  Speaker 1: The Joe Rogan Experience. Train by day, Joe Rogan podcast
• 0:08
  Speaker 1: by night, all day.
• 0:09
  Speaker 2: What's going on, Mr. Mayor?
• 0:15
  Speaker 1: I'm so thankful to be here.
• 0:17
  Speaker 2: My pleasure. So first of all, how did this idea
• 0:21
  Speaker 2: even get into your head of running for mayor in L.A.? To.
• 0:26
  Speaker 1: Be clear, I never wanted to run for any political
• 0:29
  Speaker 1: office or have anything to do with politicians. What happened
• 0:32
  Speaker 1: was After spending a year uncovering how my house and
• 0:36
  Speaker 1: my parents' house burned down and my neighbors burned alive
• 0:41
  Speaker 1: and 7,000 houses burned, and then I realized there's a
• 0:43
  Speaker 1: cover-up going on, all the negligence, and I keep posting
• 0:48
  Speaker 1: about it and I have all the facts. I have
• 0:49
  Speaker 1: all the whistleblowers. I have all the evidence and business
• 0:54
  Speaker 1: as usual. And I see that nobody is stepping up
• 0:57
  Speaker 1: to run against the mayor who's responsible for this disaster
• 1:02
  Speaker 1: and so many other disasters. So it became to the
• 1:05
  Speaker 1: point where I got so sick of just being a,
• 1:07
  Speaker 1: as the younger people say in the comment section, a yapper.
• 1:11
  Speaker 1: I felt like I was just yapping, like making these videos.
• 1:15
  Speaker 1: I'm telling the truth. I got a congressional investigation. I
• 1:19
  Speaker 1: went to Washington. I met with everyone possible that I
• 1:22
  Speaker 1: could do as just a citizen. And I was like, okay, well,
• 1:28
  Speaker 1: game on now. I'm going to go into your into
• 1:30
  Speaker 1: your headquarters and just take your job and then remove
• 1:33
  Speaker 1: all these toxic entities that are destroying our way of
• 1:37
  Speaker 1: life in Los Angeles.
• 1:38
  Speaker 2: So let's start from the fire. So the narrative was, God,
• 1:44
  Speaker 2: there was a lot of terrible, stupid, fake narratives. And
• 1:47
  Speaker 2: one of them was climate change. That was the craziest one.
• 1:50
  Speaker 2: The climate change is causing the fire. Look, I lived
• 1:52
  Speaker 2: in L.A. for 29, 30 years, whatever it was. And
• 1:57
  Speaker 2: I guess it was, yeah, somewhere around there. maybe even more,
• 2:02
  Speaker 2: whatever it was, when I lived in L.A., fire season
• 2:06
  Speaker 2: happened every year. This is not climate change. This is
• 2:09
  Speaker 2: not some new thing over the last couple of decades.
• 2:11
  Speaker 2: I was evacuated three different times. I used to live
• 2:15
  Speaker 2: in Bell Canyon and my neighbors, three of the homes
• 2:20
  Speaker 2: right across the street from my house burnt to the
• 2:22
  Speaker 2: ground in 2018. There's always been fires in Los Angeles.
• 2:26
  Speaker 2: But the lack of preparation... for the Palisades fires was astonishing.
• 2:33
  Speaker 2: The fact that the reservoir was empty was criminal mismanagement.
• 2:38
  Speaker 2: I mean, it was just insanity that everybody knew that
• 2:42
  Speaker 2: we had fires, like massive fires, that it was a
• 2:45
  Speaker 2: dry place. And when the Santa Ana winds would blow,
• 2:49
  Speaker 2: if something caught fire, it was a real problem. We
• 2:51
  Speaker 2: had known that forever. And when you see all these
• 2:57
  Speaker 2: people that are passing the buck and moving the blame
• 3:01
  Speaker 2: and then the fund when they had that big charity
• 3:08
  Speaker 2: thing for the fire and you found out that hundreds
• 3:12
  Speaker 2: of millions of dollars was raised you know if you're
• 3:16
  Speaker 2: you're looking at it in it like a rational person
• 3:20
  Speaker 2: a rational person would say oh this is great all
• 3:23
  Speaker 2: these people who lost their homes will have some funds
• 3:25
  Speaker 2: from this and they'll be able to rebuild and And
• 3:28
  Speaker 2: then you find out that the money was given to,
• 3:30
  Speaker 2: what was it, like 108 different NGOs?
• 3:33
  Speaker 1: 200 plus.
• 3:35
  Speaker 2: 200 plus, where that money got distributed to these organizations,
• 3:41
  Speaker 2: these supposed nonprofit organizations, and most of that money goes
• 3:45
  Speaker 2: to overhead. And almost nothing goes to the people who
• 3:50
  Speaker 2: lost their homes.
• 3:51
  Speaker 1: So to rewind, let's start with what we thought.
• 3:55
  Speaker 2: Right.
• 3:56
  Speaker 1: We were told— Climate change. And with the climate change,
• 3:59
  Speaker 1: because I've spent hours and hours arguing with people that
• 4:02
  Speaker 1: will argue with that. I go, OK, great. The climate changes. Right.
• 4:07
  Speaker 1: So we're aware of this dry weather. It hasn't rained.
• 4:11
  Speaker 1: So what should we actually be doing? Should we just say, oh,
• 4:14
  Speaker 1: everybody should burn alive and houses burn down or should we?
• 4:18
  Speaker 1: clear the dead brush? Should we pre-deploy? Should we make
• 4:21
  Speaker 1: sure that both reservoirs have water in it? So the
• 4:25
  Speaker 1: idea that climate change is the get out of jail,
• 4:28
  Speaker 1: burn everything down excuse, it doesn't even add up. So
• 4:31
  Speaker 1: we know that. So let's make a difference. And I
• 4:34
  Speaker 1: went and met with the chief of the U.S. Forest
• 4:38
  Speaker 1: Service and talked to him for a few hours. This guy,
• 4:39
  Speaker 1: Chief Garcia, he's one of the most famous fire chiefs
• 4:42
  Speaker 1: from the hot shots. And I quizzed him and he
• 4:45
  Speaker 1: told me, This was not a surprise. He said they
• 4:49
  Speaker 1: all have a map. I forget the name of this
• 4:52
  Speaker 1: map that it goes to all cities and emergency personnel.
• 4:56
  Speaker 1: They have photos. You look at him. He showed him
• 4:59
  Speaker 1: to me. Everything is bright red leading up to January 7th.
• 5:03
  Speaker 2: Bright red.
• 5:04
  Speaker 1: They knew this was coming to the point where Chief
• 5:06
  Speaker 1: Garcia had all of his firefighters on the tarmac, kitted up.
• 5:11
  Speaker 1: in their helicopters. He said his whole team was standing
• 5:14
  Speaker 1: by their computers because it was so obvious this fire
• 5:17
  Speaker 1: was coming based off of, if you want to say,
• 5:20
  Speaker 1: climate change, because it had not rained. It was record dry.
• 5:25
  Speaker 1: So this idea that they use that, it's just an excuse.
• 5:28
  Speaker 1: And then the big one that everyone falls for to
• 5:31
  Speaker 1: this day that is the best propaganda ever is hurricane winds.
• 5:36
  Speaker 1: We were told, you know, Newsom's doing the thing and
• 5:39
  Speaker 1: he's saying that, winds would come in, the hurricane, he
• 5:41
  Speaker 1: lit his hair on fire. There was no hurricane winds
• 5:44
  Speaker 1: in the Pacific Palisades. The max wind speed was 40
• 5:48
  Speaker 1: miles per hour. And for the first six hours, when
• 5:51
  Speaker 1: the helicopter is the initial attack, when you put out
• 5:54
  Speaker 1: the fire, it was max, I think, 27 miles per hour.
• 5:58
  Speaker 1: So they got everyone with it's unprecedented, it's hurricane winds,
• 6:03
  Speaker 1: it's climate change, no responsibilities. So now we go to
• 6:07
  Speaker 1: fire aid. This is This was another thing that just
• 6:11
  Speaker 1: woke me up to, you know, we always heard about
• 6:13
  Speaker 1: the homeless NGO scam and the homeless industrial complex, but
• 6:18
  Speaker 1: living as a fire victim and watching all these celebrities
• 6:22
  Speaker 1: go on stage. They actually took fire victims from Altadena
• 6:26
  Speaker 1: on stage whose houses burned down and they raised this
• 6:29
  Speaker 1: hundred million dollars. And as a victim, I'm thinking, okay,
• 6:32
  Speaker 1: you know, we're going to get a few thousand dollars.
• 6:34
  Speaker 1: That's nice. Or, you know, you break a hundred million up.
• 6:38
  Speaker 1: This should be, A grand, you know, even FEMA and
• 6:42
  Speaker 1: these places, when you get that thousand dollar check, it's helpful.
• 6:45
  Speaker 1: You're like, oh, I just lost everything. Every little thousand
• 6:48
  Speaker 1: adds up. So when that happened and nobody I know
• 6:53
  Speaker 1: anywhere got money and Sue Pascoe from Circling the News,
• 6:57
  Speaker 1: a local journalist whose house burnout, she spent months. investigating,
• 7:03
  Speaker 1: calling up every single NGO. Who did you give money to?
• 7:06
  Speaker 1: Which victim? Nobody got money. And even the law firm
• 7:11
  Speaker 1: that they hired to do the cover-up for the fire aid,
• 7:16
  Speaker 1: the law firm says in their own little three-page document
• 7:20
  Speaker 1: where they're defending fire aid, they say, several of the
• 7:24
  Speaker 1: money went directly to fire victims. Well, I Googled just
• 7:27
  Speaker 1: to see, because I know the definition of several. I
• 7:30
  Speaker 1: want to see what does Google say several is. It
• 7:32
  Speaker 1: was definitely under 10. So out of 200 plus NGOs,
• 7:37
  Speaker 1: their own lawyers are saying several gave to fire victims.
• 7:41
  Speaker 1: And then you look at the three that they named.
• 7:43
  Speaker 1: Like we gave gift cards to victims. Which victims? Which
• 7:48
  Speaker 1: you were just handing out if you were. But it
• 7:51
  Speaker 1: was that that woke me up to.
• 7:52
  Speaker 2: They just stole the money. Yeah.
• 7:54
  Speaker 1: And if they'll do that to people whose houses just
• 7:56
  Speaker 1: burned down. Of course they're going to do it to
• 7:59
  Speaker 1: our tax money with the homeless industrial zombie complex. So
• 8:03
  Speaker 1: that was a real wake-up that put me into, oh,
• 8:06
  Speaker 1: here's where the $ 25, $ 30 billion goes. It doesn't go
• 8:10
  Speaker 1: to solving anything or fixing it. It goes to scams.
• 8:15
  Speaker 2: Well, I don't think before Doge and before Elon started
• 8:18
  Speaker 2: investigating into a lot of these NGOs, I don't think
• 8:21
  Speaker 2: anybody was really aware or most people were not aware
• 8:24
  Speaker 2: of how this all works and how there's– a whole bureaucracy,
• 8:31
  Speaker 2: like a business that's set up where a bunch of
• 8:33
  Speaker 2: people get paid from this money to essentially make no
• 8:39
  Speaker 2: improvements whatsoever in whatever the problem is, whether it's homelessness.
• 8:42
  Speaker 2: The homelessness is one of the biggest ones in LA
• 8:44
  Speaker 2: because there was 24 plus billion dollars spent on homelessness.
• 8:50
  Speaker 2: And when people, when representatives have tried to do an
• 8:54
  Speaker 2: audit to find out where this money went, Newsom has
• 8:57
  Speaker 2: blocked it. He has vetoed this audit. So.
• 9:03
  Speaker 1: It's even worse in the sense that it's not going
• 9:05
  Speaker 1: to just their salaries. There's actual cases now with the
• 9:09
  Speaker 1: DOJ and the feds. They're arresting people who are just
• 9:11
  Speaker 1: stealing $ 30 million, $ 20 million, buying Bentleys, mansions in Brentwood.
• 9:17
  Speaker 1: So the idea that it's just going to salaries and
• 9:19
  Speaker 1: people are paying themselves out, that's one. But there's also
• 9:23
  Speaker 1: people just straight up stealing money. And you can't even
• 9:26
  Speaker 1: figure out how they steal it. For instance, this lovely
• 9:29
  Speaker 1: lady came on my podcast. And she created her own
• 9:33
  Speaker 1: charity type thing, the Integrity Project, to expose NGOs because
• 9:37
  Speaker 1: she lives in Westwood. And all of a sudden, one
• 9:39
  Speaker 1: day on her block in this, you know, she invested
• 9:42
  Speaker 1: with her husband, have a nice single family house on
• 9:44
  Speaker 1: this nice street in Westwood. And the old person home,
• 9:48
  Speaker 1: they're kicking all the senior citizens out. And she's like,
• 9:50
  Speaker 1: what's going on here? And the next thing you know,
• 9:53
  Speaker 1: the building's on the market for sale. And it's for
• 9:57
  Speaker 1: $ 11 million. Six days later, that building sells to a
• 10:02
  Speaker 1: developer for $ 27 million. Ends up this NGO, Weingart, who's
• 10:08
  Speaker 1: one of the top– I think they're at– maybe $ 100
• 10:11
  Speaker 1: million just this year. They haven't turned in their audit
• 10:14
  Speaker 1: to the feds. It's late right now. But for instance,
• 10:17
  Speaker 1: no one knows why it went from $ 11 million to
• 10:19
  Speaker 1: $ 27 million over the weekend in three days. So people
• 10:23
  Speaker 1: pocket that money. Here's the craziest part. Guess who? So
• 10:27
  Speaker 1: the grant, Weingart gets a grant from the city of
• 10:29
  Speaker 1: the state. Guess who owns that building? not the city
• 10:33
  Speaker 1: or the state, Weingart. So our tax money buys for
• 10:37
  Speaker 1: 20 extra million dollars of property to have it as
• 10:40
  Speaker 1: a homeless housing. Each of these beds, because I think
• 10:43
  Speaker 1: there's maybe only 70 beds in it, it's now six
• 10:46
  Speaker 1: years later approximately, totally not finished, not done, more you know, construction,
• 10:51
  Speaker 1: this or that, they still get paid as operators. So
• 10:55
  Speaker 1: these NGOs not only get the money for the grants
• 10:58
  Speaker 1: to buy the building, then they get like a million
• 11:00
  Speaker 1: dollars a year to be operators. And here's the best part.
• 11:03
  Speaker 1: There's no mandatory that they have to actually put a
• 11:06
  Speaker 1: body in the beds. So, you know, so the scam is,
• 11:11
  Speaker 1: like I keep saying, this is a cartel. This is mafia.
• 11:14
  Speaker 1: This is real mafia, criminal stuff going on. And the
• 11:19
  Speaker 1: problem is, so One thing I'm so excited to do
• 11:22
  Speaker 1: when I'm mayor and people in the comments section are like, oh,
• 11:25
  Speaker 1: he's so stupid. You can't do that. I've met with
• 11:27
  Speaker 1: the IRS criminal investigation team three times in L.A., twice
• 11:31
  Speaker 1: in Washington, D.C., and they are so excited for me
• 11:34
  Speaker 1: to be mayor because all they need is one document
• 11:37
  Speaker 1: from each of these NGOs and these grants and they
• 11:40
  Speaker 1: can open these investigations on fraud right now. They know
• 11:44
  Speaker 1: the fraud and the crimes are happening. But if the
• 11:47
  Speaker 1: city doesn't hand over the document and the NGO doesn't,
• 11:50
  Speaker 1: they say they can't just open up these cases without
• 11:52
  Speaker 1: that one document. So first week. So for the first
• 11:58
  Speaker 1: week as mayor, I'm bringing in the criminal investigation team.
• 12:01
  Speaker 1: Here's all the NGOs we're working with. I guarantee you
• 12:04
  Speaker 1: 95% of them already just call and they're like, oh,
• 12:07
  Speaker 1: Mayor Pratt, we're good. We're actually going to Seattle. We
• 12:10
  Speaker 1: don't want to work here. Once they know someone's coming
• 12:12
  Speaker 1: to stop the cookie jar stealing. And then when people
• 12:16
  Speaker 1: are like, oh, L.A. has no money. How are you
• 12:18
  Speaker 1: going to do all this stuff? L.A. has plenty of
• 12:20
  Speaker 1: money that we're just letting our tax money just be
• 12:22
  Speaker 1: stolen and And to increase a problem, homeless since our
• 12:27
  Speaker 1: current mayor, Karen Bass, has has joined the city power.
• 12:31
  Speaker 1: She's increased homeless. They reference numbers. They reference numbers. that
• 12:36
  Speaker 1: she'll be like, oh, we removed 1,500 people this year.
• 12:39
  Speaker 1: But she doesn't say, oh, 1,500 were removed into the
• 12:42
  Speaker 1: cemetery because they OD'd. Not to mention how much tax
• 12:46
  Speaker 1: money we're spending on just keeping zombies alive. I met
• 12:50
  Speaker 1: with firefighters a few days ago at the Hollywood station,
• 12:54
  Speaker 1: and they were telling me the amount of Narcan they
• 12:57
  Speaker 1: go through. So in one night, I talked to MacArthur Park,
• 13:03
  Speaker 1: Their fire station. He did 17 overdoses in one night.
• 13:07
  Speaker 1: So if they're not there, given the Narcon, the amount
• 13:12
  Speaker 1: of people dying is even more insane. Right now, six
• 13:15
  Speaker 1: people are dying a day in the street. And then
• 13:17
  Speaker 1: they say, oh, this is compassionate. These people have rights. No,
• 13:21
  Speaker 1: these people do not have rights to just die. We
• 13:23
  Speaker 1: need to protect people. These people as humans, and again,
• 13:27
  Speaker 1: that's why my whole thing is enforce the law. It
• 13:29
  Speaker 1: is illegal to just be doing fentanyl on the street.
• 13:32
  Speaker 1: So if we come in and we give you mandatory treatment,
• 13:36
  Speaker 1: not jail, if you're not, you know, some of these
• 13:38
  Speaker 1: people are just straight going to jail for animal abuse.
• 13:41
  Speaker 1: They're torturing animals all day long on Skid Row. The
• 13:45
  Speaker 1: videos that I get sent, once you see them, you
• 13:48
  Speaker 1: can't unsee them. Not to mention now I'm working with
• 13:50
  Speaker 1: all the rescue ones, the ones they text me and
• 13:53
  Speaker 1: And they're just like, Spencer, we have to stop this.
• 13:55
  Speaker 1: And the city knows. They call the cops all day long.
• 13:58
  Speaker 1: The cops come and they say, I mean, LAPD's hands
• 14:00
  Speaker 1: are tied. If the mayor and the city attorney, they
• 14:03
  Speaker 1: don't have like enforce the law, they just get away
• 14:07
  Speaker 1: with it. So we're in Mad Max life in Los Angeles.
• 14:11
  Speaker 1: And people like to say, oh, it's not this. I'm
• 14:15
  Speaker 1: from L.A. I've grown up and I keep saying I'm
• 14:17
  Speaker 1: fighting to get L.A. back to what I grew up.
• 14:21
  Speaker 1: It was beautiful. It's why I wanted to be on
• 14:23
  Speaker 1: a TV show and be famous and be part of Hollywood.
• 14:26
  Speaker 1: It was magical. Not even mention Hollywood is now gone.
• 14:29
  Speaker 1: The fact that Hollywood Boulevard... should be the greatest tourist
• 14:34
  Speaker 1: attraction in the world. You couldn't pay me right now
• 14:36
  Speaker 1: to go on Hollywood Boulevard, step on human feces, the
• 14:40
  Speaker 1: smell of pee, inhaling fent. They're just, everyone can just
• 14:43
  Speaker 1: smoke fentanyl on the streets now. It's psycho. So again,
• 14:47
  Speaker 1: why did I, once you start digging in and you
• 14:50
  Speaker 1: spend all your life now exposing this, because again, they
• 14:54
  Speaker 1: burn my house down. They burn my mom's house down.
• 14:57
  Speaker 1: I have to, they put me in the game. And
• 15:00
  Speaker 1: once you, the bubbles gone, I just, all I have
• 15:03
  Speaker 1: is this energy to stop this. Not to mention now
• 15:06
  Speaker 1: the amount of thousands of messages I get every day
• 15:09
  Speaker 1: from every part of the city sending me photos. There's
• 15:13
  Speaker 1: parents that when they drive to school, all across the city,
• 15:17
  Speaker 1: this is not just one unique area, they have to
• 15:19
  Speaker 1: have their kids in the backseat staring at an iPad
• 15:21
  Speaker 1: not to look out the window because meth addicts will
• 15:24
  Speaker 1: just be having sex on the side of the street.
• 15:27
  Speaker 1: There's just naked people everywhere now. And when I say people,
• 15:30
  Speaker 1: naked zombies. And the DEA will tell you 90% of
• 15:34
  Speaker 1: these homeless people have a drug problem. We have a
• 15:37
  Speaker 1: drug addict problem. These aren't people that just like missed
• 15:40
  Speaker 1: a paycheck and we need to get them help and
• 15:43
  Speaker 1: get back. This is a drug problem that needs mandatory treatment,
• 15:46
  Speaker 1: not handing people needles and pipes and saying, oh, here's
• 15:50
  Speaker 1: a million dollar bed. If you're a fentanyl zombie hanging
• 15:53
  Speaker 1: upside down, you don't care about a million dollar empty
• 15:56
  Speaker 1: bed because you're just high. You sober up and you
• 15:59
  Speaker 1: go get high again. But what were we talking about?
• 16:02
  Speaker 1: Got me pumped up. Got me pumped up. It's good.
• 16:04
  Speaker 2: It's good to be pumped up. I mean there's no
• 16:06
  Speaker 2: other explanation other than extensive fraud. There's no way they
• 16:09
  Speaker 2: could be getting that much money from our taxes and
• 16:12
  Speaker 2: have this big of a problem with crime and with homelessness.
• 16:16
  Speaker 2: And it's almost like they want everybody to feel helpless.
• 16:20
  Speaker 2: They want you to feel like there's nothing you can
• 16:23
  Speaker 2: do so that it justifies throwing more money at the problem.
• 16:26
  Speaker 2: Pull that article up again. So– So here it is.
• 16:31
  Speaker 2: This is an LAist. Homelessness deal now under federal investigation.
• 16:37
  Speaker 2: So even in LA's famously overheated real estate market, the
• 16:40
  Speaker 2: profit and quick turnaround on senior housing complex. And what's
• 16:45
  Speaker 2: that word? Cheviot? Cheviot? How do you say that word?
