  Speaker 1: Right now the Mark Simone Show on seven tenor filling
• 0:05
  Speaker 1: in for Mark, here's Ken Rosatto.
• 0:09
  Speaker 2: Well, finally the end of the week is here. Mark
• 0:12
  Speaker 2: is off on a long holiday weekend. Former New York
• 0:15
  Speaker 2: City TV news anchor Ken Rosanna reporting for duty. Are
• 0:18
  Speaker 2: y'all set for a Memorial Day? And by the way,
• 0:21
  Speaker 2: quick lesson on Memorial Day. It was nice to hear
• 0:24
  Speaker 2: folks talking about it with Larry Mente. Now a few
• 0:27
  Speaker 2: minutes ago, Memorial Day has the word memory in it, Okay,
• 0:32
  Speaker 2: So it is not Veterans Day, although we could still
• 0:34
  Speaker 2: say thank you to a veteran. Of course, you could
• 0:36
  Speaker 2: say thank you to a veteran every day. But Memorial
• 0:39
  Speaker 2: Day is the time that we remember the people who
• 0:42
  Speaker 2: died fighting to protect our country. So I'm glad we
• 0:46
  Speaker 2: had callers a few minutes ago saying you shouldn't say
• 0:49
  Speaker 2: happy Memorial Day. Yeah. For young people who want to
• 0:53
  Speaker 2: enjoy the beach or whatever, and the fact that you
• 0:55
  Speaker 2: might be getting together with family, that's good, that's happy.
• 0:58
  Speaker 2: But it's not a day that's about happy. It's today
• 1:02
  Speaker 2: that it's about memorializing. We're supposed to remember those give
• 1:06
  Speaker 2: a moment, just a moment, of your day to think
• 1:10
  Speaker 2: about those people who made the ultimate sacrifice and how
• 1:13
  Speaker 2: significant that is, how many of us would be willing
• 1:17
  Speaker 2: to step up and say, you know what, take my
• 1:19
  Speaker 2: life so that those one hundred thousand people over there
• 1:21
  Speaker 2: can live. That's a tough one, right, but people did
• 1:24
  Speaker 2: that by the hundreds of thousands through our history. So
• 1:28
  Speaker 2: all we ask, right as Americans, fellow Americans, no matter
• 1:31
  Speaker 2: what your politics, no matter what your religion, no matter
• 1:33
  Speaker 2: what your heritage, originally you're an American, just take a
• 1:37
  Speaker 2: moment this Monday and over the weekend and technically every
• 1:40
  Speaker 2: day we should, but this one day specifically, and just
• 1:43
  Speaker 2: remember the good folks who sacrificed ultimately their lives, the
• 1:48
  Speaker 2: families left behind who lost their loved when their father,
• 1:51
  Speaker 2: their brother, their sister, their mother, so that our America
• 1:55
  Speaker 2: could be free. And again, like I said, always think
• 1:58
  Speaker 2: of that the living vet is the person who survives
• 2:02
  Speaker 2: in place of that person who passed, whom we remember
• 2:05
  Speaker 2: Memorial Day four. But I just think that it's so
• 2:08
  Speaker 2: important that we take that time, and that's why I'm
• 2:10
  Speaker 2: glad we have at least one day. We should have
• 2:12
  Speaker 2: many more, but that one day to remember those good folks,
• 2:16
  Speaker 2: who may the ultimate sacrifice for us. We got so
• 2:19
  Speaker 2: much to talk about today. To wrap up the busy
• 2:21
  Speaker 2: news week. The phone lines are open. We would love
• 2:24
  Speaker 2: for you to give us a call and take part
• 2:25
  Speaker 2: in the conversation. The number is eight hundred three two
• 2:28
  Speaker 2: one zero seven ten, eight hundred three to two one
• 2:31
  Speaker 2: zero seven ten. Again, it's Ken Rosatto and for Mark
• 2:34
  Speaker 2: Simone today, by the way, the great Jim Kerr yesterday,
• 2:38
  Speaker 2: Good lord? Is that man. I always used to say
• 2:42
  Speaker 2: when I grow up, I want to sound like Jim
• 2:43
  Speaker 2: Kerr or like the great Mark Simone, two of the
• 2:46
  Speaker 2: greatest voices in the business. And to hear that booming
• 2:50
  Speaker 2: voice come through the very microphone I'm sitting in front
• 2:53
  Speaker 2: of right now, I feel like saying I'm not worthy.
• 2:55
  Speaker 2: I'm not worthy. And one of the people that Jim
• 2:58
  Speaker 2: Kerr said us by hello to is the man sitting
• 3:02
  Speaker 2: opposite me right now. Is he who handles the board
• 3:06
  Speaker 2: and the technicals on the show. We just want to
• 3:08
  Speaker 2: say yes, special, thank you, and good morning to is he.
• 3:12
  Speaker 2: It's good to be with you today, is and good
• 3:14
  Speaker 2: to be with you, folks. The best audience for any
• 3:16
  Speaker 2: talk show in America, right here at seven ten. Wr Well,
• 3:21
  Speaker 2: I don't if you heard this morning the news. US
• 3:22
  Speaker 2: Secretary of State Marco Rubio says there's been a little
• 3:26
  Speaker 2: bit of progress in talks with Iran to end the war,
• 3:29
  Speaker 2: adding that he did not wish to exaggerate how much progress.
• 3:34
  Speaker 2: But apparently this is the few days where it's going
• 3:38
  Speaker 2: to be do or die, so to say, for Iran.
• 3:40
  Speaker 2: I know we've heard that before, but apparently there's a
• 3:42
  Speaker 2: lot of internal data that says that, yeah, this really
• 3:45
  Speaker 2: is it right now. So Iran either has to get
• 3:48
  Speaker 2: it together or there's going to be some action in
• 3:51
  Speaker 2: the next few days. So we'll keep our eyes on that.
• 3:53
  Speaker 2: Of course, we'll keep your breast and see what happens
• 3:55
  Speaker 2: with that. Other news. Check this out. This is from
• 3:59
  Speaker 2: the scratch your head and what on earth? A Maryland
• 4:03
  Speaker 2: teenager is facing child neglect charges for allegedly leaving her
• 4:09
  Speaker 2: six month old baby home alone so she could go
• 4:13
  Speaker 2: out and party with her friends at McDonald's. Okay, now
• 4:16
  Speaker 2: it gets worse. The report says, nineteen year old Kira
• 4:20
  Speaker 2: Faust is a daycare worker. Uh huh, so she watches
• 4:26
  Speaker 2: your kids by day. She left her own six month
• 4:29
  Speaker 2: old baby home alone so she could go out and
• 4:33
  Speaker 2: hang out with her friends at McDonald's. So it's not
• 4:36
  Speaker 2: that she doesn't know how to take care of kids,
• 4:37
  Speaker 2: apparently because she takes care of other people's kids for money,
• 4:41
  Speaker 2: I guess, but when it comes to taking care of
• 4:42
  Speaker 2: her own child, that doesn't matter. Yeah, yes, she will
• 4:46
  Speaker 2: be charged. There was the think old Daria Albinger, the
• 4:50
  Speaker 2: wonderful By the way, I have been admiring the wonderful
• 4:53
  Speaker 2: Daria Albinger's fantastic news voice from Afar for years, and
• 4:58
  Speaker 2: even though our pat's kind to cross, we never got
• 5:01
  Speaker 2: to meet each other face to face. Today we finally did.
• 5:04
  Speaker 2: So it's great to hear her on the greade seven
• 5:06
  Speaker 2: to ten WR doing the news here. She is fantastic.
• 5:10
  Speaker 2: But she just talked about this sinkhole that is on
• 5:12
  Speaker 2: the runway at LaGuardia Airport. Now, LaGuardia has a tough
• 5:15
  Speaker 2: airport to deal with because it's so small. There's no
• 5:17
  Speaker 2: place to stack up planes, so planes come in land,
• 5:20
  Speaker 2: pick up more passengers leave. You can't park anywhere, so
• 5:24
  Speaker 2: when there is a hole a pothole, it's not a pothole,
• 5:27
  Speaker 2: it's a sinkhole on the runway, there's nowhere to keep planes.
• 5:30
  Speaker 2: So when you only have one runway to work with
• 5:33
  Speaker 2: and you can't just, oh, so land on the other runway,
• 5:36
  Speaker 2: well you can't just do that. If the winds are
• 5:38
  Speaker 2: coming from a different direction, you have to use a
• 5:39
  Speaker 2: different airport. So that is a problem. And now the
• 5:43
  Speaker 2: word is it might be tomorrow at the earliest before
• 5:46
  Speaker 2: they'll get that sinkhole repaired. So if you were going
• 5:49
  Speaker 2: to fly out of LaGuardia or pick somebody up at
• 5:51
  Speaker 2: the Guardia, a double check with the carrier to make
• 5:53
  Speaker 2: sure that the plane is still on time. There was
• 5:56
  Speaker 2: an out of control caught on camera brawl that broke
• 6:00
  Speaker 2: out between families over seating at a Catholic school's kindergarten
• 6:07
  Speaker 2: graduation in Ohio yesterday. Now, I used to be a priest,
• 6:12
  Speaker 2: so I want to put that out there so people
• 6:14
  Speaker 2: don't think I've tried to soften this or whatever. But
• 6:18
  Speaker 2: so what had happened was this was a kindergarten graduation, which,
• 6:21
  Speaker 2: by the way, when did we start having kidd I
• 6:23
  Speaker 2: know it sounds cute, the parents say, come on, we
• 6:26
  Speaker 2: have like, oh, second grade graduation. It kind of takes
• 6:30
  Speaker 2: away from what you know, eighth grade or high school
• 6:32
  Speaker 2: or college, but whatever you want the parents to get
• 6:35
  Speaker 2: together and take the pictures, I get it. So a
• 6:37
  Speaker 2: bunch of parents got together for this graduation of a
• 6:40
  Speaker 2: kindergarten and a Catholic school underline that, and apparently this
• 6:45
  Speaker 2: one parent decided to take her extended family to this graduation.
• 6:52
  Speaker 2: And when they showed up at the Queen of Apostles
• 6:54
  Speaker 2: School in Toledo, Ohio, yesterday morning, they brought literally twenty
• 6:59
  Speaker 2: members of the family and they took up all the
• 7:00
  Speaker 2: front row seats. So, of course, everybody wants a picture
• 7:03
  Speaker 2: of their kid, their little kid. That's why they're having this.
• 7:05
  Speaker 2: You're supposed to come in with maybe two three people,
• 7:08
  Speaker 2: not like thirty people for your kindergartener's graduation. Well, twenty
• 7:12
  Speaker 2: eight year old Jessica Anderson allegedly started cursing out parents
• 7:17
  Speaker 2: who tried to take back some of those front seats
• 7:20
  Speaker 2: that she was accused of hogging up. Oh that's another thing.
• 7:23
  Speaker 2: She put bags and whatnot on the seats to prevent
• 7:26
  Speaker 2: people from taking them until like Uncle Gino and Aunt
• 7:29
  Speaker 2: Francis could show up from Oshkosh, Wisconsin, who were driving
• 7:33
  Speaker 2: four hours for a kindergarten graduation. For God's sake, sorry
• 7:38
  Speaker 2: to scream. Didn't mean to scare you, but it is
• 7:41
  Speaker 2: mind boggling. So what ends up happening a brawl? This
• 7:45
  Speaker 2: is a Catholic school, this is a kindergarten graduation, and
• 7:50
  Speaker 2: these parents acted like animals and literally started slugging each other.
• 7:55
  Speaker 2: And yeah, there were a bunch of arrest made. Just unbelievable. Folks,
• 7:59
  Speaker 2: grow up. Not a great example for your kindergarteners to see.
• 8:02
  Speaker 2: Seven ten wr the Voice of New York. We'd love
• 8:06
  Speaker 2: to hear what you have to say. Comment on any
• 8:08
  Speaker 2: of this, tell me about your memorial dy plans, and
• 8:11
  Speaker 2: more importantly, tell me about your plans to remember those
• 8:13
  Speaker 2: who fought and died for a country. Eight hundred three
• 8:16
  Speaker 2: two one zero seven ten. Eight hundred three two one
• 8:21
  Speaker 2: zero seven ten. How many of you have friends who
• 8:24
  Speaker 2: say that you know President Trump his time is up,
• 8:26
  Speaker 2: that he no longer has the influence he once had. Sure,
• 8:30
  Speaker 2: we know those people, right, Maybe it's time you get
• 8:33
  Speaker 2: new friends. I'm kidding. But in a single night, think
• 8:38
  Speaker 2: about the significance of this president. Trump accomplished something in
• 8:42
  Speaker 2: one night that no other president in the forty seven
• 8:46
  Speaker 2: presidents we've had other than him. He's number forty seven.
