WEBVTT - Goodbye Cuomo

0:00:00.120 --> 0:00:03.120
<v Speaker 1>Thanks to all of you. Eight hundred and nine four one.

0:00:03.160 --> 0:00:05.840
<v Speaker 1>Sean you want to be a part of the program.

0:00:05.920 --> 0:00:09.240
<v Speaker 1>Let's start with our top story of the day, and

0:00:09.400 --> 0:00:16.760
<v Speaker 1>that is Andrew Cuomo announcing his resignation. Is happening earlier today.

0:00:16.880 --> 0:00:20.680
<v Speaker 1>Let's play it. And I love New York and I

0:00:20.840 --> 0:00:26.320
<v Speaker 1>love you, and everything I have ever done has been

0:00:26.360 --> 0:00:30.480
<v Speaker 1>motivated by that love. And I would never want to

0:00:30.520 --> 0:00:35.080
<v Speaker 1>be unhelpful in any way. And I think that, given

0:00:35.080 --> 0:00:40.680
<v Speaker 1>the circumstances, the best way I can help now is

0:00:40.680 --> 0:00:44.959
<v Speaker 1>if I step aside and let government get back to governing.

0:00:45.880 --> 0:00:50.480
<v Speaker 1>And therefore that's what I'll do, because I work for you,

0:00:51.600 --> 0:00:55.280
<v Speaker 1>and doing the right thing is doing the right thing

0:00:55.760 --> 0:01:00.160
<v Speaker 1>for you, because, as we say, it's not about me,

0:01:01.040 --> 0:01:06.640
<v Speaker 1>it's about we. Kathie Hochlan, my Lieutenant Governor, is smart

0:01:06.680 --> 0:01:11.640
<v Speaker 1>and competent. This transition must be seamless. We have a

0:01:11.640 --> 0:01:15.480
<v Speaker 1>lot going on. I'm very worried about the delta variant,

0:01:16.200 --> 0:01:19.440
<v Speaker 1>and so should you be. But she can come up

0:01:19.440 --> 0:01:23.000
<v Speaker 1>to speed quickly, and my resignation will be effective in

0:01:23.040 --> 0:01:28.120
<v Speaker 1>fourteen days. At public events, troopers will often hold doors

0:01:28.319 --> 0:01:34.720
<v Speaker 1>open or guard the doorways when I walk past them.

0:01:34.760 --> 0:01:37.839
<v Speaker 1>I often will give them a grip of the arm,

0:01:37.959 --> 0:01:40.600
<v Speaker 1>a pat on the face, a touch on the stomacher,

0:01:40.680 --> 0:01:44.560
<v Speaker 1>slap on the back. It's my way of saying I

0:01:44.760 --> 0:01:50.360
<v Speaker 1>see you, I appreciate you, and I thank you. I'm

0:01:50.360 --> 0:01:56.080
<v Speaker 1>not comfortable just walking past and ignoring them. Of course,

0:01:56.680 --> 0:02:02.120
<v Speaker 1>usually they are male troopers. In this case, I don't

0:02:02.200 --> 0:02:07.200
<v Speaker 1>remember doing it at all. I didn't do it consciously

0:02:07.720 --> 0:02:12.680
<v Speaker 1>with the female trooper. I did not mean any sexual connotation.

0:02:13.000 --> 0:02:17.280
<v Speaker 1>I did not mean any intimacy by it. I just

0:02:17.440 --> 0:02:23.840
<v Speaker 1>wasn't thinking. It was totally thoughtless in the literal sense

0:02:23.880 --> 0:02:27.920
<v Speaker 1>of the word. But it was also insensitive. It was

0:02:28.040 --> 0:02:33.560
<v Speaker 1>embarrassing to her, and it was disrespectful. It was a mistake,

0:02:34.360 --> 0:02:39.080
<v Speaker 1>plain and simple. I have no other words to explain it.

0:02:40.600 --> 0:02:44.160
<v Speaker 1>I want to personally apologize to her and her family.

0:02:44.560 --> 0:02:48.320
<v Speaker 1>I have the greatest respect for her and for the

0:02:48.400 --> 0:02:54.560
<v Speaker 1>New York State Police. I take. And that was Andrew Cuomo.

0:02:54.639 --> 0:02:58.040
<v Speaker 1>Let me let me let me play one more here,

0:02:58.320 --> 0:03:01.320
<v Speaker 1>and that is Cuomo saying, I take full responsibility for

0:03:01.400 --> 0:03:04.640
<v Speaker 1>my actions. Remember he said it's all false and the

0:03:04.680 --> 0:03:08.200
<v Speaker 1>only reason is is that well, apparently he had no

0:03:08.280 --> 0:03:11.320
<v Speaker 1>friends in the Democratic Party, even in the liberal state

0:03:11.360 --> 0:03:13.799
<v Speaker 1>of New York. There's something behind that, there is an

0:03:13.880 --> 0:03:17.560
<v Speaker 1>untold story. Not really sure it was a New York

0:03:17.600 --> 0:03:19.720
<v Speaker 1>I think it was the New Yorker piece that came out,

0:03:20.280 --> 0:03:24.600
<v Speaker 1>and in that piece, it just came out hours before

0:03:24.840 --> 0:03:29.520
<v Speaker 1>Cuomo resigned, and about pressure that was put on the

0:03:29.600 --> 0:03:34.840
<v Speaker 1>Justice Department by of Obama. I guess at the time

0:03:36.200 --> 0:03:41.720
<v Speaker 1>as it relates to certain issues, and and that everybody

0:03:41.720 --> 0:03:44.840
<v Speaker 1>apparently was uncomfortable with it, and another issues that have

0:03:44.880 --> 0:03:46.920
<v Speaker 1>come up as well. But let's play one more, Cuomo

0:03:47.000 --> 0:03:53.560
<v Speaker 1>cut I take full responsibility for my actions. I have

0:03:53.760 --> 0:03:59.400
<v Speaker 1>been too familiar with people. My sense of humor can

0:03:59.440 --> 0:04:03.840
<v Speaker 1>be in s insitive and off putting. I do hug

0:04:04.360 --> 0:04:11.120
<v Speaker 1>and kiss people casually, women and men. I have done

0:04:11.160 --> 0:04:17.240
<v Speaker 1>it all my life. It's who I've been since I

0:04:17.279 --> 0:04:23.800
<v Speaker 1>can remember. In my mind. I've never crossed the line

0:04:24.080 --> 0:04:31.640
<v Speaker 1>with anyone. But I didn't realize the extent to which

0:04:31.880 --> 0:04:37.960
<v Speaker 1>the line has been redrawn, all right from earlier today.

