00:00:55.640 --> 00:00:56.679
<v Speaker 7>Here's Amy King.

13
00:00:58.799 --> 00:00:59.320
<v Speaker 4>This is.

14
00:01:01.240 --> 00:01:03.039
<v Speaker 5>It is five o'clock, straight up.

15
00:01:03.119 --> 00:01:06.760
<v Speaker 4>This is your wake up call for Tuesday, January twenty First,

16
00:01:07.319 --> 00:01:10.439
<v Speaker 4>I'm Amy King. We're live everywhere on the iHeartRadio app,

17
00:01:10.519 --> 00:01:12.640
<v Speaker 4>and happy that you're starting your day with us. I

18
00:01:12.640 --> 00:01:16.280
<v Speaker 4>don't know about you, but I'm about inaugurationed out after

19
00:01:16.400 --> 00:01:20.280
<v Speaker 4>everything that started early in the morning and then went

20
00:01:20.319 --> 00:01:24.599
<v Speaker 4>through the day with NonStop coverage. I'm also Trump talked

21
00:01:24.680 --> 00:01:30.439
<v Speaker 4>out because he does love to ramble on and and

22
00:01:30.799 --> 00:01:33.159
<v Speaker 4>I think he spoke at every one of the places

23
00:01:33.159 --> 00:01:35.319
<v Speaker 4>that he made stops at yesterday.

24
00:01:36.319 --> 00:01:37.040
<v Speaker 5>But anyway, it.

25
00:01:37.439 --> 00:01:39.560
<v Speaker 4>Was an interesting day and a fun day. And you

26
00:01:39.560 --> 00:01:43.680
<v Speaker 4>know what, it's our government. I love it. I love

27
00:01:43.680 --> 00:01:46.599
<v Speaker 4>the pomp and circumstance. I think it's fun to watch

28
00:01:46.640 --> 00:01:50.400
<v Speaker 4>the transfer of power and see people be excited. And

29
00:01:51.400 --> 00:01:55.280
<v Speaker 4>I found this quote about how things different are so

30
00:01:55.439 --> 00:01:58.319
<v Speaker 4>different now than they used to be. But here's a quote.

31
00:01:59.319 --> 00:02:03.640
<v Speaker 4>We are not enemies but friends. We must not be enemies.

32
00:02:04.159 --> 00:02:07.280
<v Speaker 4>Though passion may have strained, it must not break our

33
00:02:07.319 --> 00:02:11.719
<v Speaker 4>bonds of affection. The mystic cords of memory, stretching from

34
00:02:11.759 --> 00:02:15.240
<v Speaker 4>every battlefield and patriot grave, to every living heart and

35
00:02:15.360 --> 00:02:19.319
<v Speaker 4>hearthstone all over this broad land, will yet swell the

36
00:02:19.439 --> 00:02:22.719
<v Speaker 4>chorus of the Union, when again touched, as surely they

37
00:02:22.759 --> 00:02:25.719
<v Speaker 4>will be by the better angels of our nature.

38
00:02:26.919 --> 00:02:28.800
<v Speaker 5>Who said that?

39
00:02:28.800 --> 00:02:32.520
<v Speaker 4>That was Abraham Lincoln in his first inaugural address in

40
00:02:32.560 --> 00:02:36.840
<v Speaker 4>eighteen sixty one. They just don't talk like that anymore.

41
00:02:37.439 --> 00:02:41.599
<v Speaker 4>It was so eloquent. It was so eloquent. Anyway, here's

42
00:02:41.599 --> 00:02:44.400
<v Speaker 4>what's ahead. On wake up call, and we got a lot.

43
00:02:44.919 --> 00:02:47.159
<v Speaker 4>La Mayor bas says everyone needs to be on high

44
00:02:47.159 --> 00:02:50.319
<v Speaker 4>alert because of the Santa Ana winds blowing through southern California.

45
00:02:50.680 --> 00:02:55.159
<v Speaker 4>The National Weather Service has issued its particularly Dangerous Situation

46
00:02:55.319 --> 00:02:58.840
<v Speaker 4>Wind warning through this morning for parts of Eli Inventura Counties.

47
00:02:59.159 --> 00:03:01.840
<v Speaker 4>Winds in the mountains foothills could gust up to one

48
00:03:01.919 --> 00:03:05.159
<v Speaker 4>hundred miles per hour. Mayorbet's city and county fire personnel

49
00:03:05.240 --> 00:03:08.520
<v Speaker 4>are pre deployed to strike fast if a wildfire breaks out.

50
00:03:08.879 --> 00:03:12.400
<v Speaker 4>LA County says all residents of Altadena can now return

51
00:03:12.479 --> 00:03:15.280
<v Speaker 4>to their neighborhoods. The county posted on x that some

52
00:03:15.439 --> 00:03:19.120
<v Speaker 4>areas are still under evacuation orders with soft closures. That

53
00:03:19.199 --> 00:03:21.479
<v Speaker 4>means they will only be open to residents with valid

54
00:03:21.520 --> 00:03:25.759
<v Speaker 4>proof of residents. President Trump has pardoned about fifteen hundred

55
00:03:25.800 --> 00:03:29.159
<v Speaker 4>people convicted in the January sixth riots at the Oval

56
00:03:29.199 --> 00:03:33.919
<v Speaker 4>office yesterday called the defendants hostages. He commuted six sentences

57
00:03:33.960 --> 00:03:36.800
<v Speaker 4>and said those cases will be further investigated. The order

58
00:03:36.840 --> 00:03:39.759
<v Speaker 4>directs the Department of Prisons to start releasing January sixth

59
00:03:39.800 --> 00:03:43.400
<v Speaker 4>defendants immediately. President Trump had a very busy first day

60
00:03:43.400 --> 00:03:44.879
<v Speaker 4>in office. We're going to find out more about the

61
00:03:44.919 --> 00:03:48.479
<v Speaker 4>dozens and dozens of executive orders he signed with kfi's

62
00:03:48.520 --> 00:03:51.439
<v Speaker 4>White House correspondent John Decker. That's coming up in about

63
00:03:51.439 --> 00:03:53.800
<v Speaker 4>three minutes, just after five point thirty. We're going to

64
00:03:53.840 --> 00:03:58.400
<v Speaker 4>be talking with Brady. Brady literally watched his home in

65
00:03:58.599 --> 00:04:01.159
<v Speaker 4>Altadena burn to the ground as he drove out of

66
00:04:01.199 --> 00:04:03.280
<v Speaker 4>the neighborhood and we got to catch up with him

67
00:04:03.800 --> 00:04:06.879
<v Speaker 4>at Dream Center, LA and he's getting help from them

68
00:04:06.960 --> 00:04:10.159
<v Speaker 4>right now. And so it's a it's an amazing story

69
00:04:10.240 --> 00:04:12.400
<v Speaker 4>and we're excited to bring it to you. That's at

70
00:04:12.439 --> 00:04:16.639
<v Speaker 4>five thirty. At five point fifty, Planet Fitnesses business is booming,

71
00:04:17.639 --> 00:04:19.959
<v Speaker 4>But is it really because so many of us are

72
00:04:20.040 --> 00:04:22.920
<v Speaker 4>hitting the gym or something else. We'll find out with

73
00:04:23.000 --> 00:04:26.000
<v Speaker 4>Joel Larsgart. Joel Larsgard the House, a host of how

74
00:04:26.000 --> 00:04:28.519
<v Speaker 4>to Money here on KFI again, that's at five fifty.

75
00:04:28.600 --> 00:04:30.399
<v Speaker 4>Let's get started with some of the stories coming out

76
00:04:30.399 --> 00:04:32.920
<v Speaker 4>of the KFI twenty four hour newsroom. Of course, the

77
00:04:33.000 --> 00:04:36.279
<v Speaker 4>winds are our top story. A red flag warning remains

78
00:04:36.319 --> 00:04:40.240
<v Speaker 4>in effect through tonight as strong gusty Santana wins our

79
00:04:40.279 --> 00:04:44.439
<v Speaker 4>forecast to continue all day. National Weather Service meteorologist Rich

80
00:04:44.519 --> 00:04:48.560
<v Speaker 4>Thompson says there will also be very relatively low humidity

81
00:04:48.639 --> 00:04:53.000
<v Speaker 4>through Thursday, meaning critical fire weather conditions will last until then.

82
00:04:53.160 --> 00:04:56.279
<v Speaker 8>Fortunately, by the weekend we should to see a distinct

83
00:04:56.360 --> 00:04:58.000
<v Speaker 8>change in the weather and there actually is going to

84
00:04:58.000 --> 00:05:00.360
<v Speaker 8>be a chance of some polight precipitation across the fire

85
00:05:00.920 --> 00:05:02.040
<v Speaker 8>on Saturday and sandy.

86
00:05:02.480 --> 00:05:04.920
<v Speaker 4>He says we should expect the breezy and very dry

87
00:05:04.959 --> 00:05:08.079
<v Speaker 4>conditions to stay with us all week. A brush fire

88
00:05:08.120 --> 00:05:10.560
<v Speaker 4>along the banks of the dry Santa Ana River bottom

89
00:05:10.639 --> 00:05:13.040
<v Speaker 4>amidst stiff Santa Ana Wins, has been quickly put out

90
00:05:13.040 --> 00:05:16.120
<v Speaker 4>by cruise. The fire started shortly after two yesterday afternoon

91
00:05:16.120 --> 00:05:18.879
<v Speaker 4>near Mission Avenue or Mission Inn Avenue.

92
00:05:19.279 --> 00:05:19.759
<v Speaker 5>Riverside.

93
00:05:19.759 --> 00:05:21.800
<v Speaker 4>Fire says Wins were gusting about twenty five miles per

94
00:05:21.879 --> 00:05:24.040
<v Speaker 4>hour at the time, but firefighters were able to surround

95
00:05:24.040 --> 00:05:27.879
<v Speaker 4>it within about twenty minutes. President Trump says he'll help

96
00:05:27.920 --> 00:05:29.839
<v Speaker 4>with the wildfires in La County.

