  Speaker 1: Now this is the Mark Simon Show on sevent ten.
• 0:05
  Speaker 1: Wo Hey, well, we got a lot to get to.
• 0:10
  Speaker 1: Caroline Levitt leaving the White House? Why who will replace her?
• 0:14
  Speaker 1: We'll get to all of that. We'll get to Iran,
• 0:17
  Speaker 1: We'll get to Howard Stern. We'll get to by President
• 0:20
  Speaker 1: Trump visiting Long Island tomorrow. It's going to be a
• 0:22
  Speaker 1: traffic mess out there. We'll give you all the details
• 0:25
  Speaker 1: and a whole lot more to get to. We'll get
• 0:27
  Speaker 1: to the latest on the Crazy Mom Donnie CBS leaving
• 0:31
  Speaker 1: New York. Well, we'll get to all of that coming up.
• 0:34
  Speaker 1: Caroline Levitt leaving the White House. It kind of stunned everybody.
• 0:39
  Speaker 1: It's a tough job. It's a very intense job being
• 0:42
  Speaker 1: that White House press secretary. You know, most of us
• 0:46
  Speaker 1: just all we see is the briefing, which is a
• 0:49
  Speaker 1: half hour an hour every day, and that's brutal too.
• 0:51
  Speaker 1: I mean, you're talking to the worst people in the world,
• 0:53
  Speaker 1: the slimiest, dirtiest, fake news people that are out to
• 0:58
  Speaker 1: get you every second. But that briefing is just a
• 1:02
  Speaker 1: tiny fraction of the job. They don't realize the rest
• 1:05
  Speaker 1: of the day. For a press secretary White House press secretaries.
• 1:08
  Speaker 1: This brutal all day long. You've got all these departments
• 1:12
  Speaker 1: you got to run, you got to meet with everybody
• 1:14
  Speaker 1: all day long, gather all the information, go over everything
• 1:17
  Speaker 1: with everybody. Just it's an intense job. And I guess
• 1:21
  Speaker 1: she just had enough. There's nothing, you know, behind the scenes,
• 1:26
  Speaker 1: intrigue or any She just wanted to leave. She just
• 1:29
  Speaker 1: had her second child, got a young baby at home,
• 1:32
  Speaker 1: wanted to spend more time with her. And again, it's
• 1:34
  Speaker 1: a brutal, intense job. A lot of press secretaries leave
• 1:38
  Speaker 1: after two years. This is a year and a half.
• 1:42
  Speaker 1: And the only surprising part here is normally you would
• 1:45
  Speaker 1: wait till after the midterms and get through that and
• 1:48
  Speaker 1: then do it towards the end of the year. That
• 1:52
  Speaker 1: would be normal. But she just wanted to get out fast.
• 1:55
  Speaker 1: President Trump, you know, loves her, praises her all the time.
• 2:00
  Speaker 2: Good.
• 2:03
  Speaker 1: You know when she goes on television Fox like I mean,
• 2:07
  Speaker 1: they dominate, they dominate. When she gets up there with
• 2:10
  Speaker 1: that beautiful face and those lips that don't stop but
• 2:13
  Speaker 1: up up.
• 2:13
  Speaker 2: Like a little machine gun.
• 2:16
  Speaker 1: Well she is good. Her training is radio. Years in radio,
• 2:19
  Speaker 1: worked for Howie car for years and it did run
• 2:24
  Speaker 1: for Congress once. Expect her to do that again. She
• 2:27
  Speaker 1: will run for something again. She's great with the reporters.
• 2:31
  Speaker 2: Many have a criminal record versus those who are just
• 2:33
  Speaker 2: in the country illegally, all of them because they illegally
• 2:36
  Speaker 2: broke our nation's laws, and therefore they are criminals as
• 2:38
  Speaker 2: far as this administration goes. I know, the last administration
• 2:41
  Speaker 2: didn't see it that way. So it's a big culture
• 2:43
  Speaker 2: shift in our nation to view someone who breaks our
• 2:45
  Speaker 2: immigration laws as a criminal. But that's exactly what they are.
