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 --> 00:09:52,480
Speaker 2: Did they call me king?

178
00:09:52,559 --> 00:09:53,320
Speaker 5: Now? Do you believe it?

179
00:09:53,800 --> 00:09:54,280
Speaker 2: No King?

180
00:09:55,400 --> 00:09:57,560
Speaker 6: I'm such a king. I can't get a ball room approved.

181
00:10:01,040 --> 00:10:03,560
Speaker 6: It's pretty amazing. I'm a king. If I was a king,

182
00:10:04,240 --> 00:10:06,080
Speaker 6: we'd be doing a lot more. I'm doing a lot,

183
00:10:06,320 --> 00:10:07,800
Speaker 6: but I could be doing a lot more.

184
00:10:07,679 --> 00:10:12,120
Speaker 2: If I was a king. It's pretty good. Iran. Here's

185
00:10:12,160 --> 00:10:16,560
Speaker 2: the latest. We took out their most important, finest, the

186
00:10:16,600 --> 00:10:21,000
Speaker 2: most expensive, brand new bridge they built. Yesterday we took

187
00:10:21,040 --> 00:10:24,560
Speaker 2: out it's the tallest bridge in Iran. It's a very

188
00:10:24,559 --> 00:10:28,600
Speaker 2: important structure. It connects to Tehran and Karaj. It was

189
00:10:28,679 --> 00:10:32,960
Speaker 2: blown to bits, very very very key infrastructure figure of Iran.

190
00:10:33,080 --> 00:10:37,080
Speaker 2: We blew it up and demolished it. Now this war

191
00:10:37,200 --> 00:10:41,120
Speaker 2: has come down to just one thing, will the will

192
00:10:41,160 --> 00:10:44,760
Speaker 2: of the Iranians to resist, and they believe we don't

193
00:10:44,760 --> 00:10:47,679
Speaker 2: have the will to keep going and finish the job.

194
00:10:48,200 --> 00:10:50,439
Speaker 2: So that's their strategy that we just don't have the

195
00:10:50,480 --> 00:10:52,440
Speaker 2: will to finish this, that will give up and go

196
00:10:52,520 --> 00:10:55,440
Speaker 2: away at some point. And you got to admire the

197
00:10:55,600 --> 00:11:00,800
Speaker 2: crazy nutjob Iranian leaders, the will they have. They'll just

198
00:11:00,880 --> 00:11:03,120
Speaker 2: let the whole place get blown up. So we're going

199
00:11:03,200 --> 00:11:08,120
Speaker 2: to escalate slowly. We've been a massive amount of bombing rains,

200
00:11:08,200 --> 00:11:10,760
Speaker 2: quantity has been there, so now they'll go for quality.

201
00:11:10,800 --> 00:11:14,920
Speaker 2: They'll start taking out more each day, more and more

202
00:11:15,000 --> 00:11:20,000
Speaker 2: and more important infrastructure. Hopefully that'll break the will of

203
00:11:20,080 --> 00:11:24,000
Speaker 2: the Iranians. But it's going to get to a point

204
00:11:24,000 --> 00:11:26,640
Speaker 2: where there's just not much left to go after and

205
00:11:26,880 --> 00:11:29,079
Speaker 2: we'll see that. You're going to hear all the left

206
00:11:29,080 --> 00:11:32,280
Speaker 2: wing fake news crowds say, well, there's no way to

207
00:11:32,280 --> 00:11:34,680
Speaker 2: finish it without ground troops. Well, actually there is. You could.

208
00:11:35,000 --> 00:11:37,440
Speaker 2: You can finish a war without ground troops. Take a

209
00:11:37,440 --> 00:11:40,280
Speaker 2: look at Japan World War two. We were able to

210
00:11:40,320 --> 00:11:43,120
Speaker 2: finish that and get a surrender without sending in any

211
00:11:43,160 --> 00:11:49,440
Speaker 2: ground troops. It's been done many, many times NATO. There

212
00:11:49,480 --> 00:11:52,720
Speaker 2: are some people wondering about these NATO countries and these

213
00:11:52,800 --> 00:11:55,800
Speaker 2: NATO leaders. It's as if they're trying to get the

214
00:11:55,920 --> 00:11:59,200
Speaker 2: US to pull out. I mean, they have done things

215
00:11:59,520 --> 00:12:03,000
Speaker 2: that are just absolutely preposterous. And NATO partner's supposed to

216
00:12:03,000 --> 00:12:06,439
Speaker 2: help you when you need help join the fight. Well

217
00:12:07,520 --> 00:12:10,520
Speaker 2: not only didn't they do that, but even the most

218
00:12:10,600 --> 00:12:13,319
Speaker 2: bare minimum things like let us use the air base

219
00:12:13,360 --> 00:12:17,439
Speaker 2: in Italy, no, let us use your airspace no. So

220
00:12:17,720 --> 00:12:22,119
Speaker 2: even the most untiniest, little bare minimum things NATO has refused.

221
00:12:22,400 --> 00:12:24,880
Speaker 2: So it's if as if they're trying to get us

222
00:12:24,880 --> 00:12:30,959
Speaker 2: to leave. And you've seen in this Iran battle, Israel

223
00:12:31,160 --> 00:12:34,280
Speaker 2: right there side by side with US, and Saudi Arabia

224
00:12:34,400 --> 00:12:37,319
Speaker 2: right there side by side with us. We're getting help

225
00:12:37,320 --> 00:12:41,000
Speaker 2: from Kuwait, We're getting help from Cutter. Nothing from NATO,

226
00:12:41,240 --> 00:12:45,760
Speaker 2: not even bare minimum, little tiny things, nothing from NATO.

227
00:12:45,920 --> 00:12:48,640
Speaker 2: So it's kind of a no brainer then just to

228
00:12:48,720 --> 00:12:50,600
Speaker 2: pull out of NATO. Here's Marco Rubio.

229
00:12:50,760 --> 00:12:52,559
Speaker 7: When we need them to allow us to use their

230
00:12:52,559 --> 00:12:55,840
Speaker 7: military bases, their answer is no. Then why are we

231
00:12:55,920 --> 00:12:57,720
Speaker 7: in NATO? You have to ask that question. Why do

232
00:12:57,800 --> 00:13:00,760
Speaker 7: we have billions and billions of dollars, hundreds of billions

233
00:13:00,800 --> 00:13:03,439
Speaker 7: of dollars over the years, trillions of dollars and all

234
00:13:03,480 --> 00:13:06,240
Speaker 7: these American forces stationed in the region. If we can

235
00:13:06,280 --> 00:13:08,880
Speaker 7: only use we can in our time of need. We're

236
00:13:08,920 --> 00:13:11,040
Speaker 7: not going to be allowed to use those bases. So

237
00:13:11,200 --> 00:13:15,199
Speaker 7: I think there's no doubt. Unfortunately, after this conflict is concluded,

238
00:13:15,400 --> 00:13:18,040
Speaker 7: we are going to have to re examine that relationship.

