yes, that even this
kind of level of craziness in termsof a nineteen year old. If some
nineteen year old came up to you, you and said, hey, I
want money, you pay me orI'm picking you up. Who you know
(09:16):
you're nineteen or you're twenty, oryou're you look like a teenager, or
you look like a twenty three yearold, leave me alone. Well,
apparently they were using some sort ofbadge that looked, you know, kind
of real, So people were youknow, Yeah, those badges aren't hard
to get, and most ice agentsthey have a folio. A federal agent,
they have a folio which like alittle wallet and it has a seal
(09:39):
in it of sort. Yeah youget not like so you get them at
party city? Is that where youget all your federal badges? Yes?
So is this this is a federaloffense? Would this be? I guess?
Oh yeah, oh yeah. Andthey're being held mid out bail.
Okay. Los Angeles firefighter was severelyin in an explosion yesterday afternoon. His
(10:01):
cruise battled a brush fire near whatseems to be a homeless encampment there at
the Supulvita Basin. He was airliftedto Northridge to a Northridge hospital and listed
in serious but stable condition. Yeah, considering it came from a homeless encampment
and there was an explosion. Itwas the first thing that comes to mind.
Pro paint tank. Oh yeah,I can't imagine anything else, trash
(10:26):
cad fire that wouldn't explode. Ohyeah, yeah, So that's if that's
the case, it's just more horriblestuff coming out of the lack of homeless
encampments are so much fun, allright. So a judge got a little
heated. There's some heated moments inthe case involving the classified documents Donald Trump's
(10:48):
classified Documents case. A judge reprimandeda prosecutor from Council Jacksmith's office because apparently
she said, I don't appreciate yourtone when he he appeared to get exasperated
when she questioned the need to modifyTrump's conditions of release. This is all
involving Trump's false claims that the FBIagents were prepared to kill him while they
(11:11):
were executing a twenty twenty two searchwarrant at his Mar A Lago estate.
Yeah, this is what Trump tendsto do. This is a playbook that
the FBI has anytime there was asearch warrant, and they have to follow
all the rules, and it's whencan you engage in lethal force? Only
when and then there are a wholebunch of rules. So what Trump said
(11:33):
is, see they're bringing in andhear why they're going to kill me,
why they wanted to kill me?And thank goodness, I wasn't there.
I was in New York. Imean, crazy stuff. But that would
be across the board for anybody,everybody, everybody, they all have the
same playbook. Yeah, but itclearly shows the FBI was out to kill
him. The other thing is thisjudge is so pro Trump giving him every
(11:56):
single thing that the defense attorneys want. There is as long as she is
holding this, there will never bea trial. It's already been delayed too,
but it's been indefinitely. There's notrial because she is granting every motion
that the defense is asking for.Uh, is it change? China's Change
(12:24):
six Moon mission returns to Earth withit's historic far sight samples, So on
the other side of the moon,getting no samples, bringing them back and
we'll find out whether it's cheese ornot. I'm anxious, Yeah, you
know, I want to know.Hey, you know, but the far
side of the Moon is sort ofmade of the same stuff that the near
side of the moon is. Butit doesn't get light. No, it
(12:46):
doesn't get light, but it's Yeah, maybe it's different. Maybe there's tires
up, maybe and change. Idon't know. I did what it's shun?
Yeah, I don't know what doesa stand for? Orange chicken?
I have no idea. I loveany story we're ever going to do about
the moon or space just for therecord, Yeah, I'm such a nerd
(13:07):
for those stories. So, oh, we're going to find out if anything
there they're going to go. It'sjust dirt, rock dust. Yeah,
I see pretty much what we've alwaysknown, all right. The LA Sheriff's
Outreach Program is offering support for thehomeless population in the Rosemead area. The
LA County Sheriff's Apartment is working withseveral agencies and they went out to the
streets to connect with unhoused people tooffer shelter and services to them. They
(13:33):
also had a Los Angeles Center forDrug and Alcohol Abuse program with them in
an effort to provide support and mentalhealth services. Yeah. So if your
mentally health mentally ill, and youare starving or having a real problem medical
issues and no place to live,get homeless because then you're going to get
services. Don't work and make aminimum wage because you're going to get nothing.
(13:58):
But you want to be homeless becauseA yeah, I mean, yes,
I have no problem with homeless peoplegetting services, but the only way
to really deal with homeless is unlimitedservices. And every dime that we pay
in taxes goes to the homeless issue. Every dime. Nothing less for cops
or fire departments. Nothing. That'sthe scariest thing I've ever heard. You
(14:22):
won't stay. It's not a homelessproblem, it's a mental problem. It's
a drug problem. You take careof your vets, of course, you
put your take care of your vets, you take care of families in need,
and then the others need to gointo an institution. Consider, I
mean, look at this. Howmany homeless people are vets A big percentage,
(14:43):
mentally ill virtually well, huge percentage. Yeah, the ones that are
just out of work a small percent. This is not a leg up situation,
which is why the money issue isnot helping. They say there's seven
over seventy five thousand unhoused people inLa County. Yeah, it's it's crazy.
