- 0:42Speaker 4: kidding me.
- 0:44Speaker 5: I'm wrapped up in these meetings on peace, and I said,
- 0:48Speaker 5: it's between peace and Sid Rosenberger.
- 0:50Speaker 6: I said, let's let's sake Rosenberger.
- 0:51Speaker 4: Okay, my advice is to be strong. I don't I
- 0:57Speaker 4: don't like it when I see Jewish people, moms and dads,
- 1:02Speaker 4: they tell their kids, you can take your yama go off,
- 1:06Speaker 4: take it off if you're nervous to walk in the streets,
- 1:08Speaker 4: take a yama off. I can't stand that. Or hijamogan
- 1:11Speaker 4: w you do that? They win, They'd almost rather see
- 1:15Speaker 4: that than a dead body in the street of television.
- 1:17Speaker 4: Trust me. Okay, don't do that. Don't tell your kids.
- 1:20Speaker 4: I know you're a parent. You're nervous. I'm nervous. I'm
- 1:22Speaker 4: nervous too. Okay. I've got a son who goes to
- 1:25Speaker 4: school in Chelsea. It's not easy, and my daughter just
- 1:28Speaker 4: came back from London. You want to talk about a
- 1:29Speaker 4: rough place for three years. When you do that, you're
- 1:33Speaker 4: really doing a disservice to the Jewish people fighting for
- 1:37Speaker 4: us in Israel and all of you find people in
- 1:39Speaker 4: the audience here today, do not do that. Where are
- 1:44Speaker 4: your yamaka? Proudly? Where your kai proudly? And show everybody
- 1:49Speaker 4: that you're Jewish. And I gotta say, to quote from
- 1:51Speaker 4: the great movie goodbellas, if you get your ass kicked
- 1:54Speaker 4: once in a while, so what everybody needs to go
- 1:56Speaker 4: to ask kicking once in a while, Right, But it's okay,
- 1:59Speaker 4: you'll go to bed, I'll proud you. Don't hide the
- 2:02Speaker 4: fact that you're Jewish flaunted.
- 2:04Speaker 7: Two of California's biggest prizes are up for grabs in
- 2:07Speaker 7: primary election, the race.
- 2:09Speaker 4: For governor and the La mayoral.
- 2:11Speaker 8: Race, and ali returns are out pacing our last primary
- 2:14Speaker 8: election four years ago as a surge of late ballots
- 2:18Speaker 8: flow in and CBSLA political report of Tom waits sear,
- 2:21Speaker 8: we've got some latest numbers, Tom.
- 2:23Speaker 9: We do, and in fact, those numbers that you're talking about, Pat,
- 2:25Speaker 9: that just changed a few hours ago. Oh and back
- 2:28Speaker 9: and forth. So yeah, it's ticking up, not a lot,
- 2:30Speaker 9: but a little bit. So that's good though, But it
- 2:32Speaker 9: turned out still only at about eighteen percent statewide. But again,
- 2:35Speaker 9: like Pat and Ruderbey were saying, that's an increase from
- 2:38Speaker 9: where we were on our election, even our primary in
- 2:40Speaker 9: twenty twenty two. In LA though that number is lower
- 2:43Speaker 9: fifteen percent, but it's a huge increase from where it
- 2:46Speaker 9: was just a few days ago. The candidates doing all
- 2:48Speaker 9: they can to get out the votes from Sacramento to
- 2:51Speaker 9: La City Hall. California voters are deciding the state's biggest races,
- 2:56Speaker 9: and the stakes couldn't be highed.
- 2:57Speaker 10: This selection has been unlike others that we have seen
- 3:01Speaker 10: because there's been so much change in movement. It's been
- 3:04Speaker 10: topsy turvy, from the governor's race to the mayor's race.
- 3:07Speaker 10: What we're seeing is that ballots are coming in now.
- 3:11Speaker 10: I think that it seems like a lot of people
- 3:13Speaker 10: were holding onto their ballots, perhaps because they really didn't
- 3:15Speaker 10: know where they wanted to.
- 3:17Speaker 2: Cast their ballot.
- 3:18Speaker 10: But as we get closer to election day, we see
- 3:20Speaker 10: that people are getting excited and turning them in.
- 3:23Speaker 9: In the governor's race, recent poll show Democrat Javier Bessera
- 3:26Speaker 9: in the lead, with Republican Steve Hilton close behind. Democrat
- 3:30Speaker 9: Tom Steyers also in the mix. Some polls show him
- 3:33Speaker 9: in second. The top two vote getters go on to
- 3:35Speaker 9: the November general election.
- 3:37Speaker 11: A lot of unexpected events in this election. In the
- 3:41Speaker 11: gubernatorial race, you have the withdrawal of Eric Swolwell. Nobody
- 3:45Speaker 11: knew how that would work out, and apparently I support
- 3:48Speaker 11: want to Javier Biserra, but Sarah is not so far
- 3:52Speaker 11: ahead that there isn't a possibility of an upset.
- 3:57Speaker 12: Thank you for voting.
- 3:58Speaker 9: In LA's mayoral incumbent Mayor Karen Bass was out on
- 4:02Speaker 9: the campaign trail Monday, delivering her closing message as she
- 4:05Speaker 9: fights to keep her job.
- 4:06Speaker 4: Forty two thousand units of house crime rates down only
- 4:10Speaker 4: sixty years.
- 4:11Speaker 2: Well, we have the Olympics in the world coming in La.
- 4:15Speaker 9: Times UC Berkeley poll out last week showed Bass neck
- 4:18Speaker 9: and neck with her two challengers, former reality TV star
- 4:21Speaker 9: Spencer Pratt and city councilwoman Nythia Rahman, Bass's one time friend,
- 4:26Speaker 9: an ally.
- 4:26Speaker 13: They are tired of how high the housing costs are here,
- 4:30Speaker 13: how it's driving families out of the city, how our
- 4:32Speaker 13: response to our homelessness crisis has been lackluster.
- 4:35Speaker 9: Pratt was not out campaigning publicly on the eve of
- 4:37Speaker 9: the election. His team released a statement saying he is
- 4:40Speaker 9: engaging with voters today, but we are not making it
- 4:43Speaker 9: a media spectacle. He's having intimate and meaningful conversations across
- 4:47Speaker 9: the city.
- 4:48Speaker 14: Spencer Pratt has really caught on like a rocket fire,
- 4:53Speaker 14: and he's now in a race with Nythia Rahman for
- 4:56Speaker 14: who's going to come in second.
- 4:58Speaker 4: But they're so close that they're within the march.
- 5:00Speaker 9: We're According to the political data firm PDI, registered Republicans
- 5:04Speaker 9: were outperforming registered Democrats in ballot returns for much of
- 5:08Speaker 9: the current primary voting cycle, but in the last few
- 5:11Speaker 9: days there's been a surge of registered Democrats returning their ballots.
- 5:15Speaker 10: This is a fascinating radis in large part because as
- 5:19Speaker 10: the Angelinos go to cast their ballot very few people
- 5:21Speaker 10: feel terribly excited about any one of these candidates. We
- 5:25Speaker 10: see that even in the kinds of endorsements that have happened.
- 5:28Speaker 9: One group not turning out so far to vote young people.
- 5:31Speaker 9: According to PDI's election data, only five percent of voters
- 5:35Speaker 9: eighteen to thirty four have returned their ballots.
- 5:39Speaker 2: You're on one nation tonight.
- 5:41Speaker 15: Look at our guest line up.
- 5:42Speaker 7: Sid Rosenberg has had it with the socialist mayor and
- 5:44Speaker 7: the anti Semitism.
- 5:45Speaker 4: The latest blow.
- 5:46Speaker 7: He refuses to show up to Israeli Day Parade, first
- 5:50Speaker 7: mayor in New York history not to do that. So
- 5:53Speaker 7: New York has never been more hostile to the Jewish
- 5:55Speaker 7: community than it is today. There's no question Mayor Zora
- 5:58Speaker 7: Mamdani has made everything worse, from his threats to arrest
- 6:01Speaker 7: Israeli Prime Minister in at Yahoo whenever he comes to
- 6:03Speaker 7: New York, to his in f response to constant anti
- 6:07Speaker 7: Semitic activity which is all over New York, ultimately resulting
- 6:10Speaker 7: in being the first mayor not to march in today's
- 6:13Speaker 7: Israeli Day Parade. And now a famous Brooklyn food co
- 6:16Speaker 7: op has voted to boycott Israeli products.
- 6:19Speaker 2: Not a word from him.
- 6:20Speaker 7: This is not a surprise to our next guest, said Rosenberg,
- 6:22Speaker 7: the host of Sitting Friends of the Morning on New
- 6:24Speaker 7: York seventy seven WABC number one, city number one station.
- 6:28Speaker 7: He's also a member of the Holocaust Memorial Museum Council.
- 6:31Speaker 7: The President paranteed it to that, Yes, you knew this
- 6:34Speaker 7: was going to be bad. Is this worse thing you
- 6:36Speaker 7: thought in terms of for Jews in New York?
- 6:39Speaker 4: It's much worse. And I didn't know it was going
- 6:41Speaker 4: to be bad, and so did you. But this is Brian.
- 6:44Speaker 4: This is much worse this guy. And look, it's not
- 6:47Speaker 4: just him, his whole family. His father is an anti
- 6:49Speaker 4: Semite responsible for a lot of those campus problems of Columbia.
- 6:53Speaker 4: His wife is a wretched viol anti Semite, liking graphic
- 6:57Speaker 4: images of girls being raped and babies being murdered by
- 6:59Speaker 4: an octor with the seventh. So the whole family a
- 7:01Speaker 4: bunch of jewe hating anti Semites. And whether it's no
- 7:04Speaker 4: buffer zones in front of citygogues or schools in New
- 7:08Speaker 4: York City not showing up to the for eight first
- 7:09Speaker 4: want to do that. Since nineteen sixty four, his constant
- 7:13Speaker 4: rhetoric about globalizing the at Defada, Israel's not will you
- 7:16Speaker 4: a Jewish state? Time and time again. This guy's an
- 7:18Speaker 4: opportunity to prove us wrong. He fails every time. He's
- 7:22Speaker 4: a bad guy. He's an anti Semite.
- 7:24Speaker 2: I want to play this, you guys.
- 7:26Speaker 16: You know because my colleague at WABC, Sid Rosenberg, is
- 7:29Speaker 16: always feisty. He did an event where he, you know,
- 7:33Speaker 16: said Mandani basically hates Jews. Now Sid is Jewish and
- 7:38Speaker 16: a proud jew and I think, not only if you're Jewish,
- 7:41Speaker 16: everybody should be support the Jewish population. We should all
- 7:45Speaker 16: be supportive of each other. And this is cut thirteen.
- 7:49Speaker 16: This is Sid Rosenberg. I want to play this because
- 7:52Speaker 16: he was interviewed by Melissa Russo, who is on the
- 7:55Speaker 16: local NBC station WNBC Television because money. He came out then,
- 8:01Speaker 16: you know a few days before and said Mandani hates us,
- 8:04Speaker 16: he wants to get rid of us.
- 8:05Speaker 12: Da da da da da.
- 8:07Speaker 4: And Sid's very passionate about him.
- 8:09Speaker 16: I say bravo to said And what happened, Well, Melissa
- 8:12Speaker 16: Russo confronted Sid at the Israel Day parade and uh,
- 8:17Speaker 16: let's just say, uh, Sid did great.
- 8:19Speaker 4: Take a listen. He wants you dead. He wants you dead.
- 8:23Speaker 17: You actually believe that Mayor Mom Donnie wants Jews to
- 8:26Speaker 17: be dead?
- 8:27Speaker 4: I'm not sure he doesn't. That's my answer.
- 8:29Speaker 17: What basis do you have for that? I don't think
- 8:32Speaker 17: he cares you the way I mean to say that
- 8:33Speaker 17: he wants people dead is a scary thing for people
- 8:35Speaker 17: to believe.
- 8:36Speaker 18: And you have a lot of.
- 8:36Speaker 4: People who follow you. Prove me wrong when you've got
- 8:39Speaker 4: a mayor who's not here today. The only mayor in
- 8:41Speaker 4: the history of our city, Melissia was a smart girl, okay,
- 8:44Speaker 4: who uses some nonsense discuse about Israel and Bibi? Is
- 8:47Speaker 4: this parade in Tel avivs is people? Natanyahu?
- 8:49Speaker 18: Here?
- 8:50Speaker 4: The thought that I do with Israel and Bibi? He hates
- 8:52Speaker 4: the Jewish people, he hates us.
- 8:53Speaker 17: What does his absence actually mean that he wants them dead?
- 8:57Speaker 19: I mean?
- 8:57Speaker 17: Is that not inflammatory?
- 8:58Speaker 4: Not inflammatory?
- 8:59Speaker 18: To me?
- 8:59Speaker 4: It's more. But why don't you ask him about his wife?
- 9:01Speaker 4: We have asked him, sure we have. The press in
- 9:04Speaker 4: this city is much more obsessed with what sim Rosenberg
- 9:07Speaker 4: says on a radio show than what the mayor, his
- 9:10Speaker 4: wife and his father. You guys should be pushing that
- 9:12Speaker 4: guy every single day. In not worried what I have
- 9:14Speaker 4: to say out of private jewiship bank on a Wednesday
- 9:16Speaker 4: night in Battery Park.
- 9:17Speaker 11: Is the mayor of our city.
- 9:19Speaker 20: I take seriously my responsibility to protect the safety and
- 9:23Speaker 20: well being of every New Yorker and every event, regardless
- 9:26Speaker 20: of my attendance.
- 9:27Speaker 17: With due respect said, you have a big following and
- 9:30Speaker 17: people listen to you. And if you're telling people that
- 9:32Speaker 17: Mayor Mondani wants Jews dead, does that not make Jews
- 9:36Speaker 17: feel more fearful than they already do. Isn't he providing
- 9:41Speaker 17: the resources and having his police commissioner protect this parade?
- 9:46Speaker 4: Well, hold on a second, he's providing resources. He had
- 9:48Speaker 4: two opportunities to put pupper zones in front of synagogues
- 9:51Speaker 4: and shols. He didn't either one. He celebrated not by day. Listen,
- 9:54Speaker 4: if I say something that's a little inflammatory, he sets
- 9:57Speaker 4: up every day that's inflammatory. Tough opportunity he fails. You're
- 10:01Speaker 4: doing a good job. Thank you very much. I love
- 10:03Speaker 4: say you're doing a good job. That's not like Trump
- 10:06Speaker 4: says blah blah blah blah blah uh.
- 10:08Speaker 16: Thank you very much for your attention to detail.
- 10:11Speaker 4: Donald J.
- 10:11Speaker 16: Trump, THO was a great, ending said Bravo said, I'm
- 10:14Speaker 16: telling you, you know, why say oh yeah, why isn't
- 10:17Speaker 16: the rest of.
- 10:17Speaker 4: The media not going, hey, wait a minute.
- 10:20Speaker 16: Isn't it really despicable that he's not here at the parade?
- 10:24Speaker 16: Isn't it really despicable that he continues to bash Israel?
- 10:29Speaker 4: He says he's not.
- 10:29Speaker 16: Anti Semitic, but he bashes Israel at every turn. Where's
- 10:33Speaker 16: the rest of the local media New York. It's like
- 10:36Speaker 16: they're like cowering in a corner. They've lost, like their
- 10:40Speaker 16: sense of mission. What about covering everybody fairly and what
- 10:43Speaker 16: about it? Had they done it during the campaign?
- 10:45Speaker 4: You know, here in New Jersey, for example, it's a very,
- 10:48Speaker 4: very big day. We'll get to that. Six states that
- 10:53Speaker 4: have key primaries across the country today, from Ayowa to
- 10:58Speaker 4: Montana to South Dakota to New Mexico to New Jersey
- 11:02Speaker 4: and of course the big one that everybody is watching,
- 11:05Speaker 4: those two major races for mayor and governor in the
- 11:09Speaker 4: state of California. Some hysteria there, mom, Donnie, providing hysteria
- 11:15Speaker 4: in this city every day.
- 11:17Speaker 18: You know.
- 11:17Speaker 4: I started that open today though with a piece that
- 11:19Speaker 4: I did yesterday at the Jerusalem Post conference. I never
- 11:25Speaker 4: got invited to that before. And they hold these Jerusalem
- 11:29Speaker 4: Post conferences all over the country. So they invited me
- 11:32Speaker 4: to go to the one down in Miami in December.
- 11:36Speaker 4: And you guys may remember I took a little time
- 11:38Speaker 4: off in December and the family we went down to
- 11:42Speaker 4: Fort Lauderdale, stayed for about a week, and then we
- 11:47Speaker 4: came back. But about four days after we came back
- 11:51Speaker 4: was the Jerusalem Post Miami conference and they said, SID,
- 11:55Speaker 4: just stay and I said, I don't know. That's going
- 11:58Speaker 4: to be two weeks of missing shows. And you know,
- 12:01Speaker 4: those guys do a great job, but I'm not here,
- 12:03Speaker 4: but I need to be here. Let's just leave it
- 12:05Speaker 4: at that, Okay, I need to be here, So I said,
- 12:07Speaker 4: I can't miss another week. And they also weren't going
- 12:12Speaker 4: to pay for everything. I want them to pay for it,
- 12:14Speaker 4: to be honest. So I said, listen, here's the deal.
- 12:17Speaker 4: We hold a major conference in New York, a big one.
- 12:21Speaker 4: We'd make you the keynote speaker, and this way you
- 12:23Speaker 4: can go home and don't worry about it. You'll speak
- 12:25Speaker 4: in New York. I said that would be fantastic. So
- 12:29Speaker 4: sure enough, yesterday was in fact, the Jerusalem Post conference
- 12:34Speaker 4: in New York, and I went there right after the
- 12:36Speaker 4: show our dear friend Liz Pipco. I met her. A baby.
- 12:40Speaker 4: What a cute kid, My god, what a cute kid.
- 12:43Speaker 4: Liz Pipkow's little girl. I think she's three or four
- 12:46Speaker 4: months old now, and her husband Darren. They showed up
- 12:49Speaker 4: at the conference after we spoke, and she was on
- 12:51Speaker 4: the same panel with me. She'll be in these studios
- 12:55Speaker 4: on this show tomorrow. So I went and I spoke
- 12:58Speaker 4: and it was really great. I was Zebra a few hours.
- 13:02Speaker 4: I actually was on stage twice because you guys may
- 13:05Speaker 4: remember late in the show yesterday my buddy who's the
- 13:09Speaker 4: governor of Binya Meen in Judaya and Samaria, he came
- 13:12Speaker 4: with his friend Eliana and Emily Austin was in studio
- 13:16Speaker 4: and a kidnamed Havat Hashem Gordon, who happens to be
- 13:21Speaker 4: a big time UFC fighter in Israel, nineteen years old.
- 13:25Speaker 4: He's a champ. He's twelve and zero, and they gave
- 13:28Speaker 4: him an award yesterday the Juwsalem Post conference, and they
- 13:30Speaker 4: grabbed me and they said, Sid, we want you to
- 13:33Speaker 4: give it to him. So I went back up on
- 13:35Speaker 4: stage about an hour and a half after I spoke
- 13:38Speaker 4: with Pipco gave Gordon the award before I left. But
- 13:42Speaker 4: as I was leaving, Bruce Plateman, our enthusiastic choice for Governor,
- 13:47Speaker 4: Bruce Plateman, he showed up. Michael Rappaport showed up. It
- 13:50Speaker 4: was the who's who of the Jewish world, the superstars
- 13:55Speaker 4: here in New York at that conference yesterday. And I
- 13:58Speaker 4: thought that today, really good job. So that first clip
- 14:02Speaker 4: you heard in the open where I talked about Jewish
- 14:05Speaker 4: kids in New York that parents actually they actually encourage
- 14:10Speaker 4: them to take off their yamakas and hide them Mugan divides,
- 14:13Speaker 4: and I go, don't do that. Would you believe this?
- 14:16Speaker 4: Known that that clip, you can go check this for yourself.
- 14:20Speaker 4: And this is why I tried to explain the folks
- 14:23Speaker 4: all over New York, even at the station, that no,
- 14:26Speaker 4: people are not getting jew tired. Okay they're not. They're
- 14:30Speaker 4: not because you can do all these stories on Facebook
- 14:33Speaker 4: about New York and Iron and all those stories and
- 14:36Speaker 4: no one's going to care. You'll be lucky again one
- 14:39Speaker 4: hundred or one thousand likes. Do you know how many
- 14:42Speaker 4: likes and views that clip from the j Post conference
- 14:46Speaker 4: has already received on Twitter this morning.
- 14:49Speaker 2: No, how many views?
- 14:50Speaker 4: Yeah, seventy seventy thousand, Lewis you want to take a guess?
- 14:57Speaker 20: Okay, I guess it's going to be higher one hundred thousand.
- 15:00Speaker 4: Undred thousand. You ready, guys? Seventeen million? Wow, seventeen million.
- 15:06Speaker 4: You can tweet to your face turns blue at this
- 15:09Speaker 4: radio station all across the city. That's why this show,
- 15:13Speaker 4: so I said, I know what I'm doing, Okay, that's
- 15:16Speaker 4: why this show gets bigger ratings and any other show
- 15:20Speaker 4: at this station, and this station does well compared to
- 15:23Speaker 4: the competition, because seventeen million people have already watched what
- 15:30Speaker 4: I did at the Jpost yesterday, seventeen million, and that
- 15:34Speaker 4: number will continue to go up. So that's why I
- 15:36Speaker 4: put that piece at the very top of the open,
- 15:39Speaker 4: just to tell you how many people and I am
- 15:42Speaker 4: in that Jerusalem Post in terms of articles me and Trump,
- 15:45Speaker 4: I would say about twice a month. So as I
- 15:48Speaker 4: get set to go back to Israel on June the eighteenth,
- 15:52Speaker 4: can't wait. Obviously a lot of folks there are very excited.
- 15:56Speaker 4: They pay very close attention to what I say here
- 15:58Speaker 4: in New York, I mean Noam, when I tell you
- 16:01Speaker 4: they pay very close attention. You wouldn't believe it. In
- 16:03Speaker 4: the last week alone, this show has been in the papers,
- 16:07Speaker 4: in the Jerusalem Post, the Times of Israel Andjnesh dot
- 16:11Speaker 4: Organ again seventeen million views on that piece on Twitter
- 16:16Speaker 4: from yesterday. My daughter Ava, she just arrived in Tel
- 16:20Speaker 4: Aviv this morning. Do you know the story? So my
- 16:22Speaker 4: daughter Ava, she's gone to Israel for a couple of weeks.
- 16:26Speaker 4: She's coming home and we're about to go, and she
- 16:29Speaker 4: has a place to stay the second week of her vacation.
- 16:32Speaker 4: So she said, Daddy, I need a place to stay
- 16:34Speaker 4: the first week. And I know you have friends all
- 16:36Speaker 4: over Israel help me with the hotel blah blah blah.
- 16:40Speaker 4: So no, you know my friend Johnny Daniels, right, Yes, sure,
- 16:43Speaker 4: Johnny is a hugely, immensely popular figure in both Israel
- 16:47Speaker 4: and the UK. Scott gets information about Phebe and Trump
- 16:52Speaker 4: and Israel and the United States before anybody else. He's
- 16:55Speaker 4: been on this show a million times. I keep asking him,
- 16:57Speaker 4: how do you get that info? He won't tell me,
- 16:59Speaker 4: of course. So he lives in Tel Aviv. But he's
- 17:02Speaker 4: in New York until the middle of the month, so
- 17:05Speaker 4: he actually gave my daughter the keys towards apartment, and
- 17:09Speaker 4: Ava the first week, starting today, is staying at Johnny
- 17:12Speaker 4: Daniel's pad in Tel Aviv. Of course that's pretty sweet
- 17:16Speaker 4: and't that sweet. Yeah, got a great place and it's
- 17:19Speaker 4: been living there for many, many years. And he's in
- 17:21Speaker 4: a great neighborhood and he's six blocks from the beach.
- 17:25Speaker 4: And that's where Ava Rosenberg is staying starting today. And
- 17:29Speaker 4: there is some news between President Trump and BB. Supposedly
- 17:33Speaker 4: President Trump cursed out Bibe again. He does it every
- 17:37Speaker 4: couple of weeks. You know, he's starting to think that
- 17:39Speaker 4: for all the idiots out there, there's a lot of
- 17:41Speaker 4: them who'll say that this is not America's war, this
- 17:45Speaker 4: is Bbe's war, and basically Trump is Bbe's bitch. He's
- 17:49Speaker 4: starting to think that maybe Trump every now and then
- 17:52Speaker 4: just reaches on BB just so the world knows who
- 17:56Speaker 4: that he is, because Daddy's Trump. It's not Bbe, it's
- 17:59Speaker 4: not Bibe's war, it's not Israel's war. It's all about
- 18:02Speaker 4: President Trump. He takes orders from nobody, nobody, and every
- 18:07Speaker 4: now and then he will rip Bibe a new one,
- 18:10Speaker 4: and there is some report that he yelled at Bibe,
- 18:13Speaker 4: used the up word, told him, this is why everybody
- 18:16Speaker 4: hates Israel and all that stuff, you know. So I
- 18:19Speaker 4: reached out to Alex Treman in Jerusalem and I said,
- 18:22Speaker 4: what do you think about this? He's in Jerusalem, Okay,
- 18:24Speaker 4: he knows the dynamic better than most people here, and
- 18:28Speaker 4: he said, means nothing. It's gonna end up favoring both
- 18:33Speaker 4: Trump and bb So in Israel, at least, they think
- 18:37Speaker 4: it's more about show than any real animosity or even
- 18:42Speaker 4: anger at the moment between Trump and Bibe.
- 18:45Speaker 14: What do you think, though, Well, I don't know if
- 18:47Speaker 14: I buy that, because it seems like the Israelis really
- 18:50Speaker 14: thought that they were rooting out Hezbollah in Lebanon. They
- 18:53Speaker 14: were moving closer to Beirut, moving further in to Lebanon,
- 18:57Speaker 14: and now all of a sudden that has stopped. And
- 19:00Speaker 14: of course the fear and the part of the Israelis
- 19:02Speaker 14: that live in the northern part of the country is
- 19:03Speaker 14: that the firing will begin, that they haven't finished off
- 19:06Speaker 14: the job. So I don't know if I totally buy that.
- 19:09Speaker 14: I think they thought they really had Hezbala on the
- 19:11Speaker 14: run and they want to keep it that way. But
- 19:14Speaker 14: clearly the President has gotten to the Prime Minister because
- 19:17Speaker 14: they're going to stop it at least for now.
