00:01:51.719 --> 00:01:55.359
<v Speaker 1>for that one for a real long time. All right. Oh,

32
00:01:55.359 --> 00:01:57.760
<v Speaker 1>we got a lot to cover today, some insane stuff.

33
00:01:58.400 --> 00:02:02.079
<v Speaker 1>As I have been saying, it's we're going to talk

34
00:02:02.120 --> 00:02:05.599
<v Speaker 1>about Trump. I think more over the next four years

35
00:02:05.879 --> 00:02:09.800
<v Speaker 1>than any other president we ever have talked about or

36
00:02:09.879 --> 00:02:14.400
<v Speaker 1>ever will talk about. And so there's a whole bunch

37
00:02:14.439 --> 00:02:17.000
<v Speaker 1>of new things going on in the Trump world and

38
00:02:17.159 --> 00:02:20.840
<v Speaker 1>our world. And I actually know people. I was talking

39
00:02:20.879 --> 00:02:24.360
<v Speaker 1>to someone that's pretty close to me and we had

40
00:02:24.400 --> 00:02:28.159
<v Speaker 1>a meeting set up, and she said, she's going to India.

41
00:02:28.680 --> 00:02:32.080
<v Speaker 1>I go India. She said, Yeah. The first time Trump

42
00:02:32.120 --> 00:02:33.840
<v Speaker 1>was elected, I had to get out of there. I'm

43
00:02:33.879 --> 00:02:36.280
<v Speaker 1>going to India, and I went to India. Now I'm

44
00:02:36.319 --> 00:02:42.960
<v Speaker 1>celebrating the sex the second election. I'm going to India. Okay,

45
00:02:44.120 --> 00:02:50.080
<v Speaker 1>why India? I have no idea, no idea. Okay, you

46
00:02:50.159 --> 00:02:52.400
<v Speaker 1>can give me the perplexed Look.

47
00:02:52.759 --> 00:02:54.159
<v Speaker 2>What happened last time?

48
00:02:54.199 --> 00:02:56.319
<v Speaker 1>He was I just wanted to share it. Now, it's nothing.

49
00:02:56.319 --> 00:02:58.599
<v Speaker 1>I was just in conversation with her and she had

50
00:02:58.680 --> 00:03:02.039
<v Speaker 1>mentioned that, that's all, and that was connected to we're

51
00:03:02.039 --> 00:03:04.479
<v Speaker 1>going to talk more about Trump than any other president

52
00:03:05.000 --> 00:03:09.560
<v Speaker 1>ever have ever will Okay, fair enough, matter of fact,

53
00:03:09.960 --> 00:03:15.000
<v Speaker 1>That's exactly what we open our news news hour with.

54
00:03:15.240 --> 00:03:18.159
<v Speaker 1>It's time for Handle on the News, Michael Monks and

55
00:03:18.199 --> 00:03:22.240
<v Speaker 1>for Amy Neil and me lead story. I once loved

56
00:03:22.240 --> 00:03:23.800
<v Speaker 1>a woman a child.

57
00:03:24.000 --> 00:03:24.639
<v Speaker 4>I'm too.

58
00:03:25.520 --> 00:03:28.960
<v Speaker 2>I give him my heart, but she wanted my soul.

59
00:03:29.520 --> 00:03:33.360
<v Speaker 1>How does that work? Elmer? How do you connect that

60
00:03:33.560 --> 00:03:35.919
<v Speaker 1>music to this story? I have a question about that.

61
00:03:37.319 --> 00:03:39.800
<v Speaker 3>I was looking for songs about like getting fired from work,

62
00:03:39.800 --> 00:03:41.560
<v Speaker 3>and this is like the main one.

63
00:03:41.919 --> 00:03:45.039
<v Speaker 1>All right, all right, anyway, guests who got fired from work?

64
00:03:45.039 --> 00:03:49.680
<v Speaker 1>As Elmer just said, Trump, Oh, here's a shocker. Fired

65
00:03:50.599 --> 00:03:57.479
<v Speaker 1>the prosecutors who prosecuted him during the last cycle, the

66
00:03:57.520 --> 00:04:00.800
<v Speaker 1>election or the actually it was doing the election cycle

67
00:04:00.840 --> 00:04:04.360
<v Speaker 1>where Trump ended up winning. So he said, they're all gone,

68
00:04:04.719 --> 00:04:07.599
<v Speaker 1>and you know what happens. They're all gone. And these

69
00:04:07.599 --> 00:04:11.879
<v Speaker 1>are career prosecutors. And I'm hearing the liberal media get

70
00:04:12.199 --> 00:04:15.439
<v Speaker 1>pretty upset about My god. These are career prosecutors. They

71
00:04:15.439 --> 00:04:18.560
<v Speaker 1>were only doing their job. Trump shouldn't have done that.

72
00:04:19.199 --> 00:04:21.480
<v Speaker 1>These were the guys that were trying to put him

73
00:04:21.519 --> 00:04:25.959
<v Speaker 1>in jail. He is now the president. What would you do?

74
00:04:26.759 --> 00:04:30.000
<v Speaker 1>I'd fire their asses immediately too, That's what I would do.

75
00:04:31.360 --> 00:04:36.439
<v Speaker 1>So they're gone. And they were told by the acting

76
00:04:36.519 --> 00:04:41.399
<v Speaker 1>Attorney General saying, you know, I just don't believe you,

77
00:04:41.639 --> 00:04:45.240
<v Speaker 1>or he said in a statement, he didn't believe that

78
00:04:45.279 --> 00:04:48.560
<v Speaker 1>these officials could be trusted to faithfully implement the president's

79
00:04:48.600 --> 00:04:52.160
<v Speaker 1>agenda because of their significant role in prosecuting the president.

80
00:04:52.720 --> 00:04:55.720
<v Speaker 1>Now those that are defending them are saying, well, yeah,

81
00:04:55.959 --> 00:04:59.160
<v Speaker 1>they just follow the law and they'll prosecute anybody in

82
00:04:59.199 --> 00:05:01.920
<v Speaker 1>which an indict has been brought forward, although they're the

83
00:05:01.959 --> 00:05:04.600
<v Speaker 1>ones that brought the indictment. So you know, what do

84
00:05:04.639 --> 00:05:07.040
<v Speaker 1>you do with that? You know, is that wrong? Maybe?

85
00:05:07.079 --> 00:05:11.759
<v Speaker 1>Would I do that? Yes? Absolutely all right.

