April Fool's Day got and 14 00:01:11.719 --> 00:01:17.599 he put good pranks planned maybe WELLS day. 15 00:01:17.599 --> 00:01:18.799 Maybe I didn't plan them yet. 16 00:01:20.239 --> 00:01:22.319 I used to like spend a lot of time like 17 00:01:22.359 --> 00:01:23.359 going what can I do? 18 00:01:23.959 --> 00:01:26.480 I remember this when I was a kid, like going 19 00:01:26.519 --> 00:01:27.959 what can I do? What can I do? And I 20 00:01:28.000 --> 00:01:31.040 didn't ever really come up with very good ones. We 21 00:01:31.079 --> 00:01:33.079 did do one really good one one year on the 22 00:01:33.120 --> 00:01:37.359 air when I was in Eugene, Oregon. Uh well, there 23 00:01:37.400 --> 00:01:40.840 was two. One. We said that they were canceling daylight 24 00:01:40.920 --> 00:01:44.319 saving time and that caught on. I think the news 25 00:01:44.319 --> 00:01:47.239 stations were like, what where'd you do that. And the 26 00:01:47.280 --> 00:01:49.920 other one was that a beer truck had crashed on 27 00:01:49.920 --> 00:01:52.799 the freeway and they didn't want to clean it up, 28 00:01:52.840 --> 00:01:54.599 so they just invited people to come down and pick 29 00:01:54.640 --> 00:01:58.840 it up. We kind of got in trouble for that one. Yeah, Okay. Also, 30 00:01:59.159 --> 00:02:01.920 I told you yesterday that I got my new ring camera. 31 00:02:02.040 --> 00:02:03.680 My brother got it for me for Christmas, and I 32 00:02:03.719 --> 00:02:06.079 finally installed it three months later because I'm well a 33 00:02:06.079 --> 00:02:09.479 bit of a procrastinator. The thing's driving me crazy. Look 34 00:02:09.479 --> 00:02:11.800 at all these alerts. I'm holding my phone up to this. 35 00:02:12.159 --> 00:02:13.759 Can you can turn them down? Can't you? 36 00:02:13.919 --> 00:02:16.840 I got to figure out how to turn off the alerts. Okay, 37 00:02:16.960 --> 00:02:20.400 time for creepy crawleys to hatch. That's an alert. Here's 38 00:02:20.439 --> 00:02:22.759 another one. Be cautious. There's a man walking a black 39 00:02:22.759 --> 00:02:29.080 dog in the neighborhood looking for a vet cutaneous horn recommendation. 40 00:02:29.199 --> 00:02:32.719 My kitten is a polydactyl and needs cutaneous horn removing. 41 00:02:33.240 --> 00:02:36.039 I don't know what this is. Does someone have a 42 00:02:36.039 --> 00:02:39.280 good recommendation for a place for car detailing. There's two 43 00:02:39.360 --> 00:02:43.840 men trespassing with blowtorches trying to steal catalytic or steal 44 00:02:43.879 --> 00:02:45.080 electric motorcycles. 45 00:02:45.560 --> 00:02:46.840 Oh, that might be worthwhile. 46 00:02:46.919 --> 00:02:49.960 But yeah, is there a power outage in Frogtown? I mean, 47 00:02:50.120 --> 00:02:56.319 just like non stop high neighbors. Can anyone foster five kittens? Oh? 48 00:02:56.360 --> 00:02:59.400 I know the answer. But is there street sweeping today 49 00:02:59.400 --> 00:03:01.240 because of the Caesar Chavez holiday? 50 00:03:01.960 --> 00:03:05.000 Stop people? This is why I turned off next door. 51 00:03:05.400 --> 00:03:07.960 Yes, no, close out. 52 00:03:08.240 --> 00:03:11.159 I'm sure there's a way to stop the alerts. Okay, 53 00:03:11.159 --> 00:03:14.039 here's what's ahead on wake up call. Everything costs just 54 00:03:14.199 --> 00:03:17.400 a little bit more in La County today, a quarter 55 00:03:17.479 --> 00:03:23.199 percent tax to pay for homelessness programs kicks in County. 