  Speaker 1: Here's more. Mark Simone on seven to ten, wor hey
• 0:08
  Speaker 1: it's our number three. Oh good, Yeah, it's a three
• 0:11
  Speaker 1: hour show. Now this today. A little later, Scott Bessett
• 0:16
  Speaker 1: will announce steps being taken against Iran to once and
• 0:20
  Speaker 1: for all put them out of business. The economy in
• 0:23
  Speaker 1: a shambles over there. We have completely shut down all
• 0:27
  Speaker 1: revenue coming into Iran and final step will be well,
• 0:34
  Speaker 1: the next step. It might not be the final step,
• 0:36
  Speaker 1: but hopefully this will be all that's necessary. Bessett will
• 0:41
  Speaker 1: announce in toughest economic sanctions ever on a country. He's
• 0:45
  Speaker 1: calling it the Economic Offensive, and he'll announce that later today.
• 0:52
  Speaker 1: Things are looking really bad in Tehran. Even the New
• 0:54
  Speaker 1: York Post, which is often very critical of Donald Trump,
• 0:57
  Speaker 1: said clearly he's winning this. They are completely crippled economically.
• 1:02
  Speaker 1: I know you watch TV and there's the Supreme Commander
• 1:05
  Speaker 1: Iranian this and that, and he's got metals and epaulets
• 1:08
  Speaker 1: and a hat. But he's working out of a cave
• 1:12
  Speaker 1: and they're completely broke, completely cut off. Their economies in
• 1:16
  Speaker 1: total collapse. There is absolutely no oil flowing for them.
• 1:20
  Speaker 1: We're using the straight of horn moose. We've got oil
• 1:23
  Speaker 1: flowing on the southern corridor, but their northern corridor ran
• 1:27
  Speaker 1: unable to use it at all. Its largest trading partner,
• 1:30
  Speaker 1: the UAE, has cut them off from all transactions. Dubai,
• 1:36
  Speaker 1: which was a key to helping Tehran evade sanctions through
• 1:39
  Speaker 1: the years, has now cut them off. Iranian inflations at
• 1:44
  Speaker 1: ninety percent. So it's pretty bad. It's looking pretty grim.
• 1:49
  Speaker 1: So well, hear what these sanctions are a little later today,
• 1:52
  Speaker 1: and then some think Iran can't last another couple of
• 1:55
  Speaker 1: weeks with this economic damage. Prince Harry will get the
• 2:02
  Speaker 1: Prince Harry and the Megan Markele coming up. They're leaving,
• 2:05
  Speaker 1: thank god. Hear the story on the news of pot
• 2:09
  Speaker 1: seventeen percent smoking weed, smoking pot seventeen percent of America. Now,
• 2:15
  Speaker 1: from what I hear, Mom, Donnie has gone over the
• 2:20
  Speaker 1: top with the pot use. Apparently this is like his
• 2:23
  Speaker 1: main activity. Now, remember that happened with Deblasio, where it
• 2:28
  Speaker 1: didn't seem much at the Blasio and at night, you ever,
• 2:30
  Speaker 1: some you know, normally when you're the mayor of New York,
• 2:33
  Speaker 1: when you're Giuliani, when you're at Kach, when you're Bloomberg.
• 2:36
  Speaker 1: Every night you're out as mayor. You're running around to
• 2:39
  Speaker 1: every event. You're at the charity galla to shake hands,
• 2:43
  Speaker 1: You're at this other event, you're at a ribbon. You're
• 2:46
  Speaker 1: just running around doing events. Every night, you're at Yankee Stadium.
• 2:51
  Speaker 1: You're here, you're there. You're just a big part of
• 2:53
  Speaker 1: New York and every night there's a bunch of very
• 2:56
  Speaker 1: important events, and you're there. Nobody, nobody ever saw had
• 3:01
  Speaker 1: the Blaseo at anything. Nothing ever. Ever, he was behind
• 3:05
  Speaker 1: the walls the Gracie Mansion. Remember he had the walls
• 3:07
  Speaker 1: made higher. You know, the eight foot wall became a
• 3:10
  Speaker 1: sixteen foot wall because you didn't want you to see
• 3:13
  Speaker 1: what was going on in there. But you could see
• 3:15
  Speaker 1: the smoke, and you could you could smell that pot
• 3:21
  Speaker 1: in the air coming there. And then a lot of
• 3:24
  Speaker 1: people are on his police detail started to complain that
• 3:27
  Speaker 1: when they left him, their clothes smelled like pot. So
• 3:30
  Speaker 1: we're getting the same reports now about Mom Donnie. Apparently
• 3:34
  Speaker 1: that's going on. But that's good. Let the guy gets
• 3:36
  Speaker 1: nothing done now. Let him just get stoned into absolutely nothing.
