Speaker 1 (00:00):
You're listening to Bill Handle on demand from kf I
am six forty and now Handle on the news. Ladies
and gentlemen, here's Bill Handle.

Speaker 2 (00:30):
Good morning everybody, Bill Handle and the morning crew, the
full Morning Crew.

Speaker 3 (00:34):
It's Taco Tuesday, July twenty nine. And guess who's back Neil?

Speaker 2 (00:40):
Yay, yay, yay, okay, nothing that Neil has the term okay, ConA.

Speaker 3 (00:47):
That was once we're done Neil.

Speaker 2 (00:50):
Yesterday it was Neil's birthday.

Speaker 3 (00:53):
Happy birthday, Neil.

Speaker 2 (00:54):
And you you know, we have to figure out who's
the youngest one.

Speaker 3 (00:58):
I'm by far the oldest.

Speaker 2 (01:00):
Son is the oldest. No, I'm older than Kno young Yeah,
I know, I know. That was just a segue into
asking the ladies how old they are.

Speaker 3 (01:10):
Actually that's what.

Speaker 4 (01:13):
I want, yea.

Speaker 2 (01:17):
And yeah, okay, and I assume Mann's not going to
share that either, right, No.

Speaker 5 (01:24):
Okay, why do you want to know?

Speaker 6 (01:25):
Because I ask.

Speaker 3 (01:26):
Everybody everything, Are you kidding? I ask people how much
money they make? But I know how much money you
guys make.

Speaker 5 (01:31):
I was going to say, you know how much I make?

Speaker 3 (01:33):
So what I do know?

Speaker 2 (01:33):
Of course I do, of course I do, and me
could I want to be mean, how much money do
you make? Uh? You know what, more money than you
will ever see in a lifetime, you know, on one check. Remember,
I mean, I can't know what there there are so
many damn zeros.

Speaker 3 (01:53):
I have stopped counting. Well, let me put it this way.

Speaker 2 (01:57):
Because the station is doing so well, and AM Radio
is doing so well, I am making fifty percent of
what I did fifty years five years ago. Half, No kidding,
anybody need a tissue. I'm just telling you, and I'll
tell you what. It's kind of interesting to show you where.
Uh No, I won't go into that because frankly, that's

(02:20):
too much.

Speaker 6 (02:21):
Okay, most overpaid person on the planet.

Speaker 2 (02:24):
Uh you know what, I you know, probably now I
am now when I was making Yeah, yeah, now I
think I'm overpaid. However, let me tell you when I
was making twice as much money five years ago, I
was a bargain for the station. I was a true
bargain for the station. Today, anybody who makes over sixty

(02:45):
thousand dollars a year to cost the station money, it's
a dead loss.

Speaker 6 (02:50):
I think.

Speaker 3 (02:51):
Am I going to get a call from management?

Speaker 6 (02:53):
Yeah?

Speaker 2 (02:53):
It really is now, No, it's just it's you know,
it's a different world for all of us. It is
a different world for all of us. The jobs aren't
as as numerous. Uh, it's hard to get him. It's
no raises. Matter of fact, you don't get a raise,
but you still stay working. That's a raise. And that's

(03:14):
across the board. That's just not iHeart, My heart is
not any different than any other major corporation. I make
a lot of fun of it, but you know, it's
just it's a different corporate world, it's all.

Speaker 6 (03:24):
No, it is very different because you know, Anne and
I are talking about, gosh, we scraped up some money
and hopefully will eat meat this week, and you're going
we tore out our We tore out our entire fireplace
again because it was ugly.

Speaker 3 (03:38):
One bathroom because you didn't like him.

Speaker 6 (03:43):
Well, no, you did the entire house again.

Speaker 2 (03:45):
Why the last time I got a call from management,
I got a text yesterdsay from Corvino, Paul Corvino, divisional president,
and he wrote me. He texted me in reference to
the store we did about the butt sniffer. U. Now, Neil,
are you familiar with the butt sniffer story?

Speaker 3 (04:07):
Yeah?

Speaker 6 (04:07):
I actually photoshopped a picture of Conway and said, Okay,
did you really the guys from Burbank? Oh, it's hilarious.

Speaker 2 (04:16):
So anyway, I had I was taking he was arrested
and he's a serial butt sniffer, and went on, and
I took his side, of course I did, and I mentioned,
you know what, it's no big deal.

Speaker 3 (04:27):
This is the way dogs say hello.

Speaker 6 (04:29):
Well, excellent argument, counselor.

