FULL TRANSCRIPT

0:00

if california had a strong leader who

0:02

cleaned up the problems in our state and

0:04

stopped wasting money

0:06

we could have no income tax for any

0:08

income earned

0:09

under 250 000 and finally make

0:12

california competitive again

0:14

but we've got some things to talk about

0:16

first why does california the fifth

0:18

largest economy in the world struggle

0:20

with crime

0:21

schooling homelessness and can't even

0:24

keep the power on or supply our farms

0:26

with enough

0:27

water the crime trend prompting a major

0:29

retailer to make a drastic

0:32

change we've learned target is cutting

0:34

its hours

0:35

after a spike in thefts every day

0:37

there's fires guns knives

0:40

crime there's a lot of crime here in san

0:42

francisco carrying handbags is of

0:44

organized retail theft

0:45

the number of homeless tents and

0:47

encampments has been skyrocketing

0:50

they've taken over everything and we're

0:52

concerned about the safety of our

0:53

employees

0:54

my name is kevin paffroth and i'm

0:56

running for governor to provide the

0:57

solutions we need

0:59

to end the [ __ ] that's happening in

1:02

our state

1:02

higher electricity bills periodic

1:05

rationing

1:06

and blackouts for millions of households

1:09

and

1:09

businesses for the most gridlocked city

1:12

in the world

1:12

very horrifying the wind and the fire

1:15

and the speed of it it just overtook

1:18

everybody why is this happening to our

1:20

beautiful state

1:21

it's not because of hard-working

1:22

californians who follow the rules and

1:24

pay their taxes no

1:26

it's because of the broken policies

1:30

of our government it's broken leadership

1:33

that leads to fragmented rules and

1:35

regulations that don't look

1:37

california as a whole we need a new

1:39

leader

1:40

to fix this mess so california

1:43

has implemented a lot of regulations

1:47

at the state level and also at the local

1:50

level

1:51

that makes it very difficult and very

1:54

expensive to build new housing

1:56

the beef that comes from the cattle it

1:57

feeds is the highest water use food

1:59

commonly available

2:00

drip and sprinkler irrigation can be

2:02

much more efficient but nancy told us

2:04

she's not been able to get the permits

2:06

needed to change

2:07

the irrigation style on the farm they've

2:09

handcuffed the lapd

2:11

and told no you're not going to enforce

2:13

anything because we don't want to offend

2:15

anybody

2:15

the insanity of the education system

2:17

where kids can't learn to read we

2:19

literally don't know how to read

2:20

them but quite frankly

4:29

we need emergency action to start

repairing california now

4:33

especially for those who are struggling

4:36

i'm

4:37

personally seeking to be your governor

4:39

4:41

streamline our ability

4:43

to solve homelessness fast to solve

4:47

housing traffic schooling and crime

4:49

problems that we have in the state

4:51

with a strong leader we can make massive

4:54

improvements and if you like what you

4:56

hear and see in this video

4:58

million dollars that are donated to this

5:06

campaign

5:15

dollars towards making this campaign as

5:17

successful as a movement as possible

5:20

because we need to work together to fix

5:22

california

5:24

the on-the-ground reality is more

5:26

representative of a charles dickens

5:28

novel

5:28

than a utopia it smells of urine

5:32

everywhere a socal shocker los angeles

5:35

once again takes top honors for the most

5:38

gridlocked city in the world

5:40

california's top marginal income tax

5:42

rate

5:42

is now 13.3 percent which is already one

5:45

of the highest in the nation

5:46

the legislature is actively discussing

5:48

raising it to 16.8 percent

5:50

i saw today there was a happiness index

5:53

put out

5:53

california remaining one of the happiest

5:56

states

5:56

uh for individuals to live in in the

5:58

united states of america so i don't

6:00

think we're gonna come back we're gonna

6:01

come roaring back

6:02

and i can assure you if i talk to you in

6:04

six months you're gonna be in a

6:05

completely

6:06

different place well governor gavin

6:08

newsom things have only gotten worse

6:10

since all of these clips but folks let's

6:12

talk a little bit more about me

6:14

problems that we have in the state and

6:16

solutions because i don't just like to

6:17

talk about problems

6:18

i actually like to provide solutions and

6:21

that is how a leader operates

6:23

let's get into it my background is in

6:25

law enforcement handling crime

6:27

and homelessness first hand while

6:28

balancing bureaucracy

6:30

i have an educational background in

6:32

economics accounting and political

6:34

science from the university of

6:35

california at los angeles

6:37

and for a living i teach wealth building

6:39

and financial education on youtube

6:41

and i know that the problems we have in

6:43

california are difficult

6:44

but they're very similar to my

6:46

background and i realize that all of

6:48

these

6:49

are interconnected for example why don't

6:52

we teach

6:52

financial education at our middle and

6:54

high schools don't we all deserve to

6:56

learn about

6:57

finance and building wealth by 18

6:59

shouldn't we be able to

7:00

graduate debt free for free at 18

7:04

with a career shouldn't adults

7:07

have a similar opportunity to get an

7:10

education

7:11

rather than be stuck in multiple minimum

7:14

wage jobs relying on the government just

7:16

to get by

7:17

folks one third

7:20

one out of every three californians

7:23

is on medi-cal relying on the government

7:26

just to get by it's not their fault

7:30

it's not the bureaucrats faults it's not

7:32

our business's faults and it's not our

7:34

union's faults it's not the californian

7:36

people's fault

7:38

it's the governor's fault it's the

7:40

broken leadership

7:42

that we have had in the last 24 years in

7:45

this state which it's no surprise that

7:46

governor gavin newsom has been

7:48

in politics leading politics in

7:50

california for the last

7:52

24 years just as another example

7:54

consider

7:55

70 of the homeless on our streets become

7:58

homeless

7:59

because of economic reasons due to

8:01

joblessness evictions

8:03

or poverty these are preventable issues

8:06

now unfortunately many people on our

8:08

streets then fall victim to mental

8:10

health issues and substance abuse

8:12

issues yet we never learn about

8:15

mental education in our schools we might

8:18

learn about physical education but how

8:19

about

8:20

mental education folks there's so many

8:23

things

8:24

so many common sense solutions that a

8:26

governor can

8:27

lead and implement in our state

8:30

currently

8:31

we have a governor who refuses to do any

8:33

of this

