Eric Swalwell grabs a big endorsement

00:00:00
Speaker 1: And we continue at two oh five in the afternoon on the John Phillips Show, Mister Randy Weggs in Culver City.

00:00:06
Speaker 2: John, one of the biggest endorsements of the gubernatorial campaign has happened. Eric Swalwell is getting the nod from the SEIU, and.

00:00:16
Speaker 1: Of course he received the endorsement from Adam Schiff, one of the state's United States Senators, and from Ian Calderon, who was the only Democrat to take the California Democratic Party Chairman Rusty Hicks advice and drop out of the race. He also threw his support behind the Bay Area congressman.

00:00:36
Speaker 2: Do you know what Katie Porter called it when Adam Schiff endorsed Swallwell and not her.

00:00:41
Speaker 3: I call it the shift gift.

00:00:44
Speaker 1: Yeah, that was a day you didn't want to be around her. Come to think of it, that's most days. Eight hundred two two two five two two two is the telephone number one eight hundred two two two five two two two. It is our pleasure to welcome our next guest to the program. He's the senior editor at Reason and host of Rising on the Hill TV. You can follow him on x at Robbie Suave, Robbie suave. Welcome, nice to talk to you.

00:01:13
Speaker 4: Have you been I'm.

00:01:15
Speaker 1: Good, Thanks so much for stopping by on this Friday afternoon. Let's start out with that breaking news that the SEIU has now endorsed Eric Swalwell for governor. Here in the state of California, the Democrats are afraid that they could get locked out of the November ballot if too Republican candidates Steve Hilton, formerly of Fox News, and Chad Bianco, the sheriff of Riverside County, finished first and second, and now it looks like they're starting to coalesce support behind Eric Swalwell, which would be a complete disaster, but probably enough to get him on the November ballot. What do you make of the fact that they appear to be putting all of their eggs in his basket.

00:02:00
Speaker 4: Well, they have to avoid, obviously from their point of view, having the scenario that you just outlined happened, because that would be disaster to the Democrats. But Swallwell is a toxic national figure. You know, couldn't a moderate, normal Democrat attract you know, enough independent and Republicans support in the state of California to coast to this thing. But it's all these crazy democrats. Swalwell, very much in this category, has spent you know, his entire career anti Trump obsessions is controversial for his connection to an alleged or even presumed Chinese spy, and so on and so forth. California is I think, demonstrating to the entire nation what comes of giving complete political power to the Democratic Party. And you get skyrocketing housing prices, crime disaster, you get also then you get this pathological need from the labor union activists to tax the productive members of the society to death such that they all free it, flee it rather, you know, what's the plan to deal with that? I mean, the damage there is done, right, they're all leaving and and California is I think sadly going to find itself in just terrible financial shape because of that decision, which not even not Evenkevin Newsom wants that to happen. It's I I can't think of like a worse choice than than Swallwell to to go up against the Republicans you mentioned. I've I've met Steve Hilton, I've been on I've been on Fox with him before. He's a very thoughtful, interesting guy and Uh, it'll be a formidable uh campaigner.

00:03:56
Speaker 1: What do you think the deal is with Democratic voters? Where the government that we receive in California is really really poor, whether it is the bullet train homelessness, retail theft, the condition of our roads, the condition of our K through twelve schools are totally insane. Parole boards letting very violent, very dangerous people out of prison simply because they have a number of candles on their birthday cake, and we decide that, okay, let's have compassion for them due to that reason. But it seems like the people who live around me, their hatred for Donald Trump is so off the charts that all they're looking for in candidates for state and local office is a shared hatred of Donald Trump. And as long as you hate Donald Trump as much as they hate Donald Trump, they regard you as competent. And it doesn't seem to bother them that we have to buy our shampoo through bulletproof glass. It doesn't seem to bother them that they get you'll get assaulted or you'll be the victim of a crime if you ride public trans at enough times. Either in La San Francisco, Sacramento, wherever. It doesn't matter. They're very tolerant a very poor government that they pay a fortune for.

