It's five oh seven on your wake up call. Let's say good morning now to ABC's Peter Haralambus, who's got the proverbial front row seat to the Trump hush money trial in New York. Good morning, Peter, Thanks for having me. Hey, thanks for making time to come and stop by and talk to
us today. I know that we were trying to talk to you yesterday had some technical issues, so we wanted to be sure to talk to you today since you're one of the reporters in the courtroom. How many reporters are in the courtroom now, there's about sixty of us in there. We're locked in there for the entire proceedings and we're allowed to leave. We're not allowed to eat, we're not allowed to drink or talk. So it's a front row
of seat and there's certainly a lot to see, especially after yesterday. Okay, so tell us what happened yesterday. So it began with a very heated hearing about whether or not to hold Donald Trump in criminal contempt for violating the limited gag order in the case on at least ten separate occasions. Occasions prosecutors at this point want to find Trump ten thousand dollars and they want the judge to warn Trump that if he does it again, he could be put into
jail. Now that's actually a serious concern at this point. According to sources familiar with the matter, there have been meetings here in New York about logistics here with the Secret Service, about putting Trump in a temporary confinement sell at the courthouse, or even sending him to rikers. So this is a legitimate concern for the former president. He could face fines, future penalties can include
jail time, and for his lawyers, it's really creating an issue. The judge even lashing out against one of his lawyers in court yesterday, telling him, quote, you're losing all credibility in this court. When the lawyer at that point attempted to argue that the gag order violations weren't wilful and that they were just political speech. Oh okay, But then ultimately the judge didn't make a decision on the gag order or anything in that thread yesterday before I testimony
resumed. Yeah, that's right, So the judge reserved decisions. So we're kind of on standby, waiting for a decision at any moment really about whether or not the former president will be held in contempt. In addition, we expect prosecutors will likely tack on two additional contempt charges that essentially Trump. They alleged that Trump violated the gag order in the hallway on Monday where he attacked Michael Cohen. He also did an interview with one of our affiliates where he
attacked Michael Cohen again yesterday morning before court. So we expect that fine possibly to inch up to about twelve thousand dollars, and then we'll just have to see. Trump has compared himself to a modern day Nelson Mandela when it comes to this gag order, So we'll just have to see whether or not he decides to tempt fade again and possibly violate the gag order and see what the judge does. So, Peter, I have a question, I'm not sure if you know, but on a gag order like this, is it common
to be only imposed on one side and not both. You know, that's one thing that makes the Trump gag order unique here in the civil in this criminal case, because if you look at this pass batgag orders, for example, the one in Washington, DC and the one in the civil fard case in New York that was technically for all the parties in the case, this
gag order is slightly unique and that it's only applying to Trump. But I mean, functionally speaking, Trump's really the only person who's at risk of violating this thing something that he's you know, and if you look back to his civil fraud case last fall, Trump violated the gag order on two separate occasions.