- 19:19Speaker 2: And the two sides are going to talk in Washington today.
- 19:21Speaker 4: Yeah, they are going to talk Israel and Lebanon. So
- 19:26Speaker 4: was still kind of stuck in the Iran situation, right,
- 19:30Speaker 4: nothing changed overnight.
- 19:32Speaker 14: Well, Iran is trying to tie it all to what's
- 19:34Speaker 14: going on over in Israel and Lebanon, and.
- 19:36Speaker 2: They say, hey, that's part of the ceasefire deal.
- 19:39Speaker 14: If Israel's firing at Beirut or Lebanon or whatever and
- 19:43Speaker 14: southern Lebanon then deals off. And so yesterday they asked
- 19:47Speaker 14: the President, they said, it looks like Iran has walked
- 19:50Speaker 14: away from the table, and he said that's fine with him.
- 19:52Speaker 14: He said he'll figure something else out. So we don't
- 19:54Speaker 14: know where this stands right now.
- 19:56Speaker 4: All right. Tell me about these primaries again. Six states
- 20:00Speaker 4: a huge day. Those states include South Dakota, New Mexico, Montana,
- 20:06Speaker 4: and Iowa. But the two big ones are right here
- 20:09Speaker 4: in New Jersey, and of course the biggest one is
- 20:11Speaker 4: in California. So our friend alex Za Dan, who's been
- 20:15Speaker 4: on this show many times, pretty popular newsguy in New
- 20:20Speaker 4: Jersey decided to run for state Senate to eventually take
- 20:23Speaker 4: on that louse, Corey Booker in November. But it is
- 20:27Speaker 4: a four person primary, all men in that race in
- 20:31Speaker 4: New Jersey today. So the Dan's been on two or
- 20:33Speaker 4: three times. I've been to New Jersey a few times
- 20:37Speaker 4: to help him out. We did a really cool fundraiser
- 20:41Speaker 4: for Alex about a month and a half ago at
- 20:43Speaker 4: Trump International in Coltsneck, New Jersey. So today, I guess
- 20:47Speaker 4: is judgment day, you know. And those are four candidates
- 20:51Speaker 4: again looking to represent the Republican Party against Corey Booker
- 20:55Speaker 4: in November. But the bigger race in New Jersey that's
- 20:59Speaker 4: getting a lot of this morning, especially on Fox News,
- 21:02Speaker 4: centers around this guy him Way. And there are reports
- 21:06Speaker 4: that this guy who's running for a seat in New
- 21:10Speaker 4: Jersey today actually has or had ties to the chic.
- 21:15Speaker 14: This is crazy to the blind cheek, though I will
- 21:18Speaker 14: point out that they say that's total nonsense, and who
- 21:21Speaker 14: they say his campaign capaign.
- 21:24Speaker 4: Says he's a liar. I'm telling you the guy's lying.
- 21:27Speaker 4: I mean, it's being stated. All you're going to tell
- 21:29Speaker 4: me that it's such a stretch to believe that a
- 21:32Speaker 4: candidate running today with all these psychotic DSA candidates, including
- 21:37Speaker 4: Nipia in Los Angeles running against Spencer Pratt and Karen Bass,
- 21:41Speaker 4: that it's such a stretch to believe that a guy
- 21:44Speaker 4: running in New Jersey has ties to terrorism. That's a stretch.
- 21:49Speaker 14: And I don't think so. I'm just telling you what
- 21:51Speaker 14: he said. He said that, you know, they're calling this
- 21:53Speaker 14: bigoted and that kind of thing, and so they're throwing
- 21:55Speaker 14: it out and they're saying, no, this isn't the case.
- 21:58Speaker 14: It looks like he has a real shot of winning.
- 21:59Speaker 14: You know, he's going for the seat in central New
- 22:01Speaker 14: Jersey where there's a Congresswoman, Bonnie Watson Coleman who's retiring.
- 22:06Speaker 2: So you have all these Democrats gonna win this seat.
- 22:08Speaker 14: That's really there's not really much the bottom line. Yeah,
- 22:11Speaker 14: so whoever wins this primary is likely going to win
- 22:14Speaker 14: the seat. And so he has a real shot. I mean,
- 22:17Speaker 14: he's a plastic surgeon. He worked as a trauma surgeon
- 22:21Speaker 14: in Gaza, and he's he seems to have a lot
- 22:25Speaker 14: of support from these pro Palestinian super packs. They've poured
- 22:28Speaker 14: a ton of money into this race. So I haven't
- 22:31Speaker 14: seen any polling. Maybe I don't even know if there's
- 22:33Speaker 14: been any polling done. Sometimes these smaller races, there's not,
- 22:36Speaker 14: but they say he has a real shot today.
- 22:38Speaker 4: I gotta tell you, I don't do this often, but
- 22:40Speaker 4: I'm doing it now. If you're in New Jersey, if
- 22:42Speaker 4: we've got a huge audience, you've got a bigger audience
- 22:46Speaker 4: than one on one point five New Jersey. That's their
- 22:48Speaker 4: big station. Greig Carton was on there for many years
- 22:51Speaker 4: with Ray Woolsey doing the afternoons. They did very very well.
- 22:54Speaker 4: And who's the guy that Chitawelly kicked his ass in
- 22:57Speaker 4: the primary last year that does that morning show. He
- 23:01Speaker 4: went back to doing mornings after he got obliterated in
- 23:04Speaker 4: the primary. Forget his name, but he's on, but we
- 23:07Speaker 4: kill him. So if you're in New Jersey this morning
- 23:10Speaker 4: listening and you intend to vote, whether it's the Alex
- 23:14Speaker 4: Zedan Racy Hamway race. Yesterday, we had, for example, Tippany
- 23:18Speaker 4: Boris on this show. And if that last name sounds familiar,
- 23:22Speaker 4: it should because her husband, Blexico Boris, was a monster
- 23:26Speaker 4: superstar with the Pittsburgh Steelers, but more importantly, won a
- 23:30Speaker 4: super Bowl with our New York Football Giants. Fact, he
- 23:33Speaker 4: caught the game winning touchdown pass from Eli Manning to
- 23:36Speaker 4: beat the Patriots. Four great years with the Giants, one
- 23:39Speaker 4: year with the Jets, and they stayed in New Jersey.
- 23:43Speaker 4: Now sixteen years and Tippany Borris is running in District nine,
- 23:47Speaker 4: which I believe includes parts of Passaic County, Bergen County,
- 23:51Speaker 4: the lower portion of that places like Patterson and these
- 23:55Speaker 4: types of spots. So she's running today. So if you're
- 23:59Speaker 4: in New Jersey and you are voting this morning, call
- 24:02Speaker 4: in and want to know what race you're voting on
- 24:04Speaker 4: and who you're thinking about voting for. The problem is
- 24:08Speaker 4: I do this well, I don't do it at all.
- 24:11Speaker 4: We barely take phone calls on this show. I don't
- 24:13Speaker 4: even know the number. I don't even know it. Good,
- 24:15Speaker 4: Bill Spadia, Yes, that's right, Bill Spadia, very good. Yes,
- 24:19Speaker 4: what is the number for folks to call into this
- 24:22Speaker 4: radio station? Somebody text dominic? This is terrible. We don't
- 24:29Speaker 4: know the number. Justin you know the number for potential callers.
- 24:33Speaker 4: Not many. I know. Pete Morgan right now just died.
- 24:35Speaker 4: He's undergone all these horrific surgeries. He survived all those,
- 24:40Speaker 4: But anytime I mentioned callers, Pete Morgan comes very very
- 24:43Speaker 4: close to death. Nice gift as he gets out of
- 24:45Speaker 4: the What is the number?
- 24:47Speaker 15: Now?
- 24:47Speaker 21: I'm gonna give you an opportunity to go back on
- 24:49Speaker 21: this if you like, no, just give out the number.
- 24:52Speaker 4: Damnit fine?
- 24:54Speaker 21: Nine to two two.
- 24:57Speaker 4: Eight hundred and eight four eight nine two too. Nailed
- 25:01Speaker 4: it only if you're in New Jersey. So don't call
- 25:03Speaker 4: and say you're in Jersey and you're some asshole from
- 25:06Speaker 4: Brooklyn trying to be a tough one eight hundred eight
- 25:11Speaker 4: four eight ninety two twenty two. If you're intending on
- 25:15Speaker 4: voting in one of these primaries in New Jersey today,
- 25:18Speaker 4: what race you're actually voting foreign? Who was the candidate
- 25:22Speaker 4: you want to see win in that specific town? But
- 25:25Speaker 4: of course the big one is California, and that's going
- 25:28Speaker 4: to feature three running for Mayor Nithia Rahman. She is
- 25:33Speaker 4: the DSA candidate for She's a city council member, the
- 25:37Speaker 4: incumbent mayor Karen Bass, and the celebrity superstar that we've
- 25:42Speaker 4: all fallen in love with, Spencer Pratt and last pole
- 25:46Speaker 4: I saw Noel And these polls keep changing. Have Pratt
- 25:50Speaker 4: in third. That's not going to work because in these
- 25:53Speaker 4: jungle primaries in California for both mayor and governor, only
- 25:59Speaker 4: the top two have a chance to move on, only
- 26:02Speaker 4: the top two. So this morning, it's a very very
- 26:05Speaker 4: tight race, like one percentage point apart, but Spencer Pratt
- 26:09Speaker 4: could easily end up behind the two ladies and not
- 26:12Speaker 4: even make it.
- 26:14Speaker 18: Yeah.
- 26:14Speaker 14: Well, I don't know if these poles are doing an
- 26:16Speaker 14: effective job of measuring his surge because it's the late
- 26:19Speaker 14: surge and that latest poll was a couple days ago already,
- 26:22Speaker 14: and they're only separated by points by like two three
- 26:25Speaker 14: points each, So I don't know. The polls mean a
- 26:28Speaker 14: whole lot, you know, going into this race. And then
- 26:31Speaker 14: there's another one in the governor's race, same sort of thing.
- 26:33Speaker 14: It's very close, So I can see Pratt's still pulling
- 26:37Speaker 14: this out of me. All he needs to do is
- 26:38Speaker 14: get second place and he's in for November.
- 26:41Speaker 4: Right. Well, here was Spencer Pratt yesterday on Fox News
- 26:45Speaker 4: and he's saying, look, he's not a Democrat, he's not
- 26:48Speaker 4: a Republican, he's not an independent. He's just a common
- 26:52Speaker 4: sense guy who believes he's got the answers to save
- 26:57Speaker 4: Los Angeles, but he said his supporters were mostly angry Democrats.
- 27:02Speaker 4: Lewis Spencer Pratt cut number eleven.
- 27:05Speaker 7: Rick Caruso seems like a Republican but ran as a Democrat.
- 27:08Speaker 4: How were you running?
- 27:09Speaker 12: Yeah, thankfully it's a nonpartisan race, so I don't have
- 27:11Speaker 12: to be either. I have probably are you. I'm a
- 27:15Speaker 12: retistered Republican, but my supporters are all Democrats because Los
- 27:18Speaker 12: Angeles is all Democrats. All the people financing me are Democrats,
- 27:22Speaker 12: all the meetings I take every day are Democrats. Democrats
- 27:25Speaker 12: are very angry with what happened to Los Angeles. They
- 27:28Speaker 12: were fed a bunch of lies by Mayor Bass, who
- 27:31Speaker 12: said she was gonna literally solve homelessness. She was gonna
- 27:34Speaker 12: do all these things she didn't do, so they all
- 27:37Speaker 12: of the people that put her actually in office are
- 27:39Speaker 12: now behind me. So it's a nonpartisan race. There's no
- 27:42Speaker 12: letter next to either of our names because the mayor
- 27:44Speaker 12: is not supposed to represent a party. They're supposed to
- 27:47Speaker 12: make you sure your moms are safe, your houses don't
- 27:50Speaker 12: burn down, and your tax money is going to your infrastructure,
- 27:52Speaker 12: not to fund drug addicts. So thankfully I have Republicans
- 27:56Speaker 12: that love me. I have Democrats who love me. I
- 27:58Speaker 12: have Independence love me. Even some socialists message me and
- 28:01Speaker 12: they're like, hey, don't be so mean to us, we
- 28:04Speaker 12: like you too. I'm like, sorry, I don't mess with
- 28:07Speaker 12: socialist right.
- 28:08Speaker 18: Yeah.
- 28:08Speaker 4: He actually also has the vote of the celebrities, which
- 28:11Speaker 4: he said publicly I don't want it, but he's got it.
- 28:14Speaker 4: People for example, like Leonardo DiCaprio. They are rushing to
- 28:17Speaker 4: vote for him. And Jamie Fox. I saw some other names.
- 28:20Speaker 4: So that is Spencer Pratt and again three way race.
- 28:25Speaker 4: It looks like in the governor's race, the gentleman that
- 28:28Speaker 4: President Trump endorsed, Steve Hilton, has a better chance of
- 28:33Speaker 4: getting to the final two maybe than Spencer Pratt does
- 28:36Speaker 4: in the mayor's race, although most people, most people I
- 28:39Speaker 4: speak to say that both will prevail. Both Steve Hilton
- 28:44Speaker 4: in the governor's race and Spencer Pratt in the mayor's race.
- 28:49Speaker 4: Both will end up prevailing in that jungle primary, and
- 28:52Speaker 4: both will have a shot in November. Any predictions known
- 28:55Speaker 4: this morning.
- 28:56Speaker 14: No, There's an Emerson College poll that was the last
- 28:58Speaker 14: one to come out ahead of this governor's race, and
- 29:01Speaker 14: it hads Tom Styer jumping over Steve Hilton.
- 29:04Speaker 4: Yeah, but I've seen Stire in fourth in a bunch
- 29:07Speaker 4: of poles now.
- 29:08Speaker 2: So, but they had it Besarah one.
- 29:11Speaker 14: Yeah, you know Stire two, and then in third place Hilton.
- 29:14Speaker 4: I think it's Besarah one Hilton too. But we'll see.
- 29:17Speaker 4: Let's grab some of these. I can tell if they're
- 29:19Speaker 4: lying or not, because, oh, when you call in, we
- 29:22Speaker 4: get to see the phone number. So if I see
- 29:24Speaker 4: two zero one, I know your New Jersey. If I
- 29:26Speaker 4: see nine zero eight, I know you're in New Jersey.
- 29:29Speaker 4: If I see nine seven three, I know you New Jersey.
- 29:32Speaker 4: You're calling it from seven one eight. You're not getting
- 29:34Speaker 4: on bottom line, So let's go to one line four.
- 29:38Speaker 4: This is a two zero one number. Good morning, How
- 29:41Speaker 4: are you?

- 30:00Speaker 4: specific election that you're voting for this morning?
- 30:04Speaker 22: Well, I'm very active. I'm a political county committee in
- 30:10Speaker 22: my town where one of twenty eight people and I
- 30:13Speaker 22: live in the town of Jefferson Township, even though it's
- 30:18Speaker 22: like a mailing address of Lake A. Packard and I
- 30:21Speaker 22: have been campaigning to run a candidate against the mayor
- 30:26Speaker 22: of our town. So I'm campaigning for Christian Baronco to
- 30:31Speaker 22: be a mayor in our town. But also I just
- 30:34Speaker 22: want to point out I'm containing campaigning against your candidate
- 30:38Speaker 22: of our jeff ur New Jersey Senate candidate. I'm campaigning
- 30:43Speaker 22: for Richard Tabor, not the pretty boy that you're supporting.
- 30:47Speaker 4: I'm on the air, why you hold were you holding
- 30:50Speaker 4: it against him because he's handsome.
- 30:52Speaker 23: I'm listening to all the candidates, and when I did,
- 30:58Speaker 23: I think Richard Tabor, the Newark black detective from Newark, Okay,
- 31:03Speaker 23: is a better choice against Corey Booker. Okay, but I
- 31:06Speaker 23: heard your support for.
- 31:08Speaker 15: The other fella.
- 31:08Speaker 22: I kind of was like, oh, I liked it so much,
- 31:11Speaker 22: but I just a am glad we have the opportunity
- 31:13Speaker 22: to get it out of shout out for Richard Taber.
- 31:16Speaker 4: Okay. Richard Tabor is your guy. Thank you very much
- 31:18Speaker 4: for the call. He's not going to win. Alex Za
- 31:20Speaker 4: Dan is my guy. He is all about freedom, whether
- 31:23Speaker 4: it's religious freedom, he's also about health freedom. We love
- 31:27Speaker 4: that he's all bore of the moms. He's a big
- 31:30Speaker 4: President Trump guy. He's pro Israel. Alex A Dan is
- 31:33Speaker 4: my guy. Line three is nine zero eight. Who go

- 31:42Speaker 4: Where do you live? Tom?
- 31:44Speaker 18: I live in.
- 31:45Speaker 24: Long Hill Township, that's in Morris County, New Jersey, Okay,
- 31:49Speaker 24: and les Democrat, sixty six years young. But I'm not
- 31:54Speaker 24: the same. It's not the party that I signed.
- 31:57Speaker 4: I was gonna say because people always say to me,
- 32:00Speaker 4: you know, say, do you think any Democrats listen to
- 32:02Speaker 4: your show? And I'm always told this is true now
- 32:05Speaker 4: by politicians all over the city, including Frank Morano, who's
- 32:09Speaker 4: a member of our city Council here in New York,
- 32:11Speaker 4: that plenty of Democrats listen to you. So you're a
- 32:14Speaker 4: lifelong Democrat, you're listening. So maybe they're right.
- 32:18Speaker 24: Well, I'm trying to find a candidate that's best for
- 32:21Speaker 24: the Republican Party on a Democratic side. Actually, and I
- 32:24Speaker 24: got some negative campaign ad from this person called a
- 32:27Speaker 24: woman called Bennett, and she's got a maga hat on
- 32:30Speaker 24: and it's a Democratic camp negative ad. If you don't
- 32:34Speaker 24: want to stand up, you know, for her values. Vote
- 32:37Speaker 24: don't vote for her. So you know I'm going to
- 32:39Speaker 24: vote for her. And it's chat GPT who's the best,
- 32:45Speaker 24: who's the best on the Democratic side for the Republicans.
- 32:49Speaker 24: You know, Spartacus has got it locked up. You can't
- 32:51Speaker 24: touch any of that.
- 32:52Speaker 6: So I was just gonna go in there.
- 32:53Speaker 24: And pull one lever.
- 32:54Speaker 4: All right, fair enough, Now he does probably haven't locked up.
- 32:56Speaker 4: I agree with you. He'll be very, very tough to beat.
- 32:58Speaker 4: He's he's like AOC. He's the more he really is.
- 33:01Speaker 4: He's a moron. He's done nothing for the state of
- 33:03Speaker 4: New Jersey. I mean nothing for the state of New Jersey.
- 33:05Speaker 4: He talks a lot. He loves to talk. Remember he
- 33:07Speaker 4: spoke for like twenty seven consecutive hours one day, but
- 33:11Speaker 4: he says nothing. One more. We'll go to well Lye two.
- 33:13Speaker 4: That's a Jersey area code nine seven to three. Hello,
- 33:17Speaker 4: good morning, how are you hello? Are you on the air? Yes, sir,
- 33:28Speaker 4: you're on the air, sir. He's having a very difficult
- 33:31Speaker 4: time with this. All right, thank you very much. And
- 33:33Speaker 4: this is why I don't take calls. Okay, It's not
- 33:36Speaker 4: like I haven't heard other shows that take calls and
- 33:38Speaker 4: the same thing doesn't happen, same exact thing happened.
- 33:41Speaker 25: Nice Jersey. Wait, all right, thank you very much for
- 33:48Speaker 25: what's going on out there. What else is happening in
- 33:51Speaker 25: the world today, and we need to know?
- 33:53Speaker 2: I think we covered most everything.
- 33:57Speaker 14: The only thing I can think is the big local
- 33:58Speaker 14: story that everybody's talking about is these sewer people. Have
- 34:01Speaker 14: you asserved the story of the sewer people that are
- 34:03Speaker 14: seen going in and out of sewers in Brooklyn?
- 34:06Speaker 4: No, I haven't seen that.
- 34:07Speaker 14: So there's these crews that have been spotted over the
- 34:09Speaker 14: last couple of weeks with lights on their foreheads like
- 34:12Speaker 14: they're going into a coal mine, and then shovels in
- 34:15Speaker 14: their hand, and so people were freaked out.
- 34:18Speaker 2: They sent that video to the NYPD.
- 34:20Speaker 14: Over the weekend, the NYPD was checking out these sewer
- 34:23Speaker 14: holes they were seen coming out of and they didn't
- 34:26Speaker 14: see anything sinister going on.
- 34:28Speaker 2: But they haven't caught up with any of these crew members.
- 34:30Speaker 14: But what they decided, and they think is probably the
- 34:32Speaker 14: case because they've seen this before, is these crews are
- 34:35Speaker 14: going into the sewer looking for valuables, so valuable, Yes,
- 34:39Speaker 14: I guess who knew that you could get valuables down
- 34:42Speaker 14: below in the sewer, But apparently that's the case. It's
- 34:44Speaker 14: been going on for decades. This is not the first
- 34:46Speaker 14: crew of people seen to go down below in the sewer.
- 34:49Speaker 14: But that's the answer they're giving anyway, is that that
- 34:52Speaker 14: nothing terrible, This is not terror related to just people
- 34:55Speaker 14: looking to make money.
- 34:56Speaker 4: So I'm wondering if in your great show every day
- 35:00Speaker 4: for this show, Norm Layden does a terrific show five
- 35:03Speaker 4: to six. It's the best one hour news show, not
- 35:06Speaker 4: just in New York, but I believe across the country.
- 35:09Speaker 4: We are now one day away from the NBA Finals.
- 35:12Speaker 4: Nikoboker's in San Antonio, Game one coming up tomorrow night.
- 35:16Speaker 4: Did not make the top five on your show today,
- 35:18Speaker 4: Well tomorrow, I'm sure.
- 35:20Speaker 14: With the NBA Finals they did not make the top
- 35:22Speaker 14: five today, but of course they will admit tomorrow because
- 35:24Speaker 14: Wednesday night's Game one.
- 35:26Speaker 4: Game one tomorrow night. I'm still waiting to heal back
- 35:28Speaker 4: from my dear friend Keith Cantell, who called me twice
- 35:31Speaker 4: on Sunday and said, hey, I've got a private plane
- 35:33Speaker 4: and Ben Stiller is going to be on the plane,
- 35:36Speaker 4: and Spike Lee's going to be on the plane, and
- 35:38Speaker 4: you're going to be on the plane, said, because we're
- 35:40Speaker 4: going to San Antonio Wednesday night for Game one. You
- 35:43Speaker 4: know I got to call yesterday. You know Joe PAGs
- 35:46Speaker 4: You know that name, right, guys. So he's a really,
- 35:49Speaker 4: really big time radio guy. In fact, on the Talkers
- 35:52Speaker 4: magazine list last year of the heavy hundred hosts in
- 35:56Speaker 4: the country, on which I figured, I finished up at
- 35:59Speaker 4: number thirteen, which is nothing short of a miracle because
- 36:02Speaker 4: we're not syndicated. All these other shows that beat me,
- 36:06Speaker 4: Sean Hannity, Mark Levin, Brian Kilmead, they're on hundreds of stations.
- 36:10Speaker 4: Brian kill Me two hundred and ten, Sean Hannity seven
- 36:14Speaker 4: hundred and fifteen. I'm on one now. Yes, people listen
- 36:17Speaker 4: to me all over the world because of the app.
- 36:19Speaker 4: You can download the free app seventy seven WABC and
- 36:23Speaker 4: right now, right now, I've got people listening in probably
- 36:26Speaker 4: nine or ten different countries, including Israel and all over
- 36:29Speaker 4: the United States as well. But the truth is we're
- 36:32Speaker 4: not syndicated. But Paggs he finished at number seven. He's
- 36:36Speaker 4: a big time guy. He's Shawan Hannity's really good Buddy
- 36:40Speaker 4: and his show is stationed in San Antonio, so he
- 36:45Speaker 4: wants me to come on tomorrow to talk about mom,
- 36:47Speaker 4: Donnie and the issues in New York. And I said, hey, Joe,
- 36:50Speaker 4: and I know you're in San Antonio. How about Nick Spurs?
- 36:55Speaker 4: And he said, oh, yeah, we got to get into that.
- 36:56Speaker 4: You know, Spurs are gonna win and we'll get back
- 36:59Speaker 4: and forth on that one. But a lot of Nick
- 37:01Speaker 4: fans are very, very very confident. That scares me. Okay,
- 37:06Speaker 4: a lot of Nick fans who have watched the Knicks
- 37:09Speaker 4: lose in the last two finals appearances nineteen ninety four
- 37:13Speaker 4: to the Houston Rockets nineteen ninety nine to those same
- 37:17Speaker 4: San Antonio Spurs, and now they feel like nobody can
- 37:20Speaker 4: beat the Knicks. Not Magic Johnson's Lakers, not Larry Birds Celtics,
- 37:24Speaker 4: not Michael Jordan's Bulls, not Bill russell Celtics. Nobody can
- 37:28Speaker 4: beat the Knicks. Even Michael Rappaport, the brilliant comedian and actor,
- 37:33Speaker 4: dear dear friend of mine who liked me spoke it
- 37:36Speaker 4: yesterday's Jerusalem post conference. Even Mike, he's like Beningo. He
- 37:41Speaker 4: never thinks the Knicks are gonna win now, He's like, oh,
- 37:43Speaker 4: Knicks are gonna win. In fact, here it is Michael
- 37:46Speaker 4: Rappaport's instagram from yesterday. Lewis. This is cut number twelve,
- 37:50Speaker 4: another very confident Nick fan.
- 37:53Speaker 26: I'm gonna say something I have never said out loud
- 37:56Speaker 26: that I have never actually thought in my life.
- 38:00Speaker 2: I Google me, fact check me, look it up.
- 38:03Speaker 27: The New York Knicks are going to win the nb
- 38:08Speaker 27: A Championship. What a relief it is to say that
- 38:13Speaker 27: and believe it and to feel it from the tippy
- 38:15Speaker 27: tippy tip of my toes to the top of my
- 38:19Speaker 27: dome piece. The New York Knicks are going to win
- 38:21Speaker 27: the NBA Championship.
- 38:23Speaker 28: I knew in ninety four we weren't gonna win, and
- 38:25Speaker 28: then OJ Game seven, I knew.
- 38:28Speaker 26: We weren't gonna beat the Spurs in ninety nine. And
- 38:33Speaker 26: that frenchman, that French freak, he's full blown. He's a problem.