97
00:05:29.920 --> 00:05:32.720
<v Speaker 6>After he was sworn in, Trump criticized the federal government's

98
00:05:32.720 --> 00:05:36.680
<v Speaker 6>response to natural disasters, from flooding in North Carolina to hurricanes.

99
00:05:37.000 --> 00:05:39.759
<v Speaker 6>He also says the response in southern California has also

100
00:05:39.920 --> 00:05:40.839
<v Speaker 6>not been sufficient.

101
00:05:40.959 --> 00:05:42.240
<v Speaker 8>We can't let this happen.

102
00:05:42.959 --> 00:05:47.600
<v Speaker 7>Everyone is unable to do anything about it. That's going

103
00:05:47.680 --> 00:05:48.279
<v Speaker 7>to change.

104
00:05:48.319 --> 00:05:50.639
<v Speaker 6>Trump says he plans to visit La County this week

105
00:05:50.680 --> 00:05:53.079
<v Speaker 6>and says some of the attendees at his inauguration had

106
00:05:53.120 --> 00:05:54.759
<v Speaker 6>lost homes in the Palisades fire.

107
00:05:55.040 --> 00:05:57.040
<v Speaker 5>Michael Monks KFI News.

108
00:05:57.160 --> 00:06:00.199
<v Speaker 4>Well, let's say good morning now too, kfi's White House

109
00:06:00.240 --> 00:06:04.079
<v Speaker 4>correspondent John Decker. John, when we talked yesterday, I said,

110
00:06:04.120 --> 00:06:06.560
<v Speaker 4>bub buckle up, it's going to be a wild ride.

111
00:06:06.720 --> 00:06:08.800
<v Speaker 4>And the new president did not disappoint.

112
00:06:10.199 --> 00:06:10.279
<v Speaker 9>No.

113
00:06:10.600 --> 00:06:12.920
<v Speaker 3>He hit the ground running in terms of signing a

114
00:06:13.120 --> 00:06:18.000
<v Speaker 3>slew of executive orders, not only at the event that

115
00:06:18.040 --> 00:06:20.519
<v Speaker 3>he had at the Capitol One Arena, but also when

116
00:06:20.519 --> 00:06:24.279
<v Speaker 3>he returned to the White House signed more executive orders

117
00:06:24.879 --> 00:06:27.839
<v Speaker 3>in the Oval Office. And I expect more of that

118
00:06:27.879 --> 00:06:31.040
<v Speaker 3>to happen today, his first full day as president.

119
00:06:31.680 --> 00:06:33.439
<v Speaker 5>Is he going to spend most of his day at

120
00:06:33.480 --> 00:06:34.120
<v Speaker 5>the White House.

121
00:06:35.720 --> 00:06:39.639
<v Speaker 3>I would anticipate that, with one exception, He's doing a

122
00:06:39.800 --> 00:06:43.439
<v Speaker 3>service at the National Cathedral. The First Lady will attend

123
00:06:43.439 --> 00:06:47.319
<v Speaker 3>that this morning. Aside from that, all all this his

124
00:06:47.480 --> 00:06:49.920
<v Speaker 3>other activities will be at the White House.

125
00:06:50.680 --> 00:06:53.519
<v Speaker 4>He's got to be exhausted. I mean, he started yesterday

126
00:06:54.079 --> 00:06:56.800
<v Speaker 4>at the Blairhouse, right. He stayed there, then went to church,

127
00:06:56.959 --> 00:06:59.800
<v Speaker 4>then went to another and then one had tea with

128
00:07:00.639 --> 00:07:03.079
<v Speaker 4>President Biden, and I mean, and then he was at

129
00:07:03.120 --> 00:07:05.399
<v Speaker 4>the balls. When I went to sleep last night, they

130
00:07:05.439 --> 00:07:07.680
<v Speaker 4>were still at the balls. And that was like eleven

131
00:07:07.680 --> 00:07:08.560
<v Speaker 4>o'clock their time.

132
00:07:09.639 --> 00:07:12.160
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, he got back to the White House around twelve

133
00:07:12.360 --> 00:07:16.120
<v Speaker 3>thirty in the morning, and so you know, he typically

134
00:07:16.240 --> 00:07:19.560
<v Speaker 3>is a late starter. That was the case in his

135
00:07:19.600 --> 00:07:24.120
<v Speaker 3>first term as president. That being said, it is his

136
00:07:24.199 --> 00:07:28.439
<v Speaker 3>first day. I think he's allowed the time to recover after,

137
00:07:28.480 --> 00:07:32.199
<v Speaker 3>as you point out, amy a very long day yesterday.

138
00:07:32.839 --> 00:07:36.839
<v Speaker 3>That is typical for a new president. It is a

139
00:07:36.839 --> 00:07:39.920
<v Speaker 3>long day for them. But you know, look, Donald Trump

140
00:07:40.000 --> 00:07:43.439
<v Speaker 3>has proven before that he's a pretty energetic president, even

141
00:07:43.480 --> 00:07:44.079
<v Speaker 3>for his age.

142
00:07:44.199 --> 00:07:47.360
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, okay, so he signed all these executive orders, and

143
00:07:48.319 --> 00:07:51.399
<v Speaker 4>let's talk about a couple of them, Like obviously the

144
00:07:51.439 --> 00:07:54.120
<v Speaker 4>one where he pardoned everybody from January sixth is one

145
00:07:54.120 --> 00:07:54.839
<v Speaker 4>of the big ones.

146
00:07:56.399 --> 00:07:59.279
<v Speaker 3>Well, that's a huge one, but it should not surprise anybody.

147
00:07:59.399 --> 00:08:03.000
<v Speaker 3>He spoke about that while campaigning for president, so you

148
00:08:03.160 --> 00:08:06.399
<v Speaker 3>knew that if you were a voter going in, that's

149
00:08:06.439 --> 00:08:09.000
<v Speaker 3>what Donald Trump intended to do. He followed through with

150
00:08:09.040 --> 00:08:11.360
<v Speaker 3>that just the same way. I know we're not talking

151
00:08:11.360 --> 00:08:14.000
<v Speaker 3>about this today, but one of the last acts of

152
00:08:14.319 --> 00:08:18.279
<v Speaker 3>Joe Biden was pardoning five members of his own family.

153
00:08:18.480 --> 00:08:21.639
<v Speaker 3>That did not surprise me either. You know, I think

154
00:08:21.680 --> 00:08:25.040
<v Speaker 3>that he signaled by not answering that question that he

155
00:08:25.160 --> 00:08:28.959
<v Speaker 3>was going to do that. So some pardons that taking

156
00:08:29.000 --> 00:08:33.519
<v Speaker 3>place yesterday by both the outgoing president and the new president.

157
00:08:34.200 --> 00:08:39.080
<v Speaker 4>Okay, and of the ones that you heard of, because

158
00:08:39.080 --> 00:08:41.399
<v Speaker 4>there were so many of them. I mean, I don't

159
00:08:41.440 --> 00:08:44.440
<v Speaker 4>have the complete list of all the executive orders, but

160
00:08:44.840 --> 00:08:48.039
<v Speaker 4>being a lawyer, are there ones immediately that are thrown

161
00:08:48.120 --> 00:08:50.120
<v Speaker 4>up red flags? Are you're going to yep, that one's

162
00:08:50.120 --> 00:08:51.840
<v Speaker 4>going to be challenged, that one's going to be challenged?

163
00:08:53.120 --> 00:08:56.080
<v Speaker 3>Well, you never know. I'm sure there will be challenges

164
00:08:56.120 --> 00:08:59.759
<v Speaker 3>as it relates to some of his executive orders concerning

165
00:09:00.080 --> 00:09:04.799
<v Speaker 3>border security and immigration. But as you know, he declared

166
00:09:05.440 --> 00:09:09.399
<v Speaker 3>national emergency at our southern border. That is something that

167
00:09:09.440 --> 00:09:13.120
<v Speaker 3>he also indicated that he would do, and the Supreme

168
00:09:13.159 --> 00:09:17.399
<v Speaker 3>Court has already upheld a challenge as it relates to

169
00:09:17.559 --> 00:09:22.879
<v Speaker 3>moving money from one account to another within the Pentagon

170
00:09:23.000 --> 00:09:25.559
<v Speaker 3>to construct that border wall. And he may do that

171
00:09:25.799 --> 00:09:28.840
<v Speaker 3>just once again, to construct more of that border wall

172
00:09:29.200 --> 00:09:33.039
<v Speaker 3>at our border with Mexico through the use of that

173
00:09:33.200 --> 00:09:34.679
<v Speaker 3>particular executive order.

174
00:09:34.799 --> 00:09:38.120
<v Speaker 4>Okay, if we had the time, we'd ask you about

175
00:09:38.159 --> 00:09:41.159
<v Speaker 4>like twenty other ones, including birthright citizenship. We'll save that

176
00:09:41.200 --> 00:09:41.799
<v Speaker 4>for another day.

177
00:09:42.080 --> 00:09:45.039
<v Speaker 3>One. Yeah, that one will have to wait. But you're

178
00:09:45.120 --> 00:09:48.720
<v Speaker 3>right that one in particular, will find a challenge, and

179
00:09:49.240 --> 00:09:51.679
<v Speaker 3>speaking as a lawyer, Amy, that one's going to be

180
00:09:51.759 --> 00:09:56.440
<v Speaker 3>problematic in the sense that that is enshrine in the Constitution,

181
00:09:56.679 --> 00:10:01.159
<v Speaker 3>and an executive order cannot do away with a institutional amendment.

182
00:10:01.480 --> 00:10:04.559
<v Speaker 4>Okay, well again, it's going to be a wild ride,

183
00:10:04.679 --> 00:10:05.919
<v Speaker 4>John Decker, thank you so much.

184
00:10:05.919 --> 00:10:07.039
<v Speaker 5>Appreciate your information.

185
00:10:07.279 --> 00:10:07.799
<v Speaker 3>Thanks Amy.

186
00:10:07.840 --> 00:10:08.600
<v Speaker 5>All right, take care.

