DEI Leadership at It's Finest-Newsom & Bass Blame Everyone but Themselves FOR THEIR INCOMPETENCE! · The Ben Ferguson Podcast

• 0:01
  Speaker 1: The blame game is.
• 0:02
  Speaker 2: The big headline is elected officials are teaming up in
• 0:05
  Speaker 2: groups now to defend themselves while others that they used
• 0:09
  Speaker 2: to be best friends with are now pointing the finger
• 0:12
  Speaker 2: at them. This has taken on an entire life of
• 0:16
  Speaker 2: its own.
• 0:17
  Speaker 3: Now.
• 0:17
  Speaker 2: The reality is you've got a twenty plus thousand five
• 0:21
  Speaker 2: acre fire only eight percent contained as we speak. Five
• 0:26
  Speaker 2: thousand plus structures have now been destroyed. They're expecting that
• 0:30
  Speaker 2: number to continue to rise. And we are now seeing
• 0:33
  Speaker 2: actors and actresses and Hollywood producers who are now angry
• 0:37
  Speaker 2: that their homes have been burned to the ground because
• 0:40
  Speaker 2: of government incompetency. Now, the democratic mismanagement is really coming
• 0:47
  Speaker 2: further into focus at this hour, and that is what
• 0:51
  Speaker 2: is erupted into this blame game of one person saying
• 0:54
  Speaker 2: this is your fault. No, no, this is your fault.
• 0:57
  Speaker 2: A Pacific Palisades resis we also now know for a fact,
• 1:03
  Speaker 2: was closed when wildfires swept through the area and devastated
• 1:07
  Speaker 2: the community.
• 1:08
  Speaker 1: Officials have officially told the Los Angeles Times.
• 1:12
  Speaker 2: The Sana Yents Reservoir is connected to the Los Angeles
• 1:16
  Speaker 2: water supply system, and authority said it was shut down
• 1:20
  Speaker 2: for repairs at the time the fire erupted.
• 1:23
  Speaker 1: What does that mean?
• 1:24
  Speaker 2: Well, it left one hundred and seventeen million gallon water
• 1:29
  Speaker 2: storage complex empty in the heart of the area where
• 1:33
  Speaker 2: these fires are the worst. How do we know this?
• 1:38
  Speaker 2: This again coming from the La Times. Their tweet put
• 1:42
  Speaker 2: it perfectly. A reservoir in the Palisades that holds one
• 1:46
  Speaker 2: hundred and seventeen million gallons of water was all fined
• 1:49
  Speaker 2: this month for previously scheduled maintenance. It was empty when
• 1:53
  Speaker 2: the fires exploded. Again, I'm getting this from the La Times.
• 1:58
  Speaker 2: Why do I keep saying that because the White House
• 2:01
  Speaker 2: wants you to believe in Gavin Newsom, want you to
• 2:03
  Speaker 2: believe that anything that I just told you is gotta
• 2:06
  Speaker 2: be a lie, disinformation or misinformation. Which brings me back
• 2:11
  Speaker 2: to what I said a moment ago about the blame game.
• 2:14
  Speaker 2: Joe Biden, Kamala Harris sitting in the Oval office looking
• 2:18
  Speaker 2: at a flat screen TV that they've rolled into the
• 2:20
  Speaker 2: Oval office. And on that screen you see Gavin Newsom
• 2:24
  Speaker 2: and you see Mayor Kieran of LA And what was
• 2:28
  Speaker 2: said by Joe Biden might be the most shocking thing yet.
• 2:32
  Speaker 1: Take a listen.
• 2:33
  Speaker 2: In his own words, as he said, you guys are
• 2:35
  Speaker 2: getting a bad rap.
• 2:36
  Speaker 4: The other thing is, look, you know, I think you
• 2:40
  Speaker 4: getting a bad rap.
• 2:41
  Speaker 5: I know you're getting a bad rap about these fire
• 2:43
  Speaker 5: hydrants don't have enough water in them.
• 2:45
  Speaker 3: Give me a brivige, give me a privage.
• 2:47
  Speaker 6: What's just small about.
• 2:49
  Speaker 3: Is the utilities. Understandably, what they did is they cut
• 2:53
  Speaker 3: off power because they're worried about these high tension lines
• 2:57
  Speaker 3: coming down and causing.
• 2:58
  Speaker 1: More fires than the win.
• 3:00
  Speaker 7: Right.
• 3:00
  Speaker 1: When they do that, guess what if they shut off
• 3:02
  Speaker 1: the tire.
• 3:03
  Speaker 8: Of the controls, the ability to pump the water and
• 3:06
  Speaker 8: so now they're figuring the generators here.
• 3:09
  Speaker 1: I mean, this is complicated stuff.
• 3:11
  Speaker 2: You're going to have a lot of demogogues out there
• 3:14
  Speaker 2: trying to take advantage of it.
• 3:15
  Speaker 1: But you're doing the right thing.
• 3:17
  Speaker 7: We're going to get it done. God willing.
• 3:19
  Speaker 2: You're doing the right thing, folks, God Willing. We're gonna
• 3:23
  Speaker 2: get it done.
• 3:23
  Speaker 1: Now.
• 3:24
  Speaker 2: Did the President just lie to you? Absolutely he lied
• 3:27
  Speaker 2: to you. Are there a whole lot of fire hydrants
• 3:29
  Speaker 2: that aren't working?
• 3:30
  Speaker 1: Yes?
• 3:30
  Speaker 2: And I love when I get to use the liberal
• 3:32
  Speaker 2: medium to prove my point. This is NBC News's own
• 3:37
  Speaker 2: reporting on the ground listen.
