You're listening to kf I Am sixforty. The bill handles show on demand
on the iHeartRadio f K five AMsix forty live everywhere in the iHeartRadio app.
Bill handle here on a Wednesday morning, May tenth. Among the other
stories that were carrying covering this morningand are trending, Oh lots of news
this morning, Diane Feinstein returns tothe Senate. She walks down the aisle,
(00:25):
turns to the sergeant at arms,orders a cheeseburger and a diet coke
because she thought she was at ajack in the box. She's eighty nine
years old and among I think theoldest members. I there were other members
of the Senate that were in theirnineties. But it's it's pretty old,
say the least. Needless to say. Of course, you can run and
(00:46):
sit in the Senate as old asyou want to be. Now, the
other huge story that came down yesterdaywas, and it came down quickly after
three hours of deliberations, the lawsuitof e Gene Carroll against Donald Trump for
rape and sexual assault. Is overthree hours of deliberation, and Donald Trump
(01:10):
lost. He was accused of notraping her. And that's a very important
issue. He was accused of sexuallyassaulting her and defamation because he called her
a liar when she made her accusations. First, let's talk about the rape
because that's important because Trump's attorney saidthis was all about a rape case,
and the jury said it wasn't rape. So he's spinning it to say we
(01:34):
won this case. And he's goingto appeal the other issues. By the
way, the appeal is going togo no place because appeals are procedural.
The judge did something wrong. Lookwhat you did? Well, there was
no defense. He didn't put upa defense, never even showed up.
So I think he's gonna have ahard time in general. So there is
liability. And there was a fivemillion dollar award given to her, which
(01:59):
means for Donald Trump, that's changeyou find in your sofa cushions. That's
what that's about. And this isthe first time that a judgment has been
rendered against Donald Trump. This isa man who has filed lawsuit after lawsuits
after lawsuit. He uses litigation asa weapon. And since he wasn't there,
(02:22):
what did they do? What didthe planets do? What did her
lawyers do? Brought up that depositionin which the Access Hollywood tape was played
and used. And remember when hetalked about he could grab any woman by
the genitals, and because he's astar, and because that's just what happened
(02:45):
with stars, they get away withit. And she and he was asked
about that and he admitted it.He said, yes, that's true,
fortunately or unfortunately, and it goesback a million years. So none of
the big questions what happened to himpolitically, well, he has claimed and
you would think so that this wholething is a witch hunt, that the
(03:07):
judge was a Clinton appointee, thatthe jury was in New York, and
the whole thing is set against him. New York happens to be a very
liberal state, and it was simplypart of this plan to attack him,
the Grand witch hunt. Right,His base, of course, is believing
(03:28):
that because no matter what happens toPresident Trump, former President Trump, in
any manner and attack of course isa political witch hunt. The problem is,
and he's I think he's gonna win. I think he's gonna win the
primary for the Republicans Party for president. At some point, there is just
(03:49):
fatigue of all of this, becausethis is just the start of all of
the charges that are being brought againsthim, and you go, come on,
you know, I'm just enough ofthis. Even those people would believe
him and believe in him are goingthis is enough, because you're going to
see indictments, you are going tosee trials. I mean, it's just
it's a mess. I believe forDonald Trump among his base, amongst his
(04:14):
base, best thing that ever happened, because it proves his point, the
political witch hunt, and even someRepublicans. I'll tell you why, I
think he's in trouble because the majorityof the Republicans in Congress and the Senate
will say nothing, no comment.I don't know enough about this. I
have been followed, I haven't beenfollowing it. Of course, the Democrats
are going to Berzik as you wouldexpect them to. But you remember he
(04:38):
won because of the independence. Healso won because everybody hated Hillary Clinton as
I did. This is going tobe fascinating. And the two people that
should least run for president during theprimary is Donald Trump and Joe Biden for
(05:00):
front reasons, and whoever wins shouldn'tbe president for obvious reasons. I mean,
we'll talk more about this, butanyway, he is guilty five million
dollars. Now tomorrow is a bigday. Tomorrow. Title forty two ends,
and Title forty two has to dowith a nineteen forty four law that
(05:24):
was passed, federal law in whichthe federal government can turn away migrants who
are going to the border, evendenying them the opportunity to claim asylum,
which they have a right to dounless Title and thus Title forty two kicks
in. And that's on the basisof public health. And the Trump administration
(05:48):
brought this back. And this waskeeping migrants out of the country on the
basis of and it was covidy.We had a risk of people with COVID
coming in and even adding to thesickness the number of people that are sick
in this country and who are dying. Oh and the Biden administration kept on
(06:10):
going too. It's not like,oh, that's a horrible thing that Trump
did and now we're going to changeit around. Oh No, the Biden
administration just kept it up, sameas a former president Trump. It ends
tomorrow, which means we're back towhere we were. And what does that
(06:31):
mean. Okay, first of all, amongst migrants that are coming in,
and I mean by the hundreds ofthousands. The government thinks that starting tomorrow,
there'll be ten thousand migrants coming inper day. We're trying to come
in per day. And since Titleforty two is no longer in place,
(06:54):
a migrant coming in and claiming asylumhas to be given hearing. That's the
law now. The vast majority whoare given hearings are denied. But it
gets you in the country. Andsince your hearing or a hearing is has
to be years off because there's justtoo many to deal with, the backlog
(07:17):
is years. Usually they are releasedinto the country and told to come back,
and boom, there they are.Now they're trying to stop a lot
of it, trying to say onlythose that have sponsors in the United States,
people that have the money that willmake sure that the sponsories that those
(07:38):
people who have sponsors are not goingto be a burden the United States with
various programs which for the most partthey're not allowed to have anyway. So
we're going to see ten thousand,ten thousand per day, that's what it
is estimated. Have you seen thosevideos of the number of people that are
lining up at the border. Now, keep mind and this is when I
(08:01):
have real mixed feelings about this one. Keep in mind that for many of
them, as they arrive at theborder just south of the US Mexican border,
they have trekked five days through jungle, going through the areas where they're
(08:22):
narcosafacante's and criminals are holding them up, I mean physically like a gun beer
head, holding them up, stealingeverything they can, raping women, in
some cases, simply killing people.And there's video of migrants stepping over people's
bodies. I mean, it ishorrific. And are they going to violate
(08:48):
US law certainly by coming in thecountry. They do. That's why they're
going into the ports of entry hopingthey're going to be granted asylum hearings,
which I'm going to tell you aboutin a second. What are the chances
of that happening? So they areguilty. Here's their ultimate guilt, the
laws being violated because they're just comingin. The reason the law is being
(09:09):
violated because they want to feed theirkids. They simply want an opportunity which
does not exist where they came from. Particularly you're talking about Central Americans,
South Americans, Venezuelans. Because ofwhat Hugo Chabz and Maduro following has single
handedly destroyed those countries. They don'teat, they have no opportunity. I
mean, what do you do withthat? And at the same time,
(09:31):
we have our borders to control thosepeople that say open arms, am a
Lazarus, give me your poor,your wretched. Let's the statue of liberty.
It's for everybody. It's not,it's not. We have to control
our borders. I mean, there'sno other practical way of doing it.
So what's going to happen tomorrow?They're coming to the border. They cannot
(09:56):
be kicked out because of forty two, are not allowed into this country because
Title forty two. And then they'reasking for asylum. Well, there are
so many people it's impossible. Sothere's actually a lottery where you call it's
on it's an app where the migrantsclick on it and if they can get
in, they have an appointment toeven find out if they're going into the
(10:20):
country, you'll be able to claimasylum. Because the border patrol is saying
no, thank you, because underthe law, and this is what Trump,
the former Trump administration did as wellas the Biden administration is saying,
oh, we're gonna give you anasylum hearing, but you got to go
back to Mexico. You're not goingto come in the country and wait for
(10:41):
it. And that's allowed. That'sallowed. When I talk about my parents
coming to this country in the fifties, it was much the same thing.
You have to stand in line.Took them eleven years, eleven years to
get into the United States. Mydad applied in Italy right after World War
Two, and his application followed himto Brazil. Eleven years later he was
(11:07):
allowed in the United States. Andso you have the migrants. They don't
have eleven years, by the way, because my parents are actually making a
pretty good living in Brazil. Thesepeople of the border are not. They're
basically starving. And this is wherethe United States has cut a deal with
Mexico to feed these people, tokeep them in these tent cities, and
(11:28):
a certain amount as being left inor let in. You're going to see
starting tomorrow, just a god awfulmess. And those that are detracting the
Republicans that are screaming about what theBiden administration is doing, look a horrible
a job. You do. Hey, come up with some ideas. I'm
okay with that all right. Ijust think the Biden administration is overwhelmed,
(11:52):
as any administration would be, andit's easy to argue you're doing a terrible
job. You're not. You don'thave enough border patrol officers. You don't
do this, you don't do that. Okay, what do you do?
Here's the answer which we're being given, we should do a better job of
controlling our borders. What does thatmean? You can't even get funding from
(12:15):
the government to increase order patrol officers. That has been that has been going
down. Now that's changed and they'redoing it. But you know when they
increase border patrol officers, they increasedby the hundreds. We have two hundred
new officers coming in. What thehell does that mean they're catching? Well,
it's going to be encounters with illegalaliens undocumented. It's going to be
(12:37):
in the millions. This year isgoing to be the world record. Prior
to that, the world record,as far as the United States was concerned,
not Donald Trump. It was BarackObama who deported more people than Trump
did. I gonna tell you there'sa lot of blame to go around to
a lot of people. Now let'sjust move on to something that bothers all
(13:01):
of us and life is a changing. Well we know about return policies.
