Hour 1: Flood watch is in effect · Curtis Sliwa & Larry Mendte In The Morning

0:00
Speaker 1: Well, we had a short respit after some severe weather.
0:04
Speaker 1: We're still recovering from that, and now the potential of
0:08
Speaker 1: another storm, heavy rain expected today, the possibility of thunderstorms.
0:14
Speaker 1: Let's take a deeper dive into all this with Jeff
0:17
Speaker 1: Maher seven to ten WR Weather Channel meteorologists. Let's start
0:21
Speaker 1: with Jeff, thanks a lot for doing this. By the way,
0:25
Speaker 1: when is it all expected to start? And then when
0:28
Speaker 1: will the worst.
0:28
Speaker 2: Of it be? Yeah, it's going to start as we
0:31
Speaker 2: head from the middle part of this morning of the
0:33
Speaker 2: early part of the afternoon. All righty, we're seeing a
0:35
Speaker 2: cluster of some thunderstorms moving out of eastern Pennsylvania into
0:38
Speaker 2: towards West Jersey. But the heaviest rainfall will be as
0:41
Speaker 2: we head from this afternoon to the evening hours. That's
0:43
Speaker 2: why we had the flood wash through late tonight and
0:45
Speaker 2: the risk for severe weather from mid afternoon, probably about
0:48
Speaker 2: two or three o'clock into a body'clock this evening. That's
0:50
Speaker 2: when we could have some damaging wind gus, maybe some hail,
0:52
Speaker 2: possibly you in an isolated tornado.
0:54
Speaker 3: Now, Jeff, I ask you a question.
0:57
Speaker 4: Our officials pretty much have figured if they were doing
1:02
Speaker 4: the prediction market of where all the low lying areas
1:07
Speaker 4: are going to get cloud bird the where there's going
1:09
Speaker 4: to be because of this extreme weather flash flooding. Have
1:13
Speaker 4: they done anything in preparation because this is occurring more
1:18
Speaker 4: and more and more.
1:20
Speaker 2: Yeah, it seems to be for sure. And you know,
1:21
Speaker 2: we had record rainfall on Saturday obviously, and the ground
1:25
Speaker 2: was saturated, and now you know we have another round
1:29
Speaker 2: coming up today and it doesn't take a whole lot
1:31
Speaker 2: of heavier rain. Of course, we're talking about the city
1:33
Speaker 2: to cause some big flooding issues and that's going to
1:35
Speaker 2: be the concern, not as much on your way in
1:37
Speaker 2: this morning, but for your way back home later this
1:40
Speaker 2: afternoon of the evening. That's what we're going to be
1:41
Speaker 2: concerned about. That's what We'll have some heavy downpours and
1:44
Speaker 2: we could light up with us and we said one
1:46
Speaker 2: to two inches across the tri state area, maybe three
1:49
Speaker 2: to four inch tuttels though across parts of the city
1:51
Speaker 2: and in northern parts of Jersey and the lower Hudson Valley.
1:54
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's the possibility of three to four that's really
1:56
Speaker 1: scaring me. And how short of a time is that.
1:59
Speaker 1: And and then we just went through this over the
2:02
Speaker 1: weekend and people were stuck on the roads and in
2:05
Speaker 1: deep water people had to pull over. Is it going
2:08
Speaker 1: to be that bad again today?
2:10
Speaker 2: It could be. It certainly could be as we head
2:13
Speaker 2: from the middle part of the afternoon three o'clock or
2:15
Speaker 2: so into the evening. And you know, now we're going
2:17
Speaker 2: to deal with that heavy rain threat. But we have
2:19
Speaker 2: a warm front that will be in the vicinity and
2:21
Speaker 2: that could cause some severe thudder storms. So we've got
2:23
Speaker 2: a cold front that's going to be closing in from
2:25
Speaker 2: tonight and tomorrow morning, So we'll have another round of
2:27
Speaker 2: rainfall and at the start of Wednesday before improving weather.
2:29
Speaker 2: Tomorrow afternoon we'll start to see some sun breaking through
2:32
Speaker 2: and then we'll have a beautiful stretch of weather from
2:34
Speaker 2: Thursday into our weekend with a whole lot of sunshine
2:36
Speaker 2: and some comfortable temperatures. But we have to get past
2:38
Speaker 2: the bad weather today and into the evening before we
2:41
Speaker 2: see improvements later tomorrow.
2:42
Speaker 4: Now, obviously this sounds like another lemon to make lemonade
2:47
Speaker 4: out of it. Might this spur the growth and development
2:51
Speaker 4: and the artisans creating gondolas for people in each low
2:56
Speaker 4: lying areas.
2:58
Speaker 3: Venus has learned to deal with this. They're always underwater.
3:02
Speaker 4: Might this just be a precursor to some entrepreneurs out there, Hey,
3:07
Speaker 4: let's start creating gotten dolars because in a lot of
3:11
Speaker 4: these areas you're gonna be underwater. We've seen people that
3:14
Speaker 4: basements get flooded time and time again, even sometimes up
3:18
Speaker 4: to the first floor. They don't clean out to catch basins,
3:21
Speaker 4: whether they're private, the city doesn't clean out, or the county,
3:26
Speaker 4: and it's just an endless cycle.
3:28
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's it's a lot to deal with. Obviously in
3:31
Speaker 2: the urban environment, you know that water has to go somewhere,
3:34
Speaker 2: and you mix in some clogged sewers and drains and
3:38
Speaker 2: those kinds of things that could really cause some problems
3:40
Speaker 2: on the roadways. And hopefully we'll get through it okay
3:43
Speaker 2: as we head towards the evening, but you know, not
3:45
Speaker 2: only the heavy rain threat, by that severe weather threat
3:47
Speaker 2: looming as well. So we'll keep you updated here as
3:50
Speaker 2: we make our way towards the evening.
