WEBVTT 1 00:00:01.080 --> 00:00:04.960 You're listening to Bill Handle on demand from KFI AM 2 00:00:04.960 --> 00:00:09.880 six forty. Greetings, A good morning, pleasure being with you. 3 00:00:09.960 --> 00:00:12.800 We will talk about the latest tariffs coming up here 4 00:00:12.839 --> 00:00:18.120 at seven thirty and swatting the law in about fifteen minutes. First, 5 00:00:18.239 --> 00:00:21.039 let's let's go back to one of the biggest stories 6 00:00:21.039 --> 00:00:23.559 that we've had in a while. Call it a White 7 00:00:23.600 --> 00:00:25.760 House scandal if you want to call it a witch 8 00:00:25.839 --> 00:00:27.960 hunt if you like, as the President does. And that 9 00:00:28.039 --> 00:00:32.439 is the mixed signals we're getting. This is the signal 10 00:00:32.719 --> 00:00:36.000 group chat that was laying out plans for attack on 11 00:00:36.039 --> 00:00:42.640 the Houthi rebels in Yemen, and the National Security Advisor 12 00:00:42.960 --> 00:00:48.000 invited in a reporter from the Atlantic, which is awkward. 13 00:00:48.359 --> 00:00:54.039 So what happens now, Well, you better believe that Trump 14 00:00:54.119 --> 00:00:57.119 and many of his accolades are scrambling to figure out 15 00:00:57.159 --> 00:00:58.799 what's the angle that we can use on this in 16 00:00:58.880 --> 00:01:02.840 order to push back. Democrats are pouncing as you would expect. 17 00:01:04.480 --> 00:01:07.560 Even Jesse Kelly, who's a radio host, says, we made 18 00:01:07.560 --> 00:01:10.040 a mistake, a bad mistake for which someone should be fired. 19 00:01:10.079 --> 00:01:11.840 That said, we gave them forty eight hours of the 20 00:01:11.840 --> 00:01:13.760 news cycle with our own stupidity. No need to give 21 00:01:13.760 --> 00:01:14.959 them seventy two. It's done. 22 00:01:15.000 --> 00:01:15.319 Move on. 23 00:01:15.599 --> 00:01:19.280 It's not a life sentence. So even people who are 24 00:01:19.400 --> 00:01:21.040 part of MAGA are saying. 25 00:01:21.239 --> 00:01:22.040 Look, it's. 26 00:01:23.439 --> 00:01:23.680 Over. 27 00:01:24.879 --> 00:01:28.319 Let's just move on. Nothing to see here. Don't pay 28 00:01:28.319 --> 00:01:32.000 any attention to this. This is not a massive security breach. 29 00:01:32.239 --> 00:01:35.719 This is not a huge issue with security protocol, something 30 00:01:35.719 --> 00:01:38.519 that we threw a temper tantrum about when Hillary Clinton 31 00:01:38.560 --> 00:01:42.519 had a BlackBerry phone when she was a Secretary of State. 32 00:01:42.719 --> 00:01:46.400 Just granted it's thirteen years after that, but we don't 33 00:01:46.400 --> 00:01:48.879 worry about it. This is no big deal. 34 00:01:49.680 --> 00:01:52.760 Don't give them more of a news cycle, more of 35 00:01:52.760 --> 00:01:56.799 that US v Them approach to things. So, what's the 36 00:01:56.879 --> 00:02:00.519 latest on the fallout from the signal debacle from maybe. 37 00:02:00.560 --> 00:02:03.159 As the White House and Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth 38 00:02:03.239 --> 00:02:05.640 say no war plans were sent to a journalist on 39 00:02:05.680 --> 00:02:06.799 the messaging app Signal. 40 00:02:06.920 --> 00:02:10.560 Nobody's texting more plans because of I know exactly what 41 00:02:10.560 --> 00:02:11.000 I'm doing. 42 00:02:11.080 --> 00:02:13.680 The journalist satitor in chief of The Atlantic, Jeffrey Goldberg 43 00:02:13.719 --> 00:02:17.000 today publishing what he says Hegseth sent to President Trump's 44 00:02:17.080 --> 00:02:20.560 national security team and inadvertently him and a group message 45 00:02:20.599 --> 00:02:23.599 ahead of airstrikes in Yemen. Earlier this month, The Atlantic 46 00:02:23.639 --> 00:02:26.240 reports Hegseth notified the group of a planned timeline for 47 00:02:26.319 --> 00:02:29.759 flights of F eighteen fighter jets, MQ nine Reaper drones, 48 00:02:29.800 --> 00:02:32.439 and Tomahawk cruise missiles that were launched for the mission. 49 00:02:32.879 --> 00:02:35.240 Now, one of the things that the administration is saying 50 00:02:35.280 --> 00:02:38.840 is these are not war plans. These were battle plans. 