00:05:17
Speaker 4: Yeah, I can't think of a worse way to do governance than to just have it be a total referendum on how viscerally you hate Donald Trump. And liberals are losing the will to govern effectively at all on all the issues you just mentioned, the most fundamental, the first and foremost duties of government. I'm a libertarian, so I don't give the government all that many duties. Frankly I would. I think it already it's doing way too much. But the couple fundamental things they have to do, particularly on the state and local level, provide a working police system and court system, in some form of transport public transportation, and allow the permitting of housing to be built. Those kinds of like basic things that liberals, not just in in California but all over the place are are failing this. This is why people are moving to Red states. This is why Red states are building housing more successfully. It's why you want to start businesses want to headquarters in Red states. It's it's uh, it's liberals are not governing effectively anymore, and and there are now there are smart Democrats. There are you know, moderate Democrats who want to because they're certainly Republicans who for various reasons, getting the way of progress to in terms of building things, making things more affordable. Trump gets in his own way. Sometimes I get frustrated with him too. I get it, but that just can't be the number one reason why you You make that your entire personality and what you're seeking to achieve politically, particularly at the at the local level, where they are just different. They're just like you said, there are very basic, fundamental things that have become broken in the society. We're experiencing that in Washington, DC too. It's why Trump sent in the National Guard, which had the immediate instantaneous effect of discouraging on a mass scale the kind of crime waves we've seen the last couple of years, the gangs of teenagers, you know, marauding through the streets, steel jacking car people's cars, shoplifting, that kind of thing. It was over because there was troops everywhere. Now, I don't think that's a workable solution at scale for the whole nation, but Trump did something about it here in the nation's capital, where he had the you know, the jurisdiction to do it, and the mayor didn't even really fight it and actually secretly enjoys that it became a safer place. So that was actually governing. What do you got Democrats?

00:07:55
Speaker 1: What's wild to me is that when you talk to them one on one, they know what reality is. They're not buying Gavin Newsom's bs when he says that the bullet Train is a successful program because it's a jobs program, so don't worry about the fact that you can't buy a ticket on a train that doesn't exist that was supposed to be completed years ago. He says that homelessness is going down, even though we see encampments all over the place and seven people, seven people die on the streets every single day in Los Angeles, seven homeless people. So therefore we're creating six point whatever new ones per day to replace the ones that were killing. And they brag about the fact that it's going down a tick, retail theft, whatever the case may be. Democrats know who live here that all of that is a disaster. Maybe some of them don't, but the ones I talk to, for the most part, they know the state that they live in. Yet they feel like complaining about it is good enough that if they complain about Newsom, or they complain about the condition of the roads, or if they complain about retail theft or whatever, that that is is them just beating their chest and showing the world that they're not happy about it. Yet they won't vote differently. They vote as if they're very happy with the government that they receive. And I don't know if they're capable of voting differently, but nothing is going to change until they start voting differently.

00:09:26
Speaker 4: I know it's a source of frustration. I feel it. Here in DC. We have our Mayor MARYO. Bowser, is actually one of the more normal to Democrats. And I say that as someone who criticized every aspect of her COVID governance. But now I see what we could have. We could have Brandon Johnson, we could have zoron Mom Donnie. She's retiring. I bet we do get a zoron Mom Donnie. It's gonna get worse. It's not. It's it's not you know, Democrats coming together and saying, Okay, we need we need at least a problem solver to fix the those things you're talking about. No, it's we need some charismatic, pathological Trump hating person and who who is going to uh put the put the municipality in a fiscal crisis that necessitates trying to squeeze more tax revenue out of the productive citizens who then just leave. I mean, how many more of the wealthiest people had to say, you know what, Florida's Florida's fine, let's go to Florida and leave California before the people. And this isn't even the elected leaders. This is the democratic base demanding this right. This is done over the objections of the people, the liberals running the state. This is coming from the unions themselves, the people who just can't help themselves, but squeeze until there's nothing left. That's a that's a base problem. That's not there's no way it's going to get fixed. And it's so terrible, and it's so you know, the the jobs it's a jobs program, the train that doesn't take anybody anywhere. I mean, that's like straight out of you know, KNESY and FDR. I would just pay might as well pay people to dig holes in the ground. Then, I mean, that's like a central like basic central planning, you know, Soviet failure of to to think that that is a model that actually creates product. You know, let's just smash windows and then we'll fix them, and we created economic prosperity. It's it's like that's failing econ one oh one. No, smashing those windows is not good good for the economy. The better they were just they were left in place and people could spend the money on other things. So it's hilarious to hear that tront of doubt.