• 2:47
  Speaker 2: They all got a criminal record, and welcome to the
• 2:51
  Speaker 2: if they broke our nation's laws, yes they are criminal.
• 2:54
  Speaker 1: Yeah, now you see, give a nice explanation, logical explanation,
• 2:57
  Speaker 1: and then these vultures. I mean, how many times can
• 3:03
  Speaker 1: you sit through that every day? So a lot of
• 3:05
  Speaker 1: press secretaries don't last more than a year and a half,
• 3:07
  Speaker 1: for two years, But who will replace her? Well, the
• 3:11
  Speaker 1: President's putting together a list of names. High on the list.
• 3:15
  Speaker 1: High on the list is Elena Haba, who was he
• 3:20
  Speaker 1: had nominated her to be the US attorney in New Jersey.
• 3:24
  Speaker 1: Elena Habba high on the list. Breitbart Washington Bureau chief
• 3:29
  Speaker 1: Matthew Boyle. He's on the list, and there's a few
• 3:32
  Speaker 1: others they're looking at. No word yet, there's an assistant
• 3:36
  Speaker 1: press secretaries and all that. They'll do it in the meantime.
• 3:38
  Speaker 1: And remember when she went on attorney leave. A couple
• 3:41
  Speaker 1: of times, they just had cabinet members fill in jd
• 3:45
  Speaker 1: vance one day. Ruby Rubio was brilliant at it. He's
• 3:49
  Speaker 1: a little too busy to do that every day, but
• 3:51
  Speaker 1: Rubio was great. Scott Besstt was great at it. So
• 3:54
  Speaker 1: you'll see a new White House Press secretary. Precist. Caroline
• 3:58
  Speaker 1: Levitt is thirty two. She's married to a guy. He's
• 4:02
  Speaker 1: about sixty. There's a big age difference, big age difference,
• 4:06
  Speaker 1: very wealthy, successful real estate guy, investor. She's married to him,
• 4:10
  Speaker 1: and again, just had a second child, young baby at home.
• 4:15
  Speaker 1: So twenty eight, she's twenty eight. Oh wait, no, wait
• 4:18
  Speaker 1: a minute, twenty eight twenty eight to sixty, that's an
• 4:21
  Speaker 1: even bigger way. That's a thirty two year age difference.
• 4:24
  Speaker 1: That's a big age difference. But I mean it seems
• 4:28
  Speaker 1: like a really good marriage, solid marriage. Now she will
• 4:32
  Speaker 1: run for something in the future. You'll see her run
• 4:35
  Speaker 1: for something in the future. So we'll see who the
• 4:38
  Speaker 1: president picks. It'll it'll probably be a couple of weeks.
• 4:42
  Speaker 1: Will the President run for a third term? He does
• 4:46
  Speaker 1: throw that out. He has hats with Trump twenty twenty
• 4:49
  Speaker 1: eight on it. He loves to throw that out because
• 4:52
  Speaker 1: you crazy sick Trump derangement syndrome people. Yeah, it's okay
• 4:58
  Speaker 1: not to like President Trump, but that Trump arrangement syndrome
• 5:00
  Speaker 1: where you go nuts and start yelling no Kings, Nazi. Oh.
• 5:04
  Speaker 1: He loves to rally up. You know. It's like when
• 5:06
  Speaker 1: you're in the zoo and you like to rattle the
• 5:07
  Speaker 1: cage a little and watch the animal go nuts. That's
• 5:11
  Speaker 1: what he likes to do. So, but people ask him
• 5:14
  Speaker 1: all the time about a third term. Everybody asked me
• 5:17
  Speaker 1: that question, and you know that the law's very strong
• 5:20
  Speaker 1: on that. I'd love to run, but the law's very strong.
