It's not even full 6 00:00:43.000 --> 00:00:45.719 yet. I was driving in and the moon is it looked like it was 7 00:00:45.840 --> 00:00:49.159 rising. I don't know if it's rising or falling, but so cool. 8 00:00:49.240 --> 00:00:52.240 And we have a rare blue moon coming up at the end of the month. 9 00:00:52.719 --> 00:00:56.600 It's gonna be another hot one. God, I was hot yesterday and 10 00:00:56.640 --> 00:01:00.840 I was driving between the LA area and the Alley and there's this noticeable, 11 00:01:00.920 --> 00:01:07.040 like ten or fifteen degree difference. Got another hot one coming today before it 12 00:01:07.079 --> 00:01:11.079 cools down. And the other thing I noticed when I was driving around yesterday 13 00:01:11.120 --> 00:01:12.439 is a lot of people are out walking their dogs, which is lovely, 14 00:01:14.000 --> 00:01:18.239 but when it's one hundred and ten, the ground is like even hotter, 15 00:01:18.319 --> 00:01:23.719 especially when you're walking across the asphalt, and nobody had booties on. So 16 00:01:23.319 --> 00:01:27.519 I'm not a luxury kind of person, but remember that your dogs don't have 17 00:01:27.599 --> 00:01:32.680 shoes on when you're crossing the street and it's one hundred and ten degrees outside. 18 00:01:33.640 --> 00:01:37.239 Come on people, Okay, I'm a coffee, got your coffee ready 19 00:01:37.280 --> 00:01:42.040 to go? It's Tuesday. Here's what's ahead on wake up call. Idalia 20 00:01:42.439 --> 00:01:46.519 has become a Category one hurricane. Is it motors toward Florida. Forecasters say 21 00:01:46.519 --> 00:01:51.159 the storm's going to continue to gain strength and will be a dangerous major hurricane 22 00:01:51.159 --> 00:01:56.079 when it makes landfall Wednesday. Attorney General Rob Bonte has sued the Chino School 23 00:01:56.120 --> 00:02:00.599 District over its new rule requiring staff to tell parents if they're students identify as 24 00:02:00.599 --> 00:02:07.039 transgender. Eminem is telling Republican presidential candidate Vivek Ramaswamy to stop singing his songs 25 00:02:07.120 --> 00:02:14.280 after Ramaswamy wrapped an Eminem's song on stage at the Iowa State Fair. Let's 26 00:02:14.280 --> 00:02:16.240 get started with some of the stories coming out of the KFI twenty four hour 27 00:02:16.319 --> 00:02:22.639 newsroom. California Attorney General Rob Bontas filed a lawsuit against the Chino Valley School 28 00:02:22.680 --> 00:02:28.280 District over its new policy to notify parents of a student's gender identity or sexual 29 00:02:28.319 --> 00:02:34.919 orientation. Bontas is the policy is dangerous for kids. That's not Banta, 30 00:02:35.800 --> 00:02:42.639 This is Bonta. Transgender and gender non conforming students already face disproportionate levels of 31 00:02:42.680 --> 00:02:47.879 abuse and harassment and are at great risk of suicide and serious mental health issues. 32 00:02:49.080 --> 00:02:53.639 The district says its policy also requires law enforcement to be notified if a 33 00:02:53.680 --> 00:02:58.719 student feels threatened by a parent because of their gender identity or sexual orientation. 34 00:02:59.319 --> 00:03:04.639 The community of Tribuco Canyon has prayed and rallied together following a mass shooting that 35 00:03:04.840 --> 00:03:07.639 killed four and hurt six others. We would like to thank everyone for all 36 00:03:07.680 --> 00:03:13.680 your love support of prayers. Cook's Corner general manager Ronda Polomari posted condolences for 37 00:03:13.719 --> 00:03:17.319 everyone involved who were here Wednesday, August twenty third for the most horrific act 38 00:03:17.400 --> 00:03:22.240 by one man who has changed the lives of so many. Saddleback Church Pastor 39 00:03:22.280 --> 00:03:25.039 Stacey Wood named the people lost when hundred showed up over the weekend for a 40 00:03:25.039 --> 00:03:30.800 prayer vigil.

It's been pushback to October thirtieth so the record's requests and other defense 46 00:03:53.919 --> 00:03:58.719 matters can be resolved. The X cop is charged with voluntary manslaughter and assault 47 00:03:58.960 --> 00:04:03.199 in the shooting in twenty nineteen. Federal prosecutors say they think former La City 48 00:04:03.199 --> 00:04:08.639 Councilman Mark Ridley Thomas will serve the majority of his three year prison sentence for 49 00:04:08.759 --> 00:04:13.039 corruption. Ridley Thomas has been given a November thirteenth surrender date. He was 50 00:04:13.080 --> 00:04:15.920 convicted earlier this year of a bribery scheme between him and the former dean of 51 00:04:16.000 --> 00:04:20.560 USC's School of Social Work. US attorney Martinez Strada says the scheme was not 52 00:04:20.639 --> 00:04:27.160 a victimless crime. We the people, the constituents, the community that the 53 00:04:27.199 --> 00:04:30.959 defendant was elected to serve, deserve much better. Prosecutors say. From twenty 54 00:04:31.000 --> 00:04:36.600 seventeen to twenty eighteen, Ridley Thomas supported contracts between USC and the county in 55 00:04:36.680 --> 00:04:41.800 exchange for benefits for his son in downtown La Blake trolley. K if I 56 00:04:41.879 --> 00:04:47.680 News, a European airline is trying only adult zones on flights between Amsterdam and 57 00:04:47.879 --> 00:04:54.759 Kiasaw starting in November. The zones will be four passengers sixteen and older only. 58 00:04:55.240 --> 00:05:00.399 There will be walls and curtains separating the only adult zone from the rest 59 00:05:00.399 --> 00:05:02.920 of the plane. It's five zero six on your wake up call. Time 60 00:05:02.959 --> 00:05:09.920 to say good morning to Stephen Portnoy, ABC News National correspondent. So, 61 00:05:10.160 --> 00:05:13.519 Stephen, we got two big dates were set yesterday. What are they? 62 00:05:14.360 --> 00:05:16.920 Well, the one big date was set. It's March fourth. That's the 63 00:05:17.000 --> 00:05:23.240 date for jury selection and the trial here in Washington, DC. That's the 64 00:05:23.360 --> 00:05:28.079 January sixth case brought by Jack Smith, a special council, and it's been 65 00:05:28.160 --> 00:05:32.800 set. And that's the big news here. Okay, So jury selection starts 66 00:05:32.839 --> 00:05:35.959 that date, or the trial is slated to start that day. Well, 67 00:05:36.000 --> 00:05:41.519 that is the same thing, and that's the day that jury selection will begin. 