  Speaker 2: a lot of stuff to go over. We'll get to
• 0:16
  Speaker 2: all of that's freezing cold today and it's going to
• 0:19
  Speaker 2: stay that way for most of the week. Yeah, that's
• 0:24
  Speaker 2: is that allergies, the cold weather allergies. It doesn't go away.
• 0:29
  Speaker 2: So we got a lot to talk about. We'll get

• 0:33
  Speaker 2: get to Narco Boats, We'll get to George Sloppadopolis. We'll
• 0:38
  Speaker 2: get to Mom Donnie and his latest crazy ideas. We'll
• 0:41
  Speaker 2: get to the pipe bomber and how they caught him.
• 0:43
  Speaker 2: It's fascinating. Actually, we'll get to the Jets. Interesting, what's
• 0:50
  Speaker 2: going on with it? This is going to be a
• 0:52
  Speaker 2: big movement for the rest of the season. Anyway, we'll
• 0:56
  Speaker 2: we'll talk about all of that and more. Be nice
• 0:59
  Speaker 2: to your Democratic friends. I know they're angry and yelling
• 1:02
  Speaker 2: and screaming. I don't know if I'll have time to
• 1:04
  Speaker 2: do it today, but we're at some point we're gonna
• 1:06
  Speaker 2: I'm gonna explain Trump derangement syndrome in detail. After talking
• 1:11
  Speaker 2: to a number of psychiatrists and psychologists who've explained exactly
• 1:15
  Speaker 2: what it is. There are other types of this same disease.
• 1:20
  Speaker 2: In this case it's Trump derangement syndrome. There are other types.
• 1:24
  Speaker 2: And also for the past week or two, we've seen
• 1:27
  Speaker 2: hegxith derangement syndrome as they go nuts trying to get
• 1:30
  Speaker 2: rid of Pete Hegsith. Now, why it's not even anything
• 1:35
  Speaker 2: really personal. They just want to get Trump somehow. So
• 1:38
  Speaker 2: whenever they see something, anything, one little branch of the
• 1:42
  Speaker 2: tree that looks like it's gonna break, the break off
• 1:45
  Speaker 2: any limb of the tree, anything, so they think Hexith
• 1:48
  Speaker 2: is vulnerable. He's not not. In any way. He hasn't
• 1:52
  Speaker 2: done anything that anybody would consider wrong in the Trump administration.
• 1:56
  Speaker 2: Signal gait was a complete ridiculous piece of trivia, absolute nonsense.
• 2:01
  Speaker 2: That's where he used that signal app for communication. It
• 2:04
  Speaker 2: was approved by the Pentagon. It was Pentagon policy to
• 2:07
  Speaker 2: use it. If you shouldn't use it, well you could
• 2:09
  Speaker 2: take a look at that and maybe not use it,
• 2:10
  Speaker 2: but that's not a scandal. If you're watching the Sunday
• 2:15
  Speaker 2: shows this week, the opening segments, you might have said,
• 2:19
  Speaker 2: is this a rerun. Is this from months ago? They
• 2:21
  Speaker 2: were talking about signal gate using the signal but no, no,
• 2:25
  Speaker 2: they just latch onto something and they won't let it go.
• 2:28
  Speaker 2: You know, these Sunday shows, the idea used to be
• 2:31
  Speaker 2: they go over the news of the week. They didn't
• 2:33
  Speaker 2: do that on any of the Sunday shows this week.
• 2:35
  Speaker 3: If you were.
• 2:35
  Speaker 2: Watching them, you missed out a review of the news
• 2:38
  Speaker 2: of the week. Instead, they zeroed in on one or
• 2:41
  Speaker 2: two things that they liked. Well, they're basically only two
• 2:46
  Speaker 2: get hexaf and Narco boats, and they were going after
• 2:50
  Speaker 2: these Narco boats, and every crazy Democrat was on there
• 2:55
  Speaker 2: with their crazy explanations. It might have been We think
• 2:58
  Speaker 2: it was maybe a fishing but they could have been
• 2:59
  Speaker 2: fishing boats. No one's ever seen a fishing boat with
• 3:04
  Speaker 2: six outboards on it and super high speed going eight
• 3:06
  Speaker 2: hundred miles an hour at three in the morning. Nobody's
• 3:09
  Speaker 2: ever seen a fishing boat. I'm not an expert on
• 3:13
  Speaker 2: the fishing or boats, but you can tell a Narco
• 3:16
  Speaker 2: boat from a fishing boat. A fishing boat has fishing
• 3:20
  Speaker 2: equipment all over it and hanging off the sides. You
• 3:23
  Speaker 2: can tell the Narco boat because it's a super high
• 3:26
  Speaker 2: speed boat with a million outboard engines on it, and
• 3:29
  Speaker 2: it's got twenty five oil drums of chemicals. You can
• 3:34
  Speaker 2: always tell the Narco boat that way. See the fishing
• 3:37
  Speaker 2: boat brings bait. Bait isn't that big. You don't need
• 3:41
  Speaker 2: twenty five oil drums full of bait, so you can tell. Hey,
• 3:46
  Speaker 2: the best moment on the Sunday Shows. The finest moment
• 3:48
  Speaker 2: was the Senator of Missouri, Eric Schmidt Stephanopoulos, or as
• 3:54
  Speaker 2: we call him, Trump first named him, George Slapadopoulos is
• 3:59
  Speaker 2: interviewing him. Now he does what they all do. The
• 4:01
  Speaker 2: greatest example this week was Margaret Brennan. You know they
• 4:04
  Speaker 2: all do this jackal and hide. They have a Republican
• 4:07
  Speaker 2: on and every time the Republican answers, they.
• 4:09
  Speaker 4: Tear it to him.
• 4:10
  Speaker 2: They a thousand follow ups, they tear apart his answer,
• 4:14
  Speaker 2: They yell and scream at him, they go crazy, and
• 4:19
  Speaker 2: then they go to commercial. Then they come back with
• 4:21
  Speaker 2: a Democrat and whenever the Democrat answers, they just nod
• 4:25
  Speaker 2: like a bobblehead. They have no follow ups, no pushback.
• 4:28
  Speaker 2: Whatever the answer is, uh huh, well, thank you, Okay,
• 4:30
  Speaker 2: here's my next questions just little softble interviews. So for
• 4:33
  Speaker 2: the Republican they're vicious pitbulls tearing into them. Then when
• 4:37
  Speaker 2: they come back from commercial to interview the Democrat, they're
• 4:39
  Speaker 2: cute little poodles hugging the guests. So Schmidt brought this up.
• 4:45
  Speaker 2: Stephanopolos is trying to destroy Schmidt. He just had a
• 4:48
  Speaker 2: guest on talking about the Narco boats and whatever the
• 4:51
  Speaker 2: guest said, Stephanopolis just nodded like a bobblehead. Then he
• 4:55
  Speaker 2: comes back with Eric Schmidt. Whatever Schmid said, Stephanopolis vicious,
• 5:00
  Speaker 2: angry tears into them. Listen to this exchange. This is
• 5:02
  Speaker 2: Eric Schmidt. This moment went super viral on the Sunday
• 5:05
  Speaker 2: Show yesterday.
• 5:06
  Speaker 5: Well, I'm curious about your pushback on that particular point.
• 5:09
  Speaker 5: With your previous guests, you had zero pushback because he's
• 5:12
  Speaker 5: giving the Democrat talking points like you spew every single week,
• 5:15
  Speaker 5: which is probably why your ratings are so bad.
• 5:18
  Speaker 2: He kept going, he kept tearing into Stephanopolis, and.
• 5:21
  Speaker 5: You're trying to divert here the attention from what the
• 5:24
  Speaker 5: American people actually support. Seventy five percent of Americans support
• 5:28
  Speaker 5: US blowing Narco terrorists out of the water in the
• 5:30
  Speaker 5: Caribbean who are trying to poison Americans. There's no real
• 5:33
  Speaker 5: legal debate about the ability to do that. Now you
• 5:36
  Speaker 5: could have a policy discussion about it, which now you
• 5:38
  Speaker 5: see the Democrats pivoting from the second strike and the
• 5:42
  Speaker 5: war crimes allegation to really what this whole thing is about,
• 5:45
  Speaker 5: should we do it and be doing it in the
• 5:46
  Speaker 5: first place.
• 5:47
  Speaker 2: Now, you got to remember the drug lords, the big
• 5:49
  Speaker 2: cartel leaders, you know, Salamanca and all those and Gus
• 5:54
  Speaker 2: Fring and all the cartel leaders watching the Sunday shows
• 5:58
  Speaker 2: had tears in their eye so grateful at the way
• 6:02
  Speaker 2: these Sunday hosts were defending them in their drug boats,
• 6:05
  Speaker 2: sticking up for them, fighting for them.
• 6:08
  Speaker 5: And this is kind of the rabbit hole of Trump
• 6:09
  Speaker 5: arrangement syndrome, is that they can't let this thing go.
• 6:12
  Speaker 5: They can't believe that he won. They didn't want Hegseth
• 6:14
  Speaker 5: to be the Secretary of War. They fought it. He
• 6:16
  Speaker 5: was their number one target. They failed at that, and
• 6:18
  Speaker 5: so now you just have a series and series of
• 6:20
  Speaker 5: issues that come up every week to try to undermine
• 6:22
  Speaker 5: this president the secretary of War, and it's not working.
• 6:25
  Speaker 2: It's amazing how this Trump arrangement syndrome has these Democrats
• 6:30
  Speaker 2: defending anything illegal. If it's illegal, they're going to defend it.
• 6:34
  Speaker 2: If it's narco terrorists and drug shipments, Fell defended, it's
• 6:39
  Speaker 2: illegals all over the city streets. Fell defended whatever it is.
• 6:42
  Speaker 2: If it's anti Trump, they'll defend it, even if it's illegal.
• 6:47
  Speaker 2: The standing up fighting for every criminal in the world. Hey,
• 6:50
  Speaker 2: now that one of the fascinating things this past week
• 6:52
  Speaker 2: was they caught the pipe bomber January sixth. Everybody was
• 6:56
  Speaker 2: focused on the trespassing incident at the Capitol and not
• 7:00
  Speaker 2: on the pipe bombs. Somebody put bombs at the RNC
• 7:04
  Speaker 2: and at the DNC. This is pretty serious stuff. They
• 7:09
  Speaker 2: caught it and they got the bombs and got rid
• 7:11
  Speaker 2: of them. But that could have been a disastrous that.
