Hello there, John Cobalt show. We are on the air every day at this time from three to six. And whatever you miss, you can listen to the audio podcast from at six o'clock John Cobalt show on demand. Live on YouTube, live on X, an special treat today. We had an extra hour live stream video we did on YouTube in X. And that's already done live, it's posted as a video. It's also a podcast hour, right? So bonus video, bonus audio. And a lot of it is on Gavin Newsome. And I know people really enjoy discussing the governor. So you listen to it and I think you'll like it. All right, this is so crazy. You know, as almost every day when I look at the news in the morning, I got a really like five, 36 o'clock. And I start looking and it's like, no, this can't be. I'm figuring I maybe, yeah, maybe I'm still in a dream. By the way, I had a horrible dream last night. Would you dream? I can't even talk about it. Really? Was I in it? I better not? Yeah, you were. No, don't. Did I die? No, you didn't die. But we were in danger. So this is the story, the LA Times, James Rainey. Well, actually, I looked up, I could believe the story so much. I then read another version in the New York post and another version, L-A-Ist.com, which is public radio, everybody's got the same story. The, the, the city of Los Angeles needs $2 billion from Donald Trump from the federal government to get 1,700 extra buses on the roads for the Olympic games and to create high speed lanes on streets and freeways. Now here we are, now less than two years to the start of the Olympic games. And Los Angeles had promised everybody that even though it was going to be the financial backstop if the cost of the games went overboard, don't worry, we aren't going to need, we're not going to have to spend any extra money, everything's under control. And all of a sudden, we need $2 billion from the Trump administration for 1,700 buses. Now that sounds crazy, that much money, just for buses. Now I looked up previous Olympics here in America, how much did the federal government spend? In 1984, the last time it was in Los Angeles, the federal government spent $75 million, accounting for inflation, $145 million. That Olympics made a profit, they made money on that Olympics. But adjusting for inflation, the federal government threw in $145 million, most of it for security and staging assistance, very little money was spent on capital projects. Now so that's $145 million, this is $2 billion for 1,700 buses and some high speed lanes. And what do you mean high speed, I guess, you can't build new lanes on the streets. So is that just for the paint to put special colors that it's high speed? I guess that's for the buses that they don't have? Isn't this amazing? We have high speed rail, but we don't have the rail and we don't have the trains. And now we have high speed bus lanes are supposed to have for the Olympics, but we don't have the lane and we don't have the buses. Now 5 Democratic members of Congress got together at a press conference in West Hollywood, led by the extremely irritating Laura Friedman from Glendale. And she said we are certainly insisting that the federal government provide the resources that Los Angeles needs to make these games a success. We need $2 billion to give these seamless, wonderful experience everyone expects. But when Garcetti was selling this thing, he said that they weren't going to need any tax money. Don't worry. L.A.O. handle it. Or the Olympic Committee will handle it. Now, now all of a sudden, we're insisting, by the way, all these people are hardcore obnoxious Trump haters. Put aside what you think of Trump. If you need billions of dollars from somebody, are you going to spend years insulting him? And then you're going to be all indignant and outraged when he doesn't answer your call? What do you think he's going to do? I mean, I'm sure he doesn't want the United States embarrassed. Or maybe he's just going to let California and Los Angeles hung out to dry and say, hey, they wanted the Olympics. They promised they wouldn't need any outside money. Looking at the 1996 Atlanta Olympics, that federal funding was $605 million, which translates to $1.2 billion in today's money. But a lot of that money was for projects that would likely have been built anyway, received federal funds anyway. There were real infrastructure projects. We are just renting buses for two weeks. And we're painting, we're painting lanes. But on top of this, the communist LA city controller Kenneth Mejia said that LA28, and that is the private nonprofit that's overseeing the games, he wants more detailed reports on its finances because they have complied fully with only two of the nine requirements of the contract, something called the games agreement. Now, the communist is calling out the LA Olympic Committee here for not sharing for sharing very little financial information. In time, the congresspeople are insisting demanding the Trump cough up $2 billion for buses. I'd like to see the breakout on that $1,700 buses for $2 billion for two weeks. And it seems like this all should have been worked out, I don't know, 10 years ago when they were bidding on this, am I crazy, I'm not an Olympic financing expert, but really now, you suddenly realized you're $2 billion short. They're apparently trying to get support from Trump and the Republicans. Last year, there was legislation approved in Congress, promising $1 billion in funding for security, but none of that money is shown up yet. And Friedman, Laura Friedman is saying without the money, then the games aren't going to be the big showcase event for Los Angeles and California, that people are expecting. Well, maybe Los Angeles and California should have come up with the money. I mean, California is spending $13 billion on legal alien healthcare. Maybe you shouldn't have done that. You wasted $17 billion on high-speed rail. flush down the toilet. You blew, oh, you allowed like 35 billion to get stolen for the unemployment for the unemployment fraud that went on during COVID. How about the 24 billion dollars that knew some blue on homeless spending and he can't account for it. And now you're banging on Trump's store. That's, that's really outrageous. These, this is why you can't give a, a big project like putting on the world by the Olympics to a bunch, a bunch of clowns. This is $2 billion for 1700 buses. This episode sponsored by She's Birdie.

