It 8 00:00:28,600 --> 00:00:32,280 Speaker 1: is the end of the first week of twenty twenty six. 9 00:00:32,360 --> 00:00:35,120 Speaker 1: We made it through all of this. I see dead 10 00:00:35,200 --> 00:00:37,880 Speaker 1: Christmas trees all over the sidewalks in New York. People 11 00:00:38,080 --> 00:00:40,200 Speaker 1: just toss them out there in the garbage and they're 12 00:00:40,600 --> 00:00:44,760 Speaker 1: lying around all over the place there. So it's going 13 00:00:44,840 --> 00:00:48,160 Speaker 1: to be warm today, but the rain starts later. It's 14 00:00:48,159 --> 00:00:52,480 Speaker 1: going to be a very rainy weekend. But whatever snow 15 00:00:52,479 --> 00:00:54,640 Speaker 1: there's left out there somewhere is going to get washed 16 00:00:54,680 --> 00:01:00,000 Speaker 1: away this weekend. So President Trump, let's go over everything 17 00:01:00,040 --> 00:01:05,560 Speaker 1: from this. Minneapolis, they've started to identify the ice officer 18 00:01:05,560 --> 00:01:08,920 Speaker 1: who fired the shots, his picture, his face, his name 19 00:01:08,959 --> 00:01:13,680 Speaker 1: all over the internet. Now you know how the poor 20 00:01:13,720 --> 00:01:15,760 Speaker 1: woman who got killed, they would say, well, she was 21 00:01:15,800 --> 00:01:19,040 Speaker 1: a mother of a six year old. She was a poet, 22 00:01:19,080 --> 00:01:23,560 Speaker 1: she was a wonderful woman. Was also driving a car 23 00:01:23,680 --> 00:01:25,959 Speaker 1: right into a bunch of law enforcement officers, trying to 24 00:01:26,040 --> 00:01:29,399 Speaker 1: terrorize them all day. It's not just at that moment, 25 00:01:29,400 --> 00:01:32,920 Speaker 1: but she'd been there apparently all day, trying to block them, 26 00:01:32,959 --> 00:01:36,640 Speaker 1: trying to interrupt them, trying to troll them, going after them. 27 00:01:37,319 --> 00:01:39,920 Speaker 1: I could see protesting if you're really upset about something. 28 00:01:39,959 --> 00:01:42,600 Speaker 1: I could see getting a sign and standing there waving 29 00:01:42,600 --> 00:01:45,520 Speaker 1: your sign and yelling something. But could you imagine ever 30 00:01:45,760 --> 00:01:51,400 Speaker 1: getting into a big suv and terrorizing the agents. Could 31 00:01:51,480 --> 00:01:53,640 Speaker 1: you imagine would you ever have the nerve to do that? 32 00:01:53,720 --> 00:01:56,160 Speaker 1: And when I say terrorizing, I mean she's driving into them, 33 00:01:56,200 --> 00:01:58,720 Speaker 1: around them. And if you watch, they don't show you 34 00:01:58,800 --> 00:02:02,920 Speaker 1: this really when they show these videos right before the incident, 35 00:02:04,160 --> 00:02:07,400 Speaker 1: it all started. When the ICE agents are in a 36 00:02:07,440 --> 00:02:10,919 Speaker 1: caravan of cars SUVs, they're coming down the street. Right 37 00:02:10,960 --> 00:02:14,560 Speaker 1: before all this, she takes her SUV, gets in front 38 00:02:14,560 --> 00:02:17,280 Speaker 1: of them and turns the car sideways so that it's 39 00:02:17,320 --> 00:02:21,960 Speaker 1: blocking the whole street. Now, usually when you see that happen, 40 00:02:22,120 --> 00:02:24,440 Speaker 1: there's a couple of Blue Bloods episodes where you see 41 00:02:24,440 --> 00:02:27,200 Speaker 1: that where they're trying to stop Danny Reagan from taking 42 00:02:27,200 --> 00:02:31,639 Speaker 1: that witness into court. One suv turns sideways blocks the road. 43 00:02:31,680 --> 00:02:34,400 Speaker 1: Another gets behind the caravan blocks them in, so they're 44 00:02:34,440 --> 00:02:36,400 Speaker 1: boxed in, and now they start shooting at them. So 45 00:02:36,800 --> 00:02:39,760 Speaker 1: if you're these Ice agents and you see this car 46 00:02:40,440 --> 00:02:44,080 Speaker 1: ahead of you turn and just sideways block the whole 47 00:02:44,080 --> 00:02:47,240 Speaker 1: street so you can't move, your first thought is you're 48 00:02:47,280 --> 00:02:49,120 Speaker 1: going to get ambushed. Here there's going to be another 49 00:02:49,120 --> 00:02:52,560 Speaker 1: car blocking you from behind. I mean, if I were them, 50 00:02:52,560 --> 00:02:54,320 Speaker 1: I would have just rammed right through her and knocked 51 00:02:54,320 --> 00:02:57,480 Speaker 1: her car of the way, but they instead stopped. They 52 00:02:57,480 --> 00:02:58,880 Speaker 1: got out of the car and try to approach her 53 00:02:58,880 --> 00:03:01,720 Speaker 1: to see what it was all about. And that's where 54 00:03:01,720 --> 00:03:04,000 Speaker 1: all this started. Now you got all these people yelling 55 00:03:04,080 --> 00:03:07,040 Speaker 1: and screaming. You got Mamdanni and of course it can 56 00:03:07,080 --> 00:03:09,520 Speaker 1: always count on him for the left wing kook response. 57 00:03:10,120 --> 00:03:13,760 Speaker 1: And he's yelling murder, murder, murder. And you got the 58 00:03:13,800 --> 00:03:16,840 Speaker 1: Minnesota mayor, who's not the same thing their own Mamdani 59 00:03:17,240 --> 00:03:20,320 Speaker 1: yelling murder. You got Tim Waltz, the governor. He wants 60 00:03:20,400 --> 00:03:22,520 Speaker 1: to try this cop there. And now there's a couple 61 00:03:22,560 --> 00:03:25,400 Speaker 1: of things. If you just go over the facts. Fact 62 00:03:25,480 --> 00:03:29,040 Speaker 1: number one, this cop will never ever ever get convicted 63 00:03:29,040 --> 00:03:32,120 Speaker 1: of anything. He's totally legally covered, justified. We can go 64 00:03:32,160 --> 00:03:36,520 Speaker 1: over the reasons why in a moment, absolutely total legal shooting. 65 00:03:37,360 --> 00:03:39,720 Speaker 1: Now here's the other thing. If you talk off the 66 00:03:39,840 --> 00:03:45,960 Speaker 1: record to every great law enforcement person, police commissioners, all 67 00:03:46,000 --> 00:03:49,560 Speaker 1: sorts of top top police people, they'll tell you when 68 00:03:49,600 --> 00:03:54,440 Speaker 1: they've studied this, it's legally justified. It was legal in firing. 69 00:03:54,560 --> 00:03:56,760 Speaker 1: But they'll also tell you off the record, he shouldn't 70 00:03:56,800 --> 00:04:00,400 Speaker 1: have fired. He didn't have to fire. He did hit 71 00:04:00,480 --> 00:04:02,320 Speaker 1: him with the car. He was in front of it. 72 00:04:02,400 --> 00:04:06,280 Speaker 1: She was coming at him. She then tried to turn away, 73 00:04:06,440 --> 00:04:09,360 Speaker 1: so you can legally fire at her. But they all 74 00:04:09,400 --> 00:04:14,160 Speaker 1: said the same thing. If you were a much smarter cop, 75 00:04:14,200 --> 00:04:16,360 Speaker 1: you would have gotten out of the way. You didn't 76 00:04:16,400 --> 00:04:19,920 Speaker 1: have to fire, So you don't shoot and kill her. 77 00:04:19,960 --> 00:04:23,480 Speaker 1: You just either get the local police to capture her later, 78 00:04:23,680 --> 00:04:26,240 Speaker 1: or you chase her and capture He didn't need to 79 00:04:26,279 --> 00:04:30,000 Speaker 1: fire the shots. Now, he's legally covered because she did 80 00:04:30,080 --> 00:04:31,599 Speaker 1: hit him with the car. You can see that in 81 00:04:31,600 --> 00:04:35,360 Speaker 1: the videos from the front. And also if you're watching 82 00:04:35,360 --> 00:04:37,200 Speaker 1: Stephen Colbert, you wouldn't know any of this last night. 83 00:04:37,360 --> 00:04:39,960 Speaker 1: He did this whole thing about her. He just shot 84 00:04:39,960 --> 00:04:41,400 Speaker 1: her from the side of the car. He was on 85 00:04:41,440 --> 00:04:43,400 Speaker 1: the side of the car shooting at her. Now, actually 86 00:04:43,839 --> 00:04:45,680 Speaker 1: he was in front of the car for the first shot. 87 00:04:45,800 --> 00:04:47,960 Speaker 1: Because the first shot, and this is the key to 88 00:04:48,000 --> 00:04:50,360 Speaker 1: everything if it ever were to go into a courtroom, 89 00:04:50,760 --> 00:04:55,520 Speaker 1: the first shot goes through the front windshield. And that's 90 00:04:55,520 --> 00:04:57,920 Speaker 1: impossible to do if you're on the side of the car. 91 00:04:58,480 --> 00:05:01,080 Speaker 1: If the first shot goes right through the front windshield. 92 00:05:01,200 --> 00:05:02,640 Speaker 1: And that's because he was in front of the car. 93 00:05:02,680 --> 00:05:04,400 Speaker 1: If you look at the other videos, which they'd never 94 00:05:04,400 --> 00:05:06,880 Speaker 1: show you, from the front the car hit some reason, 95 00:05:06,880 --> 00:05:08,839 Speaker 1: he's on the side. The car hit him and knocked 96 00:05:08,880 --> 00:05:13,960 Speaker 1: him to the side. But again, he's legally justified. He's 97 00:05:14,040 --> 00:05:17,280 Speaker 1: legal in the shooting. But off the record, every law 98 00:05:17,320 --> 00:05:19,560 Speaker 1: enforcement guesses, you didn't have to fire those shots. You 99 00:05:19,600 --> 00:05:23,200 Speaker 1: could have just let it go. But he will get 100 00:05:23,240 --> 00:05:28,920 Speaker 1: a federal investigation. They will not convict him. Even the 101 00:05:28,960 --> 00:05:33,160 Speaker 1: biggest Trump hating prosecutors, the Andy McCarthy types, will tell 102 00:05:33,160 --> 00:05:35,880 Speaker 1: you it's a legally justified shooting. They can't convict him 103 00:05:35,920 --> 00:05:39,159 Speaker 1: of anything, but fed's will go after him. Now, the 104 00:05:39,240 --> 00:05:43,040 Speaker 1: Minnesota officials, the crazy left wing mayor and Waltz. They 105 00:05:43,040 --> 00:05:45,320 Speaker 1: want to try him, they want to put him on trial, 106 00:05:45,360 --> 00:05:47,680 Speaker 1: they want to go after him. It's good for them politically, 107 00:05:48,600 --> 00:05:51,840 Speaker 1: it's a good issue for them to latch onto. That's 108 00:05:51,880 --> 00:05:54,919 Speaker 1: the other problem with this. It's a terrible incident, tragic, awful, 109 00:05:55,640 --> 00:05:58,919 Speaker 1: even though it's legal. It's probably unnecessary, but it's legal. 110 00:06:00,160 --> 00:06:02,320 Speaker 1: But if you're a Democrat and you hate Trump and 111 00:06:02,360 --> 00:06:05,279 Speaker 1: your whole life is trying to get Trump, this is perfect. 112 00:06:05,360 --> 00:06:08,560 Speaker 1: You can use this for the next year, and you 113 00:06:08,680 --> 00:06:12,200 Speaker 1: got midterm elections coming up. So if you're a Democrat, 114 00:06:12,360 --> 00:06:15,760 Speaker 1: this is great. This footage the cops shooting the woman. 115 00:06:16,480 --> 00:06:19,839 Speaker 1: If you read these articles in the left wing news media, 116 00:06:19,920 --> 00:06:22,000 Speaker 1: she was a poet, she was a mother, she was 117 00:06:22,160 --> 00:06:25,560 Speaker 1: how could they shoot her? But again, if you're a 118 00:06:25,600 --> 00:06:28,080 Speaker 1: poet and a mother, you generally wouldn't be the type 119 00:06:28,080 --> 00:06:30,800 Speaker 1: would you to be taking your suv and trying to 120 00:06:30,880 --> 00:06:35,160 Speaker 1: run over cops or try to bust up a police operation. 121 00:06:35,279 --> 00:06:39,760 Speaker 1: That's highly unusual behavior. But these Democrats, with the rhetoric, 122 00:06:39,839 --> 00:06:44,760 Speaker 1: these Colberts and Stephanopoulos's and all the media and all 123 00:06:44,800 --> 00:06:48,360 Speaker 1: the Democrats and all they've riled up these people, They've 124 00:06:48,360 --> 00:06:53,160 Speaker 1: inflamed them. They've weaponized these white liberal women with their 125 00:06:53,160 --> 00:06:57,000 Speaker 1: liberal arts degrees to go crazy. But Tim Waltz, who's 126 00:06:58,000 --> 00:07:01,480 Speaker 1: had withdraw from the guvern his race in total disgrace, 127 00:07:01,760 --> 00:07:03,720 Speaker 1: this might be a turning point for him. Maybe you 128 00:07:03,720 --> 00:07:06,280 Speaker 1: can save himself. That's why he wants to do the investigation. 129 00:07:06,560 --> 00:07:10,040 Speaker 2: Yesterday, the Minnesota Bureau of Criminal Apprehension the BCA, spent 130 00:07:10,040 --> 00:07:13,640 Speaker 2: the day yesterday attempting to get that accountability. We have 131 00:07:13,760 --> 00:07:16,120 Speaker 2: learned that the Trump administration has now denied the state 132 00:07:16,200 --> 00:07:19,840 Speaker 2: that ability to participate in the investigation. And I always 133 00:07:19,840 --> 00:07:21,760 Speaker 2: want to make this as clear as possible to everyone. 134 00:07:22,120 --> 00:07:25,840 Speaker 2: Minnesota must be part of this investigation. 135 00:07:26,800 --> 00:07:27,200 Speaker 3: Right now. 136 00:07:27,720 --> 00:07:29,840 Speaker 1: Gotta give this guy credit for the first ten seconds. 137 00:07:29,840 --> 00:07:30,800 Speaker 1: Boy does he sound. 138 00:07:30,640 --> 00:07:34,720 Speaker 2: Official yesterday the Minnesota Bureau of Criminal Apprehension, the bc ooh, 139 00:07:34,800 --> 00:07:35,320 Speaker 2: the bc. 140 00:07:35,240 --> 00:07:39,440 Speaker 1: Other, Minnesota Bureau of Criminal and Apprehension. It sounds impressive. 141 00:07:39,440 --> 00:07:41,320 Speaker 1: Then he said, well, wait a minute, you just had 142 00:07:41,360 --> 00:07:44,240 Speaker 1: eighteen billions stolen right under your nose. You didn't even 143 00:07:44,280 --> 00:07:46,200 Speaker 1: know it, and now that you know it's stolen, you 144 00:07:46,200 --> 00:07:47,520 Speaker 1: haven't done a damn thing about it. 145 00:07:47,560 --> 00:07:50,280 Speaker 2: A spent the day yesterday attempting to get that accountability. 146 00:07:50,360 --> 00:07:56,040 Speaker 1: Accountability, that's that's his middle name, accountability. Again. Eighteen billions stolen. 