That's just a given on the internet, and you know that is changing.
First of all, it's free,right, well, someone's got to pay
for it. You've heard that phrase. There are no free lunches unless you
(13:22):
work in radio, and there areplenty. And Jennifer is nodding her head.
Oh my gosh, yes, that'sthe best perk. Uh. Yeah,
yeah, the free lunches not wherewe want to go, but still
doesnt All right, I'll tell youwhat. And Jennifer is in on this
because she lives buying online. Sogetting your money back was sort of a
given wash and is not quite aseasy. And this is happening fairly quietly.
(13:48):
For example, a retailer may say, you know, you can get
your money back, but you haveto go to either the store or you
have to drop off at Whole Foodsfor example with Amazon, where return places
at coals and you couldn't just dropit off any place UPS for example.
A lot of stories say you candrop it off at UPS, but you're
(14:09):
gonna be paying for it, andthat is really upsetting for a lot of
people. But let me there's athere's a world to this. Why did
they do that? Why did theystart doing that? Do you know when
they first started, when the retailersfirst started, Amazon, etc. St.
First started selling online, people didn'ttrust it. People did not buy
(14:30):
online. That was something that doesn'tfit. I have to wear it,
I have to see the color.I have to hold it up to the
light. I mean all of that, and they just wouldn't wouldn't do it.
So what do What did Amazon andother retailers online retailers do? They
just made it easy to shop.Okay, you don't know the color,
(14:52):
buy four and return three. Ihave ten. I'm ashamed to say this,
and yet I'm no shame in mygame. Ten boxes of Cowboy boots
on the table on my kitchen tableright now to return. Ye. Wow,
I kept any and it costs thema fortune. And that's what they
did. That's how they grabbed marketshare and had to convince people it's okay
(15:18):
to buy online. That was atrick and they did it by doing this.
You know, there are companies thatlive on this is a stitch fit,
I think where they send you everymonth or every couple of weeks a
bunch of outfits and they tell youchoose the one you want and return the
rest. That's their business bottle.And at the same time, now I'm
(15:41):
this was out of the Atlantic.You don't want to cost these companies ten,
ten to twenty bucks to return anitem. They don't even put them
back on the shelves, they justthrow them away. It's changing. You're
going to be paying now because justit's getting old, it's getting too expensive.
I'm still okay with that. Payingfor the ease of it of shopping
(16:04):
that way, I'm totally fine withif they charged a return fee, Well,
they're going to do that now.It's that convenient. You're going to
see that more and more and more. Well, Amazon Prime for example,
I don't know what you can payone hundred and twenty bucks for that.
Yeah, but if you but ifyou use it every day like you do
several times a day, like youdo. What thirty boxes of cowboy boots?
(16:26):
Are you? Fourteen? I keptfour? I have you and blue
ones. I have sunflower ones,I have sequin ones and Cowboy boots.
You're so white trash. It's thankyou, You're welcome. So she takes
that as a compliment. Yeah,I do I know you do? Yeah,
all right. Now moving into anotherfederal issue, and this one is
(16:48):
just entertaining as hell, because there'sreally no influence that George Santos has.
I don't know what committees he's sittingon. I don't know where Kevin mccarthury
is gonna put him. He's justa vote and that's it. He's a
seat. Much like when Nancy Pelosiwas Speaker, Marjorie Taylor Green was sitting
(17:08):
on no committee. She was justa vote, a seat in the House.
And of course now she is onsome of the most important committees out
there because of Kevin McCarthy. Butlet's move into George Santos. This warning,
he was arrested on seven counts ofwire fraud, three of money laundering,
(17:30):
theft to public funds, making materialialfalse statements to the House of Representatives.
When I announced this, Wayne Resnickactually jumped up in glee. You
were, Wayne, you were clappinglike a seal about to get a fish
for a treat for once. Yourdescription of me is accurate and not exaggerated.
(17:55):
All right. So let's there's twoissues here. One is the criminal
asp back of it, which Wayne, you and I are going to talk
about. And number two, thepolitical part of it, of which we
are going to talk about. Solet's talk about the criminal part because I
want to make a point. He'sbeing accused of lying on his resume.
You can do that. There's nocrime about lying on your resume to get
(18:18):
elected. He is not being hewas in he was. That was the
accusation that originally we looked at.Oh, you mean generically lying, not
criminally accused. That's correct. Butlet's talk about the criminality of it,
all right. A shout out tothe Long Island Office of the Eastern District
of New York for writing this indictmentin a manner that made it easier for
me to wrap my head around thebroad strokes, which you don't always see
(18:41):
it now. Number one, thereare three main things that he is criminally
charged with doing, two of whichare related to him running for and getting
elected to Congress, and one ofthem has nothing to do with that.
So one fraudulent solicitation of political campaigns. He set up an entity to solicit
(19:02):
campaign funds to support his campaign,and according to the government, took at
least some of that money and spentit on luxury designer clothing, credit card
payments, and other personal things,which is a tale as old as politics.
Number two. When he got elected, he was required to make certain
financial disclosures to Congress, and hemade them. But the government is alleging
(19:27):
that in one case he lied bynot including some income that he had earned,
but in another case he lied bysaying that he had made a bunch
of money and had big fat bankaccounts that he didn't actually have. That
(19:48):
is where I question whether he hasI'm not saying this clinically, but some
kind of a true personality disorder,because who law on a congressional form under
penalty of perjury and says they havea bunch of money that they don't.
He backed one of the allegations againsthim. He's a weird guy, isn't
(20:10):
he? George Santus very he isodd in my opinion. Go ahead.
The third and then the third thing, which has nothing to do with him
being a politician, is during thepandemic, he applied for and received pandemic
era unemployment benefits that he was notactually entitled to because he didn't tell them
about a job that he had,and he claimed to be unemployed when in
(20:32):
fact he had a job, Youjust wonder. And he's being called on
to resign by even some Republicans,although most are silent on it, and
politically he's until he's convicted. Actually, I think even with a conviction,
he stays in Congress according to therules, and he's gonna run for the
(20:52):
seat again. Boy, you gottaexplain that one to me, because how
much of a life, even it'sa Republican dist barely he squeaked through.
How does someone run for office?Does he does? He bring the indictment
with him and show it, sayingthere they're after me. It's a witch
(21:15):
hunt. Except he's not Donald Trump. That's the problem. Are you surprised
he hasn't resigned yet? No,give him some time because because and this
is what I would do too,is I would hold my ability to resign
and make of the political problems goaway. I would hold that as a
chit as a bargaining tool with theprosecutors to see if I can get a
(21:37):
better deal on the prison sentence inexchange for agreeing to resigning. And the
reason he is not being forced,i mean literally kicked out is because the
majority of Republicans have a four votemajority, and if he gets booted,
it becomes a three vote majority,and that's a little bit toole to kick
(22:00):
him out. And they just don'thave it all right now, what we
usually do on Wednesday is we haveSteve Gregory in, but unfortunately, oh
no, Steve Gregory is still here. I love it how every time I
come on, it doesn't matter whatday of the week it is. You
always say we always have Steve onTuesdays. I always Steve on Mondays.
(22:22):
I know, we just always haveSteve one sometime. Well, we have
on a fair amount because you doa lot. So this is a story
that we did this warning we mentionedit, and this has to do with
that traffic enforcement in the city ofLos Angeles, and the enforcement is done
by civilians instead of cops. Solet's say you are You're stopped by a
(22:45):
civilian and I'm stopped by a civilian. This is where you flip the bird
and say, who the hell areyou? Let's talk about that. Well,
this is regarding a report that wasput out by the Los Angeles Department
of Transportation. And here's the crazything. This report was due a couple
of years ago, but it wascommissioned three years ago by the La City
Council. Following the events of twentytwenty, after the George Floyd case and
(23:10):
after the subsequent civil unrest there.That's when policing became more scrutinized and everything
was under a lens. It's like, you know, police or racist,
and there was this this whole bigmovement to defund the police. So one
of the byproducts of that movement wasthat critics claimed the LAPD were pulling over
(23:32):
a disproportionate number of blacks and Hispanics. Now that's true statistically correct. Well,
statistically depends on what area of townyou're talking about. It depends if
it was a random stop, ifit depends if it was a crime suppression
operation. There's a lot of factorsthere. And when you look at a
you know, a couple of theoutlets and think the La Times if someone
did a report on it, butthey focused only on one segment of the
(23:56):
Metro Division and they didn't look atthe entire county or the entire city ram
So that statement that the minorities aredisproportionately affected, that's very broad statement.
Well for the LAPD, yes,but and even some commanders have said in
the past that yes, But thenwhen you talk to those boots on the
ground, they say, well,because a lot of the crime that we're
(24:17):
concerned with, and a lot ofthe crime that is committed happens in communities
that are predominantly black and Hispanic.So I guess it depends on what side
of the argument you lie on.So in this particular case, that's kind
of the impetus for this report.So the report found that there needs to
be some infrastructure overhauls and that wouldhelp slow down reckless driving and traffic in
(24:38):
these underserved communities, and then theywould want to put these civilians in place
to do most of the traffic enforcement. Now, they don't get specific on
exactly how they'll do it, speeding, blowing through a red light, unmarked
cars or marked cars. They don'tget into a lot of that, but
there is a presumption that they wouldbe doing some sort of vehicular enforcement,
(25:02):
whether that be in the form ofa car traveling behind another car, whether
that would be you know, havingsomeone parked at an intersection and pulling them
over for a red light violation.There's a presumption that that's included. Now,
I will tell you this a trafficstop is among the most, if
not the most dangerous encounter an officerever has. Let me think about it.
