1 00:00:00,400 --> 00:00:03,320 Speaker 1: Mister New York Mark Simone. 2 00:00:04,440 --> 00:00:09,000 Speaker 2: Wr Well, we a lot to get to this hour. 3 00:00:09,119 --> 00:00:11,319 Speaker 2: It was a pretty bad weekend weatherwise. I mean it 4 00:00:11,400 --> 00:00:13,880 Speaker 2: was probably the worst weekend of the winter, even worse 5 00:00:13,920 --> 00:00:18,440 Speaker 2: than those big snowfall weekends. I mean, it was so cold. 6 00:00:19,360 --> 00:00:23,840 Speaker 2: You just Saturday, just people just hibernated all day Friday night, 7 00:00:23,880 --> 00:00:26,680 Speaker 2: Saturday Saturday. Although I talked to people that went out, 8 00:00:26,720 --> 00:00:29,280 Speaker 2: there were people out. There were people in restaurants and 9 00:00:29,320 --> 00:00:33,120 Speaker 2: comedy clubs, in Broadway theaters and it wasn't easy though. 10 00:00:33,120 --> 00:00:36,560 Speaker 2: You know, it was actually colder on Saturday in New York. 11 00:00:36,640 --> 00:00:41,760 Speaker 2: It was colder than in Antarctica. That's absolutely true. It 12 00:00:41,800 --> 00:00:45,880 Speaker 2: was colder here than it was there for the probably 13 00:00:45,920 --> 00:00:48,840 Speaker 2: the first time ever. It was like fifteen below here 14 00:00:49,720 --> 00:00:54,920 Speaker 2: and something like five degrees Antarctica. So super Bowl last night, 15 00:00:54,960 --> 00:00:57,480 Speaker 2: a lot of people not coming to work today. They 16 00:00:57,520 --> 00:01:01,920 Speaker 2: call it miswork Monday, twenty six millillion people either take 17 00:01:01,920 --> 00:01:04,720 Speaker 2: the day off or call in sick because of the 18 00:01:04,720 --> 00:01:07,640 Speaker 2: Super Bowl. There's been talk of making it an actual holiday, 19 00:01:07,680 --> 00:01:12,800 Speaker 2: a three day weekend, making it the Monday a holiday. 20 00:01:12,800 --> 00:01:15,119 Speaker 2: Here's the problem, though, if you did it, your super 21 00:01:15,160 --> 00:01:18,840 Speaker 2: Bowl is you know, right now in February. If you 22 00:01:18,959 --> 00:01:22,560 Speaker 2: made this a holiday, this upcoming weekend, you got another holiday, 23 00:01:22,600 --> 00:01:25,760 Speaker 2: you got President's Day. Don't forget this weekend. You got 24 00:01:25,760 --> 00:01:27,640 Speaker 2: a three day weekend, so you don't want to do 25 00:01:27,680 --> 00:01:30,880 Speaker 2: two of those in a row. The simple answer would be, 26 00:01:30,920 --> 00:01:38,560 Speaker 2: moved the super Bowl to Saturday. It's just traditional on Sunday, 27 00:01:38,680 --> 00:01:41,800 Speaker 2: but move it to Saturday night. That's really the solution 28 00:01:41,920 --> 00:01:44,600 Speaker 2: to that. Restaurants would hate it. A lot of restaurants 29 00:01:44,720 --> 00:01:46,679 Speaker 2: lose a lot of money because people stay home super 30 00:01:46,720 --> 00:01:49,720 Speaker 2: Bowl parties, that sort of stuff, or if they go out, 31 00:01:49,840 --> 00:01:52,360 Speaker 2: it's usually to a sports place, not a regular restaurant. 32 00:01:52,400 --> 00:01:58,000 Speaker 2: But that's I mean, well, now it's better on Sunday. 33 00:01:58,000 --> 00:02:01,400 Speaker 2: It's got to be super Bowl Sunday. Football's on Sunday. 