Speaker 2 (00:40):
Good morning everybody.
Speaker 3 (00:41):
It is a Monday morning, November eleventh, Veterans Day, as
we celebrate and honor the veterans who have served the
United States, prickly, those who have given their lives for
their country. And it's wonderful to see veterans.
Speaker 2 (00:57):
Actually being honored.
Speaker 3 (00:58):
There was a time during the Vietnam conflict and I
was around. I was a teenager during those times. As
a matter of fact, I was in the draft ages.
When you had veterans coming back and they could not
wear their uniform in public.
Speaker 4 (01:14):
They would be spit on.
Speaker 2 (01:16):
And it was like their fault. It was it was
a service member's fault that the fight in Vietnam was
going on.
Speaker 3 (01:24):
So we're back to honoring our veterans, and we're moving
on our way back to honoring the police. And so
it's swinging back and it's wonderful to see reality hit
And in the meantime, I want everybody to well, the
whole point is, remember what happens. A lot of events
are going on today too, and Amy went through a
(01:45):
lot of them this morning.
Speaker 5 (01:46):
Hello Amy, Good morning Bill.

Do you ever change your outfit? Kno? But to me, yeah, no,
it always looks the same to me.
Speaker 4 (02:04):
I mean I'm kind of like Homer Simpson. I kind
of buy the same black shirts.
Speaker 2 (02:07):
Yeah, you sort of do. That's true. That's true.
Speaker 3 (02:10):
And you're with the same kind of hat. I think
I've seen you without your hat on once.
Speaker 4 (02:14):
And strong hairline?
Speaker 2 (02:17):
That strong? But okay, Neil, Neil has a strong hairline.
Speaker 4 (02:20):

Speaker 2 (02:24):
So Neil, good morning to you.
Speaker 4 (02:25):
Good morning, Willie Wolf. How are you pale?
Speaker 2 (02:28):
I'm good.
Speaker 3 (02:28):
And we spent Saturday together at the event at wild Fork.
Speaker 4 (02:32):
And it were wildly kind.
Speaker 2 (02:34):
Well, it was really a good time and people came up.
Speaker 4 (02:37):
I know you don't like the love.
Speaker 6 (02:39):
But it was very cool of you, not only to
come out but stay, and people were so excited to
see you.
Speaker 4 (02:44):
It was neat.
Speaker 3 (02:46):
There were so many people that came up to me
and said, can I take a selfie?
Speaker 2 (02:51):
My mother, my father loves you. This is for my dad.
Speaker 3 (02:56):
And I say, well, how about you, Well, not so much.
I really don't listen to you. I listened to music,
but my dad said, while you're there, please take a
picture with you.
Speaker 4 (03:07):
I didn't get any of that.
Speaker 2 (03:09):
Yeah, I got a lot of that, believe me.
Speaker 4 (03:11):
I got to me yeah, yeah, yeah, I had women kisses.
Speaker 2 (03:16):
Yeah, and a couple of people came up.
Speaker 3 (03:18):
I was there when your babies were born twenty nine
years ago, when I was on the air, and I
made a pretty big deal my kids being born, strangely enough,
and that disappeared very quickly, by the way, and I
was there.
Speaker 5 (03:31):
Go.
Speaker 3 (03:32):
It was a very crowded delivery room. You know, there
were several thousand people there, and my kids appreciate that
they were doing the wave. Yeah, you know, here's this
is it, here's a story, all right. There was we're waiting.
He was a kaiser and my wife was obviously very pregnant,
with twins. She was huge and it was a C section,
(03:54):
so it's all scheduled.
Speaker 4 (03:56):
And she's not a big woman.
Speaker 2 (03:57):
She's no, she's not, but she was big with pregnancy.
Speaker 3 (04:01):
And so we're at Kaiser sunset and two gurney's roll
up and it just so happened. At the same time,
we're waiting for a delivery room in the r and
at the same time we roll and there was another
gal who was pregnant with her husband there who happened
to be an FM jock and I forgot what his
station was.
Speaker 2 (04:21):
It was some small station, and so we're both waiting.
Speaker 3 (04:25):
The or opens up and they start rolling this other
woman in and I start screaming, does anybody pay attention
to ratings around here?
Speaker 2 (04:38):
That's actually a true story.
Speaker 3 (04:40):
Oh boy, And it just so happened.
Speaker 6 (04:48):
Hey, what'd we lose you? Where'd you go? Your mic
is gone? Did you press a button?
Speaker 5 (04:55):
We don't hear you anymore?
Speaker 4 (04:56):
Bill, Bill, you're gone.
Speaker 5 (04:58):
He's still talking.
Speaker 4 (05:00):
Look at that. It's like our own little Biden.
Speaker 2 (05:05):
The cameras.
Speaker 3 (05:07):
Bill.
Speaker 5 (05:07):
We didn't hear anything you said for the last minute.
Speaker 6 (05:10):
Seriously, Yeah, yeah, what happened? Well, your hands were moving
and your lips were moving.
Speaker 2 (05:15):
But can you hear me now?
Speaker 5 (05:17):
Yeah?
Speaker 4 (05:17):
Yeah, wow, you.
Speaker 2 (05:18):
Know what happened.
Speaker 3 (05:18):
I spilled some coffee on my microphone.
Speaker 2 (05:23):
I actually spilled.
Speaker 3 (05:24):
Some call me on my my microphone on off switch,
so maybe that'll do it.
Speaker 2 (05:29):
Yeah, hopefully it drives off, so we'll see. Anyway, where
was I was allowed?
Speaker 5 (05:33):
You don't know.
Speaker 6 (05:34):
Well, basically after the rating situation, that was it?
Speaker 3 (05:38):
Oh all right, and everybody was it just happens in
the o R. When we got in, everybody was a fan.
The nurses and the texts and the doctors had listened
to my show and it was just And so I
came in looking like a bad Japanese tourist, cameras hanging
off my neck, a video and walking in and videoing everything,
and the tech would go, hey, go over here, this
(05:59):
is a better for you, and go over there, and
the doctor went nuts. You know, we understand that we
like mister handle, but it's missus hand all that's our patient.
Speaker 2 (06:10):
It was fabulous.
Speaker 4 (06:11):
So there it was, and you didn't stop them, No, God, no.
Speaker 3 (06:15):
Of course I took You know, the photos were much
much better than anything I've got.
Speaker 2 (06:18):
Great photos.
Speaker 4 (06:19):
The sea section is.
Speaker 5 (06:20):
Disgusting by the way you to pictures.
Speaker 3 (06:22):
Oh hi, yeah, hell yeah of a C section, Yeah yeah, yeah,
it looks like a they take the US spelled see
by the way, Yes, yes, it was candy Land.
Speaker 2 (06:34):
Yes.
Speaker 3 (06:34):
And the uterus looks like a football when they pop
it out and then they cut it open, and it's
just very interesting. Anyway, all right, uh, let's do it, guys,
it's time for a handle on the news on this
Monday morning, November eleventh, with Amy Neil and me lead story.
