Hour 3: TWA 800 flight crash · Curtis Sliwa & Larry Mendte In The Morning

• 0:00
  Speaker 1: Well. Zurain Mamdani, the mayor of New York City, is
• 0:02
  Speaker 1: making national and international news because of a podcast he
• 0:07
  Speaker 1: was on over the weekend. You'll remember, during the campaign
• 0:10
  Speaker 1: when he was running for mayor, he said he would
• 0:13
  Speaker 1: have Benjamin Nett and Yahoo, Prime Minister of Israel arrested
• 0:18
  Speaker 1: if he ever came to this country because there are
• 0:20
  Speaker 1: charges for crimes against humanity that have been filed by
• 0:24
  Speaker 1: the Hague. Now we don't we're not part of the Hague,
• 0:29
  Speaker 1: and we don't have to obey any of their arrest
• 0:32
  Speaker 1: warrants or orders, so the chances are he would never
• 0:36
  Speaker 1: be arrested in this country. But Mamdani at the time
• 0:39
  Speaker 1: said because of the Hague's arrest warrant that he would
• 0:43
  Speaker 1: arrest him in New York City, and it turned out
• 0:46
  Speaker 1: he never was able to with international and local laws.
• 0:49
  Speaker 1: It just is not at all possible, but he keeps
• 0:53
  Speaker 1: saying it. He was asked in a podcast over the
• 0:55
  Speaker 1: weekend if he would still do that because Benjamin net
• 0:59
  Speaker 1: and Yah, who is going to be here in early
• 1:03
  Speaker 1: September for a General Assembly meeting of the UN, he
• 1:06
  Speaker 1: is scheduled to speak, and so Mamdani doubled down on it.
• 1:12
  Speaker 1: He said, yes, we're looking into it. We're looking into
• 1:14
  Speaker 1: the possibility of it, and of course that made national news.
• 1:18
  Speaker 1: And then he was asked again by the New York
• 1:21
  Speaker 1: Press Corps.
• 1:22
  Speaker 2: When someone is charged with an international criminal court warrant,
• 1:24
  Speaker 2: it's something that should be taken seriously, whether it's Benjamin Netanyaho,
• 1:27
  Speaker 2: or it's Vladimir Putin or whomever else. What I've also
• 1:30
  Speaker 2: made clear is that my administration will follow all applicable
• 1:33
  Speaker 2: local loss.
• 1:34
  Speaker 1: Well, Donald Trump has gone out and said, in no way,
• 1:37
  Speaker 1: shape or form is that going to happen in this country.
• 1:41
  Speaker 1: Benjamin Netnaw who will not be arrested. Benjamin Netna who
• 1:45
  Speaker 1: responded and said that so or In Mamdani should care
• 1:49
  Speaker 1: more about the problems he created in New York City
• 1:52
  Speaker 1: over his policies, and please leave international affairs and me alone.
• 1:58
  Speaker 1: And Rabbi Steinmetz, who has a local, huge congregation, agrees
• 2:04
  Speaker 1: with you, Curtis. He says he's just doing this to
• 2:08
  Speaker 1: gin up his base.
• 2:09
  Speaker 3: He's doing it purely for political theater. He's doing it
• 2:13
  Speaker 3: because he's a demagogue. He knows that by demonizing Israel
• 2:18
  Speaker 3: he can rile up his base and Unfortunately the side
• 2:23
  Speaker 3: effect of that is that Jews in New York City
• 2:28
  Speaker 3: feel the side effects of this anti zionist baiting.
• 2:33
  Speaker 4: You want to respond to the rabbi, well, I'm glad
• 2:35
  Speaker 4: he said anti zionist because that's the language that Johann
• 2:39
  Speaker 4: Mondami uses. Look, he has been very consistent domin. This
• 2:44
  Speaker 4: is what I tell people.
• 2:45
  Speaker 5: What do you do?
• 2:46
  Speaker 4: I said, has he done what he said he would
• 2:48
  Speaker 4: do or tried to do what he said? What are
• 2:50
  Speaker 4: you surprised? He won a Democratic primary against Andrew Como,
• 2:56
  Speaker 4: the former governor, when Angrel Croomo was at forty and
• 3:00
  Speaker 4: Johan Mandami was at one percent. He made that up
• 3:04
  Speaker 4: in three months and then beat him handily, and he
• 3:08
  Speaker 4: ran on that issue. He said, I believe if I
• 3:11
  Speaker 4: am lucky enough to become mayor, because obviously at that
• 3:14
  Speaker 4: time he had to win the Democratic primary, which he did,
• 3:18
  Speaker 4: I would have him. I would tell my police commission
• 3:20
  Speaker 4: to have him arrested if he set foot in New
• 3:23
  Speaker 4: York City.
• 3:24
  Speaker 5: Now.
• 3:24
  Speaker 4: Cuomo, on the other hand, played the opposite in which
• 3:28
  Speaker 4: you had. Alan Dershowitz said, I have Andrew Cuomo on
• 3:32
  Speaker 4: our legal team to defend bb NETA YAO if it
• 3:37
  Speaker 4: ever got to that point in the heg or here
• 3:39
  Speaker 4: in New York City and Cuomo at that time. Yeah, yeah, definitely.
• 3:42
  Speaker 4: Later on he said not so hot on that. So
• 3:47
  Speaker 4: he went on that issue believe it or not amongst
• 3:50
  Speaker 4: Jews who thirty percent voted for him, and discarded that.