8:34

half of african americans in the state

8:36

of california roughly half of latino

8:37

families have no access to a checking

8:39

account

8:40

or an atm things we take for granted

8:41

they don't have a check what's wrong

8:42

with them

8:43

but what well because they don't they

8:44

don't have the resources to sock those

8:46

things away

8:47

why do we have them uh a lot of

8:49

different reasons but

8:50

but roughly half those families don't i

8:52

mean a lot of communities have

8:54

a lot of whites have these problems

8:56

that's not just black and hispanic no

8:57

but it but

8:58

why did you bring up black industry

8:59

because the magnitude is ominous but why

9:02

so many of them

9:02

it just happens to be just that's the

9:05

way god planned it

9:06

this is a very telling and dangerous

9:08

time in a lot of ways it's very

9:10

challenging

9:11

and uh it exposes a lot of things and

9:13

one of the things that exposes

9:14

i don't i don't particularly like the

9:17

way things are run here

9:19

we are leaving because this place has

9:20

become so horribly governed that if you

9:22

have the means

9:23

to get out you are going to leave we are

9:26

but the tip of the spear we are not the

9:28

only ones another blow to the bay area

9:30

companies

9:31

leaving town for much cheaper taxes and

9:34

a cheaper cost of living this time

9:36

it's oracle hewlett packard the latest

9:38

tech company to leave silicon valley now

9:41

underway in beverly hills

9:43

in upscale santa monica devastating

9:46

destruction as

9:47

looters attacked business after business

9:50

hey guys you see this governor gavin

9:52

newsom to deploy

9:54

the national guard and just minutes ago

9:56

we heard that the governor has declared

9:58

a state of emergency for

10:00

los angeles why haven't you brought

10:02

young people

10:04

into the leadership with proper

10:06

leadership

10:07

i believe we can solve most if not all

10:09

of the problems that we have

10:10

in our state see i personally believe

10:13

that

10:14

in general government should stay out of

10:16

our lives

10:17

we should be allowed to work freely with

10:19

minimal interference

10:21

receive safety and proper infrastructure

10:24

and in return we pay our taxes but

10:27

unfortunately

10:28

as more of us put our heads up and look

10:30

at what our government has done

10:32

we realize that the problems in our

10:33

state are getting worse by government

10:35

action

10:36

not better and that creates resentment

10:39

it creates this feeling of why am i

10:42

still

10:42

here over the last 10 years

10:46

we've had 2.4 million taxpayers leave

10:49

our state to places like texas florida

10:52

vegas tennessee idaho

10:56

and they're leaving because folks are

10:58

looking up to see what their government

10:59

has done

11:00

and are disgraced by it it's not fair

11:04

now our governor argues ah the

11:06

population decline isn't that bad but

11:08

see unfortunately the governor misleads

11:10

us

11:10

a lot of folks are being born in

11:12

california and a lot of folks are coming

11:14

to california for schooling

11:15

but unfortunately both of these are

11:17

draws on our economy

11:19

children and students generally take

11:21

from the economy before they give back

11:22

to the economy

11:24

the people who are leaving are small

11:26

medium and large businesses

11:28

and taxpayers and so it's no surprise

11:31

that homelessness is getting worse that

11:33

crime is getting worse that housing

11:35

affordability is getting

11:36

worse the median home price in

11:38

california is eight hundred

11:40

thousand dollars regulations

11:43

and taxes aren't getting better they're

11:46

getting worse

11:47

and the last 24 years have been

11:49

particularly rough

11:50

governor gavin newsom also happens to

11:53

have been in politics

11:54

and a leader in california's politics

11:56

for the last 24 years

11:58

and this is why folks it's time for a

12:00

new leader

12:01

it's time we stop the [ __ ] it's time

12:04

for change vote for kevin paphrath for

12:08

governor

12:09

more than 500 california wildfires

12:12

new encampments have been popping up

12:14

throughout l.a in the last five months

12:15

the number of people living outside

12:17

appears to have multiplied

12:18

there are now thousands of crimes a year

12:21

like this one

12:22

in which the suspects are homeless one

12:25

in six restaurants will not survive the

12:27

pandemic

12:28

people are just bailing there's a mass

12:30

exodus out of california right now

12:34

you can quibble about the guidelines et

12:36

cetera et cetera but the spirit

12:38

of what i'm preaching all the time was

12:40

contradicted

12:42

this is heartbreaking to see this is not

12:44

the kind of california i want to leave

12:46

my children and future generations

12:48

this is not the representation that we

12:51

should be for

12:52

the country or the world as the fifth

12:54

largest economy

12:56

now you might not know this but my

12:57

family is german

13:00

germany is the fourth largest economy in

13:02

the world

13:03

with a strong california we shouldn't be

13:06

worried about

13:07

homelessness or having enough water or

13:09

having enough power

13:11

we should be focused on becoming the

13:13

fourth largest economy in the world and

13:14

kicking

13:15

germany's butt by growing our economy

13:18

not shrinking our economy not decaying

13:21

but by growing and folks i believe that

13:24

my policies

13:26

will bring us exactly this kind of

13:28

growth

13:29

now there are a few things that you

13:30

should know about me first

13:32

no more lockdowns i do not agree

13:35

with lockdowns i also believe in

13:37

vaccines

13:38

for covid and masks as a choice

13:42

as a personal choice now i do believe

13:46

in regulations that might require

13:48

science-based hepa filtration

13:51

and ventilation requirements for

13:53

businesses to remain open

13:54

but i don't believe in lockdowns and

13:56

mandates now i need you to also know

13:58

as we get into my policies that i'm not

14:01

a far

14:02

leftist and i'm not a far rightist in

14:04

fact most people who learn about me

14:06

don't even know if i'm a democrat or a

14:08

republican that's because my policies

14:11

and my solutions

14:12

are california solutions they're neutral

14:15

middle of the road solutions and i seek

14:17

to provide those solutions

14:19

with both democrats and republicans but

14:21

let's be real

14:22

a republican governor is going to get

14:24

sandbagged

14:25

for the next year after this recall

14:28

election a republican governor is not

14:30

going to get

14:30

anything done between a transition of

14:33

power at the end of 2021

14:35

and the next election in 2022.