34 00:02:01,400 --> 00:02:06,200 Speaker 2: Super Bowl should be on Sunday. So Bad Bunny was 35 00:02:06,240 --> 00:02:09,679 Speaker 2: the halftime performer. Now at the so many people did 36 00:02:09,720 --> 00:02:12,519 Speaker 2: not want Bad Bunny, or they thought he might get political, 37 00:02:12,600 --> 00:02:14,799 Speaker 2: or they were, for one reason or another offended by 38 00:02:14,840 --> 00:02:19,160 Speaker 2: his choice of Bad Bunny. That the alternative was Kid Rock. 39 00:02:19,800 --> 00:02:22,840 Speaker 2: You could watch him online. He did the alternative half 40 00:02:22,840 --> 00:02:26,119 Speaker 2: point show, Turning Point USA ran it with Kid Rock. 41 00:02:26,240 --> 00:02:30,320 Speaker 2: Many people turned off the Super Bowl with bad Bunny 42 00:02:30,360 --> 00:02:32,640 Speaker 2: to go over and watch Kid Rock. Well, it turns 43 00:02:32,680 --> 00:02:35,760 Speaker 2: out it was about six million. Numbers still coming in 44 00:02:35,840 --> 00:02:39,200 Speaker 2: might hit seven million, but six million. You got to 45 00:02:39,200 --> 00:02:41,280 Speaker 2: figure out how many people watch the Super Bowl, Big 46 00:02:41,280 --> 00:02:43,760 Speaker 2: super Bowl sixty million. Maybe ten percent of the audience 47 00:02:43,840 --> 00:02:46,680 Speaker 2: turned it off and went over to watch Kid Rock. 48 00:02:46,720 --> 00:02:51,680 Speaker 2: It was otherwise a dull game, a mismatch Seattle. I 49 00:02:51,680 --> 00:02:54,280 Speaker 2: can't stay in Seattle, but the best defense in football. 50 00:02:54,840 --> 00:02:57,440 Speaker 2: I like the Patriots, but this team is too new. 51 00:02:57,480 --> 00:03:00,280 Speaker 2: They weren't ready for the Super Bowl. It was a low, 52 00:03:00,400 --> 00:03:03,600 Speaker 2: sluggish game, not a lot of scoring. Thank god it 53 00:03:03,720 --> 00:03:04,480 Speaker 2: finally ended. 54 00:03:04,840 --> 00:03:10,600 Speaker 1: That will do it, Seattle rains above them all. Give 55 00:03:10,680 --> 00:03:16,320 Speaker 1: the NFL the Seahawks super Bowl chickens for the second time. 56 00:03:17,040 --> 00:03:20,240 Speaker 2: Here you go. Now here's the other thing, Seattle Seahawks. 57 00:03:21,160 --> 00:03:23,520 Speaker 2: They may not exist next year. The Seahawks may have 58 00:03:23,600 --> 00:03:27,320 Speaker 2: to move. You know, Seattle, Washington. It's a crazy left 59 00:03:27,320 --> 00:03:30,920 Speaker 2: wing state with a woke government. And they want to 60 00:03:31,080 --> 00:03:34,960 Speaker 2: impose a tax on the football player, so big tax. 61 00:03:35,000 --> 00:03:39,120 Speaker 2: They want to tax them like crazy, not just the 62 00:03:39,160 --> 00:03:44,600 Speaker 2: team and the Seattle players, but any visiting team. So 63 00:03:44,720 --> 00:03:47,240 Speaker 2: if a team comes to play in Seattle, which of course, 64 00:03:47,240 --> 00:03:50,720 Speaker 2: will happen all the time. The players will get taxed. 65 00:03:51,160 --> 00:03:53,000 Speaker 2: They're going to hit them with this big, like ten 66 00:03:53,040 --> 00:03:56,240 Speaker 2: percent tax. Now, remember these guys are getting tens of 67 00:03:56,400 --> 00:03:58,280 Speaker 2: millions of dollars, so it's going to be a pretty 68 00:03:58,280 --> 00:04:01,240 Speaker 2: big tax. If they go through with this stupid tax, 69 00:04:01,240 --> 00:04:04,200 Speaker 2: I would imagine the Seahawks will have to move to 70 00:04:04,320 --> 00:04:08,920 Speaker 2: another city. It's ridiculous. Normally, in the past, if you 71 00:04:08,960 --> 00:04:10,520 Speaker 2: want to get a football team, you give them a 72 00:04:10,600 --> 00:04:14,560 Speaker 2: tax break because they bring in a ton of business revenue, 73 00:04:14,600 --> 00:04:20,200 Speaker 2: all sorts of glory and help your city. This crazy 74 00:04:20,320 --> 00:04:23,719 Speaker 2: left wing today's Democrats, and the old Democrats knew better. 