• 0:11
  Speaker 2: Isn't it like more rational to think I'm gonna get

  Speaker 2: get the haunt of virus?
• 0:17
  Speaker 3: Yeah?
• 0:17
  Speaker 4: Pretty low unless you were on that ship.
• 0:20
  Speaker 5: Personally, I think a bigger deal is being made of
• 0:23
  Speaker 5: this than should be.
• 0:26
  Speaker 4: Sorry, that was a perfect t novel.
• 0:32
  Speaker 1: That's that's a plum and now handle on the news,

  Speaker 4: least best? Yeah? I'm sure will good morning? Good morning?
• 1:16
  Speaker 4: All right? There you are? And Amy, there.
• 1:19
  Speaker 3: You are, I'm here, I'm here.
• 1:21
  Speaker 4: Yeah, you are an here? I am oh yeah, you
• 1:25
  Speaker 4: sound excited. And Neil or Neil.
• 1:28
  Speaker 5: Okay, a couple of things I want to talk about.
• 1:31
  Speaker 5: First of all, the President is in China, and so
• 1:34
  Speaker 5: we'll talk a lot about what's going on with him
• 1:37
  Speaker 5: in China, probably over the next couple of days.
• 1:41
  Speaker 4: Yeah, and I think you're going to find that what
• 1:45
  Speaker 4: he wants and what he is going.
• 1:47
  Speaker 5: To get are two very different things. I've got a
• 1:51
  Speaker 5: bunch of things to say about that. Personally, I think
• 1:53
  Speaker 5: he is out of his league when it comes to
• 1:56
  Speaker 5: President She.
• 1:57
  Speaker 4: It's that simple.
• 1:58
  Speaker 5: The Chinese or much very much the long game. President
• 2:03
  Speaker 5: She is. He thinks things out very carefully. There is
• 2:09
  Speaker 5: nothing immediate about.
• 2:10
  Speaker 4: What he does. And our president is shoot from the hip.
• 2:13
  Speaker 5: Will change his mind from eight o'clock in the morning
• 2:16
  Speaker 5: till noon he goes another way, same day, will change everything.
• 2:20
  Speaker 4: And it's my opinion.
• 2:24
  Speaker 5: A lot of people defend him saying, oh, he keeps
• 2:26
  Speaker 5: people on the defensive.
• 2:29
  Speaker 4: I don't think she gives it, damn.
• 2:31
  Speaker 5: I think he just go plodding lye methodically to where
• 2:34
  Speaker 5: he wants to go. That's what I think is going
• 2:36
  Speaker 5: to happen. Okay, So with that being said, Oh, also, Amy,
• 2:40
  Speaker 5: this was for you the story about that guy who
• 2:44
  Speaker 5: jumped the fence and was on the tarmac of Denver
• 2:48
  Speaker 5: who got hit and.
• 2:52
  Speaker 4: They don't say that. They do not say he got
• 2:55
  Speaker 4: sucked in.
• 2:56
  Speaker 3: They just apparently it was pretty gruesome, though I understand.
• 2:59
  Speaker 5: No, no, there's no question that he disappeared instantly as
• 3:03
  Speaker 5: soon as the engine came in contact with him, and
• 3:07
  Speaker 5: it was and there was a photo of the engine.
• 3:11
  Speaker 4: It looked like a mess in there.
• 3:13
  Speaker 5: But they have not said that he did commits suicide,
• 3:16
  Speaker 5: which is obvious, but they don't say he was sucked
• 3:20
  Speaker 5: into the engine. I find that very fairly interesting.
• 3:24
  Speaker 4: Just run over. That's weird. Don't you think that they
• 3:28
  Speaker 4: keep on leaving that out.
• 3:29
  Speaker 3: That it's been sanitized?
• 3:31
  Speaker 4: Uh, yeah, there's apparently.
• 3:33
  Speaker 3: And I have not seen it because I choose not
• 3:35
  Speaker 3: to see this. But I've also heard that there is video,
• 3:40
  Speaker 3: you know, because sometimes.
• 3:41
  Speaker 4: There is, of course, there's all kinds of video.
