And I bring this up because this brought to mind the storm of immigrants that we had here in this country during the Biden years. And it affected California. I mean, we had these kind of surges coming into California. They certainly had it the worst in Texas. I mean, you remember, like they had 11,000 Haitians hiding under, I think, an overpass. And they would come across the Rio Grande River and, you know, the whole story. But I just had flashbacks to that. Bill Malusian for Fox News, he covered that border for several years. And he was saying he had flashbacks looking at these videos. And this is why. Because I'm afraid, you know, it's been a couple of years since Trump shut the border down. And people forget. just how effective this was, how important it was, how necessary it was, because otherwise we'd have what you saw between Morocco and Spain yesterday is the kind of chaos that would have continued here. And it's obviously overwhelmed a lot of our systems. And it's had a lot of... Domino effects, you know, we had to get ice on the case. And that caused a lot of controversy because there's no easy way to get these people out of the country. There's no way to afford them. I mean, we have blown, now we're blowing like $13 billion a year on illegal alien health care. And it's just impossible. It's not sustainable. I don't want to hear any thought, well, what are these people are going to are supposed to do? They just want to work. It's like, yeah, but we can't afford it. We don't have the room in the schools. We don't have the housing for them. You know, with Xavier Becerra running now, we're hearing about how he lost hundreds of thousands of kids when he was running, health and human services. You know, there's just, there's just reality. that is so difficult to deal with, impossible to deal with, really. Of course, you're going to lose hundreds of thousands of kids, right? Of course you're going to spend billions of dollars on health care. Of course, the schools will be overwhelmed. You know, they had 200,000, I think, in New York City. You're going to end up with more homeless people. Everything about it is a mess. You have to have orderly migration. You can have immigration. It has to be 100% legal. It has to be 100% orderly. anything less and you get what you're seeing in Spain and it's like I'm you know in a way I'm glad this happened because I you know it's funny Spain made it clear to these people that we're not putting up with this and let me see I think about 40,000 already went back home that doesn't happen here Until Trump came along, and when he closed the border and started sending ice running around, people started self-deporting by the hundreds of thousands. It does work. The two countries are Ceuta and Malila, and they're both cities.

Part of Spain in northern Morocco, they both have about 85,000 people, and they have a land border with Morocco. And there is fencing up, I guess, in some areas. But once this Supreme Court ruling came out and everybody misunderstood it, you know, that's what caused the frenzy. Now, some people died. because migrants started swimming and floating on tubes and breaking through a gate and some of them drowned. Others were killed in a stampede. There's another thing. A stampede. So. Other European countries are suspending, because normally the EU has an open border. I think there's 32 EU nations, and you can cross, if you're a citizen of any one of the countries, you can cross unmolested into any of the other countries. You can live and work and move to. buy property in any of the countries. It's like, it's kind of like a version of the United States, but it's the Union of Europe. And but the other countries didn't want any part of this. They didn't want these people getting European Union rights. And so France was sealing its border with Spain. Italy said it was suspending the free movement and passport free travel for flights from Spain because they figured these Moroccans are going to end up finding a way to their countries and because of the way the EU system is structured. Italy and France doesn't want to find out that they have to house these people and pay for these people. And it's almost entirely, to me, it looks like young men. So you know that's trouble. Any group of young men... From any culture, they come in by the tens of thousands. You are going to have a lot of crime and a lot of disorder. That's what young guys do, especially if they're not particularly skilled, not educated. A lot of these guys, I'm sure, are coming allegedly to work, but you get a lot of troublemakers. And you have to sort that out by having a legal immigration system. I mean, it's also obvious, common sense, logical. But all that logic and common sense was suspended for four years with Biden. And, you know, Trump was carrying on about it this morning. And he's absolutely right. I think 48,000 had crossed back voluntarily to Mexico. You know, people died 57, mostly by drowning. I mean, it's just a completely crazy scene.

But, you know, I didn't know like Spain had these little tiny towns, part of their property, almost like on Moroccan property. You know, who else has that is Russia. Russia has little pockets of Russian towns inside, not inside, but bordering on some of the other Eastern European countries there. And they're usually Russian speaking. and Russian ethnicity. All right. Coming up after 3.30, I just found this. John Fleischman, who has a great political website called So Doesn't Matter.com. And he's a political commentator and analyst. And he put together a dictionary. of woke terms that have been absorbed into everyday life, especially in newscasts. And I'm going to be on the alert now. I try to catch things. I'm going to go through all 10. And you're going to be on notice now. This is your official notice. I need to pre-read anyway. I don't know what's wrong with people who send you some of the stories and do the writing. Because they're all ridiculous. You've heard them a lot. And we always make fun of these things. But John Fleischman put together a handy directory. of ridiculous, politically correct, woke terms that just fog up the real, the reality of these situations. Bite into a stack sandwich made with hero bread or a fully loaded bagel. And the only thing you'll think is delicious. You won't think it's up to 19 grams of protein, but it is.