00:11:41
Speaker 1: So far, a trillion dollars in wealth has already moved out of the state. Chevron has a letter out this week saying that if we don't do something about cap and trade, their next Yamaha says they're moving out of the state. We saw in the state of Washington where Starbucks has now said that moving their headquarters out of the state of Washington, something a lot of people probably thought that they'd never hear. Their CEO, Howard Schultz, who is a guy who is certainly left of center, announced that he will be leaving the state of Washington. And we know that Mom Donnie is chasing people out of New York City as fast as he can. Recently, the governor of New York, Kathy Hochel acknowledge the fact that they're losing a lot of their wealth to red states. What do you think the United States looks like where all of the wealth has moved out of these blue states into states like Tennessee, Florida, and Texas. Because that's not how it is right now. But unless something changes dramatically soon, that's certainly the future.

00:12:45
Speaker 4: I think it is the future. I think it's inarguable those states you mentioned in others, and that's a good thing. You know what, This is how it's supposed to work, healthy competition. We are one nation, but we are fifty states, and the states get to experiment with different regulatory and tax policies, and people can can vote with their feet. You know, we're all we're all descended in one way or the other from people who came to America seeking opportunity. That's a beautiful thing. So now you can go to for the seeking opportunity. You can leave New York or California, or Illinois or Michigan or wherever it is and go somewhere that that actually allows people to build things, that allows you to start a company that doesn't think sixty percent of your of your your income should be confiscated or you know, mom, Donnie's up to fifty two percent, it's sixty percent is the top rate in Nordic countries. That, by the way, somehow manage to then give people a large amount of public services that they're they're reasonably satisfied with. We don't, are we thinking does anyone feel like, well, Okay, they're going to take fifty two percent of my income, but at least the streets will be really clean, the public transportation will be really clean and safe. The police will do a great job of arresting criminals. There will be no more shoplifting. And then, you know, you might make that. Some people would make that trade. They could decide where they want to live. It's going to be really nice and really clean and really orderly. I'm paying an armatal leg to live there a lot of my income. I don't like that, but it's going to be nice, clean, safe. That's the deal you're supposed to make. If that's what you want, then you'll live somewhere like that. But we know that this they confiscate more of the wealth. It does not go to those things. And even if it does go to those things, it's not gonna like, that's a problem if prosecutors are not prosecuting, because judges won't convict and juries won't convict people who are lawbreakers. This money is going to be used to pay the pension funds of retirees of government employees, of our bloated medical system, our medicare advantage plans, Like it's not going to make a young couple who wants to start a family and wants to be able to afford a home and their neighborhood is going to be safer and more affordable and cleaner because Mom, Donni or whoever it is is taking more of your money. No one believes that, no one, no one on earth believes that anymore. That's just not what's happening. So the argument to do that goes away. So then I would rather all take my chances in a red state that actually does have some law and order. Maybe it doesn't have robust social safety net and public transportation, but I'm keeping more of my income and I can start a business and it's affordable to live there. Sounds like a good deal to me.

00:15:39
Speaker 1: We're speaking with Robbie Suave, who you can follow on exit. Robbie Suave Robbie. The former First Lady. Jill Biden announced this week that she has a book that's going to be coming out before the midterm elections, where she is expected to light everyone on fire who helped to push your husband out of the presidential race. How can Caddie, do you think that book is going to be?

