Speaker 2: get to President Trump Iran, We'll get to Jerome Powell.

4
00:00:14,200 --> 00:00:16,640
Speaker 2: We'll get to Minnesota. We'll get to uh, we'll get

5
00:00:16,680 --> 00:00:20,160
Speaker 2: to Bruce Blakeman big inauguration yesterday for his second term.

6
00:00:20,160 --> 00:00:23,959
Speaker 2: We'll get to a mom Donnie Hokeel and a whole

7
00:00:23,960 --> 00:00:27,040
Speaker 2: lot more coming up. So, hey, I just declared this

8
00:00:27,240 --> 00:00:32,879
Speaker 2: Jerome Powell thing. Powell, he's the one that announced it.

9
00:00:32,880 --> 00:00:34,760
Speaker 2: He's the one that held the press conference that the

10
00:00:34,880 --> 00:00:39,280
Speaker 2: Trumpetminster is trying to indict him, and it's clearly law

11
00:00:39,320 --> 00:00:44,280
Speaker 2: fair and that sort of stuff. Well, uh, Trump adminstrass

12
00:00:44,360 --> 00:00:48,400
Speaker 2: not making clear nobody was indicting him. The Justice Department

13
00:00:48,520 --> 00:00:52,879
Speaker 2: had been asking him for information about what could possibly

14
00:00:52,920 --> 00:00:56,560
Speaker 2: be a crime or just gross negligence. You know, they

15
00:00:56,560 --> 00:01:01,320
Speaker 2: were rebuilding the FED building should cost about eight hundred thousand.

16
00:01:01,360 --> 00:01:04,120
Speaker 2: Instead they spent like three billion where they held it.

17
00:01:04,160 --> 00:01:07,600
Speaker 2: All that money go Justice Department. And he testified it

18
00:01:07,600 --> 00:01:09,560
Speaker 2: in front of Congress about it. But there were questions

19
00:01:10,880 --> 00:01:13,360
Speaker 2: brought up by his testimony. So the Justice Department sending

20
00:01:13,440 --> 00:01:17,360
Speaker 2: him letters asking him for clarification, asking him for information

21
00:01:17,800 --> 00:01:21,360
Speaker 2: and he refused to respond. He never responded to anything.

22
00:01:22,319 --> 00:01:24,560
Speaker 2: So finally they sent something that said, you know, you

23
00:01:24,600 --> 00:01:26,920
Speaker 2: have to respond to us. You can't just not answer,

24
00:01:27,480 --> 00:01:30,080
Speaker 2: otherwise we'd have to seek some legal remedy. That's all

25
00:01:30,080 --> 00:01:33,240
Speaker 2: they said. And then I guess he decided to get

26
00:01:33,240 --> 00:01:35,960
Speaker 2: ahead of it. And he's the one that held a

27
00:01:35,959 --> 00:01:38,720
Speaker 2: big press conference over the weekend announcing the Justice Department

28
00:01:38,760 --> 00:01:41,440
Speaker 2: is trying to indict him, and it's law fare, and

29
00:01:41,680 --> 00:01:44,800
Speaker 2: it's unusual for Powell to hold any kind of press

30
00:01:44,800 --> 00:01:46,399
Speaker 2: conference like that, But he got all dressed up and

31
00:01:46,400 --> 00:01:49,440
Speaker 2: put on his best classes and held this press conference.

32
00:01:49,440 --> 00:01:51,000
Speaker 2: He was trying to get ahead of the whole thing.

33
00:01:51,920 --> 00:01:54,800
Speaker 2: If you're trying to get ahead of it, that implies

34
00:01:54,840 --> 00:01:57,760
Speaker 2: you think it could be a problem. But apparently the

35
00:01:57,840 --> 00:02:01,160
Speaker 2: Justice Department making clear nobody was in nobody was doing it.

36
00:02:01,160 --> 00:02:03,840
Speaker 2: They were simply trying to get him to answer the

37
00:02:03,920 --> 00:02:08,000
Speaker 2: questions they had about the over spending on the building.

38
00:02:08,000 --> 00:02:11,119
Speaker 1: Here's Powell, the threat of criminal charges is a consequence

39
00:02:11,160 --> 00:02:14,639
Speaker 1: of the Federal Reserve setting interest rates based on our

40
00:02:14,680 --> 00:02:17,919
Speaker 1: best assessment of what will serve the public, rather than

41
00:02:17,960 --> 00:02:19,800
Speaker 1: following the preferences of the president.

42
00:02:20,040 --> 00:02:22,519
Speaker 2: Yeah, now, there's no truth to that. He's just lying,

43
00:02:22,560 --> 00:02:27,880
Speaker 2: but he's he knows the politics right now. Fake news

44
00:02:27,960 --> 00:02:31,760
Speaker 2: will go after Trump. So if you allege something against Trump,

45
00:02:31,840 --> 00:02:33,840
Speaker 2: fake news will back you up. We'll play it up.

46
00:02:34,320 --> 00:02:37,040
Speaker 2: But the fact is nobody was threatening to indict him.

47
00:02:37,120 --> 00:02:40,239
Speaker 2: Nothing like that was happening. They just simply kept asking

48
00:02:40,320 --> 00:02:43,200
Speaker 2: him for information over and over again, and he refused

49
00:02:43,200 --> 00:02:45,920
Speaker 2: to respond to the Justice Department, and finally in one

50
00:02:45,960 --> 00:02:47,840
Speaker 2: of those letters, thinking if you just keep refusing, we'll

51
00:02:47,880 --> 00:02:50,560
Speaker 2: have to take some sort of legal remedy. Nobody said

52
00:02:50,600 --> 00:02:55,560
Speaker 2: indictment or anything like that. He is The top economists

53
00:02:55,560 --> 00:02:59,240
Speaker 2: in the world agree, he's the worst FED chairman in decades,

54
00:02:59,320 --> 00:03:02,200
Speaker 2: the worst FED chairman, just horrible.

55
00:03:02,240 --> 00:03:05,519
Speaker 3: His Caroline Levitt, the President has every right to criticize

56
00:03:05,560 --> 00:03:08,080
Speaker 3: the FED chair He is a First Amendment right, just

57
00:03:08,120 --> 00:03:10,600
Speaker 3: like all of you do. And one thing for sure,

58
00:03:10,680 --> 00:03:12,960
Speaker 3: the President's made it quite clear is Jerome Powell is

59
00:03:13,000 --> 00:03:15,760
Speaker 3: that at his job. As for whether or not Jerome

60
00:03:15,760 --> 00:03:17,920
Speaker 3: Powell is a criminal, that's an answer the Department of

61
00:03:18,000 --> 00:03:19,320
Speaker 3: Justice is going to have to find out.

62
00:03:19,840 --> 00:03:21,760
Speaker 2: Yeah, Now it could be not a criminal, it could

63
00:03:21,800 --> 00:03:26,800
Speaker 2: be the ridiculous overspending doesn't mean he stole the money.

64
00:03:26,840 --> 00:03:30,880
Speaker 2: It could just mean he's the most incredibly incompetent, bumbling

65
00:03:30,880 --> 00:03:33,040
Speaker 2: idiot in the world and that's how he let the

66
00:03:33,040 --> 00:03:36,600
Speaker 2: cost get way out of control on that FED building.

67
00:03:37,120 --> 00:03:41,760
Speaker 2: But just the worst, absolute worst FED chairman. Now a

68
00:03:41,800 --> 00:03:44,160
Speaker 2: lot of people think, well, why even bother with him?

69
00:03:44,320 --> 00:03:46,240
Speaker 2: He's gone in two three months. Anyway, he has to

70
00:03:46,280 --> 00:03:48,800
Speaker 2: step down now. Part of the problem is when he

71
00:03:48,800 --> 00:03:51,000
Speaker 2: steps down his FED chairman, he can remain on the

72
00:03:51,000 --> 00:03:53,280
Speaker 2: FED board, have a vote, have a lot of influence.

