Speaker 1 (04:34):
I do.
Speaker 6 (04:36):
A problem A.
Speaker 3 (04:37):
Lot of yes DearS in my family too. Let me
tell you. Oh, okay, why don't we do it? We're
off into a weird direction this morning. I don't know why,
a weird tangent. Thank you for that, Neil, Uh for
putting us there. Okay, you guys ready to do it.
Speaker 4 (04:56):
It's time we or handle on the news on this morning.
Let me see where that is.
Speaker 3 (05:03):
Wednesday, August thirteenth, Amy, Neil and me lead story. Very
interesting summit coming out, really interesting. Trump and Putin are
meeting over the war in Ukraine without Zelensky because I
(05:25):
guess Zelensky is not gonna have any say in it,
and Zeleiski is saying hey, without saying it, you know.
Speaker 2 (05:31):
Their meeting is gonna happen. What they're meeting where their
meeting in Alaska?
Speaker 3 (05:37):
Okay, And that is a whole interesting story about meeting
in Alaska. They had to find a place in Alaska
that didn't have tourists because this is tourist season in Alaska,
which by the way, can be insanely hot, and mosquitos
the size of your arm. So they're a meeting at
a joint base, a military base Elmendorff Richardson, because that
(05:59):
seems to be the best protected. Now, Alaska is very interesting.
Why because Alaska was bought by the United States in
eighteen sixty seven from Russia for seven point two million
dollars about three cents an acre. Russia sold Alaska the
United States. Why because it was the farthest reach and
(06:23):
it just there was not much happening in Alaska and
Russia needed the money of the time. The guy who
sold Alaska to or bought Alaska from Russia is a
guy by the name is Seward. And Seward was one
of the victims of the assassination of Abraham Lincoln.
Speaker 4 (06:42):
He was Secretary of State at.
Speaker 3 (06:44):
That time, and he was attacked and he survived. He
was stabbed a whole bunch of times, and he survived
the whole thing. I mean, it's a fascinating story. And
in any case, the purchase of Alaska at the time
was known as Seward's folly, best steal, best deal we
(07:05):
ever made. Actually, maybe the Louisiana purchase was the best
deal because double the size of the United States for
fifteen million dollars. Thomas Jefferson did that from Napoleon. That
was eighteen oh three. Okay, that's those are jeopardy questions.
Speaker 7 (07:20):
Did we know that they had or did Russia must
not have known there was oil?
Speaker 3 (07:25):
No, no, no, no one, No one knew, and who cared.
This was eighteen sixty seven oil. No one cared about oil.
Speaker 2 (07:33):
You eat it for your lamps.
Speaker 3 (07:35):
No, I don't even think they had. Did they have
oil lamps in those days? Yeah, yeah they did, but
it was really dirty and the best the best fuel
was whale oil from sperm whales.
Speaker 2 (07:50):
Oh, that whole that whole industry was here of you know,
dealing with the whales. You go on the East Coast
and it was all.
Speaker 3 (07:59):
Well, they would go into the Bearing Sea up in
the area of the Aleutian Islands and that was huge.
And that was being Alaska and Russia. Okay, let's move on,
like we can go on forever on that one. By
the way, just one one quick one. The Trump putin
summit this summit. The whole thing started when Trunk during
(08:22):
the campaign days said he's going to stop the war.
Day one not so much, and he was going to
go to the summit telling Putin, you.
Speaker 4 (08:31):
Are I will stop the war. Now I'm going to
tell Putin to stop the war. That has changed.
Speaker 3 (08:36):
Now to a feel out meeting is the way it's
being described by the White House. Nothing is going to happen,
by the way, and Russia is grabbing as much land
as possible as a negotiating ployee.
Speaker 4 (08:54):
All right, it's do one more and then we'll take
a break.
Speaker 7 (08:56):
There will be choices. The White House said that homeless
people in Washington, d c. Will have choices. They'll be
given the option to leave their homeless camps, be taken
to a homeless shelter, be offered addiction or mental health services,
or they'll be taken to jail and fine.
Speaker 3 (09:17):
Yeah, we have much the same choices here, except there's
no jail or fine and there's no fine or order.
No we have you know, we have homeless programs where.
Speaker 2 (09:32):
De we yeah, that are empty most of the time.
Speaker 3 (09:35):
Yeah, some are empty because practically you've got a real problem.
You can't bring your pets, and people love their pets.
Speaker 6 (09:44):
I don't think that's the main driver. That's an outlier.
Speaker 4 (09:48):
I don't know. I don't know. A lot of people
have pets. And you've seen.
Speaker 3 (09:53):
Out on the freeway where the dogs are holding up
the signs with their paws.
Speaker 6 (09:57):
Aren't they cute?
Speaker 4 (09:59):
Yeah?
Speaker 3 (09:59):
They are absolutely darling. And then you have you can't
bring all of your belongings.
Speaker 2 (10:05):
So belongings.
Speaker 4 (10:08):
Belongings are two shopping cars.
Speaker 2 (10:10):
I love when you talk about the homeless when Amy
and I step over them every morning. But that's okay,
that's absolutely love. Amy and I live close to each
other and we probably deal with it much more than
you do.
Speaker 4 (10:23):
Yeah, big mazelto for you.
