  Speaker 1: We'll get to that crazy mom, Donnie becoming mister nightlife.
• 0:03
  Speaker 1: We'll get to Mikey Cheryl New Jersey, all the voter fraud.
• 0:08
  Speaker 1: There is a bunch of it. And guess who was
• 0:10
  Speaker 1: back in the twenty twenty eight race. Well, we'll get
• 0:13
  Speaker 1: to that coming up. Now. Mayor's traditionally go out at night.
• 0:20
  Speaker 1: Let's review Eric Adams. Well, he was always out. He
• 0:25
  Speaker 1: loved Nobu. He would be eating there a lot. He
• 0:27
  Speaker 1: would be at the biblic A, he would be downtown
• 0:31
  Speaker 1: at the Bond forty five, Cassa, Cipriani. This guy was
• 0:34
  Speaker 1: out at all the top restaurants and he was He
• 0:37
  Speaker 1: fit right in. You know, he's a well dressed, sharp
• 0:40
  Speaker 1: looking guy, and he did have a lot of personality,
• 0:43
  Speaker 1: so it made sense. Before that it was Bill de Blasio. Well,
• 0:48
  Speaker 1: he never went out it, not really. He'd go to
• 0:51
  Speaker 1: that cafe every day in Brooklyn, that coffee place, that cafe,
• 0:56
  Speaker 1: and he'd hang out there, go to a gym there.
• 0:58
  Speaker 1: He didn't do much work, and he'd show up at
• 1:01
  Speaker 1: City Hall later in the afternoon for an hour, fall
• 1:03
  Speaker 1: asleep on the couch, and then go home. So he
• 1:06
  Speaker 1: wasn't much. He wasn't much for going out. He would
• 1:08
  Speaker 1: just go to back home to Gracy Mansion and smell
• 1:13
  Speaker 1: this stuff in the air coming out of Gracy Mansion.
• 1:17
  Speaker 1: There was always this herbal odor coming out of there.
• 1:21
  Speaker 1: Before Deblasio, I'm blanking. Oh it was Bloomberg, of course,
• 1:27
  Speaker 1: wasn't it Bloomberg? And then yeah, he was out all
• 1:29
  Speaker 1: the time, a lot of restaurants and go to parties
• 1:33
  Speaker 1: every night. Before Bloomberg, it was Rudy Giuliani. He went
• 1:37
  Speaker 1: out all the time. Loved Jim mcmullins. Remember that place
• 1:40
  Speaker 1: on the Upper east Side, Tony Anapoli was there, a lot,
• 1:44
  Speaker 1: a lot of Italian restaurants. He was always out. And
• 1:47
  Speaker 1: then before that David Dinkins, Yeah, he went out a
• 1:50
  Speaker 1: lot at night. You had Ed Cotch. Ed Kotch was
• 1:53
  Speaker 1: out every night. Loved those Chinese restaurants. All of every
• 1:59
  Speaker 1: Chinese restaurant, Ed Coach was there, and he goes still
• 2:03
  Speaker 1: to this day. You go to any Chinese restaurant on
• 2:05
  Speaker 1: the Upper east Side and they got the celebrity pictures.
• 2:08
  Speaker 1: There's always a picture of the owner with Ed Kotch.
• 2:12
  Speaker 1: And then later on he revealed a secret code that
• 2:16
  Speaker 1: he had put in the pictures, and he said, if
• 2:20
  Speaker 1: I'm smiling in the picture, it means it's a great restaurant.
• 2:23
  Speaker 1: If I'm not smiling, it means the restaurant stinks. So
• 2:26
  Speaker 1: every owner had a rush over and find their picture,
• 2:29
  Speaker 1: and if it was one of the ones where he's
• 2:30
  Speaker 1: not smiling, they had to go hide it. So every
• 2:33
  Speaker 1: mayor went up. But mom, Donnie the socialist, the communist socialists.
• 2:38
  Speaker 1: You wouldn't expect him to start doing this, but all
• 2:40
  Speaker 1: of a sudden he starts showing up at Upper east
• 2:43
  Speaker 1: Side hotspots. He was at Lungi, which is very popular
• 2:47
  Speaker 1: on the Upper east Side, not just Manhattan, but Brooklyn hotspots.
