00:02:36 do you're saying this is a this is a wolf yeah it's called the maned wolf looks more like a fox

00:02:44 right it's got the little foxy feet but he has that wolf body like that tall lanky wolfy head

00:02:52 i love that because that's true a jackal i feel like we need music playing in the background

00:03:01 sometimes like just of our show yeah like just like some kind of like ambient music i don't know

00:03:08 very nice lovely okay so now that that's happening now this is what i'm calling for me maybe i want

00:03:18 to see if you guys feel the same way i feel like this is like our cringy video of the day

00:03:24 and it's featuring uh president trump and cheryl atkinson they had a sit down interview she's

00:03:32 amazing you guys cheryl if you don't follow our own x start immediately um but so remember when

00:03:39 elon came in and we were like you know fort knox and the gold and this and that and then a lot of

00:03:43 us here were like you know did they find it did they find it i just want to play this and then

00:03:48 chat about it um after but oh it's cringy for me okay here we go what happened to the audit of fort

00:03:54 knox which one are you talking about there was i think when you first got into office you and

00:04:01 You and Elon Musk talked about auditing the gold to make sure it's there.

00:04:03 Well, we wanted to go knock on the door, Fort Knox, a very thick door, and to see whether

00:04:08 or not we have any gold in there, because if we take a look at it, it's a very interesting

00:04:13 question.

00:04:13 We played with that.

00:04:16 I wonder if they left the gold in Fort Knox, because they steal a lot.

00:04:20 No need to really do that, though?

00:04:21 Well, I don't know.

00:04:22 I think it's...

00:04:23 I do want to go to Fort Knox sometime.

00:04:25 I want to see if the gold is there, which I'm sure it will be.

00:04:31 oh hello knock knock fort knox oh and come on isn't that bizarre

00:04:39 excuse me it is yeah i mean i think uh you know it was kind of a mystery as to how he he made a

00:04:47 big deal out of saying we're going to fort knox we're doing this audit we're gonna actually see

00:04:51 the gold there and then all of a sudden it just got aborted and i'm kind of wondering if uh i was

00:04:56 wondering at the time like did somebody tell him sir you don't want to do this because it would

00:05:00 caused a lot of problems uh was there ever gold there is there a goal there is the gold gone where

00:05:06 the gold go marcella i've seen stories that other countries at least a couple of them i think have

00:05:13 pulled their gold out of fort knox and so i'm wondering if they're also thinking maybe i don't

00:05:17 want to leave my gold there and i'm not sure what what's happening over there do you think it went

00:05:21 to like william devane and all of his gold commercials that that's where they were taking

00:05:26 it from? I don't know. Good question. Liberty Gold. I am just kidding. Liberty Gold. I don't

00:05:34 even know who you are. I just hear your name. Marcella. I mean, like, weren't we all like

00:05:39 waiting to see this? Well, that's interesting that he, he was, you know, President Trump is usually,

00:05:47 you know, able to answer questions very well. And this question he did not answer very well.

00:05:54 so at least to in my opinion and to me it makes it even more suspicious now it was suspicious

00:06:04 before when they didn't actually follow through but now with his answer it's like yeah now i want

00:06:10 to i really want to know and like i think heraldo should go there with his camera

00:06:14 and watch them knock on the door at fort knox i'm picturing like this whole big vault out in

00:06:19 the middle of the desert just like with a big wheel for a doorknob anyway i didn't like that

00:06:26 i felt like it was cringy i don't know about you guys but now i want to know even more thank you

00:06:33 um oh marcella this clip is for you so you know we always uh would tell you guys how when we went

00:06:40 to california and marcella was was so kind to drive us everywhere in her self-driving car what

00:06:47 What do you call it? Full self-driving. So now my friend Mindy, who you've all heard about, 1.00

00:06:53 she's like, my next car, I'm going to get a Tesla or something similar so it can drive me

00:06:59 everywhere. And Mindy, we all strongly suggest you get the Tesla, not a different brand

00:07:05 because we support Elon. All right. So look at this grandma. She goes for her first full

00:07:13 self-driving uh experiment and this is what it looks like and this is what freaked me out marcella

00:07:20 is because we were you know in your car during the day and at night but at night there's like no

00:07:24 dash lights there's like no dashboard happening it's really strange there's nothing in front of

00:07:29 to you. But here's the cutest grandma. She's like, do I touch the wheel? Now also, let's

00:07:51 just say, God forbid there was an incident. She cannot reach the gas pedal or the steering 0.90

00:07:56 wheel but that's okay uh it makes me nervous marcella what mode did you have yours then

00:08:05 mad max mad max if grandma was a mad max she'd be like oh my god she's probably in standard mode

00:08:14 but it's very safe people think i'm always driving

00:08:21 and at a stop sign they like go go and i'm like my car doesn't go just because you say so and

00:08:29 it's pretty amazing so now marcella is it true that if you're look it's going faster

00:08:37 yeah she's kind of scared she's kind of scared she's like oh gonna hold the door

00:08:42 so isn't it true or is it true if you have a tesla like you don't always need the new tesla

00:08:52 because it's the software that updates right yeah like that particular one is the new model y

00:08:59 and that one at night they have a light all over the car that you can change the color so you'll

00:09:06 like that. The, the old one that I have doesn't have that. So it's completely dark, right?