73
00:03:53,560 --> 00:03:57,400
Speaker 2: That's unusual. Usually when a FED chairman leaves, he leaves

74
00:03:57,400 --> 00:03:59,760
Speaker 2: the board as well. They don't know what Powell will do,

75
00:04:00,640 --> 00:04:03,280
Speaker 2: he said, ordinary sort of a guy. But I think

76
00:04:03,280 --> 00:04:04,800
Speaker 2: they're trying to pressure him to make sure that he

77
00:04:05,160 --> 00:04:08,160
Speaker 2: not only steps down as FED chairman, but leaves the

78
00:04:08,320 --> 00:04:14,120
Speaker 2: board as well. So now, by the way, Elizabeth Warren

79
00:04:14,120 --> 00:04:19,400
Speaker 2: made a speech yesterday about the economy, a big economic speech.

80
00:04:19,440 --> 00:04:23,120
Speaker 2: I don't know who looks to Elizabeth Warren for economic speeches,

81
00:04:23,160 --> 00:04:28,559
Speaker 2: but she did it and was not bad. Wasn't bad.

82
00:04:28,720 --> 00:04:32,520
Speaker 2: In fact, after the speech, President Trump called her to

83
00:04:32,560 --> 00:04:36,359
Speaker 2: tell her that he really liked her speech. He was

84
00:04:36,480 --> 00:04:39,760
Speaker 2: very impressed with it. They had a nice conversation. Now

85
00:04:40,279 --> 00:04:42,400
Speaker 2: you know they're not going to suddenly become great friends.

86
00:04:42,600 --> 00:04:44,680
Speaker 2: And who knows why he did it. Maybe you know

87
00:04:44,920 --> 00:04:48,440
Speaker 2: he likes to call his worst enemy, or maybe he

88
00:04:48,480 --> 00:04:51,120
Speaker 2: thinks by having a nice phone conversation, whether it screws

89
00:04:51,160 --> 00:04:53,760
Speaker 2: her up even more with the Democrats. That could be

90
00:04:53,839 --> 00:04:58,040
Speaker 2: the reason too. But she got a lot. She was

91
00:04:58,040 --> 00:04:59,839
Speaker 2: supposed to get a lot of attention from this speech.

92
00:05:00,080 --> 00:05:03,400
Speaker 2: She's supposed to be on Rachel Maddow and Jen Psaki.

93
00:05:03,480 --> 00:05:06,839
Speaker 2: But she's not that important anymore in democratic world. They've

94
00:05:06,920 --> 00:05:08,960
Speaker 2: kind of lost interest in her. They think of her

95
00:05:09,080 --> 00:05:13,640
Speaker 2: as the past, not the future. So after this big speech,

96
00:05:13,680 --> 00:05:16,440
Speaker 2: in this big move yesterday, what did she get on?

97
00:05:17,640 --> 00:05:19,640
Speaker 2: Like the worst thing you can get on at MSNBC,

98
00:05:19,839 --> 00:05:23,000
Speaker 2: like Lawrence O'Donnell at ten o'clock. But here's Warren yesterday.

99
00:05:23,279 --> 00:05:27,760
Speaker 4: We are not short on good ideas and to win,

100
00:05:28,440 --> 00:05:34,520
Speaker 4: every Democrat should be proposing concrete plans for lowering costs.

101
00:05:35,720 --> 00:05:36,320
Speaker 5: Sourah, mom.

102
00:05:36,400 --> 00:05:40,880
Speaker 4: Donnie came from nowhere and took down a political dynasty.

103
00:05:41,680 --> 00:05:45,760
Speaker 4: How he ran a campaign tightly focused on the cost

104
00:05:45,800 --> 00:05:50,640
Speaker 4: of living, with easy to understand the platform, free buses,

105
00:05:50,800 --> 00:05:53,960
Speaker 4: freeze the rent, and deliver no cost childcare.

106
00:05:54,160 --> 00:05:56,960
Speaker 2: Very easy to understand. Doesn't make any sense, but it's

107
00:05:57,000 --> 00:06:01,160
Speaker 2: also impossible, but very easy to understand. What political dynasty

108
00:06:01,200 --> 00:06:04,640
Speaker 2: did he take down? Eric Adams? That was a dynasty.

109
00:06:05,600 --> 00:06:07,960
Speaker 2: The guy couldn't even run for re election. He had

110
00:06:07,960 --> 00:06:12,159
Speaker 2: to drop out. And again, had Cuomo Andrew Cuomo not

111
00:06:12,279 --> 00:06:14,040
Speaker 2: shown up, the whole thing would have been different. Remember

112
00:06:14,040 --> 00:06:18,200
Speaker 2: when Cuomo first showed up, it was to scare Eric

113
00:06:18,240 --> 00:06:22,040
Speaker 2: Adams out of the Democratic primary, and it worked. He

114
00:06:22,160 --> 00:06:24,480
Speaker 2: scared him out of the Democratic primary, convinced him that

115
00:06:24,520 --> 00:06:27,800
Speaker 2: he had so much money and so much backing Adams,

116
00:06:27,839 --> 00:06:32,320
Speaker 2: and had Adam stayed in, culomos the world's worst debater.

117
00:06:32,400 --> 00:06:35,760
Speaker 2: He got slaughtered in both debates by Mom Donny. Had

118
00:06:35,800 --> 00:06:38,400
Speaker 2: Adam stayed in. He's not the most articulate kind in

119
00:06:38,400 --> 00:06:41,039
Speaker 2: the world, but he's colorful, he's charming. He probably would

120
00:06:41,080 --> 00:06:43,880
Speaker 2: have done better against Mom Donnie and probably would have

121
00:06:43,880 --> 00:06:48,880
Speaker 2: had the Democratic nomination. But Cuomo loses the Democratic nomination,

122
00:06:49,120 --> 00:06:53,520
Speaker 2: He loses, Democrats reject him. He then stays in the

123
00:06:53,640 --> 00:06:57,719
Speaker 2: race as a third party candidate, and it was the

124
00:06:57,760 --> 00:07:01,560
Speaker 2: weirdest situation I've ever seen. Kurtis is a major party candidate.

125
00:07:01,600 --> 00:07:04,920
Speaker 2: Curtis is the Republican candidate, and people are telling them,

126
00:07:04,960 --> 00:07:06,880
Speaker 2: you have to drop out, you have to drop Why

127
00:07:06,920 --> 00:07:09,800
Speaker 2: would the major party candidate have to drop out for

128
00:07:09,880 --> 00:07:12,600
Speaker 2: a guy on some third party? Nobody knows. It didn't

129
00:07:12,640 --> 00:07:16,960
Speaker 2: make any sense. Hey, Minnesota is going to sue I

130
00:07:16,960 --> 00:07:22,640
Speaker 2: guess the Trump administration for what. I don't know. Let's see,

131
00:07:22,640 --> 00:07:27,560
Speaker 2: this is crazy Mayor Fry. He's their mom, Donnie here.

132
00:07:27,760 --> 00:07:31,000
Speaker 6: Donald Trump should know as long as federal agents are

133
00:07:31,040 --> 00:07:35,320
Speaker 6: in our city acting unconstitutionally against our neighbors, we will

134
00:07:35,360 --> 00:07:38,239
Speaker 6: continue to push back with everything we've got.

135
00:07:39,040 --> 00:07:43,200
Speaker 2: Now, what is he talking about? What's unconstitutional? Law enforcement?

136
00:07:43,320 --> 00:07:46,000
Speaker 2: Enforcing actual laws that are on the books. I don't

137
00:07:46,000 --> 00:07:50,080
Speaker 2: think that's unconstitutional. You're allowed to actually enforce the law. Hey.

