• 2:15
  Speaker 1: some parts of the President's executive order targeting mail in
• 2:19
  Speaker 1: voting can move ahead. Monday's order lifts the block from
• 2:23
  Speaker 1: a lower court provision, but the key part that gives
• 2:27
  Speaker 1: the Postal Service oversight of mail in voting remains on
• 2:31
  Speaker 1: hold while it plays out in the lower courts. We're
• 2:34
  Speaker 1: going to get more on the decision what it actually
• 2:36
  Speaker 1: means for mail in voting across the US with ABC's
• 2:39
  Speaker 1: Peter Harr lamboos. That's coming up in just a couple
• 2:41
  Speaker 1: of minutes. Hey, how about a nice steak dinner. Ah,
• 2:44
  Speaker 1: sounds good, right, but it's going to cost you a lot.
• 2:47
  Speaker 1: ABC's Jim Ryan's going to join us to tell us
• 2:49
  Speaker 1: the steps the president is taking to help bring beef
• 2:52

• 3:01
  Speaker 1: they can rebuild more than a year after they eat
• 3:04
  Speaker 1: and fire. Jason Nathanson talk to some of them, and
• 3:06
  Speaker 1: we'll tell us about their frustrations on holding utilities accountable
• 3:11
  Speaker 1: and getting the funding they need to rebuild their lives.
• 3:14
  Speaker 1: Let's get started with some of the stories coming out
• 3:16
  Speaker 1: of the KFI twenty four hour newsroom. The heat just
• 3:19
  Speaker 1: keeps sticking up.
• 3:20
  Speaker 4: We're expecting about two to five degrees of warming.
• 3:23
  Speaker 2: Meteor Algi Mike Wafford with the National Weather Service says
• 3:26
  Speaker 2: today southern California.
• 3:27
  Speaker 4: Is going from just a heat advisory to an extreme
• 3:30
  Speaker 4: heat warning.
• 3:31
  Speaker 2: Tempsas sighs one hundred degrees in downtown La.
• 3:33
  Speaker 4: We're expecting that to continue through at least Thursday.
• 3:37
  Speaker 2: Up to one ten in the valleys. Just hot everywhere
• 3:39
  Speaker 2: and not cooling down enough at night because of warm
• 3:41
  Speaker 2: ocean temps. By the weekend, though, the extreme heat should
• 3:44
  Speaker 2: be gone and it could be somewhat pleasant by next week.
• 3:47
  Speaker 2: Jason Nathanson can't fine news.
• 3:49
  Speaker 1: Somewhat pleasant. I like that some to look forward to.
• 3:52
  Speaker 1: And La City Council Committee will be voting today on
• 3:54
  Speaker 1: whether to withhold reconstruction permits for Lineage Logistics burned out
• 4:00
  Speaker 1: warehouse and boil heights. Pressures mounting on the company after
• 4:03
  Speaker 1: it missed key deadlines to remove the rotting food from
• 4:06
  Speaker 1: the warehouse. The Planning and Land Use Management Committee has
• 4:11
  Speaker 1: expected to vote on a motion to bar the company
• 4:13
  Speaker 1: from rebuilding its damaged property and to increase fines ranging
• 4:17
  Speaker 1: from twenty five thousand to a million dollars for notices
• 4:21
  Speaker 1: of violations or non compliance. Lineage said Friday it had
• 4:24
  Speaker 1: removed one hundred and four percent of the rotting food
• 4:27
  Speaker 1: waste from the air warehouse. A man who drove up
• 4:30
  Speaker 1: next to and murdered an LA County sheriff's deputy in
• 4:33
  Speaker 1: Palmdale has been found guilty of first degree murder.
• 4:36
  Speaker 2: It only took jurors about two hours to convict thirty
• 4:38
  Speaker 2: two year old Kevin Eduardo Cataneo Salazar of Palmdale. He
• 4:42
  Speaker 2: shot Deputy Ryan Klinkenbruomer, who was stopped at the red
• 4:44
  Speaker 2: light near the Palmdale Sheriff station on September sixteenth, twenty
• 4:47
  Speaker 2: twenty three. He was also found guilty of special circumstance
• 4:50

