Speaker 1: with me Amy King on demand on the iHeartRadio.
Speaker 2: App KFI and KOST HD two Los Angeles, Orange County.
Speaker 3: It's time for your morning wake up call.

Speaker 1: wake up call for Monday, June ninth. I'm Amy King.
Speaker 1: Thanks for starting your day with us. WHOA what a weekend?
Speaker 1: Huh protests all weekend long and the residuals continued overnight.
Speaker 1: We're gonna bring you the latest. We're gonna have all
Speaker 1: the updates, let you know what happened, what's about to happen.
Speaker 1: We're checking in with the ABC's Alex Stone, who's been
Speaker 1: covering the protests all weekend. Of course, we had our
Speaker 1: Michael Monks on it even got tear gas that was nice.
Speaker 1: I'm being facetious, but it seems like things have calmed
Speaker 1: down a bit over overnight, although there were still protesters
Speaker 1: out overnight. But like I said, we're going to keep
Speaker 1: you updated with that. We're going to bring you all
Speaker 1: up to date, see what happened while you were sleeping.
Speaker 1: And then we're also going to because the world continues
Speaker 1: to turn. We're going to also cover the other things
Speaker 1: that have been happening around the world and right here
Speaker 1: in LA during this time. So here's what's ahead on
Speaker 1: wake up Call. Plumes of black smoke have risen into
Speaker 1: the skies over downtown La as ICE immigration protests turned
Speaker 1: violent yesterday, prompting police to declare a tactical alert and
Speaker 1: an unlawful assembly call for all of downtown. The one
Speaker 1: oh one remained closed in We're going to get the
Speaker 1: latest on that from Will Coleschreibers. At the north it's
Speaker 1: the southbound lanes right.
Speaker 4: Actually, it looks like everything's open.
Speaker 1: They got it open finally. Okay, that's good. That's good
Speaker 1: because that was a mess. We'll be telling you about that.
Speaker 1: Several hundred National Guard members have arrived in LA to
Speaker 1: assist in protecting federal property during the ice protests. President
Speaker 1: Trump called up two thousand and also put marines at
Speaker 1: Camp Pendleton on standby in case they're needed. LA Mayor
Speaker 1: Bass and Governor Newsom say they are not needed and
Speaker 1: are a dangerous escalation. LA schools will be in session
Speaker 1: today in spite of the unrest. District authorities say they
Speaker 1: support families in any decision that's best for the students
Speaker 1: in the circumstances, and that the demonstration would be monitored
Speaker 1: for updates. The man caught up in an ice sweep
Speaker 1: in Maryland and deported to a Central American prison has
Speaker 1: been returned to the US. ABC. Stephen Portenoy's going to
Speaker 1: join us at five point twenty to tell us what's
Speaker 1: next for the alleged MS thirteen member Kilmar Abrago Garcia.
Speaker 1: And of course, the big news over the weekend, because
Speaker 1: I am an optimist, Gizmo left the nest. So Sonny
Speaker 1: and Gizmo, our big Bear Eglitz have both left the nest.
Speaker 1: They were pretty much gone all weekend, but I checked
Speaker 1: last night and they're both back in the nest this morning.
Speaker 1: So we're gonna check with We're gonna check in with
Speaker 1: Sandy Steersy, executive director at Friends of Big Bear Valley,
Speaker 1: find out how our eagles are doing and what is
Speaker 1: next as they continue their journey. It was so cool
Speaker 1: to see it, although Gizmo kind of fell out of
Speaker 1: the nest oops, but she made it and she did great,
Speaker 1: and she spent the weekend away and then they both
Speaker 1: came back last night, so we'll keep you all up
Speaker 1: to date on that. Again. We'll be talking to Sandy
Speaker 1: Steers at five point fifty, So let's get started with
Speaker 1: the stories coming out of the KFI twenty four hour newsroom.
Speaker 1: Of course, we're talking protests. Dozens of arrests have been
Speaker 1: made during the demonstrations in downtown. La Police declared that
Speaker 1: unlawful assembly yesterday in the area of Alameda Street, where
Speaker 1: National Guardsmen were positioned outside the Federal Building. Kfi's Michael
Speaker 1: Monks was there and says the troopers responded in mediately
Speaker 1: when confronted.
Speaker 5: These shields went down, the helmet mask came down, and
Speaker 5: the pushing started, the tear gas started, and this crowd
Speaker 5: just cleared out in an instant.
Speaker 1: It was a third day that demonstrators got violent. The
Speaker 1: LAPD requested mutual aid last night from the La County
Speaker 1: Sheriff's Department, which sent more than one hundred deputies to
Speaker 1: support the department and the Highway patrol. Sheriff Robert Luna
Speaker 1: says they were mostly tasked with clearing people out of
Speaker 1: the area.
Speaker 6: As we're doing this and we see that the crowds
Speaker 6: are not diminishing, I have put out a formal request
Speaker 6: for more mutual late.
Speaker 1: Assistance, the National Guard was called in to help protect
Speaker 1: the police who were trying to disperse demonstrators. Chief McDonald's
Speaker 1: says he wouldn't have jumped in pulling the National Guard
Speaker 1: in so quickly.
Speaker 6: I'd say that we would go to that right away.
Speaker 6: I'd say we wouldn't have been there yet. Looking at
Speaker 6: the violence tonight, I think we got to make a reassessment, okay.
Speaker 1: Referring to the violence last night, McDonald says people causing
Speaker 1: chaos may not believe in the spirit of the actual demonstration.
Speaker 6: Even more disgusting that many of the people who were
Speaker 6: doing this come in from other places just to hurt
Speaker 6: people and to cause havoc.
