00:00:00.640 --> 00:00:05.440
You're listening to kf I AM six
forty wake Up Call with me Amy King

2
00:00:05.719 --> 00:00:13.919
on demand on the iHeartRadio apps KFI
hand KOST HD two, Los Angeles,

3
00:00:13.919 --> 00:00:23.280
Orange County. It's time for your
morning wake up call. Here's Amy King.

4
00:00:28.600 --> 00:00:34.159
This is your wake up call for
Thursday, August tenth. Good morning,

5
00:00:34.200 --> 00:00:38.640
I'm Amy King. Do you feel
that cooler weather late yesterday and this

6
00:00:38.679 --> 00:00:41.640
morning? I don't know if you've
been outside yet. I was taking out

7
00:00:41.640 --> 00:00:45.640
the trash yesterday afternoon. I got
all excited because there were rain drops maybe

8
00:00:45.679 --> 00:00:49.240
more on the way. We have
like a forty percent chance of showers and

9
00:00:49.280 --> 00:00:53.759
thunderstorms this afternoon, so I'm actually
hoping for some not necessarily the lightning.

10
00:00:54.159 --> 00:00:56.640
It was raining a little on the
way in. Was it really Yeah?

11
00:00:57.079 --> 00:01:00.840
I love that. That's weird for
us in August, right, but it's

12
00:01:00.880 --> 00:01:04.120
going to get hot again next week, so enjoy it while it's here.

13
00:01:04.159 --> 00:01:07.879
Thanks for that. Here's what's ahead
on the wake up call. A thousands

14
00:01:07.920 --> 00:01:14.480
of residents in Maui have race to
escape the fires sweeping across the island,

15
00:01:14.680 --> 00:01:19.760
which has destroyed most of the historic
town that dates back to the seventeen hundred.

16
00:01:19.840 --> 00:01:25.120
Slaina and killing at least thirty six
people. A group of protesters has

17
00:01:25.159 --> 00:01:27.640
blocked all lanes of the one thirty
four in Glendale for about three hours.

18
00:01:27.680 --> 00:01:32.359
The protest last night was to bring
attention to the plight of Armenians in art

19
00:01:32.400 --> 00:01:37.159
Stock. The LA City Attorney's office
has decided not to file any charges tied

20
00:01:37.200 --> 00:01:42.640
to a physical altercation in December between
city Councilman Kevin de Leon and an activist

21
00:01:42.040 --> 00:01:48.920
calling for him to resign following the
leaked racist tape scandal at city Hall.

22
00:01:49.000 --> 00:01:51.840
Let's get started with some of the
stories coming out of the KFI twenty four

23
00:01:51.879 --> 00:01:56.879
hour news room. Of course,
the fire in Hawaii. Raging wildfires have

24
00:01:57.000 --> 00:02:00.480
killed at least thirty six people.
The bodies were found during firefighting efforts.

25
00:02:01.000 --> 00:02:07.080
Maui Mayor Richard Bisson says the seaside
town of Lahinah is devastated, probably upwards

26
00:02:07.159 --> 00:02:14.400
of hundreds of homes, businesses and
dwellings that were burnt to the ground.

27
00:02:15.319 --> 00:02:19.599
Bisson says none of the islands hotels
have power. They've opened shelters for people

28
00:02:19.599 --> 00:02:23.159
who've been forced to leave their homes. The fires have been pushed in part

29
00:02:23.199 --> 00:02:27.080
by strong winds from Hurricane Dora south
of Hawaii, which is a category four

30
00:02:27.159 --> 00:02:31.680
storm. I have two sorority sisters
who live on the islands. One of

31
00:02:31.719 --> 00:02:37.800
them, Karen has she did that
reported in safe on social media. And

32
00:02:37.840 --> 00:02:40.800
then another one, Sean, sent
a group of us a picture and I

33
00:02:40.879 --> 00:02:45.719
just posted it on my Instagram.
I'm gonna I'll put it on the wake

34
00:02:45.800 --> 00:02:51.479
up called page two. But the
picture from her living room is just scary.

35
00:02:51.520 --> 00:02:54.080
She says they're safe, so that's
good. At least one person in

36
00:02:54.120 --> 00:02:59.240
South Korea has been killed during a
strong tropical storm hitting the country. More

37
00:02:59.280 --> 00:03:01.120
than a foot of rain has fallen
in southern areas from the storm that made

38
00:03:01.159 --> 00:03:07.039
landfall this morning. Emergency workers have
been responding to growing reports of flooding and

39
00:03:07.120 --> 00:03:09.759
landslides. More than sixteen thousand people
have been forced to leave their homes.

40
00:03:10.080 --> 00:03:16.960
That number is expected to grow.
An LAPD swat team has arrested a man

41
00:03:17.039 --> 00:03:22.520
following an hour's long standoff in Los
Felis. The man, suspected of assault

42
00:03:22.520 --> 00:03:28.039
with a deadly weapon, took off
in a stolen LADWP vehicle yesterday before officers

43
00:03:28.039 --> 00:03:31.199
fired at the car, causing him
to stop. Officials say that driver was

44
00:03:31.319 --> 00:03:38.159
acting erratically refused to surrender and appeared
to be in no pain despite being covered

45
00:03:38.159 --> 00:03:40.520
in blood. He was finally or
he finally climbed onto the roof, where

46
00:03:40.560 --> 00:03:45.560
officers moved in and took him away
on a stretcher. A man in Utah

47
00:03:45.560 --> 00:03:50.319
has been shot and killed during an
FBI raid. ABC's Josh Margaland says the

48
00:03:50.360 --> 00:03:53.919
man repeatedly posted on social media about
his desires to kill President Biden, and

49
00:03:54.039 --> 00:03:59.719
an investigation was opened earlier this year. By June, the investigation had matured

50
00:04:00.080 --> 00:04:02.360
so much so that they told the
Secret Service. Obviously, the Secret Service

51
00:04:02.439 --> 00:04:06.719
is responsible for protecting the president.
Margolin says the threats were found to be

52
00:04:06.719 --> 00:04:12.560
credible, and when agents showed up
to arrest the men yesterday, a shootout

53
00:04:12.599 --> 00:04:15.680
began. We're gonna find out more
about the raid when we talk with ABC

54
00:04:15.879 --> 00:04:20.199
Crime and Terrorism analyst Brad Garrett.
That's coming up right around five fifty ish.

55
00:04:20.399 --> 00:04:26.279
An La landmark is offering a chance
to own a piece of culinary history.

56
00:04:27.839 --> 00:04:30.959
When you walk into the Elcholo,
it feels like you've stepped back in

57
00:04:30.079 --> 00:04:35.000
time. The decor is reminiscent of
a classic canteena and has remained mostly intact

58
00:04:35.160 --> 00:04:40.199
since it opened one hundred years ago. My mother taught me to count by

59
00:04:40.360 --> 00:04:44.319
using coins in the registr. I
think it was about six or seven.

60
00:04:44.360 --> 00:04:46.879
Maybe then you were counting money at
six, Yeah, she taught me to

61
00:04:47.040 --> 00:04:51.000
count. Ron Salsbury owns the original
l COLO on Western and the other six

62
00:04:51.079 --> 00:04:56.600
locations, but he prefers the title
grandson of the founder. Did I mentioned?

63
00:04:56.680 --> 00:05:00.399
Ron's also ninety years old and the
third generation from the ones started.