187
00:10:09.320 --> 00:10:10.759
<v Speaker 4>Let's get back to some of the stories coming out

188
00:10:10.799 --> 00:10:12.960
<v Speaker 4>of the KFI twenty four hour newsroom. The Senate has

189
00:10:13.080 --> 00:10:17.080
<v Speaker 4>confirmed Florida Congressman Marco Rubio as Secretary of State. He

190
00:10:17.120 --> 00:10:19.840
<v Speaker 4>told lawmakers during his confirmation hearings last week that he's

191
00:10:19.879 --> 00:10:22.399
<v Speaker 4>ready to implement Trump's America First agenda.

192
00:10:22.519 --> 00:10:24.840
<v Speaker 10>How can America promote the cause of peace on earth

193
00:10:25.600 --> 00:10:28.799
<v Speaker 10>if it is not first safe at home? What good

194
00:10:28.840 --> 00:10:31.720
<v Speaker 10>is America to our allies if it is not strong?

195
00:10:32.720 --> 00:10:34.960
<v Speaker 10>And how can America help end the suffering of God's

196
00:10:35.039 --> 00:10:38.679
<v Speaker 10>children across the world if it is not first prosperous

197
00:10:39.080 --> 00:10:39.679
<v Speaker 10>here at home.

198
00:10:39.879 --> 00:10:44.120
<v Speaker 4>Rubio was confirmed yesterday with a ninety nine to nothing vote.

199
00:10:44.279 --> 00:10:46.200
<v Speaker 4>He said to speak this morning at the State Department.

200
00:10:46.600 --> 00:10:49.039
<v Speaker 4>The Senate has passed a bill that would require federal

201
00:10:49.080 --> 00:10:52.879
<v Speaker 4>authorities to detain immigrants accused of theft and violent crimes.

202
00:10:53.320 --> 00:10:55.639
<v Speaker 4>The Lake in Riley Act is named after a nursing

203
00:10:55.639 --> 00:10:59.000
<v Speaker 4>student in Georgia who was murdered by a man from Venezuela.

204
00:10:59.240 --> 00:11:01.480
<v Speaker 4>Trump spoke about that case during his campaign. The bill

205
00:11:01.519 --> 00:11:04.000
<v Speaker 4>gives more weight to his plans to deport millions of

206
00:11:04.039 --> 00:11:06.720
<v Speaker 4>people in the country illegally. Now heads back to the

207
00:11:06.759 --> 00:11:11.360
<v Speaker 4>Republican controlled House. Health officials say neurovirus cases are rising

208
00:11:11.399 --> 00:11:14.799
<v Speaker 4>in California and reaching levels not seen in over.

209
00:11:14.639 --> 00:11:16.000
<v Speaker 5>A decade Across the US.

210
00:11:16.080 --> 00:11:20.240
<v Speaker 4>The CDC says there were no specific treatments or vaccines,

211
00:11:20.639 --> 00:11:23.000
<v Speaker 4>but a new one may be on the horizon. Work

212
00:11:23.039 --> 00:11:27.320
<v Speaker 4>care preventative doctor Don Bucklin says Moderna is testing a

213
00:11:27.360 --> 00:11:32.120
<v Speaker 4>potential neurovirus vaccine like the COVID vaccine.

214
00:11:32.240 --> 00:11:36.759
<v Speaker 11>The intent of it is to give you either total

215
00:11:36.799 --> 00:11:40.840
<v Speaker 11>immunity or have such a minor case of it that

216
00:11:40.919 --> 00:11:42.279
<v Speaker 11>you barely notice.

217
00:11:42.559 --> 00:11:45.200
<v Speaker 4>That would be nice, because that the old stomach flu

218
00:11:45.440 --> 00:11:48.919
<v Speaker 4>is not fun, he says. Neurovirus causes two hundred thousand

219
00:11:49.039 --> 00:11:52.159
<v Speaker 4>deaths worldwide every year, including about eight hundred here in

220
00:11:52.159 --> 00:11:55.279
<v Speaker 4>the US. The FBI says it has a man in

221
00:11:55.320 --> 00:11:57.720
<v Speaker 4>custody and connection with the killing of a Customs and

222
00:11:57.759 --> 00:12:01.080
<v Speaker 4>Border Patrol agent in Vermont. The agent was shot and

223
00:12:01.159 --> 00:12:04.080
<v Speaker 4>killed yesterday near Newport, COmON.

224
00:12:04.399 --> 00:12:08.240
<v Speaker 5>Newboard three two Intertate ninety one another one sixty for

225
00:12:08.360 --> 00:12:10.360
<v Speaker 5>their ports of the mail owners bondor is operating.

226
00:12:10.639 --> 00:12:13.320
<v Speaker 4>The FBI says another person also thought to have been involved,

227
00:12:13.480 --> 00:12:15.679
<v Speaker 4>was killed. The shooting happened about twenty miles from the

228
00:12:15.720 --> 00:12:19.080
<v Speaker 4>Canadian border. Members of the Teamsters union have voted to

229
00:12:19.159 --> 00:12:21.480
<v Speaker 4>authorize a strike against Costco.

230
00:12:21.240 --> 00:12:23.360
<v Speaker 5>More than eighty five percent of the workers or in

231
00:12:23.480 --> 00:12:26.639
<v Speaker 5>favor of hitting the picket lines that issue wages and benefits.

232
00:12:27.759 --> 00:12:31.759
<v Speaker 4>ABC's Michelle Fransen says workers could walk out on February

233
00:12:31.879 --> 00:12:34.879
<v Speaker 4>first unless they reach a deal before the current contract

234
00:12:34.919 --> 00:12:39.840
<v Speaker 4>expires January thirty first. There are disagreements on wages and benefits,

235
00:12:39.879 --> 00:12:42.879
<v Speaker 4>and the union says Costco has rejected proposals on things

236
00:12:42.960 --> 00:12:47.279
<v Speaker 4>like seniority pay, paid family leave, sick time, and safeguards

237
00:12:47.279 --> 00:12:51.840
<v Speaker 4>against surveillance. Carmel by the Sea has been recognized as

238
00:12:51.919 --> 00:12:54.759
<v Speaker 4>one of the most delightful small towns in the country

239
00:12:54.840 --> 00:12:58.960
<v Speaker 4>by HGTV. In twenty twenty four, Triple A named the

240
00:12:59.080 --> 00:13:03.039
<v Speaker 4>town known for its fairy tail cottages, upscale shops, art galleries,

241
00:13:03.120 --> 00:13:06.639
<v Speaker 4>and the historic Carmel Mission. Basilica as one of the

242
00:13:06.679 --> 00:13:10.559
<v Speaker 4>best Sunset Magazine referred to it as a charming seaside

243
00:13:10.639 --> 00:13:14.519
<v Speaker 4>hamlet with the surrounding ocean and forests. Okay, I want

244
00:13:14.559 --> 00:13:16.840
<v Speaker 4>to go to Carmel by the seeow. I haven't been

245
00:13:16.879 --> 00:13:22.000
<v Speaker 4>there for years and years. Fire crews are standing by

246
00:13:22.840 --> 00:13:25.720
<v Speaker 4>in case any new fires breakout as strong winds continue

247
00:13:25.720 --> 00:13:29.960
<v Speaker 4>to blow through southern California. A particularly dangerous situation warning

248
00:13:30.000 --> 00:13:32.679
<v Speaker 4>for parts of Elli in Ventura Counties continues through ten

249
00:13:32.759 --> 00:13:35.799
<v Speaker 4>this morning, with a red flag warning until two pm,

250
00:13:35.840 --> 00:13:37.679
<v Speaker 4>and then there's a fire weather watch that'll be in

251
00:13:37.720 --> 00:13:41.240
<v Speaker 4>effect from tonight untill tomorrow. Fire officials have lifted in

252
00:13:41.320 --> 00:13:44.639
<v Speaker 4>evacuation order for a neighborhood in the Tapanga area east

253
00:13:44.679 --> 00:13:47.759
<v Speaker 4>of Tapanga Canyon Boulevard, in the area of Koleima Drive

254
00:13:47.879 --> 00:13:50.919
<v Speaker 4>and south of Encina Road. The area was reopened to

255
00:13:51.000 --> 00:13:54.799
<v Speaker 4>residents only starting at noon yesterday. A protest rally against

256
00:13:54.879 --> 00:13:58.320
<v Speaker 4>President Trump has been held outside La City Hall. Demonstrators

257
00:13:58.320 --> 00:14:01.879
<v Speaker 4>say they are against mass deportations, which have already been

258
00:14:01.960 --> 00:14:04.960
<v Speaker 4>authorized through an executive order. The rally was organized by

259
00:14:05.000 --> 00:14:08.960
<v Speaker 4>several groups, including the International League of People's Struggles. At

260
00:14:09.000 --> 00:14:11.840
<v Speaker 4>six so five, it's handle on the news. Republican lawmakers

261
00:14:11.879 --> 00:14:15.480
<v Speaker 4>want answers after President Biden pardoned basically his whole family

262
00:14:16.080 --> 00:14:20.519
<v Speaker 4>before Trump was sworn in as president. It's let's say

263
00:14:20.559 --> 00:14:24.759
<v Speaker 4>good morning to ABC's Jim Ryan. Jim, President Trump signed

264
00:14:25.360 --> 00:14:29.320
<v Speaker 4>several executive orders relating to the border, and he's anxious

265
00:14:29.360 --> 00:14:29.919
<v Speaker 4>to get going.

266
00:14:30.519 --> 00:14:34.240
<v Speaker 5>So how are people getting going knowing that this is coming.

267
00:14:34.960 --> 00:14:38.440
<v Speaker 9>Well, they're not going, that's the thing. So a lot

268
00:14:38.480 --> 00:14:40.960
<v Speaker 9>of folks who had set up appointments through the CVP

269
00:14:41.159 --> 00:14:43.720
<v Speaker 9>one app, which is this app that was set up

270
00:14:43.799 --> 00:14:48.879
<v Speaker 9>and made available during the Biden administration. So basically what happened.