Speaker 2 (04:32):
That's exactly exactly what Corfedo said to me, precisely. Oh
it's sort of victimless, I guess, is a victimless crime. Yeah,
the would would passing gas be a defense? Or would
it please him?

Speaker 3 (04:51):
I don't know.

Speaker 2 (04:51):
I haven't spoken to him yet. I can give you
my personal experience. Okay, that's enough of that.

Speaker 3 (04:58):
Cono. Good morning, Good morning, Bill, Good morning Neil. Nice
to have you back. Amy, good morning, Good morning Bill, and.

Speaker 2 (05:05):
Will, Good morning Will, Good morning Bill, mister Cole Schreiber
and Anne producer, extraordinary, good morning morning.

Speaker 3 (05:12):
That's true. I was this morning.

Speaker 2 (05:13):
I was looking at myself and I said I really
love you and and said thank you.

Speaker 3 (05:18):
I go. It wasn't you, Ann. I was talking to myself.

Speaker 5 (05:21):
You're sitting there telling himself that he loves himself.

Speaker 3 (05:23):
That's true. I did in a room.

Speaker 2 (05:24):
I was looking at stories and I was figuring out,
he'll hear it. That's probably true. Okay, just rattling along,
all right, you guys. Ready, of course we have big
news naturally, which we do every single morning as we
start the show, here we go, it's time for handle
on the news on this Taco Tuesday, July twenty nine

(05:45):
with Amy Neil who is back and me lead story. Yes,
what a shocker? Another shooting? What this is the third,
fourth one in the last of days.

Speaker 6 (06:01):
This happened. We had a stabbing.

Speaker 2 (06:04):
Yeah, and I went right into a knife control. Usually
I do gun control, but we're gonna talk more about
hide control.

Speaker 6 (06:12):
Those mass those mass stabbings.

Speaker 2 (06:15):
Yes, in this case, this was midtown Manhattan. A guy
you know, just literally walks into the lobby of a
hotel room, a skyscraper, I think it was an office building,
just opens fire immediately, no one knows why killed. A cop,
shoots three other people, they die critically wounding a fifth

(06:38):
before he kills himself, and he shoots himself in the chest,
which you rarely see.

Speaker 3 (06:42):
It was in the lobby. Then he goes up to.

Speaker 2 (06:47):
An upper floor I think floor thirty three gets out
of the elevator and then shoots someone and then shoots himself.
They have no idea what the.

Speaker 4 (06:58):
They actually do have some idea they do. Now they're still,
you know, trying to piece it all together. But they're
saying that he had a beef with the NFL and
the NFL offices were in that building, and that it
might have been tied to CTE. He said he has
that that's that brain injury again when you play football.

(07:18):
Even he didn't play in the NFL, but for some
reason had a beef with the NFL. And Mayor Adams
said this morning that in that building there are a
couple of different banks of elevators and he may have
gotten This is they're still trying to put it together.
It's not definitive, but they're saying that he may have
gotten into the wrong bank of elevators, so he didn't
go to the NFL offices, ended up in another office

(07:41):
by mistake.

Speaker 6 (07:42):
Okay, the biggest problem is that he should have done
it all in reverse.

Speaker 3 (07:46):
Yes, fine, no question about it.

Speaker 2 (07:49):
Yet you hate that when these people who shoot up
their families and shoot up neighbors and people in banks
and they don't start with that, absolutely right.

Speaker 5 (07:57):
Yeah, he went to school here in southern California.

Speaker 2 (08:01):
Yeah, we're getting We're putting out a lot of nutcases recently.
I wonder why, I mean butt sniffers, just I don't.

Speaker 5 (08:13):
Know that we can compare those two.

Speaker 6 (08:15):
They are the only people crazy. Well, you pay the taxes.

Speaker 2 (08:18):
Yeah, you talk to a butt snuffy out there and
see what she has to say.

Speaker 4 (08:24):
All right, moving on Natanya, who says it ain't so,
but Trump says it's time to take some action. So
President Trump has broken with Israel on this one. He
says there is real starvation in Gaza, even though Natanna,
who came out yesterday and said that there is no
starvation campaign, and Trump said that the US is going

(08:47):
to set up food centers in Gaza. He says we
have to get the kids fed, and later added that
things that he had seen were scenes of real starvation.

Speaker 5 (08:56):
He said, you can't fake that.

Speaker 3 (08:58):
Yeah, I'm wondering whind this.

