Speaker 3: I know and works that so far, and the Rams
Speaker 3: got decreased last night.
Speaker 4: Not good.
Speaker 3: Not good Cono, good morning hey, and Neil, good morning, Neil.
Speaker 2: Did you not get the memo?
Speaker 4: I did. Neil's not there.
Speaker 3: Neil's gone all this week except for Thanksgiving Day when
Speaker 3: he does the morning show and he says he fills
Speaker 3: in for me.
Speaker 4: He doesn't.
Speaker 3: It's the Neil Show on Thanksgiving Day where he takes
Speaker 3: phone calls and he gives you hints and people have
Speaker 3: all kinds of issues cooking on Thanksgiving Day. Neil being
Speaker 3: the foodie of all foodies, who does. Just if you
Speaker 3: ever have the opportunity to go to Neil's house to eat,
Speaker 3: which of course you never will, it is a real
Speaker 3: delight to go there.
Speaker 4: We should give one of those away, you know what.
Speaker 3: Duffer Pastathon, that's the other thing I want to talk
Speaker 3: about his pasta than that is.
Speaker 4: We had a couple events over the weekend.
Speaker 3: Tim had one at the Wendy's in where was it?
Speaker 3: It was in Mission Viejo, And then Tim had one
Speaker 3: on Saturday at the No Friday at this morning Final
Speaker 3: Lake Forest.
Speaker 4: It's amazing how many people showed up.
Speaker 3: It was really terrific, you know. It was nice to
Speaker 3: see everybody and people. I can't tell you my people
Speaker 3: went up to me and said, Bill, I've been listening
Speaker 3: to you to I've been listening to you four and
Speaker 3: then I just shut him up.
Speaker 4: I go, just shut up. I don't want to hear it. Okay,
Speaker 4: just done. It used to be. Oh, I've been listening
Speaker 4: to you for fifteen years. Hey, that's great, thank you
Speaker 4: so much. And then I've been listening to you for
Speaker 4: twenty years. I go, thanks, that's terrific. After that, it's
Speaker 4: shut up. I don't want to hear it. Shut up.
Speaker 4: We've gotten old, both of us.
Speaker 3: You look like crap, and you're probably gonna die by
Speaker 3: this weekend. Okay, I don't want to hear how long
Speaker 3: you've been listening to me. But it was hugely successful,
Speaker 3: and I don't know if they put it on the
Speaker 3: on Instagram, but because I wanted to turbo people coming
Speaker 3: in and buying pasta and sauce at smartan final for pasta,
Speaker 3: fon for helping the kids eat.
Speaker 4: And that's they serve twenty.
Speaker 3: Five thousand meals a week now Catarina's Club, and it's pasta,
Speaker 3: pasta meals and whatever protein they have at the time, whatever, but.
Speaker 4: It's the basis pasta meals.
Speaker 3: So what I did is I literally filled up a
Speaker 3: shopping cart, half of it with sauce and half of
Speaker 3: it with pasta. I mean box after actually they were
Speaker 3: bags after bags of pasta, and I mean it's one
Speaker 3: of those where it was really heavy to carry through.
Speaker 3: And there I am going through the checkout lane. It's
Speaker 3: being videoed, and I'm they wrung up.
Speaker 4: Took a while to ring it up.
Speaker 3: And as we're through, I put my credit card down
Speaker 3: and I also put a donation down. And then as
Speaker 3: soon as I was through, and the clerk person, the
Speaker 3: female clerk person there, thank me so much for helping Pastathon.
Speaker 3: It goes the video off. Yes, go get me the
Speaker 3: manager put all this stuff back on the shelves and
Speaker 3: credit my credit card.
Speaker 4: Okay. Done. The other thing I'm going to point out, Oh.
Speaker 3: And I'm sure that Amy you'll be picking this one up,
Speaker 3: is this will be the last pardoning of the turkeys
Speaker 3: for the Biden administration. He will get to pardon the turkeys.
Speaker 3: I don't know what their names are.
Speaker 4: They're always some weird names.
Speaker 3: Please it's also stupid names Ralph and Ralph and whatever. Anyway,
Speaker 3: so the turkeys are pardoned and then they're sent off
Speaker 3: to some turkey sanctuary someplace next year to prove to
Speaker 3: establish his creds. This is Donald Trump that he is
Speaker 3: a law and order guy. Not only will he not
Speaker 3: pardon the turkeys, he will order they be slaughtered right
Speaker 3: there in front of.
Speaker 2: The kids, the execution of the church.