51 00:02:39.879 --> 00:02:41.800 Oh well, that's it. 52 00:02:42.840 --> 00:02:46.800 So it's semantics. These are battle plans, not war plans. 53 00:02:46.840 --> 00:02:50.120 We're not at war. We're at battle. This is akin 54 00:02:50.240 --> 00:02:53.719 to me getting caught cheating on my wife and saying, Honey, 55 00:02:53.759 --> 00:02:56.680 I didn't have an affair. I had an entanglement. So 56 00:02:56.759 --> 00:03:00.240 what's the big deal. It's not an affair, babe, that's 57 00:03:00.280 --> 00:03:04.960 an entanglement. You shouldn't be so upset with me. It 58 00:03:05.000 --> 00:03:06.520 doesn't make a whole lot of sense. Let me Dean 59 00:03:06.639 --> 00:03:08.639 is a News Nation reporter who's been covering the story 60 00:03:08.680 --> 00:03:10.319 for a while. Let'd be great to have you on here. 61 00:03:10.840 --> 00:03:13.639 The President says, this is nothing more than a witch hunt. 62 00:03:14.479 --> 00:03:16.599 Is it something that we need to move on quickly from? 63 00:03:16.639 --> 00:03:19.400 And is it nothing more than a distraction for the 64 00:03:19.400 --> 00:03:21.960 American people from things we should really focus on, like 65 00:03:22.280 --> 00:03:25.879 are we getting enough vitamin A to fight off measles. 66 00:03:26.560 --> 00:03:28.800 I think there's a lot of concerns for Americans right now, 67 00:03:28.879 --> 00:03:30.800 and this is certainly one of them, because the new 68 00:03:30.840 --> 00:03:33.039 U Gov. Pole actually showed that seventy five percent of 69 00:03:33.080 --> 00:03:36.520 Americans are very concerned about this signal group chat, so 70 00:03:36.879 --> 00:03:38.719 that being the latest that we're in day four here, 71 00:03:38.879 --> 00:03:41.759 of course, the talk is getting a little nuanced of 72 00:03:41.800 --> 00:03:44.120 this group chat. But the reason it's continuing is because 73 00:03:44.199 --> 00:03:49.000 yesterday the Atlantic released these details the full conversation, in 74 00:03:49.080 --> 00:03:53.199 part the full conversation of what was discussed in the 75 00:03:53.199 --> 00:03:56.800 signal group chat with nineteen members of the Trump administration, 76 00:03:56.879 --> 00:03:59.479 while one of those, of course being Jeffrey Goldberg, the 77 00:03:59.560 --> 00:04:02.599 journalist from the Atlantic who was included in this. So 78 00:04:02.919 --> 00:04:04.840 of course there's a lot of concerns on that front. 79 00:04:04.879 --> 00:04:07.120 I also just spoke with the Press secretary here at 80 00:04:07.120 --> 00:04:09.680 the White House who said that they never denied the 81 00:04:09.800 --> 00:04:12.479 mistake was made when this group chat was made. Kind 82 00:04:12.479 --> 00:04:14.719 of a little bit of a messaging shift from the 83 00:04:14.719 --> 00:04:17.279 White House there rather than saying this was a witch 84 00:04:17.360 --> 00:04:19.560 hunt like President Trump was calling it yesterday. 85 00:04:20.000 --> 00:04:22.639 All right, Livy, So how many countries do we suppose 86 00:04:22.639 --> 00:04:24.720 they're trying to gain access to private phones right now 87 00:04:24.759 --> 00:04:25.120 of some. 88 00:04:25.040 --> 00:04:28.120 Of our officials, Well, I don't have a number for 89 00:04:28.199 --> 00:04:31.399 you on that. But of course national security is the 90 00:04:31.519 --> 00:04:34.439 utmost concern when it comes to this, and that's why 91 00:04:35.279 --> 00:04:39.639 intelligence officials were questioned in Congress. These hearings were already planned, 92 00:04:39.639 --> 00:04:41.560 but of course they shifted to focus all on this 93 00:04:41.639 --> 00:04:44.480 group chat. And yesterday I got very fiery in the 94 00:04:44.480 --> 00:04:48.959 House Intelligence Committee when Director of National Intelligence TLCI Gabbard, 95 00:04:49.040 --> 00:04:51.800 as well as John Ratcliffe and Cash Pttel were all 96 00:04:51.920 --> 00:04:54.360 questioned about this group chat and they ultimately admitted that 97 00:04:54.399 --> 00:04:56.839 they were a part of it, some of them overseas. 