1
00:00:11,920 --> 00:00:12,280
Speaker 1: Welcome.

2
00:00:12,280 --> 00:00:16,520
Speaker 2: You're watching Breaking Point on Real America's Voice News. What

3
00:00:16,640 --> 00:00:19,720
Speaker 2: an incredible week the shooting in New York City. I've

4
00:00:19,760 --> 00:00:23,720
Speaker 2: got great interviews with people who had family members in

5
00:00:23,760 --> 00:00:26,400
Speaker 2: the building, people who heard the gunshots ring out in

6
00:00:26,640 --> 00:00:29,160
Speaker 2: midtown Manhattan, not a place you would think about having

7
00:00:29,160 --> 00:00:33,840
Speaker 2: a mass shooting event or you know, other types of things.

8
00:00:34,200 --> 00:00:39,000
Speaker 2: Especially it's proximity to uh, you know, Fifth Avenue and

9
00:00:39,800 --> 00:00:42,200
Speaker 2: Iconic Park Avenue. You know, it's a it's a really

10
00:00:42,479 --> 00:00:45,760
Speaker 2: a nice part of New York City. But I want

11
00:00:45,760 --> 00:00:49,320
Speaker 2: to get right to our first guest here. We're very

12
00:00:49,320 --> 00:00:51,640
Speaker 2: honored to have with us, Christine Manettis.

13
00:00:52,479 --> 00:00:52,960
Speaker 1: How are you.

14
00:00:54,240 --> 00:00:54,880
Speaker 3: I'm doing well.

15
00:00:54,920 --> 00:00:59,120
Speaker 1: Thanks for having me, Yeah, thank you for joining us. Christine.

16
00:00:59,440 --> 00:01:02,280
Speaker 2: Christine is the author of Why the World Doesn't Make Sense,

17
00:01:02,360 --> 00:01:05,080
Speaker 2: Reclaiming the Liberty you didn't know you lost?

18
00:01:05,200 --> 00:01:06,560
Speaker 1: I lost it? What happened.

19
00:01:09,720 --> 00:01:11,880
Speaker 3: It's been a long time making, but we're going to

20
00:01:11,920 --> 00:01:12,400
Speaker 3: get it back.

21
00:01:13,640 --> 00:01:16,720
Speaker 1: Frogs in a pod, right, No, Yeah.

22
00:01:16,959 --> 00:01:19,479
Speaker 3: The book is really just about saying not just like

23
00:01:19,840 --> 00:01:22,920
Speaker 3: why did we get like not how, but why are

24
00:01:22,959 --> 00:01:25,560
Speaker 3: we here? What are all these underlying issues? And so

25
00:01:25,800 --> 00:01:29,400
Speaker 3: just pulling back the curtain right, whether we're talking about money, politics,

26
00:01:29,440 --> 00:01:32,480
Speaker 3: everyday life, culture, It's all the same thing. It's a

27
00:01:32,520 --> 00:01:36,800
Speaker 3: society that's become untethered from truth, and so I wanted

28
00:01:36,840 --> 00:01:38,720
Speaker 3: to really examine that and what we do about it,

29
00:01:38,760 --> 00:01:40,480
Speaker 3: starting with ourselves as individuals.

30
00:01:41,600 --> 00:01:43,400
Speaker 1: Tell us a little bit about your background.

31
00:01:45,600 --> 00:01:48,280
Speaker 3: My background is a little bit all over the map,

32
00:01:48,400 --> 00:01:51,800
Speaker 3: so that a pretty interesting life. I started off as

33
00:01:51,840 --> 00:01:54,520
Speaker 3: a concert pianist when I was a kid, which I

34
00:01:54,520 --> 00:02:00,400
Speaker 3: absolutely loved, had an injury and transitioned into law. I

35
00:02:00,440 --> 00:02:02,920
Speaker 3: was a trial attorney for a little while, fell in

36
00:02:02,920 --> 00:02:06,000
Speaker 3: love with constitutional law. I was a criminal defense attorney,

37
00:02:06,520 --> 00:02:12,920
Speaker 3: and then went into entrepreneurship. Had some great experiences building

38
00:02:12,919 --> 00:02:16,120
Speaker 3: some companies, everything for medical devices to commercial real estate.

39
00:02:16,480 --> 00:02:20,280
Speaker 3: Got into the bitcoin space around twenty seventeen and have

40
00:02:20,360 --> 00:02:24,160
Speaker 3: been in bitcoin and digital assets since then. And these

41
00:02:24,240 --> 00:02:26,720
Speaker 3: days I do this, so it's.

42
00:02:26,200 --> 00:02:29,520
Speaker 1: Been quite a jit. We have two things in common.

43
00:02:29,600 --> 00:02:31,919
Speaker 2: I played the piano, but I'm not a concert pianist,

44
00:02:32,520 --> 00:02:34,919
Speaker 2: and I'm a commercial real estate broker for thirty eight years,

45
00:02:35,000 --> 00:02:39,320
Speaker 2: so I can relate. But so a lot of concerns, right.

46
00:02:39,960 --> 00:02:43,440
Speaker 2: I have four children, three or done with college, ones

47
00:02:43,560 --> 00:02:46,480
Speaker 2: just about done. They have families and kids of their

48
00:02:46,480 --> 00:02:49,880
Speaker 2: own most of them. You know, thirty years ago, you'd

49
00:02:49,880 --> 00:02:52,600
Speaker 2: come out of college making fifty seventy eighty one hundred

50
00:02:52,680 --> 00:02:56,280
Speaker 2: grand a year with bonus offers to join a law firm.

51
00:02:56,480 --> 00:02:59,040
Speaker 2: Now it's twenty years later, the dollar is worth half

52
00:02:59,080 --> 00:03:02,440
Speaker 2: of what it was, college tuition is double, and kids

53
00:03:02,480 --> 00:03:04,760
Speaker 2: are coming out of college making entry level jobs like

54
00:03:04,760 --> 00:03:08,359
Speaker 2: they're managing a taco bell. Right, So no wonder why

55
00:03:08,400 --> 00:03:11,640
Speaker 2: they're so bitter, Right, that's why they're supporting these democratic socialists.

56
00:03:11,639 --> 00:03:12,240
Speaker 1: What do you think?

57
00:03:14,040 --> 00:03:17,320
Speaker 3: I think it's heartbreaking. You know, look this dark reality

58
00:03:17,360 --> 00:03:20,280
Speaker 3: what you're describing, and I've got a nephew graduating in

59
00:03:20,320 --> 00:03:23,280
Speaker 3: college this month, and who's right there with everybody going

60
00:03:23,320 --> 00:03:26,920
Speaker 3: through this right now? It's you know, unemployment rates among

61
00:03:26,960 --> 00:03:29,560
Speaker 3: these grads have surged over five and a half percent

62
00:03:29,639 --> 00:03:32,280
Speaker 3: or higher this year. It's it's outpacing the national average

63
00:03:32,280 --> 00:03:35,240
Speaker 3: for the first time in decades. And it's really heartbreaking

64
00:03:35,320 --> 00:03:38,720
Speaker 3: because these young people, exactly like you said, they've invested

65
00:03:38,840 --> 00:03:42,200
Speaker 3: years and often massive debt chasing this knowledge work dream.

66
00:03:42,280 --> 00:03:45,040
Speaker 3: Right this you know that you can memorize frameworks and

67
00:03:45,080 --> 00:03:49,520
Speaker 3: master systems and climb these predictable ladders to stability. And frankly,

68
00:03:49,560 --> 00:03:53,120
Speaker 3: it's dangerous because it's compounding expectation gaps that are prevalent

69
00:03:53,160 --> 00:03:57,000
Speaker 3: throughout society. So I think this isn't just a conversation about,

70
00:03:57,080 --> 00:04:00,120
Speaker 3: you know, one generation not having it better than their parents.

71
00:04:00,320 --> 00:04:02,360
Speaker 3: It's about them no longer seeing a path to the

72
00:04:02,400 --> 00:04:05,520
Speaker 3: ownership of anything, never mind their features.

73
00:04:06,120 --> 00:04:09,200
Speaker 2: Yeah, well, add six point eight percent this week's average

74
00:04:09,200 --> 00:04:11,839
Speaker 2: for a thirty year mortgage. You know, you're paying five

75
00:04:11,960 --> 00:04:14,200
Speaker 2: six thousand dollars a month for a house by the

76
00:04:14,200 --> 00:04:17,000
Speaker 2: time you've done with taxes and everything, especially in the Northeast,

77
00:04:17,600 --> 00:04:18,240
Speaker 2: they can't do it.

78
00:04:18,240 --> 00:04:20,320
Speaker 1: The American dream is fleeting. They don't see the.

79
00:04:20,320 --> 00:04:24,719
Speaker 3: Path, right, they don't see the path. And look today's society,

80
00:04:24,839 --> 00:04:27,880
Speaker 3: it's it isn't just broke, it's broken. You cannot have

81
00:04:27,960 --> 00:04:30,640
Speaker 3: a functioning society where people can't buy homes, where they

82
00:04:30,640 --> 00:04:33,240
Speaker 3: can't send their kids to school, they where they're starting

83
00:04:33,240 --> 00:04:36,000
Speaker 3: off life with massive debt. The average Gen Z kid

84
00:04:36,000 --> 00:04:38,200
Speaker 3: coming out of school right now has over ninety four

85
00:04:38,320 --> 00:04:42,000
Speaker 3: thousand dollars in debt. This is unsustainable. And you know,

86
00:04:42,080 --> 00:04:45,200
Speaker 3: in a system like ours, debt becomes this primary form

87
00:04:45,240 --> 00:04:48,240
Speaker 3: of wealth and it turns citizens into renters of their

88
00:04:48,279 --> 00:04:50,800
Speaker 3: own future. And I like to say it plays into

89
00:04:50,800 --> 00:04:53,440
Speaker 3: this futilization of everything that we're seeing across the board.

90
00:04:54,560 --> 00:04:56,760
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean I had three kids at twenty three.

