• 0:00
  Speaker 1: You just heard the news. Now you'll find out what
• 0:03
  Speaker 1: it all means. He smarks alone on seven tenor.
• 0:12
  Speaker 2: Hey, it's almost Friday and getting there. Hey, a lot
• 0:17
  Speaker 2: to get to. We'll get to the King's visit yesterday.
• 0:20
  Speaker 2: Not a single no Kings sign anywhere. We'll get to
• 0:24
  Speaker 2: your own Powell. We'll get to a Ran, We'll get
• 0:26
  Speaker 2: to James Comy, We'll get to a crazy mom, Donnie,
• 0:29
  Speaker 2: and a whole lot more coming up. So the King
• 0:33
  Speaker 2: is gone. He left fast. He was here yesterday the
• 0:37
  Speaker 2: World Trade Center ceremony where mayor Mom Donnie, I guess
• 0:43
  Speaker 2: greeted him. You know, if you met the king, what
• 0:49
  Speaker 2: the hell do you talk to him about? I mean,
• 0:50
  Speaker 2: I've actually talked to him a few times here and there.
• 0:53
  Speaker 2: There's not much to talk to him about. He loves clothes,
• 0:55
  Speaker 2: if you want to talk about Turnbull and Asser and
• 0:58
  Speaker 2: where he gets a suit. He loves talking about that.
• 1:00
  Speaker 2: Outside of that, there's not much. But you're supposed to be,
• 1:03
  Speaker 2: you know, warm and welcome to our country. We are
• 1:06
  Speaker 2: so happy to have you here. Whatever, Mom, Donnie would
• 1:11
  Speaker 2: what would he do if he met the King? What
• 1:13
  Speaker 2: would he say to him?
• 1:14
  Speaker 3: If I was to speak to the King. Separately from that,
• 1:17
  Speaker 3: I would probably encourage him to return the coin or diamond.
• 1:23
  Speaker 2: The glen or diamond is some something back when Britain
• 1:27
  Speaker 2: had colonized everything with some diamond in India that Britain
• 1:32
  Speaker 2: still possesses. And you know, of all the issues you
• 1:37
  Speaker 2: could talk to Britain about, out of all the major
• 1:40
  Speaker 2: issues they're supporting us in Iran, there's a million issues
• 1:45
  Speaker 2: we have with Britain.
• 1:46
  Speaker 3: If I was to speak to the king separately from that,
• 1:49
  Speaker 3: I would probably encourage him to return the coin or diamond.
• 1:53
  Speaker 2: I guarantee you he didn't know where the hell the
• 1:55
  Speaker 2: claim art diamond is or what it is. And when
• 1:59
  Speaker 2: first of all, when he met you could see the
• 2:00
  Speaker 2: look on his face when he met Mom Donnie. He
• 2:05
  Speaker 2: kind of looked at everybody and who is this? And
• 2:08
  Speaker 2: they had Mayor Bloomberg there, I think as they needed
• 2:11
  Speaker 2: an actual adult to talk to the king. So it's
• 2:15
  Speaker 2: pretty embarrassing that Mom Donnie was somewhere there on the sidelines.
• 2:18
  Speaker 2: But it was Mayor Bloomberg who laid the reef with
• 2:21
  Speaker 2: the king. It was Mayor Bloomberg who talked to him,
• 2:25
  Speaker 2: who was basically the host of this whole thing. Now,
• 2:28
  Speaker 2: Mayor Bloomberg has quite a relationship with Great Britain. Bloomberg
• 2:33
  Speaker 2: has major, major offices in London, has for years, Bloomberg
• 2:36
  Speaker 2: has lived in London's always had a place there, very
• 2:40
  Speaker 2: very very big on Great Britain. So and if Mom
• 2:44
  Speaker 2: Donnie had to ad said to him, returned the glater diamond,
• 2:50
  Speaker 2: I'm sure the King would have looked at him and said, no,
• 2:55
  Speaker 2: what a silly thing. I mean, this guy's the mayor
• 2:59
  Speaker 2: of New or how the hell did he get to
• 3:01
  Speaker 2: be the Mayor of New York. Except after that they
• 3:03
  Speaker 2: split up. Camilla went to the library for some literary
• 3:08
  Speaker 2: book event. They called it a literary event, the library literary.
• 3:15
  Speaker 2: The host showed her around was Sarah Jessica Parker, and
• 3:20
  Speaker 2: then there was Anna wind Tower. I really don't think
• 3:23
  Speaker 2: these are two great figures in American literature. But I
• 3:27
  Speaker 2: like the book section in the City, the original book,
• 3:30
  Speaker 2: but literature I don't know. So this was the literary luncheon.
• 3:35
  Speaker 2: Then the King went to Harlem to look at some
• 3:40
  Speaker 2: organic farming. And normally, when you're the King of the Queen,
• 3:44
  Speaker 2: they show you these things and you got to pretend
• 3:46
  Speaker 2: you're interested. But in this case, it is something that
• 3:49
  Speaker 2: Prince Charles for all those years was very big on organic,
• 3:53
  Speaker 2: this organic farming. He was very green all that kind
• 3:57
  Speaker 2: of stuff. And then I don't know where, they disappeared
• 4:00
  Speaker 2: for a couple hours, and then they came to Christie's
• 4:04
  Speaker 2: Auction House in Rockefeller Center for a big gala, a
• 4:09
  Speaker 2: dinner auction. It was to be a massive event and
• 4:14
  Speaker 2: everybody was there and it was huge. It was at Christie's,
• 4:18
  Speaker 2: but I noticed the King and Queen stayed about twelve minutes.
• 4:22
  Speaker 2: They were not there that long. You know. It said,
• 4:24
  Speaker 2: they'll be a cocktail reception, there'll be an auction, they'll
• 4:29
  Speaker 2: be a gala dinner. But if you were watching carefully
• 4:32
  Speaker 2: in that cocktail reception, they kind of disappeared. They got
• 4:35
  Speaker 2: out of there pretty fast. It didn't last long, the
• 4:37
  Speaker 2: whole thing, but they continued along with this great gala dinner.
