WEBVTT 1 00:00:00.600 --> 00:00:02.919 This is Gary and Shannon and you're listening to KFI 2 00:00:03.080 --> 00:00:05.839 AM six forty, the Gary and Shannon Show on demand 3 00:00:05.919 --> 00:00:09.400 on the iHeartRadio app. Well, remember when George gascon through 4 00:00:09.439 --> 00:00:12.240 the Hail Mary to get the Menendez brothers out to 5 00:00:12.400 --> 00:00:14.960 save his seat at the La County DA's office. 6 00:00:15.640 --> 00:00:17.640 Gavin Newsome tried to get. 7 00:00:17.359 --> 00:00:21.199 In on it, tiptoed his way towards it in asking 8 00:00:21.199 --> 00:00:25.800 the Parole board to create a report about the Menendez brothers. 9 00:00:25.839 --> 00:00:28.359 Are they really that much of a threat? What would 10 00:00:28.399 --> 00:00:31.879 happen if we release them? What is the risk factor? Well, 11 00:00:31.879 --> 00:00:35.679 that report was done, and as this case made its 12 00:00:35.679 --> 00:00:39.000 way through this portion of the legal system, a judge 13 00:00:39.000 --> 00:00:42.840 most recently seemed poised to re sentence the brothers to 14 00:00:43.759 --> 00:00:48.679 life with the possibility for parole, to change their life 15 00:00:48.679 --> 00:00:52.479 without the possibility of parole, to fifty years to life 16 00:00:52.520 --> 00:00:56.439 with the possibility of parole. Well, that seemed to be 17 00:00:56.600 --> 00:01:00.000 what was going to happen today, as Michael Monks report 18 00:01:00.280 --> 00:01:03.560 in KFI News, today was the day that that judge 19 00:01:03.600 --> 00:01:05.799 was going to hear more arguments from the La County 20 00:01:05.840 --> 00:01:11.680 DA's office and the Menandez brothers attorney Mark Garragis no stranger. 21 00:01:11.239 --> 00:01:14.519 To us about this very matter. 22 00:01:14.719 --> 00:01:18.000 Well, late yesterday the DA's office said no, no, let's 23 00:01:18.040 --> 00:01:21.760 delay this because they got their hands on that report 24 00:01:21.840 --> 00:01:22.799 from the parole board. 25 00:01:22.959 --> 00:01:25.000 Yeah, they want to go through and review this. 26 00:01:26.560 --> 00:01:30.040 Finished parole board assessment see if there's anything in there 27 00:01:30.040 --> 00:01:31.680 that's going to help the bolster their case. 28 00:01:31.799 --> 00:01:34.120 Well, they have it, so they've reviewed it. 29 00:01:34.680 --> 00:01:37.120 Then why would they ask for a delay. 30 00:01:36.879 --> 00:01:38.760 Because the judge has yet to review it. 31 00:01:38.959 --> 00:01:40.280 Oh, they want the. 32 00:01:40.319 --> 00:01:43.760 Judge to take this mark Geregis is fighting this. So 33 00:01:44.200 --> 00:01:47.920 that leads me to believe being an armchair detective what 34 00:01:47.959 --> 00:01:48.640 does that even mean? 35 00:01:48.760 --> 00:01:49.760 Armchair detective? 36 00:01:50.599 --> 00:01:54.680 I don't know anyway, being an amateur sleuth as i am, 37 00:01:54.920 --> 00:01:56.959 it leads me to believe there's something in the report 38 00:01:57.000 --> 00:02:00.280 that the DA's office likes that Geagis does not. 39 00:02:00.560 --> 00:02:03.840 Yeah, that'll be interesting. It is a small court room. 40 00:02:03.920 --> 00:02:07.280 We were talking. We heard Michael talking with the handle 41 00:02:07.319 --> 00:02:10.520 about what was going on. There's only a handful of 42 00:02:10.520 --> 00:02:12.120 people that are going to be allowed into this thing 43 00:02:12.199 --> 00:02:15.800 to even view whatever's going on. If the judge does 44 00:02:15.919 --> 00:02:19.599 allow this, or if the judge does not grant the delay, 45 00:02:19.639 --> 00:02:21.520 this is supposed to take a couple of days of 46 00:02:22.000 --> 00:02:23.560 the current hearing that they're working. 