<v Speaker 1>It's February thirteenth. Do you have your Valentine stuff already?

8
00:00:37.200 --> 00:00:38.039

<v Speaker 4>I'm Amy King. This is your wake up call.

10
00:00:43.640 --> 00:00:46.240
<v Speaker 1>As I mentioned, we're live everywhere on the iHeartRadio app.

11
00:00:46.719 --> 00:00:50.039
<v Speaker 1>And here's what's ahead on wake up Call this Thursday.

12
00:00:50.439 --> 00:00:53.640
<v Speaker 1>Evacuation warnings go into effect at seven am for areas

13
00:00:53.679 --> 00:00:57.280
<v Speaker 1>near the Palisades, Sunset and Hurst fires as a strong

14
00:00:57.439 --> 00:01:01.159
<v Speaker 1>storm moves into southern California Orchaster say there's a high

15
00:01:01.280 --> 00:01:04.719
<v Speaker 1>risk of flooding and debris flows. Some homes will be

16
00:01:04.840 --> 00:01:08.760
<v Speaker 1>under mandatory evacuation orders. Those people are being contacted directly

17
00:01:08.840 --> 00:01:12.040
<v Speaker 1>by LA Fire officials say everyone in the burn areas

18
00:01:12.079 --> 00:01:15.799
<v Speaker 1>needs to have an evacuation plan in place just in case.

19
00:01:16.400 --> 00:01:20.400
<v Speaker 1>The LA City Council's unanimously adopted in ordinance that temporarily

20
00:01:20.519 --> 00:01:25.079
<v Speaker 1>prohibits landlords from evicting tenants who've taken in extra people

21
00:01:25.319 --> 00:01:29.000
<v Speaker 1>or pets displaced by the wildfires in LA Landlords will

22
00:01:29.040 --> 00:01:33.000
<v Speaker 1>also be prohibited from raising rents because of extra occupants.

23
00:01:33.599 --> 00:01:36.959
<v Speaker 1>The policy will be in effect for one year. A

24
00:01:37.000 --> 00:01:40.719
<v Speaker 1>federal judge is ruled that President Trump's buyout offer to

25
00:01:40.760 --> 00:01:44.519
<v Speaker 1>federal employees can move forward. So far, about seventy five

26
00:01:44.560 --> 00:01:49.599
<v Speaker 1>thousand have accepted it. President Trump and President Putin have talked.

27
00:01:49.680 --> 00:01:51.959
<v Speaker 1>They talked to the phone for over an hour yesterday.

28
00:01:51.959 --> 00:01:55.439
<v Speaker 1>ABC's Karen Travers's both say they're ready to find a

29
00:01:55.480 --> 00:01:57.879
<v Speaker 1>way to stop the fighting in Ukraine. We're going to

30
00:01:58.159 --> 00:02:01.000
<v Speaker 1>check in with Karen and just about to four minutes,

31
00:02:01.760 --> 00:02:04.400
<v Speaker 1>and if things go the way researchers are hoping, you

32
00:02:04.560 --> 00:02:07.959
<v Speaker 1>could get peanuts on plane rides again. ABC's Jim Ryan's

33
00:02:08.000 --> 00:02:11.120
<v Speaker 1>going to tell us about a breakthrough in peanut allergies.

34
00:02:11.159 --> 00:02:12.719
<v Speaker 4>That's at five twenty.

35
00:02:13.439 --> 00:02:15.639
<v Speaker 1>And you're definitely gonna want to hang around for this one,

36
00:02:15.680 --> 00:02:18.439
<v Speaker 1>because you know that students are struggling. They've been working

37
00:02:18.479 --> 00:02:21.199
<v Speaker 1>to get back up to speed since the pandemic and

38
00:02:21.240 --> 00:02:24.479
<v Speaker 1>it just hasn't been going that well. Graduation rates are down,

39
00:02:24.599 --> 00:02:28.120
<v Speaker 1>scores are down, but not in Compton. We're going to

40
00:02:28.199 --> 00:02:32.159
<v Speaker 1>talk with Compton District Superintendent doctor Darren Brawley and find

41
00:02:32.159 --> 00:02:35.199
<v Speaker 1>out what Compton is doing right and how their kids

42
00:02:35.240 --> 00:02:38.599
<v Speaker 1>are thriving. And also a bonus edition of Amy's on

43
00:02:38.680 --> 00:02:40.479
<v Speaker 1>It as we get closer to the SAG and the

44
00:02:40.520 --> 00:02:45.360
<v Speaker 1>Academy Awards. Finally an Academy Award nominated movie that I

45
00:02:45.360 --> 00:02:48.840
<v Speaker 1>can really get behind. It may just make your heart sing.

46
00:02:49.360 --> 00:02:51.439
<v Speaker 1>That's a hint. Let's get started with some of the

47
00:02:51.439 --> 00:02:53.599
<v Speaker 1>stories coming out of the KFI twenty four hour newsroom.

48
00:02:53.639 --> 00:02:56.759
<v Speaker 1>The heaviest rain of this storm system is moving into

49
00:02:56.759 --> 00:03:00.479
<v Speaker 1>southern California. It's expected to intensify this afternoon and raising

50
00:03:00.520 --> 00:03:04.280
<v Speaker 1>concerns of mud and debris flows in burn areas. Evacuation

51
00:03:04.400 --> 00:03:07.520
<v Speaker 1>warnings have been issued for areas around the Palisades Fire,

52
00:03:07.560 --> 00:03:10.280
<v Speaker 1>the Sunset Fire in the Hollywood Hills, and the Hearstfire

53
00:03:10.319 --> 00:03:14.479
<v Speaker 1>in silmar La County. Sheriff Luna says specific homes considered

54
00:03:14.520 --> 00:03:17.599
<v Speaker 1>to be at high risk will be subject to mandatory

55
00:03:17.599 --> 00:03:18.680
<v Speaker 1>evacuation orders.

56
00:03:18.719 --> 00:03:20.919
<v Speaker 5>They help to protect you and your loved ones from

57
00:03:20.919 --> 00:03:26.639
<v Speaker 5>potential danger. Storms can bring sudden and severe conditions that

58
00:03:26.800 --> 00:03:29.840
<v Speaker 5>make stain back home extremely risky.

59
00:03:30.039 --> 00:03:32.400
<v Speaker 1>A flash flood watch has been issued by the National

60
00:03:32.439 --> 00:03:35.400
<v Speaker 1>Weather Service for most of La County four this morning

61
00:03:35.560 --> 00:03:38.439
<v Speaker 1>through late tonight. A floodwatch will also be in effect

62
00:03:38.479 --> 00:03:42.400
<v Speaker 1>for most of Orange County. A new study shows atmospheric

63
00:03:42.560 --> 00:03:46.039
<v Speaker 1>rivers can cause a lot more extensive damage than might

64
00:03:46.039 --> 00:03:49.439
<v Speaker 1>be expected. Corinn Bowers is the lead author of the

65
00:03:49.439 --> 00:03:53.280
<v Speaker 1>study at Stanford University. She says when atmospheric rivers happen

66
00:03:53.400 --> 00:03:57.680
<v Speaker 1>in succession, the damage doesn't just add up, it multiplies.

67
00:03:57.840 --> 00:04:00.199
<v Speaker 4>They contribute up to half of our water every year.

68
00:04:00.240 --> 00:04:02.879
<v Speaker 6>But they also tend to deliver a lot of water

69
00:04:03.159 --> 00:04:04.800
<v Speaker 6>in very short periods of time.

70
00:04:06.439 --> 00:04:10.039
<v Speaker 1>Bowers says during wet years there are more frequent and

71
00:04:10.159 --> 00:04:15.159
<v Speaker 1>longer complex sequences, so there's less time to recover between

72
00:04:15.360 --> 00:04:19.240
<v Speaker 1>atmospheric rivers. People who lost their homes in the Pacific

73
00:04:19.279 --> 00:04:22.879
<v Speaker 1>Palisades in Altadena now have a place to go to

74
00:04:22.879 --> 00:04:26.800
<v Speaker 1>to assist them in expediting the rebuilding process. The City

75
00:04:26.879 --> 00:04:31.240
<v Speaker 1>Building and Safety Office in West LA has set up

76
00:04:31.240 --> 00:04:35.399
<v Speaker 1>a center to help residents expedite permits and file other documents.

77
00:04:35.879 --> 00:04:39.319
<v Speaker 1>La County also has a one stop rebuilding shop for

78
00:04:39.480 --> 00:04:44.040
<v Speaker 1>Eton fire residents at the FEMA Disaster Recovery Center in Altadena.

79
00:04:45.600 --> 00:04:49.279
<v Speaker 1>A man from Culver City has pleaded guilty to recklessly

80
00:04:49.399 --> 00:04:53.399
<v Speaker 1>operating the drone that crashed into a Super Scooper fighting

81
00:04:53.439 --> 00:04:58.759
<v Speaker 1>plane Super Scooper firefighting plane during the fire in Pacific

82
00:04:58.839 --> 00:05:03.240
<v Speaker 1>Palisades last month. Put a hole in a wing and

83
00:05:03.319 --> 00:05:05.519
<v Speaker 1>caused the plane to be taken out of service while

84
00:05:05.519 --> 00:05:09.120
<v Speaker 1>it was fixed. It costs more than sixty five thousand dollars.

85
00:05:09.160 --> 00:05:12.680
<v Speaker 1>The US Attorney's Office says the drone operator has agreed

86
00:05:12.920 --> 00:05:15.560
<v Speaker 1>to pay full restitution and we'll do one hundred and

87
00:05:15.560 --> 00:05:19.040
<v Speaker 1>fifty hours of community service in support of the twenty

88
00:05:19.079 --> 00:05:26.000
<v Speaker 1>twenty five Southern California wildfire relief effort. All right, let's

89
00:05:26.240 --> 00:05:31.000
<v Speaker 1>go ahead and check in now with ABC's Karen Travers. Karen,

90
00:05:31.040 --> 00:05:34.399
<v Speaker 1>President Trump says he and Russia's President Putin have talked

91
00:05:34.439 --> 00:05:37.160
<v Speaker 1>on the phone for quite a while and says that

92
00:05:37.279 --> 00:05:41.240
<v Speaker 1>negotiations will begin to end the war in Ukraine.

93
00:05:42.680 --> 00:05:46.560
<v Speaker 7>Yeah, the President spoke yesterday for ninety minutes with Vladimir Putin.

94
00:05:46.639 --> 00:05:48.240
<v Speaker 7>He spoke to him first, and then he spoke with

95
00:05:48.360 --> 00:05:52.680
<v Speaker 7>Ukrainian President Vilensky. After the President said to reporters after

96
00:05:52.720 --> 00:05:55.639
<v Speaker 7>the phone calls, I think President Putin wants peace and

97
00:05:55.720 --> 00:05:58.879
<v Speaker 7>President Violinsky wants peace, he said, I want peace.

98
00:05:59.279 --> 00:06:00.480
<v Speaker 8>It's not clear now you.

99
00:06:00.519 --> 00:06:03.920
<v Speaker 7>Know how the president is going to do the negotiations

100
00:06:03.959 --> 00:06:07.079
<v Speaker 7>to end this nearly three year war. Remember, as a candidate,

101
00:06:07.120 --> 00:06:08.920
<v Speaker 7>he of course said he would end the war on

102
00:06:09.079 --> 00:06:12.560
<v Speaker 7>day one in office. That did not happen. But these

103
00:06:12.600 --> 00:06:17.000
<v Speaker 7>are his most tangible steps to move forward on negotiations

104
00:06:17.040 --> 00:06:19.279
<v Speaker 7>to try to bring an end to it. He called

105
00:06:19.279 --> 00:06:22.319
<v Speaker 7>the conversation with Putin highly productive and said that they

106
00:06:22.360 --> 00:06:26.319
<v Speaker 7>would start negotiations immediately, including at some point soon face

107
00:06:26.360 --> 00:06:28.879
<v Speaker 7>to face meetings. He said he expects that Putin will

108
00:06:28.879 --> 00:06:31.279
<v Speaker 7>come to the US he would go to Russia, but

109
00:06:31.399 --> 00:06:33.680
<v Speaker 7>also said the first sit down could be in Saudi

110
00:06:33.720 --> 00:06:35.279
<v Speaker 7>Arabia in the near future.