0:04:38.360 --> 0:04:42.080
<v Speaker 1>None of this to me. So many people, you know,

0:04:42.160 --> 0:04:44.880
<v Speaker 1>getting in touch with the show and Linda and Sweet

0:04:44.880 --> 0:04:48.279
<v Speaker 1>Baby and telling me, and they're reporting back to me

0:04:48.360 --> 0:04:50.760
<v Speaker 1>that they're surprised. I'm not surprised. In the sense that

0:04:51.000 --> 0:04:53.480
<v Speaker 1>one way or another, this was a fad to complete

0:04:53.960 --> 0:04:57.720
<v Speaker 1>and that the real issue that is facing the governor

0:04:57.839 --> 0:05:01.599
<v Speaker 1>is going to be over the Remember in the Age report,

0:05:01.600 --> 0:05:04.800
<v Speaker 1>I talked about criminal laws being broken on a state

0:05:04.880 --> 0:05:09.520
<v Speaker 1>level and a federal level. Even assuming he keeps his

0:05:09.600 --> 0:05:13.000
<v Speaker 1>board and resigns in fourteen days, Andrew Cuomo may not

0:05:13.680 --> 0:05:16.800
<v Speaker 1>be out of the legal woods in any way whatsoever.

0:05:18.200 --> 0:05:20.680
<v Speaker 1>Go back to the Attorney General of New York's report

0:05:21.200 --> 0:05:26.479
<v Speaker 1>on the sexual harassment charges, and you know that it

0:05:26.560 --> 0:05:28.880
<v Speaker 1>was a result of a civil investigation, but it since

0:05:28.960 --> 0:05:34.400
<v Speaker 1>led now to law enforcement officials opening simultaneous criminal investigations

0:05:34.440 --> 0:05:37.960
<v Speaker 1>all over the state with the possibility that Cuomo could

0:05:38.000 --> 0:05:40.679
<v Speaker 1>be charged criminally in all of this. The big question

0:05:40.800 --> 0:05:43.840
<v Speaker 1>is what, if anything, would he be charged with. We've

0:05:43.839 --> 0:05:46.400
<v Speaker 1>gone on with that in great specificity, in detail with

0:05:46.440 --> 0:05:50.039
<v Speaker 1>Greg Jarrett on this program, and it has now led

0:05:50.080 --> 0:05:55.880
<v Speaker 1>to law enforcement officials doing this. On Sunday, the Albany

0:05:55.880 --> 0:05:59.000
<v Speaker 1>County Sheriff, a guy by the name of Craig Apple,

0:05:59.240 --> 0:06:04.080
<v Speaker 1>hinted at a possible result in the case involving this woman,

0:06:04.200 --> 0:06:08.720
<v Speaker 1>Brittany Camiso. Now she was known up until this interview

0:06:08.720 --> 0:06:12.720
<v Speaker 1>with CBS. This weekend as executive assist at number one

0:06:13.120 --> 0:06:16.159
<v Speaker 1>who brought the most serious allegations against the governor, But

0:06:16.240 --> 0:06:20.400
<v Speaker 1>she was not the first person to specifically say that groping, grabbing,

0:06:20.480 --> 0:06:27.200
<v Speaker 1>unwanted touching, etc. Had taken place. Now there's some disagreement.

0:06:27.240 --> 0:06:32.160
<v Speaker 1>Would it be a misdemeanor? Maybe a few misdemeanors couldn't

0:06:32.200 --> 0:06:36.400
<v Speaker 1>mean jail time. Well, if it's a misdemeanor, forcible touching

0:06:36.440 --> 0:06:39.839
<v Speaker 1>allegations could result in a year behind bars. Do I

0:06:39.880 --> 0:06:44.000
<v Speaker 1>think that would happen? Probably not knowing New York as

0:06:44.000 --> 0:06:48.200
<v Speaker 1>well as I do, but anyway, it could possibly be that.

0:06:48.320 --> 0:06:52.360
<v Speaker 1>And then the criminal defense attorney and former Brooklyn prosecutor

0:06:52.400 --> 0:06:56.280
<v Speaker 1>agreeing with the assessment. And but two things happened in

0:06:56.920 --> 0:06:59.880
<v Speaker 1>the last forty eight seventy two hours that tipped the

0:07:00.040 --> 0:07:04.240
<v Speaker 1>balance here. And that was the up till recent up

0:07:04.240 --> 0:07:08.480
<v Speaker 1>till this weekend. Unknown name of the executive assist at

0:07:08.520 --> 0:07:12.120
<v Speaker 1>number one, The interview that was given on sixty on

0:07:12.560 --> 0:07:18.160
<v Speaker 1>CBS rather Brittany Camiso. And you know, when I watched this,

0:07:18.280 --> 0:07:23.720
<v Speaker 1>I just kept saying, Wow, she's extraordinarily articulate, incredible, and

0:07:23.880 --> 0:07:27.480
<v Speaker 1>it was it was beyond compelling. Let me play some

0:07:27.520 --> 0:07:32.160
<v Speaker 1>of the highlights of that interview that took place on CBS.

0:07:33.160 --> 0:07:35.720
<v Speaker 1>I had to go over to the mansion to help

0:07:35.720 --> 0:07:39.040
<v Speaker 1>the governor with a state of the State speech. I

0:07:39.080 --> 0:07:42.120
<v Speaker 1>wasn't there late I would did my final edit, and

0:07:42.240 --> 0:07:44.840
<v Speaker 1>while I was upstairs in the office, the governor said,

0:07:45.560 --> 0:07:49.240
<v Speaker 1>why don't we take a selfie? So his suggestion, yes,

0:07:50.400 --> 0:07:56.720
<v Speaker 1>your phone with my phone. I then felt, while taking

0:07:56.760 --> 0:08:00.400
<v Speaker 1>the selfie, his hand go down my back to my

0:08:00.480 --> 0:08:05.160
<v Speaker 1>butt and he started rubbing it, not sliding it, not

0:08:05.920 --> 0:08:11.360
<v Speaker 1>you know, quickly brushing over it, rubbing my butt and

0:08:11.520 --> 0:08:14.640
<v Speaker 1>did you ask him what are you doing? Well? This

0:08:14.720 --> 0:08:17.480
<v Speaker 1>was while I was taking the selfie. I became so

0:08:17.560 --> 0:08:20.880
<v Speaker 1>nervous that my hands were clearly shaking, and a lot

0:08:20.880 --> 0:08:25.760
<v Speaker 1>of the photos that I was snapping or completely blurry.