(25:23):
If you get a domestic violence call, you already know in advance there's
violence involved, and there's most likelya weapon involved. On a traffic stop,
an officer has no idea what's comingup. They might be able to
run the plate and they might beable to see that there's a warrant for
the arrest something like that, orif it's the car stolen, but they
don't know that there's a gun inthe front seat. They don't know there's
(25:45):
a knife under the front seat.So that is one of the most dangerous
encounters a cop ever has. Intalking to some officers yesterday, they said,
to hand that, simply hand thatoff to civilians is a recipe for
disaster. Yeah, it makes sensewhen you talk about what appears on its
face to be a reasonably good idea. When it gets into the minutia,
when it gets into the actually enforcement, you go, what the hell are
(26:07):
you doing? By the way,who's gonna pay attention? If someone's trying
to put me pull me over andI think or I don't know that it's
a cop I'm out of there,or do they if they think I'm stopping,
they're crazy, or it's an ambassadorwith a radio. Yeah, because
if you think about it again,this was a long away to report.
If this had been done three yearsago, things might be different, But
(26:29):
I don't think there's much of apush now to change things. Now.
We're gonna go to something that Stevethey did report on, and that is
the La County Juvenile Hall and hownot only facilities, but also how we
as a county where the county officialsdeal with juveniles. Then it's very strange.
I mean, if you ask GeorgeGascone, there's no sus thing as
(26:52):
a real juvenile defendant or criminal.It just doesn't exist. They are.
We have to deal with them inrehabilitation, doesn't matter how many kindergarten kids
they chop up. So there's alwaysbeen a problem. They were supposed to
shut down, or the county's juvenileHall facility was supposed to shut down.
It's not being shut down. Anda team just died of an overdose overdose
(27:15):
inside the facility. So let's followthe story. Sure, And when my
sources reached out to me yesterday,that person who died was one of seven
overdoses total, and the others werehelped through the use of narcan and through
medical personnel. And the big questionis how did the drugs get in?
(27:36):
So when I was talking to theseprobation officers and other sources in the agency,
you know, they described this sortof rampant, sort of wild West
environment in there, because mostly they'reshort staffed. A lot of these officers
are working twenty four hour shifts multipledays in a row, and because of
Lack's policies handed down by the Boardof Supervisors, their ability to enforce rules
(28:00):
has been limited. And you know, they're trying to take away pepper spray,
for instance, and it's gotten veryviolent in there. So this young
man eighteen years old was found unresponsivein his room yesterday morning, and by
the time they tried to administer anarcan, it was too late. And
now they're trying to investigate exactly thesort of chain of events. I will
(28:21):
tell you. Back in February,there were two other overdoses and they were
able to save those two kids.And then just in March they found two
large bundles of pills that were lacedwith fentyl and they sourced. It confirmed
yesterday that this young man did diefrom fentnel exposure. Now I mentioned George
Gascon and maybe I'm not being fairto him, although I don't know how
you can be unfair to him.But it's not just him, it's also
(28:44):
the board of supervisors that is doingthis. Are we looking just a broad
swath of a liberal attitude towards dealingwith juveniles. Well, I think there's
this progressive movement, this you know, hugs over incarceration movement, and you
know, in the interview I didwith one of the sources, one of
the whistleblowers, they explained in greatdetail that there's this sort of systematic effort
(29:11):
to disband the current juvenile detention systemin favor of this new youth program.
And this youth program is tied toa number of nonprofit organizations that will benefit
from county money and from grant dollars. And what it does is it's taking
away the enforcement arm of juvenile detentionand putting it more in a rehabilitation.
They want to take the kids whooffend, regardless of the level or severity
(29:36):
of the crime, and they wantto put them right back in the community
where they offended and try to rehabilitatethem within that community as opposed to putting
them in some sort of a detentionfacility. Now, are there any stats
out there that connect the level ofseverity to the quote success rate of a
rehab program, Although I don't knowhow you defend how you define a success
(29:57):
rate other than recidivism, right andrecidivism is pretty high right now. I
mean that that's the thing. They'reseeing a lot of repeat offenders in these
juvenile systems. When they have thesesuccess stories. When the rehab does work,
it doesn't work on the grander scale. So the number of people who
successfully go through some sort of rehabilitationdoesn't come close to the number of people
(30:18):
who reoffend and go back into thesystem. And I don't have numbers in
front of me, but I cantell you, based on anecdotally from these
officers to tell me that they cantell you the repeat offenders that they see
multiple times coming in and out ofthat place, People that came in at
fourteen years old and at nineteen yearsold, they're still seeing them. And
the other problem that exacerbates this isthe fact that you've got state prisoners now
(30:41):
adults in their twenties who are nowbeing reintegrated into this juvenile system because the
state parole system, the early release, the rehabilitation on the state level,
they're putting that burden now in thecounty probation system, which is already overtaxed
and overwhelmed. So now you've gotthis is the thing that they're having problems
with. You've got people who havea prison skill set, prison survival skill
(31:06):
set, and you're taking twenty fivetwenty six year old gangbangers and now you're
mixing them with fourteen and fifteen yearolds. Yeah, it's a guarantee for
disaster, clearly. And again I'mgoing to ask the question because I'm thinking
in terms of dealing with success,and there's a couple of ways to go.
Number one, is there any systemthey have in place to look at
(31:29):
the number of years, the severityof the crime, how long a juvenile
has been in the system, andsomehow figure out a formula algorithm, if
you will, but in place withjust this system that tells you, Okay,
there's an eighty percent chance that thisindividual is going to come back,
there's a twenty percent chance that comeback, or is it just broad strokes.
(31:52):
If you're in this system, we'rejust going for it. It's broad
strokes. I even think at thispoint based on everything I've been told,
and it doesn't matter if you lookat you know, you mentioned gascon at
the top of the segment, andGascone doesn't want to look at any of
that. All he says is thatyoung people deserve to be rehabilitated. They
don't deserve to be incarcerated. Andso that's the mountain the mantra that went
(32:15):
in day one from him. Itdidn't matter what the numbers are, the
stats showed, it didn't matter whatthe input from boots on the ground said,
It didn't matter any of that.What mattered is he, because of
the progressive ideologies, he did notwant children incarcerated. In terms of you
mentioned understaffing, is there a moveout there? I mean, is there
(32:37):
money to staff? And if therethere's a hiring freeze. There's been a
hiring freeze for a few years now. They're down a hundreds of people in
the probation system in the county andyou've got quite a few of them out
on medically right now. And anyonewho quits, transfers or is fired those
positions are not replaced, and that'sa big problem. And so what they
(33:00):
again, what they want to do, is they want to take them away
from these probation officers who are trainedto maintain control and order, and they
want to hand them over to counselors. Yeah, there's a lot of companies
that have the same philosophy. We'resimply not going to replace, and that
is becoming more and more common.Yeah. Yeah, we know of a
few companies like that don't. Yeah, and and there's no such thing as
(33:22):
recidivism rate because they don't come now, they never come back. But it
is a problem. And now,on top of that, yesterday, as
this young man died in a facility, the state Attorney general announced, you
know, that the judge ruled inhis favor that the county must comply with
(33:42):
a bunch of mandates that were handeddown by a judge a couple of months
ago. So it's a couple ofyears ago rather. So it's nasty over
there, all right, So what'sgoing on? We're unsolved. Well,
we're still in our last few weeksof our hiatus. So we start our
new season at the beginning of nextmonth, and we'll have all new.
Yeah, but for people who havemissed any of those shows, it is
almost on the iHeartRadio app. Yeah, and this is really good stuff and
(34:06):
yeah, and and based on ourdownload numbers, it's still going strong.
Yeah, no, it's it keepsadding up. It's a very unique show.
When you know, you say it'sunlike anything else heard in southern California
or I even say the rest ofthe country, you actually mean it.
Yeah, unlike the rest of ushere, who are so self aggrandizing you
can barely recognize it. All right, Steve, take care, I'll cut
(34:29):
you again. That's unsolved from sevento nine pm, and he's at Steve
Gregory six forty And now, ladiesand gentlemen, without further ado, it's
time for Dean Sharpe, the housewhisper. First of all, you know,
the music is so nice on yourshow. It it moves me so
much, isn't it? Lovely?Lovely beyond lovely. I must tell you,
(34:52):
I was just talking to our bossthe other day about how different you
and I broadcast, And is therea different now? You're nice, you
like people, you actually have aheart. Uh yeah, oh yeah that
yeah, I forgot about yeah somuch. Yeah, you're right, all
right, new stuff that's out there. And we do this occasionally because there's
(35:14):
new stuff coming out in construction,home appliance. Uh that wallpapers sinks.
I mean, all of it iscoming out constantly. So I'm gonna just
throw it to you and I'll throwyou a question or two. New stuff
with Dean Sharp. Okay, SoI I actually get to bring the biggest
breaking news of this Wednesday, inmy opinion, GE has finally released.