111
00:06:36.120 --> 00:06:39.360
<v Speaker 1>Okay, And so the endgame for all of this, of course,

112
00:06:39.439 --> 00:06:43.040
<v Speaker 1>is to end the war. And does it appear from

113
00:06:43.079 --> 00:06:47.000
<v Speaker 1>anything that anybody has said yet that Russia is going

114
00:06:47.079 --> 00:06:50.279
<v Speaker 1>to give up anything, because I know that the Secretary

115
00:06:50.319 --> 00:06:56.040
<v Speaker 1>of Defense Pete Hegsath yesterday said that Ukraine's not going

116
00:06:56.120 --> 00:06:58.360
<v Speaker 1>to get into NATO, that's not really on the table,

117
00:06:58.439 --> 00:07:01.680
<v Speaker 1>and probably can't keep the orders that it has had,

118
00:07:01.839 --> 00:07:03.600
<v Speaker 1>meaning they might have to give up some land.

119
00:07:04.920 --> 00:07:07.959
<v Speaker 7>Yeah, I mean, that's you know, that's part of him.

120
00:07:08.040 --> 00:07:09.519
<v Speaker 7>That's the kind of the crux of all of this,

121
00:07:09.720 --> 00:07:12.519
<v Speaker 7>of what the territory would look like. And Haig Saith

122
00:07:12.639 --> 00:07:16.360
<v Speaker 7>said yesterday we must start by recognizing that returning to

123
00:07:16.439 --> 00:07:21.560
<v Speaker 7>Ukraine's pre twenty fourteen borders is an unrealistic objective. Talking

124
00:07:21.600 --> 00:07:25.920
<v Speaker 7>of course about when Russia invaded Crimea, the President was

125
00:07:25.959 --> 00:07:30.120
<v Speaker 7>asked yesterday if he would support Ukraine having to give

126
00:07:30.199 --> 00:07:33.680
<v Speaker 7>up territory, and the President would not say. He said,

127
00:07:33.759 --> 00:07:35.600
<v Speaker 7>you know, Zelensky's going to have to do what he

128
00:07:35.759 --> 00:07:38.160
<v Speaker 7>has to do. So you know, in terms of what

129
00:07:38.199 --> 00:07:41.759
<v Speaker 7>the President is indicating about land and all of that,

130
00:07:41.879 --> 00:07:44.720
<v Speaker 7>he's not saying at this point yet what he thinks

131
00:07:44.720 --> 00:07:47.199
<v Speaker 7>should happen. But that will certainly be I think the

132
00:07:47.199 --> 00:07:49.040
<v Speaker 7>most complicated part of the negotiation.

133
00:07:49.519 --> 00:07:51.879
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, and it'll be interesting to see because, as you mentioned,

134
00:07:52.079 --> 00:07:56.120
<v Speaker 1>the pre twenty fourteen when Crimea was taken over, So

135
00:07:57.079 --> 00:07:59.639
<v Speaker 1>was Ukraine pushing to get that back.

136
00:08:01.079 --> 00:08:02.879
<v Speaker 7>I mean, I think that that's something that they would

137
00:08:02.920 --> 00:08:05.319
<v Speaker 7>like to see happened in a negotiation. And you know,

138
00:08:05.360 --> 00:08:09.199
<v Speaker 7>it's also notable just when you think back back to then,

139
00:08:10.240 --> 00:08:12.680
<v Speaker 7>Remember I had said that the President indicated he would

140
00:08:12.759 --> 00:08:16.800
<v Speaker 7>visit Russia. A US president hasn't visited Russia since back

141
00:08:16.839 --> 00:08:20.800
<v Speaker 7>in September of twenty thirteen, that was five months before

142
00:08:20.839 --> 00:08:24.680
<v Speaker 7>Russia invaded Crimea and the President Obama at the time

143
00:08:24.959 --> 00:08:27.399
<v Speaker 7>went to Russia for a World leader summit. But there

144
00:08:27.399 --> 00:08:30.319
<v Speaker 7>have been no visits to there since that point because

145
00:08:30.399 --> 00:08:33.559
<v Speaker 7>so much has changed. And that was such a pivotal

146
00:08:33.600 --> 00:08:36.279
<v Speaker 7>moment obviously, with that invasion of Crimea.

147
00:08:36.559 --> 00:08:41.080
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, not exactly a friendly territory at this point in time, Okay.

148
00:08:41.159 --> 00:08:44.879
<v Speaker 1>And then something else that happened yesterday was all of

149
00:08:44.879 --> 00:08:48.399
<v Speaker 1>a sudden boom, we have somebody who's been held in

150
00:08:48.480 --> 00:08:50.799
<v Speaker 1>Russia for three and a half years and they're released.

151
00:08:52.200 --> 00:08:55.919
<v Speaker 7>Yeah. This happened late at night, the night before the

152
00:08:55.960 --> 00:08:58.279
<v Speaker 7>President welcomed Russia.

153
00:08:58.360 --> 00:08:58.759
<v Speaker 8>Excuse me.

154
00:08:58.799 --> 00:09:01.879
<v Speaker 7>American Mark Fobell, an American teacher who had been considered

155
00:09:01.919 --> 00:09:05.200
<v Speaker 7>wrongfully detained by Russia. He came back to the US

156
00:09:05.240 --> 00:09:08.360
<v Speaker 7>after more than three years in Russian captivity. He had

157
00:09:08.360 --> 00:09:12.200
<v Speaker 7>been imprisoned for having a small amount of medically prescribed

158
00:09:12.240 --> 00:09:14.919
<v Speaker 7>marijuana on him when he was going through an airport.

159
00:09:15.320 --> 00:09:18.600
<v Speaker 7>The Russians, in exchange were able to get from the

160
00:09:18.679 --> 00:09:23.279
<v Speaker 7>United States a cyber crime Kingpin Alexander Vinnick. The President

161
00:09:23.360 --> 00:09:26.399
<v Speaker 7>had said that night when he was greeting Fogal that

162
00:09:26.440 --> 00:09:29.879
<v Speaker 7>the Russians had not gotten much in the exchange. Certainly

163
00:09:30.000 --> 00:09:32.360
<v Speaker 7>now when we know the details of this they did

164
00:09:32.440 --> 00:09:34.320
<v Speaker 7>that was a big get for the Russians as part

165
00:09:34.320 --> 00:09:35.399
<v Speaker 7>of this prisoner swap.

166
00:09:36.960 --> 00:09:39.480
<v Speaker 1>Now, but as far as we know, there wasn't any

167
00:09:39.519 --> 00:09:41.039
<v Speaker 1>money paid or anything like that.

168
00:09:41.080 --> 00:09:43.159
<v Speaker 4>It was just a one for one swap.

169
00:09:44.919 --> 00:09:47.960
<v Speaker 7>That is what we know so far. No other details though.

170
00:09:47.919 --> 00:09:51.720
<v Speaker 1>Okay, and then we heard the President say another person

171
00:09:51.879 --> 00:09:54.399
<v Speaker 1>was going to be released. Have we heard anything more

172
00:09:54.399 --> 00:09:54.799
<v Speaker 1>about that.

173
00:09:56.120 --> 00:10:00.919
<v Speaker 7>There was an announcement yesterday of three people who were

174
00:10:00.960 --> 00:10:04.039
<v Speaker 7>released from prisons in Belarus, including an American who was

175
00:10:04.120 --> 00:10:06.960
<v Speaker 7>asked who had asked to remain anonymous, So we don't

176
00:10:06.960 --> 00:10:08.159
<v Speaker 7>have details of who that is.

177
00:10:08.279 --> 00:10:11.200
<v Speaker 1>All right, ABC's Karen Travis, thanks so much for the information.

178
00:10:11.240 --> 00:10:14.320
<v Speaker 4>We'll talk again soon. Have a great day, all right

179
00:10:14.320 --> 00:10:14.679
<v Speaker 4>you too.

180
00:10:15.080 --> 00:10:16.759
<v Speaker 1>Let's get back to some of the stories coming out

181
00:10:16.759 --> 00:10:19.639
<v Speaker 1>of the KFI twenty four hour newsroom. Two pilots of

182
00:10:19.679 --> 00:10:23.480
<v Speaker 1>a Navy F eighteen jet have been able to succite

183
00:10:23.600 --> 00:10:27.440
<v Speaker 1>us safely eject before their jet crashed into San Diego Bay.

184
00:10:27.559 --> 00:10:30.360
<v Speaker 9>You'll see a large coast guarden Navy presidents holding the

185
00:10:30.399 --> 00:10:34.039
<v Speaker 9>maritime perimeter of the debree field while all of the

186
00:10:34.120 --> 00:10:35.360
<v Speaker 9>debris is recovered.

187
00:10:35.519 --> 00:10:38.039
<v Speaker 1>San Diego Harbor Police say they're working to contain the

188
00:10:38.120 --> 00:10:41.720
<v Speaker 1>crash site in the waters between Coronado and Point Loma

189
00:10:42.120 --> 00:10:43.759
<v Speaker 1>with booms on the water.

190
00:10:43.840 --> 00:10:46.399
<v Speaker 9>It's a boom that is made to kind of prevent

191
00:10:46.600 --> 00:10:50.240
<v Speaker 9>environmental skills from expanding, prevent the debris field from expanding,

192
00:10:50.320 --> 00:10:51.559
<v Speaker 9>and kind of set the perimeter.

193
00:10:52.279 --> 00:10:55.399
<v Speaker 1>Non essential travel and San Diego Bay is restricted during

194
00:10:55.440 --> 00:10:58.799
<v Speaker 1>the recovery and investigation. The pilots both were taken to

195
00:10:58.840 --> 00:11:02.440
<v Speaker 1>the hospital and are install condition. A fourteen year old

196
00:11:02.440 --> 00:11:05.759
<v Speaker 1>has been arrested for allegedly stabbing another teenager during an

197
00:11:05.759 --> 00:11:09.600
<v Speaker 1>immigration protest in downtown LA. The seventeen year old who

198
00:11:09.679 --> 00:11:12.480
<v Speaker 1>was attacked Friday was taken to the hospital in critical condition.

199
00:11:12.720 --> 00:11:15.360
<v Speaker 1>Bill He said yesterday that the younger teen has been

200
00:11:15.360 --> 00:11:19.960
<v Speaker 1>booked on suspicion of attempted murder. The Department of Justice

201
00:11:20.200 --> 00:11:23.279
<v Speaker 1>is suing the state of New York over its sanctuary laws.

202
00:11:23.679 --> 00:11:26.960
<v Speaker 1>Attorney General Pam Bondi says laws in New York keep

203
00:11:27.000 --> 00:11:30.679
<v Speaker 1>police officers from asking about a person's immigration status during

204
00:11:30.759 --> 00:11:35.320
<v Speaker 1>a traffic stop. Law enforcement officers cannot check their identity

205
00:11:35.440 --> 00:11:38.840
<v Speaker 1>if they pull them over. Law enforcement officers do not

206
00:11:39.039 --> 00:11:43.519
<v Speaker 1>have access to their background. Bondy says any state that

207
00:11:43.679 --> 00:11:48.279
<v Speaker 1>does not comply with federal law will be sued. Parents, educators,

208
00:11:48.360 --> 00:11:51.840
<v Speaker 1>community leaders, and elected officials have gathered in Washington, d C.

