Well, the House did pass that 115 00:06:25.439 --> 00:06:29.800 funding bill, I had a Friday shutdown of the government, 116 00:06:30.639 --> 00:06:37.040 and Mike Johnson won this one. Actually, President Trump won 117 00:06:37.360 --> 00:06:39.720 this one overcoming a. 118 00:06:39.600 --> 00:06:41.519 Far right opposition. Kind of interesting. 119 00:06:41.600 --> 00:06:44.639 The far right of the Republican Party does not like 120 00:06:44.800 --> 00:06:48.240 a lot of what Trump is doing, and that is 121 00:06:48.439 --> 00:06:51.519 spending more money that's coming in. They would like to 122 00:06:51.639 --> 00:06:58.680 see revenues at least come within shouting distance of what 123 00:06:58.839 --> 00:07:03.480 comes in versus what is spent. So the stopgap bill 124 00:07:03.839 --> 00:07:07.000 was passed two hundred and seventeen to two thirteen. 125 00:07:07.160 --> 00:07:13.600 You talk about just a minuscule, razor thin majority. Okay. 126 00:07:14.439 --> 00:07:16.879 By the way, eight Senate Democrats are going to be 127 00:07:16.920 --> 00:07:18.439 needed to vote with the GOP. 128 00:07:18.240 --> 00:07:21.959 To accept the bill. It will be accepted, I think. Okay. 129 00:07:22.800 --> 00:07:26.680 All we are saying is give Piece a chance. Ukraine 130 00:07:26.720 --> 00:07:30.079 has accepted a thirty day ceasefire proposed by the United 131 00:07:30.120 --> 00:07:33.519 States that came after eight hours of meetings in Saudi 132 00:07:33.519 --> 00:07:37.519 Arabia yesterday. It covers the entire frontline of the fighting 133 00:07:37.519 --> 00:07:40.759 with Russia, not just the air and sea. And now 134 00:07:41.240 --> 00:07:44.399 the US needs to take this over to Russia. US 135 00:07:44.480 --> 00:07:48.759 Secretary of State Marco Rubio says that we hope Russia 136 00:07:48.800 --> 00:07:51.680 will say yes, that they will say yes to Piece. 137 00:07:51.800 --> 00:07:53.800 The ball is in their court. 138 00:07:54.959 --> 00:07:55.839 Well, see what happens. 139 00:07:55.879 --> 00:08:00.399 You know, this is you know the madness or the 140 00:08:00.399 --> 00:08:03.839 method to the madness. And what did Trump promise day one? 141 00:08:04.160 --> 00:08:07.399 He's gonna make sure that there's a piece between Ukraine 142 00:08:07.399 --> 00:08:11.720 and Russia. Obviously day one stuff is an exaggeration, that's 143 00:08:11.759 --> 00:08:15.279 sort of a given. But he's, what a little over 144 00:08:15.319 --> 00:08:18.439 a month into his first term and they're sitting down 145 00:08:18.480 --> 00:08:19.199 for the first time. 146 00:08:19.519 --> 00:08:22.279 Now, what does he do? How does he do it? Well? 147 00:08:22.319 --> 00:08:25.720 He cuts off all aid to Ukraine and says, no 148 00:08:25.839 --> 00:08:27.560 more American arms to you. 149 00:08:27.720 --> 00:08:29.879 Without American arms, they won't have a chance. 150 00:08:30.639 --> 00:08:34.039 Russia is instantly winning this war, and so Ukraine all 151 00:08:34.039 --> 00:08:36.200 of a sudden says, okay, we'll come to the table. 152 00:08:36.559 --> 00:08:38.840 Coming to the table means that Ukraine is going. 153 00:08:38.639 --> 00:08:43.159 To lose a good part of its land, like about 154 00:08:43.159 --> 00:08:47.320 a third of it, and we'll see what Russia does. 155 00:08:47.480 --> 00:08:51.559 Is Russia willing read Putin because he controls Russia one 156 00:08:51.600 --> 00:08:54.600 hundred percent, Is he willing to sit down? 157 00:08:55.440 --> 00:08:57.519 And you know, is it going to happen? Is not 158 00:08:57.559 --> 00:08:58.039 going to happen? 