• 4:42
  Speaker 2: And you know, interestingly, they had the state dinner at
• 4:44
  Speaker 2: the White House the night before and there's a million
• 4:49
  Speaker 2: people that were I mean not a million, but the
• 4:51
  Speaker 2: people were there put a million pictures on Instagram of
• 4:54
  Speaker 2: everything that happened. Brett Baar was there, Laura Ingram a
• 4:58
  Speaker 2: lot of media people, Marie Barbaromo, Senator McCormick, a lot
• 5:02
  Speaker 2: of senators, and they all posted all the pictures they
• 5:05
  Speaker 2: took that night. I notice one thing. It's two long tables,
• 5:10
  Speaker 2: like a horseshoe kind of thing. So everybody are these
• 5:14
  Speaker 2: very very long tables. So most people at the long,
• 5:18
  Speaker 2: long table, you're miles away from the king. And then
• 5:23
  Speaker 2: noticing people took pictures with each other, but nobody had
• 5:26
  Speaker 2: a picture with the king, so apparently he just stayed
• 5:28
  Speaker 2: up in the front, never went around greeting everybody. But
• 5:33
  Speaker 2: tomorrow today they're in Virginia. They'll visit a park, a
• 5:38
  Speaker 2: national park, they'll visit a horse farm. You see, you
• 5:44
  Speaker 2: might be thinking, you I'd love to be the king.
• 5:45
  Speaker 2: Could you imagine being the King of England? Oh my god,
• 5:48
  Speaker 2: the King of England. This is what you do all day.
• 5:51
  Speaker 2: They take you to national park and show you around,
• 5:55
  Speaker 2: and you got to pretend you're interested. Then they take
• 5:57
  Speaker 2: you to a horse farm. I mean, you could be
• 6:01
  Speaker 2: interested in horses. I think she is, but you know,
• 6:06
  Speaker 2: after you've toured four hundred horse farms around the world,
• 6:08
  Speaker 2: it's not that exciting. So you got and you got
• 6:10
  Speaker 2: to pretend you're interested the whole time, and then I
• 6:14
  Speaker 2: think that's it. Yeah, then they'll leave, they'll go back
• 6:17
  Speaker 2: to Great Britain. I'm sure they'll be back soon. He
• 6:19
  Speaker 2: was actually, he's actually been here a lot. He was
• 6:22
  Speaker 2: here in twenty fifteen, he was here in twenty eleven,
• 6:25
  Speaker 2: he was here in two thousand and five. She doesn't
• 6:28
  Speaker 2: come that often, but it was quite an exciting visit.
• 6:34
  Speaker 2: It looked good. I mean, the conversation not too cinhilating,
• 6:38
  Speaker 2: but it looked good. Hey, Jerome Powell, he's out as
• 6:43
  Speaker 2: FED chairman. Kevin warsh took one step forward yesterday to
• 6:47
  Speaker 2: getting confirmed. It looks like he will get confirmed. He's
• 6:50
  Speaker 2: a good choice. He's everybody's choice. President Trump wanted him,
• 6:53
  Speaker 2: and all the top guys. You know, we'll talk to
• 6:55
  Speaker 2: Steve Moore later about this, but Kevin Hassett and Scott
• 7:01
  Speaker 2: Bessant and all the top financial guys wanted Kevin Wareh.
• 7:05
  Speaker 2: So it'll be him now. When you take over as
• 7:08
  Speaker 2: the FED chairman, the other chairman leaves. Technically he's still
• 7:11
  Speaker 2: on the board, but he leaves. It's just tradition. Paul says,
• 7:15
  Speaker 2: he's not leaving. He's going to stay. On the board.
• 7:18
  Speaker 2: Now this is like the tenant you can't get out.
• 7:20
  Speaker 2: You got to go to landlord tenant court. So this
• 7:23
  Speaker 2: is embarrassing. Paul's going to stay, he said it has
• 7:25
  Speaker 2: to do with the criminal investigation. But they've dropped the
• 7:29
  Speaker 2: criminal investigation. That turned it over to an inspector general,
• 7:33
  Speaker 2: which is the appropriate thing to do. But he still
• 7:34
  Speaker 2: won't leave.
• 7:35
  Speaker 4: I've said that I will not leave the board until
• 7:37
  Speaker 4: this investigation is well and truly over, with transparency and finality,
• 7:42
  Speaker 4: and I stand by that.
• 7:43
  Speaker 2: Yeah, now they can torture him out. He can stay
• 7:46
  Speaker 2: on the board, but they can torture him out. They
• 7:49
  Speaker 2: could just never let him speak in the meetings. They
• 7:51
  Speaker 2: can move his parking space to two miles away, they
• 7:56
  Speaker 2: can take his locker away. They can do stuff to
• 7:58
  Speaker 2: get him out of there. But he's a bad guy.
• 8:01
  Speaker 2: He's the Komy of the FED. Speaking to Komy yesterday.
• 8:08
  Speaker 2: Komi was brought in yesterday. He surrendered to the FED
• 8:11
  Speaker 2: yesterday on charges he threatened to kill the president in
• 8:15
  Speaker 2: the Instagram post. Komy sixty five surrendered at Federal Courthouse, Alexandria, Virginia. Now,
• 8:22
  Speaker 2: the last time they charge, you know, they didn't get him.
• 8:24
  Speaker 2: But this is a little different because this is going
• 8:27
  Speaker 2: to be in the Eastern District of North Carolina. That's
• 8:30
  Speaker 2: a conservative Republican sort of US Attorney Republican sort of district.
