Latest / Curtis Sliwa & Larry Mendte In The Morning / Hour 2: President Trump's schedule today
Transcript
- 0:00Speaker 1: Well, after ten straight nights of air strikes against Iran
- 0:05Speaker 1: and turmoil in the Middle East, the President has a
- 0:08Speaker 1: very important meeting today. He is going to be meeting
- 0:12Speaker 1: in the Oval Office with the President of Lebanon, and
- 0:16Speaker 1: as you know, they are of focus right now because
- 0:19Speaker 1: Lebanon says it is going to help in beating Hesbalah.
- 0:24Speaker 1: The president when Syria involved in that. Israel of course
- 0:29Speaker 1: is in the is right in the conversation. But the
- 0:33Speaker 1: most important conversation is going to happen today in the
- 0:36Speaker 1: White House, and John Deker is going to be there.
- 0:39Speaker 1: John Decker, wr White House and Washington Correspondent, John, I
- 0:44Speaker 1: know you're going to be in the pool today and
- 0:46Speaker 1: you spend a lot of time gathering your questions. If
- 0:50Speaker 1: you got to answer the first ques, if you got
- 0:52Speaker 1: to ask the first question, what would it be.
- 0:55Speaker 2: Well, you're referring to the President's meeting that will take
- 0:58Speaker 2: place later this morning with the President of Lebanon, And
- 1:01Speaker 2: of course Lebanon is a part of the equation in
- 1:03Speaker 2: terms of ending this conflict between the US and Iran.
- 1:08Speaker 2: And the reason why it's part of the equation is
- 1:10Speaker 2: because Iran has insisted that it's part of the equation.
- 1:13Speaker 2: They want peace. They don't want his Balla, which is
- 1:16Speaker 2: their proxy, to be attacked by Israel going forward. And
- 1:20Speaker 2: I think that you know, for the President who will
- 1:22Speaker 2: be there with his Lebanese counterpart. To me, it's pretty
- 1:26Speaker 2: important to find out whether Lebanon is on board the
- 1:29Speaker 2: President's plans for Iran and for opening up the straight
- 1:34Speaker 2: up formood. They are a part of the equation, and
- 1:37Speaker 2: to me, that's one of the questions that I'd ask
- 1:40Speaker 2: the President today whether he has the full support of
- 1:44Speaker 2: the Lebanese president in terms of his goals to denuclearize Iran.
- 1:49Speaker 3: John deek Care. I know that the Secretary of Will
- 1:52Speaker 3: Pete Heikschatz will be at a Senate hearing today and
- 1:54Speaker 3: there'll be lots of questions of him. But we were
- 1:57Speaker 3: told early on in this conflict, oh, our military might
- 2:02Speaker 3: has depleted their missile ability, the drone ability. I'm telling you,
- 2:07Speaker 3: where are the Iranians getting these missiles and drones from?
- 2:10Speaker 3: Because they're hitting all of our allies, even in Jordan.
- 2:13Speaker 3: They hit Akabah, which is right next to a lot
- 2:18Speaker 3: in Israel, and Charmel Shaken, Egypt, where I've been to
- 2:21Speaker 3: all three right on the Red Sea. I mean, every
- 2:24Speaker 3: time we hit them, they just fire off missiles and
- 2:29Speaker 3: drones at everyone that they perceive to be housing any
- 2:33Speaker 3: US military personnel. Has anybody given an answer of where
- 2:37Speaker 3: this trash of weapons is coming from?
- 2:42Speaker 2: Yeah, that's a really great question, Curtis, and I'm sure
- 2:44Speaker 2: that's going to come up in today's hearing. As you
- 2:47Speaker 2: point out, the President has said that Iran has been
- 2:51Speaker 2: degraded in terms of its abilities. I'm sure that's true.
- 2:55Speaker 2: But at the same time, they have not been depleted
- 2:58Speaker 2: of all other missiles all of their drones, and the
- 3:01Speaker 2: drones in particular have really posed a problem for the US.
- 3:06Speaker 2: It's relatively inexpensive technology. We're talking about fifty thousand dollars
- 3:12Speaker 2: per drone as opposed to over a million dollars for
- 3:15Speaker 2: a Patriot missile, so, you know, or any type of
- 3:19Speaker 2: cruise missile that you're talking about. So for that reason,
- 3:23Speaker 2: you know, Iran can go on, you know, fighting the
- 3:27Speaker 2: United States military with this lesser technology that is also effective.
- 3:35Speaker 2: We saw how effective it was, you know, in terms
- 3:39Speaker 2: of what Iran wants to do as it relates to
- 3:44Speaker 2: imposing threats on the American military. Our servicemen and women.
- 3:48Speaker 2: We saw what happened over the weekend in both Jordan
- 3:51Speaker 2: and also in Iraq, and that is likely to continue
- 3:54Speaker 2: for the foreseeable future.
- 3:56Speaker 1: So we had a attack on the federal building yesterday.
- 4:01Speaker 1: It's all over the news today. We had a madman
- 4:04Speaker 1: that set fire on the on the ground outside the
- 4:08Speaker 1: federal building. He was heavily armed, and luckily he was
- 4:12Speaker 1: he was apprehended. Tom Homan I saw yesterday, came out
- 4:16Speaker 1: and started to talk about it and got really emotional
- 4:20Speaker 1: and went back inside. But he blamed all of the
- 4:23Speaker 1: rhetoric and the attack on ice officers for all of this.