• 3:39
  Speaker 7: Apartment building in gulfed in flames. I saw the fire
• 3:43
  Speaker 7: inch and pull up. This afternoon a fire captain have
• 3:45
  Speaker 7: one of his firefighters attach a hose to a hydrant,
• 3:48
  Speaker 7: and that hose didn't fill up. Alex and I asked
• 3:51
  Speaker 7: the captain, out of every ten hydrants you attached to today,
• 3:55
  Speaker 7: on average, how many are you getting full water from?
• 3:58
  Speaker 7: He says little to none. And it was at that
• 4:01
  Speaker 7: point that really the whole crew stopped, looked up at
• 4:04
  Speaker 7: this apartment building, and they realize there was nothing they
• 4:07
  Speaker 7: could do.
• 4:07
  Speaker 2: So clearly the President of the United States of America
• 4:10
  Speaker 2: was lying to you, so was the mayor, and so
• 4:13
  Speaker 2: was the governor as they were putting out this propaganda. Now,
• 4:16
  Speaker 2: I said at the very beginning, what is happening right
• 4:18
  Speaker 2: now is people are choosing, like who their friends are
• 4:21
  Speaker 2: and who their enemies are in this blame game. Many
• 4:24
  Speaker 2: of these people used to be friends. Now they're trying
• 4:27
  Speaker 2: to save their own ABS's. I'll give you a perfect
• 4:30
  Speaker 2: example of that. This just coming in as we're recording
• 4:34
  Speaker 2: the Los Angeles Fire Department chief. You know, this is
• 4:37
  Speaker 2: the lesbian woman that was going to hire a bunch
• 4:40
  Speaker 2: of lesbians and gays and trans people to over a
• 4:43
  Speaker 2: three year initiative to completely change how they did firefighting.
• 4:49
  Speaker 2: And then they hired another woman who was gay below her,
• 4:52
  Speaker 2: and another woman below her.
• 4:53
  Speaker 1: That was gay.
• 4:54
  Speaker 2: So the top three people and the Los Angeles Fire
• 4:57
  Speaker 2: Department are gay women. Well, now she's the finger saying
• 5:01
  Speaker 2: this isn't my fault that I was doing DEI, this
• 5:05
  Speaker 2: is the fault of others. The Los Angeles Fire Department
• 5:08
  Speaker 2: Chief Kristin Crowley turns on Los Angeles' leadership, saying, quote,
• 5:14
  Speaker 2: they failed her. This might be one of the most
• 5:17
  Speaker 2: remarkable interviews I've ever heard.
• 5:20
  Speaker 1: Listen, it's period.
• 5:21
  Speaker 9: Did the City of Los Angeles fail you and your
• 5:23
  Speaker 9: department and our city?
• 5:24
  Speaker 10: It's my job to stand up as a chief and
• 5:28
  Speaker 10: exactly say, justifiably what the fire department needs to operate
• 5:33
  Speaker 10: to meet the demands of the community.
• 5:35
  Speaker 7: Did they fail you?
• 5:36
  Speaker 10: That is our job and I tell you that's why
• 5:38
  Speaker 10: I'm here. So let's get us what we need so
• 5:40
  Speaker 10: firefighters can do their jobs.
• 5:41
  Speaker 9: Did they fail you, yes, Chief Kristin Crowley. I believe
• 5:48
  Speaker 9: the anchors wanted to ask a question. Yes, had some comments.
• 5:52
  Speaker 11: We do If you could please ask her regarding the
• 5:56
  Speaker 11: Times article that came out that the Santa Inez reservoir
• 5:59
  Speaker 11: was close to her pairs and it was empty.
• 6:01
  Speaker 1: One hundred and.
• 6:01
  Speaker 11: Seventeen million gallons of water could have been used in
• 6:04
  Speaker 11: this fight.
• 6:05
  Speaker 9: The question is about the Santa Inez reservoir being empty.
• 6:10
  Speaker 1: There's been a lot of questions about that. Sure.
• 6:12
  Speaker 10: So my stance on this is when a firefighter comes
• 6:17
  Speaker 10: up to a hydrant, we expect there's gonna be water.
• 6:19
  Speaker 10: We don't control the water supply. Our firefighters are there
• 6:23
  Speaker 10: to protect lives and property and it make sure that
• 6:25
  Speaker 10: we're properly trained and equipped.
• 6:28
  Speaker 1: That's my position on this.
• 6:29
  Speaker 10: So if there's no water, I don't know how the
• 6:31
  Speaker 10: water gets to the hydrants.
• 6:33
  Speaker 1: Please hold on a second.
• 6:34
  Speaker 2: You're just telling me that you're the fire chief and
• 6:38
  Speaker 2: you're in charge, by the way of making sure that
• 6:40
  Speaker 2: the fire hydrants work correctly. You're in charge of the testing,
• 6:44
  Speaker 2: which you canceled recently because of budget cuts, is what
• 6:47
  Speaker 2: you said. But you're telling me you don't know how
• 6:50
  Speaker 2: the fire how the water gets there. Your entire job
• 6:54
  Speaker 2: revolves around water going to a hydrant that you go
• 6:59
  Speaker 2: out and you test, And now you're telling.
• 7:03
  Speaker 1: Me I don't know anything about water. I have the water.
• 7:05
  Speaker 2: All I know is when I pull up there, I
• 7:06
  Speaker 2: expect there to be water there.
• 7:08
  Speaker 1: But I don't know nothing else about nothing.
• 7:10
  Speaker 2: This is what wokeness does, folks. This is what a
• 7:13
  Speaker 2: DEI hire sounds like. This is also And I'm gonna
• 7:17
  Speaker 2: hit pause here because I'm going to go back to
• 7:19
  Speaker 2: something else that happened in the blame game. You want
• 7:21
  Speaker 2: to who started the blame game now that you have
• 7:24
  Speaker 2: a little bit of context.