• 3:56
  Speaker 4: And now we've seen the recent national poll amongst Jewish folks,
• 4:00
  Speaker 4: so it's not just New York City that more Jewish
• 4:03
  Speaker 4: folks would support Johan Mandami, not for elective office, but
• 4:07
  Speaker 4: support him over bb Nettanyahu bb Netta Yaho's really been
• 4:12
  Speaker 4: sort of in massive decline amongst Jews and Gentiles. In fact,
• 4:16
  Speaker 4: they did a Pierce Morgan show yesterday they should hit
• 4:20
  Speaker 4: today in which you had pro BB and ANTIBB folks
• 4:25
  Speaker 4: on board. This particular issue never came up, but there
• 4:28
  Speaker 4: was a panoply of other issues. So if you are
• 4:31
  Speaker 4: to the left and you mentioned that you want to
• 4:34
  Speaker 4: lock up BB, you want to send him the Devil's Island,
• 4:37
  Speaker 4: you want to exile him in perpetuity. You gotta score
• 4:41
  Speaker 4: points with your base. I get it.
• 4:42
  Speaker 1: But I'll tell you what Conservatives and Republicans are constantly
• 4:46
  Speaker 1: attacked for. You've heard the quote a million times, throwing
• 4:49
  Speaker 1: red meat to the base and really promising things they
• 4:53
  Speaker 1: can never do.
• 4:54
  Speaker 4: That's what this is.
• 4:55
  Speaker 1: Now he is getting criticized by the right, I mean
• 5:00
  Speaker 1: Fox News right now, in all of the conservative publications.
• 5:03
  Speaker 1: He is a star right now because they think going
• 5:07
  Speaker 1: after the Democratic Socialists nationally is a winner for them.
• 5:12
  Speaker 1: And it seems to be working, by the way, from
• 5:14
  Speaker 1: the polls. And it seems to be working because a
• 5:16
  Speaker 1: lot of Democrats and a lot of Democratic celebrities are
• 5:19
  Speaker 1: now saying that the lunatic left wing, the radical left
• 5:24
  Speaker 1: wing of the Democrats is why they're thinking about voting Republican.
• 5:28
  Speaker 1: So it may help him here, but he also seems
• 5:32
  Speaker 1: to help the Republican Party every time he says something
• 5:34
  Speaker 1: like that, oh, there's.
• 5:35
  Speaker 4: No doubt, there's no doubt. But then again, let's go
• 5:38
  Speaker 4: back to the map, the ethnic map, right, so he
• 5:43
  Speaker 4: completely left off little Italy. He left off what I
• 5:46
  Speaker 4: call little Dublin up in Woodlawn right before you hit
• 5:50
  Speaker 4: to Borderwood West, Jesse. He left off other areas. Those
• 5:53
  Speaker 4: areas did not vote for him. He purposefully left them off.
• 5:58
  Speaker 4: That was like an f you to them again, playing
• 6:01
  Speaker 4: to his constituency. This is what I would have suggested
• 6:06
  Speaker 4: for a long time. The Sudan and Mauritania and they
• 6:09
  Speaker 4: still may be involved, believed in slavery, and they would
• 6:13
  Speaker 4: justify her to their Quronic law, predominantly Muslim country in
• 6:17
  Speaker 4: the Sudan and Mauritanian, and they would have slaves. So
• 6:21
  Speaker 4: my younger sister Maria, who Natalie knows very well, was
• 6:25
  Speaker 4: involved in that effort. She went over there, you know,
• 6:28
  Speaker 4: trying to free slaves. Imagine mind they slaves. Yeah. And
• 6:32
  Speaker 4: so when the leader of Sudan came over for that
• 6:35
  Speaker 4: annual assembly gathering at the Permanent Mission of the Sudan,
• 6:40
  Speaker 4: I and three others got arrested because we were going
• 6:43
  Speaker 4: to place some under citizens or US. Obviously we'd never
• 6:46
  Speaker 4: be able to replace some under citizens arrest, but we
• 6:48
  Speaker 4: got arrested. So I believe, you know, he's saying all
• 6:52
  Speaker 4: of this, And when BB arrives, there'll be a number
• 6:56
  Speaker 4: of Jewish groups that are sympathetic to him on the
• 6:58
  Speaker 4: left who will engage in civil disobedience. They we'll get
• 7:02
  Speaker 4: a mass because you know there are many of them,
• 7:04
  Speaker 4: they'll get mass arrests. You know, he'll make his point,
• 7:07
  Speaker 4: he'll continue to score points for his people. He doesn't
• 7:10
  Speaker 4: really care about people watch Fox News Channel or or
• 7:13
  Speaker 4: anybody who's of a conservative evaluation.
• 7:16
  Speaker 1: He should because he is going to be a poster
• 7:20
  Speaker 1: boy for the DSA across the country. That's why FI
• 7:23
  Speaker 1: they don't do it for him. They don't do it
• 7:24
  Speaker 1: for New York City, they do it for across the country.
• 7:27
  Speaker 1: He is the scary man. They put him up there
• 7:30
  Speaker 1: to say, this is what's going to happen to the
• 7:32
  Speaker 1: country if you elect Democrats. And by the way, we
• 7:35
  Speaker 1: never covered the DSA convention and what their platform is.
• 7:40
  Speaker 1: We should spend some time talking about that another time
• 7:42
  Speaker 1: because it's scary.
