  Speaker 1: More Mark.

  Speaker 2: The Mark Simone Show.
• 0:02
  Speaker 1: On 710WOR. Thank you, Shadow Stevens. Welcome to hour number two.
• 0:09
  Speaker 1: That's right. If you still don't know, the show is
• 0:12
  Speaker 1: now three hours. We start at 9 a.m. It's now
• 0:16
  Speaker 1: nine to nine. Now three hours. It wasn't my idea,
• 0:20
  Speaker 1: but it's worked out very well. Nine to ten hour
• 0:23
  Speaker 1: is way, way up in the ratings, and we are
• 0:26
  Speaker 1: killing everybody between nine and ten. So thanks to you,
• 0:31
  Speaker 1: we got a lot to get to this hour. We'll
• 0:34
  Speaker 1: get to all sorts. We'll get to Bruce Blakeman, Kathy Hochul. Blakeman,
• 0:40
  Speaker 1: I think, is on his way to a big victory.
• 0:41
  Speaker 1: A lot of momentum there. The midterms, Republicans most likely
• 0:48
  Speaker 1: will win the Senate. Looks very good for the Senate. Now,
• 0:52
  Speaker 1: the House, that could go either way. It's just too
• 0:54
  Speaker 1: close to call. And the polls are very, crazy rigged
• 0:59
  Speaker 1: and skewed, so you can't go by them. It's hard
• 1:02
  Speaker 1: to tell. Now, you've got a lot of places like
• 1:05
  Speaker 1: Michigan where you've got this crazy Muhammad Abdul El-Sayed, this communist, crazy,
• 1:11
  Speaker 1: almost a doctor, not quite a doctor, a little bit
• 1:15
  Speaker 1: of a doctor, but he's not really a doctor. And
• 1:17
  Speaker 1: you've got the normal candidate, good, solid guy, Mike Rogers
• 1:21
  Speaker 1: running in Michigan. Forget what the polls show. They're always
• 1:24
  Speaker 1: skewed way to the left. Michigan, I'm from Michigan. Michigan's
• 1:27
  Speaker 1: a good, common-sense kind of place. You've got to figure.
• 1:31
  Speaker 1: There's a couple of pockets of crazy, radical voters, but
• 1:35
  Speaker 1: most of Michigan will go with Rogers. And Rogers still
• 1:38
  Speaker 1: battling El-Sayed. He can't even get along with his other senators.
• 1:41
  Speaker 1: He's already threatened one of his Democrat senators, put his
• 1:44
  Speaker 1: head on a pike. I mean, this guy's angry and divisive.
• 1:48
  Speaker 1: And when he does that kind of thing, you're never
• 1:50
  Speaker 1: going to get a problem fixed. Yeah, well, that's him
• 1:52
  Speaker 1: on El-Sayed. El-Sayed... in the Senate. The Democrats in the Senate,
• 1:57
  Speaker 1: they don't want Al-Sayed. They do not want to work
• 1:59
  Speaker 1: with this guy. Here's Al-Sayed yelling and screaming about something.
• 2:04
  Speaker 1: Why do you think that Republicans are really using you
• 2:09
  Speaker 1: to attack the whole Democratic Party? I think we all
• 2:14
  Speaker 1: well know why they're doing it. My name's Abdul. I'm Muslim.
• 2:18
  Speaker 1: It's not the communist stuff. It's not the crazy positions
• 2:21
  Speaker 1: you've taken. It's your first name. That's what Most voters,
• 2:24
  Speaker 1: that's what they go by. They vote based on the
• 2:26
  Speaker 1: first name. You're always going to get this kind of stuff.
• 2:29
  Speaker 1: Even crazy Kathy Hochul, Blakeman was just mopping the floor
• 2:34
  Speaker 1: with her in the debate, and she panicked, and she
• 2:36
  Speaker 1: went total panic. Remember, she started yelling, Blakeman is a QAnon.