• 16:48
  Speaker 1: Cheviot Hills.
• 16:48
  Speaker 2: Cheviot Hills. Do you know where that is? Neighborhood seems extraordinary.
• 16:52
  Speaker 2: Man at the center of the deal since identified by
• 16:54
  Speaker 2: federal prosecutors as Brentwood landlord and developer Stephen Taylor. Bought
• 16:59
  Speaker 2: the property on Shelby Drive in 2023 for $ 11. 2 million.
• 17:03
  Speaker 2: Purchase record shows. Okay, so this is exactly what you're
• 17:08
  Speaker 2: talking about. $ 27. 3 million to pay for that acquisition came
• 17:12
  Speaker 2: from taxpayer grant funds authorized by Citi. and state officials,
• 17:16
  Speaker 2: according to grant documentations, L.A. Mayor Karen Bass and Governor
• 17:21
  Speaker 2: Newsom touted the purchase as a key tool in the
• 17:25
  Speaker 2: fight against homelessness, the fight against homelessness that they're losing.
• 17:29
  Speaker 2: The deal called for Taylor's involvement to be kept secret,
• 17:32
  Speaker 2: according to a confidentiality clause included in the purchase contract
• 17:37
  Speaker 2: obtained through a public records request that changed last month
• 17:40
  Speaker 2: when federal authorities announced criminal charges against Taylor. He's accused
• 17:44
  Speaker 2: of submitting fraudulent documents to borrow money for private lender
• 17:48
  Speaker 2: from private lenders when he bought this and or and
• 17:51
  Speaker 2: other properties. So news conference regions top federal prosecutor Bill
• 17:59
  Speaker 2: Saley said the investigation is ongoing. Taylor was arrested in
• 18:04
  Speaker 2: August when the case was under seal and pleaded not guilty.
• 18:07
  Speaker 2: Court records show the first of the two known criminal
• 18:10
  Speaker 2: cases brought so far by the federal task force. Assailee
• 18:14
  Speaker 2: assembled in April to investigate fraud and corruption around the
• 18:17
  Speaker 2: use of billions of dollars earmarked to combat homelessness in
• 18:20
  Speaker 2: Southern California. These people are just buccaneers. They're just buccaneers.
• 18:24
  Speaker 2: This is just a gigantic criminal enterprise that exists under
• 18:30
  Speaker 2: this guise of, you know, being kind.
• 18:35
  Speaker 1: So that case only exists because of that mom, Samantha.
• 18:40
  Speaker 1: Spent did seven thousand five hundred of her own public
• 18:43
  Speaker 1: records requests on that senior citizen home that and then
• 18:47
  Speaker 1: the FBI came. She started posting an FBI, knocked on
• 18:50
  Speaker 1: her door and said, can we meet with you? And
• 18:52
  Speaker 1: she gave them all of her files. So it's back
• 18:54
  Speaker 1: to what I was saying. The feds wouldn't even got
• 18:56
  Speaker 1: that story. If this woman, Samantha, from the integrity project,
• 19:00
  Speaker 1: didn't do 7000 public records requests and build this case
• 19:04
  Speaker 1: on her own because she was what's going on in
• 19:07
  Speaker 1: my next door neighbor.
• 19:08

• 20:23
  Speaker 1: That's $ 30 million of $ 25- plus million.
• 20:27
  Speaker 2: So this is an extensive, coordinated effort. to, to siphon money.
• 20:34
  Speaker 1: 100%. And again, there's plenty of money to stop homelessness.
• 20:38
  Speaker 1: Karen Bass will tell you, let's use her low number
• 20:41
  Speaker 1: and made up number. They go around and they count.
• 20:44
  Speaker 1: They drive. There's a real thing. They drive around and
• 20:45
  Speaker 1: they do the homeless count. You can volunteer and you
• 20:48
  Speaker 1: just count like, Oh, one, two. So that's how they
• 20:50
  Speaker 1: do it. Yes. They just had a count recently. So
• 20:52
  Speaker 1: the count supposedly is, let's say 45,000. The Rand corporation
• 20:58
  Speaker 1: will say that count is 30% low. I'll say that
• 21:01
  Speaker 1: counts 100% low. But even so, let's say there's 100,000
• 21:05
  Speaker 1: homeless people in Los Angeles, $ 20 billion. Okay, that's California.
• 21:11
  Speaker 1: Let's bring it down to in the last year to
• 21:13
  Speaker 1: a couple billion dollars. We can't get people off the
• 21:17
  Speaker 1: street with that much money. Just today, this DSA city
• 21:22
  Speaker 1: council member was doing a video. She's bragging about, oh,
• 21:24
  Speaker 1: I just secured $ 16 million grant. I love how they
• 21:27
  Speaker 1: use the grant. I just got $ 16 million more of
• 21:30
  Speaker 1: our tax money. And she is putting in little tiny
• 21:33
  Speaker 1: homes next to somebody, like just next to a normal
• 21:36
  Speaker 1: street where, again, this shouldn't be where that is. And
• 21:39
  Speaker 1: it's housing approximately, let's say, 60 people or whatever. It
• 21:43
  Speaker 1: was a quarter million dollars per person that they're bragging about.
• 21:46
  Speaker 2: $ 250, 000 a person.
• 21:50
  Speaker 1: Can get anybody sober, a nice little condo or apartment
• 21:55
  Speaker 1: for a year, potentially whatever job tools you need. So
• 21:59
  Speaker 1: this idea that takes a quarter million dollars to put
• 22:02
  Speaker 1: a tiny, it's everyone's getting a cut. It's like, again,
• 22:06
  Speaker 1: it's like the mafia.
• 22:07
  Speaker 2: So there's a bunch of things going on. There's a
• 22:09
  Speaker 2: bunch of employees that are getting paid. So, and getting
• 22:14
  Speaker 2: paid substantial amounts of money. You know, my friend Coleon
• 22:16
  Speaker 2: Noir found this out about San Francisco. So he went
• 22:19
  Speaker 2: up to San Francisco and He saw this homelessness and
• 22:21
  Speaker 2: he's a lawyer, but he's also he doesn't know what's
• 22:24
  Speaker 2: going on over there. He's like, wow, what's going on?
• 22:26
  Speaker 2: Do they need more money? He's like, no, no, no, no, no, no.
• 22:29
  Speaker 2: What's going on is they're actually incentivized to have more
• 22:33
  Speaker 2: homeless people because the more homeless people, the bigger the
• 22:36
  Speaker 2: bureaucracy grows. the bigger you can have your homeless foundation,
• 22:40
  Speaker 2: your homeless task force, whatever it is. And these people
• 22:43
  Speaker 2: are making quarter million dollars a year plus, which is insane.
• 22:47
  Speaker 2: And he showed the list of the salaries of all
• 22:49
  Speaker 2: these people. Like, how are you getting paid when the
• 22:51
  Speaker 2: problem keeps getting worse? And all you're doing is hiring
• 22:55
  Speaker 2: more people and they're getting paid more money and more
• 22:59
  Speaker 2: projects and more grants and more homelessness. And it's not
• 23:03
  Speaker 2: getting any better, but the money keeps coming in. So
• 23:06
  Speaker 2: you're incentivized to keep the problem.
• 23:08
  Speaker 1: And increase it. Yes.
• 23:10
  Speaker 2: More money.
• 23:11
  Speaker 1: It's a business.
• 23:11
  Speaker 2: Right.
• 23:12
  Speaker 1: And people always talk– I grew up and I was
• 23:15
  Speaker 1: well aware of the military-industrial complex. But even with that,
• 23:18
  Speaker 1: they track the bombs and the fighter jets. This– it's
• 23:23
  Speaker 1: even crazier because there's no– I think we serve. They
• 23:27
  Speaker 1: use the word serve and cared for. They don't track results.
• 23:31
  Speaker 1: They say, oh, we house 1,400 people for a night,
• 23:35
  Speaker 1: two nights. It's not like we're getting– people have bracelets
• 23:38
  Speaker 1: and we're tracking them and they're getting air tags. We
• 23:41
  Speaker 1: have no idea what's going on. So again– I keep saying,
• 23:45
  Speaker 1: as mayor, I'll enforce the laws because you cannot be
• 23:49
  Speaker 1: a crazed drug addict zombie just running amok naked on
• 23:53
  Speaker 1: the street. That is why, thank God, our amazing Democrats
• 23:57
  Speaker 1: in California made this year SB 43. And that means
• 24:02
  Speaker 1: if you can't manage your own mental state, you can
• 24:05
  Speaker 1: come in and have a hold, a psych hold for
• 24:07
  Speaker 1: 72 hours. And if it seems like, oh, this person
• 24:10
  Speaker 1: needs real treatment, It can go to 45 days and
• 24:13
  Speaker 1: then it can go up to a year conservatorship. And
• 24:16
  Speaker 1: as mayor, what I keep telling people is once you
• 24:19
  Speaker 1: start enforcing the law, first off, people who just want
• 24:22
  Speaker 1: to do drugs and live on the streets, they will
• 24:24
  Speaker 1: leave L.A. because they'll see, oh, this mayor is not
• 24:27
  Speaker 1: playing around. we need to go somewhere else or they're
• 24:31
  Speaker 1: so crazy and we're going to help them get medical
• 24:34
  Speaker 1: treatment or they're one of these dog abusing type people.
• 24:37
  Speaker 1: And I'm going to put them under the jail to
• 24:39
  Speaker 1: the point where once they get from under the jail, somehow,
• 24:42
  Speaker 1: if they ever get out, they will never come back
• 24:45
  Speaker 1: to LA because now they're been under the jail and
• 24:47
  Speaker 1: they're going to go under two times more until they
• 24:49
  Speaker 1: end up in prison because they're If you abuse animals
• 24:52
  Speaker 1: once again, once you see what I've seen, we're talking
• 24:55
  Speaker 1: they're stapling dogs, eyes closed. I mean, yeah, it's it's
• 25:00
  Speaker 1: it's insane. The shelters alone where it's the city is
• 25:04
  Speaker 1: doing mass murder because they're not giving these people enough funding.
• 25:08
  Speaker 1: And I'm convinced now they must make money off of euthanizing.
• 25:13
  Speaker 1: So there's the street. issue with the zombies abusing dogs
• 25:17
  Speaker 1: and then the city just mass murdering dogs because they're
• 25:21
  Speaker 1: not getting the proper funding and facilities and they're not
• 25:25
  Speaker 1: spaying and neutering and enforcing all the laws to keep
• 25:29
  Speaker 1: street breeders from just flooding the streets with the dogs.
• 25:32
  Speaker 1: So back to you enforce the law and this isn't impossible.
• 25:37
  Speaker 1: I've met with a lot of people that have real
• 25:39
  Speaker 1: estate in Los Angeles and they have real estate in
• 25:41
  Speaker 1: San Francisco. And Mayor Lurie came in and he started
• 25:45
  Speaker 1: enforcing the law and just saying, you can't do this.
• 25:47
  Speaker 1: And he has cleaned up the city pretty well. You know,
• 25:51
  Speaker 1: there's obviously people that say he's not doing enough. And again,
• 25:53
  Speaker 1: I'm sorry, what city is this? San Francisco.
• 25:55
  Speaker 2: San Francisco.
• 25:56
  Speaker 1: And so he took the call from the feds and
• 25:59
  Speaker 1: he said, I'm going to do this. And he's doing
• 26:01
  Speaker 1: a solid job. Again, I'm going whole next level because
• 26:04
  Speaker 1: I'm not concerned about optics. I'm not concerned about, oh,
• 26:08
  Speaker 1: Spencer's doing this. He's so mean. No, what's mean is
• 26:11
  Speaker 1: letting people live on the street in human poop. and
• 26:14
  Speaker 1: dying on the street. And these people I run against,
• 26:16
  Speaker 1: they're all the same. They go, oh, we need more housing.
• 26:19
  Speaker 1: We need more affordable housing. We need more beds. This
• 26:21
  Speaker 1: isn't working. They just keep doubling down.
• 26:24
  Speaker 2: Well, that's a false narrative. Everybody knows it's not a
• 26:26
  Speaker 2: housing problem. That's not what it is. It's a drug
• 26:29
  Speaker 2: abuse and mental health problem. That's all it is. It's
• 26:32
  Speaker 2: not a housing problem. That's a flat out lie. And
• 26:35
  Speaker 2: anybody who says that should be shamed when they say
• 26:38
  Speaker 2: we need more affordable housing. Well, you're fucking lying. And
• 26:41
  Speaker 2: you're part of the problem. If you're saying it's just
• 26:43
  Speaker 2: an affordable housing problem, that means either you are a
• 26:47
  Speaker 2: part of the propaganda narrative and you've been told to
• 26:50
  Speaker 2: say this or you're in on it.
• 26:51
  Speaker 1: 100%. That's it.
• 26:53
  Speaker 2: At this point, it's fucking nuts.
• 26:57
  Speaker 1: Skid Row is 50 blocks. It can't even be called
• 27:00
  Speaker 1: Skid Row anymore. It's called Los Angeles.
• 27:03
  Speaker 2: Every community.
• 27:04
  Speaker 1: Before my house burned down in the Palisades, my wife
• 27:07
  Speaker 1: was ready to move because every morning in front of
• 27:09
  Speaker 1: Palisades Elementary— that then burned down and across the street
• 27:12
  Speaker 1: at my son's preschool at Methodist, there was a lady
• 27:16
  Speaker 1: cleaning her private parts in front of kids at 745
• 27:19
  Speaker 1: in the morning. You call LAPD, they pull up and
• 27:22
  Speaker 1: they go, you don't know her because they can't enforce law.
• 27:26
  Speaker 1: She'd go around the corner and she'd go number two
• 27:29
  Speaker 1: in front of Joe's barbershop. I would know because I
• 27:32
  Speaker 1: had to step over the number two because I'd always
• 27:34
  Speaker 1: park right near Joe's Barbershop. So it's not Skid Row.
• 27:37
  Speaker 2: It's everywhere. So the police are told not to do
• 27:40
  Speaker 2: anything about it. Is that what it is?
• 27:43
  Speaker 1: If you don't enforce the law, what are they going
• 27:45
  Speaker 1: to do? Right.
• 27:46
  Speaker 2: So this comes down from the mayor.
• 27:48
  Speaker 1: Of course. And then the mayor and the city attorney,
• 27:51
  Speaker 1: if the mayor is not telling the city attorney to
• 27:53
  Speaker 1: prosecute all his misdemeanors, put these people in mandatory hold.
• 27:57
  Speaker 1: If you're cleaning your private parts in front of kids
• 27:59
  Speaker 1: and you're a normal citizen, you are going to jail.
• 28:03
  Speaker 1: You're going to be on the citizens app as a
• 28:05
  Speaker 1: sex offender. But the consequences for zombie people are. They
• 28:10
  Speaker 1: don't have them.
• 28:11
  Speaker 2: That's crazy.
• 28:12
  Speaker 1: It's not fair for all the normal taxpaying people in
• 28:15
  Speaker 1: Los Angeles that we have to abide by laws. And
• 28:18
  Speaker 1: then there's a whole class is like it's like anarchy.
• 28:21
  Speaker 1: It's like it's psycho.
• 28:23
  Speaker 2: It's so weird to see, you know, because I lived
• 28:27
  Speaker 2: in L.A. for so long. And when I first moved
• 28:29
  Speaker 2: there in the 90s, there was nothing like this. It
• 28:32
  Speaker 2: was it was nice. You know, I mean, it was
• 28:35
  Speaker 2: a lot of traffic, but that was it. There was
• 28:36
  Speaker 2: some crime, but it wasn't that bad. And everything just
• 28:40
  Speaker 2: keeps getting worse and worse and worse. And it didn't
• 28:43
  Speaker 2: seem really bad until, well, Skid Row was always bad.
• 28:48
  Speaker 2: And Skid Row was bad on purpose. So for people
• 28:51
  Speaker 2: that don't know, and we looked into this because I
• 28:55
  Speaker 2: found out about Skid Row. I knew it existed, but
• 28:58
  Speaker 2: I found out about it when we were filming Fear Factor.
• 29:00
  Speaker 2: So one day, because we filmed a lot in downtown
• 29:03
  Speaker 2: LA and a lot of these abandoned warehouses and buildings.
• 29:05
  Speaker 2: And we were in one of these warehouses and we
• 29:09
  Speaker 2: left the set and I drove home and I took
• 29:11
  Speaker 2: a wrong turn. And I went down near the outskirts
• 29:16
  Speaker 2: of Skid Row. And it's hard to believe that it's
• 29:21
  Speaker 2: real if you haven't seen it. When you're talking just
• 29:24
  Speaker 2: blocks and blocks and blocks where there's nothing but homeless people.
• 29:30
  Speaker 2: Just people on the streets, camped out, wandering through the streets.
• 29:33
  Speaker 2: There's no cars driving whatsoever. Garbage everywhere. And the idea
• 29:38
  Speaker 2: that that's never been cleaned. up is fucking insane. So
• 29:42
  Speaker 2: what we found out is that that was an area
• 29:44
  Speaker 2: a long time ago where they started moving people. I
• 29:47
  Speaker 2: don't know when was this. This was the Jerome Hotel, right?
• 29:50
  Speaker 2: That's what we talked about? That's what it was. So
• 29:54
  Speaker 2: there was a documentary on the Jerome Hotel. And when
• 29:57
  Speaker 2: we Looked into it. It turns out that what they
• 30:00
  Speaker 2: would do is they would find vagrants, which is the
• 30:03
  Speaker 2: old school term for it. And they would find them
• 30:05
  Speaker 2: in Beverly Hills or Hollywood and they would just move
• 30:09
  Speaker 2: them to downtown L.A. to Skid Row and leave them
• 30:12
  Speaker 2: there and keep them there. The idea was to keep
• 30:15
  Speaker 2: them there. They had food there for them. They had kitchens.
• 30:18
  Speaker 2: They let them camp out on the street. Just stay here.
• 30:21
  Speaker 2: And it ruined all– Cecil, the Cecil Hotel. That's right.
• 30:24
  Speaker 2: So this is where they– so Cecil Hotel was like
• 30:28
  Speaker 2: this beautiful hotel that existed in downtown LA. And now
• 30:31
  Speaker 2: it's just like it's in Zombieland. And the whole area
• 30:35
  Speaker 2: is filled with fucking just everything around it is homeless.
• 30:40
  Speaker 2: The sheer volume of it is impossible to describe unless
• 30:44
  Speaker 2: you go there and see it. And the fact that
• 30:46
  Speaker 2: that's never been addressed, that no one does anything about it,
• 30:49
  Speaker 2: and it's gotten to 50 entire blocks of nothing but
• 30:54
  Speaker 2: homeless people. No businesses, no nothing. Nothing's functioning. It's all
• 30:58
  Speaker 2: just taken over by zombies.
• 31:00
  Speaker 1: I went to USC and I lived in a loft
• 31:03
  Speaker 1: on Skid Row at the top of the old bank district.
• 31:05
  Speaker 1: So in 2003, that was my street that I would
• 31:09
  Speaker 1: pull in and park. Very good deal. That's why I
• 31:12
  Speaker 1: was like, this is, I got an entire penthouse. Why,
• 31:14
  Speaker 1: you know, I didn't get, you know, at 20, why
• 31:16
  Speaker 1: it was so cheap. But so I've seen the progression
• 31:21
  Speaker 1: to the point where it's insane. And again, This is fixable.
• 31:26
  Speaker 1: There's so much money. We're already paying for it.
• 31:28
  Speaker 2: Right.
• 31:29
  Speaker 1: These people in charge don't want to fix it. It's clear.
• 31:32
  Speaker 2: Right.
• 31:32
  Speaker 1: And they'll continue doubling down. They need somebody to come
• 31:35
  Speaker 1: and say, oh, we're done with this. And that's why
• 31:38
  Speaker 1: I'm excited to actually be a mayor that's in these streets.
• 31:42
  Speaker 1: And here's what they keep saying. Oh, you can't do
• 31:44
  Speaker 1: this because the city council, they're all in on it.
• 31:46
  Speaker 1: You know, 90 percent of them because they have four
• 31:48
  Speaker 1: of these socialists. DSA members on the city council that
• 31:53
  Speaker 1: actually want to destroy our way of life in Los Angeles.
• 31:55
  Speaker 2: Why do you think they want to do that?
• 31:58
  Speaker 1: Because they're socialists. Go on the DSA Democratic Socialists of
• 32:01
  Speaker 1: America's website and They're not Democrats. They hate Democrats. They
• 32:05
  Speaker 1: use the word to hide their true agenda of socialism.
• 32:09
  Speaker 1: So they want to keep taking as much of our
• 32:12
  Speaker 1: tax money. And exactly the main lady I was talking
• 32:15
  Speaker 1: about that 60 million. She's one of these DSA people.
• 32:17
  Speaker 1: She's bragging about taking 16 million dollars of our tax
• 32:20
  Speaker 1: money to give Republicans. 40 plus people or 50 people, 250,000
• 32:24
  Speaker 1: each to live in a tiny home. That is not
• 32:27
  Speaker 1: a working solution. We need to have a plan to
• 32:30
  Speaker 1: get these people back into society, not bankroll an entire
• 32:35
  Speaker 1: existence of Los Angeles where we're like, oh, you can
• 32:37
  Speaker 1: just be a drug addict and we're going to pay
• 32:40
  Speaker 1: for you because.
• 32:40
  Speaker 2: Yeah, this is the problem with that narrative that the
• 32:43
  Speaker 2: rich people aren't paying enough. And this is one of
• 32:45
  Speaker 2: the things that I've seen progressive podcasters talk about the
• 32:48
  Speaker 2: wealth tax. And they were talking about imposing a wealth
• 32:51
  Speaker 2: tax on billionaires. And they're like, stop being greedy. Pay
• 32:54
  Speaker 2: your fair share. Like what is your fair share and
• 32:57
  Speaker 2: where is it going? Like if you could show me
• 33:00
  Speaker 2: that an increase in taxes would fix all the problems–
• 33:03
  Speaker 2: I said this when I lived there. I wouldn't mind
• 33:05
  Speaker 2: paying more taxes if they fixed everything. But it doesn't
• 33:08
  Speaker 2: seem like it fixes anything. Not one thing gets fixed
• 33:12
  Speaker 2: and they keep asking for more money, which is crazy.
• 33:16
  Speaker 2: The solution is cut it all off. One of the
• 33:20
  Speaker 2: things that Texas has, no state taxes. There's no state taxes.
