WEBVTT 1 00:00:00.520 --> 00:00:05.679 You're listening to KFI AM six forty wake Up Call with me Amy King on 2 00:00:05.839 --> 00:00:15.599 demand on the iHeartRadio app KFI and kost HD two Los Angeles, Orange County. 3 00:00:15.599 --> 00:00:29.640 It's time for your morning wake up call. Here's Amy King. It's 4 00:00:29.800 --> 00:00:36.399 five o'clock. Good morning, Welcome to Home Day. It's Wednesday, June 5 00:00:36.439 --> 00:00:40.320 fifth. I'm Amy King. We're live everywhere on the iHeart Radio app and 6 00:00:40.439 --> 00:00:44.200 glad that we have you along this morning. Lots to get to, so 7 00:00:44.399 --> 00:00:49.920 here's what's ahead on wake up Call. The ink on President Biden's new executive 8 00:00:50.039 --> 00:00:54.759 order to restrict asylum claims at the border is barely dry, and the ACLU 9 00:00:54.840 --> 00:00:59.079 is already saying it's gonna sue. The ACLU says the order puts tens of 10 00:00:59.119 --> 00:01:02.520 thousands of live at risk migrants will be turned away at the border once the 11 00:01:02.600 --> 00:01:07.079 daily average of people trying to cross illegally hits twenty five hundred. We're going 12 00:01:07.120 --> 00:01:08.959 to be talking more about the executive order, what it does and what it 13 00:01:10.000 --> 00:01:14.560 doesn't do with ABC's Karen Travers in less than five minutes. Now that shohe 14 00:01:14.640 --> 00:01:19.680 Otani's former interpreter has pleaded guilty to stealing almost seventeen million dollars from the Dodgers 15 00:01:19.760 --> 00:01:23.480 Superstar to pay for illegal gambling debts. The Dodgers have issued a statement saying 16 00:01:23.519 --> 00:01:29.760 the team wants to move past the betting scandal you think. Governor Newsom has 17 00:01:29.760 --> 00:01:33.840 submitted a proposal to the Department of Education for four million dollars in funding for 18 00:01:34.000 --> 00:01:40.000 Californians who haven't graduated from high school to get federal financial aid to attend community 19 00:01:40.000 --> 00:01:45.599 college. It's part of the state's master plan for Career Education. The days 20 00:01:45.599 --> 00:01:49.840 of scrolling past ads on Instagram maybe over. We're going to be talking to 21 00:01:51.319 --> 00:01:56.120 our tech guru, Rich Demiro from KTLA in just a few minutes at about 22 00:01:56.159 --> 00:02:01.319 five twenty find out what that means and how we're going to lose precious scrolling 23 00:02:01.400 --> 00:02:06.799 time. Darn darn ads. Hey, did you feel that joelt yesterday? 24 00:02:07.680 --> 00:02:09.840 You didn't feel a kono? You got nothing in the ie nothing? Sorry, 25 00:02:09.840 --> 00:02:15.680 well I did. In Silver Lake. There was another earthquake near Pasadena. 26 00:02:15.719 --> 00:02:17.719 It's a three point zero. Remember there was another one just a couple 27 00:02:17.800 --> 00:02:22.360 of days ago. Felt that one too. I hope that doesn't mean there's 28 00:02:22.360 --> 00:02:27.960 another one coming at six five, right after wake up call. It's handle 29 00:02:28.000 --> 00:02:30.960 on the news. Hunter Biden's ex wife is expected to testify in his federal 30 00:02:31.000 --> 00:02:36.280 gun trial that continues today in Delaware. But let's get started with some of 31 00:02:36.319 --> 00:02:39.439 the stories coming out of the KFI twenty four hour newsroom. LAPD chief Dominic 32 00:02:39.599 --> 00:02:44.360 Choice says he has added thirty two more officers to the one hundred and ninety 33 00:02:44.360 --> 00:02:49.319 two who are already working on Metro trains and buses. Mayor Bass had requested 34 00:02:49.360 --> 00:02:53.400 a twenty percent increase in armed presence. Choy says the only staff who don't 35 00:02:53.439 --> 00:02:59.719 ride the Metro are supervisors and homeless outreach coordinators. Everyone else is physically all 36 00:02:59.719 --> 00:03:02.800 the trey range of the platforms, and there's a deployment plan that allows them 37 00:03:02.840 --> 00:03:06.240 to be assigned to two or three platforms at a time and they ride the 38 00:03:06.280 --> 00:03:09.439 train in between or the bus stops. Thela County Sheriff's Department says it has 39 00:03:09.479 --> 00:03:15.719 also added more deputies to train and bus routes. Sho hey Otani's former interpreters 40 00:03:15.719 --> 00:03:20.159 facing up to thirty three years in federal prison for stealing seventeen million dollars from 41 00:03:20.159 --> 00:03:23.719 the Dodgers Star to payoff gambling debts. You Bay Misuhara pleaded guilty to both 42 00:03:23.759 --> 00:03:27.639 bank fraud and subscribing to a false tax return. This Otani fan was waiting 43 00:03:27.639 --> 00:03:30.560 outside the courthouse and says Misuhara betrayed not only a his friend, but Dodger 44 00:03:30.639 --> 00:03:35.280 fans who also trusted it. Every time something like this happens in any sport, 45 00:03:36.080 --> 00:03:39.879 it just brings negative attention and it's unfortunate because these are our sports heroes, 46 00:03:39.960 --> 00:03:43.199 you know, for our kids. The FED said in March o Tawni 47 00:03:43.280 --> 00:03:46.319 had nothing to do with the sports gambling and was a victim in the case. 48 00:03:46.560 --> 00:03:50.599 Misuhara pleaded guilty yesterday in Santa Ana and is due in court for sentencing 49 00:03:50.639 --> 00:03:54.960 October twenty fifth. Chris Adler KFI news Dale County Board of Supervisors has extended 50 00:03:55.039 --> 00:04:00.240 a four percent cap on rent increases for stabilized units in unincorporated parts of the 51 00:04:00.280 --> 00:04:05.159 county. A new formula adopted yesterday will allow for modest increases next year. 52 00:04:05.639 --> 00:04:11.560 Supervisor Holly Mitchell says it's beneficial to both renters and landlords. We believe, 53 00:04:11.639 --> 00:04:17.600 through lots of work and collaboration and negotiation with various stakeholders, that this motion 54 00:04:17.800 --> 00:04:25.000 presents a balance fair perspective. Some landlords told the board they're hurting financially too, 55 00:04:25.120 --> 00:04:28.800 and the rent caps are affecting their ability to maintain their properties. The 56 00:04:28.839 --> 00:04:31.959 vote was three to two, with Supervisors Catherine Berger and Jenis Hahn opposing it. 57 00:04:32.480 --> 00:04:39.079 Federal prosecutors in Delaware have played excerpts from the audiobook of Hunter Biden's memoir 58 00:04:39.240 --> 00:04:43.360 at his gun trial. The jury got to hear the president's son talk about 59 00:04:43.399 --> 00:04:47.439 the years he spent battling NonStop drug addiction. ABC's Terry Moran says the jury 60 00:04:47.480 --> 00:04:53.920 also heard from the prosecution's first witness yesterday, FBI agent Erica Jensen. She 61 00:04:54.120 --> 00:05:00.959 came in to establish all these facts from that infamous laptop that Hunter Biden had, 62 00:05:00.040 --> 00:05:05.399 from the iCloud, all of his text messages, and from his own 63 00:05:05.519 --> 00:05:12.279 audiobook recording of his memoir. Hunter Biden has pleaded not guilty to charges of 64 00:05:12.319 --> 00:05:15.800 illegally buying a gun in twenty eighteen when he was a drug addict. Thousands 65 