You're listening to Wake Up Call on demand from kf I AM six forty K
five and kost H T two, Los Angeles, Orange County. Now,
Daddy, Aby King, it's five o'clock. This is your wake up call
for Monday, September eighteenth. Good morning, I'm Amy King. Well,
we're gonna be talking Dodgers today. We're gonna be talking about voting today.
It's a very important day. We're gonna talk about gas prices. Oh my
god, the gas station of my neighborhood I've filled up on Friday. It
jumped like thirty cents from Thursday to Friday. And then when I was driving
in this morning, I saw it had jumped another thirty cents a gallon.
So I know the average prices is not up that much, but at my
gas station in the last like four days, it's gone up sixty cents a
gallon. We've also got cheeseburgers to talk about today, Khan. I was
excited about that National Cheeseburger Day. Love cheeseburgers. So we're gonna have some
fun. But we've also got some serious stuff, so let's get into it.
Here's what's ahead on wake Up Call. A two hundred and fifty thousand
dollar reward has been offered for information leading to the person who ambushed and killed
in La County Sheriff's deputy in Palmdale. It happened Saturday in front of the
Palmdale sheriff station. United Auto Workers President Sean Fain says there hasn't been much
project progress in talks with the Big three automakers. The strike is entering its
fourth day. He says the fight is about the CEOs making millions off the
backs of low paid workers. Vowing to pressure and backlash. Drew Barrymore has
decided not to start up her daytime talk show again, at least not for
now. She says the show will not return until the writer's strike ends.
Writers are expected to sit down with the studios for a new round of talks
this week. Let's get started with some of the stories coming out of the
Kfight twenty four hour newsroom. The price of regular gas in La County has
shot up almost fourteen cents in one day. That was yesterday. It's up
another five cents on average today. The average is now five ninety two a
gallon in La County. That's the highest since October of last year. The
average in Orange County up almost seventeen cents a gallon yesterday, it's at five
ninety one. In the Inland Empire, the average is five seventy seven.
The Auto Club is blaming high oil costs. The national average ah another reason
to love California. The national average is three dollars in eighty nine cents a
gallon. A lawmaker from Irvine has advanced a bill to the governor intended to
help law enforcement fight online sales of fentinel. The measure, pushed by Assemblywoman
Katty Petri Norris, requires social media companies to keep data that's associated with the
sale and distribution of illegal drugs, including fentyl. Currently, many platforms allow
users to erase chats, but if signed by the governor, the new law
would require social media companies to post policies that that info could be shared with
law enforcement, and requires companies to keep data associated with accounts suspended for drug
activity for ninety days. Corbin Carson k if I news Drew Barrymore is not
restarting her talk show during the writers strike after all. She made the announcement
yesterday following days of criticism for planning to go ahead with the show. Barrymore
also apologize to anyone she hurts. She now says the show will restart when
the strike is over. Members of the Biden administration have been sent to Detroit
to support talks between the Big three automakers and striking workers. The union members
walked off the job last week demanding better pay and benefits. ABC says there
were meetings with Ford and GM over the weekend and there will be a meeting
with Statlantis today. Ford is laid off six hundred workers at its assembly plant
in Wayne, Michigan, as the United Auto Workers strike continues. General Motors
is putting two thousand people out of work as it pauses production at its Fairfax
assembly plant in Kansas. The UAW says the automakers are putting the squeeze on
the union to settle for less by laying off people who are not on strike.