• 8:49
  Speaker 2: No other president in history has accomplished. He literally went
• 8:53
  Speaker 2: thirty seven for thirty seven. In terms of winning endorsements,
• 8:58
  Speaker 2: Trump endorsed thirty seven individuals in Republican primaries nationwide, in
• 9:03
  Speaker 2: some cases against very popular incumbent Republican Rhinos who had
• 9:07
  Speaker 2: a track record of winning term after term. And in
• 9:11
  Speaker 2: every single case, the individual whom President Trump endorsed beat
• 9:16
  Speaker 2: their primary competitors. Now, that has never been done in history,
• 9:21
  Speaker 2: certainly not to that extent. In fact, CNN data analyst
• 9:25
  Speaker 2: Harry Enton broke it down to the horror of the
• 9:28
  Speaker 2: commies standing around him on set at.
• 9:30
  Speaker 3: CNN when in fact, you go against President Trump, you
• 9:33
  Speaker 3: go on the grinder and you could just see this
• 9:35
  Speaker 3: times Trump endorsees have won in GOP primaries. It's about
• 9:38
  Speaker 3: ninety five percent each of the last four cycles. Now,
• 9:41
  Speaker 3: I will not you know, sometimes he endorsed this and
• 9:43
  Speaker 3: there's no real challenger. But even in those cases, the
• 9:46
  Speaker 3: challengers to the combent have won a majority of the
• 9:49
  Speaker 3: time as well. And one of the key reasons why
• 9:52
  Speaker 3: that is right is you look at Trump's approval rating
• 9:55
  Speaker 3: within the Gopach twenty first century own party approval. At
• 9:58
  Speaker 3: this point in term two, he's still at eighty three percent.
• 10:01
  Speaker 3: That's more popular than Obama was with Democrats, way more
• 10:04
  Speaker 3: popular than George W. Bush was with Republicans back in
• 10:07
  Speaker 3: two thousand and six. So the power of a Trump
• 10:09
  Speaker 3: endorsement is still sky high.
• 10:11
  Speaker 2: So when people say, oh, Obama was the most popular president,
• 10:15
  Speaker 2: he had the most support, No, No, I mean he was. Look,
• 10:18
  Speaker 2: whether you like Obama or hate, I mean he was
• 10:20
  Speaker 2: great in a number of ways. He was a fabulous orator,
• 10:23
  Speaker 2: very persuasive. He brought a lot of independence over to
• 10:27
  Speaker 2: his side who never thought that they would vote to
• 10:31
  Speaker 2: the left. So he was a very powerful man. Yet
• 10:34
  Speaker 2: President Trump has more power right now, especially among Republicans,
• 10:40
  Speaker 2: not quote unquote maggat Street, Missy Republicans, the party overall,
• 10:44
  Speaker 2: it's about eighty seven percent support. That is higher than
• 10:47
  Speaker 2: Obama had among Democrats, higher than George H. I'm sorry
• 10:51
  Speaker 2: George W. Bush had among Republicans in his time, I believe,
• 10:55
  Speaker 2: even higher than Reagan had at this point. It's significant.
• 10:59
  Speaker 2: The only Trump could pull off thirty seven out of
• 11:02
  Speaker 2: thirty seven successful endorsements is with popularity and influence. Now,
• 11:06
  Speaker 2: one guy, think about that single handedly dismantled a political
• 11:10
  Speaker 2: machine built one hundred and sixty five years ago and
• 11:13
  Speaker 2: rebuilt it from scratch. It is now the Party of
• 11:17
  Speaker 2: Trump and the old trimudgeonly machined Rhino Republicans are so
• 11:22
  Speaker 2: angry and so bitter as they watched the party in
• 11:25
  Speaker 2: which they subsisted for years blown to bits. You see,
• 11:30
  Speaker 2: the Rhino Republicans, they were happy being the crappy number
• 11:34
  Speaker 2: two party behind the Democrats because they just wanted to
• 11:37
  Speaker 2: live and let live. They were okay being the second
• 11:40
  Speaker 2: best party as long as they got invited to all
• 11:42
  Speaker 2: the fancy schmancy Washington dinners and they kept their fat
• 11:45
  Speaker 2: jobs and got their palms greased by powerful DC lobbyists
• 11:49
  Speaker 2: in exchange for votes. And yes, it happens. They just
• 11:51
  Speaker 2: wanted to be left alone to live their fat and
• 11:54
  Speaker 2: sassy life, keep their seat election after election, having a
• 11:58
  Speaker 2: career until they died. Like Mitch McConnell, for example. I mean,
• 12:01
  Speaker 2: the man doesn't even know what day it is. And
• 12:05
  Speaker 2: for all the people who were complaining that President Biden
• 12:08
  Speaker 2: needed to leave office because he didn't know where he was,
• 12:11
  Speaker 2: I say those same people need to be saying the
• 12:13
  Speaker 2: same thing about Mitch McConnell, who, if you've seen him lately,
• 12:16
  Speaker 2: he has no idea that he is breathing air yet.
• 12:19
  Speaker 2: I think he's waiting for somebody to tell him he's
• 12:21
  Speaker 2: moved on. And I don't just mean in office. I
• 12:24
  Speaker 2: wish the best for him, Don't get me wrong. I
• 12:26
  Speaker 2: don't wish any ill will. God bless him. He's served
• 12:29
  Speaker 2: a lot of years, but it's time to go on.
• 12:32
  Speaker 4: Now.
• 12:32
  Speaker 2: This is his last year, but I don't see him
• 12:34
  Speaker 2: still serving this term. How he's effective at this point
• 12:37
  Speaker 2: as a senator. Now, the days of the old Rhino Republicans,
• 12:41
  Speaker 2: those days are over. Probably the Canaries and the coal
• 12:44
  Speaker 2: Mine were the incumbent Rhino Thomas Massey and Kentucky who
• 12:48
  Speaker 2: lost in the fourth Congressional district to a relatively unknown
• 12:53
  Speaker 2: ed Gull Ryan, a former Navy seal who had no
• 12:56
  Speaker 2: name recognition before President Trump said I endorse him him.
• 13:01
  Speaker 2: And when President Trump endorsed Gaul Ryan, every know it
• 13:05
  Speaker 2: all political analyst said, he's nuts. Why is he doing that?
• 13:08
  Speaker 2: Gall Ryan doesn't stand a chance. Nobody knew who he was.
• 13:12
  Speaker 2: In fact, in early polls, people said Massey. Ninety nine
• 13:15
  Speaker 2: point two percent said that they would support Massey in
• 13:19
  Speaker 2: the primary, ninety nine point two. And guess who won
• 13:23
  Speaker 2: the primary, gall Ryan by ten points, the guy endorsed
• 13:29
  Speaker 2: by President Trump. Unheard of. That's not a political powerhouse.
• 13:34
  Speaker 2: That's a political gargantuan that has probably never existed in
• 13:39
  Speaker 2: our history of this country before. Eight hundred three to
• 13:42
  Speaker 2: two one zero seven ten, eight hundred three two one
• 13:46
  Speaker 2: zero seven ten. We want to hear from you, so
• 13:48
  Speaker 2: give us call, let you know what you let us
• 13:50
  Speaker 2: know what you think. And then there is George's anti Trump,
• 13:53
  Speaker 2: Republican Secretary of State Brad Raffensberger, who was the darling
• 13:57
  Speaker 2: of the left. He was the guy who defended the
• 13:59
  Speaker 2: election mess in Fulton County, Georgia, and he promised voters
• 14:02
  Speaker 2: that he would continue his anti Trump's stance if elected governor.
• 14:06
  Speaker 2: He's running for governor now, well, guess what Trump endorsed
• 14:09
  Speaker 2: his opposition, A different Republican and incumbent Georgia secretary of
• 14:14
  Speaker 2: state currently running for governor, received just fourteen percent of
• 14:17
  Speaker 2: the primary vote. So Raffensberger, who thought he was a
• 14:20
  Speaker 2: shoeing to be governor, lost, He came in third in
• 14:24
  Speaker 2: the primaries because Trump endorsed somebody else, once again showing
• 14:28
  Speaker 2: the power of Trump unbelievable. So again we want to
• 14:32
  Speaker 2: know what you have to say about this, what's your opinion,
• 14:34
  Speaker 2: what you're feeling. Eight hundred three two one zero seven ten.
• 14:37
  Speaker 2: We're going to take calls in just a few minutes.
• 14:39
  Speaker 2: Eight hundred three two one zero seven ten seven ten WR.
• 14:45
  Speaker 1: This is the Mark Simone Show on seven ten WR.
• 14:49
  Speaker 5: In from Mark Today, here's Ken Rosato.
• 14:53
  Speaker 2: I'd great to have you with us on your Friday
• 14:55
  Speaker 2: of Memorial Day weekend. Again, remember the good folks who
• 14:58
  Speaker 2: fought and die for us. That's what no more real
• 15:00
  Speaker 2: days about. And remember kind of resisting happy Memorial Day instead.
• 15:05
  Speaker 2: I mean, it's fine to say have a good Memorial Day,
• 15:07
  Speaker 2: but happy is not what it's about. It's about remembering
• 15:10
  Speaker 2: those people who died for us. It should be a
• 15:13
  Speaker 2: solemn time. So just remember that. Don't want to bring
• 15:16
  Speaker 2: everybody down, but just kind of remember that because of
• 15:19
  Speaker 2: them we have the freedom and the joy and the
• 15:20
  Speaker 2: abilities that we have today. Eight hundred three to two
• 15:23
  Speaker 2: one zero seven ten. Eight hundred three to two one
• 15:26
  Speaker 2: zero seven ten. Time to go to our busy phones
• 15:28
  Speaker 2: we go to Rob in Franklin Square.
• 15:29
  Speaker 6: Good morning Rob, Good morning to you.
• 15:31
  Speaker 7: Ken.
• 15:32
  Speaker 8: It's nice to hear if we're filling it from walking
• 15:33
  Speaker 8: in the problem I have. I always remember Memorial Day
• 15:39
  Speaker 8: was always on May thirtieth.
• 15:40
  Speaker 7: Right now.
• 15:41
  Speaker 8: I understand with the thing with the three day holidays,
• 15:45
  Speaker 8: but they push it up Monday morning. Why couldn't they
• 15:48
  Speaker 8: Why couldn't Memorial Day be May twenty night, next Friday.
• 15:52
  Speaker 8: You could give people Friday, Saturday, Sunday. If that's what's
• 15:55
  Speaker 8: so important. Now everybody's worried about it's going to be
• 15:58
  Speaker 8: rainy for this weekend. Too bad, right, you know it's
• 16:04
  Speaker 8: not the Memorial Days, not for hot dogs, and you know,
• 16:06
  Speaker 8: I mean, it's not to have family to get togethers.
• 16:08
  Speaker 8: But that's the thing I remember. I think it was
• 16:11
  Speaker 8: about nineteen seventy nine. I was a big Dave Kingman fan.
• 16:14
  Speaker 8: I went down to the VET to see the Cubs
• 16:17
  Speaker 8: and the Phillies play. It was on a Thursday, a
• 16:19
  Speaker 8: beautiful day, May thirtieth. So that's why people today. The
• 16:27
  Speaker 8: person that was on the show before you that when
• 16:29
  Speaker 8: she interviewed the people, there was one min it looked
• 16:31
  Speaker 8: like a mom in the thirties, and she asked, well,
• 16:34
  Speaker 8: what do you think about She says, yeah, well, I know,
• 16:37
  Speaker 8: I'm not sure whether it's about I think it's something
• 16:39
  Speaker 8: about the veterans. That's what's the people all are really interested?
• 16:44
  Speaker 8: Is a three day on holidays?
• 16:45
  Speaker 2: Well, and you know what if I could jump in, run,
• 16:47
  Speaker 2: let me jump in if I may, Rob, please, And
• 16:49
  Speaker 2: that is I think part of it is also on
• 16:52
  Speaker 2: those of us who are broadcasting. You know, all the
• 16:54
  Speaker 2: years I was a Channel seven and this is not
• 16:56
  Speaker 2: This is not to knock Channel seven. This was every
• 16:59
  Speaker 2: broadcast news outlet. You really need to have a kind
• 17:03
  Speaker 2: of revision, not revision, it's what's the word I'm looking for?
• 17:06
  Speaker 2: A reminder. Course it should be incumbent upon the broadcasters
• 17:10
  Speaker 2: to remind people what it's about. That's what it is.
• 17:13
  Speaker 2: We're supposed to be in the public interest, right, We're
• 17:15
  Speaker 2: supposed to be here serving the public. That's part of it.
• 17:18
  Speaker 2: Just remember that this day is for this reason because
• 17:21
  Speaker 2: younger people coming up don't know, and new people who
• 17:23
  Speaker 2: moved here from other countries don't know. And it doesn't
• 17:25
  Speaker 2: hurt to take a segment a second to remind people.
• 17:28
  Speaker 2: But you know what Rob is one hundred percent right,
• 17:29
  Speaker 2: And yes, I do remember when it was the same
• 17:31
  Speaker 2: day every year. Now it feels like sometimes, oh it's
• 17:34
  Speaker 2: a memorial day, it's the second of May. No stop, stop,
• 17:37
  Speaker 2: I get it. But the main job is we should
• 17:40
  Speaker 2: remember those who fought and died. That's the most important thing.
• 17:42
  Speaker 2: Let's go to Joe in Elmwood Park.
• 17:44
  Speaker 9: Good morning, Joe, Good morning you Ken, Good morning Fits,
• 17:47
  Speaker 9: always taking morning Fits. You said we could talk about anything.
