High-Speed Rail Supporters Want To Take Our Cars Away!

Episode Transcript

Speaker 1 (00:00):
I think high speed rail and I get angry. Had
my tour Frendszon State. I'll talk about it a little
more in detail, but the pavement that the bulldogs walk
out on it, it wasn't as good as I thought
it should be. And I thought, a high speed rail.
Everything that's wrong with payment or anything we walk or
drive on. I'm thinking, so see what we drive on.
They don't want us in our cars. That's obvious. You've

(00:21):
seen the push. They want to be the equestrians while
we're the pedestrians, meaning they have horses and we got
to walk. That's how it was back in the day.
And he noticed they decided to put that at dead
Burdon train right down here in the lowest poverty region
of the state. They won't be able to afford our

(00:45):
evs or even the electricity to charge them, but won't
come them up.

Speaker 2 (00:49):
Jo.

Speaker 1 (00:52):
It's all started in two thousand and eight. Let me
see it's twenty twenty five. Last night I was watching
the Roomans built the Colisseem in eight year, eight years
at house fifty thousand people, and we still don't have
a track. Late while Newsom announced they're suing the Trump
administration over what he said is they're politically motivated termination

(01:16):
of four billion dollars in federal grants. What did Democrats
not understand about wasting money, whether it's high speed rail
or Stephen Colbert Newsom said, this is just a heartless
attack on the Central Valley that will put real jobs
and livelihoods on the line. We're suing to stop Trump
from derailing America's only high speed rail activity under construction.

(01:37):
Now it's coming to just in your head right now,
picture that train sound and they hit the brakes. That sound.
I hate that sound. That's with the chalkboard fingernails sound.
To me, that scraping of this that's what's happening, though,
at least to the funding of it, because we don't

(01:57):
have a train for that to even Maybe they've made
some models. Maybe that's Are they all sniffing the glue?
Is that what it is? Yeah, I think a lot
of them are maybe sniffing the glue like the Fresno
b Blue Sniff and editorial board. We think President Trump
needs a rethinker's decision to divorces administration from our high
speed real project to re send four billion dollars in

(02:20):
federal grants Newsom said all environmental reviews for the four
hundred and sixty three miles from the Los Angeles to
the Bay Area are finished and and that train set
selection is underway. Train set selection they do there are

(02:42):
gonna be looking at little models and going, I want
that one. Probably be AI imagery like they put out
of all the love when they put out how the
pictures are gonna look everyby well dressed baby strollers actually
have babies in them? No, I think we're gonna see
a lot of the strollers like we see right around
o Shaw and Blackstone here don't have babies in them.

(03:05):
It's always refreshing though when I do occasionally catch a
baby in a baby stroller instead of the transience with
their I guess that's their livelihood that they have a
lot of them have their dog in there. And while
I'm thinking about that, where's where's the animal lovers?

Speaker 3 (03:21):
With this?

Speaker 1 (03:23):
I see the sixty second slowed down music of the
dogs being abused. Do you really think that people that
got mental issues, drug issues, alcohol issues, that can't even
take care of themselves, they're taking care of those dogs.
Nobody mentions it at all whatsoever. And you ever see
animal control stopping at the corner where they're holding their signs,

(03:43):
and you know they bring the dog out for that
heart string that pole there. But what about the health
of those dogs?

Speaker 2 (03:52):
Guys?

Speaker 1 (03:52):
I thought, come on all right, back to high speed row.
Here was Duffy's explanation, Transportation Secretary that it's gone from
thirty three billion to one hundred and thirty five billion,
and we look way down the let's go, say, the
train tracks, but they're not get there yet. But I
don't even know if we've cut down and have the

(04:14):
dirt moved, you know, it even put but way down
the train track, there's no completion date in sight so far.
Fourteen point four billion. Here's what Transportation Secretary Duffy said,
with that money, fourteen point four billion, that we could
give every single LA and San Francisco resident almost two

(04:34):
hundred free flights for that much money. Yeah, so they're
pulling the plug. Well, here's what the Fresno be editorial
board said, excuse us. But they actually wrote that down
excuse us, Comma, how do you read that? I think, Okay,

(04:55):
if they're upset, it's like this, excuse us. But the
first phase of the project will provide transportation from oil
rich Bakersfield to California's fifth largest city, Fresno, who's population
is greater than Atlanta's. And then Timer said, home of
an accomplished UC campus that neighbors Yosemite National Park. Now, again,