75 00:04:23,760 --> 00:04:28,360 Speaker 2: But today's crazy Democrats think billionaires. Let's just tax them businesses. 76 00:04:28,440 --> 00:04:31,920 Speaker 2: Let's tax them, and they just move, they leave, they flee. 77 00:04:32,000 --> 00:04:35,960 Speaker 2: Your economy suffers, everything suffers, you lose jobs, you'll lose everything. 78 00:04:36,600 --> 00:04:38,960 Speaker 2: Then you get states like Florida and Texas. If you're 79 00:04:39,000 --> 00:04:41,960 Speaker 2: in Texas, they'll give you nothing but tax breaks if 80 00:04:41,960 --> 00:04:45,120 Speaker 2: you're a business. So every major business in the world 81 00:04:45,200 --> 00:04:49,360 Speaker 2: moves to Texas and the economy is absolutely booming. Same 82 00:04:49,360 --> 00:04:52,680 Speaker 2: thing with Florida. And this is tradition, this is the 83 00:04:52,680 --> 00:04:56,680 Speaker 2: way they used to do everything. You know, these rundown 84 00:04:56,839 --> 00:05:00,159 Speaker 2: Democrat cities, they're in shambles. If you just call up 85 00:05:00,200 --> 00:05:01,920 Speaker 2: every business in the world say if you open up here, 86 00:05:01,960 --> 00:05:04,800 Speaker 2: we'll give you, We'll make your tax free for ten years, 87 00:05:05,080 --> 00:05:07,440 Speaker 2: every business in the world would rush to open there. Now, 88 00:05:07,520 --> 00:05:10,440 Speaker 2: of course, you got mom Donnie here, who may may 89 00:05:10,520 --> 00:05:12,800 Speaker 2: do this to New York. He's talking about imposing new 90 00:05:12,880 --> 00:05:15,760 Speaker 2: taxes on businesses. Hey, by the way, remember when Donald 91 00:05:15,800 --> 00:05:19,719 Speaker 2: Trump tried to putting tariffs on and the left wing 92 00:05:19,760 --> 00:05:23,440 Speaker 2: went crazy, How tariffs is going to ruin everything? Well, 93 00:05:23,440 --> 00:05:27,480 Speaker 2: these are tariffs. Nobody puts on more tariffs than the Democrats. 94 00:05:27,480 --> 00:05:31,280 Speaker 2: They call it corporate tax, but it's tariffs. And if 95 00:05:31,279 --> 00:05:33,640 Speaker 2: you got heavy, we have the highest corporate tax in 96 00:05:33,680 --> 00:05:36,080 Speaker 2: the world right now. If you say I'm gonna increase 97 00:05:36,120 --> 00:05:38,320 Speaker 2: it ten percent, well that's a tariff. That's a ten 98 00:05:38,360 --> 00:05:40,560 Speaker 2: percent tariff. Here's Mom Donnie. 99 00:05:40,600 --> 00:05:42,560 Speaker 3: So the way that this tax works is it applies 100 00:05:42,600 --> 00:05:45,360 Speaker 3: to any business doing business here. They could be located 101 00:05:45,400 --> 00:05:47,680 Speaker 3: in Miami, but if they're doing business in New York, 102 00:05:47,680 --> 00:05:49,719 Speaker 3: it applies to them. And the reason I believe everyone 103 00:05:49,760 --> 00:05:52,240 Speaker 3: will keep doing business here is our economy is so 104 00:05:52,360 --> 00:05:54,080 Speaker 3: large that if it was a country, it would rival 105 00:05:54,120 --> 00:05:55,239 Speaker 3: the top countries in the world. 106 00:05:55,440 --> 00:05:57,640 Speaker 2: It don't count on it. You see that. Look at 107 00:05:57,640 --> 00:05:59,800 Speaker 2: the logic of this big, big tax. If you come 108 00:05:59,839 --> 00:06:03,560 Speaker 2: to New York and opening business. Now, if you're somewhere 109 00:06:03,600 --> 00:06:05,640 Speaker 2: else and you sell anything here, you're gonna get this big, 110 00:06:05,680 --> 00:06:09,560 Speaker 2: big tech. I mean, it's absolutely insane, Mom Donnie. It 111 00:06:09,640 --> 00:06:12,000 Speaker 2: turns out when it comes to the snow removal, it's 112 00:06:12,040 --> 00:06:15,560 Speaker 2: getting better. That might be the weather more than anything, 113 00:06:15,600 --> 00:06:18,400 Speaker 2: but it's a and he has picked up the garbage. 