1 00:00:00,680 --> 00:00:05,200 Speaker 1: Marksimone on sevent tenor. 2 00:00:09,640 --> 00:00:14,319 Speaker 2: Well, hey, the final day of winter today, Winter is over. 3 00:00:14,640 --> 00:00:18,760 Speaker 2: Today's the last day. Spring begins tomorrow. That is great news. 4 00:00:18,840 --> 00:00:22,360 Speaker 2: So we're talking about this last hour. They're trying to 5 00:00:22,400 --> 00:00:28,160 Speaker 2: confirm Mark Wayne Mullen to replace Christy Nome at DHS. 6 00:00:28,720 --> 00:00:32,080 Speaker 2: And he had to go through the committee hearings and 7 00:00:32,159 --> 00:00:34,160 Speaker 2: he got through it. He got through it by one vote. 8 00:00:34,159 --> 00:00:37,879 Speaker 2: One Democrat voted for him. Now, normally, if you're appointed 9 00:00:37,920 --> 00:00:39,879 Speaker 2: by Trump, you're going to go through hell in a 10 00:00:40,000 --> 00:00:42,840 Speaker 2: confirmation hearing, and they're not going to confirm you. They're 11 00:00:42,880 --> 00:00:44,920 Speaker 2: going to all hate you just because you're appointed by Trump. 12 00:00:45,000 --> 00:00:47,720 Speaker 2: But the reason they picked Mark Wayne Mullen, he's in 13 00:00:47,760 --> 00:00:50,160 Speaker 2: the Senate for years, he's in the House for years, 14 00:00:50,600 --> 00:00:53,040 Speaker 2: and he was very good at making friends with everybody, 15 00:00:53,080 --> 00:00:57,400 Speaker 2: Republicans and Democrats. He just would have lunch with everybody, 16 00:00:57,440 --> 00:00:59,520 Speaker 2: go to the gym with everybody. So we've got a 17 00:00:59,520 --> 00:01:03,000 Speaker 2: lot of friends there. That made it easier to confirm him. 18 00:01:03,280 --> 00:01:05,720 Speaker 2: But you got to get through the committee first. The 19 00:01:05,720 --> 00:01:08,800 Speaker 2: committee has to approve your nomination, then it goes for 20 00:01:08,840 --> 00:01:12,839 Speaker 2: the full vote. He should be okay in the full vote. 21 00:01:12,840 --> 00:01:15,880 Speaker 2: The committee. The problem was Rand Paul is on the 22 00:01:15,920 --> 00:01:20,920 Speaker 2: committee and they are not friends. Now, Ran Paul, you'll 23 00:01:20,959 --> 00:01:25,640 Speaker 2: recall a couple of years ago, somebody I don't remember 24 00:01:25,640 --> 00:01:28,080 Speaker 2: what the reason was or what happened, but Ran Paul, 25 00:01:29,319 --> 00:01:35,280 Speaker 2: a neighbor comes into his house and punches him. It 26 00:01:35,400 --> 00:01:38,520 Speaker 2: beats him up and breaks his ribs and Ran Paul 27 00:01:38,600 --> 00:01:40,679 Speaker 2: ends up in the hospital. Now, we don't forget what 28 00:01:40,760 --> 00:01:42,720 Speaker 2: the dispute was about. This was a neighbor is in 29 00:01:42,800 --> 00:01:48,920 Speaker 2: Kentucky and at the time, I guess Mark Wayne Mullen listen, 30 00:01:48,960 --> 00:01:50,480 Speaker 2: a lot of people I like Rand Paul, A lot 31 00:01:50,520 --> 00:01:52,800 Speaker 2: of people find him annoying in all kinds of ways. 32 00:01:53,240 --> 00:01:56,880 Speaker 2: But Mark Wayne Mullen when he heard somebody beat up 33 00:01:56,960 --> 00:02:00,720 Speaker 2: Rand Paul today, I can understand it. So and Paul 34 00:02:01,000 --> 00:02:03,960 Speaker 2: not happy about it, and he just glared at Mark 35 00:02:03,960 --> 00:02:06,320 Speaker 2: Wayne Mullin, gave him a hard time in the hearings 36 00:02:06,360 --> 00:02:08,600 Speaker 2: and just couldn't stop attacking him. 37 00:02:08,919 --> 00:02:11,440 Speaker 3: I owned the word apologize. Haven't heard the word regret. 38 00:02:11,639 --> 00:02:14,560 Speaker 4: Haven't heard I misspoke and it was heated, and I 39 00:02:14,639 --> 00:02:17,520 Speaker 4: made a mistake, actually any of those words sorry. 40 00:02:17,520 --> 00:02:20,519 Speaker 5: Actually it wasn't heated. And I'm not apologizing for point, 41 00:02:20,560 --> 00:02:21,680 Speaker 5: not your count or goodn't. 42 00:02:21,760 --> 00:02:24,360 Speaker 3: So you're you're jolly well fine, and you want the 43 00:02:24,360 --> 00:02:26,720 Speaker 3: American public and the people up here to vote that 44 00:02:26,880 --> 00:02:28,720 Speaker 3: may or may not vote for you, to know that 45 00:02:28,760 --> 00:02:32,680 Speaker 3: you supported the felonious violent attack on me from behind. 46 00:02:32,960 --> 00:02:34,600 Speaker 5: I did not say I supported it. 47 00:02:35,000 --> 00:02:36,040 Speaker 6: I said I understood it. 48 00:02:36,520 --> 00:02:39,480 Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean he's not alone. There are people that 49 00:02:39,520 --> 00:02:45,520 Speaker 2: find ran Paul quite annoying, so they Paul was not 50 00:02:45,680 --> 00:02:48,840 Speaker 2: going to be happy with him. But here's more from 51 00:02:48,840 --> 00:02:49,280 Speaker 2: the hearings. 52 00:02:49,320 --> 00:02:53,480 Speaker 5: Sometimes this political theater, sometimes it's true differences. But what 53 00:02:53,520 --> 00:02:56,440 Speaker 5: we do know is that we're playing with fire. We 54 00:02:56,520 --> 00:02:59,440 Speaker 5: have two hundred and eighty thousand Dachs employees right now 55 00:03:00,200 --> 00:03:03,639 Speaker 5: on day thirty, without pay, and they're still showing up 56 00:03:03,760 --> 00:03:06,000 Speaker 5: every single day to do their job. 57 00:03:06,280 --> 00:03:06,520 Speaker 1: Yeah. 58 00:03:06,560 --> 00:03:09,160 Speaker 2: Now, this Department of Homeland Security that also includes the 59 00:03:09,160 --> 00:03:12,560 Speaker 2: Secret Service, that includes TSA, that's how all the airports 60 00:03:12,600 --> 00:03:15,240 Speaker 2: could get screwed up, includes the Coast Guard, but just 61 00:03:15,280 --> 00:03:18,360 Speaker 2: the airports, the TSA. You got to settle this. 62 00:03:18,600 --> 00:03:21,000 Speaker 5: I won't back down from a challenge, and I'll also 63 00:03:21,040 --> 00:03:25,000 Speaker 5: admit when I'm wrong. I'm not perfect. I don't claim 64 00:03:25,040 --> 00:03:28,640 Speaker 5: to be perfect. I make mistakes just like anybody else. 65 00:03:30,160 --> 00:03:32,840 Speaker 5: But mistakes. If you own them, you can learn from 66 00:03:32,919 --> 00:03:34,239 Speaker 5: them and you can move ahead. 