Speaker 1 (00:00):
You're listening to Bill Handle on demand from KFI AM
six forty.
Speaker 2 (00:12):
Autism in your dog. Now, I don't know what an
autistic dog looks like. Maybe it looks down at the ground,
doesn't bark, doesn't talk. By the way, autism does not
exist in any species other than humans. When you have
a movement that says they're concerned about autism in dogs
and cats, you've just reached crazy to a level that
(00:33):
is almost incomprehensible.
Speaker 1 (00:35):
And now Handle on the news, ladies and gentlemen, here's
Bill Handle.
Speaker 2 (00:54):
Bill Handle here on a Wednesday morning, homday, October twenty nine.
And we started another day another dollar, except we worked
for ihearts with another eighty three cents. And good morning
to the crowd. And good morning, Good morning, Bill, good morning.
(01:16):
And we are moving to eight o'clock hour till tomorrow.
And I'll explain tomorrow. Why are eight o'clock segment all right?
And so we had to find something else, and we
found something else actually was cono and that is a
comet that's approaching Earth won't be hitting Earth, and it
may very well be alien technology, says a professor at Harvard.
(01:42):
So we'll do that today at eight o'clock. All right, Cono,
you came up with the topic. Good morning to you,
all right, and Neil morning for you.
Speaker 3 (01:52):
Do an alien stuff?
Speaker 1 (01:54):
Now, of course we are. I like alien stuff.
Speaker 2 (01:58):
Oh no, alien stuff is all real though, yeah, no,
it is absolutely real.
Speaker 1 (02:03):
I can't see Will is he around? I'm here.
Speaker 3 (02:05):
I just I'm I'm having issues with my zoom thing.
Speaker 2 (02:09):
But I mean, yeah, okay, because today I'm brought today,
I'm broadcasting from home, and we they're well, anyway, we've
talked about that before. And finally there is the lovely
Amy who was it was actually wearing the wrong color
blue this morning, aren't you?
Speaker 4 (02:28):
No, yes, you're saying I should be wearing blue Jays blue.
Speaker 2 (02:33):
Well, let's just say that the what is it fair
to say the wrong color blue one?
Speaker 1 (02:39):
Last night?
Speaker 4 (02:41):
The wrong the wrong blue one? Yeah, the wrong blue.
Speaker 1 (02:45):
That's okay.
Speaker 4 (02:46):
We're all tied up at four and four. It's now
a three game series. We're good to go playing again tonight.
Speaker 2 (02:50):
I'll tell you who is thrilled if they go seven.
We've got a few people here at KFI.
Speaker 1 (02:55):
Who were like beyond sales managers.
Speaker 2 (02:58):
Yeah, the sales manager, oh yeah, and the salespeople are
frothing at the mouth. You walk around the floor and
what you see is salespeople look like they just brush
their teeth with their mouth frothing, and or they have Rayb's.
Speaker 1 (03:15):
It's one of the two. I have absolutely no idea.
Speaker 3 (03:18):
Okay, it could be both. I've met our sales team.
Speaker 1 (03:22):
It could be both.
Speaker 2 (03:23):
So Amy, I defer to you when it comes to
all things Dodgers. Okay, the next games, tell us or
tell me where the next games are going to be played,
assuming it goes to game seven.
Speaker 4 (03:36):
Well, tonight is game five. It's a Dodger stadium, Okay.
And then the action shifts back because there has to
be a game six now because nobody can.
Speaker 1 (03:44):
Take it in five.
Speaker 4 (03:46):
So the next Game six is going to be on
Halloween night in Toronto, and then there's Game seven after
that if needed, hopefully.
Speaker 1 (03:52):
We won't need it, and that will be where in Toronto? Okay.
Speaker 2 (03:56):
So the Dodgers will not be able to win the
World Series at home field.
Speaker 1 (04:02):
Correct. Oh that's a shame. So the only people you will.
Speaker 2 (04:05):
See cheering and screaming and hugging are the guys.
Speaker 1 (04:09):
On the team.
Speaker 4 (04:10):
No, there's Dodger fans who go to Toronto.
Speaker 1 (04:12):
Really Yeah, well, let me ask you.
Speaker 2 (04:15):
If you're a Dodger fan and you stand up and
start screaming in the stands if the Dodgers win, how
much longer do you think you're going to be alive.
Speaker 1 (04:26):
It's not a.
Speaker 4 (04:27):
Problem because it's in Toronto, and the Canadians are really nice.
Speaker 2 (04:30):
Oh yeah, corrt boot they're nice to boot everything. Yes,
that's true. They're not crazy. They're not soccer fans in
Europe where they're completely nuts. You know the Great Oath,
there's that wonderful story, and it's true about that referee
in I think it was Columbia who made.
Speaker 1 (04:48):
The wrong call and the wrong team won. And you
can look this up.
Speaker 2 (04:54):
The fans went onto the field, they rushed the field
and beat him to death.
Speaker 1 (04:59):
No, look it up. Look it up. Referee yep, referee
field overrun.
Speaker 2 (05:08):
Beat to death, and you will see how crazy fans are.
And I'm not certain it was Columbia, but I think
it was South America. And uh, while I'm waiting for
and to.
Speaker 5 (05:20):
Do that, dude, I'm not saying that would happen here
on the field, but maybe in the parking lot.
Speaker 2 (05:26):
That's true. Thing of that on the Dodgers line. Now, Amy,
you still looking.
Speaker 6 (05:31):
No, Okay, Well we're going to take your word on
that one.
Speaker 5 (05:38):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (05:39):
It goes to show you how much influence I have
on this show.
Speaker 1 (05:41):
All right.
Speaker 6 (05:42):
It does mean that the world series will be one
uh not.
Speaker 3 (05:46):
Here out of the US.
Speaker 2 (05:48):
Right, that's the whole point I'm making. Yes, thanks for listening. Okay,
are we ready to do it?
Speaker 3 (05:54):
I'm sorry, mister Colebot you so what exactly?
Speaker 1 (05:57):
All right?
Speaker 2 (05:58):
Time for handle on the news on this Wednesday morning,
October twenty nine, with Neil Savedra Amy wearing unfortunately Dodger
blue and she's wearing the right colors, wrong color. Last night,
there's Will Good morning, Will, Good morning, all right. Lead story. Well,
twenty five states, about half the states, or almost exactly
(06:22):
half the states as a matter of fact, half the
states in the District of Columbia sued the Trump administration
over the suspension of food stamp benefits. The people who
do receive food stamps have been told ain't gonna happen.
And the states are suing, and you know why they're suing.
They're suing this. There is money available. There are emergency
(06:47):
funds available at least through mid November to pay and
the administration saying no. So what this has become is
a political football of gargash when proportions where the Democrats
and the Republicans are just it's apples to oranges. Someone's
(07:08):
got a cave either the Democrats are going to go
ahead and allow the Republicans they're continuing resolution, kicking the
can down the road a few weeks only maybe where
government still runs the way it used to run and
nothing is added. There are some things, but they're fairly minor.