271
00:14:48.879 --> 00:14:52.679
<v Speaker 9>Somebody coming, for example, from Honduras, makes their way up

272
00:14:52.720 --> 00:14:55.759
<v Speaker 9>to Mexico and with their phone app, they get onto

273
00:14:55.840 --> 00:14:59.159
<v Speaker 9>this with a CBP one app, they can make an

274
00:14:59.159 --> 00:15:01.799
<v Speaker 9>appointment with a customs agent on this side and begin

275
00:15:01.919 --> 00:15:05.559
<v Speaker 9>the immigration process, the interview, then they're given parole status,

276
00:15:05.639 --> 00:15:08.200
<v Speaker 9>they come back and they continue. Well that app has

277
00:15:08.240 --> 00:15:11.240
<v Speaker 9>gone dead today, so that's kind of the first step

278
00:15:11.279 --> 00:15:14.399
<v Speaker 9>in this whole thing. So yeah, physical barriers are planned

279
00:15:14.840 --> 00:15:19.600
<v Speaker 9>along the border, but this one practical barrier, the technological

280
00:15:19.639 --> 00:15:23.600
<v Speaker 9>barrier has been pulled down by the new administration so

281
00:15:23.720 --> 00:15:26.399
<v Speaker 9>that people can't even start the process of coming into

282
00:15:26.440 --> 00:15:26.799
<v Speaker 9>the country.

283
00:15:27.559 --> 00:15:27.720
<v Speaker 8>Right.

284
00:15:27.919 --> 00:15:31.120
<v Speaker 4>But was anybody surprised about that, because I mean, he's

285
00:15:31.159 --> 00:15:34.399
<v Speaker 4>been saying I'm doing this on day one. So I mean,

286
00:15:34.480 --> 00:15:37.919
<v Speaker 4>are there immigrant rights groups that are trying to help

287
00:15:38.240 --> 00:15:41.480
<v Speaker 4>these people kind of navigate or are they just saying, you, guys,

288
00:15:41.519 --> 00:15:42.080
<v Speaker 4>you're out of luck.

289
00:15:42.120 --> 00:15:43.759
<v Speaker 5>Now this is a whole new game now.

290
00:15:44.480 --> 00:15:48.320
<v Speaker 9>Well, yeah, people have cut off guard absolutely. The CBP

291
00:15:48.440 --> 00:15:51.480
<v Speaker 9>one app gave appointments to fourteen hundred and fifty people

292
00:15:51.679 --> 00:15:55.039
<v Speaker 9>every day at eight border crossings, so they come in

293
00:15:55.200 --> 00:15:59.399
<v Speaker 9>on parole status through this online lottery system. And yeah,

294
00:15:59.480 --> 00:16:02.559
<v Speaker 9>people are putting up that app at this second in

295
00:16:02.759 --> 00:16:05.399
<v Speaker 9>Mexico saying Okay, I've got an appointment today with Customs,

296
00:16:05.480 --> 00:16:08.159
<v Speaker 9>I can start this process. They're finding that that appointment

297
00:16:08.240 --> 00:16:12.480
<v Speaker 9>has been canceled and the app has gone debt. So yeah,

298
00:16:12.519 --> 00:16:14.960
<v Speaker 9>they're left in lumbo. The limbo was the word that

299
00:16:15.080 --> 00:16:19.240
<v Speaker 9>won the immigration advocate in El Paso used to describe

300
00:16:19.279 --> 00:16:21.720
<v Speaker 9>what's happening now. And they're trying to figure out how to.

301
00:16:21.799 --> 00:16:25.279
<v Speaker 4>Navigate, okay, and with a CBP one app was that

302
00:16:25.559 --> 00:16:28.440
<v Speaker 4>mainly people coming in and then claiming asylum and then

303
00:16:28.840 --> 00:16:32.480
<v Speaker 4>making appointments. Yes, and so they come in, claim asylum,

304
00:16:32.639 --> 00:16:35.519
<v Speaker 4>be released into the US, and then come back for

305
00:16:35.639 --> 00:16:36.960
<v Speaker 4>their appointment.

306
00:16:36.840 --> 00:16:40.559
<v Speaker 9>Right on parole status. So you know, don't break any laws,

307
00:16:40.600 --> 00:16:42.200
<v Speaker 9>don't do anything, and make sure you come back for

308
00:16:42.240 --> 00:16:44.720
<v Speaker 9>your next appointment or you will be kicked out of

309
00:16:44.759 --> 00:16:46.399
<v Speaker 9>the country. And that has happened a lot.

310
00:16:47.200 --> 00:16:52.000
<v Speaker 4>And now the President has declared a national emergency. So

311
00:16:52.159 --> 00:16:54.679
<v Speaker 4>does that just I mean, are they going to lock

312
00:16:54.799 --> 00:16:55.559
<v Speaker 4>down the border?

313
00:16:57.360 --> 00:16:58.879
<v Speaker 5>Well, we know, yeah, in so far.

314
00:16:59.200 --> 00:17:02.080
<v Speaker 9>I mean, how does that That's what you know, policymakers

315
00:17:02.240 --> 00:17:04.200
<v Speaker 9>locking it down has been what they've been trying to

316
00:17:04.319 --> 00:17:06.680
<v Speaker 9>do for decades, and people still find a way to

317
00:17:06.799 --> 00:17:10.400
<v Speaker 9>get into the country illegally. And we've already seen what

318
00:17:10.480 --> 00:17:13.240
<v Speaker 9>a deployment of military deployment might look like with the

319
00:17:14.240 --> 00:17:17.960
<v Speaker 9>Operation Loan Star that Governor Greg Abbott has had for

320
00:17:18.039 --> 00:17:21.519
<v Speaker 9>the last couple of years. Amy only ten billion dollars spent.

321
00:17:21.640 --> 00:17:24.599
<v Speaker 9>And part of that is this deployment of Texas National

322
00:17:24.640 --> 00:17:28.240
<v Speaker 9>Guard troops along the border. They know do the Concertina

323
00:17:28.319 --> 00:17:32.480
<v Speaker 9>wire and they patrolled the river and you know, under

324
00:17:32.559 --> 00:17:35.039
<v Speaker 9>their directive though. If somebody's coming across and they're in

325
00:17:35.839 --> 00:17:38.440
<v Speaker 9>physical peril, are about to drown, they have to go

326
00:17:38.519 --> 00:17:40.240
<v Speaker 9>in and save them and pull them out and bring

327
00:17:40.319 --> 00:17:42.400
<v Speaker 9>them to this side and then start the deportation process.

328
00:17:42.559 --> 00:17:45.799
<v Speaker 9>So we know at least a little about what that

329
00:17:45.920 --> 00:17:46.519
<v Speaker 9>would look like.

330
00:17:47.119 --> 00:17:49.000
<v Speaker 4>Okay, And then we also heard that there was going

331
00:17:49.079 --> 00:17:53.200
<v Speaker 4>to be mass deportation raids like starting in Chicago as

332
00:17:53.279 --> 00:17:56.359
<v Speaker 4>soon as today. But now the borders are Tom Holman

333
00:17:56.400 --> 00:17:58.759
<v Speaker 4>has said, you know what, that's on hold because the

334
00:17:58.960 --> 00:18:02.000
<v Speaker 4>information leaked then and it kind of killed the element

335
00:18:02.200 --> 00:18:02.799
<v Speaker 4>of surprise.

336
00:18:03.359 --> 00:18:03.640
<v Speaker 11>It did.

337
00:18:03.960 --> 00:18:06.960
<v Speaker 9>And I'm not sure anybody was specific about where the

338
00:18:07.079 --> 00:18:10.000
<v Speaker 9>Chicago's a big place, so you know, you could raid

339
00:18:10.119 --> 00:18:13.680
<v Speaker 9>one factory or one warehouse or one apartment complex, and

340
00:18:15.200 --> 00:18:18.240
<v Speaker 9>so yeah, maybe they're waiting to see exactly how they

341
00:18:18.319 --> 00:18:21.599
<v Speaker 9>should look as opposed to how President Trump said it

342
00:18:21.640 --> 00:18:22.079
<v Speaker 9>would look.

343
00:18:22.400 --> 00:18:24.759
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, And it's interesting when you start thinking about when

344
00:18:24.759 --> 00:18:27.240
<v Speaker 4>you drill down and start really thinking about how this

345
00:18:27.319 --> 00:18:29.680
<v Speaker 4>could possibly be carried out. Like you said, in the

346
00:18:29.759 --> 00:18:34.240
<v Speaker 4>practicality of raiding a warehouse, well, that's where people are working,

347
00:18:34.680 --> 00:18:36.160
<v Speaker 4>so you're going to round them up and then shut

348
00:18:36.200 --> 00:18:38.920
<v Speaker 4>down the warehouse because there's no workers there. Yes, I mean,

349
00:18:39.000 --> 00:18:42.000
<v Speaker 4>so it's really it's going to be a sticky wicket.

350
00:18:42.559 --> 00:18:44.839
<v Speaker 9>Well, you can see the potential ripple effect.

351
00:18:44.880 --> 00:18:45.200
<v Speaker 4>You're right.

352
00:18:45.400 --> 00:18:47.680
<v Speaker 9>So let's say that you go into a factory that

353
00:18:47.759 --> 00:18:53.079
<v Speaker 9>assembles parts for you know, automobiles or for washing machines,

354
00:18:53.519 --> 00:18:55.920
<v Speaker 9>so you shut it down. Those parts aren't making it

355
00:18:56.000 --> 00:18:59.279
<v Speaker 9>to the washing machine assembly facility, whether they have undocumented

356
00:18:59.319 --> 00:19:02.160
<v Speaker 9>workers there or not. The washing machine doesn't get sold,

357
00:19:02.319 --> 00:19:05.079
<v Speaker 9>doesn't get delivered, nobody can buy it, and it's sitting there.

358
00:19:05.759 --> 00:19:08.440
<v Speaker 9>You know, there are potential implications that we'll see over

359
00:19:08.480 --> 00:19:09.160
<v Speaker 9>the next few months.