• 7:25
  Speaker 1: Gavin Newsom, how do we know this?
• 7:27
  Speaker 2: Gavin Newsom on TV with houses behind him on fire
• 7:31
  Speaker 2: and there are five raging wildfires in La County, four
• 7:35
  Speaker 2: of them at the time.
• 7:36
  Speaker 1: He said this with zero percent containment. And what does
• 7:40
  Speaker 1: Gavin Newsom do when he's talking to Anderson Cooper.
• 7:42
  Speaker 2: He throws his hands up in the air like you
• 7:45
  Speaker 2: just don't care and says, well, this is not my
• 7:48
  Speaker 2: problem when it comes to all these issues locally, Listen, what.
• 7:52
  Speaker 1: Is the situation with water? Obviously in the helsage ran
• 7:55
  Speaker 1: out last night in the hydrants. I was started the
• 7:56
  Speaker 1: firefighter in this block. They left because there was no
• 7:59
  Speaker 1: water in the hydrant here.
• 8:00
  Speaker 3: The local folks are trying to figure that out.
• 8:03
  Speaker 2: I mean, just when local folks gotta figure that out,
• 8:05
  Speaker 2: gonna figure that out.
• 8:06
  Speaker 1: Now my problem, I'm just a governor. I'm now the
• 8:08
  Speaker 1: water gets here.
• 8:09
  Speaker 2: So the fire chief doesn't know how the water gets
• 8:11
  Speaker 2: to the fire hydrant. And the governor says, not my problem.
• 8:15
  Speaker 2: You got to ask the local people that I'm just
• 8:17
  Speaker 2: a governor of California.
• 8:18
  Speaker 1: Where we do with wildfires and earthquakes. I don't know.
• 8:21
  Speaker 2: You're gonna have to ask some local folks. And you
• 8:23
  Speaker 2: notice how the blame game got started. Keep listening to
• 8:26
  Speaker 2: his logic.
• 8:26
  Speaker 3: You have a system that it's not dissimilar to what
• 8:28
  Speaker 3: we've seen in other extraordinarily large scale fires, whether it
• 8:32
  Speaker 3: be pipe electricity, whether it just be the complete overwhelm
• 8:36
  Speaker 3: of the system. I mean, those hydrants are typical for
• 8:38
  Speaker 3: two or three fires, maybe one fire. You have something
• 8:41
  Speaker 3: at this scale. But again that's gonna be determined by
• 8:43
  Speaker 3: the local.
• 8:44
  Speaker 1: Got to be determined by the local. So let's just recap.
• 8:47
  Speaker 2: Joe Biden Mox reports of any empty fire hydrants and says,
• 8:50
  Speaker 2: I know you're getting a bad rap talking to the
• 8:54
  Speaker 2: governor and talking to the mayor about these fire hydrants. Quote,
• 8:57
  Speaker 2: they don't have enough water in them, give me a break.
• 9:00
  Speaker 2: The fire captain then comes out and says, hold on
• 9:02
  Speaker 2: a second, most of the hydrants are empty. I don't
• 9:04
  Speaker 2: know how the water gets there. And then we circle
• 9:06
  Speaker 2: back to the governor. He's like, well, I don't know
• 9:07
  Speaker 2: how the water works and how the water gets the hydrant,
• 9:09
  Speaker 2: so you need to talk to local officials, as he
• 9:11
  Speaker 2: throws his hands up.
• 9:12
  Speaker 1: Not my problem.
• 9:13
  Speaker 2: All of these people, democrats, all of them. I want
• 9:17
  Speaker 2: to go back to the Los Angeles Fire Department Chief
• 9:20
  Speaker 2: Kristen Crowley. Not only did she say a moment ago
• 9:22
  Speaker 2: that I played for you that yes, the Los Angeles
• 9:24
  Speaker 2: City did fail her, but then she went on to
• 9:27
  Speaker 2: also say this.
• 9:29
  Speaker 10: Refer that to DWP or whomever controls that part. But
• 9:33
  Speaker 10: I can tell you the resiliency of our firefighters. If
• 9:36
  Speaker 10: there's no water, they're gonna go find water. They're going
• 9:38
  Speaker 10: to figure out a way to do the best they
• 9:40
  Speaker 10: can with what they've got in a very dynamic situation.
• 9:45
  Speaker 2: So to be clear, what she's saying is, hey, I
• 9:47
  Speaker 2: don't know how the water gets the hydrants.
• 9:50
  Speaker 1: That's not my job.
• 9:51
  Speaker 2: Apparently that's a puff above her pay grade to like
• 9:53
  Speaker 2: know how that works. And then she says it's the
• 9:57
  Speaker 2: LA mayor and the governor's fault that they let her down.
• 10:01
  Speaker 2: And then she says, as it's scorched to earth, but
• 10:04
  Speaker 2: we're gonna find water, like we're resilient.
• 10:08
  Speaker 1: Like that's these are such.
• 10:09
  Speaker 2: This is not some motivational poster on a wall in
• 10:12
  Speaker 2: the nineteen nineties in a dentist's office. Okay, Like this
• 10:16
  Speaker 2: is real life. People's lives are at stake, people are dying.
• 10:20
  Speaker 2: More than ten have died is the number we've heard
• 10:22
  Speaker 2: so far. Everyone's life out there has been ruined. And
• 10:24
  Speaker 2: you guys are sitting there like I don't know how
• 10:26
  Speaker 2: the water gets there. I don't understand it.
