Transcript
- 0:00Speaker 1: You just heard the news.
- 0:02Speaker 2: Now you'll find out what it all means. He smarts
- 0:06Speaker 2: alone on seven tenor hey, well to get through today,
- 0:13Speaker 2: that dirty little worm, Anthony Fauci is about to get
- 0:16Speaker 2: exposed once and for all. We'll get to that, and
- 0:20Speaker 2: we'll get to crazy Mom Donny and his scheme to
- 0:24Speaker 2: build the worst grocery stores ever. We'll get to Savannah Guthrie,
- 0:31Speaker 2: a new video from her. We'll get to, hey, Joe Biden.
- 0:35Speaker 2: Those tapes that were made of Biden are starting to
- 0:39Speaker 2: get released, and you'll start to hear what a vegetable
- 0:42Speaker 2: he was, how out of it Joe Biden was so
- 0:45Speaker 2: President Trump today, Well, he's meeting with Zelensky as we speak.
- 0:52Speaker 2: It's the funeral of Lindsey Graham today and the people
- 0:56Speaker 2: have flown in from all over the country and leaders
- 0:58Speaker 2: from all over the world for the Lindsey Graham funeral
- 1:02Speaker 2: that will be this afternoon. Right now, Graham's body is
- 1:04Speaker 2: at the Capital Rotunda and it's surrounded by members of Congress,
- 1:11Speaker 2: his fellow senators and all of that. And it's not
- 1:15Speaker 2: open to the public, but there's a big, big gathering
- 1:18Speaker 2: in the Capitol Rotunda right now to honor Lindsey Graham
- 1:21Speaker 2: ceremony honoring him, and then the funeral will take place
- 1:24Speaker 2: later today. So Zelenski has flown in for that. He's
- 1:27Speaker 2: meeting with President Trump right now in the Oval Office.
- 1:31Speaker 2: It's interesting the Vice President is not in that meeting.
- 1:34Speaker 2: You remember in the first meeting that was quite the confrontation.
- 1:37Speaker 2: It was JD. Vance who really went after Zelenski first.
- 1:41Speaker 2: He's not a meeting today. So it's a different Elenski
- 1:44Speaker 2: that comes to visit today. Back then it was a
- 1:48Speaker 2: broken down Zelenski coming to beg Trump for money and weapons.
- 1:53Speaker 2: Now it's a different Zelenski, Zelensky who is really led
- 1:58Speaker 2: his country brilliantly in this war, so much so that
- 2:02Speaker 2: he's slightly beating a Russia right now. And he's created
- 2:06Speaker 2: his own missile factories, his own drone factories, and he's
- 2:10Speaker 2: manufacturing drones like crazy. So he comes in this time
- 2:14Speaker 2: as a successful guy, as a winner. Trump will treat
- 2:17Speaker 2: him differently.
- 2:18Speaker 1: Now.
- 2:19Speaker 2: One thing he wants, he wants to start building Patriot missiles,
- 2:24Speaker 2: which belonged to the US. Of course, now he'll set
- 2:27Speaker 2: up his own factories build them himself. He just needs
- 2:30Speaker 2: a license for the technology and all of that. So
- 2:33Speaker 2: he is trying to get that out of President Trump.
- 2:36Speaker 2: Now it's possible they could make some kind of a deal.
- 2:38Speaker 2: We could use a lot of drones, and he's created
- 2:41Speaker 2: the biggest new drone factories in the world. So maybe
- 2:45Speaker 2: we'll give him that Patriot missile technology and he'll give
- 2:48Speaker 2: us some drones. So it's an interesting dynamic this time.
- 2:53Speaker 2: So the meeting was Zelenski right now, and then in
- 2:56Speaker 2: about a half hour action About an hour from now,
- 2:58Speaker 2: Zelenski will leave and incomes BB net, Yahoo, and obviously
- 3:04Speaker 2: net Nyahu wants permission to go all out after Iran.
- 3:11Speaker 2: Now he does have some stuff to offer. Remember it
- 3:14Speaker 2: was the combination of the US and Israeli forces that
- 3:18Speaker 2: was just absolutely amazing because we had, you know, the weapons,
- 3:22Speaker 2: the technology, and we had a lot of stuff, but
- 3:24Speaker 2: they had much better intelligence than anybody in that part
- 3:28Speaker 2: of the world. Boy, their intelligence was amazing. And he's
- 3:33Speaker 2: got some now that he might want to trade. Pick
- 3:36Speaker 2: Axe Mountain is the site of nuclear activity right now
- 3:41Speaker 2: in Iran. Pickaxe Mountain that's the one we're going to
- 3:44Speaker 2: target next. It's a it's a mountain that deep deep
- 3:48Speaker 2: underground has the nuclear activity, and it's believed actually net Ya,
- 3:53Speaker 2: who's going to come in with some intelligence to show
- 3:56Speaker 2: Trump the intelligence showing that they have gotten center for
- 3:59Speaker 2: you and brought them in and are loading them into
- 4:02Speaker 2: Pickaxe mountains. So he'll show that to the present. Now,
- 4:07Speaker 2: it's going to be a tough thing to blow it up.
- 4:11Speaker 2: You can't just blow up pick and you can blow
- 4:13Speaker 2: up the mountain, but this stuff is three hundred feet underground.
