Speaker 1: This is Gary and Shannon, and you're listening to kf
Speaker 1: I AM six forty, the Gary and Shannon Show on
Speaker 1: demand on the iHeartRadio app.
Speaker 2: You know we'll get through this long.
Speaker 1: It's like it's like a boy scout's knot.
Speaker 3: He put in here using wire. Yeah, I'm using straightened
Speaker 3: out paper clips.
Speaker 1: I didn't do that.
Speaker 2: He doesn't remember.
Speaker 4: You didn't do this.
Speaker 1: You swear to God. You swear on Jesus. Yeah, no,
Speaker 1: you don't swear on Jesus.
Speaker 5: Now Jesus is upset for several reasons.
Speaker 3: Uh, Gary Shannon KFI AM six forty live everywhere on
Speaker 3: the iHeartRadio app. On It's Friday, and I think it's
Speaker 3: the twenty fourth.
Speaker 1: I was excited when I woke up today and I
Speaker 1: thought it's Friday.
Speaker 5: We have a big Friday show to do.
Speaker 1: Or it may have been the four shots of espresso,
Speaker 1: one of which I got all over myself.
Speaker 3: One of which is on the front of your sweet shirt.
Speaker 3: So only three shots?
Speaker 1: What's our flashback Friday year eighty eight eighty eight? I
Speaker 1: have something to tell you right out of the gate.
Speaker 2: Is this more about your coffee spill?
Speaker 6: No?
Speaker 1: That okay, we're not gonna let it have more oxygen
Speaker 1: in our lives?
Speaker 2: Is it good news? Is it?
Speaker 6: Well?
Speaker 5: It was something that we talked about yesterday.
Speaker 1: I remember how we talked about the movies nominated for
Speaker 1: Best Picture for the Oscars, and my parents used to
Speaker 1: have a thing where they'd watch all of them, you know,
Speaker 1: back when they were the movies that weren't just catering
Speaker 1: to whatever the popular topic was in America today. Yes,
Speaker 1: and when they were just good and they weren't esoteric,
Speaker 1: and they weren't art for the sake of being art
Speaker 1: and Hollywood just doing hand stuff with these with each other,
Speaker 1: when they were like just good blockbuster movies, right.
Speaker 2: Sure.
Speaker 1: Anyway, So I was like, you know what, I'm going
Speaker 1: to try and watch more of the movies. I had
Speaker 1: seen one on the Oscars list, being The Substance. So
Speaker 1: I started a Nora last night. Okay, I am to
Speaker 1: be honest. I am about halfway through. It's about a
Speaker 1: two hour film. I've watched about an hour of it
Speaker 1: in a little bit and change. I see where it's headed.
Speaker 1: I see the storyline. It's it's trash, it's pornography. It
Speaker 1: is not exciting dialogue, the plot's not exciting. The acting
Speaker 1: is not incredible. I don't know why it's up for
Speaker 1: Best Picture unless and then in the next half of
Speaker 1: the movie if there's a one eighty, but it's not
Speaker 1: going to erase the first hour, which is just watching
Speaker 1: a young girl strip naked and have sex with people,
Speaker 1: like it's just it.
Speaker 5: What are we doing?
Speaker 1: And I'm not the morality police, obviously, but it's awful.
Speaker 1: I mean, the fact that this is up for Best Picture.
Speaker 1: Why if it was maybe really well acted, the dialogue,
Speaker 1: the plot, anything, it was different, it was artistic something.
Speaker 2: And it's none of those things.
Speaker 1: No, maybe I'm way off base, and let me know
Speaker 1: if I am, but I have not seen the magic
Speaker 1: in that over the first hour.
Speaker 3: I don't know anything about it other than what you've
Speaker 3: just said. I mean to know the basic plot.
Speaker 1: I mean the synopsis I read yesterday was a stripper
Speaker 1: meets a rich guy at the strip club, and it's
Speaker 1: this princess tale, but not like Princess Diaries type stuff.
Speaker 1: It's grittier. It's darker, dirtier, right, But I haven't found
Speaker 1: a redeeming situation. I see a love story developing, but
Speaker 1: other than that, it does not get rid of all
Speaker 1: of the things that I mean, if you're worried about
Speaker 1: the gore and the substance, wait till you get you
Speaker 1: feel gross watching a twenty two year old dance naked
Speaker 1: and have sex for money?