And according to sources who spoke with ABC News ahead of the trial, this was a legitimate concern among Trump's lawyers that Trump might go off the rails, go speak to cameras and unintentionally violate the gag order or do something that
hurts his own case. And it seems like we're seeing that play out in real time, where you know, after opening statements on Monday, Trump exited the hall, exited the courtroom, went into the hallway, and subsequently, according to prosecutors violated the gag order yet again, imperiling his own position and
putting his lawyers in a difficult place as well. Well. And when you and I talked yesterday, when we were having those technical issues, you had said that Trump is having to just sit there and let his lawyers do all the talking. And it's like it seems like he just has to sit there and not say anything for so long that as soon as he leaves the courtroom
he's just got to explode. I know. I mean yesterday, despite having four hours of proceed in this case, Trump only said two words in that courtroom, and that was a good morning when he entered the courtroom to the judge. So Trump has to sit there, he has to let his lawyers do the talking. Yesterday, this was actually someone fastening. Trump walked into
the courtroom clutching a large stack of papers. Basically from what I could see from my seat in the courtroom, they appeared to be news clippings and screenshots of social media posts where whenever Trump's lawyers were at a sidebar, leaving Trump alone at the council table, Trump occupied his time by flipping through the news clippings. You could see when his lawyers came back, Trump would pass them around, pointing out certain lines. He mused them as a little prop in
the hallway when he left after the proceedings ended. But it seems as though he's occupying his time. He's not falling asleep. He's attentive. And during the testimony of David Pecker, which resumed yesterday, Donald Trump was fully locked in, shaking his head at times responding or just fully staring at Pecker as he tell some of these salacious allegations. Okay, so we're off today, Peter, and then do we know who's going to testify tomorrow? Is David
Pecker Dunn or is he going to continue? David Pecker will pick up on Thursday morning at nine thirty. Pecker's testimony. He's the first witness in this case. He's the narrator basically for all these allegations. And yesterday he brought jurors into a secret meeting in twenty fifteen where they hatched this scheme to catch
and kill negative stories. He's testified of about two of the hush moneytaymans, once to a Trump Tower doorman who alleged the Trump had a child out of wedlock that was a false story, and then the second one a alleged affair with Karen McDougal. On Thursday. We expect him to really get into the true hardest testimony, the Stormy Daniels payoff, which led really to the thirty four criminal counts in this case. Okay, so get into the juice tomorrow,
all right, Peter Harlambus, thank you. I said your name wrong again, but I'll get it right eventually. No worries at all. Thank you so much for having me. Thank you so much for your time time today and all that great information. Have fun not eating and not drinking and not talking in the courtroom. Coo, Well, all right, let's get back to some of the stories coming out of the KFI twenty four hour newsroom.
The California Hospital Association has sued Anthem Blue Cross, claiming the insurance company is violating safety laws. Patients are remaining in the hospital waiting for insurance company authorizations and approvals. How can we stop the delay tactics and how can we ultimately require compliance with California's laws? Association president and CEO Carmela Coyles's Anthem is not meeting legal obligations to arrange for timely access to care for its members.
That means patients are backing up in the emergency department who are waiting for that bed otherwise available in the hospital, and most important, it means that patients are unable to get the level of care they need. She says they're suing because patients are suffering. A dust advisories in effect for most of Riverside County the South Coast air Quality Management Districts as strong winds could cause elevated particle pollution
that could result in air quality levels that are unhealthy for sensitive groups. Officials suggest staying inside with doors and windows closed. The advisory will be in effect until Friday night. Caltrans may be adding bike lanes along Topanga Canyon Boulevard from the one eighteen Freeway to Mulholland Drive. The proposal is still in the very early stages, and if approved, the project wouldn't start until twenty twenty eight.
Caltrans spokesman Eric Manivad says the bike lanes would provide a safe option for people who may not want to drive in the area as part of our active transportation plan, and it's also part of LA's mobility plan, which identifies to pang Can Boulevard as a as a location for bike lanes. The project would add bicycle turn signals, new crosswalks, and bicycle signage. People against the projects say they're worried it would only create traffic jams and distract drivers. Chris
Adler KFI News. The FTC is banning non compete agreements that stop people from working for competitors or starting a new competing big business when leaving a job. It says about eighteen percent of the workforce in the US, or thirty million people, is under such agreements. The new rule would force companies to let current and past employees know the agreements won't be enforced. Some business groups are expected to take legal action to block the rule from going into effect. Ah
I've been the victim of a non compete before. They're no fun. The Dodgers take on the Nationals this afternoon in Washington, with first pitch going out

The Senate has passed a ninety five billion dollar bill that includes a mandate to force TikTok's China based parent company to sell
the social media platform or be banned in the US. It's expected to face legal challenges and could disrupt the lives of content creators who rely on the short form video app for income. Five kids have been heard after crashing a car into a cinderblock wall in Boyle Heights. The boys are twelve to fourteen years old. The crash happened during a police chase last night. The driver fourteen years old. Some of the boys were trapped in the crash car and had
to be cut out of it. All were taken to the hospital. Amazon has canceled drone delivery in California. It says it's closing Prime Air delivery in the state so it can expand the service in other areas of the country. There's no word on whether Prime Air will return to California in the future. At six so five, it's handled on the news. A guy pulled over for DUI has been arrested in connection with the shooting of an La County Sheriff's
motorcycle deputy. Let's say good morning now to ABC's text specialist. It's Mike Dubuski. Good morning, Mike, morning Amy. How are you good? Hey? I just mentioned that the Senate passed that foreign aid bill. It also includes a requirement for TikTok to sell. Yeah, that's correct. So President Biden has committed to signing this legislation. Of course, it is bundled along side other foreign aid to places like Ukraine and Israel. This bill did
pass the Senate seventy nine to eighteen. And when President Biden signs this bill, which we expect to happen as soon as today, it is TikTok on the clock and the party will stop for Byte Dance, which is their Chinese
parent company, if they don't divest from TikTok. Now, they have about nine months in order to do that, to cut a deal with an American company or a group of investors if at that time a deal is germinating but it's not quite done, while the President can tack on an additional three months, so they have up to a year in order to sell this very popular social media app. Does it have to be sold to a US company.