360
00:19:09.240 --> 00:19:12.759
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, which seems really counterintuitive because Trump is such a

361
00:19:13.200 --> 00:19:17.759
<v Speaker 4>pro you know, business guy, so to see like that,

362
00:19:17.880 --> 00:19:20.440
<v Speaker 4>it would you know, like jam up the cogs of

363
00:19:20.480 --> 00:19:23.640
<v Speaker 4>business is kind of counterintuitive to what he would normally

364
00:19:23.680 --> 00:19:24.599
<v Speaker 4>think would be a good thing.

365
00:19:24.960 --> 00:19:27.559
<v Speaker 9>Well, even here in Texas, you know, which broadly supported

366
00:19:27.599 --> 00:19:31.920
<v Speaker 9>President Trump and supports Governor Greg Abbott, business leaders, especially

367
00:19:32.000 --> 00:19:35.000
<v Speaker 9>on the border are saying, you know what, if you

368
00:19:35.119 --> 00:19:37.000
<v Speaker 9>shut down the border, if you keep people from coming

369
00:19:37.039 --> 00:19:39.880
<v Speaker 9>in and working legally, we're gonna have a hard time

370
00:19:40.000 --> 00:19:41.200
<v Speaker 9>running businesses down here.

371
00:19:42.000 --> 00:19:44.079
<v Speaker 4>Well we'll be watching, Jim Ryan, thank you so much

372
00:19:44.079 --> 00:19:46.240
<v Speaker 4>for the information. All right, all right, talk to you soon.

373
00:19:46.359 --> 00:19:46.720
<v Speaker 8>See me.

374
00:19:46.799 --> 00:19:49.480
<v Speaker 4>As Santa Ana wins continue to blow through southern California,

375
00:19:49.559 --> 00:19:52.279
<v Speaker 4>red flag parking restrictions remain in place in the city

376
00:19:52.279 --> 00:19:55.039
<v Speaker 4>of Los Angeles till further notice. LA Fire says the

377
00:19:55.119 --> 00:19:58.519
<v Speaker 4>restrictions are there to keep streets clear in high fire

378
00:19:58.599 --> 00:20:02.480
<v Speaker 4>danger areas, to allow evacuations, and also to allow firefighters

379
00:20:02.640 --> 00:20:05.440
<v Speaker 4>to get into the area if they're needed. Rick Pope

380
00:20:05.519 --> 00:20:08.359
<v Speaker 4>with the LA Emergency Management Department says the city has

381
00:20:08.400 --> 00:20:12.240
<v Speaker 4>a one stop guide for residents and businesses at lacity

382
00:20:12.519 --> 00:20:13.000
<v Speaker 4>dot gov.

383
00:20:13.240 --> 00:20:14.799
<v Speaker 5>He's encouraging people to use it.

384
00:20:15.039 --> 00:20:19.200
<v Speaker 12>That site will link you to everything from updated evacuation

385
00:20:19.480 --> 00:20:24.039
<v Speaker 12>orders and recovery resources to public health advisories and warnings

386
00:20:24.440 --> 00:20:27.319
<v Speaker 12>that can help you return home safely.

387
00:20:28.039 --> 00:20:30.839
<v Speaker 4>Pope says people can also apply for assistance from FEMA

388
00:20:31.000 --> 00:20:34.400
<v Speaker 4>and other financial aid on the website. Former Vice President

389
00:20:34.480 --> 00:20:36.599
<v Speaker 4>Harris has thanked firefighters in Altadena.

390
00:20:36.880 --> 00:20:40.519
<v Speaker 2>Just hours following President Trump's inauguration, the former Vice President

391
00:20:40.599 --> 00:20:42.880
<v Speaker 2>hopped on a seven forty seven with her husband back

392
00:20:42.920 --> 00:20:45.559
<v Speaker 2>to California to tour the fire zone on Monday night.

393
00:20:45.920 --> 00:20:48.680
<v Speaker 2>Harris took a moment to tell reporters that the firefighters

394
00:20:48.720 --> 00:20:50.680
<v Speaker 2>from California are the best at what they do.

395
00:20:51.079 --> 00:20:54.920
<v Speaker 8>They do this work to protect people they've never met

396
00:20:55.400 --> 00:20:57.319
<v Speaker 8>out of a sense of duty and dare I say

397
00:20:57.400 --> 00:20:59.240
<v Speaker 8>a calling to serve.

398
00:21:00.079 --> 00:21:02.559
<v Speaker 2>Ninety three hundred homes and businesses have been destroyed from

399
00:21:02.599 --> 00:21:05.279
<v Speaker 2>the wildfire burning in Alta, Dina. More than fourteen thousand

400
00:21:05.319 --> 00:21:08.440
<v Speaker 2>acres have also burned. Andrew Caravella Kyfi News.

401
00:21:08.359 --> 00:21:11.160
<v Speaker 4>Harris has a home in Brentwood, which was impacted by

402
00:21:11.200 --> 00:21:15.279
<v Speaker 4>evacuations from the wildfire and Pacific Palisades. Former President Biden

403
00:21:15.599 --> 00:21:18.079
<v Speaker 4>is also in California. Biden and the former First Lady

404

00:21:28.119 --> 00:21:31.039
<v Speaker 4>Santa Yes when he officially dropped out of his re

408
00:21:31.119 --> 00:21:34.519
<v Speaker 4>election campaign and got behind Vice President Harris.

409

<v Speaker 7>I Mister Tambarine Man, Last Song to Me.

410
00:21:39.880 --> 00:21:43.480
<v Speaker 4>The draft lyrics to Bob Dylan's Mister Tambourine Man have

411
00:21:43.599 --> 00:21:47.119
<v Speaker 4>sold at auction four over a half million dollars. It

412
00:21:47.240 --> 00:21:49.519
<v Speaker 4>was one of dozens of items auctioned off over the

413
00:21:49.559 --> 00:21:52.000
<v Speaker 4>weekend in Nashville. Eighty three year old Dylan is a

414
00:21:52.119 --> 00:21:55.160
<v Speaker 4>Nobel Prize winner whose career has returned to the spotlight

415
00:21:55.279 --> 00:22:00.400
<v Speaker 4>with the new Movies darring Timothy Schallome. A complete unknown okay,

416
00:22:00.559 --> 00:22:04.440
<v Speaker 4>observation from yesterday. I said I was inaugurationed out. Maybe

417
00:22:04.480 --> 00:22:09.119
<v Speaker 4>I'm not quite. But during the actual ceremony, we were

418
00:22:09.200 --> 00:22:11.200
<v Speaker 4>following it. We carried it for you live here on KFI.

419
00:22:11.680 --> 00:22:13.720
<v Speaker 4>And you may have noticed it was supposed to happen

420
00:22:13.759 --> 00:22:18.079
<v Speaker 4>at certain times. And from past inaugurations that I've covered,

421
00:22:18.480 --> 00:22:23.279
<v Speaker 4>they have everything like down to the minute. This one

422
00:22:23.400 --> 00:22:26.079
<v Speaker 4>was different. Their timing was all out of whack and

423
00:22:26.359 --> 00:22:30.920
<v Speaker 4>they were probably like fifteen to thirty minutes off. And

424
00:22:31.200 --> 00:22:35.759
<v Speaker 4>so right at high noon in on the East coast,

425
00:22:35.759 --> 00:22:37.319
<v Speaker 4>which is nine o'clock our time, there was like this

426
00:22:37.440 --> 00:22:42.160
<v Speaker 4>scramble to get to get Trump inaugurated, to get him

427
00:22:42.200 --> 00:22:44.880
<v Speaker 4>officially to take the oath of office. So they moved

428
00:22:44.920 --> 00:22:48.400
<v Speaker 4>everything around, and they pushed back the national anthem, they

429
00:22:48.559 --> 00:22:51.680
<v Speaker 4>pushed back Carrie Underwood singing, and got him in like

430
00:22:52.000 --> 00:22:53.559
<v Speaker 4>right around noon, just to make sure we'd have a

431
00:22:53.599 --> 00:22:59.519
<v Speaker 4>president because Biden's job expired at noon. Anyway, speaking of Carrie, Underwood,

432
00:23:00.680 --> 00:23:02.279
<v Speaker 4>a cappella singing.

433
00:23:04.720 --> 00:23:07.119
<v Speaker 5>America. The Beautiful was just like one of the most

434
00:23:07.119 --> 00:23:08.359
<v Speaker 5>spectacular things ever.

435
00:23:08.640 --> 00:23:09.880
<v Speaker 8>Just did she just got it done?

436
00:23:10.039 --> 00:23:13.519
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, they started, they had a glitch with the music.

437
00:23:13.599 --> 00:23:15.119
<v Speaker 4>It kind of started, then it stopped, and then they

438
00:23:15.119 --> 00:23:16.839
<v Speaker 4>stood around and waited for a minute, and then she goes,

439
00:23:17.359 --> 00:23:19.680
<v Speaker 4>you guys, help me out here, and she just started

440
00:23:19.759 --> 00:23:22.640
<v Speaker 4>singing and she has one of those just absolutely pristine voices.

441
00:23:23.319 --> 00:23:25.000
<v Speaker 5>It was it was perfect right, and.

442
00:23:25.079 --> 00:23:28.480
<v Speaker 4>It was it was fun because it was just, you know,

443
00:23:28.640 --> 00:23:30.960
<v Speaker 4>a little bit of something off the script too, even

444
00:23:31.000 --> 00:23:33.680
<v Speaker 4>though everything was kind of off the script because everything

445
00:23:33.720 --> 00:23:34.359
<v Speaker 4>got out of order.

446
00:23:34.440 --> 00:23:36.680
<v Speaker 5>But wow, Carrie Underwood, that was That was amazing.