• 8:35
  Speaker 2: So he won't get the crazy left wing jury that
• 8:38
  Speaker 2: will automatically let Comy out. So he's got a problem
• 8:41
  Speaker 2: with the venue. He's got Patrick Fitzgerald once again in
• 8:45
  Speaker 2: as his lawyer. Patrick Fitzgerald was a prosecutor a couple
• 8:52
  Speaker 2: of major, major cases. He was always considered a real
• 8:55
  Speaker 2: left wing sort of a prosecutor. But he'll be the
• 9:01
  Speaker 2: attorney now. I don't you know, they're both former US Attorney's,
• 9:05
  Speaker 2: former Justice Department. They're obviously close friends. I don't he
• 9:09
  Speaker 2: may not be charging him.
• 9:10
  Speaker 5: You know.
• 9:11
  Speaker 2: One of the things when you get charged with this
• 9:13
  Speaker 2: stuff and you have to fight it, it drains you.
• 9:15
  Speaker 2: It just cats you millions. But that Gerald may be
• 9:18
  Speaker 2: doing this for free. Now, Comy's a very very wealthy guy.
• 9:23
  Speaker 2: In between government jobs, he worked at hedge funds, so
• 9:26
  Speaker 2: he's a very wealthy guy. Lived in Connecticut for a while,
• 9:28
  Speaker 2: worked for Ray Dalya. Now he's going to argue that
• 9:34
  Speaker 2: he just came along saw these Seashells. But if you
• 9:38
  Speaker 2: check back, there was another incident way before that with
• 9:42
  Speaker 2: seashells on a beach that Komy Instagram. This is the
• 9:45
  Speaker 2: second time he's happened to come upon seashells. Something sounds
• 9:49
  Speaker 2: off fishy there. The real problem is Komy is actually
• 9:53
  Speaker 2: you know, when you see him as the prosecutor, he
• 9:56
  Speaker 2: just stands there all you know, somber. But in real life,
• 10:00
  Speaker 2: if he's an awkward, uncomfortable sort of a guy to
• 10:03
  Speaker 2: be around, he's a weirdo, which is fine if you're
• 10:07
  Speaker 2: the prosecutor. You know, you can be awkward and uncomfortable
• 10:09
  Speaker 2: and have no personality and be the prosecutor. But for
• 10:12
  Speaker 2: some reason a few years ago, he decided he would
• 10:14
  Speaker 2: become the next Kim Kardashian. He decided he would become
• 10:18
  Speaker 2: this fun influencer on Instagram. And when you're a big, weird, awkward,
• 10:23
  Speaker 2: somber guy, you don't know how to do it. You
• 10:25
  Speaker 2: can't do it, you have no I And over the
• 10:27
  Speaker 2: last couple of years, he has put out some of
• 10:29
  Speaker 2: the most cringe worthy videos where he's trying to be
• 10:32
  Speaker 2: cute or funny or cool or they're just I mean,
• 10:37
  Speaker 2: the most cringey videos. You've ever seen the Seashells thing.
• 10:40
  Speaker 2: Even if it was not a threat, it's just kind
• 10:43
  Speaker 2: of stupid. Calemy's going to argue that, you know, having
• 10:48
  Speaker 2: been working worked in restaurants, eighty six just meant get
• 10:51
  Speaker 2: rid of something unruly customer, throw them out. Okay, it
• 10:57
  Speaker 2: did mean that in restaurants. But also, as Trump points out, eighty.
• 11:00
  Speaker 6: Six, you know it's a mob term for kill him.
• 11:04
  Speaker 6: You know, you ever see the movies eighty six? The
• 11:08
  Speaker 6: mobster says to one of his wonderful associates, eighty six,
• 11:12
  Speaker 6: that means kill him.
• 11:13
  Speaker 2: There you go. I think I've seen every mob movie
• 11:16
  Speaker 2: a thousand times. I never did you ever once hear
• 11:18
  Speaker 2: in a mob movie eighty six? I don't think so.
• 11:22
  Speaker 2: Did you ever hear d Niro say eighty six? I've
• 11:26
  Speaker 2: never heard that. Did you ever hear Michael Corleone say
• 11:29
  Speaker 2: eighty six? And no, I've never heard that. But again,
• 11:33
  Speaker 2: from what I hear, this other stuff coming. They got
• 11:35
  Speaker 2: more on him. This is just to get the ball rolling.
• 11:38
  Speaker 2: There'll be other charges added into this later. But call
• 11:41
  Speaker 2: me a bad guy. He knew exactly what that meant.
• 11:44
  Speaker 7: A child knows what that meant if you're the FBI
• 11:48
  Speaker 7: director and you don't know what that meant, that meant assassination,
• 11:53
  Speaker 7: and it says it loud and clear.
• 11:56
  Speaker 2: Well, he's got a point there. If you're the FBI director,
• 12:03
  Speaker 2: you know, well it's vague, it's borderline, but still if
• 12:07
  Speaker 2: you're a former FBI director, you shouldn't be doing that.
• 12:12
  Speaker 2: It was again, call me a very very very awkward guy.
• 12:18
  Speaker 2: So you know that cop that was beat up in
• 12:21
  Speaker 2: the liquor store, I mean, not in the cop, the
• 12:23
  Speaker 2: guy the cops beat up in the liquor store. He's
• 12:26
  Speaker 2: now suing the city. You've seen the video. They think
• 12:30
  Speaker 2: he's the criminal they're looking for, and it was just
• 12:34
  Speaker 2: a bunch of very very very bad coincidences. He looked
• 12:39
  Speaker 2: exactly like the description, and part of the description is
• 12:43
  Speaker 2: the guy who's wearing like green neon shorts. So the
• 12:47
  Speaker 2: guy looks exactly like the guy and he's wearing green
• 12:50
  Speaker 2: neon shorts. I mean, the odds of this, so they
• 12:54
  Speaker 2: had pretty good reason to think that was the guy.