47 00:02:23.479 --> 00:02:26.960 Well and Geagas is a grandstanding that's what he gets 48 00:02:27.000 --> 00:02:30.080 paid handsomely to do. But he says, is you heard 49 00:02:30.120 --> 00:02:32.719 Michael report that he doesn't think the judge. 50 00:02:32.479 --> 00:02:35.159 Will grant this delay. The judge will grant the delay. 51 00:02:35.719 --> 00:02:38.479 Geregas may still be able to present whatever he decided 52 00:02:38.520 --> 00:02:40.960 to present today, but the judge isn't going to make 53 00:02:41.000 --> 00:02:43.360 any sort of decision and the DA's office doesn't need 54 00:02:43.400 --> 00:02:46.439 to present anything today until the judge gets his hands 55 00:02:46.479 --> 00:02:47.080 on that report. 56 00:02:47.159 --> 00:02:49.680 Well, Michael Monks is at the courthouse Invan Eyes and 57 00:02:50.400 --> 00:02:51.240 is going to keep an eye on it. 58 00:02:51.759 --> 00:02:52.800 We'll talk with him next. 59 00:02:52.680 --> 00:02:53.759 Week, like what's in that report? 60 00:02:53.960 --> 00:02:56.960 If the DA's office likes it and Geggas does not. 61 00:02:57.479 --> 00:03:00.639 There's got to be something that the parole board about 62 00:03:00.639 --> 00:03:04.120 the Menendez brothers that makes them a bigger risk than 63 00:03:04.159 --> 00:03:08.639 initially thought. There's got to be something that they have 64 00:03:08.800 --> 00:03:12.520 done or not done or whatever inside that has led 65 00:03:12.560 --> 00:03:16.879 the Parole Board to put out something that Garrigus is afraid. 66 00:03:16.560 --> 00:03:19.120 Of, because the information that we've had about their time 67 00:03:19.159 --> 00:03:23.120 in prison at least last decade, has been positive. It's 68 00:03:23.199 --> 00:03:25.560 about college degrees. And about the work that they do 69 00:03:25.680 --> 00:03:27.680 and the volunteering and right, they. 70 00:03:27.520 --> 00:03:31.639 Were pissed off that the gravy train was ending and 71 00:03:31.719 --> 00:03:34.000 they wanted money, and they wanted to continue to do 72 00:03:34.080 --> 00:03:36.639 nothing and use their parents' money, and the parents said no, 73 00:03:36.639 --> 00:03:39.240 no more. So they were pissed off, little spoiled brats, 74 00:03:39.240 --> 00:03:42.759 and they premeditated the brutal murders of both their parents. 75 00:03:43.319 --> 00:03:46.719 And this whole yes, but they were molested. Evidence that 76 00:03:47.039 --> 00:03:49.919 was not even admissible in court for at least one 77 00:03:49.919 --> 00:03:53.759 of the trials has gained all of this attention thanks 78 00:03:53.759 --> 00:03:55.520 to Ryan Murphy's Netflix show. 79 00:03:56.240 --> 00:03:58.240 And it's just not true. 80 00:03:58.520 --> 00:04:01.719 It's the narrative that's got so much oxygen and it's 81 00:04:01.919 --> 00:04:02.800 just not true. 82 00:04:02.840 --> 00:04:05.120 Well, listen, you know, these days, we don't necessarily have 83 00:04:05.199 --> 00:04:06.319 to say things that are true. 84 00:04:06.360 --> 00:04:08.319 We just have to say things that people want to hear. 85 00:04:08.680 --> 00:04:08.840 Right. 86 00:04:09.360 --> 00:04:11.759 Hey, I'll be the first to say, I just say 87 00:04:11.759 --> 00:04:14.439 things forcefully, I don't really know what I'm talking about, 88 00:04:14.680 --> 00:04:15.520 with just. 89 00:04:15.479 --> 00:04:17.920 A slightly aggressive tone, and it becomes believable. 90 00:04:18.040 --> 00:04:21.360 Exactly a lot going on today outside of the Menenda stuff, 91 00:04:21.360 --> 00:04:23.839 and again we'll talk about it again next hour.