- 4:28Speaker 4: John.
- 4:28Speaker 1: I assume that's going to come up today, that the
- 4:31Speaker 1: President's going to be asked about it. But there's not
- 4:33Speaker 1: much I would think that he can do.
- 4:37Speaker 2: Well, you know, if you have a crazy person, there's
- 4:39Speaker 2: not much he can do in terms of stopping someone
- 4:41Speaker 2: that has the ability the desire to cause harm. I
- 4:46Speaker 2: think that, you know, I'm talking about the rhetoric.
- 4:48Speaker 5: I'm talking about the rhetoric which he is.
- 4:50Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, I mean, look, you know, I think that
- 4:54Speaker 2: the rhetoric has gotten out of hand, particularly on the
- 4:57Speaker 2: far left. You know, in terms of the things that
- 4:59Speaker 2: they're saying about ICE officers. They claim that, you know,
- 5:03Speaker 2: they just think this broad brush as it relates to ICE.
- 5:06Speaker 2: Not every member of the Immigration and Customs Enforcement Agency
- 5:12Speaker 2: is a bad person or a bad actor. You know,
- 5:15Speaker 2: they're there trying to make certain that their mission is
- 5:19Speaker 2: carried out. And you know, yesterday they were simply doing
- 5:24Speaker 2: their job inside a federal building in Manhattan when this
- 5:29Speaker 2: you know, attack took place. I was there when Tom
- 5:32Speaker 2: Holman came out and addressed reporters. I asked a few
- 5:35Speaker 2: questions of mister Homan, and you're right, you know, I
- 5:37Speaker 2: think that yesterday, in particular, mister Homan, who had first
- 5:40Speaker 2: done an interview on Fox News and then spoke to
- 5:44Speaker 2: reporters that gathered around after his Fox News live shot,
- 5:48Speaker 2: we saw that you know, that attack or attempted attack
- 5:51Speaker 2: on that federal building has really impacted him, as well
- 5:55Speaker 2: as others at the Department of Homeland Security, in particular, you.
- 5:58Speaker 3: Know, on John Daga, you and the attention and recognition
- 6:03Speaker 3: that you're due because it was of your intrepid reporting
- 6:07Speaker 3: and questioning that the Administration Secret Service told the President, hey,
- 6:13Speaker 3: swap out the gift from Qatar that is Air Force
- 6:16Speaker 3: one go back to O reliable Air Force one, because
- 6:20Speaker 3: now that we're re engaged in Iran, that is not
- 6:23Speaker 3: a safe airline to be taking you and your cabinet
- 6:27Speaker 3: and everyone else who accompanies you. Uh, you're really the
- 6:30Speaker 3: one that triggered that.
- 6:31Speaker 2: Correct, I don't know what you're talking about. I don't
- 6:35Speaker 2: want to be subpoenat Curtis.
- 6:46Speaker 5: Well, it was a little hint from you. They got them,
- 6:49Speaker 5: got them to rethink.
- 6:50Speaker 6: They're recalibrating, that's a better word, recalibrate thinking about the
- 6:55Speaker 6: safety of the President, the cabinet and everyone who accompanies
- 6:59Speaker 6: the president on the Air Force One.
- 7:01Speaker 5: I don't know. You're a hero. You're a hero. You
- 7:04Speaker 5: have potentially save lives. There you go.
- 7:08Speaker 2: Now, that's right. We got a statement yesterday from the
- 7:10Speaker 2: White House Press Secretary, Caroline Leavitt, which indicated that in
- 7:13Speaker 2: the fall, just a few months from now, this new
- 7:16Speaker 2: Air Force one will head into the shop, so to speak,
- 7:20Speaker 2: for refurbishment to make it more secure. The President acknowledged
- 7:24Speaker 2: that it is not as secure as the original Air
- 7:27Speaker 2: Force One. And so you know, the President will be
- 7:30Speaker 2: taking a trip tomorrow to Georgia. I would imagine it
- 7:34Speaker 2: will be on the new Air Force one, but that
- 7:36Speaker 2: has a limited life in terms of before it goes
- 7:42Speaker 2: into the shop to add these new secure bells and whistles,
- 7:47Speaker 2: so it is just as secure as its predecessor, the
- 7:50Speaker 2: old Air Force one, which I've flown on so many times,
- 7:54Speaker 2: countless times over the years. So the President says it
- 7:58Speaker 2: will be in the shop for a month or so,
- 8:01Speaker 2: I think it's going to take a lot longer than that.
- 8:03Speaker 2: You know, when you think about building a new Air
- 8:05Speaker 2: Force one from the ground up, it's years in the making.
- 8:09Speaker 2: To me, it seems like to make it as secure
- 8:12Speaker 2: as the Air Force one that it replaced, it's going
- 8:15Speaker 2: to take a lot longer than just one full month
- 8:18Speaker 2: to do all the things that are necessary to make
- 8:20Speaker 2: it secure for the President the commander in chief to
- 8:22Speaker 2: fly anywhere, whether it's here in the US or anywhere
- 8:25Speaker 2: in the world.
- 8:26Speaker 1: I'm going to give you some credit here, John, because
- 8:28Speaker 1: a couple of months ago we brought up the White
- 8:30Speaker 1: House Correspondence Center and whether they really are going to
- 8:33Speaker 1: have another one, and you said with certainty, yes, there's
- 8:36Speaker 1: going to be another one. And now it's been announced
- 8:38Speaker 1: it's going to happen. Are you hearing any of the
- 8:41Speaker 1: details about it. I understand. It's funny because the report
- 8:46Speaker 1: said it's going to be a smaller venue, it's going
- 8:48Speaker 1: to be a smaller crowd, it's going to be more secure,
- 8:50Speaker 1: but then it says one thousand people are going to
- 8:52Speaker 1: be there.