239
00:13:18,040 --> 00:13:19,599
Speaker 7: We're going to have to re examine the value of

240
00:13:19,679 --> 00:13:21,319
Speaker 7: NATO and that alliance for our country.

241
00:13:21,440 --> 00:13:21,640
Speaker 5: Yeah.

242
00:13:21,640 --> 00:13:23,920
Speaker 2: I mean, if we're spending all, first of all, the

243
00:13:23,960 --> 00:13:27,040
Speaker 2: financing of NATO, it's all us. It's mostly US financing

244
00:13:27,120 --> 00:13:30,760
Speaker 2: it troops, ground troops. You know, left wing claims they

245
00:13:30,760 --> 00:13:32,960
Speaker 2: don't want any ground troops. We've got ground troops all

246
00:13:33,000 --> 00:13:35,800
Speaker 2: over Europe and we can't count on NATO even for

247
00:13:35,840 --> 00:13:40,480
Speaker 2: the tiniest little thing. Probably is time to get out. Hey,

248
00:13:40,520 --> 00:13:43,319
Speaker 2: here's some good news. You know, Barry Weiss is taken

249
00:13:43,360 --> 00:13:46,680
Speaker 2: over at CBS and trying to clean it up, trying

250
00:13:46,679 --> 00:13:49,200
Speaker 2: to get it back somewhere towards the middle instead of

251
00:13:49,280 --> 00:13:52,880
Speaker 2: far left partisan. And word is she's going to shake

252
00:13:52,960 --> 00:13:56,840
Speaker 2: up sixty Minutes, reshuffle producers, all this stuff, and the

253
00:13:56,880 --> 00:13:59,920
Speaker 2: top talent should get rid of these people. You got Leslie,

254
00:14:00,400 --> 00:14:01,360
Speaker 2: she's eighty four.

255
00:14:01,960 --> 00:14:02,480
Speaker 5: Wow.

256
00:14:03,160 --> 00:14:08,280
Speaker 2: Bill Whittaker, seventy four. Scott Pelley, who's the nastiest guy

257
00:14:08,320 --> 00:14:09,960
Speaker 2: on the air, A nice guy in real life, but

258
00:14:10,040 --> 00:14:14,599
Speaker 2: on the air, vicious, nasty, over the top, crazy partisan.

259
00:14:14,960 --> 00:14:17,920
Speaker 2: Do you remember that commencement address he made? It was

260
00:14:17,960 --> 00:14:20,680
Speaker 2: a commencement speech where he went over the top anti

261
00:14:20,800 --> 00:14:25,760
Speaker 2: Trump partisan. It's totally inappropriate for a college commencement speech,

262
00:14:25,800 --> 00:14:30,120
Speaker 2: but also extremely inappropriate for somebody who's supposed to be

263
00:14:30,200 --> 00:14:35,000
Speaker 2: a neutral, unbiased news anchor. So just for that speech,

264
00:14:35,000 --> 00:14:36,880
Speaker 2: they should throw him the hell out of there. But

265
00:14:37,240 --> 00:14:39,440
Speaker 2: she says she wants to make the show a tougher,

266
00:14:39,560 --> 00:14:44,080
Speaker 2: harder hitting, investigative reporting, breaking news, that sort of stuff.

267
00:14:45,360 --> 00:14:48,880
Speaker 2: It's a good idea. It's also cheaper, you know, the

268
00:14:48,920 --> 00:14:52,120
Speaker 2: old sixty minutes where they do these amazing stories. You know,

269
00:14:52,160 --> 00:14:56,640
Speaker 2: they'd send to Mike Wallace to Tibet to talk with

270
00:14:56,680 --> 00:14:59,040
Speaker 2: the dolly somebody with a lama. I mean that costs

271
00:14:59,040 --> 00:15:01,560
Speaker 2: a fortune. You got to send the whole crew for

272
00:15:01,880 --> 00:15:04,080
Speaker 2: a month to Tibet. Then they'd do another story on

273
00:15:04,120 --> 00:15:06,440
Speaker 2: somebody in England. They'd send the whole crew to cost

274
00:15:06,520 --> 00:15:09,480
Speaker 2: a fortune to do that show. But back then, sixty

275
00:15:09,520 --> 00:15:12,360
Speaker 2: minutes with the number one biggest show in television with

276
00:15:12,480 --> 00:15:15,840
Speaker 2: fifty sixty seventy five million viewers in a week, you

277
00:15:15,920 --> 00:15:18,680
Speaker 2: could have spent that kind of money. Now it's like

278
00:15:18,720 --> 00:15:21,760
Speaker 2: two million, one million. There is hardly anybody watching. You

279
00:15:21,800 --> 00:15:24,680
Speaker 2: can't afford to tell this kind of story. So breaking News,

280
00:15:25,080 --> 00:15:27,320
Speaker 2: just sit there at the anchor desk and just read it.

281
00:15:27,320 --> 00:15:30,800
Speaker 2: It's a much much cheaper idea. Hey, we'll take some

282
00:15:30,800 --> 00:15:35,400
Speaker 2: calls next. Eight hundred three two one zero seven ten

283
00:15:35,520 --> 00:15:39,840
Speaker 2: is the number. Eight hundred three two one zero seven ten.

284
00:15:40,200 --> 00:15:43,640
Speaker 1: Set up pre sat on the iHeartRadio app to doubor

285
00:15:43,840 --> 00:15:47,560
Speaker 1: to hear Mark live. Set another for Mark's podcast to

286
00:15:47,640 --> 00:15:48,880
Speaker 1: hear him any time.

287
00:15:49,600 --> 00:15:54,480
Speaker 2: Now back to Mark zimon on do woor Hey, let's

288
00:15:54,480 --> 00:15:57,960
Speaker 2: tike them calls. Eight hundred three two one zero seven

289
00:15:58,040 --> 00:16:02,040
Speaker 2: ten is the number eight hundred three two one zero

290
00:16:02,200 --> 00:16:05,160
Speaker 2: seven ten. Let's go to John and the paramus. John,

291
00:16:05,200 --> 00:16:07,000
Speaker 2: how you doing good?

292
00:16:07,160 --> 00:16:10,200
Speaker 8: Listen? You know I've been a Springsteen fan from day one.

293
00:16:10,480 --> 00:16:13,120
Speaker 8: I've seen him many at times, loved his music and

294
00:16:13,160 --> 00:16:17,160
Speaker 8: everything else. But now, after reading the review yesterday in

295
00:16:17,200 --> 00:16:20,360
Speaker 8: the Times, you couldn't pay me to go see him.

296
00:16:21,760 --> 00:16:24,960
Speaker 8: He has really lost his way. Half the half of

297
00:16:24,960 --> 00:16:26,040
Speaker 8: the concert.