• 3:41
  Speaker 1: The BQE the part that the city owns or runs,
• 3:46
  Speaker 1: the bque The Brooklyn Queen's expressly looks like it's in
• 3:49
  Speaker 1: total disrepair. They showed video where you could see it's
• 3:52
  Speaker 1: coming apart, it's cracking the concrete. The whole gotta be fixed.
• 3:56
  Speaker 1: So Mom Donnie announced it'll be fixed. He's good. They're
• 3:59
  Speaker 1: gonna fix it. He's had a plan to fix it.
• 4:02
  Speaker 1: They're going to start in twenty thirty. That's four years
• 4:06
  Speaker 1: for now. They're going to start in four years. He
• 4:10
  Speaker 1: predicts the construction will take ten years, so that's twenty forty. Now. Again,
• 4:17
  Speaker 1: this is Mom Donnie. The guy's just a kid. He's
• 4:21
  Speaker 1: thirty two years old. He's never had a job in
• 4:24
  Speaker 1: his life, never had a job, never worked. So they'll
• 4:30
  Speaker 1: start in twenty thirty. You know, it's like, you know,
• 4:34
  Speaker 1: if the road at Trump's golf course in Bedminster had problems,
• 4:38
  Speaker 1: if it was all cracked, that would be fixed by
• 4:41
  Speaker 1: five o'clock today, by five o'clock they'd have it all fixed.
• 4:44
  Speaker 1: But this is construction on This will start in twenty thirty.
• 4:47
  Speaker 1: In four years, they'll start. You see the Grand Prix
• 4:51
  Speaker 1: yesterday in Washington, DC. The President was there. It was
• 4:58
  Speaker 1: it's not Formula one. This is actually Indy Car. You
• 5:00
  Speaker 1: got NASCAR, which is like stock cars, and then real
• 5:04
  Speaker 1: racing cars. It's like Indy Car, which is like in
• 5:07
  Speaker 1: the middle, like the Indianapolis five hundred, and then you
• 5:11
  Speaker 1: got the Formula one that's like the highest and the
• 5:14
  Speaker 1: fancy race cars. But this was Indy Car. It was
• 5:19
  Speaker 1: all around the streets of Washington, d C. President Trump
• 5:24
  Speaker 1: waved the green flag. Apparently it drove the left nuts,
• 5:30
  Speaker 1: the left wing cooks, the climate change people, they went
• 5:33
  Speaker 1: nuts because remember these are indie racing cars. They burned
• 5:38
  Speaker 1: more fuel in two seconds than most cars burn in
• 5:40
  Speaker 1: a year. I mean they go through twenty tanks of
• 5:43
  Speaker 1: gas in a race. And President Trump's waving a green flag.
• 5:46
  Speaker 1: It drove them nuts. This guy was he the winner?
• 5:49
  Speaker 1: A Kirkwood.
• 5:50
  Speaker 2: That will only be one winner of the Freedom to fifty?
• 5:53
  Speaker 1: And how fits a.
• 5:55
  Speaker 2: That's Kyle as a sectary of transportation waves a check
• 6:00
  Speaker 2: at flag Kyle kirk With wins an American on the
• 6:05
  Speaker 2: top step of the podium at the Freedom to fifty.
• 6:08
  Speaker 1: Yes, see that gets liberals very upset. The real left wing,
• 6:13
  Speaker 1: the climate change. They like the way the electric car sounds.
• 6:16
  Speaker 1: It sounds like this. That's the that makes they don't like.
• 6:22
  Speaker 2: The man of the freedom to fifty.
• 6:28
  Speaker 1: That sound that is Kyle. That sound upsets them. So
• 6:34
  Speaker 1: is this President Trump? I mean this is this is Kirkwood,
• 6:37
  Speaker 1: This is Kirkwood himself.