Two public universities in California have come out on top. UCLA has tied
with UC Berkeley for the number one spot and the top public schools and the
twenty twenty four US News and World Report Best Colleges in America list. UCLA
and UC Berkeley also tied for number fifteen in the overall rankings of universities in
the nation. Among the factors considered in the survey where academic reputation, cost
of attendance, and return on investment. Nearly a third of the Westwood University
students our first generation college students Andy Wells KFI News. Investigators with the La
County Sheriff's Department are trying to find those responsible for the deadly shooting of an
on duty deputy in Palmdale. Sheriff Luna says the best clue so far might
be grainy surveillance video showing a car pulling up alongside a patrol suv at the
intersection of Sierra Highway in Avenue Q. The vehicles described as a two thousand
six to two twelve Toyota Corolla, dark gray in color. Luna said yesterday
he wants anyone with any type of video or recollection of being in the area
to come forward. On Saturday night, Deputy Ryan clincken Bremer was sitting in
the suv as he was approached trump behind and shot in the head. And
these suspects and I'm going to continuously refer to them as cowards because that's what
they are cowards to attack a deputy sheriff and uniform in a black and white
who's just sitting there at a red light about to go out and serve our
community. That is absolutely one hundred percent unacceptable. A bystander saw Clintin Brumer
slumped over the steering wheel. They ran over to the Palmdale station across the
street and reported the attack. Clinkin Brumer was taken to the Antelope Valley Medical
Center, where he was pronounced Dad. Deputy Broomer was thirty years old and
an eight year veteran of our Sheriff's department. He worked the majority of his
tenures serving this Palmdale community. Clintin Brumer was also a field training deputy.
His family was slown by helicopter from their homes in Santa Clarita to the hospital
in Lancaster Saturday night. A few hours later, Sheriff Luna announced that Clintin
Brumer had passed away. Clinton Brumer's death isn't just a blow to the department,
but also the cities of Palmdale and Lancaster. Lauren Bettencourt's the Mayor of
Palmdale. We stand together to mourn and pay tribute to Deputy Ryan Clintin Brumer,
or Clink as we affectionately call him here at the station, who made
the ultimate sacrifice in the line of duty. We have profound sorrow regarding this
unacceptable, an unprovoked attack, and emotions are running high. Let me be
crystal clear, this was an act of murder. This individual or individuals our
spineless criminals, and our community will join together to bring them to Jestin County
Supervisor Katherine Barger announced yesterday a reward of one hundred thousand dollars. It was
matched by the City of Palmdale, with another fifty thousand contributed by the primary
union representing deputies, for a total of two hundred and fifty thousand dollars,
with more expected. Deputy Clinkin Bremer was a third generation member of law enforcement.
His father and grandfather were also La County Sheriff's deputies, and just four
days before he was shot, Ryan Clinkinbroomer had just proposed to his girlfriend for
a wake up call. I'm Steve Gregory KFI News. You know Steve had
some really powerful posts over the weekend on Instagram and Facebook of the procession for
the deputy if you get a chance to go check out Steve Gregory, or
you also go to the KFI Instagram page because it's up there too. Let's
get back to some of the stories coming out of the KFI twenty four hour
newsroom. A spokesman for Iran's Foreign ministry says a prisoner swap with the US
is happening. Announced on State TV that six billion dollars in Iranian oil money,
once frozen in South Korea has been transferred to Cutter. ABC's Justin Finch
says that's a key part of the deal to swap five Iranian prisoners in the
US for five Americans held in Iran. They had the sin of Intelligence Committee
Mark Warner expressing concern about what Iran may do with that six billion dollars.
He wants more details on the constraints being placed on that money. The Biden
administration has said it'll make sure the money only goes toward humanitarian causes, not
Iran's nuclear program. It's not clear how the US would do that. A
man from Willowbrook is looking it up to twenty years in federal prison for robbing
three banks over a span of six days in twenty nineteen. He's doing court
this afternoon. Ricky Lewis did guilty last year to three counts of bank robbery
and one count of attempt at bank robbery. Prosecutors say he threatened to shoot
bank tellers and got away with just over four thousand dollars. A child is
suing the Claremont School District, claiming the district and school officials failed to protect
him from other students who bullied and attacked him on campus this last spring,
forcing his mom to pull him out of school for his protection. The lawsuit,
filed on his behalf by his mother, alleged's assault and battery, dangerous
conditions at L Robel Intermediate School, negligent supervision, and negligent hiring, training
and retention. The plaintiffs seeks unspecified compensatory and punitive damages. The lawsuit claims
L Roble School also has an ongoing issue issue with students fighting. A pilot
based in Van Nuys or at Van Nuys Airport, has been killed at an
air racing event in Reno. Two planes collided after they landed. The other
pilot was also killed. Yesterday. She'll say there were no civilian injuries and
that they were in the process of gathering and confirming more details about what led
to the crash. President Biden is in New York for the UN General Assembly.