And so I asked him if he had 146 00:07:03.439 --> 00:07:06.519 any evidence that kill Mar was a member of MS 147 00:07:06.600 --> 00:07:08.360 thirteen or had committed any crimes. 148 00:07:08.360 --> 00:07:10.279 And he said no, all right. 149 00:07:10.879 --> 00:07:13.560 The idea that this guy is an MS thirteen member 150 00:07:13.680 --> 00:07:17.319 is based on some pretty flimsy evidence, but it is evidence. 151 00:07:17.959 --> 00:07:20.360 You can't say that there's no evidence. Not only do 152 00:07:20.439 --> 00:07:23.360 they have him connected to certain members of MS thirteen, 153 00:07:23.720 --> 00:07:26.480 they have an informant who gave up his rank in 154 00:07:26.560 --> 00:07:27.000 the gang. 155 00:07:27.079 --> 00:07:29.279 They gave up his street name in the gang. 156 00:07:29.639 --> 00:07:33.680 He's also a guy whose wife obtained a temporary protective 157 00:07:33.759 --> 00:07:36.920 order against him because he beat the crap out of her. 158 00:07:37.279 --> 00:07:43.240 At least once, probably twice. And then this woman, his 159 00:07:43.399 --> 00:07:49.399 now wife, she had the father of her two previous kids, 160 00:07:50.199 --> 00:07:53.720 also go to court to try to get a protective 161 00:07:53.800 --> 00:07:56.079 order against the guy because he was afraid for the 162 00:07:56.120 --> 00:07:58.759 lives of his children who were living with him at 163 00:07:58.759 --> 00:07:59.040 the time. 164 00:07:59.240 --> 00:07:59.759 This is not. 165 00:07:59.800 --> 00:08:03.079 A poster boy of like, just an innocent guy making 166 00:08:03.120 --> 00:08:05.360 a living and doing nothing but trying to achieve the 167 00:08:05.399 --> 00:08:06.079 American dream. 168 00:08:06.199 --> 00:08:08.279 We knew when this first came out that they nobody 169 00:08:08.319 --> 00:08:11.439 should be hanging their hat on this guy. There wasn't 170 00:08:11.560 --> 00:08:14.800 enough evidence to suggest that he was, you know, the 171 00:08:15.120 --> 00:08:19.680 poster child for their sending innocent people away. You know, 172 00:08:19.720 --> 00:08:22.120 there just wasn't enough evidence. Not enough people raised their 173 00:08:22.120 --> 00:08:24.959 hand and said, what a great guy. He's done this, 174 00:08:24.959 --> 00:08:27.360 this and this, you know, and so you kind of 175 00:08:27.439 --> 00:08:28.560 knew where this was headed. 176 00:08:28.639 --> 00:08:31.839 Well, and to me, this is a fixable problem. President 177 00:08:31.839 --> 00:08:34.320 Trump gets on the phone with his brand new friend, 178 00:08:34.399 --> 00:08:36.559 the president of al Salvador, who was just at the 179 00:08:36.559 --> 00:08:38.720 White House last week, and just say, hey, listen, we're 180 00:08:38.720 --> 00:08:40.600 going to send a plane down, Let's get this guy 181 00:08:40.679 --> 00:08:42.840 back up here. We're going to go through the whatever 182 00:08:42.879 --> 00:08:45.200 process they want us to go through, and we're going 183 00:08:45.279 --> 00:08:46.080 to deport him again. 184 00:08:46.360 --> 00:08:47.720 That's that that would. 185 00:08:47.559 --> 00:08:49.399 Be That's not the way he does things, But. 186 00:08:49.720 --> 00:08:53.000 That would be the way to keep all of this 187 00:08:53.039 --> 00:08:55.759 from flaming up in their faces. Both sides have got 188 00:08:55.840 --> 00:08:57.879 this thing completely wrong.