• 10:29
  Speaker 9: And I know you express concerns that those DWP hydrants
• 10:32
  Speaker 9: would not be inspected thoroughly because of the budget cuts.
• 10:37
  Speaker 10: That is something to discuss, and we're going to look
• 10:41
  Speaker 10: into that in regard to how we can ensure there's
• 10:44
  Speaker 10: going to be water when we need it. But in
• 10:47
  Speaker 10: the end, you know, I'm going to defer that to
• 10:49
  Speaker 10: DWP and whomever else controls the supply I can guarante.
• 10:53
  Speaker 2: And whomever else controls by because I don't even understand
• 10:55
  Speaker 2: where the water comes from, Like they're all Democrats, folks.
• 11:00
  Speaker 2: None of them are going to take responsibility for this disaster.
• 11:03
  Speaker 2: And if you are a citizen in California or anywhere
• 11:07
  Speaker 2: else and you listening to this and you wonder why
• 11:10
  Speaker 2: bad things happen when you elect incompetent leaders, this is
• 11:14
  Speaker 2: your reminder that it actually does matter who you vote for,
• 11:18
  Speaker 2: because you've got multiple problems here. You have a governor
• 11:21
  Speaker 2: that was incompetent. You have an LA mayor who's fire
• 11:24
  Speaker 2: budget cuts preceded the wildfires. You've got empty reservoirs when
• 11:28
  Speaker 2: you know this is the season where fires can break out.
• 11:31
  Speaker 2: You have total mismanagement of the forestry and everything around you.
• 11:39
  Speaker 2: You've got dams that you got rid of, you got
• 11:41
  Speaker 2: water that you purposely let run off into the ocean,
• 11:44
  Speaker 2: And the Los Angeles Fire Department chief said she had
• 11:47
  Speaker 2: a three year plan to get you a bunch of
• 11:48
  Speaker 2: gays and lesbians and.
• 11:49
  Speaker 1: Trainees in there.
• 11:50
  Speaker 2: And then the assistant police chief even did a video
• 11:53
  Speaker 2: telling you that if you're in a spot where you
• 11:56
  Speaker 2: need a woman to carry you out of a house,
• 11:58
  Speaker 2: that's your fault for being in a bad spot.
• 12:01
  Speaker 1: Well, yeah, my house on fire.
• 12:03
  Speaker 2: These are the people that you elected like this was predictable.
• 12:07
  Speaker 1: Keep listening to you that.
• 12:09
  Speaker 10: When our firefighters showed up on that day with what
• 12:12
  Speaker 10: they had, they did absolutely everything they could do to
• 12:17
  Speaker 10: rescue and to save people's wives and property. And that's
• 12:21
  Speaker 10: the bottom line. Now, let's get them what they need
• 12:24
  Speaker 10: to do their jobs, and so.
• 12:25
  Speaker 9: Let's get them water, Chief, because I was with your
• 12:27
  Speaker 9: firefighters and they literally were watching a house burn down
• 12:31
  Speaker 9: with pain in their eyes, not being able to do
• 12:33
  Speaker 9: anything except pull put water from a swimming pool to
• 12:38
  Speaker 9: try to save a nearby structure that wasn't burning, and
• 12:40
  Speaker 9: literally watching a house burn to the ground because they
• 12:43
  Speaker 9: had no water.
• 12:44
  Speaker 1: That's exactly right.
• 12:45
  Speaker 10: But did they continue to work and did they continue
• 12:48
  Speaker 10: to do what they had to do to do the
• 12:50
  Speaker 10: best they could with what they had.
• 12:51
  Speaker 9: Yes, keep follow up me. Thank you very much for
• 12:55
  Speaker 9: talking to us. We appreciate it.
• 12:56
  Speaker 12: I believe we have a follow up question at this
• 12:58
  Speaker 12: question on that reservoir issue. Is the fire department aware
• 13:01
  Speaker 12: of when these resources are depleted? Just like that reservoir
• 13:05
  Speaker 12: had no water, Was she aware of that fact that
• 13:08
  Speaker 12: it was under construction and there was no water there?
• 13:14
  Speaker 9: Sandra Endol, one of our angers, wants to know if
• 13:16
  Speaker 9: the Department is advised that the Santa Ynez Reservoir was
• 13:19
  Speaker 9: going to be emptied.
• 13:21
  Speaker 1: Were you aware that there was no water there? No,
• 13:23
  Speaker 1: we weren't aware of that.
• 13:25
  Speaker 10: They don't have to advise you, not that I'm aware of.
• 13:27
  Speaker 9: No, So you had no idea that there wasn't neither
• 13:30
  Speaker 9: no such needed, such needed resource.
• 13:32
  Speaker 1: No, we weren't, all right, Keith Kristian Krau.
• 13:36
  Speaker 2: I mean, it's amazing, by the way, I love how
• 13:38
  Speaker 2: she's like all I do every day is I just
• 13:40
  Speaker 2: wake up and fight fires, and I put my hose
• 13:42
  Speaker 2: up to them fire hydrants, and I just you know,
• 13:45
  Speaker 2: they're just supposed to be.
• 13:46
  Speaker 1: Some water there. I don't know how to do anything else.
• 13:48
  Speaker 2: By the way, I got you a bunch of lesbians
• 13:49
  Speaker 2: down here because we do some dyah stuff. You want
• 13:52
  Speaker 2: to know what they did do? Let me tell you
• 13:54
  Speaker 2: about some facts. Because I don't think she's this stupid.