• 5:00
  Speaker 2: and Wednesday to determine if he was sane or insane,
• 5:02
  Speaker 2: if saying, he could get life in prison. If insane,
• 5:04
  Speaker 2: he'd go to a state hospital. Mark ronor KFI News
• 5:08
  Speaker 2: an LA.
• 5:09
  Speaker 1: City Council committee plans to consider a proposal to rename
• 5:12
  Speaker 1: Downtown's Pershing Square in honor of Biddy Mason.
• 5:16
  Speaker 5: She's a former slave who became a prominent LA landowner, entrepreneur,
• 5:22
  Speaker 5: and philanthropist. City Councilwoman Isabelle Herado, chair of the three
• 5:26
  Speaker 5: member Arts, Parks, Libraries, and Community Enrichment Committee has scheduled
• 5:30
  Speaker 5: to vote on the proposal today. If approved, it would
• 5:34
  Speaker 5: move to the full City Council for consideration. She was
• 5:37
  Speaker 5: born into slavery and forced to walk from Georgia to
• 5:39
  Speaker 5: California with her masters. She later successfully petitioned a court
• 5:43
  Speaker 5: in la for her freedom. Deborah Mark KFI News.
• 5:47
  Speaker 1: Well, what would General Pershing say about this renaming? Just
• 5:51
  Speaker 1: saying Pershing Square was named after General John J. Pershing,
• 5:56
  Speaker 1: who was a famous American military leader. Little bit of
• 6:00
  Speaker 1: trivia for you. Well, let's say good morning too, ABC's
• 6:03
  Speaker 1: Peter Harrlumbus. Peter. President Trump scores at least part of
• 6:08
  Speaker 1: a win with the Supreme Court over MAILI in voting
• 6:10
  Speaker 1: what happened yesterday?
• 6:12
  Speaker 2: That's right.
• 6:13
  Speaker 6: The Supreme Court in a six y three decisions siding
• 6:15
  Speaker 6: with the Trump administration about whether or not the Postal
• 6:18
  Speaker 6: Service can move forward with this controversial policy to have
• 6:21
  Speaker 6: the Postal Service get more involved than who does and
• 6:24
  Speaker 6: who doesn't receive absentee ballots. The Court itself did not
• 6:28
  Speaker 6: weigh in on the legality of all this and the
• 6:30
  Speaker 6: constitutionality of this issue. Instead, the ruling was more procedural
• 6:34
  Speaker 6: this issue about whether this was too soon for a
• 6:38
  Speaker 6: lawsuit to proceed because the actual proposed changes have not
• 6:41
  Speaker 6: been implemented. The Justice is ultimately concluding that because the
• 6:45
  Speaker 6: executive order asked nothing of the States, and because the
• 6:48
  Speaker 6: policies themselves have not yet been implemented by the Postal Service,
• 6:52
  Speaker 6: the lawsuit was just premature and basically kept the door
• 6:54
  Speaker 6: open for this legal challenge to return. It seems as
• 6:57
  Speaker 6: though the Postal Service now is in this process of
• 7:00
  Speaker 6: implementing some of these policies, basically suggesting that this lawsuit
• 7:03
  Speaker 6: is going to make this issue excuse me, it is
• 7:05
  Speaker 6: going to make its way back up to the Supreme
• 7:08
  Speaker 6: Court in the coming weeks and months. Really the big
• 7:10
  Speaker 6: question though, becomes whether or not they can hear the
• 7:12
  Speaker 6: issue in time for the midterms, or if this gets
• 7:15
  Speaker 6: implemented and it's just too soon for the courts to
• 7:18
  Speaker 6: step in.
• 7:19
  Speaker 1: Okay, so effectively, so crazy that you just telling me
• 7:25
  Speaker 1: all this, It's like, well, why not make a ruling
• 7:28
  Speaker 1: on it? If policies are starting to be implemented where
• 7:31
  Speaker 1: they're saying it sounds like it might have been prematured.
• 7:33
  Speaker 1: So do they refile the suit? Or is it the
• 7:36
  Speaker 1: same thing and they just revisit the same one.
• 7:40
  Speaker 6: It's probably going to be the same lawsuit that is revived.
• 7:43
  Speaker 6: And to your point about how remarkable it is, two
• 7:47
  Speaker 6: things stand out. One, it's not like the justices have
• 7:50
  Speaker 6: this in a rushed manner. They literally have been sitting
• 7:52
  Speaker 6: on this case for about a month without acting. And
• 7:55
  Speaker 6: two to this question about timing about when this loss
• 8:00
  Speaker 6: might get revived, we actually saw it just a few
• 8:02
  Speaker 6: days ago before the Supreme Court ruled on anything, the
• 8:05
  Speaker 6: Postal Service finalized these proposed changes, basically beginning the process
• 8:10
  Speaker 6: of implementing them. So the Supreme Court, over the course
• 8:13
  Speaker 6: of a month waiting issue a decision, basically had the
• 8:17
  Speaker 6: Postal Service in the meantime implement this rule, but they
• 8:20