- 38:39Speaker 26: The Spurs are an issue. It ain't gonna be easy,
- 38:42Speaker 26: it shouldn't be easy. But we got this big body bunching.
- 38:49Speaker 26: We got this.
- 38:50Speaker 28: The New York Knicks are going to win the NBA Championship.
- 38:54Speaker 28: And I know I'm possibly setting myself up for heartbreak
- 38:59Speaker 28: and scars and lesions that are probably never ever, ever,
- 39:03Speaker 28: ever ever be able to recover from if somehow, some way,
- 39:08Speaker 28: the Knicks don't win the NBA Championship in a few weeks.
- 39:12Speaker 26: But I don't feel that. I don't believe that the
- 39:16Speaker 26: Knicks are going to win the NBA Championship and New
- 39:21Speaker 26: York City is going to go Ape Ape Giggity go
- 39:27Speaker 26: New York Go, New York Go.
- 39:31Speaker 4: Giggity go New York Go, New York Go. So that
- 39:34Speaker 4: makes me nervous when people like Michael Rappaport are that confident,
- 39:38Speaker 4: because again, we've seen the Knicks get to the finals
- 39:41Speaker 4: twice since nineteen seventy three, they haven't won. They haven't
- 39:45Speaker 4: won a championship in fifty three years. San Antonio, they won. Now,
- 39:49Speaker 4: it's not the same team. It's not the same guys, right,
- 39:52Speaker 4: This is Webin Yama. It's not Dave Tim Duncan. It's
- 39:56Speaker 4: not David Robinson. It's not Manwjenobley or Tony Parker or
- 40:00Speaker 4: Big Shot Bob. I know that, But that organization San Antonio,
- 40:05Speaker 4: they're used to winning all those years with Greg Popovich,
- 40:08Speaker 4: were not. Again, that means nothing. Tomorrow night, when Jalen
- 40:11Speaker 4: brunts in and towns and bridges and our guys hit
- 40:14Speaker 4: the court. But I just be careful. Fifty three years
- 40:18Speaker 4: is a long time now. We have been the most
- 40:21Speaker 4: dominant team in the playoffs. It's not even close. Eleven
- 40:25Speaker 4: consecutive wins. Most of those wins in blowout fashions. A
- 40:29Speaker 4: lot of those games were over in the second quarter,
- 40:32Speaker 4: second quarter against Atlanta, Philadelphia, and Cleveland. This San Antonio
- 40:37Speaker 4: team is light years better. Listen to me carefully. I
- 40:41Speaker 4: watch the NBA all year long. They are light years
- 40:44Speaker 4: better than any of the three teams we just beat.
- 40:48Speaker 4: So it's one thing, though, if he came back from
- 40:49Speaker 4: twenty two to beat Cleveland in Game one of the
- 40:52Speaker 4: Eastern Conference Finals, so we have been in a position
- 40:55Speaker 4: where we were down a lot of points and still
- 40:57Speaker 4: came back in won. But these games are not going
- 40:59Speaker 4: to be I'm telling you, the Knicks are not gonna
- 41:02Speaker 4: beat the Spurs by thirty five. So I'm looking forward
- 41:06Speaker 4: to see how the Knicks operate in games because I
- 41:09Speaker 4: think all the game is going to be close. Either
- 41:11Speaker 4: we can win. I'm not picking against the Knicks, But
- 41:14Speaker 4: when everybody starts to say everybody even Nick fans. I
- 41:19Speaker 4: think we're never gonna win. We got this, we got this,
- 41:22Speaker 4: we got this. Makes me a little nervous. Tomorrow night.
- 41:26Speaker 4: We'll find out. Here we go, there, let's go. They're
- 41:28Speaker 4: gonna beat this team. You say the Knicks are gonna wind. Yeah, yeah,
- 41:33Speaker 4: I don't have nearly the same out of competence what
- 41:35Speaker 4: I've seen. It doesn't matter what you saw. Those three
- 41:39Speaker 4: teams are nowhere near as good as san Antonio. This
- 41:42Speaker 4: is not This is not Philadelphia. Atlanta is a much
- 41:45Speaker 4: different animal.
- 41:46Speaker 20: The Knicks are are a different team too.
- 41:48Speaker 4: That's it.
- 41:49Speaker 20: This is a team I've never seen.
- 41:51Speaker 6: True.
- 41:51Speaker 4: No, don't listen, no argument. So you're part of that crew.
- 41:54Speaker 4: There's no way you can see the Knicks losing this series.
- 41:57Speaker 4: Don't see it? Know what about you don't?
- 42:00Speaker 14: I have been watching Weba and boy the next stop him.
- 42:03Speaker 14: He's a beast, who's no one's stopping him?
- 42:06Speaker 4: The problem well, you know, but if the rest of
- 42:08Speaker 4: the Knick team outs, of course, the rest of san
- 42:10Speaker 4: Antonio's team, then Webinyama can get his thirty five. We
- 42:13Speaker 4: can still win. But it's a much different animal. Listen,
- 42:18Speaker 4: I think we're gonna win, but this idea that there's
- 42:20Speaker 4: no way this team is losing. That that's ridiculous. Spurs
- 42:24Speaker 4: not how you lose series. We have that type of confidence. Well,
- 42:28Speaker 4: I know, but fans are being silly. To compare San
- 42:31Speaker 4: Antonio to Philly or Atlanta or Cleveland is just dumb.
- 42:35Speaker 4: It's not close.
- 42:36Speaker 20: You heard that they were gonna sweep these last two series.
- 42:39Speaker 4: You would say that's no, You're a hundred percent right
- 42:41Speaker 4: on hundred percent right. But again, these teams are not
- 42:43Speaker 4: even close to San Antonio. So I want them to win.
- 42:47Speaker 4: I think they're gonna win, but I'm not going in
- 42:48Speaker 4: with this idea that no, no, nobody can beat the Knicks.
- 42:51Speaker 20: I didn't say that either.
- 42:53Speaker 4: Well, Minicon, you say nobody could beat.
- 42:56Speaker 20: The next I'm looking at right now, these two teams.
- 42:59Speaker 20: The Knicks gonna beat this team. Okay, That's all I'm saying.
- 43:03Speaker 4: And I think everybody's with you, I really do. I
- 43:06Speaker 4: think I've heard nobody in New York. I haven't heard
- 43:09Speaker 4: anybody in New York pick against the Knicks. Nobody. I'm
- 43:13Speaker 4: not picking against them either, just see, you know, but
- 43:15Speaker 4: I'm a lot more nervous. I've never either of I.
- 43:20Speaker 20: They all of them. I think Benigno said it, you
- 43:23Speaker 20: could pick eight guys to take the last shot, and
- 43:25Speaker 20: I'm happy with all of them.
- 43:27Speaker 4: Even Landry Shame coming off the bench. You got a
- 43:30Speaker 4: lot of guys. Oh we'll see, so can't you. It's
- 43:33Speaker 4: if you're out there and not gotten the call. I
- 43:36Speaker 4: got a couple of calls on Sunday, one call yesterday
- 43:39Speaker 4: morning about this potential San Antonio trip tomorrow night. So
- 43:44Speaker 4: if it's still on, let me know. That'll be fun.
- 43:48Speaker 4: Game one on the road in San Antonio. Knicks and
- 43:51Speaker 4: Spurs coming up tomorrow night.
- 43:54Speaker 3: Sid and Friends in the morning on the Red Apple
- 43:57Speaker 3: podcast Network.
- 44:00Speaker 4: Some very comfortable, beautiful late spring early summer days ahead,
- 44:05Speaker 4: and Los Angeles is pretty much the center of the
- 44:09Speaker 4: country today. Everybody watching what's going to happen with Spencer
- 44:14Speaker 4: Pratt has run for mayor and believe Barado is calling Lewis,
- 44:17Speaker 4: and then Steve Hilton has run for governor and we
- 44:22Speaker 4: talked about it this morning. That seems to be a
- 44:25Speaker 4: very tight three way race between the incumbent Karen Bess,
- 44:30Speaker 4: who's done a horrendous job, Spencer Pratt, who is the
- 44:34Speaker 4: new darling of the media, and then this other lady
- 44:39Speaker 4: who has been edging Spencer in a lot of these polls.
- 44:43Speaker 4: She happens to be the DSA candidate, Nathia Rahman. She's
- 44:49Speaker 4: Mamdanie with a vagina. And that's your race out there
- 44:53Speaker 4: in California. Are we going to know today normal or
- 44:56Speaker 4: they're gonna be the Shenatigans where it's going to be
- 44:58Speaker 4: so close and we're not gonna find out tonight. We're
- 45:01Speaker 4: going to know tonight who won these primaries.
- 45:04Speaker 2: Yeah, I don't see why we went.
- 45:05Speaker 14: I mean, you're not going to get a huge number
- 45:06Speaker 14: of people rushing to the polls for a June second primary.
- 45:10Speaker 4: Just doesn't happen, not even out there, huh, not all
- 45:12Speaker 4: the press that's getting in Trump's and joins Minson Fox.
- 45:15Speaker 2: News every day.
- 45:16Speaker 14: I think you'll get larger numbers than you normally would
- 45:19Speaker 14: for a June primary, but you know, don't expect anything astronomical.
- 45:23Speaker 4: This Jackson Dodt story not going away anytime soon. The
- 45:26Speaker 4: football giant quarterback who introduced President Trump at Mike Lawler's
- 45:30Speaker 4: Great Rockland County event two Fridays ago, and Laura Trump
- 45:35Speaker 4: had her father in law on her show, which is

- 45:45Speaker 4: football coach, great football coach at Auburn University. That wasn't
- 45:50Speaker 4: his only stop yet other great coaching stays, but his
- 45:53Speaker 4: most famous was Auburn, most recently a senator in the
- 45:58Speaker 4: great state of Alabama, now running for governor of Alabama.
- 46:01Speaker 4: Tommy Tuboville, I love Tommy, He chimed in yesterday on
- 46:05Speaker 4: the whole Jackson dart Abdual Quarter New York football giant
- 46:10Speaker 4: situation as well. So I want to get to all

- 47:12Speaker 21: The Diamond in Seattle, the Mets lost thirty two and
- 47:14Speaker 21: ten innings to the Manners in the opener of a
- 47:16Speaker 21: three game inter league series. Up next for the Mets,
- 47:19Speaker 21: they have yet to announce the starter for tonight's middle
- 47:21Speaker 21: game against the Mariners, but are expected to use an
- 47:22Speaker 21: opener for turning to a bulk believer, as they.
- 47:25Speaker 4: Did last night.
- 47:25Speaker 21: First pitch from Seattle, the scheduled for nine to forty.
- 47:28Speaker 21: As for the Yankees, they were off yesterday. They picking
- 47:31Speaker 21: up a series against the Cleveland Guardians today back at

- 47:37Speaker 21: of this three game set. First pitch tonight seven oh

- 47:42Speaker 21: tonight as well, eight pm for the Golden Knights and
- 47:46Speaker 21: the Hurricanes out in Carolina, and a lot of movement
- 47:49Speaker 21: around the NFL. Yesterday, the Cleveland Browns traded two time
- 47:51Speaker 21: NFL Defensive Player of the Year Miles Garrett to the
- 47:54Speaker 21: La Rams for two time Pro ball pass rusher Jared
- 47:56Speaker 21: Verse and multiple draft picks.
- 47:58Speaker 19: Announced yesday.
- 47:58Speaker 4: I didn't know, Oh that's you. That's a block bucks huge,
- 48:01Speaker 4: Yeah he did. Don't forget last year break the sack record.
- 48:04Speaker 21: Yeah, it could be the biggest trade up to this
- 48:07Speaker 21: point involving a defensive player in man.
- 48:09Speaker 4: Yeah. Both great though, yeah, versus great too, but not
- 48:11Speaker 4: as good.
- 48:12Speaker 21: As Miles Garrett is Miles Garrett, he's a superstar.
- 48:15Speaker 4: So he goes to the Rams and every year the
- 48:17Speaker 4: Rams are right there, yep, right there, that great offense.
- 48:20Speaker 4: They got a anti semi to maybe the best wide
- 48:22Speaker 4: receiver went football and for cool yep. But that's a
- 48:25Speaker 4: really good football team, very good and they buyouts better
- 48:27Speaker 4: got it.
- 48:28Speaker 15: Wow.
- 48:28Speaker 21: And the Browns got a haul too, receive a first
- 48:30Speaker 21: round draft pick in twenty twenty seven, a second round
- 48:32Speaker 21: pick at twenty twenty eight, and a third rounder in
- 48:34Speaker 21: twenty twenty nine. And then we heard about this yesterday
- 48:38Speaker 21: as well. Not as much of a surprise, obviously, but
- 48:40Speaker 21: the Philadelphia Eagles agreed to trade star wide receiver A J.
- 48:43Speaker 21: Brown to the Patriots for a first round pick in
- 48:45Speaker 21: twenty twenty eight and a twenty twenty seven.
- 48:47Speaker 4: We knew that already, though, yes we did. We actually
- 48:49Speaker 4: knew the team the whole thing.
- 48:50Speaker 21: Yeah, we just didn't know exactly what year these picks
- 48:52Speaker 21: would be in, if it would be a first round pick.
- 48:54Speaker 21: I think the Eagles are happy they got a first
- 48:56Speaker 21: rounder in twenty eight and then we'll see what happens
- 48:59Speaker 21: with you.
- 48:59Speaker 4: So you got them who are a legitimate Super Bowl
- 49:03Speaker 4: contender every year, getting one of the best defensive players ever. Yes,
- 49:07Speaker 4: and you got the Patriots who were in the Super
- 49:09Speaker 4: Bowl last year. They were pathetic, they got blown out
- 49:13Speaker 4: by Seattle, but they got there. And now you give
- 49:16Speaker 4: the third year quarterback Drake Man A J. Brown. Yep,
- 49:20Speaker 4: big two big deals.
- 49:20Speaker 21: It's a big step for the Patriots in terms of,
- 49:23Speaker 21: you know, getting over that hump that clue.
- 49:25Speaker 4: I wouldn't use that, not after the mic Vable situation.
- 49:30Speaker 6: There.
- 49:30Speaker 4: I did pretty good.
- 49:31Speaker 21: Oh yeah, yeah, all right, that's your sports sponsor by
- 49:33Speaker 21: Pete Morgan a pilos Porlers go to pilospoilers dot com
- 49:36Speaker 21: to fund a dealing. Are you pilos Polo's whole World's
- 49:37Speaker 21: best bill Bowlers? I'm justin alic on seventy seven WABSA.
- 49:41Speaker 3: Sid and Friends in the Morning on the Red Apple
- 49:44Speaker 3: podcast network.
- 49:47Speaker 29: Moving to the Office of Community Safety, the executive plan
- 49:50Speaker 29: included transfers of funding from existing departments and new funding
- 49:54Speaker 29: to create the Office of Community Safety. Have any program
- 49:57Speaker 29: shifted from the NYPD's purview to OCA?
- 50:00Speaker 18: Yes? No.
- 50:02Speaker 29: To what extent is NYPD engage with the administration and
- 50:05Speaker 29: what specific roles and coordination will occur between NYPD and OCS.
- 50:10Speaker 30: Those conversations have not yet commenced.
- 50:15Speaker 29: So the administration's announcement of an approximately two hundred and
- 50:19Speaker 29: sixty million dollars for the creation of OCS, there have
- 50:22Speaker 29: been no conversations with NYPD about the agency and who
- 50:26Speaker 29: will be doing what.
- 50:28Speaker 30: Not at this time. I believe, I mean, I expect
- 50:30Speaker 30: that those conversations will begin to occur. But as I
- 50:35Speaker 30: mentioned before in response to the last question, no program,
- 50:39Speaker 30: no programmatic responsibility is being shifted from the NYPD two.
- 50:46Speaker 4: So here's what you had. Tish spent four hours four
- 50:51Speaker 4: before the City Council defending the NYPD budget. She talked
- 50:56Speaker 4: about all the success the NYPD is having made drops
- 51:00Speaker 4: in murders, shootings, robberies and other crimes. But according to
- 51:06Speaker 4: Frank Morano, the amazing city councilmen and former colleague here
- 51:10Speaker 4: at WABC, the biggest story was not crime statistics. It
- 51:15Speaker 4: was Tish revealing that despite Mayor Mamdani spending two hundred
- 51:19Speaker 4: and sixty million dollars on a new Office of Community Safety,
- 51:25Speaker 4: the NYPD has not yet had any substantive maybe not
- 51:29Speaker 4: at all, no discussions about how it would work, while
- 51:33Speaker 4: also announcing plans to hire hundreds of additional police officers,
- 51:39Speaker 4: putting I believe Tush. Tish, I should say, had odds
- 51:43Speaker 4: again with the mayor's original campaign promises. So it does
- 51:47Speaker 4: look like despite Mamdannie the boss, he's the boss, right,
- 51:51Speaker 4: He's Tish's boss. Bottom line, he's her boss. It looks like,
- 51:55Speaker 4: despite the fact that Mamdannie is the boss, that Tish
- 51:59Speaker 4: is one of the show here. He is City Councilman.
- 52:03Speaker 4: Frank Morano, the great one. Frank, good morning, buddy, how
- 52:06Speaker 4: are you.
- 52:07Speaker 6: Good morning, Sid. It's great to be back. Thank you
- 52:09Speaker 6: for having me. As always, I had the privilege of
- 52:11Speaker 6: attending the Republican Jewish Coalition event that's run by your
- 52:16Speaker 6: cousin Norm Coleman the other night. It was a great night,
- 52:18Speaker 6: but it struck me because almost everybody in the room
- 52:21Speaker 6: was talking about you that you definitely are one of
- 52:24Speaker 6: the most prominent Republican Jewish folks in New York City.
- 52:27Speaker 6: And then Friday there's the Talkers Conference and it's down
- 52:31Speaker 6: in Long Island. I don't know that you're going to
- 52:33Speaker 6: make it there. I think you're at a different stage
- 52:35Speaker 6: in your radio career these days. But everybody who's coming
- 52:38Speaker 6: in from out of the country to be at that
- 52:40Speaker 6: event is talking about you, Sid Rosenberg, and I was thinking,
- 52:44Speaker 6: there are so few people in radio or politics that
- 52:49Speaker 6: could not even be in the room and they're still
- 52:52Speaker 6: dominating both conversations, and hats.
- 52:55Speaker 19: Off to you.
- 52:56Speaker 6: You know, I know what it takes to do a
- 52:57Speaker 6: good radio show, especially for one for four and well
- 53:01Speaker 6: at least I know what picks to do a radio show,
- 53:03Speaker 6: and of the amount of work that goes into it,
- 53:05Speaker 6: and people should make no mistake that just because you
- 53:09Speaker 6: make it sound effortless. You're putting in a ton of work,
- 53:12Speaker 6: and it's amazing to me that you're at as many
- 53:14Speaker 6: places as you are. So it's a really frick You'll
- 53:17Speaker 6: be talking to you again.
- 53:17Speaker 4: Well, thank you. I appreciate that. I know that Heavy
- 53:20Speaker 4: one hundred list is. That's very nice, Frank, and you're
- 53:22Speaker 4: a very talented guy too. That list is coming out,
- 53:24Speaker 4: I think next week. I'm not going to be there
- 53:26Speaker 4: on Friday. Tomorrow is tomorrow. Michael Harrison's upset with me.
- 53:30Speaker 4: He said, I know you kind of you kind of
- 53:32Speaker 4: went past us, but I'm not doing that. I'm not
- 53:36Speaker 4: treating Michael Harrison with any disrespect. I love him. I
- 53:39Speaker 4: love that conference. In fact, I'm going to be on
- 53:41Speaker 4: Joe Pagg's Big Time radio show in Texas tomorrow. He's
- 53:45Speaker 4: number seven on that Heavy hundred list. He's going to
- 53:48Speaker 4: be at Hopstra on Friday. And the funny thing about
- 53:51Speaker 4: the RJAC dinner is, as you mentioned, my first cousin,
- 53:53Speaker 4: Norm Coleman, who I love desperately, he runs out with
- 53:56Speaker 4: my friend Matt Brooks, so they send out a bunch
- 53:59Speaker 4: of flyers. Hey, after you watched I'm on the flyer right,
- 54:03Speaker 4: I'm on the fire But no one person from the
- 54:05Speaker 4: RJC called me, contacted me, asked me to speak, So
- 54:09Speaker 4: I didn't go.
- 54:10Speaker 6: Yeah, I was shocked. I figured, you know, you had
- 54:13Speaker 6: something else to do a long day because it was
- 54:15Speaker 6: the parade.
- 54:15Speaker 4: And then no, I did. I mean the Jerusalem Post
- 54:19Speaker 4: where I spoke yesterday. That was a big deal. They
- 54:21Speaker 4: also mobbed me like I'm Trump. The people go nuts
- 54:24Speaker 4: when I walk in. They had a Gallas Sunday and
- 54:27Speaker 4: I didn't go to that. I would have gone to
- 54:28Speaker 4: the RJC. You were there, Bruce Blateman, my cousin Norm,
- 54:31Speaker 4: but no one contacted me. But nevertheless, I know it
- 54:34Speaker 4: was a great night. I'm glad you were there. Let's
- 54:37Speaker 4: get though to the to this meeting yesterday. Now are
- 54:41Speaker 4: you are you part of one of these committees? What
- 54:43Speaker 4: is your role in all this?
- 54:44Speaker 6: So yesterday there was so this is the budget. We're
- 54:47Speaker 6: negotiating the budget now, and I'm on the Finance committee.
- 54:50Speaker 6: And I'm proud that Staten Island has spot on the
- 54:52Speaker 6: Finance committee. And I'm proud to be a Republican on
- 54:54Speaker 6: the Finance committee. But so I'm there every day and
- 54:58Speaker 6: the Finance Committee is doing joint committee meetings with everybody.
- 55:02Speaker 6: After I hang up with you, I'm heading into City Hall.
- 55:04Speaker 6: We're doing a Finance committee and Criminal Justice which I'm
- 55:07Speaker 6: also on. We're going to question the Correction Commissioner. But
- 55:10Speaker 6: yesterday was a big, big day, the day that all
- 55:13Speaker 6: the council members want to mug for the cameras. Even
- 55:16Speaker 6: the co chair of the Public Safety Committee, Oswald Police, said,
- 55:21Speaker 6: we almost have enough city council members year too, you know,
- 55:25Speaker 6: to have a full city council meeting. That's true. A
- 55:27Speaker 6: lot of people showed up, so any city council member
- 55:30Speaker 6: can participate in these hearings. So the Finance Committee has
- 55:34Speaker 6: to be there basically, and so does the Criminal Justice Committee,
- 55:37Speaker 6: but any council member can go. And because Jessica Tish
- 55:40Speaker 6: was there and all of the drama involving the police
- 55:42Speaker 6: department and everything else, everybody made sure to show up
- 55:46Speaker 6: so the speaker she could certainly participate. And when she's there,
- 55:50Speaker 6: she usually gets the not usually she always gets the
- 55:52Speaker 6: opportunity to ask the first question, and you know she did.
- 55:56Speaker 6: And the headline in yesterday's hearing and your friend Commissioner Titian.
- 56:02Speaker 6: I'm a great admirer of hers as well. She did
- 56:04Speaker 6: very well. She came in and made a very strong
- 56:07Speaker 6: case that the NYPD is doing its job, that murders
- 56:10Speaker 6: it down, shootings are down, robberies are down. And she
- 56:12Speaker 6: announced something that I didn't think we'd be seeing in
- 56:15Speaker 6: the mom donni era, quite frankly, that the department is
- 56:18Speaker 6: actually going to be hiring more officers, which is good news.
- 56:23Speaker 6: But speaker men in. She did exactly what a speaker
- 56:26Speaker 6: is supposed to do, especially one that's at odds with
- 56:29Speaker 6: the current mayor, and she asked the tough oversight questions.
- 56:32Speaker 6: And I think one of the most revealing moments was
- 56:35Speaker 6: what you just played when she pressed the commissioner about
- 56:38Speaker 6: Mayor Mom Donnie's new two hundred and sixty million dollar
- 56:43Speaker 6: Office of Community Safety, and the answer was, I think
- 56:47Speaker 6: the only description for it is startling. There really hasn't
- 56:51Speaker 6: been meaningful coordination yet between the NYPD and this brand
- 56:57Speaker 6: new office.
- 56:57Speaker 4: You know, you say meaningful coordination, As far as I
- 57:01Speaker 4: heard good up, meaningful, even not meaningful, there's been none. Zero.
- 57:07Speaker 6: So you got to ask yourself the question, if you're
- 57:09Speaker 6: spending a quarter billion dollars on a public safety initiative.
- 57:14Speaker 6: You'd think the police department would know exactly how it
- 57:18Speaker 6: fits into the picture. So this whole department, which Mom
- 57:21Speaker 6: Donnie campaigned on, it's a disaster even before it gets
- 57:24Speaker 6: started to use it, said Rosenberg. Favorite. The other issue
- 57:28Speaker 6: is the numbers. And if there's one issue where maybe
- 57:32Speaker 6: I thought there was one weakness in Commissioner Tish's testimony,
- 57:35Speaker 6: it was maybe this. The commissioner testified that hate crimes
- 57:38Speaker 6: are down, but the NYPD's own CompStat website, which people
- 57:42Speaker 6: can look up for themselves, shows that hate crimes are
- 57:45Speaker 6: up more than seven percent year to day. And Speaker
- 57:48Speaker 6: men and I thought was right to ask for clarification
- 57:51Speaker 6: because New Yorkers, you know, we deserve one set of numbers,
- 57:54Speaker 6: not different numbers depending on which reporting period you're looking at.
- 57:57Speaker 6: So my takeaway was that Jessica's she's doing a solid
- 58:01Speaker 6: job running the police department politically putting on my commentators
- 58:04Speaker 6: at she did really the impossible yesterday, which she made
- 58:07Speaker 6: herself and the department look good while making the mayor
- 58:12Speaker 6: look bad, which many police commissioners have tried to do.
- 58:16Speaker 6: Bratton tried to do it with Juliani was not successful.
- 58:19Speaker 6: And this is the first time in modern history that
- 58:22Speaker 6: I've seen a commissioner acquitting themselves and their department very
- 58:26Speaker 6: well while making clear that their mayor is totally out
- 58:30Speaker 6: to lunch. And I think the speaker is doing a
- 58:33Speaker 6: solid job conducting oversight. And the person who didn't come
- 58:35Speaker 6: out looking great yesterday was obviously Zoron Mamdani. The hearing
- 58:40Speaker 6: raised real questions about whether city Hall has a coherent
- 58:43Speaker 6: public safety strategy beyond just letting Jessica Tish do her thing.