Speaker 1: McDonald says his officers are facing more and more potentially
Speaker 1: deadly violence, including being shot at with commercial grade fireworks.
Speaker 1: And we're going to get the latest on the protest
Speaker 1: with ABC's Alex Stone in just a moment, But first
Speaker 1: let's take a first look at your morning commute. And
Speaker 1: we had that one on one freeway closed for much
Speaker 1: of yesterday, but will Cole Schreiber says it's open.
Speaker 7: Yeah.
Speaker 4: The good news is.
Speaker 8: At this hour the mainline lanes of the north and
Speaker 8: south one oh one through downtown Los Angeles are open.
Speaker 4: There are exceptions though.
Speaker 8: The transition roads it looks like from the one ten
Speaker 8: freeway are still closed. So if you're trying to get
Speaker 8: through the four level interchange and thinking you're going to
Speaker 8: go from the one ten to the south one o one,
Speaker 8: not quite yet. They're still working on that. And some
Speaker 8: of the the on and off ramps in downtown LA
Speaker 8: are closed. We know for sure that the Alameda off
Speaker 8: ramp from the northbound side of the one on one
Speaker 8: is blocked off as they were to clean up debris
Speaker 8: and just have that blocked.
Speaker 4: Off until further notice.
Speaker 8: And we've got some issues fifty five southbound dire road
Speaker 8: crash there on the off ramp, and the westbound side
Speaker 8: of the ten at Ediwanda in Ontario from Ediwanda to
Speaker 8: the fifteen two lanes closed for Caltrans were huge delays
Speaker 8: back from Citrus. So that's a big Caltrans project that
Speaker 8: they're still working on. With Southern California's most accurate traffic reports.
Speaker 4: I'm will Cole Schriver.
Speaker 1: It's five oh six on your wake up call, so
Speaker 1: will the protest yesterday I was watching it from the
Speaker 1: comfort of my home, as was I and just the
Speaker 1: police cars and the pelting of them with the rocks.
Speaker 1: I mean, it was just absolutely unbelievable to me.
Speaker 8: Those police cars were all on the you know, the
Speaker 8: lower level of the freeway and those on and off
Speaker 8: ramps are elevated above them, and anybody up there just
Speaker 8: had free rain basically to just throw stuff down there.
Speaker 4: And it was unfortunate.
Speaker 1: And I'm wondering where they got these big, huge chunks
Speaker 1: of rocks that they got. But it started when there
Speaker 1: was the protests that were on the surface streets spilled
Speaker 1: out onto the freeway. They blocked the one on one
Speaker 1: freeway for a while, which is a scary thing of itself,
Speaker 1: aside from you know, bottlenecking traffic and leaving people completely stuck. Yeah,
Speaker 1: it's also really difficult because it's dangerous to have people
Speaker 1: out on the roadway like that.
Speaker 8: You'll have some times people get fed up and they
Speaker 8: do things behind the wheel that they wouldn't normally do,
Speaker 8: like you know, aim for protesters. Later that evening last night,
Speaker 8: I saw a video of a minivan. It seemed like
Speaker 8: the minivan was doing circles and actually going after protesters.
Speaker 4: So, yeah, a lot going on.
Speaker 1: There a lot going on. But the good news is
Speaker 1: that they've cleared that roadway off and it doesn't appear
Speaker 1: that any officers were hurt as they were tossing these
Speaker 1: huge chunks of concrete over the overpass. Okay, let's say
Speaker 1: good good morning now to ABC's Alex Stone, who has
Speaker 1: been covering this all weekend. Alex, can you give us
Speaker 1: the latest on what's going on overnight and what's happening
Speaker 1: this morning if anything.
Speaker 9: Amy, Good morning. Yeah, all is fairly quiet right now.
Speaker 10: Wasn't even a couple of hours ago, though, I mean
Speaker 10: a very long night for mainly the LAPD that even
Speaker 10: two o'clock in the morning, that there were people that
Speaker 10: were out and throwing concrete and shooting off fireworks at
Speaker 10: the officers. But just how quickly this whole thing has
Speaker 10: escalated since Friday when we got the first word of
Speaker 10: the emigration enforcement that was.
Speaker 9: Going on, and then to the point that we're at now.
Speaker 10: But you heard Chief McDonald saying overnight that they know
Speaker 10: this is bad, that it has escalated, that they know
Speaker 10: that they've got to get a handle on this, saying this.
Speaker 6: It is violence that I've seen is disgusting. It's escalated
Speaker 6: now since the beginning of this incident. What we saw
Speaker 6: the first night was bad. What we've seen subsequent to
Speaker 6: that is getting increasingly worse and more violent and amy.
Speaker 10: Overnight, the crowd's using dumpsters and park benches as their
Speaker 10: shields downtown around City Hall to protect themselves against the
Speaker 10: pepper balls and the rubber and the foam rounds. The
Speaker 10: lapd has been shooting off and we know that they're
Speaker 10: around sixty who have been arrested. But I mean, really,
Speaker 10: for a lot of the officers, they can't deal with arresting.
Speaker 9: People because they don't have the resources.
Speaker 10: They don't have the time that that takes time to
Speaker 10: put them in handcuffs, haul them away, transport them, do
Speaker 10: the paperwork that it's just about moving these crowds out,
Speaker 10: getting them to eventually disperse, eventually go home. And they
Speaker 10: were able to do it yet again overnight that things
Speaker 10: are calm now, but it'll be a question of where
Speaker 10: things go today. There are a couple of protests, mainly
Speaker 10: earlier in the day that are planned today, so hopefully
Speaker 10: then those crowds disperse.
