Speaker 1: We have an assault of Lee Zelden, an assault on
Speaker 1: the Republican contender for governor in New York. Some are
Speaker 1: even calling an attempted assassination by a drunk maniac who
Speaker 1: had a edged weapon in his hand as he attacked
Speaker 1: Lee on stage. Got some updates for you on that case,
Speaker 1: and for anybody with a familiarity with the bail reform
Speaker 1: law in New York, you won't be surprised at the
Speaker 1: craziness that has ensued. We'll get into that. Plus two
Speaker 1: masks work Japan a case study. Give you the latest
Speaker 1: update from the country that is perhaps the highest mask
Speaker 1: highest mask country in the entire world, at least for
Speaker 1: a large country, and what's going on there. Plus the
Speaker 1: Libs they want you to sweat through your clothing and
Speaker 1: eat bugs peasants to save the planet. They're actually writing
Speaker 1: stuff over at CNN Opinion about this. I've got some
Speaker 1: thoughts for you on that, and also don't have a
Speaker 1: fifteen foot snake as a pet. Important important safety tip
Speaker 1: on this Friday for everybody. Got a news story out

Speaker 1: get it, got to see it. So we have a
Speaker 1: gubernatorial race in New York between Kathy Hookel, who is
Speaker 1: so dumb and show inept that it is. It is
Speaker 1: just amazing. Actually, it's like a performance piece. You just
Speaker 1: want to listen to this woman say the dumb things
Speaker 1: and just read off the prompter with this look in
Speaker 1: her eyes of never having comprehended anything of any importance.
Speaker 1: But she's the governor because Cuomo was too grabby grabby.
Speaker 1: He should have been out of office for sending COVID
Speaker 1: positive seniors back in the nursing homes on order of
Speaker 1: the state as well as covering that up. Probably should
Speaker 1: have gone to prison for that. But anyway, while the
Speaker 1: Cuomo brand, it's been a rough time. Let me explain
Speaker 1: what I mean by rough It means my brother was
Speaker 1: making millions at CNN and now he's trying to be
Speaker 1: a fireman in Long Island. Except he said it was
Speaker 1: too much work. And I may run in for Attorney
Speaker 1: General of the State of New York, except nobody wants me.
Speaker 1: Actually Democrats want me because the sheep and they'll vote
Speaker 1: for anybody. So that's the Cuomo update for you. He's gone,
Speaker 1: he's no longer in the mix. And you have Hokel
Speaker 1: and Zelden. No. Zelden is a congressman from Long Island,
Speaker 1: and I've talked to Lee Zelden a bit, and you know,
Speaker 1: he's a good guy and he would do a good
Speaker 1: job I think as governor of the State of New York,
Speaker 1: certainly far better than Kathy Hokel. And he was up
Speaker 1: on stage talking about bail reform, which has been a
Speaker 1: disaster for the State of New York. Because you know,
Speaker 1: you actually do want when people are arrested. This may
Speaker 1: be a shock to the Libs. You generally want it
Speaker 1: to be a somewhat unpleasant experience, you know, within limits here,
Speaker 1: but you know it's not supposed to be like, oh,
Speaker 1: you just stole a thousand dollars of stuff. Well you're
Speaker 1: some Hershey's kisses and a pat on the back. Show
Speaker 1: up in court in a few weeks where we won't
Speaker 1: even give you a sentence. Oh okay, I got to
Speaker 1: steal a thousand dollars, I get a pad on the back,
Speaker 1: and you know, a quick processing not being held for
Speaker 1: a few days, no time to think about it. Look
Speaker 1: at this web. Remember when you were in grammar school
Speaker 1: we call a primary school or grammar school. Aloys your
Speaker 1: different things. Grammar schools what most people say, right, yeah,
Speaker 1: in grammar school. You know what would they give you
Speaker 1: when you're a little kid, when you were naughty? Give
Speaker 1: you a time out? Now that means that you're not
Speaker 1: having as much fun. Your freedom has been taken away,
Speaker 1: temporarily freedom to do whatever you want. But it also
Speaker 1: usually makes you reflect a little bit. Why am I
Speaker 1: in time out? Why am I the rest of the
Speaker 1: kids are having a water gun fight? I'm sure those
Speaker 1: are bad now, because water guns, even if they're pink
Speaker 1: and look like lasers, so scary fires. So you know whatever.