  Speaker 6: didn't actually weigh in on whether or not the rule
• 8:22
  Speaker 6: was lawful or constitutional because they just thought it was
• 8:25
  Speaker 6: too early.
• 8:26
  Speaker 1: Okay, And then there was another part of mail in
• 8:28
  Speaker 1: voting that they didn't allow to move forward.
• 8:34
  Speaker 6: Yeah, the ruling itself kind of says nothing about this
• 8:39
  Speaker 6: policy of the Postal Service being an arbiter at the
• 8:42
  Speaker 6: end of the day of who gets ballots. It really
• 8:44
  Speaker 6: keeps the door open for the Department of Homeland Security
• 8:47
  Speaker 6: to create these lists of approved voters, and doesn't stay
• 8:51
  Speaker 6: much about the postal service itself, basically beginning the process
• 8:55
  Speaker 6: of using state by state lists to determine who receives ballots, which,
• 9:00
  Speaker 6: if anything, inserts a bit more confusion in all of
• 9:02
  Speaker 6: this in terms of what part of Trump's executive order
• 9:05
  Speaker 6: have been implemented, which parts have not been implemented, which
• 9:08
  Speaker 6: are the subject of this legal challenge. This seems to
• 9:11
  Speaker 6: be part of the concern articulated by the court's liberals
• 9:14
  Speaker 6: where they basically said that this ruling is going to
• 9:16
  Speaker 6: insert pre election chaos into the system, that it doesn't
• 9:20
  Speaker 6: disservice to election officials, to voters who could be receiving
• 9:24
  Speaker 6: absente ballots. Assumed as next week September fourth, we know
• 9:28
  Speaker 6: North Carolina begins sending out absentee ballots overseas to folks
• 9:31
  Speaker 6: living overseas or to military members. What happens if this
• 9:35
  Speaker 6: change happens after those ballots go out. What do you
• 9:38
  Speaker 6: do if you already voted, and you already sent back
• 9:41
  Speaker 6: your ballots and now you're being told, actually, your ballot
• 9:44
  Speaker 6: needs a new barcode is required by this federal regulation
• 9:48
  Speaker 6: really a lot of unanswered questions that the Trump administration
• 9:50
  Speaker 6: has not answered, but the Supreme Court has not answered either.
• 9:54
  Speaker 1: Well, and does this only affect absentee ballots because you know,
• 9:58
  Speaker 1: California is all male ballot.
• 10:02
  Speaker 6: It really impacts any kind of ballot. I've been using
• 10:06
  Speaker 6: the word absenceee ballots because it more just as a term.
• 10:10
  Speaker 6: This really refers to any kind of ballot that is
• 10:12
  Speaker 6: going through the mail. What's unique about this executive order.
• 10:16
  Speaker 6: What's unique about what the Trump administration is doing here
• 10:19
  Speaker 6: is involving the Postal Service in a way that historically
• 10:22
  Speaker 6: they've not I mean historically the Postal Service, of course
• 10:25
  Speaker 6: has received and sent mail in ballots, but they have
• 10:28
  Speaker 6: not been the ones deciding who gets those ballots. And
• 10:31
  Speaker 6: basically this regulation would effectively have the Postal Service referencing
• 10:36
  Speaker 6: these two different lists, a federal lists and a state
• 10:39
  Speaker 6: list to confirm if you can or cannot receive a
• 10:42
  Speaker 6: ballot in the mail. It also imposes some new regulations
• 10:45
  Speaker 6: about barcodes. So it's an unprecedented degree of involvement on
• 10:50
  Speaker 6: behalf of the Postal Service and something that the Constitution
• 10:53
  Speaker 6: is actually pretty clear on that at the end of
• 10:55
  Speaker 6: the day. It is the states and local governments that
• 10:58
  Speaker 6: administer elections, not the federal government. In some ways, this
• 11:01
  Speaker 6: should be a cut and dry case for the Supreme Court,
• 11:04
  Speaker 6: considering how clear that is in the Constitution. But they're
• 11:08
  Speaker 6: delaying this and opening the door potentially for a lot
• 11:11
  Speaker 6: of confusion, especially if you're a person who's planning on
• 11:14
  Speaker 6: mailand voting for these upcoming midterms.
• 11:16
  Speaker 1: All right, ABC's Peter harr Lomos, we'll talk to you again.
• 11:19
  Speaker 1: I'm sure when it comes up again before the Supreme Court,
• 11:23
  Speaker 1: because it sounds like it's going to again. Thanks so much,
• 11:26
  Speaker 1: have a great day. Let's get back to some of
• 11:28
  Speaker 1: the stories coming out of the KFI twenty four hour newsroom.
• 11:31
  Speaker 1: Canada said to announce retaliatory tariffs against the US following
• 11:35
  Speaker 1: the collapse of trade talks between the two countries. Canadian
• 11:38

