This is an iHeart podcast. Guaranteed Human. That's it. I've had it. I am starting my own lib advocacy nonprofit or whatever and billing the California government. I will be calling all of you from my new beachfront penthouse that I paid millions of dollars for, funded by the taxpayer. Also, great news on immigration, really great news on immigration. And talking to confused people about their gender ideology could be banned in all of Europe if the Euros get their way. And lastly, a brand new edition of Everything I Don't Like Is Fascism. All that and more coming up on the show today. My name is Joe Bob. Thanks so much for tuning in this evening. Show starts right now. I am kidding. I do have some sense of moral compass. So I won't be starting a lib advocacy group and making millions upon millions of dollars and pocketing it all and enriching all of my family and potentially even friends and setting up my kids for the foreseeable future. God, that whole moral compass thing really isn't beneficial when it comes to grifting off of the government, which I won't do, but it's really, really looking alluring. Another story out of California I on a smaller scale, but actually very, very important. Especially because in this case, it's something that libs actually want first. I Gotta remind you, tptpusa.com is the email address. Send along your thoughts, comments, concerns, criticisms. We love seeing each and every one of your emails every day. Also, leave a comment wherever it is that you happen to be watching this on any social media platform. Rumble, YouTube X, Facebook, Instagram, all of the social media platforms. The easiest thing to do is Joe Bob is admittedly a weird name. One grandpa was Joe, the other one was Bob. My parents YOLO'd and decided, hey, we can't decide. Let's make high school very difficult for this guy. But it'll also make it easier for you to find us on social media, any social media platform. Just type in J O B O B. You'll be able to find us there and you can leave a comment. And if those emails and comments are gross, disgusting, vile and downright nasty, the chances of us reading it on the show later on in our Mailbag segment actually go through the roof. We're also gonna try something different today. Pulling the top comment. In response to what we talked about yesterday, the Uber Eats, DoorDash, Lyft fakery going on, all of the fraud. Jasmine emailed us said this happens several times, especially with doordash. It's happened to me more than once in a month. Sorry. More than a couple times in a month. And Door dash doesn't seem to do anything about it. In fact, Jasmine writes, I had the same driver show up twice with two different fake profiles. They don't seem to care. Yeah, that is a massive problem. We got a bunch of emails in response to that yesterday. Emails tptposa.com or leave a comment, any social media platform. And like always make sure it's gross, vile and downright nasty. We love those types of emails. Okay. Speaking of gross, violent, downright nasty. That's how I feel every time I read a story about corruptifornia. Sorry. About the poopy estate. Sorry. The Golden State, but not, well, California case. You didn't catch my drift here. California is one of those places where even the ideas that libs have that they think this is fantastic, this is wonderful, we actually want to get this done. They can't even do that. New story out of California highlights how the state is wasting millions of dollars that if I didn't have a moral compass, could have been going to me on illuminating the massive amounts of police violence that they can't seem to find anywhere. California will back up a couple years. California was criticized by many of the libs, both in California and around the world. In this particular case, about the. We're about to show you from npr. But the fact that there was almost zero transparency with police brutality incidents, anything under investigation was hidden from the public eye and therefore police transparency wasn't really a thing. Libs were very, very upset about this, especially circa 20, 18, 19 and 20 when all of this was starting to come to light. Now I will say this, I have no problem with this. I have absolutely no problem with police transparency. However, when the libs talk about it and they use states like California, I kind of have to roll my eyes a little bit. Oh yeah, California is the, the corrupt police protecting state. I'm not sure you can make that case there. The, the, the deep blue state of California isn't on the lib side. So anyways, when libs hit their own side, it, it's just doesn't make a ton of sense. Nevertheless, I want to play this clip from an NPR podcast commercial thing that they were talking about several years ago which led to a new initiative started by the California State legislature and signed in law by Governor Newsom which allocated millions of dollars which has done diddly squat. Let's start off where this whole thing initiated with this cut 15.
B
Every time police are called and something
A
goes wrong, we're going to arrest you stop resisting. Okay,
B
like someone says officers used excessive force, divorce, or violated their code of conduct.
A
She was calling them for help and
C
they ended up brutalizing her.
B
Police chiefs and officials usually come out and say the same thing. We're investigating for decades here in California. Those internal investigations, which are how the police hold themselves accountable, were secret. Then in 2019, the state passed a new law unsealing some of those records, and we would finally get to find out how good are police at policing themselves.