Speaker 1: But the point is, if you're a dodge Balls, gonna
Speaker 1: say Dodgeball can't do that anymore either to Darwinian, what
Speaker 1: about the kids who always get hit first and dodge
Speaker 1: ball they never get over it. But you get what
Speaker 1: I'm saying. They make you sit on the side because
Speaker 1: you were naughty. If you still if you stole you know,
Speaker 1: a couple of Susie's cookies from your classmate. You know,
Speaker 1: they tell you to go sit on the side. So
Speaker 1: you think about what you've done, and so that it's
Speaker 1: trying to reinforce don't do this. And the problem we
Speaker 1: have with the bail reform law is that it's essentially, oh,
Speaker 1: you get arrested, you get processed, and then you just
Speaker 1: get out. You just get out. Including in this case.
Speaker 1: That is what I'm thinking about. This a guy, now,
Speaker 1: he had an edged weapon. It was kind of a
Speaker 1: weird looking edged weapon. I've seen the It almost looks
Speaker 1: like a cigar chopper or something he had in his hand.
Speaker 1: The guy's drunk, so look, it's an assault. It's disgusting.
Speaker 1: It never should have happened. He's a politician up on
Speaker 1: stage This is a major, you know, violation of what
Speaker 1: we can accept in our society, and it does go
Speaker 1: to the core of whether we can even have politicians
Speaker 1: feeling safe up on stage. But people are saying it
Speaker 1: was an attempted assassination. I mean it was. It was
Speaker 1: certainly an assault on a politician on stage. Assassination might
Speaker 1: be might be going a little bit further than I
Speaker 1: think what I've seen on the video, although I'm open
Speaker 1: to being told that I'm wrong on this, but at
Speaker 1: the point it's it's completely unacceptable and a real violation.
Speaker 1: Even if it was just a felony assault, then they're
Speaker 1: they're charging felony assault, they're not charging attempted murder. So
Speaker 1: I just want to note, you know, people are saying
Speaker 1: as an attempted assassination the guy who showed up with
Speaker 1: a gun and said I want to kill Cavtall, which
Speaker 1: we know just happened a few weeks ago. Isn't it interesting?
Speaker 1: A conservative justice, a conservative running for governor, but all
Speaker 1: the political violence comes from the right. Interesting. Just take
Speaker 1: note of that one for a second. You have a gun,
Speaker 1: you say you want to go kill a Supreme Court justice,
Speaker 1: that that does feel like you are somebody who is
Speaker 1: en route to an assassination. You're a drunk, imbecile who
Speaker 1: gets on stage, assaults a member, assaults a member of
Speaker 1: Congress who's running for governor. You've committed felony assault. Is
Speaker 1: it an assassination attempt? I mean, I've seen the video
Speaker 1: many times. I'm not sure that that. If it is,
Speaker 1: then he should be charged with attempted murder. So just
Speaker 1: for anyone who saying it was an assassination attempt, I'll
Speaker 1: just point out, well, then the charge should be attempted murder.
Speaker 1: So are we going to get to that, which means
Speaker 1: this guy could spend twenty to life in prison depending
Speaker 1: on the circumstances. So let's just get though to what
Speaker 1: happened with the guy who assaulted him. He's already out, folks,
Speaker 1: he was out within ninety minutes. So think about what
Speaker 1: this is. In this day in New York, you can
Speaker 1: be a lunatic with an edged weapon who assaults a
Speaker 1: gubernatorial candidate on stage in full view of hundreds of people.