• 13:57
  Speaker 2: I think she just thinks that she acts stupid. She's
• 14:00
  Speaker 2: might get away with this. This is what they did
• 14:04
  Speaker 2: to firemen, and this is everybody's fault in leadership there
• 14:07
  Speaker 2: in California. Firemen that didn't get the COVID vaccine they said,
• 14:12
  Speaker 2: you're fired, you can't work here.
• 14:15
  Speaker 1: Let me say that again.
• 14:17
  Speaker 2: Firemen and women who refused, even on religious grounds, to
• 14:22
  Speaker 2: not get the COVID vaccine, they were told, go home,
• 14:28
  Speaker 2: you are fired. How do we know this well, Fox
• 14:32
  Speaker 2: eleven and Santa Anna had the story when it happened.
• 14:35
  Speaker 6: After nearly fifteen years of serving with the LA Fire Department,
• 14:39
  Speaker 6: he was terminated for refusing to take the COVID vaccine
• 14:43
  Speaker 6: without applying for a religious or medical exception.
• 14:46
  Speaker 5: Look, everybody, everybody in this state of feel good land,
• 14:50
  Speaker 5: of newsom land, believes that if they were in Germany
• 14:53
  Speaker 5: in nineteen thirty five, they'd be pushing against the Nazis.
• 14:56
  Speaker 1: They'd go to try to kill Hitler.
• 14:58
  Speaker 5: I suggest if you were involved in firing that fire department,
• 15:01
  Speaker 5: that fireman, you would have been a prison guard in
• 15:05
  Speaker 5: nineteen thirty Germany. And you need everybody that reported their
• 15:09
  Speaker 5: neighbors or who took an issue with somebody who was
• 15:12
  Speaker 5: just asking questions or for standing up for their civil liberties.
• 15:15
  Speaker 5: You must examine yourself and realize you would be a
• 15:18
  Speaker 5: prison guard, not somebody fighting against the Nazis. You are
• 15:22
  Speaker 5: in the delusion. You are part of the problem. You're
• 15:25
  Speaker 5: in the mass formation, and you must fight against that
• 15:28
  Speaker 5: and think independently and defend the founding principles of this
• 15:32
  Speaker 5: country which are designed as a buttress against exactly this
• 15:37
  Speaker 5: kind of thing. And thank god it got us through this.
• 15:41
  Speaker 2: By the way, that's doctor Drew that was giving that
• 15:43
  Speaker 2: commentary at the end quote if you were involved in
• 15:45
  Speaker 2: the firing of that fireman, right, because that was a
• 15:48
  Speaker 2: sanctimonious time. Oh well, if you won't get the vaccine,
• 15:52
  Speaker 2: then we're going to fire you. You would have been
• 15:54
  Speaker 2: a prison guard in the nineteen thirties Germany. You were
• 15:57
  Speaker 2: in the delusion. You are part of the problem. He
• 15:59
  Speaker 2: is absolutely right, this is part of the problem. So
• 16:03
  Speaker 2: we go back to the fire chief and you look
• 16:07
  Speaker 2: at what she said, Well, it's their fault. They're the
• 16:11
  Speaker 2: ones that didn't give me what I needed. Yes, they
• 16:14
  Speaker 2: failed me. And then you go back to the conversation
• 16:18
  Speaker 2: as Democrat Governor Gavin Newsom, and this is my I
• 16:22
  Speaker 2: almost led the show with this, and I decided to
• 16:25
  Speaker 2: use at the end because I think it's more powerful
• 16:27
  Speaker 2: after I go through this blame game. The wildfires in
• 16:31
  Speaker 2: southern California have burned tens of thousands of acres, They've
• 16:35
  Speaker 2: killed more than ten people, They've caused more than sixty
• 16:37
  Speaker 2: billion in damage, and they destroyed more than ten thousand structures.
• 16:41
  Speaker 2: All of those numbers, we are fearful are going to
• 16:44
  Speaker 2: go up. And what was Gavin Newsom's number one thing
• 16:47
  Speaker 2: he was talking to President about in the Oval Office
• 16:50
  Speaker 2: via satellite link today.
• 16:53
  Speaker 1: You want to know what the number one thing he
• 16:54
  Speaker 1: was worried about.
• 16:55
  Speaker 2: Gavin Newsom is angry that they are spreading lies about
• 17:00
  Speaker 2: him on the internet, he says, and we need to
• 17:03
  Speaker 2: crack down on that, not actually put out the fires
• 17:05
  Speaker 2: that are raging. As he's saying this, not asking for
• 17:09
  Speaker 2: you know, like water or tankers or more airplanes or
• 17:13
  Speaker 2: National guardsmen or whatever whatever.
• 17:15
  Speaker 1: Government.
• 17:15
  Speaker 2: I said, no, no, hey, miss President, my name's Gavin Newsom,
• 17:19
  Speaker 2: and I'm asking by an administration to use the federal
• 17:21
  Speaker 2: government to go after what he claims is disinformation about
• 17:26
  Speaker 2: him making him look bad, because remember, Gavin Newsom wants
• 17:29
  Speaker 2: to be president.
• 17:31
  Speaker 4: I ask you, We've got to deal with this misinformation.
• 17:34
  Speaker 4: There were hurricane force wins of miss and disinformation lies.
• 17:38
  Speaker 4: People want to divide this country and we're gonna have
• 17:42
  Speaker 4: to address that as well. And it breaks my heart
• 17:45
  Speaker 4: as people are suffering and struggling that we're up against
• 17:49
  Speaker 4: those hurricane force forces as well. And that's just a
• 17:53
  Speaker 4: point of personal privilege that I share that with you
• 17:55
  Speaker 4: because it infects real people that are out there. People
• 17:59
  Speaker 4: I meet every single day, people the mayor has been
• 18:01
  Speaker 4: meeting with, and they're having conversations that are not the
• 18:05
  Speaker 4: typical conversations you'd have at this time, and you wonder
• 18:08
  Speaker 4: where this stuff comes from. And it's very damaging as well.
