  Speaker 1: You just heard the news.
• 0:02
  Speaker 2: Now you'll find out what it all means. It's Mark
• 0:06
  Speaker 2: Simone on 710WOR.
• 0:07
  Speaker 3: Well, hey, we've got a lot to get to. We'll
• 0:15
  Speaker 3: get those crazy New York Yankees. I think that's it
• 0:17
  Speaker 3: for them. We'll get to Cornell. We'll get to crazy
• 0:20
  Speaker 3: Letitia James.
• 0:22
  Speaker 2: We'll get to AI, the city council. Holding hearings. Very
• 0:28
  Speaker 2: important hearings. Looking to make money off these AI companies.
• 0:31
  Speaker 2: We'll get to, hey, Fox News, 30th anniversary. Tomorrow. We'll
• 0:37
  Speaker 2: get to Iran and we'll get to Jim Baker. Remember
• 0:43
  Speaker 2: Jim Baker? He died. The breaking news is he was
• 0:47
  Speaker 2: still alive. Did you know that? I didn't know that.
• 0:50
  Speaker 2: We'll get to, well, let's do it right now. This
• 0:52
  Speaker 2: Chuck Schumer is finished. Chuck Schumer is dead. Just a
• 0:57
  Speaker 2: joke in the Democratic Party. Chuck Schumer is a tired
• 1:01
  Speaker 2: old fossil. He's an old dinosaur. He's obviously Republicans have
• 1:07
  Speaker 2: no use for him, but Democrats want him gone. All
• 1:11
  Speaker 2: the Democrats want him gone. He's just going to become
• 1:13
  Speaker 2: a punching bag now. He'll finish out his term. He
• 1:16
  Speaker 2: can't run for reelection. Who knows? He might even step
• 1:19
  Speaker 2: down early. He's just going to be a punching bag.
• 1:21
  Speaker 2: Here's Ro Khanna. This is like the hot Democrat now.
• 1:25
  Speaker 2: He's like the Indian Adam Schiff. Remember, Adam Schiff and
• 1:28
  Speaker 2: Ro Khanna are on every Sunday show, every week. These
• 1:32
  Speaker 2: are the two hot shots in that they're the biggest liars.
• 1:36
  Speaker 2: They're the biggest attackers of Trump. They're booked on every
• 1:39
  Speaker 2: Sunday show. Shows you how illegitimate these Sunday shows are.
• 1:43
  Speaker 2: You should have a wide range of opinions, a wide
• 1:46
  Speaker 2: range of guests, a wide range of Democrats. But every Sunday,
• 1:50
  Speaker 2: each show, they have these two on to bash Trump.
• 1:52
  Speaker 2: But And it's fine. Bashing Trump is what you're supposed
• 1:56
  Speaker 2: to do if you're a Democrat. But listen to this.
• 1:59
  Speaker 2: This is Ro Khanna, leading Democratic spokesman. Listen to the
• 2:03
  Speaker 2: way he talks about Chuck Schumer. Well, let's try it again.
• 2:07
  Speaker 2: Let's get the next gen on. Listen to the way
• 2:09
  Speaker 2: he talks about Chuck Schumer.
• 2:10
  Speaker 4: I'm a New Deal Democrat, not a donor class Democrat.
• 2:14
  Speaker 4: I'm a New Deal Democrat, not a corporate Democrat. I'm
• 2:22
  Speaker 4: a New Deal Democrat, not a Chuck Schumer Democrat.
• 2:26
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I don't know why they cut it, but the
• 2:28
  Speaker 2: whole crowd cheers there. Yeah, so that's Schumer, a donor Democrat,
• 2:34
  Speaker 2: a corporate Democrat. The reason Schumer stayed in so long
• 2:38
  Speaker 2: is he's the king of donor service. Every major donor
• 2:42
  Speaker 2: has his cell number. I'm talking about Democrats and Republicans,
• 2:47
  Speaker 2: and they always make sure he never has much of
• 2:49
  Speaker 2: an opponent. They like to keep him in office, and
• 2:52
  Speaker 2: If you ask them, Republicans, why do you keep backing Schumer?
• 2:56
  Speaker 2: And they'll tell you, I can wake this guy up
• 2:58
  Speaker 2: at 3 in the morning. He'll do anything I want.
• 3:00
  Speaker 2: So Democrats want him gone. President Trump getting a lot
• 3:05
  Speaker 2: of flack because he shot off his mouth. You know,
• 3:07
  Speaker 2: he does these rallies for like three hours. Three hours.
• 3:11
  Speaker 2: And he says a million things, some of them brilliant,
• 3:13
  Speaker 2: some of them funny, some of them crazy. And every
• 3:17
  Speaker 2: one out of 200 times, he goes way over the line.