56 00:03:23.240 --> 00:03:26.960 Voters approved the sales tax increase in November. It will 57 00:03:27.000 --> 00:03:30.360 remain in place unless it's repealed by voters. A fifteen 58 00:03:30.400 --> 00:03:32.719 year old girls recovering after being attacked by a sea 59 00:03:32.759 --> 00:03:35.080 lion off the coast of Long Beach. She was attacked 60 00:03:35.080 --> 00:03:38.039 on Sunday while taking a swim test for the Cadet 61 00:03:38.080 --> 00:03:41.680 lifeguard program. She was rescued and will be okay. Sea 62 00:03:41.759 --> 00:03:47.400 lions have been acting aggressively lately because of demoic acid 63 00:03:47.439 --> 00:03:51.000 poisoning from that toxic algae bloom. With Kid Rock by 64 00:03:51.000 --> 00:03:53.919 his side, President Trump assigned in executive order to protect 65 00:03:53.960 --> 00:03:58.240 Americans from exploitive ticket scalping in the entertainment industry. The 66 00:03:58.360 --> 00:04:01.319 order is designed to stop price gouging by middleman. This 67 00:04:01.400 --> 00:04:03.960 is a I'm so excited about this. We were just 68 00:04:04.039 --> 00:04:07.000 talking about it last week like that. You know, like 69 00:04:07.080 --> 00:04:09.360 when you make it, you buy a ticket to Disneyland, 70 00:04:09.520 --> 00:04:12.800 you go, it's like buying a train ticket or something, 71 00:04:12.960 --> 00:04:18.079 or a plane ticket. But with concerts, the scalpers snap 72 00:04:18.160 --> 00:04:21.079 them all up and then triple and quadruple the price 73 00:04:21.120 --> 00:04:22.720 for him, and you can't you can't afford to go. 74 00:04:22.839 --> 00:04:24.600 And I don't understand why they can't make it like 75 00:04:24.639 --> 00:04:27.279 an airline ticket, like someone else can't just use your 76 00:04:27.360 --> 00:04:28.120 air latic. 77 00:04:27.959 --> 00:04:29.800 When you sign up for it, you buy the ticket. 78 00:04:30.560 --> 00:04:30.879 Oh wow. 79 00:04:31.720 --> 00:04:31.839 Uh. 80 00:04:32.000 --> 00:04:33.959 The President says he's not joking when he floats the 81 00:04:33.959 --> 00:04:36.120 idea of serving a third term in office. We're going 82 00:04:36.199 --> 00:04:38.759 to check in with kfi's White House correspondent John Decker, 83 00:04:38.800 --> 00:04:41.040 who just happens to be a constitutional lawyer, so that'll 84 00:04:41.040 --> 00:04:42.839 come in handy. We're gonna talk to him in just 85 00:04:42.879 --> 00:04:46.120 a minute. Astronauts Sunny and Butch back from the International 86 00:04:46.120 --> 00:04:49.639 Space Station. They've held their first press conference, and ABC's 87 00:04:49.680 --> 00:04:51.480 Jim Ryan's going to tell us how they're adjusting to 88 00:04:51.519 --> 00:04:55.240 life with gravity. President Trump's Liberation Day is just one 89 00:04:55.319 --> 00:04:57.519 day away. The host of How to Money on KFI, 90 00:04:57.600 --> 00:05:00.199 Joel Glar's Guard, is going to weigh in on how 91 00:05:00.199 --> 00:05:03.519 that will affect your money and it's Raiders of the 92 00:05:03.560 --> 00:05:07.319 Lost Ark come to Life. Kfi's Rory O'Neil is going 93 00:05:07.360 --> 00:05:09.279 to join us to tell us about the search for 94 00:05:09.399 --> 00:05:10.920 the arc of the Covenant. 95 00:05:12.319 --> 00:05:12.560 I know. 96 00:05:13.439 --> 00:05:17.279 La County's new higher sales tax is in effect starting today. 97 00:05:17.319 --> 00:05:19.879 Covers in the county approved the measure last November, making 98 00:05:19.879 --> 00:05:23.120 a permanent half cent sales tax to support homeless services 99 00:05:23.120 --> 00:05:26.240 and affordable housing. It replaces a quarter cent tax that 100 00:05:26.319 --> 00:05:28.879 was supposed to expire in twenty twenty seven. The new 101 00:05:28.920 --> 00:05:32.079 tax comes with the promise of more oversight and accountability. 102 00:05:32.319 --> 00:05:35.600 It provides sixty percent of its anticipated hundreds of millions 103 00:05:35.600 --> 00:05:38.639 of dollars in revenue to deal with homelessness. Fifteen percent 104 00:05:38.639 --> 00:05:40.759 of that is to be directed to cities depending on 105 00:05:40.800 --> 00:05:44.920 their homeless population, thirty five percent is for affordable housing programs. 106 00:05:45.240 --> 00:05:47.160 Michael Monks KFI News. 107 00:05:47.360 --> 00:05:49.759 So that brings the sales tax in La County up 108 00:05:49.800 --> 00:05:53.720 to nine point seventy five percent in Palmdale and Lancaster, 109 00:05:53.959 --> 00:05:57.519 it's ten point twenty five percent and eleven point twenty 110 00:05:57.600 --> 00:06:03.000 five percent, respectively create its own homeless services department. Kfi's 111 00:06:03.000 --> 00:06:05.360 Mark Mayfield says supervisors are said to vote today on 112 00:06:05.399 --> 00:06:09.720 whether to consolidate homeless services into one county run department. 