Speaker 2: Mark Simone show continues.
0:05
Speaker 1: Now, well, hey, welcome to our number two. We got
0:14
Speaker 1: a lot to get to this hour. So, hey, this
0:17
Speaker 1: just breaking. You know, this redistricting is taking place in
0:22
Speaker 1: state after state where they redraw the congressional districts to
0:25
Speaker 1: get rid of Republican districts or it's all terrible stuff.
0:30
Speaker 1: It's just totally unethical. You know, the congressional districts. If
0:35
Speaker 1: an area is Republican, it's republican. But they'll redraw the
0:38
Speaker 1: district in this weird snake pattern just to eliminate their
0:43
Speaker 1: But so they've done it in state after state, but
0:45
Speaker 1: in Louisiana they tried to do it and the Supreme
0:48
Speaker 1: Court just shot it down, ruling it unconstitutional unethical. So
0:54
Speaker 1: this is a big victory for the GOP, but it
0:56
Speaker 1: could also set a precedent for all this crazy districting.
1:00
Speaker 1: So it just happened. We'll keep an eye on that.
1:04
Speaker 1: We're talking about the Devilwars Prada Part two. The sequel
1:08
Speaker 1: is this Friday. Roger Friedman on Last Hour reporting it's
1:12
Speaker 1: not that good. You're going to see a huge publicity
1:15
Speaker 1: blitz all this week for the Devilwaar's product. Too, but
1:19
Speaker 1: apparently they've really toned it down. So and he reports
1:25
Speaker 1: it's not only not good, but there's no screenings. You know, normally,
1:28
Speaker 1: all the critics, all the people in the media, we
1:31
Speaker 1: all get invited to private screenings all day and night.
1:35
Speaker 1: Anytime you want to see it, you go to a
1:36
Speaker 1: private screening. There's the big premiere, there's all that stuff.
1:39
Speaker 1: And apparently they've canceled all the screenings. Now, that's usually
1:43
Speaker 1: because a movie stinks and it's going to get bad reviews,
1:46
Speaker 1: so they won't let anybody see it before it opens
1:48
Speaker 1: because they know where it will get out. It's thanks,
1:50
Speaker 1: So apparently it's not great. As I mentioned before, I
1:53
Speaker 1: never saw the Devilwaar's product. I just never saw it.
1:57
Speaker 1: So I went back and I watched it over the
1:59
Speaker 1: week just to see in the Meryl Streep character. Now,
2:04
Speaker 1: I guess to most people, this is a horrible woman.
2:07
Speaker 1: They can't believe the way she talks to people. They
2:08
Speaker 1: can't believe who she treats people. They can't believe the
2:12
Speaker 1: way she'd be had for us in the media. Me
2:15
Speaker 1: Roger said the same thing. We've worked for a million
2:17
Speaker 1: people like that. We've worked for people ten times worse
2:20
Speaker 1: than that. So that's the way a lot of people
2:24
Speaker 1: are in the media world. That's the way a lot
2:27
Speaker 1: of agents are. That's the way a lot of TV
2:29
Speaker 1: executives are, Radio executives are, some not so much. But
2:33
Speaker 1: in the television broadcasting around of entertainment. Yeah, there's plenty
2:37
Speaker 1: of people worse than her, much worse. Now, look at
2:40
Speaker 1: the correspondence dinner. We just heard the story on the news,
2:46
Speaker 1: the shooting. The four shots are fired, all hell breaks loose,
2:49
Speaker 1: the Secret Service in the room, those guys in combat
2:52
Speaker 1: gear with big long rifles pointing the crowd. People are fleeing,
2:55
Speaker 1: hiding under tables. And there was this video of this
2:58
Speaker 1: guy who didn't flinch. He kept eating his salad. He
3:02
Speaker 1: didn't get under the table, he didn't even stop eating.
3:04
Speaker 1: In fact, everybody left, he's eating their stuff. So they
3:08
Speaker 1: finally figured out who the guy is, and sure enough,
3:11
Speaker 1: just like I was just telling you, he's an agent.
3:14
Speaker 1: He's a big Hollywood agent. And he said, eh, I'm
3:18
Speaker 1: used to I'm used to sirens, I'm used to police
3:22
Speaker 1: stuff didn't bother me. I was hungry, I wanted to
3:24
Speaker 1: finish eating. I'm not getting under a table. But that's
3:27
Speaker 1: you see that in the media with a lot of
3:29
Speaker 1: very tough, cold people. Then there's that other famous video.
3:32
Speaker 1: I don't think they've identified her yet, the woman who
3:35
Speaker 1: in the middle of all this is running around stealing
3:38
Speaker 1: the champagne bottles off the table, sticking them in her purse.
3:42
Speaker 1: What else? Oh, speaking of which, the shooter, Cole Allen,
3:47
Speaker 1: apparently was taking smiling selfies of himself before the shooting.
3:51
Speaker 1: He was up in his hotel room. He was on
3:54
Speaker 1: the tenth floor taking selfies of himself smiling everybody, I
3:58
Speaker 1: don't care what you do. He taking selfies for Instagram
4:03
Speaker 1: or something. And apparently he walked down the stairs. He
4:06
Speaker 1: didn't get in the elevator to come down to the
4:09
Speaker 1: where the ballroom is or where the lobby is. He
4:12
Speaker 1: walked down with the guns and everything came down ten
4:15
Speaker 1: flights of stairs. Now, I would imagine that he's figuring
4:18
Speaker 1: the surveillance cameras in the elevators they'd see the guns.