• 3:20
  Speaker 2: And so he's joking around about Iran, threatening to take
• 3:24
  Speaker 2: out his city. And he's joking, oh, yeah, we'll take
• 3:26
  Speaker 2: out L.A. or San Diego. It's a joke. It's a
• 3:28
  Speaker 2: terrible joke. And you've got to remember, he's Howard Stern.
• 3:33
  Speaker 2: It's Howard Stern. You know, when you listen to Howard Stern,
• 3:36
  Speaker 2: all those years, brilliant, funny. What a great show. But
• 3:39
  Speaker 2: then every so often, he goes so far over the line,
• 3:42
  Speaker 2: you'd cringe. You'd go, oh, God, why did he have
• 3:44
  Speaker 2: to say that? But that's what happened. So he said that.
• 3:47
  Speaker 2: Let him take out Los Angeles. Let him take out
• 3:49
  Speaker 2: San Diego. This is a very small.
• 3:52
  Speaker 3: Price to pay, and it's going to be over very soon.
• 3:56
  Speaker 2: It's essentially almost over with. Yeah, all right. Stupid joke.
• 3:59
  Speaker 2: You're not supposed to make a joke like that. But, again,
• 4:02
  Speaker 2: he's Howard Stern. It's a small price to pay. Now, yeah,
• 4:06
  Speaker 2: everybody yelling about oil prices, gas prices. Let me just check.
• 4:10
  Speaker 2: Hang on. Hang on. Wait one second. Oh, if you're
• 4:14
  Speaker 2: a Democrat, cover your ears for a minute. Yeah, oil
• 4:18
  Speaker 2: is still dropping. dropping a lot, down to 87. It's
• 4:22
  Speaker 2: down about $ 15 a barrel in the last couple weeks.
• 4:25
  Speaker 2: It's down to 87. It went above 100 briefly, very briefly.
• 4:32
  Speaker 2: This is nowhere near Joe Biden oil prices, and this
• 4:35
  Speaker 2: is nowhere near Barack Obama oil prices. It's much, much lower.
• 4:39
  Speaker 2: But 87 is pretty good. Even Brent Crude is under
• 4:41
  Speaker 2: 100 now. So that's a good sign. Now, one of
• 4:46
  Speaker 2: the reasons oil prices are up, a lot of it
• 4:48
  Speaker 2: is diesel fuel. diesel fuel. And that has nothing to
• 4:52
  Speaker 2: do with the Iran war. The diesel fuel price increase
• 4:55
  Speaker 2: is because Russia has been unable to produce most of
• 5:00
  Speaker 2: the diesel fuel they usually produce. That's a lot of
• 5:02
  Speaker 2: the world market. When the reason is Ukraine has been
• 5:06
  Speaker 2: bombing the hell out of Russia and specifically hitting their refineries.
• 5:11
  Speaker 2: Ukraine now saying they've taken out half of Russia's refineries.
• 5:16
  Speaker 2: So that's the oil. They've cut the oil output of
• 5:20
  Speaker 2: Russia in half. And a lot of that's diesel oil.
• 5:22
  Speaker 2: That's driven the price up. President Trump.
• 5:25
  Speaker 4: For many years, farm vehicles, construction equipment and other off-road
• 5:30
  Speaker 4: vehicles have used what is known.
• 5:32
  Speaker 2: As red dye diesel. Do you know what that is?
• 5:36
  Speaker 3: I don't know what the hell it is, but whatever
• 5:38
  Speaker 3: it is, it's supposed to be very good.
• 5:40
  Speaker 2: Yeah, well, it's diesel fuel is used also in all
• 5:43
  Speaker 2: the trucks. And the problem is everything in every store
• 5:47
  Speaker 2: is delivered by a truck. So if the fuel price
• 5:49
  Speaker 2: goes up, the price of the goods goes up. But
• 5:54
  Speaker 2: as I say, everything is coming down now and looking better.
• 5:58
  Speaker 2: 87 is pretty low. Remember, it was like 107 a
• 6:01
  Speaker 2: couple of weeks ago. So 87 is pretty low. The president, again,
• 6:06
  Speaker 2: every day flying to another city, doing another rally. Today's Baltimore.
• 6:11
  Speaker 2: Every day, he leaves the White House in the afternoon,
• 6:13
  Speaker 2: flies to another city, does a rally, and the rally's
• 6:16
  Speaker 2: not 20 minutes for him. It's three hours. You know,
• 6:19
  Speaker 2: he gets all upset because of Fox News. Why aren't
• 6:22
  Speaker 2: they covering my rallies? Why isn't this network covering? They're
• 6:25
  Speaker 2: three hours. You can't give up three hours of programming.
