We're gonna 112 00:05:40.240 --> 00:05:43.040 go over there. We're gonna take all the Palestinians, move 113 00:05:43.079 --> 00:05:46.600 them out. We're gonna go and occupy. We're going to 114 00:05:46.720 --> 00:05:47.519 rebuild Gaza. 115 00:05:47.560 --> 00:05:51.519 It's gonna be the riviera of the Mediterranean area, the 116 00:05:51.560 --> 00:05:55.800 Middle East, and then it'll be an international enclave. 117 00:05:55.839 --> 00:05:59.279 It'll be Mara Gaza for everybody. 118 00:05:59.759 --> 00:06:04.680 And there's a little bit of pushback, just a little 119 00:06:04.680 --> 00:06:07.240 bit from everybody else around the world. 120 00:06:07.319 --> 00:06:09.839 He was spitballing, Yeah, that's exactly the point. 121 00:06:10.000 --> 00:06:12.759 So his press secretary came back, he said, wow, wow, 122 00:06:13.040 --> 00:06:16.519 he actually meant temporarily move out. When you think about it, 123 00:06:17.199 --> 00:06:19.720 Let's say you go home and a lot of Palestinians 124 00:06:19.720 --> 00:06:22.279 are in fact coming home to their quote neighborhood and 125 00:06:22.319 --> 00:06:26.639 all you see is rubble, and you're giving the opportunity 126 00:06:26.759 --> 00:06:31.439 to go to Jordan or Egypt, and the World Health 127 00:06:31.519 --> 00:06:35.079 Organization is setting you up with not housing, but they 128 00:06:35.120 --> 00:06:38.800 even say tenpting, but the facilities and schools, et cetera 129 00:06:38.879 --> 00:06:42.120 for the kids while they rebuild, and then you're invited back. 130 00:06:42.439 --> 00:06:43.560 I would take that offer. 131 00:06:46.439 --> 00:06:51.399 But Germany went nuts, Saudi Arabia went nuts, certainly Jordan 132 00:06:51.480 --> 00:06:53.480 and Egypt. He said, if you think you're bringing two 133 00:06:53.560 --> 00:06:56.439 million people to our side of the fence, that ain't 134 00:06:56.480 --> 00:07:01.079 going to happen. We're in for I know. I talked 135 00:07:01.120 --> 00:07:03.720 to John Decker, who is there in the room because 136 00:07:03.759 --> 00:07:08.639 he's one of the accredited. He's one of the accredited reporters. 137 00:07:08.639 --> 00:07:11.160 It's gonna be a lot of fun, Okay. 138 00:07:12.120 --> 00:07:17.319 New bird flu. Six dairy herds in Nevada tested positive 139 00:07:17.360 --> 00:07:20.000 for a new strain of the H five and one 140 00:07:20.120 --> 00:07:23.040 bird flu virus, not the same as the one that's 141 00:07:23.079 --> 00:07:27.480 been circulating around other dairy herds around the US. That 142 00:07:27.600 --> 00:07:30.879 virus is B three one three. The new strain is 143 00:07:31.000 --> 00:07:35.279 D one one and had previously been detected only in 144 00:07:35.439 --> 00:07:38.480 birds and in people who had contacted with infected birds. 145 00:07:38.560 --> 00:07:40.560 I mean you had to be close to birds. 146 00:07:40.639 --> 00:07:43.839 I mean just this side of having intimate relations with 147 00:07:43.920 --> 00:07:48.800 birds before you could catch it. Now it is spreading 148 00:07:48.839 --> 00:07:50.519 like wildflower, wild. 149 00:07:50.360 --> 00:07:53.279 Wild wild wild fire. 150 00:07:53.439 --> 00:07:56.560 Yes, you heard the phrase when pigs fly, that's changing 151 00:07:56.600 --> 00:07:57.560 to whin cows. 152 00:07:57.279 --> 00:07:59.959 Fly right over the moon. 153 00:08:00.839 --> 00:08:06.439 Elon Musk, those looking over under every little matt and 154 00:08:06.519 --> 00:08:10.800 every couch cushion. Elon Musk's department, of course and their 155 00:08:11.480 --> 00:08:16.240 representatives are at the Center Centers for Medicare and Medicaid 156 00:08:16.240 --> 00:08:20.519 Services this week and they're examining payment and contracting systems 157 00:08:20.560 --> 00:08:24.399 of the Federal Health Agency And basically they're going to 158 00:08:24.480 --> 00:08:27.439 look through everything. Oh yeah, they're looking to see if 159 00:08:27.720 --> 00:08:29.319 and you know they're going to find it. Oh yeah, 160 00:08:29.360 --> 00:08:29.920 there's plenty. 