4:23
Speaker 1: Although he was wearing a long coat over the guns
4:28
Speaker 1: and came down the ten flights. It's just you're going
4:30
Speaker 1: to be less detected in a back stairwell than an elevator,
4:33
Speaker 1: and not likely to run into anybody in the stairwell.
4:36
Speaker 1: So he came down wearing a long trench coat with
4:38
Speaker 1: the guns underneath, the rifle underneath, and then he found
4:42
Speaker 1: a little room just off the lobby, just a little alcove,
4:47
Speaker 1: a little room where there it was used to store
4:50
Speaker 1: bar carts and things like that, and it was not
4:54
Speaker 1: guarded by the Secret Service. As much as they were
4:56
Speaker 1: all over the lobby, they didn't guard certain areas. There
4:59
Speaker 1: were a couple of holding rooms they weren't guarding, and
5:01
Speaker 1: there was this little room where they stored the bar cards.
5:04
Speaker 1: So he went in there to take off his trench
5:07
Speaker 1: coat and bring out the guns. Now, as far as
5:10
Speaker 1: mistakes the Secret Service made, well, there's different types of
5:14
Speaker 1: Secret Service. There's the uniform Secret Service. You know, there's
5:18
Speaker 1: about seven thousand people in the Secret Service. But there's
5:21
Speaker 1: the uniform guys. That's like the lower tier. Those are
5:26
Speaker 1: the ones you see in uniform all over the lobby.
5:28
Speaker 1: Then there's the guys in the suits and ties with
5:30
Speaker 1: the earphones. That's the PPD, the Presidential Protection Division. Those
5:38
Speaker 1: are much higher level guys. Those are the ones all
5:41
Speaker 1: around the president. And then there's the CAT, the Counter
5:44
Speaker 1: Assault Team, those are the guys in the combat gear,
5:48
Speaker 1: the helmets, the big long rifles. So the outside the perimeter,
5:53
Speaker 1: that was the uniform guys. And when they look back
5:55
Speaker 1: at mistakes, there were a bunch they were not Again,
5:59
Speaker 1: they didn't check all the they weren't guarding all these
6:01
Speaker 1: little rooms alcohols. The other thing is it looked like
6:06
Speaker 1: about nine o'clock they were getting lazy. They were dismantling
6:09
Speaker 1: the metal detectors. The fare is just beginning. Why would
6:13
Speaker 1: you shut this stuff down? Start taking down the equipment,
6:16
Speaker 1: And you could see they were all not paying attention.
6:19
Speaker 1: They were all gossiping, talking on the side there. And
6:22
Speaker 1: then the other thing they're looking at is as you
6:25
Speaker 1: came down the long corridor to get to this checkpoint,
6:30
Speaker 1: it was a straight line all the way. You're not
6:32
Speaker 1: supposed to do that. You're supposed to make it a zigzag,
6:36
Speaker 1: Like if you're coming to a military base, the road
6:39
Speaker 1: that goes right to the front of the military base
6:41
Speaker 1: is always zigzagged. That way. You can't get up any
6:44
Speaker 1: speed because you have to keep turning. Same thing with
6:48
Speaker 1: coming down this corridor to get to the checkpoint, to
6:52
Speaker 1: get into the ballroom. It should have been set up
6:54
Speaker 1: with fences, so you have to turn this way and
6:56
Speaker 1: then this way and that way. When you have to zigzag,
6:58
Speaker 1: you can't run and get up all that speed that
7:00
Speaker 1: the guy got up. So that's the other mistake. They'll
7:03
Speaker 1: keep looking at this and they'll make more corrections to
7:07
Speaker 1: all of this stuff. Hey, Obama getting a lot of flack.
7:11
Speaker 1: President Obama, who's been kind of under the radar for
7:16
Speaker 1: a while, and when he first left he had his book,
7:19
Speaker 1: his Netflix thing, and then all that kind of dried up.
7:22
Speaker 1: Of course, it's been a it's been five years, you know,
7:25
Speaker 1: more than that, it's been Trump Biden's been nine years,
7:29
Speaker 1: ten years. So it goes away after a while. He's
7:32
Speaker 1: trying to come back, trying to get visible again, trying
7:35
Speaker 1: to get relevant again. So you know, he's he's starting
7:40
Speaker 1: a production company. He's trying to get a lot of
7:41
Speaker 1: attention for himself. So right after the shooting, the White
7:44
Speaker 1: House correspondents to him. He puts out this ridiculous tweet saying,
7:49
Speaker 1: we don't know the motive yet for the shooting. Well,
7:53
Speaker 1: of course he knew the motive for the shooting. The
7:55
Speaker 1: shooter wrote out his motive in great detail and published
7:59
Speaker 1: a man of Festo. He wrote it out in detail
8:03
Speaker 1: here it is, here's my motive. So for Obama to
8:06
Speaker 1: write that stupid tweet, well, we don't know the motive
8:09
Speaker 1: of the shooter. And a lot of people are pointing
8:12
Speaker 1: out that was a big mistake on his part because
8:15
Speaker 1: it reminded people. It's reminding people of the stuff they
8:19
Speaker 1: didn't like about him. You know, he looks great, he's
8:22
Speaker 1: a good talker, he's in a beautiful suit, he looks,
8:25
Speaker 1: you know, very impressive up there. But outside of that,
8:30
Speaker 1: he's a hell of a liar. He never gets done
8:33
Speaker 1: anything like he claims he's going to do. He does
8:35
Speaker 1: just the opposite. You know, he was supposed to be
8:37
Speaker 1: the unit or the healer. He did more to divide
8:39
Speaker 1: the country racially, class warfare. I mean so, and you
8:46
Speaker 1: think he looks like this noble sort of a guy,
8:47
Speaker 1: but he's the biggest liar. And when he put out
8:50
Speaker 1: that tweet, it just reminded people how blatantly he can
8:52
Speaker 1: lie at times. Hey, let's get that, Jimmy Kimmel. So
8:57
Speaker 1: you might have seen that the FCC is looking at
9:01
Speaker 1: ABC talking about looking at their licenses. Now, this was
9:05
Speaker 1: apparently something that was going on for a while about
9:08
Speaker 1: diversity hiring at ABC. I can't imagine ABC not having
9:12
Speaker 1: a lot of diversity hiring, but apparently they were looking
9:16
Speaker 1: at that. Now they may have ramped it up because
9:18
Speaker 1: of the Kimmel thing. From what we hear inside sources
9:24
Speaker 1: at ABC. This is not confirmed, but inside sources say
9:27
Speaker 1: they plan to absolutely stand by Kimmel. He doesn't have
9:31
Speaker 1: much left on his contract, so firing him may cause
9:36
Speaker 1: more uproar than they want. But I say it's back
9:39
Speaker 1: to usual. They're moving on. Well, we'll see. Kimmel is
9:43
Speaker 1: doubling down on the whole thing. You know, they made
9:45
Speaker 1: the joke about Milania looks like an expectant widow. In
9:50
Speaker 1: other words, your husban's gonna die at any moment. Now,
9:52
Speaker 1: he claimed when he did it, we claim the next day.