• 12:56
  Speaker 2: And I mean you could argue that this guy, I mean,
• 13:01
  Speaker 2: you can't even argue it is true. This guy is
• 13:03
  Speaker 2: committing a crime. He's resisting arrest. You can't do that.
• 13:06
  Speaker 2: You have to submit to the arrest and then get
• 13:08
  Speaker 2: it straighten out. But they are beating them and punching them,
• 13:13
  Speaker 2: and you know, when you got that video, it doesn't
• 13:16
  Speaker 2: look good, and you got Mamdani as mayor and you
• 13:18
  Speaker 2: got a certain atmosphere on now. So the guy was
• 13:23
  Speaker 2: not charged with resisting arrest and the cops have had
• 13:26
  Speaker 2: their guns and shields taken away. His name is Timothy Brown.
• 13:30
  Speaker 2: He's forty six. If you saw the video yesterday, he's
• 13:35
  Speaker 2: a sympathetic guy. He's an articulate guy. He'd be great
• 13:38
  Speaker 2: on the witness stand. That's a problem, you know, you'd
• 13:41
  Speaker 2: probably have a big problem if he testifies. Now, he
• 13:44
  Speaker 2: came in with a neck brace and he's on crutches
• 13:47
  Speaker 2: and he's bandaged up all over. Now people are pointing
• 13:50
  Speaker 2: out the day after the beating, when he was on TV,
• 13:53
  Speaker 2: he didn't have all of that stuff. It's like the
• 13:55
  Speaker 2: old gangsters in Casino. You know, as soon as they're indicted,
• 13:58
  Speaker 2: they got a neck brace, they got they're in a wheelchair.
• 14:02
  Speaker 2: So he's doing for one hundred million. The city will
• 14:07
  Speaker 2: probably settle it. They're not going to want to take
• 14:09
  Speaker 2: this to court. Again. He's a good sympathetic figure, a
• 14:13
  Speaker 2: good talker. They're not going to want to take this
• 14:15
  Speaker 2: to court, so they'll settle probably, I hate to say it,
• 14:17
  Speaker 2: probably fifty million. Now, normally it's settled this for twenty million.
• 14:22
  Speaker 2: But it's mom, Donnie. Uh. And you know how he
• 14:26
  Speaker 2: just throws away taxpayer money left and right. If he'll
• 14:30
  Speaker 2: spend fifty if he'll spend thirty million for a grocery store,
• 14:33
  Speaker 2: he'll spend fifty million to settle this. So this guy's
• 14:36
  Speaker 2: going to do very very very well.
• 14:39
  Speaker 1: Uh.
• 14:39
  Speaker 2: Price of oil we'll get to I ran coming up.
• 14:41
  Speaker 2: We'll talk about Iran. The price of oil, for some
• 14:44
  Speaker 2: reason just spiked briefly. It went up to one hundred
• 14:48
  Speaker 2: and twenty six dollars. Again. It was all over the news,
• 14:50
  Speaker 2: breaking news. Oil has spiked a one twenty six. This
• 14:53
  Speaker 2: is all you kept hearing, ending where you turned New
• 14:56
  Speaker 2: York Times. It just dropped twenty one points. No man
• 15:00
  Speaker 2: to this anywhere. The spy I didn't know what the
• 15:02
  Speaker 2: cause of spike. He went up one twenty six. It's
• 15:05
  Speaker 2: now one oh four. The spike is breaking news. That's
• 15:12
  Speaker 2: all you've heard on MSNBC. It just dropped twenty one
• 15:17
  Speaker 2: points and no mention of it. No mention of it.
• 15:19
  Speaker 2: They don't mention it. Anyway. We got a lot to
• 15:21
  Speaker 2: get to. We'll take some calls. Next eight hundred three
• 15:24

  Speaker 8: British Empire.
• 16:19
  Speaker 2: Yes he has They do realize this is not breaking news.
• 16:25
  Speaker 8: Well, you didn't mention it when you were talking about Bloomberg.
• 16:27
  Speaker 2: You don't really need to mention that he.
• 16:29

• 16:31
  Speaker 2: It was about two thousand people. You start as a
• 16:34

• 16:50
  Speaker 8: US Constitution states no royal titles.
• 16:55
  Speaker 2: Yeah, we know all this.
• 16:57
  Speaker 8: He brought it up. A lot of people don't know it.
• 17:03
  Speaker 2: I think it's not that urgent. Whenever you start with
• 17:07
  Speaker 2: you know, in twenty eighteen, it's not breaking news. Now
• 17:10
  Speaker 2: you actually you know, you get there's actually four levels.
• 17:13
  Speaker 2: But like, for instance, if you were the Beatles at
• 17:18
  Speaker 2: the height of their fame, they were knighted, Like you
• 17:20
  Speaker 2: go right to level one Beatles, you're really big, you're knighted.
• 17:25
  Speaker 2: They become knights. Patula Clark got an MBE. That's like
• 17:29
  Speaker 2: a notch down. That's member of the British Empire. She
• 17:32
  Speaker 2: may have been elevated since then, but it depends. Hey,
• 17:35
  Speaker 2: speaking of the Beatles, they were big in Europe, but
• 17:38
  Speaker 2: then they came and did the Sullivan Show, that famous
• 17:40
  Speaker 2: Sunday night and like, I think it's eighty million people
• 17:43
  Speaker 2: watched and the next day they you know, that was it.
• 17:47
  Speaker 2: They took America by some They were on the Ed
• 17:49
  Speaker 2: Sullivan Show. Everybody in America saw them. Now, think about this,
• 17:53
  Speaker 2: if they came over here today, what would they do?
• 17:57
  Speaker 2: Where would they go? There's no variety shows in primetime.
• 18:01
  Speaker 2: They could go on The Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon.
• 18:04
  Speaker 2: That's about nine hundred thousand people, it's not eighty million.
