Hour 2: Bibi Netanyahu's numbers. · Curtis Sliwa & Larry Mendte In The Morning

• 0:00
  Speaker 1: New York is flipping the script on how it wakes up.
• 0:03
  Speaker 1: Curtis Lewa and Larry Minty in the morning on 710WOR.
• 0:11
  Speaker 2: So the Lindsay Clancy trial ended the way that everybody
• 0:16
  Speaker 2: thought it was going to end, especially when messages were
• 0:20
  Speaker 2: sent from the jurors saying they are irrequivocally tied, that
• 0:26
  Speaker 2: there was one juror that was disagreeing with everyone else.
• 0:30
  Speaker 2: that that juror was not following the law, they said
• 0:33
  Speaker 2: at one point. And the judge did the right thing,
• 0:36
  Speaker 2: just sent them back. He didn't put his finger on
• 0:38
  Speaker 2: the scale for either side. They went back. That happened Thursday.
• 0:42
  Speaker 2: They went back for another day. And then on Friday,
• 0:45
  Speaker 2: a mistrial was announced. And one of the sickest things
• 0:50
  Speaker 2: that happened after that mistrial is this is a woman
• 0:54
  Speaker 2: that for whatever reason, killed three young children, five, three,
• 0:59
  Speaker 2: and eight months. Three young children, looked them in the
• 1:02
  Speaker 2: face and strangled each one of them, ran after one
• 1:05
  Speaker 2: of them when they tried to get away. And yet
• 1:09
  Speaker 2: there were women outside, and I'm not talking about just
• 1:12
  Speaker 2: a couple, I'm talking about a few dozen, maybe over
• 1:15
  Speaker 2: a hundred women that lined up outside the courtroom along
• 1:20
  Speaker 2: the pathway out to applaud her as she drove by.
• 1:33
  Speaker 2: It's just sick. There's nothing to applaud in this case.
• 1:38
  Speaker 2: I don't care if you believe it was post-mortem, post-mortem,
• 1:43
  Speaker 2: post-partum psychosis. I don't care. I don't really care if
• 1:47
  Speaker 2: that's what you believe. I don't care if you think
• 1:50
  Speaker 2: that she has no idea what she did. There's still
• 1:54
  Speaker 2: three children that are dead. And in this entire trial,
• 1:58
  Speaker 2: it seems like they were forgotten from the beginning. And
• 2:03
  Speaker 2: here's the strange thing. So whoever this one person was,
• 2:07
  Speaker 2: it sounds like that person saved her from a guilty verdict.
• 2:13
  Speaker 2: So why is her attorney so upset?
• 2:16
  Speaker 3: I don't know if we will ever be able to
• 2:18
  Speaker 3: get jurors that.
• 2:20
  Speaker 1: Aren't aware of this case anywhere.
• 2:23
  Speaker 2: New York, Washington, Georgia, Japan. Yeah, they're talking about the
• 2:29
  Speaker 2: fact that they may not be able to have another trial.
• 2:32
  Speaker 2: Hopefully they'll come up with a plea deal. Here's what
• 2:34
  Speaker 2: could happen now. The conditions for the defendant, she'll now
• 2:38
  Speaker 2: go back to prison during her pretrial. So CBS News
• 2:43
  Speaker 2: has reported that out of Boston. That means Clancy will
• 2:46
  Speaker 2: remain in custody and under psychiatric care at a state
• 2:50
  Speaker 2: hospital where she's been since 2023. They have a cell
• 2:54
  Speaker 2: there for her as well. If Clancy had been found
• 2:58
  Speaker 2: not guilty by reason of insanity, she would have remained
• 3:02
  Speaker 2: at the mental health facility indefinitely anyway. If she was
• 3:06
  Speaker 2: found criminally responsible for the murders, she would have gone
• 3:10
  Speaker 2: to prison. Now we have to decide whether there's going
• 3:13
  Speaker 2: to be a new trial or not. So the Plymouth
• 3:16
  Speaker 2: County District Attorney, Timothy Cruz, who has been prosecuting the
• 3:20
  Speaker 2: case today, will decide if Clancy will be retried for
• 3:24
  Speaker 2: first-degree murder or a lesser charge with a new jury,
• 3:29
  Speaker 2: or possibly, as I mentioned a second ago, there could
• 3:33
  Speaker 2: be a plea deal and then it wouldn't have to
• 3:35
  Speaker 2: be retried. In a news conference outside right afterwards, Cruz
• 3:40
  Speaker 2: said he would not be announcing those plans immediately. He's
• 3:45
  Speaker 2: going to meet with his team and he's going to
• 3:47
  Speaker 2: meet with others in the prosecutor's office immediately. and get
• 3:50
  Speaker 2: some advice. Clancy's defense attorney, who you heard from a
• 3:54
  Speaker 2: second ago, Kevin Reddington, said earlier in the week that
• 3:58
  Speaker 2: he'd be ready to retry the case if needed, but
• 4:01
  Speaker 2: believes that his client is not emotionally prepared to undergo
• 4:07
  Speaker 2: a second trial. So that's where we are, Curtis.