00:16:03
Speaker 4: You know, I realized that you neglected to use her full and prophet. She's doctor Jill Biden. You know this is a This is a doctor. So a doctor is speaking and we should listen. It's I mean, it's incredible that she thinks what they're doing score settling. It's going to be one hundred pages of expletives about Nancy Pelosi. That's what I'm expecting, and George Clooney and you know, and what's seventy percent of Democratic voters who thought he was too old to do this? Like who is? There's no one left on their side. They the Democrats are fleeing any association with the Bidens. They are what they tried to foist on the American people. This lie, this absolute contemptible lie, that Joe Biden was capable of being president currently or at the time this was all happening. Let alone for an additional four years that he was going to make it through that term. We all know, everyone in the country knows that's a lie. So what does she have to complain about and to say about. She's the grima worm tongue. She was whispering in the ear of the king, you know, poisoning his mind that he should still somehow hold on in his elderliness, his infirmity. And she's going to write what I tell all book about how she I mean, it would actually be then interesting book if she admitted and talked about the strategies she employed to engage in the cover up. I'm not expecting there to be any candid, radical honesty in here. It would be interesting if there was. But but no, it'll be unwelcome advice in score settling against people who even belatedly tried to speak up about this insanity.

00:17:56
Speaker 1: Robbie Suave, senior editor at Reason and host of Rising on the Hilty. You can't follow him on x at Robbisuave, Robbisuave, thanks so much for stopping by. Have a excellent weekend.

But that's because we really believe in it. In fact, why don't I tell you right now what that best of is gonna be? Because I can open up the folder and it's going to be the three fourteen show show, and it's going to be Oh, it's the audits, a shang email and the ghost students.

00:19:20
Speaker 1: Eight hundred two two two five two two two is the telephone number? What eight hundred two two two five two two two. Yesterday we had a caller call in who was a graduate of the University of California Davis, and I mentioned that they were playing my cal State Fullerton Titans over in the Western Conference Finals over in Henderson, Nevada last night. Randy, the Titans won. Oh boy, what does that mean? Well, it means we go on to play Hawaii tonight. So that's what I'll be doing at eight thirty.

00:19:53
Speaker 2: Oh wow, you're living such an exciting life.

00:19:58
Speaker 1: After I sit in the car for four and a half hours. All right, there is a contest that's taking place in San Francisco trying to determine, and I know this is a difficult task of figuring out what exactly is the dumbest law in all of San Francisco.

00:20:16
Speaker 2: This is a contest being put forth by new San Francisco supervisor Alan Wong. He's the guy that replaced the pet shop lady that replaced Joel Ingardio after he got recalled for turning the Great Highway into a park. Well, Alan Wong wants you to identify what is the stupidest law in San Francisco, and maybe, just maybe the Board of Supervisors can get on the same page of repealing some of the nonsensical bureaucracy that is in San Francisco. For more, here's ABC seven in the Bay.

00:20:53
Speaker 6: A San Francisco supervisor is launching what he's calling a dumb laws contest. It's meant to tackle outdate city rules. What are we talking about here, Let's say past complications some business owners have faced when wanting to place chairs outside their storefronts. Well his offices.

00:21:09
Speaker 2: In fact, wasn't it the whole reason Gavin Newsom got into politics was he was so pissed off that San Francisco was forcing him to have a mop sync inside his wine shop.

00:21:21
Speaker 1: Okay, you could turn this into a game show. Who would you want to host this game show? Fat Drew Carrey or thin Drew carry.

00:21:33
Speaker 6: Well, his office says, the city's worked a streamline some processes. ABC seven nine with his snooze report of Lauria Rodriguez live in studio with us with the changes high Gloria.

00:21:42
Speaker 7: Hello, Yeah.

00:21:42
Speaker 8: San Francisco has a history with unusual laws. In fact, it was the first city in the US to prohibit quote, unsightly people from appearing in public. The so called ugly law was eventually repealed.

00:21:55
Speaker 2: Did you know that San Francisco had a law on the books that banned ugly people?

00:22:00
Speaker 1: What happened to that? Because the last time I was up there, it looked like they weren't enforcing it.