It's a pushback. 221 00:10:35.840 --> 00:10:38.559 It must be a pushback, and I embrace it because 222 00:10:38.600 --> 00:10:44.600 I too enjoy masculinity, and I don't enjoy it. Like 223 00:10:44.679 --> 00:10:47.840 I was pulling into the garage this morning, there was 224 00:10:47.879 --> 00:10:51.720 a guy walking across the street, young man, good looking 225 00:10:51.759 --> 00:10:56.960 young man, and he was wearing pink slingback crocs like 226 00:10:57.120 --> 00:10:59.279 tied eyed pink slingback crocs. 227 00:10:59.440 --> 00:11:02.480 Now you're you're not on the fall for the uh 228 00:11:03.159 --> 00:11:08.799 ironic wearing of the pink crocs like Jason Momoa, like Petros. 229 00:11:09.519 --> 00:11:12.279 Right, no, no, I don't fall for any of that crap. 230 00:11:12.919 --> 00:11:15.960 I cannot handle the crocs on anybody. You can be Petros, 231 00:11:16.000 --> 00:11:18.080 you can be Jason Momoa. You can be the most 232 00:11:18.120 --> 00:11:22.279 masculine masculine dude, and the crocs ruin it. But that's 233 00:11:22.360 --> 00:11:26.720 the whole point. Like I just I uh, that's maybe 234 00:11:26.759 --> 00:11:29.600 what was alluring to me, because these are all four 235 00:11:29.639 --> 00:11:33.000 guys who run farms, or at least they allegedly purport 236 00:11:33.039 --> 00:11:35.480 to run farms or have a hand in it. They're 237 00:11:35.519 --> 00:11:40.639 wearing boots, they're wearing hard pants, they're doing things, and 238 00:11:41.000 --> 00:11:44.080 the women were appreciating that. And I just don't think 239 00:11:44.120 --> 00:11:46.919 I've heard that for a handful of years now, because 240 00:11:46.960 --> 00:11:50.279 it's all been taught, like you said, all to masculinity. 241 00:11:50.600 --> 00:11:51.440 It's always bad. 242 00:11:51.879 --> 00:11:54.879 We want our men to hide their penises and swim 243 00:11:54.879 --> 00:11:57.120 with the girls. Like all of the things that I 244 00:11:57.240 --> 00:12:00.720 hear about are awful. So it's kind of an I 245 00:12:00.720 --> 00:12:03.840 guess that's why I I'm trying to rationalize why I 246 00:12:03.879 --> 00:12:04.600 watched the show. 247 00:12:04.639 --> 00:12:07.159 I don't have to rationalize anything. I don't think there's 248 00:12:07.159 --> 00:12:09.240 anything wrong with that. It's just to me a very 249 00:12:09.279 --> 00:12:11.440 big surprise that you would. 250 00:12:11.159 --> 00:12:14.600 Go that low sink that yeah far yeah. 251 00:12:16.120 --> 00:12:18.679 Maybe, Well, it's a dark time when hacks and friends 252 00:12:18.720 --> 00:12:20.639 and neighbors come out on Thursdays and Fridays. 253 00:12:20.639 --> 00:12:23.759 It's just gonna say we we caught up on everything 254 00:12:23.840 --> 00:12:26.679 yesterday and all I did. So it was like, I 255 00:12:26.679 --> 00:12:29.440 don't know, ten minutes after nine last night and we 256 00:12:29.639 --> 00:12:32.600 got this next episode of this Your Friends and Neighbors 257 00:12:32.600 --> 00:12:35.639 with John Ham, and then we just watched previews for. 258 00:12:35.600 --> 00:12:39.519 Like see ten or fift you were also go to bed. 259 00:12:39.639 --> 00:12:42.879 That's what I did basically about the same time, about 260 00:12:43.000 --> 00:12:46.200 nine ten, I was like, turn this crap off and 261 00:12:46.320 --> 00:12:51.559 read your freaking book. But yeah, and it's also what 262 00:12:51.639 --> 00:12:53.720 is it day four?