• 17:50
  Speaker 9: Where is Jack Tibbarelli. How come he's not? We have
• 17:53
  Speaker 9: this clown here, this mickey whatever her name is. I
• 18:00
  Speaker 9: ain't get over and I don't understand.
• 18:01
  Speaker 4: I know.
• 18:01
  Speaker 2: Look, you know I do a daily show in New
• 18:04
  Speaker 2: Jersey every day and I covered Jack up and down.
• 18:07
  Speaker 2: Jack's a wonderful, wonderful guy. Love Jack to death. Uh,
• 18:11
  Speaker 2: it's just New Jersey's a tough state right now. And
• 18:15
  Speaker 2: if there's any state that that shows the blue underbelly
• 18:19
  Speaker 2: when there's when there's an election and there's something they
• 18:21
  Speaker 2: don't like from the right, it's New Jersey, unfortunately. And
• 18:24
  Speaker 2: and that's the deal. We haven't seen much of Jack,
• 18:26
  Speaker 2: but I think because right now he's probably he's he's
• 18:29
  Speaker 2: feeling it. Uh, he spent a lot of time and money,
• 18:32
  Speaker 2: and I think there were polls that showed he could
• 18:33
  Speaker 2: have pulled it off. But I don't know if I
• 18:37
  Speaker 2: I don't want to sound like a conspiracy theorist, but yeah.
• 18:40
  Speaker 9: You know what I mean, anybody with three brain cells
• 18:42
  Speaker 9: knew that last time Murphy stole it from him. That
• 18:46
  Speaker 9: was obvious. And now we got this clown and people
• 18:49
  Speaker 9: are leaving.
• 18:50
  Speaker 2: Yeah, you know, people say that's just anecdotal. I know
• 18:54
  Speaker 2: four different families who've left New Jersey in the last
• 18:56
  Speaker 2: few months. And by the way, the funniest part, Joe,
• 18:58
  Speaker 2: not all of them are are republic I have some
• 19:00
  Speaker 2: Democrat friends to say they can't afford it anymore, and
• 19:02
  Speaker 2: they went and retired down in Florida too. They can't
• 19:04
  Speaker 2: take it.
• 19:05
  Speaker 9: And what about all the corporations? Standard oil?
• 19:10
  Speaker 2: Standard is shell in or standard I'm sorry, is mobile?
• 19:13
  Speaker 2: So Exon Mobil Remember Exon Mobile started out. Remember they
• 19:17
  Speaker 2: started out as s O Standard Oil, and then it
• 19:21
  Speaker 2: became E S s O s O and then it
• 19:23
  Speaker 2: became Exon and then Mobile, et cetera. So, for those
• 19:26
  Speaker 2: of you that don't realize the history of it, but
• 19:28
  Speaker 2: that was headquartered in New Jersey since its inception. It's gone.
• 19:31
  Speaker 2: But that's what you get when you get liberals in
• 19:34
  Speaker 2: charge who really don't care about the corporations they claim
• 19:36
  Speaker 2: to love because they get all the money from them.
• 19:39
  Speaker 2: That's it, dropping like flies, all right, Joe, thank you
• 19:42
  Speaker 2: so much. Enjoy enjoy family gathering. But let's remember the
• 19:46
  Speaker 2: good folks who fought in die for us. Thank you, Joe.
• 19:49
  Speaker 2: And then we go to Maria in Connecticut. Good morning
• 19:52
  Speaker 2: to you, Good morning to you.
• 19:54
  Speaker 10: I want to tell you before my question. You are
• 19:57
  Speaker 10: a wonderful host for him Kelly, look forward to Mark,
• 20:00
  Speaker 10: and I get disappointed when there's somebody else, but you're
• 20:02
  Speaker 10: really fabulous.
• 20:03
  Speaker 2: Honest, honestly, Marie, if I could, I get disappointed too,
• 20:07
  Speaker 2: even when I'm on, because I listened every No, I'm serious,
• 20:11
  Speaker 2: not that I don't love sitting here, but I've said
• 20:13
  Speaker 2: it over and over again. I'm not a liar. I
• 20:16
  Speaker 2: love the Mark Simon Show. And when I tell you,
• 20:19
  Speaker 2: I listen to this station from nine am on so
• 20:21
  Speaker 2: I catch the end of Curtis and I listened to
• 20:27
  Speaker 2: the Morning Show. Of course, I've listened to the Morning
• 20:29
  Speaker 2: Show Larry and when it was Larry Menty alone, and
• 20:32
  Speaker 2: then Larry and Curtis since they came together. I get
• 20:35
  Speaker 2: the nine to ten hour because that's when I'm done
• 20:36
  Speaker 2: with my show in New Jersey. Then I listen to
• 20:39
  Speaker 2: Mark every day. I text him he must say, this
• 20:41
  Speaker 2: guy's a pain in my neck. I text Mark during
• 20:43
  Speaker 2: the show. I love him so much, but I'm sorry.
• 20:45
  Speaker 2: Please continue, Marc, go ahead.
• 20:47
  Speaker 10: Oh yeah, well, thank you. My question is about John
• 20:51
  Speaker 10: who I don't understand why this is rigging out? Did
• 20:55
  Speaker 10: somebody fire him or the other thing I've heard is
• 20:59
  Speaker 10: that five senators to put something up, a bill or
• 21:03
  Speaker 10: whatever to get rid of him. Why is going on
• 21:07
  Speaker 10: so long? Has the power over like this?
• 21:10
  Speaker 2: Yeah, it's you know the thing? And John Thune, who
• 21:12
  Speaker 2: is the he's the head of the Senate, the Republican
• 21:15
  Speaker 2: in charge if you will, And yeah, there you know
• 21:17
  Speaker 2: what Thune. Everybody who seems to take office in either
• 21:21
  Speaker 2: the House or the Senate and becomes in charge, everyone
• 21:24
  Speaker 2: then starts to say why aren't they doing this? And
• 21:25
  Speaker 2: why aren't they doing that? And apparently so much of
• 21:28
  Speaker 2: it is because it's all about wheeling and dealing, and
• 21:32
  Speaker 2: if you don't have enough senators backing what you want,
• 21:35
  Speaker 2: you can't put your neck out and go on the
• 21:37
  Speaker 2: floor and bring something on the floor, because if you're
• 21:39
  Speaker 2: gonna lose, you lose credibility. And that's that's really what
• 21:42
  Speaker 2: it comes down to, Maria. But I appreciate the call,
• 21:44
  Speaker 2: and I understand what you're saying. But you know, knowing
• 21:47
  Speaker 2: people who've been Congress members, and they've told me that
• 21:49
  Speaker 2: that's why what seems to be obvious for us, why
• 21:51
  Speaker 2: don't they just bring it to for a vote. It's
• 21:53
  Speaker 2: because they know they don't have the support at that moment,
• 21:55
  Speaker 2: And there are one thousand and one reasons why at
• 21:58
  Speaker 2: that moment they don't have support. We'll see we're gonna
• 22:01
  Speaker 2: have a kind of kind of a weekend in terms
• 22:03
  Speaker 2: of weather, but again it's not about the weather. It's
• 22:06
  Speaker 2: about remembering those who died for us. But seven ten
• 22:09
  Speaker 2: War is the voice of New York. Phone lines are
• 22:11
  Speaker 2: still open eight hundred and three two one zero, seven ten,
• 22:14
  Speaker 2: and we are going to have lots more coming up,
• 22:16
  Speaker 2: So don't go away. You're listening to seven ten WR
• 22:20
  Speaker 2: Now the News with Daria Albinger.
• 22:21
  Speaker 5: Good morning, Ken, nice to have you here today. You're sorry.
• 22:25
  Speaker 1: Now more of the Mark Simone Show. On seven ten
• 22:28
  Speaker 1: wor filling.
• 22:30
  Speaker 5: In for Mark. Here again is Ken Rosato.
• 22:33
  Speaker 2: So nice to be with you on a Friday. Remember
• 22:36
  Speaker 2: the special weekend that this is Memorial Day. So remember
• 22:39
  Speaker 2: try not to say the term happy Memorial Day, but
• 22:42
  Speaker 2: you could say have a thoughtful Memorial Day, have a
• 22:45
  Speaker 2: good Memorial Day, but happy. It's not supposed to be
• 22:48
  Speaker 2: about it. To remember the people who died for us.
• 22:51
  Speaker 2: They fought and died for us. But we thank the
• 22:53
  Speaker 2: families who are left behind who had to deal with
• 22:56
  Speaker 2: the loss of their loved ones, and thank you for
• 22:58
  Speaker 2: that ultimate sacrifice. Seven to ten wo R. You're listening
• 23:02
  Speaker 2: to the Mark Simone Show on a Friday morning. Again
• 23:04
  Speaker 2: Ken Risotto from used to be Channel seven for twenty
• 23:07
  Speaker 2: years and I was with Channel five. Good to be
• 23:09
  Speaker 2: filling in for Mark was a nice long weekend.
• 23:12
  Speaker 4: Well.
• 23:12
  Speaker 2: He is a twenty five year Navy veteran who's now
• 23:16
  Speaker 2: running for Congress in southern California's forty ninth congressional district.
• 23:20
  Speaker 2: We say good morning to armand Curty and good to
• 23:22
  Speaker 2: have you on.
• 23:24
  Speaker 4: Good morning, Chris, how y'all doing today?
• 23:26
  Speaker 2: Good? Is Ken Risotto here? And Arman you you are
• 23:29
  Speaker 2: a twenty five year veteran. You are a Navy captain,
• 23:33
  Speaker 2: So thank you, sir for your service. Before I even
• 23:35
  Speaker 2: get into the other questions I was going to ask you,
• 23:37
  Speaker 2: I wanted to see what it was, what Memorial Day
• 23:40
  Speaker 2: means for you having served so many years.
• 23:44
  Speaker 4: Thanks so much for that. You know, did we live?
• 23:47
  Speaker 11: All naval aviators, some dimontored, some that I've worked in
• 23:51
  Speaker 11: other air wings, and several of them gave their lives
• 23:56
  Speaker 11: to their country, and you know in training accidents when
• 23:59
  Speaker 11: they were are working hard to better their skills and
• 24:03
  Speaker 11: keep their keep their skills sharp. It's a very dangerous profession.
• 24:07
  Speaker 11: One of them was my assistant operations officer when I
• 24:10
  Speaker 11: after out my squadron, he was involved in a training accident.
• 24:14
  Speaker 11: So I always go back and think to those individuals
• 24:18
  Speaker 11: that I personally lost. You know, some good friends, good
• 24:23
  Speaker 11: good folks that I know, had beers with and everything,
• 24:25
  Speaker 11: and this it's sad and it's unfortunate. Even one of them,
• 24:28
  Speaker 11: going all the way back to my time in r OTC,
• 24:30
  Speaker 11: so one of the upper classmen and helped train me
• 24:33
  Speaker 11: and become a better officer. So that's that's what I
• 24:37
  Speaker 11: hold in my heart on Memorial Day.
• 24:39
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm glad you pointed that at ARMIN because we
• 24:41
  Speaker 2: tend to say for those who fought and died. I've
• 24:42
  Speaker 2: been saying that, but you're right. Look, if you die
• 24:45
  Speaker 2: in training, you're still giving your life for your country,
• 24:48
  Speaker 2: and your family still has that devastating loss of their
• 24:51
  Speaker 2: loved one. You still died serving the country. So I'm
• 24:55
  Speaker 2: glad you pointed that out. It's very very important if
• 24:58
  Speaker 2: you if you decide sign up, and it's all voluntary,
• 25:02
  Speaker 2: of course, if you decide to sign up and serve
• 25:04
  Speaker 2: the country, you deserve all the honor and thanks of
• 25:08
  Speaker 2: Americans for what you've done.
• 25:09
  Speaker 4: Well.
• 25:10
  Speaker 2: Now, just to shift gears a little bit, we wanted
• 25:12
  Speaker 2: to talk to you about how ninety four year old
• 25:14
  Speaker 2: former Cuban dictator Raoul Castro is charged with conspiracy to
• 25:18
  Speaker 2: kill US nationals, four council murder, destruction of aircraft from
• 25:22
  Speaker 2: a nineteen ninety six shootdown of two unarmed civilian Cessna
• 25:25
  Speaker 2: planes operated by the Miami based exile group Brothers to
• 25:29
  Speaker 2: the Rescue, and of course, Acting Attorney General Todd Blanche
• 25:32
  Speaker 2: announced the charges on Wednesday as a major step toward accountability.
• 25:36
  Speaker 2: Do you think that that was done in order to
• 25:39
  Speaker 2: let the ninety four year old Raul Castro know that
• 25:42
  Speaker 2: he is next to be brought back to the US
• 25:44
  Speaker 2: like they did to Venezuelan dictator Nicolas Maduro.
• 25:48
  Speaker 11: Now this is really really interesting. I mean, I think
• 25:50
  Speaker 11: you just said it. The guy's ninety four years old,
• 25:53
  Speaker 11: he's a you know, I guess he's kind of a symbol,
• 25:55
  Speaker 11: the last living symbol of the Cuban revolution of sixty
• 25:59
  Speaker 11: years years ago. The question is is the president really
• 26:03
  Speaker 11: thinking about going and physically extracting him if they don't
• 26:06
  Speaker 11: turn him over.
