Speaker 1 (00:00):
Boy, I tell you what, Yes on fifty thing has
so many lies involved with it. That's why we're out
here doing a show called no On fifty. We're live
at the press Box Sports Grill right at the northwest
corner of Herndon and Fowler. With me here in the
five o'clock hour, the City of Clovis Mayor Pro Temp.
(00:20):
Diane Pierce. Diane, welcome, Thank you for having us to
your fine city.
Speaker 2 (00:24):
Ah.
Speaker 3 (00:24):
We are glad to have you here, especially for a
cause like this, because this is so important and I
appreciate you being out here. What a fun afternoon, great weather,
and I appreciate the invitation to come and talk about
this with you.
Speaker 1 (00:36):
Yeah, I had to had to leave yesterday. I got
a hotel here last night. You know, I didn't want
to make a long drive and then have to do
this to do the show here. I wonder was there
ever a time wait, have you ever heard way back
in the day maybe where it was discussed, Oh, let's
just become one city, you know, there's it always been Minneapolis,
Saint Paul, Dallas for no I.
Speaker 3 (00:54):
Mean, Clovis has a unique flavor. We've got our rodeo,
we've got all of our.
Speaker 1 (00:59):
I'm not bringing it up for now, but have you
ever heard of anything back in the world?
Speaker 4 (01:02):
Never?
Speaker 3 (01:03):
I think, always very distinct and different, but hopefully we are.
Speaker 1 (01:08):
I'm sure back in the day you think about it,
old town Clovis and old town Fresno, which is just
downtown Fresno. Yeah, that's quite a way apart back exactly. Yeah,
when they got founded, people would be like, well, he's
over in Clovis for the week, probably back with horse
right right. Have you ever seen any of those books?
I loaned it to somebody, never got it back. But
in the grocery store like Fresno or Clovis, they show
(01:30):
all the old pictures. Yes, yes, I just love to
look through that stuff.
Speaker 5 (01:33):
Yeah, it's very very cool all that history.
Speaker 3 (01:36):
And you know, I think one of the things I
love the most about Clovis is we are so interested
in not just retaining our history and who we've been
and why we are how we are, but we truly
honor all of that stuff as well and want to
make sure that the next generations understand where we came from,
why we talk about the Clovis way of life, why
(01:56):
we have things like the rodeo and Clovisfest and Big
Hat Days and all these things that really make Clovis
extra special.
Speaker 1 (02:02):
Do you guys just have a real clamp down with
the police department and the media, because after I hear
all these events where times alcohol is involved, I never
I don't even think I've reported on a bad story
that's happened with that many people.
Speaker 5 (02:15):
I really, I mean, I think it is two things.
Speaker 3 (02:17):
We have an outstanding public safety department and all of
those things are really taking care of. But we really
have a great group of citizens who truly want to
make sure that these community events stay viable and family
friendly and all of those things.
Speaker 5 (02:31):
And so it's just it's not.
Speaker 1 (02:34):
Normal for a city to all pull in in a
weekend the equivalent of their population, because aren't some of
those one hundred thousand people come through over some of
these days events?
Speaker 5 (02:43):
Yeah, particularly the rodeo.
Speaker 3 (02:44):
The rodeo is probably the biggest one where we see
a lot of people out of towners coming in and
staying in Clovis and enjoying that.
Speaker 5 (02:52):
But yeah, it's good fun, good fun.
Speaker 1 (02:55):
When Shakira came and played at Valley Children's did did
close seeing uptick another they said it brought in like
two million in additional revenue from outside. Did you hear
anything here about the business.
Speaker 3 (03:05):
I didn't hear anything, but I mean that was already
relatively still relatively recent as far as like when those
types of receipts and stuff come in and we would
get reports on it. But yeah, those one time events
are a little harder to pinpoint.
Speaker 1 (03:18):
Well, I'd like to thank your fellow council member Drew
Bessinger came by in the three o'clock hour. You guys
have been talking about how Clovis is going to be
carved up into three districts, and Diana explain that how
No on fifty would stop that and Yes on fifty
what it would do to Clovis and their representation in Congress.
Speaker 3 (03:39):
Yeah, you know, Clovis wasn't thrilled with the most recent
redistricting after the twenty twenty census because we had been
a little more connected to our metropolitan area and the
most recent lines that were drawn following that linked us
to Bakersfield. So obviously, you know, California lost some of
our representation because our state is so poorly run that
(04:01):
people had left and so we have shrunk in our
representation in Congress. And so what our redistricting commission did
essentially was wound up pitting what had been the Clovis district,
which had previously been represented by Devin Nunis and then
Speaker Kevin McCarthy is who kind of took it. They
took those two districts and put them together essentially, and
(04:22):
so they were going to be able to get rid
of one or the other if they ran against each other.
And so we're currently represented by Vince Fong, who is
doing a fantastic job and is incredibly responsive to not
just the local elected officials, but to Clovis as a community.
He's been here a lot. He really cares about being
a good representative for Clovis. But if this goes through,
(04:43):
rather than the difficulty of Clovis being connected to Baker's Field,
Clovis would not just have one representative.
Speaker 5 (04:51):
It wouldn't just be.
Speaker 1 (04:54):
And you know, some.
Speaker 3 (04:55):
People are like, oh, you have to pick up the
phone extra times, but it's more than that, really, because
if you look at a city and you see what
part of our population would be represented by one of
those three members of Congress, you recognize that when you
look at the entirety of their district.
Speaker 5 (05:10):
We're just a fraction of their voters.
Speaker 3 (05:12):
And that means that we're only going to have a
fraction of their attention where exactly, So each of those
three representatives, he or she is only going to have
that much concern for the voters here. And I don't
mean to take anything away from any of the representatives.
They could be fantastic people, but that's just the reality
of representation, and particularly the kind of northern and eastern
(05:35):
part of Clovis that would have the district that Drew
talks the most about, because that's the one that's connected
all the way to the Nevada border and all the
way up to like Alpine and all the way down
to San Bergentino, and just thinking about the logistics of
representing that type of space, and when you think about
the needs of those different regions all lumped together, even
the needs of Clovis are going to be pitted against
(05:58):
needs of areas that have had ssolutely nothing in common
with us, and so it presents so many challenges to
the local people who are trying to advocate for and
lobby for the needs of their people. The issues that
we have and we're having to deal with now people
who are less interested and less invested in Clovis because
they only have a portion of it, and they're dealing
(06:19):
with so many different issues and needs and that across
these even more diverse districts, and so I mean, Clovis
comes out as a big loser in Prop fifty if
it passes. And that's why you see four of our
five council members fighting against it and passing a resolution
from the City of Clovis saying this is bad for Clovis,
but it's also, in my opinion, bad for everybody in California.
(06:44):
But of course, you know, we're going to focus here
on Clovis and really try and make sure that the
people of Clovis understand just how difficult it would make
things for us to get our voice heard.
Speaker 5 (06:53):
It really dilutes our voice in Washington.
Speaker 1 (06:56):
Well she explained it. Well, thank you, ohing it is
I try to That's that's what it's about. Oh, and
it's going to take care by getting in gear and
doing things just like this and also with the voter
id as well, trying to get a million to get that.
I think most people I think that would pass. I
think people want voter idea.
Speaker 3 (07:10):
I think they do, and I'm really optimistic about that.
You know, I think there's an incredible grassroots effort. You know,
I know you have assemblyment to Mayo here and our
own Assemblyman David Tankypa and even former Speaker McCarthy, and
that there's a really great effort at mobilizing people here
in California to understand what Prop fifty means and to
really get the people out to defeat it, oppose it.
(07:33):
And you know, could we please put Gavin Newsom in
his place?
Speaker 1 (07:37):
Yes, and he would tell the rest of the country
if he gets stumped by his own state that he
shouldn't be president. Absolutely that one as well. Yeah.
Speaker 3 (07:43):
No, you know one other thing I just want to say,
when you're looking at the two sides, the people who
are supporting Prop fifty and the people who are opposing it.
The people who are opposing Prop fifty are talking about
Californians and what it does to our voice and how
we voted for an independent citizen's Redistricting Commission. And if
you listen to the people who are supporting Prop fifty,
none of them are talking about Californians.
Speaker 5 (08:03):
They're talking about Donald Trump. And maybe Texans.
Speaker 3 (08:06):
You know, but if you really want to focus on California,
what's best for California, there's only one side that even
cares well.
Speaker 1 (08:14):
You want to know who everybody's really talking about, Katie Porter.
Speaker 5 (08:19):
That's kind of fun to talk about today.
Speaker 1 (08:20):
Thank you, Mayor pro Tem City of Clovis, Dian Pierce.
Thank you for your time out here.
Speaker 5 (08:24):
Thanks for having me.
Speaker 1 (08:24):
Trevor appreciate it. Hey, we're gonna come back. We're gonna
talk with the Presdent County GOP chair Liz Cole Stott
to see how they're working with Sacramento to defeat it
here in this county. And then we'll be back with
the Simpleman, Carl de my own Reform California. We're live
at the press Box Sports Grills, seventeen eighty five Herndon,
the northwest corner of Herndon and Fowler. Here right next
(08:46):
to all these it's a Trevor nation all over the place.
