Latest / Curtis Sliwa & Larry Mendte In The Morning / Hour 3: Senator Rick Scott went off!
Transcript
- 0:00Speaker 1: So it was a three hour grilling of the evil
- 0:04Speaker 1: doctor Frauci. The Republicans just poured forth and the Democrats
- 0:09Speaker 1: played prevent defense for their hero doctor Fauci. And when
- 0:15Speaker 1: it was Senator Rich Scott from Florida who had his
- 0:19Speaker 1: opportunity right away, Larry Natalie and our audience, it reminded
- 0:24Speaker 1: me that there was one state who defied doctor Fauci
- 0:29Speaker 1: again and again and again, and it was through the
- 0:31Speaker 1: governorship in Tallahassee, and that was DeSantis. When Fauci said
- 0:37Speaker 1: you have to distance, you know, more than six feet,
- 0:41Speaker 1: the Santa said no, when you have to wear masks,
- 0:45Speaker 1: DeSantis said no. When you can't go to the beach
- 0:48Speaker 1: and frolic and mingle, DeSantis said no. And the man
- 0:52Speaker 1: who had the most to worry about in terms of
- 0:55Speaker 1: the health and care in long term nursing home care
- 0:59Speaker 1: units wasn't so much cuomole or half in the bag
- 1:03Speaker 1: Murphy in New Jersey or even out in California, Governor
- 1:09Speaker 1: god Newsome, it was disantus per capita per person had
- 1:14Speaker 1: more elderly people in long term nursing home care units.
- 1:18Speaker 1: And he says, no, we're not going to do what
- 1:20Speaker 1: they're doing in those other states because they're following your
- 1:26Speaker 1: total instructions. You're not infallible, you're wrong, and we're proving
- 1:30Speaker 1: you every day in Florida to be wrong. And remember
- 1:33Speaker 1: how people would get on a plane and they'd be
- 1:36Speaker 1: all laid up like a sphinx, like a mummy, and
- 1:39Speaker 1: they'd be sitting away from one another on the plane
- 1:42Speaker 1: and they'd be so and they get off the plane,
- 1:45Speaker 1: either Palm Beach County or Broward County or Dade County
- 1:50Speaker 1: or up in Tampa Saint Petersburg, and was like paradise. Oh,
- 1:55Speaker 1: you don't have to wear masks. Oh you're gonna associate.
- 1:57Speaker 1: Oh you can walk around, you don't have to distance yourself.
- 2:01Speaker 1: And who was proven correct? DeSantis and Florida totally defied
- 2:07Speaker 1: doctor Fauci, who was considered infallible at that point.
- 2:10Speaker 2: I just watched a video of DeSantis when he was
- 2:13Speaker 2: giving a speech during the pandemic, and it was at
- 2:17Speaker 2: a college and he walked up and all the students
- 2:20Speaker 2: standing there had masks on, and he walks up and
- 2:23Speaker 2: you can hear him on the microphone going, what are
- 2:25Speaker 2: you wearing masks for? Why are you wearing masks? You
- 2:28Speaker 2: all look ridiculous. And he goes, well, look, you can
- 2:31Speaker 2: do what you want if you want to wear the mask,
- 2:32Speaker 2: but you don't need them. And this is silly, and
- 2:35Speaker 2: he's mad, and he turns around and one by one,
- 2:37Speaker 2: every one of them takes off their masks. No, he
- 2:41Speaker 2: lives exactly what he says. He's not a politician that
- 2:44Speaker 2: says one things or followers the leader. I think, by
- 2:48Speaker 2: the way, you don't hear about him anymore, but I
- 2:50Speaker 2: think he'd be a wonderful president. Now let's get to
- 2:53Speaker 2: Rick Scott, which you mentioned that the top Rick Scott
- 2:58Speaker 2: was affected personally by this, and so he started off
- 3:03Speaker 2: with that.
- 3:04Speaker 3: Here's how you impacted my family, people close to me.
- 3:07Speaker 3: I have daughters with children. You can't imagine the questions
- 3:10Speaker 3: they had around vaccines for their kids and themselves and
- 3:13Speaker 3: the pressure, the unbelievable pressure to make the right decision
- 3:16Speaker 3: for their health. I can tell you're pregnant. Women who
- 3:19Speaker 3: worked with me were so scared because every time they
- 3:22Speaker 3: went to the doctor they were told something different about
- 3:24Speaker 3: taking the vaccine.
- 3:26Speaker 2: And you causes yeah, constantly, he said things that this
- 3:30Speaker 2: man caused. And he started off by saying, look, I
- 3:35Speaker 2: can tell by the memoirs you think you're a hero,
- 3:38Speaker 2: You're not so.
- 3:39Speaker 4: Doctor Faucio.
- 3:40Speaker 3: Your injury is made clear that you love being a hero,
- 3:43Speaker 3: a celebrity, and here having the eyes of the world
- 3:46Speaker 3: upon you. You loved every newspaper profile, every photo shoot,
- 3:50Speaker 3: every fancy dinner with the elites. To ma Americans who
- 3:53Speaker 3: lost family members, who lost trust in her federal grimment.
- 3:56Speaker 4: You're not a hero.
- 3:57Speaker 3: Unfortunately, you're a villain.
- 4:00Speaker 2: Right while people were dying, he was allowed having dinners
- 4:05Speaker 2: will while restaurants had to close down, Not for doctor Fauci.
- 4:09Speaker 2: He could get in and have a dinner with somebody.
- 4:11Speaker 2: But maybe the most pertinent part of this, which is
- 4:15Speaker 2: something we're not talking about, his chief advisor during COVID
- 4:21Speaker 2: had to go to prison. How did he escape that?
