- 0:19Speaker 1: Mom Donnie, Mayor elect Mom Donnie, with Donald Trump, well
- 0:23Speaker 1: with Epstein.
- 0:24Speaker 3: We'll get to all of that coming up. It's hard
- 0:26Speaker 3: to believe Thanksgiving is next week, a week from tomorrow.
- 0:31Speaker 3: It's Thanksgiving. Unbelievable because you walk down the hall. You
- 0:34Speaker 3: can tell because there's a Thanksgiving buffet down there by
- 0:37Speaker 3: Elvis Durant Studio, by Jim Kurr Studio, there's a whole
- 0:41Speaker 3: Christmas buffet and we have to It's tons and tons.
- 0:46Speaker 3: It goes on for miles these buffets, and everybody's eating
- 0:50Speaker 3: like crazy because we have to finish this be for
- 0:53Speaker 3: today's lunch buffet, which begins in the two hours. That's all.
- 0:59Speaker 3: And then then we do this all day long with
- 1:01Speaker 3: these buffets in front of every studio up and down
- 1:03Speaker 3: the hall. It's all bufface. And then we do features
- 1:05Speaker 3: on why an obesity problem. So we got a lot
- 1:10Speaker 3: to get to. Let's start with the great news Mayor
- 1:13Speaker 3: elect Mom Donnie. You know you're gonna have to get
- 1:17Speaker 3: used to saying mayor Mom Donnie. But he's agreed to
- 1:22Speaker 3: and Jessica Tish's agreed to stay. She will be the
- 1:25Speaker 3: police commissioner under Mom Donnie. That's reassuring to a lot
- 1:29Speaker 3: of people. They've had a series of meetings. They had
- 1:33Speaker 3: phone calls over the weekend, which is a good sign.
- 1:37Speaker 3: If you have all these meetings in person and then
- 1:39Speaker 3: it turns into phone calls, it means you've done the
- 1:41Speaker 3: hard stuff. You got that out of the way, and
- 1:43Speaker 3: the phone calls he usually just follow up. So she
- 1:46Speaker 3: will stay on as the police commissioner. Now she made
- 1:50Speaker 3: some agreements with him. She's not gonna just stay on,
- 1:55Speaker 3: you know, good faith. They're gonna have to. He's gonna
- 1:56Speaker 3: have to actually agree to stuff. So he's agreed to
- 1:59Speaker 3: basically leave her alone. This is a key thing. He's
- 2:01Speaker 3: got these crazy programs with his social workers taken over
- 2:06Speaker 3: instead of police. They've made an agreement that the police
- 2:09Speaker 3: department will stay the police department. She will run that.
- 2:14Speaker 3: Whatever silly stuff he wants to do with the social workers,
- 2:17Speaker 3: that'll be separate. It'll be a department of community safety
- 2:21Speaker 3: that he will run. They will focus with the social
- 2:24Speaker 3: workers on the homeless and mentally ill. They'll just deal
- 2:29Speaker 3: with that. They'll leave the police department alone. The police
- 2:31Speaker 3: department will deal with actual crime. That's one agreement they've made.
- 2:35Speaker 3: I don't know all the others, but they've agreed on
- 2:37Speaker 3: a lot of stuff. So she will stay. That's very important.
- 2:42Speaker 3: It's very very good news. Jessica Tish will stay on. Now,
- 2:47Speaker 3: some people say, well, we don't know, it might just
- 2:49Speaker 3: be a couple of months. You might just stay and
- 2:52Speaker 3: then leaving three I don't think so's. You know, she's
- 2:56Speaker 3: not going to do that. She would either stay or leave.
- 2:58Speaker 3: If she's staying, it's because they greed on the right stuff.
- 3:01Speaker 3: She's got good, solid agreements with him. If she's staying,
- 3:03Speaker 3: it's going to be for a while. It'll be Remember,
- 3:07Speaker 3: police commissioners generally serve a very long time, you know.
- 3:11Speaker 3: Not everybody's Ray Kelly. He was the greatest police commissioner
- 3:15Speaker 3: in history. So that was like, I think, eighteen years.
- 3:17Speaker 3: But that he's Babe Ruth. That's not normal. But normally
- 3:20Speaker 3: a police commissioner, a good police commissioner stays a few years.
- 3:24Speaker 3: It's not one year, it's a number of years, four years,
- 3:27Speaker 3: three years, four years, five years, something like that. It
- 3:30Speaker 3: was only under Eric Adams we had the police commissioner
- 3:33Speaker 3: of the month. How many do we have under Adams?