147 00:07:56,080 --> 00:07:58,920 Speaker 1: He didn't notice, he didn't see, he didn't look. Now 148 00:07:58,920 --> 00:08:01,040 Speaker 1: that they know it was stolen, and you'll never hear 149 00:08:01,080 --> 00:08:03,560 Speaker 1: a word about it from him. He'll never mention. It 150 00:08:03,600 --> 00:08:07,000 Speaker 1: looks the other way. So it's it's just silly, it's 151 00:08:07,040 --> 00:08:12,080 Speaker 1: just ridiculous. So we'll see what happens. There will be 152 00:08:12,120 --> 00:08:14,760 Speaker 1: a federal investigation. Now you got the Portland incident on 153 00:08:14,840 --> 00:08:17,400 Speaker 1: top of that, and again it's the same thing. You know, 154 00:08:18,160 --> 00:08:22,239 Speaker 1: people weaponizing cars, trying to drive into you don't wherever 155 00:08:22,280 --> 00:08:24,880 Speaker 1: there's a shooting, a gun incident, they always call for 156 00:08:25,320 --> 00:08:29,080 Speaker 1: banning guns. You've had people use cars now as weapons. 157 00:08:29,120 --> 00:08:33,160 Speaker 1: We'll see what happens. Car attacks, now here's here's one 158 00:08:33,200 --> 00:08:37,160 Speaker 1: reason the ICE agents are really really on edge over 159 00:08:37,200 --> 00:08:42,960 Speaker 1: this attacks with people using cars to run down ICE agents. 160 00:08:43,520 --> 00:08:46,720 Speaker 1: Car attacks on ICE agents over the last year are up. 161 00:08:47,480 --> 00:08:51,640 Speaker 1: They have spiked up thirty two hundred percent in one year. 162 00:08:52,200 --> 00:08:56,400 Speaker 1: Thirty two hundred percent in one year. There's a massive 163 00:08:56,480 --> 00:08:59,560 Speaker 1: number of incidents. The one reason this cop was so 164 00:08:59,679 --> 00:09:04,760 Speaker 1: quick to fire was months ago he was in another 165 00:09:04,800 --> 00:09:06,880 Speaker 1: incident where a car tried to run him down and 166 00:09:06,920 --> 00:09:09,600 Speaker 1: the car he got caught with his arm in the car, 167 00:09:10,360 --> 00:09:13,959 Speaker 1: and the car dragged him for hundreds and hundreds of feet, 168 00:09:13,960 --> 00:09:17,320 Speaker 1: almost tore his arm off. In fact, he was seriously injured. 169 00:09:17,320 --> 00:09:20,600 Speaker 1: He had something like forty five stitches and his arm. 170 00:09:20,600 --> 00:09:22,840 Speaker 1: He still hasn't gotten full use of his arm. So, 171 00:09:23,200 --> 00:09:26,680 Speaker 1: you know, the victim who was shot, you'll hear about 172 00:09:26,679 --> 00:09:29,600 Speaker 1: what a wonderful she was, a mother, she was this Well, 173 00:09:29,640 --> 00:09:31,560 Speaker 1: you could do the same thing with the cop. Everybody 174 00:09:31,600 --> 00:09:36,959 Speaker 1: describes him as a wonderful man, a really kind, wonderful neighbor, 175 00:09:36,960 --> 00:09:38,960 Speaker 1: a guy who went to church all the time. And 176 00:09:39,000 --> 00:09:41,600 Speaker 1: he's married to an immigrant. You know, he's not an 177 00:09:41,640 --> 00:09:44,840 Speaker 1: anti immigrant guy. He's been on the Ice Force for 178 00:09:44,920 --> 00:09:48,600 Speaker 1: twelve years. He was, for that, a war veteran, So 179 00:09:48,880 --> 00:09:54,080 Speaker 1: I mean, a model citizen. But this will continue, You know, 180 00:09:55,160 --> 00:09:58,680 Speaker 1: it doesn't matter what the real deal is. Democrats are 181 00:09:58,760 --> 00:10:01,280 Speaker 1: running for midterm a linetions. They need to use this. 182 00:10:01,320 --> 00:10:04,680 Speaker 1: They want to destroy Trump should they take office. They 183 00:10:04,720 --> 00:10:06,920 Speaker 1: want to impeach them. This would be perfect. Are they 184 00:10:06,920 --> 00:10:10,040 Speaker 1: going to play this up like crazy? You're gonna hear 185 00:10:10,200 --> 00:10:12,199 Speaker 1: all about this. You're going to see more rioting now. 186 00:10:12,440 --> 00:10:14,280 Speaker 1: We hope this doesn't turn out to remember the last 187 00:10:14,320 --> 00:10:16,920 Speaker 1: time we had the riots start, it went on for 188 00:10:16,960 --> 00:10:20,360 Speaker 1: an entire summer, all through the election year, and this 189 00:10:20,440 --> 00:10:23,560 Speaker 1: will be an election year, so you know, you've got 190 00:10:23,600 --> 00:10:25,680 Speaker 1: a couple other things going on. The Affordable Care Act 191 00:10:25,840 --> 00:10:28,840 Speaker 1: is it turned out this Obamacare, they call it the 192 00:10:28,840 --> 00:10:31,360 Speaker 1: Affordable Care Act, but it's not affordable. It turned out 193 00:10:31,400 --> 00:10:34,520 Speaker 1: to be a total disaster. Drove the cost of healthcare 194 00:10:34,640 --> 00:10:38,800 Speaker 1: up like crazy. So to fix that, the government has 195 00:10:38,840 --> 00:10:41,840 Speaker 1: to give you subsidies. It's so unaffordable you have to 196 00:10:41,840 --> 00:10:45,480 Speaker 1: get huge government subsidies to pay for it, and those 197 00:10:45,559 --> 00:10:48,480 Speaker 1: have expired. That's what the shutdown was all about. So 198 00:10:48,520 --> 00:10:52,880 Speaker 1: we're headed to another shutdown in two weeks. About those substies, well, 199 00:10:53,559 --> 00:10:58,719 Speaker 1: yesterday this week Congress started to pass the patch for that. 200 00:10:59,000 --> 00:11:01,120 Speaker 1: We thought they'd do like a a one year patch 201 00:11:01,360 --> 00:11:04,600 Speaker 1: continue the subsidies to give everybody time to figure out 202 00:11:04,600 --> 00:11:07,440 Speaker 1: how to fix the system, but instead it was three years, 203 00:11:08,000 --> 00:11:11,480 Speaker 1: so for three years the subsidies will continue. Now this 204 00:11:11,600 --> 00:11:15,280 Speaker 1: is bad for Democrats in the midterms because if the 205 00:11:15,320 --> 00:11:18,480 Speaker 1: whole thing expired, healthcare costs would have gone way up. 206 00:11:18,520 --> 00:11:22,040 Speaker 1: It would have helped Democrats run for the midterms, but 207 00:11:22,240 --> 00:11:24,760 Speaker 1: they've lost this issue now by putting in this patch. 208 00:11:25,040 --> 00:11:29,439 Speaker 1: So apparently what Democrats want to do is they want 209 00:11:29,480 --> 00:11:33,960 Speaker 1: to use these incidents with Ice as the big midterm election. 210 00:11:34,040 --> 00:11:36,839 Speaker 1: They'll try affordability. But the problem is, and I think 211 00:11:36,840 --> 00:11:39,200 Speaker 1: they kind of know this, as we head into the summer, 212 00:11:39,280 --> 00:11:42,680 Speaker 1: prices are going to come way down. Inflation has been dropping. 213 00:11:42,960 --> 00:11:45,200 Speaker 1: Everything is. Prices have been dropping, and the economy has 214 00:11:45,240 --> 00:11:47,960 Speaker 1: been picking up steam. The tax cuts from the big 215 00:11:48,000 --> 00:11:51,520 Speaker 1: beautiful bill now kick in starting this month. People will 216 00:11:51,520 --> 00:11:56,080 Speaker 1: be getting more in their paychecks. So affordability economy, that 217 00:11:56,160 --> 00:11:57,760 Speaker 1: might not be the greatest issue, but they're going to 218 00:11:57,920 --> 00:12:02,000 Speaker 1: use ice as the midterms issue. So in fact, they're 219 00:12:02,000 --> 00:12:07,559 Speaker 1: talking about maybe another government shutdown over ice, over getting 220 00:12:07,640 --> 00:12:11,760 Speaker 1: rid of ice. There'll be a defund the ice movement coming, 221 00:12:12,360 --> 00:12:15,840 Speaker 1: so keep an eye out for that. Hey, Iran is 222 00:12:15,840 --> 00:12:18,440 Speaker 1: an amazing situation. You know, you've always wanted to get 223 00:12:18,520 --> 00:12:20,680 Speaker 1: rid of this iatolem. You always thought, maybe, you know, 224 00:12:20,679 --> 00:12:25,280 Speaker 1: if you stir up a rebellion revolution in Iran, maybe 225 00:12:25,320 --> 00:12:27,440 Speaker 1: that will put Well, we didn't have to do a thing. 226 00:12:27,559 --> 00:12:31,440 Speaker 1: It already rows up on its own. The people of 227 00:12:31,679 --> 00:12:36,839 Speaker 1: Iran are rebelling like crazy, protesting all of this. It's 228 00:12:36,880 --> 00:12:40,440 Speaker 1: gotten so out of hand that Iran has shut down 229 00:12:40,480 --> 00:12:43,800 Speaker 1: their internet as a way to stop that. You see 230 00:12:43,840 --> 00:12:47,240 Speaker 1: signs now death to the Ayatola, which usually would get 231 00:12:47,280 --> 00:12:50,720 Speaker 1: you killed in a second, but the revolution is so 232 00:12:50,920 --> 00:12:53,760 Speaker 1: bold right now. They've got these signs up. And apparently 233 00:12:53,800 --> 00:12:58,160 Speaker 1: the Ayatola, who's very old, is making plans. He thinks 234 00:12:58,280 --> 00:13:00,560 Speaker 1: there's a good chance he may have to flee the 235 00:13:00,600 --> 00:13:05,000 Speaker 1: country and leave that the revolution may be successful if 236 00:13:05,000 --> 00:13:07,760 Speaker 1: the Iotola leaves. Apparently he's planning to go to Russia 237 00:13:08,440 --> 00:13:12,320 Speaker 1: where they will take care of them. And he's got 238 00:13:12,360 --> 00:13:14,360 Speaker 1: about twenty people he wants to take with him inner 239 00:13:14,400 --> 00:13:18,280 Speaker 1: circle family, so that would be fascinating. He leaves, and 240 00:13:18,320 --> 00:13:22,480 Speaker 1: then the revolution, if it's successful, you get a normal government, 241 00:13:22,640 --> 00:13:26,400 Speaker 1: normal some kind of sort of democratic government. So you'll 242 00:13:26,400 --> 00:13:29,760 Speaker 1: have that in Venezuela, you'll have that in Iran. If 243 00:13:30,200 --> 00:13:32,679 Speaker 1: President Trump keeps going on the path he's going on, 244 00:13:32,920 --> 00:13:35,640 Speaker 1: you'll probably end up with some kind of democracy in 245 00:13:35,679 --> 00:13:40,839 Speaker 1: Cuba Columbia. He'll bring down these dictators. Now, the meeting 246 00:13:40,920 --> 00:13:44,520 Speaker 1: is today with all the oil companies. The president wants 247 00:13:44,559 --> 00:13:47,560 Speaker 1: the big oil companies to go into Venezuela and fix 248 00:13:48,559 --> 00:13:54,240 Speaker 1: the oil drilling, the infrastructure. It's all decayed and gone. Venezuela, 249 00:13:54,280 --> 00:13:57,000 Speaker 1: believe it or not, has twenty percent of the world's oil. 250 00:13:57,320 --> 00:14:00,880 Speaker 1: Seventeen trillion in oil is under the ground there three 251 00:14:00,960 --> 00:14:05,480 Speaker 1: hundred billion barrels. They've got more oil than the Saudis do. 252 00:14:05,600 --> 00:14:07,960 Speaker 1: So the problem is they don't have any oil industry. 253 00:14:08,000 --> 00:14:10,960 Speaker 1: They let all the wells, the infrastructure totally decay. They 254 00:14:11,000 --> 00:14:13,240 Speaker 1: can't get it out of the ground. But you send 255 00:14:13,280 --> 00:14:15,280 Speaker 1: these oil companies in there. They know how to fix 256 00:14:15,320 --> 00:14:17,400 Speaker 1: that stuff. Take a while, but they'll fix it. Get 257 00:14:17,400 --> 00:14:20,480 Speaker 1: the oil pumping, and then Venezuela could not only be 258 00:14:20,520 --> 00:14:24,160 Speaker 1: a democracy, it could be the most wealthy, booming economy 259 00:14:24,720 --> 00:14:27,720 Speaker 1: as it was way back when before the socialists came in. 260 00:14:27,880 --> 00:14:30,720 Speaker 1: Now here's the only catch. President has the oil company 261 00:14:30,720 --> 00:14:34,240 Speaker 1: executives coming in today to talk to them about going 262 00:14:34,240 --> 00:14:36,960 Speaker 1: down there and fixing everything. Now, they would love to 263 00:14:37,000 --> 00:14:38,480 Speaker 1: do this because you can make a lot of money 264 00:14:38,520 --> 00:14:43,400 Speaker 1: pumping all that oil. But and they're gonna be very 265 00:14:43,440 --> 00:14:44,880 Speaker 1: careful with the President. They're not going to really come 266 00:14:44,880 --> 00:14:46,960 Speaker 1: out and say this. They're going to kind of stall 267 00:14:47,040 --> 00:14:49,880 Speaker 1: for time because they don't really want to go in there. 268 00:14:49,880 --> 00:14:53,840 Speaker 1: Here's the problem, and they're not wrong about this. It'd 269 00:14:53,840 --> 00:14:56,360 Speaker 1: be great if Trump's in office. They will go down there, 270 00:14:56,440 --> 00:15:00,680 Speaker 1: fix the oil infrastructure, oil beflow, everything be great. But 271 00:15:01,760 --> 00:15:03,400 Speaker 1: they got to think to them, so, well, what if 272 00:15:03,400 --> 00:15:08,400 Speaker 1: the Republicans lose Congress in November, what if Democrats take over? 273 00:15:08,440 --> 00:15:10,360 Speaker 1: They won't pack us up. We won't get the protection 274 00:15:10,480 --> 00:15:12,480 Speaker 1: we need, the money we need. And then they got 275 00:15:12,520 --> 00:15:15,800 Speaker 1: to think, what if a couple of years that Democrats 276 00:15:15,800 --> 00:15:18,640 Speaker 1: take the White House, if it's a democratic government, they'll 277 00:15:18,680 --> 00:15:21,400 Speaker 1: be stuck down there in Venezuela without the federal backup 278 00:15:21,960 --> 00:15:24,960 Speaker 1: and protection. So they're not too crazy about going in 279 00:15:25,000 --> 00:15:27,240 Speaker 1: there right now. So, hey, we got a lot to 280 00:15:27,280 --> 00:15:29,600 Speaker 1: get to this hour. Oh we'll get to CBS that 281 00:15:29,760 --> 00:15:34,080 Speaker 1: Barry Weiss, the new person running it, is cleaning things up, 282 00:15:34,160 --> 00:15:37,240 Speaker 1: that Evening News now is a little more balanced. And 283 00:15:37,360 --> 00:15:41,800 Speaker 1: apparently she's all over sixty minutes stopping some of their 284 00:15:41,840 --> 00:15:45,880 Speaker 1: stories because they're totally unbalanced, letting some of their stories 285 00:15:45,920 --> 00:15:48,200 Speaker 1: go if they agree to put in both sides. This 286 00:15:48,280 --> 00:15:52,360 Speaker 1: has got CBS people very upset. So we'll get to 287 00:15:52,400 --> 00:15:55,360 Speaker 1: that in a lot more coming up. We'll take some calls. Next. 288 00:15:55,360 --> 00:15:59,040 Speaker 1: Eight hundred three to two one zero seven ten is 289 00:15:59,080 --> 00:16:03,200 Speaker 1: the number eight hundred three to two one zero seven ten. 290 00:16:03,400 --> 00:16:07,680 Speaker 2: Now back to the mont Simone show on WR. 291 00:16:09,040 --> 00:16:11,440 Speaker 1: Hey, let's take some calls.

