1 00:00:00,680 --> 00:00:03,800 Speaker 1: You just heard the news. Now you'll find out what 2 00:00:03,920 --> 00:00:10,760 Speaker 1: it all means. Smart simone on seven tenor. 3 00:00:14,720 --> 00:00:18,200 Speaker 2: Oh I'm here, I made it. I'm only a couple 4 00:00:18,200 --> 00:00:19,799 Speaker 2: of blocks away from It's easy to get well, I 5 00:00:19,800 --> 00:00:21,840 Speaker 2: wouldn't say it was easy to get here. Even walking 6 00:00:22,480 --> 00:00:25,360 Speaker 2: just a block or two is not easy. It is 7 00:00:25,400 --> 00:00:29,560 Speaker 2: a mess outside. It is also eerie and gloomy outside. 8 00:00:29,640 --> 00:00:33,800 Speaker 2: It's pandemic like in that. If you do walk outside, 9 00:00:33,800 --> 00:00:37,600 Speaker 2: there's no traffic. I mean there's a car here and there, 10 00:00:38,440 --> 00:00:41,640 Speaker 2: and there are no pedestrians either. That's the eerie part. 11 00:00:42,080 --> 00:00:44,559 Speaker 2: You might look way down. This is the middle of Manhattan. 12 00:00:45,800 --> 00:00:47,479 Speaker 2: You may look at a block or two down and 13 00:00:47,479 --> 00:00:50,200 Speaker 2: see one person walking into It's just like the pandemic. 14 00:00:50,240 --> 00:00:53,920 Speaker 2: It's very very quiet out there. The snow is messy. 15 00:00:54,000 --> 00:00:56,640 Speaker 2: It's wet snow. It's not the dry snow that now. 16 00:00:56,640 --> 00:00:59,000 Speaker 2: The wet snow is worse, harder to shovel, it's heavier, 17 00:00:59,440 --> 00:01:03,640 Speaker 2: and when it's the tree branches or power poles, it 18 00:01:03,680 --> 00:01:07,640 Speaker 2: can get so heavy it can actually cause them to 19 00:01:07,680 --> 00:01:12,840 Speaker 2: break snap. That'shere. Get these power outages. It's a power outage. Wise, 20 00:01:12,840 --> 00:01:16,880 Speaker 2: you got six hundred and forty thousand people without power. 21 00:01:16,920 --> 00:01:18,720 Speaker 2: That's up and down the East coast, all the way 22 00:01:18,720 --> 00:01:23,639 Speaker 2: down to Virginia. Now Here in this area New York State, 23 00:01:23,800 --> 00:01:28,759 Speaker 2: including New York City, Nassau, Suffolk seventeen thousand people without power. 24 00:01:28,959 --> 00:01:33,520 Speaker 2: And that's mostly Nasau, Suffolk Queens, mostly Long Island, almost 25 00:01:33,600 --> 00:01:36,160 Speaker 2: all of it is. Long Island seventeen thousand without power. 26 00:01:36,520 --> 00:01:42,800 Speaker 2: Connecticut thirteen thousand without power. New Jersey. Listen to this number. 27 00:01:42,840 --> 00:01:46,399 Speaker 2: One hundred and thirty seven thousand without power, one hundred 28 00:01:46,440 --> 00:01:50,240 Speaker 2: and thirty seven thousand without power. The wind, the heavy snow, 29 00:01:50,320 --> 00:01:54,840 Speaker 2: the wet snow, you got the roads closed. In Manhattan, 30 00:01:55,040 --> 00:01:59,040 Speaker 2: roads are officially closed except for emergency travel. That's until 31 00:01:59,120 --> 00:02:02,680 Speaker 2: noon today. Out Long Island. I think I'm not sure. 32 00:02:02,680 --> 00:02:06,600 Speaker 2: I think NASA is eleven. They're talking about moving at 33 00:02:06,600 --> 00:02:10,560 Speaker 2: to one o'clock. The snow is lessening right now. It's 34 00:02:10,600 --> 00:02:13,600 Speaker 2: still snowing, but it's much much lighter snow. And that 35 00:02:13,720 --> 00:02:16,840 Speaker 2: light snow will continue till about five or six o'clock today. 36 00:02:17,400 --> 00:02:19,919 Speaker 2: Should be all over by five thirty six o'clock that'll 37 00:02:19,919 --> 00:02:22,160 Speaker 2: be the end of it. But when it's over, it's 38 00:02:22,200 --> 00:02:24,880 Speaker 2: gonna be a lot of snow. We got fifteen inches 39 00:02:25,320 --> 00:02:28,960 Speaker 2: in New York City fifteen inches. You got eighteen inches 40 00:02:30,160 --> 00:02:34,200 Speaker 2: in suburbs. New Jersey got about eighteen inches some parts. 41 00:02:34,400 --> 00:02:37,679 Speaker 2: It depends where you are in New Jersey. South shore 42 00:02:37,680 --> 00:02:40,520 Speaker 2: of Long Island got the worst, Icelip reporting two feet 43 00:02:40,560 --> 00:02:45,000 Speaker 2: of snow. The Hampton's eighteen inches of snow. This was 44 00:02:45,080 --> 00:02:48,600 Speaker 2: unusual in that usually when you're along the coast you 45 00:02:48,680 --> 00:02:50,959 Speaker 2: get off easier. The more you go inland, the worse 46 00:02:51,040 --> 00:02:53,680 Speaker 2: the snow. This was different. This was a storm that 47 00:02:53,840 --> 00:02:57,360 Speaker 2: hugged the shoreline, so the closer word to the shore, 48 00:02:57,520 --> 00:03:01,240 Speaker 2: the worse it was snow wise, that's unusual. Flights are 49 00:03:01,240 --> 00:03:04,200 Speaker 2: canceled everywhere. There are no flights in or out of 50 00:03:04,200 --> 00:03:07,560 Speaker 2: any of our airports, and they've been canceled for so 51 00:03:07,840 --> 00:03:10,400 Speaker 2: many hours and it's going to be a day or 52 00:03:10,400 --> 00:03:12,840 Speaker 2: two so it may not get back to normal till 53 00:03:12,880 --> 00:03:16,280 Speaker 2: Wednesday or Thursday. So that's going to be a mess 54 00:03:16,280 --> 00:03:19,919 Speaker 2: if you gotta fly anywhere. Trains, well, you got Metro 55 00:03:20,040 --> 00:03:22,560 Speaker 2: North is Metro North is pretty good. They're actually running. 56 00:03:23,000 --> 00:03:25,400 Speaker 2: I mean there's some delays and not all the trains, 57 00:03:25,520 --> 00:03:30,639 Speaker 2: but Metro North seems to be operating okay. Ther Long 58 00:03:30,680 --> 00:03:33,480 Speaker 2: Island Railroad of course a total mess. It's mostly shut down, 59 00:03:33,600 --> 00:03:35,760 Speaker 2: believe or not. The New York City subways are running. 60 00:03:35,840 --> 00:03:40,200 Speaker 2: They're open. Couple of lines are suspended, but plenty of 61 00:03:40,200 --> 00:03:44,600 Speaker 2: subways are running with delays and some low express are 62 00:03:44,640 --> 00:03:46,600 Speaker 2: now local that kind of stuff, but they're but they're running. 63 00:03:46,600 --> 00:03:51,000 Speaker 2: Bridges are closed. Those bridges should reopen later today. The 64 00:03:51,040 --> 00:03:52,840 Speaker 2: bridges are closed not because of the snow. You can 65 00:03:52,880 --> 00:03:56,120 Speaker 2: plow the snow, but the bridges are closed because of 66 00:03:56,160 --> 00:03:59,280 Speaker 2: the winds. Forty to fifty sixty mile an hour winds. 67 00:03:59,280 --> 00:04:01,160 Speaker 2: You got to close the bridges. But that wind is 68 00:04:01,240 --> 00:04:03,920 Speaker 2: dying down. It should be pretty much the wind should 69 00:04:03,920 --> 00:04:07,240 Speaker 2: be pretty much over by tonight. National Guard has been 70 00:04:07,240 --> 00:04:11,600 Speaker 2: called out. You got part of the problem is you're 71 00:04:11,600 --> 00:04:14,000 Speaker 2: trying to get through this snowstorm with this kind of leadership. 72 00:04:14,000 --> 00:04:17,680 Speaker 2: You got Mamdani, you got HOCl you got Mikey Cheryl. 73 00:04:18,320 --> 00:04:21,480 Speaker 2: The schools are closed, and for the first time in 74 00:04:21,600 --> 00:04:24,440 Speaker 2: I think seven years, they're really closed. It's none of 75 00:04:24,480 --> 00:04:28,839 Speaker 2: that remote learning, which is a terrible day for parents 76 00:04:28,839 --> 00:04:30,599 Speaker 2: because they love when the kids go to school for 77 00:04:30,880 --> 00:04:33,480 Speaker 2: all those hours. Now you're stuck at home with the kids. 78 00:04:33,480 --> 00:04:35,200 Speaker 2: If you've got the remote learning at least it keeps 79 00:04:35,240 --> 00:04:37,719 Speaker 2: them a little busy, but no remote learning. It's a 80 00:04:37,760 --> 00:04:41,320 Speaker 2: real snow day, an actual old fashioned schools closed snow day. 81 00:04:41,320 --> 00:04:42,440 Speaker 2: Here's Mayor mom, Donnie. 82 00:04:42,520 --> 00:04:45,040 Speaker 3: This will be New York City's first old school snow 83 00:04:45,080 --> 00:04:49,520 Speaker 3: day since twenty nineteen. The state requires us to conduct 84 00:04:49,520 --> 00:04:53,479 Speaker 3: one hundred and eighty days of education in a calendar year. However, 85 00:04:53,640 --> 00:04:55,799 Speaker 3: we believe that there are a unique set of extenuating 86 00:04:55,880 --> 00:05:00,000 Speaker 3: circumstances for tomorrow's education. We shared this with the State 87 00:05:00,240 --> 00:05:03,160 Speaker 3: Education Commissioner earlier this morning, and she has granted us 88 00:05:03,200 --> 00:05:06,599 Speaker 3: a waiver for which we are incredibly thankful. And to 89 00:05:06,680 --> 00:05:09,920 Speaker 3: kids across New York City, you have a very serious mission. 90 00:05:09,920 --> 00:05:14,320 Speaker 3: If you choose to accept it, stay cozy. 91 00:05:14,400 --> 00:05:18,560 Speaker 2: So you know, if you live in the suburbs, if 92 00:05:18,600 --> 00:05:20,000 Speaker 2: you really know what you're doing, you got one of 93 00:05:20,000 --> 00:05:24,080 Speaker 2: those snow shoveling services. It's usually also the landscaping serve, 94 00:05:24,120 --> 00:05:25,960 Speaker 2: but they come out every time it's snow boom, they 95 00:05:25,960 --> 00:05:28,200 Speaker 2: come out. Eighteen guys get out of the truck shovling. Now, 96 00:05:28,240 --> 00:05:29,719 Speaker 2: if you don't know what you do, and you hire 97 00:05:29,760 --> 00:05:33,360 Speaker 2: a neighborhood kid, although that's tough now, I used to 98 00:05:33,400 --> 00:05:35,400 Speaker 2: be able to hire the neighborhood. Yeah, twenty dollars to 99 00:05:35,440 --> 00:05:37,320 Speaker 2: shovel might drive. Now it's like two hundred and they 100 00:05:37,320 --> 00:05:39,720 Speaker 2: don't want to do it. But believe it or not, 101 00:05:39,760 --> 00:05:42,240 Speaker 2: New York City sort of operates this way. The sanitation 102 00:05:42,440 --> 00:05:46,760 Speaker 2: department cleans the snow, but they hire snow shovelers. I 103 00:05:46,760 --> 00:05:50,320 Speaker 2: don't know why the hell they do this, and they 104 00:05:50,360 --> 00:05:52,679 Speaker 2: do it for each storm. They put like ads everywhere 105 00:05:52,680 --> 00:05:55,279 Speaker 2: where we need snow shovelers. It's nineteen dollars an hour, 106 00:05:56,839 --> 00:06:01,120 Speaker 2: and they need about four thousand of these freelance amateur snowshovels. 