98 00:04:56.920 --> 00:04:58.759 When they were a part of this group chat. Typically 99 00:04:58.800 --> 00:05:02.279 you would find these officials operating in this sense and 100 00:05:02.319 --> 00:05:04.800 a skiffs they do say that these weren't classified things 101 00:05:04.839 --> 00:05:07.759 included in this. But if they weren't classified, why didn't 102 00:05:07.759 --> 00:05:09.000 they release them in the first place? 103 00:05:09.959 --> 00:05:12.680 And obviously they've kind of painted themselves into a corner. 104 00:05:12.680 --> 00:05:16.399 They can't be angry with UH, with Atlantic for printing 105 00:05:16.439 --> 00:05:19.720 this group chat if in fact it was not classified, right. 106 00:05:20.759 --> 00:05:22.759 Right, That's a big question in the big back and 107 00:05:22.800 --> 00:05:25.160 forth that's been going on all week. If it was 108 00:05:25.199 --> 00:05:27.360 classified or not. But you can look at the messages 109 00:05:27.399 --> 00:05:30.439 for yourself and determine your thoughts on them. But of 110 00:05:30.439 --> 00:05:33.120 course that one message from Pete heegsas the Secretary of 111 00:05:33.120 --> 00:05:35.879 Defense really stands up to me where he gives timing 112 00:05:36.120 --> 00:05:38.560 of when bombs are going to be dropped. He said 113 00:05:38.560 --> 00:05:40.639 at one point, this is definitely when the bomb is 114 00:05:40.639 --> 00:05:43.480 going to be dropped. They detailed who was being hit 115 00:05:43.560 --> 00:05:46.399 when they were hit, not something that you would typically 116 00:05:46.399 --> 00:05:48.240 expect in a signal group chat. Look, I've talked to 117 00:05:48.240 --> 00:05:50.439 Trump officials on signal before. I think this is a 118 00:05:50.560 --> 00:05:53.800 very common app that is used within the Trump world, 119 00:05:54.240 --> 00:05:56.399 but I don't think it has been used in this 120 00:05:56.519 --> 00:06:00.319 sense with a journalist privy. Who knows how many times 121 00:06:00.319 --> 00:06:02.040 it might have happened without a journalist privy. 122 00:06:02.519 --> 00:06:04.199 So that was going to be my next question. Then, 123 00:06:04.319 --> 00:06:06.680 is there any word on whether or not signal will 124 00:06:06.720 --> 00:06:09.040 be used in the future. Are we clamping down and 125 00:06:09.160 --> 00:06:12.639 using skiffs moving forward, or is anybody. 126 00:06:12.319 --> 00:06:13.439 That really interesting development? 127 00:06:13.800 --> 00:06:14.000 Yeah? 128 00:06:14.079 --> 00:06:16.079 Yeah, that was an interesting development here at the White 129 00:06:16.079 --> 00:06:18.639 House yesterday when the White House Press Secretary did a briefing, 130 00:06:18.720 --> 00:06:22.319 she said that signal is approved on government device It's 131 00:06:22.319 --> 00:06:25.600 something that I didn't even realize was the case. And 132 00:06:25.600 --> 00:06:28.720 of course they said actually that they aren't backing away 133 00:06:28.920 --> 00:06:31.680 from signal and they plan on still using it. The 134 00:06:31.720 --> 00:06:34.680 President Trump yesterday when he was speaking to the press, 135 00:06:35.000 --> 00:06:37.079 actually said that there might have been some kind of 136 00:06:37.120 --> 00:06:41.000 glitch with signal, trying to blame signal for this journalist 137 00:06:41.079 --> 00:06:44.759 being added, when Mike Waltz clearly took the blame for 138 00:06:44.879 --> 00:06:48.759 adding Jeffrey Goldberg to this chat. So signal moving forward 139 00:06:48.800 --> 00:06:51.600 definitely a question on if the Trump administration plans on 140 00:06:51.720 --> 00:06:53.959 using it. It sounds like they do at this point. 141 00:06:54.000 --> 00:06:56.800 But of course national security officials are going to have 142 00:06:56.839 --> 00:06:59.720 to be more tight lipped and not go adding journalists 143 00:06:59.759 --> 00:07:01.360 to One of the things. 144 00:07:01.160 --> 00:07:03.560 That we've heard Libby Diner, a News Nation reporter, is 145 00:07:03.600 --> 00:07:07.839 that this editor for The Atlantic was a disgraced journalist 146 00:07:08.000 --> 00:07:10.720 from a two bit magazine, that he's no good. And 147 00:07:10.720 --> 00:07:16.360 if that's the case, why why would Mike Walls, the 148 00:07:16.439 --> 00:07:19.399 National Security Advisor, have his info in his phone in. 149 00:07:19.319 --> 00:07:19.920 The first place. 