That's an insane amount of and themore money we throw at it,
the more the bigger the number ofhomeless. It's like Disneyland. The more
(15:09):
money Disneyland charges, the more crowdedit gets. Why is that? What
is that about? Asked Neil andAmy. They're the ones that are nuts
because it's the best value on theplanet. And even if they double the
prices, it's still you cannot findthat all in one place anywhere else.
That's true. I mean you're right, you're right standing in line four hours
for three minute, right, Itis not like that. Why do you
(15:33):
hate the mouse? The mouse isgood, The mouse will save you.
Well, actually, I once hadthe mouse will bring you happy. I
once worked for the mouse and thatlasted all but two minutes. No,
No, that worked for Were youin the cost one of the costumes?
Yeah? I was in. Yeah, I'm in the costume I'm wearing now.
No. I had a very badtelevision show, Cindy Ke Television.
(15:56):
I forgot about it. Yeah,and it worked for work for Disney.
Well. I am with Amy andNeil. I am a big Disney fan.
I am too. I love Disney. I think they're brilliant at what
they do. Why aren't we broadcastingfrom their live every day, because this
is because you still handle who wantshim. He's the antithesis of Walt Oh
(16:18):
the humanity. South Korea spotted anotherthree hundred and fifty North Korean balloons,
again presumed to be carrying waste thatwould be human, that is black gold.
And this was just yesterday, andthis is reigniting that tit for tat
(16:38):
exchange the due to the tension thereon the Korean I don't think this connects
directly to a nuclear exchange. Whenyou're crat balloons, I'd rather you just
wipe me off the face of theearth than keep dumping poop on me.
But you know what, war ashell bill, Even when it's would this
be cold or lightly warm war?It depends. It's a time issue.
(17:03):
Yeah, but that is such aweird thing. Like adults, like adults
with power, are going fill theballoons with poop and send them over wow
balloon. All right. Russia hassome ic C issues or excuse me ic
C issues, war crimes arrest forOh boy, I'm gonna I'm gonna butcher
(17:25):
these names Shoygu and Gassimo. Yeahyeah, okay, serge and all right,
they're star wars names they really,So they issued these warrants here for
(17:45):
alleged international crimes and war crimes againsthumanity. The court said they were allegedly
responsible for directing attacks at civilian objectsand causing excessive incidental harm to civilians or
damage to civilian objects. They're alsoaccused of committing crimes against humanity. Do
you know that the ic C isat International Criminal Court and it's established by
(18:08):
Treaty one hundred and thirty something nationsare there? You know who is not
a member of the ICC? TheUnited States, Russia, China, Israel,
Israel. Yeah, and they're notbecause these guys issue these arrest warrants
and what the United States is goingto and they have no power, by
the way, to arrest the ICY. So these are the not cool kids.
(18:29):
Yes, trying pretty much pretty much. That's why the name of their
organization is it. Yeah. TheUnited States has been hit with war crime
allegations ever since the Vietnam War.I don't think the ICC was around that
long, but the allegation Israel getsnailed for any kind of international commission,
it just doesn't belong to say.Okay, you know, the big mauzle
(18:52):
tough to you. Well, Idon't know. All those big countries go
over and say, hey, listen, we want to talk. Yeah,
why don't you stop this barking.You're giving us a headache. This is
a crazy story. Doesn't help allthose conspiracy theories. Temporary election worker in
Arizona was arrested on Saturday because whatthey believe, this person was stealing a
(19:15):
security fob and the keys from theMaricopa County Tabulation and Election Center. So
that means, you know, beingable to access some of the voting equipment
or something. But kind of makesunless you are a Republican, and it
shows that this person is part ofthe conspiracy to take away. If this
(19:40):
person is a Democrat, then itis part of the conspiracy in terms of
stealing the election. If this purposonis a Republican, then this works.
Then the security worked because even withthis, it's all politics. It's even
with this, it's all accusations backand forth, and it's gone crazy.
It doesn't matter what it is.I mean, well, like them,
so the system works. Yeah,well yeah, that's true, except if
(20:04):
it's a Democrat. It just showedthey caught them. But it just shows
how pervasive the stealing of elections areOh, here's the story. So in
the state of Texas, their heartbeatlaw was supposed to help save lives.
That's how they kind of pitched itto help save lives. But actually now
(20:26):
it appears to be triggering an increasein infant deaths according to a new study
and in the Journal of American Pediatrics. So infant deaths are on the rise
in Texas after the Senate Bill eightbanned all abortions about after about six weeks
of conception. Yeah, last nighton the NBC News, there were a
(20:47):
group of women that were interviewed,all of them who tried to get abortions
and couldn't in Texas because there wasstill a heartbeat with the fetus and therefore
it's illegal to perform an abortion.And one of them was rendered infertile.