• 3:43
  Speaker 3: Yeah, and it's from a passenger who was filming the
• 3:46
  Speaker 3: landing and look.
• 3:48
  Speaker 4: There he is.
• 3:48
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 3:49
  Speaker 4: Yeah, So a couple of things.
• 3:51
  Speaker 5: Obviously, the authorities are saying, do not jump the fence
• 3:55
  Speaker 5: at airports. And I wouldn't order Hamburger anytime soon on
• 4:00
  Speaker 5: frontier airlines.
• 4:02
  Speaker 4: Oh okay, are you guys ready to do it?
• 4:07
  Speaker 2: You think Trump is going to order airplanes along the
• 4:11
  Speaker 2: fences at the border.
• 4:12
  Speaker 4: Now, yeah, wouldn't that be something.
• 4:14
  Speaker 5: No, just vacuumlators, big ones, industrial wo Okay, let's do it, guys.
• 4:19
  Speaker 4: It's side for.
• 4:20
  Speaker 5: Handle on the News on this Wednesday morning, May thirteenth,
• 4:25
  Speaker 5: Handle on the News with Neil Amy and me lead story.
• 4:31
  Speaker 5: And not particularly good for Americans and the administration. That
• 4:37
  Speaker 5: inflation has well, it's hit us and we knew that
• 4:41
  Speaker 5: was going to first time in three years. Wages are
• 4:44
  Speaker 5: no longer outpacing inflation right now, the annualized rate is
• 4:49
  Speaker 5: three point eight percent per year. And a lot of
• 4:53
  Speaker 5: reasons for it, the strike, that war in Iran. You
• 4:57
  Speaker 5: also have just in general, the cost of housing. It's
• 5:02
  Speaker 5: just it's a mess, and it's going to get worse
• 5:04
  Speaker 5: by the way this the longer the war goes on,
• 5:07
  Speaker 5: or more importantly, the longer the blockades go on, the
• 5:12
  Speaker 5: straight up her Moves being closed down and as a
• 5:14
  Speaker 5: result of that, the ports in Iran being shut down
• 5:18
  Speaker 5: by the US military. But I think it doesn't bode
• 5:22
  Speaker 5: well for the Republicans. Although Republicans are doing great in
• 5:26
  Speaker 5: terms of redistricting stuff. Man, they're scoring big time. Is
• 5:30
  Speaker 5: that the administration came into power on the premise that
• 5:34
  Speaker 5: prices were going to be lowered, and it's going the
• 5:39
  Speaker 5: other way. And you're going to see the President staying
• 5:42
  Speaker 5: away from that. He's going to be pulling back, which
• 5:43
  Speaker 5: you just did. As a matter of fact. That's our
• 5:47
  Speaker 5: second story.
• 5:48
  Speaker 4: Amy.
• 5:50
  Speaker 3: The President's not thinking about the people. President Trump told
• 5:54
  Speaker 3: reporters he's not weighing the economic burden of the Iran
• 5:57
  Speaker 3: war on everyday American. He said, when I asked a
• 6:02
  Speaker 3: question about it, he said, the only thing that matters
• 6:03
  Speaker 3: when I'm talking about Iran is they can't have a
• 6:05
  Speaker 3: nuclear weapon. I don't think about americans financial situation. I
• 6:09
  Speaker 3: don't think about anybody. I think about one thing. We
• 6:12
  Speaker 3: cannot let around have a nuclear weapon.
• 6:14
  Speaker 4: That's all. Yeah.
• 6:16
  Speaker 5: Now he's going to be a hit big time for that.
• 6:20
  Speaker 5: I'm not going to nail him for that. He is
• 6:22
  Speaker 5: there to negotiate the issue of the war. That's what
• 6:27
  Speaker 5: he's there to do. He has said, the premise of this,
• 6:30
  Speaker 5: even though there's gonna be some trade talks in Taiwan
• 6:33
  Speaker 5: and asking China to put pressure on Iran because China
• 6:39
  Speaker 5: buys virtually all of Iranian oil in their allies, actually
• 6:45
  Speaker 5: but his position is all I'm caring about is a
• 6:49
  Speaker 5: nuclear program of Iran's, interestingly, not the opening of the strait,
• 6:55
  Speaker 5: not the issue of the manufacturer of owns ballistic missiles,
• 7:01
  Speaker 5: et cetera. It's all about now nuclear, the nuclear issue.
