You know my biggest I got you Know so many things on that. But the first thing that comes to my mind because you reference the president is when I first came to this, I watched this film Hotshots about the Forest service guys and the firefighter. And then I connected with the director who embedded with them for six years. And this guy, Gabriel Mann has really helped point me and all the right people to follow the, you know, the Federal Fire Service guys like Bobby Garcia, these legends and. And when you really look into this, you see that what Newsom made fun of the president about the raking would have saved our entire town and 12 people wouldn't have burned alive. Because what people don't. It's such a simple thing when you Google. Because I was like, what As a naive person. What are you talking about? You Google firefighting, raking and then you see, oh, it's these dozers, these big bulldozers and they got these big specialized rake things that clear the dead brush from the state parks that surround communities. So that I go back to. That's the. That was where the fatal error. Just not listening after they did that. I guess he probably told them after. I don't know if it was campfire where they did that last fire when he was president. They walked through it and he's like, you got to start raking. I don't know when it happened, but that was like this joke that Newsom kept tweeting and now I know so much about that is why people died. That's why we lost 7,000 structures. Because even if the LADWP didn't have the water in the reservoirs, if we had had a for dead brush maintenance like the president was trying to tell him or fire breaks around our community, it would have given time for the firefighters to get up on the hills and dig in like they would tell you and have a chance to fight the fire. But it just right up onto the communities you. So yeah, people will argue, oh, some houses would have still burned. Again, I'm not saying they wouldn't. Seven thousand houses don't burn if you clear the dead brush. So, you know, moving forward, you know, whoever is our next governor, like right now, this is as. This is our time to get ahead of the brush maintenance. At least for this community you drive over the next is terrifying to think next year or before the Olympics, Bel Air Canyon, God forbid, could easily burn down Hollywood Hills. Easily burned down. No brush maintenance. I talked to the head of the LAFDA brush clearance unit. He it's one guy now there's the budgets are so Low. And then the scariest part is, and you know, because I know you came out here for fraud, and it's not as flashy as, you know, Somalis taking money from the leering center or whatever, but Newsom. Newsom has taken federal money to actually maintain his state parks as long as he's been the governor. What he does is he lies on it. He says, he treats it. He does these. They have all this PR ways to say that they're doing what they're not doing. They're. Well, I know for a fact they didn't do anything in the Palisades. So, you know, that's a. That's a fact. But, you know, so the list of why the red tape and, you know, what could be done on that level, that's, you know, I actually don't know the power of what the governor could do because he already created such a bad situation that I think the ship sailed with the insurance. I think he should have stepped in a long time ago and made sure all the homeowners could actually have insurance in this community. So, you know, and then, you know, like, he's right now demanding, like the letter, like, I don't know if it was 44 billion, and then it went down to 35 billion. And it lists all these grants. It looks like the fire aid scam, just all these NGOs. If you want to demand $40 billion to the federal government to rebuild for victims, that list needs to literally have all the names of the underinsured, the people dropped, what they need to get their houses back. If you want that money from the feds, you give it directly to the fire victims, not whoever on that grant. NGO therapy and God knows what the, you know, the list was like. Like a scary comedy movie. And it was the exact fire aid scam. And then when you look into fire aid, even the lawyers that were hired to defend fire aid, in their defense, little paper, they say several of these NGOs gave direct to the fire victims. I asked Google, ChatGPT Pro, Gronk, Premium, whatever, I asked everyone, what's the definition of several? There wasn't one AI Google search engine that gave me more than 10. So on a list of, I want to say 200 and maybe 250 NGOs that took the 100 million that people gave to help the fire victims. The own law firm to defend fire rate said several went directly to the fire victims. So that is the problem that then expands across California with the homelessness and, and the issues, the money that people actually Want, you know, whether you're a taxpayer, you're just a nice charitable person that wants to help a homeless person help a fire victim. It doesn't go to where it's supposed to. It goes to salaries, it goes to bonuses, goes to friends, it goes to dinner. God knows what it goes to, but it does not go to the people who need it. And that's my concern. When people are like, this is Spencer. You know, people come to me. It's like, you got to get the feds to get the money. Like, I already. I've been fighting fire aid for a year. That's 100 million. You think I want to fight the federal government to give Newsom $35 billion to help fire victims? No, no, no, no, no. We need a special board of all parties involved, whether Democrats, Republicans. I don't care who you are, but everyone needs to be involved and it needs to really look at the victims and how to get funds directly to them rebuilding. Because the infrastructure is here. They already came in and re put the wire, even though they should have underground it. So the water works, the electricity works. What is that 34 billion going to do if it's not literally to build the fire victims houses back? So if they, if he comes with a new letter to the president that says, here are all the people that got dropped. Here are the people that don't have enough insurance. Here are the people that did have insurance, but the insurance companies won't take their toxic walls out of the house because, oh, it didn't burn down. You just have to live with every single thing that's going to give your kids cancer because that's not covered. So there's so many things that you could do, you know, and so that is my issue with how, you know, and Newsom's out, so we should already is done. Like, I don't even. I'm more waiting for the next governor and somebody who will make that, you know, because there's no way the federal government's handing that Newsom one more dollar. Because it's clear where, where is all the, you know, you go drive around la, go drive around. Where is all the money if we're paying the highest taxes, he already owes, I think the federal government like 20 billion, you know, so it's the only.