A
Okay, so California in 2019 passes a much more transparent act which releases a bunch of records which Libs pushed for. And again, like I said, I have no problem with this. Honestly, I. I think transparency at all factors of government should be in full view of the voters and the taxpayers who fund all of it. And yes, I'm a full supporter of the police. Big, especially in California on enforcing the law. You'd actually get rid of a lot of the big problems you have here in California if you just enforce the law that's on the book. But at the same time, well, if there are police that are out acting outside of their authority, I want to know. I think we should hold ourselves accountable when it comes to that sort of thing. So in other words, all good things. Okay, well, that led to a project center at the University of California, Berkeley. Here's a headline. This is graphic one from the Daily Californian, which has slandered me on at least one occasion, talked about my homophobic and racist jokes, which is entirely misrepresenting what my humor is. It's also misogynistic, transphobic, zebra mic, all of the other phobics out there, but they only listed those two. Anyways, what are we talking about? That from the California. The Daily California California allocates $6.87 million for UC Berkeley to establish police misconduct records database. So 2019, California legislature votes to make it. Hey, we're gonna do this more transparently. 2023. Fast forward to 2023. The state says, you know what? We're actually gonna create a database and we are going to make sure all of this is in the public view because of police transparency. Okay, fast forward a year or two. How's that database going? Here's a clip promoting the database and all of the good work it can do before we bring it all crashing down with the massive, glaring problems.
D
We now have a new tool for public safety and transparency, a searchable statewide database called the Police Records Access Project. This database is not just for journalists or lawyers. It's for all of us. For Decades, California would not release records on police investigations. Finally, a few years ago, SB 1421 and SB 16 allowed reporters to request these secret files. Now, anyone, whether you're a journalist, a future employer, lawyer or researcher, can access these public records with the Police Records Access Project database. It's the first database of its kind in California.
A
It is the first database of its kind. California is breaking the mold. It's bursting through the glass ceiling. It's doing what no other state has done, except for the fact that it isn't actually. California spent $6.87 million on this new initiative that went to Berkeley for some reason to make this database, put it all together and put all of the different activity in the system, especially the most recent data, because that's what actually matters. However, the most recent cases, according to some reporting from, I believe this is the US Press, which is a local California website, the most recent cases in the database are from September of 2024. The latest misconduct cases from January 2024. In other words, two years ago, there are zero entries from 2025 all the way to 2026. So in other words, this is. They did compile all of the data that backdated from way back when. That's not really that hard. That's all already kind of public information. They just put it into their database. What really matters is what's going on right now. How much police brutality is being covered up. Oh, you don't know. The database doesn't report on that. The journalists running the program say they are working very, very hard to try to get the website up to date. But however, in total there have only been three cases published entirely through the entire state of California. 40 million people, 500 policing agencies. Only three cases have been published in the last two years. Zero cases in all of 2025. And the most recent year, 2026. The program's director that works at the University of California, Berkeley, so you can probably guess how she looks at the world, uh, couldn't say whether the 2025 data would even be added before the end of 2026. In other words, we're just going to have a revolving door of two year old cases that who really cares. Now, just to put this in perspective, the massive task at hand for the people running this project, they get $6.87 million. There are about 500 law enforcement agencies in the entire state of California, not counting, like the College University police staff. You got about 450 municipal police departments, which is cities and towns who have their own PD. And then you got 58 county sheriff departments, one per county, no exceptions. So totaling about 500 agencies. Because the 450 municipal departments is kind of give or take. Some of them are on and off, some contract with the sheriff's. It's kind of messy. Bottom line, about 500 of them. The original 6.8 million, $6.87 million that the California state granted to this project was over three years. That's going to last year for three years. So spend it wisely. That means about $2.3 million per year. So just to put this in perspective, right, when it comes to just collecting data, that's all that needs to be done here. You could, in theory, with that $2.3 million, pay 