0:00
Speaker 1: Now the Mark Simone Show on seven ten woor filling
0:05
Speaker 1: in for Mark, here's Ken Rosatto.
0:08
Speaker 2: It's so nice to be with you on a beautiful Friday.
0:11
Speaker 2: My goodness. I heard Mark talking about it yesterday, saying,
0:14
Speaker 2: if you like summer weekends. I can't even attempt the
0:17
Speaker 2: great Mark Simone's voice, but he was saying, if you
0:19
Speaker 2: like summer weekends, this is the perfect summer. And I'm
0:21
Speaker 2: thinking hyperbole. I love my Mark Simone, but he's got
0:24
Speaker 2: to be exaggerating that. I talked to a couple of
0:27
Speaker 2: my meteorologists friends and said, no, no, no, Mark's got
0:29
Speaker 2: his finger on the pulse. He's right if you're going
0:31
Speaker 2: to pick at a few days of the entire summer,
0:34
Speaker 2: you know, not that we could forecast six weeks from now,
0:38
Speaker 2: but it looks like this. Is it Friday, Saturday, Sunday sunshine,
0:42
Speaker 2: not that humid low eighties. It's one of those days
0:45
Speaker 2: you just love to walk around. I mean, if you're
0:47
Speaker 2: in Manhattan, you walk around, fresh air, sunshine. If you're
0:50
Speaker 2: in suburbia, forget it. I am in the middle of
0:53
Speaker 2: moving from northern New Jersey to central New Jersey, and
0:57
Speaker 2: I woke up in central New Jersey today in a
1:00
Speaker 2: valley area, and it was fifty seven degrees there, and
1:04
Speaker 2: I think it only got down to the sixties in Manhattan,
1:06
Speaker 2: but it was fifty seven. I walked outside, got a
1:09
Speaker 2: little scared of that because I kind of like the
1:11
Speaker 2: warm weather, but it was just so beautiful and fresh.
1:14
Speaker 2: So I hope you enjoy this beautiful weekend. For those saying,
1:17
Speaker 2: who the heck is this prattling on on the Mark
1:19
Speaker 2: Simone Show, this is Ken Rozotto. I was the morning
1:22
Speaker 2: anchor and for a while, noon anchor two at Channel
1:26
Speaker 2: seven in New York. He remembered me there. I was
1:28
Speaker 2: there for decades and decades. I was also a morning
1:32
Speaker 2: anchor at Good Day in New York on Channel five.
1:34
Speaker 2: I was on Channel fifty five, which is now owned
1:37
Speaker 2: by CBS. It wasn't when I was there, but it's
1:40
Speaker 2: now owned by CBS. So there's a lot of New
1:43
Speaker 2: York history with me with television, but a lot of
1:45
Speaker 2: people don't realize I did radio for a lot of
1:47
Speaker 2: years before that too, in and around the New York
1:49
Speaker 2: City area. So it's nice to be back behind the
1:52
Speaker 2: microphone filling in for probably and arguably one of the
1:56
Speaker 2: greatest talk radio people of any time, Simone, and I'm
2:01
Speaker 2: honored and humbled to be sitting here these days. What
2:04
Speaker 2: I do for a living, I host a daily show
2:06
Speaker 2: on a New Jersey based TV news channel. It's a
2:09
Speaker 2: streaming channel, which is where it seems TV is going today.
2:13
Speaker 2: It's called on New jerseynj dot com. Is how you
2:17
Speaker 2: could get it anywhere in the country, but if you're
2:19
Speaker 2: in New Jersey you could see it easily. It's on
2:22
Speaker 2: New jerseynj dot com. We had a lot of talk
2:26
Speaker 2: about today. Our phone lines are wide open. Give us
2:28
Speaker 2: a call. We could take part together in the conversation.
2:32
Speaker 2: Eight hundred three two one zero seven ten. Eight hundred
2:36
Speaker 2: three two one zero seven ten. Well, let's start talking
2:40
Speaker 2: about Iran. Last night was the thirteenth night where the
2:44
Speaker 2: US has literally pounded Iran. And I know, with the
2:48
Speaker 2: the last month or two, the President has made a
2:50
Speaker 2: lot of threats and we don't see really what has
2:53
Speaker 2: happened over there. But now we're getting video trickling in
2:57
Speaker 2: and it looks like it's no longer just threats. They
3:00
Speaker 2: are pounding they the US military is pounding Iran mercilessly now,
3:06
Speaker 2: going after targets that normally would be avoided because I know,
3:10
Speaker 2: you know, to President Trump doesn't like to impact the
3:13
Speaker 2: regular citizenry of a country. In this case, he doesn't
3:17
Speaker 2: want to, and I don't want to put words in
3:19
Speaker 2: his mouth. I'm just speaking on what he said. He
3:21
Speaker 2: doesn't like impacting the everyday people. The people of Iran
3:25
Speaker 2: are fantastic people. If you know any Iranian Americans, you know,
3:29
Speaker 2: I know six people who, in fact they call themselves
3:32
Speaker 2: Persian because well, Persian is a subset within Iran anyway,
3:36
Speaker 2: not everybody in Iran is Persian, but the ones that
3:40
Speaker 2: I know are all Persian, and they don't even want
3:42
Speaker 2: to call themselves Iranian Americans for one hundred reasons, but
3:45
Speaker 2: they are. They will tell you if you talk to
3:48
Speaker 2: them that the current people running Iran are insane and
3:53
Speaker 2: they don't care about their own people. They don't care
3:56
Speaker 2: if their own people get killed because they are theocrats.