- 8:54Speaker 2: Well, one thousand versus twenty five hundred, Okay, So what
- 8:57Speaker 2: that has meant is that for news organizations that you know,
- 9:00Speaker 2: I purchased a lot of tables for the original White
- 9:03Speaker 2: House Correspondence Center, there are being offered up the ability
- 9:07Speaker 2: to purchase, not purchased, or being given far fewer tickets.
- 9:11Speaker 2: So as it relates to the news organization that I
- 9:15Speaker 2: work for. Originally we had two tables, that's twenty seats.
- 9:19Speaker 2: Now only four people will attend for my news organization,
- 9:23Speaker 2: so it will be smaller in size. It's taking place
- 9:25Speaker 2: at the Waldorf, which is the former Trump International Hotel,
- 9:28Speaker 2: the former old Post Office. It will be on Friday night,
- 9:33Speaker 2: and it will be a low key affair compared to
- 9:38Speaker 2: what normally takes place in late April at the Correspondence
- 9:43Speaker 2: Center every year.
- 9:44Speaker 3: One final question, John Decker, the reflection pool boy that
- 9:49Speaker 3: has been an ongoing issue now.
- 9:51Speaker 5: The fireworks are over.
- 9:53Speaker 3: Obviously, the continuation of the two hundred and fiftieth anniversary continues.
- 9:58Speaker 3: But where are we do we reflection pool in terms
- 10:01Speaker 3: of its maintenance, its care, and more importantly, the people
- 10:04Speaker 3: that it was suggested that Janine Piro, US attorney for
- 10:08Speaker 3: the Capitol, is going to prosecute.
- 10:11Speaker 2: Well, she says that that case is proceeding as planned
- 10:15Speaker 2: against one individual in particular. But you know, I don't
- 10:19Speaker 2: know what kind of case they have against him, whether
- 10:21Speaker 2: there's any kind of surveillance video that they can use
- 10:24Speaker 2: to show that this person was a bad actor, you know,
- 10:28Speaker 2: that was up to no good in terms of what
- 10:31Speaker 2: he says was an innocent putting his hand into the
- 10:35Speaker 2: reflecting pool and seeing you know, what kind of work
- 10:39Speaker 2: was done there. But as it relates to, you know,
- 10:42Speaker 2: visually seeing the reflecting pool and getting it to the
- 10:45Speaker 2: place where you know, I think the President wants it
- 10:48Speaker 2: to be. I don't think we're there yet. You know,
- 10:49Speaker 2: there's still work that's going on. The reflecting pool has
- 10:52Speaker 2: been drained. That happened after the celebration for our two
- 10:56Speaker 2: hundred and fiftieth birthday, So the work continues, and as
- 11:00Speaker 2: you may recall, The original works for the reflecting pool
- 11:03Speaker 2: cost approximately fifteen million dollars, and now the costs are
- 11:07Speaker 2: rising as it relates to making these repairs, to making
- 11:11Speaker 2: it the way the President wants it to be.
- 11:13Speaker 1: John Decker, woor White House and Washington Correspondent, host of
- 11:17Speaker 1: the podcast The White House Briefing Room with John Decker
- 11:20Speaker 1: that can be found on the iHeartRadio app. Talk to
- 11:23Speaker 1: you again Thursday, John, Thank.
- 11:24Speaker 2: You, Thank you, bye bye.
- 11:27Speaker 1: Well is coffee good for you? That depends on how
- 11:31Speaker 1: much you drink. We'll talk about that. Plus, the executive
- 11:35Speaker 1: director of the White House Olympics Committee, Andrew Giuliani, joins
- 11:39Speaker 1: us at seven thirty five, and we have a chance
- 11:42Speaker 1: to see John Mellencamp at eight twenty five. Also, eating
- 11:46Speaker 1: is one of the most basic things we do, but
- 11:49Speaker 1: behind every meal, your body is carrying out thousands of
- 11:53Speaker 1: invisible calculations. Usually you never think about it until something
- 11:58Speaker 1: goes wrong. Check out the podcast All about It search
- 12:02Speaker 1: for Eating Interrupted on the free iHeartRadio app.
- 12:08Speaker 5: If you were able.
- 12:08Speaker 1: To see Natalie and Curtis and myself in the studio,
- 12:12Speaker 1: you'd see we pound down a whole lot of coffee.
- 12:16Speaker 1: And now the good news for us and for you
- 12:19Speaker 1: if you were in the same boat and you have
- 12:21Speaker 1: a job or you just have a lifestyle where you
- 12:23Speaker 1: drink a lot of coffee. The American Heart Association now
- 12:27Speaker 1: says up to five eight ounce cups of coffee actually
- 12:33Speaker 1: are good for you. If you drink that much coffee
- 12:36Speaker 1: in a day, it has positive benefits. It's linked to
- 12:40Speaker 1: lower risk of stroke, lower risk of heart failure, and
- 12:44Speaker 1: lower risk of type two diabetes. That's the good news.