3:52
Speaker 1: All right, Jeff Maher w l R Weather Channel meteorologists,
3:55
Speaker 1: we hope to talk to you again during the show.
3:57
Speaker 1: Thanks for your time.
3:58
Speaker 2: You got to thank you.
4:00
Speaker 1: You know what, I never can understand the people that
4:03
Speaker 1: inevitably are going to get stuck on the road in
4:07
Speaker 1: deep water. Everybody knows where those spots are. Everybody knows
4:11
Speaker 1: people get stuck there, and yet somebody comes up to
4:14
Speaker 1: it and says, oh, I can make it, I can
4:16
Speaker 1: make it through, and then there there they have to
4:18
Speaker 1: be rescued a little bit later. Inevitably that's going to
4:21
Speaker 1: happen today.
4:21
Speaker 4: Well, if I could control a prediction market just for
4:25
Speaker 4: extreme weather. All of those roads in Westchester County, they
4:30
Speaker 4: lead to Connecticut and upstate, they always underwater, you know,
4:33
Speaker 4: right along the Bronx River. Oh my god, the Merrick Parkway,
4:37
Speaker 4: it's little sprints and they're underwater. You say to yourself,
4:41
Speaker 4: what have they done over the yas to try to
4:45
Speaker 4: do something?
4:46
Speaker 1: I mean, you go to a place like Denmark, right,
4:50
Speaker 1: they're underwaters.
4:51
Speaker 4: So they have all those dykes, you know, the little
4:53
Speaker 4: Dutch boy, you know, putting his finger in the dyke.
4:56
Speaker 4: I mean, we've learned them all that. We know down
4:58
Speaker 4: in New Orleans they have that. We never seem to
5:01
Speaker 4: get to that point of building these protective devices to
5:06
Speaker 4: keep these low lying areas out of harm's way.
5:09
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's just money. It's exactly that you'd think it
5:12
Speaker 1: would be important enough. But you know, you talked about
5:15
Speaker 1: Westchester County, New Jersey has a similar problem. If you
5:19
Speaker 1: remember the storm that was over the weekend, that one
5:22
Speaker 1: guy that decided he was going to try to make
5:24
Speaker 1: it through it was like a lake. It was under
5:27
Speaker 1: a train overpass. He got stuck and then he was
5:30
Speaker 1: sliding along the side of the wall trying to be rescued.
5:34
Speaker 1: I mean, look it. If you see water and you're
5:37
Speaker 1: questioning whether I should go or shouldn't go.
5:39
Speaker 5: Don't just don't, definitely don't. There's that phrase turn around,
5:44
Speaker 5: don't drown. There you go, turn around, don't drown. Just
5:47
Speaker 5: keep that in your head when you see it, because
5:50
Speaker 5: I know everybody has that.
5:51
Speaker 1: I could do it. Yeah, I've done it before. That's
5:54
Speaker 1: the other thing, because one time they made it, and
5:56
Speaker 1: so they try to make it again, but.
5:58
Speaker 4: Inevitably invested in this big monster truck of vote yours,
6:03
Speaker 4: four wheel dry built for these moments. You go in
6:06
Speaker 4: there and the next thing you need a fire engine
6:09
Speaker 4: then come to your rescue time and time again. On
6:11
Speaker 4: the BQI on Saturday, that's what was happening. But it
6:14
Speaker 4: was happening all throughout the Tri State area. I am
6:17
Speaker 4: looking forward though to the rain, and I'll tell you
6:20
Speaker 4: why not, because I want to see harm come to
6:23
Speaker 4: our many neighbors, because we know, unfortunately it is we
6:26
Speaker 4: almost We can see people already taking all their items
6:31
Speaker 4: out of their basements and putting it on the curb
6:34
Speaker 4: to be picked up and taken to the landfill. But
6:37
Speaker 4: I took that number two train the Beast down a
6:40
Speaker 4: forty second street Times Square in order to walk up
6:43
Speaker 4: here to do our show this morning for the purpose
6:46
Speaker 4: of seeing what would happen one day after World Cup.
6:50
Speaker 4: Now remember you, Larry, yesterday had to negotiate your way
6:54
Speaker 4: through celebrating fans of Spain that won the World Cup, Natalie.
7:00
Speaker 4: He was watching Span fans being arrested on forty second
7:05
Speaker 4: Street and Eighth Avenue for unruly behavior. All that was
7:10
Speaker 4: going on, it's eying. I want to get out. I
7:12
Speaker 4: want to walk to Times Square. I want to get
7:15
Speaker 4: a sense of who remains.
7:17
Speaker 3: And as I.
7:18
Speaker 4: Emerged, I gotta tell you, it was four o'clock in
7:20
Speaker 4: the morning and I felt I was like I was
7:23
Speaker 4: Travis Pickel from taxi driver, remember that opening scene. Thank
7:27
Speaker 4: God for the rain to wash the trash off the
7:30
Speaker 4: sidewalk and make the flotsam and jetsam disappear. Really is
7:34
Speaker 4: garbage everywhere, and this is always the case, even after
7:37
Speaker 4: World Cup. You would think they'd get the clean up
7:39
Speaker 4: coups out the groups out there like at four in
7:42
Speaker 4: the morning when people aren't going to work, and have
7:44
Speaker 4: it spick and spanned up. That's an old phrase, speaking
7:48
Speaker 4: span speaking spanned up. You know power hooses everything clean
7:52
Speaker 4: for working day. They never do that. But who did
7:55
Speaker 4: I run across? Notts fans from Spain. They must all
8:00
Speaker 4: gone home. They had their parade yesterday in Madrid, you know,
8:03
Speaker 4: their celebration the Argentines. You know, I'm telling you, I'm
8:08
Speaker 4: really starting to dislike the argent.