Ten terms that have embedded themselves into government speak and unfortunately journalism, newscasts, radio newscasts. TV newscasts. And sometimes everyday speech, you end up hearing more and more people using the terms. And I want to mock that out of existence. That's my goal. Boy, you know, I'm dangerously close to being on Karen Bass's side when it comes to... I get a dirty look. On this lineage situation. The thing is, I don't trust her, obviously, and I don't trust the LA Times. I don't know who to trust. But let's, for the sake of argument here, because I got five minutes until it is, right? So let's use this as an intellectual exercise. Don't assume anything I say here, anything she says or the Times says is necessarily true. Not you even? Well, because right now these are my sources. That's the problem. Okay. I got no source to trust. But I have a feeling that this really may be what's going on. So Karen Bass issued an executive order. There are not going to be processing rebuilding permits for lineage, which is the company that had that refrigeration warehouse, the 85 million pounds of rotting meat and other food from the fire. You know the story. It's now been six weeks. They're barely halfway. through the cleanup process. Bass's team is claiming there have been almost 4,000 complaints about lineage with the South Coast Air Quality Management District, which gives you an idea of this stink that just won't go away. Because you still, with all the work they've done, you have 40 to 45 million pounds of rotting food. And it never gets better.

So the Air Quality Management District issued 19 violations to the company. And it turns out lineage is not doing anything to help the residents. They're spending very little money to get them relocated. The city and the county are spending over a million and a half dollars for emergency housing, Airbnb and nonprofits. They have 1,300 residents that they've given a temporary shelter to. Hundreds of pets. I always feel bad for the pets. I do too. Because they didn't make this mess, right? No. These are stupid humans. They don't understand what's going on. Yeah. Lineage out of the $1.6 million, according to Bass, lineage only provided $100,000 out of the $1.6 million. She said that's less than 7% of what we provided. But what is wrong with these bozos? And do the corporate executives always have to live up to the worst stereotypes about corporate executives? Do you have to be cold, heartless a-holes? Good Lord. I haven't had time to look up how much lineage is worth. But I think that million and a half dollars should have come from lineage.

Hilda Steve Scalise, who almost as a county supervisor, never does anything useful, always on the wrong side of every issue, always votes the wrong way. She went to the site and said she felt like she was in a war zone. And she wants to change some laws. But this is where the county should have been on this particular issue six weeks ago. Only now. Are they taking steps to expand access to landfills beyond the normal operating hours? They had closing times for landfills when there's 85 million pounds of dead rotted meat to disperse of? I mean, how could you have a closing time for a landfill under these circumstances? So only now can lineage remove the rotting meat around the clock. It took six weeks, and that's why I'm wary to say, oh, this is all lineage is full. It's like, how come that wasn't done on day one? No wonder there was such slow progress. After a month, they'd only removed 4% of the meat because Hilda Steve Scalise kept the closing time at the landfills the same as always. What's wrong with them? Like nobody thought, I'm sorry, landfill closes at, you know, 7 p.m. We can't allow it. What's wrong with you? You have 85 freaking million pounds of rotted meat and the landfill is closed. Lineage is blaming a subcontractor, Altus Power. They were doing, Altus Power was doing rooftop solar testing. It was solar panels. Altus said, no, it's not our fault. But we don't know whose fault it is. And they're saying lineage is just, you know, looking for a scapegoat. And... But there's no, there's no excuse for only putting it $100,000 to relocate the people. That's, that's really awful. And there's no excuse for the county not to open the landfills 24 hours a day. God, six weeks, we have the dumbest, dumbest people, not only running these companies, but also running all layers of government. Unbelievable. That's as close as I'll ever come to agreeing Karen Bass on anything. All right, we come back. John Fleischman's 10 politically correct woke phrases that he thinks should be permanently banned from conversation and journalism. You're listening to John Cobalt on demand from KFI AM 640. K-5 AM 640 live everywhere on the I Heart Radio app. John Cobalt Show. And we are on from 3 to 6. And after 6 o'clock, if you miss anything, ah, should be a shame to yourself. You can listen to the podcast, though. John Cobalt Show on demand. You can do that anytime, you know, tonight, this weekend. And we're on YouTube live.