114 00:06:18,440 --> 00:06:20,239 Speaker 2: It was a little late, but most of the garbage 115 00:06:20,279 --> 00:06:23,159 Speaker 2: has gotten picked up. But you still got those snow banks. 116 00:06:23,200 --> 00:06:26,119 Speaker 2: But what happened for two weeks that all that snow 117 00:06:26,240 --> 00:06:30,160 Speaker 2: was piled up and it was ridiculous. Well, it turns out, 118 00:06:30,200 --> 00:06:34,560 Speaker 2: Mam Donnie failed to recruit enough emergency snow shovelers. This 119 00:06:34,640 --> 00:06:36,840 Speaker 2: is what you do in a storm like this. You 120 00:06:36,920 --> 00:06:39,440 Speaker 2: got a certain amount of shovelers, but when you're gonna 121 00:06:39,440 --> 00:06:42,800 Speaker 2: get a blizzard like that, you need more. So as 122 00:06:42,839 --> 00:06:45,600 Speaker 2: a Tuesday, all he had were nineteen or eighteen hundred, 123 00:06:45,720 --> 00:06:51,360 Speaker 2: eighteen hundred shovelers. In comparison in previous administration when they 124 00:06:51,360 --> 00:06:53,039 Speaker 2: had this, what they do is they go out and 125 00:06:53,040 --> 00:06:56,760 Speaker 2: they hire shovelers. They put out ads, they blitze the 126 00:06:56,760 --> 00:07:00,000 Speaker 2: community with ads. In the past, for instance, twenty and fifty, 127 00:07:00,240 --> 00:07:07,400 Speaker 2: we had sixty five hundred shovelers. Yeah, in fact, the 128 00:07:07,440 --> 00:07:09,760 Speaker 2: remember the blizzard back then, they had a big blizzard 129 00:07:09,760 --> 00:07:13,520 Speaker 2: thirty three inches. They had thirty five hundred shovelers at 130 00:07:13,560 --> 00:07:17,160 Speaker 2: one time, working sixty five hundred total. So we only 131 00:07:17,200 --> 00:07:20,000 Speaker 2: got eighteen hundred right now. Again, you got to go 132 00:07:20,040 --> 00:07:24,400 Speaker 2: out and you got massive advertising to hire these shovelers, 133 00:07:24,400 --> 00:07:29,520 Speaker 2: these laborers. According to the report's mom, Donnie, made a 134 00:07:29,560 --> 00:07:33,360 Speaker 2: half hearted outreach effort too late, didn't do enough and 135 00:07:33,480 --> 00:07:36,920 Speaker 2: didn't get enough shovelers. And that was the main problem 136 00:07:36,960 --> 00:07:40,680 Speaker 2: with all of that. So, hey, the Washington Post, this 137 00:07:40,760 --> 00:07:45,640 Speaker 2: is a fascinating story. They're laying off hundreds and hundreds 138 00:07:45,640 --> 00:07:47,720 Speaker 2: and hundreds of people. They laid off about a couple 139 00:07:47,840 --> 00:07:51,640 Speaker 2: hundred before, now three hundred this past week. The paper 140 00:07:51,680 --> 00:07:54,200 Speaker 2: is losing a fortune. It's own by Jeff Bezos. Of course, 141 00:07:54,320 --> 00:07:59,320 Speaker 2: everybody is up in arms yelling and screaming about these layoffs. 142 00:07:59,400 --> 00:08:05,000 Speaker 2: But but it was the staff of the Washington Post 143 00:08:05,000 --> 00:08:07,360 Speaker 2: and the people running it that caused the layoffs. They 144 00:08:07,440 --> 00:08:13,000 Speaker 2: went crazy left wing woke, Trump bashing like crazy. Trump 145 00:08:13,080 --> 00:08:15,280 Speaker 2: derangement syndrome was way out. It was so far to 146 00:08:15,280 --> 00:08:18,120 Speaker 2: the left. There is an audience for that. But you're 147 00:08:18,160 --> 00:08:20,640 Speaker 2: going to lose half the normal people. Half of America 148 00:08:20,680 --> 00:08:23,360 Speaker 2: will stop reading. So they basically got rid of half 149 00:08:23,440 --> 00:08:27,560 Speaker 2: their readers. And then when you get rid of half 150 00:08:27,600 --> 00:08:29,560 Speaker 2: your readers, you get rid of half your revenue, half 151 00:08:29,560 --> 00:08:33,240 Speaker 2: your income from the subscriptions and all that, and you 152 00:08:33,320 --> 00:08:35,840 Speaker 2: got to start laying off people. So they caused the layoffs. 