00:05:15.800 --> 00:05:20.360 of AT and T customers have reported issues with their cell service, Alex Stone 66 00:05:20.439 --> 00:05:26.519 says for several hours yesterday, users across the US reported that they couldn't make 67 00:05:26.639 --> 00:05:30.360 or receive calls to people who have other carriers. The FCC says it's investigating 68 00:05:30.360 --> 00:05:34.519 reports of wireless customers having problems making phone calls. A few months ago, 69 00:05:34.560 --> 00:05:38.879 AT and T had a large outage it blamed on an upgrade to a system 70 00:05:38.920 --> 00:05:43.319 that went wrong. AT and T says it worked with carriers to resolve the 71 00:05:43.360 --> 00:05:47.120 issue, claiming it wasn't an actual outage. Down detector show. A detector 72 00:05:47.279 --> 00:05:51.160 showed the city's most impacted were New York, Chicago, Philadelphia, Dallas, 73 00:05:51.160 --> 00:05:56.480 Pittsburgh, and Indianapolis. It's five oh six on your wake up call. 74 00:05:56.519 --> 00:05:59.720 Time to say good morning to ABC's Karen Travers. So, Karen, let's 75 00:05:59.759 --> 00:06:03.519 pick up where we left off yesterday when sources were saying the President was going 76 00:06:03.560 --> 00:06:08.240 to sign an executive order, but we didn't know quite when or what it 77 00:06:08.279 --> 00:06:11.600 was going to be. So now we know there has been an executive order 78 00:06:11.639 --> 00:06:14.240 issued. Tell us please, what's in it? Yeah, you know, 79 00:06:14.399 --> 00:06:16.600 and it was executive action. It's, you know, kind of a legal 80 00:06:16.680 --> 00:06:23.160 qualification, but executive action yesterday at the border that has new restrictions on those 81 00:06:23.279 --> 00:06:28.319 who crossed between ports of entry, and it went into effect immediately last night 82 00:06:28.439 --> 00:06:33.079 at midnight. So the border is temporarily closed to migrants seeking asylum if they've 83 00:06:33.079 --> 00:06:38.480 crossed illegally between ports of entry, and it's the toughest action the President's taken 84 00:06:38.519 --> 00:06:43.079 so far on the border. What this does is these restrictions that went into 85 00:06:43.120 --> 00:06:46.879 effect. It's because there have been seven consecutive days of more than twenty five 86 00:06:46.959 --> 00:06:53.879 hundred unlawful encounters crossings between ports of entry. We're looking at about thirty five 87 00:06:54.000 --> 00:06:58.879 hundred for the daily average right now. That restriction, the pause would only 88 00:06:58.920 --> 00:07:03.240 be lifted if there have been fourteen days of encounters at fifteen hundred or less. 89 00:07:03.800 --> 00:07:08.920 You know, some are saying it's maybe a permanent ban because at this 90 00:07:09.079 --> 00:07:14.439 point we haven't seen numbers like that fifteen hundred or fewer encounters in years. 91 00:07:14.560 --> 00:07:17.040 I mean, there were ten thousand back in December. Thirty five hundred is 92 00:07:17.040 --> 00:07:23.199 a significant drop since then, but it's still pretty significantly higher than what this 93 00:07:23.279 --> 00:07:28.279 threshold would be. President said yesterday that you can still, of course seek 94 00:07:28.480 --> 00:07:31.040 legal asylum with an appointment and going at a port of entry, but if 95 00:07:31.040 --> 00:07:35.240 you cross illegally between the ports of entry, you will not be allowed to 96 00:07:35.279 --> 00:07:42.759 claim asylum. Okay, So they're crossing illegally already or trying to and they've 97 00:07:42.759 --> 00:07:48.600 been flooding in and so up until now, because now this this action goes 98 00:07:48.639 --> 00:07:53.319 into a fact, they've basically said, okay, surrender and we'll take you 99 00:07:53.879 --> 00:07:57.639 basically into custody and haul you off and process you. So now they're just 100 00:07:57.680 --> 00:08:00.519 basically saying, Nope, you can't come across, turn around, go home. 101 00:08:00.920 --> 00:08:05.519 You can't claim asylum if you've come in not at the official port of 102 00:08:05.680 --> 00:08:09.439 entry. You have to go and do it through an appointment. You have 103 00:08:09.519 --> 00:08:13.360 to do it through there's an app but you actually have to have the official 104 00:08:13.399 --> 00:08:16.759 process when you show up at the port of entry. You cannot just come 105 00:08:16.839 --> 00:08:22.879 to anywhere along the border or over the border inside the border and then claim 106 00:08:22.920 --> 00:08:26.800 asylum. And that is how it's always been that once you got there, 107 00:08:26.959 --> 00:08:31.000 you could claim asylum because of what was happening in your country. So this 108 00:08:31.120 --> 00:08:37.000 is making it more difficult now. I should know. There are some little 109 00:08:37.039 --> 00:08:41.480 bit of wiggle room where you could say that there is such a danger back 110 00:08:41.519 --> 00:08:45.639 in your home country that there would be a consideration given to that. How 111 00:08:45.679 --> 00:08:48.600 many people will qualify, that's not known at this point, but the administration 112 00:08:48.720 --> 00:08:52.039 is saying that it's going to be a pretty strict standard, and for the 113 00:08:52.080 --> 00:08:56.240 most part, people who come in between ports of entry, the official places 114 00:08:56.279 --> 00:09:00.159 where you can come into the country claim asylum. If you don't go to 115 00:09:00.240 --> 00:09:03.440 those places, you're going to be sent back to your home country. Okay. 116 00:09:03.480 --> 00:09:07.759 And did I hear something that kids are excluded from this? Children would 117 00:09:07.799 --> 00:09:13.480 be excluded for this, and there might be some other exclusions for very older 118 00:09:13.519 --> 00:09:18.000 people, sick people, people who'd need medical care. Those would also be 119 00:09:18.080 --> 00:09:22.320 some potential exemptions. Okay. And are there any more border patrol agents and 120 00:09:22.440 --> 00:09:26.039 judges and that kind of thing that the kind of the infrastructure needed to process 121 00:09:26.039 --> 00:09:30.240 people, is that included in the executive action because the President doesn't have funding 122 00:09:30.279 --> 00:09:31.600 to be able to do that. And that was the point he made yesterday 123 00:09:31.639 --> 00:09:35.799 that you know, they'd rather this be done through Congress. This was actually 124 00:09:35.799 --> 00:09:39.399 something that was included in that bipartisan deal that had been negotiated that didn't go 125 00:09:39.480 --> 00:09:43.320 anywhere, that fell apart, of course, once it reached the House side. 126 00:09:43.440 --> 00:09:45.519 That was the whole thing we talked about a couple months ago, when 127 00:09:45.639 --> 00:09:50.120 Donald Trump put a lot of pressure publicly and privately on House Republicans to not 128 00:09:50.279 --> 00:09:56.240 move forward with that bipartisan Senate deal that would have done this specific asylum thing. 