• 26:07
  Speaker 4: And that's a very good question.
• 26:09
  Speaker 11: You know, the Cuban military is not as capable as
• 26:12
  Speaker 11: the Venezuelan military is, but Cuba is also ninety miles
• 26:15
  Speaker 11: from from our coast. So you know, if if the
• 26:17
  Speaker 11: President goes in and takes him, is Cuba going to retaliate?
• 26:20
  Speaker 11: Are they going to strike back at us? Knowing that
• 26:22
  Speaker 11: we could go right back at them? Are really hard
• 26:25
  Speaker 11: but perhaps risking the political damage of you know, a
• 26:28
  Speaker 11: few drones striking targets in southern Florida. Who knows this
• 26:33
  Speaker 11: is this is a very interesting situation.
• 26:35
  Speaker 4: He's done.
• 26:36
  Speaker 11: The president has a very different calculus obviously, as we've
• 26:39
  Speaker 11: seen to foreign policy. He breaks all the norms. And
• 26:44
  Speaker 11: I won't say that all the time, but you know,
• 26:47
  Speaker 11: a majority of the time he tends to come out
• 26:50
  Speaker 11: on top with with what he does. So I think
• 26:54
  Speaker 11: a lot remains to be seen as to whether the
• 26:57
  Speaker 11: value of actually doing that is beneficial. Remember, he's not
• 26:59
  Speaker 11: the prison in the country. Well, Duro was a president
• 27:01
  Speaker 11: of Venezuela. This guy's just sort of a figurehead. If
• 27:04
  Speaker 11: you look at the Cuban government, a lot of them
• 27:06
  Speaker 11: are still very very much aligned. I don't know that
• 27:08
  Speaker 11: necessarily moving it was going to change qus behavior, which
• 27:11
  Speaker 11: I think what the president really ultimately wants to see.
• 27:14
  Speaker 2: Yeah, you know, I worked in Miami. I worked for
• 27:17
  Speaker 2: the CBS station there for five years as an anchor,
• 27:20
  Speaker 2: and one of my co anchors was her family's all
• 27:23
  Speaker 2: from Cuba. She was from Cuba. She was born in Cuba,
• 27:25
  Speaker 2: Ileana Varilla, her name is. She was an anchor there
• 27:27
  Speaker 2: for years in Miami, and she said that the biggest
• 27:30
  Speaker 2: enemy of the Cuban people of the Cuban people, that
• 27:33
  Speaker 2: the Cuban people who come to South Florida send back
• 27:36
  Speaker 2: so much American cash to help their relatives back home.
• 27:40
  Speaker 2: That it doesn't allow communism to collapse, because without the
• 27:44
  Speaker 2: cash influx from South Florida, Cuba would have folded thirty
• 27:49
  Speaker 2: forty years ago for lack of money. They don't produce anything,
• 27:53
  Speaker 2: but because the Miami Cubans sends so much over it,
• 27:56
  Speaker 2: because they don't want their loved ones to starve, they
• 27:58
  Speaker 2: send so much money over that has propped up the
• 28:01
  Speaker 2: government and as a result, it still survives and the
• 28:04
  Speaker 2: people have not encountered.
• 28:05
  Speaker 4: Though.
• 28:06
  Speaker 2: Don't get me wrong, it's not like they live high
• 28:07
  Speaker 2: on the Hog Show to say they struggle soup lines
• 28:10
  Speaker 2: and everything else. I have breadlines, I should say. But
• 28:14
  Speaker 2: they would have probably toppled their government many decades ago
• 28:18
  Speaker 2: if not for South Florida helping them out.
• 28:23
  Speaker 11: You bring up a very interesting point, which is what
• 28:25
  Speaker 11: Trump the same type of leverage he was using in Iran.
• 28:30
  Speaker 11: When you squeeze somebody, find it really squeezed someone financially,
• 28:33
  Speaker 11: it causes major, in serious damage, you know, not just
• 28:36
  Speaker 11: regular general sanctions. You know, back in the twenty sixteen
• 28:40
  Speaker 11: twenty seventeen, when he when the President puts those kinds
• 28:42
  Speaker 11: of stantions on Iran, they were unable to fund their
• 28:44
  Speaker 11: proxies to the locals they actually wanted, and that was
• 28:47
  Speaker 11: changed under the Biden administration. In the sense of a
• 28:50
  Speaker 11: Cuba You're you're absolutely right. They don't produce anything, resise,
• 28:53
  Speaker 11: recides sugarcane. They you know, they're they're exceptionally isolated from
• 28:58
  Speaker 11: most of us in the world. They got us allowed
• 29:01
  Speaker 11: a Russian tanker to provide them some oil for humanitarian reasons.
• 29:05
  Speaker 11: Then the president has said, you know, we're going to
• 29:07
  Speaker 11: continue to allow this to happen, just for humanitarian but otherwise,
• 29:11
  Speaker 11: you know, just enough so that the population doesn't suffer
• 29:16
  Speaker 11: some massive humanitarian crisis.
• 29:18
  Speaker 2: So because then it would be on us, right if
• 29:20
  Speaker 2: they have sorted to step on you, because then it
• 29:22
  Speaker 2: would be for us to step up and save them.
• 29:24
  Speaker 2: So it's like it actually helps us out by just
• 29:26
  Speaker 2: letting the Russian tanker be there to help them.
• 29:29
  Speaker 4: Yeah.
• 29:29
  Speaker 11: Absolutely, And you don't want to create, you don't want
• 29:33
  Speaker 11: to hurt the people that you're trying to liberate, because
• 29:35
  Speaker 11: then then they'll unite against their government, what despotic or
• 29:38
  Speaker 11: tyrannicalism may be. They'll they'll see them as the protector
• 29:42
  Speaker 11: against someone who's trying to actually change the behavior of
• 29:45
  Speaker 11: the human people. It's going to require a lot more
• 29:48
  Speaker 11: than that. It's going to require a lot more psychological operations,
• 29:51
  Speaker 11: information operations. You know, you know, a Voice of America.
• 29:55
  Speaker 11: You know, let's let's bring that back. Let's These are
• 29:58
  Speaker 11: the kinds of things that you that they it's the idea.
• 30:01
  Speaker 11: It's not just a financial aspect that we really need
• 30:03
  Speaker 11: there in the island.
• 30:04
  Speaker 2: It's funny you say that because the AM radio stations
• 30:07
  Speaker 2: in Cuba broadcast at five hundred thousand watts. Now in
• 30:12
  Speaker 2: the United States, the maximum wattage for an AM is
• 30:15
  Speaker 2: fifty thousand watts, like seven to ten war. We're a
• 30:18
  Speaker 2: fifty thousand watts station, which is powerful for a region,
• 30:21
  Speaker 2: for a little it's not a little island. It's a
• 30:23
  Speaker 2: long island, but it's not that wide. Five hundred thousand
• 30:25
  Speaker 2: watts spreads out for about five hundred miles in all directions.
• 30:29
  Speaker 2: At night in South Florida, you can hear the Cuban
• 30:31
  Speaker 2: radio stations on AM better than you can hear the
• 30:33
  Speaker 2: local stations, and that is to keep our signals out
• 30:35
  Speaker 2: of their country on purpose. So it's interesting you talk
• 30:38
  Speaker 2: about Voice of America. Before I let you go, though,
• 30:40
  Speaker 2: I want to ask you really quickly about the situation
• 30:43
  Speaker 2: of Congress in California. You're running as a Republican in
• 30:46
  Speaker 2: California's forty ninth congressional district. How's that looking? Because it
• 30:51
  Speaker 2: pardoned me with redistricting and whatnot. What are the chances
• 30:53
  Speaker 2: of having any Republicans elected to Congress in California?
• 30:56
  Speaker 4: Now? It's always hard.
• 31:00
  Speaker 2: Yeah, did we lose armon?
• 31:03
  Speaker 4: What they did? They they can you hear me? Yeah?
• 31:06
  Speaker 2: Now we got you back. You dropped out for a second,
• 31:07
  Speaker 2: We got you back.
• 31:08
  Speaker 4: Sorry. Yeah.
• 31:09
  Speaker 11: What they did they drew out a couple of candidates
• 31:12
  Speaker 11: just they just curved them just right out of their
• 31:14
  Speaker 11: district that they were actually running for. They put two
• 31:16
  Speaker 11: other very popular Republicans in the same district. So it
• 31:18
  Speaker 11: was a very very deliberate and malicious effort on their parts.
• 31:23
  Speaker 4: But it is it's certainly not impossible.
• 31:25
  Speaker 11: With the right messaging and on the right type of
• 31:27
  Speaker 11: campaign strategy, you can go. I've always thought the Republicans
• 31:30
  Speaker 11: tend to waste a lot of money in their campaigns
• 31:33
  Speaker 11: and stuff that's not effective. I've been very, very focused
• 31:35
  Speaker 11: on direct voter contact and the kind of messaging that
• 31:39
  Speaker 11: connects with photos, you know, it's cost of living, it's education,
• 31:41
  Speaker 11: it's jobs. You have the highest unemployment of any state
• 31:43
  Speaker 11: in the country and one and a half million people
• 31:45
  Speaker 11: who fled the state.
• 31:46
  Speaker 4: That's tangible. Even the labor unions understand that.
• 31:49
  Speaker 11: So it's it's it's all about that that that that
• 31:53
  Speaker 11: kind of work, and also cooperating with down ballid candidates
• 31:56
  Speaker 11: to help help them, help you, you help them kind
• 31:58
  Speaker 11: of going forward. It's it's them an all hands on
• 32:00
  Speaker 11: deck effort. California is not beyond saving. What is reflected
• 32:04
  Speaker 11: in you've seen the national media is the people aren't
• 32:08
  Speaker 11: that crazy. We've got some crazy people here, certainly, but
• 32:10
  Speaker 11: it's not as crazy on mass as it might seem.
• 32:13
  Speaker 11: And uh, you know, if you work hard every now
• 32:16
  Speaker 11: and then you pull.
• 32:16
  Speaker 2: Off on let's let's keep our fingers crossed. Twenty five
• 32:19

  Speaker 5: Well we're close.
• 33:22
  Speaker 2: I used to live out well at home, I lived

• 33:31
  Speaker 2: live in Corum. It's like fifty years ago. There we go. Anyway,
• 33:33
  Speaker 2: good morning. What would you like to talk about?
• 33:36
  Speaker 6: I just was you know, we're trying to promote.
• 33:38
  Speaker 5: The real reason for a Memorial Day.
• 33:40
  Speaker 10: And I just thought if we asked people to perhaps
• 33:43
  Speaker 10: fly their flags at half staff, that that might be
• 33:46
  Speaker 10: a reminder.
• 33:48
  Speaker 5: People service.
• 33:50
  Speaker 2: I think that's a great idea because it is meant
• 33:52
  Speaker 2: when you fly the flags at half staff, it's meant to,
• 33:55
  Speaker 2: of course, remember somebody who died, somebody significant in our community.
• 33:58
  Speaker 2: And if you volunteer to serve, and everybody in our
• 34:01
  Speaker 2: military volunteered. If you volunteer to serve and you died
• 34:05
  Speaker 2: in the action of protecting our country, even if it
• 34:08
  Speaker 2: was in training, then you deserve that honor. I appreciate that.
• 34:12
  Speaker 2: That's very nice that you said that. What are your
• 34:14
  Speaker 2: plans for the weekend?
• 34:16
  Speaker 10: Oh, just hanging around the house with your kids.
• 34:19
  Speaker 2: Yeah, it's a good thing.
• 34:20
  Speaker 6: But I will be thinking about my dad, who wasn't bad.
• 34:24
  Speaker 2: Amen. Is dad with us?
• 34:26
  Speaker 6: Nope, not any longer.
• 34:28
  Speaker 2: Well rest his soul. And thank you to you and
• 34:30
  Speaker 2: your family and dad for his service. We appreciate you,
• 34:34
  Speaker 2: and we thank you so much for calling. Thank you, Francis,
• 34:37
  Speaker 2: have a good day you too. Eight is seven to
• 34:40
  Speaker 2: ten wo R the Voice of New York. It's Ken
• 34:43
  Speaker 2: Rosanto in for Mark Simone. We're going to have clouds today,
• 34:46
  Speaker 2: then rain tomorrow through Memorial Day Monday. But as we
• 34:49
  Speaker 2: had a caller earlier say, it's not about sunshine and
• 34:53
  Speaker 2: enjoying the beach. This is supposed to be about remembering
• 34:56
  Speaker 2: those who sacrifice for our country. Tempts today in the sixties,
• 34:59
  Speaker 2: the fifth tomorrow, back to the low sixties Sunday, we
• 35:02
  Speaker 2: might hit seventy on Monday again, Ken Rosatto, and from
• 35:06
  Speaker 2: Mark on your Friday coming up later in our broadcast.
• 35:08
  Speaker 2: Did you hear that so called environmental experts quietly revised
• 35:13
  Speaker 2: their doom and gloom forecasts? All the sky is falling
• 35:17
  Speaker 2: shouts from the last decade, all based on flawed data.
