Transcript
- 0:00Speaker 1: Well, let's get the latest on the weather from Ray Stagic.
- 0:03Speaker 1: You just heard from them a moment ago. But we
- 0:05Speaker 1: want to get an extended forecast and talk about some specifics,
- 0:09Speaker 1: especially about how much rain we got and how much
- 0:11Speaker 1: rain we're going to get over the next couple of days.
- 0:14Speaker 1: So Ray Stage, I guess here wo or Weather Channel meteorologist. Ray,
- 0:19Speaker 1: you know, I want to get the rain totals. That's
- 0:23Speaker 1: one of the big things, because I know that they
- 0:25Speaker 1: were enormous in some areas. But as I'm looking I
- 0:28Speaker 1: just heard your forecast, and I'm looking ahead on the
- 0:31Speaker 1: forecast that you send, and I see showers over the
- 0:34Speaker 1: next several days. Are we talking about flooding now?
- 0:39Speaker 2: Depends on where you are. I think today will be
- 0:41Speaker 2: the last of the flood risk, and most of that
- 0:44Speaker 2: now is out into Suffolk County. It's Pairfield County, Connecticut,
- 0:47Speaker 2: and as you go up the Hudson Valley still warning
- 0:50Speaker 2: in Putnam County, there's a flash flood warning that's going
- 0:54Speaker 2: to be an effector this morning they've extended. It's also
- 0:56Speaker 2: for northern Westchester County, and then in Long Island or
- 1:00Speaker 2: on Long Island, we've got Suffolk County a flood advisory
- 1:03Speaker 2: till six forty five where there's some heavy rain, and
- 1:05Speaker 2: even into Fairfield County, Connecticut flood warning also into southwestern
- 1:10Speaker 2: New Haven County as well as southern Fairfield County. So
- 1:14Speaker 2: I do think the flood threat's gonna beast and north
- 1:16Speaker 2: and should start tapering off today and then we get
- 1:18Speaker 2: into tomorrow the more scattered stuff, and then Friday maybe
- 1:23Speaker 2: some dryer air trying to get back in here. But
- 1:26Speaker 2: some of the totals, as you were mentioning, Larry, were excessive,
- 1:30Speaker 2: and as we said yesterday, you know, more widespread, but
- 1:33Speaker 2: still didn't mean everybody was going to get flooding. And
- 1:36Speaker 2: right around the five boroughs in western Nassau County we
- 1:39Speaker 2: saw I'm going to say, only between about a half
- 1:42Speaker 2: and three quarters of an inch. You got into North
- 1:45Speaker 2: Jersey around Patterson almost four inches of rain, four point
- 1:50Speaker 2: six y five in Hackettstown four point one, four Lebanon.
- 1:53Speaker 2: So there was this pocket in North Jersey around persipone
- 1:57Speaker 2: and back on off and toward the north and west
- 1:59Speaker 2: of that and out near places like you know, let's
- 2:03Speaker 2: say Stuartsville, where there's three four point sixty five inches
- 2:06Speaker 2: where we had three to four inches of very heavy
- 2:08Speaker 2: rainfall and some leftover flooding there, and also as you
- 2:11Speaker 2: went north, some very heavy rain almost five inches at
- 2:15Speaker 2: cold Spring five point two eight up further north of that,
- 2:17Speaker 2: up near the Shokean Reservoir. But it kind of got
- 2:21Speaker 2: the picture where it rained and we got most of
- 2:23Speaker 2: the rainfall. It rained hard and very hard, and we
- 2:26Speaker 2: have some big time problems with flooding. But a lot
- 2:28Speaker 2: of that's going well north up near the Capitol District
- 2:30Speaker 2: now and out into eastern Long Island and especially into
- 2:34Speaker 2: parts of New England.
- 2:35Speaker 3: As we head on through today, we'll see now ray again.
- 2:39Speaker 3: This is taking on the same phenomenon we've never really
- 2:42Speaker 3: had before. You get drenched, I mean it comes down
- 2:47Speaker 3: in buckets throughout northern New Jersey, hits your real hard,
- 2:51Speaker 3: and then all of a sudden, you think a rainbow
- 2:54Speaker 3: is going to appear and it's peace, love and happiness.
- 2:58Speaker 3: Oh no, it's not too bad, all of a sudden
- 3:01Speaker 3: an hour later to boom again. I don't ever remember
- 3:06Speaker 3: rain coming down like that before, where it hits you
- 3:09Speaker 3: once real hard, it dissipates, the sun comes out a
- 3:13Speaker 3: little bit, and then all of a sudden comes back
- 3:15Speaker 3: for like a second bite.
- 3:18Speaker 4: Yeah.
- 3:18Speaker 2: I when you get in the summertime, these areas of
- 3:21Speaker 2: low pressure, you don't see that a lot, meaning an
- 3:24Speaker 2: organized area of low pressure, but you can see it
- 3:26Speaker 2: this morning. And what that does the rotation around you.
- 3:29Speaker 2: You kind of get these rounds of rain and thunderstorms,
- 3:32Speaker 2: and the intensity, as you'd mentioned, seems to have been
- 3:35Speaker 2: greater over the past. You know, let's say x amount
- 3:37Speaker 2: of time for the month July, I think New York
- 3:40Speaker 2: City's had I think it's twelve flood warnings issued, and
- 3:45Speaker 2: I think that's a record for any month, for at
- 3:48Speaker 2: least New York City. So the stats something like that.
- 3:51Speaker 2: I kind of heard it was looking researching it this
- 3:53Speaker 2: morning and passing either way. We've had an exceptional number
- 3:58Speaker 2: of flash flood warnings around the city, and you know,
- 4:01Speaker 2: a larger number than we've had in the past of
- 4:04Speaker 2: flood events. Now what that leads to is, you know,
- 4:06Speaker 2: will we have more in the future. I think that's
- 4:08Speaker 2: the big question and maybe something that you're trying to
- 4:10Speaker 2: get at.
- 4:11Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm not even talking about isolated flooding. I'm talking
- 4:15Speaker 1: about and I know you mentioned the areas that normally
- 4:17Speaker 1: flood and of course that's what we're all talking about.
- 4:20Speaker 1: But I mean I'm talking about like river flooding. Passaic
- 4:23Speaker 1: is that is the Passaic River for instance, is that
- 4:27Speaker 1: threatened with this flooding over the next couple of days
- 4:29Speaker 1: because of the rain we've already had.
- 4:33Speaker 2: Yeah, parts of the Passaic may become a little bit
- 4:37Speaker 2: more swollen than it are right now. Right now they're
- 4:39Speaker 2: looking at maybe some minor flooding. So over the next
- 4:44Speaker 2: couple of days, it's not going to get any worse.
- 4:46Speaker 2: As I said, the edge of the rainfall, the heaviest
- 4:49Speaker 2: rain is now east of that and going as we'd said,
- 4:51Speaker 2: north northeast of the city and out into New England.
- 4:55Speaker 3: Well, Ray, I want to tell you I'm doing my part.
- 4:57Speaker 3: In New York City, there was a great Greek philosopher
- 5:00Speaker 3: called Diogenes. He would roam the streets of Athens with
- 5:04Speaker 3: a lantern and he would go up to people and say,
- 5:07Speaker 3: I'm looking for one, honest man. Never did find one.
- 5:11Speaker 3: I've walked out with my trusty stickball bat, and I
- 5:14Speaker 3: go to the catch basins the sewers, and if the
- 5:17Speaker 3: stickball bat does not go down to the grate because
- 5:21Speaker 3: of all the silt that's built up all the flotsam
- 5:24Speaker 3: and jetsam. I call the sewer department, you know, the
- 5:28Speaker 3: old ed Norton guy who never answers the phone any
- 5:31Speaker 3: longer because you just get put on hold. And I
- 5:34Speaker 3: keep reporting them because if they don't clean out the
- 5:37Speaker 3: catch basins, and now I'm proving that, Hey, if a
- 5:40Speaker 3: stickball bat can't go down the sewer grating, then that's
- 5:45Speaker 3: backed up. So any accumulation more than an inch, it's
- 5:50Speaker 3: going to back up, and it's gonna start flooding into
- 5:52Speaker 3: the nearby sidewalks and eventually go down into the basements
- 5:55Speaker 3: and cause all kinds of chaos. So there are some
- 5:57Speaker 3: answers that a lot of municipalwers that ease and counties
- 6:00Speaker 3: can take. But I just don't see efforts anyone going
- 6:05Speaker 3: to clean out those catch basins.
- 6:07Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean that's a big problem. And the problem
- 6:09Speaker 2: too with a lot of the apartments actually below street
- 6:13Speaker 2: level too, So I don't you can't solve that one, right,
- 6:16Speaker 2: So you got two problems that either could be solved
- 6:18Speaker 2: in one that can't be solved. So we hope that
- 6:19Speaker 2: we stay away from some of these heavier rain events.
- 6:23Speaker 2: We may get back into a little bit wetter weather patterns.
- 6:25Speaker 2: I look ahead late the weekend early next week, is
- 6:28Speaker 2: it going to be as heavy a rain as this
- 6:30Speaker 2: that we're seeing right now? A little too early to say,
- 6:33Speaker 2: but I think after a beautiful Friday, Saturday and probably
- 6:36Speaker 2: most of Sunday, we could see the showers and thunderstorm's
- 6:39Speaker 2: return next week.
- 6:41Speaker 5: That was not good.
- 6:44Speaker 2: I just you know what you should say speaking of philosophers, right.
- 6:48Speaker 6: But you know what, I don't know.
- 6:50Speaker 7: I thought you got something to what Curtis was saying. Yesterday,
- 6:54Speaker 7: I saw a sewer like a geyser popping. The water
- 6:59Speaker 7: was up, I mean into the air from the steward,
- 7:04Speaker 7: probably because it couldn't go down.
- 7:06Speaker 1: Yeah, yes, somewhere somewhere.
- 7:11Speaker 2: And there's times too, whether it's clean catch basins or not,
- 7:14Speaker 2: that the rain comes down so hard that the drainage
- 7:17Speaker 2: just can't keep up. So we do, and we have
- 7:20Speaker 2: had events like that too, So you know, it's not
- 7:23Speaker 2: always that things by the municipalities aren't getting a proper attention.
- 7:28Speaker 2: Sometimes it just rains too damn hard.
- 7:30Speaker 1: Now, let me ask him one question about about the
- 7:32Speaker 1: next couple of days, because there was something interesting he
- 7:35Speaker 1: said to you, and that was he was concerned about
- 7:37Speaker 1: the the the events next week. But as I'm looking
- 7:40Speaker 1: at at your forecast rain today, rain, tonight, rain, Thursday,
- 7:45Speaker 1: all possible rain again on Sunday, but you seem to
- 7:49Speaker 1: be fairly confident. Well, it says chance of showers on Sunday.
- 7:54Speaker 2: No, Well, when you say rain, I think the perspective
- 7:59Speaker 2: is it's basically the rain all day, so what it
- 8:02Speaker 2: you know, it says showers, but it's going to be
- 8:04Speaker 2: scattered stuff, so.
- 8:05Speaker 1: Okay, so you're not concerned. So when it starts raining
- 8:08Speaker 1: over the next couple of days, you're not concerned at all.
- 8:11Speaker 1: That not until next week.
- 8:13Speaker 2: No, any concern would be most likely today and probably
- 8:17Speaker 2: first half of the day, and then it's just scattered stuff,
- 8:20Speaker 2: you know, more typical thunderstorms, widely scattered Saint Day tomorrow,
- 8:25Speaker 2: and then even on Sunday, just a few showers. I
- 8:27Speaker 2: think you end up, especially Thursday and Sunday, the next
- 8:31Speaker 2: other chances of rain, with more hours of dry weather
- 8:34Speaker 2: at any one given point than we will wet. And
- 8:37Speaker 2: then early next week maybe the copverage gets a little
- 8:39Speaker 2: bit better. Ready to get out there and talk about
- 8:41Speaker 2: intensity yet, but it may be a couple of days
- 8:44Speaker 2: of on again, off again thunderstorms and rain showers.
- 8:47Speaker 3: Got it well dealing with both. You guys, you know
- 8:49Speaker 3: your weather wonks. I was the weather guy over in
- 8:52Speaker 3: San Diego. You were matching credentials yesterday. I didn't understand
- 8:56Speaker 3: what the hell you guys were talking about, so I
- 8:58Speaker 3: get a little tension. But I want to bring you
- 9:00Speaker 3: back to a ute. It's just something that everybody can
- 9:03Speaker 3: identify with. There were two things. If it didn't rain,
- 9:07Speaker 3: you said, we got to get Native Indians to do
- 9:09Speaker 3: a rain dance. And then if it rained too much.
- 9:12Speaker 3: Don't you remember we kids? I remember in kindergarten, rain, rain,
- 9:16Speaker 3: go away, Come again another day. Little Curtis wants to play.
- 9:21Speaker 3: Come again another day. Sun's sun out. You stay warm,
- 9:25Speaker 3: us up for all the day. Don't you remember that
- 9:29Speaker 3: nursery rhyme?
- 9:29Speaker 8: I do.
- 9:33Speaker 9: Far as you?
- 9:37Speaker 3: Oh another shot? You took a shot at Larry yesterday.
- 9:40Speaker 3: Now you're taking a shot of beer. I like to extended.
- 9:46Speaker 1: Listen. I'm not a meteorologist. I was not trying to
- 9:49Speaker 1: match credentials with you. By yes, it was mono, not
- 9:56Speaker 1: at all me matching with you. I used to know
- 10:01Speaker 1: Tim Flannery, who was a baseball player, and he got
- 10:03Speaker 1: up and he got his first hit, and he gets
- 10:05Speaker 1: to first base, and Pete Rose is at first base
- 10:08Speaker 1: and he looks at him and he goes. He said,
- 10:10Speaker 1: Joe says, who the hell are you? And he said,
- 10:13Speaker 1: I'm the guy that's going to break all your records?
- 10:15Speaker 1: And he said, you won't get enough at bats to
- 10:17Speaker 1: break my records. That's how I feel. You were at
- 10:20Speaker 1: first base and I just got the first base.
- 10:25Speaker 3: His Sonny Albany evidentials.
- 10:27Speaker 1: Did you hear him yesterday.
- 10:32Speaker 3: Laboring away about barometers?
- 10:34Speaker 5: That was five years, by the way, five Really?
- 10:37Speaker 1: Did he fail his fourth year? Is that to happen?
- 10:41Speaker 4: Oh?
- 10:42Speaker 7: Ray?
- 10:43Speaker 2: There were reasons why we were there longer than we
- 10:45Speaker 2: needed to be.
- 10:48Speaker 1: Day, Oh Race, that might be a sore point. Sorry,
- 10:52Speaker 1: Ray raised Age, a w o R Weather Channel meteorologist.
- 10:55Speaker 8: Thanks a lot of established For anything.
- 10:57Speaker 3: I gotta win and win and win and win and
- 10:58Speaker 3: win and win and win a uh mega millions. And
- 11:02Speaker 3: it wasn't Natalie, it's been styling and profiling around here
- 11:06Speaker 3: with her ticket. Nor was it you, Larry. Now, I
- 11:10Speaker 3: don't play these various games, but I know a lot
- 11:12Speaker 3: of people do. I mean? Sometimes I'll go into like
- 11:15Speaker 3: a Budego grocery store. There are more people lined up
- 11:20Speaker 3: to get their New York Lottery tickets than there are
- 11:23Speaker 3: to buy the basic staples, you know, bread and milk. So, Natalie,
- 11:29Speaker 3: you were a loser again on this Mega million jackpad
- 11:32Speaker 3: eight hundred million payout?
- 11:34Speaker 5: Was that a loser? I am a winner? I am
- 11:37Speaker 5: a winner of the Mega millions.
- 11:40Speaker 3: What did you win? Hugots bupkis?
- 11:43Speaker 5: I had the Mega ball and one number, so I
- 11:47Speaker 5: won fourteen bucks.
- 11:48Speaker 3: Wow, that'll cover your congestion pricing coming into work.
- 11:51Speaker 7: It actually exactly will because I paid five bucks for
- 11:55Speaker 7: the ticket, so I won nine.
- 11:58Speaker 1: You paid five bucks five bucks for one.
- 12:00Speaker 5: That's what it is now.
- 12:02Speaker 1: I didn't know that. I thought it was three for one.
- 12:05Speaker 5: Nope, unless I got ripped off.
- 12:09Speaker 3: So for the non cognitionte out there, I don't think
- 12:13Speaker 3: there are many who don't know because so many people
- 12:15Speaker 3: play this or know of people who play it. What
- 12:17Speaker 3: are the differences? I get blitzed with all these pictures
- 12:22Speaker 3: of cards and people playing cards all the time, and
- 12:25Speaker 3: they asked me to touch it for luck? What are
- 12:28Speaker 3: they larry? Because they seem to be every.
- 12:30Speaker 1: Win between Mega and power Are are you asking what's
- 12:34Speaker 1: the difference between the two big games.
- 12:36Speaker 7: Yeah, it's none, not much, miss, except that Mega is
- 12:40Speaker 7: now five dollars a ticket. So they're saying that, you know,
- 12:43Speaker 7: the jackpot grows quicker. That's why it was up to
- 12:45Speaker 7: eight hundred million.
- 12:46Speaker 1: Right, R and so, But Powerball's now up to six hundred,
- 12:50Speaker 1: six hundred and something millions.
- 12:52Speaker 3: Let me ask you a question, why is sixty Seeing
- 12:54Speaker 3: that everybody who wins lately is from Florida.
- 12:57Speaker 5: I don't know.
- 12:57Speaker 1: Florida is a big winter. New York is the number
- 12:59Speaker 1: one winner in UH in Mega number one is Florida.
- 13:04Speaker 1: New Jersey's up there. What was the It was a
- 13:07Speaker 1: surprising one that was up the Indiana. That's it for
- 13:10Speaker 1: power Ball. They split it up between Powerball and Mega
- 13:13Speaker 1: and so, Yeah, Powerball has the number one for But
- 13:16Speaker 1: listen to this. Fifty to fifty seven percent of American
- 13:20Speaker 1: adults play the lottery easily.
- 13:22Speaker 3: I've seen that everywhere it crock stops, you name it. Hey,
- 13:26Speaker 3: you know you got a rig outside, Well, got to
- 13:28Speaker 3: get my lot old tickets.
- 13:29Speaker 1: It's one hundred and eighty one million people that play lottery.
- 13:33Speaker 1: They're making a lot of money. They can give us more,
- 13:36Speaker 1: they can charge less for the tickets. They're making a fortune.
- 13:39Speaker 3: Well, you know there was a time here, Larry, you'd
- 13:43Speaker 3: go to a street fair and they would have celebrities
- 13:45Speaker 3: there that would shine their photographs. And I got to
- 13:49Speaker 3: tell you I was at many of those, you know,
- 13:51Speaker 3: with shining my and I would look at a line
- 13:53Speaker 3: that would go two blocks for your London Vega, the
- 13:58Speaker 3: New York State Lottery woman will be like on channel
- 14:01Speaker 3: five and then I think channel eleven for a while,
- 14:03Speaker 3: you know, where the uh, the bulls would come up
- 14:06Speaker 3: with the numbers and she would read the New York
- 14:08Speaker 3: State Lottery. People wanted to touch her hand for luck.
- 14:13Speaker 3: They thought she was like the blessed Virgin Mary, you know,
- 14:17Speaker 3: say something, pick my number. You know, it's like she
- 14:21Speaker 3: can't pick your number, but oh, she would be so nice.
- 14:24Speaker 3: Two blocks everybody else, you know, maybe a dozen people.
- 14:28Speaker 3: That's how popular it was then, and it's gotten even
- 14:31Speaker 3: more popular.
- 14:31Speaker 1: Did you were you signing? Did you get a line?
- 14:34Speaker 3: Uh? Yeah, like six people everybody.
- 14:36Speaker 5: Did anybody want to rub your hands?
- 14:38Speaker 10: No?
- 14:39Speaker 3: No, But I'm telling you I've never seen anything like
- 14:43Speaker 3: that before, because as you pointed out, so many people
- 14:45Speaker 3: do play these games.
- 14:47Speaker 1: Yeah, and it used to be a big thing to watch.
- 14:49Speaker 1: Some people would, by the way, the news organizations used
- 14:53Speaker 1: to compete for that because only one would get it.
- 14:56Speaker 1: But think about that, that's your leading right at the
- 14:58Speaker 1: top of the news. You have all these people watching,
- 15:01Speaker 1: and so that was a big deal to try to
- 15:02Speaker 1: get that. Man, I wonder how much money they made
- 15:05Speaker 1: on that. They make a lot of money.
- 15:07Speaker 7: By the way, Larry, I was showing Larry and my
- 15:09Speaker 7: ticket that was five dollars and he hasn't given it back.
- 15:11Speaker 5: It's my fourteen bucks.
- 15:13Speaker 4: Man.
- 15:13Speaker 1: You know, possession is nine tenths of the law, so
- 15:17Speaker 1: this now may be my ticket. We have to go
- 15:20Speaker 1: to court over this ticket.
- 15:21Speaker 5: That is the most I've ever won on one ticket ever.
- 15:24Speaker 3: You know, it was so bad, right, Oh?
- 15:26Speaker 5: Yeah, because I pay like twice a year maybe.
- 15:29Speaker 3: And do they warn you that if you have a
- 15:31Speaker 3: gambling addiction problem, just call one eight hundred family.
- 15:35Speaker 5: Sure it's on the back somewhere.
- 15:37Speaker 7: But yeah, you know, we happened to be in a
- 15:40Speaker 7: liquor store yesterday buying a bottle of wine to hunker
- 15:43Speaker 7: down for the store, and then I was like, oh, look, Dave.
- 15:45Speaker 11: Had a million.
- 15:46Speaker 1: It's by one should I brag?
- 15:49Speaker 12: Oh?
- 15:49Speaker 5: How much of you won, Larry?
- 15:51Speaker 1: I won two hundred thousand, one time, two long two dollars. Yeah,
- 15:55Speaker 1: I'm playing on house money.
- 15:56Speaker 6: Now.
- 15:57Speaker 1: How much did they take cat? Oh my god, it
- 16:00Speaker 1: ended up well, they took more. I got a check
- 16:03Speaker 1: for one hundred and thirty seven thousand, but then I
- 16:07Speaker 1: had to pay city tax and I had to pay
- 16:09Speaker 1: a state tax, and so after it was all said
- 16:12Speaker 1: and done, it was less than one hundred thousand dollars.