129 00:09:56.759 --> 00:09:58.440 The President said yesterday. You know, they would have preferred to address 130 00:09:58.440 --> 00:10:03.279 this through l because then you could get funding to hire more border patrol agents, 131 00:10:03.320 --> 00:10:07.519 more asylum officers, and more judges. But as a president with executive 132 00:10:07.519 --> 00:10:11.759 action, you can't conjure up funding. It's Congress who approves the funding. 133 00:10:11.799 --> 00:10:16.080 They have the purse strings, as they like to say in Washington. A 134 00:10:16.120 --> 00:10:20.519 president can't do that with executive action unless there's funding that already exists and he 135 00:10:20.559 --> 00:10:24.399 can figure out a way to shift things around. Okay, so effectively the 136 00:10:24.480 --> 00:10:28.799 action is in effect. It is right now, okay as of midnight last 137 00:10:28.879 --> 00:10:33.360 night. Okay, I'm sure there's going to be lots of news outlets at 138 00:10:33.399 --> 00:10:39.399 the border to see how it's all taken in and legal challenges to come. 139 00:10:39.519 --> 00:10:43.720 Oh yeah, ACLUS saying they're already doing absolutely all right. ABC's Karen Travis, 140 00:10:43.720 --> 00:10:46.159 thanks so much for the update and the information. Have a great day 141 00:10:46.159 --> 00:10:46.919 there, all right, you too. Let's get back to some of the 142 00:10:46.919 --> 00:10:50.399 stories coming out of the KFI twenty four hour newsroom. The CHP is looking 143 00:10:50.440 --> 00:10:54.480 for a person involved in a road rage attack in Thousand Oaks. CHP says 144 00:10:54.519 --> 00:11:00.799 two drivers got out of their cars yesterday afternoon on the twenty three and fighting. 145 00:11:01.200 --> 00:11:03.679 One of the drivers ended up in the Center median with major injuries. 146 00:11:03.759 --> 00:11:07.960 The other driver got back in his car and took off. The Pasadena Fire 147 00:11:09.000 --> 00:11:13.080 Department wants more money for more staff. The departments proposed three million dollar increase 148 00:11:13.159 --> 00:11:18.200 calls for the hiring of two additional fire inspectors to join the current roster of 149 00:11:18.279 --> 00:11:22.679 seven. Pasadena Fire Chief Chad Augustine says the city is currently completing eighty four 150 00:11:22.759 --> 00:11:26.720 percent of mandated inspections, and the added staff would bring the city to one 151 00:11:26.799 --> 00:11:33.399 hundred percent. We also have hundreds of commercial buildings that don't require annual inspections, 152 00:11:33.679 --> 00:11:35.840 but by best practice, they should be inspected every two to three years. 153 00:11:35.879 --> 00:11:41.519 Augustine's sixty nine million dollar proposal would also pay for recruit academies and an 154 00:11:41.559 --> 00:11:46.440 engineer who would teach at them. But like Trolley Kafi News, another big 155 00:11:46.480 --> 00:11:50.679 time music producer in La has been accused of sexual assault and other crimes. 156 00:11:50.039 --> 00:11:56.720 A lawsuit filed by Schanaz Mangro yesterday claims Terrius nash Aka the Dream Sex, 157 00:11:56.799 --> 00:12:00.840 trafficked her in twenty fourteen when she was twenty six years old. She says 158 00:12:00.919 --> 00:12:05.679 Nash lured her into an abusive and violent relationship after promising to make her a 159 00:12:05.720 --> 00:12:09.200 star. Nash, who was produced for Beyonce, Rihanna, Justin Bieber and 160 00:12:09.240 --> 00:12:16.519 others, says the allegations are untrue and defamatory. Amanda Knox has been convicted 161 00:12:16.720 --> 00:12:20.600 if of slander in Italy again for accusing an innocent man of her roommate's murder 162 00:12:20.639 --> 00:12:24.519 into two thousand and seven, but she will not serve any more jail time 163 00:12:24.559 --> 00:12:30.399 because the nearly four years she spent in jail counts as time already served. 164 00:12:30.799 --> 00:12:33.679 Knox was tried for the murder of her British roommate. She was found guilty 165 00:12:33.720 --> 00:12:39.679 and later exonerated. Thirty one Eyes twenty nine knows you've passed HGR twenty sixty 166 00:12:39.759 --> 00:12:43.240 sign an offen session. Voters in Arizona are going to decide whether or not 167 00:12:43.320 --> 00:12:48.440 to make illegal border crossings into the state a crime house. Republicans passed a 168 00:12:48.480 --> 00:12:52.240 resolution yesterday to put the Secure the Border Act on November's ballot. If voters 169 00:12:52.279 --> 00:12:56.440 pass it, it would allow state and local police to make border crossing arrests, 170 00:12:56.519 --> 00:13:01.240 kind of like what Texas is doing. It also includes harsher penalties for 171 00:13:01.279 --> 00:13:05.559 bringing fentanyl into the country. Some Democrats opposed the bill, saying it was 172 00:13:05.600 --> 00:13:11.320 similar to a previous measure that caused racial profiling and harassment. Students in Irvine 173 00:13:11.320 --> 00:13:15.840 have unwrapped some candy with a state of the art robot that can also spot 174 00:13:15.919 --> 00:13:20.240 lung cancer and pilled off the wrapper of the starbust. This precocious little girl 175 00:13:20.360 --> 00:13:24.480 used the robotic arms and camera to spot tiny names of US states printed on 176 00:13:24.519 --> 00:13:26.720 the back of a five dollars bill. She says it's because she loves science, 177 00:13:26.759 --> 00:13:31.799 but also I God had a sumch sturgery and to fix it they use 178 00:13:31.879 --> 00:13:37.120 something that looked like this. Providence Hospitals Brian Fuller says the life saving tech 179 00:13:37.200 --> 00:13:39.559 was on display yesterday for students and others, many who were there to get 180 00:13:39.559 --> 00:13:45.440 screened. First, ION is a robotic broncoscopy so going into the long looking 181 00:13:45.480 --> 00:13:50.639 for a lung cancer nodule. Second CT scanner that's connected to the ION and 182 00:13:50.679 --> 00:13:54.600 actually gets to a stage one cancer diagnosis. And finally, the da Vinci 183 00:13:54.759 --> 00:13:58.799 XI is a minimally invasive surgical robot. The physicians doing surgery and is using 184 00:13:58.799 --> 00:14:03.480 real robotic technology to do in this case a long resection. He says, 185 00:14:03.559 --> 00:14:07.240 Unfortunately, one in sixteen people can expect a lung cancer diagnosis, which translates 186 00:14:07.320 --> 00:14:13.159 to one every two minutes. But fortunately robots can make diagnosis and treatment a 187 00:14:13.200 --> 00:14:18.039 little easier. In Irvine, Corbin Carson KFI News, LA County supervisors voted 188 00:14:18.080 --> 00:14:24.120 to extend the current four percent cap on rent increases in all rent controlled units 189 00:14:24.120 --> 00:14:28.600 in unincorporated areas of the county for another six months. The county froze rent 190 00:14:28.639 --> 00:14:31.080 hikes on rent controlled units in March of twenty twenty because of the pandemic, 191 00:14:31.320 --> 00:14:37.120 but agreed to allow minor increases in November twenty twenty two. Hunter Biden's infamous 192 00:14:37.200 --> 00:14:41.840 laptop has been entered into evidence in his federal firearms trial in Delaware. During 193 00:14:41.840 --> 00:14:45.720 the first day of testimony, and FBI witness explained on the stand how prosecutors 194 