Speaker 2 (09:00):
Who would say that, deny what is there in front
of our eyes? And not only is that inhumane and
completely crazy, but it destroys the credibility of the Israeli government,
completely wipes it out, and it used to be where
you'd have Israel saying one thing and in the Arab
States if they were at war, saying something else. And

(09:21):
of course the Arab States were all liars and Israel
the only part of that world telling the truth. Well,
look at what's happening now. There is no starvation in Gaza,
I mean literally, And one of the ultra light ultra
right cabinet members say this is fake news and this

(09:41):
whole thing that I just don't get it. Now, the
issue of genocide, I think we had to do that
at some point, and because the argument of genocide, that
one is up in the air, because the term genocide
means you're going after a people and eliminating them or
re settling them, kicking them out of a country.

Speaker 3 (10:01):
Because those are those people. Jews were killed because they
were Jews.

Speaker 6 (10:07):
That was the reason.

Speaker 2 (10:08):
Armenians were killed by the Turks, simply because they are Armenian.
The Palestinians are not being killed because they are Palestinians.
They're being killed because war was declared against Hamas for
a terrorist act. There is a difference between the two,
and people are not realizing that or.

Speaker 3 (10:29):
Not discussing it.

Speaker 2 (10:30):
That's not to say that sixty thousand Palestinians have died,
which is probably two thirds innocent. But you can't throw
the word genocide out there, just willy nilly. All right,
moving on, is it Gazelle Gazela Gaalaine?

Speaker 6 (10:49):
I always want to strangely enough, I always want to
say ges Laine, Yeah, spells her name. Yes, she's a
a what a strange character. So more news comes out
of her situation. She of course was a former girlfriend
of Jeffrey Epstein. She also was an accomplice, actually his pimp.

(11:11):
She I think she's more fascinating than he is.

Speaker 2 (11:14):
Yeah, and she not only yeah, well she was pimping
for him, grooming these young girls, but also diving into
the sexual escapades. So I mean across the board. Yeah,
she may be more of an accomplice if you will,
or this is.

Speaker 6 (11:31):
Right up your alley though, because this is like a technicality,
or that's exactly technicality.

Speaker 2 (11:39):
Yeah, that's exactly what happens. Every time someone's convicted. The
lawyers go, we're going to appeal, Right, that appeal is
bs because you can't appeal what the jury said. This
is what we find, this is who we believe this
is what the judges found. Now you can argue that
the judge procedurally did something wrong, should have left in evidence,

(12:01):
or should have not allowed evidence in whatever can Those
are technical issues as to the trial. This issue is
kind of an interesting issue.

Speaker 6 (12:09):
It is so she was sentenced to twenty years. We
all know that in federal prison. That was in twenty
twenty two.

Speaker 3 (12:15):
Right now.

Speaker 6 (12:15):
The interesting thing here is she's going to she's now
going to the Supreme Court and say, overturn my conviction.
This technicality here is that she's saying the government promised
something through Epstein's plea.

Speaker 2 (12:37):
Promised Epstein that if he pled guilty, then you have
the other court of appeals in the different district, New
York district. That it was also charging him that what
he said in his plea, because you have to accept
the fact, yes I did this, yes and a plea,

(12:57):
And the government said to Epstein, we will not try
you or use that against you in New York, which
is a different district now, and his.

Speaker 6 (13:08):
Accomplishment was shielded through that's right.

Speaker 2 (13:10):
Well, it's said Epstein.

Speaker 3 (13:13):
And his accomplices.

Speaker 2 (13:15):
Now does that include her, and does that include her
in a different district?

Speaker 3 (13:20):
This is a legitimate Supreme Court case, and they're going
to take it.

Speaker 6 (13:24):
Listen, listen to this. Though I love that she's playing.
You know that she's leaning on Trump. She said. President
Trump built his legacy in part on the power of
a deal, and surely he would agree that when the
United States gives its word, it must stand by it.
So says her attorney, Well.

Speaker 2 (13:42):
I mean that's an argument saying that this plea deal
included her and the government. Strangely enough, the government is
going the other way while Trump is talking about the
possibility or not eliminating the possibility of a pardon. Can
you imagine that what's going on. I'll talk about this
a little bit later. Can you imagine if Trump pardons her?

(14:05):
What the fallout is going to be?

Speaker 6 (14:07):
But what do you need to in this case?