• 7:14
  Speaker 2: You know, all you heard about was January sixth, was
• 7:16
  Speaker 2: the trespassers, the people at unlawful entry. They were all
• 7:21
  Speaker 2: charged with unlawful entry, trespassing, that sort of stuff. This
• 7:24
  Speaker 2: is all you heard about. You never really heard any
• 7:27
  Speaker 2: follow up on the pipe bombs. And the reason was
• 7:31
  Speaker 2: Christopher Ray, who was the worst FBI director, a real
• 7:35
  Speaker 2: swamp creature, and the deep state the swamp was only
• 7:38
  Speaker 2: interested in getting Trump. They felt that the trespassing at
• 7:42
  Speaker 2: the capitol, the chaos at the Capitol, would get Trump,
• 7:45
  Speaker 2: so they focused on that. They investigated like crazy, they
• 7:50
  Speaker 2: prosecuted like crazy. They got like seven hundred and sixty
• 7:54
  Speaker 2: of those trespassers. They went after that. The pipe bomb
• 7:57
  Speaker 2: they decided was of no value to them as far
• 8:00
  Speaker 2: as their narrative because the pipe bomber tried to blow
• 8:03
  Speaker 2: up the DNC and the RNC. It didn't look like
• 8:06
  Speaker 2: he had any political leaning, so it was of no
• 8:09
  Speaker 2: value to Chris Ray, the FBI, the deep state, the swamp,
• 8:13
  Speaker 2: the Biden administration, they they weren't interested in the pipe bomber.
• 8:16
  Speaker 2: Finding him not in any interest, so they let it go.
• 8:20
  Speaker 2: They had a lot of evidence, but they didn't really
• 8:23
  Speaker 2: do anything with it. Well, a few weeks ago, actually
• 8:26
  Speaker 2: a couple of months ago, Trump administration decided to really
• 8:29
  Speaker 2: go after this and do the investigation and find this guy.
• 8:34
  Speaker 2: And they did. They took all the existing evidence and
• 8:38
  Speaker 2: then they used AI. Christopher Ray could have done this,
• 8:42
  Speaker 2: and this is it's fascinating stuff what they can do
• 8:44
  Speaker 2: with AI. You ever watched that CSI. But the laboratory stuff.
• 8:49
  Speaker 2: They can do the scientifics to catch a criminals. Frightening,
• 8:52
  Speaker 2: and you're a criminal, you gotta go whoa this is?
• 8:55
  Speaker 2: I mean they are really thorough, but this is way
• 8:58
  Speaker 2: beyond it. This is AI. So one of the things
• 9:01
  Speaker 2: they used the AI for they figured out what it
• 9:04
  Speaker 2: takes to make a pipe bomb. There's about seventeen things
• 9:07
  Speaker 2: you'd have to buy to make a pipe bomb. You'd
• 9:11
  Speaker 2: have to buy a certain type of pipe, certain types
• 9:14
  Speaker 2: of chemicals also, So they listed the seventeen things and
• 9:19
  Speaker 2: then they looked through the sales receipts of every store, everywhere,
• 9:24
  Speaker 2: home depot, lows, every hardware thing. They looked through all
• 9:27
  Speaker 2: the sales receipts. Now only AI could do this. For humans,
• 9:30
  Speaker 2: to do this, you'd need a team of like ten
• 9:32
  Speaker 2: thousand people and it would take them year's But the
• 9:35
  Speaker 2: AI can look through the sale of everything in the
• 9:38
  Speaker 2: America and figure out did any one person buy all
• 9:42
  Speaker 2: seventeen of these things? And they got a name somebody
• 9:47
  Speaker 2: that bought all seventeen. Then they could take the two
• 9:50
  Speaker 2: locations where the pipe bombs were. You know, your phone
• 9:53
  Speaker 2: has a GPS in it, they can track where you are.
• 9:56
  Speaker 2: So and only AI could do this. For humans to
• 9:58
  Speaker 2: do it would take twenty years and a thousand people.
• 10:02
  Speaker 2: The AI could look through all the phone records of
• 10:05
  Speaker 2: all the cell phones and see if anybody was in
• 10:07
  Speaker 2: both those locations on that day. And they did, and
• 10:11
  Speaker 2: they got it down to one guy. They figured out
• 10:13
  Speaker 2: it was the guy. And then they went to you know,
• 10:15
  Speaker 2: they had the security video, they looked, they found the
• 10:18
  Speaker 2: guy on it. They've got him. He's been arrested, he
• 10:23
  Speaker 2: will be prosecuted. It's going to be a hell of
• 10:25
  Speaker 2: a trial. Christopher Ray could have done this, Biden could
• 10:29
  Speaker 2: have done this. They decided deliberately not to. But they
• 10:32
  Speaker 2: got the guy. And it's a great, great, great accomplishment
• 10:36
  Speaker 2: for Jeanine Piro, for the FBI. Now here's the only
• 10:41
  Speaker 2: problem for you said, well, gee, I didn't hear a
• 10:43
  Speaker 2: loud about this. How am they're not talking about this? Well,
• 10:46
  Speaker 2: here's the reason they've looked through this guy is everything,
• 10:48
  Speaker 2: his emails, his social media, everything. There is no indication
• 10:54
  Speaker 2: anywhere that he was a Trump voter. In fact, it
• 10:59
  Speaker 2: appears he did not register with either party. He did
• 11:01
  Speaker 2: not vote. It seems he has nothing to do with Trump,
• 11:04
  Speaker 2: no connection. He's more of just an angry anarchist sort
• 11:08
  Speaker 2: of a guy. So there's nothing to tie him to
• 11:11
  Speaker 2: a MAGA or Trump. So that's the other reason you
• 11:14
  Speaker 2: didn't hear anything about it this week. He's facing thirty
• 11:18
  Speaker 2: years in prison if convicted. It's most likely he will
• 11:21
  Speaker 2: be convicted. The evidence is overwhelming. So that should be it.
• 11:27
  Speaker 2: Kennedy Center Honors last night. It's a great thing in
• 11:30
  Speaker 2: Washington because here in New York we got a million gallows.
• 11:35
  Speaker 2: We got all sorts of gallows every night of the week,
• 11:38
  Speaker 2: we got all sorts of awards, got every There's a
• 11:41
  Speaker 2: million things in there. Washington, DC, they don't have a lot.
• 11:45
  Speaker 2: There's really not much. There's the Kennedy Center Honors that's
• 11:48
  Speaker 2: like the one big galla of the year. There's what
• 11:51
  Speaker 2: they call the Alfalfa Dinner. That's a big event down there.
• 11:55
  Speaker 2: There's that White House Corresponds dinner. But that's about it.
• 11:59
  Speaker 2: Very rarely today have any excuse down there to get
• 12:01
  Speaker 2: dressed up and go to a big gallous. It's the
• 12:04
  Speaker 2: biggest event in Washington all year. I used to go
• 12:06
  Speaker 2: to it every year but stopped about ten years ago.
• 12:10
  Speaker 2: But it was always a great event. And when you
• 12:13
  Speaker 2: go there, the Kennedy said, the whole audience, the entire audience,
• 12:17
  Speaker 2: are famous political people, all the Senators, all the congressmen,
• 12:19
  Speaker 2: all the Cabinet, everybody. And it's always four or five
• 12:24
  Speaker 2: great honorees. A couple are really big stars. A couple
• 12:26
  Speaker 2: of people that aren't such big stars to most people.
• 12:30
  Speaker 2: You know, a classical musician, a ballet, you know, that
• 12:33
  Speaker 2: kind of stuff. But Trump has taken over the Kennedy Center,
• 12:36
  Speaker 2: put all his people on the board. It used to
• 12:39
  Speaker 2: be kind of left wing, but then it got more
• 12:42
  Speaker 2: and more and more and more to the left. It
• 12:44
  Speaker 2: was really partisan. Now it's not. So you get real
• 12:48
  Speaker 2: American heroes. You know, Sylvester Stallone. And in the old
• 12:53
  Speaker 2: days of Keney centerd be Laurence Olivier. Now it's Sylvester Stallone.
• 12:56
  Speaker 2: But that's good. And Trump, remember loves Sylvester Stallone. They
• 12:59
  Speaker 2: did a lot of stuff through the years together, TV
• 13:02
  Speaker 2: and other stuff. And the President has a big ceremony
• 13:06
  Speaker 2: in the Oval Office giving the special medals, and then
• 13:10
  Speaker 2: they go to the Kenny Center and they do the
• 13:11
  Speaker 2: big dinner. Here's President Trump and it was Rambo.
• 13:13
  Speaker 6: I knew nothing about it, but I like sly, So
• 13:16
  Speaker 6: I said, let's go see it. After about four minutes,
• 13:18
  Speaker 6: they said, this movie is great.
• 13:20
  Speaker 2: Yeah, so hey. Also remember Trump became a big hit
• 13:24
  Speaker 2: with The Apprentice. It was the number one show in television,
• 13:27
  Speaker 2: so big that they decided to do spinoffs. Remember the
• 13:29
  Speaker 2: first spinoff of The Apprentice, Sylvester Stallone was the host. Yeah,
• 13:33
  Speaker 2: it didn't do well. There were fourteen Apprentice copies and
• 13:37
  Speaker 2: none of them did well. Only Trump's Michael Crawford Phanom
• 13:41
  Speaker 2: of the Opera. Donald Trump loves fan of the Opera.
• 13:44
  Speaker 2: You wouldn't think that, would you. You wouldn't think that'd
• 13:46
  Speaker 2: be his kind of ship. But he loves it, loves
• 13:47
  Speaker 2: the music, loves Michael Crawford. He got the Kennedy Center Award.
• 13:51
  Speaker 6: And I don't think they're ever going to find anybody
• 13:53
  Speaker 6: like you, Michael, Okay, I know something about that business.
• 13:56
  Speaker 6: I don't think they'll find anybody like you.
• 13:58
  Speaker 2: He was brilliant in Phantom of the Opera. He was
• 14:02
  Speaker 2: amazing in Phantom of the Opera. However, that's twenty eight
• 14:06
  Speaker 2: years ago and he hasn't done much since. I guess
• 14:08
  Speaker 2: he has, but you know, that's what he's best known for.
• 14:11
  Speaker 2: Me I mean musically he's not. I remember he's in
• 14:14
  Speaker 2: Las Vegas for a while, one of those residencies. But
• 14:18
  Speaker 2: it's great to see him get it and big happy
• 14:21
  Speaker 2: crowd except for the left. Now, what they do They
• 14:25
  Speaker 2: do the Kennedy Centers on a Sunday night and then
• 14:28
  Speaker 2: they record it. It's that three or four hour deal
• 14:31
  Speaker 2: and then they chop it down to two hours for
• 14:32
  Speaker 2: a television special on CBS. That's been the routine for many,
• 14:36
  Speaker 2: many years. So it was last night they recorded it.
• 14:39
  Speaker 2: It will be seen December thirteenth on CBS, the edited version.
• 14:44
  Speaker 2: Now this will be interesting. It gets pretty good ratings.
• 14:47
  Speaker 2: But of course the left wingers will not watch it.
• 14:49
  Speaker 2: They'll go crazy. But we'll see, we'll see how well
• 14:52
  Speaker 2: it does this year. Hey, we'll get to mom. Donnie
• 14:55
  Speaker 2: coming up. He's made the decision. He will give up
• 14:59
  Speaker 2: his rent controlled department. He will move into Gracy Mansion. Now,
• 15:03
  Speaker 2: one of the reasons is security told him that it's
• 15:06
  Speaker 2: really impossible for him to continue to live in an
• 15:08
  Speaker 2: apartment building in Astoria. There's a lot of security around him, Mayor,
• 15:12
  Speaker 2: and they just it would be totally disruptive to the
• 15:16
  Speaker 2: apartment building. You know, when you're the mayor, the governor.