00:14:45.720 --> 00:14:48.879 obtained evidence of Hunter Biden's drug use on the laptop. We're going to find 195 00:14:48.879 --> 00:14:52.519 out more about what happened in court yesterday and what's up for today with ABC's 196 00:14:52.559 --> 00:14:58.159 Stephen Portnoy a little bit later this hour. A little shaking in the Southland 197 00:14:58.159 --> 00:15:01.679 for the second time in a week. A three point zero magnitude earthquake jolted 198 00:15:01.840 --> 00:15:05.759 South Pasadena yesterday, near where a three point four quake hit Sunday. The 199 00:15:05.840 --> 00:15:11.000 US Geological Services the quake was felt in East La, Alhambra, Monterey Park, 200 00:15:11.039 --> 00:15:16.799 Commerce Bell and Silver Lake. Yep, I felt it. I'm hoping 201 00:15:16.799 --> 00:15:22.919 this doesn't become a normal routine thing. At six oh five's handle on the 202 00:15:22.960 --> 00:15:26.759 news. At and T customers weren't able to reach out and touch someone yesterday 203 00:15:26.360 --> 00:15:30.159 if they had another carrier. I'll tell you about that. Right now, 204 00:15:30.200 --> 00:15:33.799 let's say good morning to the host of Rich on Tech right here on KFI. 205 00:15:33.879 --> 00:15:39.360 It's Rich Demiro, also KTLA's tech guy. Rich, I hear that 206 00:15:39.399 --> 00:15:45.279 we're not going to be able to skip ads on Instagram for much longer. 207 00:15:46.120 --> 00:15:50.000 Yeah, well, they're testing something brand new, non skippable ads, and 208 00:15:50.279 --> 00:15:54.519 Instagram did confirm that they are testing this. These are ad breaks. So 209 00:15:54.559 --> 00:15:58.960 if you've ever watched YouTube, you know, without paying for the premium survey, 210 00:16:00.240 --> 00:16:03.240 you've seen these. It basically pops up when you try to watch a 211 00:16:03.279 --> 00:16:06.399 video, it counts down five four, three two one. Now you can 212 00:16:06.440 --> 00:16:10.480 skip it and go to the next thing. That is what Instagram is trying 213 00:16:10.480 --> 00:16:14.480 out. Obviously, they are trying to make more money. That's the name 214 00:16:14.519 --> 00:16:18.240 of the game here. Okay, so explain to me, like, if 215 00:16:18.279 --> 00:16:22.080 you're just scrolling, it's not going to like freeze your screen. But if 216 00:16:22.080 --> 00:16:25.639 you click on something to look at it, then that's when it would come 217 00:16:25.759 --> 00:16:29.200 up. The idea is that it is stopping you from scrolling, and that's 218 00:16:29.200 --> 00:16:33.240 what people are getting a little bit upset about because it literally pauses your entire 219 00:16:33.320 --> 00:16:37.799 experience. Oh hell to the no. Yeah, so, but look, 220 00:16:37.879 --> 00:16:41.919 it makes a lot of sense. And I stay on my radio show all 221 00:16:41.960 --> 00:16:45.960 the time the free ride is over. These companies want to make money, 222 00:16:45.960 --> 00:16:48.360 and they want to make gobs of it, and this is one way they 223 00:16:48.399 --> 00:16:52.600 can easily just turn on that spigot of cash. Is Instagram making money or 224 00:16:52.639 --> 00:16:57.159 they because I I hasn't Twitter never made money or something like that. No, 225 00:16:57.240 --> 00:17:02.320 I believe. I know Instagram is definitely making money. You know, 226 00:17:02.360 --> 00:17:04.799 they're owned by Meta. Meta makes a lot of money. I know they 227 00:17:04.839 --> 00:17:10.799 had a big hit with their with the way Apple changed the tracking mechanism on 228 00:17:10.839 --> 00:17:14.799 the iPhone. But no, these companies are making pretty good money, especially 229 00:17:14.799 --> 00:17:19.200 because Instagram is super popular and ads are very easy to target to viewers there. 230 00:17:21.160 --> 00:17:23.279 Okay, so it's just being tested now. But what I'm seeing is 231 00:17:23.319 --> 00:17:26.880 what they're doing with the stream and then creating an ad free version where you 232 00:17:26.920 --> 00:17:32.160 would pay for your Instagram. I don't know about that. I don't see 233 00:17:32.160 --> 00:17:34.960 that happening with Instagram. I know that's a rumor out there. I don't 234 00:17:36.119 --> 00:17:40.960 think that that is. Facebook's business model is to do the subscriptions. I 235 00:17:41.039 --> 00:17:45.200 do know that they have a premium if you are if you want, like 236 00:17:45.240 --> 00:17:48.400 that blue check mark, similar to what Twitter did. Yeah, but I 237 00:17:48.400 --> 00:17:51.240 think look, at the end of the day, these things are all going 238 00:17:51.279 --> 00:17:53.240 to be free because they want as many people as possible on them. But 239 00:17:53.400 --> 00:17:57.519 will there be some premium upgrades over the years. Probably, Okay, we'll 240 00:17:57.519 --> 00:18:02.680 be watching for it. And here's something that you say is a premium but 241 00:18:02.720 --> 00:18:07.240 not necessarily a premium price. It's some new headphones. Yeah. So this 242 00:18:07.279 --> 00:18:10.839 company called nothing I know, it's a funny name. They make tech accessories 243 00:18:10.880 --> 00:18:14.559 like smartphones, which I really like. But they're making some new earbuds called 244 00:18:14.599 --> 00:18:19.319 the Nothing ear and then nothing Ear A and so they're both noise cancelation. 245 00:18:19.680 --> 00:18:25.319 They've got great features, you know, great audio quality, fast charging, 246 00:18:25.400 --> 00:18:29.519 water and dust resistance. But what I love about the Nothing ear a they're 247 00:18:29.559 --> 00:18:33.279 great value. They are ninety nine dollars. They come in this cool yellow 248 00:18:33.319 --> 00:18:34.720 color if you want. You can always get black and white if you're boring. 249 00:18:36.079 --> 00:18:40.039 But they just sound great. Not to make a commentary about you, 250 00:18:40.279 --> 00:18:42.079 no, no, no, but you know, they just sound great, 251 00:18:42.079 --> 00:18:44.839 and they're like, you know, you come up with these, you know, 252 00:18:44.880 --> 00:18:48.319 I get sent so many earbuds and it's like, Okay, do I 253 00:18:48.480 --> 00:18:52.720 really have to try another pair of earbuds? And these kept going to my 254 00:18:52.759 --> 00:18:55.759 ears because I really really like them. And so when I find something I 255 00:18:55.880 --> 00:18:57.799 like, I want to tell people about it because there are so many out 256 00:18:57.799 --> 00:19:02.599 there. Okay, and these are fun and they're only for Android though no, 257 00:19:02.759 --> 00:19:04.759 they work with iPhone. But here's my my my theory on that. 258 00:19:04.799 --> 00:19:10.839 It's like iPhone has such this ecosystem of like Siri and the way that you 259 00:19:10.839 --> 00:19:14.680 know, the fast uh you know pairing and the way they switch between devices. 260 00:19:15.119 --> 00:19:18.240 So I feel like the only earbuds you want for the iPhone are the 261 00:19:18.440 --> 00:19:22.960 AirPods. But you know, with Android you have a lot more choice in 262 00:19:22.079 --> 00:19:26.359 brands, and so these are really good for Android, but yes, they 263 00:19:26.400 --> 00:19:30.599 will work on iPhone as well. Okay, I got those the Beats earbuds. 