1
00:00:00,520 --> 00:00:04,080
Speaker 1: Give woor a, Brie said on the iHeartRadio app to

2
00:00:04,120 --> 00:00:09,240
Speaker 1: hear Mark Simone and all the WR hosts in an instance, go.

3
00:00:09,400 --> 00:00:12,480
Speaker 2: Back to the Mark Simo show on WR.

4
00:00:13,280 --> 00:00:16,480
Speaker 1: Well, Bruce Blakeman, he should be the next governor of

5
00:00:16,480 --> 00:00:19,720
Speaker 1: New York. He's the Nassau County executive, best county executive

6
00:00:19,720 --> 00:00:23,040
Speaker 1: in America. That's a job that's just like being a governor,

7
00:00:23,079 --> 00:00:25,000
Speaker 1: and he's the best at it. And if you want

8
00:00:25,000 --> 00:00:29,040
Speaker 1: to help, you go to Blakemanfronewyork dot com. Blakeman from

9
00:00:29,080 --> 00:00:32,280
Speaker 1: New York dot Com. Bruce Blakeman, how you doing.

10
00:00:33,640 --> 00:00:34,760
Speaker 2: Doing really good? Mark?

11
00:00:35,440 --> 00:00:39,280
Speaker 1: Well, you're running against this crazy Kathy Hokeel who tells

12
00:00:39,280 --> 00:00:41,320
Speaker 1: everybody to leave New York. Now, she's all over the place,

13
00:00:41,400 --> 00:00:44,199
Speaker 1: Numbrady to come back. Is that her admitting that she

14
00:00:44,360 --> 00:00:44,760
Speaker 1: was wrong?

15
00:00:46,440 --> 00:00:49,640
Speaker 2: You know, Mark, When I saw the video of her

16
00:00:50,520 --> 00:00:55,639
Speaker 2: asking people to please come back to New York from Florida,

17
00:00:56,280 --> 00:00:58,960
Speaker 2: all I could think about was, this can't be true.

18
00:00:59,600 --> 00:01:02,280
Speaker 2: It's got to be an AI video. It's got to

19
00:01:02,320 --> 00:01:05,679
Speaker 2: be a Saturday Night Live skit. You can't make this up.

20
00:01:05,800 --> 00:01:10,560
Speaker 2: We are the most overtaxed, overregulated state in the United States.

21
00:01:10,959 --> 00:01:13,959
Speaker 2: We have one of the highest energy bills in the

22
00:01:14,080 --> 00:01:17,720
Speaker 2: United States. Just look at your electric bill. Your electric

23
00:01:17,800 --> 00:01:22,319
Speaker 2: bill is only thirty percent going for energy. The rest

24
00:01:22,360 --> 00:01:27,800
Speaker 2: of the bill is excessive delivery charges, taxes, and the

25
00:01:27,880 --> 00:01:33,080
Speaker 2: green energy scam mandates that she puts on your electric bills.

26
00:01:33,480 --> 00:01:36,319
Speaker 2: When I become governor, I'll cut your electric bills in half.

27
00:01:36,400 --> 00:01:39,000
Speaker 2: We're going to cut out the green energy scam. We're

28
00:01:39,000 --> 00:01:41,039
Speaker 2: going to bring down the delivery charges, and we're going

29
00:01:41,120 --> 00:01:44,000
Speaker 2: to bring down the taxes. That's number one. Number two

30
00:01:44,120 --> 00:01:46,920
Speaker 2: is the way to get people back here is to

31
00:01:47,040 --> 00:01:51,800
Speaker 2: lower taxes, not to raise taxes. Her and her buddy

32
00:01:52,080 --> 00:01:56,720
Speaker 2: Zoon Mundami, they want to raise property taxes by nine

33
00:01:56,720 --> 00:01:59,600
Speaker 2: and a half percent in New York City. That means

34
00:01:59,680 --> 00:02:01,840
Speaker 2: that if you a home, own a home in Brooklyn

35
00:02:01,960 --> 00:02:04,440
Speaker 2: or Queens or any of the other five boroughs, your

36
00:02:04,440 --> 00:02:07,600
Speaker 2: taxes are going to go up significantly. She also wants

37
00:02:07,640 --> 00:02:10,919
Speaker 2: to institute a death tax. Her and Zoon Mndamie want

38
00:02:10,919 --> 00:02:13,920
Speaker 2: to put a death tax. That you work hard your