- 4:25Speaker 3: To begin, I'd like to talk about your relationship with
- 4:27Speaker 3: David Morinz. He was the senior advisor in the NIAID
- 4:31Speaker 3: office of the director, your office for sixteen years. He
- 4:35Speaker 3: was your friend. He was a frequent guest at your house.
- 4:38Speaker 3: You reportly co offered over fifty scientific articles with him.
- 4:43Speaker 3: You turn to him first right after COVID nineteen first
- 4:46Speaker 3: occurred earlier this year, the Department Justice charged him with
- 4:50Speaker 3: conspiracy against the United States in addition to other charges,
- 4:53Speaker 3: as part of a conspiracy to conceal information and false
- 4:56Speaker 3: fire records to suppress alternative theories about the origin of
- 5:00Speaker 3: COVID nineteen.
- 5:02Speaker 2: Under the direction of Fauci, and Fauci goes free, but
- 5:06Speaker 2: Moranz goes to prison because he was just doing what
- 5:10Speaker 2: Fauci asked him to do, and that was hide the
- 5:13Speaker 2: evidence that he was screwing up and he was killing people.
- 5:16Speaker 2: I'm so glad that came out. By the way, Moran
- 5:19Speaker 2: should be the next person they call. I hope these
- 5:22Speaker 2: hearings don't end. I hope he's up there next. And
- 5:25Speaker 2: doctor Burke's as well, should be up there. She's been
- 5:28Speaker 2: out there speaking. We should play some of her next week.
- 5:31Speaker 2: Doctor Burk's with the vulging around her neck. She had
- 5:35Speaker 2: the scarf. Yeah, and she's not protecting Fauci anymore. She's not.
- 5:39Speaker 2: So she's going to be really interesting to hear from.
- 5:43Speaker 3: All the evidence is right here, and you still can't
- 5:45Speaker 3: bring yourself to tell the truth or apologize because you
- 5:47Speaker 3: received an autopim pardon from a staffer and the Biden
- 5:50Speaker 3: White House. If we have another pandemic tomorrow. Millions could
- 5:53Speaker 3: die because of what you did. What you did to
- 5:55Speaker 3: make Americans lose trust in their government when it comes
- 5:58Speaker 3: to medicine and healthcare.
- 6:00Speaker 2: What he just said there at the ending is something
- 6:02Speaker 2: that is the untold story of all of this. So
- 6:05Speaker 2: many Americans, especially the young, as my sons, because of
- 6:11Speaker 2: that pandemic, because of what it did to them, they
- 6:14Speaker 2: don't trust the government at all. No, and so the
- 6:18Speaker 2: next time something like this is going to happen, they're
- 6:21Speaker 2: not going to listen.
- 6:22Speaker 1: Well, you know me, I never trust the government, no
- 6:24Speaker 1: matter who's in charge. I say, you question authority, and
- 6:27Speaker 1: people were not questioning him. Those that were were shut down.
- 6:31Speaker 1: So if I wanted my opinion to be heard, and
- 6:33Speaker 1: let's say I was qualified to have that discourse, you know,
- 6:36Speaker 1: in terms of my credentials, my studies, my history. You know,
- 6:41Speaker 1: Zuckerberg Facebook because of his conversation with doctor Fauci no banned,
- 6:47Speaker 1: other forms banned. It's almost like his word was as
- 6:51Speaker 1: if it was coming from God him myself, and you
- 6:54Speaker 1: could not distill it. And I get the sense in
- 6:58Speaker 1: reading all these materials now that we have available to us,
- 7:00Speaker 1: As you mentioned, Larry, the many emails and most recently
- 7:04Speaker 1: his own words, his own diaries, that he had a
- 7:08Speaker 1: distrust of ordinary people. He almost said directly that it's
- 7:14Speaker 1: impossible to sort out for the general public to understand
- 7:18Speaker 1: what I know. And yet here was the scientist, no
- 7:22Speaker 1: medical expert, although he had medical experts obviously in the
- 7:25Speaker 1: state government, who was completely contradicting doctor Fauci. And they
- 7:30Speaker 1: didn't do it privately, they did it very publicly. So
- 7:33Speaker 1: we are going to defy you. This is not science.
- 7:37Speaker 1: And that's remember when Fauci.
- 7:38Speaker 5: Started saying, I am science. Well the eubris the hoots.
- 7:42Speaker 5: Oh no, that's the way. That's the way all doctors feel. Yes,
- 7:46Speaker 5: they feel like they're God. Doctors feel like they're God.
- 7:48Speaker 2: And you just said a second ago, I always questioned authority,
- 7:51Speaker 2: but not we don't when it comes to doctors. And
- 7:54Speaker 2: you just told the story to doctor Leiderman that you
- 7:56Speaker 2: trusted a doctor, and that doctor I'm so sorry that happened.
- 8:01Speaker 2: I mean, the doctor didn't do you right, but you
- 8:03Speaker 2: trusted because he was a doctor. And finally you went
- 8:06Speaker 2: to doctor Liederman. Everybody trusted Fauci because we were told
- 8:10Speaker 2: he was the god. We were told that he was
- 8:12Speaker 2: the one we had to listen to, and he took
- 8:15Speaker 2: advantage of that for his own good.
- 8:18Speaker 1: The change came about when people went to Florida, when
- 8:22Speaker 1: people wanted to visit their relatives because they fail. Oh
- 8:25Speaker 1: my god, you know my mom my, dad, I may
- 8:27Speaker 1: never see them again, but we can go to Florida,
- 8:29Speaker 1: And they assumed the worst, and they went there and
- 8:32Speaker 1: they said there was no lockdown. Yeah, it says if
- 8:35Speaker 1: things are normal, how it's the same freaking air.