107 00:06:01,120 --> 00:06:04,400 Speaker 2: Four thousand. Well, they only got fourteen hundred this time. 108 00:06:04,680 --> 00:06:06,720 Speaker 2: I think part of the problem is nineteen dollars an 109 00:06:06,720 --> 00:06:10,800 Speaker 2: hour doesn't attract a lot of people nowadays in the 110 00:06:10,839 --> 00:06:15,400 Speaker 2: middle of a snowstorm, and the mayor getting a lot 111 00:06:15,400 --> 00:06:19,440 Speaker 2: of flak because he's requiring two types of ID, two 112 00:06:19,480 --> 00:06:22,560 Speaker 2: photo IDs, a birth certificate. Of course, when you want 113 00:06:22,560 --> 00:06:25,880 Speaker 2: to vote there, do they think photo ID is racist? 114 00:06:26,520 --> 00:06:29,920 Speaker 2: It's suppressing the vote, it's racist. But they're doing it 115 00:06:29,960 --> 00:06:33,279 Speaker 2: for snow shoveling. And of course he got all kinds 116 00:06:33,320 --> 00:06:35,480 Speaker 2: of flak all over the place for it and ridiculed 117 00:06:35,480 --> 00:06:39,600 Speaker 2: for it. Now the difference is with the snowshoveling, they 118 00:06:39,640 --> 00:06:43,240 Speaker 2: have to issue you a paycheck. You're actually put on 119 00:06:43,279 --> 00:06:46,520 Speaker 2: the payroll, and that's a federal requirement to pay somebody 120 00:06:47,120 --> 00:06:49,200 Speaker 2: tax purposes, all that stuff. You have to have all 121 00:06:49,240 --> 00:06:53,520 Speaker 2: that id But Mom Donnie not able to attract a 122 00:06:53,560 --> 00:06:54,680 Speaker 2: normal amount of snowsholls. 123 00:06:54,680 --> 00:06:57,880 Speaker 3: So the starting pay for emergency snowshovelers is about nineteen 124 00:06:57,960 --> 00:07:01,480 Speaker 3: dollars an hour. After they work four hours through a week, 125 00:07:01,720 --> 00:07:04,080 Speaker 3: that then increases to about twenty eight dollars an hour. 126 00:07:04,480 --> 00:07:07,200 Speaker 3: And thanks to the work of DS and Y and 127 00:07:07,320 --> 00:07:10,440 Speaker 3: so many others, we have expanded the pool of emergency 128 00:07:10,480 --> 00:07:13,800 Speaker 3: snow shovelers. In the previous storm, we were looking at 129 00:07:13,800 --> 00:07:16,560 Speaker 3: about five hundred emergency snow shovelers. Now that pool has 130 00:07:16,600 --> 00:07:18,440 Speaker 3: expanded to about fourteen hundred. 131 00:07:18,840 --> 00:07:20,800 Speaker 2: You got to admit, the guy really sounds like he 132 00:07:20,840 --> 00:07:22,320 Speaker 2: knows what he's doing. But when he talks, he gets 133 00:07:22,400 --> 00:07:23,880 Speaker 2: us nineteen dollars an hour and then to move to 134 00:07:23,880 --> 00:07:26,520 Speaker 2: twenty eight dollars. And we've explained the program about he 135 00:07:26,640 --> 00:07:30,120 Speaker 2: really sounds like he knows what he's doing. I mean, 136 00:07:30,120 --> 00:07:31,360 Speaker 2: if he has to actually do it. He didn't know 137 00:07:31,360 --> 00:07:33,840 Speaker 2: what the ally's doing. But boy, when it comes to talking, 138 00:07:33,920 --> 00:07:36,600 Speaker 2: this guy sounds like he knows what he's doing. If 139 00:07:36,600 --> 00:07:38,320 Speaker 2: you wanted to actually do it, well that's a whole 140 00:07:38,320 --> 00:07:40,160 Speaker 2: other story. It's not going to get done. Then you 141 00:07:40,240 --> 00:07:44,280 Speaker 2: got this governor New Jersey, Mikey Cheryl with that that 142 00:07:44,640 --> 00:07:46,120 Speaker 2: she never doesn't sound like a governor. 143 00:07:46,320 --> 00:07:48,560 Speaker 4: We need to be prepared, We need to be safe, 144 00:07:48,920 --> 00:07:52,720 Speaker 4: get water, get all of your charging done with your devices, 145 00:07:53,000 --> 00:07:53,960 Speaker 4: stay off the roads. 146 00:07:54,560 --> 00:07:56,680 Speaker 2: Okay, that one loves better. Sometimes she gets a little, 147 00:07:58,960 --> 00:08:02,680 Speaker 2: but we should talk. Look who we got for a governor. 148 00:08:02,760 --> 00:08:05,720 Speaker 4: We are asking you to just stay home. Stay home. 149 00:08:05,760 --> 00:08:08,600 Speaker 4: There is a nice diversion called the Olympics going on. 150 00:08:08,720 --> 00:08:11,400 Speaker 4: There's an important hockey game, the US versus ken I 151 00:08:11,440 --> 00:08:13,920 Speaker 4: believe around eight am. So stay home. 152 00:08:15,440 --> 00:08:17,640 Speaker 2: That's a diversion at Olympics. Would they pay like two 153 00:08:17,720 --> 00:08:20,440 Speaker 2: billion for the rights? It's a diversion. Isn't the Olympics over? 154 00:08:21,360 --> 00:08:23,880 Speaker 2: Is it still on? I don't know. I don't want 155 00:08:23,880 --> 00:08:25,960 Speaker 2: see Olympics, but I know the hockey was the big thing. 156 00:08:26,000 --> 00:08:28,920 Speaker 2: But I guess it's still on. But Hochel, it's a 157 00:08:28,960 --> 00:08:31,040 Speaker 2: great chance to you look like a governor, you get 158 00:08:31,080 --> 00:08:32,720 Speaker 2: to put on that bomber jacket. 159 00:08:32,720 --> 00:08:36,680 Speaker 4: And this forecast had shifted dramatically, and once again New 160 00:08:36,800 --> 00:08:39,360 Speaker 4: York State is in the crosshairs of a very dangerous, 161 00:08:39,840 --> 00:08:43,200 Speaker 4: fast moving, potentially life threatening winter storm. 162 00:08:44,080 --> 00:08:46,600 Speaker 2: Yeah, let me explain something because if you were listening 163 00:08:46,640 --> 00:08:48,400 Speaker 2: to me Friday, and I said that the storm is 164 00:08:48,400 --> 00:08:51,480 Speaker 2: going to be about one to three inches, and all them, 165 00:08:51,920 --> 00:08:53,840 Speaker 2: the good Weather Service. There's a lot of junk weather 166 00:08:53,880 --> 00:08:56,160 Speaker 2: services out there aren't very accurate, but the really good 167 00:08:56,160 --> 00:08:59,480 Speaker 2: ones ACI Weather, Weather Channel, they're pretty good, I mean 168 00:09:00,000 --> 00:09:03,319 Speaker 2: really accurate. It was one to three inches and then 169 00:09:05,000 --> 00:09:07,199 Speaker 2: and some people think, well the weather they like to 170 00:09:07,280 --> 00:09:09,840 Speaker 2: hype it up. They're always wrong. They're not really wrong. 171 00:09:09,840 --> 00:09:11,600 Speaker 2: You can't find a case of them being wrong or 172 00:09:11,880 --> 00:09:15,800 Speaker 2: hyping it up. What happens is a storm changes course. 173 00:09:16,600 --> 00:09:18,400 Speaker 2: It could go this way, it could go that way, 174 00:09:18,480 --> 00:09:20,480 Speaker 2: even up to a day before. It can change course, 175 00:09:20,600 --> 00:09:22,440 Speaker 2: or it can slow down or speed up come at 176 00:09:22,440 --> 00:09:26,120 Speaker 2: a different time, but it's mostly changing course. On Friday, 177 00:09:26,160 --> 00:09:28,640 Speaker 2: the course was that it would go way offshore and 178 00:09:28,679 --> 00:09:31,760 Speaker 2: miss us we'd get a little bit of it on 179 00:09:31,880 --> 00:09:34,920 Speaker 2: the fringe, but it changed course and was heading right 180 00:09:34,960 --> 00:09:37,360 Speaker 2: for US. So the problem is people check the weather 181 00:09:37,440 --> 00:09:40,640 Speaker 2: on Friday and then don't check it again. So when 182 00:09:40,679 --> 00:09:43,120 Speaker 2: it says one inch on Friday and you get eighteen, 183 00:09:43,160 --> 00:09:45,480 Speaker 2: they think the weather was wrong. Had you been checking 184 00:09:45,600 --> 00:09:50,000 Speaker 2: it all the time. As of like twenty hours before 185 00:09:50,040 --> 00:09:52,480 Speaker 2: the storm, they had it up to ten inches, twelve inches, 186 00:09:52,640 --> 00:09:55,080 Speaker 2: and then it got twelve to eighteen. So the weather 187 00:09:55,120 --> 00:09:57,800 Speaker 2: gets it right. You just have to keep checking it. 188 00:09:57,800 --> 00:09:59,840 Speaker 2: It's like a stock price. You can't look at it Friday, 189 00:10:00,160 --> 00:10:03,400 Speaker 2: that's the price today. So the State of the Union 190 00:10:03,480 --> 00:10:06,440 Speaker 2: speech is tomorrow night. That's going to be a big, 191 00:10:06,920 --> 00:10:10,920 Speaker 2: big thing Democrats. It's a big chance for them to 192 00:10:10,960 --> 00:10:15,040 Speaker 2: look ridiculous and childish and pout and throw their temper tantrums. 193 00:10:15,040 --> 00:10:17,959 Speaker 2: Member Nancy Pelosi ripping up the President's speech one of 194 00:10:18,040 --> 00:10:24,400 Speaker 2: the most disgusting, tacky, juvenile, tantrum, child ridiculous things. So 195 00:10:24,480 --> 00:10:26,520 Speaker 2: this year they're going to have a separate state. They're 196 00:10:26,520 --> 00:10:28,960 Speaker 2: going to have their own State of the Union out 197 00:10:29,000 --> 00:10:32,559 Speaker 2: in the park the National Mall. It's going to look ridiculous. 198 00:10:32,920 --> 00:10:37,480 Speaker 2: Chuck Schumer, a lot of Democrats will be at that 199 00:10:37,920 --> 00:10:40,559 Speaker 2: alternate stadium. Chuck Schumer will go to the real one. 200 00:10:40,559 --> 00:10:45,520 Speaker 5: He says, as of now, because I respect the whole institution, 201 00:10:46,720 --> 00:10:50,640 Speaker 5: but I don't respect Donald Trump one bit, I will go. 202 00:10:52,160 --> 00:10:54,520 Speaker 5: But the bottom line is there are a lot of 203 00:10:54,520 --> 00:10:56,520 Speaker 5: my colleagues who aren't going to go, and I tell 204 00:10:56,600 --> 00:10:59,000 Speaker 5: him that's I think that's fine with me. Everyone should 205 00:10:59,000 --> 00:10:59,800 Speaker 5: make his own choice. 