- 16:14Speaker 1: Oh yeah, it really sucked. I was so upset. Now
- 16:21Speaker 1: let's get to the News at six thirty with Daria
- 16:24Speaker 1: Albinger Darius.
- 16:25Speaker 8: Hey, guys, before I start, can I just take care
- 16:27Speaker 8: of a little personal business here. It's my mom's birthday.
- 16:30Speaker 13: I just wow.
- 16:32Speaker 3: She's eighty five.
- 16:33Speaker 8: What's her name, Betsy. She's listening to us on the
- 16:36Speaker 8: iHeartRadio app. She lives near Washington, d C.
- 16:39Speaker 1: But she's wonderful.
- 16:40Speaker 8: Yeah, she's gonna be moving to the area though later
- 16:42Speaker 8: this year, so she'll be actually listening on the radio.
- 16:45Speaker 1: No, that's probably ad idea.

- 17:00Speaker 8: Yeah, she played every she played every week.
- 17:02Speaker 1: So who ended up getting the money?
- 17:03Speaker 8: I got a hundred bucks. But she called me because
- 17:09Speaker 8: I was the only person that she knew that was
- 17:11Speaker 8: up at the time that I was up.
- 17:13Speaker 5: The times like Dairy, I won the law.

- 17:28Speaker 8: talking the ferry. We have more storrong storms in the forecast.
- 17:31Speaker 8: They've already left some streets flooded, especially in New Jersey.
- 17:34Speaker 8: The US and Iran are exchanging ear strikes again. The
- 17:37Speaker 8: US and Saudi Arabia are targeting Iranian back groups in
- 17:40Speaker 8: Iraq after Iran launched ballistic missiles at US forces in
- 17:44Speaker 8: the Middle East. Legal is recalling some packaged cookies that
- 17:48Speaker 8: were sold at a number of its stores across the country.

- 18:01Speaker 8: oppose a construction of data centers across the US, the
- 18:05Speaker 8: ninety three year old country legend, posting on social media
- 18:08Speaker 8: that the only thing data centers do is destroy the
- 18:11Speaker 8: environment around them. Next new seven o'clock bulletins at once,

- 18:32Speaker 3: I'm going to be calling upon Spider Man to assist me.
- 18:35Speaker 3: We'll be talking about that up next. And the phenomenon
- 18:38Speaker 3: of receiving spam text messages, including my obsession now to
- 18:43Speaker 3: stop all those who with stealing mail and packages. But
- 18:46Speaker 3: you're more likely to get one of these spam text messages,
- 18:50Speaker 3: deceptive emails, and he ain't good. Scammers only text and
- 18:54Speaker 3: email you when they have your info, So how did
- 18:57Speaker 3: they get it? Data brokers sell it to them. They
- 18:59Speaker 3: put those data brokers on notice to stop immediately, but
- 19:04Speaker 3: you know they come back and then they'll do a
- 19:06Speaker 3: whack a mole for you. And there is a company
- 19:08Speaker 3: that does that for you. Get a pad and pen

- 19:25Speaker 3: they remove my data from four hundred and twenty two
- 19:28Speaker 3: data brokers, and Incognit doesn't slow down. They continue to
- 19:32Speaker 3: put more data brokers on notice. The end result, my
- 19:35Speaker 3: data is not online like it once was. Data brokers
- 19:38Speaker 3: aren't selling my data because they don't have my permission.
- 19:42Speaker 3: And remember what they're doing, it's legal, So you gotta

- 20:03Speaker 1: And see well, Mikey Cheryl did I think what everybody
- 20:08Speaker 1: expected her to do, because now that she embarrassed the
- 20:13Speaker 1: Democratic Party by coming out and saying that she found
- 20:17Speaker 1: six thousand, six hundred illegals who were registered to vote
- 20:21Speaker 1: who shouldn't be, proving that Donald Trump was right all
- 20:25Speaker 1: along by saying they're illegals on the roles, even though
- 20:28Speaker 1: the Democratic Party said over and over and over again
- 20:32Speaker 1: that that wasn't happening. She now has to save face
- 20:36Speaker 1: because all these Democratic governors across the country are now
- 20:39Speaker 1: being said, what have you looked at your roles? How
- 20:42Speaker 1: many are voting in your state? I mean New Jersey
- 20:44Speaker 1: had six thousand, six hundred, how many do you have? California,
- 20:47Speaker 1: for instance, probably has tens of thousands, if not more.
- 20:52Speaker 1: And so she embarrassed the Democratic Party. She didn't mean to.
- 20:56Speaker 1: She thought she was getting out in front of this
- 20:58Speaker 1: before she was exposed for it. That's the only reason
- 21:02Speaker 1: she did it. She didn't even stop it. Murphy had
- 21:04Speaker 1: actually stopped it, just didn't tell anybody. So now she
- 21:08Speaker 1: has to save face. So the Justice Department, the Trump
- 21:12Speaker 1: Justice Department, immediately gave her five days to turn over
- 21:16Speaker 1: all those names. And remember over four hundred voted. So
- 21:23Speaker 1: the Justice Department sent out a form and said, you
- 21:27Speaker 1: know you are under notice. We need all of those
- 21:30Speaker 1: names within five days. And because of that, you knew
- 21:35Speaker 1: this was coming.
- 21:36Speaker 14: I'm not in the habit of turning over private identifying
- 21:40Speaker 14: administration information.
- 21:45Speaker 5: Of the citizens of New Jersey.
- 21:48Speaker 14: This federal government is weaponizing the government against individuals that
- 21:53Speaker 14: disagree with them. They weaponized my private data against me
- 21:58Speaker 14: and my election, and so I working to protect people
- 22:01Speaker 14: and their private data.
- 22:03Speaker 1: Let me explain what she said at the end when
- 22:05Speaker 1: her private data was put out there, and she can't
- 22:09Speaker 1: prove that was the federal government that did that. I
- 22:13Speaker 1: don't know how they got it, but that was the
- 22:15Speaker 1: Chitarelli campaign running against her got the fact that she
- 22:18Speaker 1: was disciplined and couldn't walk in her graduation ceremony at
- 22:23Speaker 1: a military college. They say she wasn't allowed to walk,
- 22:26Speaker 1: and I'm not sure it was West Point, it may
- 22:27Speaker 1: have been one of the other ones. It was AOL
- 22:30Speaker 1: and so she wasn't allowed to walk with everybody. That's
- 22:34Speaker 1: the private information that she is talking about. Look, this
- 22:39Speaker 1: is going to be a lawsuit. It's going to cost
- 22:41Speaker 1: a lot of money. For the state to now fight this.
- 22:43Speaker 1: The federal government's not going to give up on this.
- 22:46Speaker 1: Of course, they're not going to give up on this.
- 22:48Speaker 1: I don't know who's going to win on the end,
- 22:50Speaker 1: but I do know this. It's going to cost the
- 22:52Speaker 1: New Jersey taxpayers a whole lot of money now to
- 22:57Speaker 1: defend this. And so here's a person that came men
- 23:00Speaker 1: saying they were going to stop frivolous lawsuits, and here
- 23:02Speaker 1: we already have a frivolous lawsuit. So she just stepped
- 23:06Speaker 1: in it. From the very beginning, she thought she was
- 23:09Speaker 1: going to be a hero, and now she has to
- 23:12Speaker 1: make up for it by standing up the Trump and
- 23:15Speaker 1: taking on Trump every single time she gets a chance
- 23:18Speaker 1: to do so.
- 23:19Speaker 3: I think we can agree her state attorney general is
- 23:23Speaker 3: going to try to fill a bus to this. There'll
- 23:25Speaker 3: be no settlement. They'll try to delay this. It's almost
- 23:30Speaker 3: somewhat similar to the paramount wanting to close its warned
- 23:34Speaker 3: deal and all of these state attorney generals who are
- 23:37Speaker 3: now filing objections and tying it up in court. So
- 23:41Speaker 3: I think her strategy is tie it up in court.
- 23:45Speaker 3: Just tie it up in court, delay, delay, get a
- 23:47Speaker 3: friend of the court, of the court brief maybe from
- 23:52Speaker 3: Tiss James in New York, some other friendly attorney generals
- 23:55Speaker 3: from blue states who are saying, yeah, if the Court
- 24:00Speaker 3: force this New Jersey to turn over that those lists,
- 24:04Speaker 3: then it's eventually, like the domino effect, it will affect us.
- 24:08Speaker 3: So I can easily see where the Democrats say, our
- 24:10Speaker 3: strategy here is just delay, delay, delay, delay.
- 24:14Speaker 1: Yeah, they're going to try to and on the other side,
- 24:16Speaker 1: they're going to try to fast track. Yes, they're going
- 24:18Speaker 1: to try to skip as many courts as they can
- 24:20Speaker 1: so it doesn't just go from a small court to
- 24:22Speaker 1: appellate court all the way up to the Supreme Court,
- 24:24Speaker 1: and it may end up in the Supreme Court, because
- 24:26Speaker 1: there's one of those issues that may end up in
- 24:29Speaker 1: the Supreme Court. The Supreme Court has been interesting in
- 24:31Speaker 1: their rulings though, because you would think, based on the Constitution,
- 24:36Speaker 1: the states are allowed to have control of their elections
- 24:40Speaker 1: in that state. The DOJ has been arguing, yes, but
- 24:44Speaker 1: we have say in federal elections, and when they voted,
- 24:48Speaker 1: that would have been a federal election. So it'll be
- 24:51Speaker 1: interesting to see what the DOJ does. They've they've ruled
- 24:55Speaker 1: for both.
- 24:55Speaker 3: Sides well, What I liked is what you brought into
- 24:57Speaker 3: our discussion yesterday how Senator Rick Scott of Florida has
- 25:03Speaker 3: basically slimmed and trimmed what the President wants to say
- 25:08Speaker 3: Voting Act and said, hey, let's.
- 25:11Speaker 15: Know that a lot of what drives revenue for these boys.
- 25:14Speaker 1: That was me looking for Scott. I'm sorry about that.
- 25:19Speaker 3: Well, you're looking for Scott tissue paper? Have you been
- 25:21Speaker 3: affected by you know what?
- 25:22Speaker 1: I was looking for?
- 25:23Speaker 3: The sound what it was, and it was brilliant. I
- 25:27Speaker 3: must credit him because all the ancillary items in this
- 25:30Speaker 3: bill have caused it to basically be put on pause.
- 25:34Speaker 3: And Thoom doesn't seem like he's gonna want to change
- 25:37Speaker 3: the way the filibuster is run. So Rick Scott, and
- 25:40Speaker 3: I'm gonna leave it to you because you said it masterfully,
- 25:43Speaker 3: has trimmed it down right, no frills. What would the
- 25:47Speaker 3: no frills?
- 25:47Speaker 1: He said, He's already talked to Democrats and Republicans and
- 25:51Speaker 1: what he wants to do is take out all the
- 25:53Speaker 1: stuff about the birth certificate, all the stuff about registration,
- 25:57Speaker 1: just say so they can get it done for this election.
- 26:00Speaker 1: Just say every state has to require at all of
- 26:05Speaker 1: their polling places that people show a photo ID. Doesn't
- 26:09Speaker 1: have to be a license, there has to be some
- 26:10Speaker 1: type of photo ID. Brilliant and by the way that
- 26:13Speaker 1: most of the states in the country already have that law.
- 26:16Speaker 3: California has that as an initiative and referendum this election cycle.
- 26:21Speaker 3: Nobody thought they'd ever get enough signatures in Bluer than
- 26:24Speaker 3: Blue California, but they did.
- 26:26Speaker 1: It's on the ballot. I think it's going to get
- 26:28Speaker 1: voted down, but this would make it the law of
- 26:31Speaker 1: the land. And I think you're right. I think it's
- 26:33Speaker 1: brilliant by Rick Scott that he does this, the Senator
- 26:37Speaker 1: from Florida, because this is something that will pass and
- 26:41Speaker 1: it will Also the problem with it is to you know,
- 26:44Speaker 1: if you want to think purely political, purely political, this
- 26:48Speaker 1: will make the Democrats look good because they're going to
- 26:52Speaker 1: go along with what eighty percent of the country wants,
- 26:55Speaker 1: and now this takes it albatross alf of their necks.
- 27:00Speaker 3: The next Spider Man Mania. I'm seeing these young men
- 27:04Speaker 3: flying all through the subways and streets of New York
- 27:07Speaker 3: City and I said, ah, must mean a movie's coming
- 27:10Speaker 3: down the pipe. But there's one problem. Nobody came and
- 27:16Speaker 3: asked me permission, and I'll tell you why. The way
- 27:20Speaker 3: they're promoting the new Spider Man movie, set to hit
- 27:24Speaker 3: every theater across the nation this weekend. But in the meantime,

- 27:59Speaker 3: the number one box office blast maybe of all time.
- 28:05Speaker 3: Well guess what on its heels? And I saw this
- 28:08Speaker 3: last Saturday. I'm on the L train going out to
- 28:10Speaker 3: the Brownsville Old Timers Day, you know, because I lived
- 28:14Speaker 3: in Brownsville for a while, and on the L train
- 28:16Speaker 3: going in on the L train coming back to these
- 28:18Speaker 3: young men addressed as Spider Man, and they jump on
- 28:21Speaker 3: the train and they're like climbing the poles and flying
- 28:25Speaker 3: from one pole to the other line. Wonder what the
- 28:27Speaker 3: hell is going on? Somebody's filming them up. Must be
- 28:31Speaker 3: a Spider Man movie. And now I've seen these young
- 28:33Speaker 3: men walk in the streets in Spider Man garb and
- 28:37Speaker 3: lo and behold. After five years of being away, no
- 28:43Speaker 3: Way Home. That was the last movie dropped. In twenty
- 28:45Speaker 3: twenty one, A new movie is being dropped cold, brand
- 28:49Speaker 3: new day, and they're already expecting to have lines movie
- 28:55Speaker 3: theaters selling out and maybe even eventually competing with Odyssey.
- 29:01Speaker 3: No ulysses, excuse me, Odyssey, I don am I uh.
- 29:04Speaker 3: And even our friend Johnny Oh, who never gives any
- 29:08Speaker 3: brand new movies a ravery review went God got Google
- 29:11Speaker 3: over this, God, oh my God. In the New York Posts,
- 29:13Speaker 3: he was all like, this is the best ever.
- 29:16Speaker 1: Want to hear a part of the trailer.
- 29:17Speaker 8: Yes, please, because I'm not just Peter Parker.
- 29:22Speaker 16: I'm Spider Man.
- 29:26Speaker 1: Faced with a thresh that can leave anyone.
- 29:29Speaker 3: Are you sure you want to do this? Scorpion? Do
- 29:30Speaker 3: you think I'm Scorpion? That's him going back into the
- 29:35Speaker 3: past in New York. And this is the problem I
- 29:38Speaker 3: have with all that he left us for five years
- 29:42Speaker 3: you know he vacated. He was globe trotting all over
- 29:46Speaker 3: the world. You didn't get a sign of Spider Man.
- 29:50Speaker 3: And let me take you to the location. All began
- 29:52Speaker 3: Stan Lee, the great creator of so many Marvel comics. Right,
- 29:57Speaker 3: he decided, I'm not gonna create like a Gotham figure
- 30:00Speaker 3: like Pat Man or Superman. I want like something that
- 30:05Speaker 3: all Americans can identify with. A neighborhood, a middle class,
- 30:09Speaker 3: quiet neighborhood. And that was Forest Hills. And the house
- 30:13Speaker 3: was the actual Parker house. The actual Parker family lived
- 30:16Speaker 3: in this house on twenty Ingram Street. And guess who
- 30:19Speaker 3: lived down the block, Curtis Lee or for a while.
- 30:23Speaker 3: And let me tell you. I'm walking down the street
- 30:25Speaker 3: with my two sons, right and I'm taking them to
- 30:27Speaker 3: McDonald Park where they want to build a statue to them,
- 30:30Speaker 3: and after this movie they probably will, and people would
- 30:33Speaker 3: be coming up to me. Hey, Curtis, you know Spider Man.
- 30:37Speaker 3: I did you realize he doesn't exists? Oh yeah, Peter Parker.
- 30:39Speaker 3: He lives at twenty Ingram Street. I've left mail there
- 30:43Speaker 3: for him before. Could you please make sure that Spider
- 30:47Speaker 3: Man gets this? And I'd be walking home with mail
- 30:50Speaker 3: all the time. I thought I was a mail carrier
- 30:53Speaker 3: for the United States Postal Service. Do you know that
- 30:56Speaker 3: they would have bags of mail at the local post
- 30:59Speaker 3: office for twenty Ingram Street was actually owned by the
- 31:04Speaker 3: Parker family. They ended up selling it because so many
- 31:08Speaker 3: people would come. It's like the Amityville horror House right
- 31:11Speaker 3: for two million dollars, Thank god, because people wanted to
- 31:15Speaker 3: This is Spider Man's house. Well, now he has returned,
- 31:19Speaker 3: and in honor of our very dear friend Johnny Oh,
- 31:21Speaker 3: he writes, Oh, Spider Man has returned to being a
- 31:26Speaker 3: friendly neighborhood vigilante in New York. Now, excuse me, there's
- 31:32Speaker 3: only one vigilante in New York. He's been away for
- 31:35Speaker 3: five years. It's Curtis Leewall. The documentary was done on me, vigilante.
- 31:41Speaker 3: I have no problem in sharing crime fighting with Spider Man,
- 31:46Speaker 3: but he would have to join me in solidarity. You know,
- 31:49Speaker 3: my newest mission is to stop all these mailbox bandits
- 31:52Speaker 3: wherever they are. We gotta do a shitt act. We
- 31:56Speaker 3: gotta somehow come together, because nobody's reached out to me
- 31:59Speaker 3: and said, maybe we sho ash the friendly neighborhood vigilantea
- 32:03Speaker 3: New York who already exists, Curtis Leela, not Dang who
- 32:06Speaker 3: got Spopkish.
- 32:08Speaker 1: I don't think it's going to happen, but I will
- 32:11Speaker 1: tell you this. You talked about it competing with Odyssey.
- 32:14Speaker 1: The expectations for Spider Man blows away, Odyssey blows it away.
- 32:20Speaker 1: They are expecting. Now Odyssey open to one hundred and
- 32:24Speaker 1: fifty million around their local in the United States and
- 32:29Speaker 1: two hundred and fifty million that made all its money
- 32:31Speaker 1: back globally. Listen to this opening projections two hundred and
- 32:37Speaker 1: thirty five to two hundred and fifty five million now
- 32:40Speaker 1: domestically globally five hundred and fifty to six hundred million.
- 32:48Speaker 1: This is like back in the old days. You know,
- 32:50Speaker 1: this is like Titanic. This is going to be everybody says,
- 32:54Speaker 1: this was supposed to be the summer that was going
- 32:56Speaker 1: to bring people back to the theaters. This will be
- 32:58Speaker 1: the summer that was going to bring back HOLLYO would.
- 33:00Speaker 1: Now we're seeing it. It's actually happening.
- 33:03Speaker 3: So one of both of you are going to scrape
- 33:05Speaker 3: the barnacles off your backside, get your rear in gear,
- 33:08Speaker 3: and actually one person here will have seen Odyssey in
- 33:11Speaker 3: a theater near you.
- 33:13Speaker 1: Oh, I'm going this weekend. Oh good good, Yeah, I'm
- 33:14Speaker 1: going to eight in the morning on Saturday to see.
- 33:18Speaker 3: The King Prussia Mall and.
- 33:21Speaker 1: The country with the Imax because they have Imax seventy millimeters,
- 33:25Speaker 1: which is what it was shot on.
- 33:26Speaker 7: I have to tell you, I was really curious. So
- 33:28Speaker 7: I went to Google Maps and looked up twenty Ingram
- 33:31Speaker 7: Street and Flushing. First off, they have it blurred. The
- 33:35Speaker 7: house is blurred, the only one on the block, and
- 33:38Speaker 7: it says Spider Man's home on Google.
- 33:41Speaker 3: Yes, oh my god, let me correct you, Natalie, miss
- 33:45Speaker 3: New Jersey. That is Forest Hills.
- 33:48Speaker 5: Oh well, you know what Google says, Flushing. I put
- 33:50Speaker 5: in Forest Hills. It says Flushing.
- 33:52Speaker 3: No, it's not Flushing.
- 33:53Speaker 5: We're going to have a debate.
- 33:55Speaker 3: I had to be his mail carrier for ye and
- 33:58Speaker 3: my kids would say, you know, spy Man, Daddy.
- 34:02Speaker 1: Man Zor in, Mom, Donnie's opening his first supermarket and
- 34:06Speaker 1: people are upset. We'll talk about it after the seven o'clock.
- 34:09Speaker 17: News you as well.
- 34:10Speaker 1: It was one of his key campaign promises. Zor and
- 34:13Speaker 1: Mam Donnie said there would be government run grocery stores
- 34:17Speaker 1: that would sell at a lower price, and he's coming
- 34:20Speaker 1: through with that promise. The first one, as you know,
- 34:24Speaker 1: as he announced several weeks back, will be in East
- 34:26Speaker 1: Harlem in the space known as Law Marquita. But now
- 34:30Speaker 1: the announcement this week is there's gonna be everyone in
- 34:34Speaker 1: all five boroughs. It all sounds great, doesn't it. Everything
- 34:38Speaker 1: is going to be thirty percent less. Well, it's not
- 34:42Speaker 1: great for the badegas that are going to be in
- 34:44Speaker 1: the area because they're gonna be undercut in prices, and
- 34:48Speaker 1: now they are getting together to sue claiming the seventy
- 34:53Speaker 1: million dollar project will create unfair competition for nearby stores.
- 34:59Speaker 1: Let's start with Mom, Donnie, and then we'll get Because
- 35:02Speaker 1: you know, Curtis has a long history with this, we
- 35:05Speaker 1: can talk to him about it. As a matter of fact,
- 35:07Speaker 1: he ran against Aramm Donnie and heard him talk about
- 35:09Speaker 1: this time and time again. But let's talk. Let's start
- 35:12Speaker 1: with the announcement.
- 35:13Speaker 3: Here's how it will work.