Let's go to Shelley in 294 00:16:18,320 --> 00:16:19,680 Speaker 1: Long Island. Shelley, how you. 295 00:16:19,680 --> 00:16:24,720 Speaker 4: Doing, Hey, good morning, Mark. Loved the show. Mark. We 296 00:16:24,880 --> 00:16:29,240 Speaker 4: have not seen one high profile arrest. Day after day 297 00:16:29,280 --> 00:16:33,400 Speaker 4: we see governors, mayors threaten the president and I and 298 00:16:33,440 --> 00:16:36,760 Speaker 4: no one gets arrested. It's so fatiguing arrest the. 299 00:16:36,760 --> 00:16:39,840 Speaker 1: Governors and mayors and I can't arrest them. They're allowed 300 00:16:39,880 --> 00:16:41,880 Speaker 1: to be idiots. It's not a crime to be stupid. 301 00:16:43,320 --> 00:16:45,160 Speaker 4: So why are we going to see a high profile 302 00:16:45,280 --> 00:16:46,720 Speaker 4: arrest any any time? 303 00:16:47,440 --> 00:16:49,800 Speaker 1: I think you saw on Saturday, Maduro that was pretty 304 00:16:49,880 --> 00:16:50,480 Speaker 1: high profile. 305 00:16:51,560 --> 00:16:53,480 Speaker 4: Well, I mean in the United States. 306 00:16:53,600 --> 00:16:57,360 Speaker 1: Well you've seen the Letitia James.

I guess these mayors, 315 00:17:17,560 --> 00:17:18,600 Speaker 4: these governors. 316 00:17:18,200 --> 00:17:22,199 Speaker 1: Who are But you can't arrest somebody for being an idiot, 317 00:17:22,240 --> 00:17:25,680 Speaker 1: for being crazy.

It's one thing 403 00:21:10,680 --> 00:21:12,679 Speaker 1: to rile them up. But to get them to start 404 00:21:13,000 --> 00:21:17,560 Speaker 1: using their SUVs they're soccer mom SUVs to run over 405 00:21:17,640 --> 00:21:19,639 Speaker 1: police or try to drive right into the middle of 406 00:21:19,680 --> 00:21:24,239 Speaker 1: a police operation and bust.

They talked 432 00:22:50,200 --> 00:22:52,200 Speaker 1: about it as the biggest movie of the year. It's 433 00:22:52,240 --> 00:22:55,760 Speaker 1: doing okay, but it's doing great. Did you see that I. 434 00:22:55,800 --> 00:22:59,639 Speaker 3: Used your picture? Yeah, and I featured you. 435 00:23:00,160 --> 00:23:04,280 Speaker 1: Know, and it was great. I actually knew the real Marty Supreme, who, 436 00:23:04,359 --> 00:23:06,119 Speaker 1: by the way, had nothing to do with this movie. 437 00:23:06,119 --> 00:23:09,320 Speaker 1: He was the ping pong champion. But this stuff that 438 00:23:09,320 --> 00:23:09,840 Speaker 1: they was. 439 00:23:09,880 --> 00:23:13,680 Speaker 11: Inspired by him, the idea movie is inspired by him. 440 00:23:13,840 --> 00:23:16,720 Speaker 1: Yeah, but with the chasing, the women, the gangsters, the shootings, 441 00:23:16,760 --> 00:23:18,880 Speaker 1: the car chases, none of that really happened with him. 442 00:23:18,880 --> 00:23:21,440 Speaker 1: He was actually a pretty boring guy in real life. 443 00:23:23,920 --> 00:23:26,280 Speaker 1: But I'm looking at the box office, it's always like 444 00:23:26,359 --> 00:23:28,360 Speaker 1: number two or three. It's not like number one. 445 00:23:28,359 --> 00:23:28,919 Speaker 3: Every week. 446 00:23:29,600 --> 00:23:33,960 Speaker 11: Well, you know, Avatar is out, so that's like the 447 00:23:34,040 --> 00:23:37,760 Speaker 11: big commercial movie at the moment. But Marty Supreme is 448 00:23:37,840 --> 00:23:41,119 Speaker 11: up to like sixteen million dollars. I think after just 449 00:23:41,160 --> 00:23:42,439 Speaker 11: a couple of weeks, that's great. 450 00:23:42,520 --> 00:23:44,560 Speaker 3: Are you kidding? Okay, that's wonderful. 451 00:23:44,720 --> 00:23:47,880 Speaker 1: It's a great movie. Yeah, I mean it's a great movie. 452 00:23:48,240 --> 00:23:50,440 Speaker 1: Everybody should go see it. When does it start streaming 453 00:23:50,440 --> 00:23:51,639 Speaker 1: because some people wait for that. 454 00:23:52,400 --> 00:23:56,080 Speaker 11: Oh it's not. It's a sixty one million. That's fantastic 455 00:23:56,200 --> 00:23:59,280 Speaker 11: after twenty days, and the first few days were not 456 00:23:59,520 --> 00:24:04,160 Speaker 11: really they were just in two theaters. No, it's doing great. 457 00:24:04,240 --> 00:24:07,600 Speaker 11: It won't be streaming for a long time. It's got 458 00:24:07,640 --> 00:24:11,480 Speaker 11: to get through the award season. You know, Tomorrow Sunday 459 00:24:11,560 --> 00:24:15,400 Speaker 11: night is the Golden Globes. This past weekend was the Critics' 460 00:24:15,440 --> 00:24:20,840 Speaker 11: Choice Awards, which he won Timothy Challame, and then we're 461 00:24:20,840 --> 00:24:23,560 Speaker 11: gonna have the Golden Globes. Then we're gonna have Oscar nominations. 462 00:24:24,119 --> 00:24:26,760 Speaker 11: Then we're going to have things like the SAG Awards, 463 00:24:27,440 --> 00:24:29,840 Speaker 11: and then finally the Oscars on March fifteenth. I don't 464 00:24:29,840 --> 00:24:34,480 Speaker 11: think you'll see Marty Supreme streaming until after March fifteenth, 465 00:24:35,960 --> 00:24:38,520 Speaker 11: but that's not bad. It Eventually it'll get there.

And 478 00:25:17,240 --> 00:25:22,480 Speaker 11: I had no idea that Marty Riceman had written a 479 00:25:22,520 --> 00:25:25,919 Speaker 11: second book that was never been published, and he wanted 480 00:25:26,160 --> 00:25:28,840 Speaker 11: Harry Evans to publish at a random house. So he 481 00:25:28,920 --> 00:25:31,240 Speaker 11: kept going to and Harry put a ping pong table 482 00:25:31,320 --> 00:25:35,960 Speaker 11: in his basement on fifty seventh Street, and Marty was 483 00:25:35,960 --> 00:25:39,480 Speaker 11: going over there and playing ping pong to the disgust 484 00:25:39,560 --> 00:25:41,400 Speaker 11: of Tina Brown, who didn't like him and didn't want 485 00:25:41,440 --> 00:25:45,399 Speaker 11: him in her house. But Harry loved it, and all 486 00:25:45,440 --> 00:25:47,240 Speaker 11: they did was play ping pong night and day. 487 00:25:47,880 --> 00:25:50,720 Speaker 1: Yeah, he was an incredible ping pong player. Otherwise kind 488 00:25:50,720 --> 00:25:52,800 Speaker 1: of a dull and annoying sort of a guy, kind 489 00:25:52,800 --> 00:25:55,960 Speaker 1: of a little sweepie. 490 00:25:57,359 --> 00:25:59,400 Speaker 11: You could sort of see that in the movie. Actually 491 00:26:00,080 --> 00:26:03,160 Speaker 11: concerneracy as he got older, this would wear thin, you know. 492 00:26:03,640 --> 00:26:07,200 Speaker 1: Yeah, it was. You know that the behavior is cute 493 00:26:07,200 --> 00:26:09,480 Speaker 1: when you're twenty two, when you're fifty two. Right that 494 00:26:09,640 --> 00:26:12,680 Speaker 1: cut right now. The other thing we haven't talked about it. 495 00:26:12,680 --> 00:26:15,720 Speaker 1: Tell us about what you know about Nick Reiner, Rob Reiner, 496 00:26:15,760 --> 00:26:16,520 Speaker 1: the whole situation. 497 00:26:17,280 --> 00:26:18,639 Speaker 3: I don't know anything more than you do. 498 00:26:18,760 --> 00:26:22,800 Speaker 11: It's such a tragic story because Rob Reiner, who I knew, 499 00:26:23,359 --> 00:26:26,520 Speaker 11: and his wife Michelle, who I also knew, were just 500 00:26:26,880 --> 00:26:30,879 Speaker 11: the greatest people. And apparently they were living with this 501 00:26:31,000 --> 00:26:34,439 Speaker 11: incredible catastrophe in their house and didn't really know what 502 00:26:34,520 --> 00:26:37,080 Speaker 11: to do, and they were doing the best they could, 503 00:26:37,119 --> 00:26:39,120 Speaker 11: and they thought, well, just you know, keep giving him 504 00:26:39,119 --> 00:26:42,359 Speaker 11: money and love and it'll turn around. And obviously the 505 00:26:42,480 --> 00:26:43,480 Speaker 11: kid was really sick. 506 00:26:44,240 --> 00:26:49,360 Speaker 3: So now he's lost his lawyer. His lawyer withdrew. 507 00:26:49,040 --> 00:26:52,520 Speaker 11: From the case this week and he's going to have 508 00:26:52,520 --> 00:26:55,359 Speaker 11: a public defender. And the lawyer didn't say why, but 509 00:26:55,520 --> 00:27:00,399 Speaker 11: my guess is that the brother and sisters would not 510 00:27:00,480 --> 00:27:04,280 Speaker 11: pay for the defense. This lawyer, his name is Alan Jackson, 511 00:27:04,400 --> 00:27:07,520 Speaker 11: probably costs one thousand dollars an hour or whatever. And 512 00:27:08,280 --> 00:27:10,760 Speaker 11: if you it's a tragic thing. Can you imagine that 513 00:27:10,880 --> 00:27:13,080 Speaker 11: your sibling kills your parents and then comes to you 514 00:27:13,080 --> 00:27:14,520 Speaker 11: and says, will you pay for my defense? 515 00:27:15,359 --> 00:27:17,040 Speaker 3: And what are you going to do? You know? 516 00:27:17,200 --> 00:27:19,719 Speaker 11: And I think that probably they've decided they're not going 517 00:27:19,760 --> 00:27:21,960 Speaker 11: to pay for the defense anyway. He's going to wind 518 00:27:22,040 --> 00:27:25,320 Speaker 11: up in a mental hospital some kind and they're going 519 00:27:25,359 --> 00:27:28,199 Speaker 11: to plead insanity and and it's horrible. 520 00:27:28,200 --> 00:27:29,680 Speaker 3: He's ruined all of their lives. 521 00:27:30,240 --> 00:27:34,680 Speaker 1: Apparently, apparently he's officially been diagnosed with being a schizophrenic. 522 00:27:35,720 --> 00:27:37,720 Speaker 1: And a couple of criminal lawyers told me, you have 523 00:27:37,800 --> 00:27:40,840 Speaker 1: to withdraw because you can't deal with schizophrenics as a lawyer. 524 00:27:41,560 --> 00:27:43,800 Speaker 3: Also, you need two lawyers. 525 00:27:43,840 --> 00:27:49,600 Speaker 11: Actually, right, is it. 526 00:27:49,640 --> 00:27:52,600 Speaker 3: Too soon for jokes? 527 00:27:52,640 --> 00:27:55,800 Speaker 1: But now apparently the family has said they do not 528 00:27:55,960 --> 00:27:59,359 Speaker 1: want the death penalty. They've asked the DA and the. 529 00:27:59,400 --> 00:28:01,919 Speaker 11: D about the death penalty for their brother. 530 00:28:02,119 --> 00:28:04,439 Speaker 1: Yeah, but the DA has said the wishes of the 531 00:28:04,440 --> 00:28:07,320 Speaker 1: family will be a paramount to his decision, so they 532 00:28:07,320 --> 00:28:08,600 Speaker 1: will not seek to death YCTY. 533 00:28:09,440 --> 00:28:11,040 Speaker 11: No, he's going to go to jail for the rest 534 00:28:11,040 --> 00:28:13,440 Speaker 11: of his life, and he'll probably he'll die in jail, 535 00:28:13,440 --> 00:28:16,320 Speaker 11: and maybe it'll be a hospital jail, because he's you know, 536 00:28:16,560 --> 00:28:20,879 Speaker 11: obviously very very very sick guy. But what he's done 537 00:28:21,160 --> 00:28:24,040 Speaker 11: is just it's unforgivable. They'll never be able to forgive 538 00:28:24,119 --> 00:28:28,760 Speaker 11: him for this, and it must be the winding down 539 00:28:28,880 --> 00:28:31,359 Speaker 11: of any state when a person is older is a 540 00:28:31,440 --> 00:28:34,200 Speaker 11: very difficult thing. That you realize that Rob Bryer was 541 00:28:34,240 --> 00:28:37,679 Speaker 11: at the height of his careers, so this must be 542 00:28:38,480 --> 00:28:40,760 Speaker 11: for these kids to have to deal with this now 543 00:28:41,040 --> 00:28:43,840 Speaker 11: is just the worst thing ever. It's unimaginable. 544 00:28:44,200 --> 00:28:47,080 Speaker 1: Yeah, hey, let's talk about Bruno Mars. It was always 545 00:28:47,120 --> 00:28:49,200 Speaker 1: a very big deal, but somehow he got hotter than 546 00:28:49,280 --> 00:28:51,280 Speaker 1: ever and now he's announced he's going to play stadiums. 547 00:28:51,280 --> 00:28:53,320 Speaker 1: How did he get so much hotter all of a sudden. 548 00:28:54,360 --> 00:28:56,000 Speaker 3: No, he's been hot for a while, you know. 549 00:28:56,080 --> 00:28:59,320 Speaker 11: He had this huge hit with Lady Gaga over the 550 00:28:59,360 --> 00:28:59,800 Speaker 11: last year. 551 00:29:00,520 --> 00:29:02,520 Speaker 3: It's a massive hit. It's called Die with a Smile. 