264 00:19:30.240 --> 00:19:33.480 Yeah, because the guys at the AT and T start said, oh, 265 00:19:33.519 --> 00:19:36.599 we like this so much better, but I don't like them. Well, 266 00:19:36.640 --> 00:19:41.160 they like them because they're promoted to say that. So that's the difference, 267 00:19:41.200 --> 00:19:45.559 because you know, I thought, then, oh, come on they 268 00:19:45.720 --> 00:19:48.839 you know that. Look I worked in retail. You know, people come 269 00:19:48.880 --> 00:19:51.799 in there, they whine, they dine, they schmooze, and they say, 270 00:19:51.799 --> 00:19:53.480 look here's and Apple's very good at this. You know, Apple makes 271 00:19:53.480 --> 00:19:57.920 beats and they come in there and they explain to these salespeople why you know, 272 00:19:59.000 --> 00:20:02.880 quote unquote why the are better. And because they told you why they're 273 00:20:02.920 --> 00:20:06.640 better, it's easier to sell. So that's yeah, I bought it and 274 00:20:06.680 --> 00:20:08.240 I don't like them. Okay, yeah, well you colwase your turn them 275 00:20:08.319 --> 00:20:12.240 right? Yeah? Okay, So I want to talk about passwords for a 276 00:20:12.279 --> 00:20:18.640 second because I got that notification. AT and T says they were hacked. 277 00:20:18.640 --> 00:20:22.839 Somebody else got hacked and they're like, change passwords now, And I was 278 00:20:22.880 --> 00:20:26.599 like, oh my god, how are you going to ever remember passwords? 279 00:20:26.640 --> 00:20:30.039 Because that's my big fear, like a lot of my passwords are similar because 280 00:20:30.279 --> 00:20:33.680 I'm worried that I'm going to forget them and be locked out of all of 281 00:20:33.680 --> 00:20:40.680 my accounts. Yes, and uh well yeah, So here's my advice with 282 00:20:40.720 --> 00:20:44.119 passwords. You should be using a password generator. I know it's annoying, 283 00:20:44.519 --> 00:20:48.599 but if you use just Apple products, then I would recommend using iCloud keychain. 284 00:20:48.720 --> 00:20:52.839 It will generate your passwords, it will save them, it will remember 285 00:20:52.880 --> 00:20:56.200 them. You already have a passcode to your phone, so it will, 286 00:20:56.279 --> 00:21:00.480 you know, be secure. If you're using a combination of the iPhone and 287 00:21:00.519 --> 00:21:03.759 also Google Chrome on your desktop or on your phone, that I would use 288 00:21:03.799 --> 00:21:08.000 Google's password manager, and again, it's all secured, it's going to remember 289 00:21:08.039 --> 00:21:12.000 them, it's going to generate them for you. And then if you're a 290 00:21:12.000 --> 00:21:15.599 little bit more advanced and you want something that standalone, which I would fully 291 00:21:15.640 --> 00:21:21.440 recommend, Bitwarden is free. Again, it will generate all your passwords, 292 00:21:21.440 --> 00:21:22.839 but you're going to need to come up with what's called a master password, 293 00:21:22.880 --> 00:21:26.319 the one password that lets you access all the rest. And then if you 294 00:21:26.359 --> 00:21:30.039 want something that's paid, dash Lane is really good. And you know, 295 00:21:30.079 --> 00:21:33.119 this is probably one of the most popular questions I get at this point. 296 00:21:33.440 --> 00:21:38.000 But you have to use unique passwords because when companies get hacked, if you're 297 00:21:38.079 --> 00:21:41.559 using the same password, hackers are going to use that password to access your 298 00:21:41.559 --> 00:21:48.400 other accounts, I know, and then the whole idea of going and changing 299 00:21:48.440 --> 00:21:52.039 them all is very daunting. Well, start with the important one, So 300 00:21:52.079 --> 00:21:56.160 start with your email, Start with your finance, your banking, anything that 301 00:21:56.240 --> 00:22:00.000 is sensitive information. Start with those, and then you can do you know, 302 00:22:00.079 --> 00:22:03.640 need to change Shutterfly you know today you can you know, the ones 303 00:22:03.680 --> 00:22:07.440 that are a little bit lesser you can do later on, you know, 304 00:22:07.599 --> 00:22:10.880 but start with the important ones. Okay, do you hear that wake up 305 00:22:10.920 --> 00:22:12.680 call? It's time to go change our passwords because we don't want to get 306 00:22:12.680 --> 00:22:17.359 hacked. Because everybody's getting hacked. Oh yeah, it's it's not a matter 307 00:22:17.400 --> 00:22:19.720 of it's just a matter of when every major company. It's happening too. 308 00:22:19.759 --> 00:22:23.599 So if you're using the same password again, they will figure that out. 309 00:22:23.680 --> 00:22:26.559 They will take that password. It's out, it's available on the open web. 310 00:22:26.680 --> 00:22:30.880 People can just literally see your password. They will take that and they'll 311 00:22:30.920 --> 00:22:33.799 say, oh, they're using the same password for Shutterfly that they're using for 312 00:22:33.880 --> 00:22:36.920 eBay, let me hack into their eBay account, and that's how it happens. 313 00:22:37.119 --> 00:22:41.079 M Okay, all right, fine, fine, I know, I 314 00:22:41.119 --> 00:22:42.079 know it's a pain. Okay. And before I let you go, I 315 00:22:42.119 --> 00:22:45.519 hear you liked your crochet, mister tech guy. I did learn how to 316 00:22:45.559 --> 00:22:49.119 crochet as a kid. What my neighbors? What is that? It's a 317 00:22:49.160 --> 00:22:53.880 big it's a thing now that that rich Jamiro learned how to crochet. I 318 00:22:53.880 --> 00:22:56.920 saw it on Twitter or it's not that it's not that big of a thing. 319 00:22:56.960 --> 00:23:00.559 But look, I grew up New Jersey. I was, you know, 320 00:23:00.599 --> 00:23:03.200 the kind of kid that went to their neighbor's house, like watch cable 321 00:23:03.240 --> 00:23:08.279 TV and drink tab and I learned how to yeah, and in the meantime, 322 00:23:08.319 --> 00:23:11.799 I learned how to crochet. So this is what kids did back in 323 00:23:11.839 --> 00:23:15.319 the day. You kind of knew your neighbors and you hung out with them, 324 00:23:15.400 --> 00:23:18.240 you know. And nowadays it's like, no, your kids are inside 325 00:23:18.279 --> 00:23:21.359 on their couch playing the iPad. So did you make a plant holder? 326 00:23:22.319 --> 00:23:26.759 I made a potholder? Yeah? Nice? Yeah, So that was that 327 00:23:26.839 --> 00:23:29.160 was the most I ever made. And I think they had to like end 328 00:23:29.200 --> 00:23:32.000 it because I didn't know how to like finish it well. At least they 329 00:23:32.119 --> 00:23:36.160 helped you. Yes, all right, Rich, Jamiro You're gonna get great 330 00:23:36.240 --> 00:23:41.039 tech advice, and who knows, maybe he'll teach you how to crochet on 331 00:23:41.079 --> 00:23:45.880 the radio with Rich on Tech here on KFI. It happens every Saturday from 332 00:23:45.960 --> 00:23:52.359 eleven to two. And your new streaming show is where Sunday mornings eleven am 333 00:23:52.480 --> 00:23:56.680 KTLA plus Rich works every day. Thanks Rich, all right, thanks for 334 00:23:56.680 --> 00:24:00.480 having me on you.