9:57
Speaker 1: That's a roast joke. It's done it all the time.
10:02
Speaker 1: It's just a standard roast joke. It has nothing to
10:03
Speaker 1: do with being assassination. It just means you're old and
10:06
Speaker 1: your your your wife is younger, she's going to be
10:09
Speaker 1: a widow. Well, yeah, it was done with a lot
10:11
Speaker 1: of roast, but it was usually a much older looking guy.
10:14
Speaker 1: It was always they used to do it about abe
10:16
Speaker 1: Vigoda all the time. Remember Abeagoda. They were every great friars.
10:19
Speaker 1: Rus would bring Abevagoda on to the day. It's not
10:22
Speaker 1: because he was so exciting. They just needed him because
10:25
Speaker 1: everybody wanted to do jokes. They'd say, ladies and gentlemen,
10:27
Speaker 1: Abe Pagoda and his widow, and everybody would laugh. It
10:31
Speaker 1: doesn't work with Trump though. It's not because he doesn't
10:34
Speaker 1: look like he's about to go anywhere. And uh, well,
10:37
Speaker 1: here's Kimmel last night. Now. Now, apparently when Trump President
10:42
Speaker 1: Trump was speaking at the ceremony with the King, he
10:46
Speaker 1: talked about how long the queen was married, and he
10:51
Speaker 1: made a joke about sixty three years. Well, I'll never
10:54
Speaker 1: be able to be married that long to Milanea, in
10:56
Speaker 1: other words, we're too old. But she's fifty seven, so
10:59
Speaker 1: obviously she's really not going to live another sixty three years.
11:02
Speaker 1: So it's not about his age, it's just in general.
11:05
Speaker 1: But so Kimmel used that. He said, look, this he's
11:08
Speaker 1: making a joke about his age. Why can't I do it?
11:11
Speaker 3: They were married for sixty three years, and excuse me
11:17
Speaker 3: if you don't mind, that's a record.
11:19
Speaker 1: We won't be.
11:20
Speaker 2: Able to match Darling, So just not going to work
11:23
Speaker 2: out that way.
11:25
Speaker 1: Wait a minute, did he just make a joke about
11:29
Speaker 1: his death? Not really, he made a joke that he
11:36
Speaker 1: doesn't have sixty three years to go. He didn't make
11:38
Speaker 1: a joke about he'll be dying pretty soon. It's different,
11:42
Speaker 1: It's really different. Kimmel's joke was you look like an
11:45
Speaker 1: expectant widow. Noother was expecting him to die at any moment,
11:48
Speaker 1: which nobody was, so Kimmel's standing by that joke.
11:52
Speaker 2: Only Donald Trump would demand I'd be fired for making
11:55
Speaker 2: a joke about his old age, and then a day
11:58
Speaker 2: later go out and make a joke about.
11:59
Speaker 1: His But you know, when Kimmel made that joke about
12:04
Speaker 1: you look like an expectant widow, it was a joke
12:07
Speaker 1: about a guy who had just gotten through three assassination attempts,
12:11
Speaker 1: and the next day the fourth assassination attempt came. You had, Butler,
12:16
Speaker 1: you had the guy on the golf course trying it
12:18
Speaker 1: with the rifle, trying to shoot him. And I'm also
12:21
Speaker 1: counting the guy, remember the guy that charged the gate
12:23
Speaker 1: at mar A Lago that had a bomb on him.
12:25
Speaker 1: So that's three assassination attempts, the fourth one this weekend.
12:29
Speaker 1: So now, I mean, the only good thing about this
12:35
Speaker 1: Kimmel situation, he's not going to be around much longer.