447
00:23:37.039 --> 00:23:40.400
<v Speaker 4>And one final note, did you notice that the inaugural luncheon,

448
00:23:40.400 --> 00:23:41.960
<v Speaker 4>Because I said, I had it on all day and

449
00:23:42.039 --> 00:23:44.359
<v Speaker 4>I was watching it. So they're out the luncheon and

450
00:23:44.440 --> 00:23:47.519
<v Speaker 4>you know that Trump doesn't drink, and they came out

451
00:23:47.640 --> 00:23:51.480
<v Speaker 4>and pop day diet coke for the president.

452
00:23:51.799 --> 00:23:55.000
<v Speaker 5>He's a big diet Coke fan. So anyway, it was fun.

453
00:23:55.160 --> 00:23:56.039
<v Speaker 8>Coke Zeero's better.

454
00:23:56.839 --> 00:23:57.079
<v Speaker 11>Really.

455
00:23:57.319 --> 00:24:00.440
<v Speaker 5>I did not like Coke zero, Oh, I hate it.

456
00:24:01.960 --> 00:24:04.680
<v Speaker 4>I got to spend the afternoon Saturday at Dream Center,

457
00:24:05.000 --> 00:24:08.480
<v Speaker 4>La doing the Fork Report because our little Neil Sevager

458
00:24:08.599 --> 00:24:12.079
<v Speaker 4>was not feeling well, and luckily he's back and back

459
00:24:12.119 --> 00:24:14.759
<v Speaker 4>with us and feeling better. But while I was out

460
00:24:14.799 --> 00:24:18.079
<v Speaker 4>there watching the amazing work that Dream Center LA is

461
00:24:18.200 --> 00:24:22.319
<v Speaker 4>doing to raise money and donations for all of the

462
00:24:22.359 --> 00:24:25.200
<v Speaker 4>people affected by these wildfires that are going to be

463
00:24:25.480 --> 00:24:28.799
<v Speaker 4>affected not only today and tomorrow, but for months and

464
00:24:29.279 --> 00:24:31.680
<v Speaker 4>years to come, I got to meet a man who

465
00:24:31.880 --> 00:24:35.880
<v Speaker 4>literally lost everything in the fire in Alta Dina. So

466
00:24:36.039 --> 00:24:39.920
<v Speaker 4>let's say good morning to Brady. Thanks, thanks for coming

467
00:24:40.319 --> 00:24:43.480
<v Speaker 4>and talking to us, And I want to talk a

468
00:24:43.519 --> 00:24:46.880
<v Speaker 4>little bit about you and your story because people need

469
00:24:46.960 --> 00:24:50.279
<v Speaker 4>to understand who they're going to be helping when they

470
00:24:50.319 --> 00:24:53.799
<v Speaker 4>make a donation to Dream Center LA. So you were

471
00:24:54.000 --> 00:24:58.880
<v Speaker 4>going about your business last week, yes, and tell us

472
00:24:58.960 --> 00:24:59.559
<v Speaker 4>what happened.

473
00:25:00.799 --> 00:25:04.759
<v Speaker 8>We kind of a warning that we were probably going

474
00:25:04.839 --> 00:25:05.759
<v Speaker 8>to be evacuated.

475
00:25:06.079 --> 00:25:07.640
<v Speaker 5>And what time did this happen?

476
00:25:10.200 --> 00:25:14.119
<v Speaker 8>It was on the seventh round ten pm.

477
00:25:14.119 --> 00:25:16.119
<v Speaker 5>Okay, so Tuesday night about that, Yeah.

478
00:25:17.279 --> 00:25:22.200
<v Speaker 8>We may be evacuated. Then the next morning, roughly around

479
00:25:23.680 --> 00:25:28.440
<v Speaker 8>four point thirty, the alarm went off stating we had

480
00:25:28.519 --> 00:25:34.000
<v Speaker 8>to evacuate because fires were moving in and closer from

481
00:25:34.039 --> 00:25:36.400
<v Speaker 8>the Eaton canyon side.

482
00:25:36.440 --> 00:25:38.359
<v Speaker 5>Okay, and you're up in are you in Altadena?

483
00:25:38.400 --> 00:25:43.920
<v Speaker 8>In Altadena? And at that point my wife and dialer

484
00:25:44.200 --> 00:25:47.279
<v Speaker 8>were going to leave immediately, and I thought, well, maybe

485
00:25:47.319 --> 00:25:49.960
<v Speaker 8>I could stick around and fight the fire, which I did.

486
00:25:51.599 --> 00:25:54.000
<v Speaker 5>And how long did you do that?

487
00:25:54.680 --> 00:25:56.200
<v Speaker 8>For about two and a half hours?

488
00:25:56.759 --> 00:25:59.519
<v Speaker 4>And how did you fight a fire with one hundred

489
00:25:59.559 --> 00:26:01.599
<v Speaker 4>mile an hour winds and fifty foot flames?

490
00:26:02.720 --> 00:26:09.799
<v Speaker 8>Not very well? But I decided to wet the whole

491
00:26:10.240 --> 00:26:14.359
<v Speaker 8>landscape of not only my yard, but my roof, my

492
00:26:14.440 --> 00:26:16.920
<v Speaker 8>neighbor's yard or fence and everything around.

493
00:26:17.039 --> 00:26:19.799
<v Speaker 5>And were you the only one there? Did everybody else?

494
00:26:20.160 --> 00:26:23.519
<v Speaker 8>Everyone got out? My neighbors were gone. Everyone was pretty

495
00:26:23.559 --> 00:26:27.640
<v Speaker 8>much gone at that point. So it seemed my neighbor's

496
00:26:29.240 --> 00:26:33.720
<v Speaker 8>yard to the west seemed to have caught fire first,

497
00:26:34.359 --> 00:26:40.759
<v Speaker 8>and the trees lent were right next to our fence

498
00:26:40.920 --> 00:26:43.240
<v Speaker 8>that caught the fence on fire. And another part of

499
00:26:43.279 --> 00:26:46.440
<v Speaker 8>the house on the north side ended up catching on

500
00:26:46.559 --> 00:26:51.160
<v Speaker 8>fire from a tree on a neighbor's area.

501
00:26:50.960 --> 00:26:53.680
<v Speaker 4>In northwest And how quickly did that all happen once

502
00:26:53.759 --> 00:26:56.799
<v Speaker 4>the fires started, once they caught on the homes.

503
00:26:57.599 --> 00:27:01.400
<v Speaker 8>It was over a two hour period, but it seemed

504
00:27:01.440 --> 00:27:04.920
<v Speaker 8>like twenty minutes. It was so fast, and when did.

505
00:27:04.839 --> 00:27:08.160
<v Speaker 4>You realize you were fighting a losing battle and needed

506
00:27:08.200 --> 00:27:09.359
<v Speaker 4>to get out to save your own life.

507
00:27:10.640 --> 00:27:14.519
<v Speaker 8>The air outside was really bad from the smoke, but

508
00:27:14.640 --> 00:27:18.799
<v Speaker 8>when I went inside for a moment, it was worse

509
00:27:19.160 --> 00:27:21.880
<v Speaker 8>inside the house, yeah, than the outside. And it was

510
00:27:21.960 --> 00:27:26.200
<v Speaker 8>at that point that I decided to get out.

511
00:27:26.559 --> 00:27:26.880
<v Speaker 5>Okay.

512
00:27:27.200 --> 00:27:30.640
<v Speaker 4>And as we mentioned a few minutes ago, Brady shared

513
00:27:31.359 --> 00:27:37.200
<v Speaker 4>some videos literally driving away watching your house burn down. Yes,

514
00:27:37.519 --> 00:27:39.799
<v Speaker 4>how do you even put words to that?

515
00:27:40.880 --> 00:27:44.559
<v Speaker 8>You can't. Unfortunately, there's nothing that can be done, and

516
00:27:46.480 --> 00:27:50.279
<v Speaker 8>I just had to get out otherwise I was going

517
00:27:50.359 --> 00:27:51.440
<v Speaker 8>to probably go down with it.

518
00:27:51.640 --> 00:27:54.960
<v Speaker 4>So yeah, and so you immediately you got out of

519
00:27:55.000 --> 00:27:57.279
<v Speaker 4>the neighborhood and thank god you're okay, and you.

520
00:27:57.400 --> 00:27:59.640
<v Speaker 5>Went to stay with your sister.

521
00:28:01.359 --> 00:28:03.160
<v Speaker 8>We were going to We went to stay with my

522
00:28:03.240 --> 00:28:05.680
<v Speaker 8>mother in law Arizona, just to get out of the

523
00:28:06.440 --> 00:28:06.920
<v Speaker 8>arms away.

524
00:28:07.000 --> 00:28:10.319
<v Speaker 5>Okay. So now you're back, and have you been able

525
00:28:10.400 --> 00:28:11.759
<v Speaker 5>to go see the house yet? No?

526
00:28:12.000 --> 00:28:16.119
<v Speaker 8>I tried, but it looks like the war zone. There's

527
00:28:17.480 --> 00:28:22.599
<v Speaker 8>National Guard and sheriffs and highway patrol and anything you

528
00:28:22.680 --> 00:28:25.359
<v Speaker 8>can imagine, but we're not allowed to go into the

529
00:28:25.400 --> 00:28:28.400
<v Speaker 8>streets of where our home is.

530
00:28:28.640 --> 00:28:31.440
<v Speaker 4>Okay, So then you came to Dream Center La. Yes,

531
00:28:31.640 --> 00:28:33.680
<v Speaker 4>And what do you do when you come to Dream

532
00:28:33.720 --> 00:28:37.720
<v Speaker 4>Center La? Because again, you guys have lost everything?

533
00:28:37.839 --> 00:28:40.960
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, so what's your first step? What happened when you

534
00:28:41.079 --> 00:28:41.359
<v Speaker 5>got here?