206 00:11:00,200 --> 00:11:02,240 Speaker 2: If you hooked a light detector up to him, or 207 00:11:02,320 --> 00:11:05,960 Speaker 2: you injected him with truth theorem, he would be saying 208 00:11:05,960 --> 00:11:08,600 Speaker 2: to you, I don't like the President, but I am 209 00:11:08,720 --> 00:11:10,800 Speaker 2: gonna go. I think it's very important for me to 210 00:11:10,880 --> 00:11:15,360 Speaker 2: go because it's tons of TV cameras and because of 211 00:11:15,400 --> 00:11:17,720 Speaker 2: my feud with the President, they'll keep putting the camera 212 00:11:17,800 --> 00:11:20,880 Speaker 2: on me and I'll get a lot of FaceTime on camera, 213 00:11:20,960 --> 00:11:24,439 Speaker 2: and that's the reason I'm going. If you said the 214 00:11:24,520 --> 00:11:26,079 Speaker 2: check showre that is gonna be a first stay of 215 00:11:26,120 --> 00:11:28,760 Speaker 2: the Union, not televised, there'll be no cameras. He wouldn't 216 00:11:28,760 --> 00:11:30,760 Speaker 2: even be there. He's just there for the cameras. He's 217 00:11:30,800 --> 00:11:35,040 Speaker 2: got his new glasses, clean, the lenses and everything. He's 218 00:11:35,040 --> 00:11:37,439 Speaker 2: got one of those cheap suits that he'll wear, and 219 00:11:37,520 --> 00:11:39,760 Speaker 2: that's the only reason going to be on TV. Same 220 00:11:39,800 --> 00:11:43,120 Speaker 2: thing with Hakeem Jefferies. He knows being such an opponent, 221 00:11:43,440 --> 00:11:46,400 Speaker 2: they'll keep putting him on camera, and that's the only 222 00:11:46,440 --> 00:11:49,000 Speaker 2: reason he's going stay of the Union. The President will 223 00:11:49,000 --> 00:11:56,960 Speaker 2: talk about tariffs, all that stuff, and you know, we'll 224 00:11:57,000 --> 00:12:00,600 Speaker 2: get to this coming up. The tariff ruling the Supreme 225 00:12:00,600 --> 00:12:04,320 Speaker 2: Court was a real chance for fake news to go 226 00:12:04,679 --> 00:12:07,959 Speaker 2: really old fashioned fake you as fake as they can go. 227 00:12:08,480 --> 00:12:12,120 Speaker 2: So if you're watching even the ABC Sunday Show or 228 00:12:12,160 --> 00:12:16,079 Speaker 2: the nightly news, the headline when the tariff declared illegal 229 00:12:16,120 --> 00:12:21,479 Speaker 2: by the Court, the headline was President Trump's signature, signature 230 00:12:21,600 --> 00:12:26,640 Speaker 2: economic policy overturned by the Supreme up stunning. First of all, 231 00:12:26,679 --> 00:12:31,400 Speaker 2: it's not his signature economic policies. Signature economic policy would 232 00:12:31,400 --> 00:12:34,640 Speaker 2: be the big beautiful bill. The tariff was one tool 233 00:12:34,760 --> 00:12:38,480 Speaker 2: in the toolbox with many tools in it. And the 234 00:12:38,520 --> 00:12:41,679 Speaker 2: other thing they kept lying about the President when he 235 00:12:41,679 --> 00:12:44,000 Speaker 2: heard the news, he did a press conference later where 236 00:12:44,000 --> 00:12:46,000 Speaker 2: he really went after the court and he basically said, 237 00:12:46,040 --> 00:12:47,760 Speaker 2: we're going to do the tariffs anyway. We'll find a 238 00:12:47,800 --> 00:12:49,960 Speaker 2: way to do him. We're going to keep doing them 239 00:12:50,000 --> 00:12:53,680 Speaker 2: no matter what the court says. And then all the 240 00:12:53,760 --> 00:13:00,319 Speaker 2: fake news, every newscast opened with unprecedented response, unprecedented spot 241 00:13:00,679 --> 00:13:03,840 Speaker 2: defying the courts, as is unprecedent. Now, of course, this 242 00:13:03,960 --> 00:13:06,480 Speaker 2: is a total lie by fake news. If you're the 243 00:13:06,559 --> 00:13:09,520 Speaker 2: MSNBC type, you're watching this like a bobblehead, you're nodding. 244 00:13:09,880 --> 00:13:12,240 Speaker 2: Then you're all repeating to each other. It's unprecedented the 245 00:13:12,240 --> 00:13:15,880 Speaker 2: way he It happens all the time. I'll give you 246 00:13:15,880 --> 00:13:18,360 Speaker 2: a recent example of what Joe Biden would forgive the 247 00:13:18,360 --> 00:13:22,480 Speaker 2: student loans. Supreme Court overturned it. Biden immediately held a 248 00:13:22,480 --> 00:13:24,920 Speaker 2: press conference announcing that he was going to defy the court. 249 00:13:24,960 --> 00:13:26,920 Speaker 2: He was going to do it anyway. He didn't care 250 00:13:26,920 --> 00:13:28,679 Speaker 2: what the hell the court said. He was going to 251 00:13:28,720 --> 00:13:30,439 Speaker 2: go ahead with the plan. They'll still find a way 252 00:13:30,480 --> 00:13:32,959 Speaker 2: to do it. It's done all the time. Whenever this is 253 00:13:32,960 --> 00:13:36,560 Speaker 2: a Supreme Court ruling democrats don't like, they just ignore 254 00:13:36,600 --> 00:13:39,760 Speaker 2: it and continue. Here's aoc on. This is a few 255 00:13:39,840 --> 00:13:41,840 Speaker 2: years ago Supreme Court ruling she didn't like. 256 00:13:42,040 --> 00:13:44,600 Speaker 6: There has been thought, I believe given to this. Senator 257 00:13:44,679 --> 00:13:49,320 Speaker 6: Ron Wyden has already issued statements, for example, advising what 258 00:13:49,320 --> 00:13:51,440 Speaker 6: we should do in a situation like this, which I 259 00:13:51,480 --> 00:13:53,640 Speaker 6: concur which is that I believe that the Biden administration 260 00:13:54,160 --> 00:13:56,520 Speaker 6: should ignore this ruling. 261 00:13:56,720 --> 00:13:58,720 Speaker 2: Yeah, that's a Democrat, so a way of handling Supreme 262 00:13:58,720 --> 00:14:01,319 Speaker 2: Court rules they don't like, totally norm and out and 263 00:14:01,360 --> 00:14:07,480 Speaker 2: out defy them. So it's not unprecedented. Thank you to NBC, CBSABC, 264 00:14:07,640 --> 00:14:10,120 Speaker 2: everybody for just out and out lying to their viewers. 265 00:14:10,440 --> 00:14:15,880 Speaker 2: Unprecedented response. So hey, mar Alago. This weekend, a assassin 266 00:14:15,920 --> 00:14:19,840 Speaker 2: showed up with a shotgun and a big can of gasoline, 267 00:14:20,960 --> 00:14:23,840 Speaker 2: got over the fence, went through the perimeter, was on 268 00:14:23,880 --> 00:14:29,800 Speaker 2: the property. Confronted by Secret Service and local police. They 269 00:14:29,800 --> 00:14:31,840 Speaker 2: told them to drop the weapon, drop the gas can. 270 00:14:31,920 --> 00:14:34,000 Speaker 2: They had their weapons out. They told him to drop 271 00:14:34,000 --> 00:14:36,880 Speaker 2: his weapon. Instead he raised his weapon and aimed it 272 00:14:37,640 --> 00:14:40,600 Speaker 2: the shotgun, and of course then they shot and killed them. 273 00:14:42,520 --> 00:14:45,920 Speaker 2: There's something unusual about these assassins, the one in Butler, Pennsylvania, 274 00:14:46,680 --> 00:14:50,200 Speaker 2: this one on Saturday. These are the only they're young. 275 00:14:50,240 --> 00:14:53,920 Speaker 2: They're all like twenty, you know, twenty years old. They're 276 00:14:53,960 --> 00:14:56,880 Speaker 2: the only young people that have no social media presence 277 00:14:56,920 --> 00:15:02,080 Speaker 2: of any kind. Nothing very suspicious. It's very very very unusual. 278 00:15:02,800 --> 00:15:07,000 Speaker 2: So uh, and obviously he's not too great at using 279 00:15:07,040 --> 00:15:10,880 Speaker 2: the internet. If you check the President's schedule, he should 280 00:15:10,880 --> 00:15:12,680 Speaker 2: get on the list.

It's it's lightning up. I 456 00:23:19,600 --> 00:23:22,639 Speaker 2: mean it's falling at a much slower rate. In the 457 00:23:22,680 --> 00:23:24,440 Speaker 2: middle of the night, we're getting like two inches an hour. 458 00:23:24,880 --> 00:23:27,400 Speaker 2: Now we're getting like zero point two inches an hour. 459 00:23:27,520 --> 00:23:30,760 Speaker 2: So it's a big difference.

Of course, 469 00:23:58,560 --> 00:24:01,400 Speaker 2: he's run a million campaigns. He's worked in a lot 470 00:24:01,400 --> 00:24:04,360 Speaker 2: of white houses.

And then the weather being terrible all of us 473 00:24:08,960 --> 00:24:09,960 Speaker 9: in the east colast there. 474 00:24:10,520 --> 00:24:14,320 Speaker 2: Yeah, it's a mess. Hey, tomorrow night's State of the 475 00:24:14,440 --> 00:24:17,040 Speaker 2: Union speech? What does the President need to accomplish in 476 00:24:17,040 --> 00:24:17,560 Speaker 2: that speech? 477 00:24:18,520 --> 00:24:21,200 Speaker 9: It's a very big speech. There's a lot of things 478 00:24:21,240 --> 00:24:24,439 Speaker 9: on his plate. He needs to explain to the American public. 479 00:24:25,680 --> 00:24:27,359 Speaker 9: I was going to bring the government back into in 480 00:24:27,400 --> 00:24:29,600 Speaker 9: the functioning, especially with the weather and what have you 481 00:24:29,680 --> 00:24:34,280 Speaker 9: in FEMA and the and the Hemeline security stuff being out. Secondly, 482 00:24:34,560 --> 00:24:36,400 Speaker 9: he's got to explain to the American public and he's 483 00:24:36,400 --> 00:24:38,640 Speaker 9: going to do anything in Iran. This is a chance 484 00:24:38,680 --> 00:24:41,560 Speaker 9: for him to do that, set the tone and say 485 00:24:42,520 --> 00:24:44,800 Speaker 9: I want peace and why I want peace? If that's 486 00:24:44,840 --> 00:24:47,280 Speaker 9: the case. The third thing that he needs to any 487 00:24:47,320 --> 00:24:51,719 Speaker 9: deal on is he's clearly convincing people that this tariff 488 00:24:51,720 --> 00:24:56,159 Speaker 9: plan was correct, and he's going to obviously out of 489 00:24:56,160 --> 00:24:58,800 Speaker 9: the court is his rule that he can't use this 490 00:24:58,840 --> 00:25:01,919 Speaker 9: particular provision. Why he wants to continue to move that 491 00:25:02,440 --> 00:25:07,240 Speaker 9: ball forward. To a certain extent, it's a terrible time 492 00:25:07,320 --> 00:25:11,919 Speaker 9: for his tigress, which is another element here, because the 493 00:25:12,000 --> 00:25:14,480 Speaker 9: new provisions that he has, he can put some of 494 00:25:14,520 --> 00:25:17,600 Speaker 9: the provisions some of the terrorists back in, but in 495 00:25:17,680 --> 00:25:19,880 Speaker 9: five months the Congress has to approve it. Five months 496 00:25:19,960 --> 00:25:22,639 Speaker 9: is right at the heart of a campaign, and he 497 00:25:22,720 --> 00:25:26,119 Speaker 9: basically Democrats are going to say this is a tax 498 00:25:26,280 --> 00:25:28,679 Speaker 9: raising taxes. He's got to make the case that's what 499 00:25:28,760 --> 00:25:32,159 Speaker 9: he wants, just the opposite. So he's got a big speech. 500 00:25:32,400 --> 00:25:34,800 Speaker 9: He can't stand up there to attack the court because 501 00:25:34,800 --> 00:25:37,040 Speaker 9: he doesn't like the court, doesn't like the decision. He's 502 00:25:37,040 --> 00:25:40,440 Speaker 9: got to deal with this court and they don't care. 503 00:25:40,440 --> 00:25:42,280 Speaker 9: Most of the people in the country don't know who 504 00:25:42,359 --> 00:25:45,120 Speaker 9: is on the court, let alone who the names are. 505 00:25:45,280 --> 00:25:47,680 Speaker 9: So I think to a certain extent, he can't get 506 00:25:47,680 --> 00:25:49,680 Speaker 9: in a fight with the court. There's too many provisions 507 00:25:49,680 --> 00:25:52,280 Speaker 9: that he needs at this point in time to fight 508 00:25:52,320 --> 00:25:57,280 Speaker 9: with him. Yeah, so find alternatives when. 509 00:25:57,160 --> 00:25:59,400 Speaker 2: It comes to defying the court. It's done all the time. 510 00:25:59,440 --> 00:26:02,280 Speaker 2: The last time is Biden the student loan stuff was 511 00:26:02,359 --> 00:26:05,000 Speaker 2: ruled illegal and Biden said, I'll defy them. I'll do 512 00:26:05,000 --> 00:26:07,480 Speaker 2: it anyway. So it's it's not unprecedented, is it. 513 00:26:08,440 --> 00:26:10,000 Speaker 9: No, it's not unprecedent. What happened to Biden? 