68 00:05:41.600 --> 00:05:45.519 That's essentially the trial start date. Okay. So then just to refresh 69 00:05:45.560 --> 00:05:50.560 everyone's memory, remind us that this date is different than what the prosecution want 70 00:05:50.639 --> 00:05:56.360 and what Trump lawyers wanted. You're right, the prosecution wanted the trial to 71 00:05:56.399 --> 00:06:00.079 start on January second of next year. The defense team the trial to start 72 00:06:00.120 --> 00:06:04.560 April of twenty twenty six, two and a half years from now. The 73 00:06:04.639 --> 00:06:09.680 judge said that she found neither date acceptable, that the defense needed more than 74 00:06:09.720 --> 00:06:13.879 four months to prepare, but she said two years was too much time, 75 00:06:14.279 --> 00:06:16.600 and she settled on March fourth. Now, what's interesting is March fourth happens 76 00:06:16.639 --> 00:06:21.399 to be the day before the Super Tuesday primaries in more than a dozen states, 77 00:06:21.480 --> 00:06:28.480 including California. Why would they set the date for Super Tuesday or the 78 00:06:28.560 --> 00:06:32.879 day before Super Tuesday. Why did the judge choose March fourth. Yeah, 79 00:06:32.920 --> 00:06:38.439 she did not fully explain herself, except to say that she conferred with the 80 00:06:38.560 --> 00:06:42.680 judge who's overseeing another trial, and that's in New York. That's the case 81 00:06:42.720 --> 00:06:46.759 that starts March twenty five, three weeks after the case that will begin here 82 00:06:46.800 --> 00:06:50.319 in Washington, DC, she says. Judge Chutkin here in Washington says she 83 00:06:50.519 --> 00:06:56.519 called Judge Mars Shawn in New York and spoke with him about the fact that 84 00:06:56.560 --> 00:07:00.560 he has another pending matter involving the former president will begin in later March. 85 00:07:01.240 --> 00:07:06.199 That's the only explanation that Judge Chutkin gave except to say that there is a 86 00:07:06.199 --> 00:07:12.040 societal interest in a speedy trial. But she did say that she found four 87 00:07:12.079 --> 00:07:15.439 months unacceptable, two and a half years unacceptable. She decided six months from 88 00:07:15.439 --> 00:07:18.560 now is a good time to start the trial. Okay, that's interesting that 89 00:07:18.600 --> 00:07:24.759 they're so close together, so they're expecting a relatively short trial, or technically 90 00:07:24.759 --> 00:07:27.720 could two trials be going on at the same time. Well, that's an 91 00:07:27.759 --> 00:07:32.519 interesting question. Look, you know, the former president is going to have 92 00:07:32.600 --> 00:07:36.600 to be expected to show up to sit before a jury so that the jury 93 00:07:36.639 --> 00:07:42.279 can see the defendant. But the former president does not necessarily have to attend 94 00:07:42.680 --> 00:07:46.879 every session of the trial. In fact, you know, there's some experts 95 00:07:46.879 --> 00:07:50.160 who believe that he might not have to attend much at all. But maybe 96 00:07:50.199 --> 00:07:54.920 he'll want to. I really don't know, and it depends perhaps on the 97 00:07:55.000 --> 00:08:01.079 judge and the jurisdiction. But one thing that Judge Chutkin did say yesterday is 98 00:08:01.160 --> 00:08:05.720 that regardless of his professional obligations, not the legal obligations, for professional obligations, 99 00:08:05.439 --> 00:08:09.399 his need to run for office and appear in various places and try to 100 00:08:09.439 --> 00:08:13.800 win the delegates of California and other states, they'll have to set all that 101 00:08:13.879 --> 00:08:18.600 aside that as a defendant in her courtroom, he's going to have to make 102 00:08:18.600 --> 00:08:22.639 it work, okay. And can the lawyers say that's election interference because it's 103 00:08:22.680 --> 00:08:28.879 preventing him from campaigning. The lawyers can say whatever they want. The former 104 00:08:28.920 --> 00:08:33.440 president can say whatever he wants. But the idea that it's election interference, 105 00:08:33.480 --> 00:08:37.879 that's not an argument the lawyers are going to make inside a courtroom with any 106 00:08:37.919 --> 00:08:41.360 great success. Okay. And then down in Georgia, the date was set 107 00:08:41.399 --> 00:08:46.639 for the arraignment. Yes, so the arraignment will take place a week from 108 00:08:46.679 --> 00:08:50.879 tomorrow. But you know, at least one of the defendants has already waived 109 00:08:50.879 --> 00:08:54.720 the right to an arraignment and therefore entering a not guilty plea on paper, 110 00:08:56.320 --> 00:09:01.240 these it's a very perfunctory thing, stacked fifteen minutes apart, all nineteen co 111 00:09:01.320 --> 00:09:05.600 defendants, the former presidents supposed to go first, nine thirty in the morning. 112 00:09:05.639 --> 00:09:09.679 Could happen, virtually, could be waived. We'll see what happens. 113 00:09:09.799 --> 00:09:11.440 Okay, Gonna be a busy day on September six. Thanks so much for 114 00:09:11.440 --> 00:09:15.720 your time, Stephen Portnoy. Let's get back to some of the stories coming 115 00:09:15.720 --> 00:09:18.440 out of the KFI twenty four Hour newsroom. A woman has been awarded nearly 116 00:09:18.480 --> 00:09:22.840 twenty four million dollars in damages in connection with the shooting death of her son 117 00:09:22.879 --> 00:09:28.600 by LAPD officers in Kanoga Park in twenty seventeen. Navy veteran Jesse Murillo was 118 00:09:28.639 --> 00:09:33.919 holding a metal bar that the officers apparently thought was a machette. Family attorney 119 00:09:33.080 --> 00:09:39.440 Dale Gallipos's body cambridge footage showed the shooting was not justified. Number one, 120 00:09:39.480 --> 00:09:43.000 he was never facing the officers during any of the shots. Number two, 121 00:09:43.080 --> 00:09:46.440 he was running away from the officers when he was shot, and number three, 122 00:09:46.519 --> 00:09:50.639 the fatal shot occurred after he already went to the ground. Daily Kenny 123 00:09:50.720 --> 00:09:56.200 DA's office reviewed the shooting in twenty twenty and decided not to file charges against 124 00:09:56.240 --> 00:10:00.279 the officers, saying at the time the decision to open fire was lea ly 125 00:10:00.440 --> 00:10:05.759 justified. Prosecutors in LA say they want to retry and x ucla campus Gannet 126 00:10:05.840 --> 00:10:11.279 collegist who's already serving eleven years in prison for sexual assault related charges. A 127 00:10:11.399 --> 00:10:15.279 judge set a hearing for October twenty fifth in Burbank. The doctor was found 128 00:10:15.279 --> 00:10:20.159 guilty last year of sexual battery by fraud and sexual penetration of an unconscious person 129 00:10:20.440 --> 00:10:24.879 involving former patients. At one time, the former doctor was reportedly the highest 130 00:10:24.919 --> 00:10:30.960 paid physician in the UC system and treated about six thousand patients. More than 131 00:10:31.039 --> 00:10:43.159 five hundred lawsuits were filed against him and UCLA. Moving out young wealthy people 132 00:10:43.200 --> 00:10:48.120 who once lived in California moving out the other states. The study from smart 133 00:10:48.159 --> 00:10:52.799 Assets says they've gone to states like Florida and Texas. The study found California, 134 00:10:52.919 --> 00:10:56.559 New York, and Illinois lost the most people between the ages of twenty 135 00:10:56.600 --> 00:11:01.240 six to thirty five and with at least two hundred thousand dollars a year salaries. 