153 00:08:35,880 --> 00:08:39,720 Speaker 2: They're yelling and screaming about it. Now, this paper is 154 00:08:39,760 --> 00:08:43,320 Speaker 2: such a mess that it loses one hundred million a year. 155 00:08:44,559 --> 00:08:47,200 Speaker 2: Do you know that it loses two million dollars a week. 156 00:08:47,200 --> 00:08:49,200 Speaker 2: At the end of every week, they're two million dollars 157 00:08:49,240 --> 00:08:53,439 Speaker 2: in debt. Jeff Bezos owns it. So at the end 158 00:08:53,480 --> 00:08:56,680 Speaker 2: of every week, Jeff Bezos has to write a check 159 00:08:56,720 --> 00:08:59,160 Speaker 2: for two million dollars just to keep this thing going. 160 00:09:00,080 --> 00:09:02,400 Speaker 2: I know he's a zillionaire, he's worth hundreds of billions, 161 00:09:02,440 --> 00:09:05,560 Speaker 2: but every week, at the end of the week he's 162 00:09:05,600 --> 00:09:07,960 Speaker 2: got to write a check for two million dollars just 163 00:09:07,960 --> 00:09:10,079 Speaker 2: to keep it going. How many years do you think 164 00:09:10,080 --> 00:09:12,400 Speaker 2: he's going to keep that up. He's a business guy, 165 00:09:12,400 --> 00:09:15,400 Speaker 2: he's a logical business guy. At some point he's going 166 00:09:15,440 --> 00:09:16,920 Speaker 2: to wonder why he used to keep writing a check 167 00:09:16,960 --> 00:09:20,439 Speaker 2: for two million every week to get it to keep 168 00:09:20,480 --> 00:09:24,839 Speaker 2: it going. So that's why all the layoffs. Now you 169 00:09:24,960 --> 00:09:27,760 Speaker 2: heard that the big CEO of the paper stepped down 170 00:09:27,880 --> 00:09:31,359 Speaker 2: over the weekend. Apparently he was told to get out. 171 00:09:32,320 --> 00:09:34,439 Speaker 2: He was in the middle of these layoffs. Last week, 172 00:09:34,480 --> 00:09:36,800 Speaker 2: they laid off three hundred people. In the middle of that, 173 00:09:37,320 --> 00:09:39,720 Speaker 2: the CEO was out at the Super Bowl, walking around 174 00:09:39,760 --> 00:09:43,280 Speaker 2: the red carpet, going to all the parties. Bezos said, 175 00:09:43,320 --> 00:09:46,720 Speaker 2: that's the final straw. He just can't take this guy. 176 00:09:46,720 --> 00:09:49,319 Speaker 2: He said, that's the last straw with this guy. And 177 00:09:49,360 --> 00:09:51,120 Speaker 2: he was basically told to get the hell out. He 178 00:09:51,200 --> 00:09:53,880 Speaker 2: lost patience with him. Middle of all these layoffs. He's 179 00:09:53,880 --> 00:09:58,120 Speaker 2: out there at the super Bowl. Absolutely ridiculous. The CEO 180 00:09:58,840 --> 00:10:01,480 Speaker 2: claims he decided to and you know, put out one 181 00:10:01,520 --> 00:10:05,160 Speaker 2: of those I want to spend more time with my family. 