1
00:00:00,040 --> 00:00:03,239
Speaker 1: I follow her on substack, where she's got just columns

2
00:00:03,240 --> 00:00:06,040
Speaker 1: and videos and podcasts, interviews, all sorts of stuff, a

3
00:00:06,040 --> 00:00:10,840
Speaker 1: lot of content and culture dot substack dot com and culture.

4
00:00:10,880 --> 00:00:14,360
Speaker 2: How you doing fantastic? How are you, Mark Simone? I

5
00:00:14,400 --> 00:00:15,840
Speaker 2: miss talking to you last couple week.

6
00:00:15,920 --> 00:00:18,960
Speaker 1: Yeah, but what a first week of twenty twenty six.

7
00:00:19,120 --> 00:00:21,000
Speaker 1: Look at all that's happened in one week. You got

8
00:00:21,079 --> 00:00:23,079
Speaker 1: rid of Tim Waltz, Madureau everything.

9
00:00:23,079 --> 00:00:26,440
Speaker 2: What do you think I know, Yeah, Chump's not letting

10
00:00:26,440 --> 00:00:28,639
Speaker 2: the grass grow under his feet. We have a short

11
00:00:28,640 --> 00:00:31,280
Speaker 2: amount of time. I think it's fantastic. I have a

12
00:00:31,320 --> 00:00:33,600
Speaker 2: column coming out on it later. I want to go

13
00:00:33,680 --> 00:00:39,840
Speaker 2: back to the era of a semi competent CIA, which

14
00:00:39,840 --> 00:00:43,400
Speaker 2: we haven't had recently but may have now, installing puppet

15
00:00:43,400 --> 00:00:48,800
Speaker 2: governments throughout Latin America. They're obviously incapable of governing themselves,

16
00:00:48,920 --> 00:00:52,159
Speaker 2: and things were going great when the CIA and the

17
00:00:52,200 --> 00:00:55,960
Speaker 2: state departments and John Foster Dulles were running things, knocking

18
00:00:56,000 --> 00:01:00,920
Speaker 2: out the incompetence, I mean, the problem. George Penn, the

19
00:01:01,040 --> 00:01:06,560
Speaker 2: legendary diplomat, took a tour through Latin America, knowing the

20
00:01:06,800 --> 00:01:10,280
Speaker 2: strategic importance to the US and basically concluded these people

21
00:01:10,280 --> 00:01:13,920
Speaker 2: are incapable of governing themselves. We should take all measures.

22
00:01:14,200 --> 00:01:18,160
Speaker 2: Is this will be a problem for the US. We

23
00:01:18,600 --> 00:01:22,080
Speaker 2: shouldn't worry about democratic niceties that we would not accept

24
00:01:22,600 --> 00:01:26,960
Speaker 2: in this country. And that was followed up until liberals

25
00:01:26,959 --> 00:01:29,600
Speaker 2: got the idea that's, oh no, they're just as good

26
00:01:29,680 --> 00:01:32,479
Speaker 2: at self governance as we are. Well, obviously they aren't.

27
00:01:33,080 --> 00:01:36,039
Speaker 2: Over and over again you get the same pattern. I

28
00:01:36,040 --> 00:01:39,240
Speaker 2: mean Venezuela for example, which I've written about a few times.

29
00:01:39,560 --> 00:01:45,160
Speaker 2: It was the people, i e. Peasants who keep voting

30
00:01:45,280 --> 00:01:49,200
Speaker 2: for these communists who promised to steal from the rich

31
00:01:49,280 --> 00:01:51,640
Speaker 2: and give them all their money, which they proceed to do,

32
00:01:51,760 --> 00:01:53,919
Speaker 2: and then the country is out of money. They can't

33
00:01:53,920 --> 00:01:57,520
Speaker 2: get loyal out of the ground. No, there has to

34
00:01:57,560 --> 00:02:01,800
Speaker 2: be a paternalistic relationship to between the United States and

35
00:02:01,920 --> 00:02:05,200
Speaker 2: Latin America. And it's weird that the media is acting

36
00:02:05,240 --> 00:02:08,920
Speaker 2: as if we have no idea what this means to install.