- 58:47Speaker 6: And to me, the answer is that it doesn't. And
- 58:49Speaker 6: you could tell that by the coverage today you've seen
- 58:51Speaker 6: in the left wing publications like Hellgate. They're killing Mom
- 58:55Speaker 6: Donnie because they're allowing more police officers to be hired
- 59:00Speaker 6: leaning publications and the so called, you know, unbiased publications
- 59:03Speaker 6: like AM New York. They also don't paint a good
- 59:06Speaker 6: picture of what Mom Donnie's doing with policing. So not
- 59:09Speaker 6: a good day for Mayor Mom Donnie. But the fact
- 59:11Speaker 6: that by and large shootings et cetera are down is
- 59:14Speaker 6: a good day for New York.
- 59:15Speaker 4: No question about it. And you know, you get these
- 59:18Speaker 4: moronic X cops who do lousy podcast and nobody listens
- 59:22Speaker 4: to them. They're out there every day on Twitter saying
- 59:24Speaker 4: Titsh is quitting and she's not. You know, I speak
- 59:27Speaker 4: to Jessica a lot, spoke to her Sunday. I think
- 59:29Speaker 4: I spoke to her yesterday, but definitely Sunday. He's not
- 59:31Speaker 4: quitting anytime soon, but she is clearly not operating. I
- 59:35Speaker 4: love this about her from a place of intimidation. Go
- 59:39Speaker 4: back to last week when the mayor set up there
- 59:42Speaker 4: and said I'm not marching in Sunday's parade. I campaigned
- 59:46Speaker 4: on that I'm not going to do it, and then
- 59:48Speaker 4: Jessica Tish speaks rday after the mayor. She could have
- 59:51Speaker 4: just said, Okay, he's not marching, but I am. But no, no,
- 59:54Speaker 4: if you really listen, camping and I pointed this out
- 59:57Speaker 4: on Friday, she said he's not marching, but I am.
- 1:00:00Speaker 4: And she threw in the word proudly, that word as
- 1:00:04Speaker 4: I said Friday, and people copied me. Was sticking it
- 1:00:08Speaker 4: up Mam Donnie's ass. So she stuck it up his
- 1:00:10Speaker 4: ass about the parade on Sunday. She went out him
- 1:00:14Speaker 4: yesterday about this two hundred and sixty million dollar office
- 1:00:17Speaker 4: with no conversation. So don't tell me that Jessica Tish
- 1:00:21Speaker 4: is intimidated or scared when it comes to working with
- 1:00:25Speaker 4: the mayor. It seems to me like these days she's
- 1:00:27Speaker 4: got the upper hand.
- 1:00:30Speaker 6: Yeah, I mean politically, I think she's in a very
- 1:00:32Speaker 6: strong position because if she were to make the decision
- 1:00:36Speaker 6: to leave one, you know, she still has every opportunity
- 1:00:39Speaker 6: to run for mayor herself. She still got upwards of
- 1:00:43Speaker 6: a billion dollars, which has never bad place to be.
- 1:00:46Speaker 6: And you know, she takes away a crucial aspect of
- 1:00:51Speaker 6: Mam Donnie's cover. Now, almost everything that Mamdannie does, whether
- 1:00:55Speaker 6: subtly or overtly, he does something against the Jewish people,
- 1:00:59Speaker 6: and it's a great thing for him to be able
- 1:01:01Speaker 6: to say, well, look, I have a Jewish police commissioner
- 1:01:05Speaker 6: who's proudly wearing a Jewish star on her neck every
- 1:01:07Speaker 6: single day. If she goes, that cover for him is gone. Also,
- 1:01:13Speaker 6: all of the people, you know, including in the podcast
- 1:01:16Speaker 6: sphere like you mentioned, who want to barry Mom Donnie
- 1:01:19Speaker 6: on policing issues, he can't point to the fact that, look,
- 1:01:22Speaker 6: you know, I kept on, you know, Jessica Tish, a
- 1:01:25Speaker 6: police commissioner for another administration. So yeah, she's really she's
- 1:01:29Speaker 6: really in the driver's seat politically and in terms of
- 1:01:32Speaker 6: public safety.
- 1:01:33Speaker 4: I think you're right about the mayor thing. I think
- 1:01:35Speaker 4: she is going to run. And of course, the longer
- 1:01:37Speaker 4: she sticks in, uh, you know, in this sect there
- 1:01:41Speaker 4: is the police commissioner. She sticks with that, I think
- 1:01:43Speaker 4: the better her chances are of winning a mayor's race,
- 1:01:47Speaker 4: especially when these numbers continue to favor what her and
- 1:01:50Speaker 4: the police department is doing. I joke around about the
- 1:01:52Speaker 4: mayor's race. And we've even heard, you know, John Shell,
- 1:01:55Speaker 4: the former cop, he's going to run. I love John Shell,
- 1:01:59Speaker 4: love him. He's not gonna win. Michael Rappoport has put
- 1:02:02Speaker 4: his name out there. Even Julie Mennon, you know you're
- 1:02:04Speaker 4: you're speaker, although I did hear a couple of weeks
- 1:02:07Speaker 4: ago she said she's not going to run. But I
- 1:02:09Speaker 4: do think Jessica Tish will, and I think she'll have
- 1:02:12Speaker 4: a good chance. Are you surprised to hear that guy
- 1:02:15Speaker 4: that you actually endorsed and so did I for the
- 1:02:18Speaker 4: better part of six years after two really miserable finishes,
- 1:02:23Speaker 4: I mean, all time low finishes. Are you surprised to
- 1:02:26Speaker 4: hear old buddy Curtis sliwa is going to run again.
- 1:02:29Speaker 6: So I don't believe that that is real, honestly. I mean,
- 1:02:33Speaker 6: I think you know Curtis as well or better than
- 1:02:37Speaker 6: most people.
- 1:02:37Speaker 4: Ever, well, I'll tell you if he's doing that to
- 1:02:40Speaker 4: get ratings. Last week was a five to one to
- 1:02:42Speaker 4: a one nine, So that's.
- 1:02:45Speaker 6: Not workinging attention, right. You know, Curtis has had some
- 1:02:49Speaker 6: issues to work out with the Republicans of the city.
- 1:02:53Speaker 6: I mean, you had a lot of Republicans that were
- 1:02:55Speaker 6: sour at him for the choosing to focus on Andrew
- 1:02:59Speaker 6: Cuomo rather than Mamdana yet a lot of people that
- 1:03:02Speaker 6: were soured him for not dropping out. But I got
- 1:03:05Speaker 6: to tell you, a lot of folks that stuck with
- 1:03:07Speaker 6: him are not happy that a lot of his campaign
- 1:03:11Speaker 6: workers who are not exactly wealthy and in some cases
- 1:03:14Speaker 6: left jobs that they were being paid for that they
- 1:03:18Speaker 6: haven't been paid yet. So until Curtis is able to
- 1:03:21Speaker 6: work that out, which he says, and you know, I
- 1:03:23Speaker 6: believe he's trying. Until he's able to work that out
- 1:03:26Speaker 6: and make sure those folks get made whole, I don't
- 1:03:30Speaker 6: see that going anywhere in Republican circles. So I mean, look,
- 1:03:33Speaker 6: Curtis is, for all the criticisms of him, he is
- 1:03:37Speaker 6: a master showman, and I think he knows the best
- 1:03:39Speaker 6: way to make sure that he stays in the headlines
- 1:03:41Speaker 6: is to imply that he's going to run again. I
- 1:03:45Speaker 6: think even he's politically astute enough to realize that it's
- 1:03:48Speaker 6: going to be a tough road to hope, but we'll see.
- 1:03:51Speaker 6: I mean, the problem isn't necessarily with Curtis for wanting
- 1:03:54Speaker 6: to be mayor, right, a lot of people want to
- 1:03:55Speaker 6: be mayor. The problem is a Republican Party vacuum that
- 1:04:01Speaker 6: made it so that there was no other meaningful candidate
- 1:04:04Speaker 6: that could coalesce support two times in a row. I mean,
- 1:04:07Speaker 6: what were the alternatives? The guy from Junior's Cheesecake.
- 1:04:13Speaker 4: No, that was two times. So just so you know,
- 1:04:16Speaker 4: I saw Ed Cox at that rally, Mike Lawler's rally
- 1:04:19Speaker 4: where President Trump motioned me over and I told him
- 1:04:22Speaker 4: that I said, you know, I'm not going to run
- 1:04:25Speaker 4: at all likelihood, but I'm considering it because I can't
- 1:04:28Speaker 4: allow Curtis to do it just going to embarrass the
- 1:04:31Speaker 4: Republican Party even more. And until I see some names
- 1:04:35Speaker 4: that are real decent names. I may have no choice,
- 1:04:39Speaker 4: and he didn't disagree with me. So there is some
- 1:04:41Speaker 4: onus on the Republican leaders here in New York to
- 1:04:45Speaker 4: find some decent candidates. And I'm talking about every race.
- 1:04:49Speaker 19: Now.
- 1:04:49Speaker 4: I love Bruce Blinkman, and I like his chances against
- 1:04:52Speaker 4: Kathy Holkle. Look, I'm biased, He's a dear friend of mine.
- 1:04:55Speaker 4: But in all these races, the Republican candidates seemed to
- 1:04:59Speaker 4: come up short of somebody that this town, which is
- 1:05:04Speaker 4: mostly Democrat, is going to flip to.
- 1:05:06Speaker 6: Yeah, well, look, I think a lot of it is
- 1:05:08Speaker 6: outside the individual candidate's control. Right. If people were not
- 1:05:12Speaker 6: going to vote for leez Elden because of the Row
- 1:05:14Speaker 6: Versus Wade decision, that's not Lee's Elden's fault.
- 1:05:17Speaker 18: Right.
- 1:05:17Speaker 6: If people aren't going to vote for Bruce Blakeman because
- 1:05:20Speaker 6: they don't like the job Donald Trump is doing, that's
- 1:05:23Speaker 6: no reflection on the job he's doing. Kunty executive. And
- 1:05:26Speaker 6: you have a situation where, in part because of reforms
- 1:05:31Speaker 6: under the Giuliani era to some extent the Bloomberg era,
- 1:05:35Speaker 6: and some of the things that were changed in terms
- 1:05:38Speaker 6: of parole by Governor PATTACKI and others. Crime has been
- 1:05:42Speaker 6: so good for so long that people have forgotten how
- 1:05:46Speaker 6: bad things can be. Now you are starting to see
- 1:05:49Speaker 6: things go the other way, whether it's subway crime, which
- 1:05:53Speaker 6: is definitely going in the wrong direction, or whether you know,
- 1:05:57Speaker 6: it's the fact that, as you know, speakermen and pointed
- 1:06:00Speaker 6: out on the rape numbers, rates are going in the
- 1:06:03Speaker 6: wrong You know, you do have a situation where you're
- 1:06:07Speaker 6: starting to see the canary in the coal mine emerge.
- 1:06:09Speaker 6: But it's really an artful thing that some of the
- 1:06:13Speaker 6: Democratic politicians in the city and state have been able
- 1:06:15Speaker 6: to do is they've been able to take the issue
- 1:06:18Speaker 6: of affordability, which has been driven not solely but in
- 1:06:22Speaker 6: large part by their policies, taxes, spending, energy prices, a
- 1:06:27Speaker 6: whole bunch of other things, and they've been able to
- 1:06:29Speaker 6: somehow blame Republicans for that. Now, Mom, Donnie was very smart,
- 1:06:34Speaker 6: I think to run on the issue of affordability, because
- 1:06:36Speaker 6: nobody can afford to live in this city, but the
- 1:06:38Speaker 6: people that are getting squeezed the most on the middle class. Now,
- 1:06:42Speaker 6: the solution to that, I don't think is socialism. You
- 1:06:44Speaker 6: had a great interview with Randy Fine yesterday, and you
- 1:06:46Speaker 6: pointed out that, you know, Texas and Florida is by
- 1:06:50Speaker 6: the fact that they have a lot more people, they
- 1:06:52Speaker 6: have a lower budget to New York State, and yet
- 1:06:54Speaker 6: all we do is cry poverty and Mayor Mom, Donnie,
- 1:06:58Speaker 6: it's almost like he's holding the xpayers hostage in order
- 1:07:02Speaker 6: to raise taxes. So until people are able to go
- 1:07:06Speaker 6: back to the days of separating, you know, these say
- 1:07:09Speaker 6: all politics is local. It's the old tip O'Neil expression.
- 1:07:12Speaker 6: Until they're able to go back to voting for a
- 1:07:15Speaker 6: Democrat for president and a Republican for governor, I think
- 1:07:18Speaker 6: Republicans are going to have a tough time in the city,
- 1:07:22Speaker 6: even if we run a candidate as great as a
- 1:07:24Speaker 6: Sid Rosenberg. But you know, in the sixties and seventies
- 1:07:27Speaker 6: and even the eighties, it was not unusual to see
- 1:07:31Speaker 6: people voting straight Democrat for president and then voting for
- 1:07:35Speaker 6: Republicans like Nelson Rockefeller and John Lindsay, Rudy Giuliani, George Pataki,
- 1:07:41Speaker 6: al Domato for statewide office, city office. And now it's
- 1:07:47Speaker 6: unthinkable because you're a partisan Democrat who hates Trump, you're
- 1:07:51Speaker 6: not voting for you know, Bruce Blakeman, You're not voting
- 1:07:55Speaker 6: for even non political offices like attorney general, where Republicans
- 1:07:59Speaker 6: have a very good catch.
- 1:08:00Speaker 4: Sarita, Yeah, is a nice girl. Yeah, I've met a
- 1:08:03Speaker 4: couple of times and we had Michael Henry. I like
- 1:08:05Speaker 4: him too. Oh, he's great, great guy and an all fanness.
- 1:08:09Speaker 4: I'd build the same way. I could never envision myself
- 1:08:11Speaker 4: boarding for any Democrat, but Julie Menin, right, I'm guilty too.
- 1:08:15Speaker 4: On the way out, Julie Menin, will she one for mayor?
- 1:08:19Speaker 6: You know, I don't know, I mean, I think, I
- 1:08:22Speaker 6: mean again putting on my commentator's hat, the politicians hat.
- 1:08:27Speaker 6: There's clearly I don't think loom in the Democratic primary
- 1:08:31Speaker 6: for both men In and Tish right. So they both
- 1:08:34Speaker 6: occupy pretty much the same lane, which is the non
- 1:08:39Speaker 6: socialist Democratic Party lane. It's Cuomo without the baggage and
- 1:08:45Speaker 6: with a much better record in both cases quite honestly,
- 1:08:49Speaker 6: so I think only one of them is going to
- 1:08:52Speaker 6: be in a position to run. Now, the luxury that
- 1:08:54Speaker 6: they both have is that they're both well connected financially,
- 1:08:58Speaker 6: and they both have a lot of money, so they
- 1:09:00Speaker 6: don't need to spend like a Curtis Leewa would or
- 1:09:03Speaker 6: Frank Brana Wood three years trying to raise money running
- 1:09:08Speaker 6: running for city wide office. They can have the luxury
- 1:09:11Speaker 6: of jumping in ten months before. The difficulty that Julie
- 1:09:15Speaker 6: Mennon has is that she's got to negotiate a budget
- 1:09:18Speaker 6: for the next three years with the guy that she
- 1:09:20Speaker 6: might want a running against. And the difficulty that Jessica
- 1:09:23Speaker 6: Tish has is that she's got of work for the
- 1:09:26Speaker 6: guy that she would be poised to run again. So
- 1:09:29Speaker 6: I think there's some practical concerns, But the truth is,
- 1:09:32Speaker 6: I don't know. I think that there's a lot of people.
- 1:09:35Speaker 6: I guarantee you she hears it every single day. There's
- 1:09:39Speaker 6: maybe eighteen non crazy Democratic colleagues that we serve with.
- 1:09:44Speaker 6: I guarantee you every single one of them is begging
- 1:09:47Speaker 6: her to run every single day against Zoran Mamdani could love.
- 1:09:51Speaker 6: The Democrats are not happy with Mamdani. Julie. And I'm
- 1:09:54Speaker 6: not just talking about governmentally, there's two hundred and sixty
- 1:09:56Speaker 6: million dollar community safety bloomdoggle threatening to raise property taxes,
- 1:10:00Speaker 6: the piano tery attacks, doing these insane videos outside Ken
- 1:10:03Speaker 6: Griffin's house. This constant barrage of anti Semitic conduct. But politically,
- 1:10:08Speaker 6: a lot of the Democrats are not happy with him.
- 1:10:10Speaker 6: They're not happy that he endorsed in a Democratic primary
- 1:10:13Speaker 6: against the Aleano Spayat, who's a liberal Democrats running in Manhattan.
- 1:10:18Speaker 6: They're not happy that he endorsed against Antonio Renoso running
- 1:10:21Speaker 6: in Brooklyn. They're not happy that he endorsed against this fellow,
- 1:10:24Speaker 6: Carl Wilson that just got elected in Manhattan. So he's
- 1:10:27Speaker 6: been a disruptive force even within the Democratic Prime Party.
- 1:10:30Speaker 6: And you have a lot of liberal Democrats, including a
- 1:10:33Speaker 6: lot of people you can't stand. And I was watching
- 1:10:35Speaker 6: a little bit of the clips of the brad Lander
- 1:10:37Speaker 6: Dan Goldman thinking of you, because for you, that's like
- 1:10:40Speaker 6: alien versus predators.
- 1:10:42Speaker 23: No matter who.
- 1:10:42Speaker 4: Wins, we lose, right.
- 1:10:44Speaker 6: But you know, they view they view Mamdani as a
- 1:10:49Speaker 6: very negative force within democratic circles. And I think a
- 1:10:52Speaker 6: lot of people view either Tish or men and as
- 1:10:56Speaker 6: you know, as the antidote to that, I mean, the
- 1:10:59Speaker 6: So we'll see what happened. I don't know. He's a
- 1:11:01Speaker 6: long answer, all right.
- 1:11:02Speaker 4: But you were great this morning, man, you are You're
- 1:11:03Speaker 4: great every time. And no disrespect to the other guys
- 1:11:07Speaker 4: that do the overnight show, but you're the best by far,
- 1:11:10Speaker 4: and you're doing a great job in the city council
- 1:11:12Speaker 4: and I love you to pieces. Thanks for hopping on
- 1:11:14Speaker 4: this morning. That was really great, Frank, Thank you so much.
- 1:11:17Speaker 6: Well, I'm grateful for your friendship. And whenever you always
- 1:11:19Speaker 6: list the potential shid Rosenberg for mayor supporters. I hear
- 1:11:23Speaker 6: Laura Trump mentioned that, Katy McFarlan mentioned Bruce blake Man,
- 1:11:26Speaker 6: and maybe I haven't been overt enough, but you've always
- 1:11:29Speaker 6: supported me and everything I've done radio wise and politically,
- 1:11:32Speaker 6: so absolutely listening at the top of the list potent indorse.
- 1:11:37Speaker 4: You're on the list. Frank Morano, Thank you, buddy, You're terrific.
- 1:11:39Speaker 4: I love you. Thank you.
- 1:11:40Speaker 6: Pat all Right.
- 1:11:41Speaker 4: There are a city councilman, Frank Morano, and he knows
- 1:11:45Speaker 4: his stuff. Man. Nobody knows more about city politics in him.
- 1:11:49Speaker 4: We got a lot of great guys. Hanks Shinkoff's terrific.
- 1:11:51Speaker 4: He's on the show, he knows a lot. But in
- 1:11:54Speaker 4: terms of the daily metrics and the folks that are
- 1:11:57Speaker 4: involved in every party in this you'd be hot pressed
- 1:12:01Speaker 4: to find anyone who knows more than Frank, so thank you.
- 1:12:04Speaker 4: Frank will take a short breakstill lots more to do.
- 1:12:07Speaker 4: His buddy out there on Staten Island. Nicole mall Otakis,
- 1:12:10Speaker 4: the amazing congress woman. She's going to join us before
- 1:12:13Speaker 4: Olsoul Law said and done. We're going to talk to Boddle,
- 1:12:16Speaker 4: We're going to talk to Larry Kudlow, few other greats.
- 1:12:19Speaker 4: It is the Tuesday edition.
- 1:12:21Speaker 3: Sid and Friends in the Morning on the Red Apple
- 1:12:25Speaker 3: podcast network.
- 1:12:27Speaker 4: When Keith Cantowitz offered to fly me on that private
- 1:12:30Speaker 4: plane with Spike Lee and Ben Stiller and all these
- 1:12:34Speaker 4: guys to San Antonio for Game one tomorrow night, he said, Sid,
- 1:12:37Speaker 4: you gotta go. You're not getting anywhere near the garden.
- 1:12:40Speaker 4: He said, really, Trump's coming, said Sid. The tickets are
- 1:12:43Speaker 4: like one hundred thousand apiece, So no, I don't have
- 1:12:47Speaker 4: Nick tickets. And the other one that I get a
- 1:12:49Speaker 4: text on every other day is Sid, you gotta help me.
- 1:12:53Speaker 4: I gotta be at the White House on June fourteenth,
- 1:12:57Speaker 4: happens to be Flagg Day, happened to be President Trump's
- 1:13:01Speaker 4: eightieth birthday, and happens to be Dana White's big outdoor
- 1:13:06Speaker 4: lawn UFC event right on the White House lawn, and
- 1:13:12Speaker 4: I say, I'll get you tickets as soon as I
- 1:13:14Speaker 4: get mine. I've already called Monica Crowley, I've texted President Trump.
- 1:13:18Speaker 4: You can't get them. There are congress people that are
- 1:13:21Speaker 4: willing to cut off fingers to be at that event.
- 1:13:24Speaker 4: I think there's only five hundred tickets. There'll be one
- 1:13:27Speaker 4: hundred thousand people across the street. But Nick tickets and
- 1:13:31Speaker 4: the UFC bout on the White House lawn on Trump's birthday.
- 1:13:37Speaker 4: Good luck. Let me take a short break when I
- 1:13:39Speaker 4: get back. She's the amazing congresswoman out of Staten Island
- 1:13:43Speaker 4: and Brooklyn crazy. You played the right song exactly. You
- 1:13:49Speaker 4: didn't even realize what a great job that was. Little
- 1:13:51Speaker 4: the perfect song. All right, Nicole is coming up next,
- 1:13:56Speaker 4: and she's gonna take a shot at Giapolo. Always love that.
- 1:14:01Speaker 4: You'll found out why coming up next to Coole. Maly
- 1:14:04Speaker 4: Otakis's back Sid and.
- 1:14:06Speaker 3: Friends in the morning on the Red Apple podcast network.
- 1:14:11Speaker 4: And about the same time that Obama and Castro last
- 1:14:15Speaker 4: I checked not exactly our friend, they were doing the
- 1:14:17Speaker 4: wave together. There was an explosion. Isis was blowing up
- 1:14:24Speaker 4: in airport and Brussels. You remember this Gnome right. You
- 1:14:28Speaker 4: may remember there was a brother sister combination out of
- 1:14:32Speaker 4: New Jersey. Local kids, good looking kids, not that it matters,
- 1:14:36Speaker 4: but they were and they were both killed and Barack
- 1:14:39Speaker 4: Obama couldn't care less, kind of like when Foley the
- 1:14:43Speaker 4: journalist was beheaded by Jahati John and Isis and Obama
- 1:14:47Speaker 4: was annoyed. They bothered him on the ninth hole on
- 1:14:50Speaker 4: the golf course. That's your great Black Jesus Barack Obama.
- 1:14:55Speaker 4: But the point is he butdied up the Cuba. Years later.
- 1:14:58Speaker 4: They're still doing it. The Democrats. They're still doing it,
- 1:15:02Speaker 4: especially Jayapol, who's a ordent anti Semite and a terrible
- 1:15:06Speaker 4: rep out of the state of Washington. And I'm glad
- 1:15:09Speaker 4: to see that a Cuban American Congresswoman, Nicole mal O'takis
- 1:15:14Speaker 4: is calling them out. She wants investigations. Nicole, good morning,
- 1:15:18Speaker 4: How are you.
- 1:15:19Speaker 13: Good morning, Sid, Good to be with you, my friend.
- 1:15:22Speaker 4: Nice to have you back to sweetheart. You got tickets
- 1:15:25Speaker 4: for June fourteenth.
- 1:15:27Speaker 13: Actually, you know that it's funny. I guess they're doing
- 1:15:29Speaker 13: some type of.
- 1:15:30Speaker 4: Lottery, is that right? Because I know they're giving out
- 1:15:32Speaker 4: of the five hundred and two fifty I think go
- 1:15:34Speaker 4: to the military, and now you're up at only two
- 1:15:37Speaker 4: hundred and fifty. So I'm only kidding. I'm actually more
- 1:15:40Speaker 4: concerned about this, this Cuba story. I'm glad that you
- 1:15:43Speaker 4: want to see some investigation.
- 1:15:45Speaker 13: Trying to say one thing said, you are no longer
- 1:15:48Speaker 13: allowed to request any tickets after you were a.
- 1:15:50Speaker 15: No show at the State of the.
- 1:15:52Speaker 13: Union this year for Mike Lawler and I head over heels.
- 1:15:56Speaker 13: We went. We actually went so out of way to
- 1:16:00Speaker 13: get you at a ticket and then you didn't show up. True,
- 1:16:04Speaker 13: and now you cant tickets for the UFC kidding me.
- 1:16:07Speaker 4: So of course I didn't show up because it was
- 1:16:09Speaker 4: a thirty seven thousand in snowstorm. But you know what's
- 1:16:12Speaker 4: fine what you just said. So two weeks ago, Lawler
- 1:16:16Speaker 4: sends me this invitation to come to Rockland County because
- 1:16:19Speaker 4: the president is coming. And I said, listen, Mike, if
- 1:16:22Speaker 4: you put me somewhere in that crowd where I can't
- 1:16:25Speaker 4: see him and talk to him and touch him and
- 1:16:27Speaker 4: feel him, I'm not coming. And he said to me,
- 1:16:29Speaker 4: exactly you just said, he goes, wait a second, you
- 1:16:31Speaker 4: have no leverage. Last I checked me and Nicole tried
- 1:16:34Speaker 4: to get you to Washington and you screwed us. He said,
- 1:16:37Speaker 4: just come, it'll be fine. As it turned out, of course,
- 1:16:40Speaker 4: I did have a chance to shake hands and speak
- 1:16:43Speaker 4: with the President, but he said the same exact thing
- 1:16:45Speaker 4: that you did. So I'm never going to live that
- 1:16:47Speaker 4: down that mind, Nicole. That's it.