64
00:05:00.120 --> 00:05:04.160
Have six generations actually working in the
restaurant. What was eld trouble like day

65
00:05:04.199 --> 00:05:08.199
one? Well, my earliest memories
that us here a little bit before I

66
00:05:08.240 --> 00:05:10.720
was born. All I can remember
is about two or three years old,

67
00:05:11.120 --> 00:05:15.040
setting in somewhere Ah. I knew
everybody was happy, There's a lot of

68
00:05:15.160 --> 00:05:17.120
energy, and it was a good
spot. I knew that. That's my

69
00:05:17.199 --> 00:05:20.439
first memories of life. Yeah,
but it's fun. But you know,

70
00:05:20.480 --> 00:05:25.680
people got to keep coming back for
the food too, right, More than

71
00:05:25.800 --> 00:05:29.759
food, it's the connection people.
I run into people all the time.

72
00:05:29.839 --> 00:05:31.680
They'll say, yeah, I love
your restaurant, And I said, stop

73
00:05:31.759 --> 00:05:35.279
right there, what do you mean
love? That's a strong word. People

74
00:05:35.399 --> 00:05:39.279
like things, but you love it. And I realized when I get into

75
00:05:39.399 --> 00:05:42.519
development a connection that you know,
you have your work, you have your

76
00:05:42.519 --> 00:05:46.000
home, and then you go out
for pleasure and if you know, going

77
00:05:46.040 --> 00:05:49.199
to a restaurant and the eating and
everything and the connection with the people in

78
00:05:49.240 --> 00:05:53.839
that restaurant is really kind of your
third place to go. Growing up around

79
00:05:53.839 --> 00:05:58.680
with this iconic restaurant, did you
know you were going to be taking this

80
00:05:58.839 --> 00:06:01.240
over? Did you want two?
Were you expected to or did you have

81
00:06:01.279 --> 00:06:06.240
another career path in mind? All
of the Bill of Ron went to college

82
00:06:06.279 --> 00:06:11.160
in Utah. He dabbled in sports
and majored in business. Then he ended

83
00:06:11.199 --> 00:06:14.279
up back at the original eld Sholo
and by then the place had become a

84
00:06:14.279 --> 00:06:17.160
hotspot for celebrities, some from the
Golden Age and some more modern. Actor

85
00:06:17.319 --> 00:06:24.560
Jack Nicholson, who was eating year
before he was in movies, became really

86
00:06:24.600 --> 00:06:28.600
well acquainted with the cocktail waitress.
They had by then mccarmen, who brought

87
00:06:28.600 --> 00:06:33.079
the nachos to us. And I
can remember going to a celebration of Nacho's

88
00:06:33.079 --> 00:06:38.920
son got married. We're in an
East La Veterans of Foreign Wars haul and

89
00:06:38.920 --> 00:06:42.480
he can manage not very fancy,
and they had milk crates there and we're

90
00:06:42.519 --> 00:06:46.279
sitting on milk crates and reading Kentucky
Fried Chicken off paper plates, and I'm

91
00:06:46.319 --> 00:06:49.759
talking to Jack Nicholson about he's trying
to commission a vote for George McGovern Ron

92
00:06:49.839 --> 00:06:54.279
says he strongly believes in giving back
to the community. He's been doing it

93
00:06:54.319 --> 00:06:57.519
in some sort of way for years, but now he's escalated the efforts.

94
00:06:57.600 --> 00:06:59.560
I tossed out, well, it's
the raised a million dollars. That's a

95
00:06:59.560 --> 00:07:03.079
good number for pediatric cancer research.
You know, if we've ever seen a

96
00:07:03.120 --> 00:07:08.040
young child suffering from cancer, it
just tears your heart out. Now,

97
00:07:08.079 --> 00:07:11.800
I thought, well, look at
all these people who have this emotional connection

98
00:07:11.839 --> 00:07:16.000
with El Cholo. It goes deep, and how giving them an opportunity by

99
00:07:16.120 --> 00:07:20.879
donating to put the permanently bond their
name with the restaurant is the big thing

100
00:07:20.879 --> 00:07:24.839
for a lot of people. And
so we thought, well, for five

101
00:07:24.839 --> 00:07:29.560
thousand dollars, we will give you
permanent endowed naming rights to the boots,

102
00:07:29.639 --> 00:07:30.879
because I think when you think of
El Chill, you think of the wooden

103
00:07:30.879 --> 00:07:34.079
boosts. That's kind of iconic thing, the hide back wooden boots. Has

104
00:07:34.120 --> 00:07:39.279
anyone bought when yet, Well,
I gave my close friends the first shot,

105
00:07:39.839 --> 00:07:43.240
and we already have twenty three taken
on that twenty three out of one

106
00:07:43.279 --> 00:07:46.560
hundred boots are already taken. Uh
huh. Yeah, So if you're in

107
00:07:46.720 --> 00:07:49.560
and thinking about it, you better
hurry out. So those are going fast.

108
00:07:50.000 --> 00:07:54.279
Ron's also offering a chance for people
to buy naming rights to entrees and

109
00:07:54.319 --> 00:07:58.000
cocktails at his other restaurants in Newport
Beach, like The Canary and Louise by

110
00:07:58.079 --> 00:08:00.959
the Bay. In fact, Ron
was able to get a regular at the

111
00:08:01.000 --> 00:08:05.839
Cannery to buy the naming rights to
their new jellyfish aquarium for one hundred thousand

112
00:08:05.920 --> 00:08:09.439
dollars. There are also lots of
other perks for those who want to donate,

113
00:08:09.480 --> 00:08:11.959
but not necessarily on that scale.
Ron says he wants to raise a

114
00:08:13.000 --> 00:08:16.439
million dollars for children's hospitals in LA
and Orange County by the end of the

115
00:08:16.519 --> 00:08:20.160
year, and I think he'll do
it. People who say I love your

116
00:08:20.160 --> 00:08:24.720
restaurants and to spread it is still
rewarding. And to think we're doing this

117
00:08:24.800 --> 00:08:31.240
everywhere else anyway, it's yeah,
I don't know how to describe it.

118
00:08:31.240 --> 00:08:33.879
It's just very rewarding. But before
I let Ron go, I had to

119
00:08:33.919 --> 00:08:37.759
ask if there was still an original
menu item on El Cholo's menu from one

120
00:08:37.840 --> 00:08:41.159
hundred years ago. He said,
Yep, it's the number one combos on

121
00:08:41.200 --> 00:08:45.080
a number one and Chelata taco beans
or ice for a wake it call,

122
00:08:45.279 --> 00:08:50.440
I'm Steve Gregory. KFI news sounds
delicious and naming rights to cocktails. I

123
00:08:50.519 --> 00:08:52.840
like that idea. For more information, you can go to KFI AM six

124
00:08:52.960 --> 00:08:58.919
forty dot com slash Cholo. A
large group of protesters and a big race

125
00:09:00.399 --> 00:09:05.759
have blocked the one thirty four freeway
interchange with the five in Glendale four hours

126
00:09:05.799 --> 00:09:13.080
to highlight a humanitarian crisis among Armenians
in Artsak kids are starving. Hundred twenty

127
00:09:13.080 --> 00:09:16.559
thousand people and thirty thousand alone just
the kids are starving and have This is

128
00:09:16.639 --> 00:09:22.039
not normal in twenty twenty three to
face genocide. The freeway was shut down

129
00:09:22.080 --> 00:09:26.759
about nine last night. Protesters say
they were trying to get the attention of

130
00:09:26.799 --> 00:09:31.240
California Democratic Congressman Adam Schiff. The
group says he hasn't done enough to stop

131
00:09:31.360 --> 00:09:37.200
ongoing blockades in Armenia. Schiff put
out a statement saying he supports the Armenian

132
00:09:37.240 --> 00:09:41.039
people and has urged the US to
take action. A memorial service is being

133
00:09:41.080 --> 00:09:46.120
held in la for a Sheriff's department
recruit who died eight months after he and