113 00:06:09.879 --> 00:06:12.879 The vote comes as the Los Angeles Homeless Services Authority 114 00:06:13.079 --> 00:06:17.040 continues to face criticism. Several audits have revealed funding is 115 00:06:17.079 --> 00:06:19.399 being wasted and has shown gaps in the tracking of 116 00:06:19.439 --> 00:06:22.040 the services that are provided by the organization. 117 00:06:23.240 --> 00:06:26.879 If supervisors approve the new department, it would start operating 118 00:06:27.319 --> 00:06:31.759 on July. First, let's check in now with KFI White 119 00:06:31.800 --> 00:06:36.360 House correspondent and constitutional lawyer John Decker. John, we thought 120 00:06:36.360 --> 00:06:40.560 you're the perfect person to talk to today because President 121 00:06:40.600 --> 00:06:43.439 Trump has talked about the idea of serving a third term. 122 00:06:43.480 --> 00:06:45.199 First he joked about it, then he said it was 123 00:06:45.279 --> 00:06:47.600 no joke, and then he said in the oval yesterday 124 00:06:47.879 --> 00:06:50.560 there could be a way to do it. So let's 125 00:06:50.600 --> 00:06:52.360 break this down. Do you think you serious? 126 00:06:54.680 --> 00:06:58.639 Well, other presidents have mulled over this idea. Even President 127 00:06:58.680 --> 00:07:02.199 Eisenhower in nineteen six six mold over this idea. But 128 00:07:02.279 --> 00:07:05.680 the problem for each of those presidents who've thought about 129 00:07:05.720 --> 00:07:08.959 this is the twenty second Amendment to the Constitution. Now, 130 00:07:08.959 --> 00:07:11.519 there are ways around the twenty second Amendment. You can 131 00:07:11.600 --> 00:07:15.079 repeal the twenty second Amendment, which bar is a president 132 00:07:15.120 --> 00:07:18.319 from serving two terms in the White House, but that's 133 00:07:18.439 --> 00:07:21.800 really difficult, especially with the narrow majority that exists right 134 00:07:21.839 --> 00:07:24.639 now in Congress. You need two thirds of the vote 135 00:07:24.639 --> 00:07:27.759 in both the House and the Senate. That's going to 136 00:07:27.759 --> 00:07:29.879 be difficult. And then if you are even able to 137 00:07:29.920 --> 00:07:32.160 do that, you'd need three quarters of the states to 138 00:07:32.319 --> 00:07:36.720 ratify that amendment to the Constitution, and that takes time. 139 00:07:37.360 --> 00:07:39.759 But the president's talking about it now, he's got time 140 00:07:39.800 --> 00:07:43.040 before twenty twenty eight rolls around. But I just don't 141 00:07:43.040 --> 00:07:46.079 think the numbers are there. And we'll see where the 142 00:07:46.079 --> 00:07:49.279 president's popularity is around that time to see if you know, 143 00:07:49.360 --> 00:07:52.600 the American public would like the president to even serve 144 00:07:52.680 --> 00:07:54.120 for a third term in the White House. 145 00:07:54.560 --> 00:07:56.959 Well, and you mentioned that even if you could get 146 00:07:57.000 --> 00:07:59.040 the states to go along with it, with the way 147 00:07:59.040 --> 00:08:01.879 that the House and the senat are today today, there's 148 00:08:01.959 --> 00:08:05.160 no way you'd get two thirds approval. 149 00:08:05.279 --> 00:08:08.920 No, you'd need Democratic votes, and there's a very narrow 150 00:08:09.000 --> 00:08:11.319 majority in the House, just a one seat majority that 151 00:08:11.399 --> 00:08:14.720 Republicans have there. It's fifty three forty seven in the Senate. 