136 00:11:01.679 --> 00:11:07.399 About forty five hundred people left California, but about five thousand people moved 137 00:11:07.440 --> 00:11:11.679 in. Data came from the IRS and the twenty twenty one tax year. 138 00:11:11.559 --> 00:11:16.960 Disneyland is changing its hotel policies starting January twentieth. Guests staying and the properties 139 00:11:16.960 --> 00:11:20.840 will no longer automatically get early entry into Disneyland and California Adventure, instead guesting 140 00:11:20.879 --> 00:11:26.759 at one of the Disneyland hotels, and those who have valid park admission and 141 00:11:26.799 --> 00:11:31.879 reservations can enter one of the parks thirty minutes before the regular Park opening time. 142 00:11:31.559 --> 00:11:35.080 As you know, we lost a TV legend. Bob Barker died over 143 00:11:35.120 --> 00:11:41.759 the weekend. He's not having a funeral, His longtime publicist says, at 144 00:11:41.840 --> 00:11:45.720 Bob's request, there will not be a funeral or a memorial service. He 145 00:11:45.759 --> 00:11:48.000 wants it to be a more private thing. Bombark is going to be laid 146 00:11:48.000 --> 00:11:52.120 to rest next to his wife, Dorothy Joe Barker. She died in nineteen 147 00:11:52.159 --> 00:11:56.240 eighty one. They'll be their final resting pace. Place is at Forest Lawn 148 00:11:56.679 --> 00:12:01.879 in the Hollywood Hills. Okay, so this is nothing new. Politicians use 149 00:12:01.960 --> 00:12:07.559 walk up music at campaign rallies to fire up the crowd, but the fake 150 00:12:07.720 --> 00:12:11.039 Rama Swammy took it to a whole new level. You might remember he had 151 00:12:11.200 --> 00:12:15.720 he did a video. It went viral when he wrapped Eminem's Lose Yourself at 152 00:12:15.720 --> 00:12:35.480 the Iowa State Fair down the whole crowd. Everybody don't can Well, apparently 153 00:12:35.480 --> 00:12:41.080 Eminem's not very happy about it. He's told him basically stopped singing my songs, 154 00:12:41.799 --> 00:12:48.960 and he's sent a letter. BMI sent a letter to Rama Swammy's campaign 155 00:12:48.039 --> 00:12:54.360 lawyer that says Eminem's works are no longer part of a music licensing agreement and 156 00:12:54.440 --> 00:12:58.399 that Eminem requested that. Now we mentioned that this was not the first time, 157 00:12:58.559 --> 00:13:03.399 but this has happened that politicians used the walk up music all the time. 158 00:13:03.840 --> 00:13:09.039 Well Adele wanted Donald Trump to stop using her songs because he was using 159 00:13:09.320 --> 00:13:15.919 Rolling in the Deep and Skyfall at political rallies. In twenty six, Trump 160 00:13:16.039 --> 00:13:22.759 was using dream On at his political rallies. Aerosmith didn't like that. Let's 161 00:13:22.759 --> 00:13:26.320 see the Trump campaign used Here Comes the Sun. George Harrison's estate did not 162 00:13:26.480 --> 00:13:31.519 like that, so the Beatles said no, thank you. A lot of 163 00:13:31.559 --> 00:13:35.639 these are apparently for Trump. Bruce Springsteen didn't want him using Born in the 164 00:13:35.759 --> 00:13:41.720 USA at his rallies. Elton John was not happy that Trump was using Rocketman 165 00:13:41.799 --> 00:13:50.000 and Tiny Dancer at political rallies. Farrell opposed Trump playing the song Happy at 166 00:13:50.080 --> 00:13:54.480 rallies. Prince Well he didn't want or the estate of Prince didn't want Trump 167 00:13:54.559 --> 00:14:01.159 using Purple Rain, and then Rihanna threatened legal action against Trump for unauthorized use 168 00:14:01.200 --> 00:14:03.799 of her don't stop the music rallies. But he's not the only one. 169 00:14:05.679 --> 00:14:09.720 Mitt Romney, Paul Ryan, and Donald Trump used Twisted Sisters. We're not 170 00:14:09.759 --> 00:14:13.600 going to take it. They didn't like that the Foo Fighters My Hero was 171 00:14:13.399 --> 00:14:18.679 used by John McCain. He said, knock it off. Sarah Palin was 172 00:14:18.799 --> 00:14:24.440 using Barracuda as walk up music. Heart wasn't happy about that then. I 173 00:14:24.480 --> 00:14:30.080 think the only one where they said don't use it and it was targeted at 174 00:14:30.080 --> 00:14:37.440 a Democratic candidate was in twenty sixteen when Hillary Clinton used Bikini Kills Rebel Girl 175 00:14:37.679 --> 00:14:43.159 in an ad and the drummer for Bikini Kill had the song removed from the 176 00:14:43.200 --> 00:14:48.080 adge because she was supporting Bernie Sanders. Seems like mostly Republicans. They don't 177 00:14:48.080 --> 00:14:52.000 like the Republicans using the cool music. Here's what we're following in the KFI 178 00:14:52.039 --> 00:14:56.279 twenty four hour newsroom. The Stan Fernando, San Gabriel, and southwestern Ventura 179 00:14:56.360 --> 00:15:01.519 County valleys, along with San Bernardino overside Orange in San Diego Counties, remain 180 00:15:01.679 --> 00:15:05.120 under an excessive heat warning through at least eight o'clock tonight, but temperature is 181 00:15:05.159 --> 00:15:11.240 expected to get as high as one oho eight. The Department of Transportation has 182 00:15:11.320 --> 00:15:13.840 hit American airlines with over four million dollars in fines. That's the largest fine 183 00:15:13.919 --> 00:15:18.360 ever for keeping passengers waiting on the tarmac. The fine is tied to forty 184 00:15:18.399 --> 00:15:22.399 three flights that affected more than fifty eight hundred passengers. Between twenty eighteen to 185 00:15:22.440 --> 00:15:28.120 twenty twenty one, thousands of people line the streets of downtown El Segundo to 186 00:15:28.240 --> 00:15:33.960 greet the Little League World Series champions. The team won the title on Sunday, 187 00:15:33.399 --> 00:15:37.200 and let the celebrations continue. The team's going to be honored tonight at 188 00:15:37.360 --> 00:15:41.559 Dodger Stadium. Let's say good morning to the host of How To Money on 189 00:15:41.639 --> 00:15:46.480 KFI, Joel lars Guard. Good morning, Joel, morning. Amy. 190 00:15:46.759 --> 00:15:52.679 So Zillo Home Loans is offering a one percent down