• 7:43
  Speaker 4: But isn't it interesting that he and Trump have so
• 7:46
  Speaker 4: much in common because the Democrats have Donald Trump as
• 7:50
  Speaker 4: the boogeyman, you know, this is what aggravated them to
• 7:53
  Speaker 4: get him out to vo and both of them operate
• 7:56
  Speaker 4: under similar principles. With Maga, you gotta be maga for
• 8:00
  Speaker 4: the president. Even if you've been a loyal Republican who's
• 8:03
  Speaker 4: not maga, he'll choose Maga over you. Likewise, we've seen
• 8:07
  Speaker 4: with Zoron Mondami, he shook hands with moderate Democrats who
• 8:12
  Speaker 4: endorsed them during the primary process against Andrew Cuomo. Es ballad,
• 8:16
  Speaker 4: who's gonna be in the Dominican Parade. I'll see him
• 8:19
  Speaker 4: on Sunday. You know it's up in the Bronx. He
• 8:22
  Speaker 4: shook his hand. It was a quick pro quoll. Look,
• 8:26
  Speaker 4: I'm bucking voting for Cuomo and supporting him. I'm taking
• 8:30
  Speaker 4: a chance. Here is Zoran supporting you. You know you're
• 8:32
  Speaker 4: not big in our community. Now many people know it.
• 8:35
  Speaker 4: This is the primary, and he said, yeah, I'll endorse you.
• 8:38
  Speaker 4: He went back on that. So basically with zoron Mondami,
• 8:41
  Speaker 4: now you're not DSA, I don't endorse you. So you
• 8:45
  Speaker 4: have the poster child I agree with you for the
• 8:47
  Speaker 4: Republicans is Zora Mondamia New York City DSA. And the
• 8:52
  Speaker 4: poster child for the Democrats is Donald Trump. And obviously
• 8:57
  Speaker 4: hate drives to vote. We know that love people don't
• 9:00
  Speaker 4: out of the love you all. It's like we saw
• 9:03
  Speaker 4: with Biden and Trump in twenty twenty. You had both
• 9:07
  Speaker 4: sides just hate in each other. Now just drove out
• 9:10
  Speaker 4: an unpressurent it.
• 9:11
  Speaker 1: It's an old political adage that, especially in the midterms,
• 9:14
  Speaker 1: it's hate. It's it's usually for the person that's in office.
• 9:17
  Speaker 1: But the DSA and Zura Mamdani have handed the Republicans
• 9:21
  Speaker 1: an issue. They have something else to fear, fear and hate.
• 9:25
  Speaker 1: He said, be careful. This is what's coming, and a
• 9:29
  Speaker 1: lot of people are buying into it because you hear
• 9:31
  Speaker 1: it constantly. By the way, I had never heard that
• 9:34
  Speaker 1: was that was a brilliant analysis. That was a brilliant
• 9:37
  Speaker 1: analysis showing the two of them, and that they're doing
• 9:39
  Speaker 1: the same thing and they're being to use the same
• 9:41
  Speaker 1: way by parties.
• 9:43
  Speaker 4: Haven't I dealt with both of them? Yeah, you have
• 9:46
  Speaker 4: so much Johan, he's a new jack. But with Donald Trump,
• 9:49
  Speaker 4: because as Republican in twenty twenty one, I wasn't a maga.
• 9:53
  Speaker 4: The Republican candidate in twenty twenty five, I wasn't a maga. Obviously,
• 9:57
  Speaker 4: the president ultimately endorsed Cuomo and not me. He said,
• 10:00
  Speaker 4: it hopelessly was a voe for Mandami. Fine, uh, but
• 10:04
  Speaker 4: you can see that they that's why they're attracted.
• 10:07
  Speaker 1: Yeah, what another Yeah, you've you've had to deal with
• 10:10
  Speaker 1: both of them. I get that. That's this was a
• 10:12
  Speaker 1: little deeper, And this was a little deeper. You should
• 10:14
  Speaker 1: write an editorial for The New York Times that was
• 10:16
  Speaker 1: really good.
• 10:17
  Speaker 4: Wad that would be my I've written editorials for other publications.
• 10:22
  Speaker 4: Uh maybe sub stacked see the New York Times may
• 10:25
  Speaker 4: say not not quite our speed, but this might be
• 10:28
  Speaker 4: good for a subst But do it quick.
• 10:30
  Speaker 1: Do it real quick, because somebody else is going to
• 10:32
  Speaker 1: definitely steal that.
• 10:34
  Speaker 4: Now up next, I want to praise the president because
• 10:37
  Speaker 4: remember when I gave testimony in City Council chambers against
• 10:42
  Speaker 4: the continuation of the horse carriage industry, and I pointed
• 10:45
  Speaker 4: out how they had dragged Thomas Jefferson's statue out of
• 10:48
  Speaker 4: that in the summer of twenty twenty, you know, the
• 10:51
  Speaker 4: summer of god chaos in the streets. The President's done
• 10:56
  Speaker 4: a really good thing. I hope you we're going to
• 10:59
  Speaker 4: be inside arity on this, you know, because your friend
• 11:02
  Speaker 4: is also in the Rose Garden. You're gonna like this.
• 11:05
  Speaker 4: Plus a chance to see John Mellencamp next. So happy
• 11:10
  Speaker 4: to see whether our president Donald Trump did in the
• 11:13
  Speaker 4: Rose Garden. I was unaware of this. Maybe you were,
• 11:17
  Speaker 4: Larry because one of your heroes who sometimes you kiss
• 11:23
  Speaker 4: and sometimes you slap down, Benjamin Franklin, is there. You've
• 11:27
  Speaker 4: been great in explaining the impact he had before the revolution,
• 11:32
  Speaker 4: during the revolution, and after the revolution, and in fact,
• 11:35
  Speaker 4: in controlling all media, I had no idea about that.
• 11:38
  Speaker 4: But the President ordered that there be a statue of
• 11:42
  Speaker 4: Benjamin Franklin in the Rose Garden. That's great. One for
• 11:46
  Speaker 4: Alexander Hamilton, that's great. In fact, if you go to Patterson,
• 11:51
  Speaker 4: New Jersey, everything used to be named in honor of
• 11:56
  Speaker 4: Alexander Hamilton, because he's the founder of that city. The falls,
• 12:02
  Speaker 4: the projects, the street. You'd ask somebody in the streets
• 12:05
  Speaker 4: of Patterson, hey, Alexander Hamil in this will say. There's
• 12:08
  Speaker 4: so many of them, you got to clarify to me.