• 6:28
  Speaker 2: They do cover them, but they just take the highlights
• 6:30
  Speaker 2: and run them. So, yeah. Now, midterms, it looks pretty
• 6:36
  Speaker 2: good for the Republicans. Oh, I know, you keep hearing, oh,
• 6:39
  Speaker 2: look how far behind, they're way behind. They're not as
• 6:41
  Speaker 2: far behind as those polls make it out to be.
• 6:44
  Speaker 2: Most of the polls totally rigged, the public polls. The
• 6:47
  Speaker 2: wrong metrics, the wrong demos, deliberately. It's to suppress voter turnout. But,
• 6:53
  Speaker 2: and that's why Republicans always outperform the polls, because the
• 6:57
  Speaker 2: polls are rigged. President Trump running around, and this is
• 7:01
  Speaker 2: where he usually wins. when he's behind a couple of
• 7:06
  Speaker 2: weeks out, behind and has some momentum. And that's what
• 7:09
  Speaker 2: they got right now. So that's the best place to
• 7:11
  Speaker 2: be for Republicans. Be a little behind with momentum, you
• 7:15
  Speaker 2: surge at the end and you win. Democrats peaked too early,
• 7:20
  Speaker 2: big mistake, and that's not going to be good. And
• 7:24
  Speaker 2: the important number, if you want to look at any numbers,
• 7:28
  Speaker 2: in most of these states, the amount that the Republicans
• 7:31
  Speaker 2: are behind is less than the amount that the Republicans
• 7:36
  Speaker 2: usually outperform the polls. So they're actually doing pretty well.
• 7:40
  Speaker 2: And again, President Trump always pulls a rabbit out of
• 7:43
  Speaker 2: the hat in the last week of an election. Cornell University,
• 7:49
  Speaker 2: student protests all over the place. If you're on the campus,
• 7:51
  Speaker 2: students protesting like crazy. Justice for Jacob! Justice for Jacob! Now,
• 8:07
  Speaker 2: you might be wondering what they're chanting. Who the hell knows?
• 8:09
  Speaker 2: They just love to go outside and yell and scream,
• 8:12
  Speaker 2: which is perfect because you don't have to go to
• 8:14
  Speaker 2: class that way. Cornell students all upset.
• 8:17
  Speaker 1: Were you.
• 8:19
  Speaker 4: In the group chat?
• 8:21
  Speaker 1: Yeah, and none of you did.
• 8:25
  Speaker 2: Now, Letitia James has been named the special prosecutor, which
• 8:30
  Speaker 2: is absolutely ridiculous. She's not a prosecutor. She has never
• 8:34
  Speaker 2: prosecuted a criminal case in her life, has no experience
• 8:38
  Speaker 2: as a prosecutor, never prosecuted a criminal case. This is
• 8:42
  Speaker 2: not the one to start on. And then worse than that,
• 8:45
  Speaker 2: she's prejudged the case in writing publicly. She has declared
• 8:50
  Speaker 2: them guilty. You can't prejudge the case like that. It
• 8:54
  Speaker 2: doesn't sound good. It's going to be used against her.
• 9:00
  Speaker 2: And don't be surprised if they do get her removed. Now,
• 9:03
  Speaker 2: there's 28 days until the election. They'll do everything they
• 9:06
  Speaker 2: can to stall all of this till after the election,
• 9:08
  Speaker 2: because most likely Letitia James will get bounced off the
• 9:11
  Speaker 2: case for prejudging it. The lawyer for the Cornell students
• 9:16
  Speaker 2: already bringing this up.
• 9:17
  Speaker 1: These are not allegations that should be tried on video
• 9:24
  Speaker 1: on Instagram. These are very serious allegations. Attorney General James
• 9:31
  Speaker 1: made very public posted Facebook comments that seemingly have prejudged
• 9:40
  Speaker 1: or at least shown a bias towards the alleged victim
• 9:47
  Speaker 1: in this case.
• 9:48
  Speaker 2: Yeah. So how do you defend yourself if you're one
• 9:51
  Speaker 2: of these students? Now, the other thing is there's a
• 9:54
  Speaker 2: lot of misleading stuff. There's a lot of people like
• 9:56
  Speaker 2: this idiotic AOC who's been making these crazy publicizations statements
• 10:00
  Speaker 2: that she was lured to the fraternity house. They drugged her,
• 10:04
  Speaker 2: and none of this is true. She was not lured there.
• 10:07
  Speaker 2: She wanted to go there. Couldn't wait to go there.
