• 0:48
  Speaker 2: to get to today, So yeah, President Trump. Every day
• 0:54
  Speaker 2: we get the schedule or the night before we get
• 0:57
  Speaker 2: the President's schedule usually comes out nine o'clock at night,
• 1:01
  Speaker 2: and for yesterday, the schedule had all these things, and
• 1:05
  Speaker 2: at three o'clock it said the President participates in a
• 1:08
  Speaker 2: private meeting. Now that's unusual. Usually it says what the
• 1:11
  Speaker 2: meeting is or who the meeting is with. But at
• 1:13
  Speaker 2: three o'clock. It just said the President participates in a
• 1:19
  Speaker 2: private meeting. Now, the Mom Donnie schedule which comes out,
• 1:25
  Speaker 2: didn't say he was going to Washington. It didn't say
• 1:28
  Speaker 2: it just said, well, it just kind of was mysterious.
• 1:31
  Speaker 2: There was I don't know why they kept us quiet.
• 1:34
  Speaker 2: They didn't want anybody to know about it. Now, even
• 1:39
  Speaker 2: within the government, they didn't know he was heading to Washington.
• 1:41
  Speaker 2: He got on a plane and flew down there late
• 1:44
  Speaker 2: morning and took one guy with him. Let me, he
• 1:47
  Speaker 2: took his police detail and everything, but one guy, Morris Katz,
• 1:50
  Speaker 2: who has no actual formal role in city Hall. But
• 1:54
  Speaker 2: they got on a Delta Airlines plane they flew down there.
• 1:57
  Speaker 2: Now they're saying that he was really there to help
• 2:01
  Speaker 2: with a proposed bill by Elizabeth Warren that would curb
• 2:05
  Speaker 2: Wall Street's ability to buy housing. All right, that's the
• 2:07
  Speaker 2: excuse to go down there. But they kept it secret,
• 2:10
  Speaker 2: this meeting with President Trump. And then he showed up
• 2:13
  Speaker 2: in the Oval Office and met with President Trump. And
• 2:18
  Speaker 2: we don't know the contents of the whole meeting. We
• 2:21
  Speaker 2: only know about ten percent, which was it was an
• 2:25
  Speaker 2: exchange two things Mom Donnie wanted to get somebody who'd
• 2:30
  Speaker 2: been arrested by ice. Columbia University student had been detained
• 2:35
  Speaker 2: and arrested by ice. Here visa was no good. Her
• 2:39
  Speaker 2: visa had been revoked, actually had been revoked by Barack Obama,
• 2:43
  Speaker 2: who declared that she was here illegally, and the ICE
• 2:47
  Speaker 2: finally caught up with her and she was arrested and detained.
• 2:50
  Speaker 2: So Mam Donnie wanted her released. The President was able
• 2:55
  Speaker 2: to pick up the phone and just get it done
• 2:57
  Speaker 2: like that, she was released. The other thing is, Mam
• 3:00
  Speaker 2: Donnie wants to apparently he's really serious about housing. He
• 3:04
  Speaker 2: wants to build some kind of housing. And there's a
• 3:07
  Speaker 2: location in Queens where you'd like to build a big
• 3:09
  Speaker 2: housing project. Now would you live in a house built
• 3:12
  Speaker 2: by Zoron, Mom Donnie? Could you imagine that everything would
• 3:16
  Speaker 2: be crooked, broken, faulty? But Donald Trump, would you like
• 3:20
  Speaker 2: to live in a Trump building? They're very well built.
• 3:22
  Speaker 2: He's one of the greatest builders in the world. So
• 3:26
  Speaker 2: he'd like the President Trump to get involved in it.
• 3:28
  Speaker 2: He was looking for money. He first started off about
• 3:31
  Speaker 2: five billion. I remember, if you're the president of the United States,
• 3:34
  Speaker 2: five billion is like nothing. It's like twelve bucks. You
• 3:37
  Speaker 2: can just you find it in the sofa cushion. It's nothing,
• 3:42
  Speaker 2: it's nothing. So he agreed to give him the five billion.
• 3:45
  Speaker 2: Now I imagine he also wanted President Trump's help in
• 3:49
  Speaker 2: building the thing correctly, getting it done. So he walks
• 3:53
  Speaker 2: away with two big favors. Now what is President Trump
• 3:57
  Speaker 2: up to? Why is he being so nice to Mom Donnie. Well,
• 4:00
  Speaker 2: he's grooming him. He's getting developing this father son relationship,
• 4:06
  Speaker 2: this mentor student relationship with Mom Donnie. And I'm sure
• 4:11
  Speaker 2: down the line he knows what he wants out of
• 4:13
  Speaker 2: this guy. He may have already gotten him to agree
• 4:15
  Speaker 2: to some things in the meeting yesterday. But Trump working
• 4:19
  Speaker 2: very slowly on this relationship, getting this guy in his pocket.
• 4:24
  Speaker 2: Which is good. It'll be good for New York. He'll
• 4:26
  Speaker 2: keep a lid on Mom Donnie's craziness. And if Mom
• 4:29
  Speaker 2: Donnie ever goes too far with something, Trump can call
• 4:33
  Speaker 2: in some favors and stop it. So this is good.
• 4:36
  Speaker 2: This is all good President Trump yesterday, after the meeting, I.
• 4:40
  Speaker 3: Feel very confident that he can do very good yet.
• 4:42
  Speaker 2: All right now, he flects to flatter people until he
• 4:45
  Speaker 2: doesn't and then Mom doed what I.
• 4:47
  Speaker 4: Really appreciate about the President is the meeting that we
• 4:49
  Speaker 4: had focused not on places of disagreement, which there are many,
• 4:53
  Speaker 4: and also focused on the shared purpose that we have
• 4:56
  Speaker 4: in serving New Yorkers.
• 4:57
  Speaker 2: All Right, he's getting along. And what does this tell
• 4:59
  Speaker 2: us about these two? Well, in the case of Trump,
• 5:01
  Speaker 2: he's the most powerful man in the world. He loves
• 5:03
  Speaker 2: New York. He's got obviously a real soft spot for
• 5:06
  Speaker 2: New York. His son still lives here in New York,
• 5:08
  Speaker 2: goes to school here, his family, much of his family
• 5:11
  Speaker 2: lives here in New York. So New York's very important
• 5:14
  Speaker 2: to him. It's really his hometown. So he wants what's
• 5:17
  Speaker 2: best for New York. That's one thing. Also, I'm sure
• 5:21
  Speaker 2: he gets a kick out of this mom Donnie. You know,
• 5:23
  Speaker 2: you got to get mom Donnie credit. He's like twelve
• 5:25
  Speaker 2: years old, never had a job, but such a good talker.
• 5:29
  Speaker 2: He gets himself elected mayor of New York City. It's
• 5:32
  Speaker 2: a pretty impressive thing. And like Trump, he's a total
• 5:35
  Speaker 2: amateur politician who came out of no place and was
• 5:39
  Speaker 2: successful in his first run. So he thinks he can
• 5:43
  Speaker 2: work with this kid and maybe maybe straighten him out.
• 5:46
  Speaker 2: And what does Mom Donnie want. Well again, he's a
• 5:49
  Speaker 2: little kid who never had a job, and suddenly he's
• 5:51
  Speaker 2: the mayor of New York, and hey, it's a big
• 5:53
  Speaker 2: deal to just to be in the oval office at
• 5:56
  Speaker 2: the president of the United States. The even bigger deal to
• 5:58
  Speaker 2: develop a good, solid relation, relationship, a partnership with him.
• 6:02
  Speaker 2: So it's a big deal for Mom Donnie. And who
• 6:04
  Speaker 2: knows what Mom Donnie's really up to in the long game.
• 6:06
  Speaker 2: Maybe that's his dream to be president. Maybe was he
• 6:09
  Speaker 2: born in this country? I don't think so, Maybe he
• 6:12
  Speaker 2: can't be president. I don't know. I have to all
• 6:14
  Speaker 2: look into I don't think he was born here. But
• 6:16
  Speaker 2: who knows what he really wants. And it's all good,
• 6:20
  Speaker 2: it's all good. I know you'd rather have Trump called
• 6:23
  Speaker 2: Mom Donnie all kinds of names. But let him get
• 6:26
  Speaker 2: something out of Hey. Remember the horrible they called it
• 6:29
  Speaker 2: a snowball fight. It was an assault on police officers,
• 6:32
  Speaker 2: a horrible, ugly incident. They were able with the surveillance
• 6:36
  Speaker 2: video to identify some of those assaulters. One of them
• 6:40
  Speaker 2: they arrested, were charged him with assault on a police officer.
• 6:43
  Speaker 2: But the problem is it goes to Alvin bragg crazy
• 6:45
  Speaker 2: lunatic da put in there by George Soros. He declined
• 6:51
  Speaker 2: to charge. He would not charge this guy to knocked
• 6:54
  Speaker 2: it down to basically a desk appearance ticket. That's just awful.
• 7:00
  Speaker 2: Couple of these guys they've identified. They're not kids, as
• 7:02
  Speaker 2: Mom Downey claimed. This one is twenty seven years old.
• 7:05
  Speaker 2: Another one was seen a couple of weeks ago assaulting somebody,
• 7:10
  Speaker 2: trying to rob somebody on a subway. So it's I mean,
• 7:14
  Speaker 2: these are guys with rap sheets. These are bad, bad
• 7:17
  Speaker 2: guys who should have been prosecuted over this. But it's
• 7:20
  Speaker 2: not over yet. Who knows, maybe somewhere somebody will prosecute
• 7:24
  Speaker 2: them for something. Oh now, the other big stories the
• 7:28
  Speaker 2: Epstein hearings yesterday was Hillary Clinton today. They grill Bill
• 7:33
  Speaker 2: Clinton now yesterday. And as I've been telling you all along,
• 7:37
  Speaker 2: we got to remember, Republicans stink at hearings. Democrats are
• 7:42
  Speaker 2: great at hearings. They know how to just tear into somebody,
• 7:47
  Speaker 2: just badger them, assault them on camera, and they're great
• 7:51
  Speaker 2: at creating a spectacle on camera. Republicans when they do
• 7:55
  Speaker 2: hearings stink. They get nothing done, nothing works for them.
• 7:59
  Speaker 2: When they do a hearing. So they got Hillary in
• 8:01
  Speaker 2: there and they asked her all kinds of questions and
• 8:05
  Speaker 2: got nothing out of her, and she was It probably
• 8:09
  Speaker 2: helped her in the end, she was doing a press
• 8:11
  Speaker 2: conference before after attacking them for everything.
• 8:14
  Speaker 5: It then got at the end quite unusual because I
• 8:20
  Speaker 5: started being asked about UFOs and a series of questions
• 8:25
  Speaker 5: about Pizzagate, one of the most vile, bogus conspiracy theories
• 8:30
  Speaker 5: that was propagated on the Internet.