- 35:15Speaker 15: Once a month, our five city run grocery stores will
- 35:18Speaker 15: set prices for this core set of goods at thirty
- 35:20Speaker 15: percent below typical retail prices, no exceptions, no gimmicks. The
- 35:25Speaker 15: savings will last for the entire month. That means no
- 35:28Speaker 15: weekly fluctuations nor sticker shock at the checkout line, and
- 35:32Speaker 15: is in.
- 35:33Speaker 1: His announcement earlier this week on Monday. He also talked
- 35:36Speaker 1: about the possible competition.
- 35:38Speaker 15: We know that a lot of what drives revenue for
- 35:40Speaker 15: these bodegas grocery stores, those are things that make it
- 35:43Speaker 15: possible for them to continue to operate. Those are not
- 35:45Speaker 15: things we have any interest in competing for.
- 35:47Speaker 1: So he's taken a few things, like you know, alcoholic
- 35:50Speaker 1: beverages and cigarettes off of it, and so he's he's
- 35:54Speaker 1: throwing a bone to the Bordega owners. But it's the prices.
- 35:58Speaker 1: It's the prices that are upset about.
- 36:00Speaker 15: Once a month, our five city run grocery stores will
- 36:03Speaker 15: set prices for this course set of goods at thirty
- 36:05Speaker 15: percent below typical retail prices, no exceptions, no gimmicks. The
- 36:10Speaker 15: savings will last for the entire month. That means no
- 36:13Speaker 15: weekly fluctuations nor sticker shock at the checkout line.
- 36:17Speaker 1: Now, like every socialist program, it all sounds good in theory,
- 36:22Speaker 1: it's always going to get you votes. But Curtis, there
- 36:25Speaker 1: are many pitfalls that you've been laying out brilliantly over
- 36:30Speaker 1: the last couple of weeks.
- 36:31Speaker 3: Well thank you. And also I was a key man
- 36:34Speaker 3: at the Great Atlantic cam Pacific tea company, biggest store
- 36:38Speaker 3: that AMP had in the five boroughs. You know, eventually
- 36:42Speaker 3: they went chapter eleven. So I know about ordering, I
- 36:45Speaker 3: know about the small margins you have. It's like a
- 36:49Speaker 3: penny nickel business on most things. You really may hit
- 36:52Speaker 3: on the meat, the fish, the other things you lose
- 36:56Speaker 3: money on. So notice he says thirty percent. What does
- 37:00Speaker 3: he say? A thirty percent cut? This is part of
- 37:02Speaker 3: a national campaign because food prices are up thirty three
- 37:07Speaker 3: percent across the country, the highest grocery price spike in
- 37:11Speaker 3: fifty years. So he's trying to take advantage of that. See,
- 37:14Speaker 3: we're providing you for those things that you need desperately,
- 37:20Speaker 3: you know, the vegetables, the greens, the meat, the fish.
- 37:26Speaker 3: We're bringing those prices down. Now, obviously it's going to
- 37:29Speaker 3: be subsidized by us, the sucker taxpayers, but it's a
- 37:33Speaker 3: very innovative way that he's done this. He's not choosing
- 37:36Speaker 3: like a just low income area. He's choosing areas where
- 37:41Speaker 3: it's pouring, impoverished. The first one will be Hunt's Point,
- 37:45Speaker 3: which is right near where Spotford used to be. This
- 37:47Speaker 3: was the juvenile detention facility, high crime area. Maybe five
- 37:52Speaker 3: bull diggers in the area. No supermarkets, and I mean
- 37:56Speaker 3: it's shoplifters heaven. So he is not running the city's
- 38:00Speaker 3: not running it. What he's doing is he's looking for
- 38:03Speaker 3: grocers or firms to operate them, and then he's gonna
- 38:07Speaker 3: subcontract it out to them. So he's wise enough to realize,
- 38:10Speaker 3: we don't know this business. You know, we're gonna we're
- 38:13Speaker 3: gonna get killed. But if you already run a supermarket
- 38:17Speaker 3: and we'll see who appeels themselves off from the many
- 38:21Speaker 3: supermarket owners or bodegga owners, we'll subcontract it to you
- 38:25Speaker 3: to run it, and the city supermarket will now have
- 38:29Speaker 3: a private grocery store operator. So that's one unique facet.
- 38:34Speaker 3: The other thing, and this is where he's gonna lose
- 38:37Speaker 3: all of his money. Security operators will be responsible for
- 38:41Speaker 3: managing crime and loss prevention. So when you're in a
- 38:44Speaker 3: supermarket or even the bodega business or grocery store business,
- 38:48Speaker 3: it's not just the shoplifters who come in like a locusts,
- 38:51Speaker 3: you know, through the cornfield, but in house, you lose money,
- 38:55Speaker 3: your employees steal from you, not just out of the
- 38:58Speaker 3: casht yourself, but they stuffed products down there, bvds and
- 39:02Speaker 3: they're fruit of the loom, you know, from the meat section,
- 39:04Speaker 3: the fish section. He's gonna get killed there because once
- 39:08Speaker 3: it opens up, people are gonna say, oh, that's the
- 39:12Speaker 3: Zoran store. He's not going to arrest us. He knows
- 39:15Speaker 3: we're poor and impoverished. So how does he all of
- 39:18Speaker 3: a sudden now enforce security in the store when he's
- 39:22Speaker 3: leaving it to private security firms and he knows the
- 39:25Speaker 3: police are not going to respond because they know it's
- 39:28Speaker 3: a waste of time the way it is now with
- 39:30Speaker 3: no cash bail and the way das don't prosecute these crimes.
- 39:34Speaker 1: So answer your own question. If he's hiring private security
- 39:39Speaker 1: and many times when somebody's stealing from the store, they
- 39:41Speaker 1: just let them go. They because they know nothing's going
- 39:44Speaker 1: to happen to them. What are they going to do
- 39:46Speaker 1: different or are they going to do anything different? And
- 39:48Speaker 1: if not, there's gonna be a huge loss.
- 39:50Speaker 3: Well was he he lived in as story? You know,
- 39:54Speaker 3: after he came over here, he went to private high school,
- 39:57Speaker 3: he went to Aboden College up Main. He's never really
- 40:01Speaker 3: lived in an urban area with a high crime, so
- 40:04Speaker 3: he's thinking, you know, this is gonna be like Traded
- 40:06Speaker 3: Joe's and as storyal whole foods in his story. Now
- 40:10Speaker 3: the benefit for the local residents. They're gonna finally get
- 40:14Speaker 3: fresh vegetables, fresh fruits, because man, you gotta walk a
- 40:17Speaker 3: few miles. They don't have farmers markers there. They don't
- 40:20Speaker 3: have co ops. You know, co ops generally in a neighborhood.
- 40:24Speaker 3: Uh well, you have a lot of professionals and you
- 40:27Speaker 3: know they'll pool their resources. You couldn't, you couldn't run
- 40:30Speaker 3: an operation like that. So it's a nice idea to
- 40:34Speaker 3: bring good food to the marketplace. But man, I don't
- 40:39Speaker 3: know how he can do it. And as he said,
- 40:41Speaker 3: he says, there's a caveat to you bodega owners. You
- 40:44Speaker 3: sell the lottery tickets. We had just discussed that as
- 40:47Speaker 3: you pointed out the cigarettes, the alcohol and the hot food,
- 40:50Speaker 3: because you know, you go to these places they have
- 40:53Speaker 3: the deli section, you know with the hot food that
- 40:55Speaker 3: we're we're not going to be selling hot food.
- 40:57Speaker 1: But you're still you know, they live on such a margin.
- 41:00Speaker 1: Their profit is so slim. You take away anything from them,
- 41:04Speaker 1: they're going to suffer. So I understand their lawsuit, But
- 41:07Speaker 1: bigger than that, we're all going to suffer because the
- 41:10Speaker 1: whole scenario you just pointed out is these places are
- 41:13Speaker 1: going to lose money. They have to lose money. So
- 41:16Speaker 1: as we're hiring people not only to do the security,
- 41:19Speaker 1: a security firm and someone to manage the whole thing
- 41:22Speaker 1: and run the whole thing and give them money, they're
- 41:24Speaker 1: not going to make their nut. They're not going to
- 41:26Speaker 1: have a profit. The only profit they're going to get
- 41:29Speaker 1: is promise from the city, which means we all have
- 41:33Speaker 1: to suck this up. So this is socialism the way
- 41:37Speaker 1: it works. We all pay so that other people can
- 41:43Speaker 1: afford groceries, even though we have to pay the same amount.
- 41:46Speaker 1: Now we're going to be paying so that other people
- 41:49Speaker 1: can have that, you know, socialism.
- 41:50Speaker 3: Now you had a store, your prices can ever be
- 41:53Speaker 3: locked in because all of a sudden, let's say there's
- 41:55Speaker 3: a shortage of cattle down in Texas and Oklahoma, price
- 41:58Speaker 3: to beef skyrockets. He said, no, we're going to keep
- 42:01Speaker 3: the prices at that level. Well, as you pointed out,
- 42:05Speaker 3: the price goes up at the hoost sale level. You
- 42:07Speaker 3: still got to pay that if you're a city supermarket.
- 42:10Speaker 3: So who pays the differential? You and me the taxpayer,
- 42:13Speaker 3: We subsidize it. I would have done this I if
- 42:17Speaker 3: I were him, because he is a democratic socialist. He
- 42:20Speaker 3: believes in these co ops that do exist, and like
- 42:23Speaker 3: places like Park Slope, they've voted for him, Clinton Hill,
- 42:27Speaker 3: the Lower East Side, open up a co op. See
- 42:30Speaker 3: if you can get the local residents to pool their resources,
- 42:33Speaker 3: then they determine what products are going to be there.
- 42:36Speaker 3: They also work it. You know, it's like a kibbutz
- 42:39Speaker 3: in Israel where everybody does the label. I would have
- 42:42Speaker 3: tried that first, But that ship is sailed. That ship
- 42:45Speaker 3: is sailed. They're gonna be government run. These are government
- 42:47Speaker 3: run regardless of if there is a middle man, it's
- 42:50Speaker 3: still government run.
- 42:51Speaker 1: And that means it's going to be run. All the
- 42:54Speaker 1: losses will be paid by us. Oh, this is what
- 42:57Speaker 1: people voted for. He told you what he was going
- 42:59Speaker 1: to do before he did it. You like the idea
- 43:02Speaker 1: of free prices, You know what, here's the big, dirty
- 43:04Speaker 1: little secret. Nothing is free, So don't fall for this.
- 43:09Speaker 1: In the future. Every time a democratic socialist tells you
- 43:11Speaker 1: something it's gonna be free, you're gonna pay for it.
- 43:14Speaker 3: The other thing is, don't think you're gonna buy brand labels.
- 43:17Speaker 3: Just like we talked a while back about Pathmark, the
- 43:20Speaker 3: successive Pathmark was the white label Aisle, which is the
- 43:25Speaker 3: label no label brands, you know, where basically you're buying
- 43:28Speaker 3: products that just say green beans, carriage, no frills, right,
- 43:34Speaker 3: no del monte.
- 43:35Speaker 1: Is that definite?
- 43:35Speaker 3: Yes, that's the uh. The private label brands, you know,
- 43:40Speaker 3: they you pay less, but a lot of times the
- 43:43Speaker 3: factory that makes it, it's the same product, they just
- 43:47Speaker 3: label it differently. So he's gonna try the old pathmark way.
- 43:51Speaker 3: But anyway you look at it, the margin is so slim.
- 43:54Speaker 3: We're gonna have to subsidize. Yes, And the bodega guys,
- 43:59Speaker 3: they got to under stand that they've been the only
- 44:02Speaker 3: means that people have relied on for a long time.
- 44:05Speaker 3: They don't really sell fresh foods and fresh vegetables. Boy,
- 44:08Speaker 3: if you ever go into some of those bodegas, you
- 44:11Speaker 3: look at the expiration date on some of those cans.
- 44:14Speaker 3: He said, you know, we're in the new century now,
- 44:17Speaker 3: nineteen ninety eight. Why is it still on the shelf.
- 44:21Speaker 3: Oh sorry, amigo. Sorry, So it'll be interesting. He's starting
- 44:26Speaker 3: in Hunts Point, where I would say, if you were
- 44:28Speaker 3: going to open up a city supermarket, it's desperately needed there.
- 44:31Speaker 3: And then, as you pointed out, Ali Marquette in East
- 44:35Speaker 3: Harlem or they used to call Spanish Harlem at Salt
- 44:38Speaker 3: City property, so you don't have to pay rent. It's
- 44:40Speaker 3: going to cost us initially, and you know the price
- 44:42Speaker 3: is always going to go up. Seventy million dollars he claims,
- 44:46Speaker 3: we'll have five by the time he's running for re election.
- 44:49Speaker 6: Uh.
- 44:50Speaker 3: And he's going to take a victory lap on this
- 44:52Speaker 3: because he's going to say, well, prices are up across
- 44:55Speaker 3: the United States, you know, over thirty percent, and we're
- 44:59Speaker 3: trying to help the average, poor, impoverished person.
- 45:03Speaker 1: Coming up next, Well, they're not gonna be selling wine
- 45:07Speaker 1: at these new government run stores, and any place they
- 45:10Speaker 1: are selling wine, they're having a problem because people not
- 45:15Speaker 1: buying it anymore. So who is drinking? Plus a chance
- 45:20Speaker 1: to see deep purple in Kansas at a twenty five.
- 45:23Speaker 1: Eating is one of those basic things we do, but
- 45:26Speaker 1: behind every meal, your body is carrying out thousands of
- 45:30Speaker 1: invisible calculations. Usually you never think about it until something
- 45:35Speaker 1: goes wrong. Check out the podcast All About It search
- 45:39Speaker 1: for Eating Interrupted on the free iHeartRadio app see Chris Curtis.
- 45:44Speaker 1: Do you drink wine?
- 45:47Speaker 3: I used to? Unfortunately once I ended up with Kaleidas
- 45:51Speaker 3: Hillie Eidish and then Crohn's disease. I had a half
- 45:54Speaker 3: a glass of red wine at a philanthropic event and
- 45:58Speaker 3: I ended up on the floor. Oh gee, but but
- 46:00Speaker 3: I I enjoy Remember I grew up on an Italian
- 46:03Speaker 3: side of the sure sure glass of wine with dinner
- 46:06Speaker 3: with my grandfather, Fio from the Big Ernest and Julio
- 46:10Speaker 3: the Big like a four gallon bottle.
- 46:14Speaker 1: How young were you when they allowed you to drink wine?
- 46:18Speaker 1: Little ship at twelve? There you go, Natalie, You're a
- 46:22Speaker 1: wine drinker.
- 46:22Speaker 5: I do enjoy a glass of wine. I wouldn't say a.
- 46:25Speaker 1: Lot, but yeah, do you How many times a week
- 46:28Speaker 1: do you have a glass of one?
- 46:29Speaker 3: Oh?
- 46:29Speaker 5: I would say maybe once a month?
- 46:32Speaker 1: Really? Yeah, Okay, that I'm the wino. It's officially me
- 46:39Speaker 1: because I probably have a glass at least one glass
- 46:42Speaker 1: every day.
- 46:43Speaker 5: That's my husband, a little glass of red wine every day.
- 46:45Speaker 3: Yeah. Well, Italians believe that will extend your life. My
- 46:48Speaker 3: grandfather fi that will live to ninety nine.
- 46:51Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm German Irish, so it doesn't apply to me
- 46:53Speaker 1: at all. I just drink it because I like it.
- 46:55Speaker 1: I love pino noir. And you know a lot of
- 46:58Speaker 1: people out there, leave me a talk back if you
- 47:00Speaker 1: were you're the same type of person. I started drinking
- 47:04Speaker 1: pino noir, and so did Tom Cuddy's wife, by the way,
- 47:07Speaker 1: our program director's wife, because of the movie Sideways.
- 47:10Speaker 5: Ah, great movie.
- 47:11Speaker 1: Have you remember that soliloquy where they talk about comparing
- 47:15Speaker 1: love to pino noir and how good and delicate pino
- 47:18Speaker 1: noir is. I tried it afterwards and I was hooked.
- 47:21Speaker 1: But now, apparently because of movies like Sideways, because wine
- 47:25Speaker 1: became so popular, the whole market has been oversaturated. For
- 47:29Speaker 1: a while. There everybody was opening a winery, remember that, everybody,
- 47:33Speaker 1: every celebrity, every actor, you know, every director was opening
- 47:39Speaker 1: a winery. Now there's they can't make money even with
- 47:43Speaker 1: the demand for one. The demand for wine's going down
- 47:45Speaker 1: a little bit. You know why it's going down. Golp
- 47:47Speaker 1: one drugs.
- 47:48Speaker 18: Twelve percent of the market's going away because it so
- 47:52Speaker 18: the weight loss drugs. Yeah, what's the effect if you
- 47:55Speaker 18: have a glass of wine? One glass of wine you
- 47:58Speaker 18: can do. If you have a little bit more than that,
- 48:00Speaker 18: you'll start to get a pain in your belly.
- 48:02Speaker 3: Ah.
- 48:02Speaker 1: That's why. By the way, this is the thing's a
- 48:04Speaker 1: miracle drug. It's fighting alcoholism. So anyway, of some of
- 48:09Speaker 1: the wineries and some of the people that produce the grapes,
- 48:15Speaker 1: they have decided, these vineyards have decided they're going to
- 48:18Speaker 1: make a goavey. Now the goavey is used in tequila
- 48:23Speaker 1: skall and so they now have done a big switch
- 48:28Speaker 1: because of the consumption of wine is not down, but
- 48:34Speaker 1: it's just been oversaturated.
- 48:35Speaker 3: Larry, I want you to come back to your use
- 48:38Speaker 3: when I could drink wine, and you Natalie too. You
- 48:41Speaker 3: probably shample these products from time to time. Very affordable,
- 48:45Speaker 3: won't hurt your wallet or your pocketbook. Wild Irish rows, spoons,
- 48:49Speaker 3: Farm Apple Wine, Ripple, Thunderbird, come on, come back with
- 48:53Speaker 3: the twist stop on top. That's how you knew it
- 48:55Speaker 3: was a real cheap wine.
- 48:56Speaker 1: And you realize I never drank any of the wines
- 48:58Speaker 1: you just mentioned ever ever drank any of them. What
- 49:02Speaker 1: could you know why I was a smart kid.
- 49:05Speaker 3: Ninety nine cents, Ernest and Julie og chemical wine.
- 49:09Speaker 1: You just told me the reason why you shouldn't be
- 49:11Speaker 1: drinking that wine. There you go, all that. Now, let's
- 49:14Speaker 1: get let's get to the talkbacks. I will as soon
- 49:19Speaker 1: as we get to the talk back page. There we go.
- 49:21Speaker 1: You got Willie Nelson stay in his lane.
- 49:24Speaker 8: You know what else?
- 49:25Speaker 19: Uses a lot of electricity and water weed bars that
- 49:28Speaker 19: he supports one hundred and ten percent of couse.
- 49:30Speaker 12: They pollute everything with the chemicals they put into the fertilizer.
- 49:34Speaker 1: Go away, Willy.
- 49:35Speaker 3: Oh wait an So he's talking about I think hydroponic
- 49:38Speaker 3: shack because you know Willie, who's come out and has
- 49:42Speaker 3: joined me and you in saying slow down. These data
- 49:46Speaker 3: filing centers out there, these he I doubt they're filing
- 49:49Speaker 3: sentence because he ruins neighborhoods. Willie Nelson, you know he's
- 49:52Speaker 3: a pothead. He loves pot.
- 49:54Speaker 20: Uh.
- 49:54Speaker 3: So if you go it hydroponically, what he's talking about is,
- 49:58Speaker 3: you know, you have chemicals, you have other things, so
- 50:00Speaker 3: you know it poisons the environment.
- 50:02Speaker 20: I get it.
- 50:03Speaker 3: Use a lot of electricity, like you want to, like
- 50:06Speaker 3: my son growing homegrown in the basement. Look at this
- 50:09Speaker 3: electricity bill?
- 50:10Speaker 4: What that?
- 50:10Speaker 3: Why are those heating lamps on twenty four to seven,
- 50:13Speaker 3: three sixty five. I understand what he's say.
- 50:16Speaker 1: Wake up, guys.
- 50:18Speaker 9: They don't need private security to stop people from stealing.
- 50:21Speaker 1: That's gonna happen anyway. The people that are gonna steal
- 50:24Speaker 1: are these subcontractors, and they're gonna steal. Take the two
- 50:29Speaker 1: of millions of dollars. I guarantee you'll hear it in
- 50:35Speaker 1: a year, two years, whatever, that all this money going
- 50:40Speaker 1: to these subcontractors was being ripped off. It's a guarantee.
- 50:44Speaker 1: You are absolutely correct that everybody should be taking notes
- 50:50Speaker 1: and following and making sure there's some accounting for how
- 50:54Speaker 1: much these places are losing. And it's the interest of
- 50:58Speaker 1: all of us because we're gonna be paying for it.
- 51:00Speaker 1: It's called lost prevention. Yeah, step white collar or blue collar,
- 51:06Speaker 1: and it's gonna be causing more loss.
- 51:08Speaker 10: It's it's hi, good morning, guys, great great show. I
- 51:12Speaker 10: just wanted to thank you guys for providing me with
- 51:14Speaker 10: something that i'll I'll never let go of from the
- 51:18Speaker 10: weather update, and that is my new ringtone. Curtis Leewas
- 51:23Speaker 10: singing that nursery rhyme song.
- 51:29Speaker 3: And Natalie said there was more to it that I
- 51:31Speaker 3: truncated it.
- 51:32Speaker 7: No, No, you just had the extended version. I didn't
- 51:35Speaker 7: know all the other verses, go away, come back and
- 51:39Speaker 7: never day. And then I would just sing that over
- 51:41Speaker 7: and over and over again.
- 51:42Speaker 3: Yeah, that was it. That's right, and that's one.
- 51:45Speaker 1: It was right.
- 51:46Speaker 3: We couldn't go out to play, we would sing that
- 51:48Speaker 3: nursery rhyme. Real you did, you had stunted growth. I
- 51:52Speaker 3: didn't sing a nursery rhyme when I couldn't go out
- 51:55Speaker 3: to play.
- 51:56Speaker 1: That doesn't make you.
- 51:59Speaker 4: The kid.