552 00:29:03,120 --> 00:29:06,640 Speaker 11: It's a ballad and it's actually the biggest record of 553 00:29:06,680 --> 00:29:10,320 Speaker 11: the last year and a half, so that really helps him. 554 00:29:10,360 --> 00:29:12,760 Speaker 11: He also had a hit with one of the young 555 00:29:12,800 --> 00:29:17,080 Speaker 11: women from Black Pink in the Korean pop so it 556 00:29:17,160 --> 00:29:20,240 Speaker 11: really reignited. These two things really reignited him. So he's 557 00:29:20,280 --> 00:29:23,479 Speaker 11: made a new album that's coming out of February twenty seventh, 558 00:29:23,880 --> 00:29:27,160 Speaker 11: and last night he dropped a new single, and he's 559 00:29:27,200 --> 00:29:30,480 Speaker 11: apparently in a fight online with one of his fans, 560 00:29:30,520 --> 00:29:35,440 Speaker 11: who said on Twitter. The fan said, this guy puts 561 00:29:35,440 --> 00:29:37,160 Speaker 11: out the same song all the time and no one 562 00:29:37,160 --> 00:29:42,480 Speaker 11: ever says anything, and Berto bar has attacked him personally 563 00:29:42,600 --> 00:29:44,560 Speaker 11: back on Twitter, which was hilarious. 564 00:29:44,600 --> 00:29:46,560 Speaker 3: But I have to say the song. 565 00:29:47,480 --> 00:29:49,960 Speaker 11: Which I can't remember, I think it's called It Just Might, 566 00:29:50,800 --> 00:29:53,240 Speaker 11: and it's a dance song and it's fun. It sounds 567 00:29:53,320 --> 00:29:59,320 Speaker 11: exactly like Leo Sayer's You Make Me Feel Like Dancing 568 00:29:59,640 --> 00:30:03,080 Speaker 11: se exact same song. And this is not the first 569 00:30:03,120 --> 00:30:05,480 Speaker 11: time Bruno Mars has done this. He did their song 570 00:30:06,040 --> 00:30:08,800 Speaker 11: early in his career. I can't read the name of it. 571 00:30:08,800 --> 00:30:12,360 Speaker 11: It sounded like the Police, which sing Every time I 572 00:30:12,360 --> 00:30:15,280 Speaker 11: started playing, you thought, oh, this is the Police. Bruno 573 00:30:15,360 --> 00:30:17,760 Speaker 11: Mars is very good at sort of copying other people's 574 00:30:17,760 --> 00:30:20,520 Speaker 11: styles and then adding a little bit of something else 575 00:30:20,560 --> 00:30:23,440 Speaker 11: to make it sound new. But he's fun, you know, 576 00:30:23,640 --> 00:30:26,320 Speaker 11: he's a fun guy. He has a great voice, and 577 00:30:27,120 --> 00:30:29,600 Speaker 11: I don't mind him doing that and sting say at 578 00:30:29,600 --> 00:30:30,840 Speaker 11: the time, I don't care, do. 579 00:30:30,920 --> 00:30:31,520 Speaker 3: Whatever you want. 580 00:30:32,000 --> 00:30:33,920 Speaker 11: I don't know what Leo Sayer will say when he 581 00:30:33,920 --> 00:30:36,880 Speaker 11: hears this, but I played it. It dropped on Spotify 582 00:30:36,920 --> 00:30:39,200 Speaker 11: about twelve thirty last night, and I said, I'd better 583 00:30:39,280 --> 00:30:41,960 Speaker 11: listen to this, and I'm like, this sounds like something I. 584 00:30:41,880 --> 00:30:42,600 Speaker 3: Know very much. 585 00:30:44,080 --> 00:30:46,080 Speaker 11: So but he's but Bruno. 586 00:30:45,840 --> 00:30:47,840 Speaker 3: Let's see, is he I'll tell you right now. Is 587 00:30:47,840 --> 00:30:48,240 Speaker 3: it a hit? 588 00:30:48,360 --> 00:30:50,920 Speaker 11: Probably it's probably number one, because you know his people 589 00:30:50,960 --> 00:30:52,400 Speaker 11: don't even know who leos Aya was. 590 00:30:52,720 --> 00:30:55,280 Speaker 3: Yeah, you know his fans, they have no idea. 591 00:30:55,400 --> 00:30:57,360 Speaker 1: No, he had a bunch of hits mid seventies. Is 592 00:30:57,400 --> 00:30:59,760 Speaker 1: he still alive? I assuming, of course he is. 593 00:31:00,200 --> 00:31:01,400 Speaker 3: You know, I'll tell you. 594 00:31:01,480 --> 00:31:04,080 Speaker 11: I'll tell you something about Bruno Mars that is smart. 595 00:31:04,400 --> 00:31:07,200 Speaker 11: They booked him this big tour. It's number six. They 596 00:31:07,520 --> 00:31:10,280 Speaker 11: booked him this big tour. But he's not going out 597 00:31:10,320 --> 00:31:13,040 Speaker 11: on his own, which is really smart. He's going out 598 00:31:13,080 --> 00:31:16,680 Speaker 11: with four other R and B stars Let's go Away 599 00:31:17,160 --> 00:31:20,760 Speaker 11: and Leon Thomas. And this is what you have to 600 00:31:20,800 --> 00:31:25,480 Speaker 11: do now because people cannot fill these stadiums at these prices, 601 00:31:26,040 --> 00:31:30,200 Speaker 11: so the tickets are so jacked up and You've seen 602 00:31:30,240 --> 00:31:34,560 Speaker 11: a lot of calamities of tours where you know there's 603 00:31:34,720 --> 00:31:38,080 Speaker 11: like large empty areas of stadiums. So I think that 604 00:31:38,080 --> 00:31:40,040 Speaker 11: it's Bruno Marster. I really want to see it at 605 00:31:40,000 --> 00:31:42,000 Speaker 11: this Bruno Mars tour. I think it's going to be great. 606 00:31:42,360 --> 00:31:45,440 Speaker 1: Well, you could have large empty areas if you're met life. 607 00:31:45,520 --> 00:31:47,200 Speaker 1: Jets are used to it. Giants are used to it. 608 00:31:47,200 --> 00:31:48,280 Speaker 1: A lot of empty areas in the. 609 00:31:49,440 --> 00:31:50,120 Speaker 3: Well the giants. 610 00:31:50,160 --> 00:31:52,959 Speaker 11: Maybe you're picking up some esteem though, aren't they. 611 00:31:53,960 --> 00:31:56,360 Speaker 1: That's when you know you're bad.

Kathy Hokeel 659 00:34:15,600 --> 00:34:19,640 Speaker 1: will look like she will head to the left, far 660 00:34:19,719 --> 00:34:23,360 Speaker 1: to the left, trying to get the nomination. She's closing 661 00:34:23,440 --> 00:34:27,879 Speaker 1: up to Mom Donnie.

Remember, Bruce Blakeman just won a 666 00:34:38,200 --> 00:34:41,759 Speaker 1: big election in Nassau County second time. And if you 667 00:34:41,760 --> 00:34:44,440 Speaker 1: look at the makeup of Nassau County. It's very similar 668 00:34:44,520 --> 00:34:49,239 Speaker 1: to the makeup of New York State demographics, party, all 669 00:34:49,280 --> 00:34:52,200 Speaker 1: that sort of stuff. So excellent shot. He's far more 670 00:34:52,280 --> 00:34:56,440 Speaker 1: qualified to be governor than Kathy Hokle is. So we'll 671 00:34:56,480 --> 00:34:58,600 Speaker 1: talk to him later this hour. By the way, he 672 00:34:58,600 --> 00:35:02,960 Speaker 1: gets inaugurated for the second two on Monday, big inauguration ceremony, 673 00:35:03,440 --> 00:35:08,279 Speaker 1: Mom Donnie of course, just being Mom Donnie. He's doing 674 00:35:08,320 --> 00:35:10,080 Speaker 1: lots of interviews. I don't know if he does any work. 675 00:35:10,080 --> 00:35:12,440 Speaker 1: There's no sign of him actually doing anything as mayor. 676 00:35:13,080 --> 00:35:16,719 Speaker 1: The good news about Mom Donnie. People have said, I 677 00:35:16,760 --> 00:35:20,200 Speaker 1: don't want to say who, but they've said a couple 678 00:35:20,200 --> 00:35:23,520 Speaker 1: of things. One, he doesn't really do anything. It's all talk. 679 00:35:23,600 --> 00:35:24,880 Speaker 1: He just gets out there and he talks, and he 680 00:35:24,880 --> 00:35:26,560 Speaker 1: talks a mile a minute, and he does one interview 681 00:35:26,600 --> 00:35:30,160 Speaker 1: after another, and it's pointing people and they talk and 682 00:35:30,200 --> 00:35:32,880 Speaker 1: he talks and they talk, but nobody ever actually does anything. 683 00:35:33,719 --> 00:35:35,920 Speaker 1: The other thing is people say they believe he's not 684 00:35:35,960 --> 00:35:40,120 Speaker 1: a very courageous person. He's basically kind of a coward. 685 00:35:40,239 --> 00:35:44,799 Speaker 1: So these big, big controversial things he's proposing, he may 686 00:35:44,840 --> 00:35:47,280 Speaker 1: never actually pull the trigger on and may never actually 687 00:35:48,040 --> 00:35:50,920 Speaker 1: do any of them, But he does love to talk here. 688 00:35:51,520 --> 00:35:54,480 Speaker 1: I never saw guy do so many interviews. Yesterday he's 689 00:35:54,520 --> 00:35:58,160 Speaker 1: talking a good morning, good day in New York. Hello, Schenectady, 690 00:35:58,239 --> 00:36:02,120 Speaker 1: He's talking to New York want anywhere and everywhere, talking 691 00:36:02,120 --> 00:36:03,160 Speaker 1: about anything and everything. 692 00:36:03,200 --> 00:36:06,960 Speaker 13: For too many years, the relationship between Albany and City 693 00:36:06,960 --> 00:36:11,839 Speaker 13: Hall has been defined by dysfunction and discourse, by feuds 694 00:36:11,960 --> 00:36:16,359 Speaker 13: and by factionalism. Petty grievances have interfered with the work 695 00:36:16,400 --> 00:36:17,520 Speaker 13: of serving the people. 696 00:36:17,719 --> 00:36:19,920 Speaker 1: But again, it's just talk. You just get up there 697 00:36:19,960 --> 00:36:22,040 Speaker 1: and you talk, and for too many years you talk 698 00:36:22,160 --> 00:36:25,000 Speaker 1: like this, and you sound like you're making some important 699 00:36:25,000 --> 00:36:28,360 Speaker 1: point and nobody's listening, and meantime you're getting nothing done. 700 00:36:28,480 --> 00:36:30,840 Speaker 1: And then of course there's all his left wing stuff. 701 00:36:30,880 --> 00:36:32,760 Speaker 12: Obviously that's not an opinion that I share. 702 00:36:33,120 --> 00:36:34,319 Speaker 1: And oh, Ally, you. 703 00:36:34,320 --> 00:36:34,839 Speaker 8: Know what this is. 704 00:36:34,840 --> 00:36:39,200 Speaker 1: This is he appointed this woman to run housing, real 705 00:36:39,280 --> 00:36:40,840 Speaker 1: left wing cook. Now you just have to accept this. 706 00:36:41,680 --> 00:36:45,759 Speaker 1: Mondonie is basically the third term of Deblasio. And it's 707 00:36:45,800 --> 00:36:47,640 Speaker 1: the same as Deblasi. You point a bunch of left 708 00:36:47,680 --> 00:36:50,880 Speaker 1: wing kooks who just say left wing kookie things, and 709 00:36:50,920 --> 00:36:53,480 Speaker 1: everybody looks at their Twitter from three years ago and 710 00:36:53,520 --> 00:36:56,279 Speaker 1: they can't believe the things that they said. And this 711 00:36:56,320 --> 00:36:58,279 Speaker 1: woman he appointed to run housing. You go back and 712 00:36:58,280 --> 00:37:00,240 Speaker 1: look at her Twitter. I think she took it down 713 00:37:00,640 --> 00:37:02,480 Speaker 1: a couple of days ago, but when people looked at 714 00:37:02,520 --> 00:37:05,160 Speaker 1: her Twitter from two years ago, three years ago, she's 715 00:37:05,200 --> 00:37:07,640 Speaker 1: tweeting all kinds of nonsense. She said, owning a home 716 00:37:07,719 --> 00:37:12,520 Speaker 1: is white supremacy. Nobody should be allowed to have private property. 717 00:37:12,600 --> 00:37:16,000 Speaker 1: I mean, all this Unamerican nonsense, crazy stuff. So Mom 718 00:37:16,000 --> 00:37:17,080 Speaker 1: Donnie was asked about her. 719 00:37:17,120 --> 00:37:19,719 Speaker 12: Obviously, that's not an opinion that I share. And I 720 00:37:19,760 --> 00:37:22,320 Speaker 12: made the decision to have her as our executive director 721 00:37:22,360 --> 00:37:24,480 Speaker 12: of the Mayor's Office to protect tenants, not because of 722 00:37:24,480 --> 00:37:26,840 Speaker 12: her comments, but because of her work. She is someone 723 00:37:26,880 --> 00:37:29,480 Speaker 12: who has won significant victories for tenants, not just in 724 00:37:29,520 --> 00:37:31,719 Speaker 12: New York City, but across the entirety of the state 725 00:37:32,440 --> 00:37:35,520 Speaker 12: formative part of what was an upstate downstate coalition, and 726 00:37:35,560 --> 00:37:37,879 Speaker 12: we've seen her already hard at work in this past week. 727 00:37:37,960 --> 00:37:40,759 Speaker 12: She's someone who has been a core part of our 728 00:37:40,840 --> 00:37:44,359 Speaker 12: efforts to coordinate rental ripoff hearings across the city, as 729 00:37:44,400 --> 00:37:46,319 Speaker 12: well as informing tenants of their rights in a city 730 00:37:46,320 --> 00:37:48,280 Speaker 12: where oftentimes they're not made aware of them. 731 00:37:48,480 --> 00:37:51,400 Speaker 1: Yeah, So that's all you got to do, is if 732 00:37:51,400 --> 00:37:52,759 Speaker 1: you want to be a Mom Donney type of mayor, 733 00:37:52,760 --> 00:37:54,040 Speaker 1: you just talk very fast and you sound like you 734 00:37:54,080 --> 00:37:55,759 Speaker 1: know what you're talking about, and you say things like, 735 00:37:55,800 --> 00:37:59,279 Speaker 1: she has made incredible strides since she's she's gotten so 736 00:37:59,320 --> 00:38:02,880 Speaker 1: much accomplished with housing. Well, if that were true, you 737 00:38:02,880 --> 00:38:05,040 Speaker 1: wouldn't have the housing problem. You just ran saying it's 738 00:38:05,040 --> 00:38:07,239 Speaker 1: all out of control and terrible. So what strides did 739 00:38:07,280 --> 00:38:10,279 Speaker 1: she make? But you ask Mom Donnie. He can talk 740 00:38:10,320 --> 00:38:13,200 Speaker 1: for an hour on any subject, two hours if he 741 00:38:13,239 --> 00:38:15,160 Speaker 1: happens to know something about it. But here he is 742 00:38:15,200 --> 00:38:17,080 Speaker 1: on Venezuela. He called the President. 