159 00:08:58.120 --> 00:09:00.360 Who the hell knows, But he's going to end He's 160 00:09:00.399 --> 00:09:01.960 going to end up winning in the sense that he 161 00:09:02.039 --> 00:09:06.159 invaded because he wanted that part of Ukraine which he 162 00:09:06.320 --> 00:09:11.600 views as Russia, which is hysterically Russia historically and hysterically 163 00:09:11.919 --> 00:09:13.159 but historically Russia. 164 00:09:13.759 --> 00:09:15.279 So we'll see the. 165 00:09:15.159 --> 00:09:19.759 Ball is now in Russia's court with Ukraine ready and 166 00:09:19.840 --> 00:09:23.000 willing to sit down. And this is Trump forcing the issue, 167 00:09:23.559 --> 00:09:26.720 forcing the issue, and you know, he said he's going 168 00:09:26.759 --> 00:09:28.159 to We'll see how successful it is. 169 00:09:29.360 --> 00:09:30.600 You know, he's also did. 170 00:09:30.480 --> 00:09:34.879 That thing where sitting down with Kim Jong un and 171 00:09:35.159 --> 00:09:37.559 somehow something was going to happen, and of course nothing 172 00:09:37.600 --> 00:09:40.320 happened as a result, other than I guess he got 173 00:09:40.360 --> 00:09:44.720 some Korean food out of that Korean barbecue. 174 00:09:45.159 --> 00:09:49.039 You ever get to a Korean barbecue. I like Korean barbecue. 175 00:09:49.039 --> 00:09:50.679 It's kind of neat. You cook it with the little 176 00:09:50.720 --> 00:09:53.320 strips of beef. Whether it's beef or not is a 177 00:09:53.320 --> 00:09:56.840 different issue. Okay, let's go ahead and take a break. 178 00:09:57.080 --> 00:09:59.200 We'll be what and what. 179 00:10:01.000 --> 00:10:06.120 Stop what it's true, it's questionable, all right, they're back. 180 00:10:06.399 --> 00:10:10.279 Case of measles has been confirmed in a Los Angeles 181 00:10:10.360 --> 00:10:14.919 County resident recently traveled through the Los Angeles International Airport. 182 00:10:15.480 --> 00:10:18.720 This comes from the County's Department of Public Health.

One county in Texas, 190 00:10:53.200 --> 00:10:58.320 it's a Mennonite county where Mennonites live, so and they're 191 00:10:58.360 --> 00:11:01.679 not vaccinated. Huge number of these people are not vaccinated, 192 00:11:01.720 --> 00:11:05.320 especially the kids. And it's not politics. It's not Robert Kennedy, 193 00:11:05.480 --> 00:11:11.159 it's not vaccines are autism linked. It's a question of 194 00:11:12.200 --> 00:11:13.639 we're not going to have the government tell us what 195 00:11:13.679 --> 00:11:16.240 to do. It's we live our own life in our 196 00:11:16.240 --> 00:11:17.000 own community. 197 00:11:18.320 --> 00:11:18.559 Yeah. 198 00:11:18.720 --> 00:11:20.679 How's that working out for you? Is your kids are 199 00:11:20.720 --> 00:11:23.960 popping off? Okay, yeah, maybe you want to rethink that. 200 00:11:27.159 --> 00:11:30.519 Pink slips are flying At the Department of Education. More 201 00:11:30.559 --> 00:11:37.159 than thirteen hundred Education Department employees got termination notices last night. 202 00:11:37.600 --> 00:11:40.679 They went out starting at about six pm. In addition 203 00:11:40.759 --> 00:11:44.840 to that, more than five hundred and seventy employees accepted 204 00:11:44.879 --> 00:11:50.039 buyout offers in exchange for their resignations. The department is 205 00:11:50.440 --> 00:11:53.759 working to cut from forty one hundred thirty three workers 206 00:11:53.799 --> 00:11:57.240 to twenty one hundred eighty three and then, as President 207 00:11:57.279 --> 00:11:59.159 Trump is said, he eventually wants to get rid of 208 00:11:59.159 --> 00:12:00.240 the Department of Education. 