- 4:17Speaker 2: So there's something called a bunker buster that can go
- 4:21Speaker 2: way down in the ground, but it only goes about
- 4:23Speaker 2: two hundred feet down, so you still wouldn't get to it. Now,
- 4:26Speaker 2: you could, you know, use a bunch of them, make
- 4:29Speaker 2: a big two hundred foot hole and then another round
- 4:32Speaker 2: hits that and tries to go down. But it's tricky,
- 4:34Speaker 2: but most likely you'd have to send in ground troops.
- 4:37Speaker 2: Now the way that would work, and by the way,
- 4:38Speaker 2: this is on the drawing boards. If we have to
- 4:41Speaker 2: do this and we've had ground troops, we've had troops
- 4:44Speaker 2: on the ground Inn ran during this war twice already
- 4:48Speaker 2: and both times pretty successful. There's a way to protect them.
- 4:51Speaker 2: But it would you might say, well, how about the
- 4:54Speaker 2: Israeli troops going well. To get that nuclear stuff out
- 4:58Speaker 2: of there requires very, very, very specially skilled forces. We
- 5:03Speaker 2: have teams that know how to go in and recover
- 5:05Speaker 2: nuclear stuff out of rubble. We did it when Kadafi
- 5:09Speaker 2: gave up his nuclear stuff. We had to do it there.
- 5:12Speaker 2: But these forces have to go another way. They go in.
- 5:18Speaker 2: US troops set up a perimeter of two miles, a
- 5:21Speaker 2: circle for two miles guarded by US, guarded by planes, drones, everything.
- 5:26Speaker 2: It's called the circle of death. Anybody enters that circle
- 5:30Speaker 2: that killed instantly. And it's inside that circle that these
- 5:34Speaker 2: troops would would operate. But that's on the drawing board.
- 5:37Speaker 2: We won't if we'll ever get to that. So everybody's
- 5:39Speaker 2: in town to see the president. And then two o'clock
- 5:42Speaker 2: today the funeral of Lindsey Graham National Cathedral. The President
- 5:45Speaker 2: will head over there and it should be you know,
- 5:51Speaker 2: it should be interesting. You'll see it on television. Course
- 5:53Speaker 2: should be an interesting gathering of famous faces from all
- 5:57Speaker 2: over America. So, Mom, Donnie, he's really big on these
- 6:02Speaker 2: grocery stores. Wait till you see them. They are going
- 6:05Speaker 2: to be the crummiest, ugliest grocery stores you have ever seen.
- 6:12Speaker 2: You see the way the government runs, like the motor
- 6:15Speaker 2: vehicle Department that's going to be the taj Mahal, compared
- 6:18Speaker 2: to these grocery stores, Mom, DONI trying to be very
- 6:21Speaker 2: specific about what they'll have.
- 6:22Speaker 3: I'm proud to announce a collection of essential staples that
- 6:26Speaker 3: will be predictably thirty percent cheaper at all five of
- 6:29Speaker 3: our city run grocery stores.
- 6:33Speaker 2: Now, again, nobody does things worse than the government. And
- 6:37Speaker 2: in this case, you got a guy who never had
- 6:39Speaker 2: a job before mayor, who's like twelve years old, never worked,
- 6:43Speaker 2: who doesn't know what the hell he's doing, is incapable
- 6:46Speaker 2: of managing anything. So if you study this, this schema
- 6:50Speaker 2: is it doesn't even make any sense. Well, how do
- 6:53Speaker 2: they know how to run a grocery store? Well, they're
- 6:54Speaker 2: going to bring in a professional grocery store operator. They're
- 6:58Speaker 2: trying to sign up somebody right now. The proposal for
- 7:01Speaker 2: the contract that's been put out, it's like four hundred pages.
- 7:05Speaker 2: So they're looking for professional grocery store to come in
- 7:08Speaker 2: and run the thing. Now, who would this be a
- 7:11Speaker 2: professional grocery store operator. Well, it's somebody who's already operating
- 7:14Speaker 2: grocery stores all over New York.
- 7:16Speaker 4: So you might say yourself, well, instead of going through
- 7:21Speaker 4: the scheme of building this crappy grocery store, a grocery
- 7:25Speaker 4: store normally costs two million to build, Mom, Donnie's going
- 7:28Speaker 4: to spend forty million on this one grocery store.
- 7:32Speaker 2: This is money out of our paychecks, taxpayer money's going
- 7:34Speaker 2: to spend forty million when we've already got all these
- 7:37Speaker 2: grocery stores. Well, well, but the idea is to lower
- 7:40Speaker 2: the price thirty percent. Well, you could do it tonight.
- 7:44Speaker 2: You could actually go to you could pick out some
- 7:46Speaker 2: grocery stores all over in New York, and you could
- 7:51Speaker 2: simply say to the grocery store owners want you to
- 7:54Speaker 2: cut the prices thirty percent. In exchange, you won't have
- 7:57Speaker 2: to pay any taxes. Well, we'll eliminate your property tax
- 8:00Speaker 2: and we'll pay your rent for you. They could easily.
- 8:03Speaker 2: They would love that deal, and they'll lower everything thirty percent.