3:58
Speaker 2: They are believed in an administration run entirely for the
4:04
Speaker 2: glory of their God, and it doesn't matter if people
4:07
Speaker 2: get killed because this is part of the process for them.
4:10
Speaker 2: We believe that America's founded under God, whether you realize
4:14
Speaker 2: it or not. We say one nation under God for
4:17
Speaker 2: a reason, because in our founding, the founding fathers say
4:20
Speaker 2: that God led them to this and helping and help
4:23
Speaker 2: them to create the system that we have in the
4:26
Speaker 2: United States today. And if you look at the checks
4:28
Speaker 2: and balances, the way things are set up, it makes
4:31
Speaker 2: a lot of sense. If you don't believe in a God,
4:33
Speaker 2: then we have a whole lot of luck that has
4:36
Speaker 2: brought us to two hundred and fifty years of a
4:39
Speaker 2: wonderful country. If not, I say, the greatest country on
4:41
Speaker 2: the planet. You could try to differ with me. We
4:43
Speaker 2: could have a debate on that, but I don't think
4:45
Speaker 2: you'll win. This is the greatest country ever on the
4:49
Speaker 2: face of the earth for a thousand reasons. It is
4:51
Speaker 2: not a perfect country, but nobody was perfect except for
4:54
Speaker 2: one person, I believe, and they nailed them to a cross.
4:57
Speaker 2: But that's another day, another story. Outside of that, I
5:00
Speaker 2: would say that the United States, whenever it has had warts,
5:03
Speaker 2: it has exposed those warts and tried to do whatever
5:06
Speaker 2: possible to change the warts and fix them. So that's
5:11
Speaker 2: the difference between the US and other countries. But we'd
5:13
Speaker 2: like to hear what you have to say about it.
5:15
Speaker 2: Eight hundred and three to two one zero seven ten.
5:17
Speaker 2: So again with Iran, what has happened is now we
5:20
Speaker 2: are escalating. It seems to going after bridges and power plants,
5:24
Speaker 2: things that sadly will impact the rank and file people
5:27
Speaker 2: of the country. But it seems that unless there's pressure
5:30
Speaker 2: from the people internally on the government the things, they
5:33
Speaker 2: are just going to continue. As is. The negotiators I
5:37
Speaker 2: put in the air quotes lie to us during the
5:39
Speaker 2: negotiation process. They smile and say one thing and then
5:43
Speaker 2: go back and do something entirely differently. In fact, as
5:46
Speaker 2: President Trump has pointed out many times, they will talk
5:49
Speaker 2: to us in a negotiation setting, and the second they're done,
5:52
Speaker 2: they go outside and talk to the lemmings in left
5:55
Speaker 2: wing media in America and tell them just the opposite.
5:57
Speaker 2: And then the left wing media takes their word and
6:00
Speaker 2: doesn't take our word for it, which is crazy, the
6:02
Speaker 2: fact that they look at the enemy foreign government and
6:06
Speaker 2: believe them and take their word as more credible than
6:09
Speaker 2: the United States because they hate Trump so much. And
6:12
Speaker 2: that's what has happened with much of our quote unquote
6:15
Speaker 2: mainstream media shifting gears now seven to ten wo R
6:19
Speaker 2: the Voice of New York Ken Rozanno win from Mark
6:21
Speaker 2: on Friday and Mayor Mom Donnie, he is, you know, urging.
6:25
Speaker 2: He has urged New Yorkers to do all sorts of things.
6:28
Speaker 2: He's sold New Yorker's a bag of goods in terms
6:31
Speaker 2: of promising free buses didn't happen, free grocery stores didn't happen.
6:37
Speaker 2: All sorts of freebies not going to happen. Rent freezing, Okay,
6:41
Speaker 2: So he appoints people to the Rent Control Board and
6:44
Speaker 2: they say that we will freeze the rents. And now
6:46
Speaker 2: you have landlords who will likely win in court, who
6:49
Speaker 2: are suing the Rent Control Board because you cannot impose
6:53
Speaker 2: on the one side, massive fees and regulations and then
6:58
Speaker 2: on the other side not allow those landlords to increase
7:02
Speaker 2: the rent because they got to get the money from somewhere.
7:04
Speaker 2: They're not in business renting property for charity sake. That's
7:09
Speaker 2: not why they bought property, nor should they be expected
7:12
Speaker 2: to be there for charity's sake, even if they just
7:15
Speaker 2: are allowed to break even. But the idea that you
7:17
Speaker 2: should impose rules on landlords. And by the way, the
7:21
Speaker 2: biggest landlord in the city is the city. And guess
7:24
Speaker 2: who usually breaks all the rules in terms of maintaining
7:27
Speaker 2: their buildings. Yeah, you got it. The city Mamdani. Do
7:31
Speaker 2: you get arrested for having buildings not kept up to speed? No,
7:35
Speaker 2: you don't, but you'll go after the landlord who maybe
7:38
Speaker 2: was left the building by a father or grandfather whatever,
7:43
Speaker 2: left the building after the passing of that relative and
7:46
Speaker 2: could barely afford to pay the inheritance taxes, etc. And
7:49
Speaker 2: now you come after them and say, okay, now you
7:51
Speaker 2: have to produce all of this for the individuals who
7:54
Speaker 2: live in that building, and you're not allowed to collect
7:56
Speaker 2: enough rent to run it. But you have to follow
7:57
Speaker 2: all these rules because if you don't, the city he'll
7:59
Speaker 2: come in to take over your building. That's the way
8:03
Speaker 2: that the liberal mindset works, because the liberal mindset, the
8:07
Speaker 2: super liberal, the socialist mindset is that everything belongs to
8:10
Speaker 2: the collective, to the people, and you're lucky if you
8:14
Speaker 2: are allowed to kind of hang on to it for
8:16
Speaker 2: a little bit and make a few dollars on it.
