WEBVTT - Sliwa Remains Defiant - September 5th, Hour 3 0:00:04.920 --> 0:00:08.399 It is being pushed in harm's way here news round 0:00:08.480 --> 0:00:12.520 up infrom it. I was asking you for the call 0:00:12.560 --> 0:00:15.720 in number because Curtis is about to call in Curtis Lee, Well, 0:00:15.760 --> 0:00:19.200 we're expecting any moment now a press conference from Merrick Adams. 0:00:19.200 --> 0:00:24.440 It's supposed to be campaign related. I'm guessing now with 0:00:24.480 --> 0:00:26.560 mister s and I will get that to him, sir, 0:00:26.600 --> 0:00:29.080 That is my job. Yeah, he wants to call in 0:00:29.120 --> 0:00:30.680 it and be on the show, so we'll find out 0:00:30.680 --> 0:00:33.480 get his initial reaction. I can't think of any other 0:00:33.560 --> 0:00:38.320 reason why this would happen. Anyway, The shot is up 0:00:38.320 --> 0:00:42.080 for Adam's announcement. They had delayed that. My guess is 0:00:42.080 --> 0:00:44.800 they probably delayed because of the President's press conference. 0:00:45.400 --> 0:00:45.519 Uh. 0:00:46.120 --> 0:00:48.959 By the way, I'm getting a lot of people texting 0:00:49.120 --> 0:00:53.199 and a lot of people calling. If you, Linda, can 0:00:53.240 --> 0:00:55.560 send me the number for Curtis to call, and he's 0:00:55.680 --> 0:01:00.440 texting me. You may not have the same I do, 0:01:00.520 --> 0:01:02.120 so if you send it to me, I'll send it 0:01:02.120 --> 0:01:05.800 to him. Might as well air all of our dirty laundry. 0:01:06.840 --> 0:01:11.759 But anyway, the President changing the Department of Defense's name 0:01:12.000 --> 0:01:15.759 to the Department of War, which it had been called, 0:01:16.240 --> 0:01:18.400 you know, throughout every war that we have ever had, 0:01:18.440 --> 0:01:20.800 World War one, World War two, et cetera, et cetera. 0:01:21.360 --> 0:01:24.080 So you know it's going to be very interesting. If 0:01:24.120 --> 0:01:25.520 you want to react to any of this, you can 0:01:25.520 --> 0:01:27.360 give us a call. Eight hundred and nine to four one, 0:01:27.360 --> 0:01:29.800 Shawn is a number on a Friday. Now you talk 0:01:29.840 --> 0:01:33.800 about a Friday news dump, I mean, this is it. 0:01:33.800 --> 0:01:36.200 It's like all of this coming out of nowhere. We 0:01:36.200 --> 0:01:38.720 weren't expecting a lot of this, although we did tell 0:01:38.720 --> 0:01:40.600 you at the beginning of the program today that President 0:01:40.640 --> 0:01:44.840 Trump would in fact be renaming the Department of Defense 0:01:44.880 --> 0:01:48.200 to the Department of War. As it relates to whatever 0:01:48.360 --> 0:01:52.320 Eric Adams is going to announce. I can't imagine that 0:01:52.480 --> 0:01:55.040 they would put out that we have a major campaign 0:01:55.080 --> 0:01:59.440 announcement if it wasn't about him getting out of the race. Now, 0:01:59.720 --> 0:02:02.760 front cover of the New York Post today says Trump 0:02:03.080 --> 0:02:08.240 to city drop out, tells GOP donor he's talking about 0:02:08.480 --> 0:02:12.760 a grocery store businessman John Castaatites, who owns a lot 0:02:12.800 --> 0:02:14.919 of big grocery chains in New York. He might recall 0:02:15.040 --> 0:02:21.960 the Zoron Kami, you know, Marxistmondami wants government run grocery stores. 0:02:22.280 --> 0:02:25.640 But anyway, the headline is tells GOP donor talking about 0:02:25.639 --> 0:02:30.120 custom a tities have planned to stop Mamdani by Wednesday 0:02:30.240 --> 0:02:32.840 or I'm stepping in. I'm not sure if anybody can 0:02:32.880 --> 0:02:37.160 stop it now. The belief in what Andrew CMO has 0:02:37.200 --> 0:02:43.240 been arguing is that he and only he can Beatdati, 0:02:43.480 --> 0:02:45.920 not one on one, and I'm not sure I believe that. 0:02:45.960 --> 0:02:47.960 Curtis lee when I was up at twenty percent of 0:02:48.000 --> 0:02:52.320 the vote, And by the way, why doesn't Cuomo get out? Anyway, 0:02:52.639 --> 0:02:56.239 Andrew Cuomo huddling with Al Sharpton