Speaker 2 (10:25):
All right, all right, So you've got Trump deploying National
Guard again, this time in DC. This is he's also
declared federal control of the DC police. And I know
it raises an eyebrow to some, but this is how
it's done. It's just different. It's a district, it's not
a state. So it allows the president to do this,
(10:47):
at least for a small amount of time. I think
he's got thirty days into the Home Rule Act of
nineteen seventy three, so that balances local self governance with
federal oversight there at the Capitol, and then after that thirty.
Speaker 3 (11:01):
Days Congress can't extend it into law, and Congress will
extend it because Trump calls Mike Johnson and says, I
want it extended, and it's done. Also, there is no
place else in the country where Trump has the authority
to take over local police departments.
Speaker 4 (11:22):
Just doesn't exist accept DC.
Speaker 2 (11:25):
Did you see the press conference where someone asked the
chief of police in Washington, d C. So what is
the chain of command, to which she replied, what does
that mean?
Speaker 4 (11:36):
Yeah, no, one knows no, one knows no.
Speaker 2 (11:39):
But she didn't know what chain of command? Have meant?
Speaker 4 (11:42):
Oh, the very concept chain of command?
Speaker 2 (11:45):
Yeah ooh, And someone had to step in to answer
and explain it. Yeah, because she didn't. She goes, what chin, so,
what's the new chain of command? And she goes, what
does that mean? And then someone else stepped up and
answered that's so.
Speaker 3 (12:00):
Once I had a partner at early days in my
legal career and he did evictions and personal injury. I
did the surrogacy part of the practice, and I had
to do he was sick one day, so I had
to go in and fill in from him. And so
they called a case and the defendant who was about
to be evicted, stood up, showed the paperwork and said,
(12:22):
your honor, I've just filed for bankruptcy and that's under
federal law and it stops everything. Bankruptcy stops everything because
it's a federal issue. The judge says, I don't give
a damn whether you've gone bankrupt or not. I'm going
to go ahead with the case. And you could hear
the clerk of the court say the supremacy clause of
(12:45):
the Constitution. Oh, okay, this was a judge, this was
a sitting.
Speaker 2 (12:51):
Judge, but I'm going to do it in my head.
Speaker 4 (12:56):
Oh here's another one where okay, go ahead, Amy, I'll
just let you go with it.
Speaker 7 (13:01):
Well, the big question is are they getting homesick? Democratic
lawmakers in Texas say they are considering their options over
reports that they may be returning to Texas as soon
as this weekend. Remember, more than fifty state representatives left
the state so that the legislature wouldn't have a quorum
(13:22):
and they couldn't vote on redistricting, and that redistricting being
done in order to give Republicans another five seat advantage yep.
Speaker 3 (13:32):
And this usually is done during the census year every
ten years, but they cut it in half, doing it redistricting.
Speaker 4 (13:43):
And why are they redistricting? This is the truth.
Speaker 3 (13:48):
Donald Trump called for it, He called for the legislature
and said, I want this done. Guess what happened redistricting,
And it's the Democrats are going to come right back
and do exactly the same thing in democratic states. I
mean this, it's just ridiculous. They might as well have
(14:09):
fistfights on the legislative.
Speaker 4 (14:13):
Yeah, why not.
Speaker 3 (14:15):
Let's get real for a moment. You know, we don't
need any of this legal crap going on. You know,
we don't need votes, we don't need motions. We need fistfights,
all right.
Speaker 2 (14:27):
So the boil water notice for all the folks in
port A Ranch, Granada Hills has been lifted finally, so
testing confirmed water is meeting the standards, the safety standards
that they look for at the LADWP. But here's the deal.
They still say that you need to flush your household
(14:50):
and that means five minutes of running the water. Affected
customers apparently will receive a twenty dollars bill credit for
there on their bill there for that five minutes of
flushing the water.
Speaker 3 (15:03):
So you know, it's pretty good because you don't spend
twenty bucks with five minutes of running water, so that's
a pretty good deal. I mean, the DWP is you know,
being fairly generous here.
Speaker 2 (15:16):
Okay, okay, sure, I just thought I mentioned early generous
after multiple.
Speaker 3 (15:20):
Days of yeah, yeah, well yeah, that's DWP. Yeah, one
more before we take a break. Amy.
Speaker 7 (15:25):
Something's brewing on the eastern Ukrainian border. Small groups of
Russian troops have broken through Ukraine's defense in the eastern
Dnetsk region. Russian troops are making a push towards Dobrapilia.
It's a town about twelve miles north of a key
(15:46):
strategic city of Pokrovsk, which has been in the Kremlins
sites for more than a year. So apparently they're breaking
through and just going in in several places. They don't
have any equipment or anything, only weapons, so it's not
a it's not a mass breakthrough. It's supposed to be
like little pockets of people breaking.
Speaker 3 (16:06):
Because Russia needs as much land or wants as much
land as possible pre summit on Friday, that is going
to give up. It's clearly negotiating ploy because remember what
President Trump said, we're going to swap. They're going to
swap land. So how much does Ukraine give up? AND's
(16:30):
gonna say, look at all the land that we're letting
you have, as long as we have this part of
eastern of eastern Ukraine. And so and by the way,
how much negotiation you think is going to do in
terms of the swapping for Russia to give up its
land in terms of the swap.