Speaker 2 (14:09):
If she gets what know, if the Supreme Court rules
in her favor, it's tossed, her conviction is tossed in
New York, and then they may argue, well, no, I
think based on what the court said and her conviction
in New York, could she be tried in Florida? Probably? Probably,

(14:34):
they could retry her in Florida. It's complicated stuff.

Speaker 3 (14:38):
You're right.

Speaker 2 (14:39):
It's a big technicality, but important enough to where the.

Speaker 3 (14:42):
Court may hear it. The court may hear it. Now
they may turn it down too. They may say, now
we're not interest into hearing it. And there's two reasons
for that.

Speaker 2 (14:52):
One is they're perfectly happy with the appeals court decision.
Or they have five thousand applications a year and they
accept about eighty.

Speaker 6 (15:03):
So well, even their names are probably on the list
whose names the judges?

Speaker 3 (15:10):
The justice No, Sometimes sometimes they don't.

Speaker 6 (15:13):
Their joking and sometimes they do.

Speaker 3 (15:16):
Oh, I'm sorry the Epstein list got it.

Speaker 2 (15:18):
I'm sorry, God, I thought you were talking about the decision.

Speaker 6 (15:21):
They're all, dear person that I've never met before. We
have looked over your information. YEP.

Speaker 5 (15:29):
Deadly shooting at a Reno casino.

Speaker 4 (15:32):
At least three people were killed three others were hit
by a gunfire at the Grand Sierra Resort casino in Reno.
Happened about seven point thirty yesterday morning. UH officials say
that the shooter's gun initially malfunctioned when he tried to
shoot at people, but then he got that fixed and

(15:53):
was able to shoot several people. After the shooting, he
took off, got in a car and shot somebody, or
actually didn't get in a car. He shot somebody who
was just driving through the parking lot, killed them, then
got into a back and forth with a casino security guard.

Speaker 5 (16:12):
He was shot and taken to the hospital.

Speaker 2 (16:14):
So, Amy, let me ask you, the real news out
of this is that there were only two shootings yesterday
where people have been killed, as opposed to three or four.
I think that you should report.

Speaker 5 (16:26):
I'll lead with that.

Speaker 3 (16:27):
Yeah, please, all right, Sue, Sue, sue.

Speaker 6 (16:32):
Nobody wins when Trump is in office except the attorneys apparently.
So you've got California Attorney General Rob Bonta, along with
a butt ton of other attorney generals throughout the country.
You got Arizona, Connecticut, Colorado, Delaware, a bunch of them
coming together, and they're announcing a lawsuit against the US

(16:55):
Department of Agriculture. Where are they challenging. Well, they're saying
that this is an unlawful and dangerous demand that certain
sensitive personal datah. Millions of Californians would fall into this,
who receive food assistance through what they refer to as
SNAP or the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program, which I believe
is the one that deals with kids right at schools.

Speaker 2 (17:19):
Yeah, a lot of it, you know, I don't know
specifically it's this one. There's a bunch of food stamp programs.
But the USDA says, you know what we're gonna with
withhold a billion dollars if you don't do what we
have asked you to do is turn over the name,
so security numbers, et cetera, so we can know who
is receiving all of this. Well, they know already, but

(17:42):
it's just one agency doesn't talk to another agency, for example,
the IRS.

Speaker 6 (17:46):
Why this is what I find weird though, Why would
one agency say no, it's private, that's private information. What
do you have it, you dumb ass?

Speaker 2 (17:55):
Okay, But there are certain policies. For example, the IRS
does not share information to any other agency, even.

Speaker 6 (18:06):
If IRS privy to my information.

Speaker 3 (18:09):
I'll tell you why.

Speaker 6 (18:10):
Maybe they want to trustworthy.

Speaker 3 (18:12):
Because they want the taxes.

Speaker 2 (18:14):
Because the government needs the taxes more than anything else.
It's more important for them to collect taxes. So if
you have an illegal migrant paying a tax, paying income tax,
they'd rather have them pay income tax and get tossed out.
Taxes are the most important part of what the government
does reality. I mean, you know, there's defense and you know,

(18:38):
secure the border, YadA, YadA, but you don't screw with
the income of the United States. That's why the IRS
keeps their stuff quiet. That's why is that simple?

Speaker 6 (18:48):
All right?

Speaker 4 (18:49):
Depleted because of deployment. The US apparently blew through about
a quarter of its supply of high end THAD missile
interceptors during Israel's twelve day war with Iran, more than
one hundred thads, which is short for terminal high Altitude
area defense. That's a significant portion of America's stockpile of

(19:10):
the air defense system.