00:09:14 Yeah. So that's the good thing about it is that once you buy a Tesla, even if you have an older

00:09:21 Tesla, they, once you buy, you have to buy FSD. So you do have to buy it separately from the car

00:09:29 to, you know, while you're, when you buy it, or you can pay a monthly fee. I think it's like

00:09:34 a hundred dollars a month but don't quote me on that but um basically it it gives you the updates

00:09:43 for free sort of like you only have to buy it once you don't have to keep on paying anything

00:09:50 um which is great so an older car will have the new updates as well well but i think they do give

00:09:57 updates but i think i have seen stories that say that older models don't they they aren't capable

00:10:03 of the actual full self-driving like unsupervised full self-driving so i think there is a cutoff

00:10:08 there where some of the newer models have the full the real full self-driving but some of the older

00:10:14 ones are kind of not quite as capable so i think there is a difference but um you know there i'm

00:10:21 sure to some extent what you're saying is true that there are some you know that there are

00:10:27 software updates and a lot of the capabilities could be upgraded um after you buy it so you

00:10:33 know it'll keep getting better as you go but again i think there is some i don't know what i don't

00:10:38 know what the cutoff is or what when they changed over to new hardware but i think it's based on the

00:10:42 ai chip capabilities or whatever it is that some some of them are more capable than others uh yeah

00:10:48 so lang was saying here different number of cameras on old tesla is prohibited so obviously

00:10:53 it needs like many many cameras so anyway if you if you bought a tesla in the last couple of years

00:10:59 with full self-driving you should be set and fine for updates the older ones you probably can't just

00:11:04 add it but you know if you bought one now moving forward you're good to go and if the software

00:11:10 improves it's just a matter of like an update on your computer right marcella yeah download the

00:11:16 update so pretty interesting so everyone make sure mindy gets the message that it must be a tesla

00:11:22 and not like a toyota or something um i like mindy now i really like mindy now if only if

00:11:30 she gets the tesla me maybe yeah yeah yeah see mindy friendships are riding on it um so i just 0.51

00:11:37 thought that was interesting i like seeing her you know like an older woman like a grandma in there

00:11:43 so sweet um all right so we're gonna get on with like the newsy news and marcella is has been out 0.86

00:11:50 on assignment. And she knows, like, she's like, I was like, all right, Marcella, we had like a

00:11:56 newsroom meeting last night. I had the cap on like with the pen in my ear and like the pad and the

00:12:01 paper cigar. And I was like, your beat is California. You got California. You want to

00:12:07 know about the governor, the mayor. We want to know about the fraud. You may want to move states.

00:12:12 So Marcella is definitely covering for us. Oh my God, the fraud, like this crazy fraud,

00:12:20 Not that the fraud is so shocking, but are we going to get paid back?

00:12:24 Let's play a little clip.

00:12:26 And then, Marcella, I want to get paid back.

00:12:28 I know you do.

00:12:29 I want to get paid back for all the fraud we've ever had.

00:12:32 Okay, let's hope that this is the right clip, you guys.

00:12:35 You know how it goes.

00:12:36 Here we go.

00:12:37 In California, the Trump administration says the state owes the federal government more than a billion dollars for health care given to illegal immigrants.

00:12:46 William Lajeunesse has a story from L.A.

00:12:48 Hi, William.

00:12:49 Well, Dana, there are two stories here, right?

00:12:51 One is how rising costs have forced blue states to roll back health care for those without legal status.

00:12:57 The other is the White House crackdown on eligibility.

00:13:01 If states can't confirm those getting care are U.S. citizens, they have to pay the feds back.

00:13:08 We are auditing aggressively, and we don't like what we see.

00:13:11 In March, the Trump administration began auditing states that provide illegal immigrants with routine health care paid for by American taxpayers.

00:13:21 Their findings, seven states and the District of Columbia owe nearly $1.4 billion for using federal, not state, money for immigrant care.

00:13:30 Topping the list, California, followed by New York and Illinois.

00:13:36 Oh, Illinois.

00:13:38 listen it was almost three of us represented but new jersey good for you you're probably fourth

00:13:46 so marcella what the heck is happening i mean it's i hope they they have money to pay for it

00:13:55 there's budget issues in california so basically what it means is that cms is really cracking down

00:14:01 on them using Medicaid funds to pay for non-emergency for illegal immigrants.

00:14:11 So they have a program where federal funds can be used only for emergency services for non-citizens.

00:14:22 But they were using it for regular, allegedly, they were using it for regular services.

00:14:30 So one of the things that came out is that, like he said, CMS preliminary audit identified California as the largest offender, but Illinois is Washington, Oregon, Colorado, D.C. with over $1 billion in question.

00:14:46 Total across states was, so California was the $1 billion, but across states it's about $1.3 billion.

00:14:57 Wow, California.

00:14:59 I know.

00:14:59 jeez yeah it's quite a lot of fraud i think we can like you know maybe balance the budget

00:15:08 with all this crack with the payback yeah so not after you pay back the government

00:15:13 billion dollars well the crackdown is also for future uh items cms and hhs have increased

00:15:23 oversight which does not allow further you know craziness with yeah but if the federal government

00:15:30 was paying for it then they're not going to pay for it anymore so that would be budget neutral

00:15:34 and then you got to find that billion dollars to pay back the federal government that you already

00:15:38 paid out to people so seems like you've got a bigger budget hole to deal with so the billion

00:15:43 has to go back into the tax coffer so to speak right yeah so oh boy oh boy i think this is great

00:15:53 because they'll limit the fraud you know people are going to be afraid well i like how they want

00:15:57 to try to worry about the future for all that they know is coming too so this is why i voted

00:16:04 for trump finally oh and what do you want to say anything more about that that's pretty brutal

00:16:11 i mean i think it's ridiculous it seems like california is by and far the worst offender

00:16:16 um you know certainly illinois is number three on the list i'm not defending them at all but it's

00:16:21 It's not nearly the magnitude of what we're seeing in California.

00:16:24 So I think it's pretty incredible with the level of fraud and the amounts in places like

00:16:30 Minnesota, but it seems like California may be the worst in the country for fraud, just

00:16:35 based on all the stories we're seeing.

00:16:37 Do you think this fraud being brought to light stemmed from Nick Shirley?

00:16:46 I think he definitely played a role in it.

00:16:48 And I know after he was done in Minnesota, he headed out to California, and then they found all these hospice centers and things that were going on.

00:16:54 I think you could argue that the Medicaid to illegal immigrants, you know, I guess you could call it fraud.