• 33:25
  Speaker 2: You don't pay state taxes in Texas. In California, you
• 33:29
  Speaker 2: pay 14%. So they're incentivized to take that money and
• 33:34
  Speaker 2: do with it whatever they want. And so the more
• 33:37
  Speaker 2: they can come up with, like building tiny homes or
• 33:40
  Speaker 2: whatever the fuck it is, it's just incentives for them
• 33:44
  Speaker 2: to siphon money.
• 33:46
  Speaker 1: And again, as mayor, I want to have full accountability
• 33:49
  Speaker 1: and transparency where that's what everybody that's paying. There's a
• 33:53
  Speaker 1: lot of good people that are fine with paying as
• 33:56
  Speaker 1: much tax as they want if you're helping people get
• 33:58
  Speaker 1: off the street, if the lights work, if the streets work.
• 34:01
  Speaker 1: If there's less crime, if it's safe, if it's nice,
• 34:03
  Speaker 1: if it's clean, safe. So we need to track every
• 34:06
  Speaker 1: single dollar and make sure that there's no waste and abuse.
• 34:10
  Speaker 1: And with that type of live dashboard, not track it
• 34:12
  Speaker 1: with these weird data. I'm talking anyone can understand this
• 34:16
  Speaker 1: money goes here. And we're talking real accounting. They don't
• 34:20
  Speaker 1: want to do this because everyone's eating. Everyone's getting a cut.
• 34:24
  Speaker 1: All these people are living off of the scam. So
• 34:28
  Speaker 1: you need to come in and really just say no
• 34:30
  Speaker 1: more of this.
• 34:31
  Speaker 2: So let's talk real world practical applications. So you get
• 34:36
  Speaker 2: into office. Now you have all these council members that
• 34:39
  Speaker 2: these Democratic Socialist people. How do you handle that? What
• 34:42
  Speaker 2: do you do? How do you keep them from blocking
• 34:44
  Speaker 2: all these things you're trying to do?
• 34:46
  Speaker 1: So that is what excites me, because there's never been
• 34:50
  Speaker 1: a mayor that comes in and literally goes to each
• 34:55
  Speaker 1: of their constituents of these districts. For instance, this DSA
• 34:58
  Speaker 1: member wants to keep giving the fentanyl needles and the
• 35:01
  Speaker 1: pipes to Then I go to that district. I have
• 35:04
  Speaker 1: a press conference. I bring everybody. I say this so-and-so
• 35:07
  Speaker 1: wants to keep these zombies going number two and having
• 35:11
  Speaker 1: sex in front of your kids and put the heat
• 35:14
  Speaker 1: on the city council members. Right now, they care about
• 35:16
  Speaker 1: their jobs. They get $ 238, 000 a year salary. They get
• 35:22
  Speaker 1: not even including their entourage. Then they get our grants
• 35:25
  Speaker 1: and our tax money for all their little scams they're running.
• 35:28
  Speaker 1: So they actually want those jobs. If a mayor comes
• 35:31
  Speaker 1: in and is like, oh, I'm going to put the
• 35:33
  Speaker 1: heat on each one of you. Because right now, the mayor,
• 35:37
  Speaker 1: Karen Bass, isn't calling out each district and their failures.
• 35:41
  Speaker 1: The constituents, the taxpayers need help. Somebody to come in
• 35:46
  Speaker 1: and expose each of these districts and go into their
• 35:49
  Speaker 1: communities and be like, this is what you're voting for.
• 35:51
  Speaker 1: So at least at the next election, they're out. So
• 35:54
  Speaker 1: then once they start feeling the pressure, somebody on their neck,
• 35:57
  Speaker 1: they're going to start like, oh, I don't want I
• 35:59
  Speaker 1: want to keep my job. I like this power.
• 36:01
  Speaker 2: But there's been a concerted effort to put those people
• 36:03
  Speaker 2: in the government. Right. And, you know, a lot of
• 36:05
  Speaker 2: people point to George Soros and he's one of them.
• 36:08
  Speaker 2: And his Open Society Foundation is one of the people
• 36:10
  Speaker 2: that likes to do that, particularly for very progressive prosecutors
• 36:14
  Speaker 2: and DAs. But there's more than just him. There's a
• 36:19
  Speaker 2: whole machine behind it. And this is what I don't understand.
• 36:22
  Speaker 2: Because if you wanted to destroy a city, if you
• 36:25
  Speaker 2: wanted to destroy society, you would do it exactly the
• 36:27
  Speaker 2: way they're doing it. So what is their incentive and
• 36:30
  Speaker 2: why are they doing it this way?
• 36:32
  Speaker 1: Well, they want to destroy it to then rebuild it
• 36:34
  Speaker 1: in their vision. The second my town burned down and
• 36:37
  Speaker 1: it's all dirt, who's coming in with the ideas? Oh,
• 36:40
  Speaker 1: we got 100 million for affordable housing. We're going to
• 36:43
  Speaker 1: do this. They have a plan. They have a vision
• 36:46
  Speaker 1: that's not going to work, but they have their utopia planned.
• 36:50
  Speaker 1: That they would love to then rebuild.
• 36:51
  Speaker 2: How do you say it's not going to work? What's
• 36:53
  Speaker 2: going to stop them from doing that?
• 36:54
  Speaker 1: Because socialism has failed everywhere.
• 36:56
  Speaker 2: It's certainly going to fail. But what's to stop them
• 36:59
  Speaker 2: from ruining the Palisades?
• 37:02
  Speaker 1: Well, I did. I stopped them. They can say that
• 37:05
  Speaker 1: SB 79 or whatever their housing thing was never going
• 37:09
  Speaker 1: to apply to Palisades. But after me attacking it all
• 37:13
  Speaker 1: day for weeks, they added like 13 notes and made
• 37:18
  Speaker 1: the Palisades a fire hazard area where you couldn't build
• 37:22
  Speaker 1: high density. Because what they do, there's a new state
• 37:25
  Speaker 1: law that just got passed. And if you're, again, these
• 37:28
  Speaker 1: aren't exact, all the YIMBYs are going to go nuts.
• 37:30
  Speaker 1: I'm saying it wrong.
• 37:31
  Speaker 2: What's a YIMBY?
• 37:33
  Speaker 1: Your something about your backyard now my who knows i
• 37:37
  Speaker 1: don't you know there i have to block them usually
• 37:40
  Speaker 1: on social media but i they have a vision that
• 37:44
  Speaker 1: everything in california and los angeles should be high density
• 37:48
  Speaker 1: how then we need to build these seven nine-story structures
• 37:52
  Speaker 1: to have more affordable housing so they want to get
• 37:54
  Speaker 1: rid of single-family homes and put seven story buildings on.
• 37:59
  Speaker 1: So the NIMBYs not in, not in my backyard, they,
• 38:02
  Speaker 1: they fight these people on, on X. So, you know,
• 38:06
  Speaker 1: to be honest, I'm not either of them. They try to,
• 38:08
  Speaker 1: I'm fine with more housing, but I also want people
• 38:12
  Speaker 1: to have single family homes. And I think the fact
• 38:14
  Speaker 1: that we lost the idea where we can't fight for the,
• 38:18
  Speaker 1: the California dream to have a front yard with grass
• 38:21
  Speaker 1: and it's gotten so expensive and impossible. That should be
• 38:24
  Speaker 1: the problem. Not that, oh, we've given up. Nobody should
• 38:27
  Speaker 1: ever get that. We need to build these seven story
• 38:30
  Speaker 1: prison like structures and give anyone who can't afford just
• 38:33
  Speaker 1: a box to live in. Let's fight to get the
• 38:35
  Speaker 1: California where people had a front yard and grass.
• 38:39
  Speaker 2: It's also insane to try to do that with the
• 38:41
  Speaker 2: Palisades because the Palisades has always been a wealthy neighborhood
• 38:44
  Speaker 2: where people with a lot of money spent a lot
• 38:46
  Speaker 2: of money and also paid a lot of money in
• 38:49
  Speaker 2: taxes and had these beautiful homes. And the idea that
• 38:53
  Speaker 2: you're going to take that over with low-income housing, well,
• 38:57
  Speaker 2: those people are going to move out of there. And
• 38:58
  Speaker 2: there goes the tax money from those people. Not only that,
• 39:01
  Speaker 2: those people lost their homes. Their homes were taken from
• 39:04
  Speaker 2: them by the fire. And that's not fair. It's not
• 39:07
  Speaker 2: fair at all that you would just do that. It
• 39:10
  Speaker 2: doesn't make any sense.
• 39:11
  Speaker 1: I like to use the word stolen. The houses were
• 39:14
  Speaker 1: stolen from all these people. A misconception, though, because I'm
• 39:17
  Speaker 1: from the Palisades and I grew up– the Palisades just
• 39:20
  Speaker 1: became this wealthier, famous people in the last, let's say,
• 39:25
  Speaker 1: 10 years. But growing up– That's it?
• 39:27
  Speaker 2: Really? Yeah. 10 years?
• 39:29
  Speaker 1: We're talking big, you know, $ 40 million type. big houses.
• 39:36
  Speaker 2: Like when I grew up, it was always like that.
• 39:39
  Speaker 1: It was nice, but you know, lawyers and doctor, you know,
• 39:43
  Speaker 1: not Silicon Valley and movies, you know, hardworking people pass
• 39:48
  Speaker 1: these houses down generation. So there were nice houses, but
• 39:52
  Speaker 1: you know, your great grandfather probably passed the house down.
• 39:55
  Speaker 1: And you know, my dad's a dentist. He came in,
• 39:58
  Speaker 1: he was a surfing dentist and was able to get
• 40:00
  Speaker 1: a house in the Palisades.
• 40:01
  Speaker 2: And it's a beautiful area. It's gorgeous area. Amazing weather.
• 40:06
  Speaker 2: And the people should know that an area bigger than
• 40:10
  Speaker 2: the size of Manhattan burnt to the ground.
• 40:13
  Speaker 1: So let's go back. Let's do the fire because that's
• 40:16
  Speaker 1: a great– we haven't even– we just touched on it.
• 40:18
  Speaker 1: But nobody has really talked about what happened, how this
• 40:21
  Speaker 1: fire started, why we're on the fire. So people think
• 40:24
  Speaker 1: about the Palisades fire and they go, oh, January 7th. Well,
• 40:28
  Speaker 1: what happened? The fire for January 7th actually started on
• 40:31
  Speaker 1: New Year's Eve. So there's a case right now. It's
• 40:34
  Speaker 1: kind of fallen through the cracks. It may not go forward.
• 40:37
  Speaker 1: There's arson cases. Supposedly, allegedly, this guy lit a fire
• 40:42
  Speaker 1: at New Year's Eve with a lighter or a cigarette,
• 40:44
  Speaker 1: and there was an eight-acre fire. Now, according to witness testimony,
• 40:48
  Speaker 1: there's about 30 people that saw fireworks go into this
• 40:52
  Speaker 1: site called Lockman, Skull Rock. So at New Year's Eve,
• 40:57
  Speaker 1: Eight-acre fire starts. LAFD responds. But the issue what people
• 41:01
  Speaker 1: don't understand, when they respond, they can't come up there
• 41:04
  Speaker 1: with heavy dozers. So a dozer, like a bulldozer, has
• 41:07
  Speaker 1: a rake-type thing on the front, and they clear around
• 41:11
  Speaker 1: the fire, and they make a fire break even when
• 41:14
  Speaker 1: the fire is going. Ideally, you'd want the fire break before,
• 41:17
  Speaker 1: which because of California state parks and plant over people policies.
• 41:21
  Speaker 1: We don't have fire breaks. So dead fuels, dead brush
• 41:25
  Speaker 1: has been growing around lots of communities for 50, 60 years.
• 41:29
  Speaker 1: So right now the Palisades burned down, but what's next
• 41:33
  Speaker 1: is Brentwood, Hollywood, Hollywood Hills, Sunland, Tujunga, um, What else?
• 41:40
  Speaker 1: Bel Air. All these are going there. I'm sorry, people,
• 41:43
  Speaker 1: you live here. They're all going to burn down if
• 41:45
  Speaker 1: we don't come in here, make fire breaks up 300 feet.
• 41:49
  Speaker 1: Because when I met with Chief Bobby Garcia and I
• 41:51
  Speaker 1: asked him about fire breaks. The purpose of the fire
• 41:53
  Speaker 1: break is to give firefighters a chance to dig in.
• 41:56
  Speaker 1: And when they drop the retardant, if there's not a
• 41:59
  Speaker 1: 300-foot break, then all the retardant just falls through the
• 42:03
  Speaker 1: different levels of the foliage, and it doesn't make a moat.
• 42:07
  Speaker 1: So if you have a break, it creates a moat-type situation,
• 42:10
  Speaker 1: and now the firefighters have a chance— to get up
• 42:13
  Speaker 1: there and respond. So back to January 1st, they couldn't
• 42:16
  Speaker 1: bring their dozers up. We now have text messages because again,
• 42:20
  Speaker 1: I'm one of the lead plaintiffs suing the city of LA,
• 42:23
  Speaker 1: LADWP and the state of California state parks. So I
• 42:26
  Speaker 1: have all the text messages public now, but we have
• 42:29
  Speaker 1: the texts from the park rangers, the LAFD, and they're
• 42:32
  Speaker 1: joking about, of course, I'm not bringing any dozers. I
• 42:35
  Speaker 1: know the rule, you know, protected plants. Keep in mind,
• 42:39
  Speaker 1: I never knew about this plant. It's called milk vetch.
• 42:42
  Speaker 1: Nobody respectfully cares about milk vetch, but somebody in the
• 42:46
  Speaker 1: environmental world cares more about milk vetch than 12 people
• 42:50
  Speaker 1: burning alive because the plant that was protected is the
• 42:54
  Speaker 1: reason pretty much these people burned alive. So. They do
• 42:58
  Speaker 1: their best. You know, the LAFT puts it out. But
• 43:01
  Speaker 1: now we know that the fire was still smoldering. We
• 43:05
  Speaker 1: have hiking footage of the next day and the day
• 43:08
  Speaker 1: after in the state park, Topanga State Park. Hikers, tourists.
• 43:11
  Speaker 1: We have a guy who lived down the street. Of course,
• 43:13
  Speaker 1: he had his own drone that had not only a
• 43:16
  Speaker 1: regular drone, he had a thermal in-imaging drone. So the
• 43:19
  Speaker 1: whole hillside is just smoking. And we now have a firefighter, Pike,
• 43:23
  Speaker 1: on his subpoena video. He says that he... clearly saw
• 43:28
  Speaker 1: smoldering pockets of coal that he didn't want to touch.
• 43:33
  Speaker 1: And he informed his chief, hey, we can't pull the hoses.
• 43:36
  Speaker 1: And the chief said, pull the hoses. Not just Pike.
• 43:39
  Speaker 1: Multiple firefighters have now said that it was all smoking.
• 43:43
  Speaker 1: But why would they pull the hoses? After meeting with
• 43:47
  Speaker 1: so many firefighters since, I've realized the fire department is
• 43:51
  Speaker 1: so understaffed, so underfunded. They're operating a fire department from
• 43:56
  Speaker 1: the 1960s with 50% more calls now. 80% of them
• 44:01
  Speaker 1: are for zombies to overdoses. 30% of the fires are
• 44:05
  Speaker 1: zombie encampment fires. So to me now, I'm trying to
• 44:09
  Speaker 1: get in that chief. I spoke with that chief on
• 44:11
  Speaker 1: the phone and, In my mind, it's a budget thing.
• 44:16
  Speaker 1: Everything's just like, oh, we don't have, you know, clocks
• 44:18
  Speaker 1: tick in. We don't have the money to stay up
• 44:20
  Speaker 1: here with the hoses. Because three years earlier, the same
• 44:23
  Speaker 1: area in the Highlands, I think they left the hoses
• 44:25
  Speaker 1: up in the Palisades for 18 months. You leave the
• 44:28
  Speaker 1: hoses up because it stays hot and they have them up.
• 44:31
  Speaker 1: They pull them the next day. So I think it's
• 44:33
  Speaker 1: a funding thing. I mean, the chief, Chief Crowley, who
• 44:36
  Speaker 1: Mayor Bass fired in retaliation for telling the truth, seven
• 44:39
  Speaker 1: weeks before the Palisades fire, she wrote a memo saying,
• 44:42
  Speaker 1: To Karen Bass and said, I am dangerously underfunded. I
• 44:46
  Speaker 1: cannot keep Angelino safe. What does Mayor Bass do? Cuts
• 44:49
  Speaker 1: another 17 million from the fire department. So in my mind,
• 44:53
  Speaker 1: the chief's like, I can't I don't have the money
• 44:55
  Speaker 1: to leave guys up here. We got to go.
• 44:58
  Speaker 2: So has anyone asked her what was her justification for
• 45:00
  Speaker 2: the cuts?
• 45:02
  Speaker 1: Well, the city's broke. The city has no money.
• 45:04
  Speaker 2: But how do they have so much money to buy
• 45:06
  Speaker 2: homes and homeless shelters and spend all that money?
• 45:09
  Speaker 1: Here's the best part. I've now found out since then
• 45:12
  Speaker 1: there was $ 400 million just in an account that they
• 45:16
  Speaker 1: hadn't even touched for homeless. Literally at the time she
• 45:20
  Speaker 1: cut the 17 million, there's 400 million that right now
• 45:23
  Speaker 1: is still there that they haven't used allocated 400 million.
• 45:26
  Speaker 1: So it's, they got it for the zombies, not for
• 45:29
  Speaker 1: the tax paying citizens, public safety, not to mention back
• 45:33
  Speaker 1: to the taxpayers. The Palisades probably is largely at, at
• 45:36
  Speaker 1: the time of the fire was probably the most money
• 45:39
  Speaker 1: in taxes was going to the city from the Palisades.
• 45:42
  Speaker 1: So you don't, Back to, back to Lachman. So they
• 45:45
  Speaker 1: leave because if you listen to their testimony, the state
• 45:48
  Speaker 1: park rangers say, oh, we got this. We'll keep an
• 45:51
  Speaker 1: eye on this. In the subpoenaed depositions, they asked one
• 45:55
  Speaker 1: of the state park rangers, well, did you see the
• 45:57
  Speaker 1: smoldering hill? They say, oh yeah. What'd you do? Oh,
• 46:00
  Speaker 1: I took a photo. What'd you do with the photo? Nothing.
• 46:03
  Speaker 1: What do you mean? Well, I'm not a firefighter. So
• 46:05
  Speaker 1: the state parks own manual says they're supposed to close
• 46:09
  Speaker 1: this park and To make sure it's not a dangerous condition, obviously,
• 46:13
  Speaker 1: and to monitor it. Did they close the state park?
• 46:16
  Speaker 1: No worse. Guess what the state park rangers asked the
• 46:19
  Speaker 1: firefighters to do? And there's photos. It's mind boggling. They
• 46:23
  Speaker 1: asked the firefighters to take dead brush and fuel and
• 46:27
  Speaker 1: they carry it and they put it over the fire
• 46:29
  Speaker 1: break from a day earlier around where they made the
• 46:32
  Speaker 1: fire break around that January 1st. They take the dead
• 46:35
  Speaker 1: bushes and they cover up the fire break. There's photos
• 46:39
  Speaker 1: of it. It's the craziest thing you've ever seen. What?
• 46:41
  Speaker 1: Because they didn't want people to go on the wrong
• 46:43
  Speaker 1: trails because they look like hiking trails now. Oh my God.
• 46:47
  Speaker 2: So they take- Do you think that having this $ 400
• 46:52
  Speaker 2: million and keeping it in there and keeping funneling money
• 46:55
  Speaker 2: into homelessness and not into the fire department is simply
• 46:58
  Speaker 2: because the fire department is not profitable? You can't siphon
• 47:02
  Speaker 2: money off of the fire department. The fire department basically
• 47:05
  Speaker 2: just goes to fight fires. It goes to equipment, people's salaries,
• 47:10
  Speaker 2: maintaining the fire departments. You can't steal that money.
• 47:14
  Speaker 1: You want to know how sick it is right now?
• 47:16
  Speaker 1: The fire department, LAFD, their union, all the members get
• 47:21
  Speaker 1: like choked up. I feel so because I met with these,
• 47:23
  Speaker 1: you know, I keep meeting with these guys and you
• 47:24
  Speaker 1: hear from their heart. You're like, oh, this is so heavy.
• 47:27
  Speaker 1: They had to take their own money to get on
• 47:30
  Speaker 1: ballot measure a million dollars. They all pulled it together
• 47:33
  Speaker 1: to get a ballot measure this coming election to get
• 47:35
  Speaker 1: a half cent on sales tax in L.A. so that
• 47:39
  Speaker 1: they could have money to fund campaign. Actual things they
• 47:42
  Speaker 1: need to keep a half a cent on all that.
• 47:44
  Speaker 1: But the point is that they need to go out
• 47:47
  Speaker 1: of their own pocket to get a ballot measure because
• 47:51
  Speaker 1: they know they will never get funded by the city
• 47:54
  Speaker 1: to keep Angeleno safe, that they got to go out
• 47:56
  Speaker 1: of it.
• 47:56
  Speaker 2: And there's only one way to look at it. You
• 47:59
  Speaker 2: would look at it like, well, what would be the
• 48:00
  Speaker 2: logical reason why they would allocate so much money towards homelessness?
• 48:04
  Speaker 2: and so little towards the fire department. When the fire
• 48:07
  Speaker 2: department is, you know, I've said this before, but if
• 48:09
  Speaker 2: you want to talk about like socialism that works, the
• 48:12
  Speaker 2: fire department is socialism that works. If you really care
• 48:16
  Speaker 2: about socialism and that's the thing that you really believe in,
• 48:19
  Speaker 2: there's certain aspects of socialism that are applicable in a
• 48:22
  Speaker 2: healthy community. One of them was the fire department. that
• 48:25
  Speaker 2: your money should go, we should pool some of our
• 48:28
  Speaker 2: taxes to go to make sure that we're all protected.
• 48:30
  Speaker 2: And the fire department doesn't just protect the rich people,
• 48:33
  Speaker 2: protects all people. Fires break out, the fire department comes in,
• 48:36
  Speaker 2: regardless whether you have any money or not. We all
• 48:39
  Speaker 2: pool our money together for the fire department. It makes sense.
• 48:42
  Speaker 2: But if it's that, you can't steal that money, right?
• 48:47
  Speaker 2: So there's no way you can figure... The homelessness is...
• 48:51
  Speaker 2: It's vague. It's weird. You could hide it. It's like
• 48:55
  Speaker 2: you're counting bodies on the street. Oh, one, two, three.