• 12:11
  Speaker 4: But now the President is righting the wrong of the
• 12:15
  Speaker 4: New York City Council. Remember when I went in and
• 12:17
  Speaker 4: I testified to end the barbaric horse carriage industry last week,
• 12:22
  Speaker 4: I commented here and everywhere else that used to be.
• 12:25
  Speaker 4: You'd walk in there and it was this huge statue
• 12:27
  Speaker 4: the father of our democracy, man who wrote the Declaration
• 12:31
  Speaker 4: of Independence, Thomas Jefferson, right there, right behind whoever was
• 12:36
  Speaker 4: gabbling in the discussion in the vote. Most times it
• 12:42
  Speaker 4: was the speaker, sometimes it be somebody else. And then
• 12:44
  Speaker 4: they decided in the summer of George Floyd, drag it out.
• 12:48
  Speaker 4: He's our slave owner. I don't want to know Thomas
• 12:50
  Speaker 4: Jefferson in here. And now they have this beautiful statue,
• 12:55
  Speaker 4: really well done. I saw a picture of it. Wh's
• 12:58
  Speaker 4: Thomas Jefferson sitting with a quill and a draft of
• 13:01
  Speaker 4: the Declaration of Independence. And that's really especially. This two
• 13:07
  Speaker 4: hundred and fiftieth anniversary of ours should be celebrating these men,
• 13:13
  Speaker 4: and I don't again, we have to quantify this. When
• 13:17
  Speaker 4: they signed that Declaration of Independence that Thomas Jefferson wrote,
• 13:22
  Speaker 4: and the King became aware of it, he said, off
• 13:25
  Speaker 4: with their heads. I want them hung. I want them
• 13:28
  Speaker 4: all hung. So it was only one third of the
• 13:31
  Speaker 4: people who supported the revolution in the colonies. There's two
• 13:35
  Speaker 4: third of the people who would have been more than
• 13:37
  Speaker 4: happy to go out and hang them from the nearest tree.
• 13:42
  Speaker 4: And finally he has a place where he'll be fully respected,
• 13:47
  Speaker 4: like all of our founding fathership.
• 13:49
  Speaker 1: And that's perfect to put him with a quill and
• 13:52
  Speaker 1: a piece of paper, because that was his greatest contribution
• 13:56
  Speaker 1: to America. That was it. He was a tremendous writer,
• 13:59
  Speaker 1: and Franklin and Adams knew that they knew it couldn't
• 14:03
  Speaker 1: come from them. It had to come, first of all,
• 14:05
  Speaker 1: from somebody from the South. And they knew he could write.
• 14:09
  Speaker 1: But he never was the type of leader that Adams was,
• 14:12
  Speaker 1: so the leader that Franklin was. Adams was just a jerk.
• 14:16
  Speaker 1: Nobody liked Adams because he was abrasive. Thomas Jefferson was quiet.
• 14:21
  Speaker 1: Everybody kind of liked him. But he was an awful president.
• 14:25
  Speaker 1: I mean, he does not in my opinion, and I
• 14:28
  Speaker 1: think a lot of historians he is not up there
• 14:31
  Speaker 1: at the pinnacle with some of the other Founding fathers.
• 14:34
  Speaker 4: But you're right.
• 14:36
  Speaker 1: His greatest contribution was the writing of the Declaration.
• 14:40
  Speaker 4: I was a kid. You would see his picture and
• 14:42
  Speaker 4: FDR as really Thomas Jefferson, founder of the Democratic Party.
• 14:47
  Speaker 4: Remember it's almost been removed. You know, you'll see FDR,
• 14:51
  Speaker 4: but they don't show Thomas Jefferson simply because of that.
• 14:54
  Speaker 4: But how many of the Founding fathers were slave O No,
• 14:56
  Speaker 4: I get that.
• 14:57
  Speaker 1: He was pretty bad though, But he also wrote the
• 15:00
  Speaker 1: Embargo Act of eighteen oh seven, which was horrible. When
• 15:03
  Speaker 1: he was big, he led to state seceding from the country.
• 15:06
  Speaker 1: I mean, he wasn't a great president. But I'll tell
• 15:09
  Speaker 1: you what. He still goes down in history as a
• 15:11
  Speaker 1: tremendous contributor to the American Revolution. He was the author
• 15:16
  Speaker 1: of the American Revolution. Here's some talkbacks.
• 15:19
  Speaker 6: I'm a teamster trucker and Mondamie is what we call
• 15:22
  Speaker 6: a CB rambo. He's very tough on the airways, but
• 15:27
  Speaker 6: when you get right in his face, he'll make every
• 15:29
  Speaker 6: excuse why he couldn't do what he says he was
• 15:32
  Speaker 6: gonna do.
• 15:32
  Speaker 1: He was gonna kick.
• 15:33
  Speaker 6: Your ass, but now he's got to let it go
• 15:35
  Speaker 6: because he doesn't want to lose his job. He's a coward.
• 15:39
  Speaker 4: He talks tough.
• 15:40
  Speaker 6: He's a paper tiger.
• 15:43
  Speaker 4: I like that TV rambo. Yeah, that's a good representation
• 15:47
  Speaker 4: of him. He definitely talks tough on air, but when
• 15:50
  Speaker 4: you meet him in person, as the President has commented, Wow,
• 15:55
  Speaker 4: he's such a nice guy.
