Summary

The John Kobylt Show Hour 1 (05/29) - John dives into a scathing report with journalist Jamie Paige exposing how Project Roomkey and Homekey spent hundreds of millions on overvalued buildings—many of which now sit empty. He slams city officials for blaming ADA compliance while taxpayers foot the bill. Then, John unpacks Michael Mische’s claim that California’s gas prices—soon hitting $8.50—are entirely self-inflicted by government policies and new carbon standards. Plus, a San Francisco school tries “equity grading” and nearly sets the bar at 21%. Wrapping the hour, John calls out the unelected bureaucrats at the California Air Resources Board for keeping gas prices $2 higher than the national average.