- 1:16:48Speaker 13: You're officially off the list. Okay, and don't last this
- 1:16:51Speaker 13: next year when you don't get tickets for the State
- 1:16:54Speaker 13: of the Union.
- 1:16:54Speaker 4: Thank god, that is funny. I am coming straight to
- 1:16:57Speaker 4: you next year. Just see. You know this fight that
- 1:17:01Speaker 4: you want to put out there with these Democrats that
- 1:17:04Speaker 4: are buddying up to the Cuban folks, tell the listeners
- 1:17:08Speaker 4: exactly what that is all about and exactly what you're
- 1:17:11Speaker 4: worried about, Nicole.
- 1:17:13Speaker 13: So right around the time that our great Secretary of
- 1:17:17Speaker 13: State Mark Arrubia and our great President said that they
- 1:17:20Speaker 13: were going to push this regime to make changes. Remember
- 1:17:24Speaker 13: sixty seven years the Cuban people, including my relatives, have
- 1:17:28Speaker 13: lived under oppression. They have been.
- 1:17:30Speaker 15: Starved, they have.
- 1:17:31Speaker 13: Been treated as slaves. You know, they make about twenty
- 1:17:34Speaker 13: dollars a month and they're treated as slaves for the government.
- 1:17:39Speaker 13: They express themselves in any way in opposition what the
- 1:17:42Speaker 13: government is doing. They go to jail, they get beaten,
- 1:17:45Speaker 13: and in many cases people have been murdered. There's no
- 1:17:48Speaker 13: freedom oppressed, there's no fate, free and fair elections. But
- 1:17:50Speaker 13: also they're national security fut to us because they are
- 1:17:53Speaker 13: working in kahoots with Iran, with communist China, with Russia allies.
- 1:18:00Speaker 13: They help these terrorist organizations like hamas So and they
- 1:18:05Speaker 13: are ninety miles from outshore, so they've provided, you know,
- 1:18:09Speaker 13: base of operation for our adversaries and including spy capabilities.
- 1:18:17Speaker 13: And you know, this is a serious issue, and this
- 1:18:19Speaker 13: is our moment right now where we're trying to get
- 1:18:21Speaker 13: regime changed, not just to bring freedom to the Cuban people,
- 1:18:24Speaker 13: which I've my family would obviously love.
- 1:18:27Speaker 18: To see, but because they are.
- 1:18:29Speaker 13: A threat in this hemisphere. And what happens you have
- 1:18:33Speaker 13: at the same time that this is going on, you
- 1:18:36Speaker 13: have Jayapaul and you have a Member Johnson from Illinois,
- 1:18:43Speaker 13: Jonathan Johnson. They go to Cuba on taxpayer expense, a
- 1:18:48Speaker 13: taxpayer expense. They go to the ressional delegation trip to
- 1:18:51Speaker 13: go meet with the communist regime to talk about how
- 1:18:54Speaker 13: they could undermine our government and avoid sanctions that President
- 1:18:58Speaker 13: Trump tweeted an article this morning where I talk about
- 1:19:02Speaker 13: that they should be investigated for treason. This is unbelievable
- 1:19:06Speaker 13: that they're doing this. And by the way, the Speaker
- 1:19:07Speaker 13: needs to cut off any travel to these adversarial countries.
- 1:19:12Speaker 13: You know, this is I think it's crazy that this
- 1:19:16Speaker 13: is happening and they should not have been there. Yep,
- 1:19:19Speaker 13: and it has to be investigated.
- 1:19:21Speaker 15: No.
- 1:19:21Speaker 4: It reminds me of when that idiot from Maryland, Chris
- 1:19:24Speaker 4: van Holland went to visit that gang member right in
- 1:19:27Speaker 4: Ol Salvador. He goes to visit the gang member in
- 1:19:30Speaker 4: Ol Salvador, also going against what the Trump administration is
- 1:19:33Speaker 4: trying to do, which you know is trying to keep
- 1:19:35Speaker 4: American safe every day. But you're right, I do think
- 1:19:39Speaker 4: it's treason. So I'm glad to hear that Trump actually
- 1:19:41Speaker 4: retweeted what you wrote this morning. And I like what
- 1:19:44Speaker 4: you're saying about Mike Johnson too about the travel. Do
- 1:19:47Speaker 4: you think that those guys will do something about this?
- 1:19:50Speaker 13: Well, I'm certainly going to speak, you know, to the
- 1:19:53Speaker 13: Speaker personally about this, but look, I do believe that
- 1:19:56Speaker 13: we're seeing Treasury, by the way, go after code Pink
- 1:20:00Speaker 13: go after Hassan Piker. But Code Pink is another organization
- 1:20:03Speaker 13: that is heavily funded by Communist China, and they again
- 1:20:07Speaker 13: are here undermining our country, putting out propaganda to undermine
- 1:20:12Speaker 13: out policies. They've met with the leaders of Code Pink,
- 1:20:15Speaker 13: have met with not only the communist Cuba regime, They've
- 1:20:20Speaker 13: met with Iran, They've met with Hamas leadership over the years,
- 1:20:26Speaker 13: and so, you know, and the thing with Cuba is
- 1:20:28Speaker 13: that it's obviously there's an embargo, there are sanctions, and
- 1:20:31Speaker 13: so it's not just like you're going to meet you know,
- 1:20:32Speaker 13: people go to communist China, but we still have relations
- 1:20:35Speaker 13: with Communist China. With Cuba, I mean, there's an embargo,
- 1:20:39Speaker 13: there's sanctions.
- 1:20:39Speaker 18: It's different.
- 1:20:40Speaker 13: And so that's why I think that this has gotten
- 1:20:44Speaker 13: very much out of hand. You saw elan omargo a
- 1:20:47Speaker 13: couple of years ago, and they come back basically blaming
- 1:20:50Speaker 13: the United States for the problems in Cuba, when it
- 1:20:52Speaker 13: is the communist regime that has starved and tortured its people. Now,
- 1:20:56Speaker 13: obviously what's going on right now has exacerbated it. It
- 1:21:00Speaker 13: is worse because oil is not being let into the country.
- 1:21:03Speaker 13: What has happened in Venezuela. But it's not the fault
- 1:21:06Speaker 13: of their problems are the fault of obviously communism, and
- 1:21:09Speaker 13: the Socialists in Congress, and the Communists in Congress don't
- 1:21:13Speaker 13: seem to recognize that they still want to bring those
- 1:21:15Speaker 13: ridiculous policies here.
- 1:21:17Speaker 22: To the United States.
- 1:21:17Speaker 13: Let them defend while the Cuban people are earning fifteen
- 1:21:21Speaker 13: dollars to twenty dollars a month, when there's billions and
- 1:21:26Speaker 13: billions of dollars that are kept by entities in the
- 1:21:29Speaker 13: regime and the leadership, the communist leadership live like kings, okay,
- 1:21:34Speaker 13: are they have tons of money? They live like billionaires.
- 1:21:38Speaker 13: They are billionaires, And meanwhile the people are suffering and
- 1:21:43Speaker 13: don't even have access to food, to medicine, and to
- 1:21:46Speaker 13: basic necessities.
- 1:21:47Speaker 4: Nicole Malotakis, of course of Cuban descent, as is Yappa
- 1:21:51Speaker 4: mentioned amazing Secretary of State Marco Rubio, as is another
- 1:21:55Speaker 4: guy I think running for president in twenty twenty eight
- 1:21:58Speaker 4: that I like a lot out of Texas tech, So
- 1:22:00Speaker 4: a lot of amazing Republican folks that come from Cuba.
- 1:22:05Speaker 4: One more on Cuba. You know, we just did this
- 1:22:08Speaker 4: in Venezuela and took out Maduro. It was one of
- 1:22:12Speaker 4: the great things that any president has ever done. Forget
- 1:22:14Speaker 4: about Trump has ever done. And we're not going to
- 1:22:17Speaker 4: have to see the same firepower obviously to do what
- 1:22:21Speaker 4: we did in Venezuela in Cuba. But how far do
- 1:22:23Speaker 4: you want to see Nicole America go to make sure
- 1:22:27Speaker 4: that whatever operation they do succeeds in Cuba.
- 1:22:32Speaker 13: Look, the human rights crimes committed by Raoul Castro are awful.
- 1:22:39Speaker 13: I mean, he's responsible for the murder of countless individuals.
- 1:22:44Speaker 18: But there's a particular situation.
- 1:22:46Speaker 13: The reason why he was charged by the United States government.
- 1:22:49Speaker 13: They killed three American citizens, one permanent American resident a
- 1:22:54Speaker 13: humanitarian mission back in nineteen ninety six. Every president since
- 1:22:58Speaker 13: then has turned a blind eye. President Trump refuses to
- 1:23:01Speaker 13: do that. The DOJ has charged Royal cash go and
- 1:23:05Speaker 13: we should bring him to justice. Now, the guy's ninety
- 1:23:08Speaker 13: four years old, So if it's between you know, having
- 1:23:10Speaker 13: him come and sit in a jail for a couple
- 1:23:12Speaker 13: of years and actually getting them to use this as
- 1:23:15Speaker 13: leverage to get them to flee the regime and allow
- 1:23:19Speaker 13: for people to organize and create political parties and have
- 1:23:22Speaker 13: free and fair elections and just have some type of
- 1:23:26Speaker 13: say in their destiny. I prefer that we see, you know,
- 1:23:29Speaker 13: use this as leverage, have regime change. And this is
- 1:23:31Speaker 13: why it's so crazy that Giapol is going over there.
- 1:23:34Speaker 13: And actually, you know, at this time where we're trying
- 1:23:36Speaker 13: to put pressure and drive the regime out, you have
- 1:23:39Speaker 13: members of Congress we're actually going there.
- 1:23:41Speaker 18: To try to give him a lifeline.
- 1:23:43Speaker 4: It's like, it's crazy, Congress from Nicole mali otagis, let's
- 1:23:47Speaker 4: cover this closer to the home. I know you've been back,
- 1:23:50Speaker 4: you know, you back the blue when you've got legislation
- 1:23:52Speaker 4: out there, back to blue legislation to protect our federal
- 1:23:55Speaker 4: law enforcement officers. We see what's happening Nicole every day
- 1:23:58Speaker 4: out there on New Joy at the Laney Hall, and
- 1:24:02Speaker 4: we don't want this to turn into Minnesota where Preddy
- 1:24:05Speaker 4: and Good died. But again, this narrative coming from the
- 1:24:09Speaker 4: left that Ice or nice as Trump calls them, they're
- 1:24:13Speaker 4: out there killing people and wonderful people like pretty and
- 1:24:16Speaker 4: Good as if we dragged them out of their homes
- 1:24:19Speaker 4: or church and that's why they died that day. We
- 1:24:21Speaker 4: know that's not the case. They were instigators. They didn't
- 1:24:24Speaker 4: deserve to die, but they were in the wrong place
- 1:24:26Speaker 4: at the wrong time. And for the most part, overwhelmingly,
- 1:24:29Speaker 4: ICE does amazing work getting rid of horrible people, deporting them,
- 1:24:35Speaker 4: binding children. It's not even close. The numbers point to
- 1:24:39Speaker 4: an amazing job by ICE. Yet all these Democrats vilify
- 1:24:43Speaker 4: them every day, demonize them every day, and it's putting
- 1:24:46Speaker 4: these operers' lives in danger. You want to change that,
- 1:24:50Speaker 4: don't you.
- 1:24:51Speaker 18: Yeah.
- 1:24:51Speaker 13: In fact, my legislation is safer for everyone involved. Right
- 1:24:55Speaker 13: protesters want to protest, they need to stay fifteenth feed
- 1:25:00Speaker 13: out of the way of law enforcement doing their job.
- 1:25:03Speaker 13: That's all federal law enforcement. I'd love to do it
- 1:25:05Speaker 13: for you know, local guys NYPD would love this, but
- 1:25:08Speaker 13: the problem is my obviously the member of Congress, we
- 1:25:11Speaker 13: can only reach on the federal level. There is a
- 1:25:13Speaker 13: similar legislation, by the way, at the state level. But
- 1:25:16Speaker 13: what I will say is that this is a common
- 1:25:18Speaker 13: sense peace of legislation. People want to protest, they have
- 1:25:22Speaker 13: that right. They do not have the right to be
- 1:25:24Speaker 13: agitators and hinder law enforcement when they're trying to do
- 1:25:29Speaker 13: their jobs. And so this is safer for everyone involved.
- 1:25:32Speaker 13: And I hope that we can get some traction. I've
- 1:25:34Speaker 13: already spoken with Judiciary Chairman Jim Jordan about this issue.
- 1:25:38Speaker 13: I think he likes the idea because it makes sense.
- 1:25:41Speaker 13: But you know, this goes to a bigger issue here.
- 1:25:43Speaker 13: You know, these guys do not want to cooperate the
- 1:25:46Speaker 13: state people, our governor, whether it's New York's governor or
- 1:25:50Speaker 13: New Jersey's governor, our mayor. They want to do everything
- 1:25:53Speaker 13: they can to make it impossible for ICE to get
- 1:25:56Speaker 13: criminals off our streets. Look, Lake Andy's murderer was actually
- 1:26:01Speaker 13: arrested in New York and was released back onto the street.
- 1:26:04Speaker 13: When to Georgia killed Blake and Riley, you had the
- 1:26:07Speaker 13: poor eighty two year old man who was killed shoved
- 1:26:10Speaker 13: in front of a subway by somebody who is here illegally. Again,
- 1:26:15Speaker 13: this was completely preventable. When these people are arrested and
- 1:26:18Speaker 13: they have criminal records, and you have the Democrats going
- 1:26:22Speaker 13: out of their way to release them from jail through
- 1:26:24Speaker 13: a back door, so ICE can't get them. Now, ICE
- 1:26:28Speaker 13: has to go on the street and find them. And
- 1:26:30Speaker 13: so if they don't want this type of stuff playing
- 1:26:32Speaker 13: out in streets, then they should cooperate and be somewhat reasonable.
- 1:26:37Speaker 13: I mean, it's like, it's just completely insane that we're
- 1:26:40Speaker 13: protecting our our government, our state, local primarily and this
- 1:26:45Speaker 13: mayor are actually protecting these individuals. And then you have
- 1:26:49Speaker 13: these judges, by the way, that are helping them again
- 1:26:52Speaker 13: escape the back door of the courthouse.
- 1:26:54Speaker 18: We'll talk about.
- 1:26:55Speaker 13: Criminals, being specific about these criminals, and what does Kathy
- 1:27:00Speaker 13: Hockle do after multiple people have been murdered, whether it
- 1:27:04Speaker 13: be in an arson fire, shoved in a subway, or
- 1:27:06Speaker 13: murdered like Lakeln Riley, what does she do? She doubles down.
- 1:27:09Speaker 13: And now the Democrats in Albany changing the law once
- 1:27:12Speaker 13: again to make it even harder for any local governments
- 1:27:15Speaker 13: that do want to cooperate to turn over these criminals,
- 1:27:18Speaker 13: like Nassau County under Bruce Blake, and she's prohibiting that.
- 1:27:23Speaker 13: And so it's a sad situation. And I think that
- 1:27:27Speaker 13: if we had more cooperation from the city in the state,
- 1:27:30Speaker 13: you wouldn't see this type of escalation that we're seeing
- 1:27:33Speaker 13: right now.
- 1:27:34Speaker 4: It's a sad situation for the whole state. I mean,
- 1:27:36Speaker 4: thank God, Nicole for people like you, and I mean that,
- 1:27:38Speaker 4: you know, I think it toorific. I really do you
- 1:27:41Speaker 4: and our friend Mike Lawler and a few other law
- 1:27:44Speaker 4: folks here, but the mayor. You wouldn't even say his name.
- 1:27:47Speaker 4: Moments ago you said this mayor and the governor, she's
- 1:27:50Speaker 4: a complete disaster. And as long as you've got that
- 1:27:53Speaker 4: one two punch in this state, I'm sorry, we're in
- 1:27:56Speaker 4: all kinds of trouble. I mean, I saw you, like
- 1:27:59Speaker 4: everybody else, a pine on the fact that this creep
- 1:28:02Speaker 4: Momdani didn't come to parade on Sunday as a proud
- 1:28:05Speaker 4: Jewish man. I didn't want him there. But that's not
- 1:28:07Speaker 4: the point. The point is it's not whether or not
- 1:28:08Speaker 4: sid Rosenberg wants him there. It's the fact that this
- 1:28:11Speaker 4: mayor should have been there. This parade was not in Jerusalem.
- 1:28:15Speaker 4: He hates Israel, fine, this parade was not in Jerusalem.
- 1:28:19Speaker 4: It was not Bibi wasn't the Grand Marshal, his police
- 1:28:22Speaker 4: commissioner was. He cannot make one legitimate excuse why he
- 1:28:26Speaker 4: won't go to parade on Fifth Avenue in New York City.
- 1:28:28Speaker 4: Whether Israel's name is on it or not. It was
- 1:28:31Speaker 4: not an Israeli parade. It was a parade celebrating Jewish
- 1:28:35Speaker 4: people in his own city.
- 1:28:37Speaker 13: The only mayor in the sixty one year history of
- 1:28:41Speaker 13: this parade, Republican or Democrat, that has not shown up
- 1:28:44Speaker 13: at the parade. I think, particularly now at the height
- 1:28:48Speaker 13: of anti Semitism that we're seeing right now, where we're
- 1:28:51Speaker 13: leading the nation another sad stat about New York. We're
- 1:28:55Speaker 13: not just leading the nation when it comes to high
- 1:28:57Speaker 13: taxes and driving people out. We're leading the nation now
- 1:28:59Speaker 13: when it comes to anti Semitism. And these are a
- 1:29:03Speaker 13: results of the policies of this mayor, of this governor,
- 1:29:07Speaker 13: and it's it really I thought it was very striking
- 1:29:10Speaker 13: and I thought it was a wonderful contrast to see
- 1:29:13Speaker 13: that the police commissioner showed up, that the speaker of
- 1:29:16Speaker 13: the City Council showed up. So those are two citywide
- 1:29:19Speaker 13: leaders that were present and and and showed a big
- 1:29:24Speaker 13: contrast with with the mayor. And again you know, you
- 1:29:26Speaker 13: had Mike Bloomberg there, you had Eric Adams. There was
- 1:29:28Speaker 13: good to see both Republican and Democrat former mayors participate.
- 1:29:33Speaker 13: But I think it sends a real clear message to
- 1:29:36Speaker 13: the Jewish community where this mayor stands. And in a way,
- 1:29:40Speaker 13: like you said, I think I don't think he has
- 1:29:42Speaker 13: missed much. But do you think that you know, you
- 1:29:46Speaker 13: know somebody who supports the BDS movement who basically stood
- 1:29:50Speaker 13: with hamas un alt the very end of his campaign
- 1:29:52Speaker 13: when you finally condemned condemned them. Uh. And then he
- 1:29:55Speaker 13: also said he was going to arrest net and Yahoo
- 1:29:57Speaker 13: when he came to New York City. I mean, we
- 1:29:59Speaker 13: know where he stands on. Fortunately, and this is what
- 1:30:01Speaker 13: people voted for and now were stuck for the next four.
- 1:30:04Speaker 15: Years three and a half.
- 1:30:05Speaker 4: Thank god. All right, last one sixty seconds. The great
- 1:30:11Speaker 4: congress woman out of Staten Island and Brooklyn Nicole male otagas,
- 1:30:15Speaker 4: where are we with the reconciliation with the budget?
- 1:30:19Speaker 13: Well, we're in DC today and we're gonna be meeting
- 1:30:23Speaker 13: and talking about what the next step is. I mean,
- 1:30:25Speaker 13: I was disappointed that the Senate went home and we're
- 1:30:28Speaker 13: waiting on the Senate basically to send us the final
- 1:30:32Speaker 13: bill to fund ICE, to fund customs and border protection.
- 1:30:37Speaker 13: They do have funding right now, but they need more money. Obviously.
- 1:30:41Speaker 13: We have the America to fifty coming up, we have
- 1:30:43Speaker 13: the twenty fifth anniversary of nine to eleven. There's a
- 1:30:45Speaker 13: lot of the world copy of a lot going on
- 1:30:48Speaker 13: a lot of activities, and we need to make sure
- 1:30:50Speaker 13: that they have money to do their job. Now, the
- 1:30:54Speaker 13: DHS is fully funded, but obviously, you know, with the
- 1:30:57Speaker 13: amount of people that Joe Biden had let in people
- 1:31:01Speaker 13: that were on the terror watch list that we caught
- 1:31:03Speaker 13: at the border, hundreds of them, you have millions of
- 1:31:05Speaker 13: people that have gone undetected into our country. We don't
- 1:31:09Speaker 13: know who they are, where they are, or what their
- 1:31:11Speaker 13: intentions are. And then you have the Democrats on top
- 1:31:13Speaker 13: of it, making it so much harder for people to
- 1:31:16Speaker 13: find criminals and potential terrorists. And so I think that,
- 1:31:21Speaker 13: you know, we need to get this done as quickly
- 1:31:23Speaker 13: as possible. Now in Reconciliation three, I don't know if
- 1:31:26Speaker 13: that's ever going to happen, but my committee ways and
- 1:31:28Speaker 13: means we oversee tax and I'm already working on provisions
- 1:31:31Speaker 13: that we could potentially help get in there if there
- 1:31:35Speaker 13: is the opportunity. One of my bills I just introduced
- 1:31:39Speaker 13: yesterday was a bill to increase the exemption on the
- 1:31:43Speaker 13: capital gains tax for seniors who are selling their homes.
- 1:31:46Speaker 13: A lot of seniors hold on to their houses and
- 1:31:49Speaker 13: they want to downsize because their children have grown, they
- 1:31:52Speaker 13: moved on, they need a smaller space. It's a lot
- 1:31:55Speaker 13: of upkeep and expense for a senior citizen, and so
- 1:31:58Speaker 13: my bill would actually give them an opportunity to sell
- 1:32:01Speaker 13: their homes and protect their nest egg, allowing a new
- 1:32:03Speaker 13: family to move in, allowing them to do what they
- 1:32:05Speaker 13: want to do, which is downsize. And so that's a
- 1:32:08Speaker 13: good bill that I hope we can get there. It's
- 1:32:10Speaker 13: very tailored for seniors, but we do have one that
- 1:32:12Speaker 13: actually increases the capital gains tax exemption for everyone as well,
- 1:32:15Speaker 13: because that hasn't been modernized since nineteen ninety seven. It
- 1:32:18Speaker 13: was never indexed, it was never increased, and now it's
- 1:32:21Speaker 13: that you know, if you earned two hundred and fifty
- 1:32:23Speaker 13: thousand dollars profit on your sale of your home, anything
- 1:32:26Speaker 13: above that gets taxed over five hundred thousand dollars if
- 1:32:30Speaker 13: you're a married couple. Here in New York City, obviously
- 1:32:31Speaker 13: my district alan an average sale price is about seven
- 1:32:34Speaker 13: hundred thousand dollars. So a lot of people build their equity,
- 1:32:37Speaker 13: that's their life savings, that's their nest egg, and they
- 1:32:39Speaker 13: don't want to.
- 1:32:40Speaker 6: Be taxed on it.
- 1:32:40Speaker 13: And they're right, so it shouldn't be taxed on it
- 1:32:42Speaker 13: to the extent that the government is doing. So we're
- 1:32:45Speaker 13: hoping to provide some relief to build on. You know
- 1:32:48Speaker 13: what we were able to deliver in the first package,
- 1:32:50Speaker 13: which was obviously the salt relief, as well as the
- 1:32:54Speaker 13: Senior Bonus Deduction, which was a bill that I drafted
- 1:32:57Speaker 13: that helped return the money paid on Social Security back
- 1:33:01Speaker 13: to fifty one million seniors across the country. And so,
- 1:33:06Speaker 13: you know, we continue to look for progress and ways
- 1:33:09Speaker 13: to help seniors and tax paying Americans who work so
- 1:33:13Speaker 13: hard and should keep their money not give it to
- 1:33:15Speaker 13: the government. As we see our hopefully our state people
- 1:33:19Speaker 13: will match some of this stuff and we could see
- 1:33:21Speaker 13: that added relief from the local level.
- 1:33:24Speaker 4: It's a great job, Nicole. Mario Takas has always great
- 1:33:26Speaker 4: job here on the radio, great job in DC, great
- 1:33:29Speaker 4: job here in Brooklyn and Staten Island. We love you, Nick,
- 1:33:31Speaker 4: Thank you so much.
- 1:33:32Speaker 13: Thanks my friends, take care you too.
- 1:33:34Speaker 4: The cole Mario Takis right there, the amazing congress woman
- 1:33:36Speaker 4: out of Staten Island and Brooklyn. A lot more to
- 1:33:38Speaker 4: do today. Alex Trainman's going to stop by JNS dot
- 1:33:41Speaker 4: orgon Israel. What's really going on between BB and Trump?
- 1:33:44Speaker 4: Alex said Dan, his primary is today.
- 1:33:47Speaker 3: Sid and Friends in the Morning on the Red Apple
- 1:33:51Speaker 3: Podcast Network.
- 1:33:53Speaker 4: Paul, welcome back, how are you?
- 1:33:55Speaker 18: Good morning?
- 1:33:56Speaker 15: And thank you?
- 1:33:56Speaker 18: Said you know, I've been listening. You have a great show.
- 1:34:00Speaker 18: But I got some real meat. I got some real
- 1:34:02Speaker 18: meat that I'm bringing to this. Like he's hearings yesterday
- 1:34:05Speaker 18: with city council speaker and the commissioner Tishu. This is
- 1:34:09Speaker 18: just part of an inexperienced little smiley boy. He has
- 1:34:13Speaker 18: no clue of what he's running. Like the OCS Office
- 1:34:17Speaker 18: of Community State two hundred and sixty million. We wonder
- 1:34:21Speaker 18: why our budget has fallen down. It's the same as
- 1:34:24Speaker 18: that jerk Off violence interrupteds. Have you had that one that's.
- 1:34:28Speaker 15: He put fun.
- 1:34:32Speaker 4: Ups what happened to the.
- 1:34:33Speaker 18: Face and slashed the guy in the face when the
- 1:34:37Speaker 18: police came to investigate. You know what, these violence interrupteds,
- 1:34:41Speaker 18: so we don't talk to police. So we're paying one
- 1:34:44Speaker 18: hundred million, two hundred and sixty million for the editor
- 1:34:46Speaker 18: Cherkoff idea. This is what in the experienced punk And
- 1:34:50Speaker 18: before I get into the real thing that he's got
- 1:34:52Speaker 18: a new Bureau. It's the Office of Mass Engagement. I'll
- 1:34:55Speaker 18: get to that in a second.