150 00:07:20.920 --> 00:07:23.199 Yeah, And Mike Waltz was asked about that during an 151 00:07:23.199 --> 00:07:25.800 interview and he basically said that this was in put 152 00:07:25.800 --> 00:07:28.680 it into his phone or sucked into his phone or something, 153 00:07:28.759 --> 00:07:30.439 is how he described it. He didn't give a very 154 00:07:30.680 --> 00:07:34.360 clear description on his relationship with Jeffrey Goldberg. I saw 155 00:07:34.399 --> 00:07:37.000 that Goldberg did an interview where he also wouldn't detail 156 00:07:37.040 --> 00:07:39.720 his relationship, but he basically said, look, my phone number 157 00:07:39.959 --> 00:07:42.879 is in Mike Walltz's phone for a reason, and if 158 00:07:42.920 --> 00:07:45.439 he wants to discredit me, he can. And that is 159 00:07:45.480 --> 00:07:47.600 what the Trump administration has spent all week doing. It 160 00:07:47.639 --> 00:07:49.360 seems like they're kind of taking a shift with their 161 00:07:49.360 --> 00:07:52.360 messaging here saying that they're admitting it was a mistake, 162 00:07:52.399 --> 00:07:55.879 but also yesterday we heard them rail, and the day 163 00:07:55.879 --> 00:07:57.759 before and the day before that, we heard them rail 164 00:07:57.759 --> 00:07:59.959 against Jeffrey Goldberg. That was their main line of attack. 165 00:08:00.319 --> 00:08:02.319 We'll see if that continues throughout the day today. 166 00:08:02.560 --> 00:08:03.839 And is there any word on whether or not that 167 00:08:03.920 --> 00:08:06.360 messaging is hitting home with the with the the. 168 00:08:07.240 --> 00:08:09.360 Mag of faithful Look. 169 00:08:09.399 --> 00:08:12.639 I think that attacking the media is certainly something that 170 00:08:12.759 --> 00:08:15.360 lands with the Trump base. I think that they're very 171 00:08:15.360 --> 00:08:18.600 familiar with that kind of attack, and people can make 172 00:08:18.680 --> 00:08:21.519 up their mind on if that's credible or not. And 173 00:08:21.560 --> 00:08:24.759 Jeffrey Goldberg has criticized President Trump in the past as 174 00:08:24.800 --> 00:08:26.639 a journalist, so I think there are things to look 175 00:08:26.680 --> 00:08:29.199 into in this fact, but he was involuntarily added to 176 00:08:29.240 --> 00:08:35.000 this chat and now he's just reporting the facts and 177 00:08:35.039 --> 00:08:36.039 part of us with the chat. 178 00:08:36.159 --> 00:08:39.519 So indeed, Levy Dan, here's nation reported Lebby, thanks for 179 00:08:39.559 --> 00:08:40.720 the great reporting, Well done. 180 00:08:40.879 --> 00:08:43.799 Yeah, thank yous appreciate that. Yeah, very good. All right. 181 00:08:44.080 --> 00:08:45.519 We know that we've had a couple of high profile 182 00:08:45.600 --> 00:08:49.440 swatting incidents in southern California here and the last few 183 00:08:49.440 --> 00:08:55.679 weeks we're actually seeing a number of swatting incidences, incidents incidents. 184 00:08:57.360 --> 00:08:58.519 Growing nationwide. 185 00:08:58.879 --> 00:09:01.759 In fact, one happened to a radio host, syndicated host 186 00:09:01.759 --> 00:09:04.200 out of Texas, and the FCC. 187 00:09:04.000 --> 00:09:05.600 Chair Brendan Carr, actually got in on this. 188 00:09:06.000 --> 00:09:09.919 He was mentioning that it was politically motivated, but he 189 00:09:09.960 --> 00:09:12.639 says he called it political violence, saying that he had 190 00:09:12.679 --> 00:09:14.399 been in touch with law enforcement to ensure that they 191 00:09:14.440 --> 00:09:17.639 have access to trace back resources that locate the calls 192 00:09:18.200 --> 00:09:21.759 originating point. Bad actors will face accountability that according to 193 00:09:21.799 --> 00:09:24.840 the FCC, when it comes to some of these others 194 00:09:25.360 --> 00:09:32.600 incidences incident SI. But what about closer to home, Well, 195 00:09:32.679 --> 00:09:34.879 believe it or not, you can't do a whole lot. 196 00:09:34.919 --> 00:09:37.720 If somebody swats, and by swatting, I mean they call 197 00:09:37.720 --> 00:09:40.360 in law