37
00:02:09,360 --> 00:02:12,000
Speaker 2: No that we'll be running things, No no boots on

38
00:02:12,040 --> 00:02:17,160
Speaker 2: the ground, no nation building. We just have our own,

39
00:02:17,600 --> 00:02:24,120
Speaker 2: our own US backed ruler to save the people from themselves.

40
00:02:24,400 --> 00:02:26,920
Speaker 1: Yeah, but who are we to complain about their government?

41
00:02:27,000 --> 00:02:30,200
Speaker 1: We just elected Kathy Hockel and Mom Donnie, so who

42
00:02:30,200 --> 00:02:30,880
Speaker 1: are we to talk?

43
00:02:31,040 --> 00:02:33,040
Speaker 2: Yes, well, New York should sit this one out.

44
00:02:35,560 --> 00:02:38,520
Speaker 1: And Mom Donnie just put this woman in charge of housing.

45
00:02:38,560 --> 00:02:44,720
Speaker 1: And apparently one time she said home ownership is white

46
00:02:44,720 --> 00:02:47,240
Speaker 1: supremacy and we must see.

47
00:02:47,280 --> 00:02:51,239
Speaker 2: Private press read in the New York Post. She owns

48
00:02:51,280 --> 00:02:55,720
Speaker 2: a one point seven million dollar home in Tennessee. So

49
00:02:55,800 --> 00:02:59,080
Speaker 2: at least there's no hypocrisy from the left. No, not ever.

50
00:02:59,800 --> 00:03:02,400
Speaker 2: But wow, that is this is this is not going

51
00:03:02,480 --> 00:03:06,600
Speaker 2: to be good for housing in New York. It probably,

52
00:03:06,639 --> 00:03:10,600
Speaker 2: as we've discussed before, these rent control measures just to

53
00:03:10,639 --> 00:03:14,520
Speaker 2: invariably drive up the price of housing and limit the supply.

54
00:03:15,639 --> 00:03:18,800
Speaker 2: As you have landlords who were forced to just walk

55
00:03:18,840 --> 00:03:23,760
Speaker 2: away from their properties when the taxes and maintenance fees

56
00:03:23,840 --> 00:03:26,440
Speaker 2: are more than what they are allowed to charge and

57
00:03:26,520 --> 00:03:30,800
Speaker 2: rent by law. I mean, how long are they supposed

58
00:03:30,840 --> 00:03:34,200
Speaker 2: to keep losing money every month? They just walk away

59
00:03:34,280 --> 00:03:36,480
Speaker 2: and there goes there goes more housing.

60
00:03:37,040 --> 00:03:40,320
Speaker 1: Yeah, hey, don't you feel bad for the left wing,

61
00:03:40,360 --> 00:03:43,200
Speaker 1: the Democrats right now? These liberals, because remember they had

62
00:03:43,240 --> 00:03:45,560
Speaker 1: to all go out and buy Ukrainian flags, then they

63
00:03:45,560 --> 00:03:48,240
Speaker 1: had to go buy Hamas flags. Then they had to

64
00:03:48,280 --> 00:03:51,360
Speaker 1: buy Mexican flags. Then they had to get Somali flags.

65
00:03:51,480 --> 00:03:53,520
Speaker 1: Now they got to go get venezueland flags.

66
00:03:53,880 --> 00:03:58,400
Speaker 2: It's rough, at least I prefer it to. I love

67
00:03:58,400 --> 00:04:01,720
Speaker 2: when they have these left is pro tests and you

68
00:04:01,760 --> 00:04:06,080
Speaker 2: know they'll have one sharp George Soros type instructing them

69
00:04:06,120 --> 00:04:11,880
Speaker 2: all go buy an American flag. Yeah.