134
00:09:46.200 --> 00:09:50.399
his others were hit by a wrong
way driver in Whittier. Alejandro Martinez died

135
00:09:50.440 --> 00:09:56.000
from his injuries July twenty eighth.
Archbishop Jose Gomez will lead the service today

136
00:09:56.120 --> 00:10:01.840
as a Cathedral of Our Lady of
the Angels. Sheriff Luna is expect to

137
00:10:01.200 --> 00:10:07.399
expected to speak. The hearst is
scheduled to arrive at the cathedral just before

138
00:10:07.480 --> 00:10:13.279
nine this morning. Anaheim is set
to consider a lobbyist ordinance, whistleblower protections,

139
00:10:13.320 --> 00:10:18.639
and other transparency reforms to root out
city corruption. An FBI investigation and

140
00:10:18.759 --> 00:10:24.639
an independent investigation have alleged criminal conspiracies, money laundering, questions about lobbyists,

141
00:10:24.679 --> 00:10:28.440
elections and campaigns, plus secret meetings
about deals involving the Angels, Disney and

142
00:10:28.480 --> 00:10:33.840
more. Anahim Mayor Astley Aikin says
her proposals call for more transparency. I

143
00:10:33.879 --> 00:10:37.879
have formed a Mayor's Advisory Council to
look at the systemic issues of corruption that

144
00:10:39.000 --> 00:10:43.759
allowed a lot of the illegal actions
of the former administration to go on unfettered.

145
00:10:43.840 --> 00:10:48.799
The city council will discuss the reforms
Tuesday. In Anaheim. Corbin Carson

146
00:10:48.919 --> 00:10:52.600
kf I News. Eli Kenny supervisor
Janis Hahn is pushing in proposal to raise

147
00:10:52.639 --> 00:10:58.519
the minimum wage for tourism workers in
unincorporated areas to twenty five bucks an hour.

148
00:10:58.679 --> 00:11:01.840
This proposal would require hotels with sixty
or more rooms and parks like Universal

149
00:11:01.879 --> 00:11:07.639
Studios and Six Flags to raise pay
by eight dollars. Supervisor Janis Han says

150
00:11:07.679 --> 00:11:11.120
she expects pushback from businesses, but
I'm of the mind that an industry as

151
00:11:11.159 --> 00:11:18.679
profitable as the tourism industry in Los
Angeles County should pay their workers enough that

152
00:11:18.799 --> 00:11:22.240
they can survive. In LA County, Han says the pay increases mirrored after

153
00:11:22.279 --> 00:11:26.519
similar proposals for LA and Long Beach. She says the motion will be addressed

154
00:11:26.519 --> 00:11:31.279
at the next board meeting September twelveth
Chris Adler KFI News. Police in Washington

155
00:11:31.320 --> 00:11:35.440
State have made what they call one
of their largest drug bus ever. Officers

156
00:11:35.480 --> 00:11:41.720
in Shorelines say they see nearly three
hundred thousand fentanyl pills, ten pounds of

157
00:11:41.759 --> 00:11:45.559
fentanyl powder, a pound of coke, five pounds of heroin, guns,

158
00:11:45.720 --> 00:11:48.240
and fifty two grand in cash.
They say it was enough fentanyl to make

159
00:11:48.279 --> 00:11:54.519
more than two million lethal doses.
A new walking tour will be showing people

160
00:11:54.559 --> 00:12:01.039
the worst of San Francisco. The
Downtown Doom Loop walking tour through mid Market

161
00:12:01.120 --> 00:12:05.240
Street, the Tenderloin area, and
Union Square will show people open air drug

162
00:12:05.279 --> 00:12:11.960
markets, abandoned tech offices, and
deserted department stores. The thirty dollars tour

163
00:12:11.080 --> 00:12:18.200
is set for August twenty six.
Organizers say it's already sold out. Okay,

164
00:12:18.200 --> 00:12:22.879
here's a new challenge for people.
Apparently it's it's becoming a thing for

165
00:12:24.120 --> 00:12:28.080
people hitting midlife. They want to
do a fitness flex and that is a

166
00:12:28.159 --> 00:12:33.600
pull up, mainly women. Can
you do it? I will admit to

167
00:12:33.639 --> 00:12:37.840
you that I have never done a
pull up in my whole life, never

168
00:12:37.879 --> 00:12:41.759
been able to kono. It's probably
better that you never have to than to

169
00:12:41.840 --> 00:12:45.919
be able to have done it a
long time ago. And now it's just

170
00:12:46.000 --> 00:12:50.559
a pressing that I can't do it
anymore. Oh failure, big feel.

171
00:12:50.840 --> 00:12:54.840
Yeah. So apparently so. And
in my defense, it is particularly hard

172
00:12:54.919 --> 00:13:01.399
for women because anatomically we tend to
have more ore body strength, at least

173
00:13:01.399 --> 00:13:05.320
that's what these studies are showing.
But women are embracing exercise training, and

174
00:13:05.360 --> 00:13:07.200
so they're like, Okay, I'm
going to do a pull up. And

175
00:13:07.240 --> 00:13:13.480
there's this one lady who said,
after five months of training, she finally

176
00:13:13.519 --> 00:13:18.440
got her chin above the pull up
bar and now can do three with good

177
00:13:18.480 --> 00:13:24.360
form. It's impressive, I guess. So it's why I failed that President's

178
00:13:24.360 --> 00:13:26.639
Fitness test when I was like ten
years old, because I couldn't do a

179
00:13:26.639 --> 00:13:31.679
pull up, still can't to this
day. Burned out cars and smoking piles

180
00:13:31.720 --> 00:13:37.039
of rubble is what's left after much
of Lahina on Maui was destroyed as wind

181
00:13:37.279 --> 00:13:43.759
whipped fire swept across the island,
killing at least thirty six people and forcing

182
00:13:43.799 --> 00:13:46.320
residents to jump into the ocean to
escape the flames. A woman's been killed

183
00:13:46.320 --> 00:13:50.799
when an suv crashed into the Hammer
Toyota car dealership in Mission Hills. The

184
00:13:50.879 --> 00:13:56.879
woman got pinned underneath the suv in
the customer reception area. The La City

185
00:13:56.879 --> 00:14:01.399
Council's unanimously decided to move forward with
a plan to identify land that could be

186
00:14:01.440 --> 00:14:07.320
transferred to historically marginalized groups within the
city. At five thirty five, we've

187
00:14:07.360 --> 00:14:11.200
got another edition of Amy's on It. I'm going to be on a movie

188
00:14:11.279 --> 00:14:15.440
that you may have missed. That's
I think worth a watch. Let's say

189
00:14:15.440 --> 00:14:18.960
good Morning now too, ABC's Jim
Ryan, Jim, good Morning. Has

190
00:14:20.080 --> 00:14:26.799
Zoom made us un unwitting accomplices to
its efforts to advance artificial intelligence? Zoom

191
00:14:26.879 --> 00:14:31.559
says no, but others say maybe
it all came a few months ago when

192
00:14:31.639 --> 00:14:35.120
Zoom decided to change its terms of
service aiming and so most people just go

193
00:14:35.200 --> 00:14:37.720
through, they click okay, I
agree, and they get on with it.