(05:17):
there are good things about the valley, but if they're
trying to pull out all these destinations, like, okay, let's
say that we actually did drill baby drill, and Bakersfield
was oil rich. Uh, people, Hey, let's go down and
watch the oil wells. Now, maybe you're going, okay, there
might be oil business. Well if it was connected to

(05:39):
La a major airport, or you know, maybe even the
Sacramento where somebody might be up there, you know, up
and down with the oil if the oil business was booming.
But if it's booming, they're gonna want to drive their
pickup truck, all right. They quoted Duffy here in this

(06:03):
Fresnel Be editorial saying I won't help Gavin news and
waste your money. And they go waste question mark, they
get waste. Excuse us waste, they said. The project thus
far is created fifteen thousand, five hundred and sixty jobs engaged,
with nine hundred and thirty six small businesses and generated
more than twenty one billion dollars in economic impact. So

(06:26):
what you're saying is we only had to waste fourteen
billion to make twenty one billion.

Speaker 2 (06:32):
So yeah, look at that boy.

Speaker 1 (06:34):
They painted a great picture and fifteen thousand, five hundred
and sixty jobs is I'm curious, maybe we need to
ask train conductor Perea here if does that means since
two thousand and eight, I hope there's not fifteen thousand,
five hundred and sixty people being currently paid for what

(06:54):
to me on the outside looking still on the outside,
there is no inside a lite look at for nothing.

Speaker 2 (07:03):
Anyhow.

Speaker 1 (07:03):
The Fresobe editorial board ends with Trump and Duffy should
open their eyes and see what high speed rail means
you California and the country. Yeah, I'll tell you what
it means. They're blue sniffing board. Communists love trains for
poor people. They go where they're told. You don't add
the freedom to I don't know, change your mind and

(07:24):
go somewhere else in a different direction. See having your
own car that you can bull up the gas stations
all over the place. Well, when you can afford to
drive all over the place, that's too much freedom for him.
That's really what it's rooted in. They don't want these

(07:45):
these blue states. They don't. It's the start of it.
I love the post from John Girardi, who'll be on
the Power Talk here at six. He said, the fact
that they have to resort to defending high speed rail
for its overstated job creation, it's how you know it's
a disaster.

Speaker 2 (08:04):
He says.

Speaker 1 (08:04):
Yeah, I could create a bunch of jobs of the
government program to dig ditches in the morning and then
fill them up in the afternoon, but it's probably not
a good idea. Yeah, there's been Tony soprano stuff going
on with this, so obvious, and I'm glad that now
this funding is.

Speaker 2 (08:21):
Not coming out here for this.

Speaker 1 (08:24):
It needs to stop immediately, but it's not going into
until voters stop voting for Democrats. Democrats, you like your
car as much as Republicans. You like to drive and
visit family. You like to pick which grocery store that's

(08:45):
maybe not on a train route in a little fifteen
minute city that they want you to just go, Hey
to b in back with riding your mayor Dyer council
member Carbassi bikes around town, ding Ding ding Ding doing
your little bell driving down Fry It between rockalling trucks
and Drew going, you know, sixty eight and his tesla.

(09:06):
Then once you drive along that little green, little lime
green line out in the middle of traffic. America became
great because we built things, man, the Boston Subway, the
New York City Subway, the Panama Canal, and.

Speaker 2 (09:25):
They did it in pretty good time. Well in today California,
time may be called record time again.

Speaker 1 (09:33):
Eight years to build the coliseum. You think of the
world Wars one and two, how America what we generated
and we we outproduced the rest of the world combined,
and that's why we accomplished victory. And then you think
after after the Second World War, the major growth in America.

(09:55):
These freeways didn't build themselves, no, and then things started
to condorscrow garyl in the nineteen seventies. I think it
was the commercial of the Native Indian guy crying onside

(10:16):
the freeway with it covered with trash, the tear coming down.
Remember the whole environmental movement of the nineteen seventies. I
remember being a kid growing up there and going, man,
I'm glad I don't live in that part of America.
I never see that down here in Tennessee or Texas. Boy,
it looked really horrible. I thought of some of those

(10:37):
cities up in the northeast and how it was. California
was still the Golden State then I don't call it
that anymore. But now the blue governments, the big liberal
Democrat states, they got together with all these nonprofits, you remember,
like hugging trees to stop bulldozers and all of that,