Former President Trump's lawyers 338 00:24:12.599 --> 00:24:17.720 have asked a judge in his hush money trial to terminate the gag order on 339 00:24:17.799 --> 00:24:21.920 him now that the trial's over. Trump is facing sentencing for thirty four felony 340 00:24:21.920 --> 00:24:26.680 convictions on July eleventh. More than half of young adult men and women are 341 00:24:26.720 --> 00:24:30.359 living at home. Recent census data sites rising inflation, student debt, and 342 00:24:30.440 --> 00:24:34.160 high housing and rent prices as reasons. Eighteen to twenty four year olds are 343 00:24:34.160 --> 00:24:37.839 moving back in with their parents. At Sikaso five, it's handle on the 344 00:24:37.880 --> 00:24:42.359 news. The mayor of Kohita, Mexico has been shot and killed hours after 345 00:24:42.400 --> 00:24:45.960 the first woman was elected President of Mexico. At five point fifty, we're 346 00:24:45.960 --> 00:24:49.720 going to be talking with Stephen Portnoy about the introduction of the so called computer 347 00:24:49.799 --> 00:25:00.720 from Hell at Hunter Biden's trial, and also what's coming today It Amy's Me's 348 00:25:00.839 --> 00:25:07.960 on it, dais on it. What I'm on streaming shows, movies, 349 00:25:07.079 --> 00:25:11.759 books. Sometimes this week I'm on the stream. I'd planned to do something 350 00:25:11.759 --> 00:25:17.440 else, but then I read that Tomorrow, June sixth is the fortieth anniversary 351 00:25:17.480 --> 00:25:22.559 of the first release of tech Tetris, which was created by a Russian computer 352 00:25:22.640 --> 00:25:27.400 engineer named Alexi I don't know how to say his last name, Paganatav. 353 00:25:29.079 --> 00:25:34.000 It became the first entertainment software to be exported from the USSR to the US, 354 00:25:34.559 --> 00:25:38.960 and a portable version was released on the Nintendo Game Boy in nineteen eighty 355 00:25:40.039 --> 00:25:45.640 nine. So that reminded me of the movie Tetris. It was released last 356 00:25:45.720 --> 00:25:51.519 year. It's on Apple TV Plus and it's based on the true story of 357 00:25:51.559 --> 00:25:56.440 a video game salesman named Hank Rogers. It stars Tarren Edgerton and he is 358 00:25:56.559 --> 00:26:00.839 the guy who played Elton John in Rocket Man. Love him really good actor. 359 00:26:02.440 --> 00:26:07.599 So this is the story of how Rogers went to the Consumer Electronics Show 360 00:26:07.640 --> 00:26:12.359 CES back in nineteen eighty eight and while he was there, he played the 361 00:26:12.440 --> 00:26:17.160 game which had just come out, and he says after he played the game, 362 00:26:17.680 --> 00:26:22.799 the falling blocks continued falling in his dream and he just became obsessed with 363 00:26:22.839 --> 00:26:29.440 it. So it is the story of his discovery of the game, how 364 00:26:29.480 --> 00:26:33.920 it sparked literally a journey around the world as he tried to license the game 365 00:26:34.000 --> 00:26:37.960 to get it out to the world, and it wasn't only the video game, 366 00:26:37.960 --> 00:26:41.880 but the arcade game and the handheld the game boy too. Nikita Efferman 367 00:26:42.720 --> 00:26:48.400 plays the creator of Tetris Alexi. We learn about him, what he gets 368 00:26:48.480 --> 00:26:56.039 for his invention that changed the video game world, really interesting insights into life 369 00:26:56.200 --> 00:27:00.559 in the Soviet Union, and along the way, this guy, Hank Rodgers 370 00:27:00.599 --> 00:27:07.240 gets just like totally into this tangled web of lies and corruption and it's all 371 00:27:07.279 --> 00:27:12.119 beyond the Iron Curtain during the Cold War, and he's basically trying to make 372 00:27:12.119 --> 00:27:15.799 an honest deal in a dishonest world. And it sounds like it might be 373 00:27:15.880 --> 00:27:19.519 kind of lame because it's a movie about how somebody's trying to get the licensing 374 00:27:19.839 --> 00:27:23.920 rights to Tetris. But it's a really good movie. I mean like I'm 375 00:27:23.960 --> 00:27:26.079 sitting on the edge of my seat going, oh my god, are they 376 00:27:26.160 --> 00:27:30.720 going to get away with it? And people are flip flopping allegiances and they're 377 00:27:30.759 --> 00:27:34.519 deceiving each other and they're trying to pull one over on each other, and 378 00:27:34.599 --> 00:27:40.640 they just made it into a really fun, compelling movie. And it also, 379 00:27:41.400 --> 00:27:44.599 on the flip side, shows some of the really grim realities of living 380 00:27:44.720 --> 00:27:48.880 in a communist USSR, which makes the movie even more thrilling and a little 381 00:27:48.880 --> 00:27:55.960 bit scary. Visually, it's super fun with this juxtaposition between live action and 382 00:27:56.039 --> 00:28:00.480 what is now a very archaic video game world, and it's of a look 383 00:28:00.480 --> 00:28:07.079 back in history, retro music and clothes and cars and computers. So it's 384 00:28:07.559 --> 00:28:11.279 really fun, really interesting, and a really great way to spend a couple 385 00:28:11.319 --> 00:28:15.519 hours on the couch. It's a great show to watch to celebrate the fortieth 386 00:28:15.519 --> 00:28:19.240 anniversary of Tetris. It is called Tetris and it's on Apple TV. Plus. 387 00:28:21.039 --> 00:28:22.319 Let's get back to some of the stories coming out of the KFI twenty 388 00:28:22.319 --> 00:28:29.039 four hour newsroom. Animal advocates say they're concerned about overpopulated shelters after a dog 389 00:28:29.240 --> 00:28:32.680 mauled a kennel worker in San Pedro. The pitbull mix latched onto the kennel 390 00:28:32.680 --> 00:28:36.920 supervisor's right leg, tearing into her flesh. The Animal Rescue Mission Shira Scott 391 00:28:36.960 --> 00:28:40.960 says the attack is an example of how overcrowded and understaffed shelters are in the 392 00:28:40.960 --> 00:28:42.839 county. We're not no kill, you never were no kill. We have 393 00:28:42.880 --> 00:28:48.759 an over population crisis happening right now at every shelter. They are killing dogs 394 00:28:48.799 --> 00:28:51.759 for space. A dog attack the worker as she tried opening the gate last 395 00:28:51.759 --> 00:28:55.200 week and it had to be put down. LA Animal Services says it's aware 396 00:28:55.240 --> 00:28:59.680 of the severity of the attack and is investigating. Chris Adler KFI News. 397 00:29:00.119 --> 00:29:03.640 A woman in her seventies has been found stabbed to death inside a home in 398 00:29:03.680 --> 00:29:07.680 South Pasadena. Police recalled just before nine last night to the home on Brent 399 00:29:07.759 --> 00:29:11.480 Avenue. The woman was dead inside.