• 5:24
  Speaker 1: I get asked by every well, even tonight, they're screaming
• 5:26
  Speaker 1: at the event twenty twenty eight. Now, everybody wants me
• 5:30
  Speaker 1: to do it, but the law's very strong. Yeah, so
• 5:34
  Speaker 1: he'll keep taunting everybody with that. Hey, by the way,
• 5:36
  Speaker 1: he's coming to Long Island tomorrow. If you're in Long Island,
• 5:39
  Speaker 1: if you're going to Long Island Tomorrow's Friday. It's going
• 5:42
  Speaker 1: to be a traffic nightmare at times. He's going to
• 5:46
  Speaker 1: an event that starts at three o'clock. He loves Bruce Blakeman.
• 5:53
  Speaker 1: He would endorse Bruce Blakeman in a second, but I
• 5:56
  Speaker 1: guess they've studied the matter and decided he should not
• 5:59
  Speaker 1: just out and out endorse Bruce Blakeman. If that gould
• 6:02
  Speaker 1: Hell obviously to help a lot of people, but it
• 6:04
  Speaker 1: might hurt with other people. So there will be no
• 6:07
  Speaker 1: formal announcement endorsement, but this will be kind of an endorsement.
• 6:10
  Speaker 1: He's going to come out to peer with Blakeman. He's
• 6:14
  Speaker 1: going to make a big, big speech, gonn be a
• 6:16
  Speaker 1: huge audience, will be like a thousand people in the audience,
• 6:19
  Speaker 1: It'll be It'll be a great speech about law enforcement,
• 6:23
  Speaker 1: about the progress they've made on crime, and about the
• 6:28
  Speaker 1: new FBI report, new crime statistics will come out, so
• 6:31
  Speaker 1: it'll be it'll be a pretty important event. It's going
• 6:34
  Speaker 1: to be. Long Island has a magnificent police Academy police
• 6:38
  Speaker 1: training center in Nassau County. It's just just east of
• 6:44
  Speaker 1: Garden City near Eisenhower Park, so that's where the President
• 6:47
  Speaker 1: will be. He's going to land at Kennedy Airport around
• 6:50
  Speaker 1: two o'clock and then go from Kennedy out to this
• 6:55
  Speaker 1: police academy. Now that's going to be a traffic nightmare.
• 6:58
  Speaker 1: Although I'm not sure if they're going to use a
• 6:59
  Speaker 1: Hello chapter, but most likely to be the motorcade, so
• 7:02
  Speaker 1: there'll be a lot of street closures, and then starts
• 7:05
  Speaker 1: at three o'clock, massive speech, huge crowd. I don't know,
• 7:09
  Speaker 1: figure gets done at four four point thirty. So by
• 7:12
  Speaker 1: the time he's ready to leave, it's going to be
• 7:14
  Speaker 1: rush hour in Long Island, So traffic nightmare tomorrow. He's
• 7:18
  Speaker 1: going to go from that place near Eisenhower Park back
• 7:21
  Speaker 1: to Kennedy Airport, So just beware of that tomorrow if
• 7:25
  Speaker 1: you're on Long Island. Hey, the President with the switching
• 7:30
  Speaker 1: of Air Force One, he was in Turkey, he was
• 7:32
  Speaker 1: going to leave. They said there was a threat against
• 7:34
  Speaker 1: Air Force one, and that's why they switched to the
• 7:38
  Speaker 1: old Air Force one because it had better missile defense
• 7:41
  Speaker 1: systems on it. And I remember they smuggled him out
• 7:44
  Speaker 1: of the Air Force one, put him on a military
• 7:46
  Speaker 1: plane and knuck him out of Turkey. What was the
• 7:48
  Speaker 1: actual threat. It was from Israeli intelligence. Israeli intelligence found
• 7:55
  Speaker 1: out there was a threat against Air Force one that
• 7:58
  Speaker 1: day from a shoulder fired missile, which would be somebody
• 8:02
  Speaker 1: on the ground. It would be as the plane took off,
• 8:05
  Speaker 1: shoulder fired missile. They're saying an unidentified person was actually
• 8:10
  Speaker 1: seen with a shoulder fired missile somewhere in the area.