Speaker 3: That is absolutely correct. We're going into a law and
Speaker 3: order presidency. Frankly, I think that's a much better idea this, uh,
Speaker 3: I mean pardoning turkeys.
Speaker 4: What do you do with the other eighteen billion turkeys?
Speaker 4: Do they have hopes that they're part of those two?
Speaker 3: Do they?
Speaker 4: It's like a lottery God, I hope I win. I
Speaker 4: hope I win. Okay, no turkey this year for me,
Speaker 4: by the way, really no.
Speaker 3: Daughter is doing duck She is making a couple of
Speaker 3: dead ducks and then she is going to roast the potatoes.
Speaker 4: In duck fat.
Speaker 2: It's going to be delicious.
Speaker 4: Yeah, my daughter is. She's a serious foodie. She's a
Speaker 4: serious foody. I'm gonna go.
Speaker 3: I have to I have to bring some pumpkin pie.
Speaker 3: And I don't want to go to Costco because you know,
Speaker 3: those pumpkin pies are a yard wide trying to go
Speaker 3: you know a store bought pumpkin pies?
Speaker 4: Are they any good? You know, like a rauphs or Pavilion's.
Speaker 2: Uh. I mean it's hard to go bad, to mess
Speaker 2: up a pumpkin pie.
Speaker 4: I've had bad tasting pumpkin pies.
Speaker 2: Well, Marie Calendars or something.
Speaker 3: You can't get you you have to order the pies
Speaker 3: and advance of Marie Calendars, and there's a line of
Speaker 3: block and a half long.
Speaker 4: You can't do just walk in.
Speaker 3: There are no walk in and Thanksgiving or on Thanksgiving
Speaker 3: it Marie calendars, there are none. Do I have time
Speaker 3: to order one up in Marie And it's not worth
Speaker 3: the line, for God's sake, that's not worth it. I'm
Speaker 3: just trying to think which market has the best one.
Speaker 4: I don't know. And then ice cream, and then an
Speaker 4: apple pie. I think I'm gonna.
Speaker 3: Get you ever have cheese cheddar cheese on apple pie?
Speaker 2: I've never done that.
Speaker 5: It is spectacular, But I love cheese and apples.
Speaker 3: You you try an apple pie, a warm apple pie
Speaker 3: with them, you know, a slice of cheddar cheese which
Speaker 3: you can get at Costco, the big honkin double pack
Speaker 3: of cheddar cheese, and it is just spectacular.
Speaker 4: It really is, all right, so Amy, it's just the
Speaker 4: two of us this morning. Oh it real Quickly.
Speaker 3: Pasta Fon is now officially kicked off, and of course
Speaker 3: we ask you for your donations of pasta and sauce
Speaker 3: to be delivered to I think any smart and final
Speaker 3: you could drop them off at Wendy's. Also, I think
Speaker 3: are accepting. I believe they're accepting pasta and sauce. Don't know,
Speaker 3: Go to pasta go to KFI six forty dot com,
Speaker 3: kfi a M six forty dot com slash pasta pon.
Speaker 3: It'll give you all the information and they'll tell you
Speaker 3: where to donate and how here. You can donate on
Speaker 3: the site real money like I did. And then on
Speaker 3: December three, we are broadcasting live like we do every
Speaker 3: single year.
Speaker 4: It's Giving Tuesday.
Speaker 3: Okay, didn't even know that existed, but Giving Tuesday, because
Speaker 3: I don't connect with that sort of stuff. Giving Tuesday,
Speaker 3: We're gonna be broadcasting all day long, starting at five
Speaker 3: am wake up call with Amy and ending with Moe
Speaker 3: at ten pm.
Speaker 4: So it's the entire day.
Speaker 3: Part and come on by off pasta and sauce your donations. Also,
Speaker 3: if you come in during the course of this show,
Speaker 3: maybe Amy's depends on when they deliver the bagels.
Speaker 4: There will be real jew bagels. That's my contract says that.
Speaker 3: As a matter of fact, we're trying to hunt down
Speaker 3: the big poster board of the bagelidendum, which is an
Speaker 3: actual part of my contract. It is real and we're
Speaker 3: gonna we should have that up there, which means real
Speaker 3: jew bagels will be served with the shmear, with cream, cheese,
Speaker 3: and pastries and coffee and I think juice also. But
Speaker 3: that's during the morning show from six to nine nine o'clock.
Speaker 4: It cuts off.