152 00:08:15.480 --> 00:08:17.399 You're not going to get two thirds of the Senate 153 00:08:17.439 --> 00:08:19.920 for sure, so that's going to be difficult. Now, the 154 00:08:19.959 --> 00:08:25.759 President has floated this possibility running as vice president to 155 00:08:26.040 --> 00:08:28.920 jd Vance, for instance, in twenty twenty eight, and then 156 00:08:28.959 --> 00:08:31.720 have jd Vance essentially hand the keys to the White 157 00:08:31.759 --> 00:08:36.720 House over to Donald Trump upon winning the presidency. That 158 00:08:36.799 --> 00:08:39.200 I think is pie in the sky. But people always 159 00:08:39.240 --> 00:08:42.600 talk about jd Vance doing that scenario. What about the 160 00:08:42.679 --> 00:08:45.679 scenario brought up by my wife, and that's Donald Trump 161 00:08:45.759 --> 00:08:48.639 Junior at the top of the ticket. That's a possibility, 162 00:08:48.679 --> 00:08:51.120 and then he turns the keys over to the White 163 00:08:51.159 --> 00:08:54.799 House to his father. So you know, look, these are 164 00:08:54.840 --> 00:08:57.720 possibilities that are fun to talk about. Certainly, he got 165 00:08:58.519 --> 00:09:02.519 the press not talk about Signalgate for a day or so, 166 00:09:02.759 --> 00:09:05.080 and I think that was maybe one of the reasons 167 00:09:05.080 --> 00:09:07.720 why the President brought this idea up in the first place. 168 00:09:07.919 --> 00:09:11.480 Okay, so I hadn't heard the one about Donald Junior. 169 00:09:11.559 --> 00:09:14.080 I did hear the one about jd Vance, But so 170 00:09:14.840 --> 00:09:20.679 would they could they abdicate not abdicate because it's not thrown. 171 00:09:20.759 --> 00:09:23.840 But could they step down and appoint Trump president or 172 00:09:23.879 --> 00:09:27.039 would it be they would be president and Trump would 173 00:09:27.039 --> 00:09:29.200 be basically be the puppet master. 174 00:09:29.799 --> 00:09:32.320 Yeah, the way it would happen under the scenario that 175 00:09:32.399 --> 00:09:36.120 I just mentioned is simply if you are president resigning 176 00:09:36.159 --> 00:09:39.519 your office and then the vice president assumes the presidency. 177 00:09:39.559 --> 00:09:42.919 That's how that would work. But you know, getting someone 178 00:09:42.960 --> 00:09:45.799 to go along with that, like JD. Vans, who's certainly ambitious, 179 00:09:45.840 --> 00:09:48.200 wants to be president himself. I don't think he wants 180 00:09:48.279 --> 00:09:52.360 to be vice president, you know, for or forever, you know, 181 00:09:52.399 --> 00:09:55.159 I don't think that maybe he'd go along with that idea. 182 00:09:55.399 --> 00:09:58.360 That's the reason why maybe Donald Trump Junior would be 183 00:09:58.440 --> 00:10:01.440 the perfect person if Donald Trump wants to pursue that 184 00:10:01.519 --> 00:10:03.679 to run at the top of the ticket and then 185 00:10:03.960 --> 00:10:05.919 hand the keys to the White House over to his. 186 00:10:05.840 --> 00:10:09.039 Father, or he could get really power hungry and then 187 00:10:09.080 --> 00:10:11.559 once he gets in office, you could say forget it, 188 00:10:11.600 --> 00:10:12.320 the deal's off. 189 00:10:13.639 --> 00:10:15.879 That's right, Yeah, that's right. 190 00:10:16.159 --> 00:10:16.840 How do you know JD. 191 00:10:16.960 --> 00:10:19.159 Vance isn't going to pull a fast one on Donald 192 00:10:19.200 --> 00:10:22.759 Trump if that happens. But you know, look, this is 193 00:10:22.799 --> 00:10:25.720 fun to talk about. This is a long time from 194 00:10:25.759 --> 00:10:28.879 now twenty twenty eight. And you know, they are presidents 195 00:10:28.879 --> 00:10:32.480 that certainly have been very intelligent, have or have had 196 00:10:32.720 --> 00:10:36.440 very bright people working around them. And you know, Ronald 197 00:10:36.440 --> 00:10:38.679 Reagan could have worn for a third term, and I 198 00:10:38.679 --> 00:10:40.799 think he would have won in nineteen eighty eight. The 199 00:10:40.879 --> 00:10:43.799 same thing with Eisenhower. But they realized the twenty second 200 00:10:43.840 --> 00:10:46.799 Amendment is problematic. They didn't want to go down that road, 201 00:10:47.440 --> 00:10:50.440 you know, and they certainly didn't want to defy the Constitution. 202 00:10:51.080 --> 00:10:53.279 And that's the reason why they just serve those two 203 00:10:53.399 --> 00:10:54.320 terms in the White House. 