- 53:28Speaker 1: grocery stores that Mom Donnie is doing because I think
- 53:31Speaker 1: he's going to agree. Everything is happening exactly while how
- 53:36Speaker 1: we predicted it would happen, and it's all bad. That
- 53:40Speaker 1: is coming up next. And you've heard me say this
- 53:44Speaker 1: a couple of times now, but this is so important.
- 53:46Speaker 1: It is important to realize how fast an everyday situation
- 53:52Speaker 1: like having a snack, eating down and sitting dinner eating
- 53:56Speaker 1: dinner can turn into an emergency. I've reported the news
- 53:59Speaker 1: for a years and years and years decades, and I've
- 54:02Speaker 1: watched this happen over and over again. Everything is going fine,
- 54:07Speaker 1: then it goes bad. Choking is one of those moments,
- 54:10Speaker 1: and it can happen to anyone. It can happen to
- 54:13Speaker 1: a child, it can happen to a parent, a grandparent,
- 54:16Speaker 1: and when it does, there's panic and seconds matter. That's
- 54:20Speaker 1: why I want to tell you about Life Back. Life
- 54:23Speaker 1: BAC is the first and only FDA authorized suction anti
- 54:27Speaker 1: choking device to be used for second line treatment when
- 54:32Speaker 1: recommended choking protocols like hitting somebody in the back trying
- 54:35Speaker 1: to pull something out of their throat the Heimlich have
- 54:38Speaker 1: been followed without success. And here's what's remarkable. Life Back
- 54:44Speaker 1: has helped save over six thousand lives worldwide. Imagine if
- 54:49Speaker 1: it wasn't there, Because that's not just a number, that's
- 54:52Speaker 1: real people. We're talking about real families, real second chances.
- 54:56Speaker 1: Preparedness matters. It can mean that difference between life and death.

- 55:20Speaker 3: We're on, We're on something telepathically affected? Are it was
- 55:26Speaker 3: the dischronificator. Crash knows all about this. Sometimes the discontificator
- 55:31Speaker 3: will alter the signal and it's affected by the inclement weather,
- 55:35Speaker 3: the storms that are coming. You didn't know that, did you, Larry?
- 55:38Speaker 1: No, I didn't. I thought it. I thought it was Crash.
- 55:40Speaker 3: No, a dischroonificator.
- 55:44Speaker 5: Whatever the dischronificator is.
- 55:48Speaker 1: How long you've been in the business years you ever
- 55:52Speaker 1: hear of the disquantificator?
- 55:53Speaker 3: No?
- 55:53Speaker 5: But but you know, Curtis has taught me a lot
- 55:55Speaker 5: in the past few that's right.
- 55:57Speaker 3: Did you grow up eating popular mechanics what they talked
- 56:00Speaker 3: about to dischronificating affecting the Marconi radio signals, not the tests.
- 56:07Speaker 1: All right, let's bring in Rob Astorino, host of The
- 56:09Speaker 1: Rob Astorino Show on w r Saturday is four to
- 56:13Speaker 1: five pm. Also hosts of Saturday Agenda from one to
- 56:17Speaker 1: three on Newsmax, and of course he is the former
- 56:20Speaker 1: Westchester County executive. Rob we were talking a moment ago about.
- 56:25Speaker 4: Wait, wait, wait wait, I just gotta I gotta, I
- 56:28Speaker 4: gotta toggle my noterator might keep me off there too.
- 56:33Speaker 1: Not a lator. It's it's gonna be make up word day.
- 56:37Speaker 3: No, no, there is the nodulator. Come on, I know
- 56:41Speaker 3: you are radio people, Rob those I know, get with it.
- 56:45Speaker 3: This is the business we have chosen.
- 56:50Speaker 1: Just the fact that he backed you up. I know
- 56:52Speaker 1: it's not true. All right, Let's talk about the grocery stores,
- 56:59Speaker 1: because as expected, he's going to go ahead and force
- 57:03Speaker 1: these through, even though it seems like it's going to
- 57:07Speaker 1: cost everybody, except for sometimes the people to jump there,
- 57:11Speaker 1: a whole lot of money. I'm trying to figure out
- 57:14Speaker 1: what the loss is going to be on these places.
- 57:17Speaker 4: Don't try to figure it out, because it's too high.
- 57:20Speaker 4: Kansas City tried this, and all of a sudden they realize, well,
- 57:23Speaker 4: that ain't working out.
- 57:25Speaker 1: That's no good.
- 57:26Speaker 4: It's the same thing with universal health care. Bernie Sanders
- 57:30Speaker 4: Vermont tried it. Okay, they did the studies. Bernie Sanders
- 57:33Speaker 4: Vermont did the studies of universal health care just for
- 57:37Speaker 4: their state, and they quickly decided, even those liberals in
- 57:41Speaker 4: Vermont quickly decided, there's no way we can do this.
- 57:45Speaker 4: There was a study done for universal health care for
- 57:48Speaker 4: the United States. It would be forty two trillion dollars.
- 57:52Speaker 4: Forty two trillion dollars and a system that would be
- 57:55Speaker 4: horrendous and would collapse. So this is just in line
- 57:58Speaker 4: with everything that the far left, the Marxist communists try
- 58:02Speaker 4: to do, which has been done in the past. If
- 58:05Speaker 4: it were never done, you could say, all right, look,
- 58:07Speaker 4: let's give it a shot and see how it works.
- 58:11Speaker 4: It's been done so many times and it gets an
- 58:14Speaker 4: f every time. And yet here he goes, because, well,
- 58:18Speaker 4: what's your tax dollars, My tax dollars.
- 58:21Speaker 1: It means nothing anyway, let's just do it, okay.
- 58:24Speaker 3: Rob Etscherina. We're a little more than three months out
- 58:27Speaker 3: from the gubernatorial race and all the congressional races. But
- 58:31Speaker 3: let's look at Bruce Blakeman versus Kathy Hokel. She looked
- 58:37Speaker 3: and imposed a moratorium on AIDTIFILN centers for a year
- 58:41Speaker 3: in New York State from Buffalo to Brooklyn, and immediately
- 58:46Speaker 3: Blakeman followed the paths of Donald Trump, who was promoting them,
- 58:50Speaker 3: and said, no, no, I'm all for them as a
- 58:54Speaker 3: campaign issue because it does bring these situations to local communities.
- 59:00Speaker 3: Is this a plus for brufs or a minus?
- 59:04Speaker 4: You know, I think there are some areas where, especially
- 59:08Speaker 4: in the some of the rural areas, and it's becoming
- 59:10Speaker 4: an issue for Republicans around the country, even in Texas
- 59:15Speaker 4: where they got plenty of energy and from all sources.
- 59:18Speaker 4: Greg Abbott kind of backtracked a little bit and said,
- 59:22Speaker 4: you know, we better hold on a second, hold on
- 59:25Speaker 4: a second when they were full steam ahead, because it's
- 59:27Speaker 4: created a political issue in areas they never thought so.
- 59:31Speaker 4: I mean, the easiest thing for him to do would
- 59:33Speaker 4: have said, you know what, Look, I'm okay with a
- 59:36Speaker 4: one year moratorium, whether he is or is, let's just
- 59:39Speaker 4: figure out the rules going forward, so we do it right,
- 59:43Speaker 4: But let's not abolish it, because that would put us
- 59:46Speaker 4: behind the eight ball with other states. I mean something
- 59:49Speaker 4: like that you can get away with because the you know,
- 59:51Speaker 4: the campaign is only a couple more months, So if
- 59:55Speaker 4: you want to do that politically in this kind of state,
- 59:57Speaker 4: you can get away with that.
- 59:58Speaker 1: I would think, you know, as much as we slams
- 1:00:01Speaker 1: are a mom Donnie on the show here and a
- 1:00:04Speaker 1: lot of people do across the country, especially in Republican circles,
- 1:00:07Speaker 1: we really actually should thank him because he's the one
- 1:00:11Speaker 1: that brought democratic socialism to the forefront, and that has
- 1:00:15Speaker 1: become it sounds like the top Republican issue. And if
- 1:00:19Speaker 1: you listen to some of the top Democrats are saying,
- 1:00:22Speaker 1: we got to fix this because the polls are showing
- 1:00:25Speaker 1: like for the House races it might actually be a
- 1:00:28Speaker 1: toss up now some even have Republicans picking up a seat.
- 1:00:32Speaker 1: And it has to be about that because every single
- 1:00:37Speaker 1: candidate keeps talking about the threat of socialism or sometimes
- 1:00:41Speaker 1: they say communism.
- 1:00:43Speaker 4: Yeah, and I would say communism, but the you know,
- 1:00:47Speaker 4: it's a really sharp divide. The younger voters don't care.
- 1:00:50Speaker 2: They love it.
- 1:00:50Speaker 4: Actually, Democrats are now drifting towards at least a vision
- 1:00:56Speaker 4: of socialism. They may not know how far it goes,
- 1:01:00Speaker 4: what it leads to but the idea of socialism they like,
- 1:01:04Speaker 4: they kind of like, actually, but it's you know, it's
- 1:01:07Speaker 4: a lot of these other people and honestly too, a
- 1:01:10Speaker 4: lot of these illegal aliens. Well, actually, let's I'm not
- 1:01:13Speaker 4: talking about the voters that are the illegal aliens in
- 1:01:15Speaker 4: New Jersey. The immigrants who actually came legally and have
- 1:01:20Speaker 4: you know, been voting. Now, there's an interesting thing within
- 1:01:24Speaker 4: that category because a lot of them who fled these
- 1:01:27Speaker 4: countries now they're like, whoa wait a minute, Okay, I
- 1:01:30Speaker 4: don't really like where Republicans are going, but and the
- 1:01:33Speaker 4: economy is not that great, but this socialism, communism stuff
- 1:01:37Speaker 4: that I live through, there's no way in hell I
- 1:01:39Speaker 4: want to go through that again, you know. And I
- 1:01:41Speaker 4: think that's that's another sleeper issue in this and that's
- 1:01:44Speaker 4: another reason why Republicans are bringing it up. And it's
- 1:01:49Speaker 4: it was funny yesterday I was doing a kind of
- 1:01:51Speaker 4: a big project for Newsmax. So it was kind of
- 1:01:53Speaker 4: going through the entire country of all the races, how
- 1:01:57Speaker 4: Senate governor races, and when you look at the house races,
- 1:02:01Speaker 4: I mean, there aren't a lot that are even that
- 1:02:04Speaker 4: are in play.
- 1:02:05Speaker 1: There just are not.
- 1:02:07Speaker 4: And so these issues that are going to divide an
- 1:02:11Speaker 4: electorate and actually get some to come are our way,
- 1:02:15Speaker 4: the Republicans way, when in this year they may not.
- 1:02:19Speaker 4: The communism, socialism, crazy left issue is a powerful issue
- 1:02:24Speaker 4: right now.
- 1:02:25Speaker 1: Yeah, you're exactly right, and it's fascinating that it may
- 1:02:27Speaker 1: decide the election if the Democrats don't do something, because
- 1:02:30Speaker 1: the poll show independents hated and Republicans hate it. It's
- 1:02:34Speaker 1: just the Democrats that seem to love it.
- 1:02:36Speaker 4: Tuesday night in Michigan, you know that that primary for
- 1:02:40Speaker 4: Senate is going to be a huge, huge decider of
- 1:02:45Speaker 4: how the how these campaigns are on the country are
- 1:02:47Speaker 4: going to go. If el Sayid wins far left, crazy
- 1:02:50Speaker 4: guy and he's winning in the polls right now. If
- 1:02:53Speaker 4: he beats a sitting congresswoman for that Senate seat, that's
- 1:02:56Speaker 4: a seat the Republicans probably will pick up and that'll
- 1:02:59Speaker 4: save the Senate. It absolutely going to become another issue race.
- 1:03:02Speaker 1: Absolutely. Rob Astorino, host of The Rob Astorino Show on
- 1:03:05Speaker 1: WOR Saturdays four to five. Thanks so much, Rob, Thanks guys.

- 1:04:48Speaker 1: What a wonderful funeral, What a wonderful memorial it was,
- 1:04:54Speaker 1: and what a testament to how much Lindsey Graham was loved.
- 1:04:59Speaker 1: Democrat and Republicans all sharing stories of Lindsey Graham having
- 1:05:05Speaker 1: a conversation with them meeting in caucus in the back,
- 1:05:10Speaker 1: how he could make everyone laugh, and how he reached
- 1:05:14Speaker 1: across the aisle like we don't have anymore. He was
- 1:05:18Speaker 1: the old school. He was able to work with the
- 1:05:21Speaker 1: other side. He didn't always villainize the other side. He
- 1:05:25Speaker 1: never crossed the line, and they all remembered him for that.
- 1:05:29Speaker 1: People came from all over the world, all over the world,
- 1:05:33Speaker 1: world leaders that he met with many times over the
- 1:05:36Speaker 1: last thirty years. And Donald Trump gave a wonderful, wonderful
- 1:05:41Speaker 1: eulogy for more than thirty years.
- 1:05:44Speaker 22: Nothing of consequence happened in his capital without Lindsey Graham
- 1:05:49Speaker 22: knowing about it. Nothing of significance happened anywhere in the
- 1:05:53Speaker 22: world without Lindsey Graham having a view on it, And
- 1:05:58Speaker 22: no bill became law and most exceptional Republican human history
- 1:06:02Speaker 22: without Lindsey Graham having essay in it.
- 1:06:07Speaker 1: Now, remember he died right after a flight back from Ukraine,
- 1:06:12Speaker 1: and there he was talking about a peace deal, and
- 1:06:14Speaker 1: he was talking about giving the missiles to and the
- 1:06:18Speaker 1: ability to build missiles to the Ukrainians. He also was
- 1:06:22Speaker 1: talking about sanctions for the Russians. And so when he
- 1:06:26Speaker 1: got back, he called President Trump from there to say, hey,
- 1:06:29Speaker 1: this is the deal. Would you be okay with it?
- 1:06:31Speaker 1: He said yes, And he was supposed to have a
- 1:06:33Speaker 1: meeting later that day after he got back, but he
- 1:06:38Speaker 1: then tragically died before he could have that meeting. But
- 1:06:42Speaker 1: in honor of him, the Senate, you know, it's just
- 1:06:46Speaker 1: one step on many, but it looks like it's so
- 1:06:48Speaker 1: bipartisan is going to pass passed a sanctions deal against Russia.
- 1:06:54Speaker 23: It's an overwhelming show of support from senators representing East
- 1:07:01Speaker 23: and West and North and South across this great country
- 1:07:05Speaker 23: Democrat and Republican.
- 1:07:08Speaker 1: That is Senator Wicker saying that in Zelensky was in
- 1:07:11Speaker 1: town and he talked about the sanctions and saying that
- 1:07:15Speaker 1: it may help end this war.
- 1:07:18Speaker 13: It's very important sunction's pressure on Russia. It is very
- 1:07:21Speaker 13: important and really gives it's not all amount of money
- 1:07:26Speaker 13: how Russia how to soak to finance this war, but
- 1:07:30Speaker 13: it's also a big signal to Europe, big signal to Ukraine,
- 1:07:35Speaker 13: big support of all our people.
- 1:07:37Speaker 1: Right, there's new support for Zelensky, especially because as we know,
- 1:07:40Speaker 1: Donald Trump loves winners that he seems to be winning
- 1:07:43Speaker 1: this war.
- 1:07:43Speaker 3: I concur with you on everything except Trump got a
- 1:07:46Speaker 3: little carried away and eulogizing Lynchy Graham when he looked
- 1:07:51Speaker 3: at the audience and he said, you know, just two
- 1:07:54Speaker 3: weeks ago he came to me and said we need
- 1:07:58Speaker 3: peace with Iran. And then he could see there was
- 1:08:01Speaker 3: some doubting Thomas's because, let's face it, Lindsey Graham was
- 1:08:03Speaker 3: a warhawk on everything. No, no, really really he was.
- 1:08:08Speaker 3: But other than that, you're right with Zelenski. It's interesting.
- 1:08:12Speaker 3: Remember I had talked about the other day how he
- 1:08:14Speaker 3: sent a drone one of the many drones they make
- 1:08:17Speaker 3: now long distance drone, and it hit in Iranian cargo
- 1:08:22Speaker 3: container ship in the Caspian Sea that was bringing supplies
- 1:08:28Speaker 3: to Russia. And Putin he wouldn't acknowledge it at first,
- 1:08:33Speaker 3: and yesterday he called up the Iranian ambassador and he said, no,
- 1:08:37Speaker 3: you're right, it was a mistake. This doesn't mean that
- 1:08:40Speaker 3: we're going to war against Iran. Tu please please, It
- 1:08:43Speaker 3: was a mistake. So that was important because we didn't
- 1:08:47Speaker 3: need to have a new front. As you know, what
- 1:08:50Speaker 3: was happening is a combined effort of Saudi Arabia and
- 1:08:54Speaker 3: the United States started bombing the Shia militias in Iraq
- 1:09:00Speaker 3: who were responsible for sending drones to attacks Saudi Arabia
- 1:09:04Speaker 3: and the United States. Indicates that there was a sneak attack. Now,
- 1:09:08Speaker 3: I don't know how you can have a sneak attack
- 1:09:10Speaker 3: during war, but they claimed that Jurann was firing ballistic
- 1:09:15Speaker 3: missiles at US military sites throughout the Gulf region and
- 1:09:19Speaker 3: they were able to repel them, knock them out of
- 1:09:21Speaker 3: the sky. But we're at war. There's no such thing
- 1:09:25Speaker 3: as a sneak attack. Now we have to see what
- 1:09:27Speaker 3: will the president do. He seems like he wants peace.
- 1:09:32Speaker 3: I think he recognizes he can't keep firing missiles back
- 1:09:36Speaker 3: and forth, back and forth because it hurts him. Prices
- 1:09:39Speaker 3: of gas go up, prices and groceries go up, and
- 1:09:42Speaker 3: he could well impact the Republicans in the midterm election
- 1:09:45Speaker 3: which is coming up. A roppie though, let.
- 1:09:48Speaker 1: Me just say this, and this surprises me too, and
- 1:09:51Speaker 1: it did surprise people. You were right when he said
- 1:09:53Speaker 1: it that were in the crowd, and he had to respond.
- 1:09:56Speaker 1: But apparently he wrote. Lindsey Graham two weeks ago wrote
- 1:10:01Speaker 1: on social media and says he told the president, quote,
- 1:10:05Speaker 1: wind down the war and wind up efforts for an
- 1:10:08Speaker 1: historic peace deal. So it sounds like that was true. Ah,
- 1:10:12Speaker 1: that's not what he was telling bbe. Well, that's what

- 1:15:25Speaker 1: Well, Doctor Anthony Fauci is walking into the lions Den today.
- 1:15:30Speaker 1: He's going to testify starting at eight point thirty before
- 1:15:33Speaker 1: the sended Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs Committee. And guess
- 1:15:38Speaker 1: who is the chair of that committee. His archvillain, Senator
- 1:15:43Speaker 1: Rand Paul, who has uncovered the Fauci diary and has
- 1:15:48Speaker 1: had dramatic, historic and well publicized back and forths where
- 1:15:55Speaker 1: he uncovered information about Fauci lying time and time again.
- 1:16:02Speaker 1: So this is going to be fascinating today. And our
- 1:16:06Speaker 1: FKA Junior, by the way, has been feeding information to
- 1:16:11Speaker 1: the committee. He was on TV on several shows last
- 1:16:14Speaker 1: night and talked about he went through all the lines
- 1:16:18Speaker 1: of doctor Fauci. But here's one that I had not
- 1:16:21Speaker 1: heard before.
- 1:16:23Speaker 26: He got vaccinated a very very public press conference in
- 1:16:29Speaker 26: January of twenty twenty, and then five months later he
- 1:16:34Speaker 26: had him This the first time that we knew this
- 1:16:36Speaker 26: from the diary. He had a pulmonary infarction, which is
- 1:16:40Speaker 26: one of the average events and NIA, CDC and FDAs
- 1:16:45Speaker 26: that are expected from the vaccine.
- 1:16:48Speaker 1: He never told anybody, never told anybody that he had
- 1:16:52Speaker 1: the vaccine and that had infraction afterwards. That is one
- 1:16:58Speaker 1: of the setbacks after you take a vaccine. He lied
- 1:17:02Speaker 1: and lied and lied again.
- 1:17:04Speaker 3: What's interesting you brought up the Secretary of Health and
- 1:17:07Speaker 3: Human Services, our FK Junior, who as you mentioned, was
- 1:17:12Speaker 3: talking about all of his diary entries. Now, how did
- 1:17:16Speaker 3: our FK Junior get it? A diligent employee apparently said Robert,
- 1:17:23Speaker 3: could you believe that Fauci left all of his diary
- 1:17:27Speaker 3: notes on our government servers? He said, well, gather them up.
- 1:17:31Speaker 3: So from twenty nineteen to twenty twenty two, meticulously, fastidiously, doctor,
- 1:17:38Speaker 3: the evil doctor Fauci would enter a diary note every day,
- 1:17:44Speaker 3: And let me just give you one of many. You
- 1:17:46Speaker 3: could go out and read them yourselves. It's one thy
- 1:17:48Speaker 3: one hundred pages. But this was May twenty first of
- 1:17:52Speaker 3: twenty twenty. Right right in the middle, we're getting clobbered
- 1:17:56Speaker 3: by this Corona COVID nineteen virus. He begins his notation
- 1:18:02Speaker 3: by acknowledging the global death toll from the pandemic at
- 1:18:06Speaker 3: that moment two hundred and thirty four one hundred. So
- 1:18:09Speaker 3: that's like, oh my god, you must have been burning
- 1:18:12Speaker 3: the midnight oil, you know, with all the no He
- 1:18:16Speaker 3: then enters big front page article about me appeared in
- 1:18:19Speaker 3: the Washington Post. It was very flattering the situation with
- 1:18:23Speaker 3: my national and international famous explosive. I am the guest
- 1:18:29Speaker 3: at every top shelf party in Washington, DC. The invitations
- 1:18:35Speaker 3: are flooding in so at night. Instead of meeting with
- 1:18:38Speaker 3: the experts and his fellow doctors trying to figure this out,
- 1:18:42Speaker 3: he was the party boy. He was Spudge McKenzie, and.
- 1:18:46Speaker 1: He was loving and he's such a narcissist. He was
- 1:18:48Speaker 1: every single celebrity that showed him any love. He wrote
- 1:18:52Speaker 1: about it and glowed about himself. The whole thing was sickening.
