Speaker 1: Boston's Bulldozer operates seven days a week. The Kuner Report

2
00:00:04,640 --> 00:00:08,039
Speaker 1: weekend edition WRKO, The Voice of Boston.

3
00:00:08,440 --> 00:00:12,240
Speaker 2: Let me ask you two questions, Nay, double barrel question

4
00:00:13,119 --> 00:00:18,320
Speaker 2: number one, what do you think best explains the FBI

5
00:00:18,360 --> 00:00:24,320
Speaker 2: and frankly, the Secret Services failure? In what happened on Butler, Pennsylvania,

6
00:00:25,120 --> 00:00:30,600
Speaker 2: July thirteenth, twenty twenty four the attempted assassination obviously of Trump.

7
00:00:32,120 --> 00:00:36,800
Speaker 2: Is it A is it just sheer in competence? Or

8
00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:42,640
Speaker 2: B it was part of a larger conspiracy? Because I

9
00:00:42,720 --> 00:00:45,600
Speaker 2: have to tell you to me, those are the only

10
00:00:45,640 --> 00:00:51,440
Speaker 2: two possible conclusions, especially now after these bombshell reports in

11
00:00:51,520 --> 00:00:54,960
Speaker 2: the New York Post about the massive cover up about

12
00:00:55,000 --> 00:00:58,120
Speaker 2: the assassin that would be assassin Thomas Crooks and how

13
00:00:58,160 --> 00:01:00,720
Speaker 2: much the FBI and the Secret Service in line to us.

14
00:01:02,240 --> 00:01:04,600
Speaker 2: So to me, there's really only it's door one or

15
00:01:04,640 --> 00:01:07,760
Speaker 2: door two, And I don't know which one scale. Honestly,

16
00:01:07,920 --> 00:01:11,600
Speaker 2: I don't know what's more frightening. One that they're that

17
00:01:11,959 --> 00:01:17,240
Speaker 2: incompetent and they're just covering up their incompetence and their

18
00:01:17,280 --> 00:01:24,000
Speaker 2: tracks because they're that inept a ya yai ai ya yai.

19
00:01:25,640 --> 00:01:25,959
Speaker 1: Or b.

20
00:01:27,560 --> 00:01:31,880
Speaker 2: It's because there are there's a mole or moles in

21
00:01:32,000 --> 00:01:36,000
Speaker 2: people who've infiltrated the FBI and the Secret Service, radical

22
00:01:36,040 --> 00:01:41,880
Speaker 2: anti Trump, leftists who want the president dead. There's no

23
00:01:42,000 --> 00:01:45,960
Speaker 2: door three on this, and honestly, I don't know what's worse.

24
00:01:47,160 --> 00:01:47,400
Speaker 3: Now.

25
00:01:47,520 --> 00:01:51,680
Speaker 2: That's question numero uno the second question, And I want

26
00:01:51,680 --> 00:01:54,000
Speaker 2: to credit Mark on Messenger because I think he makes

27
00:01:54,040 --> 00:01:59,040
Speaker 2: a very good point. Should Dan Bongino, because remember Bongino

28
00:01:59,200 --> 00:02:01,640
Speaker 2: was in the Secret Service before we got into media,

29
00:02:01,960 --> 00:02:05,320
Speaker 2: and now he's the deputy FBI director. And look, there's

30
00:02:05,320 --> 00:02:09,480
Speaker 2: no question about it. Let's be charitable. He is floundering

31
00:02:09,800 --> 00:02:14,280
Speaker 2: as deputy FBI director. Okay, let's put it, you know, charitably, mildly.

32
00:02:14,960 --> 00:02:19,519
Speaker 2: He's not doing very well. He's struggling. Should Dan Bongino

33
00:02:20,320 --> 00:02:24,120
Speaker 2: have been assigned as the head of the Secret Service instead?

34
00:02:24,240 --> 00:02:26,960
Speaker 2: In other words, he should never have been appointed as

35
00:02:27,080 --> 00:02:30,800
Speaker 2: FBI director, but instead made head of the Secret Service,

36
00:02:31,480 --> 00:02:35,079
Speaker 2: bring in people that he knows and he trusts, and

37
00:02:35,280 --> 00:02:39,160
Speaker 2: clean out the Secret Service. In other words, that that's

38
00:02:39,280 --> 00:02:42,559
Speaker 2: more up his you know, that's more up his wheelhouse.

