John talks about a CalMatters article about the terrible impact of people self-deporting, but John says by the time you get through the first paragraph, the only thought that comes to mind is “what’s wrong with this?”

John talks about the recent feud between First Lady Melania Trump and Joe Biden’s son, Hunter. John plays audio of Hunter’s reply on podcast to Melania initiating the lawsuit and looking to recover $1 Billion in damages. John also revisits Newsom’s redistricting presser and plays audio from the ‘independent’ redistricting committee member Sara Sadhwani (who happens to be very bias) appearing at Newsom’s partisan presser and referring to ICE as “masked gunman,” who are threatening them.

John talks about nudist night at German history museum which is apparently a sell-out.

The hour wraps with a jaw-dropping bust in San Bernardino, where authorities seized 3,500 birds bred for cockfighting—an unprecedented number even for John.
