1
00:00:00,680 --> 00:00:07,640
Speaker 1: Now this is the Mark Simon Show on sevent tenor.

2
00:00:08,880 --> 00:00:12,360
Speaker 2: Well, finally it's Friday. It's gonna be a great day

3
00:00:12,360 --> 00:00:15,200
Speaker 2: to day. You got opening day Yankee Stadium. Weather will

4
00:00:15,200 --> 00:00:18,639
Speaker 2: be fine. Doesn't look so great right now, but the cloudiness,

5
00:00:18,640 --> 00:00:20,799
Speaker 2: the drizzle go away, its sun will come out. It'll

6
00:00:20,800 --> 00:00:23,080
Speaker 2: be a great opening day to day. We'll get to

7
00:00:23,440 --> 00:00:26,200
Speaker 2: Pam Bondy and exactly what happened there. We'll get to

8
00:00:27,040 --> 00:00:30,760
Speaker 2: President Trump, no kings, We'll get to NATO, we'll get

9
00:00:30,760 --> 00:00:34,440
Speaker 2: to Iran, we'll get to sixty minutes. Looks like there's

10
00:00:34,479 --> 00:00:39,320
Speaker 2: gonna be a massacre there coming. And we'll get to

11
00:00:39,560 --> 00:00:43,640
Speaker 2: Tiger Woods and a whole lot more coming up. The

12
00:00:43,720 --> 00:00:46,760
Speaker 2: job numbers came out this morning. You won't hear about

13
00:00:46,760 --> 00:00:50,000
Speaker 2: it very much because they were great. They were not

14
00:00:50,080 --> 00:00:53,320
Speaker 2: just great, they were spectacular. Remember there was a month

15
00:00:53,560 --> 00:00:56,000
Speaker 2: not long ago where the job numbers were below what

16
00:00:56,120 --> 00:01:00,240
Speaker 2: was expected. It was the lead story everywhere every network News,

17
00:01:00,400 --> 00:01:03,680
Speaker 2: New York Times, it was lead story. Job numbers were

18
00:01:03,680 --> 00:01:07,319
Speaker 2: lower than expected. Well, we've more than made up for that.

19
00:01:07,319 --> 00:01:09,760
Speaker 2: The job numbers were expected to be sixty thousand. It

20
00:01:09,760 --> 00:01:14,160
Speaker 2: was one hundred and seventy eight thousand. It was fabulous

21
00:01:14,280 --> 00:01:18,959
Speaker 2: job numbers, way above what was expected. We're now at

22
00:01:19,000 --> 00:01:22,440
Speaker 2: full employment four point three percent. So you won't hear

23
00:01:22,440 --> 00:01:25,520
Speaker 2: about this. It will not be the lead story on

24
00:01:25,560 --> 00:01:28,240
Speaker 2: the NBC Nightly News. As we told you back then,

25
00:01:28,280 --> 00:01:30,119
Speaker 2: I remember when the job numbers are a little low,

26
00:01:30,400 --> 00:01:35,240
Speaker 2: lead story on the nightly news, main story, everywhere, lead story.

27
00:01:35,400 --> 00:01:38,959
Speaker 2: Now you will not hear about this anywhere all day long.

28
00:01:39,000 --> 00:01:43,319
Speaker 2: You'll just keep it very quiet. So we're learning more

29
00:01:43,319 --> 00:01:48,720
Speaker 2: about Pam Bondy. She's out. Who's going to replace her? Well,

30
00:01:49,560 --> 00:01:54,680
Speaker 2: it'll be Todd Blanche, the acting Attorney General. And actually,

31
00:01:54,800 --> 00:01:57,480
Speaker 2: for the last few months he's really been running things.