- 12:49Speaker 1: By the way, that's completely different if you're pregnant. You
- 12:51Speaker 1: have to be able to drink half of that. And
- 12:53Speaker 1: they say black coffee is better without putting the cream
- 12:57Speaker 1: and the sugar in it.
- 12:58Speaker 5: But here's the bad news.
- 13:01Speaker 1: If you drink more than five cups, five eight ounce cups,
- 13:06Speaker 1: it's a hard hazard. It disrupts sleep, which can cause
- 13:09Speaker 1: other problems. It causes mental strain, and it causes digestive distress. So,
- 13:15Speaker 1: as Curtis likes to say, the sweet spot is five
- 13:19Speaker 1: cups a day, you're supposed to cut it off after that.
- 13:22Speaker 5: How many do you think you drink?
- 13:24Speaker 3: Ah more than five? But I haven't been drinking a
- 13:27Speaker 3: lot lately. When I first began to consummate our relationship
- 13:33Speaker 3: Larry with the Honey Bunch. I drank any inordinate number
- 13:36Speaker 3: of coffees here, so I didn't measure them. But I
- 13:41Speaker 3: know you, Natalie, you have some perception that I thought
- 13:45Speaker 3: was so far out there. Now. I thought all your
- 13:48Speaker 3: furniture was up and rearranged in the wrong room.
- 13:52Speaker 5: All right.
- 13:52Speaker 7: So I heard this last year and I've actually tried
- 13:55Speaker 7: it and it works. It's something that called a coffee nap,
- 13:59Speaker 7: so I've found on the Sleep Foundation dot org website.
- 14:02Speaker 5: It was medically, you know, reviewed. So basically what you
- 14:06Speaker 5: do is you.
- 14:08Speaker 7: Drink your cup of coffee and you immediately take your
- 14:11Speaker 7: short nap because they say a nap fifteen to twenty
- 14:14Speaker 7: minutes is all you need to regenerate, you know, rejuvenate yourself,
- 14:17Speaker 7: because too long you get into rem sleep and you're
- 14:19Speaker 7: more tired. So a nap lasting fifteen to twenty minutes
- 14:24Speaker 7: should give you just enough time for the caffeine to
- 14:27Speaker 7: then kick in wake you up and you feel really alert.
- 14:31Speaker 1: It's just not doesn't work for me, and I think
- 14:33Speaker 1: most of the people out there have tried this. You
- 14:36Speaker 1: have a cup of coffee and then you realize, oh no,
- 14:38Speaker 1: I have to get to sleep and then you can't sleep.
- 14:41Speaker 3: What about that great movie Sleepless in Seattle, which, per
- 14:44Speaker 3: capit of properson has more coffee shops than anywhere. So
- 14:49Speaker 3: if you have caffeinated coffee, you're going to be sleepless
- 14:52Speaker 3: in Seiatle and everywhere else? Absolutely where did you find
- 14:55Speaker 3: that moronic studied?
- 14:56Speaker 7: Now a sleep found the industry?
- 14:59Speaker 2: Org?
- 15:00Speaker 3: No, the sleep that put out by one valadeze you
- 15:03Speaker 3: one vowad as you useduld do those coffee commercials.
- 15:05Speaker 7: Point is is that right when you're ready to take
- 15:08Speaker 7: your nap, you're tired, you drink the coffee and it's
- 15:12Speaker 7: going to take at least fifteen to twenty minutes to
- 15:15Speaker 7: kick in.
- 15:15Speaker 5: Horrible advice what a still not Ye doesn't work. I've
- 15:19Speaker 5: tried it. It does not work. As a matter they
- 15:22Speaker 5: lay there, goes why was I an idiot? Why did
- 15:24Speaker 5: I drink this coffee? Why can't I get this lady?
- 15:27Speaker 7: I've been doing it for a year now, and I
- 15:29Speaker 7: like it.
- 15:29Speaker 3: You know, I wish they'd make up their mind. One
- 15:32Speaker 3: year it's just study coffee's not good for you. Then
- 15:35Speaker 3: the next year, oh now it's five cups shaddown. They
- 15:38Speaker 3: keep us on a roller coaster. It depends on what
- 15:40Speaker 3: industry does this study. Let's get some talk back.
- 15:43Speaker 5: I want one Valadesh. Where did one Valadez go?
- 15:46Speaker 8: I have to be honest with you when these politicians,
- 15:49Speaker 8: particularly the Democrats, put on fake accents, if I were
- 15:55Speaker 8: the people that were being addressed, I would be highly
- 15:57Speaker 8: insulted that they're trying to talk like me.
- 16:01Speaker 3: It's really not a compliment.
- 16:02Speaker 8: It's like mockery, absolutely insane.
- 16:06Speaker 1: I agree with you. The people in the building are
- 16:08Speaker 1: never going to be upset. They're the true believers. They're
- 16:11Speaker 1: there to support that person. It doesn't matter what they
- 16:13Speaker 1: do or what they say. It's the people that then
- 16:16Speaker 1: see it on social media or on television or in
- 16:20Speaker 1: the media.
- 16:21Speaker 5: That go, what what is she doing? You're right, it
- 16:24Speaker 5: can be insulting.
- 16:25Speaker 9: Regarding the tw waflight, Let's not forget what the media
- 16:29Speaker 9: did to Pierre Souinger when he questioned what happened, and
- 16:32Speaker 9: I believe he even said that he saw something going
- 16:35Speaker 9: from the land up in the air towards that flight
- 16:38Speaker 9: before it bursts out into flames. They made his reputation
- 16:41Speaker 9: dirt and he was never regarded by the media again.