School District's investigating is investigating racist texts since the students
(07:04):
and if these texts are going across the country to
these horribly racist texts that are going across New York, Alabama, California,
here of course, Ohio.
Speaker 2 (07:15):
Pennsylvania, and say, oh, it's mean, so disgusting.
Speaker 3 (07:18):
It's line up, here's where you have to meet, bring
your possessions with you, and it's it's indicative or it's
I guess it looks like the way they were rounding
up Jews in Europe. Show up at this point and
we're going to transfer you. I mean, it's horrible. So anyways,
(07:39):
they're trying to figure out who's doing it, and.
Speaker 4 (07:42):
There's no way to trace this stuff.
Speaker 3 (07:44):
I'm assuming that they're investigating now, and they will, I mean,
eventually they'll trace it. But if someone's good, yeah, you
go from place to place to place, and you bought
them around. For example, money that's being transferred around the world,
and it goes from account to account to account. They
can't follow up on so.
Speaker 5 (08:03):
And the texts are personalized.
Speaker 4 (08:05):
That's yeah, the scary names. Yeah, that's anyone showed up.
I'd show up at the location with a bat, yeah,
or a gun. Well, I was trying to be a
little more subtle, but.
Speaker 2 (08:17):
Yeah, but no, I know you. You would not show up
with a bat.
Speaker 4 (08:21):
Wow, it'd be a special bat. Yeah.
Speaker 5 (08:25):
Hopefully neither Biden nor Trump will show up with a bat.
When they come to for a sit down at the
White House, it's scheduled and is going to meet. They're
going to be meeting in the Oval Office on Wednesday,
according to the White House. And then is it it's
not a first Lady elect, it's incoming First Lady Milania Trump.
(08:48):
We'll also be visiting the White House and meet with
First Lady Jill Biden on it.
Speaker 2 (08:52):
Yeah, that's traditional. It's just traditional.
Speaker 3 (08:54):
They're invited in although they don't have to show them
around because they've been there before, but it's traditional. And
then on the day of the inauguration, it'll be Biden
inviting the President Milania in.
Speaker 2 (09:05):
For a traditional like more a tee, sort.
Speaker 3 (09:08):
Of a morning something, and then they go to the
inauguration together, and that will happen. It did not happen
in twenty twenty, if you remember, but it's happening.
Speaker 2 (09:18):
Now, so we're back to sort of normal. I guess.
Speaker 4 (09:23):
Yeah.
Speaker 6 (09:24):
Maybe I just keep thinking of Biden as a little boy,
and he's gonna look at Trump. Go want to see
my room. These are my toys, These are my things.
Speaker 4 (09:34):
These are my things on.
Speaker 2 (09:35):
A ninety five year old little boy. Let's take a break.
Speaker 4 (09:38):
We'll be back. Maybe he'll show him his dog is
he don't touch him? He bites.
Speaker 2 (09:43):
Yeah, he'll take your arm off, all right.
Speaker 6 (09:46):
Everybody doing their preemptive strikes, trying to figure out how
they can Trump proof whatever they have in life. The
Los Angeles City Council voted to approve emotion just this
past Tuesday that would create an ordinary to make LA
a sanctuary city for undocumented immigrants and the law wood
ban federal immigration officials from accessing city databases, banned city
(10:11):
resources from being used for immigration enforcement, and the order.
This particular ordinance, by the way, was originally passed last year,
but it's been in this lengthy legal review and has
yet to take effect.
Speaker 4 (10:25):
So they're trying to push that through.
Speaker 3 (10:26):
Yeah, we've got an interesting four years now with the
Trump administration, especially California versus Trump, or Trump versus California,
and it's going to be quite a fight sanctuary cities.
Oh wow, I mean, just this is just the start
of it, just the tenuous little start of what's going
to go on.
Speaker 6 (10:44):
I'm not sure if the map maybe Amy has seen
it or and but the map of California in its
when you look at the counties and.
Speaker 5 (10:55):
Stuff, wellness and redness.
Speaker 6 (10:56):
Yeah, it looks like it looks like it's the reddest
I've ever seen.
Speaker 3 (11:01):
Yeah, except that those blues are the population. Yeah, that's
where everybody lives is in those blue areas. So you've
got fourteen million people in southern California or La City
of La we have four million or five million. Then
you have one of the red areas up there that
has six people living.
Speaker 6 (11:20):
The point was that some of the blue areas have
turned red.
Speaker 7 (11:24):
Not that they're you know, the bab I think the
blues are becoming more prominent than the reds.
Speaker 2 (11:30):
Although this election was really weird.
Speaker 3 (11:32):
I mean, you know, did anybody think that Trump was
going to take all seven battleground states?
Speaker 2 (11:36):
That anybody think that?
Speaker 4 (11:37):
No?
Speaker 3 (11:38):
And the popular vote and the popular vote on top
of that, I thought that president that Trump could very
well have won.
Speaker 2 (11:48):
I thought that was a coin flip.
Speaker 3 (11:49):
But I absolutely was going to convince that he was
not going to win the popular vote, and he took
the whole thing. You know, Welcome to America, and welcome
to the pollsters, and welcome to misreading where America wants
to be.
Speaker 6 (12:04):
Well, I'll tell you, I'm so upset, I'm shaving my
head and I will not sleep with a man.
Speaker 2 (12:10):
Excellent.
Speaker 3 (12:11):
And by the way, eight o'clock this morning, one of
the big issues is Latinos. Why they left Joe Biden
like they were there in twenty twenty and moved over
to Donald Trump. That's a hell of a story in
and of itself, and I'm going to do that coming
up at eight o'clock.
Speaker 5 (12:28):
Hey, I found one of those red blue, red blue
maps and like ninety percent of the country is red. Seriously,
except for.
Speaker 4 (12:37):
When you break it down in county in California.
Speaker 6 (12:40):
I was blown away at how much more red is
in California than I've ever seen.
Speaker 3 (12:45):
I understood, But you know, look at La County versus
Humboldt County. All right, You've got Humboldt County that has
I don't know, I don't know how many tens of
thousands of people La La County has what eight million,
nine million people, I guess, and Humble County it may
be read, but people there are too stoned to even
go vote.
Speaker 2 (13:04):
What crop do they produce? Marijuana?
Speaker 3 (13:08):
It's when they break it down like that, the country
is about fifty to fifty, with more registered Democrats in
the United States and Democrats than Republicans. But if you
look at the map and you look at the various states,
for sample, South Dakota is red, Okay, California is blue.
You really want to compare the two forty million versus
(13:29):
what two million, three million, and you've got one red,
one blue.
Speaker 2 (13:34):
Anyway, let's move.
Speaker 5 (13:35):
On the Trump Newsom feod is back on. Not only
is La taking steps to Trump proof, Governor Newsom is
too highly visible campaign to shield California from a Trump
white house. He announced that he's going to call a
(13:56):
special session of the legislature to prepare for potential publican
led attacks on abortion rights, environmental protections, and disaster funding,
and then Trump fired back, saying Governor Gavin Newscomb is
trying to kill our nation's beautiful California.