00:22:06
Speaker 2: It got revealed, but at one point it was illegal to be ugly in San Francisco.

00:22:15
Speaker 8: Unsightly people from appearing in public. The so called ugly law was eventually repealed.

00:22:21
Speaker 2: But they eventually went so far in the other direction that they decided it was legal to not even wear clothes.

00:22:29
Speaker 1: Talk about a swing.

00:22:32
Speaker 8: But there are still some very unusual, outdated rules buried in our public codes, and when supervisor is hoping to weed them out.

00:22:40
Speaker 9: Maybe the dumb law might even get repealed.

00:22:43
Speaker 8: San Francisco's supervisor, Alan Wong no relation wants to hear from residents about their experiences with so called dumb laws.

00:22:51
Speaker 9: So I think I want to just work on things that don't make sense and are making the legs of everyday people harder.

00:22:58
Speaker 8: I found some questionable laws in San Francisco and decided to ask residents about them. It's illegal to carry bread in an exposed container or a basket.

00:23:08
Speaker 3: Twity, what.

00:23:14
Speaker 2: It is illegal in San Francisco to walk around with a basket of bread unless the bread is covered or wrapped in some way.

00:23:26
Speaker 1: Well, isn't that the whole point of having a basket on your bike?

00:23:29
Speaker 2: The home of Sourdough doesn't want you carrying an open container of bread.

00:23:35
Speaker 1: Maybe they're anti carb.

00:23:39
Speaker 5: At some point.

00:23:40
Speaker 2: This was something written by a San Francisco supervisor, voted on by the Board of Supervisors, and signed into law by whoever was mayor at the time.

00:23:53
Speaker 8: I found some questionable laws in San Francisco and decided to ask residents about them. It's illegal to carry bread in an exposed container or a basket.

00:24:02
Speaker 7: What do you think about that?

00:24:03
Speaker 1: I think that is a very weird law. Okay, well we have progress here. I don't think there should be a way that someone should carry their bread.

00:24:18
Speaker 3: Sounds kind of dumb.

00:24:25
Speaker 1: Who on that Board of Supervisors thought it was a good idea to write that and then appeal to the other members of the board to try to get them to vote for it.

00:24:34
Speaker 2: I gotta imagine this has got to be at least fifty years ago, maybe even older, by the way. Every single city should do this, every single county should do this, The entire state should do this.

00:24:48
Speaker 5: We should go through.

00:24:49
Speaker 2: And I love the idea of making it a contest, but we should be going through on a regular basis our city codes, our county codes, our state laws. Finding things that don't make any sense in taking them off.

00:25:04
Speaker 5: The books.

00:25:06
Speaker 3: Sounds kind of dumb.

00:25:08
Speaker 2: It's like the old episode of The Simpsons where they realized that prohibition was never repealed. In Springfield. They also found an old law that said ducks must wear long pants.

00:25:19
Speaker 1: I forget who it was, but there's a group that puts together a bunch of these stupid laws. And there was one I remember very distinctly out of the state of Maine or maybe it was Massachusetts that said that you could only give prisoners lobster one day a week.

00:25:36
Speaker 3: Sounds kind of dumb.

00:25:38
Speaker 5: Okay, I need that. That's good.

00:25:41
Speaker 2: I feel like I'm gonna need this for future laws that are passed this year and all the years going forward in the state of California. So let me go to my ever expanding drops folder and put in sounds kinda dumb.

00:25:56
Speaker 3: Sounds kind of dumb.

00:26:00
Speaker 5: That it does a little besides the.

00:26:02
Speaker 3: Point, I love it. I'm on a low carb diet. No, I'm kidding. Obviously that's silly.

00:26:07
Speaker 5: We're having a little fun here, you can tell.

00:26:10
Speaker 7: Here's another weird one.

00:26:12
Speaker 8: If someone sells used underwear to be used as a wiping rag, that's illegal under section six POT ninety four.

00:26:19
Speaker 1: What wait, so you can sell them to be warned, but you can't sell them to be a wiping rag.

