Episde 242 - Convo with Michael Oxford, Candidate for State Senate

[00:00:00] If you're a California conservative, a libertarian, a moderate Democrat, believe in common sense,

[00:00:11] or just the same person, this is the political podcast for you.

[00:00:15] It's the big giant things. I made a video about it. It went viral and I ended up on Tucker Carl Oh. Stay of emergency was almost over at that point and It's they're still asking you where I'm mask at that time Yeah, right and say they his his reasoning was I guess San Francisco was saying that

[00:04:26] He was saying that San Francisco shut down the job site if they got I think three CO talked about earlier where I had that moment where it was like a I was turned down You know what I mean the moment I decided was when I was turned down by a local company there's I won't put them on blast, but it's a local company in the town that I live in and It's a Christian organization and they needed an audio video

[00:05:41] Supervisor and this is a position that I was way over qualified

[00:05:45] You know I was the head guy at Apple. I was the looking at the options. And I looked, I was looking at either state assembly or state Senate and I just decided for Senate because John Laird is such a turd. It's really. Well, let's talk about your opponent, John Laird. What is your opinion on him?

[00:07:01] I don't know too much about him.

[00:07:03] I like to try and keep up on all politicians,

[00:07:06] but I'm assuming because of your district. So even though you're running a deep you want to change California, you're not

[00:09:42] going to change it by electing a congressman, you're not going to change it by whoever L. Chata schools, restore parental rights and education, save women's sports, medical bodily autonomy, restore doctor patient confidentiality, constitutional carry, big fan. Okay, like that. Repeal the gas tax, lower income taxes, self, sell and privatize the high speed rail project, fund the police, defund the NGOs, robin is blind, enforce sidewalk camping laws, no more

[00:11:04] free fentanyl needles, deport illegal immigrants who are caught committing crime. It's okay, we'll cut this out and post. So that's the great thing about this is we can cut this out and post after the fact. Meanwhile, hold on, we new state senator. So he's not, he hasn't been around for a while. Uh, that, that, that, that, that, so before, uh, we lost connection. What I was saying was, uh, even though you said it was, I was actually looking it up. It was 64% that John Laird won by, um, which I was surprised also that of your platform while you were off. So let's go through it and talk about if your plans to kind of implement these different issues. Vents and all's got to be the biggest thing in California. It's the biggest scourge that I don't think people are talking about here in California and how deadly it is.

[00:15:03] We did a whole keep doing it. So Prop 47, I had no idea how bad Prop 47 was. You know, everybody knows that, well, most people know that it reduced stealing from nine, stealing $950 worth of merchandise from a store.

[00:16:20] It made that a misdemeanor and district attorneys don't prosecute misdemeanors in California.

[00:16:27] So essentially decriminalize that.

[00:17:23] video of him talking about the fentanyl dealers in San Francisco, how there are a lot of them are from Honduras. And what he says is these fentanyl dealers were trafficked here. They were

[00:17:29] human trafficked here. And they are essentially made to sell fentanyl on our streets or

[00:17:37] the cartel people will hurt their family back home. So he says essentially in this video, fairly large quantities picking up large quantities from a, I mean, highly organized organization. And the worst part when you really think about it, since all of this stuff's been decriminalized, a lot of people are really upset with all the fentanyl you saw the drug dealing. Everybody knows

[00:19:01] who these fentanyl dealers are. People on the streets. Like wrap your brain around that. Like it's madness. This isn't like I have some genius plan to get rid of fentanyl and get fentanyl off the streets. I don't know the genius plan.

[00:20:21] This is very simple stuff.

[00:20:23] Deport the fentanyl dealers when you arrest them.

[00:20:26] Deport them.

[00:20:29] Don't allow people to do fentanyl on the streets. do make something worse. It's destroying the middle class. It's destroying small business. Companies are closing down leaving San Francisco grocery stores, retail stores. At what point you have to ask is this all a purpose? It's madness, man. So yeah, sorry. I get worked up when I it's I love San Francisco so much. It's it was such a huge part of my childhood.

[00:21:43] I'm from the Bay Area born and raised. I said and this I mean this it gives me goosebumps He says the Bay Area is not a place for tourism right now He said that my jaw dropped on the floor. I say he's he's right. Oh my god He's right never in my life has the Bay Area not been a place for tourism. Are you kidding me?