And we're also live on X so you can watch us on video all afternoon. We even have a chat thing on the YouTube page. So do that. John Fleischman, he writes, he's been a Republican analyst, consultant, political guy, and he has a website called So Does It Matter.com and actually writes commentary sometimes several times a day. It's good stuff. He's on our show often. And I really enjoyed today's posting because it was a dictionary of All those irritating, progressive, woke phrases that were forced on us over the last 10 years, really accelerating in 2020. And it's one thing if these woke holes want to talk to each other this way, but it infested journalism. And so you see every TV anchor, radio anchor, reporters, writers, they all use these phrases that five minutes ago you never heard of. Some of them you don't know exactly what they mean. All of them are supposed to, I think the word is obfuscate the truth, confuse the truth, thog it up. Because if you say things bluntly, you realize that what they're talking about. what they want to change, their new policy. If you describe it in blunt terms, you realize what a stupid idea it is. So they come up with all these confusing phrases, and you'll recognize all these. First one is, do we say criminal? Or do we say justice-involved individual? Now, has that seeped into any newscasts? It has not. Oh, you've kept the... Have you seen it? I have not. Ah. It's like he writes, justice involved sounds like somebody accidentally wandered into a courthouse. And he says this euphemism blurs the distinction between being arrested, charged, and convicted. and shifts the suspicion from the conduct to the justice system. Justice involved said, oh, well, what do they do to him? Instead of saying, hey, he's a convict. He's an ex-con. He's been charged. Along those lines, number two, you call him a prisoner or an incarcerated person. A prisoner. Very good. Incarcerated person, he says, adds syllables without adding information. It pushes the imprisonment into the background, right? Incarcerated person now, you don't think of, oh, that's a guy who committed a really nasty crime. You go to a state prison. You've done something very bad. Instead, it sounds like something's been done to the criminal. Oh, he's an incarcerated person. Oh, who did that to him? No, no, no. It's what he did to somebody else.

Number three, well, we know this one. Undocumented immigrant versus illegal alien. Undocumented. It says, oh, you didn't fill out your paperwork. You didn't get the form. It's like, no. We are not supposed to say illegal alien in our newscast. At least we weren't. I don't know if that's changed. Yeah, there was a regime here that went for a lot of these. And. In fact, at some point, somebody told me I shouldn't use the phrase illegal alien. And I said, well, that's the federal government term that they use in federal law. So go take it up with Congress. I just say illegal immigrant. That's the compromise one. But you know what? At least it emphasizes illegal, which is the most important thing. Undocumented does not indicate that somebody's illegal. Oh, this one. I haven't heard this too much, but a little bit. Housing challenged instead of homeless. I don't use it. It may have been written here. It's probably in sound bites you've played. Yeah. Yeah. The term I hear is unhoused. Unhoused. Yes. That is really taken over to some extent. And people aren't unhoused. Actually, they're not homeless. They're vagrants. They're vagrants. They're wandering around. And that's why I was describing them as vagrants. Mental patients are drug addicts because that's what they are. And not using that terminology just doesn't bring home what we're dealing with here. Oh, this is one of my favorites. Equity versus equality. No. Equality means we all have the same rights. We all have to live by the same standards. Equity, and this is really important, seeks predetermined outcomes. In other words, we're all entitled to a certain reward. We're all entitled to be in a university, a top-tier university. Even though we have terrible grades, we have lousy SAT scores, we're a disruptive force, we're basically idiots and knuckleheads. Oh, but I have to have equity. I deserve a seat. Well, no, you don't deserve a seat. Number six. Affordable housing versus low-income housing. We've used both. Yes. Well, this is how affordable housing fogs up the truth. Because it's actually subsidized projects below market units, rent restrictions, income-restricted units. What it doesn't tell you is this is housing that costs the taxpayers money. It's fine to have these programs. But we should know, as Fleischman writes, who qualifies, who pays? That's us. What's being built here? Subsidized housing. Oh, okay. We're paying money. Affordable housing is, that's nebulous. That's murky. And it's used on purpose to hide the fact that these people aren't paying the market rate for their housing. We are.

Or at least part of it. Healthcare access versus medical care. And he writes, access is not care. Just because you have an insurance card doesn't guarantee a doctor is available or you're going to get a timely appointment. And he says, politicians use the word access because it measures government activity. Well, everybody has access. Well, do they all get care? That's the difference. This one makes me crazy. Number eight, food insecurity. I don't use that one. This one, I hear this, though, in sound clips, and I've heard other people here use it. It may have slipped in one time, but I don't, because I don't speak that way. No, I know. It's not a natural way of speaking. None of these phrases do you encounter in real life unless you're with a bunch of ultra-woke whack jobs. Hunger is hunger. Food insecurity. I don't know what that is. I don't see people going hungry. I see the opposite out there. I see people who need to go hungry for extended periods. Well, I mean, something like over half the country is obese.