Speaker 9: And we're not going into the evening hours, but we'll
Speaker 9: see what happened tonight.
Speaker 1: Yeah. I think one of the things that I was
Speaker 1: thinking as I was watching all of this, Alex is
Speaker 1: you mentioned the dumpsters and the park benches, like they
Speaker 1: literally went into Grand Park ripped the pink benches that
Speaker 1: are all around the park that have been put there,
Speaker 1: you know, for people to enjoy. They took them and
Speaker 1: they stole them and put them in the roadways. They're
Speaker 1: all damaged. They're going to have to all be replaced.
Speaker 1: And then you look at the Waimo cars that were
Speaker 1: set on fire. Those who pays for that.
Speaker 10: And spirts cover right, Yeah, and they eventually shut that off,
Speaker 10: so no cars will come into downtown right now. But yeah,
Speaker 10: and then you have the whole element of the National
Speaker 10: Guard here now, where what is their role going to
Speaker 10: be Because they have been federalized by President Trump and
Speaker 10: they didn't come through the normal channels. They're not really
Speaker 10: communicating with the LAPD. Chief McDonald's saying that they had
Speaker 10: one conference call together, but they don't know what the
Speaker 10: role of the National Guard is going to be.
Speaker 9: That he's not.
Speaker 10: Against them being here, but there are steps that they
Speaker 10: would have taken to get to this point and to
Speaker 10: say we want this type of unit. This is a
Speaker 10: combat brigade that is here right now. This is not
Speaker 10: military police that normally we see come in during wildfires
Speaker 10: and doing the roadblocks. So you know that they would
Speaker 10: have gone to the mutual aid system and then where
Speaker 10: police trained together, that they're on the same radio channels.
Speaker 9: There are steps to get to this point.
Speaker 10: And because they are here for the first times in
Speaker 10: nineteen sixty five some Alabama was the last time a
Speaker 10: president deployed the National Guard in that case to protect protesters,
Speaker 10: that without the governor doing it, that this is unusual
Speaker 10: territory to be in. That they are not here working
Speaker 10: with the state. They are not in lockstep with the
Speaker 10: LAPD at this point.
Speaker 9: And then this.
Speaker 10: Threat of active duty Marines being called in, and I mean,
Speaker 10: I can tell you within senior levels of law enforcement,
Speaker 10: they do not.
Speaker 9: Like that idea. The rules of engagement would be different.
Speaker 9: They would not be on police radios.
Speaker 10: They are not trained in crowd control outside of a
Speaker 10: warfare environment like a police are. They don't train with
Speaker 10: the police in the state of California under police standards,
Speaker 10: that would be a whole different thing. So there is
Speaker 10: hope among law enforcement that that step is not taken
Speaker 10: because it's really not welcome at the moment.
Speaker 1: Yeah, and I don't know, Alex, did you get a
Speaker 1: chance to talk to any protesters that yeah, yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: And what are they saying?
Speaker 9: Well, I mean, I think that you've got two different crowds.
Speaker 10: You've got the troublemakers who are out at night, who
Speaker 10: whether it be George Floyd or a Lakers protest or
Speaker 10: not a protest, but you know, a celebration that gets
Speaker 10: out of control, don't want to call a riot or dodgers.
Speaker 9: You've always got that crowd.
Speaker 10: That comes in at night and we see them doing
Speaker 10: the looting and setting the fires, and they may not
Speaker 10: even really be into whatever they're out there for that
Speaker 10: they're just out there to battle the police and create
Speaker 10: mayhem and they find it fun.
Speaker 9: Usually younger men who are out there doing that.
Speaker 10: Of those who are out during the day, like the
Speaker 10: protests that are planned this morning, that are typically very
Speaker 10: into the topic, that are passionate, that have a reason
Speaker 10: why they're there.
Speaker 9: This woman among them.
Speaker 11: Here protesting for our families that are being separated in
Speaker 11: our neighborhoods and we want justice.
Speaker 10: Now, that's very different compared to nighttime where it's going
Speaker 10: to be you know, bleep the police and you know,
Speaker 10: we want this and we want that and breaking windows
Speaker 10: and dropping concrete onto the CHP cars on the one
Speaker 10: on one. So I mean, really two different crowds from
Speaker 10: the daytime crowd to the nighttime crowd a world of difference.
Speaker 1: And do the ones who are there for actually for
Speaker 1: the cause to protest the ice raids, do they realize
Speaker 1: that when there are things like blocking a freeway and
Speaker 1: the vandalism and that kind of stuff, that does not
Speaker 1: advance their cause.
Speaker 10: You know, I think some do. Others believe that they've
Speaker 10: got to do.
Speaker 9: It to make a point.
Speaker 10: And then you've got the others who are just doing
Speaker 10: it because are it's fun and it's fighting the police,
Speaker 10: and you know, they think in mass that they can
Speaker 10: do it and then they're not going to be arrested,
Speaker 10: they're not going to get into trouble.
Speaker 9: There's a lot of motivation in these crowds.
Speaker 10: Some are very authentic and they are there that they
Speaker 10: believe that they have a point to make. Others are
Speaker 10: there to hurt police or just to battle them, and
Speaker 10: that it's you know, just fun on a Sunday night
Speaker 10: because they've got nothing better to do. So, you know,
Speaker 10: with thousands of people out there, everybody's got a different
Speaker 10: reason for being out there. But yeah, I mean I
Speaker 10: think some of them realize that it's not helpful.
Speaker 1: All right. ABC's Alex Stone, thanks for all the information,
Speaker 1: for covering this for us all weekend, and we shall
Speaker 1: see what unfolds today.
Speaker 9: You got it, Thanks, Amy?