12:38
Speaker 1: He's going off the air. They wouldn't give him a
12:41
Speaker 1: new contract. Instead, they gave him an extension, which means
12:45
Speaker 1: we don't really want to sign it in a new contract. Hey,
12:48
Speaker 1: there was a great moment yesterday involving nine to eleven
12:52
Speaker 1: at one Police Plaza. They've created a beautiful memorial to
12:56
Speaker 1: the cops and men and women that lost their lives
12:59
Speaker 1: on nine to eleven. It's a beautiful memorial. It had
13:02
Speaker 1: to be funded privately, and Mayor Mam Donnie came for
13:07
Speaker 1: the ceremony. Well, the guy he's been targeting, torturing, trying
13:11
Speaker 1: to demonize Ken Griffin, the billionaire. Remember he did the
13:16
Speaker 1: video outside Ken Griffin's house trying to ridicule him. Well,
13:20
Speaker 1: Ken Griffin in real life pays a hell of a
13:22
Speaker 1: lot of taxes. He's maybe the biggest taxpayer in New York.
13:27
Speaker 1: And on top of that, he doesn't even live here.
13:29
Speaker 1: He lives in Florida. He doesn't even live here, and
13:31
Speaker 1: here in New York. He gave seven hundred million to charities.
13:36
Speaker 1: That's pretty generous in a place that you don't even live.
13:39
Speaker 1: It's not his home state. He lived in Chicago most
13:42
Speaker 1: and then he moved to Florida, not in New Yorker.
13:45
Speaker 1: He still gave seven hundred million to New York charities,
13:49
Speaker 1: and one of the things he heavily donated to was
13:51
Speaker 1: that beautiful memorial. So when the mayor was doing the ceremony,
13:56
Speaker 1: he had to actually thank Ken Griffin.
13:58
Speaker 3: I also want to thank Ken Griffin funding a memorial
14:00
Speaker 3: wall which will open later this year.
14:03
Speaker 1: Yeah, so he had to acknowledge Ken Griffin, one of
14:07
Speaker 1: the most generous guys in the world. That memorial is
14:10
Speaker 1: actually done by the New York City Police Foundation, which
14:14
Speaker 1: is one of the great charities in New York. You
14:18
Speaker 1: want to give to a great charity, Police Athletic League,
14:21
Speaker 1: one of the very best children's charities, and another great
14:24
Speaker 1: one is the New York City Police Foundation. Susan Bernbaum
14:28
Speaker 1: runs that. But they do so much great work and
14:30
Speaker 1: they raise money to help the cops with whatever they
14:33
Speaker 1: need and take care of them, and then they do
14:36
Speaker 1: things like this memorial. So it's a great, great charity. Hey,
14:41
Speaker 1: this is pretty good news. You know, we got the
14:43
Speaker 1: straits of Hormose closed and President Trump signing an extension
14:48
Speaker 1: of the blockade, because as long as it's closed, Iran
14:50
Speaker 1: is broke. They have no economy. Their whole economy runs
14:54
Speaker 1: through the straight of horm Moose, So as long as
14:56
Speaker 1: it's shut their economy is shut down. So that's good. Now.
15:02
Speaker 1: It could cause us a little increase in oil, but
15:04
Speaker 1: we'll get through that now. The other interesting development is
15:07
Speaker 1: the United Arab Emirates has announced they're going to leave OPEK.
15:12
Speaker 1: So besides getting rid of the awful terrorist government Iran,
15:15
Speaker 1: we may be breaking up OPAK, which is good. Opek
15:18
Speaker 1: is a cartel that would deliberately drive up the price
15:22
Speaker 1: of oil and play games with oil prices. So this
15:25
Speaker 1: is the first break in OPEC. United Arab Emirates is leaving.
15:29
Speaker 1: They don't want to be a part of this cartel.
15:32
Speaker 1: They produce about five million barrels a day, that's big,
15:36
Speaker 1: so they said they don't want to be collaborating, unrestricting
15:39
Speaker 1: supply and deliberately driving prices up, and they were attacked
15:43
Speaker 1: by Iran and all this. They just don't want to
15:45
Speaker 1: be a part anymore. So if we can break up Opak.
15:47
Speaker 1: That'd be another another great result from what we're doing
15:51
Speaker 1: in Iran. Hey, we'll take some calls next. Eight hundred
15:54
Speaker 1: three to two one zero seven ten is the number. Well,
15:58
Speaker 1: by the way, the ballroom, you know, after the shooting,
16:01
Speaker 1: everybody's like, you got to have the ballroom now. And
16:03
Speaker 1: as much as they're trying to block it, you know,
16:06
Speaker 1: left wing lawsuits, with these left wing judges blocking the ballroom,
16:10
Speaker 1: Congress now taken action. Look, they're going to pass the
16:12
Speaker 1: legislation to make the ballroom happen, so it'll be official
16:17
Speaker 1: government legislation. Ballroom Now. They passed something yesterday about the funding,
16:24
Speaker 1: and a lot of people misunderstood this. Now they're screaming,
16:27
Speaker 1: I thought it was going to be taxpayer funded. Why
16:29
Speaker 1: did Congress allocate four hundred million If it's taxpayer funded,
16:32
Speaker 1: why is Congress did not allocate four hundred million of
16:37
Speaker 1: government money. It's very confusing. But what they passed was
16:42
Speaker 1: the problem is if the private donations come in, there's
16:45
Speaker 1: technically legally no way to get it to the government fund.
16:49
Speaker 1: So they just simply created an avenue to have that
16:52
Speaker 1: money go into the government fund and get to the ballroom.
16:55
Speaker 1: That's all that was, but it looks like it will
16:57
Speaker 1: happen anyway. We'll take some calls next eight hundre three
17:00
Speaker 1: to two one zero seven ten, eight hundred three two
17:05
Speaker 1: one zero seven ten. So Mark Simone show on SEVENR.
17:13
Speaker 1: Let's take some calls. Let's go to Vince in Fort Pierce, Florida. Vince,
17:17
Speaker 1: how you doing, Yeah.
17:19
Speaker 4: Good morning.