15 people $150,000 per year, which is a lot of people at a very, very good salary. All they would need to do is collect data from about 30 policing agencies, which is 30 phone calls, which is less than one a week. Hey, Orange County Sheriff's Department, you guys got the data for us? Oh, yeah, sure. We'll send that right on over. Thanks. Click one down took all of 30 seconds. Now, I'm guaranteed you're gonna run into some hurdles, but like I said, a week to solve, over a week to solve one problem. Again, assuming that you hired 15 people who make $150,000 a year, if you only hire 10 people, that's 230,000 doll, which is if you're making 230 grand a year, you should be able to handle a couple police agencies and pulling their database from two years. We're not talking like the entirety of the police department's history. We're talking like the recent data. Can't do it. The libs want this sort of thing. I don't have a problem with this sort of thing. They still can't pull it off. Former Police Chief Chris Burbank questioned why Berkeley is even in the middle of this at all. He basically suggested it would just be simpler to require police departments to publish their own data directly, which is something that they're already partially required to do through the state's post system. Governor Newsom has declined to comment on the program in zero response from the governor's offices. Hey, this working. Now, there's a couple of things going on here. One, either they're grossly incompetent, which probably is the case, or two, and maybe this is a little bit less likely. But given, you know, what we've now seen from body cams not only in California, but around the country, it could be that the numbers actually don't support any of the claims being made or the claims being used to justify the millions of dollars going to uncover police brutality. In actuality, it could very well be that they did pull all of the data. They looked at it and went, ugh. Turns out cops are mostly good. Again, I don't actually know here. What I'm saying is it seems like an exorbitant amount of money to do a thing that they want to do and they still can't do do it. Which leads me to where I might need your help. I have decided, jokingly to start my own nonprofit. You know, I already, I already buried that. I can't. I have a moral compass. But if I was, I want to know what I should do. My first thought was to start the center for Acknowledging Indigenous Black and Brown Lesbians for Transparency Projects. I'll bill the state of California a mere $10 million a year and I will make transparent all of the data and information regarding. What was it? Indigenous Black and Brown lesbians. If you have any better ideas, I'd love to hear them. TPTP USA.com send your emails and suggest to me what, what, what nonprofit should we collectively together start in order to check all of the library buzzword boxes and hopefully get some money from the state and then retire to our beachfront penthouse, which I'm not entirely sure how much of the. That's probably a Miami thing anyways. TPTP USA.com send us your emails. Would love to hear from you. Is this surprising? Probably not. I actually think. I actually think I'd get more of a kick out of the, the top, the. The advocacy that we will advocate for. PTTPSA.com got a lot of stuff to get you. A lot of really interesting stuff going on. Great news on immigration. Not so great news if you're lib running for mayor in California. We'll be back with all of those right after the break. Don't go away.
C
We are aware of those problems. Both Germany and Europe have wasted incredible potential for growth in recent years by dragging feet on reforms and unnecessarily and excessively curtailing entrepreneurial freedoms and personal responsibility. We are going to change that now. Security and predictability take precedence over excessive regulation. Misplaced perfection. We must reduce bureaucracy substantially. In Europe, the single market was once created to form the most competitive economic area in the world. But instead we have become the world champion of over regulation. That has to end now.
A
I'm not gonna like give the World Economic Forum really any credit, but it is interesting since what's his face. Klaus Schwab stepped down. There are a lot more clips like this coming out which would be good. Again, not, not saying that the World Economic Forum is now the good guy. I'm just saying there's a lot more of this stuff coming out of institutes like that saying eh, this whole like bureaucratic tying up in red tape, that's not working. Interesting. And maybe, maybe we'll do a bigger story, bigger, longer discussion on this. What's going on in Sweden is really, really interesting. Not necessarily involving this particular video, but maybe as a teaser. Bernie Sanders is about to lose the biggest talking point that he has. That feels like, that feels like a good thing to discuss tomorrow. What's going on in Sweden. Their reversion way from socialism towards capitalism. Bernie Sanders is crying. That's a fascinating discussion anyways. Lots of fascinating discussions. Record low numbers on immigration cases. But first I gotta, I gotta play the little zinger. They get to the point Little song that we all dance to get to the point.
E
Get to the point.