Speaker 2 (14:12):
Can't wait for this fight. It's going to be a
four year battle.
Speaker 3 (14:16):
And really what it is is Gavin Newsom running for
the Democratic ticket at the end of Trump's term. That's
what we're looking at, because this was all symbolic. I
mean the federal money for disaster relief. What the governor
has any say in that at all.
Speaker 6 (14:31):
No, you don't think Kamalo will run again. I don't
think twenty sixty.
Speaker 2 (14:37):
I don't think so. I don't think so. You know,
the people that run again are rare. They don't come
back very often.
Speaker 3 (14:46):
I mean they have William Jenny Bryan ran three times
back at the turn of the last century, and Richard
Nixon ran again and won.
Speaker 2 (14:56):
But for the most part, no, I don't think so.
I think they're going to find someone.
Speaker 3 (15:03):
Well, maybe she will, but she didn't have time to
really connect and I don't know how strong she is.
Because she is, here's my thought, she will always be
connected to the Biden administration, which has been deemed a
failure by most of America.
Speaker 2 (15:17):
I don't think your way they'll get around that.
Speaker 4 (15:21):
Well.
Speaker 6 (15:21):
Uh, more issues in the Middle East. Israel has for
the first time confirmed coming out and said, hey, that
operation back in September detonate all those hundreds of pagers
used by Hesba law in Lebanon, Yeah that was us.
Speaker 4 (15:38):
We did that.
Speaker 2 (15:39):
Yeah, I'm yeah.
Speaker 3 (15:39):
They said, you know, it really wasn't Moldovia like all
of you thought it was US. I mean, come on,
of course it was Israel. But they don't comment on
stuff like that. They will not confirm or deny. For example,
they've never confirmed they have atomic weapons. Said you know
that what they don't.
Speaker 2 (15:56):
Sign any treaties because they just don't have them.
Speaker 4 (15:59):
Then why do it now?
Speaker 1 (16:01):
Why?
Speaker 2 (16:01):
Because I think because they're just basically in a war.
Speaker 3 (16:04):
Nittsianyahu says we're going falls to the wall on this,
and it's said, yeah, we did this, And I think
it tells everybody that we're not backing down. This is
going to be a crazy war. Hamas is not backing down.
Israel not backing down, and this is nuts. And what
Trump is going to do, well, He's going to back
(16:25):
Israel one hundred percent.
Speaker 2 (16:27):
I think it's going to be very interesting.
Speaker 3 (16:28):
A lot of interestings things are going to happen at
the start of this new administration.
Speaker 5 (16:33):
Are the Democrats pulling another Biden? Some progressives have suggested
the Supreme Court Justice Sonya Soto Mayor Soto Mayor should
step down. She's the most senior liberal on the conservative
Supreme Court, and they're saying she should make way for
Biden to get a replacement onto the Supreme Court before
(16:53):
Trump takes office in January.
Speaker 2 (16:54):
Yeah, there's a little bit of history here.
Speaker 3 (16:56):
Remember Ruth Bader Ginsburg who was asked to attire and
she said no in anticipation of the possibility of Trump
being elected president.
Speaker 2 (17:09):
In twenty sixteen, wouldn't retire?
Speaker 3 (17:13):
And guess what happens as soon as Trump gets elected?
Speaker 4 (17:19):
Go ahead. I don't know, she was a little thing.
I don't know if it made that much noise.
Speaker 3 (17:25):
Yeah, Well, and Sonomayor has Type one diabetes.
Speaker 5 (17:31):
So and she's seventy and otherwise healthy.
Speaker 3 (17:34):
Yeah, so what is the prognosis here, she's gonna last
another four years.
Speaker 6 (17:40):
Maybe if she's otherwise healthy, why would she not.
Speaker 3 (17:45):
Also, it's a very few Supreme Court justices just retire.
Most of them die because it's a really good gig
and they enjoyed being Supreme Court justices already.
Speaker 6 (17:58):
So the Wicked movie is is coming out, Amy K
King what Naughty Girl. Mattel apologizes for mistakenly printing a
porn site on the Dolls packaging feature featuring Ariota Grande
and Cynthia Arrivo. And so they put out this Wicked
(18:18):
Dolls box, right, but there's a misprint. Instead of it
going to wickedmovie dot com, which is the official website,
I went to another one that it doesn't label, but
you can imagine Wicked. I bet you Wicked Dolls movie
or something like that. AnyWho. So, uh, yeah, it went
(18:38):
to a page that requires the user to be eighteen
years or older.
Speaker 2 (18:41):
Yeah it's a porn site basically.
Speaker 3 (18:43):
Yeah, yeah, great, and yeah, Mattel says, you know, our
policy is always to give the highest quality make the
highest quality toys, and the highest quality porn sites when
we link up to them.
Speaker 2 (18:56):
So that worked out.
Speaker 4 (18:58):
They wanted to be popular.
Speaker 6 (18:59):
Yes, ah, look me very good, very good show tunes
you and me handled.
Speaker 2 (19:05):
Yeah, no, very strong. That could be lined as your
haven't decided yet.
Speaker 4 (19:09):
It would be a slow day.
Speaker 5 (19:12):
De Leon will depart. Kevin de Leon, city councilman, has
conceded the La City council race against tenants rights attorney
Isabel Horodo thirteen percent more votes for Herrado than for
de Leon or d Lyon at last count.
Speaker 2 (19:29):
Yeah, that's a big win.
Speaker 3 (19:31):
And actually I thought that he might might have won
because he came back pretty strong after that racist business
that they recorded, and he still picked up his His
council district really likes him. But I think, well that
was done. It resonated far more than I thought it would, didn't.
Speaker 5 (19:53):
He say, back when there was a lot of calls,
I'd have to go check these. But when there were
a lot of calls for him to resign during that
scandal that erupted at city Hall, he said it's up
to the voters to decide. Yeah, he said, I'm not
stepping down.
Speaker 2 (20:06):
Right, And he didn't.
Speaker 5 (20:08):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (20:08):
So although they took him, I think they took him
off all his committee, certain committee chairs, and I don't
even know if it was on committees, could have just
been a vote.
Speaker 6 (20:18):
All right, So Trump says former ic ICE director Tom
Hoeman will join the administration as borders are sort of
controversial position that existed and then didn't exist. I guess
former Immigration and Customs guy. So he's going to be
the borders are Trump administration. Trump announced this on truth
(20:39):
Social and you know, people are already up in arms
about this guy.
Speaker 2 (20:45):
Oh, there's no surprise. But what's interesting is what he's
going to do.
Speaker 3 (20:49):
Remember day one, the deportation of all illegal immigrants starts,
and what exactly is he going to do day one?
I mean, obviously he can't deport the Trump administration can't
aboard eleven million people in one day. But we'll see
to what extent he goes. It's going to be very
that's going to be very interesting because that's one of
(21:10):
Donald Trump's biggest, biggest campaign promises.