That's correct, that's the idea here a group of investors, and that brings up another concern here is that there's only a couple companies out there who are likely to be able to afford TikTok. Yeah, what's it. We don't know specifically for the app itself, but byte Dance, which is the parent company, is valued at about two hundred and twenty five bill billion dollars and TikTok is sort of its flagship product at least here in the US. It
boasts one hundred and seventy million monthly active users. A bunch of businesses rely on it as well. So this is expected to be a very, very big deal and that will one take a lot of time in order to organize, and again will probably be only reserved for the largest companies in the world, people like Meta and Google. And you can imagine if any of those companies step forward expressing interest in acquiring TikTok, well that's going to attract the
attention of antitrust regulators as well. But even before any of that happens, we expect TikTok to mount a legal challenge, probably on First Amendment grounds. Essentially saying that taking away TikTok is removing a crucial platform for speech for Americans. And there's a chance that a federal court could rule that this legislation is unconstitutional, which would send everybody back to the drawing board. And if it's
owned by a Chinese group, do they have standing in US courts? Well, I mean this would be from TikTok's perspective, presumably, and they have American offices and lawyers who could do this. TikTok itself, interestingly enough,
is headquartered in Singapore, not in China. The Byte Dance, of course, is headquartered in China, which goes back to the concern that lawmakers have raised here is that you know, China could come knocking on Byteedance's door and say, hey, you know, share this information with us about this American
user. There are reasons to be skeptical of some of these concerns, though, amy one being that if you're a Chinese spy or a dissident and you know you're communicating via TikTok DM, well you're not a very good spy.
And also the other concern that lawmakers have raised is the potential for TikTok to be used for propaganda, which many experts have sort of raised their eyebrows about with regards to previous foreign influence campaigns on social media platforms like Facebook and Twitter, maybe not as influential as you know, they really could have been. So that has caused some to maybe be a little bit skeptical of some of the concerns that lawmakers have raised. In addition, there's no evidence that these
lawmakers have put forward that either of those things is happening. Interesting except that yesterday FBI Director Christopher Ray said, yes, TikTok is a threat because of that misinformation element. And what's That's another part of it as well, of course, is that you know, this is a social platform that is very popular among young people, and you know, you can get on there and say a whole variety of different things that are not true if you so choose
to do that, and you could potentially go viral for that. Now, TikTok has content moderation guidelines in place, But in addition to that, it's just, you know, kind of a separate issue than the foreign influence idea. The foreign influence idea has to do with propaganda and rallying people around you know, a pro China narrative. That's kind of hard to do, you know, given how difficult it is for any campaign to gain action on social
media. And you know, if you look back to the Russian influence campaign ahead of the twenty sixteen election, that was mainly aimed at kind of dividing people, at pushing people apart, not rallying them behind a common cause. So you know, again there is certainly the potential for misinformation on TikTok. Will it come in the form of Chinese propaganda? We have not really seen any evidence come forward yet. So these are certainly plausible concerns, they're just
not they're not, you know, evidence to base yet they're hypothetical. Okay, So the clock is tiktoking for TikTok to sell, and you need somebody with a lot of money, maybe Elon Muskill buy it. I mean, like, given Tesla's most recent earnings report, which we got to look at last night from Tesla, he might not be able to afford it either. What was the earnings report? So this was their quarter one earnings. This
was a highly anticipated call and it was real bad amy. Profits were down for Tesla fifty five percent year on year, revenues were down nine percent, and Musk blamed these kind of negative numbers on conflicts in the Red Sea, an attack at its Berlin factory that resulted in an arson case, as well as the rise of hybrid vehicles. And this all of course comes amid slowing demand for electric vehicles generally, which has caused Tesla over the last year to