• 48:58
  Speaker 2: Let's write 5,000. Like you don't have like real accounting
• 49:02
  Speaker 2: these people because it's so chaotic. But fire department, you
• 49:06
  Speaker 2: know the employees. You know the fire department. You know
• 49:09
  Speaker 2: where the trucks are. You know where everything is.
• 49:11
  Speaker 1: You can't steal that money.
• 49:12
  Speaker 2: But that homeless budget, boy, there's a lot of wiggle
• 49:16
  Speaker 2: room in that homeless budget. And if you wanted to
• 49:19
  Speaker 2: be cynical you would say that's why they fund the
• 49:23
  Speaker 2: fire department so little and they fund the homeless so much.
• 49:28
  Speaker 1: Well, also, these DSA– they don't want to fund the
• 49:33
  Speaker 1: fire department. They don't want to fund the police department.
• 49:36
  Speaker 1: They want these type of entities to be defunded. They
• 49:39
  Speaker 1: don't even want them to exist. So what do they
• 49:41
  Speaker 1: expect when fires happen? Right now, they want things just
• 49:45
  Speaker 1: to burn. If you look around the city— How.
• 49:48
  Speaker 2: The fuck do these people get in office? Like, who's
• 49:50
  Speaker 2: voting for them?
• 49:51
  Speaker 1: They're tricky. They have these ground teams, and they go around.
• 49:55
  Speaker 1: They got a real ground game, and they go knock
• 49:57
  Speaker 1: on old people's doors, and they say, oh, we're Democrats.
• 50:00
  Speaker 1: We help the— They have nice words, and they got
• 50:03
  Speaker 1: a strong— Like, in L.A., I think there's 5,000 at
• 50:06
  Speaker 1: least members that can hit the street, whereas a normal—
• 50:10
  Speaker 1: For instance, Spencer Pratt running for mayor. I don't have 5,000
• 50:13
  Speaker 1: people on deck to go knock on doors. And not
• 50:16
  Speaker 1: to mention, they're funded. They have 100,000 plus members across
• 50:20
  Speaker 1: the U.S. They have outside entities that give them money.
• 50:22
  Speaker 1: And again, they're sneaky. If you go watch on YouTube videos,
• 50:25
  Speaker 1: they talk so much. S.H.I.T. about Democrats, Republicans. They hate
• 50:31
  Speaker 1: all these people. So they don't want either party. They
• 50:34
  Speaker 1: want them. Here's the craziest part. This should be legal.
• 50:37
  Speaker 1: Right now, the one who's running against me, they're Democrat,
• 50:40
  Speaker 1: you know, socialist, champagne queen. She wins. You sign up
• 50:45
  Speaker 1: with the DSA. You sign a contract to co-govern with
• 50:49
  Speaker 1: the DSA. How is it legal when you are.
• 50:52
  Speaker 2: What?
• 50:52
  Speaker 1: Yes.
• 50:53
  Speaker 2: Wait a minute. Explain that.
• 50:55
  Speaker 1: So when you become... You're a DSA member. So right
• 50:58
  Speaker 1: now she's a city council member. And when the DSA...
• 51:01
  Speaker 1: gives you an endorsement, you sign a contract with them
• 51:03
  Speaker 1: to co-govern. So right now, she's not representing her district
• 51:08
  Speaker 1: as an American citizen of Los Angeles.
• 51:10
  Speaker 2: She's representing the Democrat Socialists of America.
• 51:13
  Speaker 1: Yes. Wow.
• 51:14
  Speaker 2: Co-govern.
• 51:15
  Speaker 1: That should be illegal. I mean, illegal.
• 51:17
  Speaker 2: And so they can just go full ham with all
• 51:19
  Speaker 2: these radical ideas.
• 51:21
  Speaker 1: Yeah. And their idea is to just come in, take
• 51:24
  Speaker 1: all of our tax money and keep trying to invent this. Like,
• 51:27
  Speaker 1: for instance, that lady has had six years in charge
• 51:30
  Speaker 1: of her city council. Her thousands of her constituents message
• 51:34
  Speaker 1: me photos. It looks like, again, Mad Max in her area.
• 51:38
  Speaker 1: So we're going to put her in charge. The only
• 51:41
  Speaker 1: thing worse, actually, than the Cuban communist Karen Bass is
• 51:46
  Speaker 1: actually a socialist DSA. So I'm running against worse and worse.
• 51:51
  Speaker 2: It's truly– Is Karen Bass running for reelection? Yeah.
• 51:54
  Speaker 1: That's why I stepped in. When I saw her announce,
• 51:56
  Speaker 1: I was like, oh, no. You don't get to burn
• 51:58
  Speaker 1: my house down.
• 51:59
  Speaker 2: Do people– like what is the general population? I think
• 52:05
  Speaker 2: most people have jobs and families and they're busy. They're
• 52:08
  Speaker 2: very busy. So it's very difficult to be completely informed
• 52:11
  Speaker 2: about all this. What is the general perception of Karen Bass?
• 52:15
  Speaker 2: Like what is her approval rating in Los Angeles?
• 52:17
  Speaker 1: So she has the record lowest approval rating in the
• 52:20
  Speaker 1: history right now. So UCLA just did a poll about
• 52:23
  Speaker 1: a week ago. I'm number two to Karen Bass. She
• 52:25
  Speaker 1: is approximately 20 something percent. I think I have 13
• 52:29
  Speaker 1: percent with 40 percent undecided. Those 40 percent, I keep
• 52:34
  Speaker 1: saying those are my voters. Those are people that are
• 52:37
  Speaker 1: fed up. They know they're not voting for Karen Bass.
• 52:39
  Speaker 1: They just don't know. There's a guy named Spencer Pratt
• 52:42
  Speaker 1: that's saying we need common sense. We need to clean
• 52:45
  Speaker 1: these streets. No more fentanyl at the park. Parents need
• 52:48
  Speaker 1: to feel comfortable taking their kids to school without seeing
• 52:51
  Speaker 1: meth zombies having sex on the side of the street.
• 52:54
  Speaker 1: We're talking common sense. This is not political, what I'm
• 52:57
  Speaker 1: running on. Not to mention the mayor is a nonpartisan race.
• 53:01
  Speaker 1: There's no letters on it for a reason. The mayor
• 53:04
  Speaker 1: is supposed to represent all of Los Angeles, period. You'll
• 53:09
  Speaker 1: never get me ever doing these performative politics, talking about
• 53:13
  Speaker 1: national issues, doing the bait and switch stuff. We're all
• 53:16
  Speaker 1: talking about over here why I destroy your actual local government.
• 53:21
  Speaker 1: That's the problem. Everyone gets caught up. in the media
• 53:23
  Speaker 1: and they follow what's going on in different States and
• 53:26
  Speaker 1: different politics and the, in the federal government, when the
• 53:30
  Speaker 1: people that really affect your life, who are destroying your
• 53:33
  Speaker 1: way of life are your local government, your mayor, your
• 53:36
  Speaker 1: city council, your fire commission, your police commission. When I'm mayor,
• 53:40
  Speaker 1: I'm wiping out this fire commission. We're putting actual experts
• 53:44
  Speaker 1: that know what they're talking about. Not these rando experts,
• 53:46
  Speaker 1: political pointing lunatics. Same with the police commission. You need
• 53:50
  Speaker 1: to have people that pride themselves in law enforcement and
• 53:53
  Speaker 1: want accountability and want the best from the police department.
• 53:56
  Speaker 1: You know, the police department is the lowest it's been
• 53:58
  Speaker 1: in 30 years in Los Angeles. And here's my favorite thing.
• 54:02
  Speaker 2: In terms of staff? Yeah.
• 54:03
  Speaker 1: In terms of police officers.
• 54:05
  Speaker 2: 30 years.
• 54:06
  Speaker 1: 30 years. Here's the best part. They will tell you,
• 54:09
  Speaker 1: the mayor said, crime is down. I have truly, because
• 54:13
  Speaker 1: I spend all day long just reading DMs.
• 54:15
  Speaker 2: It's down in terms of its reporting.
• 54:17
  Speaker 1: Thank you. Every message I get, they say, call 911.
• 54:21
  Speaker 1: You'll be on hold for God knows how long. If
• 54:24
  Speaker 1: they ever pick up, if it's literally not like somebody's
• 54:28
  Speaker 1: getting shot at that moment. You know, if you're trying
• 54:30
  Speaker 1: to report crime or this, they're not coming. Nobody's filing it.
• 54:34
  Speaker 1: They don't have the staff to be doing that. So
• 54:37
  Speaker 1: the real crime numbers are so insane. Not to mention
• 54:41
  Speaker 1: Karen Bass will brag about homicides are down. First off,
• 54:44
  Speaker 1: that's a national trend. She's taking credit for the whole
• 54:47
  Speaker 1: United States down. But I even have another angle on that.
• 54:50
  Speaker 1: I'd have to go probably to some emergency hospitals. But
• 54:53
  Speaker 1: I think Los Angeles has such good trauma nurses and
• 54:58
  Speaker 1: trauma doctors. The amount of stabbings and shootings, they probably
• 55:02
  Speaker 1: keep people alive. That's the real number. You know, maybe
• 55:05
  Speaker 1: 30 years ago before we were so good with quick
• 55:08
  Speaker 1: clot and, you know, and God knows we have so
• 55:11
  Speaker 1: much stuff now that keeps people alive just on the
• 55:15
  Speaker 1: Metro alone. The stabbings are, everything is double last year.
• 55:20
  Speaker 1: So these people are living, but everyone's getting stabbed everywhere.
• 55:23
  Speaker 1: I keep joking that everyone loved that guy in New York,
• 55:26
  Speaker 1: Mondami or whatever his name is, because he said, everything's
• 55:29
  Speaker 1: going to be free. Well, as mayor on the metros
• 55:32
  Speaker 1: in Los Angeles, Mayor Pratt will make sure you're going
• 55:34
  Speaker 1: to be free from stabbings. So there you go. You're welcome.
• 55:39
  Speaker 2: Yeah, that's a good point. It's like just because the
• 55:42
  Speaker 2: actual murders are down. It doesn't mean that the actual
• 55:46
  Speaker 2: violence is down. New analysis by L.A. City Comptroller says
• 55:49
  Speaker 2: that at least $ 513 million meant to help homeless went unspent.
• 55:54
  Speaker 2: This was just 2024. That's about $ 400 plus in 2025 also.
• 55:59
  Speaker 2: Good Lord.
• 56:00
  Speaker 1: Yeah, the $ 400 is for sure.
• 56:02
  Speaker 2: And then where does that money go?
• 56:06
  Speaker 1: Just last week, the federal government paused a $ 400 million
• 56:10
  Speaker 1: payment that was coming to Because they said all these
• 56:12
  Speaker 1: federal audits aren't you're not showing the book. So just
• 56:16
  Speaker 1: the money is just. coming and that's we're just talking
• 56:20
  Speaker 1: to la which is the epicenter of the whole state
• 56:22
  Speaker 1: of california you know all this fraud that you keep
• 56:25
  Speaker 1: hearing about everything it all comes from la and then
• 56:28
  Speaker 1: goes out to california it's like la is the death
• 56:32
  Speaker 1: star you know and that's why i'm coming in luke
• 56:35
  Speaker 1: skywalker i'm like.
• 56:36
  Speaker 2: Well nick shirley started doing investigations into all sorts of
• 56:39
  Speaker 2: other fraud that's all around los angeles with hospices and
• 56:44
  Speaker 2: all these different things and They're finding hundreds and hundreds
• 56:47
  Speaker 2: of millions of dollars of fraud.
• 56:48
  Speaker 1: But not for much longer because he could be facing
• 56:52
  Speaker 1: a $ 10, 000 fine.
• 56:53
  Speaker 2: Isn't that crazy?
• 56:53
  Speaker 1: According to the new California bill yesterday.
• 56:56
  Speaker 2: So this is a new bill. Instead of saying, wow,
• 56:59
  Speaker 2: thank you for uncovering this fraud. They passed a bill
• 57:03
  Speaker 2: that if you film things and you go to a
• 57:07
  Speaker 2: place and identify that place and And then somehow or another,
• 57:12
  Speaker 2: those people, what, get harassed or something because of it?
• 57:15
  Speaker 2: You could get fined.
• 57:17
  Speaker 1: Yeah. So I was already saying on my own podcast,
• 57:19
  Speaker 1: my plan as mayor, because everyone kept being like, oh,
• 57:22
  Speaker 1: you need Nick Shirley. No, what I need is all
• 57:24
  Speaker 1: of Los Angeles to be a Nick Shirley. I, as mayor,
• 57:27
  Speaker 1: am going to offer cash bounties. If you film any fraud,
• 57:31
  Speaker 1: city workers doing something suspicious, any type of scams, and
• 57:36
  Speaker 1: you bring it to the mayor's office and we check
• 57:38
  Speaker 1: it out, I'm going to pay you. So now I
• 57:41
  Speaker 1: got to deal with the state, you know, if that passes.
• 57:44
  Speaker 1: But I was already going to just make the city
• 57:46
  Speaker 1: become these nicks. Everybody has an iPhone.
• 57:49
  Speaker 2: What an insane response. What an insane response. Instead of
• 57:53
  Speaker 2: thanking someone for uncovering criminal fraud, you make a new
• 57:58
  Speaker 2: law where you turn them into criminals.
• 58:01
  Speaker 1: These people are laundering more money than El Chapo.
• 58:03
  Speaker 2: Yeah. Oh, yeah.
• 58:05
  Speaker 1: That's what I keep trying to say.
• 58:06
  Speaker 2: Oh, it's billions. Billions and billions of dollars.
• 58:09
  Speaker 1: This is real criminals. Like the Gotti, all these people
• 58:12
  Speaker 1: we used to think were mobsters at the Italian shops
• 58:15
  Speaker 1: back in the day, they couldn't even comprehend what's going
• 58:18
  Speaker 1: on right now. And then even on the city level,
• 58:20
  Speaker 1: like when I went and met in a fire station,
• 58:22
  Speaker 1: they were telling me about how if a refrigerator, this
• 58:25
  Speaker 1: is mafia stuff, if a refrigerator breaks, you know, firefighters,
• 58:29
  Speaker 1: they know how to take the refrigerator and they put
• 58:30
  Speaker 1: it out. The city person comes in, they go, oh, no,
• 58:33
  Speaker 1: put that back in. You can't have that taken in.
• 58:36
  Speaker 1: So they make them put the broken thing back in
• 58:39
  Speaker 1: before the next person comes. And then it costs like $ 50, 000
• 58:43
  Speaker 1: and only this one city contract can fix it. It's
• 58:47
  Speaker 1: not up for bid. And that is where all this
• 58:51
  Speaker 1: extra money that isn't going to actually getting these firefighters.
• 58:56
  Speaker 1: The fire station I was at, they had a fire
• 58:58
  Speaker 1: truck that should have been in They retired to Mexico
• 59:01
  Speaker 1: 10 years ago, and instead they pay to put a
• 59:03
  Speaker 1: new back bumper on it. These guys have to pay
• 59:06
  Speaker 1: out of their own pocket for the blinds, the paint.
• 59:10
  Speaker 1: and they do it because they live here. It's so
• 59:13
  Speaker 1: sad where LAFD used to be the symbol of great,
• 59:17
  Speaker 1: like the goat firefighters that everyone looked to how we've
• 59:20
  Speaker 1: just let it fall apart. Same with LAPD. We have
• 59:24
  Speaker 1: just no pride in what's happening is the Olympics are coming.
• 59:28
  Speaker 1: And what I keep telling LAFD, Everybody is we're going
• 59:31
  Speaker 1: to have a terrorist attack is because we're not even
• 59:34
  Speaker 1: safe for our streets right now. They're not even protected.
• 59:37
  Speaker 1: If we do fires alone, all a terrorist cell needs
• 59:40
  Speaker 1: to do is get five of those black e-bikes and
• 59:43
  Speaker 1: they need to go on a windy day leading up
• 59:45
  Speaker 1: to the Olympics. Go around with road flares, tossing them
• 59:49
  Speaker 1: out on all the 50 years of dead brush. The
• 59:51
  Speaker 1: entire city will look like a nuclear bomb went off.
• 59:55
  Speaker 1: Look at the palisades.
• 59:56
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 59:57
  Speaker 1: One area, all five bad guys, bad actors go around
• 1:00:01
  Speaker 1: and do that. It's done.
• 1:00:03
  Speaker 2: And by the way, there's a lot of evidence that
• 1:00:05
  Speaker 2: a lot of the fire in the Palisades, not just
• 1:00:07
  Speaker 2: the initial fire, but subsequent fires were caused by arson.
• 1:00:10
  Speaker 2: In fact, my friend Andrew filmed some guys doing it.
• 1:00:14
  Speaker 2: He filmed guys lighting things on fire. He filmed it
• 1:00:17
  Speaker 2: in his car. He was watching these vagrants, filming them
• 1:00:22
  Speaker 2: lighting things on fire.
• 1:00:23
  Speaker 1: Two days ago, there's photos of a vagrant homeless zombie
• 1:00:28
  Speaker 1: in the Palisades trying to light a fire right now. Thankfully,
• 1:00:31
  Speaker 1: the area hasn't grown back yet, but they're two days ago.
• 1:00:36
  Speaker 1: These zombies... People don't like the word zombie, but they
• 1:00:40
  Speaker 1: are zombies. Yes, there's different boxes of homelessness. There's people
• 1:00:46
  Speaker 1: that need help.
• 1:00:47
  Speaker 2: Down on their luck. Down on their luck.
• 1:00:49
  Speaker 1: They've lost their job quick. Boom. That is one box.
• 1:00:52
  Speaker 1: It's a very small box, but I am aware of those.
• 1:00:56
  Speaker 1: Then there is a 95% box.
• 1:00:58
  Speaker 2: That are people that are just fentanyl zombies.
• 1:01:00
  Speaker 1: Fentanyl zombies. Meth.
• 1:01:01
  Speaker 2: Meth.
• 1:01:02
  Speaker 1: Just want to live on the streets and be a
• 1:01:04
  Speaker 1: drug addict right now. Maybe some of those people get help.
• 1:01:07
  Speaker 1: They get sober, get proper treatment. Now they get a
• 1:01:10
  Speaker 1: new chance to life. Then there's another box that are
• 1:01:12
  Speaker 1: just people that want to do drugs and be a
• 1:01:15
  Speaker 1: bad person. We have to acknowledge there is actually just
• 1:01:18
  Speaker 1: bad people that are in a different box.
• 1:01:21
  Speaker 2: So there's also people that want everything else to fall
• 1:01:24
  Speaker 2: apart because their life is in the shit. They live
• 1:01:27
  Speaker 2: in shit. Their life is hell and they don't want
• 1:01:30
  Speaker 2: to see you drive by an Alexis. They don't want
• 1:01:32
  Speaker 2: to see you go to your nice house. They don't
• 1:01:34
  Speaker 2: want to see any of that. They want to light
• 1:01:36
  Speaker 2: things on fire.
• 1:01:37
  Speaker 1: Well, that's how also these DSA people get support because
• 1:01:40
  Speaker 1: they've destroyed the city so much. You look around and
• 1:01:43
  Speaker 1: you think, oh, the American dream is broken. Capitalism is broken.
• 1:01:48
  Speaker 1: But they're the ones that broke it. So if you're
• 1:01:51
  Speaker 1: just like a young 20-year-old looking around, you're like, oh,
• 1:01:54
  Speaker 1: my God, there's zombies everywhere, rents so much, all the
• 1:01:57
  Speaker 1: restaurants are closing. This system doesn't work. But what they're
• 1:02:00
  Speaker 1: not looking at is who's breaking the system that did work,
• 1:02:03
  Speaker 1: the one that I grew up in. That was so beautiful.
• 1:02:06
  Speaker 1: Over 100 restaurants in L.A. have closed this year.
• 1:02:09
  Speaker 2: Over 100.
• 1:02:10
  Speaker 1: And these aren't chains. These are people that put their
• 1:02:13
  Speaker 1: life into this.
• 1:02:14
  Speaker 2: These are chefs.
• 1:02:16
  Speaker 1: And they can't make it in a place that was
• 1:02:18
  Speaker 1: a go-to food spot.
• 1:02:20
  Speaker 2: Well, where I used to do comedy in Los Angeles
• 1:02:23
  Speaker 2: on Sunset at the comedy store. If you drive down
• 1:02:26
  Speaker 2: Sunset now, everything is for lease. It's fucking nuts. It
• 1:02:30
  Speaker 2: used to be very difficult to get a property on
• 1:02:33
  Speaker 2: Sunset because it was so valuable. In the 90s and
• 1:02:36
  Speaker 2: the early 2000s, like everybody wanted to have a restaurant
• 1:02:39
  Speaker 2: on Sunset. Everybody wanted to have a bar on Sunset
• 1:02:41
  Speaker 2: because that's where everybody went. There was always cars and
• 1:02:43
  Speaker 2: it was nice and you could walk on the street.
• 1:02:46
  Speaker 2: We would walk down to get food. We would go
• 1:02:48
  Speaker 2: to the stand after we would– the standard rather after
• 1:02:51
  Speaker 2: we would go to the– I would fucking never walk
• 1:02:53
  Speaker 2: down that street now. It was normal.
• 1:02:56
  Speaker 1: And that's you trained up, you know, ready to go
• 1:02:59
  Speaker 1: with the sidekick. Imagine a lovely lady that just wants
• 1:03:03
  Speaker 1: to walk her little dog. The amount of people that
• 1:03:05
  Speaker 1: just are just dog walkers. They're like, I am scared
• 1:03:08
  Speaker 1: to walk my dog. I won't say which newscaster, but
• 1:03:11
  Speaker 1: I had a newscaster off camera recently said. Everything you're
• 1:03:15
  Speaker 1: saying is true. She goes, every morning I have to
• 1:03:17
  Speaker 1: get up at 5 a.m. because it's the safest time
• 1:03:19
  Speaker 1: for me to do my morning run every day. Naked zombie.
• 1:03:22
  Speaker 1: She said, I'm running by a naked zombie trying to.
• 1:03:25
  Speaker 1: Can you imagine not, you know, you and I don't
• 1:03:28
  Speaker 1: want to go walk on the street, but just like
• 1:03:30
  Speaker 1: a woman with their little dog or moms with strollers.
• 1:03:33
  Speaker 1: And it's not it's across the entire city. I watched
• 1:03:36
  Speaker 1: news in Spanish where these underpasses in South Central or
• 1:03:41
  Speaker 1: East L.A., these families have been coming to the news
• 1:03:43
  Speaker 1: and they're like, please, because they're having to take their
• 1:03:45
  Speaker 1: kids under these underpasses with encampments to get to the schools.
