• 6:17
  Speaker 2: in case I was about to roll there was something
• 6:19
  Speaker 2: to grab onto. Not much.
• 6:21
  Speaker 3: All right, enough of that, Enough of that, we are
• 6:25
  Speaker 3: completely done. Let's why don't we start with the news?
• 6:27
  Speaker 2: You think so? Guys? Hey, Ann, sure what are you
• 6:30

  Speaker 3: We've actually shared a bedroom together. We it. You have
• 6:59
  Speaker 3: seen me naked, and you're you're still in there and
• 7:03
  Speaker 3: you're still in therapy over that.
• 7:05
  Speaker 2: I know that. Here we are thirty years later. All right, guys,
• 7:07
  Speaker 2: lead story.
• 7:09
  Speaker 3: This is.
• 7:11
  Speaker 2: All right. I'm reaching of the missiles.
• 7:14
  Speaker 3: Jordan's their defenses intercepted five missiles that Iran sent its way.
• 7:21
  Speaker 3: And it's uh, this pause in fighting is no longer pausing.
• 7:25
  Speaker 3: Fighting is increasing, and we're getting so many different stories.
• 7:29
  Speaker 3: It's why the President's in so much trouble because of
• 7:32
  Speaker 3: number one priorities. And I don't know, at what point
• 7:35
  Speaker 3: does you know, does no one believe anything he says
• 7:39
  Speaker 3: when he says that he tells us, For example, the
• 7:41
  Speaker 3: Iranians are desperate for a deal, They're desperate to come
• 7:45
  Speaker 3: in to the table, and.
• 7:47
  Speaker 2: Iran says, what are you talking about. No, we're not,
• 7:50
  Speaker 2: We're not in any talks.
• 7:53
  Speaker 3: And so okay, anyway, so it's it's going uh, it's
• 7:59
  Speaker 3: going south very very quickly. So it's good. And the
• 8:03
  Speaker 3: President said that he's about to unleash this hugely destructive
• 8:07
  Speaker 3: air campaign against Iran. That was yesterday and the day
• 8:11
  Speaker 3: before he wasn't. Today he is or is not. Two
• 8:15
  Speaker 3: days ago it was say yes, thena no all in
• 8:17
  Speaker 3: one day Mullyan.
• 8:21
  Speaker 4: More cuts coming.
• 8:23
  Speaker 6: The Trump administration plans to end a subsidy program that
• 8:26
  Speaker 6: helped hold premiums for Medicare drug plans. That's according to
• 8:30
  Speaker 6: the Wall Street Journal. The program is expected to provide
• 8:33
  Speaker 6: insurers with roughly three point six billion dollars in subsidies
• 8:36
  Speaker 6: this year. It's to cushion Medicare Part D premium increases,
• 8:42
  Speaker 6: but that program will not be renewed beyond this year.
• 8:46
  Speaker 6: According to the report, nearly twenty five million people were
• 8:49
  Speaker 6: enrolled in standalone Medicare Part D prescription drug plans in
• 8:53
  Speaker 6: twenty twenty six.
• 8:55
  Speaker 3: So though that subsidy is gone or will be gone,
• 8:59
  Speaker 3: and you have the administration saying that we have other
• 9:04
  Speaker 3: measures aimed at keeping Part D costs in check. I
• 9:09
  Speaker 3: should like to know what those other measures are. I
• 9:12
  Speaker 3: don't know, and I have a Part D. You know,
• 9:17
  Speaker 3: I'm on Medicare when I hit sixty five. Socialized medicine.
• 9:23
  Speaker 3: You know, I love those people that go no socialized medicine.
• 9:26
  Speaker 3: But you don't touch their Medicare. Oh no, I wonder
• 9:31
  Speaker 3: how many people who are against National Health have Medicare
• 9:34
  Speaker 3: and would give it up because of the opposition to
• 9:40
  Speaker 3: quote socialized medicine, which I don't say socialized medicine anymore.
• 9:43
  Speaker 3: Now it's Medicare for all. Because you can't use the
• 9:47
  Speaker 3: word liberal either. You have to be a progressive. Now
• 9:50
  Speaker 3: you can be a conservative. Conservative still works. Liberal doesn't.
• 9:57
  Speaker 3: Socialized national Health doesn't, bold doesn't. We're follicular channel challenge challenge.