Speaker 1: Broad Daylight televised the whole thing. You will be out
Speaker 1: walking around, going to the store to pick up a
Speaker 1: sandwich in less than two hours. Does that feel like
Speaker 1: a good idea to anybody? Does that seem like a
Speaker 1: sensible policy, especially given that what do we keep seeing
Speaker 1: Starbucks closing down the stores, all these different people, all
Speaker 1: these individuals coming forward to say that they are or
Speaker 1: the companies coming forward as well to say they're shutting
Speaker 1: down their businesses because of just the rampant criminality that's
Speaker 1: going on, just constant assaults and theft and all of
Speaker 1: these things. You have to stop people from doing these things,
Speaker 1: and the state actually is supposed to be the one
Speaker 1: that does that. Otherwise people are gonna start doing it,
Speaker 1: and that's a whole other thing, and that's not what
Speaker 1: we want. So there are a few points here, but
Speaker 1: just the fact that you had to candidate speaking about
Speaker 1: bail reform. He's attacked on stage by a guy with
Speaker 1: a weapon while he's talking about bail reform, and the
Speaker 1: guy who attacks him is out in less than two hours,
Speaker 1: walking around, going to show up, you know, for a
Speaker 1: court in a week or whatever it is. Yeah, that's
Speaker 1: that's what bail reform does. Does that feel like a
Speaker 1: good system to anybody? I mean, maybe maybe the guy
Speaker 1: being held until his until his actual hearing before a
Speaker 1: judge might be a little bit, a little bit more
Speaker 1: appropriate under the circumstances. Give the guy a little time
Speaker 1: to reflect, maybe a little time to cool off, maybe
Speaker 1: a little time to think about what he's done. Guy
Speaker 1: has probably destroyed his life. Um so you know, I
Speaker 1: think that we can all look at the bill reform
Speaker 1: law and realize how crazy this is. A friend of
Speaker 1: mine used to work the disattorney's office for long for
Speaker 1: a long time in New York City just said, this
Speaker 1: is this is sending signals to to the criminals, which
Speaker 1: is that it just feels like a big joke because
Speaker 1: you get out right away. Then then the judge also
Speaker 1: doesn't want to seem too harsh. The whole system is
Speaker 1: skewed toward you know, you get arrested. It's your tenth
Speaker 1: time you're arrested for shoplifting and and simple assault or
Speaker 1: you know, strong arm robbery in a store or something.
Speaker 1: It's a tenth time. Well, you know, maybe the eleventh
Speaker 1: is the one that you're really not going to do.
Speaker 1: And this is what ends up happening, and it's really appalling.
Speaker 1: But this is what democrats. Democrat idea is what they do.
Speaker 1: What they think if your cell phone service is with
Speaker 1: Verizon AT and T or T Mobile. You're paying a
Speaker 1: premium fee every month for data you don't use. Instead
Speaker 1: of paying ninety bucks a month to your current provider,
Speaker 1: switch to pure Talk for your cell service and get talk,
Speaker 1: text and data for just thirty dollars a month. I
Speaker 1: made the switch. You can to. The coverage really is
Speaker 1: that good, The internet and data speeds are that good
Speaker 1: and that consistent. You keep your cell number and your
Speaker 1: own cell phone. The only thing that changes the money
Speaker 1: you save in the company you rely on, and trust me,
Speaker 1: you can rely on pure Talk. If you're ready, join
Speaker 1: me in switching a pure Talk now and you'll get
Speaker 1: a month free. Grab your cell phone and dial pound

Speaker 1: five zero. Say Buck when you are sorry, say Clay
Speaker 1: and Buck. Pardon me, say Clay end Buck, and you'll
Speaker 1: be switching over. And it's fantastic all right now. I
Speaker 1: also have the situation in Japan. To talk to you
Speaker 1: about for a second, Japan is the most compliant when
Speaker 1: it comes to masking. Mass compliant country I think in
Speaker 1: the world, South Korea, Japan, those are probably the two. Right.