182 00:10:05,480 --> 00:10:07,760 Speaker 2: And if you've seen his family, nobody wants to spend 183 00:10:07,800 --> 00:10:10,280 Speaker 2: more time with them. So that's it. Now. I don't 184 00:10:10,280 --> 00:10:14,480 Speaker 2: know what what Bezos will do with this Washington Post. 185 00:10:14,559 --> 00:10:17,520 Speaker 2: It's pretty much hopeless. He could try to sell it, 186 00:10:17,600 --> 00:10:24,440 Speaker 2: but nobody wants These people don't read newspapers anymore. Twenty 187 00:10:24,480 --> 00:10:27,960 Speaker 2: two million people read newspapers in America now twenty two million. 188 00:10:29,559 --> 00:10:31,760 Speaker 2: One hundred and fifty nine million listen to the radio 189 00:10:32,480 --> 00:10:36,840 Speaker 2: sixty three million listen to AM radio. Newspapers twenty two million, 190 00:10:36,880 --> 00:10:39,240 Speaker 2: So it's not much. I don't know how you could 191 00:10:39,320 --> 00:10:44,600 Speaker 2: really sell it. The only possible buyers there is some 192 00:10:44,760 --> 00:10:47,520 Speaker 2: hint that Bloomberg might want to buy it. In fact, 193 00:10:48,280 --> 00:10:50,440 Speaker 2: a couple of years ago Bloomberg was there kicking the 194 00:10:50,520 --> 00:10:55,160 Speaker 2: tires on it, So Bloomberg a possible buyer. It's not 195 00:10:55,200 --> 00:10:57,240 Speaker 2: a good business, there's no logical reason to buy it, 196 00:10:57,280 --> 00:10:59,600 Speaker 2: but you know, Bloomberg is always trying to create some 197 00:10:59,640 --> 00:11:02,760 Speaker 2: sort of a media presence, more of a Washington presence, 198 00:11:02,800 --> 00:11:05,320 Speaker 2: so that's a possibility. The other thing is the Wall 199 00:11:05,320 --> 00:11:09,120 Speaker 2: Street Journal might buy it. The Wall Street Journal just 200 00:11:09,160 --> 00:11:12,920 Speaker 2: looking to expand there, or Washington DC coverage, they might 201 00:11:12,960 --> 00:11:16,800 Speaker 2: buy it. Murdoch is about the only guy who's still 202 00:11:16,880 --> 00:11:21,240 Speaker 2: really interested in newspapers, so that's a slight, slight possibility. 203 00:11:22,240 --> 00:11:25,640 Speaker 2: Nancy Guthrie, It's day nine. Now you know she needs 204 00:11:25,679 --> 00:11:28,520 Speaker 2: all kinds of medicine, heart medicine, blood pressure medicine. She 205 00:11:28,600 --> 00:11:32,840 Speaker 2: got cardiac problems. I've asked doctors if they kidnap her, 206 00:11:32,920 --> 00:11:35,359 Speaker 2: she has no medicine. If you're on all these medicines, 207 00:11:35,600 --> 00:11:39,480 Speaker 2: how long could you go. It's nine days without her medicine. Well, 208 00:11:39,800 --> 00:11:42,200 Speaker 2: they say it it's not good, but you could. You 209 00:11:42,200 --> 00:11:45,520 Speaker 2: could last a couple of weeks without the medicine. You know, 210 00:11:45,559 --> 00:11:49,000 Speaker 2: they found a lot of blood, trail of blood. One 211 00:11:49,040 --> 00:11:51,000 Speaker 2: of the things she was probably taking for the heart 212 00:11:51,000 --> 00:11:54,920 Speaker 2: problems was a blood thinner, So that's why all the blood. 213 00:11:55,200 --> 00:11:56,959 Speaker 2: It might not have been that much of an injury, 214 00:11:57,040 --> 00:11:59,600 Speaker 2: but the slightest little cut you can bleed a lot 215 00:11:59,640 --> 00:12:04,320 Speaker 2: when you're on those blood thinners. So we'll we'll see. 216 00:12:04,320 --> 00:12:07,800 Speaker 2: Today at five o'clock is a deadline, big deadline. Five 217 00:12:07,840 --> 00:12:12,600 Speaker 2: o'clock today, I supposed to deliver the six million dollar 218 00:12:13,240 --> 00:12:15,440 Speaker 2: ransom and bitcoin. You know, the old days, you had 219 00:12:15,440 --> 00:12:17,679 Speaker 2: to take the money, put it in a suitcase, They 220 00:12:17,760 --> 00:12:20,040 Speaker 2: give you a location, you drop it off, which meant 221 00:12:20,200 --> 00:12:23,680 Speaker 2: the kidnappers had to come pick up the money physically, 222 00:12:23,720 --> 00:12:25,400 Speaker 2: come pick it up somewhere. So that was a way 223 00:12:25,400 --> 00:12:28,199 Speaker 2: to catch them with the bitcoin. I don't know how 224 00:12:28,240 --> 00:12:30,000 Speaker 2: you catch them. I don't know how you ever traced them. 225 00:12:30,000 --> 00:12:32,160 Speaker 2: They could already be long gone out of the country. 