- 3:36Speaker 3: I mean, I don't think those Jeopardy guys could even
- 3:38Speaker 3: get that name. All the Eric Adams police commissioners. It's
- 3:41Speaker 3: not easy. Let me think he shot suwell m Who
- 3:46Speaker 3: is the McDermott Dermot Dermott Shay. That's another one. O'Neill.
- 3:52Speaker 3: What was O'Neill's first name, James O'Neill. That's three. Oh,
- 3:58Speaker 3: Eddie Caban that's four. Who is the guy that was
- 4:02Speaker 3: there briefly? Very nice guy was his name? Donnelly? He
- 4:05Speaker 3: was just there temporarily. He came in for a few months,
- 4:07Speaker 3: but a very good guy. Donnelle. That's five. And Jessica Tish.
- 4:12Speaker 3: That's six, six police commissioners in four years. It's embarrassing,
- 4:17Speaker 3: it's awful. So I think if she's agreed to stay,
- 4:20Speaker 3: it's gonna be for a while. Now. That's the most
- 4:23Speaker 3: important thing about mom. Donnie whatever nonsense, crazy stuff he
- 4:27Speaker 3: wants to do, find but as long as the streets
- 4:29Speaker 3: are safe, that kind of fixes everything. Safe streets you
- 4:34Speaker 3: pretty much help every situation. If the streets are safe.
- 4:38Speaker 3: Businesses flourish if the streets are safe, Tourists keep coming here.
- 4:43Speaker 3: That's very important for our economy. So he's Jessica Tish
- 4:47Speaker 3: will stay. That's important. Outside of that, he's gonna have
- 4:52Speaker 3: all these all the crazy people he's appointed, they're all
- 4:54Speaker 3: from the Deblasio administration, the same exact deputy mayors, first
- 4:58Speaker 3: deputy mayor. They're all from the Blasio administration. So you'll
- 5:01Speaker 3: basically get a repeat of that. It wasn't bad, and
- 5:08Speaker 3: we got through it. We got through eight years of that.
- 5:10Speaker 3: We'll get through four years of Mom Donnie. It might
- 5:12Speaker 3: only be one year. You know, you're going to get
- 5:14Speaker 3: a new governor, probably a year from now, and that
- 5:16Speaker 3: governor can remove the mayor. They have the power to
- 5:19Speaker 3: remove the mayor. It's happened before FDR removed Jimmy Walker
- 5:23Speaker 3: the mayor. So that's good news. Now. The only bad
- 5:29Speaker 3: part of this Tish thing, Mam Donnie does not want
- 5:34Speaker 3: Ice coming in here arresting illegals, and many of these
- 5:36Speaker 3: illegals are the worst criminals, So you want him arrested
- 5:40Speaker 3: and taken out here. Jessica Tish may have agreed with
- 5:43Speaker 3: him not to cooperate with Ice. That's I don't know,
- 5:46Speaker 3: but that's the only problem. Hocal apparently is recruited a
- 5:53Speaker 3: number of big Wall Street exec top Wall Street names,
- 5:56Speaker 3: big business guys, people that know Trump, and she's put
- 5:59Speaker 3: the this group. She wants them to go to Donald
- 6:02Speaker 3: Trump and convince him to not send the National Guardian
- 6:07Speaker 3: to protect people. Now, if Jessica Tish is here and
- 6:09Speaker 3: doing a good job, there'd be no reason to send
- 6:11Speaker 3: the National Guardian. But if there is a problem, of
- 6:14Speaker 3: course you'd want him to send the National guard Why
- 6:16Speaker 3: would you turn away anything that's going to give you
- 6:18Speaker 3: a public safety Why would you turn away any law enforcement,
- 6:21Speaker 3: public safety anything. And also bear in mind, you remember
- 6:25Speaker 3: a few years ago when there was the crime was
- 6:27Speaker 3: getting out of control. What did Kathy Hokeel do. Nobody
- 6:30Speaker 3: remembers this. She sent the National guard in. Remember she
- 6:33Speaker 3: put him in all the subways. So she sent the
- 6:36Speaker 3: National Guarden. She thought it was a good thing to do.