0:08:25.920 --> 0:08:28.040
<v Speaker 1>I showed him them and he said, oh, you know

0:08:28.160 --> 0:08:31.080
<v Speaker 1>those aren't you know? Those aren't good. And he said,

0:08:31.080 --> 0:08:33.400
<v Speaker 1>why don't we go sit on the couch and we

0:08:33.440 --> 0:08:35.800
<v Speaker 1>can take a better one. So you said, on the couch,

0:08:36.320 --> 0:08:39.280
<v Speaker 1>I said on the couch because I thought to myself, okay,

0:08:39.520 --> 0:08:42.080
<v Speaker 1>I don't think on the couch that he would have

0:08:42.200 --> 0:08:45.520
<v Speaker 1>a way to just do what he just did. So

0:08:45.600 --> 0:08:50.199
<v Speaker 1>I felt safer actually on the couch, and in the photo,

0:08:50.559 --> 0:08:53.360
<v Speaker 1>you know, I have my arm wrapped around his shoulder,

0:08:54.120 --> 0:08:55.960
<v Speaker 1>you know, almost as if you know, we were taking

0:08:55.960 --> 0:08:59.480
<v Speaker 1>a picture with a buddy, and that is the one

0:08:59.480 --> 0:09:02.000
<v Speaker 1>that has been blurred out, that has been now released

0:09:02.000 --> 0:09:05.360
<v Speaker 1>to the public. So he gets up and he goes

0:09:05.360 --> 0:09:08.800
<v Speaker 1>to give me a hug, and I could tell immediately

0:09:08.840 --> 0:09:11.560
<v Speaker 1>when he hugged me it was in a probably the

0:09:11.679 --> 0:09:18.000
<v Speaker 1>most sexually aggressive manner than any of the other hugs

0:09:18.040 --> 0:09:21.120
<v Speaker 1>that he had given me. It was then that I said,

0:09:21.600 --> 0:09:24.920
<v Speaker 1>you know, Governor, you know, my words were, you're going

0:09:24.960 --> 0:09:27.960
<v Speaker 1>to get us in trouble. And I thought to myself

0:09:28.320 --> 0:09:33.360
<v Speaker 1>that probably wasn't the best thing to say, But at

0:09:33.400 --> 0:09:36.480
<v Speaker 1>that time I was so afraid that one of the

0:09:36.520 --> 0:09:39.920
<v Speaker 1>mansion staff that they were going to come up and

0:09:40.480 --> 0:09:44.320
<v Speaker 1>see this and think, oh, you know, is that what

0:09:44.440 --> 0:09:47.440
<v Speaker 1>she comes here for? And that's not what I came

0:09:47.480 --> 0:09:49.880
<v Speaker 1>there for, and that's not who I am. And I

0:09:49.920 --> 0:09:53.440
<v Speaker 1>was terrified of that. And when I said that, he

0:09:54.040 --> 0:09:57.680
<v Speaker 1>walked over shut the door so hard to the point

0:09:57.679 --> 0:10:01.719
<v Speaker 1>where I thought, for sure someone downstairs must think, they

0:10:01.800 --> 0:10:03.760
<v Speaker 1>must think if they heard that, what is going on?

0:10:04.679 --> 0:10:07.400
<v Speaker 1>Came back to me and that's when he put his

0:10:07.440 --> 0:10:10.800
<v Speaker 1>hand up my blouse and cupped my breast over my

0:10:10.880 --> 0:10:17.199
<v Speaker 1>bra I exactly remember looking down seeing his hand, which

0:10:17.280 --> 0:10:22.199
<v Speaker 1>is a large hand, thinking to myself, oh my god,

0:10:23.600 --> 0:10:27.440
<v Speaker 1>this is happening. It happened so quick. He didn't say

0:10:27.440 --> 0:10:31.040
<v Speaker 1>anything when I stopped it. He just pulled away and

0:10:31.920 --> 0:10:36.680
<v Speaker 1>walked away. Now the numbers up to thirteen. I guess

0:10:37.320 --> 0:10:40.320
<v Speaker 1>New York now. Not only is he going to be

0:10:40.400 --> 0:10:43.920
<v Speaker 1>replaced by the first female governor in New York state history,

0:10:43.960 --> 0:10:46.640
<v Speaker 1>but Cuomo will become the second elected New York state

0:10:46.679 --> 0:10:50.040
<v Speaker 1>governor in a row to be forced from office over

0:10:50.120 --> 0:10:53.920
<v Speaker 1>a sex scandal. You know, I guess New York now

0:10:53.960 --> 0:10:58.200
<v Speaker 1>two for two. First obviously being Elliot Spitzer. He was

0:10:58.280 --> 0:11:00.920
<v Speaker 1>forced out in two thousand and eight after he was

0:11:01.000 --> 0:11:05.720
<v Speaker 1>caught patronizing I guess high end prostitutes. In Cuomo's case,

0:11:05.760 --> 0:11:09.640
<v Speaker 1>he will be replaced by the lieutenant governor. Well, I'm sorry.

0:11:09.679 --> 0:11:12.760
<v Speaker 1>In Spitzer's case, it was David Patterson. Well, actually was

0:11:12.800 --> 0:11:16.200
<v Speaker 1>a very nice person. I got to know him a

0:11:16.200 --> 0:11:18.680
<v Speaker 1>little bit personally. He decided not to run again after

0:11:18.760 --> 0:11:23.840
<v Speaker 1>questions emerged about whether he had accepted free tickets to

0:11:23.840 --> 0:11:27.720
<v Speaker 1>a Yankee game. Cuomo was the New York State Attorney

0:11:27.760 --> 0:11:29.800
<v Speaker 1>General at the time, known to be interested in running

0:11:29.800 --> 0:11:32.360
<v Speaker 1>for governors. So there was some question about whether Cuomo

0:11:33.240 --> 0:11:36.760
<v Speaker 1>you know, made a deal with Patterson to bow out,

0:11:37.840 --> 0:11:42.640
<v Speaker 1>but that's a speculation. Patterson was New York's first African

0:11:42.640 --> 0:11:49.640
<v Speaker 1>American governor. Anyway, So Andrew Andrew Cuomo becomes governor, and

0:11:49.800 --> 0:11:51.320
<v Speaker 1>you know, here we are. I guess now back to

0:11:51.360 --> 0:11:53.840
<v Speaker 1>square one in New York. A lot of this isn't

0:11:53.880 --> 0:11:56.640
<v Speaker 1>just gonna It's not gonna matter in New York. I

0:11:56.640 --> 0:12:01.320
<v Speaker 1>don't see New York State changing now. I don't know

0:12:01.400 --> 0:12:03.800
<v Speaker 1>a whole lot. Neither does anyone else know a whole

0:12:03.800 --> 0:12:08.000
<v Speaker 1>lot about the lieutenant governor. To be very frank, she's

0:12:08.040 --> 0:12:11.920
<v Speaker 1>a Democrat. She's from a pretty conservative district actually in Buffalo,

0:12:12.880 --> 0:12:16.480
<v Speaker 1>and does she have any appetite or desire to take

0:12:16.880 --> 0:12:21.200
<v Speaker 1>on an Assembly and a state Senate that you know,

0:12:21.240 --> 0:12:27.720
<v Speaker 1>it's sort of New Green Deal socialism, AOC mindset that

0:12:27.840 --> 0:12:31.120
<v Speaker 1>rules Albany, New York, just like it does in Washington.