Speaker 1: All right, when we come back, the man speaking this
Speaker 1: is all tied into ice raids. The man caught up
Speaker 1: in that ice sweep in Maryland and mistakenly deported to
Speaker 1: a Central American prison has been returned to the US.
Speaker 1: Remember the Supreme Court said, hey, you need to fas
Speaker 1: facilitate his return because he shouldn't have been sent down
Speaker 1: to that prison. Well, he's back in the US. Who
Speaker 1: was done probably differently than anybody had thought it would happen,
Speaker 1: according to the US Supreme Court order. But ABC Stephen
Speaker 1: Portnoy's going to join us to tell us what is
Speaker 1: next for kilmar Abrego Garcia, who is now back in
Speaker 1: the US. It is five twenty on your Monday morning
Speaker 1: wake up call. Good morning to you. I'm Amy King. Wow,
Speaker 1: what a weekend here's what we're following in the KFI
Speaker 1: twenty four hour newsroom. LA faces its fourth day of
Speaker 1: protests over federal immigration raids. Rally is planned at Grand
Speaker 1: Park in downtown LA at noon. Civil rights and labor
Speaker 1: leaders are demanding the release of union leader David Huerta.
Speaker 1: He was taken into federal detention on Friday during an
Speaker 1: immigration enforcement action. Huerta is doing court at the Royball
Speaker 1: Federal Building at one point thirty this afternoon. The LAPD
Speaker 1: almost thirty arrests yesterday and CHP arrested another nineteen during
Speaker 1: the protests. One was arrested for throwing allegedly a Molotov
Speaker 1: cocktail at officers, another for trying to ram police with
Speaker 1: a motorcycle. The CHP arrests mostly tied to the one
Speaker 1: oh one being blocked by protesters. CHP officers became trapped
Speaker 1: under the one oh one freeway overpass at Los Angeles
Speaker 1: Street as the crowd from above pelted their patrol car
Speaker 1: with rocks. At times, the officers tossed tear gas up
Speaker 1: under the roadway above to try to disperse the crowd.
Speaker 1: One officer came out from under the overpass and was
Speaker 1: promptly pelted by rocks. He was able to run back
Speaker 1: under to safety. At six oh five, it's Handle on
Speaker 1: the news. Guess what Handle's going to be talking about. Well,
Speaker 1: probably our dinner on Saturday night, which was fabulous by
Speaker 1: the way, at the Anaheim White House. But also we'll
Speaker 1: be talking about the protests and the National Guard and
Speaker 1: everything that has to do with what's going on in
Speaker 1: downtown LA. Right now, let's say good morning to ABC's
Speaker 1: Stephen Portnoy. We're also talking about ice raids, but this
Speaker 1: one was on the other side of the country that
Speaker 1: started the whole ball rolling with k Abrego Garcia. He's
Speaker 1: now been returned to the US, but not to face
Speaker 1: his due process on whether he should be deported, rather
Speaker 1: to charge him with human trafficking.
Speaker 12: That's right, Amy. He was returned to the US late
Speaker 12: last week. The charges allege that Kilmar Brego Garcia took
Speaker 12: part in a years long conspiracy to transport thousands of
Speaker 12: migrants from Texas.
Speaker 4: To the interior of the country.
Speaker 12: The indictment alleges that drugs and guns were also smuggled
Speaker 12: as part of the conspiracy. That Abrego Garcia alone ran
Speaker 12: more than one hundred trips from Texas to Maryland and
Speaker 12: other states, and he appeared in federal court in Tennessee,
Speaker 12: where he's now being held. The attorneys for Abrego Garcia
Speaker 12: say that they're going to fight to ensure he receives
Speaker 12: a fair trial, something that said they say he had
Speaker 12: not received when he was sent to El Salvador in March,
Speaker 12: and the family remains in federal court in Maryland, saying
Speaker 12: that the fact that he's back in the US does
Speaker 12: not render the litigation that they initiated moot that.
Speaker 4: They say that the federal.
Speaker 12: Government thumbed its nose at the judge in Maryland for
Speaker 12: months and that there need left a stain on the
Speaker 12: constitution that needs to be addressed, perhaps with some sort
Speaker 12: of contempt finding by the judge.
Speaker 1: So his lawyers are his lawyers suing.
Speaker 12: His family has filed the suit in Maryland, and that's
Speaker 12: where things have been for months now, and that was
Speaker 12: where the judge said that the federal government had to
Speaker 12: bring had to facilitate his release in return from l Salvador,
Speaker 12: and that was ultimately a decision that was upheld by
Speaker 12: the Supreme Court. So he's back now, but for not
Speaker 12: the reasons that the judge had ordered he's back for
Speaker 12: different reasons, because of prosecutors went in and got a
Speaker 12: federal grand jury indictment. Now it happens that the former
Speaker 12: head of the Crew Fminal Division of that US Attorney's
Speaker 12: office in the middle of Tennessee resigned some weeks ago.
Speaker 12: He hasn't explained why fully, but our reporting is that
Speaker 12: he did it because he believed that this case was
Speaker 12: being pursued for political reasons. Ben Schrader is his name,
Speaker 12: fifteen year career prosecutor in the US Attorney's Office in Tennessee,
Speaker 12: and he said on LinkedIn a couple of weeks ago
Speaker 12: the only job description he's ever known is to do
Speaker 12: the right thing and the right way for the right reasons,
Speaker 12: which was all of his colleagues in the office and
Speaker 12: across the department the best as they seek to do justice.
Speaker 12: The fact that he resigned is interesting, and I wonder
Speaker 12: whether at a certain point we'll hear more from him,
Speaker 12: But so far he's said formally no comment.