39
00:02:43,200 --> 00:02:46,280
Speaker 2: He knows the Secret Service, he comes from the Secret Service,

40
00:02:46,880 --> 00:02:50,720
Speaker 2: he has friends and connections in the Secret Service, and

41
00:02:51,040 --> 00:02:53,280
Speaker 2: maybe that would have been a much better fit for

42
00:02:53,400 --> 00:02:56,639
Speaker 2: him than making him the numbers, you know, the number

43
00:02:56,680 --> 00:03:01,200
Speaker 2: two law enforcement official in the country, because clearly he

44
00:03:01,320 --> 00:03:06,600
Speaker 2: and cash Pttel it's not working. So my question to

45
00:03:06,720 --> 00:03:12,080
Speaker 2: you should Trump reassign Dan Bongino and make him the

46
00:03:12,120 --> 00:03:16,359
Speaker 2: head of the Secret Service. I'm just asking six one

47
00:03:16,480 --> 00:03:21,359
Speaker 2: seven two six six sixty eight sixty eight. Mo on

00:03:26,360 --> 00:03:29,079
Speaker 4: Hey cooner man. Last time I called you, we were

51
00:03:29,080 --> 00:03:33,160
Speaker 4: discussing how fragile the grid was into New York when

52
00:03:33,200 --> 00:03:34,440
Speaker 4: Mandannie had yes.

53
00:03:34,680 --> 00:03:37,000
Speaker 3: Yes, I remember that call. That was a very good call.

54
00:03:37,080 --> 00:03:39,560
Speaker 4: You know, I got cut off. Someone shut me off.

55
00:03:40,880 --> 00:03:45,840
Speaker 3: That was probably Mike. Okay, but don't take it personally, MO.

56
00:03:46,040 --> 00:03:49,440
Speaker 3: He cuts me off all the time. Mike.

57
00:03:49,680 --> 00:03:49,800
Speaker 4: Uh.

58
00:03:50,120 --> 00:03:51,760
Speaker 3: You know that's why I call him Maestro. Mike.

59
00:03:52,480 --> 00:03:55,720
Speaker 2: Mike thinks he's the show. I'm just being honest with you.

60
00:03:55,800 --> 00:03:56,040
Speaker 3: Mike.

61
00:03:57,240 --> 00:04:00,840
Speaker 2: Mike thinks he's the Maestro, So please go ahead, MO.

62
00:04:01,000 --> 00:04:02,320
Speaker 2: What's on your mind?

63
00:04:02,680 --> 00:04:04,840
Speaker 4: Well, first of all, that was I was just relieved

64
00:04:04,840 --> 00:04:06,920
Speaker 4: because I heard you talking how you thought people were

65
00:04:06,920 --> 00:04:10,120
Speaker 4: cutting in and out on things, and I'm there somebody

66
00:04:10,160 --> 00:04:10,760
Speaker 4: cut me off.

67
00:04:11,040 --> 00:04:14,160
Speaker 2: That was Mike again. Really, I mean Mo, he cuts

68
00:04:14,200 --> 00:04:16,000
Speaker 2: me off, and he loves cutting me off.

69
00:04:17,720 --> 00:04:20,160
Speaker 3: You know. See now Mike is getting mad.

70
00:04:20,240 --> 00:04:22,400
Speaker 2: Now Mike is in my ear saying, tell them Mo

71
00:04:22,520 --> 00:04:24,880
Speaker 2: to get to the point or I will cut him

72
00:04:24,880 --> 00:04:30,880
Speaker 2: off again. So Mike, please, let's not upset Mike here, Well,

73
00:04:31,800 --> 00:04:33,440
Speaker 2: go ahead. The floor is yours.

74
00:04:34,000 --> 00:04:37,240
Speaker 4: Okay. That was really the basic question because I heard

75
00:04:37,240 --> 00:04:39,400
Speaker 4: you saying that you were having trouble with stuff cutting

76
00:04:39,400 --> 00:04:41,359
Speaker 4: in and out, and I'm there. I wonder if someone

77
00:04:41,400 --> 00:04:43,640
Speaker 4: else has had this happen, and I figured i'd call you.