194
00:14:37.720 --> 00:14:43.320
They're Zoom meetings whatever. But buried
within that service agreement, say skeptics,

195
00:14:43.720 --> 00:14:48.399
was a note that said, by
clicking agree, you are allowing Zoom

196
00:14:48.440 --> 00:14:52.320
to use the material from your meetings, the video, of the images,

197
00:14:52.360 --> 00:14:56.519
the notes, whatever, to train
up Zoom's artificial intelligence component. Right,

198
00:14:56.600 --> 00:15:01.679
So, if you weren't reading that
very carefully, if you didn't look carefully

199
00:15:01.679 --> 00:15:05.039
at the terms of service, and
who does that, he does nobody looks

200
00:15:05.080 --> 00:15:07.440
at the terms of service, Well
you should, and this is a good

201
00:15:07.480 --> 00:15:11.120
reason to do that. Okay,
Zoom says, Look, you know,

202
00:15:11.279 --> 00:15:13.639
we may be using some of this
material to train our AI, but you

203
00:15:13.679 --> 00:15:16.159
have to opt in. You didn't, You don't have to opt out.

204
00:15:16.200 --> 00:15:20.600
You're automatically opted out until you opt
in. But clicking I agree, may

205
00:15:20.600 --> 00:15:22.279
in fact do that. Then Zoom
is not the only company doing this.

206
00:15:22.480 --> 00:15:24.720
Zoom, by the way, says, sure, we may be using it,

207
00:15:24.720 --> 00:15:28.360
but you still own that content.
Right, A lot of good it

208
00:15:28.399 --> 00:15:30.360
does, I guess at that point, but yeah, you still own the

209
00:15:30.440 --> 00:15:33.320
video and the voice and the notes
that you took. Zoom is not the

210
00:15:33.360 --> 00:15:39.279
only one. Otter, which is
another company that has transcription like this Microsoft,

211
00:15:39.320 --> 00:15:43.080
they're both looking at their same kind
of artificial intelligence training products in the

212
00:15:43.080 --> 00:15:48.440
future, and so yeah, they're
using that data to too. Okay,

213
00:15:48.480 --> 00:15:52.559
So is this like what the actors
are talking about where they take your likeness

214
00:15:52.639 --> 00:15:56.080
and then they can reproduce it and
use it again. Well, I think

215
00:15:56.120 --> 00:16:00.759
that's that's kind of the umbrella for
artificial intelligence. Yeah, that's part of

216
00:16:00.799 --> 00:16:04.720
what the complaint of sag Aftra and
the w GA was that Hollywood is using

217
00:16:04.799 --> 00:16:10.720
artificial intelligence to to come up with
new scripts. If some day they may

218
00:16:10.799 --> 00:16:15.120
replace actors with artificial intelligence AI products, and we've seen how easy it is

219
00:16:15.159 --> 00:16:22.039
to replicate a voice of someone with
AI. So on the up side,

220
00:16:22.919 --> 00:16:26.919
if AI made a ME, I
could be in a Zoom meeting and not

221
00:16:26.960 --> 00:16:32.639
actually have to be there precisely,
yes, and you have an AI assistant

222
00:16:32.639 --> 00:16:36.080
who will be sitting there with you
taking notes whether you're there or not.

223
00:16:36.440 --> 00:16:40.320
Others in the room will be as
well, and you can kind of see

224
00:16:40.440 --> 00:16:45.519
the conflict over in intellectual property rights
if everybody's sitting there at the meeting with

225
00:16:45.559 --> 00:16:48.960
a different AI product from a different
company. We were all at the meeting

226
00:16:48.960 --> 00:16:52.120
and none of us were there,
Yeah, exactly, okay, and still

227
00:16:52.159 --> 00:16:53.679
getting a lot done. Yeah.
Can you opt out of that and still

228
00:16:53.799 --> 00:16:56.480
use Zoom? Yes, yeah,
you don't have to. You don't have

229
00:16:56.519 --> 00:16:59.879
to opt You don't have to opt
out. You have to opt in,

230
00:17:00.399 --> 00:17:04.319
right, So be careful read the
fine print if you if you don't want

231
00:17:04.359 --> 00:17:07.720
to do that, if you want
to click out, if you don't want,

232
00:17:07.839 --> 00:17:11.359
if you don't agree with that,
then sure you can still use Zoom,

233
00:17:11.359 --> 00:17:15.319
but your voice, her face,
her notes won't be used. I

234
00:17:15.319 --> 00:17:22.319
think there's all kind of feeding into
what the Artificial Intelligence Policy Institute recently found

235
00:17:22.359 --> 00:17:25.799
in a survey. They asked a
thousand and one registered voter than a ye

236
00:17:25.960 --> 00:17:29.559
thousand and one, but they did
a thousand and one registered voters about their

237
00:17:29.599 --> 00:17:33.079
opinions on the growth of artificial intelligence. Seven percent of Americans say, yeah,

238
00:17:33.240 --> 00:17:38.200
I'm very excited about artificial intelligence and
the potential it holds. Fourteen percent

239
00:17:38.559 --> 00:17:42.720
the end they're somewhat excited about it. Sixteen percent are completely neutral, they

240
00:17:42.720 --> 00:17:48.000
don't have an opinion. But sixty
two percent of these people asked in this

241
00:17:48.119 --> 00:17:55.039
survey were either somewhat concerned or mostly
concerned about AIM. I'm of the sixty

242
00:17:55.039 --> 00:17:56.799
two percent. That's what I'm hearing
from a lot of folks today. Although

243
00:17:56.839 --> 00:18:00.599
my brother uses it all the time, and I have a friend who uses

244
00:18:00.640 --> 00:18:02.880
it all the time, and they
think it's just the greatest thing ever.

245
00:18:03.559 --> 00:18:07.200
Well, some parts of it are. I mean, I used to an

246
00:18:07.200 --> 00:18:11.359
AI product here recently to strip the
music out of a song. Right,

247
00:18:11.519 --> 00:18:14.599
I just wanted the voice and want
of the voice isolated. So I ran

248
00:18:14.680 --> 00:18:19.160
it through this thing that's dot org
application online and it's stripped out the music

249
00:18:19.200 --> 00:18:22.720
and here was just the voice,
and it was incredible. That's kind of

250
00:18:22.759 --> 00:18:26.039
cool. Yeah, and it's here
to stay, so we might as well

251
00:18:26.079 --> 00:18:29.480
figure out how to use it best
to our advantage. Yeah, it's the

252
00:18:29.559 --> 00:18:32.960
serious stay and it's only growing.
Okay, ABC's Jim Ryan, thank you

253
00:18:32.960 --> 00:18:36.880
so much for your time this morning. He's got a zoom. Okay,

254
00:18:37.240 --> 00:18:38.400
let's get back to some of the
stories coming out of the KFI twenty four

255
00:18:38.400 --> 00:18:42.079
hour newsroom. The LA City Attorney's
offices, no charges will be filed over

256
00:18:42.079 --> 00:18:48.039
a fight between an activist and city
councilman Kevin da Leone. The scuffle happened

257
00:18:48.079 --> 00:18:52.720
in Lincoln Park in December. The
men accused each other of instigating and separately

258
00:18:52.839 --> 00:18:56.839
filed battery reports with the LAPD.
Da Leon says he's disappointed in the decision

259
00:18:57.079 --> 00:19:00.559
not to charge the man he says
attacked him, a woman on his team,

260
00:19:00.599 --> 00:19:04.720
and others. The man says he's
also disappointed about the decision not to

261
00:19:04.799 --> 00:19:11.400
charge. Daily on News brought to
you by Semper Solaris, Uber's released a

262
00:19:11.519 --> 00:19:15.680
new in app safety feature that gives
writers and drivers in LA the option to

263
00:19:15.839 --> 00:19:21.079
record audio during a trip. The
company says if the features enabled, both

264
00:19:21.119 --> 00:19:25.440
parties get a notification letting them know. Officials say the recordings are private and

265
00:19:25.519 --> 00:19:29.319
no one, not even Uber,
can listen unless a writer submits a safety

266
00:19:29.359 --> 00:19:33.759
report that includes the file. The
safety feature was first introduced in Latin America