No On fifty Tour, Sign the voter id petition and
learn out how you can keep fighting it with No
On fifty and let me entice you further. The Dodger
playoff game against the Phillies is on in there. I
think the Eagles football game just started, and I think
they got some good food because they smelled it running
through real quick and back out from the restroom. But
(09:07):
you don't want to mix food, And why did I
mix good food and that and the same thing. Liz
cale Stott, Fresnel County GOP chair, how are you fine?
Speaker 6 (09:14):
Thanks? Great to be here, Trevor, good.
Speaker 1 (09:16):
To have you out here. I'm calling her miss Liberty
because their hat says liberty. And I do want to know,
is a GOP selling the jeans with the flags is
the style?
Speaker 6 (09:25):
But so many people are thinking about it.
Speaker 1 (09:27):
I'm out of women's fast. I don't know what's going
on with it. Are we going back to the bells?
I guess the bells are coming back. The bell bottoms
are coming back.
Speaker 6 (09:34):
That incorporated the flag in the.
Speaker 1 (09:36):
Flag in there? They look good. You guys sell a
lot of stuff. I remember back during the election. I
think I got a Trump duck down there, right yeah, And.
Speaker 7 (09:43):
We still have those and people still love them. So
we're selling them at the fair right now, along with
all of our other Trump gear and these hats, by
the way, I make these for the party.
Speaker 1 (09:52):
There they go all right, it looks like a Missy
Elliott video hat that says liberty on it. Right, it does.
Speaker 7 (10:00):
And they're really fun ones though, are bright gold like
money and they say Trump.
Speaker 1 (10:04):
All right. Well, No On fifty I had the GOP,
the state GOP chair Wilman on Karen Rankin said the
name correctly, and I ask about you know they're going
to be getting some house at funds working out too.
They got quite a big chunk of change. I guess
to fight No On fifty. How what's it like with
(10:24):
the county down down here to work with Sacramento right now?
Speaker 7 (10:27):
So everybody kind of has I feel like parallel programs
right now. We're working hand in hand as much as
we can, but the funds are tight. So locally we
have gone out and we've fund raised as much as
we could for things like yard signs and some of
the walk the I'm sorry not walk pieces, but the
little No On fifty cards that we're given out, as
well as some stickers and some buttons that we've gotten.
(10:50):
We have all of that at the big FROs no Fare,
so we're selling those and using those. We have members
knocking on doors and handing some of that stuff out
as well.
Speaker 1 (10:58):
All right, if people can't make it out to the
fares or a place and get a no on fifty
yard sign and have somebody toilet paper your house.
Speaker 7 (11:05):
Well absolutely, and we're selling them online. We have been,
and we've been delivering them because it's easier as well.
So you can buy your sign online and we're delivering them,
or you can come by my owne over we are,
so yep, it makes it easier for people. It's really
important that they have them out. I know that some
people don't think that the yard signs make that much
(11:27):
of a difference, and maybe they don't, but if they
even influence a couple of voters that haven't been paying
attention and they don't know what that no on fifty
is and they see that, oh somebody there says no
on fifty and they keep seeing it over and over again,
maybe when they get their ballot they'll vote no on fifty.
Speaker 1 (11:41):
And we do need to. And the marketing campaign out
there is it's as fake as that pine tree right there.
Speaker 6 (11:48):
That's a pretty fake.
Speaker 1 (11:48):
Think of that five gig. I wonder how much we're
being zapped here what we're looking at here? Let me
paint the visual. Did you guys notice that back there right,
we're probably all being zap with energy. They disguise them, well,
they look at that. I mean, you can tell it's
a fake tree and then it's all green. Why can't
we do that with oil wells off the coast and
you know, make them look something nice and pretty out there?
(12:09):
So people on the coast, right, we'd look out and
see the oil derecks disguised as mermaids. If we can
do that with trees, why can't we do that with
oil dereks, I guess is my cause?
Speaker 7 (12:19):
But then it might be like Disneyland when they had
the Mermaids and people started dropping the fences trying to
go and save the mermaids.
Speaker 1 (12:26):
I forgot about that. Have you heard any of the
reports of what the Five G and all these towers
are doing. I've just skimmed the surface with it. I
read a few headlines and move on.
Speaker 7 (12:37):
But me either, I mean, I see that it's horrible
for you, but I don't really if.
Speaker 1 (12:42):
We didn't keep dive on it. I always think of this,
if we could see everything in our living room or
even the studio, if we could see all the stuff
that's around us right with all the Internet and the
wireless and all of that. It's just it probably scares us,
wouldn't it.
Speaker 6 (12:55):
I think it would.
Speaker 1 (12:56):
You know.
Speaker 7 (12:56):
Some people were talking about like all the things that
are manufactured that we eat off of that don't get
cleaned before we before we do, And I just have
to say, I don't think about that stuff.
Speaker 1 (13:04):
Yes you can't. Well, I don't want to think about
staying in this state any much longer if it continues
down this slide. That's why everybody is fighting extremely hard
because people don't land. They got their blood and work
and toil and that soil, and they want to turn
this state back around. And it's just a it's a
crime the lies that are perpetrated from this movement that
(13:27):
they really want people to think, and people will because
people aren't as involved in politics as many people out
here and as we are, and they're going to think, oh,
it's the people didn't have the power before, when exactly
the opposite was the fact the people did the maps before.
They're making it seem like they're giving it back to
the people. That man is That's why I'm call him
Governor dipty Doo. Biel's above face mask Gagon gruesome. I
(13:49):
don't like him, Lord, I didn't say I hate him.
I don't like you, k Newsome, I don't.
Speaker 7 (13:55):
I mean, I can't stand in myself either. And he
is lying, and the fact is that Texas had to
do it, So he's lying to the people saying that,
you know, this is basically revenge for what Texas is doing.
But even if that were the case, two wrongs don't
make it right. We had districts that were frankly, they're
Jerry manderd already to a large extent. So this is
(14:19):
only going to take away representatives that were hard for
us to get in the first place.
Speaker 1 (14:23):
Yeah, and I could read a whole fress like I
did today. I read a whole fresnobe dot com article
about Prop fifty and not once did they mention anything
about the Biden dolj being the ones to tell Texas
that they had to go redo their maps. That is
a big story because you never hear that from Newsom,
and you never hear it, and that's this is generis Yeah,
(14:46):
it is. But I'm also hearing states like Missouri and
some of these other red states are going well, all right, Newsom,
We'll take it to that task right there. And they're
redistricting as well. I saw a map up in Michigan.
It looked like a scorpion else somebody described it as.
And when I think about the public commission out here
that has been in place since two thousand and eight,
(15:07):
it's it's not a nonpartisan already. H Tom McClintock, my congressman,
but also he's a congressman of a guy up in
Lake Tahoe.
Speaker 7 (15:17):
That's a crazy map exactly. I mean, he's a great congressman.
But like I said that, the districts are jerrymanderd as
it is. This is extreme just to get rid of
Republican representatives.
Speaker 1 (15:30):
Indeed, well, I guess they can give out the website
where people can get all their no on fifty.
Speaker 6 (15:36):
Stuff fresnogop dot org.
Speaker 7 (15:39):
Or you can come out to the Big Fresne Fair
and get your doorhanngers or your little walk cards or
your little button.
Speaker 1 (15:44):
How's a fair been?
Speaker 6 (15:46):
The fair has been. It's been really good.
Speaker 1 (15:48):
You've been out there for quite a few years. Out there,
every intendants look to be about average.
Speaker 7 (15:54):
No, I would say it's light, is it? It is
lighter than it has been in the past. I think that.
Speaker 1 (16:00):
It's out the weather because it wasn't one hundred and
five like it was a few really expensive.
Speaker 6 (16:03):
Yeah, you know, the prices have gone up, Like I go,
we'll like everything else, I know.
Speaker 7 (16:07):
I mean, I work at the booth, but also I
love to eat there, so I like the cinnamon rolls.
I eat those at close Fest, Big Hat Days and
Big Fresno Fair. And then the kettle corn. So I
got like that four foot tall kettle corn. It was
thirty dollars, stop it, Yes, thirty dollars. I was walking
out with it because I didn't want to drop it,
and somebody yelled at me and said it was almost
as big as I was, and I was like, I know,
(16:28):
but I paid good money for it and I'm taking
it with me.
Speaker 2 (16:30):
Wow.
Speaker 1 (16:31):
Well, I guess that's a lot of popcorn. I guess
you could probably sell that in individual bags and double
your profit.
Speaker 6 (16:37):
There's about that much left. And I bought it on that.
Speaker 1 (16:41):
Kettle corn. Chicken wings, and twinkies are hard to stop eating.
Speaker 7 (16:44):
They are, Yeah, well except for the twinkies, the kettle corn,
and the cinnamon rolls, which is why I'm grateful. It's
only a couple times a year for all those things.