8:18
Speaker 2: But don't forget the city or the people own everything.
8:22
Speaker 2: And that's the sickness that is socialism. It has never worked,
8:25
Speaker 2: it never will work because it takes away incentive if
8:29
Speaker 2: you're going to wake up tired one day, you feel achy,
8:33
Speaker 2: Why would you get out of bed and go to
8:34
Speaker 2: work if you're going to get exactly the same pay
8:37
Speaker 2: at the end of the day as the guy who's
8:39
Speaker 2: been up working twenty hours, sweating, breaking his bones. Why
8:43
Speaker 2: why would you bother getting out of bed. There's got
8:46
Speaker 2: to be a reward system, all right. When you negotiate,
8:51
Speaker 2: I put in air quotes with your child. You say, hey,
8:53
Speaker 2: if you do X, Y and Z, mommy'll give you
8:55
Speaker 2: a treat. Daddy will take you such and such, We'll
8:57
Speaker 2: take you to the park. That's the way we work.
9:00
Speaker 2: We work with incentive. Okay, we know that there's something
9:03
Speaker 2: good that comes of what we do. As adults. We
9:06
Speaker 2: eat vegetables in many cases, not because we think they're
9:09
Speaker 2: all yummy, but because we know we need them. Now
9:11
Speaker 2: I've learned to think they're yummy. But it took me
9:13
Speaker 2: a while when I was again A gouldn't stand my vegetables.
9:16
Speaker 2: But you know that, hey, it's going to be good
9:17
Speaker 2: for us, So you do that for the reward, all right.
9:20
Speaker 2: That's what we do. And that's why socialism does not
9:23
Speaker 2: and never will work, because the reward system is gone
9:28
Speaker 2: eight hundred three to two one zero seven ten, eight
9:30
Speaker 2: hundred three to two one zero seven ten. It's Ken
9:33
Speaker 2: rosottowin for Mark on your Friday. So mam DONI going
9:38
Speaker 2: back to him and talking about, of course Benjamin Thatt
9:41
Speaker 2: and Yahoo, the Prime Minister of Israel coming here in September,
9:44
Speaker 2: as he always does to speak to the UN General
9:47
Speaker 2: Assembly or to be part of it. He usually does speak.
9:51
Speaker 2: Now you have Mamdani. First, he was saying that he
9:53
Speaker 2: was threatening to arrest the Prime Minister. Of course, he
9:57
Speaker 2: has no authority to arrest anyway. He has to have
9:59
Speaker 2: the ny PD do it. But he is the boss
10:02
Speaker 2: of the NYPD. And you can imagine the conversation see
10:05
Speaker 2: and Commissioner Tish may have had behind closed doors, and
10:07
Speaker 2: Commissioner Tish being the only adult of the two of them,
10:10
Speaker 2: Commissioner Tish would have said, I'm not gonna do it.
10:13
Speaker 2: I'm not going to have our men and women put
10:15
Speaker 2: their careers at stake. Can potentially be arrested by the
10:18
Speaker 2: FEDS for breaking the law because you say so. So
10:22
Speaker 2: it ain't gonna happen. So I don't know that that
10:25
Speaker 2: was the conversation. But my guess is it went something
10:28
Speaker 2: like that, and Mom Donnie then comes out after years,
10:32
Speaker 2: Remember he has threatened to have Netanyahu arrested from when
10:35
Speaker 2: he was an assemblyman. When when Mom Donnie was an assemblyman,
10:40
Speaker 2: he was talking about this and urging it, and as
10:43
Speaker 2: he was running for mayor he was urging it. And
10:45
Speaker 2: now that he is mayor, you know, he came out
10:47
Speaker 2: and said that he will do whatever he can possibly
10:50
Speaker 2: do to arrest I keep mixing them up. I don't
10:53
Speaker 2: know why, but to arrest yeah, well, I guess somebody
10:57
Speaker 2: got to him and said, you can't do that, and
10:59
Speaker 2: if you do that, you could be arrested by the Feds.
11:01
Speaker 2: So now he makes his proclamation that we've tried everything
11:04
Speaker 2: and exhausted everything and we can't arrest net Yahoo. However,
11:09
Speaker 2: the good Mayor has come out and urged New Yorkers
11:12
Speaker 2: to take to the streets in protests when Netting Yahoo
11:15
Speaker 2: is here. Now, freedom of speech, right, You're allowed to assemble,
11:20
Speaker 2: You're allowed to protest, you can do that. But the
11:23
Speaker 2: people whom he is speaking to are not the good kind,
11:27
Speaker 2: you know, stand there and be quiet and hold a
11:29
Speaker 2: sign up protesters. These are the agitators. These are the professionals.
11:34
Speaker 2: These are the people who get paid by the Sorrows
11:37
Speaker 2: backed groups and get busted in from all over the country.
11:40
Speaker 2: These are the people who shout in the faces of
11:42
Speaker 2: ordinary New Yorkers trying to get to work. These are
11:45
Speaker 2: the people who glue themselves to buildings and cement themselves
11:49
Speaker 2: to roadways to prevent your passage, to just be pains
11:52
Speaker 2: in the ass to anybody just trying to do their
11:55
Speaker 2: job and live as ordinary New Yorkers, to try to
11:58
Speaker 2: make a point, and they're in a minuscule minority, but
12:02
Speaker 2: that doesn't matter. They make their presence known in such
12:06
Speaker 2: a way that it is frustrating and annoying to everyday people.