14:38

i am running as a democrat i have been a

14:41

registered democrat

14:42

since 18 and i believe with a super

14:45

majority of democrats in congress

14:47

and a leader that understands how

14:49

important and interconnected our

14:51

problems are

14:52

and will treat our problems as a state

14:54

of emergency i believe and i know

14:57

that we can fix california and we can

14:59

make substantial progress

15:01

within this next year now before we get

15:04

into the specifics

15:05

i want you to consider voting for kevin

15:09

paffraff

15:10

on this next california ballot in the

15:12

recall election

15:14

consider this if you're a republican and

15:16

you want to see things get done

15:18

vote yes on recall and vote yes on kevin

15:21

paffrey

15:22

if you're a democrat and you do not

15:25

support the recall

15:26

then vote kevin paffrath as your backup

15:29

option

15:30

if you are a democrat and you are voting

15:33

for the recall

15:34

then also vote yes on kevin paffreth for

15:37

governor

15:38

much like the economic inequality of our

15:41

roman ancestors

15:42

california now suffers the highest

15:45

cost-adjusted poverty rate in the

15:47

country

15:48

it also has one of the nation's highest

15:51

ratios

15:52

which measures the inequality of wealth

15:54

distribution

15:55

from the richest to poorest residents

15:58

and the disparity is growing the buckets

16:01

that we use

16:02

are urinate bowel movement there's

16:05

nowhere around here

16:06

to use the bathroom and that's hard on a

16:08

person

16:09

california's level of inequality is

16:12

greater than that of neighboring mexico

16:15

and closer to central american countries

16:18

like guatemala

16:20

and honduras it is true that

16:22

california's gdp

16:24

per capita is far higher than the

16:26

central american countries

16:29

but the state has slowly morphed into a

16:31

low-wage economy

16:33

over the past decade 80 percent of the

16:36

state's jobs

16:37

have paid under the median wage even at

16:40

some of the state's most prestigious

16:42

companies like google

16:44

many lower and even mid-level employees

16:47

live in mobile home parks others

16:50

sleep in their cars

16:53

as a result california's population

16:56

is for the first time in its modern

16:59

history

17:00

falling millennials specifically when

17:03

they start having families

17:05

are heading to other states a process

17:08

that has been accelerated

17:09

by the pandemic

17:13

californian officials try to cover up

17:16

these shortcomings

17:17

by pointing to the huge capital gains

17:20

tax receipts

17:21

they receive from large tech companies

17:23

and those derived

17:24

from initial public offerings together

17:27

these have created an enormous

17:29

tax windfall that allows the state to

17:32

enjoy

17:32

an annual surplus even in hard times

17:36

in my opinion a true leader should never

17:39

mislead you

17:40

our governor said that we had a 78

17:42

billion dollar surplus yet didn't tell

17:44

you that almost half of that came from

17:46

the federal government allocated

17:47

to our schools but then he spent this

17:50

surplus

17:51

partially to buy votes and now we are

17:55

actually going 12 billion dollars more

17:57

into folks should we have a surplus

18:02

and then be going into debt i'm tired of

18:04

being misled

18:05

it's like when the governor tweets that

18:06

because we are roaring back

18:08

we can forgive 5.2 billion dollars of

18:11

rent via

18:12

a 5.2 billion rent relief program yet

18:14

the governor doesn't tell you

18:15

that 2.6 billion or 50 percent of that

18:19

came from donald trump and the 600

18:21

stimulus check package in december

18:23

another 2.2 billion dollars came from

18:25

joe biden in the 1400

18:28

stimulus check package that means 4.8

18:31

billion

18:32

or over 92 percent of the rent relief

18:34

money that we are giving away in

18:36

california

18:37

actually came from the federal

18:38

government not from california that

18:40

means we are not roaring

18:42

back because of gavin newsom we are

18:44

roaring back in spite of gavin newsom

18:48

but this rent relief money as of may

18:51

and this money the governor has had

18:53

since december and february

18:55

as of may and june only 2.3 percent of

18:59

the rent relief money has actually been

19:00

distributed

19:01

to californians in need during an

19:03

emergency

19:05

as of july only about six percent

19:08

of the money has been distributed this

19:11

is a disgrace

19:12

during an emergency you would think that

19:14

during an emergency

19:16

money could be distributed quickly but

19:19

our governor

19:19

again squanders his duties

19:25

it could happen to anybody it could

19:27

happen to anybody

19:30

and it's just hard tens of thousands of

19:32

people living on the streets

19:35

they've taken over everything and we're

19:37

concerned about the safety of our

19:39

employees

19:40

the number of homeless tents and

19:41

encampments along the world famous

19:43

venice boardwalk and nearby streets

19:46

has been skyrocketing every day there's

19:48

fires guns knives

19:50

crime there's a lot of crime here it's

19:52

gotten to the point where my girlfriend

19:53

does not feel safe to walk down to the

19:55

grocery store at night because there are

19:57

people shouting

19:58

and throwing things on the sidewalk as

20:00

they make their way down the street

20:02

here's a google street view image from

20:03

september of 2014.

