• 1:26

  Speaker 2: Year's Eve, we'll get to the Mamdani transition team and more. Now,
• 1:39
  Speaker 2: today's Tuesday. Tomorrow's the big travel day. Most people will
• 1:44
  Speaker 2: travel tomorrow. It's going to be the busiest Thanksgiving travel
• 1:49
  Speaker 2: season ever. It's expected that eighty two million people will
• 1:55
  Speaker 2: be traveling. That's by train, car playing. Eighty two million
• 1:59
  Speaker 2: people traveling this Thanksgiving. Now the good news, air traffic
• 2:03
  Speaker 2: controllers are all back to work. Everything's back full schedule.
• 2:09
  Speaker 2: Everything's back up to speed with air traffic control. But
• 2:12
  Speaker 2: tomorrow's the biggest travel day of airlines. They call it
• 2:15
  Speaker 2: their super Bowl. Here's the airline spokesman. It's going to
• 2:18
  Speaker 2: be a busy week for us, the airlines, the travel
• 2:22
  Speaker 2: sector in general, airports, TSA, FAA, Especially for us, this
• 2:26
  Speaker 2: week is our super Bowl. All right. I think our
• 2:29
  Speaker 2: super Bowl is a little more exciting than yours. But okay, now, hey,
• 2:32
  Speaker 2: Sean Duffy, the Transportation Secretary. I don't know what got
• 2:39
  Speaker 2: them on this kick, but you know they've been having
• 2:40
  Speaker 2: a lot of trouble on airplanes with the rowdy passengers,
• 2:44
  Speaker 2: fights breaking out, people half naked, people with bare feet,
• 2:48
  Speaker 2: putting them up on the seat, and I get bare
• 2:50
  Speaker 2: feet right next to somebody else's head. And it's been
• 2:53
  Speaker 2: absolutely disgusting years and years ago. You know, you go
• 2:56
  Speaker 2: back and watch mad Men when Don Draper has to
• 2:59
  Speaker 2: fly somewhere. You know, everybody on the plane has a
• 3:01
  Speaker 2: suit and tie. The stewardesses are all beautiful, well dressed,
• 3:05
  Speaker 2: and they're serving lobster and champagne. And the cart comes
• 3:10
  Speaker 2: down the island. They're carving this this juicy steak. This
• 3:14
  Speaker 2: was airline travel back then, back in the fifties and
• 3:17
  Speaker 2: sixties was Pan America, and it was the most elegant
• 3:20
  Speaker 2: way to travel. Everybody was dressed beautifully. It was first
• 3:24
  Speaker 2: class all the way. Now what happened, Well, truth is,
• 3:29
  Speaker 2: airline travel was expensive back then. You know, you paid
• 3:33
  Speaker 2: today's in today's dollars, you were pay thousands of dollars
• 3:36
  Speaker 2: for the airplane ticket. So and then things got cheap,
• 3:40
  Speaker 2: you know, remember it was the first one was People's
• 3:42
  Speaker 2: Express wherever. I think that was the first one in
• 3:45
  Speaker 2: the seventies where you could fly for like sixty eight bucks.
• 3:48
  Speaker 2: All of a sudden, it's very cheap. And then there
• 3:49
  Speaker 2: were more cheap airlines, and then the real airlines had
• 3:53
  Speaker 2: to start competing, so they had to bring down the
• 3:55
  Speaker 2: ticket prices. So now it's cost nothing to fly. You
• 4:00
  Speaker 2: gotta fly to Florida and back, it's two hundred dollars
• 4:02
  Speaker 2: a round trip, whereas back in the Don Draper days
• 4:05
  Speaker 2: it was four thousand, five thousand. So back then you
• 4:08
  Speaker 2: had all the wealthy, you know, well dressed to people
• 4:11
  Speaker 2: on planes, and the people with the cheap tickets were
• 4:13
  Speaker 2: all on greyhound buses. But now the airlines got cheaper
• 4:16
  Speaker 2: than the greyhound buses. So everybody's a slob on the airlines.
• 4:20
  Speaker 2: But Duffy, Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy wants to go back
• 4:24
  Speaker 2: to that golden age of air travel where people dress
• 4:27
  Speaker 2: up in a suit and tie. And he thinks if
• 4:30
  Speaker 2: you're dressed up, that would change your behavior. He's probably right,
• 4:33
  Speaker 2: you know, if you're dressed up, you behave a little differently.