8:11
Speaker 1: Well, they were jerks on the field, they're probably jerks
8:13
Speaker 1: off the Yeah, I got it, let me tell you.
8:15
Speaker 4: And now I'm gonna give Andrew Giuliani a colliflower eline
8:20
Speaker 4: on this. He's he's already taking victory laps on behalf
8:23
Speaker 4: of President Trump. And you know Trump had appointed him
8:25
Speaker 4: the American to work with FIFA to organize all the
8:29
Speaker 4: matches all over the UN.
8:30
Speaker 1: That's in reject that he's coming up at a twenty five.
8:32
Speaker 1: That is correct. I'm going to not a twenty five.
8:35
Speaker 4: He's coming up at seven thirty.
8:38
Speaker 1: I'm going to be I'm going to beive.
8:41
Speaker 4: Right, I'm going to be giving him a cauliflower ear.
8:44
Speaker 4: Because these Argentines were in Times Square and they're looking
8:49
Speaker 4: for a shot a leg at least that was what
8:51
Speaker 4: they were signaling to me. And they wanted reefer marijuana.
8:56
Speaker 4: And I told him, look, get out of my city,
9:00
Speaker 4: do your last tango here right here in Duffy Square
9:03
Speaker 4: and go back to witness rics please.
9:06
Speaker 2: Now.
9:06
Speaker 4: I don't know if they understood me because they were
9:08
Speaker 4: mostly speaking Spanish, but they are belligerent, they are nasty,
9:13
Speaker 4: and I want Andrew Giuliani to get in touch with
9:16
Speaker 4: the Department of Homeland Security Director now Mowen, and if
9:21
Speaker 4: they haven't left by the end of the workday today,
9:24
Speaker 4: hey get a retainer, right from I support these guys
9:29
Speaker 4: in doubt.
9:30
Speaker 1: They don't want to make my country anymore. My god,
9:33
Speaker 1: you know why the Spaniards wanted to get back because
9:36
Speaker 1: a huge celebration, right, they want to get back to
9:39
Speaker 1: their celebration, Argentinan's.
9:41
Speaker 4: And also no more of them wanted to get arrested.
9:44
Speaker 4: I mean, Natalie was an eyewitness to that. And then
9:47
Speaker 4: we're going to have the return of the Bacchi playing
9:50
Speaker 4: Joe Bartlett. And yes, we're going to discuss something that
9:54
Speaker 4: had bothered me for thirty years, and I know it
9:56
Speaker 4: bothered him. The thirtieth anniversary of t A Flight eight hundred.
10:01
Speaker 4: Now Joe will be joining us at.
10:03
Speaker 5: Eight at eight thirty five.
10:06
Speaker 1: He's been on this. I've been on this.
10:08
Speaker 4: I actually caught Poison Oak and Poison Ivy the double
10:13
Speaker 4: because I was out in the area, that rustic area
10:17
Speaker 4: of the East Mauritius where the TWA flight eight hundred
10:21
Speaker 4: one down. Now, apparently through a release of public information,
10:26
Speaker 4: finally there were faxes coming in from Cairo two days
10:31
Speaker 4: later that alleged that it was Muslim terrorist groups that
10:35
Speaker 4: took down that flight. Wow, and that was during the
10:37
Speaker 4: heyday of the Muslim Brothers. Sure, so I think this
10:43
Speaker 4: really needs a revisit because a lot was said about
10:47
Speaker 4: it at the time. It was never resolved. It's never
10:49
Speaker 4: been resolved for me, and I know for Joe Bartlett.
10:52
Speaker 4: We welcome him back from the Bacchi Court in South Carolina,
10:55
Speaker 4: and you're going to give us an update in a
10:57
Speaker 4: nine o'clock. How many people have fled our area?
10:59
Speaker 1: Like, yeah, exactly, and they a lot of them went
11:03
Speaker 1: to South Carolina too. Yeah, that's all coming up. But
11:06
Speaker 1: coming up next, why is it? And it just seems
11:11
Speaker 1: to be a certain breed democratic female politicians that love
11:17
Speaker 1: to put on airs when they go to different sections
11:20
Speaker 1: of the country. You'll hear the latest to do it
11:23
Speaker 1: coming up next, plus a chance to see John Mellencamp
11:26
Speaker 1: at eight twenty five. Now, let's talk about one of
11:29
Speaker 1: my favorite radio is maybe my favorite radio. It got
11:33
Speaker 1: me through an emergency situation one time when I was
11:37
Speaker 1: at home. Sa Cranes wind up emergency radio, the CC
11:42
Speaker 1: Radio Solar with Bluetooth. It's the great radio for those
11:47
Speaker 1: inevitable emergencies, those inevitable powerless times. It features an oversized
11:54
Speaker 1: solar panel that keeps it charged so it's always ready
11:57
Speaker 1: to go. And talk about having everything for an emergency.
12:01
Speaker 1: You put this next to your bed, or you put
12:02
Speaker 1: it on your windowsill near your bed so it can
12:04
Speaker 1: keep charging. And then when you pick it up during
12:07
Speaker 1: an emergency, it's got to build in flashlight. It also
12:11
Speaker 1: has batteries for a backup. It's a battery strength meter
12:14
Speaker 1: right on there to tell you how much the batteries
12:16
Speaker 1: are charged, and if they need to be recharged, the
12:18
Speaker 1: rechargeable batteries, and if everything else fails. Let's say it's
12:22
Speaker 1: dark out and for some reason the batteries are gone,
12:26
Speaker 1: you can wind it up in the back. It is
12:28
Speaker 1: always ready to go. The CC Radio Solo with Bluetooth.