12:10
Speaker 2: And this is what Mamdani is urging now. He's urging
12:13
Speaker 2: that the everyday New Yorkers take to the streets and
12:15
Speaker 2: protest against the presence of Netanyahu in the fall. And
12:19
Speaker 2: now the head of the New York at Police Benevolent
12:21
Speaker 2: Association is saying, you're now going to put the NYPD
12:26
Speaker 2: in danger because they're the ones who are going to
12:28
Speaker 2: have to deal with these lunatics. Okay, look, if you
12:31
Speaker 2: don't like this, let's just have the un no longer
12:34
Speaker 2: be here. It probably would make sense anyway. You know,
12:37
Speaker 2: Mamdani loves the Hague so much. Why did you put
12:41
Speaker 2: the UN right next to the Hague? Go over somewhere
12:43
Speaker 2: in the middle of Europe, where nobody wants to be,
12:45
Speaker 2: in the middle of the fall, and that's where you
12:48
Speaker 2: could have your protests. New York is too densely populated
12:52
Speaker 2: a city to have it here anyway. It's ridiculous, But
12:55
Speaker 2: that's what this mayor is calling for, as if we
12:57
Speaker 2: don't have enough issues, and as if it's not crazy enough.
13:00
Speaker 2: In September when the UN is in session. Now, Mom
13:03
Speaker 2: Donnie is urging New Yorkers to come out in protest.
13:06
Speaker 2: What do you think about it? Eight hundred three to
13:08
Speaker 2: two to one zero seven ten. Eight hundred three to
13:11
Speaker 2: two one zero seven ten. So you hear about the
13:13
Speaker 2: lunatict went on the stabbing spree on the Upper West
13:16
Speaker 2: Side yesterday. Curtis and Larry talked about this this morning.
13:19
Speaker 2: It happened just about a mile or so up the
13:21
Speaker 2: street from where I worked for twenty years at Channel seven.
13:25
Speaker 2: Channel seven used to be at sixty seventh in Columbus,
13:27
Speaker 2: right by Central Park West to block Over and this
13:31
Speaker 2: happened in the eighties, I think about eighty seventh Street.
13:34
Speaker 2: So apparently a man, the man who police identified his
13:38
Speaker 2: fifty one year old security guard named Raoul Morales, who
13:42
Speaker 2: himself lives on the Upper West Side. Police say he
13:46
Speaker 2: stabbed two men randomly unprovoked, first a fifty seven year
13:50
Speaker 2: old Asian man, then a fifty year old Jewish man
13:53
Speaker 2: in separate unprovoked attacks, and witnesses say the man shouted
13:57
Speaker 2: a La hu ak bar during both incidents and then
14:00
Speaker 2: allegedly barricaded himself in his own apartment. The NYPD arrested
14:05
Speaker 2: him and maybe charging him with hate crimes. Now the
14:08
Speaker 2: good news is both victims are expected to survive, and
14:11
Speaker 2: investigators say they're looking into Morales's mental state. You think,
14:15
Speaker 2: I mean, who just goes out and stabs people randomly unprovoked?
14:19
Speaker 2: You got to wonder, And while I don't know, and
14:23
Speaker 2: what I'm about to saying go off on this tangent.
14:25
Speaker 2: I don't know whether Morales smoked marijuana or not. I
14:29
Speaker 2: don't know, but I will say this, in New York,
14:33
Speaker 2: where you probably have two to three times the per
14:36
Speaker 2: capital rate of people who are mentally unstable versus other
14:39
Speaker 2: cities and other places in America. I've read those statistics.
14:42
Speaker 2: I can't cite them right now, but I will find
14:45
Speaker 2: them for anyone who wants to challenge me on that.
14:48
Speaker 2: You have to wonder why it's happening and where marijuana
14:52
Speaker 2: use has been tolerated for decades, including public marijuana use
14:56
Speaker 2: for the most part, you could say can can My
14:58
Speaker 2: kid got arrested in thatineteen ninety two for having a
15:02
Speaker 2: tenth of announced. Yes, that did happen too. I'm not
15:04
Speaker 2: saying that everybody was able to smoke marijuana anywhere, but
15:08
Speaker 2: marijuana sales today are not what they were fifty years ago,
15:12
Speaker 2: and it's not the same marijuana, and the THHC levels
15:15
Speaker 2: are so much higher. So now the little dirty issue
15:18
Speaker 2: nobody wants to talk about is that now that marijuana
15:22
Speaker 2: is legalized, we have a lot of effects happening. You
15:25
Speaker 2: know that today's strong marijuana can lead to psychosis, can
15:29
Speaker 2: lead to schizophrenia, can trigger psychotic episodes. Not my opinion,
15:34
Speaker 2: You can google it. Go to the Google and check
15:36
Speaker 2: it out. It increases anxiety and panic, exactly the opposite
15:40
Speaker 2: of what you think marijuana does. Regular use can cause
15:43
Speaker 2: high rates of depression, mood instability, thoughts of suicide. It
15:47
Speaker 2: can cause cognitive, cognitive and memory impairment. And unlike everything
15:52
Speaker 2: we were told that it is not addicting, well just
15:55
Speaker 2: the opposite. In fact, we're told now that cannabis use
15:59
Speaker 2: disorder can lead to dependence, addiction, and withdrawal symptoms, and
16:04
Speaker 2: this can even lead to insomnia, severe mood swings. And
16:08
Speaker 2: these are all the same people who were vilifying cigarette
16:11
Speaker 2: smoking all these years, saying it causes lung cancer. Those
16:14
Speaker 2: people stay amazingly quiet when you ask them if the
16:17
Speaker 2: disgusting smell of marijuana use impacts our lungs like cigarette
16:20
Speaker 2: smoke did. Right, Well, let me ask you something. If
16:23
Speaker 2: smoking a filtered cigarette can lead to lung cancer, and
16:27
Speaker 2: you don't really necessarily take a deep drag of a
16:29
Speaker 2: cigarette like you would marijuana, then why do you think
16:33
Speaker 2: taking a deep drag of an unfiltered marijuana cigarette and
16:37
Speaker 2: holding that thick smoke in your lungs in order to
16:41
Speaker 2: get the effect, and doing that over and over again,
16:43
Speaker 2: why do you think that's not going to impact your
16:45
Speaker 2: lungs and cause lung cancer. And every time I've had
16:48
Speaker 2: a doctor on the show that I do in New
16:50
Speaker 2: Jersey and the topic of lung cancer came up. They've
16:54
Speaker 2: alway said, well, there's really no nexus between marijuana use
16:57
Speaker 2: and lung cancer. Well, actually that is now not true.