• 4:35
  Speaker 2: You know, you gotta go to a wedding or a funeral,
• 4:37
  Speaker 2: and people that never get dressed up or suddenly in
• 4:39
  Speaker 2: a suit and tie, and it stiffens him up. They
• 4:41
  Speaker 2: behave a little better.
• 4:42
  Speaker 3: But here's Duffy maybe dressing with some respect, you know,
• 4:46
  Speaker 3: whether it's a pair of jeans and a decent shirt.
• 4:50
  Speaker 3: I would encourage people maybe dress a little better, which
• 4:52
  Speaker 3: encourage us, encourages us to maybe behave all a little better.
• 4:56
  Speaker 2: Now, he's absolutely right. Of course he's insane, he's crazy.
• 4:59
  Speaker 2: Nobody's going to this. Nobody. Nobody's going to do this.
• 5:03
  Speaker 2: You're not gonna get anybody to do Hey, you go
• 5:05
  Speaker 2: to a funeral. Now, people are in sweatsuits. If people
• 5:08
  Speaker 2: just don't dress up anymore.
• 5:09
  Speaker 3: Tomorrow will be the busiest day. There'll be fifty two
• 5:12
  Speaker 3: thousand flights tomorrow as Americans board aircraft fly across the country.
• 5:17
  Speaker 3: Maybe they gonna go to sporting events, they're going on vacation,
• 5:20
  Speaker 3: or hopefully they're going to spend time with their families.
• 5:24
  Speaker 2: Now you go to the hottest restaurant in Manhattan, the
• 5:26
  Speaker 2: most expensive, hottest, everybody's dressed like a slob. Now, there
• 5:30
  Speaker 2: are certain restaurants that required a jacket and tie. You know,
• 5:33
  Speaker 2: the Twenty one Club, the Four Seasons, Let's cirque, you
• 5:36
  Speaker 2: had to wear a jacket and tie. You'll notice they're
• 5:40
  Speaker 2: all clothed and out of business. It doesn't work in
• 5:43
  Speaker 2: today's world. You're not I mean, I like to get
• 5:45
  Speaker 2: dressed up, but you're not going to convince everybody to
• 5:47
  Speaker 2: put on a suit and tie to get on the plane. Now.
• 5:52
  Speaker 2: I hate to say it, but nowadays people somewhere they
• 5:55
  Speaker 2: got one suit and one tie, and it's only for
• 5:58
  Speaker 2: a funeral if they got to go to court. For
• 6:01
  Speaker 2: a lot of people, especially these badly behave people, the
• 6:03
  Speaker 2: only time they're going to wear a suit is when
• 6:05
  Speaker 2: they're the defendant on trial. And speaking of trials, the
• 6:09
  Speaker 2: Comy case and the Letitia James case both thrown out
• 6:13
  Speaker 2: by a left wing judge. They will bring back the cases.
• 6:19
  Speaker 2: They will be appealed. You know Comy was out there
• 6:22
  Speaker 2: doing his victory dance. He should probably stop that because
• 6:27
  Speaker 2: it is going to get appealed. Definitely.
• 6:29
  Speaker 4: Sure, we'll be taking all available legal action, including an
• 6:34
  Speaker 4: immediate appeal, to hold Letitia James and James Comy accountable
• 6:38
  Speaker 4: for their unlawful conduct.
• 6:40
  Speaker 2: Now they will be on trial. Here's the thing. Remember
• 6:42
  Speaker 2: when it first happened, call me me put out that video.
• 6:45
  Speaker 2: You know, Comy is this weirdo, pompous, sanctimonious guy, and
• 6:48
  Speaker 2: he put out this video. I am innocent. Let's go
• 6:52
  Speaker 2: to trial. I want to try this to show you
• 6:54
  Speaker 2: how innoson. I am Let's go to trial. Well, they
• 6:57
  Speaker 2: got no court and he didn't argue the case at all.