• 8:35
  Speaker 2: Yeah, pizza Pizzagate was some kind of pedophile ring Washington, DC,
• 8:39
  Speaker 2: was one of those silly Internet things. But they did
• 8:43
  Speaker 2: ask her all about Epstein. She kept saying over and
• 8:46
  Speaker 2: over again, she did not know Epstein, she never met Epstein,
• 8:49
  Speaker 2: she never heard of Epstein, she never saw Epstein. Nobody's
• 8:53
  Speaker 2: buying this.
• 8:55
  Speaker 6: Now.
• 8:55
  Speaker 2: Gallaine Maxwell, who was the closest thing to Epstein, was
• 9:00
  Speaker 2: at Chelsea Clinton's wedding. When asked about that, she said, well,
• 9:04
  Speaker 2: I don't know. She must have been somebody's date, somebody's
• 9:06
  Speaker 2: plus one, and nobody's buying that. Because Bill Clinton was very,
• 9:11
  Speaker 2: very close, literally literally to Gallaine Maxwell. You can see
• 9:17
  Speaker 2: pictures of them together in swimming pools all over the world,
• 9:22
  Speaker 2: swimming together doing who knows what together. I'm sure it's
• 9:25
  Speaker 2: a long list, but she just said, I don't know
• 9:29
  Speaker 2: the guy. And now they brought up that he funded
• 9:32
  Speaker 2: and helped found the Clinton Global Initiative. She suddenly denies
• 9:36
  Speaker 2: anything to do with that. She said, I really had
• 9:38
  Speaker 2: nothing to do with the Clinton Global Initiative. I wasn't
• 9:40
  Speaker 2: there when I was still in the Senate, so I
• 9:42
  Speaker 2: couldn't get involved. I had nothing to do with it.
• 9:45
  Speaker 2: Nobody's buying any of this. But and they also pointed
• 9:48
  Speaker 2: out that she was in the Senate, you know, she
• 9:52
  Speaker 2: ran for Senate, that Epstein was a major donor writing
• 9:56
  Speaker 2: large checks, you know, not twenty five hundred, he was
• 9:59
  Speaker 2: writing checks for two twenty five fifty thousand, making massive,
• 10:03
  Speaker 2: constant donations to Hillary Clinton. She said she didn't know him. Now,
• 10:07
  Speaker 2: most senators congressman will tell you anytime somebody's over twenty
• 10:12
  Speaker 2: five thousand of the donation, they're aware of it. And
• 10:14
  Speaker 2: that's usually when you get into those big donations. That's
• 10:17
  Speaker 2: usually you know who the person is. You give them
• 10:20
  Speaker 2: a call, they're invited to your events, You shake hands
• 10:23
  Speaker 2: with them, you go to their events if they need you.
• 10:26
  Speaker 2: That's usually the case, so nobody's buying this. She never
• 10:29
  Speaker 2: heard of Jeffrey Epstein, didn't know Jeffrey Epstein. There is
• 10:34
  Speaker 2: some truth to one thing. Bill Clinton might have kept
• 10:37
  Speaker 2: her away from Epstein because Epstein was simply one of these.
• 10:41
  Speaker 2: There's a lot of them. They're big, big donors. They've
• 10:44
  Speaker 2: got what they call check's appeal. They'll write your massive checks.
• 10:48
  Speaker 2: Now in exchange for these massive donations, you got to
• 10:52
  Speaker 2: be nice to them. You got to go to dinner
• 10:54
  Speaker 2: with them, you got to come to their house, you
• 10:57
  Speaker 2: got to talk to them. And all politicians hate the donors.
• 11:03
  Speaker 2: They hate you, pig donors. I hate to break it
• 11:06
  Speaker 2: to you, but as soon as you leave the room,
• 11:08
  Speaker 2: they can't stand you. Now. One of the reasons is
• 11:10
  Speaker 2: the big donor is usually somebody who's brilliant and who
• 11:13
  Speaker 2: has made a fortune in some business. But when they're
• 11:18
  Speaker 2: with the politicians, they decide they want to talk about politics.
• 11:23
  Speaker 2: And when they talk about politics, they're dis babbling idiots.
• 11:26
  Speaker 2: It's like talking to children. Trump calls it baby talk,
• 11:29
  Speaker 2: which is a good name for it. You have to
• 11:31
  Speaker 2: have baby talk with them. So you know, if the
• 11:34
  Speaker 2: brilliant business guy who made a fortune in some industry
• 11:37
  Speaker 2: started telling you about his business, it would be fascinating.
• 11:40
  Speaker 2: You'd be taking notes. When they start talking about politics,
• 11:43
  Speaker 2: they stand like they're twelve years old. Nobody's interested, but
• 11:46
  Speaker 2: they are giving you massive contributions. So you got to
• 11:49
  Speaker 2: pretend that you're listening to them and all they're doing
• 11:52
  Speaker 2: is giving you their opinion on this and that, which
• 11:53
  Speaker 2: was just just silly. It's just so Bill Clinton loves people,
• 11:58
  Speaker 2: he loves socializing, happy to put up with, he enjoys
• 12:01
  Speaker 2: doing it. He really knows how to flatter them. Hillary,
• 12:05
  Speaker 2: like a lot of people, has no interest in this.
• 12:07
  Speaker 2: They can't sit there and pretend to be listening. They
• 12:09
  Speaker 2: don't want to hear it, so she can't do it.
• 12:11
  Speaker 2: So I would imagine that the whole time of Jeffrey Epstein,
• 12:15
  Speaker 2: Bill always said to Hill, I don't worry, I'll talk.
• 12:18
  Speaker 2: I'll go out with him. I'll talk. You don't have
• 12:20
  Speaker 2: to bother with him. I'll take care of him. I'll
• 12:22
  Speaker 2: talk to him, I'll listen to him. So today is
• 12:26
  Speaker 2: the day that Bill will testify. Hearings begin probably after eleven.
• 12:31
  Speaker 2: They usually start late eleven thirty twelve, So Bill will
• 12:35
  Speaker 2: testify today. They're probably gonna ask him some rough questions.
• 12:39
  Speaker 2: I'll probably specifically ask him if he met women through Epstein,
• 12:44
  Speaker 2: if he had sex with the women that he met
• 12:48
  Speaker 2: through Epstein. Now, there's no The big myth of this
• 12:52
  Speaker 2: Epstein stuff was the underage girls. All the women were
• 12:56
  Speaker 2: grown ups and adults. Now, Epstein personally like the under
• 13:00
  Speaker 2: age girls and had a lot of them around and
• 13:02
  Speaker 2: recruited a lot of them. But that was just Epstein.
• 13:04
  Speaker 2: And it looks like Prince Andrew might have liked that too,
• 13:07
  Speaker 2: so he got involved. Maybe Epstein had a friend or
• 13:09
  Speaker 2: two who got involved in that, But ninety nine point
• 13:12
  Speaker 2: nine percent of these guys has nothing to do with
• 13:14
  Speaker 2: young girls. And for most of these guys, they were
• 13:16
  Speaker 2: around Epstein to get money, to get checks, to get donations.
• 13:20
  Speaker 2: All those college presidents and professors, they were getting donations,
• 13:23
  Speaker 2: all those world leaders, they were getting donations. But and
• 13:27
  Speaker 2: the guys that were getting women the bill Gates, the
• 13:29
  Speaker 2: bill Clinton with older women. They weren't looking for underage girls.
• 13:32
  Speaker 2: So the myth is this underage stuff. So if they
• 13:35
  Speaker 2: bring that up, Clinton will probably put that to rest
• 13:39
  Speaker 2: pretty fast. Now, if they ask him if he ever
• 13:41
  Speaker 2: had sex with any of the women, he met through Epstein.
• 13:47
  Speaker 2: I don't know. He's pretty good testifying, although you know
• 13:51
  Speaker 2: he's aged badly. He's aged a lot in molested years.
• 13:54
  Speaker 2: His handshake and his voice trembles. He's more than usual.
• 13:57
  Speaker 2: And they talk squiet, and he used to talk, So
• 14:01
  Speaker 2: I don't know. Now. Gallaine Maxwell would sleep with anybody, anywhere, anytimes.
• 14:09
  Speaker 2: She was happy to sleep with a lot of people.
• 14:12
  Speaker 2: So U and Bill Clinton, the hound dog, I'm sure
• 14:15
  Speaker 2: sniff that out immediately. So I'm sure something happened between
• 14:18
  Speaker 2: him and Gallaine. And you see them late at night
• 14:22
  Speaker 2: in those swimming pools together, so I'm sure they'll ask
• 14:26
  Speaker 2: about that. Now. He can't deny knowing Epstein obviously, because
• 14:30
  Speaker 2: he was traveling all over the world with the guy.
• 14:32
  Speaker 2: He can't deny knowing Gallaine because he's in a million
• 14:35
  Speaker 2: pictures with her half naked in a swimming pool, so
• 14:38
  Speaker 2: in fact, ninety percent naked in a swimming pool. So
• 14:43
  Speaker 2: this could be interesting, although again he can be a
• 14:46
  Speaker 2: very very good witness at covering up. So we'll know
• 14:49
  Speaker 2: later today what happened with that, and we'll see, Hey,
• 14:55
  Speaker 2: we'll take some calls in a minute. Eight hundred three
• 14:58
  Speaker 2: two one zero seven ten is the number eight hundred

  Speaker 2: Well, let's take some calls. Let's go to Suzanne and
• 16:28
  Speaker 2: New Canaan, Connecticut. Suzanne, how you doing.
• 16:30
  Speaker 7: Hey, Mark, thanks for taking my call. And as far
• 16:33
  Speaker 7: as Hillary, Hillary's interpretation of Delaine at Chelsea's wedding, the
• 16:38
  Speaker 7: Secret Service knew every guest attending that wedding, probably months
• 16:41
  Speaker 7: in advance. There's no surprise guests with you know, a
• 16:46
  Speaker 7: special presidential wedding work.
• 16:49
  Speaker 2: Well, she didn't say, she didn't say it was a surprise.
• 16:51
  Speaker 2: She just said she didn't know her and that she
• 16:52
  Speaker 2: came as the guest of somebody else at Plus one.
• 16:56
  Speaker 2: But obviously right, obviously good Bill knew her very very
• 17:00
  Speaker 2: very very well. Let's go to Stuart in South Carolina.
• 17:03
  Speaker 8: Hey, Stuart, Hey, Mark, are you you know do you
• 17:07
  Speaker 8: remember when they were throwing buckets of water on NYPD
• 17:10
  Speaker 8: officers and nothing was being done about it? Yeah, I
• 17:14
  Speaker 8: mean this is the same type of thing throwing snowballs
• 17:17
  Speaker 8: at officers, you know, it's not a funny thing. This
• 17:19
  Speaker 8: isn't assault and the fact that Mamdani just basically tries
• 17:23
  Speaker 8: to neutralize it is just phenomenal. When you weaken the
• 17:27
  Speaker 8: authority of police, you know, you have anarchy. We have
• 17:31
  Speaker 8: what the three hundred and thirty million people in this country.