Speaker 4 (16:50):
So it's just it's Prutin setting up his cards, that's it.
And he's going to have as many as he possibly can.
Speaker 3 (16:59):
All right.
Speaker 2 (17:00):
Judge in Santana just ruled on Monday that the Orange
County Supervisor Andrew do Owes the government geez almost a
million bucks eight hundred and seventy eight thousand and change.
He was convicted, if you remember, for bribery, and he
(17:21):
was sentenced five years federal prison back in June. And
now he's expected to begin serving his term Friday. And
I'll have to pay this money and all kinds of craziness.
Speaker 3 (17:32):
You know, I got very involved in his campaign when
he ran, not endorsing him at all, just embedding myself
just to see how campaigns run and talking to the donors, etc.
And I never thought that he would. He just seemed
like a guy who wouldn't do this. Also, he got
(17:52):
away with I would say murder. He wanted, well not murder,
but the county officials wanted over ten million dollars that
he repays, and the judge said, now they agreed to
eight hundred thousand, I think eight eight seventy eight, two
(18:12):
hundred and thirty dollars and eighty cents. See, he should
have kicked up another eighty cents. It would have been
a flat two hundred and thirty one dollars.
Speaker 7 (18:21):
Spirit Airlines warning investors that it might have to go
out of business in the next year. It said in
its quarterly filing that it was unsure it will be
able to meet minimum cash on hand requirements put in
place as part of its end to its bankruptcy.
Speaker 6 (18:38):
The company said, there.
Speaker 7 (18:40):
Are more planes flying and there's weak demand for domestic
leisure travel and that's making the situation untenable. So in
response to this report yesterday, Spirit stock plummeted forty percent,
Frontier stock jumped thirty percent.
Speaker 3 (19:00):
That's left and if you ever phone Spirit Airlines and
you were part of the survey that said you'd rather
walk to wherever you're going than Spirit airlines.
Speaker 4 (19:11):
That's one of the reasons.
Speaker 1 (19:13):
You know.
Speaker 2 (19:13):
What turned me off was their tagline no shoot, no shirt,
no shoes, come aboard, and then I thought, no, that's
not for me. Hello this second. Yes, inflation. I love
CNN when they write these stories. Everything's like, okay. Consumer
prices rose zero point two percent in July, keeping the
(19:36):
annual inflation rate at two point seven. This is a
tiny bit below what they were predicting, which was two
point eight. And you know, everybody's waiting for the shoe
to drop on the terraff. They keep saying it's coming,
it's coming, it's coming, and it probably will come. We're
seeing it with meat, at least, we're seeing prices rising.
But stock futures rose after the data was released. Dow
(20:00):
futures jumped two hundred and ten points and SMP five
hundred rows zero point forty five percent, and so moderate inflation.
It's holding steady. We shall see if the tariffs continue
to check things out.
Speaker 4 (20:18):
And isn't today a new record for the Dow?
Speaker 3 (20:21):
It opened up what at for forty four thousand, Amy
I mean, the stock market is doing gangbusters.
Speaker 6 (20:28):
Yeah, it's up two sixty five right now.
Speaker 4 (20:31):
Although it's kind of interesting.
Speaker 3 (20:33):
I love the story of the Bureau of Labor Statistics,
a woman that ran it. Trump fired her because he
didn't like the numbers, didn't like the employment numbers. So
he is replacing her with someone that is a MAUGA supporter,
straight out political appointment, and you're going to see numbers
(20:54):
change dramatically. The first thing he did was say, I
don't we don't even want monthly reporting, we want quarterly reporting.
And the economists and the market started screaming at him
because those monthly reports are so critical to ascertaining what
the economy is doing. And he backed up. He backed
down immediately. But you will see it will be the
(21:16):
president who now determines the numbers being released. I mean,
it's crazy, all of these political appointments for people that
are just totally unqualified, but they are supporters, and that
seems to be the big difference.
Speaker 4 (21:35):
All right, moving on, We got one more story and
then we'll take a break.
Speaker 7 (21:39):
Click and go go in the way of the Dodo Eastman.
Kodak is one hundred and thirty three years old. It's
warning investors it might not survive much longer, and it's
saying that it doesn't know if it's going to be
able to pay five hundred million dollars in upcoming debt obligations,
raising doubt about whether they can stay in business. Kodak
(22:01):
at one point in the nineteen seventies was responsible for
ninety percent of the film yeah, and eighty five percent
of the cameras in the United States.
Speaker 3 (22:10):
I mean, it used to be one of the premier
companies worldwide companies, and it just well, life is changing.
One of the problems is Kodak was the official camera
of Spirit Airlines and that didn't help.
Speaker 2 (22:28):
They're all going down at once. Did you know that
they Kodak was brought the first design of the digital camera, Yeah,
and they said no to it because they didn't want
to lose their film sales, which were supply.
Speaker 3 (22:45):
And George Eastman, it was Eastman Kodak for a million years.
Is he was able to actually have the first box
camera if you see, if you've seen those early box cameras,
you talk about revolutionary. I mean just unbelievable what he did.