86
00:05:11.920 --> 00:05:14.079
<v Speaker 4>I think at some point we will be able to

87
00:05:14.240 --> 00:05:19.959
<v Speaker 4>study the OPRAH to MAGA pipeline. Because we had doctor Oz,

88
00:05:20.040 --> 00:05:22.079
<v Speaker 4>now we have doctor Phil. I'm wondering if anybody has

89
00:05:22.120 --> 00:05:24.759
<v Speaker 4>seen Nate Burkis lately. I haven't heard from him. Maybe

90
00:05:24.759 --> 00:05:27.199
<v Speaker 4>he's decorating the White House these days. But if you've

91
00:05:27.199 --> 00:05:30.600
<v Speaker 4>seen videos of some of these immigration enforcement efforts around

92
00:05:30.600 --> 00:05:32.560
<v Speaker 4>the country, you might have seen a guy named doctor

93
00:05:32.600 --> 00:05:35.920
<v Speaker 4>Phil McGraw show up in them. I'll note that he

94
00:05:36.000 --> 00:05:39.639
<v Speaker 4>posted a video on his own ex profile where he

95
00:05:39.720 --> 00:05:42.560
<v Speaker 4>is seen talking to a guy in handcuffs and this

96
00:05:42.639 --> 00:05:45.279
<v Speaker 4>guy asked for a lawyer, and then his next question

97
00:05:45.399 --> 00:05:47.199
<v Speaker 4>is are you doctor Phil?

98
00:05:47.839 --> 00:05:48.639
<v Speaker 2>What do you think, Phil?

99
00:05:50.240 --> 00:05:53.519
<v Speaker 1>What do I think? What doctor Phil said? He probably said,

100
00:05:53.519 --> 00:05:56.879
<v Speaker 1>And by the way, how do you feel about being deported? Uh?

101
00:05:57.439 --> 00:06:00.319
<v Speaker 1>Is it really bothering you? Are you coping with this

102
00:06:00.600 --> 00:06:03.920
<v Speaker 1>very well? You need to take a dip in like

103
00:06:04.160 --> 00:06:10.560
<v Speaker 1>you Uh yeah, he embedded It was embedded in an

104
00:06:10.600 --> 00:06:14.519
<v Speaker 1>ice action. Sure, why not? Now, I didn't know that

105
00:06:15.279 --> 00:06:18.160
<v Speaker 1>Phil mcgrah is connected with Trump. It's it's news to me.

106
00:06:18.240 --> 00:06:20.439
<v Speaker 1>And maybe I just think, Okay, I didn't, you know,

107
00:06:20.480 --> 00:06:23.319
<v Speaker 1>that's just something I don't know. Uh So he is

108
00:06:23.360 --> 00:06:24.519
<v Speaker 1>he's a trumpst Well.

109
00:06:24.360 --> 00:06:26.839
<v Speaker 4>He spoke at that that rally that Trump had at

110
00:06:26.839 --> 00:06:27.519
<v Speaker 4>Madison Square.

111
00:06:27.560 --> 00:06:29.360
<v Speaker 1>Guard Oh you know what, And I didn't. I didn't

112
00:06:29.360 --> 00:06:30.920
<v Speaker 1>see that part of it. Okay, fair enough?

113
00:06:30.920 --> 00:06:34.639
<v Speaker 5>Oprah likes those that now are on the side of

114
00:06:34.720 --> 00:06:38.800
<v Speaker 5>Maga and then those that are now in prison for rape.

115
00:06:39.360 --> 00:06:41.920
<v Speaker 2>You know Oprah and I thought Oprah was a liberal.

116
00:06:42.160 --> 00:06:44.959
<v Speaker 4>I thought Oprah Oprah is but she has platform folks

117
00:06:44.959 --> 00:06:46.600
<v Speaker 4>who have taken any different.

118
00:06:46.319 --> 00:06:51.480
<v Speaker 1>Political German and uh, that's just doctor Oz again, a

119
00:06:51.600 --> 00:06:54.639
<v Speaker 1>super conservative who came out of the Oprah world.

120
00:06:54.959 --> 00:06:58.040
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, that's what I'm saying. Where's that designer guy, Nate Burkis?

121
00:06:58.079 --> 00:07:00.680
<v Speaker 1>I mean, yeah, why all right, go ahead and take

122
00:07:00.680 --> 00:07:03.079
<v Speaker 1>a break. See rounding up? Got it out here? We

123
00:07:03.120 --> 00:07:06.399
<v Speaker 1>have another Trump story. A lot of this is really strange.

124
00:07:06.399 --> 00:07:09.560
<v Speaker 1>Some of it absolutely as I said yesterday. You know,

125
00:07:09.720 --> 00:07:14.959
<v Speaker 1>some of the positions at the Trump administration is taking

126
00:07:15.199 --> 00:07:21.279
<v Speaker 1>you may disagree with, but is understandable. There's a logic

127
00:07:21.360 --> 00:07:24.959
<v Speaker 1>to it. It's a political view. A few are just

128
00:07:25.600 --> 00:07:30.000
<v Speaker 1>like insane. Next one coming up right there in the

129
00:07:30.079 --> 00:07:30.920
<v Speaker 1>crazy World.

130
00:07:32.600 --> 00:07:36.480
<v Speaker 3>You're listening to Bill Handle on demand from KFI AM

131
00:07:36.480 --> 00:07:37.079
<v Speaker 3>six forty.

132
00:07:39.040 --> 00:07:41.079
<v Speaker 1>Let me tell you what we're doing every Friday now.

133
00:07:41.240 --> 00:07:44.279
<v Speaker 1>It's Ask Handle Anything. It's a fairly new segment and

134
00:07:44.639 --> 00:07:47.519
<v Speaker 1>we are doing this just to embarrass me. And what

135
00:07:47.560 --> 00:07:50.839
<v Speaker 1>you do is you record a question, any kind of

136
00:07:50.839 --> 00:07:52.959
<v Speaker 1>a question. I generally answer it and try to get

137
00:07:52.959 --> 00:07:54.959
<v Speaker 1>a little bit out of the box. So here's how

138
00:07:55.000 --> 00:07:57.199
<v Speaker 1>you do it. You go to the iHeart app while

139
00:07:57.240 --> 00:08:00.160
<v Speaker 1>this show is broadcasting. Go to the KFI paie each

140
00:08:00.199 --> 00:08:02.839
<v Speaker 1>At the top of the KFI page, there is a

141
00:08:02.920 --> 00:08:05.839
<v Speaker 1>microphone in the upp right hand corner. Press on that

142
00:08:05.879 --> 00:08:09.959
<v Speaker 1>microphone and you have fifteen seconds which to ask me

143
00:08:10.199 --> 00:08:13.480
<v Speaker 1>a question and make it a little bit different. And

144
00:08:13.519 --> 00:08:16.399
<v Speaker 1>then I honestly tell you what the answer is. And

145
00:08:16.600 --> 00:08:19.000
<v Speaker 1>people are enjoying it, and it's all about humiliating me.

146
00:08:19.160 --> 00:08:21.399
<v Speaker 1>So you know we're gonna do it for a while.