0:12:32.720 --> 0:12:36.280
<v Speaker 1>Article for the New York State Constitution. She takes over

0:12:36.320 --> 0:12:40.439
<v Speaker 1>as governor. She'll be New York's fifty seventh chief executive,

0:12:40.480 --> 0:12:43.079
<v Speaker 1>the first female governor in the state's nearly two hundred

0:12:43.080 --> 0:12:46.600
<v Speaker 1>and fifty year history. She said she agreed with Cuomo's

0:12:46.640 --> 0:12:48.840
<v Speaker 1>decision to step down. It's the right thing to do,

0:12:48.920 --> 0:12:52.400
<v Speaker 1>It's in the best interest of New Yorkers, and put

0:12:52.520 --> 0:12:56.040
<v Speaker 1>emphasize that it as someone who served at all levels

0:12:56.040 --> 0:13:00.360
<v Speaker 1>of government and is next in line of success should

0:13:00.600 --> 0:13:04.360
<v Speaker 1>um I'm prepared to lead. She's sixty two years old

0:13:04.400 --> 0:13:09.120
<v Speaker 1>from Buffalo, Syracuse University graduate. Okay, I don't think most

0:13:09.120 --> 0:13:12.560
<v Speaker 1>people really care. Is there gonna be anything different? So

0:13:12.600 --> 0:13:19.760
<v Speaker 1>it's gonna be fourteen days effective. And uh look, look

0:13:19.840 --> 0:13:23.680
<v Speaker 1>the problem with New York is just so much bigger now.

0:13:23.720 --> 0:13:25.400
<v Speaker 1>It was interesting. I don't know. I don't know what

0:13:25.559 --> 0:13:30.679
<v Speaker 1>to make of Ronan Pharaoh's article. I printed it out.

0:13:30.720 --> 0:13:33.920
<v Speaker 1>I haven't had a chance to read it all yet. Um,

0:13:34.080 --> 0:13:37.920
<v Speaker 1>But apparently Cuomo called the Obama White House to attack

0:13:38.960 --> 0:13:43.480
<v Speaker 1>a federal prosecute. I believe it with Free Brehara at

0:13:43.480 --> 0:13:47.640
<v Speaker 1>the time, and that would be the that would be

0:13:48.320 --> 0:13:51.920
<v Speaker 1>you know that that's where the Southern District of New York.

0:13:51.960 --> 0:13:54.679
<v Speaker 1>I mean, that's where Andy McCarthy and guys like Rudy

0:13:54.720 --> 0:13:58.600
<v Speaker 1>Giuliani came up out of UM. I actually met him

0:13:59.080 --> 0:14:02.600
<v Speaker 1>once at media party. Member Linda actually was a pretty

0:14:02.640 --> 0:14:06.640
<v Speaker 1>nice guy, nice to me. Yeah, runs his own podcast.

0:14:06.679 --> 0:14:12.360
<v Speaker 1>Apparently there's nothing listen. If you're working in that district,

0:14:12.520 --> 0:14:15.000
<v Speaker 1>the Southern District of New York, you're a serious lawyer.

0:14:16.160 --> 0:14:19.560
<v Speaker 1>That's all there is to it. Their reputation is warranted,

0:14:19.600 --> 0:14:35.080
<v Speaker 1>they're they're tough. It's amazing how many of you want

0:14:35.120 --> 0:14:37.200
<v Speaker 1>to weigh in on this. Maybe we'll take calls in

0:14:37.200 --> 0:14:40.480
<v Speaker 1>the next half hour, right, you know, because it's just

0:14:40.640 --> 0:14:44.720
<v Speaker 1>interesting people's perspective of all of this. I just knew

0:14:44.760 --> 0:14:47.120
<v Speaker 1>it was gonna happen because it was either going to

0:14:47.160 --> 0:14:51.880
<v Speaker 1>get impeached. I wasn't sure he'd resign, but I knew

0:14:51.880 --> 0:14:55.800
<v Speaker 1>it wasn't going to continue. That part was clear. But yes,

0:14:55.840 --> 0:14:59.720
<v Speaker 1>if you're just joining us, Andrew Cuomo resigning effective fourteen

0:14:59.800 --> 0:15:03.680
<v Speaker 1>days from now, the Lieutenant Governor of New York will

0:15:03.720 --> 0:15:07.840
<v Speaker 1>in fact take over in that state and be the

0:15:07.880 --> 0:15:11.720
<v Speaker 1>first female governor of the state of New York. And

0:15:12.840 --> 0:15:15.200
<v Speaker 1>it's going to be interesting. Now, there's some other things here,

0:15:16.560 --> 0:15:19.880
<v Speaker 1>remember Lucy Flores and Tera Tera read Is spoken out

0:15:19.920 --> 0:15:22.800
<v Speaker 1>to Foxnews dot Com. My heart is with the brave

0:15:22.880 --> 0:15:26.760
<v Speaker 1>Cuomo survivors who endured attempts to discredit them like I

0:15:26.840 --> 0:15:30.080
<v Speaker 1>did coming forward about Joe Biden. May there be some

0:15:30.200 --> 0:15:32.920
<v Speaker 1>measure of justice for the survivors. Now, let's call for

0:15:33.000 --> 0:15:38.120
<v Speaker 1>a real investigation into Joe Biden. One big difference seems

0:15:38.160 --> 0:15:42.200
<v Speaker 1>like Joe is in the medium mob big tech protection program.

0:15:42.280 --> 0:15:45.320
<v Speaker 1>Another way, we have some polling in in California. The

0:15:45.400 --> 0:15:49.200
<v Speaker 1>recall election question one to recall Adam Newsom is growing

0:15:49.200 --> 0:15:51.520
<v Speaker 1>by leaps and bounds. We'll get to all of that

0:15:51.640 --> 0:16:07.560
<v Speaker 1>coming up straight ahead. Breaking news all afternoon. When you

0:16:07.640 --> 0:16:10.400
<v Speaker 1>get off work, be sure to check in first for

0:16:10.520 --> 0:16:14.480
<v Speaker 1>everything you miss during the day. This is the Sean

0:16:14.680 --> 0:16:28.440
<v Speaker 1>Hannity Show. And I love New York and I love you,

0:16:29.640 --> 0:16:34.280
<v Speaker 1>and everything I have ever done has been motivated by

0:16:34.320 --> 0:16:38.720
<v Speaker 1>that love. And I would never want to be unhelpful

0:16:38.880 --> 0:16:43.240
<v Speaker 1>in any way. And I think that given the circumstances,

0:16:44.280 --> 0:16:47.960
<v Speaker 1>the best way I can help now is if I

0:16:48.080 --> 0:16:53.000
<v Speaker 1>step aside and let government get back to governing. And