- 1:34:56Speaker 4: That's another jerk off before you get to the next office.
- 1:34:59Speaker 4: A good new is I had prank Marona on earlier.
- 1:35:01Speaker 4: He did a great job with it. Jessica Tish, the
- 1:35:04Speaker 4: police commissioner, when she's being questioned by city council speaker
- 1:35:08Speaker 4: at Julie men and I like them both. Jessica Moore,
- 1:35:10Speaker 4: Obviously she did a good job yesterday. Bo you got
- 1:35:12Speaker 4: you got to give a credit, Jessica Tis sounds like
- 1:35:14Speaker 4: she's running this city.
- 1:35:16Speaker 18: I do and what we need is more cops than
- 1:35:18Speaker 18: what we gotta do is we got to do good backgrounds.
- 1:35:21Speaker 18: We got to get a better quality. We just shouldn't
- 1:35:23Speaker 18: put bodies on there that breeds a past that desk.
- 1:35:26Speaker 18: We need good professional cops. And that's what it's all about.
- 1:35:29Speaker 18: One more thing I spoke to the powers to be people,
- 1:35:32Speaker 18: don't worry about the manholes. These are people that climbed
- 1:35:35Speaker 18: in after the reins and what they do is look
- 1:35:37Speaker 18: for valuables down there, so they're not terroristal he's off
- 1:35:41Speaker 18: on acts. Hey, great news, Hassan Piker your best friend there.
- 1:35:45Speaker 18: He's been banned from England. Did you know that he
- 1:35:47Speaker 18: will not they will not allow them. Why is it
- 1:35:50Speaker 18: he banned from the United States?
- 1:35:51Speaker 4: I don't why because he's best friends with you, with
- 1:35:54Speaker 4: the guy you voted for mayor Mom, Donnie, Oh no, no.
- 1:35:57Speaker 18: No, you hey listen. And then all of a sudden,
- 1:36:01Speaker 18: my friend, my friend there who my support, Bruce Blateman
- 1:36:04Speaker 18: should be the governor. All of a sudden he's sitting
- 1:36:07Speaker 18: down with the other things. Eric Adams, the Albanian citizen.
- 1:36:11Speaker 18: Why didn't he get an Albanian citizenship because there's no expedition.
- 1:36:15Speaker 18: What what our friends should ask him? Blake and she
- 1:36:17Speaker 18: has him? What did you do with the seven billion dollars? Eric?
- 1:36:21Speaker 4: Oh you're present. I'm with you. I'm with you. I get,
- 1:36:24Speaker 4: I get, I get so frustrated. I was sitting at
- 1:36:27Speaker 4: a table yesterday at the Jerusalem Post conference with my
- 1:36:30Speaker 4: friend Liz Pipko, went some rabbi and I said, what
- 1:36:33Speaker 4: is it with you people? This this love? Like Bill
- 1:36:35Speaker 4: Ackman tweeting out an Adams video, What a great guy
- 1:36:38Speaker 4: he is? What is his love for Eric Adams? He
- 1:36:41Speaker 4: deserted the Jewish people for sixteen months after October seventh,
- 1:36:45Speaker 4: and yet they can't wait as will As to do
- 1:36:47Speaker 4: business with him. They talk about this guy like he's
- 1:36:50Speaker 4: Rudy Giuliani and Mike Bloomberg.
- 1:36:51Speaker 18: The truth, he scked, he sucked his banks, was running
- 1:36:56Speaker 18: the education thing. They're stealing there. You got all his
- 1:36:59Speaker 18: under lieutenants that came to me want to be charged
- 1:37:02Speaker 18: three turns about the kickbacks. This guy's one of the
- 1:37:05Speaker 18: more corrupt guys. And if he wasn't corrupt, he would
- 1:37:08Speaker 18: be re elected. We wouldn't have this scumbag Mondamin.
- 1:37:11Speaker 4: Well, let me ask him. Let me ask you, because
- 1:37:13Speaker 4: he seems botel busier than ever. If he worked this
- 1:37:16Speaker 4: hard when he was mayor, he may have had a
- 1:37:18Speaker 4: chance to win. He's on Twitter every fifteen minutes. He's
- 1:37:21Speaker 4: at every parade, he's at every business meeting, He's all
- 1:37:23Speaker 4: over the city. Do you think there's a possibility that
- 1:37:27Speaker 4: Eric Adams may run again.
- 1:37:29Speaker 18: After when I get finished with him, when I get
- 1:37:32Speaker 18: finished telling him what this guy did, he wouldn't run
- 1:37:34Speaker 18: for dogcock. You better go back to Albania now, people,
- 1:37:38Speaker 18: you know we got the news media. Why isn't it
- 1:37:40Speaker 18: all over TV? There's riots going on all over Europe.
- 1:37:44Speaker 18: My son was robed in London, friends of mine, the
- 1:37:48Speaker 18: kids are robbed. Raps are going on all over Europe.
- 1:37:51Speaker 18: We're talking about England, France. If the island jumps fight
- 1:37:54Speaker 18: these scumbag migrant verdical Muslims that are all over the place,
- 1:37:59Speaker 18: why isn't it being shown on TV?
- 1:38:01Speaker 6: You know what?
- 1:38:01Speaker 18: That's what they wanted to come to the United States people.
- 1:38:05Speaker 18: There was nine one hundred arrests, over two hundred cop
- 1:38:08Speaker 18: for assaulted in the hospital, people in critical condition. This
- 1:38:12Speaker 18: is what's coming to America. And we're starting with the
- 1:38:16Speaker 18: lead scumbag, lead scumbag. Here hits here's a great one,
- 1:38:20Speaker 18: the Office of Mass Engagement. Youll clu what that is.
- 1:38:24Speaker 18: He's the more money wasted with smiley face, five point
- 1:38:27Speaker 18: two million to pay for swollen salaries. These are information
- 1:38:31Speaker 18: ministers for Mondami's new DSA and he's put this one
- 1:38:36Speaker 18: of in there. It's just like China's CPC communists. These
- 1:38:40Speaker 18: are all DSA Democratic socialwhere he's for the five point
- 1:38:44Speaker 18: two millions. I'm sitting money on these scumbags.
- 1:38:47Speaker 19: What did I tell it?
- 1:38:47Speaker 18: Here? And then he goes on a bicycle. Hey, hey, dickhead,
- 1:38:51Speaker 18: you're riding them down why don't you ride on the
- 1:38:53Speaker 18: city like a bike. You're riding on a real custom
- 1:38:56Speaker 18: bike with your steering. You look at the jerk up
- 1:38:58Speaker 18: that you are.
- 1:38:59Speaker 4: And by the way he rode that bicycle, that was
- 1:39:03Speaker 4: the same exact time that I was at the Israel
- 1:39:05Speaker 4: Day parade. So if he doesn't show with the parade
- 1:39:07Speaker 4: because he hates everybody, that's one thing. So you would
- 1:39:10Speaker 4: think bo that he'd be very low key that day,
- 1:39:13Speaker 4: very low profile, very quiet, just not to really he's
- 1:39:16Speaker 4: sticking up the Jews ass instead showing how much he
- 1:39:19Speaker 4: really hates us. He goes out for a bike ride
- 1:39:22Speaker 4: and make sure that people are taking pictures. What is
- 1:39:25Speaker 4: the matter with people?
- 1:39:26Speaker 18: That's the best part about that. He wasn't wearing a helmet.
- 1:39:29Speaker 18: Oh please God, Oh please God. All, like I say,
- 1:39:32Speaker 18: is one more thing, one one, not one more? I
- 1:39:34Speaker 18: got playing war. Last week I talked about these three
- 1:39:36Speaker 18: dsa socialist running for congress. Guess what the polymarket prediction.
- 1:39:41Speaker 18: Bran Landers wins, this de rasis, Chivallea wins, and Claire
- 1:39:46Speaker 18: Belds they all win all three. They gonna have three
- 1:39:49Speaker 18: more congressional seats out of New York. We're going into
- 1:39:53Speaker 18: the toilet bowl. Here we go a whole lot. More
- 1:39:55Speaker 18: important is Mandami has not put in an economic develop
- 1:40:00Speaker 18: up in chief. Remember, all of a sudden, that's the
- 1:40:02Speaker 18: person who brings development into the city. He isna'ven meaning
- 1:40:05Speaker 18: high in any mad because he doesn't care. All he
- 1:40:08Speaker 18: wants to do is take some money and spend it
- 1:40:10Speaker 18: on his bull crap. That's all he's doing. And you
- 1:40:13Speaker 18: know what Blakeman wants to explain to the vote is
- 1:40:15Speaker 18: what's going on between them Snaggle hoot who snaggle though
- 1:40:19Speaker 18: total and Maya Mondami. What's gonna happen? The economic decline
- 1:40:24Speaker 18: is gonna be a Ponzi clapped and we went through
- 1:40:27Speaker 18: it nineteen seventy five. Right now, you can just to
- 1:40:30Speaker 18: take him, take him, take it. Who's gonna pay for it?
- 1:40:33Speaker 18: Who's gonna pay for it? And then I've been in
- 1:40:36Speaker 18: touch with my guys from Homeland Security and I called
- 1:40:39Speaker 18: one of the chiefs of the New Jersey State Police
- 1:40:43Speaker 18: over there. Do people realize, Thank God for my friends
- 1:40:47Speaker 18: with the New Jersey State Police. They don't mess around.
- 1:40:50Speaker 18: And these people that are demonstrating to me information, these
- 1:40:54Speaker 18: are the same scums that we're in Minnesota. These are
- 1:40:58Speaker 18: paid people and know what it's all about. Said it's
- 1:41:01Speaker 18: against Donald Trump. They don't tear they won an incident.
- 1:41:05Speaker 18: They love for one of these douche begs to get killed.
- 1:41:09Speaker 18: And that's what they call. They call against Trump. That's
- 1:41:12Speaker 18: what it's all about. There was no food strike. And
- 1:41:15Speaker 18: listen to me. You come from these places where you're
- 1:41:17Speaker 18: drinking fig and pilot water. Now you're worried about what

- 1:41:41Speaker 18: Then they had an arrest team in the back of them.
- 1:41:43Speaker 18: This is what we gotta do, wipe them out. New
- 1:41:46Speaker 18: York State Coopers learn from that, because I tell you
- 1:41:49Speaker 18: right now, Jersey State Troopers, I take my hat off

- 1:44:43Speaker 4: My advice is to be strong. I don't I don't
- 1:44:47Speaker 4: like it when I see Jewish people, moms and dads,
- 1:44:51Speaker 4: they tell their kids, you can take your yama golf.
- 1:44:55Speaker 4: Take it off. If you're nervous to walk in the streets,
- 1:44:57Speaker 4: take a yama golf. I can't stand that. Or high
- 1:45:00Speaker 4: Jamogan w you do that, they win. They'd almost rather
- 1:45:04Speaker 4: see that than a dead body in the street of television.
- 1:45:06Speaker 4: Trust me, Okay, don't do that. Don't tell your kids.
- 1:45:09Speaker 4: I know you're a parent. You're nervous. I'm nervous. I'm
- 1:45:12Speaker 4: nervous too. Okay, I've got a son who goes to
- 1:45:14Speaker 4: school in Chelsea. It's not easy, and my daughter just
- 1:45:17Speaker 4: came back from London. You want to talk about a
- 1:45:19Speaker 4: rough place for three years, but when you do that,
- 1:45:22Speaker 4: you're really doing a disservice to the Jewish people fighting
- 1:45:26Speaker 4: for us in Israel and all of you find people
- 1:45:28Speaker 4: in the audience here today, do not do that. Where
- 1:45:33Speaker 4: are your yamaka proudly? Where are your hi proudly? And
- 1:45:37Speaker 4: show everybody that you Jewish that little part of my
- 1:45:41Speaker 4: appearance yesterday with Liz pipcong you ready for this. It's
- 1:45:45Speaker 4: up to eighteen million views. Listen again, folks, listen carefully. Okay,
- 1:45:50Speaker 4: all you people that are in presce with your social
- 1:45:52Speaker 4: media numbers. Eighteen million views. But I just said on
- 1:45:58Speaker 4: Twitter this morning, happens to be the CEO of JNS
- 1:46:02Speaker 4: dot Org. I am really excited going back to Israel
- 1:46:05Speaker 4: and just a couple of weeks June eighteenth, and for
- 1:46:08Speaker 4: the second straight year, I will speak at the second
- 1:46:12Speaker 4: annual JNS International Policy Summit. Great list of speakers. I
- 1:46:16Speaker 4: was told by Huckaby. He texted me this morning He's
- 1:46:19Speaker 4: not gonna be there, but will be b Natanyau, Mark Levin,
- 1:46:24Speaker 4: Ron Dermer, Alex myself, Morton Klein, Victoria Coats, whole bunch
- 1:46:29Speaker 4: of great people. So, Alex, I can't wait to see you.
- 1:46:31Speaker 19: My friend, Howia, I can't wait to see you as well.
- 1:46:34Speaker 4: Now it's going to be a great, great couple of days,
- 1:46:37Speaker 4: three days at the beautiful Waldorf Astory in Jerusalem. I
- 1:46:40Speaker 4: arrive on June eighteenth, and again I'm very excited about it.
- 1:46:44Speaker 4: I know when you hear what I had to say there, Alex,
- 1:46:46Speaker 4: you're in New York a lot. You're in New Yorker
- 1:46:48Speaker 4: and big nick man, I know that. And you wear
- 1:46:51Speaker 4: yayamaka in the streets here in New York. You don't
- 1:46:53Speaker 4: take it off. You're not You're not going to allow
- 1:46:55Speaker 4: those people to intimidate you when you're getting rockets fired
- 1:46:57Speaker 4: at you every night at your house in So I
- 1:47:00Speaker 4: think you probably liked my advice.
- 1:47:02Speaker 5: Yes, absolutely, And I was very pleased when I was
- 1:47:06Speaker 5: there just a couple of weeks ago, and I came
- 1:47:08Speaker 5: into your studios, but I saw lots of Jews on
- 1:47:10Speaker 5: the street wearing their yamakas, you know, very clearly Jewish
- 1:47:15Speaker 5: and just going about their lives. And it's felt like, okay,
- 1:47:18Speaker 5: you know, just do what you need to do in
- 1:47:20Speaker 5: terms of, you know, getting your ass kicked once in
- 1:47:22Speaker 5: a while.
- 1:47:23Speaker 22: You know, that's what.
- 1:47:23Speaker 5: Happened over here in October seventh. We got it really good,
- 1:47:26Speaker 5: but we could see that it's actually made us a
- 1:47:29Speaker 5: lot stronger. When you determined that you need to fight
- 1:47:32Speaker 5: for your existence and you're you're willing to do.
- 1:47:34Speaker 4: That three years coming up in October hard to believe.
- 1:47:37Speaker 4: So a big story today is that as Trump continues
- 1:47:40Speaker 4: to try to get this peace deal done with Iran,
- 1:47:42Speaker 4: which they want no part of. It's just it's funny.
- 1:47:45Speaker 4: Your guy is doing his best. I want no part
- 1:47:47Speaker 4: of it. But I guess at one point yesterday Trump
- 1:47:50Speaker 4: and BB why not what he? Trump and BB Trump
- 1:47:54Speaker 4: ripped into BB nets in Yahoo. Somebody heard Trump say,
- 1:47:58Speaker 4: what the F are you doing?
- 1:48:00Speaker 18: Him?
- 1:48:00Speaker 4: When I say f Trump actually uses the curse word,
- 1:48:03Speaker 4: You're e being crazy. You'd be in prison if it
- 1:48:07Speaker 4: weren't for me. I'm saving your s. Everybody hates you now,
- 1:48:12Speaker 4: everybody hates Israel because of this. This is supposedly what
- 1:48:17Speaker 4: Trump screamed dot BB yesterday with a bunch of people
- 1:48:20Speaker 4: in DC, saying Trump was legitimately pissed. So I said
- 1:48:24Speaker 4: that to you this morning. I said, these two bitting again.
- 1:48:27Speaker 4: Here's what you said to me. Don't believe everything you read.
- 1:48:31Speaker 4: This plays well into both Trump's and BB's favorite So
- 1:48:36Speaker 4: are you saying that this conversation didn't happen, or it did,
- 1:48:40Speaker 4: but it's not nearly as harmful as the press wants
- 1:48:44Speaker 4: you to believe. Uh.
- 1:48:46Speaker 5: Yeah, I think that that's exactly right. I mean, first go,
- 1:48:48Speaker 5: this is another report from Barak Revide. He's a reporter
- 1:48:52Speaker 5: that I think has gotten the story wrong more often
- 1:48:55Speaker 5: than any other journalists. You know, I tell people all
- 1:48:58Speaker 5: the time, they said, if somebody would get your tax
- 1:49:00Speaker 5: is wrong as your tax accountant time after time after time,
- 1:49:03Speaker 5: you probably wouldn't go back to them to do your
- 1:49:05Speaker 5: taxes again. But people keep going back to Barack Revid
- 1:49:09Speaker 5: like he's a reputable source on this, and he does
- 1:49:12Speaker 5: have sources, you know, I know Barackravid, and I'm sure
- 1:49:15Speaker 5: that somebody that you know, somebody came to them and
- 1:49:18Speaker 5: told him that that's what happened in that conversation. Does
- 1:49:21Speaker 5: that mean that that is what happened in the conversation,
- 1:49:23Speaker 5: doesn't mean that it was a tense conversation. I'm sure
- 1:49:26Speaker 5: that there's a lot of tension here. It's clear that
- 1:49:28Speaker 5: Trump wants there to be a ceasefire.
- 1:49:31Speaker 24: Between the United States and Iran.
- 1:49:33Speaker 5: Ron is trying to link up the israelis Bala conflict
- 1:49:39Speaker 5: into that ceasefire. So certainly there, you know, there's tension.
- 1:49:43Speaker 5: But for Natanielle, you know, we're getting attacked, you know,
- 1:49:48Speaker 5: non stop, and drones in the north.
- 1:49:50Speaker 15: You know, the things are blowing up in the north.
- 1:49:52Speaker 5: Of the country, and Israel's military doctrine has changed. A
- 1:49:55Speaker 5: ceasefire for Israel means that if we see because Baala
- 1:49:58Speaker 5: moving or firing, we're gonna fire back, or we're going
- 1:50:00Speaker 5: to fire back much harder. In terms of you know,
- 1:50:03Speaker 5: how does it play into everybody's hands. Well, it's clear
- 1:50:05Speaker 5: that Trump is not putting the military pressure on Yourn
- 1:50:10Speaker 5: right now, but Israel's able to do it by putting
- 1:50:13Speaker 5: the military pressure on Chris Baa and then Trump can say, look,
- 1:50:18Speaker 5: you know, I'm holding bb back, So that works in
- 1:50:20Speaker 5: Trump's favor as well.
- 1:50:22Speaker 4: Yeah, it is is a much different dynamic because you know,
- 1:50:26Speaker 4: you know, and it's not going to be attacking Cincinnati today.
- 1:50:29Speaker 4: You know, they're not going to be dropping bombs in
- 1:50:30Speaker 4: Brooklyn today, So you know, while we're taking care of
- 1:50:34Speaker 4: business because eventually, one day and maybe one day soon
- 1:50:38Speaker 4: they'll have the nuclear capacity to do that. The truth is,
- 1:50:42Speaker 4: it's not right now. And you guys, on the other hand,
- 1:50:44Speaker 4: every time somebody makes a move, you get bombed, you know,
- 1:50:48Speaker 4: whether it's Hesbola in the northern part of the country.
- 1:50:51Speaker 4: And obviously you want to deal with all these terror
- 1:50:52Speaker 4: proxies over the last three years, and that brutal day
- 1:50:55Speaker 4: on October the seventh, so it's kind of easier for Trump,
- 1:50:59Speaker 4: you know, the President, as you know, to call out
- 1:51:02Speaker 4: Bbe when the truth is, you guys, you guys, you
- 1:51:06Speaker 4: sitting right now on the phone with me in Jerusalem,
- 1:51:09Speaker 4: you guys are the ones taking rocket fire.
- 1:51:13Speaker 15: Yeah, that's right.
- 1:51:14Speaker 5: And even the situation with Iran directly, you know, it's
- 1:51:19Speaker 5: clear that Israel would prefer and was ready to go
- 1:51:22Speaker 5: fly side by side again with the United States to
- 1:51:25Speaker 5: try to finish this job, because we know that if
- 1:51:28Speaker 5: there's going to be any deal now that Iran's going
- 1:51:31Speaker 5: to continue to try to consolidate, is going to use
- 1:51:34Speaker 5: whatever dollars get released through sanctions relief and whatever rebuilding
- 1:51:39Speaker 5: money goes back into Iran, and there were talks to you,
- 1:51:42Speaker 5: we saw reports of as much as maybe three hundred
- 1:51:44Speaker 5: billion dollars if that will be released into Iran. We
- 1:51:48Speaker 5: know that some portion of that money is going to
- 1:51:51Speaker 5: be going to funding terror proxies, some portion is going
- 1:51:54Speaker 5: to go towards trying to extract that enriched geranium or
- 1:51:58Speaker 5: to rebuild the nuclear program, and some is going to
- 1:52:01Speaker 5: be poured back into developing smithsiles which are going to
- 1:52:05Speaker 5: be used against us. We know that they'll be used
- 1:52:07Speaker 5: against us because they have been used against us. So
- 1:52:09Speaker 5: we also understand that if you don't finish your job now,
- 1:52:13Speaker 5: you're just kicking the can down the rodet again. There
- 1:52:15Speaker 5: will be future rounds of this conflict. And so what
- 1:52:18Speaker 5: we're seeing now is that around is actually turning into
- 1:52:20Speaker 5: just another theater in this war. The same way that
- 1:52:23Speaker 5: we had intensive conflict in Gaza, then there was a ceasefire.
- 1:52:26Speaker 5: Then we go back. Then there's a ceasfire, and the
- 1:52:28Speaker 5: same thing in Lebanon there was a ceasfire. Now we're
- 1:52:30Speaker 5: fighting again. There'll be a ceasfire with Iran. But we
- 1:52:34Speaker 5: we had twelve days of war a year and a
- 1:52:36Speaker 5: half ago in June and now we have. We had
- 1:52:40Speaker 5: six weeks of war, you know, in February and March,
- 1:52:44Speaker 5: and we know that if there'll be a ceasefire, that
- 1:52:46Speaker 5: there's just going to be another round of this later.
- 1:52:48Speaker 4: Yeah, well hopefully much later. Because my daughter Ava arrived
- 1:52:51Speaker 4: in Tel Aviv this morning quite some buddy Alex. He's
- 1:52:54Speaker 4: actually staying at Johnny Daniel's house this week because he's
- 1:52:56Speaker 4: in New York, and I'll be there now in let's
- 1:53:00Speaker 4: in three weeks. I want to shift the conversation quickly
- 1:53:02Speaker 4: to New York. I know you guys wrote a whole
- 1:53:05Speaker 4: bunch of stories about me all over Israel, three different
- 1:53:08Speaker 4: papers the last couple of days, about how I called
- 1:53:10Speaker 4: out Mayor Mam Donnie. I said, Mam Donnie wants Jewish
- 1:53:13Speaker 4: people dead. I'm doumbling down on that until he comes
- 1:53:15Speaker 4: out and demonizes the Intafada. I'm gonna say, if you
- 1:53:18Speaker 4: want to globalize the Intafada, you want Jewish people dead.
- 1:53:21Speaker 4: So I'm not apologizing, I'm doubling down. That's the way
- 1:53:23Speaker 4: the mayor feels, That's how I feel about it. So
- 1:53:26Speaker 4: you guys wrote a whole bunch of stories. But why
- 1:53:28Speaker 4: I'm getting to this is is that he didn't go
- 1:53:30Speaker 4: to the parade, but Smotwich did. Beza Adels Smostrich, who
- 1:53:34Speaker 4: happens to be the Minister of Finance in Israel, and
- 1:53:38Speaker 4: Mam Donnie was pissed about it. He made comments on television.
- 1:53:41Speaker 4: He considers smo Twitch to be a right wing that's
- 1:53:44Speaker 4: really crazy. He's the guy responsible for genocide and all
- 1:53:47Speaker 4: these ridiculous allegations. Kathy Hoko, the Governor of New York,
- 1:53:52Speaker 4: even put out a tweet about Smotrich. Letitia James, the
- 1:53:57Speaker 4: Attorney General in New York. It reminded me ale of
- 1:54:00Speaker 4: the night they all came after me after I called
- 1:54:04Speaker 4: Mamdania a couple of names a couple of months ago.
- 1:54:06Speaker 4: One by one they line up for this creep, this mayor,
- 1:54:10Speaker 4: and they come at people in the past that was me.
- 1:54:14Speaker 4: Now it's Smotrich. What are your thoughts on New Yorkers
- 1:54:17Speaker 4: trying to take out the Minister of finance.
- 1:54:20Speaker 5: Well, but Saus Mootrich has been a very competent minister
- 1:54:23Speaker 5: of finance here. He's appreciated by many of the ministers
- 1:54:26Speaker 5: and the members of this coalition. You know, responsible for
- 1:54:29Speaker 5: a genocide that didn't happen.
- 1:54:30Speaker 24: Right, you.
- 1:54:33Speaker 5: Haven't had a genocide in Israel. But the man that's
- 1:54:35Speaker 5: responsible for the genocide is him. Even though he doesn't
- 1:54:38Speaker 5: control the military, he doesn't control the military policy. Uh.
- 1:54:42Speaker 15: And you know, you just have you just.
- 1:54:44Speaker 5: Have somebody that represents the views of a large portion
- 1:54:48Speaker 5: of the population here. It is so you know, to
- 1:54:50Speaker 5: the political rights for certain, does he believe very staunchly
- 1:54:54Speaker 5: in Jewish life and and uh in Judean Samaria? Absolutely
- 1:54:59Speaker 5: he does.
- 1:55:00Speaker 4: And so do I, by the way, so so so
- 1:55:01Speaker 4: do I. I'm sick of I'm waiting for the day.
- 1:55:05Speaker 5: Yeah, where should where should Jews live? They live than Judea.
- 1:55:09Speaker 4: Right, that's why it's that's why we're called Jews. I mean,
- 1:55:12Speaker 4: the guy one of these days and President Trump has
- 1:55:14Speaker 4: been the most courageous and greatest president by a mile.