Speaker 1 (16:53):
Well, listen, the Big fair is is it still on.
Speaker 6 (16:56):
It this weekend? In week NP, So come by and
see us.
Speaker 1 (16:59):
Well, you can go by and see them there, or
you can come by here. We'll be out here till
six o'clock. Why do you need to come out here, Well,
you can first come out here and make sure that
you sign the petition looking for a million signatures, not today,
but to add to it, to get a million for
the voter id to get that on the ballot out
here as well. Liz Colstott, thank you for coming out.
(17:21):
Appreciate your time, Miss Liberty.
Speaker 6 (17:23):
Thanks for having me Trevor. It's always a pleasure.
Speaker 1 (17:25):
You bet you. We're gonna come back to some of
them in Carl Demyo and Reform California. We're live at
the press Box Sports Grill, seventeen eighty five, Herndon on
the northwest corner of Herndon and Fowler at All D's.
It's a Trevor nation all over the place. No On
fifty tour. If you're anywhere near the vicinity of the
northwest corner of Herndon and Fowler, right next to the
Al D's here. It's see all over the place.
Speaker 4 (17:48):
No.
Speaker 1 (17:48):
On fifty tour with some of them in Carl de Mayo.
You didn't take a break. You were working the crowd.
My friend, I haven't taken a break for like four weeks.
We just did one.
Speaker 4 (17:59):
Point five million handwritten letters statewide, a lot of them
coming here to Fresno because Assembly Member David Tanky Pah
has helped partner with us to raise resources for that,
the No. One fifty and the Voter I D Initiative.
I've been looking for partners up and down the state
of California, and David Tanky PAP When I first met him,
I was just like, where have you been?
Speaker 7 (18:20):
Mann?
Speaker 1 (18:20):
I am so glad you are here, and he is.
Speaker 4 (18:23):
He's got an amazing future because he knows he needs
to organize the valley and he's doing a great job
of it.
Speaker 1 (18:29):
I'm thrilled out, as I tell you, for years I
was amazed when I don't want to say you were
just a talk show host, but you are a talk
show host, but you were Reform California and you were
well organized. One of the best well organized machines in
the state. So kudos.
Speaker 4 (18:43):
We need one of those in every region, and that's
what David's going to be building in the valley.
Speaker 1 (18:47):
Well, I'm seeing right here that he's on hold, and
let's welcome onto the show. Similar and David tonky Pa.
Some of them are welcome. Well, how are you guys doing?
Speaker 2 (18:58):
I wish I was writing David, are you there?
Speaker 8 (19:02):
I'm here?
Speaker 1 (19:02):
Can you guys hear me? Well, you're here in spirit? Yes,
we got you. We have a delay, like we're in
Europe and it's the Olympics and you're in Lake Placid.
So we're gonna be quiet and we're gonna allow you
to make your statement to the valley there as simplement.
Speaker 8 (19:18):
Well, my biggest thing is I just want everybody to
appreciate how hard Carl is working. He has been a
warrior since day one. They have punished us. We all
have a new record in Sacramento. We are the fastest
legislators to be kicked off because we're trying to be
as effective as we can to fight for the people
of the valley. I just wanted to say thank you
(19:38):
to Carl. He has not stopped working this entire year.
He did one point five million handwritten letters that even
my sister received, and said, I only opened this because
I saw that it was handwritten and the notes were
on there. So for me, I couldn't be more grateful
to partner with him, because we are going to win
(19:58):
this valley. We're gonna take back California. We need more
people to step up and join us in this effort,
and I couldn't be more grateful to fight with him.
Speaker 1 (20:06):
Well, there you go, that's a good statement. What was
that like signing that many?
Speaker 4 (20:11):
When people said, how did you do one boy? Five million?
I said, one envelope at a time. And it's not me,
It is the thousand. No, it's the thousands of volunteers
who took kits home starting in June and did them
five hundred at a time over a period of a week,
and then brought him back and we stored him. And
(20:32):
then David and I did not know that we were
going to be in a two front war. We didn't
know that Newsom was going to do Prop fifty. We
just thought we were going to do voter I d
send the petition out, But when Newsom put it on
the ballot, we said, Okay, that's it. We're going to
put Prop fifty No on fifty in this mailer as well,
and again David is going to be helping us organize
the entire Central Valley and do rallies. He's already done
(20:54):
the signage, that's all been put up, he's doing walks
those are deployed. I'm coming back with big bus and
we're gonna be joined joining David and other elected officials,
Ali Misceto and others here in the valley at all
of those events. But you know what we're missing right now.
We're missing a lot of people who are sitting on
the couch screaming at Fox News, complaining, but not doing so.
(21:18):
I'm going to urge all of you if you want
to take back your state, and it is absolutely possible,
I will not be asking for you to get active
if it were not absolutely possible. If you want to
take back your state, I need you to get off
the couch and into the fight.
Speaker 1 (21:30):
I need you to go online right now.
Speaker 4 (21:32):
Either come here to the UH Sports press Box Sportscrill.
Speaker 1 (21:37):
Thanks Trevor Or.
Speaker 4 (21:38):
If you can't make it, go online to voter id
Initiative dot com, join us at one of our upcoming events,
say hi to me and David Tonkey Pa. Also, you
can sign the petition online or you can request a
volunteer kit and we'll send it to you. But here's
the deal. David Tonkey pas working hard. I believe I'm
working hard. Trevor Carrey's working hard. But we all need
(22:00):
need you to get off the couch and in the fight.
We can't do this alone. It takes all of us
working together. Yes, and don't have the idea. Well we
heard them. There's people out there doing it. They're getting
it handled. We need everybody.
Speaker 1 (22:11):
Assimilam and David Tangy PA on our little delay here,
I'm gonna give you last say, sir in this conversation.
Go ahead. He thought he was done at one and done.
I thought he was sitting there listening to us. Oh
he's busy. You know this is live radio. See if
we were a podcast. By the way, he's not just
kicking back right now. He's busy.
Speaker 4 (22:29):
I know where he is, and he's working hard to
get resources so that we can fight Prop fifty and
get voter ID on the ballot. So you know, that's
what a team does, is if I'm if he's not there,
that I'm.
Speaker 1 (22:40):
There indeed, and there's not a lot of y'all up
there in Sacramento as well. Oh he is there, he's
back on the Okay, Samily Montana PA will give you
last say here, sir on the little bit of a
live delay. Go ahead, David yep.
Speaker 2 (22:57):
Well, I am glad, I am of trade places. I'm
gonna get more fun that way. Fifty everybody get involved
and if they don't want to do it, off the
door and at least tell fifty press they don't want
to tell the media.
Speaker 1 (23:17):
Brian Ryan, disconnect that there. How did we talk? I
guess we talked from the moon in nineteen sixty ninety.
Believe we went we having these issues anyhow? Go ahead?
Uh yeah, do you think we went? I know I've
YouTube knows me there with Carl than anybody.
Speaker 4 (23:31):
The older I get, the more I start doubting all
sorts of things about what these these people in power.
And the more and the more I'm in the belly
of the beast, I realize they're liars. They're there, they
have no shame, they're untethered, and and the ones that
aren't untethered are actually knowingly sending out uh misinformation. But
I will tell you this anytime. Kevin Newsom's mouth is moving,
(23:53):
he's lying. I'm just gonna say it right now. Anytime
that his mouth is moving, he is lying. I I
try looking for the redeemable and everybody, because everyone you
know is that they're a human being. They may be wrong,
but they're maybe not bad people. I'm just saying. The
guy is all about himself. There is no moral fiber there,
(24:15):
there is no there's no altruistic goal. It is all
about his own personal ambition. And when he's a chameleon,
he will do and say anything together.
Speaker 1 (24:25):
That's a scary thing about somebody in New Jersey that
doesn't know that would vote for him to be the
president when he was mayor of San Francisco. I mean,
there's countless narcissist moments of local media talking to him.
And let's remember, didn't he cheat with his best friend's wife.
Speaker 4 (24:40):
He cheated with his best friend's wife, I mean, I
mean it, then said the alcohol made me do it,
and then years later he's out there drinking thousand dollars
bottles of wine.
Speaker 1 (24:52):
I mean this, sobriety's the worst damn mistake this country's made.
That's his exact quote.
Speaker 4 (24:57):
Oh my, but you're absolutely right, Well, you just hit
on is so important. The reason why we need to
defeat Newsom here in California is that we know the
bad Gavin Newsom, but America doesn't. Can you imagine the
damage he would do to our entire country if he
were actually in the Oval office.
Speaker 1 (25:15):
And you got to see what a chameleon. I remember
his Governor podcast series he did. There were I think
Charlie Kirk was there when he made the comment about
the unfair. Yeah.
Speaker 4 (25:24):
The only episode that Newsom did that did well was
the Charlie Kirk podcast where he.
Speaker 1 (25:30):
Said, my son watches you and you and and Newsom
even stated that no, the trans is not fair poison.
But then the next day he changed the point of view.