514 00:26:11,080 --> 00:26:12,960 Speaker 8: Where Biden it's on the beach. 515 00:26:13,200 --> 00:26:13,600 Speaker 2: All right? 516 00:26:15,119 --> 00:26:15,239 Speaker 10: Uh? 517 00:26:15,600 --> 00:26:17,440 Speaker 2: And then when it comes to Iran, you're talking about 518 00:26:17,480 --> 00:26:21,719 Speaker 2: the most evil regime in the world, slaughtering people, Uh, 519 00:26:23,080 --> 00:26:26,199 Speaker 2: funding terrorism, trying to get rid of Israel. Do we 520 00:26:26,280 --> 00:26:28,640 Speaker 2: really need to explain why we want regime change? 521 00:26:29,960 --> 00:26:31,760 Speaker 9: Well, I don't think we have to explain it. If 522 00:26:31,800 --> 00:26:33,760 Speaker 9: we're going to do it, we need to basically get 523 00:26:34,040 --> 00:26:36,439 Speaker 9: the parision of the Congress to do it. You know, 524 00:26:36,480 --> 00:26:39,240 Speaker 9: he's got a third of the Navy sitting off the 525 00:26:39,280 --> 00:26:42,159 Speaker 9: coast there, and you know, I think the American public 526 00:26:42,240 --> 00:26:44,440 Speaker 9: doesn't want to have another war in the Middle East 527 00:26:44,920 --> 00:26:48,080 Speaker 9: on the last couple of miserable failures. And I think 528 00:26:48,119 --> 00:26:51,159 Speaker 9: the reality is, you know, there's lots of lots of 529 00:26:51,160 --> 00:26:52,520 Speaker 9: things he can do at this point in time. He 530 00:26:52,520 --> 00:26:56,399 Speaker 9: can't raise expectations. He raised expectations a couple weeksto telling 531 00:26:56,440 --> 00:26:58,359 Speaker 9: the people when they wri any people just stay on 532 00:26:58,400 --> 00:27:02,160 Speaker 9: the streets out they're shortly. Can't do that again. Whatever 533 00:27:02,200 --> 00:27:04,679 Speaker 9: your plan is, you got to basically implement it. Explain 534 00:27:04,720 --> 00:27:07,639 Speaker 9: the American public why get to get Congress and the 535 00:27:07,680 --> 00:27:12,800 Speaker 9: dialogue tries to do it alone and it becomes a disaster. Uh, disasters, 536 00:27:13,160 --> 00:27:17,480 Speaker 9: American kids getting killed when I'm going to move for 537 00:27:17,560 --> 00:27:21,320 Speaker 9: that is important. The cost of war in the Middle 538 00:27:21,320 --> 00:27:25,040 Speaker 9: East is enormous. Uh uh you know it all oil 539 00:27:25,200 --> 00:27:27,480 Speaker 9: that comes out of that area. Uh. You know, it's 540 00:27:27,520 --> 00:27:29,560 Speaker 9: not gonna be a quick thing like Venezuela as it's 541 00:27:30,520 --> 00:27:32,639 Speaker 9: you know, there's no there's no quick wars anymore. And 542 00:27:33,800 --> 00:27:36,600 Speaker 9: you can blow up nuclear reactors and you can go 543 00:27:36,640 --> 00:27:39,040 Speaker 9: down and take some guy out at the top in Venezuela. 544 00:27:39,440 --> 00:27:43,399 Speaker 9: But this is this is an administration that thinks that 545 00:27:43,480 --> 00:27:46,240 Speaker 9: God has put them there and that they are the gods. Uh. 546 00:27:46,359 --> 00:27:48,359 Speaker 9: And then we have to explain why why we want 547 00:27:48,480 --> 00:27:48,919 Speaker 9: to change it? 548 00:27:49,200 --> 00:27:52,879 Speaker 2: Yeah? Uh, Hey, what do the Democrats need to do tomorrow? 549 00:27:52,920 --> 00:27:54,879 Speaker 2: The state of the Union. Usually they do something to 550 00:27:54,920 --> 00:27:59,159 Speaker 2: embarrass themselves. They look rude and obnoxious. How should they 551 00:27:59,160 --> 00:28:01,160 Speaker 2: behave tomorrow? Both people? 552 00:28:02,119 --> 00:28:04,200 Speaker 9: I mean the problem is that he is a show. 553 00:28:05,119 --> 00:28:07,520 Speaker 9: They're they're feeling very empowered at this point in time 554 00:28:07,520 --> 00:28:09,639 Speaker 9: when they should be or not. They're not. Their numbers 555 00:28:09,640 --> 00:28:11,960 Speaker 9: aren't much better than the presidents, but I think to 556 00:28:11,960 --> 00:28:14,439 Speaker 9: a certain extent, they feel they have some momentum. They 557 00:28:14,480 --> 00:28:17,680 Speaker 9: don't have many policies that they are appealing in the country, 558 00:28:18,119 --> 00:28:20,879 Speaker 9: But at the same time, they're the alternative, and I 559 00:28:20,920 --> 00:28:24,400 Speaker 9: think being being the alternative the better place right now 560 00:28:24,440 --> 00:28:28,560 Speaker 9: than trying to basically deal with her serious agenda. So, uh, 561 00:28:28,600 --> 00:28:32,320 Speaker 9: you know, they're performed, they'll they'll do something, but you know, 562 00:28:32,520 --> 00:28:35,320 Speaker 9: it's it's it's the president's show, and people are going 563 00:28:35,359 --> 00:28:37,680 Speaker 9: to tune in to watch what he says, what he does. 564 00:28:38,520 --> 00:28:41,160 Speaker 2: Yeah, you know, there's no law that you have to 565 00:28:41,200 --> 00:28:43,160 Speaker 2: do it in front of Congress. And some people are 566 00:28:43,160 --> 00:28:46,040 Speaker 2: saying if they if the Democrats get rude and disruptive 567 00:28:46,080 --> 00:28:48,360 Speaker 2: this time, next time, don't do the State of the 568 00:28:48,440 --> 00:28:50,640 Speaker 2: Union in Congress. Do it somewhere, do it in front 569 00:28:50,680 --> 00:28:52,840 Speaker 2: of my rushmore, do do it in some other setting. 570 00:28:52,920 --> 00:28:55,160 Speaker 9: What you president to make a speech. President make a 571 00:28:55,160 --> 00:28:58,000 Speaker 9: speech anytime he wants to. Yeah, And there's no as 572 00:28:58,040 --> 00:29:01,080 Speaker 9: you say this, there's nothing requires the president to do 573 00:29:01,120 --> 00:29:03,320 Speaker 9: a state of the state of the Union. Uh, it's 574 00:29:03,320 --> 00:29:05,360 Speaker 9: a tradition, it's not a and I think to a 575 00:29:05,360 --> 00:29:08,200 Speaker 9: certain extent, you want to use it to basically make 576 00:29:08,240 --> 00:29:11,640 Speaker 9: your case, make your argument. He just has to be 577 00:29:11,720 --> 00:29:15,240 Speaker 9: very careful and not he has to be a sales 578 00:29:15,440 --> 00:29:18,320 Speaker 9: He has to basically show that he's not a nasty man, 579 00:29:19,200 --> 00:29:23,600 Speaker 9: that this is not this is not petty. Uh. Those 580 00:29:23,640 --> 00:29:25,959 Speaker 9: are not going to pets. You're not going to move 581 00:29:26,000 --> 00:29:29,040 Speaker 9: from p President's party. Uh. That he wants someone who's 582 00:29:29,600 --> 00:29:33,920 Speaker 9: strong project strength. Uh. And that he's in charge. He 583 00:29:33,960 --> 00:29:36,280 Speaker 9: knows what's happening with the country, and he has he's 584 00:29:36,360 --> 00:29:38,440 Speaker 9: tough case to make, and he's got to convince voters 585 00:29:38,480 --> 00:29:41,440 Speaker 9: that that the economy is going to get better and 586 00:29:41,480 --> 00:29:45,280 Speaker 9: that and the fields that they passed well in time. 587 00:29:45,880 --> 00:29:48,600 Speaker 9: But at the same time public doesn't weigh that yet. 588 00:29:48,880 --> 00:29:51,160 Speaker 9: So you can't can't take them for granted. You've got 589 00:29:51,200 --> 00:29:53,880 Speaker 9: you got to be super salesman, which he traditionally has 590 00:29:53,920 --> 00:29:56,800 Speaker 9: met an effective salesman. But that's what he's going to do. 591 00:29:56,840 --> 00:30:00,080 Speaker 9: If he doesn't do that, he gets petty. Uh, he 592 00:30:00,120 --> 00:30:02,000 Speaker 9: gets Peddy to him, they'll get Petty back to them. 593 00:30:02,000 --> 00:30:05,600 Speaker 9: And if everybody hates the Congress, and everybody hates the president. 594 00:30:05,760 --> 00:30:10,000 Speaker 9: The president's party loses. He's the charge, his parties in charge, 595 00:30:10,000 --> 00:30:12,880 Speaker 9: and they. 596 00:30:12,240 --> 00:30:13,960 Speaker 2: Let me ask you them. I know the president pretty well. 597 00:30:14,000 --> 00:30:16,600 Speaker 2: I can see it in his face sometimes where he 598 00:30:16,720 --> 00:30:19,120 Speaker 2: came from a very glamorous life, but he likes being president. 599 00:30:19,160 --> 00:30:20,640 Speaker 2: But I can see it now. I can see him 600 00:30:20,640 --> 00:30:22,960 Speaker 2: getting a little bored and restless at times. Did you 601 00:30:23,000 --> 00:30:25,560 Speaker 2: ever have that problem like with Reagan where he felt 602 00:30:25,600 --> 00:30:27,360 Speaker 2: a little confined in the White House that got a 603 00:30:27,400 --> 00:30:27,960 Speaker 2: little bored. 604 00:30:28,120 --> 00:30:32,200 Speaker 9: Well, the second second terms are hard, and you know 605 00:30:32,280 --> 00:30:34,200 Speaker 9: he had set Our second term was right after the 606 00:30:34,200 --> 00:30:37,240 Speaker 9: first term, in four years in between. And I think 607 00:30:37,280 --> 00:30:39,560 Speaker 9: to a certain extent, the president has been dominating this 608 00:30:40,200 --> 00:30:43,800 Speaker 9: economy and this program for a long period of time. 609 00:30:44,520 --> 00:30:47,640 Speaker 9: He now has more power, actual power than any president 610 00:30:47,680 --> 00:30:53,680 Speaker 9: since Lynnon Johnson and Kitty Roosevelt Republican and Franklin Roosevelt Democrat. 611 00:30:54,200 --> 00:30:56,600 Speaker 9: So he's taken a lot of power. He has to 612 00:30:56,600 --> 00:30:58,600 Speaker 9: do some things for that power. And I think to 613 00:30:58,600 --> 00:31:00,560 Speaker 9: a certain extent he's going to sell it coast of all, 614 00:31:00,600 --> 00:31:02,720 Speaker 9: you're going to sell it. Yeah, And there's always the 615 00:31:02,760 --> 00:31:05,600 Speaker 9: traditional change in the midterms, and and there's no reason. 616 00:31:06,120 --> 00:31:07,320 Speaker 9: You know, there's not a lot of seats that are 617 00:31:07,320 --> 00:31:09,680 Speaker 9: going to competitive, gonna be twenty five maybe thirty seats 618 00:31:09,720 --> 00:31:12,240 Speaker 9: of the most that it could be competitive, and you've 619 00:31:12,240 --> 00:31:14,080 Speaker 9: got to win to win a majority of the pad. 620 00:31:14,720 --> 00:31:16,520 Speaker 2: Yeah, all right, well not too late. 621 00:31:16,680 --> 00:31:18,160 Speaker 9: Just it just just he just needs to be in 622 00:31:18,240 --> 00:31:19,200 Speaker 9: his persuasive best. 623 00:31:19,480 --> 00:31:22,280 Speaker 2: All right, good stuff ed, Rollins.