161 00:08:29.959 --> 00:08:32.600 When you have two and a half million employees at 162 00:08:32.600 --> 00:08:36.039 a budget of six trillion dollars, you think that you're 163 00:08:36.039 --> 00:08:38.600 going to find kind of some screw ups, which, by 164 00:08:38.639 --> 00:08:40.960 the way, I'm fine with the investigation, of course, I 165 00:08:41.000 --> 00:08:44.600 have no problem with the investigation. But they're firing people wholesale, 166 00:08:45.720 --> 00:08:48.039 shutting down entire departments. 167 00:08:47.480 --> 00:08:52.320 Prior to investigation. It's well, he think it's just a 168 00:08:52.360 --> 00:08:54.440 scare tactic. Nope, nope. 169 00:08:54.919 --> 00:08:57.960 I think his promise that he is going to take 170 00:08:58.000 --> 00:09:01.039 the government and shake it up and house I believe 171 00:09:01.200 --> 00:09:03.519 every word of it, and a lot of people think 172 00:09:03.559 --> 00:09:04.279 it's about time. 173 00:09:05.440 --> 00:09:08.039 It is about time. Oh it needs something. Yeah, that's it, 174 00:09:08.120 --> 00:09:09.120 and he's the one to do it. 175 00:09:10.720 --> 00:09:14.000 Amy, you can stay, but it's going to cost you 176 00:09:15.240 --> 00:09:19.039 a key. La City Council committee has rejected an effort 177 00:09:19.080 --> 00:09:24.919 to freeze the rents of tenants city wide in a 178 00:09:25.440 --> 00:09:27.440 you know, in connection with the fires. But they did 179 00:09:27.480 --> 00:09:31.039 move forward with a series of eviction protections for people 180 00:09:31.360 --> 00:09:34.960 who are affected by the fires. So it would ban 181 00:09:35.159 --> 00:09:39.159 landlords from evicting tenants for several reasons, including non payment 182 00:09:39.200 --> 00:09:41.559 of rent or if an owner wanted to move into 183 00:09:41.639 --> 00:09:45.840 a unit. Those evictions would be prohibited for a year. 184 00:09:46.120 --> 00:09:48.440 Again for people affected by the wildfires. 185 00:09:48.679 --> 00:09:51.080 I get questions all the time on handling the lot 186 00:09:51.240 --> 00:09:54.919 landlords who could not evict people for a year or 187 00:09:54.919 --> 00:09:57.399 a year and a half did not pay the rent, 188 00:09:58.360 --> 00:10:00.600 and now what do they do the rent? Well, they 189 00:10:00.639 --> 00:10:04.080 can't afford forty thousand dollars or forty five thousand dollars. 190 00:10:05.000 --> 00:10:07.320 What do I do? You go wait until they. 191 00:10:07.360 --> 00:10:09.559 Leave and go bankrupt on you and you've just sucked 192 00:10:09.600 --> 00:10:11.200 up a forty five thousand dollars loss. 193 00:10:11.279 --> 00:10:11.879 Is what they do. 194 00:10:12.519 --> 00:10:15.360 Landlords got screwed really well under this. 195 00:10:15.840 --> 00:10:19.559 And how does the government do that without putting in 196 00:10:19.559 --> 00:10:22.200 the money saying well, oh, it does it all the time. 197 00:10:22.240 --> 00:10:24.200 You can do that. You can say you don't owe 198 00:10:24.240 --> 00:10:25.240 the money you are. 199 00:10:26.039 --> 00:10:29.000 You know, there's a moratorium where I mean you owe 200 00:10:29.039 --> 00:10:30.120 the money at the end. 201 00:10:30.399 --> 00:10:30.919 They can't. 202 00:10:31.080 --> 00:10:34.519 They can't forgive the money you owe privately. They don't 203 00:10:34.559 --> 00:10:35.399 have the right to do that. 204 00:10:35.639 --> 00:10:40.639 But if they're helping the hardship of one right creating 205 00:10:40.639 --> 00:10:43.600 a hardship to the other right, they're just moving the hardship. 206 00:10:43.720 --> 00:10:44.279 That's correct. 207 00:10:44.360 --> 00:10:48.399 Landlords are the bad guys. Landlords are the bad guys. 208 00:10:48.440 --> 00:10:51.240 You own property, you are a bad, bad human being. 