• 2:53
  Speaker 1: And then this weekend he shows up for dinner at
• 2:58
  Speaker 1: Baltazar now Beltas is Downtown. It's one of the big
• 3:03
  Speaker 1: hotspot restaurants that kind of launched the whole downtown scene.
• 3:07
  Speaker 1: It's owned by Keith McNally. This is a restaurant guy,
• 3:11
  Speaker 1: crazy left wing guy, but this is a restaurant guy
• 3:14
  Speaker 1: who owns a lot of the downtown village downtown hotspots.
• 3:19
  Speaker 1: Soho he owns Minetta Tavern, pastis mirandy, but Baltasar is
• 3:24
  Speaker 1: like the original. I mean, you know, Carrie Bradshaw, those
• 3:28
  Speaker 1: sects in the seas, a lot of Baltasar in there.
• 3:31
  Speaker 1: You wouldn't expect mom Donnie at a place like that.
• 3:34
  Speaker 1: I mean, it's kind of a chic, hip downtown place,
• 3:36
  Speaker 1: but there he was Saturday night with his entire family,
• 3:40
  Speaker 1: and it's the downtown crowd. So listen to this. As
• 3:45
  Speaker 1: he left, the entire restaurant burst into applause. The entire restaurant.
• 3:55
  Speaker 1: They love him. So now you look at this mamdannie,
• 3:58
  Speaker 1: all you see is a crazy radical sost communist. They
• 4:02
  Speaker 1: just see a hero. And Keith McNally, who owns these places,
• 4:06
  Speaker 1: he's got quite an Instagram. A lot of people love
• 4:09
  Speaker 1: reading his Instagram, but he's a left wing kook. McNally
• 4:12
  Speaker 1: on his Instagram writes about this. McNally said, I've lived
• 4:16
  Speaker 1: in New York for fifty years, Mam Donnie's definitely the
• 4:19
  Speaker 1: best mayor I've seen here. You could have this guy
• 4:24
  Speaker 1: committed on this sentence, but he believed the city has
• 4:27
  Speaker 1: never felt safer or more vibrant. So you're gonna have
• 4:32
  Speaker 1: to deal with this. These left wing kooks really believe this.
• 4:35
  Speaker 1: There's another one who I won't mention, but Big left winger.
• 4:40
  Speaker 1: Big owns a lot of big stuff in New York,
• 4:43
  Speaker 1: and he said to me, mom, Donnie has accomplished more
• 4:47
  Speaker 1: in six months than most mayors in six years. What
• 4:49
  Speaker 1: he's gotten done is unbrewned. Now you might be saying,
• 4:52
  Speaker 1: what the hell did he get done? What did he
• 4:55
  Speaker 1: do well? Uh? Is he in in the left democratic,
• 5:01
  Speaker 1: left wing crazy world. It's all symbolism and it's all ideas.
• 5:08
  Speaker 1: It's not anything real. So you know, like he talked
• 5:11
  Speaker 1: about balancing the budget, Neil Yell, it's unbelievable. He balanced
• 5:15
  Speaker 1: the budget. No, he didn't. He didn't balance it at all.
• 5:18
  Speaker 1: It was like a fourteen billion dollar deficit and it
• 5:22
  Speaker 1: couldn't balance it. So he delayed the pension payments for
• 5:26
  Speaker 1: a couple of years, and Hulkal had a scramble and
• 5:30
  Speaker 1: lend them twelve billion. That's not balancing the budget. That's
• 5:34
  Speaker 1: just creating more debt. You're increasing the debt, putting off
• 5:37
  Speaker 1: the budget gap for you. So you didn't balance anything.
• 5:41
  Speaker 1: I mean, it's absolutely crazy, but they believe it. And
• 5:44
  Speaker 1: he makes these great TikTok videos, you know, like he'll
• 5:48
  Speaker 1: walk by some housing thing and tell you what he's
• 5:51
  Speaker 1: going to do with housing, and they look at this
• 5:53
  Speaker 1: videos if ooh, look what he did. This is like
• 5:56
  Speaker 1: an accomplishment. He didn't actually do anything. As he pointed
• 5:59
  Speaker 1: out last, he's the biggest slum lord in New York.
• 6:02
  Speaker 1: His housing, the Nightscha housing are the worst in New York.