209 00:12:01.799 --> 00:12:04.759 Now, the problement of education is kind of interesting. It 210 00:12:04.840 --> 00:12:09.519 was created by Jimmy Carter, didn't exist before that. And 211 00:12:09.600 --> 00:12:12.399 as Neil and the rest of us pointed out, let's 212 00:12:12.399 --> 00:12:14.559 look at the education system in this country. Boy has 213 00:12:14.600 --> 00:12:17.759 that gone uphill right, done a great job since Carter 214 00:12:18.000 --> 00:12:22.480 was president. Test scores are low, are keeping dropping, and 215 00:12:22.559 --> 00:12:25.080 so what do you do with the department. Now it 216 00:12:25.159 --> 00:12:29.600 does have programs in which money is given to certain 217 00:12:29.639 --> 00:12:33.080 school boards and food programs and that sort of thing. 218 00:12:33.159 --> 00:12:36.600 But prior to that, it was other departments. 219 00:12:37.240 --> 00:12:39.759 And so Trump has said, we don't need the Department 220 00:12:39.799 --> 00:12:44.200 of Education, and Linda McMahon is tasked in Department of 221 00:12:44.279 --> 00:12:46.440 Education secretary to getting yourself out of a job. 222 00:12:47.759 --> 00:12:49.679 So, you know, I mean, what do you do with that? 223 00:12:49.840 --> 00:12:51.279 I mean, do you need the department? 224 00:12:51.360 --> 00:12:54.440 And there are thousands of workers there who obviously are 225 00:12:54.480 --> 00:12:55.279 going to get canned. 226 00:12:55.279 --> 00:12:56.559 But there's an argument there. 227 00:12:57.360 --> 00:12:59.200 You know, the FAA, for example, do you know when 228 00:12:59.200 --> 00:13:04.519 the FAA start started? Actually the founding father started it 229 00:13:04.559 --> 00:13:05.960 knowing the airplane was gonna be invented. 230 00:13:05.960 --> 00:13:06.960 Two hundred years later. 231 00:13:07.600 --> 00:13:10.279 Oh it's constitutional. 232 00:13:10.080 --> 00:13:11.759 No, it's a little bit of history. I thought i'd 233 00:13:11.759 --> 00:13:12.279 share with you. 234 00:13:12.799 --> 00:13:13.159 Thanks. 235 00:13:13.440 --> 00:13:19.240 You're really on point this morning, all right. President Donald 236 00:13:19.279 --> 00:13:24.679 Trump imposed sweeping twenty five percent tariffs on all steel 237 00:13:24.799 --> 00:13:29.279 and aluminum imported into the United States. These tariffs on 238 00:13:29.320 --> 00:13:33.200 steel and aluminum marked the first time in Trump's second 239 00:13:33.279 --> 00:13:36.919 term that a set of tariffs has been applied to 240 00:13:37.240 --> 00:13:38.360 all countries. 241 00:13:38.960 --> 00:13:39.879 And that's kicking in. 242 00:13:40.159 --> 00:13:44.720 It did kick in midnight one am or twelve oh 243 00:13:44.759 --> 00:13:47.320 one this morning. And this is really going to hit 244 00:13:48.360 --> 00:13:51.360 Canada the most. You know, ninety percent of the aluminum 245 00:13:51.720 --> 00:13:55.600 that the United States uses comes in from Canada or 246 00:13:55.759 --> 00:13:56.159 comes in. 247 00:13:56.120 --> 00:13:58.360 From foreign sources. The vast majority is Canada. 