• 1:03:49
  Speaker 1: It's not just like a Hollywood thing or a valley.
• 1:03:52
  Speaker 1: It's everywhere.
• 1:03:53
  Speaker 2: It's everywhere. And I don't think people understand it. Can
• 1:03:56
  Speaker 2: we show some videos? Let's show some videos of some
• 1:03:59
  Speaker 2: of the real chaotic homelessness in Los Angeles so people
• 1:04:02
  Speaker 2: can get a look at it. Because, you know, I've
• 1:04:05
  Speaker 2: had some friends send me videos like my friend Whitney Cummings.
• 1:04:08
  Speaker 2: She went through Los Angeles a couple of months ago
• 1:04:12
  Speaker 2: and she sent me a video. And I was like,
• 1:04:13
  Speaker 2: this is fucking nuts because I haven't been. I don't
• 1:04:17
  Speaker 2: go there anymore, man. I fucking avoid that place like
• 1:04:20
  Speaker 2: the plague. I used to love it. I used to
• 1:04:22
  Speaker 2: love it. I never even thought until the pandemic hit.
• 1:04:26
  Speaker 2: I was like, I'll be probably here forever. And now
• 1:04:29
  Speaker 2: it's just nuts. It's the Street People of Los Angeles
• 1:04:31
  Speaker 2: Instagram account. They show this stuff all the time. Street
• 1:04:34
  Speaker 2: People of Los Angeles Instagram account. This is a dad
• 1:04:37
  Speaker 2: and a son walking by. Yeah. Well, this is a
• 1:04:41
  Speaker 2: small— That's in the Valley.
• 1:04:42
  Speaker 1: No, but the point is— yeah, I posted this also in
• 1:04:46
  Speaker 1: the sense that look at these little kids. They got
• 1:04:48
  Speaker 1: to go by— this is— We used to.
• 1:04:50
  Speaker 2: Have our studio in Woodland Hills, and we used to
• 1:04:52
  Speaker 2: have guys that were camping out right in front. Look
• 1:04:55
  Speaker 2: at that. Even Perez Hilton is on your side. Pratt
• 1:04:58
  Speaker 2: is the path. What Los Angeles needs.
• 1:05:00
  Speaker 1: You see that, Pratt? Yeah, he's—Prez. God bless Perez.
• 1:05:04
  Speaker 2: Uh-oh. You might be the only person saying that.
• 1:05:06
  Speaker 1: No, he had a near-death experience and came to Jesus. Oh,
• 1:05:09
  Speaker 1: good for him. He's locked in.
• 1:05:12
  Speaker 2: I hope it sticks.
• 1:05:13
  Speaker 1: Oh.
• 1:05:13
  Speaker 2: Is that somebody died?
• 1:05:14
  Speaker 1: No, he died twice pretty much.
• 1:05:16
  Speaker 2: From what? What happened?
• 1:05:18
  Speaker 1: He took antibiotics. Without food when he, which I didn't
• 1:05:24
  Speaker 1: know was a thing. That's why I say to take food.
• 1:05:26
  Speaker 1: And then again, I'm going to say this wrong, but
• 1:05:28
  Speaker 1: whatever that creates some situation, boom, now he has sepsis
• 1:05:32
  Speaker 1: and he's next to death for 30 days. And then
• 1:05:35
  Speaker 1: we just got out of the hospital. Then he has
• 1:05:37
  Speaker 1: a blood clot. So he's like Bible all day. He
• 1:05:41
  Speaker 1: talked to God when he was, like, dead. So I think.
• 1:05:44
  Speaker 2: He's for real, for real. Okay.
• 1:05:46
  Speaker 1: Well, that would be nice.
• 1:05:49
  Speaker 2: He's another nice person in the world.
• 1:05:51
  Speaker 1: He's a powerful prayer warrior now. So, you know.
• 1:05:55
  Speaker 2: Show me some Skid Row. Some Skid Row footage is
• 1:05:57
  Speaker 2: the nuttiest. Okay. Skid Row footage is the real— that' s the
• 1:06:02
  Speaker 2: real red pill. I mean— You're like, how? It's just—
• 1:06:07
  Speaker 2: There's no better way to describe it than how you
• 1:06:09
  Speaker 2: described it earlier. It's literally a criminal cartel. It's a
• 1:06:12
  Speaker 2: criminal cartel that's siphoning money off of people. Look at
• 1:06:15
  Speaker 2: that guy. Just needs a job. These people just need
• 1:06:19
  Speaker 2: a home. Come on, man. This is not that bad.
• 1:06:22
  Speaker 2: This is very minor. There's certain areas of Skid Row.
• 1:06:27
  Speaker 2: Look how they have tents, which is so crazy.
• 1:06:29
  Speaker 1: Well, you paid for that. You didn't. I did.
• 1:06:31
  Speaker 2: Oh, look at this. This guy's protecting against vampires. Yeah.
• 1:06:36
  Speaker 1: These are nice clips.
• 1:06:37
  Speaker 2: That guy just needs a job, dude. Relax. Poor dog.
• 1:06:42
  Speaker 2: I know. I see dogs with homeless people. I'm such
• 1:06:45
  Speaker 2: a dog lover. I can't go to the dog pound.
• 1:06:48
  Speaker 2: If I went to the dog pound, I'd have 100 dogs,
• 1:06:50
  Speaker 2: and my wife would never let that happen.
• 1:06:51
  Speaker 1: So that guy there in the fentanyl, these fentanyl hangs,
• 1:06:56
  Speaker 1: they don't need beds. Right. That's not a bed issue. No.
• 1:06:59
  Speaker 1: It's not a housing.
• 1:07:00
  Speaker 2: They need to get cleaned up. And for people that
• 1:07:03
  Speaker 2: don't know, this was not like this. This was not
• 1:07:08
  Speaker 2: like this a decade ago. This is a rapid decline
• 1:07:11
  Speaker 2: in what this city looks like.
• 1:07:13
  Speaker 1: Oh, there's some nice people.
• 1:07:15
  Speaker 2: It's just crazy. It's a– this is not as radical
• 1:07:21
  Speaker 2: as it could be. Skid Row is really– if you
• 1:07:24
  Speaker 2: could find some– I mean, there's innumerable videos. I can't
• 1:07:27
  Speaker 2: click on, check them all fast enough, but try this
• 1:07:30
  Speaker 2: one skid row, right, right there. Right there. That one.
• 1:07:35
  Speaker 2: I spent a day on skid row. There was a, a,
• 1:07:38
  Speaker 2: a comic in, um, the early two thousands that went
• 1:07:43
  Speaker 2: undercover and lived on skid row for a couple of
• 1:07:46
  Speaker 2: days to film things. And it was pretty astonishing even
• 1:07:49
  Speaker 2: back then. But again, This is a created environment that
• 1:07:53
  Speaker 2: they created because they didn't want to deal with the
• 1:07:55
  Speaker 2: homeless people. And they're like, you know what we should do?
• 1:07:57
  Speaker 2: We should just take these people and put them in
• 1:07:59
  Speaker 2: one spot and don't let them leave. And that's how
• 1:08:01
  Speaker 2: they created Skid Row. And, you know, decades later, you
• 1:08:05
  Speaker 2: have five, zero, 50 blocks of nothing but this kind
• 1:08:10
  Speaker 2: of shit where it's just fucking chaos. It's just homeless
• 1:08:13
  Speaker 2: people everywhere. And it's so sad. All lost lives. You know,
• 1:08:18
  Speaker 2: as a father, you know, you're a father. These are
• 1:08:20
  Speaker 2: this is someone's children. This is someone had a baby
• 1:08:24
  Speaker 2: and that baby they loved more than anything. Like, oh,
• 1:08:26
  Speaker 2: my God, they're so precious. That precious person is now
• 1:08:30
  Speaker 2: in the middle of an intersection hunched over on fentanyl.
• 1:08:32
  Speaker 1: Well, the amount of people that message me and say,
• 1:08:35
  Speaker 1: thank you. My so-and-so brother, daughter, son died of fentanyl overdose.
• 1:08:42
  Speaker 1: These people need mandatory treatment. They don't need just, oh,
• 1:08:45
  Speaker 1: if you want, we have these needles for you. We
• 1:08:49
  Speaker 1: have street med teams where we can come in. You know,
• 1:08:53
  Speaker 1: it's crazy. And it's back to being a dad. I'm
• 1:08:57
  Speaker 1: only running for mayor to do one last Hail Mary.
• 1:09:00
  Speaker 1: to try to save the city I love and grew up.
• 1:09:02
  Speaker 1: So God willing, well, they already burned my down my house.
• 1:09:06
  Speaker 1: That's what the LA times was. That's the funniest. Did
• 1:09:08
  Speaker 1: you see this? So they tried to do a hit
• 1:09:11
  Speaker 1: piece LA times and say that I wasn't eligible to
• 1:09:14
  Speaker 1: run for mayor because because my house burned down. This
• 1:09:18
  Speaker 1: was last week. No, I'm not kidding. This is real.
• 1:09:22
  Speaker 1: And they were like, oh, he's living in Santa Barbara
• 1:09:24
  Speaker 1: right now.
• 1:09:25
  Speaker 2: I thought the LA Times had become more reasonable when
• 1:09:27
  Speaker 2: that guy owned it.
• 1:09:29
  Speaker 1: That was... Completely not true. And the funniest part is
• 1:09:31
  Speaker 1: the LA Times is in El Segundo for the last
• 1:09:35
  Speaker 1: eight years. So they're the ones that should be worried about.
• 1:09:37
  Speaker 1: So what happens is they say, oh, it's up in
• 1:09:40
  Speaker 1: the air because he's in San Francisco. I call the
• 1:09:43
  Speaker 1: city clerk and I say, hey, the LA Times is
• 1:09:45
  Speaker 1: reporting that I know I'm eligible. Everybody knows me. It's
• 1:09:48
  Speaker 1: like saying that 7,000 people whose houses burned down now
• 1:09:51
  Speaker 1: can't vote.
• 1:09:52
  Speaker 2: Right.
• 1:09:53
  Speaker 1: They can't vote.
• 1:09:53
  Speaker 2: Because you don't have a house there.
• 1:09:54
  Speaker 1: Because Karen Bass, who you're not supposed to vote for
• 1:09:57
  Speaker 1: because she burned your house down, you can't vote for her.
• 1:09:59
  Speaker 1: So he's like, of course you can run. I said,
• 1:10:01
  Speaker 1: anybody can call and ask this? He's like, yes, it's
• 1:10:04
  Speaker 1: on our website. So it was just a full hit piece.
• 1:10:06
  Speaker 2: So why would the LA Times– who was the person
• 1:10:08
  Speaker 2: who wrote that story?
• 1:10:09
  Speaker 1: This guy, Noah Goldberg. And why is because he's– Pushing
• 1:10:13
  Speaker 1: the Nithya Raman. There's a video of him at the
• 1:10:15
  Speaker 1: bar with her like, yeah, they want.
• 1:10:18
  Speaker 2: She's a Democrat socialist.
• 1:10:19
  Speaker 1: Yes. And L.A. Times wants their own clickbaity Mondami. They
• 1:10:23
  Speaker 1: try to make their Mondami is a custom built Manchurian candidate.
• 1:10:27
  Speaker 1: Twenty years in the making. He's a star. That's why
• 1:10:30
  Speaker 1: he's got the smile. You can't take this bootleg wannabe
• 1:10:34
  Speaker 1: and try to cook her into it. So they dropped
• 1:10:36
  Speaker 1: this fake hit piece on me the day the UCLA
• 1:10:39
  Speaker 1: poll comes out that has me in the lead and
• 1:10:41
  Speaker 1: not the one that they had just run some fake
• 1:10:44
  Speaker 1: DSA BS poll that nobody believed. It was movie scene.
• 1:10:49
  Speaker 2: How is this person doing in the polls, this person
• 1:10:52
  Speaker 2: that you're running against?
• 1:10:53
  Speaker 1: They're at 9%, I think. But again, the polls, I'm
• 1:10:55
  Speaker 1: in number one. Anybody, they know this. She's in charge
• 1:10:59
  Speaker 1: on the city council. She's the chairperson of the homeless,
• 1:11:03
  Speaker 1: of the homeless plan.
• 1:11:06
  Speaker 2: Okay?
• 1:11:06
  Speaker 1: She wants to... What's she going to change? She's had
• 1:11:09
  Speaker 1: six years. So we're going to put... And then she's
• 1:11:13
  Speaker 1: tweeting or X-ing or whatever you call it. Like, my
• 1:11:15
  Speaker 1: new plan. Homeless is not working. Oh, so you just
• 1:11:19
  Speaker 1: announced you're running for mayor. The best part is... She's
• 1:11:22
  Speaker 1: had six years to not say any of these problems
• 1:11:24
  Speaker 1: until she's running for mayor. These politicians are just– it's
• 1:11:28
  Speaker 1: the problem.
• 1:11:29
  Speaker 2: They're demons.
• 1:11:30
  Speaker 1: The problem is people have jobs. People aren't paying attention
• 1:11:33
  Speaker 1: like me. They just hear the little fake, I care.
• 1:11:36
  Speaker 1: This isn't working. Oh, she's a city council member. Oh,
• 1:11:40
  Speaker 1: she's a Democrat. No, she's not. She's not a Democrat.
• 1:11:44
  Speaker 1: I'm the one who's been fighting for Democrats for the
• 1:11:46
  Speaker 1: last year and a half to expose all of this fraud,
• 1:11:50
  Speaker 1: our literal city, letting our town burn to the ground.
• 1:11:54
  Speaker 1: So that's when I really stepped up. So I watched
• 1:11:56
  Speaker 1: this movie, Hotshot, a documentary on, you know, fires. And
• 1:12:00
  Speaker 1: I see in this documentary, a hundred mile per hour,
• 1:12:04
  Speaker 1: I think it was the Oak The oak fire in
• 1:12:08
  Speaker 1: the film and you see 100 mile per hour wind
• 1:12:11
  Speaker 1: and the firefighters are standing there with like garden hoses
• 1:12:14
  Speaker 1: and you're seeing that 100 mile per hour wind does
• 1:12:16
  Speaker 1: not mean everything burns down because this community have fire breaks.
• 1:12:21
  Speaker 1: So then I like see who this guy who like
• 1:12:23
  Speaker 1: live with these these hot shots for six years. So
• 1:12:26
  Speaker 1: I find him on X and he's live streaming talking
• 1:12:29
  Speaker 1: about how the Palisades fire before anybody was not started
• 1:12:34
  Speaker 1: on January 7th, but a rekindle from that first fire.
• 1:12:38
  Speaker 1: When the LAFD, this is where it gets so conspiracy
• 1:12:42
  Speaker 1: Chinatown movie type shit. Um, they hired a crisis PR firm,
• 1:12:49
  Speaker 1: the lead company. Here's the best part. Guess where they
• 1:12:52
  Speaker 1: got the money? The mayor's office where they got the
• 1:12:54
  Speaker 1: money to hire the crisis from the LAFD foundation. They
• 1:12:59
  Speaker 1: use charity money to hire a crisis team to alter
• 1:13:04
  Speaker 1: the after action report that says all these things that
• 1:13:07
  Speaker 1: went wrong to make the mayor Karen Bass look good.
• 1:13:10
  Speaker 1: Oh my God. I find this out because I start
• 1:13:14
  Speaker 1: posting about what this director, Gabriel Mann, is saying about
• 1:13:18
  Speaker 1: the Palisades fires. I'm posting now. I got info. So
• 1:13:20
  Speaker 1: now firefighters start coming to my DMs as whistleblowers. Hey,
• 1:13:24
  Speaker 1: just so you know, the after action report that went out,
• 1:13:28
  Speaker 1: that was the ninth version. And the battalion chief that
• 1:13:31
  Speaker 1: wrote it wouldn't put his name on it because they
• 1:13:33
  Speaker 1: changed it so much. So I do a post about that.
• 1:13:36
  Speaker 1: Three weeks later, the LA Times, everything I post, posts.
• 1:13:40
  Speaker 1: Three weeks later, they would steal my thing and I'd
• 1:13:42
  Speaker 1: be like, Pulitzer Prize guy. It's like, I posted that
• 1:13:45
  Speaker 1: three weeks ago because the firefighters were coming to me
• 1:13:47
  Speaker 1: and telling me what was going on behind the scenes.
• 1:13:50
  Speaker 1: So also as mayor, I'm going to make sure that
• 1:13:53
  Speaker 1: the fire department, the fire chief has civil protections again.
• 1:13:58
  Speaker 1: So right now the fire chief is like a puppet.
• 1:14:00
  Speaker 1: They have to do whatever the mayor says, cover up
• 1:14:03
  Speaker 1: for the mayor. They're just another politician. They need to
• 1:14:06
  Speaker 1: be responsible for the Angelenos, the public. And they don't
• 1:14:10
  Speaker 1: have that protection. The mayor can just get rid of them.
• 1:14:12
  Speaker 1: So you got to give them these civil protections back
• 1:14:15
  Speaker 1: like they have. The mayor can't just get rid of
• 1:14:17
  Speaker 1: the police chief, for instance. But that's when I was like, oh,
• 1:14:21
  Speaker 1: these people are organized crime. Thank you. It sounds like
• 1:14:25
  Speaker 1: the mob. Here's the best part. You know, when the
• 1:14:27
  Speaker 1: mayor was in Ghana, as everything was burning down. Do
• 1:14:30
  Speaker 1: you know who she left in charge? Her deputy mayor.
• 1:14:33
  Speaker 1: Do you know where the deputy mayor was? The deputy mayor,
• 1:14:37
  Speaker 1: Mayor Karen Bassett, deputy mayor, was on house arrest because
• 1:14:41
  Speaker 1: he was arrested for calling in a bomb threat to
• 1:14:44
  Speaker 1: City Hall. This is real life. This is the person
• 1:14:48
  Speaker 1: that's supposed to take the call because she's in Africa.
• 1:14:51
  Speaker 2: Why did he call in a bomb threat to City Hall?
• 1:14:55
  Speaker 1: Great question. I was... You know, so that's who we're
• 1:15:01
  Speaker 1: dealing with. So when they're like, oh, Spencer, you don't
• 1:15:04
  Speaker 1: have the experience to be mayor. Well, I promised my
• 1:15:06
  Speaker 1: deputy mayors that I have on deck. They aren't calling
• 1:15:08
  Speaker 1: in any bomb threats to City Hall. So we're already
• 1:15:11
  Speaker 1: starting ahead of the curve. Also, I'm not going in
• 1:15:15
  Speaker 1: to steal taxpayer money. I'm going in to stop all this. So, again,
• 1:15:19
  Speaker 1: I really believe there's enough. common sense people that see
• 1:15:23
  Speaker 1: that I'm not doing politics. I don't want to do
• 1:15:26
  Speaker 1: any of this. Politics are, it's a job. These people
• 1:15:29
  Speaker 1: are career politicians. I never want to be a career politician.
• 1:15:32
  Speaker 1: Before my house burned down, I was selling my healing crystals. They,
• 1:15:36
  Speaker 1: just to be clear, they have no magical powers. They
• 1:15:39
  Speaker 1: all burned in my house. So anybody, you know, you're
• 1:15:42
  Speaker 1: buying them. They, uh, you know, I thought that had
• 1:15:44
  Speaker 1: protection energy.
• 1:15:46
  Speaker 2: They don't.
• 1:15:46
  Speaker 1: So You know, and feeding hummingbirds and taking my kids
• 1:15:51
  Speaker 1: to school. That was my dream life. And they burned
• 1:15:55
  Speaker 1: it down. And now they have their worst nightmare coming
• 1:15:58
  Speaker 1: to just undo the whole thing.
• 1:16:00
  Speaker 2: Former Los Angeles deputy deputy mayor of public safety agrees
• 1:16:03
  Speaker 2: to plead guilty to threatening to bomb L.A. City Hall
• 1:16:06
  Speaker 2: last year. Now, what was the reason Brian K. Williams,
• 1:16:10
  Speaker 2: 61 of Pasadena, is charged in a single count? Information
• 1:16:13
  Speaker 2: with threats regarding fire and explosives. It doesn't have a reason,
• 1:16:17
  Speaker 2: but it says what he did.
• 1:16:18
  Speaker 1: You know, I don't think there's ever a good reason.
• 1:16:22
  Speaker 2: I mean, I would like to hear his reason. Bomb threat.
• 1:16:27
  Speaker 2: I received a call on my city cell phone at
• 1:16:30
  Speaker 2: 1048 this morning. The mail caller stated that he was
• 1:16:33
  Speaker 2: tired of the city support of Israel and he's decided
• 1:16:36
  Speaker 2: to place a bomb in City Hall. So that's it.
• 1:16:39
  Speaker 2: It might be in the rotunda. I immediately contacted– so
• 1:16:42
  Speaker 2: it was about Israel. Wow. He made it up. Up
• 1:16:47
  Speaker 2: here it says that he used his Google Voice application
• 1:16:50
  Speaker 2: on his personal cell phone to place a call to
• 1:16:52
  Speaker 2: a city-issued cell phone. Wow. He then left the meeting
• 1:16:55
  Speaker 2: and called the chief of staff. Doesn't say why. What
• 1:16:58
  Speaker 2: a fucking idiot.
• 1:17:00
  Speaker 1: I will say Mayor– Is that guy still employed?
• 1:17:03
  Speaker 2: Find out if that guy is still employed.
• 1:17:05
  Speaker 1: I would think not. I would imagine.
• 1:17:08
  Speaker 2: Oh, no.
• 1:17:09
  Speaker 1: I mean, I think he's gone to federal prison.
• 1:17:12
  Speaker 2: Oh, he's facing 10 years? Yeah, I think so. I
• 1:17:14
  Speaker 2: wonder if he has paid leave. Probably. He's in federal prison. Oh, God.
• 1:17:19
  Speaker 1: But notice, he at least, Mayor Bass, with her cell phone,
• 1:17:23
  Speaker 1: the whole week of the Palisades fire, she deleted all
• 1:17:26
  Speaker 1: her text messages.
• 1:17:27
  Speaker 2: I wonder why.
• 1:17:28
  Speaker 1: Oh, you know, this is, they're like a terrorist cell. Well,
• 1:17:33
  Speaker 1: you're breaking burner phones.
• 1:17:35
  Speaker 2: How the fuck are you even allowed to do that?
• 1:17:37
  Speaker 2: Former L.A. deputy mayor sentenced to probation and $ 5, 000 fine.
• 1:17:41
  Speaker 2: That's it. Just probation.