• 6:07
  Speaker 1: They're just slums. He's a slum lord. But he makes
• 6:11
  Speaker 1: great videos and they fall for this TikTok stuff. They
• 6:14
  Speaker 1: believe it. So whatever he do. You know, you know
• 6:17
  Speaker 1: he put up the video about the millionaire's tax and
• 6:20
  Speaker 1: this tax and that tax. Well he didn't get it.
• 6:22
  Speaker 1: The legislator and give it to him, but he's got
• 6:24
  Speaker 1: the video, so it's close enough. And that's why you
• 6:27
  Speaker 1: get this is Keith McNally, a major business owner in
• 6:30
  Speaker 1: New York, owns all the top downtown restaurants. I've lived
• 6:33
  Speaker 1: in New York for fifty years. Mom, Donnie's definitely the
• 6:36
  Speaker 1: best mayor I've seen here. The city has never felt
• 6:39
  Speaker 1: safer or more vibrant. You're just gonna have to understand
• 6:43
  Speaker 1: these people. It's all about symbolism ideas. You say the
• 6:47
  Speaker 1: right things, you do the right things. It's like AOC
• 6:50
  Speaker 1: never accomplished the damn thing. But she says all the
• 6:53
  Speaker 1: right stuff. It's like Alcaiad. I mean, you look at
• 6:56
  Speaker 1: his resume. You'd never hire a guy like this. But
• 6:59
  Speaker 1: if he's says what you want to hear close enough,
• 7:03
  Speaker 1: you know you get President Trump. You can yell and
• 7:04
  Speaker 1: scream about talks too much, the ego of this, but
• 7:08
  Speaker 1: he gets a lot done. He gets a lot of
• 7:09
  Speaker 1: things done. Every president for forty five years been talking
• 7:13
  Speaker 1: about ending a Rand's nuclear program, doing something. But he's
• 7:16
  Speaker 1: the first guy that actually did anything, even those smaller
• 7:19
  Speaker 1: things like you know, this mining stuff. Over the last
• 7:23
  Speaker 1: few decades, we've given away our manufacturing capacity, our mining capacity,
• 7:30
  Speaker 1: so everything is in China or Asia or someplace else.
• 7:33
  Speaker 1: That's where all the manufacturing is. That's where all the
• 7:35
  Speaker 1: mining is now. All that mining, you need those minerals
• 7:39
  Speaker 1: to make chips, to make medicine, to make all sorts
• 7:41
  Speaker 1: of stuff. It's crucial to our survival. Obviously manufacturing, we
• 7:46
  Speaker 1: need to make weapons. We need to make all sorts
• 7:47
  Speaker 1: of stuff. To give that all away, we need to
• 7:50
  Speaker 1: make our own computers, phones, everything. Medicine crucial, all that
• 7:54
  Speaker 1: medicine you take every month, or the life saving medicine,
• 7:57
  Speaker 1: it's all made overseas. What if they cut us off.
• 8:01
  Speaker 1: So that's a security issue. So President Trump has brought
• 8:04
  Speaker 1: a lot of manufacturing back and more is coming back
• 8:08
  Speaker 1: at a quick pace. So we'll have full manufacturing capacity
• 8:11
  Speaker 1: thanks to him in a couple of years. And he's
• 8:13
  Speaker 1: also bringing back the minerals and the mining. This is
• 8:16
  Speaker 1: crucial that got this done.
• 8:20
  Speaker 2: We're putting our miners back to work, and we're reclaiming
• 8:24
  Speaker 2: America's rightful place as the minerals superpower of the world,
• 8:28
  Speaker 2: which is what we are. People just didn't know that
• 8:30
  Speaker 2: for a while.
• 8:31
  Speaker 1: Yeah, very very important. Those minerals are crucial. Critical.
• 8:35
  Speaker 2: Minerals are the raw materials of American strength that power
• 8:39
  Speaker 2: everything from advanced weaponry to automobiles. And we want these
• 8:43
  Speaker 2: essential products to be mined, refined, and made right here
• 8:47
  Speaker 2: in the USA.
• 8:48
  Speaker 1: Yeah, he's just getting a lot of stuff done now.