But I don't. And besides that, we have so many, we have tons of food programs that we're spending billions for. So even if you are out on the street and you're unhoused, there are plenty places to get food. There's just, there's just no excuse for this. Nobody walks around saying, I feel food insecure today. That's like, well, I'm going to go to anything out then. An old one, reproductive rights versus abortion rights. Abortion is such a harsh sounding word and creates such a harsh visual image. So people came up with reductive rights, but boy, that really neuters what's going on here. You need to have an honest discussion and use the blunt terms. So it's reminded, what are we talking about? I've used both. Yeah. Well, because we're not talking about pills that you take. We're talking about the act of an abortion. And then, and this one came in recent years, when they stopped calling sex change procedures, sex change procedures, and came up with gender affirming care. I don't use that. Yeah. And that's what they pushed on parents with when your kids were getting, well, if you have an alleged trans kid, you get hormone blockers or hormones or irreversible surgery. Well, that's all gender affirming care. Well, maybe it is or maybe it's mutilation. Maybe you're completely ruining their natural endocrine system. Their hormones. All those phrases should be banned. Should not be used by alleged journalists. So John Fleischman did a good job there. Bite into a stack sandwich made with hero bread or a fully loaded bagel.

AM 640, more stimulating talk radio. John Cobalt's show, coming up after 4 o'clock in just a few minutes after Debra's news, we're going to have Hayes Davenport on. He's with a new news site called laMaterial.com. We talked about this a few days ago. He did the story, and it's about this private security company, if you want to call it that, called Ghost Town. And the employees. are largely gang members. Gang members who've left the business, or at least that's what they're all claiming. But they've had quite an effect in Venice because the gang members seem to have special abilities to get the homeless people to get out. They're very persuasive. Ghost town. And there's about 200 clients, 200 homeowners in the neighborhood who... pay them, pay the company, and they're very happy with the results because Ghost Town does what the police department and the city refuses to do. And that's actually get the homeless people out of the neighborhoods. All right. So Hayes Davenport comes on and he wrote the piece and that'll be in just a few minutes. We talked a little bit ago about, you know, the unhoused. The unhoused brings disease. According to the L.A. County Department of Public Health, they're not blaming the unhoused. I am. You'll see why. It looks like we've got a typhus outbreak here in Los Angeles. Now, the typhus comes from fleas. The fleas come from the rats. The rats, of course, show up at encampments because there's a lot of food and garbage that the rats eat. And I'm waiting for the typhus outbreak in Boyle Heights because this is like one of the all-time greatest rat conventions in U.S. history as they feed on the 85 million pounds of rotted food. They have found five typhus cases in L.A. County. They all cases have to go to the hospital. And it's in the Pico Union neighborhood. And the outbreak, I mean, these can be really severe. In 2025, there were 220 cases. That's up from 187.

in 2024. So there are more cases of typhus than ever. There are five of them in this neighborhood in Pico Union, and it's rats. Now, you know, the health department is not linking it to the homeless people, but that's where you find the rats. You find the rats when there's a lot of garbage food lying around. which is what you get in encampments, and it's, you know, what you get in Boyle Heights these days. It's a vomiting illness. Once you get typhus within one or two weeks, you get fever, headache, rash, body aches. You need antibiotics, and you could end up vomiting a lot. It's the bacteria is rickettsia typhi bacteria. It comes with when fleas jump on you and poop. Flea feces. Have you ever gotten a flea bite? Not that I know of. Oh, I have. You have? Many times. Yes, my dogs. I mean, right now I give him flea medication, but in the past, absolutely. Well, the fleas could have pooped on you. I'm sure they did numerous times. If you have a cut in your skin or you rub your eyes. Oh, no. Yeah. And then you got typhus. Well, I haven't gotten it yet. Yeah. Did you feel the fleas on you? Yes. No, they're so tiny, but I've seen them in the past. Not this has been, it's been a long time, but I've actually seen. Yeah, they jump off. I see them jumping off my dog. And I'd grab them and I would drown them. I mean, this is in between. I grab it in between my fingers and then I either put it in the toilet. You grab the fleas? Yes. What am I going to do? Yes, I have. You drowned them? Yes. That's kind of cruel. It is. Please don't send me any emails. You drown the fleas. Well, because you're always so kind to all animals. You get very upset. But fleas, yeah. And I actually will turn the faucet on and I'll put the flea. Really? And you watch them screaming for help as they go under? I don't hear anything, actually. Help me. Help me. Vegan? Yeah, see, that's that's the... You hypocritical. That's the nasty side. That's right. You won't, you don't want a cow killed for a cheeseburger, but a flea getting cruelly drowned. Yes, I admit, I don't like fleas. With your bare hands, where do you choke them and then you... Yes, I have. I think you know somebody. I really don't. Ghost Town. We'll talk about this. It's all the rage in Venice. Hundreds of people love Ghost Town. It's a security company made up of former gang members who make the homeless go away. We'll talk with Hayes Davenport. He wrote a piece for laMaterial.com. And we'll discuss this with him next. Deborah Mark is live in the KFI 24-hour newsroom.