298
00:16:25,720 --> 00:16:29,760
Speaker 2: He talks well in his defense, in his defense, not

299
00:16:29,840 --> 00:16:31,720
Speaker 2: just him, but when you're one of these big superstar

300
00:16:31,880 --> 00:16:35,400
Speaker 2: gods of music seventies and into the eighties, by the

301
00:16:35,440 --> 00:16:39,200
Speaker 2: time it's thirty years later, you can't get hit records anymore.

302
00:16:39,000 --> 00:16:42,840
Speaker 2: You're totally irrelevant. All you are is you can do concerts.

303
00:16:42,880 --> 00:16:44,640
Speaker 2: That's all you can do. You'll be the older statesman

304
00:16:44,680 --> 00:16:47,040
Speaker 2: doing the concerts. But they can't. They all try to

305
00:16:47,080 --> 00:16:48,880
Speaker 2: get back in the game with a hit record or

306
00:16:49,200 --> 00:16:52,000
Speaker 2: try to latch onto something. Why were you a Springsteen

307
00:16:52,080 --> 00:16:54,200
Speaker 2: fan back then? What was it about this way?

308
00:16:54,240 --> 00:16:55,920
Speaker 8: Because I was younger s fifty years I was. I'm

309
00:16:55,920 --> 00:16:57,960
Speaker 8: from Jersey of s fifty years ago. I loved him,

310
00:16:58,040 --> 00:17:00,840
Speaker 8: he was great. I loved his music, rock and rolling.

311
00:17:01,120 --> 00:17:03,840
Speaker 8: But God, I mean, he goes on and if you

312
00:17:03,880 --> 00:17:06,199
Speaker 8: read the review, I told my wife, my wife is

313
00:17:06,240 --> 00:17:09,320
Speaker 8: going with her girlfriend. I wouldn't go. She's going in April. Yeah,

314
00:17:09,480 --> 00:17:13,800
Speaker 8: I said, Now, I'm definitely convinced I wouldn't go. I wouldn't, couldn't.

315
00:17:13,800 --> 00:17:17,200
Speaker 2: But even back then he was great musically. But those

316
00:17:17,240 --> 00:17:21,080
Speaker 2: songs Born to Run jungle Land, yelling and screaming. What

317
00:17:21,119 --> 00:17:23,119
Speaker 2: the hell was he actually singing about? I still don't know.

318
00:17:25,000 --> 00:17:25,399
Speaker 8: I don't know.

319
00:17:25,560 --> 00:17:26,480
Speaker 9: It's just the way I was.

320
00:17:26,600 --> 00:17:28,959
Speaker 8: It was just my generation. I guess that's all right.

321
00:17:29,000 --> 00:17:30,919
Speaker 2: But what was he singing about?

322
00:17:31,480 --> 00:17:34,760
Speaker 8: Well, you have car I have cars and and girls

323
00:17:34,840 --> 00:17:37,480
Speaker 8: and working hard and work, you know, trying to get ahead.

324
00:17:37,960 --> 00:17:40,320
Speaker 2: Yeah, listen to the Beatles, I want to hold your hand.

325
00:17:40,320 --> 00:17:44,560
Speaker 2: I can understand that song, Michelle my Bell, I understand that.

326
00:17:44,680 --> 00:17:47,320
Speaker 2: But down in jungle Land, what was he singing? What

327
00:17:47,480 --> 00:17:48,280
Speaker 2: that was that all about?

328
00:17:48,280 --> 00:17:48,359
Speaker 5: That?

329
00:17:48,600 --> 00:17:51,040
Speaker 8: Well, you know, the struggle, life's struggle, and he never

330
00:17:51,080 --> 00:17:53,359
Speaker 8: really he struggled a little bit, and then he hasn't

331
00:17:53,359 --> 00:17:55,320
Speaker 8: struggled in forty five years.

332
00:17:55,800 --> 00:17:58,280
Speaker 2: Yeah, what life's struggle. I don't know this. I mean,

333
00:17:58,600 --> 00:18:01,040
Speaker 2: all right, it's not issue. A lot of people love

334
00:18:01,080 --> 00:18:03,120
Speaker 2: Springsteen back then, I never quite got it.

335
00:18:03,160 --> 00:18:04,840
Speaker 8: But I tell you a lot of people I know

336
00:18:04,960 --> 00:18:07,560
Speaker 8: are really not happy with him at all. A lot

337
00:18:07,560 --> 00:18:10,720
Speaker 8: of people I feel the same way about I am

338
00:18:10,960 --> 00:18:12,800
Speaker 8: about the way he used to be.

339
00:18:12,920 --> 00:18:16,520
Speaker 2: That there's that old expression, there's no fool like an

340
00:18:16,560 --> 00:18:22,240
Speaker 2: old fool. He's a booster boy for it. Yeah, that's

341
00:18:22,240 --> 00:18:25,360
Speaker 2: the other thing, you know. I guess when he started

342
00:18:26,080 --> 00:18:28,639
Speaker 2: and he wore those you know, those T shirts and

343
00:18:28,800 --> 00:18:32,640
Speaker 2: what's that stuff around his wrist, those wristbands and the

344
00:18:32,680 --> 00:18:35,200
Speaker 2: motorcycle boots and the jeans, and he was But back

345
00:18:35,200 --> 00:18:37,920
Speaker 2: then he was twenty five riding the motorcycle. He's now

346
00:18:37,920 --> 00:18:41,680
Speaker 2: an eighty year old multi multi, multi millionaire. You don't

347
00:18:41,720 --> 00:18:42,800
Speaker 2: need to wear all that stuff.

348
00:18:43,080 --> 00:18:43,240
Speaker 5: You know.

349
00:18:43,280 --> 00:18:45,320

350
00:18:45,400 --> 00:18:48,520
Speaker 2: any moment, and he need like an orthopedic seat on

351

360
00:19:15,560 --> 00:19:18,680
Speaker 9: going to see Corsy Still Snash thirty years ago because

361
00:19:18,680 --> 00:19:21,119
Speaker 9: all they did was preaching, lecture you on being a

362
00:19:21,200 --> 00:19:22,399
Speaker 9: lunatic and stuff like that.

363
00:19:22,440 --> 00:19:25,520

364
00:19:25,560 --> 00:19:28,400
Speaker 2: they're supposed to do that. But it's now twenty twenty six.

365
00:19:28,840 --> 00:19:31,840

Speaker 9: No, I never got Bruce Springsteen. I never got Dave

369
00:19:38,880 --> 00:19:41,200
Speaker 9: Matthews either. You know, I came from the Beatles generation,

00:19:41,320 --> 00:19:44,760
Speaker 9: the Motown, I mean, the sixties, seventies, early eighties was

371
00:19:44,760 --> 00:19:47,119
Speaker 9: great music. And then you know the old time country.

372
00:19:47,240 --> 00:19:49,600
Speaker 9: This new country is brutal. Tou that's no good?

373
00:19:49,760 --> 00:19:51,399
Speaker 2: Yeah, med, but I.

