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

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