20:06

and here is the exact same spot now

20:09

just a few years later in 2019 there

20:12

were nearly 60

20:13

000 homeless people living in l.a county

20:15

in 2011 there were less than 40

20:17

000 so we've increased by 50 in less

20:20

than 10 years

20:20

these are people many of whom are

20:22

mentally ill or drug addicted but thanks

20:24

to local regulations and legal consent

20:26

decrees the police have been told they

20:28

are literally not allowed to move them

20:29

to dry out facilities or do anything

20:31

with the trash that now screws every

20:33

sidewalk and underpass and overpass

20:35

and embankment in la every single one

20:37

and is now not

20:38

asked to move right they use the street

20:41

as their restroom

20:42

exactly and they've handcuffed the lapd

20:46

and told now you're not going to enforce

20:48

anything because we don't want to offend

20:50

anybody

20:50

counterproductive and irresponsible

20:52

decisions from

20:54

the board of supervisors the mayor of la

20:57

and the l.a counties or the la city

20:59

council each and every

21:00

person played a part you shouldn't have

21:03

to worry about

21:04

where we're gonna stay tonight you know

21:07

the white house reports nearly half of

21:09

the country's unsheltered homeless

21:10

people live on the streets of california

21:12

and a growing number of middle and

21:14

low-income people are moving out of

21:16

state

21:16

with the majority of those leaving

21:18

reporting an annual income under a

21:19

hundred thousand dollars

21:20

whether they are people at the car wash

21:23

baggers at the supermarket

21:25

attendees at the rest homes and what are

21:28

we doing

21:29

to assure ourselves that we'll be able

21:31

to keep

21:32

that critical part of our employment

21:35

infrastructure those folks at the bottom

21:37

because we're toast without it folks i

21:39

can solve

21:40

homelessness now i know that is a bold

21:43

claim but i

21:44

also understand that homelessness is

21:46

caused by economic reasons mental health

21:48

reasons substance abuse reasons

21:50

it's caused by crime and over policing

21:52

the lack of opportunity for folks who

21:54

get out of

21:55

high school or college the lack of

21:56

opportunity for those who get out of our

21:58

prison systems

22:00

i understand the causes i understand

22:03

the solutions because i've worked with

22:05

homeless communities i've been on the

22:07

ground with homeless communities i've

22:08

been on the law enforcement side and

22:10

i've worked with the professionals

22:12

folks we can solve it we need emergency

22:15

action day one from the governor's

22:18

action that is going to coordinate a

22:20

homeless response professionally

22:23

conducted with the help of non-profits

22:25

and businesses

22:26

to end our homeless crisis we are going

22:29

to create 80 emergency facilities

22:32

throughout the state

22:33

and there are plenty of vacant

22:34

commercial office buildings or

22:35

commercial buildings thanks to governor

22:37

newsom's lockdown policies

22:39

that we can utilize to centralize

22:41

support

22:42

for food mental health education

22:46

substance abuse but let me make this

22:49

very very crystal clear

22:51

after 60 days of my administration no

22:54

one

22:55

will be living on our streets of

22:57

california and that's because people

22:58

aren't living on the streets they're

23:00

dying on our streets more people are

23:01

dying on our streets from homelessness

23:03

than gun violence that is a lot of

23:06

people dying especially

23:08

when you have a governor who is obsessed

23:10

with more gun control measures

23:11

which at the same time those gun control

23:13

measures just lead

23:14

to more gun sales and ultimately the

23:16

people conducting crime in our state

23:18

aren't using california rostered

23:19

handguns

23:20

or california compliant weapons anyway

23:22

it's ironic

23:23

or not but the reality is we need to

23:26

centralize support

23:28

now while there's a lot of work to do to

23:29

make sure our plan is perfect anything

23:31

is better than

23:32

spending five thousand dollars per month

23:35

on a single tent for a single homeless

23:37

person like san francisco is doing

23:39

while at the same time they're spending

23:40

twenty thousand

23:42

dollars on a trash can francisco's board

23:45

of supervisors is looking to replace

23:47

its green trash canisters and the ones

23:49

under consideration

23:50

cost as much as twenty thousand dollars

23:52

each or

23:53

it's even better than what los angeles

23:55

is doing which is just

23:57

let's hand homeless cell phones now it's

23:59

important to know that the facilities

24:00

we're going to build

24:01

are going to be completely optional

24:02

think javits center style

24:05

partitioned bedrooms with centralized

24:08

canteens and support for folks there's

24:10

nothing on this whole floor

24:11

but monday morning it went from nothing

24:13

to what you see out there at least on

24:15

this part

24:15

by friday there was a thousand beds

24:18

downstairs and now we're building

24:20

another two thousand

24:22

so in two weeks we're going to build a

24:24

3000 bed facility

24:25

but there's one thing californians will

24:28

no longer be allowed to do

24:29

and that is sleep on our streets and

24:31

we're going to have a transition period

24:33

we are going to utilize whatever powers

24:35

we can

24:36

to transition our homeless communities

24:38

to make sure the homeless communities

24:40

that we have

24:41

can finally trust their government again

24:43

in fact we're going to work with

24:45

the mayors and presidents of homeless

24:47

communities to make sure we solve

24:49

homelessness

24:50

correctly once and for all

24:53

customs and border protection say

24:55

they've recently seen the highest number

24:57

of apprehensions along the southwestern

24:59

border in two decades

25:01

with nearly a hundred and eighty

25:02

thousand in april alone

25:04

a 34 increase from the last surge

25:08

in the spring of 2019 when you see these

25:11

rural drop-offs occur

25:13

what does that say about the system well

25:15

it would say that the system is bogged

25:16

down

25:17

see folks ask me why is illegal

25:19

immigration

25:20

so bad into our country well it's

25:22

because our

25:23

legal immigration system is a failure

25:27

it is horrible and it is broken under my

25:30

leadership california will be the first

25:32

state

25:33

to finally work with the federal

25:34

government and figure out how to

25:36

appropriately

25:37

streamline immigration limited

25:39

quantities proper quantities into the

25:41

united states

25:42

with individuals who can sustain

25:44

themselves without relying on social

25:46

services

25:47

we need a governor who can fix the

25:49

problems we have in the state

25:51

the state of california is currently

25:54

facing the worst drought

25:56

in 1 200 years

25:59

last month the water level in lake

26:02

oroville the state's second largest

26:04

reservoir

26:05

was so low that hundreds of houseboats

26:08

were hauled out

26:09

because there wasn't enough water to

26:11

hold them for the first time ever

26:13

the state has stopped providing water to

26:15

farmers in some areas

26:17

our water allocation in this area is

26:19

zero apparently these trees haven't

26:21

received any water

26:22

at all this year california's

26:24

agricultural output

26:26

could fall by three and a half billion

26:28

dollars this year

26:30

costs across the nation are already up

26:32

attributed at least partly to the

26:34

drought

26:35

with more increases expected down the

26:37

line as crop yields come in this fall

26:40

the price for a single avocado could

26:42

jump by 28 percent

26:44

the lack of water also means fire the

26:47

dried out vegetation

26:48

became fuel to feed at that time the

26:51

largest fire on record

26:52

the thomas fire in southern california

26:55

which forced over one hundred thousand

26:57

people to evacuate their homes

26:59

the state's grid might experience

27:01

widespread

27:02

power outages and suffer from damaged

27:06

power lines

27:07

in essence this situation highlights

27:09

this

27:10

is gonna be a long hard summer of higher

27:13

electricity bills

27:15

periodic rationing and blackouts for

27:17

millions of households

27:19

and businesses this year the largest

27:21

reservoir in the us has fallen to a

27:23

record low depth

27:24

from space satellite photos tell the

27:26

story of how the drought has robbed the

27:28

lake of its glory from its 750 miles of

27:31

shoreline

27:32

a deep ring of bleached rock shows just

27:34

how far the water has dropped in the

27:36

last 20 years

27:37

and is liable to keep on falling this is

27:40

an example of flood irrigation

27:42

one of the oldest and most common

27:43

irrigation methods which distributes

27:45

water over the soil by allowing it to

27:47

flow downhill with gravity

27:49

now there is a beautiful simplicity to

27:51

it but it's actually the least efficient

27:53

way to irrigate as much of the water

27:54

either evaporates away or seeps into the

27:57

soil out of reach of the plant's roots

27:59

and on top of that alfalfa is a very

28:01

thirsty crop

28:02

which means the beef that comes from the

28:04

cattle it feeds is the highest water use

28:06

food commonly available

28:08

drip and sprinkler irrigation can be

28:09

much more efficient but nancy told us

28:11

she's not been able to get the permits

28:13

needed to change the irrigation style on

28:15

the farm here's a satellite picture of

28:17

the state from january 2013.

