Speaker 1 (00:07):
Hello, everybody, it's my privilege to introduce to you all
the way from the South Side of Chicago, the Man,
the Myth, the Legend, my deal, your brother, the south
Side Unicorn.

Speaker 2 (00:27):
And what did the post Romney wants to lect it?
He said in the first hundred days, he's gonna let
the big banks once again write their own rules, unchained water.
They're gonna put y'all back in change.

Speaker 3 (00:56):
Hey, it's a boy, King White host of the south
Side Unicorn Show. And we have had a cavalcade of
guests on the show lately, and I'm sure you know why.
Because politics is on fire. Baby, everybody is throwing their
hats in the ring. President Donald J. Trump. He's a
firebrand and he started something. He's fired people up inside
their hearts and they're like, I can do that. I

(01:18):
know I can contribute to making America great again. I
know I have something to offer that's gonna make everything
the way it used to be. So with that, we
have a whole lot of people coming on board and
the south Side Unicorn Show and yours truly, we're absolutely
honored for each and every guest that comes on to
the show that we can introduce to you because, let's

(01:41):
face it, a lot of these names and faces. If
you're not a political beast, if you don't digest politics
every day, you're probably not gonna know all of these
names and all of these people. So they need to
be introduced to you because they're really busy out there
campaigning and doing the things they gotta do. That way,
but it's how can I put it in? You guys

(02:02):
know how I say it? It's little sound bites. Well,
on the South Side Unicorn Show, we don't do sound bites.
We sit down, we chill. We have a chat with
these people, a real conversation so that you can get
a feel of exactly who you're dealing with. Well, today,
and I would say my brother, my homie, my friend.

(02:22):
But even though that's true, I can't say that today.
I got to give him the honor and respect that's
due him. He is a vice president of a major corporation.
He has its own radio talk show called America Matters
on the famed Salem radio station The Answer. He's now
throwing his hat into the ring as a gubernatorial candidate

(02:45):
for the state of California. So even though all those
other accolades are true, without any further ado, allow me
to introduce you to mister Leo Zaki, a candidate for
the State of California gubernatorial race. Welcome to the show.

Speaker 4 (03:01):
Thanks Ken, I appreciate that. And you're my homie, you
are my brother, you are my friends, so that's all true.
I'm honored to be here, and yeah, I'm in the race.
I've been fighting this fight here in California for a
few years now, and it's a bit of a challenge
because I am a political outsider. I'm a California and

(03:23):
a fourth generation California to dagg business background. Been in
a part of a lobbying organization as a board member
for a decade, so I've been around this stuff for
a while, but actually getting involved to actually run for
governor something I decided to do after the twenty twenty
election that we witnessed, the most fraudulent one ever. And
I've been just plowing my way into this whole picture.

Speaker 3 (03:45):
And you're pushing with the elbows and all of that,
and as with most political candidates, you have a wealth
of information that's inside of you and you're just you're
ready to get it out there. But we got some time.
Can I have you for an entire show. Is that possible?

Speaker 4 (04:00):
The kidding me anything for you by oh.

Speaker 3 (04:02):
Thank you so much. So they watch this, I'm gonna
lean back. I'm gonna relax for a minute. Ladies and gentlemen,
you do the same thing. Go get your favorite beverage,
whether it's Sodi, pop water, what have you. A kickback
for a while. We got you. We're about to have
a chat with my friend Leo Zaki, a gubernatorial candidate
for the state of California. Let's start. Let's start from

(04:23):
the beginning. You know how, my man what is his name?
Don't say anything. Drake started from the bottom. Now yeah,
now we're here, started from the bottom, right, So you
come from the famed Leo Zaki Farms family, a dynasty.
That's your family, right, yeah.

Speaker 4 (04:42):
Zaki Farms, my great grandfather started in nineteen twenty eight
here in Los Angeles.

Speaker 3 (04:47):
Wow, So let's kick the ballistics this way. Let's just
keep it real when people hear that that you come
from a virtual corporate dynasty. And if I'm not mistaken,
Zaki Farms is a was in business for over ninety years.
Do I have that right?

Speaker 4 (05:03):
Yeah, we were in business for ninety years. But Unfortunately,
California's regulatory process and unfair business practices, arbitrary rules minim
wage price hikes, so many things compounded that forced us
to have to shut down our doors and we were
no longer able to operate here in California as a
vertically integrated family owned business.

Speaker 3 (05:24):
So after and you know, I had my exposure to business,
and I could have googled it, but I said, I'm
gonna see my brother on the show, and I'm going
to keep it organic. I'm going to keep it naturally.
I want to ask you what is vertically integrated mean.

Speaker 4 (05:39):
Oh well, vertically integrated means that you do everything in
house with you know, a handful of exceptions. So the
only things that we really bought would have been fuel,
raw material like to make feed like corn and soy,
and packaging material. Did everything in house. So we we hatched,

(06:01):
We laid hatched, raised, process, packaged, and ship chicken and
turkey with our own fleet of trucks and our own
feed mials.

Speaker 3 (06:08):
So in short, your family didn't need nobody. You had this.
It was on lock pretty much. You had it a lot.
If I'm not mistaken. You were also on the board
of the Chicken Federated. I mean like the board that government.

Speaker 4 (06:23):
Yeah, the California Poultry Federation, which is a lobbying organization
that helps protect the poultry industry in California from well
obviously or legislation that is trying to get pushed through that.
They work hard to work with the legislators to help that.
But unfortunately, the people that were dealing with in Sacramento

(06:44):
and even in Washington, d C. Whether it's congressmen or
senators or the USDA, the FDA of the EPA, they
really don't care about you or your business or your family,
but they sure love being wined and dined. And I
learned this firsthand, and it's it's pretty disgusting how our
politics works here in this country.

Speaker 3 (07:02):
So here they come knocking at your door because you know,
you got deep pockets. And I learned that game myself
because I own a small business. But those who mentored me,
they taught me the concept of the deep pockets, you know,
So you're right, I guess, you know, if they want
the mother's milk, which is campaign money endorsements, they were
knocking on your door. But I bet that had to

(07:23):
be a strange feeling where here they are asking for
your heart earned money from your family owned business, yet
they're driving a knife in your back.

Speaker 4 (07:31):
Yeah. I mean when you sit down with folks trying
to have them understand like simple concepts of agriculture. Like
we had this one issue where they wanted to ban
a piece of equipment that we used in our processing
where you know, it's basically when you take the birds
off the trucks to go and be processed, you hang
them on these things called shackles. Well shackles, you know,

(07:51):
apparently has like a slavery undertone to it, so they
were gonna do away with it. So we're literally sitting
there and like, hey, like, you guys need a locked
It's like, well, you know, we already made a deal
with the other side on this, so we're going to
vote with them on this. And you know, that's just
how it works, because when we need them to vote
with us on things, they're going to vote with us.
It's how it works. And I had to literally sit
there and explain to them that this is such an

(08:12):
important piece of equipment that it won't allow us to
process at the rates that we need to actually keep
up with the demand, and that the only other options
for processing birds would to be either gas them or
drowned them. So when I gave them that understanding the explanation,
they changed their tune. But I mean, it's just like
simple things like that that they'll go to war and

(08:34):
want to do away with it.

Speaker 3 (08:35):
And let me ask you a question, would that have
really been a social issue that they were trying to
take this equipment away for? Did they say something like
it causes poison in the birds or or the shackles,
you know, have an EA problem? What was the reasoning?

Speaker 4 (08:53):
Just what was the reasoning? It was just a I
guess a leveraging piece tactic for some some other piece
of legislature that maybe they were discussing in the house.
I couldn't I couldn't say for sure, but I mean,
so they just brought up it was brought up by
Democrats too.

Speaker 3 (09:12):
So ladies and gentlemen, let's let's get this out there,
because we're gonna go step by step with my brother Leo.
We got the time, we're gonna take the time. So
let us just put this out there from the onset.
If someone said that the Great Zakie Farm Empire went
out of business for mismanagement. No, you don't stay in
business ninety years and not know what you're doing. If

(09:33):
someone said that it was just part of their their
cycle that Zaki Farmers had to go out the way,
excuse me. You don't end up on the border the
Federated making policy and not know what the hell you're doing.
So their goes soon eliminate the impossible, and no matter
how improbable, whatever remains is the truth. So Leo, please

(09:55):
tell the people why the great Zaki farm Empire faded away.