204 00:10:54.840 --> 00:10:57.639 Okay, hey, we were talking about amendments, and since you're 205 00:10:57.639 --> 00:11:01.879 a constitutional lawyer, have we have we ever taken amendments off? 206 00:11:02.240 --> 00:11:04.200 I know it's possible to do, but have we done it? 207 00:11:05.200 --> 00:11:05.480 Well? 208 00:11:05.559 --> 00:11:08.559 Yeah, of course. You know, there's amendments that have repealed 209 00:11:08.639 --> 00:11:14.840 other amendments. So when you're talking about the voting age nationally, 210 00:11:15.039 --> 00:11:18.440 that's an amendment that repealed another amendment. You know, you 211 00:11:18.480 --> 00:11:24.480 talk about amendments that provided equality across our country, that's 212 00:11:24.480 --> 00:11:26.799 an amendment that repealed another amendment. 213 00:11:26.919 --> 00:11:27.759 So yes, of. 214 00:11:27.679 --> 00:11:30.679 Course we have done that, but it's done through that process. 215 00:11:31.000 --> 00:11:33.600 That process is lengthy, that's the reason why we don't 216 00:11:33.600 --> 00:11:36.720 have that many amendments to the Constitution because of the 217 00:11:36.799 --> 00:11:40.039 lengthy and process that we're talking about, and it's just 218 00:11:40.080 --> 00:11:41.399 a difficult process to do. 219 00:11:41.840 --> 00:11:46.159 Okay, KFI White House correspondent and constitutional lawyer, which we appreciate, 220 00:11:46.240 --> 00:11:48.480 especially today, John Decker, thanks so much. 221 00:11:49.600 --> 00:11:50.519 Thank you. Have a great day, am. 222 00:11:51.559 --> 00:11:53.159 Let's get back to some of the stories coming out 223 00:11:53.159 --> 00:11:56.360 of the KFI twenty four hour news room. President Trump 224 00:11:56.440 --> 00:11:58.960 is planning to move forward with a major tear of 225 00:11:59.159 --> 00:12:03.360 blitz on several countries, including allies. It's expected to drive 226 00:12:03.440 --> 00:12:06.559 up the cost of groceries, electronics, and cars in the US. 227 00:12:06.759 --> 00:12:09.919 A new poll from the Associated Press shows Americans aren't 228 00:12:09.919 --> 00:12:14.360 sold on the president's trade policies, sixty percent disapproving, with 229 00:12:14.440 --> 00:12:15.919 thirty eight percent approving. 230 00:12:16.919 --> 00:12:19.919 ABC's Mary Bruce says on Trump's handling of the economy, 231 00:12:20.279 --> 00:12:25.240 fifty eight percent disapprove, forty percent approve. Goldman Sachs has 232 00:12:25.320 --> 00:12:29.320 raised its expectation that the US will enter a recession 233 00:12:29.399 --> 00:12:32.480 in the next year to thirty five percent. Kfi's Brian 234 00:12:32.519 --> 00:12:35.720 shuk says that's not the only concern expressed by the 235 00:12:35.759 --> 00:12:36.879 financial firm's report. 236 00:12:37.000 --> 00:12:38.279 In a note two investors. 237 00:12:38.320 --> 00:12:42.759 Goldman also lowered its GDP forecast and predicted a rise 238 00:12:42.919 --> 00:12:43.879 in unemployment. 239 00:12:44.720 --> 00:12:47.720 The resident's mixed signals on tariffs sent stock markets on 240 00:12:47.759 --> 00:12:51.080 another wild ride yesterday, with the down s ANDP finishing up. 241 00:12:51.360 --> 00:12:54.440 The NASDAK closed down. Trump has promised new tariffs to 242 00:12:54.440 --> 00:12:58.120 be announced tomorrow. Five men accused of laundering money on 243 00:12:58.159 --> 00:13:02.519 behalf of Mexico's Sinela cartel have been charged in a 244 00:13:02.559 --> 00:13:06.120 pair of grand jury indictments unsealed in federal court in 245 00:13:06.159 --> 00:13:09.480 San Diego, US Attorney's offices. The indictments were first returned 246 00:13:09.480 --> 00:13:12.519 against the men in twenty twenty two. All of them 247 00:13:12.639 --> 00:13:15.960 are still on the run. Four of the five have 248 00:13:16.200 --> 00:13:18.480 also been sanctioned by the US for their alleged roles 249 00:13:18.480 --> 00:13:22.960 in supporting the cartel's drug trafficking activities. Officials in Iceland 250 00:13:23.080 --> 00:13:26.080 say a volcano