17:20
Speaker 3: You know there's more to the Comy case, and I
17:22
Speaker 3: hope there is other cases coming, but this one.
17:24
Speaker 5: You know, the FBI has the technology to look at
17:26
Speaker 5: that photo and determine if that sand is from Maryland
17:29
Speaker 5: or Virginia, where they can look at those shelves and
17:31
Speaker 5: determine if they're from the Pacific. They probably subpoened his phone,
17:36
Speaker 5: and they can determine where and when that picture was made.
17:39
Speaker 5: They might have witnesses, but what they might be setting
17:41
Speaker 5: him up for, which nobody knows better than Comy, is
17:44
Speaker 5: a nice perjury trap, and I hope that would be
17:47
Speaker 5: one of the first charges they get him on because
17:49
Speaker 5: he did that to General Flynn.
17:51
Speaker 1: He did that.
17:52
Speaker 3: You mentioned Roger Stone, who they arrested because he supposedly
17:57
Speaker 3: threatened his neighbor's dog and his neighbor even said it
18:00
Speaker 3: was a joke, So nothing is out of balance with
18:03
Speaker 3: called me.
18:03
Speaker 1: Yeah, no, he deserves this, even if it is a
18:05
Speaker 1: flimsy charge. But yeah, there's stuff they can do. His
18:08
Speaker 1: story that he tells he was walking along the beach
18:11
Speaker 1: and he saw the seashells. Nobody quite buys that story.
18:15
Speaker 1: So maybe he laid out the shells himself, or maybe
18:18
Speaker 1: it was a picture he got from somebody else. But
18:20
Speaker 1: from what I hear, there's more charges coming. This silly
18:23
Speaker 1: little thing isn't the whole thing. Apparently there's more coming.
18:27
Speaker 1: Let's go to Skeeter in Long Island. When's last time
18:30
Speaker 1: you met anybody named Skeeter? Skeeter?
18:33
Speaker 4: How are you doing the last time I spoke to you?
18:36
Speaker 6: Oh, good morning, Marks.
18:37
Speaker 4: You always have a great show.
18:39
Speaker 1: Peter Davis. You see the great singer Skeeter Davis. Certainly
18:44
Speaker 1: was the end of the world. That was her big
18:45
Speaker 1: hit I could see. But go ahead.
18:51
Speaker 4: Yeah, well, I asked you a couple of weeks back,
18:54
Speaker 4: what's happening with this investigation near the answer man? And
18:57
Speaker 4: sure enough they got called me coming up and I
18:59
Speaker 4: hope next. But that's not why I called. I called
19:02
Speaker 4: when you said that the secret agents. They were breaking
19:05
Speaker 4: down the equipment. They were relaxed. But Mark, when they
19:09
Speaker 4: turned and pulled their pistols and fired twenty one shots,
19:12
Speaker 4: nobody even hit them.
19:14
Speaker 1: Well, they don't know anything yet because they haven't released
19:18
Speaker 1: all this information. Apparently they did fire and missed. We
19:22
Speaker 1: don't know who shot the Secret Service agent. They won't
19:24
Speaker 1: reveal that. They keep saying they're checking to sea. Was
19:28
Speaker 1: it one of them that hit the Secret Service station
19:30
Speaker 1: or the assassin? They they haven't revealed that yet. Now
19:33
Speaker 1: you think you could find that out in one second.
19:35
Speaker 1: You simply take the bullet out of the bulletproof vest
19:38
Speaker 1: and identify the bullet. But we'll wait and see what
19:40
Speaker 1: they come up with. Let's go to Jeff and Ice. Slip. Jeff,
19:44
Speaker 1: how you doing great?
19:46
Speaker 4: Mark?
19:47
Speaker 2: There was a congressman who was ranting against Lee Zelden
19:51
Speaker 2: during a hearing, same as Robert Menendez, the son of
19:54
Speaker 2: the corrupt guy in prison.
19:56
Speaker 5: Do you know anything about him?
20:00
Speaker 1: Robert Menendez? What more do you need?
20:03
Speaker 6: Okay?
20:04
Speaker 1: Uh? Hey? Lee's Eldon was pretty good on the on
20:07
Speaker 1: the witness stand. He's a he's an attorney. You know,
20:09
Speaker 1: he's been an attorney, so he's pretty good at that
20:12
Speaker 1: cross examination stuff. Let's go to Joel in Florida. Joel,
20:15
Speaker 1: how you doing, Good morning, Mark.
20:18
Speaker 7: You were talking about the Secret Service. I was listening
20:20
Speaker 7: to Dan Bongino, Jonathan gilliam and the former chief of
20:24
Speaker 7: the Secret Service, and he was saying that when the
20:27
Speaker 7: Secret Service was taken away from the Treasury Department and
20:30
Speaker 7: put on the DHS, everything changed. The Secret Service is
20:33
Speaker 7: now both DEI and WOKE, and the people that are
20:36
Speaker 7: currently working there are not fully trained fire, both physically
20:41
Speaker 7: and with their abilities.
20:42
Speaker 1: Yeah, you can see that. You saw that in Butler.
20:46
Speaker 1: Remember those three little female cops. Remember the one who
20:50
Speaker 1: couldn't holster her weapons. She's jumped and the other two
20:52
Speaker 1: are jumping up and down in panic. You're not supposed
20:54
Speaker 1: to show panic at those in those moments. It's a
20:57
Speaker 1: problem everywhere, even New York City Police Department. You're four
21:00
Speaker 1: to hire people who are you know, too short, too slow,
21:04
Speaker 1: too fat to this. You know, they don't look like
21:07
Speaker 1: Danny Reagan when they're out there on the field. Let's
21:09
Speaker 1: go to Vincent and Brooklyn. Vincent, how you.