• 10:03
  Speaker 5: Liberals tend to be really big on renaming things. Yes, uh,
• 10:09
  Speaker 5: it's always oh the unhoused.
• 10:12
  Speaker 3: Oh yeah, a lot of thing changes to yeah, undocumented.
• 10:17
  Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah, they'd like to rename things. So we have
• 10:22
  Speaker 5: a walkout. US diplomats walked out of a United Nations
• 10:26
  Speaker 5: meeting after France, of all people, criticized the country's human
• 10:33
  Speaker 5: rights record under Donald Trump. So there was this staged walkout.
• 10:37
  Speaker 5: You happen on Monday. You've got UN Security Council meeting
• 10:42
  Speaker 5: on the Ukraine Russia war. Came days after we talked
• 10:46
  Speaker 5: about this Trump administration citing forced labor allegations as it
• 10:52
  Speaker 5: imposed sweeping tariffs on dozens of countries.
• 10:55
  Speaker 2: We've seen him.
• 10:56
  Speaker 5: Jump around to look for reasons, reasons to throw tariffs
• 11:03
  Speaker 5: at different countries, and France with their criticism, our diplomats
• 11:09
  Speaker 5: got up and walked out.
• 11:11
  Speaker 3: Yep, and the administration accused France of some real cheesy comments.
• 11:16
  Speaker 2: Oh boy, okay, yeah, moving on.
• 11:21
  Speaker 6: Looks like he got what he wanted. A teenage boy
• 11:25
  Speaker 6: sixteen years old carried out a mass shooting at his
• 11:29
  Speaker 6: high school in Georgia. He killed two students and two teachers.
• 11:32
  Speaker 6: He was sentenced yesterday to life without parole. The judge
• 11:36
  Speaker 6: called his actions deliberate, contemplated evil. Colt Gray pleaded guilty
• 11:42
  Speaker 6: at all fifty five counts against him, including murder and
• 11:44
  Speaker 6: aggravated assault. The judge handed down the sentence and said,
• 11:49
  Speaker 6: you wrote I want to make history. I want people
• 11:52
  Speaker 6: to remember the pain I caused, and there you succeeded.
• 11:56
  Speaker 4: According to the judge.
• 11:57
  Speaker 3: Then they were didn't The prosecution play an intercepted phone
• 12:01
  Speaker 3: call between him and his mother in which he said,
• 12:05
  Speaker 3: I want to be remembered as one of the mass murderers.
• 12:08
  Speaker 3: And I think is a great thing that I did.
• 12:10
  Speaker 3: I believe that's the story. This kid is really well,
• 12:15
  Speaker 3: I mean, he's going to spend the rest of his life.
• 12:16
  Speaker 3: So he's gone, which is a great thing to do
• 12:20
  Speaker 3: that works well.
• 12:22
  Speaker 1: Right.
• 12:23
  Speaker 2: Lineage we know that name as they are the.
• 12:26
  Speaker 5: Cold storage warehouse that we've heard so much about the fire,
• 12:30
  Speaker 5: the warehouse that has torn apart a section of Boyle Heights,
• 12:34
  Speaker 5: not only with the fire itself, but the aftermath left
• 12:37
  Speaker 5: behind a lot of controversy over this four hundred and
• 12:40
  Speaker 5: ninety one thousand square foot warehouse, and it seems that
• 12:45
  Speaker 5: a representative for Lineage has filed to permit with a
• 12:49
  Speaker 5: Los Angeles Department of Building and Safety to rebuild that
• 12:53
  Speaker 5: massive warehouse to its original pre fire condition, an act
• 12:57
  Speaker 5: that La Mayor Karen Bass has said is a slap
• 13:01
  Speaker 5: in the face of the families of Boile Heights.
• 13:04
  Speaker 3: Yeah, now, explain that to me. How that's a slap
• 13:06
  Speaker 3: in the face. They're just saying, we want to go
• 13:08
  Speaker 3: back to what we did. Does she want them not
• 13:10
  Speaker 3: to rebuild that? She wanted to make it a part me.
• 13:13
  Speaker 2: Here's the thing.
• 13:15
  Speaker 5: She says that they shouldn't even start thinking about the
• 13:18
  Speaker 5: rebuilding process while they haven't cleaned up the mess they created.