12:32
Speaker 1: It's all about the size of a brick. Everything that
12:34
Speaker 1: I just talked about is about the size of a brick.
12:37
Speaker 1: With a clean, modern digital design. You can listen to
12:40
Speaker 1: it every day. It's great. The reception is amazing and
12:44
Speaker 1: these you can save five stations like wor so. It
12:48
Speaker 1: has one touch memories, super reception as I said, excellent audio,
12:52
Speaker 1: as I said, it covers am FM weather and weather
12:56
Speaker 1: alerts from Noah. It even doubles as a Bluetooth speak
13:00
Speaker 1: for your favorite shows, podcast of music. It's got everything.
13:05
Speaker 1: It to order. The CC Radio solo with Bluetooth called
13:08
Speaker 1: Sacrane now at eight hundred five two to two eight
13:11
Speaker 1: eight six three. That number again is eight hundred five
13:14
Speaker 1: two two eight eight six three, or you can visit
13:18
Speaker 1: them online at ccrane dot com. That's c c r
13:22
Speaker 1: an dot com. It's also available on Amazon. It has
13:27
Speaker 1: become one of the most popular endorsers in the Democratic Party.
13:32
Speaker 1: She's been traveling across the country stumping for lots of candidates.
13:38
Speaker 1: Now recently she was in Tennessee, and it sounds to
13:42
Speaker 1: me like she's going to run for national office, because
13:45
Speaker 1: here she is going from state to state, the state
13:48
Speaker 1: to state, the state, and everywhere she goes she gets
13:50
Speaker 1: TV time. But she was in Tennessee stumping for the
13:55
Speaker 1: state representative there, justin Pearson, who's running in a tough reelection.
13:59
Speaker 1: Can and she got up in the stage and you
14:04
Speaker 1: tell me if there's something different about the way she's talking.
14:08
Speaker 6: We cannot afford to leave Tennessee behind. We cannot afford
14:14
Speaker 6: to leave Kentucky behind, Alabama behind, Mississippi behind, Georgia behind,
14:21
Speaker 6: South Carolina.
14:22
Speaker 1: Behind behind.
14:26
Speaker 4: Getting that southern accent. How we've heard that before the
14:30
Speaker 4: moment you goes south to the Mason diction line. If
14:33
Speaker 4: you are seeking national audience for a national run, as
14:37
Speaker 4: you had mentioned, you developed that southern twine.
14:41
Speaker 1: But it seems to be a lot of women and
14:44
Speaker 1: Democratic women like Kamala Harris remember her in Georgia.
14:48
Speaker 6: And you all helped us win in twenty twenty, and
14:51
Speaker 6: we're gonna do it again in.
14:52
Speaker 1: Twenty twenty four, over and over again, and then back
14:59
Speaker 1: back in twenty sixteen. This was famous at the time.
15:02
Speaker 1: If you remember when Hillary Clinton went down to West
15:06
Speaker 1: Virginia because she came out against coal. She was gonna
15:09
Speaker 1: shut down all the coal mines, and then she's running
15:11
Speaker 1: for president. She had to go down there and talk
15:13
Speaker 1: to these coal miners and convince them, no, no, no,
15:15
Speaker 1: not you don't worry. I was misunderstood. And there was
15:18
Speaker 1: a guy named Bo that asked her a question, and
15:21
Speaker 1: it was played live on all the cable networks, and
15:24
Speaker 1: this was her answer.
15:25
Speaker 4: I don't feel no ways tired.
15:28
Speaker 3: I come too far from.
15:31
Speaker 1: Where I started from.
15:34
Speaker 5: Nobody told me that the road would be easy.
15:38
Speaker 1: I'm sorry. That was a speech. That was a speech
15:41
Speaker 1: on that same trip.
15:42
Speaker 4: Well, let's just I will give you a little bit
15:45
Speaker 4: more slack. Because she did spend time in Arkansas, you know,
15:50
Speaker 4: with those Rosemary Wood files.
15:53
Speaker 3: She was on the go.
15:54
Speaker 4: She loaded up that pickup truck you know with the
15:57
Speaker 4: Hillbillies and racketeers and left Little Rock and then came
16:01
Speaker 4: up and found that love shack in Chappaquo.
16:03
Speaker 3: In Westchester, so she might have picked it up a.
16:06
Speaker 4: Little bit, you know, when she was living in the
16:09
Speaker 4: governor's mansion there with Bill good old Bill Cha she
16:13
Speaker 4: was born in oh no North Side.
16:15
Speaker 1: You're right, No, you're right. It's so obvious.
16:20
Speaker 4: And who took a sigh of relief when he heard that,
16:24
Speaker 4: the farting man, the schmuck to put chuck a chieshuma
16:29
Speaker 4: because he is terrified that if she announces that she's
16:34
Speaker 4: gonna run in the Democratic primary, it's over. It's rip
16:39
Speaker 4: for him as the US Senator in New York, and
16:42
Speaker 4: he'd like to stay for life. But I guarantee you
16:46
Speaker 4: AOC if she does nothing more, she forces the Democrats
16:51
Speaker 4: to move to the left in terms of the issues
16:54
Speaker 4: that are gonna come front and center on the debate
16:56
Speaker 4: stage and then on the campaign trail. And remember, she's
17:00
Speaker 4: enough even if she loses, even loses substantially. Remember how
17:05
Speaker 4: well Tulsea Gabrick came out of the Democratic primary, even
17:09
Speaker 4: though she did very poorly in terms of the vote total,
17:12
Speaker 4: but her entire national prospectus was risen when she eviscerated
17:20
Speaker 4: that same Harris with her giggle right on that stage.