- 8:06Speaker 2: That way, he could start the whole thing tonight, and
- 8:08Speaker 2: to forego the rent and the property tax would cost
- 8:12Speaker 2: a fraction of the forty million. So this guy doesn't
- 8:16Speaker 2: know what the hell he's doing. He's got these schemes. Now,
- 8:19Speaker 2: what about the prices.
- 8:20Speaker 3: Thirty percent off adds up to real money for New Yorkers,
- 8:24Speaker 3: with an estimated ninety dollars saved on grocery bills each month.
- 8:27Speaker 3: That is more than one thousand dollars saved every year,
- 8:30Speaker 3: and just as important as money, those savings add up
- 8:34Speaker 3: to time. For many, that thirty percent discount is the
- 8:36Speaker 3: difference between an evening spent around the dinner table with
- 8:39Speaker 3: family or working another double shift to make ends meet.
- 8:43Speaker 2: Well, it's all sounds good again. As I said, you
- 8:46Speaker 2: could just eliminate property tax and rent on some grocery
- 8:49Speaker 2: stores and they could cut at thirty percent right there.
- 8:51Speaker 2: But the important thing to remember is you will never
- 8:55Speaker 2: ever live to see this grocery store he's building. It
- 8:58Speaker 2: will never happen. He's talking about twenty twenty nine. And
- 9:02Speaker 2: when the government says twenty twenty nine, that means twenty
- 9:04Speaker 2: thirty six. So it will never ever ever happen.
- 9:09Speaker 3: In the wealthiest city, in the wealthiest country in the
- 9:11Speaker 3: history of the world, no New Yorker should have to
- 9:14Speaker 3: worry about being able to afford to feed their family.
- 9:17Speaker 2: Yeah. Again, one of the reasons it costs so much
- 9:21Speaker 2: in a grocery store property tax, the rent is crazy,
- 9:25Speaker 2: all the fees, all the crazy stuff.
- 9:27Speaker 3: Here's how it will work. Once a month, our five
- 9:30Speaker 3: city Rung grocery stores will set prices for this core
- 9:32Speaker 3: set of goods at thirty percent below typical retail prices,
- 9:36Speaker 3: no exceptions, no gimmicks. The savings will last for the
- 9:40Speaker 3: entire month. That means no weekly fluctuations, nor sticker shock
- 9:43Speaker 3: at the checkout line.
- 9:45Speaker 2: Yeah, no gimmicks. But did you notice how you see
- 9:48Speaker 2: if you can pick it up again? There is a
- 9:49Speaker 2: gimmick in there.
- 9:50Speaker 3: Here's how it will work. Once a month, our five
- 9:53Speaker 3: city Rung grocery stores will set prices for this core
- 9:55Speaker 3: set of goods.
- 9:56Speaker 2: Ah, just for the core set of goods, which means
- 10:00Speaker 2: for all the groceries, course set of goods. Where he's
- 10:02Speaker 2: talking about eggs, bread, there's like five things that'll be discounted.
- 10:07Speaker 2: That's about it. Hey, By the way, it looks like mom,
- 10:10Speaker 2: Donnie has committed a crime again. You know you've got
- 10:12Speaker 2: a mayor who's committing crimes. He did want to he
- 10:15Speaker 2: committed a crime last week when he threatened to arrest
- 10:19Speaker 2: and lock up bb net Yahoo Net Yahu would be
- 10:23Speaker 2: coming here for the UN General Assembly. As one of
- 10:25Speaker 2: the foreign leaders in the General Assembly. They are protected.
- 10:30Speaker 2: There's federal laws protecting him. They have diplomatic immunity, they
- 10:34Speaker 2: have a special protection status. And if you read the law,
- 10:38Speaker 2: it would be a crime to arrest him. It would
- 10:41Speaker 2: be a crime to do anything like that. But if
- 10:43Speaker 2: you read the rest of the law, it actually says
- 10:46Speaker 2: to even threaten the world leader or try to intimidate
- 10:52Speaker 2: him is a crime under federal law. So obviously, mom
- 10:55Speaker 2: Donnie was trying to intimidate him and threatened him, threaten
- 10:58Speaker 2: to arrest him, so a criminal act. Now, yesterday, this
- 11:03Speaker 2: crazy mom Donnie. You know, he's got this a pier
- 11:06Speaker 2: to tear tax where if you have a you live
- 11:08Speaker 2: somewhere else, but you keep an apartment in New York.
- 11:11Speaker 2: He wants to put a tax on it, which is
- 11:13Speaker 2: crazy right there. But even if you're going to do that,
- 11:16Speaker 2: you know what, just put a tax on it. And
- 11:18Speaker 2: then he said you'll all be getting letters about them. Okay,
- 11:22Speaker 2: well you send a letter about the tax. Okay, fine.
- 11:25Speaker 2: Yesterday he unveils a city website that's a database of
- 11:30Speaker 2: all the apartments. He's going to tax all the pier
- 11:33Speaker 2: to tears. Now, if you live somewhere else, yet you
- 11:35Speaker 2: keep a nice apartment in New York. You're obviously pretty successful.