• 13:22
  Speaker 2: I get that, but wouldn't this expedite that?
• 13:26
  Speaker 3: Yeah, it's not much of expediting what it is, not
• 13:29
  Speaker 3: delaying it. For example, the same argument would be, you're
• 13:32
  Speaker 3: the Palisades fire right, your house has gone while they're
• 13:35
  Speaker 3: while they're cleaning up the debris. You're planning to rebuild, Okay,
• 13:39
  Speaker 3: of course you would. Why wouldn't if you plan on rebuilding,
• 13:43
  Speaker 3: why wouldn't you apply for a permit while debris cleaning
• 13:46
  Speaker 3: was going on?
• 13:46
  Speaker 2: She makes no sense, sir.
• 13:48
  Speaker 5: Super horrible what boil Heights is going through. It is,
• 13:51
  Speaker 5: but at the same time community, but ultimately you want
• 13:55
  Speaker 5: it gone and cleaned it. That's the best way to
• 13:59
  Speaker 5: do it right.
• 14:00
  Speaker 3: And they're doing that, and they're cleaning it now, and
• 14:02
  Speaker 3: they're not being accused of slowing it down the cleaning.
• 14:06
  Speaker 2: There the recon.
• 14:07
  Speaker 5: Rills if they're thrilled at the the way it's being done.
• 14:12
  Speaker 3: I haven't heard a lot of complaints that it's not
• 14:14
  Speaker 3: going fast enough that And the argument is that I
• 14:17
  Speaker 3: don't know the answer to that. Maybe it is slower
• 14:20
  Speaker 3: than it should be. But that's not her bitch on
• 14:22
  Speaker 3: this one. It's how dare you go for a permit
• 14:26
  Speaker 3: while the cleanup is being done.
• 14:29
  Speaker 2: I'll tell you when you should go for a permit.
• 14:31
  Speaker 3: Stop it, stop it, Okay, don't don't start telling people
• 14:35
  Speaker 3: when to file and when not to file. It's just
• 14:38
  Speaker 3: a it's a political gambit, that's all.
• 14:41
  Speaker 2: It is. Political statement.
• 14:43
  Speaker 3: People are really pet pissed off at lineage, especially in
• 14:46
  Speaker 3: that area, and so she's jumping on the bad wagon
• 14:49
  Speaker 3: to bad mouth the fact that they're going to rebuild.
• 14:52
  Speaker 4: Doesn't doesn't it provide jobs to people?
• 14:55
  Speaker 2: Oh? God forbid? And and look, it provides a place
• 14:59
  Speaker 2: for to a nest right.
• 15:01
  Speaker 4: Now, right now. Normally it doesn't.
• 15:03
  Speaker 2: Oh normally, Yeah, okay, thank you. Yes, that's true. That's true.
• 15:08
  Speaker 2: Frozen rats.
• 15:09
  Speaker 6: Yes, Ice is flying high. They've begun arresting foreign citizens
• 15:15
  Speaker 6: with expired US visas as they travel through airports, including
• 15:19
  Speaker 6: apparently spouses of Americans. Immigration agents and plane clothes have
• 15:24
  Speaker 6: been whisking away people at check in counters and arrival
• 15:27
  Speaker 6: gates with enforcement actions and at least fifteen airports in
• 15:31
  Speaker 6: recent weeks. So these arrests appear to be an expansion
• 15:36
  Speaker 6: of an arrangement between TSA and Immigration and Customs enforcement
• 15:41
  Speaker 6: to arrest people with deportation orders. So this is expanding
• 15:45
  Speaker 6: it now to people with expired visas.
• 15:47
  Speaker 3: Apparently I think this is where the administration is blowing
• 15:51
  Speaker 3: it because what Trump is doing is still concentrating on
• 15:55
  Speaker 3: illegal immigration as being more important than almost anything else the.
• 16:00
  Speaker 2: Electorate, and I'm very happy about it.
• 16:03
  Speaker 3: Pol just came out CNN saying that I think, what's
• 16:06
  Speaker 3: seventy percent of the American citizens think that he's spending
• 16:13
  Speaker 3: too much time dealing with issues that are not particularly important,
• 16:17
  Speaker 3: and eye buy that.
• 16:19
  Speaker 2: I mean, I care a.