39
00:02:13,960 --> 00:02:17,040
Speaker 2: whole life, you build up a little mess egg. You

40
00:02:17,160 --> 00:02:19,920
Speaker 2: have a home that's probably worth you know, six seven

41
00:02:20,000 --> 00:02:24,000
Speaker 2: hundred and eight hundred thousand dollars, and your estate's nine

42
00:02:24,080 --> 00:02:27,440
Speaker 2: hundred thousand dollars. Let's say she wants to take half

43
00:02:27,480 --> 00:02:30,120
Speaker 2: of that. She wants to take half of it. Zoa

44
00:02:30,120 --> 00:02:33,440
Speaker 2: on Mundami wants to take half of it. They're working together.

45
00:02:33,960 --> 00:02:37,959
Speaker 2: They have a secret plan that after the election they

46
00:02:38,000 --> 00:02:42,320
Speaker 2: will raise taxes, just like Kathy Hokeel did with congestion pricing.

47
00:02:42,760 --> 00:02:44,480
Speaker 2: She said she was going to put it on pause.

48
00:02:45,000 --> 00:02:48,400
Speaker 2: Right after the election. We got congestion pricing. And by

49
00:02:48,440 --> 00:02:51,280
Speaker 2: the way, congestion pricing is not just going to be

50
00:02:51,320 --> 00:02:54,320
Speaker 2: in Lower Manhattan. She'll bring it to Queens Boulevard, She'll

51
00:02:54,320 --> 00:02:57,679
Speaker 2: bring it to Flatbush Boulevard, She'll bring it to all

52
00:02:57,720 --> 00:03:01,080
Speaker 2: of the major thoroughfares throughout the state. Because she needs

53
00:03:01,120 --> 00:03:04,320
Speaker 2: to raise money for her green energy scam, for her

54
00:03:04,400 --> 00:03:08,680
Speaker 2: medicaid scams, and for her not for profits that produce

55
00:03:09,200 --> 00:03:11,400
Speaker 2: nothing for the people of New York, but they pay

56
00:03:11,800 --> 00:03:14,720
Speaker 2: billions of dollars to her friends who give her big

57
00:03:14,760 --> 00:03:16,040
Speaker 2: campaign contributions.

58
00:03:16,160 --> 00:03:19,440
Speaker 1: Yeah, and our budget is double the budget of Florida,

59
00:03:19,480 --> 00:03:21,960
Speaker 1: even though that's a bigger state with more people. What

60
00:03:22,160 --> 00:03:23,720
Speaker 1: can be done to cut that budget down?

61
00:03:25,120 --> 00:03:27,800
Speaker 2: Well, first of all, we have to cut out, as

62
00:03:27,840 --> 00:03:31,960
Speaker 2: I said, the funding for all of these not for

63
00:03:32,040 --> 00:03:36,560
Speaker 2: profits like they have in Minnesota. These are just not

64
00:03:36,600 --> 00:03:39,200
Speaker 2: for profits that are set up not to help people,

65
00:03:39,760 --> 00:03:43,120
Speaker 2: but to give people who contribute to Kathy Hockel a

66
00:03:43,240 --> 00:03:48,000
Speaker 2: job a big salary. They produce nothing. And I will

67
00:03:48,040 --> 00:03:52,080
Speaker 2: have an immediate review of every program in the state

68
00:03:52,120 --> 00:03:55,400
Speaker 2: of New York. We will look not to cut services.

69
00:03:55,680 --> 00:03:58,600
Speaker 2: We want to deliver better services than Kathy Hockel, because

70
00:03:58,600 --> 00:04:02,320
Speaker 2: her services are terrible. I want to increase the quality

71
00:04:02,320 --> 00:04:04,960
Speaker 2: of the services, but get them to people who really

72
00:04:05,000 --> 00:04:08,480
Speaker 2: need them and only have programs that work, not fund

73
00:04:08,520 --> 00:04:11,560
Speaker 2: all these experimental programs that Kathy Hochel has.

74
00:04:11,680 --> 00:04:14,040
Speaker 1: Yeah, which I would Bruce Blakeman, who we hope is

75
00:04:14,120 --> 00:04:17,279
Speaker 1: the next governor in New York. If you want to help, donate, volunteer,

76
00:04:17,320 --> 00:04:21,600
Speaker 1: go to Blakeman for New York dot com Blakemanfronewyork dot com.