67 00:03:35,360 --> 00:03:38,200 Speaker 2: Yeah, but Rand Paul was not going to vote for 68 00:03:38,240 --> 00:03:40,160 Speaker 2: this guy. Rand Paul was just that. You could see 69 00:03:40,160 --> 00:03:42,360 Speaker 2: the steam coming out of his ears as glasses were 70 00:03:42,360 --> 00:03:43,960 Speaker 2: flogging up. He was really mad. 71 00:03:44,040 --> 00:03:46,280 Speaker 4: He told the media that I was a freaking snake 72 00:03:46,960 --> 00:03:49,840 Speaker 4: and that you completely understood why I had been assaulted, 73 00:03:49,840 --> 00:03:54,600 Speaker 4: and I was shocked they would justify and celebrate this 74 00:03:54,640 --> 00:03:58,160 Speaker 4: filing assault that caused me so much pain in my family, 75 00:03:58,240 --> 00:04:02,440 Speaker 4: so much pain. I just wonder if someone who applauds 76 00:04:02,520 --> 00:04:05,560 Speaker 4: violence against their political opponents is the right person to 77 00:04:05,640 --> 00:04:08,320 Speaker 4: lead an agency that has struggled to accept limits to 78 00:04:08,360 --> 00:04:09,360 Speaker 4: the proper use of force. 79 00:04:11,360 --> 00:04:13,720 Speaker 2: I mean, listen, I understand his anger, but get over it. 80 00:04:13,840 --> 00:04:16,720 Speaker 4: It is not a personal disagreement when one of your 81 00:04:16,760 --> 00:04:20,560 Speaker 4: colleagues says that they could completely understand why six of 82 00:04:20,600 --> 00:04:24,320 Speaker 4: your ribs were broken, your lung was damage. I had 83 00:04:24,360 --> 00:04:25,600 Speaker 4: part of my lung removed. 84 00:04:25,600 --> 00:04:26,839 Speaker 1: I had an infection. 85 00:04:26,800 --> 00:04:29,520 Speaker 4: Almost had you know, I had an infection that had 86 00:04:29,520 --> 00:04:32,279 Speaker 4: a twenty five percent death rate. So I mean no, 87 00:04:32,440 --> 00:04:35,000 Speaker 4: I went through hell, and anybody who thinks that that's 88 00:04:35,040 --> 00:04:39,000 Speaker 4: something that's commendable is an unfit person to lead law enforcement. 89 00:04:39,320 --> 00:04:41,599 Speaker 2: All Right, all right, it was a terrible thing. Everybody 90 00:04:41,600 --> 00:04:44,839 Speaker 2: agrees it was a terrible, awful thing. Nobody's for anything 91 00:04:44,880 --> 00:04:47,080 Speaker 2: like that happening to anybody. But I think he was 92 00:04:47,160 --> 00:04:51,520 Speaker 2: kind of making a joke about you know, it's like 93 00:04:51,560 --> 00:04:55,000 Speaker 2: what was with a comedian that somebody was murdered and 94 00:04:55,040 --> 00:04:57,520 Speaker 2: they said, yeah, there's two thousand suspects. There's just I 95 00:04:57,520 --> 00:05:00,400 Speaker 2: mean a lot of people don't like Randpa was joke. 96 00:05:00,480 --> 00:05:02,680 Speaker 2: It was I I can understand him not getting over it. 97 00:05:03,880 --> 00:05:08,320 Speaker 2: You know, if you're President Trump and you got through 98 00:05:08,320 --> 00:05:11,719 Speaker 2: Butler Pennsylvania, you know, when that bullet took part of 99 00:05:11,720 --> 00:05:15,320 Speaker 2: his ear off, he looked pretty brave and he's pumping 100 00:05:15,400 --> 00:05:17,760 Speaker 2: his fist and he was playing golf the next morning. 101 00:05:17,760 --> 00:05:20,760 Speaker 2: He was pretty brave. But you gotta you gotta think 102 00:05:22,279 --> 00:05:26,640 Speaker 2: as brave as he was in front of you, it 103 00:05:26,680 --> 00:05:29,920 Speaker 2: really got to him. You know, you got you think it. Uh. 104 00:05:30,200 --> 00:05:32,080 Speaker 2: There were a lot of nightmares probably after that. 105 00:05:32,160 --> 00:05:32,599 Speaker 1: And then. 106 00:05:34,480 --> 00:05:36,960 Speaker 2: Weeks later there's a guy with a big rifle on 107 00:05:37,000 --> 00:05:39,159 Speaker 2: your golf course trying to shoot you. Luckily, a secret 108 00:05:39,200 --> 00:05:44,719 Speaker 2: service got him. That's two assassination attempts. You gotta think 109 00:05:44,760 --> 00:05:46,840 Speaker 2: that really haunts you. I mean, as tough as you can, 110 00:05:47,120 --> 00:05:48,719 Speaker 2: brave as you can appear to be in front of 111 00:05:48,760 --> 00:05:52,840 Speaker 2: everybody alone when the lights are out and you're thinking 112 00:05:53,040 --> 00:05:55,120 Speaker 2: to yourself, you must really get to you what could 113 00:05:55,120 --> 00:05:59,679 Speaker 2: happen to here? And intelligence reports are showing that Iran 114 00:05:59,800 --> 00:06:03,120 Speaker 2: at she was behind these assassins. I have a feeling 115 00:06:03,120 --> 00:06:05,760 Speaker 2: this will come out at some point soon that Iran 116 00:06:06,000 --> 00:06:08,040 Speaker 2: was behind the assassinations. They said they were going to 117 00:06:08,080 --> 00:06:14,520 Speaker 2: attempt to assassinate Trump, and these two assassins young like 118 00:06:14,600 --> 00:06:18,080 Speaker 2: in eighteen nineteen twenty. They're the only young guys that 119 00:06:18,279 --> 00:06:22,080 Speaker 2: have no social media presence whatsoever of any kind. So 120 00:06:22,120 --> 00:06:24,159 Speaker 2: you got to wonder where the hell they came from. 121 00:06:24,839 --> 00:06:28,400 Speaker 2: But what's going on in Iran right now? You gotta 122 00:06:28,440 --> 00:06:31,279 Speaker 2: think that was a factor. That was a big factor 123 00:06:31,320 --> 00:06:33,680 Speaker 2: because if Iran and they said they were going to 124 00:06:33,680 --> 00:06:37,960 Speaker 2: try to assassinate President Trump, and if Iran launched an 125 00:06:38,000 --> 00:06:42,440 Speaker 2: assassination against the US president, you gotta believe that something 126 00:06:42,520 --> 00:06:45,039 Speaker 2: like that had to get approved at the very top 127 00:06:45,279 --> 00:06:48,320 