209
00:11:52.080 --> 00:11:55.919
<v Speaker 1>To protest proposed cuts to the Department of Education. Becky

210
00:11:55.960 --> 00:11:59.519
<v Speaker 1>Pringle with the National Education Association spoke at Yesterday's rally,

211
00:11:59.519 --> 00:12:03.240
<v Speaker 1>saying stutudent's civil rights are being eliminated by President Trump's

212
00:12:03.240 --> 00:12:06.320
<v Speaker 1>executive orders.

213
00:12:05.399 --> 00:12:07.159
<v Speaker 4>To dismantle our public.

214
00:12:06.919 --> 00:12:12.080
<v Speaker 5>Schools are an attempt to abolish our democracy.

215
00:12:12.720 --> 00:12:15.679
<v Speaker 1>She says, every student deserves to attend a public school

216
00:12:15.720 --> 00:12:21.320
<v Speaker 1>that is high quality, safe, inviting, welcoming, and inclusive. A

217
00:12:21.360 --> 00:12:27.120
<v Speaker 1>federal judge has dismissed an equal Potential, Equal Protection climate

218
00:12:27.240 --> 00:12:30.840
<v Speaker 1>case brought by eighteen teenagers. The lawsuit, led by a

219
00:12:30.879 --> 00:12:35.039
<v Speaker 1>teen from Long Beach, claimed the EPA intentionally allows planet

220
00:12:35.039 --> 00:12:38.879
<v Speaker 1>warming pollution despite knowing that it harms children's health and welfare,

221
00:12:39.200 --> 00:12:42.840
<v Speaker 1>among other things. The judge ruled the plaintiffs failed to

222
00:12:42.919 --> 00:12:48.759
<v Speaker 1>show that the EPA's policies discriminate against children, specifically. A

223
00:12:48.799 --> 00:12:52.519
<v Speaker 1>new study suggests that weight loss medications like ozempic may

224
00:12:52.559 --> 00:12:56.480
<v Speaker 1>also help people drink less. A small study in Drama

225
00:12:56.679 --> 00:13:00.120
<v Speaker 1>psychiatry shows that the drugs may not only curb cravings

226
00:13:00.120 --> 00:13:03.919
<v Speaker 1>for food, but for alcohol as well. Experts say it's

227
00:13:03.960 --> 00:13:06.799
<v Speaker 1>not yet clear how safe these drugs are for people

228
00:13:07.039 --> 00:13:08.519
<v Speaker 1>who don't need to lose weight.

229
00:13:09.039 --> 00:13:19.159
<v Speaker 10>Ah my exceens living tex Texas zs and blows. I

230
00:13:19.440 --> 00:13:21.000
<v Speaker 10>really love to.

231
00:13:21.399 --> 00:13:22.960
<v Speaker 4>I just thought I'd liked that play very while.

232
00:13:23.120 --> 00:13:25.759
<v Speaker 1>Hey, that's George Straight and he is hitting the road

233
00:13:25.840 --> 00:13:27.679
<v Speaker 1>with Chris Stapleton this summer.

234
00:13:27.759 --> 00:13:30.240
<v Speaker 4>The country music legend announced that he'll play.

235
00:13:30.360 --> 00:13:34.519
<v Speaker 1>Five stadium shows, starting in Philadelphia on May tenth. The

236
00:13:34.600 --> 00:13:36.720
<v Speaker 1>last show it's going to be right here at Sofi

237
00:13:36.840 --> 00:13:40.440
<v Speaker 1>Stadium in Inglewood. That one's on July nineteenth. Tickets go

238
00:13:40.480 --> 00:13:44.399
<v Speaker 1>on sale February twenty first. That is a concert I'm

239
00:13:44.480 --> 00:13:48.559
<v Speaker 1>maybe willing to fork out a lot of cash for. Okay, uh,

240
00:13:49.240 --> 00:13:53.679
<v Speaker 1>happy joy Joy news. I think sometimes we just need

241
00:13:53.720 --> 00:13:56.120
<v Speaker 1>to have something positive to start our day because there's

242
00:13:56.120 --> 00:13:58.879
<v Speaker 1>so much negative stuff. And so it is scrolling through

243
00:13:59.200 --> 00:14:04.679
<v Speaker 1>Facebook the day and there's a Ted Lasso Facebook Facebook page,

244
00:14:05.039 --> 00:14:08.399
<v Speaker 1>and there are thirteen leadership lessons from Ted Lasso. Man

245
00:14:08.440 --> 00:14:10.440
<v Speaker 1>I miss that show. So here they are.

246
00:14:12.440 --> 00:14:18.399
<v Speaker 4>One. Be sincere. Two stay teachable. That's good. Three see

247
00:14:18.440 --> 00:14:20.639
<v Speaker 4>good in others. Four.

248
00:14:21.360 --> 00:14:27.600
<v Speaker 1>Happiness is a choice. Five Winning is an attitude. Six

249
00:14:27.840 --> 00:14:34.039
<v Speaker 1>Have confidence in yourself. Seven Optimists take more chances. Eight

250
00:14:34.799 --> 00:14:41.120
<v Speaker 1>Everyone differs from everyone else, that's the truth. Nine. Courage

251
00:14:41.200 --> 00:14:46.679
<v Speaker 1>is the willingness to attempt. Ten Vulnerability is a strength,

252
00:14:46.840 --> 00:14:50.919
<v Speaker 1>not a weakness. Eleven doing the right thing is never

253
00:14:51.039 --> 00:14:56.320
<v Speaker 1>the wrong thing. Twelve be curious, not judgmental, and thirteen

254
00:14:57.399 --> 00:15:02.200
<v Speaker 1>be a goldfish. Don't allow one bad deed to define

255
00:15:02.360 --> 00:15:05.879
<v Speaker 1>who you are in less than ten seconds. Forget about it,

256
00:15:06.080 --> 00:15:09.279
<v Speaker 1>just like a goldfish does. Oh, I missed that show.

257
00:15:09.879 --> 00:15:12.399
<v Speaker 1>Schools in Malibu close today because of the risk of

258
00:15:12.480 --> 00:15:15.360
<v Speaker 1>mud and debrief flows and flooding from the atmospheric River

259
00:15:15.440 --> 00:15:18.399
<v Speaker 1>moving through southern California. School officials are going to decide

260
00:15:18.480 --> 00:15:21.159
<v Speaker 1>later today if schools will be closed again tomorrow. Also,

261
00:15:21.240 --> 00:15:24.919
<v Speaker 1>Malibu Canyon Road, which is near the Franklin and Palisades

262
00:15:25.159 --> 00:15:28.200
<v Speaker 1>fire burn scars, is going to be closed from early

263
00:15:28.279 --> 00:15:32.679
<v Speaker 1>this morning until probably Friday night. Hamas says it will

264
00:15:32.759 --> 00:15:36.759
<v Speaker 1>release the next group of Israeli hostages As planned to

265
00:15:36.840 --> 00:15:40.120
<v Speaker 1>keep the cease fire deal with Israel in effect. Hamas

266
00:15:40.120 --> 00:15:44.879
<v Speaker 1>had threatened to delay the Hostages release, accusing Israel of

267
00:15:45.120 --> 00:15:49.039
<v Speaker 1>not allowing tenants or tents and shelters into Gaza, along

268
00:15:49.080 --> 00:15:52.759
<v Speaker 1>with other truce violations. In response, Israel had threatened to

269
00:15:52.799 --> 00:15:56.039
<v Speaker 1>renew its offensive in Gaza. The next Hostages scheduled to

270
00:15:56.039 --> 00:16:00.759
<v Speaker 1>be released on Saturday. Billy Idol, Mariah Carey, Cindy, and

271
00:16:01.039 --> 00:16:04.600
<v Speaker 1>Chubby Checker are among the fourteen artists nominated for the

272
00:16:04.639 --> 00:16:07.360
<v Speaker 1>twenty twenty five Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. Fan

273
00:16:07.559 --> 00:16:11.240
<v Speaker 1>voting is underway and that'll go through April twenty first.

274
00:16:11.559 --> 00:16:14.320
<v Speaker 1>The inductees will be announced in late April and then

275
00:16:14.320 --> 00:16:16.679
<v Speaker 1>inducted into the Hall of Fame at a ceremony in

276
00:16:16.799 --> 00:16:19.960
<v Speaker 1>Los Angeles' fall coming up at five point fifty students

277
00:16:19.960 --> 00:16:24.200
<v Speaker 1>are struggling. Graduation rates are down, but not in Compton.

278
00:16:24.440 --> 00:16:27.799
<v Speaker 1>We're going to talk with Compton District Superintendent, doctor Darren

279
00:16:27.799 --> 00:16:30.600
<v Speaker 1>Brawley to find out what the heck Compton is doing

280
00:16:30.679 --> 00:16:33.799
<v Speaker 1>right and how its kids are thriving. Can't wait to

281
00:16:33.840 --> 00:16:37.360
<v Speaker 1>hear from him. Let's say good morning now to ABC's

282
00:16:37.519 --> 00:16:39.799
<v Speaker 1>Jim Ryan something else I can't wait to hear about.

283
00:16:39.919 --> 00:16:42.320
<v Speaker 1>This could be huge. There could be a way to

284
00:16:42.759 --> 00:16:45.559
<v Speaker 1>treat potentially deadly peanut allergies.

285
00:16:45.720 --> 00:16:49.279
<v Speaker 11>Yes, you never heard of Mithruditis. The sixth uh No,

286
00:16:49.799 --> 00:16:52.600
<v Speaker 11>Mathrudities the sixth was the ruler of the kingdom of

287
00:16:52.759 --> 00:16:57.159
<v Speaker 11>Pontus from one twenty to sixty three BC. I'll tell

288
00:16:57.159 --> 00:17:00.039
<v Speaker 11>you that because Mathrudites was terrified of being poised, and

289
00:17:00.200 --> 00:17:02.440
<v Speaker 11>his father had been poisoned to death, maybe by his

290
00:17:02.480 --> 00:17:06.119
<v Speaker 11>own mother. So here's what Methriderts did the sixth He

291
00:17:06.240 --> 00:17:10.720
<v Speaker 11>started taking daily doses, little tiny amounts of poison to

292
00:17:10.799 --> 00:17:14.680
<v Speaker 11>inure himself, to get himself conditioned against poison, to give

293
00:17:14.720 --> 00:17:19.279
<v Speaker 11>himself immunity. That's all relevant here because researchers at Mount

294
00:17:19.279 --> 00:17:22.440
<v Speaker 11>Sinai say that that's one way to help kids get

295
00:17:22.480 --> 00:17:26.079
<v Speaker 11>over peanut allergies. Not all kids, but some kids. If

296
00:17:26.079 --> 00:17:28.960
<v Speaker 11>they have there's some tolerance to peanuts, If they can

297
00:17:29.000 --> 00:17:31.880
<v Speaker 11>eat half a peanut, and that's about eight hundred thousand

298
00:17:31.880 --> 00:17:36.359
<v Speaker 11>peanut allergy kids, they may be candidates for this kind

299
00:17:36.400 --> 00:17:41.240
<v Speaker 11>of treatment, getting small doses of peanut butter every day

300
00:17:41.759 --> 00:17:45.400
<v Speaker 11>until they build up an immunity against peanut allergy and

301
00:17:45.480 --> 00:17:47.839
<v Speaker 11>they can walk in and they won't be terrified of

302
00:17:48.160 --> 00:17:50.799
<v Speaker 11>running into peanuts at the school cafeteria or whatever.

303
00:17:52.519 --> 00:17:54.759
<v Speaker 4>So if it works, a little dabble do.

304
00:17:54.920 --> 00:17:57.720
<v Speaker 11>You, a little dabble doo you? It doesn't matter if

305
00:17:57.759 --> 00:17:59.519
<v Speaker 11>it's crunchy or creamy.