374
00:19:51,400 --> 00:19:55,160

00:20:11,359 --> 00:20:13,560
Speaker 2: Yeah, well, springs Thin could do it. Dancing in the

00:20:13,640 --> 00:20:17,879
Speaker 2: Dark had a great hook and ye hey, and I

383
00:20:18,000 --> 00:20:20,520
Speaker 2: was a DJ. I remember we'd played jungle Land. You

384
00:20:20,560 --> 00:20:22,240
Speaker 2: know why because it was like twelve minutes. It was

385
00:20:22,280 --> 00:20:25,040
Speaker 2: a back then, it was a way you could go

Speaker 2: to the men's room. But thanks for calling. Let's go

387

389
00:20:34,400 --> 00:20:37,200
Speaker 10: think all that botox is robed Springsteen's brain.

390
00:20:37,280 --> 00:20:40,080
Speaker 2: Why if people keep sitting at botox or plastic surgery.

391
00:20:40,240 --> 00:20:43,199
Speaker 10: He look at him, he looks like he's stretched like

Speaker 10: a drumskin stretched over a.

393
00:20:47,440 --> 00:20:49,920

Speaker 2: He looks even older now.

395
00:20:52,280 --> 00:20:55,200
Speaker 10: I think so. I had a quick sixty minute story

396
00:20:55,240 --> 00:20:58,200
Speaker 10: when I worked over at the CBS studios. Over there,

397
00:20:58,240 --> 00:21:00,920
Speaker 10: every late in the week on Thursday Friday night, did

398
00:21:00,920 --> 00:21:05,280
Speaker 10: be a studio set up all dark with an easel lit,

399
00:21:05,359 --> 00:21:07,960
Speaker 10: And that's when they shot the clock. Yeah, they shot

Speaker 9: Yeah.

405
00:21:21,160 --> 00:21:23,920
Speaker 10: You'd see those guys doddling around the studio every once

406
00:21:23,960 --> 00:21:25,840
Speaker 10: in a while. It would be like Loyalty walking by.

407
00:21:25,920 --> 00:21:28,159
Speaker 10: You know, everybody would be in hush tones as they

408
00:21:28,160 --> 00:21:28,560
Speaker 10: walked by.

409
00:21:29,480 --> 00:21:31,640
Speaker 2: Yeah, well, I love Mike Wallace was a great friend,

410
00:21:31,640 --> 00:21:36,200
Speaker 2: and he was one of our most a little crusty,

411
00:21:36,280 --> 00:21:39,679
Speaker 2: but yeah, all right, thanks for calling you. Mike Wallace.

412
00:21:39,720 --> 00:21:41,320
Speaker 2: He was one of our most regular guests on this

413
00:21:41,400 --> 00:21:43,680
Speaker 2: show for a million years. We used to have Andy

414
00:21:43,760 --> 00:21:45,600
Speaker 2: Rooney on all the time, although he couldn't stand me.

415
00:21:45,680 --> 00:21:50,520
Speaker 2: I don't know, I don't exactly why, but he'd always

416
00:21:50,560 --> 00:21:51,040
Speaker 2: yell at me.

417
00:21:51,240 --> 00:21:51,440
Speaker 5: Uh.

418
00:21:51,480 --> 00:21:53,240
Speaker 2: And then Memory refused to come on the air for

419
00:21:53,280 --> 00:21:56,280
Speaker 2: a while, and then Mike Wallace convinced me he had

420
00:21:56,280 --> 00:21:58,680
Speaker 2: to come back on the air, and every timmy commanding him,

421
00:21:58,680 --> 00:22:00,200
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, because Mike Wallace is makee can.

422
00:22:00,200 --> 00:22:00,520
Speaker 5: Me do this?

423
00:22:01,359 --> 00:22:04,080
Speaker 2: But they were great, I mean they were like legends. Now,

424
00:22:05,359 --> 00:22:07,280
Speaker 2: who's the guy? You don't even know who these people

425
00:22:07,320 --> 00:22:09,359
Speaker 2: are anymore, but gota remember back then it was the

426
00:22:09,440 --> 00:22:12,000
Speaker 2: number one show in television, it's like sixty five million

427
00:22:12,040 --> 00:22:16,120
Speaker 2: people watching it, and you could afford to send a crew,

428
00:22:17,359 --> 00:22:19,919
Speaker 2: you know, to Antarctica to do a story. If you

429
00:22:19,960 --> 00:22:23,080
Speaker 2: watch it now, you can see they've been cutbacks. It's

430
00:22:23,080 --> 00:22:25,920
Speaker 2: this tiny audience. So if they're doing a story, it's

431
00:22:25,960 --> 00:22:30,320
Speaker 2: about something in Nayak where the crew can drive up

432
00:22:30,320 --> 00:22:32,080
Speaker 2: there for an hour and come right back. They don't

433
00:22:32,080 --> 00:22:34,280
Speaker 2: have to spend money on planes, hotels or any of that.

434
00:22:34,840 --> 00:22:37,360
Speaker 2: Let's go to Bill in Pennsylvania. Bill, how you doing?

435
00:22:38,480 --> 00:22:39,080

442
00:22:53,040 --> 00:22:58,119
Speaker 1: with Charles Grout in North Carolina. Yeah, oh jeez, I'm sorry.

443
00:22:58,440 --> 00:23:01,160
Speaker 2: That's okay, that's okay, that's that.

444
00:23:03,000 --> 00:23:03,359
Speaker 9: Delight.

445
00:23:03,720 --> 00:23:06,560
Speaker 2: Jim Beams got your throat, Yeah, go ahead, I said,

446
00:23:06,600 --> 00:23:07,080
Speaker 2: that's great.

447
00:23:08,240 --> 00:23:10,080
Speaker 1: He was drinking Jack Daniels, not me.

448
00:23:10,400 --> 00:23:12,840
Speaker 2: Yeah. Yeah. He was a Jack Daniels type.

449
00:23:14,600 --> 00:23:18,439
Speaker 1: And anyway, he had two families, which was weird.

450
00:23:18,920 --> 00:23:20,720
Speaker 2: That's right, I forgot about that. Turned out he was

451
00:23:20,720 --> 00:23:24,320
Speaker 2: a bigger mister. He used to do that feature called

452
00:23:24,440 --> 00:23:27,000
Speaker 2: on the Road where he'd go out on the road

453
00:23:27,080 --> 00:23:30,280
Speaker 2: and talk to Meantime, this guy had more activity on

454
00:23:30,320 --> 00:23:33,119
Speaker 2: the road. He would do stories about interesting people on

455
00:23:33,160 --> 00:23:35,199
Speaker 2: the road. Should have been doing a story about himself.

456
00:23:35,240 --> 00:23:37,160
Speaker 2: And what all the action this guy had going on.