slash prices, perhaps contributing to some of these numbers that we're seeing. These are new lows for the company. The company hasn't seen negative numbers like this in about six years. Though it's worth mentioning they still made a billion dollars worth of net profits and they are now again the largest EV company in the world, reclaiming that title from a Chinese firm called byd. I'm wondering, Mike, if the sales are down because the number of people who want Tesla's
and want to buy electric cars is kind of topped out. That is potentially the truth there amy this. The logic the analysts will tell you is that the EV sector is undergoing a pretty major shift right now. We're moving away from the early adopters, the people who have high tolerance for frustrations with charging and public charging infrastructure, the extra cost outlay at the beginning for buying an
electric vehicle, the premium that they command over traditional gas cars. That sector of the market now have already bought their evs right So now the EV sector has to gain the attention of mainstream consumers who have a lower tolerance for all that sort of thing. So that is a challenge that is facing every EV company right now, as well as Tesla. Tesla is in a particularly fraught moment right now because traditional automakers have now spun up pretty competitive electric vehicles.
Both Hyundai and Kia, BMW, General Motors forward, they all have cars that compete pretty competitively with Tesla products. Do they cost a lot less? It depends on what we're talking about here. Given that Tesla has slashed prices,
they are pretty cheap now, I mean at least comparatively speaking. And elon Musk yesterday and now that some cheaper models are in the pipeline, these could be replacements for the Model three in the model why really, they're bread and butter products and they will run on next gen architecture, which we supposedly will get a look at on August eighth, which is when Tesla will unveil the cyber Cab, which is the robotaxi that kind of underpins their next phase.
They say, where they're going to transition away from being a traditional car maker into a company that operates a fleet of robotaxis. Of course, there are a lot of question marks around that as well. And interestingly enough, given those announcements, Tesla shares were actually up after all these negative numbers yesterday. Okay, and we are of course out of time, but I want to ask you really quick about the Rabbit launch party that you went to last
night. What's Rabbit? So, Rabbit's a new company, It's an AI company that's making a new piece of hardware. It's a little orange device that is kind of the latest in an emerging genre of AI powered device, artificial intelligence making its way out of the software world and into the hardware world. The idea behind this device is that it will cut down the amount of steps
it takes to do something on your phone. So instead of opening your phone, unlocking it, trying not to get substracted by TikTok or Twitter, and then opening Uber and calling a car this thing, you can just pull it out, speak into it say, hey, call me an uber to JFK Airport and it will organize that for you. And so it's like next generation
series sort of. It's kind of like very advanced SERI and it's got a camera and it you know, does a whole host of other things as well, food delivery and it will check stocks and you know, take pictures and you know, identify things for you. But it is it's I would say, it's very interesting looking. It's bright orange. It's designed by a company named Teenage Engineering, which has a sort of retro futurism kind of vibe to
it. They unveiled it at the TWA Hotel here in New York City last night, which is this sort of very sixties inspired, fancy, you know, glitzy hotel. It was cool. They had a DeLorean like it was. It was a lot of fun. But yeah, the big question, of course, is does this thing actually work in the real world. And I spoke to some early adopters and they say, they're going to give me a callback next week to see how this thing operates in the real world.
Is it available to the public now or is it still kind of being test run. It is available to the public, you can go buy one. Of course, this first batch was for the people who first plucked out two hundred dollars, which is what it costs when it was first unveiled at Cees earlier this year. But you can go to their website and buy one. As I said, they're about two hundred dollars, which comes in far below other AI powered devices that we've seen crop up, namely the Humane AI pin,
which got a lot of attention in recent weeks. This is a wearable device that kind of does some of the same stuff, but it doesn't have a screen and you have pin it to yourself. A lot of people didn't really like this thing. They said, the AI systems don't work, they go wrong, the pin over heats, and it's uncomfortable to wear. That, of course, is seven hundred dollars plus the cost of a phone plan.