• 17:34
  Speaker 8: Now there are seven hundred and sixty five thousand uniform
• 17:38
  Speaker 8: police officers in this country for three hundred and thirty
• 17:41
  Speaker 8: million people.
• 17:42
  Speaker 9: That's it.
• 17:43
  Speaker 8: So if people decide that they want to go against
• 17:45
  Speaker 8: the police, we don't have a chance. And that's what's
• 17:48
  Speaker 8: happening in New York City, and he's destroying the morale.
• 17:52
  Speaker 8: And excuse me, I'll give you a real quick story.
• 17:55
  Speaker 8: I used to work Inner City and the judge we
• 17:58
  Speaker 8: had was very liberal, started charging people twenty five dollars
• 18:02
  Speaker 8: for when they assaulted us. And that went on for
• 18:06
  Speaker 8: a while, and these criminals were carried twenty five dollars
• 18:09
  Speaker 8: in their wallet and they said it's worth twenty five
• 18:11
  Speaker 8: dollars to hit us. Well, the suspects started coming in
• 18:15
  Speaker 8: with some injuries. The judge finally got the message and
• 18:20
  Speaker 8: up the fine to a couple hundred dollars. And that's
• 18:22
  Speaker 8: what it's going to take I think it's just it's
• 18:26
  Speaker 8: just unbelievable how they're training the officers, and I cannot
• 18:29
  Speaker 8: believe they put Alvin Bragg back in there. Yeah, that's
• 18:31
  Speaker 8: just phenomenal.
• 18:32
  Speaker 2: Well, that's a problem. We got Alvin Bragg, Stuart, thanks
• 18:35
  Speaker 2: for the call. A great call. You got Alvin Bragg
• 18:37
  Speaker 2: who just decides to dismiss the charges. And you know,
• 18:41
  Speaker 2: there's all kinds of studies out there's a Heather McDonald's
• 18:43
  Speaker 2: study and other studies showing that when when you start
• 18:47
  Speaker 2: doing this to police, they start to back off. You know,
• 18:49
  Speaker 2: they don't do as many stops. They don't patrolers aren't
• 18:52
  Speaker 2: they They don't want to get into all this mess,
• 18:55
  Speaker 2: so they back off. And when they back off, you
• 18:57
  Speaker 2: get more crime, and you get a lot more crime
• 18:59
  Speaker 2: and a lot more people get killed. So Alvin Bragg
• 19:02
  Speaker 2: and those types actually actually caused people to get killed.
• 19:06
  Speaker 2: People and the people they think they're protecting, especially in
• 19:10
  Speaker 2: the rougher neighborhoods of the inner city, they're the ones that
• 19:13
  Speaker 2: get killed as a result of being lacks on crime.
• 19:17
  Speaker 2: Let's go to Mara in Nevada. Mara, how you doing.
• 19:20
  Speaker 10: Good morning, Mark Child, Vincent. Mark, I'm almost ashamed to
• 19:24
  Speaker 10: speak after that wonderful call from Stuart. But here's why
• 19:28
  Speaker 10: I called. I was born in New York City, and
• 19:31
  Speaker 10: in Manhattan you say how are you? But in South Brooklyn,
• 19:34
  Speaker 10: where I was raised, we say how are you? And
• 19:37
  Speaker 10: a predominantly Italian neighbors saying camp Mark, Now.
• 19:41
  Speaker 2: You live in Nevada. What do they say there?
• 19:44
  Speaker 10: Oh? Oh, please, don't even ask that for ologo. But
• 19:47
  Speaker 10: here is why I called Hillary Clinton much has spent
• 19:50
  Speaker 10: one hundred thousand dollars on a facelip. She looks beautiful.
• 19:54
  Speaker 2: She spent one hundred thousand faces. Hey, I'm looking at
• 19:56
  Speaker 2: it right now. She might be entitled to a refund.
• 19:59
  Speaker 2: Look at this face. Oh, she says, an old prune.
• 20:02
  Speaker 10: You're kidding me. I think she's gonna run again twenty
• 20:05
  Speaker 10: twenty eight. She fixed up the faith.
• 20:08
  Speaker 2: Well, yeah, that's true. She probably is thinking of running.
• 20:11
  Speaker 2: And she's like that crazy old woman in Sunset Boulevard
• 20:14
  Speaker 2: who always thinks she can make a comeback. But Mara,
• 20:17
  Speaker 2: thanks for calling. Let's go to Vincent and Brooklyn. Vincent,
• 20:20
  Speaker 2: how you doing, Good.
• 20:22
  Speaker 9: Morning, Mark, I'm okay, Good morning, Marry, Good morning, Steward.
• 20:25
  Speaker 9: Mark Stewart is one hundred. Right back in the day
• 20:30
  Speaker 9: after when they took you down the Central Book and
• 20:33
  Speaker 9: we had a fingerprinted you and everything and took your
• 20:35
  Speaker 9: monk shots was down in the cellar. A person like
• 20:39
  Speaker 9: that man that Alvium Bragg let go would accidentally fall
• 20:44
  Speaker 9: down the stairs. If you get my.
• 20:45
  Speaker 2: Twist, I got you interested. Curtis would say, they get
• 20:49
  Speaker 2: a wooden shampoo.
• 20:51
  Speaker 9: Mark. This has to stop. I hope Bruce Blakeman gets
• 20:57
  Speaker 9: this is the reason why Blue has to get elected
• 21:02
  Speaker 9: so he could fire this album Bread and this is
• 21:05
  Speaker 9: another reason why Jessica Tish has to stand up, has
• 21:10
  Speaker 9: to go to Alvin Bragg and say, either you stop
• 21:13
  Speaker 9: this or I'm gonna lead a public protest with the
• 21:17
  Speaker 9: men and women in Blue, and then I'm gonna quit Mark.
• 21:21
  Speaker 9: Yesterday they interviewed one of these so OB councilman, Lincoln Wrestler,
• 21:28
  Speaker 9: who said Alan was just a snowball fight. He's some
• 21:32
  Speaker 9: Finocchio from that represents Williamberg. About a month ago, I
• 21:37
  Speaker 9: saw him in the street. He was I don't know,
• 21:40
  Speaker 9: he was in my neighborhood. One of his lackeys. I
• 21:43
  Speaker 9: got right in his face and I said, I use
• 21:46
  Speaker 9: the word that I can't use on the radio right
• 21:50
  Speaker 9: in his face. I'm sorry, Mark, I told him. I
• 21:57
  Speaker 9: says you're nothing but f in communist, I told him,
• 22:03
  Speaker 9: and he giggled. He giggled, Lucky elect the sissy. But
• 22:07
  Speaker 9: this is this has got to stop because, as Stewart says,
• 22:11
  Speaker 9: pretty soon the men and women in Blue are just
• 22:14
  Speaker 9: gonna ignore these things and it's gonna get worse and
• 22:18
  Speaker 9: worse and worse and worse. What's it? What's it gonna
• 22:22
  Speaker 9: take somebody cap and a cop and then Alvin Bragg
• 22:26
  Speaker 9: is good to reduce it to a first degree misdemeanor
• 22:30
  Speaker 9: or something.
• 22:31
  Speaker 2: Absolutely right, Vincent, great call, Thanks for calling. He's got
• 22:34
  Speaker 2: a good point there. If you get Bruce Blakeman as governor,
• 22:36
  Speaker 2: which we need to do, Bruce Blakeman would be the
• 22:37
  Speaker 2: greatest governor of New York. Now, the believe it or not,
• 22:40
  Speaker 2: the district attorneys all work for the state. They're not
• 22:42
  Speaker 2: the city. It's not a city thing. That's why there's
• 22:45
  Speaker 2: no term limits on the district attorney. But the governor
• 22:48
  Speaker 2: can remove a district attorney. So it happened in Florida.
• 22:52
  Speaker 2: DeSantis had one of those Alvin Bragg type idiots who
• 22:55
  Speaker 2: was letting everybody loose, all the criminals out, and DeSantis
• 22:58
  Speaker 2: removed him and put in a real attorney, so a
• 23:01
  Speaker 2: real governor could do that here in New York. Remove
• 23:04
  Speaker 2: Alvin Bragg, put in a real da. Hey, we'll we'll
• 23:08
  Speaker 2: talk to Roger Friedman next. A lot of good stuff
• 23:11

  Speaker 4: I'm great, Good morning, send wary and I can't believe it.
• 23:40
  Speaker 2: March begins a Sunday, right or sooner or Monday?
• 23:46
  Speaker 9: Yeah?
• 23:47
  Speaker 11: Hey, yeah, I never asked you.
• 23:49
  Speaker 2: We're talking about Jeffrey Epstein. You must have known Epstein
• 23:53
  Speaker 2: or met him.
• 23:53
  Speaker 4: No, No, I saw him once. I never met him.
• 23:58
  Speaker 4: I might have nodded at him, I never I know.
• 24:00
  Speaker 4: I didn't shake hands you some event.
• 24:03
  Speaker 2: I hate to break it to you. You're in the
• 24:04
  Speaker 2: Epstein files. I don't know if you know that. I'm
• 24:07
  Speaker 2: in there too, I know. I but you're in there
• 24:10
  Speaker 2: because somebody, well somebody wrote him. Peggy Single wrote him
• 24:13
  Speaker 2: and said, would you like to meet Roger Friedman? So
• 24:16
  Speaker 2: it's nothing.
• 24:16
  Speaker 11: She said, come join us for dinner.
• 24:18
  Speaker 4: Yeah, And I remember that dinner where I said to Peggy,
• 24:21
  Speaker 4: I don't think we should do that, and we didn't.
• 24:22
  Speaker 11: He never showed up.
• 24:28
  Speaker 4: I saw him once with a very tall, thin girl
• 24:32
  Speaker 4: with long brown hair and a dress that stopped at
• 24:37
  Speaker 4: her waist. Yes, And I had no idea how old
• 24:41
  Speaker 4: she was. I didn't think that she was under eighteen.
• 24:44
  Speaker 4: I thought she was probably eighteen or nineteen. You know,
• 24:49
  Speaker 4: I didn't know how old she was. He was a
• 24:52
  Speaker 4: terrible guy. I'm just I just put up a story
• 24:55
  Speaker 4: on show his Horror and one about him. He was
• 24:58
  Speaker 4: a hypercontriac, obsessed with cancer and he thought that he
• 25:02
  Speaker 4: had cancer, and he got involved with this bizarre alternative
• 25:06
  Speaker 4: cancer hospital in California.