17:00
Speaker 2: There's actually a publication called lung Cancer. Yes, you could
17:04
Speaker 2: use the Google to look that up too, and it
17:07
Speaker 2: shows that people with cannabis use disorder. That means if
17:09
Speaker 2: you smoke on a fairly regular basis, you have at
17:12
Speaker 2: least four times the risk of developing lung cancer smoking
17:16
Speaker 2: marijuana compared to non users. So enough of the myth
17:20
Speaker 2: that pot is somehow good for you. And in states
17:23
Speaker 2: where it was thought that licensed dispensaries would bring a
17:26
Speaker 2: fortunate tax revenues hasn't happened. As California, the dispensaries are
17:29
Speaker 2: actually suing the state because they're allowed to uh to
17:33
Speaker 2: stay open, but illegal dispensaries right next door are allowed
17:38
Speaker 2: to sell pot and they're not being taxed. So now
17:42
Speaker 2: the legal dispensaries who have to follow the regulations and
17:44
Speaker 2: get tax are suing the state. It's a mess. And
17:47
Speaker 2: yet Governor Gavenussom out there says nothing, why am I
17:50
Speaker 2: bringing this up? Because it comes down to the mental
17:54
Speaker 2: health situation and no one's going to tell me that
17:57
Speaker 2: the increased use of marijuana does not impact people's mental
18:00
Speaker 2: health in the city of New York. All right, we
18:02
Speaker 2: want to hear what you have to say right now.
18:04
Speaker 2: The numbers eight hundred three to two, one zero seven ten.
18:07
Speaker 2: We will take your calls beautiful sunshine today through Sunday
18:09
Speaker 2: temps low eighties and zoron mom Donnie's threats to arrest
18:13
Speaker 2: Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Ettia, who we will continue talking
18:16
Speaker 2: to that about that with Fox News legal analyst Greg Jarrett.
18:20
Speaker 2: Just a little bit calls next though, eight hundred three
18:22
Speaker 2: to two, one zero seven ten.
18:24
Speaker 1: This is the Mark Simone Show on seven ten. Wr
18:28
Speaker 1: Ken from Mark Today, Here's Ken Rosatto and.
18:32
Speaker 2: Very good to be with you on a beautiful Friday.
18:35
Speaker 2: Straight to our busy phones. Let's go to Bill in
18:37
Speaker 2: New Jersey.
18:37
Speaker 3: Good morning, Bill, Hey, Ken, how are you truly good
18:41
Speaker 3: to hear you again? Thank you for being on the show.
18:45
Speaker 3: And two quick points. The knucklehead and mayor of New
18:49
Speaker 3: York City. The average American would realize, and you don't
18:54
Speaker 3: have to be a lawyer to realize this, that you
18:56
Speaker 3: cannot file a suit against a man and another against another
19:00
Speaker 3: country and bring him to justice in your country. The
19:03
Speaker 3: venue is all out of wack. He doesn't know what
19:05
Speaker 3: he's doing. He's an educated idiot, and unfortunately you have
19:10
Speaker 3: many educated idiots in Manhattan that voted for this embecile.
19:15
Speaker 3: So the whole place is going to hell.
19:17
Speaker 2: Well, you know, think about this, if I could just
19:20
Speaker 2: jump in build that in Manhattan. You know that in
19:22
Speaker 2: New York, not just Manhattan, but in New York. Do
19:24
Speaker 2: you know that fifty percent of the people here and
19:26
Speaker 2: I chuckle because it's just an I'm incredulous to it,
19:29
Speaker 2: fifty percent are not born here. Now take that as
19:34
Speaker 2: you will. But the reason why that matters if fifty
19:37
Speaker 2: percent of the people come from a place where things
19:40
Speaker 2: are done differently and we don't have the same rules
19:43
Speaker 2: as them, et cetera, in the same traditions, is it
19:46
Speaker 2: shocking that fifty percent of the people might say, go ahead,
19:49
Speaker 2: arrest them. Who cares because they don't understand that that's
19:52
Speaker 2: not what we do here.
19:55
Speaker 3: I think I think that what you just said, Well,
19:58
Speaker 3: I hope I'm wrong. We will eventually change the culture
20:02
Speaker 3: and take away America for what it really truly stands for,
20:07
Speaker 3: because we will they will vote for people like this
20:10
Speaker 3: who want to change everything and everything that America stands for.
20:14
Speaker 3: And it's damn scary.
20:16
Speaker 2: These real people who hate America. Bill, that's the key.