91
00:04:56,800 --> 00:04:58,960
Speaker 2: I mean I started really young, but you know, I

92
00:04:59,040 --> 00:05:02,280
Speaker 2: bought a house at twenty seven. You know, I have

93
00:05:02,360 --> 00:05:03,960
Speaker 2: one kid who was able to buy a house at

94
00:05:04,000 --> 00:05:07,200
Speaker 2: about thirty one. I've got two stuck paying five thousand

95
00:05:07,279 --> 00:05:10,800
Speaker 2: dollars a month rent in Manhattan, another one finishing her

96
00:05:10,839 --> 00:05:11,919
Speaker 2: last year of college, you know.

97
00:05:12,080 --> 00:05:15,760
Speaker 1: And you know that it's a it's definitely a predicament.

98
00:05:15,800 --> 00:05:17,360
Speaker 2: And I don't want to be all doom and gloom,

99
00:05:17,400 --> 00:05:18,719
Speaker 2: but these are serious issues.

100
00:05:19,160 --> 00:05:20,520
Speaker 1: One more doom and gloom.

101
00:05:20,200 --> 00:05:22,479
Speaker 2: Issue before we get to a cure. You know, we

102
00:05:22,520 --> 00:05:25,599
Speaker 2: need a cure here, right. But my son, who's in

103
00:05:25,640 --> 00:05:30,839
Speaker 2: the AI end of things, in an online portal job management,

104
00:05:30,920 --> 00:05:33,200
Speaker 2: you know, for companies to you know, to do like

105
00:05:33,320 --> 00:05:37,800
Speaker 2: remote you know, project management, he says that AI is

106
00:05:37,839 --> 00:05:40,320
Speaker 2: going to eliminate seventy percent of entry level jobs.

107
00:05:40,360 --> 00:05:41,279
Speaker 1: What do you think about that?

108
00:05:43,600 --> 00:05:47,760
Speaker 3: I think that he's very possibly right, but I would

109
00:05:47,800 --> 00:05:52,839
Speaker 3: actually shift the narrative slightly. I think, you know, everyone

110
00:05:53,000 --> 00:05:56,120
Speaker 3: likes to likes to talk about AI coming for jobs.

111
00:05:56,680 --> 00:05:59,640
Speaker 3: But I think it's really more interesting and helps to

112
00:05:59,640 --> 00:06:01,920
Speaker 3: get us to that solution at least down the road,

113
00:06:01,920 --> 00:06:04,880
Speaker 3: if not for this limbo generation to really look at why.

114
00:06:05,960 --> 00:06:08,159
Speaker 3: And so I think if we look at AI, what

115
00:06:08,360 --> 00:06:11,599
Speaker 3: is AI really? It's not an angel, it's not a demon.

116
00:06:11,760 --> 00:06:14,960
Speaker 3: I think it's a mirror. And I think we got

117
00:06:15,000 --> 00:06:17,000
Speaker 3: to look at in the case of jobs, if we're

118
00:06:17,000 --> 00:06:19,880
Speaker 3: going to talk about jobs, what is AI reflecting back

119
00:06:19,920 --> 00:06:22,560
Speaker 3: to us? And I think it's two things, right. So

120
00:06:22,760 --> 00:06:26,160
Speaker 3: the first is going to be that our fusion of

121
00:06:26,640 --> 00:06:30,080
Speaker 3: education and skills training has led nowhere good.

122
00:06:30,440 --> 00:06:30,600
Speaker 1: Right.

123
00:06:30,720 --> 00:06:33,560
Speaker 3: Education is supposed to be about far more than just

124
00:06:33,680 --> 00:06:37,080
Speaker 3: job training. It's the intellectual foundation for who we are

125
00:06:37,120 --> 00:06:39,760
Speaker 3: as human beings. It's not preparation for life. It is

126
00:06:39,920 --> 00:06:43,080
Speaker 3: life and it doesn't end with the diploma. But today's

127
00:06:43,160 --> 00:06:47,479
Speaker 3: university is reward compliance over curiosity. And for decades we've

128
00:06:47,520 --> 00:06:52,080
Speaker 3: sold our grads on SWAT analysis and data dashboards, report

129
00:06:52,160 --> 00:06:55,560
Speaker 3: drafting all is the ticket to success. And we've sidelined

130
00:06:55,600 --> 00:06:58,280
Speaker 3: logic and first principles thinking in favor of these trendy

131
00:06:58,360 --> 00:07:02,400
Speaker 3: curricula that don't build independent minds. We've somehow convinced ourselves

132
00:07:02,400 --> 00:07:04,240
Speaker 3: that the goal is to make our kids fit for

133
00:07:04,279 --> 00:07:07,480
Speaker 3: the world, when really it should be ensuring their ability

134
00:07:07,480 --> 00:07:10,080
Speaker 3: to stand apart from it, especially when the world loses

135
00:07:10,120 --> 00:07:12,040
Speaker 3: its mind. And I think that brings us to the

136
00:07:12,080 --> 00:07:15,720
Speaker 3: second thing that AI is really exposed and is reflecting

137
00:07:15,800 --> 00:07:19,000
Speaker 3: back to us, and that's that what we call education

138
00:07:19,280 --> 00:07:23,000
Speaker 3: has evolved into skills training, and as we're seeing, it's

139
00:07:23,080 --> 00:07:25,960
Speaker 3: woefully inefficient at that. And that's where it leads to

140
00:07:26,040 --> 00:07:29,320
Speaker 3: this very strong possibility of what your son is talking about.

141
00:07:29,400 --> 00:07:33,560
Speaker 3: So it's AI is exposing these contradictions in our knowledge

142
00:07:33,560 --> 00:07:38,480
Speaker 3: economy myth right, where let's say we prioritize credentialism and

143
00:07:38,520 --> 00:07:43,960
Speaker 3: this procedural mastery over genuine intellectual agility. We train grads

144
00:07:43,960 --> 00:07:46,800
Speaker 3: to optimize with the boxes and not to redefine them

145
00:07:46,840 --> 00:07:49,640
Speaker 3: using the AI as a tool. And so if this

146
00:07:49,760 --> 00:07:52,880
Speaker 3: credential mill doesn't evolve, we're going to produce a generation

147
00:07:52,960 --> 00:07:56,800
Speaker 3: of AI babysitters instead of innovators, right, and that's going

148
00:07:56,840 --> 00:07:59,960
Speaker 3: to perpetuate the inequality that we were just talking about,

149
00:08:01,240 --> 00:08:04,640
Speaker 3: especially if you see that only the elite programs are adapting.

150
00:08:05,320 --> 00:08:08,280
Speaker 3: So I don't know, I think it's this popular narrative

151
00:08:08,320 --> 00:08:13,000
Speaker 3: today that unemployment stats show that AI is making college obsolete.

152
00:08:13,040 --> 00:08:16,400
Speaker 3: But I think it's really just exposing that college is

153
00:08:16,440 --> 00:08:18,880
Speaker 3: already obsolete. If a chat thought could do your job

154
00:08:18,920 --> 00:08:21,400
Speaker 3: on day one, that's some an AI problem, that's a

155
00:08:21,480 --> 00:08:26,120
Speaker 3: curriculum problem. And skills training requires, you know, getting tomorrow,

156
00:08:26,280 --> 00:08:28,320
Speaker 3: not just understanding today or yesterday.

157
00:08:28,400 --> 00:08:33,800
Speaker 2: Yeah, well, okay, I only have a ged right, so

158
00:08:33,960 --> 00:08:36,040
Speaker 2: I got about half of what you were saying, because

159
00:08:36,080 --> 00:08:40,040
Speaker 2: you're a lot smarter than me. No, but I all seriousness,

160
00:08:40,520 --> 00:08:42,640
Speaker 2: you know, and and I don't mean to depress our audience.

161
00:08:42,679 --> 00:08:44,960
Speaker 2: It's eight in the morning on a Saturday Eastern time.

162
00:08:45,040 --> 00:08:47,400
Speaker 2: You know, they're just drinking their coffee. The world's going

163
00:08:47,480 --> 00:08:51,440
Speaker 2: to end. But it's a it's an important discussion, and

164
00:08:51,520 --> 00:08:53,840
Speaker 2: I appreciate you shedding light. It sounds like you've really

165
00:08:53,840 --> 00:08:56,840
Speaker 2: got to grasp on something here that you know it

166
00:08:56,880 --> 00:08:57,920
Speaker 2: needs to be harnessed.

167
00:08:57,960 --> 00:08:58,920
Speaker 1: What do we do with it?

168
00:08:59,320 --> 00:09:01,800
Speaker 2: And then how do we create you know, maybe more

169
00:09:02,080 --> 00:09:06,280
Speaker 2: mid level management, upper management account you know, you know

170
00:09:06,400 --> 00:09:10,040
Speaker 2: management jobs, you know, which may be more lucrative than

171
00:09:10,160 --> 00:09:12,240
Speaker 2: entry level. Right, we have a minute, we have thirty

172
00:09:12,280 --> 00:09:14,800
Speaker 2: five seconds. Tell us your final thoughts.

173
00:09:15,320 --> 00:09:17,400
Speaker 3: Well, look, I think we need to stop pretending the

174
00:09:17,400 --> 00:09:20,560
Speaker 3: college's formation. Let's let's build formation for its own sake.

175
00:09:20,640 --> 00:09:23,040
Speaker 3: But in the meantime, let's steer these young people who

176
00:09:23,080 --> 00:09:25,920
Speaker 3: are falling into this category into real work that they

177
00:09:25,920 --> 00:09:29,200
Speaker 3: can own and earn from today, layered in with AI

178
00:09:29,320 --> 00:09:32,680
Speaker 3: and with market fluency, so that they're not left behind tomorrow.

179
00:09:32,800 --> 00:09:34,480
Speaker 3: And I think we need to be honest about what

180
00:09:34,480 --> 00:09:35,240
Speaker 3: tomorrow looks like.