Speaker 1: Singapore also, but that's a very very small country, so
Speaker 1: I'm not counting that the same way. Japan's got over
Speaker 1: one hundred million people. And here we are, right, here
Speaker 1: is the here's the situation. As of today. Yesterday, Japan
Speaker 1: had one hundred and eighty six thousand COVID cases confirmed
Speaker 1: by the government yesterday. I actually I've seen a number
Speaker 1: that was even a little higher than that. So let's
Speaker 1: say it's just shy at two hundred thousand people getting COVID.
Speaker 1: Now put us They're gonna say, oh, but get the
Speaker 1: hospital zations. The buck starts saying all stuff. No, no no, no, no, no,
Speaker 1: Hold on a second, they're all masked. How can the
Speaker 1: country that is the best at masking have two hundred
Speaker 1: thousand cases in a day in the summertime? Does anyone
Speaker 1: want to answer that one for me? Riddle me that, folks,
Speaker 1: anyone want to try that one on? But but they're
Speaker 1: not masking up hard enough. It didn't double mask triple mask.
Speaker 1: Why won't they triple mask? You see what's going on
Speaker 1: in New Zealand. New Zealand is having hospitalizations and debts
Speaker 1: from COVID skyrocketing. The lockdown countries that truly lockdown, we
Speaker 1: never really locked it. We did the dumbest imaginable thing,
Speaker 1: had no chance of working. Partial lockdowns. Let's make sure
Speaker 1: everyone gets COVID, and we're gonna allow the you know,
Speaker 1: the free movement back and forth of people for the
Speaker 1: most part, all over the country. And we're gonna set
Speaker 1: up national guard at airports to like look at people. Oh,
Speaker 1: that'll scare the virus. But we're not actually even gonna lockdown,
Speaker 1: so everyone's gonna get the virus anyway. But we're gonna
Speaker 1: shut down parts of the economy randomly, gonna haphazardly to
Speaker 1: do economic damage to people. We're gonna spend trillions of
Speaker 1: dollars to create fake economic prosperity or fake economic stability,
Speaker 1: and we're gonna do all that so we can have
Speaker 1: everyone get COVID anyway. That's what we did, and we
Speaker 1: really we had the dumbest possible plan, at least in Australia,
Speaker 1: where they went full totalitarian lunatic. You could say, well,
Speaker 1: they did not. They refused to allow anybody in or
Speaker 1: out for like over a year. So if you're not
Speaker 1: allowed to go to the country and it's an island
Speaker 1: and they don't have a lot of illegal immigration, you
Speaker 1: could say, well, yeah, but what was the problem that
Speaker 1: all of us are saying along? At some point you
Speaker 1: probably have to go back to being a normal country.
Speaker 1: And Australia's bet was we're gonna we're gonna locked we're
Speaker 1: locked down odd and we're gonna stop everyone from getting
Speaker 1: the COVID. It's kind of close Australian acces. It's really hard, actually,
Speaker 1: it's like not easy. Everyone thinks, you Americans, we think
Speaker 1: we can do it, and then it sounds like we're
Speaker 1: doing kind of a British accent from somebody who's like
Speaker 1: already a few a few guinnesses in the hole. So anyway,
Speaker 1: they figured they're gonna they're gonna look down. And however
Speaker 1: they found themselves still getting the COVID because now they
Speaker 1: bet that the vaccines would stop all of it. The
Speaker 1: vaccines didn't stop at all, So we know that that
Speaker 1: didn't work. So what else do we have to think
Speaker 1: about that well, the masks, the masks stop it. Nope, nope,
Speaker 1: they did not imagine this if masks even worked, like
Speaker 1: thirty at a thirty percent reduction level. You know, you
Speaker 1: never hear the numbers, right, if they worked, don't you
Speaker 1: think you would be told all the time thirty percent?
Speaker 1: That wouldn't even be great. I mean that still means
Speaker 1: everyone's gonna get COVID anyway, just means a little bit slower.