• 6:38
  Speaker 3: I mean it hasn't really settled in yet. Right, Like
• 6:41
  Speaker 3: I won the race, I get out of the car,
• 6:43
  Speaker 3: I see President Trump sitting there cheering me on as
• 6:47
  Speaker 3: a proud American. That's a that's a that's a pretty
• 6:50
  Speaker 3: big deal to have the president cheering you on. Nothing
• 6:53
  Speaker 3: else like it, right.
• 6:54
  Speaker 1: Yeah, it's pretty amazing. But these climate change lefties. You
• 6:58
  Speaker 1: know the other thing in California, they're trying to ban tires. Now,
• 7:03
  Speaker 1: that's the way. They don't want anybody driving a car anymore.
• 7:06
  Speaker 1: So they they're trying to pass some crazy law that'll
• 7:09
  Speaker 1: outlaw like seventy five percent of the tires sold, which
• 7:13
  Speaker 1: means you won't be able to get tires for your car.
• 7:15
  Speaker 1: So when they see a Formula one or when they
• 7:18
  Speaker 1: see IndyCar, drive them crazy. You know, these guys in
• 7:23
  Speaker 1: one race, they'll use like twenty sets of tires. You know,
• 7:26
  Speaker 1: they pull into the pit stop every twenty minutes, have
• 7:29
  Speaker 1: the tires changed. And those are big, enormous tires, and
• 7:32
  Speaker 1: they just wear them down. To nothing, so they have
• 7:34
  Speaker 1: to change the tires and the old tires are thrown out.
• 7:37
  Speaker 1: So you never see this at you know, when you're
• 7:39
  Speaker 1: watching IndyCar and NASCAR. But at the end of the day,
• 7:43
  Speaker 1: massive trucks have to come and pick up three hundred
• 7:46
  Speaker 1: used tires or more than that, seven hundred used tires
• 7:49
  Speaker 1: and throw them out. This drives the left crazy, not
• 7:52
  Speaker 1: to mention all that gas they keep keep burning. But
• 7:56
  Speaker 1: it was beautiful to watch, very picturesque Long Island. You
• 8:00
  Speaker 1: good news. You got Bruce Blakeman as your county executive
• 8:03
  Speaker 1: in Nassau County, and there was a terrible damage from
• 8:06
  Speaker 1: that storm, the tornado that hit the Atlantic Beach Club there.
• 8:11
  Speaker 1: You know, he lives there, He lives right near there,
• 8:13
  Speaker 1: so he's on top of it. They're getting that fixed
• 8:15
  Speaker 1: luckily nobody hurt and taking care of that, putting everything
• 8:20
  Speaker 1: back together. That's good news. Hey. The other mom Donnie
• 8:24
  Speaker 1: crazy thing is this crazy mom Donnie is teaming up
• 8:29
  Speaker 1: with the DSA, these Democratic Socialists and the Teamsters and
• 8:34
  Speaker 1: they're trying to keep Amazon out of New York. You know,
• 8:37
  Speaker 1: Amazon wanted to build some facilities here. Well, why would
• 8:41
  Speaker 1: you do that? Well, because they use, They hire local
• 8:44
  Speaker 1: delivery firms. They don't bring in their own guys. So
• 8:49
  Speaker 1: Amazon uses about forty small businesses to do the delivery
• 8:54
  Speaker 1: on the ground. Well, what is wrong with this? This
• 8:56
  Speaker 1: sounds great. They come in, they hire forty local delivery companies,
• 9:01
  Speaker 1: they build big warehouses here. The warehouse is not like
• 9:05
  Speaker 1: a data center. Warehouses quiet nice. So why would you
• 9:09
  Speaker 1: be against this? You know this Amazon stuff is like
• 9:13
  Speaker 1: ten thousand jobs in New York. Well it's Mamdani, the DSA,
• 9:17
  Speaker 1: Democratic Socialists and the Teamsters. Well, apparently the problem is
• 9:20
  Speaker 1: these are small businesses, these delivery companies, and they're not union.