The Port of San Diego is asking people to 401 00:29:15.720 --> 00:29:19.920 clean up plastic before it gets into waterways. As part of its That's My 402 00:29:21.039 --> 00:29:25.400 Bay awareness campaign, we want people to reduce their use of single use plastics, 403 00:29:25.640 --> 00:29:27.400 and when they can't, just try to make sure you dispose of it 404 00:29:27.480 --> 00:29:33.680 properly. The port's Emily Christiansen says people should throw a plastic away where animals 405 00:29:33.720 --> 00:29:37.880 can't get to it. Wildlife can mistake single use plastics for food, or 406 00:29:37.920 --> 00:29:41.720 they can even get stuck in pieces of single use plastic. Christiansen says plastics 407 00:29:41.759 --> 00:29:47.839 take a long time to break down and can have detrimental effects on the environment. 408 00:29:47.960 --> 00:29:49.880 She says when they're produced, a lot of greenhouse gas emissions come with 409 00:29:49.960 --> 00:29:55.440 them, and then they're used by the public and often not thrown away properly. 410 00:29:56.400 --> 00:29:59.960 NASA is said to try again this morning to launch the manned Boeing Starlin 411 00:30:00.000 --> 00:30:03.880 Liner spacecraft. The first two attempts to get astronauts Butch Wilmore and Sonny Williams 412 00:30:03.920 --> 00:30:08.720 to the International Space Station had to be scrubbed because of technical glitches. Saturday's 413 00:30:08.720 --> 00:30:12.440 attempt was aboarded with less than four minutes before the scheduled lift off because of 414 00:30:12.480 --> 00:30:18.319 a computer issue.

It affects about one hundred thousand 421 00:30:42.880 --> 00:30:47.960 units. The county freeze or froze rent hikes on rent controlled units in March 422 00:30:47.960 --> 00:30:52.640 of twenty twenty because of the COVID pandemic, but did agree to allow minor 423 00:30:52.759 --> 00:30:56.279 increases in November of twenty twenty two. The La County Board of Supervisors has 424 00:30:56.359 --> 00:31:03.839 voted to explore additional efforts for making reparations to what it calls historically disenfranchised black 425 00:31:03.920 --> 00:31:11.480 residents. Among the ideas are apologizing to black residents and their descendants and I 426 00:31:11.680 --> 00:31:15.640 love this one. An offer of a free museum for a day admission this 427 00:31:15.720 --> 00:31:19.440 month to attractions like the Natural History Museum and the County Museum of Art. 428 00:31:21.359 --> 00:31:25.839 That's going to make everything all better.

Lauper also just announced her farewell tour that will make 432 00:31:41.160 --> 00:31:45.759 a stop in la at the Intuit Dome on November twenty third. We're just 433 00:31:45.799 --> 00:31:48.720 minutes away from a handle on the news this morning, the FDA doesn't think 434 00:31:48.960 --> 00:31:52.480 psychedelic drugs are a good idea to treat PTSD. You can bet that Bill's 435 00:31:52.480 --> 00:31:56.680 going to have a lot to say about that. Right now. Let's say 436 00:31:56.720 --> 00:32:00.599 good morning too. ABC's Stephen Portnoy Steve in the first day of testimony has 437 00:32:00.599 --> 00:32:06.799 been held in Hunter Biden's federal firearms trial. The prosecution laid out their case. 438 00:32:06.839 --> 00:32:09.400 So what did they lay out? Well, what they laid out was 439 00:32:09.400 --> 00:32:15.759 some evidence. I mean evidence that included text messages from Hunter Biden to his 440 00:32:15.920 --> 00:32:20.240 then romantic partner Halle Biden, who's expected to take the stand today, and 441 00:32:20.920 --> 00:32:27.039 evidence from the laptop the lap of which Americans have heard so much about you 442 00:32:27.079 --> 00:32:30.519 know over the last couple of years. Look, the laptop is also not 443 00:32:30.640 --> 00:32:36.160 just you know, containing information that's on it physically, but it's information that 444 00:32:36.200 --> 00:32:42.079 was uploaded to the cloud in backups, So it's verified information. Regardless of 445 00:32:42.119 --> 00:32:45.680 everything you've heard about the laptop in the early reporting of it, all set 446 00:32:45.680 --> 00:32:52.400 that aside. The jury heard the text messages and saw photographic evidence of Hunter 447 00:32:52.440 --> 00:32:57.599 Biden with a crack pipe, all of it trying to used by prosecutors to 448 00:32:57.680 --> 00:33:00.880 try to demonstrate that he was addicted to drugs and using drugs at the time 449 00:33:00.920 --> 00:33:04.160 he bought the handgun, which would be a violation of the law, and 450 00:33:04.599 --> 00:33:07.480 it would indicate that he lied on the form. Now the defense is going 451 00:33:07.559 --> 00:33:12.680 to try to poke holes in all this, suggesting that perhaps Hunter Biden wasn't 452 00:33:12.680 --> 00:33:16.000 actually using drugs or addicted to drugs when he bought the gun. And Halle 453 00:33:16.000 --> 00:33:20.920 Biden will be called by the prosecutors to refute that because she found the gun 454 00:33:21.119 --> 00:33:23.799 and she'll be able to say what was going on at the time. And 455 00:33:23.880 --> 00:33:31.119 Halle Biden is his ex wife. No, Halle Biden is Vo Biden's widow 456 00:33:31.640 --> 00:33:37.960 with whom Hunter Biden had been romantically involved in the years after his brother died. 457 00:33:38.400 --> 00:33:45.599 Gotcha trying to keep track of everything? And is the defense have they 458 00:33:45.680 --> 00:33:51.400 had much of a chance to talk yet, because they questioned the FBI guy 459 00:33:51.519 --> 00:33:55.160 yesterday? Right, Well, the FBI agent was a woman who helped enter 460 00:33:55.240 --> 00:34:02.000 into evidence the audio book that had Hunter Biden describing in his own words his 461 00:34:02.039 --> 00:34:07.840 struggles with addiction. And you had the text messages all retrieved as part of 462 00:34:07.840 --> 00:34:13.280 a subpoena that the FBI and federal prosecutors issued to Apple. So the FBI 463 00:34:13.320 --> 00:34:16.239 agent essentially served as a custodian of that information, presenting it to the