KMZQ 670AM, Kevin Wall Radio 6/15/2026 – Hour 2 Part 1

The U.S. and Iran have reached a tentative deal to reopen the Strait of Hormuz, sparking global market rallies and prompting high-stakes political fallout in the Middle East and Washington. While President Trump celebrates a new era of diplomacy, Israel’s Defense Minister Israel Katz defiantly declares that his country will not withdraw from lands seized in Lebanon, Syria, and Gaza—directly challenging the terms of the agreement. Meanwhile, on the domestic front, Kevin Wall’s radio show dives into California’s deeply dysfunctional election process, where ballots are counted for 37 days due to a system designed to prioritize 'social justice' over speed, leading to widespread distrust. Tom Del Beccaro, a sharp political analyst, exposes systemic failures: over 877,000 ballots were sent to voters who should’ve been removed from the rolls, signature verification drags on, and the state’s refusal to allocate resources for faster processing reveals a deliberate political strategy. The gubernatorial race between Steve Hilton and Xavier Becerra is portrayed as a disaster, with Becerra dismissed as a bland, legally troubled figure, while the mayoral race in L.A. is under scrutiny for irregular vote surges. The episode escalates into a blistering critique of California’s leadership, with allegations of corruption involving Gavin Newsom and his wife, including a $10 million home purchase and a pay-for-play scheme funneling donor money through nonprofits.