(07:28):
Or the Republicans cave and they go, Okay, we'll negotiate,
will allow food stamps, will allow those programs that we've cut,
because so many social programs have been cut and emergency
funds have been used for programs that the president wants,
for example, border control and other programs. So clearly, clearly
(07:52):
the Democrats of the Republicans may be farther apart than before.
And the problem is people in need food stamps, millions
and millions of them are going to be in real
trouble because the economy is not doing well for those people.
And what's interesting is the states that back up Trump
are the ones that are going to be most affected
(08:13):
with the food stamp issue that I find fascinating. The
states where more people are going to not eat are
the states that are not pushing for this.
Speaker 6 (08:25):
Is there a limit on these things at them for
a couple three years food stamps and stuff like that.
Speaker 2 (08:30):
Well, you can the legislature can vote that into place. Yeah,
but emergency funds that are available legally right now, even
with the shutdown or the government the government can in
fact pass out these food stamps at least for a
few more weeks, and doesn't want to do it because
of the political fight that's going on. I don't think
(08:50):
the Trump administration wants people to starve.
Speaker 1 (08:54):
I think.
Speaker 2 (08:54):
Let me put it this way, No, I don't think so.
I don't think they wake up in the morning. See
let me see how many people going to starve this morning.
But I think that the political differences are so great
that people who have to eat or falling by the wayside.
Speaker 1 (09:09):
That I believe.
Speaker 4 (09:10):
Something else that might be falling to the wayside, or
though we're hoping that it doesn't, is there's some problems
with the ceasefire in Israel, and that is that Israel
is attacking Hamas again. Now Israel says the Prime Minister
says that he ordered strikes in Gaza because of a
(09:32):
breach of the ceasefire agreement, and that was that Hamas
returns some remains of one of the hostages bodies, and
apparently it was part of the remains of a hostages
body that was returned two years ago. So they're saying
that they tried to a.
Speaker 2 (09:49):
Yeah, so that is enough of a breach where the
attacks happen. Again, what I find fascinating about Israel is
as Israel claims. Both sides are claiming that, of course
the violation is the Me and Korean on the other side.
First of all, I think Hamas is lying through its teeth.
Israel I think is lying through its teeth. Have you
(10:12):
noticed or not noticed that Israel, as Israel claims the
attacks on Hamas on its soldiers and violating for example,
the yellow zone or the green zone or the purple zone,
whatever it's called the line.
Speaker 1 (10:27):
I've never seen a video.
Speaker 2 (10:30):
Of an attack by Hamas on Israeli soldiers or Israeli positions,
have you. I've never seen that video, and you would
think they would be releasing those like crazy, proving that
the violations.
Speaker 1 (10:45):
Have occurred, So who the hell do you believe on
this one?
Speaker 2 (10:50):
And in this case returning a body that they say
was Israeli but they kept part of the body, as
Amy reported, that's enough to declare of violation of the
ceasefire and start attacking again. Man, Yeah, who wants to
finish Absolutely, Natanyahu wants to finish its goal in the
(11:12):
hard right in Israel, wants to establish or establish the
position there will be no palace Indian state, It will
not exist.
Speaker 6 (11:22):
All right, all right, Border Patrol, you've got the US
Border Patrol Chief, Gregory Bovino. He's like the face of
Operation Midway Blitz. This is what they call the crackdown
on legal immigration. Well, he's got a report daily now
to a federal judge because there were reports of combative enforcement.
(11:45):
The hearing's part of this ongoing lawsuit brought by local
media organizations that say they're alleging that the federal agents
have violated prior court orders restricting their use of force
with things like you.
Speaker 3 (11:59):
Know, gas in the light.
Speaker 4 (12:02):
Melissa has made a horrible mess. The hurricane, which was
a Category five yesterday when it hit Jamaica, has lessened
in strength some is still a Category three storm and
made a landfall on Cuba. Forecasters call it an extremely
dangerous Category three hurricane. Severe flooding has hit Cuba and
(12:24):
the storm did extensive damage to homes, hospitals, schools, and
whole communities in southwestern Jamaica, but apparently the full extent
of the damage is unclear because it's hard to get
to a lot of the areas. They were expecting up
to three feet of rain and we're expecting mudslides and
landslides and flooding. So we will see in the coming
(12:45):
days how bad it was.
Speaker 6 (12:47):
They're saying that this was the worst storm in Jamaica's
modern history.
Speaker 4 (12:53):
Yeah, that winds came ashore at one hundred and eighty
five miles an hour.
Speaker 3 (12:58):
Well, when you.
Speaker 6 (12:58):
Think of that location, location that's bound to be hit.
To hear the you know, the hardest one in modern
history is a scary, scary thing to say. So, as
we talked about earlier World Series Game four, blue Jays
beat the Dodgers series tied, and now they'll be sending
(13:19):
the defending champion Dodgers to their third loss in fourteen games.
Speaker 3 (13:25):
In the post, Wait, no, what am I reading?
Speaker 1 (13:28):
It might no, I'm back.
Speaker 4 (13:30):
Yeah, it's probably the third loss in fourteen games, but
just their second loss in the World Series.
Speaker 6 (13:34):
Yes, and this is what we said earlier that this
guaranteed rather World Series trophy will be won at Rogers Center,
which is the.
Speaker 3 (13:45):
The big point that comes out of that.
Speaker 1 (13:47):
Yeah, I'm back. Guys.
Speaker 3 (13:50):
Really, we didn't know. We didn't even know you were gone.
Speaker 1 (13:52):
Now here's what thank you. Here's what happened.
Speaker 2 (13:54):
Is you know, between the break, I was making my
morning sandwich and the mustard jar draw and glass is
all over the place. So I have to pick up
the glass because the dogs walk in that area. So
this was not just being late, This.
Speaker 3 (14:11):
Is being stupid clumsy and late.
Speaker 2 (14:15):
Yeah clumsy, Yeah, yeah, clumsy. I mean I just that
dropped and glass and mustard all over the place.
Speaker 1 (14:23):
So anyway, thanks.
Speaker 3 (14:25):
Thanks for bringing this.
Speaker 2 (14:26):
No, no, because you know, usually I'm late because I'm
just late. This one, there's a legitimate excuse.
Speaker 3 (14:31):
Okay, we'll take him under advicement.
Speaker 1 (14:33):
Okay, I mean do that. You know, that's even to
the point where Anne called me.
Speaker 2 (14:37):
I assume you heard the phone going off that was
you called him.
Speaker 5 (14:41):
Yeah, and kind of goes. I can hear it ringing
in the studio. He's actually doesn't have it. Yeah, all right,
all right, what story.
Speaker 2 (14:49):
Are we on?
Speaker 1 (14:49):
By the way, well, we're done with the news.