• 18:11
  Speaker 4: But we're here to get.
• 18:13
  Speaker 1: The job done.
• 18:15
  Speaker 2: It doesn't sound like. It doesn't sound like you're there
• 18:18
  Speaker 2: to get the job done. Sounds like you want the
• 18:21
  Speaker 2: federal government to come in start locking people up who
• 18:25
  Speaker 2: say things that you don't like about you, calling them
• 18:29
  Speaker 2: hurricane force winds of lies about me on the internet.
• 18:34
  Speaker 1: You want to know why.
• 18:35
  Speaker 2: They hadn't gotten the fires out yet. Maybe it's because
• 18:37
  Speaker 2: of this guy. Maybe it's because of all the people
• 18:39
  Speaker 2: I just played. Maybe it's because they care more about
• 18:42
  Speaker 2: them being criticized and then when to lock up the
• 18:44
  Speaker 2: people that are criticizing them than they actually do.
• 18:47
  Speaker 1: About doing their damn job.
• 18:50
  Speaker 2: You know, you listen to just some of the audio
• 18:52
  Speaker 2: I played for you, whether it's Newsome or the president
• 18:56
  Speaker 2: or the mayor. And there's part of this it just
• 18:59
  Speaker 2: sounds like it's like a spoof, a scene out of
• 19:03
  Speaker 2: the TV show The Office. You listen to the last
• 19:06
  Speaker 2: the Los Angeles Fire Department Assistant Chief Kristin Larson, and
• 19:10
  Speaker 2: this again goes back to the to the blame game.
• 19:13
  Speaker 2: Here this is what she said on camera about her
• 19:17
  Speaker 2: job and DEI and having lesbian tired.
• 19:21
  Speaker 13: You want to see somebody that responds to your house,
• 19:24
  Speaker 13: your emergency, whether it's a medical call or a fire call,
• 19:27
  Speaker 13: that looks like you.
• 19:28
  Speaker 2: That's not true, by the way. That is the DEI
• 19:31
  Speaker 2: line that people want you to believe. When I call
• 19:35
  Speaker 2: nine one one or anybody I know and they're having
• 19:37
  Speaker 2: a heart attack, the house is on fire, by the way,
• 19:40
  Speaker 2: I've had my house on fire before. My house is
• 19:42
  Speaker 2: on fire. We lost part of our backyard a couple
• 19:44
  Speaker 2: of years ago. I assure you, when nine one one
• 19:46
  Speaker 2: was called, I didn't say, hey, can you send some
• 19:48
  Speaker 2: white guys that look like me?
• 19:50
  Speaker 1: When I was in my shooting, I did not go
• 19:52
  Speaker 1: to the police.
• 19:53
  Speaker 2: In fact, the first police officer I went to was
• 19:55
  Speaker 2: African American, and I promise you. I didn't even notice
• 19:58
  Speaker 2: he was African American because he's a guy with a badge.
• 20:00
  Speaker 1: He's a good guy with a gun.
• 20:02
  Speaker 2: I didn't go, excuse me, officer, can you point me
• 20:04
  Speaker 2: in the direction of a white police officer that looks
• 20:06
  Speaker 2: like me. When your house is in the middle of
• 20:09
  Speaker 2: a inferno and a fireman shows up, you're not like,
• 20:13
  Speaker 2: thank god you're Asian, because otherwise I knew I was
• 20:17
  Speaker 2: screwed today and we weren't gonna get this fire out.
• 20:19
  Speaker 2: But now that you're Asian and I'm Asian and you're here,
• 20:22
  Speaker 2: we're gonna figure this out.
• 20:24
  Speaker 1: You think some guy whose house is burning down the Hispanic.
• 20:26
  Speaker 2: He's like, no, no, no, no, no, gringos, no, I want,
• 20:30
  Speaker 2: I want, I want. If you don't speak Spanish, you
• 20:32
  Speaker 2: ain't putting out this fire on my house is burning down.
• 20:35
  Speaker 2: We're gonna let this burn, this house burn to the ground.
• 20:39
  Speaker 2: But the first thing she says there, that's when they.
• 20:41
  Speaker 1: Should have fired her.
• 20:43
  Speaker 2: But this is what the people chose, and I respect
• 20:45
  Speaker 2: the people, but if you do it again, it's on you,
• 20:48
  Speaker 2: Like this is the warning of this idea that you
• 20:51
  Speaker 2: can like com buy out of the world into some
• 20:53
  Speaker 2: sort of like change it into, oh, I need to
• 20:56
  Speaker 2: have exactly seventeen Asian people here and then seventeen white
• 21:01
  Speaker 2: people here in twenty three African Americans and eleven you know,
• 21:05
  Speaker 2: whatevers like, and don't forget the Native Americans are gonna
• 21:08
  Speaker 2: have just a small crew. If and a Native Americans
• 21:10
  Speaker 2: house gets on fire, do you send you That is insanity,
• 21:14
  Speaker 2: That is mentally delusional. It cost people their lives and
• 21:18
  Speaker 2: their homes. But the LA Fire Department assistant Chip's like,
• 21:21
  Speaker 2: I'm a lesbian. The person I'm bosso lesbian person, Malome's
• 21:24
  Speaker 2: a lesbian. We got a bunch of lesbians up in here,
• 21:26
  Speaker 2: by the way, I know there's a lot of gay
• 21:28
  Speaker 2: lesbians out in California. I don't know if the top
• 21:31
  Speaker 2: three spots is proportional, if that's what you're going for.