147
00:08:22.000 --> 00:08:24.920
<v Speaker 1>And so that happens on Friday, by the way, when

148
00:08:24.959 --> 00:08:28.920
<v Speaker 1>we broadcasted the eight thirty segment and Neil and Ann

149
00:08:29.360 --> 00:08:32.759
<v Speaker 1>choose the questions. I don't know what they are until

150
00:08:33.159 --> 00:08:34.879
<v Speaker 1>you hear them and I hear them at the same time.

151
00:08:35.080 --> 00:08:38.279
<v Speaker 1>So ask handle anything, go to the iHeart app. All right,

152
00:08:38.360 --> 00:08:38.759
<v Speaker 1>let's do it.

153
00:08:38.799 --> 00:08:42.159
<v Speaker 5>You know what, I'll help people really quickly. He's no

154
00:08:42.240 --> 00:08:46.200
<v Speaker 5>longer in the Persian Palace. Yes he's getting married. No

155
00:08:46.360 --> 00:08:54.360
<v Speaker 5>legal questions. Oh and the podcast was just too much. Okay,

156
00:08:54.639 --> 00:08:56.600
<v Speaker 5>anything outside of those you're fine.

157
00:08:56.440 --> 00:09:01.679
<v Speaker 1>Yes, the you know what I am? You know what background,

158
00:09:02.080 --> 00:09:04.759
<v Speaker 1>what ethnicity, I'm a member of the size of the member,

159
00:09:05.720 --> 00:09:07.919
<v Speaker 1>which has a lot to do with the ethnicity and

160
00:09:07.960 --> 00:09:11.559
<v Speaker 1>the religious background. It's all really connected. Okay, back we

161
00:09:11.559 --> 00:09:15.679
<v Speaker 1>go more Handle on the news with White Jiggy Boy,

162
00:09:16.480 --> 00:09:20.159
<v Speaker 1>Michael Monks, Neil Savedra and me.

163
00:09:21.360 --> 00:09:24.600
<v Speaker 5>A US Center for Disease Control and Prevention official sent

164
00:09:24.639 --> 00:09:29.320
<v Speaker 5>a memo to senior leaders at the agency on Sunday night,

165
00:09:29.399 --> 00:09:33.000
<v Speaker 5>telling them that all staff who work with the WHO

166
00:09:34.399 --> 00:09:37.879
<v Speaker 5>must immediately stop their collaborations and wait for their guidance.

167
00:09:37.879 --> 00:09:39.840
<v Speaker 2>And they said what, and they said who, and then

168
00:09:39.879 --> 00:09:40.840
<v Speaker 2>they went third.

169
00:09:40.559 --> 00:09:45.399
<v Speaker 1>Base, right, and then they played a Who's song. Yeah, great,

170
00:09:45.480 --> 00:09:48.320
<v Speaker 1>great band. I'm going to do more about this at

171
00:09:48.320 --> 00:09:51.840
<v Speaker 1>eight thirty because this is one of those where I

172
00:09:51.840 --> 00:09:54.080
<v Speaker 1>had mentioned before we had gone to break that there's

173
00:09:54.120 --> 00:09:56.279
<v Speaker 1>things that are going on with the administration you can

174
00:09:56.320 --> 00:09:58.960
<v Speaker 1>completely disagree with, but there's a logic, and then there's

175
00:09:59.000 --> 00:10:01.600
<v Speaker 1>other stuff that makes no sense.

176
00:10:02.120 --> 00:10:05.679
<v Speaker 2>This is in the latter category. All right, how about

177
00:10:05.720 --> 00:10:06.000
<v Speaker 2>this one?

178
00:10:06.320 --> 00:10:11.200
<v Speaker 4>All federal grants and loan disbursement has been paused by

179
00:10:11.720 --> 00:10:15.080
<v Speaker 4>the White House, So the federal agencies now must temporarily

180
00:10:15.120 --> 00:10:19.360
<v Speaker 4>pause all activities related to obligation or disbursement of all

181
00:10:19.639 --> 00:10:23.879
<v Speaker 4>federal financial assistance. And this is a pause that also

182
00:10:23.919 --> 00:10:25.840
<v Speaker 4>blocks the issuance of new grants that could be a

183
00:10:25.879 --> 00:10:28.039
<v Speaker 4>problem for people, governments, businesses.

184
00:10:30.480 --> 00:10:34.200
<v Speaker 1>Now, this does not necessarily mean that all that all

185
00:10:34.240 --> 00:10:37.879
<v Speaker 1>grants will in fact be eliminated, because it is a

186
00:10:37.879 --> 00:10:41.360
<v Speaker 1>pause while they figure this out. But this is an

187
00:10:41.440 --> 00:10:45.960
<v Speaker 1>insane amount of money. And Trump, he ran on the

188
00:10:46.000 --> 00:10:49.600
<v Speaker 1>promise that he was going to rip up the government

189
00:10:50.320 --> 00:10:54.000
<v Speaker 1>and he's doing that because people don't trust the government.

190
00:10:54.799 --> 00:10:58.240
<v Speaker 1>They trust him not to trust the government. And he

191
00:10:58.600 --> 00:11:02.360
<v Speaker 1>is a president, our president, who has come in on

192
00:11:02.399 --> 00:11:05.639
<v Speaker 1>the promise that it's all going to be blown up

193
00:11:05.919 --> 00:11:09.879
<v Speaker 1>and start from scratch again. And it's happening. It is happening.

194
00:11:12.679 --> 00:11:15.679
<v Speaker 5>This is my rifle, this is my gun. This one's

195
00:11:15.679 --> 00:11:19.639
<v Speaker 5>for killing, this one's for fun. Maybe that won't be heard.

196
00:11:19.720 --> 00:11:20.960
<v Speaker 1>And that's a woman saying that.

197
00:11:21.200 --> 00:11:22.919
<v Speaker 2>Yeah. President Trump.

198
00:11:24.200 --> 00:11:27.919
<v Speaker 5>On Monday, Wow announced that he had signed four executive

199
00:11:28.039 --> 00:11:32.360
<v Speaker 5>orders that will reshape the military, including banning transgender service

200
00:11:32.399 --> 00:11:36.159
<v Speaker 5>members from service in the US Armed Forces, getting the

201
00:11:36.200 --> 00:11:41.559
<v Speaker 5>military's diversity, equity and inclusion programs gutting them rather, and

202
00:11:41.639 --> 00:11:46.759
<v Speaker 5>reinstating with backpay service members who were discharged for refusing.

203
00:11:46.320 --> 00:11:50.200
<v Speaker 2>To get vaccinated from COVID nineteen. Why would you care

204
00:11:50.200 --> 00:11:53.720
<v Speaker 2>if somebody was transgender in the military.