Speaker 1: Okay, So it'd be interesting because when I think Pam
Speaker 1: Bondi came out on Friday, she was saying they'd been
Speaker 1: working on this for a while to put this together.
Speaker 1: So did he get wind of it and say I
Speaker 1: don't want to be part of it, or like what's behind?
Speaker 12: Well? Also defined for a while, I mean Pam Bondi's
Speaker 12: only been in office for a few months and this
Speaker 12: case has only been initiated for a couple of months.
Speaker 12: The indictment was returned last month. So what does for
Speaker 12: a while mean? And that'll be something that the defense
Speaker 12: attorneys may point to if they do what Donald Trump's
Speaker 12: defense lawyers did in his criminal prosecutions, which is to
Speaker 12: allege that this is a selective and vindictive prosecution, an
Speaker 12: example of you find me the man, I'll find you
Speaker 12: the crime.
Speaker 1: Okay, So then what happens next.
Speaker 12: Well, ultimately this case will proceed. And you remember that
Speaker 12: we're talking about two separate things here. We're talking about
Speaker 12: the case against a Brego Garcia and Tennessee and the
Speaker 12: case that his family's brought in Maryland having to do
Speaker 12: with his whereabouts and how his case has been handled.
Speaker 12: These are two separate matters now on parallel tracks.
Speaker 1: All right, ABC's Stephen Portnoy, thank you so much for
Speaker 1: the information. As always, you bet. All right, let's get
Speaker 1: back to some of the stories coming out of the
Speaker 1: KFI twenty four hour newsroom, President Trump has promised to
Speaker 1: maintain law and order in LA with the deployment of
Speaker 1: National Guard troops about three hundred of our eyes. So far,
Speaker 1: he's ordered two thousand. Speaking on his way to Camp
Speaker 1: David yesterday afternoon, Trump told reporters he'll have troops everywhere
Speaker 1: if that's what it takes. When asked if he would
Speaker 1: declare an insurrection, Trump said we're not there yet. Mayor
Speaker 1: bass Is sending the National Guard to LA wasn't necessary,
Speaker 1: She tells KTLA. It's the Trump administration just posturing to.
Speaker 5: Have one hundred troops in Westwood where absolutely.
Speaker 10: Nothing had happened at all, and one hundred downtown is
Speaker 10: just overreach.
Speaker 1: Bass says the LAPD can handle the situation. President Trump's
Speaker 1: borders are, says, elected officials in California and in LA
Speaker 1: could be open to federal prosecution if they're found to
Speaker 1: be impeding law enforcements.
Speaker 4: It's a family to noringly Harbord, cacil on Igo.
Speaker 7: It's a felity to impede law enforcements for doing their job.
Speaker 1: He says, so far, LA's mayor hasn't crossed that line,
Speaker 1: but a post from the Department of Homeland Security on
Speaker 1: x says it is sickening that Mayor Bass continues to
Speaker 1: protect violent writers, rioters, and criminal illegal aliens at the
Speaker 1: expense of the safety of American citizens and communities. John
Speaker 1: Cobalt is going to be talking with Borders Are Tom
Speaker 1: Homan on his show this afternoon. Cobalt Show between one
Speaker 1: and four this afternoon. Tom Holman will be a guest.
Speaker 1: The Coast Guard says it has found a debris field
Speaker 1: of what may be from a small plane crash in
Speaker 1: the waters off the coast of San Diego. Six people
Speaker 1: were on board the plane that apparently went down three
Speaker 1: miles west of Point Loma yesterday afternoon. The US Coast
Speaker 1: Guard says it continues its search of the area. Legal
Speaker 1: challenges are expected over President Trump's travel ban on twelve countries.
Speaker 1: It goes into effect today. Former Department of Homeland Security
Speaker 1: official Elizabeth Newman says it's a repeat of the travel
Speaker 1: ban from twenty twenty.
Speaker 2: One of the first executive orders that was signed by
Speaker 2: the President this year was to basically do the work
Speaker 2: to reinstate the travel ban.
Speaker 1: The band took effect at midnight this week, we'll see
Speaker 1: political wrangling in the Senate to pass President Trump's megabill,
Speaker 1: you know, the Big Beautiful Bill. ABC's Jonathan carl says
Speaker 1: it was approved in the House by just one vote.
Speaker 13: It's very clear that there are going to be changes.
Speaker 13: It's unclear if first of all, there are the votes
Speaker 13: to pass it in the Senate, and with those changes,
Speaker 13: if Johnson can get it passed again in the House.
Speaker 1: He says, Johnson is asking the Senate not to make
Speaker 1: any major changes to the bill because that'll make it
Speaker 1: harder to pass again in the House. Authorities in Michigan
Speaker 1: say a potential tragedy has been averted as they foiled
Speaker 1: a mass shooting plot at a high school graduation. ABC's
Speaker 1: Morgan Norwood says two people have been taken into custody.

Speaker 1: the dinner with Bill Handle at the Anaheim White House
Speaker 1: with some of his big fans, and it was so
Speaker 1: much fun. But we're driving down there and hearing how
Speaker 1: people are, you know, tearing stuff up in Paramount and
Speaker 1: lighting stuff on fire. It's just this weird, don't you think,
Speaker 1: like this weird kind of reality where you want to

Speaker 1: twenty four hour newsroom. Ice protests continued through the night,
Speaker 1: with crowds marching and gathering nil near La Live and
Speaker 1: Crypto dot Com Arena. Several police cars were pelted by protesters.