• 7:05
  Speaker 4: That's it.
• 7:06
  Speaker 5: And if I think and there's gonna be some compromise,
• 7:09
  Speaker 5: by the way, I guarantee you there will be some compromise, which,
• 7:12
  Speaker 5: of course the United States will take credit.
• 7:14
  Speaker 4: Trump will say it's.
• 7:15
  Speaker 5: A victory, as the Iranians will say it's a victory.
• 7:18
  Speaker 5: Both sides are going to come out of this as
• 7:21
  Speaker 5: winners winter winter chicken dinner. Both sides are going to
• 7:25
  Speaker 5: do just great.
• 7:26
  Speaker 3: Wouldn't that be a good thing, though both sides were winners.
• 7:30
  Speaker 5: Well, depends on how you define winners. For example, the
• 7:34
  Speaker 5: opening of the Straits of Hormuz, what Iran wants is
• 7:38
  Speaker 5: to control the straits and make it a toll booth
• 7:41
  Speaker 5: that every ship going through pays the toll to Iran,
• 7:45
  Speaker 5: and it goes from an international, free, international waterway to
• 7:48
  Speaker 5: all of a sudden you pay the money like the
• 7:49
  Speaker 5: Panama Canal.
• 7:50
  Speaker 3: That's not going to happen, though, Do you think it's
• 7:54
  Speaker 3: a worldwide thing.
• 7:55
  Speaker 5: Yeah, no, it is a worldwide thing. But who the
• 7:58
  Speaker 5: hell knows. I mean, at this point, it's all up
• 8:00
  Speaker 5: in the air. I know Panama charges, the Suez Canal charges.
• 8:05
  Speaker 3: But that's not an open waterway.
• 8:07
  Speaker 5: Suez Canal now it's closed, but it was an open waterway.
• 8:11
  Speaker 5: That's the Iranians are saying. This is not an open waterway.
• 8:15
  Speaker 5: We control it. This is only twenty four miles wide.
• 8:18
  Speaker 5: It's an open waterway because it has been considered an
• 8:21
  Speaker 5: open waterway.
• 8:23
  Speaker 2: Maybe Trump will negotiate if they call it the Trump
• 8:26
  Speaker 2: toll booth.
• 8:28
  Speaker 4: Yeah, allow it? Yeah? Why not? All right? Oh right.
• 8:31
  Speaker 2: FBI Director Cash Battel has denied, and keep in mind
• 8:35
  Speaker 2: this is under oath recent allegations of excessive drinking and
• 8:41
  Speaker 2: even more concerning, I suppose unexplained absences on the job,
• 8:46
  Speaker 2: and he dismisses them as baseless. This was during a
• 8:50
  Speaker 2: fiery congressional hearing, going back and forth. In his opening remarks,
• 8:55
  Speaker 2: Chris Van Holland, ranking member of the Senate Appropriations Committee, said,
• 9:00
  Speaker 2: what we are learning about what's happening at the FBI
• 9:04
  Speaker 2: is anything but normal. When your private actions make it
• 9:08
  Speaker 2: impossible for you to perform your public duties.
• 9:11
  Speaker 4: We have a big problem, yep. And he said, absolutely not.
• 9:16
  Speaker 4: It's a farce. It's not true. It's an utter lie.
• 9:20
  Speaker 5: One of the things that I've noticed about all these
• 9:22
  Speaker 5: hearings with Trump administration cabinet members and leadership, etc. Employees,
• 9:30
  Speaker 5: is how just antagonistic these hearings are. They used to
• 9:35
  Speaker 5: be yes, Senator, yes, congressperson or congressman.
• 9:40
  Speaker 4: And they were differential. People used to be deferential in
• 9:43
  Speaker 4: these hearings.
• 9:44
  Speaker 5: Now it's a fistfight that happens between the Republican This
• 9:50
  Speaker 5: was and Chris Vaughan Holand is a Democrat.
• 9:52
  Speaker 4: So we'll see when it comes out.