226 00:12:32,200 --> 00:12:37,520 Speaker 2: But we'll see what happens later today. So mayor, Mom, Donnie, 227 00:12:38,559 --> 00:12:43,480 Speaker 2: and you're saying, why doesn't he do something, Why doesn't 228 00:12:43,520 --> 00:12:46,320 Speaker 2: he act? Why doesn't he Well, he's busy with this 229 00:12:46,400 --> 00:12:48,000 Speaker 2: is what he was busy with this weekend. 230 00:12:48,200 --> 00:12:52,079 Speaker 4: The story of the Hidra reminds us the prophet Muhammad 231 00:12:52,160 --> 00:12:55,000 Speaker 4: so the ala Ali who was seldom was a stranger too, 232 00:12:55,679 --> 00:12:59,400 Speaker 4: who fled Mecca and was welcomed in Medina. Sura Nahal 233 00:12:59,480 --> 00:13:02,960 Speaker 4: sixteen already two tells us as for those who immigrated 234 00:13:02,960 --> 00:13:05,520 Speaker 4: in the cause of a law after being persecuted, we 235 00:13:05,600 --> 00:13:09,440 Speaker 4: will surely bless them with a good home in this world. Or, 236 00:13:09,559 --> 00:13:13,400 Speaker 4: as the prophet Muhammed Salila Aleh was seldom said, Islam 237 00:13:13,480 --> 00:13:16,760 Speaker 4: began as something strange and will go back to being strange. 238 00:13:17,240 --> 00:13:19,120 Speaker 4: So glad tidings to the strangers. 239 00:13:19,200 --> 00:13:21,440 Speaker 2: What the hell are you talking about? Just pick up 240 00:13:21,440 --> 00:13:23,800 Speaker 2: the snow, What the hell are you talking about? Pick 241 00:13:23,880 --> 00:13:30,280 Speaker 2: up the garbage?

How the hell did you elect this guy? 244 00:13:36,120 --> 00:13:39,080 Speaker 2: What on earth were you thinking? What is wrong with you? 245 00:13:40,000 --> 00:13:42,160 Speaker 2: The real problem was Andrew Cuomo got in a race, 246 00:13:42,240 --> 00:13:44,960 Speaker 2: and everybody hates this guy. Nobody hates Andrew Culomo more 247 00:13:45,000 --> 00:13:47,720 Speaker 2: than the Democrats. So he got in the primary. It 248 00:13:47,800 --> 00:13:51,360 Speaker 2: was it was how it was how Mom Donnie won. 249 00:13:51,559 --> 00:13:54,199 Speaker 2: They just it was a lot of voting against Cuomo, 250 00:13:54,720 --> 00:13:57,000 Speaker 2: and they say, you know here, when you win the 251 00:13:57,000 --> 00:14:00,199 Speaker 2: Democrat primary, you win the election. Hey, by the way, way, 252 00:14:00,200 --> 00:14:02,320 Speaker 2: Cuomo is now doing a radio show. You should listen 253 00:14:02,360 --> 00:14:05,360 Speaker 2: to this. This guy is so far to the left. 254 00:14:05,440 --> 00:14:08,959 Speaker 2: Cuomo is so left wing. If you're thinking, yeeres, Mam 255 00:14:09,040 --> 00:14:10,880 Speaker 2: Donni is terrible, I wish we had Cuomo listen to 256 00:14:10,960 --> 00:14:14,240 Speaker 2: his radio show. Sometimes he is to the left of 257 00:14:14,320 --> 00:14:18,280 Speaker 2: Mam Donnie on most issues. This week talking about how 258 00:14:18,280 --> 00:14:21,280 Speaker 2: awful Ice is.

I mean, 260 00:14:23,120 --> 00:14:25,360 Speaker 2: you can use that language, but that's basically what he 261 00:14:25,440 --> 00:14:28,320 Speaker 2: was saying.