306
00:18:00.440 --> 00:18:02.200
<v Speaker 4>I am not a crunchy peanut butter fan.

307
00:18:03.240 --> 00:18:03.440
<v Speaker 8>Are you?

308
00:18:03.640 --> 00:18:04.319
<v Speaker 11>That's it's wrong?

309
00:18:04.519 --> 00:18:06.160
<v Speaker 4>I know, I like creamy is the way to go.

310
00:18:07.039 --> 00:18:09.720
<v Speaker 11>Cream creamy peanut butter should be outlawed. I think crunchy

311
00:18:09.759 --> 00:18:14.680
<v Speaker 11>should be all that's sold. Really yeah, oh I'm sorry, Jim.

312
00:18:15.720 --> 00:18:16.720
<v Speaker 4>Our first bite.

313
00:18:18.720 --> 00:18:21.319
<v Speaker 1>Okay, So anyway, this is actually when we're having fun

314
00:18:21.319 --> 00:18:23.960
<v Speaker 1>with it. But peanut allergies are pretty severe. Like you

315
00:18:24.000 --> 00:18:26.359
<v Speaker 1>said that, people they walk into a place and they're

316
00:18:26.400 --> 00:18:28.920
<v Speaker 1>worried they're going to be exposed. Because what happens when

317
00:18:28.920 --> 00:18:31.119
<v Speaker 1>you when you have a reaction to peanuts.

318
00:18:31.359 --> 00:18:34.200
<v Speaker 11>Sure, yeah, the kid's going to go into anaphylactic shock.

319
00:18:34.799 --> 00:18:37.160
<v Speaker 11>It can be extremely serious, you know. And so then

320
00:18:37.200 --> 00:18:41.319
<v Speaker 11>that's why most school cafeterias don't have peanut butter on

321
00:18:41.400 --> 00:18:43.960
<v Speaker 11>the menu. They keep the peanut butter peanuts out of there.

322
00:18:44.119 --> 00:18:46.200
<v Speaker 11>You see on jars of food that you might buy.

323
00:18:46.519 --> 00:18:48.880
<v Speaker 11>This was processed in a plant that also deals with

324
00:18:48.920 --> 00:18:53.440
<v Speaker 11>peanuts to warm people against this. Now, whether there are

325
00:18:53.440 --> 00:18:56.880
<v Speaker 11>more cases of peanut allergy or whether we're simply more

326
00:18:56.920 --> 00:18:59.960
<v Speaker 11>aware of it now, you know, it's irrelevant, because they're

327
00:19:00.160 --> 00:19:03.559
<v Speaker 11>is this new potential way to deal with it. Previously

328
00:19:03.599 --> 00:19:05.640
<v Speaker 11>parents were told if their kids had a penatalogy, Joe,

329
00:19:05.640 --> 00:19:08.279
<v Speaker 11>I'll keep them away from peanuts. Now they're saying that

330
00:19:08.359 --> 00:19:10.160
<v Speaker 11>some of these kids in it, and not all of them,

331
00:19:10.480 --> 00:19:13.799
<v Speaker 11>only those with some tolerance that they may be able

332
00:19:13.839 --> 00:19:16.319
<v Speaker 11>to essentially get over their peanutalogy.

333
00:19:17.079 --> 00:19:19.519
<v Speaker 1>And then for the ones who you said they can

334
00:19:19.640 --> 00:19:22.119
<v Speaker 1>tolerate half a peanut, like so they can have a

335
00:19:22.119 --> 00:19:22.880
<v Speaker 1>little tiny bit.

336
00:19:22.920 --> 00:19:23.920
<v Speaker 4>But no, it's not.

337
00:19:24.279 --> 00:19:27.440
<v Speaker 1>But if they if they can tolerate a little bit,

338
00:19:28.039 --> 00:19:31.759
<v Speaker 1>isn't there still a risk of giving even a little

339
00:19:31.920 --> 00:19:35.039
<v Speaker 1>peanut butter to somebody who has a penutnalergy?

340
00:19:36.000 --> 00:19:38.759
<v Speaker 11>Right, And that's why you know, pediatricians don't want you

341
00:19:38.880 --> 00:19:40.799
<v Speaker 11>suddenly feeding your kid a bunch of peanut butter if

342
00:19:41.000 --> 00:19:44.240
<v Speaker 11>if they have peanut allergy. You have to work in

343
00:19:44.880 --> 00:19:50.359
<v Speaker 11>concert with your doctor. You know this this research is

344
00:19:50.400 --> 00:19:52.720
<v Speaker 11>fairly young, It was a fairly small group. They're going

345
00:19:52.759 --> 00:19:55.920
<v Speaker 11>to try to expand it out and and you know,

346
00:19:56.000 --> 00:19:58.920
<v Speaker 11>test more children this way. So yeah, don't suddenly dump

347
00:19:58.960 --> 00:20:01.000
<v Speaker 11>peanut butter down your kids throat if he has a

348
00:20:01.599 --> 00:20:04.319
<v Speaker 11>peanut allergy. They're also this is interesting. They're going to

349
00:20:04.359 --> 00:20:07.839
<v Speaker 11>expand it not just to a broader audience of peanut

350
00:20:08.000 --> 00:20:12.119
<v Speaker 11>allergy suffers, but also other food allergy suffers. Is maybe

351
00:20:12.200 --> 00:20:14.400
<v Speaker 11>if you have seafood allergy, a little tiny bit of

352
00:20:15.119 --> 00:20:19.720
<v Speaker 11>you know, tuda fish or something or shellfish might help

353
00:20:19.759 --> 00:20:21.519
<v Speaker 11>you to get over that. So there's still a lot

354
00:20:21.519 --> 00:20:22.720
<v Speaker 11>of research to be done.

355
00:20:22.880 --> 00:20:24.599
<v Speaker 4>Okay, that's a that's cool though.

356
00:20:24.599 --> 00:20:27.240
<v Speaker 1>I mean because I know that I know people who

357
00:20:27.279 --> 00:20:30.279
<v Speaker 1>have shellfish allergies and they're like, if I even smell it,

358
00:20:30.319 --> 00:20:32.319
<v Speaker 1>I can have a reaction, And that's that's got to

359
00:20:32.359 --> 00:20:33.039
<v Speaker 1>be pretty scary.

360
00:20:33.200 --> 00:20:34.640
<v Speaker 11>Yeah, food allergies are a bad deal.

361
00:20:34.759 --> 00:20:37.680
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, So when we're growing up, no one had them.

362
00:20:37.720 --> 00:20:40.359
<v Speaker 1>We all had peanuts on the plane, always fine, peanut

363
00:20:40.400 --> 00:20:42.960
<v Speaker 1>butter and jelly sandwiches or served for lunch at school.

364
00:20:43.079 --> 00:20:44.039
<v Speaker 4>What changed?

365
00:20:44.119 --> 00:20:46.799
<v Speaker 1>Why are they having these allergies?

366
00:20:46.920 --> 00:20:49.680
<v Speaker 11>Either that or you're flying along and eating your peanuts

367
00:20:49.720 --> 00:20:51.839
<v Speaker 11>and the passenger next to you starts getting an itchy

368
00:20:51.920 --> 00:20:54.599
<v Speaker 11>throat and eyes watering and you know, the throat is

369
00:20:54.640 --> 00:20:57.000
<v Speaker 11>starting and they may not even realize it. It might not

370
00:20:56.839 --> 00:20:59.359
<v Speaker 11>have known that this was happening, that they had it.

371
00:20:59.400 --> 00:21:02.160
<v Speaker 11>I think it is raised awareness. It increased awareness. But

372
00:21:02.440 --> 00:21:07.240
<v Speaker 11>I suspect that, you know, as as as people, as

373
00:21:07.480 --> 00:21:10.680
<v Speaker 11>time has gone on, more people are getting these allergies.

374
00:21:10.960 --> 00:21:13.880
<v Speaker 4>You know, we just don't know why, right exactly?

375
00:21:14.039 --> 00:21:16.279
<v Speaker 1>All right, Well, and it could, like you said, it

376
00:21:16.279 --> 00:21:18.440
<v Speaker 1>could just be a numbers game. We just know about

377
00:21:18.440 --> 00:21:21.200
<v Speaker 1>it now because there's more of us, right, Okay, Well,

378
00:21:21.279 --> 00:21:23.799
<v Speaker 1>hopefully this, uh, this leads to something. I think it's

379
00:21:23.839 --> 00:21:25.240
<v Speaker 1>a great potential.

380
00:21:24.839 --> 00:21:27.480
<v Speaker 11>And it reminds me to use the six well, you.

381
00:21:27.400 --> 00:21:28.400
<v Speaker 4>Know what it reminds us of.

382
00:21:28.480 --> 00:21:30.279
<v Speaker 1>I got a note from my editor, Carlo, and she

383
00:21:30.319 --> 00:21:32.559
<v Speaker 1>said it sounds like the dread pirate Roberts and the

384
00:21:32.680 --> 00:21:36.400
<v Speaker 1>Roberts and the iokane powder from the Princess Bride.

385
00:21:36.680 --> 00:21:37.480
<v Speaker 11>Princess Bride.

386
00:21:37.559 --> 00:21:37.799
<v Speaker 4>Yeah.

387
00:21:38.079 --> 00:21:40.559
<v Speaker 11>See, I didn't know which one would be more relatable

388
00:21:40.599 --> 00:21:42.720
<v Speaker 11>to you, whether it would be the Princess Bride or

389
00:21:42.759 --> 00:21:46.039
<v Speaker 11>Mathrudidius the Sixth. I figured Mathrudiitis the sixth. Thanks Jim,

390
00:21:46.119 --> 00:21:49.880
<v Speaker 11>because by the way, what the guy in print was

391
00:21:49.920 --> 00:21:55.119
<v Speaker 11>practicing you know, poisoning himself. It's called mathruditism, that's what

392
00:21:55.160 --> 00:21:55.640
<v Speaker 11>they call it.

393
00:21:55.680 --> 00:21:59.160
<v Speaker 1>See you guys, we all learned something today, all right,

394
00:21:59.240 --> 00:22:00.519
<v Speaker 1>Jim Ryan, thank you so much.

395
00:22:01.119 --> 00:22:01.480
<v Speaker 11>See yah.

396
00:22:01.519 --> 00:22:01.880
<v Speaker 8>All right.

397
00:22:01.960 --> 00:22:05.000
<v Speaker 1>Police in Germany say at least twenty seven people have

398
00:22:05.039 --> 00:22:07.440
<v Speaker 1>been hurt by a car that plowed into a crowd

399
00:22:07.519 --> 00:22:10.079
<v Speaker 1>in the city of Munich. Officials have called it a

400
00:22:10.160 --> 00:22:14.000
<v Speaker 1>suspected attack. Vice President Fans and Secretary of State Marco

401
00:22:14.119 --> 00:22:17.000
<v Speaker 1>Rubio are expected to attend a major security conference in

402
00:22:17.160 --> 00:22:21.559
<v Speaker 1>Munich tomorrow. President Trump has repeated his calls to dismantle

403
00:22:21.599 --> 00:22:24.599
<v Speaker 1>the federal Department of Education. He says it's a massive

404
00:22:24.920 --> 00:22:28.759
<v Speaker 1>and wasteful bureaucracy that should be divided up among the states.

405
00:22:28.880 --> 00:22:30.680
<v Speaker 4>Oh, I'd like it to be closed immediately.

406
00:22:30.680 --> 00:22:33.400
<v Speaker 5>Look, the Department of Education's a big conjob.