Speaker 2: by the Ayatola himself, that he would have had to 128 00:06:48,360 --> 00:06:50,600 Speaker 2: give the go ahead, and all the top top top 129 00:06:50,800 --> 00:06:53,560 Speaker 2: two or three, or four Iranian leaders had to sign 130 00:06:53,640 --> 00:06:57,679 Speaker 2: off on it. So you gotta think that's a factor 131 00:06:57,720 --> 00:07:01,200 Speaker 2: in this blowing them up that I mean, they tried 132 00:07:01,240 --> 00:07:03,360 Speaker 2: to kill them and one of their bullets hit them. 133 00:07:03,440 --> 00:07:06,520 Speaker 2: You gotta think this was a big factor in all 134 00:07:06,560 --> 00:07:10,520 Speaker 2: of this. Hey, so crazy, mom, Donnie is the latest thing. Now, 135 00:07:10,560 --> 00:07:14,360 Speaker 2: you know, a big problem in New York. Remember you 136 00:07:14,440 --> 00:07:17,880 Speaker 2: go back ten years or so to Blasio is what 137 00:07:17,960 --> 00:07:20,200 Speaker 2: was he talking about how dangerous the streets were because 138 00:07:20,200 --> 00:07:23,840 Speaker 2: of the cars. You know, people getting hit by cars. 139 00:07:23,920 --> 00:07:28,000 Speaker 2: Remember what was that Operations safety something whatever. They're trying 140 00:07:28,040 --> 00:07:31,160 Speaker 2: to cut down on accident's cars hitting people. They made 141 00:07:31,200 --> 00:07:33,120 Speaker 2: a big, big deal out of this. This is years ago, 142 00:07:34,160 --> 00:07:37,600 Speaker 2: well over the last ten years. Cars are the least 143 00:07:37,640 --> 00:07:40,400 Speaker 2: you are worries. It's these e bikes, these e st scooters, 144 00:07:40,800 --> 00:07:45,559 Speaker 2: these e things, these delivery guys just going every which 145 00:07:45,600 --> 00:07:48,320 Speaker 2: way and they don't seem to know anything about traffic 146 00:07:48,400 --> 00:07:51,040 Speaker 2: lights or they can't tell what's the sidewalk, what's the street. 147 00:07:51,080 --> 00:07:54,360 Speaker 2: They're riding all over the place. In fact, the cars 148 00:07:54,360 --> 00:07:57,600 Speaker 2: are no problem at all, but most people terrified across 149 00:07:57,640 --> 00:07:59,720 Speaker 2: the street because of these e bikes. It's a big problem. 150 00:08:00,120 --> 00:08:02,840 Speaker 2: So they started to crack down during the Adams years, 151 00:08:03,320 --> 00:08:06,200 Speaker 2: they started to give these guys tickets. Not enough they 152 00:08:06,240 --> 00:08:10,960 Speaker 2: should you know, they're always looking for more revenue. Just 153 00:08:10,960 --> 00:08:13,720 Speaker 2: go after these e bikes. Just ticket them every time 154 00:08:13,760 --> 00:08:15,240 Speaker 2: they go through a red light, every time they're on 155 00:08:15,280 --> 00:08:18,480 Speaker 2: the sidewalk, every time they're going too fast. Just ticket 156 00:08:18,520 --> 00:08:23,640 Speaker 2: them and believe or not a e bike ticket was criminal. Well, mom, 157 00:08:23,680 --> 00:08:26,960 Speaker 2: Donnie just changed all of that. It's now no longer criminal. 158 00:08:27,000 --> 00:08:30,760 Speaker 2: It's now civil. Now you might say, well, okay for 159 00:08:30,800 --> 00:08:33,920 Speaker 2: a traffic thing, that should be so now, brum is 160 00:08:33,960 --> 00:08:38,000 Speaker 2: a lot of these e bike riders are not really citizens. 161 00:08:38,360 --> 00:08:41,040 Speaker 2: Nobody can really find them. And if you just give 162 00:08:41,080 --> 00:08:43,800 Speaker 2: them civil means they just get a ticket, and if 163 00:08:43,800 --> 00:08:45,920 Speaker 2: they don't answer it, nobody can do much of anything 164 00:08:45,960 --> 00:08:48,320 Speaker 2: to them. They're kind of off the books. There's no 165 00:08:48,360 --> 00:08:50,800 Speaker 2: way to touch them. Criminal means you I got to 166 00:08:50,840 --> 00:08:53,920 Speaker 2: go to court, You've got to appear in court and 167 00:08:54,000 --> 00:08:57,480 Speaker 2: answer the thing. So by dropping the criminal part of it, 168 00:08:57,520 --> 00:08:59,439 Speaker 2: now it's only civil. If they can get all the 169 00:08:59,440 --> 00:09:01,320 Speaker 2: tickets in the world, they can just throw them away, don't 170 00:09:01,320 --> 00:09:02,960 Speaker 2: have to do a thing about it, and really nothing 171 00:09:03,000 --> 00:09:06,400 Speaker 2: can happen to him if it had remained criminal as 172 00:09:06,440 --> 00:09:08,440 Speaker 2: it was, they would have to show up in court. 173 00:09:08,440 --> 00:09:11,640 Speaker 2: If they didn't, they could be arrested. So it's another 174 00:09:11,880 --> 00:09:17,800 Speaker 2: awful crazy thing from mom Donnie. He I mean, the 175 00:09:17,920 --> 00:09:20,520 Speaker 2: good news is everybody thought he'd just destroyed the whole city. 176 00:09:21,000 --> 00:09:23,600 Speaker 2: He's doing it like little nickel and dimes stuff here 177 00:09:23,600 --> 00:09:27,400 Speaker 2: and there. It could be worse, It could be worse. 178 00:09:27,440 --> 00:09:27,560 Speaker 1: Now. 179 00:09:27,840 --> 00:09:32,880 Speaker 2: Police Commissioner Tish was all for criminal tickets of these 180 00:09:32,880 --> 00:09:35,120 Speaker 2: e bikes. In fact, remember last year she wrote a 181 00:09:35,120 --> 00:09:37,240 Speaker 2: big op ed in the Post and support of it. 182 00:09:37,720 --> 00:09:42,000 Speaker 2: She and Adams were behind this big blitz. This is 183 00:09:42,000 --> 00:09:45,079 Speaker 2: her editorial she wrote back then. When vehicle drivers failed 184 00:09:45,080 --> 00:09:48,880 Speaker 2: to respond to a traffic summons, their license can be suspended. 185 00:09:49,240 --> 00:09:52,360 Speaker 2: E bikes do not require any license, so their operators 186 00:09:52,400 --> 00:09:56,600 Speaker 2: can simply ignore a traffic summons with virtually no repercussions. 