• 25:08
  Speaker 11: And if you go on the website I have.
• 25:10
  Speaker 4: I pulled out a lot of stuff from the files
• 25:14
  Speaker 4: talking about the bizarre agreement he signed with them. I mean,
• 25:18
  Speaker 4: he lived in a strange world, and he had his
• 25:21
  Speaker 4: finger in every pie. He had his finger literally in
• 25:24
  Speaker 4: every pie, I mean cancer. He was funding cancer research.
• 25:29
  Speaker 4: You know, he was involved in so many different things
• 25:32
  Speaker 4: that you can't believe. And it's amazing. He was like
• 25:35
  Speaker 4: a cancer that ran through the society.
• 25:38
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I've been reading the files a lot. He was
• 25:40
  Speaker 2: one of those guys who thought he was a political expert.
• 25:43
  Speaker 2: He didn't know what the hell he was talking about,
• 25:45
  Speaker 2: and he thought he was a medical expert, and he
• 25:46
  Speaker 2: didn't know what all he was talking about. Yeah, he
• 25:48
  Speaker 2: just keep writing checks to everybody, so they'd sit there
• 25:51
  Speaker 2: and nod and pretend they were listening to him. But
• 25:54
  Speaker 2: did you ever actually talk to me? You know, he
• 25:56
  Speaker 2: always dressed it kind of look trying to dress like
• 25:59
  Speaker 2: he was the duco win. Then when he talked to you,
• 26:01
  Speaker 2: go how are you? You know what that voice?
• 26:03
  Speaker 11: It didn't work.
• 26:06
  Speaker 4: Now, the one time I saw him, he was wearing
• 26:08
  Speaker 4: just like, you know, like a workshirt kind of thing
• 26:11
  Speaker 4: in jeans. He wasn't really dressed up. But I didn't
• 26:15
  Speaker 4: really talk to him. I kind of looked at him like,
• 26:17
  Speaker 4: what the hell are you doing here? And I knew
• 26:21
  Speaker 4: I didn't want anything to do with But this was
• 26:23
  Speaker 4: already late in the game. You know, let's say this
• 26:26
  Speaker 4: was twenty sixteen or twenty seventeen. And you know, as
• 26:30
  Speaker 4: I've been saying to people, remember Howard Rubinstein of course, yeah,
• 26:35
  Speaker 4: the great PR guy. He was Jeffrey's PR person, and
• 26:40
  Speaker 4: he was also the person who represented the Post, the
• 26:43
  Speaker 4: New York Post. So Howard would block the Post from
• 26:50
  Speaker 4: running anything really bad about Epstein for years. So we
• 26:54
  Speaker 4: didn't really know in New York the extent of what
• 26:57
  Speaker 4: he was doing until it was too late. When he
• 27:00
  Speaker 4: was doing when he was doing his crimes in Palm Beach, Florida,
• 27:06
  Speaker 4: the news never really traveled up here. I mean it
• 27:09
  Speaker 4: was sort of like it was a vague or distant.
• 27:12
  Speaker 4: It was in the Palm Beach Post, but who cared?
• 27:14
  Speaker 4: And in New York he wasn't getting the bad publicity
• 27:18
  Speaker 4: he should have been getting. But that's because he has
• 27:22
  Speaker 4: so much help from Rubinstein keeping everything out of the press.
• 27:27
  Speaker 2: Roger Fittman, let's talk about somebody else we knew, JFK Junior.
• 27:30
  Speaker 2: Everybody's talking about Hi now because of this new mini series.
• 27:33
  Speaker 2: Have you watched it?
• 27:34
  Speaker 4: Oh god, yeah, it's it's terrible. It's really terrible. It's
• 27:40
  Speaker 4: not accurate, it's terrible. It's a. It's exploitive. I saw
• 27:46
  Speaker 4: Lisa Depello, who worked for JFK at George Magazine, wrote
• 27:53
  Speaker 4: something fun yesterday online I think on her sub stack
• 27:57
  Speaker 4: where she said she started watching it started laughing. So
• 28:00
  Speaker 4: at least she has a sense of humor. But you know,
• 28:05
  Speaker 4: it's a bizarre thing to do to people, to do
• 28:08
  Speaker 4: these movies where such a tragic thing happened and the
• 28:13
  Speaker 4: story has been told over and over and over. This
• 28:16
  Speaker 4: was completely unnecessary. I have no idea what the ratings are. Oh,
• 28:19
  Speaker 4: but it was silly huge, That's what I thought. This
• 28:21
  Speaker 4: thing is huge, huge, It's huge. It's like the most
• 28:23
  Speaker 4: popular streaming thing right now. Everybody's talking, Oh wow. Yeah,
• 28:28
  Speaker 4: I thought it was the silliest thing I ever saw.
• 28:32
  Speaker 4: And I knew John a little bit.
• 28:33
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 28:34
  Speaker 11: I never knew Carolyn, but I knew John a little
• 28:36
  Speaker 11: bit and he was a great guy.
• 28:37
  Speaker 2: Yeah, well I knew him too. And this is not
• 28:39
  Speaker 2: accurate this show. You may love it, but it's not
• 28:41
  Speaker 2: the real story at all. Hey, it looks like Paramount
• 28:48
  Speaker 2: is going to take over Warner Brothers, Discovery, Netflix is
• 28:51
  Speaker 2: bout out, So what does that mean? Paramount whatever, it's
• 28:54
  Speaker 2: going to be the biggest conglomerate.
• 28:55
  Speaker 4: In one family, yea, one family, David and Larry Ellison.
• 29:00
  Speaker 11: The father is Larry, the son is David.
• 29:02
  Speaker 4: They're going to own HBO, CNN, CBS, They're going to
• 29:07
  Speaker 4: own all of this media. And uh, you know, Larry Ellison,
• 29:13
  Speaker 4: the father is in business with Donald Trump, and the son,
• 29:18
  Speaker 4: David Ellison, has already said that he would make it
• 29:21
  Speaker 4: make CBS more conservative, and in doing that, he's taken
• 29:25
  Speaker 4: to Tony Jakoppel's CBS Evening News, and.
• 29:27
  Speaker 11: The ratings have collapsed. Yeah, collapsed, viewers have left.
• 29:32
  Speaker 2: No, that's whatever. You change the format, even in the
• 29:34
  Speaker 2: radio station, you lose all your audience. You've got to
• 29:36
  Speaker 2: go get a new one. But have you noticed all
• 29:38
  Speaker 2: three evening all three of them look alike. They're identity,
• 29:44
  Speaker 2: they're identical. They're identical, and the correspondence on their shows
• 29:54
  Speaker 2: look like them too.
• 29:56
  Speaker 4: So it's just it's just like an army of white
• 29:58
  Speaker 4: guys with dark hair, all telling the same story.
• 30:02
  Speaker 11: All night long.
• 30:03
  Speaker 4: And I was a big fan of Nora O'Donnell. I'd
• 30:07
  Speaker 4: like to see her come back somehow, but it's kind
• 30:10
  Speaker 4: of crazy. And I really like Lesterholt, but it's kind
• 30:15
  Speaker 4: of crazy what's happened. But you know what's happening is
• 30:18
  Speaker 4: the news. The audience for the news is shrinking anyway. Yeah,
• 30:21
  Speaker 4: there's not much audience for that, for the nighttime news
• 30:24
  Speaker 4: in the first place, because people are consuming a lot
• 30:28
  Speaker 4: of their okay, thank you. The people are consuming the
• 30:33
  Speaker 4: news on TikTok, on Instagram, in little clips. You know,
• 30:38
  Speaker 4: it's a much different world than we were used to
• 30:40
  Speaker 4: where you sat for half an hour and watched the news.
• 30:43
  Speaker 4: Now I watch Tony Jakoppel just because I don't like him,
• 30:46
  Speaker 4: and I watched the first fifteen minutes. After that, I
• 30:49
  Speaker 4: can't take anymore.
• 30:50
  Speaker 2: Hey, before we run out of time. We had this
• 30:52
  Speaker 2: terrible two blizzards, snow the weather was what happened. How
• 30:56
  Speaker 2: is Broadway affected in the movies and all of that by.
• 30:59
  Speaker 4: This, Well, they were Sunday Saturday, and Sunday was a
• 31:03
  Speaker 4: terrible day for movies in theater and particularly Broadway.
• 31:07
  Speaker 11: Sunday.
• 31:08
  Speaker 4: You know, they canceled all the night time, all the
• 31:09
  Speaker 4: seven o'clock shows, and even it even went into Monday too,
• 31:14
  Speaker 4: where people didn't show up.
• 31:16
  Speaker 11: So Broadway took a big hit.
• 31:17
  Speaker 4: They were down I think two million dollars this past
• 31:20
  Speaker 4: week from the week before because of all of that,
• 31:23
  Speaker 4: and uh, and the movies took a hit.
• 31:26
  Speaker 11: Two although.
• 31:28
  Speaker 4: The big movies like Crime one oh one and Goat,
• 31:33
  Speaker 4: they still they still pulled an audience. So the box
• 31:37
  Speaker 4: office wasn't too bad for movies, but it was. It's
• 31:39
  Speaker 4: bad for theater because you people are not going to
• 31:41
  Speaker 4: schlep into New York. It's to crawl over black ice,
• 31:45
  Speaker 4: you know, and dirty snow to see a show, do
• 31:48
  Speaker 4: you know what I mean.
• 31:48
  Speaker 2: Yeah, restaurants were empty too. It was a huge economic
• 31:52
  Speaker 2: loss both those blizzards.
• 31:53
  Speaker 4: But three, it was a good night to see a
• 31:56
  Speaker 4: show that you couldn't get into. Yeah, if you lived
• 32:00
  Speaker 4: in town and you could take the subwords of the show,
• 32:04
  Speaker 4: you could see something that was sold out previously.
• 32:07

• 34:01
  Speaker 2: Well, in just a few minutes, it's about it's a
• 34:04
  Speaker 2: little after eleven o'clock. A few minutes. Bill Clinton will
• 34:07
  Speaker 2: show up to testify, give a deposition the committee investigating
• 34:11
  Speaker 2: Jeffrey Epstein. They're doing this in Chappaqua. They have actually
• 34:15
  Speaker 2: rented the committee has rented the Chappaqua Performing Arts Center.
• 34:21
  Speaker 2: Very nice. It's not exactly Radio City, but it's very nice.
• 34:24
  Speaker 2: And they're going to do it there, and they'll be
• 34:27
  Speaker 2: the Hillary Clinton grilling went on for hours and hours yesterday,
• 34:32
  Speaker 2: and this is of course with Bill Clinton will be
• 34:34
  Speaker 2: much much more to talk about. So this could take
• 34:36
  Speaker 2: all day. This could be a six to seven hour thing,
• 34:39
  Speaker 2: grilling Bill Clinton, and he will Hillary's whole thing about it.