- 1:55:17Speaker 4: Truman is one thousand miles behind him in terms of
- 1:55:20Speaker 4: what good he's been to Israel. But one of these days,
- 1:55:22Speaker 4: somebody has to be courageous enough for sovereignty and ju
- 1:55:25Speaker 4: Dayan Samaria. That's the bottom line. It's got to happen.
- 1:55:28Speaker 5: Yeah, And I think when Spokesus comes to the Israel
- 1:55:31Speaker 5: Day Parade instead of instead of beating down on him.
- 1:55:34Speaker 5: I mean, this is a man who number one loves Israel,
- 1:55:36Speaker 5: number two loves you dain Samaria, but number three loves
- 1:55:39Speaker 5: the US Israel relationship and believes very strongly in that.
- 1:55:43Speaker 5: That's why he came to New York to participate in
- 1:55:45Speaker 5: the Israel Day Parade. So he should be welcome with
- 1:55:48Speaker 5: open arms somebody who wants to actually strengthen the relationship,
- 1:55:51Speaker 5: not harm it, which is what Mamdanni and Opo and
- 1:55:54Speaker 5: others want to do. And unfortunately, I would even say
- 1:55:57Speaker 5: that there are that there are members of the Jewish
- 1:55:59Speaker 5: to Induisually they'd say, oh, we can't stand Smotors, we
- 1:56:03Speaker 5: can't stand ben Very. They're actually delegitimizing Israel and its
- 1:56:06Speaker 5: government by saying that all the time. You know, we
- 1:56:09Speaker 5: don't walk around saying, you know, left and right, you know,
- 1:56:11Speaker 5: we can't stand Marjorie tail or Green, and we can't
- 1:56:14Speaker 5: stand Thomas Massey, Like we don't. We don't just do
- 1:56:17Speaker 5: that all every minute. It's not always great for the
- 1:56:20Speaker 5: for the relationship between the countries to do that.
- 1:56:23Speaker 4: So on the way out, I know the elections are
- 1:56:25Speaker 4: coming up this fall, but the election was today, does
- 1:56:29Speaker 4: bb Ntanalo win for the fifth time in six trides.
- 1:56:33Speaker 5: Well, he's certainly in pole position. What we've seen over
- 1:56:36Speaker 5: here in Israel is that you can you can actually
- 1:56:38Speaker 5: win an election and not form a government.
- 1:56:41Speaker 18: Uh.
- 1:56:41Speaker 5: That's how enough Tilly Bennett became the Prime Minister when
- 1:56:44Speaker 5: ninety five percent of the country voted for somebody else.
- 1:56:46Speaker 5: Because ultimately you vote for a party in Israel, and
- 1:56:50Speaker 5: it's a parliamentary system with nine different parties that got
- 1:56:54Speaker 5: in into the Kanessa in the last election, and then
- 1:56:56Speaker 5: among the Kanessan members they determine, you know, who's going
- 1:56:59Speaker 5: to run the go government. So you got a lot
- 1:57:01Speaker 5: of parliamentarians here that don't want to see Nataniell form
- 1:57:04Speaker 5: the next government, and they could collude against him. But
- 1:57:07Speaker 5: he still remains by a very very solid margin, both
- 1:57:11Speaker 5: the most popular politicians in Israel and simultaneously the most unpopular.
- 1:57:16Speaker 19: Yeah.
- 1:57:16Speaker 5: But I think that as long as this war is
- 1:57:18Speaker 5: going on, and you need to work very closely with
- 1:57:22Speaker 5: President Trump in order to continue to deal with all
- 1:57:27Speaker 5: the diplomatic and military aspects of this war, Nathanial is
- 1:57:30Speaker 5: going to make the case that he's the most indispensable
- 1:57:33Speaker 5: man and the one that you need to see this
- 1:57:35Speaker 5: war through to its conclusion.
- 1:57:37Speaker 4: I actually think that's true too. I agree with that,
- 1:57:39Speaker 4: Alex Trainman, your beautiful. I'm going to see you in
- 1:57:42Speaker 4: your homeland in sixteen days. I can't wait sixteen days.
- 1:57:45Speaker 19: I'm looking forward to that.
- 1:57:46Speaker 18: Are you going to be using the studio for your broadcast?
- 1:57:49Speaker 4: I don't think so. I think I'm just actually going
- 1:57:51Speaker 4: to take time off. How about that. I'm just going
- 1:57:53Speaker 4: to go to Israel and speak at your policy summit,
- 1:57:56Speaker 4: and tour around a little bit, and spend some time
- 1:57:59Speaker 4: on the each maybe go back to the Dead Sea,
- 1:58:01Speaker 4: and actually take a week off. Every time I've gone
- 1:58:03Speaker 4: to Israel, I've done this show, I've had to slept
- 1:58:06Speaker 4: back and forth sometimes between you know, even Guyza one
- 1:58:09Speaker 4: morning to get back to do the show on time.
- 1:58:11Speaker 4: So I think this time, Alex, I'm all yours.
- 1:58:15Speaker 15: That sounds great.
- 1:58:16Speaker 4: Yeah, we can't wait a week for you. It's going
- 1:58:18Speaker 4: to be great. And we look forward to having a
- 1:58:20Speaker 4: Shabbat dinner with you and Sippy in at your house.
- 1:58:22Speaker 4: How about that?
- 1:58:24Speaker 5: Amazing?
- 1:58:24Speaker 14: Amazing?
- 1:58:25Speaker 5: All right, I'm gonna talk Seppy to start cooking.
- 1:58:27Speaker 4: Now, start cooking. Now. She's a great cook. She's tremendous
- 1:58:29Speaker 4: and your family's beautiful. We'll see you in sixteen days.
- 1:58:31Speaker 4: We'll talk before that. Alex Treman, thank you so much.
- 1:58:35Speaker 4: I love you too. God bless you.
- 1:58:37Speaker 18: There.
- 1:58:37Speaker 4: He is the CEO of JNS dot org, the only
- 1:58:41Speaker 4: place to get your information on Israel, the war, what's
- 1:58:44Speaker 4: going on, elections, jans dot org. And I'll be there,
- 1:58:48Speaker 4: like I just said, in sixteen days, Sid and.
- 1:58:52Speaker 3: Friends in the Morning on the Red Apple podcast network.
- 1:58:56Speaker 4: You know, I speak to a lot of people, including
- 1:58:59Speaker 4: the President, but a lot of people on this show
- 1:59:01Speaker 4: up and a lot of different policies. And we just
- 1:59:04Speaker 4: had Alex Treman on from Israel, for example. We cover
- 1:59:07Speaker 4: everything from the Knicks to Israel. You get it all
- 1:59:09Speaker 4: right here on Sitting Friends in the Morning. But when
- 1:59:11Speaker 4: it comes to the economy and what it really looks like,
- 1:59:16Speaker 4: I go to Cudlow. That's it. I don't listen to
- 1:59:18Speaker 4: Jamie Diamond sorry, or the Lackman, any one of these guys.
- 1:59:22Speaker 4: I got a Larry Kudlow, so here he is, my
- 1:59:25Speaker 4: dear friend, the brilliant Larry Kudlow. Larry, good morning, buddy, how.
- 1:59:28Speaker 19: Are you good?
- 1:59:30Speaker 18: Said?
- 1:59:30Speaker 19: Thank you. I'll never live up to it.
- 1:59:32Speaker 6: But you're very kind.
- 1:59:33Speaker 4: You certainly do live up to it. When the President
- 1:59:36Speaker 4: employs you because he's so impressed and you get the
- 1:59:39Speaker 4: ratings you get on radio and TV, you certainly live
- 1:59:42Speaker 4: up to it. And I got to tell you, I
- 1:59:44Speaker 4: love the fact. You know, listen, it's difficult enough to
- 1:59:46Speaker 4: be the Treasury secretary, but when you're trying to do
- 1:59:49Speaker 4: it during wartime and President Trump, because he's doing the
- 1:59:53Speaker 4: right thing and Iron has to face the economic issues
- 1:59:56Speaker 4: that he is, you're really to find And you say
- 2:00:01Speaker 4: this all the time, Larry, what a great Treasury secretary
- 2:00:05Speaker 4: Scott Pressing days right.
- 2:00:07Speaker 19: You know, Scott was my pick from day one, right
- 2:00:11Speaker 19: after the election in November twenty four, and I think
- 2:00:15Speaker 19: he's done a terrific job. And it's you know, it's
- 2:00:18Speaker 19: important because nobody can predict the future, and nobody could
- 2:00:24Speaker 19: have predicted the war. And he has stepped up and
- 2:00:28Speaker 19: stepped in and done things to bankrupt and economically and
- 2:00:37Speaker 19: financially choke off Iran that's never been done before. He's
- 2:00:42Speaker 19: using tools that the Treasury Department has that has never
- 2:00:48Speaker 19: been used or had never been used as aggressively as
- 2:00:53Speaker 19: he is using them. I mean, you know, once President
- 2:00:56Speaker 19: Trump gave him the direction. Basic it was Scott who
- 2:01:01Speaker 19: engineered the blockade. It was Scott who engineered the embargo
- 2:01:05Speaker 19: and using again Treasury tools. It's Scott, by the way,
- 2:01:11Speaker 19: who just took away almost one billion dollars in cryptocurrency
- 2:01:18Speaker 19: from the Iranian IRGC mala is the craziest radical Islamis
- 2:01:24Speaker 19: who were running that place into the ground. That's a
- 2:01:28Speaker 19: huge chunk. You know, they went offshore. They're stealing and
- 2:01:32Speaker 19: looting money from Iranian businesses and Iranian citizens and depositing it,
- 2:01:39Speaker 19: you know, in various banks in the Gulf and elsewhere.
- 2:01:44Speaker 19: And that includes this whole of nearly a billion dollars
- 2:01:51Speaker 19: of a cryptocurrency, which, ironically, if you go back, said
- 2:01:55Speaker 19: a lot of people argued a few years ago, and
- 2:01:58Speaker 19: I was in the White House, people were worried that,
- 2:02:01Speaker 19: you know, cryptocurrency could avoid jurisdiction, uh, you know, could
- 2:02:06Speaker 19: use it for drug money and other nefarious purposes.
- 2:02:10Speaker 4: Like like ransom money. Because we kept hearing during the whole
- 2:02:12Speaker 4: Nancy Guthrie shaga. But that's what the bad guys wanted
- 2:02:16Speaker 4: to do.
- 2:02:17Speaker 6: You know.
- 2:02:18Speaker 19: It turns out that the you know, improving technologies for
- 2:02:23Speaker 19: blockchains actually make it easier to follow uh crypto finance.
- 2:02:30Speaker 19: And so what Scott Besson and his team of Treasury,
- 2:02:35Speaker 19: some of whom are my old deputies at the National
- 2:02:38Speaker 19: Economic Council, what they've done is is kept a careful watch.
- 2:02:45Speaker 19: And now they've prosen it. They've seized it, and they've
- 2:02:48Speaker 19: seized all these bank accounts you know in countries that
- 2:02:52Speaker 19: you know, played both sides, such as Qatar or Oman
- 2:02:57Speaker 19: or others. And this has taken, uh, you know, taking
- 2:03:02Speaker 19: the financial guts out of the IRGC, which is just
- 2:03:06Speaker 19: what we need. It's terribly important that we deny rant money.
- 2:03:10Speaker 19: And now what you see is, you know, because they
- 2:03:12Speaker 19: can't sell any oil, which the Treasury Department uh engineered,
- 2:03:18Speaker 19: they can't sell any oil. So nobody's showing up. The
- 2:03:21Speaker 19: cops aren't being paid, The troops aren't being paid, the
- 2:03:24Speaker 19: police aren't showing up. It's fascinating and it's starting to
- 2:03:29Speaker 19: catch up. And you know, I think whatever President Trump
- 2:03:32Speaker 19: decides to do in terms of negotiating his red red lines,
- 2:03:36Speaker 19: which he seems to be holding fast on, this is
- 2:03:39Speaker 19: economic and financial starvation. And the guy behind this economic
- 2:03:45Speaker 19: fury is my house. Got Yeah, he's phenomenal.
- 2:03:49Speaker 4: St Yeah, and Trump says that he may have a
- 2:03:52Speaker 4: deal done as early as next week. And but there
- 2:03:55Speaker 4: is some fear, especially from Israelies. And you can appreciate
- 2:03:59Speaker 4: this because he runs has been the country that has
- 2:04:02Speaker 4: funded all those terror proxies hutis, Hesbola and Jumas. That
- 2:04:07Speaker 4: in this potential deal, the United States will loosen some
- 2:04:12Speaker 4: of the restrictions and sanctions. Larry Kudler and Iran will
- 2:04:16Speaker 4: get money. And when they get money, they have proven
- 2:04:19Speaker 4: time and time again it's not to feed the starving
- 2:04:22Speaker 4: people on the streets. It's not to build schools or hospitals.
- 2:04:26Speaker 4: They'll go right back to doing what they did before,
- 2:04:29Speaker 4: which is fun groups to kill Jews and Americans. You know,
- 2:04:33Speaker 4: that's a that's a fear out there.
- 2:04:35Speaker 19: Well, I think it is a fear, and I think
- 2:04:38Speaker 19: that would be a big mistake. You know, we were
- 2:04:42Speaker 19: just at at the Reagan Library, this economic conference where
- 2:04:46Speaker 19: I got that intent. But one of the key themes
- 2:04:50Speaker 19: that Reagan launched many many years ago, forty five years
- 2:04:55Speaker 19: ago when he was bringing down Soviet Communism was trust.
- 2:04:59Speaker 19: But they're five and the verification procedures here are going
- 2:05:04Speaker 19: to be very very important. I don't know what they are.
- 2:05:08Speaker 19: I am concerned about them. I agree with you, you
- 2:05:11Speaker 19: do not want to loosen any of these financial sanctions.
- 2:05:16Speaker 19: And there are rumors that part of a deal might
- 2:05:22Speaker 19: be twelve billion dollars in cash. How that money has
- 2:05:27Speaker 19: arrived at I don't know, but I don't want them
- 2:05:30Speaker 19: to have a nickel. Not a nickel. And then of
- 2:05:33Speaker 19: course the Iranians somehow believe that they have one hundred
- 2:05:38Speaker 19: and twenty billion dollars in frozen assets. Well, that's good,
- 2:05:41Speaker 19: that's those frozen assets. That's Scott that's been freezing offshore
- 2:05:45Speaker 19: bank accounts. Okay, keep the money. They must not get
- 2:05:49Speaker 19: the money. This should amount to unconditional surrender. The red
- 2:05:54Speaker 19: lines have to be in place, no nuclearization. The enriched
- 2:05:58Speaker 19: fuel has to leave it and go to the United States.
- 2:06:02Speaker 19: The hormos trade has to be reopened with no conditions,
- 2:06:06Speaker 19: no control by Iran and their missile program which they
- 2:06:10Speaker 19: have already started to rebuild correct during this cease fire.
- 2:06:14Speaker 19: That has to be curbed also, and all of this
- 2:06:18Speaker 19: talking to Jack Keane about it last night on the
- 2:06:21Speaker 19: TV show, all of this must have strict paragraphed by
- 2:06:25Speaker 19: paragraph verification, and you cannot let just a bunch of
- 2:06:30Speaker 19: u un inspectors come in. This has to be done
- 2:06:32Speaker 19: by Americans, presumably American troops.
- 2:06:35Speaker 4: One hundred percent agreed because we tried this before and
- 2:06:38Speaker 4: we know how that went. I do want to ask
- 2:06:40Speaker 4: you though about the economy here. This is a great
- 2:06:42Speaker 4: lotry Cudlough on ABC every weekend, and there's a great
- 2:06:45Speaker 4: job on Fox News every day. You know, I'll go
- 2:06:49Speaker 4: back to this movie. I really enjoyed Philadelphia when no
- 2:06:52Speaker 4: one knew about AIDS. You know, Tom Hanks was blaked
- 2:06:55Speaker 4: in that movie, and Denzel Washington was the attorney in
- 2:06:58Speaker 4: the movie, and you would say to the people that
- 2:07:01Speaker 4: we're trying to destroy Tom Anks, you which I speak
- 2:07:04Speaker 4: to me like I'm a first grader. And I gotta
- 2:07:06Speaker 4: tell you, Larry, with most of my listeners who used
- 2:07:09Speaker 4: to listen to the Woomorssias and talk about the giants,
- 2:07:11Speaker 4: but how I got onto coming here, they're not all
- 2:07:14Speaker 4: that savvu when it comes to the economy. So they
- 2:07:17Speaker 4: hear from one side that the economy is bad, that
- 2:07:21Speaker 4: interest rates are still too high, that inflation is still
- 2:07:23Speaker 4: too high, that you know that we're in trouble. And
- 2:07:27Speaker 4: then even Jamie Diamond has said that your friend Jamie,
- 2:07:29Speaker 4: but then they hear from Larry Cudlow. No, no, no, no, no, Actually,
- 2:07:33Speaker 4: the indicator show the economy is pretty good. So speak
- 2:07:36Speaker 4: to me like I'm a first grader, Larry Cudlow, is
- 2:07:39Speaker 4: the economy good or bad? Bottom line? With midterms now
- 2:07:43Speaker 4: just a couple of months away.
- 2:07:45Speaker 19: The one that hurt there was Boomer on the Giant Show.
- 2:07:51Speaker 19: That was a killer. I know, speaking as a diehard
- 2:07:54Speaker 19: Giants fan, But anyway, you know, the economy is business
- 2:07:59Speaker 19: is booming. I just want to say that because you
- 2:08:03Speaker 19: won't read about it. But business is booming. Business earnings,
- 2:08:09Speaker 19: profits are booming. That's why the stock market is booming. Actually,
- 2:08:15Speaker 19: the GDP, I know you can't eat GDP, but it's
- 2:08:18Speaker 19: a measure of the economy. The GDP is growing at
- 2:08:21Speaker 19: about three percent despite the bump up in oil prices,
- 2:08:26Speaker 19: which I might add incidentally, all prices are slowly coming
- 2:08:29Speaker 19: down as ships are passing through now the strait of
- 2:08:33Speaker 19: our most But the key point, even with gasoline at
- 2:08:38Speaker 19: the pump, and I get it, and it hurts some people,
- 2:08:42Speaker 19: and I do feel their pain on that, but it's
- 2:08:45Speaker 19: a very big economy and I've never seen such investment
- 2:08:49Speaker 19: going on, which is a tremendous, tremendous thing for the
- 2:08:53Speaker 19: future of the country. On the economy, look, just to
- 2:08:56Speaker 19: start with the stock market. People do I'm a stock
- 2:09:00Speaker 19: that how media types do not want to look at
- 2:09:02Speaker 19: the stock market, but that tells you whether there's confidence
- 2:09:06Speaker 19: or not. And it also tells you about the future.
- 2:09:09Speaker 19: The stock market is telling you that the economy is
- 2:09:12Speaker 19: going to be good in the future. That's why it's
- 2:09:15Speaker 19: breaking records. I mean you're looking at unheralded numbers for
- 2:09:19Speaker 19: the Dow fifty thousand, and the S and P seventy
- 2:09:22Speaker 19: five hundred. I mean, people with their four oh one
- 2:09:25Speaker 19: ks and iras are doing very very well right now.
- 2:09:29Speaker 19: You've got the AI Revolution, You've got all kinds of
- 2:09:34Speaker 19: investments across the board. Even manufacturing the last three or
- 2:09:39Speaker 19: four months has started to snap back. Just yesterday we
- 2:09:43Speaker 19: had the ISM's supply managers showing a fifty four percent,
- 2:09:50Speaker 19: which was much higher than anybody thought. I think it's
- 2:09:53Speaker 19: the third or fourth straight month. And I want to
- 2:09:56Speaker 19: make a point here profits which the left, because it
- 2:10:01Speaker 19: does show the health of business. The left Hag's business
- 2:10:03Speaker 19: mondominates business. But the fact of the matter is profits
- 2:10:07Speaker 19: are the mother's milk of stocks and the lifeblood of
- 2:10:10Speaker 19: the economy. So when you combine all these profits plus
- 2:10:16Speaker 19: tremendous increases in productivity for a variety of reasons, AI,
- 2:10:21Speaker 19: but not only AI, you've got yourself a very spiffy
- 2:10:25Speaker 19: economy that's probably growing around three percent despite the oil shock,
- 2:10:30Speaker 19: the temporary oil shock, and these prices will will come down.
- 2:10:35Speaker 19: I mean, you can look at one thing after another.
- 2:10:38Speaker 19: I mean business capital goods. You know, machinery equipment factories.
- 2:10:44Speaker 19: Last three months, orders are up nineteen percent at an
- 2:10:47Speaker 19: annual rate. Shipments are up twelve and a half percent
- 2:10:51Speaker 19: an annual You don't see those kind of numbers in
- 2:10:54Speaker 19: a slump, right, Sorry. And here's the thing. When business
- 2:10:59Speaker 19: is healthy, that means companies can hire workers and they
- 2:11:06Speaker 19: can pay them increased wages. This is so important. And
- 2:11:11Speaker 19: the cost of those wages are not inflationary. Unit labor
- 2:11:15Speaker 19: costs are only one point two percent. Labor costs are
- 2:11:19Speaker 19: rock bottom. Now, we have some inflation because of the
- 2:11:23Speaker 19: oil shop, Okay, but if you chop off, if you
- 2:11:26Speaker 19: chop off the inflation, you're really looking at I don't know,
- 2:11:30Speaker 19: maybe two and a half percent inflation. So is that
- 2:11:33Speaker 19: a little tiny bit too high? Yes, but it's not
- 2:11:36Speaker 19: cracking up the economy.
- 2:11:37Speaker 4: No, not much, No, not much. You know we were
- 2:11:40Speaker 4: at nine twelve.
- 2:11:41Speaker 19: Two, right. The FEDS target is too You look at
- 2:11:45Speaker 19: some of these measures from the Dallas Fed or the
- 2:11:48Speaker 19: Cleveland said that chop off the highs and the lows.
- 2:11:51Speaker 19: You're around two and a half percent. So my point
- 2:11:54Speaker 19: is this is an economy driven by low taxes. It's
- 2:11:58Speaker 19: an economy driven by a very light federal regulatory touch.
- 2:12:04Speaker 19: It's being driven by drill, baby, drill. Uh you know
- 2:12:07Speaker 19: you got your you got your oil. People are pouring
- 2:12:10Speaker 19: it onto oil and gas explorations and cracking and so forth,
- 2:12:15Speaker 19: except in some of these stupid blue states like Paris
- 2:12:18Speaker 19: in New York. But the fact is this stuff is
- 2:12:21Speaker 19: running the economy hot, it's running the economy of this
- 2:12:24Speaker 19: right now.
- 2:12:25Speaker 4: That's great, love to hear it. So I got about
- 2:12:27Speaker 4: three minutes to go. You mentioned mom, Donnie. So I
- 2:12:29Speaker 4: was on Brian Kilmead's television show One Box New Sunday Night,
- 2:12:33Speaker 4: and he said, sid, you were on with me before
- 2:12:35Speaker 4: you knew Mam Donnie was going to be banned with
- 2:12:38Speaker 4: the Jewish people. This was parade day. He said, Is
- 2:12:42Speaker 4: it even worse? I said, yeah, I can't imagine I'm
- 2:12:45Speaker 4: saying this, but it's even worse. So I want to
- 2:12:48Speaker 4: send it to you. From the economy standpoint, we knew
- 2:12:50Speaker 4: this guy's a communist, a socialist, got about the Jews
- 2:12:53Speaker 4: for a second. From the economy standpoint, since he's become mayor,
- 2:12:57Speaker 4: Larry Kudlough, is it even worse?
- 2:13:01Speaker 19: Well, yeah, I mean I think he hates business. He
- 2:13:05Speaker 19: is a socialist. It's kind of interesting to me this
- 2:13:08Speaker 19: latest flap over over housing. So he wants he wants
- 2:13:14Speaker 19: to actually take over the house. He wants more public housing.
- 2:13:17Speaker 19: It's old time socialism. It's like Joe Stalin or something.
- 2:13:21Speaker 19: Because the modern day socialists and the Democratic Party have
- 2:13:26Speaker 19: run businesses into the ground through exorbitant regulations. This guy
- 2:13:33Speaker 19: wants to actually take over the needs of production. I mean,
- 2:13:36Speaker 19: I haven't seen this since the nineteen thirties and nineteen forties,
- 2:13:40Speaker 19: and it's really quiet now if he's is he going
- 2:13:43Speaker 19: to get away with it?
- 2:13:44Speaker 18: Well he might.
- 2:13:45Speaker 19: I don't know. Business leaders, you know, most of these
- 2:13:49Speaker 19: guys are very tepid. They're kind of afraid to criticize him,
- 2:13:52Speaker 19: and meanwhile they're slowly just moving out of here all together.
- 2:13:56Speaker 19: So I'd say his economic threat and his anti business
- 2:14:01Speaker 19: uh pre elections are worse Again. He said all this
- 2:14:05Speaker 19: stuff when he ran It's right that we didn't believe it.
- 2:14:07Speaker 4: We didn't believe it right because he sounded so crazy.
- 2:14:10Speaker 4: So would you recommend to your friend Ken Griffin. I
- 2:14:12Speaker 4: know you've answered this before, but not on my show.
- 2:14:14Speaker 4: Would you recommend to your friend Ken Griffin? What are
- 2:14:17Speaker 4: you nuts? Because I know John katzimtit's on this show
- 2:14:20Speaker 4: yesterday said it publicly. Listen, I am limiting, especially my
- 2:14:25Speaker 4: real estate business, especially real estate. I am limiting it
- 2:14:29Speaker 4: in New York right now because of Mom Donnie. Would
- 2:14:32Speaker 4: you recommend to Ken Griffin take it to Miami.
- 2:14:36Speaker 19: Well, he's going to have to do what he's going
- 2:14:38Speaker 19: to have to do. I mean, you know, John Katsman
- 2:14:40Speaker 19: TV is a fact factulous businessman, wonderful human beings. The
- 2:14:44Speaker 19: fact is, uh, they're going to have to make decisions
- 2:14:48Speaker 19: and they have to act in the interests of their shareholders.
- 2:14:52Speaker 19: They have to act in the interests of their own business.