We're on from three to six YouTube X. We have a live video running right now, and this morning we did a live stream, and you can access that on either YouTube or X as well. I mentioned this on the live stream, and if you have just a few dollars, you should subscribe to Spencer Pratt's sub-stack, because he's actually a great writer. He said the other day he goes, "People think I don't write this. They think it's AI." No, I write it. He writes it. He's really good stuff. I don't want to give away what's in it, but he talked about what a disaster Gavin Newsom will be as a candidate running for president, and he should read it. He also made several cocaine jokes in the story, and then Dr. Huma and Hamadi, who we've had on the show, and he's a man of many talents, and he posted something today, making a crack about Newsom's cocaine. I just kind of found it weird that there are four cocaine references this morning and the stuff I was reading, because people think of him as maybe having tequila and wine issues, because remember after the Palisades fire, his friend apparently told a reporter or told friends, and he got leaked out that Newsom knocked back a whole bottle of tequila by the end of that day. He's in the news for wine again. He said, he's on a press conference he had for something else. He and, well, Grifter, Gavin and Grifter, Jennifer are selling their home in the Sacramento area for seven and a half million dollars. Now, in the real estate description of the home, it says a 5,000 bottle wine seller, and that is a lot of wine, and he runs, well, he has a company that runs the wineries, vineyards, restaurants. He's claiming he didn't know there was a 5,000 bottle wine seller. Listen to this clip. Are you serious? Really? No, I never felt it. I just, I didn't even know what had that much till I read that in your newspaper. Literally didn't even know. By the way, I put books in there. I don't know if you saw the photos. There's no wine there. It's books. Yeah, trust me. It's my only inheritance for my father. Well, I think that's a triple lie there. He managed to cram three lies in eight seconds. First of all, there is a photo with wine bottles in all the cubby holes. I'm looking at it right now. And there is also the next shelf over our books. But he announced on stage some months back that he can't read. People who can't read don't have book collections. Oh, but he said, well, that's the only inheritance he got from his dad, huh? His dad was the fixer. He was an attorney and a judge and was the fixer for the Getty family. And in fact, he negotiated that famous incident where one of the Getty kids back in the seventies was kidnapped. And the kidnapper sliced off in here. Yeah, if a newsroom's dad, I guess he wasn't much of a negotiator. I mean, when you end up losing your kids here, he's about as good of a negotiator as Newsom is governor. It's like the Doug Garcetti's, you know, Gill and Eric. You got the Doug Newsom's William and Gavin. But any event he claims there's the only inheritance, the inheritance. I doubt that if if William Newsom is getting paid by the Getty's and the Getty's gave Gavin the money to start up 10 out of his 11 businesses. Most of them related to not all them related to wine and restaurants, wine and food. So what? What is this? That is only dad's inheritance. If your dad's Getty connections, got you the money to start 10 businesses. And you do have bottles of wine. And look, if I had a house with 5,000 bottles of wine, I would know it holds 5,000 bottles of wine because if you look at the photo of the wine seller, it can't be anything else. It's meant to be cold. It's got a brick ceiling brick walls tile floors. I'm sure it's refrigerated. Well, I didn't know. Oh, wow, really? Oh, I didn't know that time. Red your story. Really? Oh, I have his books there. And I'm looking at the photos. Like, yeah, there's books on one aisle, but there's wine bottles at the other aisle. How does he do that? And he does it. And he doesn't even hesitate. Sometimes when people try to lie, they get a catch in their speech and the flow of their speech, they can't really go through with it. Ah, that's. And the home also has a personal wellness oasis. A resort style pole pool full size tennis court. And the private casino, which I was told is guest house. Yeah, much of the newsroom's income is from a wine and hospitality business that he got from the getty oil family. Didn't get an inheritance from his dad. No, he just got lifelong connections to one of the wealthiest families in American history, which he used to produce. He's actually he actually makes wine. Plumpjack. I ever tell you, my wife was putting together a gift basket and it's kind of a local place. And I was on speakerphone, so I heard the woman say, okay, you know, is there