138
00:07:50,080 --> 00:07:53,280
Speaker 2: By the way, federal law supersedes local law. You can

139
00:07:53,320 --> 00:07:56,280
Speaker 2: make all your sanctuary city crazy laws, but federal law

140
00:07:56,320 --> 00:08:03,240
Speaker 2: Trump's local law. And every legal scholar, the Alan Dershowitz's

141
00:08:03,480 --> 00:08:07,640
Speaker 2: our best legal scholars state this lawsuit has absolutely no

142
00:08:07,920 --> 00:08:13,120
Speaker 2: chance of going anywhere. Here's that crazy Attorney General Keith Ellison,

143
00:08:13,360 --> 00:08:17,400
Speaker 2: who should resign immediately. Eighteen billion was stolen in the

144
00:08:17,440 --> 00:08:21,080
Speaker 2: Somali fraud scheme eighteen billion. You know how much that

145
00:08:21,160 --> 00:08:24,560
Speaker 2: is for one state? Eighteen billion goes missing, and this

146
00:08:24,600 --> 00:08:27,440
Speaker 2: guy didn't even notice. Didn't even notice. I mean, you

147
00:08:27,480 --> 00:08:29,760
Speaker 2: should be embarrassed. As in the Attorney general step down.

148
00:08:29,920 --> 00:08:33,440
Speaker 7: The deployment of thousands of armed mass DHS agents to

149
00:08:33,520 --> 00:08:39,160
Speaker 7: Minnesota has done our state serious harm. This is, in essence,

150
00:08:39,280 --> 00:08:42,440
Speaker 7: a federal invasion of the Twin Cities and Minnesota, and

151
00:08:42,520 --> 00:08:43,200
Speaker 7: it must stop.

152
00:08:44,800 --> 00:08:47,920
Speaker 2: Okay, well, that's what democrats, that's what they do. Hysteria,

153
00:08:48,080 --> 00:08:49,360
Speaker 2: hyperbolic nonsense.

154
00:08:49,480 --> 00:08:54,479
Speaker 7: We allege that the obvious targeting of Minnesota, for our diversity,

155
00:08:54,559 --> 00:08:59,120
Speaker 7: for our democracy, and our differences of opinion with the

156
00:08:59,120 --> 00:09:03,240
Speaker 7: federal government is a violation of the Constitution and of

157
00:09:03,400 --> 00:09:04,120
Speaker 7: federal law.

158
00:09:04,440 --> 00:09:07,040
Speaker 2: It sounds great, you just yell all these things, but

159
00:09:07,160 --> 00:09:09,200
Speaker 2: I mean, it doesn't make any sense. It has no

160
00:09:09,320 --> 00:09:12,800
Speaker 2: chance in a courtroom. Federal law says you arrest the illegals,

161
00:09:12,840 --> 00:09:14,240
Speaker 2: and you pick them up, and you take them out

162
00:09:14,280 --> 00:09:15,480
Speaker 2: and get rid of them and take them out of

163
00:09:15,559 --> 00:09:19,800
Speaker 2: the country. So it's this is ellison. I guess it's

164
00:09:19,800 --> 00:09:22,840
Speaker 2: the guy behind the lawsuit. And again it has absolutely

165
00:09:22,880 --> 00:09:27,559
Speaker 2: no chance of doing anything in a courtroom. But these

166
00:09:27,640 --> 00:09:30,400
Speaker 2: lunatics think it's good for them politically, so they'll keep

167
00:09:30,440 --> 00:09:36,840
Speaker 2: pursuing it. This the woman Renee Good who was shot.

168
00:09:37,120 --> 00:09:41,800
Speaker 2: Renee Good. Apparently at the Golden Globe Awards, all the

169
00:09:41,840 --> 00:09:46,480
Speaker 2: celebrities were wearing Renee Good pins on their lapel. You know,

170
00:09:46,559 --> 00:09:48,360
Speaker 2: it's a big thing with these celebrities. At an award

171
00:09:48,400 --> 00:09:50,559
Speaker 2: shore you always have to have a pin. You remember,

172
00:09:50,559 --> 00:09:52,640
Speaker 2: it was the AIDS pin, it was the breast cancer pin,

173
00:09:52,720 --> 00:09:55,440
Speaker 2: it was this pin, which is fine, but the Renee

174
00:09:55,520 --> 00:10:01,480
Speaker 2: Good pin. I mean, basically a crazy lunatic. And again,

175
00:10:02,320 --> 00:10:05,880
Speaker 2: who do you know that would I mean, if a

176
00:10:05,960 --> 00:10:10,000
Speaker 2: cop pulled you over, wouldn't you just be nice, polite, cooperate.

177
00:10:10,080 --> 00:10:12,840
Speaker 2: I mean, maybe I might know somebody who'd give the

178
00:10:12,880 --> 00:10:15,520
Speaker 2: cop a hard time, who'd argue with the cop or

179
00:10:15,600 --> 00:10:17,520
Speaker 2: yell at it. I might know somebody will do that.

180
00:10:17,840 --> 00:10:19,880
Speaker 2: But who do you know, like Renee Good? Who do

181
00:10:19,960 --> 00:10:22,720
Speaker 2: you know that if there was a caravan of law

182
00:10:22,760 --> 00:10:25,720
Speaker 2: enforcement moving up the street, would drive in front of them,

183
00:10:25,840 --> 00:10:29,040
Speaker 2: turn a car sideways, box them in, block them in.

184
00:10:30,200 --> 00:10:32,480
Speaker 2: I mean, when cops see that happen, the car pulls

185
00:10:32,520 --> 00:10:36,000
Speaker 2: up in front, turned sideways, boxes them in. That's usually

186
00:10:36,160 --> 00:10:39,000
Speaker 2: a sign of an ambush coming. That's like drug car

187
00:10:39,080 --> 00:10:41,920
Speaker 2: tells do that to wipe out a witness being transported.

188
00:10:42,600 --> 00:10:44,960
Speaker 2: But who do you know that would have the nerve

189
00:10:45,000 --> 00:10:48,400
Speaker 2: to do that. You got to be absolutely nuts to

190
00:10:48,440 --> 00:10:52,199
Speaker 2: do something like that. Though, Hey, yesterday was the second

191
00:10:52,240 --> 00:10:56,920
Speaker 2: inauguration of Bruce Blakeman. He's the Nassau County executive. Nassau

192
00:10:56,960 --> 00:11:00,439
Speaker 2: County for the last four years under Bruce Blakeman came

193
00:11:01,120 --> 00:11:05,600
Speaker 2: the safest crime statistic wise, safest county in America, most

194
00:11:05,600 --> 00:11:10,400
Speaker 2: successful economically, every other measure county in America. He's going

195
00:11:10,440 --> 00:11:12,160
Speaker 2: to run for governor later this year. He's got a

196
00:11:12,160 --> 00:11:14,160
Speaker 2: good chance, I think. I mean I would vote from

197
00:11:14,200 --> 00:11:19,040
Speaker 2: brit for governor. Being a county executive basically that's being

198
00:11:19,040 --> 00:11:21,719
Speaker 2: a governor. You're the governor of Nassau County. And it's

199
00:11:21,760 --> 00:11:24,680
Speaker 2: not a little county. Nassau County is a major county,

200
00:11:24,720 --> 00:11:28,280
Speaker 2: three million people there. It's bigger than some states, one

201
00:11:28,280 --> 00:11:31,560
Speaker 2: of the biggest, biggest counties in New York and the

202
00:11:31,600 --> 00:11:35,000
Speaker 2: makeup of it demographically and all of that down party

203
00:11:35,040 --> 00:11:38,040
Speaker 2: lines resembles New York States. So the fact that he