17:24
Speaker 4: Remember the lady in white came out there and it
17:27
Speaker 4: was like kill Bill. She just took that samurai sort
17:30
Speaker 4: out and took out Harris in Detroit.
17:33
Speaker 3: I'll never forget that.
17:34
Speaker 2: Now.
17:34
Speaker 1: Let's see, now you've run for office a couple of times.
17:37
Speaker 1: Let's just say that you would run for some national office.
17:40
Speaker 1: Would you put on a southern accent?
17:42
Speaker 3: Uh yo? I know that?
17:45
Speaker 2: Now?
17:45
Speaker 4: What was?
17:46
Speaker 3: Remember Hillary had the hot sauce in her bag.
17:51
Speaker 4: I think that was with our own Charlemagne, the god
17:53
Speaker 4: in power one O five right across the hall from us,
17:56
Speaker 4: in which she had to show the brothers and sisters
17:58
Speaker 4: that she was down with them because she had red hots.
18:02
Speaker 4: She had a hot ri in her What design a
18:05
Speaker 4: bag was she carrying that day?
18:07
Speaker 3: I don't know one of them, and nobody believed that.
18:10
Speaker 1: But I was dying for him to say, let me
18:12
Speaker 1: see it, let me see it, and.
18:15
Speaker 3: He never did. Unbelievable.
18:17
Speaker 1: Let's get a quick talk back.
18:19
Speaker 7: In one final thought about the World Cup, I heard
18:23
Speaker 7: that overwhelmingly the people from other countries thought America was
18:26
Speaker 7: terrific and it changed their opinion from things they had heard.
18:31
Speaker 7: People were a lot more friendly and the place is
18:35
Speaker 7: just great, and we don't really appreciate it. Apparently none
18:38
Speaker 7: of them met Curtis Cudgeon from New York.
18:43
Speaker 4: I say, I'm concerned that they liking it so much
18:46
Speaker 4: they didn't go back, and they want to stay here
18:48
Speaker 4: and overstayed the tourist visa and they found love in
18:51
Speaker 4: all the wrong places, and now they want to fake marriage.
18:54
Speaker 3: So we say, but.
18:57
Speaker 1: You're absolutely right, sir, that's that was one one of
19:00
Speaker 1: the great things that happened. That's invaluable the pr and
19:03
Speaker 1: you didn't have to just hear that. You can go
19:05
Speaker 1: on social media. It's all over the place. Now let's
19:08
Speaker 1: get to Daria Aubinger with the six thirty News area.
19:11
Speaker 8: I gotta start with the public service announcement on this.
19:13
Speaker 8: When Curtis, please, for the love of God, don't ever
19:16
Speaker 8: try to do a Southern accent again. As the resident
19:20
Speaker 8: from south of the Mason Dixon line here in this room.
19:24
Speaker 8: My ears are still hurting after that. And if you
19:26
Speaker 8: do want to learn, I will teach you. I do
19:28
Speaker 8: that I can teach you. So as we say where
19:31
Speaker 8: I come from, we're getting a gullywomper later on today,
19:33
Speaker 8: do not forget your umbrella. You're gonna need it, with
19:36
Speaker 8: strong two severe storms expected to roll through this afternoon
19:39
Speaker 8: into tonight. Parts of the area are under flood watches.
19:43
Speaker 8: City officials are warning people who live in flood prone
19:46
Speaker 8: areas to be ready to evacuate. President Trump has a
19:50
Speaker 8: warning for Iran after three US service members were killed
19:53
Speaker 8: over the weekend and a hundred were injured over the
19:55
Speaker 8: past two weeks.
19:56
Speaker 1: He says, every.
19:57
Speaker 8: Time and Ron kills in America soldier, they will pay
20:01
Speaker 8: for that killing many times over. Gas prices are creeping
20:05
Speaker 8: up again as the conflict inner On heats up.
20:08
Speaker 3: The Triple A.

Speaker 8: Texas is using yeast that was a border. Recent SpaceX
20:29
Speaker 8: launch survived payload re entry and was recovered off the
20:32
Speaker 8: coast of California. Next News seven o'clock bulletins at once.
20:36
Speaker 8: I'm Daria Albinger on seven to ten wor.
20:38
Speaker 1: Thank you very much, Daria. I'll tell you what everybody
20:41
Speaker 1: of a certain age, especially in New York remembers the
20:44
Speaker 1: crash of TWA Flight eight hundred. Was it a terrorist
20:48
Speaker 1: attack that has been speculated for a long long time.
20:51
Speaker 1: Will Curtis has some new information he's going to share
20:54
Speaker 1: with us after the break. Plus Joe Bartlett wants to
20:57
Speaker 1: talk about it too, the former news director of w
21:00
Speaker 1: Albar is coming up at eight thirty five. Also, joy
21:05
Speaker 1: is essential and elusive. You can't order it, you can't
21:09
Speaker 1: borrow it. But now there's a new way to start
21:12
Speaker 1: your journey towards a more joyful existence. The Joy one
21:18
Speaker 1: oh one podcast with Hotecopy look for it on the
21:22
Speaker 1: free iHeartRadio app came after.
21:25
Speaker 4: I Gotta tell you, ladies and gentlemen, I never accepted it.