181
00:09:36,679 --> 00:09:40,040
Speaker 2: Wow, all right, so everyone to go out and get

182
00:09:40,080 --> 00:09:42,959
Speaker 2: your book why the world doesn't make sense?

183
00:09:43,280 --> 00:09:45,880
Speaker 1: Reclaiming the liberty you didn't know you lost.

184
00:09:46,559 --> 00:09:50,720
Speaker 2: I'll give you twenty seconds on digital surveillance and the future.

185
00:09:53,320 --> 00:09:53,600
Speaker 4: Yeah.

186
00:09:53,600 --> 00:09:57,280
Speaker 3: Look, I think we're witnessing this increasing cutilization of everything.

187
00:09:57,320 --> 00:09:59,640
Speaker 3: If you think about it, we're all living on lease lands.

188
00:10:00,160 --> 00:10:03,439
Speaker 3: It's money, data, identity, not to mention, they're literally turning

189
00:10:03,480 --> 00:10:06,040
Speaker 3: us into a nation of renters. But this is something

190
00:10:06,080 --> 00:10:09,400
Speaker 3: that I think education can fix and we can retake

191
00:10:09,440 --> 00:10:13,960
Speaker 3: ownership of. And it's really just highly critical to understanding

192
00:10:14,360 --> 00:10:17,600
Speaker 3: the AI discussion that we're having right now and then

193
00:10:17,640 --> 00:10:18,520
Speaker 3: talk about the future.

194
00:10:19,760 --> 00:10:25,640
Speaker 2: Yeah Christ again, job, Yeah, well well now I just

195
00:10:26,120 --> 00:10:30,079
Speaker 2: we go but us it does. And John Locke is

00:10:30,080 --> 00:10:33,800
Speaker 2: spinning in his grave right now, so about private property rights.

Speaker 1: But thank you so much. I'd love to have you back.

Speaker 2: You're watching Real America's Voice News. And I was on

225
00:12:19,760 --> 00:12:22,360
Speaker 2: the ground at three forty five Park Avenue this week

226
00:12:22,679 --> 00:12:26,560
Speaker 2: with people who had family in the building or friends

227
00:12:27,080 --> 00:12:28,240
Speaker 2: or were just in the area.

228
00:12:28,360 --> 00:12:30,440
Speaker 1: Heard the gunshots ring out.

229
00:12:30,840 --> 00:12:36,520
Speaker 2: I've got incredible interviews, man on the Street interviews. Ran

230
00:12:36,559 --> 00:12:39,079
Speaker 2: into some reviewers down there in the middle of Manhattan,

231
00:12:39,360 --> 00:12:43,040
Speaker 2: which is good. Means we're breaking through. But I want

232
00:12:43,080 --> 00:12:48,320
Speaker 2: to welcome our guest with us right now, Tony Delgado.

233
00:12:48,520 --> 00:12:52,000
Speaker 2: He is the founder, the co founder of Latino Wall Street. Tony,

234
00:12:52,000 --> 00:12:52,520
Speaker 2: what's cooking?

235
00:12:52,600 --> 00:12:55,880
Speaker 1: How are you good? To see you? My friend?

236
00:12:57,400 --> 00:13:00,880
Speaker 2: Yes, yes, it's great to finally meet you, even if

237
00:13:00,920 --> 00:13:05,040
Speaker 2: it's on camera. You know, Adam Weiss has you know,

238
00:13:05,280 --> 00:13:07,920
Speaker 2: been with me at a couple of events, and we

239
00:13:07,960 --> 00:13:10,120
Speaker 2: went to the General Flint event last week, and I

240
00:13:10,120 --> 00:13:12,720
Speaker 2: want to thank you for that invite that was exciting.

241
00:13:13,920 --> 00:13:16,360
Speaker 2: So I know you're active with SEAPACK and we were

242
00:13:16,400 --> 00:13:19,640
Speaker 2: down there for the Human Trafficking Summit. Incredible stuff, right,

243
00:13:21,720 --> 00:13:24,479
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, SEABEK is doing really incredible work.

244
00:13:25,800 --> 00:13:30,720
Speaker 6: Combating human trafficking and combating communism all throughout Latin America

245
00:13:30,760 --> 00:13:32,600
Speaker 6: and all around the world. I mean, I think that's

246
00:13:32,600 --> 00:13:35,719
Speaker 6: one of the real inspirational things about Seabeck. And the

247
00:13:35,720 --> 00:13:40,319
Speaker 6: reason that we've gotten involved in decided to start the

248
00:13:40,360 --> 00:13:45,600
Speaker 6: Seabeck Latino movement was to because we were inspired by

249
00:13:45,600 --> 00:13:50,240
Speaker 6: this international coalition of leaders who were standing up against communism,

250
00:13:50,320 --> 00:13:54,240
Speaker 6: standing up against socialism, and trying to prevent that cancer

251
00:13:54,320 --> 00:13:56,400
Speaker 6: from spreading here in the US and around the world.

252
00:13:57,559 --> 00:13:59,560
Speaker 1: Yeah, and I know you were active in Florida at

253
00:13:59,600 --> 00:14:01,280
Speaker 1: the Latin you know Seapack. How did that go?

254
00:14:03,000 --> 00:14:03,160
Speaker 4: Oh?

255
00:14:03,200 --> 00:14:06,840
Speaker 6: Yeah, it was incredible. So at the SEAPAC Latino, my

256
00:14:07,000 --> 00:14:10,640
Speaker 6: organization Latino Wall Street partner with SEAPAC and we brought

257
00:14:11,400 --> 00:14:17,360
Speaker 6: Bolsonaro from Brazil, we bought Eduardo from Mexico and many

258
00:14:17,400 --> 00:14:21,120
Speaker 6: other leaders together to talk about the issues that are

259
00:14:21,760 --> 00:14:26,680
Speaker 6: facing our country. And you know, Latin America and the

260
00:14:26,760 --> 00:14:30,960
Speaker 6: United States, you know, we're really connected. Our economies are connected.

261
00:14:31,880 --> 00:14:34,080
Speaker 6: A lot of times, our politics are connected, our water

262
00:14:34,240 --> 00:14:37,840
Speaker 6: is connected. So again, I think that communism and socialism

263
00:14:37,920 --> 00:14:42,000
Speaker 6: and these really dangerous ideologies, they're like a cancer and

264
00:14:42,040 --> 00:14:44,240
Speaker 6: we have to stop them from spreading or we're going

265
00:14:44,320 --> 00:14:48,120
Speaker 6: to go down the pathway of Venezuela and Cuba and

266
00:14:48,160 --> 00:14:55,120
Speaker 6: a lot of other totalitarian regimes who have created more poverty,

267
00:14:55,320 --> 00:14:58,280
Speaker 6: created less freedom in their countries. And I think it's

268
00:14:58,320 --> 00:15:01,560
Speaker 6: a telltale of warning sign of what's to come if

269
00:15:01,560 --> 00:15:02,560
Speaker 6: we don't get our act together.

270
00:15:03,480 --> 00:15:06,840
Speaker 2: Yeah, in the US always hasn't been the best actor

271
00:15:07,120 --> 00:15:10,160
Speaker 2: in South America, you know, in Chile and stuff. But

272
00:15:11,080 --> 00:15:13,600
Speaker 2: you know Chae Bovara and these other guys down there,

273
00:15:13,720 --> 00:15:17,040
Speaker 2: they I feel like they've held the South American and

274
00:15:17,120 --> 00:15:19,560
Speaker 2: Central American countries back from progress.

275
00:15:19,600 --> 00:15:22,600
Speaker 1: What do you think, Yeah, absolutely.

276
00:15:22,680 --> 00:15:26,680
Speaker 6: I mean, go to Miami and ask ask any Venezuela

277
00:15:26,720 --> 00:15:29,520
Speaker 6: and or Cuban American about how they feel about their

278
00:15:29,520 --> 00:15:31,640
Speaker 6: home country's politics, and they're going to tell you that

279
00:15:31,720 --> 00:15:34,760
Speaker 6: these ideologies are super, super dangerous. And that's why it's

280
00:15:34,760 --> 00:15:38,480
Speaker 6: really scary, as as a former New Yorker to see

281
00:15:38,480 --> 00:15:41,640
Speaker 6: what's happening in the mayor race in New York to

282
00:15:41,680 --> 00:15:46,240
Speaker 6: have a self proclaimed socialist running at the top of

283
00:15:46,280 --> 00:15:50,240
Speaker 6: the ticket. It is really really scary and dangerous to see.

284
00:15:50,320 --> 00:15:53,960
Speaker 6: We had that shooting this past week. I actually have

285
00:15:54,000 --> 00:15:55,920
Speaker 6: a really good friend of mine whose son works at

286
00:15:55,920 --> 00:15:59,480
Speaker 6: Blackrock and his son was barricade in a room with

287
00:15:59,520 --> 00:16:03,440
Speaker 6: some of the others and it was really really scary

288
00:16:03,720 --> 00:16:05,600
Speaker 6: and troublesome to see those things happening.

289
00:16:06,800 --> 00:16:09,120
Speaker 2: Yeah, it was that Wednesday night doing a Man on

290
00:16:09,160 --> 00:16:12,120
Speaker 2: the Street interviews. Everybody was impacted. People saw what was

291
00:16:12,200 --> 00:16:14,640
Speaker 2: going on, they heard the shots ring out. A guy's

292
00:16:14,640 --> 00:16:17,800
Speaker 2: wife was working in the building, just went on and on,

293
00:16:19,000 --> 00:16:20,120
Speaker 2: and that's you know, New York.

294
00:16:20,200 --> 00:16:24,120
Speaker 1: Everybody knows somebody, everybody knows each other. In Midtown Manhattan.

295
00:16:24,680 --> 00:16:26,280
Speaker 1: You would think it would be generally.

