Speaker 1 (00:01):
You're listening to Bill Handle on demand from KFI AM
six forty.
Speaker 2 (00:12):
So there, I am. I get some emails. You left
wing bastard.
Speaker 3 (00:16):
You you're just part of the radical far left, and
you are destroying America.
Speaker 4 (00:21):
Okay, and now Handle on the news, Ladies and gentlemen,
here's Bill Handle.
Speaker 3 (00:31):
By the way, that promo I was describing how I
am perceived as a complete left wing wacko. You know
what's interesting is that I'm getting I don't know if
it's interesting in you, but it's interesting to me. Ever
since I've married, I've been with Lindsay, who is pretty liberal.
I mean, she's part she's out there. Somehow, I've become
much more liberal. I used to be much more conservative.
Speaker 1 (00:55):
Why I will say this, I will say this, I've
known you for over thirty years. You are less reasonable
than normal.
Speaker 3 (01:06):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (01:06):
You wonder why things like I'm scared.
Speaker 3 (01:10):
Yeah, because I am. I think where we're going is
completely insane. I truly believe that that's the problem.
Speaker 1 (01:16):
Says things out loud, but all presidents do have.
Speaker 2 (01:21):
I think he says it's not.
Speaker 3 (01:22):
Just a question that he says things out loud. Right,
how about firing people in the Justice Department in the
FBI who were assigned lawsuits. It's all never happened.
Speaker 1 (01:36):
That never happened before, That never happens public pardon not
as publicly.
Speaker 2 (01:42):
It doesn't believe me.
Speaker 3 (01:43):
People, if someone were fired for doing that in previous administrations,
you don't think that would make a news you know,
they we would cover it anyway. It's just easier, I think,
to be frightened, uh, in this day and anytime.
Speaker 1 (01:55):
You say far left or far right to me, they
both scared me, Like the far anything. You know, polar
you can't live on the north pole and you can't
live at the South pole.
Speaker 3 (02:06):
So either it's okay, all right, Oh that is that resonates.
That's a good point.
Speaker 2 (02:11):
All right, So much for that. I'll tell you.
Speaker 3 (02:14):
Also, what really frightens me genuinely is being on this
show with Neil Savedra and everyone else. Good morning, Neil,
good morning, Will He good morning, and Will you're wearing
the Dodgers cap.
Speaker 2 (02:27):
Yes, good morning, Bill.
Speaker 3 (02:29):
Well there you are. Cono. You're not no, not no,
you're not. Yeah, yeah, Cono wears his uniform. Do we
have pictures of Cono? Do you ever put up pictures
on our Instagram.
Speaker 1 (02:44):
He doesn't photograph. You can't get him on digital regular film.
Speaker 3 (02:49):
I don't know where Anne is.
Speaker 5 (02:51):
She's she's trying to help me because Will didn't do
his job this morning.
Speaker 3 (02:56):
I was about that. I was about to say, and
where is is Amy?
Speaker 2 (03:02):
Yeah?
Speaker 3 (03:04):
I can hear you, Amy, but I can't see you.
Speaker 1 (03:06):
You need to learn how to turn that on yourself.
Speaker 6 (03:09):
I did. But Anne has a trick. Thank you, Anne, it.
Speaker 3 (03:13):
Was Anne has a trick. She presses the on button
and there's.
Speaker 5 (03:18):
A way to do it so that I don't have
to turn the mute on and off like there's just
no sound.
Speaker 3 (03:23):
Right. And there you are with your la. Uh that
looks like a what we used to call a wife
beater T shirt.
Speaker 6 (03:35):
It is not a wife beater.
Speaker 5 (03:36):
It is a tank top okay, with a sporty white
stripe down the back seat.
Speaker 3 (03:43):
Oh yeah, the white, big white stripe down the back.
Speaker 6 (03:46):
Somebody said I looked like Herbie the Lovebug.
Speaker 3 (03:49):
Oh it's not.
Speaker 2 (03:50):
Bad, it's not bad, all right.
Speaker 3 (03:52):
So we got Will and is a Dodger's cap, and
we got there. We have Amy with her crop top.
Speaker 6 (03:59):
Oh trust me, it's not a crop top. Okay, yeah,
I'm not ever going to be spotted in a crop.
Speaker 2 (04:05):
Okay, so what do you call those things?
Speaker 3 (04:08):
Tank top?
Speaker 2 (04:08):
I'm sorry, you're right, the tank top.
Speaker 1 (04:10):
He gets confused because when his wife wears them, they're
called husband beaters.
Speaker 3 (04:15):
Yeah, pretty much, pretty much. All right, guys, we do
we have stuff to talk about today? Is anybody going
to go to the the No Kings Day parade on Saturday?
No King Day?
Speaker 2 (04:31):
I only mention that because guess who is going?
Speaker 1 (04:33):
Who?
Speaker 2 (04:35):
Lindsey really?
Speaker 3 (04:36):
Of course? Yes, yeah, yeah, she's I tell you, she's
pretty liberal.
Speaker 1 (04:41):
She is a nose ring away and a pink hairdoo
away from being a crazy liberal woman on camera going
I'm not going to have sex ever again until Trump
is dead.
Speaker 3 (04:56):
Wow. That's one more that's added to the lists, because
I've got plenty on that list. You I have, Oh,
I have tons that I can go through, the whole
list that I get. Okay, So, oh and Amy, tonight
you go to the game this afternoon? Yep, oh that
(05:16):
sounds exciting.
Speaker 1 (05:17):
Yeah.
Speaker 5 (05:17):
And you know how Will does his little side hustle
where he goes to stadiums and flies over them around
the country for like the NFL and stuff.
Speaker 6 (05:24):
M Well, he's doing it at Dodger Stadium today.
Speaker 5 (05:26):
So if you see a little bit you're flying buzzing around,
You're flying in what.
Speaker 4 (05:30):
A little Cessna plane up above? It's got a camera
mounted on the wing. We do the live arrows shots
for the networks. And yeah, now you do you do
you fly the airplane?
Speaker 1 (05:40):
Oh lord?
Speaker 5 (05:40):
No?
Speaker 3 (05:41):
Okay, so you're not a pilot. So is this a
company that you work for outside of iHeart?
Speaker 1 (05:47):
Yes, yep.
Speaker 2 (05:48):
And it flies around various events yep.
Speaker 4 (05:51):
Usually usually mostly football and golf for the big the
Big two.
Speaker 3 (05:55):
But so what do you do when you're over a
a stadium that has a roof on it? Do you
just comment on the roof and what it looks like
from various angles?
Speaker 4 (06:04):
Well, I don't even talk. I just shoot the video.
And yeah, it's basically a big commercial. We're usually sponsored
by Goodyear or Geico or somebody like that.
Speaker 3 (06:13):
But wait a minute, Goodyear is flying an airplane up there?
Speaker 2 (06:18):
What is that about?
Speaker 1 (06:19):
Sometimes?
Speaker 4 (06:19):
Yes, there's no blimp. Sometimes I just don't get that.
Have you ever been on the good Year glimp?
Speaker 1 (06:25):
I have not.
Speaker 4 (06:25):
No, I've been in a snoopy the met Life blimp
and that was weird. Oh, it's the same thing, basically. Yeah,
it's just it's a blimp.