Speaker 3 (19:12):
And that's a problem.

Speaker 6 (19:18):
That's a joke.

Speaker 3 (19:19):
Yeah, yeah, Neil, it was a joke. Have you been
gone too long?

Speaker 6 (19:23):
Yeah?

Speaker 5 (19:24):
I forget sure what jokes sound like.

Speaker 6 (19:26):
I trained myself to just laugh at what you say,
and then I hear real jokes in the outside world
when I go on vacation. FAD sounds like the name
of somebody who's in a fraternity. Yeah, it does. That's
a joke.

Speaker 2 (19:40):
And as Amy pointed out, twenty five percent of the
of the interceptor inventory the United States had that went
to Israel. I mean, there's a real question about how
much is the US ending of American inventory. These things
are in So they send out a missile and I

(20:02):
don't know what it costs, right, Hamas or Iran sends
out a missile of which the FAD intercepts. How much
is these each FAD missile cost? Is it like four
million dollars a piece or something? I mean, it's crazy.

Speaker 6 (20:18):
Thatad's a lot of money.

Speaker 2 (20:19):
See there you go. See that's not funny. See that's funny.
Mine was funny. Okay, that's funny when I do it.

Speaker 4 (20:28):
A single FAD interceptor missile costs approximately twelve point seven
million dollars.

Speaker 6 (20:35):
Jeez wow.

Speaker 2 (20:37):
So every time they released one of those, there's twelve
million dollars gone. And I wonder how much the missile
cost that is going the other way. Not twelve and
a half million dollars, that's for sure, you know.

Speaker 6 (20:50):
So a couple of days ago, I remember coming across
this story. Sounds so weird that that a airline pilot
what the lands and then was taken off the plane
and arrested. And I remember thinking, and they didn't know
why at the time. Well, we have more information. It's
apparently sexual assault child sexual assault charges. This took place

(21:11):
in San Francisco where I was on vacation for a
little bit. The guy's thirty four years old. His name
is rust Them and I'm going with bag wagger because
it's I know it's not I heard Amy say it properly.

Speaker 2 (21:25):
I don't know they knew what they knew what they
were taking him off the plane for.

Speaker 6 (21:31):
We didn't. Yeah, so they you had officers approached the
plane that were in plane clothes. And I love this
in the story says no one said whether they the
officers were masked or not, because that's it, right, It's
like because.

Speaker 5 (21:46):
That they're not nice agents.

Speaker 6 (21:48):
Yeah. I just love the fact that for a while
we were told we're going to be arrested if we
didn't wear masks. Now we're being told if we're in
law enforcement we do wear It's just weird. AnyWho this place,
like I said, at San Francisco International Airport and apparently
this guy has been arrested for.

Speaker 3 (22:11):
Child porn yet.

Speaker 6 (22:12):
Well, but actually this is oral copulation with a child.

Speaker 3 (22:18):
With the miners.

Speaker 2 (22:19):
Yeah, I know that is Can you imagine which is
white child and you're ten years old?

Speaker 6 (22:24):
I mean, yeah, wow, I didn't want to say it,
but that's what it is, and of course you had
the Delta statement come out since we're appalled by the reports.
He's on leave and all of these things for now
and if I didn't mention it, he's thirty four. But yeah,
just a weird story because no one knew. So you've

(22:45):
got people filming, well, yes, but you've got people on
the plane watching their pilot after landing arrested.

Speaker 3 (22:53):
Yeah, and dragged off, but all right.

Speaker 2 (22:56):
They tend to do that though the FEDS are or
local authorities get on those airplanes and just drag people
off while the pilot, the other pilot in this case,
tells everybody or the purser sit down, do not get up,
stay in your seats until this is over so you
all get to see it.

Speaker 6 (23:14):
Uh, we'd just like to thank you for choosing Delta,
or pilot is getting taken off for being a pedal,
thanksgiving for flying Delta.

Speaker 5 (23:26):
Will take it.

Speaker 4 (23:27):
The Trump administration has accepted the unconditional donation of a
luxury jet from Qatar, with no stipulation on what should
happen to the plane after President Trump leaves office. Apparently,
there was a memo of understanding signed earlier this month
by Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth and Qatar's Minister of State

(23:48):
for Defense Affairs not even going to try to say
his name. The deal paves the way for the Air
Force to start the process of retrofitting the plane, which
has been dubbed a flying palace because of its lux
various finishes for the residents.