• 9:56
  Speaker 2: Part of the committee. I didn't see video. Did he
• 9:59
  Speaker 2: look shaken or no? You look pissed now shaking?
• 10:03
  Speaker 4: Now he was? No, he wasn't share now he did,
• 10:06
  Speaker 4: you know, take a or sterred? Oh? Got it? Oh?
• 10:09
  Speaker 4: Got it all right? Yeah, I missed it. I missed it?
• 10:12
  Speaker 4: Fair enough?
• 10:15
  Speaker 3: Who's leaking? The Justice Department issued subpoenis to the Wall
• 10:20
  Speaker 3: Street Journal looking for information related to its coverage of
• 10:26
  Speaker 3: the conflict in Iran. The paper reported in a story
• 10:31
  Speaker 3: that legal requests were dated March fourth, related to a
• 10:34
  Speaker 3: February twenty third article that was published before the war started,
• 10:38
  Speaker 3: describing internal Pentagon concern concerns about an extended military action
• 10:45
  Speaker 3: in Iran. The Acting Attorney General Todd Blanche said, prosecuting
• 10:49
  Speaker 3: leakers who share our nation's secrets with reporters, in turn
• 10:53
  Speaker 3: risking our national security in the lives of our soldiers
• 10:56
  Speaker 3: is a priority for this administration.
• 10:58
  Speaker 4: Hey, I don't know are people tired of this yet?
• 11:02
  Speaker 5: Where anybody who does says anything against the administration goes
• 11:07
  Speaker 5: as an immediate target of an investigation and arrest.
• 11:12
  Speaker 4: It's said being fired.
• 11:16
  Speaker 5: As I've said many times before, I don't blame the
• 11:18
  Speaker 5: president for this. He is who he is, and he
• 11:22
  Speaker 5: was legitimately elected. It's the Republicans in Congress who back
• 11:26
  Speaker 5: him up. And it doesn't matter what he says or does.
• 11:30
  Speaker 5: Doesn't matter. If he were to put in front of
• 11:34
  Speaker 5: the White House a forty foot statue of himself, which
• 11:38
  Speaker 5: by the way, there already is one going up, then
• 11:42
  Speaker 5: all the Republicans would vote, absolutely yes, they would. It's insanity.
• 11:48
  Speaker 5: I just I don't understand it. I really don't understand
• 11:51
  Speaker 5: how this is going. Okay, now let's talk about a
• 11:56
  Speaker 5: legitimate what I think is a legitimate arrest.
• 12:00
  Speaker 2: Nation Volcano was what this sting was dubbed. This took
• 12:04
  Speaker 2: place in Riverside County and their Child Exploitation Team targeting
• 12:09
  Speaker 2: individuals suspected of sharing illicit materials online, dealing with children.
• 12:15
  Speaker 2: This dealt with abuse, child porn, all these different things.
• 12:22
  Speaker 2: The thing is, it would be much easier if everyone
• 12:25
  Speaker 2: just looked like a monster. That was a monster. But
• 12:28
  Speaker 2: they found a child psychologist, a doctor during this massive
• 12:34
  Speaker 2: suite that were involved in this. Retired law enforcement employee,
• 12:39
  Speaker 2: two corporate vice presidents, a US Postal Service worker all
• 12:43
  Speaker 2: tied in with this. Five hundred suspects being identified, forty
• 12:48
  Speaker 2: two arrests. This deals with stings on the dark web
• 12:54
  Speaker 2: and a year long from March to March investigation.
• 13:00
  Speaker 4: I'm gonna give Lindsay a plug here.
• 13:02
  Speaker 5: She has a podcast called The Paying Game Podcast, and
• 13:06
  Speaker 5: two weeks ago she released an episode called Pimps and
• 13:09
  Speaker 5: Pastors about a pastor who became an FBI agent.
• 13:14
  Speaker 4: And it is and it's about this topic.
• 13:18
  Speaker 5: It's about people who are involved in these sex rings.
• 13:24
  Speaker 5: And it is so scary and so disturbing and so
• 13:27
  Speaker 5: depressing as to how.