Speaker 3 (06:31):
And do you know that Richard Branson had a company,
Virgin Zeppelin Company that he actually came out with a
zeppelin that I was lucky enough to fly into.
Speaker 1 (06:45):
Huh, what's the difference.
Speaker 3 (06:47):
Blimps are the whole thing is an air bag oka.
Zeppelins are the structure that have it's not just ribbed,
it's a first place skeleton that has air bags in it,
and so and so they can actually lift I think
a little bit more because they're much much bigger. And
(07:07):
on the zeppelin, the Virgin Zeppelin, there's a bathroom in
the zeppelin at the back. There was a toilet there
and it's sits more people and it's just it's kind
of fun.
Speaker 2 (07:22):
So we did ten stories yesterday.
Speaker 3 (07:24):
Look at Anne. Okay, fair enough, let's go for it.
Thank you Anne for pointing that out. Time for Handle
on the news with a boy that she said that's
smiling too. Handle on the news with Neil Amy and
me lead story.
Speaker 1 (07:39):
Shut it, Shut it.
Speaker 3 (07:42):
Federal Judge. And every time president does something that's a
little untoward or out of the box, in this case,
he talked about the federal layoffs, the mass federal layoffs
during the shutdown. Of course, lawsuits hit, I mean across
the board. Federal judge shut that down, saying to Trump,
(08:02):
you cannot fire people during a shutdown, and so of
course that's gonna go up. And it turns every two minutes.
It seems. I don't even think it seems. It is
that the president does something that has not been done
by previous presidents, and the lawsuits hit, and in some
cases what he does is upheld. In other cases it's no.
(08:24):
And of course everything is appealed that he loses, and
on the other side, everything is appealed when he wins.
Speaker 1 (08:32):
Would that be funny if he just fired the judge.
You're fired?
Speaker 3 (08:35):
That would doubt, radical left wing judge. All right, moving on.
Speaker 5 (08:40):
Well, that's all they got, at least that's what they're saying.
Hamas says it is handed over all of the bodies
that it has the dead Israeli hostages. They delivered two
more yesterday under the ceasefire deal. The group says it
has returned the bodies of the hostages that it has
(09:02):
been able to reach. There were twenty eight nine bodies
have been returned, and now Hamas is saying, hey, we
need time and we need specialized equipment to go and
recover the rest of the remains from the round.
Speaker 3 (09:17):
A little bit different, a little bit different than what
they were saying before the cease fire that they had
all twenty eight they had them all. Well they don't,
and this is out. They're hurting the Israeli public and
Natagna who are not happy about this. And already the
Israelis have cut off fifty percent of the aid coming
(09:39):
into into Gaza, and so we'll see what happens.
Speaker 2 (09:44):
They'd better come up with them really quick.
Speaker 6 (09:46):
The problem is Hamas doesn't care if the aid gets in.
Speaker 3 (09:51):
Actually it does. It is because it does not so
much for political purposes. It cares not so much for
people starving. To doubt, I don't think they care about that.
Speaker 5 (10:01):
Right because they think it makes Israel look bad when
they cut the eight off.
Speaker 3 (10:04):
One cares, and the other one is if everybody starves
in Gaza, there's no one left to govern. And at
some point do you see the Palestinians overthrowing or trying
to overthrow Hamas. Now it is Kamas has all the arms,
it's willing to shoot its own people. You saw what
just happened where they took those eight quote collaborators with Israel.
(10:28):
Anybody who was against Hamas get shot, and they're just
reasserting themselves right there. As soon they're supposed to disarm,
and well they didn't agree to disarming.
Speaker 2 (10:40):
That's one of the problems about the ceasefire plan.
Speaker 3 (10:43):
But they were theoretically supposed to disarm, and the second
Israel leaves, they move right in. It's almost like a
school line. The second someone goes out the door, someone
comes in the door.
Speaker 1 (10:56):
Jonathan Render Connect twenty nine. He's the one charged with
all that destruction of property and everything with the arson
there for the Palisades fire. They keep referring to him
as the Uber driver And do we know whether he
was driving an uber that day? He was that night
(11:16):
he was because they because they keep using it, and
Cono and I were talking like, damn uber is just
getting torn asunder.
Speaker 5 (11:25):
Well, part of their investigation was that he had dropped
off some passengers earlier, and they had talked to those
passengers and they had said he'd seemed very agitated.
Speaker 1 (11:36):
Well, he's got a lot And if you were listening
to Amy earlier. These charges are growing as the previous
allegation of destruction of property by means of fire and
all this stuff. Will you know, maximize his sentence if convicted,
from twenty to forty five years.
Speaker 3 (11:56):
And they're going to Here's the problem with ours and
these charges is they don't come even close to dealing
with what he did. So the only way they can
basically put him away for the rest of his life
is to add as many charges as possible, ask the
(12:17):
court to give consecutive sentences, which I think the court
will do considering the loss of life and the cost
of property. I mean, you know, hundreds of billions of
dollars or at least tens of billions of dollars, and
so you're going to see him get two hundred and
forty six years or something.
Speaker 2 (12:33):
So that's all they can do.
Speaker 6 (12:34):
And they can't charge him for the deaths of the people.
Speaker 3 (12:38):
Yeah, but it's not murder, Well it's it's technically not murder.
I think it's arson and the death of people as
a result of arson.
Speaker 2 (12:50):
It's not the same as it's Can.
Speaker 1 (12:51):
You assume that you're going to light a neighborhood on
fire and people aren't going to die.
Speaker 3 (12:57):
It's it's implied malice in certain cases.
Speaker 2 (13:01):
I don't know if it is with Arson.
Speaker 3 (13:03):
You know, for example, if you take a car and
run it into a group of people, they're the implied malice.
In other words, doesn't matter whether you intended to kill
anybody or not. The question is how could you not
think that? Of course, that goes, and that's why murder
is allowed in that case. I don't know if Arson
is in that category. I don't know enough about it.
(13:23):
I know very little about law as a matter of fact.
Matter of fact, I know almost nothing.
Speaker 1 (13:27):
We've all heard the show.
Speaker 2 (13:29):
Thank you very much.
Speaker 5 (13:30):
Moving on, GeV Gav maybe posturing on this one. So
there's a story in the La Times about how the
governor is weighing whether to close parts of Interstate five
tomorrow and Saturday, which would affect about eighty thousand people
who travel between La and San Diego counties. And they're
(13:53):
saying it's because during two hundred and fiftieth celebration of
the marinere that's happening at Camp Pendleton this weekend and JD.
Vance is going to be there, the Vice President. They're
going to be doing live fire exercises. And you said
that that could put the public in danger, and so
he might close down I five. And then he also
criticized the administration, saying, you haven't talked to us, you
(14:15):
haven't told us what you're doing. The Marines have put
out a statement they said, we've done all the safety testing.
Training events will occur on approved training ranges with established
safety protocols. No public highways or transportation routes will be closed.
Speaker 3 (14:32):
How about the report that says the Marines are targeting
cars that have Biden Harris bumper stickers on.
Speaker 1 (14:39):
Geez, pew pew. I don't know that that would be
the truth. All right, So journalists exit the Pentagon, and
rightly so. In my opinion, news outlets were nearly unanimous
and rejecting the new rules imposed by the Defense Secretary.