• 15:19
  Speaker 2: Generally you come into a building, they shut off the elevator.
• 15:22
  Speaker 2: You know, no one else is allowed in the elevator,
• 15:24
  Speaker 2: he except you and the security. So you can't do
• 15:27
  Speaker 2: that in an apartment building. Also, they'd have to check
• 15:31
  Speaker 2: everybody coming in and out all the time. You can't
• 15:33
  Speaker 2: do it. So he'll move into Gracey Mansion. Pretty good socialist.
• 15:38
  Speaker 2: They're living in a mansion, Gracy Mansion, right on the water.
• 15:42
  Speaker 2: We'll get into this more detail later. He's got this
• 15:44
  Speaker 2: plan now to stop the sweeps of homeless people, the encampments.
• 15:50
  Speaker 2: Of course, this is a disaster. Eric Adams has been
• 15:53
  Speaker 2: doing a good job. You know, you may not have noticed.
• 15:55
  Speaker 2: Maybe you did notice. You see very few homeless people
• 15:58
  Speaker 2: and you don't see any homeless camps anywhere.
• 16:00
  Speaker 7: If he's stating he's no longer going to implement a
• 16:04
  Speaker 7: smart policy on our part, New Yorkers have got to
• 16:07
  Speaker 7: see the repercussions of that.
• 16:09
  Speaker 2: Yeah, so well, well we'll get into this and don't
• 16:12
  Speaker 2: ma'm Donnie's ridiculous explanation of why he seem to do. Hey,
• 16:15
  Speaker 2: by the way, you know, you keep everybody's leaving New
• 16:17
  Speaker 2: York that's it. Everybody's leaving. Everybody's people are not leaving here.
• 16:23
  Speaker 2: Actual statistics since the election. Real estate sales have been
• 16:28
  Speaker 2: booming since Mam Donnie got elected. Since his election, eight
• 16:32
  Speaker 2: hundred and sixty nine contracts have been signed in New
• 16:35
  Speaker 2: York City. That's a little down, it's like down half
• 16:38
  Speaker 2: a one percent, but it's pretty close to last year.
• 16:40
  Speaker 2: Eight hundred and sixty nine contracts have been signed. Condo
• 16:45
  Speaker 2: sales have been very strong since the election. Luxury deals
• 16:49
  Speaker 2: very strong. Forty one contracts signed just last week. That's
• 16:53
  Speaker 2: a lot. And you get on these big real estate guys,
• 16:57
  Speaker 2: the big, big, big geniuses of real estate and banking.
• 17:01
  Speaker 2: They know better, they see the future. JP Morgan, you know,
• 17:04
  Speaker 2: just open this massive, massive new headquarters on Park Avenue.
• 17:10
  Speaker 2: Ten thousand people can work in that building. So you think, well,
• 17:13
  Speaker 2: that show's confidence. You know what shows even more confidence.
• 17:15
  Speaker 2: Now I'm hearing JP Morgan is going to do a
• 17:18
  Speaker 2: second building a block or two a way. They need
• 17:20
  Speaker 2: a whole other building, another massive skyscraper they're going to do.
• 17:24
  Speaker 2: And there's more examples of this. So these guys think
• 17:26
  Speaker 2: New York will be fine. Anyway, we'll get back to Mom, Donnie.
• 17:29
  Speaker 2: We'll get to all of that coming up. We'll take
• 17:31
  Speaker 2: some calls. Next eight hundred three to two one zero
• 17:35
  Speaker 2: seven ten is the number eight hundred three two one
• 17:38
  Speaker 2: zero seven ten.
• 17:40
  Speaker 1: If you're listening to Mark on the iHeartRadio app, save
• 17:43
  Speaker 1: time and tap the preset button. Now. Now back to
• 17:46
  Speaker 1: the Mark Simone Show on woor.
• 17:51
  Speaker 2: Hey, let's take some calls. Let's go to Kim in Connecticut. Kim,
• 17:55
  Speaker 2: how you doing good?
• 17:57
  Speaker 8: Thanks, I've been listening with years show about the recent
• 18:02
  Speaker 8: homeless situation in New York. What Mandannie's doing there. I
• 18:07
  Speaker 8: just wanted to say that this is spreading like a cancer.
• 18:10
  Speaker 8: It is in Connecticut now among the socialist Democrats. Connecticut
• 18:18
  Speaker 8: is totally run by the Democratic Party. You have two
• 18:21
  Speaker 8: Democratic senators.
• 18:23
  Speaker 2: Well, you got the two worst senators, two really really
• 18:27
  Speaker 2: ugly bad.
• 18:27
  Speaker 8: Senators, the really worst.
• 18:30
  Speaker 2: Now your governor's not so bad. Your governor has moments
• 18:32
  Speaker 2: of very very bad behavior, maybe because Ned Lamont, the
• 18:39
  Speaker 2: governor was a business guy for many, many years, so
• 18:42
  Speaker 2: he goes pretty left woke sometimes, but sometimes he goes
• 18:46
  Speaker 2: very very common sense. But you've got Blumenthal and Chris Murphy,
• 18:49
  Speaker 2: the two of the sleaziest dirtiest public servants ever lying?
• 18:55
  Speaker 2: How many times these guys Guy's been caught lying about
• 18:58
  Speaker 2: anything and everything. Let's go to Mike in Florida.
• 19:01
  Speaker 9: Mike, how you doing, Good morning, Mark, Yes, Mike, And
• 19:05
  Speaker 9: before I make my point about the Democrats, can you
• 19:07
  Speaker 9: believe it's been forty five years since John Lennon was killed?
• 19:11
  Speaker 2: Wow? For years?
• 19:12
  Speaker 10: Unbelievable, forty five years.
• 19:15
  Speaker 9: It's like mind boggling, isn't it.
• 19:17
  Speaker 2: Yeah, right in front of the Dakota seventy second and
• 19:21
  Speaker 2: Central Park West.
• 19:23
  Speaker 9: Yeah, unbelievable, Like it's like surreal. Actually they think it's
• 19:28
  Speaker 9: been that long. Yeah, But you were mentioning about the
• 19:31
  Speaker 9: Democrats they have.
• 19:32
  Speaker 3: They're so clever.
• 19:33
  Speaker 9: You know, they have this quiver of issues that they
• 19:35
  Speaker 9: like to put an arrow out, take an arrow out,
• 19:38
  Speaker 9: and put it back in. You know, Epstein being one
• 19:40
  Speaker 9: of them that you know, the the narco stuff that
• 19:44
  Speaker 9: will disappear for a couple of weeks and then they'll
• 19:46
  Speaker 9: bring it back. Then they'll bring out you know Maxine Nicely,
• 19:49
  Speaker 9: Maxine Waters, you know, made her appearance. So they're starting
• 19:53
  Speaker 9: to bring out the big guns to start, you know,
• 19:56
  Speaker 9: hammering away. They're very clever at there, Yeah, you can't.
• 19:59
  Speaker 2: Make in case that that clever because none of these
• 20:01
  Speaker 2: things ever go anywhere. I mean, it gives them something
• 20:03
  Speaker 2: to do at MSNBC, but they never amount anything. The
• 20:06
  Speaker 2: Epstein thing went nowhere. The Narco boats will go nowhere
• 20:09
  Speaker 2: for them. None of them work in the end.
• 20:11
  Speaker 9: Well, I just hope it doesn't have accumulative effect, you know,
• 20:14
  Speaker 9: on the voters. It's not us, but too many other
• 20:18
  Speaker 9: people seem to be able to into this stuff.
• 20:20
  Speaker 2: Yeah, no, I know what you mean, but it's more
• 20:22
  Speaker 2: just red meat for the Trumps arrangement syndrome crowd. You
• 20:24
  Speaker 2: got to throw them something every day. You know. They
• 20:27
  Speaker 2: got a signal gate. That was a big one for
• 20:29
  Speaker 2: a week or two. Signal Gate. They're using the signal.
• 20:32
  Speaker 2: They were all fired up about that. It was all
• 20:34
  Speaker 2: over CNN and MSNB. The normal people in the public home,
• 20:37
  Speaker 2: what the hell is signal gate? They're paying no attention
• 20:39
  Speaker 2: to it. Same thing with the narco boats. They like
• 20:42
  Speaker 2: seeing drug dealers blown up. They enjoy that. They think
• 20:45
  Speaker 2: that's good for America, getting rid of all the fentanyl
• 20:47
  Speaker 2: and cocaine and all. They like that. So it ends
• 20:50
  Speaker 2: up going nowhere in the end, you know, the Epstein thing. Again,
• 20:56
  Speaker 2: it just doesn't register. Most people don't care. Hey, by
• 20:58
  Speaker 2: the way, I've talked to everybody that's read the Epstein
• 21:01
  Speaker 2: files in detail. I mean, these are prosecutors in the
• 21:05
  Speaker 2: US Attorney's office, These are FBI guys. Alan Dershowitz who
• 21:10
  Speaker 2: was there. He was Epstein's lawyer, and they all say
• 21:13
  Speaker 2: the same thing. They all seem to agree on one thing.
• 21:15
  Speaker 2: There is nothing in these Epstein files that would surprise anybody.
• 21:21
  Speaker 2: In fact, there are no names in their Every name
• 21:23
  Speaker 2: you think it's going to be in every name has
• 21:25
  Speaker 2: already been public. There's a couple of names that aren't,
• 21:28
  Speaker 2: but they're like unknown business people. But all the names
• 21:31
  Speaker 2: have already been made public. There's nothing in there. And
• 21:35
  Speaker 2: when they say the Epstein files, it's mostly from the
• 21:38
  Speaker 2: US Attorney's office here in Manhattan, the Southern District. And
• 21:43
  Speaker 2: if you talk to people that have seen that file,
• 21:45
  Speaker 2: what it is, it's just witness interviews. That's ninety eight
• 21:48
  Speaker 2: percent of the file is just witness interviews and there's
• 21:51
  Speaker 2: not much in there. Let's go to Paul in Whitestone. Paul,
• 21:54
  Speaker 2: how you doing.
• 21:56
  Speaker 10: Yeah, Mark, how are you doing good? You can't make
• 21:58
  Speaker 10: this up. A cont got to stop.
• 22:01
  Speaker 2: Nothing against you personally, everybody has got to stop using
• 22:04
  Speaker 2: that expression. You can't make this stuff up. You can
• 22:07
  Speaker 2: make it up. It's offensive to the great writers and
• 22:11
  Speaker 2: novelists and screenwriters. You can very easily make this kind
• 22:14
  Speaker 2: of stuff up. In fact, there are guys that do
• 22:16
  Speaker 2: that all day long for a living. So nothing against you, though.
• 22:19
  Speaker 3: Go ahead, all right.
• 22:21
  Speaker 10: A communist who wants to abolish prisons and police is
• 22:25
  Speaker 10: going to live in a mansion for quote, his family's safety.
• 22:29
  Speaker 10: I don't want to hear it. If the police advise this,
• 22:31
  Speaker 10: he should stand for his principles and say no, I'm
• 22:35
  Speaker 10: going to stay in the story. I'm going to not
• 22:37
  Speaker 10: have police protection. But he's not going to do that
• 22:40
  Speaker 10: because he's like every other communist leader, and the young,
• 22:43
  Speaker 10: selfish idiots who voted for him because they want free
• 22:46
  Speaker 10: stuff are about to learn a harsh lesson.