204
00:11:38,160 --> 00:11:41,200
Speaker 2: won big there twice means he's got a real good

205
00:11:41,200 --> 00:11:46,080
Speaker 2: shot in New York. The inauguration yesterday phenomenal. He got

206
00:11:47,200 --> 00:11:50,559
Speaker 2: I would say, ten standing ovations. He brought in Donald

207
00:11:50,559 --> 00:11:56,479
Speaker 2: Trump's favorite singers, two great, great singers, Mary Milburn and

208
00:11:56,600 --> 00:11:58,839
Speaker 2: Christopher Macio. Those are the two you always sing, the

209
00:11:59,120 --> 00:12:03,120
Speaker 2: very beautiful voices. Singing at mari A Lago, A big,

210
00:12:03,160 --> 00:12:07,599
Speaker 2: big ceremony yesterday, a dinner afterwards. Mia Posto, great restaurant,

211
00:12:08,440 --> 00:12:12,200
Speaker 2: owned by some nice people. A lot of famous faces there,

212
00:12:12,679 --> 00:12:16,160
Speaker 2: major political figures, people in the business community. Our friend

213
00:12:16,240 --> 00:12:21,320
Speaker 2: Sid Rosenberg was there. I was there. I came in

214
00:12:22,120 --> 00:12:23,920
Speaker 2: four years ago. Actually I was the MC of the thing,

215
00:12:23,960 --> 00:12:26,040
Speaker 2: but this year they didn't have an MC like that,

216
00:12:26,160 --> 00:12:28,160
Speaker 2: so I came in. I didn't know where to sit,

217
00:12:28,200 --> 00:12:29,679
Speaker 2: so I said to the woman, is there in an

218
00:12:29,679 --> 00:12:33,360
Speaker 2: assigned seat? She goes, let me look at the list. Oh,

219
00:12:33,480 --> 00:12:34,520
Speaker 2: you're on the dais.

220
00:12:34,760 --> 00:12:35,080
Speaker 8: Wow.

221
00:12:35,360 --> 00:12:37,760
Speaker 2: I felt really honored. I mean, I'm the dais next

222
00:12:37,760 --> 00:12:41,000
Speaker 2: to Bruce Blakeman. But then I thought, uh, oh, I

223
00:12:41,040 --> 00:12:43,520
Speaker 2: mean it's an honor, but the whole audience is looking

224
00:12:43,559 --> 00:12:44,960
Speaker 2: at you. You can't look at your phone. You got to

225
00:12:44,960 --> 00:12:48,880
Speaker 2: pay attention to all the speeches. You can't do anything

226
00:12:48,880 --> 00:12:50,200
Speaker 2: you have to, but it would turn out to be

227
00:12:50,200 --> 00:12:55,679
Speaker 2: a great, great ceremony, and people love Bruce Blakeman definitely. Actually,

228
00:12:55,679 --> 00:12:57,360
Speaker 2: if you want to help him, go to Bruce Blakeman

229
00:12:57,400 --> 00:13:00,480
Speaker 2: for New York dot Com. You want to volunteer, donate

230
00:13:00,520 --> 00:13:03,400
Speaker 2: Bruce Blakeman from New York dot Com. He's gonna run

231
00:13:03,440 --> 00:13:08,719
Speaker 2: against Kathy Hokel and he's much more qualified than Kathy Hokele. Now,

232
00:13:08,800 --> 00:13:12,760
Speaker 2: Kathy Hokel is about to make her State of the

233
00:13:12,880 --> 00:13:17,560
Speaker 2: State speech, and it's interesting. Blakeman is a like kind

234
00:13:17,600 --> 00:13:19,440
Speaker 2: of a middle of the road common sense I mean,

235
00:13:19,440 --> 00:13:24,800
Speaker 2: he's a Republican, but a real common sense Republican, approaches

236
00:13:24,840 --> 00:13:29,319
Speaker 2: everything like a businessman. Hokeel tends to. She's like Cuomo.

237
00:13:29,600 --> 00:13:32,360
Speaker 2: She'll go to the left, and if she needs to,

238
00:13:32,480 --> 00:13:36,480
Speaker 2: she'll go to the very far left. Remember people thought

239
00:13:36,520 --> 00:13:38,600
Speaker 2: Cuomo was some sort of moderate. He went so far

240
00:13:38,640 --> 00:13:41,160
Speaker 2: to the left with his no bail, no jail, closed

241
00:13:41,200 --> 00:13:44,360
Speaker 2: the prisons, let everybody out, all his craziness. Don't be

242
00:13:44,400 --> 00:13:47,760
Speaker 2: surprised if she does the same thing she thinks right now.

243
00:13:47,800 --> 00:13:50,280
Speaker 2: Her thinking is she's gonna have to have Mom Donnie

244
00:13:50,320 --> 00:13:53,840
Speaker 2: support and all the Mom Donnie people behind her. Half

245
00:13:53,920 --> 00:13:56,200
Speaker 2: the votes from New York State are in the City

246
00:13:56,240 --> 00:13:58,600
Speaker 2: of New York, so she's gonna need mom Donnie. So

247
00:13:58,760 --> 00:14:00,600
Speaker 2: a lot of people think she'll go no in the

248
00:14:00,679 --> 00:14:04,320
Speaker 2: State of the States speech way far to the left,

249
00:14:04,360 --> 00:14:06,400
Speaker 2: and that she's probably going to announce all sorts of

250
00:14:06,440 --> 00:14:10,319
Speaker 2: anti ice sort of stuff and just sound like a

251
00:14:10,400 --> 00:14:14,280
Speaker 2: left wing kook. So expect that. Hey, speaking of which

252
00:14:14,320 --> 00:14:17,360
Speaker 2: Democrats are going to start, you'll see this develop. They're

253
00:14:17,360 --> 00:14:21,560
Speaker 2: going to start their defund ice movement in Congress, trying

254
00:14:21,600 --> 00:14:27,240
Speaker 2: to officially defund ice. It's not what American citizens want.

255
00:14:27,280 --> 00:14:30,080
Speaker 2: They like ice, they like law enforcement, they don't want

256
00:14:30,120 --> 00:14:34,160
Speaker 2: to defund it. But you know, Democrats, it started years

257
00:14:34,160 --> 00:14:37,880
Speaker 2: ago with defund the police. It's evolved into in recent times,

258
00:14:38,000 --> 00:14:40,800
Speaker 2: run them over with your car. If they go back

259
00:14:40,800 --> 00:14:46,200
Speaker 2: to just defund all right, that's not so bad. Now.

260
00:14:46,480 --> 00:14:49,240
Speaker 2: The President in Detroit, Michigan today, he's going to make

261
00:14:49,240 --> 00:14:53,680
Speaker 2: a big economic speech. There's a big Economic Club of

262
00:14:53,720 --> 00:14:55,800
Speaker 2: New York. That speech is a very important one. Every year,

263
00:14:56,160 --> 00:14:59,000
Speaker 2: believe it or not, there's an Economic Club of Detroit

264
00:14:59,600 --> 00:15:02,480
Speaker 2: and Represident goes there to speak. It's considered a very

265
00:15:02,600 --> 00:15:07,120
Speaker 2: very important event. And President heading there as we speak,

266
00:15:07,160 --> 00:15:10,560
Speaker 2: he'll make a big speech there. He'll tour the Ford Plant.

267
00:15:11,280 --> 00:15:14,080
Speaker 2: So we'll see, we'll talk about we'll get to Iran

268
00:15:14,200 --> 00:15:16,280
Speaker 2: coming up, we'll get to.

269
00:15:17,760 --> 00:15:17,960
Speaker 9: Oh.