So he's a chamelion, he's a liar. But but but
this is a guy. This is a guy who fails up.
Speaker 4 (25:46):
And the reason why he fails up is that he
has very powerful financial backers that control him, that want
to make sure that he's in power so they get
what they want, not the little guy. These are billionaires
that get what they want, and that's that's what the
nature of California's political system.
Speaker 1 (26:02):
And he was smart to not jump in that Biden
calm of fray of the last election. No, he wasn't smart.
He was told he wasn't allowed to. Oh no, no, no,
Gavin Newsom was rubbing up the end. Did you see the.
Speaker 4 (26:13):
The part of her book where she said, I called
Gavin Newssom, but he never did call me back. The
reason why was he was hoping that the oligarchs was
were gonna muscle her out for him, and that's why
he didn't call back.
Speaker 1 (26:26):
Is that the guy has no shame.
Speaker 4 (26:28):
He doesn't want to give his commitment to her that
he's going to not run because he knew.
Speaker 1 (26:33):
Are you saying that spring of the election? Here, when
Biden was out of DC and Newso went back for
his little tour and was walking around the grounds of
the White House with the camera crew, he said, oh,
I just stopped by. I was in the area. I
just stopped by.
Speaker 4 (26:46):
Oh, by the way, I came with a camera crew
that just so happens to be with me. The guy
has no shame.
Speaker 1 (26:52):
And they were asking, is this meaning you have asked
for Ray? Oh no, why would you say something like that?
Heaven forbid? Why are people saying that? What do you mean? Gambling?
And Vegas. What are you talking about? So maybe at
that time he was kind of you're saying he was
thinking he was gonna be the guy. Then, let me
just say he he saw me once in the hallway.
He tried to be my friend, and I'm just like,
(27:12):
I looked at him and said, no, there is there's
none of this.
Speaker 4 (27:16):
There is none of this. And I waved my hand.
I said there's none of this, and I just kept
walking because I'm not gonna fake it. I'm not gonna
fake it. I'm sick and tired, apologist.
Speaker 1 (27:25):
How does he ever pop into any assembly sessions?
Speaker 4 (27:28):
Well, when I was sworn and he kept looking at me,
my spouse, my partners, he said to me, He's like, newsom's.
Speaker 1 (27:33):
Been staring at you. I'm like, oh, he's sitting in
the corner. Great, wonderful? Was he mad dog in you?
I have no idea. I have no idea.
Speaker 4 (27:42):
I don't even know if it were it was staring
at me, he might have been staring at some hot
chick right behind me.
Speaker 1 (27:46):
I don't roll in like a school principle in the
back of the classroom. Is that how it is? Or no? No?
Speaker 4 (27:51):
He rarely no, No, He rarely. He rarely like hangs out.
He's usually hanging out with billionaires. But you know, every
once in a while he will be walking through like
the corridors, the corridors and whatnot.
Speaker 1 (28:03):
But they're all phony up there. I'm just saying that
they're complete phonies. Let me ask you. I asked this
with some of them, iNtanga Pa, I guess you've got
a staff, like six seven or so. We have staff.
We have seven.
Speaker 4 (28:19):
State government staffers. But I have a team at Reform
California that includes another fifteen to twenty people, and then
we have an army of more than fifteen thousand volunteers.
Speaker 1 (28:30):
I say a few medically, quite a few today.
Speaker 4 (28:33):
And I want every elected official on the Republican side
to see themselves as more than an elected official. They
need to be warriors. They need to become warriors. They
don't need to see their job as inside that building.
They need to see their job as outside of that building.
Their job is not to hit the button the right way.
Speaker 1 (28:49):
Some of them don't even do that. Their job is
to go out.
Speaker 4 (28:52):
And light a fire in every district and raise the
awareness of voters so that we can change that political system.
Speaker 1 (28:59):
Well, if you guys have what you say, six or
seven staffers, and with all the Democrats up there, think
how many Democrat staffers they get more than we.
Speaker 4 (29:06):
Do they get they get many more staff there.
Speaker 1 (29:09):
And why is that?
Speaker 4 (29:10):
Because they're in charge and they get to call the shots.
And I always say it's not you know, you're never
gonna have a fair fight. If people are saying, oh,
you know, Democrats are't gonna be fair. Yeah, and the
day ends and why Okay, so suck it up. Buttercup,
Mama didn't give you a fair fight. But it's a
fight worth fighting and still winnable. And that's why I'm
(29:31):
you want a better government, you will get the government
you're willing to fight for. Go online right now voter
id initiative dot com, contribute it, volunteer for signature, sign
the darn initiative, or at least share the website. Come
to one of my events, do something. If all of
us do something, we are going to change the trajectory
(29:53):
of the state.
Speaker 1 (29:53):
We will take it back. I regretted it later when
you started invading nations and nation building, but when Governor
Bush was running in ninety nine, I remember that's the
first time I wasn't doing news talk, but I said,
I'm gonna get my older kids and we're gonna go
hang door hangers to remind Republicans to get it was
like a little thing. I took the kids down. George
Bush was at a hangar airport hangar, and I remember
(30:15):
that was the first little step of actually not complaining
and doing a little something. Yep. And this is a
little something. To sign this petition. It doesn't take you
much and to get a packet and to review it
and look at it and realize how important is if
you want to stay in the state, you got to
do stuff like this because if we don't, it's going
to continue the downhill spiral and we'll all just get
(30:38):
grandma and move to Arkansas.
Speaker 4 (30:40):
And let me tell you, buddy, you can move you say,
shut up, butter go, yeah, suck it up by chuck
it up. But you can move to a red state.
But if you think that state's going to remain red, no,
the contagion will follow you. My son's in Waco and
he's talking about the liberalism KO. That's not even Houston
or Dallas. I can't tell you how many elected officials
from across the country call me and say, would you
(31:01):
stop sending your people here? And I said, it's not me,
it's not I want. I want our people to stay here.
I want to change in my state. But what's happening
is that people think, oh, I've got to leave California
and it will be better on grass is greener on
the other side.
Speaker 1 (31:15):
Nope, No governments can change. You know.
Speaker 4 (31:17):
It doesn't change mosquitoes, alligators, heat and humidity in Texas
and Florida.
Speaker 1 (31:21):
That doesn't change.
Speaker 4 (31:22):
No.
Speaker 1 (31:22):
In tornadoes, yes, and got to bring up the tornadoes.
So listen, if you want to stay in this state,
you want to make it good for your kids, your
grandkids and your great grandkids to come, you need to
do something about it. And that's why we were out
here today as some of them and Carl to Maya.
I just want to thank you some of them, and
Tony Pass, Emily, woman Mesita. Uh. You guys are up there.
(31:43):
You're you're the new group up there, and you're making waves.
And that's what it's going to take. And I wish
we could get some of the maybe more traditional to
get more involved here. We will in time, in time,
my friend, Thank you, thank you, You've got to be
a hustle and let's just plug one more time. Saturday
at the Transit Center. Yeah, Saturday, not Transient Center.
Speaker 4 (32:04):
Yeah, it's Saturday, the eighteenth, Saturday eighteenth. I got it
wrong earlier. It's not this Saturday. It's next Saturday, eighteenth,
three o'clock. And that's Third Street in Clovis. Yeah, you can,
bosso be out there and all that correct and free, free,
no one prop fifty long signs. You can get the
full list at voter id Initiative dot com. Click under
events and you can come to any of our events
(32:26):
in Central Valley.
Speaker 1 (32:27):
Well, I'm really supply surprised neither of us had had
a fly flying our mouth here today. I've been talking
about red my lips. It's the valley. I guess it's
something with ad because I remember once a year do
they grow things in the valley. Yeah, I know about
the few things, man, just a few. Hey, thank you sir,
Thank you so much. It's great partnering with you. Hey,
thank handshake right there, buddy, Thank you. We're live at
(32:47):
the press Box Sports Grill, seventeen eighty five Herndon. Thank
you to the to the press Box Sports Grill for
having us out here if you want to come on out.
We're shutting down here in a few minutes at six.
But there's some all games going on in there as well,
So Trevor Nation all over the place. No On fifty
two of the fight actually will continue all the way
(33:08):
until November fourth. Get the word out. No On fifty
Why does it matter, Well, it should matter to all
Californians because the state of California is stepping in and
has actually come in and revolted against the will of
the people. This has already voted in this state. The
people of the state of California said, we will determining,
(33:29):
determine the mapping the redistricting to decide congressional representation, and
that normally changes. I remember in twenty twenty going through
it talking with Alex Havley and Sam la Quing Valley Sun.
He was involved with the mapping of this, and that's
really the first time I ever really learned a lot nothing,
you know, and got involved and found out how it
all happened. And I knew in California that that's what
(33:51):
it was. It was a people commissioned We the people
told the state, no politicians, you're not going to decide
who your voters are. We're going to decide the maps.