Speaker 2: What made you stop watching?
Speaker 1: I went to sleep, okay, so I wanted No, it
Speaker 1: wasn't that I was enjoying it. I'm just waiting for
Speaker 1: the they're there, like, I'll finish it to find out
Speaker 1: maybe I'm wrong, Maybe there'll be some sort of redeeming
Speaker 1: thing that will erase the first hour of just absolute
Speaker 1: smut and vulgarity.
Speaker 5: I know, down for that.
Speaker 1: Well, I like it when it's people that aren't doing
Speaker 1: it for money, you know, like this the Moviesaid Deborah
Speaker 1: and I watch that have a little sex in it.
Speaker 1: It's usually a love it is. It's more of a
Speaker 1: love thing. This is just this is the sad love mad.
Speaker 1: It's sad.
Speaker 2: We have a big Friday show.
Speaker 3: You're right, we haven't done a big Friday show for
Speaker 3: a while, so that means, of course we're going to
Speaker 3: do our nine news nugget. You need to know what
Speaker 3: you learned this week on The Gary and Shannon Show.
Speaker 3: Late in the show, you can always leave us a
Speaker 3: talkback message. Just hit that little microphone button while you're
Speaker 3: listening on the iHeart app and let us know what
Speaker 3: you learned. This week, President Trump is on his way
Speaker 3: out to California. He's stopping in North Carolina. First, he's
Speaker 3: going to be talking with first responders and some of
Speaker 3: the victims of Hurricane Helene after it made its way through.
Speaker 1: And then La This is going to be to obviously
Speaker 1: tour the fire damage. Gavin Newsom says he's excited to
Speaker 1: meet him and provide whatever resources he needs.
Speaker 3: There's okay, we have a lot to talk about when
Speaker 3: it comes to those two because supposedly Gavin Newsom was
Speaker 3: one of the people who invited President Trump back before
Speaker 3: he was president, invited him to come to Caloruna.
Speaker 5: I'm sensing a trap.
Speaker 1: I'm sensing Trump going to Houston and playing the Texans
Speaker 1: like I'm sensing there's Gavin's got something up his sleeve.
Speaker 3: Well, Gavin has said he never heard back from the
Speaker 3: president's official team, but that he is in communication with
Speaker 3: people who are close to Trump now. I don't know
Speaker 3: if he's still dropping dimes to Kimberly Gilfoyle, and that
Speaker 3: he considers her in the circles or not because she's not.
Speaker 3: But he has said he's going to meet President Trump
Speaker 3: at the base of the staircase of Air Force One
Speaker 3: when he lands this afternoon.
Speaker 1: They haven't spoken since twenty twenty. I believe Trump and
Speaker 1: Gavin Newsom oh ps. The big headline this hour is
Speaker 1: that Trump proposes getting rid of FEMA the States to
Speaker 1: take care of themselves.
Speaker 5: We'll have all the latest coming out.
Speaker 3: We'll do that when we come back. Also your chance
Speaker 3: at one thousand dollars.
Speaker 4: Just on the other side, you're listening to Gary and
Speaker 4: Shannon on demand from kfi AM six forty.
Speaker 3: Gary and Shannon kfi AM six forty live everywhere on
Speaker 3: the iHeart Rate.
Speaker 2: I mean, Pete Carroll was great.
Speaker 5: Oh great coach.
Speaker 1: He's infectious, he's got a great personality. I think he's
Speaker 1: wonderful at what he did. But it's it's time to go.
Speaker 1: It's done. And the Raiders trying to breathe life into that.
Speaker 1: I mean, it's with your seventy four year old head
Speaker 1: incess bride stuff to me.
Speaker 2: It's also the.
Speaker 3: Just the brand that is the Raiders. Yeah, go for
Speaker 3: a younger aggressive I mean John Gruden's style coach right, right, right,
Speaker 3: Pete Carroll's seventy four.
Speaker 1: Yeah, but he's got more energy than a lot of
Speaker 1: forty year old and that's that's true.
Speaker 2: But still, I mean, I think you're right. The heyday
Speaker 2: was was a while ago. The Senate voted yesterday.
Speaker 3: We told you to advance thenomination of Pete Hegseth to
Speaker 3: be Trump's Secretary of Defense. That was a fifty one
Speaker 3: to forty nine vote on a procedural measure to end debate.