- 16:45Speaker 3: Correct and now the Judicial Watch has done a complete investigation.
- 16:49Speaker 3: They have their documentary on YouTube. I suggest you'll watch it.
- 16:53Speaker 3: In fact, that's why Joe Bartlett is returning to US
- 16:57Speaker 3: at eight thirty six, because he like I on it
- 17:00Speaker 3: and didn't believe it from day one.
- 17:03Speaker 1: Yeah, let's get to dary Albeger with the seven thirty

- 19:39Speaker 1: A blamed plastic man who has to be very proud
- 19:42Speaker 1: today of a job well done. Andrew Giuliani is the
- 19:46Speaker 1: executive director for the White House Task Force on the
- 19:49Speaker 1: FIFA World Cup twenty twenty six. And Andrew, congratulations, nothing
- 19:55Speaker 1: but positive reviews, record setting attendance, record setting TV ratings,
- 20:02Speaker 1: the money that was brought into the country billions of dollars.
- 20:06Speaker 1: But maybe, Andrew, the most important thing, and we all
- 20:09Speaker 1: saw it on social media, are the amazing positive reviews
- 20:14Speaker 1: of not just the World Cup, but of America. People
- 20:17Speaker 1: saying this isn't what I was told. It's not as
- 20:19Speaker 1: bad as I would say. They go home now and
- 20:22Speaker 1: they tell their families and friends how great this country is.
- 20:26Speaker 1: So job well done.
- 20:29Speaker 4: Well thank you, and you know, really it was amazing
- 20:31Speaker 4: to see the world's love affair with the United States
- 20:34Speaker 4: of America. And the beautiful thing was this can happen
- 20:37Speaker 4: in a vacuum. Obviously we got to do this. We
- 20:40Speaker 4: got to put on this World Cup over our two
- 20:42Speaker 4: hundred and fiftieth birthday. It's such a special moment. And
- 20:46Speaker 4: I remember being a junior staffer back in twenty eighteen
- 20:49Speaker 4: in the White House working on the big working to
- 20:52Speaker 4: land this World Cup, and understanding today we wouldn't just
- 20:56Speaker 4: have the largest soccer term, the largest sporting event in
- 20:59Speaker 4: our country's history, but we'd have it over our two
- 21:03Speaker 4: hundred and fiftieth birthday. And what that actually meant, the venues,
- 21:06Speaker 4: what it could mean for the rest of the world.
- 21:08Speaker 4: You know, even with that big vision, even the vision
- 21:11Speaker 4: the President Trump after this, I think he exceeded all expectations,
- 21:15Speaker 4: went off incredibly well. I told our team on the
- 21:17Speaker 4: White House Task Force yesterday. You know, Spain may have
- 21:20Speaker 4: been named the World Cup champions, but even they let
- 21:24Speaker 4: in the goal. Uh and the White House, dask Force
- 21:27Speaker 4: federal government did not let in one goal this entire tournament.
- 21:31Speaker 4: It really really was an incredible, incredible month and a half.
- 21:35Speaker 3: Andrewquit a second.
- 21:40Speaker 4: Everybody compliments except Curtis.
- 21:42Speaker 5: I can't wait.
- 21:43Speaker 4: I love you, you know I love you.
- 21:45Speaker 3: Andew I remember when you were a junior Shane Joe's
- 21:49Speaker 3: in Montvale and you were playing our game, American smash
- 21:53Speaker 3: mouths football. I don't ever remember you playing saker. What
- 21:57Speaker 3: when did this socker fever in golf?
- 22:00Speaker 4: Oh? No, you guys need to go. And I guess
- 22:02Speaker 4: Curtis is not doing his research anymore. Curtis, I remember
- 22:05Speaker 4: you doing a lot of research here before you do
- 22:07Speaker 4: your hits, but I don't know what ended up happening.
- 22:09Speaker 4: You got to go back a few short weeks ago
- 22:11Speaker 4: when I was interviewed by Klayt, Travis and buck Sexton. Now,
- 22:15Speaker 4: unlike Curtis Leela, buck Sexton likes to do his research,
- 22:19Speaker 4: and what buck Sexton dug back to was the seventh
- 22:22Speaker 4: grade moment of Andrew Giuliani playing goaltender when they used
- 22:26Speaker 4: to call me the Great Wall of Giuliani, it's Saint
- 22:29Speaker 4: David's on the upper west side. You got to talk
- 22:31Speaker 4: to that side of him. Now Now I will say,
- 22:34Speaker 4: you know, I'm a big giant fan. You know I
- 22:36Speaker 4: still end up American football is my game over here.
- 22:39Speaker 4: But Curtis, we cannot deny just the global reach of
- 22:43Speaker 4: soccer when you look at the when you look at
- 22:45Speaker 4: the super Bowl, about one hundred and seventy million people
- 22:48Speaker 4: around the world watch the Super Bowl, one hundred and
- 22:50Speaker 4: thirty million or so from the United States and about
- 22:53Speaker 4: forty million internationally. This World Cup final is projected to
- 22:57Speaker 4: have drawn over two billion people. Are really really is
- 23:00Speaker 4: absolutely amazing.
- 23:02Speaker 3: Can I extrapolate from this, Andrew Giuliani, the depressident, after
- 23:06Speaker 3: your successful tour of bringing together this international community to
- 23:13Speaker 3: our home, We'll say, well, the second most followed and
- 23:17Speaker 3: watched sport in the world is cricket. So Andrew, I
- 23:21Speaker 3: want you to be in charge of a World Cricket
- 23:24Speaker 3: Championship in America.