And the first camera sold for twenty five bucks. And
(23:05):
I looked it up. That's about eight hundred and seventy
dollars for a phone today or a camera today, which
isn't a whole lot, you know, yeah, for a prototype.
Do you know much the first flat screen TV cost,
first one that came out. I met a guy who
had it and he said he spent twenty five thousand
(23:28):
dollars for it and it was a forty two incher.
Speaker 6 (23:31):
Wow, you can get that for three hundred dollars.
Speaker 4 (23:32):
Now, I know.
Speaker 3 (23:33):
Well, how about the first laptop? I'd love to know
what how much that puppy cost?
Speaker 2 (23:40):
People didn't have laps before.
Speaker 4 (23:43):
That's correct, all right?
Speaker 2 (23:45):
You know, I am convinced now that Donald Trump wakes
up every morning and goes, hey, what haven't I dicked
with yet? And someone says, I don't think you've messed
with museums, sir, All right.
Speaker 4 (23:56):
Let's do that.
Speaker 2 (23:57):
Let's do that today. So you've got now the White
House and Nancy announcing aggressive review. I'm not sure what
that means of the Smithsonian Museums. So you've got our
two hundred and fiftieth birthday coming up America of course,
coming up next year, and the Trump administration has basically
(24:19):
said We're going to scrutinize this institution. We're going to
look over everything, make sure that we're going to restore
truth insanity to American history. I'm not sure what that means.
Speaker 4 (24:30):
Oh I do, but.
Speaker 2 (24:32):
I said it kind of with tongue in cheek. But
you know, the response for the Smithsonian is the proper
response that their work is grounded in a deep commitment
to scholarly excellence, rigorous research, and the accurate factual presentation
of history.
Speaker 4 (24:50):
And what is Well, here's the point.
Speaker 3 (24:52):
The White House has the pencil here and orders the
Smithsonian to do whatever the hell it want. And the
White House is now saying that factual representation is exceptionalism
in America. It is proving that America is the greatest
country in the world and we haven't done enough about it.
(25:14):
So what's going to be changed. I think we're going
to look differently as slavery. I think we're going to
look differently of our experience with Native Americans. I think
we're going to look differently at Japanese internment. I think
we're going to look very different differently in terms of history.
Speaker 2 (25:31):
What that we built homes in a lovely place called
mans in are tracked home.
Speaker 3 (25:37):
Now you watch, you watch how history is going to
change because at this point the Smithsonian, well, it's very
woke in that it does recognize, talk about and has
exhibits of some of the worst episodes chapters in American history.
Speaker 4 (25:54):
And we've got some bad ones, we really do.
Speaker 3 (25:57):
You're something called slavery, civil rights, treatment of Japanese during
the internment camps. I mean all of it when you
look at it. Oh, how about every single treaty that
we have ever had with Native Americans that has been broken.
That's part of our history. That is part of our history,
and it is It is not pretty, and frankly, the
(26:21):
White House wants pretty.
Speaker 2 (26:24):
That's what's going to happen. I think that's our strength.
And the only way we get strength is by looking
back and noticing what we've done wrong.
Speaker 7 (26:33):
No trains in sight, but you can sure hear them.
There's a neighborhood in Van Nuys where they said, you
know what, they got train horns blaring almost daily, sirens
two and apparently it's a guy who lives in the
neighborhood and he sets them off and they rattle the
(26:54):
windows and residents are not happy about it, and the
guy talked to ABC seven and said, I know it's
not fair to my neighbors. Absolutely, if I were in
their shoes, i'd complain too. It's loud and it's disturbing.
But he says, I need help. I don't know how
else to cry out for it, and that's why I'm
setting off the sirens. I'm crying for help, but he's
not saying what he's crying out for help for.
Speaker 4 (27:16):
Yeah, I'll tell you.
Speaker 3 (27:17):
The help he needs is with a bail bondsman to
get him out of jail. How he has not been
arrested is beyond me. I just don't get it. I mean,
he is violating so many ordinances by doing that and
just keeps on going and going.
Speaker 4 (27:34):
The cops have been called over and over again and
they're doing nothing.
Speaker 6 (27:37):
Haven't issued any citations yet.
Speaker 4 (27:40):
No, it's crazy.
Speaker 3 (27:42):
They should arrest him, he should get some warnings, and
they throw him in jail.
Speaker 4 (27:46):
I mean that's the appropriate response.
Speaker 2 (27:49):
Well, maybe if it was rap music, they'd come out.
Speaker 3 (27:53):
Maybe maybe. All right, we're done, guys, that's it. This
is KFI six. You've been listening to the Bill Handle

That fills out.
Speaker 2 (03:08):
And you know what's funny. That's what my younger brother
says about me. It's like, go, man, you look wrinkly.
It goes. It's hard to wrinkle when you're blown up blown.
Speaker 4 (03:17):
Yeah, yeah, that's exactly my point.
Speaker 3 (03:19):
Okay, yesterday was Taco Tuesday, and we celebrated by eating tacos.
Today is hump Day Wednesday, and how do we celebrate
hump Day eating tacos? No, subsequent to eating tacos, we
engage in hump day Okay, which, by the way, for me,
(03:44):
sex is humping someone's leg on the ground.
Speaker 2 (03:48):
Don't Expand we got the joke, Bob.