Speaker 4 (10:00):
Well, it had to do with being completely owned and
vertically integrated in California and operating exclusively in California. So
other people say, well, aren't there other poultry companies in California. Well,
yes there are. But here's the thing. They don't exclusively
produce in California. Everything that they do, they don't. They're
not owned entirely by a family privately. There's companies that

(10:23):
are supported by religious institutions like the Mormon Temple. There
are others that are publicly traded, and then there are
those that do other types of production in states like
Louisiana where the minimum wage is far less, so their
operational costs in California are offset by those So to
be a California exclusive brand, to be vertically integrated in

(10:44):
California is what we always did, and we were able
to be successful because of the way that California's legislature
and the business playing field was established. But when it
became woke and progressive and anti business, will that change.
Our fixed costs were directly inhibited by California's arbitrary rules.

(11:06):
I mean, CARB is one small example. We had a
fleet of trucks. We had over seventy trucks, and when
the CARB initiatives got pushed about, you know, our truck
idling and having to have all these special equipment and
in the regular testing and they have to meet these
emission standards, all these crazy things, it made more sense
for us to do away with our fleet of trucks
and go to a leasing company and have another third

(11:28):
party handle our trucking and not do it in house.

Speaker 3 (11:32):
And now and it's more overhead that you got to
carry because you couldn't do it in house.

Speaker 4 (11:36):
Right, and if we did it in house, there's all
these cost savings that come from it. And then okay,
twenty sixteen, the minimum wage in California goes from ten
dollars to fifteen. That's a fifty percent increase in a
minimum wage. And when I'm competing with folks that produce
in places like Georgia or Louisiana, for example, where it's
seven to seventy five an hour minimum wage, they're now

(11:59):
out there now out producing me on a on a
labor cost factor by half. And then I have arbitrary
rules here in California that live in how much how
much space I can have for my birds. All the
birds need to have more rooms. So when they double
the requirements for each bird, so you take the existing

(12:20):
operating uh you know capacity that I have, and you
cut it in half. So now I have to then
go out and buy more land, build more ranches. And
it's it's very cost prohibitive, and it takes. And it's
not just like a switch you turn it on, you
turn it off. It doesn't just work that way. There's
a lot.

Speaker 3 (12:36):
So it was part of the legislation that your family
had to make sure they turned down the bed on
each chicken before they went to sleep. At nineteen you
know what I mean, This is this is crazy, man.
So you know I had the honor a privilege of
preparing some meals with some Zachi Farms chicken. It was delicious,
it was good, it was fresh, it was it was

(12:56):
well packaged and big portions too. I don't know what
was going on with them chickens, but they were pretty
big and they were nice. So this, I mean, we're
going to move on to other stuff.

Speaker 4 (13:08):
Well, we would just just say, you know, like it was,
we have portions that you know, we have a special
parameter that we want, Like we bring our birds in
at four point eight pounds when they're alive, so the
finishment is about three and a half. That's that's the
target you want. That way, the breastmeat comes between eight
to ten ounces, that's what that's what.

Speaker 3 (13:24):
The making hunger.

Speaker 4 (13:26):
That's just that's how it works. And by the way,
we pioneered antibiotic free uh here with Zachi Farms. And
when we shut our doors in January of twenty nineteen,
we were the nation's largest organic turkey producer and we
were responsible for fifty percent of Trader Joe's ground turkey
the whole time. Right, Yeah, So with not a small operation.
At one point, at our peak, we had four thousand

(13:48):
employees uh, and in like two thousand, we were like
the company was valued over a little over half a
billion dollars in two thousand dollars.

Speaker 3 (13:58):
Yeah, so watch this. This is this is you know,
and we're going to go into other segments ladies and gentlemen.
But again, this is how we're doing it. I don't
get to see my friend very often, and when I
learned that he was running for government, I'm like, oh,
we got to do this, you know, we got to
have this conversation. But four thousand employees, you are a

(14:19):
golden child of the state of California, you are a
native son. Why did they treat you so hostile? Were
they aware of the impact they were causing on your business?

Speaker 4 (14:30):
They don't think about It's not even about me, it's
about all the people that lost their jobs. They pass
these laws, they pass these regulations, and they do it
all in the name of you know, climate justice or
social justice or equity or whatever, and they don't fully
think it through it. I mean, sure it might sound nice,

(14:51):
but they don't understand how it actually impacts businesses and people.
When you dictate to the whole state that you have
to raise your minimum wage because well, you know, things
are so expensive, people aren't making enough money. It doesn't
it doesn't correlate that they have more money in their
pocket because labor is forty percent of your fixed cost
and any business as you're overhead. So when you literally

(15:13):
increase it by fifty percent, the company doesn't really have
the ability to flex you know, to flexible.

Speaker 3 (15:18):
There's no there's no leeway for that. And ladies and gentlemen,
if it don't make money, it don't make sense. Yeah
at the bottom, if it don't make money, it don't
make sense. The owner has to make money. The employees
have to make some money too. But now these employees,
they went from making some money to having no money, right,

(15:38):
But that's we're bad. But watch this, I don't see
you gotta want the information in you. But here comes
the trick, Leo, and you know this one. We got
to pay some bills up in this house, so we
got to get ready for a station break. But when
we come back, we're going to go into immigration and
Leo Zaki's opinion and policies regarding immigration good and bad

(15:59):
in the state of cause California and the United States
can't wait to hear what he's got to say about that.
Ladies and gentlemen, we'll be right back after these messages,
go know where.

Speaker 5 (16:13):
Step why train the people only to consume Step two.
Infiltrate adults with the nose. Step three, and doctor Nathan
children through the schools and the music and the apps
on the phones that they use.

Speaker 3 (16:23):
Step four.

Speaker 5 (16:24):
Separate the right from the left. Step five, separate the
white from the black. Step six, separate the rich from
the poor. Use religion and the quality to separate a more.

Speaker 3 (16:33):
Step seven.

Speaker 5 (16:33):
Fabricate a problem, made a lie. Step eight, put it
down the news every night.

Speaker 3 (16:37):
Step ninth.

Speaker 5 (16:38):
When people start to fight and divide, take control of
This is called situational design.

Speaker 6 (16:53):
When I see a new broadcast from the south Side Unicorn,
I can't wait to listen to it.

Speaker 7 (16:58):
You just never know what he's gonna say.

Speaker 8 (17:07):
Hey, my name is tooth Sweet and I'm New York
City's original artist singing for the cause of freedom. I've
spent the last ten years of my life documenting history
through my music. It's like a recipe. It's plessively bringing
out the best of me, your decif your testiny, to
create my own destiny and understanding person the personally I

(17:28):
learn my listens and let them you're learning. And when
I'm in need of a dose and reality to escape
the liberal land and make believe, I tune into the
south Side Unicorn where the truth is the sound is
New York City cockrite, Babs, my name is too Sweet.
And you're listening to my friend Can't White on the
south Side Unicorn.

Speaker 4 (17:47):
And this part is just getting started.

Speaker 9 (17:56):
You are listening to the south Side You're Unicorn Show
hosted by my friend Ken White.

Speaker 10 (18:03):
Here'll be back after these messages.

Speaker 3 (18:11):
Hey, it's your boy Can't White, host of the South
Side Unicorn Show. And we are back for a segment too,
And we still have Leo Zaki with us, which is
a great honor. He is rooting for the office of
governor in the state of California. When we left off
in the first segment, we would just get in a
good feel for this accomplished businessman, this prince of the industry,

(18:32):
if you will, And he was explaining to us just
how damaging the woke policies of California can be to
a business. So we're gonna resume with that and tap
it off and go into immigration. So as you were
saying in the first segment about wages and offsetting. What
were you saying, Well.