Pete Haig Sath. This all has to do with journalists
(15:01):
being kind of hogtide or you know, saying that they
were going to be tossed if they said or did
certain things, which is correct me if I'm wrong, Bill
against the free press.
Speaker 3 (15:17):
But yeah, well that's what they're saying. Well, it's not
so much free press. Sex Seth does not saying that
you can't print it. I mean that is a violation
of First Amendment. Well, what he is saying is you
are not going to get credentialed. You will not be
let into it. Access is as to it is to
me just as bad. There will be a lawsuit and
(15:38):
that that is an argument that's going to be made.
Speaker 2 (15:40):
Absolutely.
Speaker 3 (15:41):
But the point is is what their heg Seth said,
you can just turn in.
Speaker 2 (15:46):
We're not going to let you in turn in your
press credentials.
Speaker 3 (15:48):
If you do not report on information that's either classified
or otherwise that has not been approved by Hegseth for release,
you cannot do that. That's the problem because the rest
of it, By the way, you can't go into the
Pentagon unescorted.
Speaker 2 (16:05):
That's already there. You know, there's no issue.
Speaker 3 (16:10):
You can't if you get classified information, you can't publish
that's already there. The big issue is you can't publish
classified or non classified information about the Pentagon unless I
say it's okay for you to do that. It's been cleared.
And if you don't do that, we're yanking your credentials.
And what they're all doing is they're all lining up
(16:31):
and go hear, my credentials all the major outlets, even
Newsmacks is saying that, So what you're going to have
is a bunch of bloggers.
Speaker 2 (16:38):
That's what you're going to have.
Speaker 3 (16:39):
Left.
Speaker 1 (16:40):
Wow, they're still going to cover it. And let me
tell you something. They are not going to leave one
rock until. No, they won't. I mean, of course they're
going to cover. You're going to do it as at
a distance. You're still going to get the story.
Speaker 3 (16:55):
They are going to cover it, but you're not going
to get the coverage as if they were in the room,
and you won't see the questions being asked at press
conferences the way you have ABC or you have Fox
throwing questions out. Which does I mean Fox may be
really pro administration, which it is.
Speaker 2 (17:13):
The Fox reporter still throw the questions out.
Speaker 6 (17:17):
Okay, not exactly now.
Speaker 5 (17:20):
Departing from Gay III, the public address systems were taken
over at terminals at four airports in North America on Tuesday,
pro Hamas recordings were played throughout the terminals, messages praising
Hamas using expletives.
Speaker 6 (17:40):
I heard a couple of F bombs.
Speaker 5 (17:42):
They also made comments about the Trump administration and Israeli
Prime Minister Benjamin Nett, Yahoo and ended with free, free Palestine,
and it was said like a real announcement, you know,
like the voice you would expect to hear, free free Palestine,
Free free Palestine.
Speaker 1 (17:58):
It was really creepy, and the Trump administration was upset
because they say, hey, we only put propaganda in the
TSA announcement, and.
Speaker 3 (18:10):
They they have no idea. It wasn't a question of
someone grabbing the system, watching out and grabbing a microphone.
It was hackers that came in.
Speaker 5 (18:20):
That's how I understand it is that the hackers came
in and they or somebody got in an unauthorized user
gained access to the PA system at the Harrisburg Airport
and played an unauthorized recorded message.
Speaker 3 (18:34):
Yeah. I find it interesting that they use the word
hackers as opposed to someone just breaking into the room
where they have the microphones and they just do the announcement.
Speaker 1 (18:45):
These systems are on are computerized, you know.
Speaker 3 (18:51):
Yeah, that's true.
Speaker 1 (18:51):
They have the voice, the white computer voice for supporting
Hamas only.
Speaker 3 (18:56):
Yeah all right.
Speaker 1 (18:58):
Uh so my Mike Johnson is hit with a lawsuit
because there's not enough lawsuits getting thrown around back and forth.
So three weeks since Representative elect I don't know at elite.
She won the special election in Arizona, and because of
(19:19):
the shutdown, the Republican leadership says they can't swear her in,
even though they've sworn others in during shit.
Speaker 3 (19:27):
Pup Reid Republicans, they've sworn Republicans in, but not Democrats.
Speaker 1 (19:32):
So this, this is outright just going against the will
of the people. They just go ahead and process this.
Speaker 3 (19:42):
No, because I'll tell you why. Johnson can't do it,
because she is the last vote that turned that gives
the vote that Congress can force the Epstein files away
from the administration.
Speaker 1 (19:55):
Evitable. People want them out. It's got to come out.
But this person is a duly elected individual.
Speaker 2 (20:01):
Now we go back. Now we go back to Mike Johnson.
Speaker 3 (20:04):
Okay, now we go back to Mike Johnson, the ultimate
horror that exists in Congress, who will do the bidding
of the president under any and all circumstances. And I
know for those of you that argue against me and go, oh, Bill,
you're so biased, look at the quotes of Mike Johnson
where he said, on the record, my job is to
(20:26):
further the agenda of this president.
Speaker 2 (20:29):
That's his job.
Speaker 3 (20:30):
Okay.
Speaker 2 (20:31):
I don't buy that.
Speaker 3 (20:32):
For the Speaker of the House, I'd like him to
be in the House and actually represent the people his
constituents as opposed to the president. That's my complaint, not
a horror, but a concubine. Well, if you're going to
be specific, he's got one. He's got one, John, Yeah,
(20:54):
I don't know anyways, Yes, So anyway, she's going to
be and we'll going to happen.
Speaker 1 (20:58):
Those Epstein files are going to them out, and it's
going to they are eventually they are.
Speaker 3 (21:02):
You know what, I think the only thing that's going
to happen to Trump is that Epstein It's going to
show that I've said this before, is going to show
that Trump is a lot closer to Epstein or was than.
Speaker 2 (21:15):
Has been painted. But then so were all the other
people too.
Speaker 3 (21:18):
I just think Epstein is so toxic that any connection
that anybody ever having dinner with Epstein or being in
the same line at a Starbucks with Epstein is going
to get nailed with any connection. That's what I think
is going to happen. All Right, just do one more
and then we'll take a break. Okay.
Speaker 5 (21:38):
Governor Gavin wants an investigation. Governor Newsom calling for a
congressional investigation into Republican groups because of some leaked messages
that exposed anti Semitic, racist comments in a Young Republicans
group chat. The California governor said that calling for gas chambers,
expressing love for Hitler, endorsing rape using racial slurs, this
(22:00):
is not a joke.
Speaker 6 (22:01):
It is not fringe. He says.
Speaker 5 (22:03):
If Congress can investigate universities for failing to stop antisemitism,
it must also investigate politicians' own allies who are openly
celebrating it.
Speaker 3 (22:12):
Yeah, and Van said, Oh, these are just a bunch
of kids, and they were just acting out.
Speaker 1 (22:18):
He referred to it as pearl clutching.
Speaker 3 (22:21):
Yeah, I don't even know what pearl clutching is.
Speaker 1 (22:23):
Oh that's like, oh me, oh my, this is so worrisome. Oh,
like did you see me? Look, I'm clutching my pearl.
Speaker 3 (22:30):
I'm gonna do more about this.
Speaker 2 (22:33):
Have you never heard that I haven't stopped clutching your pearls?
Speaker 1 (22:36):
Yeah?
Speaker 3 (22:36):
I have not. No, I never have.