209 00:10:51.279 --> 00:10:55.399 And this is a city, Los Angeles, that is probably 210 00:10:55.399 --> 00:10:57.159 the most pro tenant right city. 211 00:10:57.240 --> 00:11:00.600 Santa Monica was crazy Santa Monica. 212 00:11:00.600 --> 00:11:03.480 If you were a landlord and you tried to evict 213 00:11:03.519 --> 00:11:06.240 someone and they fought it and went to court, you 214 00:11:06.279 --> 00:11:07.799 might as well get hand the tenant. The key to 215 00:11:07.840 --> 00:11:10.240 the place here, have an apartment building, It'll be cheaper 216 00:11:10.240 --> 00:11:11.320 for me to just give it to you. 217 00:11:12.480 --> 00:11:14.679 It's that bad, okay. 218 00:11:15.240 --> 00:11:20.159 California Governor Gav Newsome was in Washington, d C. Yesterday 219 00:11:20.840 --> 00:11:22.519 meeting with President Donald Trump. 220 00:11:22.600 --> 00:11:23.159 That's fun. 221 00:11:23.720 --> 00:11:27.399 Members of Congress as well helped secure additional funds to 222 00:11:27.519 --> 00:11:30.080 aid the recovery of Los Angeles following the deadly and 223 00:11:30.159 --> 00:11:31.360 destructive wildfires. 224 00:11:31.360 --> 00:11:32.679 So it's legitimate. 225 00:11:33.519 --> 00:11:36.919 He In late January, Newsom signed the two point five 226 00:11:37.159 --> 00:11:42.639 billion dollar relief package. So still looking it's expensive. I 227 00:11:42.639 --> 00:11:44.320 don't even know the numbers at this point. It's got 228 00:11:44.320 --> 00:11:46.480 to be the hundreds of billions. 229 00:11:46.039 --> 00:11:48.639 Right, well, it's certainly the tens of billions. I mean 230 00:11:48.679 --> 00:11:52.639 total damage maybe one hundred billion dollars. And Newsom went 231 00:11:52.759 --> 00:11:55.360 met with the president, you know, the enemy, and they 232 00:11:55.360 --> 00:11:56.879 have audio of that meeting. 233 00:11:57.159 --> 00:12:00.360 Please please give us some money I need. 234 00:12:00.559 --> 00:12:01.399 We did it. 235 00:12:01.720 --> 00:12:06.600 Let me put on a ring. See you can please it. Yeah. 236 00:12:06.799 --> 00:12:11.159 Parking lot to processing center. A Will Rogers State Beach 237 00:12:11.279 --> 00:12:15.720 parking lot has been designated by the EPA to be 238 00:12:15.840 --> 00:12:18.559 used as a temporary processing site for debris from the 239 00:12:18.600 --> 00:12:22.159 Palisades fire zone. The parking lot is going to be 240 00:12:22.279 --> 00:12:26.279 used as a staging area for potentially hazardous household items 241 00:12:26.320 --> 00:12:30.559 like paint, bleached asbestos, propane tanks, lithium ion batteries, all 242 00:12:30.600 --> 00:12:33.840 those things removed from the fire zone. And apparently Malibu's 243 00:12:33.879 --> 00:12:35.679 mayor and others are not too happy about that. 244 00:12:35.759 --> 00:12:38.679 No, does it matter where it goes. The neighbors are 245 00:12:38.679 --> 00:12:43.039 going to be unhappy. It's you can't win on this one. 246 00:12:43.399 --> 00:12:46.960 This is the ultimate nimbi. You how new, not in 247 00:12:46.960 --> 00:12:49.840 my backyard, not going to happen, and so lawsuits will 248 00:12:49.840 --> 00:12:53.039 be filed and just too bad. I mean, it's got 249 00:12:53.039 --> 00:12:56.200 to go someplace. And this is adjacent to the fire area. 250 00:12:57.000 --> 00:13:00.240 It's open, swide open. They have access to it. It's 251 00:13:00.279 --> 00:13:04.120 easy to get through, to separate out. It's a separation facility, 252 00:13:04.120 --> 00:13:06.320 basically an area where they take the toxics and they 253 00:13:06.320 --> 00:13:08.519 take the non toxics and what can be recycled. 