187 00:09:56,760 --> 00:09:59,760 Speaker 2: Now that's the other thing. If he's really concerned about 188 00:09:59,760 --> 00:10:02,640 Speaker 2: rep and you make every e bike, every e scooter, 189 00:10:02,800 --> 00:10:07,240 Speaker 2: every e everything have to have a license, put a 190 00:10:07,320 --> 00:10:10,480 Speaker 2: license on it. You charge money for the license, a 191 00:10:10,600 --> 00:10:12,440 Speaker 2: yearly fee. You know, just like you're driving. You know 192 00:10:12,480 --> 00:10:14,520 Speaker 2: your license in your car. You pay every year for that. 193 00:10:15,280 --> 00:10:17,720 Speaker 2: So every e bike and scooter has to have a 194 00:10:17,800 --> 00:10:21,720 Speaker 2: license charge whatever one hundred and fifty a year. Also, 195 00:10:21,840 --> 00:10:24,880 Speaker 2: that way, when they get a ticket, you can trace 196 00:10:25,080 --> 00:10:28,000 Speaker 2: trace them down. Also, if there's a horrible hit and 197 00:10:28,080 --> 00:10:30,000 Speaker 2: run by one of those e bikes, you could go 198 00:10:30,040 --> 00:10:33,240 Speaker 2: to the surveillance video, which if you do it, now, 199 00:10:34,360 --> 00:10:36,040 Speaker 2: what are you going to find? Nothing? You just see 200 00:10:36,040 --> 00:10:37,560 Speaker 2: a bike and you see a guy with a helmet on. 201 00:10:37,800 --> 00:10:40,439 Speaker 2: Can't really identify him. But if there was a visible 202 00:10:40,480 --> 00:10:42,960 Speaker 2: license on the back of that bike, then you could 203 00:10:43,080 --> 00:10:47,160 Speaker 2: then you could identify him. So but apparently with mom Donnie, 204 00:10:47,520 --> 00:10:49,280 Speaker 2: you're not going to get that. You're not going to 205 00:10:49,360 --> 00:10:51,880 Speaker 2: get that. Hey, how bad is the crime in New York? Now, 206 00:10:52,200 --> 00:10:54,360 Speaker 2: I'm talking to all you people way out there in 207 00:10:54,400 --> 00:10:56,440 Speaker 2: the suburbs or and weve got listeners all over the 208 00:10:56,440 --> 00:10:59,600 Speaker 2: country and other cities. Sometimes you talk to them and 209 00:10:59,640 --> 00:11:01,400 Speaker 2: they'll get though. I would never go to New It's 210 00:11:01,400 --> 00:11:04,240 Speaker 2: so dangerous, right, I watched the news. It's a shooting, 211 00:11:04,280 --> 00:11:07,880 Speaker 2: is stabbing. It's so dangerous, And it's not dangerous. Uh, 212 00:11:08,000 --> 00:11:10,480 Speaker 2: in the middle of Manhattan, it's not dangerous. Would you 213 00:11:10,559 --> 00:11:13,199 Speaker 2: guys in the control room agree, it's not right here? 214 00:11:13,600 --> 00:11:15,720 Speaker 2: We're in the middle of mid town Manhattan. If you 215 00:11:16,760 --> 00:11:20,240 Speaker 2: haven't been to New York since the Giuliani days and 216 00:11:20,360 --> 00:11:22,800 Speaker 2: you suddenly flew here and walked around right out there 217 00:11:22,840 --> 00:11:27,280 Speaker 2: by Rockefeller Center and down there, it's fine. It's just fine. 218 00:11:27,320 --> 00:11:30,600 Speaker 2: Everything looks it looks exactly the same. So when you're 219 00:11:30,640 --> 00:11:33,440 Speaker 2: seeing all this crime and there's some people getting pushed 220 00:11:33,480 --> 00:11:35,880 Speaker 2: and shoved in the subway and stabbing and shooting, it's 221 00:11:37,480 --> 00:11:40,640 Speaker 2: unfortunately it's all like an eight precincts. There are areas 222 00:11:40,640 --> 00:11:45,360 Speaker 2: that still remain dangerous. In the Bronx, there's certain you know, 223 00:11:45,559 --> 00:11:47,560 Speaker 2: I think parts of Queen's, parts of Brooklyn, there's still 224 00:11:47,600 --> 00:11:50,439 Speaker 2: some dangerous areas. But the middle of Manhattan it's just 225 00:11:50,480 --> 00:11:54,040 Speaker 2: as safe as ever. It's really fine. But in the 226 00:11:54,040 --> 00:11:56,720 Speaker 2: Bronx they got the police Commissioner Tish on the stand 227 00:11:57,600 --> 00:11:59,720 Speaker 2: and but they got a right to complain. But it's 228 00:11:59,760 --> 00:12:01,760 Speaker 2: not her fault. When you got a shortage of cops. 229 00:12:01,880 --> 00:12:04,000 Speaker 2: It's supposed to have forty thousand, we got like thirty 230 00:12:04,000 --> 00:12:08,920 Speaker 2: four thousand. You got a skimp in some places. And 231 00:12:08,960 --> 00:12:11,480 Speaker 2: it's not about discrimination, but obviously you got to protect 232 00:12:11,520 --> 00:12:13,360 Speaker 2: your business district. You're a and this is where all 233 00:12:13,400 --> 00:12:16,240 Speaker 2: the revenue of man at and happens. It's where everybody works. 234 00:12:16,800 --> 00:12:18,600 Speaker 2: But she was on the hot seat yesterday. 235 00:12:18,679 --> 00:12:20,600 Speaker 7: Shootings are down city wide, and the Bronx they are 236 00:12:20,679 --> 00:12:22,320 Speaker 7: up thirty five points. 237 00:12:22,400 --> 00:12:23,559 Speaker 3: I understand that in nice middle. 238 00:12:24,160 --> 00:12:25,960 Speaker 7: So it's safe to say that the progress for data 239 00:12:26,000 --> 00:12:27,960 Speaker 7: to shooting hasn't reached the Bronx. 240 00:12:28,440 --> 00:12:32,000 Speaker 1: Last year there were over one hundred viewer people shot 241 00:12:32,280 --> 00:12:35,480 Speaker 1: in the burrow of the Bronx then the previous year. 242 00:12:35,679 --> 00:12:37,960 Speaker 7: We've made progress last year, but it seems like we're 243 00:12:38,160 --> 00:12:41,040 Speaker 7: going backward. The numbers were dated to shooting victims and 244 00:12:41,040 --> 00:12:43,800 Speaker 7: shooting incidents and murder going up this year compared to 245 00:12:43,840 --> 00:12:47,800 Speaker 7: last year. That last those numbers that we cannot ignore 246 00:12:47,960 --> 00:12:49,920 Speaker 7: a record breaking s for gun violence. 247 00:12:49,920 --> 00:12:54,080 Speaker 8: And I will not have the work of the members 248 00:12:54,080 --> 00:12:56,720 Speaker 8: of the New York City Police Department mischaracterized. 