ABC's Derek Wallace's tens of thousands of climate activists are also in Manhattan,
calling on Biden to end the use of fossil fuel, calling attention to the
climate emergency that no doubt many of the world leaders here for the UN General
Assembly are also finally focused on today he's actually getting to work, not just
holding high level meetings, but also holding re election fundraisers. Tickets for tonight's
Broadway for Biden fundraiser are going for as much as seventy five hundred dollars.
We're gonna be talking with ABC's Karen Travers in just a couple of minutes to
find out what else is on the agenda for President Biden. Texas Attorney General
Ken Paxton has been acquitted on all counts at his impeachment trial. State senators
voted Friday on sixteen articles of impeachment. A conviction on any one of them
would have led to an automatic removal from office. Lieutenant Governor Dan Patrick says
millions of taxpayer dollars were wasted on the impeachment effort in the next regular session.
We should amend the constitution. Well, the issue of impeachment is currently
written that allowed this flawed process to happen. Paxton was accused of abusing the
power of his office to help a political donor. He is still facing charges
of securities fraud. Okay, so in case you're just still laying in bed,
check your feet, do you have socks on? I gotta tell you
why you shouldn't do that anymore. So, apparently research have found a researchers
have found that wearing socks to bed is worse than sleeping in a toilet.
They did a poll of more than a thousand people. About eighteen percent of
people wear socks to bed. No no, it sounds suffocating. No no,
no, Well, on a cold night, which we don't get cold
winter's nights here. But when I used to live in Oregon and you go
to bed and it's really chilly, I would put on a good pair of
socks and then it kick them off once my feet warmed up. But seventy
percent of the people who wear socks to bed don't change into a clean pair
and them apparently that's that's the problem, because some socks when they tested them
and checked them for bugs and bacteria and all that stuff, found that half
of them had something called pseudo moons aragenosa. It's a type of bacteria that
causes infections the mattress next door. Researchers also discovered that some socks were dirtier
than uncleaned TV remotes and dirtier than toilets. So if you are going to
wear socks to bed, the recommendation is to put on a clean pair of
socks. Just so you know. Uh, did you know that? The
La Dodgers just clinched their tenth National League West tie in eleven years? Check
this out, Nick oh for four tonight, swing on a groundball to second
base, bets to Freeman. The Dodgers win it, six to two.
The Dodgers decade of dominance continues. They're the best in the West for the
tenth time in the past to eleven years. Yep, the Dodgers are the
champions of the National League Western Division again. They beat the Mariners tonight six
to two. The champs and the best of the West again. That means
the Dodgers are headed to the playoffs, but not for like three more weeks.
So they still have games to play. You can listen to every game
on AM five seventy l A Sports and an HD on the iHeartRadio app.
The keyword is A five seventy l A Sports. The next home game is
tonight at Dodgers Stadium, and then of course we have Blue Tober coming up,
and we'll keep you posted about that. Can't wait, boys in Blue.
Good job right now, say good morning to ABC's Karen Travers. Thanks
for patiently waiting, Karen. We've got President Biden in the Big Apple.