• 10:10
  Speaker 2: She voluntarily took drugs. If you read her statement, the
• 10:14
  Speaker 2: victim statement, She says that she voluntarily took drugs. She
• 10:20
  Speaker 2: got herself really drunk before she went there. Ten drinks.
• 10:25
  Speaker 2: That's a lot of drinks for an 18-year-old. Ten drinks.
• 10:29
  Speaker 2: Went there, voluntarily took another drink, voluntarily took drugs. She
• 10:34
  Speaker 2: then admits that she voluntarily had sex with two guys there,
• 10:39
  Speaker 2: that she wanted to do that. She wanted to have
• 10:41
  Speaker 2: sex with both of them at the same time. One
• 10:44
  Speaker 2: of them I hate to get graphic here. One of
• 10:48
  Speaker 2: them wanted, well, he put the ketamine all over his erect,
• 10:56
  Speaker 2: you know what, and then had her lick it off.
• 11:02
  Speaker 2: She said she did this voluntarily. Now, this is not
• 11:07
  Speaker 2: going to sound great in the courtroom. This is her
• 11:08
  Speaker 2: statement that she gave. Now, she said it then, later
• 11:13
  Speaker 2: it got out of control. as the drugs made her
• 11:16
  Speaker 2: so woozy, and she said that other guys came in
• 11:20
  Speaker 2: and got out of hand. But there are really only
• 11:25
  Speaker 2: three guys that are being accused of rape here. The
• 11:29
  Speaker 2: rest aren't. The rest, it was consensual. It was voluntary.
• 11:35
  Speaker 2: Word got all over the campus about this. Now, the
• 11:38
  Speaker 2: other part is she didn't report this, and she decided
• 11:41
  Speaker 2: not to report it. And she waited a long time,
• 11:44
  Speaker 2: many weeks. And then later, later went to campus cops,
• 11:48
  Speaker 2: gave a long, long statement. And Cornell at the time
• 11:53
  Speaker 2: did do an investigation. I mean, you know, you probably
• 11:56
  Speaker 2: in a serious matter should bring in some real professional
• 12:00
  Speaker 2: law enforcement, you know, prosecutor, investigator. But they used faculty and,
• 12:05
  Speaker 2: you know, probably the Cornell attorney's And their investigation resulted
• 12:12
  Speaker 2: in disciplinary stuff. Two of the students were expelled. They
• 12:17
  Speaker 2: were kicked out of school. Two of them were suspended
• 12:20
  Speaker 2: for two semesters. And then now you read how some
• 12:24
  Speaker 2: of them didn't get a severe punishment, you know, but again,
• 12:28
  Speaker 2: some of them weren't accused of any actual rape by
• 12:31
  Speaker 2: her or anybody else. A couple of them did acknowledge
• 12:36
  Speaker 2: the sexual contact. And as she testified in her, report
• 12:40
  Speaker 2: to the police. It was voluntary. So this is going
• 12:43
  Speaker 2: to be a mess of a case, absolute mess of
• 12:46
  Speaker 2: a case. It's going to be a mess for Kathy Hochul.
• 12:50
  Speaker 2: She's going to have to explain why she appointed the
• 12:52
  Speaker 2: least qualified person on earth, Letitia James, because James has
• 12:56
  Speaker 2: a history of politicizing everything. She's got no experience at
• 13:01
  Speaker 2: all as a criminal prosecutor, none. And she's very, very,
• 13:07
  Speaker 2: very partisan. Why did she appoint her? Well, it could
• 13:11
  Speaker 2: be a couple of reasons. One, she needs her help
• 13:14
  Speaker 2: in the election, so she appointed Letitia James. Letitia James
• 13:18
  Speaker 2: has always been a big headline grabber. Big headline grabber.
• 13:22
  Speaker 2: This is the most high-profile case in the world right now.
• 13:25
  Speaker 2: She might have called Hochul and asked and begged, demanded
• 13:31
  Speaker 2: to be the prosecutor here. Now, remember, Letitia James is
• 13:34
  Speaker 2: also up for re-election. So she might, by the way,
• 13:37
  Speaker 2: vote for the Republican. You got to get rid of
• 13:39
  Speaker 2: this Letitia James. But Letitia James is up for reelection.
• 13:42
  Speaker 2: So this, she thinks, might help her in her election.
• 13:48
  Speaker 2: And it's going to be a mess. It's going to
• 13:50
  Speaker 2: be a mess. Now, not going to be good. This
• 13:52
  Speaker 2: is not going to work out well. Hey, you remember
• 13:55
  Speaker 2: that awful terrorist at Fort Hood? The guy was a
• 14:00
  Speaker 2: military guy. He was an Army officer. This is years ago.