• 6:59
  Speaker 2: All they did was try to find some technical difficulty
• 7:02
  Speaker 2: with the prosecutor to get the case dismissed on a technicality,
• 7:06
  Speaker 2: and that's how the judge threw it out. So there
• 7:08
  Speaker 2: was no ruling of any kind on Komi's guilt or
• 7:11
  Speaker 2: Leticia James's guilt. Nothing. This was strictly the technical stuff
• 7:16
  Speaker 2: about the prosecutor that you have to be confirmed by
• 7:21
  Speaker 2: the Senate. This prosecutor was appointed as an interim prosecutor,
• 7:26
  Speaker 2: interim temporary prosecutor. So they argued that it was she
• 7:30
  Speaker 2: had used up her allotted one hundred and twenty day
• 7:33
  Speaker 2: interim appointment and then she was beyond one hundred and
• 7:36
  Speaker 2: twenty day dead. It's just silly nonsense, but that's how
• 7:40
  Speaker 2: got turned out. Now they can simply get another prosecutor,
• 7:43
  Speaker 2: which would be easy to do. They could do that,
• 7:46
  Speaker 2: they could have somebody else to do the case. The
• 7:48
  Speaker 2: only problem with Komy there is a statute of limitations,
• 7:54
  Speaker 2: and I think we just went past it, so they'd
• 7:58
  Speaker 2: have to But it was in the middle of this trial.
• 8:00
  Speaker 2: So normally you could argue to get a grace period,
• 8:03
  Speaker 2: a six to eight month grace period on that statute
• 8:06
  Speaker 2: of limitations. The judge can deny it. In fact, in
• 8:08
  Speaker 2: the ruling, this was a Bill Clinton, left wing Comy
• 8:12
  Speaker 2: lovin swamp judge who in the decision puts something in
• 8:17
  Speaker 2: there about I don't feel this this case would have
• 8:21
  Speaker 2: a grace period apply to it for statute of limitations.
• 8:25
  Speaker 2: So this judge was doing everything to protect Call Me
• 8:30
  Speaker 2: Comy was again doing his victory dance all over TV yesterday.
• 8:34
  Speaker 5: I'm grateful that the court ended the case against me,
• 8:37
  Speaker 5: which was a prosecution based on malevolence and incompetence and
• 8:42
  Speaker 5: a reflection of what the Department of Justice has become
• 8:44
  Speaker 5: under Donald Trump, which is heartbreaking.
• 8:47
  Speaker 2: Oh god, it's heartbreaking. Oh my god. There are a
• 8:51
  Speaker 2: couple of cases you could argue that maybe it's a weaponisation.
• 8:56
  Speaker 2: You could maybe argue a couple of these cases. Well,
• 8:59
  Speaker 2: they call me. There were a thousand cases that were
• 9:02
  Speaker 2: no doubt. Weapon is a total weaponization. This guy made
• 9:05
  Speaker 2: up the whole Russia hoax, total weaponization. Look, call me,
• 9:09
  Speaker 2: went after everybody and anybody. Uh So, it's I mean,
• 9:14
  Speaker 2: that's the irony of this whole thing that he's being
• 9:17
  Speaker 2: accused of doing. He's accusing Trump of doing what he's
• 9:21
  Speaker 2: the most guilty of in the history of the FBI,
• 9:24
  Speaker 2: worse than j Edgar Hoover.
• 9:25
  Speaker 5: This case mattered to me personally, obviously, but it matters
• 9:29
  Speaker 5: most because a message has to be sent that the
• 9:32
  Speaker 5: President of the United States cannot use the Department of
• 9:36
  Speaker 5: Justice to target his political enemies.
• 9:38
  Speaker 2: No, that's call Me's job. Let him do that.
• 9:41
  Speaker 5: I don't care what your politics are. You have to
• 9:44
  Speaker 5: see that as fundamentally Unamerican and a threat to the
• 9:47
  Speaker 5: rule of law that keeps all of us free.
• 9:50
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I've met call me a few times. He actually
• 9:52
  Speaker 2: talks like this, believe it or not. When you meet
• 9:54
  Speaker 2: him just socially, he's like the sanctimonious Hello. Oh, he's
• 9:59
  Speaker 2: very m she's a very serious, pompous voice. So the
• 10:03
  Speaker 2: case will come back. Now in the case of Letitia James,
• 10:06
  Speaker 2: there's no statute of limitations problem that case will proceed.
• 10:10
  Speaker 2: She's absolutely If you look at the paperwork, it looks
• 10:12
  Speaker 2: like she's absolutely guilty of mortgage frauds. So her they
• 10:16
  Speaker 2: got I don't see how they don't end up convicting her.
• 10:20
  Speaker 2: She's going to have a real problem. But call me.
• 10:23
  Speaker 2: They got to go over all these technicalities. Hey, if
• 10:26
  Speaker 2: you watch fake news NBCCBSABC, MSNBC, if you watch the
• 10:30
  Speaker 2: fake news networks, they'll give you this stuff about the
• 10:32
  Speaker 2: prosecutor who has no experience as a prosecutor. She was
• 10:36
  Speaker 2: appointed prosecutor without any experience as a prosecutor. She has
• 10:40
  Speaker 2: no prosecutorial experience. They keep making a big point out
• 10:44
  Speaker 2: of this, but because it's fake news, they never point
• 10:47
  Speaker 2: out that that's not unusual. Many many US attorneys that
• 10:50
  Speaker 2: are appointed have no experience as a prosecutor. It's pretty
• 10:53
  Speaker 2: I mean, many of them do, but many of them don't.