00:17:02 I don't know that it was necessarily fraud because it wasn't necessarily like it was a totally fake service in all cases.

00:17:09 I mean, maybe it was in some cases that people were just faking it and submitting Medicaid claims that never were given to anybody.

00:17:15 That would be fraud. But I think some of it might just be that California decided we're just going to give everybody eligibility when that's not really allowed by the law. And so, you know, it's breaking the law, but I don't know if I would necessarily call it fraud. But I think it does seem like even the hospice fraud and all the other kinds of fraud seem to be much bigger in California than anywhere else.

00:17:35 yeah um so you have uh dr oz dr memet oz and uh jd vance i guess they're all like so dr oz is

00:17:47 working on the medicaid fraud vance is working on fraud in general so all right i mean i like

00:17:54 that because the only people working on fraud before were the fraudsters so this is this is a

00:18:00 good turnabout um just to clarify yeah um this particular 1 billion that uh california would owe

00:18:07 to the federal government is not fraud it's just they didn't follow the rules um but it wouldn't

00:18:14 be fraud like owen said but the other thing is that they started this preliminary audit cms started

00:18:21 it uh in the middle uh late to 2025 before the nick shirley stuff so it was an ongoing thing

00:18:29 It's just, I think it was always ongoing, even under Biden. It's just nobody cracked down.

00:18:34 Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. I'm just like, yeah. I like, you know, I want to say so many things,

00:18:40 but it doesn't matter. It's just my personal emotions again. So, well, this is good. I mean,

00:18:47 I think one thing will lead to another, to another, it will have a snowball effect and,

00:18:52 you know exposing it is good um all right so owen i want to toss over to you for uh one of your

00:19:00 news stories that you're covering for us today when you travel well your klm royal dutch airlines

00:19:05 ticket takes you to more than just your destination it takes you to front row views

00:19:11 voices lost in the music and new shared memories and when the last song fades welcome aboard

00:19:19 The KLM Royal Dutch Airlines crew is here to ensure your journey home hits all the right nuts.

00:19:28 KLM Royal Dutch Airlines. When you travel, travel well.

00:19:32 Behind every F-35 jet is a Canadian company.

00:19:35 Horizontal tails built in Winnipeg, engine sensors from Ottawa,

00:19:38 and stealth composite panels crafted in Lunenburg to name just a few.

00:19:42 Thanks to thousands of skilled Canadian workers,

00:19:44 the F-35 aircraft is delivering unmatched capabilities for 20 allied nations around the world

00:19:48 and will generate more than $15.5 billion in industrial value for Canada.

00:20:03 Sure. So there's a story about an angry mom that defeated a data center. 0.97

00:20:08 This was in Wisconsin, and apparently she was an activist,

00:20:14 um had did some organizing before relating to environmental things and multiple sclerosis and

00:20:21 things like that but um she learned about this data center proposal that was 12 miles away from

00:20:27 where she was living and didn't like that idea and decided to try and fight it she started some

00:20:31 kind of facebook group to inform people about it and it got like 2 000 members within the first two

00:20:38 days. And as of now, it's like 3,700 people. And she got a bunch of publicity. And then the

00:20:45 facility got shut down. The place, I think it's a development firm, Cloverleaf, withdrew its plans.

00:20:53 So they had a lack of support from local officials. So it seems like this woman made 1.00

00:20:56 a big difference and got rid of the AI data center that was planned for Wisconsin. 0.99

00:21:01 You know, it makes a difference. The pushback's uncomfortable for these people. And I know we

00:21:05 have one scheduled to go in in Marlboro, New Jersey. So if anyone lives over there, I know

00:21:12 they're making a big stink about it. Join in on the stink because look, this woman, you know, 1.00

00:21:17 because she just wouldn't give up, they gave up. So make a stink if you need to. Go ahead, Owen. 1.00

00:21:23 Sorry, I cut you off. No, I mean, and I think for people who might be interested in this or fighting

00:21:28 it, I think a lot of it has to do with power costs in terms of the energy costs of these data

00:21:34 centers that it might be borne out by the taxpayers or by the people using utility payers

00:21:39 where it can certainly jack up the energy prices. And also there is a water concern in terms of how

00:21:48 much water it's using. So depending on how much water supply you have in your area, that may be

00:21:53 an issue as well. I think it's maybe less of an issue for people like me near Chicago because

00:21:56 we've got this big lake right next to us of fresh water. But in many parts of the country,

00:22:00 it's much more scarce and might be a bigger issue to say if they're using a bunch of the water that

00:22:05 means they're taking it away from someone else um so you know i'm not necessarily anti-data center

00:22:11 but i you know totally understand why someone might not want one in their backyard and well

00:22:16 yeah let's not want to pay for it let's talk about that owen because i see people in the chat saying

00:22:20 like you know why do you want to kill our future and whatever you have to understand you guys

00:22:24 they're building these data centers basically on the edges of neighborhoods the noise the light

00:22:32 pollution the noise pollution um and like owen said like draining of resources uh like the you

00:22:40 know the one place they wanted to put it you know cuts off like a natural water flow you know like

00:22:45 a stream that delivers water and well water and this and that like it's really it's really a

00:22:51 a disruption. It's not like you're just putting in a building. You're creating this small city

00:22:57 in one building is the way I'm seeing it and all of the pollution. So now these people live there.