The other one, Canberry, cameclose to dying. One of them had
to deliver a baby that died withintwo days afterwards, and everybody knew it.
(21:11):
And this is you know, Idon't have a problem with the anti
abortion people doing this as a matterof belief that they believe that life is
sacricaying. I understand that position.That one makes sense I may disagree with
that, but there is a moralbasis for that. I get it the
fact that no abortion is a healthissue for women. We're trying to save
(21:34):
women's lives by not allowing abortion,which is completely contradictory to the medical science.
Abortion is one of the safest medicalprocedures that exist. Childbirth is far
more dangerous statistically than abortion. Sostop this health of the of the mother
(21:55):
crappo leg So what are we lookingat here? Does that mean that says
these bag these were brought to term? Yeah they died anyway. No,
they had no they had an anomalywhere they would die and the women want
would abord. Normal people would veryrarely would people deliver a baby that has
an anomaly such that it would notsurvive after delivery. This is more babies
(22:21):
died before their first birthday, likelydue to birth effects and genetic problems that
wouldn't have allowed them to live.And in Texas, you cannot abort those
kids. You have to bring thebaby to term. Can you imagine what
it does to a woman to delivera baby and have it die, or
deliver a baby that is you know, has such serious birth effects or has
(22:47):
such a serious of tasse acts,for example, with the Jewish population or
sickle cell anemia, where it's traditionallyblack people. A black Yeah, it's
a black disease. Tax is aJewish oscronage, Jewish disease, and you
die, kids die. It's likeone hundred percent fatal kind of a disease.
(23:07):
Texas, well, don't worry aboutit. They're no orthodoxys in Texas,
so it doesn't make any difference.Okay. The Supreme Court yesterday declined
to hear an appeal from the formerreality TV star Josh Is it Duger?
I think it's Duger. It's notDuggart. I think it is it's Dugger?
Is it? I vaguely remember theShuggers? Uh. He asked the
(23:29):
justices to toss out the child pornographyconviction. He was part of the show
on TLC nineteen Kids and Counting.He was sentenced to more than twelve years
in prison after he was convicted ofreceiving and possessing child pornography. So he
says that a former employee who hada prior sex offense conviction may have been
(23:52):
responsible. Yes, we're responsible forthis, the court, No, there's
no connection. That doesn't work thatway got you, Josh Duggery, Hea,
there is that dad, the dadthat's a brother, that's one okay,
And this was what the Dunder family. Nineteen kids in counting. Yes,
this is one of the things thatI always I'm saying, find it
(24:15):
interesting not fun? Is that,as you say, who sentenced to more
than twelve years in prison devout Christianon the show? For some reason,
it just hits you more when there'sa devout Christian. Well, yeah,
if you're separating yourself from and it'snot that they're you know, talking about
(24:36):
perfection. Christians aren't perfect any way, shape or form. Get a child
porno case in there. Well,they actually are changing the name of the
show to nineteen Counts and Counting,very strong, very strong that a goodwin,
Yes, lazinga all right. Lawenforcement is spying on us through the
US mail. Apparently. The USPostals Serve is always has been known for
(25:02):
sharing information from thousands of American lettersand packages with law enforcement, everything from
names, addresses, and other detailsthat are on the outside of the boxes
and the envelopes without requiring a courtorder. They do this to help with
investigations and crimes and things like that. What an interesting question because is there
an anticipation of privacy? Is ita violation of your privacy? For the
(25:27):
US Post Office to open mail wouldbe illegal, of course, But this
is on the outside of the envelope. No, how could you assume that's
private because you're delivering it to thepost Office. It is a mail carrier
and it delivers to a specific individualor a specific company. But I think
to your point is anybody at thepost Office can see it. It is
(25:51):
a document that anybody just has tolook on. And what if you put
it on your outside of your mailbox. Well, that's why I use a
PO box for anything that I'm notmailing, like family specific. I'm a
big fan of the PO box forif you want extra privacy in something you're
mailing. Wow, yeah, drugdealer, there you go. Yeah,
did I just out myself? Yeah? Right? And I prefer to only
(26:12):
work in cash. And they're notarguing that illegal, we're not bringing that
up right. What they're saying isthis is happening. It's and is And
at this point of course, thesecivil libertarians are saying, oh no,
no, no, no, ButI don't think that's going to go any
place. I mean, thousands ofletters. Yeah, yeah, yeah,
(26:33):
and it's just a request. TheFBI or law enforcement is looking at someone
investigates and say, who are theysending stuff to. Let's look at the
other person. Get it digitally.They have our retinas blown up and you
know, and have every part ofour DNA. And then we're worried about
the analog mail going through and theproblems they're in. All right, So
(26:53):
Moscow yesterday warned of consequences. Ofcourse they always do for we here in
America, as it accused Washington ofbeing involved in deadly strikes on Russian occupied
Crimea. And this would be donewith US made rockets, of course,
and that makes Russia mad, Russiasmash. You know, it's a lot
(27:15):
of this crossing the line in thesand. This is a Putin had said
if US fo if US arms areused to help Ukraine's that we will we
consider that an act of war,something along those lines. And that was
a line completely ignored. Now there, Now he's screaming again the US Joe
Biden, if Israel goes into Ramalaor Raffa, not Ramala Rafa, then
(27:41):
that's a line in the sand.Well they did, and okay, we're
going to back up. Obama didthat too. Now are you telling me
politicians bend the truth or how muchthe truth? It's just the back track.