• 8:13
  Speaker 1: This was the annual annual conference of NATO Heads of
• 8:16
  Speaker 1: State and now US intelligence. The CIA says they don't
• 8:21
  Speaker 1: put a lot of credibility on that threat. But if
• 8:27
  Speaker 1: you had to do, who would you If you had
• 8:30
  Speaker 1: to decide, who would you go with, Israeli intelligence or
• 8:33
  Speaker 1: the CIA. I remember, the CIA has been wrong about
• 8:36
  Speaker 1: a lot of things. Boy have they gotten a lot
• 8:39
  Speaker 1: of stuff wrong through the years, including weapons of mass
• 8:42
  Speaker 1: destruction and all that. Israeli intelligence pretty good. So that's
• 8:48
  Speaker 1: the reason they made the switch. The president snuck off
• 8:50
  Speaker 1: the plane and took a military jet. Now they did
• 8:54
  Speaker 1: let the plane take off with reporters, senior aides if
• 8:57
  Speaker 1: there was such a such a threat on the plane
• 9:01
  Speaker 1: that was being threatened with Scott Bessen, Marco Rubio, Stephen Scheng,
• 9:06
  Speaker 1: a lot of staff, Dan Scavino. Oh, actually no Scavino.
• 9:09
  Speaker 1: You know what, it's fascinating. So with this big threat,
• 9:13
  Speaker 1: the President snuck off to get on a safer plane.
• 9:16
  Speaker 1: He took Pete Hegxas with him and Dan Scaffino, Dan Scavino,
• 9:20
  Speaker 1: Deputy chief of staff. So that was the threat. No
• 9:26
  Speaker 1: more word on whether they actually caught anybody or found anybody. Hey,
• 9:30
  Speaker 1: when it comes to Iran, here's what they're also detecting.
• 9:35
  Speaker 1: You remember, this is Israeli intelligence, US intelligence. Israeli intelligence
• 9:39
  Speaker 1: is very good over there. What they're detecting now is
• 9:43
  Speaker 1: that this is just sort of coasting along now in
• 9:46
  Speaker 1: a stalemate. Although Iran suffering unbelievable suffering with their economy.
• 9:52
  Speaker 1: They're absolutely broken out of money. Inflation is three hundred
• 9:57
  Speaker 1: percent in Iran right now. People are starving. I don't
• 10:00
  Speaker 1: know how they're going to survive like this. But apparently
• 10:03
  Speaker 1: what they're plotting and planning. They've got some missiles left,
• 10:07
  Speaker 1: some that were hit, they buried in an air strike.
• 10:12
  Speaker 1: They're going to dug them out of the ground. What
• 10:14
  Speaker 1: they want to do is just before the midterms, Iran
• 10:18
  Speaker 1: wants to launch a huge counter offensive against the US.
• 10:22
  Speaker 1: Just fire anything and everything. They desperately want the Republicans
• 10:27
  Speaker 1: to lose in the midterms. They want the Democrats to
• 10:30
  Speaker 1: take over Congress, and they're thinking is the Democrats, and
• 10:35
  Speaker 1: they're not wrong about this, will go crazy trying to
• 10:38
  Speaker 1: stop the war once they if if they had control
• 10:41
  Speaker 1: of Congress, they'll pass a million laws that Iran wars
• 10:45
  Speaker 1: illegal and has to stop immediately. They'll impeach President Trump
• 10:49
  Speaker 1: every day of the week. So that's what Iran's counting on.
• 10:52
  Speaker 1: So just before the midterms, they're plotting a massive, aggressive attack.