Speaker 3 (14:52):
Okay, we're done.
Speaker 2 (14:53):
We're done with the news. Let's start our seven o'clock hour.
What story are we on?
Speaker 3 (14:58):
Six?
Speaker 1 (14:58):
Okay?
Speaker 4 (15:00):
Yeah, Apparently forks are for more than food. Flight from
Chicago to Frankfurt, Germany on Luftanza had to make an
emergency landing in Boston. Why because some idiot stabbed two
passengers with a metal fork. The two passengers were seventeen
years old. They were sitting next to each other. One
(15:23):
was stabbed in the left shoulder, the other in the
back of the head. The guy arrested is being charged
with one count of assault with the dangerous weapon with
intent to do bodily harm. He's an Indian national who
listened to this. Had been admitted to the US on
a student visa for a master's program in Biblical studies
(15:44):
a track.
Speaker 1 (15:44):
Why not yeap?
Speaker 2 (15:46):
By the way, the age old phrase forks are friends,
not food.
Speaker 6 (15:53):
That's not it, no, no, But what is he in
first class something? Why does he have a metal fork?
Speaker 2 (15:59):
Well?
Speaker 4 (15:59):
I don't know, because does Lufthansa have metals.
Speaker 2 (16:01):
Yeah they I was on a Lufthansa flight a few
weeks ago.
Speaker 1 (16:05):
It's now metal forks. It's uh.
Speaker 2 (16:09):
I was in business class, okay, so I don't know
if they have a first class. They just have business class.
I was able to upgrade. So I have to buy
more stuff for my business on the credit card.
Speaker 1 (16:21):
Just for the.
Speaker 2 (16:21):
Miles I will buy. I will buy anything for the miles.
I am now looking at two cases of staplers, almost
a palateful.
Speaker 6 (16:34):
All right, Trump administration in the news, what are the
odds moving towards to overrule any state law that may
protect consumers. That's read you and me and our credit
reports for medical debt. If you remember, the Biden administration
put this forward, and this would repeal that previous regulation
(16:57):
that allowed states to implement their own credit at reporting bands.
And like many of them, you had states like New
York Delaware that we're prohibiting the reporting of medical debt
on the consumer's credit report because medical debt could just
be insane and you, you know, one bad medical situation
and you're screwed for life on your credit.
Speaker 2 (17:19):
Yeah, we're moving in the direction that that medical debt
can't even be reported on your credit report unpayment of
or non payment of.
Speaker 3 (17:29):
Medical Why reverse this just because it's Biden.
Speaker 2 (17:34):
Yeah, it's because it's Biden, and because you know, once again,
the position is that you know, how important are people
to this administration when you look at all of the
programs that are being cut over and over again, it's tough.
Speaker 1 (17:48):
It's tough. I mean, it's it's been made pretty.
Speaker 2 (17:51):
Clear that consumers are not look at all, the EPA
consumer compression, the EPA is being completely gutted FEMA but
has been completely gutted.
Speaker 6 (18:01):
This seems extra petty. So is there what money is involved?
What gain does the government have by putting you know,
medical You got me on that one.
Speaker 1 (18:16):
You got me.
Speaker 2 (18:17):
The vast majority of bankruptcies are because of medical debt.
I mean to argue the other side, it costs the
government money because the majority of bankeret because they because
bankruptcy judges are federal judges paid for by the Feds
in federal courtrooms, federal employees. And this just increases or
(18:43):
keeps the number of bankruptcies up at as high as
it possibly can based on medical debt.
Speaker 1 (18:50):
And you have a point, Okay.
Speaker 4 (18:52):
Yeah, So the US has apparently taken out some more
alleged drug traffickers, out three strikes yesterday on four boats
off Mexico's Pacific coast. Fourteen people were killed. The Pentagon
said that it carried out the strikes in international waters.
Speaker 1 (19:11):
Have you seen the video of those boats being blown up?
Speaker 2 (19:16):
And the argument is that the Pentagon Pete Hegseith is
blowing up these boats and there is no evidence that
they are even drug boats at this point, and had
that Hegseith came back with that may be absolutely true.
But this is the neatest, most realistic video game that's
ever been invented.
Speaker 3 (19:36):
The boats go boom.
Speaker 6 (19:40):
They do have tech to be able to tell, even
without being on the boats, whether there is or not.
Speaker 3 (19:46):
It's my understanding there is.
Speaker 1 (19:47):
Why isn't Why isn't that being published?
Speaker 2 (19:50):
Because here is the argument, you guys, there's no proof here,
and here is the proof from them. Here we have
the tech here it is now they can't describe in
detail what the tech is because I'm sure that's classified.
Speaker 1 (20:02):
But you would think, wouldn't you.
Speaker 6 (20:06):
Anyway, this year a horrible story Amy King was talking
about earlier there at the Southern California USC campus. Here
in Los Angeles, a full term infant was found dead
in the student housing apartment complex. And if you know
(20:26):
that area, that's over by McClintock and Avenue near West
thirtieth Street. And the call came in at about one
thirty am on Monday. According to police, they're still investigating it,
but the medical examiner said the baby listed the baby
it's nineteen hours old.
Speaker 3 (20:45):
Wow.
Speaker 2 (20:46):
And the shame of it is if the baby is
born a mother, at least a biological mother, can drop
it off at any police station, absolutely at any fire
department and no questions, no questions asked.
Speaker 4 (21:03):
All money is good money again at Chipotle. Chipotle Mexican
Grill has agreed to pay two hundred and forty six
thousand dollars to settle consumer protection lawsuit. Someone had claimed
that customers in California couldn't use those Chipotle gift cards
if their balance was under ten dollars. So Nathan Hakman,
(21:25):
the district attorney in La County, said gift cards are
real money, purchased with hard earned cash. California laws clear
consumers have the right to redeem gift cards with the
balance under ten dollars, and Chipotle says, okay.
Speaker 2 (21:37):
Yeah, how many times have you used the gift card
and the balance was under ten dollars that was left?
Speaker 1 (21:43):
How much do I have left on this card? Eight bucks?
Speaker 2 (21:45):
Seven dollars A lot I have too, And Chipolte used
to say, you know what, we're going to just keep
that money if it's under ten bucks.
Speaker 1 (21:53):
I mean, this is horrific.
Speaker 2 (21:54):
Maybe they should go back to the e Coli burritos
that they sold on top of this.
Speaker 3 (21:59):
Wowow do you remember that one? You remember that one?
Knock them when they're down?
Speaker 2 (22:05):
Oh yeah, oh yeah. So they're paying not very much money.
I mean, this is a major corporation. I mean they
have I don't know how many stores they have, and
it's one hundred and forty five dollars and eighty eight
and then twelve thousand, so you know, it's basically a
quarter of a million dollars for Chipotle. That's a nothing,
but it says something about corporate greed and corporate philosophy.