457
00:23:37,600 --> 00:23:40,040
Speaker 1: Absolutely, I mean it was. It was one of the

458
00:23:40,080 --> 00:23:42,520
Speaker 1: funniest guys in the world. He could drink a bottle

459
00:23:42,560 --> 00:23:46,479
Speaker 1: of Jack Daniels and give a word perfect speech in

460
00:23:46,520 --> 00:23:50,399
Speaker 1: front of gymnasiums full of you know, an audience, and

461
00:23:50,440 --> 00:23:53,720
Speaker 1: it was just it was a miracle. I couldn't figure

462

00:24:03,760 --> 00:24:06,040
Speaker 1: was and I wanted to ask you, I would agree

469
00:24:11,560 --> 00:24:16,560
Speaker 1: we have to watch these polls. Uh huh they're going

470
00:24:16,600 --> 00:24:19,240
Speaker 1: on because we want to see where the Democrats are

471
00:24:19,280 --> 00:24:20,320
Speaker 1: spending their money.

472
00:24:20,600 --> 00:24:22,760

Speaker 5: Ten wr.

486
00:25:00,640 --> 00:25:03,560
Speaker 2: Well, let's talk to the Dean himself, Ed Rollins, the

487
00:25:03,560 --> 00:25:06,200
Speaker 2: greatest political analyst. He's been in a lot of white houses,

488
00:25:06,480 --> 00:25:08,920
Speaker 2: run a lot of campaigns, and he's with us now.

489
00:25:09,080 --> 00:25:10,520
Speaker 2: Ed Rollins, how you doing.

490
00:25:11,240 --> 00:25:11,680
Speaker 5: Good morning?

491
00:25:11,720 --> 00:25:14,879
Speaker 2: How are you very good? Hey? What do you think

492
00:25:14,920 --> 00:25:17,919
Speaker 2: getting rid of Pam BONDI probably a good idea, A

493
00:25:17,920 --> 00:25:18,720
Speaker 2: bit of a bumbler.

494
00:25:18,760 --> 00:25:23,560
Speaker 5: I think she obviously is too strident for the jobs.

495
00:25:23,560 --> 00:25:26,720
Speaker 5: He ininated a lot of people and didn't do what

496
00:25:26,760 --> 00:25:29,679
Speaker 5: Trump wanted. The critical thing I think is the timing,

497
00:25:30,320 --> 00:25:34,040
Speaker 5: and I worry from a communication perspective, it's two hundred

498
00:25:34,040 --> 00:25:37,560
Speaker 5: and thirteen days to the election. I would not go

499
00:25:37,600 --> 00:25:40,320
Speaker 5: to another fight. If I was the president of the

500
00:25:40,359 --> 00:25:43,960
Speaker 5: President's team, I just leave the number two guy in

501
00:25:44,000 --> 00:25:46,200
Speaker 5: there for as long as period as you can and

502
00:25:46,359 --> 00:25:49,320
Speaker 5: straighten things out as best you can. What you can't

503
00:25:49,320 --> 00:25:52,760
Speaker 5: have is every day taken away from your story. We're

504
00:25:52,760 --> 00:25:55,280
Speaker 5: in the middle of a war, and obviously the war

505
00:25:55,320 --> 00:25:58,480
Speaker 5: has gone all our side so far. But at the

506
00:25:58,520 --> 00:25:59,960
Speaker 5: end of the day, when you get into the ground

507
00:26:00,080 --> 00:26:02,159
Speaker 5: in battle, which is what apparently the President wants to

508
00:26:02,160 --> 00:26:04,520
Speaker 5: do or we'll do, uh, those are going to be

509
00:26:04,520 --> 00:26:06,560
Speaker 5: fired back. We now have we now have to uh

510
00:26:06,960 --> 00:26:11,680
Speaker 5: two poduts that are down according to this morning's uh stories,

511
00:26:11,760 --> 00:26:14,280
Speaker 5: and you know what's gonna happen those guys. They're alive,

512
00:26:14,359 --> 00:26:17,879
Speaker 5: but they basically be uh uh you know. I just

513
00:26:17,880 --> 00:26:20,280
Speaker 5: think it's important that the president speech here that I

514
00:26:20,400 --> 00:26:22,800
Speaker 5: was a disaster. He didn't didn't add anything to the

515
00:26:22,920 --> 00:26:27,360
Speaker 5: to the the dialogue. He could have done that speech anytime,

516
00:26:27,560 --> 00:26:30,960
Speaker 5: four weeks ago, four weeks from now, and it's just uh,

517
00:26:31,520 --> 00:26:32,920
Speaker 5: you know, we've got a week of which is sort

518
00:26:32,960 --> 00:26:35,520
Speaker 5: of obviously a very important thing, the space program that

519
00:26:35,600 --> 00:26:38,720
Speaker 5: we could be highlighting. H it's easter time and there's

520
00:26:38,720 --> 00:26:41,000
Speaker 5: a lot of people that are aren't interested in politics

521
00:26:41,080 --> 00:26:43,879
Speaker 5: right now. Critical thing I think is to get get

522
00:26:43,920 --> 00:26:46,040
Speaker 5: your message, to get your team and if you've got

523
00:26:46,040 --> 00:26:50,040
Speaker 5: to change more people in the White House. Do it quick. Yeah, yeah,

524
00:26:50,200 --> 00:26:51,320
Speaker 5: I mean, don't don't drag it out.

525
00:26:51,600 --> 00:26:54,119
Speaker 2: Problem with that speech, he's not a good teleprompter reader,

526
00:26:54,280 --> 00:26:57,919
Speaker 2: and you know, with no audience, it's not him. And

527
00:26:58,200 --> 00:27:00,240
Speaker 2: how does something like that happened to be with people

528
00:27:00,280 --> 00:27:01,080
Speaker 2: push him to do that?

529
00:27:02,440 --> 00:27:04,760
Speaker 5: Well, no one's had pushed this president. This president gets

530
00:27:04,760 --> 00:27:06,639
Speaker 5: to do what he wants to do. And you're deft, right.

531
00:27:07,560 --> 00:27:09,880
Speaker 5: When I worked for Ronald Reagan, you know, Ronald Reagan

532
00:27:09,960 --> 00:27:13,240
Speaker 5: got the sort of set, was a master speaker, could

533
00:27:13,240 --> 00:27:16,280
Speaker 5: read a teleprompter anywhere, but he took time to get

534
00:27:16,320 --> 00:27:18,840
Speaker 5: ready for it. The idea that you now have Pam

535
00:27:18,880 --> 00:27:22,000
Speaker 5: Bond being fired at the same time, these are all

536
00:27:22,000 --> 00:27:24,359
Speaker 5: those tractions to the president, no matter how capable he

537
00:27:24,440 --> 00:27:27,120
Speaker 5: may be or not be, No one could basically take

538
00:27:27,119 --> 00:27:29,520
Speaker 5: all those pressures all at once. So I think I

539
00:27:29,520 --> 00:27:32,080
Speaker 5: think he was badly. You know, he could fire next week,

540
00:27:32,119 --> 00:27:33,880
Speaker 5: he could fire two weeks and now no won't care.