Speaker 4 (21:14):
They're setting up catapults on the border right now, Yeah.
Speaker 3 (21:16):
They are, and Homan is going to be involved in
no surprise here, former RICE director under the Trump administration
is now going to be the border azar. So's we'll
just see how far they go on this one.
Speaker 6 (21:26):
I had no ideas controversial, but I hope to helly
starts with the Canadians. I really do get that Ryan
Reynolds out of here.
Speaker 3 (21:34):
I just just everybody on Scent Hour, all of them.
Speaker 5 (21:39):
All right, Well, the cost of climate change is climbing.
A new report is splashing a warning signal about climate
change and natural disasters, finding that they're total economic damage
as skyrocketed into the trillions of dollars. The report comes
from the International Chamber of Commerce. It comes as the
UN Climate Change Conference gets underway in azerb Jean this week.
(22:01):
It's estimated the total cost of damage from climate related
extreme weather events globally was about two trillion dollars between
twenty fourteen and twenty twenty three.
Speaker 2 (22:14):
It's gonna get interesting.
Speaker 3 (22:18):
You know, we're we're now entering a four years of
there is no climate change. The Paris Agreement gone as
far as the US is concerned.
Speaker 2 (22:27):
So the world's going to have to basically look at.
Speaker 3 (22:29):
The climate change without us being part of the agreements.
Speaker 6 (22:36):
Well, let's hope China and India get on board, because.
Speaker 2 (22:40):
Oh yeah, they're poletely not crazy difference.
Speaker 3 (22:43):
Oh yeah, you're right, you're talking about the industrial all
the industrializations have to get together on this one.
Speaker 2 (22:48):
And it's not going to happen. I don't think, not
anytime soon.
Speaker 6 (22:52):
No, it's innovation, not conservation anymore. So this is the
most horrible story on the planet to me. These types
of things are right up there with January sixth to me,
and that is the FEMA, a federal emergency management agency,
had an employee who's now been fired after they advised
their disaster relief team to avoid homes with signs supporting
(23:16):
former President Donald Trump while canvassing the in Florida or
in the aftermath of Hurricane Milton. So how that's reprehensible.
It is reprehensible, and this has gotten a point where
we are so stupid.
Speaker 2 (23:34):
No, it's a person. It is a verse, I.
Speaker 4 (23:37):
Say, all of them. We've gotten.
Speaker 6 (23:39):
The hyperbolic conversation going on in the nation is insane.
Speaker 3 (23:46):
You've got one crazy person or one despicable person. I'm
going to talk more about that.
Speaker 4 (23:49):
That's just on the show. I'm talking about this, lady.
Speaker 2 (23:52):
Oh, that's funny.
Speaker 3 (23:53):
There is a I'm going to talk about this because
the call is now to defund FEMA among some confert
survey say go because one person did this, but then
it rolls right into politics, and I think the head
of FEMA is doing exactly right in terms.
Speaker 4 (24:10):
I agree with that. I agree with that.
Speaker 2 (24:12):
All right, we have a couple of time for a
couple more stories.
Speaker 5 (24:16):
Okay. Department of Justice is sprinting to the finish line.
They say they plan to focus on arresting the most
egregious January sixth rioters. Amazing, they don't have them yet,
particularly those who committed felony assaults on law enforcement officers
but have not yet been arrested. They're looking to do
this in the seventy two days before President elect Trump
(24:36):
is back in the White House, because he's probably going
to shut down the investigation into.
Speaker 2 (24:40):
Across the board, I think.
Speaker 3 (24:42):
And then the issue is going to be how many
is he going to pardon and how many is he
going to let go? And because we know we know
that he has called them warriors, unbelievable patriots, political prisoners, hostages,
and I want to know what the backlash is going
to be for those convicted of harming and attacking police officers.
(25:06):
That one I'd like to know are those people going
to be pardoned? And I don't think Trump is.
Speaker 4 (25:11):
Going to do that, I hope to help them.
Speaker 2 (25:13):
I don't think he's going to go that far because for.
Speaker 3 (25:19):
Newly elected president Trump, president elect Trump, to pardon someone
who has harmed a police officer, I think that crosses
a line for many many people, many conservatives.
Speaker 2 (25:31):
So I don't think he's going to go that far.
Speaker 6 (25:35):
All right, Bitcoin, look at that meteoric rise eighty thousand.
Speaker 4 (25:42):
Wow.
Speaker 6 (25:42):
So Bitcoin on Sunday hit a new record of above
eighty thousand. World's largest cryptocurrency. Surged in the run up
not only to Tuesday's presidential election, but continued to rise
sharply immediately on election night after became clear Donald Trump
would win.
Speaker 4 (25:59):
This all has to do. You know.
Speaker 6 (26:01):
Obviously S and P had this, you know, massive twenty
five point plus gain this year, but Bitcoin is up
eighty percent this year, which dwarfs that.
Speaker 4 (26:13):
Obviously.
Speaker 6 (26:15):
The thing is crypto was looked down upon by Trump
early on. He said he said it was based on
thin air or something, if I remember correctly, he was
a skeptic. However, he's been embracing it in recent months,
and unlike the Biden administration, So that's why it continues
to go up.
Speaker 3 (26:35):
Yeah, I don't understand it. I've never bought crypto. I
don't understand crypto. I know people who have bought crypto
and they've made a fortune on it. And this it's
based on thin air. It is based on thin air.
It is simply because people believe it is valuable. There
is nothing backing it up. There's certainly no gold or
(26:56):
civil reserves or in the case we don't.
Speaker 4 (26:58):
Use that for it.
Speaker 2 (26:59):
Money we do use there.
Speaker 3 (27:01):
What we do use is the economy of the United
States that jacks up our dollar. You look at what
backs it up. There's a real economy there. There is
nothing with bitcoin or cryptocurrency.
Speaker 6 (27:13):
I don't get it either, but I think that it's
probably going to be something one day.
Speaker 2 (27:17):
Eighty thousand dollars per bitcoin is something.
Speaker 3 (27:20):
Now do you know when the first came out, you
could buy several for a penny.
Speaker 4 (27:26):
Yeah, well you don't have to buy one.
Speaker 7 (27:28):
Now you can buy portions of a bitcoin. Y, Yeah,
now you can, because who has eighty thousand dollars to
buy a bitcoin?
Speaker 2 (27:34):
My buddy, that's an expensive coin, but it doesn't exist.
Speaker 4 (27:36):
What nothing?
Speaker 3 (27:38):
Okay, We're done, that works out? Okay, KF I am
six forty five everywhere on the iHeartRadio app. You've been
listening to the Bill Handle Show. Catch My Show Monday
through Friday, six am to nine am, and anytime on
demand on the iHeartRadio app.
You're listening to Bill Handle on demand from KFI AM
six forty.
Speaker 2 (00:11):
But no ask inn.
Speaker 3 (00:12):
Now I'm very good at getting the printing all on
my own. So there, Neil, I actually know how to print.