What's he up to this week? Yeah, he's got fundraisers today, that's
the big focus. He is a quiet day until this evening when he has
a big round of fundraisers for his reelection campaign, including a big one on
Broadway with some of the biggest stars in theater. Then tomorrow he gets down
to business at the UN with his speech to the UN General Assembly and meetings
on the sidelines of that annual gathering of world leaders, with the Prime Minister
of Israel, the President of Brazil, the UN Secretary General, and the
leaders of five Central Asian countries. The White House says his speech will echo
a similar theme that we've heard from him before at the UN about advancing a
vision of US leadership built on working with allies, working with partners to solve
global problems. He's also, of course, we're going to be talking about
continued support for the war in Ukraine. It's going to be a big issue
that world leaders will be addressing. And then later this week he'll act,
we welcome to the White House the Ukrainian President of Vladimore's Zelinsky, and they'll
be talking about that continued assistance. And Zolenski is also going to address the
General Assembly, isn't he or yeah, yeah, he is in New York
and then comes down to Washington, and you know, I think it's a
big week obviously, but probably the biggest part of his week for Zelinski is
going up to Capitol Hill, where he's going to meet with Republicans and Democrats
in both the House and Senate. And that's important because the administration has asked
for twenty four billion dollars in Ukraine funding, and right now there is a
loud group of some Republicans in the House who has said no, they will
not approve that funding. The White House last week that they felt confident that
there is enough bipartisan support to get that funding through. But when asked if
the President can assure Zelinsky in their White House meeting that that money will be
there, that the US continuous support, he said that the President doesn't make
his foreign policy based on assurances, but that the US will continue to give
its continued support to Ukraine. Well, they need our help. So ABC's
Karen Travis, thank you so much for your time. She's on a tight
schedule. We'll get a let her go. Thanks Karen, thank you.
Let's get back to some of the stories coming out of the KFI twenty four
hour newsroom. The Riverside County DA's office is getting more than two million dollars
from the Board of State and Community Corrections to fight smash and grab robberies.
Prosecutors say this kind of crime is a serious problem that impacts every single consumer
and retailer in Southern California. A dune buggy accident outside Las Vegas has left
a teenage firefighter in training from Southern California with severe burns over most of her
body. Seventeen year old America salmarn is an explorer with the Pasadena Fire Department.
Those around her say what she needs most now is support from the community.
She still hopes to serve one day. State police in Pennsylvania say nine
teenagers who escaped from a detention center in Morgantown have been captured. The teens
got away during a riot last night. Four of the night were caught less
than three miles away. The detention center is about fifteen miles away from where
an escaped inmate was caught last week, and that guy the murderer who got
away and then was on the loose for a couple of weeks. The federal
government is trying to get back twenty one billion dollars in mistake in Social Security
payments. ABC's Rhiannon Alley says much of that money went to low income and
disabled beneficiaries. A former Postal Service employee in Florida perceived about nine hundred dollars
a month since two thousand and one. The Social Security once more than one
hundred and twenty thousand dollars back because of a mistake on their end. One
woman claims are actually a former police officer. A former police officer shot on
duty in twenty eighteen says he and his wife got a letter demanding they returned
thirty thousand dollars, and his appeal was denied. The Social Security Administration says
staffing and resource constraints have challenged its service delivery, but its payment accuracy rates
remain high. Here's something kind of cool that's going on at the beach I
wanted to share with you. You know, a lot of garbage ends up
in the water, and Newport Beach is doing something about it. So they
have introduced plans to put a trash collecting water wheel into a stream, and
apparently it's supposed to sort of filter the water. It looks kind of like
a like a paddle boat wheel if I'm looking at the picture right, and
it's supposed to like scoop up the trash that flows down from communities upstream along
the San Diego Creek and the Santa Anna Delhi Channel before it gets into the
Bay and the Harbor and ultimately in the ocean. It's the West coasts first
such trash collecting water wheel, and it's apparently it's kind of a low tech,
high tech thing, so it doesn't take a ton, but it does
cost a lot of money. The project is five half million dollars. The
city council has agreed to foot three point nine million dollars for construction of it.
The wheels system should be up and running, but not for a little
bit longer until December of twenty twenty four. And this is kind of I
didn't realize this much garbage gets into the bay, but officials estimate Upper Newport
Bay gets between one hundred and five hundred tons of debris washed into it every
year. It is National voter Registration today. Are you registered to vote?
It only takes thirty seconds to register. You can either register or check to
make sure that your registration is up to date, Like if you've moved or
changed your name or anything like that, you need to go update it.
But since it's National Voter Registration Day, maybe a good time to do it.
You can go and register or check your registration at LA vote dot gov.