- 11:40Speaker 2: So he hates you for that, and he if he
- 11:42Speaker 2: thinks you're wealthy, he hates you. So he's putting out
- 11:45Speaker 2: he's already put out a database of all the addresses,
- 11:48Speaker 2: the names and addresses of all these apartments. And if
- 11:52Speaker 2: you look through this database, there's some famous names in there.
- 11:55Speaker 2: Anna win Tower, Woody Allen, Cynthia Nixon is big supporter.
- 12:00Speaker 2: But these are celebrities and he's releasing their names and
- 12:03Speaker 2: their addresses. Now, this is called doxing, or if you
- 12:07Speaker 2: want to get somebody, they do this to Supreme Court
- 12:10Speaker 2: justices and ice agents that put put out their address
- 12:13Speaker 2: and so you can go terrorize them. But this doxing
- 12:16Speaker 2: is a crime. So a lot of people think, Mom, Donnie,
- 12:19Speaker 2: releasing the names and addresses of all these people is
- 12:22Speaker 2: another crime. So that would be two crimes in two
- 12:26Speaker 2: weeks from Mom Donnie. It's absolutely crazy. Hey, the Joe
- 12:31Speaker 2: Biden tapes are starting to come out. Biden was, oh,
- 12:38Speaker 2: this was for a book, he was writing a book. No,
- 12:42Speaker 2: this was the prosecutor. The prosecutor was interviewing him. And
- 12:46Speaker 2: it was a very fuzzy Biden. Now this is when
- 12:50Speaker 2: he was This is a few years ago. Listen to
- 12:52Speaker 2: Biden trying to answer questions. Now, these are the tape.
- 12:57Speaker 2: This is the documents that he stole. If you're the
- 13:03Speaker 2: president of the United States, the classified documents belong to you.
- 13:06Speaker 2: You're the one that's classified them. You can take them,
- 13:09Speaker 2: you can take them home, you can read them. But
- 13:12Speaker 2: if you're just a senator or even a vice president.
- 13:16Speaker 2: But if you're let's say you're a senator, you're not
- 13:17Speaker 2: allowed to take the classified documents. You can read them
- 13:21Speaker 2: in a special secure facility in Congress, you can't take
- 13:24Speaker 2: them out of there. The fact that he packed them
- 13:27Speaker 2: up and took them all home is actually a crime.
- 13:29Speaker 2: So he put them in boxes. He took seven thousand
- 13:32Speaker 2: classified documents, had some in his office, some of his
- 13:36Speaker 2: den some in his garage. But he's claiming he just
- 13:39Speaker 2: found them. This is a Biden being interviewed by a prosecutor.
- 13:43Speaker 5: He just found all the classified stuff downstairs. I wrote
- 13:48Speaker 5: the President. I had written forty page memorandum arguing against
- 13:55Speaker 5: deploying and just some troops to Iraq, I mean to Afghanistan.
- 14:00Speaker 5: On the grounds that it wouldn't matter.
- 14:04Speaker 2: Can't imagine Joe Biden trying to write a forty page
- 14:07Speaker 2: handwritten note, I don't think so.
- 14:10Speaker 6: Was I gonna ask you something else?
- 14:13Speaker 2: You get a lot of this, he just forgets, he
- 14:14Speaker 2: doesn't know where he is.
- 14:17Speaker 6: Was he gonna ask you something else? Oh gosh, I
- 14:28Speaker 6: can't think of what it is.
- 14:29Speaker 2: Yeah, a lot of that all through there. So, hey,
- 14:33Speaker 2: we'll get to a crazy little worm, Anthony Fauci. He
- 14:38Speaker 2: his diaries reveal all kinds of crap about him, all
- 14:41Speaker 2: kinds of lying. He even lied about the death rate deliberately.
- 14:45Speaker 2: But he's going to get exposed tomorrow by Rand Paul.
- 14:48Speaker 2: He's going to be called in to testify again. So,
- 14:51Speaker 2: uh so we got a lot to get to it. Hey,
- 14:52Speaker 2: don't forget. Starting next week on Monday, this show will
- 14:56Speaker 2: be another hour. It's ten to noon right now, but
- 14:58Speaker 2: starting next week it's going to be nine to noon.

- 15:05Speaker 2: this show will begin at nine o'clock, so it'll be
- 15:07Speaker 2: nine to noon, not ten to noon. It's another hour anyway.

- 15:15Speaker 2: Advertisers want it. Everybody wants it? So well, why not

- 16:14Speaker 7: I usually go to bed around ten o'clock.
- 16:17Speaker 2: Whoa now? You are you in Las Vegas?

- 16:28Speaker 7: You know what that means in Indian? In plenty of water.
- 16:36Speaker 9: Mark.
- 16:37Speaker 7: They're going to open the data center out here. I
- 16:41Speaker 7: heard Steve Moore the other day. I mean, the people
- 16:44Speaker 7: are up in arms here, you know, because of the
- 16:47Speaker 7: water problem and the noise.
- 16:50Speaker 2: You know, well they do make noise late at night.
- 16:52Speaker 2: But how close is it to you?
- 16:55Speaker 7: Well, it's not going to be terribly far, but you know,
- 16:57Speaker 7: it's the desert and sounds travels. It's not like Steve
- 17:02Speaker 7: Moose said, it was by Dulles Airport. So and we
- 17:05Speaker 7: have them in Vegas, so the sound is muffoot with
- 17:08Speaker 7: all the other night.