• 4:10
  Speaker 1: Well, now, you mentioned the other 11 jurors. My assumption
• 4:15
  Speaker 1: was that they were voting to basically find her not
• 4:20
  Speaker 1: guilty based on psychiatric impairment, and that the one holdout
• 4:26
  Speaker 1: wanted some kind of penalty against her, at least a
• 4:29
  Speaker 1: criminal penalty. At least that was what I concluded from
• 4:33
  Speaker 1: the juror being a holdout. I think what clearly came
• 4:37
  Speaker 1: down from this case is the gender split. Men almost
• 4:42
  Speaker 1: overwhelmingly You know, you had some who said, well, if
• 4:45
  Speaker 1: this was a man, you know, he would have been
• 4:47
  Speaker 1: found guilty, lock him up, throw away the key, but
• 4:50
  Speaker 1: because it's a woman. And then there were women who
• 4:53
  Speaker 1: came forward and many of them who said, look, postpartum
• 4:56
  Speaker 1: depression is a serious thing, but postpartum psychosis is something
• 5:01
  Speaker 1: that requires immediate hospitalization because you're completely out of control
• 5:06
  Speaker 1: at that point. So I think it's a clear gender issue.
• 5:12
  Speaker 1: differentiation in terms of the way people are looking at this. Men,
• 5:17
  Speaker 1: very hardcore that she should have been locked up. I
• 5:20
  Speaker 1: think a lot more women definitely, since some have gone
• 5:24
  Speaker 1: through this situation themselves, who are much more open-minded in
• 5:28
  Speaker 1: terms of what should have been done. In the meantime,
• 5:31
  Speaker 1: there was a GoFundMe page set up for the parents
• 5:34
  Speaker 1: of Lindsay Clancy. because of their travel back and forth
• 5:39
  Speaker 1: to Plymouth for the case. They've raised a million dollars
• 5:44
  Speaker 1: for that, and that's growing. And then over the weekend,
• 5:47
  Speaker 1: the husband was found by the paparazzi somewhere in midtown
• 5:53
  Speaker 1: Manhattan walking around. And I got to say to myself,
• 5:56
  Speaker 1: it's not like if I put a lineup together, I
• 6:00
  Speaker 1: could ask paparazzi, do you know who this guy is,
• 6:03
  Speaker 1: Lindsay Clancy's husband?
• 6:05
  Speaker 2: I have to assume.
• 6:07
  Speaker 1: that maybe he wanted to be seen in public now
• 6:10
  Speaker 1: that at least the first wave of that case is over.
• 6:13
  Speaker 1: Cause he's living in Manhattan apparently with his new wife, um, and, um,
• 6:19
  Speaker 1: He's decided to make this his home now, although he
• 6:23
  Speaker 1: has not looked upon at all. In fact, Natalie, you
• 6:27
  Speaker 1: were telling me that down on the Jersey Shore in
• 6:29
  Speaker 1: terms of your conversations this weekend that there was a
• 6:31
  Speaker 1: woman who actually bought into everything that our own Natalie
• 6:35
  Speaker 1: Magliore was talking about. She and her friends who believe
• 6:40
  Speaker 1: that the husband might have been culpable.
• 6:43
  Speaker 2: Oh, she absolutely believed it. I mean, she went on
• 6:47
  Speaker 2: for a very long time.
• 6:49
  Speaker 4: About detailed, like, actual very, very, very detailed descriptions of
• 6:55
  Speaker 4: this and that.
• 6:56
  Speaker 2: I'm like, so she was paying attention. Yeah, but some
• 6:59
  Speaker 2: of the things, and she said it on the air here,
• 7:01
  Speaker 2: were just wrong. Like, he didn't get married four months afterwards.
• 7:05
  Speaker 2: That just didn't happen. It was a long time afterwards.
• 7:08
  Speaker 2: It was after her arrest. It was six months after
• 7:10
  Speaker 2: the arrest. And that was a long time after the
• 7:12
  Speaker 2: incident happened. So it was.
• 7:16
  Speaker 2: There's so much... misinformation out there. It's incredible, including the
• 7:22
  Speaker 2: back and forth as to who was the holdout, because
• 7:24
  Speaker 2: none of the jurors have spoken yet, so we don't
• 7:26
  Speaker 2: know exactly. We assumed what you said, because why would
• 7:30
  Speaker 2: the defense attorney have objected so strongly if he didn't
• 7:36
  Speaker 2: believe that one juror was against an acquittal, was against
• 7:41
  Speaker 2: an acquittal of criminal charges and was for psychiatric treatment?
• 7:44
  Speaker 2: But we don't know at this point, and there's been
• 7:47
  Speaker 2: two really distinct chains of thought on it as well.
• 7:53
  Speaker 2: And so that's what makes the case so fascinating is
• 7:56
  Speaker 2: there's so many players, so many theories, and so many
• 8:00
  Speaker 2: things involved. And everybody's talking about all of that. And
• 8:04
  Speaker 2: I'm sorry, I'll just keep saying, there's three children dead.
• 8:08
  Speaker 2: And that gets lost in all of this. In the
• 8:10
  Speaker 2: whole drama of it, that gets lost. There's three children
• 8:14
  Speaker 2: who aren't going to live a life. Five, three, and
• 8:17
  Speaker 2: eight months old. And that's really where it begins and
• 8:20
  Speaker 2: ends with me. And so if that one juror was
• 8:24
  Speaker 2: a holdout for acquittal, against acquittal, I would have been
• 8:30
  Speaker 2: that juror.
• 8:30
  Speaker 1: Well, you know why we're going to find out real quick?