• 15:56
  Speaker 1: Same thing people say about Trump right to your analogy
• 15:59
  Speaker 1: about them being alike, it's the same thing.
• 16:01
  Speaker 4: You're such a good listener. I'm telling you they may
• 16:05
  Speaker 4: be at odds, but they are just like each other.
• 16:08
  Speaker 4: Trump and Johannmandami. And now at eight thirty, let's get
• 16:12
  Speaker 4: to news from Darius. All Right, guys, good morning. Here
• 16:14
  Speaker 4: we go again. After a stormy weekend. A floodwatch is
• 16:18
  Speaker 4: an effect for much of the city, with a good
• 16:20
  Speaker 4: portion of New Jersey as well. Some places could get
• 16:22
  Speaker 4: up to two inches, which means flash flooding is possible.
• 16:26

• 16:52
  Speaker 7: Since July fifteenth, a judge has paused the merger of
• 16:55

  Speaker 7: They're claiming the merger could harm competition. Next News nine
• 17:07
  Speaker 7: o'clock Bulletins at Once. I'm Daria Albinger on seven to
• 17:10
  Speaker 7: ten wor Well.
• 17:12
  Speaker 1: We apologize if you were calling in on the contest
• 17:14
  Speaker 1: where I think a little problem with our phones. We'll
• 17:17
  Speaker 1: try it again a little bit later when we come back. Well,
• 17:22
  Speaker 1: we talked a lot about TWA flight well eight hundredth
• 17:26
  Speaker 1: that many people believe was taken out of the sky.
• 17:29
  Speaker 1: It was in an accident that it crashed. Joe Bartlett
• 17:33
  Speaker 1: has been all over this story for a long time,
• 17:36
  Speaker 1: and we're going to bring him in, the former news
• 17:39
  Speaker 1: director wr and fan Favorite is up next, and our
• 17:44
  Speaker 1: iHeartRadio Music Festival is back, featuring live performances by Benson Boone,
• 17:50
  Speaker 1: The Goo Goo Dolls, Kenny Chesney, Laney Wilson, Snoop Dogg,
• 17:54
  Speaker 1: Weezer and Moore September eighteenth and nineteenth at t Mobile
• 17:58
  Speaker 1: Arena in Las Vegas, two nights, one stage. Now's your
• 18:02
  Speaker 1: chance to buy tickets at axs dot com Get him
• 18:06
  Speaker 1: now before they sell out taxes. It was July seventeenth,
• 18:10
  Speaker 1: nineteen ninety six, when a TWA flight eight hundred leaving
• 18:15
  Speaker 1: JFK Airport at eight nineteen at night bound for Paris
• 18:20
  Speaker 1: blew up just twelve miles away from JFK Airport, and
• 18:25
  Speaker 1: it was deemed an accident. The center fuel tank blew
• 18:30
  Speaker 1: after coming a loose electrical wire and made it blow up.
• 18:34
  Speaker 1: But there's a lot of people that never bought into that,
• 18:36
  Speaker 1: and now we see some because of Judicial Watch, some documents,
• 18:41
  Speaker 1: some federal documents saying that Egypt said that they did it.
• 18:46
  Speaker 1: They were people in Egypt that just said they sent
• 18:48
  Speaker 1: him missile up and hit it. Joe Bartlett has been
• 18:52
  Speaker 1: covering this story for a long time. He is the
• 18:55
  Speaker 1: former news director now and we want to bring him
• 18:57
  Speaker 1: in on this conversation. Joe, what do you think of
• 19:02
  Speaker 1: the newest revelations and what they found with the documents,
• 19:07
  Speaker 1: the federal documents.
• 19:09
  Speaker 5: Well, I think it's interesting. I don't think there's any
• 19:11
  Speaker 5: definite connection. But in my opinion, there is no doubt
• 19:15
  Speaker 5: that this was not a center fuel tank explosion. It
• 19:19
  Speaker 5: absolutely was not. The thing that struck me right away
• 19:24
  Speaker 5: is that the initial investigation was done by the FBI.
• 19:28
  Speaker 5: The FBI came in and took control of this investigation.
• 19:31
  Speaker 5: This is a plane crash, and ordinarily that is an
• 19:35
  Speaker 5: investigation that's done by the National Transportation Safety Board. So
• 19:39
  Speaker 5: you've become suspicious right away, right away, and then the
• 19:44
  Speaker 5: more you hear about it, the more you got to
• 19:46
  Speaker 5: say they're covering something up, And how do you I mean,
• 19:51
  Speaker 5: I can go on for days, Larry talking about this.
• 19:54
  Speaker 5: I know Curtis is on my side here, but it's indisputable.
• 19:59
  Speaker 5: There's hundreds and hundreds of people who testified seeing contrails
• 20:04
  Speaker 5: going from the ground up toward the plane. There's a
• 20:08
  Speaker 5: pilot who saw that missile go up and go right
• 20:13
  Speaker 5: toward the plane and blow it up. That's what happened.
• 20:16
  Speaker 5: Why they don't want to admit that, I don't know.
• 20:20
  Speaker 4: You remember, Joe, because you were covering it day after day.
• 20:23
  Speaker 4: There was Governor Patakia at that time, Al Demado, the Senator,
• 20:28
  Speaker 4: and the head of the FBI from the New York Division.
• 20:33
  Speaker 4: Fourteen months, as you mentioned of that FBI joined terrorism
• 20:37
  Speaker 4: task was they put the whole jet back together. It
• 20:40
  Speaker 4: all fell into the ocean, almost piece by piece. And
• 20:44
  Speaker 4: yet they never satisfied all of us who just never accepted,
• 20:49
  Speaker 4: as you said, that there was an explosion of the
• 20:53
  Speaker 4: center wing fuel tank and there was some spark to
• 20:56
  Speaker 4: a short circuit, even though that had never ever ever
• 21:00
  Speaker 4: been a problem in any other seven forms, and.