• 8:53
  Speaker 1: Some people will yell, but always talking about the ballroom
• 8:57
  Speaker 1: at first all, he's not always talking about the ballroom,
• 8:59
  Speaker 1: second of all, And Democrats the ballroom's important just because
• 9:03
  Speaker 1: it riles up Democrats, just because it makes them nuts
• 9:07
  Speaker 1: and they're yelling and screaming in Washington. But you know,
• 9:10
  Speaker 1: he tore down the east wing, and then the courts
• 9:13
  Speaker 1: jumped in and stopped him from building the ballroom. You
• 9:15
  Speaker 1: probably would have seen the ballroom by now, but they
• 9:17
  Speaker 1: stopped him. But as soon as he got the idea
• 9:20
  Speaker 1: and all that, he sent the all those cranes and machines,
• 9:24
  Speaker 1: and they destroyed the east wing, they gutted it, and
• 9:27
  Speaker 1: now it's like an empty field. So they're up in arms,
• 9:31
  Speaker 1: these democrats in Congress, how dare he tear down these
• 9:35
  Speaker 1: because they don't realize he's like a guy from the
• 9:37
  Speaker 1: private sector, an action guy. You know, in government, you
• 9:40
  Speaker 1: talk about something for ten years, you talk about a ballroom,
• 9:45
  Speaker 1: you put together ballroom study, then you have a ballroom committee,
• 9:48
  Speaker 1: and then a ballroom council, and then you debated for
• 9:51
  Speaker 1: fifteen You never get anything done. But if you're a
• 9:53
  Speaker 1: builder from the private sector and you want to do it,
• 9:56
  Speaker 1: the next day, the bulldozers are there and you're tearing
• 9:58
  Speaker 1: down the big you're getting ready to go, and you
• 10:00
  Speaker 1: look at him tearing down the east he said, oh
• 10:02
  Speaker 1: my god, what did he What a big This guy
• 10:05
  Speaker 1: does this every day. It's nothing for him. You know,
• 10:07
  Speaker 1: if you want to remodel your bathroom, you know you're
• 10:11
  Speaker 1: terrified of what you're going to go through. Oh my god,
• 10:13
  Speaker 1: I'm gonna go through hell. They're going to be busting
• 10:16
  Speaker 1: up wall. It's going to be hell for now. If
• 10:18
  Speaker 1: you're a builder and you do this stuff every day,
• 10:21
  Speaker 1: as he said, you know, normally hear all these cranes
• 10:23
  Speaker 1: and bulldozers construction noise. It's horrifying. He said to him,
• 10:27
  Speaker 1: it's music. He loves hearing it every year. It's what
• 10:29
  Speaker 1: he does for a living. But they're all up in
• 10:32
  Speaker 1: arms about that ballroom. Congress debating and that we will
• 10:36
  Speaker 1: never give a presidential approval for the Arc de Triumph,
• 10:41
  Speaker 1: for the East Wing ball room, and these are vanity project,
• 10:44
  Speaker 1: vanity projects. He wants to build a beautiful arch in Washington, DC,
• 10:49
  Speaker 1: like the one in Paris, one to celebrate our American
• 10:52
  Speaker 1: war heroes and all that. A beautiful arch. It's a
• 10:56
  Speaker 1: vanity project. It's not for him. It's going to be
• 10:59
  Speaker 1: there forever. In fact, the ballroom because of all the
• 11:02
  Speaker 1: delays with the court case, he'll probably never get to
• 11:04
  Speaker 1: use it. It'll be for future president. It's not for him.
• 11:06
  Speaker 1: It's for future presidents. The reason for the ballroom is simple.
• 11:11
  Speaker 1: We don't have any facility when we throw a big
• 11:14
  Speaker 1: state dinner. You know, when you remember the pictures when
• 11:16
  Speaker 1: he went over to Prince Charles now King Charles, to
• 11:19
  Speaker 1: his dinner, it was in the most unbelievable grand room,
• 11:24
  Speaker 1: the most palatial room you've ever seen, Like a thousand
• 11:27
  Speaker 1: people in that room. And you go to Paris they
• 11:29
  Speaker 1: have it in a palace. They have the most unbelievable
• 11:32
  Speaker 1: Then the world leaders come to the White House for
• 11:35
  Speaker 1: a state dinner. Now you could do it in the
• 11:37
  Speaker 1: East Room, but it's too tiny. It's like one hundred people.
• 11:39
  Speaker 1: So when it's a big state dinner, they have to
• 11:41
  Speaker 1: do it out on the White House lawn in a tent.
• 11:45
  Speaker 1: So you're world leader, you're in a tent standing on grass.