• 22:49
  Speaker 2: Yeah, well it happens. Who is it that said great
• 22:52
  Speaker 2: Commas said we have to go through this every twenty years.
• 22:56
  Speaker 2: We have to let him do their socialism experiment. Let
• 22:58
  Speaker 2: it fail so the new generals can see how bad
• 23:01
  Speaker 2: it is. But again, nobody out there ever say again,
• 23:05
  Speaker 2: you can't make this stuff up. I remember sitting with
• 23:08
  Speaker 2: I'll mentioned names a couple of great screenwriters and someone said,
• 23:11
  Speaker 2: you can't make this up, and they got very offended.
• 23:13
  Speaker 2: They said, you can. That's what we do for a living.
• 23:16
  Speaker 2: We can make up stuff even more far fetched than this.
• 23:19
  Speaker 2: It's easy to do. Hey, when we come back. Michael
• 23:22
  Speaker 2: Goodwin has been out of action for a couple of weeks,
• 23:25
  Speaker 2: but Liz Peak, the brilliant columnists will be with us
• 23:28
  Speaker 2: next on seven to ten wor.
• 23:31
  Speaker 1: More Mark Simone on seven ten Woo.
• 23:36
  Speaker 2: Well, Liz Peak the brilliant columnist, and he's got this
• 23:40
  Speaker 2: wonderful website. You should check it every day. Sign up
• 23:43
  Speaker 2: for the daily Briefings. It's great news and analysis. Lizpeak
• 23:48
  Speaker 2: dot com. Lizpeak dot com. Make sure you sign up
• 23:51
  Speaker 2: for the daily Briefing every day. Good stuff, Liz Peak.
• 23:54
  Speaker 2: How you doing, I'm.
• 23:57
  Speaker 11: Terrific better for speaking with you.
• 23:59
  Speaker 2: Hey, hear that the big drug lords, the cartel bosses,
• 24:03
  Speaker 2: had tears in their eyes yesterday watching these Sunday shows,
• 24:06
  Speaker 2: so grateful to the host for sticking up for them,
• 24:09
  Speaker 2: defending them in their narco boats. How much longer do
• 24:13
  Speaker 2: we have to listen to this from the Democrats.
• 24:16
  Speaker 12: I mean, Mark, don't you really begin to sort of think,
• 24:19
  Speaker 12: what are the Democrats doing? What do they stand for?
• 24:23
  Speaker 12: As the public looks at the Democratic Party? Now, they
• 24:26
  Speaker 12: stand for illegal immigration. They stand for effectively embracing recidivism,
• 24:32
  Speaker 12: not putting anyone in jail, and all these god awful
• 24:35
  Speaker 12: stories week after week, just like the light train stabbing,
• 24:39
  Speaker 12: the second one again as someone who's been convicted of
• 24:43
  Speaker 12: many times an illegal immigrant, I mean, what are the
• 24:47
  Speaker 12: They embrace fraud? They're opposed twenty six states won't let
• 24:52
  Speaker 12: the federal government look at their SNAP programs and their
• 24:55
  Speaker 12: Medicaid programs.
• 24:57
  Speaker 11: Why. I mean, fraud is a serious thing.
• 25:00
  Speaker 12: Hundreds of billions of dollars every year and that is,
• 25:03
  Speaker 12: by the way, coming a statistic coming from Joe Biden's
• 25:06
  Speaker 12: administration are lost to waste and fraud by our federal
• 25:11
  Speaker 12: welfare programs. What is it that the Democrats are offering
• 25:15
  Speaker 12: people that they can possibly like? And as you say,
• 25:19
  Speaker 12: the final thing standing up for narco traffickers, that is
• 25:23
  Speaker 12: really a winning argument. My god, what is wrong with
• 25:26
  Speaker 12: these people?
• 25:28
  Speaker 2: So whenever it comes to Democrats and homeless programs, money
• 25:32
  Speaker 2: seems to have vanished. Remember we had the Deblasio administration
• 25:35
  Speaker 2: with that thrive.
• 25:36
  Speaker 11: Indorson dollars billion missing.
• 25:39
  Speaker 2: Now in this Somali, Minnesota, Tim Waltz, whatever this is,
• 25:43
  Speaker 2: they're talking about maybe up to eight billion missing. Mom,
• 25:47
  Speaker 2: Donnie is now talking about a homeless program. Does that
• 25:50
  Speaker 2: mean another billion is going to get lost somewhere?
• 25:53
  Speaker 11: Sure?
• 25:53
  Speaker 12: Sure, because among other things, none of these people has
• 25:57
  Speaker 12: real world private sector or experience. So you know, I
• 26:02
  Speaker 12: think it was Jamie Dimond yesterday on Maria's Maria Bartiromo
• 26:07
  Speaker 12: show talking about the city is three hundred thousand people
• 26:10
  Speaker 12: and basically, successful mayors are people who can manage. Well,
• 26:14
  Speaker 12: do you think this guy has any management capabilities at all?
• 26:18
  Speaker 12: Of course he doesn't. He hasn't read, he hasn't run
• 26:21
  Speaker 12: a business. He hasn't run any Most Democrats, by the way,
• 26:25
  Speaker 12: have never run a business, which is a very interesting
• 26:29
  Speaker 12: differential in my view, between Republicans and Democrats. When Democrats
• 26:32
  Speaker 12: get fired, they get voted out of a job, what
• 26:35
  Speaker 12: do they do? They run for another office because they
• 26:38
  Speaker 12: don't know how to run a restaurant or build a
• 26:40
  Speaker 12: house or anything practical. Republicans can go back to farming
• 26:44
  Speaker 12: or running a car dealership or you know name it.
• 26:46
  Speaker 12: I mean, actually, if you look at seriously, what you
• 26:49
  Speaker 12: know congress people and mayors and stuff do after retirement.
• 26:53
  Speaker 11: They either go to work for.
• 26:55
  Speaker 12: MSNBC if they're Democrats, or they go to Harvard to teach,
• 26:59
  Speaker 12: like build A Blasio or Lori Lightfoot, or they run
• 27:03
  Speaker 12: for another office. Look at Andrew Como. He couldn't think
• 27:05
  Speaker 12: of anything else to do, so we ran for mayor
• 27:07
  Speaker 12: of New York. That didn't turn out well, So what's
• 27:10
  Speaker 12: he going to do? He's probably going to find, you know,
• 27:12
  Speaker 12: mayor of Buffalo or something next to run for.
• 27:14
  Speaker 11: It's really pitiful. But anyway, Mandani taking.
• 27:18
  Speaker 12: On a lot of money to spew at the homeless.
• 27:22
  Speaker 12: You know, his latest thing on homelessness is he's no
• 27:25
  Speaker 12: longer going to enforce the eradication or the cleaning out
• 27:29
  Speaker 12: of the homeless encampments. Who does that benefit Mark? Who
• 27:33
  Speaker 12: is really applauding that move? It certainly isn't the residence
• 27:36
  Speaker 12: of the neighborhoods where these homeless encampments spring up, because
• 27:40
  Speaker 12: their lives are going to be made a mess by
• 27:43
  Speaker 12: the fact that you're going to have this sprawl of dirty,
• 27:47
  Speaker 12: sometimes violent homeless community that kind of erupts in their
• 27:53
  Speaker 12: midst It isn't good for the homeless, some seventy percent
• 27:56
  Speaker 12: of whom are drug users or alcoholics, because they aren't
• 28:01
  Speaker 12: going to get any treatment. They prefer to live on
• 28:04
  Speaker 12: the street because they can continue to abuse drugs and alcohol.
• 28:07
  Speaker 12: It isn't good for them. Who is it good for?
• 28:10
  Speaker 12: I mean, I really ask that all sincerity. Who does
• 28:13
  Speaker 12: he think he's benefiting there?
• 28:15
  Speaker 2: Yeah? You know, here in the radio business, we want
• 28:18
  Speaker 2: to do something. Sometimes we see what happened in other
• 28:20
  Speaker 2: stations did it and they come in with the report
• 28:22
  Speaker 2: forty seven stations did it and the ratings plunged all
• 28:25
  Speaker 2: forty seven times, So we know not to do it now.
• 28:28
  Speaker 2: In the case of Mamdani, and he's a very smart guy,
• 28:31
  Speaker 2: when they show him thirteen other cities did it and
• 28:33
  Speaker 2: with disaster, why can he take in that information and
• 28:37
  Speaker 2: calculate all this.
• 28:39
  Speaker 12: Well, it's the same thing with rent control, right, rent
• 28:43
  Speaker 12: control has never ever worked anywhere, and so nonetheless, he
• 28:48
  Speaker 12: is very in favor of capping rent increases on subsidized housing,
• 28:52
  Speaker 12: even though it has been proven time after time that
• 28:56
  Speaker 12: what you do is disincentivize landlords from pitting any money
• 29:00
  Speaker 12: any investment into the housing stock, So basically you end
• 29:04
  Speaker 12: up with worse off, less affordable, and crumbling housing. So
• 29:10
  Speaker 12: to your point, why doesn't he learn from that? Why
• 29:13
  Speaker 12: don't the young people out protesting in favor of socialism
• 29:17
  Speaker 12: learn from the fact that never error has socialism resulted
• 29:21
  Speaker 12: in anything but increase poverty and, by the way, increase
• 29:26
  Speaker 12: wealth disparities. I mean, look at Venezuela, a very good example.
• 29:30
  Speaker 12: So the answer to your question is because ideologues like
• 29:34
  Speaker 12: Mom Donnie don't really ever look at facts. They don't
• 29:38
  Speaker 12: look at common sense answers. Are they are wedded to
• 29:43
  Speaker 12: an ideological approach, whether it's climate change or just social
• 29:48
  Speaker 12: justice or whatever that basically is a failure. But then
• 29:52
  Speaker 12: you know, nobody's around to kind of blame them for
• 29:55
  Speaker 12: the failure usually, so they just kind of go on
• 29:58
  Speaker 12: and do what they want. But it's a fact free
• 30:01
  Speaker 12: zone that Mom Donnie is living in.
• 30:03
  Speaker 11: It's true.
• 30:06
  Speaker 2: Is it just childish? That's like a you know, childish teenagers.
• 30:09
  Speaker 2: It something sounds good, they do it. They don't think
• 30:10
  Speaker 2: of the consequences.
• 30:11
  Speaker 12: So yeah, yes, because because just what you said, there's
• 30:15
  Speaker 12: no consequences. What are the consequences if he blows a
• 30:19
  Speaker 12: billion dollars over the next four years on homelessness.
• 30:23
  Speaker 11: Look at Gavin Newsom.
• 30:24
  Speaker 12: How much money has Gavin Newsom spent on homeless projects
• 30:29
  Speaker 12: in California only to see the money disappear, the homeless
• 30:33
  Speaker 12: population continue to grow, et cetera. Does any It's incredible
• 30:38
  Speaker 12: to me. How is it the voters don't say, well,
• 30:40
  Speaker 12: wait a minute, didn't you just ask for five billion
• 30:43
  Speaker 12: dollars for that?