Speaker 3: They are expected to vote in the entire Senate for
Speaker 3: his confirmation, but it will be close. That is expected
Speaker 3: to come late today. The world's largest iceberg, a wall
Speaker 3: of ice the size of Rhode Island, is headed towards
Speaker 3: a remote island off of Antarctica that's home to millions
Speaker 3: of penguins and seals.
Speaker 2: They called this a megaburg.
Speaker 3: It's a trillion ton slab of ice they're saying could
Speaker 3: slam into South Georgia Island and either get stuck or
Speaker 3: maybe guided around it by the currents. If it gets stuck,
Speaker 3: they said it could make it hard for penguin parents
Speaker 3: to feed their babies, and that some penguin babies could
Speaker 3: even start.
Speaker 5: We've got to go there and feed the baby penguin.
Speaker 2: I don't know how to get to South Georgia Island.
Speaker 1: Well, we can start to try and research that.
Speaker 3: It also seems like the iceberg itself is large enough.
Speaker 3: You could probably land on the iceberg.
Speaker 1: Sure, And then we could bring little baby fish for
Speaker 1: the baby penguins, feed them like this.
Speaker 2: We could bring them some delta smelt.
Speaker 1: We don't have any leftew, very hard to find them.
Speaker 3: Before we get into our story about the fires and
Speaker 3: the president and the governor, et cetera, we have a
Speaker 3: chance for you to win one thousand dollars.

Speaker 1: It's just into the Gary and Shannon show. So President
Speaker 1: Trump is scheduled to arrive at LAX about two thirty
Speaker 1: this afternoon ahead of his visit to the Pacific Palisades
Speaker 1: burn area.
Speaker 5: That's going to be fun traffic time, is it not?
Speaker 1: Stay away from West LA this afternoon?
Speaker 2: Yeah, I have fun on that Friday evening commute.
Speaker 1: You can guarantee that I would. I would stay away
Speaker 1: for days.
Speaker 3: Didn't we do a didn't we do TV over there
Speaker 3: one day when the president or vice president was in town?
Speaker 5: Never again?
Speaker 1: Well, for a couple of reasons. Three twenty I don't
Speaker 1: think I ever aged into television, but I've certainly aged out.
Speaker 1: At three twenty five, Trump and the First Lady will
Speaker 1: take a tour of the Pacific Palisades neighborhood along with
Speaker 1: the LA Fire Department officials and three homeowners affected by
Speaker 1: the fire. He's going to go to a briefing at
Speaker 1: four h five in the Palisades. That meeting will include
Speaker 1: Mayor Karen Bass, eight members of California's congressional delegation, Catherine Barger,
Speaker 1: and some other people that you don't know or I
Speaker 1: don't know either, just executives with the water and Energy people.
Speaker 1: Gavin Newsome, this is a note not on the list
Speaker 1: of attendees at either of the President's events. So if
Speaker 1: he does meet with him, it's going to be that
Speaker 1: tarmac photo op meeting where you've got to believe it
Speaker 1: is scripted to the t in terms of body language,
Speaker 1: in terms of hand movements, in terms of facial expressions,
Speaker 1: all of it is going to be coyographed.
Speaker 2: Because this on which Gavin, because.
Speaker 1: This is Gavin's photo op that he's going to use
Speaker 1: to run for president.
Speaker 5: I guarantee it.
Speaker 1: Trumps scheduled to leave Lax shortly before six pm en
Speaker 1: route to Las Vegas, which means he's got to get
Speaker 1: to Lax by six pm.
Speaker 5: Again, don't go.
Speaker 1: If you live in West La move I would move
Speaker 1: early afternoon.
Speaker 2: I think they helicopter him. They do.
Speaker 1: But still the airspace, all of it, the traffic, it's
Speaker 1: a mess.
Speaker 5: It's just going to be a mess.
Speaker 2: Okay.
Speaker 3: So speaking of just do you want to hear from
Speaker 3: Gavin First or Trump?
Speaker 2: Because pick your point, all right.
Speaker 3: So Gavin first, talking specifically, he was asked yesterday about
Speaker 3: the two and a half billion dollars the state has
Speaker 3: approved for some of the initial wild wildfire relief. And
Speaker 3: the question was about his relationship with Trump and what's
Speaker 3: going to happen today, knowing that he wasn't actually part
Speaker 3: of that guest list, if you.