• 34:45
  Speaker 2: I don't know Jeffrey Epstein. I ever met Jeffrey Epstein,
• 34:48
  Speaker 2: which nobody was buying. Bill Clinton can't do that. Obviously,
• 34:51
  Speaker 2: they were together quite a bit and traveling all over
• 34:54
  Speaker 2: the world together, so they'll have to detail all of that.
• 34:58
  Speaker 12: You know.
• 34:58
  Speaker 2: Also, when Bill Clinton was president, Jeffrey Epstein visited him
• 35:03
  Speaker 2: in the White House seventeen times, stayed over Lincoln bedroom
• 35:07
  Speaker 2: that held So first of all, it's hard to imagine
• 35:10
  Speaker 2: seventeen visits to the White House sleeping over all that
• 35:13
  Speaker 2: stuff that he wouldn't have met Hillary. Hard to believe that.
• 35:18
  Speaker 2: Now some of the Democrats on the committee, they're yelling
• 35:22
  Speaker 2: and screaming about they want Donald Trump to testify. Trump
• 35:25
  Speaker 2: would have a good story to tell because he was
• 35:27
  Speaker 2: the first one that really caught on to Epstein. And
• 35:31
  Speaker 2: way back, way back in the beginning all of this,
• 35:33
  Speaker 2: in mar A Lago, Epstein made a lot of money.
• 35:36
  Speaker 2: He was a very wealthy guy, and then when he
• 35:38
  Speaker 2: came to Palm Beach he joined mar A Lago started
• 35:41
  Speaker 2: throwing money around. Anytime you run a resort or a
• 35:43
  Speaker 2: club and there's a new member with a ton of
• 35:46
  Speaker 2: money spending it like crazy. You're the owner, you're the manager.
• 35:50
  Speaker 2: You always go meet the guy and you're always nice
• 35:51
  Speaker 2: to him. You always see a loaf, he's there, you
• 35:53
  Speaker 2: go greet him, and that's basically Epstein and Trump they
• 35:56
  Speaker 2: became They were never friends, but they became very friendly.
• 36:00
  Speaker 2: They both like pretty women, they both like parties, so
• 36:04
  Speaker 2: they were together a lot of them. And then one
• 36:06
  Speaker 2: day Epstein, the member at mar A Lago, hits on
• 36:10
  Speaker 2: a young girl, a young girl working in the locker room,
• 36:14
  Speaker 2: and it turned out she was the daughter of a member.
• 36:16
  Speaker 2: Trump gets wind of this, has Epstein thrown out of
• 36:19
  Speaker 2: the club, revokes his membership, tosses him out, never talks
• 36:23
  Speaker 2: to him again, started to warn people about Epstein, even
• 36:27
  Speaker 2: me back then. He was one of the couple of
• 36:29
  Speaker 2: people that warned me stay away from Epstein or going
• 36:31
  Speaker 2: near that guy. So he'd have a pretty good story
• 36:34
  Speaker 2: to testify to. So Democrats looking for something out of him,
• 36:40
  Speaker 2: it's not going to happen. They're also calling for Howard
• 36:43
  Speaker 2: Lutnick to resign, that he should leave and descrip. It
• 36:47
  Speaker 2: turns out all they were able to figure out is
• 36:49
  Speaker 2: that one day Howard Lutnik and the way he knew Epstein,
• 36:54
  Speaker 2: Lutnik bought a house on East seventy first Street, a townhouse,
• 36:58
  Speaker 2: his wife and kids. They lived in this townhouse. Well,
• 37:00
  Speaker 2: the townhouse next door literally attached to their townhouse. The
• 37:04
  Speaker 2: next door neighbor was Jeffrey Epstein. That's how they met.
• 37:07
  Speaker 2: Lutnik was a big Wall Street guy, can Or Fitzgerald,
• 37:11
  Speaker 2: and of course what he always does, Epstein was chasing
• 37:15
  Speaker 2: after Lutnik, inviting the party, everything. And then Lutnik was
• 37:19
  Speaker 2: going to be on his boat down in the Caribbean
• 37:21
  Speaker 2: right near Epstein's island, and Epstein begging him to come
• 37:24
  Speaker 2: to lunch. So finally one day he's, yeah, we'll stop
• 37:27
  Speaker 2: in for lunch, and the boat pulled up to Epstein's
• 37:30
  Speaker 2: island and for one hour they had lunch. But Lutnik
• 37:33
  Speaker 2: had with him his wife, his four kids, he had
• 37:36
  Speaker 2: two nannies, he had another couple with him. They spent
• 37:39
  Speaker 2: an hour on the island having lunch. I don't think
• 37:41
  Speaker 2: you have to resign for having lunch with somebody. Now
• 37:45
  Speaker 2: here's some sickening stuff. Everything is in those Epstein files. Everything,
• 37:52
  Speaker 2: every email he ever sent, every text he ever wrote,
• 37:55
  Speaker 2: His credit card bills are in there. Everything. So they've
• 38:00
  Speaker 2: been looking through the credit card bills and they see
• 38:04
  Speaker 2: he was paying a lot of storage facilities around the country.
• 38:10
  Speaker 2: He had storage facilities all over the place. So they've
• 38:13
  Speaker 2: gone and opened up those storage facilities to see what
• 38:15
  Speaker 2: he had in there. He had a number of these
• 38:20
  Speaker 2: storage lockers all over the place, and apparently he had
• 38:22
  Speaker 2: an army of private eyes taking stuff to the storage
• 38:27
  Speaker 2: facilities and putting him in there. But here's some of
• 38:30
  Speaker 2: what they found in there. What was he having? What
• 38:33
  Speaker 2: was he filling these storage facilities with sex slave manuals,
• 38:38
  Speaker 2: dozens of address books, and a huge porn stash. When
• 38:44
  Speaker 2: they say porn stash, now, I remember this is back then.
• 38:47
  Speaker 2: You kids today you wouldn't understand this because it's all
• 38:50
  Speaker 2: free and it's all on a computer. But back then,
• 38:52
  Speaker 2: porn was on VHS tapes and DVDs. Now there are
• 38:57
  Speaker 2: kids listening on No what a VHS?
• 39:00
  Speaker 3: What is that?
• 39:03
  Speaker 2: It wasn't that easy your kids today. You had to
• 39:05
  Speaker 2: go somewhere and get porn on a VHS. You had
• 39:08
  Speaker 2: to Did you rent it? I can't remember. I guess
• 39:11
  Speaker 2: you could rent it right like any VHS, or you'd
• 39:14
  Speaker 2: buy it. But you had these VHS tapes with the
• 39:17
  Speaker 2: porn on it. Also, Epstein had a lot of nude photos,
• 39:22
  Speaker 2: apparently of women he'd been with many of these victims,
• 39:25
  Speaker 2: and box loads of sex toys were also uncovered storage
• 39:32
  Speaker 2: locker and Palm Beach was one of at least six
• 39:34
  Speaker 2: units scattered across the US. They found him on the
• 39:38
  Speaker 2: credit card statements. Private eyes were paid to move this
• 39:41
  Speaker 2: stuff around. You gotta oh, you know it. Here's what
• 39:45
  Speaker 2: it was. Remember he was arrested in two thousand and
• 39:48
  Speaker 2: five and charged with sex with underage girls. He was
• 39:52
  Speaker 2: convicted all that stuff, So it was after that. I
• 39:55
  Speaker 2: guess he got nervous about having all this porn and
• 39:57
  Speaker 2: all this stuff, so he had private eyed moving it
• 40:00
  Speaker 2: around to these storage facilities. Pretty disgusting. Anyway, Clinton, we'll
• 40:06
  Speaker 2: know by the end of the day what happened. In
• 40:07
  Speaker 2: this testimony. Clinton will have to explain why he was
• 40:11
  Speaker 2: traveling all over the world with Epstein, why he used
• 40:14
  Speaker 2: Epstein to found and fund the Clinton Global Initiative, why
• 40:19
  Speaker 2: he invited Epstein to the White House seventeen times while
• 40:22
  Speaker 2: he was president. He Duncan Donuts announces. Oh, actually, they're
• 40:29
  Speaker 2: only trying it out in two states so far. This
• 40:32
  Speaker 2: is the new thing. It's called the bucket of coffee
• 40:35
  Speaker 2: forty eight ounces. You know how big that is. It's
• 40:37
  Speaker 2: a bucket. It's for one person. You know, you realize
• 40:43
  Speaker 2: how fat people are nowadays. Everybody's a beast nowadays. You know,
• 40:46
  Speaker 2: if you go back and watch movies from the nineteen
• 40:48
  Speaker 2: fifties or the nineteen sixties, everybody's nice and thin. And
• 40:51
  Speaker 2: you know why, look carefully at the nineteen fifties movies
• 40:55
  Speaker 2: and sixties movies. Portions were tiny back then compared to now.
• 40:59
  Speaker 2: They were small. Everything was small. Coffee cups were small,
• 41:03
  Speaker 2: the plates were small. Watch scenes where they're eating. It's
• 41:05
  Speaker 2: small portions. That's the way you're supposed to eat. They
• 41:09
  Speaker 2: ate that way back then, and they were all nice
• 41:11
  Speaker 2: and thin. And then through the years, everybody in the
• 41:15
  Speaker 2: food world started increasing portion sizes. Everything got bigger, candy bars, everything,
• 41:21
  Speaker 2: everything you ordered everything, you just started eating more and
• 41:26
  Speaker 2: portion size got larger. Starbucks and dunkin Donuts comes along.
• 41:30
  Speaker 2: They got regular coffee, a large, medium, extra large. They
• 41:36
  Speaker 2: didn't have that back then. And now they're going to
• 41:39
  Speaker 2: go even worse with dunkin Donuts with the bucket, the
• 41:42
  Speaker 2: forty eight ounce bucket of coffee. They're trying it out
• 41:45
  Speaker 2: in two states. And you know, McDonald's is working on
• 41:49
  Speaker 2: a new hamburger. They're trying it out in some place.
• 41:51
  Speaker 2: It's called the Big Arch. It's like a big Mac,
• 41:54
  Speaker 2: but three times the size, absolutely enormous. So again it's
• 41:59
  Speaker 2: just gonna get people more and more obese. As Ozentpic
• 42:02
  Speaker 2: tries to catch up with all of this, they speaking
• 42:05
  Speaker 2: of food Zora and Mamdani. Remember that free grocery store, Well,
• 42:10
  Speaker 2: apparently he was serious about it. He wants to start
• 42:13
  Speaker 2: trying it. He wants to start by spending seventy million
• 42:17
  Speaker 2: on his free grocery stores. Now, remember the ideas, the
• 42:21
  Speaker 2: groceries are free, But it's seventy million, so that means
• 42:25
  Speaker 2: taxpayers are paying for it. It's not free. It means
• 42:29
  Speaker 2: all of us have to pay for these free groceries.