She sends me a PDF. I look at it, I
press the button, I go down to print, and then
go up to print, press that button, and the son
of a gun prints, And.
Speaker 1 (00:31):
Now Handle on the news. Ladies and gentlemen, here's Bill Handle, and.
Speaker 2 (00:40):
Good morning everybody.
Speaker 3 (00:41):
It is a Monday morning, November eleventh, Veterans Day, as
we celebrate and honor the veterans who have served the
United States, prickly, those who have given their lives for
their country. And it's wonderful to see veterans.
Speaker 2 (00:57):
Actually being honored.
Speaker 3 (00:58):
There was a time during the Vietnam conflict and I
was around. I was a teenager during those times. As
a matter of fact, I was in the draft ages.
When you had veterans coming back and they could not
wear their uniform in public.
Speaker 4 (01:14):
They would be spit on.
Speaker 2 (01:16):
And it was like their fault. It was it was
a service member's fault that the fight in Vietnam was
going on.
Speaker 3 (01:24):
So we're back to honoring our veterans, and we're moving
on our way back to honoring the police. And so
it's swinging back and it's wonderful to see reality hit
And in the meantime, I want everybody to well, the
whole point is, remember what happens. A lot of events
are going on today too, and Amy went through a
(01:45):
lot of them this morning.
Speaker 5 (01:46):
Hello Amy, Good morning Bill.
Speaker 3 (01:49):
Yes, and and let's say hello to you.
Speaker 2 (01:54):
Hello, Hello, excellent, well said Cono.
Speaker 4 (01:57):
Hello.
Speaker 2 (01:58):
Do you ever change your outfit? Kno? But to me, yeah, no,
it always looks the same to me.
Speaker 4 (02:04):
I mean I'm kind of like Homer Simpson. I kind
of buy the same black shirts.
Speaker 2 (02:07):
Yeah, you sort of do. That's true. That's true.
Speaker 3 (02:10):
And you're with the same kind of hat. I think
I've seen you without your hat on once.
Speaker 4 (02:14):
And strong hairline?
Speaker 2 (02:17):
That strong? But okay, Neil, Neil has a strong hairline.
Speaker 4 (02:20):
Was that another head under there? He whiz?
Speaker 2 (02:24):
So Neil, good morning to you.
Speaker 4 (02:25):
Good morning, Willie Wolf. How are you pale?
Speaker 2 (02:28):
I'm good.
Speaker 3 (02:28):
And we spent Saturday together at the event at wild Fork.
Speaker 4 (02:32):
And it were wildly kind.
Speaker 2 (02:34):
Well, it was really a good time and people came up.
Speaker 4 (02:37):
I know you don't like the love.
Speaker 6 (02:39):
But it was very cool of you, not only to
come out but stay, and people were so excited to
see you.
Speaker 4 (02:44):
It was neat.
Speaker 3 (02:46):
There were so many people that came up to me
and said, can I take a selfie?
Speaker 2 (02:51):
My mother, my father loves you. This is for my dad.
Speaker 3 (02:56):
And I say, well, how about you, Well, not so much.
I really don't listen to you. I listened to music,
but my dad said, while you're there, please take a
picture with you.
Speaker 4 (03:07):
I didn't get any of that.
Speaker 2 (03:09):
Yeah, I got a lot of that, believe me.
Speaker 4 (03:11):
I got to me yeah, yeah, yeah, I had women kisses.
Speaker 2 (03:16):
Yeah, and a couple of people came up.
Speaker 3 (03:18):
I was there when your babies were born twenty nine
years ago, when I was on the air, and I
made a pretty big deal my kids being born, strangely enough,
and that disappeared very quickly, by the way, and I
was there.
Speaker 5 (03:31):
Go.
Speaker 3 (03:32):
It was a very crowded delivery room. You know, there
were several thousand people there, and my kids appreciate that
they were doing the wave. Yeah, you know, here's this
is it, here's a story, all right. There was we're waiting.
He was a kaiser and my wife was obviously very pregnant,
with twins. She was huge and it was a C section,
(03:54):
so it's all scheduled.
Speaker 4 (03:56):
And she's not a big woman.
Speaker 2 (03:57):
She's no, she's not, but she was big with pregnancy.
Speaker 3 (04:01):
And so we're at Kaiser sunset and two gurney's roll
up and it just so happened. At the same time,
we're waiting for a delivery room in the r and
at the same time we roll and there was another
gal who was pregnant with her husband there who happened
to be an FM jock and I forgot what his
station was.
Speaker 2 (04:21):
It was some small station, and so we're both waiting.
Speaker 3 (04:25):
The or opens up and they start rolling this other
woman in and I start screaming, does anybody pay attention
to ratings around here?
Speaker 2 (04:38):
That's actually a true story.
Speaker 3 (04:40):
Oh boy, And it just so happened.
Speaker 6 (04:48):
Hey, what'd we lose you? Where'd you go? Your mic
is gone? Did you press a button?
Speaker 5 (04:55):
We don't hear you anymore?
Speaker 4 (04:56):
Bill, Bill, you're gone.
Speaker 5 (04:58):
He's still talking.
Speaker 4 (05:00):
Look at that. It's like our own little Biden.
Speaker 2 (05:05):
The cameras.
Speaker 3 (05:07):
Bill.
Speaker 5 (05:07):
We didn't hear anything you said for the last minute.
Speaker 6 (05:10):
Seriously, Yeah, yeah, what happened? Well, your hands were moving
and your lips were moving.
Speaker 2 (05:15):
But can you hear me now?
Speaker 5 (05:17):
Yeah?
Speaker 4 (05:17):
Yeah, wow, you.
Speaker 2 (05:18):
Know what happened.
Speaker 3 (05:18):
I spilled some coffee on my microphone.
Speaker 2 (05:23):
I actually spilled.
Speaker 3 (05:24):
Some call me on my my microphone on off switch,
so maybe that'll do it.
Speaker 2 (05:29):
Yeah, hopefully it drives off, so we'll see. Anyway, where
was I was allowed?
Speaker 5 (05:33):
You don't know.
Speaker 6 (05:34):
Well, basically after the rating situation, that was it?
Speaker 3 (05:38):
Oh all right, and everybody was it just happens in
the o R. When we got in, everybody was a fan.
The nurses and the texts and the doctors had listened
to my show and it was just And so I
came in looking like a bad Japanese tourist, cameras hanging
off my neck, a video and walking in and videoing everything,
and the tech would go, hey, go over here, this
(05:59):
is a better for you, and go over there, and
the doctor went nuts. You know, we understand that we
like mister handle, but it's missus hand all that's our patient.
Speaker 2 (06:10):
It was fabulous.
Speaker 4 (06:11):
So there it was, and you didn't stop them, No, God, no.
Speaker 3 (06:15):
Of course I took You know, the photos were much
much better than anything I've got.
Speaker 2 (06:18):
Great photos.
Speaker 4 (06:19):
The sea section is.
Speaker 5 (06:20):
Disgusting by the way you to pictures.