AT's la vote dot gov. Right now, let's say good morning to
ABC's political analyst Steve Roberts. Steve how Speaker Kevin McCarthy, of course,
has started an impeachment inquiry into President Biden. What does this really mean?
Well, what it means is this politics. This is not law or legality.
The Republicans know that they don't have the votes to impeach Joe Biden.
They probably don't even have those votes in the House where they one, the
Democratic controlled center. But that's not the point. The point here is politics.
The point is to do two things in one is to distract attention from
Donald Trump's political legal problems ninety one criminal charges in four different cases. But
in a larger sense, it's designed to sort of spread the idea well to
voters, well, they all do it. All politicians are corrupt. Of
this false equivalency that Trump might be corrupt, but Biden's corrupt too. And
the goal here is not to convert Biden supporters to Trumps supporters. That's not
going to happen. The goal here is to discourage Biden supporters. And let's
be honest, Biden already has a lot of problems even with Democrats. They're
not particularly enthusiastic are excited about it. And if you can discourage your opponent's
supporters, if you get them to not talk to their neighbors, they don't
give money, and most importantly, they might not vote, might rain that
day, or the kid's babysitter might not show up, or they got to
do an extra turn at work, and if you can get people to stay
home or to vote for a third party, you accomplished something very important.
And that's exactly what happened in two sixteen. Donald Trump's incessant campaign against Crooked
Hillary helped discourage a certain number of Democrats people forgetting and in sixteen, six
percent of American voters voted for a third party that included a lot of Sandwich
supporters, a lot of Democrats like and that was the key difference in the
key states of Wisconsin and Michigan that where Trump eat out his victory. And
four years later, instead of six percent of Americans voting third party, fewer
than two percent voted. So there's a very clear strategy here. Trump is
following the same playbook he did in two sixteen. Instead of attacking Crooked Hillary,
he's attacking Crooked Joe, but doing that through Kevin McCarthy. Absolutely.
I mean, Trump has been one of the leading proponents of impeachment. But
this is all part of the same study that they're all linked together. McCarthy
is doing this largely out of pressure from conservatives who and there's another factor here.
I mean, it's important you know, elections have consequences. And it's
true that the Republicans only control the House by a handful of poses. They
can't pass any legislation that's going to become law because it would be immediately be
buried in the Democratic Senate. But even if you control the House by one
or two votes, that means you control every committee. That means you have
subpoena power, that means you can search bank records. That means you can
hold hearings and ask questions and someone witnesses, and so Republicans, by initiating
this inquiry enhance their power to go after Biden's bank records. And again,
this has nothing to do with ever impeaching Joe Biden has nothing to do.
Is really easy to bring in criminal charges against Hunter Biden. What it has
to do is blemishing Joe Biden's reputation and discouraging Democrats who are already discouraged by
Biden's age and lack of energy and dynamism. And this is the strategy.
Throw as much money at the wall as you possibly can and hope some of
it sticks. Okay, So Steve, I have a question for you though,
because you know the Democrats are saying that there's there's nothing there. Like
you, you said that it's really not about going after President Biden, it's
about discouraging voters. But the Republicans say they have a lot of smoke and
that those bank records that they're subpoenaing could prove that Biden received money from foreign
governments or something like that. That you're saying that there's just no way that
they're going to do that, that that stuff isn't there. I don't know
what's it. I don't know what's in those bank records. I can tell
you that so far they haven't come close to proving any kind of connection.
Look, we all know that Hunter Biden's a sleas ball. We all know
that Hunter Biden engaged in all sorts of shady business deals. We know that
he tried to sell the appearance of influence with his father. We know that
no one's going to make Hunter Biden the Chamber of Commerce Man of the Year
as honorable business person. That's all true. But whether Biden Joe Biden himself
directly profited from his son's dealings has yet. There's just no smoking gun there.