(11:00):
and so much of our industry moved overseas. Our freeway
slowed down. I mean, when's the last time you've heard
of a new interstate being built. There's additions and road
constructions to some of them, but I know, let me think, Okay,
in West Tennessee there was a new one that was
coming down. I do do remember that. But you got

(11:22):
so many big cities. I lived in Fredericksburg, Virginia, which
is on a normal day a like thirty eight minute
drive to DC. But there's no normal days there. DC
Metro Area way undersize because they decades ago they pushed
them into mass transit. That radio station in Fredericksburg, it

(11:47):
was a country station and they did traffic. When I
first got there, I'm like you're kidding me, do you
traffic reports Saturday night at ten, Yes, it's a big
deal here, Saturday night at ten traffic. They want us
in fifteen minute city so they can get rid of
these and to make America great again. Wouldn't you say

(12:09):
that we need to build. We've had decay. Man, let's
make it. Let's make it in America. Let's unleash our
America and energy. Let's drill in Bakersfield. Then all the
glue sniffers, I mean, baker Sield would then really be

(12:31):
be rich with oil. The entire valley could be rich
in oil. Gas could be a buck twenty three. And
we all want to drive to exactly where we want
to go. An our I'll call it my forty five
minute city that I want to drive where I want
to go. So pound sand you auto grabbers out there,
you know what you can do. You can sniff our

(12:53):
fossil fueled gas. Yes, this is the treportary show on
the Valley's Power Talk. This news is going to get
out and you're going to have Democrats are going to
wake up when they sit and listen to everything, sake
your average American. They're like, all right, I'm sitting here
or eating my golden grams. Let me turn on CNN.

Speaker 4 (13:12):
Here concluded that Russia had neither the intent nor capability
to impact the outcome of the US election.

Speaker 5 (13:19):
On December fifth, we've been listening there to the Director
of National Intelligence, Tulsi Gabbard, continuing on what has now
been a multi day effort not only with public statements
like this, but release of documents to attempt to back
up the quite extreme allegation that President Obama is guilty
of treason and that he worked in some sort of

(13:40):
conspiracy with Hillary Clinton, etc. In the assessment by the
intelligence community at the time that Russia interfused shut in
the twenty sixteen election.

Speaker 1 (13:50):
Hash your mouth and let Tulsa Gabbard talk. Okay, I'm
going to let her talk. After five. You can hear
everything that came out today if you want to join us.
Thank you to a Director Nigel l Ask earlier in
the hour. Or We had our twelfth murder in Fresno
just a few days ago, and I and he went back.
In twenty twenty, we had seventy seven murders twenty twenty one,

(14:12):
seventy three, twenty twenty two, sixty one. In twenty three,
we had thirty seven murders. Last year we had thirty
and now we're at twelve. So where I guess technically
a little bit maybe pass halfway halfway point. If we
doubled it, we'd be at twenty four, which would still

(14:33):
be less. So that's it's in the right direction. Just
like fast food jobs, less of them, fewer. Here's a
paper released by the National Bureau of Economic Research. They
said California's new twenty per hour minimum waights for fast
food workers, yay power to the people, people unite. That

(14:55):
resulted in a little decline in employment. Just few fewer jobs,
just a few How mean are we talking about eighteen thousand,
eighteen thousand fewer jobs that would have been the case otherwise?
Brilliant newsome see I hope you see this for what
this is. Mussolini, they were socialists. He was a fascist.

Speaker 2 (15:19):
He was.

Speaker 1 (15:21):
Socialism is a nice working of government with business, and
if it's a big enough dictator, business kind of goes
along with it. So it's really kind of a takeover
that they work together. Why would the state of California
look out across the horizon and go, you know what,
let's pick a private industry out there.

Speaker 2 (15:41):
Oh I see golden arches. Oh yeah, there's a lot.

Speaker 1 (15:45):
Oh ok yeah they Okay, let's pick that business and
let's go out there and mandate that they must private
American entrepreneurs must pay twenty dollars an hour. Must Now,
what's different when doing that and your line of work
that you might be in. What if Newsom said, all media,

(16:09):
we're going to dictate, that would be strange to me.
If the government stepped in and dictated what private company
iHeart had to pay, that would seem odd to me.
They've already stated in California though, that if you do
a job offering online, you have to put on there
what it pays. See their anti business. If I owned

(16:33):
a business, I would want to interview people and then
find out the ones that I like, and then try
and get them first least amount of money as I could.
That's the way I would run my business. And if
they did good and I was making money, I would
reward them for their work. But yeah, you try and

(16:55):
get them, but no, straight out the gate. You got
to put a number up there. My dad told me
early on when I had my lawnmowing business, in Memphis, Tennessee.