• 2:41
  Speaker 1: He's hanging around with white supremacists. Now, of course, it's
• 2:46
  Speaker 1: preposterous when you look at Bruce Blakeman, but that's what
• 2:49
  Speaker 1: you do. When you're Kathy Hochul and you're in desperate
• 2:53
  Speaker 1: trouble in a debate, you pull out that crazy low-life
• 2:57
  Speaker 1: Joe Biden kind of crap. That's what Biden used to
• 2:59
  Speaker 1: do in a debate. He'd yell and scream, you're a
• 3:00
  Speaker 1: white supremacist, you're a QAnon, you're an alt-right. Nobody knows
• 3:04
  Speaker 1: what the hell QAnon is or what alt-right is. It's
• 3:07
  Speaker 1: some chat room on the internet that nobody's been in,
• 3:09
  Speaker 1: nobody knows about. I mean, he said he's hanging around
• 3:12
  Speaker 1: with QAnon. He couldn't hang around with QAnon if he
• 3:15
  Speaker 1: wanted to. Nobody knows who the hell it is or
• 3:17
  Speaker 1: where it is. If I said right now, let me
• 3:20
  Speaker 1: go hang out with QAnon, where's that? So it was
• 3:25
  Speaker 1: real low-level Joe Biden crap. The fact that Hochul resorted
• 3:28
  Speaker 1: to that was, it was an amazing moment. And it
• 3:31
  Speaker 1: just shows how empty her argument was that she tried
• 3:35
  Speaker 1: that kind of crap. So here's the problem. If, let's
• 3:40
  Speaker 1: say Democrats were to win the whole thing, Senate, House,
• 3:44
  Speaker 1: they're not, but let's say they were. They would then
• 3:48
  Speaker 1: go full crazy. They would be able to pass anything
• 3:51
  Speaker 1: and everything. They would pass the most radical, crazy nonsense.
• 3:55
  Speaker 1: They'd impeach Trump. They would just go berserk. This would
• 3:59
  Speaker 1: cost them the 2028 election. So you've got to remember,
• 4:02
  Speaker 1: if they win big, they're going to lose in 2028
• 4:04
  Speaker 1: because the public won't like all this crap they're going
• 4:08
  Speaker 1: to do. So they would lose in 2028. Also remember,
• 4:12
  Speaker 1: even if they just win the House, that will give
• 4:14
  Speaker 1: them a lot of power in Congress. they will come
• 4:18
  Speaker 1: for Chuck Schumer. They will take him out. Chuck Schumer
• 4:22
  Speaker 1: is the worst politician, the most awful thing that ever
• 4:26
  Speaker 1: happened in New York. He may have been good in
• 4:28
  Speaker 1: the beginning, but he just became a low-life, cheap politician,
• 4:32
  Speaker 1: just doing favors for donors, collecting money. He's always there
• 4:37
  Speaker 1: when you don't need him. He's never there when you
• 4:39
  Speaker 1: need him. When the crazy anti-Semitism was putting kids in
• 4:45
  Speaker 1: Columbia University and other places in great physical danger. Where
• 4:49
  Speaker 1: was Schumer? Left town. Remember during the pandemic? Left town.
• 4:53
  Speaker 1: Remember during the riots? Left town. He's always hiding. He's
• 4:56
  Speaker 1: never there when you need him. Only there when you
• 4:58
  Speaker 1: don't need him. When the anti-Semitism spread like wildfire, he
• 5:04
  Speaker 1: ran the other way. In fact, he even went along
• 5:07
  Speaker 1: with all the crazy democratic socialists and anti-Israel and anti-Semites.
• 5:12
  Speaker 1: You know, in the middle of all that, he wrote
• 5:14
  Speaker 1: a book called Anti-Semitism. That was just for cover. That
• 5:17
  Speaker 1: was just in case anybody brought up the fact that
• 5:20
  Speaker 1: he was playing along with these anti-Semites. He could point
• 5:23
  Speaker 1: to the book. That's the only reason he wrote that book,
• 5:25
  Speaker 1: just to give himself some cover. But it fooled nobody.
• 5:28
  Speaker 1: It didn't fool anyone. And obviously, Republicans don't like him,
• 5:32
  Speaker 1: except the donors. But Democrats don't like him either, except
• 5:36
  Speaker 1: the donors. But he's finished. If the Democrats win big,
• 5:42
  Speaker 1: First thing they're going to do is throw Schumer the
• 5:44
  Speaker 1: hell out. That'll be the end of Schumer. A lot
• 5:47
  Speaker 1: of establishment politicians will get thrown out if these crazies win.