[00:23:02] San Francisco the Santa Cruz Mountains the Redwoods Napa

[00:23:05] Oakland Oakland's beautiful all the glorious magical things There's a certain standard of society that they've just completely forgotten, which is like we to live in a civilized society. There are certain things that unwritten rules just as human beings in the 21st century. We've realized you just you don't do drugs in the street, public intoxication.

[00:24:22] I mean, this stuff that it's just you don't do this in front of kids.

[00:24:26] You don't have open-air drug markets. thing. This is a terrible idea. This is a horrible idea. This is, it's the exact opposite of what I want to do. I want to bring back sanitarians. I want them privately run. But I also want this 30 30 day detox and some sort of work program. A lot of these people that are sorry if I cut you off, man, it's just that triggers me that the state having the authority to rip people off the

[00:25:41] streets and throw them in a mental institution. That's, that's psychotic.

[00:25:44] That's why they shut down the sanitar exactly what the left would want to do the left are straight up authoritarian She triggered me dude, I didn't know that well. Yeah, it's it's Something I've been following because it's an area of law that I practice

[00:27:01] And yeah, it literally is when people ask me like well are now passing this conservatorship law to just get them off the streets, but they're not addressing the root causes, which is fentanyl, drugs is a big one. And the other biggest one is that the affordability

[00:28:20] in California is just so out of whack,

[00:28:23] everybody's living paycheck to paycheck.

[00:28:26] And if everyone's started coming out saying, I completely agree with you.

[00:29:42] So I can't say nothing, you know, because I'll get fired or.

[00:29:47] And I just realized yes, I am trying to get Democrats to vote for me because you guys used to like me. I'm from here. I grew up with you guys and then all of a sudden 2016 comes around and I'm this evil guy.

[00:31:06] What happened? I don't want to see anybody else jumping off the Golden Gate bridge because they got monsters in their brain, you know, it's what we're allowing people to do is destroy themselves.

[00:32:23] It's, it's sick.

[00:32:25] It's sick.

[00:32:25] What we're doing.

[00:33:25] more common sense, more moderate than they believe who are out there in California, it just takes people like yourself speaking up about it and letting

[00:33:28] people know and like not being afraid to speak up and let people know about it.

[00:33:32] Otherwise people do assume it's just a deep blue state and their voice doesn't

[00:33:36] mean anything. have to run the entire state and pass all the crazy bills. So I think there needs to be more people like yourself speaking up about this. Well, it's also like if somebody has a conservative position and they want to talk about it, like you're not supposed to talk politics in the workplace, right? But if you have

[00:35:00] one of those conversations you're not supposed to have, you have to do it in whispers

[00:35:04] if you're a conservative and you take that position. Not even not even that. Say you're liberal and you're like, yeah, I don't think we should allow people to camp on the sidewalk. Or I don't think we should be giving kids puberty blockers. You know, if you take any of those stances, if you're a liberal, you're kicked out, which was, you know, like pick your genocidal regime. A lot of people say, you know, why didn't the people leave when they started seeing the writing on the wall? Pick your genocidal regime, doesn't matter. They try

[00:39:01] to make that comparison with California about how authoritarian it's coming and people got To abandon your home you love this place what you born here and plus I don't know the means to run Where am I gonna go my whole my whole social network is here my friends are here? The small amount of family that I have her here Where am I gonna go? I don't have money either remember I've been canceled. It's Yeah, it doesn't doesn't make any sense. I'm not going anywhere. I'm not running. It's I'm going down with the ship. I guess

[00:40:26] Well at one point

[00:41:25] hope that these propositions continually get voted down. Yeah, it should. Well, it should give people hope that there is a very large conservative element in California.

[00:41:36] The thing that is sort of a black pill is the further you look into California elections, the more horrible it gets. Okay. uh, before we end on the hour, I was talking about there was, if you want proof of what you're talking about, there was that judicial wash lawsuit where they found, I don't know how a million voters in the LA voter rolls that they had to clean up that were just not they were ineligible. They didn't live there or they were dead. So it was a million voters

[00:44:21] in LA, which is an astronomical number, Oh, we have a month to vote, a month.

[00:45:43] Yeah.