enforcement and they file a false claim saying oh, 198 00:09:40.360 --> 00:09:42.840 there's a bomb or something, you can't really do a 199 00:09:42.879 --> 00:09:46.360 whole lot about it if it's if it's done against 200 00:09:46.360 --> 00:09:50.039 an institution. Now, if Amy were to say that that 201 00:09:50.159 --> 00:09:52.720 Chris Merrill has a bomb, then she would be committing 202 00:09:52.759 --> 00:09:56.919 a crime. If in fact, she were to say that 203 00:09:57.720 --> 00:10:02.120 something's happening at the radio station right now in the state, 204 00:10:03.000 --> 00:10:04.879 you can't do a lot as far as prosecution goes, 205 00:10:04.919 --> 00:10:09.919 Which brings us to what we saw in Clarmont where uh, 206 00:10:10.480 --> 00:10:13.240 I mean, if you're saying it's happening at a hospital 207 00:10:13.320 --> 00:10:16.840 or a college or something of that sort, what can 208 00:10:16.919 --> 00:10:21.440 be done well? Legislators aren't tackling the matter. Cakew was reporting. 209 00:10:21.039 --> 00:10:24.279 That Claremont Peedee says the intent to prosecute the people 210 00:10:24.320 --> 00:10:27.919 who recently pulled a swatting incident here, but they're often 211 00:10:28.080 --> 00:10:31.639 hard to track down and to prosecute. They're hoping some 212 00:10:31.720 --> 00:10:36.080 new laws will change that. Massive law enforcement responses at 213 00:10:36.080 --> 00:10:40.799 both Claremont McKenna College and Lowilinda University Medical Center last 214 00:10:40.840 --> 00:10:44.480 week after two separate swatting calls or hoax at nine 215 00:10:44.519 --> 00:10:48.320 to one one reports in two days required both campuses 216 00:10:48.399 --> 00:10:49.480 to be evacuated. 217 00:10:49.840 --> 00:10:53.519 Then here there's like a potential shooter, Like yeah, yeah, 218 00:10:54.840 --> 00:10:56.840 that's It's also quite disruptive too. 219 00:10:57.559 --> 00:10:59.399 I mean, you're not just disrupting one person. You're talking 220 00:10:59.399 --> 00:11:01.919 about disrupting the operations of a hospital. 221 00:11:02.159 --> 00:11:04.799 Send students in Claremont into a panic. 222 00:11:05.120 --> 00:11:07.399 Everyone else was kind of running around and leaving campus. 223 00:11:07.759 --> 00:11:09.639 So it's definitely scary, very freaky. 224 00:11:09.720 --> 00:11:12.799 I was on the phone calling all of my friends. 225 00:11:12.639 --> 00:11:14.960 At a time when swatting calls are on the rise 226 00:11:15.000 --> 00:11:16.000 across the country. 227 00:11:16.360 --> 00:11:17.240 I just said that. 228 00:11:17.159 --> 00:11:20.919 Why are police departments here in California struggling to hold 229 00:11:20.919 --> 00:11:22.039 the suspects account of the. 230 00:11:22.200 --> 00:11:25.799 Why you can hide your regular phone number, your IP address. 231 00:11:26.000 --> 00:11:30.080 You can basically use a voiceover for you your own voice, 232 00:11:30.159 --> 00:11:33.240 so it disguises your voice. So any that type of 233 00:11:33.279 --> 00:11:35.480 evidence we're looking for is very hard to track down. 234 00:11:35.840 --> 00:11:39.200 But it's also because of California laws that require. 235 00:11:38.960 --> 00:11:41.320 At some point, speaking of disguising your voice, at some point, 236 00:11:41.360 --> 00:11:42.840 one of us is gonna get wrapped up in a 237 00:11:43.919 --> 00:11:47.000 in a legal matter. You know that, right at some 238 00:11:47.159 --> 00:11:50.519 point they're gonna they're gonna take samples of Bill's voice 239 00:11:50.639 --> 00:11:54.440 or Amy's voice, or Neil Savadra's voice, and they're gonna 240 00:11:54.519 --> 00:11:56.799 use AI to process it, and then they're gonna have 241 00:11:56.879 --> 00:12:00.200 what sounds like Neil or Amy or Bill may could 242 00:12:00.240 --> 00:12:02.360 dastardly call and. 243 00:12:02.320 --> 00:12:03.840 Then there's gonna be a knock on the door. 244 00:12:05.159 --> 00:12:07.399 Ah, yes, mister handle, we'd like to talk to you 245 00:12:07.399 --> 00:12:09.440 about a recent phone call you made. And Bill's gonna go, 246 00:12:09.480 --> 00:12:13.120 I don't even know how my cell phone works. I 247 00:12:13.159 --> 00:12:16.320 have and make the calls for me. But this is 248 00:12:16.320 --> 00:12:18.960 gonna happen. You're gonna you're gonna start getting You're gonna 249 00:12:19.000 --> 00:12:24.320 start getting uh, crank calls from Keanu Reeves, from Taylor Swift, 250 00:12:24.519 --> 00:12:26.320 You're gonna start getting crank calls from all kinds of 251 00:12:26.360 --> 00:12:30.039 celebrities whose voices have simply been emulated by AI. 252 00:12:30.879 --> 00:12:32.080 Mark my words. 