28:20

and this is from january of this year

28:23

shouldn't the fifth largest economy in

28:25

the world have enough water

28:27

folks we can solve this if we spend our

28:30

money

28:31

wisely rather than on things like

28:33

forgiving traffic tickets or on

28:35

kickbacks so that the governor can try

28:36

to buy votes and loyalty

28:38

we could be solving our water crisis

28:41

just as an example and this is just one

28:42

example when i become governor

28:44

we are going to use the best strategy

28:46

for solving our water crisis

28:47

and it could be a combination of things

28:49

from more reservoirs to desalinization

28:51

or the idea that we've liked a lot

28:54

recently

28:55

which has been building an aqueduct from

28:57

los angeles

28:58

to the mississippi river paying for

29:01

cheap

29:02

clean water sharing the cost of

29:04

construction with other

29:06

water starved states like new mexico and

29:08

arizona along the way

29:11

and doubling the flow of water to our

29:13

colorado river

29:14

so we can finally end our water shortage

29:17

folks there are common sense solutions

29:20

we just need a leader

29:21

who stops wasting money and instead

29:25

prioritizes spending appropriately

29:28

this is how we can create new jobs and

29:31

solve

29:31

problems instead of focusing on buying

29:34

votes

29:35

remember if you like what you're hearing

29:36

so far the next 1 million dollars

29:38

donated to the campaign at

29:39

stopthebullship.com

29:41

will be matched personally by me i will

29:43

match one dollar

29:44

donations with another dollar of

29:47

expenses

29:47

towards the campaign that means if you

29:49

donate a hundred dollars we get 200

29:51

of buying power for the campaign see the

29:53

problem we have in our country

29:54

is politicians have this obsession with

29:56

being career politicians

29:58

i'm not looking to be a career

30:00

politician i'm not getting into politics

30:02

for money

30:02

in fact i will not accept the governor's

30:05

salary

30:06

at all that will go directly back to the

30:09

state

30:09

of california the taxpayers don't have

30:12

to pay me

30:12

i want to give back to california and i

30:15

want to serve

30:16

but we need common sense and we start

30:19

common sense on day one by electing

30:22

kevin paffraff a new report out today

30:25

on california's deadliest wildfire ever

30:27

the inferno north of sacramento killed

30:29

85 people destroyed 18 thousand homes

30:33

and buildings

30:33

the sonoma county d.a has filed criminal

30:36

charges against pg e over its role in

30:39

starting the 2019 kincaid fire

30:41

a huge lurking culprit power lines

30:45

power lines played a major role in the

30:47

fires in northern california in 2017

30:50

power lines can come down strong winds

30:52

or trees can blow into power lines

30:55

that's an understatement cal fire

30:57

investigators say electrical lines and

30:59

equipment sparked

31:00

16 of the big blazes that killed 44

31:03

people

31:04

and burned a quarter million acres in

31:06

northern california in october 2017

31:09

and cal fire linked 15 of those 16

31:11

specifically to power company pg e

31:14

now when i first heard these stories i

31:16

thought oh my goodness our utility

31:17

companies the monopolies the government

31:19

enables

31:20

are creating fires they should be held

31:22

accountable and as they should be

31:25

but we also need to realize that when

31:26

you point one finger three fingers point

31:28

back and when the government points the

31:29

finger

31:30

at the utilities the government is also

31:32

a cause of the problem

31:34

see the government refuses to allow

31:37

the renewal of transmission lines

31:39

infrastructure systems

31:41

natural gas power plants to increase

31:43

efficiency at them

31:45

unless anything that is done is one

31:48

hundred percent

31:49

green now look i am all for green energy

31:52

but i also realize that green energy is

31:55

a transition

31:57

green energy will take time we can

31:59

incentivize green energy

32:01

but when we mandate green energy

32:04

100 of the time for new infrastructure

32:07

projects

32:08

before we're ready what happens we're

32:11

left with

32:12

power lines that are 20 years older than

32:14

their useful life expectancy

32:16

power lines that snap and cause fires

32:19

we're left with

32:20

1980s and 1990s and natural gas

32:23

facilities

32:24

that can't function properly during peak

32:26

hours

32:27

and so we have blackouts that doesn't

32:29

mean we need to build

32:30

new natural gas power plants but it does

32:33

mean that

32:34

if regulations were loosened slightly

32:36

and standards were elevated

32:37

we could actually increase the

32:39

efficiency of our natural gas production

32:42

eight times today if we simply

32:45

authorized the increase of this

32:48

efficiency

32:48

but because it's not 100 green the

32:50

government says no

32:51

so in other words the government

32:54

handcuffs

32:55

our existing infrastructure system which

32:58

is leading

32:59

to more fires more damage and more

33:01

blackouts

33:02

this is not the way to live in

33:04

california and again that's why we've

33:06

got to vote

33:07

yes on kevin paffrey for governor so we

33:10

can bring common-sense solutions to the

33:11

problems we have in the state

33:12

and at the same time wouldn't it make

33:14

sense to properly fund a cal

33:16

fire so that we can actually conduct the

33:18

proper controlled burns

33:19

to prevent forest fires in partnership

33:22

with the federal government which owns a

33:23

lot of land in california

33:25

and guess what controlled burns not only

33:27

are they better for the environment they

33:28

protect our endangered species

33:30

but they only cost 32 an acre

33:33

whereas fighting a wildfire costs up to

33:36

1500

33:38

dollars an acre we need common sense we

33:41

have to end the [ __ ]