32
00:01:57,880 --> 00:02:01,000
Speaker 2: He's really been the guy running things. So nothing much

33
00:02:01,000 --> 00:02:04,200
Speaker 2: will change over there. There's been a lot of talk

34
00:02:04,240 --> 00:02:08,240
Speaker 2: of Leezelden. He's become very very very well regarded in

35
00:02:08,320 --> 00:02:11,080
Speaker 2: the inner circle of the Trump White House. So it

36
00:02:11,120 --> 00:02:13,800
Speaker 2: could be Lee Zelden. You can be sure. Janine Piro

37
00:02:13,960 --> 00:02:16,640
Speaker 2: is on the phone constantly calling. There are people pushing

38
00:02:16,680 --> 00:02:19,480
Speaker 2: for her. There are people. Now you're going to hear

39
00:02:19,480 --> 00:02:23,079
Speaker 2: some senator's names, Eric Schmidt, you've heard the name is

40
00:02:23,200 --> 00:02:26,160
Speaker 2: Mike Lee, a couple of other senators. There a lot

41
00:02:26,160 --> 00:02:29,040
Speaker 2: of people are saying that should be the pick. Now,

42
00:02:29,160 --> 00:02:32,240
Speaker 2: the reason for that there's people in the Senate that

43
00:02:32,320 --> 00:02:34,880
Speaker 2: the Senate would like to get rid of. You just

44
00:02:35,639 --> 00:02:37,239
Speaker 2: want to get him out of the Senate, so they're

45
00:02:37,280 --> 00:02:41,079
Speaker 2: pushing those names. Don't take that very seriously. There's Elena Habba,

46
00:02:41,200 --> 00:02:44,239
Speaker 2: but you know the problem is she's a little too

47
00:02:44,360 --> 00:02:47,920
Speaker 2: Pam bondi ish. Now, there were problems with Pam Bondie

48
00:02:48,880 --> 00:02:52,440
Speaker 2: running things. The list is at the top of the

49
00:02:52,480 --> 00:02:56,200
Speaker 2: list Epstein Files disaster. She made a total mess out

50
00:02:56,200 --> 00:02:59,400
Speaker 2: of that, just a complete mess out of the Epstein files.

51
00:02:59,440 --> 00:03:03,560
Speaker 2: Nobody can fire out why it all started with this

52
00:03:03,720 --> 00:03:07,280
Speaker 2: supposed client list. Now, Epstein never had any kind of

53
00:03:07,320 --> 00:03:10,680
Speaker 2: a sex business. There were no clients for any sex

54
00:03:10,800 --> 00:03:13,760
Speaker 2: nothing like that. Epstein there were always a lot of

55
00:03:13,760 --> 00:03:15,520
Speaker 2: women around, and if you were one of his friends

56
00:03:15,520 --> 00:03:17,560
Speaker 2: and he came to his parties or his house, he

57
00:03:17,600 --> 00:03:20,240
Speaker 2: always had plenty of women to introduce you to. They

58
00:03:20,240 --> 00:03:24,320
Speaker 2: were older women, they were in their twenties, thirties, forties, fifties.

59
00:03:25,000 --> 00:03:28,639
Speaker 2: There were some underage women, but that's what Epstein personally liked.

60
00:03:28,680 --> 00:03:31,320
Speaker 2: He liked these underage women and maybe a friend or

61
00:03:31,320 --> 00:03:34,240
Speaker 2: two of his A lot of people think Prince Andrew.

62
00:03:34,639 --> 00:03:36,920
Speaker 2: But that was just a private thing. It had nothing

63
00:03:36,960 --> 00:03:39,680
Speaker 2: to do with clients. There was no lists. So it's

64
00:03:39,720 --> 00:03:42,080
Speaker 2: one thing for the public or you know, some fringe

65
00:03:42,080 --> 00:03:45,560
Speaker 2: groups online to start rumoring about a client list a

66
00:03:45,600 --> 00:03:47,520
Speaker 2: client list. But when you're in the Attorney General of

67
00:03:47,520 --> 00:03:50,280
Speaker 2: the United States, you should know what the hell you're

68
00:03:50,280 --> 00:03:54,560
Speaker 2: talking about. And she had the files that Biden Justice

69
00:03:54,560 --> 00:03:56,760
Speaker 2: Department had the files for four years. They went through it,

70
00:03:57,360 --> 00:03:59,560
Speaker 2: they read those files a million times. There was nothing

71
00:03:59,600 --> 00:04:02,040
Speaker 2: in there. Trump, there was nothing in there about a

72
00:04:02,120 --> 00:04:05,160
Speaker 2: client list. She should have known that. Yet way back

73
00:04:05,200 --> 00:04:08,040
Speaker 2: then she made things one hundred times worse by shooting

74
00:04:08,280 --> 00:04:10,400
Speaker 2: her mouth off claiming there was a client list.