payment mortgage. Yeah calls 191 00:15:54.159 --> 00:15:58.240 that sounds right, right. I mean, if you're the person buying the 192 00:15:58.320 --> 00:16:00.799 home and someone says you don't have to bring nearly as much money to the 193 00:16:00.799 --> 00:16:04.519 table, You're like, Wooho, that just became so much easier for me 194 00:16:04.600 --> 00:16:07.080 to save up for the house, right, I don't have to save up 195 00:16:07.080 --> 00:16:11.279 in nearly the same nearly the same amount of down payment because now Zillo is 196 00:16:11.320 --> 00:16:15.879 saying, ah, just one percent, that's enough. And right now this 197 00:16:15.960 --> 00:16:19.120 is only being offered in Arizona to our neighbors over there, But this is 198 00:16:19.159 --> 00:16:25.200 something that could become more widespread and it's worrisome to me because the thing is 199 00:16:25.440 --> 00:16:27.559 there's multiple there's multiple problems with this. One. If you don't have to 200 00:16:27.600 --> 00:16:30.960 save up as much, are you actually financially prepared to buy that house? 201 00:16:32.240 --> 00:16:34.559 And then second, especially with rising rates, well, the less you put 202 00:16:34.559 --> 00:16:38.519 down on the home means the more you're financing at a higher rate, which 203 00:16:38.559 --> 00:16:44.240 means a much higher payment. And aren't interest rates up? But like seven 204 00:16:44.279 --> 00:16:48.519 point two percent? Now, oh, did we just lose Joel. Let's 205 00:16:48.519 --> 00:16:52.240 see if we can get him back. I think the other thing that it 206 00:16:52.279 --> 00:16:56.159 affects two is the PIMA, the Homeowner's insurance. If you put less than 207 00:16:56.200 --> 00:17:03.200 twenty percent down, then you have to have that insurance, which increases your 208 00:17:03.200 --> 00:17:07.279 payment even more. So you take the seven point two percent that you're financing. 209 00:17:07.279 --> 00:17:11.359 When you're financing more, you take the twenty percent of the PIMA insurance. 210 00:17:11.359 --> 00:17:15.720 It's a couple hundred dollars a month, and then you take that The 211 00:17:15.759 --> 00:17:21.359 medium price in California is eight hundred and thirty thousand dollars or something crazy, 212 00:17:21.720 --> 00:17:26.720 So even with one percent down, I guess it's only eighty three hundred dollars. 213 00:17:26.720 --> 00:17:30.400 But yeah, he makes a good point. Can you really afford it 214 00:17:30.440 --> 00:17:34.680 if you only can afford to put eighty three hundred dollars down. If we 215 00:17:34.720 --> 00:17:38.000 get him back, we're going to be asking him too about how people are 216 00:17:38.079 --> 00:17:42.720 foregoing homeowners insurance. And I can tell you that one of the things that 217 00:17:44.359 --> 00:17:48.759 it's fine getting harder and harder to find homeowners insurance here in California because a 218 00:17:48.759 --> 00:17:53.160 lot of companies like Farmers and All State and several others have pulled out of 219 00:17:53.200 --> 00:18:00.319 the California market. But I think having home insurance is a necessity because if 220 00:18:00.359 --> 00:18:04.079 something really goes wrong, you're stuck with the bill. And I know that 221 00:18:04.160 --> 00:18:10.519 people who have earthquake insurance you still have that super high deductible and some people 222 00:18:10.559 --> 00:18:17.079 can't get earthquake insurance in certain areas because of the earthquake wrist. But I 223 00:18:17.079 --> 00:18:19.200 would say get that insurance if you can get it, because when you need 224 00:18:19.200 --> 00:18:23.960 it, it's gonna save your butt. Since we year are not getting Joel 225 00:18:25.000 --> 00:18:26.680 back, let's get back to some of the stories coming out of the KFI 226 00:18:26.720 --> 00:18:30.160 twenty four hour newsroom and we'll see if we can catch up with Joel in 227 00:18:30.200 --> 00:18:34.400 a little bit. Health officials in Orange County reported the first human case of 228 00:18:34.440 --> 00:18:38.839 Westnile virus. This year, a woman in Orange tested positive but didn't feel 229 00:18:38.839 --> 00:18:44.240 any symptoms. The Healthcare agency reported eleven cases and people. Last year, 230 00:18:44.640 --> 00:18:48.519 two people died. Officials say the best way to avoid the virus is to 231 00:18:48.559 --> 00:18:53.720 avoid mosquitoes, so they advise emptying any standing water, wearing long sleeves outside, 232 00:18:53.799 --> 00:18:57.839 especially at dawn and dusk, and using bug spray with deet. The 233 00:18:57.880 --> 00:19:03.160 Hawaiian Electric Company says it's downed power lines are responsible for the deadly wildfires on 234 00:19:03.240 --> 00:19:07.960 Maui, but the utility refuses to take all the blame. The company said 235 00:19:07.960 --> 00:19:11.000 while it's lines ignited the fires. Earlier this month, Maui County firefighters failed 236 00:19:11.000 --> 00:19:15.160 to properly extinguish a brushfire, which reignited, causing the destructive fire that tore 237 00:19:15.240 --> 00:19:19.519 through the historic town of Lahaina. Hawaiian Electric CEO said it does not preemptively 238 00:19:19.519 --> 00:19:23.200 shut down power lines, but the company said yesterday it de energized power lines 239 00:19:23.240 --> 00:19:26.960 for six hours before the second fire ignited. The company also set a lawsuit 240 00:19:27.000 --> 00:19:32.839 filed against them by the County of Maui is factually and legally irresponsible. Steve 241 00:19:32.880 --> 00:19:37.480 Gregory kof I News, a faculty member at the University of North Carolina Chapel 242 00:19:37.599 --> 00:19:41.000 Hills has been shot and killed on campus. The accused shooter was arrested about 243 00:19:41.039 --> 00:19:45.039 an hour and a half after the shooting yesterday. Based on witness information at 244 00:19:45.039 --> 00:19:51.519 the scene, UNC police were able to identify suspect and after a search of 245 00:19:51.559 --> 00:19:56.920 the surrounded area, this suspect was taken into custody. UNC Police Chief Brian 246 00:19:56.000 --> 00:20:00.240 James said yesterday investigators were trying to find the gun used and the reason for 247 00:20:00.279 --> 00:20:12.319 the shooting. The false semester just started last week. You saw August is 248 00:20:12.440 --> 00:20:18.319 ending on a blue note with a rare supermoon. A blue moon isn't actually 249 00:20:18.359 --> 00:20:22.640 blue, It just signifies a second full moon within a single month. Nasis's 250 00:20:22.640 --> 00:20:26.240 super moons are brighter and bigger than average moons. Oh maybe that's why the 251 00:20:26.279 --> 00:20:30.519 moon looks so large today when I was driving in stargazers can catch the blue 252 00:20:30.519 --> 00:20:33.400 moon tomorrow night, that's when it's actually full. The last of four consecutive 253 00:20:33.440 --> 00:20:37.359 super moons in twenty twenty three will be the Harvest moon September twenty eight. 