in an apparent bid 0:02:56.280 --> 0:02:59.919 for an endorsement today. Apparently they met at the Regency 0:03:00.080 --> 0:03:05.959 Hotel for a breakfast sit down and not surprisingly, I 0:03:06.000 --> 0:03:09.000 guess very favorable for Reverend Now. Why he's getting involved 0:03:09.000 --> 0:03:12.280 in this, I don't know. I'm very impressed with Mamdani, 0:03:12.360 --> 0:03:14.560 but I've known Andrew for forty years, going back to 0:03:14.560 --> 0:03:19.320 the eighties with his father, ex Governor Mario Clomo. Anyway, 0:03:19.440 --> 0:03:23.240 Curtis Sliwa is with us on our Newsmaker line, and he, 0:03:23.360 --> 0:03:25.920 of course has come up pretty dramatically in the polls Now, 0:03:25.919 --> 0:03:28.680 I saw you at twenty percent. Congratulations sir. That number 0:03:28.720 --> 0:03:29.440 keeps going up. 0:03:29.960 --> 0:03:33.760 Thank you, Sean. And I've outraised both Eric Adams and 0:03:33.760 --> 0:03:37.360 and Jewel Como the last two quarters. I'm equal to 0:03:37.400 --> 0:03:41.040 the amount of money four million dollars raised by Johann Mandami. 0:03:41.280 --> 0:03:44.120 And it's all small donors. Average donor one hundred and 0:03:44.200 --> 0:03:48.280 ten dollars, So we're doing phenomenally well. I just committed 0:03:48.320 --> 0:03:51.200 an active repo. Shawn, You're gonna love this. I came 0:03:51.240 --> 0:03:55.160 into Brown Hill, used to be the headquarters of Eric Adams, 0:03:55.440 --> 0:03:57.520 and I took it over. They gave me the keys, 0:03:57.880 --> 0:04:01.120 and all of his supporters joined teams right in the 0:04:01.160 --> 0:04:01.880 heart of the hood. 0:04:03.000 --> 0:04:05.800 Wow, that's a big story. Now do you know what 0:04:05.800 --> 0:04:08.160 this announcement is going to be? This campaign announcement? 0:04:09.040 --> 0:04:12.400 I have no idea. I know he's been obviously talking 0:04:12.440 --> 0:04:16.400 to the Trump administration in different capacities, but to look 0:04:16.440 --> 0:04:18.920 in the faces of his supporters, and you know how 0:04:18.960 --> 0:04:24.080 difficult political campaigns are, Sean. Your supporters, especially your volunteers, 0:04:24.160 --> 0:04:27.400 really believe in you. So for them to turn to 0:04:27.480 --> 0:04:31.560 me and say, Curtis, you always are second choice. Here 0:04:31.600 --> 0:04:35.359 are the keys run your operation? Here? Because Sohan Mandami 0:04:35.400 --> 0:04:39.279 does not represent us and Andrew Como spends too much 0:04:39.279 --> 0:04:41.680 time in the Hamptons. You're the man of the streets, 0:04:41.720 --> 0:04:44.479 You're the man of the subways. That's why we've got 0:04:44.480 --> 0:04:49.040 a real great campaign. Now. I understand Eric was looking 0:04:49.080 --> 0:04:52.640 for a way out. Look that's his choice, but I 0:04:53.120 --> 0:04:55.320 am not looking for a way out. I've yet to 0:04:55.360 --> 0:04:58.640 receive any calls from anybody in the Trump administration or 0:04:58.680 --> 0:05:02.520 from the President himself. And Sean, you're as good as 0:05:02.560 --> 0:05:06.120 it gets when it comes to conveying a message. If 0:05:06.240 --> 0:05:09.080 asked if I would bow out or if I would 0:05:09.160 --> 0:05:11.960 accept the job out of state or at the White House, 0:05:12.000 --> 0:05:15.440 I would respectfully say I'd love to serve with the 0:05:15.440 --> 0:05:18.440 President under other circumstances. But I got to tell you 0:05:18.560 --> 0:05:21.600 my mission is to become mayor save this city so 0:05:21.640 --> 0:05:23.920 that next year we bring in at least staphonic to 0:05:24.040 --> 0:05:26.760 one two punch, and we saved the state and city 0:05:27.120 --> 0:05:31.200 like at one time. Remember Rudy Giuliani nineteen ninety two 0:05:31.240 --> 0:05:34.960 becomes the mayor and the following year George Battaki beats 0:05:35.000 --> 0:05:37.640 Mario Cuomo and we got the state and city back 0:05:37.680 --> 0:05:38.120 on track. 