267
00:19:33.839 --> 00:19:37.359
in twenty nineteen and is currently available
in about one hundred and fifty cities around

268
00:19:37.359 --> 00:19:45.000
the US. The OC County Sheriff's
Department says drug prevention and education programs have

269
00:19:45.079 --> 00:19:49.119
helped decrease fentanyl overdoses in the county
by five percent. Don Barnes says one

270
00:19:49.119 --> 00:19:56.079
point seven million dollars in new funding
approved this week by supervisors will help enhance

271
00:19:56.119 --> 00:20:00.519
those programs. First is to add
a deputy to our above the and Strike

272
00:20:00.640 --> 00:20:04.640
education program for fifth and sixth grade
students, and the second is to augment

273
00:20:04.759 --> 00:20:11.079
resources for our Highway Interdiction Team.
Barnes says that team stops the cartel's flow

274
00:20:11.119 --> 00:20:15.440
of drugs, money, and guns
along the five The team will get a

275
00:20:15.440 --> 00:20:21.000
new vehicle and additional drug detection canine
and new equipment that identifies drug types and

276
00:20:21.119 --> 00:20:26.160
detects guns and drugs in vehicles.
President Biden will wrap up a swing through

277
00:20:26.160 --> 00:20:30.160
the US West in Utah today,
made stops in Arizona and New Mexico,

278
00:20:30.640 --> 00:20:33.519
and we'll be speaking in Salt Lake
City to highlight the one year anniversary of

279
00:20:33.559 --> 00:20:38.880
the Pack Deck that expands benefits to
military vets who became sick after being exposed

280
00:20:38.920 --> 00:20:44.559
to toxic burn pits. Biden reportedly
will also be attending a fundraising event in

281
00:20:44.599 --> 00:20:53.839
the Park City area. And What's
Old is New? Taylor Swift is announced.

282
00:20:56.160 --> 00:20:57.359
You thought we were done with Daylor
now that her shows are done,

283
00:20:57.400 --> 00:21:02.680
Nope, She's announced she's re recording
and will soon release Taylor's version of her

284
00:21:03.200 --> 00:21:07.319
fourteen album nineteen eighty nine. Now. The rerelease of some of her hottest

285
00:21:07.359 --> 00:21:11.400
hits follows Scooter Braun's controversial acquisition of
her masters. She said the album has

286
00:21:11.559 --> 00:21:15.240
changed her life in countless ways,
apparently so she wants to share it again.

287
00:21:15.279 --> 00:21:21.440
It's going to drop on October twenty
seven. Thousands of residents on Maui

288
00:21:21.559 --> 00:21:26.240
have raced to escape the fires sweeping
across the island that have destroyed much of

289
00:21:26.279 --> 00:21:33.160
the historic town dating back to the
seventeen hundreds and killing at least thirty six

290
00:21:33.200 --> 00:21:36.640
people. A group of protesters has
blocked all the lanes of the one thirty

291
00:21:36.640 --> 00:21:38.839
four in Glendale did it for about
three hours. The group was calling on

292
00:21:38.880 --> 00:21:44.119
Congressman Adam Shift to do more to
stop a blockade of a mountains supply corridor

293
00:21:44.160 --> 00:21:48.799
in Armenia. Virgin Galactic has set
to launch its second commercial space flight from

294
00:21:48.799 --> 00:21:52.559
New Mexico this morning. On board
will be the first mother daughter duo to

295
00:21:52.599 --> 00:21:56.039
go to the edge of space,
and an eighty year old Olympic canoeist who

296
00:21:56.119 --> 00:22:00.519
bought his ticket for a quarter million
dollars at six so five is handle on

297
00:22:00.559 --> 00:22:07.039
the news. President Biden has ordered
a ban on certain US tech investments on

298
00:22:07.240 --> 00:22:11.559
China. I'm going to take a
look at that right now. It's time

299
00:22:11.160 --> 00:22:26.160
four Amy's on it. I might
have to change the name of it.

300
00:22:26.079 --> 00:22:29.440
It seems a little self serving to
do a during wake up call, but

301
00:22:29.480 --> 00:22:33.839
it was a feature that I was
doing with later with Moll Kelly on Fridays.

302
00:22:33.920 --> 00:22:37.079
We were because we talked a lot
about entertainment things, and I thought

303
00:22:37.079 --> 00:22:41.799
it was kind of a fun feature
because what I'm on is streaming shows.

304
00:22:41.960 --> 00:22:45.599
Basically some network shows, but a
lot of streaming shows because there's so much

305
00:22:45.640 --> 00:22:49.160
content out there, and if you
just go onto like Netflix and start start

306
00:22:49.240 --> 00:22:52.960
searching through it, there's so much
there, Like how do you pick what

307
00:22:53.079 --> 00:22:56.759
to to watch and not to watch? And a lot of times they take

308
00:22:56.799 --> 00:23:02.119
recommendations for my friends, that's how
I find great shows, and so I

309
00:23:02.160 --> 00:23:06.079
thought that it might be nice if
I would watch these shows, take a

310
00:23:06.119 --> 00:23:10.839
bullet for you in some regards when
the show's really bad, and maybe share

311
00:23:10.880 --> 00:23:15.720
some really great shows too. So
the show that I watched this week is

312
00:23:17.400 --> 00:23:19.359
not super old. I believe it
came out last year. It's called A

313
00:23:19.440 --> 00:23:26.839
Man Called Auto. It's on Netflix, and its stars Tom Hanks. And

314
00:23:26.640 --> 00:23:30.680
at first I think I saw it, and I tried to start it one

315
00:23:30.720 --> 00:23:33.960
time and wasn't really paying attention.
So I was like, Oh, it's

316
00:23:33.000 --> 00:23:36.400
about a grumpy old guy, No
big deal, although I you know,

317
00:23:36.440 --> 00:23:38.240
I mean, like, inherently I
love Tom Hanks, so I'm going to

318
00:23:38.319 --> 00:23:41.359
give him the benefit of the doubts
right out of the gate for that.

319
00:23:41.640 --> 00:23:45.240
But I sat down the other day
and watched it, and it is about

320
00:23:45.240 --> 00:23:51.000
a grumpy old man. He recently
lost his wife and it just doesn't want

321
00:23:51.000 --> 00:23:55.440
to live anymore, and he is
mean and nasty to all the neighbors.

322
00:23:55.839 --> 00:23:59.839
He's well, he's pretty much a
jerk to anybody crosses paths with. And

323
00:24:00.039 --> 00:24:06.119
so it starts out that way,
and then somewhat predictably, his icy exterior

324
00:24:06.240 --> 00:24:08.720
starts to thought. And that's because
of these new neighbors who move in and

325
00:24:08.799 --> 00:24:12.759
in spite of him, being mean
and nasty. They just keep coming back.