This thing coming in a lot cheaper than that, so perhaps people will have a you know, be a little bit more accepting of things if stuff goes wrong way, it just feels like something, not someone, something is watching you all the time. I don't like that as well, you know that I think might just be part and parcel of living in twenty twenty four. That's sure, that's the way it is. Okay, Mike Dubuski, thank you so much for pitch inch hitting hitting well whatever it is, no
problem, happy to do it. Thanks. We'll talk to you soon. Y take care of me. Bye. The man who allegedly smashed a glass door and broke into La Mayor Bass's house has been charged with burglary and vandalism. DA George Gascone says twenty nine year old f from Hunter knew it was the Mayor's house and specifically targeted her. He's facing more than thirteen years in
prison if convicted. Property crime in LA is down more than four percent this year compared to last, but interim Police chief dominic choices, robberies and burglaries are up. The numbers were presented at yesterday's Board of Police Commissioners meeting.

The Court will hear arguments today that we'll determine when doctors can provide abortions during medical emergencies in states that have passed abortion bans since Roe versus Wade was overturned. It's a challenge to a law in Idaho. One of the fourteen states that now bound most abortions. At six oh five, it's handle on the news that break in at Mayor Bass's house, as I mentioned, not a random
act. Please say the mayor was targeted. At five point fifty, we're going to be talking with a sexual assault Prevention and Response victim's advocate for the Department of Defense. It is Sexual Assault Awareness and Prevention Month. Right now, let's say good morning to thirteen Times James Beard Award winning food journalist and food reporter Steve Dolinski with Pizza City Fest LA. Good morning, Steve. So we hear that there's going to be a whole heck of a lot of
pizza in LA this weekend. So and I'm just hearing about this and went, oh my god, we got to talk to this guy. So tell us what pizza Pizza Cityfest LA is. Yeah, this is the second year we're doing the event. We had a great sellout last year. Pizza City Fest started in Chicago, where I'm based. I'm a food reporter there. I've been there for thirty years, but I've really been into pizza the last eight years. I wrote a couple of books about it. I have a
podcast about it. Have a tour business in Chicago, and we started the Pizza Fest because we wanted to bring together the best, the brightest, the coolest, the most interesting pizza places in one region and really highlight them for the public, but also teach people about pizza, about things like crust and crumb and undercarriage, different styles of pizza, Neapolitan versus Detroit, versus Sicilian
versus Roman. And so I've been visiting LA the last several years and I realized since the pandemic, there has been this wave of amazing pizzas here that people used to say, oh, LA doesn't have great pizza. You can't say that anymore. From Santa Barbara to San Diego, where I curated this from, and you know, into the Ie out to Corona, I've found forty of the best pizza places, I think, in the region. And so we've got twenty pizzeris each day at LA live on the event deck with
ten ovens, so they're baking these pizzas live. We've also got educational panels and demos and seminars, and then a nice component of this event is we always donate back to the communities we're in, so We've given a ten thousand dollars donation to see CAP, which is Careers through Culinary Arts programs, helping high school students get jobs in the culinary industry. So I think it's a
win win for everybody. I love that. Okay, now, Steve, if I heard you right, you said you hand picked these pizzas, so you've tried them all? Yes, I have, Wow, have the best job ever. Well several trips to curate this, because honestly, I want this to reflect my taste. I think you know, as a food reporter who's been doing this for thirty years, I just because you've been business for forty years doesn't give you an automatic shoe in to this event. Just because
you're the most popular person on Facebook doesn't mean you get an invite. You know, we we invite all these places, we pay them to be there, and so it is a very highly curated event. I love that. Now you're from Chicago, and I love my I love me a good deep dish. So is there Do you have a favorite kind of pizza yourself?