• 30:44
  Speaker 11: Where did that money go?
• 30:46
  Speaker 12: Show us the money, show us, you know, let's have accountability.
• 30:50
  Speaker 12: There is never accountability. It is mystifying.
• 30:53
  Speaker 2: So is the real problem that we don't have legitimate
• 30:56
  Speaker 2: news organizations anymore. If we had real news and media,
• 30:59
  Speaker 2: there would become consequences. Newsom would be a time day
• 31:01
  Speaker 2: and night. So how do you run a democracy with
• 31:04
  Speaker 2: corrupt news?
• 31:05
  Speaker 11: I think that's part of it.
• 31:07
  Speaker 12: I actually think what sort of tragic is we have
• 31:09
  Speaker 12: people who listen to one side or another kind of
• 31:12
  Speaker 12: depending on their politics. They listen to Fox News, they
• 31:15
  Speaker 12: listen to you, or they listen to CNN and MS
• 31:20
  Speaker 12: now or whatever it's called, and people get very little
• 31:23
  Speaker 12: cross fertilization.
• 31:24
  Speaker 11: I think that's fair, very I read. I'm sure you
• 31:27
  Speaker 11: read publications.
• 31:29
  Speaker 12: On the other side, a lot of people simply don't
• 31:31
  Speaker 12: They don't want to know, they don't want to hear,
• 31:33
  Speaker 12: and you know what, that's not good for our country.
• 31:37
  Speaker 12: I hope at some point there really are news organizations
• 31:40
  Speaker 12: that will cover, you know, stories from both sides. I
• 31:45
  Speaker 12: was listening to was it Margaret Brennan who interviewed Elan
• 31:49
  Speaker 12: Omar yesterday?
• 31:51
  Speaker 11: You know, and you just want to kind of put
• 31:52
  Speaker 11: your head through the wall.
• 31:53
  Speaker 12: It's like, really, you're not going to challenge her on
• 31:56
  Speaker 12: the fact that the Somalis have been perpetuating these frauds.
• 32:00
  Speaker 11: But by the way, it's not that big a community.
• 32:02
  Speaker 12: If there were hundreds of people, which probably there were
• 32:05
  Speaker 12: involved in scamming of the three different programs, they acted
• 32:11
  Speaker 12: like it was just one three different programs that they
• 32:13
  Speaker 12: took billions of dollars from. Don't you think an awful
• 32:16
  Speaker 12: lot of Somalis knew what was going on?
• 32:19
  Speaker 1: I do.
• 32:19
  Speaker 11: And for her to just sort of.
• 32:21
  Speaker 12: Accept that, oh, yeah, Somali's really are the victims here,
• 32:25
  Speaker 12: I don't know, it's pretty discouraging.
• 32:28
  Speaker 2: She was funny yesterday. Whatever idiotic explanation Omar gave, she
• 32:32
  Speaker 2: just nodded like a bubble head.
• 32:34
  Speaker 12: Yeah, just nodded, right, I mean it's like but the
• 32:38
  Speaker 12: best media breakout yesterday was Leslie Stall deciding that Marjorie
• 32:44
  Speaker 12: Taylor Green was the person she needed to interview for
• 32:47
  Speaker 12: sixty minutes. So Marjorie Taylor Green, someone who has been
• 32:51
  Speaker 12: totally widely chastised, debunked, criticized on the left, loads on
• 32:58
  Speaker 12: the left as being a conspirat, theorists and all the rest.
• 33:01
  Speaker 12: Now she's acceptable because she's gonna blast Donald Trump.
• 33:05
  Speaker 11: I mean, really, isn't that just incredible?
• 33:08
  Speaker 2: Yeah? Pretty pretty transparent thought. Oh my gosh, well, great stuff. Hey,

  Speaker 2: A lot to get to in the next hour coming
• 34:26
  Speaker 2: up right here on seven to ten. Wo welcome back
• 34:30
  Speaker 2: to the Mark Simone Show seven tenor Well, freezing cold
• 34:39
  Speaker 2: day today, So we're just talking about this a moment ago.
• 34:43
  Speaker 2: Marjorie Taylor Green. You remember that looney woman, Marjorie Taylor Green.
• 34:48
  Speaker 2: So she turned on Trump when on Trump started attacking him,
• 34:53
  Speaker 2: attacking him, attacking him. Trump attacked her back, called her
• 34:57
  Speaker 2: a trader. So she left politics, and she left politics
• 35:01
  Speaker 2: is all the polling show. She couldn't win. She would
• 35:06
  Speaker 2: not win reelection, so it looks better just to resign,
• 35:09
  Speaker 2: drop out, so you're not going to run again. And
• 35:13
  Speaker 2: you know, sixty Minutes would never put a woman like
• 35:15
  Speaker 2: that on the air. Crazy conspiracy theory, nutty. They would
• 35:19
  Speaker 2: never put her on sixty minutes. Ever, unless she starts
• 35:24
  Speaker 2: attacking Trump. Then all of a sudden, she's the big
• 35:26
  Speaker 2: interview last night, the big superstar interview of sixty Minutes.
• 35:30
  Speaker 2: She's the main feature, an interview with Marjorie Taylor Green.
• 35:33
  Speaker 2: She's attacking Trump. They love her, they put her on
• 35:36
  Speaker 2: the air. She did have one great moment though, where
• 35:40
  Speaker 2: Leslie Stall said to her, you know our awful toxic politics,
• 35:45
  Speaker 2: all the crazy partisan She said you. She looked at
• 35:50
  Speaker 2: Marjorie Taylor Green. You know you were a big part
• 35:53
  Speaker 2: of the toxic politics. And good for Marjorie Taylor Green.
• 35:57
  Speaker 2: She is and you weren't. He said, Leslie, you were
• 36:01
  Speaker 2: as toxic as anybody politically, which is true. I mean
• 36:05
  Speaker 2: Leslie Stall got caught in more lying fake news. Remember
• 36:10
  Speaker 2: the famous Trump interview where he talked about the surveillance
• 36:13
  Speaker 2: on his campaign, and Leslie Stall said, there's no truth
• 36:16
  Speaker 2: to that. Well, of course it turned out to be
• 36:17
  Speaker 2: absolutely true, and she looked ridiculous. But President Trump went
• 36:22
  Speaker 2: on truth Social last night, really went after sixty minutes
• 36:25
  Speaker 2: Paramount attacking them like crazy. He really unleashed on them.
• 36:31
  Speaker 2: He said, under Paramont sixty minutes even got worse. It's
• 36:36
  Speaker 2: actually even worse now than before. Well, give them time
• 36:40
  Speaker 2: to cleaning house there. It's going to take a while.
• 36:42
  Speaker 2: It's gonna be done very slowly. They're going to get
• 36:45
  Speaker 2: rid of people one by one. Leslie Stall will be gone.
• 36:48
  Speaker 2: Gail King has already gone. I mean she's still on,
• 36:50
  Speaker 2: but she's leaving. All these people will be leaving. They'll
• 36:54
  Speaker 2: slowly clean up this mess. It's going to take a while.
• 36:58
  Speaker 2: Now Paramount is in the good graces of the Trump administrations.
• 37:02
  Speaker 2: They don't want to lose that because they still want
• 37:05
  Speaker 2: to get Warner Brothers. Discovery. Looks like Netflix won the
• 37:09
  Speaker 2: bidding war to take over Warner Brothers, which includes a
• 37:13
  Speaker 2: lot of stuff. It includes HBO, it includes all kinds.
• 37:17
  Speaker 2: One of the reasons people want this company is the
• 37:20
  Speaker 2: Warner Brothers Studio is actually the biggest movie studio in Hollywood,
• 37:24
  Speaker 2: and it's a very important major production facility. And if
• 37:29
  Speaker 2: you're Netflix, you're making a lot of movies and TV
• 37:31
  Speaker 2: shows and all that kind of stuff. So you could
• 37:33
  Speaker 2: use that big studio. Also, you could use HBO, HBO Max,
• 37:38
  Speaker 2: all that stuff as a platform. There's a lot of
• 37:41
  Speaker 2: other stuff in CNN means absolutely nothing in this. It
• 37:45
  Speaker 2: doesn't make much money, it doesn't have any viewers. It's
• 37:48
  Speaker 2: a little tiny nothing thing in there. In fact, if
• 37:50
  Speaker 2: they could get rid of that in the deal, they would.
• 37:54
  Speaker 2: Netflix doesn't want it. But part of the deal Warner
• 37:59
  Speaker 2: Brothers discover if you buy the company, you got to
• 38:01
  Speaker 2: take CNN off our hands too. We don't want it either.
• 38:04
  Speaker 2: So although somebody buying this could maybe use it for something,
• 38:09
  Speaker 2: you know, you get rid of all the CNN stuff,
• 38:11
  Speaker 2: and it's still a cable network that's on all the
• 38:14
  Speaker 2: cable systems, but even that's not of much value nowadays.
• 38:17
  Speaker 2: So Netflix has won the bidding where now they may
• 38:20
  Speaker 2: still not get it. They may not get the deal
• 38:24
  Speaker 2: because the Trump administration would have to approve all of
• 38:26
  Speaker 2: this and they could block it. There's all sorts of
• 38:28
  Speaker 2: reasons to block the Netflix deal. I mean good business reasons.
• 38:32
  Speaker 2: It's too much of a monopoly and it would create
• 38:36
  Speaker 2: too big of one streaming service, so it could be
• 38:40
  Speaker 2: held up. And that means Paramount, who was the second
• 38:43
  Speaker 2: place bidder, could just raise their numbers a little and
• 38:47
  Speaker 2: get it. So they're still in the running. But if
• 38:50
  Speaker 2: Trump's mad at them over sixty minutes, that's not going
• 38:53
  Speaker 2: to help. The price now is like thirty dollars a year.
• 38:57
  Speaker 2: This will go to thirty five dollars a year because
• 39:01
  Speaker 2: you can spin off a lot of these cable assets
• 39:03
  Speaker 2: and probably get another three four dollars this year. So
• 39:07
  Speaker 2: don't be so sure Netflix gets it, and don't be
• 39:10
  Speaker 2: so sure the price doesn't go up in the end. Hey,
• 39:14
  Speaker 2: the New York Jets, there are a lot of Jets
• 39:19
  Speaker 2: fans out there, die hard Jets fans, been going on
• 39:22
  Speaker 2: their whole life. They love the Jets. You could try
• 39:26
  Speaker 2: to reason with them. It's like people with Trump arrangement syndrome.
• 39:29
  Speaker 2: You can't reason with them. It's the same thing with
• 39:34
  Speaker 2: the Mets. Mets fans, but every so often the Mets
• 39:38
  Speaker 2: get pretty good. Every so often the Mets are in
• 39:41
  Speaker 2: the playoffs in the World Series. Every so often but
• 39:44
  Speaker 2: with the Jets, nothing good ever happens. If you're going
• 39:49
  Speaker 2: to be a Jets fan, you're just asking for heartbreak
• 39:54
  Speaker 2: and heartache. And so they just got eliminated from the
• 39:58
  Speaker 2: playoffs yesterday, eliminated from a playoffs every year for fifteen years.