Speaker 4 (18:52):
The fact that it's a fixed cost because you have
variable costs in business, and fixed costs, variable costs fluctuate,
you know, that can be seasonality availability. Those are things
that companies can can move and work within today to
increase their margins. Fixed costs are kind of like hardline
items that you just really don't have any flexibility with.
So when you increase minimum wage, companies have to adjust

(19:13):
the only way they can adjust as by increasing the price.
And then that product now becomes more expensive, and this
negative cycle happens and the value of the dollar becomes
worth less because then people, yeah, they might be earning
more money, but they have to spend more money for
the same product that they are already getting because of
those kinds of practices. And then when it comes to
playing on a global market, which we're doing here in California,

(19:35):
because agriculture is the number one reason in California is
as large of an economy as it is. I mean,
we've been the fifth for those so long, and you know,
I'm hearing contradictory things about us and sliding into fourth place,
which I don't believe I think we're certainly falling more
than anything. And we play on a global market here
in California. As I mentioned, we exported oh my god,
I can't tell you how many millions of pounds of

(19:58):
products to China, to Mexico to Canada. So we as
a not only as a state, but as a nation,
we lose our ability to be competitive in that global
market when we don't have a competitive price point by
those arbitrary rules and regulations that are passed here in California.

Speaker 3 (20:15):
Wow. So I would imagine when you, as a child,
see your family business vertically integrated starting to be attacked.
That's the word I want to use. They were attacked
by the legislators of the state of California. It almost
feels personal. So I would imagine that's making you feel
some kind of way.

Speaker 4 (20:34):
Hunh, Well, look, it's not necessarily mean what happened. I'm
just a prime example of what happens in California with
their poor policies. Because if it can destroy a business
that's family owned and as large as we were, it
can destroy anybody's business. And it doesn't matter large as small.
But think about how difficult it is for folks you're

(20:55):
in business yourself, how difficult it is just to make
it by here in California, the arbitrary rules you have
to abide by, the whole regulatory process with signing up
and just the taxation. How you don't really get to
keep your you.

Speaker 3 (21:08):
Spend You spend more of your time filling out paperwork
for these bureaucratic agencies than you do running your own business.
As a matter of fact, I have to do some
paperwork tonight. That just makes me go, oh, but it's
got to be done. And they want their paperwork on time,
as if though even though you and I are self employed,
as if though we work for the state. It's crazy,

(21:31):
you know. So with that, you know, you made a
statement at the c pack which we're gonna actually share
that with you, ladies and gentlemen. I believe it was
a very awesome speech. You came on to the stage
like a boss. It was really cool, And I'm like, Okay,
this man, this man is you know, top top level stuff.
He's ready to handle the big game. You're ready to

(21:54):
handle the big game because you had four thousand employees.
When you get to four thousand employees, it's not that
big a junk to be the CEO of a state.
There's not much of a you know, wouldn't you agree? Well,
I mean we were.

Speaker 4 (22:10):
Yeah, It's it's a lot of people to manage a
lot of moving parts. You know, did I did? I
directly oversee all of them now and we had four
thousand employees that are peak. When we closed, we had
about a thousand. We've been trying to survive. So I
just want to make sure that Okay, okay, I'm sure
to have any false statements out there.

Speaker 3 (22:28):
Right, we don't do that. We don't do that on
your show, my show. We keep it real. But I'm
still pointing the picture. You know, some companies struggle with
five employees. It just having five is a heading with thousands.
You see what I'm saying. That's what I'm saying. And
you were able to do that successfully for decades, you know,
So I want to point that out and give you
credit where credit you can do. I appreciate that. Uh,

(22:51):
But as you said in the CEPAC meeting, California is
three point seven trillion dollars in deficit. Yet Gavin Newsom
is running around around like a turkey saying that we're
the fourth largest no pun intended. He's running around around
saying that we have the fourth largest economy in the world.
Help me out here, Zach, your business man. Is that

(23:12):
is that Matt javinuu or what's going on?

Speaker 4 (23:15):
No way, this is this is something very wrong. Look,
everything that the state has been doing when it comes
to business has been shoving them out of here. Whether
it's agriculture, like the dairies are packing up and getting
ready to leave. You have almond farmers that are ripping
up their crops. You had not just almonds, but even
citrus farmers. All these small family farms, you know, fifty

(23:36):
one hundred, two hundred acres that can't make it because
of the water restrictions that are here in California. When
you have businesses like Chevron that have been here for
one hundred and forty years packing up and leaving in
an out Burger moved headquarters to Tennessee, Oracles left, Tesla's left,
ninety nine cent stores went out of business.

Speaker 3 (23:52):
I missed my ninety nine cents stores. Let me tell
you get right, I had no shame in my game,
rolling up to ninety nine sense store and fill in
my basket. Now my basket ain't so full no more.

Speaker 4 (24:04):
Yeah, and it ain't so cost effective now, is it right?

Speaker 11 (24:08):
Right?

Speaker 4 (24:08):
And nine to nine Sensor is a great customer of ours.
But that's the thing. When all these businesses pack up
and leave, the jobs leave with them too, and so
does the tax revenue. I mean, hell, look at the
movie industry. They're hardly making any movies here in California.
It can't well because it's too many rules to any regulations.
There's no incentive to be here in California. And part

(24:29):
of my solutions here in California is to help bring
the movie industry back, not just not just help ag
because ags my you know, my forte, but help make
things available for all people. I want to incentivize business
to be here in California, make us competitive on a
national scale for job opportunities, but make us competitive with
the products that we produce here on a global scale.

Speaker 3 (24:48):
That's where I want to drill in a little bit,
because as we go down into the show, ladies and gentlemen,
it gets deeper and deeper. And we have mister Zachi
here with us, and he's gonna answer the questions, and
we're gonna keep it fact based and no no hyperbole.
But now we're talking about what these leftists, socialists, the woke.
I mean, if that's the word, you know, we got

(25:09):
a thousand words for these people. But they're in charge
by over eighty percent of our legislature and they've almost
ruined housing. Business, everything in California is on the decline.
Should you sit in the governor's seat?

Speaker 2 (25:23):
One?

Speaker 3 (25:24):
I know I'm gonna get an invitation, but should you
sit in the governor's seat? And we're still on the
topic of business. A lot of people are saying things
like they want to abolish taxes, so forth and so on.
What would be your first thing you did in office
to help the beleaguered under attack businesses in the state

(25:44):
of California.

Speaker 4 (25:46):
Well, I mean, there's a lot of things that we
can do. I mean, I think just flat out lowering
the taxes is something that we can make happen for businesses.
But we also have to do away with the regulations
more than anything. I like what Trump did in his
first term. Every new regulation that came in, you had
to get rid of two. I thought that was a
great concept and it worked really, really well. And you

(26:06):
know what the results were from that. What eleven percent
growth in the middle class. That's success.

Speaker 3 (26:13):
Well, if the middle class grows, everybody benefits. You know,
they talk about trickle down economics. Well, if you got
the ultra rich and the ultra poor, that trickle down
is gonna be a real sorry trickle. But with the
middle class, the middle class buy stuff, widescreen TVs because
of the Super Bowl, they get gardening services. We could

(26:36):
go on and on about what the middle class services as,
but it's it's like a transmission from the engine to
the wheels without a transmission. Hey, that thing is going
willy nilly, and that's our American economy. But now we're
gonna smooth go into one thing before we get to
the immigration issue. Ladies and gentlemen, Like I said, Ozaki

(27:00):
walked on to the seapack of twenty twenty five. He
walked on like a boss, and his speech was very good.
So I feel compelled to want to share that with
you all tonight. So Leof is okay with you. I'm
going to take a moment and we're gonna expose that
speech to the people.

Speaker 4 (27:16):
Sure, I appreciate that.

Speaker 3 (27:17):
Thank you, You're welcome, ladies and gentlemen. My friend Leo
Zaki at the Seapack of twenty twenty five at his speech.

Speaker 12 (27:26):
Ladies and gentlemen and lady's welcome Leo, Hello, Seapack.

Speaker 4 (27:54):
My name is Leo Zaki and I'm the host of
the international radio show America Matters on the Sale Network
and the Answer Network. I was vice president of Zaki Farms,
my family's poultry company, and a board member of the
California Poultry Federation for ten years. One hundred and twenty
years ago, my family legally immigrated to California, where my

(28:15):
great grandfather started what became Zaki Farms. Zaki Farms was
a vertically integrated business and the largest poultry company on
the West Coast, largest organic turkey producer in the nation,
and the largest privately owned employer in California. After ninety years,
we were forced to close our doors and put thousands
of people out of work because of elected officials in

(28:37):
California who hate private business. They raised the anti competitive
minimum wage and overregulated the entire industry until it was
impossible to exist. Now, a lot of smart people will
tell you this is just mismanagement, just waste, just in competence.