A
I'm not sure if it was fair of me to assume that we all dance to this. Producer Glenn does. And I can't say I'm a fan. It's the, it's the gyration. It's, it's too short of a song. And so actually you know what? If you dance to that, I, I'm passing some criticism onto you. Don't do that. It's not a danceable song. All right. Speaking of, speaking of things not to dance about if you're a lib. The new reporting coming out of their own networks. ABC News not known for being big Trump megaphone cheerleaders reporting this record number of immigration cases now ending involuntary departure report says Cool. The number of immigration. The number of migrants. You know, just I hate having to correct on the fly in real time. Their verbiage. The number of illegal immigrants receiving voluntary departure decision in immigration courts has risen. Risen to mat dramatically under the current Trump administration's immigration crackdown. According to reports by Vera Institute of Justice, voluntary departures surged from roughly 800 per month by the end of the Biden administration to more than 800 8,800 by February 2026, with the increase being especially pronounced among those being held in federal detention. In other words, if Trump's in charge of it, they're going adios or however you say by in. I don't know. What do they speak in Haiti? French. And it doesn't matter. What are they speaking? Is it Somali? Somali the whatever language that you say goodbye in, people are doing that much more. If Trump's in charge. Uh, what is 800 to 8, 8800. That's a, is that a hundred percent increase or a hundred times increase? That's, that's amazing. Now it's just 10 times, 10 times more currently in the Trump administration than the end of the Biden administration. That is a massive win that I think I've been, I think this has been my like thing that I've been talking about, especially during the Iran war. Everybody's focused on this. Poll numbers not great. Gas prices not great. Yes. And this sort of stuff is wonderful. And we shouldn't forget that. Speaking of people getting deported, or at least people who should get deported, the DOJ. This from Newsmax. DOJ trend crackdown nets over 25 arrests. The Department of Justice announced a nationwide crackdown on the Venezuelan gang trend ragua that resulted in the arrests of more than two dozen people on charges including firearm and drug trafficking. Charges were filed across six U.S. districts with authority seizing more than 80 firearms, 18 kilograms of drugs, including fentanyl, cocaine and methamphetamines, and more than a hundred thousand dollars in cash. Another great thing. This is one of those get. This is another one of those things
F
where
A
this is, this is a good thing. Yeah, sure, poll numbers not doing great, gas prices high, inflation up. But that's kind of gas. Like, look, at least we're getting something for it. At least in my opinion. I've talked about that before. We don't need to get into it again night right now. But bottom line is still fantastic things happening under the Trump administration that would not have been happening the other direction had America gone down that tackling path. Another good thing can exactly give President Trump credit for this. But maybe the tone of the country, the temperament of the country is maybe what sparked this. On this From CBS News, U.S. students reading. Recession continuing, but some places are actually bucking the trend. Government schools around the country not good. There are so many. This is again worth a bigger, longer discussion. Tptvsa.com if you have happen to have any thoughts of this. I increasingly think if you were to design an education system from the ground up, start from scratch, nothing there. Design it from the ground up. You would not include probably 70% of the things that kids are currently learning in schools, like foreign language is one of those. Like, I took three years of required Spanish. I can say thank you at the Mexican restaurant. And in response they'll say, you're welcome. I don't you didn't have to say it in Spanish. I speak English. So it's stuff like that. Like, it's one of those things where it's like, we are struggling in so many areas in our education system. If you were to design it today with nothing in place, the chances that you would include everything is zero. The chances that you'd include even half of it is pretty minimal. In which case, what the heck are we doing? The nation is in a reading and math recession when it comes to the education of the next generation. And we're still doing like, yes, the whole DEI gender weird stuff. Okay, that not good. Yes, obviously, get rid of that. But even some of the stuff that we all kind of like go, yeah, foreign language. That makes. Here, here's my foreign language class for high school students. Okay, open up your smartphone, go ahead and download Google Translate. And the once in your life, when you go to the country of the class that we're in currently right now, say, I don't know Portuguese. When you go to Portugal or Brazil, for whatever reason, for the week out of your lifetime, in your 50s, 30 years after you graduated high school, go ahead and use this app. All right, foreign language class over. Sorry, I didn't mean to go on a tirade of foreign language classes. Some schools are bucking the trend. A new National Education Scorecard report shows the US is still experiencing recession. Reading recession. However, there are five states that shown meaningful growth in reading tests from 2022 to 2025 and some interesting notable ones, including places like Modesto, California and Detroit, which is great. Good. Having said that, probably should be a more wide scale thing, but if we're reversing course just a little bit, I think that's a step