- 17:09Speaker 2: But you know, in Nevada, you could put it so
- 17:11Speaker 2: far out in the desert, wouldn't bother anybody except you know,
- 17:13Speaker 2: like Joe Peshi and the DeNiro whatever they're doing out
- 17:16Speaker 2: there in the desert.
- 17:16Speaker 7: But I don't want to hit him in all.
- 17:21Speaker 2: Please, thanks for Colin. Let's go to John in Florida. John,
- 17:26Speaker 2: how you doing.
- 17:28Speaker 10: A mortar mark congratuation on the new pre hour show? Mondolmi.
- 17:32Speaker 10: Why don't they just report him on nine to eleven
- 17:35Speaker 10: and get the hell out of here once and for all.
- 17:37Speaker 10: With all the laws he's fricking. They should be able
- 17:40Speaker 10: to put a book case together, Ugio should be able
- 17:42Speaker 10: to deport him and or' his family, not for wherever
- 17:45Speaker 10: it came from that's.
- 17:47Speaker 2: All right, you know you they're not going to do it,
- 17:50Speaker 2: but he could. They actually could be arrested for he
- 17:52Speaker 2: did break a federal law last week. Threatening a visitor
- 17:56Speaker 2: to you in General Assembly, trying to intimidate a foreign
- 17:58Speaker 2: leader is actually ille when they're coming for the General Assembly,
- 18:01Speaker 2: they have a special protected status, so you could actually
- 18:05Speaker 2: arrest him. It does have a maximum three years in
- 18:08Speaker 2: prison for that particular crime. And this releasing the names
- 18:12Speaker 2: and addresses of the people with Pieta tears, that's called dosing.
- 18:17Speaker 2: A lot of people think that's a crime as well.
- 18:19Speaker 2: So well, let's go to rich and Myrtle Beach. Rich,
- 18:22Speaker 2: how you doing.
- 18:24Speaker 9: Hey? Thanks. Instead of having a democratic community now it's
- 18:26Speaker 9: the DSA community. They're all going to have. Nobody ever
- 18:29Speaker 9: goes to jail for anything. Fauci should be in prison.
- 18:32Speaker 9: You know, my father is going to be ninety nine
- 18:35Speaker 9: in November, and you talk to him during the day.
- 18:38Speaker 9: He still sounds more lucid than Joe Biden. And that
- 18:40Speaker 9: was five or six years ago when Biden was what
- 18:42Speaker 9: eighty years old is seventy nine years old or something.
- 18:45Speaker 9: It's actually, it's unbelievable. The scam, the first scam they
- 18:48Speaker 9: pulled in this country was getting Obama elected. The second
- 18:50Speaker 9: scam was a COVID thing, and the third scam was
- 18:54Speaker 9: as Joe Biden being anointed. Then they pulled the same
- 18:56Speaker 9: crap up there in Maine by appointing a new Senate
- 19:00Speaker 9: delegate without having a voting or a primary up there.
- 19:03Speaker 9: And there's just so much in the news. You can't
- 19:04Speaker 9: even keep up with this stuff right now.
- 19:06Speaker 2: Yeah, all right, Rich, good point. Hey, you know, he
- 19:10Speaker 2: makes a good point. Biden started to lose his mind
- 19:12Speaker 2: in the mid seventies, nineteen seventy five, and now, I
- 19:16Speaker 2: mean when he was seventy five years old. Everybody's forgetting something.
- 19:22Speaker 2: Biden had brain surgery twice in his life, and this
- 19:25Speaker 2: is years ago. This is the old kind of brain surgery.
- 19:28Speaker 2: Nowadays it's much much simpler, and they kind of like
- 19:31Speaker 2: drill a little hole. In the old days, they used
- 19:33Speaker 2: to cut your skull open and go to your brain.
- 19:37Speaker 2: He needed brain surgery. He had tumors and all kinds
- 19:40Speaker 2: of stuff. But they used to say back then, you know,
- 19:42Speaker 2: once you cut the head open and expose the brain
- 19:44Speaker 2: to air, it's never the same again. He had it twice,
- 19:48Speaker 2: so that would explain why the early dementia, why the
- 19:51Speaker 2: mind was so screwed up. Let's go to Chris in Manhattan. Chris,
- 19:56Speaker 2: how you doing.
- 19:57Speaker 8: Good morning. I'm good. Thanks, I'm happy about you your
- 20:00Speaker 8: extra hour. I just wish they would have made you
- 20:02Speaker 8: until one o'clock instead of starting at nine o'clock.
- 20:06Speaker 2: Well, that was my idea. Everybody wanted an extra hour.
- 20:10Speaker 8: Let's vote on that, because I mean, I like Curtis
- 20:12Speaker 8: and Menti and stuff.
- 20:13Speaker 2: But you can't vote.
- 20:14Speaker 8: I would prefer you.
- 20:17Speaker 2: Can't vote on it because.
- 20:18Speaker 8: I know, I know, I know, But that's what is
- 20:21Speaker 8: there any way I can talk?
- 20:22Speaker 2: Yes, sir is that uh, ten to one would be perfect.