- 1:18:57Speaker 1: But let me zero in on why they're having this
- 1:19:00Speaker 1: hearing today and specifically what was written in the diary
- 1:19:04Speaker 1: that I'm sure is going to start off the questioning
- 1:19:06Speaker 1: with Rand Paul. It was a diary entry from January sixth,
- 1:19:10Speaker 1: twenty twenty, in which Fauci acknowledged the data showing infectious
- 1:19:15Speaker 1: spread happened weeks weeks before it was ever showed up
- 1:19:21Speaker 1: on the Wuhan market wet market. Now, he said all along,
- 1:19:26Speaker 1: it started in the Wuhan wet market, over and over
- 1:19:30Speaker 1: and over again. That's what that's because they didn't want
- 1:19:33Speaker 1: anybody to look at the Wuhan lab that he was
- 1:19:36Speaker 1: funding for gain and function research. He wanted to say
- 1:19:40Speaker 1: it started just natural out of the wet market. And
- 1:19:44Speaker 1: yet he wrote about the fact that no, no, no,
- 1:19:47Speaker 1: this started long before it ever showed up in the
- 1:19:50Speaker 1: wet market. That would mean he lied under oath, and
- 1:19:54Speaker 1: that's what they're going after.
- 1:19:55Speaker 4: Now.
- 1:19:56Speaker 1: They can't charge him. He's been pardoned, but I think
- 1:19:59Speaker 1: Rand Paul is just looking for blood to say this
- 1:20:02Speaker 1: is guy is a liar. And Ron Johnson is on
- 1:20:05Speaker 1: the committee too, and he says, we have so much
- 1:20:08Speaker 1: on him. This may be what's going to be at
- 1:20:10Speaker 1: the end of that committee play what he has to say.
- 1:20:14Speaker 27: He was probably one of the most famous people at
- 1:20:17Speaker 27: that time. I think you'll go down in history is
- 1:20:19Speaker 27: one of the most infamous villains of history.
- 1:20:22Speaker 1: That's what they're looking for.
- 1:20:24Speaker 3: My suggestion, although they won't adhere to this, there is
- 1:20:27Speaker 3: one expert, one expirate Aloney's dedicated his life to pursuing
- 1:20:32Speaker 3: the evil doctor FRAUTCHI that's Rand Paul. You know, each
- 1:20:34Speaker 3: of the Republicans on the committee, including Ron Johnson, could
- 1:20:38Speaker 3: give up their five minutes. They only get five minutes
- 1:20:40Speaker 3: to question him and say, respectfully, I give my time
- 1:20:44Speaker 3: to the chairman Rand Paul, and let him use all
- 1:20:46Speaker 3: the Republican time because he needs time to make his case.
- 1:20:49Speaker 3: It's like pacing pacing patient. I don't think they'll do it.
- 1:20:53Speaker 3: We know the Democrats are going to put up a defense.
- 1:20:55Speaker 3: They're going to try to put up a defense. But
- 1:20:58Speaker 3: that's really who should be crush examining him. Nobody knows
- 1:21:02Speaker 3: the case against Fouch. You better than Ran Paul. Well,
- 1:21:04Speaker 3: he's lived the whole situation.
- 1:21:07Speaker 1: Yeah, and he is the chair, so he's going to
- 1:21:08Speaker 1: be able to give himself extra time. So trust me,
- 1:21:11Speaker 1: he's going to have all the time he wants. Ron
- 1:21:13Speaker 1: Johnson though, of all the people, I wouldn't minimize him.
- 1:21:17Speaker 1: He's been working hand in hand with Ran Paul on this,
- 1:21:21Speaker 1: so he knows as much. Look it, you're right, Rand
- 1:21:24Speaker 1: Paul's been out in front. Ran Paul has been dogged.
- 1:21:27Speaker 1: Ran Paul is a great prosecutor and a great questioner,
- 1:21:31Speaker 1: so he's going to be tremendous. But you know, Ron
- 1:21:33Speaker 1: Johnson also deserves his moment in the spot.
- 1:21:36Speaker 3: No, No, I like Ron john The other thing is
- 1:21:38Speaker 3: we had discussed it yesterday when the talkback caller said,
- 1:21:41Speaker 3: do we think to doctor Frauci will lawyer up and
- 1:21:44Speaker 3: take the fifth? We've seen that before before committee hearings.
- 1:21:47Speaker 3: Famous in the Godfather, I take the Fifth Amendment, my
- 1:21:51Speaker 3: right not to incriminate myself.
- 1:21:53Speaker 1: You felt that he can't, He's not allowed to, Okay,
- 1:21:57Speaker 1: because he can incriminate himself.
- 1:21:58Speaker 3: He can't be charged good because there are others out
- 1:22:01Speaker 3: there who are claiming he could. And I didn't get
- 1:22:03Speaker 3: into arguments. I'm not the constitutional legal scholar here. I'm
- 1:22:07Speaker 3: going to entrusting this to you, Larry. If you turn
- 1:22:10Speaker 3: out to be wrong, I'm going to say I was
- 1:22:12Speaker 3: going on the guidance of my very dear partner. We've cohabitated,
- 1:22:17Speaker 3: we've come together, and I was going based on his
- 1:22:20Speaker 3: inful I think the bigger problem for doctor Fauci, even
- 1:22:24Speaker 3: though this is real dire for him, and Ran Paul's
- 1:22:28Speaker 3: going to move in on him.
- 1:22:29Speaker 1: Yep.
- 1:22:30Speaker 3: If anybody else brings up what else came out of
- 1:22:32Speaker 3: the diaries, This is not going to be good for
- 1:22:35Speaker 3: Barack Obama, right Barack Obama, I would say, the top
- 1:22:39Speaker 3: Democrat in America poll after pole indicates Barack Obama beloved
- 1:22:44Speaker 3: by many not after this. Remember how he always bring
- 1:22:48Speaker 3: up whenever we talk about the evil doctor Fauci, how
- 1:22:51Speaker 3: he had subcontracted the torture of beagles to the Tunisians
- 1:22:57Speaker 3: who were experimenting at his behalfests these oversea tests for
- 1:23:02Speaker 3: infectious diseases and allergies sand fleas, and they took the
- 1:23:07Speaker 3: beagles and there was video of it, and they put
- 1:23:09Speaker 3: collars on them, and then they put the sand fleas
- 1:23:12Speaker 3: in them, and they cut their vocal cords because the
- 1:23:15Speaker 3: sand fleees was screaming as these not to SAand flea.
- 1:23:19Speaker 3: The beagles were screaming. The sand flees were eating the
- 1:23:21Speaker 3: flesh off their skull, and people were at the rage. Well,
- 1:23:24Speaker 3: in his diary entries when he was coming under heat
- 1:23:27Speaker 3: from Democrats and Republicans for this, Barack Obama offered his
- 1:23:31Speaker 3: personal support during Beagle Gate, Obama called me on the
- 1:23:36Speaker 3: phone to provide encouragement. Obama told me public abuse comes
- 1:23:41Speaker 3: with public service. He lifted my spirits in my darkest
- 1:23:46Speaker 3: moment because you know how animal welfare people are. They
- 1:23:50Speaker 3: were relentless and they should be.
- 1:23:52Speaker 1: Uh, this is a big story.
- 1:23:53Speaker 3: It is a big Obama's gonna have a lot of
- 1:23:56Speaker 3: explaining to do about that one.
- 1:23:58Speaker 1: Yeah, Yeah, that's gonna have some legs to day. However,
- 1:24:01Speaker 1: it's all going to be about that testimony and whether
- 1:24:03Speaker 1: Anthony Fauci lived lied. Let's get back to what you
- 1:24:07Speaker 1: just said a second ago, that some people told you
- 1:24:09Speaker 1: that you can take the Fifth. I just went to
- 1:24:12Speaker 1: AI to check on this. No, a person cannot take
- 1:24:14Speaker 1: the fifth to avoid self incrimination regarding a crime for
- 1:24:18Speaker 1: which they have received and accepted a valid pardon. Now
- 1:24:23Speaker 1: this this was far reaching, this pardon, so it it
- 1:24:27Speaker 1: goes to every crime he may have committed, So he's
- 1:24:30Speaker 1: not going to be able to it, says. The main
- 1:24:32Speaker 1: point of the Fifth Amendment right is to keep you
- 1:24:35Speaker 1: from being forced to confess to a crime. If you
- 1:24:39Speaker 1: can't be charged with that crime, it doesn't apply.
- 1:24:43Speaker 3: I stand with you, Larry. Unless it turns out not
- 1:24:46Speaker 3: to be true, I will drop you like a bad habit.
- 1:24:49Speaker 3: Well I stand No, I stand with you.
- 1:24:54Speaker 1: You can tell how much I trust myself. I checked AIE.
- 1:24:57Speaker 1: I wanted to make sure I was correct.
- 1:24:59Speaker 3: Not always. Who do you stand with? Come on, producer, extraordinary.
- 1:25:04Speaker 5: You can't pick one your kids over the other.
- 1:25:06Speaker 20: You know that.
- 1:25:06Speaker 3: No, I'm standing with Larry. I'm gonna take the hit
- 1:25:09Speaker 3: for him.
- 1:25:11Speaker 1: There's no hits to take. You can't take he will.
- 1:25:14Speaker 3: But one thing we know this the diary thing came
- 1:25:17Speaker 3: as a complete shock to doctor Fauci. He had no
- 1:25:21Speaker 3: idea that RK Jr. Had it from the government service
- 1:25:25Speaker 3: and gave it right to Rand Paul. But you can
- 1:25:27Speaker 3: bet he's going to come lawyered up mostly in the
- 1:25:29Speaker 3: past when he's in these congressional hearings. Here's a lawyer two.
- 1:25:33Speaker 3: I have a feeling he's going to come in with
- 1:25:35Speaker 3: the dream team like Oh Jay had, remember the dream team,
- 1:25:37Speaker 3: maybe eleven lawyers or more.
- 1:25:39Speaker 1: That'll be fascinating if he comes in because that chose
- 1:25:42Speaker 1: to me. Well, he's guilty as hell if he comes
- 1:25:44Speaker 1: in with that many lawyers, just like Ojay, he's guilty
- 1:25:48Speaker 1: as hell. When we come back, I don't know if
- 1:25:50Speaker 1: you've noticed it, but the famous red shopping bag billboard
- 1:25:55Speaker 1: at Macy's it's gone. We'll tell you why when we
- 1:26:00Speaker 1: come back. Plus a chance to see deep purple in Kansas. Next.
- 1:26:04Speaker 3: Notice how I've asked Spider Man upon his return to
- 1:26:07Speaker 3: join me in going out and catching people who steal
- 1:26:11Speaker 3: out of the blue mail boxes. But there are people
- 1:26:17Speaker 3: more numbers all over the world who steal in a
- 1:26:20Speaker 3: different way and guess what it's legal. How they get
- 1:26:23Speaker 3: your information? So you may be getting spam, text messages,
- 1:26:27Speaker 3: deceptive emails. We know that's not good, but scammers only
- 1:26:30Speaker 3: text and email you when they have your info. So
- 1:26:34Speaker 3: how do they get it? Data brokers They sell it

- 1:27:40Speaker 1: that you know, the one that's like a red shopping bag,
- 1:27:43Speaker 1: white tissue paper poking out above the handles. It's gone.
- 1:27:48Speaker 1: It's down, it's not there anymore. You know what's still there,
- 1:27:52Speaker 1: the white tissue paper. The red bag is gone, just
- 1:27:55Speaker 1: this white. It looks like a cloud hanging up there.
- 1:27:58Speaker 1: I guess it was on a different scaffl or something.
- 1:28:00Speaker 1: I don't know.
- 1:28:01Speaker 19: You.
- 1:28:01Speaker 5: I always save the tissue paper from a gift bag.
- 1:28:03Speaker 1: Se makes sense, It does make sense.
- 1:28:06Speaker 3: Not what I used the tissue paper for in case
- 1:28:10Speaker 3: we run out old school, old school.
- 1:28:12Speaker 1: Oh man. But it was been at Harold Square for
- 1:28:18Speaker 1: over thirty years now. The bag itself has been there
- 1:28:21Speaker 1: for thirty years. A Macy's ad has been there for
- 1:28:23Speaker 1: sixty years or longer. I mean, there's pictures from the
- 1:28:26Speaker 1: nineteen fifties where they had an ad there. Here's the thing.
- 1:28:29Speaker 1: They have most of Harold's Square, they don't have that corner,
- 1:28:32Speaker 1: and specifically a guy came in and bought that corner,
- 1:28:36Speaker 1: so they couldn't have the whole thing, and so now
- 1:28:40Speaker 1: there is a fight over the sign because the people
- 1:28:44Speaker 1: that own that building on the corner have said, you
- 1:28:48Speaker 1: can't put this sign up anymore unless you pay.
- 1:28:51Speaker 7: Us well shakedown shakeout, saying that they had that sign
- 1:28:55Speaker 7: up there for sixty years and wasn't paying anybody for it.
- 1:28:59Speaker 1: No, no, I didn't. They had a sign up. The
- 1:29:01Speaker 1: bag has been up for thirty there's been some time
- 1:29:04Speaker 1: a macy sign up.
- 1:29:05Speaker 3: There, Natalie. That is sixty the largest apartment store in America.
- 1:29:09Speaker 3: You better believe they've been paying a lot of rent.
- 1:29:11Speaker 3: The reason they've stayed afloat financially, brick and mortar facilities
- 1:29:17Speaker 3: are not getting the same business they used to. They
- 1:29:20Speaker 3: own most of the real estate where they have Macy's
- 1:29:23Speaker 3: all over the country, so the real estate is worth more.
- 1:29:26Speaker 3: This spot, which is the epicenter of the world. You know,
- 1:29:29Speaker 3: herold is quick. They don't own the property there.
- 1:29:32Speaker 5: Who knew?
- 1:29:33Speaker 19: So.
- 1:29:33Speaker 1: Dan Biederman, president of the thirty fourth Street Partnership, is
- 1:29:38Speaker 1: trying to mitigate everything, try to negotiate, trying to be
- 1:29:42Speaker 1: an in between between the two parties, and he explained
- 1:29:44Speaker 1: what happened.
- 1:29:45Speaker 12: One firmones a building and the other run wants to
- 1:29:48Speaker 12: keep an advertising sign up on it. They have to
- 1:29:51Speaker 12: make an agreement, and evidently that didn't happen.
- 1:29:53Speaker 1: We don't know the.
- 1:29:54Speaker 12: Details of either side, and we love both sides, so
- 1:29:56Speaker 12: we're hoping something good comes.
- 1:29:58Speaker 19: Out of this.
- 1:29:59Speaker 1: So if you're wondering what's happen, Macy's has put out
- 1:30:02Speaker 1: a statement for generations the iconic sign that Macy's Herald
- 1:30:06Speaker 1: Square has been a recognizable part of the thirty fourth
- 1:30:09Speaker 1: Street experience and a symbol of our deep roots in
- 1:30:12Speaker 1: New York City. As the neighborhood continues to evolve, The
- 1:30:16Speaker 1: current sign Well Beloved is outdated and is being removed
- 1:30:21Speaker 1: as part of a broader update by the billboard owner
- 1:30:25Speaker 1: to modernize the space. So they're ignoring the fact that
- 1:30:28Speaker 1: there's another owner at all.
- 1:30:29Speaker 3: First of all, the space now is ugly because you
- 1:30:32Speaker 3: see the old facade that has not been modernized, or
- 1:30:35Speaker 3: it looks like a tenement from the South monks the facad.
- 1:30:38Speaker 19: That he is.
- 1:30:39Speaker 1: Yes, nobody ever saw the building behind it. It's horrible,
- 1:30:41Speaker 1: But I will.
- 1:30:42Speaker 3: Tell you this miracle on thirty fourth Street, thirty four
- 1:30:45Speaker 3: million eyeballs every Thanksgiving Day parade. You know, Al roca
- 1:30:49Speaker 3: a NBC. You gotta be kidding. We stand with Macy's.
- 1:30:53Speaker 3: Who the hell are they who owns that that section
- 1:30:56Speaker 3: of property? It doesn't say the CRNCH who soul Christmas? Yeah,
- 1:31:03Speaker 3: let's get some talkbacks. Everybody wants to talk about doctor Fauci.
- 1:31:07Speaker 3: We can't put doctor Fauci in jail.
- 1:31:09Speaker 26: Why not a class action civil suit from all the
- 1:31:12Speaker 26: people who were affected, such as the children's education, lost
- 1:31:16Speaker 26: loved ones, and businesses.
- 1:31:18Speaker 1: That were bankrupt. That's a great idea. I'll look into
- 1:31:22Speaker 1: the feasibility of that and get back to you. But
- 1:31:24Speaker 1: I don't think a pardon excuses civil lawsuits. So that
- 1:31:29Speaker 1: that sounds like tremendous.
- 1:31:30Speaker 3: Has made millions on patents. He gets the money even
- 1:31:34Speaker 3: though the government developed the patent. He got the money.
- 1:31:37Speaker 1: There should be an investigation into him and how he
- 1:31:40Speaker 1: doled out the money at the NIH and he doled
- 1:31:43Speaker 1: out billions, hundreds of billions.
- 1:31:45Speaker 28: Question regarding these partners, how is that even acceptable that
- 1:31:51Speaker 28: you pardon somebody even they've been charged. Isn't the whole
- 1:31:55Speaker 28: point of pardon is to outweigh the good that someone did,
- 1:31:59Speaker 28: and perhaps something wrong that data and therefore get partner. Nope,
- 1:32:04Speaker 28: if you pardner before a judgment, it defits the whole
- 1:32:07Speaker 28: point of the party.
- 1:32:08Speaker 1: It's called a preemptive presidential pardon, and it was issued
- 1:32:12Speaker 1: by former President Joe Biden. It's a blanket pardon protecting
- 1:32:16Speaker 1: him from any future potential federal crime prosecution related to
- 1:32:22Speaker 1: his time in office and fighting COVID nineteen. So yeah, no,
- 1:32:28Speaker 1: he has a preemptive pardon. He's safe.
- 1:32:30Speaker 3: Let's get our eight thirty news from Dariu.
- 1:32:32Speaker 8: All right, guys, one more day of this wet weather.
- 1:32:35Speaker 8: We can handle it. Just take the umbrella if you
- 1:32:37Speaker 8: hadn't out now. Up to four inches fell in some
- 1:32:39Speaker 8: parts of New Jersey yesterday. Just shy of three thousand
- 1:32:42Speaker 8: jcpiano customers or without service this morning. CONAD says it's
- 1:32:45Speaker 8: working on about two thousand outages across the boroughs. Doctor
- 1:32:49Speaker 8: Anthony Fauci is about to begin testifying before a Senate
- 1:32:52Speaker 8: committee at any moment now. He will answer questions about
- 1:32:55Speaker 8: a diary that Kentucky Republican Senator Ran Paul recently released
- 1:32:59Speaker 8: with says Paul that Paul says kept during the COVID
- 1:33:03Speaker 8: nineteen pandemic Now, opponents have accused Fauci of misleading Congress
- 1:33:07Speaker 8: in order to get funding for risky coronavirus research, downplaying
- 1:33:11Speaker 8: a theory that the virus leaked from alav in China,
- 1:33:13Speaker 8: and implementing restrictive policies during the pandemic. Former President Biden
- 1:33:18Speaker 8: gave Fauci a preempt of pardon. There's another death from
- 1:33:21Speaker 8: legionnaire's disease on the Upper West Side that brings the

- 1:33:28Speaker 8: robots from China as well as animal like quadruped robots.
- 1:33:33Speaker 8: They say the animals could be used to spy on
- 1:33:36Speaker 8: Americans and gain access to US intelligence. Next News nine
- 1:33:40Speaker 8: o'clock bulletins at once. I'm Daria Albinger on seven to
- 1:33:43Speaker 8: ten WR.
- 1:33:44Speaker 1: Thanks Daria. Congratulations to Richard Schmall from West Babylon who
- 1:33:49Speaker 1: just won a pair of tickets to see Deep Purple
- 1:33:51Speaker 1: in Kansas August twelfth at Northwell Jones Beach Theater. Tickets
- 1:33:54Speaker 1: on sale at ticketmaster dot com. You got another chance
- 1:33:57Speaker 1: to win tomorrow at eight twenty one. How about this.
- 1:34:01Speaker 1: A survey shows that more Americans now use weed every
- 1:34:06Speaker 1: day than drink or smoke cigarettes makes sense to me.
- 1:34:10Speaker 1: It explains a whole lot. Also when we come back.
- 1:34:14Speaker 1: Joy is essential and elusive. You can't order it or
- 1:34:17Speaker 1: borrow it. But now there's a new way to start
- 1:34:20Speaker 1: your journey towards a more joyful existence, The Joy one
- 1:34:25Speaker 1: oh one podcast with Hotocopy. Look for it on the
- 1:34:28Speaker 1: free iHeartRadio. App probability to a laboratory origin.
- 1:34:34Speaker 29: One thing in public and.
- 1:34:35Speaker 3: Another in private.
- 1:34:36Speaker 1: You're listening right now to Rand Paul who is making
- 1:34:40Speaker 1: his opening statement of the Senate Homeland Security and Governmental
- 1:34:43Speaker 1: Affairs Committee, making a statement with accusations to doctor Fauci,
- 1:34:49Speaker 1: who is testifying today that he lied under oath. Let's
- 1:34:53Speaker 1: listen in.
- 1:34:53Speaker 29: Inquiry to see if iaid's possible exposure to funding than
- 1:34:57Speaker 29: a rapid public declaration of search, continued private doubt, and
- 1:35:02Speaker 29: then years of resistance disclosure.
- 1:35:06Speaker 3: The question is why.
- 1:35:08Speaker 29: The only logical answer is that your primary concern was
- 1:35:10Speaker 29: avoiding culpability. Your primary concern was hiding the fact that
- 1:35:15Speaker 29: you had approved the funding for this dangerous research. Your
- 1:35:18Speaker 29: support of gain of function research is extensive and long standing.
- 1:35:23Speaker 29: In twenty eleven, your agency funded Ronfutier's laboratory when it
- 1:35:27Speaker 29: mutated the Avian flu until it could spread through the
- 1:35:31Speaker 29: air between mammals. This was the tipping point. This is
- 1:35:36Speaker 29: when others became worried. You funded this.