• 1:17:45
  Speaker 1: Well, in his defense, his mayor was spending– I think
• 1:17:48
  Speaker 1: she went to Cuba 30 times to learn how to
• 1:17:51
  Speaker 1: build bombs and bomb America when she was part of
• 1:17:53
  Speaker 1: the Veniziaramos Brigade. So Karen Bass– How old was she
• 1:17:59
  Speaker 1: when that was happening? 1920. And she never, ever said
• 1:18:02
  Speaker 1: she had any problem with being like a Cuban communist
• 1:18:06
  Speaker 1: terrorist until Biden was going to pick her as VP.
• 1:18:10
  Speaker 1: And then they made her say, I denounce that I
• 1:18:13
  Speaker 1: was– Trying to blow up the Capitol with my with
• 1:18:16
  Speaker 1: my terrorist cell when I was younger. But for all
• 1:18:19
  Speaker 1: those years, she never said anything. When Fidel Castro died,
• 1:18:23
  Speaker 1: she said something like, rest in peace, El Comandante. What?
• 1:18:28
  Speaker 2: Yes. No way.
• 1:18:29
  Speaker 1: Yes.
• 1:18:29
  Speaker 2: You can find it.
• 1:18:31
  Speaker 1: And then it gets even better. So.
• 1:18:32
  Speaker 2: Oh, well, hey, guys, relax. Williams was just suffering from
• 1:18:36
  Speaker 2: stress and anxiety when he called the threats.
• 1:18:38
  Speaker 1: Oh, poor guy.
• 1:18:40
  Speaker 2: No big deal.
• 1:18:40
  Speaker 1: Poor guy. Overworked.
• 1:18:41
  Speaker 2: Stress and anxiety and somehow or another it was about Israel?
• 1:18:45
  Speaker 1: Not to mention these people would just get away with
• 1:18:49
  Speaker 1: all of this. They keep getting away with it. That's
• 1:18:51
  Speaker 1: the problem with the media. What I've learned from being
• 1:18:54
  Speaker 1: part of the television world. You notice why do they
• 1:18:58
  Speaker 1: let the mayor and the city councils get away with
• 1:19:01
  Speaker 1: all of, you know, talking about this. At the end
• 1:19:03
  Speaker 1: of the day, that's their talent. It's like a soap opera.
• 1:19:07
  Speaker 1: They got to keep filming with the mayor and the
• 1:19:10
  Speaker 1: city council. If they just air them out, they're not
• 1:19:13
  Speaker 1: picking up the call. It's like a production.
• 1:19:15
  Speaker 2: Exactly. They don't have content anymore.
• 1:19:17
  Speaker 1: Exactly. So the local news needs to keep it.
• 1:19:21
  Speaker 2: Right. Right. They don't have access anymore. Yeah.
• 1:19:23
  Speaker 1: So that's why I'm like, why? Because I talk to
• 1:19:25
  Speaker 1: these people off camera and they're all like.
• 1:19:27
  Speaker 2: Like an organized crime organization.
• 1:19:29
  Speaker 1: They're like, please. I'm like, why aren't you?
• 1:19:33
  Speaker 2: It's organized crime. I mean, it's like they pay people off.
• 1:19:37
  Speaker 2: They've got little deals. You wash my back. I wash yours.
• 1:19:42
  Speaker 2: Come on.
• 1:19:43
  Speaker 1: Yeah. And so thankfully, these people are like, aren't you
• 1:19:46
  Speaker 1: scared of these people? I'm like, what are they going
• 1:19:47
  Speaker 1: to burn my house down again? Are they going to
• 1:19:49
  Speaker 1: burn my mom's house down again? So it gives you
• 1:19:52
  Speaker 1: like a confidence. What are they going to do?
• 1:19:55
  Speaker 2: The crime in Los Angeles, when you talk to average people,
• 1:19:58
  Speaker 2: like the people that I know that live there, they're
• 1:20:00
  Speaker 2: fucking terrified. They say break-ins are just commonplace now. It
• 1:20:04
  Speaker 2: used to be very rare. You get home invasions constantly.
• 1:20:08
  Speaker 2: I mean Ted Sarandos, his mother-in-law was killed in a
• 1:20:10
  Speaker 2: home invasion. And they're happening all the time. It's because
• 1:20:14
  Speaker 2: there's no police response and they know there's not going
• 1:20:17
  Speaker 2: to be a police response. So more people are hiring
• 1:20:20
  Speaker 2: private security agents. It's very difficult to get a gun
• 1:20:23
  Speaker 2: or at least a concealed carry permit. It's very difficult.
• 1:20:26
  Speaker 1: In defense of L.A. County Sheriff and LAPD, they have
• 1:20:31
  Speaker 1: gotten better at CCWs now because of the law.
• 1:20:34
  Speaker 2: Because of the crime. It's not the sheriff's fault. The
• 1:20:38
  Speaker 2: sheriff wants it.
• 1:20:39
  Speaker 1: Yeah, and they don't have the staff even to process it.
• 1:20:41
  Speaker 1: So it just takes up to a year. But I
• 1:20:44
  Speaker 1: know they all– that's the thing. I talk to so
• 1:20:46
  Speaker 1: many sheriffs, so many LAPDs, so many firefighters. Everybody is
• 1:20:50
  Speaker 1: just broken. Their spirits are broken. Why are we doing this?
• 1:20:55
  Speaker 1: Why don't we just go to Newport Beach or Huntington?
• 1:20:59
  Speaker 2: Or Florida.
• 1:20:59
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 1:21:01
  Speaker 2: Just leave the state.
• 1:21:02
  Speaker 1: What am I doing? They keep saying.
• 1:21:03
  Speaker 2: Well, this is the thing that Newsom always chimes in
• 1:21:05
  Speaker 2: about how much money California brings in, how much many
• 1:21:08
  Speaker 2: venture capitalists are in California, how much money in tech
• 1:21:12
  Speaker 2: is in California.
• 1:21:13
  Speaker 1: Right.
• 1:21:14
  Speaker 2: But it has nothing to do with your government. It
• 1:21:17
  Speaker 2: has– in spite of your government, they're doing that.
• 1:21:21
  Speaker 1: And they're leaving. Hollywood was the greatest thing– the amount
• 1:21:25
  Speaker 1: of money Hollywood made for Los Angeles from the grips
• 1:21:29
  Speaker 1: to the camera operators to the glam people to the costume.
• 1:21:33
  Speaker 1: People don't understand. People hate like, oh, Hollywood, stupid movie
• 1:21:38
  Speaker 1: stars are so rich. They forget about the ecosystem that
• 1:21:43
  Speaker 1: connects to that, say, Tom Cruise. The amount of money
• 1:21:47
  Speaker 1: is gone. And, for instance, just last week, they finally
• 1:21:50
  Speaker 1: got Baywatch to come back to L.A. Baywatch starts shooting
• 1:21:53
  Speaker 1: for like two days, and then they kick them off
• 1:21:56
  Speaker 1: the beach. There's all these permit problems. So I write
• 1:21:58
  Speaker 1: a sub stack calling this out, calling out the mayor.
• 1:22:02
  Speaker 1: Next thing you know— They come back and the mayor
• 1:22:05
  Speaker 1: makes a deal. What's funniest thing right now is whatever
• 1:22:08
  Speaker 1: I post and do, the mayor is now doing. Like
• 1:22:11
  Speaker 1: I said the other day, I'm getting rid of the
• 1:22:13
  Speaker 1: whole fire commission. This fire commission has been there for
• 1:22:15
  Speaker 1: like 10 years, I think. After I do this post
• 1:22:18
  Speaker 1: or whatever, boom, four out of five of the fire
• 1:22:20
  Speaker 1: commission resign. So they're trying to just get ahead of
• 1:22:23
  Speaker 1: all the things of what I'm saying, which is fun
• 1:22:25
  Speaker 1: because already I'm like the mayor. So this is great.
• 1:22:29
  Speaker 2: Well, it's also they can't possibly do enough without completely
• 1:22:33
  Speaker 2: undermining their entire organization. They're always going to have so
• 1:22:36
  Speaker 2: much fraud and waste that your case will always be solid.
• 1:22:40
  Speaker 2: There's no way. There's no they would have to literally
• 1:22:42
  Speaker 2: like tank everything they're doing that got them into position.
• 1:22:46
  Speaker 1: And if they talk about how much of a failure,
• 1:22:49
  Speaker 1: then they're definitely not keeping their job. Right. Which is,
• 1:22:52
  Speaker 1: that's the problem with all of, they're all in a,
• 1:22:55
  Speaker 1: ready for this, the lady, Janice Quinones. that was in
• 1:23:00
  Speaker 1: charge of the LADWP that drained. So in the Pacific Palisades,
• 1:23:05
  Speaker 1: there was the San Ynez Reservoir. It had 117 million
• 1:23:09
  Speaker 1: gallons of water. When it was created, the engineer, he's
• 1:23:13
  Speaker 1: on the cover of LA Times back in the day,
• 1:23:14
  Speaker 1: and he's talking about he built this for wildfire protection. Now,
• 1:23:19
  Speaker 1: in their defense, the city and LADWP says, that was
• 1:23:22
  Speaker 1: drinking water. No one was drinking this water, I promise you.
• 1:23:25
  Speaker 1: So there was a tear on this wall. Drinking water,
• 1:23:28
  Speaker 1: allegedly the firefighting water. So they drain the entire reservoir
• 1:23:35
  Speaker 1: because of a little tear that would have cost $ 120, 000
• 1:23:37
  Speaker 1: to repair for over a year. This woman was making $ 750, 000
• 1:23:38
  Speaker 1: a year as the head of LADWP, twice her predecessor
• 1:23:40
  Speaker 1: that Mayor Bass brought in. Keep in mind, if you
• 1:23:52
  Speaker 1: make that much money, do you know what the people
• 1:23:54
  Speaker 1: below her are making? 500, 400. These people get so
• 1:23:58
  Speaker 1: much money and they spend over a year to fix
• 1:24:01
  Speaker 1: a tear. And it's back to the mafia thing. Oh,
• 1:24:04
  Speaker 1: I'm sure it's like, oh, we got to use this
• 1:24:06
  Speaker 1: contractor because we don't have an open bid. Oh, that's
• 1:24:09
  Speaker 1: too cheap. Who knows the conspiracy to why they didn't
• 1:24:12
  Speaker 1: tear it? So while that's drained. Next door to my
• 1:24:15
  Speaker 1: house that I watched weekly, the local LAFD would do training.
• 1:24:19
  Speaker 1: They'd hook up to it. I had a five million
• 1:24:21
  Speaker 1: gallon reservoir for firefighting. So while they're doing that one,
• 1:24:25
  Speaker 1: they're like, oh, we should fix this one too. They
• 1:24:27
  Speaker 1: drain that one. And they're like, oh, we drained it.
• 1:24:30
  Speaker 1: When we refill it, there's some issues. We can't refill it.
• 1:24:34
  Speaker 1: They leave two reservoirs empty. Back, rewind what I told you.
• 1:24:38
  Speaker 1: In a season that's the driest ever, that they've actually
• 1:24:43
  Speaker 1: had a fire, I think in 2019, where there wasn't
• 1:24:47
  Speaker 1: water in the reservoir. And thankfully there was no wind.
• 1:24:50
  Speaker 1: And they had to drive water tenders up onto the
• 1:24:53
  Speaker 1: hillside for the helicopters to dip. Because that's the key.
• 1:24:56
  Speaker 1: What people don't understand is like, oh, this... Nothing could
• 1:24:59
  Speaker 1: have stopped this fire. You know, people that defend these people.
• 1:25:02
  Speaker 1: If the reservoir had the water in it, the helicopters,
• 1:25:06
  Speaker 1: these $ 17 million helicopters that Newsom loves to do the
• 1:25:08
  Speaker 1: photo shoots in front of, how fast they are, would
• 1:25:11
  Speaker 1: have had to fly less than 30 seconds from the
• 1:25:14
  Speaker 1: origin of the fire again when the winds were fine
• 1:25:17
  Speaker 1: for six hours or in the initial thing. But instead,
• 1:25:20
  Speaker 1: those helicopters had to fly all the way to Malibu,
• 1:25:23
  Speaker 1: to Pepperdine College, and all the way to Encino to
• 1:25:26
  Speaker 1: get the water for the helicopters to fly all the
• 1:25:28
  Speaker 1: way back to where the fire was next door to
• 1:25:31
  Speaker 1: where the empty reservoir is. So they spent 66% of
• 1:25:34
  Speaker 1: their time not fighting the fire, going to get the water.
• 1:25:39
  Speaker 1: So it's back to, like, why I say it's Chinatown.
• 1:25:43
  Speaker 1: We have this LADWP that... These people get all this money.
• 1:25:47
  Speaker 1: They increase everyone's rates. This year, everyone's rates went up 11%.
• 1:25:52
  Speaker 1: They're going to go up 7% annually for no reason.
• 1:25:55
  Speaker 1: You're not getting alkaline water out of it. I'm convinced
• 1:25:58
  Speaker 1: we used to joke like, oh, there's fluoride in the water.
• 1:26:01
  Speaker 1: How much fentanyl is in our damn water right now?
• 1:26:03
  Speaker 1: I mean, we're not getting better water for that 7% increase.
• 1:26:08
  Speaker 1: They're doubling everyone's trash, even though the entire city has
• 1:26:12
  Speaker 1: more trash than I talked to this guy, Juan, from
• 1:26:15
  Speaker 1: Clean LA. He goes around. He's from Ecuador. He does
• 1:26:18
  Speaker 1: these mingas where he moved here from Ecuador. And he
• 1:26:21
  Speaker 1: said it's the dirtiest thing he's ever seen his whole life.
• 1:26:23
  Speaker 1: So he just started cleaning up trash and posting it.
• 1:26:25
  Speaker 1: And now people will give him GoFundMe money. And he
• 1:26:28
  Speaker 1: cleans more of the city than the city. And I
• 1:26:30
  Speaker 1: had him on my podcast. I said, what's the problem here, Juan?
• 1:26:33
  Speaker 1: And he said, people don't care, Spencer. And I said,
• 1:26:36
  Speaker 1: so I'm mayor, I hire you. Are we going to
• 1:26:39
  Speaker 1: get the city clean? He's like, Spencer, they want a
• 1:26:40
  Speaker 1: billion dollars next year for the trash. He's like, I
• 1:26:44
  Speaker 1: can do this for easy, $ 500 million. I said, okay,
• 1:26:48
  Speaker 1: you're hired, Juan. I said, what are we going to
• 1:26:49
  Speaker 1: do with them? He said, we got to fire all
• 1:26:50
  Speaker 1: these people, Spencer. They don't care. He said, it's dirtier
• 1:26:53
  Speaker 1: than any third world country he's ever been. So they're
• 1:26:56
  Speaker 1: doubling our trash rates. They're doubling our sewage. So more money,
• 1:27:02
  Speaker 1: more money. It's back to Taxes. Oh, the rich need
• 1:27:06
  Speaker 1: to give more? If the quality of life just keeps
• 1:27:09
  Speaker 1: getting worse and worse, why would anybody with money stay
• 1:27:13
  Speaker 1: in California or Los Angeles when they know the fraud,
• 1:27:17
  Speaker 1: the waste, the corruption? People that are rich, billionaires, whoever
• 1:27:21
  Speaker 1: they are, if the city lights all work, right now
• 1:27:24
  Speaker 1: the two mayors I'm running for let, you know about
• 1:27:27
  Speaker 1: the copper theft? There's no working lights in the city
• 1:27:30
  Speaker 1: of LA because they let, they got rid of the
• 1:27:32
  Speaker 1: copper task force because they obviously have Can't fund the LAPD.
• 1:27:35
  Speaker 1: So they let everyone steal all the copper. So everything's
• 1:27:38
  Speaker 1: dark in the whole city. So Mayor Bass goes last
• 1:27:41
  Speaker 1: week and makes a press conference. I solved it. I'm
• 1:27:44
  Speaker 1: going to spend $ 200 million and we're going to do
• 1:27:46
  Speaker 1: solar power lights. You think these thieves aren't going to
• 1:27:49
  Speaker 1: then pivot to stealing solar batteries and slinging those? No,
• 1:27:53
  Speaker 1: we got to stop the criminals. The best video right now,
• 1:27:56
  Speaker 1: I think, there's a couple of good ones. This Nithya Raman,
• 1:27:58
  Speaker 1: the Democratic Socialist who's running for mayor.
• 1:28:01
  Speaker 2: She is.
• 1:28:02
  Speaker 1: is asked about all the Cadillac converters that are being stolen.
• 1:28:05
  Speaker 1: She said, well, Toyota is making these too easy to steal.
• 1:28:09
  Speaker 1: It's like leaving your MacBook on the front seat. This
• 1:28:13
  Speaker 1: is real talk. I'm not kidding. It's Toyota's fault.
• 1:28:16
  Speaker 2: Toyota's fault that people are stealing catalytic converters.
• 1:28:19
  Speaker 1: Yes. That's hilarious.
• 1:28:22
  Speaker 2: Every fucking car has a catalytic converter that just sits underneath.
• 1:28:25
  Speaker 2: You can just saw off the exhaust and take it out.
• 1:28:27
  Speaker 2: If you know anything about cars, it's not fucking Toyota.
• 1:28:30
  Speaker 2: It's every car.
• 1:28:31
  Speaker 1: Oh, here's another great one of her lines. She's at
• 1:28:35
  Speaker 1: our city council meeting. She's the city council member. All
• 1:28:37
  Speaker 1: these moms and parents are saying, we don't want... these
• 1:28:40
  Speaker 1: encampments where there's two known gangs selling fentanyl through holes
• 1:28:43
  Speaker 1: in the tents. The zombies are everywhere. These parents are saying,
• 1:28:48
  Speaker 1: we don't want these encampments, which are illegal. They're asking
• 1:28:52
  Speaker 1: the city council member to enforce the law. And she
• 1:28:55
  Speaker 1: argues with the parents and says, there's no difference if
• 1:28:57
  Speaker 1: the encampment's one foot or 500 feet from the school.
• 1:29:01
  Speaker 1: All the parents boo her and she goes... whatever, and
• 1:29:04
  Speaker 1: rolls her eyes. These are the people that are going
• 1:29:08
  Speaker 1: to show up and vote for me, these moms and
• 1:29:10
  Speaker 1: these dads.
• 1:29:10
  Speaker 2: That are done. There's a giant amount of people in
• 1:29:13
  Speaker 2: California that have been red-pilled that just realize, like, whatever
• 1:29:18
  Speaker 2: you thought your government was when you thought you were
• 1:29:21
  Speaker 2: voting for a progressive, kind, compassionate government, that is a
• 1:29:27
  Speaker 2: sheep outfit over a wolf. It's not what you have.
• 1:29:31
  Speaker 2: It's not what you're getting. What you're getting is organized crime.
• 1:29:33
  Speaker 2: What you're getting is organized crime that is using this
• 1:29:36
  Speaker 2: filter of compassionate, caring, inclusive government. And it's not real.
• 1:29:43
  Speaker 2: It's not real. What you're getting is more homeless, more crime,
• 1:29:46
  Speaker 2: more murder, more chaos, more– maybe not more murder. Maybe
• 1:29:50
  Speaker 2: it's more shootings.
• 1:29:51
  Speaker 1: Almost murder.
• 1:29:52
  Speaker 2: Yeah, maybe more shootings and stabbings, but better medical care
• 1:29:56
  Speaker 2: is keeping them alive. But the idea that crime is down,
• 1:29:59
  Speaker 2: it's like anecdotally, you ask anybody in L.A., they would
• 1:30:02
  Speaker 2: not agree to that. Most people think crime is up.
• 1:30:04
  Speaker 2: Home invasions are fucking ubiquitous. It's everywhere.
• 1:30:08
  Speaker 1: So I spoke with these SWAT guys the other day
• 1:30:10
  Speaker 1: and I said, you know, are you guys having a
• 1:30:12
  Speaker 1: lot of, you know, gang standout? He said, actually, no,
• 1:30:15
  Speaker 1: the gang's business as usual. They know when we show up.
• 1:30:19
  Speaker 1: The hands up, they're going to get out in a week.
• 1:30:22
  Speaker 1: They're professional. They're just for the money. He says, our
• 1:30:24
  Speaker 1: biggest call outs now are mental health episodes that the
• 1:30:30
  Speaker 1: person doesn't know where they are or whatever. And I said,
• 1:30:32
  Speaker 1: but what about all these home invasion crews that are
• 1:30:36
  Speaker 1: coming in, robbing everyone's house? He goes, there's nothing we
• 1:30:39
  Speaker 1: could do. He says, these people all know they're getting
• 1:30:42
  Speaker 1: out in two weeks. I said, what do you mean?
• 1:30:44
  Speaker 1: Is that a felony? They're coming in with guns?
• 1:30:46
  Speaker 2: He said, nope.
• 1:30:47
  Speaker 1: You can go break into a house with a gun
• 1:30:50
  Speaker 1: while people are there, families, rob them, tie them up
• 1:30:54
  Speaker 1: and get out.
• 1:30:55
  Speaker 2: Not only that, if you shoot those people while they're
• 1:30:58
  Speaker 2: in your house, you'll be prosecuted.
• 1:30:59
  Speaker 1: Yeah. You got to prove you are fearing for your life.
• 1:31:02
  Speaker 2: You're supposed to leave your house rather than defend your
• 1:31:06
  Speaker 2: house against people with weapons that enter your house.
• 1:31:09
  Speaker 1: I personally would advise to lock yourself in a closet
• 1:31:14
  Speaker 1: and have your firearm and have a strong point. Yeah.
• 1:31:18
  Speaker 2: But even that, like what you're going to just let
• 1:31:20
  Speaker 2: someone break into your house and steal your childhoods, you know, whatever,
• 1:31:25
  Speaker 2: whatever they're stealing, whatever, steal your fucking jewelry and you
• 1:31:29
  Speaker 2: have to heirlooms and whatever you've worked your whole life
• 1:31:32
  Speaker 2: to earn. Yeah. That's fucking insane. It's insane. And the
• 1:31:37
  Speaker 2: fact that you have this no cash bail situation, you're
• 1:31:40
  Speaker 2: just letting these people out on the street that are
• 1:31:42
  Speaker 2: violent criminals, repeat offenders.
• 1:31:44
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 1:31:44
  Speaker 2: It's like if you wanted to destroy L.A., that's how
• 1:31:47
  Speaker 2: you would do it.