254 00:20:37.880 --> 00:20:42.759 The next blue moon after that won't happen until May of twenty twenty six. 255 00:20:45.160 --> 00:20:48.400 Did you hear that Burning Man is going on. I didn't know Burning Man 256 00:20:48.519 --> 00:20:51.880 was even going on this year. I haven't heard anything about it. Here's 257 00:20:51.880 --> 00:20:56.400 what we're following in the KFI twenty four hour newsroom. E Dahlia has become 258 00:20:56.400 --> 00:21:00.440 a Category one hurricane as it motors toward Florida. Forecasters say the storm's going 259 00:21:00.480 --> 00:21:03.680 to continue to gain strength before making landfall on Wednesday. We're gonna be talking 260 00:21:03.680 --> 00:21:07.200 to Jim Ryan in just one second about that. Hawaiian Electric says it's power 261 00:21:07.240 --> 00:21:12.319 lines caused the wildfire on Maui the morning of August eighth, but says power 262 00:21:12.319 --> 00:21:17.680 lines had been de energized for six hours by the time of second fire started 263 00:21:17.720 --> 00:21:22.200 and destroyed Lahina. Attorney General Rob Banta is suing the Chino School District over 264 00:21:22.240 --> 00:21:26.039 its new rule requiring staff to tell parents if their students identify as transgender. 265 00:21:26.559 --> 00:21:30.640 At six oh five. It's handle on the news Hawaiian. The Hawaiian Power 266 00:21:30.680 --> 00:21:33.359 Company, as I mentioned, says its lines did start one of the fires 267 00:21:33.359 --> 00:21:37.480 on Maui, but it has also blamed firefighters for the fire that destroyed Lahina. 268 00:21:37.000 --> 00:21:41.720 Right now, let's say good morning to ABC's Jim Ryan. Florida is 269 00:21:41.839 --> 00:21:48.920 bracing for Hurricane Dalia. Yes, getting ready for it as best they can, 270 00:21:48.160 --> 00:21:51.519 and for a lot of folks who live close to the shoreline, amy 271 00:21:51.559 --> 00:21:55.759 that means simply packing up and getting out. Interstate four headed over to Orlando 272 00:21:55.880 --> 00:22:00.319 was packed this morning with people who were evacuating from the west. It's from 273 00:22:00.319 --> 00:22:03.920 the Gulf coast of the Florida Peninsula and headed in that direction. Others who 274 00:22:04.000 --> 00:22:10.240 live farther in Lanton twenty miles are just laying in supplies of water and canned 275 00:22:10.319 --> 00:22:12.400 goods, as starting up the generator just in case the power goes out, 276 00:22:12.440 --> 00:22:15.759 because it will and it's likely to be out for a few days. The 277 00:22:15.839 --> 00:22:19.599 airport here at Tampa closed at midnight last night, won't open until Thursday. 278 00:22:21.960 --> 00:22:26.480 So how many people actually do evacuate when when the governor calls for that? 279 00:22:26.480 --> 00:22:30.240 Because I know we had a hurricane, but we didn't evacuate. No, 280 00:22:30.400 --> 00:22:33.759 we have a hurricane either. We were gonna have a hurricane, but it 281 00:22:33.960 --> 00:22:38.160 got downgraded. Well, this one, it looks pretty honest. It became 282 00:22:38.559 --> 00:22:42.240 you know, Ada turned into a hurricane this morning at the five o'clock update, 283 00:22:42.319 --> 00:22:48.279 went from below seventy four miles per hour the top wind speed above seventy 284 00:22:48.279 --> 00:22:52.160 four miles That makes it a Category one hurricane. It's not really the wind 285 00:22:52.200 --> 00:22:55.400 that's going to be a problem this time now, although it's expected to be 286 00:22:55.799 --> 00:23:00.200 up around category two per perhaps even a Category three storm by the time it 287 00:23:00.200 --> 00:23:04.480 makes landfall here around Tampa or north of Tampa. It's the storm surge that 288 00:23:04.559 --> 00:23:07.880 will be the major problem. So the wind, well, it's going to 289 00:23:07.960 --> 00:23:14.359 do some damage to property and trees around here. It's also going to push 290 00:23:12.440 --> 00:23:18.119 the tide in farther and this may strike right at high tide, which would 291 00:23:18.160 --> 00:23:22.880 make the storm surge even more intense. Add into it the full moon, 292 00:23:23.279 --> 00:23:29.599 and you're going to have a perfect storm, as it were, of characteristics. 293 00:23:29.880 --> 00:23:33.559 Okay, so when they talk about the storm surge and they say it's 294 00:23:33.559 --> 00:23:37.599 going to be twelve feet, does that mean that the whole the sea level 295 00:23:37.839 --> 00:23:41.559 rises twelve feet or just the waves come in. I don't understand what that 296 00:23:41.599 --> 00:23:47.880 means. Yeah, that's gentleman. It means is that the the shoreline right 297 00:23:47.920 --> 00:23:51.000 there at the shore line, it will be twelve feet above. But but 298 00:23:51.079 --> 00:23:53.960 that's just the waves that are crashing ashore, that are being pushed in by 299 00:23:53.960 --> 00:24:00.359 the wind and by the low pressure of the storm itself and so but obviously 300 00:24:00.400 --> 00:24:04.200 the as you get half mile, quarter mile, a full mile in land, 301 00:24:04.599 --> 00:24:10.119 it won't be that high. But the storm surge right here at Tampa 302 00:24:10.119 --> 00:24:14.200 Bay is expected to be around four to seven feet on top of the high 303 00:24:14.279 --> 00:24:19.440 tide. So the sheriff had sort of an interesting comparison here. He said, 304 00:24:19.480 --> 00:24:22.799 that's that's going to put this storm well above my head, the storm 305 00:24:22.839 --> 00:24:26.839 surge. So he's certainly going to evacuate, so is everybody else in his 306 00:24:26.880 --> 00:24:30.799 community. Where are you going to go? Well, I'll be here in 307 00:24:30.839 --> 00:24:33.400 Tampa and probably up on top of a building somewhere to see what's going on. 308 00:24:33.440 --> 00:24:37.160 I mean, that's kind of been my formula here for the last twenty 309 00:24:37.240 --> 00:24:40.000 years or so. Is it just being on a high location? Okay? 310 00:24:40.039 --> 00:24:44.279 And when people leave, because Florida is pretty good about this because there they 311 00:24:44.319 --> 00:24:48.839 get hurricanes on a kind of regular basis. Where do they go? Do 312 00:24:48.920 --> 00:24:52.480 they go to another state or do they just go into inland areas? Where 313 00:24:52.480 --> 00:24:53.759 do they go? Well, in this case, I think