• 21:02
  Speaker 5: They couldn't they can't replicate it. They cannot replicate it
• 21:06
  Speaker 5: because there's not enough voltage to create a spark in
• 21:09
  Speaker 5: that center of fuel tank.
• 21:11
  Speaker 4: Yeah.
• 21:11
  Speaker 1: The fact that there are now documents that they have
• 21:14
  Speaker 1: held for this long saying where Egypt claimed responsibility and
• 21:19
  Speaker 1: they said they looked into it and couldn't verify it,
• 21:23
  Speaker 1: brings some new light to this and should should launch
• 21:25
  Speaker 1: a new investigation, I would think.
• 21:27
  Speaker 5: I think, Curtis, you remember Jim Calstrom, he was ahead
• 21:30
  Speaker 5: of the FBI at the time, right, Yes, Yeah, he
• 21:33
  Speaker 5: initially I think there's a quote of him saying that
• 21:36
  Speaker 5: they do suspect terrorism, and then all of a sudden
• 21:39
  Speaker 5: he changed his tune and he almost became like a hostage,
• 21:43
  Speaker 5: like he really didn't believe what he was saying, but
• 21:46
  Speaker 5: he had to say it for some reason. It is
• 21:50
  Speaker 5: a clear case of this plane being shot out of
• 21:53
  Speaker 5: the sky. Why cover it up? That's That's where I'm
• 21:57
  Speaker 5: at now, Why did we cover this up? Was it Egypt?
• 22:01
  Speaker 5: Was it a terror group? I don't know. And this
• 22:04
  Speaker 5: is pre nine to eleven, so we didn't even have
• 22:07
  Speaker 5: the whole security or the fear of terrorism that we
• 22:13
  Speaker 5: that existed after nine eleven.
• 22:15
  Speaker 1: And they correct myself for one second, it's not the
• 22:17
  Speaker 1: country of Egypt or the government of Egypt. It was
• 22:19
  Speaker 1: a militant organization based in Egypt to claim responsibility.
• 22:24
  Speaker 4: Yeah, and that time, at that time Larry and Joe
• 22:27
  Speaker 4: Bartlett was the hotbed of the Muslim Brotherhood hotbed. I
• 22:31
  Speaker 4: mean they were attempting basically to take over the country.
• 22:35
  Speaker 4: But let me flip to another subject. You're down in
• 22:37
  Speaker 4: South Carolina. Now, you've retired, like so many others from
• 22:41
  Speaker 4: our region. In fact, later on Larry's going to talk
• 22:44
  Speaker 4: about how much flight has been taking place outside of
• 22:48
  Speaker 4: this area. But as you play your Botchi games, I'm
• 22:51
  Speaker 4: sure you come across a lot of veterans because South
• 22:53
  Speaker 4: Carolina per person, per capita has more veterans who lived there,
• 22:58
  Speaker 4: men and women who men and women who've retired. What's
• 23:02
  Speaker 4: the general feeling in your state now about this war
• 23:06
  Speaker 4: in Iran?
• 23:08
  Speaker 5: Well, I think you know from what I hear, we're stuck.
• 23:12
  Speaker 5: It's a war of choice. I think it was an
• 23:15
  Speaker 5: unwise choice, and we know whose choice it was. I
• 23:19
  Speaker 5: guess the question is how do you get out of it?
• 23:22
  Speaker 5: And you want to be patriotic, you want to support
• 23:26
  Speaker 5: your country, but you know it's it's a mistake. And
• 23:32
  Speaker 5: I guess the question is how do you get out
• 23:33
  Speaker 5: of it?
• 23:36
  Speaker 1: Yeah, that's a tremendous question. I would imagine that you
• 23:39
  Speaker 1: have a lot of friends that are New Yorkers down there,
• 23:42
  Speaker 1: because I just looked at all of the migration figures
• 23:46
  Speaker 1: for the last few years in South Carolina is the
• 23:50
  Speaker 1: number three location for New Yorkers, from people from Massachusetts,
• 23:55
  Speaker 1: from New Jersey, and even California coming to South Carolina.
• 23:59
  Speaker 1: So are there a lot of transplants living down there
• 24:01
  Speaker 1: with you?
• 24:02
  Speaker 5: Absolutely? Everybody. The first question you asked somebody is where
• 24:06
  Speaker 5: you're from? Really, I haven't, Well, you know, this is
• 24:15
  Speaker 5: kind of a resort community, so there's a lot of visitors.
• 24:19
  Speaker 5: But the most everybody, almost everybody that I've encountered, is
• 24:23
  Speaker 5: from somewhere else.
• 24:24
  Speaker 4: Now, Joe Bartlett. In places like where you've settled, a
• 24:28
  Speaker 4: lot of folks think that Olive Garden is an Italian restaurant,
• 24:35
  Speaker 4: and Olive Garden has this unique policy they've just imposed.
• 24:40
  Speaker 4: We don't do it. When it comes to voting. You
• 24:42
  Speaker 4: got to show a government id with a photo on it.
• 24:46
  Speaker 4: But if you want to take advantage of all the
• 24:48
  Speaker 4: pasta you can eat, I'm sure with the free replenishment
• 24:53
  Speaker 4: of the bread steaks. You now have to have one
• 24:57
  Speaker 4: of their own ID cards with your phone on it,
• 25:00
  Speaker 4: so you don't just lend it to other family members
• 25:03
  Speaker 4: and friends.
• 25:05
  Speaker 5: You got to control cross Curtis one way or the other.