• 13:30
  Speaker 2: Many he became an FBI agent right, her guest yes,
• 13:35
  Speaker 2: and ended up Yeah.
• 13:36
  Speaker 4: I yeah, it's.
• 13:39
  Speaker 5: It's worth listening too, because first of all, it's a
• 13:42
  Speaker 5: great episode, and second of all it is I just
• 13:46
  Speaker 5: was shaking my head yesterday, you know, I listened to it,
• 13:48
  Speaker 5: and you know, it not very much affects me, as
• 13:51
  Speaker 5: you probably know. I mean, you have to go to
• 13:53
  Speaker 5: a long, long way to affect me. But man, you know,
• 13:57
  Speaker 5: so if you want to take a listen to something
• 13:59
  Speaker 5: along the lines. Pimps and Pastors is the name of
• 14:04
  Speaker 5: the episode at the Pain Game podcast. Okay, legitimate plug
• 14:08
  Speaker 5: by the way, that was not gratuitous. No, no, now
• 14:13
  Speaker 5: let's do some gratuitous plugging.
• 14:15
  Speaker 4: Okay, no, let's move on.
• 14:19
  Speaker 3: This was no accident. Bill mentioned this a minute ago.
• 14:21
  Speaker 3: The guy who jumped a fence at an airport at
• 14:24
  Speaker 3: Denver International and crossed a runway in front of a
• 14:29
  Speaker 3: Frontier Airlines jet that was trying to take off died
• 14:33
  Speaker 3: by suicide, according to the medical examiner. Chief Medical examiner
• 14:37
  Speaker 3: doctor Sterling McLaren said a post mortem examination of the
• 14:41
  Speaker 3: forty one year old man revealed the manner of death
• 14:44
  Speaker 3: was suicide. The guy's injuries were caused by the plane's engine.
• 14:50
  Speaker 3: They didn't say it was sucked into it.
• 14:52
  Speaker 5: Post Well, it catches on fire, Smoke is in the cabin.
• 14:58
  Speaker 5: If he was just run over, he would have just
• 15:00
  Speaker 5: been run over.
• 15:02
  Speaker 3: What do you.
• 15:04
  Speaker 2: As a medical examiner, what are you examining after that
• 15:09
  Speaker 2: incident that tells you it was a suicide.
• 15:15
  Speaker 4: Well, I don't think. I don't think he left a
• 15:17
  Speaker 4: suicide note.
• 15:18
  Speaker 2: But he was just just saying, it's like what while
• 15:21
  Speaker 2: he hopped the fence. I mean, are you examining it's
• 15:24
  Speaker 2: not from the body that.
• 15:26
  Speaker 4: Tells you that.
• 15:27
  Speaker 5: No, No, the body is a body at that point. Yeah, well, no,
• 15:30
  Speaker 5: there's a body. It's just it's very hard to put
• 15:32
  Speaker 5: together again. Uh, it's Oh, how's that for a puzzle?
• 15:38
  Speaker 5: You know that you buy one of those puzzles trying
• 15:40
  Speaker 5: to put together someone. Oh okay, anyway, you're right. All
• 15:47
  Speaker 5: they can do is surmise that it was a suicide.
• 15:50
  Speaker 5: Jumping the fence, running out to the to the to
• 15:54
  Speaker 5: the tarmac on the runway in front of a jet. Okay,
• 15:58
  Speaker 5: And I think it was fake seeing the jet and
• 16:01
  Speaker 5: if I'm not mistaken, the airplane.
• 16:03
  Speaker 3: Well, it was weird watching the video because after he
• 16:05
  Speaker 3: scaled the fence. He was just sort of strolling. He
• 16:08
  Speaker 3: wasn't running, he was just walking toward the runway. Looked
• 16:14
  Speaker 3: very nonchalant at least leading up to it.
• 16:16
  Speaker 2: So reminds me of that fight in Indiana Jones, a
• 16:20
  Speaker 2: big bald guy gets taken out by the propellers.
• 16:23
  Speaker 3: Oh and raiders of the Larstark.
• 16:25
  Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, yeah, it was no, it was very good.