Speaker 1: There's a report that a man was driving recklessly at
Speaker 1: high speed, which was putting pedestrians in danger and also
Speaker 1: caused a motorcyclist to go down. Several fires burned in
Speaker 1: the streets and other parts of downtown, but police and
Speaker 1: firefighters pretty much just let them burn. The Department of
Speaker 1: Homeland Securities released information on several of the people detained
Speaker 1: in the ice raids, saying that they have long rap sheets,
Speaker 1: including robbery, domestic violence, and second degree murder. Governor Newsom
Speaker 1: says the state of California is going to sue the
Speaker 1: Trump administration, this time over the deployment of two thousand
Speaker 1: National Guard troops. He's urged the President to rescind the
Speaker 1: order for the troops, calling it illegal and unconstitutional. Newsom
Speaker 1: says Trump cannot activate the state's National Guard without coordinating
Speaker 1: it with him. First, let's get back to some of
Speaker 1: the stories coming out of the KFI twenty four hour newsroom.
Speaker 1: Demonstrators have protested outside the Federal Building as part of
Speaker 1: their ongoing pushback against the ice raids that clashes with
Speaker 1: National Guard troops yesterday, who used tear gas to try
Speaker 1: to disperse the crowd. Kfi's Michael Monks was there and
Speaker 1: says the protesters were ready for it.
Speaker 5: A lot of people are wearing masks anyway, some in
Speaker 5: full fledged gas mask, others and more makeshift masks. But
Speaker 5: they're prepared with milk and water and other types of
Speaker 5: liquids that they've learned to use. Should sheer gas come out.
Speaker 1: The LAPD declared a tactical alert in its attempt to
Speaker 1: clear the hundreds of protesters. Several Democratic lawmakers are demanding
Speaker 1: to know why they were denied entry into the federal
Speaker 1: detention center in downtown where illegal immigrants caught up in
Speaker 1: the ice raids have been taken.
Speaker 15: We presented ourselves like were supposed to shorten my Congressional
Speaker 15: ID cards, saying I'm a member of Congress. Under this law,
Speaker 15: I have a right to inspect the facility.
Speaker 1: Democratic Representative Jimmy Gomez says he and his constituents we
Speaker 1: were trying to enter the facility after they heard people
Speaker 1: inside had been denied basic necessities.
Speaker 15: It has a capacity about one hundred people. It's only
Speaker 15: supposed to be a short term holding facility for twelve hours.
Speaker 15: People were there for over twenty four hours and that
Speaker 15: there were way above the one hundred person capacities.
Speaker 1: Gomez says they were told they wouldn't go in because
Speaker 1: of safety issues. A Chinese national living in Ontario is
Speaker 1: expected to plead guilty today to federal charges that he
Speaker 1: intended to illegally ship weapons to North Korea for use
Speaker 1: by the secretive Communist countries military in a surprise attack
Speaker 1: on South Korea. Prosecutors say that Shenwa Wen and his
Speaker 1: co conspirators exported at least two shipments of weapons and
Speaker 1: AMMO to North Korea two years ago. They say the
Speaker 1: items were concealed inside containers that were shipped from Long
Speaker 1: Beach through Hong Kong to North Korea when is in
Speaker 1: the country illegally after overstaying his student visa that expired
Speaker 1: in twenty twelve. Israeli forces have seized an AID boat
Speaker 1: that was headed for Gaza and detained the activists on board,
Speaker 1: including Greta Thunberg. The activists posted a series of videos
Speaker 1: online saying Israeli troops had boarded the vessel as it
Speaker 1: got close to Gaza. Please everyone. The Freedom Flotilla coalition,
Speaker 1: which organized the voyage, said the activists were kidnapped by
Speaker 1: Israeli forces the boat was trying to get past a
Speaker 1: long standing blockade of the Palestinian territory. Israel said the
Speaker 1: activists would return to their home countries and the AID
Speaker 1: would be sent to Gaza through established channels. A new
Speaker 1: warning is out about weight loss and diabetes medications. Regulators
Speaker 1: in the UK say the drugs may weaken the effectiveness
Speaker 1: of birth control. Doctor Alec Patel says the study also
Speaker 1: warns weight loss drugs may be harmful to pregnant women.
Speaker 5: Talk to your doctor about potentially another option and using
Speaker 5: barrier contraception as well.
Speaker 1: He says people taking the meds should also talk to
Speaker 1: their doctor about potential interactions with other drugs. Time to
Speaker 1: get in your business, as we do every day at
Speaker 1: five point forty with Bloomberg's Courtney Donaho Mourning Courtney, good morning. Well,
Speaker 1: we've got the protests, but we still have you know,
Speaker 1: life goes on and there's lots going on. So let's
Speaker 1: take a look at the major shakeup in the media business.
Speaker 16: Yes, Warner Brothers Discovery splitting into two publicly traded companies.
Speaker 16: This has kind of been on the radar for some time.
Speaker 16: In this report is sponsored by Total Wine En war
Speaker 16: So here's what's going to happen. The streaming and studios
Speaker 16: company will consist of Warner Brothers TV and Film HBO,
Speaker 16: HBO Max, as well as its film and television libraries.
Speaker 16: On the other hand, we have global Networks that's going
Speaker 16: to include its entertainment, sports, and news brands such as
Speaker 16: CNNTNT Sports and bleacher Report. The separation is expected to
Speaker 16: be completed by the middle of next year. But see,
Speaker 16: here's the issue. Traditional media companies have been struggling the
Speaker 16: face of all the expensive streaming wars that we've been seeing,
Speaker 16: especially with Netflix. So Comcast recently did something similar. They
Speaker 16: separated their cable networks a CNBCMSNBC from the main NBC
Speaker 16: network and it's Peacock streaming service and its universal theme parks.