20:19
Speaker 2: They don't like America as it is. They want to
20:21
Speaker 2: change it. And remember that communism only works for the communists.
20:24
Speaker 2: That's the problem, Patton Scars. They always say good morning
20:27
Speaker 2: to you.
20:28
Speaker 4: Hey, hey, Ken, how are you doing good? Thank you good.
20:32
Speaker 4: I called Mark last week and I said, you know,
20:34
Speaker 4: usually when the host is on vacation, they have the
20:37
Speaker 4: B team, but you are not only the eight, You're
20:40
Speaker 4: the A team. You're the A plus team.
20:41
Speaker 2: Oh man, thank you so much, and listen and I
20:43
Speaker 2: say it all the time, and I mean it. Mark
20:45
Speaker 2: knows it because I've already kissed his ring a few times.
20:48
Speaker 2: I am the biggest Marximone fan. I don't think there's
20:50
Speaker 2: a listener right now who's a bigger Marx Simone fan
20:53
Speaker 2: than me. I think that's why it works, because I
20:55
Speaker 2: love the men so much that I'm just humbled to
20:57
Speaker 2: be sitting in the seat. But I appreciate your kind work.
21:00
Speaker 5: I just have one other quick question for you, if
21:01
Speaker 5: I may, Yeah, go right ahead, Oh yeah, when there's
21:07
Speaker 5: regular contributors that appear on the radio weekly. I know
21:11
Speaker 5: Warner Wolf comes on a thing. Are they compensated?
21:15
Speaker 6: I don't know.
21:16
Speaker 2: That's a very good question. Yeah, do you know this
21:19
Speaker 2: is I don't know. I'm just looking at our engineer.
21:22
Speaker 2: I really don't know. I'm only I'm only a freelancer.
21:24
Speaker 2: I come in, and I mean when we when you
21:26
Speaker 2: are a fill in host, you do get compensation. Sometimes
21:29
Speaker 2: sometimes they don't. I mean it's you could be a
21:31
Speaker 2: guest or a freelancer whatever, but you know it's it's
21:35
Speaker 2: we do it. I think for the most part, we
21:37
Speaker 2: do because we love it. You know, I come in.
21:39
Speaker 2: I wouldn't care. We don't let the boss hear this.
21:41
Speaker 2: I wouldn't care if the boss didn't give me a penny.
21:43
Speaker 2: You know, I'm thrilled to come in and feeling. But yeah, honestly,
21:48
Speaker 2: with Wonder and all, I don't know not something. But
21:50
Speaker 2: some of them, if you ask the bosses, get write
21:52
Speaker 2: a little note, they'll probably talk to you about it.
21:54
Speaker 4: Yeah, Okay, I'm just curious because some of them are
21:57
Speaker 4: are just ordinary, but some of them are really like superstars,
21:59
Speaker 4: and they really it's just a joy listening to them.
22:02
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean like I mean, we have two guests
22:05
Speaker 2: on during this show in the next two hours. They
22:08
Speaker 2: don't get compensated. These are their Newsmaker types. They don't
22:11
Speaker 2: get compensated. But I don't know. I can't. It's not
22:14
Speaker 2: that I'm trying to hide the answer. I just don't
22:15
Speaker 2: know the answer. But that's a good question.
22:17
Speaker 4: Okay, all right, Well, keep up the good work.
22:19
Speaker 6: Ken.
22:19
Speaker 5: We love you.
22:20
Speaker 2: Thank you, Pat. That's very very kind. You made my
22:22
Speaker 2: day and you made my mother smile. I appreciate it.
22:25
Speaker 2: Thank you, my friend. Have a good day.
22:27
Speaker 4: Okay, you too, fine.
22:28
Speaker 2: Now all right, we go to Joe Elmwood Park. Good
22:30
Speaker 2: morning to you.
22:32
Speaker 7: Good morning, Ken. We have a quick history lesson. There
22:35
Speaker 7: was a man in the eighteen nineties who wanted to
22:37
Speaker 7: build a amusement park and he fixed an election, and
22:41
Speaker 7: he wound up and sings saying hard labor for six years.
22:45
Speaker 7: So that's to Phil Murphy and our dear sweet helicopter
22:50
Speaker 7: governor bird brain Shirley.
22:53
Speaker 2: And that's what the kindest part of your heart I'd
22:55
Speaker 2: like to hear what the bad part of your heart
22:57
Speaker 2: has to say about her. There you go. Well, we're
22:59
Speaker 2: gonna be talking about her later in the next hour.
23:02
Speaker 2: I got somebody from Njadvance Media, that's the folks at
23:06
Speaker 2: NJ dot com and whatnot. We're going to be talking
23:07
Speaker 2: about the good governor of New Jersey, Joe. Thank you
23:10
Speaker 2: so much for calling. We appreciate it. And it is
23:13
Speaker 2: now ten thirty five. For those of you listening, this
23:16
Speaker 2: is Ken Rostto in for the great Mark Simone, and
23:19
Speaker 2: coming up we have well you haven't heard the last
23:22
Speaker 2: of Mayor mom Donni's threads to arrest Israeli Prime Minister
23:25
Speaker 2: Benjamin Ya. We're going to talk to Fox News legal
23:28
Speaker 2: analyst Greg Jarrett about it.
23:30
Speaker 1: Now more of the Mark Simone Show on seven ten
23:34
Speaker 1: wor filling in for Mark. Here again is Ken Rosatto a.