• 10:57
  Speaker 1: Whatever they got they'll throw at us in an attempt
• 11:01
  Speaker 1: to screw up President Trump for the midterms. A lot
• 11:06
  Speaker 1: of people in the military aware of this and figuring
• 11:10
  Speaker 1: out now how to just crush that and stop that
• 11:14
  Speaker 1: before it happens. Straight of hor Moose will keep that
• 11:17
  Speaker 1: closed for two reasons. One is it completely shuts down
• 11:24
  Speaker 1: a ram's economy. They have absolutely no income or revenue
• 11:27
  Speaker 1: with the Straight ofhr Moose closed. And the other thing
• 11:30
  Speaker 1: is price of oil has not reacted that badly to that.
• 11:34
  Speaker 1: Let me just check again, price oil right now eighty
• 11:37
  Speaker 1: one dollars a barrel. It's a little higher than usual,
• 11:39
  Speaker 1: but that's not real high. That's not bad. That's way
• 11:43
  Speaker 1: below the Joe Biden years. Eighty one dollars of barrel's
• 11:46
  Speaker 1: not bad. I know, it looks like five dollars a
• 11:48
  Speaker 1: gallon here. That's just here in New York or California.
• 11:52
  Speaker 1: That's all state local tax. Rest of the country it's
• 11:55
  Speaker 1: around three ninety four dollars a gallon. So the other
• 11:58
  Speaker 1: reason besides we can withstand this oil wise, is we're
• 12:03
  Speaker 1: the biggest producer of oil in the world. Right now,
• 12:06
  Speaker 1: we are pumping so much oil thanks to President Trump,
• 12:09
  Speaker 1: he opened up the drilling everywhere. We are pumping so
• 12:13
  Speaker 1: much oil that we could never even use it all.
• 12:14
  Speaker 1: We've got more oil than we can ever use, and
• 12:17
  Speaker 1: so we're becoming a big exporter of oil, bigger than
• 12:21
  Speaker 1: Saudi Arabia, bigger. Nobody has more oil than we do,
• 12:24
  Speaker 1: and nobody can export more oil than we do. So
• 12:27
  Speaker 1: with the Straight of hor Moose closed, more and more
• 12:31
  Speaker 1: countries are now buying from US, so it's increasing business
• 12:34
  Speaker 1: into the US. Countries from all over the world are
• 12:37
  Speaker 1: starting to buy from US because they can't get any
• 12:39
  Speaker 1: out of the Straight of hor Moose now, and they're
• 12:40
  Speaker 1: also starting to think it's better to buy from US
• 12:44
  Speaker 1: because the straight of horm Moose, even in the future,
• 12:46
  Speaker 1: will be unreliable, and they better start buying from US.
• 12:49
  Speaker 1: So it's helped the US a lot. Now. The other
• 12:51
  Speaker 1: thing is, within two years there will be no more
• 12:54
  Speaker 1: oil and the straight of hormose, we won't need it anymore.
• 12:58
  Speaker 1: All the Gulf States right now are preparing to totally
• 13:01
  Speaker 1: ditch the straight oh hor moose. They're building pipelines frantically,
• 13:05
  Speaker 1: day and night, building pipelines to other places. So the
• 13:08
  Speaker 1: oil within two years of becoming out of the Gulf
• 13:11
  Speaker 1: States without ever needing the straight oh horn moose, and
• 13:14
  Speaker 1: Iran will never again be able to use it as
• 13:17
  Speaker 1: a threat. Hey CBS, now you know there's this paramount
• 13:20
  Speaker 1: Skydance merger and everybody's not everybody, these crazy left wing politicians,
• 13:30
  Speaker 1: attorney general and all the crazy activists yelling and screaming
• 13:34
  Speaker 1: it'll be a monopoly. Now won't be a monopoly. It'll
• 13:38
  Speaker 1: be like the number five streaming service merging with the
• 13:41
  Speaker 1: number twelve streaming service. It's not going to be a
• 13:43
  Speaker 1: monopoly of any kind. But they're trying to stop this.