And I'm quoting Ken Buck. He's one of the most conservative Republicans in
the House said that on TV over the weekend. But you can say that
Joe Biden used questionable judgment and maybe continues to use questionable judgment in terms of
how he dealt with his son. After all, Joe Biden did say my
son has done nothing wrong, and that's not true. His son was ready
to plead guilty to gun charges and tax charges. He's been indicted on those
gun charges. He's likely to be indicted on those tax charges because the original
key deal fell through last summer. This is not about making Hunter Biden into
some honorable figure. He's not. And Joe Biden, you know, to
some extent, you could argue that this is certainly understandable. Everybody understands that
Joe Biden's wife and small childs were killed many years ago. Hunter Biden and
Joe and his brother Boe Biden was the surviving small boys who had added the
injured in this wreck. Boe Biden was Joe Biden's favorite son, and he
died of brain cancer at forty six. He was the golden boy. He
was the one who's supposed to succeed Joe Biden politics. The surviving son Hunter
has battled with addiction and has been a troublesome figure for years, and Biden
is clearly obsessed on this subject. And we know from reporting that when anybody
tries to introduce the question of Hunter Biden saying maybe we should distance the White
House from him, maybe you should be more careful in your dealings with him,
Biden snaps at them and won't hear it. This is a father and
a son and whose battled addiction. It's a deep personal and emotional question.
So there's no doubt that Joe Biden is guilty of many things, but whether
he directly personally profited from Hunter's shady business dealings as yet to be proven.
So I guess we're just going to have to wait and see. And even
if they did, I'm playing the hypothetical game. Even if they said,
yep, there's a clear line this was compromised, he accepted payments, he
still wouldn't get convicted in the Senate, would he? I don't think he'd
be convicted in the Senate. But again, here's what I'm saying. The
bottom line here is that this is essentially a political process, not a legal
process, And would that kind of information be very useful to Republicans a year
from now, would that be spread over every campaign advertisement day? Put out
yes, and the slogan will become Joe Biden confused and corrupt. That's a
pretty damaging combination and it could be very serious problems for Biden politically, not
legally. Yeah, okay, and don't forget it's voter registration day, it
actually is. Steve Roberts, thank you so much for your time and your
insight this morning. I appreciated a ton any time. Sorry, Let's get
back to some of the stories coming out of the KFI twenty four hour newsroom.
About six billion dollars in Iranian assets unfrozen by South Korea now in cutter
The release is part of a plan swap for five Americans held in Iran.
The deal also includes the release of five Iranians in prison in the US.
A spokesman for Iran's foreign ministry said the swap is happening today. The UN
has revised its death toll from the flooding in Libya. Officials now say at
least thirty nine hundred and fifty eight people have been killed. Last week,
they put them number at more than eleven thousand. The revised report also says
more than nine thousand people are still missing. The military says it's searching for
an F thirty five fighter jet that went down near Charleston, South Carolina.
Officials say the pilot ejected safely yesterday after a misshap a mishap involving the jet.
The pilot's in stable condition. The plane's last known position was near Lake
Moultrie and Lake Marian. Actor Russell Brand has denied allegations of sexual assault by
four women. He says every encounter was consensual. The women spoke anonymously in
a documentary produced by several British media outlets. Some were portrayed by actors.
I was pushing him away, pushing him away as though I ended up having
to punch him really hard in his stomach to get him off, and I
was crying and he said, oh, I only want to see him a
scar or run anyway. One woman claims she was sixteen when she was assaulted.
Brand married pop star Katy Perry in twenty ten. The marriage lasted just
over a year. In twenty thirteen, Perry told Vogue she knew the real
truth about her ex husband and that she was keeping that locked in her safe
for a rainy day. Right now, let's say good morning to ABC's Stephen
Portnoy. Stephen, former President Trump had a lot to say and didn't say
a lot on Meet the Press yesterday wide ranging interview that ered yesterday, taped
earlier at Bedminster, the President's golf Club, and the new moderator Meet the
Press, Kristen Welker asked the former president about a number of things, but
what I found most interesting where with prospective two separate cases that he faces,
the one in Florida, the Marlago classified documents case, and the January sixth
case here in Washington. In the mar Lago case, the former president said
he's prepared to testify against essentially someone who's likely to be one of the prosecution
star witnesses, and that's going to be the IT team man at mar Lago
who will testify. He's right, well, the one who eventually decided to
testify against former President, that's right, who previously had indicated that this did
not happen, but later came out and said that the former president directed his
maintenance man to corner the I team man in a closet at marl Lago and
say the boss wants the video footage of boxes being moved around mar Lago destroyed.