21:30
Speaker 4: Back in the days after July seventeenth, nineteen ninety six,
21:35
Speaker 4: the eventual fourteen month FBI Joined Terrorism Task Force report
21:41
Speaker 4: on the downing of TWA Flight eight hundred, which had
21:46
Speaker 4: departed JFK at about eight nineteen at night on its
21:52
Speaker 4: way to Paris a regular flight, and twelve minutes later,
21:57
Speaker 4: while I was over the marshland of the East Mauritius
22:01
Speaker 4: Way out in Suffolk County, blew up and the debris
22:06
Speaker 4: went into the ocean, and then obviously the beginning of
22:11
Speaker 4: that investigation. Now we have new information provided by Judicial Watch.
22:19
Speaker 4: And that's the other reason that we're going to have
22:21
Speaker 4: Joe bartlett On who has come out of his retirement
22:25
Speaker 4: on the Bachi Courses of South Carolina in order to
22:31
Speaker 4: join us today at eight thirty six, because he, like I,
22:35
Speaker 4: never accepted what was the explanation. And now the Judicial
22:40
Speaker 4: Watch has launched an extensive investigation, has put the documentary
22:46
Speaker 4: that they made on YouTube so you could all see
22:50
Speaker 4: it for yourself, and it talks about how two days
22:54
Speaker 4: after twa flight eight hundred exploded in the sky, that
22:59
Speaker 4: there were foxes from Cairo. Remember this is nineteen ninety six.
23:03
Speaker 4: It was the age of faxes talking about an Egyptian
23:07
Speaker 4: terrorist group. It was taking credit for this and back then,
23:12
Speaker 4: remember the Muslim Brotherhood was running strong. The epicenter of
23:16
Speaker 4: the activity was Egypt. Remember Egypt was the place that
23:21
Speaker 4: Anwa Saddat had been executed by the Muslim Brotherhood when
23:26
Speaker 4: he was reviewing troops and the man who replaced the
23:29
Speaker 4: Mubarik had to dive under the bodies to avoid being
23:32
Speaker 4: executed himself a hot bed of terrorist activity, and at
23:37
Speaker 4: that time, I must tell you, Larry, that the prevailing
23:41
Speaker 4: thought of people who actually had viewed the explosion, because
23:46
Speaker 4: they were looking up in the skies, they felt that
23:50
Speaker 4: it was a missile that had taken down twa flight
23:52
Speaker 4: eight hundred. Obviously, these are not experts, you know, They're
23:56
Speaker 4: just people who were on their porch.
23:58
Speaker 1: It was a very nice night.
24:00
Speaker 4: They were looking up in the stars, and then they
24:02
Speaker 4: saw this explosion and many of them said, my way,
24:06
Speaker 4: looked like a missile in me.
24:08
Speaker 1: And then it was also the bomb theory. Well, let
24:10
Speaker 1: me get back to the missile for a second, because
24:12
Speaker 1: that's really interesting that you said that. In the FBI memorandum,
24:16
Speaker 1: and this is from February nineteen ninety seven, it said this,
24:19
Speaker 1: and this is a quote. Despite an abundance of circumstantial
24:24
Speaker 1: evidence indicating that the plane was hit by a missile
24:28
Speaker 1: fired from a maritime platform, the exact cause of the
24:32
Speaker 1: explosion remains a mystery. That was in the documentary, by
24:37
Speaker 1: the way, and they showed it, so they knew about
24:41
Speaker 1: the missile theory. But they said, even though the evidence
24:45
Speaker 1: was plentiful, it was all circumstantial.
24:48
Speaker 4: So on July eighteenth, I didn't leave it to the authorities.
24:53
Speaker 4: I contacted my friend Joel Shantishamon, who ran traffic for WABH.
24:57
Speaker 4: That's the most important part of a radio station. Behind
25:00
Speaker 4: the scenes. These are the men and women who coordinate
25:03
Speaker 4: the advertising, the public service, announcement to life programming, everything
25:08
Speaker 4: the news. So they it's seamless, and they come in
25:11
Speaker 4: the first of the day. You know, they're the first
25:13
Speaker 4: one in and they're the last one to leave. They
25:14
Speaker 4: work hard. But Joe Santisavan lived in a place called
25:18
Speaker 4: Metal Mirror. It's on the Nassau County side of JFK.
25:23
Speaker 4: In fact, one of the landing strips goes it's not
25:28
Speaker 4: that far, hundreds of feet from his house. So the
25:30
Speaker 4: jet goes right over and he's got the pote outside.
25:32
Speaker 4: You know, they all have boats outside. So it goes Curtis,
25:35
Speaker 4: come with me, we'll go out to the East Mauritius.
25:38
Speaker 4: We went out into the East Mauritius in the marshland
25:41
Speaker 4: and we're you know, treading around. And when we emerged,
25:45
Speaker 4: who did we see? Covenant George Pataki at that time
25:48
Speaker 4: with US Senator Alfonse Ali Boyd de Motto and the
25:51
Speaker 4: FBI director of the Southern District, and they were conducting
25:55
Speaker 4: a press conference, you know, right near where they felt,
25:58
Speaker 4: uh you know, some of the debris had landed, oh,
26:01
Speaker 4: most had landed in the ocean, and they talked about
26:04
Speaker 4: those possibilities, and then they grabbed all the particular over
26:09
Speaker 4: those fourteen months and actually put the plane all back
26:13
Speaker 4: together in a hangar so that it.
26:15
Speaker 3: Was almost whole.