205
00:11:53.360 --> 00:11:58.080
<v Speaker 1>Because if you are transgender per se, there was something

206
00:11:58.120 --> 00:12:03.120
<v Speaker 1>wrong with you. That's for starters. Second of all, that

207
00:12:03.320 --> 00:12:07.679
<v Speaker 1>it's an issue of our people in the LGBTQ community,

208
00:12:07.759 --> 00:12:10.679
<v Speaker 1>and specifically transgender who get the most grief of all.

209
00:12:11.559 --> 00:12:14.799
<v Speaker 1>Do they want equal rights or do they want more rights?

210
00:12:15.679 --> 00:12:19.879
<v Speaker 1>And the issue among conservatives they shouldn't exist at all.

211
00:12:21.200 --> 00:12:24.799
<v Speaker 1>It's one of those things that our country it doesn't matter,

212
00:12:25.360 --> 00:12:27.919
<v Speaker 1>it doesn't it doesn't matter, it doesn't matter. There is

213
00:12:28.000 --> 00:12:35.600
<v Speaker 1>a whole underlying issue against this weird, crazy, demented, perverse

214
00:12:35.679 --> 00:12:38.879
<v Speaker 1>way of living. If someone wants to be a transgender

215
00:12:38.960 --> 00:12:42.720
<v Speaker 1>and we don't want them folks in our military. Just

216
00:12:42.960 --> 00:12:45.759
<v Speaker 1>if you were born a man, you're a man. If

217
00:12:45.799 --> 00:12:48.600
<v Speaker 1>you're a woman, you're a woman. And never the twain

218
00:12:48.679 --> 00:12:50.120
<v Speaker 1>shall meet.

219
00:12:50.600 --> 00:12:54.519
<v Speaker 2>Absolutely that female do meet.

220
00:12:54.720 --> 00:12:56.759
<v Speaker 4>Babies are made at some bars, not all bars, I

221
00:12:56.759 --> 00:13:01.799
<v Speaker 4>should point out in the pursuit of equality. Israel has

222
00:13:01.960 --> 00:13:05.320
<v Speaker 4>reported to death of some hostages during the seasfire that's

223
00:13:05.360 --> 00:13:08.679
<v Speaker 4>going on after that fifteen month long war between Hamas

224
00:13:08.840 --> 00:13:09.679
<v Speaker 4>and Israel.

225
00:13:09.960 --> 00:13:13.559
<v Speaker 2>They say that eight of those hostages.

226
00:13:13.039 --> 00:13:17.639
<v Speaker 4>Have died and dozens remain in captivity still. So I

227
00:13:17.679 --> 00:13:20.200
<v Speaker 4>don't know what this means for that situation over there

228
00:13:20.320 --> 00:13:21.320
<v Speaker 4>was this expected bill.

229
00:13:21.639 --> 00:13:26.399
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, yeah, they knew there were a group of dead Israelis.

230
00:13:26.799 --> 00:13:29.320
<v Speaker 1>We don't know about Americans if they're still around. There's

231
00:13:29.320 --> 00:13:32.159
<v Speaker 1>still three or four Americans left. But one of the

232
00:13:32.200 --> 00:13:35.399
<v Speaker 1>things that Hamas, as gracious and wonderful as it is,

233
00:13:35.919 --> 00:13:39.639
<v Speaker 1>not only took live hostages, but also dragged back bodies

234
00:13:39.919 --> 00:13:43.960
<v Speaker 1>of Israelis that they had killed and or they kept

235
00:13:43.960 --> 00:13:47.879
<v Speaker 1>the bodies of Israelis that they executed while they were

236
00:13:47.879 --> 00:13:53.120
<v Speaker 1>in captivity. And that's part of their negotiating. Will give

237
00:13:53.159 --> 00:13:56.440
<v Speaker 1>you back bodies for the families to bury if you

238
00:13:56.639 --> 00:14:00.960
<v Speaker 1>give us, in this case Palestinian prisoners, or get out

239
00:14:01.080 --> 00:14:05.360
<v Speaker 1>of out of Gaza, or stop the war, all all

240
00:14:05.399 --> 00:14:11.039
<v Speaker 1>the things that they want, including now human humanitarian aid.

241
00:14:11.720 --> 00:14:13.679
<v Speaker 1>A lot of people think this is not going to last.

242
00:14:14.480 --> 00:14:16.720
<v Speaker 1>This is not going to last because both sides. You

243
00:14:16.799 --> 00:14:20.720
<v Speaker 1>got Hamas, which has declared victory. By the way, I

244
00:14:20.759 --> 00:14:22.480
<v Speaker 1>thought they weren't they need to make that big a

245
00:14:22.519 --> 00:14:25.000
<v Speaker 1>deal about it. But they have declared victory. They have

246
00:14:25.080 --> 00:14:31.120
<v Speaker 1>won this war. Just look at Northern Gaza and they

247
00:14:32.279 --> 00:14:35.639
<v Speaker 1>but they're intransigent. The Nittanyahu government is the most pro

248
00:14:35.919 --> 00:14:40.679
<v Speaker 1>war government that Israel has ever had, and so it is.

249
00:14:40.879 --> 00:14:44.840
<v Speaker 1>It's tough. It's tough, but you're going to see not

250
00:14:44.919 --> 00:14:47.480
<v Speaker 1>a huge number, but a large number of the remaining hostages,

251
00:14:47.480 --> 00:14:49.360
<v Speaker 1>about one hundred of them that are dead, and the

252
00:14:49.399 --> 00:14:50.759
<v Speaker 1>bodies will be handed over.

253
00:14:52.039 --> 00:14:55.919
<v Speaker 3>You're listening to Bill Handle on demand from KFI AM

254
00:14:55.960 --> 00:14:56.480
<v Speaker 3>six forty.

255
00:14:58.200 --> 00:15:02.080
<v Speaker 1>We continue with Handle on the news Michael Monkson for

256
00:15:02.200 --> 00:15:03.679
<v Speaker 1>Amy neil Me.

257
00:15:05.000 --> 00:15:09.960
<v Speaker 5>All Right, the Central Intelligence Agency has assessed that the

258
00:15:09.960 --> 00:15:13.639
<v Speaker 5>COVID nineteen pandemic is more likely to have emerged from

259
00:15:13.639 --> 00:15:18.559
<v Speaker 5>a lab than from nature. This came out on Saturday.

260
00:15:18.639 --> 00:15:23.159
<v Speaker 5>The agency kind of didn't really land or come to

261
00:15:23.240 --> 00:15:28.159
<v Speaker 5>a conclusion for a long time for the COVID nineteen

262
00:15:28.559 --> 00:15:30.720
<v Speaker 5>and whether it was a result of a lab incident

263
00:15:30.840 --> 00:15:35.879
<v Speaker 5>or not. But final weeks of the Biden administration for

264
00:15:35.879 --> 00:15:40.919
<v Speaker 5>former CIA director William Burns asked CIA analysis to kind

265
00:15:40.919 --> 00:15:43.279
<v Speaker 5>of and the scientist to make a clear determination.