(35:38):
It's out there now. They're brandnew all in one washer and dryer combo
one unit washes and dries. Now. The reason why this is such big
news, I know the market hashad all in one washers and yeah year
the year, and they're all garbage. They are all garbage. And I'll
(36:00):
tell you why they're all garbage.Because they've attempted to just simply combine two
units with the same technology that they'vebeen using forever. And here is why
this is different. GE on thedrier side of things, has decided to
abandon the idea and rightly so,that baking your clothes is the way to
(36:22):
get them dry. They have changedfrom a massive heat source to a heat
pump technology. Now I know,I don't want to get overly technical,
and I know there aren't many listenerswho have experienced hanging their clothes out on
a clothesline or their laundry out ona clothesline to dry. But if you
had, if you ever have,you know this fact. It can be
(36:45):
one hundred degree day outside and ifthere's no wind blowing, those clothes will
stay wet for a long long time. But it can actually be a cold
day, but if there's a breezeboom, everything dries quickly. What has
happened now, Bill, is gehas abandoned the idea of high heat.
They still use heat, it's warmair, but they're using a heat pump
(37:08):
very much like an air conditioner removesmoisture from the air. And they're using
a massive fan inside the dryer unit. And guess what, the clothes dry
beautifully. So what we're talking abouthere is a large capacity washer dryer.
Now it's not extra large capacity,but it's large capacity. It'll take ten
(37:30):
pounds of laundry in this unit.That's more than the big comforter. I
mean, it's plenty all in onefrom beginning to end the cycle two hours
washing and drawing it'll notify you inbetween the washing and drying cycle if you
wanted to add a fabric softener sheet. Otherwise it'll just keep on going.
(37:53):
Now, GE has done a coupleof surveys. I know you've got questions
for me. They've done a coupleof surveys about how long laundry usually sits
in the washing machine before it getstransferred to the dryer. Their conclusion is,
on average, it's like two hours. And that, Yeah, I
don't think that surprises anybody, right, So you think about the fact that
(38:14):
you know, washing and drying,it's something you have to be present for.
But with these units, here isa unit where if you bought two
of them, you would literally doubleyour laundry capacity in the house. But
the point is it's all in one. This thing works. It works amazing
and because of this, I thinkit's a game changer. Bit. Okay
with that, if I'm buying astandard washer and dryer, for a decent
(38:37):
washer dryer, maybe a thousand bucksapiece, two thousand dollars, how much
is this puppy, Well, Ithink these days, for a decent large
capacity washer and dry you're you're atabout fifteen hundred apiece. Really, so
you're in about three grand these days. Okay, this thing retails of from
ge at twenty eight hundred and thenother other retail outlets. We don't have
(39:00):
special deals and such. Again,on top of that, it is it's
actually slightly less than you'd be payingfor a combo. Wow, you don't
usually see that. Okay, that'sgood news, all right. So you
want to wear out yours? Areyou gonna get one? By the way,
you know what A Tina seriously wantsus to consider it. I mean,
(39:22):
we're kind of at the end runof our existing machines, and she
could, she says, I coulduse the extra space. Plus, here's
another thing. Uh, no dryervent, no vent to the outside,
and no gas connection. This isall electric. So she's just tired of
taking that handle and rolling your clothesthrough that roller. She just can't take
(39:43):
it anymore. She is, she'syou know, she's tired of the washtub
that I make her use. Andexactly anyway, for those of you that
don't know Dean, don't be surprised. Okay, let's move on to more
news stuff Dean that is out therethat you pay attention to. Okay,
So here is something JJ is gonnalike this. Uh, I've got a
new pet door, a new favoritepet door for homes. And the reason
(40:07):
why this is important is because,uh, you know, the old top
flap rubber pet door, it hasa lot of problems with it. Number
one, you're gonna end up replacingthat rubber flap eventually, of depending on
how often it gets used. Numbertwo it's not really that weather proof.
Uh and uh and number three dogsreally actually behaviorally don't prefer it. And
(40:32):
so how do you how do youhow do you train them to turn the
knob? Though on the new oneit's a little lever for their paw.
No. This is uh. Thisis from a company called Plexi Door p
l e x I d o RPlexi Door. You can go to plexidoor
dot com and see what I'm talkingabout. It is a French door as
(40:52):
a as a pet door, meaningit's two pieces that open on a side
hinges, not a flap that holefrom the top. So pet consists just
kind of nose in really easily.It's it's easier for them to push it
open. And yet at the sametime it is way more weather proof than
the flaps because these can be rigidinsulated doors. This is actually a hurricane
(41:16):
proof door that doesn't leak energy likea crazy hole in the bottom of the
boat, and yet dogs like itbetter. You know, It's that's so
logical. It's one of those whydidn't I think of that kind of things?
Exactly well simple and yet exactly brilliant. It's just a it's just a
better mousetrap. It's a better wayto do a pet door. And that's
(41:39):
why I'm recommending it to people,because it stays cleaner, it's gonna last
longer, it's just better on everysingle front. And it's just simply this
one idea. Let's just hinge twodoors from the sides instead of the flap,
and it's well worth it all rightnow. One of a topic that
I love to talk to you aboutbecause you have taught so many any people
(42:00):
in my world not to use garbagedisposals the way we traditionally use garge disposals.
So I know there is something thatwill replace the garbage disposal and it
is not a pet pig that isin the backyard. Correct, correct,
correct, Yeah, this is anothergame changer in my book. Now it's
(42:21):
not out there yet, but youcan go to the website. These are
available for pre order. They're comingout later this year. It's made by
a company called Suppora sep you rA and essentially, you know, I
mean here in southern California now youhave to separate in most municipalities your compost
materials. They don't want you putin food down the drain anymore. And
it's not good for our city sewersystem or your pipes by the way,
(42:45):
to grind up and mascerate food andhave that guck lining your pipes. So
the only option you've had so faris to get a compost bin. You
get something sitting up on the counter, taken up counter space, or it's
an extra trash can under the underthe cabinets. Now this device, this
hooks up under your sink like agarbage disposal, but it's not a garbage
(43:08):
disposal. It is a it's abox that can will contain the food whole.
So you can go ahead now andjust go right back to how you
were doing it before. You canscrape all your food right down the drain
into the sink. The difference isinstead of macerating this all up and getting
jammed and causing sludge and all ofthat. It's simply and I think you'll
(43:30):
appreciate this again, it's a brilliantidea. It's just a big Archimedes screw
that basically grabs the food whole andmoves it off to the side of the
drain and into a container underneath thesink. Yeah, but how much that
simple? How much can it hold? It can hold a lot. It's
(43:51):
as large as a full sized trashcan compost bin. Yeah. Now that's
disgusting taking, you know, takingit out, dumping it and ringing it
back. So I mean you're talkingabout not only some work. Although that's
a small potato so to speak.By the way, I'm assuming you can
put small potatoes in it. Canoh they are, But just physically getting
(44:13):
rid of food that's been sitting therein a container for a while. Well,
the container is it keeps the fooddry. Number one. It is
filtered. It's just like any compostcontainer. It's sealed, it's filtered,
and so the food is starting tocompost down, not rot, compost,
and eventually when it gets full,it tells you and you just carry it,
you know, you grab the bag, you seal it up, and
(44:34):
you carry it out and drop itin the appropriate can outside. It is
what we all have to do anyway. This is just a much more familiar
and simpler way of doing it becauseso many people are just used to,
you know, using the garbage disposal. So this is garbage disposal habitual without
any of the detriments of what agarbage disposal does towards enough, any idea
(44:57):
of the price, because I alwaysask that you know what you got me
on that one. I'm not exactlysure where the price is right now.
I'd have to go and check iton the website. I hears something and
I never thought you would even getto this. Maybe I have it wrong,
but anything with the word track lightsin it is enefhma to you.
(45:19):
Well, these they say they're tracklights, but we're talking about a system
of LED lights that you can mountinto the eves around your house. You
can put them as densely or assparsely as you want. They're smart device
controlled and basically, you know,we have a lot of clients who are
like, is there any way thatI can make like holiday lights for my
house permanent? But I don't wantto be the guy on the block that
(45:42):
keeps his Christmas lights up all yeararound. This is how you do it.
You mount these led lights all aroundyour eves. The cool thing,
though, is in the past whenwe did this it has it's all or
nothing. You turn them on,turn them off. These they change color.
They can be orange for Halloween,they can be blue for Hanuka,
they can be green and red forChristmas or whatever. Or you can select
(46:05):
the number of bulbs that you wantto have turned on and they can just
be regular house down lighting during theyear. All right, one quick question
and then we have to bail.Electrical source does need an electrical source.
It does need electrical source. Itneeds some kind of outlet or feed from
the attic out to your eaves.But these are all low voltage lights,
so the entire house is pulling about. You know, three lightbulbs, three
(46:30):
incandescent light bulbs worth of energy whenthey're operating. And if soule voltage,
I think you can do it yourselfright and just absolutely fall right through the
ceiling of your home. All right, Dean, thank you this Saturday six
to eight in the morning, justbefore handling the law, and Sunday nine
to twelve, have a good one. Catch you this week film. All
right, coming up, Gary andShannon. Gary, a lot going on
(46:52):
today. What are you covering?Yeah, right after the top of the
hour news, we're gonna get intothe story about George Santos. We now
know what he's been indicted for.We have some e Gen Carrol responses to
yesterday's civil judgment, and one ofthe greatest teases from former President Trump about
tonight's town hall on CNN. It'sabsolutely worth listening to. Gary and Shannon
(47:13):
will come up right after the news. You've been listening to the Bill Handles
Show. Catch My Show Monday throughFriday, six am to nine am,
and anytime on demand on the iHeartRadioapp.