• 10:57
  Speaker 2: You know what good example is Chris Christy. He was
• 11:00
  Speaker 2: never a prosecutor. He was appointed US attorney with no
• 11:03
  Speaker 2: experience as a prosecutor. In fact, he'd just been a
• 11:06
  Speaker 2: regular corporate lawyer. He'd never even been in a courtroom.
• 11:09
  Speaker 2: Before when he was made US attorney. And if you
• 11:12
  Speaker 2: watch him on that Sunday Morning show, you know he's
• 11:14
  Speaker 2: always giving you that. You know, as a prosecutor. As
• 11:16
  Speaker 2: a former prosecutor, I can tell you, well, he became
• 11:20
  Speaker 2: a prosecutor just because he was a big donor, bundler
• 11:22
  Speaker 2: for George W. Bush And the reward was US attorney
• 11:26
  Speaker 2: in New Jersey. Never been a prosecutor. It's not unusual.
• 11:29
  Speaker 2: Happens all the time. So we'll see where that case goes.
• 11:33
  Speaker 2: Nothing will happen till after Thanksgiving. Everybody's going away. Hey,
• 11:37
  Speaker 2: the Trump Mam Donnie meeting all right here, So we're
• 11:42
  Speaker 2: learning more and more about this meeting. It was brokeer by.
• 11:46
  Speaker 2: He doesn't want his name mentioned. It's a big, big, big, big,
• 11:49
  Speaker 2: big New York business name, huge business name who had
• 11:53
  Speaker 2: a very good relationship with Mom Donnie. Big business guy.
• 11:58
  Speaker 2: He broke at the meeting. He admits it was Mam
• 12:03
  Speaker 2: Donnie who wanted the meeting. A top Mam Donnie inner
• 12:07
  Speaker 2: circle person approached him to see if he could set
• 12:10
  Speaker 2: up the meeting. He talked with the President, he talked
• 12:12
  Speaker 2: with the White House. They were open to the meeting,
• 12:16
  Speaker 2: and they agreed to it. Now, one of the conditions
• 12:21
  Speaker 2: was that Mam Donnie, they asked that he not come
• 12:23
  Speaker 2: in there and if there were a press conference afterwards
• 12:26
  Speaker 2: starts spewing his left wing nonsense. He agreed not to
• 12:29
  Speaker 2: do that to keep it, keep it in check, and
• 12:33
  Speaker 2: they agreed to the meeting, so it took place. Now, apparently,
• 12:38
  Speaker 2: the why would Mamdani reach out and pull strings trying
• 12:41
  Speaker 2: to get a meeting with the president. Why was it
• 12:43
  Speaker 2: so important to him, Well, apparently after he got elected.
• 12:47
  Speaker 2: One of the things that happens is you meet with
• 12:49
  Speaker 2: the current mayor, the current city hall people, the current governor,
• 12:54
  Speaker 2: the current government. You meet with them and they show
• 12:56
  Speaker 2: you the books. Basically, they show you everything, show you
• 13:00
  Speaker 2: all the inside stuff, the files, the secrets. So he's
• 13:04
  Speaker 2: looking through the financials of it and he realizes New
• 13:07
  Speaker 2: York has a huge budget problem. Then if he wants
• 13:11
  Speaker 2: to do any of these programs, pay for even a
• 13:13
  Speaker 2: few of them, he's going to have a problem. And
• 13:16
  Speaker 2: he also under law now you have to balance the
• 13:18
  Speaker 2: city budget, you can't go into debt. So he was
• 13:23
  Speaker 2: briefed on the budget and he saw that a major
• 13:26
  Speaker 2: part of it is seven point five billion in federal aid.
• 13:31
  Speaker 2: There's no way you can get that budget to work
• 13:34
  Speaker 2: without that seven point five billion in federal aid to
• 13:39
  Speaker 2: the city. So he saw it was crucial. The whole
• 13:41
  Speaker 2: budget is going to face a seventeen billion dollar budget
• 13:45
  Speaker 2: deficit in the next fiscal year. You have to balance
• 13:48
  Speaker 2: that according to the law. So he absolutely has to
• 13:53
  Speaker 2: have that federal money. If Trump cuts off the federal money,
• 13:56
  Speaker 2: he is dead. Not only do all his programs disappear.