Speaker 2 (17:05):
You know, I was like, you know, eleven twelve? Uh?
He said.

Speaker 1 (17:09):
If they say how much do you charge them ow
the lawn? He said, just ask them back, well, I
don't know what do you what are you willing to
pay me for me to mow your yard? Try and
get them to give a number first, because what if
they were you know, they were willing to pay six
bucks because it was really hot, and I blurted out,
I'll do it for three.

Speaker 2 (17:29):
Yeah. Deal. He would have said.

Speaker 3 (17:31):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (17:31):
See.

Speaker 1 (17:31):
Now if they ask again, well, young man, what do
you charge again to do my yard? You know I
always add a few bucks to what you're willing to
do it, and see what they say. I was willing
to do it for three, I'm going to say, uh, sir,
I'll do it for six. Yeah, but negotiation taken out.

(17:54):
If you're in the fast food business, no, they the
state tells you what to pay, you must. Well, now,
look what the wisdom of Mussolini up there in Sacramento
has created eighteen thousand fewer jobs. All right, way to go,

(18:16):
new some you want to spread this across America. Hey,
We're gonna let America know if they're not quite paying
attention yet. I'm sure the JD Vans for President twenty
twenty eight campaign has some nice commercials ready to roll.
I know you still got three more years to turn
it around. But wait, you were in South Carolina where
we had twelve fires. So California has the highest unemployment

(18:37):
rate in the United States. Will bless their heart. Look
at the folks up in San Francisco. They're going to
clean up even though the Chinese aren't coming to town.
The Border City Supervisors approval a ban on parking RVs.
They say they got an area where there's about four

(19:00):
hundred RVs. I've seen it on YouTube when the guy
who grew up in Oakland who drives around with his
camera out there and gets a little emotional, rightfully so
resees his neighborhood. What happened to it? And you see
all these RVs along these side streets. It kind of
looks like a smaller version. I don't know if you've

(19:22):
ever driven on it in to Phoenix from like San
Berdardino out that way. I forgot. Is it quartzite? Yes,
I think it is in the right time of the season.
I guess when it's not real hot. Suddenly the desert
is almost feels as far as the eye can see.
You see all these RVs and all these people come
from all over the country. They probably see you next year,

(19:44):
all right, they you know, everybody in their little area.
But it's so many people out there. Man, that's okay,
But you can't do that in the inner city. So
they said, now they have made Mayor Daniel Lourie. I
guess he's his polling's been all right, but they're coming in.

(20:05):
They said they're going to clean it up.

Speaker 2 (20:07):
I don't know.

Speaker 1 (20:08):
Maybe things like this is why California's also half a
million from the beginning of the man made lockdown, most
of that from San Francisco and smell A, the open
air drug markets. I think they put a little clamp
down on that as well. But I'm sure you're going
to see it. You see the addicts on the street,
We see him here. We're constantly having to call security.

(20:30):
It has it has not been cleaned up? May Or
Dier I remember, I don't know, quite a few years ago. Yeah,
what was that.

Speaker 6 (20:41):
The truth is, you can pick up trash all day,
but if there's somebody behind you throwing trash, we're going
to be spending on wheel. So it's going to be
a big education component of volunteer effort. There'll be an
enforcement effort, and then certainly we're going to do our
part to collectively clean the city up and work with
other agencies. Confident when you look back in Fresno in

(21:04):
six months to one year, you're going to see a
completely different city, a completely different city.

Speaker 1 (21:10):
Yeah that was about six years ago. Obviously is it
completely different? Yes, in many different ways, and it's gotten
way worse and they can't account for again, let this,
let us sink in twenty three billion dollars of your
money they can't account for and it's obvious it didn't

(21:32):
go to help anybody. So where did it go? Yeah,
and we had our mayor, Mayor Dier and Governor Dippy Do.
They patted each other on the back like they did
a good job with this, and no, I don't buy
it on this.

Speaker 3 (21:47):
We got to meet this moment. This issue is a crisis.
It's a state of emergency. People are dying on the
streets and sidewalks. There's no compassion stepping over people on
the streets and sidewalks. And we got on up to
this in a way we have it in the past.
State of California with respect is nowhere to be found
on this issue.