• 21:34
  Speaker 2: And I'm being serious when I say that, like, if
• 21:36
  Speaker 2: this is all about you know exactly, like how many
• 21:39
  Speaker 2: lesbian houses are there out there and palisades that burned
• 21:42
  Speaker 2: down compared to straight houses? Was the top three people
• 21:45
  Speaker 2: all lesbians? Is that adequately for what they like? For
• 21:49
  Speaker 2: the exact proportions that she's demanding. Well, I mean, and
• 21:53
  Speaker 2: let me, let me really break this down. If you're gay,
• 21:56
  Speaker 2: do you only want a gay officer showing up if
• 21:58
  Speaker 2: someone's about to kill you?
• 21:59
  Speaker 4: Or race?
• 22:00
  Speaker 2: If you're a lesbian, do you only want a lesbian
• 22:03
  Speaker 2: to come and show up if you're having a heart attack? Like,
• 22:05
  Speaker 2: I need a lesbian doctor. Oh no, you're a straight doctor. Sorry,
• 22:07
  Speaker 2: you can't work on my partner here because she's a lesbian.
• 22:10
  Speaker 2: I need a lesbian over here. Well she may die,
• 22:13
  Speaker 2: so be it. But I need you to find me
• 22:14
  Speaker 2: a lesbian. Excuse me, nurse, you're Asian.
• 22:17
  Speaker 1: You don't look like me.
• 22:18
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 22:19
  Speaker 2: I need a white lesbian over here right now for
• 22:22
  Speaker 2: my partner.
• 22:22
  Speaker 1: I demand it.
• 22:23
  Speaker 2: Or a black lesbian right now if you're black or
• 22:25
  Speaker 2: Asian lesbian, because apparently you got to look like.
• 22:29
  Speaker 1: Me to do the job that I need you to do.
• 22:31
  Speaker 1: That is insanity.
• 22:33
  Speaker 13: It gives that person a little bit more ease knowing
• 22:35
  Speaker 13: that somebody might understand their situation better. Is she strong
• 22:39
  Speaker 13: enough to do this? Or you couldn't carry my husband
• 22:41
  Speaker 13: out of a fire, in which my response is he
• 22:43
  Speaker 13: got himself from the wrong place. If I have to
• 22:45
  Speaker 13: carry him.
• 22:46
  Speaker 2: Out of a fire, he got himself in a wrong
• 22:49
  Speaker 2: place like my house, my house on fire.
• 22:51
  Speaker 1: I guess I'm in the wrong place. Let me burn.
• 22:53
  Speaker 2: Thanks for coming, Lesbian, thanks for being there, lesbian assistant
• 22:56
  Speaker 2: fire chief. Just no, no, no, don't come get me. Don't
• 22:58
  Speaker 2: come now. No, it's my fault. I'm in the wrong place.
• 23:03
  Speaker 2: I'm in my home that's on fire. That is my fault.
• 23:06
  Speaker 2: It is my fault that I'm trapped in my home,
• 23:09
  Speaker 2: in my fire, And that is my fault that I
• 23:12
  Speaker 2: am here right now, and I'm sorry.
• 23:14
  Speaker 1: Just watch me burn. This was all preventable.
• 23:18
  Speaker 2: The point that I'm trying to make clearly today is
• 23:21
  Speaker 2: that all of this was preventable, every single bit of this.
• 23:26
  Speaker 2: The California politicians made deliberate decisions, all of them, the
• 23:29
  Speaker 2: liberal democrats, all of them, woke democrats, all of them
• 23:32
  Speaker 2: socialists and Marxists, and they made deliberate decisions made that
• 23:36
  Speaker 2: made this horrific disaster so much worse, so much worse.
• 23:42
  Speaker 2: The La Times quote a large reservoir in Pacific Palisades
• 23:47
  Speaker 2: that is part of the Los Angeles water supply system
• 23:50
  Speaker 2: was out of use when the wildfire destroyed thousands of
• 23:53
  Speaker 2: homes and other structures nearby.
• 23:55
  Speaker 1: That is the LA Times.
• 23:57
  Speaker 2: They have a picture of the Pacific Palisades Reservoir that
• 24:01
  Speaker 2: was off flying an empty when the firestorm exploded. The
• 24:06
  Speaker 2: La Times is also reported has also reported folks that
• 24:12
  Speaker 2: ten years ago they said they needed more reservoirs, and
• 24:15
  Speaker 2: guess what happened.
• 24:16
  Speaker 1: They didn't build a damn one of them.
• 24:18
  Speaker 2: Jenny's Quinnionez, chief executive officer and chief engineer of the
• 24:23
  Speaker 2: Los Angeles Department of Water and Power.
• 24:25
  Speaker 1: You want to know what this chick makes?
• 24:28
  Speaker 2: Seven hundred free thousand dollars a year, seven hundred and
• 24:31
  Speaker 2: fifty thousand dollars.
• 24:33
  Speaker 1: A year, and she can't even explain why there was
• 24:37
  Speaker 1: no water. The reservoir holds one.
• 24:39
  Speaker 2: Hundred and seventeen million gallons of water and would have
• 24:42
  Speaker 2: given the fire finals ample pressure to effectively fight the fire.
• 24:48
  Speaker 2: And these people make all of this money, and they
• 24:51
  Speaker 2: make all of this cash, and what happened. They can't
• 24:55
  Speaker 2: even explain how this happened. They can't even explain why
• 24:59
  Speaker 2: it happened. They all point the finger at somebody else
• 25:03
  Speaker 2: and they say it's their fault, or it's their fault,
• 25:06
  Speaker 2: or it's their fault, or it's their fault, or it's
• 25:08
  Speaker 2: their fault.