21:12
Speaker 6: Doing, Good morning, Mark, Good morning. Apparently Obama doesn't have
21:17
Speaker 6: enough money. He started a new Grift company to make films. Mark,
21:22
Speaker 6: you noticed they're not releasing the footage of when the
21:27
Speaker 6: would be assassin ran down the Corrida and all the
21:30
Speaker 6: Secret Service agents ran after him. They're not showing that.
21:33
Speaker 6: They're not releasing that footage. Mark yesterday the guy who
21:40
Speaker 6: was wrongfully arrested in the liquor store and beating up
21:44
Speaker 6: all over here and oh.
21:45
Speaker 1: I forgot about that. Yeah, that's a big story. That
21:48
Speaker 1: guy's going to get fifty million bucks from the city.
21:51
Speaker 6: He's suing the city for one hundred million. He'll get fifty,
21:55
Speaker 6: get a car walk away with.
21:57
Speaker 1: Fifty, he'll get fifty minimum twenty five.
22:00
Speaker 6: And also what came out somebody else had some footage
22:03
Speaker 6: of that showed the guy was already cuffed and they
22:07
Speaker 6: laid a couple of more blows on the guy. That's
22:11
Speaker 6: the icing on the cake. Mark. Just having been in
22:15
Speaker 6: those situations many times in my life where they're here
22:19
Speaker 6: in the city, on planes, on buses, on trains, especially
22:24
Speaker 6: when I'm in Italy, I think those cops they could
22:29
Speaker 6: avoided a lot of trouble. First off, white in they
22:33
Speaker 6: just have wait outside, have two cops on the right
22:37
Speaker 6: side of the door, two cops on the left side
22:40
Speaker 6: of the door, a couple of unmarked cars in the street,
22:43
Speaker 6: and when the guy walked out, they would have said
22:46
Speaker 6: commit bub blah bah, put the cuffs on him, because
22:49
Speaker 6: had that guy really been a criminal and pulled out
22:52
Speaker 6: a gun and there was a shootout in this door
22:54
Speaker 6: a lot of people.
22:57
Speaker 1: What he got hurt?
23:00
Speaker 6: You know?
23:00
Speaker 1: The problem is the guy that looked exactly like the
23:03
Speaker 1: description they were looking for, and this is an incredible coincidence.
23:06
Speaker 1: He was wearing exactly the same green shorts that the suspect.
23:10
Speaker 1: He was wearing the same thing, looked the same. But
23:13
Speaker 1: it's going to be a hell of a lossuit. They'll
23:15
Speaker 1: settle out of court. He's if you saw him on camera,
23:18
Speaker 1: he's a pretty good talker. They don't want to get
23:20
Speaker 1: that guy in the stand. He's compelling figures, so they'll
23:23
Speaker 1: settle with him. Hey, when we come back and Culter
23:26
Speaker 1: will be with us next on seven to ten w
23:29
Speaker 1: R Yeah more Mark Simone on sevent ten. Wo Hey

23:56
Speaker 1: dot substack dot com and Culter.
23:59
Speaker 4: How you doing fantastic?
24:01
Speaker 2: How are you, Mark Simon?
24:03
Speaker 1: I'm good. Have you been watching these Democrats for two days?
24:06
Speaker 1: Fawning all over King Charles standing ovations cheering? What happened
24:11
Speaker 1: to the no Kings?
24:17
Speaker 2: Actualent point, Mark Simone?
24:20
Speaker 1: Now they love a king.
24:23
Speaker 2: It's much like how once he's gone, suddenly they love Reagan.
24:28
Speaker 2: Oh he's so much better than Bush. And once Bush
24:31
Speaker 2: has gone, Oh if only we can go back to
24:33
Speaker 2: the days of Bush. What an honorable man, although I
24:36
Speaker 2: must say I don't ever doing that with Trump. He's
24:40
Speaker 2: in a class by himself, and for that I salute him.
24:43
Speaker 1: Yeah. Well, the only way that works you have to
24:45
Speaker 1: get somebody worse, you know, somebody even more. He better,
24:50
Speaker 1: He's gotta be worse than well. From their perspectives, listen,
24:54
Speaker 1: lover hate Trump, you have to admit the greatest thing.
24:59
Speaker 1: You know. They attacked Reagan like crazy attack Bush. They
25:01
Speaker 1: attacked It's just to see a president who was not
25:04
Speaker 1: a politician get in there and call him names. Tell
25:06
Speaker 1: him off, make fun of them. You got to enjoy
25:08
Speaker 1: that part of it.
25:10
Speaker 3: I do.
25:10
Speaker 2: And also I think his response was absolutely correct after
25:17
Speaker 2: the White House Correspondence dinner. He was right, the show
25:21
Speaker 2: should have gone on. The guy was pretty far away.
25:25
Speaker 2: We're always saying, you know, don't let the terrorists win. Actually,
25:28
Speaker 2: I mean it was dramatic. It's terrible. Of course all
25:32
Speaker 2: the Democrats fall, but no one was ever in any
25:37
Speaker 2: real danger. I didn't get close to the ballroom. They
25:40
Speaker 2: should have let the show go on. And I'm glad
25:43
Speaker 2: that he has not called for yet more security protocols
25:48
Speaker 2: and TSA at the airport.
25:50
Speaker 1: Yeah, but it was grat Have you been to the
25:53
Speaker 1: White House Corresponds dinner? Right?