in the right direction. What's not a step in the right direction, however, is what's going on in the eu. The European Union is effectively attempting to ban. Well, okay, let me just read the headline. End Barbaric Conversion practices Now. Brussels tell Brussels tells EU countries. Now, where this gets crazy is what they actually include as barbaric conversion practices. So the EU is voting to institute a non binding piece of whatever the EU's legislation is to tell all of the European Union countries, hey, you can't do this anymore. Also, we can't enforce it because a binding resolution would require, I think, unanimity. So every single country would have to be on board. So this, it's mostly just a saying this, but even on that front, what they include in this article from Euro News is conversion practices. Barbaric Conversion. Sorry. This is all predicated around the Alphabet, people. In case you couldn't tell by the flags of all of the colors if you're L. Oh, shoot, I memorized this. Mmiw. G2S 2L can. I lost it. If you're part of that community, they're saying they're conversion. Anything is completely and totally banned. The question is, okay, what does that actually mean? According to this article from Euro News, conversion barbaric. We need to ban this. Conversion practices encompass interventions such as psychotherapy. Well, that's just, that's just talking right at the base level of it. That's just. If you have a 14 year old that says I'm a girl and they're a boy, the therapist would then not be allowed to go, are you sure? Which is, which is a really tame way of doing that. I'm just saying that was what they're trying to outlaw in Europe again. Thankfully, the current resolution is non binding. But holy cow, if that's the direction that they're moving in, that is a big old problem. Um, they also throw in a bunch of other stuff and they're like, ooh, yeah, it would ban electroshock therapy and exorcisms. All right, cool. Find me the five times that's happened over the last 25 years in all of these 700 million people throughout Europe. And sure, fine. The big thing is when they couple those things with like normal therapy. Like, that's a problem. Speaking of problems, this from the New York Times subscriptions. Apparently problem streaming toilet paper, underwear subscription fatigue is setting in. You know, I feel like I, I don't want to say I'm vindicated in this, but I've been saying this since the subscription era started. I was like, this is not, there's no way this is gonna last. Like, yes, some of the kind of traditional subscription models, like really cable TV in general was a subscription model. And it'll continue to be that the streaming platforms are eventually gonna like bundle together. And it's like, hey, get this bundle and you can get hbo, Max, Netflix, Hulu, Disney plus, all in one bundle. It's just like a cable subscription. It's, it's all the same thing. So that, that, that kind of made sense as to how that's still going to say. But the idea that like you get a box of clothes every month and it's a subscription, it's 100 bucks a month and you got to pay the subscription, you get new socks or new underwear or toilet paper, I guess that was not that's that's not, that's not going to last. If it even took hold to begin with. A couple stats from the article. The Average American has 5.2 subscriptions and spends $69 per month on them. Now maybe this is just tipping my hand to what my household. That seems really low. That seems, it seems freakishly low. And maybe that's also because we use a lot of subscription stuff for the shit like software to, you know, do this program and things of that nature. But that seems very low. According to Harvard 2023 business study, almost 75% of companies that sell directly to customers offer subscriptions. Yeah, that's just, it's just not going to be a thing. Right. Like it kind of reminds me of the, my grandparents refrigerator. I think they bought that thing in the 50s and when they passed away in the 2000s it was, it's still fine refrigerator. And the fridge companies realized, holy cow, this, these fridges are lasting way too long. We gotta make them crappier. So people buy them every other year. Which is what is what led to that thinking. That business thinking is what led to the like, big subscription, oh, you should get your toilet paper on a subscription. I think people are getting tired of that. I think the New York Times is right. Did I just say that out loud? I think I did.
C
Shoot.
A
I think they're right. Fatigue is setting in. Companies increasingly turning everyday project to products to services into subscription models. From toilet paper to underwear, to even earthworms. If you have a subscription to earthworms, I. Okay, bottom line, I think people are getting tired of that. So I don't know. Let us know. Tptbsa.com how many subscriptions do you have? Do you notice them anymore? I do this thing and my wife is not super stoked about it, but I actually think it works. I report my credit card lost like every six months. Whether or not it is, I then get a new credit card with a new number and then I get emails from all of the things that I'm subscribed of like, hey, your credit card isn't working. And if I go, oh shoot, I didn't remember I was subscribed to that. It's an easy, it's a much easier way to cancel that. I don't know if that's like appropriate or even it can't be illegal. I don't know if that's like, I don't know, that's just what I do. And there you go. There's a bit of advice to. In case you're subscribed to more things than you're comfortable with. Just change your credit card number every couple months and you'll, you'll get notified. Hey, Hulu couldn't process your $25 whatever. Oh, shit, forgot. I'll subscribe to that. Thanks. Done.