• 8:33
  Speaker 1: In the business you used to be involved in, TV news,
• 8:37
  Speaker 1: they were already hunting for jurors for the first exclusive interview,
• 8:42
  Speaker 1: which they'll pay for. probably one of the morning shows.
• 8:47
  Speaker 1: They'll pay a lot of money to be the first
• 8:49
  Speaker 1: with exclusivity in terms of what went on in the
• 8:52
  Speaker 1: jury room, what were your discussions, what was the disagreement.
• 8:56
  Speaker 1: Maybe they'll even have the holdout juror themselves on or
• 9:00
  Speaker 1: one of the other 11 who clearly were voting in tandem.
• 9:05
  Speaker 1: I think just based on, as you pointed out, the
• 9:07
  Speaker 1: defense attorney representing Lindsey Clancy, who wanted that juror removed
• 9:12
  Speaker 1: and replaced by an alternative juror. You always have like
• 9:16
  Speaker 1: six alternative jurors who hear the whole case. They just
• 9:19
  Speaker 1: don't get involved in the deliberations. And the judge said,
• 9:22
  Speaker 1: absolutely not. I find no reason. to replace that juror.
• 9:25
  Speaker 1: It's not like all of a sudden they're fighting, they're disruptive,
• 9:30
  Speaker 1: they're having a mental breakdown themselves. Sometimes that's happened in
• 9:33
  Speaker 1: the past, and that's when you have an alternative juror
• 9:36
  Speaker 1: who then sits in for the rest of the deliberation.
• 9:38
  Speaker 2: You said they'll pay for it so matter-of-factly, and I
• 9:42
  Speaker 2: certainly hope that's not happening. I've heard that it's happened,
• 9:47
  Speaker 2: but I will tell you now, any network that you
• 9:50
  Speaker 2: work for, and I've worked for The three biggest networks, ABC, NBC,
• 9:55
  Speaker 2: and CBS I've worked for all of them. You're told
• 9:59
  Speaker 2: by no uncertain terms, you cannot pay for an interview ever. Now,
• 10:04
  Speaker 2: I don't know if that's changed recently because like you,
• 10:07
  Speaker 2: I've heard that it's happened, but it's not supposed to happen.
• 10:11
  Speaker 2: And it used to be not long ago, a fireable offense.
• 10:16
  Speaker 2: So I want to do a deep dive on that because-
• 10:20
  Speaker 2: The rules have changed. Did anybody get paid for O.J.? Oh, man.
• 10:24
  Speaker 2: I mean, you get hired. You hire somebody. But to
• 10:28
  Speaker 2: pay is– I don't think it– I would be shocked
• 10:31
  Speaker 2: if it happened.
• 10:32
  Speaker 1: I wouldn't be shocked at all based on people wanting
• 10:34
  Speaker 1: to be the first. Exclusivity, ratings wars have gone. This
• 10:39
  Speaker 1: is a case. that had almost as much attention as O.J.
• 10:43
  Speaker 2: Almost. Not quite. Yeah, not quite, because it wasn't televised
• 10:46
  Speaker 2: every day nationally. Right, right, right.
• 10:48
  Speaker 1: And it didn't have the racial composition, which, as you know,
• 10:51
  Speaker 1: always divides America. And it didn't have somebody like O.J.,
• 10:55
  Speaker 1: who was the iconic figure for America. But towards the
• 11:00
  Speaker 1: end of the trial— People were actually watching every moment
• 11:05
  Speaker 1: that they could.
• 11:06
  Speaker 2: Oh, absolutely. And having constant discussions. And then the car
• 11:09
  Speaker 2: chase to top it off, the Encore Act. Hey, listen,
• 11:13
  Speaker 2: we lost a great one. And he's hit and die.
• 11:16
  Speaker 2: He's just retiring. And he's 70 years old. But man,
• 11:20
  Speaker 2: the great Rick Santelli of CNBC is going to retire soon.
• 11:25
  Speaker 2: coming up in October. We'll talk about his career, plus
• 11:29
  Speaker 2: a chance to see Andrea Bocelli at 825. Curtis Lewa
• 11:33
  Speaker 2: and Larry Menti in the morning. The conversation continues. 710 W.O.R.
• 11:41
  Speaker 2: I really hate to see him go. Rick Santelli is retiring.
• 11:47
  Speaker 2: Rick Santelli became a strong conservative voice on CNBC on
• 11:53
  Speaker 2: their morning show, that they were ahead on almost everything
• 11:59
  Speaker 2: because economic numbers would come out during their show, and
• 12:02
  Speaker 2: there's nobody better. on any network TV than reading those numbers.
• 12:09
  Speaker 2: He gets so excited when new economics numbers come out.
• 12:13
  Speaker 2: They give him a special spotlight, and they do a
• 12:16
  Speaker 2: countdown until the numbers come out, and then he reacts
• 12:19
  Speaker 2: like he did on Friday, when, by the way, the
• 12:22
  Speaker 2: jobs numbers were almost triple what they were forecast to be.
• 12:26
  Speaker 2: Of course, nobody covered that, but Rick Santelli, man, he
• 12:29
  Speaker 2: got excited. Hold on to your seats, folks. Non-farm payrolls
• 12:34
  Speaker 2: for the month of August up 162K. 162,000.
• 12:40
  Speaker 1: That's basically three times what expectations are.