Speaker 3: You make a move for a pastry that's left at
Speaker 3: nine oh one, boom, you get hit. Okay, get your
Speaker 3: hands off this thing. So it's between I don't know.
Speaker 3: I think they set up beforehand Amy, Okay, I hope.
Speaker 3: So I think I'll make sure they do okay well,
Speaker 3: because not that I have any influence, but I'll try
Speaker 3: at least coffee if not, because bagels have to be
Speaker 3: delivered and they don't have to be whatever. All right,
Speaker 3: all right, we spent the first segment just on all
Speaker 3: the business. But since it's only Amy and mineself, we'll
Speaker 3: go right into handle on the news.
Speaker 4: Lead story fire.
Speaker 3: We may have a ceasefire here between Israel and Hezbollah
Speaker 3: source unnamed but close to the Shenanigans say that the
Speaker 3: ceasefire is very close, and I would think that Hezbolah
Speaker 3: would in fact come to the table with a ceasefire.
Speaker 3: They don't have any skin in this game with Kamas
Speaker 3: and Israel. They have nothing to do with this and
Speaker 3: the only reason they launched those attacks on Israel is
Speaker 3: quote solidarity, to show solidarity with Palestinians. Well, bay Root
Speaker 3: is starting to blow up, and you've already have three
Speaker 3: thousand people killed in South Lebanon.
Speaker 4: Actually even bay Root and Israel is just started.
Speaker 3: And so maybe someone on Thesmala side is saying, you
Speaker 3: know what, maybe it's not worth it. Look what Israel
Speaker 3: did in Gaza. Gaza, they have a claim because that's
Speaker 3: a territory, and not that I well, I believe in
Speaker 3: a two state solution, but at least the folks in
Speaker 3: Gaza have a legitimate claim because no, they don't. No,
Speaker 3: they want to get rid of Israel and they want
Speaker 3: to matter of fact, they believe in a one party
Speaker 3: state or one state solution, as does Israel, and each
Speaker 3: country believes the other one shouldn't exist, So that becomes problematic,
Speaker 3: all right, let's keep on going.
Speaker 2: Amy, Well, they're brasen for battles.
Speaker 5: Lawmakers on Capitol Hill are getting ready to fight it
Speaker 5: out over President elect Trump's picks for his cabinet. Some
Speaker 5: of the controversial selections, of course, include Peteth for Secretary
Speaker 5: of Defense, also Tulsa Gabbard his pick for the director
Speaker 5: of National Intelligence.
Speaker 3: Yeah, that those are problems now, a lot of his picks,
Speaker 3: Trump's picks you may not agree with, and a lot
Speaker 3: of people severely disagree. But you know, like the billionaire
Speaker 3: ahead of the Treasury, I mean, the guy has been
Speaker 3: in finance his entire life, and so.
Speaker 4: At least you know he's going to get through.
Speaker 3: Hegsyth has no qualifications zero to be.
Speaker 4: The Secretary of Defense. Tulci Gabbard.
Speaker 3: National security or national intelligence has outright said Putin's a
Speaker 3: good guy, has outright derided the quote.
Speaker 4: The intelligence community as being part of the deep state.
Speaker 3: And now she's going to be a head of all
Speaker 3: that not believing that they tell the truth and that
Speaker 3: Putin is not and Putin is the good guy.
Speaker 4: She may have some problems.
Speaker 3: And what's going to happen is this is going to
Speaker 3: be a test, a real test and I think I
Speaker 3: think President elect Trump is doing.
Speaker 4: This just to.
Speaker 3: Ask a show of loyalty. Let me see your hands,
Speaker 3: Republican senators who who will back me up no matter what,
Speaker 3: even if I put forth a totally unqualified person.
Speaker 4: And we'll see what. We'll see what Republicans do.
Speaker 3: I know, we know there's a fair number of Republican
Speaker 3: senators that would say yes to anybody, anybody. If Charles
Speaker 3: Manson were nominated by the President for some you know,
Speaker 3: some security.
Speaker 4: Post, they would say yes. Now we'll see.
Speaker 3: Are you're giving me the look? Amy, I'm not exaggerating,
Speaker 3: by the way. Okay, maybe I'm exaggerating. Okay, maybe not
Speaker 3: Charles Manson. You know why Charles Manson wouldn't make it
Speaker 3: because he's dead, so I otherwise he'd be in I
Speaker 3: take that back, but it's very interesting. I do believe
Speaker 3: this is a test of loyalty.