249 00:12:57,840 --> 00:12:59,959 Speaker 2: Again, it's not her fault. There's a shortage of cops 250 00:13:00,880 --> 00:13:03,079 Speaker 2: and Mom, Donnie's going to keep that shortage going. We 251 00:13:03,160 --> 00:13:06,360 Speaker 2: need about forty thousand. I think we're a thirty four thousand, 252 00:13:06,679 --> 00:13:08,839 Speaker 2: and he's not going to hire a new Now. The 253 00:13:08,960 --> 00:13:11,240 Speaker 2: other thing, when you don't hire new cops, got number 254 00:13:11,240 --> 00:13:13,880 Speaker 2: of shrinks because we lose about three thousand a year 255 00:13:14,200 --> 00:13:17,080 Speaker 2: just through retirement attrition. That's why you got to keep 256 00:13:17,120 --> 00:13:19,880 Speaker 2: adding cops. And we're not doing it at a fast 257 00:13:19,960 --> 00:13:23,800 Speaker 2: enough pace. Hey, you know, there's a big problem going 258 00:13:23,800 --> 00:13:26,400 Speaker 2: on in the restaurant, the bar world, the nightclub world. 259 00:13:27,440 --> 00:13:30,719 Speaker 2: People don't drink as much as they used to. Can 260 00:13:30,760 --> 00:13:36,800 Speaker 2: you believe this? Yeah, restaurants are struggling. Americans are drinking less. 261 00:13:38,000 --> 00:13:40,800 Speaker 2: A lot of Americans just started drinking a lot less. 262 00:13:40,840 --> 00:13:43,760 Speaker 2: And the problem is younger generations, you know, under thirty five, 263 00:13:44,200 --> 00:13:47,120 Speaker 2: they're really not interested in alcohol. They don't drink much. 264 00:13:47,160 --> 00:13:50,199 Speaker 2: They can't stand wine, they don't drink it. You know, 265 00:13:50,320 --> 00:13:52,800 Speaker 2: a lot of the top vineyards in America, a couple 266 00:13:52,840 --> 00:13:55,800 Speaker 2: of them have had to close because business is down. 267 00:13:55,840 --> 00:13:58,480 Speaker 2: But it's really affecting restaurants because that was a big 268 00:13:58,520 --> 00:14:01,439 Speaker 2: part of their revenue. In fact, in a restaurant, your 269 00:14:01,520 --> 00:14:04,680 Speaker 2: food alcohol, it was about a fifty to fifty split 270 00:14:04,760 --> 00:14:10,160 Speaker 2: in revenue. But now it's different. Seventy percent is coming 271 00:14:10,200 --> 00:14:14,560 Speaker 2: from food, only thirty percent from alcohol. A new Gallop 272 00:14:14,600 --> 00:14:17,480 Speaker 2: pole finds that in the US, how many adults drink 273 00:14:18,000 --> 00:14:21,320 Speaker 2: fifty four percent that's a very low number, Only fifty 274 00:14:21,400 --> 00:14:26,240 Speaker 2: four percent so it's hurting restaurants. Also, it's killing happy hour. 275 00:14:26,280 --> 00:14:29,400 Speaker 2: There's not as big a happy hour crowd anymore Friday 276 00:14:29,480 --> 00:14:31,960 Speaker 2: nights and whatever. The big bar seed and that's kind 277 00:14:31,960 --> 00:14:32,400 Speaker 2: of empty. 278 00:14:32,440 --> 00:14:32,600 Speaker 9: Now. 279 00:14:32,640 --> 00:14:37,520 Speaker 2: People aren't drinking. The reasons well, increased awareness of health risks, 280 00:14:38,560 --> 00:14:42,400 Speaker 2: a generational shift. Younger people just aren't drinking. They aren't interested. 281 00:14:43,120 --> 00:14:47,320 Speaker 2: And about six percent of America now uses those injections, 282 00:14:47,320 --> 00:14:50,560 Speaker 2: those those zempic type things, and apparently with that you 283 00:14:50,720 --> 00:14:54,000 Speaker 2: drink a lot less, not just eat less, drink less. 284 00:14:54,520 --> 00:14:58,400 Speaker 2: Alcohol sales are slumping in every category the restaurant industry 285 00:14:59,080 --> 00:15:05,600 Speaker 2: Casual find thirty one percent of operations reporting severe declines 286 00:15:06,200 --> 00:15:09,880 Speaker 2: in alcohol sales in twenty twenty six. I don't know 287 00:15:09,960 --> 00:15:12,760 Speaker 2: what's in the liquor stores. You can imagine the problems 288 00:15:12,760 --> 00:15:15,520 Speaker 2: they're having. Anyway, we'll take some calls next. Eight hundred 289 00:15:15,840 --> 00:15:18,720 Speaker 2: three to two one zero seven ten is the number. 290 00:15:19,040 --> 00:15:22,680 Speaker 2: Eight hundred three to two one zero seven ten. 291 00:15:24,000 --> 00:15:26,720 Speaker 1: Get hits and access to Mark by setting a pre 292 00:15:26,840 --> 00:15:29,800 Speaker 1: set in the iHeartRadio app for his live show. 293 00:15:29,640 --> 00:15:30,720 Speaker 9: And his podcast. 294 00:15:31,400 --> 00:15:35,600 Speaker 1: Now back to the month simone show on wr. 295 00:15:37,600 --> 00:15:37,840 Speaker 6: Hey. 296 00:15:37,880 --> 00:15:41,080 Speaker 2: We'll take some calls eight hundred three two one zero 297 00:15:41,200 --> 00:15:43,360 Speaker 2: seven ten is the number. Let's go to Dante in 298 00:15:43,400 --> 00:15:45,080 Speaker 2: New Jersey. Dante, how you doing. 299 00:15:45,840 --> 00:15:49,160 Speaker 8: I'm doing all right. I got a question maybe somebody 300 00:15:49,160 --> 00:15:53,480 Speaker 8: can answer. These oil producers in America. I think they're 301 00:15:53,800 --> 00:15:56,760 Speaker 8: they're ripping us off because they're not paying one dime 302 00:15:57,160 --> 00:15:59,640 Speaker 8: more to produce the oil in this country than they 303 00:15:59,640 --> 00:16:03,360 Speaker 8: were three weeks ago. And we produced more oil than 304 00:16:03,400 --> 00:16:05,640 Speaker 8: anybody else in the world, and some of the oil 305 00:16:05,640 --> 00:16:08,600 Speaker 8: comes off of our own sedral land, which belongs to us. 306 00:16:08,840 --> 00:16:11,040 Speaker 2: Yeah, sometimes it's the oil companies. More often it's the 307 00:16:11,280 --> 00:16:14,840 Speaker 2: government's the local state governments. You know, gas when it 308 00:16:14,920 --> 00:16:18,760 Speaker 2: was two dollars and thirty cents everywhere in America. Still 309 00:16:18,800 --> 00:16:21,880 Speaker 2: six dollars in California, Still four dollars in parts of 310 00:16:21,920 --> 00:16:25,040 Speaker 2: New York. That's because the governments just tax it to death, 311 00:16:25,800 --> 00:16:29,040 Speaker 2: tax it to death. You know, when you go to 312 00:16:29,080 --> 00:16:31,960 Speaker 2: the pump and it's the let's say four dollars, about 313 00:16:32,080 --> 00:16:33,880 Speaker 2: twelve cents of that goes to the oil company. The 314 00:16:33,920 --> 00:16:37,440 Speaker 2: rest is all taxes and fees. Let's go to Joe 315 00:16:37,480 --> 00:16:39,680 Speaker 2: in Mattawan, New Jersey. Joe, how you doing. 