So that's how it's always been in the state. Biden's
doj stepped in and told Texas a few years ago,
you got to remap you got a redistrict. They stepped
in and did it well. Democrats didn't like the way
(34:13):
that that went in Texas, so Newsom decided to just
blame Texas. Remember all those Democrats in Texas leaving the state,
fleeing so they didn't have to have to vote. They're
out of their minds. And so what Newsom has done
is now put a lot of money. Boy, they're coming
out the pocket to knock it on this one, because
what it's going to allow is at least now up
(34:33):
to possibly five Republican congressional seats back in DC are
going to be remapped here in California, and that will
give at least five more additional seats. Of the twenty
twenty six midterms that are coming up, you're gonna have
people that have jobs as a Republican congressmen that don't Boom,
we just eliminated it. It doesn't matter that they were
(34:55):
voted in by the will of the people. No so
when you hear all these commercials out there talking about
the fact that we're giving it back to the people,
it couldn't be more of a Biels Above, Live from
the Pits of Hades. And that's why Colling Governor Biells
above Satan dipty dew and face mask gag and gruesome
because he's all involved like that. And as a simum,
(35:16):
when Karl Demo was rightfully stating out here, he is
a chameleon. The Assistant Trevor Kerry Show in London Valley's
Power Talk
Boy, I tell you what, Yes on fifty thing has
so many lies involved with it. That's why we're out
here doing a show called no On fifty. We're live
at the press Box Sports Grill right at the northwest
corner of Herndon and Fowler. With me here in the
five o'clock hour, the City of Clovis Mayor Pro Temp.
(00:20):
Diane Pierce. Diane, welcome, Thank you for having us to
your fine city.
Speaker 2 (00:24):
Ah.
Speaker 3 (00:24):
We are glad to have you here, especially for a
cause like this, because this is so important and I
appreciate you being out here. What a fun afternoon, great weather,
and I appreciate the invitation to come and talk about
this with you.
Speaker 1 (00:36):
Yeah, I had to had to leave yesterday. I got
a hotel here last night. You know, I didn't want
to make a long drive and then have to do
this to do the show here. I wonder was there
ever a time wait, have you ever heard way back
in the day maybe where it was discussed, Oh, let's
just become one city, you know, there's it always been Minneapolis,
Saint Paul, Dallas for no I.
Speaker 3 (00:54):
Mean, Clovis has a unique flavor. We've got our rodeo,
we've got all of our.
Speaker 1 (00:59):
I'm not bringing it up for now, but have you
ever heard of anything back in the world?
Speaker 4 (01:02):
Never?
Speaker 3 (01:03):
I think, always very distinct and different, but hopefully we are.
Speaker 1 (01:08):
I'm sure back in the day you think about it,
old town Clovis and old town Fresno, which is just
downtown Fresno. Yeah, that's quite a way apart back exactly. Yeah,
when they got founded, people would be like, well, he's
over in Clovis for the week, probably back with horse
right right. Have you ever seen any of those books?
I loaned it to somebody, never got it back. But
in the grocery store like Fresno or Clovis, they show
(01:30):
all the old pictures. Yes, yes, I just love to
look through that stuff.
Speaker 5 (01:33):
Yeah, it's very very cool all that history.
Speaker 3 (01:36):
And you know, I think one of the things I
love the most about Clovis is we are so interested
in not just retaining our history and who we've been
and why we are how we are, but we truly
honor all of that stuff as well and want to
make sure that the next generations understand where we came from,
why we talk about the Clovis way of life, why
(01:56):
we have things like the rodeo and Clovisfest and Big
Hat Days and all these things that really make Clovis
extra special.
Speaker 1 (02:02):
Do you guys just have a real clamp down with
the police department and the media, because after I hear
all these events where times alcohol is involved, I never
I don't even think I've reported on a bad story
that's happened with that many people.
Speaker 5 (02:15):
I really, I mean, I think it is two things.
Speaker 3 (02:17):
We have an outstanding public safety department and all of
those things are really taking care of. But we really
have a great group of citizens who truly want to
make sure that these community events stay viable and family
friendly and all of those things.
Speaker 5 (02:31):
And so it's just it's not.
Speaker 1 (02:34):
Normal for a city to all pull in in a
weekend the equivalent of their population, because aren't some of
those one hundred thousand people come through over some of
these days events?
Speaker 5 (02:43):
Yeah, particularly the rodeo.
Speaker 3 (02:44):
The rodeo is probably the biggest one where we see
a lot of people out of towners coming in and
staying in Clovis and enjoying that.
Speaker 5 (02:52):
But yeah, it's good fun, good fun.
Speaker 1 (02:55):
When Shakira came and played at Valley Children's did did
close seeing uptick another they said it brought in like
two million in additional revenue from outside. Did you hear
anything here about the business.
Speaker 3 (03:05):
I didn't hear anything, but I mean that was already
relatively still relatively recent as far as like when those
types of receipts and stuff come in and we would
get reports on it. But yeah, those one time events
are a little harder to pinpoint.
Speaker 1 (03:18):
Well, I'd like to thank your fellow council member Drew
Bessinger came by in the three o'clock hour. You guys
have been talking about how Clovis is going to be
carved up into three districts, and Diana explain that how
No on fifty would stop that and Yes on fifty
what it would do to Clovis and their representation in Congress.
Speaker 3 (03:39):
Yeah, you know, Clovis wasn't thrilled with the most recent
redistricting after the twenty twenty census because we had been
a little more connected to our metropolitan area and the
most recent lines that were drawn following that linked us
to Bakersfield. So obviously, you know, California lost some of
our representation because our state is so poorly run that
(04:01):
people had left and so we have shrunk in our
representation in Congress. And so what our redistricting commission did
essentially was wound up pitting what had been the Clovis district,
which had previously been represented by Devin Nunis and then
Speaker Kevin McCarthy is who kind of took it. They
took those two districts and put them together essentially, and
(04:22):
so they were going to be able to get rid
of one or the other if they ran against each other.
And so we're currently represented by Vince Fong, who is
doing a fantastic job and is incredibly responsive to not
just the local elected officials, but to Clovis as a community.
He's been here a lot. He really cares about being
a good representative for Clovis. But if this goes through,
(04:43):
rather than the difficulty of Clovis being connected to Baker's Field,
Clovis would not just have one representative.
Speaker 5 (04:51):
It wouldn't just be.
Speaker 1 (04:54):
And you know, some.
Speaker 3 (04:55):
People are like, oh, you have to pick up the
phone extra times, but it's more than that, really, because
if you look at a city and you see what
part of our population would be represented by one of
those three members of Congress, you recognize that when you
look at the entirety of their district.
Speaker 5 (05:10):
We're just a fraction of their voters.
Speaker 3 (05:12):
And that means that we're only going to have a
fraction of their attention where exactly, So each of those
three representatives, he or she is only going to have
that much concern for the voters here. And I don't
mean to take anything away from any of the representatives.
They could be fantastic people, but that's just the reality
of representation, and particularly the kind of northern and eastern
(05:35):
part of Clovis that would have the district that Drew
talks the most about, because that's the one that's connected
all the way to the Nevada border and all the
way up to like Alpine and all the way down
to San Bergentino, and just thinking about the logistics of
representing that type of space, and when you think about
the needs of those different regions all lumped together, even
the needs of Clovis are going to be pitted against
(05:58):
needs of areas that have had ssolutely nothing in common
with us, and so it presents so many challenges to
the local people who are trying to advocate for and
lobby for the needs of their people. The issues that
we have and we're having to deal with now people
who are less interested and less invested in Clovis because
they only have a portion of it, and they're dealing
(06:19):
with so many different issues and needs and that across
these even more diverse districts, and so I mean, Clovis
comes out as a big loser in Prop fifty if
it passes. And that's why you see four of our
five council members fighting against it and passing a resolution
from the City of Clovis saying this is bad for Clovis,
but it's also, in my opinion, bad for everybody in California.
(06:44):
But of course, you know, we're going to focus here
on Clovis and really try and make sure that the
people of Clovis understand just how difficult it would make
things for us to get our voice heard.
Speaker 5 (06:53):
It really dilutes our voice in Washington.
Speaker 1 (06:56):
Well she explained it. Well, thank you, ohing it is
I try to That's that's what it's about. Oh, and
it's going to take care by getting in gear and
doing things just like this and also with the voter
id as well, trying to get a million to get that.
I think most people I think that would pass. I
think people want voter idea.
Speaker 3 (07:10):
I think they do, and I'm really optimistic about that.
You know, I think there's an incredible grassroots effort. You know,
I know you have assemblyment to Mayo here and our
own Assemblyman David Tankypa and even former Speaker McCarthy, and
that there's a really great effort at mobilizing people here
in California to understand what Prop fifty means and to
really get the people out to defeat it, oppose it.
(07:33):
And you know, could we please put Gavin Newsom in
his place?
Speaker 1 (07:37):
Yes, and he would tell the rest of the country
if he gets stumped by his own state that he
shouldn't be president. Absolutely that one as well. Yeah.
Speaker 3 (07:43):
No, you know one other thing I just want to say,
when you're looking at the two sides, the people who
are supporting Prop fifty and the people who are opposing it.