Speaker 2 (22:06):
Yeah, it was about I think it was about two
years ago.

Speaker 3 (22:09):
You'll be the beneficiary here in Fresno City and County
of eleven and a half million dollars of emergency grants
that are being distributed in real time, quite literally, in
the next few weeks, six hundred and fifty million dollars
will be distributed throughout the state of California, communities large
and small.

Speaker 1 (22:26):
Tomorrow we're going to talk about on the show, and
maybe by the end of the week. The next day
we're get somewhere on for the Black So Merchants Association.
They're sick of the transients that are running their businesses
and they're teaming up together.

Speaker 3 (22:40):
We've done good work to support our social service safety
nets broadly, but not with a focus, not with an
intentional strategy.

Speaker 1 (22:50):
Oh, you haven't been focused, and you didn't have an
intentional strategy.

Speaker 2 (22:56):
He just said he did. He hadn't been Why weren't
you focused?

Speaker 1 (22:58):
Why didn't you have a strateg He had twenty three
billion dollars their DIPTY.

Speaker 3 (23:03):
With a real comprehensive plan, that has now changed.

Speaker 2 (23:07):
Oh it's changed. Now we have a plan yeah, now
executing on that regining and.

Speaker 3 (23:11):
Now we're supporting that pen not with rhetoric, not with
press releases or press conferences, but with real money.

Speaker 1 (23:18):
Okay, not with rhetoric or press conferences. Well, he just
held a press conference with a bunch of rhetoric. He
had real money and they couldn't account for it, and
it's wasted and it didn't get fixed.

Speaker 2 (23:28):
Come on, man, come.

Speaker 3 (23:30):
On, man, I get it.

Speaker 2 (23:32):
And this is the Trevor Cherry Show on the Valley's
Power Talk.

Speaker 1 (23:38):
I think it bowls down to they just don't understand
business one iota. I guarantee you that if President Trump
could not stand Stephen Cobert and he sent a letter
to the CBS president and it was making money, he
might say, mister President, I love to play golf with
you at some point, but we're keeping the show on.

Speaker 2 (23:59):
Its making money. I think as a businessman, you understand that.

Speaker 7 (24:04):
Now.

Speaker 1 (24:04):
I don't think they do. They don't understand comedy anymore.
See why would the liberal media out there and everybody
that's in a tizzy in Hollywood about it, Why would
they even understand the thought process behind. People aren't watching.
It's not funny. We're not going to continue to pay
for this because they've lost even what comedy is. Let

(24:29):
me remind you, can I can? I remind you what
comedy is again. I had somebody that listens to the
show text me say thank you for playing that, Norm McDonald.
I needed that that day. I think it was two
days ago. I played it on the show. I missed
the nineteen hundreds. Here's Norm McDonald talking about the WNBA.

Speaker 7 (24:49):
After closing out a successful first season, The WNBA is
considering several changes to improve the level of play in
the league next year. Among the proposals extending the playoffs,
increasing salaries, bringing back the three point line, and replacing
all the female players with guys. THEWNBA officials expanded to

(25:11):
ten teams this week, adding franchises in Detroit and Washington,
d C.

Speaker 2 (25:16):
But before you.

Speaker 7 (25:16):
Get too excited about the new editions the league, remember
all of the players are still women. They stink at basketball.
That's the problem. Other than that'd be a good, good game,
but they're they're all horrible, So.

Speaker 2 (25:32):
I makes for a foreign game.

Speaker 1 (25:34):
God rest his soul. Scott Jennings was on CNN talking
about Cobert. I'm gonna let you hear also from mister
wonderful Kevin O'Leary. He had some thoughts about it as well.

Speaker 5 (25:45):
But they're canceling the show because this is what President
Trump wanted to let this merger go through.

Speaker 8 (25:48):
No, I mean it's pretty look at the reporting on
this on and off the record. Executives all over are
saying we had to do it for financial reasons. This
is a massive show with a massive staffs losing a
mass amount of money. This is the nature of the
TV business right now. You just are not economically viable
if you're supposed to be doing a comedy show that's
not funny, that's losing fifty.

Speaker 2 (26:10):
Million dollars a year.