• 12:46
  Speaker 2: So nobody did that better than Rick Santelli. He was
• 12:49
  Speaker 2: unbelievably excited every time an economic number came out. And
• 12:54
  Speaker 2: he's also famous for getting into pretty deep continuous arguments
• 13:01
  Speaker 2: with Andrew Sorkin from the New York Times, the financial reporter,
• 13:06
  Speaker 2: maybe the only liberal member of their cast in the mornings.
• 13:11
  Speaker 2: And like during the shutdown, listen to this. You're wearing
• 13:13
  Speaker 2: a mask. You can have your thoughts and I can
• 13:14
  Speaker 2: have mine. You're required to wear a mask. I disagree.
• 13:16
  Speaker 5: It's science.
• 13:17
  Speaker 2: I'm sorry. It's science. It's not science. If you're wearing
• 13:20
  Speaker 2: a mask, it's a different story.
• 13:21
  Speaker 1: 500 people in a Lowe's aren't any safer than 150
• 13:25
  Speaker 1: people in a restaurant that holds 600.
• 13:27
  Speaker 2: I don't believe it.
• 13:28
  Speaker 3: Sorry.
• 13:29
  Speaker 2: Don't believe it. And I live in an area where
• 13:31
  Speaker 2: there are a lot of restaurants that have fought back
• 13:33
  Speaker 2: and they don't have any problems. He was great. Yep.
• 13:38
  Speaker 2: He was just so much fun. But, you know, I
• 13:40
  Speaker 2: know what you're going to say. He's famous for the
• 13:42
  Speaker 2: tea party. Yeah.
• 13:43
  Speaker 1: But also, I was on CNBC a few times in
• 13:47
  Speaker 1: the morning, and they were trying to beat me up,
• 13:49
  Speaker 1: you know, to get me to drop out. Thankfully, he
• 13:51
  Speaker 1: did not contribute. uh to that uh jumping on me
• 13:55
  Speaker 1: but it'll be interesting well you.
• 13:57
  Speaker 2: Probably didn't see him he's based in chicago yeah.
• 13:59
  Speaker 1: No no but you could see him on the screen
• 14:01
  Speaker 1: oh yeah he would read the numbers and that and.
• 14:03
  Speaker 2: They kept him up a lot because of his opinions
• 14:05
  Speaker 2: exactly but we do have jimmy failure coming up in
• 14:09
  Speaker 2: the eight o'clock hour the full eight o'clock hour let
• 14:12
  Speaker 2: me play one last thing because he can comment on
• 14:15
  Speaker 2: him too i'm sure he loves the guy because this
• 14:17
  Speaker 2: is what he's famous for Do you remember? This is
• 14:19
  Speaker 2: what made him Rick Santelli, the voice, because he was
• 14:25
  Speaker 2: upset about the way the government was spending money and
• 14:28
  Speaker 2: went on this rant on the Chicago Board of Exchange.
• 14:33
  Speaker 2: about starting a tea party.
• 14:34
  Speaker 1: We're thinking of having a Chicago tea party in July.
• 14:38
  Speaker 1: All you capitalists that want to show up to Lake Michigan, I'm.
• 14:41
  Speaker 2: Going to start organizing. What are you dumping in this time?
• 14:45
  Speaker 2: They're applauding for him.
• 14:46
  Speaker 1: How's he going to be dumping in some derivative securities?
• 14:50
  Speaker 3: Mayor Daley is marshalling the police right now.
• 14:55
  Speaker 2: National Guard. God bless him. October 2nd. He's 70 years old.
• 15:00
  Speaker 2: He's going to retire. We're going to miss him.
• 15:02
  Speaker 1: Well, actually, what I was going to say is Jimmy
• 15:04
  Speaker 1: Failure might have the inside scoop of the former CNBC
• 15:09
  Speaker 1: contributor who then went over to Fox News Channel.
• 15:11
  Speaker 2: Business, Maria Bartiromo.
• 15:15
  Speaker 1: Apparently, that's right, coming up in the 8 o'clock hour. Man,
• 15:18
  Speaker 1: I am going to drill down on him. I said, Jimmy, Jimmy,
• 15:21
  Speaker 1: what came from the Murdoch's? What was the exact language
• 15:25
  Speaker 1: of that memo that apparently Maria Bartiromo.
• 15:28
  Speaker 2: Defied or passed on to the White House? You're going
• 15:31
  Speaker 2: to get him fired. Hey, look, that's tough noogies, man.
• 15:35
  Speaker 2: He's a big boy. But let's see how he does
• 15:37
  Speaker 2: his pivoting shift.
• 15:39
  Speaker 1: Because you notice everyone else at the Fox News Channel,
• 15:41
  Speaker 1: they're taking hush, hush, mush, mush.
• 15:43
  Speaker 2: They're not saying anything. He's going to have to weigh it.
• 15:45
  Speaker 2: Do I care more about Curtis Sliwa or about the
• 15:48
  Speaker 2: Murdoch family in my job? Curtis Sliwa, the Murdoch family
• 15:53
  Speaker 2: in my job. I will tell you this.
• 15:55
  Speaker 1: If he doesn't answer forthright, I will get the duct
• 15:58
  Speaker 1: tape that I have right here and I will duct tape.
• 16:01
  Speaker 2: Him to the seat and.
• 16:03
  Speaker 1: Cover his mouth so he can't speak throughout the.
• 16:06
  Speaker 2: 8 o'clock hour. Just like that guy on that flight
• 16:08
  Speaker 2: from Dallas supposed to go to Newark, never made it.