25:56
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, I used to go a lot when I
25:57
Speaker 2: lived in Washington.
25:58
Speaker 1: But you know, everybody went every You're thinking this is normal.
26:02
Speaker 1: Now when you think about it, how could you do
26:03
Speaker 1: that in an open hotel where there's a thousand strangers
26:06
Speaker 1: staying upstairs. Well, you haven't checked their bags or anything.
26:09
Speaker 1: It is kind of a silly thing that you.
26:11
Speaker 2: Think, Oh my gosh, it's good. I hope they don't
26:13
Speaker 2: change that. I mean, freak events happen of all of
26:17
Speaker 2: the presidential assassination attempts. This one was the most three
26:22
Speaker 2: stooges just I mean, obviously it was dramatic and everyone's
26:26
Speaker 2: paying a lot of attention to it. But the guy
26:28
Speaker 2: at the golf course had a better shot, way better shot.
26:31
Speaker 2: But the Thomas whatever his name was, on the roof.
26:37
Speaker 2: What we what we need is for Democrats to stop
26:41
Speaker 2: calling Trump a fascist, a Nazi, a racist. That's what
26:47
Speaker 2: we really need, and just as a general matter, to
26:50
Speaker 2: lock up criminals and crazy people. But you can't stop
26:54
Speaker 2: every crazy thing. And can you imagine from henceforth any
26:58
Speaker 2: place where the president is expected, You know, over the
27:01
Speaker 2: next week, we're going to have to have our bag research.
27:04
Speaker 2: It's going to be TSA. No, it won't, it won't,
27:06
Speaker 2: it won't. No, no, no.
27:08
Speaker 1: Now, the guy takes the train all the way from Califuni.
27:10
Speaker 1: You say, why would he take Now you start to read, well,
27:13
Speaker 1: there's no TSA. They don't check bags to get in
27:15
Speaker 1: a train. Now, every nut job is going to get
27:18
Speaker 1: on a train if they're going to transport anything, So.
27:21
Speaker 2: Oh please don't make them put TSA on trains. And
27:24
Speaker 2: we're all going to drive and we're all going to die.
27:26
Speaker 2: Driving because flying is safe for trains are safe for No. No,
27:31
Speaker 2: you can't stop every bad thing from happening. Just nothing
27:36
Speaker 2: bad happened.
27:37
Speaker 1: Yeah, so uh hey, uh, let me ask you about
27:41
Speaker 1: we're talking about this earlier this week. The idea was
27:45
Speaker 1: you open the borders, you bring in a million immigrants.
27:47
Speaker 1: The Democrats think will get millions and millions and new
27:50
Speaker 1: Democrats that'll help us. But it turns out, as you
27:53
Speaker 1: always point out, they're third world Democrats. They don't like Republicans,
27:57
Speaker 1: and they don't like these Democrats. They want like really
28:00
Speaker 1: far left stuff. So in the end its screwed up
28:03
Speaker 1: the Democratic.
28:04
Speaker 2: Party, right, Yes, I mean it's more than how left
28:10
Speaker 2: wing they are. They don't want any white Democrats, as
28:15
Speaker 2: has been pointed out. I think it was the President
28:17
Speaker 2: of Indonesia. I forget what his name was, but years
28:19
Speaker 2: ago he said we were not bringing in we're blocking immigration.
28:23
Speaker 2: Because when you have a multi ethnic society, people stop
28:27
Speaker 2: voting on they're on issues on ideology, They vote their race.
28:33
Speaker 2: And that is absolutely what you see in this country.
28:36
Speaker 2: The only people who can vote to meetings and you know, oh,
28:40
Speaker 2: what's the issue. What does this candidate say? Are white
28:43
Speaker 2: voters and the vast majority of the other voters of
28:47
Speaker 2: every ethnic group. They're voting with their ethnic group. You
28:50
Speaker 2: see it in California most of all. I mean, it's
28:53
Speaker 2: not like liberal Democrats or moderate Democrats certainly, no Republicans
28:59
Speaker 2: at all. It's uh, you know, the Mexican Democrats, the
29:03
Speaker 2: Asian Democrats, the Indian Democrats. Uh. And and look at
29:09
Speaker 2: all these congressional districts. Why the whole biting Voting Rights
29:13
Speaker 2: Act is premised on the idea that black people will
29:16
Speaker 2: only vote for a black person. They want a black person.
29:19
Speaker 2: That was a big thing after Hillary ran with white
29:23
Speaker 2: Tim Kaine as her vice president. Remember the big movement,
29:27
Speaker 2: this is the last time we vote for an all
29:28
Speaker 2: white ticket.
29:30
Speaker 1: Yeah. So, but also you get like these Mamdani voters.
29:34
Speaker 1: They're all immigrants who are far far, far left.
29:38
Speaker 7: And yes that's true too.
29:40
Speaker 1: Push is the old Chuck Schumer guys. They all have
29:42
Speaker 1: to now pretend they're really far left. And they look
29:46
Speaker 1: ridiculous trying to do that, don't they mm.
29:48
Speaker 2: Hm, And it won't work. There's still light. This is
29:52
Speaker 2: the end of the white Democrats. I mean, notice how
29:54
Speaker 2: old they all are from you know, Pelosi dive Fi
29:59
Speaker 2: Stenny Lawyer, Chuck Schumer. Their average age is dead and
30:04
Speaker 2: that's the end of them. Biden. Yeah, that's why they
30:08
Speaker 2: have to hold on. You'll notice that the average age
30:10
Speaker 2: of Republicans is far, far younger. All you know, the
30:14
Speaker 2: Marco Ruby and moves and Mike Lee's and so on
30:17
Speaker 2: and so forth. Our average age, I bet you is
30:22
Speaker 2: at least a decade. I haven't looked this up, but
30:26
Speaker 2: below that of the Democrats. But I mean, I'm talking
30:29
Speaker 2: about more senators because who knows who's in the House.