Speaker 5: I believe that, Okay, the Menendez brothers could be tasting
Speaker 5: a little freedom soon or could they guess we'll find out.
Speaker 5: Eric and Lyle Menendez are going to be in court
Speaker 5: virtually today. They're still going to be in San Diego,
Speaker 5: but they'll virtually be in a Vani's courtroom, where Mark
Speaker 5: Garrigos will argue that they should be re sentenced under
Speaker 5: a voluntary manslaughter instead of the murder convictions that they're
Speaker 5: now serving life without parole, and if they are, if
Speaker 5: they do get re sentenced on that lesser charge, it
Speaker 5: would be fifty years to life, which would make them
Speaker 5: eligible for parole right now.
Speaker 3: Which they would get out instantly for a couple of reasons.
Speaker 3: First of all, they've both been model prisoners. Second of all,
Speaker 3: we look at molestation of boys in a very different
Speaker 3: way today than we did back then. The premise one
Speaker 3: of the prosecutors, for example, had originally said, when I
Speaker 3: think it was Lyle had argued that his father molested him,
Speaker 3: constantly said there's no such thing as male rape.
Speaker 4: It doesn't exist. And so the.
Speaker 3: Second trial, the first trial ended up in a hung jury.
Speaker 3: The second trial, none of that evidence of molestation was
Speaker 3: allowed in by the judge. Very different world today. I
Speaker 3: think they're getting out. And by the way, does anybody
Speaker 3: not believe that the men in his dad was a
Speaker 3: bad guy?
Speaker 2: What do you know why they didn't let that evidence in?
Speaker 3: Secondly, why yes, because you had a trial that went
Speaker 3: on for months and months.
Speaker 4: Is after all of that effort, it's.
Speaker 3: A hung jury. Hung juries judges do not like. They
Speaker 3: don't help the judges reputation. It's months and months of
Speaker 3: work that a judge does. Politically, it looks stupid as hell.
Speaker 3: And so the second time around, same judge made sure
Speaker 3: that it went much much quicker, that all of that
Speaker 3: evidence previously introduced was not going to be able to
Speaker 3: be introduced. The judge said, nope, none of that. It's
Speaker 3: just did you do it? Did you not do it?
Speaker 3: A little bit of testimony saying we did it in
Speaker 3: self defense because of molestation, but there was no corroborating evidence,
Speaker 3: which there was plenty of during the first trial, and
Speaker 3: so it was a virtual guarantee that the conviction was
Speaker 3: going to go forward. That's why it happened the way
Speaker 3: it did. I think they're going free.
Speaker 4: I really do. I don't have any doubts about that.
Speaker 5: Three hundred countries say, let's make a deal. Huddling in Azerbaijan,
Speaker 5: countries from around the world have reached an agreement on
Speaker 5: how rich countries can cough off the money to support
Speaker 5: poor countries who are most vulnerable to climate change. So
Speaker 5: it's The deal's not a perfect agreement, and a lot
Speaker 5: of people are not happy about it, but say some
Speaker 5: are saying they are hopeful the deal will be a
Speaker 5: step in the right direction. So the gist of it
Speaker 5: is US and other European countries will pump a lot
Speaker 5: of money, at least three hundred billion dollars a year
Speaker 5: by twenty thirty five into fighting climate change.
Speaker 3: And that's by helping the third world countries meet targets
Speaker 3: of energy without fossil fuels, anything they can do.
Speaker 4: To help climate change. Although I have a question.
Speaker 3: I mean, let's say Soudan, right South Sudan a country.
Speaker 3: How you know what kind of emissions do you get
Speaker 3: with power created by hamster wheels.
Speaker 4: It's just not a lot, all right, Let's move on.
Speaker 5: The NBA is telling its players to fortify their fortresses.
Speaker 5: So the NBA on Friday sent out a memo urging
Speaker 5: players to upgrade home security systems and consider getting guard
Speaker 5: dogs because of a rash of burglaries targeting professional athletes.
Speaker 5: Mike Conley of the Timberwolves Bobby Portois of the Bucks
Speaker 5: have both had their homes burg risd, along with Chiefs
Speaker 5: Stars Travis Kelce, Kelsey and Patrick Mahomes all had their
Speaker 5: homes broken into while they were away playing their sports.
Speaker 3: Yeah, and I'm assuming these homes. Have you seen those
Speaker 3: pictures of those homes.
Speaker 4: I mean, you know, these guys are fairly wealthy.
Speaker 3: As you can see, they all have alarm systems. Now
Speaker 3: they're saying that a lot of the alarm systems weren't activated.