• 16:11
  Speaker 2: So that's coming up in the 8 o'clock hour. Let's
• 16:14
  Speaker 2: get some talkbacks.
• 16:15
  Speaker 3: The story isn't Lindsay Clancy anymore. She's going to be
• 16:18
  Speaker 3: punished one way or another. The story should be the
• 16:22
  Speaker 3: Rogue 11 jurors who disregarded the judge's instructions.
• 16:28
  Speaker 1: I don't know if it's the Rogue 11 or the
• 16:33
  Speaker 1: Rogue 1. So hopefully that gets clarified this week when
• 16:37
  Speaker 1: the first interview will take place. Probably. Probably.
• 16:40
  Speaker 2: With one of the jury members. Oh, yeah, they're out
• 16:44
  Speaker 2: there right now trying to woo a jury member. And
• 16:47
  Speaker 2: there are organizations that pay. If TMZ's there, TMZ's going
• 16:52
  Speaker 2: to deal out some money. So now let's get the
• 16:55
  Speaker 2: news at 8.30. Let's make it 7.30. 7.30. Well, you
• 17:00
  Speaker 2: can read time. Sometimes. You're smart that way. You're freaked
• 17:04
  Speaker 2: out half of New York, though. Damn it, I'm late.
• 17:10
  Speaker 1: Curtis lewa and larry menti in the morning live from
• 17:14
  Speaker 1: the wor life back studios so remember a while back
• 17:24
  Speaker 1: larry i was referring to a special meeting in february
• 17:28
  Speaker 1: i think it was about february 13th uh bb netanyahu
• 17:32
  Speaker 1: come over and uh with his Mossad chief on a
• 17:37
  Speaker 1: big screen TV, was in the Situation Room under the
• 17:40
  Speaker 1: White House, and in rapt attention was the President of
• 17:44
  Speaker 1: the United States, Donald Trump, Hegseth, the Secretary of War,
• 17:49
  Speaker 1: Marco Rubio, Secretary of State, and the CIA Director Radcliffe.
• 17:56
  Speaker 1: And at that point, Bibi was making the case for war.
• 18:00
  Speaker 1: He said, we know that the Ayatollah and some of
• 18:04
  Speaker 1: his key confidants, leaders, the Mullahs and the secular leaders
• 18:10
  Speaker 1: are going to be all in one location and we're
• 18:12
  Speaker 1: going to decapitate them. We're going to go in there
• 18:14
  Speaker 1: and wipe them out. We'd like you to join us.
• 18:17
  Speaker 1: We think this can be a short war. We can
• 18:21
  Speaker 1: win this. There'll be a rebellion within the ranks of
• 18:24
  Speaker 1: the citizens already who've shown a willingness to overthrow this regime. Unfortunately,
• 18:30
  Speaker 1: so many were killed out in the streets. Everything is
• 18:33
  Speaker 1: going to go our way. So the president listened to
• 18:36
  Speaker 1: Bibi and the Mossad chief from Tel Aviv and then
• 18:40
  Speaker 1: summoned his cabinet. The next day in the Situation Room, Radcliffe,
• 18:44
  Speaker 1: the CIA director, said, Nah, it's not going to be
• 18:48
  Speaker 1: an insurrection. I wouldn't go in that direction, Mr.
• 18:50
  Speaker 2: President. Marco Rubio said, Bibi, he's always upselling. He's always upselling.
• 18:55
  Speaker 1: The only one who was totally into it was Hegseth,
• 18:58
  Speaker 1: the Secretary of War, and the President signed off on it.
• 19:03
  Speaker 1: And thereafter, people like myself would say, this is Bibi's war.
• 19:06
  Speaker 1: Bibi got us into this. We had no interest in
• 19:09
  Speaker 1: going to war against Iran. And then all of a
• 19:11
  Speaker 1: sudden it turned around after that meeting. Well, now it
• 19:15
  Speaker 1: appears with Bibi out there campaigning, his parliamentary elections are
• 19:20
  Speaker 1: at the end of October. And right now, the polls
• 19:24
  Speaker 1: show that his coalition would lose. He has acknowledged to Israelis,
• 19:31
  Speaker 1: he said, yeah, yeah, I'm the guy who got Trump
• 19:34
  Speaker 1: involved in the war.
• 19:35
  Speaker 2: I'm the guy who got him to join us.
• 19:39
  Speaker 1: Which is directly contrary to what the president of the
• 19:41
  Speaker 1: United States has told us over and over.
• 19:43
  Speaker 2: And what he has said over and over again, he
• 19:46
  Speaker 2: has said that he did not influence him. He said
• 19:49
  Speaker 2: nobody can influence him. Donald Trump. He called it fake news.
• 19:52
  Speaker 2: And he said, quote, nobody tells Donald Trump what to do. Now,
• 19:58
  Speaker 2: now he's saying he was able to convince him, but
• 20:01
  Speaker 2: it wasn't direct. He says that he influenced Trump and
• 20:06
  Speaker 2: the American public by his hundreds of appearances on American
• 20:11
  Speaker 2: TV and by using social media. He is desperate right now.
• 20:17
  Speaker 2: He is just lying. Either it was a lie when
• 20:20
  Speaker 2: he said you can't persuade Donald Trump that way, you
• 20:24
  Speaker 2: can't tell him what to do, or it's a lie
• 20:26
  Speaker 2: when he speaks on Hebrew television. By the way, when
• 20:31
  Speaker 2: he spoke on American television, he said something very different.