0:16:53.080 --> 0:16:57.480
<v Speaker 1>therefore that's what I'll do, because I work for you,

0:16:58.640 --> 0:17:02.320
<v Speaker 1>and doing the right thing is doing the right thing

0:17:02.800 --> 0:17:07.240
<v Speaker 1>for you, Because as we say, it's not about me,

0:17:08.080 --> 0:17:13.320
<v Speaker 1>it's about we Jackie Hoklan, my Lieutenant governor, is smart

0:17:13.680 --> 0:17:18.639
<v Speaker 1>and competent. This transition must be seamless. We have a

0:17:18.680 --> 0:17:22.520
<v Speaker 1>lot going on. I'm very worried about the delta variant,

0:17:23.240 --> 0:17:26.439
<v Speaker 1>and so should you be. But she can come up

0:17:26.480 --> 0:17:30.000
<v Speaker 1>to speed quickly. And my resignation will be effective in

0:17:30.080 --> 0:17:35.760
<v Speaker 1>fourteen days. Okay. So that's that's the latest. With all

0:17:35.800 --> 0:17:41.800
<v Speaker 1>of that. One thing, there's something happening that I believe

0:17:41.920 --> 0:17:45.520
<v Speaker 1>we need to just start paying attention to because I

0:17:45.560 --> 0:17:48.359
<v Speaker 1>know a lot of people. You know, we're watching the

0:17:48.440 --> 0:17:54.520
<v Speaker 1>border and it is beyond devastating. Now when the numbers

0:17:54.560 --> 0:17:57.240
<v Speaker 1>came out yesterday and we talked about it and we're

0:17:57.280 --> 0:18:01.719
<v Speaker 1>pointing out, oh, just oh, it's only war Team twenty

0:18:01.720 --> 0:18:05.240
<v Speaker 1>percent of people. I mean, that is a huge amount

0:18:05.240 --> 0:18:08.240
<v Speaker 1>of money. What's going on at the southern border and

0:18:08.280 --> 0:18:11.520
<v Speaker 1>the huge percentage of people rather that are coming into

0:18:11.520 --> 0:18:15.840
<v Speaker 1>this country that are COVID positive and it's all happening

0:18:15.840 --> 0:18:22.640
<v Speaker 1>on Joe Biden's watch. What's funny is even the Washington

0:18:22.720 --> 0:18:31.000
<v Speaker 1>Post editorial board is slamming the incoherent agenda the border agencies. Now,

0:18:31.080 --> 0:18:34.600
<v Speaker 1>some agencies are saying COVID positivity rate among the illegal

0:18:34.600 --> 0:18:38.600
<v Speaker 1>immigrants is twenty percent one in five. Okay, Well, what

0:18:38.680 --> 0:18:42.800
<v Speaker 1>happens when you're putting Joe Biden's overcrowded cages and then

0:18:42.880 --> 0:18:45.920
<v Speaker 1>dispersed in the dark and night all you know, all

0:18:45.960 --> 0:18:50.359
<v Speaker 1>over the country. Well, they're bringing COVID with them in

0:18:50.400 --> 0:18:52.560
<v Speaker 1>the middle of a pandemic, in the middle of a

0:18:53.200 --> 0:18:56.240
<v Speaker 1>new variant wave known as the Delta variant, which is

0:18:56.280 --> 0:19:01.320
<v Speaker 1>far more contagious than previous variants. We have other variants

0:19:01.400 --> 0:19:04.640
<v Speaker 1>now on the horizon. There will be at least two

0:19:04.680 --> 0:19:07.959
<v Speaker 1>more that we know of as of today, starting with

0:19:08.000 --> 0:19:11.880
<v Speaker 1>the one out of Peru, the Lambda variant. And you're

0:19:11.880 --> 0:19:15.400
<v Speaker 1>gonna hear about the next variant. And now the CDC

0:19:15.600 --> 0:19:18.320
<v Speaker 1>directors are saying, well, you know, even though you got vaccinated,

0:19:18.400 --> 0:19:21.800
<v Speaker 1>can you can still contract COVID nineteen? I mean, you

0:19:21.960 --> 0:19:25.320
<v Speaker 1>just you can't make any of this up. But this

0:19:25.440 --> 0:19:30.520
<v Speaker 1>is now, this is Biden's America. You know, for all

0:19:30.560 --> 0:19:34.480
<v Speaker 1>the talk about super spreader events and Biden hiding in

0:19:34.520 --> 0:19:37.600
<v Speaker 1>his basement bunker, we know the real reason Biden was

0:19:37.680 --> 0:19:40.879
<v Speaker 1>hiding on his basement bunker. Biden was hiding in his

0:19:40.920 --> 0:19:46.360
<v Speaker 1>basement bunker because he wasn't capable of maintaining the strength

0:19:46.520 --> 0:19:50.560
<v Speaker 1>of a schedule of a real presidential campaign, and they

0:19:50.680 --> 0:19:54.440
<v Speaker 1>use COVID as an excuse, just like you know when

0:19:54.440 --> 0:20:00.000
<v Speaker 1>they ignored laws in all these states. That's a partisan observed.

0:20:00.600 --> 0:20:04.400
<v Speaker 1>Get to watch the vote counts start to finish. Partisan

0:20:04.440 --> 0:20:07.840
<v Speaker 1>observers put back twenty one hundred feet or not in

0:20:07.920 --> 0:20:11.840
<v Speaker 1>allowed at all. Is not following the law. Well, that

0:20:11.960 --> 0:20:16.360
<v Speaker 1>raises integrity issues and confidence and result issues. As we

0:20:16.400 --> 0:20:20.440
<v Speaker 1>have seen, there's certain things that ought to be basic.

0:20:20.480 --> 0:20:23.600
<v Speaker 1>If we're gonna have vaccine mandates, and you're gonna have

0:20:23.680 --> 0:20:27.080
<v Speaker 1>mask mandates, and you're gonna need a vaccine passport to

0:20:27.080 --> 0:20:29.960
<v Speaker 1>get into a bar or sporting event in New York

0:20:30.000 --> 0:20:33.399
<v Speaker 1>in California, well, I'm sure the very same people that

0:20:33.480 --> 0:20:36.600
<v Speaker 1>support those those vaccine passports are not going to be

0:20:36.640 --> 0:20:39.800
<v Speaker 1>against voter ID laws, are they. Oh, that's right, they

0:20:39.800 --> 0:20:46.080
<v Speaker 1>already are on record against them. Tell me why Joe Biden,

0:20:46.160 --> 0:20:49.760
<v Speaker 1>for fifty plus years as a senator from the state

0:20:49.800 --> 0:20:52.600
<v Speaker 1>of Delaware, never once lifted a finger to make voting

0:20:52.680 --> 0:20:56.920
<v Speaker 1>in Delaware more accessible because there wasn't an issue. This

0:20:57.520 --> 0:21:00.040
<v Speaker 1>is the Democrats at this point in twenty two, and

0:21:00.119 --> 0:21:03.160
<v Speaker 1>he taken advantage of COVID, Biden gets to hide out

0:21:03.160 --> 0:21:06.840
<v Speaker 1>in his basement bunker, even botch up the campaign from

0:21:06.840 --> 0:21:09.600
<v Speaker 1>down there, barely gets covered by the mob and the media.