254 00:13:09.240 --> 00:13:11.960 And it's got to be done. Without it, you can't 255 00:13:11.960 --> 00:13:14.320 clean up the area. So they bitch, oh no, no, no, 256 00:13:14.360 --> 00:13:16.360 not in Santam. You're moving to a new place. What's 257 00:13:16.399 --> 00:13:19.519 your backyard like, it's certainly not toxic stuff. I'll tell 258 00:13:19.519 --> 00:13:19.919 you that. 259 00:13:21.159 --> 00:13:23.120 I'd be filing I'd be the head of the line 260 00:13:23.200 --> 00:13:24.759 filing the lawsuits if it were me. 261 00:13:26.080 --> 00:13:27.720 US flu cases. 262 00:13:27.440 --> 00:13:29.759 Are peaking for the second time of the season, so 263 00:13:29.799 --> 00:13:33.039 you've got United States seeking this or seeing the second 264 00:13:33.080 --> 00:13:37.320 peak in the flu. Doctor's office visits for flu dipped 265 00:13:37.360 --> 00:13:41.159 earlier this year, and then they jumped past the previous 266 00:13:41.200 --> 00:13:43.960 season's peak at the end of last month with a 267 00:13:44.120 --> 00:13:50.519 thirty percent test positivity rate, And obviously we've got months 268 00:13:50.559 --> 00:13:53.639 to go still during for the can't wait flu season. Yeah, 269 00:13:53.679 --> 00:13:55.279 this year, I didn't get my flu shot for the 270 00:13:55.279 --> 00:13:59.679 first time in either, which is you know, and I've 271 00:13:59.720 --> 00:14:01.639 got the suppressed immune. 272 00:14:01.240 --> 00:14:04.480 System, and we're both gonna die. I'm over sixty five, 273 00:14:04.559 --> 00:14:06.559 so I'm at risk. We're both gonna die. 274 00:14:06.960 --> 00:14:08.240 Well, we're all gonna die. 275 00:14:08.279 --> 00:14:12.320 Bill, I'm talking about next week, Dark Amy, Yeah, Amy, 276 00:14:12.399 --> 00:14:15.240 come on, I like Dark Did you do a story 277 00:14:15.240 --> 00:14:18.360 this morning, Amy about how people are happier in the morning. 278 00:14:18.399 --> 00:14:19.960 You're some crapola like that? 279 00:14:20.320 --> 00:14:24.360 Yes, Oh God, and tell him how you guys both 280 00:14:24.399 --> 00:14:25.879 got mad at me today. You and Ann both got 281 00:14:25.919 --> 00:14:27.480 mad at me because I was all happy this morning. 282 00:14:27.600 --> 00:14:29.919 Yeah, that's weird. It was a good mood. Yeah. 283 00:14:30.559 --> 00:14:32.480 Yeah, Well, Amy got mad because she thought I was 284 00:14:32.519 --> 00:14:35.000 making fun of her when I smiled and said he 285 00:14:35.279 --> 00:14:38.159 when I took it from Will, thanks Will. Because nobody 286 00:14:38.200 --> 00:14:41.519 throws to the host. Everybody throws. The newspeople never get 287 00:14:41.600 --> 00:14:42.039 thrown at. 288 00:14:42.200 --> 00:14:44.080 I say that to Will every morning after our first 289 00:14:44.080 --> 00:14:47.279 little break, No, I was like, thanks Will, and. 290 00:14:47.279 --> 00:14:48.759 You know how you think you know how? You throw 291 00:14:48.799 --> 00:14:52.279 it to us? Amy? After this, thank you so much. 292 00:14:52.480 --> 00:14:55.399 After this, no one goes back to you in the studio, 293 00:14:55.879 --> 00:14:57.120 Bill Neil. 294 00:14:58.679 --> 00:15:01.240 By the way that the happy quotient you came up with, 295 00:15:01.360 --> 00:15:03.080 was that a survey that was done. 296 00:15:03.000 --> 00:15:06.919 A study published in the journal Journal B MJ Mental Health. 297 00:15:07.240 --> 00:15:10.120 They never interviewed anybody. They never in anybody here in 298 00:15:10.159 --> 00:15:14.080 the morning crew, I'll tell you that. All right, why 299 00:15:14.120 --> 00:15:15.639 don't we continue on what do you think? 