ots of goals. But as I've been teaching you for a long time, systems are what you need because goals can't be supported without a system. So it's a system that's the important part.

And as Victor Davis Hanson points out, the water storage system was bad. The forest management was bad. Handling the insurance industry was bad. And he mentions the DEI hierarchy of the leadership. And he called it a DEI Green New Deal hydrogen bomb. Like a perfect system collapse because every part of the system kind of collapsed.

Now, do you think it's fair in this case? Now I've been railing against the people who say as soon as there's a problem, you look at the people in charge and if you see they're a certain demographic, the people on the right say, oh, DEI. And I try to caution you that's not proof of DEI being a problem. All you can know for sure is that DEI was a big influence over hiring. You can't know that that's the problem. However, if you do a little research into the people involved, it might give you some insight.

It might, for example, Karen Bass. Did you know that when she was in the '70s she used to travel to Cuba to work with something called the Venceremos Brigade, which was a group that organized annual trips to Cuba for young leftist Americans for many years? Do you know why Cuba would host leftists to come do some awesome things in Cuba, which is just building stuff I guess? Why would they do that? It's to brainwash them against the United States, but gently. You know, just brainwash them that maybe the socialist way is better and then they'll come back to the United States and destroy it or convert it.

So she was actually part of a brainwashing operation. And let me be very clear, a brainwashing operation by Cuba. You bring young people in and you give them this one experience that's very artificial from the general Cuban experience and everything's great and look, we'll just show you the things we want. And did you know the United States is evil? She is unquestionably a brainwash victim. That's not even in debate. If she went there multiple times and was part of a group that was by design a bunch of brainwash victims, how did she un-brainwash herself? I don't believe there's a process for that. If she was brainwashed, it's still in her. You can't undo that.

So do you think that if people were well aware of that, that she would have been in charge of the city, the mayor? No, this one does look like a DEI hire problem, doesn't it? It looks like nobody in their right mind would have hired her for her background and qualifications. But maybe it was a DEI-related want to have a diversity mayor. So I would say you can't say that DEI broke anything, but you could say that that one mayor probably only has her job because people either didn't understand or voted dumb. Maybe it's the public's fault. The public just picked the wrong person.

But at least she's got a strong deputy mayor, so you can't say it's not like one person, right? That often the next level down are doing the real decision-making and stuff. So next level down you get the Los Angeles deputy mayor. So at least he's strong. Oh wait, he's under investigation for allegedly calling in a bomb threat to City Hall. The FBI raided his home recently and he's placed on leave. Okay,