33:42

when governor newsom recently defended

33:45

his economic track record

33:47

he predictably pointed to the new round

33:49

of ipos

33:50

to assure us that the state's growing

33:53

billionaire class

33:54

is doing quote pretty damn well

33:58

yet newsom currently faces a recall

34:01

campaign

34:02

for in spite of his optimism the

34:04

governor's inconsistent

34:06

rhetoric has angered large numbers of

34:08

the state's population

34:10

and new details are emerging that appear

34:11

to indicate california governor gavin

34:13

newsom's new 3.7 million dollar mansion

34:16

was gifted to him under highly

34:17

questionable circumstances

34:18

attorneys and legal experts say being

34:20

gifted such a property through an llc

34:22

is a huge warning sign for tax and

34:24

regulatory agencies

34:26

and likely indicates either tax fraud

34:29

money laundering or a payoff or bribe

34:31

hp is moving its enterprise division

34:33

headquarters to houston and many others

34:35

are following

34:36

oracle founded in the 70s alongside

34:38

apple and atari

34:39

announced in december that it's

34:40

relocated its headquarters to austin

34:43

palantir is relocating to denver elon

34:45

musk moved from los angeles to austin

34:47

where tesla is building its next

34:49

gigafactory

34:50

what really is surprising is the really

34:52

major big companies that

34:54

have put down routes here are the ones

34:56

they're leaving

34:57

the mom and pops are going as well but

35:00

when they leave they take 20 workers or

35:01

30 workers with them

35:03

they're not taking thousands of workers

35:05

with them and they're not taking

35:07

elon musk other major companies that

35:10

have moved their headquarters out of

35:11

california in recent years include

35:12

toyota charles schwab

35:14

nestle and jamba juice a 2018 study

35:16

found that

35:17

1800 companies left in 2016 alone

35:20

relocating mostly to texas

35:21

we have high taxes high housing costs

35:24

cost of living in california is about 50

35:26

percent higher than the median state

35:28

public services are not being delivered

35:30

so we've never really had that

35:32

all of that combination occurring as

35:34

we've had

35:35

in the past and we've never had

35:37

alternative places

35:39

to move to so for example now in texas

35:42

and austin texas

35:43

there's a big tech hub there the flight

35:45

of businesses out of our state is

35:46

exactly why i propose

35:48

a future schools solution future schools

35:51

are a combination of

35:52

high school colleges vocational schools

35:56

and schools that provide a financial

35:58

education so that way folks at 16 have a

36:00

choice to go to a future school

36:01

if they want to but future schools will

36:03

also be available for adults

36:05

and these future schools are going to be

36:07

very special because we are going to

36:09

use future schools as a way to work

36:12

with large medium and small businesses

36:16

so that way businesses are telling us

36:18

what we should teach in our future

36:19

schools

36:20

not bureaucrats coming up with

36:22

miscellaneous curricula

36:24

then when businesses tell us what they

36:26

want us to teach our students

36:28

small medium and large size businesses

36:29

all size businesses throughout

36:30

california

36:32

then when we provide those workers we're

36:34

going to require

36:35

that these businesses stay in california

36:38

and stop

36:38

leaving california if you want us to

36:40

provide you high-quality

36:42

strong hard-working californian workers

36:45

then you better stay and that is what i

36:48

stand for

36:49

but i also stand for letting homeless

36:52

folks

36:53

and criminals in jails access separated

36:56

but still the same concept

36:57

separated facilities separate future

36:59

schools so that way folks who are

37:01

homeless

37:01

have an opportunity to get educated get

37:04

a career

37:05

and get financially well off that way

37:08

folks who are criminals

37:09

have an opportunity to get out of jail

37:11

and actually get placed in a job because

37:13

they went to a future school and they

37:15

can get a career folks the starting

37:17

salary for a programmer

37:18

is 74 000 to 120 000 the starting salary

37:22

for a

37:23

nurse in this state is over 50 000 none

37:26

of these people

37:27

are on medi-cal or requiring government

37:30

aid

37:32

if we properly invest in our

37:34

californians

37:35

people don't have to resort to being

37:36

homeless they don't have to resort to

37:38

crime

37:39

and we can grow our economy and keep our

37:42

businesses here

37:43

it's just common sense we just need to

37:46

stop

37:46

the [ __ ] i remember i interviewed

37:48

gavin newsom personally back when i was

37:50

on

37:50

la radio on local and he said that the

37:53

high-speed bullet train was a bad idea

37:54

if you had your brothers would you kill

37:56

the thing i would take the dollars

37:58

and redirect it to other more pressing

38:00

infrastructure needs

38:02

then of course he got into power and it

38:03

was ah this high speed bullet train what

38:05

a wonderful idea

38:06

ah the high speed rail so i never seek

38:08

to ruffle feathers but i

38:10

will always be transparent with you if

38:12

you ask me where i stand on something

38:14

i would rather tell you either i don't

38:16

know and i will get back to you

38:18

or i'd rather tell you exactly how i

38:20

feel even if that's not what you want to

38:21

hear

38:22

because i will never stab you in the

38:24

back i want you

38:26

to have a transparent governor this is

38:28

why i believe

38:29

having somebody with a lot of experience

38:31

educating on

38:32

youtube and on social media is exactly

38:35

what our government needs

38:36

a transparent governor a governor who

38:39

can show you what's going on behind the

38:41

scenes

38:41

so you can have a say in what goes on

38:44

behind closed doors

38:45

because we need to open the doors we

38:47

need to let the light in we need

38:48

transparency again

38:50

let's talk about where i stand on the

38:51

high-speed rail the high-speed rail is

38:53

suggested to be good for our economy

38:55

and for our environment but let's be

38:58

real the high-speed rail is estimated