0:21:10.240 --> 0:21:14.119
<v Speaker 1>You know, big story breaks about zero experience Hunter is laptop,

0:21:14.160 --> 0:21:17.160
<v Speaker 1>but we can't, we can't run with that story. Will

0:21:17.240 --> 0:21:19.879
<v Speaker 1>hide that story from the American people, will delete it

0:21:19.960 --> 0:21:27.560
<v Speaker 1>from any major social, big tech media conglomerate companies as

0:21:27.560 --> 0:21:32.600
<v Speaker 1>a means of helping Biden. I mean, these are troubling times.

0:21:33.560 --> 0:21:35.800
<v Speaker 1>Now look at the results of Okay, you don't have

0:21:36.560 --> 0:21:42.040
<v Speaker 1>signature verification, voter ID, chain of custody control, you don't

0:21:42.040 --> 0:21:44.920
<v Speaker 1>have you know, you don't clean up and modernize and

0:21:45.080 --> 0:21:49.439
<v Speaker 1>update voter rolls every election season. I mean, these are

0:21:49.480 --> 0:21:53.639
<v Speaker 1>all simple things to do, just common sense. You know.

0:21:53.760 --> 0:21:57.679
<v Speaker 1>I would assume then the the ID requirement to get

0:21:57.760 --> 0:22:00.280
<v Speaker 1>in the White House that's going to end too, and

0:22:00.359 --> 0:22:03.000
<v Speaker 1>the ID requirement to get into the Capitol that's going

0:22:03.040 --> 0:22:06.320
<v Speaker 1>to go away. And the picture ID that I've needed

0:22:06.359 --> 0:22:09.719
<v Speaker 1>for every Democratic national convention I've covered in my career,

0:22:09.800 --> 0:22:12.640
<v Speaker 1>that that will go away in the next election when

0:22:12.680 --> 0:22:19.360
<v Speaker 1>I'm covering that convention, that'll go away too. You see

0:22:19.359 --> 0:22:23.199
<v Speaker 1>the hypocrisy, it's breathtaking. I'll tell you what's happening is

0:22:23.200 --> 0:22:27.879
<v Speaker 1>people have had it. I don't know one person. You know.

0:22:27.960 --> 0:22:31.879
<v Speaker 1>I can afford to pay the extra what dollar thirty

0:22:31.920 --> 0:22:34.199
<v Speaker 1>a gallon I'm now paying for gasoline? I can afford it,

0:22:34.200 --> 0:22:37.280
<v Speaker 1>but I don't. I don't. I don't know. From the

0:22:37.320 --> 0:22:41.439
<v Speaker 1>time I was struggling to make my rent payments early

0:22:41.480 --> 0:22:46.280
<v Speaker 1>in my adult life, which was a significant number of years,

0:22:47.080 --> 0:22:50.200
<v Speaker 1>to where I am now, I don't know. My mindset

0:22:50.320 --> 0:22:54.280
<v Speaker 1>hasn't really changed. It's kind of why. I yeah, I

0:22:54.440 --> 0:22:59.480
<v Speaker 1>shun certain things that people don't understand. Why I don't

0:22:59.600 --> 0:23:02.840
<v Speaker 1>dress bet or wear a watch. I don't want to

0:23:02.880 --> 0:23:05.239
<v Speaker 1>watch to a waste of money for me. I end

0:23:05.320 --> 0:23:07.560
<v Speaker 1>up buying watches for everybody else, but I don't want them.

0:23:07.560 --> 0:23:10.159
<v Speaker 1>I don't want them for myself. Linda, how true? Is

0:23:10.200 --> 0:23:13.480
<v Speaker 1>that story? Very very true? I don't want to get it.

0:23:13.760 --> 0:23:15.920
<v Speaker 1>I don't want I don't want to get caught in

0:23:15.960 --> 0:23:19.840
<v Speaker 1>the trappings of crap of stuff. I have enough or

0:23:20.000 --> 0:23:23.040
<v Speaker 1>be forced to be on time. You know, it's good

0:23:23.040 --> 0:23:26.439
<v Speaker 1>to have an excuse for being chronically late. That is

0:23:26.600 --> 0:23:30.439
<v Speaker 1>really a mean, backhanded slap. That is never so. I

0:23:30.480 --> 0:23:33.560
<v Speaker 1>would never do that. You always try your best to

0:23:33.560 --> 0:23:36.199
<v Speaker 1>be on time, and it's the effort that can You

0:23:36.240 --> 0:23:39.199
<v Speaker 1>didn't even realize it, and I didn't say anything, you know,

0:23:39.280 --> 0:23:43.720
<v Speaker 1>on whatever trip we were on recently, and anyway, you

0:23:43.800 --> 0:23:46.160
<v Speaker 1>send out an email, Yeah, we're gonna say we're leaving

0:23:46.200 --> 0:23:51.800
<v Speaker 1>it at seven thirty, eight thirty in Hannity time, so

0:23:51.800 --> 0:23:53.479
<v Speaker 1>we're all really planning on me. And by the way,

0:23:53.520 --> 0:23:57.480
<v Speaker 1>I was there on time. No, you were not. No,

0:23:57.600 --> 0:24:00.560
<v Speaker 1>you were not. You're so full of it. I wasn't

0:24:00.600 --> 0:24:02.359
<v Speaker 1>on your fake because I knew it was a fake

0:24:02.440 --> 0:24:04.680
<v Speaker 1>time that you were telling everybody it was not a

0:24:04.920 --> 0:24:09.840
<v Speaker 1>time was the real? Okay time chain. First of all,

0:24:10.040 --> 0:24:14.840
<v Speaker 1>the fake time was six am, the real time was

0:24:14.880 --> 0:24:20.840
<v Speaker 1>seven thirty. Hannity arrival time in Hannity Land was eight

0:24:20.920 --> 0:24:23.880
<v Speaker 1>twenty seven. You see the differences is you have these

0:24:23.960 --> 0:24:27.080
<v Speaker 1>fears you and Blair about being able to set up

0:24:27.200 --> 0:24:31.639
<v Speaker 1>equipment and how much times it's called giving your team

0:24:31.800 --> 0:24:35.080
<v Speaker 1>enough time to set up. I have more confidence in