23:39
Speaker 2: Witch on a beautiful Friday. Again, if you're just tuning in,
23:42
Speaker 2: you say, wait a minute, we're going to get the
23:44
Speaker 2: rain later, Sanders. No, it's beautiful today, Tomorrow's Sunday sunshine,
23:49
Speaker 2: not too hot, not too humid, heights only in the
23:51
Speaker 2: low eighties. Enjoy what probably is gonna be the best
23:54
Speaker 2: summer of the entire weekend. Ken Rosotto went former New
23:56
Speaker 2: York City news anchor Channel seven for twenty years five
24:00
Speaker 2: anchoring good to New York before that. But it's nice
24:03
Speaker 2: to be with you today. And if you have had
24:06
Speaker 2: your head in the sand and haven't been paying attention.
24:09
Speaker 2: Mayor Zorn Mumdani has been threatening to arrest Israeli Prime
24:13
Speaker 2: Minister Benjamin Ettannyah who for several years now, even from
24:16
Speaker 2: his days as a New York State Assemblyman. He cited
24:19
Speaker 2: the International Criminal Court which issued a twenty twenty four
24:23
Speaker 2: arrest warrant for NETANYAHUO over the war in Gaza. Remember
24:26
Speaker 2: Hamas invaded Israel October seventh of twenty three, slaughtering over
24:30
Speaker 2: twelve hundred innocent people, many in their sleep. So all
24:34
Speaker 2: Prime Minister Netanya who did was respond to that. Now,
24:37
Speaker 2: the US does not and has never submitted to the
24:40
Speaker 2: decisions of the ICC, but without any authority to do so,
24:44
Speaker 2: Mamdani has threatened to arrest Netanyaho when he comes to
24:47
Speaker 2: the US for the UN General Assembly in September. With
24:50
Speaker 2: US right now, Fox News legal analyst Greg Jarrett here
24:53
Speaker 2: to talk about it. Truly, one of my favorite people
24:55
Speaker 2: on Fox News.
24:55
Speaker 3: Greg.
24:56
Speaker 2: I now will bother on and on about how much
24:59
Speaker 2: I love Watch, but it's good to have your answered.
25:02
Speaker 6: Thank you can. I appreciate it.
25:04
Speaker 2: Well, So, you see a guy like this, I call him,
25:06
Speaker 2: I call him the boy mayor. You see a guy
25:09
Speaker 2: like this who stupidly comes out and publicly proclaims that
25:13
Speaker 2: he will have Net and Yahoo arrested, which number one,
25:16
Speaker 2: he as a mayor can't do. It's up to the
25:18
Speaker 2: police commission in the police department, and they're not going
25:21
Speaker 2: to be so stupid, knowing what the law is to
25:23
Speaker 2: do that. Why would he even come forward and say that.
25:27
Speaker 6: Well, as one of the great American philosophers, Forrest Gump said,
25:32
Speaker 6: you know, stupid is as stupid does.
25:34
Speaker 3: And you're right that.
25:37
Speaker 6: This is a boy mayor who never held a real job,
25:42
Speaker 6: never built anything, never accomplished anything. He's he's young and
25:47
Speaker 6: doesn't know much. But you know, I think even a
25:50
Speaker 6: high school civic student, you know, would red flag this
25:55
Speaker 6: idea of arresting that and Yahoo recognizing there's got to
26:00
Speaker 6: be something wrong with it, and there's several things wrong
26:03
Speaker 6: with it. First of all, a municipal mayor does not
26:07
Speaker 6: have the authority to arrest anyone. Second of all, as
26:11
Speaker 6: you point out, the ICC is a joke. America never
26:16
Speaker 6: signed on to it. In fact, we rejected it, and
26:21
Speaker 6: in past a law that you know makes it illegal
26:27
Speaker 6: for anybody to follow its dictates. And the third, if
26:34
Speaker 6: Mondoni were dumb enough, then he might be to try
26:38
Speaker 6: to detain or arrest Yahoo. Mondomi would find himself arrested
26:46
Speaker 6: by the FBI and prosecuted by the EJ for kidnapping,
26:51
Speaker 6: because there's a specific federal law that you know says
26:55
Speaker 6: that internationally protected people who were guessing the UNITEDS dates,
27:02
Speaker 6: he cannot be taken into custody. If they are, it's kidnapping.
27:06
Speaker 6: And if you conspire with others to do so, as
27:10
Speaker 6: it appears Mondoni was trying to do, and you take
27:15
Speaker 6: an avert act, that's conspiracy to commit kidnapping. I am
27:21
Speaker 6: sure that after Mondomi hauled off and issued the threat
27:26
Speaker 6: of arresting net Nyahu, that the lawyers that work for
27:30
Speaker 6: his administration yanked him into a nearby office and said,
27:35
Speaker 6: you can't do this for the reasons I just explained,
27:39
Speaker 6: and then sheepishly Mondane had to back off of his
27:44
Speaker 6: ridiculous idea. And now he's got a new idea. He
27:48
Speaker 6: is encouraging people to take to the streets, which risks
27:54
Speaker 6: the safety of the NYPD to protest Nahou's So you know,
28:01
Speaker 6: this is what you get when you elect a boy
28:04
Speaker 6: mayor andn't known anything.
28:06
Speaker 2: I think I find it ironic that this is the
28:09
Speaker 2: same guy who refuses to enforce federal law when it
28:13
Speaker 2: comes to things like illegal migrants, which is something that
28:16
Speaker 2: we are subordinate to and subjected to in the City
28:20
Speaker 2: of New York. But yet he wants to follow international
28:23
Speaker 2: law which we have never signed on to and enforced that.
28:27
Speaker 2: From New York City's perspective, it just is mind boggling
28:30
Speaker 2: that this is the person in charge of the city.