Now. Former President Trump says, simply not true, and that he's
prepared to testify to that effect. And he also makes the point that he
did after being subpoena turnover the video evidence, which he says he could have
fought. There's I don't know if that's a very strong argument, but look,
that's one case. The other case is here in Washington, DC,
in the January sixth case, where the former president was defiant when he talked
about testifying in Florida, and he was willing to say that this particular element
that has been alleged it is not true. In the January sixth case,
when Kristin Walker tried to ask the former president what he did on that day
he was, he clammed up. He said, I'm not going to tell
you. Why should I tell you. I don't want to talk about it.
I'll talk about it when it's appropriate. Yeah. I watched it and
he said that several times. He's like, I'm not going to tell you
that. Yeah, And it makes you wonder why why did he Why was
he so willing to answer other questions but not that particular question, and it's
a very I found that very interesting. Yeah, and so Special Counsel Jack
Smith also wants to restrict Trump from talking about some of the from the twenty
twenty election interference case. Right, So that's the January sixth case here in
Washington, DC. The prosecutors in the last couple of weeks have sought a
gag order that was sealed until Friday. So the news broke on Friday that
the former president is the subject of a request from prosecutors for a narrow what
the prosecutors are calling a narrow gag order on the former president's speech when it
comes to things he might say about witnesses or parties to the case, including
the court personnel, the judge, even the citizens of Washington, DC.
And the filing cites many things that the former president's been saying on social media
and his propensity to say things, and the possibility that violence another unto where
things could happen as a result of things the president says. So this is
just a request. The fact that it's being made formally is important because if
the request is made and ultimately the order comes, it'll be very interesting to
see how former president Trump is willing to comply, and if he's not,
then what happens. Well, that's what I was just going to ask you.
If if a judge did say, okay, yeah, you can talk
about this and he does anyway, as Trump is want to do, what
happens. Well, I don't know, but in the normal course of business,
if you violate the order of a you know, sitting federal district court
judge, you could expect to have to answer for it. Yeah, and
you know, the potential for you know, contempt of court is is a
real one. And uh, you know, sometimes it can be dealt with
with a with a fine, but in other cases, you know, judges
are empowered to throw people in the lockup for violating their orders. Yeah,
okay, I'm going totally off topic because you're you're a correspondent. How did
you think Kristin did yesterday? Oh, Christin and I have been friends for
years. I think she's a wonderful person, and I think she did a
fine job yesterday, and I really liked at the end of the program how
she paid tribute to Martha Rowntree, the first moderator of Meet the Press,
who originated the show on radio in nineteen forty five and moved it to television
in forty seven, and Meet the Press as a proud tradition of being the
oldest and longest running program and broadcasting. And I'm very excited to see it
in Kristin because if it's Sunday, it's Meet the Press, right of course,
you know, I work across the street, so we have a fine
show too. By the way, I watch your show too. It's part
of my Seriously, it's part of my Sunday morning routine is I tape them
all and then I go back and watch them all have my coffee on Sunday
mornings. That's great. Thank you so much, Steve, appreciate your time
today. Let's get back to some of the stories coming out of the KFI
newsroom. Ellen Kennty, Sheriff Luna says his investigators are looking for a two
thousand and six to two twelve dark gray Toyota Corolla that may be connected with
the deadly ambush of a deputy Saturday evening in Palmdale. Check your cameras,
check your cameras. That could be the missing link to the information that we
need. Deputy Ryan Clintin Bremer was shot in the back of the head as
he sat in his patrol SUV during a red light at the intersection of Sierra
Highway and Avenue Q. Clintin Bremer was an eight year veteran of the department.
A two hundred fifty thousand dollar reward has been offered to catch those involved,
and we are we're hearing channel for is saying that we may have or