- 20:28Speaker 2: But that's Buck and Clay. That's a big successful show.
- 20:32Speaker 2: They got ten million listeners.
- 20:34Speaker 9: No bid?
- 20:35Speaker 2: Okay, well but okay, but.
- 20:38Speaker 8: That's not what I called about. I want to talk
- 20:39Speaker 8: about the auto pen for a minute. All the nobody
- 20:42Speaker 8: is like acting on the fact that all these pardons,
- 20:46Speaker 8: including Fauci, were done by the auto pen, and Biden
- 20:49Speaker 8: probably has no idea that he did it. Okay, why
- 20:52Speaker 8: are we not pursuing I.
- 20:54Speaker 2: Don't know if you have access to news, but we
- 20:56Speaker 2: have come. We have been pursuing that the President announced
- 20:59Speaker 2: that alone while back. The Department of Justice is looking
- 21:02Speaker 2: in to see if they can prove which were auto
- 21:04Speaker 2: pens and they can't.
- 21:05Speaker 8: They can't tell by the ink and.
- 21:07Speaker 2: What's what's it'd be the same pen, the same inks.
- 21:11Speaker 2: But they have to find a way to do it.
- 21:12Speaker 2: But they have been looking at it. That process has
- 21:15Speaker 2: been underway. But now here's the thing with Fauci. Tomorrow,
- 21:20Speaker 2: Ran Paul's going to make him testify again. Now we'll
- 21:23Speaker 2: get to this in the next hour. Apparently Fauci out
- 21:26Speaker 2: and out lied about a lot of stuff, and his
- 21:28Speaker 2: journals prove that. So they're going to put him under
- 21:32Speaker 2: oath and he's gonna lie again. Now, the problem is
- 21:35Speaker 2: he has been pardon until they can undo that pardon.
- 21:38Speaker 2: Even if he lies under oath and commits perjury, it's
- 21:40Speaker 2: nothing that can be done to him. Now. He can't
- 21:42Speaker 2: take the Fifth Amendment because when you have a pardon,
- 21:44Speaker 2: you can't take the Fifth. But with that pardon, there's
- 21:48Speaker 2: nothing they get. All they can do is expose him
- 21:51Speaker 2: and just get it clear that he lied about a
- 21:53Speaker 2: lot of stuff. We'll get to that in the next hour.
- 21:56Speaker 2: But when we come back We'll talk to the greatest
- 21:58Speaker 2: columnist in America. We'll talk to Michael Goodwin next on
- 22:02Speaker 2: seven to ten. Wor Hostern New York, Mark Simone wor
- 22:11Speaker 2: Well the best columns in America. Michael Goodwin. You can
- 22:15Speaker 2: read his column every Sunday and every Wednesday in the
- 22:18Speaker 2: New York Post. And if you go to the New
- 22:19Speaker 2: York Post website, all of his columns are up there
- 22:21Speaker 2: and they're all wonderful. You should read them all. Michael Goodwin,
- 22:25Speaker 2: how you doing.
- 22:27Speaker 1: Good morning, than Mark?
- 22:28Speaker 9: Thank you.
- 22:29Speaker 2: Hey. You wrote about the White House Correspondence dinner. The
- 22:32Speaker 2: president who has more experience at roasts and roasting people.
- 22:37Speaker 2: He's great, But he didn't have his a game with
- 22:40Speaker 2: him Saturday night, did he?
- 22:42Speaker 1: No? I think it. It was a long speech, and
- 22:45Speaker 1: I think it was too long, which is why a
- 22:48Speaker 1: guy kind of Murphy at parts and didn't have a
- 22:51Speaker 1: Chris flavor to it. Also, you could see the audience
- 22:56Speaker 1: was tired. He spoke for an hour and twenty minutes
- 23:01Speaker 1: or so something like that, and that's a long time
- 23:05Speaker 1: for a dinner speech. And of course there was entertainment afterwards.
- 23:10Speaker 1: I mean, it was a long, long day. But look,
- 23:12Speaker 1: I think where the President went off track was in
- 23:16Speaker 1: personal insults to some of the journalists nasty, and also
- 23:22Speaker 1: in some of the political swipes at you know, Pocahontas
- 23:28Speaker 1: right for example. I mean, we've all heard that one
- 23:31Speaker 1: hundred times and they pretty best served out a campaign rally.
- 23:36Speaker 1: None of speech like that. You can't expect the journalists
- 23:39Speaker 1: to applause or laugh or in any way give consent
- 23:42Speaker 1: to that kind of thing. Nonetheless, his dean there was
- 23:47Speaker 1: very important, and that's what he showed, exceptional kind of
- 23:51Speaker 1: courage under fire and shaking hands and congratulating a journalist
- 23:57Speaker 1: who won awards for stories attacked him.
- 24:01Speaker 3: Uh.
- 24:02Speaker 1: So I thought that that was really big. That was
- 24:04Speaker 1: really big boys stuff of him to sit through that
- 24:08Speaker 1: and then shake their hands. That to me. But look
- 24:12Speaker 1: most important to Mark was him coming and the first
- 24:17Speaker 1: time he had dinted this annual event and also getting
- 24:20Speaker 1: the journalists to all stand and appreciate the police and
- 24:25Speaker 1: secret service who had prevented catastrophe in April when the
- 24:30Speaker 1: original version of the dinner was interrupted by would be assassin.