I like a really thin, artisan style pizza, kind of an East Coast thin that has kind of a pronounced heel around the edge a very dark, burnished brown crust, typically fermented for two to three days to really build flavor. And that kind of pizza does exist. I mean you'll find it. I think there's a great East Coast pie in mar Vista in a church parking lot on Fridays. Only love that called Petra Malay and he does two styles of pizza there, a Sicilian and a thin that I like that in a
lot. Okay, So people go to Pizza City fest La. They're gonna there's twenty a day and you just go around and just grab slices wherever you go. Are they sample sizes so you can try more exactly? Yeah, nobody can eat twenty slices of pizza Humber. You are, well, it's tricky. It's none of these are gluten free, just by the way. Yeah, so they're gonna they're gonna be cut a little bit smaller. Yeah, sample sizes. You're gonna walk around, you'll just you'll see the menu.
Each place has one menu item. So the way I've curated it, since we have twenty, we'll have ten bee for pork, ten without and one of those withouts will be a plain cheese slice. Because I feel like you gotta have one cheese slice at every event because you cannot hide behind anything there. It's just the cheese and the crust. So that's you'll have whatever you want, as much as you want. It's unlimited. It's unlimited drinks too. Most food events you go to you pay a lot of extra and
drinks. We just have one price includes every thing, all the drinks, all the food, unlimited, plus some side dishes like rown In from the Millrose district is doing a great teeser salad, a place called Shins Pizzas doing a n arancini, and then we're gonna have desserts as well. Places like Kinrose Creamery in Pasadena and Laid Cookies in Culver City will have sweets. So everything's included. I love it. And tickets are still available, Yeah,
definitely. We've got general mission Saturday and Sunday that's from one pm to five pm. But then there's a slightly more expensive VIP ticket that gives you the entire run of this place from noon to one. So there's only about three hundred people that will be there from noon to one to have the place themselves, but it is one to five as general mission tickets are one twenty five and then the VIP is two hundred, but again one twenty five includes everything.
You will not need to spend anything else unless you want to buy a merch you know, a t shirt from your favorite pizzeria. I love that. And it's happening this weekend at and where can people go to get tickets? Steve, yep, Pizzacityfest dot com. That's Pizzacityfest dot com. And you'll see the tab for La there and just it to take your way through. Okay, well, I still think you probably have the best job in America. That's it sounds so delicious. Thank you so much for the information.
And manga maja. Let's have some pizza my pleasure. We'll see this weekend. All right, thanks Steve Man. I'm hungry.

The GOOT is setting an industry wide standard for what constitutes a significant flight delay at three hours for domestic flight, six hours for international travel. Before now, the airlines themselves created the guideline. Under the new rules, passengers whose flights are delayed, we'll get an
automatic HAGO free cash refund. The same goes for lost or delayed baggage.

He is one of Money Magazine's fifty Best places to live in the US. Money says it picked towns that have thriving economies, affordability, diversity, and an exceptional quality of life. We're just minutes from a handle on the news this morning that plan to shoot and kill mule deer or taking over Catalina Island has been shot down by the La County Board of Supervisors. Right now, let's say good morning too someone who works for the DoD and it just happens
to be the daughter of one of my best friends. She is sexual assault Prevention and Response victim advocate for the Department of Defense. It's Jordan Bailey. Good morning, Jordan, Good morning. So Jordan, real quick, we started talking about this because my friend Debbie was in town over the weekend and you and I started chatting and you were telling us about a meeting that you recently had with Myra gian who is the sister of Private Vanessa Gean at Fort
Hood in Texas. You'll remember a couple of years ago she went missing, they couldn't find her, and then she turned up dead. It turns out she had been sexually assaulted and sexually harassed, and so it just kind of got us talking about what it is you do. And so, first of all, real quick, tell us what you do for the Department of Defense. So I am a victim advocate for sexual assault on sexual harassment victims, and so I am there to help provide resources, whether that be mental health
resources. If they want to file a report with us, they can either unrestricted or restricted. It's just an opportunity for them to kind of get some healing and process through what's happened to them. And we're finding out more and more that you know, this sexual abuse and harassment happens across all sectors of society. This is not a bash on the military. I mean, you're in the military and you're fighting for victims and you love being or you were
in the military you just recently got out. I think it shows that there are bad apples kind of in every bit business and industry. So we know that sexual assault is everywhere, How is the military different when it comes to investigating and punishing these crimes? So I will say the investigation important portion is kind of out of my out of my lane. Really, My my role is really just the victim care. You know. I would love to believe that we are, you know, a step ahead of how we deal with
our victims. But the actual investigation process is kind of out of my lane. But what I deal with is the aftercare. So we we walk them through. If there's an understricted report and it gets you know, God forbid, it gets all the way to a court martial, we walk into that process. So and you're and you're there. You're there to help them navigate things and heal after they yeah, being a victim, yes, okay, And and I've been through several investigations, so we kind of get to help
them navigate through what that, what that looks like? Okay, So as they then go to the criminal process or the investigative process, you're not doing that, but you're kind of holding their hand as they go through it. No. No, there's a team of wonderful people in the Air Force on my end that are in charge of that and take care of all that part.