77
00:04:21,680 --> 00:04:24,320
Speaker 1: Now people will say, well, you're behind in the polls,

78
00:04:24,480 --> 00:04:26,360
Speaker 1: but you're always behind in the polls when you win.

79
00:04:26,560 --> 00:04:28,480
Speaker 1: Isn't that Wasn't that the case in Nassau County.

80
00:04:30,040 --> 00:04:34,839
Speaker 2: Yeah, Listen, I ran for reelection in a county with

81
00:04:34,920 --> 00:04:39,080
Speaker 2: one hundred and ten thousand more Democrats than Republicans and

82
00:04:39,160 --> 00:04:43,000
Speaker 2: I won in a landslide. Every time I run, the

83
00:04:43,080 --> 00:04:48,000
Speaker 2: polls have me behind, They have me in a position

84
00:04:48,160 --> 00:04:54,000
Speaker 2: that is totally not true. These polls are polls from

85
00:04:54,600 --> 00:05:00,920
Speaker 2: very far left universities that skew the polls towards Democrats

86
00:05:01,360 --> 00:05:04,159
Speaker 2: so that they frustrate our fundraising, so they bring down

87
00:05:04,200 --> 00:05:08,720
Speaker 2: our morale. Look, I know how to win in democratic

88
00:05:08,839 --> 00:05:13,200
Speaker 2: territories because I bring the same thing to every neighborhood

89
00:05:13,279 --> 00:05:19,080
Speaker 2: and every community. That means safe and secure communities, by

90
00:05:19,200 --> 00:05:23,120
Speaker 2: increasing the number of police, not defunding the police, by

91
00:05:23,279 --> 00:05:26,479
Speaker 2: keeping taxes well, I haven't raised taxes a penny in

92
00:05:26,560 --> 00:05:29,520
Speaker 2: four years. Plus. I took one hundred and fifty million

93
00:05:29,560 --> 00:05:32,800
Speaker 2: dollar tax increase that was planned by my predecessor, and

94
00:05:32,839 --> 00:05:36,719
Speaker 2: I canceled it my first week in office. So the

95
00:05:36,800 --> 00:05:39,360
Speaker 2: fact is that you've got to make it more affordable

96
00:05:39,839 --> 00:05:44,440
Speaker 2: by lowering taxes, lowering electric bills, and then you'll get

97
00:05:44,480 --> 00:05:46,599
Speaker 2: people back to New York. And you also have to

98
00:05:46,680 --> 00:05:51,960
Speaker 2: create jobs, economic development, which creates prosperity, which means more

99
00:05:52,040 --> 00:05:54,960
Speaker 2: money goes in your pocket. If there's money more in

100
00:05:55,040 --> 00:05:58,000
Speaker 2: your pocket, you can make important choices on how you

101
00:05:58,040 --> 00:06:01,200
Speaker 2: want to spend the money, and not govern people are

102
00:06:01,520 --> 00:06:04,279
Speaker 2: miserable in New York. They need a governor that's going

103
00:06:04,360 --> 00:06:07,480
Speaker 2: to put New Yorkers first, not spend billions of dollars

104
00:06:07,720 --> 00:06:12,120
Speaker 2: on illegal migrants. That's our taxpayer dollars. The Kaffee Hockel

105
00:06:12,279 --> 00:06:15,280
Speaker 2: is spending on people who've been here for fifteen minutes.

106
00:06:15,600 --> 00:06:19,360
Speaker 2: When we could cut taxes, when we could improve our infrastructure,

107
00:06:19,680 --> 00:06:23,599
Speaker 2: spend money on education, improve our hospitals, and she spent

108
00:06:23,720 --> 00:06:27,040
Speaker 2: it on people who just crossed the border, giving them

109
00:06:27,200 --> 00:06:30,719
Speaker 2: free housing, free food, free transportations, and a free cell phone.

110
00:06:31,200 --> 00:06:33,600
Speaker 2: That stops. I will be a governor that puts New

111
00:06:33,640 --> 00:06:36,520
Speaker 2: Yorkers first. My job is to make for a more

112
00:06:36,560 --> 00:06:40,279
Speaker 2: prosperous state, a safer state, and to make New Yorkers

113
00:06:40,279 --> 00:06:40,880
Speaker 2: happy again.

114
00:06:41,640 --> 00:06:44,440
Speaker 1: And now, Bruce Blakeman, what about money. She's got the

115
00:06:45,640 --> 00:06:47,479
Speaker 1: thirty two million or something in the bank.