Around two o'clock it'll get to thirty five 664 00:33:26,360 --> 00:33:29,200 Speaker 2: degrees and then for the next few hours it'll be 665 00:33:29,240 --> 00:33:32,560 Speaker 2: thirty six degrees, so that'll help melt some of the snow. 666 00:33:33,560 --> 00:33:38,640 Speaker 2: Then tomorrow thirty three degrees. That's not great, but then 667 00:33:38,720 --> 00:33:41,680 Speaker 2: on Wednesday forty degrees and it'll stay near forty for 668 00:33:41,720 --> 00:33:44,080 Speaker 2: the rest of the week. That should melt all the snow. 669 00:33:44,160 --> 00:33:46,240 Speaker 2: So unlike last time, we'll get rid of this snow. 670 00:33:46,320 --> 00:33:49,440 Speaker 2: It looks like a little rain on Wednesday Wednesday night, 671 00:33:49,560 --> 00:33:51,760 Speaker 2: so that'll help get rid of the snow, so it 672 00:33:51,760 --> 00:33:54,840 Speaker 2: won't be as bad as last time. It'll remain for weeks. 673 00:33:54,960 --> 00:33:56,840 Speaker 2: We got another hour and a lot to get to. 674 00:33:57,000 --> 00:33:59,920 Speaker 2: Don't go away, Mark Simone in the studio here on 675 00:34:00,080 --> 00:34:01,120 Speaker 2: seven w. 676 00:34:02,000 --> 00:34:06,120 Speaker 1: Still Mark Simone show continues WI. 677 00:34:10,840 --> 00:34:14,719 Speaker 2: It's only Monday in a rough week. So far, it's 678 00:34:14,760 --> 00:34:17,560 Speaker 2: a mess out there. Just looking out the window, I 679 00:34:17,600 --> 00:34:21,799 Speaker 2: see more people walking around hour and a half ago 680 00:34:22,320 --> 00:34:24,280 Speaker 2: you look out the window and see maybe one person 681 00:34:24,360 --> 00:34:26,399 Speaker 2: on a block walking along the side with Now it's 682 00:34:26,440 --> 00:34:29,120 Speaker 2: like four or five six. So but people are starting 683 00:34:29,120 --> 00:34:31,160 Speaker 2: to get out there. A lot of stuff will be 684 00:34:31,160 --> 00:34:35,319 Speaker 2: closed today. Check wherever you're going. Restaurants, supermarkets, a lot 685 00:34:35,320 --> 00:34:40,959 Speaker 2: of stuff is not open today. Also, it's gonna it'll 686 00:34:41,000 --> 00:34:43,480 Speaker 2: all die down. It's gonna end by five thirty or six. 687 00:34:43,560 --> 00:34:46,719 Speaker 2: The wind already dying down. The rate of the snowfall 688 00:34:46,800 --> 00:34:50,000 Speaker 2: is dramatically down. It was snowing it like two inches 689 00:34:50,040 --> 00:34:53,120 Speaker 2: an hour overnight. Now it's snowing it like zero point 690 00:34:53,200 --> 00:35:00,000 Speaker 2: two inches an hour. So much better now. President truck 691 00:35:00,120 --> 00:35:03,160 Speaker 2: tomorrow night, big State of the Union speech. He'll talk 692 00:35:03,200 --> 00:35:05,279 Speaker 2: about tariffs and how to continue them. He can keep 693 00:35:05,320 --> 00:35:08,799 Speaker 2: doing the tariffs, just as Supreme Court was not a 694 00:35:10,640 --> 00:35:13,400 Speaker 2: massive slap down of the tariffs. They basically said the 695 00:35:14,080 --> 00:35:17,120 Speaker 2: law you're using to do it is the wrong one. 696 00:35:17,280 --> 00:35:20,560 Speaker 2: And they didn't offer any remedy of any kind. They 697 00:35:20,560 --> 00:35:23,959 Speaker 2: didn't say you got to return the money or since 698 00:35:24,000 --> 00:35:26,200 Speaker 2: they kept it very light, it was a very light 699 00:35:26,320 --> 00:35:30,319 Speaker 2: slap on the wrist. It wasn't what the networks made 700 00:35:30,360 --> 00:35:32,840 Speaker 2: it out to be. President Trump not happy with the ruling. 701 00:35:33,120 --> 00:35:35,799 Speaker 15: I can destroy the trade. I can destroy it. 702 00:35:36,440 --> 00:35:38,959 Speaker 2: What he's talking about here is a lot of people 703 00:35:39,040 --> 00:35:42,520 Speaker 2: think the Supreme Court ruling was incorrect, including Justice Kavanaugh, 704 00:35:42,520 --> 00:35:46,200 Speaker 2: who probably wrote the smartest opinion on it. He used 705 00:35:46,200 --> 00:35:50,760 Speaker 2: this Emergency Powers Act, which allows him to do pretty 706 00:35:50,840 --> 00:35:54,400 Speaker 2: much anything when it comes to trade with another country. 707 00:35:54,480 --> 00:35:56,719 Speaker 2: He can shut it down altogether. He can do so 708 00:35:56,800 --> 00:36:00,719 Speaker 2: many things that, to Kavanaugh's point is it's kind of 709 00:36:01,120 --> 00:36:05,400 Speaker 2: crazy to think when they wrote this act they didn't 710 00:36:05,440 --> 00:36:08,000 Speaker 2: also mean he could have tariffs. If you could do 711 00:36:08,040 --> 00:36:10,000 Speaker 2: the most extreme things, why couldn't he do a light 712 00:36:10,080 --> 00:36:13,560 Speaker 2: thing like this. So many believe Kavanaugh was right on this, 713 00:36:13,719 --> 00:36:16,480 Speaker 2: the other judges were wrong in order to even that's 714 00:36:16,719 --> 00:36:17,560 Speaker 2: what he's talking about here. 715 00:36:17,640 --> 00:36:21,040 Speaker 15: I can destroy the trade. I can destroy the country. 716 00:36:21,680 --> 00:36:26,000 Speaker 15: I'm even allowed to impose a foreign country destroying embargo. 717 00:36:26,080 --> 00:36:29,480 Speaker 15: I can embargo. I can do anything I want, but 718 00:36:29,520 --> 00:36:30,760 Speaker 15: I can't charge one dollar. 719 00:36:32,000 --> 00:36:34,640 Speaker 2: So that was Kavanaugh's point, and he's probably right. It 720 00:36:34,680 --> 00:36:35,600 Speaker 2: was a crazy ruling. 721 00:36:35,680 --> 00:36:39,400 Speaker 15: They're just being fools and lapdogs for the rhinos and 722 00:36:39,440 --> 00:36:44,399 Speaker 15: the radical left Democrats, and not that they should have anything. 723 00:36:44,080 --> 00:36:45,400 Speaker 2: At all to do with it. 724 00:36:45,480 --> 00:36:48,480 Speaker 15: They're very unpatriotic and disloyal to our constitution. 725 00:36:48,920 --> 00:36:52,359 Speaker 2: Yeah, now, if you're watching the networks, this is unprecedented. Now, 726 00:36:52,480 --> 00:36:55,280 Speaker 2: it's not. Plenty of presidents of attacked a Supreme Court ruling. 727 00:36:55,640 --> 00:36:57,920 Speaker 2: But you can't say bad things about the justices. Well, 728 00:36:57,960 --> 00:36:59,360 Speaker 2: of course you can. You notice the king of that 729 00:36:59,480 --> 00:37:02,160 Speaker 2: Chuck Schume. Remember when it came to what was it 730 00:37:02,239 --> 00:37:04,560 Speaker 2: some sort of an abortion room. You remember Schumer out 731 00:37:04,600 --> 00:37:08,239 Speaker 2: there at the rally with the megaphone warning, gorsious, you're 732 00:37:08,239 --> 00:37:10,440 Speaker 2: gonna get it, You're gonna get yours. We're gonna go 733 00:37:10,480 --> 00:37:15,680 Speaker 2: after you. So nobody's been worse at threatening attacking the 734 00:37:15,719 --> 00:37:19,719 Speaker 2: Supreme Court justice than Chuck Schumer himself. President Trump just 735 00:37:19,760 --> 00:37:21,160 Speaker 2: saying he's disappointed the. 736 00:37:21,719 --> 00:37:28,680 Speaker 15: Supreme Court's ruling on tariffs is deeply disappointing, and I'm 737 00:37:28,719 --> 00:37:33,440 Speaker 15: ashamed of certain members of the court, absolutely ashamed for 738 00:37:33,560 --> 00:37:36,600 Speaker 15: not having the courage to do what's right for our country. 739 00:37:37,080 --> 00:37:40,279 Speaker 2: Why. Why this is unprecedented this kind of response, No, 740 00:37:40,360 --> 00:37:45,120 Speaker 2: it's not. Plenty of presidents have said exactly the same thing. Hey, 741 00:37:45,400 --> 00:37:51,399 Speaker 2: the Olympics, are they over yet? No, they're still going. Hey, well, 742 00:37:51,400 --> 00:37:54,439 Speaker 2: who watches network TV anyway? I'm not a big Olympics fan, 743 00:37:54,520 --> 00:37:56,799 Speaker 2: and I have no interest ever have in hockey. I 744 00:37:56,800 --> 00:37:58,920 Speaker 2: don't know why, I just can't get interested in hockey 745 00:37:59,760 --> 00:38:02,000 Speaker 2: watching it. But this was a great moment for the 746 00:38:02,080 --> 00:38:05,200 Speaker 2: United States as they beat the Canadian hockey team when 747 00:38:05,280 --> 00:38:10,240 Speaker 2: it's really significant because right now we're bickering with Canada 748 00:38:10,320 --> 00:38:14,520 Speaker 2: and right now well and also because Canada is the 749 00:38:14,520 --> 00:38:16,759 Speaker 2: the hockey capital of the world. So if you can 750 00:38:16,760 --> 00:38:19,760 Speaker 2: beat Canada and hockey, you can beat anybody. Great moment 751 00:38:19,760 --> 00:38:20,760 Speaker 2: for the United States. 752 00:38:20,880 --> 00:38:28,279 Speaker 7: God's faith with numbers walk Acrostic compas Jack Switcher the 753 00:38:28,440 --> 00:38:31,120 Speaker 7: golden goal for the United States. 754 00:38:34,120 --> 00:38:37,120 Speaker 1: For the first time since the nineteen eighty Bear gold 755 00:38:37,680 --> 00:38:39,280 Speaker 1: the the United States. 756 00:38:39,120 --> 00:38:43,960 Speaker 2: Takes the doll Well, it was quite exciting, all right, 757 00:38:44,000 --> 00:38:45,799 Speaker 2: it was. I mean again, I'm not a hockey fan. 758 00:38:45,840 --> 00:38:48,040 Speaker 2: I'm not a big Olympic fan, but that was exciting. 759 00:38:48,840 --> 00:38:51,960 Speaker 2: The snow stay home. You got the best county executive 760 00:38:51,960 --> 00:38:54,680 Speaker 2: in America, Bruce Blakeman, Nassau County. 761 00:38:55,400 --> 00:38:58,920 Speaker 18: It's easier for our cruise to make the highways and 762 00:38:59,000 --> 00:39:01,880 Speaker 18: roadways safe, and it will be safer for you to 763 00:39:01,920 --> 00:39:04,719 Speaker 18: stay home with the high winds and the snow and 764 00:39:05,320 --> 00:39:07,840 Speaker 18: the lack of visibility. 765 00:39:08,400 --> 00:39:11,520 Speaker 2: Yeah, that's another reason for these emergency things where you're 766 00:39:11,560 --> 00:39:13,640 Speaker 2: not allowed to drive. They want nobody on the roads. 767 00:39:13,760 --> 00:39:15,799 Speaker 2: It's because it's easier to clear the roads and clean 768 00:39:15,840 --> 00:39:17,759 Speaker 2: them and keep You can't just wait till it all 769 00:39:17,800 --> 00:39:20,280 Speaker 2: falls and then clean the road. You got to clean 770 00:39:20,320 --> 00:39:22,960 Speaker 2: and plow like every couple of inches in order to 771 00:39:22,960 --> 00:39:25,360 Speaker 2: get a ton properly. So that's the other reason. 772 00:39:25,480 --> 00:39:30,239 Speaker 18: This storm will be a profound storm, one that will 773 00:39:30,280 --> 00:39:35,360 Speaker 18: reach blizzard level with high winds fifty to sixty miles 774 00:39:35,400 --> 00:39:39,880 Speaker 18: an hour, and we could have accumulation exceeding eighteen inches, 775 00:39:40,360 --> 00:39:42,719 Speaker 18: which would definitely be historic. 776 00:39:43,160 --> 00:39:45,560 Speaker 2: Yeah, you know, you look at Blakeman. It's a good 777 00:39:45,560 --> 00:39:47,160 Speaker 2: looking guy, but you look at him, he looks like 778 00:39:47,160 --> 00:39:49,000 Speaker 2: a guy who's been around. He looks like a guy 779 00:39:49,000 --> 00:39:51,480 Speaker 2: with a ton of experience. He looks like a veteran 780 00:39:51,480 --> 00:39:54,040 Speaker 2: who's done millions. He looks like he knows what he's doing. 781 00:39:54,520 --> 00:39:56,040 Speaker 2: Then you look at mom Donnie. He looks like he 782 00:39:56,120 --> 00:39:58,520 Speaker 2: just got out of college a week ago. He looks 783 00:39:58,560 --> 00:40:02,000 Speaker 2: like Jabia read In's life was being like a paper 784 00:40:02,040 --> 00:40:06,120 Speaker 2: boy or something. He looks just like a total inexperienced. 785 00:40:05,400 --> 00:40:09,440 Speaker 3: Guy combined with daytime temperatures slipping above freezing and overnight 786 00:40:09,480 --> 00:40:13,440 Speaker 3: lows dropping to the low twenties, This snowfall will melt 787 00:40:13,600 --> 00:40:18,880 Speaker 3: then refreeze, resulting in dangerously icy sidewalks and streets. 