The people who are opposing Prop fifty are talking about
Californians and what it does to our voice and how
we voted for an independent citizen's Redistricting Commission. And if
you listen to the people who are supporting Prop fifty,
none of them are talking about Californians.
Speaker 5 (08:03):
They're talking about Donald Trump. And maybe Texans.
Speaker 3 (08:06):
You know, but if you really want to focus on California,
what's best for California, there's only one side that even
cares well.
Speaker 1 (08:14):
You want to know who everybody's really talking about, Katie Porter.
Speaker 5 (08:19):
That's kind of fun to talk about today.
Speaker 1 (08:20):
Thank you, Mayor pro Tem City of Clovis, Dian Pierce.
Thank you for your time out here.
Speaker 5 (08:24):
Thanks for having me.
Speaker 1 (08:24):
Trevor appreciate it. Hey, we're gonna come back. We're gonna
talk with the Presdent County GOP chair Liz Cole Stott
to see how they're working with Sacramento to defeat it
here in this county. And then we'll be back with
the Simpleman, Carl de my own Reform California. We're live
at the press Box Sports Grills, seventeen eighty five Herndon,
the northwest corner of Herndon and Fowler. Here right next
(08:46):
to all these it's a Trevor nation all over the place.
No On fifty Tour, Sign the voter id petition and
learn out how you can keep fighting it with No
On fifty and let me entice you further. The Dodger
playoff game against the Phillies is on in there. I
think the Eagles football game just started, and I think
they got some good food because they smelled it running
through real quick and back out from the restroom. But
(09:07):
you don't want to mix food, And why did I
mix good food and that and the same thing. Liz
cale Stott, Fresnel County GOP chair, how are you fine?
Speaker 6 (09:14):
Thanks? Great to be here, Trevor, good.
Speaker 1 (09:16):
To have you out here. I'm calling her miss Liberty
because their hat says liberty. And I do want to know,
is a GOP selling the jeans with the flags is
the style?
Speaker 6 (09:25):
But so many people are thinking about it.
Speaker 1 (09:27):
I'm out of women's fast. I don't know what's going
on with it. Are we going back to the bells?
I guess the bells are coming back. The bell bottoms
are coming back.
Speaker 6 (09:34):
That incorporated the flag in the.
Speaker 1 (09:36):
Flag in there? They look good. You guys sell a
lot of stuff. I remember back during the election. I
think I got a Trump duck down there, right yeah, And.
Speaker 7 (09:43):
We still have those and people still love them. So
we're selling them at the fair right now, along with
all of our other Trump gear and these hats, by
the way, I make these for the party.
Speaker 1 (09:52):
There they go all right, it looks like a Missy
Elliott video hat that says liberty on it. Right, it does.
Speaker 7 (10:00):
And they're really fun ones though, are bright gold like
money and they say Trump.
Speaker 1 (10:04):
All right. Well, No On fifty I had the GOP,
the state GOP chair Wilman on Karen Rankin said the
name correctly, and I ask about you know they're going
to be getting some house at funds working out too.
They got quite a big chunk of change. I guess
to fight No On fifty. How what's it like with
(10:24):
the county down down here to work with Sacramento right now?
Speaker 7 (10:27):
So everybody kind of has I feel like parallel programs
right now. We're working hand in hand as much as
we can, but the funds are tight. So locally we
have gone out and we've fund raised as much as
we could for things like yard signs and some of
the walk the I'm sorry not walk pieces, but the
little No On fifty cards that we're given out, as
well as some stickers and some buttons that we've gotten.
(10:50):
We have all of that at the big FROs no Fare,
so we're selling those and using those. We have members
knocking on doors and handing some of that stuff out
as well.
Speaker 1 (10:58):
All right, if people can't make it out to the
fares or a place and get a no on fifty
yard sign and have somebody toilet paper your house.
Speaker 7 (11:05):
Well absolutely, and we're selling them online. We have been,
and we've been delivering them because it's easier as well.
So you can buy your sign online and we're delivering them,
or you can come by my owne over we are,
so yep, it makes it easier for people. It's really
important that they have them out. I know that some
people don't think that the yard signs make that much
(11:27):
of a difference, and maybe they don't, but if they
even influence a couple of voters that haven't been paying
attention and they don't know what that no on fifty
is and they see that, oh somebody there says no
on fifty and they keep seeing it over and over again,
maybe when they get their ballot they'll vote no on fifty.
Speaker 1 (11:41):
And we do need to. And the marketing campaign out
there is it's as fake as that pine tree right there.
Speaker 6 (11:48):
That's a pretty fake.
Speaker 1 (11:48):
Think of that five gig. I wonder how much we're
being zapped here what we're looking at here? Let me
paint the visual. Did you guys notice that back there right,
we're probably all being zap with energy. They disguise them, well,
they look at that. I mean, you can tell it's
a fake tree and then it's all green. Why can't
we do that with oil wells off the coast and
you know, make them look something nice and pretty out there?
(12:09):
So people on the coast, right, we'd look out and
see the oil derecks disguised as mermaids. If we can
do that with trees, why can't we do that with
oil dereks, I guess is my cause?
Speaker 7 (12:19):
But then it might be like Disneyland when they had
the Mermaids and people started dropping the fences trying to
go and save the mermaids.
Speaker 1 (12:26):
I forgot about that. Have you heard any of the
reports of what the Five G and all these towers
are doing. I've just skimmed the surface with it. I
read a few headlines and move on.
Speaker 7 (12:37):
But me either, I mean, I see that it's horrible
for you, but I don't really if.
Speaker 1 (12:42):
We didn't keep dive on it. I always think of this,
if we could see everything in our living room or
even the studio, if we could see all the stuff
that's around us right with all the Internet and the
wireless and all of that. It's just it probably scares us,
wouldn't it.
Speaker 6 (12:55):
I think it would.
Speaker 1 (12:56):
You know.
Speaker 7 (12:56):
Some people were talking about like all the things that
are manufactured that we eat off of that don't get
cleaned before we before we do, And I just have
to say, I don't think about that stuff.
Speaker 1 (13:04):
Yes you can't. Well, I don't want to think about
staying in this state any much longer if it continues
down this slide. That's why everybody is fighting extremely hard
because people don't land. They got their blood and work
and toil and that soil, and they want to turn
this state back around. And it's just a it's a
crime the lies that are perpetrated from this movement that
(13:27):
they really want people to think, and people will because
people aren't as involved in politics as many people out
here and as we are, and they're going to think, oh,
it's the people didn't have the power before, when exactly
the opposite was the fact the people did the maps before.
They're making it seem like they're giving it back to
the people. That man is That's why I'm call him
Governor dipty Doo. Biel's above face mask Gagon gruesome. I
(13:49):
don't like him, Lord, I didn't say I hate him.
I don't like you, k Newsome, I don't.
Speaker 7 (13:55):
I mean, I can't stand in myself either. And he
is lying, and the fact is that Texas had to
do it, So he's lying to the people saying that,
you know, this is basically revenge for what Texas is doing.
But even if that were the case, two wrongs don't
make it right. We had districts that were frankly, they're
Jerry manderd already to a large extent. So this is
(14:19):
only going to take away representatives that were hard for
us to get in the first place.
Speaker 1 (14:23):
Yeah, and I could read a whole fress like I
did today. I read a whole fresnobe dot com article
about Prop fifty and not once did they mention anything
about the Biden dolj being the ones to tell Texas
that they had to go redo their maps. That is
a big story because you never hear that from Newsom,
and you never hear it, and that's this is generis Yeah,
(14:46):
it is. But I'm also hearing states like Missouri and
some of these other red states are going well, all right, Newsom,
We'll take it to that task right there. And they're
redistricting as well. I saw a map up in Michigan.
It looked like a scorpion else somebody described it as.
And when I think about the public commission out here
that has been in place since two thousand and eight,
(15:07):
it's it's not a nonpartisan already. H Tom McClintock, my congressman,
but also he's a congressman of a guy up in
Lake Tahoe.
Speaker 7 (15:17):
That's a crazy map exactly. I mean, he's a great congressman.
But like I said that, the districts are jerrymanderd as
it is. This is extreme just to get rid of
Republican representatives.
Speaker 1 (15:30):
Indeed, well, I guess they can give out the website
where people can get all their no on fifty.
Speaker 6 (15:36):
Stuff fresnogop dot org.
Speaker 7 (15:39):
Or you can come out to the Big Fresne Fair
and get your doorhanngers or your little walk cards or
your little button.
Speaker 1 (15:44):
How's a fair been?
Speaker 6 (15:46):
The fair has been. It's been really good.
Speaker 1 (15:48):
You've been out there for quite a few years. Out there,
every intendants look to be about average.
Speaker 7 (15:54):
No, I would say it's light, is it? It is
lighter than it has been in the past. I think that.
Speaker 1 (16:00):
It's out the weather because it wasn't one hundred and
five like it was a few really expensive.
Speaker 6 (16:03):
Yeah, you know, the prices have gone up, Like I go,
we'll like everything else, I know.