541
00:27:34,280 --> 00:27:35,800
Speaker 5: But at the end of the day, you've now you've

542
00:27:35,800 --> 00:27:38,720
Speaker 5: now stepped all over your stories. And I worry about

543
00:27:38,720 --> 00:27:42,399
Speaker 5: the communications. I worry about the Democrats not not necessarily

544
00:27:42,440 --> 00:27:46,000
Speaker 5: getting the upper hand on communications. But they're going to

545
00:27:46,200 --> 00:27:48,879
Speaker 5: take the press that basically is not favorable to the

546
00:27:48,920 --> 00:27:53,520
Speaker 5: president right now and highlight these stories. And now now

547
00:27:53,600 --> 00:27:55,600
Speaker 5: today you have the budget which the president asked, what

548
00:27:55,640 --> 00:27:59,720
Speaker 5: an enormous amount of money for the Defense Department and

549
00:28:00,160 --> 00:28:02,560
Speaker 5: end of the day, it may be necessary, but he's

550
00:28:02,560 --> 00:28:04,480
Speaker 5: got to prove his case. She's not gonna get that

551
00:28:04,520 --> 00:28:08,320
Speaker 5: money easily. So yeah, a lot of the agenda, a

552
00:28:08,359 --> 00:28:09,320
Speaker 5: lot of agenda.

553
00:28:09,440 --> 00:28:11,480
Speaker 2: Yeah, but when you get a guy who's not a politician,

554
00:28:11,600 --> 00:28:14,399
Speaker 2: not a professional politician, he's a billionaire, he's from the

555
00:28:14,400 --> 00:28:17,080
Speaker 2: private sector. You worked for Ross Perot, They're gonna do

556
00:28:17,119 --> 00:28:19,440
Speaker 2: what they want. They're not going to ever follow the procedure,

557
00:28:19,440 --> 00:28:21,040
Speaker 2: are they Nope?

558
00:28:21,080 --> 00:28:23,399
Speaker 5: I agree totally in Ross Baro is a perfect example.

559
00:28:23,480 --> 00:28:26,760
Speaker 5: But uh, you know Trump has had success though, and

560
00:28:26,800 --> 00:28:30,080
Speaker 5: I think the key things, you know, he has to

561
00:28:30,119 --> 00:28:32,959
Speaker 5: pick us, pick us battles carefully, especially the next two

562
00:28:33,000 --> 00:28:35,840
Speaker 5: in a days. He LOSESNA, He's gotta lose the House.

563
00:28:35,920 --> 00:28:38,320
Speaker 5: It may not be a be a massive loss, but

564
00:28:38,360 --> 00:28:41,080
Speaker 5: it's gonna be a loss. Uh, the Senators now in play.

565
00:28:41,600 --> 00:28:44,080
Speaker 5: He loses those two things, those two nities, the whole

566
00:28:44,080 --> 00:28:46,600
Speaker 5: game case, the last two years, So he's got to

567
00:28:46,640 --> 00:28:49,720
Speaker 5: basically the next six months get what he needs done,

568
00:28:49,800 --> 00:28:52,520
Speaker 5: get an agenda out there, get a campaign strategy that can

569
00:28:52,880 --> 00:28:55,640
Speaker 5: can articulate what it is. Is the last two years over

570
00:28:55,680 --> 00:28:56,080
Speaker 5: about him.

571
00:28:56,160 --> 00:28:59,040
Speaker 2: Yeah, but it's many many, many many months away. And

572
00:28:59,080 --> 00:29:01,120
Speaker 2: you know he can rabbits out of his hat. He

573
00:29:01,200 --> 00:29:02,400
Speaker 2: is pretty good at that, isn't.

574
00:29:02,200 --> 00:29:05,200
Speaker 5: He's very He's very good at that. At the end

575
00:29:05,240 --> 00:29:07,719
Speaker 5: of the day, though, you want to be on your agenda,

576
00:29:07,760 --> 00:29:08,480
Speaker 5: on their agenda.

577
00:29:08,680 --> 00:29:12,880
Speaker 2: Yeah. So, and the idea of firing a cabinet member,

578
00:29:12,880 --> 00:29:14,560
Speaker 2: you're gonna hear all day and all weekend on the

579
00:29:14,600 --> 00:29:18,560
Speaker 2: Sunday shows this and indicates total chaos in the administrative

580
00:29:18,680 --> 00:29:20,800
Speaker 2: It's not unusual to fire cabinet member, is it.

581
00:29:21,960 --> 00:29:24,840
Speaker 5: No, it's not. And certainly Trump had had a big

582
00:29:24,880 --> 00:29:27,480
Speaker 5: record of hiring people first term, and you know, you

583
00:29:27,520 --> 00:29:33,760
Speaker 5: remember back to cabin rovers and fire forever. And at

584
00:29:33,800 --> 00:29:35,600
Speaker 5: the end of the day, what I would do is

585
00:29:35,680 --> 00:29:38,960
Speaker 5: just target is don't don't drag it out, don't don't

586
00:29:38,960 --> 00:29:43,400
Speaker 5: do uh one a week so you change and there

587
00:29:43,480 --> 00:29:45,880
Speaker 5: four or five people, you're not satisfied, get it done,

588
00:29:46,080 --> 00:29:48,280
Speaker 5: do it sometime next A couple of weeks and then

589
00:29:48,320 --> 00:29:52,240
Speaker 5: basically the safest deaths of all the picked senators or

590
00:29:52,360 --> 00:29:55,400
Speaker 5: people with the senator will vote for quickly, don't drive.

591
00:29:55,760 --> 00:29:59,960
Speaker 5: Just as we've made the change with Beyond, with the

592
00:30:00,040 --> 00:30:03,120
Speaker 5: Homeland of Security, I get too quick. It's done, we're

593
00:30:03,160 --> 00:30:07,200
Speaker 5: moving forward. It's no longer an issue. This one's going

594
00:30:07,280 --> 00:30:10,800
Speaker 5: to be an issue. So I would just said, holy

595
00:30:10,880 --> 00:30:14,000
Speaker 5: acting the deputy there for as long as I could.

596
00:30:14,160 --> 00:30:18,719
Speaker 5: There's no there's no time restraint and that that basically

597
00:30:18,800 --> 00:30:21,040
Speaker 5: go out and try and grab somebody right down, throw

598
00:30:21,120 --> 00:30:21,400
Speaker 5: them on that.

599
00:30:21,760 --> 00:30:24,480
Speaker 2: Yeah, we're talking with Ed Rollinson. Let's let's talk about

600
00:30:24,520 --> 00:30:26,760
Speaker 2: New York Bruce Blakeman. I think he'd be a great governor.

601
00:30:27,360 --> 00:30:29,120
Speaker 2: I think he's got a real shot at winning this

602
00:30:29,400 --> 00:30:32,760
Speaker 2: campaign finance board. It looks pretty corrupt that too many

603
00:30:32,760 --> 00:30:35,440
Speaker 2: Democrats are on the board. They've denied him funding. What

604
00:30:35,440 --> 00:30:37,200
Speaker 2: what what do you do about a thing like that?