• 35:22
  Speaker 2: You didn't hear about it? Why NBCABCCBS, none of them
• 35:26
  Speaker 2: decided to talk about it. Maybe it didn't fit a
• 35:28
  Speaker 2: certain narrative. We'll speak with the tyranny and founder of
• 35:31
  Speaker 2: Save Jersey, Matt Rooney seven ten woar. The Voice of
• 35:35
  Speaker 2: New York will be back right after the.
• 35:37
  Speaker 1: News now the Mark Simone Show on seven ten woor.
• 35:42
  Speaker 5: Filling in for Mark, Here's Ken Rosatto.
• 35:46
  Speaker 2: It's so nice to be with you on a Friday,
• 35:48
  Speaker 2: Memorial Day weekend, that very special long weekend. Mark enjoying
• 35:52
  Speaker 2: his weekend off, and it is good to be sitting here.
• 35:55
  Speaker 2: Former New York City TV news anchor Ken Rosatto in
• 35:58
  Speaker 2: for duty today. I was twenty years at Channel seven.
• 36:01
  Speaker 2: I was at Channel five doing Good Day New York
• 36:03
  Speaker 2: before that, so it's good to be here now on
• 36:05
  Speaker 2: the radio. I actually did radio many years before I
• 36:09
  Speaker 2: got to TV, and then I kind of missed it
• 36:12
  Speaker 2: when I was on TV and they didn't allow us
• 36:14
  Speaker 2: to do radio as well. At the time, I was
• 36:17
  Speaker 2: very sad because radio was my first love. And it's
• 36:20
  Speaker 2: like I'm back with my high school sweetheart, if you will,
• 36:23
  Speaker 2: being back on radio. But it's great to be here.
• 36:25
  Speaker 2: I now do. I do a show on a New
• 36:27
  Speaker 2: Jersey channel, a streaming channel called on New JERSEYNJ dot com.
• 36:32
  Speaker 2: I'm on weekdays there and it's great. So it's a
• 36:35
  Speaker 2: New Jersey state wide channel. We've now expanded to a
• 36:38
  Speaker 2: bunch of other channels around the country, so we're on
• 36:40
  Speaker 2: to about one hundred million people a day having a
• 36:42
  Speaker 2: good time with that. You could check us out every
• 36:44
  Speaker 2: day there at ONNJ dot com when you have finished
• 36:47
  Speaker 2: listening to seven to ten wor, which you should never
• 36:50
  Speaker 2: finish listening to I listened to around the clock. Anyway,
• 36:53
  Speaker 2: It's great to be here again. Mark off of the weekend.
• 36:56
  Speaker 2: Canrosatta win? And for those who have not heard about this,
• 37:00
  Speaker 2: had to share? Did you know that Governor Kathy Hochel,
• 37:04
  Speaker 2: Governor Kathy Hokel has decided to codify something in New
• 37:07
  Speaker 2: York State, something that unofficially has existed for years. But
• 37:12
  Speaker 2: New York is now officially and publicly and on paper
• 37:17
  Speaker 2: a sanctuary state.
• 37:20
  Speaker 4: Right?
• 37:20
  Speaker 2: And did you just have your stomach acid just squash
• 37:23
  Speaker 2: up in your mouth? I asked you, o, fellow taxpayer
• 37:26
  Speaker 2: New Yorker, when I say, even though I live in
• 37:28
  Speaker 2: New Jersey, I'm a taxpayer New Yorker because when I
• 37:30
  Speaker 2: come here to work and earn money, I pay New
• 37:32
  Speaker 2: York City and New York State taxes as well. Just
• 37:34
  Speaker 2: so you know what benefit to you and the State
• 37:37
  Speaker 2: of New York is there by officially mandating that New
• 37:41
  Speaker 2: York be a sanctuary state. What we've seen so far,
• 37:45
  Speaker 2: and this is, by the way, not look you could say, ken,
• 37:47
  Speaker 2: we were all migrants. We've all immigrated at some point
• 37:50
  Speaker 2: our families in the United States, et SA, don't be
• 37:52
  Speaker 2: so mean, right, My family had to wait seventeen years
• 37:56
  Speaker 2: to get in legally to the United States. I don't
• 37:58
  Speaker 2: know about yours, but we went through the the channels. There
• 38:00
  Speaker 2: were channels put forth, and you know that after I
• 38:03
  Speaker 2: guess it was the late nineteen thirties, the United States
• 38:07
  Speaker 2: actually imposed the rule that there would only be fifty
• 38:10
  Speaker 2: thousand people immigrating in as legal citizens per year, and
• 38:15
  Speaker 2: that existed until the early nineteen sixties. Fifty thousand and
• 38:19
  Speaker 2: the United States had over one hundred million citizens, so
• 38:23
  Speaker 2: that basically immigration was shut down for forty years thirty
• 38:27
  Speaker 2: forty years in the United States. And the purpose of
• 38:30
  Speaker 2: that was not to be xenophobic. It was so that
• 38:32
  Speaker 2: the people who had come here in mass from the
• 38:35
  Speaker 2: late eighteen hundreds, including Southern Europeans like Italians, like many
• 38:38
  Speaker 2: of my relatives, so that when they came over they
• 38:41
  Speaker 2: could assimilate, learn the language, be educated, become part of
• 38:45
  Speaker 2: the fabric of the society that is the United States.
• 38:48
  Speaker 2: The purpose of coming here is not so that you
• 38:50
  Speaker 2: could bring you know, Lithuania, Italy, Spain and make this
• 38:54
  Speaker 2: Spain Italy Lithuania. The purpose of leaving your country and
• 38:58
  Speaker 2: coming here is to become knitted in to the fabric
• 39:00
  Speaker 2: that is the United States, learning the culture of the
• 39:03
  Speaker 2: customs and being a proud American. Not to come here,
• 39:06
  Speaker 2: make a few bucks, go back to your country. This
• 39:08
  Speaker 2: is not a place to do that. That is not
• 39:10
  Speaker 2: what the purpose is. So that's why I think so
• 39:12
  Speaker 2: many people get so insulted and angered to the core
• 39:16
  Speaker 2: when you have the Biden administration doing what it did,
• 39:18
  Speaker 2: opening the borders wide and basically saying if you come in, well,
• 39:21
  Speaker 2: look the other way. Just become part of society here.
• 39:24
  Speaker 2: You know, if you want to work, you want to work,
• 39:25
  Speaker 2: off the books, whatever, and take the money, go back
• 39:27
  Speaker 2: to your country. Disgusting, disgusting. It violates every rule. It
• 39:32
  Speaker 2: basically sticks up the middle finger and all the laws
• 39:34
  Speaker 2: we have passed. If you don't like the laws, change
• 39:36
  Speaker 2: the laws. But you don't, you don't just basically ignore
• 39:40
  Speaker 2: the laws and do so in the process insulting every
• 39:44
  Speaker 2: tax paying US citizen. And look at what's happened in
• 39:47
  Speaker 2: the process. It's just ignorant on the part of the
• 39:51
  Speaker 2: former Biden administration. Many countries that are nefarious with nefarious
• 39:56
  Speaker 2: plans did what Cuba did in the early nineteen six
• 40:00
  Speaker 2: to the United States, and that has opened up their
• 40:02
  Speaker 2: prisons and said here, go up, you want to go,
• 40:04
  Speaker 2: We'll let you go free. We'll even give you money.
• 40:07
  Speaker 2: Go to the United States and live there. Because it
• 40:09
  Speaker 2: costs a lot of money to house an inmate, especially
• 40:12
  Speaker 2: some of the worst inmates. You have to put them
• 40:14
  Speaker 2: in special blocks, in many cases in isolation. So you
• 40:18
  Speaker 2: had countries like we know for a fact now Venezuela
• 40:21
  Speaker 2: opened its prisons and let thousands and thousands of prisoners
• 40:24
  Speaker 2: come to the United States. And now we have bangangs
• 40:27
  Speaker 2: like trend de Airagua terrorizing cities all over the country.
• 40:31
  Speaker 2: And we didn't have to have that if the Biden
• 40:34
  Speaker 2: administration had just allowed the process to take place. And
• 40:37
  Speaker 2: if I hear one more person say, but our immigration
• 40:41
  Speaker 2: system is broken, mister Rizzatto, what's broken about it? We
• 40:45
  Speaker 2: have seventy laws on federal books right now detailing how
• 40:50
  Speaker 2: to become a citizen of the United States. We leave,
• 40:53
  Speaker 2: we let two to three million people migrate legally into
• 40:58
  Speaker 2: the United States. Do you know that that is more
• 41:02
  Speaker 2: than every other country on Earth combined allows into their countries.
• 41:08
  Speaker 2: Where does it say in our constitution that our job
• 41:10
  Speaker 2: is to open the doors to the rest of the
• 41:12
  Speaker 2: seven billion people on the planet. We could not survive
• 41:16
  Speaker 2: as a country if we continue to do that. As
• 41:19
  Speaker 2: the left loves to say, it's unsustainable. That's one of
• 41:23
  Speaker 2: the code words. It makes my stomach twinge. Unsustainable, mister Thoto,
• 41:27
  Speaker 2: it's unsustainable. You've got to say it with a lisp.
• 41:29
  Speaker 2: It's unsustainable. Well, it's unsustainable to have open borders. Because here,
• 41:35
  Speaker 2: let's go down the list the show that I do
• 41:38
  Speaker 2: in New Jersey, we have a wonderful meteorologist, as they
• 41:42
  Speaker 2: have a wonderful mediorologist year and he's a very dear
• 41:44
  Speaker 2: friend of mine. I'm not going to say his name,
• 41:45
  Speaker 2: but if you watch the show, you don't know who
• 41:47
  Speaker 2: he is. And he points out every day he stays
• 41:49
  Speaker 2: out of politics totally, but he points out that we
• 41:51
  Speaker 2: are constantly in a water demand for water, that we're
• 41:55
  Speaker 2: constantly short of water in New Jersey, and right now,
• 41:58
  Speaker 2: with all the heavy rain we've had for months, including
• 42:00
  Speaker 2: over the reservoirs, we're still below the needed amount of water. Well,
• 42:06
  Speaker 2: another friend of mine, who is an environmental scientist who
• 42:09
  Speaker 2: used to be very far to the left and has
• 42:10
  Speaker 2: now come to the center, pointed something out to me
• 42:13
  Speaker 2: the other day that I never thought of. And I
• 42:14
  Speaker 2: will now point that out to you, and you will
• 42:16
  Speaker 2: scratch your head and say, well, that makes sense. If
• 42:19
  Speaker 2: you look at the top six states in the country
• 42:23
  Speaker 2: where the left rule and you have sanctuary state status,
• 42:28
  Speaker 2: all those top six states suffer from water shortages right now.
• 42:34
  Speaker 2: But if you look at how much water has rained,
• 42:37
  Speaker 2: they had the same amount of rain now that they
• 42:38
  Speaker 2: had thirty years ago at this time. So what's changed
• 42:42
  Speaker 2: the population? Not the legal population. Ah, you see where
• 42:46
  Speaker 2: I'm going, the illegal population. The state of New Jersey
• 42:50
  Speaker 2: has nine million legal residents and about one million illegal residents. Okay,
• 42:57
  Speaker 2: when they set up the infrastructure of the fine garden
• 42:59
  Speaker 2: statee and it is a great state. I love New Jersey.
• 43:02
  Speaker 2: I was born and raised in Lower New York. I
• 43:04
  Speaker 2: was raised in Westchester County, so I love New York.
• 43:07
  Speaker 2: I went to high school and college here in Manhattan.
• 43:09
  Speaker 2: I went to Regis High School, NYU very proud of
• 43:12
  Speaker 2: New York. But I got a taste of New Jersey
• 43:14
  Speaker 2: in two thousand and three, two thousand and four and
• 43:16
  Speaker 2: never went back. I've been a New Jersey resident ever since.
• 43:20
  Speaker 2: I love New Jersey and I live part time in Florida.
• 43:22
  Speaker 2: But I just love New Jersey for so many reasons.
• 43:26
  Speaker 2: But when you take nine million and you add a
• 43:29
  Speaker 2: million in a short time, over a few year period,
• 43:32
  Speaker 2: you add a million eleig of migrants, you don't fix
• 43:36
  Speaker 2: the infrastructure. Here's what you get now we are short
• 43:40
  Speaker 2: water buildings that were meant to accommodate, that had apartments
• 43:45
  Speaker 2: that should accommodate two people. You suddenly have twelve people
• 43:48
  Speaker 2: jamming into apartments like that. It happens all over Newark.
• 43:51
  Speaker 2: I have friends who work for the building's department in
• 43:53
  Speaker 2: Newark who've told me time and time again, they show
• 43:55
  Speaker 2: up because pipes are bursting in buildings. Why think about
• 43:59
  Speaker 2: this lush a toilet in an apartment that's meant to
• 44:02
  Speaker 2: take two flushes an hour. I mean literally, engineers for
• 44:06
  Speaker 2: buildings will tell you this. They calculate, okay, if each
• 44:09
  Speaker 2: apartment in the building flushes twice an hour, the building's
• 44:13
  Speaker 2: pipes can accommodate this many flushes. That's actually calculated by
• 44:17
  Speaker 2: people who design plumbing in the code departments and whatnot.