407
00:22:34.480 --> 00:22:38.720
<v Speaker 1>Independent Vermont Senator Bernie Sanders says he believes cutting program

408
00:22:38.799 --> 00:22:43.000
<v Speaker 1>after program, including education, is aimed at giving massive tax

409
00:22:43.039 --> 00:22:45.920
<v Speaker 1>breaks to the richest people in the US. Some people

410
00:22:45.960 --> 00:22:49.079
<v Speaker 1>in southern California looking for eggs amid the bird flew

411
00:22:49.200 --> 00:22:53.599
<v Speaker 1>shortage are bypassing stores and going directly to the source.

412
00:22:53.720 --> 00:22:56.359
<v Speaker 1>A customer at Billy's Egg Farm and Chino said she

413
00:22:56.400 --> 00:22:59.000
<v Speaker 1>waited forty minutes to get her eggs, and the eggs

414
00:22:59.039 --> 00:23:01.839
<v Speaker 1>for the day were sold out by eleven am. Eggs

415
00:23:01.880 --> 00:23:04.599
<v Speaker 1>some farms are selling for about sixteen bucks a dozen.

416
00:23:05.000 --> 00:23:07.480
<v Speaker 1>Officials say prices are not expected to drop back down

417
00:23:07.559 --> 00:23:10.880
<v Speaker 1>until new chickens start laying eggs, and that takes about

418
00:23:10.880 --> 00:23:15.920
<v Speaker 1>six months. A farmer in Connecticut has started renting out

419
00:23:16.000 --> 00:23:18.640
<v Speaker 1>chickens to help people deal with the high egg prices

420
00:23:18.680 --> 00:23:20.279
<v Speaker 1>and shortages. We run the chickens.

421
00:23:20.359 --> 00:23:23.440
<v Speaker 2>We bring everything for them, from the little coop to

422
00:23:23.519 --> 00:23:24.920
<v Speaker 2>the food, everything you need.

423
00:23:25.400 --> 00:23:28.119
<v Speaker 1>Farmer Joe, Yeah, that's his name, says it costs about

424
00:23:28.119 --> 00:23:30.720
<v Speaker 1>five hundred dollars to rent two chickens for six months,

425
00:23:30.799 --> 00:23:33.880
<v Speaker 1>five hundred bucks and they'll provide up to two dozen

426
00:23:33.960 --> 00:23:36.599
<v Speaker 1>eggs per week. That works out to about eighty cents

427
00:23:36.640 --> 00:23:39.759
<v Speaker 1>per egg. The cost of eggs has jumped fifteen percent

428
00:23:39.799 --> 00:23:42.079
<v Speaker 1>in just a month, driven of course, in large part

429
00:23:42.119 --> 00:23:45.480
<v Speaker 1>by the bird flu. Crews have been working to empty

430
00:23:45.640 --> 00:23:50.240
<v Speaker 1>debris basins, clear storm drains, and distribute sandbags to residents

431
00:23:50.319 --> 00:23:52.400
<v Speaker 1>to get ready for the heavy rain that could trigger

432
00:23:52.599 --> 00:23:56.160
<v Speaker 1>debris flows in flooding. A flash flood watch goes into

433
00:23:56.200 --> 00:23:58.119
<v Speaker 1>effect this morning, with one to three inches of rain

434
00:23:58.160 --> 00:24:00.839
<v Speaker 1>possible for the coastal and valley area, is three to

435
00:24:00.920 --> 00:24:04.440
<v Speaker 1>six inches possible in the foothills and mountains. Two fighter

436
00:24:04.599 --> 00:24:07.920
<v Speaker 1>pilots have safely ejected from their F eighteen fighter jet

437
00:24:07.960 --> 00:24:10.799
<v Speaker 1>before it crashed into San Diego Bay near Shelter Island.

438
00:24:11.160 --> 00:24:14.720
<v Speaker 1>The crash happened shortly after ten am yesterday. Booms have

439
00:24:14.799 --> 00:24:17.079
<v Speaker 1>been put into the water to contain the crash site

440
00:24:17.400 --> 00:24:19.359
<v Speaker 1>and the base off limits to boters while the crash

441
00:24:19.440 --> 00:24:23.559
<v Speaker 1>is investigated. The pilots are okay. Apple Maps is following

442
00:24:23.640 --> 00:24:27.039
<v Speaker 1>Google's lead and is renaming the Gulf of Mexico to

443
00:24:27.240 --> 00:24:30.319
<v Speaker 1>the Gulf of America. The change in response to an

444
00:24:30.359 --> 00:24:33.960
<v Speaker 1>executive order from President Trump. Google updated all of its

445
00:24:34.000 --> 00:24:36.680
<v Speaker 1>maps this week and they now identify the body of

446
00:24:36.799 --> 00:24:40.279
<v Speaker 1>water as the Gulf of America. At six oh five,

447
00:24:40.440 --> 00:24:43.640
<v Speaker 1>handle on the news about seventy five thousand workers say okay,

448
00:24:44.400 --> 00:24:47.160
<v Speaker 1>I'll take the deal, and a judge says that deal

449
00:24:47.279 --> 00:24:48.440
<v Speaker 1>can move forward.

450
00:24:49.839 --> 00:24:54.920
<v Speaker 2>Amy's on it, Aami's on it, Amy's on.

451
00:24:54.960 --> 00:24:57.240
<v Speaker 6>It, Gami's on it.

452
00:24:59.359 --> 00:24:59.880
<v Speaker 4>What am I on?

453
00:25:00.160 --> 00:25:02.279
<v Speaker 1>Well? For the next couple of weeks at least, I'm

454
00:25:02.400 --> 00:25:09.599
<v Speaker 1>on Academy and SAG Nominated Performances movies because the awards

455
00:25:09.799 --> 00:25:13.359
<v Speaker 1>season is upon us. We've already had the Golden Globes

456
00:25:13.640 --> 00:25:18.200
<v Speaker 1>and they did the Producers Awards and the Director's Guild Awards.

457
00:25:19.119 --> 00:25:21.079
<v Speaker 1>The SAG Awards are coming up in a couple of weeks,

458
00:25:21.440 --> 00:25:24.000
<v Speaker 1>and then of course the Academy Awards, the big Daddy

459
00:25:24.119 --> 00:25:28.039
<v Speaker 1>that's March second. So I'm watching some of these movies

460
00:25:28.079 --> 00:25:30.720
<v Speaker 1>because I am a SAG member, so I am able

461
00:25:30.759 --> 00:25:32.799
<v Speaker 1>to screen those because I'll be voting on what I

462
00:25:32.799 --> 00:25:36.079
<v Speaker 1>think are the best ones. And I was going to

463
00:25:36.160 --> 00:25:40.000
<v Speaker 1>be talking about Anora today, so that's in defensive cono.

464
00:25:40.440 --> 00:25:42.319
<v Speaker 1>It was going to be Anor today, but we're going

465
00:25:42.359 --> 00:25:44.160
<v Speaker 1>to hold off on that one because as I was

466
00:25:44.240 --> 00:25:48.440
<v Speaker 1>perusing stuff yesterday, I was like, you know, I haven't

467
00:25:48.440 --> 00:25:52.079
<v Speaker 1>heard much about this Sing Sing show except that Will Gance,

468
00:25:52.559 --> 00:25:57.039
<v Speaker 1>our ABC entertainment guy last week, said Hey, Coleman Domingo's

469
00:25:57.039 --> 00:25:59.519
<v Speaker 1>performance is really good and the movie's really good, so

470
00:25:59.759 --> 00:26:04.240
<v Speaker 1>I'll check that out. Okay, So Sing Sing it may

471
00:26:04.240 --> 00:26:07.519
<v Speaker 1>be streaming. I'm trying to find a definitive answer. But

472
00:26:08.759 --> 00:26:11.799
<v Speaker 1>it wasn't available, but they're saying it was available starting

473
00:26:11.880 --> 00:26:15.480
<v Speaker 1>January thirty, first, but I haven't found it yet. It

474
00:26:15.599 --> 00:26:18.079
<v Speaker 1>is still playing at the Lemley in North Hollywood. But

475
00:26:18.160 --> 00:26:23.200
<v Speaker 1>that's kind of about it. Coleman Domingo plays an inmate

476
00:26:23.319 --> 00:26:27.160
<v Speaker 1>named Divine G. He's in Sing Sing in New York,

477
00:26:27.759 --> 00:26:32.720
<v Speaker 1>serving time for murder. And then this cast you don't

478
00:26:32.720 --> 00:26:35.680
<v Speaker 1>really recognize many other people in the cast. There's the

479
00:26:35.759 --> 00:26:37.559
<v Speaker 1>one guy who plays the director in the movie you

480
00:26:37.640 --> 00:26:42.440
<v Speaker 1>might recognize, but then there's Clarence Macklin. Well, it turns

481
00:26:42.440 --> 00:26:47.440
<v Speaker 1>out that Clarence Macklin is actually Clarence the I Maclin

482
00:26:48.160 --> 00:26:51.759
<v Speaker 1>who was an inmate at Sing Sing. And then there's

483
00:26:51.839 --> 00:26:58.279
<v Speaker 1>John Adrian Velasquez who plays himself and David Garatti who

484
00:26:58.319 --> 00:27:02.759
<v Speaker 1>plays himself so well, along with some actors they had

485
00:27:02.880 --> 00:27:07.039
<v Speaker 1>inmates from Sing Sing playing the roles of the movie,

486
00:27:07.200 --> 00:27:10.000
<v Speaker 1>which kind of adds a really interesting twist to it.

487
00:27:10.079 --> 00:27:14.799
<v Speaker 1>And I'm telling you they're pretty good. Oh it's really like, Wow,

488
00:27:15.599 --> 00:27:18.480
<v Speaker 1>the real Divine G has a cameo. This is based

489
00:27:18.480 --> 00:27:22.400
<v Speaker 1>on a true story. But there's big bag criminals serving

490
00:27:22.440 --> 00:27:26.079
<v Speaker 1>time for really bad crimes in Sing In Sing Sign

491
00:27:26.359 --> 00:27:29.359
<v Speaker 1>in Sing Sing, and so what do they do to

492
00:27:29.440 --> 00:27:34.599
<v Speaker 1>cope with their life behind bars? Well, one group acts

493
00:27:35.240 --> 00:27:37.519
<v Speaker 1>it's a group that gets together. They put on places

494
00:27:37.519 --> 00:27:41.759
<v Speaker 1>for the inmates. It's called Rehabilitation through the Arts or RTA,

495
00:27:41.839 --> 00:27:45.960
<v Speaker 1>and it does exist in real life. The movie doesn't

496
00:27:45.960 --> 00:27:49.960
<v Speaker 1>move very fast. It's slow, it's intraceptive, and it is

497
00:27:50.160 --> 00:27:54.640
<v Speaker 1>so darn fun to watch. Through the rehearsals, you learn

498
00:27:54.720 --> 00:27:56.920
<v Speaker 1>about the men. You see them open up a little bit.

499
00:27:57.119 --> 00:28:00.319
<v Speaker 1>You see through the tough exterior and kind of into

500
00:28:00.359 --> 00:28:04.519
<v Speaker 1>the soul inside. And as I'm watching this movie, about

501
00:28:04.559 --> 00:28:07.160
<v Speaker 1>halfway through, they're rehearsing their lines for this play they're

502
00:28:07.200 --> 00:28:10.920
<v Speaker 1>gonna do. They're acting out the scenes. There's this beautiful score.

503
00:28:10.960 --> 00:28:13.960
<v Speaker 1>I love the music in this show playing in the background.

504
00:28:14.039 --> 00:28:16.519
<v Speaker 1>I just started crying and I was like, what the

505
00:28:16.559 --> 00:28:18.680
<v Speaker 1>heck is going on because it was just like this

506
00:28:18.880 --> 00:28:23.920
<v Speaker 1>beautiful moment in this movie. And it shows that through

507
00:28:24.680 --> 00:28:28.480
<v Speaker 1>their art, through doing these shows and acting and doing

508
00:28:28.480 --> 00:28:32.039
<v Speaker 1>the whole process of acting and stuff, the men gain hope.