- 6:38Speaker 3: But that's the hypocrisy. Democrats are famous for President Trump
- 6:43Speaker 3: meeting with the Saudi Prince yesterday. Saudi leaders, a lot
- 6:47Speaker 3: of people didn't like this. You know, you don't want
- 6:53Speaker 3: to have two cozy relationship between a president and the Saudis,
- 6:56Speaker 3: and it looked like reporters were asking about the Trump
- 7:00Speaker 3: organization has all kinds of business interests in Saudi Arabia.
- 7:03Speaker 3: They're building hotels and apartments and this looks pretty sleazy,
- 7:07Speaker 3: but he pointed out they've been doing that anyway, long
- 7:10Speaker 3: before he was president. They were building over there, and
- 7:13Speaker 3: they're building all over the world. In fact, the amount
- 7:15Speaker 3: of building they're doing in Saudi Arabia is a lot
- 7:17Speaker 3: less than they're doing in Europe or anywhere else. Hey,
- 7:20Speaker 3: the greatest moment was Trump and this ABC reporter. You know,
- 7:25Speaker 3: it's funny. ABC News. ABC the network attacks Trump twenty
- 7:30Speaker 3: four to seven for ten years. They call them every
- 7:32Speaker 3: name in the world. They insult them with everything they've
- 7:35Speaker 3: insult them with. All they do is attack and insult
- 7:38Speaker 3: Donald Trump twenty four to seven for ten years without
- 7:41Speaker 3: it never stops. If he insults them once, it's an
- 7:45Speaker 3: international incident all of a sudden, ABC News is the
- 7:48Speaker 3: worst thing that's ever happened. But this is yesterday. They
- 7:50Speaker 3: got the Saudi crown prints. They're in the Oval Office.
- 7:53Speaker 3: They've made some agreements to help the US, to help
- 7:56Speaker 3: our businesses, and a lot of big business leaders have
- 8:00Speaker 3: flown in, Tim Cook of Apple, all these big tech
- 8:03Speaker 3: guys everything. They're all there. Elon Musk came back to
- 8:05Speaker 3: the White House for this. It's very important, and they're
- 8:10Speaker 3: trying to talk about what they're going to do together
- 8:13Speaker 3: and hopefully they make some kind of an agreement over
- 8:15Speaker 3: protecting Israel and all of that. So it's all good stuff.
- 8:19Speaker 3: But the ABC reporter can't stop. She's asking about remember
- 8:23Speaker 3: the guy that was killed, Koshogi, and she's asking about Epstein.
- 8:27Speaker 3: This is in the middle of this positive thing. So
- 8:29Speaker 3: Trump gets mad, but this is great. He really tells
- 8:32Speaker 3: her off. I love listening to this. Take a listen
- 8:36Speaker 3: that will fight it.
- 8:37Speaker 2: Out for Congress to release the Epstein files. Why not
- 8:39Speaker 2: just do it now? Now. It's not the question that
- 8:43Speaker 2: I mind. It's your attitude. I think you are a
- 8:46Speaker 2: terrible reporter. It's the way you ask these questions. You
- 8:50Speaker 2: start off with a man who's highly respected asking him
- 8:53Speaker 2: a horrible, insubordinate and just a terrible question. And you
- 9:00Speaker 2: could even ask that same exact question nicely. You're all psyched.
- 9:04Speaker 2: Somebody psyches you over at ABC. You're gonna psych it.
- 9:10Speaker 2: You're a terrible person and a terrible reporter. As far
- 9:14Speaker 2: as the Epstein Files is, I have nothing to do
- 9:17Speaker 2: with Jeffrey Epstein. I threw him out of my club
- 9:19Speaker 2: many years ago because I thought he was a sick pervert.
- 9:23Speaker 2: But I guess that would turn out to be right.
- 9:25Speaker 2: But you know who does have? Bill Clinton? Larry Summers,
- 9:29Speaker 2: who ran Harvard, was with him every single night, every
- 9:32Speaker 2: single weekend. They lived together. They went to his island
- 9:35Speaker 2: many times. I never did Andrew Weissman here. All these
- 9:41Speaker 2: guys were friends of his. You don't even talk about
- 9:43Speaker 2: those people. You just keep going on the Epstein files.
- 9:47Speaker 2: And what the Epstein is is a Democrat hoax to
- 9:50Speaker 2: try and get me not to be able to talk
- 9:53Speaker 2: about the twenty one trillion dollars that I talked about today.
- 9:56Speaker 2: It's a hoax. Now. I just got a little report
- 9:59Speaker 2: and I put it in my pocket. Of all the
- 10:01Speaker 2: money that he's given to Democrats, he gave me none, zero,
- 10:06Speaker 2: no money to me, but he gave money to democrats.