296
00:16:26,000 --> 00:16:31,160
Speaker 2: Safe, and that that's been shattered, right, So, you know,

297
00:16:31,240 --> 00:16:35,640
Speaker 2: between our history of terrorism and the increased sexual assaults

298
00:16:35,640 --> 00:16:39,240
Speaker 2: in New York City and the felony and misdemeanor assaults

299
00:16:39,240 --> 00:16:42,840
Speaker 2: that are twenty plus year highs forty two thousand New

300
00:16:42,920 --> 00:16:45,440
Speaker 2: Yorkers assaulted in the streets so far this year, twenty

301
00:16:45,480 --> 00:16:48,560
Speaker 2: one point seven percent increase in rape year to date.

302
00:16:49,280 --> 00:16:51,920
Speaker 2: So murders and shootings are down. So this comes to

303
00:16:51,960 --> 00:16:57,200
Speaker 2: my next topic, Right, the mayor's race. You're supporting Mayor Adams.

304
00:16:57,240 --> 00:16:59,800
Speaker 2: Tell us why so.

305
00:17:01,040 --> 00:17:09,760
Speaker 6: Mayor Adams is the one of the only chances I

306
00:17:09,760 --> 00:17:12,400
Speaker 6: think we have for saving the city of New York.

307
00:17:12,600 --> 00:17:12,800
Speaker 1: Right.

308
00:17:13,840 --> 00:17:16,160
Speaker 6: I don't agree with him on every single policy. Right,

309
00:17:16,200 --> 00:17:22,080
Speaker 6: he's very against guns. Right, he's a Democrat who has

310
00:17:22,119 --> 00:17:24,359
Speaker 6: now turned independent. But I think on a lot of

311
00:17:24,359 --> 00:17:26,399
Speaker 6: issues he's had changes of hearts. I think on a

312
00:17:26,440 --> 00:17:29,760
Speaker 6: lot of issues he is on the right side of history.

313
00:17:30,240 --> 00:17:32,760
Speaker 6: I do think that New York is much better than

314
00:17:32,760 --> 00:17:34,119
Speaker 6: it was when he inherited it.

315
00:17:34,200 --> 00:17:34,400
Speaker 1: Right.

316
00:17:34,640 --> 00:17:37,800
Speaker 6: He inherited it in the middle of COVID, when you

317
00:17:37,880 --> 00:17:41,280
Speaker 6: still had lockdowns, you still had mandates. The city was

318
00:17:42,000 --> 00:17:45,240
Speaker 6: really not a safe place to be, super super dangerous.

319
00:17:45,520 --> 00:17:48,359
Speaker 6: And when you look at Eric adams history, he is

320
00:17:48,720 --> 00:17:52,960
Speaker 6: a native New Yorker, he is former NYPD, right, he

321
00:17:53,000 --> 00:17:56,000
Speaker 6: was a police officer for twenty plus years, and I

322
00:17:56,040 --> 00:18:00,560
Speaker 6: think he really does understand what the city needs. And

323
00:18:01,080 --> 00:18:06,560
Speaker 6: unfortunately we have this four way ticket where the votes

324
00:18:06,600 --> 00:18:11,199
Speaker 6: are now being split between a Republican which he might

325
00:18:11,240 --> 00:18:13,359
Speaker 6: as well be a third party candidate at this point.

326
00:18:14,359 --> 00:18:17,679
Speaker 6: You know, good guy, But again, I don't think he

327
00:18:17,760 --> 00:18:22,200
Speaker 6: has statistically a chance of winning. We have Cuomo, who

328
00:18:22,680 --> 00:18:27,919
Speaker 6: is the disgraced governor of New York who had to

329
00:18:28,680 --> 00:18:33,440
Speaker 6: resign in disgrace over sex scandals and various corruption allegations.

330
00:18:34,200 --> 00:18:37,119
Speaker 6: And then you have this socialist. You have this socialist

331
00:18:37,680 --> 00:18:41,399
Speaker 6: uh you know, pro Palestine, radical guy. And then you

332
00:18:41,400 --> 00:18:43,600
Speaker 6: have the existing mayor. Right, you have the existing mayor

333
00:18:43,640 --> 00:18:48,040
Speaker 6: of New York who has been making instrumental steps did

334
00:18:48,240 --> 00:18:50,440
Speaker 6: change a lot on policy.

335
00:18:50,520 --> 00:18:50,680
Speaker 1: Right.

336
00:18:50,720 --> 00:18:54,040
Speaker 6: He was a very pro immigration coming into his term,

337
00:18:54,040 --> 00:18:58,360
Speaker 6: as many Democrats are, but then he saw the negative impacts, right,

338
00:18:58,400 --> 00:19:01,640
Speaker 6: he saw how the city of being a well and

339
00:19:02,520 --> 00:19:06,320
Speaker 6: in the in the In the last year, he's now

340
00:19:06,359 --> 00:19:08,399
Speaker 6: started to work with Tom Holman, work with the new

341
00:19:08,440 --> 00:19:13,560
Speaker 6: administration and taking steps towards cleaning up the mess.

342
00:19:13,320 --> 00:19:13,720
Speaker 1: At the border.

343
00:19:13,840 --> 00:19:16,399
Speaker 2: Okay, I have a lot of questions for you. I'm

344
00:19:16,400 --> 00:19:19,719
Speaker 2: going to rapid fire because I love Curtis Sliwa and

345
00:19:19,760 --> 00:19:22,480
Speaker 2: I know that he's only eleven percent of the vote

346
00:19:22,520 --> 00:19:26,840
Speaker 2: as a Republican in New York City, and I understand

347
00:19:26,840 --> 00:19:28,840
Speaker 2: the dynamics.

348
00:19:27,960 --> 00:19:29,240
Speaker 3: For the reord But let me.

349
00:19:31,119 --> 00:19:33,919
Speaker 6: I have nothing against Curtis. Again, for the record, I

350
00:19:33,920 --> 00:19:37,719
Speaker 6: think he's a great man and he has an incredible history.

351
00:19:37,760 --> 00:19:39,000
Speaker 6: But go ahead and ask you a question.

352
00:19:40,240 --> 00:19:44,560
Speaker 2: Yeah, so listen, Adams pointed the Statue of Liberty and

353
00:19:44,640 --> 00:19:46,919
Speaker 2: invited the illegals to New York. How many people have

354
00:19:46,960 --> 00:19:50,960
Speaker 2: been killed, stabbed, or raped or robbed because of that policy? Now,

355
00:19:51,320 --> 00:19:54,520
Speaker 2: I think his stances have turned the corner because of

356
00:19:54,560 --> 00:19:58,280
Speaker 2: the pressure from Trump, and I think not getting prosecuted,

357
00:19:58,560 --> 00:20:01,160
Speaker 2: you know, So why does My question is why does

358
00:20:01,240 --> 00:20:04,920
Speaker 2: Mayor Adams deserve to be able to run after three

359
00:20:04,920 --> 00:20:07,200
Speaker 2: and a half years of bad policy and all of

360
00:20:07,240 --> 00:20:09,399
Speaker 2: a sudden he has a change of heart, you know,

361
00:20:09,520 --> 00:20:11,880
Speaker 2: And that's a problem for me. But my bigger problem

362
00:20:12,359 --> 00:20:14,960
Speaker 2: is that he's only polling at seven, nine and thirteen

363
00:20:15,040 --> 00:20:18,240
Speaker 2: percent and three of the last four so major polls.

364
00:20:18,359 --> 00:20:21,200
Speaker 2: Curtis out polling him, everyone else out polling him. So

365
00:20:21,240 --> 00:20:23,760
Speaker 2: how does he win? And I'll support Adams in the end.

366
00:20:23,800 --> 00:20:25,840
Speaker 2: I'm not a city voter, but my kids live there.

367
00:20:26,040 --> 00:20:28,960
Speaker 2: I'll support Adams if he's the last guy standing here.

368
00:20:29,320 --> 00:20:31,639
Speaker 2: But how does he win head to head with Mandami

369
00:20:31,800 --> 00:20:33,959
Speaker 2: in one poll showing he's at fifty percent?

370
00:20:36,359 --> 00:20:40,160
Speaker 6: Yeah, so, I mean a lot of unpacked there first

371
00:20:40,160 --> 00:20:42,960
Speaker 6: and foremost, Yeah, thank you. Curtis has a great, No,

372
00:20:43,080 --> 00:20:46,679
Speaker 6: it's fine. I think Curtis has a great history and

373
00:20:47,520 --> 00:20:50,040
Speaker 6: service in the community in the city of New York.

374
00:20:50,040 --> 00:20:51,600
Speaker 6: I think he has a lot of good ideas.

375
00:20:52,520 --> 00:20:54,000
Speaker 1: But similar to Robert F.

376
00:20:54,080 --> 00:20:57,720
Speaker 6: Kennedy Junior, who ran in the presidential race against Trump,

377
00:20:57,720 --> 00:20:59,919
Speaker 6: what I would like to see is I would love

378
00:20:59,920 --> 00:21:03,399
Speaker 6: to see Curtis team up with Mayor Adams, who is

379
00:21:03,440 --> 00:21:06,800
Speaker 6: the sitting mayor at the moment, and become the safeties

380
00:21:06,880 --> 00:21:10,520
Speaker 6: are right. What if he came and was put in

381
00:21:10,600 --> 00:21:13,159
Speaker 6: charge of safety, good idea, in charge of keeping some

382
00:21:13,280 --> 00:21:16,639
Speaker 6: way safe and making the city a safer place. And

383
00:21:16,680 --> 00:21:19,239
Speaker 6: I think Eric Adams is a former police officer. He

384
00:21:19,359 --> 00:21:22,639
Speaker 6: understands being tough on crime. I think Curtis has a

385
00:21:22,720 --> 00:21:24,840
Speaker 6: very similar history of being tough on crime, and I

386
00:21:24,880 --> 00:21:26,439
Speaker 6: would love to see the two of them get together

387
00:21:26,680 --> 00:21:28,760
Speaker 6: and work to make the city a better place. Okay,

388
00:21:28,920 --> 00:21:32,760
Speaker 6: in a common sense, so alternative to the socialists.