Speaker 2 (24:02):
I don't I don't have a problem with Qatar donating
an airplane as a gift. Here, here's a gift and
Trump accepting it, not a problem. And then at the
end of Trump's term, then it goes to in his case,
I think the Presidential Library. No problem with any of that,
except that it's going to take what two and a

(24:25):
half three years to retrofit the plane. The taxpayer is
going to pay a billion dollars to retrofit this airplane
for six months of use by the president, where then
it is transferred over to the Presidential Library. So we
get to pay a billion dollars for an airplane that
lasts six months in the meantime. Air Force one now

(24:51):
is well thirty years old. It was in the nineteen nineties,
and it is old, and they're they're retiring it, and they're
building two more Bowing has a contract and it takes
a couple three years to build them. And again, this
is the taxpayer paying for the plane. I'm fine with that.
And it's used by the president. I'm fine with that,

(25:11):
including the next president and the president after that and
the president after that. But this a private donation. Government
does the refrint, refit and then it goes to the library.
Give me a break, I mean that's crazy. Also, Trump
changed that wonderful uh the color scheme of that airplane,
that light blue that Jackie Kennedy had a classic. Oh yeah,

(25:34):
he's changed it completely. No, but it's like it's a
it has three little stripes red, white, and blue, and
it's just it's nothing like and then the.

Speaker 6 (25:45):
Rest of its orange except yeah right, Yeah, that's very funny.

Speaker 2 (25:49):
Yeah, with two big eyes, looks like a raccoon. Yeah, okay,
that is weird. This is I guess a success story. Yeah. Sanders,
he's the Colorado football coach.

Speaker 1 (26:04):
Name.

Speaker 6 (26:04):
We all know. He had his bladder remove now he
you know, this was his choice with his doctors. He's
fifty seven years old. He opted for the bladder removal.
They created a new bladder and this completely removed his
cancer's counter free now, but they had to create I mean,

(26:26):
how fantastical is that that.

Speaker 2 (26:29):
Intestine? Yeah, I mean that is that's really high end tech. Also,
he is one of the greatest ball players they ever lived.
Hall of Famer and he was a running back, extraordinary ability.

Speaker 6 (26:42):
Good. It just shows you that some of these athletes
are so beyond the normal sk I know, people go
through these things, but the fact that he you know,
pushed through made that decision and his thought was I'm
going back to coaching. Yeah, good for him. Yep.

Speaker 5 (26:58):
He did say there's going to be an extratty on
the field now.

Speaker 6 (27:01):
Oh boy.

Speaker 5 (27:02):
He did say that, Oh.

Speaker 6 (27:04):
Yeah, well better than a cost to me bag or something.

Speaker 4 (27:09):
Absolutely, And he said he hopes it raises awareness for
people to go and you know, keep an eye on
things and get tested.

Speaker 5 (27:15):
And of course I'm an advocate of that.

Speaker 4 (27:18):
Kind of like a real life succession. There's been a
lot of rumors about who might run for president in
twenty twenty eight since Trump can't run again, and that
finger has been pointed at Marco Rubio, the Secretary of State,
But when he was asked about it this weekend, it
kind of tap danced around and said, you know what,
my buddy JD. Vance would be a great nominee. Rubio

(27:42):
appeared to kind of throw cold water on suggestions that
he would run for the White House, said Vance is
his closest friend in politics and would be a great
nominee if he decides he wants to do that.

Speaker 6 (27:53):
Did buys the term nominee? I thought he used a
different term I found was interesting, like contender.

Speaker 5 (28:01):
The quotability.

Speaker 2 (28:02):
But he might have said, it doesn't matter because this
is all political speak for you.

Speaker 3 (28:06):
Damn right, I'm gonna run.

Speaker 6 (28:08):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (28:09):
The only the only time is.

Speaker 2 (28:11):
When they don't run, is they say unequivocally, unequivocally, I
am not gonna run. There is no chance I'm gonna run.
You know, put that on the record. I'm not gonna run.
Of course that's lie. Of course they're gonna run. So
it doesn't matter what he says.

Speaker 5 (28:27):
Isn't that what Newsom said, as if he said I'm
not running?

Speaker 3 (28:30):
Of course? Yeah, they're all saying that I'm not gonna run.
Give me a break. Of course you're gonna run. How
can you not.

Speaker 2 (28:36):
He's a nationally known figure, uh, and he's got the
name recognition. People like his politics. Yeah, okay, guys, we
are done. This is kf I A M sixty.