788 00:40:19,000 --> 00:40:22,520 Speaker 2: All right, looks totally inexperienced, But you get a lot 789 00:40:22,560 --> 00:40:24,960 Speaker 2: of these young elitist little college kids. They got no 790 00:40:25,000 --> 00:40:27,080 Speaker 2: experience at all, but they can talk like this, and 791 00:40:27,120 --> 00:40:28,719 Speaker 2: they can talk very fast, and they talk so fast 792 00:40:28,719 --> 00:40:29,799 Speaker 2: than you think, well, the guy must know what he's 793 00:40:29,800 --> 00:40:31,640 Speaker 2: talking about, because who can talk that fast if he doesn't. 794 00:40:31,640 --> 00:40:33,919 Speaker 2: And they so they sound like they know what they're doing, 795 00:40:34,440 --> 00:40:36,760 Speaker 2: but then they try to do it and nothing gets done. 796 00:40:37,120 --> 00:40:40,000 Speaker 2: Speaking of nothing getting done and incompetent. So this Gavin 797 00:40:40,120 --> 00:40:45,719 Speaker 2: Newsome is running for president obviously, and you know this 798 00:40:45,840 --> 00:40:50,200 Speaker 2: voter ID question, I think everybody in the world now 799 00:40:50,239 --> 00:40:54,160 Speaker 2: realizes it's just a complete scam by Democrats. They we 800 00:40:54,239 --> 00:40:58,720 Speaker 2: have voter ID for everything, everything, everything to buy anything, 801 00:40:58,880 --> 00:41:00,560 Speaker 2: to get cough medicine, And so you've got to have 802 00:41:00,560 --> 00:41:04,120 Speaker 2: a voter photo ID everywhere to get on a plane, 803 00:41:04,560 --> 00:41:06,359 Speaker 2: come into any office building. You know, if you want 804 00:41:06,360 --> 00:41:09,200 Speaker 2: to go to MSNBC or CNN, you got to show 805 00:41:09,200 --> 00:41:10,840 Speaker 2: a photo ID. To get in their building. You have 806 00:41:10,880 --> 00:41:14,520 Speaker 2: to show photo ID everywhere for everything. So the only thing, 807 00:41:14,600 --> 00:41:16,160 Speaker 2: the only thing they don't want it for is voting, 808 00:41:16,200 --> 00:41:19,880 Speaker 2: which means it's obviously a scheme to get illegals voting, 809 00:41:19,920 --> 00:41:23,320 Speaker 2: to get people to vote multiple times. Obviously it's a scam. 810 00:41:23,880 --> 00:41:28,319 Speaker 2: So Newsom is being interviewed on some panel and he's 811 00:41:28,360 --> 00:41:31,080 Speaker 2: up there in front of the audiences. He says, well, 812 00:41:31,120 --> 00:41:33,640 Speaker 2: you can't require a photo EDD because a lot of 813 00:41:33,640 --> 00:41:36,759 Speaker 2: people don't have a birth certiate. They don't have and 814 00:41:36,800 --> 00:41:39,160 Speaker 2: then Newsom says, I don't have a birth certificate. I 815 00:41:39,160 --> 00:41:41,759 Speaker 2: don't know where it is. I haven't seen it in 816 00:41:41,760 --> 00:41:44,040 Speaker 2: a million years. I don't know where my birth certificate is, 817 00:41:44,080 --> 00:41:45,680 Speaker 2: so I can't get it. How could I get it? 818 00:41:47,480 --> 00:41:49,560 Speaker 2: A lot of people were stunned that Newsom is Could 819 00:41:49,600 --> 00:41:51,799 Speaker 2: he be that stupid? I think I assume he's just lying. 820 00:41:51,800 --> 00:41:54,560 Speaker 2: He's not actually that dumb. It's very easy to get 821 00:41:54,600 --> 00:41:57,719 Speaker 2: a birth certificate replaced. If you don't have your birth certificate, 822 00:41:57,719 --> 00:42:00,759 Speaker 2: if you lost it a million years ago, it's a 823 00:42:00,840 --> 00:42:04,560 Speaker 2: simple matter to get it replaced.

Government 825 00:42:09,040 --> 00:42:12,160 Speaker 2: sites also there's a lot of private companies that do 826 00:42:12,200 --> 00:42:13,920 Speaker 2: it for you.

Nobody 832 00:42:26,600 --> 00:42:31,200 Speaker 2: could believe Newsom is that stupid, that bumbling, that he 833 00:42:31,239 --> 00:42:33,040 Speaker 2: has no idea that you can get your birthday cify 834 00:42:33,040 --> 00:42:37,240 Speaker 2: get replaced. So the Democratic Party has a problem. Besides 835 00:42:37,400 --> 00:42:41,400 Speaker 2: having all these crazy radical left wing far left woke, 836 00:42:42,120 --> 00:42:45,640 Speaker 2: they've got an amazing assortment of very dumb people. You 837 00:42:45,719 --> 00:42:51,279 Speaker 2: had AOC last weekend ten days ago. AOC is at 838 00:42:51,320 --> 00:42:54,760 Speaker 2: this conference in Munich, and she's asked a simple foreign 839 00:42:54,760 --> 00:42:59,319 Speaker 2: policy question. If China invades Taiwan, will the US respond, 840 00:43:01,080 --> 00:43:05,319 Speaker 2: Will they do something? And the answer is, of course, yes, 841 00:43:05,360 --> 00:43:08,960 Speaker 2: we will defend Taiwan. Or the answer is and this 842 00:43:09,000 --> 00:43:12,080 Speaker 2: is actually the official policy of the United States. They're 843 00:43:12,080 --> 00:43:16,480 Speaker 2: called strategic ambiguity. But you give an answer of some case. 844 00:43:16,480 --> 00:43:19,040 Speaker 2: So she couldn't answer the question. Instead, she double talked 845 00:43:19,080 --> 00:43:23,319 Speaker 2: a word salad that sounded so ridiculous. And she's been 846 00:43:23,400 --> 00:43:26,560 Speaker 2: ridiculed all over the world for bumbling an answer to 847 00:43:26,600 --> 00:43:30,680 Speaker 2: a simple question, and I guess it's getting to her. 848 00:43:30,760 --> 00:43:33,040 Speaker 2: So this weekend she put out a it was in 849 00:43:33,080 --> 00:43:34,680 Speaker 2: the middle of the night. It looked like the middle 850 00:43:34,680 --> 00:43:38,120 Speaker 2: of the night. She put out this rambling, mumbling, a 851 00:43:38,280 --> 00:43:41,799 Speaker 2: whispering kind of response, trying to explain why she gave 852 00:43:41,880 --> 00:43:44,919 Speaker 2: such a dumb answer to the question. And I guess 853 00:43:44,920 --> 00:43:48,239 Speaker 2: she does this by herself. There's no staff to say 854 00:43:48,239 --> 00:43:50,399 Speaker 2: to her, Hey, don't post this. You look like you're drunk. 855 00:43:50,440 --> 00:43:51,719 Speaker 2: It looks like it's in the middle of the night, 856 00:43:51,800 --> 00:43:55,360 Speaker 2: looks like a drunken rant. Don't post it. You look stoned, 857 00:43:55,400 --> 00:43:57,480 Speaker 2: You look well. Here it is. This is what she posted. 858 00:43:57,840 --> 00:44:00,840 Speaker 2: It's her at home alone, like right, face right in 859 00:44:00,880 --> 00:44:01,320 Speaker 2: the camera. 860 00:44:01,480 --> 00:44:05,000 Speaker 19: If you think that I don't understand foreign policy because 861 00:44:05,040 --> 00:44:09,960 Speaker 19: out of hours of discourse about international affairs, I pause 862 00:44:10,080 --> 00:44:14,280 Speaker 19: to think about one of the most sensitive geopolitical issues 863 00:44:14,719 --> 00:44:18,960 Speaker 19: that currently exist on Earth, I'm afraid the issue is 864 00:44:19,000 --> 00:44:24,160 Speaker 19: not my understanding, but rather the problem is perhaps you've 865 00:44:24,200 --> 00:44:29,200 Speaker 19: gotten adjusted to a president that never thinks before he speaks. 866 00:44:31,840 --> 00:44:34,680 Speaker 2: With that whole Uh, what the ranting was all about 867 00:44:34,760 --> 00:44:38,160 Speaker 2: it just sounds really really really crazy, but not helping 868 00:44:38,160 --> 00:44:44,560 Speaker 2: her at all. Latest on the Nancy Guthrie kidnapping h 869 00:44:45,520 --> 00:44:47,839 Speaker 2: nobody really knows anything at this point. They're talking about 870 00:44:47,840 --> 00:44:51,200 Speaker 2: that the problem is this local sheriff's office, the bumbling 871 00:44:52,080 --> 00:44:56,160 Speaker 2: local yocal you know, Barney Fife, kind of a sheriff's office. 872 00:44:56,360 --> 00:44:59,359 Speaker 2: Then making statements about the DNA could take a year 873 00:44:59,440 --> 00:45:02,719 Speaker 2: to analy I don't know what that means. They're thinking 874 00:45:02,760 --> 00:45:06,680 Speaker 2: this could be a total amateur. Somethink it's as a 875 00:45:06,719 --> 00:45:09,480 Speaker 2: couple of private eyes who've been working on this, who 876 00:45:09,520 --> 00:45:12,920 Speaker 2: think it's the drug cartel. There's a lot of people 877 00:45:12,920 --> 00:45:15,279 Speaker 2: think it's a total amateur by the bumbling way that 878 00:45:15,560 --> 00:45:18,480 Speaker 2: the amateur approached the door and then had nothing to 879 00:45:18,480 --> 00:45:21,160 Speaker 2: cover the camera with, so he grabbed some foliage and 880 00:45:21,239 --> 00:45:22,719 Speaker 2: try to do it with that, and then didn't know 881 00:45:22,719 --> 00:45:25,160 Speaker 2: how to do it. Also, the holster that he was 882 00:45:25,160 --> 00:45:28,640 Speaker 2: wearing on the front is like the lowest, cheapest, crummiest, 883 00:45:28,680 --> 00:45:32,399 Speaker 2: most amateurish holster. They don't think any professional criminal would 884 00:45:32,480 --> 00:45:37,880 Speaker 2: use such a holster. Also cited the suspects of clothing 885 00:45:37,960 --> 00:45:40,920 Speaker 2: and gear. It didn't look right. Now there's some that 886 00:45:41,040 --> 00:45:44,040 Speaker 2: still go to the Mexican drug cartel, thinking that the 887 00:45:44,200 --> 00:45:48,680 Speaker 2: type of clothing, and he's one that says, this kind 888 00:45:48,719 --> 00:45:52,080 Speaker 2: of stuff is typically in Mexico cheap holster. Those weird 889 00:45:52,120 --> 00:45:55,680 Speaker 2: looking gloves, that sort of stuff. Now they found an 890 00:45:55,719 --> 00:45:58,680 Speaker 2: Arizona couple found another pair of gloves. These these gloves 891 00:45:58,760 --> 00:46:03,080 Speaker 2: blood stain out there near the neighborhood. Actually, people have 892 00:46:03,120 --> 00:46:07,640 Speaker 2: found several different several different gloves all around the neighborhood. Well, 893 00:46:07,640 --> 00:46:09,759 Speaker 2: how does so many people throw their gloves all over 894 00:46:09,800 --> 00:46:12,879 Speaker 2: the place. It's a very warm climate there. I don't 895 00:46:12,880 --> 00:46:14,920 Speaker 2: know why all these people would have gloves anyway, who 896 00:46:14,960 --> 00:46:18,839 Speaker 2: would wear gloves in such a warm climate. But we'll see. Hey, 897 00:46:18,840 --> 00:46:21,520 Speaker 2: the Ukraine War, does anybody remember that? You know that 898 00:46:21,840 --> 00:46:23,799 Speaker 2: Russia Ukraine? Do you know they're still fighting? You never 899 00:46:23,840 --> 00:46:26,440 Speaker 2: hear a word about this ever. Used to be all 900 00:46:26,480 --> 00:46:28,560 Speaker 2: over the news. You don't hear a single thing about it. 901 00:46:28,640 --> 00:46:31,439 Speaker 2: Watch every newscast in the world for the last week, 902 00:46:31,480 --> 00:46:36,880 Speaker 2: nothing about Ukraine. But the war still continues, and Ukraine 903 00:46:36,920 --> 00:46:42,760 Speaker 2: a huge strike this past week, Ukraine strike, missile strike 904 00:46:43,239 --> 00:46:47,520 Speaker 2: against a key Russian military facility. It was a missile 905 00:46:47,560 --> 00:46:51,680 Speaker 2: factory actually, and it was deep inside Russia eight hundred 906 00:46:51,680 --> 00:46:55,680 Speaker 2: and sixty miles inside Russia, eight hundred and sixty miles 907 00:46:55,719 --> 00:46:59,200 Speaker 2: inside Russia, and the Ukraine hit it with a bunch 908 00:46:59,200 --> 00:47:03,240 Speaker 2: of missiles and took out And they used not Tomahawk missiles, 909 00:47:03,360 --> 00:47:07,480 Speaker 2: US Tomahawk. No, No, they used Flamingo missiles. Now you're saying, 910 00:47:07,480 --> 00:47:09,960 Speaker 2: what the hell's a Flamingo missile. It's actually made by 911 00:47:09,960 --> 00:47:13,520 Speaker 2: a company called the High Point. It's a Ukrainian company 912 00:47:13,520 --> 00:47:17,560 Speaker 2: in Ukraine. They can travel reportedly two thousand miles. But 913 00:47:17,640 --> 00:47:21,080 Speaker 2: they were right on target. Took out this missile factory 914 00:47:21,480 --> 00:47:24,919 Speaker 2: eight hundred and sixty miles deep inside Russia, all done 915 00:47:24,960 --> 00:47:29,719 Speaker 2: with Ukrainian made missiles. Pretty good. So it may get 916 00:47:29,760 --> 00:47:31,400 Speaker 2: to the point where they may be able to actually 917 00:47:31,400 --> 00:47:36,080 Speaker 2: make their own weapons, defend themselves, not depend on us 918 00:47:36,120 --> 00:47:39,640 Speaker 2: for anything though.