0:24:35.160 --> 0:24:40.480
<v Speaker 1>your abilities than you do. No, you're chronically late. Chronically

0:24:40.480 --> 0:24:44.719
<v Speaker 1>prior to every every trip, you guys do your due diligence,

0:24:44.800 --> 0:24:47.359
<v Speaker 1>You test the equipment, you make sure everything's working. You

0:24:47.480 --> 0:24:50.040
<v Speaker 1>double check that you have backups of anything that could

0:24:50.080 --> 0:24:52.840
<v Speaker 1>possibly go wrong, and then we and then we arrive,

0:24:53.000 --> 0:24:55.920
<v Speaker 1>all the backups fail, the internet doesn't work, the engineer

0:24:55.920 --> 0:24:59.359
<v Speaker 1>on staff is on vacation. But your checklist, guys, But

0:24:59.480 --> 0:25:03.280
<v Speaker 1>if I at another hour for those things out beyond

0:25:03.320 --> 0:25:07.439
<v Speaker 1>my control? Did we get on the air. Yes, no,

0:25:07.600 --> 0:25:12.880
<v Speaker 1>thanks to Hannity clock time that whole circle yore. Welcome.

0:25:13.359 --> 0:25:15.800
<v Speaker 1>Maybe if you updated your sun dial, maybe you'd be

0:25:15.800 --> 0:25:18.879
<v Speaker 1>better off. If maybe, if I wanted you to chime

0:25:18.960 --> 0:25:21.520
<v Speaker 1>in on her side, I would have invited you just

0:25:21.560 --> 0:25:25.000
<v Speaker 1>saying it is it like just saying I love my team.

0:25:25.040 --> 0:25:27.920
<v Speaker 1>They just feel free to just bash their boss. Thing

0:25:27.920 --> 0:25:30.280
<v Speaker 1>that you're saying, you don't need another watch? Oh my god,

0:25:30.320 --> 0:25:32.480
<v Speaker 1>I almost lost myself there. Who do you mean I

0:25:32.480 --> 0:25:34.560
<v Speaker 1>don't have a single watch? What are you talking about?

0:25:34.680 --> 0:25:38.879
<v Speaker 1>Get a few? Jeez? How many do you have? I

0:25:39.080 --> 0:25:42.879
<v Speaker 1>have a digital watch all the time. As soon as

0:25:42.920 --> 0:25:44.560
<v Speaker 1>I got into this business. It's one of the first

0:25:44.560 --> 0:25:50.080
<v Speaker 1>things electronic device that changes often because I keep losing

0:25:50.080 --> 0:25:53.000
<v Speaker 1>it or dropping it in the toilet. Twenty one. You

0:25:53.000 --> 0:25:56.720
<v Speaker 1>don't have to use your potato clock, Okay, Oh my gosh,

0:25:56.800 --> 0:26:00.560
<v Speaker 1>all right, so I used the phone has time. Right now,

0:26:00.600 --> 0:26:04.760
<v Speaker 1>it's three forty four eastern, twelve forty four on the

0:26:04.760 --> 0:26:07.280
<v Speaker 1>West coast. You like me to update you? Do you

0:26:07.320 --> 0:26:09.160
<v Speaker 1>want me to do it by the second? I can

0:26:09.200 --> 0:26:10.840
<v Speaker 1>do that too, if I think that'll be for me.

0:26:10.920 --> 0:26:13.199
<v Speaker 1>How I still I wouldn't be able to do it

0:26:13.200 --> 0:26:14.920
<v Speaker 1>on my own. I will tell you what you are

0:26:14.960 --> 0:26:19.520
<v Speaker 1>good at, what I want to compliment. Sure you're ready? Okay. So,

0:26:19.560 --> 0:26:21.959
<v Speaker 1>out of any host I know in the entire business,

0:26:22.200 --> 0:26:25.000
<v Speaker 1>and I have talked about this with other hosts, you

0:26:25.119 --> 0:26:28.920
<v Speaker 1>have the most ridiculous recollection of call letters of stations,

0:26:29.560 --> 0:26:33.840
<v Speaker 1>which is uncanny because I love my stations, Yes you do,

0:26:33.960 --> 0:26:36.320
<v Speaker 1>but it's it's pretty incredible. You never get it at

0:26:36.359 --> 0:26:38.760
<v Speaker 1>a record I think what it was at six sixty five. Now,

0:26:39.240 --> 0:26:42.960
<v Speaker 1>that's right. I'm very grateful. Just shows you there's a

0:26:43.000 --> 0:26:44.920
<v Speaker 1>lot of conservatives out there. They're just not as loud

0:26:44.960 --> 0:26:47.000
<v Speaker 1>as the liberals because they're at work. Now let me

0:26:47.000 --> 0:26:49.560
<v Speaker 1>tell you we're gonna the things are gonna change. Look

0:26:49.560 --> 0:26:51.960
<v Speaker 1>at the look at this news just thenews dot com.

0:26:51.960 --> 0:26:57.640
<v Speaker 1>At a survey USA San Diego Union Trib Pole, fifty

0:26:57.680 --> 0:27:01.560
<v Speaker 1>one percent of Californians now want to recall Newsom. The

0:27:01.640 --> 0:27:04.320
<v Speaker 1>only thing I worry about the only thing I worry

0:27:04.359 --> 0:27:09.240
<v Speaker 1>about is integrity and elections out there because it's run

0:27:09.320 --> 0:27:13.520
<v Speaker 1>by all Democrats, and it's there's only forty percent of

0:27:13.600 --> 0:27:19.320
<v Speaker 1>Californians against they recall. That means that the people that,

0:27:19.840 --> 0:27:23.439
<v Speaker 1>you know, if they did vote to keep Newsome or

0:27:23.480 --> 0:27:26.960
<v Speaker 1>not recall him, not that passionate about Newsom. And how

0:27:27.000 --> 0:27:31.199
<v Speaker 1>could you be with all of his hypocrisy, you know,

0:27:31.240 --> 0:27:35.480
<v Speaker 1>By the way, days before attending Obama's massless super spreader

0:27:35.560 --> 0:27:42.440
<v Speaker 1>Matha's vineyard birthday bash, John Legend lectured Americans on maskuarring.