Speaker 1 (22:39):
Just oh you must have thought it was something else,
not those pearls, the ones on our neck.
Speaker 3 (22:43):
Great, Yeah, what was.
Speaker 2 (22:46):
I gonna say?
Speaker 3 (22:47):
You? You ruin my train of thought. Oh, I'm going
to do this story at seven point thirty, and it's
just these kids having fun. One of the kids having
fun is a state senator, a state senator who was
sixteen nine years old, who happens to be a Republican.
So a lot of these kids, well maybe they're not
so much kids. Well i'll talk more about that, because
(23:08):
you're right. It's a double standard there, It truly is.
And that's the part that it doesn't even matter what
you do, what you say. If you're Republican, you're wrong,
or if you're a Democrat, you're wrong. Nobody crosses the
line anymore. Nobody all right.
Speaker 1 (23:25):
If you don't play the game right, I'm taking my
balls and we're going home. Donald Trump again, even though
I don't think he has legal authority in any way,
shape or form, he said that he'd pressure FIFA to
remove the twenty twenty six World Cup games from a
host city based on the city's politics. The Boston, I guess,
(23:47):
is the third such city to read receive this kind
of threat from Trump also said similar action against we
here in Los Angeles for the twenty twenty eight Olympics.
He says safe issues but ultimately, you know he works politics.
Speaker 3 (24:05):
Of course it's politics, so would them yeah, well he can.
He doesn't have jurisdiction, of course no, But would you
just pressure FIFA and say, well he could theoretically, but
what does FIFA do? How long do you think it
takes to put a World Cup venue together? You think
you can do it in a couple of weeks. Do
you go to a party planner, uh, and say, hey,
we've got a city that we want to throw his
(24:27):
big thing and it's a World Cup with various games.
What do you think? Huh? All right, well you start, okay,
how many balloons do we need? And party streamers.
Speaker 1 (24:38):
And we can we can have a soccer game anywhere.
Just look at a park on a Sunday.
Speaker 3 (24:43):
Yeah, it's exactly right, a park on a Sunday. That's
where FIFA is going to have the World Cup. That
is absolutely correct. The point is that, you know, is
there pressure? You know, there's always pressure from a president.
President says something and people really listen, even when the
president has no jurisdiction. You've often heard when the president sneezes,
(25:05):
the world catches a cold.
Speaker 2 (25:07):
So and that too, by extent is true.
Speaker 1 (25:10):
Pardon is going to be out by then, and I
know that the caps on his desk but imply that
another Trump will run. But you think that the US
will would vote for another Trump? Who would it be? Avanka?
Would it be?
Speaker 3 (25:26):
Yeah, they're right, time on vodka. It may be. It
may be Breakfast with Donald as opposed to Breakfast with Bernie's,
or Breakfast and Bernie's, or with Bernie's.
Speaker 1 (25:35):
Or a dead dog.
Speaker 3 (25:36):
Yeah, pretty much. All right. We got an upset producer
here that we've only done nine stories. We have to
keep on going.
Speaker 6 (25:46):
How did that get there?
Speaker 5 (25:47):
A Republican congressman from Ohio has denounced the display of
an American flag that was apparently altered to reveal a
swastika inside his offices in DC. He calls it a
vile deeply in appro for its symbol, and it's being
investigated by US Capitol Police.
Speaker 1 (26:04):
So.
Speaker 5 (26:04):
It was first spotted in a representative Dave Taylor's office
during a virtual meeting October fourteenth. The flag features stripes
that form the Nazi symbol and appeared to be pinned
to a cubicle wall behind one of his staffers.
Speaker 3 (26:22):
Yeah, I think that staffer has some questions that have
to be answered.
Speaker 5 (26:27):
Do you think a staffer is really going to put
a swastika up in an office?
Speaker 3 (26:31):
I don't know. But here's the question. If was there
a meeting at the time, how does someone see it?
Was it seen through a virtual meeting, because that's what
we're talking about.
Speaker 2 (26:40):
So was the staffer there?
Speaker 3 (26:41):
And this flag is behind the staffer.
Speaker 5 (26:43):
Appeared to be pinned to a cubicle wall behind one
of Taylor's staffers.
Speaker 6 (26:49):
According to political.
Speaker 1 (26:51):
I'll tell you, if somebody put a swastika behind me,
I'd pick up on it pretty quickly. Yeah, that's and
I think that's kind of one of those symbols.
Speaker 3 (26:57):
Yeah, and I don't know. I'm not accusing him, if anybody,
I'm accusing the staffer. But my question is was it done?
Was it found out during a virtual meeting? Did people
see behind them?
Speaker 6 (27:08):
Okay, during a virtual meeting?
Speaker 3 (27:10):
Okay, So to uh Neil's point, if you're in the
middle of a virtual meeting, I know it's behind me.
Speaker 1 (27:18):
Get there.
Speaker 3 (27:19):
You know there's that picture of you know, that girl
doing uh well, I don't want to talk about that,
but you know you can see some really bizarre stuff
behind me. Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, like change obviously.
Speaker 2 (27:35):
Okay, let's finish this up real quickly.
Speaker 3 (27:37):
Uh.
Speaker 1 (27:38):
The ed t A SB finds that that submersible, the Titan,
the Titan was a piece of crap, built horribly. Diane
keaton death was pneumonia. Trump says he's gonna bomb of Venezuela.
I think we did pretty good average attacking those Venezuelan
(27:59):
ships and is going, oh my god, that's horrible.
Speaker 2 (28:03):
You know, it's it's an invasion of our sovereignty.
Speaker 3 (28:05):
Damn right.
Speaker 2 (28:06):
You know, you allow those cockroaches out.
Speaker 3 (28:09):
Of Venezuelan ports to bring in drugs the United States,
they should get bombed. I'm perfectly fine with that. Also,
isn't it just fun seeing those ships explode?
Speaker 2 (28:20):
I mean, just the entertainment part of it. Boom, Yeah,
it's a video game, except that's real.
Speaker 3 (28:26):
People's The body parts really do fly all over the place.
Speaker 5 (28:31):
Here's what I'm concerned about, not the body parts. It's
if they're loaded with drugs. All those drugs are just
going into the ocean and then what happens to them.
Speaker 3 (28:40):
I mean, like fish get very very high. Uh you
ever seen a fish high on phetanyl? Man, that is
a joy to see. Yeah, what you see is millions
of dollars of drugs sort of just dissolving on salt water.
Speaker 2 (28:57):
It's just it's nothing there. It just goes away.
Speaker 5 (29:00):
It does go away. Yeah, it doesn't get the it
doesn't kill the fish.
Speaker 3 (29:04):
Well, I would guess the fish right around there it kills.
But you know there aren't that many fish shut near
the surface. Maybe I'm a lot.
Speaker 2 (29:12):
Do I look like a fish guy? Ven Am I
an expert.
Speaker 3 (29:15):
I'll tell you about I'll tell you about smoked salmon
that I can tell you about all day long.
Speaker 1 (29:20):
Smoked salmon is right right.
Speaker 2 (29:24):
Six months now, we'll be going down in some sushi
and being like, oh.
Speaker 3 (29:28):
Hey, now, yeah, can you imagine I'm dying of an
overdose of sushi. Wow, there's a lawsuit. Okay, Kim. You've
been listening to The Bill Handle Show. Catch My Show
Monday through Friday, six am to nine am, and anytime
on demand on the iHeartRadio app.