• 25:07
  Speaker 5: I guess, but I will say where I live there
• 25:11
  Speaker 5: are no olive gardens. We do live relatively close to
• 25:15
  Speaker 5: a BUCkies, though, have you ever had Buddies?
• 25:18
  Speaker 8: Jealous? I've been wanting to try a BUCkies.
• 25:21
  Speaker 4: What is BUCkies?
• 25:22
  Speaker 9: Oh my gosh, it's the thing these days.
• 25:25
  Speaker 5: It's a rest stop. It's a humongous rest stop. The
• 25:30
  Speaker 5: claim to fame was that the guys who started it
• 25:32
  Speaker 5: wanted to have clean bathrooms. Promise you that the bathroom
• 25:35
  Speaker 5: you're gonna use is absolutely clean, and they are spick
• 25:38
  Speaker 5: and span. But it's expanded to food, merchandise, clothing. People
• 25:43
  Speaker 5: are buying. They stop at a BUCkies and they're shopping
• 25:46
  Speaker 5: as if they went to Walmart.
• 25:47
  Speaker 9: Yeah, and they're buying merch They're coming home with Bucky's shirt.
• 25:51
  Speaker 9: I'm surprised you haven't heard that because you have a
• 25:53
  Speaker 9: son who goes to school down south. Yeah, and every
• 25:56
  Speaker 9: friend I know who has a kid who has a
• 25:58
  Speaker 9: southern school.
• 26:00
  Speaker 8: BUCkies is it.
• 26:01
  Speaker 1: It's funny because we've driven all around Elon in North
• 26:04
  Speaker 1: Carolina and I haven't seen a BUCkies. I haven't seen
• 26:07
  Speaker 1: one yet. Now I'm gonna be looking for them. Hey,
• 26:09
  Speaker 1: is it all Lindsey Graham coverage down there.
• 26:12
  Speaker 4: All the time?
• 26:13
  Speaker 1: And how do you feel about Darlene is possibly your
• 26:16
  Speaker 1: next senator?
• 26:18
  Speaker 5: I don't know, you know, I was not really a
• 26:22
  Speaker 5: Lindsay Graham fan anymore. He kind of you. He warped
• 26:26
  Speaker 5: like your buddy Trump. So I you know, I'm kind
• 26:28
  Speaker 5: of off im, sad that he that he passed away.
• 26:31
  Speaker 5: Kind of an interesting guy, but I don't know. I
• 26:34
  Speaker 5: think it's gonna be wide open. She's gonna have to
• 26:38
  Speaker 5: run again. And she's not really political too. As I
• 26:42
  Speaker 5: looked into her background and she helped people with disabilities,
• 26:47
  Speaker 5: which is, you know, great, But I don't know that
• 26:50
  Speaker 5: debt qualifies her to be the senator.
• 26:52
  Speaker 4: Now kind of let me take you back to BUCkies
• 26:54
  Speaker 4: because I'm always on a search for a clean bathroom.
• 27:00
  Speaker 4: I can never find it at all those rest locations restaurants.
• 27:04
  Speaker 4: Did they actually deliver on that I've been calling? Joe
• 27:07
  Speaker 4: Bart tell the truth?
• 27:09
  Speaker 5: Absolutely, they are spick and span. They are cleaned almost continuously,
• 27:14
  Speaker 5: and that that's the promise. You stop at the BUCkies,
• 27:16
  Speaker 5: the restroom will be clean. They are.
• 27:19
  Speaker 4: I got franchise it up here, please the turl here.
• 27:26
  Speaker 1: Hey, Joe, I know you have a you have a
• 27:28
  Speaker 1: whole lot of fans listening, and so how are you doing?
• 27:32
  Speaker 1: Are you happy? Do you miss the game at all?
• 27:34
  Speaker 1: Would you like to get back in it sometime?
• 27:37
  Speaker 5: I you know, I enjoy these little conversations we have.
• 27:40
  Speaker 5: What I don't miss is having you get up at
• 27:43
  Speaker 5: three o'clock in the morning and doing this day after
• 27:46
  Speaker 5: day after day. Because right now I live in a
• 27:50
  Speaker 5: beautiful place. The weather is almost always nice, and when
• 27:54
  Speaker 5: I wake up, the whole day is mine. I don't
• 27:56
  Speaker 5: owe a thing to anybody else.
• 28:00
  Speaker 1: It's wonderful.
• 28:00
  Speaker 5: And the Bochi ball game's going well, Bochi were this
• 28:04
  Speaker 5: is in between seasons. It's I'm working on my golf
• 28:07
  Speaker 5: stream right now.
• 28:10
  Speaker 4: Well, do appreciate it. Joe. You're welcome anytime. You're the
• 28:13
  Speaker 4: iconic figure here at woor All right, take care, guys,
• 28:17
  Speaker 4: Thanks a lot, Joe. Up next, Natalie Migliori. She's coming
• 28:21
  Speaker 4: up from the streets to talk about robo taxis. You
• 28:26
  Speaker 4: know my opinion on that, And so now he's seventeen
• 28:32
  Speaker 4: w oars Beat on the Street with Natalie Migliori.
• 28:37
  Speaker 1: You may remember when they tested those way Mo cars
• 28:40
  Speaker 1: here for just a short period of time, But there's
• 28:43
  Speaker 1: none here now except one day they'll be coming for sure.
• 28:49
  Speaker 1: So what are you looking at me? You're looking at
• 28:50
  Speaker 1: me funny for this?
• 28:51
  Speaker 8: Well, I saw one recently.
• 28:53
  Speaker 1: It just says here it's test.
• 28:55
  Speaker 4: The test is over.
• 28:56
  Speaker 8: The test is over.