253 00:12:32.559 --> 00:12:36.360 But it's also because of California laws that require perpetrators 254 00:12:36.360 --> 00:12:40.320 here to threaten specific people instead of just an entity 255 00:12:40.440 --> 00:12:43.399 like a school or a hospital in order to prosecute. 256 00:12:43.480 --> 00:12:45.000 So what do we do, Tom, Especially since ore now 257 00:12:45.039 --> 00:12:47.679 reaching across the us A, people are realizing this is 258 00:12:47.679 --> 00:12:50.159 a bigger issue than what we're actually thinking about. 259 00:12:50.360 --> 00:12:53.279 This Bill really is going to tackle that loopo where 260 00:12:53.480 --> 00:12:55.279 you don't need to mention a person and it's still 261 00:12:55.320 --> 00:12:56.000 against the law. 262 00:12:56.320 --> 00:12:59.799 Senator Susan Rubio, who represents Baldwin Park, authored a new 263 00:13:00.279 --> 00:13:04.360 built SB nineteen which allows prosecutors to charge people who 264 00:13:04.399 --> 00:13:08.000 make any credible threats of mass violence at schools, houses 265 00:13:08.039 --> 00:13:08.639 of warship. 266 00:13:10.200 --> 00:13:14.519 I mean, this one seems like a no brainer. Why 267 00:13:14.519 --> 00:13:15.360 did it take so long? 268 00:13:15.559 --> 00:13:18.840 Children deserve better, our students, our communities deserve better. So 269 00:13:18.879 --> 00:13:21.279 hopefully you know this will set a strong message. 270 00:13:21.519 --> 00:13:24.360 Students we spoke with think threats of violence should not 271 00:13:24.440 --> 00:13:26.000 be tolerated. 272 00:13:25.600 --> 00:13:27.799 If it negatively impacts the community that it affects. It 273 00:13:27.799 --> 00:13:30.559 negatively impacts the police because they could be doing a 274 00:13:30.679 --> 00:13:32.320 myriad of other things. 275 00:13:32.159 --> 00:13:34.039 And yeah, this is not a free speech issue because 276 00:13:34.039 --> 00:13:36.679 this is intended to incite immediate reaction. 277 00:13:37.600 --> 00:13:40.080 For those of you that say, well, I was my 278 00:13:40.120 --> 00:13:40.919 speech not protecting. 279 00:13:40.960 --> 00:13:45.039 No, no, this is the definition of an exception to free speech. 280 00:13:45.120 --> 00:13:49.480 It is intended to incite immediate reaction here and in 281 00:13:49.519 --> 00:13:54.080 this case violence or at the very least, disruption by 282 00:13:54.120 --> 00:13:55.000 the authorities. 283 00:13:55.320 --> 00:13:58.720 So no false threats, not okay. 284 00:13:58.840 --> 00:14:02.279 And Senator Rubio says these swatting calls often cost one 285 00:14:02.360 --> 00:14:05.840 hundred thousand dollars in police response when you factor in 286 00:14:05.919 --> 00:14:09.799 things like helicopters and getting responding agencies out to help 287 00:14:09.919 --> 00:14:13.200 clear campuses. She says it's important for parents to talk 288 00:14:13.200 --> 00:14:15.360 to their kids about how serious it is to make 289 00:14:15.399 --> 00:14:17.919 a threat. But you know, sometimes the people who do 290 00:14:17.960 --> 00:14:23.240 these swatting calls are adults reporting in claremont nicolecom Stock 291 00:14:23.600 --> 00:14:24.279 Kkel News. 292 00:14:24.360 --> 00:14:26.519 Yeah, I think oftentimes we and I'm glad you made 293 00:14:26.559 --> 00:14:28.480 that point because oftentimes I think we say, oh. 294 00:14:28.360 --> 00:14:30.799 The kids these days, here's what they're doing. I don't 295 00:14:30.840 --> 00:14:31.120 think so. 296 00:14:31.200 --> 00:14:33.440 I think sometimes you've just got some disgruntled or off 297 00:14:33.519 --> 00:14:38.840 kilter people that they're bored. They like the challenge or 298 00:14:38.879 --> 