Speaker 7: Will, I communicate with a lot of folks around him,
Speaker 7: folks that have his ear and influence folks. So I
Speaker 7: don't want this is a side show a lot of
Speaker 7: this stuff, but I know it's the show that's probably
Speaker 7: the focus of a little bit too much tomorrow, when
Speaker 7: all I care about is what we can do together, Okay.
Speaker 3: And I hope that that is absolutely true. Now here's
Speaker 3: the other part that you were mentioning about FEMA. In
Speaker 3: the interview that Trump did with Hannity on Fox this week,
Speaker 3: he discussed FEMA and what it has become or had
Speaker 3: to become under the Biden administration.
Speaker 8: FEMA is going to be a whole big discussion very shortly,
Speaker 8: because I'd rather see this. States take care of their
Speaker 8: own problems, you don't need, and then the federal government
Speaker 8: can help them out with the money. The FEMA is
Speaker 8: getting in the way of everything.
Speaker 2: He said, we're looking at the same concept of FEMA.
Speaker 2: The concept.
Speaker 3: When North Carolina gets hit, the governor takes care of it.
Speaker 3: When Florida gets hit, the governor takes care of it.
Speaker 3: That the states take care of it. And he says
Speaker 3: to have a group of people come in from an
Speaker 3: area they don't even know where they're going in order
Speaker 3: to solve immediately a problem is something that never worked
Speaker 3: for me.
Speaker 5: Isn't that what goes on now though?
Speaker 1: Isn't that the status quo that the states handle the
Speaker 1: initial response, local government's, county, regional, state, and then FEMA
Speaker 1: does come in with that federal money and kind of
Speaker 1: comes in secondhand.
Speaker 3: Yeah, and does the bigger things that the state may
Speaker 3: not be able to do. It coordinates sources from outside
Speaker 3: the state that they could bring in that the federal
Speaker 3: government would have the control over.
Speaker 1: There are certain states that can handle their own business California, Florida, Texas, well,
Speaker 1: Texas here and there, but there are a number of
Speaker 1: that need FEMA because they're just not big enough to
Speaker 1: have that kind of infrastructure to respond to a disaster.
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, and listen.
Speaker 3: Part of what he's doing is retribution for the allegations
Speaker 3: that FEMA was politicized under the Biden administration. That's what
Speaker 3: he is fighting back against. He wants to at least
Speaker 3: try to unpoliticize it, which in some cases can be
Speaker 3: seen as him politicizing it for his side. Listen, it's
Speaker 3: FEMA is a is an agency that is absolutely necessary
Speaker 3: and has proven itself time and time again.
Speaker 2: Is there a way to tighten it up.
Speaker 3: And is there a way for maybe FEMA to simply
Speaker 3: write checks for the state, because to his point, the
Speaker 3: state understands what they need. The state and local governments
Speaker 3: understand what they need more so than some federal bureaucrat
Speaker 3: based somewhere in a suburb of Virginia. Absolutely, but FEMA
Speaker 3: is not just solely an organization that has employees that
Speaker 3: live in the DC area. FEMA is all over the country.
Speaker 3: I think we're in District nine here. I think that's
Speaker 3: where we've been getting these email press releases from. So
Speaker 3: when we come back, we'll talk about the what President
Speaker 3: Trump has said he wants from California. He didn't necessarily
Speaker 3: say he was tying it to federal relief funds, but
Speaker 3: he's been very clear about what he wants from the
Speaker 3: state of California. And once again, the top of the
Speaker 3: map where the water is apparently flows down to the
Speaker 3: bottom of the map where the water isn't at least
Speaker 3: according in his brain.
Speaker 2: According to his brain.
Speaker 5: Gary and Shannon will continue it.
Speaker 4: You're listening to Gary and Shannon on demand from KFI
Speaker 4: AM six forty.
Speaker 1: So I'm not going out on a limb here thinking
Speaker 1: that maybe you guys didn't have dessert after of course
Speaker 1: we did, oh about it was dessert.
Speaker 2: Spirit Airlines is shaken up.
Speaker 3: It's in flight policies, new dress codes that they've unveiled.
Speaker 3: You cannot wear revealing clothing, you cannot display offensive tattoos,
Speaker 3: and this is part of their contract of carriage. So
Speaker 3: Spirit Airlines is making it official that when you book
Speaker 3: your tickets, you click the little box that says you
Speaker 3: agree to their contract of carriage. So don't be surprised
Speaker 3: when you get kicked off your next flight from Spirit.