E
All right.
A
TPTBC.com if you have any emails, questions, comments, concerns. Is my credit card idea stupid? Useless, waste of time? Maybe let us know what your thoughts are on any of the stories you talked about. Hip us to any stories that we should be talking about. Tptpc.com Go follow us on all the social media platforms. Again. Jobob. Very, very simple. Very, very silly, but makes it easier to find with all of the stuff that you have on the Internet. We'll be right back after the break with, with a hilarious selection for Official business. Don't go away. We'll be right back after this. Level.
G
And by the way, this whole thing, they talk about the white culture and you know, let me tell you, it's all about the white culture. This. And you know, we have a problem with this. Every one of these guys, as much as they bash the white culture in America, they only marry white people. Kamala, Marisa, spouse white. Ilhan Omar's spouse, white. You know, aoc, spouse white. Every one of these guys, you know, you keep talking about them, they're trying to go to that. It's not working.
A
All right. Yeah, good point, good point. Fair point. Extrapolate that out a little bit further. 30,000 foot view. And sorry to get a little preachy on you, but that's the like, just Western civilization and Christianity specifically, even the people who really say they hate it or people are like, I'm an atheist. Like, but you live your life like you're not. You live your life in a Western culture as if you do actually like the systems and the values that we've set up. You live your moral life in a lot of different ways. Very much in line with, with the religion that you claim to hate. It's a good point. It's a good point. Yes. On that kind of like micro level there that Patrick bet David's pointing out. But also like on a broader scale, generally speaking, the people that say, hey, these things aren't true, Christianity isn't real. Western civilization is terrible. Both of those things are so entrenched in their lives that they don't even notice anymore. And they live their life that way. And it should be pointed out because it becomes very ironic and hypocritical when they make their case for not wanting those trajectories for our nation. All right, hey, when officials get on their high horse and talk business, we have to report it as official business. Melee mayoral candidate. So technically, technically, she's not an official. She's running to be an official. But the Democratic Socialist of America nominee for mayor of Los Angeles did the meme. It's my favorite thing when people do the meme. It's everything I don't like is fascism, which actually is helpful in my own household. I stubbed my toe on the bedpost this morning getting up to go to the bathroom. God, Fascist bedpost. I can't. I can't believe that the fascist pain that was in my foot was caused by the fascist bedpost. That's everything. I don't like his fascism. Uh, it's a little bit helpful when you're angry, I guess. But she did the meme running for mayor of California. Sorry, Mayor of Los Angeles. Obviously, in California, beyond parody, this stuff is cut six.
H
But I also think it's a very real thing that we should take seriously and we need to grapple with and we need to offer it an honest response. Response that's rooted in actually solving these problems. Otherwise people will turn to fascism, to mini Trump, which is who I think Spencer Pratt really represents.
A
Yes, Spencer Pratt, guy who has house burned down, got fed up with California, specifically Los Angeles, and said, I'm going to run for mayor. It's, it's. It's because of Trump and fascism, which define that for me, if you can. Probably can't. Uh, speaking of that mayoral race, producer Glenn, I'm going to skip to eight here because I think this is more interesting and in line with what we want to the track we're on. The current mayor of Los Angeles, the other socialist, LA mayor, Karen Bass, former congresswoman, spent a lot of time with socialists in Cuba learning how to make bombs in her youth. Kind of glossed over that when she was running for really any office that she's held. But she was asked what she thinks, what she would think of what it would look like if Spencer Pratt were actually to win the mayoral race in LA. Cut 8.
F
What do you think Spencer Pratt would be like as mayor?
I
I. I can't even imagine. I don't think I understand. He has a degree in political science, but he does not have a background or knowledge in how our government works.
F
You know, Hillary Clinton wanted to run against Donald Trump. Is there a chance that maybe some Spencer Pratt is being underestimated, that maybe he's not the best person to run against.