• 16:20
  Speaker 3: Lot more about the cost of gasoline and the cost
• 16:22
  Speaker 3: of food than I do whether an ICE agent is
• 16:25
  Speaker 3: picking up someone at the airport and all of the
• 16:27
  Speaker 3: policies there.
• 16:28
  Speaker 2: Okay, let's do one more and then we will take
• 16:30
  Speaker 2: our break, all right. J Clayton.
• 16:32
  Speaker 5: President Donald Trump's pick to lead the US intelligence community
• 16:36
  Speaker 5: was confirmed fifty one to forty seven vote yesterday night.
• 16:39
  Speaker 5: Steps into his new job a lot of garbage being
• 16:43
  Speaker 5: inherited with that. He has a legal career centered on
• 16:47
  Speaker 5: corporate law, serving as US attorney under Trump as well.
• 16:51
  Speaker 5: Now he's got to focus on what Trump and his
• 16:54
  Speaker 5: allies made their top focus, which is the deep state target.
• 17:01
  Speaker 5: They're also saying that seems likely that current and formal
• 17:05
  Speaker 5: officials are looking at this and pointing out that Clayton
• 17:08
  Speaker 5: may be there to oversee its obsolescence.
• 17:11
  Speaker 2: I'm not sure why you'd want to get rid of
• 17:13
  Speaker 2: national security. Well you don't. But is it bloated? Is
• 17:16
  Speaker 2: it not?
• 17:16
  Speaker 3: I mean that's worth studying. But it's someone who is
• 17:20
  Speaker 3: not particularly credentialed. That's what Unfortunately, the people who are
• 17:26
  Speaker 3: these cabinet secretaries, these choices are not particularly particularly well
• 17:35
  Speaker 3: credentialed or well experienced in these fields. But better than Pulty.
• 17:40
  Speaker 3: Pulty was crazy. Pulty had no national security experience zero.
• 17:44
  Speaker 3: He was a housing executive. Oh, before we get straight

  Speaker 3: any jokes. I had to literally start screaming at people,
• 19:07
  Speaker 3: what are you an oil painting to the audience. I
• 19:10
  Speaker 3: mean I was screaming it down. I mean nothing, You're

• 19:17
  Speaker 2: To one and all.
• 19:19
  Speaker 3: Now moving on with more handle on the news with
• 19:23
  Speaker 3: Amy neil Me.
• 19:26
  Speaker 4: Got a Hyundai Elantra.
• 19:28
  Speaker 6: Good luck to you. I'll tell you why in just
• 19:30
  Speaker 6: a second. State wide vehicle thefts have fallen nearly twenty
• 19:33
  Speaker 6: five percent. SHPIE says it's continuing its targeted enforcement and
• 19:38
  Speaker 6: prevention efforts. So in twenty twenty four, there were one
• 19:41
  Speaker 6: hundred and seventy six thousand vehicles stolen in California. That
• 19:45
  Speaker 6: number dropped to just over one hundred thirty three thousand
• 19:48
  Speaker 6: in twenty twenty five. That still translates to about one
• 19:52
  Speaker 6: car theft every four minutes. Of the one hundred and
• 19:55
  Speaker 6: thirty three thousand that were stolen, eighty four percent are
• 19:58
  Speaker 6: recovered and more more than half were we're recovered in
• 20:02
  Speaker 6: drivable condition. The most stolen car in California is the
• 20:07
  Speaker 6: twenty thirteen Hyundai Elantra.
• 20:12
  Speaker 5: Okay, all right, yesterday came over the wire that American
• 20:18
  Speaker 5: Airlines had this national nationwide rather ground stop and that
• 20:25
  Speaker 5: I was like, what the hell happened? And as I
• 20:27
  Speaker 5: looked more into it, it seems that they had an IT issue,
• 20:30
  Speaker 5: so if planes were already in the air, they were
• 20:33
  Speaker 5: able to land, but no flights were able to take
• 20:36
  Speaker 5: off until the issue was fixed. It now is fixed,
• 20:39
  Speaker 5: but there was some communication issues. A spokesperson said that
• 20:44
  Speaker 5: technology issues briefly impacting connectivity for some of their systems,
• 20:48
  Speaker 5: which is you'd be surprised that this doesn't happen more
• 20:53
  Speaker 5: when you think of all the technology that's built in well, for.