- 10:10Speaker 2: And people are wise to your hoax. And ABC's your company,
- 10:14Speaker 2: your crappy company is one of the perpetrators. And I'll
- 10:18Speaker 2: tell you something. I'll tell you something. I think the
- 10:21Speaker 2: license should be taken away from ABC because your news
- 10:25Speaker 2: is so fake and is so wrong, and we have
- 10:29Speaker 2: a great commissioner, the chairman, who should look at that,
- 10:32Speaker 2: because I think when you come in and when you're
- 10:35Speaker 2: ninety seven percent negative to Trump and then Trump wins
- 10:39Speaker 2: the election in a landslide, that means obviously your news
- 10:42Speaker 2: is not credible and you're not credible as a reporter.
- 10:45Speaker 2: So I've answered your question. You should go and look
- 10:48Speaker 2: at the Democrats who received money from Epstein, who spent
- 10:52Speaker 2: their time. Larry Summers was with them all the time,
- 10:57Speaker 2: that creep of the one guy was with him all
- 11:02Speaker 2: the time. What's his name? Read Hoffman. I don't know
- 11:06Speaker 2: read Hoffman, but I know he spends a lot of
- 11:08Speaker 2: money on the radical left. Read Hoffman, in my opinion,
- 11:11Speaker 2: should be under investigation. He's a sleevesbag and those are
- 11:16Speaker 2: the people, but they don't get any press, they don't
- 11:18Speaker 2: get any news, And you're not after the radical left
- 11:21Speaker 2: because you're a radical left network. But I think the
- 11:23Speaker 2: way you ask a question, with the anger and the
- 11:26Speaker 2: meanness is terrible. You ought to go back and learn
- 11:29Speaker 2: how to be a reporter.
- 11:30Speaker 3: No more so that's pretty good. But let's break that down. Now,
- 11:33Speaker 3: he threatens the licenses of ABC. You're not supposed to
- 11:36Speaker 3: do that. But if they are broadcasting false information and
- 11:41Speaker 3: distorting the news, and they have been caught doing that,
- 11:43Speaker 3: remember the George Stephanoppolis false accusations, and the ABC had
- 11:47Speaker 3: to pay Trump fifteen million quietly and not so quietly
- 11:51Speaker 3: to settle it. So you're not supposed to threaten their license,
- 11:53Speaker 3: but if they are distorting the news, you are supposed
- 11:56Speaker 3: to take the license away. And let's read. Hofmann is
- 12:00Speaker 3: an interesting guy, this guy Reid Hoffman, this techzillionaire. He
- 12:04Speaker 3: funds a lot of stuff. He funded the Egen Carroll
- 12:06Speaker 3: lawsuit against Trump, which will nobody believes that most people
- 12:12Speaker 3: think is just total hoax, But he funded that. God
- 12:15Speaker 3: are all the best lawyers. But it's a good question.
- 12:20Speaker 3: He brings up if he has nothing to do with
- 12:22Speaker 3: Epstein for twenty years, he hasn't the twenty one years,
- 12:25Speaker 3: he has nothing to do with Epstein, no kindection. A
- 12:27Speaker 3: million years ago, two thousand and four, he found out
- 12:30Speaker 3: about Epstein and the young girls threw him out of
- 12:33Speaker 3: mar A Lago, banned him from the club. There's a
- 12:35Speaker 3: million witnesses to this, people that work there, people that
- 12:38Speaker 3: were members there, So everybody knew about it back then.
- 12:41Speaker 3: I knew about it because he's one of the people
- 12:43Speaker 3: that warned me years ago, twenty years ago, stay the
- 12:46Speaker 3: hell away from Epstein, bad guy. Except for twenty one
- 12:49Speaker 3: years he stayed away from him while Democrats got closer
- 12:52Speaker 3: and closer and closer to Epstein. And he's right, why
- 12:55Speaker 3: aren't they, Why aren't they outside of Bill Clinton's house
- 12:57Speaker 3: demanding some answers? Or Larry Summer? He was the former
- 13:01Speaker 3: Treasury secretary to Obama Clinton, He was an advisor, an
- 13:08Speaker 3: economic advisor to Joe Biden during this recent presidency, and
- 13:13Speaker 3: president of Harvard. Now, why aren't they? Why aren't they
- 13:15Speaker 3: bothering Larry Summers making him explain this? Now, Summers put
- 13:18Speaker 3: out statements saying he's ashamed of his close relationship with Epstein,
- 13:23Speaker 3: and apparently Summer's cheating on his wife like crazy and
- 13:27Speaker 3: using Epstein as his dating coach. You can see it
- 13:30Speaker 3: in the emails and texts. He's now resigned from every
- 13:34Speaker 3: board he's on, He's resigned from everything, still works for Harvard.