• 16:30
  Speaker 2: Oh, fingers crossed here. I love the Cinerama Dome. If
• 16:34
  Speaker 2: you've been in La for any amount of time, you
• 16:36
  Speaker 2: know this wonderful theater originally or last overseen by arc
• 16:42
  Speaker 2: Light and just fantastic. While the city had a hearing
• 16:46
  Speaker 2: this week and they were looking for to continue their
• 16:50
  Speaker 2: on site alcohol sales, you have to renew that license
• 16:54
  Speaker 2: and the like, and this gave the public a chance
• 16:57
  Speaker 2: to air their opinions about the possible reopening of the
• 17:00
  Speaker 2: Cinerama Dome and ArcLight Hollywood. There just Tuesday, and people
• 17:06
  Speaker 2: had like me and Amy, I'm sure have crossed our
• 17:10
  Speaker 2: fingers since twenty twenty in March. With the onset of
• 17:15
  Speaker 2: COVID nineteen, the pandemic shut it down in April of
• 17:18
  Speaker 2: twenty twenty one, and it's not been open since, but
• 17:23
  Speaker 2: it was the premiere theater.
• 17:25
  Speaker 5: Oh Magic placed a couple things about it. God, how
• 17:28
  Speaker 5: the West was one a really neat film opened up
• 17:32
  Speaker 5: and I saw it there as a kid, and I
• 17:35
  Speaker 5: still remember it. It's cinerama, which means it's basically one
• 17:38
  Speaker 5: hundred and eighty degrees the screen, but they used it
• 17:42
  Speaker 5: was three projectors that they used, and it was and
• 17:47
  Speaker 5: the film was seventy milimeters, twice as big as a
• 17:50
  Speaker 5: thirty five millimeter film, and you'd watch it, but you.
• 17:53
  Speaker 4: Could see the scene free everything.
• 17:56
  Speaker 5: Yeah, you could see it and the cinerama dome at least.
• 18:00
  Speaker 5: There was an event a few years ago that I
• 18:01
  Speaker 5: went to. They have the last seventy milimeters cinerama projection
• 18:07
  Speaker 5: system on Earth and it's still working where it was
• 18:12
  Speaker 5: a few years ago where I saw how the West
• 18:15
  Speaker 5: was won and it was a special event and the
• 18:18
  Speaker 5: projectionist who was involved with this and he was part
• 18:23
  Speaker 5: of refurbishing it, we all went up to the projection
• 18:27
  Speaker 5: booth and he explained how the projectors worked and it
• 18:30
  Speaker 5: was just one of the most magical events of certainly
• 18:35
  Speaker 5: cinematic events that I've ever been to.
• 18:37
  Speaker 4: So I hope they bring it I hope they bring
• 18:40
  Speaker 4: it back.
• 18:40
  Speaker 5: And then the old Cinerama that was the first wide
• 18:43
  Speaker 5: screen and Imax if you look at it, that was
• 18:45
  Speaker 5: basically yet of course they didn't have the technology they
• 18:48
  Speaker 5: do today. So it's fun to see the three basically
• 18:52
  Speaker 5: three screens that are put together and they have to Oh,
• 18:56
  Speaker 5: it's great.
• 18:57
  Speaker 4: I hope they do it and if you ever chance.
• 19:00
  Speaker 5: I don't know if they're ever going to show Cinerama
• 19:02
  Speaker 5: because the projectors are there.
• 19:04
  Speaker 4: They use other projectors to but that was neat. I
• 19:08
  Speaker 4: hope they go for it.
• 19:09
  Speaker 3: Truly, business isn't booming just yet. The promised economic boom
• 19:17
  Speaker 3: for the World Cup is not meeting expectations, at least
• 19:22
  Speaker 3: not for hotel owners. Room bookings have been lighter than
• 19:26
  Speaker 3: expected in most of the eleven cities that are hosting
• 19:29
  Speaker 3: World Cup events. A majority of hotel owners say bookings
• 19:33
  Speaker 3: are actually running behind typical season demand. In Los Angeles,
• 19:37
  Speaker 3: demand apparently is pretty flat so far compared to a
• 19:40
  Speaker 3: regular spring and summer, but they're not filled to the
• 19:43
  Speaker 3: rafters just yet. So does that mean nobody's coming.