Speaker 8 (26:11):
I mean, only liberals, extreme liberals, would think that we
have to keep subsidizing partisan rants every night that are
economically not viable just because why it makes absolutely no
financial sense. He works for a for profit company. Don't
you have to turn a profit at some juncture and
he's not doing it. And you know, there's a lot
of people in this general business right now who think

(26:34):
that I exist to go after Donald Trump at all costs,
But no one stops to think do I exist to
make money or not? Maybe these things aren't compatible when
you cut out half the country from your possible audience.

Speaker 1 (26:44):
He's so good at saying that. Maybe that's why he
just got a national radio show. That's Miss Doublend Defall,
mister shark Tank, Mister Kevin o'larry predicted that Stephen Colbert
would be fired by tomorrow, and this was yesterday, so
today would have been his tomorrow. I don't think it's
happened yet, but he makes a good point here.

Speaker 8 (27:04):
Trump called first firing last fall.

Speaker 9 (27:07):
Just to be clear, let's talk about what actually happened.
Forty six point two million dollars in losses on a
franchise that's forty years old. It's old, it's dead, and
unfortunately for all of the category, people are geometrically not
watching late night TV anymore.

Speaker 1 (27:25):
You had to explain the economics to it. One night,
I was driving home after work and John Girardi was
talking about the same thing, saying, who's up that late?
He's like, who's watching? And if those that are up
that late, it has changed. There's a lot of different
things you could be watching and doing. Now I'll watch

(27:46):
the Tucker Podcast. Now, I'll watch Joe Rugan. No, I'll
watch this, I'll do that. I'll go I'll watch YouTube.
I'll watch what I want to watch. Yeah, Stephen Copier
dancing around with a bunch of syringes talking to Adam Schiff.

Speaker 2 (28:01):
That's not gonna work.

Speaker 1 (28:02):
Here's Kevin O'Leary warning about the words that he sent
to President Trump's listen to this. I would have never
thought of this.

Speaker 9 (28:11):
Here's the problem for Colbert. His contract is a payout
contract through a transaction where there's a change of control.

Speaker 2 (28:19):
Only a moron.

Speaker 9 (28:21):
Would tell the president to f off before he gets
his check. Okay, So what's gonna happen now, in my
opinion is tomorrow CBS, his boss will fire him and
they will litigate for the next five years his payout.

Speaker 6 (28:44):
People never get it.

Speaker 2 (28:46):
You got him going there? Didn't He.

Speaker 1 (28:50):
Even CBS Mornings talking about how the changes are happening
in late night TV, and no gut Field's on late
at night doing well sxremely well. There could be somebody
that could do extremely well if they were good and funny,
And it's as easy as just turning on your TV

(29:11):
and turning that in there it is, and people they
would watch that if it was good. Others they can
still stay up that late. But this really, let me
just go ahead and give you the translation for the
previous morning talk they're about to do here. It really
is the Wope broke, go Wope go broke. I mean,
you know, tune out your audience and you're going to

(29:31):
lose money.

Speaker 4 (29:32):
These late night shows are what do you call it,
like a blockbuster kiosk inside a tower record. So the
business is broken, and what no one seems to acknowledge
is that the politics also changed. The business change instead
of the politics, and it got way more one sided
than anything Johnny Carson was ever doing. I think we
should reflect on those changes as well. It's been a
big shift culturally in that regardless.

Speaker 10 (29:50):
I hear you, but I think many people feel there's
another way to do it.

Speaker 3 (29:53):
You know.

Speaker 10 (29:53):
It's just it's a very difficult position to be end
to be to disagree with something that company's doing but
also still loving your job and loving what you do.
I feel feel for Stephen Colbert.

Speaker 1 (30:04):
Oh, I feel so far. I hate what our company
is doing to him. It's kind of tough on me,
he said. Gail Kane. Imagine my company not wanting to
lose money. Cucku aren't they speaking at Cuckoo Potato head?
Over at c and N Brian Stelter. Let's go to
the wise. When Stelter, Stelter directs us to none other

(30:25):
than John Stewart, I think he has some kind of
producing production kind of thing with Colbert. There's something between them.

Speaker 11 (30:34):
Yeah, John Stewart does believe that political pressure had something
to do with Colbert's consolation. He made that quite clear
in his commentary.

Speaker 12 (30:43):
If you believe, as corporations or as networks, you can
make yourselves so innocuous that you can serve a gruel
so flavorless that you will never again be on the
boy King's radar. Hey, why will anyone watch you?

Speaker 2 (31:00):
And you are wrong?

Speaker 1 (31:05):
We know whose fault it is, don't we? That Cobert's
not funny, NCBs was losing money, that Booker's decided to,
you know, bring Nancy Pelosi on and Adam schiff on.