Speaker 3 (03:51):
Oh, thank you, thank you. I didn't get it. So

Speaker 6 (03:56):
You're not getting it.
Speaker 3 (03:58):
My female dog, for some reason or another. Uh yeah,
it's a little izzy. Uh for some reason, humps my
male dog, and I wonder what's.
Speaker 4 (04:10):
Going on here. I don't know. The answer to that,
she's trying to dominate him.
Speaker 3 (04:18):
Yeah, maybe maybe and seems to be uh and veterinarian.
Speaker 2 (04:23):
Yeah, yeah, you dominate your husband that way?
Speaker 3 (04:27):
Why get dominated the game? And I enjoy it so
and do dominate your husband?
Speaker 1 (04:34):
I do.
Speaker 6 (04:36):
A problem A.
Speaker 3 (04:37):
Lot of yes DearS in my family too. Let me
tell you. Oh, okay, why don't we do it? We're
off into a weird direction this morning. I don't know why,
a weird tangent. Thank you for that, Neil, Uh for
putting us there. Okay, you guys ready to do it.
Speaker 4 (04:56):
It's time we or handle on the news on this morning.
Let me see where that is.
Speaker 3 (05:03):
Wednesday, August thirteenth, Amy, Neil and me lead story. Very
interesting summit coming out, really interesting. Trump and Putin are
meeting over the war in Ukraine without Zelensky because I
(05:25):
guess Zelensky is not gonna have any say in it,
and Zeleiski is saying hey, without saying it, you know.
Speaker 2 (05:31):
Their meeting is gonna happen. What they're meeting where their
meeting in Alaska?
Speaker 3 (05:37):
Okay, And that is a whole interesting story about meeting
in Alaska. They had to find a place in Alaska
that didn't have tourists because this is tourist season in Alaska,
which by the way, can be insanely hot, and mosquitos
the size of your arm. So they're a meeting at
a joint base, a military base Elmendorff Richardson, because that
(05:59):
seems to be the best protected. Now, Alaska is very interesting.
Why because Alaska was bought by the United States in
eighteen sixty seven from Russia for seven point two million
dollars about three cents an acre. Russia sold Alaska the
United States. Why because it was the farthest reach and
(06:23):
it just there was not much happening in Alaska and
Russia needed the money of the time. The guy who
sold Alaska to or bought Alaska from Russia is a
guy by the name is Seward. And Seward was one
of the victims of the assassination of Abraham Lincoln.
Speaker 4 (06:42):
He was Secretary of State at.
Speaker 3 (06:44):
That time, and he was attacked and he survived. He
was stabbed a whole bunch of times, and he survived
the whole thing. I mean, it's a fascinating story. And
in any case, the purchase of Alaska at the time
was known as Seward's folly, best steal, best deal we
(07:05):
ever made. Actually, maybe the Louisiana purchase was the best
deal because double the size of the United States for
fifteen million dollars. Thomas Jefferson did that from Napoleon. That
was eighteen oh three. Okay, that's those are jeopardy questions.
Speaker 7 (07:20):
Did we know that they had or did Russia must
not have known there was oil?
Speaker 3 (07:25):
No, no, no, no one, No one knew, and who cared.
This was eighteen sixty seven oil. No one cared about oil.
Speaker 2 (07:33):
You eat it for your lamps.
Speaker 3 (07:35):
No, I don't even think they had. Did they have
oil lamps in those days? Yeah, yeah they did, but
it was really dirty and the best the best fuel
was whale oil from sperm whales.
Speaker 2 (07:50):
Oh, that whole that whole industry was here of you know,
dealing with the whales. You go on the East Coast
and it was all.
Speaker 3 (07:59):
Well, they would go into the Bearing Sea up in
the area of the Aleutian Islands and that was huge.
And that was being Alaska and Russia. Okay, let's move on,
like we can go on forever on that one. By
the way, just one one quick one. The Trump putin
summit this summit. The whole thing started when Trunk during
(08:22):
the campaign days said he's going to stop the war.
Day one not so much, and he was going to
go to the summit telling Putin, you.
Speaker 4 (08:31):
Are I will stop the war. Now I'm going to
tell Putin to stop the war. That has changed.
Speaker 3 (08:36):
Now to a feel out meeting is the way it's
being described by the White House. Nothing is going to happen,
by the way, and Russia is grabbing as much land
as possible as a negotiating ployee.
Speaker 4 (08:54):
All right, it's do one more and then we'll take
a break.
Speaker 7 (08:56):
There will be choices. The White House said that homeless
people in Washington, d c. Will have choices. They'll be
given the option to leave their homeless camps, be taken
to a homeless shelter, be offered addiction or mental health services,
or they'll be taken to jail and fine.
Speaker 3 (09:17):
Yeah, we have much the same choices here, except there's
no jail or fine and there's no fine or order.
No we have you know, we have homeless programs where.
Speaker 2 (09:32):
De we yeah, that are empty most of the time.
Speaker 3 (09:35):
Yeah, some are empty because practically you've got a real problem.
You can't bring your pets, and people love their pets.
Speaker 6 (09:44):
I don't think that's the main driver. That's an outlier.
