Antonio VillaraigosaGUEST
And so, you know, if anybody deserves criticism, frankly, it should have been done right after I left by that administration.
Antonio VillaraigosaGUEST
By Mayor Garcetti.
Antonio VillaraigosaGUEST
Absolutely.
Antonio VillaraigosaGUEST
That's when it should have been done.
Madeleine BrandHOST
Where did she go wrong, in your opinion?
Antonio VillaraigosaGUEST
You know, I've said this.
Antonio VillaraigosaGUEST
She did not inherit the city I left Eric Garcetti.
Antonio VillaraigosaGUEST
That's just a fact.
Austin CrossHOST
And if you can maybe point out just how is it different from the approach that Karen Bass was taking?
David ZahniserGUEST
Well, I think the thing that's actually easiest to understand her is that I expect her to pursue many of the initiatives that were heavily favored by Eric Garcetti.
David ZahniserGUEST
Nithya Raman is an urban planner by training, so she's really deeply interested in building much more private sector housing to bring down rents.
David ZahniserGUEST
She wants to expand the city's network of bike lanes and bus lanes and public transit.
John KobyltHOST
is going to be putting together a new set of advisors, and I'll get to this later.

John KobyltHOST
Eric Garcetti, the man who truly is to blame for destroying much of Los Angeles.

Here we go.
John KobyltHOST
California Post headline.
John KobyltHOST
Nithya Raman eyes City Hall shakeup as former L.A. Mayor Eric Garcetti veterans emerge in a new administration.
Ben ShapiroHOST
Karen Bass, who is also a basic socialist, was the mayor before her.
Ben ShapiroHOST
And Eric Garcetti, who is a big lib, was the mayor before them.
Ben ShapiroHOST
So it's just getting worse.
Ben ShapiroHOST
Again, what happens in all of these areas is you make it more expensive to build because what you want to do is regulate the developers, right? Those rich, evil developers.
Mel KHOST
But what people need to know is that government accountability is a real problem.
Mel KHOST
And people are seeing more and more fraud be put out there, shown to everyone.
Mel KHOST
But I don't think they fully know the whole matrix of how the money works, where it goes.
Mel KHOST
And frankly, what I see that you and Peter put out and Seamus Bruner is it's by design.
7 MINS LATER
Mel KHOST
And I know you you do know.
Mel KHOST
What I've learned is that, particularly in California and New York, but California very much, California has signed on, all the way back to Jerry Brown, to almost everything that Brookings and Center for American Progress and the EU and the Agenda 2030, they are very invested in the sustainable development goals.
Mel KHOST
And what it looks like has happened, particularly in California, but all over the country, is that these NGOs, they call themselves civil society organizations, these NGOs that are aligned with the UN and the World Economic Forum and the COP conferences and all this, that they actually seem to be functioning in what I'm seeing above even the government officials, the legislature, the city council, all that, that really in California, Things have been put in over the years from Jerry Brown to then Newsom to everyone else, Garcetti.
Mel KHOST
These people were making deals with the globalist organizations that had nothing to do with the citizens of the United States, let alone California.
John KobyltHOST
You just wait.
John KobyltHOST
You cannot survive Viragosa, Garcetti, Bass, and Rahman over a 20-year period.
John KobyltHOST
You can't do that.
John KobyltHOST
That's it.
Matt HamiltonGUEST
that her predecessors have put in place.
Matt HamiltonGUEST
The Olympics have been on the books under the Garcetti administration.
Matt HamiltonGUEST
So these are the structural challenges she will have to work around.
Matt HamiltonGUEST
They're all going to be drains on the budget and limit her flexibility.
Matt HamiltonGUEST
Yeah, what did
Antonia CereijidoHOST
the last couple of mayors do?
Matt HamiltonGUEST
So Eric Garcetti and his wife and kids lived there.
Matt HamiltonGUEST
Mayor Bass lived in Getty House.
Randy WangHOST
I make this joke all the time, but it's not even a joke anymore.
Randy WangHOST
We pine for those good old Garcetti days.
speaker_0ADVERTISER
I receive things on both
Randy WangHOST
ends.
Rong-Gong Lin IIGUEST
It just depends, right? In some cities, depending on the exact moment and the exact timing, there has been political will.
Rong-Gong Lin IIGUEST
Mayor Garcetti, he passed a major retrofit requirement in LA that is going to retrofit many thousands of apartment buildings and concrete buildings.
Rong-Gong Lin IIGUEST
But There are also situations where a number of smaller cities haven't done that.
Rong-Gong Lin IIGUEST
I mean, one city that comes to mind is Long Beach that has not passed a retrofit requirement.
Shannon FarrenHOST
That's right.
Gary HoffmannHOST
Eric Garcetti, he wanted more police officers.
Gary HoffmannHOST
Karen Bass is like, yeah, we probably should have more cops.
Gary HoffmannHOST
It looks like Nithya Raman is going to be the next mayor of the city of Los Angeles.