270
00:15:18,080 --> 00:15:21,160
Speaker 2: One more thing. If you have a Metro card, you know,

271
00:15:21,160 --> 00:15:24,440
Speaker 2: they don't use him anymore. Metro card. You know it

272
00:15:24,560 --> 00:15:26,600
Speaker 2: used to be tokens, then switched to the Metro card.

273
00:15:27,120 --> 00:15:29,000
Speaker 2: Now you can just use your phone. Just hold your

274
00:15:29,040 --> 00:15:34,800
Speaker 2: phone up to the turnstile and you're in. If you

275
00:15:34,880 --> 00:15:38,520
Speaker 2: have a Metro card, do not throw it away. I

276
00:15:38,520 --> 00:15:42,080
Speaker 2: don't know why, but Metro cards are becoming very valuable

277
00:15:42,120 --> 00:15:45,440
Speaker 2: as collector's items on the reseller market. Some are going

278
00:15:45,480 --> 00:15:48,960
Speaker 2: for up to thirty five hundred dollars. I guess it's

279
00:15:48,960 --> 00:15:53,200
Speaker 2: just a piece of history. But there's a whole bunch

280
00:15:53,240 --> 00:15:56,360
Speaker 2: of them on I guess eBay and all sorts of places.

281
00:15:57,280 --> 00:16:02,080
Speaker 2: A twenty twenty five card going for thirty five hundred.

282
00:16:02,120 --> 00:16:05,120
Speaker 2: Even just the worst listings they're going for one hundred dollars.

283
00:16:05,720 --> 00:16:08,800
Speaker 2: Do not throw away your Metro card. Keep it. Go

284
00:16:08,840 --> 00:16:11,240
Speaker 2: online and see what you can sell it for. Hey,

285
00:16:11,280 --> 00:16:16,640
Speaker 2: if you have an original iPod or the first iPhone

286
00:16:16,680 --> 00:16:19,000
Speaker 2: from the first year, I think I still have one somewhere.

287
00:16:19,800 --> 00:16:22,040
Speaker 2: I've looked online on the ebaying places. Some of those

288
00:16:22,080 --> 00:16:26,280
Speaker 2: original iPhones are selling for like twenty thousand, eighty thousand,

289
00:16:27,280 --> 00:16:28,920
Speaker 2: the original iPod. I think it is going for like

290
00:16:28,920 --> 00:16:31,880
Speaker 2: a million dollars. Anyway, we'll take some calls next. Eight

Speaker 2: number eight hundred three to two one zero seven ten.

00:17:00,320 --> 00:17:03,520

Speaker 8: Look up?

302
00:17:05,880 --> 00:17:07,120
Speaker 2: Huh I feel fine?

303
00:17:07,480 --> 00:17:10,800
Speaker 8: Oh okay, okay, Well I hope your allergies go away.

304
00:17:10,840 --> 00:17:13,879
Speaker 8: Then listen, I have a question that has absolutely nothing

305
00:17:13,880 --> 00:17:16,439
Speaker 8: to do with you, and maybe you like to remain

306
00:17:16,760 --> 00:17:19,960
Speaker 8: a mystery because it's intriguing. But when you go on vacation,

307
00:17:20,280 --> 00:17:22,400
Speaker 8: what kind of places do you go to? Not where

308
00:17:22,400 --> 00:17:24,040
Speaker 8: you're going to go next, but like, what do you

309
00:17:24,160 --> 00:17:27,159
Speaker 8: do for enjoyment when you're not when you're on vacation

310
00:17:27,280 --> 00:17:28,199
Speaker 8: for two weeks.

311
00:17:28,920 --> 00:17:32,760
Speaker 2: Actually, I don't enjoy it that much. I used to

312
00:17:32,800 --> 00:17:34,160
Speaker 2: like to go to Florida, but you can't go there

313
00:17:34,200 --> 00:17:36,800
Speaker 2: now because it's all people from New York. It's the

314
00:17:36,920 --> 00:17:38,960
Speaker 2: same people you see in New York, only now they're

315
00:17:38,960 --> 00:17:41,040
Speaker 2: in shorts. It's just it doesn't work out.

316
00:17:41,680 --> 00:17:44,160
Speaker 8: So basically, you like the warm weather in the winter.

317
00:17:44,200 --> 00:17:46,400
Speaker 8: You know, you don't go skiing. You know, you never

318
00:17:46,440 --> 00:17:48,440
Speaker 8: say anything about what you do, except you talk about

319
00:17:48,480 --> 00:17:51,240
Speaker 8: restaurants that you go to, which is fine because I'm listening,

320
00:17:51,920 --> 00:17:53,879
Speaker 8: But you know, I was just wondering. Anyway, I think

321
00:17:53,920 --> 00:17:56,160
Speaker 8: you have the best show on the radio. There's no butt,

322
00:17:56,160 --> 00:17:56,919
Speaker 8: there's no nothing.

323
00:17:57,160 --> 00:17:59,960
Speaker 2: All right, thanks, anybody goes skiing has got to be

324
00:18:00,400 --> 00:18:03,879
Speaker 2: Can you imagine a ski trip? Can you imagine paying

325
00:18:03,960 --> 00:18:06,080
Speaker 2: to go somewhere where it's colder than where you are?

326
00:18:06,480 --> 00:18:08,640
Speaker 2: You imagine paying to go somewhere where there's a foot

327
00:18:08,640 --> 00:18:10,960
Speaker 2: of snow? I mean, who would? But there are people

328
00:18:10,960 --> 00:18:13,919
Speaker 2: that love it. Let's go to Kathy in North Carolina. Kathy,

329
00:18:13,920 --> 00:18:14,480
Speaker 2: how you doing?

330
00:18:15,680 --> 00:18:15,800
Speaker 8: Hi?

331
00:18:15,920 --> 00:18:21,440
Speaker 5: Happy New Year? All to talk. Reporting from the DOJ

332
00:18:21,960 --> 00:18:24,639
Speaker 5: of the US Attorney's Office of the Southern District of

333
00:18:24,680 --> 00:18:27,000
Speaker 5: New York that I've been hearing all these years. Imagine

334
00:18:27,000 --> 00:18:29,879
Speaker 5: my amazement when I got a correspondence from them and

335
00:18:29,920 --> 00:18:32,480
Speaker 5: it was real. It's not a scam, but I wanted

336
00:18:32,480 --> 00:18:34,800
Speaker 5: to know if you knew about this story. Apparently I'm

337
00:18:34,800 --> 00:18:38,200
Speaker 5: a victim. This is a big New York City story

338
00:18:38,320 --> 00:18:42,919
Speaker 5: about Modest Needs charity that I belonged to, and it

339
00:18:43,040 --> 00:18:47,520
Speaker 5: was a strictly New York City based charity and the

340
00:18:47,560 --> 00:18:51,439
Speaker 5: founder of it, doctor Keith Taylor, apparently took all of

341
00:18:51,480 --> 00:18:55,000
Speaker 5: our money and misused it and stole it over all

342
00:18:55,040 --> 00:18:57,159
Speaker 5: these years of giving it. Have you ever heard of

343
00:18:57,160 --> 00:18:59,080
Speaker 5: the Modest Needs?

344
00:18:59,119 --> 00:19:01,960
Speaker 2: You got a letter and this was alleged by the

345
00:19:02,080 --> 00:19:02,720
Speaker 2: US attorney.

346
00:19:03,720 --> 00:19:06,760
Speaker 5: Oh, they were it's a criminal case. They found him guilty.

347
00:19:06,840 --> 00:19:08,960
Speaker 5: Apparently they are looking for I guess I don't know

348
00:19:09,000 --> 00:19:12,280
Speaker 5: if they're looking for impact statements. But I'm a victim,

349
00:19:12,359 --> 00:19:14,280
Speaker 5: so they have to notify me that he was I

350
00:19:14,280 --> 00:19:16,879
Speaker 5: guess cutting a deal or whatever. But it's huge, like

351
00:19:17,800 --> 00:19:18,400
Speaker 5: it might be.