• 11:51
  Speaker 1: It's kind of cheesy for a big state dinner with
• 11:54
  Speaker 1: world leaders, big European leaders. I mean, it's like being
• 11:58
  Speaker 1: in a tent at a our MITZVN somebody's backyard in
• 12:01
  Speaker 1: Long Island. So that's why the ballroom could hold like
• 12:04
  Speaker 1: a thousand people. It would be magnificent. And then he's
• 12:08
  Speaker 1: putting in all kinds of things, like as long as
• 12:10
  Speaker 1: they're tearing up the ground underneath, they'll put a whole
• 12:12
  Speaker 1: new presidential bunker, security bunker, state of the art, situation room,
• 12:18
  Speaker 1: all that stuff, and it's going to have a roof.
• 12:20
  Speaker 1: So they're making that like a drone center that'll have
• 12:23
  Speaker 1: all kinds of defensive drones up there. It'll be an
• 12:25
  Speaker 1: incredible thing. But Congress, they're doing everything to stop it.
• 12:29
  Speaker 2: Number One, the presidents raised a lot of private money
• 12:32
  Speaker 2: to fund it, and that's going to be something that
• 12:34
  Speaker 2: future administrations can use, whether they're Republican or Democrat.
• 12:38
  Speaker 1: That's a benefit. They don't care. They don't care, they're
• 12:42
  Speaker 1: trying to stop it. I mean, the security will be
• 12:45
  Speaker 1: much better there than, for example, of the ballroom with
• 12:49
  Speaker 1: the Washington hilped That's another point. You know, anytime you
• 12:53
  Speaker 1: need to do an event and you got to go
• 12:55
  Speaker 1: to a public place, you know, at least the White
• 12:57
  Speaker 1: House grounds totally completely secure. So hey, New Jersey finally
• 13:03
  Speaker 1: had to confess that there's some voter fraud going on there.
• 13:06
  Speaker 1: They're claiming, oh, it's only six thousand or whatever, but
• 13:09
  Speaker 1: it's voter fraud. And I think why would they suddenly
• 13:13
  Speaker 1: confess to that? And I think it's because the federal
• 13:16
  Speaker 1: government was on the way or investigators were looking into it.
• 13:19
  Speaker 1: So Mikey Cheryl, the governor, admitted to six thousand. So
• 13:23
  Speaker 1: figure it's sixty thousand or six hundred thousand, and now
• 13:26
  Speaker 1: they're changing their tune a little.
• 13:28
  Speaker 3: Frankly, it's unacceptable. I just I can't imagine why we
• 13:35
  Speaker 3: are just finding out about this now it, you know,
• 13:39
  Speaker 3: and why nothing was done to remove these voters from
• 13:41
  Speaker 3: the roles. It's again, it's it's kind of mind boggling.
• 13:44
  Speaker 1: You can't figure it. Why why it just came up
• 13:46
  Speaker 1: because you were forced to go and admit to it.
• 13:48
  Speaker 1: You were forced to show it. So now they've got
• 13:51
  Speaker 1: to pretend they're against voter fraud. Now they got to pretend. Well, okay,
• 13:55
  Speaker 1: I guess we could have voter IDs.
• 13:57
  Speaker 3: Certainly if that was the law passed year, I would
• 14:00
  Speaker 3: support that. I don't have a problem with voter ID.
• 14:03
  Speaker 1: Yeah, two weeks ago, you did two weeks ago. It
• 14:05
  Speaker 1: was racist, it was sexist, it was this. It was that,
• 14:09
  Speaker 1: you know, go go to Mikey Cheryl's office, you got
• 14:11
  Speaker 1: to show voter ID in like photo ID. You got
• 14:14
  Speaker 1: to show it in like twelve places just to get
• 14:16
  Speaker 1: into into her office, into that building. So everywhere you
• 14:21
  Speaker 1: can't come into this building without a photo ID. You
• 14:24
  Speaker 1: can't go to MSNBC without a photo ID. You need
• 14:27
  Speaker 1: the photo ID to get into the CNN building. It
• 14:29
  Speaker 1: goes on everywhere all the time. Hey, we'll take some calls. Next.
• 14:34
  Speaker 1: Eight hundred three two one zero seven ten is the number. Hey.
• 14:39
  Speaker 1: By the way, if you're just joining us this hour,
• 14:43