• 42:32
  Speaker 2: And didn't he just say New York was broke, that
• 42:34
  Speaker 2: we got a terrible budget deficit, that we don't have
• 42:36
  Speaker 2: any money. So why seventy million for the free grocery stores?
• 42:40
  Speaker 2: Makes absolutely no sense. Hey, Chuck Schumer, you know how
• 42:45
  Speaker 2: they always tell you about President Trump's approval rating. They
• 42:47
  Speaker 2: always claim it's low, it's not they rig those polls.
• 42:50
  Speaker 2: But Chuck Schumer's approval rating, you know what it is.
• 42:55
  Speaker 2: You never hear about this. Nobody reports this, Chuck Schumer's
• 42:58
  Speaker 2: approval rating twenty seven seven percent. This is a liberal,
• 43:03
  Speaker 2: left wing blue Democrat in New York. Only twenty seven
• 43:07
  Speaker 2: percent think he's doing a good job. So not good.
• 43:11
  Speaker 2: The latest and the Guthrie case, it looks like they're
• 43:14
  Speaker 2: kind of winding down. They don't know what else to
• 43:16
  Speaker 2: do now. They still have three hundred to four hundred agents, FBI,
• 43:19
  Speaker 2: federal agents on the case.
• 43:22
  Speaker 3: What can they do?
• 43:22
  Speaker 2: Well, they came out with that new million dollar award.
• 43:26
  Speaker 2: It had been fifty thousand, then one hundred thousand. Finally
• 43:29
  Speaker 2: they offered a million dollar reward, and I guess this
• 43:32
  Speaker 2: is why they didn't want to do that in the
• 43:33
  Speaker 2: first place. Once the million dollar reward came out, they
• 43:37
  Speaker 2: got fifteen hundred tips. Fifteen hundred tips. Now you know
• 43:41
  Speaker 2: what it takes in manpower to run those all down.
• 43:45
  Speaker 2: That could take a while, but that's all they can
• 43:46
  Speaker 2: do right now. Hey, there's a you know, the White
• 43:51
  Speaker 2: House ballroom. The President wants to build the most magnificent
• 43:55
  Speaker 2: ballroom in America at the White House. The problem is
• 43:59
  Speaker 2: they got the East Room of the White House, which
• 44:02
  Speaker 2: if you look at it on TV or in pictures,
• 44:04
  Speaker 2: it looks pretty elegant, but it's tiny it can only
• 44:07
  Speaker 2: hold like one hundred and twenty people. It's small. So
• 44:10
  Speaker 2: whenever they had a big event, especially with a big
• 44:13
  Speaker 2: world leader at the White House, they had to do
• 44:15
  Speaker 2: it out on the lawn in a tent, you know,
• 44:18
  Speaker 2: like somebody in having a party in their backyard in
• 44:23
  Speaker 2: Long Island. It was embarrassing, especially for world leaders who
• 44:26
  Speaker 2: live in these palaces that come to America for a
• 44:29
  Speaker 2: big presidential dinner and they're in a tent in the
• 44:32
  Speaker 2: backyard of the White House, you know, standing on wet grass.
• 44:36
  Speaker 2: It was embarrassing. So President Trump wants to build a ballroom,
• 44:40
  Speaker 2: and he is the best builder in the world right
• 44:43
  Speaker 2: now of ballrooms. Nobody in the world has built more ballrooms.
• 44:48
  Speaker 2: He builds them all over the place. In every hotel.
• 44:50
  Speaker 2: He has the mar A Lago ballroom, a spectacular The Washington,
• 44:54
  Speaker 2: d c. Hotel he built quite a ballroom there. So
• 44:58
  Speaker 2: he knows what he's doing. So the White House one
• 45:01
  Speaker 2: was going to be instead of one hundred and twenty
• 45:03
  Speaker 2: in the Eastern was going to be four hundred. Then
• 45:04
  Speaker 2: it was eight hundred. Now I think it's up to
• 45:06
  Speaker 2: fifteen hundred. It's a magnificent ballroom. He's going to get
• 45:10
  Speaker 2: it done for four hundred million. If the government tried
• 45:14
  Speaker 2: to do it, it'd be six billion. He'll do it
• 45:16
  Speaker 2: for four hundred million. He'll do it fast. If the
• 45:20
  Speaker 2: government built it, it would take probably five six years. He'll
• 45:23
  Speaker 2: get it built in five six months. It's going to
• 45:25
  Speaker 2: move very fast. Now. The only thing is everybody, you know,
• 45:29
  Speaker 2: crazy Washington, the swamp. They were trying to stop it.
• 45:33
  Speaker 2: So the Landmark Provision whatever commission blocked it.
• 45:36
  Speaker 11: That was it.
• 45:38
  Speaker 2: Well they went to court and they won that. Now
• 45:41
  Speaker 2: there's another Washington, DC Swamp National Preservation Landmark, whatever the
• 45:45
  Speaker 2: hell it is, went to court to stop the ballroom.
• 45:48
  Speaker 2: Well the judge ruled yesterday and threw out their lawsuits.
• 45:53
  Speaker 2: So that's it. They're no more legal hurdles. Construction can begin.
• 45:57
  Speaker 2: They've already cleared the whole space. They down whatever they
• 46:01
  Speaker 2: had to knock down, dug a hole in the ground,
• 46:03
  Speaker 2: construction equipment. You can see it's sitting there. But now
• 46:06
  Speaker 2: there's no more legal hurdles. It's over. They can start building.
• 46:10
  Speaker 2: So starting Monday, you're going to see all kinds of
• 46:14
  Speaker 2: construction going on. And you watch how fast that ballroom
• 46:17
  Speaker 2: goes up. It's going to be absolutely amazing. It looks
• 46:20
  Speaker 2: too big to me though, the building, the outside of it,
• 46:23
  Speaker 2: I mean it's almost bigger than the White House, but
• 46:26
  Speaker 2: the inside will be spectacular. It's so big that they
• 46:28
  Speaker 2: can do any kind of event there. They'll even be
• 46:30
  Speaker 2: able to hold from now on the presidential inaugurations in
• 46:35
  Speaker 2: that ballroom. It's going to be something. You know, they've
• 46:39
  Speaker 2: always had a big problem because it's Washington, DC, and
• 46:44
  Speaker 2: in January it can get cold. And remember this last
• 46:47
  Speaker 2: inauguration it was like five below zero and snowing, so
• 46:50
  Speaker 2: they had to move inside to the Capitol Rotonda. Well,
• 46:53
  Speaker 2: from now on you never have to worry again. They'll
• 46:55
  Speaker 2: be in this magnificent ballroom. And it's hard to imagine
• 46:58
  Speaker 2: that if a Democrat gets elected he could get away
• 47:01
  Speaker 2: with tearing down the ballroom. I don't think he could.
• 47:04
  Speaker 2: Nobody could. It would be impossible to justify doing it.
• 47:07
  Speaker 2: So you'll see it go up very very fast. Hey,
• 47:11
  Speaker 2: as we mentioned before, there's this bidding war for Warner Brothers.
• 47:15
  Speaker 2: Discovery WBD, Netflix bowed out yesterday, so Paramount will get
• 47:21
  Speaker 2: Warner Brothers.
• 47:22
  Speaker 12: Now.
• 47:22
  Speaker 2: The reason they want this, it's a big company. One
• 47:26
  Speaker 2: reason they want it is Netflix and all these streaming services.
• 47:30
  Speaker 2: They got to make movies and TV series, you need
• 47:34
  Speaker 2: production facilities. So one of the reasons they want a
• 47:37
  Speaker 2: Warner Brothers Discovery. It comes with the Warner Brothers Movie Studio,
• 47:41
  Speaker 2: which is the biggest studio in Hollywood. That'll be a
• 47:43
  Speaker 2: big help to Paramount production wise. And the other thing
• 47:48
  Speaker 2: they'll get is HBO HBO Max, so they'll put that
• 47:52
  Speaker 2: into Paramount, which will make it a bigger streaming service.
• 47:56
  Speaker 2: They'll also get CNN. They don't really want it. It
• 47:59
  Speaker 2: doesn't mean anything. It's a tiny little network with twelve viewers.
• 48:03
  Speaker 2: But they claim they'll fix it up. I think that
• 48:06
  Speaker 2: was one of the promises they made Donald Trump, that
• 48:08
  Speaker 2: they'll fix CNN, make it more neutral, more balanced, more moderate,
• 48:12
  Speaker 2: not a crazy left wing propaganda site. So it looks

  Speaker 2: No, that's the property. I forget it's Sunnyside. They've already
• 49:02
  Speaker 2: got the property.
• 49:03
  Speaker 13: Okay, because over there the surrounding communities would give them
• 49:07
  Speaker 13: a lot of a lot of problems. Sorry, thanks for

  Speaker 2: Apology, you got the wrong person men's hockey.
• 49:34
  Speaker 12: The men's hockey teams apologized yesterday that they shouldn't have
• 49:38
  Speaker 12: laughed when Donald Trump.
• 49:40
  Speaker 2: Was saying when he made the joke about the women's.
• 49:44
  Speaker 11: Team, Yes, what was your take on that?
• 49:47
  Speaker 2: I don't have a take on it. It's just normal
• 49:48
  Speaker 2: that business as usual. He made some joke about it.
• 49:51
  Speaker 2: I guess now I got to invite the women. It's
• 49:52
  Speaker 2: just a harmless joke. But with the Trump de arrangement syndrome,
• 49:56
  Speaker 2: anything he has was anything he says was an incredibly racist,
• 50:00
  Speaker 2: sexist awful. Uh, it was just it was just a
• 50:04
  Speaker 2: harmless joke. It meant absolutely nothing. Let's go to John

• 50:20
  Speaker 14: is hysterical. I mean with the stuffter that guy wrote.
• 50:24
  Speaker 14: I was laughing out loud reading it.

  Speaker 2: You talk about the book, the book called laugh Lines. Yeah,
• 50:29
  Speaker 2: it's a story of his career in comedy.
• 50:31
  Speaker 11: Laugh Lines.
• 50:32
  Speaker 14: It is hysterical. And some of these jokes that you've
• 50:35
  Speaker 14: heard over and over, he wrote these jokes that are timeless,
• 50:39
  Speaker 14: they're classic jokes that these comedians used all over.
• 50:42
  Speaker 4: It is really a great read.
• 50:44
  Speaker 15: It's it's hysterical.
• 50:45

  Speaker 2: funny book called Laughline, So go get it. Let's go
• 50:59
  Speaker 2: to Mario in New Jersey. Mario, how you doing?