• 19:47
  Speaker 5: No, no, it does, but it's way different than they anticipated.
• 19:53
  Speaker 5: And I'll do a story coming up at eight o'clock
• 19:55
  Speaker 5: on what the hotel owners are dealing with, the host cities.
• 19:59
  Speaker 4: Are dealing with, and the real winners here is FIFA.
• 20:03
  Speaker 4: That's it? Is it? FIFA?
• 20:06
  Speaker 3: FIFA?
• 20:07
  Speaker 4: FIFA phone phone smell.
• 20:12
  Speaker 2: The blood of an Englishman?
• 20:13
  Speaker 4: Yeah?
• 20:14
  Speaker 2: I think I have to look at this and go,
• 20:15
  Speaker 2: who do I want listening in on my calls? China
• 20:18
  Speaker 2: or Trump. Trump Mobile phones are being shipped this week,
• 20:23
  Speaker 2: the company exclusively confirmed to USA Today in an email.
• 20:27
  Speaker 2: A couple of days ago, Trump Organization launched Trump Mobile.
• 20:31
  Speaker 2: It's a new cellular service and smartphone company. They and
• 20:36
  Speaker 2: on June sixteenth. The company's first smartphone, the T one phone,
• 20:42
  Speaker 2: was originally supposed to be released back in August, but
• 20:47
  Speaker 2: it is gonna be yea delayed, I think until October.
• 20:52
  Speaker 4: Now what is the T one? What does the T
• 20:54
  Speaker 4: stand for? I think it's totally OK. Yeah.
• 21:01
  Speaker 5: Can you imagine any other president doing this stuff? No,
• 21:07
  Speaker 5: it's it's impossible for any other president ever to do
• 21:11
  Speaker 5: this stuff.
• 21:11
  Speaker 2: I mean, the last one is probably Lincoln with those cars.
• 21:16
  Speaker 4: No it's Lincoln.
• 21:17
  Speaker 5: No, No, if the last one was Lincoln when they
• 21:18
  Speaker 5: came out with a five dollar bill that he came
• 21:21
  Speaker 5: out with and originally yeah.
• 21:23
  Speaker 4: All over everything.
• 21:25
  Speaker 2: Yeah, it's yeah, got honest abes, yes.
• 21:29
  Speaker 3: Yeah, unintended consequences. A union funded attack ad against Spencer Pratt,
• 21:40
  Speaker 3: who's running for mayor of La may actually get him
• 21:43
  Speaker 3: into the top two. It's a thirty second spot listing
• 21:46
  Speaker 3: criticisms against Pratt, but seems kind of like a roster
• 21:50
  Speaker 3: of his selling points. He wants to add more police officers,
• 21:53
  Speaker 3: reign in the power of public employee unions, and spend
• 21:57
  Speaker 3: less money on new housing for the homeless. The La
• 22:01
  Speaker 3: County Federation of Labor, which is backing Bass, spent two
• 22:05
  Speaker 3: hundred twenty one thousand dollars in connection with the ad.
• 22:10
  Speaker 3: The Labor Federation denounced Pratt but didn't respond when asked
• 22:14
  Speaker 3: if the new ad was tried was aimed at boosting
• 22:17
  Speaker 3: his appeal to Republicans in the race. Okay, so maybe
• 22:22
  Speaker 3: there is a conspiracy.
• 22:24
  Speaker 5: I think again, I think it's a conspiracy from beginning
• 22:29
  Speaker 5: to end.
• 22:31
  Speaker 3: Have you seen any of Pratt's Oh my gosh, his
• 22:35
  Speaker 3: Internet ads?
• 22:36
  Speaker 2: No, Oh, I'm so happy that Pratt's in. When I
• 22:40
  Speaker 2: step in poop, I know it's not human things like that.
• 22:43
  Speaker 3: It's like they're really interesting.
• 22:48
  Speaker 5: Let me ask you, AI, if he fails and falls short,
• 22:53
  Speaker 5: is it a pratt fall?
• 22:55
  Speaker 3: Oh?
• 22:58
  Speaker 4: Thank you? All right?