0:05:39.279 --> 0:05:42.120 Let me ask you this because you told my friend 0:05:42.200 --> 0:05:45.440 Charlie Gasparino. No means no today because I guess you 0:05:45.440 --> 0:05:48.800 were texting with him or dming with him, and you 0:05:49.120 --> 0:05:52.279 in the New York Post today were quoted as saying, 0:05:52.440 --> 0:05:54.560 I am in this to the end. There is nothing, 0:05:54.640 --> 0:05:58.000 no circumstances at all, whatsoever, that would push you out 0:05:58.040 --> 0:05:58.600 of this race. 0:05:59.480 --> 0:06:03.919 Absolutely, San I could never step aside for Andrew no 0:06:04.080 --> 0:06:07.919 cash bail Cuomo. It was the no cash bail policy 0:06:08.080 --> 0:06:13.000 that led to the complete collapse of the criminal justice 0:06:13.040 --> 0:06:17.440 system and his continuing doubling down on that. He raised 0:06:17.440 --> 0:06:21.400 the age at eighteen so that if you're a juvenile. 0:06:21.080 --> 0:06:24.440 Committed Curtis, hang on at a stay on the Newsmaker line. 0:06:24.480 --> 0:06:26.520 If you don't mind, We're going to go to Gracie 0:06:26.600 --> 0:06:29.880 Mansion and check in with the current mayor, Eric Adams. 0:06:30.360 --> 0:06:30.520 Why. 0:06:37.839 --> 0:06:42.320 First of all, thanks for coming out into New York Kers. 0:06:42.400 --> 0:06:45.200 I want to speak directly to you. There has been 0:06:45.440 --> 0:06:52.120 so much speculation, communications, announcements of what I'm doing, no 0:06:52.120 --> 0:06:55.600 matter what I have stated over and over again publicly, 0:06:56.000 --> 0:06:59.400 so I want to be clear with you. Andrew Cuomo 0:06:59.560 --> 0:07:03.200 is a snaw and a liar. I am in this 0:07:03.440 --> 0:07:07.719 race and I'm the only one that can beat Mandonni 0:07:08.680 --> 0:07:13.600 Andrew has had a career of pushing black candidates out 0:07:13.600 --> 0:07:14.280 of races. 0:07:14.760 --> 0:07:15.360 You've heard me. 0:07:15.320 --> 0:07:22.280 Say it over again, Carl McCall, Charlie King, David Patterson. 0:07:23.200 --> 0:07:27.760 This is his career that must stop with me. This 0:07:27.920 --> 0:07:30.640 city can't go backwards, New Yorkers. 0:07:31.240 --> 0:07:31.920 This is a. 0:07:31.760 --> 0:07:37.000 City that I inherited, where crime was out of control, COVID, 0:07:37.160 --> 0:07:40.240 no one wanted to be on our subway system. We 0:07:40.400 --> 0:07:44.040 watched what happened in housing. The reason people I have 0:07:44.160 --> 0:07:47.000 in these conversations is because I made the city safe. 0:07:47.720 --> 0:07:51.880 I committed myself and dedicated myself to a city that 0:07:52.000 --> 0:07:55.040 I love, and I'm going to continue to do that. 0:07:56.040 --> 0:07:58.000 This polo shirt that I'm wearing that. 0:07:57.960 --> 0:08:00.440 Says Eric Adams, May of the City of New York, 0:08:00.960 --> 0:08:05.080 I'm gonna wear that for another four years. We can't 0:08:05.080 --> 0:08:08.520 go backwards. We can't have a city that's filled with 0:08:08.760 --> 0:08:12.880 encampments like I inherited. We can't have a city we're 0:08:12.960 --> 0:08:16.360 climbed and guns are on our streets like I inherited. 0:08:16.920 --> 0:08:20.440 We can't have a city. But unemployment was high across 0:08:20.480 --> 0:08:22.640 the city, but specifically all right. 0:08:22.560 --> 0:08:24.520 Back at the message here, I don't think there's any 0:08:24.560 --> 0:08:26.520 reason to stick with this press conference when we have 0:08:26.560 --> 0:08:28.960 Curtis Leewa. So you're not getting out. Adams is not 0:08:29.040 --> 0:08:32.800 getting out. Neither one of you are particularly fond of 0:08:32.840 --> 0:08:36.679 Andrew Cuomo, but it seems very personal for do Blasio 0:08:36.720 --> 0:08:40.600 in particular, and for Eric Adams not as personal for you, 0:08:40.720 --> 0:08:49.880 but you're not fond of him either. No, and in fact, oh, 0:08:50.200 --> 0:08:55.720 now we're having Curtis's celvone problems. You know, you can't 0:08:55.720 --> 0:08:58.440 make this stuff up. Welcome to live radio, ladies and gentlemen. 