• 20:55
  Speaker 3: Sure, and especially since the technology is old technology, the
• 21:00
  Speaker 3: the well, the airlines probably have much better take all
• 21:03
  Speaker 3: of you. If a A doesn't when you talk about
• 21:06
  Speaker 3: the radar control centers that sort of thing.
• 21:09
  Speaker 2: Do we know how long that outage was.
• 21:12
  Speaker 4: It wasn't that long. It was an hour or two.
• 21:15
  Speaker 3: Okay, well that's still you know, having every airplane in
• 21:18
  Speaker 3: the country grounded that was supposed to take off.
• 21:20
  Speaker 2: That that'll screw things up a little bit.
• 21:25
  Speaker 4: I was googling that.
• 21:27
  Speaker 6: Oh, except you're not supposed to say google it anymore.
• 21:29
  Speaker 6: You're supposed to say search it up. I was searching
• 21:31
  Speaker 6: it up.
• 21:34
  Speaker 2: I know that sounds weird.
• 21:35
  Speaker 6: I know, a really good ride is becoming a really
• 21:41
  Speaker 6: big problem. So there's a new roller coaster at Universal Studios, Hollywood.
• 21:45
  Speaker 6: It's based on The Fast and the Furious. It's their
• 21:47
  Speaker 6: first high speed outdoor roller coaster. It rockets riders along
• 21:51
  Speaker 6: a track filled with twists and flips and inversions that
• 21:56
  Speaker 6: goes from the upper lot at Universal to the lower
• 21:59
  Speaker 6: lot and then back up again. Apparently it's a screamer
• 22:03
  Speaker 6: and that's got a lot of people not happy because
• 22:07
  Speaker 6: people into Luca Lake say when the roller coaster is running,
• 22:11
  Speaker 6: it is constant and it sounds like bloody murder over there,
• 22:14
  Speaker 6: so they can hear it all the way into the neighborhoods.
• 22:17
  Speaker 4: They say, it's like a.
• 22:17
  Speaker 6: Horror film going on, constant screaming and yelling, very intrusive.
• 22:23
  Speaker 2: Yeah, that sucks.
• 22:24
  Speaker 5: I love Universal and I enjoy it. We have passes
• 22:27
  Speaker 5: there and it's a great place. But to Luca Lake
• 22:31
  Speaker 5: is like the last of those beautiful, quiet loving neighborhoods.
• 22:36
  Speaker 3: Really expensive old homes, huge yards. I mean, it's just
• 22:40
  Speaker 3: absolutely delightful.
• 22:41
  Speaker 2: Just what you need, a real screaming community too.
• 22:44
  Speaker 3: Yeah, and all you have is someone that sounds like
• 22:46
  Speaker 3: they've been murdered with an axe twelve hours a day.
• 22:50
  Speaker 3: That's special. Anthony Fauci is in front of a Senate
• 22:55
  Speaker 3: committee right now. It is Rand Paul's committee, and Fauci's
• 23:01
  Speaker 3: taking the fifth I mean across the board, which makes sense.
• 23:06
  Speaker 2: And I'll tell you why.
• 23:07
  Speaker 3: Because he is under a criminal investigation and his attorney
• 23:12
  Speaker 3: is telling him you say nothing because they're going to
• 23:15
  Speaker 3: nail you and any contradiction you make. So he is
• 23:19
  Speaker 3: taking the fifth and keep in eye. Everybody go, oh,
• 23:21
  Speaker 3: you're taking the fifth. That means you're guilty.
• 23:23
  Speaker 2: No, it doesn't. It means you're paying attention to what.
• 23:26
  Speaker 3: Your lawyer says is what it is now they could
• 23:28
  Speaker 3: give him, they could give him a limited immunity, but
• 23:32
  Speaker 3: I don't think they have, so don't be surprised. That's
• 23:36
  Speaker 3: all he's doing is taking the fifth every question, and
• 23:38
  Speaker 3: of course you know they go through every question and
• 23:41
  Speaker 3: he takes the fifth individually, and you know it's it's
• 23:44
  Speaker 3: like anything else, it's more panically.
• 23:46
  Speaker 2: Yes, Amy, I have a question, Yes, ma'am.