26:16
Speaker 4: That's how intensive an investigation it was the problem for me,
26:21
Speaker 4: Larry and Natalie was while he was out here in
26:24
Speaker 4: the East Mauritius with Joe Santissa, ban I got not
26:28
Speaker 4: only poison ivy, I got poison oak.
26:32
Speaker 3: You know what the combination of the two are.
26:34
Speaker 1: That's horrible.
26:35
Speaker 4: Man. I was basically put into hibernation. I had to
26:39
Speaker 4: use my aunt Mary's o cure, Bade's cure. You have
26:43
Speaker 4: to use the excrement of the horse. So where did
26:47
Speaker 4: I go? Central Park right, which is where they still
26:49
Speaker 4: have the horses and the carriages. Got something you have
26:52
Speaker 4: to take a warm bath with it and put the
26:56
Speaker 4: chips in there. And you know that gave me relief.
26:59
Speaker 4: The old Italian Body's solution of ukhava chips gave me
27:04
Speaker 4: relief from poison ivy and poison oak. So if any
27:08
Speaker 4: of you are out there in the summer season is
27:10
Speaker 4: when it spreads. I'm sure Natalie you've had your fast share. Larry,
27:14
Speaker 4: you and you were the gardener out there on your
27:16
Speaker 4: heads and your wife, you know, may bring showers.
27:21
Speaker 3: Oh no, April brings showers. May brings early flowers.
27:25
Speaker 4: Anybody who has just gotten one, it's nasty, but both together.
27:28
Speaker 1: My sister got it so bad she had to go
27:31
Speaker 1: to the hospital. She was in so bad, you can
27:33
Speaker 1: get it horribly. As a matter of fact, I got
27:35
Speaker 1: to thank her because after that my father went and
27:39
Speaker 1: got a house down the shore for the entire summer,
27:41
Speaker 1: because there's no poison ivy or poison oak down the shore.
27:44
Speaker 1: Nice and so I score yes, thanks to her, thanks
27:48
Speaker 1: to her horrible allergy, I got all my summers.
27:52
Speaker 4: At the show, you said, Jersey Show. That's one of
27:54
Speaker 4: the homes of Tom Kaine junior. As you know, whether
27:58
Speaker 4: New York Times found him when he did emerge, but
28:02
Speaker 4: even since he's emerged, and both you and I listened
28:06
Speaker 4: intently to what he said on the hill. We said,
28:08
Speaker 4: oh my god, he suffered this deep depression. Apparently he's
28:12
Speaker 4: been like the sphinx, still won't speak.
28:16
Speaker 3: We'll get to that up next.
28:18
Speaker 1: Congressman Tom Caan missed months and months of votes, over
28:22
Speaker 1: a hundred votes. Everybody wondered where he was. He wasn't
28:26
Speaker 1: saying anything. And when he finally re emerged about a
28:31
Speaker 1: month ago, a little bit less than a month ago,
28:35
Speaker 1: he said he was suffering with depression, and everybody understood.
28:38
Speaker 1: Everybody went, oh my god, that can really be debilitating.
28:41
Speaker 1: Now we understand he was a little bit embarrassed about it.
28:44
Speaker 1: He thought it would go away. It kept continuing, and
28:47
Speaker 1: now everybody was gracious about it. Everyone and he went
28:51
Speaker 1: up on the House floor and he gave an impassioned
28:54
Speaker 1: speech about depression and what he was going through.
28:59
Speaker 3: That was it.
29:01
Speaker 1: Silence after that. Have you seen a media interview with him?
29:07
Speaker 1: Have you seen him out in the community at all?
29:10
Speaker 1: Even people that were expecting him to get out and
29:13
Speaker 1: at least raise money for his reelection campaign have been
29:19
Speaker 1: disappointed that he's not raising money. Now it's not that
29:25
Speaker 1: Rebecca Bennett, the Democrat, the helicopter flying health executive, who
29:31
Speaker 1: is impressive, is doing much better. She apparently has raised
29:36
Speaker 1: four point three million dollars for her election campaign, which
29:39
Speaker 1: is not going to be enough. Democratic money will start
29:42
Speaker 1: coming in, but that's nowhere near enough to run an
29:47
Speaker 1: effective campaign in a competitive race. But Tom Caine must
29:51
Speaker 1: have heard the rumors, because I heard them from Republicans.
29:54
Speaker 1: They were really disappointed in him. He won't answer questions.
29:57
Speaker 1: I think you've probably seen videos of him walking down
30:00
Speaker 1: on the hallways and the reporters trying to get him
30:02
Speaker 1: in the hallways of Congress. He won't answer a question.
30:05
Speaker 1: He will stand there stone face, staring into space rather
30:09
Speaker 1: than as answer a question. So he put out now
30:14
Speaker 1: a release saying he's got over one hundred million dollars
30:20
Speaker 1: one hundred million dollars in campaign funds to run, most
30:25
Speaker 1: of it, you know, from packs, most of it coming
30:27
Speaker 1: in because of the committees that he's on, the insurance
30:30
Speaker 1: industry for instance, giving a lot of money. And that
30:33
Speaker 1: is what you get when you are an elected official.
30:37
Speaker 1: That's why it's hard to beat someone who's already in office.
30:41
Speaker 1: But so I guess he feels like he's spending most
30:44
Speaker 1: of his time down the shore. He only shows up
30:46
Speaker 1: for votes and he's not in his office A lot
30:49
Speaker 1: always been and I've talked to him several times, and
30:52
Speaker 1: he stiffed me on interviews a couple of times. He's
30:55
Speaker 1: always been a strange dude. But I think right now
31:00
Speaker 1: he's still recovering from the depression. He's got so much
31:03
Speaker 1: money in his war chest. He almost is acting like
31:07
Speaker 1: he believes he has this wrapped up like a placebo candidate.