Speaker 3 (06:22):
Oh hi, yeah, hell yeah of a C section, Yeah yeah, yeah,
it looks like a they take the US spelled see
by the way, Yes, yes, it was candy Land.
Speaker 2 (06:34):
Yes.
Speaker 3 (06:34):
And the uterus looks like a football when they pop
it out and then they cut it open, and it's
just very interesting. Anyway, all right, uh, let's do it, guys,
it's time for a handle on the news on this
Monday morning, November eleventh, with Amy Neil and me lead story.
School District's investigating is investigating racist texts since the students
(07:04):
and if these texts are going across the country to
these horribly racist texts that are going across New York, Alabama, California,
here of course, Ohio.
Speaker 2 (07:15):
Pennsylvania, and say, oh, it's mean, so disgusting.
Speaker 3 (07:18):
It's line up, here's where you have to meet, bring
your possessions with you, and it's it's indicative or it's
I guess it looks like the way they were rounding
up Jews in Europe. Show up at this point and
we're going to transfer you. I mean, it's horrible. So anyways,
(07:39):
they're trying to figure out who's doing it, and.
Speaker 4 (07:42):
There's no way to trace this stuff.
Speaker 3 (07:44):
I'm assuming that they're investigating now, and they will, I mean,
eventually they'll trace it. But if someone's good, yeah, you
go from place to place to place, and you bought
them around. For example, money that's being transferred around the world,
and it goes from account to account to account. They
can't follow up on so.
Speaker 5 (08:03):
And the texts are personalized.
Speaker 4 (08:05):
That's yeah, the scary names. Yeah, that's anyone showed up.
I'd show up at the location with a bat, yeah,
or a gun. Well, I was trying to be a
little more subtle, but.
Speaker 2 (08:17):
Yeah, but no, I know you. You would not show up
with a bat.
Speaker 4 (08:21):
Wow, it'd be a special bat. Yeah.
Speaker 5 (08:25):
Hopefully neither Biden nor Trump will show up with a bat.
When they come to for a sit down at the
White House, it's scheduled and is going to meet. They're
going to be meeting in the Oval Office on Wednesday,
according to the White House. And then is it it's
not a first Lady elect, it's incoming First Lady Milania Trump.
(08:48):
We'll also be visiting the White House and meet with
First Lady Jill Biden on it.
Speaker 2 (08:52):
Yeah, that's traditional. It's just traditional.
Speaker 3 (08:54):
They're invited in although they don't have to show them
around because they've been there before, but it's traditional. And
then on the day of the inauguration, it'll be Biden
inviting the President Milania in.
Speaker 2 (09:05):
For a traditional like more a tee, sort.
Speaker 3 (09:08):
Of a morning something, and then they go to the
inauguration together, and that will happen. It did not happen
in twenty twenty, if you remember, but it's happening.
Speaker 2 (09:18):
Now, so we're back to sort of normal. I guess.
Speaker 4 (09:23):
Yeah.
Speaker 6 (09:24):
Maybe I just keep thinking of Biden as a little boy,
and he's gonna look at Trump. Go want to see
my room. These are my toys, These are my things.
Speaker 4 (09:34):
These are my things on.
Speaker 2 (09:35):
A ninety five year old little boy. Let's take a break.
Speaker 4 (09:38):
We'll be back. Maybe he'll show him his dog is
he don't touch him? He bites.
Speaker 2 (09:43):
Yeah, he'll take your arm off, all right.
Speaker 6 (09:46):
Everybody doing their preemptive strikes, trying to figure out how
they can Trump proof whatever they have in life. The
Los Angeles City Council voted to approve emotion just this
past Tuesday that would create an ordinary to make LA
a sanctuary city for undocumented immigrants and the law wood
ban federal immigration officials from accessing city databases, banned city
(10:11):
resources from being used for immigration enforcement, and the order.
This particular ordinance, by the way, was originally passed last year,
but it's been in this lengthy legal review and has
yet to take effect.
Speaker 4 (10:25):
So they're trying to push that through.
Speaker 3 (10:26):
Yeah, we've got an interesting four years now with the
Trump administration, especially California versus Trump, or Trump versus California,
and it's going to be quite a fight sanctuary cities.
Oh wow, I mean, just this is just the start
of it, just the tenuous little start of what's going
to go on.
Speaker 6 (10:44):
I'm not sure if the map maybe Amy has seen
it or and but the map of California in its
when you look at the counties and.
Speaker 5 (10:55):
Stuff, wellness and redness.
Speaker 6 (10:56):
Yeah, it looks like it looks like it's the reddest
I've ever seen.
Speaker 3 (11:01):
Yeah, except that those blues are the population. Yeah, that's
where everybody lives is in those blue areas. So you've
got fourteen million people in southern California or La City
of La we have four million or five million. Then
you have one of the red areas up there that
has six people living.
Speaker 6 (11:20):
The point was that some of the blue areas have
turned red.
Speaker 7 (11:24):
Not that they're you know, the bab I think the
blues are becoming more prominent than the reds.
Speaker 2 (11:30):
Although this election was really weird.
Speaker 3 (11:32):
I mean, you know, did anybody think that Trump was
going to take all seven battleground states?
Speaker 2 (11:36):
That anybody think that?
Speaker 4 (11:37):
No?
Speaker 3 (11:38):
And the popular vote and the popular vote on top
of that, I thought that president that Trump could very
well have won.
Speaker 2 (11:48):
I thought that was a coin flip.
Speaker 3 (11:49):
But I absolutely was going to convince that he was
not going to win the popular vote, and he took
the whole thing. You know, Welcome to America, and welcome
to the pollsters, and welcome to misreading where America wants
to be.
Speaker 6 (12:04):
Well, I'll tell you, I'm so upset, I'm shaving my
head and I will not sleep with a man.
Speaker 2 (12:10):
Excellent.
Speaker 3 (12:11):
And by the way, eight o'clock this morning, one of
the big issues is Latinos. Why they left Joe Biden
like they were there in twenty twenty and moved over
to Donald Trump. That's a hell of a story in
and of itself, and I'm going to do that coming
up at eight o'clock.
Speaker 5 (12:28):
Hey, I found one of those red blue, red blue
maps and like ninety percent of the country is red. Seriously,
except for.
Speaker 4 (12:37):
When you break it down in county in California.
Speaker 6 (12:40):
I was blown away at how much more red is
in California than I've ever seen.
Speaker 3 (12:45):
I understood, But you know, look at La County versus
Humboldt County. All right, You've got Humboldt County that has
I don't know, I don't know how many tens of
thousands of people La La County has what eight million,
nine million people, I guess, and Humble County it may
be read, but people there are too stoned to even
go vote.
Speaker 2 (13:04):
What crop do they produce? Marijuana?
Speaker 3 (13:08):
It's when they break it down like that, the country
is about fifty to fifty, with more registered Democrats in
the United States and Democrats than Republicans. But if you
look at the map and you look at the various states,
for sample, South Dakota is red, Okay, California is blue.