266
00:15:43.440 --> 00:15:47.600
<v Speaker 2>So they did. But it's they say it's with low confidence.

267
00:15:47.679 --> 00:15:52.519
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, that's analysis by the CIA. Whenever they bring up intelligence,

268
00:15:52.600 --> 00:15:58.679
<v Speaker 1>it's confidence level low confidence, medium confidence. When Osama bin

269
00:15:58.759 --> 00:16:03.919
<v Speaker 1>Laden was killed, and Leon Panetta, who was Chief of Staff,

270
00:16:04.480 --> 00:16:08.320
<v Speaker 1>brought forward to the president the choice do we do

271
00:16:08.360 --> 00:16:11.240
<v Speaker 1>we go after bin Laden or not? Uh? The C

272
00:16:11.279 --> 00:16:14.519
<v Speaker 1>I I. The CIA produces its intelligence and they had

273
00:16:14.559 --> 00:16:20.240
<v Speaker 1>with high confidence that Obama was there, UHC, that Osama

274
00:16:20.240 --> 00:16:24.559
<v Speaker 1>bin Laden was there about his ford Pakistan. So it's

275
00:16:24.559 --> 00:16:27.279
<v Speaker 1>that's how they do it. It's not there, it is there,

276
00:16:27.320 --> 00:16:29.879
<v Speaker 1>it's going its levels of confidence. So this is low

277
00:16:30.200 --> 00:16:33.679
<v Speaker 1>levels of confidence, which what the hell does that mean?

278
00:16:33.840 --> 00:16:36.000
<v Speaker 5>It's well, it means that they if they had a

279
00:16:36.120 --> 00:16:38.879
<v Speaker 5>gun to the head, that's what they're leaning towards it.

280
00:16:39.240 --> 00:16:44.600
<v Speaker 1>Say maybe who knows, I don't know, but yeah, if

281
00:16:44.639 --> 00:16:47.120
<v Speaker 1>I had to guess, I'll go here instead of there.

282
00:16:48.480 --> 00:16:52.200
<v Speaker 4>There's been an interesting shift in Republican and conservative politics

283
00:16:52.240 --> 00:16:54.679
<v Speaker 4>because we just noted a story a few moments ago

284
00:16:54.960 --> 00:17:00.559
<v Speaker 4>about trans military service people, and I think that any

285
00:17:00.679 --> 00:17:06.039
<v Speaker 4>type of Republican backlash against LGBT, it's really primarily focused

286
00:17:06.039 --> 00:17:08.920
<v Speaker 4>on the t these days. And perhaps that is evidence

287
00:17:09.440 --> 00:17:13.519
<v Speaker 4>by another gay person serving in an administration of Donald Trump.

288
00:17:13.640 --> 00:17:17.720
<v Speaker 4>Scott Descent confirmed as Treasury Secretary, and he is the

289
00:17:17.759 --> 00:17:20.599
<v Speaker 4>first openly gay person to serve as Treasury Secretary, and

290
00:17:20.640 --> 00:17:22.440
<v Speaker 4>I think that makes him like fifth in line to

291
00:17:22.480 --> 00:17:26.240
<v Speaker 4>the throne. So maybe the highest ranking open homost sexual

292
00:17:26.640 --> 00:17:28.039
<v Speaker 4>in the history of the United States.

293
00:17:28.119 --> 00:17:31.359
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, and this is no small cabinet position either. This

294
00:17:31.519 --> 00:17:34.599
<v Speaker 1>is not the postmaster General. You know, he decides how

295
00:17:34.680 --> 00:17:37.799
<v Speaker 1>much we're going to pay for stamps. This is about

296
00:17:37.839 --> 00:17:40.680
<v Speaker 1>as high end as you can get. This is one

297
00:17:40.680 --> 00:17:44.039
<v Speaker 1>of the four or five most important cabinet positions that

298
00:17:44.079 --> 00:17:47.119
<v Speaker 1>you can have. And so you know, it's it's a

299
00:17:47.319 --> 00:17:52.440
<v Speaker 1>mixed view of the Trump administration sort of way to sack.

300
00:17:52.519 --> 00:17:55.319
<v Speaker 1>He's gay and that's okay, a trans is not. So

301
00:17:56.039 --> 00:17:59.920
<v Speaker 1>it's gonna be fascinating stuff. Oh another Trump star.

302
00:18:00.000 --> 00:18:01.960
<v Speaker 2>Sorry, Oh, what are the odds?

303
00:18:02.000 --> 00:18:06.079
<v Speaker 5>An Indiana man recently pardoned by President Trump for his

304
00:18:06.240 --> 00:18:10.640
<v Speaker 5>role in the January sixth riot there at the US

305
00:18:10.759 --> 00:18:13.839
<v Speaker 5>Capitol has been shot killed by a sheriff's deputy during

306
00:18:15.000 --> 00:18:18.680
<v Speaker 5>routine traffic stuff, and it seems that an altercation took

307
00:18:18.720 --> 00:18:21.720
<v Speaker 5>place between the suspect and the officer resulted in the

308
00:18:21.720 --> 00:18:29.359
<v Speaker 5>officer finding his weapon, fatally wounding the suspect. Apparently, Matthew Huddle,

309
00:18:31.480 --> 00:18:36.480
<v Speaker 5>while trying while he was being arrested, resisted and began

310
00:18:36.559 --> 00:18:39.319
<v Speaker 5>struggling with the deputy. So this is probably going to

311
00:18:39.400 --> 00:18:41.319
<v Speaker 5>spark some sort of conspiracy theories.

312
00:18:41.400 --> 00:18:43.720
<v Speaker 1>Oh yeah, traffic stop and as he got out, he

313
00:18:44.079 --> 00:18:47.960
<v Speaker 1>screamed at the cop, you can't arrest me. I've got immunity.

314
00:18:48.799 --> 00:18:50.279
<v Speaker 1>There's nothing you can do to me.

315
00:18:51.240 --> 00:18:53.559
<v Speaker 5>He did have a weapon with him. It doesn't say

316
00:18:53.559 --> 00:18:56.279
<v Speaker 5>whether he had it in hand or that he.

317
00:18:58.039 --> 00:19:01.960
<v Speaker 1>Pulled it on anybody, but even having one in your

318
00:19:02.079 --> 00:19:08.799
<v Speaker 1>hands when you're exiting a car, saying that's a problem.

319
00:19:08.920 --> 00:19:11.759
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, but I'm saying that it doesn't state whether.