389
00:21:32,200 --> 00:21:36,199
Speaker 2: Right, No, I and I agree with that concept. But

390
00:21:36,400 --> 00:21:38,400
Speaker 2: you know, Mayor Lindsay won in a three way race

391
00:21:38,440 --> 00:21:41,320
Speaker 2: and a plurality in nineteen sixty nine in a four

392
00:21:41,359 --> 00:21:43,920
Speaker 2: way race. This one poll that is probably a Mam

393
00:21:43,960 --> 00:21:47,040
Speaker 2: Donnie Pole, you know, says that even if all three

394
00:21:47,320 --> 00:21:49,840
Speaker 2: or four of the other candidates ganged up against him,

395
00:21:50,119 --> 00:21:53,440
Speaker 2: they still couldn't surpass the number that Mandannie's going to

396
00:21:53,480 --> 00:21:56,480
Speaker 2: get in the general election. But are we better off

397
00:21:56,560 --> 00:21:58,920
Speaker 2: in a four way race or a five way race

398
00:21:58,960 --> 00:22:02,560
Speaker 2: where the possibility Mendannie don't doesn't win in a plurality

399
00:22:02,600 --> 00:22:07,080
Speaker 2: then a head to head race with Adams or even Cuomo,

400
00:22:07,280 --> 00:22:09,240
Speaker 2: who you know it doesn't look like they can win

401
00:22:09,320 --> 00:22:11,879
Speaker 2: that way. What do you think.

402
00:22:13,119 --> 00:22:16,200
Speaker 6: I don't want to take the risk and the chances.

403
00:22:16,200 --> 00:22:20,960
Speaker 6: It's a New Yorker to have Mandanni a socialist, a radical,

404
00:22:21,200 --> 00:22:25,600
Speaker 6: someone who wants to give away property. Right. He's talked

405
00:22:25,600 --> 00:22:29,440
Speaker 6: about seizing landlord's buildings if he doesn't like to time

406
00:22:29,480 --> 00:22:35,200
Speaker 6: they're being managed. He's talked about having government run grocery stores.

407
00:22:35,240 --> 00:22:37,679
Speaker 6: We've seen how that's gone and gotten played out in

408
00:22:37,680 --> 00:22:40,600
Speaker 6: places like you and Venezuela, where the shelves are empty

409
00:22:40,680 --> 00:22:43,480
Speaker 6: and where you would put every bodega and every small

410
00:22:43,520 --> 00:22:46,560
Speaker 6: business out of business because you're competing with them giving

411
00:22:46,560 --> 00:22:49,320
Speaker 6: away food essentially for free and selling food at cost price.

412
00:22:50,240 --> 00:22:52,480
Speaker 6: I don't want to take the resk of Mandami getting

413
00:22:53,359 --> 00:22:56,600
Speaker 6: into power, and for that reason, I would be calling

414
00:22:56,680 --> 00:23:00,760
Speaker 6: for both Cuomo and Curtis to get behind Rick Adams

415
00:23:01,000 --> 00:23:03,960
Speaker 6: and again promise them seats in the administrations that we

416
00:23:03,960 --> 00:23:06,920
Speaker 6: can come together. I think they probably have got a

417
00:23:06,960 --> 00:23:08,520
Speaker 6: lot more issues than the disagree.

418
00:23:09,600 --> 00:23:11,920
Speaker 2: Yeah, you might be right about that, and let's see

419
00:23:11,920 --> 00:23:13,879
Speaker 2: how it's on folds. I think by September we'll know

420
00:23:13,960 --> 00:23:16,320
Speaker 2: a lot more. We have twenty seconds. Where can I

Speaker 1: Zer on Insta. Don't go anywhere coming up.

436
00:24:14,320 --> 00:24:17,400
Speaker 2: I've got great interviews with New Yorkers on the Street

437
00:24:17,480 --> 00:24:20,840
Speaker 2: who were there or had family members who work in

438
00:24:20,880 --> 00:24:24,199
Speaker 2: the building at three forty five Park with those, you know,

439
00:24:24,240 --> 00:24:27,560
Speaker 2: with that mass shooting occurred. So tragic New York City,

440
00:24:27,960 --> 00:24:30,920
Speaker 2: you know, under fire from all directions. So don't let

441
00:24:30,920 --> 00:24:33,000
Speaker 2: them lie to you when they say, you know, murders

442
00:24:33,000 --> 00:24:35,360
Speaker 2: and shootings are down. But you know, rape is up

443
00:24:35,560 --> 00:24:38,600
Speaker 2: sixty five percent this week. It's up twenty one point

444
00:24:38,640 --> 00:24:42,400
Speaker 2: seven percent for the year, according to the NYPD, and

445
00:24:42,760 --> 00:24:45,520
Speaker 2: forty two thousand New Yorkers have been victims of felony

446
00:24:45,600 --> 00:24:48,159
Speaker 2: or misdemeanor assault so far this year. And then they

447
00:24:48,240 --> 00:24:49,959
Speaker 2: got to deal with this, right, they've got to deal

448
00:24:49,960 --> 00:24:51,560
Speaker 2: with terrorism, all kinds of.

449
00:24:51,560 --> 00:24:52,159
Speaker 1: Stuff, you know.

450
00:24:53,119 --> 00:24:55,760
Speaker 2: But before we get to that, in the next segment,

451
00:24:55,840 --> 00:24:58,880
Speaker 2: I have with us, and I'm always really so grateful

452
00:24:58,920 --> 00:25:01,040
Speaker 2: to have Jonathan toe been the editor in chief of

453
00:25:01,160 --> 00:25:05,879
Speaker 2: JNS Newsweek. Columnist Senior contributed to The Federalist. Hello, mister Toobin,

454
00:25:05,920 --> 00:25:06,720
Speaker 2: how are you, sir.

455
00:25:07,280 --> 00:25:09,000
Speaker 4: Great to be with you, Thanks for having me on.

456
00:25:10,400 --> 00:25:13,800
Speaker 2: Yes, you know, I was in a desperate need for

457
00:25:13,840 --> 00:25:17,920
Speaker 2: some expertise here. You know, we're seeing images coming out

458
00:25:17,920 --> 00:25:22,520
Speaker 2: of Gaza, and you know, there's so many issues here

459
00:25:22,720 --> 00:25:25,719
Speaker 2: and I wanted to start off you know, wouldn't this

460
00:25:25,840 --> 00:25:27,080
Speaker 2: all change.

461
00:25:26,640 --> 00:25:30,520
Speaker 1: If the hostages were released? And are are they still alive?

462
00:25:32,359 --> 00:25:36,360
Speaker 7: Well, supposedly at least twenty of them are still alive.

463
00:25:37,280 --> 00:25:40,879
Speaker 7: Hamasa's you know, they're still about fifty unaccounted for. We

464
00:25:41,000 --> 00:25:45,280
Speaker 7: believe about twenty eight of them are dead. Twenty two

465
00:25:45,480 --> 00:25:49,399
Speaker 7: are believed to be still alive. And of course the

466
00:25:49,440 --> 00:25:52,080
Speaker 7: war would have ended at any point since oct w seventh,

467
00:25:52,119 --> 00:25:54,960
Speaker 7: if all the hostages would have been released, that would

468
00:25:55,000 --> 00:25:58,040
Speaker 7: have been you know, probably enough for Israel. But of

469
00:25:58,080 --> 00:26:01,600
Speaker 7: course Hamas has no intention of releasing all of the hostages.

470
00:26:01,600 --> 00:26:03,560
Speaker 7: They're going to hold on to as many of them

471
00:26:03,600 --> 00:26:07,040
Speaker 7: and as many of the bodies that they ghoulishly hold

472
00:26:07,080 --> 00:26:11,439
Speaker 7: on to for ransom, because that's their lifeline. And you

473
00:26:11,440 --> 00:26:14,160
Speaker 7: know what we have to understand about what's going on now.

474
00:26:14,440 --> 00:26:18,560
Speaker 7: We're deluged by these images of starvation and sick children

475
00:26:19,200 --> 00:26:21,639
Speaker 7: on the front page of the New York Times, even

476
00:26:21,680 --> 00:26:25,120
Speaker 7: when those images are then proven to be fraudulent, as

477
00:26:25,160 --> 00:26:28,760
Speaker 7: with that famous picture of that skeletal, poor you know

478
00:26:28,960 --> 00:26:30,919
Speaker 7: kid that was on the front page of the New

479
00:26:31,000 --> 00:26:32,959
Speaker 7: York Times last week, And of course it turns out

480
00:26:33,000 --> 00:26:35,560
Speaker 7: someone it turns out a kid who had a terrible

481
00:26:35,560 --> 00:26:39,920
Speaker 7: genetic condition wasn't starving, you know, everybody else in the

482
00:26:39,960 --> 00:26:43,560
Speaker 7: picture was fine, and he actually received treatment in Israel.

483
00:26:43,640 --> 00:26:44,479
Speaker 4: Now he's in Italy.

484
00:26:45,160 --> 00:26:49,840
Speaker 7: But that's you know, talk about New York Times misinformation.

485
00:26:50,040 --> 00:26:52,560
Speaker 7: People who only read the New York Times, which used

486
00:26:52,560 --> 00:26:55,679
Speaker 7: to be, you know, the preeminent source for news in

487
00:26:55,720 --> 00:26:56,360
Speaker 7: our country.

488
00:26:56,720 --> 00:27:00,000
Speaker 4: They're the most misinformed people you know in our cut

489
00:27:00,400 --> 00:27:00,960
Speaker 4: right well.

490
00:27:02,359 --> 00:27:06,160
Speaker 7: About history, yeah, and with the history of anti Semitism,

491
00:27:06,200 --> 00:27:11,280
Speaker 7: anti Israel bias. But what we have to understand that

492
00:27:11,320 --> 00:27:13,960
Speaker 7: to the extent that there is a food shortage in Gaza.

493
00:27:13,680 --> 00:27:16,240
Speaker 4: And apparently there is, and apparently.