248 00:13:59.080 --> 00:14:03.000 He's going to disrupt a few things, right, prices as 249 00:14:03.120 --> 00:14:05.039 promised day one, and not. 250 00:14:05.120 --> 00:14:07.559 Quite, not quite. 251 00:14:08.080 --> 00:14:11.200 You're hearing more and more. This is the Trump economy 252 00:14:11.240 --> 00:14:12.200 that he's dealing with. 253 00:14:12.279 --> 00:14:16.440 What he inherited, by the way, he inherited a great economy. 254 00:14:17.039 --> 00:14:21.200 You know, inflation had dropped down to under three percent 255 00:14:21.360 --> 00:14:23.240 by the time he came into office. 256 00:14:23.759 --> 00:14:25.320 Those those are. 257 00:14:26.720 --> 00:14:30.480 People weren't living a great economy. If you go throughout America, 258 00:14:30.559 --> 00:14:33.080 they weren't like this. Every a good point. No, that's 259 00:14:33.080 --> 00:14:33.559 a good point. 260 00:14:33.960 --> 00:14:36.879 Those are those numbers are are no, because they were 261 00:14:36.879 --> 00:14:40.799 already baked in inflation. Even with inflation having dropped, Let's 262 00:14:40.799 --> 00:14:45.279 say invation and inflation drops to zero, right, and nothing 263 00:14:46.480 --> 00:14:51.600 is no increase whatsoever. We're still paying astronomical on money 264 00:14:51.639 --> 00:14:55.480 for the a dozen eggs. We're still paying astronomical numbers 265 00:14:55.519 --> 00:15:01.360 for and so you know that's baked in already, like 266 00:15:01.720 --> 00:15:04.360 interest rates. You know, two and a half percent interest 267 00:15:04.440 --> 00:15:08.120 rates were sort of baked into our heads. When interest 268 00:15:08.200 --> 00:15:10.360 rates went up. Oh my god, that's terrible. They went 269 00:15:10.440 --> 00:15:12.559 up to normal levels. 270 00:15:13.480 --> 00:15:13.759 Yeah. 271 00:15:13.799 --> 00:15:16.240 It's like when they say they're making progress with the 272 00:15:16.279 --> 00:15:20.120 homeless situation here in la I look around and they go, no, 273 00:15:20.200 --> 00:15:20.559 you're not. 274 00:15:21.159 --> 00:15:24.120 I don't care what your numbers are. You got to 275 00:15:24.159 --> 00:15:26.679 look and see what the other reality is. 276 00:15:26.879 --> 00:15:30.399 It's a question of getting used to whatever's going on. 277 00:15:30.519 --> 00:15:32.399 There's going to reach a point where we're just used 278 00:15:32.440 --> 00:15:36.960 to eggs at eight dollars a dozen, and we tend 279 00:15:37.000 --> 00:15:40.480 to forget. You know how bad it can be as 280 00:15:40.519 --> 00:15:42.320 time goes by. All right, I think we have time 281 00:15:42.440 --> 00:15:44.279 for one more before we bail out of here. 282 00:15:46.080 --> 00:15:51.399 California colleges are told that they better protect their Jewish students. 283 00:15:51.879 --> 00:15:56.960 USC Pomona, Santa Monica, and Chapman University are among sixty 284 00:15:56.960 --> 00:16:00.879 colleges and universities around the US. They got letters telling 285 00:16:00.919 --> 00:16:05.360 them they need to fulfill their obligations under Title six 286 00:16:05.440 --> 00:16:09.000 of the Civil Rights Act, which prohibits any institution receiving 287 00:16:09.039 --> 00:16:12.519 federal funds from discriminating on the basis of race, colored 288 00:16:12.600 --> 00:16:17.799 national origin, and that includes uninterrupted access to campus facilities 289 00:16:17.840 --> 00:16:22.399 and educational opportunities. The focus is on Jewish students who 290 00:16:22.399 --> 00:16:25.320 were harassed or threatened in pro Palestinian protests. 