Yeah, backtrack, I think ismore like it. We do it
one more. We are Oh,thank goodness space. A family in Florida
(28:04):
is suing NASA after space debris crashedthrough their home. They are apparently really
upset because it was a two poundcylindrical object that was part of a jettison's
palate used from batteries from the InternationalSpace Station. It crashed through their home
and their son was home, andnow they're suing. Yeah. Now,
(28:27):
because I don't think a lot ofthis has happened. You don't see a
lot of these lawsuits. But myquestion is, does that mean that every
time any kind of debris from aUS satellite or US spacecraft crashes into someone
home they get to sue? Yes? Yeah, right. However, let
me ask you you would think thatif NASA had to pay up every time?
(28:48):
Is that simply the cost of doingbusiness? What if someone is killed?
Or do you say once it comesfrom space, which is international and
it comes down, there's immunity there? I think with your if you're an
agency, an organization that's putting somethingup in space and it still causes harm
to somebody here on Earth, you'restill responsible for. I don't know.
I don't know. I mean,we'll see what happened. They only want
(29:10):
eighty thousand dollars anyway, I mean, so that's yeah, to fix the
house. Yeah, yeah, tofix when no one was hurt. I
mean, I bet if they keepthe piece of space debris, it's probably
worth Yeah. Okay, that's youknow what, now you're talking. They
should be able to sell it oneBay. Get it to me. Yeah
too. Someone take someone's head off. That's a little different. Okay,

of you. Neil, good morning, good morning, Willie Wolf. Yeah,
and and good morning, good morning. Hey. I have a question,
(01:30):
and uh, we've got the iPadwhere we do the zoom calls.
We have anybody that we're zooming today? No, you feel lonely? What's
the problem? No, because alot of you know, Joel and a
few other people that come in,you know, do it from the house,
and you know, we everything's here'smonitors. I'm right here, except
(01:51):
you right here. Yeah, andexcept Dann right here. Okay, so
it's cono and in this case,uh, Heather, good morning, Cono
and Heather, good morning, goodmorning. All right. So Heather and
I were talking before we started theshow, and we're talking about July fourth,
and she she's filling in next weekfor Amy. And I asked Heather,
(02:15):
or I think she mentioned, areyou working July fourth? And of
course not. And then I askedHeather, are you working? And she
said, yes, I'm working.And what was my response to that?
Heather, you said, I amlow man on the totem pole, I
said, the food chain. Oh, okay, very low on the food
chain. That's what happens. I'mthe lowest of the low. I get
(02:35):
it. I know they're you knowwhat, they're may be lower people on
the food chain. Cono, areyou working touly fourth? Yes, Okay,
you're there, lower than Heather.Okay, Anne, are you working?
Yes? I am wow. Neil, are you working? I don't
know? Okay, I really,I genuinely don't. I don't think I
saw your name on the list.Okay, so probably not. Ok That's
(03:00):
so it's not only the joy ofenjoying July fourth. I mean, I
really like July fourth. I takeit reasonably serious, seriously, you know,
the establishment of the United States ofAmerica, that sort of thing.
But what makes it particularly enjoyable forme is you guys have to work.
(03:22):
That's one of my favorite holidays.Yeah, especially when you're sitting here four
o'clock in the morning. Now,there's a whole philosophy there that we have
shared. For example, I onlyhave poor friends, And why do I
only have poor friends so I canfeel richer? The last thing I need
is wealthy people as my friends.I don't need that. It's an esteem
(03:46):
issue, So hang out with poorpeople. You feel great? Why staring
at me? You know, Ionly hang out with a holes so I
feel better about myself. So that'swhy we're friends. So there you go.
Okay, so much for that,and we'll do today. No,
I'm just thinking. I was talkingto Lindsey as matter of fact, and
(04:12):
it used to be that people thathang out flags in front of their house
July fourth particularly, were just peoplethat enjoyed July fourth. They yeah,
they Okay. Now you immediately assumeit's a Trump is different. Yeah,
isn't it. It's don't give itup. Don't give up the flag.
The flag is for everyone has changedits whole The flag is forever reason.
(04:39):
Now that is just a question,is that person a Trump is? Who
is displaying a flag? Because asyou're right, what if it's I'm not.
I take great pride in my father, whose parents came here from Mexico,
made a big point of flying ourflag and explaining to me as a
(05:00):
young child and the importance of itand the pride that surrounds it. And
I've taken that is one of thefirst things I did when I bought a
house was put up a a holdera flag for a flag. Yeah.