0:08:59.040 --> 0:09:02.200 We'll try and get Curtis back on, or he'll just 0:09:02.240 --> 0:09:05.240 call back on his own. I did not expect that 0:09:05.280 --> 0:09:07.200 because they made Linda, they made such a big deal 0:09:07.280 --> 0:09:09.840 over the fact that he was making this announcement, and 0:09:09.880 --> 0:09:13.480 it came suddenly, and he was supposed to make this 0:09:13.520 --> 0:09:17.520 announcement about forty five minutes ago. And I'm not sure 0:09:17.520 --> 0:09:19.520 if he waited for the President to finish his press 0:09:19.559 --> 0:09:22.800 conference or not. But the fact that he's staying in 0:09:22.840 --> 0:09:26.520 the race, I did not even believe by the way 0:09:26.760 --> 0:09:28.720 the New York Posts covering as much as I don't 0:09:28.720 --> 0:09:31.760 think Donald Trump, I think Donald Trump understands, you know, 0:09:31.880 --> 0:09:34.920 New York City politics is what it is. I mean 0:09:34.960 --> 0:09:39.680 even in the years with Woolman Ring, for example, Donald 0:09:39.720 --> 0:09:43.560 Trump was there and working with Ed Koch and the 0:09:43.600 --> 0:09:47.360 city was I mean, they were angry at the idea. 0:09:47.400 --> 0:09:50.520 They spent ten years and you know, tens of millions 0:09:50.520 --> 0:09:53.400 of dollars to build an ice skating rink. Donald Trump 0:09:53.480 --> 0:09:56.160 was looking down from his office every day rolling his eyes, 0:09:56.200 --> 0:09:58.040 thinking this is the dumbest thing I've ever seen in 0:09:58.080 --> 0:10:00.960 my life. He came in, got it an under budget, 0:10:01.080 --> 0:10:04.640 on time, and woman rink is you know, a famous 0:10:04.760 --> 0:10:07.240 ice skating rink in Central Park for kids in the 0:10:07.480 --> 0:10:11.400 in the winter time. Uh. And he became very well 0:10:11.440 --> 0:10:13.760 known for that, for getting things done because the city 0:10:13.800 --> 0:10:16.520 couldn't get it done on their own. Curtis you back 0:10:17.040 --> 0:10:20.560 more your reaction. Adam's not getting out, but more than 0:10:20.880 --> 0:10:25.240 where is. So I would think that everybody, the three 0:10:25.280 --> 0:10:28.240 of you would really be focusing, you know, your attention 0:10:28.360 --> 0:10:32.760 more on Marxist Kami Mamdani because I think he's a 0:10:32.760 --> 0:10:35.600 disaster for New York City and he does have a 0:10:35.720 --> 0:10:36.880 lead in the polls. 0:10:37.280 --> 0:10:40.240 You're absolutely right, Seahn, And in fact, with Built de 0:10:40.320 --> 0:10:45.360 Blasio emerging as the mentor and Bernie Sanders coming in 0:10:45.400 --> 0:10:49.720 to Brooklyn tomorrow to embrace Johan Mandami. I now can 0:10:49.800 --> 0:10:52.080 explain to the people who really don't know much about 0:10:52.160 --> 0:10:55.079 Johan Mandami. He's the new face. But we realize that 0:10:55.160 --> 0:10:58.520 build the Blasio destroyed our city in eight years and 0:10:58.559 --> 0:11:03.440 he was basic a quasi socialist communist. He loved the 0:11:03.480 --> 0:11:05.920 socialists and communists. So now you're want to have a 0:11:06.040 --> 0:11:09.599 zor on Mondamion steroids. Remember James call me how the 0:11:09.679 --> 0:11:12.720 left hated him, the right hated him. In New York City, 0:11:12.840 --> 0:11:15.440 the left hates Phil de Blasio, the right hates Buil 0:11:15.520 --> 0:11:18.520 de Blazio. He is the most loathed mayor in the 0:11:18.559 --> 0:11:21.400 history of New York City. And now I go on 0:11:21.559 --> 0:11:23.839 the full scale attack because I'm the only law and 0:11:23.920 --> 0:11:27.240 order Kennedy. I'm the only candidate of the three who 0:11:27.280 --> 0:11:30.200 believes that illegal aliens should not vote, we should not 0:11:30.280 --> 0:11:33.000 be a sanctuary city, and we're not just going to 0:11:33.040 --> 0:11:36.960 be locking up too face Sean. In my administration, we're 0:11:37.000 --> 0:11:39.640 locking up gang bangers and dougs. And if you come 0:11:39.679 --> 0:11:43.920 in and shoplift, you're going to jail, no doubt where. 