75
00:04:10,760 --> 00:04:14,760
Speaker 3: The DOJ may be releasing the list of Jeffrey Epstein's clients.

76
00:04:15,080 --> 00:04:16,120
Speaker 2: Well, that really happened.

77
00:04:16,680 --> 00:04:20,000
Speaker 4: It's sitting on my desk right now to review. That's

78
00:04:20,040 --> 00:04:23,120
Speaker 4: been a directive by President Trump. I'm reviewing that. I'm

79
00:04:23,160 --> 00:04:27,560
Speaker 4: reviewing JFKs MLK files. That's all in the process of

80
00:04:27,600 --> 00:04:29,640
Speaker 4: being reviewed because that was done at the directive of

81
00:04:29,680 --> 00:04:31,520
Speaker 4: the president from all of these agencies.

82
00:04:31,560 --> 00:04:35,400
Speaker 3: So have you seen anything there? You said, Oh, my gosh,

83
00:04:35,720 --> 00:04:39,760
Speaker 3: not yet. Okay, Well, we'll check back with you.

84
00:04:39,839 --> 00:04:42,000
Speaker 2: Yeah, okay. That's one of the main reasons she's being fired.

85
00:04:42,000 --> 00:04:43,720
Speaker 2: There's no such thing as a client list for her

86
00:04:43,760 --> 00:04:46,640
Speaker 2: to say it was sitting on her desk. Obviously she

87
00:04:46,640 --> 00:04:48,400
Speaker 2: didn't know what the hell she was talking about, which

88
00:04:48,440 --> 00:04:51,800
Speaker 2: is fine, but don't shoot your mouth off on television.

89
00:04:52,440 --> 00:04:55,599
Speaker 2: And if you hadn't reviewed anything, don't be talking about

90
00:04:55,640 --> 00:04:58,960
Speaker 2: it on TV. So that's one reason. The other reason

91
00:04:59,120 --> 00:05:02,599
Speaker 2: is the failed prosecutions. Trump thought there was a pretty

92
00:05:02,600 --> 00:05:04,919
Speaker 2: good case against Letitia James, so did all most of

93
00:05:04,960 --> 00:05:09,039
Speaker 2: our great legal scholars and James call me. Those things

94
00:05:09,120 --> 00:05:11,000
Speaker 2: went nowhere. You could say, well, it's not her fault.

95
00:05:11,040 --> 00:05:13,400
Speaker 2: The grand jury wouldn't indict. But it's all about what

96
00:05:13,480 --> 00:05:16,440
Speaker 2: you present, and it's all about what you come up with.

97
00:05:16,480 --> 00:05:21,560
Speaker 2: There was plenty of stuff on Letitia James and call

98
00:05:21,680 --> 00:05:23,920
Speaker 2: me and all this. But so that's another reason. So

99
00:05:24,200 --> 00:05:26,200
Speaker 2: there were a lot of reasons, and she just had

100
00:05:26,240 --> 00:05:32,160
Speaker 2: to go. And she sort of knew that a few

101
00:05:33,160 --> 00:05:36,160
Speaker 2: couple months ago that she knew they weren't happy with her,

102
00:05:36,160 --> 00:05:37,760
Speaker 2: and she did a lot of stuff to try to

103
00:05:38,279 --> 00:05:41,000
Speaker 2: appease the president and winning back, and she thought maybe

104
00:05:41,000 --> 00:05:45,240
Speaker 2: she had succeeded at that, but the President on Monday

105
00:05:45,400 --> 00:05:49,880
Speaker 2: started talking to people about getting rid of her. And

106
00:05:49,920 --> 00:05:51,680
Speaker 2: then you know, they went to the Supreme Court to