743 00:38:17,320 --> 00:38:19,800 Speaker 12: Well, I wanted to make clear to the President directly 744 00:38:19,880 --> 00:38:21,440 Speaker 12: that these were the thoughts that I had, and they 745 00:38:21,440 --> 00:38:23,000 Speaker 12: were also the thoughts that I was about to share 746 00:38:23,000 --> 00:38:25,759 Speaker 12: with the world. And this is not just an action 747 00:38:25,880 --> 00:38:28,600 Speaker 12: taken by a federal administration abroad. It's also an action 748 00:38:28,680 --> 00:38:31,240 Speaker 12: that then implicates New York City because right now, Nicholas 749 00:38:31,239 --> 00:38:33,160 Speaker 12: mother Roa is here in New York City, and my 750 00:38:33,280 --> 00:38:34,799 Speaker 12: job as the mayor of New York City is to 751 00:38:34,880 --> 00:38:37,759 Speaker 12: ensure that any federal action has a limited impact, if 752 00:38:37,800 --> 00:38:39,800 Speaker 12: any on the day to day lives of New Yorker. 753 00:38:40,680 --> 00:38:42,440 Speaker 1: You really don't. I'm looking at the window right now 754 00:38:42,480 --> 00:38:44,480 Speaker 1: and mid tam Manhattan, and all these people walking around. 755 00:38:44,520 --> 00:38:48,000 Speaker 1: They don't seem to be worried about Maduro. Here's in 756 00:38:48,040 --> 00:38:50,720 Speaker 1: New York. He's actually in Brooklyn and the Brooklyn Detention Center. 757 00:38:51,080 --> 00:38:54,080 Speaker 1: He's in federal custody, in the federal system. Again, I'm 758 00:38:54,080 --> 00:38:56,480 Speaker 1: looking at everybody else. There's a million people walking around 759 00:38:56,480 --> 00:39:00,600 Speaker 1: out there. They don't seem concerned about it. They don't 760 00:39:00,640 --> 00:39:02,560 Speaker 1: seem to be worrying about it. Now, here's the good 761 00:39:02,560 --> 00:39:06,680 Speaker 1: news about this whole mom, Donnie Mesk. The city council 762 00:39:06,840 --> 00:39:10,600 Speaker 1: Speaker's in charge of the city council really has a 763 00:39:10,640 --> 00:39:13,440 Speaker 1: lot of power, at least as much as the mayor. 764 00:39:13,520 --> 00:39:16,200 Speaker 1: And some would argue the city council speaker has more 765 00:39:16,239 --> 00:39:19,439 Speaker 1: power than the mayor. Well, with the crazy left wing, 766 00:39:19,560 --> 00:39:22,520 Speaker 1: kooky mayor, and of course you got a lot of 767 00:39:22,520 --> 00:39:25,080 Speaker 1: crazy left wing cooks on the city council. Somehow they 768 00:39:25,239 --> 00:39:30,719 Speaker 1: just elected a normal, moderate, common sense woman. Her name 769 00:39:30,800 --> 00:39:34,600 Speaker 1: is Menon. She is the new city council speaker. She's 770 00:39:34,640 --> 00:39:38,080 Speaker 1: not a left wing cook, very normal, very sane, very rational, 771 00:39:38,360 --> 00:39:41,480 Speaker 1: And again, the city council has at least as much 772 00:39:41,520 --> 00:39:44,000 Speaker 1: power as the mayor. Some would argue more, but here 773 00:39:44,040 --> 00:39:47,799 Speaker 1: she is. We obviously now she's also Jewish. With the 774 00:39:47,920 --> 00:39:50,640 Speaker 1: anti Semitic mayor, you've got a Jewish City Council speaker 775 00:39:50,640 --> 00:39:53,480 Speaker 1: who will do everything to protect the Jewish community. 776 00:39:53,560 --> 00:39:57,040 Speaker 14: We obviously need to protect the First Amendment right to 777 00:39:57,280 --> 00:40:01,759 Speaker 14: peacefully protest. That is sacri but what we cannot have 778 00:40:02,080 --> 00:40:04,319 Speaker 14: is a situation which we've had in New York, and 779 00:40:04,320 --> 00:40:06,960 Speaker 14: we saw it at Parky Synagogue where people were trying 780 00:40:06,960 --> 00:40:11,120 Speaker 14: to worship that evening and they felt intimidated and harassed. 781 00:40:11,160 --> 00:40:13,800 Speaker 14: We are going to be doing legislation to create safe 782 00:40:13,840 --> 00:40:18,319 Speaker 14: perimeters around all houses of worship and around schools so that, yes, 783 00:40:18,360 --> 00:40:21,560 Speaker 14: of course people can peacefully protest, that's sacricying. But what 784 00:40:21,600 --> 00:40:24,799 Speaker 14: you cannot do is intimidate and harass people as they're 785 00:40:24,840 --> 00:40:27,400 Speaker 14: trying to go to school, go to their house of worship. 786 00:40:27,480 --> 00:40:29,440 Speaker 14: So we're really going to be aggressive about that. 787 00:40:29,840 --> 00:40:33,560 Speaker 1: Yeah, So in a way things might be better right 788 00:40:33,600 --> 00:40:36,400 Speaker 1: now than with Deblasio, because with the Blasio you had 789 00:40:36,400 --> 00:40:38,319 Speaker 1: a left wing kookie mayor and you had a left 790 00:40:38,320 --> 00:40:42,400 Speaker 1: wing kookie city council speaker. But now yeah, half of 791 00:40:42,440 --> 00:40:46,040 Speaker 1: the half of the duo is saying rational and somebody 792 00:40:46,120 --> 00:40:49,520 Speaker 1: alike men and is the new city council speaker. Now, 793 00:40:51,800 --> 00:40:54,160 Speaker 1: as I said, Mom, Donnie's like the third term of Deblasio. 794 00:40:54,520 --> 00:40:56,480 Speaker 1: And one thing about the Blasio it was bad, but 795 00:40:56,600 --> 00:41:01,640 Speaker 1: we got through it just fine. It wasn't survivable like 796 00:41:01,719 --> 00:41:05,120 Speaker 1: Deblasio and de Blasi was the same way, kind of lazy, 797 00:41:05,200 --> 00:41:07,120 Speaker 1: didn't really do anything, love to talk a lot, was 798 00:41:07,960 --> 00:41:11,960 Speaker 1: greate at speeches. Remember to Blasio never came to work. 799 00:41:12,000 --> 00:41:15,279 Speaker 1: He would wake up and go to Brooklyn to that 800 00:41:15,400 --> 00:41:17,319 Speaker 1: Jimmy Like. He'd be in that gym for a couple hours. 801 00:41:17,360 --> 00:41:19,799 Speaker 1: Then there was a little cafe coffee shop. He'd go 802 00:41:19,840 --> 00:41:21,759 Speaker 1: in there for a couple hours. He would show up 803 00:41:21,800 --> 00:41:24,080 Speaker 1: at city Hall about four o'clock, take a nap for 804 00:41:24,520 --> 00:41:27,319 Speaker 1: half an hour, and then leave and that was about it. Mom, 805 00:41:27,360 --> 00:41:29,160 Speaker 1: Donnie likes to be at city Hall and he loves 806 00:41:29,200 --> 00:41:32,480 Speaker 1: doing interviews, and he talks real fast and just keeps answering. 807 00:41:32,800 --> 00:41:34,759 Speaker 1: You can ask him anything, and then they come up 808 00:41:34,760 --> 00:41:39,640 Speaker 1: with these ideas. The one thing about these left wing types, 809 00:41:39,680 --> 00:41:42,279 Speaker 1: these Mom Donnie, They've got a million ideas from a 810 00:41:42,400 --> 00:41:44,319 Speaker 1: program for the homeless. They got a program for this, 811 00:41:44,360 --> 00:41:47,440 Speaker 1: they got pre k, they got daycare, all these ideas, 812 00:41:47,440 --> 00:41:50,040 Speaker 1: nothing ever really happens. They just talk about it. The 813 00:41:50,160 --> 00:41:51,360 Speaker 1: universal pre k. 814 00:41:52,239 --> 00:41:55,799 Speaker 13: Not only when we make pre k truly universal, but 815 00:41:55,880 --> 00:41:59,759 Speaker 13: expand this care to include all two and three year 816 00:41:59,800 --> 00:42:06,640 Speaker 13: old across the city. As the governor said, we will 817 00:42:06,640 --> 00:42:10,279 Speaker 13: deliver two care by working in partnership with childcare providers, 818 00:42:10,840 --> 00:42:14,720 Speaker 13: especially home based providers. 819 00:42:16,200 --> 00:42:18,880 Speaker 1: Yeah, they're cheering and chit it love that universal pre k, 820 00:42:19,000 --> 00:42:22,520 Speaker 1: not just pre K, universal pre k, and they get 821 00:42:22,520 --> 00:42:26,040 Speaker 1: all excited. And then just like in Minnesota, whenever they 822 00:42:26,040 --> 00:42:30,080 Speaker 1: do this stuff, these left wing Democrat programs a couple 823 00:42:30,120 --> 00:42:32,840 Speaker 1: of years ago is by an ALVII billions missing, billions 824 00:42:32,880 --> 00:42:36,200 Speaker 1: of dollars missing in pre k. Remember the the Blasio 825 00:42:36,400 --> 00:42:39,920 Speaker 1: Thrive NYC to help the homeless. A billion dollars went missing. 826 00:42:40,440 --> 00:42:42,520 Speaker 1: And of course the media is a Democrat. They never 827 00:42:42,560 --> 00:42:44,960 Speaker 1: looked to see what happened to it. Yeah, it's Minnesota. 828 00:42:45,000 --> 00:42:47,400 Speaker 1: That's why they're going crazy. Another reason they're going crazy 829 00:42:47,400 --> 00:42:52,440 Speaker 1: over this shooting. It gets that Somalia childcare, daycare, eighteen 830 00:42:52,480 --> 00:42:55,160 Speaker 1: billion missing, gets it out of the headlines, gets it 831 00:42:55,200 --> 00:42:57,600 Speaker 1: out of the news. Everybody forgets about it for a minute. 832 00:42:58,120 --> 00:43:03,280 Speaker 1: Luigi Manngioni going to court today, the big day in court, 833 00:43:03,320 --> 00:43:05,279 Speaker 1: there'd be a big fight, and his attorney's well, the 834 00:43:05,280 --> 00:43:06,759 Speaker 1: first thing you're trying to do is get the death 835 00:43:06,800 --> 00:43:11,440 Speaker 1: penalty off the table. That's the one thing. 836 00:43:11,480 --> 00:43:11,640 Speaker 3: Now. 837 00:43:11,640 --> 00:43:13,200 Speaker 1: The other thing is they think they can get some 838 00:43:13,280 --> 00:43:16,440 Speaker 1: of the evidence tossed out that got him arrested, although 839 00:43:16,440 --> 00:43:18,360 Speaker 1: I doubt that. Now here's the problem. A lot of 840 00:43:19,160 --> 00:43:22,480 Speaker 1: these experts that hunt for fugitives say, this kid was 841 00:43:22,560 --> 00:43:27,239 Speaker 1: really stupid about a lot of things. You know, it 842 00:43:27,320 --> 00:43:29,440 Speaker 1: was right out there, look out the window, right across 843 00:43:29,480 --> 00:43:31,160 Speaker 1: the street. Right there, that's where he shot the guy, 844 00:43:31,239 --> 00:43:34,160 Speaker 1: right across the street, the New York Kilton. It's on 845 00:43:34,200 --> 00:43:37,960 Speaker 1: the corner where the New York Kilton is, and we're 846 00:43:38,040 --> 00:43:40,040 Speaker 1: iHeart right here across the street. But you know, on 847 00:43:40,120 --> 00:43:44,799 Speaker 1: that corner in Manhattan, there's a surveillance camera everywhere, every inch. 848 00:43:45,120 --> 00:43:47,359 Speaker 1: It's true of all of Manhattan, all the New York City. 849 00:43:47,360 --> 00:43:50,520 Speaker 1: They got surveillance cameras everywhere. So if you shoot a 850 00:43:50,560 --> 00:43:53,040 Speaker 1: guy on that corner, there's going to be video of 851 00:43:53,120 --> 00:43:56,040 Speaker 1: you from every angle shooting the guy. So they got 852 00:43:56,120 --> 00:43:58,440 Speaker 1: him there. The other thing is if you're a fugitive 853 00:43:58,440 --> 00:44:00,479 Speaker 1: and you're on the lamb, if you're like a David 854 00:44:00,560 --> 00:44:05,880 Speaker 1: Jansen fugitive, if you're a Harrison Ford fugitive fleeing and 855 00:44:05,920 --> 00:44:08,799 Speaker 1: you're in these little small towns, you're supposed to go 856 00:44:08,840 --> 00:44:11,920 Speaker 1: into these little mom and pop places if you got 857 00:44:11,960 --> 00:44:15,200 Speaker 1: to get some food. You're not supposed to go into McDonald's. 858 00:44:16,160 --> 00:44:18,319 Speaker 1: And he made a huge mistake. He wasn't thinking if 859 00:44:18,360 --> 00:44:22,680 Speaker 1: you go into a McDonald's. This is a big national chain. 