any particular wine you want in the gift basket? I said, no, I'm what do you have? Oh, we could put this plump jack. And I just yelled it from across the room. No, plump jack. No, not enough of our money is going to do some. We're not giving it. We're not buying a bottle of this wine too. Hey, John, you just missed something. You know, I think I told you that Mayor Bass was live on KTLA. Yeah. There's an abandoned building in studio sitting in. So the residents are fed up because homeless people are there. There's lots of trash. It's a nightmare. So I was looking at Mayor Bass and she looked very different to me and then Ray came in and said, what the heck with her face? You need to tell John. So she did some. There's a change. And you missed it because she's not on. But I'm sure Ray will find a picture or something. But she there's something unless she's aging because of the stress of the campaign. I don't know. This was a good change or bad change. Bad change. I'm taking the fifth. Really? Maybe a surgery on a ride? At first, I thought she kind of looked older, but I right. So Eric is saying yes, but there's something different. And I don't I don't know what it is. So I'm not going to say all right. Well, I can't understand that, you know, stress. She's probably under a lot of stress these days. Hey, it's it's not easy destroying a major city. You know, that take that that she's probably 18, 20 hours a day running this place. All right. I'll go look for it while you do the news. Okay. And this was this was raised. This ray wanted me to tell you so don't play me anybody about. Yeah, we got a lot of Karen Bass fans in the audience are insulted. Yeah, sure. They'll be picket lines here soon. You're listening to John Cobalt on demand from KFI AM640. KFI AM640 more stimulating talk radio. John Cobalt show and Ron from three to six. And you can follow us at John Cobalt radio. So I'm looking to find some video of Karen Bass's public appearance today, which has so far it's unanimous that she's not looking too good. But I can't find I can't find that exact video. But I didn't know about the story until now. There is a there was a fire in studio city at this abandoned property. It was a house and it had enormous amounts of garbage. In the backyard, an empty swimming pool filled to the top with all kinds of trash. And everybody's now screaming at bass because that people in the neighborhood have called bass and they've called nithia ramen at her district, of course. They have records going back to 2021. They've been calling about this property. Finally, it goes on fire. And bass and ramen are now blaming each other. The reason that the story finally went public is the neighbors finally called the media, which I think should be the first thing you do when you have one of these places. Not the last thing. Problems go back to 2021. And bass is saying ramen should have contacted her directly. You're not aware you're not I'm you know, I got pickups back. So so it's been five five years. Okay, you know what? Now what am I going to do? Go get some sugar and put it on your tongue. Sugar on my tongue? Yeah. Well, I don't have any sugar here. Okay, well, somebody let me tell you you're doing a wide radio show. The last thing you want is a case of the hiccups. I know. You were worried about catching colds and coughing while you're reading the news. hiccups aren't much better. Hold your breath for five seconds for five seconds. One, two, three, four, five. Okay, let's see if that helped. Okay. Well, you did six, but it's okay. That's all right. I hiccuped once. So now I came back. Oh, I disagree. Great afternoon. This is this is just great. Well, you people just have to put up the hiccups. I don't know what to tell you. In any event, bass is saying that she's had that Romans had her cell phone number for years. Why didn't she call the the neighbors are saying what we've called ramen for years and she never did anything. They're saying they called city hall for years and you never did anything. Is it dawning on people that these two bass and ramen don't care at all? They have a good life. They're making a lot of money and they don't sit around waiting for your phone calls. They don't read memos from the staff who've put together the days complaints. Whatever you're calling in whoever you're talking to, the news doesn't reach bass or ramen. And they don't they're not asking for the news. I'm not demanding that their employees tell them what's going on. So you might as well be shouting down just lift up a manhole and shout down into the sewers. Go talk to the wall as my mother used to say. I feel like I'm talking to the wall. You aren't talking to the wall. Now I was just watching a clip from channel five where she went on the morning show and she goes, you know, I always watch your show. She tries to disarm. I noticed this interview. She tries to disarm the interviewer. Well, as you know, well, we've talked about this trying to establish a personal relationship. So she tells the KTLA anchor's why I watch you every morning. And I guess, I guess she saw this story and realized she's got to do something because the video of the fire is pretty spectacular. And the old video they had of all the all the rotting garbage is pretty spectacular. And this is on Babcock Avenue. There was so much debris and overgrown vegetation. I don't know. Maybe it was spontaneous combustion. Well, that's so what do you do when you have the two people running? And they're not only really bad at their jobs, but one of the reasons they're really bad is they don't care. And the lever admit