00:23:03 They're like, oh my God, they can't even go out in their backyard. So now there goes their real

00:23:09 estate. They can't even sell and get out. They're not going to make any money. So they either live

00:23:15 with it, they lose their money in their real estate. So it's a big disruptor. There's got to be

00:23:20 a better way, a better place, a better design. I mean, people are creative. So if anyone's out

00:23:27 there and they're like, wait, I want to come up with a better design. But Owen, don't you think

00:23:31 that's the gist of what's happening? It's like where they're building them and then

00:23:34 all the infrastructure problems they're causing. Yeah. I mean, the Trump administration has at

00:23:40 least tried to get some agreement with these different data center providers or with the

00:23:44 hyperscalers, the AI companies that they should provide their own power and not just

00:23:49 take it from the people around and make everything more expensive. I'm not sure if that's

00:23:54 always happening. So that's one question. I do think it makes sense that whoever is building

00:24:01 or using the data center should be the ones bearing the brunt of the cost and not putting

00:24:05 it on the people that live there. But I think there are all sorts of technological developments

00:24:11 coming. I post stories on a regular basis. I think I posted at least one today about some new

00:24:16 technology i think it was some kind of copper tubing or something for um heat exchange that

00:24:21 would potentially reduce the energy cost by like 98 or something so there there are potential

00:24:27 developments that might make it much less of an issue from an energy perspective and i personally

00:24:32 don't put as much stock in the water issue just because people treat water when they talk about

00:24:38 it like that like it's a one-time resource like as if the water goes away it's like no the water

00:24:44 is recycled and it goes back into the environment and um but i do understand that you know if

00:24:50 they're taking millions of gallons of clean water out of the treated water then that is a limited

00:24:56 resource and you need to take that into account to say you can't just allocate a whole bunch of

00:25:00 it to a new data center and not have any impact on what was happening before and again in many

00:25:06 areas of the country they are having droughts they're having problems with water supply and so

00:25:11 it's a much bigger issue and so you may need to just pick the right places to say where is there

00:25:15 plenty of water like Chicago where you can say there's a big lake we can just pump more of it

00:25:20 and it's not such a big deal and it's not going to raise the price a lot but I do think all these

00:25:25 things should be taken into account and I think we should certainly be prioritizing whatever

00:25:29 technological developments we can to make it energy efficient and to make it not impact people

00:25:34 and to your point if there is noise or light pollution or other things then those should be

00:25:37 taken into account as well, where you don't want to impact someone's lifestyle or joy of life

00:25:44 just by putting this big data center right next to where they live. 0.89

00:25:48 And their real estate value too, that just sucks. It's like so many people are impacted by one of

00:25:53 these buildings. And I'm not saying they're not important, but I feel like I always want to

00:25:57 propose to our New Jersey politicians, whoever, that you have to stop tearing down forests and

00:26:06 all this stuff to put new plazas in of all things or new condos. I feel like you should have to take

00:26:12 a dilapidated place that has like one store open in the whole plaza. You have to take that place,

00:26:19 knock it all down, rebuild, do something like that. So do that like with a data center,

00:26:23 like somewhere that's already commercial property. Even if you have to make like

00:26:28 two smaller ones instead of one giant one, then do that. But the way they're infringing just

00:26:34 kind of stinks you know what you guys because like we complain about you know half the people

00:26:38 complain about pollution the environment whatever um and then other people are like you know we want

00:26:45 to go back to the old days like me um and be more nostalgic but yes like the world keeps moving

00:26:51 forward but you know we can't just pollute everything because time's marching on you know

00:26:59 we i think we just have to take a beat and i just think that there's really really really really

00:27:02 smart people who could come up with a better way to do these data centers before they all

00:27:07 get plopped in in places and then they'll never be taken out um i don't know i think we are going

00:27:13 a little too fast personally marcella do you want to say anything about this well i i want more data

00:27:19 centers i want data centers everywhere but i i think wisconsin that lady i wonder who was behind

00:27:26 her a lot of these data center uh issues that you're talking about i feel like china would

00:27:33 would benefit from us not building as many data centers but you know there are issues i give you

00:27:39 that there's noise issues uh there is not all of them have the noise issue but there are some that

00:27:46 do they're just businesses they're trying to do business in different places and every you know

00:27:53 know it's local you know they get to decide whether they want it there or not but one of the

00:27:59 things that they need is power and nuclear should be an option you know um that hasn't been open

00:28:06 to them you know i maybe owen has more information on that but that it probably would be the solution

00:28:13 to this water issue or you know how to power them yeah i mean again i i'm all for technological

00:28:20 solutions wherever we can get that and reduce the energy impact reduce the water impact other

00:28:26 things i think um some many of those things are possible and again i'm not against data centers

00:28:30 i'm not like fighting for you know stopping all new data centers same partly i'm just reporting

00:28:35 the news this is not just an isolated case like this is happening all over the country where

00:28:39 people are fighting back against these data centers and i think it's something like 40 percent

00:28:43 of them have been either delayed or canceled so this is a huge trend that people are fighting

00:28:47 back against these things so even if you're pro data center you you should at least be aware that

00:28:53 there's a lot of pushback being generated against these things and there are a lot of people that

00:28:58 are fighting back and saying i don't want it in my neighborhood i don't want it in my state

00:29:01 you know or i don't want it at all but um it is a big impact and it may be a factor in terms of even

00:29:07 how much we can scale ai and how are how competitive we can be compared to other countries 0.79

00:29:12 because i doubt we have these same issues in china you know china just decides what they want 0.96

00:29:17 to do and they build a whole bunch of stuff and nobody gets the right to push back the way they

00:29:20 can in the United States. Okay. Well, I'm looking at, you know, the, the comments are completely

00:29:27 all mixed, which they should be, you know, they should be because everybody has different interests

00:29:31 and different information. Um, and we all live in different parts of the country. And I, you know,

00:29:37 I see some people have water issues. I have said, put them in all the public schools that need to

00:29:42 be shut down. You know, I love it. I love it. I mean, there's areas in the United States that

00:29:51 have no one in it, you know, and has water. So I don't know why they're trying to put it in

00:29:57 certain areas where there's people or whatever, you know. And they don't Alcatraz. Put them in

00:30:02 Alcatraz. And there's not many people, right, Owen, in a data center? Like there's not like

00:30:07 employees, like two people in each one or something. Yeah. I mean, that may be one of

00:30:10 the arguments about why they want it to be in a particular area. They want it to be near people

00:30:14 so they can find people to work there. But I think I saw a metric recently that there was

00:30:18 somewhere around $50 million of spending to generate one job

00:30:22 in a data center. So it's a limited number of jobs.