Speaker 1: Okay, so why do that so they can spin them off.
Speaker 16: Yeah, so they could be managed a little bit, a
Speaker 16: little bit better, because sometimes when they're so large in
Speaker 16: this case, and there has been so much consolidation within
Speaker 16: the industry, different parts struggle. And this is why they'll
Speaker 16: be able to have the focus then on the streaming business,
Speaker 16: on HBO Max, things that have been doing stronger. Where
Speaker 16: the traditional news brands, the traditional cable brands such as
Speaker 16: the Discovery Network for example, CNN, they've been struggling in
Speaker 16: the light of what we've been seeing changing from streaming
Speaker 16: to changing with the change from streaming from cable to streaming.
Speaker 11: Excuse me, all right, Walmart says, yeah, we got tariffs,
Speaker 11: we got higher prices, but that's not keeping people away,
Speaker 11: Oh not at all, they said.
Speaker 16: Shoppers are still spending about the same that they did
Speaker 16: a year ago. However, this time the focus is more
Speaker 16: on food and essentials over discretionary purchases. Obviously, people are
Speaker 16: holding onto the purse strings a little bit more. The
Speaker 16: company also says that it's going to continue to communicate
Speaker 16: the impact of tariffs to investors, consumers, and lawmakers. That's
Speaker 16: an interesting point because last month, remember Walmart Warren that
Speaker 16: it was going to pass on all the tariff price
Speaker 16: hikes on some of their goods, and that frustrated President Trump.
Speaker 16: He said the retailer should eat the tariffs. So the
Speaker 16: company signaled its its intention to keep prices low overall,
Speaker 16: but noting that it won't.
Speaker 1: Do so at the expense of profit growth. Okay, speaking
Speaker 1: of eating, we might have a sign of economic hard
Speaker 1: times ahead. Sales are down at Dominoes and Pizza Hut.
Speaker 16: Yeah, pizza losing some of its byte, same store sales
Speaker 16: and losing some of its bite.
Speaker 1: Yeah, trying to see what I did there.
Speaker 16: Same store sales down at all of the three major
Speaker 16: pizza chains Pizza Hut, Pop, John's, Dominoes. There are a
Speaker 16: number of factors that are denting sales at the restaurants.
Speaker 16: We could talk about uberyates, we could talk about grub hub,
Speaker 16: but the biggest one seems to be low income families
Speaker 16: are getting priced out pizza.
Speaker 1: It's getting so expensive.
Speaker 16: The average price of a large pizza at these chains
Speaker 16: now a little more than eighteen dollars. The overall check
Speaker 16: has jumped nearly thirty percent since twenty nineteen, and according
Speaker 16: to market research firm Technomic, that's slightly higher than the
Speaker 16: increases at burger and chicken chains. So people are saying,
Speaker 16: you know what, if pizza's going to be this expensive,
Speaker 16: maybe I'll go get myself a chicken sandwich.
Speaker 1: Yeah, but your chicken sandwich is eight or nine dollars
Speaker 1: on itself, and you don't get a whole pizza exactly.
Speaker 16: But people are saying, you know, it's it's we're going
Speaker 16: to eat at home too. Another big trend that they've
Speaker 16: been noticing is that a lot more people are making
Speaker 16: their own pizza in their house. So they're getting dough,
Speaker 16: they're getting the ingredients and making everything at home.
Speaker 1: And sometimes that's a lot of fun and quite delicious.
Speaker 16: Okay, what do we look atbably better in the markets today, well,
Speaker 16: we're looking at slight gains. Investors are focused on the
Speaker 16: trade talks between the US and China. The event of
Speaker 16: the week is coming up on Wednesday. That's the inflation
Speaker 16: report for May. We'll talk about that. Consumers probably saw
Speaker 16: slightly faster pace of price hikes from the tariffs. So
Speaker 16: that's something that we're going to be watching because inflation
Speaker 16: has hurt so many people, frustrating so many people across
Speaker 16: the country and down futures. Right now they're fifty points
Speaker 16: and on Friday stocks closed at the highest level since February.
Speaker 16: The S and P five hundred hit the six thousand
Speaker 16: mark once again, rising one percent.
Speaker 1: Wow. Okay, that's getting in your business with Bloomberg's Courtney Donaho,
Speaker 1: as we do every morning. Thanks Courtney. We'll talk to
Speaker 1: you tomorrow, see you later. All right. When we come back, Well,
Speaker 1: we've got Sandy Steers with friends of Big Bear Valley.
Speaker 1: She's got the latest on our eagles that have flown
Speaker 1: the coop, left the nest, but then they came in back. Yeah,
Speaker 1: so we'll find out what's next for our favorite eagles,
Speaker 1: which we already have thousands and thousands of people watching
Speaker 1: at five point forty five in the morning. I know
Speaker 1: I'm addicted, you are too, right, Okay, Kat, it's five
Speaker 1: fifty three on your Monday morning wake up call. Good morning.
Speaker 1: I'm me king. Here's what we're following in the KFI
Speaker 1: twenty four hour newsroom. Borders are Tom Holman says elected
Speaker 1: officials could face federal prosecution if they're found to be
Speaker 1: impeding law enforcement. Holman says he doesn't think Mayor Bass
Speaker 1: has crossed that line yet, but says it is sickening
Speaker 1: that the mayor continues to protect rioters and criminal illegal
Speaker 1: immigrants at the expense of the safety of American citizens
Speaker 1: and communities. Borders our Tom Holman is going to be
Speaker 1: on with John Cobalt today at one o'clock. The wave
Speaker 1: of protests began Friday, when dozens of people were arrested.