I
Absolutely. I mean, I take nothing for granted
A
except for that all of the libs are going to vote for her. That's why she pulls out of a bunch of debates and doesn't engage with fair press, or at least does so as little as possible. Okay, cool. So, yeah, he's unqualified. Yeah, he's got it. I can't even imagine that's kind of what a citizen governorship should be like. Like these citizens governing other citizens, you know? Yeah. Everybody thinks, like, for some reason, like the D.C. crowd, which she's 100% one of, is like, wow, you have to be an attorney. I don't think she is, but you got to be an attorney. You got to know government and all the. That's not. That's kind of not how we were designed as a country. It was supposed to be as kind of a peer to peer type of thing, so. Oh, he's got a political science degree, so that means he's not acquainted with the way that we do government in this country. Get out of town. Which means I will Skip to number 10 here, because here's Karen Bass, clearly scared of the guy that she's belittling in that clip prior to this. This is cut 10.
I
But what's worrying me now is, is that his social media is now taking on a violent pace. And that worries me because when you do that and when your messages are so hateful or when you demonize people, then you do provoke people who are unstable and you can jeopardize people's safety.
F
You mean like the throwing of the tomatoes?
I
Well, the throwing of the tomatoes which look like blood or drowning me and the governor in a reservoir. But there's also other violent scenes, and so I've noticed that. That it's taking on a violent trend.
A
You know, it's. It's tough to toggle between just like total internal rage and sarcastic mockery and belittling of that. Oh, yeah, it's. That's what's causing the. The political heated rhetoric and the violent temperament that the country current has. It's. Oh, it's. It's coming from funny online videos as opposed to the literal rhetoric that her and all of her friends use. Oh, these fascist Nazis on the right. Oh, yeah. Okay, that's. That's not doing anything. But the cartoon that everybody knows is clearly a cartoon with tomato. Looks like. Looks like a tomato, which is, like, been in, like the public. Throwing tomatoes at bad acts is like. That's like the first thing you learn in, like kindergarten. Slipping on a banana peel and you throw tomatoes at bad singers. Like, that's. Oh, that, that's. Yeah, that's what's caught. Oh, man. Tough one. All right, let's end on a good note here. Let's go to cut seven. Cut seven. Here's, here's, a. Here's some discussion about meth heads. TV teeth in Los Angeles. Go ahead.
I
How many people who are unhoused that you meet have no teeth at all? They don't have teeth. Why? Because meth rots your teeth. You can't succeed without teeth. So there needs to be comprehensive health care provided to people.
A
I don't. Do I even need to say anything? Producer Glenn Is that just. Do I, do I have to comment on that at all? Because meth heads don't have teeth because they've likely yanked them out themselves with pliers because there's in their mind bugs running through them. And I've known people who've done this. We need to pay for their teeth because you can't succeed without teeth. That's actually probably the only thing I agree with right there is I'm hiring somebody and they don't have any teeth. It is tougher. Now, does that mean that I should be forced to pay for people who have pulled out, done their own dentistry at home dentistry, or should I say at tent dentistry? Is that my responsibility? Okay. All right. If that's the hill, if that is the hill you choose, Mayor Bass, go for it. Hey, it's Wednesday. So what that means is as if we haven't done so the entirety of the show, it is woke Wednesday and we will participate in that week weekly tradition when we get back after the break. Tptbc.com don't go away.

Charges announced tonight after more than a million dollars in SNAP benefits were stolen in in Minnesota. And according to those charges, 60 year old Abdi Waheed Mohammed used other people's EBT cards to buy products from Wal Mart, Sam's Club and Costco and then sold those items at his own grocery store called Minnesota Food Grocery. From March to August of 2021, he purchased $1.1 million. This is in products through various EBT cards and it invested investigation found he promised payment and even free groceries from his store for people who gave him those cards.
A
Say what you will, that's actually a pretty good scam. Obviously I don't want it to happen. I think we should close all of those loopholes and that guy should be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law. And pretty, pretty good scam on that one. Hey, I own like a liquor store or a corner market or a grocery store if you want to call it. Well, how do I get my supplies? I just go to the big box retailers and then upscale it to have some margin there. Hey, but you know what gives you some real good margin is stealing the products by way of using taxpayer money to buy them. Then my margin is a hundred percent that not not don't like scams of the scams. Pretty good. All right. Hey, it's Wednesday. You know what that means? It is time for woke Wednesday. I, I, I don't even know what to say about this. I'm just going to play the clip and then we will discuss if even necessary, cut 11.