- 8:38Speaker 2: I get it. But unfortunately, not everybody was able to
- 8:41Speaker 2: do that. It was very difficult to travel at that time.
- 8:44Speaker 2: So you're going to you couldn't really go to Florida
- 8:47Speaker 2: unless you're going to drive there. And so that's a
- 8:50Speaker 2: minimum amount of people the rest of us. And I'm
- 8:52Speaker 2: I'm just as guilty as everybody else because I had
- 8:55Speaker 2: no idea what I was supposed to do.
- 8:57Speaker 1: So you trust, what do you do?
- 8:59Speaker 2: You end up trying us your government, And Fauci took
- 9:02Speaker 2: advantage of that trust to enrich himself and to hide
- 9:07Speaker 2: the fact that he caused this pandemic. That man, if
- 9:11Speaker 2: anybody should be executed, it should be doctor Fauci. But
- 9:14Speaker 2: the fact that he is free and living and smug
- 9:18Speaker 2: is sickening to me.
- 9:20Speaker 1: Let me ask you a question, because you're half in
- 9:22Speaker 1: the bag Governor at the time Murphy, you remember he
- 9:24Speaker 1: was having that interview with Tucker Carlson when he was
- 9:27Speaker 1: on Fox News Channel and he said liquor stores were
- 9:30Speaker 1: an essential business when he was closing all other stores. Well,
- 9:34Speaker 1: these poor people that owned that gym, remember that. Yeah,
- 9:38Speaker 1: they're still they're still in court, right, But why is
- 9:41Speaker 1: it he gave an exemption to liquor stores.
- 9:44Speaker 2: What is the answer to every mystery? Money? My dad
- 9:48Speaker 2: taught me that a long time ago. The answer to
- 9:50Speaker 2: every mystery is money. So they paid him the most.
- 9:55Speaker 2: The liquor industry was paying him off.
- 9:58Speaker 1: Well, he was their best customer, as you know.
- 10:01Speaker 2: Oh, you're saying it was because he wanted to make
- 10:04Speaker 2: sure it was.
- 10:06Speaker 1: Everybody knew that. You would look at Murphy. When Murphy
- 10:08Speaker 1: would do those press conferences every day, obviously they didn't
- 10:11Speaker 1: rival CMO, but he would do one every day. His
- 10:16Speaker 1: eyes were rolling in his head like a twelve noon.
- 10:20Speaker 1: He looked disheveled, his hair was in all different directions.
- 10:23Speaker 1: I would say, my god, this guy was hitting the
- 10:26Speaker 1: bottle by the time he woke up.
- 10:29Speaker 2: Man, All right, let's talk about something a little bit
- 10:31Speaker 2: less serious. Let's talk about OnlyFans, because now you can
- 10:35Speaker 2: go to only fans and see marmots. You don't know
- 10:39Speaker 2: what a marmot is, No, I just learned myself, so
- 10:41Speaker 2: well we'll pass that along to you. That's coming up,
- 10:44Speaker 2: plus a chance to see deep purple in Kansas all
- 10:47Speaker 2: coming up next. Eating is one of the most basic
- 10:51Speaker 2: things we do, of course, but behind every meal, your
- 10:55Speaker 2: body is carrying out thousands of invisible calculations. Usually you
- 11:00Speaker 2: never think about it until something goes wrong. Check out
- 11:04Speaker 2: the pad podcast all about it, searching for Eating Interrupted.
- 11:08Speaker 2: So what you have to do is go on the
- 11:10Speaker 2: app and then search eating Interrupted. It's on the free
- 11:13Speaker 2: iHeartRadio app. And I'll go to the animal guy, Curtis
- 11:19Speaker 2: a marmott.
- 11:21Speaker 1: Is that a? Is that a cookie?
- 11:24Speaker 2: No, it's an animal you know?
- 11:26Speaker 1: Well, you go in. They generally start selling them around
- 11:28Speaker 1: Thanksgiving and Christmas. What they call those not Marmott's mara.
- 11:35Speaker 1: Oh a, this is straining your brain here now it is, okay,
- 11:41Speaker 1: you keep talking. It's got the marshmallow inside chocolate on
- 11:44Speaker 1: the top tail with a little weight for underneath.
- 11:46Speaker 4: Yes, ah, a blamar.
- 11:50Speaker 2: That's right, Malamar. It sounded like marmot to you.
- 11:53Speaker 1: Yes, but you're right.
- 11:56Speaker 4: You get there now.
- 11:57Speaker 1: Watch Natalie shopping this weekend to get a box of malamar.
- 12:01Speaker 6: Can't because they only come out in November. But they
- 12:04Speaker 6: they don't ship them in the summer because they'll melt.
- 12:06Speaker 1: So what are you talking about?
- 12:07Speaker 2: Marmots not not marimellows or whatever they think about it. Marmott's.
- 12:14Speaker 2: Marmots are like huge squirrels, big fat squirrels. It was
- 12:19Speaker 2: a little bit bigger than a groundhog. But they're supposed
- 12:22Speaker 2: to be friendly, except that it says they're generally no, no,
- 12:26Speaker 2: excuse me, I got that completely wrong, generally not friendly
- 12:29Speaker 2: to humans. I could have really hurt some people.
- 12:35Speaker 1: Although Nancy would get along with them. You know, she's
- 12:37Speaker 1: like the female doctor Doolittle. She can talk to all
- 12:40Speaker 1: the animals.