0:11:44.000 --> 0:11:46.920 And we're going after Alvin Bragg and all these das 0:11:46.960 --> 0:11:50.240 we're naming and shaming them, and we're putting pressure. And 0:11:50.320 --> 0:11:53.040 like I said, I can pave the way because I 0:11:53.160 --> 0:11:56.160 win this year, at least the phonic wings. Next year, 0:11:56.480 --> 0:11:58.960 we bring the state back to reality so they don't 0:11:59.000 --> 0:12:02.280 have to escape. Not only the boarder Georgia, South Carolina 0:12:02.320 --> 0:12:05.720 and North Carolina, Texas Tennessee. But we keep your areas red. 0:12:06.000 --> 0:12:09.360 It won't become purple, and we'll keep everyone blue in 0:12:09.480 --> 0:12:11.520 New York State and New York City. Shown I'll do 0:12:11.600 --> 0:12:13.880 that for you, well. 0:12:13.720 --> 0:12:16.720 I hope so for my friends like you that remain 0:12:16.880 --> 0:12:19.320 in New York City. So many people have left because 0:12:19.360 --> 0:12:24.800 of crime issues, quality of life issues, horrible schools, high taxes, burdens, 0:12:24.800 --> 0:12:27.520 some regulation, and all the things in between. I'm not 0:12:27.520 --> 0:12:30.240 sure if you read the article in the New York 0:12:30.240 --> 0:12:32.400 Posts today, mom Nani one on one, the pro crime 0:12:32.440 --> 0:12:36.040 agenda he won't disavow, and it goes into the history 0:12:36.040 --> 0:12:38.600 of his two you know, as a two term state assemblyman, 0:12:39.280 --> 0:12:44.680 and you know his defund dismantle no bail, reimagine the 0:12:44.720 --> 0:12:48.079 police identity that he has. He wants the full elimination 0:12:48.200 --> 0:12:52.240 of cash bail at taking the state's disastrous bail reform 0:12:52.320 --> 0:12:54.480 even further, by the way you can, I guess thank 0:12:54.600 --> 0:12:58.880 Andrew CuMo for that outright decriminalization of drug possession, prostitution, 0:12:59.440 --> 0:13:06.280 eliminating mandatory minimum sentences, retroactively lowering all maximum sentences, fighting 0:13:06.360 --> 0:13:11.160 construction of the Borough based jails to replace the soon 0:13:11.200 --> 0:13:14.720 to be closed Rikers Island. This guy doesn't want anybody 0:13:14.720 --> 0:13:17.000 in jail. What's gonna happen? And if this guy wins, 0:13:17.040 --> 0:13:19.839 God help New York City, nobody's gonna want to live there. 0:13:20.720 --> 0:13:24.240 Correct, It'll be the sequel to the escape from New York. 0:13:24.280 --> 0:13:27.160 Will have to call Kurt Russell out of retirement. There 0:13:27.160 --> 0:13:32.559 will be a Sean. I think you're right, person. They 0:13:32.559 --> 0:13:35.920 can stop this. These are Democrats, all three of them. 0:13:36.120 --> 0:13:40.160 You have Zorn Mandami the most extreme, but Eric Adams 0:13:40.160 --> 0:13:43.680 and Andrew Cuomo are Johann Light. They believe in the 0:13:43.760 --> 0:13:47.360 same things. It's the Democratic Party that has destroyed our state, 0:13:47.440 --> 0:13:49.880 destroyed our city, and they want to come and destroy 0:13:49.920 --> 0:13:53.080 a community, a city, a county, a state near you. 0:13:53.640 --> 0:13:56.320 I can stop them here with your help, with all 0:13:56.360 --> 0:14:00.000 of your listener's help, we stopped the socialists and communis 0:14:00.320 --> 0:14:03.160 anti semits in New York City and it will not 0:14:03.280 --> 0:14:06.760 begin to expand in other cities across America. And as 0:14:06.800 --> 0:14:10.000 I say, I swear to all of your listeners, you know, 0:14:10.120 --> 0:14:12.960 Curtis Leewa, over the years, I can do it, and 0:14:13.040 --> 0:14:17.040 at least the ponic becoming governor, it'll be a fabulous 0:14:17.080 --> 0:14:20.080 one two punch. Maybe the motivation to do that then 0:14:20.120 --> 0:14:24.880 in Illinois, in Massachusetts and California, so we can return sanity, 0:14:25.080 --> 0:14:28.680 law and order and safety to our country. People deserve 0:14:28.760 --> 0:14:32.880 that regardless of their politics, and the Democrats have forsaken them. 0:14:33.320 --> 0:14:36.920 They definitely have no doubt about it, Curtis. We're gonna 0:14:37.040 --> 0:14:39.120 watch it very closely. People want to get in touch 0:14:39.120 --> 0:14:40.080 with you. How do they do it? 0:14:40.760 --> 0:14:44.640 Just go to sliwa for NYC dot com That sliwa 0:14:45.000 --> 0:14:49.720 f o r NYC dot com. And I'm not getting out. 0:14:49.880 --> 0:14:52.040 I'm saving this city, Sean Hennity. 