Speaker 3: But these thieves are so sophisticated. They also have equipment
Speaker 3: that jams the internet and jams the signals from a
Speaker 3: large's alarm systems. And this is pretty sophisticated stuff.
Speaker 2: Yeah, they're saying it's organized gang.
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, and you would think and these guys have
Speaker 3: Super Bowl rings and they have a lot of bling
Speaker 3: that they keep around and a lot of really expensive stuff,
Speaker 3: you know, very high end purses that they give their wives.
Speaker 3: I mean in the thousands of dollars that are hanging around,
Speaker 3: you know, and you know you got a coach purse
Speaker 3: for four thousand dollars, I mean who puts those in safes?
Speaker 4: So they're really good targets, really good targets.
Speaker 3: So you're going to see a lot more sophisticated and
Speaker 3: I think you can rent dogs that eat people can't
Speaker 3: you aren't there services that provide dog rentals, security dog rentals?
Speaker 3: I think they do, except now your toddler make it
Speaker 3: eaten by mistake.
Speaker 4: But I'm assuming they have a way out of that.
Speaker 5: Speaking of targets, a rabbi in Dubai may have been
Speaker 5: targeted by terrorists. The Israeli rabbi in the United Arab
Speaker 5: Emirates had been missing since Thursday. He's now been found dead.
Speaker 5: Israeli officials say the rabbi by Coogan, had been murdered
Speaker 5: and called his death and act of terrorism. Senior officials
Speaker 5: and Murati authorities are saying that Emirates is a safe place,
Speaker 5: but didn't mention the rabbi.
Speaker 4: Yeah, I have a question.
Speaker 3: And first of all, Kabad Lubavic movement is there is
Speaker 3: a Kabbad center any city in the world. I mean,
Speaker 3: I don't care where you go, there's a Kabbad center,
Speaker 3: But of all the places you would you would think
Speaker 3: you wouldn't want to go, as any kind of a
Speaker 3: rabbi would be in the United Arab Emirates or any
Speaker 3: Muslim country where ninety nine point nine to nine percent
Speaker 3: of the citizens or Muslim by the way, that's not
Speaker 3: to say that the Emirates aren't safe. I mean, this
Speaker 3: is not a country that backs up terrorism. They are
Speaker 3: a very good ally of the United States. But at
Speaker 3: the same time, that's I think you're taking your life
Speaker 3: in your hands.
Speaker 4: Clearly that's the case here.
Speaker 5: Well, someone's been buzzing by trying to get a closer look.
Speaker 5: Drones have been spotted flying over three bases used by
Speaker 5: the United States Air Force. The three bases are in Britain.
Speaker 5: They apparently were spotted between Wednesday and Saturday, flying over
Speaker 5: the Royal Air Forces Lakenheath, Mildenhall and Eltwell bases, which
Speaker 5: are all used by the US Air Force.
Speaker 2: That's nice.
Speaker 5: Yeah, it reminds me of a balloon flying over the
Speaker 5: United States.
Speaker 4: Yes, remember that good thing to see here. Yep. Eight prices.
Speaker 2: This is no yoke. Egg prices are going up again.
Speaker 4: Yeah, do that again.
Speaker 2: This is no yoke.
Speaker 4: No, I was doing that because it didn't work.
Speaker 5: Spike and avion flu and the holiday season are combining
Speaker 5: to make the problem of egg prices even worse. Thanksgiving
Speaker 5: dinner overall is about the same as it was last year,
Speaker 5: except for eggs. Eggs have spiked thirty percent just in
Speaker 5: October from the year before.
Speaker 4: Yeah, nothing more to say. Okay, this is a good one.
Speaker 5: From congressman to attorney general nominee to cameo after announcing
Speaker 5: he would not return to Congress, Matt Gates appears to
Speaker 5: be trying out a new career option, creating personalized videos
Speaker 5: on Cameo. He joined the platform Friday, a day after
Speaker 5: withdrawing his name for him from consideration to serve as
Speaker 5: President elect Trump's Attorney general, of course, because of the
Speaker 5: sexual misconduct allegations.
Speaker 2: He said his nomination was a distraction.
Speaker 3: Well, yeah, it was on top of you've got some
Speaker 3: big issues now, as you pointed out congressman, and he
Speaker 3: resigned that seat as soon as he nominated. But I
Speaker 3: think he has some big issues. And anyway, as to
Speaker 3: the allegations of sexual misconduct, then the nominee, which fell
Speaker 3: apart instantly, and I was wondering, where do you.