316 00:16:41,080 --> 00:16:43,720 Speaker 6: I'm well, Thank you, Mark. I enjoyed your piece. Just 317 00:16:43,760 --> 00:16:47,800 Speaker 6: before the break on alcohol consumption of the demographic group 318 00:16:47,800 --> 00:16:51,120 Speaker 6: below thirty five. My question to you is, if they're 319 00:16:51,160 --> 00:16:53,600 Speaker 6: not drinking and going to happy hours, what are they 320 00:16:53,680 --> 00:16:54,920 Speaker 6: doing with that time? 321 00:16:55,160 --> 00:16:57,760 Speaker 2: They're staying home, they're looking at their phone, they're meeting 322 00:16:57,760 --> 00:16:59,720 Speaker 2: each other online. They don't need to go to a 323 00:16:59,760 --> 00:17:01,720 Speaker 2: happy hour. They don't need to go to a bar. 324 00:17:02,480 --> 00:17:02,600 Speaker 1: Uh. 325 00:17:03,400 --> 00:17:07,440 Speaker 2: It's kind of sad. I mean everything's moving to online 326 00:17:07,480 --> 00:17:08,520 Speaker 2: and not in person. 327 00:17:09,560 --> 00:17:11,320 Speaker 1: But okay, thank you, Mark. 328 00:17:11,400 --> 00:17:13,760 Speaker 2: Yeah. Now, if you're in the middle of Manhattan and 329 00:17:13,800 --> 00:17:15,879 Speaker 2: you go to you'll see a big bar crowd in 330 00:17:15,920 --> 00:17:18,000 Speaker 2: the middle of Manhattan. But that's Manhattan, although not as 331 00:17:18,000 --> 00:17:19,879 Speaker 2: big as it used to be. But if you're out 332 00:17:19,840 --> 00:17:21,840 Speaker 2: in the suburbs or in other places, you really don't 333 00:17:21,840 --> 00:17:25,000 Speaker 2: see the happy hour crowd is a lot, a lot 334 00:17:25,040 --> 00:17:27,480 Speaker 2: smaller than it used to be. Let's go to Vincent 335 00:17:27,520 --> 00:17:29,920 Speaker 2: and Brooklyn. Vincent. How you doing, Good. 336 00:17:29,680 --> 00:17:32,439 Speaker 9: Morning, Mark, Mark. I'm okay. I believe part of the 337 00:17:32,480 --> 00:17:37,000 Speaker 9: problem with the repeat crime in the Bronx is the 338 00:17:37,080 --> 00:17:40,800 Speaker 9: fact that you have these You have a whacked out 339 00:17:41,280 --> 00:17:44,879 Speaker 9: liberal district attorney up there, and also a lot of 340 00:17:44,880 --> 00:17:49,280 Speaker 9: the judges. There's one judge in particular she's like Bruce 341 00:17:49,359 --> 00:17:53,639 Speaker 9: Wright of the seventies and eighties. That was in Tom 342 00:17:53,680 --> 00:17:54,359 Speaker 9: Wolf's book. 343 00:17:54,440 --> 00:17:56,320 Speaker 2: Yeah, turn theruce. 344 00:17:58,359 --> 00:18:03,960 Speaker 9: Exactly exactly. Mark this law that Mondomi wants to pass 345 00:18:04,000 --> 00:18:09,159 Speaker 9: about lowering the threshold of having with the inheritance tax, 346 00:18:09,520 --> 00:18:12,000 Speaker 9: that's a real can of worms if you really look 347 00:18:12,080 --> 00:18:15,800 Speaker 9: into it. Because let's say a person owns a business 348 00:18:15,880 --> 00:18:20,159 Speaker 9: and it's it's not traded publicly. Let's say a person 349 00:18:20,160 --> 00:18:25,359 Speaker 9: who has a real Tony car dealership that could easily 350 00:18:25,440 --> 00:18:29,000 Speaker 9: be worth over a million dollars. First, even a small 351 00:18:29,080 --> 00:18:32,520 Speaker 9: business to be worth over a million dollars these days 352 00:18:32,760 --> 00:18:36,560 Speaker 9: isn't very hard, especially if it's a small building attached 353 00:18:36,600 --> 00:18:40,480 Speaker 9: with the business. And if this person wants to pass 354 00:18:40,520 --> 00:18:44,280 Speaker 9: that on to his kids, his grandkids, whoever. A friend, 355 00:18:44,880 --> 00:18:48,840 Speaker 9: if these people don't come up with the inheritance tax 356 00:18:48,920 --> 00:18:52,800 Speaker 9: on that, the city could confiscate the property and everything. 357 00:18:52,920 --> 00:18:55,040 Speaker 2: Yeah, I think that's the idea. I think that's what's up. 358 00:18:55,240 --> 00:18:57,480 Speaker 9: That's what he said, because he wants inheritance. 359 00:18:57,080 --> 00:18:59,199 Speaker 2: Tax doesn't kick in till seven million. He wants to 360 00:18:59,200 --> 00:19:02,159 Speaker 2: make it seven hundred fifty thousand, which means for most people, 361 00:19:02,840 --> 00:19:05,199 Speaker 2: if they die, the house the kids will need to 362 00:19:05,240 --> 00:19:07,560 Speaker 2: sell it to pay the inheritance tax and they. 363 00:19:07,240 --> 00:19:11,119 Speaker 9: And that's going to really really hurt the black and 364 00:19:11,440 --> 00:19:15,400 Speaker 9: Hispanic middle class and even the white middle class because 365 00:19:16,080 --> 00:19:19,920 Speaker 9: that's into generational wealth. These people worked all their lives 366 00:19:19,960 --> 00:19:23,879 Speaker 9: to finally pay off this house and they want to 367 00:19:23,920 --> 00:19:27,000 Speaker 9: pass it on to their kids or their grandkids. And 368 00:19:27,080 --> 00:19:31,240 Speaker 9: he's not even saying per individual, who's in the will, 369 00:19:31,280 --> 00:19:34,120 Speaker 9: wo who's going to inherit this? This is the total 370 00:19:34,240 --> 00:19:38,040 Speaker 9: value of the estate that's nothing these days, seven hundred 371 00:19:38,080 --> 00:19:43,199 Speaker 9: and fifty thousand dollars. So what about a company like 372 00:19:43,560 --> 00:19:47,159 Speaker 9: the Trump Corporation. Now I don't know if it's publicly traded, 373 00:19:47,200 --> 00:19:49,760 Speaker 9: but I'm just using that as an example. What is 374 00:19:49,760 --> 00:19:54,679 Speaker 9: he going to come and confiscate big companies and everything 375 00:19:54,720 --> 00:19:56,480 Speaker 9: that are still helped privately. 