• 20:34
  Speaker 2: He spoke on Hebrew television as he's getting close to
• 20:38
  Speaker 2: an election. So what do you believe is going on?
• 20:40
  Speaker 2: I believe that he thinks in his mind that that
• 20:44
  Speaker 2: he has to own this war as much as he
• 20:46
  Speaker 2: can to win the election. What he doesn't realize is
• 20:50
  Speaker 2: that Donald Trump in Israel is leagues more popular than
• 20:55
  Speaker 2: he is. Donald Trump is in the 90%. He's in
• 20:58
  Speaker 2: the fifties, sometimes in the forties. So you're going to
• 21:03
  Speaker 2: get Donald Trump. You're going to shake the bear, the
• 21:05
  Speaker 2: bear that can come out and say something negative against
• 21:08
  Speaker 2: you and sink your election and It was, first of all,
• 21:12
  Speaker 2: I think it was a lie. Secondly, it was a
• 21:15
  Speaker 2: stupid lie because it may cost him the election. Well,
• 21:18
  Speaker 2: as you know, I don't believe it's a lie.
• 21:20
  Speaker 1: I believe he was such a good salesperson in front
• 21:23
  Speaker 1: of Donald Trump. He was able to describe the decapitation,
• 21:28
  Speaker 1: which they successfully did. They took out 40-plus Ayatollah himself,
• 21:33
  Speaker 1: and they were hoping that there would be an insurrection.
• 21:36
  Speaker 1: He almost guaranteed it. That's when Radcliffe, the next day,
• 21:40
  Speaker 1: our CIA director said, no, Mr. President, it's not going
• 21:43
  Speaker 1: to happen. The work hasn't been done to guarantee an insurrection.
• 21:47
  Speaker 1: Nobody has the weapons there to rebel against whoever replaces
• 21:51
  Speaker 1: the Ayatollah and whatever new leadership emerges. So he's dug
• 21:56
  Speaker 1: this hole for himself. We're involved whether we like it
• 22:01
  Speaker 1: or not. Even somebody like Huckabee, who couldn't be more
• 22:05
  Speaker 1: supportive of Bibi.
• 22:07
  Speaker 2: And Israel as our U.S.
• 22:09
  Speaker 1: Ambassador, first non-Jewish ambassador we've ever had to Israel itself,
• 22:15
  Speaker 1: has called what's going on in the West Bank terrorism
• 22:19
  Speaker 1: on the part of some of the settlers who are
• 22:21
  Speaker 1: taking Palestinian land. It's like, Bibi, you've got to get
• 22:25
  Speaker 1: control of your country. He continues to bomb southern Lebanon.
• 22:30
  Speaker 1: He is a— Yeah, I know you don't like him.
• 22:32
  Speaker 2: I get it.
• 22:32
  Speaker 1: I know, but he's a partner that we can't depend on.
• 22:36
  Speaker 2: You see, that's the problem. But the thing is now,
• 22:39
  Speaker 2: as it comes to America, as it comes to him
• 22:41
  Speaker 2: saying that Donald Trump was swayed by this, that's going
• 22:45
  Speaker 2: to infuriate Donald Trump. It's going to infuriate him, I
• 22:48
  Speaker 2: can tell you now. They've already had a discussion, I
• 22:51
  Speaker 2: would guess, at this point. They've already had a discussion
• 22:53
  Speaker 2: about this. It's going to be interesting to see what
• 22:56
  Speaker 2: Netanyahu does now, because he's got the election, and now
• 22:59
  Speaker 2: he has Donald Trump. What does he go to? Does
• 23:03
  Speaker 2: he double down on this? Because if he doubles down,
• 23:08
  Speaker 2: he risks now alienating Donald Trump. Oh, yeah.
• 23:11
  Speaker 1: And remember, Trump, the president, has been asked, does he
• 23:14
  Speaker 1: have a favorite in the upcoming parliamentary elections? And he
• 23:17
  Speaker 1: has said, No, I haven't made a decision on that.
• 23:20
  Speaker 1: So there's no clear conclusive statement from our president that
• 23:25
  Speaker 1: he's going to support Bibi or any other coalition member
• 23:28
  Speaker 1: who may get the majority necessary. But the interesting thing is.
• 23:32
  Speaker 1: He is the most Americanized of prime ministers other than
• 23:35
  Speaker 1: Golda Meir, who came out of Milwaukee. He understood America.
• 23:39
  Speaker 1: He went to MIT. He knew how to communicate with America.
• 23:43
  Speaker 1: So if he's saying that he influenced us, he took
• 23:47
  Speaker 1: American support. It was at 90% after that vicious attack
• 23:52
  Speaker 1: of October 7th. to the point now where there's almost
• 23:55
  Speaker 1: as much support for Hamas as there is for Israel. So, Bibi,
• 24:00
  Speaker 1: you may have influenced us before because you understood the
• 24:03
  Speaker 1: American psyche and the way Americans think. In this one,
• 24:07
  Speaker 1: you couldn't be more hopelessly wrong. Because the percentages against
• 24:12
  Speaker 1: Israel now are the worst I've ever seen.
