Yesterday I went to renew my 10 00:00:26,960 --> 00:00:30,120 Speaker 3: license and they have a new procedure. They asked you 11 00:00:30,200 --> 00:00:33,720 Speaker 3: if you want to change your voting party or or 12 00:00:33,760 --> 00:00:37,200 Speaker 3: you register to vote there. Question is with all those 13 00:00:37,200 --> 00:00:40,360 Speaker 3: illegal licenses at in California and all over, I was 14 00:00:40,360 --> 00:00:41,320 Speaker 3: wondering how they did it. 15 00:00:42,040 --> 00:00:44,520 Speaker 1: Yeah, I don't know. Did you have to show any 16 00:00:44,600 --> 00:00:45,839 Speaker 1: kinds of ID or anything? 17 00:00:45,960 --> 00:00:49,479 Speaker 3: Or I had my ID there? And then another time 18 00:00:49,880 --> 00:00:52,400 Speaker 3: when I was in the Bronx, I got a pamphlet 19 00:00:52,520 --> 00:00:55,920 Speaker 3: that was already checked off for the Democratic Party and 20 00:00:55,920 --> 00:00:57,360 Speaker 3: they asked me to sign it and mail it in. 21 00:00:57,520 --> 00:00:59,760 Speaker 3: But I'm a Republican. So they have other ways been 22 00:01:00,720 --> 00:01:02,840 Speaker 3: with the voting registrations there and everything else. 23 00:01:03,120 --> 00:01:05,280 Speaker 1: That's true. Now when you say go to the Motor 24 00:01:05,360 --> 00:01:07,440 Speaker 1: Vehicle department, that's like a nightmare.

I heard the clip 41 00:01:49,880 --> 00:01:54,040 Speaker 2: you played of Julia Mennon uh speaking about protecting the 42 00:01:54,120 --> 00:01:57,360 Speaker 2: houses of worship. Yeah, that's part of a larger interview 43 00:01:57,400 --> 00:01:59,800 Speaker 2: that she gave with John Kats and Matidi's on his 44 00:02:00,400 --> 00:02:06,040 Speaker 2: show yesterday, and he directly asked her about the real 45 00:02:06,160 --> 00:02:09,760 Speaker 2: estate and that the real estate community is really worried 46 00:02:10,160 --> 00:02:13,320 Speaker 2: and the reason why he mentioned it, and she totally 47 00:02:14,480 --> 00:02:19,240 Speaker 2: avoided the question. She's a co sponsor a lor with 48 00:02:19,440 --> 00:02:24,400 Speaker 2: counselwoman nurse who came up with this law that you 49 00:02:24,639 --> 00:02:29,480 Speaker 2: have to offer it to the nonprofit first and then secondly, 50 00:02:29,960 --> 00:02:31,320 Speaker 2: and I don't know how you're going to go to 51 00:02:31,400 --> 00:02:35,040 Speaker 2: contract with a private buyer. After you go to contract, 52 00:02:35,320 --> 00:02:38,560 Speaker 2: you have to then re offer it to them. And 53 00:02:38,720 --> 00:02:44,760 Speaker 2: she totally avoided the question because she is the co 54 00:02:44,919 --> 00:02:49,880 Speaker 2: sponsor of that law. And Michael Goodwin a couple of 55 00:02:49,880 --> 00:02:55,240 Speaker 2: weeks ago before she was inaugurated, Michael Goodwin talked about 56 00:02:55,320 --> 00:03:00,560 Speaker 2: that and he said he was hoping that Eric Adams 57 00:03:00,560 --> 00:03:03,919 Speaker 2: what she didn't do with a veto vito the law 58 00:03:04,000 --> 00:03:07,120 Speaker 2: because it wasn't veto proof they didn't have enough votes. 59 00:03:07,639 --> 00:03:11,120 Speaker 2: But he says, I doubt that because she's a co 60 00:03:11,320 --> 00:03:15,200 Speaker 2: sponsor of the law. So I heard her wiggling squeam. 61 00:03:15,960 --> 00:03:19,280 Speaker 2: You know, I wish you the best apecial, especially with 62 00:03:19,400 --> 00:03:24,520 Speaker 2: the houses of worship and the anti Semitic activity uh 63 00:03:24,720 --> 00:03:28,600 Speaker 2: going on in this city. But she avoided the question. 64 00:03:29,440 --> 00:03:33,000 Speaker 1: Listen, she's a slimy politician, but she's more of a 65 00:03:33,040 --> 00:03:34,760 Speaker 1: centrist than you usually get. 66 00:03:35,040 --> 00:03:38,480 Speaker 2: Oh no, definitely.