Speaker 6 (22:29):
All right, Bill Gates making an interesting claim. Of course,
he's been in the forefront of wanting to bring you know,
zero carbon emissions and putting his money where his mouth
is when it comes to climate change.
Speaker 3 (22:42):
But now he's arguing slightly differently.
Speaker 6 (22:44):
He says the world's philanthropists must increase their investment in
other efforts aimed at preventing disease and hunger. He said,
you know, a lot of the money for climate change
because you know, people get emotional, and once you emotion
enters the arena, money is thrown at it, and we
(23:05):
don't know where the money goes. And he says it's
been misplaced. Too much good money has been put to
expensive and questionable efforts. And so he's got a point.
Speaker 2 (23:16):
I mean, going to zero carbon emissions is the long game.
People starving is the short game. It happens tomorrow or today.
And he says, let's put the money there. But you
know why politicians like the long games. There's no accountability.
Speaker 1 (23:34):
It's true.
Speaker 2 (23:34):
I was just watching Fox by the way, you know,
I watch Fox and CNN and BBC on my monitors
up there, and Fox News is taking this and having
the time of their life, saying, you see, even Bill
Gates admits climate change is not important, none of that,
and then leaves out completely the story of but we
should take the money and feed people that was out
(23:56):
of the story.
Speaker 1 (23:58):
You'll have to.
Speaker 6 (23:58):
See it in its fullness, because this is the way
you run your house, I mean your house the same way.
Speaker 3 (24:04):
What is our immediate needs, whatever long term people have
to that.
Speaker 1 (24:07):
People have to eat. People have to eat.
Speaker 2 (24:11):
And unfortunately, right now, assuming that this gets some legs,
it's going to be a double hit. Climate change won't
be addressed and we're not going.
Speaker 1 (24:20):
To feed people. Now, let him cool.
Speaker 6 (24:23):
I would just like to say, because he tries to
be the good guy all the time. Cono in my
ear just said, except for Neil, he doesn't need to eat.
Speaker 2 (24:30):
They amn right, and he's absolutely right. Let's take a break,
we will come back. That's yeah, Well we'll finish it.
They call that Napoleonic complent. No, no, you know what
they call no, you know what they call that?
Speaker 1 (24:41):
The truth? That's what you call it.
Speaker 3 (24:44):
I'll dare you.
Speaker 4 (24:46):
The US Senate has some rare Republican support for a
Democrat proposition. The Senate passed a measure that would terminate
Trump's tariffs on Brazilian imports that includes coffee, beef, and
other things. It's a rare bipartisan show of opposition to
the trade war. The legislation passed fifty two to forty eight.
(25:09):
Five Republicans join all the Democrats to vote in favor
of it. Well, we got to have our coffee and
we got to have our beef.
Speaker 1 (25:16):
Well, I mean, look at this. Let's look at this
for a moment.
Speaker 2 (25:20):
Whether you agree with Trump's tariffs or not, they are
a legitimate way of dealing with world economics. And Trump's
position is the balance of trade is unfair. We buy
more products than we sell to insert name of country here,
and that hurts us. It is not good for us.
And so when it comes to China, it comes to
(25:42):
other countries, he put throws tariffs on there and says,
let's even the playing field. That's what this is about.
With Brazil, we have a surplus. We sell them more
than they buy. That argument does not hold water. We
make money on Brazil. There is no reason to put
(26:02):
a tariff on Brazil fifty percent. And you know why
I did it, Bolsonnaro. Bolsonnaro is an ally. Bolsonnaro lost
the election. Bolsonaro said it was rigged. Trump agreed it
was rigged. And the current president is not a fan.
This is a personal move on a tariff that's the problem,
(26:22):
and it's it makes no sense. I'm yeah, but only
five Republicans? Only five? What does that show you? Okay,
let's do a couple more.
Speaker 3 (26:33):
Here a horrible story.
Speaker 6 (26:35):
So this lawsuit a grandfather California, grandfather seventy two, they
say was effectively boiled alive with scalding shower water that
came from a hotel shower. Apparently he was going up
north to visit family to watch gymnast his gymnast's granddaughter
(26:56):
graduate from San Jose State University on May twenty second.
He went into the fair Field or the Marriott in
and sweets there in the San Jose Airport, opted for
a shower. But they're saying that the water was was
tempt out at about one hundred and thirty six degrees.
(27:17):
I mean that it shouldn't be more than one hundred
and twenty. It shouldn't be more than that bath water.
Speaker 1 (27:23):
Well you go.
Speaker 3 (27:24):
Into the thing.
Speaker 6 (27:25):
They found him in the tub half filled, So he
must really weird.
Speaker 2 (27:29):
I was want to probably be one of those shower
tubs things where Yeah.
Speaker 6 (27:32):
But I think if you got that hot water from
you gwer, you would get out right, you know.
Speaker 2 (27:38):
But look, look at a hot tub at one hundred
and five degrees. It is so hot you can barely
get in. At one hundred and five degrees. It is hot, hot, hot.
Can you imagine one hundred and thirty six degrees? All right, Well,
one more because this one is fun. This is a
story that's going on which I don't understand.
Speaker 4 (27:58):
Well, he's just trolling everybody. He puts his Trump twenty
twenty eight hats on the resolute desk when he calls
the Democrats in. But the President acknowledged yesterday or actually
it was a couple of days ago, that the Constitution
makes him ineligible for a third term. He said aboard
(28:20):
Air Force one, I would say that if you read it,
it's pretty clear I'm not allowed to run. And then
he went on to say it's too bad.
Speaker 2 (28:28):
Okay, I can see him believing that. I get a
lot of people believe that, even Mike Johnson. Even Mike
Johnson said it's not going to happen. Why because it
takes ten years to pass the constitutional amendment. Let me
tell you on this one. You know how long it's
going to take to pass this amendment? How about never?
Does never work for you? It certainly works for me.
Speaker 6 (28:48):
So okay, what are the options that he's like, Amy said,
trolling or amy? But what about he could it could
be another Trump or he's president.
Speaker 1 (29:00):
He said he didn't want to be vice press. Yeah, yeah,
come on, he's not gonna be vice I'm saying.
Speaker 2 (29:06):
But it if Congress does pass two thirds of Congress
and two thirds of the States does pass a constitutional amendment,
we now have a third term for a president. I
mean we The only reason we got a second term
limitation is because after FDR. FDR was elected four times
and served three terms, three and a start in his
(29:27):
fourth term. He's only in there for a few months.
And so this is so much fun. Now real quick
before we take a break, and that is, there's already
been one motion introduced in Congress by some crazy Republican
it's making that argument, introducing the motion for a third term.
How many Republicans do you think are actually going to
(29:49):
push for a third term and change the and change
the constitution, all bitch, is not going to be a
small number.
Speaker 1 (29:55):
Okay, I absolutely absolutely.
Speaker 3 (29:59):
We'll see we'll see a thing at this point.