352
00:19:18,520 --> 00:19:20,720
Speaker 2: Very careful when you give money to a charity. A

353
00:19:20,800 --> 00:19:22,120
Speaker 2: lot of them are not legitimate.

354
00:19:22,320 --> 00:19:24,760
Speaker 5: I know that it was such a good charity I thought, and.

355
00:19:24,720 --> 00:19:27,000
Speaker 2: It was only you got to really check them out.

356
00:19:27,040 --> 00:19:28,280
Speaker 2: You got to go to it. There's all kinds of

357
00:19:28,280 --> 00:19:29,760
Speaker 2: places you can check out a charity.

358
00:19:30,119 --> 00:19:32,359
Speaker 5: Have you never really heard of Modest Needs? It was

359
00:19:32,400 --> 00:19:36,480
Speaker 5: based only in New York City. Gosh, but you know everything. Mark.

360
00:19:37,760 --> 00:19:41,280
Speaker 2: Don't get money to charity unless you really thoroughly check

361
00:19:41,359 --> 00:19:43,880
Speaker 2: it out. I'm on the board of the Police Athletic League,

362
00:19:43,880 --> 00:19:45,919
Speaker 2: the New York City one, not the other ones. New

363
00:19:46,000 --> 00:19:48,360
Speaker 2: York City one. One of the finest charities. You can

364
00:19:48,400 --> 00:19:50,840
Speaker 2: be sure all the money goes the right place. Salvation

365
00:19:51,080 --> 00:19:54,720
Speaker 2: Army is one of the great charities. Very good. There's

366
00:19:54,720 --> 00:19:56,840
Speaker 2: a lot of good ones. Don't give to those bad ones.

367
00:19:57,359 --> 00:19:59,920
Speaker 2: Let's go to Paul in Beth Page. Paul, how you do?

368
00:20:02,240 --> 00:20:05,480
Speaker 8: Good morning, Mark. I was listening to the radio. Guys

369
00:20:05,480 --> 00:20:08,440
Speaker 8: had a little skin about some council person or someone

370
00:20:08,480 --> 00:20:11,440
Speaker 8: who works with the New York City Council got arrested

371
00:20:11,440 --> 00:20:13,280
Speaker 8: out in Long Island by ice.

372
00:20:13,840 --> 00:20:15,159
Speaker 4: Do you know anything wrong about that?

373
00:20:17,359 --> 00:20:19,679
Speaker 2: Well, I know there was somebody arrested by ice in

374
00:20:19,800 --> 00:20:24,360
Speaker 2: Long Island and they're saying that the Democrats are saying

375
00:20:24,359 --> 00:20:27,240
Speaker 2: this person has absolutely no criminal anything. There's no reason

376
00:20:27,240 --> 00:20:29,200
Speaker 2: for him to be maybe here illegal, but no reason

377
00:20:29,280 --> 00:20:31,600
Speaker 2: to arrest him, and then Tom Holman is saying they

378
00:20:31,640 --> 00:20:35,280
Speaker 2: did have a former arrest, a prior arrest for the guy.

379
00:20:35,359 --> 00:20:37,720
Speaker 2: But we'll wait and see. I usually find if you

380
00:20:37,760 --> 00:20:41,919
Speaker 2: trust Tom Holman, you'll come out. Okay, let's go to

381

386
00:20:51,240 --> 00:20:53,359
Speaker 9: He's just not yeah feeling So this is sort of silly.

387
00:20:53,400 --> 00:20:56,040
Speaker 9: But why don't they just hold a plebiscite in Minnesota

388
00:20:56,119 --> 00:20:59,440
Speaker 9: and let tampalm Tim decide whether they wanted hitting federal

00:20:59,520 --> 00:20:59,719
Speaker 9: or not.

390
00:20:59,840 --> 00:21:02,119
Speaker 2: Just clo, what do you want to hold in Minnesota?

391
00:21:02,560 --> 00:21:03,840
Speaker 9: A pleber site of vote?

392
00:21:04,480 --> 00:21:07,760
Speaker 2: Oh, you can't just save vote, he said, plebish site.

393
00:21:07,760 --> 00:21:09,639
Speaker 2: Now I got to go get a dictionary. We all

00:21:09,640 --> 00:21:11,240
Speaker 2: got to look this up to see what the hell up?

395
00:21:11,640 --> 00:21:13,960

396
00:21:14,000 --> 00:21:14,719
Speaker 2: say a vote.

397
00:21:15,280 --> 00:21:16,600
Speaker 9: Well, I'm trying to be cool.

398
00:21:17,080 --> 00:21:19,479
Speaker 2: I don't think it's the let's just say vote, although

399
00:21:19,600 --> 00:21:21,600
Speaker 2: I could so you could do that. I could try

400
00:21:21,640 --> 00:21:24,240
Speaker 2: that out on people. I just say I'm looking to

401
00:21:24,240 --> 00:21:26,280

00:21:41,680 --> 00:21:44,400
Speaker 10: that the cost of living so high in New York

407
00:21:44,840 --> 00:21:46,720

409

00:21:51,600 --> 00:21:53,240
Speaker 10: Saving two three thousand dollars a month.

412
00:21:53,680 --> 00:21:54,560
Speaker 8: Problem solved.

413
00:21:54,960 --> 00:21:57,960
Speaker 2: Well, actually, uh, President Trump is bringing the cost of

00:21:58,000 --> 00:22:01,920

423
00:22:22,600 --> 00:22:23,480

440
00:23:13,200 --> 00:23:17,720
Speaker 8: You know I'm hanging top very busy because every day

441
00:23:17,840 --> 00:23:21,080
Speaker 8: is another major story, right.

442
00:23:21,840 --> 00:23:25,520
Speaker 2: Well, yeah, it's just getting you know, I understood the

443
00:23:25,520 --> 00:23:27,880
Speaker 2: Democrats getting so crazy they want to defund the police,

444
00:23:28,160 --> 00:23:29,800
Speaker 2: the idea that now they want to just run them

445
00:23:29,840 --> 00:23:31,639
Speaker 2: over with their car, and where is this all going

446
00:23:31,680 --> 00:23:32,400
Speaker 2: to end?

447
00:23:33,480 --> 00:23:33,680
Speaker 9: Well?

448
00:23:33,680 --> 00:23:36,560
Speaker 8: I wrote a column on Bill O'Reilly dot com called Rebellion,

449
00:23:37,840 --> 00:23:44,440
Speaker 8: and it's way beyond descent or protests. Now, so you

450
00:23:44,560 --> 00:23:47,800
Speaker 8: got ten states in the Union that basically are saying

451
00:23:47,800 --> 00:23:50,399
Speaker 8: we're not going to obey federal law, not going to

452
00:23:50,480 --> 00:23:54,840
Speaker 8: do it. And now it's up to the Trump administration

453
00:23:55,880 --> 00:24:01,359
Speaker 8: to confront those states. So the last time has happened

454
00:24:01,480 --> 00:24:04,160
Speaker 8: in this kind of a vivid way, it was eighteen

455
00:24:04,320 --> 00:24:07,520
Speaker 8: thirty three. Simon, you were just a baby, all right.

456
00:24:08,080 --> 00:24:13,560
Speaker 8: Eighteen thirty three, South Carolina said to President Andrew Jackson,

457
00:24:14,800 --> 00:24:18,320
Speaker 8: we're not going to obey the tariffs that you've imposed

458
00:24:18,359 --> 00:24:23,240
Speaker 8: on Great Britain. So when they ships sail into Charleston,

459
00:24:24,000 --> 00:24:27,040
Speaker 8: we're not charging them any money to unload their gear

460
00:24:27,200 --> 00:24:30,600
Speaker 8: because that raised this price for people in South Carolina.