- 23:27Speaker 5: Would you be up for that task?
- 23:29Speaker 4: Andrew, Well, I'll say, if you write me a recommendation
- 23:33Speaker 4: letter to the president, I don't see how I could
- 23:36Speaker 4: get that job, be perfectly honest.
- 23:39Speaker 1: You know, let's take the cricket out of that question.
- 23:41Speaker 1: It's a it's a great question because you've had a
- 23:44Speaker 1: huge success with this, an enormous success, an unprecedented success.
- 23:49Speaker 1: No matter what Curtis says, uh so what is next
- 23:52Speaker 1: for you?
- 23:54Speaker 5: Have you thought about it yet?
- 23:56Speaker 4: I guess you got to ask my wife, right My
- 23:58Speaker 4: wife said, we got to go find a bet, can
- 24:00Speaker 4: get a drink and we'll talk about it. But you know, look,
- 24:03Speaker 4: I think more than anything, and I spoke with the
- 24:05Speaker 4: President about this on Saturday here in terms of what
- 24:08Speaker 4: it looks like it'll work work, My hard is to
- 24:11Speaker 4: make sure that we can keep the house this midterm
- 24:16Speaker 4: cycle here and see what happens after the midterms. You know,
- 24:18Speaker 4: there's always a lot of shuffling around for positions there.
- 24:22Speaker 4: But for me, very very happy to have landed this
- 24:26Speaker 4: mega event over here. Time to just kind of finish
- 24:28Speaker 4: up what we're doing. And really, here's the thing that's
- 24:31Speaker 4: so amazing, And it's twenty what Curtis said, but it
- 24:33Speaker 4: really is true. This is really a golden age not
- 24:36Speaker 4: just of America, but a golden age of sports in America.
- 24:39Speaker 4: With the Olympics coming up in twenty twenty eight, potentially
- 24:42Speaker 4: a Women's World Cup in twenty thirty one, the Winter
- 24:45Speaker 4: Games coming up in twenty thirty four. I do think
- 24:47Speaker 4: that cricket is actually one of those things on the radar.
- 24:51Speaker 4: I think rugby is another one of those things on
- 24:54Speaker 4: the radar which gets a great global reach. So we
- 24:56Speaker 4: really have this incredible run. And I have to tell
- 24:59Speaker 4: you talking to FIFA about this, and look at the
- 25:02Speaker 4: economic numbers here for the United States. We originally were
- 25:05Speaker 4: projecting about a thirty billion dollar cash injection. That number
- 25:09Speaker 4: per Bank of America actually looks like it's closer to
- 25:12Speaker 4: fifty billion dollars, not to mention the legacy items. Speaking
- 25:16Speaker 4: of Bob Kraft a few days ago, and he and
- 25:18Speaker 4: the Patriot Organization are already talking about going to Scotland
- 25:22Speaker 4: for an NFL regular season game and vice versa, having
- 25:26Speaker 4: Scottish teams come over to New England and play. You're
- 25:29Speaker 4: going to continue to see more and more and more
- 25:32Speaker 4: of that. So we really really are and this golden
- 25:35Speaker 4: age of sport in America.
- 25:36Speaker 1: And all that's great. Just a clarification though, you said
- 25:39Speaker 1: potentially getting to twenty thirty one Women's World Cup. I
- 25:44Speaker 1: thought that had been confirmed.
- 25:46Speaker 4: So it had been told to the President of the
- 25:48Speaker 4: United States that was in the Oval Office when Johnny
- 25:50Speaker 4: and Fantino told them, we are going to give it
- 25:52Speaker 4: to you. I think the only thing that probably stands
- 25:55Speaker 4: in the way at this point right now is just
- 25:58Speaker 4: clarifying and codifying that it doesn't violate the policy of
- 26:01Speaker 4: the United States of America in that only women can
- 26:05Speaker 4: play in women's sports. If that gets codified, then I
- 26:08Speaker 4: think we would be absolutely happy to welcome the Women's
- 26:11Speaker 4: World Cup in twenty thirty one. I can tell you,
- 26:14Speaker 4: as the father of a daughter, Curtis knows my grace
- 26:16Speaker 4: very well, it would be an incredible honor to be
- 26:20Speaker 4: able to land this for the country.
- 26:22Speaker 3: Moving forward now, Andrew, you know me, I like to
- 26:25Speaker 3: roam the city in the wee hours in the morning.
- 26:27Speaker 3: I'm nocturnal. So I came to Times Square this morning
- 26:31Speaker 3: on the way up to our Ihearts studios. He a
- 26:34Speaker 3: wor seven ten and some of these Argentine fans don't
- 26:40Speaker 3: seem to want to go back now, and they're telling
- 26:43Speaker 3: me they want to know where they can score a
- 26:45Speaker 3: shot a leg and they can get some weed to smoke.
- 26:49Speaker 3: So your job is not finished. You need to really
- 26:52Speaker 3: contact your friend DHS Chairman Mullen and start issuing retainers
- 26:59Speaker 3: because only here on tours visas, and would you get
- 27:01Speaker 3: them the hell out of here because I want my
- 27:03Speaker 3: city back, Curtis.