30:33
Speaker 2: And that's because this is they have to desperately hold
30:36
Speaker 2: on and keep pushing them up and doing the weekend
30:38
Speaker 2: at Bernie thing. Otherwise it's it's AOC's and Mondamie's all
30:43
Speaker 2: the way down. Yeah.
30:45
Speaker 1: Uh, it's just I mean, it's just get crazier and crazier. Hey,
30:48
Speaker 1: there's this idea somebody suggested to President Trump. The ICE
30:53
Speaker 1: is Immigration Customs Enforcement. Changed the name to National Immigration
30:58
Speaker 1: Customs Enforcement. That way it would be nice, not ice,
31:01
Speaker 1: and put nice, put nice on all their uniforms on
31:05
Speaker 1: their hat. It's a great idea of that. Yeah, he's
31:09
Speaker 1: all for it. He's trying to get this done. It'll
31:11
Speaker 1: be called nice from now on.
31:14
Speaker 2: That's fantastic. I love that. Well, I do wish they
31:19
Speaker 2: would get I mean, the one thing I maybe Republicans
31:23
Speaker 2: are just this is their negotiating strategy, pretending no, we
31:26
Speaker 2: will accept none of your demands. They should definitely get
31:30
Speaker 2: the body cameras. That has been the biggest boon for police.
31:36
Speaker 2: I mean probably, I don't know, since since working patrol cars,
31:43
Speaker 2: you used to have I write about this periodically, used
31:45
Speaker 2: to have all these cases of especially black lady professors.
31:51
Speaker 2: I've noticed there was a really big one at Prince
31:54
Speaker 2: and it was really ugly, and they get stopt by
31:57
Speaker 2: police officer. They take two Facebook or Instagram, Twitter and
32:01
Speaker 2: starts talking about this this brutal racist cop and make
32:05
Speaker 2: up you know, utterly fanciful stories and there's a huge investigation.
32:08
Speaker 2: The cops are life is about to be destroyed. And
32:10
Speaker 2: then haha, he was wearing a body camera and invariably
32:14
Speaker 2: they were, you know, laughably polite. There major traffic violations.
32:19
Speaker 2: This has saved cops over and over and over again.
32:24
Speaker 2: Ice agents should welcome having body cameras.
32:27
Speaker 1: Yeah, many times, the poor victim. It turns out there
32:30
Speaker 1: are some councilwoman who is screaming at the cops, threatening
32:34
Speaker 1: the cop, calling them all kinds of names. Uh, it's yeah,
32:37
Speaker 1: it's a very Everybody should wear body cams, you know,
32:39
Speaker 1: everybody will be pretty soon. Apparently somewhere in the Apple
32:44
Speaker 1: they're working on a body cam that everybody will wear.
32:48
Speaker 1: It's a little like a little thing. It's like a
32:50
Speaker 1: pin you'll put on your lapel. It will record everything
32:52
Speaker 1: you do all day.
32:54
Speaker 2: Oh I would love that.
33:00
Speaker 1: Well, they think it'll be the next big thing. That way,
33:02
Speaker 1: you won't have to stop and take a selfie. Whatever
33:04
Speaker 1: you saw or did, it'll be in there. You can
33:07
Speaker 1: just go later and look at it and take it
33:08
Speaker 1: out of there.
33:09
Speaker 2: Oh no, I'm thinking about arguments with boyfriend.
33:11
Speaker 1: Oh well, you you're going to need Yeah, you're definitely
33:18
Speaker 1: gonna need that.

35:02
Speaker 1: Well, hey once again, I wouldn't drive around Manhattan today.
35:06
Speaker 1: It's going to be a traffic mess because of the
35:08
Speaker 1: King's visit. King Charles, as we speak, down at the
35:12
Speaker 1: World Trade Center area at the nine to eleven Memorial
35:16
Speaker 1: for a ceremony, so that it's not just the security
35:21
Speaker 1: and all that, but apparently lots of people want to
35:25
Speaker 1: see the King. They're not buying that no kings thing.
35:28
Speaker 1: They like kings and they want to see the King.
35:30
Speaker 1: So hundreds of thousands of people are expected to turn
35:33
Speaker 1: out all over the place to see the King and
35:36
Speaker 1: Queen consort. So World Trade Center area right now. Then
35:42
Speaker 1: after that they split up. She's going to go to
35:44
Speaker 1: the library, a New York Public Library for an event
35:48
Speaker 1: that's around Bryant Park, and he's going to Harlem for
35:51
Speaker 1: some green thing, so he'll be up there. It'll cause
35:55
Speaker 1: a big snarl up in those areas. Then after that,
35:58
Speaker 1: late this afternoon this Eve, they're going to a reception
36:02
Speaker 1: at Christie's, the British auction House, which is in Rockefeller Center,
36:07
Speaker 1: So that's right in midtown Rockefeller Center. That's going to
36:10
Speaker 1: be completely snarled up with the King's visit, and it's
36:14
Speaker 1: going to be right in the middle of a rush hour.
36:17
Speaker 1: So if you're driving, don't come into Manhattan right now,
36:20
Speaker 1: just avoid all that. It's going to be a mess,
36:23
Speaker 1: gridlock everywhere around those areas. So, hey, we're out of time.
36:27
Speaker 1: It's supposed to rain now, that's not going to start
36:29