107
00:05:51,760 --> 00:05:55,040
Speaker 2: sit in on the oral arguments. The President went there

108
00:05:55,360 --> 00:05:58,360
Speaker 2: and Pam Bondi went with him, and they rode together,

109
00:05:58,520 --> 00:06:01,240
Speaker 2: and the limo are two mile ride. It's not that

110
00:06:01,320 --> 00:06:04,359
Speaker 2: long a ride, short ride, but they rode to the

111
00:06:04,400 --> 00:06:06,800
Speaker 2: Supreme Court and then sat in the here and then

112
00:06:06,839 --> 00:06:11,560
Speaker 2: came back. Now, apparently he told her, apparently he fired

113
00:06:11,600 --> 00:06:15,279
Speaker 2: her during the Lemo ride. Going there. You think you'd

114
00:06:15,279 --> 00:06:18,400
Speaker 2: wait till you were leaving her, not while you're sitting

115
00:06:18,400 --> 00:06:21,640
Speaker 2: in the car. And if you ever seen that the Beast,

116
00:06:21,960 --> 00:06:24,960
Speaker 2: the Presidential Lemo, you know, when you're inside that thing,

117
00:06:25,640 --> 00:06:29,040
Speaker 2: it's really tight in there. There's no space in there

118
00:06:29,040 --> 00:06:32,760
Speaker 2: because the reason the Beast is bulletproof and bomb proof.

119
00:06:33,279 --> 00:06:36,760
Speaker 2: The walls, the windows, the doors are like a foot thick.

120
00:06:37,320 --> 00:06:39,719
Speaker 2: They're so thick on both sides that they take away

121
00:06:39,760 --> 00:06:42,480
Speaker 2: like two feet of the interior. So you're really crammed

122
00:06:42,520 --> 00:06:45,880
Speaker 2: together in there. And he told her his exact words,

123
00:06:46,800 --> 00:06:50,880
Speaker 2: I think it's time, told her she was out. They

124
00:06:50,920 --> 00:06:53,440
Speaker 2: went to the Supreme Court, they sat through the oral arguments,

125
00:06:53,480 --> 00:06:57,120
Speaker 2: apparently on the way out after the A couple hours later,

126
00:06:57,120 --> 00:07:00,680
Speaker 2: after the oral argument, she asked him could she just

127
00:07:00,760 --> 00:07:03,520
Speaker 2: stay till the summer. Could she leave in the summer.

128
00:07:03,560 --> 00:07:07,280
Speaker 2: She just wanted a couple more months, and he said, no,

129
00:07:07,400 --> 00:07:09,080
Speaker 2: you can't do that. She had to go right away.

130
00:07:09,120 --> 00:07:13,880
Speaker 2: She'll stay another couple weeks. Need her for transitional stuff.

131
00:07:15,000 --> 00:07:17,920
Speaker 2: The other thing is they've told her they will get

132
00:07:17,960 --> 00:07:21,520
Speaker 2: her a very very good job in the private sector

133
00:07:22,120 --> 00:07:25,520
Speaker 2: in Florida, very high paying job at a law firm.

134
00:07:25,640 --> 00:07:28,520
Speaker 2: She'll make herself a lot of money. I'll make sure

135
00:07:28,560 --> 00:07:31,600
Speaker 2: that happens. Now, who's going to replace her? Well, names

136
00:07:31,600 --> 00:07:34,520
Speaker 2: are being floated. People are pushing for Ron DeSantis. He'd

137
00:07:34,560 --> 00:07:37,640
Speaker 2: probably be good at that because in real life he's

138
00:07:38,240 --> 00:07:41,760
Speaker 2: a vicious guy behind the scenes. Great governor, done a

139
00:07:41,760 --> 00:07:44,360
Speaker 2: phenomenal job as governor of Florida, probably the best governor

140
00:07:44,360 --> 00:07:47,400
Speaker 2: in America, but behind the scenes, a nasty, vicious guy.