- 12:41Speaker 2: All right, Well, the reason I'm bringing up Marmotts, so
- 12:45Speaker 2: the reason the whole Marmotts is huge. Yeah, it's a
- 12:48Speaker 2: big road. And they're studying them at UCLA. They have
- 12:52Speaker 2: been for a long time, and now their funding is
- 12:55Speaker 2: getting cut, both from the university and from the government
- 12:58Speaker 2: and they didn't know what to do. Now. I don't
- 13:00Speaker 2: know if any of you have seen Margo Has Money
- 13:04Speaker 2: Troubles on Netflix. It's really great. It's about a young
- 13:09Speaker 2: girl that has problems and she decides to do an
- 13:11Speaker 2: only fan site. It's it's and it's got some huge stars,
- 13:15Speaker 2: and it's some really big stars. And so the professor
- 13:19Speaker 2: who needed money was watching Margo's Got Money Troubles.
- 13:23Speaker 4: He has an only site.
- 13:25Speaker 7: Now we are starting a Fat Mormont Week this week,
- 13:27Speaker 7: and that's going to be really fun. But Fat Marmot
- 13:30Speaker 7: Week is on Instagram and that doesn't really monetize anything.
- 13:33Speaker 7: To My wife and I were watching Marco's Got Money Troubles,
- 13:35Speaker 7: and I spent a lot of time sitting in meadows
- 13:37Speaker 7: kind of seeing nothing, waiting for Marmots to come out
- 13:40Speaker 7: and do stuff. And I'm like, huh, Marmots have Money Troubles,
- 13:42Speaker 7: Maybe we could do and only fans.
- 13:44Speaker 1: Oh my gods, have money Troubles. This is what they
- 13:50Speaker 1: do out of UCLA. Oh my god.
- 13:53Speaker 2: So it's called only Marmotts, not only fans, only Marmotts.
- 13:58Speaker 4: He's expecting people to pay.
- 14:00Speaker 2: Ah, they're paying right now.
- 14:02Speaker 7: It doesn't compare. The federal government is priceless, but people
- 14:06Speaker 7: are really generous. We made about four thousand dollars on
- 14:08Speaker 7: early fans. Someone set up a meme coin and we're
- 14:12Speaker 7: making even more money on the meme coin, which is insane.
- 14:16Speaker 2: People will watch anything on the internet.
- 14:19Speaker 6: Come on, guys, can we get on olifans? I could
- 14:23Speaker 6: use that cash.
- 14:25Speaker 2: It's unbelievable. But man, you got to give the guy
- 14:28Speaker 2: a lot of credit. They needed money. He came up
- 14:30Speaker 2: with the way. And now let's get now we're talking
- 14:33Speaker 2: about it, let's get some talkbacks.
- 14:35Speaker 8: Hey, you know earlier you were talking about the MTA
- 14:38Speaker 8: issues and Larry, you blame the slime and all of that,
- 14:41Speaker 8: or the people not paying and that. While that may
- 14:43Speaker 8: be fundamentally true, I think the real people that blame
- 14:46Speaker 8: the root is the MTA themselves. They've been allowed, as
- 14:50Speaker 8: Larry excuse me as Curtis calls them the money taking agency.
- 14:53Speaker 8: They've been allowed to get away with a lack of
- 14:56Speaker 8: accountability that's really unmatched four years. I don't blame the people,
- 15:02Speaker 8: I really don't.
- 15:03Speaker 2: You don't blame the people that get on for free
- 15:05Speaker 2: that are actually breaking the law. You don't blame them
- 15:07Speaker 2: at all. That's half the problem. I agree with you
- 15:10Speaker 2: about the MTA. You can blame more than one source,
- 15:13Speaker 2: but you can't let the people that just keep getting
- 15:15Speaker 2: on the buses for free while the rest of us
- 15:18Speaker 2: are paying.
- 15:19Speaker 9: As usual, all this crap falls on the middle class.
- 15:23Speaker 9: Raise prices, people don't pay what they want. It's okay,
- 15:26Speaker 9: we'll just raise it on the middle class. Crap fall
- 15:28Speaker 9: down on top of us.
- 15:30Speaker 1: But now let's get Daria went the thirty.
- 15:33Speaker 10: News Morning Curtis. President Trump has a cabinet meeting at
- 15:36Speaker 10: Camp David today and at the top of the agenda

- 15:40Speaker 10: Comes as some Republicans are beginning to express concern over
- 15:43Speaker 10: the conflict, with the midterm elections just a few months away.

- 15:58Speaker 10: US troops in Jordan. Seven deaths are now blamed on
- 16:02Speaker 10: legionnaire's disease. On the Upper East Side. The city says
- 16:05Speaker 10: it's still in the process of cleaning cooling towers, which

- 16:10Speaker 10: than sixty thousand people have now signed a petition to
- 16:13Speaker 10: prevent Mayor mom Donnie from attending the upcoming nine eleven services.
- 16:17Speaker 10: Sine say they don't think it's appropriate for him to
- 16:20Speaker 10: be there because they believe he espouses radical views. City
- 16:24Speaker 10: Hall insists the Mayor wants to stand with all New

- 16:30Speaker 10: I'm Daria Albinger on seven to ten.
- 16:32Speaker 2: Wr Thakadarian. Congratulations to Chris Druckman from Old Bethpage who

- 16:53Speaker 2: Mayor mom Donnie always complains we don't have enough money,
- 16:57Speaker 2: but apparently he's all with paying for reparations. Will let
- 17:02Speaker 2: you hear for yourself coming up.
- 17:03Speaker 1: Next Well, you know my mission now is to stop
- 17:06Speaker 1: those benditos from stealing your mail out of the mailboxes.
- 17:10Speaker 1: You know, with that gluey substance on a belt every morning.