- 1:35:38Speaker 1: You advocated for this.
- 1:35:41Speaker 29: The federal government's own Biosecurity Board, though recommended withholding the
- 1:35:45Speaker 29: details of these experiments because of the danger of the
- 1:35:48Speaker 29: research posed. People were concerned that publishing it was publishing
- 1:35:52Speaker 29: a roadmap.
- 1:35:53Speaker 3: To creating bioweapons around the world.
- 1:35:56Speaker 29: But you sided with the gain of function scientist Fucia
- 1:36:00Speaker 29: and argued that the benefits of publishing the research far
- 1:36:04Speaker 29: outweighed the risks.
- 1:36:06Speaker 1: You again, that is Rand Paul talking to doctor Fauci.
- 1:36:11Speaker 1: One thing you missed because this started at eight thirty
- 1:36:14Speaker 1: instead of this is what This is a quote from
- 1:36:16Speaker 1: Rand Paul to Anthony Fauci instead of an apology. You
- 1:36:21Speaker 1: have for years avoided responsibility of regarding the lockdowns. You
- 1:36:26Speaker 1: argue that you did not personally issue every lockdown order,
- 1:36:31Speaker 1: close every school, or impose every mandate, but you did so.
- 1:36:37Speaker 1: That is the quote that started this off. We'll keep
- 1:36:41Speaker 1: we'll keep checking in when something happens, but you you
- 1:36:44Speaker 1: just heard a lot. These are going to be full
- 1:36:46Speaker 1: of accusations in this opening statement. We'll keep covering it
- 1:36:49Speaker 1: through the morning.
- 1:36:50Speaker 3: Man. He is intense, man, he's got leisure like in
- 1:36:55Speaker 3: the streets. We'd call it mad dogging iphoronicating. But we'll
- 1:36:59Speaker 3: see how far she responds. Because he's come layered up,
- 1:37:02Speaker 3: he's lawyered up. He's got the miracle team that OJ
- 1:37:06Speaker 3: had almost as many. But anyway, this would be an
- 1:37:10Speaker 3: issue for our FK. Junior, who is director of our
- 1:37:15Speaker 3: National Health Services. A new poll indicates, is Larry you
- 1:37:18Speaker 3: had teased before?
- 1:37:21Speaker 1: Then?
- 1:37:21Speaker 3: More Americans now use weed every day than those who
- 1:37:26Speaker 3: drink or smoke cigarettes. And I'm sure a lot of
- 1:37:30Speaker 3: people out there say, yeah, those gen z is. You know,
- 1:37:33Speaker 3: it's so easy to get Now it's legal. You know,
- 1:37:36Speaker 3: as long as you have identification and you're of the
- 1:37:39Speaker 3: age of consent, you can just walk into any legal
- 1:37:43Speaker 3: wheed parlor. Now we got them all over in New York,
- 1:37:46Speaker 3: all over in New Jersey. So it's so easy. And
- 1:37:48Speaker 3: then you could vape it. It's so many different and
- 1:37:51Speaker 3: the edibles, right, edibles is so easy. Well, guess what
- 1:37:55Speaker 3: it's not the gen zeers when they broke it down
- 1:37:59Speaker 3: eighteen to twenty five five a gen zers, only twelve
- 1:38:02Speaker 3: percent will actually end up doing refer in any capacity.
- 1:38:07Speaker 3: The mass majority of the millennials and yes, the baby
- 1:38:12Speaker 3: boomers and Natalie had actually hinted at this when we
- 1:38:16Speaker 3: discussed Oh yeah, you got to explain that real quick.
- 1:38:20Speaker 3: Remember a week ago you talked about mothers who are
- 1:38:25Speaker 3: nursing their children or at home and they have to
- 1:38:28Speaker 3: be with their children for long periods of time with
- 1:38:30Speaker 3: all the chaos that goes in the house that daddy
- 1:38:33Speaker 3: gets to avoid now taking edibles, yep, gummies.
- 1:38:37Speaker 1: Yeah, that is true. I didn't think of edibles what
- 1:38:40Speaker 1: I thought about this. I thought of just smoking. But
- 1:38:43Speaker 1: you're right when you add edibles, and it's a lot
- 1:38:45Speaker 1: of people.
- 1:38:46Speaker 3: Yes, so the millennials and the baby boomers. It's skyrocketed
- 1:38:52Speaker 3: the thirties, forties and fifties. So let me just give
- 1:38:55Speaker 3: you the stats. Twenty one and a half million Americans
- 1:39:00Speaker 3: twelve plus, so they were even counting kids who are
- 1:39:03Speaker 3: starting to use the edibles or the smokeable marijuana use
- 1:39:08Speaker 3: marijuana daily. That's in twenty twenty five. Nineteen point nine
- 1:39:13Speaker 3: Americans smoke not just the old fashioned cigarettes but also vaping.
- 1:39:18Speaker 3: The tobacco products. Seventeen million Americans drink alcohol every day.
- 1:39:26Speaker 3: So for instance, the last time that there was a survey,
- 1:39:30Speaker 3: tobacco usage is down twenty eight percent. Alcohol usage is
- 1:39:33Speaker 3: down all groups twenty four percent. The reefer and the
- 1:39:37Speaker 3: edibles reefer is up twenty one percent. So you know
- 1:39:42Speaker 3: this is going to continue to grow its use and
- 1:39:46Speaker 3: it doesn't show any sign of abating whatsoever. So now
- 1:39:49Speaker 3: we're going to have the problem of not just people
- 1:39:52Speaker 3: using tobacco products that can cause all kinds of medical issues,
- 1:39:56Speaker 3: especially lung cancer. People who drink we know all the
- 1:39:59Speaker 3: problem problems that can cause. Now we've got the people
- 1:40:03Speaker 3: using edibles and smokeable marijuana, the legal recreational drug. They
- 1:40:09Speaker 3: can be done all over the country in many places,
- 1:40:13Speaker 3: and this is just kind of keep going up.
- 1:40:15Speaker 1: Yeah, the thing that concerned me in this is it
- 1:40:19Speaker 1: you were right about saying it's twenty one point four
- 1:40:21Speaker 1: million Americans. The next line was age twelve and over. Yes,
- 1:40:27Speaker 1: twelve and over. There is nowhere in the country that
- 1:40:31Speaker 1: anywhere between twelve and sometimes eighteen, sometimes twenty one, depending
- 1:40:36Speaker 1: on the state where you're allowed legally to smoke pot.
- 1:40:40Speaker 1: And one of the problems has become unlike alcohol, if
- 1:40:45Speaker 1: you saw a thirteen year old or a fourteen year
- 1:40:47Speaker 1: old with alcohol, if a cop season, they're gonna stop them,
- 1:40:49Speaker 1: they're gonna they're gonna arrest them, they're gonna tell them,
- 1:40:51Speaker 1: they're gonna get a lecture, they're gonna tell their parents.
- 1:40:53Speaker 1: Doesn't happen with twelve year old smoking pot. It is
- 1:40:57Speaker 1: somehow has become social acceptable for teenagers to smoke pot.
- 1:41:03Speaker 1: And I bet you I can't say that I know
- 1:41:06Speaker 1: every state, but in the states that I do know,
- 1:41:09Speaker 1: that is not enforced, and that is a problem because
- 1:41:13Speaker 1: at that age it does affect your brain growth. And
- 1:41:17Speaker 1: so I would just say, I know the gummies are hot,
- 1:41:21Speaker 1: and I know a lot of moms take gummies because
- 1:41:24Speaker 1: I know some personally. My hell, my wife even thought
- 1:41:27Speaker 1: about it at one point, you know, when things get
- 1:41:30Speaker 1: to deal with you. Yeah, exactly why you want some too.
- 1:41:35Speaker 3: I've had to use them, I'm telling you, as a
- 1:41:40Speaker 3: result of having to be on oxy conton, in which
- 1:41:43Speaker 3: it was it was killing me. Medical marijuana was really
- 1:41:47Speaker 3: my cure for my Crome's disease. I mean the oxies.
- 1:41:51Speaker 3: I went down one hundred and forty pounds that was
- 1:41:53Speaker 3: gonna die well, and did the pot help enormously. You
- 1:41:57Speaker 3: have no appetite. It gives you an appetite without which
- 1:42:00Speaker 3: you're wanna die.
- 1:42:01Speaker 1: Yeah. The medicinal use of it I have always supported.
- 1:42:04Speaker 1: I had a cousin that had brain cancer and they
- 1:42:10Speaker 1: wanted just to be able to take it for the
- 1:42:12Speaker 1: pain for brain cancer, and they weren't allowed to in
- 1:42:14Speaker 1: this state.
- 1:42:15Speaker 3: Yeah, the hospital could not give it because it was
- 1:42:18Speaker 3: at that time a level one narcotic like fenton all
- 1:42:21Speaker 3: Like heroin. Thankfully Donald Trump is knocked it down to
- 1:42:25Speaker 3: a number three dea drug. You'll imagine they were equating
- 1:42:30Speaker 3: marijuana to Fenton all In heroin.
- 1:42:32Speaker 1: Yeah, that's federal law. Most states it's legal in now.
- 1:42:34Speaker 1: Most states have come around and made it legal. My
- 1:42:38Speaker 1: concern is not enforcing the law for kids and teenagers
- 1:42:43Speaker 1: using it. By the way, Rain Paul just wrapped up,
- 1:42:47Speaker 1: so he was taking his good old time. They're going
- 1:42:51Speaker 1: now through the rest of the committee. As again we're
- 1:42:54Speaker 1: watching this. Something happens during this hearing, we will certainly
- 1:42:58Speaker 1: bring it to you, but I will tell you this,
- 1:43:01Speaker 1: this isn't as concerning Natalie. You made me feel better
- 1:43:04Speaker 1: about this survey I was upset about it that more
- 1:43:07Speaker 1: people were taking pot. There's something about gummies that seem.
- 1:43:12Speaker 3: Okay, Well, it's like how many times when you were
- 1:43:15Speaker 3: a kid, A kid would have a pack of good
- 1:43:19Speaker 3: and plenty plenty good chew choot Charlie the engineer, and
- 1:43:22Speaker 3: they give you they chare. This is what those twelve
- 1:43:25Speaker 3: plus kids most some do smoke Dave made, but it's
- 1:43:27Speaker 3: mostly the what looked like candies that are laced with THC.
- 1:43:32Speaker 1: Yeah, and so hew, you gonna catch them if they're
- 1:43:34Speaker 1: just popping candies. But again, it's the brain growth that
- 1:43:37Speaker 1: you have to watch out with. Any have either of
- 1:43:41Speaker 1: you tried a gummy? Did you take them? Yeah?
- 1:43:43Speaker 3: I've tried them.
- 1:43:43Speaker 5: Never had a gummy.
- 1:43:44Speaker 3: It's slow.
- 1:43:45Speaker 1: It's slow, but boom it then hits and when it
- 1:43:49Speaker 1: hits it just calms you downh Yeah.
- 1:43:51Speaker 3: You function, you're slowing down a little bit. Some people
- 1:43:53Speaker 3: they love it because it gets them to a day
- 1:43:56Speaker 3: of high anxiety. Others it's not for them.
- 1:44:00Speaker 1: Yeah, I've never tried one. I know a lot of
- 1:44:02Speaker 1: people that swear by them and it gets them through
- 1:44:06Speaker 1: the day. And more women than men.
- 1:44:09Speaker 5: Oh yeah, I mean, I I don't know.
- 1:44:10Speaker 7: The statistics, but just from people talking, I would say,
- 1:44:15Speaker 7: like every third women woman I know has told.
- 1:44:18Speaker 3: Me they mostly deal with the kids, and that's really
- 1:44:21Speaker 3: what it comes down to.
- 1:44:22Speaker 5: Husband, you know, finances, Yeah, yeah.
- 1:44:26Speaker 3: Life, happiness coming Oh up next, So it's Natalie Migliori.
- 1:44:35Speaker 3: We should have had he asked, We should have had
- 1:44:37Speaker 3: her ask that question down in the streets. But when
- 1:44:40Speaker 3: she comes back, surprise, surprise, surprise.
- 1:44:44Speaker 1: Well you can sell that.
- 1:44:46Speaker 3: Now it's seventen w o rs. Beat on the street
- 1:44:51Speaker 3: with Natalie Migliori. Natalie from the mean, tough streets of
- 1:44:56Speaker 3: the Big n Wise she up here to the air
- 1:44:59Speaker 3: conditions sweets of iHeart seven wr What do you got
- 1:45:03Speaker 3: for us today?
- 1:45:04Speaker 5: All right?
- 1:45:05Speaker 30: Well, there is a growing petition online started by some
- 1:45:09Speaker 30: nine to eleven families who want may Or Mom Donnie
- 1:45:12Speaker 30: excluded from the ceremony commemorating the twenty fifth anniversary of
- 1:45:17Speaker 30: that deadly day.
- 1:45:19Speaker 17: Now, the change dot org petition has.
- 1:45:21Speaker 30: Surpassed forty thousand signatures as of this morning, with organizers
- 1:45:28Speaker 30: raising concerns about the mayor's public positions and his associations.
- 1:45:32Speaker 8: So some New.
- 1:45:33Speaker 17: Yorkers, they've heard about this petition going around.
- 1:45:36Speaker 31: Yeah, I think it's people having their tang yank to
- 1:45:39Speaker 31: in areas we probably don't need their chang yanct.
- 1:45:41Speaker 20: In this moment.
- 1:45:42Speaker 1: I'm not surprised at all because there's a lot of
- 1:45:45Speaker 1: dumb people. Why because he's Moslim, it's offensive.
- 1:45:48Speaker 32: I know a lot of his moves are really controversial,
- 1:45:51Speaker 32: and some people look at it as if he, you know,
- 1:45:54Speaker 32: he's against New York. But he's looking out for a
- 1:45:57Speaker 32: particular set of people. So I think he should be
- 1:46:00Speaker 32: able to attend as long as he keeps his comments
- 1:46:03Speaker 32: himself and leave it at that, all right.
- 1:46:05Speaker 30: Some of those controversial opinions, according to petition organizers, include
- 1:46:09Speaker 30: praising a Brooklyn and mom who was allegedly a co
- 1:46:13Speaker 30: conspirator in the nineteen ninety three.
- 1:46:15Speaker 17: World trade attacks.
- 1:46:17Speaker 30: Will also endorsing candidates like Aberkowas, who has somewhat brushed
- 1:46:22Speaker 30: off the significance of the day.
- 1:46:25Speaker 17: This New Yorker says he sees the hypocrisy.
- 1:46:28Speaker 32: Because he's always saying that everyone should be treated equal
- 1:46:32Speaker 32: and no one should be targeted. But then what he
- 1:46:36Speaker 32: does seems to you, no, not say, but what he
- 1:46:40Speaker 32: does seems to like support the people who are saying
- 1:46:44Speaker 32: they're targeted by socialists. I think that's just ridiculous. Honestly,
- 1:46:48Speaker 32: I feel like if the mayor wants to go, he should.
- 1:46:51Speaker 32: I feel like if he didn't care about it, he
- 1:46:53Speaker 32: would to be the mayor of New York right now.
- 1:46:55Speaker 30: Nine to eleven families say the day is not just
- 1:46:57Speaker 30: about this public ceremony that happens, but a deeply personal
- 1:47:01Speaker 30: day of mourning.
- 1:47:02Speaker 17: And I've been down there on nine to eleven.
- 1:47:04Speaker 30: It is just this day where people come together and
- 1:47:08Speaker 30: we've had, you know, in the past, officials show up
- 1:47:12Speaker 30: or political figures show up and sort of people say, well,
- 1:47:17Speaker 30: they're using it to their advantage. Right now, they're urging
- 1:47:20Speaker 30: organizers to consider if the mayor's presence would align with
- 1:47:24Speaker 30: what the ceremony means. But this New Yorker thinks these
- 1:47:28Speaker 30: petition organizers may be getting a little too caught up.
- 1:47:33Speaker 31: You know, between Democrats and Republicans, they're both pretty well
- 1:47:38Speaker 31: greased at Chain Yankee. When you're in pain, it's hard
- 1:47:42Speaker 31: and it's and it's tough to forgive and forget and
- 1:47:46Speaker 31: see the world differently. And I think we've got to
- 1:47:48Speaker 31: do that work. And I feel for them, but I
- 1:47:51Speaker 31: don't think, uh, taking out on Mom, Donnie and allowing
- 1:47:56Speaker 31: yourself to be used as a political tool is going
- 1:47:58Speaker 31: to help you in your morning.
- 1:48:00Speaker 17: Now, have either one of you put your names on
- 1:48:02Speaker 17: that petition?
- 1:48:04Speaker 5: Would you put your name on that petition?
- 1:48:05Speaker 1: No, I don't count the families. Count the families count.
- 1:48:09Speaker 1: If there's four hundred families that are asking him to
- 1:48:12Speaker 1: stay away, then he should stay away.
- 1:48:14Speaker 3: Well, he's not going to stay away. First off, every
- 1:48:17Speaker 3: Muslim who voted for him put him over the top.
- 1:48:20Speaker 3: There's a million who can now vote. They're going to
- 1:48:22Speaker 3: say you have to go. You're the first Muslim mayor.
- 1:48:25Speaker 3: So I recommended something that the families could do because
- 1:48:28Speaker 3: they are not Islamophobes. They're not doing this because they
- 1:48:32Speaker 3: are hateful of Muslims. It's just turn your back. It's
- 1:48:36Speaker 3: been done before, was done to build a Blasio. When
- 1:48:39Speaker 3: the two police officers were executed while sitting in their
- 1:48:43Speaker 3: patrol car and bedstide, he decided to go to a
- 1:48:46Speaker 3: global conference in Berlin, came back the day of the funeral,
- 1:48:50Speaker 3: and they very politely turned their backs on him, and boy,
- 1:48:53Speaker 3: that resonated all over the world. De Blasio could never
- 1:48:56Speaker 3: escape that the rest of his mayoralty. So there are remedies.
- 1:49:00Speaker 3: But he will show up. There's no doubt.
- 1:49:01Speaker 1: No, I think he will show up too. He shouldn't.
- 1:49:04Speaker 1: He shouldn't even have a say. This isn't his, This
- 1:49:06Speaker 1: is not for him. This is for these families.
- 1:49:09Speaker 30: But there are people who have showed up in the past,
- 1:49:12Speaker 30: right like the President. At the time it was controversial
- 1:49:15Speaker 30: for them. Do you feel as though it politicizes this
- 1:49:18Speaker 30: event when any political figure shows up.
- 1:49:22Speaker 1: That's a great point. I wish they didn't. I wish
- 1:49:25Speaker 1: it was just the families. You're right, And I wish
- 1:49:28Speaker 1: it was just the police force. And I just wish
- 1:49:30Speaker 1: it was the fire department. They this is their day
- 1:49:33Speaker 1: of memory. It's not a politician's both member.
- 1:49:36Speaker 3: It was a little bit of that, not as much,
- 1:49:39Speaker 3: not in the other with the Bush family, because as
- 1:49:42Speaker 3: soon as the towers came down, they made sure that
- 1:49:46Speaker 3: all the Saudis will put on a jet and flew
- 1:49:49Speaker 3: back to Saudi Arabia. No explanations were ever given to us,
- 1:49:54Speaker 3: and there is a sentiment amongst some of the family
- 1:49:58Speaker 3: members that Saudi's were at the heart of this, and
- 1:50:02Speaker 3: some mirrors of the royal family in fact were aiding
- 1:50:05Speaker 3: in a betting the hijackers and the killers of those Americans.
- 1:50:09Speaker 1: Let's just remember that they loved Bush when he was
- 1:50:12Speaker 1: on the pile, and he said, the whole world's gonna
- 1:50:15Speaker 1: hear from us very soon. So I don't think that
- 1:50:18Speaker 1: the nine to eleven families have the same feeling about
- 1:50:22Speaker 1: the Bush family as they do about Mom Donnie. There
- 1:50:24Speaker 1: was no call for him to stay away. There is
- 1:50:27Speaker 1: a call for Mom Donnie to stay away. And I
- 1:50:29Speaker 1: wish he would listen. I wish he would just say,
- 1:50:31Speaker 1: you know what, out of fairness, because I've been asked
- 1:50:34Speaker 1: not to be there, I'm not going to be there.
- 1:50:35Speaker 1: But he won't.
- 1:50:36Speaker 3: But you didn't support him, so he's gonna do what
- 1:50:38Speaker 3: his supporter say. They're gonna say you better show up,
- 1:50:42Speaker 3: especially the Muslims who voted for him. You're the first
- 1:50:45Speaker 3: Muslim mayor. But excellent job, thinking, great responses. It was
- 1:50:50Speaker 3: like a pope Parie. Very boy, you're getting more and
- 1:50:54Speaker 3: more intelligent responses.
- 1:50:56Speaker 5: Thank you.
- 1:50:58Speaker 3: That's not me, it must be your yonds. Anyway, we
- 1:51:02Speaker 3: got a flip from you. You'll be with us same
- 1:51:04Speaker 3: time shame place tomorrow and get the weather updates. That's
- 1:51:07Speaker 3: the number one story at nine o'clock in the news.
- 1:51:10Speaker 1: There is drama playing out in real time at the
- 1:51:14Speaker 1: Senate in Washington, DC, at the hearing of doctor Anthony
- 1:51:19Speaker 1: Falci on his role in COVID and whether he lied
- 1:51:25Speaker 1: to the Senate. He has decided he will take the
- 1:51:29Speaker 1: Fifth Amendment on any questions that have to do with
- 1:51:33Speaker 1: COVID nineteen conclusion.
- 1:51:37Speaker 16: Therefore, although it pains me to do so, because of
- 1:51:42Speaker 16: the respect I have for the legislative branch of government
- 1:51:47Speaker 16: and my decades long record of cooperating with Congress, under
- 1:51:53Speaker 16: the advice of my attorneys, I will invoke my right
- 1:51:57Speaker 16: under the Fifth Amendment of the Constitution to refrain from
- 1:52:01Speaker 16: answering your questions.
- 1:52:03Speaker 1: Thank you. It is a fascinating developer, beginner, It is
- 1:52:09Speaker 1: fascinating development. We're going to go to the hearings live
- 1:52:14Speaker 1: right now.
- 1:52:14Speaker 29: This is Ran Paul is not previously published dot Tralgia.