• 14:04
  Speaker 2: He was an Army officer. And he became a terrorist.
• 14:09
  Speaker 2: He became a radical terrorist. And at Fort Hood, he
• 14:13
  Speaker 2: was on the base because he was an army officer.
• 14:15
  Speaker 2: At Fort Hood, he went nuts. A terrorist attack. His
• 14:20
  Speaker 2: name is Nadal Malik Hassan. He killed. He just started
• 14:23
  Speaker 2: firing at everybody, shooting. He killed 12 service members, one civilian,
• 14:30
  Speaker 2: wounded 32 others. This is 2009. It's a long time ago.
• 14:35
  Speaker 2: Fort Hood, Texas. He went on a total rampage terrorist attack,
• 14:38
  Speaker 2: killed all kinds of people on the base. In 2013,
• 14:41
  Speaker 2: the military court sentenced him to death. And it's time
• 14:47
  Speaker 2: now to execute him. Well, Pete Hegseth, Secretary of War
• 14:51
  Speaker 2: Pete Hegseth, has recommended a firing squad. And President Trump
• 14:56
  Speaker 2: has approved it. So this guy will face a firing squad. Now,
• 15:02
  Speaker 2: if anybody deserves that, it's this guy. You know, there's
• 15:04
  Speaker 2: been all this stuff about executions that don't work. Lethal
• 15:08
  Speaker 2: injection didn't work on Krista Pike. And we see these
• 15:11
  Speaker 2: numbers coming out to 3% of the executions don't work,
• 15:16
  Speaker 2: whether it's hanging or electrocution or lethal injections. The one
• 15:21
  Speaker 2: thing they know works is a firing squad. So this
• 15:23
  Speaker 2: guy will face a firing squad. Believe it or not,
• 15:25
  Speaker 2: they still have firing squads. I think is it four
• 15:30
  Speaker 2: or five States still allow firing squad. So this guy will,
• 15:33
  Speaker 2: We'll face one, and that's a good thing. Yankees lost
• 15:36
  Speaker 2: last night. They're down two games. They lose one more game,
• 15:42
  Speaker 2: they're out. They're facing the best team in baseball. They
• 15:46
  Speaker 2: come back to Yankee Stadium. That helps. Home field advantage.
• 15:49
  Speaker 2: But they can't beat Tampa Bay three times in a row.
• 15:53
  Speaker 2: It's not possible. They can't do it. If they did,
• 15:57
  Speaker 2: it would be the greatest miracle in the history of sports.
• 15:59
  Speaker 2: They can't do it. Sometimes that's happened where you come
• 16:02
  Speaker 2: back from two down. But it's always two evenly matched teams,
• 16:06
  Speaker 2: not where one team is far superior. The Yankees lost
• 16:09
  Speaker 2: because of just error after error after error. And you
• 16:14
  Speaker 2: can't even single anybody out because they were all dropping
• 16:16
  Speaker 2: balls or throwing wildly. But the Yankees lost last night.
• 16:20
  Speaker 2: Now you've got second and third two out.
• 16:22
  Speaker 4: The Yankees have a misplay and an error in this inning.
• 16:25
  Speaker 2: Palacios, a bullet into center field. The base hit. One
• 16:28
  Speaker 2: run is in. Simpson.
• 16:29
  Speaker 4: Here comes DeLuca and hits the nine.
• 16:35
  Speaker 2: DeLuca scores. Richie Palacios.
• 16:37
  Speaker 3: Two RBI single makes it 5-1 Rays. Oh, God.
• 16:42
  Speaker 2: It was rough. It was rough. So the next game
• 16:44
  Speaker 2: is not tonight, right? It's tomorrow, Wednesday night. Wednesday night,
• 16:47
  Speaker 2: tomorrow night, Yankee Stadium. But again, their chances of winning
• 16:52
  Speaker 2: the series now drops to about 5%, maybe, maybe. Hey,
• 16:58
  Speaker 2: we've got a lot to get to. Don't forget, I'm
• 17:00
  Speaker 2: here 9 to noon every day. It's three hours every day,
• 17:03
  Speaker 2: 9 to noon. We'll get to the 30th anniversary of
• 17:06
  Speaker 2: Fox and a whole lot more coming up. Oh, also,
• 17:10
  Speaker 2: we'll get to Jack Smith. He's been caught now in
• 17:13
  Speaker 2: another just terrible, Awful, awful, awful thing that he should
• 17:17
  Speaker 2: go to jail for. We'll get to that coming up
• 17:20
  Speaker 2: on 710-W-O-O.