Speaker 4 (09:48):
I don't know. I don't know. A lot of people
have pets. And you've seen.
Speaker 3 (09:53):
Out on the freeway where the dogs are holding up
the signs with their paws.
Speaker 6 (09:57):
Aren't they cute?
Speaker 4 (09:59):
Yeah?
Speaker 3 (09:59):
They are absolutely darling. And then you have you can't
bring all of your belongings.
Speaker 2 (10:05):
So belongings.
Speaker 4 (10:08):
Belongings are two shopping cars.
Speaker 2 (10:10):
I love when you talk about the homeless when Amy
and I step over them every morning. But that's okay,
that's absolutely love. Amy and I live close to each
other and we probably deal with it much more than
you do.
Speaker 4 (10:23):
Yeah, big mazelto for you.
Speaker 2 (10:25):
All right, all right, So you've got Trump deploying National
Guard again, this time in DC. This is he's also
declared federal control of the DC police. And I know
it raises an eyebrow to some, but this is how
it's done. It's just different. It's a district, it's not
a state. So it allows the president to do this,
(10:47):
at least for a small amount of time. I think
he's got thirty days into the Home Rule Act of
nineteen seventy three, so that balances local self governance with
federal oversight there at the Capitol, and then after that thirty.
Speaker 3 (11:01):
Days Congress can't extend it into law, and Congress will
extend it because Trump calls Mike Johnson and says, I
want it extended, and it's done. Also, there is no
place else in the country where Trump has the authority
to take over local police departments.
Speaker 4 (11:22):
Just doesn't exist accept DC.
Speaker 2 (11:25):
Did you see the press conference where someone asked the
chief of police in Washington, d C. So what is
the chain of command, to which she replied, what does
that mean?
Speaker 4 (11:36):
Yeah, no, one knows no, one knows no.
Speaker 2 (11:39):
But she didn't know what chain of command? Have meant?
Speaker 4 (11:42):
Oh, the very concept chain of command?
Speaker 2 (11:45):
Yeah ooh, And someone had to step in to answer
and explain it. Yeah, because she didn't. She goes, what chin, so,
what's the new chain of command? And she goes, what
does that mean? And then someone else stepped up and
answered that's so.
Speaker 3 (12:00):
Once I had a partner at early days in my
legal career and he did evictions and personal injury. I
did the surrogacy part of the practice, and I had
to do he was sick one day, so I had
to go in and fill in from him. And so
they called a case and the defendant who was about
to be evicted, stood up, showed the paperwork and said,
(12:22):
your honor, I've just filed for bankruptcy and that's under
federal law and it stops everything. Bankruptcy stops everything because
it's a federal issue. The judge says, I don't give
a damn whether you've gone bankrupt or not. I'm going
to go ahead with the case. And you could hear
the clerk of the court say the supremacy clause of
(12:45):
the Constitution. Oh, okay, this was a judge, this was
a sitting.
Speaker 2 (12:51):
Judge, but I'm going to do it in my head.
Speaker 4 (12:56):
Oh here's another one where okay, go ahead, Amy, I'll
just let you go with it.
Speaker 7 (13:01):
Well, the big question is are they getting homesick? Democratic
lawmakers in Texas say they are considering their options over
reports that they may be returning to Texas as soon
as this weekend. Remember, more than fifty state representatives left
the state so that the legislature wouldn't have a quorum
(13:22):
and they couldn't vote on redistricting, and that redistricting being
done in order to give Republicans another five seat advantage yep.
Speaker 3 (13:32):
And this usually is done during the census year every
ten years, but they cut it in half, doing it redistricting.
Speaker 4 (13:43):
And why are they redistricting? This is the truth.
Speaker 3 (13:48):
Donald Trump called for it, He called for the legislature
and said, I want this done. Guess what happened redistricting,
And it's the Democrats are going to come right back
and do exactly the same thing in democratic states. I
mean this, it's just ridiculous. They might as well have
(14:09):
fistfights on the legislative.
Speaker 4 (14:13):
Yeah, why not.
Speaker 3 (14:15):
Let's get real for a moment. You know, we don't
need any of this legal crap going on. You know,
we don't need votes, we don't need motions. We need fistfights,
all right.
Speaker 2 (14:27):
So the boil water notice for all the folks in
port A Ranch, Granada Hills has been lifted finally, so
testing confirmed water is meeting the standards, the safety standards
that they look for at the LADWP. But here's the deal.
They still say that you need to flush your household
(14:50):
and that means five minutes of running the water. Affected
customers apparently will receive a twenty dollars bill credit for
there on their bill there for that five minutes of
flushing the water.
Speaker 3 (15:03):
So you know, it's pretty good because you don't spend
twenty bucks with five minutes of running water, so that's
a pretty good deal. I mean, the DWP is you know,
being fairly generous here.
Speaker 2 (15:16):
Okay, okay, sure, I just thought I mentioned early generous
after multiple.
Speaker 3 (15:20):
Days of yeah, yeah, well yeah, that's DWP. Yeah, one
more before we take a break. Amy.
Speaker 7 (15:25):
Something's brewing on the eastern Ukrainian border. Small groups of
Russian troops have broken through Ukraine's defense in the eastern
Dnetsk region. Russian troops are making a push towards Dobrapilia.