70
00:04:11,960 --> 00:04:14,920
Speaker 1: For Republican it's easy, just by one American flag except

71
00:04:14,960 --> 00:04:16,159
Speaker 1: for life, that's all you need.

72
00:04:16,320 --> 00:04:19,560
Speaker 2: They probably have their American flags if they're Republicans.

73
00:04:20,040 --> 00:04:22,880
Speaker 1: H And what about Tim Watz? Is that the silliest

74
00:04:22,880 --> 00:04:24,640
Speaker 1: guy you've ever seen? Did you ever think it would

75
00:04:24,720 --> 00:04:28,400
Speaker 1: be over this fast for him?

76
00:04:28,400 --> 00:04:31,839
Speaker 2: Not totally surprised. Man, he was a boob from the

77
00:04:31,880 --> 00:04:39,080
Speaker 2: moment he showed up. Uh, it's it's it's a maybe

78
00:04:39,080 --> 00:04:42,599
Speaker 2: a teams a bit annoying that. I mean, you did

79
00:04:42,640 --> 00:04:45,480
Speaker 2: almost become the vice president of the United States. All

80
00:04:45,520 --> 00:04:49,239
Speaker 2: of this was known when he was running. There were

81
00:04:49,279 --> 00:04:54,520
Speaker 2: there were surprisingly enough liberal administrators of these government programs.

82
00:04:54,560 --> 00:04:57,919
Speaker 2: Well you know, regular Minnesotans who were trying to be

83
00:04:58,000 --> 00:05:01,880
Speaker 2: whistleblowers and being retaliated it against out of Minnesota. This

84
00:05:02,000 --> 00:05:06,120
Speaker 2: was a story there for the taking. I guess, I

85
00:05:06,120 --> 00:05:09,679
Speaker 2: guess you and I read about it and talked about

86
00:05:09,680 --> 00:05:13,120
Speaker 2: it a little bit. It was showing up on Twitter

87
00:05:13,200 --> 00:05:17,480
Speaker 2: and in conservative publications like Breitbart, not in the detail

88
00:05:17,680 --> 00:05:21,599
Speaker 2: we have now. But when was the mainstream media going

89
00:05:21,600 --> 00:05:24,560
Speaker 2: to get around to covering this about the possible next

90
00:05:24,640 --> 00:05:26,560
Speaker 2: vice president of the United States?

91
00:05:27,400 --> 00:05:31,240
Speaker 1: I think never was the date they had picked. But hey,

92
00:05:31,279 --> 00:05:34,599
Speaker 1: the other thing I'm watching every left wing fake news,

93
00:05:34,880 --> 00:05:39,359
Speaker 1: they're all keep saying about Venezuela's a violation of international law.

94
00:05:40,279 --> 00:05:42,560
Speaker 1: Nobody can figure out where the hell is this international

95
00:05:42,640 --> 00:05:44,440
Speaker 1: law they're talking about? Where does that exist?

96
00:05:44,440 --> 00:05:48,839
Speaker 2: There is no law in the imaginations of small children

97
00:05:48,920 --> 00:05:52,640
Speaker 2: and liberals like Santa Claus and the Easter Bunny, there

98
00:05:52,720 --> 00:05:55,880
Speaker 2: is no such thing as international law, international laws. Whatever

99
00:05:55,920 --> 00:06:00,320
Speaker 2: the United States says international law is. So yes, it

100
00:06:00,440 --> 00:06:06,440
Speaker 2: is hilarious when liberals go around wailing about the violations

101
00:06:06,480 --> 00:06:08,840
Speaker 2: of something that doesn't exist. Yet tell us what? Tell

102
00:06:08,960 --> 00:06:10,320
Speaker 2: us what? Santa Clause says?

103
00:06:10,400 --> 00:06:10,679
Speaker 3: Next?

104
00:06:11,040 --> 00:06:12,919
Speaker 1: Yeah, so what are we gonna do here in New

105
00:06:13,000 --> 00:06:14,640
Speaker 1: York with Mom Donnie? You know this is going to

106
00:06:14,680 --> 00:06:15,520
Speaker 1: get out of control.