Speaker 3 (29:00):
But let's be real.

Speaker 4 (29:00):
For a second. This is not in competence. This is
a deliberate strategy to destroy small businesses and the middle class.
California isn't run by the people anymore. It's run by
political cartel, by handful of ruling families and their cronies
who will not stop unless we drive them out. Many

(29:28):
of you, especially the younger ones in the audience, might
not even know this, but California used to be a
red state, a strong conservative state. And here's what they
don't want you to know. California still has more conservatives
than any other state. That's more than Texas, more than Florida.

(29:49):
So how did the radical stay in power. They built
a one party dictatorship and they call it a supermajority.
And they did this by running Democrats but calling them Republicans.
These rhinos stole the vote from the people by making
IDs for voting illegal, by inflating the census, jerry manderin

(30:12):
ballot harvesting, and removing all over sight that was in
place to ensure election integrity. I'm no detective, but even
a dummy can smell voter fraud. When the state with
the most conservatives somehow magically votes blue every year, We
are blessed to have Donald Trump as our president, We

(30:37):
truly are. But all that means is that we have
a few more years and fighting and a fighting chance
to clean out the gangsters who are plundering our beautiful nation.
The fight continues, and we must win this battle. And
this battle is in California. We can turn California read again.

(31:04):
It's responsible for some of the worst legislators in the
nation and destabilizing our republic with anti American policies. If
it happened here, it can and will happen in your
state too. But that's why you're here to see conservative
values defended against the psychotic enemies of our republic with
their bs Woke Agenda twenty one in fifteen minute cities.

(31:27):
Every day the new Department of Government Efficiency exposes more
of their lunacy and disgusting waste. California needs its own
DOZE and a proper purchasing department to manage its spending
habit with full transparency. Transparency in our government is mandatory

(31:49):
to keep out the bad guys. California is over three
point two trillion dollars in debt, and thanks to DOZE,
we will soon know some of the insanity these maniacs
have been waste seeing our money on. This isn't just corruption,
it's criminal. The fires in Los Angeles have woken up
a lot of lefties, so guess what. It doesn't matter

(32:12):
if he used to be a liberal or conservative. When
you're homeless, losing everything tends to change your mindset. I'm
here to tell you that California is ready for change,
but it won't happen without the support of our Republicans
across the nation. That means all of you, everyone in
this room and listening at home, wants to save this
country and defeat the Marxist globalist woke agenda. The time

(32:35):
to strike is now, but the establishment Rhinos are working
hard to derail our America first efforts. Support your grassroots
patriots and sign up for your local precinct committeemen. There's
over two hundred thousand empty seats out of the four
hundred thousand nationwide. If we're going to hold the line,

(32:56):
we need to scoop them up and also run for
local council committee, statewide positions. Trump winning does not mean
the war is won. It means we are just getting
started and Americans are gearing up the battle isn't just
against a toxic ideology. It's against criminals who have infiltrated

(33:20):
our system and are trying to destroy it from within.
We are going to break the totalitarian supermajority in California
with the help of God, the prayers of the righteous,
and a lot of hard work. Again, my name is
Leo Zaki, and please tune into my radio show Monday

(33:42):
through Friday and visit my website to see how you
can get involved locally with other patriots. Go to turn
red dot org. And I want to thank all of
you so much. America, California's in the fight. Thank you.
See fact.

Speaker 3 (34:00):
See I told you that speech was pretty good. That
speech was very heartfelt and very passionate, and he had
a lot of stuff in there that we're gonna now
add to our conversation on the South Side Unicorn Show.
But as promised, we're gonna talk about immigration real quick.
Leo Zaki is a California He's not like me or

(34:20):
many of the rest of us who have come to
California from somewhere else. You've been here, you know, be like,
don't call us to come back. I've been here for years,
So okay with that being said, his family has been
in California. And if I'm wrong, stop me. You've been
in California for one hundred and twenty years and you
are the descendant of immigrants. Am I right? Yep?

Speaker 4 (34:43):
Been here in Los Angeles for over one hundred and
twenty years.

Speaker 3 (34:46):
Wow. So give us a little short story of the
one hundred and twenty years of the Zaki family. What's
going down and how did it happen? And who immigrated here?

Speaker 4 (34:55):
Well, my great well, some of my great grandparents and
some great great grandparents came to this country a very
long time ago. I don't know the whole story of
how they wound up here. All I know is that
they got to California in the early nineteen hundreds in
Los Angeles.

Speaker 3 (35:14):
Wow. And that's okay, because it's true of all of us.
By the time you get to the fourth generation, very
few of us know our great grandparents. We definitely don't
know who our great great grandparents were. So that's just
part for the course. But it does give you an
empathetic perspective on this incredible immigration issue. So I'm just

(35:35):
going to say one word and then you take it
from there. Immigration.

Speaker 4 (35:39):
Yeah, Well, also on the subject of immigrants, a lot
of my friends are first generation born immigrants. I even
have folks that, you know, I came here and became
naturalized citizens, and they understand the importance of what it
is to be an American and the opportunities that come
from being here in America. So I'm all for legal

(35:59):
immigrants through the proper channels, and but illegal immigration is
something I've been talking about and out against for a
long time because it disenfranchises all the people that came
here and did it the right way. And the other
worst part too, is that when those folks came, like
a lot of my Persian Jewish friends that came from Iran,

(36:20):
well they were you know, they weren't coming here with
incentives and handouts for housing and health care and education.
But the people that are coming here today are exclusively
coming here for those handouts, and they take advantage of that.
And then you factor in the fact that we have
a narco state to our south in Mexico that is

(36:41):
pushing the cartel's drugs, that's in cahoots with China, pushing
the fentanyl, killing hundreds of thousands of Americans every year.
Some of my friends have died to those drugs that
are being brought across this border. So yeah, but this
is there's a lot of reasons that I'm in this
fight and talking about the importance of stopping illegal immigration
and making sure that this country is fair for those

(37:03):
I mean for everybody. I mean the folks on the
love that scream about fair and equitable. Well, you're disincentivizing
and disenfranchising everybody that came here the right way when
you do that.

Speaker 3 (37:12):
It's right. The devil is a liar when it comes
to the Democrats, And I'm sorry to say that, but
that's evidence based. Ladies and gentlemen, if they say one thing,
they actually mean the other thing. You and I have
a mutual friend. Her name is Agnes Gibbinney. She's an
angel mama President Donald J.

Speaker 11 (37:28):
Trump.

Speaker 3 (37:29):
She integrated or immigrated into the United States legally from
Budapest and then unfortunately suffered the loss of her son
due to illegal immigrant You can't make a story like
that up. That's like something out of the freaking Twilight Zone.
She comes here legally, does everything right, and her beautiful son, Runnie,

(37:50):
was a hero. He's literally tried to stop evil from
doing harm to another person and lost his life to
an illegal immigrant. So that being said, should you sit
in the governor's see are you four just basically if
you didn't come in the right way, you got to
get your butt out of here, or are you on

(38:11):
the lines of let's truly look at each and every
last one of these people and if they're not trendy arragua,
if they're not Ms thirteen, if they haven't molested a child,
if they haven't bashed a woman's head in with a
brick and raped or please forgive me for being graphic
ladies and gentlemen, but I'm trying to make a point, right,
Are you for like full removal or do you have

(38:31):
a plan for that?

Speaker 4 (38:33):
Well? I mean, look, if you were to actually sit
down and analyze every single individual case, I mean you're
talking about tens of millions of people in cases. I mean,
if you're exclusively talking about California alone, I mean you're
probably talking about at least five to seven million people
in individual cases. That takes a long long time. I mean,
imagine if we actually went through the whole process of

(38:53):
having everybody who is here legally go to the courts,
it would take years. If not decades to have every
case heard, so well, unfortunately they've broken the law, and
unfortunately with that, there's going to be consequences. But consequences
need to be enforced when when rules are broken, and
we have a big nasty habit in this country right
now of not having consequences for crimes. So I'm one

(39:16):
hundred percent in favor of removing everybody who is here
illegally or overstaying their visa. And that's kind of what
I voted for when I voted for Donald Trump. I
wanted ice agents, local police to go over podtularly remove
these people from this country because they're taking advantage of
we the people. This country is America and it is
for Americans. And if you'd like to be American, you

(39:37):
can go through the proper channels and apply to B one.
But if you're going to come here and take advantage
of this country and get handouts from this state in
California is so horrible for what they're doing with the
handouts and the incentivizations of illegal immigration here by giving
free health care and helping pay for houms in housing
and the education that they're giving to folks.