You're listening to Bill Handle on demand from KFI AM
six forty.
Speaker 2 (00:12):
So there, I am. I get some emails. You left
wing bastard.
Speaker 3 (00:16):
You you're just part of the radical far left, and
you are destroying America.
Speaker 4 (00:21):
Okay, and now Handle on the news, Ladies and gentlemen,
here's Bill Handle.
Speaker 3 (00:31):
By the way, that promo I was describing how I
am perceived as a complete left wing wacko. You know
what's interesting is that I'm getting I don't know if
it's interesting in you, but it's interesting to me. Ever
since I've married, I've been with Lindsay, who is pretty liberal.
I mean, she's part she's out there. Somehow, I've become
much more liberal. I used to be much more conservative.
Speaker 1 (00:55):
Why I will say this, I will say this, I've
known you for over thirty years. You are less reasonable
than normal.
Speaker 3 (01:06):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (01:06):
You wonder why things like I'm scared.
Speaker 3 (01:10):
Yeah, because I am. I think where we're going is
completely insane. I truly believe that that's the problem.
Speaker 1 (01:16):
Says things out loud, but all presidents do have.
Speaker 2 (01:21):
I think he says it's not.
Speaker 3 (01:22):
Just a question that he says things out loud. Right,
how about firing people in the Justice Department in the
FBI who were assigned lawsuits. It's all never happened.
Speaker 1 (01:36):
That never happened before, That never happens public pardon not
as publicly.
Speaker 2 (01:42):
It doesn't believe me.
Speaker 3 (01:43):
People, if someone were fired for doing that in previous administrations,
you don't think that would make a news you know,
they we would cover it anyway. It's just easier, I think,
to be frightened, uh, in this day and anytime.
Speaker 1 (01:55):
You say far left or far right to me, they
both scared me, Like the far anything. You know, polar
you can't live on the north pole and you can't
live at the South pole.
Speaker 3 (02:06):
So either it's okay, all right, Oh that is that resonates.
That's a good point.
Speaker 2 (02:11):
All right, So much for that. I'll tell you.
Speaker 3 (02:14):
Also, what really frightens me genuinely is being on this
show with Neil Savedra and everyone else. Good morning, Neil,
good morning, Will He good morning, and Will you're wearing
the Dodgers cap.
Speaker 2 (02:27):
Yes, good morning, Bill.
Speaker 3 (02:29):
Well there you are. Cono. You're not no, not no,
you're not. Yeah, yeah, Cono wears his uniform. Do we
have pictures of Cono? Do you ever put up pictures
on our Instagram.
Speaker 1 (02:44):
He doesn't photograph. You can't get him on digital regular film.
Speaker 3 (02:49):
I don't know where Anne is.
Speaker 5 (02:51):
She's she's trying to help me because Will didn't do
his job this morning.
Speaker 3 (02:56):
I was about that. I was about to say, and
where is is Amy?
Speaker 2 (03:02):
Yeah?
Speaker 3 (03:04):
I can hear you, Amy, but I can't see you.
Speaker 1 (03:06):
You need to learn how to turn that on yourself.
Speaker 6 (03:09):
I did. But Anne has a trick. Thank you, Anne, it.
Speaker 3 (03:13):
Was Anne has a trick. She presses the on button
and there's.
Speaker 5 (03:18):
A way to do it so that I don't have
to turn the mute on and off like there's just
no sound.
Speaker 3 (03:23):
Right. And there you are with your la. Uh that
looks like a what we used to call a wife
beater T shirt.
Speaker 6 (03:35):
It is not a wife beater.
Speaker 5 (03:36):
It is a tank top okay, with a sporty white
stripe down the back seat.
Speaker 3 (03:43):
Oh yeah, the white, big white stripe down the back.
Speaker 6 (03:46):
Somebody said I looked like Herbie the Lovebug.
Speaker 3 (03:49):
Oh it's not.
Speaker 2 (03:50):
Bad, it's not bad, all right.
Speaker 3 (03:52):
So we got Will and is a Dodger's cap, and
we got there. We have Amy with her crop top.
Speaker 6 (03:59):
Oh trust me, it's not a crop top. Okay, yeah,
I'm not ever going to be spotted in a crop.
Speaker 2 (04:05):
Okay, so what do you call those things?
Speaker 3 (04:08):
Tank top?
Speaker 2 (04:08):
I'm sorry, you're right, the tank top.
Speaker 1 (04:10):
He gets confused because when his wife wears them, they're
called husband beaters.
Speaker 3 (04:15):
Yeah, pretty much, pretty much. All right, guys, we do
we have stuff to talk about today? Is anybody going
to go to the the No Kings Day parade on Saturday?
No King Day?
Speaker 2 (04:31):
I only mention that because guess who is going?
Speaker 1 (04:33):
Who?
Speaker 2 (04:35):
Lindsey really?
Speaker 3 (04:36):
Of course? Yes, yeah, yeah, she's I tell you, she's
pretty liberal.
Speaker 1 (04:41):
She is a nose ring away and a pink hairdoo
away from being a crazy liberal woman on camera going
I'm not going to have sex ever again until Trump
is dead.
Speaker 3 (04:56):
Wow. That's one more that's added to the lists, because
I've got plenty on that list. You I have, Oh,
I have tons that I can go through, the whole
list that I get. Okay, So, oh and Amy, tonight
you go to the game this afternoon? Yep, oh that
(05:16):
sounds exciting.
Speaker 1 (05:17):
Yeah.
Speaker 5 (05:17):
And you know how Will does his little side hustle
where he goes to stadiums and flies over them around
the country for like the NFL and stuff.
Speaker 6 (05:24):
M Well, he's doing it at Dodger Stadium today.
Speaker 5 (05:26):
So if you see a little bit you're flying buzzing around,
You're flying in what.
Speaker 4 (05:30):
A little Cessna plane up above? It's got a camera
mounted on the wing. We do the live arrows shots
for the networks. And yeah, now you do you do
you fly the airplane?
Speaker 1 (05:40):
Oh lord?
Speaker 5 (05:40):
No?
Speaker 3 (05:41):
Okay, so you're not a pilot. So is this a
company that you work for outside of iHeart?
Speaker 1 (05:47):
Yes, yep.
Speaker 2 (05:48):
And it flies around various events yep.
Speaker 4 (05:51):
Usually usually mostly football and golf for the big the
Big two.
Speaker 3 (05:55):
But so what do you do when you're over a
a stadium that has a roof on it? Do you
just comment on the roof and what it looks like
from various angles?
Speaker 4 (06:04):
Well, I don't even talk. I just shoot the video.
And yeah, it's basically a big commercial. We're usually sponsored
by Goodyear or Geico or somebody like that.
Speaker 3 (06:13):
But wait a minute, Goodyear is flying an airplane up there?
Speaker 2 (06:18):
What is that about?
Speaker 1 (06:19):
Sometimes?
Speaker 4 (06:19):
Yes, there's no blimp. Sometimes I just don't get that.
Have you ever been on the good Year glimp?
Speaker 1 (06:25):
I have not.
Speaker 4 (06:25):
No, I've been in a snoopy the met Life blimp
and that was weird. Oh, it's the same thing, basically. Yeah,
it's just it's a blimp.