• 13:47
  Speaker 1: One reason is CNN is involved in this merger. So
• 13:51
  Speaker 1: I guess they think there'll be some kind of control
• 13:54
  Speaker 1: over it there. But the Attorney General here in New York,
• 13:58
  Speaker 1: Tish James, the Attorney General in California, they're all threatening
• 14:03
  Speaker 1: Paramount sky Dance and coming after them. So what do
• 14:08
  Speaker 1: you do about that if you're if you're the chairman
• 14:11
  Speaker 1: putting together this merger. Well, they did say it's very
• 14:16
  Speaker 1: possible they'll move CBS out of New York once. If
• 14:19
  Speaker 1: they actually moved CBS out of New York state, well,
• 14:23
  Speaker 1: then the New York Attorney General has no jurisdiction and
• 14:26
  Speaker 1: can't do anything. And this talk about moving them out
• 14:29
  Speaker 1: of California too, I don't think that's drastic because if
• 14:33
  Speaker 1: you move them out of CBS and out of California,
• 14:35
  Speaker 1: you save a fortune. It's a lot cheaper to operate
• 14:38
  Speaker 1: somewhere else, a lot cheaper. Do you move it to
• 14:43
  Speaker 1: another state, you're saving a fortune. So it's not a
• 14:47
  Speaker 1: crazy thing to do. And these businesses like CBS, they
• 14:51
  Speaker 1: don't make the money they used to. Viewership is way down,
• 14:54
  Speaker 1: revenue is way down. A CBS course, CBS building on
• 15:00
  Speaker 1: sixth Avenue, and then there's the massive facility fifty seventh
• 15:04
  Speaker 1: and twelfth. You know that you always drive by that
• 15:06
  Speaker 1: CBS building, which is quite a crazy building. I used
• 15:09
  Speaker 1: to work there. It's an old dairy farm, dairy factory
• 15:13
  Speaker 1: or whatever it was. And then they cut two or
• 15:15
  Speaker 1: three buildings together. It's a ridiculous maze. And if you're
• 15:19
  Speaker 1: in the studio and you try to go to the
• 15:21
  Speaker 1: men's room, you got a twist and turn on a
• 15:24
  Speaker 1: million hallways and then nobody can refine their way back.
• 15:27
  Speaker 1: It's like a hospital. They got a paint lines on
• 15:29
  Speaker 1: the floor so you know where to go. So they
• 15:34
  Speaker 1: could close that down, they could move. And now I
• 15:35
  Speaker 1: remember CNN in its early years came out of Atlanta.
• 15:41
  Speaker 1: It's easy to do. It became a big, successful, big
• 15:43
  Speaker 1: national network operating out of Atlanta. You don't have to
• 15:46
  Speaker 1: be in New York. And a lot of people say
• 15:48
  Speaker 1: that CNN was better in Atlanta because it's when they
• 15:53
  Speaker 1: got out of there and came to New York. That's
• 15:55
  Speaker 1: when they got more crazy left wing. You know, when
• 15:58
  Speaker 1: they were broadcasting from Atlanta was in the heartland real America.
• 16:02
  Speaker 1: They were more common sense. When they came to Manhattan,
• 16:06
  Speaker 1: you know, Upper West Side, where CNN was all of
• 16:09
  Speaker 1: a sudden it became more left wing. Everybody hired was
• 16:12
  Speaker 1: more left wing. A lot of that bias came from
• 16:15
  Speaker 1: leaving Atlanta. Hey, so we got a lot to get to.
• 16:17
  Speaker 1: We'll get the crazy mom, Donnie, and a whole lot
• 16:21
  Speaker 1: more just ahead on seven ten WR, Mark Simone here
• 16:25
  Speaker 1: nine to noon every day, nine am to noon every day,
• 16:29
  Speaker 1: right here on seven ten WR