Speaker 4: Go from here? This guy doesn't have a job, and
Speaker 4: I'm assuming.
Speaker 3: He's going to get a pretty good position in the
Speaker 3: Trump administration that does not need confirmation, that's my guess.
Speaker 3: But you can pay him five hundred and fifty dollars
Speaker 3: for a video. Hi, Hey, George, happy Birthday. I just
Speaker 3: want to let you know what a great you are.
Speaker 3: It's I almost want to spend five hundred and fifty
Speaker 3: dollars to have him do a cameo.
Speaker 4: You answering my phone? Hi, this is Matt Gates. You
Speaker 4: know what Bill is?
Speaker 3: We answering him? Matt Gates here and I'm answering the
Speaker 3: phone for Bill. He's not available right now. And then
Speaker 3: go into a whole diet tribe. Not worth for it
Speaker 3: five hundred and fifty dollars.
Speaker 4: Not quite, But you.
Speaker 3: Know that's a step down. Do you know where I
Speaker 3: started my broadcast career, just real quickly. My first job,
Speaker 3: I was a box boys what they called him an
Speaker 3: Alpha Beta, which is a local supermarket, and I would
Speaker 3: announce that the roast chickens were on sale the last
Speaker 3: half hour the store was opened, and I'd get on
Speaker 3: the intercom and go attention to Alpha Betas Choppers, roast
Speaker 3: chickens are now available at half price. That was the
Speaker 3: beginning of my career. When I retire, I'm going to
Speaker 3: go back to that. See full circle.
Speaker 5: The lesson is don't mess with the boss's messaging. Russia
Speaker 5: has removed a your commander from his post for making
Speaker 5: what it says are false claims about the progress of
Speaker 5: the war in parts of eastern Ukraine. The colonel general
Speaker 5: was dismissed after providing misleading information about Russia's progress near
Speaker 5: the Severt settlement in the eastern region of Dunnetsk.
Speaker 2: Yes, that's according to bloggers. But apparently progress has been
Speaker 2: slower than they had hoped. And maybe he blogged about that.
Speaker 4: Russia Ukraine, What Ukraine. That's basically it. That didn't work,
Speaker 4: by the way, I tried. All right, let's continue.
Speaker 2: Hundreds have a whale of a tail to tell.
Speaker 4: Oh Amy, you're out of control.
Speaker 5: I know more than thirty pilot whales that stranded themselves
Speaker 5: on a beach in New Zealand have safely been returned
Speaker 5: to the ocean after a couple hundred conservation workers and
Speaker 5: residents used sheets to gently lift the whales up and
Speaker 5: then put them back in the water. And four of
Speaker 5: them died, but a number of them, a couple dozen
Speaker 5: of them made it, and they're they're back and swimming again.
Speaker 4: These are pilot whales.
Speaker 3: These aren't the big sperm whales or the gray whales
Speaker 3: that weigh forty tons. You've seen those black whales. Those
Speaker 3: are the pilot whales, kind of fun and they have
Speaker 3: that smile.
Speaker 4: No, those are the Belugas. Let's see twelve.
Speaker 5: This guy's been busted for dealing a drug that's far
Speaker 5: worse than fentanyl.
Speaker 2: Can you imagine?
Speaker 4: Yeah, I've never heard of it, have you?
Speaker 5: No, it's a but it's called protona. Let's see, I
Speaker 5: said it earlier, Protona tazine. It's supposed to be three
Speaker 5: times more powerful than fentanyl. It has caused a deadly overdose,
Speaker 5: and the guy from Santa Clarita, twenty one years old,
Speaker 5: has been charged with distributing the drug that resulted in
Speaker 5: what the Department of Justice says could be the nation's
Speaker 5: first death resulting criminal case involving this particular narcotic Yeah.
Speaker 3: I think as Hawkland, our New DA says this should
Speaker 3: be murder, and that's absolutely true.
Speaker 2: Yeah, the guy was apparently trying to get percocet.
Speaker 4: Yeah, that's lovely.
Speaker 2: You know how.
Speaker 5: Trump loves to say you're fired. Well, Senator Eric Schmidt
Speaker 5: from Missouri, obviously a Republican, suggested that one of President
Speaker 5: elect Trump's first orders of business when he gets into
Speaker 5: office should be to fire any staff at the Justice
Speaker 5: Department who worked on cases involving charges against Trump. He said,
Speaker 5: anybody part of this, this effort to keep President Trump