• 23:48
  Speaker 6: If he was pardoned because President Biden preemptively pardoned him. Yes,
• 23:54
  Speaker 6: So was is that a blanket for anything forever? Or
• 23:58
  Speaker 6: was it it was while he was in well Jiden
• 24:02
  Speaker 6: was in office and back.
• 24:03
  Speaker 3: You can do both. Oh no, No, that a pardon
• 24:06
  Speaker 3: is a pardon. And there are two kinds of pardons.
• 24:08
  Speaker 3: Pardons that are retroactive in the sense that any crime
• 24:13
  Speaker 3: that has been committed or any crime that has been
• 24:16
  Speaker 3: accused of anybody's accused of, pardoned automatically and prospective anything
• 24:21
  Speaker 3: that might come out. For example, Hunter Biden pardoned in
• 24:26
  Speaker 3: the because he was being investigated.
• 24:28
  Speaker 2: And so if Fauci.
• 24:30
  Speaker 3: Was pardoned and we don't even know, it would be
• 24:34
  Speaker 3: a blanket pardon whatever the hell he did, then he
• 24:37
  Speaker 3: would have to testify because he's no longer he can't
• 24:40
  Speaker 3: take the fifth because they can't use your statement against
• 24:43
  Speaker 3: you if there if you can't be charged with a crime.
• 24:46
  Speaker 3: So that's why he's taking the fifth. But a pardon
• 24:49
  Speaker 3: is a pardon. It goes on forever, up to four
• 24:52
  Speaker 3: specific crimes or specific time periods.
• 24:57
  Speaker 2: Does that help? Yes, Okay, thank you, I made that
• 25:01
  Speaker 2: up all right. Moving on, So there is a couple.
• 25:07
  Speaker 5: They are the founders of something called e Commerce Bites Vytes,
• 25:13
  Speaker 5: and it's this newsletter that covers the e commerce industry,
• 25:17
  Speaker 5: you know, all kinds your eBay's and stuff like that. Well,
• 25:22
  Speaker 5: apparently they've been in this six year battle with eBay,
• 25:28
  Speaker 5: claiming that someone at eBay came after them and targeted
• 25:34
  Speaker 5: them and stocked them through mail and all kinds of escalation. Cockroaches,
• 25:40
  Speaker 5: spiders being delivered to their house, a funeral wreath, a
• 25:43
  Speaker 5: bloody pig, halloween mask, a book about surviving the death
• 25:46
  Speaker 5: of a spouse. So employees apparently also sent pornographic magazines
• 25:53
  Speaker 5: David Steiner's the husband in this in his name to
• 25:57
  Speaker 5: Nahmer's home. They to install GPS devices in the couple's car.
• 26:04
  Speaker 5: They had no idea why they were getting these things.
• 26:07
  Speaker 2: It was and it was and it was eBay. It
• 26:09
  Speaker 2: was people. It was eBay, Yes, And so uh.
• 26:14
  Speaker 4: Did they say why they did it?
• 26:16
  Speaker 2: Because yeah, because they ro ahead things they were journalists about. Yeah,
• 26:20
  Speaker 2: they were ripping an eBay.
• 26:22
  Speaker 3: It's a newsletter about eBay that were ripping into eBay.
• 26:27
  Speaker 3: And so uh what is there called e commerce bites?
• 26:30
  Speaker 3: And of course, uh, the after this lawsuit came, the
• 26:35
  Speaker 3: response was bite me. I had to say that only
• 26:38
  Speaker 3: because I can't control myself.
• 26:41
  Speaker 2: That really wasn't appropriate.
• 26:43
  Speaker 6: But moving on, Uh, FBI search in a supervisor's home.
• 26:47
  Speaker 6: Don't know what they're taking, but the FBI served warrants
• 26:49
  Speaker 6: at several locations in San Bernardino County, including County Supervisor
• 26:55
  Speaker 6: Kurt Hagmann's home. He's a member of the San Bernardino
• 26:57
  Speaker 6: County Board of Supervisors. FBI agents were seen walking out
• 27:01
  Speaker 6: of one of the buildings on the property and place
• 27:03
  Speaker 6: several boxes into one of their vehicles, but a spokesman
• 27:06
  Speaker 6: said they're unable to comment on what they're looking for
• 27:09
  Speaker 6: or what they took.