most of them 314 00:24:53.759 --> 00:24:56.720 are heading over toward the East coast. So if the storm is coming up 315 00:24:56.720 --> 00:25:00.119 the Atlantic coast, people who head over here towards Tampa or up into the 316 00:25:00.200 --> 00:25:04.759 Panhandle. For this storm, people will head over to the east coast toward 317 00:25:06.039 --> 00:25:10.200 Orlando or Jacksonville, or even up into Georgia, maybe the Carolinas if they 318 00:25:10.240 --> 00:25:14.119 have family up there. So it's just a matter of moving away from the 319 00:25:14.160 --> 00:25:18.079 predicted landfall area. Okay, And we mostly dodged a bullet with her with 320 00:25:18.279 --> 00:25:23.160 what was Hurricane Hillary then turned to a tropical storm, then became a subtropical 321 00:25:23.319 --> 00:25:29.400 cyclone depression something or other. But is there any chance that they're going to 322 00:25:29.480 --> 00:25:33.559 get a break on this one? Is or is Idealia just powering and getting 323 00:25:33.599 --> 00:25:37.640 stronger. Well, there's always that chance. But considering that the waters of 324 00:25:37.680 --> 00:25:41.960 the Gulf of Mexico are historically warm right now, that serves as jet fuel 325 00:25:42.039 --> 00:25:45.079 for a storm like Idealia. So I think the chances that it's going to 326 00:25:45.119 --> 00:25:48.599 get any less intense are almost zero. The chances that it will get more 327 00:25:48.640 --> 00:25:53.119 intense from where it is right now about wow. And what we had in 328 00:25:53.160 --> 00:26:00.079 our favor was as the storm moved up the Mexican coast, we hit the 329 00:26:00.759 --> 00:26:04.200 cooler waters in the Pacific because our water is a lot cooler, and once 330 00:26:04.240 --> 00:26:07.160 it hits that cold water, it sucks the power out of the storm, 331 00:26:07.240 --> 00:26:11.920 right, Yeah, we don't have that situation now. And you also have 332 00:26:11.599 --> 00:26:17.000 the fact there's no real upper level sheer to this. Normally, the upper 333 00:26:17.079 --> 00:26:21.519 level whether pattern would pull the top off of this storm. That we don't 334 00:26:21.519 --> 00:26:23.160 have that right now, so it could be a problem. Okay, well, 335 00:26:23.880 --> 00:26:27.759 stay safe, all right, stay on high ground. We'll check in 336 00:26:27.839 --> 00:26:32.119 with you two. Thanks Jim. Let's get back to some of the stories 337 00:26:32.160 --> 00:26:34.599 coming out of the KFI twenty four hour newsroom. And excessive heat warning is 338 00:26:34.640 --> 00:26:38.759 in effect until eight tonight in the San Fernando and San Gabriel Valleys, where 339 00:26:38.759 --> 00:26:44.440 temperatures could hit as high as one hundred and nine temps overnight are just in 340 00:26:44.480 --> 00:26:48.000 the seventies and eighties. A less severe heat advisory is in place until eight 341 00:26:48.039 --> 00:26:52.079 tonight in the Santa Clarita Valley, Palace Verdes Hills, coastal areas reaching into 342 00:26:52.079 --> 00:26:57.160 downtown La Santa Monica, Mountains Recreational Area, and the Anelope Valley Freeway Corridor. 343 00:26:57.880 --> 00:27:03.240 Pet experts say even grass can be too hot for pets to walk during 344 00:27:03.319 --> 00:27:07.880 a heat wave. They say grass indirect sunlight will get about ten degrees warmer 345 00:27:07.920 --> 00:27:11.680 when it's one hundred and five degrees. Concrete could be as hot as one 346 00:27:11.759 --> 00:27:18.119 hundred twenty degrees, as asphalt as hot as one hundred forty degrees. With 347 00:27:18.200 --> 00:27:22.440 temperatures of one hundred twenty degrees, pet pause can burn in as little as 348 00:27:22.799 --> 00:27:26.519 five minutes. Something to remember when you're taking the pop out for a walk. 349 00:27:26.279 --> 00:27:30.839 News brought to you by Stemper Solaris. Adelia has become a hurricane. 350 00:27:30.839 --> 00:27:34.480 As we just discussed, the storms headed toward at Florida's Gulf coasts. The 351 00:27:34.559 --> 00:27:40.400 National Hurricane Centers warned of an increasing risk of dangerous hurricane enforced winds in Florida 352 00:27:40.680 --> 00:27:44.759 for the next two days. Landfall is expected early tomorrow. It's likely to 353 00:27:44.799 --> 00:27:51.440 continue strengthening all the way until impact, and it could have catastrophic storm surge. 354 00:27:52.119 --> 00:27:56.359 Governor Ron de Santis has declared a state of emergency in forty six counties. 355 00:27:56.440 --> 00:28:00.160 Evacuation notices have been issued in twenty one counties, and the state has 356 00:28:00.200 --> 00:28:04.240 mobilized eleven hundred National Guard members. Officials in Florida say the man behind the 357 00:28:04.319 --> 00:28:10.160 racist murders of three people in Jacksonville texted his father about where to find his 358 00:28:10.279 --> 00:28:14.599 last will and testament. And a suicide note. The dad called nine to 359 00:28:14.599 --> 00:28:18.880 one one and said his son had felt suicidal before when he was fifteen. 360 00:28:19.119 --> 00:28:27.200 He left the note a suicide note, and got on his bike and was 361 00:28:27.240 --> 00:28:30.799 headed downtown to jump off a building. The dad says by the time he 362 00:28:30.880 --> 00:28:34.359 notified police on Saturday, the twenty one year old had already shot and killed 363 00:28:34.440 --> 00:28:40.519 three black people and himself at a Dollar General store. Anti government protests in 364 00:28:40.599 --> 00:28:45.799 southern syriaev Truck stretched into a second week. The protests started because of surging 365 00:28:45.880 --> 00:28:51.960 inflation and the country's spiraling economy, but quickly shifted focus with marches calling for 366 00:28:52.000 --> 00:28:56.240 the fall of the Assad government. Protesters have kicked members of Assad's Bath Party 367 00:28:56.279 --> 00:29:00.640 out of some of their offices. They've also welld the doors shut and spray 368 00:29:00.680 --> 00:29:07.119 painted anti government slogans on walls, and Russia says President Vladimir Putin is not 369 00:29:07.200 --> 00:29:12.160 planning to attend the funeral of Mercenary chief. You have Guinea Progosian, who 370 00:29:12.200 --> 00:29:17.160 was killed in a plane crash. Russian investigators say that after forensic testing, 371 00:29:17.160 --> 00:29:21.079 it can confirm Progosian was among ten people on board the ill fated flight. 