No snow, but it does feel like 975 00:50:41,760 --> 00:50:44,239 Speaker 9: twenty two degrees down here, so we got the cold air. 976 00:50:44,320 --> 00:50:46,359 Speaker 2: You know, So you're in Myrtle Beach. You ever get 977 00:50:46,360 --> 00:50:47,920 Speaker 2: a lot of snow? You don't get snow there, do you? 978 00:50:48,480 --> 00:50:51,200 Speaker 9: Yeah? We did. We had five inches last month and 979 00:50:51,360 --> 00:50:53,600 Speaker 9: stuck around for a day. Two last year we had 980 00:50:53,640 --> 00:50:56,160 Speaker 9: five or six inches. That's stuck around for almost a week. 981 00:50:56,200 --> 00:50:58,239 Speaker 9: But you know, they have a little clown call with 982 00:50:58,320 --> 00:51:01,960 Speaker 9: a shovel on it, and that's their their their plows, 983 00:51:02,040 --> 00:51:04,640 Speaker 9: and you know it actually just shuts down the entire 984 00:51:04,719 --> 00:51:06,000 Speaker 9: state when something like that happens. 985 00:51:06,000 --> 00:51:08,560 Speaker 2: You know, well, we got fifteen inches in New York, 986 00:51:08,640 --> 00:51:12,080 Speaker 2: eighteen inches in the suburbs, two feet in the south 987 00:51:12,080 --> 00:51:13,040 Speaker 2: shore of Long Island. 988 00:51:13,080 --> 00:51:15,359 Speaker 9: So that's why I used to live in Long Beach 989 00:51:15,360 --> 00:51:17,319 Speaker 9: and Atlantic Beach.

You know, I sit around and just watch it, melt. 991 00:51:20,000 --> 00:51:21,960 Speaker 9: I used to like shoveling snow, even when I was 992 00:51:21,960 --> 00:51:24,120 Speaker 9: in my fifties.

You have to have two forms of ID 999 00:51:38,320 --> 00:51:40,719 Speaker 9: to shovel snow for twelve dollars an hour, but you 1000 00:51:40,719 --> 00:51:43,120 Speaker 9: don't have to have one to vote up there? You know, Hey, 1001 00:51:43,120 --> 00:51:45,759 Speaker 9: I'm watching the news here, Mark, And you know they 1002 00:51:45,840 --> 00:51:48,719 Speaker 9: killed this drug cartel kingpin in Mexico who was an 1003 00:51:48,719 --> 00:51:51,000 Speaker 9: ex cop by the way, all right, so in seven 1004 00:51:51,000 --> 00:51:53,719 Speaker 9: of the cartel's just taking the loss, putting somebody else 1005 00:51:53,760 --> 00:51:56,120 Speaker 9: in charge and keep pumping out the drugs.

If you want a physical radio, 1058 00:55:05,480 --> 00:55:07,880 Speaker 2: the best one made in the world is c Crane. 1059 00:55:07,920 --> 00:55:12,520 Speaker 2: They come in different sizes. I have I think I 1060 00:55:12,520 --> 00:55:15,120 Speaker 2: have about six Sea Crane radios. I mean some of 1061 00:55:15,200 --> 00:55:17,560 Speaker 2: them from years ago. But they never ever ever break 1062 00:55:17,640 --> 00:55:20,839 Speaker 2: or where they last you forever you plug them in. 1063 00:55:20,880 --> 00:55:23,600 Speaker 2: But they also can operate on batteries, so if God forbid, 1064 00:55:23,640 --> 00:55:27,040 Speaker 2: lose your power, it'll still work. It is the best radio, 1065 00:55:27,120 --> 00:55:29,759 Speaker 2: especially AM FM, of course.

Obviously you need 1107 00:57:41,840 --> 00:57:44,520 Speaker 2: an ID to buy anything anywhere, to get into any 1108 00:57:44,600 --> 00:57:48,800 Speaker 2: office building. H It's obviously the Democrats up to no 1109 00:57:48,920 --> 00:57:51,120 Speaker 2: good with this voter ID stuff, am I right? 1110 00:57:53,080 --> 00:57:56,840 Speaker 16: Well, let's look at the New York City we learned 1111 00:57:56,880 --> 00:58:00,479 Speaker 16: a few years ago when Deblasio was mayor much fraud 1112 00:58:00,560 --> 00:58:05,200 Speaker 16: there was in New York City elections. The Democratic appointee 1113 00:58:05,200 --> 00:58:08,640 Speaker 16: to the Board of Elections for Manhattan was accosted by 1114 00:58:08,760 --> 00:58:11,840 Speaker 16: James O'Keefe at a party, and he admitted how much 1115 00:58:11,880 --> 00:58:13,480 Speaker 16: fraud there was in New York. He said, you know, 1116 00:58:13,520 --> 00:58:16,320 Speaker 16: in buses they rent them in Chinatown, they take up 1117 00:58:16,360 --> 00:58:18,640 Speaker 16: pick up the homeless, they give them packs of cigarettes, 1118 00:58:18,680 --> 00:58:22,240 Speaker 16: they drive them from polling place to polling place. And 1119 00:58:22,320 --> 00:58:26,320 Speaker 16: that's just one way that they do fraud. And Deblasio's 1120 00:58:26,360 --> 00:58:29,080 Speaker 16: response was not to question him about the fraud, but 1121 00:58:29,160 --> 00:58:32,480 Speaker 16: to fire him. He fired his own Democratic appointee to 1122 00:58:32,520 --> 00:58:36,680 Speaker 16: the Board of Elections. So we know there's fraud. Now, 1123 00:58:37,680 --> 00:58:39,200 Speaker 16: what does Mayor Mandami do. 1124 00:58:39,800 --> 00:58:40,080 Speaker 12: Well? 1125 00:58:40,200 --> 00:58:43,120 Speaker 16: The mayor says voter ID is racist. He agrees with 1126 00:58:43,200 --> 00:58:46,360 Speaker 16: Chuck Schumer that it's Jim Crow two point zero. But 1127 00:58:47,040 --> 00:58:52,240 Speaker 16: when he announces that the city needs emergency snow shovelers yesterday, 1128 00:58:52,880 --> 00:58:56,760 Speaker 16: what does he say? It's nineteen dollars an hour, you know, 1129 00:58:56,880 --> 00:59:00,080 Speaker 16: good wages, maybe not union wages, but good wages. 1130 00:59:00,640 --> 00:59:02,200 Speaker 9: And you only have. 1131 00:59:02,200 --> 00:59:05,920 Speaker 16: To bring five forms of ID to sign up. You 1132 00:59:05,960 --> 00:59:11,600 Speaker 16: need two photos, you need two IDs and your Social 1133 00:59:11,640 --> 00:59:14,960 Speaker 16: Security card and then you can snow. Then you're allowed 1134 00:59:15,000 --> 00:59:17,680 Speaker 16: to shovel snow, which is of course a high security, 1135 00:59:18,080 --> 00:59:25,560 Speaker 16: high impact job. So the hypocrisy here is beyond rich. 1136 00:59:26,560 --> 00:59:29,320 Speaker 2: Isn't it also the most racist thing on earth for 1137 00:59:29,400 --> 00:59:31,760 Speaker 2: Democrats to say, well, a black voter can't figure out 1138 00:59:31,760 --> 00:59:33,840 Speaker 2: how to get an idea they wouldn't be capable of getting. 1139 00:59:34,200 --> 00:59:35,240 Speaker 2: How racist is well? 1140 00:59:36,600 --> 00:59:39,560 Speaker 16: The Brennan Center, which is the liberal think tank that 1141 00:59:39,640 --> 00:59:42,520 Speaker 16: does these issues, say twenty five percent of African Americans 1142 00:59:42,640 --> 00:59:45,280 Speaker 16: lack of a loader ID, an idea that would be 1143 00:59:45,280 --> 00:59:49,400 Speaker 16: accepted at the polls. That's ridiculous. Everybody knows that. I mean, 1144 00:59:49,440 --> 00:59:52,120 Speaker 16: you can't sign up for Medicare, you can't sign up 1145 00:59:52,360 --> 00:59:57,000 Speaker 16: for catching a check, you can't travel, you can't do 1146 00:59:57,080 --> 00:59:59,840 Speaker 16: anything with that idea today. It's preposterous to the twenty 1147 00:59:59,800 --> 01:00:02,880 Speaker 16: four five percent of African Americans lack and IDA, And 1148 01:00:02,960 --> 01:00:05,760 Speaker 16: of course African Americans think it's preposterous. If you look 1149 01:00:05,800 --> 01:00:08,400 Speaker 16: at the polls, the most recent ones of the Washington 1150 01:00:08,400 --> 01:00:13,880 Speaker 16: Post survey and the and the Pew Research survey, seventy 1151 01:00:14,120 --> 01:00:17,480 Speaker 16: one percent of African Americans support photo idea at the 1152 01:00:17,520 --> 01:00:23,200 Speaker 16: polls sixty seven percent of Hispanics and eighty percent of 1153 01:00:23,240 --> 01:00:28,040 Speaker 16: Asian Americans. So if it's so racist, if it's so discriminatory, 1154 01:00:28,560 --> 01:00:31,600 Speaker 16: why is it that they all of these minority groups 1155 01:00:31,600 --> 01:00:36,400 Speaker 16: have false consciousness and believe something which isn't true. 1156 01:00:37,480 --> 01:00:40,200 Speaker 2: Didn't Obama require photo idea to get Obamacare. 1157 01:00:42,360 --> 01:00:44,600 Speaker 16: Well, of course you need the idea to get Obamacare. 1158 01:00:44,880 --> 01:00:47,640 Speaker 16: You need ideed for everything. In fact, if you march 1159 01:00:47,720 --> 01:00:49,680 Speaker 16: down to the to the city hall to get married, 1160 01:00:50,000 --> 01:00:53,000 Speaker 16: and that's you know, marriage is a constitutional right, whether 1161 01:00:53,040 --> 01:00:55,600 Speaker 16: it's gay or straight marriage, you've got to have an ID. 1162 01:00:55,800 --> 01:00:58,280 Speaker 2: Yeah. Well, so what do you think will happen whill 1163 01:00:58,280 --> 01:01:01,440 Speaker 2: we get the the federal government do something to make 1164 01:01:01,480 --> 01:01:03,360 Speaker 2: it uniform voter ID require. 1165 01:01:03,760 --> 01:01:06,520 Speaker 16: First of all, we don't want to follow what Joe 1166 01:01:06,520 --> 01:01:09,880 Speaker 16: Biden did, which is he tried to nationalize the elections. 