• 18:08
  Speaker 2: They could go on Kimmel Fallon Colbert. They could go
• 18:11
  Speaker 2: on every night for a week and they'd reach about
• 18:15
  Speaker 2: maybe three million people. That's about it. There's no where
• 18:17
  Speaker 2: if they came to America, there's no where you could
• 18:19
  Speaker 2: go to do that.
• 18:19
  Speaker 4: Now.
• 18:21
  Speaker 2: The closest you could get to that today, believe it
• 18:24
  Speaker 2: or not, it's iHeart. When was the last time we
• 18:26
  Speaker 2: did this. We've done it once in a while. Once
• 18:29
  Speaker 2: in iHeart will do a special thing where all like
• 18:32
  Speaker 2: one thousand radio stations will play the same thing at
• 18:35
  Speaker 2: the same moment at one thirty eight thirty in the morning.
• 18:38
  Speaker 2: We did it a few years ago. Was it for
• 18:40
  Speaker 2: the new Billy Joel record? No, it's for something some
• 18:44
  Speaker 2: new recording had come out something, So on every iHeart
• 18:48
  Speaker 2: station in America, all at once. It got played at
• 18:51
  Speaker 2: eight thirty in the morning, and I think with that,
• 18:53
  Speaker 2: like sixty seventy million people heard it. But outside of that,
• 18:57
  Speaker 2: you can't reach that kind of an audience anymore. Let's
• 19:00
  Speaker 2: go to Mike and Florida. Mike, how you doing, Good morning, Mark.
• 19:04
  Speaker 9: Yes, Mike, it's funny you should play the Beatles, because
• 19:07
  Speaker 9: I was going to reference them in my comments about
• 19:09
  Speaker 9: Mamdani and that being that he's one of those dorks
• 19:12
  Speaker 9: who comes up with the most obscure trivial nobody cares
• 19:16
  Speaker 9: about fact and states it and people he thinks people
• 19:21
  Speaker 9: are gonna walk away and go that guy's a genius.
• 19:23
  Speaker 9: And I was going to the reference the Beatles. Reference
• 19:25
  Speaker 9: was going to be, it's like those people you can
• 19:26
  Speaker 9: meet at a Beatles convention and they have to be
• 19:29
  Speaker 9: the star of the convention. Did you know Wingo had
• 19:32
  Speaker 9: eight toes on one foot, you know, and one of
• 19:34
  Speaker 9: those things like okay, I guess you're the king And then.
• 19:38
  Speaker 2: Yeah, they do that with every artist. It's fanatics for
• 19:40
  Speaker 2: every artist. But that's a good point, yep, you're still there.
• 19:45
  Speaker 9: Yeah, yeah, yes, And so it shows you what a
• 19:47
  Speaker 9: lightweight Mandani really is because you know, it's like that
• 19:51
  Speaker 9: that we you know about giving back the diamond that
• 19:53
  Speaker 9: the British soul from India. Please nobody cares, well, Indians
• 19:58
  Speaker 9: don't care.
• 19:58
  Speaker 2: Yeah, you know what happens is down he's a very
• 20:00
  Speaker 2: highly educated Ivy League, went to the finest schools, the
• 20:03
  Speaker 2: finest Ivy League. And that's what happens when you go
• 20:06
  Speaker 2: to those things where you're one of those professors. You
• 20:08
  Speaker 2: know all kinds of useless knowledge about nothing that you
• 20:12
  Speaker 2: can't make a diamond in the real world. But they
• 20:15
  Speaker 2: spew it all the time, like they know about this
• 20:17
  Speaker 2: diamond from seventeen eighty two that nobody, I mean, they
• 20:21
  Speaker 2: just know all this stuff. Meantime, he becomes mayor of
• 20:24
  Speaker 2: New York. Has no clue how to run a city,
• 20:26
  Speaker 2: no clue how to build a grocery store. A grocery
• 20:28
  Speaker 2: store costs about as low as one million. Ald spends
• 20:34
  Speaker 2: a lot of money when they come to New York.
• 20:35
  Speaker 2: They spend three million for each grocery store. He's spending
• 20:38
  Speaker 2: thirty million. It's now weeks later and he still hasn't
• 20:41
  Speaker 2: figured out it's like ten times more than supposed to cost.
• 20:45
  Speaker 2: Hasn't figured it out, doesn't know what to do about it.
• 20:47
  Speaker 2: Let's go to Canon brooklyn Ken.
• 20:49
  Speaker 5: How you doing okay, Mark, to hear from you. Good
• 20:53
  Speaker 5: to talk to you again. Mark. I'm confused about this
• 20:55
  Speaker 5: correspondence dinner attempt on the President. Two things. First, I'm
• 21:00
  Speaker 5: watching this footage right now of this this this guy
• 21:03
  Speaker 5: run past like eight Secret Service agents. Not only did
• 21:07
  Speaker 5: they all freeze, but the one he was closest to
• 21:11
  Speaker 5: backed up and didn't proceed forward. It's the weirdest thing.
• 21:15
  Speaker 5: And then why I don't understand that when they get
• 21:18
  Speaker 5: all these the FBI director and the new Attorney General,
• 21:21
  Speaker 5: they're all like they're at the oscars congratulating everybody, what
• 21:24
  Speaker 5: a good job. I don't even get that.