is erupting in the southwestern part of 251 00:13:26.080 --> 00:13:29.360 the country. A nearby town and the Blue Lagoon SPA 252 00:13:29.440 --> 00:13:33.320 have been evacuated. The community was largely evacuated a year 253 00:13:33.360 --> 00:13:35.799 ago when the volcano came to life after lying dormant 254 00:13:35.799 --> 00:13:39.639 for eight hundred years. Today, the magma flow was accompanied 255 00:13:39.679 --> 00:13:43.600 by an intense earthquake storm similar to previous eruptions. Well, 256 00:13:43.600 --> 00:13:46.559 that sounds like a fun place to be gall Lee. 257 00:13:46.720 --> 00:13:49.440 People could soon have the option of using an AI 258 00:13:49.720 --> 00:13:53.639 doctor for health advice. ABC's Michelle frands And says Apple 259 00:13:53.720 --> 00:13:56.279 is reportedly planning to bring an AI power doc to 260 00:13:56.360 --> 00:13:59.919 its health app. There are reports that human doctors are 261 00:14:00.360 --> 00:14:04.000 used to train the artificial intelligent agent that will act 262 00:14:04.039 --> 00:14:08.120 as a physician and health coach and make recommendations. She says. 263 00:14:08.159 --> 00:14:13.000 The revamped app is expected to be released next spring.

I'd like to get my hands on 272 00:14:40.080 --> 00:14:43.159 one of those bobbleheads. The LA County Board of Supervisor 273 00:14:43.240 --> 00:14:45.360 is going to vote today on whether to create its 274 00:14:45.399 --> 00:14:48.919 own county run homeless services department. The vote comes as 275 00:14:49.039 --> 00:14:53.360 the LA Homeless Services Authority continues to face criticism for 276 00:14:53.399 --> 00:14:56.320 wasting money and not tracking where millions in funding has 277 00:14:56.320 --> 00:14:59.320 been spent. A fire burning north of Bishop in central 278 00:14:59.320 --> 00:15:02.799 California's grow to almost sixteen hundred acres. Firefighters continue to 279 00:15:02.799 --> 00:15:06.080 be challenged by strong, gusty wins, but they were able 280 00:15:06.120 --> 00:15:09.679 to stop the fire's forward progress and start drawing lines 281 00:15:09.720 --> 00:15:14.080 around At the fires, forty seven percent surrounded. Evacuation orders 282 00:15:14.120 --> 00:15:17.279 remain in place in parts of both Inyo and Mono Counties. 283 00:15:18.039 --> 00:15:24.519 There will be no USC UCLA rematch or match up 284 00:15:24.559 --> 00:15:27.919 in the Final four of the NCAA Women's Basketball Tournament. 285 00:15:28.399 --> 00:15:31.720 USC's hopes of advancing to its first women's Final four 286 00:15:31.799 --> 00:15:35.679 and almost forty years deflated with a seventy eight sixty 287 00:15:35.720 --> 00:15:38.799 four loss to Connecticut last night in Spokane, Connecticut now 288 00:15:38.840 --> 00:15:42.679 moves on to face UCLA in the women's Final four Friday. 289 00:15:42.960 --> 00:15:45.519 At six oh five, It's handle on the news with 290 00:15:45.639 --> 00:15:49.360 Neil Sevedra Corey Booker still talking. He hasn't stopped for 291 00:15:49.399 --> 00:15:52.799 like thirteen hours. Tell you what that's all about. Right now, 292 00:15:52.919 --> 00:15:56.879 Let's check in with ABC's Jim Ryan. So Jim two 293 00:15:56.879 --> 00:16:00.960 weeks ago, Crew nine with Colonel Nick Haig, Russian cosmonaut, 294 00:16:01.000 --> 00:16:04.000 and then Sunny Williams and Butch Wilmore return to Earth. 295 00:16:04.759 --> 00:16:07.320 What have they been doing for the last couple of weeks. 296 00:16:07.360 --> 00:16:10.840 Getting used to gravity, getting used to food and seeing 297 00:16:10.879 --> 00:16:15.159 their families and being on the ground essentially, you know, 298 00:16:15.360 --> 00:16:18.320 So it's been kind of a reacting process. They've been 299 00:16:18.440 --> 00:16:23.320 in quarantine essentially, mainly for their own protection because there's 300 00:16:23.320 --> 00:16:26.000 a clean environment up there aboard the International Space Station. 301 00:16:26.080 --> 00:16:28.840 They haven't been exposed to things like the common cold 302 00:16:29.320 --> 00:16:32.919 or measles or anything else that's going around on this planet. 