860 00:44:23,480 --> 00:44:25,200 Speaker 1: You know, you can go to any McDonald's anywhere in 861 00:44:25,440 --> 00:44:27,759 Speaker 1: They all look the same. And one thing they put 862 00:44:27,800 --> 00:44:32,200 Speaker 1: in all the McDonald's is extremely tight surveillance. They've got 863 00:44:32,280 --> 00:44:37,520 Speaker 1: cameras everywhere, every angle, so you can it's easy to 864 00:44:37,600 --> 00:44:40,279 Speaker 1: be on surveillance cameras if you're in McDonald's. You go 865 00:44:40,320 --> 00:44:42,840 Speaker 1: into a little mom and pop general store, they're probably 866 00:44:42,840 --> 00:44:46,440 Speaker 1: not so sophisticated tech wise. But he went into McDonald's 867 00:44:46,480 --> 00:44:48,839 Speaker 1: where there was a ton of surveillance cameras on him, 868 00:44:49,520 --> 00:44:52,480 Speaker 1: and you know, he's using a credit card every so 869 00:44:52,600 --> 00:44:54,839 Speaker 1: it just did make sense. It was easy to catch him. 870 00:44:55,200 --> 00:44:58,319 Speaker 1: The locals caught him. The people in McDonald's thought he 871 00:44:58,400 --> 00:45:02,000 Speaker 1: looked like the shooter, you know, with that one big 872 00:45:02,120 --> 00:45:05,839 Speaker 1: unibrow eyebrow, and the he's kind of a distinctive looking guy. 873 00:45:05,920 --> 00:45:08,160 Speaker 1: So they called the police. The police came arrested him. 874 00:45:08,280 --> 00:45:11,239 Speaker 1: So they're trying to get that tossed out and that 875 00:45:11,440 --> 00:45:13,759 Speaker 1: somehow he was illegally arrested or that he had the 876 00:45:13,800 --> 00:45:16,160 Speaker 1: wrong evidence. I don't know what they're gonna argue, but 877 00:45:16,239 --> 00:45:21,920 Speaker 1: they're gonna try. Hey, by the way, the Vice President 878 00:45:22,000 --> 00:45:25,120 Speaker 1: of Great press conference yesterday, Vice President Vance. But they've 879 00:45:25,120 --> 00:45:28,239 Speaker 1: also announced, you got this Somali fraud and it looks 880 00:45:28,280 --> 00:45:31,200 Speaker 1: like it's going to be even worse in California, even 881 00:45:31,239 --> 00:45:35,600 Speaker 1: worse in Illinois. So they've announced the Department of Justice 882 00:45:36,160 --> 00:45:39,600 Speaker 1: is creating a whole new Assistant Attorney General whose only 883 00:45:39,920 --> 00:45:43,600 Speaker 1: focus will be on this fraud. Start with Minnesota, go 884 00:45:43,680 --> 00:45:46,839 Speaker 1: after them, then go to California, then go to these 885 00:45:46,880 --> 00:45:50,600 Speaker 1: other states. So he'll be one attorney general assistant Attorney 886 00:45:50,680 --> 00:45:55,040 Speaker 1: general just focused on this fraud, on doing something about 887 00:45:55,080 --> 00:45:57,680 Speaker 1: it and try to stop it. And by the way, 888 00:45:57,719 --> 00:45:59,879 Speaker 1: we would, Ma'm donnie. You know, he went after Trump 889 00:46:00,080 --> 00:46:04,640 Speaker 1: like crazy on Venezuela, attacked him. Trump was asked about it. 890 00:46:04,840 --> 00:46:06,480 Speaker 1: He's done a lot of interviews, as he did a 891 00:46:06,480 --> 00:46:09,360 Speaker 1: great hour on Hannity last night. You'll probably hear it 892 00:46:09,400 --> 00:46:12,799 Speaker 1: on the Hannity Radio show today here on WOR he 893 00:46:12,840 --> 00:46:15,000 Speaker 1: did a New York Times. I don't know why he 894 00:46:15,040 --> 00:46:17,520 Speaker 1: does this The New York Times. These people hate his guts. 895 00:46:17,560 --> 00:46:19,880 Speaker 1: But he brought him into the Oval office game a 896 00:46:19,920 --> 00:46:22,600 Speaker 1: couple hours of his time. But they said, what about 897 00:46:22,680 --> 00:46:26,560 Speaker 1: Mam Donnie attacking you like crazy on Venezuela? And he 898 00:46:26,600 --> 00:46:28,839 Speaker 1: actually said, you know, the guy was here. We got 899 00:46:28,840 --> 00:46:32,360 Speaker 1: along great. I was really nice to him. And Trump says, quote, 900 00:46:32,440 --> 00:46:35,400 Speaker 1: he's got a great personality. He's a nice guy. His 901 00:46:35,520 --> 00:46:38,800 Speaker 1: policies are not good, but who knows, maybe he changes. 902 00:46:39,880 --> 00:46:42,120 Speaker 1: But he said the way he attacked me, I thought 903 00:46:42,120 --> 00:46:44,000 Speaker 1: the guy would wait at least three or four weeks 904 00:46:44,040 --> 00:46:46,840 Speaker 1: before going after me. We just had a great time together. 905 00:46:47,800 --> 00:46:49,719 Speaker 1: I thought it would take him a few weeks before 906 00:46:49,719 --> 00:46:52,319 Speaker 1: he goes But nope, he didn't wait at all. Went 907 00:46:52,400 --> 00:46:56,040 Speaker 1: right after him. Now you know who Jamie Diamond is. 908 00:46:56,080 --> 00:47:00,240 Speaker 1: He's the chairman of JP Morgan Chase. He's considered the 909 00:47:00,280 --> 00:47:06,080 Speaker 1: best CEO in America, top CEO. He's the greatest CEO 910 00:47:06,160 --> 00:47:11,600 Speaker 1: obviously in banking guess what he made last year. What 911 00:47:11,640 --> 00:47:13,120 Speaker 1: would you pay a guy like that? They had a 912 00:47:13,120 --> 00:47:14,799 Speaker 1: great year JP Morgan Chase. What do you think they 913 00:47:14,880 --> 00:47:18,000 Speaker 1: pay him? Well, last year he made seven one hundred 914 00:47:18,040 --> 00:47:23,520 Speaker 1: and seventy million dollars. Seven one hundred and seventy million dollars. Nah, 915 00:47:23,560 --> 00:47:26,000 Speaker 1: that sounds like a lot, but hey, after taxes, it's 916 00:47:26,000 --> 00:47:28,839 Speaker 1: only five hundred million. So now, actually there's a big 917 00:47:28,960 --> 00:47:32,719 Speaker 1: asterisk on this. They didn't pay him that. He made 918 00:47:32,760 --> 00:47:35,359 Speaker 1: about I think twenty five million in salary, which is 919 00:47:35,400 --> 00:47:38,560 Speaker 1: normal for a big CEO of a major corporation. You know, 920 00:47:38,600 --> 00:47:41,240 Speaker 1: if they trust you with a eight hundred billion dollar 921 00:47:41,280 --> 00:47:43,080 Speaker 1: company and you've got to run it, that's what you 922 00:47:43,160 --> 00:47:48,319 Speaker 1: get paid. And most of this money was he had 923 00:47:48,400 --> 00:47:51,640 Speaker 1: stock options. You know, if you really want to be fair, 924 00:47:52,239 --> 00:47:54,360 Speaker 1: pay the guy with stock options. That way, if he 925 00:47:54,440 --> 00:47:56,960 Speaker 1: makes the stock go up, he makes money. If he 926 00:47:57,000 --> 00:47:59,480 Speaker 1: screws up and the stock goes down, he loses money. 927 00:48:00,200 --> 00:48:00,520 Speaker 3: Well. 928 00:48:00,800 --> 00:48:03,319 Speaker 1: JP Morgan Chase had the greatest year ever. I think 929 00:48:03,320 --> 00:48:07,399 Speaker 1: they were the biggest stock in America, up thirty four 930 00:48:07,480 --> 00:48:10,760 Speaker 1: percent for the year, major stock up thirty four percent 931 00:48:11,480 --> 00:48:13,840 Speaker 1: for the year. So that's how he made that money. Now, 932 00:48:14,239 --> 00:48:16,760 Speaker 1: what would that mean JP Morgan Chase going up thirty 933 00:48:16,800 --> 00:48:20,160 Speaker 1: four percent? I don't know. I mean, I don't have 934 00:48:20,160 --> 00:48:21,560 Speaker 1: the numbers in front of me. But let's say that 935 00:48:21,560 --> 00:48:25,839 Speaker 1: means an extra three hundred billion. So if you made 936 00:48:25,880 --> 00:48:27,960 Speaker 1: somebody three hundred billion, hey, I guess you could get 937 00:48:27,960 --> 00:48:32,480 Speaker 1: paid seven hundred and seventy million. So I know you're 938 00:48:32,480 --> 00:48:34,719 Speaker 1: supposed to get mad at them. You know, in California 939 00:48:34,760 --> 00:48:36,680 Speaker 1: they hate these people. They in fact, they want to 940 00:48:36,719 --> 00:48:42,239 Speaker 1: have a five percent tax on all these billionaires, a 941 00:48:42,320 --> 00:48:45,240 Speaker 1: one time In other words, they would take five percent 942 00:48:45,280 --> 00:48:48,000 Speaker 1: of their money, not their income, all the money they 943 00:48:48,040 --> 00:48:51,680 Speaker 1: have in the bank, everything just sees five percent of it, 944 00:48:52,400 --> 00:48:54,440 Speaker 1: a one time tax, five percent. They're trying to get 945 00:48:54,440 --> 00:49:01,279 Speaker 1: this passed now. Some billionaires have already left. Six billionaires, 946 00:49:01,280 --> 00:49:05,560 Speaker 1: major figures, Peter Thiel, others have moved out of the state. 947 00:49:06,920 --> 00:49:08,839 Speaker 1: They've left because they don't want to pay Let's say 948 00:49:08,880 --> 00:49:16,160 Speaker 1: you got twenty billion your tax there would be uh 949 00:49:16,360 --> 00:49:18,239 Speaker 1: one billion. You'd have to hand over write a check 950 00:49:18,239 --> 00:49:20,319 Speaker 1: for one billion. So they're rather than pay it, they're 951 00:49:20,400 --> 00:49:23,600 Speaker 1: leaving six of them. There's a couple of staying. The 952 00:49:23,680 --> 00:49:27,560 Speaker 1: Navidia chairman said he has no plans to leave the 953 00:49:27,719 --> 00:49:31,600 Speaker 1: big another billionaires, a real estate guy, Sobrato. He's staying put. 954 00:49:31,800 --> 00:49:33,759 Speaker 1: But he said he doesn't expect this, but this thing 955 00:49:33,800 --> 00:49:36,040 Speaker 1: to pass. He doesn't think it'll pass. Hey, now, the 956 00:49:36,080 --> 00:49:38,840 Speaker 1: other things if you leave, like all these guys just 957 00:49:38,920 --> 00:49:41,359 Speaker 1: left right now, they're going to pay this. They're saying, 958 00:49:41,360 --> 00:49:44,120 Speaker 1: when they pass this tax, it'll be retroactive. Even if 959 00:49:44,120 --> 00:49:47,680 Speaker 1: you left, you still have to pay it. However, good 960 00:49:47,760 --> 00:49:50,600 Speaker 1: luck trying to collect that if the person is gone. Hey, well, 961 00:49:50,840 --> 00:49:51,600 Speaker 1: we'll take some calls. 962 00:49:51,640 --> 00:49:51,799 Speaker 3: Next. 963 00:49:51,880 --> 00:49:54,880 Speaker 1: Eight hundred three to two one zero seven ten is 964 00:49:54,880 --> 00:49:58,840 Speaker 1: the number eight hundred three to two one zero seven 965 00:49:58,960 --> 00:50:00,719 Speaker 1: ten set up on. 966 00:50:00,680 --> 00:50:04,440 Speaker 2: The iHeart radio app to wor to hear Mark live. 967 00:50:04,600 --> 00:50:08,279 Speaker 10: Set another from Mark's podcast to hear him anytime. 968 00:50:08,920 --> 00:50:15,680 Speaker 1: Now back to Mark Damon on woor Hey, let's take 969 00:50:15,719 --> 00:50:18,720 Speaker 1: some calls.

Did you have to show any 982 00:50:44,000 --> 00:50:45,280 Speaker 1: kinds of ID or anything? 983 00:50:45,360 --> 00:50:48,880 Speaker 9: Or I had my ID there. And then another time 984 00:50:49,320 --> 00:50:51,799 Speaker 9: when I was in the Bronx, I got a pamphlet 985 00:50:51,960 --> 00:50:55,319 Speaker 9: that was already checked off for the Democratic Party and 986 00:50:55,320 --> 00:50:56,759 Speaker 9: they asked me to sign it and mail it in. 987 00:50:56,920 --> 00:50:59,239 Speaker 9: But I'm a Republican. So they have other ways been 988 00:50:59,320 --> 00:51:02,239 Speaker 9: seating with the voting registrations there and everything else. 989 00:51:02,560 --> 00:51:04,719 Speaker 1: It's true now when you say go to the motor 990 00:51:04,800 --> 00:51:06,880 Speaker 1: vehicle department, that's like a nightmare. If you're in the 991 00:51:06,880 --> 00:51:08,439 Speaker 1: middle of New York City, you have a waiting line 992 00:51:08,440 --> 00:51:11,000 Speaker 1: for ten hours, there's sixty thousand people. But you're in 993 00:51:11,080 --> 00:51:13,760 Speaker 1: Dutchess County, right, there's probably no line. It's a quiet, 994 00:51:13,800 --> 00:51:14,480 Speaker 1: little Andy Green. 995 00:51:14,600 --> 00:51:17,840 Speaker 9: No, it's changing, Mark, No, it's changed. Oh, really saying 996 00:51:18,120 --> 00:51:21,680 Speaker 9: all over there's that urbanization all over. Now, that's what 997 00:51:21,800 --> 00:51:23,759 Speaker 9: Trump said that they wanted to do, and they did it. 998 00:51:24,120 --> 00:51:28,719 Speaker 1: Where are you in Dutchess County. Oh, I don't know 999 00:51:28,719 --> 00:51:31,040 Speaker 1: what that is, but it sounds fine, it sounds one. 1000 00:51:30,680 --> 00:51:33,200 Speaker 9: It's all oh, well, there you go. 1001 00:51:33,239 --> 00:51:38,279 Speaker 1: It's by Beakman.