320
00:19:11.519 --> 00:19:13.440
<v Speaker 1>It's No, it doesn't in his hand, but I'm assuming

321
00:19:13.480 --> 00:19:16.839
<v Speaker 1>it wasn't on the seat, and maybe it was. Who

322
00:19:16.920 --> 00:19:18.599
<v Speaker 1>the hell knows, And we're going to see what the

323
00:19:18.640 --> 00:19:20.759
<v Speaker 1>investigation is going to pan out.

324
00:19:21.599 --> 00:19:24.640
<v Speaker 4>Well, speaking of conspiracy theories, I think we all know

325
00:19:24.680 --> 00:19:27.440
<v Speaker 4>that it doesn't take much for some folks minds to

326
00:19:27.480 --> 00:19:30.839
<v Speaker 4>head towards human trafficking. Think about Pizzagate back in the

327
00:19:30.880 --> 00:19:34.720
<v Speaker 4>twenty sixteen presidential election, and there are suspicion that there's

328
00:19:34.799 --> 00:19:37.079
<v Speaker 4>just human trafficking helping every happening everywhere.

329
00:19:37.119 --> 00:19:38.880
<v Speaker 2>Maybe there is, I don't know, but there is a

330
00:19:38.920 --> 00:19:40.119
<v Speaker 2>weird image.

331
00:19:39.759 --> 00:19:43.000
<v Speaker 4>From right here in our area that has gone viral online.

332
00:19:43.160 --> 00:19:44.440
<v Speaker 2>It shows this.

333
00:19:44.920 --> 00:19:49.000
<v Speaker 4>It's the satellite image from above this plot of land

334
00:19:49.039 --> 00:19:53.200
<v Speaker 4>that's owned by a railroad, and there are words etched

335
00:19:53.200 --> 00:19:58.440
<v Speaker 4>into the dirt around there that spell help, TRAFFICO and

336
00:19:58.759 --> 00:20:03.079
<v Speaker 4>LAPD and so folks are wondering what the heck is

337
00:20:03.119 --> 00:20:03.480
<v Speaker 4>going on.

338
00:20:03.559 --> 00:20:06.839
<v Speaker 2>You can see it from Google Maps. Have you seen it? Yeah?

339
00:20:06.960 --> 00:20:09.640
<v Speaker 5>So I looked it up on Google Maps to see,

340
00:20:09.680 --> 00:20:11.920
<v Speaker 5>if you know, to make sure it wasn't photoshop or anything.

341
00:20:11.960 --> 00:20:14.920
<v Speaker 2>And it does show up, and it's still there.

342
00:20:15.039 --> 00:20:17.880
<v Speaker 4>One of the local news choppers flew over it yesterday

343
00:20:18.279 --> 00:20:19.440
<v Speaker 4>and it's still there.

344
00:20:19.720 --> 00:20:22.640
<v Speaker 1>You're gonna find this story that the guy who spells

345
00:20:22.720 --> 00:20:26.960
<v Speaker 1>traffico doesn't even speak English or doesn't even speak Spanish.

346
00:20:27.000 --> 00:20:29.559
<v Speaker 2>Well, why spell you traffico and help?

347
00:20:29.599 --> 00:20:34.200
<v Speaker 1>Why not see exactly the see that's the mystery here.

348
00:20:35.599 --> 00:20:36.880
<v Speaker 2>It was really strange.

349
00:20:36.880 --> 00:20:39.039
<v Speaker 5>As a matter of fact, I reached out to Evan

350
00:20:39.240 --> 00:20:43.039
<v Speaker 5>love It from la in a minute. I texted him

351
00:20:43.079 --> 00:20:45.240
<v Speaker 5>this weekend, I said, you know about this, and he

352
00:20:45.359 --> 00:20:48.039
<v Speaker 5>told me, hey, a lot of people are investigating it

353
00:20:48.160 --> 00:20:50.960
<v Speaker 5>right now. It should come out. And sure enough it

354
00:20:51.039 --> 00:20:54.480
<v Speaker 5>popped out, but it was this weekend. It kind of

355
00:20:54.519 --> 00:20:57.039
<v Speaker 5>blew up and it was a fascinating story. But it

356
00:20:57.039 --> 00:20:59.640
<v Speaker 5>looks like some maybe a homeless person breaks in there

357
00:20:59.640 --> 00:21:00.400
<v Speaker 5>every now and again.

358
00:21:00.799 --> 00:21:02.640
<v Speaker 2>As for the last year or so, well, that's what

359
00:21:02.720 --> 00:21:04.519
<v Speaker 2>the railroad wants you to believe.

360
00:21:04.640 --> 00:21:08.920
<v Speaker 1>Need remember the crop circles du dun dum, those were

361
00:21:08.920 --> 00:21:09.319
<v Speaker 1>the best.

362
00:21:09.599 --> 00:21:11.640
<v Speaker 2>Maybe we should get doctor Phil to go check it out.

363
00:21:11.680 --> 00:21:14.359
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, you need to take a dip in like you

364
00:21:15.000 --> 00:21:18.759
<v Speaker 1>all right, we are gonna take a break. We boy,

365
00:21:18.839 --> 00:21:21.400
<v Speaker 1>we milk that one to death. The dumb story.

366
00:21:21.440 --> 00:21:25.440
<v Speaker 3>On top of that, you're listening to Bill Handle on

367
00:21:25.599 --> 00:21:28.079
<v Speaker 3>demand from kf I am six forty.

368
00:21:31.079 --> 00:21:37.720
<v Speaker 1>We finish coffee. We finish Handle on the news, Michael

369
00:21:37.759 --> 00:21:41.680
<v Speaker 1>Monks and for Amy Today Neil and Me. It's a bust.

370
00:21:42.119 --> 00:21:46.079
<v Speaker 5>Federal authorities have arrested eight individuals in connection with a

371
00:21:46.160 --> 00:21:50.920
<v Speaker 5>large scale smuggling operation that allegedly brought counterfeit into illegal

372
00:21:50.960 --> 00:21:55.480
<v Speaker 5>goods from China Shana into the United States through the

373
00:21:55.480 --> 00:21:59.640
<v Speaker 5>ports of Los Angeles and Long Beach dun dundum.

374
00:21:59.359 --> 00:22:01.480
<v Speaker 1>Two million dollars.

375
00:22:02.119 --> 00:22:04.599
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, of counterfeit and dangerous goods.

376
00:22:04.759 --> 00:22:07.799
<v Speaker 1>I mean, the level of counterfeiting that's coming in from

377
00:22:07.960 --> 00:22:13.880
<v Speaker 1>China is just almost beyond comprehension. The stuff that's pouring in.

378
00:22:14.720 --> 00:22:18.079
<v Speaker 4>Not to mention some of the infiltration of local governments allegedly.