28:33
Speaker 6: Well, it really is. And of course he loves to
28:37
Speaker 6: confer sanctuary status to people who are here illegally breaking
28:43
Speaker 6: the law. And I argued a long time ago and
28:47
Speaker 6: in several different columns, that it's high time for the
28:50
Speaker 6: federal government to go after sanctuary jurisdictions because it's a
28:57
Speaker 6: crime to harbor people who are here illegally. It's a
29:04
Speaker 6: further crime to interfere obstruct in federal enforcement of immigration laws.
29:12
Speaker 6: But that's what we have seen in places like New
29:16
Speaker 6: York and out in California, where they openly defy federal law.
29:23
Speaker 6: And provide sanctuary. And you know, there are several ways
29:27
Speaker 6: you can go after these people, both civilly but also criminally,
29:31
Speaker 6: and maybe it's time that people be prosecuted.
29:34
Speaker 2: Well, the fact that you have local municipalities all over
29:37
Speaker 2: the country, the sanctuary cities and states saying that we
29:41
Speaker 2: are under no obligation to enforce federal law. That's up
29:45
Speaker 2: to you. Okay, Well, kidnapping is a federal law, yet
29:48
Speaker 2: local police enforce that, and so is harboring a fugitive,
29:53
Speaker 2: kidnapping and taking people across state lines. How about bank robbery?
29:57
Speaker 2: That's a federal offense, right, the FBI gets involved in that,
30:01
Speaker 2: but yet they'll follow the law from a local perspective.
30:04
Speaker 2: And of course I know you're a lawyer, Greg, and
30:06
Speaker 2: lawyers will say yes, but Ken, that's because they are
30:08
Speaker 2: simultaneous local and state laws. Yes, but you involved the
30:12
Speaker 2: FBI for those things. Don't tell me the local police say,
30:16
Speaker 2: oh no, FBI, you can't get involved in this bankrupt er.
30:18
Speaker 2: Of course they do, but when it comes to something
30:21
Speaker 2: they don't like, they then selectively choose not to have any.
30:25
Speaker 6: Part of it. Yeah, I think a lot of it.
30:28
Speaker 6: And look, I speak as a lawyer for forty six years.
30:32
Speaker 6: You know, a lot of it comes down to a
30:34
Speaker 6: lack of knowledge of the law, which is why you
30:39
Speaker 6: know politicians generally have a faylanx of lawyers to advise them.
30:43
Speaker 6: And I'll give you another example. You know, wealth taxes,
30:48
Speaker 6: which you know Rocanna is pushing representative from California a
30:54
Speaker 6: far less liberal, but Mondommie is well, you know in
30:57
Speaker 6: New York at some point in time, you know there
31:03
Speaker 6: will be lawsuits filed to stop it because wealth taxes
31:09
Speaker 6: are a violation of the Constitution, and in particular the
31:13
Speaker 6: sixteenth Amendment, which imposed income tax. But you know, wealth
31:18
Speaker 6: tax is not income. It's assets that go up and down.
31:25
Speaker 6: You're not taxing somebody when they take the income that's
31:32
Speaker 6: part of their wealth invested in tax and bonds and
31:35
Speaker 6: businesses and so forth. And a constitution says direct taxes
31:40
Speaker 6: must be apportioned by state population. Well that's not what
31:45
Speaker 6: this wealth tax is. So you know, this is a
31:51
Speaker 6: violation of Supreme Court rulings. It's a violation of the
31:54
Speaker 6: sixteenth Amendment. I think it's only a matter of time
32:00
Speaker 6: when the you know, wealth tax goes the way of
32:03
Speaker 6: the Dodo bird, because it's blatantly unconstitutional.
32:06
Speaker 2: Now, let's penalize people for their success and working hard
32:09
Speaker 2: to contribute to society. And in this case, as you
32:12
Speaker 2: point out, this is not We're not talking about taxing
32:14
Speaker 2: income from their successes. We're talking about assuming, at this
32:18
Speaker 2: point in time what their total worth is and taxing
32:22
Speaker 2: it based on that, which tomorrow the buildings I own
32:24
Speaker 2: could all burn down and they could be worthless. So
32:27
Speaker 2: you can't tell.
32:28
Speaker 6: It exactly exactly. And you know, what they fail to
32:33
Speaker 6: recognize is that wealthy people invest in businesses that drive
32:40
Speaker 6: jobs and innovation. You take that away and it harms
32:47
Speaker 6: jobs and innovation and businesses, which hurts society as a whole.
32:52
Speaker 2: Oh stop your logic.
32:53
Speaker 6: Nice, yeah, stop it, you know, I mean it really is.
32:58
Speaker 6: It's fundamental economics and it's fundamental law. And these people
33:04
Speaker 6: who push this, like Mantami and you know, the Squad
33:11
Speaker 6: and Rocanna and Gavin Newsom, the governor of California, their
33:16
Speaker 6: bereaft of knowledge of both fundamental economics and the law.
33:20
Speaker 2: Unfortunately, they're like candy to children. They speak to the
33:23
Speaker 2: lowest common denominator and get people agitated and all excited.
33:27
Speaker 6: It holds really well for them, which is why they
33:30
Speaker 6: do it, because they only care about perpetuating their own
33:33
Speaker 6: power and elevating it.
33:35
Speaker 2: All right, Well, we are unfortunately at a time I
33:37
Speaker 2: could talk to you all day, my friend. I appreciate
33:39
Speaker 2: you taking the time today. Fox News Legal analyst Greg Jarrett, Attorney,