• 40:05
  Speaker 8: Now.
• 40:05
  Speaker 2: If you look back at the history of the Jets,
• 40:07
  Speaker 2: you got Joe Namath, You've got great Jets teams, you
• 40:10
  Speaker 2: got some great So what's the problem. It's one guy.
• 40:15
  Speaker 2: It's Woody Johnson, who's a very nice guy. He's a
• 40:18
  Speaker 2: friend of mine. I like the guy, but he's the
• 40:22
  Speaker 2: worst owner in the history of sports. He is a
• 40:27
  Speaker 2: great guy in real life. He's a generous guy. He's
• 40:31
  Speaker 2: done a lot of public service. He's a good guy.
• 40:33
  Speaker 2: Woody Johnson. He has no business owning a football team.
• 40:39
  Speaker 2: He's not just a bad owner. Everybody agrees. I'm not
• 40:42
  Speaker 2: an expert, but you talk to all the greatest football
• 40:45
  Speaker 2: expert sports experts, they all agree. He's the single worst
• 40:49
  Speaker 2: owner in the history of sports. This is the worst
• 40:53
  Speaker 2: franchise in the history of sports. There are people in
• 40:56
  Speaker 2: the professional sports football world saying that they should come
• 41:01
  Speaker 2: up with something in the NFL world where an owner
• 41:05
  Speaker 2: can be eliminated if he's that bad. In other words,
• 41:08
  Speaker 2: you know, they're very careful who they give the team to.
• 41:10
  Speaker 2: To become an NFL owner is like the ultimate club
• 41:13
  Speaker 2: of the world. To be accepted there. But there should
• 41:16
  Speaker 2: be some mechanism if a guy turns out to be
• 41:18
  Speaker 2: the worst owner on earth and it's hopeless, total disaster,
• 41:23
  Speaker 2: that the NFL can make him sell the team. There
• 41:25
  Speaker 2: should be something like that for a case like this.
• 41:27
  Speaker 2: This guy is so unbelievably horrendously bad as an owner. Now,
• 41:33
  Speaker 2: he bought the team for this is years ago for
• 41:37
  Speaker 2: about six hundred million. It's now worth I think it's
• 41:41
  Speaker 2: eight billion, but some are saying it's worth ten billion.
• 41:44
  Speaker 2: So if he's forced to sell, he would make like
• 41:48
  Speaker 2: a nine and a half million a billion, nine and
• 41:51
  Speaker 2: a half billion dollar profit. So I mean, if you
• 41:55
  Speaker 2: forced him to sell it, it's a great thing for
• 41:57
  Speaker 2: him too. I mean, he should be very happy. What's
• 42:00
  Speaker 2: the point of owning a team? Well, some people have
• 42:04
  Speaker 2: just really loved football in sports and they want to
• 42:06
  Speaker 2: they're really into Now this guy's that came. I think
• 42:08
  Speaker 2: it's more of a social thing. To be an NFL
• 42:11
  Speaker 2: team owner is quite an honor it's the highest honor
• 42:16
  Speaker 2: there is for a billionaire. But also it's a great thing.
• 42:21
  Speaker 2: Every Sunday, you host everybody in your big, huge suite.
• 42:24
  Speaker 2: You invite fifty one hundred friends. It's quite a thing.
• 42:27
  Speaker 2: So now you might be saying, well, wait a minute,
• 42:30
  Speaker 2: maybe he really is a great, great lover of football.
• 42:33
  Speaker 2: I don't think so. I mean, if he was that
• 42:36
  Speaker 2: into football, he'd know what he was doing. I mean,
• 42:39
  Speaker 2: nobody is worse at running, so it's pretty obvious he
• 42:42
  Speaker 2: doesn't know anything about football. And he spent money. He
• 42:48
  Speaker 2: goes out and gets these great players, sometimes Aaron Rodgers
• 42:50
  Speaker 2: and others. But you'll notice whenever they get a great
• 42:53
  Speaker 2: player and bring him in, they ruin the guy. I
• 42:56
  Speaker 2: don't care how good a quarterback you are, you are
• 42:58
  Speaker 2: ruined when you come to the Jets. It's the worst
• 43:02
  Speaker 2: team in the history of sports. Just for the good
• 43:05
  Speaker 2: of New York, for the good of football. He's got
• 43:09
  Speaker 2: to sell the team. You gotta sell. I know, it's
• 43:14
  Speaker 2: maybe make some kind of deal. You can still have
• 43:16
  Speaker 2: the luxury suite every week and invite all your friends
• 43:19
  Speaker 2: or something.
• 43:19
  Speaker 13: But.
• 43:23
  Speaker 2: You gotta sell the team. It would be the only
• 43:26
  Speaker 2: decent thing to do for Jets fans. Put them out
• 43:29
  Speaker 2: of their misery anyway, he's speaking of sports. Don Mattingly
• 43:34
  Speaker 2: did not make the Hall of Fame again this year.
• 43:36
  Speaker 2: That's like seven years in a row. He doesn't get
• 43:39
  Speaker 2: voted in or the Hall of Fame. That's not right. So, mom, Donnie,
• 43:44
  Speaker 2: his new plan now is no more sweeps, homeless sweeps.
• 43:50
  Speaker 2: You know, under Eric Adams, especially in the last year,
• 43:52
  Speaker 2: you'll notice you don't see a lot of homeless people
• 43:54
  Speaker 2: all You'll see one here and there, but you don't
• 43:57
  Speaker 2: see homeless camps. You don't see any of that. They've
• 43:59
  Speaker 2: been cleaning it up. It's a great, great plan, mom,
• 44:02
  Speaker 2: Donnie is going to eliminate that. He's going to allow
• 44:05
  Speaker 2: the homeless encampments. Being a crazy left wing socialist.
• 44:09
  Speaker 4: The issue with the encampment sweeps is that they are
• 44:12
  Speaker 4: simply pushing New Yorkers who are living in the cold
• 44:16
  Speaker 4: to another place where they will live in the cold.
• 44:18
  Speaker 4: In three hundred and sixty five days of twenty twenty four,
• 44:21
  Speaker 4: this administration did not connect a single New Yorker affected
• 44:25
  Speaker 4: by these sweeps with permanent housing. That is a failure.
• 44:30
  Speaker 2: Yeah, so that could be, but of course that's not.
• 44:33
  Speaker 2: There's two problems. One, you want to do something about
• 44:36
  Speaker 2: the homeless, get them some place to live. But the
• 44:39
  Speaker 2: other problem is you want to protect the area where
• 44:42
  Speaker 2: the camp is, if it's a Union Square or if
• 44:44
  Speaker 2: it's a wherever it is, if it's thirty fourth and fifth,
• 44:50
  Speaker 2: you don't want a homeless camp. Or you want to
• 44:51
  Speaker 2: protect the neighborhood, the block, the buildings. You get rid
• 44:54
  Speaker 2: of the homeless encampment. You've got to get rid of it,
• 44:57
  Speaker 2: otherwise you ruin the neighborhood. You do tremendous damage to businesses, apartments,
• 45:01
  Speaker 2: economic damage. It creates chaos. It's pretty obvious. And he
• 45:06
  Speaker 2: says that the homeless were never connected to permanent house.
• 45:10
  Speaker 2: Well that doesn't you know, Just get them off the street,
• 45:12
  Speaker 2: find them someplace. It doesn't have to be permanent. You
• 45:14
  Speaker 2: can work on that later.
• 45:15
  Speaker 14: If you are not connecting homeless New Yorkers to the
• 45:18
  Speaker 14: housing that they so desperately need, then you cannot deem
• 45:22
  Speaker 14: anything you're doing to be a success. We are going
• 45:25
  Speaker 14: to take an approach that understands its mission is connecting
• 45:29
  Speaker 14: those New Yorkers to housing, whether it's supportive housing, whether
• 45:32
  Speaker 14: it's rental housing, whatever kind of housing.
• 45:34
  Speaker 2: It is, well, see no, not really. Job number one
• 45:37
  Speaker 2: is clean up the street, clean up the chaos. That
• 45:40
  Speaker 2: was part of the plan. At some point you could
• 45:42
  Speaker 2: find them permanent housing. You know, you could say, well
• 45:44
  Speaker 2: what about the shelters. First of all, clean up the shelters.
• 45:48
  Speaker 2: You know, remember Deblasio would inspect the shelter and he'd say, well,
• 45:51
  Speaker 2: people can't go here. It's got rodents, it's got crime. Well,
• 45:57
  Speaker 2: as Juliani showed, you can fix that. You come in
• 46:00
  Speaker 2: next day with an army of exterminators, get rid of
• 46:04
  Speaker 2: the rodents, You come in with a bunch of security
• 46:07
  Speaker 2: and get rid of the You can do that now
• 46:09
  Speaker 2: they find. The other thing is the homeless will not
• 46:11
  Speaker 2: go into the shelters. They won't stay in the shelters.
• 46:15
  Speaker 2: Why because you're not allowed to use drugs, you're not
• 46:18
  Speaker 2: allowed to drink in there. Now, most of the homeless,
• 46:21
  Speaker 2: they're vast majority. It's not about economics, it's about addiction.
• 46:26
  Speaker 2: They're addicts drugs, alcohol, crack whatever. That's why they're out there.
• 46:31
  Speaker 2: But Adams is pretty good with his sweep the streets.
• 46:34
  Speaker 2: If he's stating he's.
• 46:35
  Speaker 7: No longer going to implement a smart policy on our part,
• 46:40
  Speaker 7: New Yorkers are about to see the repercussions of that.
• 46:44
  Speaker 2: Yeah, Now again why Democrats are incapable of learning anything.
• 46:50
  Speaker 2: They've done this in other cities where they don't do
• 46:53
  Speaker 2: the homeless sweeps, they leave the encampment. It's about twenty
• 46:55
  Speaker 2: other cities have tried this every single time. It's absolutely disaster.
• 47:01
  Speaker 2: So you've tested it twenty times. It's a total disaster.
• 47:04
  Speaker 2: How could you not learn anything from the tests? But
• 47:07
  Speaker 2: that's Democrats left wing. They don't learn. You know, even
• 47:12
  Speaker 2: germs learn germs actually, you know, they learn. They changed.
• 47:18
  Speaker 2: They they you know, you get a virus, it mutates,
• 47:21
  Speaker 2: They know how to mutate. Change. Democrats forget it. They
• 47:25
  Speaker 2: can't do it.
• 47:26
  Speaker 7: We stated it was inhumane for people to live on
• 47:29
  Speaker 7: the streets, human waste, drug path finalia, a schizophrenic bipolar
• 47:34
  Speaker 7: living on our subways, living in our streets. We say, no,
• 47:37
  Speaker 7: you deserve to be inside with care. Now, if he's
• 47:40
  Speaker 7: stating he's no longer going to implement a smart policy
• 47:45
  Speaker 7: on our part, New Yorkers are going to see the
• 47:48
  Speaker 7: repercussions of that.
• 47:49
  Speaker 2: Yeah, but you can't tell Mamdani anything. It's impossible. But
• 47:54
  Speaker 2: Adams has actually done a good job. Now, Randy Mastro,
• 47:58
  Speaker 2: he's the deputy first mayor, which means he really runs everything.