372 00:29:21.160 --> 00:29:26.599 Last week, ABC's Britt Clement says Russia has not said what may have caused 373 00:29:26.599 --> 00:29:30.279 the private jet to suddenly fall out of the sky near Moscow and denied any 374 00:29:30.319 --> 00:29:36.440 responsibility for it. Officials wouldn't say when or where the leader of the Wagner 375 00:29:36.480 --> 00:29:40.640 Group would be buried. Some Russian media have suggested it could happen today in 376 00:29:40.720 --> 00:29:45.680 Progosian's home city of Saint Petersburg. Right now, let's say good morning to 377 00:29:45.960 --> 00:29:51.640 ABC's White House correspondent Karen Travers. Good morning, Karen. What's the agenda 378 00:29:51.680 --> 00:29:56.359 on the agenda for President Biden today? The President's going to be talking today 379 00:29:56.519 --> 00:30:00.440 about the administration's efforts to lower healthcare costs for there in families broadly, but 380 00:30:00.519 --> 00:30:04.079 he's specifically going to be talking about the new list that was announced today of 381 00:30:04.119 --> 00:30:10.480 the first ten prescription drugs selected for the Medicare price negotiations, the major step 382 00:30:10.519 --> 00:30:12.720 in their effort to bring down healthcare costs. For the first time ever, 383 00:30:12.839 --> 00:30:18.559 the Medicare health program for older Americans can negotiate with drug companies about the price 384 00:30:18.720 --> 00:30:22.200 of some of its most expensive drugs. And this is happening because of the 385 00:30:22.200 --> 00:30:26.079 Inflation Reduction Act that the Presidents signed into law last year. The negotiations with 386 00:30:26.240 --> 00:30:30.160 the participating drug companies can start this year, and then we'll go into next 387 00:30:30.240 --> 00:30:34.960 year, and any negotiated prices go into effects starting in twenty twenty six. 388 00:30:36.359 --> 00:30:38.720 So some of the drugs that were on the list today include medicines to treat 389 00:30:38.720 --> 00:30:42.920 blood clots, diabetes, and rheumatoid arthritis. The White House says this is 390 00:30:42.920 --> 00:30:47.440 going to make a major difference for millions of seniors bringing down their out of 391 00:30:47.480 --> 00:30:52.039 pocket costs. And when you're talking about bringing down out of pocket costs, 392 00:30:52.039 --> 00:30:55.400 what kind of reductions are you talking about? Is it ten or twenty percent, 393 00:30:55.519 --> 00:30:59.880 or fifty or sixty? Gotta see what the negotiation looks like. They 394 00:31:00.039 --> 00:31:03.079 don't really have a good estimate just yet, but the Administration says that the 395 00:31:03.240 --> 00:31:07.720 ten drugs that are covered that are announced today, Medicare enrollees that we're taking 396 00:31:07.759 --> 00:31:12.160 these ten drugs. Last year twenty twenty two paid a total of three point 397 00:31:12.200 --> 00:31:17.119 four billion dollars in out of pocket costs. Out of pocket costs, so 398 00:31:17.119 --> 00:31:19.519 that's significant. So they say that that number is certainly going to come down 399 00:31:19.720 --> 00:31:26.440 once these prices are negotiated. Does Medicare have to negotiate I mean that's part 400 00:31:26.440 --> 00:31:29.680 of the laws of view now as part of the Inflation Reduction Act. This 401 00:31:29.759 --> 00:31:33.839 is a measure that was included in that legislation that Medicare is allowed to and 402 00:31:33.880 --> 00:31:37.400 now has to negotiate with participating drug companies that are part of the Medicare program. 403 00:31:37.599 --> 00:31:41.079 The companies can choose to withdraw, but that means they're not selling the 404 00:31:41.160 --> 00:31:45.839 drugs into the government. And if they choose to refuse to negotiate, if 405 00:31:45.839 --> 00:31:48.640 they had been part of it, they could also face some heavy taxes. 406 00:31:48.599 --> 00:31:52.640 And are the drug companies kind of kicking and screaming or they're just going along 407 00:31:52.680 --> 00:31:56.240 with it so far? Not kicking and screaming from everybody. There was one 408 00:31:56.319 --> 00:32:00.440 lawsuit filed by murch saying that this was unconsortabitutional. They filed this back in 409 00:32:00.480 --> 00:32:04.960 early June. The administration told me at the time that they felt that they 410 00:32:04.960 --> 00:32:07.880 were on firm legal standing on this. A lot of lawyers we talked to 411 00:32:07.920 --> 00:32:10.559 at the time so that they agreed. Mark said it was unconstitutional, but 412 00:32:10.640 --> 00:32:14.920 the White House that they were going to fight it through the whole legal process 413 00:32:14.960 --> 00:32:17.559 and they felt that they would prevail. So is Mark still fighting or did 414 00:32:17.640 --> 00:32:21.200 they kind of back down. Yes, yeah, no, the process is 415 00:32:21.200 --> 00:32:23.920 still playing out, but we haven't seen a major push. I mean farmat 416 00:32:23.920 --> 00:32:29.680 today the big pharmaceutical lobbying company put out a statement criticizing this new surprise. 417 00:32:29.759 --> 00:32:32.880 They had fought it during the process of the Inflation Reduction Act being drafted into 418 00:32:34.000 --> 00:32:37.240 legislation. But as they say, this is something the President signed into law 419 00:32:37.359 --> 00:32:40.480 last year, last August, so it has been baked into law for over 420 00:32:40.519 --> 00:32:47.200 a year now, didn't Isn't there already something that affects insulin. Yeah, 421 00:32:47.279 --> 00:32:52.079 that is the cap on insulin for seniors at thirty five dollars a month, 422 00:32:52.119 --> 00:32:54.799 and the White House says that that has already made a major impact for millions 423 00:32:54.839 --> 00:33:00.319 of Americans. That you know, this stuff has already gone into effect as 424 00:33:00.319 --> 00:33:04.079 part of the Inflation Reduction Act. That's had a significant impact on people. 