605
00:30:38,400 --> 00:30:40,560
Speaker 5: You got to keep fighting. You got to basically get

606
00:30:40,560 --> 00:30:43,440
Speaker 5: out there and let people know. I think blake would

607
00:30:43,480 --> 00:30:45,840
Speaker 5: be a great candidate. He's been a great county administrator.

608
00:30:46,440 --> 00:30:48,160
Speaker 5: Uh And at the end of the day, the race

609
00:30:48,240 --> 00:30:50,960
Speaker 5: is closer than people anticipated it being. We could win

610
00:30:51,040 --> 00:30:52,760
Speaker 5: this one. We're going to do it right.

611
00:30:53,320 --> 00:30:57,560
Speaker 2: Yeah, but she's got like twenty million. In today's world,

612
00:30:58,200 --> 00:30:59,760
Speaker 2: like in the old days, you'd spend it all in

613
00:30:59,840 --> 00:31:02,360
Speaker 2: tea commercials. What is he to do with the money now?

614
00:31:02,400 --> 00:31:04,280
Speaker 2: TV commercials don't mean much. What do you do with

615
00:31:04,320 --> 00:31:05,000
Speaker 2: the money now?

616
00:31:06,200 --> 00:31:08,720
Speaker 5: Well, you go a grassroots organization. You know. The key

617
00:31:08,760 --> 00:31:11,280
Speaker 5: thing here is is you've got to take the three

618
00:31:11,360 --> 00:31:13,840
Speaker 5: or four states, three or four counties that matter. Sure

619
00:31:13,880 --> 00:31:20,880
Speaker 5: Westchester is County Suffolk, some upstate and registered voters. Get

620
00:31:20,920 --> 00:31:23,960
Speaker 5: sure your voters are aligned to vote if participating. But

621
00:31:24,080 --> 00:31:26,160
Speaker 5: it's great a grassroots Africa that you've got to do.

622
00:31:26,440 --> 00:31:29,120
Speaker 2: Yeah, I think what the real problem We don't really

623
00:31:29,120 --> 00:31:31,160
Speaker 2: have as much of a Republican party in New York.

624
00:31:31,200 --> 00:31:34,560
Speaker 2: I mean the actual infrastructure apparatus, it's not really there.

625
00:31:34,600 --> 00:31:35,640
Speaker 2: What do we do about that?

626
00:31:36,480 --> 00:31:38,840
Speaker 5: Well, he's got to do himself. You can't get a

627
00:31:38,880 --> 00:31:41,840
Speaker 5: party in place at this point in time. We've had

628
00:31:41,840 --> 00:31:44,120
Speaker 5: the same chairman for an over years now, and it's

629
00:31:44,200 --> 00:31:46,920
Speaker 5: just it's worth too much in a mindset of losing

630
00:31:48,280 --> 00:31:51,720
Speaker 5: and self fulfilling prophecy. My sense is we've got a

631
00:31:51,760 --> 00:31:54,800
Speaker 5: candidate who's Bible, who's particular that knows the issues well

632
00:31:55,160 --> 00:31:57,400
Speaker 5: in a very weak in comment. So this is his

633
00:31:57,480 --> 00:31:58,400
Speaker 5: opportunity for us.

634
00:31:58,560 --> 00:32:02,719
Speaker 2: Yeah, so hey, Iran, Uh, what does the president need

635
00:32:02,760 --> 00:32:04,440
Speaker 2: to do now to wrap this up? What does he

636
00:32:04,520 --> 00:32:05,800
Speaker 2: need to do? Messaging wise?

637
00:32:07,120 --> 00:32:09,840
Speaker 5: Well, message wise is very important. Uh. And as I

638
00:32:09,880 --> 00:32:12,120
Speaker 5: said this speech the other night, could have given any time.

639
00:32:12,240 --> 00:32:15,840
Speaker 5: But you know, the reality is if you're going to

640
00:32:15,880 --> 00:32:17,400
Speaker 5: get on the ground and you're going to go try

641
00:32:17,400 --> 00:32:18,840
Speaker 5: and do some of the things that they want to do,

642
00:32:19,320 --> 00:32:22,560
Speaker 5: you're going to have, unfortunately, going to have American skilled

643
00:32:22,720 --> 00:32:25,719
Speaker 5: and that changes the whole dynamics. If I was if

644
00:32:25,760 --> 00:32:27,480
Speaker 5: I was advising him at this point in time, which

645
00:32:27,480 --> 00:32:31,680
Speaker 5: obviously I'm not, I'd say get out, you've done what

646
00:32:31,720 --> 00:32:35,560
Speaker 5: you want to do. You basically said you're not. You're

647
00:32:35,560 --> 00:32:37,000
Speaker 5: not going to make that. You're not going to make

648
00:32:37,000 --> 00:32:40,160
Speaker 5: the change in the in the government. Uh. It's and

649
00:32:40,200 --> 00:32:43,560
Speaker 5: if you put troops on the ground, you know, there's

650
00:32:43,560 --> 00:32:45,200
Speaker 5: a million people in their armor, and there's two hundred

651
00:32:45,240 --> 00:32:48,680
Speaker 5: fifty thousand and there in the Republican Guard. He was,

652
00:32:49,200 --> 00:32:52,440
Speaker 5: you know, the sort of repeat of Vietnam. We bomb

653
00:32:52,520 --> 00:32:54,760
Speaker 5: the hell out of Vietnam and basically won't get on

654
00:32:54,760 --> 00:32:58,040
Speaker 5: the ground. Or them. They put a lot of dead

655
00:32:58,080 --> 00:33:00,760
Speaker 5: to the Americans. If you started as Americans, who will

656
00:33:00,720 --> 00:33:01,240
Speaker 5: lose support.

657
00:33:02,120 --> 00:33:04,520
Speaker 2: Well Ed, Rond's great talking to your great stuff as always,

658
00:33:04,560 --> 00:33:07,200
Speaker 2: and we'll do it again soon. Thanks, thanks for being

665
00:33:31,880 --> 00:33:37,160
Speaker 7: W Mark Simone's back on seventeen wo on.