00:14:41.720 the adventure. They like to make people jump. Maybe they 299 00:14:41.840 --> 00:14:44.000 are sitting alone in their home and they feel powerless 300 00:14:44.000 --> 00:14:46.679 and this gives them some element of control. I'm sure 301 00:14:46.720 --> 00:14:50.440 there's a psychological factor to this, but either way, we've 302 00:14:50.679 --> 00:14:52.159 got to tighten the laws up so that we can 303 00:14:52.600 --> 00:14:55.240 track these people down and stop the sort of nonsense 304 00:14:55.240 --> 00:14:58.840 in the future. So if you missed it, the President 305 00:14:58.919 --> 00:15:04.159 introduced tariffs on all vehicles that are produced outside of 306 00:15:04.159 --> 00:15:08.600 the United States and tariffs on all car parts that 307 00:15:08.639 --> 00:15:11.960 are produced outside of the United States. This is going 308 00:15:11.960 --> 00:15:13.919 to have an impact. It's going to have an impact 309 00:15:13.919 --> 00:15:16.000 on the new car market, and I'm going to tell 310 00:15:16.000 --> 00:15:17.039 you in a minute that it's going to have an 311 00:15:17.039 --> 00:15:17.919 impact on the. 312 00:15:17.919 --> 00:15:19.559 Used car market as well. 313 00:15:20.080 --> 00:15:22.840 NBCLA was doing a breakdown on what this means to 314 00:15:22.840 --> 00:15:23.799 you inside. 315 00:15:23.440 --> 00:15:27.360 The Oval Office. President Trump explains what he just signed, so. 316 00:15:27.360 --> 00:15:30.440 Will effectively be charging a twenty five percent tariff. But 317 00:15:30.559 --> 00:15:32.799 if you build your car in the United States, seris 318 00:15:32.840 --> 00:15:33.399 no tariff. 319 00:15:33.440 --> 00:15:36.879 The tariff's go into effect permanently on April second, when 320 00:15:36.879 --> 00:15:39.639 it comes to trade. That's the day the President has 321 00:15:39.679 --> 00:15:42.559 referred to as Liberation Day in America. 322 00:15:42.720 --> 00:15:47.960 This is the beginning of Liberation Day in America. 323 00:15:48.159 --> 00:15:52.200 Oh wait a minute, hold on, So March twenty sixth, 324 00:15:52.720 --> 00:15:54.759 and will you just mark down March twenty six for 325 00:15:54.799 --> 00:15:59.000 our Liberation Day celebrations moving forward, Thank you, we'll just 326 00:15:59.000 --> 00:15:59.879 call it l Day. 327 00:16:00.679 --> 00:16:03.120 We're going to take back just some of the money 328 00:16:03.159 --> 00:16:06.120 that has been taken from us. 329 00:16:06.240 --> 00:16:09.840 And this is a direct attack, to be clear, a 330 00:16:09.879 --> 00:16:10.559 direct attack. 331 00:16:10.720 --> 00:16:15.000 Autos are Canada's second largest export, and tonight Prime Minister 332 00:16:15.120 --> 00:16:17.919 Carney says he will assess the details of the Trump 333 00:16:17.960 --> 00:16:20.840 decision before taking retaliatory measures. 334 00:16:21.240 --> 00:16:24.840 Oh, they're coming. There will be retaliatory measures. 335 00:16:24.759 --> 00:16:29.440 But vowing to protect hundreds of thousands of Canadian auto workers, 336 00:16:29.639 --> 00:16:30.200 we are going to. 337 00:16:30.120 --> 00:16:32.279 Stand up for Canada. We're going to be united. 338 00:16:32.399 --> 00:16:35.679 In Japan, autos make up twenty eight percent of the 339 00:16:35.679 --> 00:16:37.840 country's total exports to the US. 340 00:16:38.080 --> 00:16:40.000 Wow, I realized it was that much. 341 00:16:40.679 --> 00:16:46.480 Ichibun, Japan's Prime Minister Isshub telling lawmakers he is strongly 342 00:16:46.559 --> 00:16:50.559 requesting the US not apply these tariffs to Japan and 343 00:16:50.720 --> 00:16:54.759 is quote considering all options in response to them. President 344 00:16:54.840 --> 00:16:58.120 trum said he expects auto firms to relocate to the 345 00:16:58.200 --> 00:17:02.679 United States and build new side or expand existing ones. 346 00:17:02.799 --> 00:17:04.000 And of course there are some here. 347 00:17:04.039 --> 00:17:06.240 We know that Honda's open site, Hyundai's open the site, 348 00:17:06.480 --> 00:17:08.079 Toyota's got a plant here. 349 00:17:08.079 --> 00:17:09.519 But still parts. 