You're listening to kf I Am sixforty. The bill handles show on demand
on the iHeartRadio f K five AMsix forty live everywhere in the iHeartRadio app.
Bill handle here on a Wednesday morning, May tenth. Among the other
stories that were carrying covering this morningand are trending, Oh lots of news
this morning, Diane Feinstein returns tothe Senate. She walks down the aisle,
(00:25):
turns to the sergeant at arms,orders a cheeseburger and a diet coke
because she thought she was at ajack in the box. She's eighty nine
years old and among I think theoldest members. I there were other members
of the Senate that were in theirnineties. But it's it's pretty old,
say the least. Needless to say. Of course, you can run and
(00:46):
sit in the Senate as old asyou want to be. Now, the
other huge story that came down yesterdaywas, and it came down quickly after
three hours of deliberations, the lawsuitof e Gene Carroll against Donald Trump for
rape and sexual assault. Is overthree hours of deliberation, and Donald Trump
(01:10):
lost. He was accused of notraping her. And that's a very important
issue. He was accused of sexuallyassaulting her and defamation because he called her
a liar when she made her accusations. First, let's talk about the rape
because that's important because Trump's attorney saidthis was all about a rape case,
and the jury said it wasn't rape. So he's spinning it to say we
(01:34):
won this case. And he's goingto appeal the other issues. By the
way, the appeal is going togo no place because appeals are procedural.
The judge did something wrong. Lookwhat you did? Well, there was
no defense. He didn't put upa defense, never even showed up.
So I think he's gonna have ahard time in general. So there is
liability. And there was a fivemillion dollar award given to her, which
(01:59):
means for Donald Trump, that's changeyou find in your sofa cushions. That's
what that's about. And this isthe first time that a judgment has been
rendered against Donald Trump. This isa man who has filed lawsuit after lawsuits
after lawsuit. He uses litigation asa weapon. And since he wasn't there,
(02:22):
what did they do? What didthe planets do? What did her
lawyers do? Brought up that depositionin which the Access Hollywood tape was played
and used. And remember when hetalked about he could grab any woman by
the genitals, and because he's astar, and because that's just what happened
(02:45):
with stars, they get away withit. And she and he was asked
about that and he admitted it.He said, yes, that's true,
fortunately or unfortunately, and it goesback a million years. So none of
the big questions what happened to himpolitically, well, he has claimed and
you would think so that this wholething is a witch hunt, that the
(03:07):
judge was a Clinton appointee, thatthe jury was in New York, and
the whole thing is set against him. New York happens to be a very
liberal state, and it was simplypart of this plan to attack him,
the Grand witch hunt. Right,His base, of course, is believing
(03:28):
that because no matter what happens toPresident Trump, former President Trump, in
any manner and attack of course isa political witch hunt. The problem is,
and he's I think he's gonna win. I think he's gonna win the
primary for the Republicans Party for president. At some point, there is just
(03:49):
fatigue of all of this, becausethis is just the start of all of
the charges that are being brought againsthim, and you go, come on,
you know, I'm just enough ofthis. Even those people would believe
him and believe in him are goingthis is enough, because you're going to
see indictments, you are going tosee trials. I mean, it's just
it's a mess. I believe forDonald Trump among his base, amongst his
(04:14):
base, best thing that ever happened, because it proves his point, the
political witch hunt, and even someRepublicans. I'll tell you why, I
think he's in trouble because the majorityof the Republicans in Congress and the Senate
will say nothing, no comment.I don't know enough about this. I
have been followed, I haven't beenfollowing it. Of course, the Democrats
are going to Berzik as you wouldexpect them to. But you remember he
(04:38):
won because of the independence. Healso won because everybody hated Hillary Clinton as
I did. This is going tobe fascinating. And the two people that
should least run for president during theprimary is Donald Trump and Joe Biden for
(05:00):
front reasons, and whoever wins shouldn'tbe president for obvious reasons. I mean,
we'll talk more about this, butanyway, he is guilty five million
dollars. Now tomorrow is a bigday. Tomorrow. Title forty two ends,
and Title forty two has to dowith a nineteen forty four law that
(05:24):
was passed, federal law in whichthe federal government can turn away migrants who
are going to the border, evendenying them the opportunity to claim asylum,
which they have a right to dounless Title and thus Title forty two kicks
in. And that's on the basisof public health. And the Trump administration
(05:48):
brought this back. And this waskeeping migrants out of the country on the
basis of and it was covidy.We had a risk of people with COVID
coming in and even adding to thesickness the number of people that are sick
in this country and who are dying. Oh and the Biden administration kept on
(06:10):
going too. It's not like,oh, that's a horrible thing that Trump
did and now we're going to changeit around. Oh No, the Biden
administration just kept it up, sameas a former president Trump. It ends
tomorrow, which means we're back towhere we were. And what does that
(06:31):
mean. Okay, first of all, amongst migrants that are coming in,
and I mean by the hundreds ofthousands. The government thinks that starting tomorrow,
there'll be ten thousand migrants coming inper day. We're trying to come
in per day. And since Titleforty two is no longer in place,
(06:54):
a migrant coming in and claiming asylumhas to be given hearing. That's the
law now. The vast majority whoare given hearings are denied. But it
gets you in the country. Andsince your hearing or a hearing is has
to be years off because there's justtoo many to deal with, the backlog
(07:17):
is years. Usually they are releasedinto the country and told to come back,
and boom, there they are.Now they're trying to stop a lot
of it, trying to say onlythose that have sponsors in the United States,
people that have the money that willmake sure that the sponsories that those
(07:38):
people who have sponsors are not goingto be a burden the United States with
various programs which for the most partthey're not allowed to have anyway. So
we're going to see ten thousand,ten thousand per day, that's what it
is estimated. Have you seen thosevideos of the number of people that are
lining up at the border. Now, keep mind and this is when I
(08:01):
have real mixed feelings about this one. Keep in mind that for many of
them, as they arrive at theborder just south of the US Mexican border,
they have trekked five days through jungle, going through the areas where they're
(08:22):
narcosafacante's and criminals are holding them up, I mean physically like a gun beer
head, holding them up, stealingeverything they can, raping women, in
some cases, simply killing people.And there's video of migrants stepping over people's
bodies. I mean, it ishorrific. And are they going to violate
(08:48):
US law certainly by coming in thecountry. They do. That's why they're
going into the ports of entry hopingthey're going to be granted asylum hearings,
which I'm going to tell you aboutin a second. What are the chances
of that happening? So they areguilty. Here's their ultimate guilt, the
laws being violated because they're just comingin. The reason the law is being
(09:09):
violated because they want to feed theirkids. They simply want an opportunity which
does not exist where they came from. Particularly you're talking about Central Americans,
South Americans, Venezuelans. Because ofwhat Hugo Chabz and Maduro following has single
handedly destroyed those countries. They don'teat, they have no opportunity. I
mean, what do you do withthat? And at the same time,
(09:31):
we have our borders to control thosepeople that say open arms, am a
Lazarus, give me your poor,your wretched. Let's the statue of liberty.
It's for everybody. It's not,it's not. We have to control
our borders. I mean, there'sno other practical way of doing it.
So what's going to happen tomorrow?They're coming to the border. They cannot
(09:56):
be kicked out because of forty two, are not allowed into this country because
Title forty two. And then they'reasking for asylum. Well, there are
so many people it's impossible. Sothere's actually a lottery where you call it's
on it's an app where the migrantsclick on it and if they can get
in, they have an appointment toeven find out if they're going into the
(10:20):
country, you'll be able to claimasylum. Because the border patrol is saying
no, thank you, because underthe law, and this is what Trump,
the former Trump administration did as wellas the Biden administration is saying,
oh, we're gonna give you anasylum hearing, but you got to go
back to Mexico. You're not goingto come in the country and wait for
(10:41):
it. And that's allowed. That'sallowed. When I talk about my parents
coming to this country in the fifties, it was much the same thing.
You have to stand in line.Took them eleven years, eleven years to
get into the United States. Mydad applied in Italy right after World War
Two, and his application followed himto Brazil. Eleven years later he was
(11:07):
allowed in the United States. Andso you have the migrants. They don't
have eleven years, by the way, because my parents are actually making a
pretty good living in Brazil. Thesepeople of the border are not. They're
basically starving. And this is wherethe United States has cut a deal with
Mexico to feed these people, tokeep them in these tent cities, and
(11:28):
a certain amount as being left inor let in. You're going to see
starting tomorrow, just a god awfulmess. And those that are detracting the
Republicans that are screaming about what theBiden administration is doing, look a horrible
a job. You do. Hey, come up with some ideas. I'm
okay with that all right. Ijust think the Biden administration is overwhelmed,
(11:52):
as any administration would be, andit's easy to argue you're doing a terrible
job. You're not. You don'thave enough border patrol officers. You don't
do this, you don't do that. Okay, what do you do?