376 00:19:56,640 --> 00:19:59,960 Speaker 2: No, it's ridiculous, Vincent, great call, Thanks for calling. Yeah, real, 377 00:20:00,000 --> 00:20:03,080 Speaker 2: the problem is in New York City and he's talking 378 00:20:03,080 --> 00:20:06,840 Speaker 2: about fifty percent tax if you die. Let's say it's 379 00:20:06,840 --> 00:20:08,840 Speaker 2: a seven hundred thousand dollars house, the taxi be three 380 00:20:08,920 --> 00:20:11,800 Speaker 2: hundred and fifty thousand. Many many cases, they wouldn't be 381 00:20:11,840 --> 00:20:13,399 Speaker 2: able to pass the house along to their kids. The 382 00:20:13,480 --> 00:20:17,560 Speaker 2: kids would have to sell it to pay the inheritance tax. 383 00:20:17,640 --> 00:20:21,000 Speaker 2: And first of all, the argument against inheritance tax, this 384 00:20:21,119 --> 00:20:24,280 Speaker 2: money's already been taxed. When the person earned it, they 385 00:20:24,280 --> 00:20:28,600 Speaker 2: paid tax on it. It's already taxed. The money. Once 386 00:20:28,640 --> 00:20:30,560 Speaker 2: you pay all the tax and it's yours, it shouldn't 387 00:20:30,600 --> 00:20:34,520 Speaker 2: be taxed again. Anyway. It's a crazy, crazy, ridiculous mom 388 00:20:34,600 --> 00:20:37,800 Speaker 2: Donnie proposal.

You know what, 468 00:24:29,400 --> 00:24:33,040 Speaker 1: you know, I don't delight in this obviously, you know, 469 00:24:33,119 --> 00:24:35,199 Speaker 1: we know that a lot of the problem is obviously 470 00:24:35,240 --> 00:24:38,160 Speaker 1: got a little political. They alienated a lot of the audience. 471 00:24:38,840 --> 00:24:41,399 Speaker 1: But I feel like they're blowing such a good thing. 472 00:24:41,720 --> 00:24:45,760 Speaker 1: I mean, Hollywood and it's Heyday at the peak. You know, 473 00:24:46,000 --> 00:24:49,080 Speaker 1: they were stars, and they leaned into being stars. They 474 00:24:49,080 --> 00:24:52,840 Speaker 1: didn't try to, you know, act aggrieved and complain, because 475 00:24:52,840 --> 00:24:55,800 Speaker 1: nobody wants to hear the luckiest people in the world complain. 476 00:24:56,119 --> 00:24:58,520 Speaker 1: You know, that's the r if you're in Hollywood, right, 477 00:24:58,960 --> 00:25:01,840 Speaker 1: you pretend to be a fireman and make twenty million 478 00:25:01,920 --> 00:25:04,920 Speaker 1: dollars in a movie, like you don't have real problems 479 00:25:04,920 --> 00:25:07,400 Speaker 1: compared to an actual fireman or a cop or anybody 480 00:25:07,400 --> 00:25:09,399 Speaker 1: out there in the real world. And that's what I 481 00:25:09,440 --> 00:25:11,879 Speaker 1: think they did wrong, is they started to embrace this 482 00:25:12,040 --> 00:25:15,760 Speaker 1: notion that victimhood was currency. So instead of getting out 483 00:25:15,800 --> 00:25:18,480 Speaker 1: there and being like, hey, we hit the genetic lottery, 484 00:25:18,520 --> 00:25:21,680 Speaker 1: we're gorgeous. We're here wearing dresses that cost more than 485 00:25:21,680 --> 00:25:25,040 Speaker 1: your house. This is a fantasy life. Now they're trying 486 00:25:25,080 --> 00:25:28,359 Speaker 1: to be like culture Warriors, and nobody wants it, you know. 487 00:25:28,880 --> 00:25:30,960 Speaker 1: And it's not even like if they were Republican, we 488 00:25:31,000 --> 00:25:33,320 Speaker 1: wouldn't want it either. We just we don't want anything. 489 00:25:33,480 --> 00:25:34,800 Speaker 6: Just stick to doing if. 490 00:25:34,720 --> 00:25:37,560 Speaker 1: You're Hollywood for real, stick to doing what you do best, 491 00:25:37,640 --> 00:25:39,320 Speaker 1: which is cocaine. 492 00:25:40,600 --> 00:25:42,520 Speaker 2: And what happened to Jimmy Kimmel. He used to be 493 00:25:42,800 --> 00:25:45,600 Speaker 2: many years ago, a Jimmy fail a type of a 494 00:25:45,640 --> 00:25:48,040 Speaker 2: fun guy. Now he comes out he just looks angry 495 00:25:48,080 --> 00:25:50,720 Speaker 2: and bitter and mean. And what happens. 496 00:25:52,080 --> 00:25:54,080 Speaker 1: I know, I loved it the Oscars when he goes 497 00:25:54,200 --> 00:25:57,280 Speaker 1: America doesn't have free speech. I'm like, you're saying that 498 00:25:57,359 --> 00:26:01,200 Speaker 1: in America freely, you're not going to jail, you know 499 00:26:01,440 --> 00:26:04,600 Speaker 1: that any kind of trouble. You know, he's definitely a guy 500 00:26:04,640 --> 00:26:07,800 Speaker 1: who got bit by that radioactive spider, you know, that 501 00:26:07,840 --> 00:26:10,200 Speaker 1: anti Trump thing a lot of people have on the left. 502 00:26:10,880 --> 00:26:13,160 Speaker 1: And I think he has a second issue though. When 503 00:26:13,200 --> 00:26:15,520 Speaker 1: he was on The Man Show, which was a good funny, 504 00:26:16,040 --> 00:26:18,840 Speaker 1: you know, a reverend show, and it was very sophomoric 505 00:26:18,920 --> 00:26:21,280 Speaker 1: and stupid, but it was funny, okay. But he got 506 00:26:21,320 --> 00:26:23,320 Speaker 1: into the habit of wearing black faced a lot on 507 00:26:23,320 --> 00:26:27,760 Speaker 1: that show. Which makes him very cancellable to the modern left. 508 00:26:27,920 --> 00:26:31,000 Speaker 1: And I think like Sarah Silverman before him, because he's 509 00:26:31,040 --> 00:26:35,119 Speaker 1: good friends with Sarah Silverman. Obviously they both right around 510 00:26:35,200 --> 00:26:40,000 Speaker 1: like twenty fourteen twenty fifteen, when they were retroactively firing 511 00:26:40,040 --> 00:26:44,720 Speaker 1: comics for old jokes. They both suddenly became like militant liberals. 512 00:26:44,920 --> 00:26:48,000 Speaker 1: So it's almost like a protection racket, Like they're literally 513 00:26:48,040 --> 00:26:51,479 Speaker 1: like making amends with the outrage mom, like, hey, we'll 514 00:26:51,560 --> 00:26:54,000 Speaker 1: just attack Trump every time someone hands as the microphone 515 00:26:54,280 --> 00:26:56,359 Speaker 1: as long as you don't cancel me for dressing up 516 00:26:56,359 --> 00:26:57,080 Speaker 1: as Karl alone. 