• 9:25
  Speaker 1: So just because they're not union, but these small businesses,
• 9:29
  Speaker 1: delivery businesses, they seem fine with it. But because of that,
• 9:33
  Speaker 1: they're going to give Amazon a hard time and basically
• 9:36
  Speaker 1: chase them out of the city. So Amazon is already
• 9:40
  Speaker 1: talking about moving all operations to New Jersey. That would
• 9:44
  Speaker 1: cost New York about ten thousand jobs. And by the way,
• 9:49
  Speaker 1: those jobs impact minorities the most. You'd think that's something
• 9:54
  Speaker 1: that I'm Donnie and the DSA would care about, but
• 9:56
  Speaker 1: they're being led around by these unions. In fact, they're
• 10:00
  Speaker 1: talking about they're trying to get the city council to
• 10:02
  Speaker 1: pass a law that Amazon can't use subcontractors in the
• 10:07
  Speaker 1: city for delivery. Again. That would cause them to move
• 10:10
  Speaker 1: to New Jersey. You know the great thing if you're
• 10:12
  Speaker 1: in New York City, if you're in the middle of Manhattan,
• 10:14
  Speaker 1: you order some on Amazon, you get it the next day.
• 10:17
  Speaker 1: If you're in the suburbs, you know, you're lucky. If
• 10:18
  Speaker 1: you know it might be two days, three days from
• 10:21
  Speaker 1: city always next day. That could change if Mom Donnie
• 10:25
  Speaker 1: gets away with this crap. You know, the city council.
• 10:28
  Speaker 1: You got Julie men in the City council speaker. She's
• 10:30
  Speaker 1: a pretty common sense, middle of the road type, but
• 10:34
  Speaker 1: you got crazies on the city council, so she's got
• 10:37
  Speaker 1: to stop this. They're proposing all kinds of stupid things.
• 10:40
  Speaker 1: They're backing dozens of ridiculous bills. There's one that would
• 10:46
  Speaker 1: abolish the NYPD gang database, which you really need. You know,
• 10:51
  Speaker 1: if they arrest somebody, they got a database of the gangs.
• 10:54
  Speaker 1: They can check right away see if this is a
• 10:56
  Speaker 1: gang member. City council proposing to get rid of that
• 11:00
  Speaker 1: so they can't fight the gangs and the gang members
• 11:03
  Speaker 1: as much. There's also one bill, a set of thirty
• 11:06
  Speaker 1: dollars minimum wage that would put a lot of businesses
• 11:10
  Speaker 1: out of business. You can't pay thirty dollars minimum wage.
• 11:13
  Speaker 1: There's another one would give pet owners sick leave if
• 11:17
  Speaker 1: their dogs are ill. I don't know. I mean, that
• 11:23
  Speaker 1: sounds pretty stupid. But if you got a dog and
• 11:25
  Speaker 1: you'll love your dog, and your dog is sick and
• 11:28
  Speaker 1: you want to be home with it, but it's still
• 11:30
  Speaker 1: it's it's ridiculous. So hopefully got to stop all these
• 11:36
  Speaker 1: crazy bills. Hey, Jared Kushner the President's chief negotiator. I
• 11:42
  Speaker 1: don't know what this Jared Kushner does. He look like
• 11:44
  Speaker 1: a chief negotiator. Do you ever hear him talk? I mean,
• 11:51
  Speaker 1: I can't picture him talking to terrorist Iranians, but listen
• 11:56
  Speaker 1: to President knows more about that stuff than I do.
• 11:59
  Speaker 1: Negotiating got Jared doing it. He met with Hakim Jeffries
• 12:04
  Speaker 1: late last week. Jared Kushner met with Hakim Jeffries to negotiate.
• 12:10
  Speaker 1: I guess they're thinking, what happens if the Democrats win,
• 12:13
  Speaker 1: Jeffries will become the Speaker of the House. That's a
• 12:16
  Speaker 1: frightening thought. A mutual friend that both of them arranged
• 12:21
  Speaker 1: a private space in New York City. That means they
• 12:24
  Speaker 1: did it in somebody's apartment. They got together, the two
• 12:28
  Speaker 1: of them, and talked. They were trying to find common ground,
• 12:32
  Speaker 1: and they discussed certain things that the Trump Republicans and
• 12:37
  Speaker 1: the Hakim Jeffrey left wing could agree on. One was housing,
• 12:42
  Speaker 1: one was immigration and high cost of the living. Now
• 12:45
  Speaker 1: why would they do this, Well, it could be that
• 12:51
  Speaker 1: they're just being cautious. You know, Trump realizing he could
• 12:54
  Speaker 1: lose the midterms. It doesn't look bad for him in
• 12:56
  Speaker 1: the polling right now, but who knows what polling they got.