It might rain tomorrow too, it 266 00:13:03.679 --> 00:13:06.720 might rain today. Well, then I don't know what we're 267 00:13:06.720 --> 00:13:08.879 going to do. We're gonna have to bring our own 268 00:13:08.879 --> 00:13:09.799 sunshine tomorrow. 269 00:13:10.320 --> 00:13:13.360 Well, there's a new episode of Farmer Wants a Wife tonight. 270 00:13:16.600 --> 00:13:19.360 A little ray for the end of the week. All right, 271 00:13:19.639 --> 00:13:23.639 the drug powel story. Fire Festival two. Check your email box, 272 00:13:23.679 --> 00:13:26.600 by the way, because Fire Festival two ticket buyers are 273 00:13:26.600 --> 00:13:29.320 going to get a full refund because that nobody saw 274 00:13:29.399 --> 00:13:29.879 this coming. 275 00:13:30.320 --> 00:13:31.440 That thing is imploding on. 276 00:13:31.639 --> 00:13:34.159 Are you so upset? I know you are really looking 277 00:13:34.200 --> 00:13:35.039 forward to totally. 278 00:13:35.600 --> 00:13:36.039 We'll do that. 279 00:13:36.080 --> 00:13:39.759 We come back you're listening to Gary and Shannon on 280 00:13:39.840 --> 00:13:42.279 demand from KFI am six forty. 281 00:13:42.519 --> 00:13:47.440 We told you about Jerome Powell talking at that meeting 282 00:13:47.559 --> 00:13:52.480 yesterday about his outlook for the future when it comes 283 00:13:52.519 --> 00:13:55.799 to the country and the economy, and how it's a 284 00:13:55.960 --> 00:13:59.240 pretty uncertain Trump said that this guy can't leave his 285 00:13:59.320 --> 00:13:59.799 job soon. 286 00:14:00.679 --> 00:14:04.559 The level of tariff increases announced so far is significantly 287 00:14:04.639 --> 00:14:07.120 larger than anticipated, and the same is likely to be 288 00:14:07.200 --> 00:14:11.159 true of the economic effects, which will include higher inflation 289 00:14:11.440 --> 00:14:14.840 and slower growth. Tariffs are highly likely to generate at 290 00:14:14.919 --> 00:14:19.639 least a temporary rise in inflation. The inflationary effects could 291 00:14:19.919 --> 00:14:21.120 also be more persistent. 292 00:14:21.840 --> 00:14:26.440 Well, not a surprise. He's saying that the tariff uncertainty 293 00:14:26.600 --> 00:14:28.879 and the tariffs that we do know of right now 294 00:14:29.320 --> 00:14:31.200 are going to cause a strain on the economy. 295 00:14:31.240 --> 00:14:33.360 But Trump doesn't want to hear that. He wants to 296 00:14:33.399 --> 00:14:36.720 hear only positive news. He only wants to hear that 297 00:14:36.759 --> 00:14:38.960 this will be great in the long term for the country. 298 00:14:39.000 --> 00:14:42.480 He doesn't want to hear anything more about the speed 299 00:14:42.559 --> 00:14:46.840 bumps that this is going to result in. He doesn't 300 00:14:46.919 --> 00:14:50.120 want to hear about inflation. He went on Truth's Social 301 00:14:50.159 --> 00:14:53.919 this morning and with regard to Powell said quote, termination 302 00:14:54.080 --> 00:14:55.480 cannot come fast enough. 