• 44:20
  Speaker 2: All of a sudden, if you sex stupple the amount
• 44:22
  Speaker 2: of residents in each apartment, there is no way the pipes,
• 44:26
  Speaker 2: and those buildings can maintain all the flushes and all
• 44:29
  Speaker 2: the draw on the water. So you have people turning
• 44:32
  Speaker 2: on water and all of a sudden they hear their
• 44:33
  Speaker 2: pipes are like that because they're literally straining. There's not
• 44:36
  Speaker 2: enough water to get through. That's what happens when you
• 44:39
  Speaker 2: put four or five, six times the population into a
• 44:42
  Speaker 2: building that it was supposed to have, and it's not
• 44:44
  Speaker 2: fair to the tenants who have been living there and
• 44:46
  Speaker 2: paying rent, et cetera. All of a sudden they have eight, ten,
• 44:49
  Speaker 2: twelve people as their neighbors when that wasn't supposed to
• 44:52
  Speaker 2: be the case. That's too much of a draw on
• 44:55
  Speaker 2: the electricity, too much of a draw on the water,
• 44:57
  Speaker 2: too much flushing of the toilets, et cetera. And the
• 45:00
  Speaker 2: infrastructure suffers. The streets are more congested, the schools are inundated.
• 45:04
  Speaker 2: Remember in the eighties, what we heard from our leftist
• 45:07
  Speaker 2: friends was to have proper education, we need to have
• 45:10
  Speaker 2: smaller class sizes. We need to have twelve kids in
• 45:12
  Speaker 2: a classroom. By the way, I went to Regis High School.
• 45:14
  Speaker 2: We had thirty five kids in a classroom. It's considered
• 45:16
  Speaker 2: the best high school in America. And all our people
• 45:20
  Speaker 2: had Ivy League. So what I'm looking for when you
• 45:25
  Speaker 2: get a free free ride to college? Thank you. We
• 45:28
  Speaker 2: all ended up in great colleges with the free rides,
• 45:32
  Speaker 2: all right, And we had thirty thirty five kids to
• 45:34
  Speaker 2: a class. So don't tell me that it's all about
• 45:35
  Speaker 2: class size. But that's what the left tried to sell
• 45:37
  Speaker 2: us through the teachers unions in the eighties and nineties.
• 45:39
  Speaker 2: All of a sudden, though, when illegal aliens come into
• 45:42
  Speaker 2: and yes, legally, they're called illegal aliens in federal documentation.
• 45:45
  Speaker 2: So I'm not trying to be offensive to anyone, So
• 45:47
  Speaker 2: don't take offense and clutch your pearls all of a
• 45:49
  Speaker 2: sudden when you have twenty more kids added to a
• 45:52
  Speaker 2: class that were not anticipated at the beginning of the
• 45:54
  Speaker 2: school year. You anticipated, oh, we'll have twenty five kids.
• 45:57
  Speaker 2: First day of school, the teacher comes in, they're forty
• 45:59
  Speaker 2: kids sitting there. That's because by law, you have to
• 46:02
  Speaker 2: accommodate the kids who are there. You don't and in
• 46:04
  Speaker 2: New Jersey, you don't ask are you a citizen or not? Nope,
• 46:07
  Speaker 2: you come, you're eight years old, you get a seat
• 46:10
  Speaker 2: in the class. We'll also give you three squares a
• 46:12
  Speaker 2: day and on the weekends if the school is closed,
• 46:15
  Speaker 2: we'll still get your food, all right, And I'm okay
• 46:18
  Speaker 2: with that. I get that you're not going to let
• 46:19
  Speaker 2: a kids starve. It's not a kid's problem that their
• 46:22
  Speaker 2: parents did something that is contrary to the laws of
• 46:24
  Speaker 2: the United States. So don't look at me and say, Resida,
• 46:26
  Speaker 2: you're cruel. But the reality is, it's one thing to
• 46:30
  Speaker 2: be empathetic. It's another thing to be foolish, and we
• 46:33
  Speaker 2: are being foolish those on the left who have opened
• 46:37
  Speaker 2: the doors without consulting the rest of society. They've caused
• 46:41
  Speaker 2: irreparable damage to the United States and it will take
• 46:45
  Speaker 2: generations if we have the gumption to correct it. And
• 46:50
  Speaker 2: a lot of people are already wishy washy on the
• 46:53
  Speaker 2: whole fixing the immigrant issue, all right, And by fixing,
• 46:56
  Speaker 2: I mean if you're here illegally, we first invite you
• 46:59
  Speaker 2: to leave on your own. You don't want to leave
• 47:00
  Speaker 2: on your own, then we got to remove you, all right.
• 47:02
  Speaker 2: That's the way the law is. If you voluntarily download
• 47:06
  Speaker 2: the app, take your family, go back to your country,
• 47:09
  Speaker 2: We'll give you the airfare for free, and we'll give
• 47:12
  Speaker 2: you one thousand dollars per person, leaving you get back
• 47:16
  Speaker 2: to your home country, wherever that is, and now you
• 47:19
  Speaker 2: can legally apply to come in with the money we
• 47:21
  Speaker 2: gave you. Why is that cruel and harsh? Why does
• 47:25
  Speaker 2: that mean and not empathetic? There isn't a country on
• 47:27
  Speaker 2: the planet that would do something so kind as to
• 47:31
  Speaker 2: provide the airfare and money so that you can go
• 47:34
  Speaker 2: hire an attorney and come back the legal way. But
• 47:37
  Speaker 2: somehow the left is convinced everybody, especially in TV news,
• 47:41
  Speaker 2: just evil Republicans. They're just heartless. This family has worked here.
• 47:47
  Speaker 2: One has worked here as a bus driver for thirty years,
• 47:51
  Speaker 2: loving his family, and now you want to kick him out,
• 47:54
  Speaker 2: you evil people. No, no, no, no, no. See he
• 47:57
  Speaker 2: shouldn't have been allowed to come in to begin with.
• 47:59
  Speaker 2: Had you done your job and allowed or allowed our
• 48:01
  Speaker 2: border agents to do their job as they took an
• 48:04
  Speaker 2: oath to do, instead of tying their hands and telling them, no,
• 48:07
  Speaker 2: don't do your job, poor one wouldn't have come here
• 48:10
  Speaker 2: with expectations that were not realistic. So now we're supposed
• 48:13
  Speaker 2: to suffer because your party decided to do something contrary
• 48:17
  Speaker 2: to our laws. No, we need to fix the problem.
• 48:20
  Speaker 2: That you caused. And one is welcome, and I'm just
• 48:23
  Speaker 2: saying the name. One. I have family. My family is
• 48:25
  Speaker 2: part Puerto Rican and part Argentinian. So and again say listen,
• 48:29
  Speaker 2: he's a racist, he's Antiaspanic. Okay, baby, I speak Spanish fluently.
• 48:38
  Speaker 2: Don't get on my case. And I lived in Miami
• 48:42
  Speaker 2: full time for five years and everybody, all my friends, yes,
• 48:46
  Speaker 2: some of my best friends are Latino. I'm married to
• 48:50
  Speaker 2: Puerto Rican and I happen to have family through Argentina.
• 48:54
  Speaker 2: So calm your horses.
• 48:56
  Speaker 4: Uh.
• 48:56
  Speaker 2: The point is you are welcome in our country, but
• 48:59
  Speaker 2: you got to come here the right way. And anyone
• 49:02
  Speaker 2: who comes here the right way, you are welcome to
• 49:04
  Speaker 2: enjoy all the benefits of America. But if you don't
• 49:07
  Speaker 2: come here the right way, I don't hate you. I
• 49:09
  Speaker 2: just invite you to leave, take the money we're offering you,
• 49:12
  Speaker 2: and then come back the legal way, and I will
• 49:14
  Speaker 2: welcome you as my brother, as a fellow American. Is
• 49:18
  Speaker 2: that so hard? Is that so cruel? We'd love to
• 49:21
  Speaker 2: hear what you have to say about it. Eight hundred

  Speaker 5: Here again is Ken Rosato.
• 50:07
  Speaker 2: And a very good Friday morning to You're good to
• 50:09
  Speaker 2: be with you. Mark has the weekend off. Let's go
• 50:11
  Speaker 2: to our busy phones, our good friend Vincent in Brooklyn.
• 50:14
  Speaker 5: Good morning, Vincent, Good morning, Good morning.
• 50:16
  Speaker 7: Ken. Great to hear your voice speaking of people having
• 50:21
  Speaker 7: all these legals in their apartment, and you were talking
• 50:26
  Speaker 7: about the sewer and the water lines. Well, two years ago,
• 50:30
  Speaker 7: in one of in my building, I had to have
• 50:34
  Speaker 7: the main sewer line replaced because it was old and
• 50:38
  Speaker 7: it had wear and tear on it and it was
• 50:42
  Speaker 7: pretty pretty expensive, you know. So these houses, most of
• 50:47
  Speaker 7: them were only made to as you pointed out, were
• 50:51
  Speaker 7: made for so many people occupying the apartments and everything.
• 50:56
  Speaker 7: In the fifties, my dad owned the large apartment building
• 51:00
  Speaker 7: and a lot of his tenants they were mainly Italian
• 51:04
  Speaker 7: and Hispanic. I remembered my mom telling my dad that
• 51:10
  Speaker 7: so and so a family member was covered from such
• 51:14
  Speaker 7: a place and they were going to be caught. Back
• 51:17
  Speaker 7: in those days, you had to have a sponsor. You
• 51:19
  Speaker 7: had to show you weren't going to be a burden
• 51:22
  Speaker 7: into the system. You couldn't be on welfare and everything.
• 51:26
  Speaker 7: And my father would then go to the tenant and say, well, look,
• 51:31
  Speaker 7: you're going to use such and such more services, water, this, that,
• 51:35
  Speaker 7: and the other. And my father would just increased their
• 51:39
  Speaker 7: rent by a little to cover his course for the
• 51:42
  Speaker 7: added use of the manly the water and the hot water.
• 51:47
  Speaker 2: But Linta, do you remember there was a certain Democrat
• 51:51
  Speaker 2: president in the early nineteen sixties who said, ask not
• 51:54
  Speaker 2: what your country can do for you, ask what you
• 51:57
  Speaker 2: can do for your country. And I remember the late
• 51:59
  Speaker 2: great Rush Limbaugh saying that we don't have an obligation
• 52:04
  Speaker 2: to open the door to be the supermarket to the world,
• 52:09
  Speaker 2: the place for everyone to come and make a few
• 52:11
  Speaker 2: bucks and go home. This is a country and we
• 52:14
  Speaker 2: don't have to accept everybody who wants to come here.
• 52:16
  Speaker 2: We could be very picky and say what do you
• 52:19
  Speaker 2: have to contribute here for us to let you in?
• 52:21
  Speaker 2: We should be discriminatory. And I mean by discriminatory, I
• 52:25
  Speaker 2: mean what can you benefit. I don't care what country
• 52:27
  Speaker 2: you're from. I don't care what color you are, what
• 52:29
  Speaker 2: religion you are, that has no bearing. What can you
• 52:32
  Speaker 2: offer the United States of America?
• 52:35
  Speaker 7: Exactly? You one hundred percent right, Ken? And I actually
• 52:39
  Speaker 7: have a friend who a couple of years ago passed away,
• 52:42
  Speaker 7: but his dad came over in one of the early
• 52:45
  Speaker 7: waves of immigration, I think like nineteen hundred like that,
• 52:50
  Speaker 7: and he was rejected. Three times they sent him back
• 52:54
  Speaker 7: because whatever he didn't meet the criteria. And four time
• 53:00
  Speaker 7: they happen to be at Ellis Island. There happened to
• 53:03
  Speaker 7: be somebody from who was from the same town as
• 53:07
  Speaker 7: he was, and they had a mutual friend. And this
• 53:11
  Speaker 7: person stepped up and said, my family will sponsor him
• 53:16
  Speaker 7: and me my family that's already here. And that's how
• 53:20
  Speaker 7: we got to stay because they were gonna send this
• 53:22
  Speaker 7: guy back for the fourth time. Speaking of squatters and
• 53:27
  Speaker 7: people living in the apartments illegally, about thirty years ago,
• 53:31
  Speaker 7: one of my apartments, I noticed there was another name
• 53:34
  Speaker 7: on the mailbox that I didn't rent to this person.
• 53:38
  Speaker 7: So I went to the tenant and I said, who's
• 53:40
  Speaker 7: living here that's not on the lease And she says, oh, well,
• 53:43
  Speaker 7: this is my cousin from France. I says, well, I'll
• 53:47
  Speaker 7: tell you what. You have until the end of the
• 53:50
  Speaker 7: month to either get him an apartment because he's not
• 53:54
  Speaker 7: going to live here, or you get an apartment because
• 53:57
  Speaker 7: you're not gonna live here. And you want to know what.
• 54:00
  Speaker 7: All of them left the apartment because I wasn't playing around.
• 54:03
  Speaker 7: I told them you get him out or you get out.
• 54:06
  Speaker 2: Somehow, I think if Vincent looks at me and says
• 54:09
  Speaker 2: you get out, I'll get out. I don't know, Vincent.