39:00

to break even not in five years not in

39:02

10 years not in 15 years

39:04

but the environmental costs to build it

39:06

and the money it takes to build it

39:08

will likely take over 71

39:13

years to break even folks would you

39:16

invest in a stock like tesla

39:19

or amc if somebody told you it was going

39:22

to take

39:23

71 years to break even on your

39:25

investment

39:26

of course not if that's what our

39:28

government is doing

39:30

the reality is with 100 billion dollars

39:33

we could wave taxes on

39:36

all californians making less than 250

39:39

000

39:39

dollars for three years folks the

39:42

high-speed rail is estimated to cost

39:44

over 100 billion dollars

39:46

do would you rather have a high-speed

39:48

choo-choo train for a hundred billion

39:50

dollars or no income taxes

39:51

under 250 000 for the first three years

39:54

come on folks

39:56

it's common sense even if we were to

39:58

spend the money on

39:59

infrastructure to reduce our traffic

40:01

problems why don't we spend the money

40:04

dealing with our traffic issues where we

40:06

actually have traffic

40:07

the high speed rail is estimated to cost

40:09

125 million dollars per mile

40:11

underground tunnels which are mass

40:14

transit

40:15

bus systems and our commuter cars could

40:18

use

40:18

cost about 10 million dollars per mile

40:21

folks that means instead of spending

40:22

money on a high-speed rail where we

40:24

don't really have a traffic issue

40:26

we could be investing in tunnels where

40:29

we spend

40:30

a fraction of the money on actually

40:32

solving a traffic issue that we really

40:34

have

40:34

think about it if we invested and built

40:37

an optional

40:38

variable direction toll road underneath

40:39

our busy highways

40:41

like the 5 the 405 or the 5

40:45

we can actually solve traffic by

40:47

providing folks an

40:48

optional path if they're willing to pay

40:51

for it now it's optional that's because

40:53

we still have the freeway which will be

40:54

completely free but if they want to go

40:56

faster

40:56

and uh skip traffic they could use a

40:58

tunnel system

41:00

our buses would be allowed to use these

41:01

tunnel systems as well

41:03

increasing the efficacy of our mass

41:04

transit they're safer in earthquakes

41:07

than above ground transportation

41:09

and think about it kind of like being

41:10

underwater in an ocean with waves

41:13

and they're much cheaper and we can

41:15

build them where we need them

41:17

folks these are the kinds of common

41:19

sense solutions that we need

41:20

now i'm not saying that 100 tunnels are

41:23

the solution to everything

41:24

but they are a solution that is better

41:27

than what we're doing now

41:28

and that's the kind of governor we need

41:30

somebody who's going to lead with

41:32

realistic solutions and actually be a

41:35

leader that's why we have to vote for

41:36

kevin paffrath

41:38

and stop the [ __ ] how did the bay

41:39

area's housing crunch get this bad

41:41

the number of people in california who

41:43

can afford to buy a home

41:44

continues to fall the southern

41:46

california real estate

41:48

market is hotter than ever uh the state

41:50

is dealing

41:51

with a major growing housing crisis this

41:54

has been a political football really

41:56

in the state for for many years many

41:58

people are unable to afford

42:00

sky high rents or pay their mortgages

42:02

and thousands are living on the streets

42:04

he says state county and local leaders

42:07

need to take bold steps

42:08

local governments could zone more area

42:11

for multi-family housing

42:12

they could make the permitting process

42:14

for multi-family

42:15

housing easier before the housing crisis

42:18

gets worse

42:19

so california has implemented

42:23

a lot of regulations at the state level

42:26

and also at the local level that makes

42:29

it

42:30

very difficult and very expensive to

42:32

build new housing

42:33

and the fundamental reason is we we just

42:36

simply don't build enough

42:38

and what we do build is very very

42:40

expensive

42:41

why we have such a high housing prices

42:43

here the first mistake

42:45

is to allow virtually anyone to file

42:48

a lawsuit against any development

42:52

if it has or allegedly has adverse

42:55

environmental consequences do the

42:57

parties that file them do they make

42:59

money from these lawsuits they

43:01

absolutely make money

43:03

there are some legitimate environmental

43:06

lawsuits but they serve

43:09

to further the interests of these

43:11

environmental

43:12

organizations have we reached a point

43:14

where a city like san francisco

43:16

is not livable anymore we have reached

43:18

that point and what can

43:20

people do to change this i think the

43:23

message is don't let don't let them kick

43:25

the can anymore

43:26

force them to face up what the realities

43:28

are california is

43:29

incredibly expensive it's become

43:32

unaffordable nearly 40 percent of

43:34

californians are living

43:35

at or near poverty and as a humane

43:38

society this is something we just

43:40

shouldn't tolerate

43:41

real estate hits near and dear to me

43:42

because real estate is how i began

43:44

building my wealth first as a real

43:45

estate agent

43:46

then broker than real estate investor

43:48

and i've never

43:49

evicted a tenant and i work with

43:51

everybody

43:52

to try to make sure everybody can build

43:54

wealth that works with me

43:56

but the reality is we have a lack of

43:59

homes in this state

44:00

that's why the median home price is

44:02

eight hundred thousand dollars

44:04

that's unacceptable it's unlivable what

44:07

we need

44:08

are not 482 building regulations

44:12

that is 482 different building and

44:14

safety departments we need to streamline

44:17

our building and safety process

44:18

so we can speed up construction and let

44:21

the free market help us solve our

44:23

housing crisis i'm not saying completely

44:25

remove government

44:26

from housing but we need to streamline

44:29

the process

44:30

speed it up and make it reasonable again

44:32

so that way we can redevelop our

44:34

abandoned strip malls or facilities that

44:36

we could turn into town homes or condos