291 00:16:25.600 --> 00:16:27.440 Now I'm going to do more about that at seven 292 00:16:27.600 --> 00:16:28.159 a m. 293 00:16:29.000 --> 00:16:33.360 And it's tough to be Jewish and in a wealth 294 00:16:33.799 --> 00:16:38.799 and in a wheelchair and African American, and I mean 295 00:16:39.000 --> 00:16:42.399 just that's a bad combination. I'm going to talk much 296 00:16:42.399 --> 00:16:45.000 more about that because there is a history of. 297 00:16:44.840 --> 00:16:47.399 That that I'm going to share with you. 298 00:16:47.879 --> 00:16:52.679 Okay, So authorities announced the arrest of three suspected fentanyl 299 00:16:52.840 --> 00:16:58.279 traffickers and the seizure of fourteen million lethal doses of 300 00:16:58.879 --> 00:17:01.759 the drug with an an estimated street value of about 301 00:17:01.759 --> 00:17:07.680 fifty five million dollars. They also confiscated some heroin and 302 00:17:07.680 --> 00:17:09.160 amphetamine as well. 303 00:17:10.359 --> 00:17:14.799 So these three guys are hopefully going to go to jail. 304 00:17:15.000 --> 00:17:15.799 For a long time. 305 00:17:15.920 --> 00:17:17.839 You ever noticed that, first of all, the amount of 306 00:17:17.880 --> 00:17:22.200 fentanyl that comes in it is pretty high, and effectively, 307 00:17:22.440 --> 00:17:26.039 in one bust, it's enough fentanyl to kill every human 308 00:17:26.079 --> 00:17:28.519 being on this planet, plus three people on the space station. 309 00:17:29.680 --> 00:17:32.759 And that's over and over again. We get these kinds 310 00:17:32.799 --> 00:17:37.359 of busts. Yeah, isn't everybody's dead, well because of the 311 00:17:37.599 --> 00:17:42.960 obviously not everybody buys illicit drugs, but you would think, well, 312 00:17:43.039 --> 00:17:44.920 let's the thing, you know what, I'm going to backtrack 313 00:17:44.960 --> 00:17:47.400 on that one, because the number of opiate deaths are 314 00:17:47.480 --> 00:17:51.079 primarily fentanyl now, and they're right around one hundred thousand 315 00:17:51.079 --> 00:17:52.240 a year in the US. 316 00:17:52.279 --> 00:17:53.559 I mean, it's a big, big deal. 317 00:17:54.079 --> 00:17:57.920 And so again method to the madness of Donald Trump 318 00:17:58.839 --> 00:18:01.920 arguing that we're going to do everything we can to 319 00:18:01.960 --> 00:18:04.720 stop fentanyl trafficking from going over the border from Exo, 320 00:18:04.960 --> 00:18:12.079 also fentanyl trafficking from Canada, which really doesn't exist. But yeah, 321 00:18:12.519 --> 00:18:15.119 that's and by the way, that was his primary reason 322 00:18:15.400 --> 00:18:19.240 for the tariffs, which now have switched over to financial reasons. 323 00:18:23.200 --> 00:18:27.319 Well, the oil and Dodgers don't mix. Cent A majority 324 00:18:27.359 --> 00:18:34.680 leader Lina Gonzalez of Long Beach has asked the Dodgers, 325 00:18:35.319 --> 00:18:39.000 the owner Mark Walter Walter to end the team sponsorship 326 00:18:39.079 --> 00:18:43.160 deals with oil and gas companies, telling him that continuing 327 00:18:43.200 --> 00:18:46.359 to associate these corporations with our beloved boys and Blue 328 00:18:46.400 --> 00:18:49.279 is not in our community or the planet's best interest. 329 00:18:49.319 --> 00:18:52.519 Of course, one of the Dodgers' most visible advertisers is 330 00:18:52.720 --> 00:18:55.440 Phillips sixty six, which owns the seventy six gas station. 