0:27:42.720 --> 0:27:45.400
<v Speaker 1>I wondered if very lectured the crowd at Obama's party

0:27:45.400 --> 0:27:49.280
<v Speaker 1>of mask wearing this tarr read comment was pretty interesting

0:27:49.320 --> 0:27:52.240
<v Speaker 1>to me. You know, Okay, they're gonna follow now Cuomo's

0:27:52.320 --> 0:27:57.640
<v Speaker 1>example and resign. Remember the media just they protect who

0:27:57.680 --> 0:27:59.960
<v Speaker 1>they want to protect. They only go usually the only

0:28:00.119 --> 0:28:03.000
<v Speaker 1>after Republicans. There's some others. There's some story to this

0:28:03.119 --> 0:28:07.320
<v Speaker 1>that we'll find out at some point. I gotta give

0:28:07.359 --> 0:28:10.119
<v Speaker 1>a tip of the hat today to I have a

0:28:10.160 --> 0:28:12.160
<v Speaker 1>couple of things I want to talk about. Give tips

0:28:12.160 --> 0:28:16.679
<v Speaker 1>of that too. Chicago cops. You know, if you you

0:28:16.720 --> 0:28:20.960
<v Speaker 1>know Chicago police have had it seventy three shootings this weekend.

0:28:21.640 --> 0:28:24.440
<v Speaker 1>There's twenty nine year old police officer shot and killed.

0:28:24.760 --> 0:28:27.720
<v Speaker 1>The first reports we had said that she had a

0:28:27.760 --> 0:28:29.840
<v Speaker 1>two month old child. That turned out not to be true.

0:28:29.880 --> 0:28:31.439
<v Speaker 1>So I want to correct the record on that and

0:28:31.480 --> 0:28:35.040
<v Speaker 1>apologize for getting that wrong. But the mayor was given

0:28:35.119 --> 0:28:39.520
<v Speaker 1>the cold shoulder by Chicago Police Department rank and file

0:28:39.840 --> 0:28:43.440
<v Speaker 1>midnight on Saturday when she went to the University Chicago

0:28:43.480 --> 0:28:46.800
<v Speaker 1>Medical Center when she approached them on the seventh floor

0:28:46.840 --> 0:28:49.719
<v Speaker 1>as they grappled with the shootings of two officers, one

0:28:49.800 --> 0:28:54.760
<v Speaker 1>still in critical condition, and Ella French passed away and

0:28:55.080 --> 0:28:57.880
<v Speaker 1>was killed during the one of these so called routine

0:28:57.920 --> 0:29:02.600
<v Speaker 1>traffic stops that everyone tells about. Nothing's routine about it.

0:29:02.720 --> 0:29:04.760
<v Speaker 1>So sad. She had a whole life ahead of her.

0:29:05.960 --> 0:29:08.640
<v Speaker 1>Her partners fought fighting for his life in the hospital

0:29:09.280 --> 0:29:12.440
<v Speaker 1>moments before about thirty officers. They turned their backs on

0:29:12.480 --> 0:29:16.640
<v Speaker 1>the mayor and tried to as Lightfoot tried to talk

0:29:16.680 --> 0:29:20.719
<v Speaker 1>to the mail officer's father, who himself has retired Chicago Police.

0:29:20.720 --> 0:29:24.280
<v Speaker 1>He clearly wanted nothing to do with this woman, this mayor.

0:29:24.560 --> 0:29:28.280
<v Speaker 1>It's terrible, the father excoriated the mayor blamed her for

0:29:28.360 --> 0:29:33.280
<v Speaker 1>what had happened. How could you not blame any every politician.

0:29:34.280 --> 0:29:36.480
<v Speaker 1>There's one guy, this guy we had on TV last night.

0:29:36.560 --> 0:29:40.280
<v Speaker 1>What's the guy's named? The Alderman Raymond? What's his name?

0:29:40.320 --> 0:29:43.600
<v Speaker 1>I forgot? It was great last night. I want to

0:29:43.600 --> 0:29:46.240
<v Speaker 1>give another tip of the hat. You know, we hear

0:29:46.280 --> 0:29:49.520
<v Speaker 1>about all the what's up Lopez? Yeah, he's a great guy.

0:29:49.680 --> 0:29:51.360
<v Speaker 1>He's been on our show a number of times. I

0:29:51.440 --> 0:29:56.120
<v Speaker 1>like him a lot. So you have this this US wrestler.

0:29:56.640 --> 0:30:00.840
<v Speaker 1>Her name is Tamera Mensa Stock. She won gold medal

0:30:00.880 --> 0:30:04.880
<v Speaker 1>the first time ever. By the way, um, and I

0:30:04.920 --> 0:30:07.200
<v Speaker 1>didn't know you actually win money when you win a

0:30:07.240 --> 0:30:10.520
<v Speaker 1>gold medal, you know, win a lot. It's thirty seven thousand,

0:30:10.600 --> 0:30:14.840
<v Speaker 1>five hundred dollars. She's taking all of that money and

0:30:15.000 --> 0:30:18.320
<v Speaker 1>giving it to her mom. This is this is the

0:30:18.360 --> 0:30:21.200
<v Speaker 1>young woman that said I love my country. I love

0:30:21.280 --> 0:30:25.160
<v Speaker 1>representing American. That American flag round her shoulders looks pretty good.

0:30:25.280 --> 0:30:27.320
<v Speaker 1>How does that feeling to represent your country like this?

0:30:27.680 --> 0:30:33.520
<v Speaker 1>It feels amazing. I loveless. I'm freaking love living there.

0:30:33.720 --> 0:30:41.440
<v Speaker 1>I love it and I'm so happy. I mean, she's

0:30:41.480 --> 0:30:43.640
<v Speaker 1>taking all of her winnings and giving it to her

0:30:43.680 --> 0:30:48.360
<v Speaker 1>mom so her mom could fulfill her dream of getting

0:30:48.360 --> 0:30:52.080
<v Speaker 1>a food truck. It's been her dream. I told her

0:30:52.120 --> 0:30:54.480
<v Speaker 1>five years ago. All right, Mom, I'll get you the

0:30:54.520 --> 0:30:57.440
<v Speaker 1>food truck, but you gotta be responsible. And this is

0:30:57.560 --> 0:31:00.360
<v Speaker 1>the daughter telling her mom. That cracks me up. So

0:31:00.440 --> 0:31:04.600
<v Speaker 1>Mom's getting her food truck and she's gonna have a

0:31:04.600 --> 0:31:10.000
<v Speaker 1>cooking business. She can really cook, really well barbecue. I mean,

0:31:10.040 --> 0:31:13.959
<v Speaker 1>how great is how great of stories this? Anyway, she

0:31:14.960 --> 0:31:17.000
<v Speaker 1>you know, I guess her mom, and she lost her

0:31:17.080 --> 0:31:21.000
<v Speaker 1>dad in a terrible car accident I found out. Since

0:31:21.000 --> 0:31:23.520
<v Speaker 1>she's going to continue wrestling, wants to compete in the

0:31:23.560 --> 0:31:27.720
<v Speaker 1>twenty twenty four Paris Olympics. I mean, is there anything

0:31:27.760 --> 0:31:31.080
<v Speaker 1>we could do for her? We gotta think about something

0:31:31.160 --> 0:31:35.760
<v Speaker 1>cool to do. She She's just the only thing I

0:31:35.800 --> 0:31:37.840