Speaker 1: All right, Well, California is going to spend two point
Speaker 1: five billion to help the area recover from the wildfires
Speaker 1: with this relief package signed yesterday, two point five billion
Speaker 1: for the States emergency disaster response efforts, evacuations, shelter, things
Speaker 1: like that, removing household hazardous waste, which has been kind
Speaker 1: of one of those things that this seems to have
Speaker 1: been procrastinated upon.
Speaker 3: Yeah, there's a everything. Infrastructure of every kind has been
Speaker 3: affected by these fires, will continue to be affected. If
Speaker 3: we see more wins coming in. There's a chance that
Speaker 3: with the rain coming in, we will see some mud
Speaker 3: slides and that could cause even more problems.
Speaker 1: Steven Keller is the Pacific market president with Verizon, joins
Speaker 1: us now about how Verizon plans to help get things
Speaker 1: back up and running.
Speaker 5: Steven, thanks for coming on.
Speaker 9: It's my pleasure. Thanks for having me.
Speaker 3: Let's discuss what kind of things that companies like yours
Speaker 3: can do in the aftermath of something like we've seen
Speaker 3: the last couple of weeks.
Speaker 9: Yeah, thank you very much. So first and foremost, you know,
Speaker 9: on behalf of the company, we are deeply, deeply committed
Speaker 9: to the Los Angeles area. You know, my team and
Speaker 9: I we live, work and play in Los Angeles. So
Speaker 9: this is more than just personal. You know, when you
Speaker 9: think about Southern California to home to Verizon employees, So
Speaker 9: when disaster strikes, it's personal. So we support the community's
Speaker 9: hardest hit. We're doing so knowing that we're helping our friends, family,
Speaker 9: and neighbors as well, so we're waving charges for the
Speaker 9: hardest hit areas. Connectivity shouldn't be a luxury and a crisis,
Speaker 9: which is why we're waiving call, text and data fees
Speaker 9: for customers in California's hardest hit counties. We're also offering
Speaker 9: relief in the nine area stores closest to the impacted areas.
Speaker 9: We're providing free charging, Wi Fi, bottle water. Because when
Speaker 9: our communities need a helping hand, we always show up.
Speaker 9: We've also partnered with the Red Cross. I myself have
Speaker 9: personally been to the American Red Cross shelter in Pasadena
Speaker 9: near Altadena. We're teaming up with the Red Cross. We're
Speaker 9: bringing free Wi Fi and charging stations to multiple shelters,
Speaker 9: ensuring no one is isolated when they need help the most,
Speaker 9: and that matters. I've seen it personally. We've also got
Speaker 9: a WEK set up in the Malibu First Command Center.
Speaker 9: WEX stands for Wireless Emergency Communications Center. It's a lifeline
Speaker 9: for families. We provide free device charging, Wi Fi access
Speaker 9: to our network. It's one more way we're making sure
Speaker 9: that people stay stay in touch during this crisis. And
Speaker 9: we all know that having connectivity is really where it's that.
Speaker 9: And finally, I'll just tell you I'm very proud to
Speaker 9: reiterate that our one million dollar donation reflects our deep
Speaker 9: roots in these communities. We've made a one million dollar
Speaker 9: pledge split into five hundred thousand dollars to the LA
Speaker 9: Fire Department Foundation for our essential firefighting tools and another
Speaker 9: five hundred thousand to the Red Cross to support recovery
Speaker 9: efforts right here at home in Los Angeles. So our
Speaker 9: commitment has always been to first responders, our commitments to
Speaker 9: the community, our commitments to our friends' family, neighbors.
Speaker 1: Steven, awesome, good to hear. Nice to see a companies
Speaker 1: stepping up again. Verizon free charging and Wi Fi all
Speaker 1: local retail store locations if you're looking for a Wi
Speaker 1: Fi spot where you don't have to spend any money.
Speaker 2: Steven, thanks for your time.
Speaker 9: Thank you very much, you too appreciate it.
Speaker 3: Steven Keller, there again, Pacific Market President for Verizon. This
Speaker 3: issue of money coming from the federal government is hopefully
Speaker 3: not tied to conditions, but President Trump has been talking
Speaker 3: about the potential for there to be some things that
Speaker 3: he'd like to see in the state of California, and
Speaker 3: he added a new one today in terms of what
Speaker 3: he would like to see for the state of California,
Speaker 3: maybe as a condition for federal moneys coming in. Is
Speaker 3: it it's not ponies, It's not free pony rides.