• 48:02
  Speaker 2: He runs city, all top guy. Randy Mastro. He was
• 48:06
  Speaker 2: first deputy mayor under Rudy Giuliani. So he's That's one
• 48:10
  Speaker 2: reason you saw everything change a year ago when Randy
• 48:12
  Speaker 2: Mastro came in. That's how everything got better and better
• 48:15
  Speaker 2: and better. But he's put in his resident resignation for
• 48:20
  Speaker 2: New Year's Eve. He leaves because the next day, New
• 48:23
  Speaker 2: Year's Day, Mom Donnie takes over the next day, how
• 48:29
  Speaker 2: bad will it get? I don't know.
• 48:32
  Speaker 3: You know.
• 48:34
  Speaker 2: One thing about mom Donnie. Like a lot of these guys,
• 48:36
  Speaker 2: and I remember, he's very, very very Deblasio. Like Deblasio.
• 48:41
  Speaker 2: You don't remember this, but he ran as a socialist.
• 48:43
  Speaker 2: He ran with all the same crazy kooky socialism, left
• 48:47
  Speaker 2: wing stuff. But as soon as he got elected, he
• 48:49
  Speaker 2: started cozying up to every billionaire in the city. Deblasio's
• 48:55
  Speaker 2: campaign was anti billionaire, but it remember it was about
• 48:57
  Speaker 2: there's two New York's, one for the zillionaires, one for
• 49:00
  Speaker 2: everybody else. We got to go after these billionaires. And
• 49:03
  Speaker 2: as soon as he got elected, de Blasio did go
• 49:07
  Speaker 2: after the billionaires, but in a different way. It's all
• 49:11
  Speaker 2: with my own eyes. Anytime he saw one of these billionaires,
• 49:14
  Speaker 2: you go right up to them, Hey, how are you
• 49:16
  Speaker 2: You have my cell number? No, let me give you
• 49:19
  Speaker 2: my cell number. They knew what that meant. They meant
• 49:21
  Speaker 2: that means you can call them anytime you need anything.
• 49:23
  Speaker 2: He'll take care of you, and they know what it means.
• 49:26
  Speaker 2: It means also, a guy's gonna call you every couple
• 49:28
  Speaker 2: of weeks and want some money a donation. That's normal.
• 49:34
  Speaker 2: The billionaire will get a call, can you do fifty? Yeah,
• 49:38
  Speaker 2: I can do fifty. It means fifty thousand, all right,
• 49:41
  Speaker 2: We'll tell you where to send it, and they'd give
• 49:43
  Speaker 2: you the name of a pack. They want you to
• 49:44
  Speaker 2: donate it too, And every couple of months you do that,
• 49:49
  Speaker 2: and then whenever you needed something, you could call well, mom.
• 49:54
  Speaker 2: Donnie has already started down this road. Now he claims
• 49:57
  Speaker 2: it's for his transition team, but he went around Mamdannian Company,
• 50:03
  Speaker 2: CosIng up to all the billionaires. He wanted to raise
• 50:05
  Speaker 2: some money for the transition team, and believe it or not,
• 50:09
  Speaker 2: in the last couple of weeks he raised four million
• 50:11
  Speaker 2: from these billionaires. He's been all over them and he's
• 50:16
  Speaker 2: continued to do it. He's been doing these private fundraisers
• 50:19
  Speaker 2: with billionaires. There was one in Michael, I can't pronounce
• 50:25
  Speaker 2: this guy's name, billionaire ceo crypto guy held a fundraiser
• 50:29
  Speaker 2: in his Greenwich Village home. The next day, Mam Donnie
• 50:32
  Speaker 2: was in a private Tribbee Tribeca home where the Hunt
• 50:36
  Speaker 2: oil eras Lee Hunt Hendricks, hosted another big fundraiser for him.
• 50:43
  Speaker 2: Two uptown events, one lower east Side. These are all zillionaires, billionaires,
• 50:48
  Speaker 2: thousand dollars a ticket, millions raised from these donors. Now,
• 50:53
  Speaker 2: what does the transition team need so much money for? Well,
• 50:57
  Speaker 2: as they said, most of the funds will go toward
• 51:00
  Speaker 2: office operations, which is fine, but that's more like forty
• 51:06
  Speaker 2: thousand to operate the office. You don't need four million
• 51:08
  Speaker 2: to do that. You really don't. So they were raising
• 51:12
  Speaker 2: millions and millions. That's a good sign. That's a good sign.
• 51:14
  Speaker 2: It means he's even more Deblasio like than we thought. Hey,
• 51:18
  Speaker 2: once again, here's the real estate report. Sales are booming
• 51:22
  Speaker 2: in New York. Don't think everybody's leaving. In the last month,
• 51:26
  Speaker 2: eight hundred and sixty nine contracts have been signed. In
• 51:30
  Speaker 2: the real high end, the super luxury four million dollar
• 51:33
  Speaker 2: plus apartment sales were very strong. Just last week, forty
• 51:38
  Speaker 2: one contracts were signed. That's a lot shows buyer confidence.
• 51:41
  Speaker 2: This is all since the election. Many skyscrapers are now
• 51:46
  Speaker 2: being going to be built. As I mentioned, JP Morgan
• 51:50
  Speaker 2: Chase just opened this four billion dollar unbelievable, unbelievable skyscraper
• 51:54
  Speaker 2: where ten thousand works. They're now looking for at least one,
• 51:57
  Speaker 2: maybe two new skyscrapers. They're going to build nearby on
• 52:01
  Speaker 2: the corner of fifty second and Park. They're tearing down
• 52:06
  Speaker 2: like four buildings there to build a ninety story skyscraper.
• 52:10
  Speaker 2: So these big real estate guys, they got a lot
• 52:12
  Speaker 2: of faith in New York City. And these guys are
• 52:16
  Speaker 2: that's how they got to be billionaires. They're always right
• 52:18

  Speaker 2: some calls. Let's go to Vincent in Brooklyn. Vincent, how you.
• 54:27
  Speaker 3: Doing, Good morning, Malco, I'm okay, good morning, Marah Mark.
• 54:31
  Speaker 3: The first thing I want to say before I get
• 54:33
  Speaker 3: to my main point, Jessica Tish is going down the
• 54:36
  Speaker 3: wrong road. She apologized on behalf of her brother because
• 54:40
  Speaker 3: her brother had a Jewish philanthropic meeting said that Mondamie
• 54:46
  Speaker 3: was the enemy of the Jewish people. And she jumps
• 54:49
  Speaker 3: in and apologizes on his bef. I would never accept that.
• 54:53
  Speaker 3: I tell her now, I wouldn't vote for I'd vote
• 54:56
  Speaker 3: for the brother. Part of the problem with Mondamie's plan
• 54:59
  Speaker 3: is I get calls from the city and from the
• 55:02
  Speaker 3: federal government to rent to homeless people, to Section eight,
• 55:07
  Speaker 3: to drug addicts, to this, that and the other. And
• 55:10
  Speaker 3: the problem is is you rent to those people, and
• 55:14
  Speaker 3: they even guarantee that they're gonna pay you the rent
• 55:16
  Speaker 3: and everything. What happens to the other tenants when they're
• 55:20
  Speaker 3: in the building. What kind of a mess they're going
• 55:23
  Speaker 3: to make. My father years ago, almost fifty years ago,
• 55:27
  Speaker 3: in one of his buildings that he owned, very large
• 55:29
  Speaker 3: apartment building, he had a person or a woman who
• 55:33
  Speaker 3: was a degenerate. She was on welfare. She didn't pay
• 55:37
  Speaker 3: her rent for two years. My father finally got her
• 55:41
  Speaker 3: in court and house in court right and the judge
• 55:44
  Speaker 3: order and the city was going to pay, was going
• 55:47
  Speaker 3: to give her the money to pay the back rent.
• 55:49
  Speaker 3: To pay the back rent, she flipped the bird on
• 55:53
  Speaker 3: the judge, told the judge where to go, and the
• 55:56
  Speaker 3: judge is shoot in order. She flipped the bird. My
• 56:01
  Speaker 3: father winded up. He actually died before they could get
• 56:06
  Speaker 3: the tenant out and the new landlord who bought the building.
• 56:09
  Speaker 3: He eventually sold it because of this tenant. That's the
• 56:13
  Speaker 3: problem with these people. They have to live Mark in
• 56:17
  Speaker 3: a supervised dormitory where they have to get up at
• 56:21
  Speaker 3: a certain time where they have to to go to
• 56:23
  Speaker 3: work or.
• 56:24
  Speaker 2: Vincent, that's an excellent point. Excellent point.
• 56:26
  Speaker 3: We gotta go to the dormitory. Mark, they can't live
• 56:29
  Speaker 3: in regular housing.
• 56:30
  Speaker 2: Excellent call. As always, Vincent, thanks for calling. Hey. When
• 56:32
  Speaker 2: we come back, Miranda Divine will be with us next
• 56:36
  Speaker 2: lots to talk to her about coming up on seven
• 56:38
  Speaker 2: to ten wor in.
• 56:41
  Speaker 1: Mark on Demand by setting a presead for his podcast
• 56:45

• 56:59

• 57:01
  Speaker 2: she's the best selling author. If you haven't read the
• 57:03

• 57:06
  Speaker 2: the Biden administration. Joe, you got to get this book,
• 57:09
  Speaker 2: The Big Guy. It's a huge bestseller. If you need
• 57:11
  Speaker 2: a good Christmas present, the book The Big Guy by

  Speaker 2: Miranda Divine. Also she does one of the best podcasts around.

• 57:25
  Speaker 2: Miranda Divine. How you doing? Nope, I don't hear Miranda Divine.
• 57:33
  Speaker 2: Are you there? Oh there? You are great to talk
• 57:38
  Speaker 2: to you. Where do we even start? Hey, this pipe
• 57:42
  Speaker 2: bomber who tried to blow up the RNC and the DNC.
• 57:45
  Speaker 2: The Trump administration catches the guy. Three week investigation. It's great.
• 57:51
  Speaker 2: What happened For the last five years, nothing happened. Nobody
• 57:54
  Speaker 2: looked for the guy.
• 57:56
  Speaker 15: Well, I mean that's the big question. And I think cash,
• 58:00
  Speaker 15: Betel and Pambondi alluded to that when they said that
• 58:03
  Speaker 15: we had no new information, just fresh eyes, and the
• 58:08
  Speaker 15: information seemed to.
• 58:09
  Speaker 13: Be there right in front of them. When you look
• 58:12
  Speaker 13: at the.
• 58:14
  Speaker 15: Court documents the other day on Friday, when this guy,
• 58:18
  Speaker 15: Brian Cole Junior, was arraigned, it shows that they got
• 58:23
  Speaker 15: him through his cell phone. It pinned seven times on
• 58:28
  Speaker 15: that night of January five, twenty twenty one, around the
• 58:32
  Speaker 15: time that the surveillance cameras showed this gray hooded figure
• 58:38
  Speaker 15: wandering around planting pipe bombs just half a mile from
• 58:43
  Speaker 15: the Capitol and it's you know, the guy is seen
• 58:48
  Speaker 15: on his phone in these videos several times or the
• 58:52
  Speaker 15: person and the phone companies have said, yeah, there it is.