Speaker 1: But the real data, if you look at it, they
Speaker 1: think that for influenza using N ninety five masks and
Speaker 1: medical laboratory settings or I'm sorry for for measles, highly
Speaker 1: contagious respiratory virus in a laboratory set, but a real
Speaker 1: world setting, they think that a properly fitted at N
Speaker 1: ninety five mask reduced the risk of getting measles or
Speaker 1: something like fifteen percent. Oh my gosh, imagine imagine if
Speaker 1: you were selling a birth control that you're like, hey,
Speaker 1: it is fifteen percent effective, you'd be shopping for Father's
Speaker 1: Day cards pretty quickly, or people would be getting them
Speaker 1: for you. I guess you know what I'm saying. So anyway,
Speaker 1: there's that. Oh and I mentioned CNN. I love the
Speaker 1: CNN has an opinion piece up, which is just it's
Speaker 1: symbolic or emblematic of the broader view that they're they're
Speaker 1: now saying that it's so it's super hot, as everyone
Speaker 1: knows in the US and in Europe. I think the
Speaker 1: UK just had its hottest day since you know, the
Speaker 1: time of Henry the eighth or something, or maybe longer
Speaker 1: than that. I just made that up, but it's been
Speaker 1: a long time. And now they're saying that air conditioning
Speaker 1: is bad for the climate, meaning like the global climate.
Speaker 1: So you're supposed to sit there and just just like
Speaker 1: drip in sweat, and you know that that's slow breathing
Speaker 1: you do when it's it's really hot. We're all supposed
Speaker 1: to do that because they think in fifty years the
Speaker 1: global climate will be one degree celsius warmer than it
Speaker 1: is right now. So for the next fifty years, you're
Speaker 1: not supposed to use air conditioning in the summer, according
Speaker 1: to the Libs. Oh and also you should probably eat bugs,
Speaker 1: eat bugs because meat too damaging to the area. We're
Speaker 1: having Burger Day shake shack Friday here in the Freedom Hut, NYC.
Speaker 1: But they want us to be eating bugs, shake shack
Speaker 1: cockroach and cricket day. Not as exciting, not as good. No,
Speaker 1: even if it's deep fried, I'm gonna say no, I'm
Speaker 1: gonna say thumbs down. Oh and I just saw this.
Speaker 1: A state trooper in Pennsylvania was got a call to
Speaker 1: go to a home where someone's fifteen foot python. Okay,
Speaker 1: think about this, folks. A five foot snake isn't Oh
Speaker 1: my god, that's a pretty big snake, especially if it's
Speaker 1: a python. A fifteen foot python looks like it was
Speaker 1: in a movie with Jennifer Lopez fifteen years ago set
Speaker 1: in Brazil called Anaconda. Okay, a fifteen foot long python
Speaker 1: in your home is an invitation to disaster? What do
Speaker 1: we think happened here? It? Remember snakes, you think cats
Speaker 1: don't care about you? I don't know. People are gonna
Speaker 1: argue with that. Snakes only care about you as food,
Speaker 1: like literally food. You are not a source of food.
Speaker 1: You are the food. And the fifteen foot boa constrictor
Speaker 1: wrapped itself around this guy and he was choking him out.
Speaker 1: He called nine one one. Remember the boa constrictor. It's
Speaker 1: so big and strong. He actually couldn't get it off
Speaker 1: him because it's stronger than he is because it's freaking huge,
Speaker 1: and the cop had to show up and blow away.
Speaker 1: He had to put but he had to shoot the
Speaker 1: Boa Constrictor's hand while it was still on the guy.
Speaker 1: Moral of the story, no pet snakes period. I mean
Speaker 1: you could, maybe you could argue with me if it's
Speaker 1: so small that you that your your your toy poodle
Speaker 1: could take it in a one v one okay, but
Speaker 1: no big pet snakes please. Not a good idea evolution.
Speaker 1: They're not our friends, all right, The reptiles are not
Speaker 1: our friends. That's efforted. Everybody, have a great weekend, shield
Speaker 1: hie