• 27:10
  Speaker 3: Yeah, and this guy also serves as vice president of
• 27:13
  Speaker 3: Ontario International Airport, the authority, so he's a fairly big
• 27:19
  Speaker 3: han show out there. And so it makes news as
• 27:22
  Speaker 3: to why they search his house, and it could be
• 27:25
  Speaker 3: you know.
• 27:26
  Speaker 2: A corollary, is that the word I'm looking for?
• 27:30
  Speaker 3: Not he's part of the search, as something else is involved,
• 27:32
  Speaker 3: But we don't know.
• 27:33
  Speaker 2: It just looks terrible, it always does, all right.
• 27:36
  Speaker 5: That vandal that we saw, and we saw him he
• 27:39
  Speaker 5: tried to put his face under.
• 27:41
  Speaker 2: His T shirt but he didn't. He take it off.
• 27:44
  Speaker 5: Spray painting horrible things like Nazi and fascists on Tesla's
• 27:49
  Speaker 5: in Orange County is wanted by the Irvine police. But
• 27:52
  Speaker 5: for some reason, for all the people that think that
• 27:55
  Speaker 5: they have cameras everywhere and they know where we are
• 27:57
  Speaker 5: at every moment, this guy's face all over the place
• 28:00
  Speaker 5: and they still haven't found him. Thirteen Tesla's. He is
• 28:04
  Speaker 5: spray painted and vandalized and.
• 28:10
  Speaker 2: They don't have him. Yeah, yeah, I don't know his
• 28:12
  Speaker 2: political beliefs.
• 28:14
  Speaker 3: Are are you going after tesla owners and instead against
• 28:16
  Speaker 3: Tesla's against any people who buy Tesla's?
• 28:20
  Speaker 2: Don't know. Ooh, here's some great news.
• 28:24
  Speaker 4: Amy executions so nice.
• 28:26
  Speaker 6: They did it twice. Florida put to death two inmates.
• 28:30
  Speaker 6: It's the first double execution in more than sixty years.
• 28:35
  Speaker 6: The first guy was a sixty eight year old former
• 28:37
  Speaker 6: police officer convict of killing an eleven year old girl
• 28:40
  Speaker 6: back in nineteen eighty seven. He was executed by lethal injection.
• 28:45
  Speaker 6: And then about five hours later, Florida executed the guy
• 28:49
  Speaker 6: who was convicted of murdering his ex fiance's parents in
• 28:53
  Speaker 6: nineteen eighty six.
• 28:54
  Speaker 4: He was eighty years old.
• 28:57
  Speaker 3: Ooh oh, A couple of fun facts about xutions, which
• 29:00
  Speaker 3: I really enjoy talking about. You know, I witnessed an
• 29:03
  Speaker 3: execution and it was one of my better days. I
• 29:06
  Speaker 3: enjoyed that very very much. Here's a little factoy the
• 29:09
  Speaker 3: gas chamber in California, which was the way people were killed.
• 29:13
  Speaker 3: Did you know that the gas chambers had two chairs
• 29:16
  Speaker 3: in it that you could do a double execution at
• 29:20
  Speaker 3: the same time. Remember the old commercials doublemint Gum Oh Boy,
• 29:24
  Speaker 3: where you had the twins that came out of a
• 29:29
  Speaker 3: double execution in which they gassed two people.
• 29:33
  Speaker 2: Did you know that, Okay, we're done.
• 29:37
  Speaker 4: I don't think any of us, any of us are
• 29:39
  Speaker 4: buying that.
• 29:40
  Speaker 2: They should do them in the round. Well they did it.
• 29:43
  Speaker 3: What they used to do is in the octagonal octagonal,
• 29:46
  Speaker 3: and it's half of a It's half of an hexagon,
• 29:53
  Speaker 3: is what it is.
• 29:54
  Speaker 2: Right now. I'll tell you.
• 29:55
  Speaker 3: At some point we'll go through it and see what
• 29:57
  Speaker 3: the gas chamber, the death chamber actually looks like. I
• 30:00
  Speaker 3: so enjoyed that when I saw that execution it was
• 30:04
  Speaker 3: I would have literally walked out into the camera and
• 30:07
  Speaker 3: say I'm going to Disneyland. It would uh wow. Okay,