• 24:15
  Speaker 2: The worst. No, I agree with you. And I will
• 24:18
  Speaker 2: tell you that this is going to hurt Netanyahu much
• 24:23
  Speaker 2: more than it hurts Donald Trump in this country. He
• 24:26
  Speaker 2: has 90% Republican in this country. They're not going to
• 24:28
  Speaker 2: turn on him. Well, when we come back. Natalie Migliore.
• 24:34
  Speaker 2: What is Natalie Migliore doing for a Beat on the Street? Oh,
• 24:37
  Speaker 2: on 9-11. On 9-11 Tribune. All week, right? All week, yes.
• 24:40
  Speaker 2: It's going to be all week. Natalie Migliore. Natalie gave
• 24:44
  Speaker 2: me a piece of paper, and she had to come
• 24:47
  Speaker 2: over and point, even after we got it out, that
• 24:50
  Speaker 2: she wrote that damn darn it. That was her point.
• 24:54
  Speaker 2: That was her you idiot point.
• 24:57
  Speaker 1: Look at that.
• 24:58
  Speaker 2: I'm surprised you didn't make the paper shake when you
• 25:00
  Speaker 2: pointed it. Today, some of the youngest people at the
• 25:04
  Speaker 2: time of the 9-11 attack reflect on that life-changing day.
• 25:09
  Speaker 1: All this week, Natalie Migliore is going to dedicate her
• 25:13
  Speaker 1: beat on the street, of course, to 9-11 and the
• 25:15
  Speaker 1: memories of.
• 25:16
  Speaker 2: 9-11 that still has scarred not only the country, but
• 25:20
  Speaker 2: especially New York City. And And this morning, Natalie, I
• 25:31
  Speaker 2: understand you're talking to some young people who have memories
• 25:35
  Speaker 2: of that day. Yeah.
• 25:36
  Speaker 4: This Friday marks 25 years since the September 11th attacks.
• 25:40
  Speaker 4: And I ask anyone often over a certain age about
• 25:44
  Speaker 4: that day. And I typically watch them get this faraway
• 25:48
  Speaker 4: look in their eyes and say, almost across the board,
• 25:52
  Speaker 4: I remember that day like it was yesterday. And we
• 25:55
  Speaker 4: often hear stories about the people who ran into the rubble,
• 25:59
  Speaker 4: the people who escaped. But what about the youngest kids
• 26:02
  Speaker 4: who were maybe in classrooms at the time? That's where
• 26:05
  Speaker 4: we meet Will Feehan, a musician whose grandfather was first
• 26:09
  Speaker 4: deputy FDNY commissioner William Feehan, who died during the collapse.
• 26:15
  Speaker 4: Will says it felt as though he got picked up
• 26:17
  Speaker 4: from school that day as soon as he was dropped off.
• 26:21
  Speaker 6: You know, I was five, so I consider it my
• 26:23
  Speaker 6: first memory, like at least my first full day that
• 26:26
  Speaker 6: I remember. To speak on the feelings, you know, There's
• 26:29
  Speaker 6: an ignorance of a little child where it's like commotion
• 26:31
  Speaker 6: is exciting and you don't know what's happening. And I'm five,
• 26:35
  Speaker 6: I'm getting picked up in a police car and I'm like, oh,
• 26:37
  Speaker 6: you know, the cop is being awesome with me, giving
• 26:40
  Speaker 6: me his police ID card and stuff. You know, so
• 26:42
  Speaker 6: people wanted to make sure my emotions were high and
• 26:45
  Speaker 6: I wasn't feeling it until the end of the day.
• 26:48
  Speaker 6: So I'm playing with my cousins out on the street.
• 26:50
  Speaker 6: And then finally we go inside and it's, you know,
• 26:53
  Speaker 6: the family, you can feel it. You can feel the trauma.
• 26:56
  Speaker 6: You can feel the kind of despair. So I remember
• 26:58
  Speaker 6: all that.
• 26:59
  Speaker 4: So these are sort of the first memories of a
• 27:02
  Speaker 4: young child who's sort of realizing that this day is
• 27:05
  Speaker 4: way more serious than it started out. Taking a police escort,
• 27:10
  Speaker 4: Will told me, all the way from his school in
• 27:13
  Speaker 4: New Jersey to New York City, where his grandfather lived
• 27:16
  Speaker 4: at the time. And even with no direct connection, the
• 27:20
  Speaker 4: day has impacted Cam, who's in her 30s now, a
• 27:23
  Speaker 4: native New Yorker, who says if nothing else, If nothing else,
• 27:28
  Speaker 4: first responders and those who serve our country deserve more
• 27:31
  Speaker 4: respect than they've been given.
• 27:34
  Speaker 5: I mean, I was six years old when 9-11 happened.
• 27:36
  Speaker 5: It was a really scary day. And I just think
• 27:38
  Speaker 5: that it's important that we do honor it, that we
• 27:40
  Speaker 5: commemorate it, that I think that it's not a day off. Like,
• 27:42
  Speaker 5: I think it's also weird in America. The whole like
• 27:44
  Speaker 5: Memorial Day thing is like not really a memorial. Like
• 27:47
  Speaker 5: there are some people do it, but it's also, oh,
• 27:49
  Speaker 5: what are we barbecuing that day? And it's like, I'm Israeli.
• 27:51
  Speaker 5: So for me, it's like Memorial Day is a heavy
• 27:53
  Speaker 5: day in Israel. So I just think that like here,
• 27:55
  Speaker 5: we need to treat 9-11 with respect. We need to
• 27:57
  Speaker 5: show the world that we also don't forget what happened here.