- 17:13Speaker 1: I do that before I come here. But there's an
- 17:15Speaker 1: even big, more pervasive threat that's legal, but you can
- 17:20Speaker 1: stop it. Those spam texts and scam emails that are
- 17:23Speaker 1: flooding your phone, they're not random. Scammers buy your personal information,
- 17:27Speaker 1: and data brokers are the ones selling it. Data brokers
- 17:30Speaker 1: collect your name, address, phone number, even the meds you
- 17:33Speaker 1: take in your income. Then they package it up and
- 17:35Speaker 1: sell it to anyone willing to pay, including criminals. Now
- 17:39Speaker 1: that's why I use Incogni. Let me spell it for you,
- 17:42Speaker 1: write it down. I n cog Ni to take back
- 17:46Speaker 1: my privacy and safety. In Cogni contacts hundreds and hundreds
- 17:50Speaker 1: of data brokers on your behalf and legally demands a
- 17:54Speaker 1: delete your personal data. I'd add my information scrub four
- 17:59Speaker 1: hundred and twenty eight broke us had it, and in
- 18:01Speaker 1: Cogni make sure your that is gone for good and
- 18:04Speaker 1: they'll play whack a mole after that. The result less, ma'am,
- 18:07Speaker 1: fewest scam calls, and a lot less of your personal
- 18:10Speaker 1: information floating around the Internet like it's clearing house merchandise.

- 18:27Speaker 1: I cog Ni dot com slash curtis.
- 18:31Speaker 2: If you remember, and of course you're going to remember
- 18:33Speaker 2: that when Zerimndani was running for mayor and back when
- 18:37Speaker 2: he was an assemblyman, he said that the great sin
- 18:41Speaker 2: of New York City, not just of America, was slavery,
- 18:44Speaker 2: that we were all in and that he was all
- 18:47Speaker 2: in favor of reparations. Well, there is commission that's going
- 18:50Speaker 2: to study it. And he was on with Charles blow
- 18:53Speaker 2: in an interview for the Route It's online. It made
- 18:57Speaker 2: national news because he's said he was asked, what would
- 19:02Speaker 2: you do if the commission comes back and recommends reparations.
- 19:08Speaker 11: In examining wall streets complicity in the slave trade. One
- 19:12Speaker 11: of these commissions is set to release its final report
- 19:15Speaker 11: next summer. If a commission studying reparations in this city
- 19:21Speaker 11: recommended cash reparations for people impacted in New York City,
- 19:28Speaker 11: which you support that recommendation.
- 19:30Speaker 12: First, I want to say that I stand by what
- 19:32Speaker 12: I submitted. Yes, it's the truth. It's not a personal assessment.
- 19:36Speaker 12: And we often think about slavery and the complicity in
- 19:42Speaker 12: slavery as being exclusively to certain geographic areas of the country.
- 19:46Speaker 12: Here in New York City we were very complicit, and
- 19:48Speaker 12: so I look forward to whatever those findings are. I
- 19:50Speaker 12: can't give you an answer in advance of them, but
- 19:52Speaker 12: I can tell you that this is critically important because
- 19:55Speaker 12: this is also what it looks like to acknowledge what
- 19:59Speaker 12: history truly was.
- 20:00Speaker 2: He said it before, he said it again. It sounds
- 20:03Speaker 2: like he does want to pay reparations. What was the
- 20:06Speaker 2: interviewer's name there, Charles Blow? Oh, I thought it was
- 20:09Speaker 2: Curtis Blow. You know, the rap of these are the
- 20:11Speaker 2: breaks ain't going to happen me. Let me break it
- 20:14Speaker 2: down for you.
- 20:15Speaker 1: Every major urban area mayor or a council or alderman
- 20:21Speaker 1: will come forward and say, we want to put a
- 20:23Speaker 1: committee together of prestigious African Americans, many of them from
- 20:27Speaker 1: the Civil Rights movement, to study the possibility of having
- 20:31Speaker 1: reparations if you could prove that your lineage is directly
- 20:36Speaker 1: to the African American slave community that was here in
- 20:40Speaker 1: the United States, not the one from the West Indies. No, no, no, no, no.
- 20:43Speaker 1: What had to be here. And the first major city
- 20:46Speaker 1: to do that was San Francisco. As you would expect,
- 20:49Speaker 1: so liberal, so progressive. They put together the committee. A
- 20:53Speaker 1: newsome the governor was saying, Oh, I can't wait for
- 20:55Speaker 1: the findings. Man. We could do this. We could do
- 20:58Speaker 1: this from San Diego right on up to Sacramento. And
- 21:02Speaker 1: so they did a very exhaustive study. They put together
- 21:05Speaker 1: a really good outline. If you were going to do it,
- 21:08Speaker 1: you had to prove that through your grandparents or great
- 21:12Speaker 1: grandparents that they were slaves here in the United States.
- 21:16Speaker 1: And then all of a sudden, I decided to chime in,
- 21:20Speaker 1: and so you realize under your rules and regulations. O. J. Simpson,
- 21:23Speaker 1: the murderer, would qualify because his mother traced her roots
- 21:28Speaker 1: to slavery in the South. She was an accountant in
- 21:32Speaker 1: a bank in San Francisco. He lived in Peterero Hill,
- 21:35Speaker 1: and his father was a five star cook by day
- 21:39Speaker 1: and he dragged queen down in the Castro section, entertaining
- 21:43Speaker 1: a knight. And he too could trace his lineage to
- 21:47Speaker 1: the American slave trade. That slowed it down a little bit,
- 21:52Speaker 1: but they had the program, they had it all done,
- 21:55Speaker 1: dotted every I, cross every T and then Governor Newsom said,
- 21:58Speaker 1: great idea, but we just don't have it in the budget.
- 22:02Speaker 1: And I've seen this done over and over and over.