509
00:28:32.880 --> 00:28:35.400
<v Speaker 1>Of course, it's not all happy, happy, joy joy, because

510
00:28:35.519 --> 00:28:38.440
<v Speaker 1>they are in sing sing and they're convicted criminals, and

511
00:28:38.720 --> 00:28:41.319
<v Speaker 1>all these people have done horrible things, or at least

512
00:28:41.359 --> 00:28:43.359
<v Speaker 1>most of them. You'll find out during the movie about that.

513
00:28:44.039 --> 00:28:47.119
<v Speaker 1>But I am so excited because I think this is

514
00:28:47.200 --> 00:28:50.240
<v Speaker 1>actually a movie that should be Academy An Award nominated.

515
00:28:50.279 --> 00:28:51.720
<v Speaker 1>I think there are so many that you just go

516
00:28:51.839 --> 00:28:53.920
<v Speaker 1>what what are they doing? And it's sort of like

517
00:28:53.920 --> 00:28:56.559
<v Speaker 1>an insider thing, like the people in the Academy are like, oh,

518
00:28:56.559 --> 00:28:59.559
<v Speaker 1>that's beautiful, but for you and me, it's kind of like,

519
00:28:59.640 --> 00:29:02.519
<v Speaker 1>what the heck? That's not a great movie. This, I

520
00:29:02.559 --> 00:29:05.680
<v Speaker 1>think is a really good movie. My favorite line that

521
00:29:05.799 --> 00:29:08.200
<v Speaker 1>is so fitting for it is who would have thought

522
00:29:08.720 --> 00:29:12.119
<v Speaker 1>that healing would have started behind these walls of sing sing?

523
00:29:13.039 --> 00:29:15.839
<v Speaker 1>It is sing sing, I'm on it. I hope that

524
00:29:15.920 --> 00:29:20.839
<v Speaker 1>you will be too, really really a really good movie. Okay,

525
00:29:20.839 --> 00:29:24.000
<v Speaker 1>do we have Courtney with us? Okay, great for you.

526
00:29:24.319 --> 00:29:28.400
<v Speaker 1>It's time to get in your business with Bloomberg's Courtney Donahoe.

527
00:29:28.480 --> 00:29:33.359
<v Speaker 4>Good morning, Courtney, good morning, Happy Thursday. Happy Thursday.

528
00:29:33.880 --> 00:29:37.799
<v Speaker 1>Well except if you work at Joanne Fabrics, oh.

529
00:29:37.599 --> 00:29:40.079
<v Speaker 6>It's not so happy Thursday, or even if you love

530
00:29:40.160 --> 00:29:44.319
<v Speaker 6>going to the store. Cross retailer Joanne is closing more

531
00:29:44.359 --> 00:29:48.200
<v Speaker 6>than half of its stores nationwide. That's about five hundred locations.

532
00:29:48.240 --> 00:29:51.400
<v Speaker 6>That is a lot of stores. Last month, the company

533
00:29:51.400 --> 00:29:54.359
<v Speaker 6>Faultford Chapter eleven bankruptcy for the second time in less

534
00:29:54.400 --> 00:29:57.480
<v Speaker 6>than a year. Joanne says it's right sizing its store

535
00:29:57.640 --> 00:30:00.079
<v Speaker 6>footprint because that's going to be a critical part of

536
00:30:00.119 --> 00:30:03.599
<v Speaker 6>their efforts to ensure their best path forward. About sixty

537
00:30:03.640 --> 00:30:06.079
<v Speaker 6>locations in California are on the list to close.

538
00:30:06.200 --> 00:30:07.880
<v Speaker 4>Yikes, okay, so what does that mean?

539
00:30:07.880 --> 00:30:12.240
<v Speaker 1>Though, it's right sizing too, Yeah, right, I mean, I

540
00:30:12.279 --> 00:30:14.640
<v Speaker 1>know that they do a bunch of word salad on that,

541
00:30:14.759 --> 00:30:16.599
<v Speaker 1>but what does it really mean. It just means that

542
00:30:16.640 --> 00:30:20.920
<v Speaker 1>they've got to cut. Yes, it's to survive. They've got

543
00:30:20.920 --> 00:30:23.559
<v Speaker 1>to cut labor costs. They've got to cut their footprint

544
00:30:23.599 --> 00:30:28.920
<v Speaker 1>because of course it's very expensive to have these different stores,

545
00:30:29.119 --> 00:30:32.480
<v Speaker 1>whether it's rental or whether they actually outright.

546
00:30:32.039 --> 00:30:34.400
<v Speaker 6>Own that property. It's a lot of money there. And

547
00:30:34.480 --> 00:30:37.759
<v Speaker 6>then also keeping their inventory on hand, and it has

548
00:30:37.960 --> 00:30:41.039
<v Speaker 6>been a struggle for them to keep inventory, especially after

549
00:30:41.079 --> 00:30:42.440
<v Speaker 6>they went through bankruptcy.

550
00:30:42.480 --> 00:30:43.480
<v Speaker 4>A lot of vendors are.

551
00:30:43.400 --> 00:30:46.599
<v Speaker 6>Saying, well, I don't know about giving you our products

552
00:30:46.640 --> 00:30:50.839
<v Speaker 6>because are we going to get paid for that? So

553
00:30:51.119 --> 00:30:52.880
<v Speaker 6>I don't know, We're going to be probably seeing a

554
00:30:52.880 --> 00:30:55.240
<v Speaker 6>couple of different sales going on. I know the Joe

555
00:30:55.240 --> 00:30:58.680
<v Speaker 6>Anne right by me in Scarsdale, New York is closing down,

556
00:30:58.720 --> 00:31:01.079
<v Speaker 6>So I'm sure my children people want to go there

557
00:31:01.480 --> 00:31:03.200
<v Speaker 6>and be able to stuck up on lots and lots

558
00:31:03.240 --> 00:31:03.720
<v Speaker 6>of crafts.

559
00:31:04.039 --> 00:31:06.119
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, and it's so specialized because you go there when

560
00:31:06.160 --> 00:31:08.559
<v Speaker 1>you want to make something, so you need specific amounts.

561
00:31:08.599 --> 00:31:10.960
<v Speaker 1>So it'll be just interesting to see if they can

562
00:31:11.000 --> 00:31:13.319
<v Speaker 1>move part of that online and have that be successful.

563
00:31:13.599 --> 00:31:16.640
<v Speaker 6>Yeah, and that also has been Speaking of online, that's

564
00:31:16.640 --> 00:31:19.079
<v Speaker 6>been an issue for them. A lot of times people

565
00:31:19.079 --> 00:31:21.119
<v Speaker 6>go to Amazon to be able to get their crafts.

566
00:31:21.480 --> 00:31:24.480
<v Speaker 6>And Michael's has been continuing to grow throughout the country

567
00:31:24.480 --> 00:31:29.000
<v Speaker 6>and they've been a force as a rival against Joe Anne.

568
00:31:29.119 --> 00:31:31.319
<v Speaker 6>But a lot of retailers out there have struggled over

569
00:31:31.359 --> 00:31:34.440
<v Speaker 6>the past couple of years due to inflation obviously that's

570
00:31:34.480 --> 00:31:37.000
<v Speaker 6>been on the rise and sluggish consumer spending.

571
00:31:37.160 --> 00:31:40.519
<v Speaker 1>Okay, and speaking of spending and markets and all of

572
00:31:40.559 --> 00:31:43.279
<v Speaker 1>that stuff, anything exciting happening today on Well Street.

573
00:31:43.759 --> 00:31:46.799
<v Speaker 6>Yesterday was a big day because we had inflation data

574
00:31:46.960 --> 00:31:49.960
<v Speaker 6>that came in higher than expected. So some items like

575
00:31:50.039 --> 00:31:54.039
<v Speaker 6>prescription drugs and parking fees, that's all the biggest monthly

576
00:31:54.079 --> 00:31:56.680
<v Speaker 6>price gain on record, insurance and of course eggs. We

577
00:31:56.680 --> 00:31:58.880
<v Speaker 6>talk about eggs all the time. That jumped the most

578
00:31:58.880 --> 00:32:01.279
<v Speaker 6>in about a decade, but it was some relief elsewhere.

579
00:32:01.839 --> 00:32:04.480
<v Speaker 6>It might help folks this Valentine's Day. It was the

580
00:32:04.559 --> 00:32:08.119
<v Speaker 6>largest monthly decline for jewelry since twenty nineteen. Along with

581
00:32:08.160 --> 00:32:12.119
<v Speaker 6>cakes and cupcakes. I actually wish the Valentine's Day chochkes

582
00:32:12.160 --> 00:32:13.319
<v Speaker 6>for my son's class.

583
00:32:13.359 --> 00:32:15.119
<v Speaker 4>I wish that was cheaper. I'm going to be doing

584
00:32:15.200 --> 00:32:16.279
<v Speaker 4>that this afternoon.

585
00:32:16.920 --> 00:32:18.759
<v Speaker 6>But taking a look at the market's a little bit

586
00:32:18.839 --> 00:32:21.200
<v Speaker 6>better than what we saw. Yesterday's stocks were lower, but

587
00:32:21.400 --> 00:32:24.440
<v Speaker 6>right now DAL futures are up eighty five points, so

588
00:32:24.599 --> 00:32:26.640
<v Speaker 6>we're pointing to a higher day in the markets.

589
00:32:26.720 --> 00:32:30.920
<v Speaker 1>All right, Bloomberg's Courtney, Donna, thank you so much. Appreciate later,

590
00:32:31.079 --> 00:32:32.920
<v Speaker 1>talk to you tomorrow. You know, we talked to Courtney

591
00:32:33.000 --> 00:32:35.759
<v Speaker 1>every day to find out what's going on with your business.

592
00:32:36.319 --> 00:32:38.079
<v Speaker 1>Let's get back to some of the stories coming out

593
00:32:38.119 --> 00:32:41.319
<v Speaker 1>of the KFI twenty four hour newsroom. Evacuation warnings we'll

594
00:32:41.319 --> 00:32:43.759
<v Speaker 1>go into effect at eight this morning for areas close

595
00:32:43.759 --> 00:32:47.079
<v Speaker 1>to the airport fire burn scar in Orange County. That

596
00:32:47.160 --> 00:32:49.680
<v Speaker 1>fire in the San Anna Mountains in September and October

597
00:32:49.720 --> 00:32:53.720
<v Speaker 1>burned into Riverside County. The warnings cover Tribuco Canyon, Hot

599
00:32:58.279 --> 00:33:00.839
<v Speaker 1>say they issued the warnings bease because the heavy rain

600
00:33:00.880 --> 00:33:04.720
<v Speaker 1>could cause mudslides and debrief flows. Voters in La may

601
00:33:04.759 --> 00:33:07.359
<v Speaker 1>be asked to borrow some money to improve the city's

602
00:33:07.400 --> 00:33:08.160
<v Speaker 1>fire departments.

603
00:33:08.200 --> 00:33:10.079
<v Speaker 3>The bond measure could be on a future ballot to

604
00:33:10.079 --> 00:33:12.839
<v Speaker 3>help beef up equipment, maybe build new stations, and to

605
00:33:12.880 --> 00:33:17.359
<v Speaker 3>improve infrastructure. City Councilwoman Monica Rodriguez says, the recent wildfires

606
00:33:17.359 --> 00:33:18.319
<v Speaker 3>have proven a need.

607
00:33:18.519 --> 00:33:21.599
<v Speaker 6>We know their need is there. We know there's a

608
00:33:21.640 --> 00:33:24.519
<v Speaker 6>sense of urgency for all of us collectively to start

609
00:33:24.559 --> 00:33:27.279
<v Speaker 6>working on this, and so that's why we're trying to

610
00:33:27.359 --> 00:33:29.200
<v Speaker 6>advance this as quickly as possible.