• 11:42
  Speaker 1: Canada and walked away from trade negotiations late on Friday.
• 11:46
  Speaker 1: He said yesterday Canada could not accept what the US
• 11:49
  Speaker 1: had offered and could not give what was asked.
• 11:51
  Speaker 2: We have all we need right here, the workers, the engineers,
• 11:57

• 12:40
  Speaker 1: sanctions against Iran. He also warned yesterday that every country
• 12:43
  Speaker 1: that does business with the Islamic Republic should sever those
• 12:46
  Speaker 1: financial ties.
• 12:48
  Speaker 6: Let there be no ambiguity as to the position of
• 12:50
  Speaker 6: the United States.
• 12:52
  Speaker 2: An economic engagement of any kind with his murderous regime
• 12:57
  Speaker 2: will expose those responsible to the full res each of
• 13:00
  Speaker 2: American power.
• 13:02
  Speaker 1: The sanctions aim to further crush Iran's economy. President Trump
• 13:06
  Speaker 1: pledged last week to unleash an economic d day against Tehran.
• 13:11
  Speaker 1: Three states are holding primary elections today, including South Carolina.
• 13:14
  Speaker 1: That's where President Trump backed Republican Senator Darlene Graham is

  Speaker 1: Let's say good morning now to ABC's Jim Ryan. So, Jim,
• 16:01
  Speaker 1: I love a good steak, but it's getting so darn expensive.
• 16:05
  Speaker 7: Yeah, on average about six eighty nine per pound, and
• 16:08
  Speaker 7: that's for ground beef.
• 16:09
  Speaker 1: Yes, that's not a good steak.
• 16:11
  Speaker 7: No eleven or twelve bucks. You're gonna pay a per
• 16:13
  Speaker 7: pound for that nice steak, maybe more where you are
• 16:16
  Speaker 7: in fact. So, yeah, people are upset about it, but
• 16:19
  Speaker 7: their demand has not gone down. You still have a
• 16:21
  Speaker 7: lot of people buying beef that the supply is down,
• 16:25
  Speaker 7: the demand is there. The result rising.
• 16:28
  Speaker 1: Prices yeah, So what are we doing to bring those

  Speaker 1: prices down?