Speaker 3 (06:31):
And do you know that Richard Branson had a company,
Virgin Zeppelin Company that he actually came out with a
zeppelin that I was lucky enough to fly into.
Speaker 1 (06:45):
Huh, what's the difference.
Speaker 3 (06:47):
Blimps are the whole thing is an air bag oka.
Zeppelins are the structure that have it's not just ribbed,
it's a first place skeleton that has air bags in it,
and so and so they can actually lift I think
a little bit more because they're much much bigger. And
(07:07):
on the zeppelin, the Virgin Zeppelin, there's a bathroom in
the zeppelin at the back. There was a toilet there
and it's sits more people and it's just it's kind
of fun.
Speaker 2 (07:22):
So we did ten stories yesterday.
Speaker 3 (07:24):
Look at Anne. Okay, fair enough, let's go for it.
Thank you Anne for pointing that out. Time for Handle
on the news with a boy that she said that's
smiling too. Handle on the news with Neil Amy and
me lead story.
Speaker 1 (07:39):
Shut it, Shut it.
Speaker 3 (07:42):
Federal Judge. And every time president does something that's a
little untoward or out of the box, in this case,
he talked about the federal layoffs, the mass federal layoffs
during the shutdown. Of course, lawsuits hit, I mean across
the board. Federal judge shut that down, saying to Trump,
(08:02):
you cannot fire people during a shutdown, and so of
course that's gonna go up. And it turns every two minutes.
It seems. I don't even think it seems. It is
that the president does something that has not been done
by previous presidents, and the lawsuits hit, and in some
cases what he does is upheld. In other cases it's no.
(08:24):
And of course everything is appealed that he loses, and
on the other side, everything is appealed when he wins.
Speaker 1 (08:32):
Would that be funny if he just fired the judge.
You're fired?
Speaker 3 (08:35):
That would doubt, radical left wing judge. All right, moving on.
Speaker 5 (08:40):
Well, that's all they got, at least that's what they're saying.
Hamas says it is handed over all of the bodies
that it has the dead Israeli hostages. They delivered two
more yesterday under the ceasefire deal. The group says it
has returned the bodies of the hostages that it has
(09:02):
been able to reach. There were twenty eight nine bodies
have been returned, and now Hamas is saying, hey, we
need time and we need specialized equipment to go and
recover the rest of the remains from the round.
Speaker 3 (09:17):
A little bit different, a little bit different than what
they were saying before the cease fire that they had
all twenty eight they had them all. Well they don't,
and this is out. They're hurting the Israeli public and
Natagna who are not happy about this. And already the
Israelis have cut off fifty percent of the aid coming
(09:39):
into into Gaza, and so we'll see what happens.
Speaker 2 (09:44):
They'd better come up with them really quick.
Speaker 6 (09:46):
The problem is Hamas doesn't care if the aid gets in.
Speaker 3 (09:51):
Actually it does. It is because it does not so
much for political purposes. It cares not so much for
people starving. To doubt, I don't think they care about that.
Speaker 5 (10:01):
Right because they think it makes Israel look bad when
they cut the eight off.
Speaker 3 (10:04):
One cares, and the other one is if everybody starves
in Gaza, there's no one left to govern. And at
some point do you see the Palestinians overthrowing or trying
to overthrow Hamas. Now it is Kamas has all the arms,
it's willing to shoot its own people. You saw what
just happened where they took those eight quote collaborators with Israel.
(10:28):
Anybody who was against Hamas get shot, and they're just
reasserting themselves right there. As soon they're supposed to disarm,
and well they didn't agree to disarming.
Speaker 2 (10:40):
That's one of the problems about the ceasefire plan.
Speaker 3 (10:43):
But they were theoretically supposed to disarm, and the second
Israel leaves, they move right in. It's almost like a
school line. The second someone goes out the door, someone
comes in the door.
Speaker 1 (10:56):
Jonathan Render Connect twenty nine. He's the one charged with
all that destruction of property and everything with the arson
there for the Palisades fire. They keep referring to him
as the Uber driver And do we know whether he
was driving an uber that day? He was that night
(11:16):
he was because they because they keep using it, and
Cono and I were talking like, damn uber is just
getting torn asunder.
Speaker 5 (11:25):
Well, part of their investigation was that he had dropped
off some passengers earlier, and they had talked to those
passengers and they had said he'd seemed very agitated.
Speaker 1 (11:36):
Well, he's got a lot And if you were listening
to Amy earlier. These charges are growing as the previous
allegation of destruction of property by means of fire and
all this stuff. Will you know, maximize his sentence if convicted,
from twenty to forty five years.
Speaker 3 (11:56):
And they're going to Here's the problem with ours and
these charges is they don't come even close to dealing
with what he did. So the only way they can
basically put him away for the rest of his life
is to add as many charges as possible, ask the
(12:17):
court to give consecutive sentences, which I think the court
will do considering the loss of life and the cost
of property. I mean, you know, hundreds of billions of
dollars or at least tens of billions of dollars, and
so you're going to see him get two hundred and
forty six years or something.
Speaker 2 (12:33):
So that's all they can do.
Speaker 6 (12:34):
And they can't charge him for the deaths of the people.
Speaker 3 (12:38):
Yeah, but it's not murder, Well it's it's technically not murder.
I think it's arson and the death of people as
a result of arson.
Speaker 2 (12:50):
It's not the same as it's Can.
Speaker 1 (12:51):
You assume that you're going to light a neighborhood on
fire and people aren't going to die.
Speaker 3 (12:57):
It's it's implied malice in certain cases.
Speaker 2 (13:01):
I don't know if it is with Arson.
Speaker 3 (13:03):
You know, for example, if you take a car and
run it into a group of people, they're the implied malice.
In other words, doesn't matter whether you intended to kill
anybody or not. The question is how could you not
think that? Of course, that goes, and that's why murder
is allowed in that case. I don't know if Arson
is in that category. I don't know enough about it.
(13:23):
I know very little about law as a matter of fact.
Matter of fact, I know almost nothing.
Speaker 1 (13:27):
We've all heard the show.
Speaker 2 (13:29):
Thank you very much.
Speaker 5 (13:30):
Moving on, GeV Gav maybe posturing on this one. So
there's a story in the La Times about how the
governor is weighing whether to close parts of Interstate five
tomorrow and Saturday, which would affect about eighty thousand people
who travel between La and San Diego counties. And they're
(13:53):
saying it's because during two hundred and fiftieth celebration of
the marinere that's happening at Camp Pendleton this weekend and JD.
Vance is going to be there, the Vice President. They're
going to be doing live fire exercises. And you said
that that could put the public in danger, and so
he might close down I five. And then he also
criticized the administration, saying, you haven't talked to us, you
(14:15):
haven't told us what you're doing. The Marines have put
out a statement they said, we've done all the safety testing.
Training events will occur on approved training ranges with established
safety protocols. No public highways or transportation routes will be closed.
Speaker 3 (14:32):
How about the report that says the Marines are targeting
cars that have Biden Harris bumper stickers on.
Speaker 1 (14:39):
Geez, pew pew. I don't know that that would be
the truth. All right, So journalists exit the Pentagon, and
rightly so. In my opinion, news outlets were nearly unanimous
and rejecting the new rules imposed by the Defense Secretary.