Speaker 2: Not free pony rides.
Speaker 5: Is it food for the baby penguins?
Speaker 2: Also? No, okay, there are not a lot of penguins
Speaker 2: in California. I mean there are. Something.
Speaker 1: Doesn't mean we can't do our part to go to
Speaker 1: George Island or or Georgia whatever.
Speaker 2: Excellent point.
Speaker 4: You're listening to Gary and Shannon on demand from KFI
Speaker 4: AM six forty.
Speaker 1: I am very intrigued by Trump's call to unseal or
Speaker 1: unredact the files about the JFKRFK and m l K
Speaker 1: assassination files. A lot in there, a lot of people
Speaker 1: worried about this, people that work under the umbrella of
Speaker 1: places called the CIA and the FBI. Trump's of a
Speaker 1: certain age. My dad was the same way. A little
Speaker 1: obsessed with the assassinations, a little obsessed with what the
Speaker 1: government wasn't telling us, a little obsessed about was he
Speaker 1: the lone gunman on the grassy Knoll? And what role
Speaker 1: did the CIA play. Oh, he was in the book depository.
Speaker 1: You mean was there was he doing in Mexico City?
Speaker 1: What did he act alone? How was the FBI involved
Speaker 1: with JFK and all the tapes surrounding JFK's romance an
Speaker 1: affair with Marilyn Monroe in her effort to expose him.
Speaker 1: The FBI was entrenched in that whole affair, and the
Speaker 1: CIA was entrenched and the FBI as well in MLK
Speaker 1: and his affairs. It's just dirty, dirty, It's a anora,
Speaker 1: it's a nourra up in those files.
Speaker 2: Uh.
Speaker 3: President Trump is live in Swanna Noah, North Carolina. He's
Speaker 3: holding a news conference with some of the victims of
Speaker 3: Hurricane Helene, who have said that the federal government hasn't
Speaker 3: done enough to help them out.
Speaker 2: Before he left, No, I take that back.
Speaker 3: When he landed in North Carolina this morning at the airport,
Speaker 3: he was asked several questions about what this trip is
Speaker 3: going to be again North Carolina, California, and the Nevada
Speaker 3: throughout the day today, and he discussed a few things.
Speaker 3: First of all, about what he's going to do here
Speaker 3: in California.
Speaker 6: We're gonna do a good job in California, that is
Speaker 6: a disaster like I don't know if we've ever seen
Speaker 6: anything like it. Frankly, they say the biggest in the
Speaker 6: history of California. I think has anything bigger than that
Speaker 6: happened in the whole country. Ever, it looks like I
Speaker 6: don't want to say what it looks like, but you
Speaker 6: know what I'm going to say. It looks like something
Speaker 6: hit it. And we won't talk about what hited. But
Speaker 6: it is a bad, bad situation, and I guess I'm
Speaker 6: gonna beet with some government officials, but I mean much
Speaker 6: more importantly, and in California, just to revert to it
Speaker 6: for a second, millions of gallons of water are waiting
Speaker 6: to be poured down through already the half pipes that
Speaker 6: are already built. I mean they've been up for forty years.
Speaker 6: And about twenty years ago they turned off the water.
Speaker 6: And it's the water that comes from the Pacific northwest.
Speaker 4: Some of it comes out.
Speaker 6: Of Canada and it floats there and it probably has
Speaker 6: flowed there for a million years, and they turned it
Speaker 6: off and they routed out to the Pacific. And in
Speaker 6: the meantime, you don't have water in the hydrants, you
Speaker 6: don't have water in the sprinkler systems. It's the craziest
Speaker 6: thing I've ever seen. And everyone's trying to figure out
Speaker 6: why aren't they turning it back. They say it's the
Speaker 6: delta's smelt that say fish. But I find that hard
Speaker 6: to believe. But we'll figure it out.
Speaker 3: Okay, Can somebody get Doug Bergham on the phone. He's
Speaker 3: going to be the Department of Interior secretary and explain
Speaker 3: how water, how water works in the Western United States,
Speaker 3: just for a moment. Just get somebody in there so
Speaker 3: he'll stop saying that water comes from the Pacific Northwest
Speaker 3: through halfpipes. I I don't even know. Listen, I don't
Speaker 3: even know what he's talking about it anymore. And it's
Speaker 3: it's the it's the ridiculous thing that no one close
Speaker 3: enough to him has the ability to say to him,
Speaker 3: you're misspeaking when.