303 00:16:32.960 --> 00:16:37.720 So they gradually reacclimate to the Earth's environment and the 304 00:16:37.759 --> 00:16:40.480 potential threats that are out there. To that, they've also 305 00:16:40.600 --> 00:16:45.279 been building up their physical endurance. Now. Sunny Williams did 306 00:16:45.399 --> 00:16:48.559 two hours worth of exercise aboard the International Space Station 307 00:16:48.799 --> 00:16:53.159 every day and has managed to maintain her conditioning. So 308 00:16:53.600 --> 00:16:56.519 she said that she went on a three mile run 309 00:16:56.639 --> 00:17:00.559 yesterday before giving the first interview that she had Wilmore 310 00:17:00.559 --> 00:17:03.320 had given since they got back from the Issamy. 311 00:17:04.240 --> 00:17:08.039 I would imagine that running after running in space, because 312 00:17:08.039 --> 00:17:10.119 I've seen some of the video of her on the 313 00:17:10.160 --> 00:17:13.880 space station. They've got her like sideways, just running away, 314 00:17:13.880 --> 00:17:16.880 but they're strapped down to hold them down, so they 315 00:17:16.880 --> 00:17:20.640 don't just float around. I would imagine running now just 316 00:17:20.799 --> 00:17:22.960 feels like really heavy. 317 00:17:23.279 --> 00:17:24.880 Oh yeah, I can imagine. 318 00:17:24.960 --> 00:17:25.480 Yeah I did. 319 00:17:25.519 --> 00:17:28.039 But she did three miles, so she's kind of back 320 00:17:28.119 --> 00:17:31.680 up to it now, she says. Sonny said that as 321 00:17:31.720 --> 00:17:34.160 they were aboard the space station, they really didn't know 322 00:17:34.200 --> 00:17:37.160 about all the love and support they were getting in 323 00:17:37.279 --> 00:17:40.400 concern from people down here on Earth about this extended 324 00:17:40.440 --> 00:17:42.359 stay they were going through on the ISS. 325 00:17:42.680 --> 00:17:46.279 I don't think we were aware to the degree, pretty 326 00:17:46.759 --> 00:17:50.559 honored and humbled by the fact of when we came home, like, wow, 327 00:17:50.599 --> 00:17:52.640 there's there are a lot of people who are interested, 328 00:17:52.960 --> 00:17:56.480 very thankful, very amazed that we could hopefully be one 329 00:17:56.519 --> 00:17:58.240 positive element to bring people together. 330 00:17:59.279 --> 00:17:59.640 Yeah. 331 00:18:00.000 --> 00:18:02.839 I love that. And I watched part of it because 332 00:18:02.839 --> 00:18:04.880 it was on and I was on the air, and 333 00:18:05.000 --> 00:18:07.880 so I wasn't able to pay attention to all of 334 00:18:07.920 --> 00:18:09.759 what's going on. But they were talking about some of 335 00:18:09.799 --> 00:18:12.119 the things that they missed while they were up in space. 336 00:18:13.400 --> 00:18:15.759 Yes, well, Sonny, the first thing she did for her 337 00:18:15.799 --> 00:18:18.319 first meal, it wasn't lobster, it wasn't a trip to 338 00:18:18.359 --> 00:18:21.559 the buffet. It was a grilled cheese sandwich. Just simple 339 00:18:21.599 --> 00:18:25.200 things like that, you know, that you take for granted 340 00:18:25.240 --> 00:18:28.400 here on Earth and when you're off in the International 341 00:18:28.400 --> 00:18:30.880 Space Station. I don't know if they're eating Pillsbury space 342 00:18:30.920 --> 00:18:34.920 food snacks or what exactly, but so they missed just 343 00:18:35.000 --> 00:18:37.319 those common little things like that. 344 00:18:37.880 --> 00:18:38.079 You know. 345 00:18:38.279 --> 00:18:40.079 The reason they were up there so long, of course, 346 00:18:40.279 --> 00:18:42.839 is that the Boeing star Line of that took Williams 347 00:18:43.000 --> 00:18:47.000 and Wilmore to the ISS had a technical issue. NASSA 348 00:18:47.079 --> 00:18:49.279 brought it back down to Earth. It was fine, there 349 00:18:49.359 --> 00:18:51.920 wasn't a problem with it, but in an abundance of caution, 350 00:18:52.599 --> 00:18:55.200 it was brought back without the crew board. So who 351 00:18:55.200 --> 00:18:58.200 gets the blame for all of this? Butch Wilmore, who 352 00:18:58.319 --> 00:19:01.839 was the crew flight test chief, puts it this way. 353 00:19:02.400 --> 00:19:07.440 Responsibility with Boeing, yes, Responsibility with NASA yes. 354 00:19:07.759 --> 00:19:10.960 And he says that he, too, amy bears some responsibility. 