Speaker 3 (39:57):
What happened?

Speaker 4 (39:58):
What about me, what about all my friends?

Speaker 3 (40:00):
All right, what is that? I gotta I gotta pull
you in for a minute, because it's that time again. Brother,
It's time to get some chips up in here. If
you're liking the content, if you want to see more,
go ahead and help us out by going to what

brother out. But now, having said that, we're gonna take
a commercial break, we'll be right back after these messages,
and when we come back, we're gonna wrap up on immigration,
and then we're gonna get Leo Zaki's report card on
the first one hundred days of President Donald J. Trump.
We'll be right back after these messages.

Speaker 6 (40:52):

Speaker 7 (40:57):

Speaker 11 (41:05):
You're worn, you were told you begged not to wick
m gen X. Well, congratulations, we're awake. Now.

Speaker 8 (41:25):
Hey, my name is tooth Sweet and I'm New York
City's original artist singing for the cause of freedom. I've
spent the last ten years of my life documenting history
through my music. It's like a recipe. It's plessively bringing
out the best of me, your your testiny, to create
my own destiny and understanding persily learn my listens and

(41:48):
let them you're learning. And when I'm in need of
a dose reality to escape the liberal land and make
believe I tuned into the south Side Unicorn where the
truth is. His solid is New York City concrete. Babs,
my name is too sweet. And you'll listening to my
fan Kid White on the South Side Unicorn and it's fun.

Speaker 4 (42:06):
He's just getting started.

Speaker 3 (42:12):
Step white.

Speaker 5 (42:13):
Train the people only to consume Step two. Infiltrate adults
with the nose. Step three, and doctor Nathan children through
the schools and the music and the apps on the
phones that they use.

Speaker 3 (42:22):
Step four.

Speaker 5 (42:23):
Separate the right from the left. Step five, separate the
white from the black. Step six, separate the rich from
the poor. Use religion and the quality to separate a more.

Speaker 3 (42:32):
Step seven.

Speaker 5 (42:33):
Fabricate a problem, made a lie. Step eight put it
down the news every night.

Speaker 3 (42:37):
Step night.

Speaker 5 (42:37):
When people start to fight and to by take control
of this is called situational design.

Speaker 9 (42:46):
You are listening to the South Side Unicorn Show hosted
by my friend Ken White.

Speaker 10 (42:53):

Speaker 3 (43:03):
Hey hey, hey, it's a boy, King White, host of
the South Side Unicorn Show, and we are back for
the third segment with mister Leo Zaki, a gubernatorial candidate
for the state of California. Yeah. When you look at
all the people who are throwing their hat and the ring,
it's like watching the Avengers. It's like watching a Marvel
comic because each and every last one of them is
a powerhouse in their own right. We gotta send somebody.

(43:26):
It's sort of like a Highlander. See I'm into that.
I don't know Zaki if you're a comic con type
of guy, but I am, and so a lot of
my references are about movies and things like that. At the
end of this game, it's like Highlander. There can be
only one. So you have to listen to each candidate
and understand who this person is because we gotta get

(43:47):
this one right, ladies and gentlemen. As you heard in
Leo Zaki's speech at the Seapack Convention of twenty twenty five,
this is for all the Marvels. We can't get this
one wrong. Gotta get it right in the state of California.
So now and wrapping up on immigration, you wanted to
say a few things about it, and then we're gonna
get that report card from you.

Speaker 4 (44:08):
Yeah. No, I was just saying that, Look, if you
came here legally, you got to go back. You've broken
the law. If we're going to have a nation, we
need to have consequences for the laws that we have
in place. That's how you keep ordering society. And I
just I'm not I'm not busting my hump in either
of you to turn this state or this nation into

(44:29):
a charity. I want people to be able to come
here as as citizens that are in the process of
becoming citizens. And I understand that there's a lot of
refugees out in the world, but we're not the planet's
life raft. And I'm certainly sick and tired of being
the world's police force too. So well, I want to
take care of Americans. And when I say that America first,

(44:49):
I mean one hundred percent Americans first and Californians first.

Speaker 3 (44:54):
There's nothing wrong with that. And as I said, we
have a mutual friend agen is giving me who is
an angel? Mama? President Donald J. Trump? Oh, you got
an endorsement out of her.

Speaker 4 (45:05):
Yeah, she gave me endorsement.

Speaker 3 (45:07):
Job good. Yeah, that's a that's a good endorsement to have.

Speaker 10 (45:12):
Uh.

Speaker 3 (45:12):
And as she said when she came here through Ellis Island,
if I'm not mistaken or she made reference to it,
let me make sure I get that right. She said
that they made sure that you had enough money to
even come to the United States, that you didn't have
any illnesses or sicknesses or anything like that, because if
you didn't have your own money and you came here

(45:33):
kind of broke down, they kind of sent you back,
you know what I mean, because we want we want
your best, in your brightness. There's nothing wrong with that.
I think when you consider the immigration policies of Japan, well,
China doesn't even really have one.

Speaker 7 (45:47):
Uh.

Speaker 3 (45:47):
In other nations Mexico, for example, Mexico does not brook
illegal aliens. Imagine that. So, having said all of that,
it's report card time. President Donald J. Trump has been
in office now for one hundred days or better. On
a scale of standard school grading as we know it
to be, what would be your grade for President Donald J. Trump?

Speaker 4 (46:11):
Now, mmm, let me give him a B B plus.

Speaker 3 (46:17):
Did you give him a B plus. Yeah.

Speaker 4 (46:19):
I mean, look, he's not perfect. He's done a lot
of really great things. I was definitely not down with
him giving a half a trillion dollars for AI research
for you know what was it? The the the the vaccines,
the AI m r n A vaccines. I'm not I'm
not with that at all.

Speaker 3 (46:41):
Wait a minute, stop, stop stopping now, you're domess you
brother up. I did not take the jab. I'm proud
of it. You know, I don't think well, I kind
of figured you wouldn't get put it this way. On
the day of the scorched Earth. Should we have zombies
running around, there are certain people you know, you can
you can count on when you see him out in
the field. I got you, you got me. And I'm
not knocking those who had to take the jab because

(47:03):
you got families. They put you back up against the
wall and said we gotta take you, gotta take this shot.
No pun intended. It was an optic. Okay, I'm not
knocking those people that had to do that. But I'm
not a fan of this m n ra A stuff.
I have a layman's understanding of what that stuff is,
but I don't want that junk in my body. God
made me a certain way, and I'm gonna leave here.

(47:24):
That's saying freaking way.

Speaker 4 (47:26):
So what is this m and ra A stuff you're
talking about, bro, Well, so he had like all these
AI guys like who's the oracle guy on there, and
basically they said that they were gonna give five hundred
billion dollars to go and carry out research with this
m R and A a AI vaccine stuff where they

(47:46):
could basically like custom tailor a vaccine for people's illnesses
and stuff like that, which it sounds really great on
the surface, you know, I love that. That's how that's
how they sell everybody on these things. But I mean
just you know, look at look at uh like movies
like look at Double O seven, you know, Inspector, right,
they make these they can you know, custom tailor.

Speaker 3 (48:09):
You know, you're pulling this straight out of my head.
I said that about Suckerberg. I mean, mister Zuckerberg aka
Suckerberg and all these guys. These guys are all like
want to be bond villains, you know, all these multi
billionaires and whatnot. I'm waiting on one of them to
build their own damn island. So you're saying that this
huh Epstein. Ah, yeah, that's a different kind of island.

(48:34):
But I hear what you're saying. You're right, he did
make his own island. And and and that's the whole ticket.
I kind of feel where you're coming from. So as
a governor, that's another thing. That's why I give him
a low grade.

Speaker 4 (48:45):
Where the hell is? Where the hell is the released forms?

Speaker 3 (48:48):
Uh?

Speaker 4 (48:49):
The the I want to know who was there at
Epstein Island. I want to know what happened. Why do
we get this reacted redacted? Nonsense? I wanted that released, okay.