Speaker 2: You do this.
Speaker 1: We have gotten a lot of heat about this, which
Speaker 1: is weird. People are dying on the Trump is right
Speaker 1: about the water hill.
Speaker 3: And the valve, and the valve, the valve that apparently
Speaker 3: exists somewhere in central Oregon.
Speaker 1: I'm happy to have the conversation about moving water from
Speaker 1: northern California and the snowpack and the whole bit down
Speaker 1: to southern California. I'm happy to have the water reclamation talk,
Speaker 1: the reservoir.
Speaker 3: Talk, what what share farmers should get where. We're happy
Speaker 3: to have all that. Absolutely the realistic talk, dealing in reality.
Speaker 3: And it's not us saying that Trump's a bad thing.
Speaker 3: It's it's just that, show me, show me the math
Speaker 3: on that, and I'm happy to to dive into it.
Speaker 3: But there has been no I don't I don't know
Speaker 3: what valve he's speaking of, nobody to water experts. I've
Speaker 3: read ad nauseum articles from takes on people who live
Speaker 3: and breathe.
Speaker 2: Water, water and culture.
Speaker 5: They are completely flummoxed.
Speaker 3: So he had said in that interview with Fox that
Speaker 3: one of the things he's thinking of is withholding federal
Speaker 3: funds until California gets since water policy.
Speaker 2: To a position that he wants to see. He added
Speaker 2: something to that today, I want to.
Speaker 6: See two things in Los Angeles. Voter ID so that
Speaker 6: the people have a chance to vote, and I want
Speaker 6: to see the water be released and come down into
Speaker 6: Los Angeles and throughout the state. Those are the two things.
Speaker 6: After that, I will be the greatest president that California
Speaker 6: has ever seen.
Speaker 4: Well there, I.
Speaker 6: Want the water to come down and come down to
Speaker 6: Los Angeles and also go out to all the farmland
Speaker 6: that's barren and dry. You know, they have land that
Speaker 6: they say is the equivalent of the land in Iowa,
Speaker 6: which is about as good as there is anywhere on earth.
Speaker 6: The problem is it's artificial because they artificially stop the
Speaker 6: water from going onto the land. So I want two things.
Speaker 6: I want voter ID for the people of California. They
Speaker 6: all want it right now. You don't have voter ID.
Speaker 6: People want to have voter identification, You want to have
Speaker 6: proof of citizenship, ideally have one day voting. But I
Speaker 6: just want voter ideas to start, and I want the
Speaker 6: water to be released. And they're going to get a
Speaker 6: lot of help from the US.
Speaker 3: Okay, So he didn't actually in those comments tie voter
Speaker 3: ID to whether or not we get federal management federal
Speaker 3: relief money for fires, but it was an I don't
Speaker 3: know where the ID. I agree with him we should
Speaker 3: have voter ID, but I don't know why it came
Speaker 3: up in this context. So he is on his way
Speaker 3: to California A little bit later, Like I said, he's
Speaker 3: in North Carolina right now and hearing from and holding
Speaker 3: a news conference with some of the members of Swanna Noah,
Speaker 3: North Carolina, little town that was ripped apart by Hurricane
Speaker 3: Helene few months ago.
Speaker 2: We'll revisit some of this stuff.
Speaker 3: This will continue, and like we said, there's going to
Speaker 3: be some traffic nightmare issues coming later this afternoon, especially
Speaker 3: on the west side, since he is going to be
Speaker 3: landing at Lax later.
Speaker 5: Today coming up next.
Speaker 1: It was possibly the first great televised event in our
Speaker 1: country's history.
Speaker 5: It wasn't great.
Speaker 1: It was the assassination, the end of innocence, the assassination
Speaker 1: of JFK. Maybe one of the reasons why Trump loves
Speaker 1: it so much, or loves the idea of unredacting the
Speaker 1: remaining files that have not been released about the assassination
Speaker 1: of JFK, RFK and MLK Junior. Because he loves television
Speaker 1: and he loves the drama, and he even said, this
Speaker 1: is going to be a big one, Isn't it?