- 24:35Speaker 1: So I thought that was a unifying moment that the
- 24:39Speaker 1: president conducting.
- 24:40Speaker 9: Yeah.
- 24:41Speaker 2: Hey, but the reason was such a long evening, they
- 24:44Speaker 2: spent two hours giving themselves every award you could give anybody.
- 24:47Speaker 2: You know, Yeah, nobody has a bigger anger than Donald Trump.
- 24:50Speaker 2: But I can't picture him holding a ceremony given awards
- 24:53Speaker 2: himself for two hours, can you?
- 24:56Speaker 4: Yeah?
- 24:57Speaker 9: That's you know.
- 24:58Speaker 1: I I been to that dinner a few times, and
- 25:01Speaker 1: I stopped going in part because I was embarrassing that
- 25:05Speaker 1: the media, the media congratulating itself when the president is there.
- 25:12Speaker 10: I remember during.
- 25:13Speaker 1: Barack Obama's tendre he was giving out awards. He was
- 25:18Speaker 1: handing out the awards, and then all the fellowships they
- 25:24Speaker 1: give out sixty or seventy new intern types where they're
- 25:30Speaker 1: all introduced by name. There's just a lot of business
- 25:34Speaker 1: that takes place in a time and place where I
- 25:38Speaker 1: think it just deflects the focus from what should be
- 25:43Speaker 1: the purpose of this, which is once a year, the
- 25:47Speaker 1: media and the person they're covering, and look what happens
- 25:51Speaker 1: in New York, the inner circle all. But he has
- 25:54Speaker 1: something like that with the governor, but it doesn't become
- 25:57Speaker 1: a televised performance that goes on four hours.
- 26:03Speaker 2: Hey, Michael Goodwin, mayor Mom Donnie releasing the names and
- 26:08Speaker 2: addresses of the people with the pieda terras. That's they
- 26:11Speaker 2: call that doxing, releasing prominent people's names and addressed to
- 26:15Speaker 2: the public. That is, that's a crime. In my opinion,
- 26:18Speaker 2: how does he get away with this?
- 26:21Speaker 1: What's a good question. And you know, Margaret, I think
- 26:25Speaker 1: if I'm mariading this correctly, the list is not correct
- 26:30Speaker 1: in many regards in that people it is a primary
- 26:36Speaker 1: residence or in some cases, I mean, he would know
- 26:41Speaker 1: because the city has a tax returns. I got to
- 26:46Speaker 1: know from a friend who's on the list, and he said,
- 26:50Speaker 1: they're basically telling me I have to prove that I've
- 26:53Speaker 1: lived here, but they know that they had my tax
- 26:57Speaker 1: returns already. So the mayor sort of went fishing. And
- 27:02Speaker 1: I think it's pretty clear he did this for the
- 27:05Speaker 1: shock value alone.
- 27:07Speaker 2: So what is he up to with this doing like
- 27:10Speaker 2: arresting that Yeah, who, he knows he can't do that.
- 27:12Speaker 2: What what is the strategy of this shock thing? Is
- 27:15Speaker 2: it to rile up his base? What is he up to?
- 27:19Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean I've been thinking about that too, Mike.
- 27:24Speaker 1: It looks to me like a kind of desperate need
- 27:29Speaker 1: to justify himself. Uh, maybe to throw bait, you know,
- 27:36Speaker 1: to the chump, chump to his followers. There's a great
- 27:40Speaker 1: history of that line. When Bill Clinton was elected president
- 27:47Speaker 1: and welfare reform was a big part of that campaign
- 27:51Speaker 1: to recall and his HR or HW at that time,
- 27:59Speaker 1: you Services was justifying it was done at Chilia she
- 28:05Speaker 1: was the nominee. Yeah, And Pat Mornihan, the Senator, asked her,
- 28:10Speaker 1: I haven't heard anything about the welfare reform that the
- 28:15Speaker 1: president talked about in the campaign. And Leila had no answer,
- 28:20Speaker 1: and morning Han said, oh, I shoe, that was just
- 28:24Speaker 1: boob bait for the bubblers. And that's sort of what
- 28:30Speaker 1: this reminds you of. Boob bait for the bubblers, said
- 28:33Speaker 1: that his followers riled up with on any real substance
- 28:39Speaker 1: involved what.
- 28:42Speaker 2: But that was you know, Clinton did it to campaign
- 28:44Speaker 2: to win the office. Once you've already won the office
- 28:46Speaker 2: and you're there, you don't think it's some incredible plot.
- 28:50Speaker 2: He's got in his mind too. He's up to something
- 28:53Speaker 2: in the in the long run.
- 28:56Speaker 1: Well, it's a good point, Mark, I mean, I think
- 28:58Speaker 1: Kathy Hokl dies there's a lot of blame. I mean,
- 29:02Speaker 1: this tax is not necessary, Uh, it just funds a
- 29:08Speaker 1: lot of Mondani's crazy ideas, like the grocery stores that
- 29:12Speaker 1: gives thirty percent discount. The Post has a story that
- 29:16Speaker 1: all the money he's spending the grocery store, he just
- 29:19Speaker 1: given New Yorkers a ticket to Costco, a membership a Costco.