44:39

so that we can build new communities

44:41

next to solar and wind farms

44:43

so rather than burning off or excess

44:45

solar or wind energy we can actually

44:47

supply that energy

44:48

to new communities and help change our

44:51

climate

44:51

future by positively affecting climate

44:54

change with net

44:55

negative communities that is having

44:57

communities built near solar and wind

44:59

farms

44:59

so we have thousands of new homes and we

45:02

have communities that

45:04

create more energy than they use we can

45:07

do these things

45:08

by streamlining regulation while at the

45:10

same time still

45:11

respecting local ordinances to make sure

45:14

we maintain the beauty of each

45:16

individual city we can do this

45:19

but we need a strong leader who realizes

45:22

that

45:22

current law doesn't work governor newsom

45:25

just cheered the signing of

45:26

sb7 this was a housing efficiency bill

45:30

well when i read the bill i was shocked

45:32

to find out that the housing efficiency

45:34

bill would only streamline the

45:36

environmental review process if you're

45:38

building a property worth at least

45:41

15 million dollars so in other words

45:43

anyone building

45:45

less expensive homes is not getting

45:47

streamlined

45:48

housing regulation via sb7 which

45:50

governor newsome just cheered as

45:52

something that would streamline housing

45:53

regulation

45:54

but when i read the bill further i

45:56

realized that these developers with 15

45:58

million

45:59

plus projects can apply for streamlined

46:01

permits

46:02

through the governor's office in other

46:04

words we have a governor

46:06

who's consolidating power in his office

46:10

while making the problems for us normal

46:13

californians

46:14

worse this is unacceptable

46:17

it's time for a change it's time to stop

46:19

the [ __ ]

46:21

and it's time to vote for kevin pafroth

46:23

for governor let's get right to live

46:25

pictures of looting that is still going

46:27

on

46:28

chopper 5 is over the walmart store in

46:31

san leandro

46:32

where people have been running in and

46:34

out of a side door with whatever they

46:36

can carry

46:37

out and now we are seeing some smoke

46:39

coming out of the store but police are

46:41

just now moving

46:42

in and we will certainly keep an eye on

46:44

this

46:45

because of what they described as roving

46:47

bands of looters

46:49

and rioters

47:11

but tonight they accuse police of racial

47:13

profiling

47:14

there exists racism in our criminal

47:17

justice

47:17

system here's just a quick example

47:20

traffic stops

47:21

are studied and researched to

47:23

disproportionately affect

47:25

blacks and hispanics leading to over

47:27

policing of those already

47:28

disproportionately affected by poverty

47:30

and we already know that if you are in

47:32

poverty

47:33

you have a twice likelihood of being a

47:37

victim of violent

47:38

crime folks when we start connecting the

47:40

dots

47:41

we realize that crime economics

47:44

poverty and racism and policing are all

47:48

interconnected and so this is why we

47:50

have to solve

47:51

all of the issues from why we have

47:53

poverty education

47:54

homelessness why we have issues in these

47:57

areas

47:58

but also realizing that you might know

48:01

that

48:01

racial profiling is illegal but did you

48:04

know

48:05

that vehicular profiling is legal

48:08

that is officers can profile vehicles

48:11

that potentially

48:12

look black or look hispanic folks

48:15

governor gavin newsom bankrupted

48:18

one-third of california's restaurants

48:20

disproportionately affecting blacks and

48:22

hispanics blacks and hispanics

48:24

and all californians should vote for

48:28

somebody who understands that the issues

48:30

in our society

48:31

specifically surrounding crime and

48:33

punishment

48:34

revolve around many complicated issues

48:37

any leader that can connect the dots

48:39

between all of these and solve them

48:41

is somebody that you should vote for

48:43

here's an example of how to solve the

48:44

issues

48:45

first we need future schools that teach

48:49

financial education and give folks an

48:51

opportunity

48:52

even adults an opportunity to get

48:54

educated even if that means

48:56

paying students who are over 18

48:59

to go to future schools two thousand

49:01

dollars per month

49:02

we would only be spending forty eight

49:04

thousand dollars in a two year period

49:06

investing in californians to make sure

49:08

they don't go back to crime to make sure

49:10

they don't end up homeless to make sure

49:12

they're not desperate and in despair and

49:14

in poverty

49:14

but instead have a financial education

49:16

and a career via future schools

49:19

and then guess what we don't end up

49:21

spending 120

49:22

000 a year babysitting someone in jail

49:26

because that's what we do right now

49:27

doesn't it make sense to invest in

49:30

californians

49:30

rather than waste money over spending in

49:34

our jails

49:35

we need community policing we need more

49:37

transparent policing

49:39

we need faster release of body camera

49:41

footage and body cameras that are

49:42

actually on

49:43

all of the time not turned on

49:46

when desired to be turned on but we also

49:49

need funding

49:50

for better training and the funding that

49:53

does exist

49:54

needs to be better monitored and more

49:56

transparent

49:57

and so it's together with community

49:59

policing transparency budget oversight

50:02

and education that we can slowly start

50:06

undoing the disaster

50:08

of criminal justice in our state

50:12

because right now we have a governor who

50:14

just turns a blind eye to crime

50:16

get this in the mojave desert illegal

50:20

cannabis

50:20

farms are tapping our fire hydrants

50:24

for precious water to farm their illegal

50:27

crops

50:29

eighty percent of cannabis sales in

50:31

california

50:32

are illegal five years after california

50:35

voters

50:36

voted to make cannabis sales legal it's

50:40

literally been a full five-year plan

50:42

and we still have 80 percent of our

50:43

cannabis sales illegal

50:45

why well it's because of overbearing

50:47

regulations and overbearing permits