300 00:15:15.799 --> 00:15:16.120 Okay? 301 00:15:17.240 --> 00:15:22.440 Funding for fireproofing so Cow schools. The LA School District 302 00:15:22.480 --> 00:15:24.559 is going to set aside two point two billion dollars 303 00:15:25.039 --> 00:15:29.279 to repair and rebuild three of the schools that were 304 00:15:29.320 --> 00:15:32.559 damaged in the Altadena area. And also they're going to 305 00:15:32.600 --> 00:15:34.440 spend some of that money, they say, to make all 306 00:15:34.480 --> 00:15:41.840 campuses more natural disaster resilient. Two schools. Superintendent Alberto Carvallo 307 00:15:41.879 --> 00:15:46.440 on Tuesday, or LA School Superintendent sorry Alberto Carvalla, also 308 00:15:46.519 --> 00:15:50.480 said that they're doing new health and safety evaluations at 309 00:15:50.639 --> 00:15:54.440 two of the campuses that were damaged by smoke and 310 00:15:54.559 --> 00:15:55.399 Pacific Palisy. 311 00:15:55.519 --> 00:15:57.360 Now can you imagine spending that much money? 312 00:15:57.679 --> 00:16:00.840 It would be much much more in expensive if they 313 00:16:00.919 --> 00:16:04.320 just increase the dropout rate, which is already astronomically high, 314 00:16:04.360 --> 00:16:07.679 and then there'd be fewer students to worry about. That 315 00:16:07.879 --> 00:16:09.960 is a knock on LAUSD by the way, where I 316 00:16:10.000 --> 00:16:10.519 went to school. 317 00:16:10.679 --> 00:16:12.960 Just wanted to share that with you. We're aware of 318 00:16:13.039 --> 00:16:15.559 their work, all right. 319 00:16:15.919 --> 00:16:19.039 Eligible federal workers must decide by eleven to fifty nine 320 00:16:19.039 --> 00:16:23.879 pm Eastern time today whether to take the Trump administration's 321 00:16:23.960 --> 00:16:27.360 deferred resignation offer. This will allow them to leave their 322 00:16:27.480 --> 00:16:30.840 jobs but be paid through the end of September. So 323 00:16:30.879 --> 00:16:34.360 at least forty thousand employees have already accepted the package. 324 00:16:35.679 --> 00:16:40.120 But there's a lot of pushback as well, and they're 325 00:16:40.200 --> 00:16:44.000 saying if this, if enough people don't take it, then 326 00:16:44.039 --> 00:16:46.080 they'll be furloughs or layoffs. 327 00:16:46.320 --> 00:16:48.480 Oh yeah, though, there's no question, and that's the reason I. 328 00:16:48.399 --> 00:16:50.240 Think you're going to see more and more people taking it, 329 00:16:51.200 --> 00:16:53.279 because you get eight months, you don't have to work, 330 00:16:53.639 --> 00:16:55.879 and the number of people taking it is my job 331 00:16:55.960 --> 00:16:57.919 going to be eliminated anyway, so I might as well 332 00:16:57.919 --> 00:16:58.279 grab it. 333 00:16:58.320 --> 00:16:58.559 Now. 334 00:16:59.519 --> 00:17:02.759 Is something out there that I'm looking at where I 335 00:17:02.799 --> 00:17:06.839 can segue right into a job in the private sector. 336 00:17:07.160 --> 00:17:10.920 But if they furloughed you, yeah, well, if they laid 337 00:17:10.960 --> 00:17:12.440 you off, wouldn't they have to give you severance? 338 00:17:12.480 --> 00:17:15.880 Anyways? I know, not eight months, No, not certainly not 339 00:17:15.960 --> 00:17:16.720 eight months. 340 00:17:17.039 --> 00:17:19.559 And I think you're free and clear, here's your eight months, 341 00:17:19.599 --> 00:17:20.480 go do whatever you want. 342 00:17:20.519 --> 00:17:22.279 You can go to work the next day for someone 343 00:17:22.279 --> 00:17:27.240 else and still because it's still yeah. 344 00:17:26.039 --> 00:17:29.039 So I see if I were in that position, I'm 345 00:17:29.079 --> 00:17:31.039 looking at the possibility being laid off, or I was 346 00:17:31.119 --> 00:17:34.559 planning on leaving and I was going to leave a 347 00:17:34.640 --> 00:17:37.000 year from now, and I had a job a possibility. 348 00:17:37.079 --> 00:17:38.559 I grabbed this in a heartbeat. 