1167 01:01:09,880 --> 01:01:11,800 Speaker 16: He tried to take away the power of the states 1168 01:01:12,000 --> 01:01:15,080 Speaker 16: to run the elections and federalize it in Washington. We 1169 01:01:15,120 --> 01:01:18,400 Speaker 16: don't want that. So what the law that's before the 1170 01:01:18,440 --> 01:01:21,600 Speaker 16: Senate now it passes past the House. The law says 1171 01:01:22,000 --> 01:01:24,840 Speaker 16: the federal government, if it's going to give money the 1172 01:01:24,880 --> 01:01:29,400 Speaker 16: people to the states for voting machines and improving their technology, 1173 01:01:29,920 --> 01:01:35,720 Speaker 16: in response, you have to require that the states ask 1174 01:01:35,800 --> 01:01:37,800 Speaker 16: for a photo ID to vote the polls. And when 1175 01:01:37,800 --> 01:01:41,240 Speaker 16: people first register they have to prove their citizenship. And 1176 01:01:41,280 --> 01:01:43,760 Speaker 16: there are many ways to prove your citizenship. You can 1177 01:01:43,760 --> 01:01:45,640 Speaker 16: do it with a birth certificate, which, by the way, 1178 01:01:45,640 --> 01:01:47,920 Speaker 16: you can get online. Now you can go through almost 1179 01:01:47,960 --> 01:01:50,360 Speaker 16: all the records and if you're less than eighty years old, 1180 01:01:50,360 --> 01:01:52,920 Speaker 16: you're going to find your certificate online and can get 1181 01:01:52,920 --> 01:01:55,680 Speaker 16: a copy sent to you. And look, I'll say it 1182 01:01:55,680 --> 01:01:58,360 Speaker 16: should be free, you know. I think that everybody should 1183 01:01:58,400 --> 01:02:01,480 Speaker 16: have access to a free ID and then they can 1184 01:02:01,600 --> 01:02:04,840 Speaker 16: use it to vote, and you know, and that's why. 1185 01:02:04,920 --> 01:02:08,000 Speaker 16: So it's so easy, that's why so overwhelming majorities of 1186 01:02:08,080 --> 01:02:11,960 Speaker 16: every American demographic group supported. In fact, the last time 1187 01:02:12,000 --> 01:02:14,960 Speaker 16: I checked it was the Washington Post survey. There were 1188 01:02:15,000 --> 01:02:19,200 Speaker 16: forty different categories of voters and the only category which 1189 01:02:19,280 --> 01:02:22,080 Speaker 16: voter ID did not have a majority of it had 1190 01:02:22,080 --> 01:02:25,040 Speaker 16: a plurality support. More supported it than not. They were 1191 01:02:25,040 --> 01:02:28,680 Speaker 16: few not sure was the extremely liberal group I call 1192 01:02:28,760 --> 01:02:33,880 Speaker 16: those MSNBC and ms NOW voters. Other than that, everyone 1193 01:02:33,960 --> 01:02:35,000 Speaker 16: supports voter ID. 1194 01:02:36,040 --> 01:02:38,439 Speaker 2: So, hey, maybe maybe it's too early to ask you this, Well, 1195 01:02:38,480 --> 01:02:40,000 Speaker 2: how does it look for the midterms? What do you 1196 01:02:40,000 --> 01:02:41,400 Speaker 2: think happens in the midterms? 1197 01:02:42,560 --> 01:02:45,600 Speaker 16: If the election were today, would not be good. But 1198 01:02:45,640 --> 01:02:47,800 Speaker 16: the election is not held today. It's held in November, 1199 01:02:48,320 --> 01:02:50,760 Speaker 16: and the economy will go through a lot of generations 1200 01:02:50,840 --> 01:02:54,440 Speaker 16: before then. President Trump, you know, has been known to 1201 01:02:54,440 --> 01:02:57,160 Speaker 16: pull rabbits out of hats, but you know he's gonna 1202 01:02:57,200 --> 01:02:59,560 Speaker 16: have to be a pretty big rabbit. He has made 1203 01:02:59,640 --> 01:03:04,400 Speaker 16: some tax tical mistakes, Mark, and unfortunately I think he 1204 01:03:05,040 --> 01:03:11,160 Speaker 16: is anger sometimes gets ahead of his cold calculated self interest. 1205 01:03:11,280 --> 01:03:15,720 Speaker 16: And the problem with the tariffs is this. The tariffs 1206 01:03:15,720 --> 01:03:19,520 Speaker 16: are very, very popular with his base. Eighty seven percent 1207 01:03:19,560 --> 01:03:24,560 Speaker 16: of Maga Republicans like the tariffs, but forty three percent 1208 01:03:24,640 --> 01:03:27,240 Speaker 16: of non Maga Republicans support the tariffs. So there's a 1209 01:03:27,240 --> 01:03:29,480 Speaker 16: big gap there, and there's still a lot of non 1210 01:03:29,560 --> 01:03:34,600 Speaker 16: Maga Republicans. So here's the problem. Overall, independents hate the 1211 01:03:34,640 --> 01:03:38,280 Speaker 16: tariffs by two to one, and they're the ones who 1212 01:03:38,320 --> 01:03:42,520 Speaker 16: decide the election in these thirty swing house races. I 1213 01:03:42,560 --> 01:03:45,680 Speaker 16: think the Supreme Court handed the President a gift. It 1214 01:03:45,680 --> 01:03:48,960 Speaker 16: gives him an excuse to blame someone else for scilling 1215 01:03:49,040 --> 01:03:52,160 Speaker 16: back the tariffs and not making them the big issue 1216 01:03:52,160 --> 01:03:55,200 Speaker 16: in the campaign. Here's the problem we have, Mark. He's 1217 01:03:55,240 --> 01:03:58,680 Speaker 16: imposed this new fifteen percent tariff, but it expires in 1218 01:03:58,760 --> 01:04:01,040 Speaker 16: five months. That puts us right in the middle of 1219 01:04:01,080 --> 01:04:03,840 Speaker 16: the fall campaign. Congress will then have to vote on 1220 01:04:03,920 --> 01:04:06,880 Speaker 16: the tariffs to extend them, otherwise they go away immediately. 1221 01:04:07,400 --> 01:04:10,360 Speaker 16: Trump will put pressure on the Republican congressman to vote 1222 01:04:10,360 --> 01:04:12,720 Speaker 16: for them, but enough will not vote for them that 1223 01:04:12,840 --> 01:04:15,800 Speaker 16: he'll go down to defeat. He'll look weak. The tariffs 1224 01:04:15,840 --> 01:04:18,800 Speaker 16: will be the issue in the fall election. It won't 1225 01:04:18,800 --> 01:04:21,959 Speaker 16: be ice, It'll be the tariffs. And people who worry 1226 01:04:22,000 --> 01:04:24,280 Speaker 16: about affordability and the high price of things are going 1227 01:04:24,320 --> 01:04:27,640 Speaker 16: to say Trump wanted tariffs, he just forced Congress to 1228 01:04:27,720 --> 01:04:30,480 Speaker 16: vote on them. And I don't want high prices, so 1229 01:04:30,520 --> 01:04:32,600 Speaker 16: I'm going to not vote Republican or stay home. 1230 01:04:32,760 --> 01:04:35,240 Speaker 2: Well, now, what can he do tomorrow night, stay to 1231 01:04:35,240 --> 01:04:37,960 Speaker 2: the union speech to fix that? Can he do something 1232 01:04:37,960 --> 01:04:39,120 Speaker 2: tomorrow night to really miss. 1233 01:04:39,600 --> 01:04:41,360 Speaker 16: If he wants to pull rabbit out of the hat, 1234 01:04:41,400 --> 01:04:44,480 Speaker 16: here's the biggest rabbit he can pull right now. Everything 1235 01:04:44,520 --> 01:04:48,240 Speaker 16: in our economy is indexed. You know your Social Security 1236 01:04:48,240 --> 01:04:52,880 Speaker 16: payment is indexed, Your tax brackets are indexed. Everything is 1237 01:04:52,920 --> 01:04:55,800 Speaker 16: indexed for inflation. The one thing that isn't indexed for 1238 01:04:55,840 --> 01:04:59,320 Speaker 16: inflation is capital gains. If you buy an asset, whether 1239 01:04:59,360 --> 01:05:02,960 Speaker 16: it's a painting, a house, a stock, it's not index 1240 01:05:03,000 --> 01:05:06,000 Speaker 16: translation as it appreciates in value. In other words, if 1241 01:05:06,040 --> 01:05:08,920 Speaker 16: you sell something, you're selling it at the price it 1242 01:05:09,000 --> 01:05:11,800 Speaker 16: is today, not the price you paid for it. So 1243 01:05:11,920 --> 01:05:13,960 Speaker 16: what the president can do, and he could do it 1244 01:05:13,960 --> 01:05:15,560 Speaker 16: with housing, but I think he should do it with 1245 01:05:15,600 --> 01:05:18,400 Speaker 16: the economy as a whole. He should say, if you 1246 01:05:18,600 --> 01:05:22,160 Speaker 16: sell something, you're going to pay the capital gains on 1247 01:05:22,280 --> 01:05:24,800 Speaker 16: the original price, not the price you settle down. This 1248 01:05:24,800 --> 01:05:27,560 Speaker 16: will unlock housing all over the country. There are people 1249 01:05:27,600 --> 01:05:30,520 Speaker 16: sitting in houses Mark that aren't selling because they don't 1250 01:05:30,520 --> 01:05:34,160 Speaker 16: want to pay the capital gains because there's your housing 1251 01:05:34,200 --> 01:05:36,800 Speaker 16: exemption goes away after a while. If he did that, 1252 01:05:36,800 --> 01:05:40,680 Speaker 16: that would be turbo charging the economy. Secretary of State, Treasury, 1253 01:05:40,760 --> 01:05:43,600 Speaker 16: Secretary's Treasury vest and has done the numbers. Would turbo 1254 01:05:43,680 --> 01:05:46,800 Speaker 16: charge the economy would have a rush of GDP growth 1255 01:05:47,120 --> 01:05:50,120 Speaker 16: and people would be freed up. They could get they 1256 01:05:50,120 --> 01:05:53,160 Speaker 16: could change assets, they could buy new assets. It would 1257 01:05:53,160 --> 01:05:55,840 Speaker 16: be a boon and it would be a political winner. 1258 01:05:56,160 --> 01:05:59,480 Speaker 2: Wow. Good stuff.

There are people 1279 01:07:05,880 --> 01:07:09,760 Speaker 2: walking around. Subways are running, not every single line, and 1280 01:07:10,160 --> 01:07:14,680 Speaker 2: many of the lines have delays or some expresses now 1281 01:07:14,760 --> 01:07:17,320 Speaker 2: locals that sort of stuff.

You can shovel the snow on 1288 01:07:37,600 --> 01:07:40,880 Speaker 2: the bridge, but it's the winds that causes the closure, 1289 01:07:40,920 --> 01:07:43,480 Speaker 2: and the winds are dying down. They were up to 1290 01:07:43,560 --> 01:07:46,720 Speaker 2: eighty miles an hour in some places. Now it sounds 1291 01:07:46,720 --> 01:07:50,640 Speaker 2: like thirty twenty. Still snowing, but it's very light snow now, 1292 01:07:50,680 --> 01:07:52,919 Speaker 2: and it'll all wrap up about five thirty or six 1293 01:07:52,960 --> 01:07:56,240 Speaker 2: and that'll be the end of it.