Speaker 2 (30:01):
Okay, KF I am sixty. 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):
Autism in your dog. Now, I don't know what an
autistic dog looks like. Maybe it looks down at the ground,
doesn't bark, doesn't talk. By the way, autism does not
exist in any species other than humans. When you have
a movement that says they're concerned about autism in dogs
and cats, you've just reached crazy to a level that
(00:33):
is almost incomprehensible.
Speaker 1 (00:35):
And now Handle on the news, ladies and gentlemen, here's
Bill Handle.
Speaker 2 (00:54):
Bill Handle here on a Wednesday morning, homday, October twenty nine.
And we started another day another dollar, except we worked
for ihearts with another eighty three cents. And good morning
to the crowd. And good morning, Good morning, Bill, good morning.
(01:16):
And we are moving to eight o'clock hour till tomorrow.
And I'll explain tomorrow. Why are eight o'clock segment all right?
And so we had to find something else, and we
found something else actually was cono and that is a
comet that's approaching Earth won't be hitting Earth, and it
may very well be alien technology, says a professor at Harvard.
(01:42):
So we'll do that today at eight o'clock. All right, Cono,
you came up with the topic. Good morning to you,
all right, and Neil morning for you.
Speaker 3 (01:52):
Do an alien stuff?
Speaker 1 (01:54):
Now, of course we are. I like alien stuff.
Speaker 2 (01:58):
Oh no, alien stuff is all real though, yeah, no,
it is absolutely real.
Speaker 1 (02:03):
I can't see Will is he around? I'm here.
Speaker 3 (02:05):
I just I'm I'm having issues with my zoom thing.
Speaker 2 (02:09):
But I mean, yeah, okay, because today I'm brought today,
I'm broadcasting from home, and we they're well, anyway, we've
talked about that before. And finally there is the lovely
Amy who was it was actually wearing the wrong color
blue this morning, aren't you?
Speaker 4 (02:28):
No, yes, you're saying I should be wearing blue Jays blue.
Speaker 2 (02:33):
Well, let's just say that the what is it fair
to say the wrong color blue one?
Speaker 1 (02:39):
Last night?
Speaker 4 (02:41):
The wrong the wrong blue one? Yeah, the wrong blue.
Speaker 1 (02:45):
That's okay.
Speaker 4 (02:46):
We're all tied up at four and four. It's now
a three game series. We're good to go playing again tonight.
Speaker 2 (02:50):
I'll tell you who is thrilled if they go seven.
We've got a few people here at KFI.
Speaker 1 (02:55):
Who were like beyond sales managers.
Speaker 2 (02:58):
Yeah, the sales manager, oh yeah, and the salespeople are
frothing at the mouth. You walk around the floor and
what you see is salespeople look like they just brush
their teeth with their mouth frothing, and or they have Rayb's.
Speaker 1 (03:15):
It's one of the two. I have absolutely no idea.
Speaker 3 (03:18):
Okay, it could be both. I've met our sales team.
Speaker 1 (03:22):
It could be both.
Speaker 2 (03:23):
So Amy, I defer to you when it comes to
all things Dodgers. Okay, the next games, tell us or
tell me where the next games are going to be played,
assuming it goes to game seven.
Speaker 4 (03:36):
Well, tonight is game five. It's a Dodger stadium, Okay.
And then the action shifts back because there has to
be a game six now because nobody can.
Speaker 1 (03:44):
Take it in five.
Speaker 4 (03:46):
So the next Game six is going to be on
Halloween night in Toronto, and then there's Game seven after
that if needed, hopefully.
Speaker 1 (03:52):
We won't need it, and that will be where in Toronto? Okay.
Speaker 2 (03:56):
So the Dodgers will not be able to win the
World Series at home field.
Speaker 1 (04:02):
Correct. Oh that's a shame. So the only people you will.
Speaker 2 (04:05):
See cheering and screaming and hugging are the guys.
Speaker 1 (04:09):
On the team.
Speaker 4 (04:10):
No, there's Dodger fans who go to Toronto.
Speaker 1 (04:12):
Really Yeah, well, let me ask you.
Speaker 2 (04:15):
If you're a Dodger fan and you stand up and
start screaming in the stands if the Dodgers win, how
much longer do you think you're going to be alive.
Speaker 1 (04:26):
It's not a.
Speaker 4 (04:27):
Problem because it's in Toronto, and the Canadians are really nice.
Speaker 2 (04:30):
Oh yeah, corrt boot they're nice to boot everything. Yes,
that's true. They're not crazy. They're not soccer fans in
Europe where they're completely nuts. You know the Great Oath,
there's that wonderful story, and it's true about that referee
in I think it was Columbia who made.
Speaker 1 (04:48):
The wrong call and the wrong team won. And you
can look this up.
Speaker 2 (04:54):
The fans went onto the field, they rushed the field
and beat him to death.
Speaker 1 (04:59):
No, look it up. Look it up. Referee yep, referee
field overrun.
Speaker 2 (05:08):
Beat to death, and you will see how crazy fans are.
And I'm not certain it was Columbia, but I think
it was South America. And uh, while I'm waiting for
and to.
Speaker 5 (05:20):
Do that, dude, I'm not saying that would happen here
on the field, but maybe in the parking lot.
Speaker 2 (05:26):
That's true. Thing of that on the Dodgers line. Now, Amy,
you still looking.
Speaker 6 (05:31):
No, Okay, Well we're going to take your word on
that one.
Speaker 5 (05:38):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (05:39):
It goes to show you how much influence I have
on this show.
Speaker 1 (05:41):
All right.
Speaker 6 (05:42):
It does mean that the world series will be one
uh not.
Speaker 3 (05:46):
Here out of the US.
Speaker 2 (05:48):
Right, that's the whole point I'm making. Yes, thanks for listening. Okay,
are we ready to do it?
Speaker 3 (05:54):
I'm sorry, mister Colebot you so what exactly?
Speaker 1 (05:57):
All right?
Speaker 2 (05:58):
Time for handle on the news on this Wednesday morning,
October twenty nine, with Neil Savedra Amy wearing unfortunately Dodger
blue and she's wearing the right colors, wrong color. Last night,
there's Will Good morning, Will, Good morning, all right. Lead story. Well,
twenty five states, about half the states, or almost exactly
(06:22):
half the states as a matter of fact, half the
states in the District of Columbia sued the Trump administration
over the suspension of food stamp benefits. The people who
do receive food stamps have been told ain't gonna happen.
And the states are suing, and you know why they're suing.
They're suing this. There is money available. There are emergency
(06:47):
funds available at least through mid November to pay and
the administration saying no. So what this has become is
a political football of gargash when proportions where the Democrats
and the Republicans are just it's apples to oranges. Someone's
(07:08):
got a cave either the Democrats are going to go
ahead and allow the Republicans they're continuing resolution, kicking the
can down the road a few weeks only maybe where
government still runs the way it used to run and
nothing is added. There are some things, but they're fairly minor.