• 28:00
  Speaker 5: And here's how we're moving forward. And here's how we're
• 28:02
  Speaker 5: trying to make the city feel safer for those that
• 28:04
  Speaker 5: love New York City.
• 28:05
  Speaker 4: How do you feel listening to that?
• 28:07
  Speaker 2: That was great. No, I was nodding my head as
• 28:10
  Speaker 2: I was listening to it. Yeah, absolutely. She's unbelievably correct.
• 28:14
  Speaker 1: Well, you know, they have the solemn occasion in Israel.
• 28:17
  Speaker 1: Followed immediately by the celebration of the Independence Day. So
• 28:22
  Speaker 1: they go from complete depression to complete exhilaration based on
• 28:29
  Speaker 1: the independence of Israel and Ben-Gurion leading them as an
• 28:34
  Speaker 1: initial country.
• 28:35
  Speaker 3: Right.
• 28:37
  Speaker 2: We're going to turn back to 9-11.
• 28:38
  Speaker 4: But as Will and Will sees the memory of that
• 28:42
  Speaker 4: day fade for many generations who weren't born yet. And
• 28:46
  Speaker 4: we'll get to that later this week when it comes
• 28:47
  Speaker 4: to the education and what we're doing about that. Even
• 28:50
  Speaker 4: those who were people around my age, people around his age.
• 28:54
  Speaker 4: But he has a different connection to this day because
• 28:57
  Speaker 4: of his grandpa.
• 28:59
  Speaker 6: Even even my closest friends that are New Yorkers, New Jersey,
• 29:02
  Speaker 6: and even were in Manhattan at the time, don't. think
• 29:06
  Speaker 6: about it ever, you know, unless it's brought up. For us, it's,
• 29:09
  Speaker 6: I'm not going to say 25 years later, I think
• 29:11
  Speaker 6: of it every single day. I think of him every
• 29:12
  Speaker 6: single day, but I don't think of it every day.
• 29:14
  Speaker 6: But absolutely, it's an identifier in our family.
• 29:18
  Speaker 1: Absolutely.
• 29:18
  Speaker 6: Because it comes with immense pride. You know, he absolutely
• 29:21
  Speaker 6: would have wanted to be there. There's no, it was
• 29:23
  Speaker 6: the greatest fire, technically, in the city's history. He wouldn't
• 29:27
  Speaker 6: have missed that for anything. If he was retired, he
• 29:29
  Speaker 6: would have went down there. Like, that's the kind of
• 29:31
  Speaker 6: guy he was.
• 29:32
  Speaker 4: And that's, as I talk to people, and throughout this
• 29:34
  Speaker 4: whole week, you'll see that People who were there, survivors,
• 29:38
  Speaker 4: people who were first responders. just like the first deputy commissioner,
• 29:44
  Speaker 4: people say there was nowhere else to be that day
• 29:47
  Speaker 4: but down at the towers, but down responding. So it's
• 29:52
  Speaker 4: really interesting to see even this guy who was a
• 29:56
  Speaker 4: kid at the time, he.
• 29:59
  Speaker 1: Just.
• 30:00
  Speaker 4: And he's just so proud, even though his grandfather died.
• 30:03
  Speaker 4: He's just so proud of what has what that legacy
• 30:07
  Speaker 4: was left. And so Will's family is actually very involved
• 30:11
  Speaker 4: in keeping the memory alive because his mother, Beth and
• 30:13
  Speaker 4: Anne McCartan, they work together on a podcast called Aftermath
• 30:17
  Speaker 4: 9-11 Stories of Hope and Resilience.
• 30:19
  Speaker 2: And that's sort of how we found a lot of
• 30:21
  Speaker 2: these people. But it airs on our station.
• 30:24
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 30:24
  Speaker 4: So it's it's been great to sort of meet these
• 30:28
  Speaker 4: people and hear their stories in a different light.
• 30:30
  Speaker 2: I had a long conversation with her. She she is amazing.
• 30:34
  Speaker 2: And the podcast is absolutely amazing as well. What strikes
• 30:38
  Speaker 2: me about all of the people you talk to? And
• 30:41
  Speaker 2: I'm sure it's more than when we just heard. is
• 30:44
  Speaker 2: they have memories. You know, I can't remember anything when
• 30:47
  Speaker 2: I was six or even eight. I have no memories
• 30:51
  Speaker 2: of that. But these memories because of that day are vivid.
• 30:55
  Speaker 2: That's amazing.
• 30:56
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 30:57
  Speaker 4: Even mine is very vivid. And I wasn't that old yet.
• 31:00
  Speaker 4: Everybody's always shocked when I say that. But I remember
• 31:03
  Speaker 4: that day.
• 31:04
  Speaker 3: Wow. Yeah.
• 31:06
  Speaker 1: I wish more younger people would have those memories. But
• 31:09
  Speaker 1: we look forward to the rest of this week. and
• 31:11
  Speaker 1: your interviews each and every morning in terms of the
• 31:15
  Speaker 1: importance and the commemoration of 9-11 on Friday.
• 31:18
  Speaker 2: That was wonderful. It was really good. Natalie Migliore is
• 31:21
  Speaker 2: going to be back tomorrow morning, as Curtis just said,
• 31:23
  Speaker 2: at 7.50.