• 1:31:48
  Speaker 1: They're doing it. And that's why I get so– My
• 1:31:51
  Speaker 1: hardest thing every day now is just staying not too
• 1:31:54
  Speaker 1: pumped up because now that I'm in this fight and
• 1:31:56
  Speaker 1: I have all the messages all day long, everywhere I
• 1:31:59
  Speaker 1: go on the street, people, old ladies hugging me, crying, like, please,
• 1:32:03
  Speaker 1: I'm scared. The pressure I feel to get in here
• 1:32:07
  Speaker 1: and just undo this, unplug this. And I met with
• 1:32:10
  Speaker 1: a lot of business owners and they said, the mayor,
• 1:32:13
  Speaker 1: the city council, they all know what needs to be done,
• 1:32:16
  Speaker 1: but they don't want to push the buttons. Somebody needs
• 1:32:19
  Speaker 1: to just come in and push them up. If there's
• 1:32:21
  Speaker 1: one thing I know, I will push these buttons and
• 1:32:24
  Speaker 1: we're going to get the city under control because it
• 1:32:26
  Speaker 1: just starts with enforcing the law. So I have a
• 1:32:29
  Speaker 1: deputy mayor that I can't say who he is because
• 1:32:31
  Speaker 1: of fear of retaliation at this point because of issues
• 1:32:35
  Speaker 1: with the city right now who's in power. But this
• 1:32:37
  Speaker 1: deputy mayor who will help me enforce the law made
• 1:32:40
  Speaker 1: it very clear. Once you start enforcing the law, criminals leave.
• 1:32:44
  Speaker 1: They know, oh, the gig's up. They will go somewhere else.
• 1:32:48
  Speaker 1: Once you start making arrests... People will leave this idea. Oh,
• 1:32:52
  Speaker 1: there's no room in the jails. Where are you going
• 1:32:54
  Speaker 1: to put all these people? Once you start enforcing law,
• 1:32:56
  Speaker 1: they will leave. And it's as simple as that. He
• 1:32:59
  Speaker 1: was suggesting for two weeks, you go around the city,
• 1:33:02
  Speaker 1: put up signs, no more fentanyl at the park, no
• 1:33:05
  Speaker 1: more open drug use, no more encampments. You have two-week countdown.
• 1:33:09
  Speaker 1: You tell everyone. You give them a warning. So if
• 1:33:11
  Speaker 1: you want to leave in advance, most of these people,
• 1:33:15
  Speaker 1: which is what I hear the most from law enforcement,
• 1:33:17
  Speaker 1: are not from Los Angeles. They have been flown in,
• 1:33:20
  Speaker 1: bussed in, back to the business. There's a body business
• 1:33:24
  Speaker 1: where they bring homeless people. to the city to make
• 1:33:28
  Speaker 1: the money off them. They're from all over the country,
• 1:33:30
  Speaker 1: they're brought here because this is the epicenter where they're
• 1:33:34
  Speaker 1: making all the money. So you don't think these NGOs,
• 1:33:37
  Speaker 1: when they hear Spencer Pratt's the new mayor, he's got
• 1:33:39
  Speaker 1: the IRS criminal investigation team, they're gonna take this scam,
• 1:33:43
  Speaker 1: I'm sorry, to other states and cities, the show's gonna
• 1:33:45
  Speaker 1: go on the road and they're gonna open up shop
• 1:33:48
  Speaker 1: where there's a mayor that lets this go down And
• 1:33:50
  Speaker 1: it will stop in L.A. And this trickle down effect
• 1:33:53
  Speaker 1: when restaurants don't have zombies in front of them. You
• 1:33:56
  Speaker 1: can go back to having outdoor seating because it doesn't
• 1:33:59
  Speaker 1: smell like human poop. The whole town smells like the
• 1:34:01
  Speaker 1: whole city smells like human poop and pee. It's crazy.
• 1:34:05
  Speaker 1: So when you get rid of that, not to mention
• 1:34:07
  Speaker 1: you're in my best plan. Yeah. I'm bringing in the CDC.
• 1:34:11
  Speaker 1: Los Angeles love the white suits and during COVID, they
• 1:34:16
  Speaker 1: love CDC. I'm bringing in the CDC because do you
• 1:34:19
  Speaker 1: know how much typhoid and medieval diseases are in these
• 1:34:22
  Speaker 1: encampments that nobody's swabbing? Mayor Pratt is bringing the CDC
• 1:34:26
  Speaker 1: and we're going to swab all of them. And once
• 1:34:28
  Speaker 1: we get those test results back, I promise you the
• 1:34:31
  Speaker 1: federal government will be shutting down streets with white tents everywhere.
• 1:34:35
  Speaker 1: And hosing things down with chlorine. God knows what, because
• 1:34:39
  Speaker 1: people are living in the sewers. I don't know if
• 1:34:41
  Speaker 1: you saw last week, that lady pops out of the sewer.
• 1:34:44
  Speaker 1: That one from clean LA did a video. It went viral.
• 1:34:47
  Speaker 1: She was living in like in the sewer, a whole
• 1:34:51
  Speaker 1: full thing. What is what's with poop and pee? You know,
• 1:34:56
  Speaker 1: what type of diseases are going on in there? CDC
• 1:34:59
  Speaker 1: will clean these streets again. People are like, Oh, Spencer
• 1:35:01
  Speaker 1: is not going to have the resources with the Olympics coming.
• 1:35:05
  Speaker 1: We have Homeland Security. We got DEA. Another thing, we're
• 1:35:10
  Speaker 1: just letting, I talked to the dog rescue people. They
• 1:35:12
  Speaker 1: say you stand on Skid Row or any street in LA,
• 1:35:15
  Speaker 1: you can watch the drug dealers just pulling up in Escalades, Teslas,
• 1:35:18
  Speaker 1: all the nicest cars, just slaying, no problem. Mayor Pratt,
• 1:35:24
  Speaker 1: DEA's coming in. ATF, we have so much funding when
• 1:35:28
  Speaker 1: you bring the feds in to enforce the law to
• 1:35:31
  Speaker 1: get the streets ready for the Olympics. The current administration,
• 1:35:34
  Speaker 1: they want to play pretend, get that money to launder. Oh,
• 1:35:37
  Speaker 1: we need that billion dollars. We'll clean the streets.
• 1:35:39
  Speaker 2: No, no, no.
• 1:35:40
  Speaker 1: You come do it. Help me out. So it's not
• 1:35:42
  Speaker 1: like I won't be able to do this. And people,
• 1:35:44
  Speaker 1: when they hear me say that, they're like, sorry, guy.
• 1:35:47
  Speaker 2: So let's– We haven't even talked jujitsu.
• 1:35:51
  Speaker 1: Are we going to put on geese or what?
• 1:35:54
  Speaker 2: Let's talk about day one. So day one, realistically, what
• 1:35:59
  Speaker 2: can you do and how do you implement all these
• 1:36:02
  Speaker 2: ideas that you have?
• 1:36:04
  Speaker 1: So right now, what I've learned is all the smartest,
• 1:36:07
  Speaker 1: brightest people would never want to come work in L.A.
• 1:36:09
  Speaker 1: because they know any of their ideas are not going
• 1:36:12
  Speaker 1: to be used. The system is in play. The amount
• 1:36:14
  Speaker 1: of private industry, like, for instance, a CEO's house burned
• 1:36:20
  Speaker 1: down who sold his company to Warren Buffett. We're talking big,
• 1:36:25
  Speaker 1: legit CEO's. He said, I'll come in. I'll work for
• 1:36:28
  Speaker 1: a dollar a year. You know, there's people like this
• 1:36:31
  Speaker 1: that want to get L.A. back, that I'm going to
• 1:36:33
  Speaker 1: surround myself. People like Rick Caruso. He wants to get building.
• 1:36:38
  Speaker 1: You lean on these people that they talk about it.
• 1:36:40
  Speaker 1: They just don't want to go into this toxic environment
• 1:36:43
  Speaker 1: that you can't. It's a cartel. They know there's only
• 1:36:46
  Speaker 1: so much they can do unless there's a mayor like
• 1:36:48
  Speaker 1: me that's going to let them do it. I just
• 1:36:50
  Speaker 1: got a phone with Steve Moscow. He was the mayor.
• 1:36:52
  Speaker 1: president of multiple studios, Sony. I'm going to bring him
• 1:36:56
  Speaker 1: in with an Avengers team for Hollywood, how we clean
• 1:36:59
  Speaker 1: up all these permit issues and get Hollywood back and
• 1:37:03
  Speaker 1: make the incentives. My idea is literally not charged. You
• 1:37:06
  Speaker 1: want to shoot in LA?
• 1:37:07
  Speaker 2: We need.
• 1:37:09
  Speaker 1: We're going to charge you. We need work. And then
• 1:37:12
  Speaker 1: we can, in six years, we can come back and
• 1:37:14
  Speaker 1: worry about that, but bring the business back. So meeting
• 1:37:17
  Speaker 1: with the Ted Sarandos, putting these actual commissions, not to mention,
• 1:37:21
  Speaker 1: I already met with the, there's the community budget advocates.
• 1:37:25
  Speaker 1: They're like LA budget experts. They presented seven budget initiatives
• 1:37:30
  Speaker 1: to Mayor Bassett and do one. I'm going to do
• 1:37:32
  Speaker 1: all seven. These type of budget things where you're, You
• 1:37:35
  Speaker 1: don't just increase all these payments to city unions or
• 1:37:39
  Speaker 1: whatever if the budget doesn't have the money. There's going
• 1:37:42
  Speaker 1: to be a commission that looks everything publicly for 30 days.
• 1:37:46
  Speaker 1: Right now it's just her CAO. It's like having your
• 1:37:48
  Speaker 1: accountant and check your taxes like from the IRS. It's
• 1:37:52
  Speaker 1: all– we need to have outside independent people checking all
• 1:37:56
  Speaker 1: this stuff. So it's more of– again, I'm talking with
• 1:37:59
  Speaker 1: Chief Garcia who's retiring, who's the GOAT firefighter to be
• 1:38:03
  Speaker 1: one of my deputy officials. to be one of my
• 1:38:05
  Speaker 1: deputy mayors of fire and public safety, not a deputy
• 1:38:08
  Speaker 1: mayor that calls bomb threats into the city. So just
• 1:38:11
  Speaker 1: using experienced people that want to get LA and surrounding myself.
• 1:38:15
  Speaker 1: One thing I know I have is common sense. Now,
• 1:38:19
  Speaker 1: all the things that I need, the professionals, you bring
• 1:38:22
  Speaker 1: them in and they'll want to work with me because
• 1:38:23
  Speaker 1: they know they hear my message. Oh, he's going to
• 1:38:26
  Speaker 1: undo all this. You're telling me for $ 750, 000, I couldn't
• 1:38:31
  Speaker 1: find a better LADWP CEO to make sure there's waters
• 1:38:36
  Speaker 1: in the reservoir, figure out how to get rates down.
• 1:38:38
  Speaker 1: We have plenty of money. We're paying these jobs. We're
• 1:38:41
  Speaker 1: clearly not getting the proper talent. Obviously look at the city.
• 1:38:45
  Speaker 2: So getting talent that's ideologically aligned.
• 1:38:49
  Speaker 1: Yeah, exactly.
• 1:38:49
  Speaker 2: And it's a part of this whole cartel.
• 1:38:51
  Speaker 1: Exactly.
• 1:38:52
  Speaker 2: And they know what they're doing. They know the game.
• 1:38:54
  Speaker 2: They play the game. They listen to whatever the top
• 1:38:57
  Speaker 2: dogs say and they follow business as usual and the
• 1:39:01
  Speaker 2: money keeps getting moved around.
• 1:39:02
  Speaker 1: To the point where I can poach talent from other
• 1:39:05
  Speaker 1: major cities that are successful at these jobs. I can
• 1:39:09
  Speaker 1: pay them more clearly than other places. Be like, wow,
• 1:39:12
  Speaker 1: you did this here? Come out to L.A. Don't worry.
• 1:39:15
  Speaker 1: The zombies will be gone by the time you get here.
• 1:39:17
  Speaker 1: But there are these people. There's tons of cities around
• 1:39:21
  Speaker 1: America that don't look like L.A. This is not some
• 1:39:25
  Speaker 1: rocket science I have to figure out.
• 1:39:26
  Speaker 2: You're in one of them right now.
• 1:39:29
  Speaker 1: There we go.
• 1:39:29
  Speaker 2: Yeah, drive around Austin. There's a homeless problem, but it's minor.
• 1:39:33
  Speaker 2: It's very small in comparison to Los Angeles.
• 1:39:36
  Speaker 1: Again, there will be homeless problems always.
• 1:39:39
  Speaker 2: Everywhere, always.
• 1:39:40
  Speaker 1: But the drug addiction, crime, where they run the streets,
• 1:39:45
  Speaker 1: that's a problem that can be fixed.
• 1:39:46
  Speaker 2: And encampments can be fixed. Look at what they did
• 1:39:49
  Speaker 2: in San Francisco when Xi Jinping was visiting San Francisco.
• 1:39:53
  Speaker 2: And Gavin Newsom literally said, when someone comes to your
• 1:39:57
  Speaker 2: house to visit— You clean up your house. How about
• 1:40:01
  Speaker 2: just keep your fucking house clean? Like, what are you saying?
• 1:40:04
  Speaker 2: If you have the resources to clean it up when
• 1:40:06
  Speaker 2: a foreign dignitary comes into town, why don't you just
• 1:40:09
  Speaker 2: keep your town clean?
• 1:40:10
  Speaker 1: And we're the ones that own the house, the taxpayers.
• 1:40:13
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 1:40:13
  Speaker 1: We already pay to keep the house clean. Back to
• 1:40:16
  Speaker 1: Newsom and fires. One of the things we need to
• 1:40:18
  Speaker 1: touch upon, back to climate change and him going to Munich.
• 1:40:22
  Speaker 1: And he talks about the fires. It's 365 days a year.
• 1:40:24
  Speaker 1: It's climate change. That's interesting for somebody whose fire service,
• 1:40:30
  Speaker 1: the Cal Fire, he only pays them seasonal. When the
• 1:40:34
  Speaker 1: Palisades fire hit, most of the Cal Fire was down
• 1:40:38
  Speaker 1: for the season. If it's a 360 forest, and that's
• 1:40:41
  Speaker 1: why the only reason Brentwood exists and didn't burn all
• 1:40:45
  Speaker 1: the way, just like the Palisades, is that Chief Garcia,
• 1:40:48
  Speaker 1: he was ready with the U.S. Forest Service because he
• 1:40:50
  Speaker 1: fought the feds to make sure he has a real
• 1:40:53
  Speaker 1: fire service that's 365 because he understands it could pop
• 1:40:57
  Speaker 1: off whenever. So he had all his tankers and helicopters.
• 1:41:00
  Speaker 1: They came to Palisades and saved the day. So this idea,
• 1:41:04
  Speaker 1: they just talk, talk. Oh, I spend all this money
• 1:41:07
  Speaker 1: on all these things. But then you don't. And then
• 1:41:09
  Speaker 1: he cut their salaries. I mean, we don't we could
• 1:41:11
  Speaker 1: do a whole episode on Newsom. I got to stay focused.
• 1:41:14
  Speaker 1: And it's back to.
• 1:41:15
  Speaker 2: It's amazing that that guy thinks he could be president.
• 1:41:18
  Speaker 1: Not when I'm mayor of L.A. because I'm going to cook.
• 1:41:20
  Speaker 2: I just don't understand how anybody could think that he
• 1:41:23
  Speaker 2: was he would do a good job. He ruined San Francisco.
• 1:41:26
  Speaker 2: Then he ruined California and now he wants to ruin
• 1:41:29
  Speaker 2: the country? Like what– how the fuck do they think–
• 1:41:33
  Speaker 2: because he talks well and he doesn't even talk well.
• 1:41:36
  Speaker 2: He just talks well for people that are in that position.
• 1:41:39
  Speaker 2: There's just a lot of people that talk way better
• 1:41:41
  Speaker 2: than him that aren't interested in the job.
• 1:41:44
  Speaker 1: Well, that's what we need to get past. And the audience,
• 1:41:46
  Speaker 1: the taxpayers, audience, whatever you want to call them, we
• 1:41:49
  Speaker 1: need to stop falling for performative politics. The mayor in L.A.,
• 1:41:53
  Speaker 1: she's so good at it. She gets everyone riled up
• 1:41:56
  Speaker 1: like she's Che Guevara fighting for freedom, but she can
• 1:41:59
  Speaker 1: do nothing. She literally, as mayor, cannot stop anything with
• 1:42:03
  Speaker 1: the federal government. It's all just an act. And same
• 1:42:06
  Speaker 1: with Newsom. They're like social media influencers. Do your job.
• 1:42:11
  Speaker 1: We're paying our tax money for you to make sure
• 1:42:14
  Speaker 1: our houses don't burn down. Zombies aren't attacking our families
• 1:42:18
  Speaker 1: on the way to school. Everything that's the basic quality
• 1:42:21
  Speaker 1: of life you're failing at. But what you're good at
• 1:42:24
  Speaker 1: is just yelling on social media. And that was back
• 1:42:26
  Speaker 1: to why I ran because I didn't want to be
• 1:42:27
  Speaker 1: one of these. Just they're just yappers.
• 1:42:30
  Speaker 2: It is. Yeah.
• 1:42:31
  Speaker 1: You don't do anything. Yeah.
• 1:42:33
  Speaker 2: Well, it's it's refreshing. It's refreshing seeing something– but I
• 1:42:37
  Speaker 2: think this is how it has to be done. I
• 1:42:38
  Speaker 2: think it has to be someone from the outside that–
• 1:42:42
  Speaker 2: all these people that have a career in politics, they
• 1:42:45
  Speaker 2: know what feathers they can't ruffle. They know that if
• 1:42:49
  Speaker 2: you want to make it, you have to be aligned
• 1:42:51
  Speaker 2: with whatever the party is doing. And if you go
• 1:42:54
  Speaker 2: against them, you get in trouble. And everyone knows this.
• 1:42:57
  Speaker 2: So they all just sort of stay the course and
• 1:42:59
  Speaker 2: hope that their time comes. Hope that they'll look the
• 1:43:02
  Speaker 2: right way and say the right things. And somehow or another,
• 1:43:06
  Speaker 2: it'll allow them to elevate their career and become a
• 1:43:10
  Speaker 2: mayor somewhere or become a governor somewhere.
• 1:43:12
  Speaker 1: Well, if you look, smart people come up to me
• 1:43:14
  Speaker 1: and they'll be like, you're doing what the founders of
• 1:43:16
  Speaker 1: America wanted. Real people, part of the communities getting into politics,
• 1:43:22
  Speaker 1: not this job where I'm going to do this for 30.
• 1:43:25
  Speaker 1: It was supposed to be. your neighbor, you're somebody who
• 1:43:29
  Speaker 1: understood what everyone was going through. Exactly. And, and, and
• 1:43:32
  Speaker 1: I feel that. And again, I'm going in there to
• 1:43:36
  Speaker 1: stop these people, not, not, I don't have a new
• 1:43:39
  Speaker 1: utopia of what LA should be. I want LA back.
• 1:43:42
  Speaker 1: I want the LA I grew up in. I want
• 1:43:44
  Speaker 1: my two sons to be able to, once we win
• 1:43:46
  Speaker 1: all our lawsuits against Gavin Newsom and his state park
• 1:43:49
  Speaker 1: to rebuild in the palisades and grow up in the
• 1:43:52
  Speaker 1: city of LA that I grew up in, that it was,
• 1:43:56
  Speaker 1: you could dream.
• 1:43:57
  Speaker 2: Have you thought about a timeline of how all these
• 1:44:00
  Speaker 2: ideas that you have, like how long it'll take to
• 1:44:02
  Speaker 2: actually implement them?
• 1:44:05
  Speaker 1: Once you start enforcing the law, things are going to
• 1:44:07
  Speaker 1: move quick. It's as simple as, okay, I'm mayor of LA.
• 1:44:12
  Speaker 1: I got my new deputy mayors. We have my new
• 1:44:15
  Speaker 1: police commissions. We're going around and we're just arresting people.
• 1:44:21
  Speaker 1: And the people that aren't getting arrested, we're getting to
• 1:44:23
  Speaker 1: mandatory medical treatment. And we're just going to start clearing
• 1:44:26
  Speaker 1: the streets, clearing the encampments. And then from that, it
• 1:44:29
  Speaker 1: just– everything is going to come to– first off, imagine
• 1:44:32
  Speaker 1: the communities, like how pumped people are going to be
• 1:44:36
  Speaker 1: in these neighborhoods when I come in and I'm like,
• 1:44:39
  Speaker 1: this is done.
• 1:44:40
  Speaker 2: What is this other person, this democratic socialist lady, what
• 1:44:44
  Speaker 2: is her solution to all these problems, crime, homelessness, all
• 1:44:48
  Speaker 2: these things? What is she saying? Is she admitting that
• 1:44:51
  Speaker 2: there are issues and does she have a solution that
• 1:44:54
  Speaker 2: she's– As.
• 1:44:57
  Speaker 1: She just posted it yesterday, I didn't read it. Somebody
• 1:44:59
  Speaker 1: just tagged it. It was so funny. One of the
• 1:45:01
  Speaker 1: quotes was, we're going to have a street medical team.
• 1:45:04
  Speaker 1: A street medical team. We already have that. It's called
• 1:45:07
  Speaker 1: the LAFD. And they're spending 80% of their calls responding
• 1:45:11
  Speaker 1: to these overdoses. And we're also paying for that.
• 1:45:14
  Speaker 2: No.
• 1:45:15
  Speaker 1: Because they're so deep in it, they can't say mandatory treatment.
• 1:45:19
  Speaker 1: Because these people have rights to die on the sidewalk.
• 1:45:22
  Speaker 1: They have rights to attack. So we need more housing.
• 1:45:25
  Speaker 1: This isn't, these beds aren't working. We need to get
• 1:45:28
  Speaker 1: more beds. So yes, she needs more affordable beds, more.
• 1:45:32
  Speaker 1: It's not working as she's running it.
• 1:45:35
  Speaker 2: As she's running it. Yeah. So she just wants to
• 1:45:37
  Speaker 2: keep business as usual, just with more funds.