You really want to compare the two forty million versus
(13:29):
what two million, three million, and you've got one red,
one blue.
Speaker 2 (13:34):
Anyway, let's move.
Speaker 5 (13:35):
On the Trump Newsom feod is back on. Not only
is La taking steps to Trump proof, Governor Newsom is
too highly visible campaign to shield California from a Trump
white house. He announced that he's going to call a
(13:56):
special session of the legislature to prepare for potential publican
led attacks on abortion rights, environmental protections, and disaster funding,
and then Trump fired back, saying Governor Gavin Newscomb is
trying to kill our nation's beautiful California.
Speaker 2 (14:12):
Can't wait for this fight. It's going to be a
four year battle.
Speaker 3 (14:16):
And really what it is is Gavin Newsom running for
the Democratic ticket at the end of Trump's term. That's
what we're looking at, because this was all symbolic. I
mean the federal money for disaster relief. What the governor
has any say in that at all.
Speaker 6 (14:31):
No, you don't think Kamalo will run again. I don't
think twenty sixty.
Speaker 2 (14:37):
I don't think so. I don't think so. You know,
the people that run again are rare. They don't come
back very often.
Speaker 3 (14:46):
I mean they have William Jenny Bryan ran three times
back at the turn of the last century, and Richard
Nixon ran again and won.
Speaker 2 (14:56):
But for the most part, no, I don't think so.
I think they're going to find someone.
Speaker 3 (15:03):
Well, maybe she will, but she didn't have time to
really connect and I don't know how strong she is.
Because she is, here's my thought, she will always be
connected to the Biden administration, which has been deemed a
failure by most of America.
Speaker 2 (15:17):
I don't think your way they'll get around that.
Speaker 4 (15:21):
Well.
Speaker 6 (15:21):
Uh, more issues in the Middle East. Israel has for
the first time confirmed coming out and said, hey, that
operation back in September detonate all those hundreds of pagers
used by Hesba law in Lebanon, Yeah that was us.
Speaker 4 (15:38):
We did that.
Speaker 2 (15:39):
Yeah, I'm yeah.
Speaker 3 (15:39):
They said, you know, it really wasn't Moldovia like all
of you thought it was US. I mean, come on,
of course it was Israel. But they don't comment on
stuff like that. They will not confirm or deny. For example,
they've never confirmed they have atomic weapons. Said you know
that what they don't.
Speaker 2 (15:56):
Sign any treaties because they just don't have them.
Speaker 4 (15:59):
Then why do it now?
Speaker 1 (16:01):
Why?
Speaker 2 (16:01):
Because I think because they're just basically in a war.
Speaker 3 (16:04):
Nittsianyahu says we're going falls to the wall on this,
and it's said, yeah, we did this, And I think
it tells everybody that we're not backing down. This is
going to be a crazy war. Hamas is not backing down.
Israel not backing down, and this is nuts. And what
Trump is going to do, well, He's going to back
(16:25):
Israel one hundred percent.
Speaker 2 (16:27):
I think it's going to be very interesting.
Speaker 3 (16:28):
A lot of interestings things are going to happen at
the start of this new administration.
Speaker 5 (16:33):
Are the Democrats pulling another Biden? Some progressives have suggested
the Supreme Court Justice Sonya Soto Mayor Soto Mayor should
step down. She's the most senior liberal on the conservative
Supreme Court, and they're saying she should make way for
Biden to get a replacement onto the Supreme Court before
(16:53):
Trump takes office in January.
Speaker 2 (16:54):
Yeah, there's a little bit of history here.
Speaker 3 (16:56):
Remember Ruth Bader Ginsburg who was asked to attire and
she said no in anticipation of the possibility of Trump
being elected president.
Speaker 2 (17:09):
In twenty sixteen, wouldn't retire?
Speaker 3 (17:13):
And guess what happens as soon as Trump gets elected?
Speaker 4 (17:19):
Go ahead. I don't know, she was a little thing.
I don't know if it made that much noise.
Speaker 3 (17:25):
Yeah, Well, and Sonomayor has Type one diabetes.
Speaker 5 (17:31):
So and she's seventy and otherwise healthy.
Speaker 3 (17:34):
Yeah, so what is the prognosis here, she's gonna last
another four years.
Speaker 6 (17:40):
Maybe if she's otherwise healthy, why would she not.
Speaker 3 (17:45):
Also, it's a very few Supreme Court justices just retire.
Most of them die because it's a really good gig
and they enjoyed being Supreme Court justices already.
Speaker 6 (17:58):
So the Wicked movie is is coming out, Amy K
King what Naughty Girl. Mattel apologizes for mistakenly printing a
porn site on the Dolls packaging feature featuring Ariota Grande
and Cynthia Arrivo. And so they put out this Wicked
(18:18):
Dolls box, right, but there's a misprint. Instead of it
going to wickedmovie dot com, which is the official website,
I went to another one that it doesn't label, but
you can imagine Wicked. I bet you Wicked Dolls movie
or something like that. AnyWho. So, uh, yeah, it went
(18:38):
to a page that requires the user to be eighteen
years or older.
Speaker 2 (18:41):
Yeah it's a porn site basically.
Speaker 3 (18:43):
Yeah, yeah, great, and yeah, Mattel says, you know, our
policy is always to give the highest quality make the
highest quality toys, and the highest quality porn sites when
we link up to them.
Speaker 2 (18:56):
So that worked out.
Speaker 4 (18:58):
They wanted to be popular.
Speaker 6 (18:59):
Yes, ah, look me very good, very good show tunes
you and me handled.
Speaker 2 (19:05):
Yeah, no, very strong. That could be lined as your
haven't decided yet.
Speaker 4 (19:09):
It would be a slow day.
Speaker 5 (19:12):
De Leon will depart. Kevin de Leon, city councilman, has
conceded the La City council race against tenants rights attorney
Isabel Horodo thirteen percent more votes for Herrado than for
de Leon or d Lyon at last count.
Speaker 2 (19:29):
Yeah, that's a big win.
Speaker 3 (19:31):
And actually I thought that he might might have won
because he came back pretty strong after that racist business
that they recorded, and he still picked up his His
council district really likes him. But I think, well that
was done. It resonated far more than I thought it would, didn't.
Speaker 5 (19:53):
He say, back when there was a lot of calls,
I'd have to go check these. But when there were
a lot of calls for him to resign during that
scandal that erupted at city Hall, he said it's up
to the voters to decide. Yeah, he said, I'm not
stepping down.
Speaker 2 (20:06):
Right, And he didn't.
Speaker 5 (20:08):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (20:08):
So although they took him, I think they took him
off all his committee, certain committee chairs, and I don't
even know if it was on committees, could have just
been a vote.
Speaker 6 (20:18):
All right, So Trump says former ic ICE director Tom
Hoeman will join the administration as borders are sort of
controversial position that existed and then didn't exist. I guess
former Immigration and Customs guy. So he's going to be
the borders are Trump administration. Trump announced this on truth
(20:39):
Social and you know, people are already up in arms
about this guy.