jury. 464 00:34:16.480 --> 00:34:22.079 And the audiobook how they played a lot of it, didn't They close 465 00:34:22.119 --> 00:34:24.480 to an hour? I understand, And it's Hunter Biden reading the book, 466 00:34:24.840 --> 00:34:30.760 that's right. Okay. What's expected to happen today, Well, Halle Biden 467 00:34:30.800 --> 00:34:34.760 will take the stand and she'll talk about how she found the gun, how 468 00:34:34.760 --> 00:34:37.679 concerned she was, and why, and that will be very interesting. Okay. 469 00:34:37.840 --> 00:34:42.760 And do we know what the jury's reaction has been so far? Well, 470 00:34:42.760 --> 00:34:47.360 they've been attentive at times, taking notes, at other times through the 471 00:34:47.360 --> 00:34:52.519 playing of the audio book, maybe losing focus because it went on for as 472 00:34:52.559 --> 00:34:55.000 long as it did. But I will tell you that, and I'm not 473 00:34:55.039 --> 00:34:59.800 in the courtroom. I'm my perch in Washington reading about it, perhaps a 474 00:34:59.840 --> 00:35:05.559 bit more closely than everybody else. But what we are seeing and hearing are 475 00:35:05.639 --> 00:35:10.079 reports that the first lady, doctor Jill, her daughter Ashley, were sitting 476 00:35:10.159 --> 00:35:15.079 in the front row right behind the defend nearly in tears as they listen to 477 00:35:15.119 --> 00:35:22.800 the audiobook and hearing Hunter describing the reaction. Yeah, I would think for 478 00:35:22.840 --> 00:35:25.960 a family member, that would be hard to hear about somebody that you love 479 00:35:27.119 --> 00:35:30.440 just being strung out on drugs and having struggles and that kind of stuff. 480 00:35:30.679 --> 00:35:35.719 And they have a no camera rule in Delaware like in New York. Is 481 00:35:35.719 --> 00:35:37.880 that why we were not seeing it? Well, this is the federal system 482 00:35:38.239 --> 00:35:42.679 and there are no cameras in federal court anywhere in the country. See, 483 00:35:42.679 --> 00:35:45.199 I always learn so much when I talk to you, Stephen, Thank you 484 00:35:45.280 --> 00:35:46.760 so much. You bet all right, take care, We'll talk to you 485 00:35:46.800 --> 00:35:50.599 soon. Let's get back to some of the stories coming out of the KFI 486 00:35:50.679 --> 00:35:54.320 twenty four hour newsroom. The LAPD has deployed an additional thirty two officers to 487 00:35:54.360 --> 00:35:59.199 beef up armed security on the Metro. The department says it uses one hundred 488 00:35:59.199 --> 00:36:01.960 and ninety two offices day, but after violent crime continued to escalate on buses 489 00:36:02.000 --> 00:36:06.599 and trains, Mayor Bass requested a twenty percent bump in patrol officers and said 490 00:36:06.599 --> 00:36:09.480 she didn't want them driving around in patrol cars.

Are you riding the buses because 492 00:36:14.320 --> 00:36:16.920 I've heard that we're not on the buses. I'm telling you we are. 493 00:36:17.400 --> 00:36:21.159 We are on the buses. Yes. The La County Sheriffs Department is also 494 00:36:21.239 --> 00:36:23.440 deployed more deputies, though it wouldn't say how many. The Long Beach Police 495 00:36:23.440 --> 00:36:28.880 Department also provides armed security. Steve Gregory kf I News See. LA County 496 00:36:28.880 --> 00:36:34.079 Sheriff's Department says it's trying to figure out who's been stealing fire hydrants from unincorporated 497 00:36:34.119 --> 00:36:37.159 parts of the county. Since January, eighty five hydrants have been taken, 498 00:36:37.519 --> 00:36:42.480 an additional fourteen have been stolen in the city of Lynnwood, and another thirteen 499 00:36:42.519 --> 00:36:46.000 have been vandalized. Officials say they think the thieves are after the brass parts 500 00:36:46.119 --> 00:36:51.920 found inside the hydrants.

A new study suggests women who follow a 510 00:37:37.199 --> 00:37:42.400 Mediterranean diet are more likely to live longer. Medical data from more than twenty 511 00:37:42.400 --> 00:37:46.440 five thousand women over up to twenty five years shows women whose diets are made 512 00:37:46.480 --> 00:37:51.960 up of mostly fruits and vegetables, legumes, nuts, fish, and healthy 513 00:37:52.000 --> 00:37:57.840 fat at a twenty three percent lower risk of mortality for all causes. Well, 514 00:37:57.840 --> 00:38:00.119 that's great, but I would miss cheetos. Okay, Remember a couple 515 00:38:00.199 --> 00:38:04.440 of weeks, or maybe it was last week, we told you the story 516 00:38:04.480 --> 00:38:08.360 about the guy from Michigan who had a suspended license, and so he had 517 00:38:08.360 --> 00:38:15.519 a court appointment with a judge and the judge was on zoom with him and 518 00:38:15.840 --> 00:38:21.119 apparently he was driving while he was on this zoom. And here's just a 519 00:38:21.159 --> 00:38:25.079 little excerpt of what the interaction between the judge and Corey Harris. Mister, 520 00:38:25.719 --> 00:38:32.079 are you driving, Ashley, I'm pulling into my doctor's office. Actually, 521 00:38:32.679 --> 00:38:38.440 he suspended and he's just driving. That is correct, your anna. Okay. 522 00:38:38.599 --> 00:38:45.440 So it was a very funny story and it's still pretty much is because 523 00:38:45.519 --> 00:38:47.239 the judge after that little interaction, said, you know what, you need 524 00:38:47.280 --> 00:38:52.239 to turn yourself in, and he did and he spent two days in jail. 525 00:38:52.920 --> 00:38:58.840 But it was really much ado about nothing and really a big misunderstanding because 526 00:39:00.679 --> 00:39:05.320 there was a clerical error and the suspension on the license was lifted in twenty 527 00:39:05.400 --> 00:39:07.880 twenty two. But he said he went along with it because the judge said, 528 00:39:07.960 --> 00:39:10.519 you know, turn yourself in, so he did, but he actually 529 00:39:10.559 --> 00:39:15.440 wasn't driving on a suspended license. It was a big misunderstanding. Still pretty 530 00:39:15.440 --> 00:39:20.360 funny, but glad it all turned out well for mister Harris.