• 51:03
  Speaker 6: Oh good morning, Mark, thanks for taking my call and
• 51:06
  Speaker 6: joy your show. Listen regarding people being skinny years ago,
• 51:10
  Speaker 6: I was brought up in the fifties, sixties and seventies,
• 51:13
  Speaker 6: and I got to.
• 51:14
  Speaker 2: Take you to grow up thirty thirty.
• 51:17
  Speaker 6: You grew up and listen, the food was just was
• 51:21
  Speaker 6: asn't as available as it is today. A good example
• 51:24
  Speaker 6: is when you go to gas up, you gass up.
• 51:28
  Speaker 6: Chances are ninety percent of the time that gas station's
• 51:30
  Speaker 6: got a food mark there. So what do you do?
• 51:32
  Speaker 6: You gas up? Well, I was gassing up. You want
• 51:34
  Speaker 6: to nail and you get some goodies.
• 51:36
  Speaker 9: It's just a yeah, I know.
• 51:37
  Speaker 2: But go check the record, Go look at get some
• 51:39
  Speaker 2: magazines or something like from the nineteen fifties and sixties.
• 51:42
  Speaker 2: You'll notice everything is smaller. The food portions are smaller,
• 51:45
  Speaker 2: the coke can is smaller, the candy bar is smaller.
• 51:48
  Speaker 2: Everything with smaller people ate less back. Then let's go
• 51:52
  Speaker 2: to Joe in Long Island. Joe, how you doing?
• 51:56
  Speaker 16: By Martroom morning, I'm really retired U of City Police officer.
• 52:00
  Speaker 16: I just wanted to comment on the uniforms that the
• 52:03
  Speaker 16: officers are wearing today. Back in my day, we wore
• 52:06
  Speaker 16: tailored uniforms with brass buttons that seemed to command more
• 52:09
  Speaker 16: respect than the way these young officers are wearing today.
• 52:13
  Speaker 16: I realized the uniforms are probably more comfortable, but it
• 52:16
  Speaker 16: doesn't seem to command the same.
• 52:18
  Speaker 2: Well, you know, there's all kinds of studies. Yeah, you
• 52:20
  Speaker 2: didn't wear the blue light blue shirt. You wear the
• 52:22
  Speaker 2: black jacket over it, dark dark blue, but it looked black.
• 52:26
  Speaker 2: All kinds of study show when you're wearing black or
• 52:28
  Speaker 2: very dark blue, it signals authority. That's why in some
• 52:31
  Speaker 2: restaurants they put the waiters in black. It signals confidence
• 52:35
  Speaker 2: and authority, and psychologically that's what it does. So you're right,
• 52:39
  Speaker 2: you're right, they should go back to black. Uniforms looked
• 52:42
  Speaker 2: a lot better. That's why a guy like Donald Trump.
• 52:46
  Speaker 2: Go look at Trump earlier in the seventies, eighties, nineties,
• 52:50
  Speaker 2: were in all different color suits and jackets, but then
• 52:54
  Speaker 2: from like two thousand and nine, only black suits, dark
• 52:57
  Speaker 2: dark blue, black suits. You never see him in a
• 52:59
  Speaker 2: great or a light gray suit. Black signals authority.
• 53:03
  Speaker 12: It works.
• 53:04
  Speaker 2: Let's go to Tom and Queen's Tom.
• 53:06
  Speaker 15: How you doing, Hey, Mark, good morning. So what do
• 53:10
  Speaker 15: you think Bill's gonna have? What is the answer gonna
• 53:13
  Speaker 15: be when they pull out the picture of the portrait
• 53:15
  Speaker 15: of him in a blue dress that was in the
• 53:18
  Speaker 15: entrance of Epstein's house.
• 53:19
  Speaker 2: Yeah, it was pretty weird. Epstein had a portrait done,
• 53:22
  Speaker 2: a painting of Bill Clinton in a blue dress wearing
• 53:25
  Speaker 2: high heels, and they're gonna probably ask him about it,
• 53:29
  Speaker 2: and he'll say, well, you know, that's the first I
• 53:32
  Speaker 2: ever saw was what was in the news. I never
• 53:34
  Speaker 2: saw it when I was there, and I guess it
• 53:37
  Speaker 2: means he didn't like me, he was making fun of me,
• 53:39
  Speaker 2: he was making He'll try to use it, probably to
• 53:42
  Speaker 2: create the illusion that they were unfriendly, that they weren't friends.
• 53:46
  Speaker 2: Let's go to Bruce in Long Island. Bruce, how you doing?
• 53:49
  Speaker 9: Huh?
• 53:50
  Speaker 16: Hi?
• 53:50
  Speaker 2: Mark doing well?
• 53:51
  Speaker 6: Hope the same for you.
• 53:52
  Speaker 2: Great show, Mark, Mark.
• 53:53
  Speaker 6: Quick question? Is the case against Latsia James ever going.
• 53:57
  Speaker 11: To be or to trial?
• 53:58
  Speaker 2: Yeah, it's a good question. I know. The problem is
• 54:03
  Speaker 2: you got to find a normal judge that you're getting
• 54:06
  Speaker 2: these crazy left wing New York judges and they keep
• 54:09
  Speaker 2: tossing the case out, keep trying to bring it back.
• 54:12
  Speaker 2: But she looks pretty sleazy with those real estate transactions.
• 54:16
  Speaker 2: Everything's a primary residence and it's not her, it's some relative.
• 54:20
  Speaker 2: And every relative she's got in there seems to have
• 54:23
  Speaker 2: a criminal record of some kind or another. But you
• 54:28
  Speaker 2: just remember the words that John Lennon. Time wounds all heals,
• 54:33
  Speaker 2: So eventually, eventually they'll get her. Oh, when we come back,
• 54:36
  Speaker 2: Buck Sexton will be with us. You know. Buck and
• 54:38

  Speaker 2: So far.

  Speaker 17: We hit the number four on the New York Times
• 55:46
  Speaker 17: bestseller list for a debut nonfiction, which is pretty solid.
• 55:51
  Speaker 17: And honestly, I just really want people to go get
• 55:54
  Speaker 17: Manufacturing Delusion.
• 55:56
  Speaker 3: Everyone that's reading it. I'll tell you, Mark, it's funny.
• 55:59
  Speaker 17: The biggest reaction action that I'm getting from people is oh, wow,
• 56:02
  Speaker 17: it's actually a good book with real research that I
• 56:05
  Speaker 17: learned things and has worked my time.
• 56:08
  Speaker 3: Okay, yeah, I'll take it. You know that's right.
• 56:10
  Speaker 2: Well, it's it's fascinating this book, Manufacturing Delusion. You know,
• 56:14
  Speaker 2: we think that the media is a little slanted the
• 56:17
  Speaker 2: biased about it, but you lay out that these are
• 56:19
  Speaker 2: techniques and tricks that have been used by Stalin, the
• 56:22
  Speaker 2: Chinese and the Jihadis. And what made you start on
• 56:26
  Speaker 2: this book.
• 56:27
  Speaker 17: Well, you know, Mark, it actually comes out of my
• 56:31
  Speaker 17: looking around at America, at America and the world around
• 56:35
  Speaker 17: us after COVID and thinking to myself, how did so
• 56:39
  Speaker 17: many people go completely insane here? And how is it
• 56:42
  Speaker 17: that when I was living in Midtown Manhattan, there was
• 56:44
  Speaker 17: a couple in my building that didn't leave their apartment
• 56:47
  Speaker 17: for six months, that I saw people in my lobby
• 56:50
  Speaker 17: wearing full hazmat suits, and that, you know, the Biden
• 56:55
  Speaker 17: administration was telling everybody, and Fauci was telling everybody to
• 56:58
  Speaker 17: get shot numbers six, seven, and eight after already getting
• 57:02
  Speaker 17: I said, what happened here? So instead, this isn't a
• 57:05
  Speaker 17: COVID book, to be clear, but that was just the
• 57:06
  Speaker 17: genesis of Hold on a minute. There's something that can
• 57:10
  Speaker 17: be done. There's a way that propaganda, there's a way
• 57:14
  Speaker 17: that minds can be manipulated that has to have a playbook.
• 57:18
  Speaker 3: There have to be tactics to this.
• 57:20
  Speaker 17: And in my research into that, I said, well, well,
• 57:23
  Speaker 17: you know, I'm an ex CIA guy, and there's some
• 57:25
  Speaker 17: old CIA stories of my mark that I've never talked
• 57:28
  Speaker 17: about before, my first employment in Nigeria, my first deployment
• 57:31
  Speaker 17: to Iraq, my first We're also dealing with crazies, jihadis, phrases,
• 57:36
  Speaker 17: which phrases in a different context. And I learned about
• 57:39
  Speaker 17: the radicalization cycle from that experience firsthand, so I had
• 57:44
  Speaker 17: some expertise in radicalization from the CIA. But then I
• 57:48
  Speaker 17: go back to the beginnings of the historicy. I say,
• 57:50
  Speaker 17: who is the best at this the best at this
• 57:53
  Speaker 17: evil thing of controlling minds? And it's Nazi Germany, Stalinist
• 57:58
  Speaker 17: Russia is China, And I go to the origins of
• 58:03
  Speaker 17: what we actually call brainwashing, which the Chinese called thought
• 58:07
  Speaker 17: reform and which was called menticide by a vary ues
• 58:11
  Speaker 17: theemed information warfare psychiatrists for the Second World War. So
• 58:16
  Speaker 17: I break this down into different tactics marks, so each
• 58:21
  Speaker 17: chapter someone can go and read.
• 58:22
  Speaker 3: They can just jump in pretty much.
• 58:23
  Speaker 17: And reach chapter three, they can reach chapter eight, or
• 58:26
  Speaker 17: they can read the whole thing start to finish, and
• 58:28
  Speaker 17: you'll learn about how people manipulate, how systems, how governments,
• 58:33
  Speaker 17: how individuals manipulate your mind and make you believe crazy things.
• 58:38
  Speaker 2: Yeah. Now, at the same time, the media goes totally
• 58:41
  Speaker 2: corrupt about ten eleven years ago as Trump comes along,
• 58:44
  Speaker 2: totally biased. If we had real media, honest journalism, could
• 58:50
  Speaker 2: these manipulators get away with that stuff today?
• 58:53
  Speaker 3: Oh No, I mean they're a huge part of it.
• 58:55
  Speaker 17: In the back third of the book is really about propaganda,
• 59:00
  Speaker 17: disinformation and methods of control that are used.
• 59:04
  Speaker 3: Well, look, CNN, you.
• 59:06
  Speaker 17: Know, Jake Papper can't lock us all in cells and
• 59:10
  Speaker 17: make us write force confessions like they could in Maoist China.
• 59:13
  Speaker 17: But they can engage in, for example, forced phobia, which
• 59:18
  Speaker 17: I point out. You know, why was there this, you know,
• 59:21
  Speaker 17: the COVID death counter was up on the CNN screen?