Speaker 2 (31:16):
Yeah. Eric Swallwell, I.

Speaker 1 (31:19):
Bet you half America from their group or more seventy
eighty percent of their liberals that he still might have
had been like, oh, I don't want to watch this
Guy Swallwell.

Speaker 2 (31:29):
Who is that?

Speaker 3 (31:32):
You know?

Speaker 2 (31:32):
Co beart so wrapped up in it.

Speaker 1 (31:33):
But leave it to Potato head over at CNN to
get right to the root of the problem.

Speaker 11 (31:40):
Our TV network's going to keep supporting political satire and
free speech at a time when President Trump's campaign of
retribution is rattling corporate America.

Speaker 2 (31:49):
You know, there's been a long history.

Speaker 11 (31:51):
In the US of comics having a lot of space
and room to poke fun at presidents as well as
the network executives who run the parent companies. But right now,
how fans field that tradition.

Speaker 2 (32:01):
Is under threat, under threat.

Speaker 1 (32:03):
Your freedom of speech, your ability to be funny is
under threat.

Speaker 2 (32:07):
Because of Donald J.

Speaker 1 (32:09):
Trump spray around the tds disinfected.

Speaker 2 (32:16):
This is the Trevor Charry Show on The Valley's Power Talk.

Speaker 1 (32:22):
President County Superior Judge Jonathan Skiles ruled the city Fresno
did not meet state law see environment, Man see environment.
So Costco looks like got the green light, and this
group popped up to herd it in Riverside Coalition for
Responsible Community Planning. They foult a lawsuit against the city.

(32:43):
I guess to people that probably live around there that
didn't want to Costco around him. I think it's kind
of simple kind of thing. I think at this juncture
in my life, I'd be like, Yes, build one that
I can walk to. Yeah, it's gonna be the biggest one,
I guess.

Speaker 2 (32:58):
On the planet. Whoa boy, doggie.

Speaker 1 (33:02):
This group claimed that they violating analysis of greenhouse gas
emissions did not provide an alternative side for the project.
They claim that the city violated their own development code.
I think tomorrow I'm going to talk about the Senate
bill where they can build it eight story high rise
of apartments right in your neighborhood and you can't say

(33:24):
anything about it. Oh yeah, yeah, you won't be able
to if this passes up in Sacramento. We'll get more
into that tomorrow. But now, per the ruling, Fresno must
refrain from further approvals for the new, big old Costco
until the city certifies the revised environmental impact review. Got
to be incompliant. Extremely hard to build in California. I

(33:49):
always use the example of my friend he probably now
used to say ten years ago, fifteen years ago, started
a business in California, and he said, it's almost as
if they don't want you to. They make it so difficult,
Razielov said, unclear how the city's going to respond to
the judges ruling. All right, I guess they didn't. They

(34:11):
didn't want all that Industrial Council President Mike Carbosi that
represents that district he's talking about the costco. He said
the city did provide ample opportunity for public feedback before
approving the design well over a year ago in March
of twenty twenty four, and he said this coalition tried
to hijack the process through their lawsuit. Brazelo City Council

(34:35):
President Carbasi said the city should remain committed to building
the project and explore how to move forward. He expressed
concerned the coalition could try blocking further efforts to adjust
the plans, including if the city were try to rezone
the land as well.

Speaker 2 (34:53):
They make it as difficult.

Speaker 1 (34:56):
And it when you group it all together, do you
ever start to get that deep down gut feeling in
there that there are people that everything that they do
goes against what would make a neighborhood, a city, a
state flourish. And I think we've just become so I
don't know, numb to the fact that we just well,

(35:17):
that's California. Man, you know, we got good weather. There's
over five million registered Republicans in this state. There's a
bunch of us. I think many times even the President
of the United States and other the media they just
you know, act like urban California has just whacked out,
and there's five million of us. There's even more. There's

(35:39):
people that are sane minded like ourselves. They just haven't
registered because they just had given up on California because ah,
we'll stay out here.

Speaker 2 (35:47):
But nah, we know about it.

Speaker 1 (35:49):
We've been dealing with it all the way back to
Governor Moonbeam and Lenda Ronstat in the seventies. It was
different then, truly was we have democrats in a state
that do not want us, all of us, to be successful.

Speaker 2 (36:04):
They do not want that to assist. At Trevor carry