It's a town about twelve miles north of a key
(15:46):
strategic city of Pokrovsk, which has been in the Kremlins
sites for more than a year. So apparently they're breaking
through and just going in in several places. They don't
have any equipment or anything, only weapons, so it's not
a it's not a mass breakthrough. It's supposed to be
like little pockets of people breaking.
Speaker 3 (16:06):
Because Russia needs as much land or wants as much
land as possible pre summit on Friday, that is going
to give up. It's clearly negotiating ploy because remember what
President Trump said, we're going to swap. They're going to
swap land. So how much does Ukraine give up? AND's
(16:30):
gonna say, look at all the land that we're letting
you have, as long as we have this part of
eastern of eastern Ukraine. And so and by the way,
how much negotiation you think is going to do in
terms of the swapping for Russia to give up its
land in terms of the swap.
Speaker 4 (16:50):
So it's just it's Prutin setting up his cards, that's it.
And he's going to have as many as he possibly can.
Speaker 3 (16:59):
All right.
Speaker 2 (17:00):
Judge in Santana just ruled on Monday that the Orange
County Supervisor Andrew do Owes the government geez almost a
million bucks eight hundred and seventy eight thousand and change.
He was convicted, if you remember, for bribery, and he
(17:21):
was sentenced five years federal prison back in June. And
now he's expected to begin serving his term Friday. And
I'll have to pay this money and all kinds of craziness.
Speaker 3 (17:32):
You know, I got very involved in his campaign when
he ran, not endorsing him at all, just embedding myself
just to see how campaigns run and talking to the donors, etc.
And I never thought that he would. He just seemed
like a guy who wouldn't do this. Also, he got
(17:52):
away with I would say murder. He wanted, well not murder,
but the county officials wanted over ten million dollars that
he repays, and the judge said, now they agreed to
eight hundred thousand, I think eight eight seventy eight, two
(18:12):
hundred and thirty dollars and eighty cents. See, he should
have kicked up another eighty cents. It would have been
a flat two hundred and thirty one dollars.
Speaker 7 (18:21):
Spirit Airlines warning investors that it might have to go
out of business in the next year. It said in
its quarterly filing that it was unsure it will be
able to meet minimum cash on hand requirements put in
place as part of its end to its bankruptcy.
Speaker 6 (18:38):
The company said, there.
Speaker 7 (18:40):
Are more planes flying and there's weak demand for domestic
leisure travel and that's making the situation untenable. So in
response to this report yesterday, Spirit stock plummeted forty percent,
Frontier stock jumped thirty percent.
Speaker 3 (19:00):
That's left and if you ever phone Spirit Airlines and
you were part of the survey that said you'd rather
walk to wherever you're going than Spirit airlines.
Speaker 4 (19:11):
That's one of the reasons.
Speaker 1 (19:13):
You know.
Speaker 2 (19:13):
What turned me off was their tagline no shoot, no shirt,
no shoes, come aboard, and then I thought, no, that's
not for me. Hello this second. Yes, inflation. I love
CNN when they write these stories. Everything's like, okay. Consumer
prices rose zero point two percent in July, keeping the
(19:36):
annual inflation rate at two point seven. This is a
tiny bit below what they were predicting, which was two
point eight. And you know, everybody's waiting for the shoe
to drop on the terraff. They keep saying it's coming,
it's coming, it's coming, and it probably will come. We're
seeing it with meat, at least, we're seeing prices rising.
But stock futures rose after the data was released. Dow
(20:00):
futures jumped two hundred and ten points and SMP five
hundred rows zero point forty five percent, and so moderate inflation.
It's holding steady. We shall see if the tariffs continue
to check things out.
Speaker 4 (20:18):
And isn't today a new record for the Dow?
Speaker 3 (20:21):
It opened up what at for forty four thousand, Amy
I mean, the stock market is doing gangbusters.
Speaker 6 (20:28):
Yeah, it's up two sixty five right now.
Speaker 4 (20:31):
Although it's kind of interesting.
Speaker 3 (20:33):
I love the story of the Bureau of Labor Statistics,
a woman that ran it. Trump fired her because he
didn't like the numbers, didn't like the employment numbers. So
he is replacing her with someone that is a MAUGA supporter,
straight out political appointment, and you're going to see numbers
(20:54):
change dramatically. The first thing he did was say, I
don't we don't even want monthly reporting, we want quarterly reporting.
And the economists and the market started screaming at him
because those monthly reports are so critical to ascertaining what
the economy is doing. And he backed up. He backed
down immediately. But you will see it will be the
(21:16):
president who now determines the numbers being released. I mean,
it's crazy, all of these political appointments for people that
are just totally unqualified, but they are supporters, and that
seems to be the big difference.
Speaker 4 (21:35):
All right, moving on, We got one more story and
then we'll take a break.
Speaker 7 (21:39):
Click and go go in the way of the Dodo Eastman.
Kodak is one hundred and thirty three years old. It's
warning investors it might not survive much longer, and it's
saying that it doesn't know if it's going to be
able to pay five hundred million dollars in upcoming debt obligations,
raising doubt about whether they can stay in business. Kodak
(22:01):
at one point in the nineteen seventies was responsible for
ninety percent of the film yeah, and eighty five percent
of the cameras in the United States.