116
00:06:49,120 --> 00:06:53,080
Speaker 2: Yeah, well, we're raising money at a very very large clip.

117
00:06:53,480 --> 00:06:57,800
Speaker 2: We are doing very very well. Remember she's been at

118
00:06:57,800 --> 00:07:01,159
Speaker 2: this for four years. She's an incumbent. We expect to

119
00:07:01,200 --> 00:07:06,320
Speaker 2: get we expect to get outspent. But if you have

120
00:07:06,480 --> 00:07:12,280
Speaker 2: the issues on your side, which we do, talking about overtaxation, overregulation,

121
00:07:13,040 --> 00:07:16,480
Speaker 2: cashless fail the Hall deck, raise the age, things that

122
00:07:16,520 --> 00:07:19,960
Speaker 2: make us less prosperous and less safe. I'm running against

123
00:07:20,000 --> 00:07:23,800
Speaker 2: her on those issues, and that means more than anything,

124
00:07:23,840 --> 00:07:27,440
Speaker 2: That means more than money. So we're getting our message out.

125
00:07:27,640 --> 00:07:32,440
Speaker 2: People are starting to collaborate with us. They're raising money,

126
00:07:32,520 --> 00:07:36,800
Speaker 2: they're out there volunteering, they're using their cell phones to

127
00:07:36,920 --> 00:07:41,600
Speaker 2: text people, to email people social media. We're getting millions

128
00:07:41,600 --> 00:07:45,640
Speaker 2: of hits on social media. I expect that not only

129
00:07:45,720 --> 00:07:48,280
Speaker 2: will we be victorious, but I think that we will

130
00:07:48,320 --> 00:07:50,440
Speaker 2: decisively win, and then I will be the governor on

131
00:07:50,520 --> 00:07:51,360
Speaker 2: January first.

132
00:07:51,440 --> 00:07:53,680
Speaker 1: Well, we all hope so. And now you're a much

133
00:07:53,680 --> 00:07:56,280
Speaker 1: better speaker. You can out debate her any day. What

134
00:07:56,360 --> 00:07:58,640
Speaker 1: about Has she agreed to a debate of any kind?

135
00:08:00,240 --> 00:08:04,880
Speaker 2: I challenged her to a debate last month. She said

136
00:08:04,920 --> 00:08:08,600
Speaker 2: that I didn't answer a question from a reporter because

137
00:08:08,680 --> 00:08:12,840
Speaker 2: I was chicken. Actually, the reporter asked the same question

138
00:08:13,040 --> 00:08:18,160
Speaker 2: four times but didn't like my answer. So she said, oh,

139
00:08:18,240 --> 00:08:20,480
Speaker 2: you know, Blakeman, he won't even answer the question. I said, listen,

140
00:08:20,480 --> 00:08:24,000
Speaker 2: I'll tell you what. I'll debate you every week from

141
00:08:24,080 --> 00:08:28,120
Speaker 2: now to election day. Let's see who's chicken. And of

142
00:08:28,200 --> 00:08:30,400
Speaker 2: course she never got back to me. She's not going

143
00:08:30,480 --> 00:08:34,080
Speaker 2: to debate me unless she absolutely has to because she's

144
00:08:34,160 --> 00:08:38,960
Speaker 2: afraid of her record being exposed by me. I'm going

145
00:08:39,040 --> 00:08:41,720
Speaker 2: to compare my record where I have the safest county

146
00:08:41,720 --> 00:08:44,040
Speaker 2: in America according to US and US and World Report,

147
00:08:44,480 --> 00:08:47,160
Speaker 2: where I haven't raised taxes, where we have economic development,

148
00:08:47,200 --> 00:08:50,520
Speaker 2: people are doing very very well in my county, compared

149
00:08:50,520 --> 00:08:52,559
Speaker 2: to her record where she has to go and beg

150
00:08:52,600 --> 00:08:55,400
Speaker 2: people in Florida to come back to New York because

151
00:08:55,920 --> 00:08:59,440
Speaker 2: she's made it unsafe, She's made it unaffordable. She's the

152
00:08:59,480 --> 00:09:02,160
Speaker 2: one that has made New York unaffordable. I will be

153
00:09:02,240 --> 00:09:04,240
Speaker 2: the governor that makes it affordable again.

154
00:09:04,640 --> 00:09:07,920
Speaker 1: Let's hope everybody do what you can to help. Bruce Blakeman.

155
00:09:08,120 --> 00:09:10,480