Speaker 1: The protests against ice immigration raids continued Saturday in Paramount
Speaker 1: Compton and in Downtown LA and in Downtown LA Yesterday,
Speaker 1: several way mos were set on fire. Protesters blocked the
Speaker 1: one on one freeway, which caused one direction of the
Speaker 1: freeway to be shut down for hours and hours. Protesters
Speaker 1: stole Pink Park benches from Grand Park to build a
Speaker 1: barrier on the street near City Hall. Yesterday afternoon, LAPD
Speaker 1: declared an unlawful assembly shortly after three in the afternoon,
Speaker 1: hundreds refused to disperse. Right now, let's say good morning
Speaker 1: to the executive director of Friends of Big Bear Valley,
Speaker 1: Sandy Steers. Sandy, Gizmo did it? Ope? Do we have Sandy?
Speaker 1: We had Sandy on the phone. She's on the phone.
Speaker 1: There we go, there's Sandy. Hi, Good morning, Sandy, Good morning. Okay,
Speaker 1: So I started to say, Gizmo did it. We're so
Speaker 1: proud our our youngest eagle left the nest.
Speaker 7: Yes, she did, although she came back. She came back
Speaker 7: last night. Both of them came back last night. Yeah.
Speaker 1: I see that they're both in there right now. So
Speaker 1: tell us what happened. How did she fledge? Because we
Speaker 1: know that he left the nest on Monday and we
Speaker 1: were waiting and waiting to see if Gizmo would do it,
Speaker 1: and she did it. How did it all come together?
Speaker 7: I'm actually not sure that she intended to do it.
Speaker 7: Right at the moment that she did, she was flapping
Speaker 7: all around the nest and running from one branch to another.
Speaker 7: And practicing, and she kept looking up at different branches
Speaker 7: seeing if she could hop over to that one rather
Speaker 7: than go around through the nest. And when she did that,
Speaker 7: I think she tried to get up to another branch
Speaker 7: but didn't quite make it, and so the only option
Speaker 7: was to fly. But she did it beautifully, she did.
Speaker 1: And so she and she did sort of like what
Speaker 1: Sonny did. She just went over to another tree. And
Speaker 1: then did she just hang out there for the weekend.
Speaker 7: No, she stayed there for that day, but before evening
Speaker 7: she flew off to another Before nightfall, she flew off
Speaker 7: to another tree and spent the night over there.
Speaker 1: I just love that because I was worried, Like you said,
Speaker 1: we weren't sure that she actually planned to do that,
Speaker 1: and so I was like, I hope she's strong enough.
Speaker 1: But then when we saw them last night, both of
Speaker 1: them were back in the nest, You're like, Yep, she's
Speaker 1: got this.
Speaker 7: She does, and she made a beautiful landing in the
Speaker 7: nest last night, so she's got it all figured out.
Speaker 7: She's together.
Speaker 1: Okay, So they're both there this morning, and of course
Speaker 1: we don't know for sure, but is there a good
Speaker 1: chance that Jackie and Shadow will come feed them before
Speaker 1: they take off this morning.
Speaker 7: Probably yes, But I don't know what time they're going
Speaker 7: to take off or how early Jackie and Shadow will come.
Speaker 7: But I'm sure they would both like some food. They
Speaker 7: both had food, and Sonny was back at the nest
Speaker 7: soon enough yesterday that she got a whole fish from mom.
Speaker 1: I love that, Okay, and Sandy, how long? How long
Speaker 1: does this continue? I know we've talked about this before,
Speaker 1: but they can fly now, but they're not ready to
Speaker 1: quote leave the nest.
Speaker 7: No, they're not ready yet. They haven't learned how to
Speaker 7: really maneuver in the wild, as in how to find
Speaker 7: food or fish or anything like that. So that Jackie
Speaker 7: and Shadow will be following them around and bringing them
Speaker 7: food and keeping guard over them and teaching them all
Speaker 7: these skills of being out in the world.
Speaker 1: That's amazing. And you've been following this and along with
Speaker 1: thousands of people. I just checked the numbers on it,
Speaker 1: and like this morning, it's already up to like thirty
Speaker 1: five thousand people are watching it before six o'clock in
Speaker 1: the morning. I mean, like, how rewarding is this for you?
Speaker 1: After we had a couple of years were Jackie in Shadow,
Speaker 1: We unfortunately didn't get any eglits and now we have
Speaker 1: two and it looks like they're both they're both rare
Speaker 1: and to go and fly like an eagle.
Speaker 7: Yes, no, I'm thrilled that they made it this far.
Speaker 7: It's a huge success story to have. It's the first
Speaker 7: time Jackie In and Shadow have had to make it
Speaker 7: to fledging and they're both doing great.
Speaker 1: Okay, And for Friends of Big Bear Valley, you know,
Speaker 1: why is this an important thing? I mean, we get
Speaker 1: to sneak and sort of be voyeurs and watch them
Speaker 1: do this, but why is this important for people? And
Speaker 1: for you?
Speaker 7: First, it gives us information about the eagles and how
Speaker 7: they live their life and what things are essential to
Speaker 7: their thriving. And also just having so many people connected
Speaker 7: and seeing what it's like for them to have to
Speaker 7: be out there in the world. It's making people realize
Speaker 7: that they need to appreciate and support nature rather than
Speaker 7: fight with it.
Speaker 1: Absolutely well, Sandy Steers, Friends of Big Bear Valley, thank
Speaker 1: you so much for giving us your insight into the
Speaker 1: first flights of our favorite little eagles, Gizmo and Sonny.

Speaker 1: and the ick stuff going on in the world, that's

Speaker 1: the world every single day.