• 5:52
  Speaker 1: But it looks like Republicans will hold the Senate. The
• 5:55
  Speaker 1: House could go either way. You'd need a lot of
• 6:00
  Speaker 1: momentum and a lot of turnout. That's what this No
• 6:04
  Speaker 1: Kings rally was about. But also you've got Donald Trump
• 6:06
  Speaker 1: out there. If anybody can pull a rabbit out of
• 6:08
  Speaker 1: the hat, it'll be him in the end. The midterms
• 6:12
  Speaker 1: are 15 days away. They're two weeks from tomorrow. You're
• 6:16
  Speaker 1: in the final two weeks of the campaign. And you've
• 6:19
  Speaker 1: got to remember, there's early voting already getting underway. So
• 6:23
  Speaker 1: the election is pretty much on right now. Hey, in
• 6:25
  Speaker 1: the Ukraine, Zelensky turning on President Trump, which is not
• 6:31
  Speaker 1: a smart thing to do, but in his defense, President
• 6:34
  Speaker 1: Trump turned on him first, even last week saying Ukraine
• 6:39
  Speaker 1: should get a new leader. Now, from the beginning, the
• 6:44
  Speaker 1: only reason the Ukraine survived is the U.S. backed it.
• 6:47
  Speaker 1: The only reason the Ukraine is still there is because
• 6:50
  Speaker 1: we provided all the weapons, all the military power, all
• 6:53
  Speaker 1: the money for the first few years. The war is
• 6:56
  Speaker 1: like now, it's like year 27 of this war. Actually,
• 7:00
  Speaker 1: what is it, year five already? Year four or five
• 7:03
  Speaker 1: of this war? But we totally saved Ukraine with weapons,
• 7:09
  Speaker 1: with money, with everything they needed. Now, give Ukraine credit,
• 7:13
  Speaker 1: in the last couple of years, they started to make
• 7:15
  Speaker 1: their own weapons, drones, state-of-the-art, unbelievable drones. They even started
• 7:21
  Speaker 1: to build their own drone factories. They're turning them out
• 7:23
  Speaker 1: by the thousands. Then they started to make their own missiles,
• 7:26
  Speaker 1: their own missile factories. Zelensky has been brilliant about that. Ukraine, amazing.
• 7:32
  Speaker 1: That's how we won World War II, by coming up
• 7:34
  Speaker 1: with the right weapons and being able to manufacture them
• 7:37
  Speaker 1: a lot bigger and better than the enemy. Well, that's
• 7:40
  Speaker 1: what Ukraine has done here with drones and missiles. So
• 7:42
  Speaker 1: that's great. But we've needed them to stop doing certain things.
• 7:48
  Speaker 1: Don't take out the Russian oil refineries because that drives
• 7:52
  Speaker 1: up the price of oil like crazy. And President Trump
• 7:56
  Speaker 1: asked him to stop hitting the refineries. Zelensky didn't listen.
• 8:02
  Speaker 1: And then the next day and the next day and
• 8:03
  Speaker 1: the next day took out Russian oil refineries. He's still
• 8:06
  Speaker 1: doing it. So that upset President Trump. He let Zelensky
• 8:10
  Speaker 1: have it. He even said you should get a new
• 8:12
  Speaker 1: leader in the Ukraine. So Zelensky is going now after Trump.
• 8:17
  Speaker 1: He's afraid to come right out and attack him. But
• 8:20
  Speaker 1: he kind of did here by saying it's the EU,
• 8:23
  Speaker 1: the European Union. They've kind of stepped in and they've
• 8:28
  Speaker 1: been helping out with money and whatever. So listen to this.
• 8:31
  Speaker 1: He's trying to praise the EU for European Union, but
• 8:36
  Speaker 1: he's kind of letting you know, forget Trump. The only
• 8:38
  Speaker 1: ones that are there for me are the EU.
• 8:40
  Speaker 2: I'm so thankful that we have such huge support from EU,
• 8:44
  Speaker 2: Council Commission, and leaders, real leaders, so that they stay
• 8:50
  Speaker 2: with us from the very beginning of this war.