326
00:24:12.880 --> 00:24:15.680
Hi, Hi Auto, Hi Auto, and they're really nice to him,

327
00:24:15.680 --> 00:24:21.119
and he slowly starts to warm up
to it, and it turns out

328
00:24:21.160 --> 00:24:26.480
to be kind of sweet, heartwarming. And you see his love story with

329
00:24:26.519 --> 00:24:30.799
his wife, which he's so devastated
about losing, which you find out right

330
00:24:30.839 --> 00:24:33.720
from the very beginning. So I'm
not giving anything away, but you see

331
00:24:33.759 --> 00:24:37.079
that love story, and you see
what happens in his life and how he

332
00:24:37.200 --> 00:24:40.240
ended up where he is. And
I will tell you get the clean X

333
00:24:40.279 --> 00:24:45.200
ready. You're gonna need him because
it was a real tear jerker at certain

334
00:24:45.240 --> 00:24:49.519
points. Good movie, no big
surprises, but I would say worth the

335
00:24:49.559 --> 00:24:56.799
watch. So it's a man called
Auto, It's on Netflix. Pretty interesting

336
00:24:56.839 --> 00:25:00.400
story and it's a good way to
spend a couple of hours. At five

337
00:25:00.519 --> 00:25:04.519
fifty, we're gonna be talking with
ABC analyst Brad Garrett. This guy knows

338
00:25:04.640 --> 00:25:11.240
his stuff, and we're gonna be
talking about the guy who was killed in

339
00:25:11.359 --> 00:25:15.640
Utah after threatening to assassinate President Biden
and others. We're also gonna dig a

340
00:25:15.680 --> 00:25:19.720
little deeper into ghost guns and the
ruling from the Supreme Court that came down

341
00:25:19.799 --> 00:25:26.960
this week. That puts rules restricting
and regulating ghost guns back into effect.

342
00:25:26.000 --> 00:25:30.799
While it's fought out in the lower
courts. Right now, let's go back

343
00:25:30.799 --> 00:25:33.599
and check some more stories that are
coming out of the KFI twenty four hour

344
00:25:33.640 --> 00:25:37.359
newsroom. Police are trying to track
down up to forty thieves who ransacked the

345
00:25:37.480 --> 00:25:42.319
Eve Stan Laurent store at the Americana
in Glendale. The thieves rushed inside the

346
00:25:42.319 --> 00:25:47.279
store, loaded up about three hundred
thousand dollars where the merchandise, and took

347
00:25:47.279 --> 00:25:49.759
off in several cars. This guy
says he saw some of the flash mob

348
00:25:49.799 --> 00:25:56.759
burglary go down Tuesday, saw multiple
cars blocking both pedestrians and cars from moving

349
00:25:56.799 --> 00:26:00.880
through the intersection. Glendale Police Sergeant
Victor Jackson says he's got into a short

350
00:26:00.960 --> 00:26:03.799
chase with some of the thieves and
some of that information is going to be

351
00:26:03.880 --> 00:26:06.400
We're going to leave right now for
the investigation, but we do have some

352
00:26:06.400 --> 00:26:11.200
preliminary suspect information. Police are investigating
if a recent attempted burglary at the Gucci

353
00:26:11.279 --> 00:26:15.559
store is related in Glendale Blake Trolley
k if I News. The La County

354
00:26:15.680 --> 00:26:22.440
Sheriff's Crime Lab says it has found
a powerful narcotic used on animals mixed within

355
00:26:22.519 --> 00:26:26.400
the illegal drug supply throughout the county. Officials say xylazine has been detected in

356
00:26:26.480 --> 00:26:33.000
drug seizure samples provided by local law
enforcement. The drug is an animal anesthetic

357
00:26:33.119 --> 00:26:40.519
used by veterinarians. It's not FDA
approved for humans. When ingested, people

358
00:26:40.559 --> 00:26:45.079
can experience dangerously low blood pressure,
a decrease in breathing and heart rates,

359
00:26:45.440 --> 00:26:51.799
large sores, and ulcers. When
mixed with opioids, xylazine can speed up

360
00:26:51.839 --> 00:26:56.160
overdose deaths on the streets known as
trenk. Food delivery robots in Hollywood are

361
00:26:56.160 --> 00:27:02.599
being attacked by thieves and vandals.
The jam Cafes Steve Avalis has fortunately,

362
00:27:02.640 --> 00:27:07.319
restaurants using the service are not responsible
for food loss, whether it be robots

363
00:27:07.440 --> 00:27:11.240
or actual drivers. If we hand
the food over to a driver or a

364
00:27:11.319 --> 00:27:15.480
robot or whatever, as soon as
they take possession of the food, we're

365
00:27:15.519 --> 00:27:21.000
actually we're cleared. The bots are
used by restaurants and delivery services like door

366
00:27:21.079 --> 00:27:26.000
Dash and Grubhub. The company that
owns the bots says the machines have password

367
00:27:26.079 --> 00:27:32.319
protected locks and GPS tracking. The
San Bernardino County Sheriff says he needs help

368
00:27:32.359 --> 00:27:36.079
to manage all the hikers up on
Mount Baldy. Shannondikas says in the last

369
00:27:36.200 --> 00:27:38.359
few years his crews have done more
than one hundred search and rescues at a

370
00:27:38.359 --> 00:27:41.480
cost of more than three million dollars. He says he would like some help

371
00:27:41.519 --> 00:27:45.000
from the US Forest Service, like
a permitting program which could track hikers,

372
00:27:45.000 --> 00:27:49.359
making sure they get marked, maybe
operating volunteers, having more rangers out there

373
00:27:49.400 --> 00:27:53.960
and doing more proactivity, doing a
number of advertisements letting hikers know that you

374
00:27:53.960 --> 00:27:56.799
know Baldy can be treacherous. There
just needs to be more effort, in

375
00:27:56.799 --> 00:28:00.960
my opinions. Says he's lobbying LAWMA
to put pressure on the Forest Service.

Steve Gregory Canopy News. A dam
in southern Norway has partially burst after days

377
00:28:07.319 --> 00:28:11.920
of heavy rain that triggered landslides.
In Flooding officials say the severe weather is

378
00:28:11.960 --> 00:28:17.759
forced evacuations of communities downstream. Officials
in Oslo are now encouraging people to work

379
00:28:17.799 --> 00:28:22.440
from home, adding unnecessary traffic should
be avoided. Thousands of people have also

380
00:28:22.480 --> 00:28:27.400
been left without power. ABC's and
Es Delikatera says Denmark, Sweden, Lithuania,

381
00:28:27.519 --> 00:28:33.240
Finland, Estonia and Latvia are also
being hit by heavy rain and strong

382
00:28:33.279 --> 00:28:40.119
winds. A candidate for president in
Ecuador who was anti cartels and corruption has

383
00:28:40.160 --> 00:28:45.880
been assassinated. Fernando Via van Cco
was killed yesterday at a political rally in

384
00:28:45.920 --> 00:28:52.119
the capital city. Ecuador's president suggested
organized crime was behind the murder, less

385
00:28:52.119 --> 00:28:56.920
than two weeks before the presidential election. Bad hair Day, don't blame your

386
00:28:56.920 --> 00:29:02.519

387
00:29:02.559 --> 00:29:06.759
follical and formation. The patterns of
our hair are influenced by whirls, or

388
00:29:06.799 --> 00:29:10.440
the patches that grow in a circular
pattern around a specific point on your head.

389
00:29:10.759 --> 00:29:14.000
Scientists say the world is determined by
four genetic variants that make up the

390
00:29:14.039 --> 00:29:18.079
number of whorls and the direction of
the whirl. They say unusual patterns or

391
00:29:18.119 --> 00:29:22.319
bad hair we're seen on people with
neurological or genetic development issues. They're also

392
00:29:22.359 --> 00:29:26.759
looking for genes related to other physical
traits, including hair curliness, fingerprints,

393
00:29:26.839 --> 00:29:33.200
eyebrow thickness, and earlobe shape.
Michael Krozer KFIN News, Okay, good

394
00:29:33.240 --> 00:29:37.079
to know that it's not my fault. Burned out cars and smoking piles of

395
00:29:37.200 --> 00:29:42.000
rubble are about all that's left of
much of Lahina on Maui, as wind

396
00:29:42.039 --> 00:29:47.359
whipped fires swept across the island,
killing at least thirty six people, forcing

397
00:29:47.400 --> 00:29:51.599
some residents to jump into the ocean
to escape the flames. A woman has

00:29:51.599 --> 00:29:56.240
been killed when an suv crashed into
the Hammer Toyota car dealership in Mission Hills.