- 2:14:54Speaker 19: Look again, I come back to this point. The economy
- 2:14:58Speaker 19: is made up of business. If businesses are unhealthy because
- 2:15:04Speaker 19: the government is pressuring them or taking their profits away,
- 2:15:07Speaker 19: or over regulating them and increasing costs, you had to
- 2:15:11Speaker 19: protect yourself. You've got shareholders, you've got family members, you've
- 2:15:16Speaker 19: got proprietors. They have to do what's in the best
- 2:15:18Speaker 19: interest of their business. If that means moving out, then
- 2:15:23Speaker 19: so be it. I mean, I thought the best wrap
- 2:15:27Speaker 19: against Mandami's whole socialist approach was Jeff Bezos. He spared
- 2:15:35Speaker 19: no he spared no lane.
- 2:15:37Speaker 4: He was ripped him to peace.
- 2:15:40Speaker 19: And of course, you know, Bezos had to go through
- 2:15:43Speaker 19: this whole Amazon. Remember it was AOL and her pals.
- 2:15:47Speaker 4: It stopped AOC, right, AOC and that and that moron
- 2:15:50Speaker 4: von Braemer, those two idiots and queens. That cost us
- 2:15:53Speaker 4: jobs and money and who knows.
- 2:15:56Speaker 19: So you know, Look, the hottest places for business are
- 2:16:01Speaker 19: in the South and the Sunbelt, all right. Actually the
- 2:16:04Speaker 19: single biggest hottest place is probably the state of Texas.
- 2:16:08Speaker 19: But you've got Florida, you've got the Carolinas, you got
- 2:16:12Speaker 19: over in the Sunbelt, Arizona. I mean, those are the
- 2:16:15Speaker 19: places that are attracting capital, they're attracting people, and they're
- 2:16:20Speaker 19: attracting money. So you just got to do what you're
- 2:16:24Speaker 19: going to do. If Mondamie wants to hang New York,
- 2:16:27Speaker 19: look he's not getting local. Just as bad. She's just
- 2:16:30Speaker 19: a little Mundamie light. They're going to bankrupt the city,
- 2:16:34Speaker 19: and at some point you probably have to have some
- 2:16:36Speaker 19: kind of fiscal Emergency review board to come in. But
- 2:16:40Speaker 19: we'll see how this plays out. If he makes good
- 2:16:43Speaker 19: and the city council follows through, and the state legislature
- 2:16:46Speaker 19: follows through, then we're in a heap of trouble here
- 2:16:48Speaker 19: in New York. I hate to say it, because I've
- 2:16:51Speaker 19: lived in New York on and off for about fifty years,
- 2:16:53Speaker 19: frankly foot trips to Washington, d C. In between. But
- 2:16:56Speaker 19: the fact is there's no Hugh Carey to rescue us
- 2:17:00Speaker 19: right now. Okay, there's no George Pataki to rescue us
- 2:17:04Speaker 19: right now. Those are the big problems. Is I see
- 2:17:06Speaker 19: it even in ed Kotch. I see they're trying to
- 2:17:09Speaker 19: take away his bridge name. It's so stupid. Who's going
- 2:17:12Speaker 19: to rescue us? Every place you look you see socialism
- 2:17:16Speaker 19: this and socialism that, and then he won't go on
- 2:17:18Speaker 19: the Israeli parade and he rides a stupid bicycle, an
- 2:17:22Speaker 19: anti Semitic.
- 2:17:23Speaker 4: Right man, anti Semitic jerk. Well, the guy that the guy,
- 2:17:27Speaker 4: the guy that can save us, Larry is Bruce Blakeman.
- 2:17:29Speaker 4: He's the guy that can save us.
- 2:17:31Speaker 19: Yes, yes, no, I like Blakeman a lot. I like
- 2:17:33Speaker 19: Bruce Blakeman a lot. I mean my first choice was
- 2:17:36Speaker 19: always John Kats. I mean I wanted him to be
- 2:17:39Speaker 19: mayor or governor or something like that. But he's got
- 2:17:41Speaker 19: other fish to fry. But yeah, Blakeman is a very
- 2:17:45Speaker 19: good they're a good job in Nassau. And look we'll see.
- 2:17:49Speaker 19: I mean, at some point people get fed up. If
- 2:17:52Speaker 19: you're taking your livelihood away, people start to rebel. And
- 2:17:55Speaker 19: I'm not talking about the richest people. I'm not just
- 2:17:58Speaker 19: talking about the ken grip. The people who can least
- 2:18:02Speaker 19: afford the attack on business are the middle class, working folks, Hispanics, blacks,
- 2:18:10Speaker 19: blue collars. They're the ones that don't have enough money
- 2:18:14Speaker 19: to pick up and leave their business here and start
- 2:18:17Speaker 19: over again in let's say, in Dallas, Texas's that's right,
- 2:18:22Speaker 19: these are the ones. It's very important to understand it's
- 2:18:26Speaker 19: the blue collar working folks, middle class of all colors
- 2:18:31Speaker 19: who are hurt the most by this crazy socialism and
- 2:18:35Speaker 19: smothering of the economy. They're the ones.
- 2:18:37Speaker 5: Who are no.
- 2:18:38Speaker 4: I had this conversation on this show just yesterday with
- 2:18:41Speaker 4: our friend who's doing a great job running small businesses
- 2:18:44Speaker 4: Kelly Leffler, and she knows it. She knows it. Kelly said, listen,
- 2:18:48Speaker 4: I know we want to try to help those the
- 2:18:50Speaker 4: guy who owns a hardware store in Brooklyn who can't
- 2:18:53Speaker 4: just move to Dallas, the guy you're talking about. So
- 2:18:55Speaker 4: they're aware of it. The federal government and you are
- 2:18:58Speaker 4: an I am. But we'll see how it plays.
- 2:19:00Speaker 19: We're losing our we're losing our advantages on the stock exchanges,
- 2:19:05Speaker 19: on the currency, on the futures market. The heart of
- 2:19:09Speaker 19: the financial district is being ripped away because I mean,
- 2:19:13Speaker 19: Jamie Diamond builds this multi billion dollar office building on
- 2:19:18Speaker 19: Park Avenue, but meanwhile the majority of his staff now
- 2:19:22Speaker 19: is in Texas, not New York.
- 2:19:24Speaker 4: You can make it up true. I know, Lowry. I
- 2:19:26Speaker 4: think you're a beautiful man. You know that you're awesome.
- 2:19:28Speaker 4: I love you, everybody, dear, thank you for coming on
- 2:19:30Speaker 4: It's an honor and you're great every time.
- 2:19:32Speaker 19: Thank you so much, I said, take care, appreciate it
- 2:19:35Speaker 19: very much.
- 2:19:36Speaker 4: Keep up the great work. Lowry Cudboll right there on
- 2:19:38Speaker 4: WABC every weekend, Fox Business every day on Fox News.
- 2:19:42Speaker 3: Sid and Friends in the morning on the Red Apple
- 2:19:46Speaker 3: podcast network.
- 2:19:48Speaker 7: Rick Caruso seems like a Republican but ran as a Democrat.
- 2:19:51Speaker 2: How are you running?
- 2:19:52Speaker 12: Yeah, thankfully, it's a nonpartisan race. I don't have to
- 2:19:55Speaker 12: be either.
- 2:19:56Speaker 6: I have.
- 2:19:57Speaker 12: I'm a retistered Republican, but my support orders are all
- 2:20:00Speaker 12: Democrats because Los Angeles is all Democrats. All the people
- 2:20:03Speaker 12: financing me are Democrats, all the meetings I take every
- 2:20:06Speaker 12: day are Democrats. Democrats are very angry with what happened
- 2:20:10Speaker 12: to Los Angeles. They were fed a bunch of lies
- 2:20:13Speaker 12: by Mayor Bass, who said she was gonna literally solve homelessness,
- 2:20:17Speaker 12: she was gonna do all these things she didn't do,
- 2:20:19Speaker 12: so they all of the people that put her actually
- 2:20:21Speaker 12: in office are now behind me. So it's a non
- 2:20:24Speaker 12: partisan race. There's no letter next to either of our
- 2:20:26Speaker 12: names because the mayor is not supposed to represent a party.
- 2:20:29Speaker 12: They're supposed to make you sure your moms are safe,
- 2:20:32Speaker 12: your houses don't burn down, and your tax money is
- 2:20:34Speaker 12: going to your infrastructure, not to fund drug addicts. So
- 2:20:37Speaker 12: thankfully I have Republicans that love me, I have Democrats
- 2:20:41Speaker 12: who love me. I have Independence love me. Even some
- 2:20:43Speaker 12: socialists messaged me and they're like, hey, don't be so
- 2:20:46Speaker 12: mean to us.
- 2:20:47Speaker 4: Our eyes on two, in particular California, where again we
- 2:20:51Speaker 4: want Spencer Pratt to make the final two. Not gonna
- 2:20:54Speaker 4: be that easy. Everybody keeps saying it's going to be
- 2:20:56Speaker 4: Bess the incumbent, and Pratt. I don't know this DSA candidate,
- 2:21:01Speaker 4: this psycho, I'm Donnie with a vagina out there in
- 2:21:04Speaker 4: Los Angeles, Raman. She seems like a very, very formidable competitor.
- 2:21:09Speaker 4: So I don't know it's gonna be that easy for Spencer.
- 2:21:11Speaker 4: And then Steve Hilton wanting for governor. Both of those
- 2:21:14Speaker 4: jungle primaries taking place in California today. Pratt mayor, Hilton governor,
- 2:21:20Speaker 4: We're going to find out. Then you've got New Jersey,
- 2:21:22Speaker 4: and I've been pumping up Alex Sedan for months. Hopefully
- 2:21:26Speaker 4: he wins this fourth person primary today and takes on
- 2:21:29Speaker 4: Corey Booker come November. This other race in New Jersey's
- 2:21:32Speaker 4: got this, I guess alleged anti semi. Allegedly this guy
- 2:21:38Speaker 4: sided with the blind cheek or worked with him. I
- 2:21:40Speaker 4: don't know the story. What's his name, Hamway or something, a.
- 2:21:43Speaker 2: Ham Away, doctor ham Away. He's a plastic surgeon.
- 2:21:46Speaker 4: Sounds like a dick.
- 2:21:48Speaker 2: He might be, I don't know. I've never met him.
- 2:21:50Speaker 4: Yeah, but am I supposed to not believe everything I'm
- 2:21:52Speaker 4: young about this guy?
- 2:21:53Speaker 6: Well?
- 2:21:53Speaker 18: We know.
- 2:21:54Speaker 14: The stuff we know about him is that he's definitely
- 2:21:56Speaker 14: has an anti Israel campaign.
- 2:21:57Speaker 4: Okay, then we hate him. That's it, that's all. We
- 2:21:59Speaker 4: don't nothing else such it. You know, I'm done with
- 2:22:03Speaker 4: people in my life who are anti Israel and try
- 2:22:05Speaker 4: to sell me well, no, no, no, a anti zion is
- 2:22:07Speaker 4: not anti Israel, not anti Semi. Shut up. He's gonna talk.
- 2:22:11Speaker 4: If you talk to that person long enough, the one
- 2:22:13Speaker 4: who tells you I'm anti Zionist, but my anti sem
- 2:22:17Speaker 4: talk to them long enough, they're all exposed. They're all
- 2:22:19Speaker 4: anti Semites, every one of them except for my daughter.
- 2:22:22Speaker 2: She's not good.
- 2:22:25Speaker 15: Yeah.
- 2:22:25Speaker 14: Well, you know it's funny. He's trying to weave the
- 2:22:27Speaker 14: same thing that mom Donnie's doing.
- 2:22:29Speaker 2: Where I'm not. I don't believe his Zionism, but I
- 2:22:32Speaker 2: love the Jews right.
- 2:22:33Speaker 4: He loves us right so much. He's finding his bike.
- 2:22:35Speaker 4: So let's take a break and come back and talk
- 2:22:37Speaker 4: to the aforementioned alex Za Dan my choice. Great guy, guys.
- 2:22:41Speaker 4: He's all about freedom, whether it's religious freedom, whether it's
- 2:22:45Speaker 4: medical freedom. The mom's for liberties. They love this guy.
- 2:22:49Speaker 4: He's a big Trump supporter, he is pro Israel, he
- 2:22:53Speaker 4: loves Beebie. I mean, everything about this guy makes sense.
- 2:22:56Speaker 4: And he's good looking like me, and he's a TV guy.

- 2:23:31Speaker 15: for all the support you've given this campaign. I want
- 2:23:34Speaker 15: to thank all of the people who we brought on
- 2:23:36Speaker 15: board to this movement. Our job is close to the
- 2:23:39Speaker 15: finish line, but it's not over yet. New Jersey. Get
- 2:23:42Speaker 15: out there and vote. Get out there and vote for
- 2:23:44Speaker 15: Alex Adan for US Senate to revive and restore our
- 2:23:47Speaker 15: great Republican Party in our great state.
- 2:23:49Speaker 4: And you are voting your hometown, so people in that
- 2:23:53Speaker 4: whole neighboring area, right, I mean, I imagine the polls
- 2:23:57Speaker 4: will be pretty packed today. What do you think.
- 2:24:00Speaker 15: I mean, we've heard turnout solid in certain parts of
- 2:24:03Speaker 15: the state. I really hope that more people come out
- 2:24:06Speaker 15: and vote, because sometimes primaries can be like a little
- 2:24:08Speaker 15: bit low turnout. We don't need that. We need every
- 2:24:10Speaker 15: Republican to come out and send a statement that our
- 2:24:14Speaker 15: campaign is the best position to beat Corey Booker, and
- 2:24:17Speaker 15: our campaign is the strongest, the one to unite the
- 2:24:19Speaker 15: Republican Party.
- 2:24:20Speaker 4: I agree it is. And again, spending so much time
- 2:24:22Speaker 4: with you, you represent everything that we want as a Republican,
- 2:24:26Speaker 4: a mega guy WILLI I am your Trump supporter, your
- 2:24:28Speaker 4: po Israel without any any apologies. I love that about you.
- 2:24:32Speaker 4: The freedoms, religious freedoms, and all the health freedoms, I mean,
- 2:24:37Speaker 4: all the stuff that we've done together on this show,
- 2:24:40Speaker 4: and all of your friends in mine that have helped out.
- 2:24:43Speaker 4: Everything that you stand for is exactly what any good
- 2:24:47Speaker 4: Republican wants. So you've got to explain to some of
- 2:24:50Speaker 4: the listeners who may still be in their call right now,
- 2:24:53Speaker 4: Alex trying to figure out why, above and beyond the
- 2:24:56Speaker 4: fact that Sid likes him. That's big. Don't get me wrong,
- 2:24:58Speaker 4: Why Sid? Why is Alex Zadan the better choice of
- 2:25:02Speaker 4: the poor running in that primary? Today?
- 2:25:06Speaker 15: We are going to unite the Republican Party up and
- 2:25:09Speaker 15: down the ballot to bring it back from the devastation
- 2:25:11Speaker 15: that we saw in twenty twenty five. I am an
- 2:25:14Speaker 15: investigative reporter who has fought corruption before, and we know
- 2:25:17Speaker 15: how corrupt the Democratic Party is in the swamp of Washington,
- 2:25:21Speaker 15: in the deep state bureaucracy. You need to send me
- 2:25:24Speaker 15: to Washington to fight against that corruption. Corey Booker is
- 2:25:28Speaker 15: the tip of the corruption Iceberg. I am the one
- 2:25:31Speaker 15: who can make the case that he has been a
- 2:25:34Speaker 15: bad senator for New Jersey. His time is up. It
- 2:25:37Speaker 15: is time to have him back to wherever he comes from,
- 2:25:41Speaker 15: where he belongs, not in the United States. And a
- 2:25:44Speaker 15: Cory Booker has been getting a government paycheck since I
- 2:25:47Speaker 15: was in middle school, and those paychecks should end this year.
- 2:25:50Speaker 4: No, I can't stand the guy. Yeah, no, I remember
- 2:25:53Speaker 4: that one time he stood up there. I still have
- 2:25:55Speaker 4: no idea why for good? I don't care. But he
- 2:25:57Speaker 4: spoke with twenty six straight hours and he said nothing.
- 2:26:00Speaker 4: You know, he's a friend of Wall Streets. He you know,
- 2:26:02Speaker 4: he hangs out with movie stares and actresses and couldn't
- 2:26:05Speaker 4: care less about the everyday jersey. And I don't know
- 2:26:09Speaker 4: what he's done in new work.
- 2:26:10Speaker 5: Guy.
- 2:26:10Speaker 4: I just don't know what the guy he's done. But
- 2:26:12Speaker 4: the truth is, Alex, we got to win today before
- 2:26:15Speaker 4: we beat Corey Booker in November. There's not going to
- 2:26:17Speaker 4: be he Sir Dan Booker in November if we don't
- 2:26:19Speaker 4: win today. So what is your message to folks today?
- 2:26:23Speaker 4: We got to win this primary first.
- 2:26:25Speaker 15: Yeah, my message is very simple. I'm a regular guy.
- 2:26:29Speaker 15: I'm someone who wants to surf. I'm not running for
- 2:26:33Speaker 15: a title. I'm not running for a position. I'm not
- 2:26:36Speaker 15: running for anything other than to represent you in the
- 2:26:39Speaker 15: United States Senate. People have talked about the idea of
- 2:26:42Speaker 15: this race being unwinnable. I don't think that it is.
- 2:26:46Speaker 15: I don't believe that it is. I have things that
- 2:26:48Speaker 15: I want to do if and when I get to Washington,
- 2:26:50Speaker 15: pass the Save Act, fight corruption, revamp healthcare, and make
- 2:26:55Speaker 15: things more affordable for people, and protect those freedoms you
- 2:26:58Speaker 15: were talking about. Because I am your freedom guy.
- 2:27:02Speaker 4: Love that.
- 2:27:02Speaker 15: I am a guy who wants to get the government
- 2:27:05Speaker 15: out of your business to allow you to express yourself
- 2:27:09Speaker 15: and live the way you want to live as long
- 2:27:10Speaker 15: as you don't hurt anybody. That's our American way, that's
- 2:27:13Speaker 15: our American creed. The most destructive thing the Democrats and
- 2:27:16Speaker 15: liberals have done, there's a lot of them. One of
- 2:27:18Speaker 15: the most destructive things. It's this idea they have that
- 2:27:22Speaker 15: government gives you your rights. No, your rights come from
- 2:27:25Speaker 15: Almighty God, and it's the government's job to stay out
- 2:27:28Speaker 15: of the way as much as it can while still
- 2:27:30Speaker 15: assuring your safety.
- 2:27:31Speaker 4: I mean, so many of the people in your campaign,
- 2:27:34Speaker 4: around your campaign, I should say, have been on this
- 2:27:35Speaker 4: show from Victoria and others that you know, really taught
- 2:27:39Speaker 4: me a lot about a lot of the freedoms. Religious freedoms,
- 2:27:42Speaker 4: the vaccine issues, medical freedoms. These are all really really
- 2:27:46Speaker 4: important items. I mean I at this point, I talked
- 2:27:49Speaker 4: to doctor Oz, you know, and Bobby Kennedy and I
- 2:27:52Speaker 4: have a good relationship, and that has become very very
- 2:27:55Speaker 4: important to me. I don't think enough candidates out there
- 2:27:58Speaker 4: spend enough time on it. And to be honest, Alex,
- 2:28:01Speaker 4: you're the real deal. Like I heard a couple of
- 2:28:03Speaker 4: weeks ago that Corey Booker all of a sudden is
- 2:28:06Speaker 4: all about freedom, And give me a break, when did
- 2:28:08Speaker 4: that start. You're you're authentic, You're a You're an og
- 2:28:12Speaker 4: when it comes to this stuff, Alex Adan.
- 2:28:14Speaker 15: Right, Well, Corey Booker should get the OSCAR for performative
- 2:28:18Speaker 15: pandering in the United States Congress.
- 2:28:20Speaker 13: And there's actually a lot.
- 2:28:21Speaker 15: Of competition in that category this year, including Governor Mikey
- 2:28:24Speaker 15: Cheryl at Delaney Hall. Yes, I am authentic. I do
- 2:28:27Speaker 15: believe that you, your individual self, have the best position
- 2:28:31Speaker 15: to decide what is right for yourself and your family.
- 2:28:33Speaker 15: That's the way America is supposed to work. Government should
- 2:28:36Speaker 15: work for the people, not impose their will on the people.
- 2:28:40Speaker 15: And that's what I'm running to do.
- 2:28:41Speaker 4: And I did notice when I was themple that fundraiser
- 2:28:44Speaker 4: at Trump's place. Listen again, folks, in New Jersey right Republicans.
- 2:28:48Speaker 4: Trump's place in Coltsnack, and you had test of there.
- 2:28:52Speaker 4: He's terrific. And yeah, you know you had that young
- 2:28:54Speaker 4: kid there, he's seventeen years old. They but got his name.
- 2:28:56Speaker 15: What's his name, Colby Manion. He's been great for us.
- 2:28:59Speaker 4: I love that kid too. Reminds me of like a
- 2:29:01Speaker 4: b Billain Hollyhead and you know your cu jockiy Tobacco,
- 2:29:05Speaker 4: the whole crew. But I noticed there were some people
- 2:29:07Speaker 4: there too that were not necessarily MAGA Republicans, like sid Rosenberg.
- 2:29:12Speaker 4: I noticed that, So it actually gave me some hope
- 2:29:15Speaker 4: that some of these moderates, some of these moderates who
- 2:29:18Speaker 4: do lean right at the very least in New Jersey,
- 2:29:22Speaker 4: would look to a guy like you.
- 2:29:24Speaker 15: Yeah. I mean, I've already begun reaching out to all
- 2:29:27Speaker 15: different wings at this party because if I'm fortunate enough
- 2:29:29Speaker 15: to prevail tonight, I want to unite our party. Our
- 2:29:32Speaker 15: party has been riven by infighting for far too long.
- 2:29:35Speaker 15: We need to bring our party together because look, we're
- 2:29:37Speaker 15: outnumbered in New Jersey as Republicans. It's a simple math equation.
- 2:29:42Speaker 15: We need everybody on board to move forward and beat
- 2:29:45Speaker 15: the Democrats, and then we got to take a whack
- 2:29:46Speaker 15: at the Independence too and bring them on board.
- 2:29:49Speaker 4: So you know, you said, if we win tonight, and
- 2:29:51Speaker 4: obviously that's what I want. And i've certainly, you know,
- 2:29:55Speaker 4: been there for you as you've been here for me.
- 2:29:57Speaker 4: You've been great. Let me give you a worst case scenario, okay,
- 2:30:00Speaker 4: because it's out there. You're running against four people today.
- 2:30:03Speaker 4: Worst case scenario, you don't win tonight. You're a young guy.
- 2:30:07Speaker 4: You got plenty of strength, you got you got plenty
- 2:30:09Speaker 4: of vim and vigor. You're a good looking guy, step
- 2:30:13Speaker 4: all the right things. Is it fair to say that,
- 2:30:16Speaker 4: if God forbid you do lose tonight, that we have
- 2:30:18Speaker 4: not seen the last of Alexidan because some people do
- 2:30:21Speaker 4: it once and they go okay, no, thank you. I
- 2:30:24Speaker 4: have friends like Paul Diedle. He went familiar once. He
- 2:30:26Speaker 4: said number again, if God forbid you lose tonight, will
- 2:30:30Speaker 4: we see you again?
- 2:30:31Speaker 15: Yeah, you can't get rid of me that easily. Out
- 2:30:33Speaker 15: there making the case against Corey Booker and the woke
- 2:30:36Speaker 15: socialist mob that Democrats have become.
- 2:30:39Speaker 4: And the governor Mikey her I call her Mikey Mohammad Cheryl.
- 2:30:44Speaker 4: It's almost like she wants to be a radical Islam
- 2:30:46Speaker 4: So patly, I don't know she has done your state
- 2:30:49Speaker 4: no favorites either, Hashi.
- 2:30:51Speaker 15: No, I mean you talk about Governor Cheryl and her beliefs.
- 2:30:55Speaker 15: My experience, both reading what she said and personally interviewing
- 2:30:59Speaker 15: her when I was on News twelve is that she
- 2:31:00Speaker 15: believes in nothing and that her advisers are telling her
- 2:31:03Speaker 15: what to say the best position herself to be a
- 2:31:07Speaker 15: leader of the Democratic Party and god forbid, a nominee
- 2:31:09Speaker 15: for President of the United States. Oh my god, that
- 2:31:11Speaker 15: she's got the resume form. And I wrote an op
- 2:31:14Speaker 15: ed in the Washington Examiner this morning about how her performative,
- 2:31:17Speaker 15: theatrics at Delaney Hall, where she showed up there on
- 2:31:20Speaker 15: Memorial Day instead of honoring our wardad honoring illegal migrants
- 2:31:24Speaker 15: instead putting them first. How that stunt kicked off.
- 2:31:28Speaker 13: This powder tag situation, this horrible.
- 2:31:30Speaker 15: Situation around Delaney Hall where people have gotten hurt. And finally,
- 2:31:34Speaker 15: our state police are great New Jersey State Troopers. The
- 2:31:37Speaker 15: elite had to be called in for the governor by
- 2:31:40Speaker 15: the governor to basically rescue her political image. It's sad.
- 2:31:43Speaker 15: It's very sad that it went that way.
- 2:31:45Speaker 4: Oh my god. Yeah, she was there a Memorial Day.
- 2:31:47Speaker 4: There were others that were at a George Floyd monument
- 2:31:51Speaker 4: on Memorial Day. Instead of honoring our brave men and women,
- 2:31:55Speaker 4: our country is going silways. That's why we need you
- 2:31:58Speaker 4: to win tonight again. Final thirty seconds. Zadan out there
- 2:32:01Speaker 4: in New Jersey. Your message to potential voters on their
- 2:32:05Speaker 4: way to vote this morning.
- 2:32:08Speaker 15: We need to get our Republican Party into a position
- 2:32:11Speaker 15: of strength. I am the strongest candidate and the best
- 2:32:14Speaker 15: candidate to make the case. I have gone toe to
- 2:32:16Speaker 15: toe with Corey Booker before in interviews. I have fought corruption.
- 2:32:19Speaker 15: I have had results electing candidates, helping to elect candidates
- 2:32:23Speaker 15: to the school board and Assembly. Let's power forward. Let's
- 2:32:26Speaker 15: win tonight, and let's move on and take on Corey
- 2:32:29Speaker 15: Booker and shock the nation by turning New Jersey red
- 2:32:33Speaker 15: for a US Senate seed.
- 2:32:34Speaker 4: Good luck today, Handsome, Thank you so much, Thanks Ed.
- 2:32:37Speaker 4: See you buddy, Alex Zadan right there out in New Jersey.

- 2:32:44Speaker 4: country of favor and vote for that guy. I think