• 8:54
  Speaker 1: See what I mean? They are leaders, real leaders, you know,
• 8:58
  Speaker 1: unlike Trump. All right. He's entitled to that. Trump went
• 9:01
  Speaker 1: after him first. But this... is what was supposed to
• 9:05
  Speaker 1: happen in the first place. It was supposed to be
• 9:07
  Speaker 1: the EU back in the... It wasn't just supposed to
• 9:11
  Speaker 1: be us with the money and the weapons. Where was
• 9:12
  Speaker 1: the EU for the first three, four years? They should
• 9:16
  Speaker 1: have been handling this. It's in their backyard. It's their
• 9:19
  Speaker 1: problem a lot more than it's ours. So, hey, and
• 9:23
  Speaker 1: it turns out, remember last week, the Starlink, the Elon
• 9:28
  Speaker 1: Musk system, the satellite system, Starlink, and they have the
• 9:33
  Speaker 1: military version, which is way beyond the civilian version, the
• 9:37
  Speaker 1: military version. They were depending on that for communications to
• 9:40
  Speaker 1: get their intelligence, U.S. providing them with intelligence. The Starlink
• 9:45
  Speaker 1: was vital to them to find out targeting and all
• 9:48
  Speaker 1: that stuff. Well, it went down last week for a
• 9:51
  Speaker 1: couple of days, and Zelensky blamed Elon Musk. Elon Musk
• 9:59
  Speaker 1: then tweeted out, he has nothing to do with turning
• 10:02
  Speaker 1: on or off the Starlink. That would be the U.S.
• 10:04
  Speaker 1: military and the president. And then the U.S. military and
• 10:08
  Speaker 1: the president said they didn't turn it off. They didn't
• 10:11
  Speaker 1: do anything to it. Zelensky didn't believe them. But now
• 10:15
  Speaker 1: it turns out that it wasn't the U.S. or President Trump.
• 10:19
  Speaker 1: We didn't shut it down. It's just something in the system,
• 10:21
  Speaker 1: it shut itself down for a couple of days. Here's
• 10:24
  Speaker 1: Marco Rubio. Well, I don't know what Zelensky said. I'm
• 10:26
  Speaker 1: not sure Zelensky knows what he's talking about, but it
• 10:28
  Speaker 1: wasn't deliberate. We had nothing to do with it. The
• 10:31
  Speaker 1: United States, nobody ordered that Starlink speed to be slowed down.
• 10:35
  Speaker 1: It sort of happened. Yeah, I mean, hey, you've seen
• 10:38
  Speaker 1: this happen to anything, digital, anything, Internet. It can all
• 10:41
  Speaker 1: of a sudden slow down and needs to be fixed,
• 10:43
  Speaker 1: and that was what happened. Hey, speaking of all this stuff, AI.
• 10:50
  Speaker 1: You know, the AI stocks have been going crazy there, obviously.
• 10:53
  Speaker 1: I mean, if you bought AI stocks a while back,
• 10:56
  Speaker 1: you're making a lot of money. Way, way, way up. So,
• 11:01
  Speaker 1: why are they suddenly dropping a little? Because a lot
• 11:05
  Speaker 1: of investors have convinced themselves. I don't mean the real investors.
• 11:08
  Speaker 1: I don't mean the Warren Buffetts. I mean the amateur investors,
• 11:14
  Speaker 1: the other investors. They've all convinced themselves this is a
• 11:16
  Speaker 1: bubble and it's going to burst and they're going to
• 11:18
  Speaker 1: come crashing down. So a lot of them are panicking
• 11:21
  Speaker 1: right now. There's panic. They're selling the AI stocks because
• 11:25
  Speaker 1: they've gone up way too much, way too far. And
• 11:28
  Speaker 1: they'll give you all these stories about how the pattern
• 11:30
  Speaker 1: matches the pattern of the dot-com bubble, of the this bubble.
• 11:34
  Speaker 1: It looks like it's a bubble pattern. They can see it.
• 11:37
  Speaker 1: They can't see anything. So the AI stocks have been dropping. However...
• 11:45
  Speaker 1: all of a sudden there's big NASDAQ gains because the
• 11:48
  Speaker 1: real investors, the ones that actually know what they're doing,
• 11:52
  Speaker 1: are buying the dip. The dip has caused them to
• 11:55
  Speaker 1: come in, and those are the big investors, big money investors.
• 11:58
  Speaker 1: So that's why you're seeing this little NASDAQ spike right now.