Pete Haig Sath. This all has to do with journalists
(15:01):
being kind of hogtide or you know, saying that they
were going to be tossed if they said or did
certain things, which is correct me if I'm wrong, Bill
against the free press.
Speaker 3 (15:17):
But yeah, well that's what they're saying. Well, it's not
so much free press. Sex Seth does not saying that
you can't print it. I mean that is a violation
of First Amendment. Well, what he is saying is you
are not going to get credentialed. You will not be
let into it. Access is as to it is to
me just as bad. There will be a lawsuit and
(15:38):
that that is an argument that's going to be made.
Speaker 2 (15:40):
Absolutely.
Speaker 3 (15:41):
But the point is is what their heg Seth said,
you can just turn in.
Speaker 2 (15:46):
We're not going to let you in turn in your
press credentials.
Speaker 3 (15:48):
If you do not report on information that's either classified
or otherwise that has not been approved by Hegseth for release,
you cannot do that. That's the problem because the rest
of it, By the way, you can't go into the
Pentagon unescorted.
Speaker 2 (16:05):
That's already there. You know, there's no issue.
Speaker 3 (16:10):
You can't if you get classified information, you can't publish
that's already there. The big issue is you can't publish
classified or non classified information about the Pentagon unless I
say it's okay for you to do that. It's been cleared.
And if you don't do that, we're yanking your credentials.
And what they're all doing is they're all lining up
(16:31):
and go hear, my credentials all the major outlets, even
Newsmacks is saying that, So what you're going to have
is a bunch of bloggers.
Speaker 2 (16:38):
That's what you're going to have.
Speaker 3 (16:39):
Left.
Speaker 1 (16:40):
Wow, they're still going to cover it. And let me
tell you something. They are not going to leave one
rock until. No, they won't. I mean, of course they're
going to cover. You're going to do it as at
a distance. You're still going to get the story.
Speaker 3 (16:55):
They are going to cover it, but you're not going
to get the coverage as if they were in the room,
and you won't see the questions being asked at press
conferences the way you have ABC or you have Fox
throwing questions out. Which does I mean Fox may be
really pro administration, which it is.
Speaker 2 (17:13):
The Fox reporter still throw the questions out.
Speaker 6 (17:17):
Okay, not exactly now.
Speaker 5 (17:20):
Departing from Gay III, the public address systems were taken
over at terminals at four airports in North America on Tuesday,
pro Hamas recordings were played throughout the terminals, messages praising
Hamas using expletives.
Speaker 6 (17:40):
I heard a couple of F bombs.
Speaker 5 (17:42):
They also made comments about the Trump administration and Israeli
Prime Minister Benjamin Nett, Yahoo and ended with free, free Palestine,
and it was said like a real announcement, you know,
like the voice you would expect to hear, free free Palestine,
Free free Palestine.
Speaker 1 (17:58):
It was really creepy, and the Trump administration was upset
because they say, hey, we only put propaganda in the
TSA announcement, and.
Speaker 3 (18:10):
They they have no idea. It wasn't a question of
someone grabbing the system, watching out and grabbing a microphone.
It was hackers that came in.
Speaker 5 (18:20):
That's how I understand it is that the hackers came
in and they or somebody got in an unauthorized user
gained access to the PA system at the Harrisburg Airport
and played an unauthorized recorded message.
Speaker 3 (18:34):
Yeah. I find it interesting that they use the word
hackers as opposed to someone just breaking into the room
where they have the microphones and they just do the announcement.
Speaker 1 (18:45):
These systems are on are computerized, you know.
Speaker 3 (18:51):
Yeah, that's true.
Speaker 1 (18:51):
They have the voice, the white computer voice for supporting
Hamas only.
Speaker 3 (18:56):
Yeah all right.
Speaker 1 (18:58):
Uh so my Mike Johnson is hit with a lawsuit
because there's not enough lawsuits getting thrown around back and forth.
So three weeks since Representative elect I don't know at elite.
She won the special election in Arizona, and because of
(19:19):
the shutdown, the Republican leadership says they can't swear her in,
even though they've sworn others in during shit.
Speaker 3 (19:27):
Pup Reid Republicans, they've sworn Republicans in, but not Democrats.
Speaker 1 (19:32):
So this, this is outright just going against the will
of the people. They just go ahead and process this.
Speaker 3 (19:42):
No, because I'll tell you why. Johnson can't do it,
because she is the last vote that turned that gives
the vote that Congress can force the Epstein files away
from the administration.
Speaker 1 (19:55):
Evitable. People want them out. It's got to come out.
But this person is a duly elected individual.
Speaker 2 (20:01):
Now we go back. Now we go back to Mike Johnson.
Speaker 3 (20:04):
Okay, now we go back to Mike Johnson, the ultimate
horror that exists in Congress, who will do the bidding
of the president under any and all circumstances. And I
know for those of you that argue against me and go, oh, Bill,
you're so biased, look at the quotes of Mike Johnson
where he said, on the record, my job is to
(20:26):
further the agenda of this president.
Speaker 2 (20:29):
That's his job.
Speaker 3 (20:30):
Okay.
Speaker 2 (20:31):
I don't buy that.
Speaker 3 (20:32):
For the Speaker of the House, I'd like him to
be in the House and actually represent the people his
constituents as opposed to the president. That's my complaint, not
a horror, but a concubine. Well, if you're going to
be specific, he's got one. He's got one, John, Yeah,
(20:54):
I don't know anyways, Yes, So anyway, she's going to
be and we'll going to happen.
Speaker 1 (20:58):
Those Epstein files are going to them out, and it's
going to they are eventually they are.
Speaker 3 (21:02):
You know what, I think the only thing that's going
to happen to Trump is that Epstein It's going to
show that I've said this before, is going to show
that Trump is a lot closer to Epstein or was than.
Speaker 2 (21:15):
Has been painted. But then so were all the other
people too.
Speaker 3 (21:18):
I just think Epstein is so toxic that any connection
that anybody ever having dinner with Epstein or being in
the same line at a Starbucks with Epstein is going
to get nailed with any connection. That's what I think
is going to happen. All Right, just do one more
and then we'll take a break. Okay.
Speaker 5 (21:38):
Governor Gavin wants an investigation. Governor Newsom calling for a
congressional investigation into Republican groups because of some leaked messages
that exposed anti Semitic, racist comments in a Young Republicans
group chat. The California governor said that calling for gas chambers,
expressing love for Hitler, endorsing rape using racial slurs, this
(22:00):
is not a joke.
Speaker 6 (22:01):
It is not fringe. He says.
Speaker 5 (22:03):
If Congress can investigate universities for failing to stop antisemitism,
it must also investigate politicians' own allies who are openly
celebrating it.
Speaker 3 (22:12):
Yeah, and Van said, Oh, these are just a bunch
of kids, and they were just acting out.
Speaker 1 (22:18):
He referred to it as pearl clutching.
Speaker 3 (22:21):
Yeah, I don't even know what pearl clutching is.
Speaker 1 (22:23):
Oh that's like, oh me, oh my, this is so worrisome. Oh,
like did you see me? Look, I'm clutching my pearl.
Speaker 3 (22:30):
I'm gonna do more about this.
Speaker 2 (22:33):
Have you never heard that I haven't stopped clutching your pearls?
Speaker 1 (22:36):
Yeah?