00:26:26
Speaker 2: In San Francisco, it is against the law to sell used underwear for the purposes of wiping things down. What that even means? I do not know how this was a concern. I have no idea.

00:26:43
Speaker 1: Is that a common practice?

00:26:48
Speaker 2: Well, if all the rags are in the wash, you gotta wipe down the table with something.

00:26:54
Speaker 1: Can't you use a paper towel.

00:26:57
Speaker 2: We don't know when this law was created. Maybe this is pre paper towel. Maybe in the prospect in days in San Francisco's hey day, the only thing you could use to wipe something down was your undies.

00:27:12
Speaker 7: I guess here's another weird one.

00:27:15
Speaker 8: If someone sells used underwear to be used as a wiping rag, that's illegal under section six p ninety four.

00:27:22
Speaker 2: And again, it's not illegal to use the used underwear. It's illegal to sell the used underwear for that purpose.

00:27:30
Speaker 1: You know what they say, don't ask any questions if you don't want to know the answer. So I'm just gonna let that one slide.

00:27:37
Speaker 2: Please, if someone has a lot of free time this weekend, investigate the origin of these laws and report back to us.

00:27:45
Speaker 5: I got to know that's a.

00:27:47
Speaker 1: Weird law, but I find it more.

00:27:52
Speaker 8: Disgusting than anything using an underwear.

00:27:55
Speaker 3: Does it need to be illegal?

00:28:01
Speaker 1: Not advisable? For sure.

00:28:04
Speaker 2: This is one of the greatest things a local elected official in government has done all year. We should all be looking into how stupid the laws on the books are.

00:28:14
Speaker 3: Does it need to be illegal? It's like it's a bad idea, but does it have to be illegal?

00:28:20
Speaker 8: So will Supervisor Wong work to repeal these odd laws?

00:28:24
Speaker 7: Possibly, but not so fast.

00:28:27
Speaker 9: Before we eliminate any proposed dumb laws, we need to make sure removing it is not done.

00:28:34
Speaker 2: And I found you know you're going to have to get supervisors at port. And is Jackie Fielder really gonna support repealing the used underwear rag law?

00:28:41
Speaker 1: We don't know. Can you imagine what that debate would be like.

00:28:52
Speaker 8: And I found another weird law. It's illegal to pick flowers like this at a park. So you can't take any soil, weeds, or grass from a park without permission from the Recreation and Park Department.

00:29:03
Speaker 2: No plucking posies at the Golden Gate Park kids.

00:29:10
Speaker 1: The public paid for those flowers.

00:29:12
Speaker 5: Not at the Presidio either.

00:29:14
Speaker 8: And everybody's welcome to share their experiences with these so called dumb laws with Supervisor Wong's office, and we'll be posting that link up on our website, and the winner of the contest will be featured in their social media pages.

00:29:25
Speaker 2: That's all they get, Not a keychain. How about an iheartsf shirt? How about some pizza at North Beach?

00:29:38
Speaker 1: How about a year supply of turtle wax?

00:29:40
Speaker 8: And he says, who knows, out law just might.

00:29:43
Speaker 2: Be how about because this is the sunset, if you win the contest for the dumbest law in San Francisco, you get a permit where you still get to use your car on the park that once was the Great Highway.

00:29:59
Speaker 8: And he said, who knows, outlaw just might be repealed. Live in the studio Gloria Rodriguez, ABC seven, I wit us New So Larry's some weird law still out there.

00:30:09
Speaker 6: All right, So I got this straight. No exposed bread, don't pick the weeds, and don't use your undredd to wash the car.

00:30:16
Speaker 1: I got it, you got it.

00:30:17
Speaker 6: Three for three.

00:30:18
Speaker 3: Thank you.

00:30:19

But right now, this is the best statewide political program on TV. So check out Ashley Zavala on Sunday on your local Fox station or Cacerra three if you're inside Decremento. Let's go to Gloria Gloria.

00:32:02
Speaker 10: Hello, Yes, Hello, my name is Gloria Delgado. I come out of Port Rainiey, California, and I'm here in your your news.