• 16:40
  Speaker 7: into the country and sold with lower tariffs at a discount,
• 16:43
  Speaker 7: about a quarter discount, twenty five percent. So that's six
• 16:46
  Speaker 7: eighty nine pound ground beef would cost theoretically five dollars
• 16:50
  Speaker 7: and sixteen of cents per pound. Where would the beef
• 16:52
  Speaker 7: come from, don't know. The President hasn't said. When will
• 16:55
  Speaker 7: this all start, don't know. He hasn't said, but it's
• 16:57
  Speaker 7: supposed to be a ninety day pure of this cut
• 17:02
  Speaker 7: raid to beef that would be coming into the country.
• 17:04
  Speaker 1: I thought it was coming in from Mexico because they
• 17:05
  Speaker 1: were going to lift the ban on Mexican beef. Different deal,
• 17:09
  Speaker 1: completely different deal.
• 17:10
  Speaker 2: Okay, So the lifting.
• 17:12
  Speaker 7: Of that, the bringing the metric that's different. That would
• 17:15
  Speaker 7: be an executive order. The President has not yet signed
• 17:17
  Speaker 7: it yet. But the other one, the neural screw worm
• 17:21
  Speaker 7: prohibition on the importation of Mexican beef, has been lifted
• 17:24
  Speaker 7: now ended yesterday, And those cases, all but one case
• 17:29
  Speaker 7: has been here in Texas. All forty six were either
• 17:33
  Speaker 7: in Texas, there was one in New Mexico.
• 17:35
  Speaker 2: That's it.
• 17:36
  Speaker 7: So yesterday the ban on the importation ended and the
• 17:40
  Speaker 7: first seven hundred and sixteen head of cattle came into
• 17:43
  Speaker 7: the United States. Not in Texas, not in New Mexico,
• 17:46
  Speaker 7: but considerably closer to you than to me. Douglas, Arizona
• 17:51
  Speaker 7: is where the first seven hundred and sixteen head came
• 17:53
  Speaker 7: through the gates end into the country. Deep inspections happening
• 17:56
  Speaker 7: on the Mexican side. The cattle are then washed as
• 17:59
  Speaker 7: they come through, washed in a pesticide bath. Then they're
• 18:02
  Speaker 7: reinspected on this side of the border, including with dogs
• 18:05
  Speaker 7: that have been trained to sniff out the kind of
• 18:08
  Speaker 7: infection that this parasite, the New World screw worm leaf.
• 18:12
  Speaker 7: So yeah, that process has begun. As seven hundred and
• 18:16
  Speaker 7: sixteen head yesterday, maybe another seven hundred today. The goal
• 18:19
  Speaker 7: is to eventually boost it up to about fifteen hundred.
• 18:22
  Speaker 1: Okay, get more beef well, because we know that just
• 18:26
  Speaker 1: over the last few years, one of the reasons that
• 18:28
  Speaker 1: the prices have gone up is because the supply is down.
• 18:32
  Speaker 1: There's not as many cows.
• 18:34
  Speaker 7: Exactly right, I mean, the US cattle herd is the
• 18:38
  Speaker 7: smallest it's been since I think the nineteen forties. So yeah,
• 18:42
  Speaker 7: that's shrinking the supply, rising demand, and the result course
• 18:47
  Speaker 7: ground beef that's six's eighty nine a pounds.
• 18:49
  Speaker 1: Okay, So then my question is are the cattlemen making
• 18:53
  Speaker 1: more money because there's less and they're raising the prices
• 18:55
  Speaker 1: or are they making less ultimately because there's less they
• 18:59
  Speaker 1: don't have the supply that they need.
• 19:02
  Speaker 7: Right, they're still making money, they are, and they're not
• 19:05
  Speaker 7: very happy that the president was planning on bringing three
• 19:07
  Speaker 7: hundred thousand metric tons of imported beef into the country
• 19:10
  Speaker 7: over the next ninety days there and they don't like
• 19:12
  Speaker 7: that at all, and they're being quite vocal about that.
• 19:15
  Speaker 7: So the president finds himself kind of stuck here October November, what,
• 19:20
  Speaker 7: four months before the election October, Yeah, four months trying
• 19:24
  Speaker 7: to please the cattleman who supported him in the last
• 19:26
  Speaker 7: election and consumers whould like to see beef prices come down.
• 19:30
  Speaker 7: So yeah, we'll see what happens with this. But now
• 19:33
  Speaker 7: there's no guarantee that either of these things, either the
• 19:36
  Speaker 7: lifting of the ban on the importation from Mexico or
• 19:39
  Speaker 7: this new you know, imported cut rate beef that's going
• 19:45
  Speaker 7: to drive down prices, and no guarantee that it's going
• 19:47
  Speaker 7: to happen, probably wouldn't happen anytime soon.
• 19:49
  Speaker 4: Amy.
• 19:50
  Speaker 1: Okay, Well, if some of that no tariff beef comes,
• 19:54
  Speaker 1: I hope it's coming from Argentina, I do like a
• 19:56
  Speaker 1: good Argentinian state. Yes, all right, yes, thanks Jim Ryan,