- 22:05Speaker 1: Brandon Johnson, who's like the twin of Zura Mandami, the
- 22:08Speaker 1: socialist mayor in Chicago, he said, we're going to do
- 22:12Speaker 1: what has been done in Evanston. Evanston is if you
- 22:14Speaker 1: notice north to Chicago, that's where Northwestern University is. Evanston
- 22:19Speaker 1: now has reparations twenty five thousand dollars. If you can
- 22:24Speaker 1: prove that in your lineage without having to go to
- 22:28Speaker 1: Salt Lake City and the Church of the Latter day
- 22:32Speaker 1: Saints who do all that sort of genetic you know, testing,
- 22:36Speaker 1: so to speak, and determine where your lineage is from,
- 22:39Speaker 1: you get twenty five thousand dollars. Providence will give you
- 22:43Speaker 1: a whole series of benefits that would be the equivalent
- 22:47Speaker 1: of reparations. There are two hundred other communities in America
- 22:50Speaker 1: that do that, and there are lots of task force
- 22:53Speaker 1: that are studying it, but they ain't gonna do it
- 22:56Speaker 1: because you just can't afford to do it right.
- 22:58Speaker 2: And where does it end. I mean my ancestors came
- 23:01Speaker 2: over on a ship. They were sent into the Civil
- 23:03Speaker 2: war immediately and killed. Some of them were beaten. The
- 23:06Speaker 2: Irish had their churches burned and were dragged out of
- 23:09Speaker 2: their houses and killed. Do they get reparations? Do I
- 23:12Speaker 2: get reparations from the crown, from the King and queen.
- 23:15Speaker 1: Those dead beats, those slackers, those welfare cheeks will put
- 23:19Speaker 1: you on coffin ships. Remember that's why they called it
- 23:21Speaker 1: a coffin ship because a lot of the Irish died
- 23:25Speaker 1: in the passage because all the food was taken from
- 23:29Speaker 1: Ireland and all you were left with were the potatoes
- 23:32Speaker 1: that had this disease.
- 23:34Speaker 2: And the Irish had to leave, right, But we weren't
- 23:36Speaker 2: treated much better when we got or you were treated
- 23:38Speaker 2: worse right. And there was a whole party, the know
- 23:40Speaker 2: nothing party, to go against us. They got a mayoral raised.
- 23:44Speaker 2: They want a mayoral raised in Philadelphia.
- 23:46Speaker 1: Yeah, well, you were a castle. Shit, it despised you.
- 23:50Speaker 1: But you're right, So many groups can make a pitch.
- 23:54Speaker 1: The reality is, let's look at New York City. Now.
- 23:56Speaker 1: Just the other day Zorn Mandami said, oh, we gotta
- 24:00Speaker 1: cut two percent of funding to every agency because we're
- 24:04Speaker 1: already over budget. I went not even into the new
- 24:07Speaker 1: budgetary year. Next year is gonna be even worse. So
- 24:10Speaker 1: this is gonna sound great. It's a direct appeal to
- 24:13Speaker 1: the African American community to make them feel good. But
- 24:17Speaker 1: there's no chance in hell that there'll be any reparations paid.
- 24:21Speaker 1: So Democrats will all support it. They'll say it's a
- 24:24Speaker 1: wonderful thing. We should in any way, shape or form
- 24:28Speaker 1: undo what he should have said. This guy what was
- 24:31Speaker 1: his name, Curtis Boyl you know Wall Street? No, no, no, no,
- 24:35Speaker 1: the Dutch was selling slaves right down where City Hall
- 24:40Speaker 1: is right now. They would sell slaves right there. You
- 24:42Speaker 1: can make that argument, but you're not gonna be able
- 24:45Speaker 1: to get the money. You're not gonna be able to
- 24:47Speaker 1: do the payouts. And how are you gonna be able
- 24:49Speaker 1: to legally trace who these people are and where they
- 24:52Speaker 1: were from, and how they could directly sort of attach
- 24:55Speaker 1: themselves to who were real slaves.
- 24:58Speaker 2: The moral of every story that we talk about, Zurimam Donnie,
- 25:01Speaker 2: and the moral of the story that you just told us.
- 25:03Speaker 1: He's a liar, Well rememby he didn't say he would
- 25:06Speaker 1: do it, Oh no, he recommended it before.
- 25:09Speaker 2: Yeah, he absolutely did recommend it. Now he's saying he's
- 25:12Speaker 2: gonna wait for the commission. Right, the Commission's gonna have
- 25:14Speaker 2: to come back. I can tell him whether he should,
- 25:16Speaker 2: but since he's already said he was gonna do it,
- 25:18Speaker 2: I would imagine he would have to go ahead.
- 25:19Speaker 1: And go do it. Well, California led and he's following.
- 25:22Speaker 1: That's what Newsom said, I'm gonna wait for the commission.
- 25:25Speaker 1: The Commission said we should do it, and then the
- 25:27Speaker 1: governess said, ah, but the money is not in the budget.
- 25:30Speaker 2: By the way, as I whined about the Irish and
- 25:32Speaker 2: the way they were treated and they need reparations, I'm
- 25:35Speaker 2: probably there's somebody that's half Native American out there going
- 25:38Speaker 2: wait a second, if anybody needed reparations, it's us. We
- 25:43Speaker 2: should be getting reparation.
- 25:44Speaker 1: You know my position on this, and I don't have
- 25:46Speaker 1: an Irish drop of blood in me. The Brits destroy
- 25:50Speaker 1: the Irish people. If there are any people out there
- 25:54Speaker 1: who should get reparations from the crown, who has all
- 25:57Speaker 1: see the artifacts of the world, the rich of the world,
- 26:00Speaker 1: they do no work, they're deadbeats. It should be the
- 26:03Speaker 1: Irish who can trace it. They don't call it the
- 26:05Speaker 1: Great Famine any longer. What do they call it?