141
00:07:48,400 --> 00:07:50,920
Speaker 2: So people are pushing him, but he will not get

142
00:07:50,960 --> 00:07:55,040
Speaker 2: it because two reasons. Trump knows that he's a vicious

143
00:07:55,080 --> 00:07:58,200
Speaker 2: guy in real life, and everybody's ever worked with him

144
00:07:58,280 --> 00:08:00,640
Speaker 2: or known him will be calling Trump's saying, don't give

145
00:08:00,720 --> 00:08:03,200
Speaker 2: him the job. I know some people don't like to

146
00:08:03,200 --> 00:08:05,080
Speaker 2: hear this because he's such a great governor, but behind

147
00:08:05,120 --> 00:08:07,960
Speaker 2: the scenes he is so vicious, so rude, so nasty

148
00:08:08,480 --> 00:08:13,120
Speaker 2: to everybody he encounters privately, that everybody will rush to

149
00:08:13,120 --> 00:08:15,120
Speaker 2: stop that. And the other reason Trump won't appoint him.

150
00:08:15,640 --> 00:08:18,119
Speaker 2: He needs him to be governor of Florida because Trump

151
00:08:18,160 --> 00:08:20,520
Speaker 2: does a lot of stuff in Florida, from mar A

152
00:08:20,600 --> 00:08:22,400
Speaker 2: Lago to all of his price. He's got a lot

153
00:08:22,440 --> 00:08:25,160
Speaker 2: of property in Florida that he needs a governor that's

154
00:08:25,200 --> 00:08:27,080
Speaker 2: going to help him out, so he will not remove

155
00:08:27,160 --> 00:08:31,480
Speaker 2: him as governor. But the other thing is he likes

156
00:08:31,520 --> 00:08:33,720
Speaker 2: Todd Blanche, and Todd Blanche has been running things for

157
00:08:33,880 --> 00:08:37,320
Speaker 2: the last couple of months. Very happy with Todd Blanche Blanche.

158
00:08:37,559 --> 00:08:41,040
Speaker 2: So there may be no hurry. There may be no hurry,

159
00:08:41,280 --> 00:08:45,120
Speaker 2: And whoever he appoints going to need confirmation, and those

160
00:08:45,120 --> 00:08:48,480
Speaker 2: Democrats in Congress will hold it up forever and ever,

161
00:08:48,559 --> 00:08:51,280
Speaker 2: and that could take forever. But that's fine. He's happy

162
00:08:51,640 --> 00:08:54,760
Speaker 2: Todd Blanche is acting Attorney General and he can stay

163
00:08:54,800 --> 00:08:56,319
Speaker 2: that way. He'll be happy to keep it that way

164
00:08:56,360 --> 00:09:02,000
Speaker 2: for a long time. In the middle of about eleven days,

165
00:09:02,160 --> 00:09:04,720
Speaker 2: I think it's April fourteenth, supposed to be a hearing

166
00:09:05,200 --> 00:09:09,520
Speaker 2: Congressional Committee and Pam Bondi scheduled to testify on her

167
00:09:09,559 --> 00:09:16,120
Speaker 2: handling of the Epstein files. So the Justice Department is saying, well,

168
00:09:16,160 --> 00:09:19,600
Speaker 2: she's out, so let's have Todd Blanche come testify. The

169
00:09:19,640 --> 00:09:25,440
Speaker 2: Congressional Committee saying absolutely not. It's Epstein's Bondie that we

170
00:09:25,480 --> 00:09:27,400
Speaker 2: want to talk about the Epstein files, which it's got

171
00:09:27,440 --> 00:09:29,560
Speaker 2: to be her, so she'll still have to do that hearing.

172
00:09:31,760 --> 00:09:34,360
Speaker 2: But once you're out, it's really kind of a meaningless

173
00:09:34,840 --> 00:09:38,000
Speaker 2: so I don't think anything will happen in that hearing. Hey,

174
00:09:38,040 --> 00:09:43,440
Speaker 2: the No King's rally. These crazy Democrats now protesting things

175
00:09:43,480 --> 00:09:47,520
Speaker 2: that don't even exist, protesting things in their imagination. But

176
00:09:47,640 --> 00:09:51,320
Speaker 2: the No King's Rally. President Trump was asked about it.