425 00:33:04.359 --> 00:33:06.839 So is that sort of a testing the water. We'll see how the insulin 426 00:33:06.920 --> 00:33:09.640 one goes, and then we'll expand it to more. Yeah, that went 427 00:33:09.680 --> 00:33:13.680 into effect on January first, and he was like nearly four million seniors with 428 00:33:13.720 --> 00:33:16.440 diabetes who's now had their cost cap at thirty five dollars per month, and 429 00:33:16.440 --> 00:33:20.359 they're looking to expand that. Then for more people. Okay, and then 430 00:33:20.400 --> 00:33:22.720 real quick, what kind of timeframe are we looking at if they have to 431 00:33:22.759 --> 00:33:25.960 start negotiating now? Are when are we expecting the drug places to actually fall? 432 00:33:27.039 --> 00:33:30.720 Do we have any kind of twenty twenty six, So the negotiations will 433 00:33:30.720 --> 00:33:34.880 be this year and twenty twenty four, and then the negotiated prices would go 434 00:33:34.880 --> 00:33:37.480 into effect in twenty twenty six. Okay, thank you so much, Karen, 435 00:33:37.559 --> 00:33:40.920 Drivers appreciate your time this morning. I have a great day. Let's 436 00:33:40.920 --> 00:33:44.519 get back to some of the stories coming out of the KFI twenty four hour 437 00:33:44.599 --> 00:33:47.599 newsroom. A federal jury has awarded nearly twenty four million dollars in damages to 438 00:33:47.640 --> 00:33:52.759 the mother of a man shot and killed by police in Kanoga Park. The 439 00:33:52.799 --> 00:33:57.400 man was holding a metal bar in twenty seventeen that police said the officers believed 440 00:33:57.519 --> 00:34:00.559 was a machete. The other county DA's off has decided not to file charges 441 00:34:00.599 --> 00:34:07.799 against the officers, saying they were legally justified in firing their weapons. Windows 442 00:34:07.839 --> 00:34:10.840 at several businesses in the San Fernando Valley been smashed. Will he say, 443 00:34:10.880 --> 00:34:15.519 an La Fitness in North Hollywood, a moving supply store in Van Nuys, 444 00:34:15.559 --> 00:34:19.840 and a health store in Sherman Oaks. We're all hit yesterday morning. San 445 00:34:19.880 --> 00:34:24.000 Clementi has asked the state to consider building temporary homeless housing for the region on 446 00:34:24.119 --> 00:34:28.920 state property. In Costa Mesa. The problem of homelessness is a regional issue, 447 00:34:28.960 --> 00:34:31.679 Thank Clementi. Councilman Steve Noblock says, the old Fairview Developmental Center could 448 00:34:31.719 --> 00:34:36.400 house homeless people from multiple cities in South County. San Clementi is already built 449 00:34:36.440 --> 00:34:39.559 out. We don't have one hundred acre facility that's capable of housing twenty seven 450 00:34:39.679 --> 00:34:44.480 hundred individuals. Costa Mesa Mayor John Stephen says his city's already working with the 451 00:34:44.559 --> 00:34:47.519 state for permanent housing on that property. We're looking to put two thousand units 452 00:34:47.599 --> 00:34:52.840 there of mixed income, mixed use, kind of a village, if you 453 00:34:52.920 --> 00:34:54.679 will, he says. Costa Mesa partnered on the regional shelter, and San 454 00:34:54.760 --> 00:34:59.840 Clementi can too. In Orange County, Corbin Carson kf I News Metro says 455 00:35:00.000 --> 00:35:05.199 more than twenty three million people used transit systems in July. It marks the 456 00:35:05.360 --> 00:35:08.880 eighth consecutive month of year over year growth. July marked the first full month 457 00:35:08.960 --> 00:35:14.159 of operation for the new A and E lines. In July, ridership on 458 00:35:14.199 --> 00:35:17.400 those lines rose by twenty six percent on weekdays compared to the combined on the 459 00:35:17.519 --> 00:35:23.159 A n L lines. Last July, ridership on weekends was up nearly forty 460 00:35:23.239 --> 00:35:28.159 two percent. I wonder how much of that had to do with Taylor Swift. 461 00:35:28.840 --> 00:35:32.519 Former President Trump has been told to work his campaign trips around a March 462 00:35:32.639 --> 00:35:38.480 fourth trial date in Washington, DC. Aaron Katurski says prosecutors argued Trump's behavior 463 00:35:38.599 --> 00:35:44.599 on a daily basis requires a speedy trial, saying he has publicly disparaged witnesses, 464 00:35:44.679 --> 00:35:46.920 he has attacked the integrity of the courts, the citizens of the District 465 00:35:47.000 --> 00:35:52.480 of Columbia who make up our jury pool, and this potentially prejudices the jury 466 00:35:52.519 --> 00:35:57.000 pool. Judge Tanya Shutkin says Trump, like any defendant, will have to 467 00:35:57.079 --> 00:36:01.000 make the trial date work, regardless of his schedule. Trump's lawyers argued any 468 00:36:01.119 --> 00:36:07.280 quick trial would amount to a miscarriage of justice. Okay, you all know 469 00:36:07.400 --> 00:36:12.320 about TikTok trends, right, like eating tide pods and stupid stuff that can 470 00:36:12.440 --> 00:36:15.239 kill you. I think one of them was the cinnamon you'd take like a 471 00:36:15.320 --> 00:36:19.840 teaspoon of cinnamon, and I think there was one that had to do with 472 00:36:20.039 --> 00:36:22.840 helping people pass out, like grabbing them from behind and making them pass out. 473 00:36:22.880 --> 00:36:27.360 Here are a couple of TikTok trends that may actually be good for you. 474 00:36:28.400 --> 00:36:31.320 There's a thing called silent walking. It's been trending since early this summer, 475 00:36:31.960 --> 00:36:38.239 so you know it's walking, but the trend is to do it to 476 00:36:38.440 --> 00:36:45.119 clear your mind. Go for a walk alone, free of distractions. It's 477 00:36:45.199 --> 00:36:46.960 kind of like a meditation thing, right, So here are things to do. 478 00:36:47.079 --> 00:36:52.320 Walk in and near by quiet area. Take care of your basic bodily 479 00:36:52.440 --> 00:36:54.760 needs before you leave the house, like you know, get something to drink, 480 00:36:54.800 --> 00:36:59.719 something to eat, and use the restroom because those things can be distractions 481 00:36:59.760 --> 00:37:00.960 if I have to go to the bathroom or you're hungry, you're thirsty. 482 00:37:01.360 --> 00:37:06.440 Make sure it's just you and your thoughts. So silent walking really means no 483 00:37:06.639 --> 00:37:12.480 phone, no music, no walking buddy, and no dog. It doesn't 484 00:37:12.519 --> 00:37:15.599 sound like much fun to me. I like taking an animal with me, 485 00:37:15.719 --> 00:37:19.360 I like going for walks with friends, and I love having music if I'm 486 00:37:19.519 --> 00:37:22.840 going by myself. So but silent walking. And then here's the other one, 487 00:37:22.039 --> 00:37:25.920 bed rotting. It's not as gross as it sounds. So it involves 488 00:37:25.960 --> 00:37:30.199 spending the day in bed, scrolling through social media, binge watching your favorite 489 00:37:30.239 --> 00:37:35.360 shows, or just sleeping or doing other relaxing things. Bed Rotting, i 490 00:37:35.440 --> 00:37:37.840 think, is one of my favorite things to do in the whole world. 491 00:37:37.559 --> 00:37:40.079 I'm a big advocate of bed rotting. I think I did it over the 492 00:37:40.119 --> 00:37:45.639 weekend. I watched the Guardians of the Galaxy Volume three, which came out 493 00:37:45.760 --> 00:37:49.599 and now it's streaming so you don't have to pay for it. And then 494 00:37:49.599 --> 00:37:52.280 I jumped into the rabbit hole and watched all the Guardians of the Galaxy movies, 495 00:37:52.320 --> 00:37:55.760 and now I'm watching the end of the Marvel Series two.