• 59:24
  Speaker 17: Or why is it that they tell us that racism
• 59:28
  Speaker 17: is such a This is very important for everyone. I
• 59:30
  Speaker 17: want people to understand the history of this mind manipulation.
• 59:33
  Speaker 17: So you learn that in the book, But it always
• 59:35
  Speaker 17: takes it to the present day. It takes us to
• 59:38
  Speaker 17: the gender transgender madness of right now, it takes us
• 59:43
  Speaker 17: to BLM. I mean, Mark, how is it that when
• 59:46
  Speaker 17: they would ask average Democrats how many unarmed black men
• 59:50
  Speaker 17: do you think the cops kill a year during the
• 59:52
  Speaker 17: whole BLM madness right to two point zero BLM right
• 59:56
  Speaker 17: around twenty twenty twenty twenty one, and they would say
• 1:00:00
  Speaker 17: five to fifteen thousand was the most common responstitute. See Mark,
• 1:00:04
  Speaker 17: the number was like fifteen. You know, how do they
• 1:00:07
  Speaker 17: make people believe this stuff? CNN and others fire hose
• 1:00:11
  Speaker 17: of falsehood. That's one of the primary techniques I get
• 1:00:15
  Speaker 17: into that, Like how CNN does this?
• 1:00:17
  Speaker 6: I think so.
• 1:00:18
  Speaker 3: I think that's what people would really take away from it.
• 1:00:20
  Speaker 2: Yeah, it's a great book. It's called Manufacturing Delusion. You
• 1:00:23
  Speaker 2: should go to Amazon and order it right now. Manufacturing
• 1:00:27
  Speaker 2: Delusions by Buck Sexton. And I'm looking at Amazon. But
• 1:00:30
  Speaker 2: you got all these badges all of it, Amazon Bestseller,
• 1:00:33
  Speaker 2: Amazon Choice Amazon. That's pretty good. And if you've been
• 1:00:37
  Speaker 2: on a book tour doing all those stops.
• 1:00:40
  Speaker 17: Well, I've been very inundated and very grateful for it
• 1:00:44
  Speaker 17: with people who want me to go on and do
• 1:00:47
  Speaker 17: things on their shows. And I've obviously I've been on Fox,
• 1:00:49
  Speaker 17: and I've been on newsbacks, I've been on fantastic radio
• 1:00:52
  Speaker 17: programs like Yours, which whenever I want to think of home,
• 1:00:56
  Speaker 17: which for me will always be New York. I listen
• 1:00:58
  Speaker 17: to Mark on WOR reminds me of my life in
• 1:01:01
  Speaker 17: New York City. But you know, it's really Mark. As
• 1:01:04
  Speaker 17: you know now we're in such a virtual world where
• 1:01:08
  Speaker 17: you just want to get the message out there online
• 1:01:10
  Speaker 17: and out there from.
• 1:01:11
  Speaker 3: The big platforms to everybody.
• 1:01:13
  Speaker 17: But you know, it's been really gratifying to see that
• 1:01:17
  Speaker 17: when you put a book out that makes sense to people,
• 1:01:20
  Speaker 17: manufacturing delusion, people will learn history and manufacturing delusion. People
• 1:01:24
  Speaker 17: will learn tactics of what's going on around them. And
• 1:01:27
  Speaker 17: if you want to know, you know why you're crazy.
• 1:01:30
  Speaker 17: Neighbor Larry from Secaucus believes insane stuff that Nancy Pelosi says.
• 1:01:36
  Speaker 3: This book will scientifically and historically explain that to you.
• 1:01:40
  Speaker 17: And so I think that's why Manufacturing Delusion is such
• 1:01:43
  Speaker 17: a good value proposition for people and why people should
• 1:01:46
  Speaker 17: get the book because it really has important stuff to
• 1:01:49
  Speaker 17: know and important takeaways.
• 1:01:50
  Speaker 2: Yeah, it's one of the most important subjects in the
• 1:01:52
  Speaker 2: world right now. Buck Sexton's book is on Amazon Manufacturing Delusion.
• 1:01:56
  Speaker 2: But you're right, that's the most That's where we have
• 1:02:00
  Speaker 2: the most problem with it. Your friends, your neighbors, your relatives,
• 1:02:03
  Speaker 2: they'll argue with you till you're blowing. They're blue in
• 1:02:06
  Speaker 2: the face, that the Russian collusion was real, that Trump
• 1:02:08
  Speaker 2: was a pedophile on Epstein Island, and.
• 1:02:12
  Speaker 3: So what can you do all of that.
• 1:02:14
  Speaker 2: You can't get through to these people. They think MSNBC
• 1:02:16
  Speaker 2: is a news network. They think Jake Tapper is a
• 1:02:18
  Speaker 2: news anchor, what can you do about it?
• 1:02:20
  Speaker 17: Well, you know, the first step mark is understanding what
• 1:02:24
  Speaker 17: the other side is doing and also knowing what you're
• 1:02:27
  Speaker 17: up against with somebody.
• 1:02:28
  Speaker 3: And this is what I tell people.
• 1:02:30
  Speaker 17: If someone's going to tell you the sky is purple,
• 1:02:33
  Speaker 17: you can sit there all day and point at it.
• 1:02:35
  Speaker 3: It's not going to change anything.
• 1:02:36
  Speaker 17: And you need to be able to identify when somebody
• 1:02:39
  Speaker 17: has reached that point where on an issue, someone may
• 1:02:41
  Speaker 17: be very normal on many things, but they could have
• 1:02:44
  Speaker 17: been so propaganda, so brainwashed, brainwashed. Did you point out
• 1:02:47
  Speaker 17: there are still some people who think that Jake Tapper
• 1:02:50
  Speaker 17: is a really throwing Jake under the bustle out today,
• 1:02:52
  Speaker 17: but that he's an objective news anchor or that anyone
• 1:02:56
  Speaker 17: at seeing that is I mean, not to even get
• 1:02:57
  Speaker 17: on anyone individually. They're all fraudulently claiming to be non
• 1:03:01
  Speaker 17: partisan and not to be Democrat operators, but a manufacturing delusion.
• 1:03:05
  Speaker 17: What I also get into is how you can be
• 1:03:08
  Speaker 17: aware of when this is being done to you, because
• 1:03:11
  Speaker 17: this is to fight against this. It always starts with
• 1:03:13
  Speaker 17: an individual recognizing the tactics, recognizing brainwashing, forced phobia, identity construction.
• 1:03:21
  Speaker 17: And you're like what are these things? Buck at manufacturing Delusion,
• 1:03:24
  Speaker 17: You'll understand. You'll see these things in the media. You'll understand.
• 1:03:29
  Speaker 17: And look, I'm an XCIA guy. So some people go, oh, well,
• 1:03:31
  Speaker 17: how can we trust you about this stuff? Well, because
• 1:03:33
  Speaker 17: I know about this stuff. I understand how governments do this,
• 1:03:37
  Speaker 17: I understand how information operations go. So in Manufacturing Delusion,
• 1:03:42
  Speaker 17: it's like I give you the playbook of the enemy,
• 1:03:44
  Speaker 17: the enemy that wants to control your mind, and then
• 1:03:47
  Speaker 17: at the end I walk you through here's how you
• 1:03:49
  Speaker 17: see this stuff coming. And the basic principle you always
• 1:03:53
  Speaker 17: have to keep in mind is live not by lies.
• 1:03:57
  Speaker 17: The great quote from Souls and Nets in the Soviet Dissident.
• 1:04:00
  Speaker 17: Anytime someone's lying to you or wants you to lie,
• 1:04:03
  Speaker 17: wants you to say that Bob is actually Susie, wants
• 1:04:06
  Speaker 17: you to say that yes, or all of our cops
• 1:04:10
  Speaker 17: are racist or something, then you know you're on guard.
• 1:04:13
  Speaker 17: Then you know you have to put up the defenses
• 1:04:15
  Speaker 17: because they're trying to manufacture a delusion in you. And
• 1:04:19
  Speaker 17: that's why this book is so important, and that's why
• 1:04:21
  Speaker 17: I really want everyone and you know, you got an
• 1:04:23
  Speaker 17: audience of readers.
• 1:04:24
  Speaker 11: They listen to you.
• 1:04:25
  Speaker 17: So they're smart people with good taste. You got an
• 1:04:27
  Speaker 17: audience of readers here. It's a great book to buy,
• 1:04:29
  Speaker 17: great book to get a couple copies of. You can
• 1:04:31
  Speaker 17: give it to your crazy neighbor Larry, and maybe then
• 1:04:34
  Speaker 17: he won't be so crazy. But please go out there everyone.
• 1:04:37
  Speaker 11: I really, I have not come.
• 1:04:38
  Speaker 17: Across anybody who's given me a shot here and actually
• 1:04:41
  Speaker 17: read this book, who has not found it? Really, it's
• 1:04:44
  Speaker 17: it's quick, it's two hundred and forty pages, give or take.
• 1:04:47
  Speaker 17: It's meant to be read in a weekend, and it's
• 1:04:49
  Speaker 17: meant to be something that people can reference and go
• 1:04:51
  Speaker 17: back to. You know, if you're watching MS now, which
• 1:04:54
  Speaker 17: mark is you know? See and I said, hey, to
• 1:04:57
  Speaker 17: change the name because their brand is so stinky. You
• 1:05:00
  Speaker 17: can say, hold on, I remember a manufacturing delusion?
• 1:05:03
  Speaker 3: What's that thing?
• 1:05:03
  Speaker 17: Fire hose of falsehood. Oh, it doesn't even have to
• 1:05:07
  Speaker 17: be a sophisticated lie. It just has to be repeated
• 1:05:10
  Speaker 17: so many times from so many places that it undermines
• 1:05:14
  Speaker 17: my ability to assess what is true. Oh that's a tactic.
• 1:05:18
  Speaker 17: That's a manufactured delusion. And you go back and you
• 1:05:21
  Speaker 17: see it's right there in the book. Like I say,
• 1:05:22
  Speaker 17: the playbook of the Mind Controllers laid out for you
• 1:05:26
  Speaker 17: so that you can fight back against this madness.
• 1:05:28
  Speaker 3: And you'll also learn some cool history.
• 1:05:30
  Speaker 17: You'll learn about the origins of the Assassin culture, learn
• 1:05:32
  Speaker 17: about Pavlov's dogs and what really happened with them, not
• 1:05:35
  Speaker 17: what people tell you in grammar school, but what really
• 1:05:38
  Speaker 17: Padlov was up to in those labs in the Soviet Union.
• 1:05:41
  Speaker 17: So it's just got a lot packed into a very
• 1:05:44
  Speaker 17: readable package.
• 1:05:45