78
00:04:44,279 --> 00:04:49,400
Speaker 4: But you guys are doing a good job, and you're

79
00:04:49,480 --> 00:04:51,560
Speaker 4: a lifeline, and I guarantee you the guys in the

80
00:04:51,600 --> 00:04:52,919
Speaker 4: White House are listening to you.

81
00:04:53,000 --> 00:04:55,400
Speaker 2: Oh, I know they are. I mean, I'm being honest

82
00:04:55,400 --> 00:04:57,880
Speaker 2: with you, I know they are. I'm not saying Trump does,

83
00:04:57,920 --> 00:04:59,920
Speaker 2: I'm not saying the guys you know six to ten

84
00:05:00,200 --> 00:05:03,640
Speaker 2: he's listening to every second. But that's why I try

85
00:05:03,680 --> 00:05:07,680
Speaker 2: to give callers as much leeway and time as possible,

86
00:05:08,320 --> 00:05:11,839
Speaker 2: because how do I say this. You're the pulse of

87
00:05:11,839 --> 00:05:16,720
Speaker 2: the country, Cooner, country is maga, You're the heartland. So

88
00:05:17,000 --> 00:05:20,480
Speaker 2: I want them to hear what the base is saying.

89
00:05:21,600 --> 00:05:24,479
Speaker 2: And so when the base is saying, as they did recently,

90
00:05:24,640 --> 00:05:28,880
Speaker 2: I'm telling you prices are too high. I love the guy,

91
00:05:29,000 --> 00:05:31,440
Speaker 2: but the prices are just too high, and we want

92
00:05:31,480 --> 00:05:34,239
Speaker 2: him focusing more on affordability and bringing prices down.

93
00:05:34,720 --> 00:05:35,160
Speaker 3: Bingo.

94
00:05:35,800 --> 00:05:39,440
Speaker 2: They got that to the President right away, that many

95
00:05:39,480 --> 00:05:41,080
Speaker 2: of you are not happy about the H one B

96
00:05:41,200 --> 00:05:45,080
Speaker 2: visas they're not happy about the Chinese students. He's getting

97
00:05:45,120 --> 00:05:48,880
Speaker 2: that message. So that's one of the reasons why I

98
00:05:48,920 --> 00:05:52,279
Speaker 2: fought for editorial independence on this show. It's not just

99
00:05:52,360 --> 00:05:57,360
Speaker 2: for me, it's for you. And look, some people do

100
00:05:57,560 --> 00:06:00,240
Speaker 2: say crazy things. That's just the way it is. But

101
00:06:00,440 --> 00:06:03,280
Speaker 2: I'd rather that people say crazy things and we just

102
00:06:03,320 --> 00:06:06,240
Speaker 2: say no, we disagree, but you have the right to

103
00:06:06,320 --> 00:06:09,800
Speaker 2: say it because what you get is you get people

104
00:06:09,800 --> 00:06:14,720
Speaker 2: saying brilliant things. So that's what free speech does, and

105
00:06:14,760 --> 00:06:17,280
Speaker 2: that's why I'm totally against censorship. And that's the heart

106
00:06:17,320 --> 00:06:20,359
Speaker 2: and soul of the show. And again, I'm going to

107
00:06:20,360 --> 00:06:24,040
Speaker 2: give away my negotiating strategy. Everybody knows it. I don't

108
00:06:24,080 --> 00:06:27,920
Speaker 2: ask for money. I ask for free speech and it

109
00:06:28,040 --> 00:06:30,800
Speaker 2: served me very well, and at every negotiation it throws

110
00:06:30,839 --> 00:06:33,560
Speaker 2: them off. I don't know why every time, I mean,

111
00:06:33,600 --> 00:06:36,360
Speaker 2: I even telegraph it. You're like, but for these ratings,

112
00:06:36,400 --> 00:06:39,360
Speaker 2: don't you want more money? Nope, I just want freedom

113
00:06:39,400 --> 00:06:42,279
Speaker 2: of speech. Give me the chance to do the show

114
00:06:42,320 --> 00:06:46,839
Speaker 2: without censorship and knock on wood. It's working and I

115
00:06:46,880 --> 00:06:47,720
Speaker 2: want to thank all of.

116
00:06:47,640 --> 00:06:48,160
Speaker 3: You for it.