379
00:22:18.400 --> 00:22:21.880
<v Speaker 1>Oh yeah, I totally believe that. Not to mention that

380
00:22:21.920 --> 00:22:23.839
<v Speaker 1>panted Express chicken isn't really chicken.

381
00:22:24.039 --> 00:22:25.039
<v Speaker 2>Oh I hate that on Sunday.

382
00:22:25.079 --> 00:22:25.440
<v Speaker 1>What do you mean?

383
00:22:25.440 --> 00:22:30.240
<v Speaker 2>See, I'm telling you it's all counterfeit. It's chicken. Oh,

384
00:22:30.680 --> 00:22:33.400
<v Speaker 2>stand down wing that. Come on, Yeah, it was delicious.

385
00:22:33.400 --> 00:22:35.319
<v Speaker 2>I don't know if they're sponsoring us or not.

386
00:22:35.359 --> 00:22:37.440
<v Speaker 1>But actually I have no idea. But actually it is good.

387
00:22:37.440 --> 00:22:39.960
<v Speaker 1>I like pant Express. But how do I not make

388
00:22:40.000 --> 00:22:40.440
<v Speaker 1>that joke?

389
00:22:43.000 --> 00:22:45.359
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, we should steer away from that, actually, now that

390
00:22:45.400 --> 00:22:48.160
<v Speaker 4>I think about it. Moving along, let's go back to

391
00:22:48.160 --> 00:22:51.599
<v Speaker 4>the nineties and revisit the case of Jean Benet Ramsey,

392
00:22:51.640 --> 00:22:55.119
<v Speaker 4>the pretty little pageant queen who was murdered by whom

393
00:22:55.519 --> 00:22:59.000
<v Speaker 4>we still technically don't know. Now her father, John Ramsey

394
00:22:59.160 --> 00:23:02.400
<v Speaker 4>is pushing for more DNA testing to be used to

395
00:23:02.559 --> 00:23:07.559
<v Speaker 4>identify the killer. We're talking three decades of talking about

396
00:23:07.559 --> 00:23:08.880
<v Speaker 4>this little girl, bill and.

397
00:23:08.880 --> 00:23:12.880
<v Speaker 1>The conspiracy theories are still out there. People. A good

398
00:23:12.960 --> 00:23:15.799
<v Speaker 1>number of people think that her dad, John Ramsey, still

399
00:23:15.839 --> 00:23:20.240
<v Speaker 1>did the killing. He was cleared and a mom might

400
00:23:20.240 --> 00:23:23.240
<v Speaker 1>have been a mother might have killed. I mean, it's

401
00:23:23.279 --> 00:23:24.359
<v Speaker 1>just she's goat.

402
00:23:24.480 --> 00:23:26.240
<v Speaker 2>And then the older brother maybe.

403
00:23:26.079 --> 00:23:29.279
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, they don't know, they don't know. But it's the

404
00:23:29.400 --> 00:23:32.000
<v Speaker 1>question is how do you have a kid found dead

405
00:23:32.359 --> 00:23:36.279
<v Speaker 1>at your house in I think it was the basement.

406
00:23:36.519 --> 00:23:39.680
<v Speaker 1>You're there, and somehow it happened without your knowledge. That

407
00:23:39.920 --> 00:23:44.319
<v Speaker 1>has been a huge question for decades. Now she would

408
00:23:44.359 --> 00:23:47.079
<v Speaker 1>be to Phil, she'd be thirty two, thirty three year

409
00:23:47.079 --> 00:23:48.319
<v Speaker 1>old years old today.

410
00:23:48.599 --> 00:23:53.119
<v Speaker 2>Wow, yeah, I want to feel old crazy all right.

411
00:23:53.200 --> 00:23:58.680
<v Speaker 5>American Airlines employee working at Charlotte Douglas International Airport freak

412
00:23:58.799 --> 00:24:01.839
<v Speaker 5>accident was struck in killed by one of those ramp.

413
00:24:01.680 --> 00:24:05.480
<v Speaker 2>Vehicles well on the tarmac just yesterday.

414
00:24:06.279 --> 00:24:11.240
<v Speaker 5>The airport says, obviously it's working closely with the airline

415
00:24:11.680 --> 00:24:15.960
<v Speaker 5>and first responder partners and investigating this.

416
00:24:16.240 --> 00:24:19.160
<v Speaker 2>But sounds like an accident.

417
00:24:19.720 --> 00:24:23.240
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, sounds like someone just got run over by mistake.

418
00:24:23.279 --> 00:24:25.920
<v Speaker 1>It's not like well as post on purpose, of course,

419
00:24:25.920 --> 00:24:29.079
<v Speaker 1>but I mean it happens, you know, people get run over.

420
00:24:29.640 --> 00:24:34.359
<v Speaker 1>And the story quotes the US Bureau Labor Statistics five

421
00:24:34.400 --> 00:24:37.039
<v Speaker 1>debts like this in twenty twenty three, three in twenty

422
00:24:37.079 --> 00:24:42.680
<v Speaker 1>twenty two. Well, it doesn't happen very often. Clearly, I'm

423
00:24:42.720 --> 00:24:43.720
<v Speaker 1>the journalist in the room.

424
00:24:43.799 --> 00:24:47.200
<v Speaker 4>I'm non partisan and just an observer of things, so

425
00:24:47.240 --> 00:24:50.119
<v Speaker 4>I would never make a comment except to say, we're

426
00:24:50.119 --> 00:24:53.400
<v Speaker 4>a weekend to President Trump's new administration, and Starbucks is

427
00:24:53.440 --> 00:24:57.160
<v Speaker 4>offering free refills again, so make of that what you will.

428
00:24:57.200 --> 00:25:01.000
<v Speaker 4>They're also bringing back their condiment bar I wish I

429
00:25:01.039 --> 00:25:03.039
<v Speaker 4>am not familiar with, maybe because I live in a

430
00:25:03.119 --> 00:25:05.240
<v Speaker 4>rough part of town where they wouldn't tare What was

431
00:25:05.240 --> 00:25:06.359
<v Speaker 4>there like olives on there?

432
00:25:07.839 --> 00:25:11.319
<v Speaker 1>Yeah? It was, uh yeah, olives and salsa for your coffee.

433
00:25:11.400 --> 00:25:14.480
<v Speaker 2>Yeah no, I think it was the sugars.

434
00:25:14.519 --> 00:25:16.319
<v Speaker 1>And then I figure, what, yeah, you can't. I went

435
00:25:16.400 --> 00:25:18.799
<v Speaker 1>to Starbucks the other day and I don't like Starbucks coffee,

436
00:25:18.799 --> 00:25:20.960
<v Speaker 1>but you happen to want some coffee, and it was one,

437
00:25:21.240 --> 00:25:23.880
<v Speaker 1>you know, across the street next to me, around the corner,

438
00:25:23.960 --> 00:25:26.119
<v Speaker 1>and right there, two of them on the street corners.