Uh. Samuel Alito has a flagpole in front of his because of all
the flags they have to fly.Yeah. But in general. You see
(05:23):
flags, wife puts it like sixof them. You're so this is grandparents
that came in for me, Yes, from one on one. But those
days the trunks of cars were notthat big, were they Did they both
come in at the same time?Uh? My knowledge is they came legally
but didn't stay legally. So mygrandfather went back. My grandfather went back
(05:44):
and died in Mexico. That washis home. My grandmother said since she
had children here, that she wasstaying. And my understanding is that she
stayed illegally. Do you know whoelse? And I saw the other day
a pickup truck, you know,raised pickup truck with a giant wheels that
you know you have to use aladder to get into them. And I
knew that was a Trump a Trumpist, because again even those you think for
(06:12):
some reason now are trump iss.It's just by the way, the fact
that he had a six foot flagflying that's on it. Yeah, you
can't give up the flag. Asfar as the American flag, that's for
everybody. But as far as theuh, raised trucks, yeah, I
think you can give those to thetrump Yeah, those pretty I think that's
a pretty good call. Yeah,okay, guys, let's do it handle
(06:34):
on the news with Heather and Neiland me lead Storry. There's a side
God. Juliassans going back to Australiaafter twelve years of fighting it fighting coming
the United States, the extradition.The US has asked for extradition because Wiki
(06:55):
leaks. Uh. Of course,all of those secrets, those top classified,
those highly classified, top secret documentsregarding the war in Iraq and Afghanistan,
et cetera, those were all releasedand he got nailed. They issued
a they issued a warrant for hisarrest. And he's been fighting him for
twelve years. He was an ecuadorat the Ecuadorian embassy in England for what
(07:19):
five years or eight years? Yeah, and they kicked him out you know
that. They finally kicked him outbecause he was such an a hole.
He was so obnoxious, he wouldn'tbathe Yeah, I heard. He was
filthy, filthy and so rude toeverybody there that they just they couldn't do
it. They gave him Ecuadorian citizenshipand then took it back. What a
(07:46):
guy. Anyway, they showed himthe Ecuador Yeah, it's very strong.
Yeah, so it was interesting guy. Anyway, he cut a deal going
back to Australia. The US.He's going to He's going to go to
a US territory and he is goingto plead guilty, but the judge is
going to give him exactly the sentencefor time served. So he's a free
(08:09):
man. He's walking back to Australiaall right. Teens pretending to be ICE
agents robbed Hispanic people. Two ofthem pretended to be allegedly pretended to be
federal law enforcement agents, so theytargeted Hispanic people in Orange County. Both
nineteen year olds were arrested five hoursafter a pair of robberies in Anaheim,
(08:31):
and apparently they were approaching the victims, identified themselves as Immigration and Customs Enforcement
ICE agents, demanded cash and thenfled in a blue OUDI. You know,
when you think about this, theseare nineteen year old kids that are
going up to people who are illegalhere, and at first glance, you
(08:52):
go, come on, how doyou think a nineteen year old? Are
you that dumb that a nineteen yearold? But are what it really says,
these people are so vulnerable and sofrightened. Yes, that even this
kind of level of craziness in termsof a nineteen year old. If some
nineteen year old came up to you, you and said, hey, I
want money, you pay me orI'm picking you up. Who you know
(09:16):
you're nineteen or you're twenty, oryou're you look like a teenager, or
you look like a twenty three yearold, leave me alone. Well,
apparently they were using some sort ofbadge that looked, you know, kind
of real, So people were youknow, Yeah, those badges aren't hard
to get, and most ice agentsthey have a folio. A federal agent,
they have a folio which like alittle wallet and it has a seal
(09:39):
in it of sort. Yeah youget not like so you get them at
party city? Is that where youget all your federal badges? Yes?
So is this this is a federaloffense? Would this be? I guess?
Oh yeah, oh yeah. Andthey're being held mid out bail.
Okay. Los Angeles firefighter was severelyin in an explosion yesterday afternoon. His
(10:01):
cruise battled a brush fire near whatseems to be a homeless encampment there at
the Supulvita Basin. He was airliftedto Northridge to a Northridge hospital and listed
in serious but stable condition. Yeah, considering it came from a homeless encampment
and there was an explosion. Itwas the first thing that comes to mind.
Pro paint tank. Oh yeah,I can't imagine anything else, trash
(10:26):
cad fire that wouldn't explode. Ohyeah, yeah, So that's if that's
the case, it's just more horriblestuff coming out of the lack of homeless
encampments are so much fun, allright. So a judge got a little
heated. There's some heated moments inthe case involving the classified documents Donald Trump's
(10:48):
classified Documents case. A judge reprimandeda prosecutor from Council Jacksmith's office because apparently
she said, I don't appreciate yourtone when he he appeared to get exasperated
when she questioned the need to modifyTrump's conditions of release. This is all
involving Trump's false claims that the FBIagents were prepared to kill him while they
(11:11):
were executing a twenty twenty two searchwarrant at his Mar A Lago estate.