494
00:27:15,720 --> 00:27:17,400
Speaker 7: Some people, you know, a lot, there is a lot

495
00:27:17,400 --> 00:27:21,280
Speaker 7: of suffering in Gaza, it is orchestrated by Hamas.

496
00:27:21,960 --> 00:27:24,920
Speaker 4: There has never really been a food shortage there.

497
00:27:25,080 --> 00:27:27,080
Speaker 7: Israel has in spite of the fact that there's been

498
00:27:27,119 --> 00:27:29,280
Speaker 7: a war going on for twenty two months, Israel has

499
00:27:29,320 --> 00:27:33,080
Speaker 7: always let food in, right, you know, in the last

500
00:27:33,119 --> 00:27:38,720
Speaker 7: weeks it's been flooding Gaza with food. The problem is

501
00:27:38,760 --> 00:27:42,840
Speaker 7: that at first the main source of food the humanitarian

502
00:27:42,920 --> 00:27:46,440
Speaker 7: assistance was the UN and they were in the pockets

503
00:27:46,480 --> 00:27:50,040
Speaker 7: of Hamas. Hamas steals the food Hamas hoards it for

504
00:27:50,160 --> 00:27:54,080
Speaker 7: its cadres, sells it back to ordinary Palestinians that exorbit

505
00:27:54,160 --> 00:27:56,960
Speaker 7: in prices. Because there's some economists to point out the

506
00:27:57,040 --> 00:27:59,800
Speaker 7: real problem is not a shortage of food, it's the

507
00:28:00,240 --> 00:28:03,960
Speaker 7: of food in Gaza, and that's why they're suffering. Just

508
00:28:04,000 --> 00:28:08,280
Speaker 7: as the whole thing, all the suffering Gaza is the

509
00:28:08,320 --> 00:28:09,440
Speaker 7: fault of Hamas.

510
00:28:09,119 --> 00:28:11,439
Speaker 4: Because they started this show. They refuse to give it up.

511
00:28:11,480 --> 00:28:13,880
Speaker 4: They refuse to see they refuse.

512
00:28:13,640 --> 00:28:16,160
Speaker 7: To lay down their arms and surrender, and they refuse

513
00:28:16,240 --> 00:28:19,159
Speaker 7: to give up the hostages. And they've also been seeking

514
00:28:19,200 --> 00:28:23,399
Speaker 7: to sabotage the Gaza Humanitarian Foundation, which was founded by

515
00:28:23,440 --> 00:28:27,040
Speaker 7: the Trump administration and Israel in order to bypass the

516
00:28:27,119 --> 00:28:31,280
Speaker 7: uent so food could go to ordinary people and ordinary

517
00:28:31,280 --> 00:28:35,120
Speaker 7: Palestinians in Gaza, and Hamas has been doing everything they

518
00:28:35,200 --> 00:28:37,920
Speaker 7: can to obstruct it to ensure that that food doesn't

519
00:28:37,960 --> 00:28:42,560
Speaker 7: get to to ordinary Palestinians. So all this tsunami of

520
00:28:42,600 --> 00:28:47,160
Speaker 7: propaganda and causing so many Americans, so many people around

521
00:28:47,240 --> 00:28:51,959
Speaker 7: the world for European governments to condemn Israel. This is

522
00:28:52,000 --> 00:28:56,680
Speaker 7: they're playing right into Hamasa's hands. They started the war,

523
00:28:56,800 --> 00:29:01,120
Speaker 7: they started this famine, and they orchestrated it, and anyone

524
00:29:01,360 --> 00:29:06,280
Speaker 7: who pressures is well this next point, the war is

525
00:29:06,320 --> 00:29:07,800
Speaker 7: playing into Hamas's hands.

526
00:29:08,600 --> 00:29:11,720
Speaker 2: Sure, and and to and and this goes segues to

527
00:29:11,960 --> 00:29:15,800
Speaker 2: you know, France and a country's calling for a Palestinian state.

528
00:29:16,480 --> 00:29:20,360
Speaker 2: Doesn't that create a perilous situation for the future of

529
00:29:20,400 --> 00:29:25,360
Speaker 2: the whole region where Hamas will get rewarded for killing

530
00:29:25,400 --> 00:29:29,720
Speaker 2: all those people on October seventh and putting babies in ovens, right, Uh,

531
00:29:29,760 --> 00:29:33,040
Speaker 2: they get rewarded with a Palestinian state because they won't

532
00:29:33,040 --> 00:29:36,240
Speaker 2: give back the hostages. Doesn't that's had a terrible message

533
00:29:36,280 --> 00:29:38,680
Speaker 2: anytime they want to do something, they're going to repeat

534
00:29:38,720 --> 00:29:41,000
Speaker 2: the same event we have about three minutes.

535
00:29:41,880 --> 00:29:44,960
Speaker 7: Yeah, of course, of course it's a reward to Hamas

536
00:29:44,960 --> 00:29:49,040
Speaker 7: and then the Belsgarians that support them. It's exactly the

537
00:29:49,080 --> 00:29:51,800
Speaker 7: wrong message descended them when they should be being told

538
00:29:52,280 --> 00:29:54,680
Speaker 7: stop the war and then you could we can talk

539
00:29:54,720 --> 00:29:58,600
Speaker 7: about peace, get rid of terrorism, get rid of Hamas.

540
00:29:59,160 --> 00:30:02,040
Speaker 7: But you know, this plays into the entire you know,

541
00:30:02,160 --> 00:30:05,200
Speaker 7: Palestinians are thought to have no agency. You know, nobody

542
00:30:05,240 --> 00:30:08,600
Speaker 7: gives them credit for making any decisions about themselves or

543
00:30:09,040 --> 00:30:12,640
Speaker 7: or their own fate, and instead it's all put on Israel.

544
00:30:14,200 --> 00:30:17,800
Speaker 7: But let's also understand something fundamental about this. Talk about

545
00:30:17,800 --> 00:30:22,440
Speaker 7: a Palestinian state. October seventh happened because there was a

546
00:30:22,480 --> 00:30:26,680
Speaker 7: Palestinian state in Gaza, an independent Palestinian state in all

547
00:30:26,760 --> 00:30:29,880
Speaker 7: but name, ruled by Hamas from two thousand and seven

548
00:30:29,920 --> 00:30:35,120
Speaker 7: to twenty twenty three. Israel withdrew every settlers, soldier, and

549
00:30:35,200 --> 00:30:38,720
Speaker 7: settlement from Gaza in two thousand and five, it was

550
00:30:38,760 --> 00:30:41,920
Speaker 7: taken over by Hamas in two thousand and seven they

551
00:30:42,000 --> 00:30:45,480
Speaker 7: ruled it. That's what happens when you give the Palestinians

552
00:30:45,640 --> 00:30:48,680
Speaker 7: an independent state, it becomes a terror base. You know,

553
00:30:48,720 --> 00:30:50,600
Speaker 7: they could have turned it, as Trump has said, they

554
00:30:50,600 --> 00:30:54,400
Speaker 7: could have turned it into Singapore or Dubai. Instead, they

555
00:30:54,400 --> 00:30:56,840
Speaker 7: built the equivalent of the New York City subway system

556
00:30:56,920 --> 00:31:00,280
Speaker 7: underneath it to store weapons and to make get a

557
00:31:00,320 --> 00:31:03,920
Speaker 7: fortress and to serve as a base for attacking Israel.

558
00:31:04,360 --> 00:31:08,200
Speaker 7: They have no interest in peace. Their only interest is

559
00:31:08,240 --> 00:31:11,600
Speaker 7: in it in a war, a genocidal war to destroy

560
00:31:11,720 --> 00:31:15,480
Speaker 7: Israel and the genocide of the Jewish people. That's what's

561
00:31:15,520 --> 00:31:20,440
Speaker 7: at stake here, and everybody, whether they're European governments, recklessly

562
00:31:20,480 --> 00:31:24,360
Speaker 7: playing to their own Islamist and Marxist. You know, voters

563
00:31:24,920 --> 00:31:29,280
Speaker 7: or even American Jews here in the United States who

564
00:31:29,320 --> 00:31:34,160
Speaker 7: are criticizing Israel, they're playing into Hamas's hands.

565
00:31:34,240 --> 00:31:39,320
Speaker 1: It's despicable. Yeah, it is, Jonathan.

566
00:31:40,400 --> 00:31:43,960
Speaker 2: So is there any chance in one minute, tell us

567
00:31:44,200 --> 00:31:47,280
Speaker 2: any chance Trump gets a Nobel Peace Prize like Obama did,

568
00:31:47,320 --> 00:31:51,360
Speaker 2: who didn't do anything to deserve it.

569
00:31:51,360 --> 00:31:52,560
Speaker 4: It's kind of a straight line.

570
00:31:52,640 --> 00:31:56,040
Speaker 7: Well Trump, Let's say Trump deserves he deserved a Nobel

571
00:31:56,080 --> 00:31:58,640
Speaker 7: Peace Prize for what he did in twenty twenty with

572
00:31:58,680 --> 00:32:02,959
Speaker 7: the Abraham Accords. He deserved it, and he deserves it

573
00:32:02,960 --> 00:32:06,760
Speaker 7: for his efforts to spread peace. Even now he has

574
00:32:07,160 --> 00:32:09,040
Speaker 7: you know, you and I have that as much chance

575
00:32:09,080 --> 00:32:11,960
Speaker 7: of winning the Nobel Peace Prize as President Trump, which

576
00:32:11,960 --> 00:32:14,280
Speaker 7: just shows the Nobel you know, they'll never give it

577
00:32:14,280 --> 00:32:15,880
Speaker 7: to him for the same reason they gave it to

578
00:32:15,880 --> 00:32:17,240
Speaker 7: Obama for doing nothing.

579
00:32:18,440 --> 00:32:21,360
Speaker 4: It's it's a joke. Nobody should care about it.

580
00:32:22,880 --> 00:32:26,760
Speaker 7: You know, Prime Minister Natina who nominated President Trump for the.