Speaker 7 (16:07):
I mean, I work at the booth, but also I
love to eat there, so I like the cinnamon rolls.
I eat those at close Fest, Big Hat Days and
Big Fresno Fair. And then the kettle corn. So I
got like that four foot tall kettle corn. It was
thirty dollars, stop it, Yes, thirty dollars. I was walking
out with it because I didn't want to drop it,
and somebody yelled at me and said it was almost
as big as I was, and I was like, I know,
(16:28):
but I paid good money for it and I'm taking
it with me.
Speaker 2 (16:30):
Wow.
Speaker 1 (16:31):
Well, I guess that's a lot of popcorn. I guess
you could probably sell that in individual bags and double
your profit.
Speaker 6 (16:37):
There's about that much left. And I bought it on that.
Speaker 1 (16:41):
Kettle corn. Chicken wings, and twinkies are hard to stop eating.
Speaker 7 (16:44):
They are, Yeah, well except for the twinkies, the kettle corn,
and the cinnamon rolls, which is why I'm grateful. It's
only a couple times a year for all those things.
Speaker 1 (16:53):
Well, listen, the Big fair is is it still on.
Speaker 6 (16:56):
It this weekend? In week NP, So come by and
see us.
Speaker 1 (16:59):
Well, you can go by and see them there, or
you can come by here. We'll be out here till
six o'clock. Why do you need to come out here, Well,
you can first come out here and make sure that
you sign the petition looking for a million signatures, not today,
but to add to it, to get a million for
the voter id to get that on the ballot out
here as well. Liz Colstott, thank you for coming out.
(17:21):
Appreciate your time, Miss Liberty.
Speaker 6 (17:23):
Thanks for having me Trevor. It's always a pleasure.
Speaker 1 (17:25):
You bet you. We're gonna come back to some of
them in Carl Demyo and Reform California. We're live at
the press Box Sports Grill, seventeen eighty five, Herndon on
the northwest corner of Herndon and Fowler at All D's.
It's a Trevor nation all over the place. No On
fifty tour. If you're anywhere near the vicinity of the
northwest corner of Herndon and Fowler, right next to the
Al D's here. It's see all over the place.
Speaker 4 (17:48):
No.
Speaker 1 (17:48):
On fifty tour with some of them in Carl de Mayo.
You didn't take a break. You were working the crowd.
My friend, I haven't taken a break for like four weeks.
We just did one.
Speaker 4 (17:59):
Point five million handwritten letters statewide, a lot of them
coming here to Fresno because Assembly Member David Tanky Pah
has helped partner with us to raise resources for that,
the No. One fifty and the Voter I D Initiative.
I've been looking for partners up and down the state
of California, and David Tanky PAP When I first met him,
I was just like, where have you been?
Speaker 7 (18:20):
Mann?
Speaker 1 (18:20):
I am so glad you are here, and he is.
Speaker 4 (18:23):
He's got an amazing future because he knows he needs
to organize the valley and he's doing a great job
of it.
Speaker 1 (18:29):
I'm thrilled out, as I tell you, for years I
was amazed when I don't want to say you were
just a talk show host, but you are a talk
show host, but you were Reform California and you were
well organized. One of the best well organized machines in
the state. So kudos.
Speaker 4 (18:43):
We need one of those in every region, and that's
what David's going to be building in the valley.
Speaker 1 (18:47):
Well, I'm seeing right here that he's on hold, and
let's welcome onto the show. Similar and David tonky Pa.
Some of them are welcome. Well, how are you guys doing?
Speaker 2 (18:58):
I wish I was writing David, are you there?
Speaker 8 (19:02):
I'm here?
Speaker 1 (19:02):
Can you guys hear me? Well, you're here in spirit? Yes,
we got you. We have a delay, like we're in
Europe and it's the Olympics and you're in Lake Placid.
So we're gonna be quiet and we're gonna allow you
to make your statement to the valley there as simplement.
Speaker 8 (19:18):
Well, my biggest thing is I just want everybody to
appreciate how hard Carl is working. He has been a
warrior since day one. They have punished us. We all
have a new record in Sacramento. We are the fastest
legislators to be kicked off because we're trying to be
as effective as we can to fight for the people
of the valley. I just wanted to say thank you
(19:38):
to Carl. He has not stopped working this entire year.
He did one point five million handwritten letters that even
my sister received, and said, I only opened this because
I saw that it was handwritten and the notes were
on there. So for me, I couldn't be more grateful
to partner with him, because we are going to win
(19:58):
this valley. We're gonna take back California. We need more
people to step up and join us in this effort,
and I couldn't be more grateful to fight with him.
Speaker 1 (20:06):
Well, there you go, that's a good statement. What was
that like signing that many?
Speaker 4 (20:11):
When people said, how did you do one boy? Five million?
I said, one envelope at a time. And it's not me,
It is the thousand. No, it's the thousands of volunteers
who took kits home starting in June and did them
five hundred at a time over a period of a week,
and then brought him back and we stored him. And
(20:32):
then David and I did not know that we were
going to be in a two front war. We didn't
know that Newsom was going to do Prop fifty. We
just thought we were going to do voter I d
send the petition out, But when Newsom put it on
the ballot, we said, Okay, that's it. We're going to
put Prop fifty No on fifty in this mailer as well,
and again David is going to be helping us organize
the entire Central Valley and do rallies. He's already done
(20:54):
the signage, that's all been put up, he's doing walks
those are deployed. I'm coming back with big bus and
we're gonna be joined joining David and other elected officials,
Ali Misceto and others here in the valley at all
of those events. But you know what we're missing right now.
We're missing a lot of people who are sitting on
the couch screaming at Fox News, complaining, but not doing so.
(21:18):
I'm going to urge all of you if you want
to take back your state, and it is absolutely possible,
I will not be asking for you to get active
if it were not absolutely possible. If you want to
take back your state, I need you to get off
the couch and into the fight.
Speaker 1 (21:30):
I need you to go online right now.
Speaker 4 (21:32):
Either come here to the UH Sports press Box Sportscrill.
Speaker 1 (21:37):
Thanks Trevor Or.
Speaker 4 (21:38):
If you can't make it, go online to voter id
Initiative dot com, join us at one of our upcoming events,
say hi to me and David Tonkey Pa. Also, you
can sign the petition online or you can request a
volunteer kit and we'll send it to you. But here's
the deal. David Tonkey pas working hard. I believe I'm
working hard. Trevor Carrey's working hard. But we all need
(22:00):
need you to get off the couch and in the fight.
We can't do this alone. It takes all of us
working together. Yes, and don't have the idea. Well we
heard them. There's people out there doing it. They're getting
it handled. We need everybody.
Speaker 1 (22:11):
Assimilam and David Tangy PA on our little delay here,
I'm gonna give you last say, sir in this conversation.
Go ahead. He thought he was done at one and done.
I thought he was sitting there listening to us. Oh
he's busy. You know this is live radio. See if
we were a podcast. By the way, he's not just
kicking back right now. He's busy.
Speaker 4 (22:29):
I know where he is, and he's working hard to
get resources so that we can fight Prop fifty and
get voter ID on the ballot. So you know, that's
what a team does, is if I'm if he's not there,
that I'm.
Speaker 1 (22:40):
There indeed, and there's not a lot of y'all up
there in Sacramento as well. Oh he is there, he's
back on the Okay, Samily Montana PA will give you
last say here, sir on the little bit of a
live delay. Go ahead, David yep.
Speaker 2 (22:57):
Well, I am glad, I am of trade places. I'm
gonna get more fun that way. Fifty everybody get involved
and if they don't want to do it, off the
door and at least tell fifty press they don't want
to tell the media.
Speaker 1 (23:17):
Brian Ryan, disconnect that there. How did we talk? I
guess we talked from the moon in nineteen sixty ninety.
Believe we went we having these issues anyhow? Go ahead?
Uh yeah, do you think we went? I know I've
YouTube knows me there with Carl than anybody.
Speaker 4 (23:31):
The older I get, the more I start doubting all
sorts of things about what these these people in power.
And the more and the more I'm in the belly
of the beast, I realize they're liars. They're there, they
have no shame, they're untethered, and and the ones that
aren't untethered are actually knowingly sending out uh misinformation. But
I will tell you this anytime. Kevin Newsom's mouth is moving,
(23:53):
he's lying. I'm just gonna say it right now. Anytime
that his mouth is moving, he is lying. I I
try looking for the redeemable and everybody, because everyone you
know is that they're a human being. They may be wrong,
but they're maybe not bad people. I'm just saying. The
guy is all about himself. There is no moral fiber there,
(24:15):
there is no there's no altruistic goal. It is all
about his own personal ambition. And when he's a chameleon,
he will do and say anything together.
Speaker 1 (24:25):
That's a scary thing about somebody in New Jersey that
doesn't know that would vote for him to be the
president when he was mayor of San Francisco. I mean,
there's countless narcissist moments of local media talking to him.
And let's remember, didn't he cheat with his best friend's wife.