Yeah, this is what Trump tendsto do. This is a playbook that
the FBI has anytime there was asearch warrant, and they have to follow
all the rules, and it's whencan you engage in lethal force? Only
when and then there are a wholebunch of rules. So what Trump said
(11:33):
is, see they're bringing in andhear why they're going to kill me,
why they wanted to kill me?And thank goodness, I wasn't there.
I was in New York. Imean, crazy stuff. But that would
be across the board for anybody,everybody, everybody, they all have the
same playbook. Yeah, but itclearly shows the FBI was out to kill
him. The other thing is thisjudge is so pro Trump giving him every
(11:56):
single thing that the defense attorneys want. There is as long as she is
holding this, there will never bea trial. It's already been delayed too,
but it's been indefinitely. There's notrial because she is granting every motion
that the defense is asking for.Uh, is it change? China's Change
(12:24):
six Moon mission returns to Earth withit's historic far sight samples, So on
the other side of the moon,getting no samples, bringing them back and
we'll find out whether it's cheese ornot. I'm anxious, Yeah, you
know, I want to know.Hey, you know, but the far
side of the Moon is sort ofmade of the same stuff that the near
side of the moon is. Butit doesn't get light. No, it
(12:46):
doesn't get light, but it's Yeah, maybe it's different. Maybe there's tires
up, maybe and change. Idon't know. I did what it's shun?
Yeah, I don't know what doesa stand for? Orange chicken?
I have no idea. I loveany story we're ever going to do about
the moon or space just for therecord, Yeah, I'm such a nerd
(13:07):
for those stories. So, oh, we're going to find out if anything
there they're going to go. It'sjust dirt, rock dust. Yeah,
I see pretty much what we've alwaysknown, all right. The LA Sheriff's
Outreach Program is offering support for thehomeless population in the Rosemead area. The
LA County Sheriff's Apartment is working withseveral agencies and they went out to the
streets to connect with unhoused people tooffer shelter and services to them. They
(13:33):
also had a Los Angeles Center forDrug and Alcohol Abuse program with them in
an effort to provide support and mentalhealth services. Yeah. So if your
mentally health mentally ill, and youare starving or having a real problem medical
issues and no place to live,get homeless because then you're going to get
services. Don't work and make aminimum wage because you're going to get nothing.
(13:58):
But you want to be homeless becauseA yeah, I mean, yes,
I have no problem with homeless peoplegetting services, but the only way
to really deal with homeless is unlimitedservices. And every dime that we pay
in taxes goes to the homeless issue. Every dime. Nothing less for cops
or fire departments. Nothing. That'sthe scariest thing I've ever heard. You
(14:22):
won't stay. It's not a homelessproblem, it's a mental problem. It's
a drug problem. You take careof your vets, of course, you
put your take care of your vets, you take care of families in need,
and then the others need to gointo an institution. Consider, I
mean, look at this. Howmany homeless people are vets A big percentage,
(14:43):
mentally ill virtually well, huge percentage. Yeah, the ones that are
just out of work a small percent. This is not a leg up situation,
which is why the money issue isnot helping. They say there's seven
over seventy five thousand unhoused people inLa County. Yeah, it's it's crazy.
That's an insane amount of and themore money we throw at it,
the more the bigger the number ofhomeless. It's like Disneyland. The more
(15:09):
money Disneyland charges, the more crowdedit gets. Why is that? What
is that about? Asked Neil andAmy. They're the ones that are nuts
because it's the best value on theplanet. And even if they double the
prices, it's still you cannot findthat all in one place anywhere else.
That's true. I mean you're right, you're right standing in line four hours
for three minute, right, Itis not like that. Why do you
(15:33):
hate the mouse? The mouse isgood, The mouse will save you.
Well, actually, I once hadthe mouse will bring you happy. I
once worked for the mouse and thatlasted all but two minutes. No,
No, that worked for Were youin the cost one of the costumes?
Yeah? I was in. Yeah, I'm in the costume I'm wearing now.
No. I had a very badtelevision show, Cindy Ke Television.
(15:56):
I forgot about it. Yeah,and it worked for work for Disney.
Well. I am with Amy andNeil. I am a big Disney fan.
I am too. I love Disney. I think they're brilliant at what
they do. Why aren't we broadcastingfrom their live every day, because this
is because you still handle who wantshim. He's the antithesis of Walt Oh
(16:18):
the humanity. South Korea spotted anotherthree hundred and fifty North Korean balloons,
again presumed to be carrying waste thatwould be human, that is black gold.
And this was just yesterday, andthis is reigniting that tit for tat
(16:38):
exchange the due to the tension thereon the Korean I don't think this connects
directly to a nuclear exchange. Whenyou're crat balloons, I'd rather you just
wipe me off the face of theearth than keep dumping poop on me.
But you know what, war ashell bill, Even when it's would this
be cold or lightly warm war?It depends. It's a time issue.