(07:28):
Or the Republicans cave and they go, Okay, we'll negotiate,
will allow food stamps, will allow those programs that we've cut,
because so many social programs have been cut and emergency
funds have been used for programs that the president wants,
for example, border control and other programs. So clearly, clearly
(07:52):
the Democrats of the Republicans may be farther apart than before.
And the problem is people in need food stamps, millions
and millions of them are going to be in real
trouble because the economy is not doing well for those people.
And what's interesting is the states that back up Trump
are the ones that are going to be most affected
(08:13):
with the food stamp issue that I find fascinating. The
states where more people are going to not eat are
the states that are not pushing for this.
Speaker 6 (08:25):
Is there a limit on these things at them for
a couple three years food stamps and stuff like that.
Speaker 2 (08:30):
Well, you can the legislature can vote that into place. Yeah,
but emergency funds that are available legally right now, even
with the shutdown or the government the government can in
fact pass out these food stamps at least for a
few more weeks, and doesn't want to do it because
of the political fight that's going on. I don't think
(08:50):
the Trump administration wants people to starve.
Speaker 1 (08:54):
I think.
Speaker 2 (08:54):
Let me put it this way, No, I don't think so.
I don't think they wake up in the morning. See
let me see how many people going to starve this morning.
But I think that the political differences are so great
that people who have to eat or falling by the wayside.
Speaker 1 (09:09):
That I believe.
Speaker 4 (09:10):
Something else that might be falling to the wayside, or
though we're hoping that it doesn't, is there's some problems
with the ceasefire in Israel, and that is that Israel
is attacking Hamas again. Now Israel says the Prime Minister
says that he ordered strikes in Gaza because of a
(09:32):
breach of the ceasefire agreement, and that was that Hamas
returns some remains of one of the hostages bodies, and
apparently it was part of the remains of a hostages
body that was returned two years ago. So they're saying
that they tried to a.
Speaker 2 (09:49):
Yeah, so that is enough of a breach where the
attacks happen. Again, what I find fascinating about Israel is
as Israel claims. Both sides are claiming that, of course
the violation is the Me and Korean on the other side.
First of all, I think Hamas is lying through its teeth.
Israel I think is lying through its teeth. Have you
(10:12):
noticed or not noticed that Israel, as Israel claims the
attacks on Hamas on its soldiers and violating for example,
the yellow zone or the green zone or the purple zone,
whatever it's called the line.
Speaker 1 (10:27):
I've never seen a video.
Speaker 2 (10:30):
Of an attack by Hamas on Israeli soldiers or Israeli positions,
have you. I've never seen that video, and you would
think they would be releasing those like crazy, proving that
the violations.
Speaker 1 (10:45):
Have occurred, So who the hell do you believe on
this one?
Speaker 2 (10:50):
And in this case returning a body that they say
was Israeli but they kept part of the body, as
Amy reported, that's enough to declare of violation of the
ceasefire and start attacking again. Man, Yeah, who wants to
finish Absolutely, Natanyahu wants to finish its goal in the
(11:12):
hard right in Israel, wants to establish or establish the
position there will be no palace Indian state, It will
not exist.
Speaker 6 (11:22):
All right, all right, Border Patrol, you've got the US
Border Patrol Chief, Gregory Bovino. He's like the face of
Operation Midway Blitz. This is what they call the crackdown
on legal immigration. Well, he's got a report daily now
to a federal judge because there were reports of combative enforcement.
(11:45):
The hearing's part of this ongoing lawsuit brought by local
media organizations that say they're alleging that the federal agents
have violated prior court orders restricting their use of force
with things like you.
Speaker 3 (11:59):
Know, gas in the light.
Speaker 4 (12:02):
Melissa has made a horrible mess. The hurricane, which was
a Category five yesterday when it hit Jamaica, has lessened
in strength some is still a Category three storm and
made a landfall on Cuba. Forecasters call it an extremely
dangerous Category three hurricane. Severe flooding has hit Cuba and
(12:24):
the storm did extensive damage to homes, hospitals, schools, and
whole communities in southwestern Jamaica, but apparently the full extent
of the damage is unclear because it's hard to get
to a lot of the areas. They were expecting up
to three feet of rain and we're expecting mudslides and
landslides and flooding. So we will see in the coming
(12:45):
days how bad it was.
Speaker 6 (12:47):
They're saying that this was the worst storm in Jamaica's
modern history.
Speaker 4 (12:53):
Yeah, that winds came ashore at one hundred and eighty
five miles an hour.
Speaker 3 (12:58):
Well, when you.
Speaker 6 (12:58):
Think of that location, location that's bound to be hit.
To hear the you know, the hardest one in modern
history is a scary, scary thing to say. So, as
we talked about earlier World Series Game four, blue Jays
beat the Dodgers series tied, and now they'll be sending
(13:19):
the defending champion Dodgers to their third loss in fourteen games.
Speaker 3 (13:25):
In the post, Wait, no, what am I reading?
Speaker 1 (13:28):
It might no, I'm back.
Speaker 4 (13:30):
Yeah, it's probably the third loss in fourteen games, but
just their second loss in the World Series.
Speaker 6 (13:34):
Yes, and this is what we said earlier that this
guaranteed rather World Series trophy will be won at Rogers Center,
which is the.
Speaker 3 (13:45):
The big point that comes out of that.
Speaker 1 (13:47):
Yeah, I'm back. Guys.
Speaker 3 (13:50):
Really, we didn't know. We didn't even know you were gone.
Speaker 1 (13:52):
Now here's what thank you. Here's what happened.
Speaker 2 (13:54):
Is you know, between the break, I was making my
morning sandwich and the mustard jar draw and glass is
all over the place. So I have to pick up
the glass because the dogs walk in that area. So
this was not just being late, This.
Speaker 3 (14:11):
Is being stupid clumsy and late.
Speaker 2 (14:15):
Yeah clumsy, Yeah, yeah, clumsy. I mean I just that
dropped and glass and mustard all over the place.
Speaker 1 (14:23):
So anyway, thanks.
Speaker 3 (14:25):
Thanks for bringing this.
Speaker 2 (14:26):
No, no, because you know, usually I'm late because I'm
just late. This one, there's a legitimate excuse.
Speaker 3 (14:31):
Okay, we'll take him under advicement.
Speaker 1 (14:33):
Okay, I mean do that. You know, that's even to
the point where Anne called me.
Speaker 2 (14:37):
I assume you heard the phone going off that was
you called him.
Speaker 5 (14:41):
Yeah, and kind of goes. I can hear it ringing
in the studio. He's actually doesn't have it. Yeah, all right,
all right, what story.
Speaker 2 (14:49):
Are we on?
Speaker 1 (14:49):
By the way, well, we're done with the news.
Speaker 3 (14:52):
Okay, we're done.