581
00:32:26,680 --> 00:32:28,000
Speaker 4: Nobel Peace Prize.

582
00:32:28,120 --> 00:32:31,520
Speaker 7: It's a nice gesture of friendship, but it you know,

583
00:32:31,760 --> 00:32:35,320
Speaker 7: let's let's be honest. This is not something that serious

584
00:32:35,360 --> 00:32:38,640
Speaker 7: people should worry about, right.

00:34:03,000 --> 00:34:04,960
Speaker 2: by American factory workers.

615
00:34:06,080 --> 00:34:08,960
Speaker 8: This is an extraordinary time for all of us to

616
00:34:09,040 --> 00:34:13,200
Speaker 8: be in this mission. The mission is not only a MAGA,

617
00:34:13,400 --> 00:34:17,000
Speaker 8: but maha right. And we've been in this business for

618
00:34:17,160 --> 00:34:19,359
Speaker 8: maybe three and a half four years, some of us

619
00:34:19,440 --> 00:34:23,480
Speaker 8: maybe longer. We are an American manufacturer. We did the

620
00:34:23,520 --> 00:34:27,080
Speaker 8: deep dive. We found an American manufacturer that's been doing

621
00:34:27,440 --> 00:34:33,080
Speaker 8: business for forty years. And it's a discount club membership,

622

653
00:36:20,600 --> 00:36:24,240
Speaker 2: events in New York City were so heartbreaking this past week,

654
00:36:24,680 --> 00:36:27,200
Speaker 2: with an off duty cop getting killed, a twenty seven

655
00:36:27,280 --> 00:36:31,719
Speaker 2: year old you know, and another forty three year old

656
00:36:31,880 --> 00:36:36,520
Speaker 2: from Blackstone and another security guard killed.

657
00:36:37,200 --> 00:36:38,440
Speaker 1: Very very sad stuff.

658
00:36:38,480 --> 00:36:42,120
Speaker 2: But the New York population is resilient and I spent

659
00:36:42,239 --> 00:36:45,640
Speaker 2: time on the street talking with them, people who were there,

660
00:36:46,040 --> 00:36:49,640
Speaker 2: people who heard the gunshots, people whose family worked in

661
00:36:49,680 --> 00:36:52,320
Speaker 2: the building and may have left fifteen or an hour before.

662
00:36:52,680 --> 00:36:56,680
Speaker 2: You know, so really really moving stuff. Check out these

663
00:36:56,719 --> 00:36:58,879
Speaker 2: interviews with the great people of New York.

664
00:37:09,440 --> 00:37:10,239
Speaker 1: You work him in hand.

665
00:37:10,440 --> 00:37:12,799
Speaker 2: I do right up the blocking. You know, anybody worked

666
00:37:12,800 --> 00:37:13,799
Speaker 2: at three forty five part?

667
00:37:13,920 --> 00:37:17,080
Speaker 1: My wife really, yes, was she in the building at

668
00:37:17,080 --> 00:37:17,399
Speaker 1: the time.

669
00:37:17,600 --> 00:37:20,040
Speaker 2: We were very lucky we left about an hour before

670
00:37:20,040 --> 00:37:20,680
Speaker 2: everything happened.

671
00:37:20,760 --> 00:37:24,319
Speaker 1: God, wow, still shaking out, that's extraordinary.

672
00:37:24,360 --> 00:37:26,480
Speaker 10: So I was talking with somebody and all of a

673
00:37:26,520 --> 00:37:29,120
Speaker 10: sudden I heard bang, bang, bang, And then I said

674
00:37:29,160 --> 00:37:33,239
Speaker 10: to myself, oh, is this a firecracker over? And then

675
00:37:33,320 --> 00:37:36,080
Speaker 10: I saw the police chasing down.

676
00:37:36,200 --> 00:37:38,239
Speaker 2: Do you see him walk across the plaza with the

677
00:37:38,320 --> 00:37:39,800
Speaker 2: right I didn't that, I didn't.

678
00:37:39,960 --> 00:37:42,480
Speaker 1: I mean, so you heard the shots and then you went.

679
00:37:42,600 --> 00:37:45,680
Speaker 10: Shots and the police in that part I heard around

680
00:37:45,960 --> 00:37:48,799
Speaker 10: six thirty seven thirty five, around around that time.

681
00:37:49,120 --> 00:37:49,359
Speaker 1: Wow.

682
00:37:49,480 --> 00:37:51,440
Speaker 10: Yeah, I did not see him go. But when I

683
00:37:51,480 --> 00:37:54,239
Speaker 10: saw in the television, I was very puzzled. I mean

684
00:37:54,560 --> 00:37:59,120
Speaker 10: he was able to just walk in carrying it without

685
00:37:59,160 --> 00:38:02,280
Speaker 10: anybody seeing and saying anything.

686
00:38:02,480 --> 00:38:04,600
Speaker 1: It's a similar layout to many office buildings.

687
00:38:04,640 --> 00:38:07,640
Speaker 10: And yes, yes, because I've been through other other places.

688
00:38:07,800 --> 00:38:11,480
Speaker 10: In fact, my son worked over there and I have

689
00:38:11,600 --> 00:38:13,520
Speaker 10: to go in and I have to give a lot

690
00:38:13,560 --> 00:38:14,759
Speaker 10: of tell him to come down.

691
00:38:14,800 --> 00:38:16,680
Speaker 1: I'm not going to bother to go in. There's too

692
00:38:16,719 --> 00:38:18,520
Speaker 1: much security. Just come down and.

693
00:38:18,560 --> 00:38:20,480
Speaker 2: Know how long have you been in New York City

694
00:38:21,760 --> 00:38:23,560

00:38:23,600 --> 00:38:25,840
Speaker 2: share any thoughts on the shooting yesterday in the building.

696
00:38:25,880 --> 00:38:28,600
Speaker 1: It's very crazy. You know, where are you from? What

Speaker 9: Yeah, from the West coast.

702
00:38:36,680 --> 00:38:38,560

00:38:38,719 --> 00:38:42,000
Speaker 1: that especially no, never working in office building.

704

Speaker 1: When did you learn about what happened? Maybe about I

708
00:38:53,680 --> 00:38:55,200
Speaker 1: don't know. We heard a lot of sirens, it was

Speaker 1: like a lot going on. I was in the city. Yeah,

721
00:39:22,040 --> 00:39:24,640
Speaker 1: Do you feel safe on the subways? Do you avoid

722
00:39:24,760 --> 00:39:26,359
Speaker 1: certain times? What do you think?

723
00:39:26,640 --> 00:39:27,520
Speaker 2: No, I feel safe.

Speaker 1: all right? Thanks today.

731
00:39:39,360 --> 00:39:42,200
Speaker 2: So we're outside here at three forty five Park Avenue.

732
00:39:42,280 --> 00:39:43,960
Speaker 1: Yesterday's events were just incredible.

733
00:39:44,400 --> 00:39:47,959
Speaker 2: We have a RAV viewer here and RAF fan Neil

734
00:39:47,960 --> 00:39:49,320
Speaker 2: bagoshin from Rhode Island.

Speaker 1: How are you, sir? Very good? Thank you? Oh my god.

736
00:39:52,239 --> 00:39:54,840
Speaker 1: So this is awful, right, excellent tragedy.

737
00:39:55,000 --> 00:39:57,040
Speaker 2: They just put boards up in front of the bullet

738
00:39:57,040 --> 00:39:58,360
Speaker 2: holes and the doors today.

739
00:39:58,520 --> 00:40:00,000
Speaker 1: Were you in the area yesterday?

740
00:40:00,200 --> 00:40:03,040
Speaker 2: I walked through here forty five minutes before it happened,

741
00:40:03,200 --> 00:40:05,400
Speaker 2: and then I drove through here in a cab fifteen

742
00:40:05,440 --> 00:40:07,480
Speaker 2: minutes after it happened, and I.

743
00:40:07,520 --> 00:40:08,600
Speaker 1: Witnessed the response.

744
00:40:08,719 --> 00:40:11,759
Speaker 2: And I was here in nineteen ninety three during the

745
00:40:11,800 --> 00:40:14,719
Speaker 2: first Wild Trade Center bombing. The response to this was

746
00:40:14,840 --> 00:40:19,000
Speaker 2: larger than that. They were coming from all over the place. Wow, yeah, wow,

747
00:40:19,239 --> 00:40:22,759
Speaker 2: especially with an officer down at SWAT came in right.

748
00:40:23,760 --> 00:40:24,440
Speaker 1: Just incredible.

749
00:40:24,440 --> 00:40:27,279
Speaker 2: You don't expect this type of crime in New York

750
00:40:27,360 --> 00:40:32,880
Speaker 2: City right now. Tourism, you've got subway crime, you've got homelessness,

751
00:40:33,280 --> 00:40:36,279
Speaker 2: rapes are up twenty percent. But this is a little

752
00:40:36,280 --> 00:40:39,080
Speaker 2: bit unique, right absolutely, And for him to do this

753
00:40:39,160 --> 00:40:41,920
Speaker 2: in broad daylight, with that kind of walked right around

754
00:40:41,920 --> 00:40:44,239
Speaker 2: the plastic he parked right over here, walked a block

755
00:40:44,320 --> 00:40:45,799
Speaker 2: and a half I think, with.

756
00:40:46,480 --> 00:40:48,680
Speaker 1: His rifle and walked right in right.

757
00:40:48,960 --> 00:40:51,000
Speaker 2: Yes, And I think I think one of the key

758
00:40:51,040 --> 00:40:53,879
Speaker 2: things that I would I would hope they would start

759
00:40:53,880 --> 00:40:57,760
Speaker 2: to focus more on lots of these mass shooters. There

760
00:40:57,840 --> 00:41:01,759
Speaker 2: are pharmaceuticals involved. They don't consider the side effects of

761
00:41:01,760 --> 00:41:04,719
Speaker 2: those pharmaceuticals, the psychosomatic effects, And.

762
00:41:04,680 --> 00:41:06,920
Speaker 1: There have been public figures that have raised that question.