517 00:26:57,200 --> 00:27:03,479 Speaker 2: And that's that's pretty theory there. That's a yeah. So 518 00:27:04,560 --> 00:27:06,720 Speaker 2: are you guys at Fox, are you very worried about 519 00:27:07,080 --> 00:27:10,160 Speaker 2: MSNBC with the big new lineup they're unveiling. 520 00:27:11,600 --> 00:27:13,840 Speaker 1: You know what's funny about since she said that, the 521 00:27:13,920 --> 00:27:16,240 Speaker 1: fact that they're cutting Joe and Mika back by an hour. 522 00:27:16,600 --> 00:27:19,400 Speaker 1: That was not the network's choice. That was a marriage 523 00:27:19,440 --> 00:27:24,520 Speaker 1: counselor's choice. Okay, those two people hate each other. Everyone 524 00:27:24,600 --> 00:27:27,119 Speaker 1: listening to this interview has had a couple over for dinner, 525 00:27:27,560 --> 00:27:29,480 Speaker 1: and when you answered your front door, you could tell 526 00:27:29,520 --> 00:27:31,600 Speaker 1: the couple had been screaming at each other in the 527 00:27:31,640 --> 00:27:34,520 Speaker 1: car the whole way there. That is every time I 528 00:27:34,560 --> 00:27:37,200 Speaker 1: have ever met Joe and Mika at like a media event, 529 00:27:37,600 --> 00:27:40,959 Speaker 1: they have that energy, Like these two people were just 530 00:27:41,160 --> 00:27:44,240 Speaker 1: screaming a minute ago. And so I think for them, 531 00:27:44,320 --> 00:27:46,639 Speaker 1: less is more, And I obviously, you know, as far 532 00:27:46,640 --> 00:27:48,520 Speaker 1: as the ratings go, less is a lot more. So 533 00:27:48,640 --> 00:27:49,120 Speaker 1: good move. 534 00:27:49,520 --> 00:27:53,000 Speaker 2: Yeah, well, I haven't been around them. I think that's 535 00:27:53,040 --> 00:27:56,119 Speaker 2: their thing. They like being angry. They're always angry, by 536 00:27:56,160 --> 00:27:57,439 Speaker 2: the way, they always saw. 537 00:27:58,960 --> 00:28:01,720 Speaker 1: Don't ever forget. They called Trump Hitler for ten years 538 00:28:02,119 --> 00:28:04,680 Speaker 1: and then when Trump won reelection, they knocked on Hitler's 539 00:28:04,680 --> 00:28:07,760 Speaker 1: door and asked to be friends. Is there anything funnier? 540 00:28:08,200 --> 00:28:08,399 Speaker 9: You know? 541 00:28:08,440 --> 00:28:10,680 Speaker 1: There's no shame left in the media. It's like, remember 542 00:28:10,720 --> 00:28:14,400 Speaker 1: this mark, how much time did we spend about the Democrats? 543 00:28:14,400 --> 00:28:16,600 Speaker 1: And Michelle Obama was the most recent one to do it, 544 00:28:16,760 --> 00:28:20,080 Speaker 1: to say, oh, America is too misogynistic for a female president. 545 00:28:20,160 --> 00:28:23,080 Speaker 1: I'm not gonna run. And now they're literally telling us 546 00:28:23,119 --> 00:28:25,439 Speaker 1: we can have voter ID because women are too stupid 547 00:28:25,520 --> 00:28:29,400 Speaker 1: to figure it out. I'm like, pick a lane. 548 00:28:30,560 --> 00:28:33,120 Speaker 2: Yeah, speaking of first ladies, Jill Biden's got a book 549 00:28:33,160 --> 00:28:34,919 Speaker 2: coming out. Will you be reading that. 550 00:28:36,440 --> 00:28:40,880 Speaker 1: Yeah, the Idiot's Guide to Elder Abuse. It's in the 551 00:28:40,920 --> 00:28:45,000 Speaker 1: self help section. It's in the self You got a 552 00:28:45,040 --> 00:28:47,800 Speaker 1: lot of choices this year. Okay, you got the Jill thing, 553 00:28:48,320 --> 00:28:50,440 Speaker 1: and then you've got those historic Joe's got a book 554 00:28:50,440 --> 00:28:54,040 Speaker 1: coming out written entirely in auto pen And you know, 555 00:28:54,440 --> 00:28:57,320 Speaker 1: as I've been telling you, everybody at Fox trashes the 556 00:28:57,360 --> 00:29:00,320 Speaker 1: Kamala Harris book, but it is historic because it's the 557 00:29:00,360 --> 00:29:02,360 Speaker 1: only book that began in chapter eleven. 558 00:29:02,840 --> 00:29:07,360 Speaker 2: I mean, come on, we're almost out of time. But 559 00:29:08,200 --> 00:29:11,120 Speaker 2: may Or, Mom, Donnie, he's easing up on the e bikes. 560 00:29:11,120 --> 00:29:14,400 Speaker 2: It's not going to be no more criminal anything. Would 561 00:29:14,400 --> 00:29:15,920 Speaker 2: you say that's one of the biggest threats to anybody 562 00:29:15,920 --> 00:29:18,080 Speaker 2: walking around New York those e bikes, EA, scooters, all 563 00:29:18,080 --> 00:29:18,600 Speaker 2: that stuff. 564 00:29:19,640 --> 00:29:23,560 Speaker 1: Yes, we're all living in the video game Frogger. Okay, 565 00:29:23,800 --> 00:29:26,480 Speaker 1: because it's not just trying to cross the street. They're 566 00:29:26,480 --> 00:29:29,360 Speaker 1: on the sidewalk, they're going the wrong way in traffic. 567 00:29:29,760 --> 00:29:32,720 Speaker 1: The bike lanes are obviously a suggestion. And by the way, 568 00:29:32,760 --> 00:29:35,600 Speaker 1: those bike lanes were originally justified because they said we'd 569 00:29:35,600 --> 00:29:37,560 Speaker 1: have less emissions. They said, well, you know, we cut 570 00:29:37,560 --> 00:29:40,760 Speaker 1: down on the car lanes more people ride bikes less pollution. 571 00:29:41,200 --> 00:29:44,120 Speaker 1: There's not a guy pedaling in the whole city. Every 572 00:29:44,120 --> 00:29:46,400 Speaker 1: one of those bikes has an engine, and all of 573 00:29:46,440 --> 00:29:49,040 Speaker 1: that congestion was caused by them, and now they're banging 574 00:29:49,120 --> 00:29:51,800 Speaker 1: us a tax for it. It's absurd, But mom, Donnie 575 00:29:51,800 --> 00:29:54,360 Speaker 1: doesn't care. I think like he likes the chaos Man. 576 00:29:54,400 --> 00:29:57,480 Speaker 1: It's like the Broadway play the producers. He's trying to 577 00:29:57,560 --> 00:30:00,600 Speaker 1: tank the play and collect insurance money. No other way 578 00:30:00,600 --> 00:30:04,040 Speaker 1: to describe it. He's zorn biali stock.