• 20:22
  Speaker 8: to the studios. Critics say AB twenty three to nineteen
• 20:25
  Speaker 8: would give one hundred million dollars a year in tax
• 20:27
  Speaker 8: credits to subsidize jobs and projects that are already here.
• 20:31
  Speaker 8: Those in favor say the tax credit would bring back

• 27:42
  Speaker 2: Thank goodness, because I don't know how I survive without
• 27:45
  Speaker 2: some beef. But more steps amy being done to boost

  Speaker 2: America's supply. Agriculture Secretary Brooke Brooke Rollins says over the
• 27:51

  Speaker 2: trade that had been largely stopped for the past to

  Speaker 2: A second port in New Mexico will reopen in a month,

  Speaker 2: followed by a third in the same state thirty days

  Speaker 2: after that. Consumer beef prices, as we know AMY soaring

  Speaker 2: due to a decline in American cattle herds.
• 28:15
  Speaker 1: Okay, Apple is introducing something even better.
• 28:21
  Speaker 2: Sources tell Bloomberg. There for the first time in almost
• 28:23
  Speaker 2: two years, Apple is going to be introducing a new
• 28:25
  Speaker 2: version of its Mac Mini desktop computer in the coming days,
• 28:29
  Speaker 2: as there's been a surgeon demand for the product it's

  Speaker 1: even look like? It's a little tiny computer.

  Speaker 2: of its backers are seeking to raise as much as
• 29:12
  Speaker 2: three billion dollars in a USIPO or as initial public offering,
• 29:16
  Speaker 2: could take place as soon as September and valued at
• 29:19
  Speaker 2: more than sixteen billion dollars, or a set back in
• 29:23
  Speaker 2: May that it filed confidentially for an IPO. So do
• 29:25
  Speaker 2: you have one?
• 29:26
  Speaker 1: I do not, because they make me feel guilty.
• 29:30
  Speaker 2: That's why I don't have one either.
• 29:31
  Speaker 6: Yep.
• 29:31
  Speaker 2: The resultso not be good?
• 29:33
  Speaker 1: Yeah, okay, a good thing. Good to know that some
• 29:36
  Speaker 1: things aren't going high tech. Lego is sticking to its
• 29:40
  Speaker 1: plans and staying away from artificial intelligence.
• 29:43
  Speaker 2: That's right. They're betting on human creativity and not AI
• 29:46
  Speaker 2: to keep its record runner revenue and market share going.
• 29:49
  Speaker 2: The Danish toymaker's CEO says the company is still embracing
• 29:53
  Speaker 2: AI in other parts of the business, especially administrative and
• 29:56
  Speaker 2: standardized tasks. The company's approach, though, is working. Lego just
• 30:00
  Speaker 2: reported records sales and profits for the first half of
• 30:02
  Speaker 2: the year, with total revenue surging twenty one percent to
• 30:06
  Speaker 2: more than triple that of rivals Hasbroro and Mattel. So
• 30:10
  Speaker 2: who needs AI? Right, Lego showing us you don't.
• 30:12
  Speaker 1: Yeah, they may be onto something because I know a
• 30:14
  Speaker 1: lot of adults who really like Legos. Seriously, it's not
• 30:19
  Speaker 1: just for any and it's younger adults. But a lot
• 30:22
  Speaker 1: of them loved. Maybe it's the tactile thing because we
• 30:24
  Speaker 1: don't have anything to play with anymore.
• 30:26
  Speaker 2: You know what it is. It's because they made the
• 30:28
  Speaker 2: deals with all the movie companies and now you can
• 30:30
  Speaker 2: build you know, these sets of your favorite you know,
• 30:33
  Speaker 2: Harry Potter this and Star Wars that, and I think
• 30:36
  Speaker 2: that's been the biggest thing for them.
• 30:37
  Speaker 1: Yeah, there's a new X Files one out too.
• 30:40
  Speaker 2: Oh amazing. I love that show.
• 30:42