763
00:41:07,280 --> 00:41:09,959
Speaker 2: I question it all the time, and I think psychotrophic

764
00:41:10,239 --> 00:41:12,319
Speaker 2: drugs companies absolutely.

765
00:41:11,800 --> 00:41:14,600
Speaker 1: Could be This is still open. We'll have to see

766
00:41:14,840 --> 00:41:17,600
Speaker 1: it's what the real motives were, you know.

767
00:41:17,719 --> 00:41:20,160
Speaker 2: And and if he had a traumatic brain injury and

768
00:41:20,200 --> 00:41:22,120
Speaker 2: he didn't play in the NFL, why is he so

769
00:41:22,160 --> 00:41:25,279
Speaker 2: mad at the NFL? So, I mean, there's so many things, right,

770
00:41:25,320 --> 00:41:27,360
Speaker 2: but he did leave a note right talking about I

771
00:41:27,400 --> 00:41:30,320
Speaker 2: think it was Terry Long's death who drank Andy Freeze

772
00:41:30,320 --> 00:41:36,239
Speaker 2: and committed suicide back in the day because of the CTEs, right, right, absolutely,

773
00:41:36,719 --> 00:41:40,040
Speaker 2: how long you've been watching Real America's Voice years years now?

774
00:41:40,200 --> 00:41:41,520
Speaker 1: That several years?

775
00:41:41,600 --> 00:41:44,759
Speaker 2: Yeah, probibly going back to their inception. Actually, what do

776
00:41:44,760 --> 00:41:46,200
Speaker 2: you like the most about it?

777
00:41:46,200 --> 00:41:46,799
Speaker 1: It's all good.

778
00:41:47,280 --> 00:41:51,200
Speaker 2: It's actually raw news, it's refreshing news, it's honest news.

779
00:41:51,840 --> 00:41:54,520
Speaker 2: So it's a break from the mainstream, which I've come

780
00:41:54,560 --> 00:41:57,880
Speaker 2: to despise. And we're in touch with the people, right absolutely,

781
00:41:58,280 --> 00:41:59,680

Speaker 11: And when I was driving, the alerts went off in

846
00:44:54,800 --> 00:44:59,000
Speaker 11: my phone and when I saw police officer shot, it

847
00:44:59,160 --> 00:45:02,600
Speaker 11: said because I've had a lot of police officers play

848
00:45:02,640 --> 00:45:05,680
Speaker 11: for me. I had one that became the chief of

849
00:45:05,680 --> 00:45:09,160
Speaker 11: police the Suffolk County Police Commission. He actually was the

850
00:45:09,360 --> 00:45:12,760
Speaker 11: person that caught the gilgl killed up in Loo.

851
00:45:12,920 --> 00:45:14,320
Speaker 1: But you know, I have a big.

852
00:45:14,120 --> 00:45:16,880
Speaker 11: Thing for law enforcement, and you know, I've been unfortunate

853
00:45:16,880 --> 00:45:17,759
Speaker 11: in the last five years.

854
00:45:17,760 --> 00:45:19,160
Speaker 1: I've had two players shot and.

855
00:45:19,160 --> 00:45:21,799
Speaker 11: Killed a fourteen year old in a park, and I've

856
00:45:21,840 --> 00:45:23,120
Speaker 11: had two parents shot and killed.

857
00:45:23,120 --> 00:45:25,720
Speaker 2: What's the tenor of New York these days? The people

858
00:45:25,760 --> 00:45:27,000
Speaker 2: feel safe.

859
00:45:27,400 --> 00:45:31,279
Speaker 11: I mean people will fake the statistics because you can

860
00:45:31,320 --> 00:45:34,040
Speaker 11: make statistics where a two hundred hitter looks like he

861
00:45:34,080 --> 00:45:36,160
Speaker 11: deserves to be in the Baseball Hall of Fame. The

862
00:45:36,239 --> 00:45:39,000
Speaker 11: good people, the good people in New York have to

863
00:45:39,160 --> 00:45:42,200
Speaker 11: great grab the city back. And you know, I'm not

864
00:45:42,280 --> 00:45:46,240
Speaker 11: into politics. I'm into people, but the politicians better stop.

865
00:45:46,800 --> 00:45:49,200
Speaker 2: You know, we have any thoughts about the mayors race.

866
00:45:49,440 --> 00:45:50,480
Speaker 2: Who would you prefer?

867
00:45:51,160 --> 00:45:53,680
Speaker 11: I know, Eric Adams, I think he has to be

868
00:45:53,719 --> 00:45:56,720
Speaker 11: even tougher. I think Curtis Leewer might deserve a chance.

869
00:45:58,160 --> 00:46:00,800
Speaker 11: You know, But Mandani, I mean just when you talk.

870
00:46:01,160 --> 00:46:03,959
Speaker 11: I mean I see kids talk about what I'm gonna

871
00:46:03,960 --> 00:46:05,279
Speaker 11: do to you, I'm gonna do to you, and then

872
00:46:05,280 --> 00:46:07,360
Speaker 11: the next day it becomes a fight, it becomes a

873
00:46:07,360 --> 00:46:08,000
Speaker 11: fist fight.

874
00:46:08,080 --> 00:46:09,120
Speaker 1: And it escalates.

875
00:46:09,120 --> 00:46:11,600
Speaker 11: Well, if he's going to really defund the police, I mean,

876
00:46:12,000 --> 00:46:14,400
Speaker 11: he's going to increase the insanity.

877
00:46:15,040 --> 00:46:17,279
Speaker 2: Well, you know there's legislation in New York where I

878
00:46:17,320 --> 00:46:20,399
Speaker 2: like the police get docksed that you know, they want

879
00:46:20,440 --> 00:46:24,399
Speaker 2: ice officers to take off their mass and reveal their identities.

880
00:46:25,200 --> 00:46:27,560
Speaker 2: There's a lot of things. The Bail Reform of twenty

881
00:46:27,680 --> 00:46:30,080
Speaker 2: nineteen that Cuoma put in. There's a lot of things

882
00:46:30,080 --> 00:46:31,719
Speaker 2: that make the cops job tougher in.

883
00:46:31,640 --> 00:46:32,200
Speaker 1: New York right now.

884
00:46:32,280 --> 00:46:35,759
Speaker 11: Yeah, Well, one of my assistant coaches just retired. He

885
00:46:35,800 --> 00:46:39,160
Speaker 11: was a police policeman, and he said this to me.

886
00:46:39,800 --> 00:46:42,000
Speaker 11: He goes, Ron, if the bullet comes out of the

887
00:46:42,040 --> 00:46:45,799
Speaker 11: purpse gun before it comes out of my gun. My

888
00:46:45,880 --> 00:46:48,040
Speaker 11: wife is a widow and my four children don't.

889
00:46:47,840 --> 00:46:48,320
Speaker 1: Have a father.

890
00:46:48,600 --> 00:46:53,040
Speaker 11: So it's very, very hard to anticipate somebody reaching in

891
00:46:53,080 --> 00:46:55,280
Speaker 11: and pull in or you don't know what they're doing

892
00:46:55,360 --> 00:47:00,480
Speaker 11: so until you walk in their steps, Yeah, don't.

893
00:47:00,719 --> 00:47:02,480
Speaker 1: Do you know anybody who works in this building?

894
00:47:02,560 --> 00:47:02,680
Speaker 2: Oh?

895
00:47:02,719 --> 00:47:04,320
Speaker 11: Well, I know a lot of people in the NFL,

896
00:47:04,880 --> 00:47:06,960
Speaker 11: you know, so you know, I know people that do

897
00:47:07,120 --> 00:47:07,880
Speaker 11: NFL films.

898
00:47:07,920 --> 00:47:10,080
Speaker 1: Looks like that might have been as ultimate target but

899
00:47:10,160 --> 00:47:11,760
Speaker 1: went the wrong way. Maybe right.

900
00:47:11,920 --> 00:47:14,879
Speaker 11: You know what? The same thing is that society has

901
00:47:14,920 --> 00:47:18,200
Speaker 11: gotten to the point where what we saw yesterday used

902
00:47:18,239 --> 00:47:19,600
Speaker 11: to happen once every ten years.

903
00:47:19,640 --> 00:47:21,560
Speaker 1: Now it seems like it happens once every ten minutes.

904
00:47:21,800 --> 00:47:26,160
Speaker 11: Why when people show you who they are, Yeah, do

905
00:47:26,239 --> 00:47:28,680
Speaker 11: we have to give them another chance and another chance?

906
00:47:28,800 --> 00:47:31,719
Speaker 11: If they show you their murderers, they show you their criminals.

907
00:47:32,120 --> 00:47:34,160
Speaker 11: I got two words for them and are not happy birthday,

908
00:47:34,239 --> 00:47:34,920
Speaker 11: and they're victims.

909
00:47:35,040 --> 00:47:35,839
Speaker 1: I can't come back.

910
00:47:36,040 --> 00:47:40,040
Speaker 2: Amazing resilient people in New York through terrorism, Subway crime,

911
00:47:40,480 --> 00:47:43,480
Speaker 2: rapes are of twenty percent, sixty five percent just last week.

912
00:47:43,600 --> 00:47:44,840
Speaker 1: Rapes are up in New York City.

913
00:47:45,320 --> 00:47:48,200
Speaker 2: It's out of control still, so don't believe they crime

914
00:47:48,280 --> 00:47:50,799
Speaker 2: numbers even though murders and shootings are down in New York.

915
00:47:51,320 --> 00:47:53,319
Speaker 2: But the great people in New York will get through it.

916
00:47:53,600 --> 00:47:55,760
Speaker 2: Hopefully we'll have some new leadership at some point.

917
00:47:56,360 --> 00:47:58,200
Speaker 1: Thank you for watching Breaking Point. That's all we have

918
00:47:58,320 --> 00:47:58,640
Speaker 1: for today.

919
00:47:58,640 --> 00:48:02,320
Speaker 7: I see you next time and