Thanks for calling. 1003 00:51:40,320 --> 00:51:40,759 Speaker 3: Take care. 1004 00:51:41,120 --> 00:51:44,160 Speaker 1: Let's go to Vincent and Brooklyn. Vincent, how you. 1005 00:51:44,080 --> 00:51:48,520 Speaker 15: Doing, Good morning, Mark, Mark. I'm okay. I heard the 1006 00:51:48,560 --> 00:51:53,360 Speaker 15: clip you played of Julia mennon uh speaking about protecting 1007 00:51:53,400 --> 00:51:56,760 Speaker 15: the houses of worship. That's part of a larger interview 1008 00:51:56,840 --> 00:51:59,160 Speaker 15: that she gave with John Kats and Matit. He's on 1009 00:51:59,200 --> 00:52:03,040 Speaker 15: his Ball and show yesterday, and he directly asked her 1010 00:52:04,520 --> 00:52:08,000 Speaker 15: about the real estate and that the real estate community 1011 00:52:08,080 --> 00:52:11,399 Speaker 15: is really worried and the reason why he mentioned it, 1012 00:52:11,680 --> 00:52:17,080 Speaker 15: and she totally avoided the question. She's a co sponsor 1013 00:52:18,160 --> 00:52:23,000 Speaker 15: along with counselwoman Nurse, who came up with this law 1014 00:52:23,080 --> 00:52:27,600 Speaker 15: that you have to offer it to the nonprofit first 1015 00:52:27,920 --> 00:52:30,400 Speaker 15: and then secondly, and I don't know how you're going 1016 00:52:30,440 --> 00:52:33,480 Speaker 15: to go to contract with a private buyer. After you 1017 00:52:33,520 --> 00:52:36,560 Speaker 15: go to contract, you have to then re offer it 1018 00:52:36,600 --> 00:52:43,520 Speaker 15: to them. And she totally avoided the question because she 1019 00:52:43,760 --> 00:52:48,280 Speaker 15: is the co sponsor of that law. And Michael Goodwin 1020 00:52:48,719 --> 00:52:53,440 Speaker 15: a couple of weeks ago before she was inaugurated, Michael 1021 00:52:53,440 --> 00:52:58,800 Speaker 15: Goodwin talked about that and he said he was hoping 1022 00:52:58,880 --> 00:53:02,080 Speaker 15: that Eric Adams. What she didn't do with a veto 1023 00:53:02,520 --> 00:53:05,759 Speaker 15: vito the law because it wasn't veto proof they didn't 1024 00:53:05,760 --> 00:53:09,560 Speaker 15: have enough votes. But he says, I doubt that because 1025 00:53:10,000 --> 00:53:13,600 Speaker 15: she's a co sponsor of the law. So I heard 1026 00:53:13,600 --> 00:53:16,680 Speaker 15: her wiggling scream, you know, I wish you the best 1027 00:53:16,680 --> 00:53:21,560 Speaker 15: and special, especially with the houses of worship and the 1028 00:53:21,600 --> 00:53:25,560 Speaker 15: anti Semitic activity uh going on in this city. But 1029 00:53:26,800 --> 00:53:27,960 Speaker 15: she avoided the question. 1030 00:53:28,040 --> 00:53:32,200 Speaker 1: All right, she's a slimy politician, but she's more more 1031 00:53:32,239 --> 00:53:34,200 Speaker 1: of a centrist than you usually get. 1032 00:53:34,440 --> 00:53:37,879 Speaker 15: Oh no, definitely that other one, well, was it Adriana 1033 00:53:38,000 --> 00:53:42,080 Speaker 15: Adams who? Yeah, well she was a cut off the 1034 00:53:42,160 --> 00:53:45,759 Speaker 15: old Uh, she was a chip off the old man. 1035 00:53:47,120 --> 00:53:49,640 Speaker 1: It's been a long time since we had a normal middle. 1036 00:53:49,480 --> 00:53:52,839 Speaker 3: Of the road. It's good. It boats well, yeah, all. 1037 00:53:52,880 --> 00:53:55,600 Speaker 1: Right, Vincent, thanks for calling. It's just a good especially 1038 00:53:55,600 --> 00:53:59,000 Speaker 1: when I'm Donnie in office. You want a a centrist, 1039 00:53:59,160 --> 00:54:03,160 Speaker 1: moderate city council speaker, and she is like a not 1040 00:54:03,239 --> 00:54:07,320 Speaker 1: as good as Peter Valone, but like that sort of person. 1041 00:54:07,800 --> 00:54:11,160 Speaker 1: So hey, there's a lot of restaurants opening all over 1042 00:54:11,200 --> 00:54:13,920 Speaker 1: the place. Things are booming in New York. Buildings are 1043 00:54:13,920 --> 00:54:16,520 Speaker 1: going up skyscrapers everywhere. But we just lost one of 1044 00:54:16,520 --> 00:54:21,680 Speaker 1: the great landmark theater restaurants Broadway Times Square Cafe Un 1045 00:54:21,800 --> 00:54:26,640 Speaker 1: d'utois been there fifty years. A lot of famous faces 1046 00:54:26,640 --> 00:54:28,360 Speaker 1: in there, a lot of people in the theater district. 1047 00:54:28,400 --> 00:54:28,560 Speaker 12: You know. 1048 00:54:28,600 --> 00:54:32,799 Speaker 1: The big, big, big Broadway restaurants were Joe Allen Ors 1049 00:54:32,880 --> 00:54:37,080 Speaker 1: Sardis and that one it's closing. It doesn't say exactly why, 1050 00:54:37,239 --> 00:54:43,359 Speaker 1: just says too expensive expenses of skyrocketed rent is very 1051 00:54:43,600 --> 00:54:48,520 Speaker 1: very very expensive. Employees also added the ones hopping lunch 1052 00:54:48,560 --> 00:54:51,600 Speaker 1: business has dried up since the pandemic. A lot of 1053 00:54:51,600 --> 00:54:53,840 Speaker 1: people not going back to the office, so they go 1054 00:54:53,920 --> 00:54:56,120 Speaker 1: back like three days a week. So it wasn't enough 1055 00:54:56,120 --> 00:54:58,640 Speaker 1: to keep them going. But a lot of people went 1056 00:54:58,680 --> 00:55:01,400 Speaker 1: there through the years. Hey, when we come back. Bruce Blakeman, 1057 00:55:01,800 --> 00:55:06,399 Speaker 1: best county executive in America and the next governor of 1058 00:55:06,800 --> 00:55:08,880 Speaker 1: New York coming up.

Mark Simon, Well, 1060 00:55:15,840 --> 00:55:18,080 Speaker 1: Bruce Blakeman, I think will be the next governor of 1061 00:55:18,080 --> 00:55:20,719 Speaker 1: New York, and he's the most qualified person to be. 1062 00:55:21,239 --> 00:55:23,600 Speaker 1: You couldn't have a better choice for the next governor 1063 00:55:23,600 --> 00:55:25,920 Speaker 1: of New York. He's the Nassau County executive. He's the 1064 00:55:25,960 --> 00:55:29,680 Speaker 1: best county executive in America. And that's basically being a governor. 1065 00:55:29,719 --> 00:55:32,200 Speaker 1: It's the same kind of job. And he's with us 1066 00:55:32,280 --> 00:55:35,760 Speaker 1: right now.

We're the most overregulated state in the 1085 00:56:27,560 --> 00:56:31,120 Speaker 8: United States. You can complain about your tax bill because 1086 00:56:31,200 --> 00:56:35,320 Speaker 8: we are the most highly taxed state in the United States. 1087 00:56:35,680 --> 00:56:38,000 Speaker 8: I would love to hear from you, and we could 1088 00:56:38,120 --> 00:56:41,839 Speaker 8: use all the support out there. And we feel very, 1089 00:56:42,000 --> 00:56:45,319 Speaker 8: very comfortable that we have the momentum and we have 1090 00:56:45,440 --> 00:56:48,000 Speaker 8: the issues on our side, and we need a governor 1091 00:56:48,040 --> 00:56:51,200 Speaker 8: that actually cares about New Yorkers. It puts New Yorkers first, 1092 00:56:51,840 --> 00:56:55,680 Speaker 8: and someone that will make New Yorkers happy because most 1093 00:56:55,719 --> 00:56:58,400 Speaker 8: New Yorkers are miserable with Kathy Hoche's leadership. 1094 00:56:58,520 --> 00:57:01,319 Speaker 1: Yeah, hey, it comes to the ice shooting or whatever 1095 00:57:01,360 --> 00:57:03,719 Speaker 1: the issue. She seems to go very far to the left. 1096 00:57:03,800 --> 00:57:06,200 Speaker 1: Is she making a mistake going so far to the left. 1097 00:57:07,200 --> 00:57:09,440 Speaker 8: Well, she makes one mistake after the other. Let me 1098 00:57:09,560 --> 00:57:14,800 Speaker 8: let mean an example. Market weeks ago, we had a 1099 00:57:15,360 --> 00:57:20,760 Speaker 8: robbery in Nassau County of a jewelry store and through 1100 00:57:20,800 --> 00:57:23,560 Speaker 8: good police work with our Nasau County Police Department, who 1101 00:57:23,640 --> 00:57:28,720 Speaker 8: are the best, and working with our international law enforcement partners, 1102 00:57:28,720 --> 00:57:33,439 Speaker 8: we were able to track down the perpetrator and this 1103 00:57:33,520 --> 00:57:37,640 Speaker 8: person was arrested. And that's what we found when we 1104 00:57:37,720 --> 00:57:43,400 Speaker 8: arrested this individual, that this individual was remaining had an 1105 00:57:43,480 --> 00:57:51,160 Speaker 8: Irish passport, came to America from Mexico through Arizona with 1106 00:57:51,240 --> 00:57:55,240 Speaker 8: the Biden Harris policy of open borders, made their way 1107 00:57:55,960 --> 00:58:00,440 Speaker 8: to New York and then they engaged in a spree 1108 00:58:00,800 --> 00:58:05,560 Speaker 8: larsony and stealing from businesses and people here in the 1109 00:58:05,560 --> 00:58:10,280 Speaker 8: whole metropolitan area. So we arrested this guy and guess 1110 00:58:10,320 --> 00:58:16,000 Speaker 8: what a he had a New York State driver's life 1111 00:58:16,160 --> 00:58:21,520 Speaker 8: under Kathy Hoche's leadership, somebody who could have been vetted 1112 00:58:21,560 --> 00:58:27,560 Speaker 8: by just sending out a request from international law enforcement 1113 00:58:27,800 --> 00:58:31,880 Speaker 8: for a warrant search. We would find that places like 1114 00:58:31,920 --> 00:58:35,000 Speaker 8: the UK and other places had arrest warrants out for 1115 00:58:35,040 --> 00:58:37,479 Speaker 8: this guy. But we don't get that in New York. 1116 00:58:38,000 --> 00:58:41,040 Speaker 8: We give it to illegal aliens. We give it to 1117 00:58:41,080 --> 00:58:45,800 Speaker 8: people without a background chap. If we fingerprinted this individual 1118 00:58:46,120 --> 00:58:49,520 Speaker 8: before giving them a driver's license, we would have been 1119 00:58:49,560 --> 00:58:53,520 Speaker 8: able to apprehend them. And here's the worst part. When 1120 00:58:53,520 --> 00:58:56,920 Speaker 8: we arrested this individual, if Nassau County didn't have a 1121 00:58:56,960 --> 00:59:00,360 Speaker 8: comprehensive agreement with ICE, this guy would be back on 1122 00:59:00,400 --> 00:59:04,000 Speaker 8: the trip. Because of cashless bail, a judge wouldn't be 1123 00:59:04,040 --> 00:59:08,640 Speaker 8: able to hold an legal migrant with international lawrence, and 1124 00:59:08,880 --> 00:59:12,120 Speaker 8: this person would be released back into community to commit 1125 00:59:12,200 --> 00:59:15,080 Speaker 8: crimes against the people in the metropolitan area. But because 1126 00:59:15,120 --> 00:59:19,320 Speaker 8: we had the agreement with Ice, we were able to qualize. 1127 00:59:19,640 --> 00:59:22,960 Speaker 8: They picked this individual up and this individual is now 1128 00:59:23,680 --> 00:59:27,680 Speaker 8: on his way back to Mexico or Romania or Ireland 1129 00:59:27,720 --> 00:59:28,840 Speaker 8: or wherever he came from. 1130 00:59:28,880 --> 00:59:33,520 Speaker 1: Wow, that's one less Kathy Hochel voter. You've taken time exactly. 1131 00:59:34,120 --> 00:59:35,120 Speaker 8: That's why they're doing it. 1132 00:59:35,680 --> 00:59:37,840 Speaker 1: Hey, the election is a long way away, but you 1133 00:59:37,880 --> 00:59:39,760 Speaker 1: are working hard already. I know you wanted to see 1134 00:59:39,760 --> 00:59:41,760 Speaker 1: the Buffalo Bills game, but when you were up there, 1135 00:59:41,800 --> 00:59:44,920 Speaker 1: you did a lot of meeting with people, voters. They 1136 00:59:44,920 --> 00:59:46,440 Speaker 1: got out there with people. What did you think of 1137 00:59:46,520 --> 00:59:47,320 Speaker 1: upstate New York. 1138 00:59:48,760 --> 00:59:51,280 Speaker 8: Well, you know, the people up there are very warm. 1139 00:59:51,960 --> 00:59:55,040 Speaker 8: I spent a lot of time up there, not just 1140 00:59:55,080 --> 00:59:58,080 Speaker 8: in politics, but you know, I've been in business for 1141 00:59:58,120 --> 01:00:00,480 Speaker 8: many years, not only is a warrior, but but also 1142 01:00:00,560 --> 01:00:03,560 Speaker 8: as a consulting I've represented some of the largest companies 1143 01:00:03,560 --> 01:00:07,080 Speaker 8: in the United States. I was involved in the transportation industry, 1144 01:00:07,160 --> 01:00:09,680 Speaker 8: so I know the state very very well. And one 1145 01:00:10,000 --> 01:00:14,120 Speaker 8: of the things that was really disappointing to me was 1146 01:00:14,240 --> 01:00:17,160 Speaker 8: the fact that so many people were miserable. And when 1147 01:00:17,160 --> 01:00:19,680 Speaker 8: you ask them why they they're miserable, they say, first 1148 01:00:19,680 --> 01:00:23,560 Speaker 8: of all, our communities are no longer safe, and there's 1149 01:00:23,600 --> 01:00:28,080 Speaker 8: no economic development, nothing going on upstate except for a few, 1150 01:00:28,400 --> 01:00:30,919 Speaker 8: you know, a few different areas. There's a couple of 1151 01:00:31,000 --> 01:00:34,600 Speaker 8: projects going on. One is in the Onondaga County, but 1152 01:00:34,760 --> 01:00:38,560 Speaker 8: other than that, there's nothing going on. And we have 1153 01:00:39,240 --> 01:00:42,920 Speaker 8: one of the largest national natural gas reserves in the 1154 01:00:42,960 --> 01:00:46,880 Speaker 8: world in the southern tier of New York State, and 1155 01:00:47,080 --> 01:00:49,960 Speaker 8: we don't allow any drilling. We don't allow any fracking 1156 01:00:50,200 --> 01:00:53,920 Speaker 8: of that natural gas. So we have an energy shortage. 