  Speaker 1: If the Office of health Care Affordability adopts the penalties.
• 31:20
  Speaker 1: It could lead to hundreds of millions of dollars in

• 31:38
  Speaker 1: Researchers at Virginia Commonwealth Universities say they've repurposed and existing
• 31:44
  Speaker 1: FDA approved metabolic drug to start the tumors or actually
• 31:50
  Speaker 1: to starve the tumors of a vital matt ugh, I'm
• 31:55
  Speaker 1: just going to start this whole one over. They've repurposed
• 31:59
  Speaker 1: and exist visiting FDA approved metabolic drug to starve the
• 32:04
  Speaker 1: tumors of a vital fat molecule. Without it, the cancer
• 32:08
  Speaker 1: cells just break down. Scientists say, the tumor is killed
• 32:12
  Speaker 1: from the inside. The hope is that human clinical trials
• 32:16
  Speaker 1: will be fast tracked since the drug is already FDA approved.
• 32:20
  Speaker 1: It's pretty amazing. We're just minutes away from Handle. On

  Speaker 1: the news this morning, the USS Abraham Lincoln is motoring
• 32:28
  Speaker 1: back towards its home port. Bill's going to give you
• 32:31
  Speaker 1: the latest on that Alta Dina fire survivors are in
• 32:34
  Speaker 1: Sacramento fighting to get compensation so they can rebuild, more
• 32:38
  Speaker 1: than a year after they eaten fire. Jason Nathanson talked
• 32:42
  Speaker 1: to some of them. They're frustrated with Governor Newsom and
• 32:45
  Speaker 1: a plan to hold utility companies accountable when they cause
• 32:49
  Speaker 1: these massive wildfires.
• 32:50
  Speaker 13: California is now the most dangerous place on earth for
• 32:53
  Speaker 13: utility caused wildfires.
• 32:55
  Speaker 2: Joy Chen survived last year's Eating Fire and Alta Dina,
• 32:58
  Speaker 2: and now she's in a battle with governors.
• 33:00
  Speaker 13: He's trying to secretly bail out these three private.
• 33:06
  Speaker 2: Companies Pgene, so called, Edison, and Sembra.
• 33:08
  Speaker 13: Even though they're the ones who keep on causing fires.
• 33:12
  Speaker 13: And we're saying very simply, they just like we teach
• 33:16
  Speaker 13: our kids, these companies need to fix what they broke.
• 33:19
  Speaker 2: Your concern as a proposal by Newsom that could come
• 33:21
  Speaker 2: this week that would replenish a twenty two billion dollar
• 33:23
  Speaker 2: fund created after the Campfire in twenty eighteen, the deadliest
• 33:26
  Speaker 2: and most destructive fire in state history, which led to
• 33:29
  Speaker 2: the bankruptcy PGNE. The fund and a second version was
• 33:32
  Speaker 2: meant to get money into the hands of victims quickly
• 33:34
  Speaker 2: so they wouldn't have to wait while utility companies went
• 33:37
  Speaker 2: through the bankruptcy process. It's likely with the eating fire.
• 33:41
  Speaker 2: This is Newsom at a news conference last week that fun.
• 33:43
  Speaker 13: We'll be exhausted and so we don't have.
• 33:45
  Speaker 15: Time to wait.
• 33:46
  Speaker 2: But Keren says these funds have actually been bailouts for
• 33:48
  Speaker 2: the utility companies, a wait for them to avoid paying
• 33:51
  Speaker 2: survivors and taking responsibility for the destruction they created. And
• 33:54
  Speaker 2: the proposal being considered now this is.
• 33:56
  Speaker 13: The third multi billion dollar lity bailout in eight years.
• 34:01
  Speaker 2: At least that's what she thinks it is. No one
• 34:04
  Speaker 2: has seen the actual language that lawmakers could be voting
• 34:07
  Speaker 2: on this week.
• 34:07
  Speaker 1: I have not seen the text of it.
• 34:09
  Speaker 16: Thus far, we're still waiting for a bill to go
• 34:12
  Speaker 16: into print.
• 34:13
  Speaker 2: State Senator Sasha Rene Perez represents Altadena. She says she's
• 34:16