31:12
Speaker 1: In a way, is that he is the candidate. People
31:15
Speaker 1: know him because he's represented the area. In fact, Larry
31:18
Speaker 1: I was telling you the first time I ever met him,
31:21
Speaker 1: he was running for the US Senate.
31:24
Speaker 3: This is before Congress.
31:26
Speaker 4: He was running for the US Senate against Menendez, right,
31:28
Speaker 4: Bobby Menendez, who had replaced Bob de Torch torus sell it.
31:33
Speaker 3: Oh my god, you talk about.
31:34
Speaker 1: Somebody who needed.
31:37
Speaker 4: Not viagra but Saultpeter. This guy was chasing skirts me.
31:42
Speaker 4: He was dating Beyonca Jagger at the time. You know,
31:45
Speaker 4: he had his tomato patches. He was the pit bull
31:49
Speaker 4: for Donald Trump. If any Indian nation in New Jersey, claimed,
31:53
Speaker 4: you know, Casino writes, because he were an Indian nation,
31:56
Speaker 4: he would hold congressional hearings. No you don't, you can't
31:59
Speaker 4: affect Atlantic City. He was also a celebrity in Washington, DC.
32:05
Speaker 4: Oh Man, he'd go to all the parties and so.
32:07
Speaker 4: But then he hooked up with that Korean infortunately who
32:11
Speaker 4: sugared him up because his Korean wanted money back from
32:14
Speaker 4: North Korea. Now, I don't know how Bob the torch
32:17
Speaker 4: Torseli at that time convinced this Korean guy that he
32:21
Speaker 4: was going to get his money back from the evil
32:23
Speaker 4: seat of Kim Jung mentally ill behind the reis Kate
32:26
Speaker 4: curtain of North Korea. But he did, and he got
32:28
Speaker 4: sweetened up and before he got indicted and convicted, and
32:33
Speaker 4: he would have been in jail before Bobby Menendez go
32:36
Speaker 4: Bob Menendez is now he decided to give it up
32:40
Speaker 4: and that's when, all of a sudden, along came Bobby Menendez.
32:44
Speaker 4: You know, the power of northern New Jersey, in the
32:47
Speaker 4: most corrupt county. He was the titular county leader. You know,
32:51
Speaker 4: he was the power and ended up becoming the ahead
32:55
Speaker 4: of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee.
32:58
Speaker 3: So powerful that he was.
33:00
Speaker 4: But I remember meeting him at that time and he
33:04
Speaker 4: was an enigma. Then you know it's here it is.
33:07
Speaker 4: You grow up and you see Tom Kane shena New
33:11
Speaker 4: Jersey on you. He never moves out, you know that
33:13
Speaker 4: top lip love by all. Very yes, very absolutely guarious,
33:18
Speaker 4: you know, always forthcoming, always smiling, always had a smile
33:22
Speaker 4: on his face.
33:23
Speaker 1: I've interviewed him several times. I flew on a plane
33:26
Speaker 1: with him when he was trying to get the Saturn
33:27
Speaker 1: plant in New Jersey. He was maybe the most endearing
33:31
Speaker 1: politician I have ever met in my life. You just
33:34
Speaker 1: like him when you talk to him.
33:36
Speaker 4: Nothing rubbed off on the shun though not now you
33:42
Speaker 4: talk about how Tom Kaine Junior is not answering questions
33:45
Speaker 4: although he's back in it. He's up on the hill,
33:49
Speaker 4: he's going to his committee meetings. Obviously he has to
33:51
Speaker 4: have this course with his colleagues here, but he's not
33:54
Speaker 4: He's not taking any requests or interviews. And then when
33:57
Speaker 4: all of a sudden, as you pointed out, the generals
34:00
Speaker 4: chased him down the hall, he's not answering any questions. Well,
34:04
Speaker 4: oh boy, I'd love to have a primetime seat today
34:07
Speaker 4: in the US Senate Committee hearing because our second area
34:11
Speaker 4: of war, Pete HeiG Seth, is going to be cross
34:14
Speaker 4: examined in the Senate today. Now you know, Pete Hegg
34:18
Speaker 4: Seth never says yes, no, you know, gives a one.
34:21
Speaker 4: He gives it as well as he takes incoming, you know,
34:25
Speaker 4: so he redirects it.
34:27
Speaker 1: He'll be adversarial.
34:29
Speaker 4: I'm sure Donald Trump will be loving this Senate hearing
34:33
Speaker 4: because that's his number one guy.
34:34
Speaker 1: You know.
34:34
Speaker 4: Pete Hegg said that, says guy, you know, he's like
34:37
Speaker 4: a Tomahawk missile. He's ready to strike you. And then
34:41
Speaker 4: of course there's the President himself. That's why it's going
34:44
Speaker 4: to be great up next our White House corresponding to
34:48
Speaker 4: see what's going on, what's the thinking behind ten days right?
34:54
Speaker 4: Ten todays straight of bombing? And is there any discussions
34:58
Speaker 4: about peace? And my god, we're getting closer and closer
35:02
Speaker 4: in these midterm elections were less than four months away,
35:06
Speaker 4: and I know it fluctuates, you know, a barrel of oil.
35:10
Speaker 4: We're starting to creep up now because of all this
35:14
Speaker 4: uh Michigan goy shale over the stretch of her moves
35:17
Speaker 4: and may go back to like foot dollars a gallon
35:19
Speaker 4: old police.
35:20
Speaker 3: No, no, no, no, you think.
35:22
Speaker 1: You think a White House guy's gonna know?