Speaker 2 (14:53):
We're done with the news. Let's start our seven o'clock hour.
What story are we on?
Speaker 3 (14:58):
Six?
Speaker 1 (14:58):
Okay?
Speaker 4 (15:00):
Yeah, Apparently forks are for more than food. Flight from
Chicago to Frankfurt, Germany on Luftanza had to make an
emergency landing in Boston. Why because some idiot stabbed two
passengers with a metal fork. The two passengers were seventeen
years old. They were sitting next to each other. One
(15:23):
was stabbed in the left shoulder, the other in the
back of the head. The guy arrested is being charged
with one count of assault with the dangerous weapon with
intent to do bodily harm. He's an Indian national who
listened to this. Had been admitted to the US on
a student visa for a master's program in Biblical studies
(15:44):
a track.
Speaker 1 (15:44):
Why not yeap?
Speaker 2 (15:46):
By the way, the age old phrase forks are friends,
not food.
Speaker 6 (15:53):
That's not it, no, no, But what is he in
first class something? Why does he have a metal fork?
Speaker 2 (15:59):
Well?
Speaker 4 (15:59):
I don't know, because does Lufthansa have metals.
Speaker 2 (16:01):
Yeah they I was on a Lufthansa flight a few
weeks ago.
Speaker 1 (16:05):
It's now metal forks. It's uh.
Speaker 2 (16:09):
I was in business class, okay, so I don't know
if they have a first class. They just have business class.
I was able to upgrade. So I have to buy
more stuff for my business on the credit card.
Speaker 1 (16:21):
Just for the.
Speaker 2 (16:21):
Miles I will buy. I will buy anything for the miles.
I am now looking at two cases of staplers, almost
a palateful.
Speaker 6 (16:34):
All right, Trump administration in the news, what are the
odds moving towards to overrule any state law that may
protect consumers. That's read you and me and our credit
reports for medical debt. If you remember, the Biden administration
put this forward, and this would repeal that previous regulation
(16:57):
that allowed states to implement their own credit at reporting bands.
And like many of them, you had states like New
York Delaware that we're prohibiting the reporting of medical debt
on the consumer's credit report because medical debt could just
be insane and you, you know, one bad medical situation
and you're screwed for life on your credit.
Speaker 2 (17:19):
Yeah, we're moving in the direction that that medical debt
can't even be reported on your credit report unpayment of
or non payment of.
Speaker 3 (17:29):
Medical Why reverse this just because it's Biden.
Speaker 2 (17:34):
Yeah, it's because it's Biden, and because you know, once again,
the position is that you know, how important are people
to this administration when you look at all of the
programs that are being cut over and over again, it's tough.
Speaker 1 (17:48):
It's tough. I mean, it's it's been made pretty.
Speaker 2 (17:51):
Clear that consumers are not look at all, the EPA
consumer compression, the EPA is being completely gutted FEMA but
has been completely gutted.
Speaker 6 (18:01):
This seems extra petty. So is there what money is involved?
What gain does the government have by putting you know,
medical You got me on that one.
Speaker 1 (18:16):
You got me.
Speaker 2 (18:17):
The vast majority of bankruptcies are because of medical debt.
I mean to argue the other side, it costs the
government money because the majority of bankeret because they because
bankruptcy judges are federal judges paid for by the Feds
in federal courtrooms, federal employees. And this just increases or
(18:43):
keeps the number of bankruptcies up at as high as
it possibly can based on medical debt.
Speaker 1 (18:50):
And you have a point, Okay.
Speaker 4 (18:52):
Yeah, So the US has apparently taken out some more
alleged drug traffickers, out three strikes yesterday on four boats
off Mexico's Pacific coast. Fourteen people were killed. The Pentagon
said that it carried out the strikes in international waters.
Speaker 1 (19:11):
Have you seen the video of those boats being blown up?
Speaker 2 (19:16):
And the argument is that the Pentagon Pete Hegseith is
blowing up these boats and there is no evidence that
they are even drug boats at this point, and had
that Hegseith came back with that may be absolutely true.
But this is the neatest, most realistic video game that's
ever been invented.
Speaker 3 (19:36):
The boats go boom.
Speaker 6 (19:40):
They do have tech to be able to tell, even
without being on the boats, whether there is or not.
Speaker 3 (19:46):
It's my understanding there is.
Speaker 1 (19:47):
Why isn't Why isn't that being published?
Speaker 2 (19:50):
Because here is the argument, you guys, there's no proof here,
and here is the proof from them. Here we have
the tech here it is now they can't describe in
detail what the tech is because I'm sure that's classified.
Speaker 1 (20:02):
But you would think, wouldn't you.
Speaker 6 (20:06):
Anyway, this year a horrible story Amy King was talking
about earlier there at the Southern California USC campus. Here
in Los Angeles, a full term infant was found dead
in the student housing apartment complex. And if you know
(20:26):
that area, that's over by McClintock and Avenue near West
thirtieth Street. And the call came in at about one
thirty am on Monday. According to police, they're still investigating it,
but the medical examiner said the baby listed the baby
it's nineteen hours old.
Speaker 3 (20:45):
Wow.
Speaker 2 (20:46):
And the shame of it is if the baby is
born a mother, at least a biological mother, can drop
it off at any police station, absolutely at any fire
department and no questions, no questions asked.
Speaker 4 (21:03):
All money is good money again at Chipotle. Chipotle Mexican
Grill has agreed to pay two hundred and forty six
thousand dollars to settle consumer protection lawsuit. Someone had claimed
that customers in California couldn't use those Chipotle gift cards
if their balance was under ten dollars. So Nathan Hakman,
(21:25):
the district attorney in La County, said gift cards are
real money, purchased with hard earned cash. California laws clear
consumers have the right to redeem gift cards with the
balance under ten dollars, and Chipotle says, okay.
Speaker 2 (21:37):
Yeah, how many times have you used the gift card
and the balance was under ten dollars that was left?
Speaker 1 (21:43):
How much do I have left on this card? Eight bucks?
Speaker 2 (21:45):
Seven dollars A lot I have too, And Chipolte used
to say, you know what, we're going to just keep
that money if it's under ten bucks.
Speaker 1 (21:53):
I mean, this is horrific.
Speaker 2 (21:54):
Maybe they should go back to the e Coli burritos
that they sold on top of this.
Speaker 3 (21:59):
Wowow do you remember that one? You remember that one?
Knock them when they're down?
Speaker 2 (22:05):
Oh yeah, oh yeah. So they're paying not very much money.
I mean, this is a major corporation. I mean they
have I don't know how many stores they have, and
it's one hundred and forty five dollars and eighty eight
and then twelve thousand, so you know, it's basically a
quarter of a million dollars for Chipotle. That's a nothing,
but it says something about corporate greed and corporate philosophy.