- 27:06Speaker 4: You know I love your baby. I will say here's
- 27:11Speaker 4: here's the beautiful thing over here. And look, well, I'm
- 27:13Speaker 4: not going to talk about the nocturnal things that happened
- 27:15Speaker 4: at Times Square at three am, four am and all
- 27:20Speaker 4: that stuff. I guess we can all say all the
- 27:21Speaker 4: city was great in the nineties when maybe some of
- 27:24Speaker 4: those illicit things did not happen overnight in Times Square
- 27:28Speaker 4: in New York. It is one of the great things.
- 27:30Speaker 4: One of the things that we did was get I mean,
- 27:33Speaker 4: and the numbers are really staggering. One B two week
- 27:37Speaker 4: times for Argentina for visitors visas went down from three
- 27:41Speaker 4: hundred days to less than a week by the time
- 27:43Speaker 4: we kicked off the tournaments. Why we were able to
- 27:45Speaker 4: get so many people here. For Brazil it was seven
- 27:47Speaker 4: hundred days for a B one B two visa appointment.
- 27:50Speaker 4: We got it down to less than a month. For
- 27:52Speaker 4: the nineteen s the countries that qualified for the World Cup.
- 27:56Speaker 4: Think Germany, think Spain who won it obviously, the U case, Scotland,
- 28:00Speaker 4: et cetera. The nineteen s the country are qualify. In
- 28:03Speaker 4: the first half of this fiscal year, we processed over
- 28:06Speaker 4: five million ESTA applications. That was the back office work
- 28:11Speaker 4: that happened to create the magic this summer that really
- 28:14Speaker 4: really was incredible. And Curtis, I will tell you I
- 28:17Speaker 4: know my good friend Secretary Mullen very well. If anybody
- 28:20Speaker 4: says past ninety days, something tells me he's gonna be working.
- 28:24Speaker 3: Come home, Andrew training camp, Giants, Jets, stuff, come home
- 28:29Speaker 3: to American smash mouths football. Give give this up, Andrew,
- 28:33Speaker 3: give this obstat up.
- 28:38Speaker 4: Let's go big Blue Eye. I love what we're seeing
- 28:40Speaker 4: with Jackson Dart and that you know are incredible new coach,
- 28:44Speaker 4: It's going to be absolutely awesome. Curtis, you are gonna
- 28:46Speaker 4: have to go and give me a retatorial though, because
- 28:49Speaker 4: I might start saying pitch and that you gotta remember
- 28:54Speaker 4: pushball field. It's a game. It's not a match, and
- 28:57Speaker 4: it's not Neil Mill it's zero.
- 28:59Speaker 5: Zero all right, And it's not a uniform. It's a kit.
- 29:03Speaker 1: That well, thanks so much, and congratulations. It's going to
- 29:08Speaker 1: be fascinating to see what you do next. Andrew Giuliani
- 29:12Speaker 1: is the executive director for the White House Task Force.
- 29:15Speaker 5: Are you still that in that position or is that
- 29:17Speaker 5: position gone?
- 29:17Speaker 4: Now? No, it's you know, it's it still exists. We're
- 29:21Speaker 4: doing our final action reports, but in a few weeks
- 29:24Speaker 4: we'll hand this over to the Olympic Task Force and
- 29:27Speaker 4: see kind of the incredible progress that we have made.
- 29:31Speaker 4: So it's it's been really really an honor to be
- 29:33Speaker 4: able to work for this president, to be able to
- 29:35Speaker 4: work on this project, and to be able to spread
- 29:38Speaker 4: the word to great people like yourselves and Curtis as well.
- 29:41Speaker 1: Okay, and Curtis as well, I'll say I'll say it
- 29:44Speaker 1: with confidence then. Andrew Giuliani, Executive Director for the White
- 29:48Speaker 1: House Task Force on the FIFA World Cup twenty twenty six.
- 29:52Speaker 5: Again, congratulations.

- 30:10Speaker 3: your income. Then they package it up and sell it
- 30:12Speaker 3: to anyone willing to pay, including criminals, And you say
- 30:15Speaker 3: that can't be legal.
- 30:16Speaker 5: It is.
- 30:18Speaker 3: That's why you have to do what I do and
- 30:19Speaker 3: so many others. Get a pad in a pen, write
- 30:21Speaker 3: it down. Incogniti that's I cogn I to take back

- 31:13Speaker 1: For a former US Army soldier forty three years old
- 31:18Speaker 1: showed up at twenty six Federal Plaza where Ice is
- 31:21Speaker 1: by the way because he was carrying some anti ICE
- 31:25Speaker 1: messages on him, and he showed up there pretty well armed.
- 31:29Speaker 1: He had two axes, he had a machete, He had
- 31:32Speaker 1: two soft pellet rifles, he had soft pellet guns. He
- 31:36Speaker 1: had three fixed blade knives. He also had a container
- 31:39Speaker 1: of gasoline and some incendiary devices really just fireworks. And
- 31:44Speaker 1: he showed up there and poured the gasoline on the
- 31:49Speaker 1: steps in front of the federal building. He didn't dare
- 31:52Speaker 1: go inside and lit it on fire. He was quickly
- 31:55Speaker 1: taken out. His name is Andrew Arabaka.
- 31:58Speaker 5: Who is he?
- 31:59Speaker 11: He is an anti American, anti government extremist. We know
- 32:05Speaker 11: that from what he said, We know that from what
- 32:08Speaker 11: he has said post arrest, and we know that from
- 32:11Speaker 11: what his actions that he tried to take today.