• 21:26
  Speaker 2: Well, the problem is the setup outside. There's different divisions
• 21:31
  Speaker 2: of the Secret Service. That's the uniform division that runs
• 21:33
  Speaker 2: that outside. You're supposed to set up a zigzag. The
• 21:36
  Speaker 2: problem is they didn't do that, so it was a
• 21:39
  Speaker 2: straight line all the way down that corridor. But you're
• 21:42
  Speaker 2: supposed to. You know, when you go somewhere and you
• 21:44
  Speaker 2: have to turn this way, there's fences, and then when
• 21:46
  Speaker 2: you get there down you have to turn around and
• 21:47
  Speaker 2: go this way. Then you got to turn around and
• 21:50
  Speaker 2: go back this way, and you keep turning around. It's
• 21:52
  Speaker 2: a zigzag. The reason they do that is so you
• 21:54
  Speaker 2: can't get up any speed, Like the road that leads
• 21:58
  Speaker 2: to the military base entrance is always a zigzag. If
• 22:02
  Speaker 2: it were a straight line, you could get up so
• 22:04
  Speaker 2: much speed. So that's the problem. They forgot to set
• 22:07
  Speaker 2: up the zigzag properly with the fencing, and it was
• 22:10
  Speaker 2: just a straight hallway. So the guy was able to
• 22:13
  Speaker 2: get up a lot of speed running. A lot of
• 22:15
  Speaker 2: mistakes were made there and that a big one. And
• 22:18
  Speaker 2: had they've had that zigzag, he wouldn't have been running.
• 22:20
  Speaker 2: They would have stopped him about fifty feet earlier. Well,
• 22:24
  Speaker 2: when we come back, the great economist Steve Moore will
• 22:27
  Speaker 2: be with us next lots to talk to him about
• 22:30
  Speaker 2: coming up on seven to ten wor.
• 22:34
  Speaker 1: Mark Simo.
• 22:39
  Speaker 2: Well, Steve Moore, the great economists, the brilliant economists that
• 22:43
  Speaker 2: you should get his book, The Trump Economic Miracle. It
• 22:46

• 23:09
  Speaker 4: Hey, Mark, I'm doing well.
• 23:10
  Speaker 2: Thank you. It's uh.
• 23:12
  Speaker 4: You know, by the way, I was there on Saturday
• 23:14
  Speaker 4: night at the White House. Correspondences are I'm still sort
• 23:16
  Speaker 4: of shaking from that security event.
• 23:18
  Speaker 2: Wow.
• 23:19
  Speaker 4: It was amazing and the President was really I mean
• 23:22
  Speaker 4: when I watched his press conference afterward, I couldn't believe,
• 23:24
  Speaker 4: but you know I was. I was so shaken by it.
• 23:27
  Speaker 4: And he was the one they were trying to shoot at,
• 23:28
  Speaker 4: and he got up there and at amazing. You know,
• 23:33
  Speaker 4: his composure and his courage underfire is really something to
• 23:36
  Speaker 4: be admired, whether whether you're a liberal conservative, and no
• 23:39
  Speaker 4: matter what your political philosophy, he's an amazing guy.
• 23:43
  Speaker 5: Yeah.
• 23:43
  Speaker 2: One good thing about being an economist. You don't get
• 23:45
  Speaker 2: shot at a lot. It's not part of the.
• 23:50
  Speaker 7: Now.
• 23:50
  Speaker 4: They're usually just verbal shout out.
• 23:53
  Speaker 2: When that chaos broke out, when did you realize that
• 23:57
  Speaker 2: there's not going to be any dinner, this is not
• 23:59
  Speaker 2: going to resume.
• 24:01
  Speaker 4: Well, first of all, the Mark there was it was
• 24:03
  Speaker 4: clearly a security breach. You know, when I went, I've
• 24:05
  Speaker 4: been to about six or seven of those Whitehouse correspondence
• 24:08
  Speaker 4: diners over the year years. And you know there's two
• 24:11
  Speaker 4: thy five hundred people or so in that ballroom. And
• 24:15
  Speaker 4: when I went, I brought my I was a ticket
• 24:17
  Speaker 4: at a ticket. I was sitting with the Wall Street
• 24:19
  Speaker 4: journal people, and I went in and I got there
• 24:21
  Speaker 4: an hour in advance, because I thought there would be
• 24:23
  Speaker 4: a long line, like you know, the the you know,
• 24:26
  Speaker 4: Laguardi security line at the airport or something. And I
• 24:30
  Speaker 4: walked in in five minutes and I just flashed my
• 24:32
  Speaker 4: They said, where's your ticket. I showed them the ticket.
• 24:34
  Speaker 4: They didn't even ask me for an ID. I could
• 24:36
  Speaker 4: have given that ticket to a hobo on the street
• 24:38
  Speaker 4: and they could have gotten in, which I thought was
• 24:40
  Speaker 4: really weird. And then you know that when I got
• 24:46
  Speaker 4: into the ballroom, you know, with these twenty five hundred
• 24:49
  Speaker 4: other people, were probably about a hundred feet from where
• 24:50
  Speaker 4: the President was, you know he was. I was sort
• 24:54
  Speaker 4: of surprised he team. I thought he would maybe at
• 24:56
  Speaker 4: the end of the dinner come in and give his remarks,
• 24:58
  Speaker 4: you know, is because the humorous speech and then lead, well,
• 25:02
  Speaker 4: he was sitting up there on the stage right in
• 25:04
  Speaker 4: the middle. I thought, oh my god, he's just sitting
• 25:06
  Speaker 4: duck in case anyone was able to get a you know,
• 25:09
  Speaker 4: if a sniper somehow.
• 25:10
  Speaker 2: Got in there.
• 25:11
  Speaker 4: And so I had this weird premonition that this didn't
• 25:13
  Speaker 4: seem that safe to me. And then we had this
• 25:15
  Speaker 4: boom boom, and everybody freaked out, and you know, some
• 25:20
  Speaker 4: people called beneath the tables, and I crouched down. I
• 25:22
  Speaker 4: was looking over the president to make sure he was safe.
• 25:25
  Speaker 4: And right then, I mean, the service here servers were amazing.
• 25:28
  Speaker 4: They got him out of there in about twenty seconds.