Speaker 3 (49:00):
And you know what, I'm right there with you, brother,
mister Epstein lost his life. Giselle is in prison for
the rest of her life, and yet nobody else is
in jail, nobody else's that's not right, you know, if
you're gonna take them out, And we broach on the
idea of child sex trafficking and all of that, and

(49:20):
California runs eighth in the world for child sex trafficking.
Now you got the Democrats who don't even want to
sign a bill that will protect fifteen to seventeen year
olds from annoyance from solicitation, and the list still hasn't
come out. You got a good point, brother, Those two
points are pretty good. M and Ra that sketch. The

(49:42):
list hasn't come out. That's sketch. What else is sketch?
Because a bee is kind of I don't know. In
the movie Crimson Tide or whatever it is, there was
a word that they use. It was called the villainess
no stopping. You know, the villainous school master. Your score

(50:03):
is like a tough school master A be Okay, what
else is there anything else that would get that bee?

Speaker 4 (50:10):
I just I understand the concept of, you know, the
gold Pass or whatever, and I know that we've sort
of had something like that, but I just I'm not
I'm not a big fan of necessarily selling US citizenships.
I mean, I get the concept, but I'm I'm trying
to I'm trying to understand how it's exactly going to

(50:32):
play out. I mean, I get it, you're supposed to
be able to come in and create jobs.

Speaker 3 (50:35):
And yeah, let me correct myself. That wasn't Crimson Tide.
Even though I love movies, I got that one wrong.
The movie I made that extrapolation from is called The
Hunt for Red October one of my most favorite movies.

Speaker 4 (50:47):
No, I mean, so I'm not I'm not super fond
of the whole selling US citizenship thing because it's a
very valuable thing. And you know, just because you have
a lot of money doesn't and yeah, you can create jobs.
It's such a it's such an interesting concept. I'm not
one hundred percent in love with it. And I just
don't think he has the best people around him.

Speaker 1 (51:08):
Still.

Speaker 4 (51:08):
The problem is that there's a lot of gatekeepers and
Trump is very sheltered apparently, at least from a lot
of things. And yeah, he does have an ego and
it does certainly get in the way. That's why people
would do him at his rallies when he would talk about,
you know, take the vaccine. But that's how disconnected he
is from reality. And that's because he's insulated himself with
not the best people. And I mean, I'm look, maybe

(51:32):
I'm impatient and I want more.

Speaker 13 (51:35):
Only been one hundred days, bro, one hundred days. Yeah,
but one hundred days. But we already know who's doing
bad things. We are We already know that there's a
lot of issues in the CIA and the FBI, And
you know, why aren't we why aren't we exposing more
of these truths I was expecting.

Speaker 3 (51:51):
I'm ready for the five in the morning purp walk.
Somebody's got to get purp walked at five in the morning.
How many times did we wake up and see good
patriotic Americans by the Biden administration, of the Biden regime,
you know, we wake up and here come FBI with helicopters,
you know, guns, you know, drawing the hone inn yards.
That's how they treated GOP. Now, I'm not saying we

(52:12):
want to be as low down and dirty and disgusting
as they are, but surely we should have the goods
on somebody that we could put walk. Would you agree?

Speaker 4 (52:22):
I think there are I mean, considering all the nonsense
that's going on between Crossfire, Hurricane, the Russia hoax, why
aren't we getting anybody held accountable? You know, this is
the frustrating things. But look, he's done a lot of
great things. I mean, I'm also not fond of him saying, oh,
he's got this like whole real estate plan for Gaza.
We should us should control Gaza. I don't I don't

(52:44):
want to be a part of any foreign affairs. I
don't want I don't want any foreign wars. I don't
want to send money to Israel. I don't want to
send money to Ukraine. America first means keeping it here.

Speaker 3 (52:53):
Now, let me let me interject right there from my audience,
because I'm sure they would probably hit you with this
question right about here. That's sounds a little xenophoby, brother,
that sounds a little xenophobia.

Speaker 4 (53:03):
No, no, it's it's it's I want my money to
stay in America because we got the we have in California,
for example, We've got the nation's largest population of homeless.
We got over a quarter million people that are homeless
in this country. You still have places like Flint, Michigan,
that don't have clean water. You've got FEMA that ran
out of money. I mean, granted it was under the
Biden administration, but ran out of money, couldn't help the

(53:25):
people they're in Asheville, North Carolina. And guess what, Ashville
is still a friggin mess. Okay, Yeah, don't forget East Palestine, Ohio.
What's going on over there? That place has still got
a lot of problems.

Speaker 3 (53:38):
So let me get this straight. They would fix the
Gaza aka Palestine before they would fix Palestine, Ohio.

Speaker 10 (53:45):
M Hm.

Speaker 4 (53:46):
That's why I want my money here. I want to
help the Americans here because look, there's always going to
be tragedy around the world. This is that's the reality
we live in. This is the real world. Life ain't fair. Okay.

Speaker 3 (53:58):
It looks like India and Pakistan and having it it
too right now, So you're right, yeah, now they're.

Speaker 4 (54:03):
Launching I don't want to be part of that.

Speaker 3 (54:04):
That's not my thing.

Speaker 4 (54:06):
That is not my thing.

Speaker 3 (54:07):
That is not park.

Speaker 4 (54:08):
We ain't got no business being over there getting involved
in any of these wars. Or we have a lot
of problems here at home. Our infrastructure is crumbling, okay.
I mean, we need to invest our money in America
and stop sending it overseas. That's why I'm that's why
I'm not totally giving Trump an outstanding one hundred percent

(54:30):
plus like I said, But he's still doing really good things.
He's going after the you know, then he signed the
executive order saying that about the insider trading stuff with with.

Speaker 3 (54:40):
That's gonna give a consternation to Nancy Pelosi. That's gonna
be a throne in her side. And I believe that's
where it was aimed. But now with a B and
you're talking about a flat beat. You're not saying a
B minus or a B plus. It's just a B.
I am I right in your.

Speaker 4 (54:53):
Great BB plus. Yeah.

Speaker 3 (54:56):
So with that being said, should you sit in the
governor's seat, how's that relationship going to go? I mean,
how do you see yourself working with the I don't
know what you call him. He's he's almost more than
a president. You almost want to say the emperor. But
you know what I'm saying, how is that going to go?
How do you see yourself working with him?

Speaker 4 (55:15):
Again, I'm gonna be completely honest and transparent with him
and let him know the needs of California. I mean,
the state is half owned by the federal government anyways,
that half the land that is, so we're gonna have
to work with the federal government. I want to work
with the president, whether it's Donald Trump or somebody else,
because my goal and my objective as the governor is
to make sure that the people of California and their

(55:37):
needs are being met. And I'd like to exceed their
needs and give them the things that they want. But
we have to take care of the foundational issues first.

Speaker 3 (55:46):
I'm happy and should you should you actually, you know,
win the election, your administration would out strip President Trump's
term Because the election is in twenty twenty six, you'll
earn a four year administration. That means you'll be in
office until the year twenty thirty. Do I have that right?

Speaker 4 (56:04):
Yeah?

Speaker 3 (56:05):
Yes, yeah yeah, And he's out of here in twenty
twenty eight, So you would actually have to deal with
two differents, right right, So okay, I see where you
are with that. And you know, some people would be
reluctant recognizing who your constituents are going to be. For
a larger part, they would be reluctant to give this

(56:28):
man a bee. But I respect that and I applaud
you for being honest about that. But now we've talked
about our fellow GOP. We've talked about the eleventh rule
of President Ronald Waken, which is speak no ill of
fellow Republicans and da da da. But this state which
used to be read, is you outlined in your speech
at the Sea Pac twenty twenty five, which was again

(56:50):
a great speech, This state which used to be read
still continues to vote blue and in a terror wait,
so we have to take a break. But when we
come back, We want to hear your plan for how
you're going to appeal to those other people who the
minute they hear the word GOP or Republican, they're instantly

(57:14):
you know, they turned out from us. But hopefully you
have a plan for that. Ladies and gentlemen, when we
return from this station break, we're going to be talking
to Leo Zaki once again, and we're gonna be talking
about policy plan and some other issues that I'm sure
you want to hear from. So we'll be right back
after these messages.

Speaker 6 (57:43):

Speaker 7 (57:47):

Speaker 11 (57:56):
You were warned, you were told, you begged not to
Wickim gen x will congratulations, we're awake.