611
00:33:29.279 --> 00:33:32.000
<v Speaker 3>The issue was sent to a council committee for further discussion.

612
00:33:32.279 --> 00:33:34.799
<v Speaker 3>In the meantime, the council approved a request for city

613
00:33:34.839 --> 00:33:38.480
<v Speaker 3>administrators to figure out ways to generate more general revenue.

615
00:33:40.799 --> 00:33:43.680
<v Speaker 1>A city in San Diego County has passed an immigration

616
00:33:44.039 --> 00:33:47.960
<v Speaker 1>enforcement resolution on its third try. The city of Alcoholane

617
00:33:48.079 --> 00:33:51.160
<v Speaker 1>voted in favor of the resolution, confirming it will work

618
00:33:51.200 --> 00:33:55.160
<v Speaker 1>with federal immigration authorities to remove illegal immigrants as much

619
00:33:55.240 --> 00:33:58.319
<v Speaker 1>as state law will allow. The resolution also asked the

620
00:33:58.400 --> 00:34:01.880
<v Speaker 1>US Attorney General to protect city police officers if they

621
00:34:01.960 --> 00:34:06.640
<v Speaker 1>help or cooperate with federal immigration authorities. Elon Musk's social

622
00:34:06.680 --> 00:34:09.239
<v Speaker 1>media platform x has agreed to pay about ten million

623
00:34:09.280 --> 00:34:12.280
<v Speaker 1>dollars to settle a lawsuit by President Trump over the

624
00:34:12.320 --> 00:34:15.639
<v Speaker 1>suspension of his accounts after the January sixth attack on

625
00:34:15.719 --> 00:34:19.440
<v Speaker 1>the Capitol. Trump sued the company and its former chief executive.

626
00:34:19.920 --> 00:34:20.519
<v Speaker 4>Last month.

627
00:34:20.599 --> 00:34:23.280
<v Speaker 1>Meta platform says it had agreed to pay about twenty

628
00:34:23.320 --> 00:34:25.360
<v Speaker 1>five million to settle a lawsuit by Trump, who is

629
00:34:25.400 --> 00:34:28.920
<v Speaker 1>also looking to settle with Google for banning him from YouTube.

630
00:34:29.559 --> 00:34:33.519
<v Speaker 1>Evacuation warnings have been issued for communities in Mount Baldy,

631
00:34:33.719 --> 00:34:36.000
<v Speaker 1>right Wood and Highland because of the risk of mud

632
00:34:36.000 --> 00:34:38.440
<v Speaker 1>and debris flows from the store moving into the area.

633
00:34:38.559 --> 00:34:41.599
<v Speaker 1>Authorities are on high alert for potential flash flooding and

634
00:34:41.760 --> 00:34:46.079
<v Speaker 1>mud slides, with emergency crews ready to issue evacuation orders

635
00:34:46.119 --> 00:34:49.519
<v Speaker 1>if they're needed. Amazon is hiring in the Ie. The

636
00:34:49.559 --> 00:34:52.159
<v Speaker 1>company says it's hiring more than two thousand full and

637
00:34:52.280 --> 00:34:56.239
<v Speaker 1>part time workers to help staff its two inbound cross

638
00:34:56.360 --> 00:35:01.280
<v Speaker 1>dock facilities in Harupa Valley and Fontana. Amazon says the

639
00:35:01.320 --> 00:35:04.920
<v Speaker 1>facilities are key to keeping the supply chain moving quickly.

640
00:35:05.599 --> 00:35:09.320
<v Speaker 1>NASA says there's a two percent chance an asteroid up

641
00:35:09.320 --> 00:35:12.000
<v Speaker 1>to three hundred feet across could hit Earth in a

642
00:35:12.039 --> 00:35:15.199
<v Speaker 1>few years. The chances of the space rock colliding with

643
00:35:15.320 --> 00:35:19.119
<v Speaker 1>Earth have nearly doubled since NASA started tracking it a

644
00:35:19.119 --> 00:35:22.599
<v Speaker 1>few weeks ago, still just two percent. NASA says if

645
00:35:22.639 --> 00:35:26.079
<v Speaker 1>it does hit, it would likely cause local damage and

646
00:35:26.320 --> 00:35:29.920
<v Speaker 1>isn't big enough to threaten the planet. So we got

647
00:35:29.920 --> 00:35:32.599
<v Speaker 1>that going for us. We're just minutes away from Handle.

648
00:35:32.679 --> 00:35:34.960
<v Speaker 1>On the news this morning, the Justice Department is accusing

649
00:35:35.039 --> 00:35:40.880
<v Speaker 1>New York of favoring illegal immigrants over US citizens.

650
00:35:41.039 --> 00:35:43.039
<v Speaker 4>We'll tell you about that right now.

651
00:35:43.039 --> 00:35:45.760
<v Speaker 1>We got to tell you about something very special that's

652
00:35:45.760 --> 00:35:48.960
<v Speaker 1>happening in Compton. So let's say good morning to Compton

653
00:35:49.079 --> 00:35:53.920
<v Speaker 1>District Superintendent, doctor Darren Brawley. Thanks for joining us, doctor Browley,

654
00:35:55.519 --> 00:36:00.320
<v Speaker 1>Good morning, So Compton, Compton is bucking the trend of

655
00:36:00.480 --> 00:36:03.480
<v Speaker 1>declining student performance. We're seeing it all over the places.

656
00:36:03.519 --> 00:36:06.039
<v Speaker 1>Students try to get back up to speed after the pandemic.

657
00:36:06.400 --> 00:36:08.519
<v Speaker 1>Math and reading test scores are down all over in

658
00:36:08.760 --> 00:36:11.800
<v Speaker 1>LA but not in Compton, which is now boasting a

659
00:36:11.920 --> 00:36:15.679
<v Speaker 1>ninety three percent graduation rate. So, doctor Browley, tell us,

660
00:36:16.000 --> 00:36:20.239
<v Speaker 1>what are you doing different that is so successful in

661
00:36:20.280 --> 00:36:22.159
<v Speaker 1>setting these kids up for success.

662
00:36:23.039 --> 00:36:27.239
<v Speaker 8>Well, we really have a different system and place in Compton.

663
00:36:27.679 --> 00:36:32.400
<v Speaker 8>We focus on Malcolm Baldrich Performance Excellent standards. That's incorporated

664
00:36:32.440 --> 00:36:36.119
<v Speaker 8>into everything that we do and doing. So we benchmark

665
00:36:36.159 --> 00:36:40.119
<v Speaker 8>our performance against our surrounding school districts that I like

666
00:36:40.199 --> 00:36:44.000
<v Speaker 8>to call our surrounding competitors. And we've been doing that

667
00:36:44.039 --> 00:36:47.000
<v Speaker 8>for quite some time. And when we first started that process,

668
00:36:47.039 --> 00:36:51.679
<v Speaker 8>we were significantly behind all of the surrounding school districts.

669
00:36:51.960 --> 00:36:57.679
<v Speaker 8>When I got there thirteen years ago. Yeah, our graduation

670
00:36:57.840 --> 00:37:00.920
<v Speaker 8>rates were fifty eight percent. They're now three percent. They're

671
00:37:01.000 --> 00:37:05.760
<v Speaker 8>number one in Los Angeles County for similar school districts

672
00:37:06.079 --> 00:37:09.000
<v Speaker 8>and number one in the state for similar school districts

673
00:37:09.039 --> 00:37:13.599
<v Speaker 8>with more than ninety percent duplicated people count and higher

674
00:37:13.599 --> 00:37:19.840
<v Speaker 8>than ten thousand students. And so that benchmarking performance, we

675
00:37:20.400 --> 00:37:23.719
<v Speaker 8>incorporate that into everything that we do against all the

676
00:37:23.760 --> 00:37:25.400
<v Speaker 8>state dashboard indicators.

677
00:37:25.599 --> 00:37:27.679
<v Speaker 1>Okay, so talk to us a little bit more about

678
00:37:28.239 --> 00:37:30.679
<v Speaker 1>specifically what are you doing. So you you not only

679
00:37:30.719 --> 00:37:33.239
<v Speaker 1>say here's what we're doing, here's what they're doing, let's

680
00:37:33.239 --> 00:37:35.000
<v Speaker 1>beat them. But you've got to put some you've got

681
00:37:35.039 --> 00:37:39.360
<v Speaker 1>to have some systems in place to help the kids.

682
00:37:39.239 --> 00:37:44.639
<v Speaker 8>Right there, right. So based upon that, then we create

683
00:37:44.760 --> 00:37:50.519
<v Speaker 8>smart goals, specific measurable, attainable results over time, and we

684
00:37:50.599 --> 00:37:54.639
<v Speaker 8>also have superintendent data chats probably about every six weeks

685
00:37:54.639 --> 00:37:57.599
<v Speaker 8>where we're looking at all those metrics, whether it's a

686
00:37:57.639 --> 00:38:02.119
<v Speaker 8>ELA performance. As you saw, our performance over the last

687
00:38:02.199 --> 00:38:06.000
<v Speaker 8>two years has been remarkable with m Compton. It's led

688
00:38:06.039 --> 00:38:09.039
<v Speaker 8>to state two years in a row as well as

689
00:38:09.039 --> 00:38:12.440
<v Speaker 8>our math performance. The same thing. We've led to stay

690
00:38:12.559 --> 00:38:16.360
<v Speaker 8>two years in a row for some early situated school districts.

691
00:38:16.840 --> 00:38:21.679
<v Speaker 8>So based upon that, our site principles are responsible for

692
00:38:21.800 --> 00:38:25.800
<v Speaker 8>creating action plans around those smart goals and then creating

693
00:38:26.239 --> 00:38:29.599
<v Speaker 8>interventions for the students that are served. And in doing so,

694
00:38:30.079 --> 00:38:33.840
<v Speaker 8>we have brought in quite a bit of tutors. More

695
00:38:33.840 --> 00:38:36.679
<v Speaker 8>than two hundred and fifty tutors have been brought into

696
00:38:36.880 --> 00:38:40.840
<v Speaker 8>the system during the instructional day because we know that

697
00:38:40.840 --> 00:38:43.840
<v Speaker 8>that's where we can have the most impact. And then

698
00:38:43.880 --> 00:38:47.280
<v Speaker 8>those tutors are working with the students that are identified

699
00:38:48.199 --> 00:38:49.440
<v Speaker 8>for interventions.

700
00:38:49.719 --> 00:38:52.239
<v Speaker 1>Okay, and when you say they're identified for interventions, So

701
00:38:52.280 --> 00:38:54.760
<v Speaker 1>you're looking for someone who might be struggling a little

702
00:38:54.760 --> 00:38:56.719
<v Speaker 1>bit or they just need more personal attention.

703
00:38:58.400 --> 00:39:01.559
<v Speaker 8>Yeah, so we have lots of systems in place, so

704
00:39:02.119 --> 00:39:04.760
<v Speaker 8>think of math. In math, we have problems of the

705
00:39:04.840 --> 00:39:09.920
<v Speaker 8>day Monday through Thursday that are focused on state standards,

706
00:39:09.960 --> 00:39:13.800
<v Speaker 8>and so the teachers will teach that standard throughout that

707
00:39:13.880 --> 00:39:19.199
<v Speaker 8>week Monday through Thursday with five questions. They'll walk through

708
00:39:19.320 --> 00:39:23.639
<v Speaker 8>maybe two to three in terms of showing students, and

709
00:39:23.639 --> 00:39:27.639
<v Speaker 8>then the students will complete the remaining problems on their own,

710
00:39:27.679 --> 00:39:30.920
<v Speaker 8>and then Friday, they'll take a five question a little

711
00:39:32.039 --> 00:39:35.920
<v Speaker 8>assessment to determine which students have met it with seventy

712
00:39:35.960 --> 00:39:40.000
<v Speaker 8>to eighty percent mastery, and then based upon that intervention

713
00:39:40.079 --> 00:39:43.000
<v Speaker 8>groups will be formed. We do that process both in

714
00:39:43.079 --> 00:39:47.159
<v Speaker 8>ELA and in math. So I gave you the example

715
00:39:47.199 --> 00:39:49.159
<v Speaker 8>of math, but we also do the same thing with

716
00:39:49.320 --> 00:39:54.360
<v Speaker 8>what we call target it targeted learning checks in ELA

717
00:39:54.679 --> 00:39:55.960
<v Speaker 8>with his language arts.