439
00:25:26.480 --> 00:25:29.559
<v Speaker 1>So I went in there and uh, there were there

440
00:25:29.640 --> 00:25:32.680
<v Speaker 1>was no sweetener, there were there was nothing on the counter.

441
00:25:32.799 --> 00:25:34.880
<v Speaker 1>So I think they're bringing that back. Maybe it's because

442
00:25:34.880 --> 00:25:38.759
<v Speaker 1>people would take handfuls of those things and take them home.

443
00:25:39.160 --> 00:25:42.920
<v Speaker 2>Oh the homeless people that would hang out there. Yeah,

444
00:25:43.000 --> 00:25:43.799
<v Speaker 2>that's what I assumed.

445
00:25:43.799 --> 00:25:46.079
<v Speaker 4>Just like we just lost the Starbucks downtown and we've

446
00:25:46.079 --> 00:25:48.319
<v Speaker 4>got them on every block, but one just closed because

447
00:25:48.359 --> 00:25:50.640
<v Speaker 4>it's so you know, it's so difficult to operate in

448
00:25:50.720 --> 00:25:53.319
<v Speaker 4>some around some members of our society.

449
00:25:54.240 --> 00:25:56.839
<v Speaker 1>Thank you of you all right, one.

450
00:25:56.680 --> 00:26:02.359
<v Speaker 5>More, Okay, Supreme Court won't review Mississippi's voting ban for felons,

451
00:26:02.400 --> 00:26:06.359
<v Speaker 5>So they declined Monday to decide whether a permanent voting

452
00:26:06.400 --> 00:26:09.680
<v Speaker 5>ban on people convicted of felonies in Mississippi.

453
00:26:09.359 --> 00:26:11.960
<v Speaker 2>Is crue, cruel and unusual punishment.

454
00:26:12.519 --> 00:26:14.960
<v Speaker 5>The Court back in twenty twenty three had also rejected

455
00:26:14.960 --> 00:26:18.359
<v Speaker 5>a different challenge to the state's voting restriction that was

456
00:26:18.440 --> 00:26:22.119
<v Speaker 5>based on the fact it was drafted in eighteen ninety

457
00:26:22.119 --> 00:26:26.839
<v Speaker 5>as part of a so called racist effort to disenfranchise

458
00:26:26.960 --> 00:26:27.759
<v Speaker 5>black voters.

459
00:26:28.160 --> 00:26:32.240
<v Speaker 1>Now, this was strictly a constitutional question, nothing more, nothing less.

460
00:26:32.480 --> 00:26:35.359
<v Speaker 1>States have the right to say felons do not vote,

461
00:26:35.880 --> 00:26:38.359
<v Speaker 1>that's not a problem, and the Supreme Court certainly would

462
00:26:38.400 --> 00:26:41.640
<v Speaker 1>give them the right to do that. This was a

463
00:26:41.759 --> 00:26:45.400
<v Speaker 1>permanent voting ban on people convicted of felonies? Is it

464
00:26:45.559 --> 00:26:48.079
<v Speaker 1>cruel and unusual under the Eighth Amendment?

465
00:26:48.960 --> 00:26:51.079
<v Speaker 2>So if they get out, you mean or if they've

466
00:26:51.119 --> 00:26:51.799
<v Speaker 2>served their time.

467
00:26:51.960 --> 00:26:56.440
<v Speaker 1>If they've served their time, but they're felons and the

468
00:26:56.599 --> 00:26:59.720
<v Speaker 1>court wouldn't hear it. Supreme Court, the Appeals Court said

469
00:27:00.279 --> 00:27:02.720
<v Speaker 1>the state can do that. There's nothing unconstitutional about it.

470
00:27:03.160 --> 00:27:03.519
<v Speaker 2>All right.

471
00:27:03.839 --> 00:27:08.920
<v Speaker 1>Here's a really interesting sideline. The guy who killed Robin.

472
00:27:09.559 --> 00:27:14.480
<v Speaker 1>It's Hak Rabin, the Israeli who assassinated who killed the

473
00:27:14.519 --> 00:27:18.240
<v Speaker 1>prime minister. In Israel, you can vote no matter what.

474
00:27:18.720 --> 00:27:22.200
<v Speaker 1>He voted in the election while he was in prison

475
00:27:22.799 --> 00:27:26.359
<v Speaker 1>to replace in the general election. He ended up voting

476
00:27:26.519 --> 00:27:28.880
<v Speaker 1>because in ISRAELI let you vote whether you're in prison

477
00:27:28.960 --> 00:27:31.119
<v Speaker 1>or not. I just I don't know why I brought

478
00:27:31.119 --> 00:27:31.440
<v Speaker 1>that up.

479
00:27:31.920 --> 00:27:34.440
<v Speaker 2>It is Trump allowed to vote in his own election.

480
00:27:36.319 --> 00:27:39.359
<v Speaker 1>He's a convicted felon. Do you know that's a very

481
00:27:39.440 --> 00:27:45.319
<v Speaker 1>good question. Can Trump vote in Uh? Well, he was

482
00:27:45.319 --> 00:27:49.920
<v Speaker 1>convicted New York, but his residency is Florida, So yeah,

483
00:27:50.000 --> 00:27:53.200
<v Speaker 1>but that is that is a great question. I don't

484
00:27:53.200 --> 00:27:57.119
<v Speaker 1>know if New York allows felons to vote. This is

485
00:27:57.160 --> 00:28:00.759
<v Speaker 1>spectacular and that's worth looking up. Neil. Is one of

486
00:28:00.799 --> 00:28:03.359
<v Speaker 1>the best questions I have heard in a very very

487
00:28:03.440 --> 00:28:07.519
<v Speaker 1>long time. Can Trump vote in New York? Although it

488
00:28:07.519 --> 00:28:11.240
<v Speaker 1>doesn't matter because he's Florida. Okay, and he was not

489
00:28:11.240 --> 00:28:14.000
<v Speaker 1>convicted in Florida. All right, guys, we are done. WHOA

490
00:28:14.119 --> 00:28:17.720
<v Speaker 1>what a way to end it? Yeeha? All right? Coming up,

491
00:28:18.480 --> 00:28:22.960
<v Speaker 1>there is video now of the start of the eaton Fire,

492
00:28:23.119 --> 00:28:27.319
<v Speaker 1>or so they think, and is Southern California Edison involved.

493
00:28:27.480 --> 00:28:29.559
<v Speaker 1>There's a world to that one. I'll cover that one

494
00:28:29.599 --> 00:28:34.440
<v Speaker 1>when we come back. This is KFI AM sixty. You've