00:30:27 And now, again, that doesn't mean there's only one person in the data center, but it does mean

00:30:30 it's not like this massive army of people. It's not like a factory where you have

00:30:34 assembly lines full of people doing things. It's basically a pretty low

00:30:38 touch from a human perspective. You set it up once and then it runs for a long time and you

00:30:43 need a few people to swap out whatever breaks, but otherwise it pretty much operates 24 seven

00:30:47 on its own. And so it's a relatively small impact from a jobs perspective relative to the amount of

00:30:53 investment that you're making. Okay. Well, this is like a perfect little segue for me. So I'm

00:31:00 doing a news story. No. So I, a lot of you that have known me for a while know that I was speaking

00:31:08 of China, that this is like a very important issue to me. And I don't know how many people

00:31:13 here know who Jimmy Lai is. You spell the last name L-A-I, Jimmy Lai. So I asked Chester to help

00:31:22 me write up like the things I want you to understand about him. And then I want to play a

00:31:26 clip. Okay. So this is Jimmy Lai. He was born in mainland China in 1947 and fled to Hong Kong as a

00:31:35 stowaway at age 12, escaping poverty and political turmoil during the Mao era.

00:31:41 He worked in factories, built a successful clothing business with the Giordano retail

00:31:47 chain, and later founded Apple Daily, which is a newspaper, in 1995. The newspaper became

00:31:55 widely known for investigative reporting and for criticizing corruption, abuses of power,

00:32:00 and the growing influence of Beijing over Hong Kong while advocating for free speech and democratic

00:32:07 freedoms. So what you need to know too. So if you don't understand, I mean, I did not know all this

00:32:14 before I was invited to a private screening of the documentary about Jimmy Lai a couple of years ago.

00:32:20 And I met some of his family and people who, you know, he was their mentor and people that

00:32:26 are in the documentary. Um, but what, all right. So he says as China, all right. So as China's

00:32:32 government increased its control over Hong Kong, uh, many residents believe Beijing was violating

00:32:38 the original handover agreement. Um, I want to, I just want to tell you guys, let me just see if I

00:32:43 have this here. Okay. So this is what I want you to know, cause this is what I did not know at

00:32:47 first. Okay. So Hong Kong was controlled by great Britain for more than 150 years after the British

00:32:55 took it from China during the opium wars. In 1997, Britain handed Hong Kong back to China

00:33:03 under an agreement called One Country, Two Systems, which promised Hong Kong could keep its own courts,

00:33:12 free press, open economy, and civil liberties for 50 years until 2047. The agreement was intended

00:33:20 to preserve Hong Kong's freedoms while still making it part of China. So Hong Kong went from

00:33:28 this old world, just kind of very, very poor area into almost like a Dubai. So they got these 0.53

00:33:39 freedoms. They turned into like a Dubai. I mean, I have family and friends. It was on my bucket 0.56

00:33:43 list to travel there gorgeous like whole like metropolitan amazingness so um so as china so

00:33:51 then the last part as china's government increased its control over hong kong many residents believe

00:33:57 beijing was violating the original handover agreement tensions escalated and in 2019

00:34:04 over a proposed extradition law that would have allowed hong kong residents to be sent to mainland

00:34:10 China for trial. Millions protested, viewing the law as a threat to Hong Kong's judicial

00:34:16 independence and civil liberties. So China just started creeping back in. And these people were

00:34:23 living in a freedom, almost like America. Whatever Britain had, they had. They had

00:34:29 free speech to an extent. I mean, they did. And civil liberties and all that stuff. And so when

00:34:36 Jimmy Lai started this paper in 95, he was just, he's telling the truth about everything, criticizing

00:34:43 China, if he had to, whatever it was. So then China starts creeping back into Hong Kong. And

00:34:48 now they're saying like, well, maybe we're going to take you from Hong Kong now and bring you to

00:34:52 China and put you in our courts and see what we think about you. So I remember this during the

00:34:58 pandemic that these uprisings started in Hong Kong and there was protests in the street and they were

00:35:04 you know very brave very very brave to be in hong kong and say like f you to china you know

00:35:11 we want to you know we're supposed to be here at least till 2047 that was the agreement so um

00:35:17 anyway so jimmy lie openly supported the protest movement and after china imposed the national

00:35:24 security law in 2020 apple daily his newspaper was forced to shut down and lie was arrested

00:35:31 multiple times and he remains in prison today under the security law but it's so much worse i

00:35:37 mean you guys i'm definitely going to ask you to please help me amplify this message because

00:35:45 president trump is going to china he promised before he got elected so many people said to him

00:35:52 please you have to get jimmy lie out of prison he's he's old now he has diabetes not only that

00:35:59 they've had him in solitary confinement for five years like solitary confinement for five years

00:36:07 he has a family he has a wife and if you ever cared about freedom or like somebody that you

00:36:15 see that cares the most about democracy and freedom he is the poster man of this um what

00:36:23 he risks so i want to play you a little clip um this clip is from his documentary it's just kind

00:36:29 of edited together and uh let's talk about him on the other side i was one of the review guy

00:36:36 who was very controversial who was very outspoken living in the truth is an effective tool against

00:36:45 totalitarian power speaking truth to power is something that powerful dictatorships

00:36:52 are terrified by and i think jimmy understood that that's why he started the paper that's why

00:36:58 he kept it that's why he made it into essentially a part of the movement everybody was so chicken

00:37:06 out so scared that they went into self-censorship to avoid offending the communists so many

00:37:16 businessmen keep quiet because they have investments in China. So Hong Kong people

00:37:22 always have a soft spot for a guy willing to speak out as Jimmy does. 0.90

00:37:27 It's almost certain that they would put me in jail.

00:37:30 When he was arrested, he was shackled and perp-walked through his own offices.