Here's the answer which we're being given, we should do a better job of
controlling our borders. What does thatmean? You can't even get funding from
(12:15):
the government to increase order patrol officers. That has been that has been going
down. Now that's changed and they'redoing it. But you know when they
increase border patrol officers, they increasedby the hundreds. We have two hundred
new officers coming in. What thehell does that mean they're catching? Well,
it's going to be encounters with illegalaliens undocumented. It's going to be
(12:37):
in the millions. This year isgoing to be the world record. Prior
to that, the world record,as far as the United States was concerned,
not Donald Trump. It was BarackObama who deported more people than Trump
did. I gonna tell you there'sa lot of blame to go around to
a lot of people. Now let'sjust move on to something that bothers all
(13:01):
of us and life is a changing. Well we know about return policies.
That's just a given on the internet, and you know that is changing.
First of all, it's free,right, well, someone's got to pay
for it. You've heard that phrase. There are no free lunches unless you
(13:22):
work in radio, and there areplenty. And Jennifer is nodding her head.
Oh my gosh, yes, that'sthe best perk. Uh. Yeah,
yeah, the free lunches not wherewe want to go, but still
doesnt All right, I'll tell youwhat. And Jennifer is in on this
because she lives buying online. Sogetting your money back was sort of a
given wash and is not quite aseasy. And this is happening fairly quietly.
(13:48):
For example, a retailer may say, you know, you can get
your money back, but you haveto go to either the store or you
have to drop off at Whole Foodsfor example with Amazon, where return places
at coals and you couldn't just dropit off any place UPS for example.
A lot of stories say you candrop it off at UPS, but you're
(14:09):
gonna be paying for it, andthat is really upsetting for a lot of
people. But let me there's athere's a world to this. Why did
they do that? Why did theystart doing that? Do you know when
they first started, when the retailersfirst started, Amazon, etc. St.
First started selling online, people didn'ttrust it. People did not buy
(14:30):
online. That was something that doesn'tfit. I have to wear it,
I have to see the color.I have to hold it up to the
light. I mean all of that, and they just wouldn't wouldn't do it.
So what do What did Amazon andother retailers online retailers do? They
just made it easy to shop.Okay, you don't know the color,
(14:52):
buy four and return three. Ihave ten. I'm ashamed to say this,
and yet I'm no shame in mygame. Ten boxes of Cowboy boots
on the table on my kitchen tableright now to return. Ye. Wow,
I kept any and it costs thema fortune. And that's what they
did. That's how they grabbed marketshare and had to convince people it's okay
(15:18):
to buy online. That was atrick and they did it by doing this.
You know, there are companies thatlive on this is a stitch fit,
I think where they send you everymonth or every couple of weeks a
bunch of outfits and they tell youchoose the one you want and return the
rest. That's their business bottle.And at the same time, now I'm
(15:41):
this was out of the Atlantic.You don't want to cost these companies ten,
ten to twenty bucks to return anitem. They don't even put them
back on the shelves, they justthrow them away. It's changing. You're
going to be paying now because justit's getting old, it's getting too expensive.
I'm still okay with that. Payingfor the ease of it of shopping
(16:04):
that way, I'm totally fine withif they charged a return fee, Well,
they're going to do that now.It's that convenient. You're going to
see that more and more and more. Well, Amazon Prime for example,
I don't know what you can payone hundred and twenty bucks for that.
Yeah, but if you but ifyou use it every day like you do
several times a day, like youdo. What thirty boxes of cowboy boots?
(16:26):
Are you? Fourteen? I keptfour? I have you and blue
ones. I have sunflower ones,I have sequin ones and Cowboy boots.
You're so white trash. It's thankyou, You're welcome. So she takes
that as a compliment. Yeah,I do I know you do? Yeah,
all right. Now moving into anotherfederal issue, and this one is
(16:48):
just entertaining as hell, because there'sreally no influence that George Santos has.
I don't know what committees he's sittingon. I don't know where Kevin mccarthury
is gonna put him. He's justa vote and that's it. He's a
seat. Much like when Nancy Pelosiwas Speaker, Marjorie Taylor Green was sitting
(17:08):
on no committee. She was justa vote, a seat in the House.
And of course now she is onsome of the most important committees out
there because of Kevin McCarthy. Butlet's move into George Santos. This warning,
he was arrested on seven counts ofwire fraud, three of money laundering,
(17:30):
theft to public funds, making materialialfalse statements to the House of Representatives.
When I announced this, Wayne Resnickactually jumped up in glee. You
were, Wayne, you were clappinglike a seal about to get a fish
for a treat for once. Yourdescription of me is accurate and not exaggerated.
(17:55):
All right. So let's there's twoissues here. One is the criminal
asp back of it, which Wayne, you and I are going to talk
about. And number two, thepolitical part of it, of which we
are going to talk about. Solet's talk about the criminal part because I
want to make a point. He'sbeing accused of lying on his resume.
You can do that. There's nocrime about lying on your resume to get
(18:18):
elected. He is not being hewas in he was. That was the
accusation that originally we looked at.Oh, you mean generically lying, not
criminally accused. That's correct. Butlet's talk about the criminality of it,
all right. A shout out tothe Long Island Office of the Eastern District
of New York for writing this indictmentin a manner that made it easier for
me to wrap my head around thebroad strokes, which you don't always see
(18:41):
it now. Number one, thereare three main things that he is criminally
charged with doing, two of whichare related to him running for and getting
elected to Congress, and one ofthem has nothing to do with that.
So one fraudulent solicitation of political campaigns. He set up an entity to solicit
(19:02):
campaign funds to support his campaign,and according to the government, took at
least some of that money and spentit on luxury designer clothing, credit card
payments, and other personal things,which is a tale as old as politics.
Number two. When he got elected, he was required to make certain
financial disclosures to Congress, and hemade them. But the government is alleging
(19:27):
that in one case he lied bynot including some income that he had earned,
but in another case he lied bysaying that he had made a bunch
of money and had big fat bankaccounts that he didn't actually have. That
(19:48):
is where I question whether he hasI'm not saying this clinically, but some
kind of a true personality disorder,because who law on a congressional form under
penalty of perjury and says they havea bunch of money that they don't.
He backed one of the allegations againsthim. He's a weird guy, isn't
(20:10):
he? George Santus very he isodd in my opinion. Go ahead.
The third and then the third thing, which has nothing to do with him
being a politician, is during thepandemic, he applied for and received pandemic
era unemployment benefits that he was notactually entitled to because he didn't tell them
about a job that he had,and he claimed to be unemployed when in
(20:32):
fact he had a job, Youjust wonder. And he's being called on
to resign by even some Republicans,although most are silent on it, and
politically he's until he's convicted. Actually, I think even with a conviction,
he stays in Congress according to therules, and he's gonna run for the
(20:52):
seat again. Boy, you gottaexplain that one to me, because how
much of a life, even it'sa Republican dist barely he squeaked through.
How does someone run for office?Does he does? He bring the indictment
with him and show it, sayingthere they're after me. It's a witch
(21:15):
hunt. Except he's not Donald Trump. That's the problem. Are you surprised
he hasn't resigned yet? No,give him some time because because and this
is what I would do too,is I would hold my ability to resign
and make of the political problems goaway. I would hold that as a
chit as a bargaining tool with theprosecutors to see if I can get a
(21:37):
better deal on the prison sentence inexchange for agreeing to resigning. And the
reason he is not being forced,i mean literally kicked out is because the
majority of Republicans have a four votemajority, and if he gets booted,
it becomes a three vote majority,and that's a little bit toole to kick
(22:00):
him out. And they just don'thave it all right now, what we
usually do on Wednesday is we haveSteve Gregory in, but unfortunately, oh
no, Steve Gregory is still here. I love it how every time I
come on, it doesn't matter whatday of the week it is. You
always say we always have Steve onTuesdays. I always Steve on Mondays.
(22:22):
I know, we just always haveSteve one sometime. Well, we have
on a fair amount because you doa lot. So this is a story
that we did this warning we mentionedit, and this has to do with
that traffic enforcement in the city ofLos Angeles, and the enforcement is done
by civilians instead of cops. Solet's say you are You're stopped by a
(22:45):
civilian and I'm stopped by a civilian. This is where you flip the bird
and say, who the hell areyou? Let's talk about that. Well,
this is regarding a report that wasput out by the Los Angeles Department
of Transportation. And here's the crazything. This report was due a couple
of years ago, but it wascommissioned three years ago by the La City
Council. Following the events of twentytwenty, after the George Floyd case and
(23:10):
after the subsequent civil unrest there.That's when policing became more scrutinized and everything
was under a lens. It's like, you know, police or racist,
and there was this this whole bigmovement to defund the police. So one
of the byproducts of that movement wasthat critics claimed the LAPD were pulling over
(23:32):
a disproportionate number of blacks and Hispanics. Now that's true statistically correct. Well,
statistically depends on what area of townyou're talking about. It depends if
it was a random stop, ifit depends if it was a crime suppression
operation. There's a lot of factorsthere. And when you look at a
you know, a couple of theoutlets and think the La Times if someone
did a report on it, butthey focused only on one segment of the
(23:56):
Metro Division and they didn't look atthe entire county or the entire city ram
So that statement that the minorities aredisproportionately affected, that's very broad statement.