177
00:09:51,400 --> 00:09:53,320
Speaker 2: Did they call me king? Now? Do you believe it?

178
00:09:53,800 --> 00:09:54,280
Speaker 2: No King?

179
00:09:55,400 --> 00:09:57,560
Speaker 1: I'm such a king. I can't get a ball room approved.

180
00:10:01,040 --> 00:10:03,560
Speaker 1: It's pretty amazing. I'm a king. If I was a king,

181
00:10:04,240 --> 00:10:06,080
Speaker 1: we'd be doing a lot more. I'm doing a lot,

182
00:10:06,320 --> 00:10:08,000
Speaker 1: but I could be doing a lot more if I

183
00:10:08,040 --> 00:10:08,439
Speaker 1: was a king.

184
00:10:09,280 --> 00:10:14,160
Speaker 2: It's pretty good. Iran. Here's the latest. We took out

185
00:10:14,200 --> 00:10:18,360
Speaker 2: their most important, finest, the most expensive, brand new bridge

186
00:10:18,360 --> 00:10:22,720
Speaker 2: they built. Yesterday we took out it's the tallest bridge

187
00:10:22,720 --> 00:10:26,559
Speaker 2: in Iran. It's a very important structure. It connects to

188
00:10:26,600 --> 00:10:30,360
Speaker 2: Tehran and Karaj. It was blown to bits, very very

189
00:10:30,600 --> 00:10:33,839
Speaker 2: very key infrastructure figure of Iran. We blew it up

190
00:10:34,480 --> 00:10:38,040
Speaker 2: and demolished it. Now this war has come down to

191
00:10:38,240 --> 00:10:42,760
Speaker 2: just one thing, will the will of the Iranians to resist,

192
00:10:43,360 --> 00:10:45,640
Speaker 2: and they believe we don't have the will to keep

193
00:10:45,720 --> 00:10:49,600
Speaker 2: going and finish the job. So that's their strategy that

194
00:10:49,640 --> 00:10:51,480
Speaker 2: we just don't have the will to finish this, that

195
00:10:51,559 --> 00:10:54,320
Speaker 2: will give up and go away at some point. And

196
00:10:54,360 --> 00:10:58,839
Speaker 2: you got to admire the crazy nutjob Iranian leaders, the

197
00:10:59,240 --> 00:11:01,880
Speaker 2: will they have. They'll just let the whole place get

198
00:11:01,880 --> 00:11:05,679
Speaker 2: blown up. So we're going to escalate slowly. We've been

199
00:11:05,800 --> 00:11:09,360
Speaker 2: a massive amount of bombing rains, quantity has been there,

200
00:11:09,600 --> 00:11:11,840
Speaker 2: so now they'll go for quality. They'll start taking out

201
00:11:12,200 --> 00:11:16,679
Speaker 2: more each day, more and more and more important infrastructure.

202
00:11:17,760 --> 00:11:22,720
Speaker 2: Hopefully that'll break the will of the Iranians. But it's

203
00:11:22,960 --> 00:11:24,600
Speaker 2: going to get to a point where there's just not

204
00:11:24,679 --> 00:11:27,679
Speaker 2: much left to go after and we'll see that. You're

205
00:11:27,679 --> 00:11:31,760
Speaker 2: going to hear all the left wing fake news crowds say, well,

206
00:11:31,760 --> 00:11:33,720
Speaker 2: there's no way to finish it without ground troops. Well,

207
00:11:33,720 --> 00:11:35,880
Speaker 2: actually there is. You could. You can finish a war

208
00:11:35,920 --> 00:11:39,080
Speaker 2: without ground troops. Take a look at Japan World War two.