00:37:35 Anything I have is this place. This place is freedom. I owe freedom my life.

00:37:46 This man is so amazing. You guys, I remember when I was invited to this documentary,

00:38:00 I called Scott. I'm like, okay, I'm going to see this thing with these people. I'm like really

00:38:05 excited. And then we talked about, he didn't know about Jimmy Lai at that point. And then after I

00:38:10 was just like, Oh, like we have to do whatever we can. And it's just, it's amazing because if you

00:38:16 go on to X or Google and you start to look him up, you will, a lot of people are really rooting for

00:38:22 him. There's a lot of very big voices. Um, they asked president Trump about Jimmy lie, I think

00:38:28 again, yesterday in the oval. Um, and you know, he said, I'll, you know, I'm going to look into

00:38:33 it. Yeah. You know, he's a great guy. I'll look into it. I'll look into it, but I just don't feel

00:38:37 like it's urgent enough. This man literally did nothing but stand up to communism and stand for

00:38:45 truth and freedom. So I will also, maybe Sandy in the chat, you can help me, but there's an

00:38:52 amazing documentary. It's free. It's on YouTube. It's called The Hong Kongers. And it's the story

00:38:58 about what's going on with China and Jimmy Lai. And if you want to watch a great documentary,

00:39:03 it's free and just click play on it. And, you know, it's really fascinating. So please help

00:39:08 me amplify this message about Jimmy Lai. There's other journalists and reporters that were also

00:39:14 imprisoned, but they wanted to really make an example out of him. So please help me help Jimmy

00:39:21 Lai. And let's get a message to President Trump while he's negotiating for things. Get this man

00:39:28 out of prison. It's disgusting at this point. All right. Thank you for your attention to this

00:39:32 matter i was one of the refugees okay so that was that now i'm gonna move back over um i don't know

00:39:39 if you guys want to say anything about him or just go on to the next story either way is fine

00:39:43 just uh president trump release uh make chi release jimmy li you know that's what we want

00:39:52 we want him to be released yeah and also possibly to leave that hong kong area i don't know

00:40:01 because that's the thing is once he's released is this is are things going to change for him

00:40:06 i don't know yeah he has a wife and kids and you know like you just saw bill mcgern on there from

00:40:12 wall street journal uh is he wall street journal or the post i forgot but anyway i'm friends with

00:40:18 him on x and a couple other people that were in his documentary and we're just like rooting and

00:40:24 praying and whatever but when you see this documentary and i think some of you will watch

00:40:29 it, I hope. You're going to just be so outraged that this injustice is happening. So please,

00:40:35 thank you. This is like a personal plea from me to you. Owen, anything about this?

00:40:42 I mean, I support what you're saying. And I don't know if I have much to add. I hope he is released.

00:40:47 And I think it's a big injustice. And I'm hoping that the Hong Kong people can maintain their

00:40:52 sovereignty as best they can. I think it's a tough situation given how big China is and how

00:40:57 much influence they have and i'm not necessarily optimistic about that front but i you know i can

00:41:01 certainly hope that things will get better for them yeah and you know what great britain like

00:41:07 get it together you know like what are you doing all right so let's move on um marcella let's come

00:41:14 to you with your next uh news update thanks you guys um a news update well like we were saying

00:41:23 Trump is going to visit China. He said about Jimmy Lai, he's going to raise it to the Chinese

00:41:30 leadership. But not only that, he's leaving today for the summit to meet Chinese President

00:41:36 Xi Jinping. And sorry if I mispronounced that. Anybody in the chat?

00:41:41 No, you're good.

00:41:42 Reuters reports that Elon, Tim Cook, and Boeing CEO Kelly Ertberg, gosh, are joining

00:41:52 president trump's 16 ceo delegation to china for trade uh trade talks um and the visit will highlight

00:42:00 u.s companies um the elephant in the room or the lack thereof is the nvidia ceo jensen huang

00:42:09 is notably absent and uninvited the white house says that the reason is because it's gonna center

00:42:18 it's CEO talk or business talk with agriculture and aviation but Tim Cook is there so and so is

00:42:27 Elon so who knows yeah Elon's there too huh so I don't know why Huang maybe Owen knows more but

00:42:35 about why he was not invited I don't know I mean I know they've had controversy around the

00:42:41 exports of the Nvidia chips so there may be some reason why they didn't want to do it I know there's

00:42:47 been back and forth on that it seemed like the way it played out was originally there was

00:42:51 restrictions on nvidia chips being sold to china and then that was relaxed but then china just

00:42:57 turned around and said we're not buying them so it seemed like they were going their own direction

00:43:02 and developing their own chips um and so it seemed like it was going in a weird weird direction so

00:43:07 maybe there just isn't as much opportunity there on the nvidia side but i think um certainly it

00:43:12 does seem like the technology you know front is front and center as one of the issues given that

00:43:18 elon and tim cook are invited so i would imagine that's going to be a big part of the agenda

00:43:23 yeah and elon does a lot of business with china so it's good for him to show up i suppose um i

00:43:32 don't know good for who but it's good all right um so we're looking forward to see what happens

00:43:39 with that with that uh visit to chi okay oh and what do you have for us

00:43:45 so apparently there are kids that are bypassing online age verification checks with fake mustaches

00:43:53 um this is a trend that a lot of um governments around the world are cracking down on age

00:44:00 verification um i think it's bigger in the uk than it is here i think it became law with their

00:44:06 online safety act in 2023 over in the uk but it is happening here too i think louisiana passed

00:44:11 something it's more specific to online content like our adult content meaning like porn sites

00:44:16 and things like that but i think um you know this is a trend and but apparently the kids are onto it

00:44:21 and they're just using like eyeliner pencils from their parents to draw on a mustache and and it's

00:44:26 fooling a lot of the online age verification checks oh my god they're also using like video

00:44:33 game characters and other things to try and fake out these things but it seems like they're