• 12:02
  Speaker 1: You know, the Warren Buffetts of the world will always
• 12:04
  Speaker 1: tell you that when everybody is in panic, when everybody
• 12:11
  Speaker 1: says it's crashing, when everybody's fleeing, That's when they buy.
• 12:15
  Speaker 1: That's the time to buy. When everybody's enthusiastic, don't buy.
• 12:20
  Speaker 1: When everybody's in panic, everybody's in fear, that's when they buy.
• 12:25
  Speaker 1: So Bruce Blakeman has caught up to Kathy Hochul in
• 12:29
  Speaker 1: the polls. He may even be passing her right now.
• 12:31
  Speaker 1: But don't get complacent. This is a turnout election. You've
• 12:34
  Speaker 1: got to get out there and vote. Hochul was in
• 12:38
  Speaker 1: panic already. That's why she spent millions and millions on
• 12:41
  Speaker 1: these attack ads. She's using up a lot of her money.
• 12:44
  Speaker 1: The Democratic Governors Group had to step in. They had
• 12:47
  Speaker 1: to lend her money. They've poured in $ 4 million. This
• 12:50
  Speaker 1: is how desperate she's getting. Another $ 4 million from them.
• 12:53
  Speaker 1: Who is that Democratic Governors Group? Well, a big chunk
• 12:57
  Speaker 1: of the money came from Mayor Bloomberg and then from
• 13:01
  Speaker 1: the New York Hospital Association Management Corporation. They each put
• 13:05
  Speaker 1: in a million dollars. Another $ 600, 000 came from the Sports
• 13:11
  Speaker 1: Betting Alliance. John Hess, he's the CEO of Hess Corporation.
• 13:16
  Speaker 1: He put in $ 600, 000. The Super PAC on Saturday released
• 13:21
  Speaker 1: two different ads slamming Blakeman. Now, what do you attack
• 13:27
  Speaker 1: Blakeman on? They did tons of opposition research. They dug
• 13:30
  Speaker 1: into everything about Blakeman. You know what they found? Nothing.
• 13:34
  Speaker 1: Not a bad, not a damn thing. I mean, they
• 13:37
  Speaker 1: did some serious opposition research. There is no skeleton in
• 13:40
  Speaker 1: the Blakeman closet. They could not find anything to attack
• 13:44
  Speaker 1: him on. So what are the ads? Well, the first
• 13:47
  Speaker 1: one is about MAGA Bruce Blakeman. He's MAGA. He's MAGA.
• 13:51
  Speaker 1: He's MAGA. If that's all you got. He is friends
• 13:55
  Speaker 1: with Donald Trump. He agrees with him on some things.
• 13:58
  Speaker 1: He disagrees with him on a lot of things. Disagrees
• 14:00
  Speaker 1: with him on major things. He's pro-choice. Trump is not.
• 14:05
  Speaker 1: Trump actually is, but he pretends he's not. There's a
• 14:09
  Speaker 1: lot of issues he disagrees with him on. Uh, but they, um,
• 14:13
  Speaker 1: they're calling them MAGA, uh, the other attack ad, uh,
• 14:18
  Speaker 1: same thing, same thing there. His support of Donald Trump's
• 14:22
  Speaker 1: cost raising agenda is hurting New York. No, it's, he's
• 14:25
  Speaker 1: not supporting anything that's raising costs. Blakeman firing back, calling
• 14:30
  Speaker 1: Hochul a useful tool who takes orders from Mamdani, uh,
• 14:34
  Speaker 1: I wouldn't call her moderate. She's an extremist. I don't
• 14:37
  Speaker 1: care what she calls herself, but look at her record.
• 14:39
  Speaker 1: Highest taxes in the United States.
• 14:41
  Speaker 2: Extreme.
• 14:42
  Speaker 1: Utility bills 75% higher than the national average. That's a
• 14:47
  Speaker 1: good point. You want to associate him with Trump when
• 14:50
  Speaker 1: you're totally, totally connected to Mamdani in every way. Hey,
• 14:56
  Speaker 1: we'll take some calls next. 800-321-0710 is the number. We'd
• 15:01
  Speaker 1: love to hear from you, especially if you're a new caller,
• 15:02
  Speaker 1: if you've never called before.
• 15:04
  Speaker 2: 800-321-0710.