• 25:30
  Speaker 4: But did you see the tape of him when they
• 25:32
  Speaker 4: were pushing him out. They have seen this that he stumbles,
• 25:36
  Speaker 4: you know. I think he tripped because they were trying
• 25:38
  Speaker 4: to push him out so fast, and I thought, oh
• 25:40
  Speaker 4: my god, all I saw was him stumble. I thought,
• 25:42
  Speaker 4: oh my god, he's been hit, you know. And so
• 25:44
  Speaker 4: for about the long was ten or fifteen minutes of
• 25:46
  Speaker 4: my life, we didn't know what was going on. We
• 25:49
  Speaker 4: didn't know that the president was safe. And then they
• 25:50
  Speaker 4: finally told us, you know, the president was safely escorted
• 25:53
  Speaker 4: out of the building. But you know it was people
• 25:56
  Speaker 4: were pretty calm for the most part. For the first
• 25:58
  Speaker 4: five minutes. It was pretty scary because he didn't know
• 26:00
  Speaker 4: whether there was a sniper with a rifle in there.
• 26:03
  Speaker 2: So nobody asked you for any ID. Did you get searched?
• 26:07
  Speaker 2: Did they search everybody.
• 26:09
  Speaker 4: From well no, we did go through a metal detector
• 26:11
  Speaker 4: like at an airport.
• 26:12
  Speaker 2: But yeah, but you got to search people, well, you
• 26:14
  Speaker 2: could have had something on you.
• 26:17
  Speaker 4: They didn't do that. It was the other thing that
• 26:20
  Speaker 4: was really odd about it, Mark, was that you've probably
• 26:22
  Speaker 4: read about this because I was commenting about it. The
• 26:25
  Speaker 4: president was on the stage, the vice president was on
• 26:27
  Speaker 4: the stage. At the table next to me was the
• 26:28
  Speaker 4: Speaker of the House. There were four cabinet officers, five
• 26:31
  Speaker 4: of the six people in line of succession for the
• 26:33
  Speaker 4: presidency were in that room. It made no sense to me.
• 26:36
  Speaker 2: Yeah, no, it's like they need State of the Union
• 26:38
  Speaker 2: level security, that kind of security. But wow, well glad,
• 26:43
  Speaker 2: everybody's okay.
• 26:43
  Speaker 4: So this is, by the way, why Trump is right.
• 26:45
  Speaker 4: We've got to build the ballroom which will be very
• 26:47
  Speaker 4: safe and secure, and Trump can view those kinds of events,
• 26:50
  Speaker 4: or the future presidents will be able to do those
• 26:52
  Speaker 4: kind of speeches in a safe environment. And incidentally, you know,
• 26:56
  Speaker 4: I know you probably want to talk about the economy,
• 26:58
  Speaker 4: but you know the significance of that Washington Hilton mark,
• 27:03
  Speaker 4: which was that's where in March of nineteen eighty one,
• 27:05
  Speaker 4: Ronald Reagan was shot. And I'll never forget that day either.
• 27:09
  Speaker 4: And I was a kid at a teenager at that time,
• 27:11
  Speaker 4: but you know the I walked right in the entrance
• 27:15
  Speaker 4: of that hotel where Reagan was walking out where he
• 27:18
  Speaker 4: got shot by Hinckley. So that's the second time now
• 27:22
  Speaker 4: we've had, you know, attempted assassination attempt.
• 27:25
  Speaker 2: In that hotel. Yeah, there's two assassination temps. They got
• 27:27
  Speaker 2: to make sure that they never use that hotel again.
• 27:30
  Speaker 2: I mean, it's just ridiculous. Or just changed the name
• 27:33
  Speaker 2: the assassination Hilton. I mean, how many buildings have had
• 27:36
  Speaker 2: two assassinations take attempts to take place? Just awful. So
• 27:42
  Speaker 2: now the king is still in Virginia. Did we learn
• 27:45
  Speaker 2: anything from this king's visit? Did do anybody any good?
• 27:50
  Speaker 4: Well, you know, first of all, I mean, this is
• 27:52
  Speaker 4: a king who is it is really heartbreaking to see
• 27:56
  Speaker 4: what has happened to the British umpire. I mean, what
• 27:59
  Speaker 4: was once the strongest nation in the world. They're basically
• 28:03
  Speaker 4: their economy is basically staggering right now, it's comatose. They've
• 28:09
  Speaker 4: had very little economic growth while our economy is exploded.
• 28:12
  Speaker 4: Over the last thirty years, we've beaten them in every
• 28:16
  Speaker 4: sphere of the economy, including the technology industry. And now
• 28:20
  Speaker 4: they've got to basically a socialist as their prime minister
• 28:23
  Speaker 4: in King Charles All He seems to care about climate change.
• 28:28
  Speaker 2: He's the king. Yeah, so hey, oil prices spiked briefly
• 28:35
  Speaker 2: went up to one twenty six, it's down to one hundred.
• 28:40
  Speaker 2: This closing the strait of Hormuse, it really doesn't hurt us.
• 28:43
  Speaker 2: We don't get any oil from there. It completely destroys
• 28:46
  Speaker 2: the RAN's economy. Why not just leave it closed for
• 28:48
  Speaker 2: a couple of months.
• 28:50
  Speaker 4: Well, you know, you're right that the two countries that
• 28:53
  Speaker 4: are most dependent on oil from the Middle East are China.
• 28:57
  Speaker 2: And India, and we don't. We get very little.
• 29:00
  Speaker 4: Although you know that when that strait is closed is
• 29:02
  Speaker 4: we've learned it affects the entire global price of oil
• 29:05
  Speaker 4: because it's a global commodity like gold is. But we
• 29:09
  Speaker 4: got to get it open. We got to get it
• 29:10
  Speaker 4: open quickly. And when we do, I don't know if
• 29:13
  Speaker 4: it's good. You know, I've been saying in a few weeks,
• 29:15
  Speaker 4: but who knows. At this point it's proven to be
• 29:17
  Speaker 4: a lot harder than we had thought. Then I think
• 29:20
  Speaker 4: we'll see, you know, gas prices migrate back down to
• 29:23
  Speaker 4: the you know, three to three twenty five a gallon,
• 29:27
  Speaker 4: and it has to happen because it's really hurting the economy.