- 29:24Speaker 1: They could send the money there. Uh So it's all
- 29:28Speaker 1: about a show. It feels like this is all about
- 29:32Speaker 1: He's still campaigning, and I think that, Look, we expect
- 29:37Speaker 1: some degree of that from politicians, and they need to
- 29:40Speaker 1: keep their audience, their supporters engaged. But I think one
- 29:45Speaker 1: Mandani is doing is just creating lots of doubts about
- 29:49Speaker 1: his good will and creating the sense that he's out
- 29:53Speaker 1: to destroy the city. That's not a very good look.
- 29:58Speaker 2: All right, how much longer three and a half years
- 30:00Speaker 2: of this guy?
- 30:01Speaker 1: Well that's all right, Yes, I've been during the countime myself.
- 30:06Speaker 2: Now what about nine to eleven, This will be the
- 30:08Speaker 2: twenty fifth anniversary. This will be quite a day, and
- 30:11Speaker 2: he keeps insisting he'll be there. What is that going
- 30:14Speaker 2: to do to those families?
- 30:17Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, I think that is that's a big question.
- 30:21Speaker 1: We have what about six weeks to go on that
- 30:26Speaker 1: where families? I think if there is an outpouring more
- 30:31Speaker 1: and there's already been some, but I think if it
- 30:34Speaker 1: becomes a really big movement of racks, no only the families,
- 30:38Speaker 1: but the city in general, that's going to be a
- 30:41Speaker 1: defining moment for his mayor ot. I mean think about that,
- 30:45Speaker 1: right that this is nine to eleven, the greatest event,
- 30:50Speaker 1: most horror parilic event in New York City maybe ever
- 30:54Speaker 1: the single day. And to have the mayor not invited
- 30:59Speaker 1: by the family who suffered the greatest loss, who paid
- 31:02Speaker 1: the price of freedom on that day, to have them
- 31:06Speaker 1: say it, we don't want you there. You're part of
- 31:09Speaker 1: the problem, not the solution. That's a pretty dramatic event.
- 31:13Speaker 1: So it's still to be determined how it's resolved. But
- 31:17Speaker 1: right now this is this is a very hot pan
- 31:22Speaker 1: that's being cooked up.
- 31:24Speaker 2: Yeah. Well, well, Michael Goodwin, great stuff.
- 31:27Speaker 4: You got.
- 31:27Speaker 2: The next column is tomorrow. Any idea what it's gonna
- 31:30Speaker 2: be or we don't know yet.
- 31:32Speaker 1: Well some of the things we're talking about here.
- 31:35Speaker 2: Oh okay, oh good I'll be reading tomorrow. That you
- 31:38Speaker 2: get Michael Goodwin's column. It's every Sunday and every Wednesday
- 31:41Speaker 2: in the New York Post. And if you go to the
- 31:43Speaker 2: Post website. You can get all of his columns there.

- 32:19Speaker 2: to noon every day starting next week. Then of course
- 32:23Speaker 2: at noon you have Buck and Clay. They'll be here
- 32:25Speaker 2: at noon today with an excellent show. The Sean Hannity
- 32:29Speaker 2: Show Today the most listened to radio show in America's
- 32:34Speaker 2: I think he's actually at the Lindsay Graham funeral, but
- 32:37Speaker 2: he'll report in on the show later today. And then
- 32:40Speaker 2: at six o'clock you got Jesse Kelly. Then every night

- 32:46Speaker 2: Every night nine to midnight. It's Jimmy Fala right here
- 32:51Speaker 2: on seven to ten wor mar simone, he's on sevent
- 32:55Speaker 2: ten woo. Actually, flood warnings for New York flood warnings.
- 33:02Speaker 2: There's gonna be rain flood warnings until like two o'clock tomorrow,
- 33:07Speaker 2: So it's gonna happen this afternoon tonight. I'm looking at
- 33:10Speaker 2: the hour by hours, so apparently I'm on cuddlow later
- 33:14Speaker 2: today between four and five. They've timed this rain just
- 33:18Speaker 2: to screw me up. So it's gonna rain three to
- 33:21Speaker 2: four while I'm on my way there, it's gonna be raining.
- 33:24Speaker 2: Then it stops during the show from four to five,
- 33:27Speaker 2: and then as soon as I leave at five, it
- 33:29Speaker 2: says rain again. Just so let me see what else.
- 33:34Speaker 2: Eight o'clock. Actually, the biggest chance of rain is eight o'clock,
- 33:38Speaker 2: nine o'clock, ten o'clock. It's like eighty percent chance tonight,
- 33:43Speaker 2: and again flood warnings for all over the place in
- 33:47Speaker 2: New York. So just just beware of that. And if
- 33:49Speaker 2: you had a big problem last time with flooding, then
- 33:51Speaker 2: you really got to be careful because nothing has changed
- 33:56Speaker 2: probably and the city hasn't cleaned out those catch basins,
- 34:00Speaker 2: the streets the subway stations that flooded. You're going to
- 34:03Speaker 2: see it happen again tonight overnight. Well, we got a