209
00:11:39,640 --> 00:11:41,600
Speaker 2: We were able to finish that and get a surrender

210
00:11:41,920 --> 00:11:45,280
Speaker 2: without sending in any ground troops. It's been done many,

211
00:11:45,360 --> 00:11:50,959
Speaker 2: many times NATO. There are some people wondering about these

212
00:11:51,040 --> 00:11:54,760
Speaker 2: NATO countries and these NATO leaders. It's as if they're

213
00:11:54,840 --> 00:11:57,839
Speaker 2: trying to get the US to pull out. I mean,

214
00:11:57,880 --> 00:12:01,640
Speaker 2: they have done things that are just absolutely preposterous. And

215
00:12:01,760 --> 00:12:04,079
Speaker 2: NATO partner's supposed to help you when you need help

216
00:12:04,679 --> 00:12:08,680
Speaker 2: join the fight. Well not only didn't they do that,

217
00:12:08,920 --> 00:12:12,440
Speaker 2: but even the most bare minimum things like let us

218
00:12:12,559 --> 00:12:15,600
Speaker 2: use the air base in Italy, no, let us use

219
00:12:15,600 --> 00:12:20,120
Speaker 2: your airspace no. So even the most untiniest, little bare

220
00:12:20,160 --> 00:12:23,760
Speaker 2: minimum things NATO has refused. So it's if as if

221
00:12:23,800 --> 00:12:28,160
Speaker 2: they're trying to get us to leave. And you've seen

222
00:12:28,200 --> 00:12:32,560
Speaker 2: in this Iran battle, Israel right there side by side

223
00:12:32,600 --> 00:12:36,439
Speaker 2: with US, and Saudi Arabia right there side by side

224
00:12:36,480 --> 00:12:38,559
Speaker 2: with us. We're getting help from Kuwait, We're getting help

225
00:12:38,600 --> 00:12:42,920
Speaker 2: from Cutter. Nothing from NATO, not even bare minimum, little

226
00:12:42,960 --> 00:12:47,120
Speaker 2: tiny things, nothing from NATO. So it's kind of a

227
00:12:47,160 --> 00:12:49,920
Speaker 2: no brainer then just to pull out of NATO. Here's

228
00:12:49,920 --> 00:12:50,600
Speaker 2: Marco Rubio.

229
00:12:50,760 --> 00:12:52,559
Speaker 5: When we need them to allow us to use their

230
00:12:52,559 --> 00:12:55,840
Speaker 5: military bases, their answer is no. Then why are we

231
00:12:55,920 --> 00:12:57,720
Speaker 5: in NATO? You have to ask that question. Why do

232
00:12:57,800 --> 00:13:00,760
Speaker 5: we have billions and billions of dollars, hundreds of billions

233
00:13:00,800 --> 00:13:03,439
Speaker 5: of dollars over the years, trillions of dollars and all

234
00:13:03,480 --> 00:13:06,240
Speaker 5: these American forces stationed in the region. If we can

235
00:13:06,280 --> 00:13:08,880
Speaker 5: only use we can in our time of need. We're

236
00:13:08,920 --> 00:13:11,040
Speaker 5: not going to be allowed to use those bases. So

237
00:13:11,200 --> 00:13:15,199
Speaker 5: I think there's no doubt. Unfortunately, after this conflict is concluded,

238
00:13:15,400 --> 00:13:18,040
Speaker 5: we are going to have to re examine that relationship.

239
00:13:18,040 --> 00:13:19,599
Speaker 5: We're going to have to re examine the value of

240
00:13:19,679 --> 00:13:21,319
Speaker 5: NATO and that alliance for our country.

241
00:13:21,440 --> 00:13:23,800
Speaker 2: Yeah. I mean, if we're spending all, first of all,

242
00:13:23,840 --> 00:13:26,520
Speaker 2: the financing of NATO, it's all us. It's mostly US

243
00:13:26,559 --> 00:13:30,679
Speaker 2: financing it troops, ground troops. You know, left wing claims

244
00:13:30,679 --> 00:13:32,800
Speaker 2: they don't want any ground troops. We've got ground troops

245
00:13:32,840 --> 00:13:35,680
Speaker 2: all over Europe and we can't count on NATO even

246
00:13:35,720 --> 00:13:40,480
Speaker 2: for the tiniest little thing. Probably is time to get out. Hey,

247
00:13:40,520 --> 00:13:43,319
Speaker 2: here's some good news. You know, Barry Weiss is taken