00:44:37 outsmarting the the ai left and right with some of these things so i just find it kind of funny

00:44:42 that's hysterical yeah so i mean you know there's obviously different perspectives on whether or not

00:44:49 we should have this kind of policy or whether or not it can work i think um you know in the united

00:44:54 states certainly there's a lot of pushback around it just to say you know we shouldn't have

00:44:59 restrictions i mean that you again can go both ways i think most people would say we don't want

00:45:04 kids seeing offensive adult content but um given the nature of age verification what that really

00:45:13 means is you have to identify who you are to all these websites and so it basically de-anonymizes

00:45:20 the internet which is a huge issue in itself so um you know that i think is gets a lot of pushback

00:45:26 especially in the united states and you know there's a lot of things on both sides of that but

00:45:31 um it seems like it's the kids are kind of outsmarting them with all these things in terms

00:45:36 of just being able to find ways to get the online systems to think that they're older than they are

00:45:42 and uh so it's not really as effective as they were hoping it would be at this point that's

00:45:46 amazing um so can you two indulge me with another story look at me jumping all in on the news today

00:45:53 um the la mayor i don't know if you want to talk about the la mayor race the california

00:45:58 gubernatorial race or katia's mayor let's do governor and mayor just kind of like quick

00:46:03 little updates on that so we know for cal this is california guys yeah of course it's california

00:46:10 um um la mayor um race it looks good for spencer pratt now he's 28 implied probability of winning

00:46:18 And this is just in Polymarket.

00:46:21 However, on Polymarket, Karen Bass is 50% to 53% probability of winning on the June 2nd primary.

00:46:31 The last polls, I tried to find any polls that are current.

00:46:35 They were from March.

00:46:38 And it had Karen Bass at 53 and Spencer Pratt at 31.

00:46:43 Um, very similar to what poly market is saying, um, in regards to the California gubernatorial

00:46:51 race, we have better news.

00:46:53 Well, it's not so good news in the, um, poly market, uh, predictive prediction markets,

00:47:00 but in regards to the poll, a poll just came out having Hilton, Steve Hilton, the Republican,

00:47:07 Uh, 22% Becerra, the Democrat at 20%, Steyer, Democrat at 14% and Bianco.

00:47:14 The other Republican, uh, 13%, um, Newsweek highlighted in regards to

00:47:22 the governor race, they highlighted that Becerra seems to be the favorite right

00:47:28 now at 49% on Polymarket and Calci while Steyer, um, is, is behind.

00:47:37 Um, but Steve Hilton in regards to the primaries is also, um, I didn't

00:47:45 understand this.

00:47:45 So in regards to the regular race, um, the Sarah was above, um, Steve Hilton,

00:47:53 but in regards to the June 2nd primary, Steve Hilton had 83% chance

00:47:57 to advance. So that's very good. So the, I, I'm happy that, um, Steve Hilton is leading.

00:48:05 He's doing great. He's doing great. Um, we need to see him more, you know, in California. Um,

00:48:13 maybe, maybe it's, maybe he shouldn't be, I mean, it's working, whatever he's doing,

00:48:17 keep doing it. And then Arcadia, California, I think some of you know about the story,

00:48:22 the mayor of uh arcadia california where i kind of like lived in that area for a long time

00:48:30 um she uh was she pled guilty uh i her name's eileen wong and she pled to being an illegal

00:48:42 agent for the people's republic of china china um this is after i mean it took a while because

00:48:53 this was disclosed yesterday but her fiance had um had been um found guilty um no i'm sorry he had

00:49:04 he faces, uh, he already had been serving for years. It doesn't, the story didn't say whether

00:49:12 he, his, her fiance was, um, I would just say he had pled guilty or was found guilty, but that was

00:49:20 back in 2024, 2025. So the FBI was already on her about what had occurred. So one of the things

00:49:29 that came out is that China would tell her what propaganda to put on the daily newspaper for

00:49:43 Acadia. Like any kind of bad press on China, they would not put it. They would put good press

00:49:52 about China. And, uh, that's one of the things that she was paid for. Uh, she was actually 0.71

00:49:59 released on bond for, for $25,000. So she's out on bond right now. And she faces 10 years in prison,

00:50:08 federal prison. So good. Good. And she should, and California has a Chinese spy problem.

00:50:15 diane yeah and the uk too i hear there's an issue with the ambassador of china of china

00:50:24 in the uk so strange it's so strange isn't it i mean who would have thought

00:50:30 that china would be infiltrating with spies odd um yeah what was her diane feinstein r.i.p um

00:50:38 and swalwell who i hear might be getting 40 years in jail if you know blah blah blah marcella i

00:50:46 know allegedly opinion law court trials but i was like what 40 years i saw 40 years somewhere for

00:50:54 some of the stuff he's done i'm like i'm not shedding a tear for him but anyway

00:50:58 owen do you have a spy we don't know are you a spy i don't think so but we met owen and they

00:51:07 would always say no shame to the Chinese people but Owen might be Chinese I'm just saying go

00:51:12 ahead as far as I know I have no Chinese in my background I've been to China one time so I guess

00:51:19 you can count that against me oh yeah nobody goes to China Owen okay one time just to get your 1.00

00:51:24 orders yeah but um it does seem like it's a big problem it seems like it's been infiltrating our

00:51:31 government all over the place and I think again California seems to be the worst so congratulations 0.99

00:51:36 Marcella you know it does seem like they're the California seems a lot friendlier towards China

00:51:43 than most other states and uh has a lot of things going on there that they shouldn't and I think it's

00:51:47 a big problem in our universities I think we have a lot of people spying on us through all of our

00:51:52 all the graduate research and things that are going on with the I think we call it the thousand

00:51:55 talents program um but it's essentially a way of just scooping up all of our research and getting

00:52:01 it back to the Chinese government so I think we should put a stop to all of it I agree Stephen

00:52:06 Lang, you've been to China over 40 times. And yes, as Steve Cortez pointed out on this show 0.75

00:52:14 and his documentary about all of the students from China booting out the American students' 0.86

00:52:20 chances of getting into even their state colleges. It's just, I don't know. I don't know why we, 0.84

00:52:27 I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. Let's see what happens after this visit. I just don't

00:52:32 now oh my gosh all right owen give us give us a tidbit would you would you uh keir starmer is in

00:52:41 a lot of trouble um apparently you know he's been under a lot of pressure for a variety of reasons

00:52:46 i think partly it's the whole mass you know mass immigration issue and um just a lot of activists

00:52:51 and marches and things going on against what he's been doing there letting all these foreigners in

00:52:56 um but then more recently there was the whole epstein thing where he had appointed somebody

00:53:00 that was a friend of Epstein and got in a lot of trouble for that.