- 32:14Speaker 1: That's James Barnacle. He is the assistant director of the
- 32:17Speaker 1: FBI locally. It is a strange situation because he really
- 32:22Speaker 1: never attacked anyone. He just had defensive weapons. It seems
- 32:27Speaker 1: like he shot it a couple of people, but with
- 32:29Speaker 1: the soft pellet guns and he set the fire. They
- 32:33Speaker 1: quickly took him out because he just went to a
- 32:35Speaker 1: place where that is filled with federal agents. And you listen,
- 32:40Speaker 1: you know more about this stuff than I do, Curtis,
- 32:42Speaker 1: But it seems to me that this guy obviously is
- 32:45Speaker 1: mentally disturbed, but he showed up on a suicide mission
- 32:49Speaker 1: that he thought he would be taken out when he
- 32:51Speaker 1: does this, because what else would he think. He never
- 32:53Speaker 1: even tried to enter. He almost set the fire to
- 32:56Speaker 1: get attention.
- 32:57Speaker 3: He was very fortunate that he did not get shot
- 33:00Speaker 3: and maybe killed, because he certainly did everything leading up
- 33:04Speaker 3: to that. We've seen the video that might have caused
- 33:08Speaker 3: anybody in that building who's involved with a federal government
- 33:12Speaker 3: or security to remove their revolver and maybe shoot him.
- 33:15Speaker 3: They obviously were able to restrain him. I'm sure they
- 33:19Speaker 3: took him for a psychiatric observation, but what we know
- 33:22Speaker 3: of him is interesting. He came out of the Poughkeepsie
- 33:25Speaker 3: area mid Hudson, joined the United States Army, as you
- 33:29Speaker 3: had mentioned, and fixed Patriot missiles like from two thousand
- 33:35Speaker 3: and one to two thousand and five. So have to
- 33:38Speaker 3: have a good skill level in order to do that
- 33:40Speaker 3: Patriot missiles. We just heard the President and talking about
- 33:43Speaker 3: how he's going to let Zelenski and Ukraine make his
- 33:46Speaker 3: own Patriot missiles. He's not going to have to depend
- 33:48Speaker 3: on the United States. So you've got to have some
- 33:51Speaker 3: good technological skill. He was living in Harlem at the time.
- 33:55Speaker 3: He was known to be walking around under normal circumstances,
- 33:59Speaker 3: as he was at eight twenty yesterday morning with a
- 34:04Speaker 3: US Army helmet and pulling a cart with a sign
- 34:08Speaker 3: reading ice off our streets. So he had this obsession
- 34:12Speaker 3: and then he went out and he ended up Injuring,
- 34:16Speaker 3: ironically an asylum seeker who had to go to the
- 34:20Speaker 3: federal facility there to continue the process of being able
- 34:24Speaker 3: to stay here legally. But we have a lot of people,
- 34:27Speaker 3: some who were politically motivated, who go out there. I
- 34:30Speaker 3: call them lone wolves. He's going to end up doing
- 34:33Speaker 3: a lot of time, now, there's no doubt about it.
- 34:36Speaker 3: For this really crazy action could have caused an extraordinary
- 34:42Speaker 3: amount of damage to people. Imagine if he had poured
- 34:45Speaker 3: that gas as people were entering or entering that building,
- 34:48Speaker 3: which is he was a whole blanket of fire that
- 34:52Speaker 3: went up in the air. But it was at eight
- 34:54Speaker 3: twenty in the morning, And I just say that, sure,
- 34:57Speaker 3: you have a heated rhetoric and fire up those people who,
- 35:02Speaker 3: let's face it, are not necessarily in complete control of
- 35:05Speaker 3: their emotional and thought process.
- 35:08Speaker 1: Yeah, I was talking to We were talking to John
- 35:10Speaker 1: Decker a little while ago, and I brought this up
- 35:13Speaker 1: that Tom Homan came out and spoke to the media,
- 35:17Speaker 1: and it was interesting. He only he didn't take a question.
- 35:20Speaker 1: He just talked about what happened, and he got all
- 35:23Speaker 1: teered up. He got extremely emotional and said, this rhetoric
- 35:27Speaker 1: has to stop. These are men and women who are
- 35:30Speaker 1: doing their job, and they're helping to protect America. And
- 35:34Speaker 1: these are federal agents you're talking about. These are men
- 35:37Speaker 1: and women that go home to their families every night,
- 35:40Speaker 1: God willing, and they're already in enough danger, so please
- 35:44Speaker 1: stop the rhetoric. He got teared up, and he said
- 35:47Speaker 1: he left and he said this is disgusting and walked away.
- 35:50Speaker 1: And I think everybody listening now probably agrees.
- 35:54Speaker 3: That's why I like the way Tom Holman handles each thing.
- 35:58Speaker 3: So no slight to Secretary of Homeland Security mull And
- 36:02Speaker 3: I think he's done an outstanding job having replaced the
- 36:06Speaker 3: dog killer gnom oh God, thank god we're rid of her.
- 36:11Speaker 3: But the way he handles that, he can phase a
- 36:13Speaker 3: certain image now up next. It wouldn't matter what the
- 36:16Speaker 3: hell Tom Homan would say, or even what the President
- 36:19Speaker 3: did say about Johan Mandami, The mayor of the City
- 36:23Speaker 3: of New York insisted that if his adversary B. B. Nantennao,
- 36:28Speaker 3: the Prime Minister of Israel, would have come to the