Speaker 9 (58:11):
Now you are listening to the south Side Unicorn Show
hosted by my friend Ken White.

Speaker 10 (58:25):

Speaker 3 (58:34):
Hey, hey, it's a boy, Kim White, host of the
south Side Unicorn Show, and today we have gubernatorio candidate
Leo Zaki with us, and we have been talking about
a lot of good stuff, including B grades for President
Donald J. Trump. Now, hey, everybody has their points and
everybody has their scurse. I think that's the first time
I've heard anybody give them a b. But at the
same time, I have to give mister Leo Zaki an

(58:57):
a for honesty. When we left off, we were talking
about a great number of things, but we were sort
of about and I say sort of about because I'm
from the South side of Chicago. You got to bear
with a brothers. Sometimes. We were sort of about to
go into the stratagem of a R. Let's say justin R,
because if you got an R by your name, as

(59:19):
Leo Zaki stated, we're playing from their forty yard line
just to get up in this game. This is a
gorilla primary type of state complements of Arnold Schwarzenegger, which
you know, if I ever see him, man, I got
something to say to him, because that was Cole. You
know he fixed it. He almost put the fix in
where a Republican can never be part of the California government. Again.

(59:44):
Now with that being said, and you preach it to
the choir the pulpit, the people that most gubernatorial candidates
from the Republican side, pardon me, deal with, are those
with are by their name, maybe an eye sometimes maybe
the independence. But let's keep it real. Nobody is going

(01:00:06):
to win this state in an election if you don't
get a good decent amount of those other people. And
I say that just to make the pejorative point, but
those who are just distinctively Democrats, the African American community,
most of the Latino community, as surprisingly, as I learned
by having doctor Michael sim on the show, a great

(01:00:29):
deal of the Asian community are simply predisposed to voting Democrat.
So with that being said, mister Zachi, my friend, my homie, sir,
and what is your plan in your campaign to get
into those areas that Republicans otherwise cannot get into.

Speaker 4 (01:00:48):
Well, you just stick to the key foundational issues, the
issues that impact every California that are irrelevant to party lines.
And that's the thing with California is such a can
mess that you can throw a rock in any direction
and hit a problem, whether it's the drought or the homelessness,
or the cost of living, or wildfires or crime or
corruption or education, so on and so forth. But the

(01:01:13):
difference is is that I actually have solutions to many
of these issues that are common sense, and I can
walk you through exactly how we're going to go from
where we are to where we can be and using
a lot of these tools to create additional revenue streams
to bring in more money for the state that doesn't
come from taxation. So by focusing on that, and.

Speaker 3 (01:01:34):
Now I gotta stop you right there for me, because
you wet my appetite as a small business owner myself.
What you just said, You just said a mouthful. How
are you going to get money? If it's not something
you want to discuss right now? Now, it'll be fine,
But how do you do that? How do you bring
money into the state and it's not taxation.

Speaker 4 (01:01:51):
Resources and water is a resource that we can create
an abundance of. It's a renewable resource and we can
create an abundance of it. Do it with power too.
Guess what we've got oil here in California. Drill, baby, drill.
I'm all about that. Not only will it create jobs
and with my estimates, it'll create about one hundred thousand
jobs here and over eighty billion dollars in annual revenue

(01:02:14):
to the state. So yeah, there's a lot of ways
we can bring in money that doesn't require taxation. I mean,
look at some of these Arab countries. How do you
think they live so well because they pay their people
from the resources that they extract and sell. So we
can absolutely do that here with water, with power, with oil.

Speaker 3 (01:02:33):
I'm standing and I mean you just spoke that right out.
So that's clearly something you've been thinking about and then
obviously have looked into. So there's alternative ways to enrich
the Golden State of California without beating the hell out
of its citizens.

Speaker 4 (01:02:47):
Yeah, and if we do it right, we could be
one of the lowest tax states in the country. I'd
like to do away with all taxes altogether because personally,
tax in my opinion, taxation is theft. For it's about
creating abundance, and it's really really simple. We have tons
of snowpack in this Sierra Nevadas. I'm an avid snowboarder,

(01:03:09):
so I'm very familiar with all the snow that we're
getting up there, but we're just not harvesting it. When
you have things like the we're said bypass, where this
snow melt runs off and gets stumped out into the ocean,
and you're even finding farmers for tapping into that resource,
that's a problem.

Speaker 3 (01:03:23):
We see if my little science education holds up. There
are four different ways that we can reclaim water actually purified,
desalinization and so forth and so on. Is the State
of California actually implementing any of those four reclamation programs?

Speaker 4 (01:03:41):
I mean, they do the toilet to tap crap, which
I think is disgusting and I'm not fond of because
you know, the government has really shoddy standards for what
is healthy or palatable or safe to consume. Yeah, I
don't really trust government stuff, so I'm not a fan
of that. But they use reclaim water to water a

(01:04:02):
lot of like public spaces and golf courses and whatnot,
And I understand the uses of that. But we have
been approved for fifty D soul plants in California, but.

Speaker 3 (01:04:12):
Environment been built.

Speaker 4 (01:04:13):
I've been blocking it. Only a handful of been built,
maybe like one or two has been turned on, and
the rest are being held up because of this this
nonsense environmentalism. They say that, oh, well, you know the
brine exhaust is going to kill the sea life. Well
I got some news for you. Most of the sea
life is around the coastal shelf, So why not just
make an exhaust valve that goes miles and miles off shore.

(01:04:36):
You know, we've only built the Transatlantic tables and pipelines
that crisscross continents. Why can't we build a thirty plus
mile exhaust pipe for Brian. It's it's a very simple thing.

Speaker 3 (01:04:46):
Yeah, the problem is put it this way. I was
on a commission for a small city here in southern
California and we were trying to do some building projects.
The board, we were all talking about it and trying
to make it happen, and something called the Wooly Star,
some little insignificant insect. These people come in and tell
us you can't do this development because we have to

(01:05:06):
protect the habitat of the Wooly Star something. And I
just that was one of my first exposures to the
ludicrocy of the California none elected what do you call them?
None elected egos?

Speaker 4 (01:05:22):
Non governmental organizations?

Speaker 3 (01:05:23):
Right, non governmental organizations? And I was like, the hell
you say. We're sitting there trying to improve the life
of the citizens in this small town. You guys come
in and tell us we can't do this beautiful development
because of something called the Wooly Star.

Speaker 4 (01:05:38):
Can it gets worse? It gets worse? Look what happened
here with the fires in Los Angeles. The infrastructure wasn't
able to get upgraded because these environmental regulatory processes blocked
the construction crews from going in there because they said that, oh, well,
they're trampling this shrub, and so they halted the project,
didn't allow the upgrades to take place, spent millions of

(01:06:00):
dollars replanting these shrubs, only to have it all go
up in smoke and get turned into ash. Because it's
all short sighted, feel good stuff. The problem with the
state is that it's reactionary and not proactive. Okay, we
know the rains are gonna come, build the reservoirs, build
the water storage, harvest it collected. Same with the snowpack.

(01:06:21):
We know what's coming. We can do that. And the
best part is is if you tie it in to
my homeless solution like I have, where you literally get
these people off the street into a work program, getting
them drug treatment and mental health treatment. Because homelessness's root
cause is a mental health crisis compounded by a drug
habit exacerbated by a failed education system. Here, provide the treatment,
provide job opportunities, give ten thousand people a shovel. They

(01:06:44):
can dig a pretty big hole pretty quickly. They can
also pour concrete, and that's how you build reservoirs, rinse,
and repeat. Okay, we can do all these things here
in California. It's not that hard. You compound the d
sal with some hydro electric with damming up ourntains where
we can harvest that snowpack water. But also using small
module and nuclear reactors, we can have cheap, abundant power

(01:07:06):
to use to generate more water. So we can create
an abundance and then off and then sell that water
to our neighbors that we share it with by without
building infrastructure to pipe it out, because we get the
line's share of the Colorado River shed. So you sell
it to Mexico, Arizona, Nevada, Idaho, Utah, Colorado, whatever, whoever
the highest bidder is, they can they can have those

(01:07:27):
portions of our water. So that's how you bring in
more revenue. That's how you create abundant because everything is typer,
everything's scarcity. They always talk about scarcity. Okay, this fire
water is so expensive, they artificially lower they lower its
supply and demand, they lower the support dumping it in
the US yes, they artificially lower the supply. Okay, if

(01:07:47):
supplies up here, demands are relatively constant, you dump the
water out to the ocean, so the supply comes down.
Guess what it's at the demand level or below. Now
you can charge more for the same amount that you
were going to sell. Anyways, it's a grift and they're
screwing we the people over.