• 29:29
  Speaker 4: We're seeing it migrate into other higher prices. So we
• 29:34
  Speaker 4: want to keep inflation down. We want affordability high, and
• 29:37
  Speaker 4: that's why we've got and infinitely mark on that. Thank god,
• 29:41
  Speaker 4: we have a president who's drill, baby, drill. I mean,
• 29:43
  Speaker 4: can you imagine if we had died in an office
• 29:46
  Speaker 4: and we weren't producing our own gas. I mean, we
• 29:48
  Speaker 4: would be paying nine dollars a gallon of gas. It's
• 29:52
  Speaker 4: and also, by the way it is, it is a
• 29:54
  Speaker 4: pretty amazing thing that the UAE has now dropped out
• 29:58
  Speaker 4: of OPEC. I think it's Trump and the and the
• 30:03
  Speaker 4: shale oil and gas people who really who finally have
• 30:08
  Speaker 4: blown up Opack.
• 30:10
  Speaker 2: So if we get rid of this happy day, yeah,
• 30:12
  Speaker 2: we get rid of this terrorist regime in Iran, which
• 30:14
  Speaker 2: would be a dream come true, and we get rid
• 30:16
  Speaker 2: of Opak, what will the future look like price wise,
• 30:20
  Speaker 2: oil wise, that could be amazing.
• 30:22
  Speaker 4: Could you know, Look, there's so much oil and gas,
• 30:24
  Speaker 4: and I remember people used worry about we're running out
• 30:26
  Speaker 4: of oil and gas. We're not running out of it,
• 30:27
  Speaker 4: we're running into it. So you could see gas prices
• 30:30
  Speaker 4: go back well below three dollars a gallon. Uh, and
• 30:33
  Speaker 4: that would be a wonderful thing. And we're the world's
• 30:35
  Speaker 4: you know, leading producer today. So uh, this is this
• 30:39
  Speaker 4: is we got to use all the energy we have, oil, gas,
• 30:43
  Speaker 4: nuclear power, coal, maybe when when appropriate, soil and when
• 30:47
  Speaker 4: use it all so we're not no longer you know,
• 30:50
  Speaker 4: depending on them at least oil.
• 30:52
  Speaker 2: Yeah. Hey, Steve Moore, this fraud that we saw in Minnesota,
• 30:56
  Speaker 2: we've uncovered this fraud a couple of billions. Well it
• 30:59
  Speaker 2: looks now we're going to find hundreds of billions of
• 31:01
  Speaker 2: this kind of fraud all over America, all over government.
• 31:05
  Speaker 2: How did that? Well that covered up?
• 31:07
  Speaker 4: So yeah, that's a great Yeah, that's a great point.
• 31:10
  Speaker 4: And the US General Accounting Office, which is the basically
• 31:14
  Speaker 4: the official auditor of all these trillions of dollars that
• 31:16
  Speaker 4: we spend in Washington. They just did a report yesterday
• 31:20
  Speaker 4: reporting and I think it was one hundred and eighty
• 31:22
  Speaker 4: five billion dollars in fraudulent payments. Now mark those are
• 31:26
  Speaker 4: only the fraudulent payments that they know about. It's probably
• 31:29
  Speaker 4: two or three times higher if people got away with
• 31:32
  Speaker 4: the fraudulent payments. So we have so much waste. I
• 31:35
  Speaker 4: believe that we could cut one trillion dollars out of
• 31:38
  Speaker 4: our budget if we got rid of fraud, duplication, if
• 31:41
  Speaker 4: we got rid of quote what they call quote improper payments.
• 31:44
  Speaker 4: Don't you love that improper payment? If you got rid
• 31:47
  Speaker 4: of all of that, we could balance this damn budget.
• 31:50
  Speaker 2: Yeah, you know, mom, Donnie's building his own grocery store.
• 31:54
  Speaker 2: Every major grocery company tells you it's about two million
• 31:58
  Speaker 2: to open a store. He's spending. This is just more fraud.
• 32:02
  Speaker 2: Why we had to form a government agency that can
• 32:05
  Speaker 2: just swoop in and stop that for when it happens.
• 32:08
  Speaker 4: Well, shame on you, mouk. Don't you understand the war
• 32:11
  Speaker 4: of socialism, I mean the idea. By the way, they've
• 32:16
  Speaker 4: tried this before, folks. It was in Russia during the
• 32:20
  Speaker 4: Soviet Union, where you know, you could get anything you
• 32:22
  Speaker 4: wanted for a low price at at the grocery store.
• 32:24
  Speaker 4: But of course you had to wait for an hour
• 32:26
  Speaker 4: and a half to get into the store. And then
• 32:27
  Speaker 4: when you got in the store there was nothing on
• 32:29
  Speaker 4: the shelves. But it was all really cheap.
• 32:30
  Speaker 2: Yeah, and I don't know you saw the pictures. This
• 32:33
  Speaker 2: is one dumpy location in the middle of nowhere. Thirty
• 32:37
  Speaker 2: million to build this whole food spends two million when
• 32:39
  Speaker 2: they build a new store.
• 32:41

  Speaker 2: know they tried to steal all of our top golfers.
• 34:07
  Speaker 2: They offered them a fortune. I mean, you could make

  Speaker 2: ten million as a top golfer in America, but they
• 34:13
  Speaker 2: offered me as one hundred million come play in the
• 34:16
  Speaker 2: l IV Saudi Arabia Golf League. Well, they got a
• 34:20
  Speaker 2: lot of big players. We've got a lot of big names.
• 34:23
  Speaker 2: And I wouldn't say it was flourishing, but it was.