- 1:52:17Speaker 29: Are you aware of that doctor She who worked for
- 1:52:20Speaker 29: the Wuhan Institute of Virology, was said to and I
- 1:52:25Speaker 29: think in our own words, to have over one hundred
- 1:52:27Speaker 29: viruses that had not been previously published that could have
- 1:52:30Speaker 29: been a.
- 1:52:31Speaker 5: Close enough relative to create COVID.
- 1:52:32Speaker 1: Nineteen. Are you aware of that?
- 1:52:36Speaker 16: On the advice of Council, I respectfully declined to answer,
- 1:52:39Speaker 16: based upon my rights under the Fifth Amendment to the Constitution.
- 1:52:45Speaker 29: Under your testimony previously, when you denied ever having funded
- 1:52:49Speaker 29: gain of Function in China, it was so adamant as
- 1:52:53Speaker 29: to be striking to leave no room for any interpretation
- 1:52:57Speaker 29: of what is or isn't gain of function research. But
- 1:53:00Speaker 29: there's another important question. Did you fund gain of function
- 1:53:03Speaker 29: research and other bio labs around the world?
- 1:53:09Speaker 16: On the advisive Council, I respectfully declined to answer, based
- 1:53:13Speaker 16: upon my rights under the Fifth Amendment to the Constitution.
- 1:53:17Speaker 29: The one research project that we do know you did
- 1:53:19Speaker 29: fund is the one that Ron Fucier did. It's important
- 1:53:23Speaker 29: to talk about because this sort of was the beginning
- 1:53:25Speaker 29: of the debate.
- 1:53:26Speaker 1: Over gain of function.
- 1:53:27Speaker 3: This wasn't just me.
- 1:53:28Speaker 29: I wasn't even aware of the debate ten years ago.
- 1:53:31Speaker 3: This was other scientists.
- 1:53:32Speaker 29: Over two hundred scientists at the Cambridge Working Group signed
- 1:53:35Speaker 29: a protest because they didn't think you should fund the research,
- 1:53:38Speaker 29: and they didn't think it should even be fun published
- 1:53:41Speaker 29: because it was sort of a roadmap as to how
- 1:53:43Speaker 29: to make a buyer weapon so what they did was
- 1:53:45Speaker 29: the avian flu. And this is important and maybe the
- 1:53:47Speaker 29: most important question we get to here. Today the avian
- 1:53:50Speaker 29: flu is about fifty percent mortality for humans. The good
- 1:53:54Speaker 29: news though about animal viruses is they don't infect humans
- 1:53:57Speaker 29: very well.
- 1:53:57Speaker 1: It will infect.
- 1:53:58Speaker 29: Humans, but doesn't go human to human very well. Ron Futier,
- 1:54:03Speaker 29: with the money that you provided to him, did an
- 1:54:06Speaker 29: experiment where he caused purposeful mutations to create a new virus,
- 1:54:10Speaker 29: an avi and flu that didn't just infect birds well,
- 1:54:13Speaker 29: but actually infected mammals well, went fair to ferret in
- 1:54:17Speaker 29: an aerosolized manner. People saw this and were agast, you know,
- 1:54:22Speaker 29: at the decision making process that you decided to fund this.
- 1:54:25Speaker 1: But this is when you know the debate came about
- 1:54:28Speaker 1: and you wrote in supported this in the Washington.
- 1:54:30Speaker 29: Post and you said, even if a scientist is bitten,
- 1:54:33Speaker 29: even if a pandemic should occur, the knowledge is worth
- 1:54:37Speaker 29: the risks. Do you still stand by that? Would you
- 1:54:40Speaker 29: have to qualify at all whether or not the knowledge
- 1:54:43Speaker 29: of gain of function is worth the risks, particularly in
- 1:54:46Speaker 29: this case, since we now know fifteen million.
- 1:54:48Speaker 1: People died worldwide.
- 1:54:50Speaker 29: Many people believe this came from the lab do you
- 1:54:52Speaker 29: think that the risks really are worth the benefits for
- 1:54:55Speaker 29: gain of function research?
- 1:54:58Speaker 16: On the Adviceive Council respectfully declined to answer, based upon
- 1:55:02Speaker 16: my rights under the Fifth.
- 1:55:04Speaker 3: Amendment to the Constitution. All right, we're.
- 1:55:10Speaker 1: Gonna finish with this question.
- 1:55:12Speaker 29: And it's based really on that statement, that general statement
- 1:55:15Speaker 29: in your support for gain of function, the idea that
- 1:55:18Speaker 29: the benefits.
- 1:55:19Speaker 1: Outweigh the risks.
- 1:55:21Speaker 29: So there are many other people who disagreed, and they
- 1:55:23Speaker 29: aren't politicians or not. I don't know what party they're in.
- 1:55:26Speaker 29: David Relman is probably one of the most esteemed, and
- 1:55:30Speaker 29: he is a scientist at Stanford. He I think has
- 1:55:33Speaker 29: classified clearance. He's been a consultant to our government probably
- 1:55:37Speaker 29: for a decade or more, and he's written about this publicly.
- 1:55:42Speaker 3: He says the opposite.
- 1:55:43Speaker 29: He said that the risks of this research do not
- 1:55:47Speaker 29: outweigh the benefits. He said there is we shouldn't do it.
- 1:55:51Speaker 1: Richard E.
- 1:55:51Speaker 29: Bright, who's been involved in this debate for two decades,
- 1:55:54Speaker 29: says the same thing, does it We really shouldn't be
- 1:55:57Speaker 29: doing this at all. There's a quote also by.
- 1:56:05Speaker 1: If the Kevin S.
- 1:56:06Speaker 29: Felt quote is that at the very.
- 1:56:07Speaker 3: End brand pol crush examining Fauci's taking the Fifth Amendment
- 1:56:18Speaker 3: to each question.
- 1:56:19Speaker 29: It's a crisper scientist at MIT also wrote about this
- 1:56:24Speaker 29: gain of function. I implore every scientist's funder and nation
- 1:56:30Speaker 29: working in the field, please stop. No more trying to
- 1:56:32Speaker 29: discover or make pandemic capable viruses. No more experiments likely
- 1:56:37Speaker 29: to disseminate blueprints for plagues. Doctor Fauci, would you like
- 1:56:42Speaker 29: to at least answer this one question for us today
- 1:56:45Speaker 29: and let us know whether or not you've changed your
- 1:56:47Speaker 29: mind on whether or not the benefits of gain of
- 1:56:50Speaker 29: function research outweigh the risks.
- 1:56:54Speaker 3: On the adviceive Council.
- 1:56:55Speaker 16: I respectfully declined to answer based upon my rights under
- 1:56:59Speaker 16: the Fifth Amendment to the Constitution.
- 1:57:04Speaker 29: Sure, the Chairman has denied your assertion of privilege and
- 1:57:08Speaker 29: directed you to answer them, but you nonetheless refuse and
- 1:57:11Speaker 29: stand on privilege despite the existence of the part. The
- 1:57:14Speaker 29: Committee will have to consider after this hearing what appropriate
- 1:57:17Speaker 29: action should be taken against you for the failure to
- 1:57:20Speaker 29: testify after being directed to do so. It's against the
- 1:57:23Speaker 29: law to obstruct an investigation of Congress. There will be
- 1:57:27Speaker 29: repercussions to your refusal to testify today Center Peters.
- 1:57:33Speaker 1: Yeah, so we missed at the very beginning when he
- 1:57:36Speaker 1: gave him the warning that he has no constitutional right
- 1:57:39Speaker 1: to take the Fifth Amendment and that they're going to
- 1:57:42Speaker 1: You heard him say there's going to be repercussions for this.
- 1:57:45Speaker 1: But what you just heard was history, and I'm glad
- 1:57:48Speaker 1: we were able to bring it to you live by
- 1:57:51Speaker 1: the way for those I think most people know, But
- 1:57:53Speaker 1: just in case you're not aware of GAINA function research,
- 1:57:56Speaker 1: it is taking a virus and making it more powerful
- 1:58:00Speaker 1: and more dangerous and possibility of creating a pandemic so
- 1:58:04Speaker 1: that you can then just come up with a cure
- 1:58:06Speaker 1: for it before that ever happens. The problem is if
- 1:58:10Speaker 1: there is a leak, the pandemic is unleashed on the world.
- 1:58:15Speaker 1: And many believe in that there are emails that back
- 1:58:18Speaker 1: this up, that that's exactly what happened in.
- 1:58:20Speaker 3: Wuhan, probably one of the most famous movie scenes of
- 1:58:24Speaker 3: all time. And The Godfather, Remember Michael Corleone before a
- 1:58:28Speaker 3: congressional committee investigating organized crime. He's mean asked questions Tom Hagen,
- 1:58:34Speaker 3: the CONSIGLIERI tales and whispers in his air chairman based
- 1:58:39Speaker 3: on my Fifth Amendment right, I refuse to answer the
- 1:58:43Speaker 3: question because it could be self incriminating. Remember, he answered
- 1:58:46Speaker 3: each and every question. It's a scene right out of
- 1:58:49Speaker 3: The Godfather, and these are serious questions. He's a learned man.
- 1:58:53Speaker 3: He made decisions. He's refusing to explain them now. And
- 1:58:58Speaker 3: Ryan Paul has his own diaries, has all the information.
- 1:59:03Speaker 3: This is not only dramatic, but this, as you pointed out, Larry,
- 1:59:07Speaker 3: I'm glad you made this decision. It's history in the making.
- 1:59:10Speaker 1: It is history in the making. And I know legally
- 1:59:13Speaker 1: this can't be held against him, but we can hold
- 1:59:15Speaker 1: it against him because he is covering his own butt
- 1:59:19Speaker 1: right now. That is what he's doing in front of
- 1:59:21Speaker 1: the world. Everything that Rand Paul was asking is absolutely true,
- 1:59:27Speaker 1: and it is too embarrassing for him to answer those questions. Remember,
- 1:59:31Speaker 1: he can't be charged with anything right now. He has
- 1:59:35Speaker 1: a blanket pardon, a preempt of pardon, so he can't
- 1:59:39Speaker 1: be charged with anything. But this smug sob is sitting
- 1:59:43Speaker 1: there refusing to acknowledge what he did. And we read
- 1:59:47Speaker 1: his diary, right You've read portions of his diary. This
- 1:59:51Speaker 1: is a narcissist who believes that he is impregnable. He
- 1:59:56Speaker 1: believes he is above mere humans, believes he is above
- 2:00:01Speaker 1: Rand Paul, and he sits there smugly refusing to tell
- 2:00:05Speaker 1: the world what he did. I believe what Ron Johnson said.
- 2:00:09Speaker 1: This man is going to go down as one of
- 2:00:12Speaker 1: the great villains of all time. Now I believe his lawyer,
- 2:00:16Speaker 1: he's come lawyered up. He is packing his bags. They
- 2:00:20Speaker 1: may actually exit this hearing based on this Fifth Amendment
- 2:00:24Speaker 1: defense of not implicating himself. Let's jump back in for
- 2:00:29Speaker 1: one second to find out what's going on and initial
- 2:00:33Speaker 1: response to COVID nineteen.
- 2:00:36Speaker 15: This report contained seventeen key findings.
- 2:00:40Speaker 1: That Senator Peters. I think that his attorneys walked out
- 2:00:45Speaker 1: because it's pretty clear what he's supposed to do.
- 2:00:48Speaker 3: Right now, Wow, the drama, and we're going to be
- 2:00:51Speaker 3: covering this next segment. We should discuss this in full
- 2:00:54Speaker 3: length about what just transpired, and then obviously tomorrow back
- 2:00:59Speaker 3: to back to belly. There'll be so much to be
- 2:01:02Speaker 3: able to process. For all of you, ladies and gentlemen,
- 2:01:05Speaker 3: you have just been a listening witness to history and
- 2:01:12Speaker 3: the making. Rarely has this ever transpired at congressional or
- 2:01:17Speaker 3: Senate hearings.
- 2:01:18Speaker 1: A great time for talkback. Still, I'd love to hear
- 2:01:20Speaker 1: what you think about what you just heard. Go to
- 2:01:23Speaker 1: the iHeartRadio app and let us know. We'll be dealing
- 2:01:27Speaker 1: with this when we come right back.
- 2:01:28Speaker 3: Dot com.
- 2:01:29Speaker 1: Well, you just heard history in the making. Anthony Fauci
- 2:01:33Speaker 1: is still testifying right now. Senator Ron Johnson from Wisconsin
- 2:01:39Speaker 1: has taken over the questioning. He has been working hand
- 2:01:42Speaker 1: in hand with Ran Paul, who just finished up his interrogation.
- 2:01:48Speaker 1: We should tell you that through all of this, Fauci
- 2:01:52Speaker 1: has been taking the Fifth Amendment. So let's let's hear
- 2:01:55Speaker 1: what's going on right now.
- 2:01:57Speaker 27: Deplatformed, I think largely the rest of the actions you
- 2:02:03Speaker 27: took to make sure that disinformation wasn't spread. This wasn't disinformation,
- 2:02:07Speaker 27: this was the truth. So I was going to ask
- 2:02:11Speaker 27: you whether you knew doctor Marx.
- 2:02:12Speaker 1: I think you do know him. He's the head of Seeber.
- 2:02:14Speaker 27: He's the man who was in charge of approving vaccines
- 2:02:18Speaker 27: and surveilling for the safety my my investigation investigation shows
- 2:02:23Speaker 27: that on March first of twenty twenty one, less than
- 2:02:25Speaker 27: three months after the emergency's authorizations, he was warned by
- 2:02:28Speaker 27: doctor Anna Sharsman, data mine expert that the algorithm they
- 2:02:31Speaker 27: were using to analyze Veayer's data was going to hide
- 2:02:35Speaker 27: and mass safety signals.
- 2:02:38Speaker 1: Twenty six days later, in.
- 2:02:39Speaker 27: Three months consecutively after that, they did data runs with
- 2:02:42Speaker 27: a new algorithm.
- 2:02:45Speaker 1: That unmasked those safety signals.
- 2:02:47Speaker 27: They showed dozens of safety signals, including sudden cardiac death,
- 2:02:53Speaker 27: cerebral artery, occlusion, basil ganglia, stroke, agonald rhythm, Bell's palsy,
- 2:03:00Speaker 27: and pulmonary infarction.
- 2:03:04Speaker 1: Your diaries now show that you actually suffered.
- 2:03:09Speaker 27: Pulmonary infarction, and I think probably June twenty twenty one,
- 2:03:12Speaker 27: I was just wondering. I was just wondering whether you
- 2:03:16Speaker 27: ever went through your mind, but maybe that injection, all
- 2:03:22Speaker 27: those booses you took might have caused that. And the question,
- 2:03:25Speaker 27: and I'll ask this question, were you ever made aware
- 2:03:27Speaker 27: of the fact that Peter Marx was warned that the
- 2:03:32Speaker 27: algorithm was going to hide the safety signals? And were
- 2:03:36Speaker 27: you told that senior FD officials were given dozens showing
- 2:03:41Speaker 27: dozens of safety signals associated with the COVID injection.
- 2:03:47Speaker 3: On the Advisive Council.
- 2:03:49Speaker 16: I respectfully declined to answer, based upon my rights under
- 2:03:52Speaker 16: the Fifth Amendment to the Constitution.
- 2:03:54Speaker 1: Okay, that was fascinating, and we can drop out of
- 2:03:56Speaker 1: that because he's just going to take that. He's going
- 2:03:58Speaker 1: to keep taking the fifth What you just heard from
- 2:04:01Speaker 1: Ron Johnson is that Falci was warned that the algorithm
- 2:04:06Speaker 1: was flawed and that there were a lot, a lot
- 2:04:09Speaker 1: of possible detrimental actions that could happen in the human
- 2:04:14Speaker 1: body after the vaccine was taken. And the implication was,
- 2:04:19Speaker 1: and the question was, did you purposely ignore that, especially
- 2:04:24Speaker 1: after he had an infraction as well, after just weeks
- 2:04:29Speaker 1: after taking the injection, taking the vaccine, and he kept
- 2:04:34Speaker 1: that a secret. He didn't tell anybody. And the implication
- 2:04:37Speaker 1: of that is that he knew damn well that it
- 2:04:41Speaker 1: was dangerous and he hid that from the American public.
- 2:04:44Speaker 1: And that's why he continues to take the Fifth Amendment
- 2:04:48Speaker 1: because listen, it doesn't hold up in legal in a court,
- 2:04:53Speaker 1: in the legal system, it doesn't hold up that That
- 2:04:56Speaker 1: makes them guilty in my mind, and I think in
- 2:04:58Speaker 1: the mind of many America this morning as they listened
- 2:05:01Speaker 1: to this, he's guilty of sin.
- 2:05:03Speaker 3: And what Ron Johnson, the Senator of Wisconsin, was referring
- 2:05:06Speaker 3: to his own malady that required hospitalization. He wrote about
- 2:05:10Speaker 3: it in his own diary. That's how we know this.
- 2:05:14Speaker 3: He wrote about it. And again, if you're joining us,
- 2:05:16Speaker 3: R F K Jr. Head of the Department of Health
- 2:05:20Speaker 3: and Services, received the diary from a worker who was
- 2:05:25Speaker 3: still employed. Was there when doctor Fauchua says, hey, he
- 2:05:28Speaker 3: left his diaries on the government server from twenty nineteen
- 2:05:32Speaker 3: to twenty twenty two. He was fastidious in entering a
- 2:05:36Speaker 3: diary entry each and every day for three years. It
- 2:05:40Speaker 3: isn't his when it's on the government server. It belongs
- 2:05:43Speaker 3: to the United States. And that's how Ran Paul got it.
- 2:05:46Speaker 3: And that's why he's taking the fifth because he's implicated
- 2:05:49Speaker 3: himself in his own diaries.
- 2:05:51Speaker 1: Here's RFK Junior talking about what Curtis just said.
- 2:05:55Speaker 26: Got vaccinated.
- 2:05:57Speaker 1: I'm very very public.
- 2:06:00Speaker 26: In January of twenty twenty and then five months later
- 2:06:05Speaker 26: he had him this the first time that we knew
- 2:06:08Speaker 26: this from the diary. He had a pulmonary infarction, which
- 2:06:12Speaker 26: is one of the average events at NIA, CDC and
- 2:06:17Speaker 26: FDAs that are expected from the vaccine.
- 2:06:20Speaker 1: He never told anybody, right, that's important information, isn't it
- 2:06:24Speaker 1: wouldn't that be important information? He hid that and so
- 2:06:28Speaker 1: many things from us. He lied about everything. He lied
- 2:06:31Speaker 1: about the masks, he lied about the shutdowns, he lied
- 2:06:34Speaker 1: about the vaccines, And now he has the nerve to
- 2:06:37Speaker 1: sit there smugly. Oh, I shouldn't say smug. He looks
- 2:06:39Speaker 1: scared as hell right now. Is the idolatry is over.
- 2:06:44Speaker 3: He's fallen from the pedestal, from being the guardian angel
- 2:06:47Speaker 3: of our health services. He is now the archangel. And
- 2:06:51Speaker 3: by the way, I didn't know this. You informed me
- 2:06:54Speaker 3: of this. But while we were in break, Ron poll
- 2:06:58Speaker 3: who is the chairman of this committee, hold his attorney
- 2:07:01Speaker 3: is Tom Hagen. Sir, you're no longer requested to be
- 2:07:05Speaker 3: here in this committee hearing. And you saw very traumatically
- 2:07:08Speaker 3: he got up, he packed his valise and he walked off.
- 2:07:13Speaker 1: Yeah. Ron Johnson is doing the questioning right now. And
- 2:07:17Speaker 1: what is really fascinating is before this hearing, he made
- 2:07:20Speaker 1: a prediction that is turning out to be true.
- 2:07:23Speaker 27: He was probably one of the most famous people at
- 2:07:26Speaker 27: that time. I think you'll go down in history, is
- 2:07:28Speaker 27: one of the most infamous villains of history.
- 2:07:31Speaker 1: Yeah, and he knows that he knows that that this
- 2:07:34Speaker 1: is what's happening to him. Everything he built, all the accolades,
- 2:07:38Speaker 1: he got, all the love, he got, all the things
- 2:07:41Speaker 1: he wanted so much. That was in his diary. By
- 2:07:43Speaker 1: the way, that's almost all he wrote about is the
- 2:07:46Speaker 1: self love and the admiration he was getting from movie stars.
- 2:07:51Speaker 1: That's what he was big on. Bono, Julia Roberts, so
- 2:07:54Speaker 1: many of them. He was basking in that. Now, look
- 2:07:59Speaker 1: how he's fallen. Whole world depended on him. It wasn't
- 2:08:02Speaker 1: just the United States. The whole world was listening to
- 2:08:06Speaker 1: doctor Fauci. They weren't even listening to the World Health Organization.
- 2:08:10Speaker 1: They waited for a doctor Fauci update, as if he
- 2:08:14Speaker 1: was infallible, as if God himself was speaking to doctor
- 2:08:19Speaker 1: Fauci and.
- 2:08:20Speaker 3: Was all alive.
- 2:08:21Speaker 1: I cannot wait to come in tomorrow morning to hear
- 2:08:26Speaker 1: from all of you and what you think of doctor Fauci. Now,
- 2:08:31Speaker 1: many of you, I know, knew this all along. Many
- 2:08:33Speaker 1: of you hated him. But there are so many people
- 2:08:37Speaker 1: that believed in him, and many of those people that
- 2:08:40Speaker 1: believed in him, he took part in killing them. And
- 2:08:44Speaker 1: this listen, he's sitting there. He can't believe the world
- 2:08:48Speaker 1: is falling out or falling around him. Right now. It's
- 2:08:51Speaker 1: falling down. It's crumbling all around him. His life is
- 2:08:55Speaker 1: crumbling right now. He knows it.
- 2:08:58Speaker 3: His own words destroyed his life, his own diary. Maybe
- 2:09:03Speaker 3: some of you out there you'll love to make you
- 2:09:05Speaker 3: a diary entry. You may want to think twice about that.
- 2:09:10Speaker 1: Don't do it on the computer at work, because they're
- 2:09:13Speaker 1: gonna have it forever. Let's get the news at nine
- 2:09:15Speaker 1: point thirty with Daria Aubinger Darias funny guys.