107
00:06:20,880 --> 00:06:22,640
Speaker 3: It's not looking good so far.

108
00:06:22,960 --> 00:06:25,480
Speaker 2: I mean, I mean, there was I had some I

109
00:06:25,480 --> 00:06:27,960
Speaker 2: don't know if it's it's hope, or if it just

110
00:06:27,960 --> 00:06:34,360
Speaker 2: seems kind of logical that he doesn't seem like a

111
00:06:34,720 --> 00:06:37,359
Speaker 2: like a half wit the way Tim Waltz does, so

112
00:06:38,400 --> 00:06:40,400
Speaker 2: I kind of. I mean, when he decided to keep

113
00:06:40,520 --> 00:06:42,760
Speaker 2: and announce before the election that he was going to

114
00:06:42,839 --> 00:06:46,240
Speaker 2: keep the police commissioner Jessica Tish, I thought, okay, well,

115
00:06:46,240 --> 00:06:50,560
Speaker 2: he does at least know his entire mayoralty will will

116
00:06:50,600 --> 00:06:54,719
Speaker 2: go to hell if if he unleashes criminals on the

117
00:06:54,800 --> 00:06:57,360
Speaker 2: citizen ry. And I thought maybe it would be a

118
00:06:57,360 --> 00:07:01,000
Speaker 2: lot of left wing talk, but he would maintain, you know,

119
00:07:01,160 --> 00:07:08,640
Speaker 2: just to satisfy his it's not particularly astute base, but

120
00:07:08,680 --> 00:07:12,160
Speaker 2: then actually do a decent job running the city. No,

121
00:07:12,320 --> 00:07:16,040
Speaker 2: it does not look like that at all. Marximone. He

122
00:07:16,160 --> 00:07:16,800
Speaker 2: seem to.

123
00:07:16,920 --> 00:07:21,000
Speaker 3: Really believe he's going to put all these DEI and

124
00:07:21,560 --> 00:07:26,160
Speaker 3: left incompetence in important government positions and know that really

125
00:07:26,200 --> 00:07:27,280
Speaker 3: does not vote well.

126
00:07:27,760 --> 00:07:31,240
Speaker 1: Well, but it's just the third term of Deblasio. All

127
00:07:31,280 --> 00:07:33,800
Speaker 1: these same people were in the Deblasio administration. It was bad,

128
00:07:33,840 --> 00:07:36,200
Speaker 1: but we got through it. So we'll get through this,

129
00:07:36,280 --> 00:07:38,400
Speaker 1: won't we.

130
00:07:38,400 --> 00:07:40,760
Speaker 2: Well, it is New York City, and New York City

131
00:07:40,760 --> 00:07:43,720
Speaker 2: it's a hard city to wreck. And all I can

132
00:07:43,760 --> 00:07:47,480
Speaker 2: say is that's what we thought for many years about

133
00:07:47,480 --> 00:07:51,360
Speaker 2: the most beautiful state in the Union, California. But you know,

134
00:07:52,240 --> 00:07:54,960
Speaker 2: let Democrats put their minds to it, they can wreck anything.

135
00:07:55,800 --> 00:07:58,520
Speaker 1: So you know, they always love this socialism, and you

136
00:07:58,560 --> 00:08:00,480
Speaker 1: could point out it's never worked in where in the

137
00:08:00,480 --> 00:08:03,520
Speaker 1: world the last ten thousand times had failed. But don't

138
00:08:03,520 --> 00:08:06,720
Speaker 1: they also ever noticed that whenever they do these big programs,

139
00:08:07,440 --> 00:08:10,400
Speaker 1: billions of dollars go missing. The Blasio lost a billion

140
00:08:10,440 --> 00:08:13,360
Speaker 1: dollars in that fake program. We just saw eighteen billion

141
00:08:13,440 --> 00:08:16,120
Speaker 1: go missing in Minnesota. Don't they ever notice all the

142
00:08:16,160 --> 00:08:16,960
Speaker 1: money goes missing?