• 28:59
  Speaker 1: Those pilot permits expired, so it might have been recent,
• 29:02
  Speaker 1: but they're not happening any not anymore at hour. But
• 29:06
  Speaker 1: the question is, Natalie make Leary, let me introduce you properly.
• 29:09
  Speaker 1: Natalie make Leori in her Beat on the Street asks
• 29:13
  Speaker 1: when they come, are New Yorker is going to get
• 29:15
  Speaker 1: inside a driverless car?
• 29:17
  Speaker 10: I'm sure everybody can sort of make their own assumption
• 29:20
  Speaker 10: on that.
• 29:21
  Speaker 4: Look.
• 29:21
  Speaker 10: New York City's always on the move, so can a
• 29:23
  Speaker 10: robotaxi really account for all the obstacles.
• 29:26
  Speaker 8: That come with driving here?
• 29:29
  Speaker 10: One study out of Hunter College suggests self driving taxis
• 29:33
  Speaker 10: made by Waimo may not be.
• 29:36
  Speaker 8: Up to the challenge.
• 29:37
  Speaker 10: So before statistics even come into play, would New Yorkers
• 29:42
  Speaker 10: get into one.
• 29:44
  Speaker 11: Oh no, I will not.
• 29:46
  Speaker 12: Just the unreliability.
• 29:47
  Speaker 5: We never know what can happen, what malfunctions can happen.
• 29:51
  Speaker 8: Ower rather trust a human and a robot for now?
• 29:54
  Speaker 8: When would it change?
• 29:55
  Speaker 4: For you?
• 29:56
  Speaker 13: Test at first, let other people try it, and then
• 29:58
  Speaker 13: in twenty years I'll trust kind of like a cell phone.
• 30:01
  Speaker 13: In the beginning, when it came out, we didn't trust it.
• 30:03
  Speaker 13: Now we do.
• 30:05
  Speaker 12: The technology. You know, we're going to destroy ourselves technology.
• 30:10
  Speaker 12: Arnold Swazhanger was the government. He knew something when he
• 30:13
  Speaker 12: woke terminated because we had it write that way.
• 30:15
  Speaker 8: He leads some secrets he knew was coming.
• 30:21
  Speaker 10: Look, researchers say over the past five years, there have
• 30:24
  Speaker 10: been sixteen uber and Lyft accidents that have resulted in
• 30:27
  Speaker 10: serious injuries or deaths in New York City. That's compared
• 30:32
  Speaker 10: to three accidents involving weimos across the country.
• 30:36
  Speaker 8: But there's a caveat there. The Uber and Lyft.
• 30:39
  Speaker 10: Data looks at one hundred and twenty thousand driving miles,
• 30:43
  Speaker 10: so they've driven one hundred and twenty thousand miles in
• 30:45
  Speaker 10: this study. The data for weimos only accounts for four
• 30:49
  Speaker 10: thousand miles so that's a Researchers argue far fewer miles
• 30:56
  Speaker 10: for these weimos, he's self driving taxis. New Yorkers say,
• 31:00
  Speaker 10: there's nothing quite like driving in the city.
• 31:04
  Speaker 11: You know, I guess if you drive on a highways,
• 31:06
  Speaker 11: it's pretty easy. There's not a lot of sharp turns
• 31:10
  Speaker 11: and abrupt stops. You know, a pedestrian can pop out
• 31:14
  Speaker 11: of anywhere. So you got you gotta gotta be like
• 31:17
  Speaker 11: really aware when you drive into city. I'm not sure
• 31:20
  Speaker 11: if a robocar could do that.
• 31:23
  Speaker 12: A lot of traffic, a lot of people, a lot
• 31:25
  Speaker 12: of motor vehicles, a lot of unpredictability.
• 31:28
  Speaker 13: Get they're getting too ambitious. They're not thinking clearly and
• 31:31
  Speaker 13: not really thinking about what we need access Now.
• 31:35
  Speaker 10: Overall, Weaymo robotaxis are involved in sixty seven percent fewer
• 31:39
  Speaker 10: crashes than for higher cars in the city. But remember
• 31:42
  Speaker 10: there's a dispar there's a discrepancy. There's that one hundred
• 31:45
  Speaker 10: and fourteen thousand more miles that have been driven by
• 31:49
  Speaker 10: New York City for higher vehicles. The study finds these
• 31:52
  Speaker 10: robotaxis could also lead to more congestion in the city
• 31:56
  Speaker 10: if they can't find a spot or circle blocks without
• 31:59
  Speaker 10: pass because they're going to be moving at certain speeds. However,
• 32:02
  Speaker 10: New York Governor Kathy Oakle seems to have rescinded her
• 32:06
  Speaker 10: support for expanding self driving taxis throughout the state. Remember
• 32:10
  Speaker 10: there was this big push for them. She was gonna
• 32:12
  Speaker 10: bring them out of the out of the out of
• 32:15
  Speaker 10: boroughs and even expand them throughout the state. Some say,
• 32:19
  Speaker 10: good call for the economy.
• 32:21
  Speaker 8: There's enough people here. Use people. She just use people.
• 32:24
  Speaker 13: Give us the jobs. Started giving it to a robot.
• 32:27
  Speaker 13: It's it's weird. It's giving your trying to eliminate us.
• 32:30
  Speaker 13: It's given weird. Give it to the people. Let us
• 32:32
  Speaker 13: do it so we can have an income.
• 32:34
  Speaker 4: We're here to serve a purpose.
• 32:36
  Speaker 12: And by having electronics do it for us, what's.
• 32:40
  Speaker 5: The sense of us? Where do we go from here?
• 32:42
  Speaker 4: I see one or two, but I don't seed too
• 32:44