1157 01:00:54,040 --> 01:00:58,200 Speaker 8: We have expensive energy. Here's cheap energy right in our state, 1158 01:00:58,880 --> 01:01:03,760 Speaker 8: and we can't do anything. Across the border. In Pennsylvania, 1159 01:01:04,360 --> 01:01:09,360 Speaker 8: they allow fracking. They have businesses set up that are 1160 01:01:09,840 --> 01:01:14,160 Speaker 8: getting this natural gas out, making cheaper energy and creating 1161 01:01:14,200 --> 01:01:17,920 Speaker 8: prosperity and jobs for the area. In one side of 1162 01:01:17,960 --> 01:01:21,120 Speaker 8: the border on Pennsylvania, they're driving brand new Cadillacs. On 1163 01:01:21,200 --> 01:01:24,439 Speaker 8: the New York side, they're driving out driving around with rusty, old, 1164 01:01:25,120 --> 01:01:29,080 Speaker 8: five year old pickup trucks. So we need economic development 1165 01:01:29,120 --> 01:01:31,920 Speaker 8: in this state. We need to create job, we need 1166 01:01:31,960 --> 01:01:35,000 Speaker 8: to create prosperity. That's how you make it more affordable, 1167 01:01:35,000 --> 01:01:37,680 Speaker 8: putting more money in people's pockets so they can make 1168 01:01:37,800 --> 01:01:39,480 Speaker 8: choices on how they want to spend money. 1169 01:01:39,560 --> 01:01:42,520 Speaker 1: Yeah, well Bruce Blackman would be the best governor. You 1170 01:01:42,560 --> 01:01:45,680 Speaker 1: can go to Blakeman from New York dot com if 1171 01:01:45,680 --> 01:01:49,280 Speaker 1: you want to help. Blakemanfromnewyork dot com. Now they talk 1172 01:01:49,320 --> 01:01:51,919 Speaker 1: about affordability, yet the MTA just raise the fair which 1173 01:01:51,960 --> 01:01:54,920 Speaker 1: is upset a lot of people. Congestion, pricing, all that stuff. 1174 01:01:55,400 --> 01:01:57,280 Speaker 1: But you know how the MTA works, isn't it just 1175 01:01:57,360 --> 01:02:00,000 Speaker 1: a lot of waste Instead of raising fares, can't you 1176 01:02:00,240 --> 01:02:01,640 Speaker 1: just cut the costs. 1177 01:02:02,720 --> 01:02:04,560 Speaker 8: Of course, you can cut the cost you can make 1178 01:02:04,600 --> 01:02:08,400 Speaker 8: it more efficient, and you make it work for people. 1179 01:02:09,160 --> 01:02:13,400 Speaker 8: There's something going on here that you know, basically is 1180 01:02:13,480 --> 01:02:19,680 Speaker 8: a scam. The MPa gets three revenue sources lotly four. 1181 01:02:20,120 --> 01:02:24,880 Speaker 8: They get federal money, they get money from sales tax revenue, 1182 01:02:25,360 --> 01:02:30,640 Speaker 8: they get money from employer a roll taxes. And they 1183 01:02:30,680 --> 01:02:35,240 Speaker 8: have the revenue streams in addition to their fares. And 1184 01:02:35,320 --> 01:02:41,520 Speaker 8: they're always broke. They have a system that's broken. They 1185 01:02:41,520 --> 01:02:45,040 Speaker 8: have railroad stations here on Long Island that are falling 1186 01:02:45,040 --> 01:02:51,040 Speaker 8: into terrible disrepair. Nobody's riding the subways because unsafe. They 1187 01:02:51,080 --> 01:02:54,800 Speaker 8: want to cut back on things like having two conductors 1188 01:02:54,840 --> 01:02:58,360 Speaker 8: on a subway train, when two conductors on a subway 1189 01:02:58,400 --> 01:03:02,600 Speaker 8: train would bring more people into the subways because they 1190 01:03:02,600 --> 01:03:07,560 Speaker 8: would feel safer. And they don't invest in their equipment. 1191 01:03:07,920 --> 01:03:11,840 Speaker 8: They don't invest in their railroad and subway stations, and 1192 01:03:11,880 --> 01:03:16,200 Speaker 8: they are bloated bureaucracy with these big revenue streams and 1193 01:03:16,240 --> 01:03:19,720 Speaker 8: where does the money go. And Governor Hopell can't explain 1194 01:03:19,760 --> 01:03:23,600 Speaker 8: that it's her job to make sure that our transportation 1195 01:03:23,800 --> 01:03:27,200 Speaker 8: system runs efficiently. But people don't want to go on 1196 01:03:27,240 --> 01:03:30,200 Speaker 8: the subways because they're not safe. People out on Long 1197 01:03:30,240 --> 01:03:32,680 Speaker 8: Island or in the Hudson Valley, they don't want to 1198 01:03:32,760 --> 01:03:37,200 Speaker 8: use the railroads because the stations are falling into terrible disrepair. 1199 01:03:38,000 --> 01:03:41,959 Speaker 8: And we have to have a governor who understands transportation 1200 01:03:42,160 --> 01:03:45,600 Speaker 8: like I do. Understands that you have to market these 1201 01:03:45,920 --> 01:03:48,840 Speaker 8: transportation sources. They have to be safe, they have to 1202 01:03:48,880 --> 01:03:52,280 Speaker 8: be clean, they have to be inviting to people. Otherwise 1203 01:03:52,280 --> 01:03:54,200 Speaker 8: people are just going to get in their car. Yeah, 1204 01:03:54,200 --> 01:03:56,160 Speaker 8: and that's why we have a traffic problem the way 1205 01:03:56,160 --> 01:03:57,600 Speaker 8: we do in the metropolitan area. 1206 01:03:57,760 --> 01:04:00,560 Speaker 1: And Bruce Blakeman has done all this stuff that county's 1207 01:04:00,840 --> 01:04:03,200 Speaker 1: it's basically being a governor. When you're a county executive 1208 01:04:03,240 --> 01:04:07,280 Speaker 1: and he's cleaned up everything, crime and budget, all that stuff. 1209 01:04:07,440 --> 01:04:09,920 Speaker 1: Now we only got like a minute left. What a 1210 01:04:10,000 --> 01:04:12,280 Speaker 1: chance does the Republican have to win? What was the 1211 01:04:12,360 --> 01:04:14,800 Speaker 1: demographic makeup and party makeup of the state. 1212 01:04:15,960 --> 01:04:19,800 Speaker 8: Yeah, so I won reelection in a county that's larger 1213 01:04:19,840 --> 01:04:22,840 Speaker 8: than eight to ten states in population, with one hundred 1214 01:04:22,840 --> 01:04:26,640 Speaker 8: and ten thousand more Democrats, which meetings. In order for 1215 01:04:26,680 --> 01:04:29,240 Speaker 8: me to win, I have to depend on not just 1216 01:04:29,360 --> 01:04:35,440 Speaker 8: Republican and conservative voters, but independent voters and crossover Democrats 1217 01:04:35,480 --> 01:04:38,440 Speaker 8: what I call common sense Democrats. We want in the 1218 01:04:38,520 --> 01:04:41,800 Speaker 8: landslide and the last election because we built a coalition 1219 01:04:42,440 --> 01:04:44,760 Speaker 8: not based on what we disagree upon, but what we 1220 01:04:44,800 --> 01:04:49,000 Speaker 8: agree upon. Everybody wants safer communities. Everybody wants more jobs, 1221 01:04:49,280 --> 01:04:53,840 Speaker 8: everybody wants more pay, everybody wants better benefits and healthcare, 1222 01:04:54,160 --> 01:04:57,720 Speaker 8: and they're not getting it from our date. So they 1223 01:04:57,840 --> 01:04:59,600 Speaker 8: like what I've done here in Nassau County. It's the 1224 01:04:59,640 --> 01:05:02,840 Speaker 8: safety county in America. Each magazine said we're the most 1225 01:05:02,840 --> 01:05:05,720 Speaker 8: desirable place to live in New York State. I can 1226 01:05:05,840 --> 01:05:09,880 Speaker 8: take those principles and bring it statewide, including the City 1227 01:05:09,880 --> 01:05:12,760 Speaker 8: of New York, and make it an affordable place to live, 1228 01:05:13,560 --> 01:05:16,600 Speaker 8: place where you're safer and a place where your kids 1229 01:05:16,640 --> 01:05:18,840 Speaker 8: and your grandchildren are going to want to stay here 1230 01:05:18,880 --> 01:05:19,400 Speaker 8: and raise there. 1231 01:05:19,600 --> 01:05:20,040 Speaker 3: This here. 1232 01:05:20,280 --> 01:05:23,320 Speaker 1: Yeah, well, Bruce Blakeman would be a great governor. I 1233 01:05:23,320 --> 01:05:25,120 Speaker 1: can't think of anybody better for it.

That's a Bruce Blakeman who I think, 1242 01:05:48,760 --> 01:05:50,600 Speaker 1: I know he should be the governor. I think he 1243 01:05:50,640 --> 01:05:53,440 Speaker 1: will be the next governor of New York. Hey, don't 1244 01:05:53,440 --> 01:05:57,400 Speaker 1: forget tonight Jimmy Fayala excellent show.

It'll be all 1250 01:06:16,000 --> 01:06:19,120 Speaker 1: over ice murdering people left and right. The media trying 1251 01:06:19,120 --> 01:06:22,400 Speaker 1: to spin that every which way they can. So Vice 1252 01:06:22,400 --> 01:06:25,200 Speaker 1: President Vance did a press conference yesterday where he talked 1253 01:06:25,240 --> 01:06:25,720 Speaker 1: about that. 1254 01:06:25,760 --> 01:06:29,320 Speaker 10: What is I'm sorry, guys, what's going on here? You 1255 01:06:29,480 --> 01:06:33,040 Speaker 10: guys are meant to report the truth. How have you 1256 01:06:33,120 --> 01:06:37,240 Speaker 10: let yourself become agents of propaganda of a radical fringe 1257 01:06:37,440 --> 01:06:39,680 Speaker 10: that's making it harder for us to enforce our laws. 1258 01:06:39,840 --> 01:06:42,880 Speaker 10: You just asked me a question that presumed that the 1259 01:06:42,960 --> 01:06:45,880 Speaker 10: reason why this woman died is because she was engaged 1260 01:06:45,920 --> 01:06:48,480 Speaker 10: in legitimate protests. She tried to run somebody over with 1261 01:06:48,520 --> 01:06:50,920 Speaker 10: her car, and the guy defended himself when that happened. 1262 01:06:51,160 --> 01:06:51,520 Speaker 3: Yeah. 1263 01:06:51,600 --> 01:06:54,360 Speaker 1: Now, once again, let me repeat. If you talk to 1264 01:06:54,400 --> 01:06:57,680 Speaker 1: the top finest people in law enforcement off the record, 1265 01:06:57,720 --> 01:06:59,520 Speaker 1: they've all kind of said the same thing to me. 1266 01:06:59,560 --> 01:07:06,120 Speaker 1: The shooting is justified, it's legal. But they also said, 1267 01:07:06,520 --> 01:07:09,160 Speaker 1: you didn't have to fire those shots. I mean, you 1268 01:07:09,240 --> 01:07:14,480 Speaker 1: can legally, and it's borderline, but a really, really, really 1269 01:07:14,520 --> 01:07:17,600 Speaker 1: good cop might have even though he got out of 1270 01:07:17,600 --> 01:07:20,480 Speaker 1: the way of the car. Just let it go. We'll 1271 01:07:20,520 --> 01:07:24,080 Speaker 1: catch her later. But if you do fire, it's totally 1272 01:07:24,160 --> 01:07:27,120 Speaker 1: legal and justified. He was in front of the car. 1273 01:07:27,160 --> 01:07:29,120 Speaker 1: They don't show you the videos from the front where 1274 01:07:29,120 --> 01:07:30,400 Speaker 1: you see the car hit him. 1275 01:07:30,760 --> 01:07:31,720 Speaker 3: You see the videos. 1276 01:07:31,520 --> 01:07:33,480 Speaker 1: Where he's on the side firing into the side. But 1277 01:07:33,520 --> 01:07:35,080 Speaker 1: if you watch the video, it's up on my Twitter 1278 01:07:35,120 --> 01:07:37,040 Speaker 1: if you want to watch it. In the video from 1279 01:07:37,080 --> 01:07:39,200 Speaker 1: the front, the car hits him and knocks him to 1280 01:07:39,240 --> 01:07:43,280 Speaker 1: the side, and the first shot he fired went through 1281 01:07:43,320 --> 01:07:46,520 Speaker 1: the front windshield, which means he was in front of 1282 01:07:46,520 --> 01:07:49,080 Speaker 1: the car. She was heading right at him. You couldn't 1283 01:07:49,320 --> 01:07:51,360 Speaker 1: fire a shot through the front windshield if you were 1284 01:07:51,360 --> 01:07:54,360 Speaker 1: on the side of the car. So there'll be no 1285 01:07:54,760 --> 01:07:57,439 Speaker 1: criminal problem for him. But you're going to hear about 1286 01:07:57,440 --> 01:08:00,360 Speaker 1: this all weekend long, and they'll keep doing this for 1287 01:08:00,560 --> 01:08:02,960 Speaker 1: weeks and weeks.