- 26:07Speaker 2: Not the famine, it's the Great Hunger because they blame
- 26:10Speaker 2: the British for it. Because remember there was plenty of food.
- 26:12Speaker 2: The British were just taking it all.
- 26:14Speaker 1: Taking it all. God, they knew that all these Irish
- 26:18Speaker 1: would die. They died of famine. They died in the roads.
- 26:22Speaker 1: People described it in great literary prose, how people would
- 26:26Speaker 1: just come out of there little hobbls and die. We
- 26:29Speaker 1: have a monument to that, not far from the world
- 26:32Speaker 1: Sade Center, site of what was I believe it was
- 26:35Speaker 1: from County Derry. You should really go down there. It's
- 26:39Speaker 1: a great memorial to the hundreds of thousands who died
- 26:43Speaker 1: because of the King and Queen Queen Victoria. At the time,
- 26:47Speaker 1: she didn't even say let them eat cake. No, I
- 26:49Speaker 1: have said, let him die.
- 26:51Speaker 2: I will go down there. I've been to several I've
- 26:53Speaker 2: been at the unveiling of a couple and they are amazing,
- 26:56Speaker 2: And you're right, you're right. We should never forget that.
- 26:59Speaker 2: It is amazing though, how some groups are forgetful and
- 27:02Speaker 2: some groups never forget up.
- 27:03Speaker 1: The rebels, he's still landing we'll go the whole nine
- 27:07Speaker 1: yards on that. But anyway, up next Natalie Migliore, as
- 27:11Speaker 1: she's down in the streets right now, schlepping it up
- 27:14Speaker 1: here to the suite. She asked the question on New
- 27:16Speaker 1: York smoking more weed than drinking alcohol these days.
- 27:22Speaker 8: Now it's seventen w o r s feed on the
- 27:26Speaker 8: street with Natalie Miglioroi.
- 27:29Speaker 1: Oh well, you went a purple haze downstairs when you
- 27:32Speaker 1: were soliciting people their opinions about uh more pot being
- 27:38Speaker 1: used now than alcohol and cigarettes each day throughout America. Yeah, well,
- 27:44Speaker 1: hold on, second, let's pop her on. Hold on, let's
- 27:47Speaker 1: see if we can get Natalie Migliori, who has been right.
- 27:51Speaker 13: Now try me now, okaying, I'm a little high right
- 27:57Speaker 13: now from the marijuana that's being smoked on the street.
- 28:00Speaker 13: Said I know, but then you guys send me out
- 28:03Speaker 13: and guess what, people are puffing it in my face
- 28:07Speaker 13: and you just like you sent me up to the
- 28:09Speaker 13: Knicks parade and that was just a whole purple haze
- 28:12Speaker 13: down there all those weeks ago.
- 28:13Speaker 4: And second hand, I is a thing, Larry, It's not
- 28:16Speaker 4: my fault.
- 28:17Speaker 13: And we have thoughts about this that I would never
- 28:20Speaker 13: purposely go puffing.
- 28:21Speaker 4: In the streets.
- 28:22Speaker 1: You have dispensation.
- 28:24Speaker 4: Thank you. I appreciate that something that Catholic Church won't
- 28:27Speaker 4: even give me.
- 28:28Speaker 13: Okay, And I know because I'm planning a wedding, which
- 28:32Speaker 13: may mean Natalie, that I may need an edible or
- 28:36Speaker 13: something because I just worry all the time.
- 28:38Speaker 4: We were just talking about this, worrying all the time.
- 28:40Speaker 13: And maybe that's why the Substance Abuse and Mental Health
- 28:44Speaker 13: Services Administration found more Americans are now turning to marijuana
- 28:50Speaker 13: than alcohol. The data shows more than twenty one million
- 28:54Speaker 13: Americans over the age of twelve, so Little Young smoked
- 28:58Speaker 13: more Mary Jane at least once a day in twenty
- 29:02Speaker 13: twenty five.
- 29:03Speaker 4: Then they did drink alcohol.
- 29:05Speaker 13: Now only about seventeen million Americans drink alcohol every day
- 29:10Speaker 13: or most days, so not necessarily every day, just regularly.
- 29:14Speaker 4: So what do people think about the stats?
- 29:17Speaker 14: I don't smoke weed or drink so okay, I'll do
- 29:19Speaker 14: bo So I mean I smoke more than I drink,
- 29:22Speaker 14: So I guess it's true.
- 29:23Speaker 15: I'm kind of torn. I feel like our forefathers did
- 29:26Speaker 15: quite a lot on alcohol, not weed, so I take
- 29:29Speaker 15: that into consideration.
- 29:31Speaker 16: I really couldn't say anything on that because I don't smoke.
- 29:33Speaker 16: I don't and I don't drink, so I grew up
- 29:36Speaker 16: around it. I tried it, but it never had no
- 29:39Speaker 16: effect on me.
- 29:40Speaker 17: To each his own, I guess I think it's better
- 29:42Speaker 17: to smoke weed than to drink. You know, at least
- 29:45Speaker 17: when you smoke a weed, you know what's going on.
- 29:48Speaker 17: You drink alcohol, you like like an idiot.
- 29:52Speaker 13: And as he was saying like an idiot, he was
- 29:55Speaker 13: purposely showing me that people stumble around like he was
- 29:59Speaker 13: moving around like he was struck. I was like, the
- 30:02Speaker 13: visual was just funny about it, and I was following it,
- 30:05Speaker 13: chasing him with my microphone so that.
- 30:06Speaker 1: He wouldn't go too far.