535
00:28:41.799 --> 00:28:45.000
<v Speaker 8>Well, I was more than impressed by all of the

536
00:28:47.680 --> 00:28:52.440
<v Speaker 8>things that are available from food, water, clothing, toys for

537
00:28:53.920 --> 00:28:57.480
<v Speaker 8>kids and what have you. I mean, it's really an

538
00:28:57.599 --> 00:29:04.880
<v Speaker 8>impressive operation here. I mentioned. Yeah, I'm not where I

539
00:29:04.960 --> 00:29:08.880
<v Speaker 8>want to be, but someday I will and I'm certain

540
00:29:09.759 --> 00:29:12.000
<v Speaker 8>that I'd love to be able to get back for

541
00:29:12.759 --> 00:29:14.599
<v Speaker 8>what I've been able to receive in just this short

542
00:29:14.640 --> 00:29:15.640
<v Speaker 8>period of time and stuff.

543
00:29:16.119 --> 00:29:19.160
<v Speaker 5>It's pretty it's humbling to see how people have come.

544
00:29:19.079 --> 00:29:24.440
<v Speaker 8>Forward, it really is. I can't wait to be able

545
00:29:24.480 --> 00:29:28.079
<v Speaker 8>to help others like I'm myself and my family have

546
00:29:28.160 --> 00:29:28.559

586
00:31:21.160 --> 00:31:22.960
<v Speaker 4>Let's get back to some of the stories coming out

587
00:31:23.000 --> 00:31:25.319
<v Speaker 4>of the KFI twenty four hour newsroom.

588
00:31:26.039 --> 00:31:27.920
<v Speaker 5>A quick correction on the fire.

589
00:31:27.960 --> 00:31:30.319
<v Speaker 4>There is that brush fire burning in San Diego County

590
00:31:30.359 --> 00:31:33.160
<v Speaker 4>that has grown to about eighty acres and it is

591
00:31:33.279 --> 00:31:36.319
<v Speaker 4>still threatening property, evacuations or in place. Schools in the

592
00:31:36.400 --> 00:31:40.400
<v Speaker 4>area are closed. And then there's another fire burning near Paula,

593
00:31:40.440 --> 00:31:42.599
<v Speaker 4>which is north of the fire in Bonsal. It has

594
00:31:42.680 --> 00:31:45.680
<v Speaker 4>burned seventeen acres for that one. The forward progress has

595
00:31:45.720 --> 00:31:49.640
<v Speaker 4>been stopped for the brush fire the Lilac fire. That

596
00:31:49.759 --> 00:31:54.319
<v Speaker 4>one is still going and growing. Powerful winds continue to

597
00:31:54.319 --> 00:31:57.359
<v Speaker 4>blow through parts of southern California. The most severe warning

598
00:31:57.640 --> 00:32:01.039
<v Speaker 4>is until ten am, with red flag warning until mid afternoon,

599
00:32:01.480 --> 00:32:04.079
<v Speaker 4>and then a fire weather watch through tomorrow. Affected areas

600
00:32:04.119 --> 00:32:07.519
<v Speaker 4>include the San Gabriel, Santa Clarita, and San Fernando valleys

601
00:32:07.559 --> 00:32:10.680
<v Speaker 4>and the Malibu Coast. Governor Newsom has issued an executive

602
00:32:10.759 --> 00:32:14.200
<v Speaker 4>order to speed up debris removal and protect wildfire affected

603
00:32:14.279 --> 00:32:18.400
<v Speaker 4>areas ahead of expected rainfall this weekend. Burn scars across

604
00:32:18.440 --> 00:32:21.160
<v Speaker 4>Alley County raise the risk of mudslides and flooding when

605
00:32:21.200 --> 00:32:24.599
<v Speaker 4>it rains. Newsom says his order will speed up debris removal,

606
00:32:24.880 --> 00:32:29.119
<v Speaker 4>it will strengthen flood defenses and stabilize hillsides. President Trump

607
00:32:29.160 --> 00:32:32.480
<v Speaker 4>has pardoned fifteen hundred people involved in the January sixth

608
00:32:32.599 --> 00:32:36.039
<v Speaker 4>riot at the US Capitol. Six sentences were commuted. The

609
00:32:36.160 --> 00:32:39.640
<v Speaker 4>President said those will be investigated further. The order was immediate,

610
00:32:39.720 --> 00:32:43.680
<v Speaker 4>and Trump said people should be released that could have

611
00:32:43.759 --> 00:32:46.920
<v Speaker 4>started last night. We're just minutes away from handle on

612
00:32:46.960 --> 00:32:50.400
<v Speaker 4>the news this morning, this just might kill Bill Costco

613
00:32:50.519 --> 00:32:54.319
<v Speaker 4>workers may go on strike. Let's say good morning now

614
00:32:54.400 --> 00:32:56.960
<v Speaker 4>to the host of How to Money on KFI, Joel

615
00:32:57.079 --> 00:32:57.680
<v Speaker 4>lars Guard.

616
00:32:58.319 --> 00:33:02.559
<v Speaker 5>Joel. Business is booming at Planet Fitness. But is it

617
00:33:02.720 --> 00:33:04.079
<v Speaker 5>because we're all getting in shape?

618
00:33:05.240 --> 00:33:07.359
<v Speaker 13>That's a really good question, and it's true, Like the

619
00:33:07.519 --> 00:33:10.599
<v Speaker 13>Planet Fitness is growing like a weed. And what do

620
00:33:10.640 --> 00:33:12.640
<v Speaker 13>you think about I mean, we are still right in

621
00:33:12.720 --> 00:33:15.880
<v Speaker 13>the heart of Hey, my New Year's resolution is to

622
00:33:16.039 --> 00:33:18.799
<v Speaker 13>get fit this year, and I got the gym membership,

623
00:33:18.920 --> 00:33:21.519
<v Speaker 13>and I think that's gonna actually push me over the top.

624
00:33:21.599 --> 00:33:23.920
<v Speaker 13>It's actually gonna help me, you know, achieve this goal

625
00:33:23.960 --> 00:33:26.559
<v Speaker 13>that I've set out for myself. But and I think

626
00:33:26.599 --> 00:33:29.440
<v Speaker 13>a lot of people flock to Planet Fitness in particular

627
00:33:29.480 --> 00:33:31.799
<v Speaker 13>because for the longest time, memberships were ten dollars a month.

628
00:33:31.839 --> 00:33:34.200
<v Speaker 13>I think it's fifteen dollars a month. Now when you

629
00:33:34.240 --> 00:33:36.279
<v Speaker 13>think about some of the boutique gyms, you're spending a

630
00:33:36.319 --> 00:33:37.839
<v Speaker 13>heck of a lot more than that ten x that

631
00:33:38.279 --> 00:33:41.480
<v Speaker 13>for some folks to get their workout on every month.

632
00:33:42.039 --> 00:33:45.119
<v Speaker 13>But so Planet Fitness. Because of that low price point,

633
00:33:45.440 --> 00:33:48.200
<v Speaker 13>people sign up. But then, because like you know, you

634
00:33:48.279 --> 00:33:50.039
<v Speaker 13>don't have much skin in the game, a lot of

635
00:33:50.039 --> 00:33:52.200
<v Speaker 13>people actually don't go to workout. So I think I

636
00:33:52.279 --> 00:33:55.920
<v Speaker 13>read that the average membership of a Planet Fitness gym

637
00:33:56.119 --> 00:33:58.480
<v Speaker 13>is seventy two hundred people. If everybody showed up at

638
00:33:58.480 --> 00:33:59.839
<v Speaker 13>the same time, can you imagine what it looked like.

639
00:34:01.920 --> 00:34:05.640
<v Speaker 5>But luckily we all are procrastinators and don't show up.

640
00:34:06.680 --> 00:34:10.880
<v Speaker 13>Luckily, for Planet Fitness. Fitness, they've announced I think they

641
00:34:10.920 --> 00:34:13.320
<v Speaker 13>have like twenty seven hundred locations around the country and

642
00:34:13.360 --> 00:34:14.039
<v Speaker 13>they've announced so.

643
00:34:14.039 --> 00:34:17.480
<v Speaker 5>The opening more locations or yeah, oh okay.

644
00:34:17.599 --> 00:34:20.079
<v Speaker 13>They want to get to five thousand in the next

645
00:34:20.119 --> 00:34:23.800
<v Speaker 13>two years. So think about the Walgreens on every street

646
00:34:23.800 --> 00:34:26.599
<v Speaker 13>corner or whatever. Like, that's what Planet Fitness is going

647
00:34:26.679 --> 00:34:29.840
<v Speaker 13>to be like. And I've got no problems with Planet

648
00:34:29.880 --> 00:34:32.280
<v Speaker 13>Fitness being a company that makes money, has a good

649
00:34:32.320 --> 00:34:35.079
<v Speaker 13>business model, and man, if you are committed to working

650
00:34:35.119 --> 00:34:37.199
<v Speaker 13>out and you like working out at Planet Fitness, you

651
00:34:37.280 --> 00:34:39.800
<v Speaker 13>know that it's a pretty inexpensive price to be able

652
00:34:39.840 --> 00:34:42.559
<v Speaker 13>to hit that gym up and get your workout on.

653
00:34:42.800 --> 00:34:46.320
<v Speaker 13>But I think just what this highlights to me is

654
00:34:46.400 --> 00:34:48.480
<v Speaker 13>that there are a lot of people who have good

655
00:34:48.559 --> 00:34:52.400
<v Speaker 13>intentions and they spend money in hopes of achieving those

656
00:34:52.440 --> 00:34:54.800
<v Speaker 13>good intentions. And I think I just want people to

657
00:34:54.920 --> 00:34:57.119
<v Speaker 13>rethink fifteen bucks a month might not sound like a lot,

658
00:34:57.400 --> 00:34:58.599
<v Speaker 13>but at the end of the day, it's one hundred

659
00:34:58.599 --> 00:34:59.760
<v Speaker 13>and eighty bucks a year, and what could you do

660
00:34:59.800 --> 00:35:02.119
<v Speaker 13>with money? And there are all sorts of things like

661
00:35:02.199 --> 00:35:04.119
<v Speaker 13>that in our lives, where we say, oh, I'm going

662
00:35:04.159 --> 00:35:06.199
<v Speaker 13>to sign up for the streaming service to watch this

663
00:35:06.280 --> 00:35:08.719
<v Speaker 13>one thing, and then we don't cancel. Planet Fitness is

664
00:35:09.000 --> 00:35:11.679
<v Speaker 13>just a symptom. I think of a culture that we

665
00:35:11.800 --> 00:35:14.599
<v Speaker 13>live in where maybe we do sign up for things

666
00:35:14.960 --> 00:35:17.320
<v Speaker 13>and then we forget to cancel. We don't use it

667
00:35:17.440 --> 00:35:19.360
<v Speaker 13>like we thought we were going to. I hope people do,

668
00:35:19.639 --> 00:35:21.719
<v Speaker 13>because you know, it's actually a decent value.