• 23:00
  Speaker 2: Former private prison official to serve as acting ICE chief.
• 23:05
  Speaker 2: So what is David Venturella.
• 23:10
  Speaker 4: Entrea? Yeah, that sounds right Venterella. Yeah? Is he Italian
• 23:14
  Speaker 4: or Hispanic?
• 23:16
  Speaker 2: Is expected to be the next acting director of the
• 23:19
  Speaker 2: Immigration Customs Enforcement Agency. This comes from a Department of
• 23:24
  Speaker 2: Homeland Security spokesperson, and you know he's His law enforcement
• 23:32
  Speaker 2: background is basically private prison official.
• 23:35
  Speaker 4: No, he has the credentials.
• 23:37
  Speaker 5: But the part that a lot of people have trouble with,
• 23:40
  Speaker 5: as I do, is he worked for the government in
• 23:43
  Speaker 5: the world of prisons, then he goes and works for
• 23:45
  Speaker 5: the largest private prison company in the United States. Then
• 23:50
  Speaker 5: he comes back to ICE. It's the old revolving door argument.
• 23:55
  Speaker 2: He previously worked for ICE during the Obama and George W.
• 23:58
  Speaker 2: Bush administration.
• 24:02
  Speaker 3: Not all it's cracked up to be. Oh, the windshield
• 24:07
  Speaker 3: on a Southwest Airlines flight cracked, forcing the plane to
• 24:11
  Speaker 3: make an emergency landing in Oklahoma. The plane took off
• 24:14
  Speaker 3: from Albuquerque. It was headed to Baltimore, Washington. Uh. It
• 24:19
  Speaker 3: took off Monday afternoon. Someone said, hmm, there's a crack
• 24:23
  Speaker 3: in that windshield, so they diverted to Tulsa International Airport
• 24:27
  Speaker 3: and landed safely. The FAA says the windshield is comprised
• 24:32
  Speaker 3: of multiple layers of tempered glass.
• 24:34
  Speaker 5: Yeah, those are pretty strong windshields. I mean there are
• 24:38
  Speaker 5: several inches thick, so that's not a huge huge issue. Okay,
• 24:42
  Speaker 5: let's do one more and then we'll bail out of here.
• 24:44
  Speaker 4: Safe light, replace, safely repair. Yeah, that's what I was
• 24:48
  Speaker 4: thinking by that.
• 24:49
  Speaker 3: That was the one I was looking for. I was like,
• 24:51
  Speaker 3: what's that Winschilverlacey.
• 24:53
  Speaker 2: Had guys on the front while it's flying, go anywhere,
• 24:56
  Speaker 2: We'll come to you.
• 24:58
  Speaker 3: Uh.
• 24:58
  Speaker 4: Okay.
• 24:58
  Speaker 2: Russian cargo ship but likely carrying two nuclear reactors for submarines,
• 25:04
  Speaker 2: possibly destined for North Korea, suffered a series of explosions
• 25:08
  Speaker 2: and sank. They don't have any explanation for these circumstances.
• 25:14
  Speaker 2: About sixty miles off the coast of Spain. And that's
• 25:19
  Speaker 2: about what we know.
• 25:20
  Speaker 4: Yeah, it's I tell you what we know.
• 25:22
  Speaker 5: They're carrying a couple, even the captain said, a couple
• 25:25
  Speaker 5: of components for nuclear reactors, probably for submarines, and all
• 25:29
  Speaker 5: of a sudden, okay, it disappears and then another ship
• 25:33
  Speaker 5: shows up.
• 25:33
  Speaker 4: Oh okay, it disappears too, so go figure. All right,
• 25:38
  Speaker 4: It's like a movie, doesn't it. Yeah, it sure does.
• 25:42
  Speaker 4: All right, let's get out of here. We're done with
• 25:44
  Speaker 4: the first hour.
• 25:46
  Speaker 5: Coming up inflation, first time in three years, wages are
• 25:51
  Speaker 5: no longer outpacing inflation, and inflation is here, and it's
• 25:54
  Speaker 5: coming with a vengeance. And I'll share that with you
• 25:56
  Speaker 5: when we returned. This is KFI A M six point