Speaker 2 (20:45):
Oh, there's no surprise. But what's interesting is what he's
going to do.
Speaker 3 (20:49):
Remember day one, the deportation of all illegal immigrants starts,
and what exactly is he going to do day one?
I mean, obviously he can't deport the Trump administration can't
aboard eleven million people in one day. But we'll see
to what extent he goes. It's going to be very
that's going to be very interesting because that's one of
(21:10):
Donald Trump's biggest, biggest campaign promises.
Speaker 4 (21:14):
They're setting up catapults on the border right now, Yeah.
Speaker 3 (21:16):
They are, and Homan is going to be involved in
no surprise here, former RICE director under the Trump administration
is now going to be the border azar. So's we'll
just see how far they go on this one.
Speaker 6 (21:26):
I had no ideas controversial, but I hope to helly
starts with the Canadians. I really do get that Ryan
Reynolds out of here.
Speaker 3 (21:34):
I just just everybody on Scent Hour, all of them.
Speaker 5 (21:39):
All right, Well, the cost of climate change is climbing.
A new report is splashing a warning signal about climate
change and natural disasters, finding that they're total economic damage
as skyrocketed into the trillions of dollars. The report comes
from the International Chamber of Commerce. It comes as the
UN Climate Change Conference gets underway in azerb Jean this week.
(22:01):
It's estimated the total cost of damage from climate related
extreme weather events globally was about two trillion dollars between
twenty fourteen and twenty twenty three.
Speaker 2 (22:14):
It's gonna get interesting.
Speaker 3 (22:18):
You know, we're we're now entering a four years of
there is no climate change. The Paris Agreement gone as
far as the US is concerned.
Speaker 2 (22:27):
So the world's going to have to basically look at.
Speaker 3 (22:29):
The climate change without us being part of the agreements.
Speaker 6 (22:36):
Well, let's hope China and India get on board, because.
Speaker 2 (22:40):
Oh yeah, they're poletely not crazy difference.
Speaker 3 (22:43):
Oh yeah, you're right, you're talking about the industrial all
the industrializations have to get together on this one.
Speaker 2 (22:48):
And it's not going to happen. I don't think, not
anytime soon.
Speaker 6 (22:52):
No, it's innovation, not conservation anymore. So this is the
most horrible story on the planet to me. These types
of things are right up there with January sixth to me,
and that is the FEMA, a federal emergency management agency,
had an employee who's now been fired after they advised
their disaster relief team to avoid homes with signs supporting
(23:16):
former President Donald Trump while canvassing the in Florida or
in the aftermath of Hurricane Milton. So how that's reprehensible.
It is reprehensible, and this has gotten a point where
we are so stupid.
Speaker 2 (23:34):
No, it's a person. It is a verse, I.
Speaker 4 (23:37):
Say, all of them. We've gotten.
Speaker 6 (23:39):
The hyperbolic conversation going on in the nation is insane.
Speaker 3 (23:46):
You've got one crazy person or one despicable person. I'm
going to talk more about that.
Speaker 4 (23:49):
That's just on the show. I'm talking about this, lady.
Speaker 2 (23:52):
Oh, that's funny.
Speaker 3 (23:53):
There is a I'm going to talk about this because
the call is now to defund FEMA among some confert
survey say go because one person did this, but then
it rolls right into politics, and I think the head
of FEMA is doing exactly right in terms.
Speaker 4 (24:10):
I agree with that. I agree with that.
Speaker 2 (24:12):
All right, we have a couple of time for a
couple more stories.
Speaker 5 (24:16):
Okay. Department of Justice is sprinting to the finish line.
They say they plan to focus on arresting the most
egregious January sixth rioters. Amazing, they don't have them yet,
particularly those who committed felony assaults on law enforcement officers
but have not yet been arrested. They're looking to do
this in the seventy two days before President elect Trump
(24:36):
is back in the White House, because he's probably going
to shut down the investigation into.
Speaker 2 (24:40):
Across the board, I think.
Speaker 3 (24:42):
And then the issue is going to be how many
is he going to pardon and how many is he
going to let go? And because we know we know
that he has called them warriors, unbelievable patriots, political prisoners, hostages,
and I want to know what the backlash is going
to be for those convicted of harming and attacking police officers.
(25:06):
That one I'd like to know are those people going
to be pardoned? And I don't think Trump is.
Speaker 4 (25:11):
Going to do that, I hope to help them.
Speaker 2 (25:13):
I don't think he's going to go that far because for.
Speaker 3 (25:19):
Newly elected president Trump, president elect Trump, to pardon someone
who has harmed a police officer, I think that crosses
a line for many many people, many conservatives.
Speaker 2 (25:31):
So I don't think he's going to go that far.
Speaker 6 (25:35):
All right, Bitcoin, look at that meteoric rise eighty thousand.
Speaker 4 (25:42):
Wow.
Speaker 6 (25:42):
So Bitcoin on Sunday hit a new record of above
eighty thousand. World's largest cryptocurrency. Surged in the run up
not only to Tuesday's presidential election, but continued to rise
sharply immediately on election night after became clear Donald Trump
would win.
Speaker 4 (25:59):
This all has to do. You know.
Speaker 6 (26:01):
Obviously S and P had this, you know, massive twenty
five point plus gain this year, but Bitcoin is up
eighty percent this year, which dwarfs that.
Speaker 4 (26:13):
Obviously.
Speaker 6 (26:15):
The thing is crypto was looked down upon by Trump
early on. He said he said it was based on
thin air or something, if I remember correctly, he was
a skeptic. However, he's been embracing it in recent months,
and unlike the Biden administration, So that's why it continues
to go up.
Speaker 3 (26:35):
Yeah, I don't understand it. I've never bought crypto. I
don't understand crypto. I know people who have bought crypto
and they've made a fortune on it. And this it's
based on thin air. It is based on thin air.
It is simply because people believe it is valuable. There
is nothing backing it up. There's certainly no gold or
(26:56):
civil reserves or in the case we don't.
Speaker 4 (26:58):
Use that for it.
Speaker 2 (26:59):
Money we do use there.
Speaker 3 (27:01):
What we do use is the economy of the United
States that jacks up our dollar. You look at what
backs it up. There's a real economy there. There is
nothing with bitcoin or cryptocurrency.
Speaker 6 (27:13):
I don't get it either, but I think that it's
probably going to be something one day.
Speaker 2 (27:17):
Eighty thousand dollars per bitcoin is something.
Speaker 3 (27:20):
Now do you know when the first came out, you
could buy several for a penny.
Speaker 4 (27:26):
Yeah, well you don't have to buy one.
Speaker 7 (27:28):
Now you can buy portions of a bitcoin. Y, Yeah,
now you can, because who has eighty thousand dollars to
buy a bitcoin?
Speaker 2 (27:34):
My buddy, that's an expensive coin, but it doesn't exist.
Speaker 4 (27:36):
What nothing?
Speaker 3 (27:38):