00:53:04 So it seems like, and then more recently than that,

00:53:06 they had an election and the Labor Party just lost massively

00:53:10 at the ballot box.

00:53:11 So they lost a bunch of positions.

00:53:13 And I think at this point they're thinking he's about to quit.

00:53:16 But he came out and gave some speech about this specter

00:53:21 of far-right extremists and things trying to treat it

00:53:26 as this big threat and it's dangerous.

00:53:28 And let's say he said, we're not just facing dangerous times, but dangerous opponents, very dangerous opponents.

00:53:36 So he's trying to save himself by calling out the far right as if that's the problem.

00:53:43 But again, there's speculation that he might be resigning sometime soon.

00:53:47 Wow.

00:53:47 I think it can't come sooner.

00:53:50 I agree.

00:53:50 Not negative for that country and for us.

00:53:53 So I agree and good and good riddance, I hope.

00:53:57 Um, so to Marcella and Owen, I'm just throwing this out there because somebody mentioned it in

00:54:03 the chat and yes, you guys. So the clock ran out for Fauci, right. For, uh, the statute of

00:54:10 limitations for him to be charged, um, for all of his wrongdoings. And I'm not going to say

00:54:19 allegedly because it's true. So, um, I don't know what, yeah, what does happen now? Do either of

00:54:27 did either of you happen to read any of that i mean i i saw that like now people are going to be

00:54:32 having like whistleblowers coming out and talking about things from behind the scenes

00:54:37 you know great that's really courageous now that the time ran out but what do we think is going to

00:54:41 happen next with uh with everything we know now about the vaccines and covet and the lying

00:54:48 stella just took a header right on to me well i mean you hope something happens but i i feel like

00:54:55 you know ran paul is all by himself like hopefully something does happen um and so this doesn't occur

00:55:03 again i but can you prosecute him under that statute no um but you can make him come to

00:55:14 to testify again and maybe he can lie again allegedly well somebody was saying and i've

00:55:20 seen this also that you actually i forgot you can be um prosecuted for murder so if there are murder

00:55:29 charges that's that's a workaround and i would say that that happened but yeah i mean you still have

00:55:34 that pardon issue but then you have the auto pen uh capacity issues so then you'd have to bring

00:55:42 biden and the democrats down from there to show that he had no capacity which i don't know if

00:55:48 president trump is ready to do i mean i i did post a story today or yesterday about um how the

00:55:55 doj is still considering starting a criminal investigation against fauci um there's of course

00:56:00 potential for state offenses that are not you know covered by the federal pardons so it may be

00:56:05 something that could be doing done at the state level um and i think there there is from a statute

00:56:11 of limitations standpoint he could still be charged for lying to congress in 2024 because

00:56:16 there, he said he didn't use his personal email for NIH business, which was a lie.

00:56:20 So there's still some potential that he could be prosecuted, but I'm not really hopeful.

00:56:26 And I think the pardon thing might be one of the factors that, you know, I mean, I do

00:56:33 think we probably should test it and see if we can get it done.

00:56:36 But it could be something that some people don't want to test because they don't want

00:56:40 to necessarily open the door to saying, you know, now we have legitimacy tests for pardons

00:56:44 Or on the other side, they could say we don't want, you know, to potentially open the door for all sorts of other pardons to be questioned in the future.

00:56:52 So I unfortunately don't think it's going to happen, but I would certainly like to see it happen.

00:56:59 Yeah, I know.

00:57:03 I'm curious just because I did hear like now that that ran out, there'll be whistleblowers, let's say.

00:57:09 But I'm like, you should have blew your whistle a long time ago, people.

00:57:12 interesting timing if they come out now yeah of course well i mean he could still be prosecuted

00:57:19 in in a state you know depending on the state change the they can change uh no criminally

00:57:27 oh criminally i mean i remember new york changing such limitations for certain sa stuff for trump

00:57:36 and just so that they could prosecute him or try to or no i guess it was civilly

00:57:43 um but i i know somebody mentioned florida sorry i'm laughing because somebody posted

00:57:50 a picture of owen as chinese but uh um florida de santos governor de santos did say that he

00:58:00 was looking into prosecution for Fauci, but it has not been done. This is before the attorney

00:58:07 general, the new attorney general in Florida was appointed. So maybe they are still looking into

00:58:14 it. I don't know. What comment did you guys want me to see? I see you telling me to look at it,

00:58:20 but I don't know which one it is. Let's see. Didn't DeSantis have a legal case against Fauci

00:58:28 in florida according to grok he does not okay i never heard that um dang marianne said he's the

00:58:37 criminal at least in criminal wise okay um all right you guys so yes andy right on time i'm i'm

00:58:46 i think i think we're good unless either one of you want to add anything to anything about anything

00:58:51 feel free to do it now yeah um just check out the hong conners by for rude regards to jimmy lie

00:58:59 and then post on x or wherever you post blue sky i know a lot of you do post things about jimmy lie

00:59:28 know, it's, it's such a, it's such a well done documentary and he's such an incredible man. And

00:59:36 it breaks my heart every day when i think about him and his his um faith and his uh religion