461
00:24:31,040 --> 00:24:36,040
Speaker 8: So blank you, Andrew Jackson, Okay, this is exactly the

462
00:24:36,080 --> 00:24:40,159
Speaker 8: same thing. It's happening right now. And then Jackson started

463
00:24:40,240 --> 00:24:45,000
Speaker 8: around and said, Okay, if you don't obey it, we're

464
00:24:45,040 --> 00:24:47,399
Speaker 8: gonna have federal governman's gonna march in and take this

465
00:24:47,600 --> 00:24:52,640
Speaker 8: state over. There's not gonna be anymore South Carolina. It's

466
00:24:52,680 --> 00:24:56,680
Speaker 8: gonna be Washington, d C. South. So they quickly came

467
00:24:56,720 --> 00:25:03,320
Speaker 8: to an arrangement. Now, maybe one out of ten million

468
00:25:03,359 --> 00:25:10,160
Speaker 8: Americans know that. But this has happened before, and right

469
00:25:10,200 --> 00:25:13,840
Speaker 8: now President Trump has a decision to make it looks

470
00:25:13,960 --> 00:25:19,879
Speaker 8: like he's just going to ignore people in Minnesota, Oregon, California.

471
00:25:19,960 --> 00:25:22,119
Speaker 8: He's going to ignore them and do exactly what he

472
00:25:22,160 --> 00:25:22,840
Speaker 8: wants to do.

473
00:25:24,440 --> 00:25:28,920
Speaker 2: Yeah, but this, you know, we had a generation that

474
00:25:29,000 --> 00:25:33,200
Speaker 2: came out of colleges and schools, all indoctrinated, crazy left wing.

475
00:25:33,560 --> 00:25:35,960
Speaker 2: But now looks we've got the most spoiled people in

476
00:25:36,000 --> 00:25:39,080
Speaker 2: the world that think they can do anything to law enforce.

477
00:25:39,200 --> 00:25:43,720
Speaker 8: That is absolutely a correct statement. Simon just made. These

478
00:25:43,760 --> 00:25:47,400
Speaker 8: people on both the far left and the far right.

479
00:25:47,760 --> 00:25:51,520
Speaker 8: The difference is the far right doesn't have any organizational power.

480
00:25:53,080 --> 00:25:55,480
Speaker 8: So you've got krups, you know, running around with the

481
00:25:55,560 --> 00:25:58,760
Speaker 8: Nazi armbands in the middle of Idaho wherever they are,

482
00:25:59,359 --> 00:26:04,040
Speaker 8: but they don't have any way to affect our society.

483
00:26:04,640 --> 00:26:08,040
Speaker 8: The far left es is very well organized and funded,

484
00:26:09,040 --> 00:26:13,199
Speaker 8: and these groups that you see protesting almost every single

485
00:26:13,280 --> 00:26:18,160
Speaker 8: time I've been organized through social media. People are told

486
00:26:18,240 --> 00:26:21,800
Speaker 8: to go to a certain place, the handed signs that

487
00:26:21,880 --> 00:26:26,199
Speaker 8: are preprinted, pre made, and they're told to do And

488
00:26:26,240 --> 00:26:29,600
Speaker 8: that's what happened in Minnesota. This woman who was killed,

489
00:26:32,080 --> 00:26:38,320
Speaker 8: Miss good she was in that crew in getting directions

490
00:26:38,840 --> 00:26:47,640
Speaker 8: on how to disrupt ice investigations, and foolishly she went

491
00:26:47,720 --> 00:26:50,320
Speaker 8: out there and tried to do just that with her vehicle.

492
00:26:51,240 --> 00:26:54,240
Speaker 8: There wasn't some woman who just came out and said, Oh,

493
00:26:54,320 --> 00:26:57,480
Speaker 8: I don't like this immigration crackdown and I'm going to

494
00:26:57,560 --> 00:27:01,280
Speaker 8: do this on my own. That was not that. That

495
00:27:01,640 --> 00:27:05,560
Speaker 8: is a very well organized play. And New York City

496
00:27:05,600 --> 00:27:09,520
Speaker 8: has got probably the most sophisticated far left messaging system

497
00:27:09,560 --> 00:27:12,960
Speaker 8: in the world because this city there are a lot

498
00:27:13,000 --> 00:27:17,960
Speaker 8: of communists and socialists and anarchists here, a lot of them.

499
00:27:18,400 --> 00:27:19,960
Speaker 8: And that's why Mandanni is mayor.

500
00:27:20,320 --> 00:27:26,560
Speaker 2: Yeah, but where's this end? It just seems to escalate.

501
00:27:26,600 --> 00:27:28,400
Speaker 2: It used to be defund the police. Now it's run

502
00:27:28,440 --> 00:27:30,240
Speaker 2: them over. What's next? Where's this going?

503
00:27:31,119 --> 00:27:35,119
Speaker 8: Well, it's not going to go anywhere. I think it'll

504
00:27:35,160 --> 00:27:39,359
Speaker 8: be intensified because the Justice Department has to understand that

505
00:27:40,040 --> 00:27:43,440
Speaker 8: when you're in a confrontation where life and death might occur,

506
00:27:44,600 --> 00:27:47,960
Speaker 8: then you have to de escalate if you can. And

507
00:27:48,040 --> 00:27:52,600
Speaker 8: in Minnesota, and this is every police department, including NYPD,

508
00:27:53,440 --> 00:27:56,439
Speaker 8: has this in their manual that if its life or

509
00:27:56,560 --> 00:28:00,800
Speaker 8: death and there's another way out for the police for

510
00:28:00,880 --> 00:28:04,160
Speaker 8: the authorities, you've got to explore that way. So let

511
00:28:04,160 --> 00:28:07,639
Speaker 8: me give you a specific example. The woman was breaking

512
00:28:07,680 --> 00:28:13,080
Speaker 8: the law. She's committing a felony by blocking ice in Minnesota.

513
00:28:13,280 --> 00:28:16,199
Speaker 8: And not only that, she was arrogant to boot. And

514
00:28:16,240 --> 00:28:20,679
Speaker 8: that's why these guys got so upset. Number One, they

515
00:28:20,720 --> 00:28:24,240
Speaker 8: should not have gotten so upset. They should not have

516
00:28:24,440 --> 00:28:27,680
Speaker 8: used the F word and screaming. And no, that's how

517
00:28:27,720 --> 00:28:29,960
Speaker 8: you do it. You don't stand in front of a

518
00:28:30,080 --> 00:28:33,160
Speaker 8: vehicle because you know that vehicle might come at you.

519
00:28:33,560 --> 00:28:36,199
Speaker 8: And the agent was standing in front of the vehicle.

520
00:28:37,320 --> 00:28:41,480
Speaker 8: So whether that's poorly trained or I can't second guess

521
00:28:41,520 --> 00:28:46,240
Speaker 8: the police, but in a police training situation, they'd be

522
00:28:46,320 --> 00:28:48,800
Speaker 8: told don't stand in front of the vehicle. And then

523
00:28:48,880 --> 00:28:56,440
Speaker 8: once you unholster your weapon, that escalates everything. And so

524
00:28:56,560 --> 00:29:00,400
Speaker 8: you don't do that unless you absolutely have to do it.

525
00:29:00,800 --> 00:29:04,400
Speaker 8: See what I'm talking about. Yeah, there isn't There isn't

526
00:29:04,440 --> 00:29:07,240
Speaker 8: a court in the country that would convict this ice agent.