• 54:11
  Speaker 2: I just I would listen to you. But you're a
• 54:13
  Speaker 2: great man, Vincent. I hope you're doing something memorable for
• 54:16
  Speaker 2: Memorial Day to remember those who fought and died for
• 54:18
  Speaker 2: our country. I'm sure you are, because you are a
• 54:20
  Speaker 2: great American. But as always I love when you call
• 54:23
  Speaker 2: God bless you. Have a great weekend, my friend, and
• 54:25
  Speaker 2: I'll be on Monday, so I'll get that. Please call
• 54:27
  Speaker 2: back again. We'll talk to you Monday. Thanks you, Vincent.
• 54:30
  Speaker 5: Vincent's so fun.
• 54:31
  Speaker 2: I love Vincent. Peter Jackson, New Jersey, Happy Friday, Good
• 54:35
  Speaker 2: morning to you.
• 54:37
  Speaker 13: Good morning, Ken. Yeah, Vincent's absolutely right. I am a
• 54:41
  Speaker 13: citizen by choice. My mother brought us over here, and
• 54:46
  Speaker 13: the first thing was she has to do two and
• 54:48
  Speaker 13: three jobs. Right from the beginning. We were sponsored to
• 54:52
  Speaker 13: get in here. She waited three years. We did it
• 54:55
  Speaker 13: the right way.
• 54:55
  Speaker 6: At the age of eighteen.
• 54:57
  Speaker 13: I went myself and I applied.
• 54:59
  Speaker 2: For Americans as a ship.
• 55:01
  Speaker 13: Where you're from, you know, everything was English has spoken
• 55:05
  Speaker 13: in this house now, not that she wanted us to
• 55:07
  Speaker 13: lose our heritage, and therefore I always went to school
• 55:12
  Speaker 13: on Saturdays also to keep that up. But America is
• 55:16
  Speaker 13: now my country, and so it is for my kids.
• 55:19
  Speaker 2: You know, it's funny you say that because my father's side,
• 55:21
  Speaker 2: his mother and father had broken English. They spoke when
• 55:25
  Speaker 2: they came over. But my father came from a family
• 55:27
  Speaker 2: of nine boys. They were in Yonkers. Do you know
• 55:30
  Speaker 2: that not one of my uncles nor my father. None
• 55:33
  Speaker 2: of them had an accent. They all spoke fluent English.
• 55:37
  Speaker 2: Most of them went to college, they all served in
• 55:39
  Speaker 2: the military. That was America. And you're right, you were
• 55:42
  Speaker 2: not allowed to speak anything but English in the home.
• 55:44
  Speaker 2: When those kids came home, they spoke English as And
• 55:47
  Speaker 2: I always say it's because of my grandparents imposing that
• 55:50
  Speaker 2: on my father that I did not have any kind
• 55:53
  Speaker 2: of an accent, because if my father had an accent,
• 55:56
  Speaker 2: I would have probably been impacted and never had a
• 55:58
  Speaker 2: broadcasting career. I'm with you one hundred percent. There you go,
• 56:01
  Speaker 2: and you know what, it doesn't mean. I don't care
• 56:03
  Speaker 2: where they're from. The point is, you come to America.
• 56:05
  Speaker 2: The commonly accepted language here is English, and it's best
• 56:09
  Speaker 2: for you coming here for you want to be in
• 56:11
  Speaker 2: business and in school to learn the language that the
• 56:13
  Speaker 2: majority of the people speak. It's not being discriminatory against
• 56:17
  Speaker 2: other languages. I speak seven languages by choice, but America
• 56:21
  Speaker 2: is where we speak English as a nation. That's all.
• 56:23
  Speaker 2: It's as simple as that. It helps us. Peter, thank
• 56:25
  Speaker 2: you so much. Let's have a memorable Memorial Day weekend
• 56:29
  Speaker 2: for those who have fought and died for our country.
• 56:32
  Speaker 2: Seven ten WR. It's eleven thirty two Friday. Ken Razatto
• 56:35
  Speaker 2: went from Mark and in just a few we will
• 56:37
  Speaker 2: speak with Save New Jersey founder Matt Rooney about the
• 56:41
  Speaker 2: quietly revised climate data that basically crushes the doom and
• 56:45
  Speaker 2: gloom predictions made by the environmentalists over the past three decas.
• 56:49
  Speaker 2: That doesn't mean it's okay to pollute, it doesn't mean
• 56:52
  Speaker 2: you should dump plastic in the water. I'm not saying that.
• 56:55
  Speaker 2: But the world is going to end next year with
• 56:58
  Speaker 2: the flooding in Manhattan. We'll talk about it seven to
• 57:01
  Speaker 2: ten wor.
• 57:02
  Speaker 5: This is the Mark.
• 57:03
  Speaker 1: Simone Show on seven ten WR. From Mark Today, here's
• 57:08
  Speaker 1: Ken Roseatto.

  Speaker 2: Good to be with you on a Friday, on Memorial
• 57:12
  Speaker 2: Day weekend, Friday and Mark having a nice long weekend,
• 57:16
  Speaker 2: so it is good to be here to phill in. Yesterday,
• 57:18
  Speaker 2: the great Jim Kerr was in the very seat that
• 57:20
  Speaker 2: I am fortunate enough to punk my backside in What
• 57:24
  Speaker 2: a great, great icon he isn't broadcasting. It was such
• 57:27
  Speaker 2: a great thing. I literally had goosebumps listening to his voice,
• 57:31
  Speaker 2: and of course I always get goosebumps listening to the
• 57:33
  Speaker 2: great Mark Simone. He's one of my favorite broadcasters ever,
• 57:36
  Speaker 2: so but great to be here.
• 57:37
  Speaker 4: Hey.
• 57:38
  Speaker 2: Our next guest is an attorney the founder of Save
• 57:40
  Speaker 2: New Jersey, a conservative political news and media website focused
• 57:44
  Speaker 2: on New Jersey and national politics. We say, good morning
• 57:47
  Speaker 2: and welcome to Matthew Roney. Good to have you on, Matt.
• 57:51
  Speaker 12: Thank you for having me back, my friend.
• 57:53
  Speaker 2: You bet, I know you do it. You do a
• 57:54
  Speaker 2: radio show down in Philly too, right.
• 57:57
  Speaker 6: I do. I'm on twelve ten WPAE.
• 58:02
  Speaker 12: I've got a Tuesday gig. I've got a podcast that's
• 58:04
  Speaker 12: on the weekend. When you like this stuff, it's kind
• 58:07
  Speaker 12: of in your system. It's a disease that you'll never kick,
• 58:10
  Speaker 12: never defeat. There is no cure because we can have
• 58:13
  Speaker 12: a conversation on the radio.
• 58:15
  Speaker 7: Right.
• 58:15
  Speaker 6: That's what I like about it.
• 58:16
  Speaker 2: I love it, and I love you know we we
• 58:18
  Speaker 2: I was on Channel seven for twenty years and and
• 58:21
  Speaker 2: as much as I love doing TV news, there is
• 58:24
  Speaker 2: something about the intimacy of radio that just can't be surpassed.
• 58:28
  Speaker 2: It is awesome. So I I read about I read
• 58:31
  Speaker 2: your whole bio, of course, and I said, this guy
• 58:33
  Speaker 2: is going to be perfect to talk about this topic.
• 58:35
  Speaker 2: I knew it. President Trump pounced when climate modelers, writing
• 58:39
  Speaker 2: in a peer reviewed outlet quietly revised their doom and
• 58:42
  Speaker 2: gloom prediction for the planet's climate. They were off by
• 58:46
  Speaker 2: some four degrees celsius. And so all the doom and
• 58:50
  Speaker 2: gloom that the the oceans would rise here let me,
• 58:53
  Speaker 2: let me become Rush Limba for a second lot. The
• 58:56
  Speaker 2: oceans will rise, the rivers will flood. The late great
• 59:00
  Speaker 2: russelim By channel him here at Wor. He was on
• 59:03
  Speaker 2: this station. And the idea that the world was coming
• 59:06
  Speaker 2: to an end yesterday is false, as it turns out.
• 59:09
  Speaker 2: But they did not pick that up on mainstream media.
• 59:13
  Speaker 2: How is that even possible?
• 59:14
  Speaker 12: Matt Yeah, go figure right, Well, if Rush was here,
• 59:18
  Speaker 12: what would he say? It doesn't fit their narrative. It's
• 59:22
  Speaker 12: all about the narrative. As conservatives, libertarians, wherever you fall
• 59:28
  Speaker 12: in this right of center coalition, one of the things
• 59:30
  Speaker 12: that unites this is we believe in God, we believe
• 59:33
  Speaker 12: in the Constitution. We think there are higher things out
• 59:36
  Speaker 12: there beyond our own narrow self purpose.
• 59:39
  Speaker 6: Not so for the left. They believe in leftism.
• 59:43
  Speaker 12: It's part of the reason why you end up with
• 59:44
  Speaker 12: so many consequences because there's nothing else that ground them.
• 59:48
  Speaker 12: And so the problem when ideology becomes religion is there's
• 59:53
  Speaker 12: no way to just suade someone when they're wrong. I mean,
• 59:56
  Speaker 12: I'm Catholic, so you're not going to convince me that
• 59:59
  Speaker 12: the Amact at the Conception isn't real. It's an article
• 1:00:02
  Speaker 12: of faith, right. What happens when when your politics becomes
• 1:00:06
  Speaker 12: an article of faith, and that's what's happened with climate politics.
• 1:00:11
  Speaker 12: They believe that Mother Gaia is being destroyed by industry.
• 1:00:14
  Speaker 6: It's on its last leg.
• 1:00:16
  Speaker 12: And now no amount of information you give them to
• 1:00:19
  Speaker 12: the contrary will ever change their minds. And rather than
• 1:00:23
  Speaker 12: do what a discriminating human being is supposed to do,
• 1:00:26
  Speaker 12: use the brain God gave you to evaluate new evidence
• 1:00:29
  Speaker 12: and say hey, maybe I was off on this point.
• 1:00:31
  Speaker 6: They're just going to ignore it.
• 1:00:33
  Speaker 12: It's it's sociopathic. Yes, it retards our national ability to
• 1:00:39
  Speaker 12: have a discussion on this subject, But goodness, gracious, you
• 1:00:43
  Speaker 12: know it's not surprising.
• 1:00:45
  Speaker 6: To you or I is it?
• 1:00:47
  Speaker 2: Matt? First of all, I was a Catholic priest, so
• 1:00:49
  Speaker 2: it's nice to hear we have a good Catholic boy
• 1:00:50
  Speaker 2: on God bless you and still very religious years there. God,
• 1:00:55
  Speaker 2: I'm still still very much a Catholic, even though I'm
• 1:00:58
  Speaker 2: not functioning as a priest right now. But I'm with you,
• 1:01:01
  Speaker 2: and I think you nailed it when you pointed that out,
• 1:01:03
  Speaker 2: and Limba you used to talk about that Russia Limbaugh
• 1:01:05
  Speaker 2: all the time as well, and that yes, when you
• 1:01:08
  Speaker 2: don't have God in your life, whether it be just
• 1:01:11
  Speaker 2: believing in spiritually or believing firmly within the structure of
• 1:01:15
  Speaker 2: organized religion, when you don't have God in your life
• 1:01:19
  Speaker 2: as the center, then all of a sudden, something else
• 1:01:22
  Speaker 2: becomes that, whether it be abortion or environment, and if
• 1:01:26
  Speaker 2: somebody tries to talk to you against that topic, suddenly
• 1:01:30
  Speaker 2: they are persona non grata, hated. And that's the reason why,
• 1:01:33
  Speaker 2: in fact, we'll even talk about another person on the radio.
• 1:01:36
  Speaker 2: Mister Bongino used to say that what Republicans think, Democrats
• 1:01:40
  Speaker 2: are good people with bad ideas, but democrats think Republicans
• 1:01:44
  Speaker 2: are bad people. And it comes down to the religious
• 1:01:48
  Speaker 2: aspect of it. Right, we believe we have a higher
• 1:01:50
  Speaker 2: power to whom we must answer, whereas those on the
• 1:01:54
  Speaker 2: far left don't buy that. They believe that they are
• 1:01:57
  Speaker 2: the highest power. For the most part, I don't want
• 1:01:59
  Speaker 2: to be too blanketing. But then you have that problem.
• 1:02:02
  Speaker 2: That's why they don't even bother wanting to sit down
• 1:02:04
  Speaker 2: and talk to the right. Are you there, Matt? Did
• 1:02:10
  Speaker 2: we lose Matt? Maybe I talked too much and Matt said,
• 1:02:14
  Speaker 2: you know what, I'm tired of this guy. Hung up.
• 1:02:15
  Speaker 2: We'll see if we get Matt back. Oh, we got you.
• 1:02:18
  Speaker 6: I think I think I think you have me.
• 1:02:20
  Speaker 12: I think the deep state was trying to accept their
• 1:02:23
  Speaker 12: signs as is prone. As is prone to happen. We
• 1:02:28
  Speaker 12: all we all know.
• 1:02:29
  Speaker 6: But look, no, you you nailed it.