331 00:18:55.599 --> 00:18:58.759 Jay, how long has the seventy six gas and the 332 00:18:58.759 --> 00:19:02.720 logo been around with its longer than most of us 333 00:19:02.799 --> 00:19:05.920 have been alive. I think they started right after the 334 00:19:05.960 --> 00:19:09.119 Dodgers moved from Brooklyn to Los Angeles. 335 00:19:09.200 --> 00:19:11.799 I mean around a long, long time early on. 336 00:19:11.880 --> 00:19:14.880 I remember Vince Scully talking about seventy six and doing 337 00:19:14.920 --> 00:19:18.039 the pitch during the baseball games, and I was a kid, 338 00:19:18.920 --> 00:19:20.000 and that was a while ago. 339 00:19:20.079 --> 00:19:22.240 So they've been around for a while. So this is 340 00:19:22.240 --> 00:19:23.640 not going to happen, by the way. 341 00:19:24.640 --> 00:19:26.279 Not to mention it. It's ridiculous. 342 00:19:26.359 --> 00:19:30.440 I know people like to demonize oil and you know, 343 00:19:30.519 --> 00:19:32.839 petrol and all these things, but when you look at 344 00:19:32.839 --> 00:19:37.200 the all the products, not just gas, all the products 345 00:19:37.200 --> 00:19:40.480 that we used, by products and everything, Yeah, it's I mean, 346 00:19:40.559 --> 00:19:44.279 you couldn't do anything. I mean they would all the 347 00:19:44.279 --> 00:19:46.359 products that they're going to advertise are going to have 348 00:19:46.799 --> 00:19:50.160 some tie because of transportation or whatever. 349 00:19:51.359 --> 00:19:55.200 Yeah, I mean Taco Bell, because most Taco Bell fillings 350 00:19:55.240 --> 00:19:58.240 are you know, their meat is petroleum byproducts. 351 00:19:59.519 --> 00:20:03.039 Okay? Is that another? Is that another one? This morning? 352 00:20:03.720 --> 00:20:04.839 I don't know. Okay. 353 00:20:04.960 --> 00:20:09.000 I stopped cow count. I had an abacus and I 354 00:20:09.119 --> 00:20:10.000 ran out beating. 355 00:20:10.079 --> 00:20:11.880 Yeah. So this is not going to happen. 356 00:20:13.279 --> 00:20:16.160 If this starts happening, then it becomes a slippery slope, 357 00:20:16.720 --> 00:20:18.759 slippery oil already. 358 00:20:19.240 --> 00:20:23.359 Okay, Yeah, that's no ignoring, you know, all right, excellent. 359 00:20:23.880 --> 00:20:26.680 The board UH for the Los Angeles Department of Water 360 00:20:26.720 --> 00:20:30.880 and Power postponed a decision yesterday on a seven hundred 361 00:20:31.039 --> 00:20:35.440 thousand dollars private security contract for the department's general manager. 362 00:20:36.000 --> 00:20:40.119 Of course, the utility says that d w P CEO 363 00:20:40.799 --> 00:20:43.400 and chief engineer is it Genie c. 364 00:20:44.839 --> 00:20:46.559 Yeah, it's probably sounds like. 365 00:20:49.039 --> 00:20:54.640 She received numerous threats of UH criticism and departments response 366 00:20:54.720 --> 00:21:00.440 to the Palisades fire. This popos postponement rather UH decision 367 00:21:00.920 --> 00:21:04.400 may have been influenced by LA Mayor Karen Bass. 368 00:21:04.640 --> 00:21:04.839 Hey. 369 00:21:04.839 --> 00:21:06.920 I have a question, how many death threats. Does it 370 00:21:06.960 --> 00:21:10.559 take where's the line? Is it three death threats? Is 371 00:21:10.599 --> 00:21:13.640 it five death threats before you get this kind of security. 372 00:21:14.640 --> 00:21:16.279 You've had death threats before, haven't you? 373 00:21:16.400 --> 00:21:19.960 Damn right? And we have security, yeah, we have.