Speaker 3 (01:08:01):
Got a couple questions for you real quick, as when
we start heading towards the wrapple of the show. You
talked about water, which it sounds like you've really thought
this one out. You're making a believer out of me.
But now let's talk about power. Nuclear power is one
of the most efficient ways to deliver energy to the masses.
How do you feel about that idea?

Speaker 4 (01:08:21):
I think it's the way to go. I mean, look,
if we're ever gonna get right, if we're ever gonna
get a cold fusion right, which is the thing that
everybody wants, is the safe and well, we have to
continue to practice hot fission, but we have small module
of nuclear actors. We have the technology where we can
run these that have very long useful lives. You don't
have to worry about them melting down and having a

(01:08:44):
three mile island Chernobyl situation. You can control them remotely,
and you can build out a grid that is so
robust that you don't have to worry if one goes
down or needs to be shut down or replaced. You
can do it. If you can do it quickly, and
you can still keep all of the power going at
a constant rate.

Speaker 3 (01:09:04):
And you would stopped the sparking. I would imagine that
came about due to the winds.

Speaker 4 (01:09:10):
That's that's what the transmission wires and cables we have
to We have to upgrade that stuff. We should have
these cables being run underground where possible. We should be
having metal, you know, or at least stronger materials instead
of just like you know the flimsy wood telephone poles
that we see everywhere. We can upgrade the infrastructure. The
technology exists. I mean I own part of a company

(01:09:32):
that has been able to take industrial plastic wasts converted
into graphene, which is used in electronics. We're working on
developing a graphene battery too, so we can also have
power storage. It holds a seventy percent better charge, so
more power storage than lithium batteries. It's forty percent later
and it's non flammable, and you can even use it
to pave roads and possibly transmit electric.

Speaker 3 (01:09:53):
That's what I was going to ask you, mister Zachi,
when it comes to alternative forms of power. The lithium
battery which is used in a lot of our ev
the cars. If that thing ever catches on fire, it's
a problem. In fact, I don't think you can put
them out. If I'm correct, you just have to let it.

Speaker 4 (01:10:11):
Yeah, And there's lithium battery like storage like you know,
use like life places and there guess what, they're catching
on fire and they're causing environmental degradation and they're hurting
the communities. I covered this on my show the other
week about these kinds of issues.

Speaker 3 (01:10:26):
When America matters right in the Salem radio station.

Speaker 4 (01:10:29):
That's right Nude Monday through Friday. Okay, I'll check you out, yeah,
Zachi Radio on YouTube and rumble. But the point I'm
making is is that they're they're inefficient. Like I understand,
lithium is the hot you know, the hot you know
element right now, so to speak. But there are other
elements like graphene, which by the way, is currently exclusively mined,

(01:10:53):
so that's the only way you can get it in
between China and North Korea, they control eighty five percent
of the global supply.

Speaker 3 (01:10:59):
Well, it's funny you should mention China and North Korea
when you get a chance. Brother, because we do crisscross
on our shows. You need to check out my I
put it on YouTube and it's on iHeartRadio. I had
the pleasure of interviewing a gentleman named doctor Michael Simms.
He gave us the goods on China, North Korea and
South Korea. There's something going on over there, and we
better pay a closer attention to what's happening on that peninsula.

(01:11:22):
Odd you would say China and North Korea working on
energy issues together.

Speaker 4 (01:11:27):
Yeah, Well, I mean they control the graphee market. And
that's what my other part I was making is that
I am I own part of a company that is
here in California that is doing environmentally friendly things like
taking industrial plastic waste and converting into something useful and
cutting out China and North Korea from that commodity market
where we can do it here, not just in America,

(01:11:48):
but here in California.

Speaker 3 (01:11:50):
Then I to hear you say that.

Speaker 4 (01:11:52):
That's the opportunities that I'm trying to build here for California,
not just for myself, but for everybody. Okay, these are
things that I'm so passionate about this stuff that i
want to invest my money and invest my time into
these things.

Speaker 3 (01:12:03):
So here we go. As we wrap up towards the
end of the show, all of you guys are a
type personalities. Your egos are pretty big. That's just the
way it is. Right, should you not be successful, would
you be willing to work with should the administration be
in our administration? These great ideas that you have, would
you be willing to allow them to be used by

(01:12:25):
the person that is in the chair?

Speaker 4 (01:12:28):
I mean, the whole point is to make California better.
But the reason I'm running is because I don't believe
these other people. I don't believe that they're good. I
don't believe that they're not corruptible. My background, my heritage,
my business acumen, the things I've done here in California.
In fact that I'm probably the only one in the

(01:12:49):
race that's actually from the state. I'm definitely the only
one that has an agg business background, and I'm the
only one that can actually sit here and walk you
through solutions.

Speaker 3 (01:12:58):
Is the reason why they really did that. I mean,
during this entire show, and I'm sure my audience would agree,
every question I put to you, you had a cojing
answer that was a solution oriented. It wasn't complaining, it
wasn't simply pointing out the problems. You offered solutions. So
we've come to the end of this show, which I
regreted came so fast. I want to give you some

(01:13:19):
time to tell the people how to get in touch
with you and if they want to help with your campaign,
how do they do that. The next minute is yours.
Go for it.

Speaker 4 (01:13:27):
Thanks can well, folks. I'm Leo Zaki. I really love
to be your next governor. As I mentioned, I've got
one hundred and twenty year family history here in California.
I'm an Angelino. I've spent a lot of time in
the Central Valley. I've got a business background in agriculture,
and I'm here to make things right. I'm a businessman,
I've been in politics. I want to do things to

(01:13:48):
help the people. I'm not here to be the Republican
governor for Republicans. I'm here to be the governor for
all Californians and remind the folks that we are working
within our legislature, even though it's heavily Democrat right now.
I want to actually build working relationships with them, sit
down and break bread, understand who they are, and make
sure that they understand that we are all in the
same boat. At the end of the day, this is

(01:14:09):
one team. We are Team California, and if we are
going to survive together, we must work together or we
are all going to go down together. So I would
love to earn your help and your support. I'm very
grateful to be endorsed by doctor Robert Malone as well
as Agnes Gibbney the angelom. So if you want to
see real change here in California, please please consider supporting
me at Leo Zaki dot com. Check out my radio

(01:14:30):
show American Matters on the Salem Network. You can go
to America Matters Media's Facebook page or is Zaki Radio
on Rumble or YouTube. And don't forget, it's time for change.
The people of California are ready. Do you want to
have more of the same? And don't forget Republicans have
an opportunity to win here. Do you want a real

(01:14:51):
Republican or do you want more of the same. I'm
here to bring you the change that you want. We're
going to end this woke reality that we're being subject
to to go against the globalists. We're gonna bring wealth
and prosperity and safety back to your homes and back
to your lives.

Speaker 3 (01:15:06):
And that, ladies and gentlemen, is from the mouth of
a gubernatorial candidate, mister Leo Zaki. He does what he
says he's going to do. His record is proven. He
is a California businessman, he is native born to California,
and he does have some solutions to offer to the problems.
We are honored to have been able to present him
to you today. You have his contact information. If you

(01:15:29):
like what you've heard, get involved, Do not sit on
your couch, don't wait for somebody else to do something,
because the bottom line with this whole thing, we haven't
had a Republican government almost twenty years, and just the
very nature of the political beast says it's time. So
if we were ever going to do it, now is

(01:15:50):
the time. And you have a plethora of solid candidates
to be able to choose from. And so with that
let me do my signature clothes. Hey, listen to me.
There's no place I'd rather be, nothing I'd rather do,
than being right here doing this show for you. I'm
Ken White with mister Leo Zaki, gubernatorial candidate for the

(01:16:11):
state of California, and we are out.

Speaker 4 (01:16:18):
I'm Leo Zaki and I'm running for governor in California.
I'd love to earn your support. If you want to