0:14:53.000 --> 0:14:55.040 All right, Curtis Lee. Where it's our hope that you 0:14:55.080 --> 0:14:57.000 do become the next mayor. You'd be the only one 0:14:57.000 --> 0:15:00.160 to clean it up for sure. Eight hundred nine four one. 0:15:00.480 --> 0:15:02.560 We mentioned it yesterday. We didn't have the audio of 0:15:02.600 --> 0:15:08.760 it yesterday. Squad leader AOC going after the likes of 0:15:08.800 --> 0:15:16.000 Hikeem Jeffries and Chucky Schumer for not supporting Marxist Kami Mamdani. 0:15:16.160 --> 0:15:18.640 Listen, because I am a Democrat, and what we do 0:15:19.360 --> 0:15:22.120 is that we use our primaries to settle our differences, 0:15:22.120 --> 0:15:24.800 and once we have a nominee, we rally behind that nominee. 0:15:25.080 --> 0:15:29.440 I am very concerned about the example that is being 0:15:29.480 --> 0:15:32.880 set by anybody in our party. I believe that we 0:15:32.960 --> 0:15:38.480 must set the example of supporting the party's nominee because 0:15:38.920 --> 0:15:43.040 it complicates that if an individual doesn't want to support 0:15:43.040 --> 0:15:47.240 the party's nominee now, it complicates their ability to ask 0:15:47.520 --> 0:15:54.120 voters to support any nominee later, whether that is mayoral, presidential, 0:15:54.480 --> 0:15:56.920 what have you. And so I think for the good 0:15:57.000 --> 0:16:00.960 of the party, we must put our different says aside 0:16:01.280 --> 0:16:02.960 and support our party's nominee. 0:16:04.120 --> 0:16:07.720 What if Chuck Schumer wants to support Andrew Como or 0:16:07.760 --> 0:16:11.800 Curtis leiwa, well, not Curtis, although he should if you 0:16:11.840 --> 0:16:14.960 want to really save New York City. Maybe the same 0:16:14.960 --> 0:16:19.760 thing with the King Jeffries. Maybe they both recognize that 0:16:20.320 --> 0:16:26.360 Marxist Kami Mumdani is going to backfire on the Democratic parties. 0:16:26.440 --> 0:16:30.640 I was discussing earlier in the show today, But definitely 0:16:30.880 --> 0:16:34.160 they are impotent when it comes to dealing with the 0:16:34.280 --> 0:16:36.720 radical base that has taken over their party. They live 0:16:36.760 --> 0:16:39.800 in a constant state of fear. If you don't think 0:16:39.880 --> 0:16:43.280 Chuck Schumer has one sleepless night after another. You can 0:16:43.280 --> 0:16:46.560 see the stress on his face because he knows if 0:16:46.600 --> 0:16:52.040 AOC primaries him, his career in DC is over, and 0:16:52.080 --> 0:16:56.320 it's very possible she may do it. Peter, California, the 0:16:56.440 --> 0:17:00.160 United Socialist utopia of Gavin Newsom, what's going on? 0:17:00.880 --> 0:17:04.919 Yes, oh, yes, Sean, I can't believe. It's crazy out there, 0:17:05.040 --> 0:17:07.360 crazy town. But I think a lot of it has 0:17:07.400 --> 0:17:11.320 to do in California anyway, with the opposing party, which 0:17:11.359 --> 0:17:14.920 is the Republican Party. And I think yesterday on display 0:17:15.359 --> 0:17:20.919 I felt it again nationally with the RFK Junior hearing. 