718
00:39:56.039 --> 00:39:58.039
<v Speaker 1>Okay, so if I'm understanding correctly, it sounds like you're

719
00:39:58.119 --> 00:40:01.760
<v Speaker 1>checking up on everybody pretty constantly. There's like you're always

720
00:40:01.800 --> 00:40:04.559
<v Speaker 1>watching and then there's some that are doing good and

721
00:40:04.639 --> 00:40:06.960
<v Speaker 1>you just keep encouraging them and the ones that might

722
00:40:07.000 --> 00:40:09.039
<v Speaker 1>be falling behind a little bit. Then they get the

723
00:40:09.400 --> 00:40:12.239
<v Speaker 1>tutors and they get the extra attention to get them.

724
00:40:12.079 --> 00:40:12.800
<v Speaker 4>Back up to speed.

725
00:40:14.039 --> 00:40:15.199
<v Speaker 8>That is correct, okay?

726
00:40:15.400 --> 00:40:17.239
<v Speaker 1>And how do you get the students to buy in

727
00:40:17.280 --> 00:40:19.320
<v Speaker 1>on it? I mean, like, are the students excited about

728
00:40:19.320 --> 00:40:22.400
<v Speaker 1>it that there's competition or how are they reacting?

729
00:40:24.719 --> 00:40:30.119
<v Speaker 8>Well, students, students love the additional attention that they get because,

730
00:40:30.280 --> 00:40:34.000
<v Speaker 8>you know, something that was you know, pretty abstract to

731
00:40:34.039 --> 00:40:38.159
<v Speaker 8>them all of a sudden becomes attainable with the additional support.

732
00:40:38.760 --> 00:40:41.960
<v Speaker 8>So students have brought I have bought into the concept.

733
00:40:42.760 --> 00:40:48.199
<v Speaker 8>And we've also created a competition this year where you know,

734
00:40:48.360 --> 00:40:52.400
<v Speaker 8>specific school wants to be another school. So now we've

735
00:40:52.440 --> 00:40:57.440
<v Speaker 8>created this competition where one school wants to be a

736
00:40:57.840 --> 00:41:00.599
<v Speaker 8>neighboring school that is doing better than them, and so

737
00:41:00.679 --> 00:41:04.239
<v Speaker 8>we've rallied teachers as well as students behind that.

738
00:41:04.880 --> 00:41:05.280
<v Speaker 4>Very cool.

739
00:41:05.320 --> 00:41:09.800
<v Speaker 1>And then are you are there plans to recreate this

740
00:41:10.159 --> 00:41:12.519
<v Speaker 1>system in other schools or is anybody else doing it?

741
00:41:12.599 --> 00:41:14.159
<v Speaker 4>Or are you guys the only ones that you know of?

742
00:41:15.559 --> 00:41:18.599
<v Speaker 8>Well, there's a few superintendents that have reached out and

743
00:41:19.840 --> 00:41:23.199
<v Speaker 8>that teams over to see what we're doing. It remains

744
00:41:23.239 --> 00:41:25.360
<v Speaker 8>to be seeing whether or not they will follow through it.

745
00:41:26.039 --> 00:41:27.719
<v Speaker 4>Okay, I think this is just so great.

746
00:41:27.760 --> 00:41:30.880
<v Speaker 1>It's so great to see students succeeding, especially because all

747
00:41:30.920 --> 00:41:34.280
<v Speaker 1>we've been hearing again since the pandemic is the kids

748
00:41:34.280 --> 00:41:36.599
<v Speaker 1>are behind and they're not catching back up. So to

749
00:41:36.639 --> 00:41:39.840
<v Speaker 1>hear that that Compton has kind of figured out a

750
00:41:39.880 --> 00:41:42.920
<v Speaker 1>way to get those students back on a successful trap

751
00:41:43.119 --> 00:41:45.000
<v Speaker 1>is just amazing. It sounds like you've been doing it

752
00:41:45.039 --> 00:41:49.119
<v Speaker 1>since before the pandemic started, but continuing it, so that's fair.

753
00:41:49.360 --> 00:41:49.840
<v Speaker 4>Yeah.

754
00:41:49.960 --> 00:41:50.159
<v Speaker 11>Yeah.

755
00:41:50.159 --> 00:41:52.599
<v Speaker 8>And there's one one of different thing that we focus on,

756
00:41:52.760 --> 00:41:56.440
<v Speaker 8>and that is the academic language of the assessment.

757
00:41:56.639 --> 00:41:58.400
<v Speaker 4>So what does that mean?

758
00:42:00.039 --> 00:42:04.480
<v Speaker 8>So the curriculum that we adopt uses language that is

759
00:42:04.519 --> 00:42:07.639
<v Speaker 8>not necessarily the same as the academic language that students

760
00:42:07.639 --> 00:42:12.119
<v Speaker 8>will actually take when they take the test. And so

761
00:42:12.159 --> 00:42:15.559
<v Speaker 8>we have a high EL population thirty two percent within

762
00:42:15.599 --> 00:42:20.119
<v Speaker 8>our organization, and so we focus on teaching students that

763
00:42:20.360 --> 00:42:23.320
<v Speaker 8>explicit language so that when they see it, they know

764
00:42:23.360 --> 00:42:26.239
<v Speaker 8>what the words mean. Gotcha, So you can you can

765
00:42:26.400 --> 00:42:28.360
<v Speaker 8>know how to do it, But if you see words

766
00:42:28.400 --> 00:42:31.199
<v Speaker 8>that you've never seen before, then you might freeze up

767
00:42:31.239 --> 00:42:33.440
<v Speaker 8>and think that you do not know how to do it.

768
00:42:33.920 --> 00:42:37.920
<v Speaker 8>And so we take a lot of time in ELA

769
00:42:38.039 --> 00:42:43.559
<v Speaker 8>and MAP teaching the explicit vocabulary that they're likely to account.

770
00:42:44.639 --> 00:42:45.000
<v Speaker 4>Got it.

771
00:42:45.159 --> 00:42:50.599
<v Speaker 1>Doctor Darren Browley at Compton Unified, congratulations on the great

772
00:42:50.599 --> 00:42:53.679
<v Speaker 1>work that you're doing with kids, and we expect great

773
00:42:53.719 --> 00:42:57.039
<v Speaker 1>things from those kids one day. All right, thank you,

774
00:42:57.159 --> 00:43:00.559
<v Speaker 1>all right, take care so cool. I love to see that.

775
00:43:00.599 --> 00:43:03.519
<v Speaker 1>It reminds me of Stand and Deliver. Remember that movie

776
00:43:03.519 --> 00:43:06.360
<v Speaker 1>with Edward James. Almost let's get back to some of

777
00:43:06.360 --> 00:43:08.519
<v Speaker 1>the stories coming out of the KFI twenty four our newsroom.

778
00:43:08.599 --> 00:43:11.519
<v Speaker 1>Light rain is about to get more intense. The heaviest

779
00:43:11.599 --> 00:43:15.000
<v Speaker 1>rain with this storm system is expected to soak southern

780
00:43:15.039 --> 00:43:19.880
<v Speaker 1>California this afternoon into tonight. Evacuation orders have been issued

781
00:43:19.880 --> 00:43:22.559
<v Speaker 1>for some burn areas, and La County Sheriff Luna says

782
00:43:22.800 --> 00:43:25.199
<v Speaker 1>evacuation orders could follow.

783
00:43:25.440 --> 00:43:28.800
<v Speaker 5>When you're given an evacuation order, heat the order and

784
00:43:28.880 --> 00:43:31.480
<v Speaker 5>leave as soon as you can. Nothing that you have

785
00:43:31.880 --> 00:43:34.119
<v Speaker 5>back home is worth your life.

786
00:43:33.920 --> 00:43:34.239
<v Speaker 4>He says.

787
00:43:34.239 --> 00:43:37.559
<v Speaker 1>If people decide to stay and something happens, rescuers may

788
00:43:37.599 --> 00:43:39.400
<v Speaker 1>not be able to get to them if the roads

789
00:43:39.480 --> 00:43:41.679
<v Speaker 1>and the weather get too bad. About one to three

790
00:43:41.719 --> 00:43:44.079
<v Speaker 1>inches of rain are expected in most coastal and valley

791
00:43:44.119 --> 00:43:47.119
<v Speaker 1>areas three to six inches in the foothills and mountains.

792
00:43:47.599 --> 00:43:54.079
<v Speaker 1>Flood and flash flood watches have been issued. A federal

793
00:43:54.159 --> 00:43:56.039
<v Speaker 1>judge is cleared the way for President Trump's plan to

794
00:43:56.079 --> 00:43:59.719
<v Speaker 1>downsize the federal workforce with a buyout program. The judge

795
00:43:59.760 --> 00:44:02.960
<v Speaker 1>and Austin ruled yesterday that a group of labor unions

796
00:44:02.960 --> 00:44:06.280
<v Speaker 1>did not have legal standing to challenge the program. The

797
00:44:06.280 --> 00:44:10.199
<v Speaker 1>Trump administration is using financial incentives to encourage government employees

798
00:44:10.199 --> 00:44:12.760
<v Speaker 1>to quit. The administration says so far, about seventy five

799
00:44:12.760 --> 00:44:16.039
<v Speaker 1>thousand federal workers have accepted the offer to resign now

800
00:44:16.159 --> 00:44:20.880
<v Speaker 1>and get paid through September. More people are turning to

801
00:44:20.920 --> 00:44:23.960
<v Speaker 1>higher education to improve their futures, at.

802
00:44:23.920 --> 00:44:27.360
<v Speaker 2>Least in California. Nationwide, though in forty six states. Inside

803
00:44:27.440 --> 00:44:30.400
<v Speaker 2>Higher Ed notes that college admission had an average decline

804
00:44:30.440 --> 00:44:33.639
<v Speaker 2>by seven percent last year. But at UC Davis they

805
00:44:33.719 --> 00:44:36.440
<v Speaker 2>just set a new record for undergraduate applications for fall

806
00:44:36.440 --> 00:44:39.960
<v Speaker 2>twenty twenty five, with just over one hundred twenty thousand submissions.

807
00:44:40.239 --> 00:44:42.599
<v Speaker 2>That's a little more than four percent of an increase

808
00:44:42.599 --> 00:44:44.800
<v Speaker 2>from last year. There was also a record number of

809
00:44:44.800 --> 00:44:47.400
<v Speaker 2>California residents for fall twenty twenty five, and there was

810
00:44:47.480 --> 00:44:51.559
<v Speaker 2>growth among historically underrepresented groups. Of all applicants, nearly one

811
00:44:51.599 --> 00:44:54.719
<v Speaker 2>hundred three thousand are incoming freshmen or first year students.

<v Speaker 2>Andrew Caravella KFI News.

813
00:44:56.760 --> 00:44:59.840
<v Speaker 1>Just over seventeen thousand students applied as transfers, which is

814
00:44:59.840 --> 00:45:03.159
<v Speaker 1>a four percent increase from the previous year. This is