355 00:19:10.960 --> 00:19:13.960 He says that there are things that he should have 356 00:19:14.119 --> 00:19:17.440 asked before they left, asked about this new Boeing Starliner 357 00:19:17.759 --> 00:19:19.480 that he didn't ask, and so he takes some of 358 00:19:19.519 --> 00:19:20.359 the blame for that too. 359 00:19:21.200 --> 00:19:24.559 Imagine that taking responsibility. What a what a novel? 360 00:19:24.640 --> 00:19:25.000 Idea. 361 00:19:25.440 --> 00:19:25.720 Yeah. 362 00:19:25.839 --> 00:19:31.519 Wow. So aside from the getting to see their families 363 00:19:31.519 --> 00:19:34.920 and grilled cheese sandwiches and say that they were not 364 00:19:35.079 --> 00:19:37.599 quite aware of how much support they were getting down here. 365 00:19:37.640 --> 00:19:40.039 Did they have any other kind of revelations or anything 366 00:19:40.119 --> 00:19:41.920 that they shared surprising things? 367 00:19:42.400 --> 00:19:45.880 Well, listening to during the news conference they took, there 368 00:19:45.920 --> 00:19:48.079 was a phone bridge and so they were taking questions 369 00:19:48.079 --> 00:19:51.839 from all over the place. An Indian reporter asked Sonny Williams, 370 00:19:51.839 --> 00:19:54.680 who is of Indian descent, what it was like to 371 00:19:54.720 --> 00:19:57.960 fly over India, and she talked and she had a 372 00:19:57.960 --> 00:20:00.440 really great description of it. To the himalay Is on 373 00:20:00.440 --> 00:20:04.039 one side, you could see them, you know, jutting up 374 00:20:04.039 --> 00:20:07.240 off the planet, off the surface, and then this vast 375 00:20:07.279 --> 00:20:10.880 flat expanse. And she could pick out cities at night 376 00:20:10.960 --> 00:20:14.079 based on the lights, and pick out communities during the daytime. 377 00:20:14.559 --> 00:20:17.279 And so that was kind of an interesting thing. You 378 00:20:17.279 --> 00:20:19.519 know that they're up there as scientists, they're up there 379 00:20:19.920 --> 00:20:23.400 doing these experiments and keeping the iss and repair, but 380 00:20:23.640 --> 00:20:26.359 also in a way they're tourists. Wilmore took hundreds of 381 00:20:26.400 --> 00:20:27.799 photographs while he was up there. 382 00:20:28.119 --> 00:20:31.640 That's so cool. What an amazing experience, And think about 383 00:20:32.240 --> 00:20:34.200 when we got to talk to Colonel Haig, he was 384 00:20:34.319 --> 00:20:36.160 like talking about just every once in a while he'd 385 00:20:36.160 --> 00:20:38.839 take a break and just look out and see the 386 00:20:38.839 --> 00:20:41.880 world and just go wow, you know, just like, oh, 387 00:20:42.039 --> 00:20:45.400 inspiring is so cool? All right? How long are they 388 00:20:45.400 --> 00:20:45.920 in quarantine? 389 00:20:45.960 --> 00:20:46.480 Jim? Do we know? 390 00:20:47.119 --> 00:20:48.920 They've wrapped it up and they should be able to 391 00:20:48.920 --> 00:20:51.799 go home now, home being you know, their homes in Houston. 392 00:20:51.880 --> 00:20:54.519 They do all their training and work at Johnson Space Center. 393 00:20:54.559 --> 00:20:57.000 They both said, you know, if we could go back 394 00:20:57.039 --> 00:20:59.960 into space, we would do it again. But he is 395 00:21:00.240 --> 00:21:03.960 sixty two, she's fifty nine. I think so their time 396 00:21:04.000 --> 00:21:06.440 as actual astronauts might be an end, but I suspect 397 00:21:06.519 --> 00:21:08.079 NASA we'll have jobs for them for the rest of 398 00:21:08.119 --> 00:21:08.599 their lives. 399 00:21:08.799 --> 00:21:11.319 Well, if it's their last strip to space. They got 400 00:21:11.359 --> 00:21:12.359 their money's worth. 401 00:21:13.359 --> 00:21:16.079