0:17:21.119 --> 0:17:25.640 I'm you know, I thank god, thank god that JD. 0:17:25.800 --> 0:17:29.080 Vance came out immediately after and said that he called 0:17:29.080 --> 0:17:31.640 it what it was. It was pure political theater. Anybody 0:17:31.680 --> 0:17:36.680 watching that fiasco would see that it was so obvious, 0:17:37.080 --> 0:17:39.600 and then you know, he ultimately closed it by saying 0:17:40.000 --> 0:17:43.439 that the Democrats were full of Adam Schiff and it 0:17:43.560 --> 0:17:47.160 was perfect. However, my concern was Where were the Republicans 0:17:47.200 --> 0:17:55.639 on that committee. I mean, they were absolutely silent. The Crapo, Langford, Tillis, 0:17:55.800 --> 0:18:00.320 Bill Cassidy, John Barrosso, these guys were taking shots at 0:18:00.400 --> 0:18:01.160 RFK Jr. 0:18:01.280 --> 0:18:05.800 And I just, yeah, I got the distinct impression they 0:18:05.800 --> 0:18:09.919 don't understand RFK Jr. And frankly, it took me a 0:18:10.000 --> 0:18:12.639 little while, in fairness to get to understand him. And 0:18:13.119 --> 0:18:16.480 you got to understand one other thing, when when you 0:18:16.600 --> 0:18:22.160 talk about something like medicine, there is an institutionalist mindset. 0:18:22.280 --> 0:18:25.240 You know, they don't want to rock the boat. If 0:18:25.240 --> 0:18:29.159 somebody thinks outside the box, it's new to them. It 0:18:29.240 --> 0:18:34.040 is it is even iconoclastic and shocking to them. And 0:18:34.359 --> 0:18:37.679 I don't think they were hearing RFK yesterday. RFK is 0:18:37.760 --> 0:18:42.800 not taking away vaccines. He said it twenty times yesterday. 0:18:42.960 --> 0:18:45.679 People will have access to them, but they're also going 0:18:45.720 --> 0:18:50.159 to have access to information. So I kind of, you know, 0:18:50.359 --> 0:18:52.880 chalked it off to being that maybe I'm wrong, maybe 0:18:52.920 --> 0:18:53.360 you're right. 0:18:53.600 --> 0:18:58.159 We totally understand Sean. I'm also getting to understand, know 0:18:58.280 --> 0:19:01.000 and get familiar with urk jor what he stands for. 0:19:01.200 --> 0:19:03.000 I was watching your show last night. You had the 0:19:03.040 --> 0:19:06.199 FDA Commissioner Marty McCarey, and he was talking about what 0:19:06.240 --> 0:19:09.760 they're trying to accomplish is radical transparency. And I think 0:19:09.840 --> 0:19:12.679 in the data they're trying to get validity and what 0:19:12.760 --> 0:19:18.160 happened during COVID behind that. But to get radical transparency, 0:19:18.520 --> 0:19:21.000 you've got to have a team behind you that's that 0:19:21.119 --> 0:19:25.359 is going to fight to fight. I mean there's an 0:19:25.600 --> 0:19:29.320 entrenched radical bureaucracy there that's going to be fighting every 0:19:29.320 --> 0:19:33.160 single day. You cannot just sit back and basically say, well, 0:19:33.480 --> 0:19:36.080 r f K Junior from the Republicans, we're deeply concerned 0:19:36.080 --> 0:19:41.720 about what how you're approaching the the the vaccines, that 0:19:42.320 --> 0:19:47.240 is giving so much weaponry to a democratic party that 0:19:47.720 --> 0:19:51.680 all day traffic in our lives deception, and the media 0:19:51.760 --> 0:19:52.720 is right along with them. 0:19:52.800 --> 0:19:52.960 You know. 0:19:53.040 --> 0:19:55.840 Political Today came out and said that the GOP was 0:19:56.359 --> 0:19:59.359 deeply concerned about how our FK Junior is approaching his 0:19:59.760 --> 0:20:03.199 job up and the Republican Party is just feeding into that. 0:20:03.280 --> 0:20:05.600 I'm just really tired of it, Jean. One thing I 0:20:05.600 --> 0:20:07.520 would say, one thing I would ask of you, and 0:20:08.040 --> 0:20:09.840 I may be wrong and you can disagree with me, 0:20:10.160 --> 0:20:13.080 but I would love, I would absolutely love to have 0:20:13.160 --> 0:20:17.159 you and other conservative media pundits challenge these guys, and 0:20:17.240 --> 0:20:19.640 you do it all the time, but when you're interviewing 0:20:19.680 --> 0:20:23.600 these people, just challenge him on this fact that they 0:20:23.640 --> 0:20:26.560 are and you've done it. But I really do think 0:20:26.600 --> 0:20:29.680 we need to press these Republicans that are that are weak. 0:20:29.840 --> 0:20:34.760 And John Thune, he's responsible for selecting these people. Where 0:20:34.800 --> 0:20:37.600 is his head at? Is he really truly supporting Trump? 