349 00:17:41.720 --> 00:17:46.279 Slip sliding away the Palace Verdes Peninsula. Of course, we've 350 00:17:46.319 --> 00:17:49.079 been talking about that because we've got neighborhoods that have 351 00:17:49.160 --> 00:17:53.440 been damaged from the slides. But NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory 352 00:17:54.119 --> 00:17:58.359 went and took a look and says that the slide's 353 00:17:58.400 --> 00:18:01.440 been moving about four inch per week. 354 00:18:01.440 --> 00:18:03.000 Per week, per week. 355 00:18:03.279 --> 00:18:07.359 Let's figure that one out per year, so that's four 356 00:18:07.359 --> 00:18:08.200 times fifty two. 357 00:18:08.279 --> 00:18:10.960 What is that figure? Two hundred? All right, so it's 358 00:18:10.960 --> 00:18:13.400 two hundred inchest? How many okay, how many feet? Is that? 359 00:18:15.079 --> 00:18:16.240 Divide by twelve? 360 00:18:16.400 --> 00:18:19.359 One hundred and forty four is twelve feet, So that's 361 00:18:19.400 --> 00:18:20.759 about what eighteen feet. 362 00:18:21.039 --> 00:18:23.279 Feet eighteen feet? So I feel like that that's eighteen 363 00:18:23.359 --> 00:18:24.279 feet a year. 364 00:18:25.240 --> 00:18:28.720 So you buy a house and if you're there at 365 00:18:28.720 --> 00:18:32.240 the bluff, we's going away. Next year, it's eighteen feet 366 00:18:32.720 --> 00:18:35.839 closer to the water slipping down. The year after that, 367 00:18:35.920 --> 00:18:39.440 it's another eighteen feet. Maybe this is not the time 368 00:18:39.480 --> 00:18:41.359 to buy a house near there. I wouldn't buy a 369 00:18:41.359 --> 00:18:43.400 house in Malibu along the water because you're going to 370 00:18:43.440 --> 00:18:46.160 be in one of those homes like Louisiana stilled homes 371 00:18:46.200 --> 00:18:48.559 to the buyou that's what it's going to look like. 372 00:18:50.680 --> 00:18:52.440 All right. This is an interesting story. 373 00:18:52.480 --> 00:18:56.279 The portion of Americans satisfied with the overall you know, 374 00:18:56.559 --> 00:19:00.319 nation's attitude towards gay and lesbian people, and the US 375 00:19:00.440 --> 00:19:03.079 has dipped the lowest levels in more than a decade. 376 00:19:03.880 --> 00:19:05.240 So it's. 377 00:19:06.640 --> 00:19:09.720 You go back and you know, according to the survey, 378 00:19:09.759 --> 00:19:12.480 fifty one percent of Americans say they're satisfied with national 379 00:19:12.559 --> 00:19:20.799 attitudes towards the LGBTQ plus community, but it's been dropping, 380 00:19:21.200 --> 00:19:24.599 I guess in the past couple of years. And the 381 00:19:24.720 --> 00:19:28.920 results reflect differences along partisan line. So of those who FI, 382 00:19:29.599 --> 00:19:32.519 of those who identify or lean, Republicans say they were 383 00:19:32.559 --> 00:19:37.240 satisfied with levels of acceptance, and then comparing with forty 384 00:19:37.240 --> 00:19:41.359 three percent of those that identify as Democrat. 385 00:19:41.160 --> 00:19:44.599 Less than satisfied. They wanted more levels of acceptance. 386 00:19:44.680 --> 00:19:47.160 Yes, so it's dipping. Yeah, a couple way. I'll tell 387 00:19:47.160 --> 00:19:47.559 you why. 388 00:19:48.039 --> 00:19:49.920 Okay, First of all, this has a lot to do 389 00:19:50.160 --> 00:19:53.880 with Biden and the Democrats and why Donald Trump got 390 00:19:53.880 --> 00:19:58.759 elected because Biden and the Democrats made a huge deal 391 00:19:58.960 --> 00:20:03.880 of LGBT rights, more than inflation. That was more important, 392 00:20:04.000 --> 00:20:07.920 more important than immigration. They just read it wrong. They 393 00:20:08.079 --> 00:20:10.680 just read it wrong. And this is why I think 394 00:20:10.720 --> 00:20:12.720 one of the major reasons Republicans did as well. 395 00:20:12.720 --> 00:20:13.039 They did. 396 00:20:13.079 --> 00:20:16.000 They pick up seats in the Senate, they did okay 397 00:20:16.079 --> 00:20:17.400 in the House, and of course they picked up the 398 00:20:17.440 --> 00:20:22.160 presidency and the and you now have a White House, 399 00:20:22.640 --> 00:20:25.839 you have a Congress that is for the most part 400 00:20:25.880 --> 00:20:33.880 anti LGP, anti LGPT right LGP, MF few or exactly. 401 00:20:34.400 --> 00:20:37.599