248
00:13:43,360 --> 00:13:46,680
Speaker 2: over at CBS and trying to clean it up, trying

249
00:13:46,679 --> 00:13:49,200
Speaker 2: to get it back somewhere towards the middle instead of

250
00:13:49,280 --> 00:13:52,880
Speaker 2: far left partisan. And word is she's going to shake

251
00:13:52,960 --> 00:13:56,840
Speaker 2: up sixty Minutes, reshuffle producers, all this stuff, and the

252
00:13:56,880 --> 00:13:59,920
Speaker 2: top talent should get rid of these people. You got Leslie,

253
00:14:00,400 --> 00:14:06,400
Speaker 2: she's eighty four. Wow. Bill Whittaker, seventy four. Scott Pelley,

254
00:14:06,880 --> 00:14:09,280
Speaker 2: who's the nastiest guy on the air, A nice guy

255
00:14:09,320 --> 00:14:12,839
Speaker 2: in real life, but on the air, vicious, nasty, over

256
00:14:12,920 --> 00:14:16,600
Speaker 2: the top, crazy partisan. Do you remember that commencement address

257
00:14:16,640 --> 00:14:19,400
Speaker 2: he made? It was a commencement speech where he went

258
00:14:19,440 --> 00:14:23,920
Speaker 2: over the top anti Trump partisan. It's totally inappropriate for

259
00:14:24,000 --> 00:14:29,200
Speaker 2: a college commencement speech, but also extremely inappropriate for somebody

260
00:14:29,240 --> 00:14:33,680
Speaker 2: who's supposed to be a neutral, unbiased news anchor. So

261
00:14:34,200 --> 00:14:35,880
Speaker 2: just for that speech, they should throw him the hell

262
00:14:35,920 --> 00:14:38,200
Speaker 2: out of there. But she says she wants to make

263
00:14:38,200 --> 00:14:43,080
Speaker 2: the show a tougher, harder hitting, investigative reporting, breaking news,

264
00:14:43,200 --> 00:14:47,040
Speaker 2: that sort of stuff. It's a good idea. It's also cheaper,

265
00:14:47,360 --> 00:14:50,920
Speaker 2: you know, the old sixty minutes where they do these

266
00:14:50,960 --> 00:14:53,520
Speaker 2: amazing stories. You know, they'd send to Mike Wallace to

267
00:14:54,760 --> 00:14:58,320
Speaker 2: Tibet to talk with the dolly somebody with a lama.

268
00:14:58,360 --> 00:15:00,280
Speaker 2: I mean that costs a fortune. You got to send

269
00:15:00,280 --> 00:15:03,280
Speaker 2: the whole crew for a month to Tibet. Then they'd

270
00:15:03,320 --> 00:15:05,280
Speaker 2: do another story on somebody in England. They'd send the

271
00:15:05,320 --> 00:15:08,440
Speaker 2: whole crew to England. Cost a fortune to do that show.

272
00:15:08,480 --> 00:15:10,920
Speaker 2: But back then, sixty minutes with the number one biggest

273
00:15:10,920 --> 00:15:15,040
Speaker 2: show in television with fifty sixty seventy five million viewers

274
00:15:15,040 --> 00:15:17,880
Speaker 2: in a week, you could have spent that kind of money.

275
00:15:18,120 --> 00:15:20,720
Speaker 2: Now it's like two million, one million. There is hardly

276
00:15:20,720 --> 00:15:23,800
Speaker 2: anybody watching. You can't afford to tell those kind of stories.

277
00:15:23,840 --> 00:15:26,240
Speaker 2: So breaking news you just sit there at the anchor

278
00:15:26,280 --> 00:15:30,320
Speaker 2: desk and just read it. It's a much much cheaper idea. Hey,

279
00:15:30,320 --> 00:15:33,840
Speaker 2: we'll take some calls. Next. Eight hundred three two one

280
00:15:34,520 --> 00:15:38,040
Speaker 2: zero seven ten is the number. Eight hundred three two

281
00:15:38,160 --> 00:15:39,840
Speaker 2: one zero seven ten