143
00:08:18,640 --> 00:08:21,440
Speaker 2: Hilariously, I was just looking. I was just on Twitter

144
00:08:21,520 --> 00:08:25,440
Speaker 2: before calling in to my friend Mickey Cows and tweeted

145
00:08:25,480 --> 00:08:28,560
Speaker 2: out something about this Minnesota fraud, and his very left

146
00:08:28,600 --> 00:08:31,440
Speaker 2: wing brother tweeted back at him, saying, you know, this

147
00:08:31,600 --> 00:08:34,640
Speaker 2: is the fault of conservatives that this program had been

148
00:08:35,040 --> 00:08:39,800
Speaker 2: I've been government run, we never would have had this fraud.

149
00:08:40,400 --> 00:08:45,760
Speaker 2: This is simultaneously with two hundred billion being stolen from

150
00:08:45,760 --> 00:08:48,400
Speaker 2: the COVID releef funds.

151
00:08:49,840 --> 00:08:53,280
Speaker 1: No, it's just off a hey year old buddy. George

152
00:08:53,320 --> 00:08:55,400
Speaker 1: Conway is coming to New York. He didn't live here.

153
00:08:55,520 --> 00:08:58,679
Speaker 1: But he's running for Jerry Nadler's congressional seat. You think

154
00:08:58,679 --> 00:08:59,520
Speaker 1: he has any chance?

155
00:09:01,160 --> 00:09:08,120
Speaker 2: Uh, well, it elected Jerry Mandler. I can't say I

156
00:09:08,160 --> 00:09:11,360
Speaker 2: really have my finger on the pulse of those voters.

157
00:09:12,720 --> 00:09:16,720
Speaker 2: I don't know. It's very it's very strange. George and I,

158
00:09:16,800 --> 00:09:19,640
Speaker 2: weirdly enough, were best friends for a long time. I

159
00:09:19,679 --> 00:09:23,080
Speaker 2: introduced him to his wife. There was no daylight between

160
00:09:23,120 --> 00:09:25,800
Speaker 2: our positions. And I don't know a lot of people

161
00:09:25,800 --> 00:09:27,199
Speaker 2: Trump just just broken.

162
00:09:27,679 --> 00:09:29,640
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's true. There are people that just I was

163
00:09:29,679 --> 00:09:32,360
Speaker 1: when Trump came along, they just went off the deep end.

164
00:09:32,760 --> 00:09:33,640
Speaker 1: There's a bunch of them.

165
00:09:34,000 --> 00:09:36,840
Speaker 2: But it's strange. He's not the only one of my friends.

166
00:09:36,880 --> 00:09:39,200
Speaker 2: And it's one thing. I mean, you know, I have

167
00:09:39,400 --> 00:09:43,400
Speaker 2: my I have my complaints with with Trump. There's a

168
00:09:43,440 --> 00:09:47,400
Speaker 2: lot to complain about there. But when you have people

169
00:09:47,440 --> 00:09:51,080
Speaker 2: who have been had certain certain and like I said,

170
00:09:51,120 --> 00:09:55,320
Speaker 2: George is the only one a certain worldview, you know,

171
00:09:55,480 --> 00:10:02,200
Speaker 2: anti crime for example, anti public violin, anti communism, and

172
00:10:02,600 --> 00:10:06,440
Speaker 2: just because I don't know, they don't like Trump again,

173
00:10:06,720 --> 00:10:12,000
Speaker 2: lots to dislike there, they suddenly slip on every single

174
00:10:12,080 --> 00:10:18,280
Speaker 2: position they've ever held, believed argued written about It's a

175
00:10:18,559 --> 00:10:22,120
Speaker 2: very strange phenomenon and I've seen it, i'd say a

176
00:10:22,120 --> 00:10:23,640