527
00:29:07,400 --> 00:29:10,160
Speaker 8: I don't believe there's one, even in Minnesota or Oregon,

528
00:29:10,240 --> 00:29:15,280
Speaker 8: these crazy states, because there is a reasonable doubt. And

529
00:29:15,640 --> 00:29:18,080
Speaker 8: if you look at the video when you slow it down,

530
00:29:18,560 --> 00:29:20,840
Speaker 8: this guy had a split second to make a decision.

531
00:29:21,240 --> 00:29:23,520
Speaker 8: And I'm sure he felt he was in jeopardy. I'm

532
00:29:23,560 --> 00:29:30,240
Speaker 8: one hundred percent sure of that. But he did take

533
00:29:30,240 --> 00:29:32,240
Speaker 8: the weapon out and he stood in front of the truck.

534
00:29:33,040 --> 00:29:37,840
Speaker 8: And I believe those two should be trained. People should

535
00:29:37,880 --> 00:29:40,560
Speaker 8: see that, law enforcement people and say, you know, there's

536
00:29:40,600 --> 00:29:42,200
Speaker 8: another way.

537
00:29:43,000 --> 00:29:46,680
Speaker 2: Yeah, you know. Alan Dershowitz said, if he had a

538
00:29:46,720 --> 00:29:50,160
Speaker 2: student who described that as murder, he would flunk him

539
00:29:50,160 --> 00:29:51,720
Speaker 2: in the class. You would just flunk.

540
00:29:52,920 --> 00:29:57,120
Speaker 8: That's defamation. And that's what that idiot Steve Kerr, the

541
00:29:57,200 --> 00:30:01,080
Speaker 8: coach of the Golden State Warriors, said, And he's just

542
00:30:01,120 --> 00:30:04,320
Speaker 8: an idiot. I mean, this guy sits there with this

543
00:30:04,520 --> 00:30:08,480
Speaker 8: arrogant look, like, come on, Steve, come on debate me.

544
00:30:09,360 --> 00:30:11,960
Speaker 8: How long does it think that Steve would last one

545
00:30:12,000 --> 00:30:15,840
Speaker 8: on one with me some more? How long? That's okay?

546
00:30:16,560 --> 00:30:19,840
Speaker 8: So when you're a commitment, when you're accusing somebody a murder,

547
00:30:19,880 --> 00:30:25,080
Speaker 8: and you know this wasn't a premeditated murder, all right,

548
00:30:25,600 --> 00:30:29,160
Speaker 8: they wanted to get the woman off the street, but

549
00:30:29,200 --> 00:30:32,400
Speaker 8: as they should have. But there comes a point where

550
00:30:33,000 --> 00:30:37,240
Speaker 8: you have to decide what's the best tactic here. We

551
00:30:37,280 --> 00:30:40,480
Speaker 8: don't want anybody dead. If there's another woman shot dead

552
00:30:40,840 --> 00:30:44,560
Speaker 8: in this country by Ice agents that's going to turn

553
00:30:44,840 --> 00:30:49,959
Speaker 8: against the Trump administration. The people will turn. Don't want that,

554
00:30:51,040 --> 00:30:55,800
Speaker 8: just like Kent State during Vietnam, the four people shot

555
00:30:55,880 --> 00:31:00,600
Speaker 8: by the National Guard on the university campus. Americans want

556
00:31:00,680 --> 00:31:04,720
Speaker 8: is a law enforced. I believe that Trump will prevail

557
00:31:04,840 --> 00:31:09,280
Speaker 8: on this, that most Americans are behind him, because it

558
00:31:09,320 --> 00:31:13,080
Speaker 8: wouldn't have been elected if they weren't. But there's got

559
00:31:13,120 --> 00:31:15,480
Speaker 8: to be a methodical way to go about it, not

560
00:31:16,080 --> 00:31:17,080
Speaker 8: a chaotic way.

561
00:31:19,080 --> 00:31:24,160
Speaker 2: Yeah. But these these states, these cities, these Mandanni's locals

562
00:31:24,800 --> 00:31:26,920
Speaker 2: mayor fright, they're never going to back down. It's always

563
00:31:26,960 --> 00:31:30,400
Speaker 2: going to be chaos caused by them.

564
00:31:30,680 --> 00:31:35,360
Speaker 8: That's true. There's no doubt that the Minnesota people incited

565
00:31:35,520 --> 00:31:39,000
Speaker 8: that woman to go out on it and block those

566
00:31:39,000 --> 00:31:43,400
Speaker 8: Ice agents. There's no question. Now Mandanni himself, he's a

567
00:31:43,400 --> 00:31:48,000
Speaker 8: little shrewder than that. What I'm picking up from him

568
00:31:48,120 --> 00:31:52,200
Speaker 8: is a lot of behind the scenes stuff that he's

569
00:31:52,240 --> 00:31:54,480
Speaker 8: not saying to the people. Let me give you a

570
00:31:54,600 --> 00:31:59,000
Speaker 8: very vivid example. What he wants to do is to

571
00:31:59,200 --> 00:32:05,280
Speaker 8: drive landlords out of New York City. He wants them

572
00:32:05,840 --> 00:32:08,479
Speaker 8: to sell their buildings or to walk away from their

573
00:32:08,520 --> 00:32:12,120
Speaker 8: buildings in some cases. And how he's accomplishing that is

574
00:32:12,160 --> 00:32:16,320
Speaker 8: to slap so many regulations on landlords they're going to

575
00:32:16,320 --> 00:32:20,520
Speaker 8: be impossible to make a profit. And then he wants

576
00:32:20,520 --> 00:32:27,360
Speaker 8: the city to then buy or sees in some areas

577
00:32:27,760 --> 00:32:32,040
Speaker 8: all the housing. That's what Man Donnie wants, but he

578
00:32:32,080 --> 00:32:35,600
Speaker 8: won't tell you that. But behind the scenes, if you're

579
00:32:35,640 --> 00:32:38,640
Speaker 8: a landlord, and I know one of my friends owns

580
00:32:38,680 --> 00:32:42,040
Speaker 8: a lot of buildings, it's almost impossible for these guys

581
00:32:42,080 --> 00:32:45,040
Speaker 8: to function now in a business sense because there's so

582
00:32:45,080 --> 00:32:48,280
Speaker 8: many city regulations on it. And what that's going to

583
00:32:48,360 --> 00:32:50,960
Speaker 8: lead to is slums. Who's going to fix the buildings

584
00:32:51,640 --> 00:32:54,240
Speaker 8: if you're heating those out, or if something happens, who's

585
00:32:54,240 --> 00:32:56,360
Speaker 8: going to come in and fix the landslord? Landlord's not

586
00:32:56,360 --> 00:33:02,160
Speaker 8: going to do it. Who's going to do it? Man Donnie. Yeah,

587
00:33:02,200 --> 00:33:05,000
Speaker 8: So that's the kind of stuff that this guy is doing,

588
00:33:05,560 --> 00:33:09,200
Speaker 8: and that New Yorkers don't even know. They have no

589
00:33:09,320 --> 00:33:14,800
Speaker 8: idea that this guy wants the city to run pretty

590
00:33:14,880 --> 00:33:20,520
Speaker 8: much everything. Wants to take out individual capitalism and replace

591
00:33:20,560 --> 00:33:25,320
Speaker 8: it with what he calls collectivism.

592
00:33:24,400 --> 00:33:28,240
Speaker 2: Which is always disaster every time it's tried, and it

593
00:33:28,320 --> 00:33:28,920
Speaker 2: has happened.

594
00:33:28,920 --> 00:33:32,960
Speaker 8: One country in the history of mankind that is prospered

595
00:33:33,080 --> 00:33:37,640
Speaker 8: under collectivism, not one. Well, these people don't care about that.

596
00:33:37,720 --> 00:33:40,440
Speaker 8: It's all about power for them. That's what it's about.

597
00:33:40,760 --> 00:33:42,760