(17:03):
Yeah, but that is such aweird thing. Like adults, like adults
with power, are going fill theballoons with poop and send them over wow
balloon. All right. Russia hassome ic C issues or excuse me ic
C issues, war crimes arrest forOh boy, I'm gonna I'm gonna butcher
(17:25):
these names Shoygu and Gassimo. Yeahyeah, okay, serge and all right,
they're star wars names they really,So they issued these warrants here for
(17:45):
alleged international crimes and war crimes againsthumanity. The court said they were allegedly
responsible for directing attacks at civilian objectsand causing excessive incidental harm to civilians or
damage to civilian objects. They're alsoaccused of committing crimes against humanity. Do
you know that the ic C isat International Criminal Court and it's established by
(18:08):
Treaty one hundred and thirty something nationsare there? You know who is not
a member of the ICC? TheUnited States, Russia, China, Israel,
Israel. Yeah, and they're notbecause these guys issue these arrest warrants
and what the United States is goingto and they have no power, by
the way, to arrest the ICY. So these are the not cool kids.
(18:29):
Yes, trying pretty much pretty much. That's why the name of their
organization is it. Yeah. TheUnited States has been hit with war crime
allegations ever since the Vietnam War.I don't think the ICC was around that
long, but the allegation Israel getsnailed for any kind of international commission,
it just doesn't belong to say.Okay, you know, the big mauzle
(18:52):
tough to you. Well, Idon't know. All those big countries go
over and say, hey, listen, we want to talk. Yeah,
why don't you stop this barking.You're giving us a headache. This is
a crazy story. Doesn't help allthose conspiracy theories. Temporary election worker in
Arizona was arrested on Saturday because whatthey believe, this person was stealing a
(19:15):
security fob and the keys from theMaricopa County Tabulation and Election Center. So
that means, you know, beingable to access some of the voting equipment
or something. But kind of makesunless you are a Republican, and it
shows that this person is part ofthe conspiracy to take away. If this
(19:40):
person is a Democrat, then itis part of the conspiracy in terms of
stealing the election. If this purposonis a Republican, then this works.
Then the security worked because even withthis, it's all politics. It's even
with this, it's all accusations backand forth, and it's gone crazy.
It doesn't matter what it is.I mean, well, like them,
so the system works. Yeah,well yeah, that's true, except if
(20:04):
it's a Democrat. It just showedthey caught them. But it just shows
how pervasive the stealing of elections areOh, here's the story. So in
the state of Texas, their heartbeatlaw was supposed to help save lives.
That's how they kind of pitched itto help save lives. But actually now
(20:26):
it appears to be triggering an increasein infant deaths according to a new study
and in the Journal of American Pediatrics. So infant deaths are on the rise
in Texas after the Senate Bill eightbanned all abortions about after about six weeks
of conception. Yeah, last nighton the NBC News, there were a
(20:47):
group of women that were interviewed,all of them who tried to get abortions
and couldn't in Texas because there wasstill a heartbeat with the fetus and therefore
it's illegal to perform an abortion.And one of them was rendered infertile.
The other one, Canberry, cameclose to dying. One of them had
to deliver a baby that died withintwo days afterwards, and everybody knew it.
(21:11):
And this is you know, Idon't have a problem with the anti
abortion people doing this as a matterof belief that they believe that life is
sacricaying. I understand that position.That one makes sense I may disagree with
that, but there is a moralbasis for that. I get it the
fact that no abortion is a healthissue for women. We're trying to save
(21:34):
women's lives by not allowing abortion,which is completely contradictory to the medical science.
Abortion is one of the safest medicalprocedures that exist. Childbirth is far
more dangerous statistically than abortion. Sostop this health of the of the mother
(21:55):
crappo leg So what are we lookingat here? Does that mean that says
these bag these were brought to term? Yeah they died anyway. No,
they had no they had an anomalywhere they would die and the women want
would abord. Normal people would veryrarely would people deliver a baby that has
an anomaly such that it would notsurvive after delivery. This is more babies
(22:21):
died before their first birthday, likelydue to birth effects and genetic problems that
wouldn't have allowed them to live.And in Texas, you cannot abort those
kids. You have to bring thebaby to term. Can you imagine what
it does to a woman to delivera baby and have it die, or
deliver a baby that is you know, has such serious birth effects or has
(22:47):
such a serious of tasse acts,for example, with the Jewish population or
sickle cell anemia, where it's traditionallyblack people. A black Yeah, it's
a black disease. Tax is aJewish oscronage, Jewish disease, and you
die, kids die. It's likeone hundred percent fatal kind of a disease.
(23:07):
Texas, well, don't worry aboutit. They're no orthodoxys in Texas,
so it doesn't make any difference.Okay. The Supreme Court yesterday declined
to hear an appeal from the formerreality TV star Josh Is it Duger?
I think it's Duger. It's notDuggart. I think it is it's Dugger?