Speaker 6 (22:29):
All right, Bill Gates making an interesting claim. Of course,
he's been in the forefront of wanting to bring you know,
zero carbon emissions and putting his money where his mouth
is when it comes to climate change.
Speaker 3 (22:42):
But now he's arguing slightly differently.
Speaker 6 (22:44):
He says the world's philanthropists must increase their investment in
other efforts aimed at preventing disease and hunger. He said,
you know, a lot of the money for climate change
because you know, people get emotional, and once you emotion
enters the arena, money is thrown at it, and we
(23:05):
don't know where the money goes. And he says it's
been misplaced. Too much good money has been put to
expensive and questionable efforts. And so he's got a point.
Speaker 2 (23:16):
I mean, going to zero carbon emissions is the long game.
People starving is the short game. It happens tomorrow or today.
And he says, let's put the money there. But you
know why politicians like the long games. There's no accountability.
Speaker 1 (23:34):
It's true.
Speaker 2 (23:34):
I was just watching Fox by the way, you know,
I watch Fox and CNN and BBC on my monitors
up there, and Fox News is taking this and having
the time of their life, saying, you see, even Bill
Gates admits climate change is not important, none of that,
and then leaves out completely the story of but we
should take the money and feed people that was out
(23:56):
of the story.
Speaker 1 (23:58):
You'll have to.
Speaker 6 (23:58):
See it in its fullness, because this is the way
you run your house, I mean your house the same way.
Speaker 3 (24:04):
What is our immediate needs, whatever long term people have
to that.
Speaker 1 (24:07):
People have to eat. People have to eat.
Speaker 2 (24:11):
And unfortunately, right now, assuming that this gets some legs,
it's going to be a double hit. Climate change won't
be addressed and we're not going.
Speaker 1 (24:20):
To feed people. Now, let him cool.
Speaker 6 (24:23):
I would just like to say, because he tries to
be the good guy all the time. Cono in my
ear just said, except for Neil, he doesn't need to eat.
Speaker 2 (24:30):
They amn right, and he's absolutely right. Let's take a break,
we will come back. That's yeah, Well we'll finish it.
They call that Napoleonic complent. No, no, you know what
they call no, you know what they call that?
Speaker 1 (24:41):
The truth? That's what you call it.
Speaker 3 (24:44):
I'll dare you.
Speaker 4 (24:46):
The US Senate has some rare Republican support for a
Democrat proposition. The Senate passed a measure that would terminate
Trump's tariffs on Brazilian imports that includes coffee, beef, and
other things. It's a rare bipartisan show of opposition to
the trade war. The legislation passed fifty two to forty eight.
(25:09):
Five Republicans join all the Democrats to vote in favor
of it. Well, we got to have our coffee and
we got to have our beef.
Speaker 1 (25:16):
Well, I mean, look at this. Let's look at this
for a moment.
Speaker 2 (25:20):
Whether you agree with Trump's tariffs or not, they are
a legitimate way of dealing with world economics. And Trump's
position is the balance of trade is unfair. We buy
more products than we sell to insert name of country here,
and that hurts us. It is not good for us.
And so when it comes to China, it comes to
(25:42):
other countries, he put throws tariffs on there and says,
let's even the playing field. That's what this is about.
With Brazil, we have a surplus. We sell them more
than they buy. That argument does not hold water. We
make money on Brazil. There is no reason to put
(26:02):
a tariff on Brazil fifty percent. And you know why
I did it, Bolsonnaro. Bolsonnaro is an ally. Bolsonnaro lost
the election. Bolsonaro said it was rigged. Trump agreed it
was rigged. And the current president is not a fan.
This is a personal move on a tariff that's the problem,
(26:22):
and it's it makes no sense. I'm yeah, but only
five Republicans? Only five? What does that show you? Okay,
let's do a couple more.
Speaker 3 (26:33):
Here a horrible story.
Speaker 6 (26:35):
So this lawsuit a grandfather California, grandfather seventy two, they
say was effectively boiled alive with scalding shower water that
came from a hotel shower. Apparently he was going up
north to visit family to watch gymnast his gymnast's granddaughter
(26:56):
graduate from San Jose State University on May twenty second.
He went into the fair Field or the Marriott in
and sweets there in the San Jose Airport, opted for
a shower. But they're saying that the water was was
tempt out at about one hundred and thirty six degrees.
(27:17):
I mean that it shouldn't be more than one hundred
and twenty. It shouldn't be more than that bath water.
Speaker 1 (27:23):
Well you go.
Speaker 3 (27:24):
Into the thing.
Speaker 6 (27:25):
They found him in the tub half filled, So he
must really weird.
Speaker 2 (27:29):
I was want to probably be one of those shower
tubs things where Yeah.
Speaker 6 (27:32):
But I think if you got that hot water from
you gwer, you would get out right, you know.
Speaker 2 (27:38):
But look, look at a hot tub at one hundred
and five degrees. It is so hot you can barely
get in. At one hundred and five degrees. It is hot, hot, hot.
Can you imagine one hundred and thirty six degrees? All right, Well,
one more because this one is fun. This is a
story that's going on which I don't understand.
Speaker 4 (27:58):
Well, he's just trolling everybody. He puts his Trump twenty
twenty eight hats on the resolute desk when he calls
the Democrats in. But the President acknowledged yesterday or actually
it was a couple of days ago, that the Constitution
makes him ineligible for a third term. He said aboard
(28:20):
Air Force one, I would say that if you read it,
it's pretty clear I'm not allowed to run. And then
he went on to say it's too bad.
Speaker 2 (28:28):
Okay, I can see him believing that. I get a
lot of people believe that, even Mike Johnson. Even Mike
Johnson said it's not going to happen. Why because it
takes ten years to pass the constitutional amendment. Let me
tell you on this one. You know how long it's
going to take to pass this amendment? How about never?
Does never work for you? It certainly works for me.
Speaker 6 (28:48):
So okay, what are the options that he's like, Amy said,
trolling or amy? But what about he could it could
be another Trump or he's president.
Speaker 1 (29:00):
He said he didn't want to be vice press. Yeah, yeah,
come on, he's not gonna be vice I'm saying.
Speaker 2 (29:06):
But it if Congress does pass two thirds of Congress
and two thirds of the States does pass a constitutional amendment,
we now have a third term for a president. I
mean we The only reason we got a second term
limitation is because after FDR. FDR was elected four times
and served three terms, three and a start in his
(29:27):
fourth term. He's only in there for a few months.
And so this is so much fun. Now real quick
before we take a break, and that is, there's already
been one motion introduced in Congress by some crazy Republican
it's making that argument, introducing the motion for a third term.
How many Republicans do you think are actually going to
(29:49):
push for a third term and change the and change
the constitution, all bitch, is not going to be a
small number.
Speaker 1 (29:55):
Okay, I absolutely absolutely.
Speaker 3 (29:59):
We'll see we'll see a thing at this point.
Speaker 2 (30:01):