399
00:29:56.279 --> 00:30:00.400
Police think the elderly driver, who
wasn't hurt, hit the gas instead

400
00:30:00.400 --> 00:30:04.519
of the break. The La City
Council is unanimously decided to move forward with

401
00:30:04.559 --> 00:30:11.000
a plan to identify land that could
be transferred to historically marginalized groups within the

402
00:30:11.000 --> 00:30:15.000
city, where just minutes away from
Handle on the news this morning, US

403
00:30:15.079 --> 00:30:22.119
Special Council got a search warrant and
got access to Trump's Twitter account. Okay,

404
00:30:22.200 --> 00:30:27.279
did you uh you know how everybody's
going solar now? Well, Six

405
00:30:27.319 --> 00:30:33.200
Flags Magic Mountain has plans to go
solar. The park is going to be

406
00:30:33.599 --> 00:30:38.279
they say, entirely powered by clean
energy. Kind of a it's a is

407
00:30:38.359 --> 00:30:44.079
a this is a big project like
Disneyland recycles food scraps, Universal Studios has

408
00:30:44.079 --> 00:30:47.400
a couple of trams, but six
Flags they're going to go all solars.

409
00:30:47.400 --> 00:30:53.599
So the plan right now is to
build a solar array in Magic Mountain's main

410
00:30:53.720 --> 00:31:00.079
parking lot that, when it's done, will generate enough electricity to run the

411
00:31:00.160 --> 00:31:04.519
whole park, all two hundred and
sixty acres of it. Six Flags is

412
00:31:04.759 --> 00:31:11.640
saying it's the largest commercial renewable energy
project of its kind. Governor Newsom obviously

413
00:31:11.799 --> 00:31:14.920
very happy about it. He says, six Flags commitment to clean energies the

414
00:31:14.960 --> 00:31:18.960
type of work that will power the
future. And if you're wondering if the

415
00:31:18.039 --> 00:31:22.720
rides are going to keep going on
cloudy days when the sun isn't shining,

416
00:31:22.119 --> 00:31:26.440
they're saying that it shouldn't be a
problem. The solar power being harvested at

417
00:31:26.440 --> 00:31:30.400
Magic Mountain is going to be stored
in these huge batteries that are expected to

418
00:31:30.400 --> 00:31:36.720
hold enough juice to keep the coasters
rolling through June Gloom and beyond. It's

419
00:31:36.759 --> 00:31:41.759
pretty ambitious. Go six Flags Go. Let's say good morning now to ABC

420
00:31:41.960 --> 00:31:47.559
Crime and Terrorism analyst Brad Garrett.
Good morning, Brad, Good morning Amy.

421
00:31:47.680 --> 00:31:48.839
I know last time we talked,
we didn't really get a chance to

422
00:31:48.960 --> 00:31:52.359
chit chat, but Brad and I
hosted a show one day. He was

423
00:31:52.440 --> 00:31:56.920
filling in and so Robin had me
come in and sit with him. And

424
00:31:56.160 --> 00:32:00.359
Brad, if you don't know him, has such great inside and so much

425
00:32:00.400 --> 00:32:05.359
wisdom in that brain about crime and
terrorism. So today we're going to talk

426
00:32:05.480 --> 00:32:09.200
about the guy who was shot and
killed when the FBI attempted to serve a

427
00:32:09.279 --> 00:32:14.960
search warrant to him in Provo,
Utah. What was the warrant for Brad

428
00:32:15.079 --> 00:32:21.519
and what happened? Okay, so
the FBI got both a search and arrest

429
00:32:21.640 --> 00:32:27.319
warrant for this guy because he had
threatened to kill President Biden. Now an

430
00:32:27.359 --> 00:32:31.480
important point, obviously is that President
Biden is in Utah right now, So

431
00:32:31.519 --> 00:32:37.599
I assume they worked extra fast to
put this together to make sure that they

432
00:32:37.599 --> 00:32:39.880
could control this guy so he couldn't
get anywhere near the president. But the

433
00:32:39.920 --> 00:32:45.839
point being, he made all these
threats against the president, against the elected

434
00:32:45.880 --> 00:32:52.599
district Attorney Alvan Bragg in Manhattan,
against Latitia Jays, the Attorney General of

435
00:32:52.680 --> 00:32:58.240
New York. Now, this list
I'm assembling, obviously are folks that in

436
00:32:58.279 --> 00:33:05.519
the last two case charged President Trump
either civilly or criminally, and a lot

437
00:33:05.559 --> 00:33:09.440
of these folks that end up trying
to commit violence against people that they believe

438
00:33:09.480 --> 00:33:16.319
have quote unquote wronged Former President Trump
are getting more and more unhinged as each

439
00:33:16.400 --> 00:33:22.319
indictment falls, and as you well
knowing, he may get indicted the former

440
00:33:22.359 --> 00:33:27.680
president in Georgia this month, which
would be four than separate jurisdictions that have

441
00:33:27.759 --> 00:33:31.680
charged him. So expect to see
versions of this guy continue to pop up.

442
00:33:32.720 --> 00:33:40.519
So I'm just curious, what is
it that they're so adamant that Trump

443
00:33:40.680 --> 00:33:45.079
is their guy, that they that
the feelings just escalating. They get more

444
00:33:45.119 --> 00:33:49.200
and more frustrated, and it's just
going to the point where they're openly making

445
00:33:49.279 --> 00:33:53.839
threats. So you have to go
to the whole conspiracy theory mindset. Okay,

446
00:33:54.359 --> 00:34:00.680
people who fallen into these conspiracies like
the the election was stolen and they

447
00:34:00.759 --> 00:34:06.000
get President Trump to tell them every
twelve minutes that that's the case. So

448
00:34:06.079 --> 00:34:14.159
you have a well known, powerful
person making statements that holds a lot of

449
00:34:14.199 --> 00:34:17.440
weight with some people. Now you
have to be sort of oriented a certain

450
00:34:17.480 --> 00:34:24.360
way of being disagreeable, not particularly
a person who likes to think through and

451
00:34:24.440 --> 00:34:30.559
logically figure out. You're just mad
and maybe you're in a disadvantaged situation.

452
00:34:30.639 --> 00:34:32.440
Maybe you'll live in a rust belt, you haven't had a job, you've

453
00:34:32.480 --> 00:34:36.960
had troubled relationships, because typically these
people do. In other words, their

454
00:34:36.960 --> 00:34:39.119
life is very negative and they become
more and more angry. They don't have

455
00:34:39.159 --> 00:34:45.079
the tools to deal with the anger, so they latch onto these conspiracy theories

456
00:34:45.079 --> 00:34:47.400
and they see, sort of,
we can solve this. This is right

457
00:34:47.440 --> 00:34:52.400
and wrong. It's wrong the president
Trump's not the president, and it's right

458
00:34:52.440 --> 00:34:58.360
that he should be, and so
it's a resolution or it solves a problem

459
00:34:58.440 --> 00:35:02.039
for them to fall into these eras
theories, and some of them, not

460
00:35:02.159 --> 00:35:05.960
most of them, but some of
them, like this guy, take it

461
00:35:06.000 --> 00:35:09.880
to the next level. And my
concern is there's going to be more versions

462
00:35:09.920 --> 00:35:15.880
of this guy as we move into
twenty twenty four. And is the FBI

463
00:35:15.960 --> 00:35:19.000
looking at these kind of threats all
the time? I mean, because this

464
00:35:19.039 --> 00:35:22.000
guy was posting stuff on social media, right, right, Yeah, he

465
00:35:22.119 --> 00:35:28.239
was not being subtled at all.
They do, the Secret Service obviously do

466
00:35:28.320 --> 00:35:32.880
when it comes to the president.
The problem is that a vast majority of

467
00:35:32.920 --> 00:35:38.840
these people who make these outrageous threats
have no intention in carrying them out.