- 2:09:18Speaker 8: It looks like the worst is behind est, at least
- 2:09:20Speaker 8: as far as the flooding, but we could still get
- 2:09:22Speaker 8: some storms today. Some places are still dealing with flooded roads,
- 2:09:25Speaker 8: especially in New Jersey, where Jersey Central Power and Light
- 2:09:29Speaker 8: is dealing with about twenty eight hundred outages. Connent says
- 2:09:32Speaker 8: it's down to some sporadic outages across the borough. Doctor
- 2:09:35Speaker 8: Anthony Fauci is invoked the fifth at the Senate Homeland
- 2:09:38Speaker 8: Security Committee hearing, which is underway now. The panel, led
- 2:09:41Speaker 8: by Kentucky Republican Ran Paul, is questioning the former health
- 2:09:45Speaker 8: official about his response to the COVID nineteen pandemic, including
- 2:09:48Speaker 8: if he misled Congress in order to get more money
- 2:09:51Speaker 8: for COVID Research FOUNCI has already been given a presmptive
- 2:09:54Speaker 8: pardon from former President Biden. A sixth person has died
- 2:09:58Speaker 8: from Legionnaire's disease on the Upper east Side. Health officials
- 2:10:02Speaker 8: say cooling towers in Carnegie Hill and in Yorkville, which
- 2:10:06Speaker 8: are believed to be behind the outbreak, are still being cleaned.
- 2:10:09Speaker 4: Well.
- 2:10:10Speaker 8: Someone in Florida woke up very wealthy today, very very
- 2:10:14Speaker 8: very wealthy. They won last night's eight hundred million dollar
- 2:10:18Speaker 8: Mega Million's jackpot. Friday is drawing is going to be
- 2:10:20Speaker 8: for au poultry fifty million bucks.
- 2:10:22Speaker 20: What do you do with that?
- 2:10:23Speaker 8: With a twenty one million dollar cash option? So we
- 2:10:25Speaker 8: have to keep putting money in our retirement accounts. And
- 2:10:28Speaker 8: the opening bell is now ringing on Well Street.
- 2:10:31Speaker 3: Things.
- 2:10:31Speaker 8: Eh, they're in the red column. So far not looking
- 2:10:33Speaker 8: too good. Dow is down four hundred and sixty points,
- 2:10:36Speaker 8: the Nasdaq is off fifty two points. The SMP is
- 2:10:39Speaker 8: ten points in the minus column. Investors a little bit
- 2:10:43Speaker 8: jittery right now ahead of the Fed announcement later today.
- 2:10:45Speaker 8: That could change. We'll see next news ten o'clock bulletins
- 2:10:48Speaker 8: at once. I'm Daria Albinger on seven to ten w.
- 2:10:51Speaker 3: R oh Zackobergometa wrote an editorial New York Times. It said,
- 2:10:56Speaker 3: we need to share and share a like. Nobody should
- 2:10:58Speaker 3: have control of AI technology. Why because he's not in
- 2:11:02Speaker 3: the running. Right now, We'll get an update from our
- 2:11:04Speaker 3: own tech guy, Rich de Muro. But think about iHeart
- 2:11:10Speaker 3: and its concert series and musical festival that is back,
- 2:11:13Speaker 3: featuring live performances by Benson Boone, the Google Dolls, Kenny Chesney,
- 2:11:18Speaker 3: Laney Wilson, Snoop, Doggie Dog, Weezer, and Moore September eighteenth
- 2:11:22Speaker 3: and nineteenth at the T Mobile Arena in Las Vegas.
- 2:11:25Speaker 3: That's two nights, one stage. Now's your chance to buy
- 2:11:28Speaker 3: tickets at AXS dot com. Get him now before they
- 2:11:32Speaker 3: sell out two hundred. Another race to dominate AI continues.
- 2:11:37Speaker 3: American companies and now the Red Chinese and Mark Zuckerberg
- 2:11:43Speaker 3: had an editorial in Today's New York Times. And I
- 2:11:46Speaker 3: need Rich de Murro, Rich on Tech, which has heard
- 2:11:49Speaker 3: Sunday nights from eight to eleven right here on Woorr.
- 2:11:52Speaker 3: He's our tech expert to break it down for me,
- 2:11:56Speaker 3: because I gotta tell you, Rich, some of the language
- 2:11:59Speaker 3: in there I think quite necessarily get a hang on,
- 2:12:03Speaker 3: what's the Zuck talking about?
- 2:12:06Speaker 19: Well, I think look, anytime you talk about AI right now,
- 2:12:09Speaker 19: there is a lot of opinions on how much we
- 2:12:12Speaker 19: should restrain it, how much we should move forward, whether
- 2:12:15Speaker 19: we should be open or closed sourced with the models
- 2:12:18Speaker 19: that we allow people to have, and of course, like
- 2:12:21Speaker 19: you mentioned China being a big.
- 2:12:22Speaker 1: Aspect of this as well.
- 2:12:24Speaker 19: But I think what he was doing is basically saying
- 2:12:27Speaker 19: he is very optimistic about AI. He thinks that it's
- 2:12:30Speaker 19: going to create jobs, create opportunities, not take away all
- 2:12:34Speaker 19: these jobs and take away opportunities. He also thinks that
- 2:12:37Speaker 19: people should be empowered to use this, and he does
- 2:12:40Speaker 19: believe that a more open foundation of AI is a
- 2:12:45Speaker 19: good thing. And you know, there's two schools of thought there.
- 2:12:48Speaker 19: Number one is you make all these models, and the
- 2:12:51Speaker 19: big companies control them, and then of course the governments
- 2:12:53Speaker 19: control what those big companies can do. And the second
- 2:12:56Speaker 19: is that you just kind of put these out there
- 2:12:59Speaker 19: as an open source and let people be the judge,
- 2:13:02Speaker 19: let them figure out what they can do with them.
- 2:13:04Speaker 19: And that's kind of what China's been doing. They've been
- 2:13:06Speaker 19: putting out these models that are very high powered that
- 2:13:09Speaker 19: anyone can use and download and make things for free
- 2:13:12Speaker 19: out of versus our two big companies, Anthropic and Open AI,
- 2:13:15Speaker 19: very closed about their models. They don't necessarily let people
- 2:13:18Speaker 19: just download what they're doing. You got to pay for
- 2:13:21Speaker 19: the access.
- 2:13:22Speaker 1: So, as you know, it's been pretty well established in
- 2:13:24Speaker 1: our conversations. I'm an Apple guy. I'm an Apple guy
- 2:13:27Speaker 1: all the way. And when I talk to people about
- 2:13:30Speaker 1: why they don't go with Apple because I think it's
- 2:13:32Speaker 1: so much better, it may not be, but I think
- 2:13:35Speaker 1: that it's because of the cost. And now this lease
- 2:13:39Speaker 1: program seems fascinating.
- 2:13:41Speaker 19: Explain yeah, I mean, basically, if you understand the concept
- 2:13:46Speaker 19: of leasing a car, that is what Apple is doing
- 2:13:48Speaker 19: with their new program called Apple Upgrade. So you can
- 2:13:51Speaker 19: now lease your iPhone, you can lease an Apple Watch,
- 2:13:55Speaker 19: you can lease a Mac computer, a tablet. Keep in mind,
- 2:13:59Speaker 19: it's not the cheapest I shouldn't say cheap, because Apple
- 2:14:02Speaker 19: is never cheap, but the entry level products are typically
- 2:14:05Speaker 19: not included, but all the rest are. And so we're
- 2:14:08Speaker 19: talking an iPhone for eighteen bucks a month, We're talking
- 2:14:11Speaker 19: an Apple Watch for twelve dollars a month. It is
- 2:14:13Speaker 19: either twelve or twenty four months that you can have this,
- 2:14:16Speaker 19: but at the end, you either have to give it back,
- 2:14:19Speaker 19: you have to continue with the new product, or you
- 2:14:21Speaker 19: got to pay the difference. And the other side of
- 2:14:23Speaker 19: this is that if they're you know, your device is
- 2:14:26Speaker 19: damaged or broken at the end, just like a car lease,
- 2:14:28Speaker 19: you're gonna have to pay. And one other thing about this, so,
- 2:14:32Speaker 19: you know, you think about all these Apple products that
- 2:14:34Speaker 19: they have. I think that the problem is people are
- 2:14:37Speaker 19: not upgrading enough. And I think that's what Apple is
- 2:14:40Speaker 19: trying to get around here by saying, hey, look, let's
- 2:14:43Speaker 19: dangle this shiny new thing in front of you. It's
- 2:14:45Speaker 19: only twelve dollars a month, instead of people sticking with
- 2:14:48Speaker 19: their phones from three to four years, which is what
- 2:14:50Speaker 19: they're currently doing now.
- 2:14:51Speaker 3: Rich Ariana Grande, as big as it gets in the
- 2:14:56Speaker 3: music world, is suing anonymous hackers. First off, how do
- 2:15:01Speaker 3: you sue anonymous hackers? That's the reason they're anonymous? A
- 2:15:06Speaker 3: good question.
- 2:15:07Speaker 19: Well, I think what's happening here. I think there's a
- 2:15:09Speaker 19: lesson for all of us now. You know, I don't
- 2:15:11Speaker 19: think anyone's crying for Ariana Grande. She's been very successful.
- 2:15:15Speaker 19: But the problem is, over the past couple of years,
- 2:15:17Speaker 19: her unreleased music videos. Photos have gotten out there in
- 2:15:22Speaker 19: a big way on the Internet. And how are they
- 2:15:25Speaker 19: getting out there? The hackers are targeting people close to her.
- 2:15:30Speaker 19: So even though she may not even use Dropbox or
- 2:15:32Speaker 19: she may not have these photos on her computer that
- 2:15:35Speaker 19: she just took, you know, for a photo shoot, the
- 2:15:38Speaker 19: people around her do, and so these hackers are appealing
- 2:15:41Speaker 19: to them and tricking them into giving up access. And
- 2:15:44Speaker 19: so I think the lesson for us Number one, she's
- 2:15:47Speaker 19: suing to try to figure out who these people are
- 2:15:49Speaker 19: that are actually getting access to her stuff, and they'll
- 2:15:52Speaker 19: figure it out eventually. But I think for the rest
- 2:15:54Speaker 19: of us, you have to understand that you may be secure,
- 2:15:57Speaker 19: but there are other people, your family members, your friends,
- 2:16:01Speaker 19: who may give up information about you and be tricked,
- 2:16:04Speaker 19: especially if you're in a corporate aspect, you're a big
- 2:16:06Speaker 19: high level executive or anyone, they may give up information
- 2:16:10Speaker 19: about you that could then lead hackers to get into
- 2:16:12Speaker 19: your account. So I think the lesson here is that
- 2:16:15Speaker 19: we need to be careful with all requests that we get,
- 2:16:18Speaker 19: no matter who they come from.
- 2:16:20Speaker 1: It's funny everything old is new again, I guess, even
- 2:16:23Speaker 1: with tech. I remember we all had flip phones. Remember
- 2:16:25Speaker 1: that everybody had a flip phone, and then Apple came
- 2:16:30Speaker 1: out with their iPhone and it seemed to change everything.
- 2:16:34Speaker 1: Everybody went with just a device that almost looked like
- 2:16:37Speaker 1: a small computer. Tell me about this Samsung newfordable foldable phone,
- 2:16:44Speaker 1: because it seems like it's selling. It's like hotcakes. Is
- 2:16:48Speaker 1: it like an old flip.
- 2:16:51Speaker 19: They've got three models this year, so yes, they do
- 2:16:53Speaker 19: have one. It's called a Flip eight, which yes, looks
- 2:16:56Speaker 19: like kind of if you remember the old Motorola eraser
- 2:16:58Speaker 19: that everyone had that was a very successful device. That's
- 2:17:02Speaker 19: one of the phones, and that's the least expensive at
- 2:17:03Speaker 19: twelve hundred dollars, which by the way, felt very expensive
- 2:17:06Speaker 19: for a flip phone back in the day. We got
- 2:17:08Speaker 19: them for a penny, remember that. Yeah, and then of
- 2:17:10Speaker 19: course your bill was more expensive every month. But they
- 2:17:14Speaker 19: have three models. They've got two that are more like
- 2:17:17Speaker 19: a book style foldable, the Galaxy Z Fold eight Ultra
- 2:17:21Speaker 19: and then the Galaxy Z Fold eight. The fold eight
- 2:17:24Speaker 19: is the one that's getting a lot of attention because
- 2:17:26Speaker 19: it looks like a mini passport and so you open
- 2:17:30Speaker 19: it up like a book. It's small, it's compact, it
- 2:17:32Speaker 19: fits in your pocket. It's got this nice bik Is
- 2:17:35Speaker 19: screen on the outside, but then a really big screen
- 2:17:38Speaker 19: on the inside, which is perfect for watching videos, looking
- 2:17:40Speaker 19: at photos, maybe doing spreadsheets. That starts at nineteen hundred dollars.
- 2:17:45Speaker 19: The Ultra starts at twenty one hundred dollars. These are
- 2:17:48Speaker 19: very expensive, but they're very popular. People are kind of
- 2:17:52Speaker 19: taking a liking to them. They are in stores on
- 2:17:54Speaker 19: August seventh. But again, Larry and Curtis, I think this
- 2:17:57Speaker 19: goes back to what I was just talking about with Apple.
- 2:17:59Speaker 19: We know that Apple is coming out with a foldable
- 2:18:01Speaker 19: or supposedly later this year. We also know it's going
- 2:18:04Speaker 19: to be very expensive. No one wants to spend twenty
- 2:18:07Speaker 19: twenty five dollars on a phone. But if they're leasing
- 2:18:10Speaker 19: you that new foldable that's got the best technology for
- 2:18:12Speaker 19: fifty bucks a month, seems much more easy to you know,
- 2:18:17Speaker 19: take in and say okay, fine, I'll do that payment.
- 2:18:19Speaker 1: So they're getting out ahead of that. That's brilliant. Thanks
- 2:18:21Speaker 1: so much. Richard Demiro rich on Tech has heard Sunday
- 2:18:24Speaker 1: nights from eight to eleven pm on wr You can
- 2:18:28Speaker 1: also talk to him ask him questions on your own
- 2:18:30Speaker 1: and see what's going on at rich on Tech on Instagram.
- 2:18:34Speaker 1: Thanks a lot, Rich. When we come back, we're going
- 2:18:37Speaker 1: to dip back in to hear the Fauci hearings because
- 2:18:40Speaker 1: it is the story of the day. This is historic
- 2:18:44Speaker 1: and we'll be covering it more next Well. That well,
- 2:18:48Speaker 1: Anthony Fauci, Doctor Anthony Fauci is still not testifying. He
- 2:18:52Speaker 1: is appearing before Senate, but he's been taking the Fifth
- 2:18:55Speaker 1: Amendment to every question. And you might ask, how can
- 2:18:58Speaker 1: he possibly take the Fifth Amendment since there can't be prosecution, Well,
- 2:19:05Speaker 1: maybe there can be. Maybe there are crimes that are
- 2:19:08Speaker 1: not covered by the pardon because it had dates on it.
- 2:19:12Speaker 1: So I believe he's taking the fifth And the argument
- 2:19:16Speaker 1: will be as this goes to court that this is
- 2:19:19Speaker 1: because of other crimes that may have come up and
- 2:19:22Speaker 1: he wanted to take the Fifth throughout. We'll see if
- 2:19:25Speaker 1: it plays out that way. In the meantime, in case
- 2:19:28Speaker 1: you haven't heard, here's what you miss from rand Paul.
- 2:19:31Speaker 29: Instead of an apology, you have for years avoided responsibility
- 2:19:36Speaker 29: regarding the lockdowns. You argue that you did not personally
- 2:19:39Speaker 29: issue every lockdown order, close every school, or impose every mandate,
- 2:19:44Speaker 29: but officials across the country, invoked your authority to justify
- 2:19:48Speaker 29: these decisions.
- 2:19:49Speaker 1: Right any rinked tavoc on the world. And let's just
- 2:19:53Speaker 1: tell you, show you, or let you hear. I should say,
- 2:19:57Speaker 1: let you hear exactly how he ends answered every question conclusion.
- 2:20:03Speaker 16: Therefore, although it pains me to do so, because of
- 2:20:08Speaker 16: the respect I have for the legislative branch of government
- 2:20:14Speaker 16: and my decades long record of cooperating with Congress, under
- 2:20:19Speaker 16: the advice of my attorneys, I will invoke my right
- 2:20:23Speaker 16: under the Fifth Amendment of the Constitution to refrain from
- 2:20:28Speaker 16: answering your questions.
- 2:20:29Speaker 1: Thank you. That made no sense. If he had respect
- 2:20:32Speaker 1: for Senate, he would answer the questions.
- 2:20:34Speaker 3: Right out of the Godfather Michael Corleone. There one of
- 2:20:37Speaker 3: the most famous movie scenes of all time, Congressional hearing
- 2:20:40Speaker 3: into organized crime under the advice of Tom Hagen, remember
- 2:20:44Speaker 3: his peacetime Concheglieri. He said, I'm taking the Fifth Amendment.
- 2:20:49Speaker 3: I don't want to self incriminate myself, or words to
- 2:20:52Speaker 3: that effect. It's like, here we have one thug, Michael Corleon,
- 2:20:57Speaker 3: and now we have Fauci, who has turned out to
- 2:21:00Speaker 3: be a total thug.
- 2:21:01Speaker 1: He knows it's over. You can see it on his face.
- 2:21:04Speaker 1: And let's get some talkbacks to find out how you
- 2:21:06Speaker 1: feel about these hearings.
- 2:21:08Speaker 33: Doctor Fauci should be stripped of all of his degrees.
- 2:21:14Speaker 33: Regis High School in New York City must be totally
- 2:21:17Speaker 33: ashamed of him. He should learn from his Catholic upbringing,
- 2:21:23Speaker 33: tell the truth and shame the devil, especially now that
- 2:21:27Speaker 33: there's no consequences to his lies.
- 2:21:30Speaker 1: Just tell us get it off here, unless there are
- 2:21:33Speaker 1: some things we don't know about that he's trying to hide.
- 2:21:38Speaker 1: This man, this piece of garbage.
- 2:21:42Speaker 3: Fauci should be publicly executed for the crimes that he committed.
- 2:21:50Speaker 9: It was a huge experiment, including.
- 2:21:53Speaker 2: Everybody in the world, and he may not have paid
- 2:21:57Speaker 2: for the gain of function out of his own pocket,
- 2:21:59Speaker 2: but he certainly organized it and did it in the
- 2:22:02Speaker 2: country where they wouldn't care.
- 2:22:05Speaker 1: Disgusting. Well, you're right, mass murder is punishable with the
- 2:22:10Speaker 1: death penalty. And if he did what we all believe
- 2:22:14Speaker 1: he did and what some evidence has shown he's done,
- 2:22:18Speaker 1: that's not far fetched.
- 2:22:19Speaker 20: Okay, So Fauci is going to take the fifth on everything,
- 2:22:23Speaker 20: So next brand Paul should bring in under subpoena doctor
- 2:22:27Speaker 20: Deborah Burks, aka the scoff Queen, and have her testify
- 2:22:32Speaker 20: on everything she knows about COVID and everything she knows
- 2:22:35Speaker 20: about doctor Fauci Curtis.
- 2:22:37Speaker 1: We have a lot to talk about tomorrow.
- 2:22:39Speaker 3: Let me tell you that was a brilliant suggestion there,
- 2:22:42Speaker 3: because they would like two peas in a pod.
- 2:22:44Speaker 1: Yep.
- 2:22:45Speaker 3: Remember they would both be side by side with President
- 2:22:48Speaker 3: Donald Trump, and they were in constant consultation with one another.
- 2:22:55Speaker 3: She would know the specificity and is she going to
- 2:22:58Speaker 3: also take the fifth? She doesn't have a pardon, but
- 2:23:02Speaker 3: I think for the purposes of clearing the air, she
- 2:23:05Speaker 3: can be somebody who can sort of connect some of
- 2:23:08Speaker 3: these dots.
- 2:23:09Speaker 1: You're absolutely right. It would be wonderful if she talked
- 2:23:12Speaker 1: to or anybody. He had other people in his hemisphere
- 2:23:17Speaker 1: that were advising him and talked to him and knew
- 2:23:20Speaker 1: what his orders were, and so they could testify as well.
- 2:23:25Speaker 1: You're right, you're on the right track on this. That
- 2:23:27Speaker 1: there's a whole lot of people in Fauci's world that
- 2:23:31Speaker 1: could be called after this. I don't know what he
- 2:23:35Speaker 1: was thinking or what his lawyers were thinking, unless he
- 2:23:38Speaker 1: is culpable of something because this just made him loose.
- 2:23:42Speaker 1: Where you heard the talkbacks, everybody now thinks he's guilty.
- 2:23:44Speaker 3: He fell from grace and he will not be extended
- 2:23:48Speaker 3: grace because in his final judgment day as the good
- 2:23:51Speaker 3: Catholic boy he says he was in growing up that
- 2:23:54Speaker 3: woman mentioned regis the most prestigious Jesuit high school in
- 2:23:58Speaker 3: the country. He know is a dark place in hell
- 2:24:02Speaker 3: for him, and an ASPECTI suit will not keep him
- 2:24:06Speaker 3: from the fires in the flames anyway. At this point
- 2:24:12Speaker 3: that dramatic, historic morning that we've just experienced by going
- 2:24:17Speaker 3: in and out of the testimony on the hill, Ran
- 2:24:20Speaker 3: Pole deserves all credit for that, and Fauci has invoked
- 2:24:24Speaker 3: the fifth time and time again the talkback of the
- 2:24:26Speaker 3: morning and winner of the courtious lee when Larry Mente
- 2:24:29Speaker 3: in the morning T Shirt had some strong words to
- 2:24:32Speaker 3: say about that.
- 2:24:33Speaker 9: Yeah, this piece lanimous, little punk Fauci. He really honestly
- 2:24:39Speaker 9: makes me sick. You know how the left likes to
- 2:24:42Speaker 9: liken Trump to Hitler every other day it's Hitler Hitler Hitler. Well,
- 2:24:48Speaker 9: two can play that game. I see Fauci as the
- 2:24:51Speaker 9: modern day Joseph Mengela.
- 2:24:53Speaker 1: Oh good call, and remember yeah, that was good.
- 2:24:56Speaker 3: The talkback of the week will win a Seacrane Radio seat.