Well for the LAPD, yes,but and even some commanders have said in
the past that yes, But thenwhen you talk to those boots on the
ground, they say, well,because a lot of the crime that we're
(24:17):
concerned with, and a lot ofthe crime that is committed happens in communities
that are predominantly black and Hispanic.So I guess it depends on what side
of the argument you lie on.So in this particular case, that's kind
of the impetus for this report.So the report found that there needs to
be some infrastructure overhauls and that wouldhelp slow down reckless driving and traffic in
(24:38):
these underserved communities, and then theywould want to put these civilians in place
to do most of the traffic enforcement. Now, they don't get specific on
exactly how they'll do it, speeding, blowing through a red light, unmarked
cars or marked cars. They don'tget into a lot of that, but
there is a presumption that they wouldbe doing some sort of vehicular enforcement,
(25:02):
whether that be in the form ofa car traveling behind another car, whether
that would be you know, havingsomeone parked at an intersection and pulling them
over for a red light violation.There's a presumption that that's included. Now,
I will tell you this a trafficstop is among the most, if
not the most dangerous encounter an officerever has. Let me think about it.
(25:23):
If you get a domestic violence call, you already know in advance there's
violence involved, and there's most likelya weapon involved. On a traffic stop,
an officer has no idea what's comingup. They might be able to
run the plate and they might beable to see that there's a warrant for
the arrest something like that, orif it's the car stolen, but they
don't know that there's a gun inthe front seat. They don't know there's
(25:45):
a knife under the front seat.So that is one of the most dangerous
encounters a cop ever has. Intalking to some officers yesterday, they said,
to hand that, simply hand thatoff to civilians is a recipe for
disaster. Yeah, it makes sensewhen you talk about what appears on its
face to be a reasonably good idea. When it gets into the minutia,
when it gets into the actually enforcement, you go, what the hell are
(26:07):
you doing? By the way,who's gonna pay attention? If someone's trying
to put me pull me over andI think or I don't know that it's
a cop I'm out of there,or do they if they think I'm stopping,
they're crazy, or it's an ambassadorwith a radio. Yeah, because
if you think about it again,this was a long away to report.
If this had been done three yearsago, things might be different, But
(26:29):
I don't think there's much of apush now to change things. Now.
We're gonna go to something that Stevethey did report on, and that is
the La County Juvenile Hall and hownot only facilities, but also how we
as a county where the county officialsdeal with juveniles. Then it's very strange.
I mean, if you ask GeorgeGascone, there's no sus thing as
(26:52):
a real juvenile defendant or criminal.It just doesn't exist. They are.
We have to deal with them inrehabilitation, doesn't matter how many kindergarten kids
they chop up. So there's alwaysbeen a problem. They were supposed to
shut down, or the county's juvenileHall facility was supposed to shut down.
It's not being shut down. Anda team just died of an overdose overdose
(27:15):
inside the facility. So let's followthe story. Sure, And when my
sources reached out to me yesterday,that person who died was one of seven
overdoses total, and the others werehelped through the use of narcan and through
medical personnel. And the big questionis how did the drugs get in?
(27:36):
So when I was talking to theseprobation officers and other sources in the agency,
you know, they described this sortof rampant, sort of wild West
environment in there, because mostly they'reshort staffed. A lot of these officers
are working twenty four hour shifts multipledays in a row, and because of
Lack's policies handed down by the Boardof Supervisors, their ability to enforce rules
(28:00):
has been limited. And you know, they're trying to take away pepper spray,
for instance, and it's gotten veryviolent in there. So this young
man eighteen years old was found unresponsivein his room yesterday morning, and by
the time they tried to administer anarcan, it was too late. And
now they're trying to investigate exactly thesort of chain of events. I will
(28:21):
tell you. Back in February,there were two other overdoses and they were
able to save those two kids.And then just in March they found two
large bundles of pills that were lacedwith fentyl and they sourced. It confirmed
yesterday that this young man did diefrom fentnel exposure. Now I mentioned George
Gascon and maybe I'm not being fairto him, although I don't know how
you can be unfair to him.But it's not just him, it's also
(28:44):
the board of supervisors that is doingthis. Are we looking just a broad
swath of a liberal attitude towards dealingwith juveniles. Well, I think there's
this progressive movement, this you know, hugs over incarceration movement, and you
know, in the interview I didwith one of the sources, one of
the whistleblowers, they explained in greatdetail that there's this sort of systematic effort
(29:11):
to disband the current juvenile detention systemin favor of this new youth program.
And this youth program is tied toa number of nonprofit organizations that will benefit
from county money and from grant dollars. And what it does is it's taking
away the enforcement arm of juvenile detentionand putting it more in a rehabilitation.
They want to take the kids whooffend, regardless of the level or severity
(29:36):
of the crime, and they wantto put them right back in the community
where they offended and try to rehabilitatethem within that community as opposed to putting
them in some sort of a detentionfacility. Now, are there any stats
out there that connect the level ofseverity to the quote success rate of a
rehab program, Although I don't knowhow you defend how you define a success
(29:57):
rate other than recidivism, right andrecidivism is pretty high right now. I
mean that that's the thing. They'reseeing a lot of repeat offenders in these
juvenile systems. When they have thesesuccess stories. When the rehab does work,
it doesn't work on the grander scale. So the number of people who
successfully go through some sort of rehabilitationdoesn't come close to the number of people
(30:18):
who reoffend and go back into thesystem. And I don't have numbers in
front of me, but I cantell you, based on anecdotally from these
officers to tell me that they cantell you the repeat offenders that they see
multiple times coming in and out ofthat place, People that came in at
fourteen years old and at nineteen yearsold, they're still seeing them. And
the other problem that exacerbates this isthe fact that you've got state prisoners now
(30:41):
adults in their twenties who are nowbeing reintegrated into this juvenile system because the
state parole system, the early release, the rehabilitation on the state level,
they're putting that burden now in thecounty probation system, which is already overtaxed
and overwhelmed. So now you've gotthis is the thing that they're having problems
with. You've got people who havea prison skill set, prison survival skill
(31:06):
set, and you're taking twenty fivetwenty six year old gangbangers and now you're
mixing them with fourteen and fifteen yearolds. Yeah, it's a guarantee for
disaster, clearly. And again I'mgoing to ask the question because I'm thinking
in terms of dealing with success,and there's a couple of ways to go.
Number one, is there any systemthey have in place to look at
(31:29):
the number of years, the severityof the crime, how long a juvenile
has been in the system, andsomehow figure out a formula algorithm, if
you will, but in place withjust this system that tells you, Okay,
there's an eighty percent chance that thisindividual is going to come back,
there's a twenty percent chance that comeback, or is it just broad strokes.
(31:52):
If you're in this system, we'rejust going for it. It's broad
strokes. I even think at thispoint based on everything I've been told,
and it doesn't matter if you lookat you know, you mentioned gascon at
the top of the segment, andGascone doesn't want to look at any of
that. All he says is thatyoung people deserve to be rehabilitated. They
don't deserve to be incarcerated. Andso that's the mountain the mantra that went
(32:15):
in day one from him. Itdidn't matter what the numbers are, the
stats showed, it didn't matter whatthe input from boots on the ground said,
It didn't matter any of that.What mattered is he, because of
the progressive ideologies, he did notwant children incarcerated. In terms of you
mentioned understaffing, is there a moveout there? I mean, is there
(32:37):
money to staff? And if therethere's a hiring freeze. There's been a
hiring freeze for a few years now. They're down a hundreds of people in
the probation system in the county andyou've got quite a few of them out
on medically right now. And anyonewho quits, transfers or is fired those
positions are not replaced, and that'sa big problem. And so what they
(33:00):
again, what they want to do, is they want to take them away
from these probation officers who are trainedto maintain control and order, and they
want to hand them over to counselors. Yeah, there's a lot of companies
that have the same philosophy. We'resimply not going to replace, and that
is becoming more and more common.Yeah. Yeah, we know of a
few companies like that don't. Yeah, and and there's no such thing as
(33:22):
recidivism rate because they don't come now, they never come back. But it
is a problem. And now,on top of that, yesterday, as
this young man died in a facility, the state Attorney general announced, you
know, that the judge ruled inhis favor that the county must comply with
(33:42):
a bunch of mandates that were handeddown by a judge a couple of months
ago. So it's a couple ofyears ago rather. So it's nasty over
there, all right, So what'sgoing on? We're unsolved. Well,
we're still in our last few weeksof our hiatus. So we start our
new season at the beginning of nextmonth, and we'll have all new.
Yeah, but for people who havemissed any of those shows, it is
almost on the iHeartRadio app. Yeah, and this is really good stuff and
(34:06):
yeah, and and based on ourdownload numbers, it's still going strong.
Yeah, no, it's it keepsadding up. It's a very unique show.
When you know, you say it'sunlike anything else heard in southern California
or I even say the rest ofthe country, you actually mean it.
Yeah, unlike the rest of ushere, who are so self aggrandizing you
can barely recognize it. All right, Steve, take care, I'll cut
(34:29):
you again. That's unsolved from sevento nine pm, and he's at Steve
Gregory six forty And now, ladiesand gentlemen, without further ado, it's
time for Dean Sharpe, the housewhisper. First of all, you know,
the music is so nice on yourshow. It it moves me so
much, isn't it? Lovely?Lovely beyond lovely. I must tell you,
(34:52):
I was just talking to our bossthe other day about how different you
and I broadcast, And is therea different now? You're nice, you
like people, you actually have aheart. Uh yeah, oh yeah that
yeah, I forgot about yeah somuch. Yeah, you're right, all
right, new stuff that's out there. And we do this occasionally because there's
(35:14):
new stuff coming out in construction,home appliance. Uh that wallpapers sinks.