Speaker 3 (22:36):
I have not. No, I never have.
Speaker 1 (22:39):
Just oh you must have thought it was something else,
not those pearls, the ones on our neck.
Speaker 3 (22:43):
Great, Yeah, what was.
Speaker 2 (22:46):
I gonna say?
Speaker 3 (22:47):
You? You ruin my train of thought. Oh, I'm going
to do this story at seven point thirty, and it's
just these kids having fun. One of the kids having
fun is a state senator, a state senator who was
sixteen nine years old, who happens to be a Republican.
So a lot of these kids, well maybe they're not
so much kids. Well i'll talk more about that, because
(23:08):
you're right. It's a double standard there, It truly is.
And that's the part that it doesn't even matter what
you do, what you say. If you're Republican, you're wrong,
or if you're a Democrat, you're wrong. Nobody crosses the
line anymore. Nobody all right.
Speaker 1 (23:25):
If you don't play the game right, I'm taking my
balls and we're going home. Donald Trump again, even though
I don't think he has legal authority in any way,
shape or form, he said that he'd pressure FIFA to
remove the twenty twenty six World Cup games from a
host city based on the city's politics. The Boston, I guess,
(23:47):
is the third such city to read receive this kind
of threat from Trump also said similar action against we
here in Los Angeles for the twenty twenty eight Olympics.
He says safe issues but ultimately, you know he works politics.
Speaker 3 (24:05):
Of course it's politics, so would them yeah, well he can.
He doesn't have jurisdiction, of course no, But would you
just pressure FIFA and say, well he could theoretically, but
what does FIFA do? How long do you think it
takes to put a World Cup venue together? You think
you can do it in a couple of weeks. Do
you go to a party planner, uh, and say, hey,
we've got a city that we want to throw his
(24:27):
big thing and it's a World Cup with various games.
What do you think? Huh? All right, well you start, okay,
how many balloons do we need? And party streamers.
Speaker 1 (24:38):
And we can we can have a soccer game anywhere.
Just look at a park on a Sunday.
Speaker 3 (24:43):
Yeah, it's exactly right, a park on a Sunday. That's
where FIFA is going to have the World Cup. That
is absolutely correct. The point is that, you know, is
there pressure? You know, there's always pressure from a president.
President says something and people really listen, even when the
president has no jurisdiction. You've often heard when the president sneezes,
(25:05):
the world catches a cold.
Speaker 2 (25:07):
So and that too, by extent is true.
Speaker 1 (25:10):
Pardon is going to be out by then, and I
know that the caps on his desk but imply that
another Trump will run. But you think that the US
will would vote for another Trump? Who would it be? Avanka?
Would it be?
Speaker 3 (25:26):
Yeah, they're right, time on vodka. It may be. It
may be Breakfast with Donald as opposed to Breakfast with Bernie's,
or Breakfast and Bernie's, or with Bernie's.
Speaker 1 (25:35):
Or a dead dog.
Speaker 3 (25:36):
Yeah, pretty much. All right. We got an upset producer
here that we've only done nine stories. We have to
keep on going.
Speaker 6 (25:46):
How did that get there?
Speaker 5 (25:47):
A Republican congressman from Ohio has denounced the display of
an American flag that was apparently altered to reveal a
swastika inside his offices in DC. He calls it a
vile deeply in appro for its symbol, and it's being
investigated by US Capitol Police.
Speaker 1 (26:04):
So.
Speaker 5 (26:04):
It was first spotted in a representative Dave Taylor's office
during a virtual meeting October fourteenth. The flag features stripes
that form the Nazi symbol and appeared to be pinned
to a cubicle wall behind one of his staffers.
Speaker 3 (26:22):
Yeah, I think that staffer has some questions that have
to be answered.
Speaker 5 (26:27):
Do you think a staffer is really going to put
a swastika up in an office?
Speaker 3 (26:31):
I don't know. But here's the question. If was there
a meeting at the time, how does someone see it?
Was it seen through a virtual meeting, because that's what
we're talking about.
Speaker 2 (26:40):
So was the staffer there?
Speaker 3 (26:41):
And this flag is behind the staffer.
Speaker 5 (26:43):
Appeared to be pinned to a cubicle wall behind one
of Taylor's staffers.
Speaker 6 (26:49):
According to political.
Speaker 1 (26:51):
I'll tell you, if somebody put a swastika behind me,
I'd pick up on it pretty quickly. Yeah, that's and
I think that's kind of one of those symbols.
Speaker 3 (26:57):
Yeah, and I don't know. I'm not accusing him, if anybody,
I'm accusing the staffer. But my question is was it done?
Was it found out during a virtual meeting? Did people
see behind them?
Speaker 6 (27:08):
Okay, during a virtual meeting?
Speaker 3 (27:10):
Okay, So to uh Neil's point, if you're in the
middle of a virtual meeting, I know it's behind me.
Speaker 1 (27:18):
Get there.
Speaker 3 (27:19):
You know there's that picture of you know, that girl
doing uh well, I don't want to talk about that,
but you know you can see some really bizarre stuff
behind me. Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, like change obviously.
Speaker 2 (27:35):
Okay, let's finish this up real quickly.
Speaker 3 (27:37):
Uh.
Speaker 1 (27:38):
The ed t A SB finds that that submersible, the Titan,
the Titan was a piece of crap, built horribly. Diane
keaton death was pneumonia. Trump says he's gonna bomb of Venezuela.
I think we did pretty good average attacking those Venezuelan
(27:59):
ships and is going, oh my god, that's horrible.
Speaker 2 (28:03):
You know, it's it's an invasion of our sovereignty.
Speaker 3 (28:05):
Damn right.
Speaker 2 (28:06):
You know, you allow those cockroaches out.
Speaker 3 (28:09):
Of Venezuelan ports to bring in drugs the United States,
they should get bombed. I'm perfectly fine with that. Also,
isn't it just fun seeing those ships explode?
Speaker 2 (28:20):
I mean, just the entertainment part of it. Boom, Yeah,
it's a video game, except that's real.
Speaker 3 (28:26):
People's The body parts really do fly all over the place.
Speaker 5 (28:31):
Here's what I'm concerned about, not the body parts. It's
if they're loaded with drugs. All those drugs are just
going into the ocean and then what happens to them.
Speaker 3 (28:40):
I mean, like fish get very very high. Uh you
ever seen a fish high on phetanyl? Man, that is
a joy to see. Yeah, what you see is millions
of dollars of drugs sort of just dissolving on salt water.
Speaker 2 (28:57):
It's just it's nothing there. It just goes away.
Speaker 5 (29:00):
It does go away. Yeah, it doesn't get the it
doesn't kill the fish.
Speaker 3 (29:04):
Well, I would guess the fish right around there it kills.
But you know there aren't that many fish shut near
the surface. Maybe I'm a lot.
Speaker 2 (29:12):
Do I look like a fish guy? Ven Am I
an expert.
Speaker 3 (29:15):
I'll tell you about I'll tell you about smoked salmon
that I can tell you about all day long.
Speaker 1 (29:20):
Smoked salmon is right right.
Speaker 2 (29:24):
Six months now, we'll be going down in some sushi
and being like, oh.
Speaker 3 (29:28):
Hey, now, yeah, can you imagine I'm dying of an
overdose of sushi. Wow, there's a lawsuit. Okay, Kim. You've