• 1:02:30
  Speaker 12: I mean, that's why this is a This is a
• 1:02:32
  Speaker 12: horse that.
• 1:02:33
  Speaker 6: I've been beating for a long time, and.
• 1:02:35
  Speaker 12: It's part of the reason why it's so easy for
• 1:02:37
  Speaker 12: leftists to say that I'm not going to talk to
• 1:02:41
  Speaker 12: a family member or friend anymore. If you look at
• 1:02:44
  Speaker 12: the studies that have seen in recent years, it's so
• 1:02:47
  Speaker 12: much easier for them to shun someone, to remove them
• 1:02:51
  Speaker 12: from their social or family circle, not by somebody's thanksgiving
• 1:02:54
  Speaker 12: because they disagree on abortion or even something you know
• 1:02:58
  Speaker 12: a little bit more banw like you know whether or not.
• 1:03:01
  Speaker 6: We should be involved in a certain conflict.
• 1:03:04
  Speaker 12: You only get to that point when your priorities are
• 1:03:07
  Speaker 12: hopelessly messed up when you create a secular religion for yourself,
• 1:03:11
  Speaker 12: and that's that's what climate politics is. It's a secular religion.
• 1:03:16
  Speaker 12: It's arrogant to think that a human driving their suv
• 1:03:21
  Speaker 12: can do more damage to this very durable, billions of
• 1:03:24
  Speaker 12: year old planet than anything that could happen in the
• 1:03:28
  Speaker 12: natural environment. So, you know, I'm glad that we've been
• 1:03:31
  Speaker 12: proven correct, but how much is it really worth unless
• 1:03:34
  Speaker 12: we can penetrate their skulls.
• 1:03:35
  Speaker 2: Yeah, that's part of the problem with the left is
• 1:03:38
  Speaker 2: once they believe something like you said, it's becomes their faith,
• 1:03:42
  Speaker 2: it becomes their religion, and you can't even ask to
• 1:03:45
  Speaker 2: talk to them. In fact, I've had friends on the
• 1:03:49
  Speaker 2: far left and I've said, I would like you to
• 1:03:51
  Speaker 2: dissuade me. I will sit there and be quiet, and
• 1:03:53
  Speaker 2: you get they don't want to because the fact that
• 1:03:56
  Speaker 2: you approach them not believing in advance means there's something
• 1:04:01
  Speaker 2: wrong with you, and they don't want to waste their time. Truthfully,
• 1:04:04
  Speaker 2: it's because they don't have an argument, but they don't
• 1:04:06
  Speaker 2: want to waste their time because they don't feel you're
• 1:04:09
  Speaker 2: worthy of it, that's part of the problem. So I
• 1:04:12
  Speaker 2: think as a person to the right, and I'm a
• 1:04:14
  Speaker 2: libertarian conservative, as a person to the right, I welcome
• 1:04:18
  Speaker 2: the discussion. I don't mean fight. I'm not going to
• 1:04:21
  Speaker 2: call you names. I'm not going to be disrespectful if
• 1:04:23
  Speaker 2: there's something I can learn from you. And I've learned
• 1:04:25
  Speaker 2: a lot from many of my liberal friends. Not much
• 1:04:28
  Speaker 2: i'd like to call it'll be proud of, but nonetheless,
• 1:04:30
  Speaker 2: I've learned a lot of things. And I think you know,
• 1:04:33
  Speaker 2: when I was in high school, we learned and debate
• 1:04:36
  Speaker 2: that you have to be able to debate from your
• 1:04:38
  Speaker 2: opponent's side better than from your own if you want
• 1:04:41
  Speaker 2: to be a champion debater, and so you need to
• 1:04:44
  Speaker 2: speak to the opposite side in order to learn what
• 1:04:46
  Speaker 2: the opposite side is talking about.
• 1:04:50
  Speaker 6: Hey, I'm an attorney.
• 1:04:51
  Speaker 12: That's my day job. I hope no want in your
• 1:04:53
  Speaker 12: audience holds it against me, because we're not all vile.
• 1:04:57
  Speaker 12: Many of us are, but not everyone. And I mean
• 1:05:00
  Speaker 12: that's the foundation of my profession. You advocate zealously for
• 1:05:05
  Speaker 12: your client, your position. You're not gonna lie or doing
• 1:05:08
  Speaker 12: any unethical but you're going to try to show them
• 1:05:11
  Speaker 12: in the best possible life. But you know what, after
• 1:05:13
  Speaker 12: the court has done for the day, you go to
• 1:05:15
  Speaker 12: that bar association event and you break bread. You don't
• 1:05:19
  Speaker 12: take it personally. What you're doing is you're performing an
• 1:05:22
  Speaker 12: important function that is one of the things that keeps
• 1:05:26
  Speaker 12: our system glued together. So it's one of the many
• 1:05:30
  Speaker 12: reasons why my head explodes every time a left that
• 1:05:35
  Speaker 12: suggests that it is Trump's conservatives, Republicans whoever, that are
• 1:05:40
  Speaker 12: threatening our fundamental institutions. Nothing is more important in a
• 1:05:44
  Speaker 12: civil society than what you just articulated, the ability to
• 1:05:48
  Speaker 12: disagree without trying to maim or hurt each other or
• 1:05:52
  Speaker 12: cancel each other, or whatever you want to put it.
• 1:05:54
  Speaker 6: But the left is no longer there.
• 1:05:57
  Speaker 12: It's something at the risk of being a little hyperbolic,
• 1:05:59
  Speaker 12: we have haven't been here in this country since the
• 1:06:03
  Speaker 12: eighteen fifties, and we shouldn't. I think understate the risk.
• 1:06:07
  Speaker 12: And it's one of the reasons bringing a full circle,
• 1:06:09
  Speaker 12: why I continue to think that talk radio is so important.
• 1:06:13
  Speaker 12: If we want America to figure out how to have
• 1:06:15
  Speaker 12: a conversation again, we have to show them how.
• 1:06:18
  Speaker 2: Yeah, this is true. Unfortunately many to the left, even
• 1:06:21
  Speaker 2: when there were left leaning talk radio networks, remember Pacifica
• 1:06:25
  Speaker 2: and what people even the left doesn't engage in it
• 1:06:28
  Speaker 2: because they feel they have to formulate the thought process,
• 1:06:31
  Speaker 2: formulate their argument that they don't want to. They don't bother.
• 1:06:34
  Speaker 2: They just feel that automatically you should be born believing this,
• 1:06:37
  Speaker 2: and they want to move on. And it's just very,
• 1:06:39
  Speaker 2: very sad when you see people who have such a
• 1:06:41
  Speaker 2: little value for things like human life, and when you
• 1:06:45
  Speaker 2: have a killing of a CEO like Brian Thompson and
• 1:06:49
  Speaker 2: you have young people who think, well, that's justifiable. And
• 1:06:52
  Speaker 2: when you look at the breakdown of the percentage of
• 1:06:54
  Speaker 2: people on the left who think that murder is justifiable
• 1:06:57
  Speaker 2: in at least certain circumstances versus people from the right,
• 1:07:00
  Speaker 2: it's literally antithetical. The two sides are opposite. It's so
• 1:07:04
  Speaker 2: unreal as a person to the right to see that
• 1:07:07
  Speaker 2: that percentage of people on the left think that in
• 1:07:09
  Speaker 2: certain circumstances death would be acceptable. Where did how did
• 1:07:14
  Speaker 2: we get here? Is it just that we've surrendered to
• 1:07:16
  Speaker 2: the communists? Our educational system.
• 1:07:19
  Speaker 12: That's a big part of it, right, And it's not
• 1:07:21
  Speaker 12: just the education system, you know, even though you are
• 1:07:24
  Speaker 12: talking to you in your Jersey and where one of
• 1:07:26
  Speaker 12: the states where the left grip on young minds is
• 1:07:30
  Speaker 12: the most concerning. But it's the entertainment culture. It's it's
• 1:07:34
  Speaker 12: it's the boarge room, the corporate boarde room, the companies
• 1:07:38
  Speaker 12: that advertise to your children and try to convince them
• 1:07:41
  Speaker 12: which products they should like, which products they shouldn't on
• 1:07:44
  Speaker 12: a daily basis.
• 1:07:46
  Speaker 6: Conservatives made a decision.
• 1:07:48
  Speaker 12: A long time ago to go into non influential professions,
• 1:07:53
  Speaker 12: and that's that was an unfortunate choice. And I think that,
• 1:07:57
  Speaker 12: you know, if you're a conservative leader up there and
• 1:08:00
  Speaker 12: you're looking for ways to impact our country long term,
• 1:08:03
  Speaker 12: maybe consider ways to try to incentivize young right thinking
• 1:08:08
  Speaker 12: men and women to get involved in the education system,
• 1:08:10
  Speaker 12: to get involved in creating their own independent entertainment spheres.
• 1:08:15
  Speaker 12: It's never been more possible with AI and the Internet
• 1:08:18
  Speaker 12: some of the other tools you have at your disposal.
• 1:08:22
  Speaker 12: The good news is that now they don't have a
• 1:08:26
  Speaker 12: vice grip on information anymore. We can thank Elon Musk
• 1:08:29
  Speaker 12: for that, we can thank.
• 1:08:31
  Speaker 6: Rush Limbaugh for that. But we still have a long way.
• 1:08:34
  Speaker 12: To go in this country towards achieving some kind of
• 1:08:39
  Speaker 12: parody with the left and the ability to amplify our positions.
• 1:08:44
  Speaker 12: We're starting to make progress, i mean, ask Paul Bear
• 1:08:47
  Speaker 12: all about it. But we're running out of time, and
• 1:08:50
  Speaker 12: that's what I'm worried about. I'm not worried about Mother
• 1:08:52
  Speaker 12: Gaia imploding or the sea levels rising. I'm worried about
• 1:08:56
  Speaker 12: does there come a point where we just have too
• 1:08:59
  Speaker 12: many people to understand what's great about this country, so
• 1:09:02
  Speaker 12: therefore they don't have the capacity or the will to reinforce.
• 1:09:06
  Speaker 2: It, Which is why we had a limit on immigration
• 1:09:09
  Speaker 2: in the nineteen thirties and forties to fifty thousand a year,
• 1:09:12
  Speaker 2: so that the people who came in in mass could
• 1:09:14
  Speaker 2: assimilate and become Americans and learn what it is to
• 1:09:18
  Speaker 2: be an American and learn the language, and get into
• 1:09:20
  Speaker 2: the education system and become elected leaders locally. That's why
• 1:09:23
  Speaker 2: it wasn't about being evil or being discriminatory, or you
• 1:09:27
  Speaker 2: don't like people who are brown. Stop with the damn
• 1:09:30
  Speaker 2: I'm brown. Stop with the brown silliness. It is silly.
• 1:09:33
  Speaker 2: We have plenty of people of every shade in this
• 1:09:35
  Speaker 2: country and they're all welcome, but nobody from any country
• 1:09:39
  Speaker 2: on the planet needs to come here. Thirty million at
• 1:09:41
  Speaker 2: a time, because that does not let you assimilate to
• 1:09:44
  Speaker 2: become an American.
• 1:09:46
  Speaker 6: Well, and you nailed it right there.
• 1:09:48
  Speaker 12: It has nothing to do with the ethnicity, skin collar,
• 1:09:50
  Speaker 12: who your parents were, which patch of land you were
• 1:09:54
  Speaker 12: born on. I always say I'm a culturalist, right, like
• 1:09:57
  Speaker 12: all humans are equal, but not all cultures.
• 1:09:59
  Speaker 6: Really. I'll give you a classic example.
• 1:10:01
  Speaker 12: If you're coming from a place in the world where
• 1:10:04
  Speaker 12: you want a better life of your family, that's amazing.
• 1:10:06
  Speaker 12: But if that part of the world believes in stoning
• 1:10:09
  Speaker 12: women because they were raped, that's not something that you're
• 1:10:13
  Speaker 12: going to emulate in its country. We're not going to allow.
• 1:10:15
  Speaker 12: We insist that as part of this American enterprise, you
• 1:10:19
  Speaker 12: adopt our values on those all important issues. And to
• 1:10:22
  Speaker 12: your point, you hit it out of the park. That's
• 1:10:24
  Speaker 12: what our system used to be designed to do. That's pluralism.
• 1:10:29
  Speaker 12: That's not what the left has allowed to happen in
• 1:10:34
  Speaker 12: recent decades with unrestricted immigration. So you know, I know
• 1:10:39
  Speaker 12: some people on our side are a little salty with
• 1:10:41
  Speaker 12: the president right now. There's utopians if they don't realize it.
• 1:10:44
  Speaker 12: You know, unless I'm getting ninety nine percent of what
• 1:10:46
  Speaker 12: I want, I'm going.
• 1:10:47
  Speaker 6: To take my ball and go home. If he does
• 1:10:49
  Speaker 6: nothing else. The changes he's made to the.
• 1:10:51
  Speaker 12: Supreme Court in the federal judiciary and closing our borders
• 1:10:55
  Speaker 12: to illegal immigration, it's going to pay dividends for this nation.
• 1:11:00
  Speaker 2: For deecka Nicole, Matt, I got to cut us here
• 1:11:03