Speaker 4 (24:40):
He cheated with his best friend's wife, I mean, I
mean it, then said the alcohol made me do it,
and then years later he's out there drinking thousand dollars
bottles of wine.
Speaker 1 (24:52):
I mean this, sobriety's the worst damn mistake this country's made.
That's his exact quote.
Speaker 4 (24:57):
Oh my, but you're absolutely right, Well, you just hit
on is so important. The reason why we need to
defeat Newsom here in California is that we know the
bad Gavin Newsom, but America doesn't. Can you imagine the
damage he would do to our entire country if he
were actually in the Oval office.
Speaker 1 (25:15):
And you got to see what a chameleon. I remember
his Governor podcast series he did. There were I think
Charlie Kirk was there when he made the comment about
the unfair. Yeah.
Speaker 4 (25:24):
The only episode that Newsom did that did well was
the Charlie Kirk podcast where he.
Speaker 1 (25:30):
Said, my son watches you and you and and Newsom
even stated that no, the trans is not fair poison.
But then the next day he changed the point of view.
So he's a chamelion, he's a liar. But but but
this is a guy. This is a guy who fails up.
Speaker 4 (25:46):
And the reason why he fails up is that he
has very powerful financial backers that control him, that want
to make sure that he's in power so they get
what they want, not the little guy. These are billionaires
that get what they want, and that's that's what the
nature of California's political system.
Speaker 1 (26:02):
And he was smart to not jump in that Biden
calm of fray of the last election. No, he wasn't smart.
He was told he wasn't allowed to. Oh no, no, no,
Gavin Newsom was rubbing up the end. Did you see the.
Speaker 4 (26:13):
The part of her book where she said, I called
Gavin Newssom, but he never did call me back. The
reason why was he was hoping that the oligarchs was
were gonna muscle her out for him, and that's why
he didn't call back.
Speaker 1 (26:26):
Is that the guy has no shame.
Speaker 4 (26:28):
He doesn't want to give his commitment to her that
he's going to not run because he knew.
Speaker 1 (26:33):
Are you saying that spring of the election? Here, when
Biden was out of DC and Newso went back for
his little tour and was walking around the grounds of
the White House with the camera crew, he said, oh,
I just stopped by. I was in the area. I
just stopped by.
Speaker 4 (26:46):
Oh, by the way, I came with a camera crew
that just so happens to be with me. The guy
has no shame.
Speaker 1 (26:52):
And they were asking, is this meaning you have asked
for Ray? Oh no, why would you say something like that?
Heaven forbid? Why are people saying that? What do you mean? Gambling?
And Vegas. What are you talking about? So maybe at
that time he was kind of you're saying he was
thinking he was gonna be the guy. Then, let me
just say he he saw me once in the hallway.
He tried to be my friend, and I'm just like,
(27:12):
I looked at him and said, no, there is there's
none of this.
Speaker 4 (27:16):
There is none of this. And I waved my hand.
I said there's none of this, and I just kept
walking because I'm not gonna fake it. I'm not gonna
fake it. I'm sick and tired, apologist.
Speaker 1 (27:25):
How does he ever pop into any assembly sessions?
Speaker 4 (27:28):
Well, when I was sworn and he kept looking at me,
my spouse, my partners, he said to me, He's like, newsom's.
Speaker 1 (27:33):
Been staring at you. I'm like, oh, he's sitting in
the corner. Great, wonderful? Was he mad dog in you?
I have no idea. I have no idea.
Speaker 4 (27:42):
I don't even know if it were it was staring
at me, he might have been staring at some hot
chick right behind me.
Speaker 1 (27:46):
I don't roll in like a school principle in the
back of the classroom. Is that how it is? Or no? No?
Speaker 4 (27:51):
He rarely no, No, He rarely. He rarely like hangs out.
He's usually hanging out with billionaires. But you know, every
once in a while he will be walking through like
the corridors, the corridors and whatnot.
Speaker 1 (28:03):
But they're all phony up there. I'm just saying that
they're complete phonies. Let me ask you. I asked this
with some of them, iNtanga Pa, I guess you've got
a staff, like six seven or so. We have staff.
We have seven.
Speaker 4 (28:19):
State government staffers. But I have a team at Reform
California that includes another fifteen to twenty people, and then
we have an army of more than fifteen thousand volunteers.
Speaker 1 (28:30):
I say a few medically, quite a few today.
Speaker 4 (28:33):
And I want every elected official on the Republican side
to see themselves as more than an elected official. They
need to be warriors. They need to become warriors. They
don't need to see their job as inside that building.
They need to see their job as outside of that building.
Their job is not to hit the button the right way.
Speaker 1 (28:49):
Some of them don't even do that. Their job is
to go out.
Speaker 4 (28:52):
And light a fire in every district and raise the
awareness of voters so that we can change that political system.
Speaker 1 (28:59):
Well, if you guys have what you say, six or
seven staffers, and with all the Democrats up there, think
how many Democrat staffers they get more than we.
Speaker 4 (29:06):
Do they get they get many more staff there.
Speaker 1 (29:09):
And why is that?
Speaker 4 (29:10):
Because they're in charge and they get to call the shots.
And I always say it's not you know, you're never
gonna have a fair fight. If people are saying, oh,
you know, Democrats are't gonna be fair. Yeah, and the
day ends and why Okay, so suck it up. Buttercup,
Mama didn't give you a fair fight. But it's a
fight worth fighting and still winnable. And that's why I'm
(29:31):
you want a better government, you will get the government
you're willing to fight for. Go online right now voter
id initiative dot com, contribute it, volunteer for signature, sign
the darn initiative, or at least share the website. Come
to one of my events, do something. If all of
us do something, we are going to change the trajectory
(29:53):
of the state.
Speaker 1 (29:53):
We will take it back. I regretted it later when
you started invading nations and nation building, but when Governor
Bush was running in ninety nine, I remember that's the
first time I wasn't doing news talk, but I said,
I'm gonna get my older kids and we're gonna go
hang door hangers to remind Republicans to get it was
like a little thing. I took the kids down. George
Bush was at a hangar airport hangar, and I remember
(30:15):
that was the first little step of actually not complaining
and doing a little something. Yep. And this is a
little something. To sign this petition. It doesn't take you
much and to get a packet and to review it
and look at it and realize how important is if
you want to stay in the state, you got to
do stuff like this because if we don't, it's going
to continue the downhill spiral and we'll all just get
(30:38):
grandma and move to Arkansas.
Speaker 4 (30:40):
And let me tell you, buddy, you can move you say,
shut up, butter go, yeah, suck it up by chuck
it up. But you can move to a red state.
But if you think that state's going to remain red, no,
the contagion will follow you. My son's in Waco and
he's talking about the liberalism KO. That's not even Houston
or Dallas. I can't tell you how many elected officials
from across the country call me and say, would you
(31:01):
stop sending your people here? And I said, it's not me,
it's not I want. I want our people to stay here.
I want to change in my state. But what's happening
is that people think, oh, I've got to leave California
and it will be better on grass is greener on
the other side.

So Trevor Nation all over the place. No On fifty
two of the fight actually will continue all the way
(33:08):
until November fourth. Get the word out. No On fifty
Why does it matter, Well, it should matter to all
Californians because the state of California is stepping in and
has actually come in and revolted against the will of
the people. This has already voted in this state. The
people of the state of California said, we will determining,
(33:29):
determine the mapping the redistricting to decide congressional representation, and
that normally changes. I remember in twenty twenty going through
it talking with Alex Havley and Sam la Quing Valley Sun.
He was involved with the mapping of this, and that's
really the first time I ever really learned a lot nothing,
you know, and got involved and found out how it
all happened. And I knew in California that that's what
(33:51):
it was. It was a people commissioned We the people
told the state, no politicians, you're not going to decide
who your voters are. We're going to decide the maps.
So that's how it's always been in the state. Biden's
doj stepped in and told Texas a few years ago,
you got to remap you got a redistrict. They stepped
in and did it well. Democrats didn't like the way
(34:13):
that that went in Texas, so Newsom decided to just
blame Texas. Remember all those Democrats in Texas leaving the state,
fleeing so they didn't have to have to vote. They're
out of their minds. And so what Newsom has done
is now put a lot of money. Boy, they're coming
out the pocket to knock it on this one, because
what it's going to allow is at least now up
(34:33):
to possibly five Republican congressional seats back in DC are
going to be remapped here in California, and that will
give at least five more additional seats. Of the twenty
twenty six midterms that are coming up, you're gonna have
people that have jobs as a Republican congressmen that don't Boom,
we just eliminated it. It doesn't matter that they were
(34:55):
voted in by the will of the people. No so
when you hear all these commercials out there talking about
the fact that we're giving it back to the people,
it couldn't be more of a Biels Above, Live from
the Pits of Hades. And that's why Colling Governor Biells
above Satan dipty dew and face mask gag and gruesome
because he's all involved like that. And as a simum,
(35:16):
when Karl Demo was rightfully stating out here, he is
a chameleon. The Assistant Trevor Kerry Show in London Valley's