- 30:08Speaker 13: The number shows adults over the age of twenty six
- 30:12Speaker 13: smoking marijuana on the rag has rapidly grown, but the
- 30:17Speaker 13: age group I know, you guys did the study the
- 30:19Speaker 13: earlier this week. The age group where the most people
- 30:21Speaker 13: are smoking millennials and baby boomers, people in their thirties,
- 30:26Speaker 13: their forties, their fifties, their sixties.
- 30:30Speaker 1: Now.
- 30:30Speaker 13: When I asked a gen zer about their smoking habits,
- 30:33Speaker 13: they seemed a little bit embarrassed about it until hearing
- 30:39Speaker 13: the ages.
- 30:40Speaker 15: Oh wow, see I didn't know that. I didn't know that.
- 30:46Speaker 15: So it's the older generation. Well, you know what, I
- 30:48Speaker 15: will say, Maybe they're just coming clean. Maybe they're not
- 30:51Speaker 15: the biggest group, but they're just being more transparent about it.
- 30:54Speaker 1: Maybe allow that people who were my age.
- 30:58Speaker 16: Fifty plus, they they smoke every now and then. They
- 31:01Speaker 16: smoke periodically.
- 31:03Speaker 1: My circle.
- 31:04Speaker 16: I don't see it outside of my circle.
- 31:06Speaker 1: I see it all ages.
- 31:08Speaker 17: You go to the dispensary and you see like people
- 31:10Speaker 17: like seventy years old going in there, maybe even older
- 31:14Speaker 17: than that too. They use it for pain. It helps
- 31:16Speaker 17: out with pain and stuff. I said that forty years ago.
- 31:20Speaker 13: Yeah, that guy telling me though he doesn't smoke as
- 31:23Speaker 13: much as he used to, so it's not in his
- 31:26Speaker 13: daily routine. A lot of people telling me even though
- 31:29Speaker 13: people are social drinkers, they're also social smokers in a
- 31:32Speaker 13: sense of this and this way, it's become less stigmatized.
- 31:36Speaker 4: I think there was more of a stigma before it.
- 31:38Speaker 13: Was legalized in New York, and so now since New
- 31:42Speaker 13: York has legalized weed a few years ago, several people
- 31:47Speaker 13: say it feels like everyone is smoking everywhere, all the.
- 31:52Speaker 17: Time, every day, every day, especially down here overnight A
- 31:56Speaker 17: lot overnight.
- 31:57Speaker 14: I mean, that's for sure. I mean I've been smoking
- 31:59Speaker 14: for twenty year. I was smoking before it was legal.
- 32:01Speaker 14: In these same streets as legal, everybody's smoking.
- 32:05Speaker 16: An okay, my neighbor is it's like a chimney. They
- 32:09Speaker 16: come outside first thing in the morning, smoking weed, before
- 32:12Speaker 16: they go in the afternoon smoking weed, before they go
- 32:15Speaker 16: to bed, smoking weed. So we have to keep air
- 32:18Speaker 16: freshener an exhaust fan in the house to keep the
- 32:22Speaker 16: smell away.
- 32:23Speaker 1: The landlord, that's a problem.
- 32:27Speaker 13: The landlord might be high drop, I don't know, take
- 32:30Speaker 13: his pick. But overall, it seems that smoking weed. The
- 32:34Speaker 13: funny thing is a lot of people Now you kind
- 32:37Speaker 13: of have to clarify, are you talking about smoking weed
- 32:40Speaker 13: smoking cigarettes?
- 32:41Speaker 4: But that has overtaken smoking cigarettes, Sure it has. So
- 32:45Speaker 4: it's an interesting.
- 32:46Speaker 2: It is interesting. But I'm shocked that people are surprised
- 32:50Speaker 2: that older people are smoking pot. That's the woodstock generation.
- 32:53Speaker 2: Are you kidding me? They've been smoking it for a
- 32:55Speaker 2: long time before it was legal.
- 32:57Speaker 1: Well, people would have assumed if they weren't able to
- 33:02Speaker 1: smell it first and then see it. You smell it
- 33:04Speaker 1: before you see it, that it would be all these
- 33:06Speaker 1: new gen zers. But you see they're going up where
- 33:09Speaker 1: it's legal. You're no longer crossing that maginal line.
- 33:13Speaker 13: Right, And that's a lot of what we were talking
- 33:16Speaker 13: about today two on the street. One of the gen
- 33:18Speaker 13: z or who I was talking about said they thought
- 33:20Speaker 13: it was this cutting edge thing at first, and then
- 33:22Speaker 13: you really look into it, you legalize it. You don't
- 33:25Speaker 13: feel like you're doing something ooh so crazy anymore, especially
- 33:30Speaker 13: after learning the history of weed and how long it's
- 33:32Speaker 13: been around.
- 33:33Speaker 2: I hear people on the radio talking about taking gummies.
- 33:36Speaker 2: Gummies are big, They're bigger I think at this point
- 33:39Speaker 2: than smoking pot.
- 33:40Speaker 4: Well, we should all take gummies and then test it out.
- 33:45Speaker 13: What a funny experiment, I'm afraid, but Tom sign off
- 33:48Speaker 13: on that I've only done it.
- 33:50Speaker 4: I've never done it, so this would be interesting, I know.
- 33:53Speaker 1: Right now, would you take it close to the dry
- 33:55Speaker 1: cleaners because we can smell on you you were smoking papass.
- 34:02Speaker 1: But everybody you were talking to us, you'll be back
- 34:05Speaker 1: with us on money meantime. Up next, Andrew Evilized Coomo
- 34:09Speaker 1: and the Evil Doctor Fauci. Oh yeah, we've got some
- 34:13Speaker 1: late breaking details on that partnership of death. Plus listen