00:32:14
Speaker 4: I'm in the eight fifty Bard.

00:32:16
Speaker 10: Road, which is in Port Rainie, California, which is close to the city of Oxen Narina in California. And it is so true when it comes to homelesses and when it comes to anti immigration. I'm a Trump supporter. When I went to go against the prop fifthday and I was advocacy for that, I got so much harassment and threatened. I was asaulted three times of the year of twenty twenty five, at three separate times. And as this is happening, I have been sprayed with radar with raide where you kill roaches and so for it on the face, hitting the back by a guy that they I already knew who it was. The officers never did anything about it, and if they did, the district attorney made their follow suits. I contacted the police department. Nothing came about regarding the three assaults. Even though I had witnesses on the day of hallowing the thirty first where I was hearing the Dodger game that day for the Dennis, I got feed up by school assaults and males right in front of Denny's restaurant and so and this has to do with and it's true when you are four and hour President Trump, you get threatened, you get harassed, and it continues on. And I have out where the city officials apart when you department. I have contacted some of the radio broadcasters that I know, like ABTA and KNX, and I have informed that what has been happening. And mind you, I'm sixty eight years old and I'm blind, and I became homeless for this purpose. I could not even get into a shelter because I was blackbaumbed in port Ramini and Oxar, California.

00:34:33
Speaker 1: All right, well, I'm sorry all of this happened to you, and I hope your fortunes well they get better. Because that sounds like a rough hand of cards. Let's go to Walter in Santa Clarita. Walter, Hello, Walter left. All right, Joe and Ventura, Joe, welcome.

00:34:52
Speaker 11: So the any of you been on the Great Highway in San Francisco. It's a great highway. It's a nice little highway. It's right along the ocean, beautiful ze of the ocean. If you want to go surfing in this spot, you can go parks exactly where you want to surf and go out. I can understand argument about making something apart, but when I heard that they closed the Great Highway, I couldn't believe. I just couldn't believe it. You said that they recalled the supervisor that did that. Is that right?

00:35:28
Speaker 1: Yeah.

00:35:29
Speaker 2: So Joel Guardio was the supervisor for the Sunset and he endorsed a citywide ballot measure where the entire city got to vote on turning the Great Highway into Sunset Dunes Park. And the locals were so pissed off that they recalled Joel and Guardio and the vote wasn't even closed. Then Daniel Lurie decided to appoint his successor with some weird lady from a pet shop. Why because because you can get anything put on a ballot. And enough activists said we need to close the traffic cars because car bad.

00:36:03
Speaker 11: Yeah, well they should just got rid of the guy who made the load. They should just make another petition and open up the highway. Can you guys have a great weekend? Thanks so much?

00:36:15
Speaker 1: All right, you too.

00:36:17
Speaker 5: You could do that.

00:36:19
Speaker 2: You could get enough signatures to get this thing on the ballot once again, but apparently a lot of San Franciscans are just over it and don't want to revisit this issue ever again.

00:36:29
Speaker 1: It's wild to me that the state that essentially produced commuting and fast food, drive through windows and everything that you do in the car, we've become so anti car where we don't want to fix our roads. We don't want to create more parking spots. All we want to do is punish people for driving and try to push them onto the murder trains.

00:36:56
Speaker 5: That is the California Way.

00:37:00
Speaker 1: I can't figure it out, But what do you? What are you gonna do? All Right, the weekend is here. It's gonna be a scorcher. Make sure you drink plenty of fluids. If you're gonna be outdoors, make sure you wear lots of sunblock. I'm gonna be in the Arizona Sun watching the Angels lose a play this weekend, hopefully having a good time.

00:37:27
Speaker 2: Gosh, it's gonna be so hot in San Francisco. It's gonna get up to seventy nine.

00:37:34
Speaker 1: Is that so? Because I read it was pretty toasty in the Bay Area.

00:37:39
Speaker 5: That's hot for San Francisco hitting records.

00:37:42
Speaker 1: All right, We'll see y all on Monday at noon for another edition of The John Phillips Show.