Is it? I vaguely remember theShuggers? Uh. He asked the
(23:29):
justices to toss out the child pornographyconviction. He was part of the show
on TLC nineteen Kids and Counting.He was sentenced to more than twelve years
in prison after he was convicted ofreceiving and possessing child pornography. So he
says that a former employee who hada prior sex offense conviction may have been
(23:52):
responsible. Yes, we're responsible forthis, the court, No, there's
no connection. That doesn't work thatway got you, Josh Duggery, Hea,
there is that dad, the dadthat's a brother, that's one okay,
And this was what the Dunder family. Nineteen kids in counting. Yes,
this is one of the things thatI always I'm saying, find it
(24:15):
interesting not fun? Is that,as you say, who sentenced to more
than twelve years in prison devout Christianon the show? For some reason,
it just hits you more when there'sa devout Christian. Well, yeah,
if you're separating yourself from and it'snot that they're you know, talking about
(24:36):
perfection. Christians aren't perfect any way, shape or form. Get a child
porno case in there. Well,they actually are changing the name of the
show to nineteen Counts and Counting,very strong, very strong that a goodwin,
Yes, lazinga all right. Lawenforcement is spying on us through the
US mail. Apparently. The USPostals Serve is always has been known for
(25:02):
sharing information from thousands of American lettersand packages with law enforcement, everything from
names, addresses, and other detailsthat are on the outside of the boxes
and the envelopes without requiring a courtorder. They do this to help with
investigations and crimes and things like that. What an interesting question because is there
an anticipation of privacy? Is ita violation of your privacy? For the
(25:27):
US Post Office to open mail wouldbe illegal, of course, But this
is on the outside of the envelope. No, how could you assume that's
private because you're delivering it to thepost Office. It is a mail carrier
and it delivers to a specific individualor a specific company. But I think
to your point is anybody at thepost Office can see it. It is
(25:51):
a document that anybody just has tolook on. And what if you put
it on your outside of your mailbox. Well, that's why I use a
PO box for anything that I'm notmailing, like family specific. I'm a
big fan of the PO box forif you want extra privacy in something you're
mailing. Wow, yeah, drugdealer, there you go. Yeah,
did I just out myself? Yeah? Right? And I prefer to only
(26:12):
work in cash. And they're notarguing that illegal, we're not bringing that
up right. What they're saying isthis is happening. It's and is And
at this point of course, thesecivil libertarians are saying, oh no,
no, no, no, ButI don't think that's going to go any
place. I mean, thousands ofletters. Yeah, yeah, yeah,
(26:33):
and it's just a request. TheFBI or law enforcement is looking at someone
investigates and say, who are theysending stuff to. Let's look at the
other person. Get it digitally.They have our retinas blown up and you
know, and have every part ofour DNA. And then we're worried about
the analog mail going through and theproblems they're in. All right, So
(26:53):
Moscow yesterday warned of consequences. Ofcourse they always do for we here in
America, as it accused Washington ofbeing involved in deadly strikes on Russian occupied
Crimea. And this would be donewith US made rockets, of course,
and that makes Russia mad, Russiasmash. You know, it's a lot
(27:15):
of this crossing the line in thesand. This is a Putin had said
if US fo if US arms areused to help Ukraine's that we will we
consider that an act of war,something along those lines. And that was
a line completely ignored. Now there, Now he's screaming again the US Joe
Biden, if Israel goes into Ramalaor Raffa, not Ramala Rafa, then
(27:41):
that's a line in the sand.Well they did, and okay, we're
going to back up. Obama didthat too. Now are you telling me
politicians bend the truth or how muchthe truth? It's just the back track.
Yeah, backtrack, I think ismore like it. We do it
one more. We are Oh,thank goodness space. A family in Florida
(28:04):
is suing NASA after space debris crashedthrough their home. They are apparently really
upset because it was a two poundcylindrical object that was part of a jettison's
palate used from batteries from the InternationalSpace Station. It crashed through their home
and their son was home, andnow they're suing. Yeah. Now,
(28:27):
because I don't think a lot ofthis has happened. You don't see a
lot of these lawsuits. But myquestion is, does that mean that every
time any kind of debris from aUS satellite or US spacecraft crashes into someone
home they get to sue? Yes? Yeah, right. However, let
me ask you you would think thatif NASA had to pay up every time?
(28:48):
Is that simply the cost of doingbusiness? What if someone is killed?
Or do you say once it comesfrom space, which is international and
it comes down, there's immunity there? I think with your if you're an
agency, an organization that's putting somethingup in space and it still causes harm
to somebody here on Earth, you'restill responsible for. I don't know.
I don't know. I mean,we'll see what happened. They only want
(29:10):
eighty thousand dollars anyway, I mean, so that's yeah, to fix the
house. Yeah, yeah, tofix when no one was hurt. I
mean, I bet if they keepthe piece of space debris, it's probably
worth Yeah. Okay, that's youknow what, now you're talking. They
should be able to sell it oneBay. Get it to me. Yeah
too. Someone take someone's head off. That's a little different. Okay,