• 13:00
  Speaker 1: So in case the Democrats take office, they want to
• 13:05
  Speaker 1: get along better with Jefferies because he would be in
• 13:07
  Speaker 1: you know, it could be impeachment every week. Every week
• 13:12
  Speaker 1: they'd be trying to impeach the president over something or
• 13:13
  Speaker 1: cut him off from all funding. So that's why they're
• 13:17
  Speaker 1: reaching out to Hakeem Jeffries. Makes sense for the Trump people,
• 13:21
  Speaker 1: But Jeffery's getting a lot of flack from the crazy left.
• 13:24
  Speaker 1: They're all upset now. They're mad at Hakim Jeffries for
• 13:29
  Speaker 1: taking the meeting. He will not say that he met
• 13:31
  Speaker 1: with him, but it is confirmed by multiple sources. Also
• 13:35
  Speaker 1: says the two men have stayed in touch through the years.
• 13:39
  Speaker 1: He got to remember, Jared Kushner was in the Trump
• 13:42
  Speaker 1: White House in the first term, way back when he
• 13:46
  Speaker 1: was in the first term, and Jeffries was in Congress then.
• 13:49
  Speaker 1: So apparently they've had a relationship for a long time.
• 13:53
  Speaker 1: This is not sounding good for Jeffries. You know, the
• 13:55
  Speaker 1: crazy left hates him. Hey, So this couple is in
• 14:01
  Speaker 1: the Met, the Metropolitan Museum, the Great Museum on Fifth
• 14:04
  Speaker 1: Avenue up in the eighties, the Met and the guy
• 14:08
  Speaker 1: is going to propose to his girlfriend and in the
• 14:13
  Speaker 1: museum there's a certain spot. Now the reason they were
• 14:15
  Speaker 1: doing this apparently that's where they met. They met in
• 14:18
  Speaker 1: the Metropolitan Museum. It's quite a wonderful touching story, isn't it.
• 14:24
  Speaker 1: Not really, who's this guy going around picking up women
• 14:26
  Speaker 1: in the Met But that's how they met. So they're
• 14:29
  Speaker 1: getting engaged, very touching. They go over to the spot
• 14:35
  Speaker 1: and he gets down on one knee to propose, and
• 14:40
  Speaker 1: before he consaying, the security guard comes over yelling at him,
• 14:43
  Speaker 1: get up. You can't be on your knees. There's a
• 14:45
  Speaker 1: role against that. You're not allowed to do that stand
• 14:47
  Speaker 1: up and he's like screaming at the guy. Well, when
• 14:50
  Speaker 1: they were getting engaged where he was going to propose,
• 14:53
  Speaker 1: he had his friend with the camera doing video, so
• 14:56
  Speaker 1: they caught the security guard on video doing that. It's
• 14:59
  Speaker 1: gone viral now people have checked. The museum won't say much,
• 15:04
  Speaker 1: they will not comment, but people are saying there's no
• 15:09
  Speaker 1: rule that you can't get down on your knee and
• 15:11
  Speaker 1: that the guard was being overzealous. The self appointed Romance
• 15:15
  Speaker 1: police cited a non existent rule that says here about
• 15:20
  Speaker 1: engagements being forbidden at this venerable house of art. He
• 15:24
  Speaker 1: started off by saying proposals aren't allowed. Well, of course
• 15:27
  Speaker 1: they are, and he ordered the person to stop filming. Well,
• 15:31
  Speaker 1: of course you're allowed to film there. So but I'm
• 15:35
  Speaker 1: just one thing because every day you go on Instagram,
• 15:39
  Speaker 1: every day you see somebody proposing. They're in Central Park
• 15:42
  Speaker 1: at the bridge, they're on top of the Empire State Building.
• 15:46
  Speaker 1: Stop please with the engagement videos. Just stop take a picture.
• 15:50
  Speaker 1: We don't need the whole video. It's always in the
• 15:52
  Speaker 1: middle of the park. It's like top of the Empire
• 15:56
  Speaker 1: State Building, it's up on some rooftup. I don't know,
• 16:00
  Speaker 1: I guess it's okay. You know it's very touching. Let's
• 16:05
  Speaker 1: come back fifteen years later, see if this couple is
• 16:07
  Speaker 1: still married. Let's come back five years later, see if
• 16:10
  Speaker 1: they're still smiling so much. Anyway, we'll take some calls next.