  Speaker 2: frustrated that they could get a complicated, several hundred page
• 34:19
  Speaker 2: bill this week and have to vote on it within
• 34:21
  Speaker 2: seventy two hours.
• 34:22
  Speaker 16: It completely just flies in the face of the democratic process.
• 34:27
  Speaker 16: For me, what's most important is making sure that fire
• 34:30
  Speaker 16: survivors are able to offer their feedback on this legislation,
• 34:33
  Speaker 16: and so this short timeline it makes me very uncomfortable,
• 34:37
  Speaker 16: and I've expressed my frustrations repeatedly to leadership about the process.
• 34:41
  Speaker 15: That this has gone through.
• 34:43
  Speaker 2: Joey Chen says the last minute rush is intentional, a
• 34:45
  Speaker 2: process known as gut and amend, and Newsome did it
• 34:48
  Speaker 2: last year.
• 34:49
  Speaker 13: Two days before the end of the legislative session. He
• 34:52
  Speaker 13: took a bill called SB two fifty four, which was
• 34:55
  Speaker 13: a bill to protect consumers. He removed its contents, and
• 34:59
  Speaker 13: he stuffed in two hundred and thirty one pages of
• 35:02
  Speaker 13: new language to bail out the utilities. And it happened
• 35:06
  Speaker 13: so quickly that after his legislators said they didn't even
• 35:09
  Speaker 13: know what they were voting for.
• 35:10
  Speaker 2: You're going to vote on it this week and they
• 35:13
  Speaker 2: haven't read this bill exactly.
• 35:15
  Speaker 13: The governor still refuses to show them the bill. So
• 35:18
  Speaker 13: you know, you can ask the governor, hey, where's the
• 35:20
  Speaker 13: language we did.
• 35:21
  Speaker 2: We are again pointed to last week's news conference where
• 35:23
  Speaker 2: Newsom said, this is an issue he's been working on
• 35:25
  Speaker 2: openly and not in secret for eight years.
• 35:27
  Speaker 7: We've had a long time to debate this.
• 35:30
  Speaker 2: It's familiar territory. Tenth that said, we still don't have
• 35:33
  Speaker 2: the text of the proposal or bill that could go
• 35:35
  Speaker 2: up for a vote this week. Newsom's office insists that
• 35:38
  Speaker 2: calling these bills a secret utility company bailout is just wrong.
• 35:42
  Speaker 2: The goal is to put in place major changes that
• 35:44
  Speaker 2: make sure future fire victims are made whole, that utility
• 35:47
  Speaker 2: customers across the state don't see their rates go up,
• 35:50
  Speaker 2: and utility CEOs aren't cashing big bonus checks. Joey Chen
• 35:54
  Speaker 2: wants all those things too, but she's not taking Newsom's
• 35:57
  Speaker 2: word for it.
• 35:57
  Speaker 13: For us as survivors, it's been a hell of a
• 36:01
  Speaker 13: nineteen months. It's been tough, you know, and for us
• 36:04
  Speaker 13: to be fighting to recover, to protect our children, and
• 36:08
  Speaker 13: to be getting some basic democracy from our own government,
• 36:11
  Speaker 13: to serve the people instead of corporate special interests.
• 36:15
  Speaker 1: That's all we're asking for.
• 36:16
  Speaker 13: It doesn't seem like too much.
• 36:17
  Speaker 2: Jason Nathanson KFI News.
• 36:20
  Speaker 1: So frustrating. I can't even imagine. And God bless them
• 36:25
  Speaker 1: for just they're just pushing along and pushing along nineteen
• 36:29
  Speaker 1: months later, and you know what happens at the state level,
• 36:32
  Speaker 1: it happens at the federal level, Like they introduce these
• 36:35
  Speaker 1: bills and they go, oh, I don't have time to
• 36:37
  Speaker 1: read it, just sign it. Both sides do it, yeah,
• 36:40
  Speaker 1: and they don't. Let I think they should be required
• 36:44
  Speaker 1: to read it and take a test on it before
• 36:46
  Speaker 1: they're allowed to vote on it. It's just crazy.
• 36:48