• 58:58
  Speaker 15: And they knew that back in eight of twenty twenty one,
• 59:01
  Speaker 15: at the latest, April of twenty twenty one, the FBI
• 59:04
  Speaker 15: had that information. But something strange happened to that investigation.
• 59:10
  Speaker 15: They had thirteen FBI special agents on the pipe bomb
• 59:14
  Speaker 15: case initially, and then they just they just deprioritized it.
• 59:20
  Speaker 15: I think, you know, Chris Ray ends up going before
• 59:24
  Speaker 15: the Senate on March the first and gets hammered by
• 59:29
  Speaker 15: Democrats demanding to know why he hasn't arrested more grandmothers
• 59:35
  Speaker 15: for trespassing outside the capital, more Trump supporters, And you know,
• 59:40
  Speaker 15: maybe it's as simple as that, but the FBI was
• 59:43
  Speaker 15: not looking for this pipe bomber because the answer was
• 59:48
  Speaker 15: staring them in the face. And they spent a lot
• 59:51
  Speaker 15: of resources doing a lot of stupid, well, I don't know, stupid,
• 59:55
  Speaker 15: but you know, difficult things, trying to track down you know,
• 1:00:00
  Speaker 15: who bought batteries nine volt batteries, and who bought you know,
• 1:00:05
  Speaker 15: the cap that was end cap on the pipelom et cetera.
• 1:00:08
  Speaker 15: When they were rounding up the grandmothers from J six
• 1:00:14
  Speaker 15: using cell.
• 1:00:14
  Speaker 13: Phone data, so very strange.
• 1:00:17
  Speaker 15: And then there was the case that the the FBI
• 1:00:22
  Speaker 15: guy in charge of the whole investigation, the head of
• 1:00:25
  Speaker 15: the Washington FBI Field Office, a guy retired now Stephen
• 1:00:29
  Speaker 15: Duane Tutwono. He testified to Congress and in a closed
• 1:00:36
  Speaker 15: door hearing and he said, oh, we got some some
• 1:00:40
  Speaker 15: of this cell phone data, but.
• 1:00:41
  Speaker 13: It was corrupted. Maybe the culprit was, you know, in
• 1:00:44
  Speaker 13: that cell phone data.
• 1:00:46
  Speaker 15: And yet the cell phone companies said no, no, we
• 1:00:49
  Speaker 15: didn't hand over anything that was corrupted, and the FBI
• 1:00:53
  Speaker 15: never complained that.
• 1:00:54
  Speaker 13: It was corrupted. So that's another little mystery.
• 1:00:58
  Speaker 2: Is it this simple that when they looked at this
• 1:01:01
  Speaker 2: pipe bombing case because he tried to blow up the
• 1:01:03
  Speaker 2: RNC and the DNC, that it was pretty clear it
• 1:01:06
  Speaker 2: was not going to turn out to be a Trump supporter,
• 1:01:08
  Speaker 2: so it didn't fit the narrative, so they just let
• 1:01:10
  Speaker 2: it go for that reason.
• 1:01:12
  Speaker 15: Yes, and maybe they knew that the suspect was a
• 1:01:15
  Speaker 15: young black man at the time, he would have been
• 1:01:17
  Speaker 15: twenty five and probably not a MAGA supporter.
• 1:01:22
  Speaker 13: Didn't fit with their narrative.
• 1:01:24
  Speaker 15: That January six was an insurrection committed by ultra maga
• 1:01:28
  Speaker 15: white supremacists. You know, Joe Biden dined out on that.
• 1:01:33
  Speaker 13: For the next four years.
• 1:01:34
  Speaker 15: They thought that January six was the nail in the
• 1:01:38
  Speaker 15: coffin of Trump's career prospects, and then they just to
• 1:01:41
  Speaker 15: make sure, they decided to bang eighty one different indictments
• 1:01:46
  Speaker 15: on him, and none of it worked. And now they're
• 1:01:51
  Speaker 15: in trouble and about to be found out. Not that
• 1:01:53
  Speaker 15: they really care because five years.
• 1:01:55
  Speaker 13: Have gone past almost and I.
• 1:01:59
  Speaker 15: Guess they figured they're home free.
• 1:02:01
  Speaker 2: Yeah, but they always think they got the nail in
• 1:02:03
  Speaker 2: the coffin. They think the Epstein file that's the nail
• 1:02:05
  Speaker 2: in the coffin, the Narco boats, that's They're always wrong
• 1:02:09
  Speaker 2: every time. How Come they don't learn from their.
• 1:02:11
  Speaker 15: Mistakes because they actually get benefit from them. Oh, because
• 1:02:16
  Speaker 15: they don't destroy him, but they certainly knock off a
• 1:02:20
  Speaker 15: bit of support. You know, suddenly people start grumbling the
• 1:02:23
  Speaker 15: White House needs to turn its attention to refuting the lies.
• 1:02:28
  Speaker 15: It's just it's all about tying him down. I always
• 1:02:31
  Speaker 15: think of Donald Trump as like you know, Gulliver and
• 1:02:35
  Speaker 15: Gulliver's troubles and he's got all the little midgets just
• 1:02:38
  Speaker 15: tying him down, and he breaks free. He always breaks free,
• 1:02:42
  Speaker 15: or or he's like the bull in the ring and
• 1:02:45
  Speaker 15: the little guys come out come of what they're called.
• 1:02:48
  Speaker 15: But they throw the darts at him and the spears
• 1:02:51
  Speaker 15: and just weaking him up before the Matador, And of
• 1:02:54
  Speaker 15: course the Matador is an old broken down hack which
• 1:02:57
  Speaker 15: was Joe Biden. But by that stage their damage had
• 1:03:01
  Speaker 15: been done. You know, they do inflict Don Trump, which
• 1:03:04
  Speaker 15: stands a lot, but he does get batter than bruised
• 1:03:07
  Speaker 15: because he's human. And this is what they do when
• 1:03:11
  Speaker 15: it works for them, and they're just playing the same
• 1:03:14
  Speaker 15: old playbook with a few different characters.
• 1:03:16
  Speaker 2: Huh, that's interesting. Now, whatever you have mad at Trump
• 1:03:20
  Speaker 2: for the blowing up the Narco boats, whatever it is,
• 1:03:24
  Speaker 2: Biden Obama did exactly the same thing with drone strikes. Whatever,
• 1:03:28
  Speaker 2: whatever you're pointing to, you can point to the Biden
• 1:03:30
  Speaker 2: did it, Obama did it. How Come that doesn't register
• 1:03:33
  Speaker 2: with MSNBC.
• 1:03:34
  Speaker 15: Viewers, Oh, because they just call it what about ism
• 1:03:39
  Speaker 15: and they just focus on the outrage in front of them.
• 1:03:42
  Speaker 13: Yeah, it's an.
• 1:03:44
  Speaker 15: Old worn playbook and luckily MS now as they call
• 1:03:49
  Speaker 15: themselves just have you know, dwindling the audience and dwindling influence,
• 1:03:55
  Speaker 15: and the same with CNN. So I mean there's fewer
• 1:04:00
  Speaker 15: people that they can propagandaze. I thought it was rather
• 1:04:03
  Speaker 15: disturbing in that FBI report I wrote about last week
• 1:04:07
  Speaker 15: from a group of sort of whistleblower type people. They
• 1:04:13
  Speaker 15: said that every television in the different field offices at
• 1:04:18
  Speaker 15: the FBI is tuned into MS NOW and CNN, but
• 1:04:25
  Speaker 15: never Fox and so they've got that steady drone. It
• 1:04:30
  Speaker 15: is like propaganda. It's like Radio Rwanda before the Civil war.
• 1:04:35
  Speaker 15: You know, you just keep on the drum beat the
• 1:04:37
  Speaker 15: other side. They're evil, they're doing bad things.
• 1:04:41
  Speaker 13: Donald Trump's a monster.
• 1:04:43
  Speaker 15: And you know you get that pumped into your head
• 1:04:45
  Speaker 15: twenty four to seven or every minute that you're at work,
• 1:04:48
  Speaker 15: and then you go home and do the same thing.
• 1:04:51
  Speaker 13: It has to have an effect.
• 1:04:52
  Speaker 2: Yeah, Now, the story was the good men and women
• 1:04:55
  Speaker 2: in the FBI. It was just a bad left wing
• 1:04:57
  Speaker 2: cooks on the ninth floor there with Cami. But now
• 1:05:00
  Speaker 2: we're hearing there were a lot of left wing cooks
• 1:05:02
  Speaker 2: in the ranks put there by Muller and call me
• 1:05:04
  Speaker 2: through the years, I think you.
• 1:05:06
  Speaker 15: Reported that, Yes, yes, and you know it's because it
• 1:05:11
  Speaker 15: was a deliberate decision by Muller. I'm not sure he
• 1:05:13
  Speaker 15: particularly wanted lefties, but he certainly wanted university educated agents,
• 1:05:19
  Speaker 15: and so he really revolutionized the ranks. And when you
• 1:05:25
  Speaker 15: bring in people from the universities who've done soft social sciences,
• 1:05:29
  Speaker 15: inevitably they're going to be propagandized lefties. And that changed
• 1:05:34
  Speaker 15: the tenor I'm told from some old hands of the.
• 1:05:38
  Speaker 13: Bureau.
• 1:05:39
  Speaker 15: And then, of course Comy was a bad guy, and
• 1:05:44
  Speaker 15: they started to prioritize high So of all the professions,
• 1:05:51
  Speaker 15: of all the university educated professions, who are the most
• 1:05:56
  Speaker 15: left wing, well, you'd have social workers and teachers, and
• 1:06:00
  Speaker 15: they prioritized teachers. So there you have it, and teachers
• 1:06:04
  Speaker 15: have got the added disadvantage.
• 1:06:08
  Speaker 13: There are great teachers.
• 1:06:09
  Speaker 15: I Am never going to take that away from them,
• 1:06:11
  Speaker 15: but they would know themselves, and they tell me themselves
• 1:06:15
  Speaker 15: that they are surrounded by lefties who are also very
• 1:06:18
  Speaker 15: arrogant because they're used to having classrooms of children who
• 1:06:22
  Speaker 15: they can command, and so they waltzed into the FBI
• 1:06:26
  Speaker 15: like they own the place.
• 1:06:28
  Speaker 2: Interesting. Well, Miranda Devine, great work as always. Now you
• 1:06:32

  Speaker 13: For the good things.
• 1:06:56
  Speaker 15: She's against big tech, censorship and all sorts of government
• 1:06:59
  Speaker 15: own reached. She's waded in where others fear to tread.
• 1:07:04
  Speaker 13: And she's also voter integrity.
• 1:07:06
  Speaker 15: That's one of her big things and I think she's
• 1:07:09
  Speaker 15: going to do a lot of good. There are a
• 1:07:11
  Speaker 15: lot of states are resisting her demands that they hand
• 1:07:14
  Speaker 15: over their voter rolls to make sure that they're clean,