- 13:37Speaker 3: But and it turns out that Epstein over these last
- 13:41Speaker 3: twenty years, has been a major Democratic donor. Hasn't given
- 13:45Speaker 3: a penny to Trump. But major Democratic donor, if they
- 13:48Speaker 3: hate this guy so much, why are they taking his money?
- 13:50Speaker 3: Why are they letting him from their campaigns? It's a
- 13:54Speaker 3: very good question, you know, when these files come out.
- 13:58Speaker 3: First of all, there's not that much in the files.
- 14:00Speaker 3: The Epstein files don't have all the juicy stuff in him.
- 14:03Speaker 3: The juicy stuff is in the texts and emails, and
- 14:06Speaker 3: those are coming from the Epstein estate. But Trump asked
- 14:11Speaker 3: some good questions, why why aren't they going after these people?
- 14:14Speaker 3: And this current Democratic congresswoman what's her name? Plasket? Stacey
- 14:18Speaker 3: Plaskett very close to Epstein, And while she's in the
- 14:22Speaker 3: hearings grilling Michael Cohen, she's texting back and forth with
- 14:28Speaker 3: Epstein during the hearings to get his advice on what
- 14:31Speaker 3: to say next and what So, how come reporters never
- 14:34Speaker 3: bother her? Somebody did ask the Stacey Plasket Well, oh no,
- 14:43Speaker 3: it was Caitlin Collins. She was on CNN. So she
- 14:45Speaker 3: said to Hakim Jeffries, how come you're not mad at
- 14:48Speaker 3: Stacey Plaskett for being so close to Epstein? They're texting
- 14:52Speaker 3: back and forth during the hearings on Trump, and Epstein says, well,
- 14:57Speaker 3: she has not violated any law. Okay, it's not illegal,
- 15:03Speaker 3: but it's certainly inappropriate. It's not illegal to go to
- 15:05Speaker 3: Epstein's house and hang out with him, but it's totally inappropriate.
- 15:10Speaker 3: You know, George Stephanoppolis having dinner with Epstein at his house,
- 15:13Speaker 3: Katie Couric having dinner with Epstein at his house. Why
- 15:17Speaker 3: aren't more people asking them about all this? Trump has
- 15:19Speaker 3: nothing to do with Epstein. I love Good Day in
- 15:22Speaker 3: New York. It's a great show. It's on Channel five
- 15:24Speaker 3: every morning. And they got this political guy that does
- 15:28Speaker 3: the political pieces. His name is Robert Moses. He's a
- 15:30Speaker 3: cute guy. I like him, but he's the most slanted partisan.
- 15:35Speaker 3: So when Trump said he had nothing to do with Epstein,
- 15:37Speaker 3: I have.
- 15:38Speaker 2: Nothing to do with Jeffrey Epstein. I threw him out
- 15:40Speaker 2: of my club many years ago because I thought he
- 15:42Speaker 2: was a sick pervert. But I guess I would turn
- 15:45Speaker 2: out to be right.
- 15:46Speaker 3: So when Robert Moses does the story with this clip,
- 15:48Speaker 3: he actually said President Trump tried to claim that he
- 15:52Speaker 3: had nothing to do with Epstein about biased language. He
- 15:55Speaker 3: tried to claim he did. This is all well known
- 16:00Speaker 3: to people. Again, there are a million witnesses to be
- 16:03Speaker 3: They never tell you this part of it. He tried
- 16:06Speaker 3: to claim. You could easily find a dozen witnesses right
- 16:12Speaker 3: now that know about how this did happen twenty one
- 16:14Speaker 3: years ago. Threw him the hell out of mar Alago.
- 16:17Speaker 3: Never spoke to him again anyway. We'll get back to Epstein,
- 16:20Speaker 3: We'll get back to Mom, Donnie. Lots more to get to.
- 16:23Speaker 3: We'll get to Hochel and more coming up. We'll take
- 16:27Speaker 3: some calls next. Eight hundred three two one zero seven
- 16:30Speaker 3: ten is the number. Eight hundred three two one zero
- 16:34Speaker 3: seven ten