• 1:45:39
  Speaker 1: No, she wasn't even running until three hours before the
• 1:45:42
  Speaker 1: last where you have to fill it out. But when
• 1:45:44
  Speaker 1: everyone saw I was going to win and be the mayor, they,
• 1:45:48
  Speaker 1: so the real conspiracy is, is my conspiracy. I don't
• 1:45:51
  Speaker 1: know if it's real. that Karen Bass and Nithya are
• 1:45:54
  Speaker 1: working together just to block me to make sure, because
• 1:45:58
  Speaker 1: it's a jungle runoff. So June 2nd, the top two
• 1:46:01
  Speaker 1: numbers go to November. I was 1 billion percent going
• 1:46:06
  Speaker 1: to November until one hour before she just pops up
• 1:46:09
  Speaker 1: after she already endorsed Mayor Bass. They were doing photo
• 1:46:13
  Speaker 1: ops together a week before. They're close. Mayor Bass endorsed
• 1:46:17
  Speaker 1: this Nithya lady. They're like a team. So two hours
• 1:46:20
  Speaker 1: before that last minute where you have to sign to
• 1:46:23
  Speaker 1: where they announce the final candidates. She's had a year
• 1:46:26
  Speaker 1: to run for mayor or plus you could have announced.
• 1:46:29
  Speaker 1: It's just to block me from going to November. But
• 1:46:31
  Speaker 1: what they don't understand is. People that will vote for
• 1:46:34
  Speaker 1: me would never vote for her or Karen Bass. They're
• 1:46:38
  Speaker 1: actually picking off their own stats. If anything, what they're
• 1:46:42
  Speaker 1: doing is making me the mayor on June 2nd, because
• 1:46:45
  Speaker 1: if you have 51 percent of the vote, I just
• 1:46:48
  Speaker 1: become the mayor on June 2nd. And I think they're
• 1:46:50
  Speaker 1: in for a big surprise. And they're underestimating how angry
• 1:46:54
  Speaker 1: everybody is in the city of L.A., And I think
• 1:46:56
  Speaker 1: I become mayor June 2nd and it won't even go
• 1:46:58
  Speaker 1: to November.
• 1:46:59
  Speaker 2: I think they really are underestimating how angry everybody is
• 1:47:02
  Speaker 2: because there's people that I talk to that used to
• 1:47:05
  Speaker 2: be just hardcore Democrats, hardcore leftist progressives that are really
• 1:47:10
  Speaker 2: saying like in hushed tones, we really need a Republican.
• 1:47:16
  Speaker 2: We really need like some no-nonsense Rudy Giuliani person. I
• 1:47:20
  Speaker 2: hate to say that. I hate to say it. But
• 1:47:22
  Speaker 2: that's what we need. We need someone who's going to
• 1:47:23
  Speaker 2: be really tough on crime and clean everything up and
• 1:47:26
  Speaker 2: stop all these people from having tents on the street.
• 1:47:28
  Speaker 2: There's so many people like that that are just quiet
• 1:47:31
  Speaker 2: about it. They don't want to talk about it openly
• 1:47:33
  Speaker 2: and publicly because they're afraid of being shamed.
• 1:47:36
  Speaker 1: I grew up in Palisades. I went to Crossroads High School.
• 1:47:39
  Speaker 1: I don't think I've ever met a Republican. I mean,
• 1:47:43
  Speaker 1: for real, like all the people I know, all my
• 1:47:46
  Speaker 1: family and friends, everybody I know is a Democrat. And
• 1:47:49
  Speaker 1: all the people that are supporting me, all the people
• 1:47:51
  Speaker 1: I talk to, they're Democrats. This is not the Democrat
• 1:47:54
  Speaker 1: party that's running L.A. The other day I posted the
• 1:47:58
  Speaker 1: like the The commandment list of, I think it was 1996,
• 1:48:02
  Speaker 1: Bill Clinton's Democratic Party. It looks like what I would
• 1:48:05
  Speaker 1: say right now.
• 1:48:07
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 1:48:07
  Speaker 1: That's the– no, this is socialism. This is communist. This
• 1:48:11
  Speaker 1: is cartel. This is mafia. This is not– Democrats love me.
• 1:48:16
  Speaker 1: They they want all the same things they want to
• 1:48:18
  Speaker 1: feel safe.
• 1:48:18
  Speaker 2: It's really amazing how they can hide it but just
• 1:48:21
  Speaker 2: pretend to be compassionate they can hide all this money
• 1:48:25
  Speaker 2: that they're just siphoning off because it really is just
• 1:48:28
  Speaker 2: organized crime.
• 1:48:29
  Speaker 1: Well they say to people there's nothing we can do
• 1:48:32
  Speaker 1: that's that's right people will be my comment section be
• 1:48:35
  Speaker 1: like there's nothing you can do it's like they are
• 1:48:37
  Speaker 1: so good at just keeping this, these people have rights.
• 1:48:42
  Speaker 1: First off, it is illegal. This is below people's mind.
• 1:48:46
  Speaker 1: It's illegal to live on the sidewalk. Right. That's a
• 1:48:50
  Speaker 1: Democrat law. All the laws I want to enforce are
• 1:48:53
  Speaker 1: Democrat laws. I am the Democrat law enforcer mayor. I
• 1:48:58
  Speaker 1: should be every day. I'm actually excited because I finally
• 1:49:03
  Speaker 1: feel like there's hope because when your house burns down,
• 1:49:07
  Speaker 1: And your mom's crying because her house burned down every
• 1:49:09
  Speaker 1: single day. Everyone you know's house burned down. You go
• 1:49:11
  Speaker 1: through a dark, just all my tax money. I should
• 1:49:15
  Speaker 1: be a millionaire, you know, because I got some big checks.
• 1:49:19
  Speaker 1: People always say, oh, he burned all of his money.
• 1:49:22
  Speaker 1: They don't understand living in L.A. in the entertainment business
• 1:49:25
  Speaker 1: with a manager, an agent, a business manager, your taxes
• 1:49:29
  Speaker 1: in L.A., your state taxes. It's very hard to keep
• 1:49:32
  Speaker 1: all that money. So they're like, oh, he burned it. No, I, regardless,
• 1:49:36
  Speaker 1: the amount of money I put in to the city
• 1:49:38
  Speaker 1: of LA and the state, my house should still be here.
• 1:49:41
  Speaker 1: So it's very sad moment. And then it, then you
• 1:49:44
  Speaker 1: start uncovering, oh no, this is almost strategic. This is this,
• 1:49:50
  Speaker 1: you know, a lot of people reached out after with
• 1:49:51
  Speaker 1: the line and they're like, oh, they line at you.
• 1:49:53
  Speaker 1: This is a land grab. And I was like, no, no.
• 1:49:55
  Speaker 1: And then you start going down. You're like, I'm not
• 1:49:57
  Speaker 1: even arguing with these people anymore because of how the
• 1:50:01
  Speaker 1: writing was so on the wall. It's so on the wall,
• 1:50:04
  Speaker 1: the entire insurance industry dropped everyone in the Palisades leading
• 1:50:07
  Speaker 1: up to the fire. It was that flagrant. There was
• 1:50:10
  Speaker 1: 70-year-old people, 70-year-old plus. I talked to 80-year-olds that got
• 1:50:15
  Speaker 1: dropped by their insurance January 1st, been paying 40-plus years,
• 1:50:19
  Speaker 1: didn't even get to re-up, lost everything, no insurance. If
• 1:50:23
  Speaker 1: all the insurance companies are dropping an area, it's very
• 1:50:27
  Speaker 1: clear that they know what's about to happen. So your
• 1:50:30
  Speaker 1: city leaders, your mayor, everybody, your state, they should be
• 1:50:35
  Speaker 1: getting ready or saying, oh, wow, everyone's dropping this. What
• 1:50:38
  Speaker 1: can we do? Oh, we need to clear the dead brush.
• 1:50:41
  Speaker 1: We need to make the water in the reservoirs there.
• 1:50:44
  Speaker 1: Just obvious things. So I don't even argue with the
• 1:50:46
  Speaker 1: land grab things because here's a crazy thing that I
• 1:50:49
  Speaker 1: never did the math for. This hurts. So- Your house
• 1:50:53
  Speaker 1: burns down. You lost everything. Now you got to buy
• 1:50:56
  Speaker 1: stuff over again. Now you're paying the city sales tax.
• 1:51:00
  Speaker 1: So the people would just let your house burn down.
• 1:51:02
  Speaker 1: Now you're giving them tax to rebuy underwear, rebuy shoes, rebuy.
• 1:51:07
  Speaker 1: So they're making money now off of your house burning down.
• 1:51:11
  Speaker 1: Not to mention, you got to start buying things too. Actually,
• 1:51:14
  Speaker 1: maybe if you're lucky, not only 14 people in 15
• 1:51:17
  Speaker 1: months have built a house.
• 1:51:19
  Speaker 2: It's only 14 people have built a new house?
• 1:51:21
  Speaker 1: Let's max out at 16 just to be like, oh, no,
• 1:51:23
  Speaker 1: it's 16.
• 1:51:24
  Speaker 2: To be charitable.
• 1:51:25
  Speaker 1: Misinformation.
• 1:51:27
  Speaker 2: Less than 20.
• 1:51:28
  Speaker 1: Yeah, less than 20.
• 1:51:29
  Speaker 2: Which is crazy. And how many houses burnt down? 7,000.
• 1:51:31
  Speaker 1: Wow. So now you got the sales tax.
• 1:51:36
  Speaker 2: God, that's so crazy. That's such a crazy number. 7,000
• 1:51:39
  Speaker 2: houses is so crazy.
• 1:51:41
  Speaker 1: What's even crazier is most of these houses burned down
• 1:51:44
  Speaker 1: on January 8th when now there's no wind and they
• 1:51:48
  Speaker 1: just didn't figure out. Let's drive water in from all. Again,
• 1:51:53
  Speaker 1: when you're on Lahaina, you're on an island. I'll start arguing. Oh,
• 1:51:56
  Speaker 1: it's hard to get resources. When everything's burning down on
• 1:51:59
  Speaker 1: January 7th and you already realize you effed up and
• 1:52:02
  Speaker 1: now you're hearing the fire department saying, all the fire
• 1:52:04
  Speaker 1: hydrants are empty. There's no water. It's red alert. Get
• 1:52:08
  Speaker 1: enough water tankers from the whole state. Every city drive
• 1:52:11
  Speaker 1: in water. I have videos from January 8th of moms
• 1:52:14
  Speaker 1: walking in front of my son's elementary school. It's totally there.
• 1:52:17
  Speaker 1: My son's preschool, 12 o'clock, totally there. By the afternoon,
• 1:52:21
  Speaker 1: all this is gone because there was no, they didn't
• 1:52:24
  Speaker 1: bring water in. So back to the land grab thing.
• 1:52:29
  Speaker 1: So for instance, all these properties that burned down, like
• 1:52:33
  Speaker 1: I said, it's years of passed down family property. So
• 1:52:37
  Speaker 1: when you pass that, you pay that old tax rate.
• 1:52:40
  Speaker 1: Now these 7,000 dirt lots in the next couple of
• 1:52:43
  Speaker 1: years are... guess what the new tax rate is? They're
• 1:52:46
  Speaker 1: going to have, when somebody buys that and they're now
• 1:52:47
  Speaker 1: paying 2027, 2028 Pacific Palisades tax rates, not 1970, you know,
• 1:52:54
  Speaker 1: your grandfather's tax rate. Cause you know, you've still lived
• 1:52:57
  Speaker 1: in the house. So there's like a hundred plus billion
• 1:53:01
  Speaker 1: they're going to make just in taxes. So the idea that, Oh,
• 1:53:05
  Speaker 1: why would they ever let that happen? You start thinking,
• 1:53:08
  Speaker 1: Oh man, Well, they don't care because not only do
• 1:53:11
  Speaker 1: they make a lot of money, they can rebuild it.
• 1:53:14
  Speaker 1: They can try to put affordable housing and do this,
• 1:53:18
  Speaker 1: these complex. It just gets fishy.
• 1:53:21
  Speaker 2: It does get weird. You don't want to accuse people
• 1:53:24
  Speaker 2: of land grabs, but at the very least, they're capitalizing
• 1:53:28
  Speaker 2: on a tragedy.
• 1:53:29
  Speaker 1: Well, you know the number one buyer right now of
• 1:53:31
  Speaker 1: Palisades dirt lots? China.
• 1:53:35
  Speaker 2: No way.
• 1:53:35
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 1:53:36
  Speaker 2: Really?
• 1:53:37
  Speaker 1: Yeah. Well, they do it through New Zealand. It's a
• 1:53:41
  Speaker 1: New Zealand business owned by the Chinese. It's all movie stuff.
• 1:53:47
  Speaker 1: I keep saying to.
• 1:53:48
  Speaker 2: People– Watch the movie Chinatown.
• 1:53:50
  Speaker 1: I watch it once a week just to like stay
• 1:53:52
  Speaker 1: locked in. But it's exciting because I feel this window
• 1:53:58
  Speaker 1: of change where– the stars are aligning where an outsider
• 1:54:03
  Speaker 1: comes in and just blows up their whole spot. Not
• 1:54:05
  Speaker 1: the way the deputy mayor calls in bomb threats, but energetically.
• 1:54:10
  Speaker 1: And so it gives me hope. And then again, if
• 1:54:13
  Speaker 1: it goes, if it's not God's plan, my wife is
• 1:54:16
  Speaker 1: very on the, you know, prayer warrior, Bible, Jesus. So,
• 1:54:20
  Speaker 1: you know, I check in with her and I go,
• 1:54:22
  Speaker 1: what's Jesus saying, honey? And, you know, I talk, but
• 1:54:26
  Speaker 1: I think she has a better path. And her thing is,
• 1:54:29
  Speaker 1: if it's God's will, It's going to go down. And
• 1:54:32
  Speaker 1: if not, then I'll probably end up with some of
• 1:54:35
  Speaker 1: my former Palestinians that moved to Bentonville, Arkansas. And it
• 1:54:39
  Speaker 1: is what it is.
• 1:54:40
  Speaker 2: Well, there could be no doubt that Los Angeles needs
• 1:54:43
  Speaker 2: a radical shift. They need a radical change. And it
• 1:54:47
  Speaker 2: sounds like that's exactly what you're proposing.
• 1:54:50
  Speaker 1: Big time. And it's exciting because most people are scared.
• 1:54:54
  Speaker 1: They have fear of this system. They have fear of
• 1:54:56
  Speaker 1: being attacked. I get why a normal person that just
• 1:55:01
  Speaker 1: has a good heart, that's smart, doesn't want to go
• 1:55:03
  Speaker 1: into politics. You have the LA Times writing hit pieces.
• 1:55:07
  Speaker 1: They got machines to keep the system. You got the
• 1:55:10
  Speaker 1: comment sections. You got people making videos and trying to
• 1:55:13
  Speaker 1: expose bots. You feel that, but– Thankfully, I have experience
• 1:55:18
  Speaker 1: from being hated in television for many years. You know,
• 1:55:23
  Speaker 1: now the flip is I have so much love energy.
• 1:55:26
  Speaker 1: I was able to maintain with negativity for so many
• 1:55:29
  Speaker 1: years and just stay in the game because it was
• 1:55:31
  Speaker 1: business as usual. And I knew they wanted a villain
• 1:55:34
  Speaker 1: on all these shows. I will, you know, shout out
• 1:55:36
  Speaker 1: David Foster to put me on this path. Many years ago,
• 1:55:40
  Speaker 1: he said, you got to be like Simon Cowell. And
• 1:55:42
  Speaker 1: I leaned into that and it worked for many years.
• 1:55:45
  Speaker 1: But the point is, Being hated for so many years,
• 1:55:48
  Speaker 1: now having so much love, obviously I'd much rather be loved.
• 1:55:53
  Speaker 1: Anybody that wants to be loved is a lot more fun.
• 1:55:56
  Speaker 2: For sure. For sure. Listen, man, I'm voting for you.
• 1:56:00
  Speaker 2: I can't vote for you, but I'm rooting for you.
• 1:56:02
  Speaker 2: I mean, if I lived in Los Angeles, no question
• 1:56:05
  Speaker 2: whatsoever I would vote for you.
• 1:56:06
  Speaker 1: You have time to get one of these affordable beds.
• 1:56:09
  Speaker 1: I could probably connect you with one of these beds.
• 1:56:13
  Speaker 1: I don't think that's legal.
• 1:56:14
  Speaker 2: I think I'm a Texas resident.
• 1:56:17
  Speaker 1: Okay.
• 1:56:17
  Speaker 2: Yeah. I'm a Texas resident. Take that back. I think
• 1:56:20
  Speaker 2: I can only vote.
• 1:56:21
  Speaker 1: Well, did you see what they're doing right now with
• 1:56:23
  Speaker 1: the cigarettes and the ballots in L.A.? Have you seen this?
• 1:56:25
  Speaker 2: What?
• 1:56:26
  Speaker 1: They caught all these people signing ballots, trading the zombies
• 1:56:30
  Speaker 1: for cigarettes.
• 1:56:30
  Speaker 2: Oh, I did see that. I did see that.
• 1:56:31
  Speaker 1: So I need the DOJ, if you're watching, the feds.
• 1:56:34
  Speaker 2: Investigate that.
• 1:56:34
  Speaker 1: No, we need come to L.A. for my election. We
• 1:56:37
  Speaker 1: need to make sure we get a real election. I
• 1:56:40
  Speaker 1: can't even believe we didn't do an hour on Jiu-Jitsu, though.
• 1:56:42
  Speaker 2: That really is gross, what they're doing with giving people
• 1:56:45
  Speaker 2: cigarettes to sign up for things.
• 1:56:47
  Speaker 1: Do you know how many people are like in the
• 1:56:48
  Speaker 1: jujitsu game? If you don't shout me out, like I
• 1:56:51
  Speaker 1: need to just like end with like a list of people. No, no,
• 1:56:54
  Speaker 1: I'm just kidding. But guys, we didn't talk jujitsu.
• 1:56:57
  Speaker 2: Well, I talk jujitsu so much.
• 1:56:59
  Speaker 1: I know, I know.
• 1:57:00
  Speaker 2: Here's another thing. Like flavored nicotine is illegal in Los Angeles.
• 1:57:05
  Speaker 2: Just think about how many people are camped out on
• 1:57:07
  Speaker 2: the streets, how many people are in tents, open fentanyl use.
• 1:57:11
  Speaker 2: You can't buy flavored zins.
• 1:57:14
  Speaker 1: Well, even the cleanest ones that like my health biohacker
• 1:57:17
  Speaker 1: friends allegedly may or may not access it.
• 1:57:20
  Speaker 2: You can't have those.
• 1:57:21
  Speaker 1: Like fitness people can't even.
• 1:57:23
  Speaker 2: Like athletic.
• 1:57:23
  Speaker 1: Peptides are technically, you know. Yeah.
• 1:57:26
  Speaker 2: Well, they're working on that nationwide and hopefully that'll get
• 1:57:30
  Speaker 2: passed soon. But there's so many regulations in California that
• 1:57:34
  Speaker 2: make fucking no sense. Like no sense, particularly in Los Angeles.
• 1:57:39
  Speaker 2: They make no sense. And it's just they just want
• 1:57:41
  Speaker 2: to keep you like a child. And they are the
• 1:57:44
  Speaker 2: people that are supposed to be the overseers of everybody.
• 1:57:47
  Speaker 2: And they're looking out for you. And it's gross. And
• 1:57:50
  Speaker 2: it's just business as usual. They want to keep moving
• 1:57:53
  Speaker 2: in a direction of more regulation, more rules, less rights,
• 1:57:57
  Speaker 2: more restrictions.
• 1:57:59
  Speaker 1: One last thing that's speaking is this is so crazy.
• 1:58:01
  Speaker 1: Do you know right now in L.A., if you're just
• 1:58:03
  Speaker 1: a mom and pop landlord, you know, not they always
• 1:58:06
  Speaker 1: like to say landlords are like Cruella de Vil level.
• 1:58:09
  Speaker 2: Like, you know, just.
• 1:58:11
  Speaker 1: Like a mom and pop, maybe you own one apartment
• 1:58:13
  Speaker 1: building with units. If you have like a drug addict,
• 1:58:16
  Speaker 1: crazy person living in there, most of them now also
• 1:58:20
  Speaker 1: with their section eight scammer and Range Rovers have two cars.
• 1:58:24
  Speaker 1: If you want to get them out, they can go
• 1:58:26
  Speaker 1: a whole year with not paying the these landlords, and
• 1:58:29
  Speaker 1: then they have to pay a hundred grand in legal
• 1:58:31
  Speaker 1: fees to try to get them out. So then they
• 1:58:33
  Speaker 1: settle with this criminal. That's just abusing this loophole in
• 1:58:37
  Speaker 1: this system. They'll give them 50, 40 K to just leave.
• 1:58:41
  Speaker 1: That person is not put on any list. And then
• 1:58:43
  Speaker 1: they go do it to another apartment building. So a
• 1:58:45
  Speaker 1: lot of these apartment buildings, they don't even want to
• 1:58:48
  Speaker 1: rent out to people because they can't afford to then
• 1:58:51
  Speaker 1: have one of these people. So again, with this housing
• 1:58:54
  Speaker 1: and then ready for this, the city council is, If
• 1:58:57
  Speaker 1: it was not $ 170 million, it's $ 200 million. Just gave
• 1:59:01
  Speaker 1: $ 170 million to the lawyers that sue the tenants for
• 1:59:04
  Speaker 1: these people. But there's no fun for the tenants to
• 1:59:07
  Speaker 1: then defend themselves.
• 1:59:09
  Speaker 2: Jesus Christ.
• 1:59:11
  Speaker 1: It's so crazy. So again, it's about these people coming
• 1:59:17
  Speaker 1: around me that are living this nightmare. I'm like, how
• 1:59:20
  Speaker 1: do I help you stop these things? And putting these
• 1:59:23
  Speaker 1: people that know the game. Because they're living it. Yeah.
• 1:59:27
  Speaker 1: And undo it. We've got to stop this.
• 1:59:29
  Speaker 2: Well, I'm glad we could help you get your message out.
• 1:59:33
  Speaker 2: And I really, really hope it helps. And I really,
• 1:59:35
  Speaker 2: really hope you win. It will be fun. It will
• 1:59:38
  Speaker 2: be fun to watch you shake it up. And, boy,
• 1:59:42
  Speaker 2: if you could really change Los Angeles and turn it around,
• 1:59:45
  Speaker 2: I mean, that would be absolutely fantastic. It would be
• 1:59:50
  Speaker 2: a great story. It would be really amazing. And it
• 1:59:52
  Speaker 2: would give hope to a lot of other cities that
• 1:59:54
  Speaker 2: are experiencing it. Similar situations where I think a lot
• 1:59:56
  Speaker 2: of other people would follow your path.
• 1:59:59
  Speaker 1: I'm doing it. All right. Just get me in the game. VoteForMayorPratt.com.