666
00:33:39,280 --> 00:33:45,160
Speaker 2: Well, you know they had well this Easter Lunch at

667
00:33:45,200 --> 00:33:49,200
Speaker 2: the White House that was yesterday. It was the day before. Yeah,

668
00:33:49,240 --> 00:33:52,400
Speaker 2: it was the day before the Easter lunch where the

669
00:33:52,440 --> 00:33:56,320
Speaker 2: President speaks and they had a lot of invited guests

670
00:33:56,320 --> 00:34:00,960
Speaker 2: and dignitaries and VIPs there and the President spoke and

671
00:34:00,960 --> 00:34:04,880
Speaker 2: it was very funny. It's a private event. For some reason,

672
00:34:04,960 --> 00:34:07,880
Speaker 2: they videotaped it and then somebody at the White House

673
00:34:09,760 --> 00:34:13,560
Speaker 2: accidentally posted the video. It was never supposed to be

674
00:34:13,600 --> 00:34:18,920
Speaker 2: seen publicly, and the President got pretty Frank with everybody,

675
00:34:19,280 --> 00:34:21,040
Speaker 2: and it became like a roast. He was kind of

676
00:34:21,120 --> 00:34:23,200
Speaker 2: roasting everybody with a lot of jokes. So it was

677
00:34:23,280 --> 00:34:26,200
Speaker 2: not supposed to go up online. They posted it. It

678
00:34:26,239 --> 00:34:29,880
Speaker 2: was taken down after about twenty minutes when they realized

679
00:34:29,920 --> 00:34:32,319
Speaker 2: the mistake, but a lot of the stuff leaked out

680
00:34:32,360 --> 00:34:36,400
Speaker 2: the footage. In fact, he started talking about the French

681
00:34:36,400 --> 00:34:39,600
Speaker 2: president Macrone, talking about he couldn't be here because his

682
00:34:39,680 --> 00:34:42,200
Speaker 2: wife beat him up. It was that he's still recovering

683
00:34:42,200 --> 00:34:46,160
Speaker 2: from the right to the jaw. He then the mimicked

684
00:34:46,440 --> 00:34:50,680
Speaker 2: Macrone's French accident and started imitating him getting beaten up

685
00:34:50,680 --> 00:34:54,719
Speaker 2: by his wife. Charlie Kirk's widow, Erica Kirk, was there

686
00:34:55,520 --> 00:34:58,000
Speaker 2: and she's been the victim of all kinds of fake

687
00:34:58,080 --> 00:35:01,920
Speaker 2: news crap, and he's talking to her. He said, I

688
00:35:01,960 --> 00:35:04,600
Speaker 2: would sue their ass off. I would sue their blank off.

689
00:35:05,719 --> 00:35:08,400
Speaker 2: At one point he started talking about the Supreme Court

690
00:35:08,600 --> 00:35:12,200
Speaker 2: justices and the ones that he appointed, and he called

691
00:35:12,200 --> 00:35:15,440
Speaker 2: them stupid people. But again, it's a private lunch, nobody's

692
00:35:15,440 --> 00:35:18,520
Speaker 2: supposed to see. It's not supposed to be public. They

693
00:35:18,560 --> 00:35:21,399
Speaker 2: act somebody accidentally posted this. All this stuff leak said,

694
00:35:21,440 --> 00:35:24,319
Speaker 2: and now If this were another president, this would have

695
00:35:24,360 --> 00:35:28,279
Speaker 2: been horribly embarrassing. This would have been a problem. Oh

696
00:35:28,360 --> 00:35:30,759
Speaker 2: my god, look what he said behind the scenes. Oh

697
00:35:30,840 --> 00:35:33,040
Speaker 2: my god, look at the jokes he makes behind the scenes.

698
00:35:33,080 --> 00:35:36,120
Speaker 2: But luckily it's Trump and let's be honest. I mean,

699
00:35:36,160 --> 00:35:38,520
Speaker 2: is there anything there he wouldn't have said publicly. So

700
00:35:38,880 --> 00:35:42,520
Speaker 2: that's the great thing about being totally frank, totally blunt,

701
00:35:42,960 --> 00:35:45,640
Speaker 2: totally honest with what you think, no filter, say whatever

702
00:35:45,680 --> 00:35:47,920
Speaker 2: the hell you want all the time. There's nothing that

703
00:35:47,920 --> 00:35:50,800
Speaker 2: can come out behind the scenes. You don't have to

704
00:35:50,800 --> 00:35:54,760
Speaker 2: worry about anything being exposed. Look at Christy Nomes's husband

705
00:35:54,840 --> 00:35:58,879
Speaker 2: with his little bimbo fetish that comes out and it's

706
00:35:58,920 --> 00:36:04,919
Speaker 2: just awful scandal. Now there's word that the reason that

707
00:36:04,960 --> 00:36:10,920
Speaker 2: got exposed, Christy Nome's husband would use these sex workers

708
00:36:11,560 --> 00:36:13,759
Speaker 2: that would dress up they were bimbos. He would dress

709
00:36:13,840 --> 00:36:16,080
Speaker 2: up as a bimbo. Apparently they would do this on video.

710
00:36:16,480 --> 00:36:18,800
Speaker 2: You know, they have these what they call webcam models

711
00:36:19,440 --> 00:36:21,480
Speaker 2: where you go on a webcam and you're talking live

712
00:36:21,560 --> 00:36:24,840
Speaker 2: to the webcam model. And he was paying like twenty

713
00:36:24,840 --> 00:36:28,880
Speaker 2: five dollars a minute for them to talk dirty to him.

714
00:36:30,239 --> 00:36:32,520
Speaker 2: How much is how long do you have to talk. Well,

715
00:36:32,600 --> 00:36:34,960
Speaker 2: let's say it's ten minutes, that's two hundred and fifty bucks.

716
00:36:35,400 --> 00:36:38,120
Speaker 2: All right, let's say it's twenty minutes, it's five hundred bucks.

717
00:36:38,440 --> 00:36:43,640
Speaker 2: But apparently one of these sex workers was an illegal

718
00:36:43,800 --> 00:36:48,479
Speaker 2: migrant who did this sex work. The illegal migrant calls

719
00:36:48,520 --> 00:36:54,400
Speaker 2: herself Lydia Love. She remembers seeing Nome. She remembers the

720
00:36:54,440 --> 00:36:56,239
Speaker 2: way he was dressed, with the T shirt with the

721
00:36:56,239 --> 00:37:00,080
Speaker 2: fake boobs, the balloons underneath. But apparently it was one

722
00:36:59,920 --> 00:37:05,720
Speaker 2: of the workers was an illegal migrant, and the illegal

723
00:37:05,760 --> 00:37:09,960
Speaker 2: migrant was not happy about Christynome and not happy about

724
00:37:10,360 --> 00:37:12,480
Speaker 2: ice and all that kind of stuff. So she realized

725
00:37:12,520 --> 00:37:16,640
Speaker 2: who this guy was, and she went to somebody who

726
00:37:16,680 --> 00:37:20,640
Speaker 2: went to Axios, the political website, and leaked it to them.

727
00:37:20,960 --> 00:37:25,160
Speaker 2: And apparently that's how it came out from this illegal

728
00:37:25,200 --> 00:37:28,399
Speaker 2: migrant who happened to be a sex worker. You see,

729
00:37:28,440 --> 00:37:31,399
Speaker 2: that did do the jobs Americans won't do, like talk

730
00:37:31,440 --> 00:37:35,239
Speaker 2: to Christy Nome's husband will Anyway, We've got a lot