669
00:35:22.039 --> 00:35:25.519
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, yeah, you know, I had a gym membership when

670
00:35:25.519 --> 00:35:28.199
<v Speaker 4>I lived in Colorado and I had it for two

671
00:35:28.360 --> 00:35:30.239
<v Speaker 4>years and went like twice.

672
00:35:31.440 --> 00:35:31.840
<v Speaker 8>And you're not.

673
00:35:32.239 --> 00:35:35.320
<v Speaker 13>That is I think that's like an average American sort

674
00:35:35.360 --> 00:35:38.280
<v Speaker 13>of thing to do. So more power to you if

675
00:35:38.280 --> 00:35:41.960
<v Speaker 13>you're using it and you are fulfilling your New Year's

676
00:35:42.000 --> 00:35:45.320
<v Speaker 13>goal already and you're making progress, you're making headway. But

677
00:35:45.559 --> 00:35:48.280
<v Speaker 13>just know, hey, if it's not working out, it's okay

678
00:35:48.360 --> 00:35:50.880
<v Speaker 13>to cancel. That doesn't mean you've thrown into towel and

679
00:35:51.000 --> 00:35:52.400
<v Speaker 13>then you know, I don't know's start to doing push

680
00:35:52.480 --> 00:35:52.880
<v Speaker 13>ups at home?

681
00:35:53.199 --> 00:35:55.480
<v Speaker 5>Okay, real quick, before we go.

682
00:35:56.000 --> 00:35:59.119
<v Speaker 4>We are talking about the price of everything is or

683
00:35:59.199 --> 00:36:01.360
<v Speaker 4>we've been talking about how the price of everything is

684
00:36:01.400 --> 00:36:03.840
<v Speaker 4>so high. What's a surefire way to save a little

685
00:36:03.880 --> 00:36:05.440
<v Speaker 4>money and still get a good quality product.

686
00:36:06.239 --> 00:36:10.760
<v Speaker 13>I love store brands and store brands are proliferating. And

687
00:36:10.960 --> 00:36:14.559
<v Speaker 13>the store brands that you're like your grandpa's store brands, sorry,

688
00:36:14.639 --> 00:36:16.760
<v Speaker 13>like they've gotten a lot better. Maybe if you haven't

689
00:36:16.800 --> 00:36:19.159
<v Speaker 13>tried store brands in a while, if you're super name

690
00:36:19.239 --> 00:36:22.440
<v Speaker 13>brand loyal, store brands have gotten a whole lot better.

691
00:36:22.519 --> 00:36:25.239
<v Speaker 13>And so one of those examples you just mentioned Costco

692
00:36:25.599 --> 00:36:29.719
<v Speaker 13>Kirkland signature items. Costco typically strives to make those tastes

693
00:36:29.960 --> 00:36:32.280
<v Speaker 13>better than the name brand equivalent, and I think much

694
00:36:32.320 --> 00:36:36.239
<v Speaker 13>of the time they achieve that. Walmart launched this or

695
00:36:36.320 --> 00:36:40.280
<v Speaker 13>earlier last year something called Better Goods, and so great

696
00:36:40.400 --> 00:36:42.920
<v Speaker 13>value is like the hey, I'm looking for the absolute

697
00:36:43.039 --> 00:36:46.800
<v Speaker 13>cheapest price point. That's that store brand for Walmart. But

698
00:36:47.000 --> 00:36:49.119
<v Speaker 13>Better Goods is kind of trying to compete with like

699
00:36:49.320 --> 00:36:52.559
<v Speaker 13>Trader Joe's on most with some of the funky flavors

700
00:36:52.639 --> 00:36:54.920
<v Speaker 13>and kind of fun varieties of stuff they're bringing out.

701
00:36:55.199 --> 00:36:58.079
<v Speaker 13>So if you are looking to save money at the

702
00:36:58.119 --> 00:37:01.360
<v Speaker 13>grocery store, it's amazing how much you can lower your

703
00:37:01.440 --> 00:37:04.519
<v Speaker 13>grocery bill if you offer store brands. And consumer reports

704
00:37:04.840 --> 00:37:07.960
<v Speaker 13>they did this test like thirteen years ago of well,

705
00:37:08.039 --> 00:37:10.320
<v Speaker 13>how good are the store brands versus the name brands?

706
00:37:10.599 --> 00:37:13.119
<v Speaker 13>And most people couldn't tell a difference, or at least

707
00:37:13.159 --> 00:37:16.920
<v Speaker 13>a meaningful enough difference. The store brands were perfectly palatable

708
00:37:17.000 --> 00:37:19.079
<v Speaker 13>for people, So I would say, at least check those

709
00:37:19.079 --> 00:37:21.000
<v Speaker 13>store brands out, and especially if you're going to like

710
00:37:21.039 --> 00:37:23.280
<v Speaker 13>an Aldi. The cool thing is if you don't like it,

711
00:37:23.639 --> 00:37:26.840
<v Speaker 13>they've got a money back guarantee. So it's like, what's

712
00:37:26.920 --> 00:37:29.239
<v Speaker 13>the harm in trying the store brand and then taking

713
00:37:29.360 --> 00:37:32.360
<v Speaker 13>it back if it stinks. But yeah, the truth is,

714
00:37:32.519 --> 00:37:35.760
<v Speaker 13>when we're talking about grocery inflation, store brands could save

715
00:37:35.800 --> 00:37:38.320
<v Speaker 13>you twenty thirty percent or more, twenty.

716
00:37:38.079 --> 00:37:41.880
<v Speaker 4>To thirty percent. Okay, I'm buying more Signature select a

717

<v Speaker 4>money yourself better. That's a weird sentence, but it's actually accurate.

721
00:37:56.559 --> 00:37:59.159
<v Speaker 4>That's at how to money, Joel. Thank you, Joel Larsguard.

722

<v Speaker 5>We'll talk to you next week, all right, Thanks Amy.

723
00:38:01.360 --> 00:38:03.000
<v Speaker 4>Okay, just a couple more stories coming out of the

724
00:38:03.079 --> 00:38:05.199
<v Speaker 4>KFI twenty four hour News before the top of the hour.

725
00:38:05.400 --> 00:38:08.920
<v Speaker 4>Israel and Hamas have confirmed the next hostage release is

726
00:38:08.960 --> 00:38:12.159
<v Speaker 4>going to happen on Saturday. A senior Israeli official confirmed

727
00:38:12.199 --> 00:38:14.920
<v Speaker 4>the deal must take place on January twenty fifth, as

728
00:38:15.000 --> 00:38:18.320
<v Speaker 4>outlined in the ceasefire agreement. Hamas says the second batch

729
00:38:18.360 --> 00:38:21.119
<v Speaker 4>of prisoner exchange will take place on the scheduled date.

730
00:38:21.480 --> 00:38:25.639
<v Speaker 4>Three women held hostage were released on Sunday. Ninety Palestinian

731
00:38:25.719 --> 00:38:29.360
<v Speaker 4>prisoners were released from Israel in the exchange. Two Americans

732
00:38:29.440 --> 00:38:32.519
<v Speaker 4>held by the Taliban in Afghanistan have been freed in

733
00:38:32.599 --> 00:38:36.119
<v Speaker 4>a prisoner swap with the US. ABC's Shannon Kingston says

734
00:38:36.159 --> 00:38:39.239
<v Speaker 4>the Americans were traded for an Afghan shehi hottest and

735
00:38:39.360 --> 00:38:42.239
<v Speaker 4>a drug trafficker serving a life sentence in California.

736
00:38:42.400 --> 00:38:45.039
<v Speaker 7>The family of Ryan Corbett, one of the Americans who

737
00:38:45.079 --> 00:38:48.239
<v Speaker 7>had been detained by the Taliban since twenty twenty two,

738
00:38:48.840 --> 00:38:53.079
<v Speaker 7>thanks both former President Biden and President Trump for brokering

739
00:38:53.199 --> 00:38:54.480
<v Speaker 7>the deal that brought him home.

740
00:38:54.559 --> 00:38:57.880
<v Speaker 4>The trade happened yesterday as Biden handed power over to Trump.

741
00:38:58.159 --> 00:39:01.360
<v Speaker 4>President Trump assigned an executive order to avert a TikTok

742
00:39:01.480 --> 00:39:04.760
<v Speaker 4>ban for now in the Oval office. Trump signed the

743
00:39:04.880 --> 00:39:07.360
<v Speaker 4>order that gives TikTok seventy five days to either sell

744
00:39:07.400 --> 00:39:08.159
<v Speaker 4>it or close it.

745
00:39:08.480 --> 00:39:10.400
<v Speaker 8>I may not do the deal. I may do the deal.

746
00:39:10.480 --> 00:39:17.039
<v Speaker 2>TikTok is worthless, worthless if I don't approve its clothes.

747
00:39:17.280 --> 00:39:18.920
<v Speaker 8>I learned that from the people that own it.

748
00:39:19.519 --> 00:39:21.840
<v Speaker 4>He says the app may be worth a trillion dollars

749
00:39:21.920 --> 00:39:24.079
<v Speaker 4>if he gets a deal done. Trump went on to

750
00:39:24.199 --> 00:39:26.960
<v Speaker 4>add that he feels the US should get half of TikTok.

751
00:39:27.360 --> 00:39:29.480
<v Speaker 4>The app was dark for about sixteen hours from Saturday

752
00:39:29.519 --> 00:39:32.239
<v Speaker 4>evening to Sunday morning when the law banning TikTok went