My part is to kind of walk them through the investigation. I can go into court with them, I can essentially I am their advocate for in their voice that they need to be if they don't have a voice, or if they need someone to help speak up on their behalf. See, this is why it's important that we're talking to you, because I think there's you know, like obviously I don't know anything about it. I think that we don't know exactly what happens, how people can heal, and that there are
resources out there. And you work with victims every day, and as we were talking, you can get calls at any hour of the day because you know, this is not on a nine to five. What is your message to somebody who may be getting sexually harassed or is a victim of sexual violence. I would just urge them to try and find a way to reach out how they can. So if they're affiliated with the military, they can obviously reach out to us. If they're not affilated with the military, find someone
that can reach out to. There are crisis centers all over the US. There's several actually in your guys' local area. There's a family crisis center that they can reach out to that I found in that area. If they are victims of those crimes, they can reach out to. It's called dood Self Safe Helpline as well, and that is an anonymous place. It's a wonderful tool because not only is there a website that's really easy to use, but
they're also on call. Just like I'm on call twenty four seven, they also have members who are on call twenty four seven, so they can reach out anonymously or not anonymously. They can text, they can go to the website. They actually have an application you can download as well, which is really handy, and you can actually text somebody twenty four seven a day if
they need help. Right, And as you and I were talking, we were talking about Vanessa gian and you mentioned that there was a Netflix documentary about her. I went and watched it. It's pretty powerful. It's amazing. Yeah, and you got to an amazing family. Yeah, you got to meet her sister, and that was pretty inspirational for you. I did. Yeah, she's she's a wonderful human being. She what her family has gone through and what they have done to I guess heal through the process of losing
their sister. They really did. They created a whole new way of how the DoD investigates these crimes because now sexual harassment is punishable under the u CMJ, which is huge for us because it wasn't before. The result was always it is the uniform qude of Military justice. So it is essentially how all military members and the d D, how we are, what we are held to, the standard we're held to in the legal words. So sexualssault was
always covered from the u CMJ, but sexual harrassment was not. So this was a huge step I think in and making it safer for victims to come forward and being safe is what it's all about, and then also bringing awareness to it. So I'm wearing my Teal Tuesday shirt even though it's not Tuesday, it's Wednesday. But there's one more Teal Tuesday this month. And what's
Teal Tuesday? It is just so Teal is the color of our ribbon for special sault survivors, and so we celebrate April is Sexual Salt Awareness Month, and so every April we do a bunch of fundraisers to help prevent and spread awareness of these terrible things. But Teal is our color. So every teal every Tuesday, we were a teal to help Rims on our cause and what we're doing. And I think bringing this more out into the light is so so important. Jordan Bailey, thank you so much for taking time to talk
to us today. I am so happy to be here. Thank you for having me. Okay, she's like a second daughter to me. Okay, I guess so it would be firstdaughter because I don't have a daughter. But it's so fun to see her because I've known her since she was like this tall, and now she's all grown up and helping people and I love that. Thanks Jordan. Oh wait, are you wearing Dunham today?