E
I'll just quickly say because I think everyone's making great points. I think two things can be true at the same time. I think that the intent can be questioned behind these new Trump policies. There was no acknowledgement of the black maternal mortality crisis because black women die at a much higher rate than any other demographic. Than any other demographic. And he doesn't seem to be, this administration is not concerned about that. I think it's true that he wants Trump babies which implies he wants American born white children. He wants toddler white masculine. That's may be part of the intent.
A
She just said toddler white nationalists on her program. Okay, I, so considering that I myself routinely get called a white nationalist, especially on the Internet despite, you know, not um, does that mean my toddler is a Trump wanted toddler? I like, I don't quite understand that. Um, there actually is a lot to say about the black maternal mortality that Sunny brings up completely dishonestly brought up by her because there's lots of variables there that have been thoroughly explained and debunked. But golly, I'm looking at the time, I don't have a ton of time to get into it. Very, very briefly, there are some personal choices involved in that statistic that shouldn't be neglected when it comes to throwing that out there. Nobody wants anybody to die during the childbirth process. And statistically speaking, there are some people who will likely go to the doctor's office and there are other people who likely won't. And there is personal choice involved in that which will never be talked about in venues like the View. That's a bigger, longer discussion that we can't have right now. Tptpo say calm. We'll get the mailbag. Coming up after the break. Lots of great ones today. Leave a comment. Wherever it is that you happen to Be watching this all across social media. Go follow us on social media. Just jobob. You'll be able to find anything we do any social media platform. We'll be right back after the break. Don't go away, Babe. I can't believe the baby's already £1.

Wait, that doesn't make any sense.
A
Haven't you gained 20? RIP Corey Niles, may you rest in peace. That is not that. Yeah, I've experienced that too. I, I had the question when my wife was first pregnant, first kid. Hey, you put on, you put on these. That's what happens, right? That's just what happens. But then she goes through the like, the fruit chart. Like, oh, look, she's a mango this week. The size of a mango. I'm like, well, that's odd. And I didn't say it. That's the thing is, is knowledge, is knowing there's a discrepancy. Wisdom is not pointing it out. Right. That's, that's the difference between those two things. But you will be missed, Corey. I'm sure, I'm sure the couch in his living room, though, it was nicer than the one that he had to experience in the hospital because, golly, you want to talk about pains of birth, men will know this. Tptbusa.com that hospital bed, the pull out couch that you have to sleep in is the worst part of the birthing experience by far. All right. Hey, time to get some emails. Tptpc.com Stephen, among many other people who sent emails on this, he said delivery driver showed up his house, didn't speak any English, ended up calling the restaurant directly, they remade the food, had to go pick it up himself. Not a good experience. Yeah, that's again referencing what we talked about yesterday, the fraudulent doordashers and Uber eats. Becky says she drives her Spark says. I'm not sure what Spark is. You can fill me on that. That'd be great. They allow illegals to piggyback off of Walmart delivery apps all the time. I don't. Wow. Yeah, that's, that's crazy. Mark says this Spark is Spark. Something that I should know about. Mark says frequent corresponding. Mark says the Spark drivers are a good point. But the person delivering wasn't the person on the Walmart page. Walmart. Is that a Walmart thing specifically? Okay, I guess I didn't know that Walmart. I guess told him that doesn't matter. As long as the delivery gets made, it does kind of matter. Lot of things that matter on that front. All right, so let's see, here's sat 12. This is some B roll on the Xavier Becerra clip that we posted yesterday. We did this as a comeback clip. Stephen Different. Stephen says as even his coworkers at the White House. Oh, he works at the White House. Says he was ineffective or knows people at the White House. Oh, he's talking about Xavier's coworkers at the White House. Said he was ineffective. We do not need any more of this in California. Ginger says he already lost. I hope so, Ginger. Maricela says, what's he afraid of? Denny says, what's your favorite ice cream? Oh, she liked my joke. Oh, that's cool. Thank you, Erica. More he opens his mouth, the fewer votes he gets, which I say, you know what? We'll welcome in on the show. Xavier, Javier, whatever you want to say, have your pronounce that you are more than welcome to come on this show. You have an open and standing invitation. Likely guess is that that won't be taken up on TBT. TBSA.com is the email address. Thanks so much for tuning in. We'll see you tomorrow, same time, same place. God bless America.