350 00:17:09.240 --> 00:17:12.759 Aren't necessarily being manufactured here. In fact, many parts for 351 00:17:12.960 --> 00:17:15.640 domestic automakers are manufactured elsewhere. 352 00:17:16.240 --> 00:17:19.400 These twenty five percent terrace will almost certainly increase the 353 00:17:19.480 --> 00:17:23.000 cost consumers will pay to buy new vehicles affected by 354 00:17:23.000 --> 00:17:25.359 the duties. We wait to see how the stark market 355 00:17:25.400 --> 00:17:28.319 will react when it opens, but shares of the top 356 00:17:28.440 --> 00:17:32.799 us automakers did fall sharply in after hours trading. So 357 00:17:33.079 --> 00:17:37.440 just how will these tariffs impact you? Well, according to autoweek, 358 00:17:37.839 --> 00:17:39.079 prices will go. 359 00:17:39.079 --> 00:17:41.160 Up and be passed on to buyers. 360 00:17:41.480 --> 00:17:45.319 Autoweek says, depending on the model you purchase, expect to 361 00:17:45.400 --> 00:17:48.720 pay between four and twelve thousand dollars more. 362 00:17:49.000 --> 00:17:52.400 I'm Robert Cavosik, all right, so four and twelve thousand 363 00:17:52.400 --> 00:17:54.839 dollars more. By the way, I'm looking at the market 364 00:17:54.920 --> 00:17:58.720 right now, and the Dow is pretty flat four it 365 00:17:58.799 --> 00:18:02.440 is down four percent, so we are seeing that there 366 00:18:02.440 --> 00:18:05.119 are some some of these movers that are moving. 367 00:18:04.880 --> 00:18:05.599 In the wrong direction. 368 00:18:06.000 --> 00:18:12.559 But overall, let me see, S and P is up, no, 369 00:18:13.079 --> 00:18:16.440 slightly up, it's about flat and NASDAK is just up 370 00:18:16.839 --> 00:18:22.319 thirty five points. So what does this mean to your pocketbook? 371 00:18:22.319 --> 00:18:23.720 It means that if you want to buy a car, 372 00:18:23.759 --> 00:18:26.000 it's gonna cost you more. And that doesn't just go 373 00:18:26.039 --> 00:18:28.000 for new cars. That's gonna go for used cars too. 374 00:18:28.279 --> 00:18:32.599 And here's the logic, it's pretty basic economics. The price 375 00:18:32.599 --> 00:18:34.880 of the new cars goes up four to twelve thousand dollars, 376 00:18:35.279 --> 00:18:36.960 So you say, well, I'm not gonna give four to 377 00:18:36.960 --> 00:18:39.759 twelve thousand dollars more for that new car. I'm gonna 378 00:18:39.759 --> 00:18:45.160 buy a gently owned, a gently loved used car. 379 00:18:45.519 --> 00:18:46.039 Maybe it's a. 380 00:18:45.960 --> 00:18:49.319 Certified pre owned, doesn't matter. You're not the only one 381 00:18:49.359 --> 00:18:52.880 doing that, which means that demand for used cars goes up. 382 00:18:52.920 --> 00:18:56.039 If new cars are up four to twelve thousand dollars, 383 00:18:56.359 --> 00:18:59.200 you're gonna start looking at a gently pre owned vehicle, 384 00:18:59.480 --> 00:19:02.680 and so everybody else. If demand goes up and supply 385 00:19:02.799 --> 00:19:06.440 remains the same, then you're gonna see. 386 00:19:06.640 --> 00:19:07.559 The prices go up. 387 00:19:07.720 --> 00:19:11.960 Expect supply, however, in the used car market to decline, 388 00:19:12.559 --> 00:19:16.160 and the reason is if you are considering a new vehicle, 389 00:19:16.240 --> 00:19:17.880 but all of a sudden, that new vehicle price goes 390 00:19:17.960 --> 00:19:22.680 up four to twelve thousand dollars, you might say, let's 391 00:19:22.680 --> 00:19:24.799 see how say much longer I can push this one? 392 00:19:25.680 --> 00:19:31.039 Because there is no cost in new car payments if 393 00:19:31.039 --> 00:19:32.799 you're still driving the old car now. The old car 394 00:19:32.839 --> 00:19:35.400 costs might go up because of maintenance, but your other 395 00:19:35.440 --> 00:19:37.599 costs they don't increase. So the best way to save 396 00:19:37.680 --> 00:19:39.599 money is to not buy a new vehicle. 397 00:19:39.759 --> 00:19:40.480 The longer you. 398 00:19:40.359 --> 00:19:43.720 Make your car last, the more value you get out 399 00:19:43.720 --> 00:19:46.599 of it, and as a result, fewer cars will be 400 00:19:46.759 --> 00:19:50.119 entering into the used car market, which means supply drops 401 00:19:50.160 --> 00:19:52.000