I mean, all of it iscoming out constantly. So I'm gonna just
throw it to you and I'll throwyou a question or two. New stuff
with Dean Sharp. Okay, SoI I actually get to bring the biggest
breaking news of this Wednesday, inmy opinion, GE has finally released.
(35:38):
It's out there now. They're brandnew all in one washer and dryer combo
one unit washes and dries. Now. The reason why this is such big
news, I know the market hashad all in one washers and yeah year
the year, and they're all garbage. They are all garbage. And I'll
(36:00):
tell you why they're all garbage.Because they've attempted to just simply combine two
units with the same technology that they'vebeen using forever. And here is why
this is different. GE on thedrier side of things, has decided to
abandon the idea and rightly so,that baking your clothes is the way to
(36:22):
get them dry. They have changedfrom a massive heat source to a heat
pump technology. Now I know,I don't want to get overly technical,
and I know there aren't many listenerswho have experienced hanging their clothes out on
a clothesline or their laundry out ona clothesline to dry. But if you
had, if you ever have,you know this fact. It can be
(36:45):
one hundred degree day outside and ifthere's no wind blowing, those clothes will
stay wet for a long long time. But it can actually be a cold
day, but if there's a breezeboom, everything dries quickly. What has
happened now, Bill, is gehas abandoned the idea of high heat.
They still use heat, it's warmair, but they're using a heat pump
(37:08):
very much like an air conditioner removesmoisture from the air. And they're using
a massive fan inside the dryer unit. And guess what, the clothes dry
beautifully. So what we're talking abouthere is a large capacity washer dryer.
Now it's not extra large capacity,but it's large capacity. It'll take ten
(37:30):
pounds of laundry in this unit.That's more than the big comforter. I
mean, it's plenty all in onefrom beginning to end the cycle two hours
washing and drawing it'll notify you inbetween the washing and drying cycle if you
wanted to add a fabric softener sheet. Otherwise it'll just keep on going.
(37:53):
Now, GE has done a coupleof surveys. I know you've got questions
for me. They've done a coupleof surveys about how long laundry usually sits
in the washing machine before it getstransferred to the dryer. Their conclusion is,
on average, it's like two hours. And that, Yeah, I
don't think that surprises anybody, right, So you think about the fact that
(38:14):
you know, washing and drying,it's something you have to be present for.
But with these units, here isa unit where if you bought two
of them, you would literally doubleyour laundry capacity in the house. But
the point is it's all in one. This thing works. It works amazing
and because of this, I thinkit's a game changer. Bit. Okay
with that, if I'm buying astandard washer and dryer, for a decent
(38:37):
washer dryer, maybe a thousand bucksapiece, two thousand dollars, how much
is this puppy, Well, Ithink these days, for a decent large
capacity washer and dry you're you're atabout fifteen hundred apiece. Really, so
you're in about three grand these days. Okay, this thing retails of from
ge at twenty eight hundred and thenother other retail outlets. We don't have
(39:00):
special deals and such. Again,on top of that, it is it's
actually slightly less than you'd be payingfor a combo. Wow, you don't
usually see that. Okay, that'sgood news, all right. So you
want to wear out yours? Areyou gonna get one? By the way,
you know what A Tina seriously wantsus to consider it. I mean,
(39:22):
we're kind of at the end runof our existing machines, and she
could, she says, I coulduse the extra space. Plus, here's
another thing. Uh, no dryervent, no vent to the outside,
and no gas connection. This isall electric. So she's just tired of
taking that handle and rolling your clothesthrough that roller. She just can't take
(39:43):
it anymore. She is, she'syou know, she's tired of the washtub
that I make her use. Andexactly anyway, for those of you that
don't know Dean, don't be surprised. Okay, let's move on to more
news stuff Dean that is out therethat you pay attention to. Okay,
So here is something JJ is gonnalike this. Uh, I've got a
new pet door, a new favoritepet door for homes. And the reason
(40:07):
why this is important is because,uh, you know, the old top
flap rubber pet door, it hasa lot of problems with it. Number
one, you're gonna end up replacingthat rubber flap eventually, of depending on
how often it gets used. Numbertwo it's not really that weather proof.
Uh and uh and number three dogsreally actually behaviorally don't prefer it. And
(40:32):
so how do you how do youhow do you train them to turn the
knob? Though on the new oneit's a little lever for their paw.
No. This is uh. Thisis from a company called Plexi Door p
l e x I d o RPlexi Door. You can go to plexidoor
dot com and see what I'm talkingabout. It is a French door as
(40:52):
a as a pet door, meaningit's two pieces that open on a side
hinges, not a flap that holefrom the top. So pet consists just
kind of nose in really easily.It's it's easier for them to push it
open. And yet at the sametime it is way more weather proof than
the flaps because these can be rigidinsulated doors. This is actually a hurricane
(41:16):
proof door that doesn't leak energy likea crazy hole in the bottom of the
boat, and yet dogs like itbetter. You know, It's that's so
logical. It's one of those whydidn't I think of that kind of things?
Exactly well simple and yet exactly brilliant. It's just a it's just a
better mousetrap. It's a better wayto do a pet door. And that's
(41:39):
why I'm recommending it to people,because it stays cleaner, it's gonna last
longer, it's just better on everysingle front. And it's just simply this
one idea. Let's just hinge twodoors from the sides instead of the flap,
and it's well worth it all rightnow. One of a topic that
I love to talk to you aboutbecause you have taught so many any people
(42:00):
in my world not to use garbagedisposals the way we traditionally use garge disposals.
So I know there is something thatwill replace the garbage disposal and it
is not a pet pig that isin the backyard. Correct, correct,
correct, Yeah, this is anothergame changer in my book. Now it's
(42:21):
not out there yet, but youcan go to the website. These are
available for pre order. They're comingout later this year. It's made by
a company called Suppora sep you rA and essentially, you know, I
mean here in southern California now youhave to separate in most municipalities your compost
materials. They don't want you putin food down the drain anymore. And
it's not good for our city sewersystem or your pipes by the way,
(42:45):
to grind up and mascerate food andhave that guck lining your pipes. So
the only option you've had so faris to get a compost bin. You
get something sitting up on the counter, taken up counter space, or it's
an extra trash can under the underthe cabinets. Now this device, this
hooks up under your sink like agarbage disposal, but it's not a garbage
(43:08):
disposal. It is a it's abox that can will contain the food whole.
So you can go ahead now andjust go right back to how you
were doing it before. You canscrape all your food right down the drain
into the sink. The difference isinstead of macerating this all up and getting
jammed and causing sludge and all ofthat. It's simply and I think you'll
(43:30):
appreciate this again, it's a brilliantidea. It's just a big Archimedes screw
that basically grabs the food whole andmoves it off to the side of the
drain and into a container underneath thesink. Yeah, but how much that
simple? How much can it hold? It can hold a lot. It's
(43:51):
as large as a full sized trashcan compost bin. Yeah. Now that's
disgusting taking, you know, takingit out, dumping it and ringing it
back. So I mean you're talkingabout not only some work. Although that's
a small potato so to speak.By the way, I'm assuming you can
put small potatoes in it. Canoh they are, But just physically getting
(44:13):
rid of food that's been sitting therein a container for a while. Well,
the container is it keeps the fooddry. Number one. It is
filtered. It's just like any compostcontainer. It's sealed, it's filtered,
and so the food is starting tocompost down, not rot, compost,
and eventually when it gets full,it tells you and you just carry it,
you know, you grab the bag, you seal it up, and
(44:34):
you carry it out and drop itin the appropriate can outside. It is
what we all have to do anyway. This is just a much more familiar
and simpler way of doing it becauseso many people are just used to,
you know, using the garbage disposal. So this is garbage disposal habitual without
any of the detriments of what agarbage disposal does towards enough, any idea
(44:57):
of the price, because I alwaysask that you know what you got me
on that one. I'm not exactlysure where the price is right now.
I'd have to go and check iton the website. I hears something and
I never thought you would even getto this. Maybe I have it wrong,
but anything with the word track lightsin it is enefhma to you.
(45:19):
Well, these they say they're tracklights, but we're talking about a system
of LED lights that you can mountinto the eves around your house. You
can put them as densely or assparsely as you want. They're smart device
controlled and basically, you know,we have a lot of clients who are
like, is there any way thatI can make like holiday lights for my
house permanent? But I don't wantto be the guy on the block that
(45:42):
keeps his Christmas lights up all yeararound. This is how you do it.
You mount these led lights all aroundyour eves. The cool thing,
though, is in the past whenwe did this it has it's all or
nothing. You turn them on,turn them off. These they change color.
They can be orange for Halloween,they can be blue for Hanuka,
they can be green and red forChristmas or whatever. Or you can select
(46:05):
the number of bulbs that you wantto have turned on and they can just
be regular house down lighting during theyear. All right, one quick question
and then we have to bail.Electrical source does need an electrical source.
It does need electrical source. Itneeds some kind of outlet or feed from
the attic out to your eaves.But these are all low voltage lights,
so the entire house is pulling about. You know, three lightbulbs, three
(46:30):
incandescent light bulbs worth of energy whenthey're operating. And if soule voltage,
I think you can do it yourselfright and just absolutely fall right through the
ceiling of your home. All right, Dean, thank you this Saturday six
to eight in the morning, justbefore handling the law, and Sunday nine
to twelve, have a good one. Catch you this week film. All
right, coming up, Gary andShannon. Gary, a lot going on