• 25:09
  Speaker 1: None of them is taking accountability for anything.
• 25:13
  Speaker 2: Now, there's two other things that have broken in the
• 25:16
  Speaker 2: last forty five minutes that I do want to add
• 25:18
  Speaker 2: in here, and I'm going to do a lot more
• 25:20
  Speaker 2: on this in another show, but I want to put
• 25:21
  Speaker 2: on your radar screen. White House is using this opportunity
• 25:25
  Speaker 2: with everything we just talked about to really hit the
• 25:29
  Speaker 2: pedal on pardons. White House Press Sretary Jean Pierre was
• 25:33
  Speaker 2: asked on Friday afternoon about pardons at the White House,
• 25:38
  Speaker 2: and they are going to load up on them, apparently
• 25:40
  Speaker 2: while you're watching la Burn listen.
• 25:43
  Speaker 14: In his interview with the USA Today Arthur Speak, the
• 25:46
  Speaker 14: President talked a bit about pream to part.
• 25:48
  Speaker 10: And say that they are still potentially on the table.
• 25:50
  Speaker 6: Can you speak clovied about the scope that he is
• 25:53
  Speaker 6: considering when it comes to that, And.
• 25:55
  Speaker 8: He's an US So we've been saying that the President
• 25:57
  Speaker 8: will have more to say, more to announce on partens
• 26:00
  Speaker 8: and commutations, so that is we have ten days to go,
• 26:04
  Speaker 8: so certainly that will be very soon that we'll make
• 26:06
  Speaker 8: those announcement. I'm not going to get into the scope.
• 26:09
  Speaker 8: I'm not going to get ahead of the president, but
• 26:11
  Speaker 8: we will be making some more additional announcements on pardons
• 26:15
  Speaker 8: and commutations before the end his term.
• 26:18
  Speaker 1: There you go, here's what we got, folks.
• 26:20
  Speaker 2: Yeah, we're gonna have preempted pardons for Biden's corrupt Democratic allies.
• 26:24
  Speaker 2: We'll be making some more additional announcements on pardons because
• 26:28
  Speaker 2: you guys are all watching what's going on out there
• 26:30
  Speaker 2: in California. Oh and while all that was happening, Mark Zuckerberg,
• 26:36
  Speaker 2: you know, the Facebook guy, He went on Joe Rogan's
• 26:39
  Speaker 2: show and this broke. Mark Zuckerberg also is now like,
• 26:43
  Speaker 2: I guess whistle blowing whatever you want to call it,
• 26:46
  Speaker 2: saying the Biden administration called his employees and screamed and
• 26:49
  Speaker 2: cursed them out to take down COVID vaccine content. He
• 26:53
  Speaker 2: said they wanted METAA censor memes as well, and he
• 26:56
  Speaker 2: said when we pushed back, what happened. They regime started
• 27:01
  Speaker 2: investigating his companies. He's saying, now I can tell you
• 27:05
  Speaker 2: this because they're leaving, and now you need to know
• 27:07
  Speaker 2: what pressure we were under.
• 27:10
  Speaker 15: These people from the Biden administration would call up our
• 27:14
  Speaker 15: team and like scream at them and curse and it's
• 27:17
  Speaker 15: like these documents are it's all kind of out there.
• 27:20
  Speaker 1: Did you record any of those phone calls? I don't know.
• 27:22
  Speaker 1: I don't think.
• 27:23
  Speaker 14: I don't think we were, but but I think, oh, listen,
• 27:25
  Speaker 14: I mean there are emails that the emails are published,
• 27:27
  Speaker 14: it's all, it's all kind of out there, and they're
• 27:30
  Speaker 14: like and basically it just got to this point where
• 27:33
  Speaker 14: we were like, no, we're not gonna We're not gonna
• 27:35
  Speaker 14: take down things that are true.
• 27:37
  Speaker 1: That's ridiculous.
• 27:38
  Speaker 15: They want us to take down this meme of Leonardo
• 27:40
  Speaker 15: DiCaprio looking at a TV talking about how ten years
• 27:44
  Speaker 15: from now or something, you know, you're going to see
• 27:47
  Speaker 15: an ad that says, okay, if you took a COVID vaccine,
• 27:50
  Speaker 15: your eligible you know, like uh for for this kind
• 27:53
  Speaker 15: of payment, except this sort of like class action lawsuit
• 27:57
  Speaker 15: type meme. And they're like, no, you have to take
• 27:59
  Speaker 15: that down. We said, no, we're not going to actually
• 28:01
  Speaker 15: take down humor and satire. We're not going to take
• 28:03
  Speaker 15: down things that are that are true. And then at
• 28:07
  Speaker 15: some point, I guess, uh, I don't flipped a bit.
• 28:10
  Speaker 15: I mean Biden when he was he gave some statement
• 28:13
  Speaker 15: at some point. I don't know if it's a press
• 28:14
  Speaker 15: conference or to some journalists where basically was like, these
• 28:17
  Speaker 15: guys are killing people and and and I don't know,
• 28:22
  Speaker 15: then like all these different agencies and branches of government
• 28:26
  Speaker 15: basically just like started investigating and coming after our company.
• 28:29
  Speaker 1: It was it was brutal.
• 28:30
  Speaker 7: It was brutal.
• 28:32
  Speaker 2: This is actually the first time that I somewhat believe
• 28:37
  Speaker 2: Mark Zuckerberg, because if you built this company and and
• 28:41
  Speaker 2: the entire government is pointing a gun at you, and
• 28:45
  Speaker 2: you've watched what they've done to Donald Trump, you know