303 00:14:56.000 --> 00:14:58.559 However, Powell's job looks safe. 304 00:14:59.039 --> 00:15:03.440 Any attempt to rem move him would obviously feed instability 305 00:15:03.480 --> 00:15:09.720 in the markets already suffering. And it's a legally questionable 306 00:15:09.799 --> 00:15:13.279 option that Trump considered in his first term as well. 307 00:15:14.039 --> 00:15:18.200 I haven't gotten into how that could work, but I'm 308 00:15:18.240 --> 00:15:21.440 assuming because they wrote it up in Politico as a 309 00:15:21.519 --> 00:15:25.519 legally questionable option. It gets pretty weedy when it comes 310 00:15:25.559 --> 00:15:27.240 to can Trump get rid of Powell? 311 00:15:27.879 --> 00:15:31.799 Yeah, and his reference to it in this truth social 312 00:15:31.840 --> 00:15:36.159 post today he said the ECB European Central Bank is 313 00:15:36.200 --> 00:15:38.320 expected to cut interest rates for a seventh time, and 314 00:15:38.399 --> 00:15:41.320 yet too late. Jerome Powell of the Fed, who is 315 00:15:41.360 --> 00:15:44.960 always too late and wrong, yesterday issued a report which 316 00:15:45.039 --> 00:15:48.080 was another and typical complete mess. Oil prices are down, 317 00:15:48.159 --> 00:15:51.519 groceries even eggs are down, and the USA is getting 318 00:15:51.600 --> 00:15:52.440 rich on tariffs. 319 00:15:52.480 --> 00:15:52.960 Too late. 320 00:15:53.000 --> 00:15:55.840 Should have lowered interest rates like the ECB long ago, 321 00:15:56.559 --> 00:16:00.840 but he should certainly lower them now. Powell's termination cannot 322 00:16:00.919 --> 00:16:05.519 come fast enough. The people in the White House again 323 00:16:05.679 --> 00:16:08.240 are forced to try to interpret what the president rights 324 00:16:08.279 --> 00:16:09.039 on social media. 325 00:16:10.080 --> 00:16:10.759 Not doing that. 326 00:16:10.799 --> 00:16:14.600 The White House spokesperson referred all questions back to that post. 327 00:16:15.200 --> 00:16:16.080 It's the idiot. 328 00:16:17.799 --> 00:16:20.440 It's an idiotic thing for this guy to continue to 329 00:16:20.519 --> 00:16:23.840 manage via social media. And I wish that somebody would 330 00:16:23.879 --> 00:16:25.000 have gotten that message to him. 331 00:16:25.000 --> 00:16:25.600 And then you just. 332 00:16:25.559 --> 00:16:28.120 Say this guy about the president. 333 00:16:27.720 --> 00:16:28.360 You know what I mean? 334 00:16:28.799 --> 00:16:29.679 Oh God. 335 00:16:29.799 --> 00:16:35.159 They have said that at least been telling Politico that 336 00:16:35.240 --> 00:16:38.720 this is less of an attempt to oust Jerome Powell 337 00:16:38.799 --> 00:16:40.759 and more of an effort to throw the FED chair 338 00:16:40.799 --> 00:16:46.080 off balance and potentially position Jerome Powell as the scapegoat 339 00:16:46.159 --> 00:16:48.200 if things don't pan. 340 00:16:48.080 --> 00:16:49.120 Out the way they should. 341 00:16:49.279 --> 00:16:50.120 I like that shirt. 342 00:16:50.240 --> 00:16:53.639 Thank you?