they don't care. And no one's going to force them to admit they don't care. So what do you do? And a big percentage of the votes are union votes. And the union people don't care just as long as they get their big fat union raise. Talk more. Can't buy AM640 more stimulating talk radio. John Cobalt show. And the hiccups are gone. Did you do what I told you to do? No, but I want to get some, I didn't have any sugar on me. But what did you do? What did you do? I just, well, you ran out of here and get crazy person. So I guess you don't want to tell us. It's the long explanation. I'll tell you later. Believe me, you don't want to hear it right now. Okay. You're right. Never mind. Do you remember a few months back? I happened in March because I know you always get spooked by air crash stories. Yeah. Remember the fire truck that crashed into the plane on the tarmac at LaGuardia airport in New York City. And it killed the pilot and the co-pilot of the plane. This, this fire truck was responding to a different incident and and crossed right across the landing lanes crashed into the nose of this air Canada plane and killed the pilot and the co-pilot. The reason for this is two air traffic controllers left work early right before the collision. So the two controllers who were left had no backup and no assistance and they needed it. Leaving early is called an early shove. According to traffic controllers and these two characters took an early shove. It long standing practice in the industry. I guess when you're feeling tired and you want to go home. I'm tired. Can I go home? I mean, my job is a lot less important than an air traffic controller. And they killed two pilots and there were six other people who got introduced. Well, the fire truck killed the two pilots because the air traffic controllers had gone home. Are they going to fire those two. An early shove. That's that I never heard of this. What did you feel guilty living? Yes, 100%. I mean, haven't we all, if we have responsible jobs, we've been on waste our days as social media influencers, right? But if we have responsible jobs and you leave early, and that gives too much work to somebody else, or some project doesn't get done, I don't know. I feel bad about that. I know you do. I do. Yeah. These people are landing planes. The most important. What are the most important jobs? Where people actually died. And it's like, I'm not into it anymore. Can I have an early shove? I'm going to talk. What the hell? I mean, the work ethic has just totally evaporated. It's just gone ever since COVID ever since COVID. Yeah, this would not have happened before COVID. There'd be plane crashes or collisions, but not because of an early shove. Although, I don't know. They said it's been going on for years. Well, it shouldn't been going on for years. It shouldn't go for a day. Crazy. We got a special segment coming up right after four o'clock. And I want to give you a preview here. I've looked at this film, and it's just terrific. It's premiering at the Man Chinese Theatre today. And it's done by Michael Geer. And he's an award woman, a winning filmmaker. It's entitled The Heroism and Resiliency of 9/11 from tragedy to triumph. And watch this film. And it's about the people who were involved in the 9/11 crashes. What their lives are like 25 years later. Survivors, rescuers. It's really moving. And I was really mesmerized by this thing. I'm going to play a trailer and, and then we're going to do an interview right after that. This is, this is heroism and resiliency of 9/11. Listen to this trailer. September 11, 2001 was a day of unimaginable terror and unshakable courage. And the face of devastation, humanity's strength and resilience shine through. The heroism and resiliency of 9/11 features the inspiring true stories of courage, unity and a perseverance that emerged from one of the darkest days in American history. Through the eyes of first responders, survivors and ordinary citizens who became extraordinary heroes, this documentary honors the selflessness and bravery that defined a generation. Every card, chief of staff to President George W. Bush was by the President's side, offering a first-hand account of leadership under pressure. At the Federal Reserve, Vice Chairman Roger Ferguson took swift action to stabilize a financial system, averting what could have been economic catastrophe. With low and Manhattan cutoff, over 500,000 people were evacuated by boat in the largest maritime rescue in history. At the Pentagon, Flight 77 struck the heart of U.S. defense amid the chaos heroes emerged, rushing into danger to save others. Passengers aboard Flight 93 fought back against the terrorists and prevented the plane from reaching its target, saving countless lives on the ground. The film features these stories and were the real-life accounts, archival footage and dramatized reenactments. The heroism and resiliency of 9/11 is not just a tribute to those we lost, but a celebration of the endomitable spirit that rose from the ashes showcasing the resilience of those who rebuilt their lives and transformed grief into advocates. It is a story of hope, proving that even in tragedy, the inspiration can be found in the courage and compassion of everyday people. And we're going to talk with the filmmaker Michael Geier right after Debra's news. It's already received five best documentary honors. It's the heroism and resiliency of 9/11, 25th anniversary coming up in just a couple of weeks and this is quite a striking documentary. And we'll talk about it coming up next segment, Debra Mark Live in the KFI 24 hour newsroom.