0:20:37.680 --> 0:20:40.439 He says he does, But if it wasn't for Donald 0:20:40.480 --> 0:20:45.400 Trump and his cabinet, this country would be in serious 0:20:45.440 --> 0:20:49.080 trouble the Republican Party. I was so frustrated John, as 0:20:49.119 --> 0:20:51.639 I've been frustrated for years. I live out here in California. 0:20:51.720 --> 0:20:54.159 You can't believe I moved out here in nineteen eighty. 0:20:54.400 --> 0:20:58.160 It was a totally different world the Republican Party in California, 0:20:58.200 --> 0:21:00.960 and Harmy Dylan called them out. She'd said, they're very 0:21:01.040 --> 0:21:04.359 nice people, but they don't know what they're doing, and 0:21:04.400 --> 0:21:08.240 that the result of that is Orange County turned to 0:21:08.320 --> 0:21:12.040 where I live turned blue, which is in thirty five years, 0:21:12.119 --> 0:21:14.720 that was just unheard of here where I live. 0:21:14.840 --> 0:21:16.440 So it's just a theme. 0:21:16.840 --> 0:21:19.679 I know you understand that you've talked about all the 0:21:19.720 --> 0:21:22.320 time and you have guests that echo that. But that's 0:21:22.320 --> 0:21:23.000 my frustration. 0:21:23.119 --> 0:21:26.760 Sir Peter, you may be one of the smartest callers 0:21:26.760 --> 0:21:31.160 we've had a long time. You're very, very insightful. There 0:21:31.240 --> 0:21:34.960 are challenges when you have people, as I was saying, 0:21:35.080 --> 0:21:38.000 with this institutional mindset, it's very hard for them to 0:21:38.040 --> 0:21:40.480 think out of the box. That really is. You know, 0:21:41.000 --> 0:21:43.920 Donald Trump has made it easier for people to do so. 0:21:44.240 --> 0:21:46.400 If you look at a lot of his proposals, they're 0:21:46.440 --> 0:21:49.120 all out of the box, they're all new. He does 0:21:49.160 --> 0:21:53.159 things his own way. He's not an institutionalist, He's an 0:21:53.160 --> 0:21:57.200 outsider to get these people to get on board. You're 0:21:57.280 --> 0:22:00.240 right in your criticism. I don't disagree with you at all. 0:22:00.400 --> 0:22:01.920 I think is going to be a little bit of 0:22:01.960 --> 0:22:03.639 a heavy lift. And I think the way you do 0:22:03.720 --> 0:22:06.720 it is during elections. You know, you think about primarying 0:22:06.800 --> 0:22:09.800 some of these people, and you know the only reason 0:22:09.880 --> 0:22:13.320 the president is able to get them on board is 0:22:13.359 --> 0:22:16.880 they just fear him to be very blunt and they 0:22:17.080 --> 0:22:20.119 fear the wrath of him. And you know it takes 0:22:20.119 --> 0:22:22.080 that strong a personality to make it work. 0:22:23.240 --> 0:22:25.320 Well, I mean, and it is working. I mean a 0:22:25.800 --> 0:22:28.880 Donald Trump has a huge following and we support him 0:22:28.920 --> 0:22:32.440 and we recognize as Republicans and citizens here that he's 0:22:32.440 --> 0:22:36.040 doing everything possible to save this country. I mean, I 0:22:36.080 --> 0:22:42.359 can't imagine with under the leadership of Waltz and Kamala Harris, 0:22:42.400 --> 0:22:45.560 where would this country be. So but the Republican Party 0:22:45.600 --> 0:22:47.399 needs to support this guy and they need to have 0:22:47.480 --> 0:22:50.960 this learn from him. Jadie Vance is learning from him. 0:22:51.160 --> 0:22:53.760 I mean I thought him coming back right away and 0:22:53.840 --> 0:22:58.080 saying that that was political theater, and basically it. 0:22:57.960 --> 0:23:00.080 Was even better than that. I thought he had the 0:23:00.119 --> 0:23:02.680 line of the day yesterday when when he came out 0:23:03.240 --> 0:23:07.320 and they and he talked about the left and how 0:23:07.560 --> 0:23:12.119 they you know, these are the same people that support, 0:23:12.280 --> 0:23:18.080 you know, off label use of of these medicines for kids. 0:23:18.920 --> 0:23:20.360 I thought it was pretty powerful. 0:23:21.320 --> 0:23:24.200 Yes, well, I mean, I'm glad he said he's in 0:23:24.240 --> 0:23:26.800