468
00:35:38.920 --> 00:35:45.679
They're just basically verbalizing. So I'm
going to guess again that the FBI had

469
00:35:45.719 --> 00:35:50.559
more information other than he had just
made idle threats. Was he actually planning

470
00:35:50.719 --> 00:35:53.800
to find a president in Utah for
example? I don't know that, but

471
00:35:54.159 --> 00:36:00.280
I'm suggesting it's going to be something
more than just an idle threat to have

472
00:36:00.360 --> 00:36:02.639
gotten them to get a search warrant
and an arrest warrant for this guy.

473
00:36:04.239 --> 00:36:07.519
So what's the FBI looking for that
would differentiate him from someone else who's just

474
00:36:07.599 --> 00:36:12.880
kind of spouting off? Operational?
In other words, they actually, first

475
00:36:12.920 --> 00:36:15.480
of all, have the ways.
It means, let's say that they've been

476
00:36:15.519 --> 00:36:20.400
able to determine that he's got a
cache of R fifteens other type of weapons.

477
00:36:21.599 --> 00:36:23.639
That's one thing, and clearly,
if he has them legally, that's

478
00:36:23.800 --> 00:36:28.559
his right to have them. But
the point being, did was he planning

479
00:36:28.639 --> 00:36:31.119
this? Is he talking? Are
their sources involved in this case? Did

480
00:36:31.119 --> 00:36:38.039
he see other things online that would
certainly go to I'm going to go do

481
00:36:38.119 --> 00:36:40.800
this and this is how I'm going
to do it kind of thing? So

482
00:36:42.159 --> 00:36:45.239
we'll see if that comes out at
some point. Yeah, the good news

483
00:36:45.280 --> 00:36:49.159
is they stopped him, correct,
But it's also, like you said,

484
00:36:49.320 --> 00:36:52.960
it's a little bit scary. They
have to follow it kind of right up

485
00:36:52.000 --> 00:36:58.320
to the edge. Because if they
do, because they can't. They can't

486
00:36:58.400 --> 00:37:00.480
interact too early because they don't know
if it's real. But if you wait

487
00:37:00.519 --> 00:37:06.199
too long, like you said,
the President's in Utah today, it's all

488
00:37:06.239 --> 00:37:10.199
about timing, and I will tell
you. And there have been cases even

489
00:37:10.239 --> 00:37:15.440
in mass shooters, where the police
have the interviewed the person weeks, months,

490
00:37:15.599 --> 00:37:21.719
days before they commit a mass shooting
because they've gotten information that the person

491
00:37:21.760 --> 00:37:23.920
may will want to commit a mass
shooting, but they don't have enough information

492
00:37:23.960 --> 00:37:28.400
to charge them or evidence to charge
them, and so as a result,

493
00:37:29.400 --> 00:37:34.719
you know, the person then finishes
the operational side and goes and commits the

494
00:37:34.719 --> 00:37:37.280
act. These folks fall into the
same category. If you don't know about

495
00:37:37.360 --> 00:37:42.840
them, that's one thing, but
to know about them when they're actually going

496
00:37:42.920 --> 00:37:45.320
to take action. I mean,
the First Amendment gives you a lot of

497
00:37:45.400 --> 00:37:51.039
league away one hate speech, and
it's really tricky, and that's why people

498
00:37:51.079 --> 00:37:55.199
slipped through. This guy could have
slipped through. And my fear is as

499
00:37:55.280 --> 00:38:00.079
the numbers grow of these type of
guys, we're going to have a lot

500
00:38:00.119 --> 00:38:05.800
on our hands as we get into
the twenty twenty four presidential election. Okay,

501
00:38:06.079 --> 00:38:07.360
all right, let's real quick with
a couple of minutes that we have

502
00:38:07.480 --> 00:38:13.400
left shift over to ghost guns.
The Supreme Court ruling from this week allows

503
00:38:13.440 --> 00:38:16.920
for rules for ghost guns passed by
the Biden administration in twenty twenty two to

504
00:38:17.119 --> 00:38:24.079
be enforced while it gets slugged out
in the lower courts. So what's what's

505
00:38:24.119 --> 00:38:28.840
the consensus on this as far as
this is a good thing while it's happening,

506
00:38:28.880 --> 00:38:30.400
is it going to become permanent or
is it just too soon to tell?

507
00:38:31.559 --> 00:38:35.360
Too soon to tell? I mean, you know, ghost guns obviously

508
00:38:35.400 --> 00:38:37.679
have no serial number, you don't
have a background check. All you need

509
00:38:37.719 --> 00:38:42.599
is a credit card or debit card
order through the mail comes to you.

510
00:38:42.599 --> 00:38:46.760
You could be the baddest, most
violent felon in the world and you could

511
00:38:46.840 --> 00:38:52.039
order it because there's no control at
f changed the definition of firearms, saying

512
00:38:52.119 --> 00:38:57.679
that these unassembled firearms which are shipped
to you and under an hour you've can

513
00:38:57.760 --> 00:39:02.679
put them together, is as a
firearm, and gun rights folks challenged them.

514
00:39:02.679 --> 00:39:07.039
They got to judge in Texas to
say, yeah, that's right,

515
00:39:07.039 --> 00:39:10.400
they can't change their regulation. So
he blocked them. Well, the Spreme

516
00:39:10.480 --> 00:39:15.960
Court, to your point, unblocked
at least temporarily as it goes to the

517
00:39:15.000 --> 00:39:20.880
system. It's extremely important that these
weapons be regulated. Every other weapon.

518
00:39:20.920 --> 00:39:23.599
If you and I go to a
gun dealer in Los Angeles, we go

519
00:39:23.679 --> 00:39:27.559
through a background check, we get
a weapon with a serial number, we

520
00:39:27.599 --> 00:39:30.800
know where it came from. You
can trace it. It can't trace ghost

521
00:39:30.800 --> 00:39:34.760
guns. And who's making ghost guns? I mean, is it people who

522
00:39:34.800 --> 00:39:38.719
typically lawfully purchase weapons who are just
trying something new, or is it bad

523
00:39:38.760 --> 00:39:43.320
guys who can't buy them. I
think it's I think it's both. Because

524
00:39:43.360 --> 00:39:46.679
you don't know the numbers because there's
no database. I mean, obviously the

525
00:39:46.760 --> 00:39:52.760
folks that produced these ghost guns would
know how many guns they've sold. But

526
00:39:52.039 --> 00:39:58.960
because there's no regulation, there's no
regulator like ATF or oversight, there's no

527
00:39:59.000 --> 00:40:01.679
background check, you have no idea. I'm going to guess that the majority

528
00:40:01.719 --> 00:40:06.360
of people who buy ghost guns aren't
committing crime. They just don't want people

529
00:40:06.400 --> 00:40:08.159
to know they have firearms, so
they don't want law enforcement to know they

530
00:40:08.199 --> 00:40:15.400
have again going back to your conspiracy
theory way of thinking. But it's I

531
00:40:15.400 --> 00:40:21.119
mean, in California, there's study
in California that said that your law enforcement

532
00:40:21.400 --> 00:40:27.719
twenty five to fifty percent of the
weapons they seize or find our ghost guns.

533
00:40:27.159 --> 00:40:30.679
That's that's scary that number. Yeah
all right, ABC's Brad Garrett.

534
00:40:30.719 --> 00:40:34.039
Thanks for spending some time with us
today. Hope we can do it again