Speaker 3 (22:10):
I mean, it used to be one of the premier
companies worldwide companies, and it just well, life is changing.
One of the problems is Kodak was the official camera
of Spirit Airlines and that didn't help.
Speaker 2 (22:28):
They're all going down at once. Did you know that
they Kodak was brought the first design of the digital camera, Yeah,
and they said no to it because they didn't want
to lose their film sales, which were supply.
Speaker 3 (22:45):
And George Eastman, it was Eastman Kodak for a million years.
Is he was able to actually have the first box
camera if you see, if you've seen those early box cameras,
you talk about revolutionary. I mean just unbelievable what he did.
And the first camera sold for twenty five bucks. And
(23:05):
I looked it up. That's about eight hundred and seventy
dollars for a phone today or a camera today, which
isn't a whole lot, you know, yeah, for a prototype.
Do you know much the first flat screen TV cost,
first one that came out. I met a guy who
had it and he said he spent twenty five thousand
(23:28):
dollars for it and it was a forty two incher.
Speaker 6 (23:31):
Wow, you can get that for three hundred dollars.
Speaker 4 (23:32):
Now, I know.
Speaker 3 (23:33):
Well, how about the first laptop? I'd love to know
what how much that puppy cost?
Speaker 2 (23:40):
People didn't have laps before.
Speaker 4 (23:43):
That's correct, all right?
Speaker 2 (23:45):
You know, I am convinced now that Donald Trump wakes
up every morning and goes, hey, what haven't I dicked
with yet? And someone says, I don't think you've messed
with museums, sir, All right.
Speaker 4 (23:56):
Let's do that.
Speaker 2 (23:57):
Let's do that today. So you've got now the White
House and Nancy announcing aggressive review. I'm not sure what
that means of the Smithsonian Museums. So you've got our
two hundred and fiftieth birthday coming up America of course,
coming up next year, and the Trump administration has basically
(24:19):
said We're going to scrutinize this institution. We're going to
look over everything, make sure that we're going to restore
truth insanity to American history. I'm not sure what that means.
Speaker 4 (24:30):
Oh I do, but.
Speaker 2 (24:32):
I said it kind of with tongue in cheek. But
you know, the response for the Smithsonian is the proper
response that their work is grounded in a deep commitment
to scholarly excellence, rigorous research, and the accurate factual presentation
of history.
Speaker 4 (24:50):
And what is Well, here's the point.
Speaker 3 (24:52):
The White House has the pencil here and orders the
Smithsonian to do whatever the hell it want. And the
White House is now saying that factual representation is exceptionalism
in America. It is proving that America is the greatest
country in the world and we haven't done enough about it.
(25:14):
So what's going to be changed. I think we're going
to look differently as slavery. I think we're going to
look differently of our experience with Native Americans. I think
we're going to look differently at Japanese internment. I think
we're going to look very different differently in terms of history.
Speaker 2 (25:31):
What that we built homes in a lovely place called
mans in are tracked home.
Speaker 3 (25:37):
Now you watch, you watch how history is going to
change because at this point the Smithsonian, well, it's very
woke in that it does recognize, talk about and has
exhibits of some of the worst episodes chapters in American history.
Speaker 4 (25:54):
And we've got some bad ones, we really do.
Speaker 3 (25:57):
You're something called slavery, civil rights, treatment of Japanese during
the internment camps. I mean all of it when you
look at it. Oh, how about every single treaty that
we have ever had with Native Americans that has been broken.
That's part of our history. That is part of our history,
and it is It is not pretty, and frankly, the
(26:21):
White House wants pretty.
Speaker 2 (26:24):
That's what's going to happen. I think that's our strength.
And the only way we get strength is by looking
back and noticing what we've done wrong.
Speaker 7 (26:33):
No trains in sight, but you can sure hear them.
There's a neighborhood in Van Nuys where they said, you
know what, they got train horns blaring almost daily, sirens
two and apparently it's a guy who lives in the
neighborhood and he sets them off and they rattle the
(26:54):
windows and residents are not happy about it, and the
guy talked to ABC seven and said, I know it's
not fair to my neighbors. Absolutely, if I were in
their shoes, i'd complain too. It's loud and it's disturbing.
But he says, I need help. I don't know how
else to cry out for it, and that's why I'm
setting off the sirens. I'm crying for help, but he's
not saying what he's crying out for help for.
Speaker 4 (27:16):
Yeah, I'll tell you.
Speaker 3 (27:17):
The help he needs is with a bail bondsman to
get him out of jail. How he has not been
arrested is beyond me. I just don't get it. I mean,
he is violating so many ordinances by doing that and
just keeps on going and going.
Speaker 4 (27:34):
The cops have been called over and over again and
they're doing nothing.
Speaker 6 (27:37):
Haven't issued any citations yet.
Speaker 4 (27:40):
No, it's crazy.
Speaker 3 (27:42):
They should arrest him, he should get some warnings, and
they throw him in jail.
Speaker 4 (27:46):
I mean that's the appropriate response.
Speaker 2 (27:49):
Well, maybe if it was rap music, they'd come out.
Speaker 3 (27:53):
Maybe maybe. All right, we're done, guys, that's it. This