• 14:00
  Speaker 2: Anything he wants to do is going without the federal money.
• 14:03
  Speaker 2: But he's got a major budget crisis. He could have
• 14:06
  Speaker 2: a shortfall of as much as eight billion dollars. So
• 14:10
  Speaker 2: that's why he's got to make sure that federal money
• 14:13
  Speaker 2: doesn't stop. It's the only thing that keeps his administration alive.
• 14:17
  Speaker 2: So that's why he wanted the meeting. That's why he
• 14:20
  Speaker 2: wants to get along with Trump. Trump wants the meeting
• 14:23
  Speaker 2: because he wants me. You know, like any crazy person
• 14:27
  Speaker 2: you're dealing with, Kim Jong un or Putin or whoever,
• 14:31
  Speaker 2: you want to meet with them, try to work something
• 14:33
  Speaker 2: out with them. Trump is playing nice for now, but
• 14:36
  Speaker 2: he can go, you know, rough at any time. So
• 14:41
  Speaker 2: they want to work out something with to keep deporting
• 14:43
  Speaker 2: the illegals, the criminal illegals and all that. He wants
• 14:47
  Speaker 2: the police. Trump wants the police force to be top
• 14:50
  Speaker 2: notch here in New York, total law enforcement. So if
• 14:53
  Speaker 2: Mom Donnie, you know, doesn't do the right thing on
• 14:56
  Speaker 2: either of those, Trump can stop the turn off the
• 14:59
  Speaker 2: money flow, and Mom Donnie will be in huge financial trouble.
• 15:05
  Speaker 2: So he agreed to a lot of things. He agreed
• 15:07
  Speaker 2: not to antagonize Trump. Next year they're gonna have this big,
• 15:11
  Speaker 2: big budget problem. So that's the reason it all took place.
• 15:15
  Speaker 2: They got off to a good start. Now Trump can
• 15:18
  Speaker 2: go nasty at any point if he wants. Mam Donnie
• 15:22
  Speaker 2: really doesn't have any leverage on this. As Trump said
• 15:26
  Speaker 2: to Zelenski, you don't have the cards right now. So
• 15:30
  Speaker 2: Mam Donnie will probably behave most important thing is of
• 15:32
  Speaker 2: the crime situation. He will leave the police department alone.
• 15:36
  Speaker 2: We hope that's the one thing he agreed with Trump
• 15:39
  Speaker 2: on leave the police department alone. Let him clean up
• 15:42
  Speaker 2: the crime. Anyway, we'll get back to that. We'll get
• 15:44
  Speaker 2: to the Ukraine. It looks like there's going to be
• 15:46
  Speaker 2: a peace deal. As crazy as that peace plan was,
• 15:50
  Speaker 2: as pro Russia as that police plan was. Looks like
• 15:53
  Speaker 2: they're working something out. You may have an agreement within
• 15:56
  Speaker 2: a week. Meetings are taking place as we speak. We'll
• 16:00
  Speaker 2: get to hey. New Year's Eve, they unveiled the new ball.
• 16:04
  Speaker 2: You know, every fifteen twenty years they do a new ball.
• 16:08
  Speaker 2: You know, the ball drops on New Year's Eve. It
• 16:10
  Speaker 2: used to be light bulbs, and it became LEDs and
• 16:13
  Speaker 2: then when all digital. The new ball, this one is huge.
• 16:19
  Speaker 2: It's twelve feet in diameter. It's much much, much bigger
• 16:23

  Speaker 7: once you get past the holidays, right, Oh yeah.
• 18:51
  Speaker 2: Yeah, No, the case is that there was nothing against
• 18:54
  Speaker 2: the case. It was just simply technicality on how the
• 18:57
  Speaker 2: prosecutor got appointed. So it does not help. Call me.
• 19:01
  Speaker 2: He's gonna argue.
• 19:01
  Speaker 7: You can't wait to see these people in handcuffs and
• 19:03
  Speaker 7: see their mug shots for fal Teatian James, call me

• 19:14
  Speaker 2: me will now argue statute of limitations. So remember that
• 19:18
  Speaker 2: video he put out the first day of this he said,
• 19:21
  Speaker 2: I'm ready for a trial. Let's go to trial. Now
• 19:23
  Speaker 2: he's fighting every technicality not to go to trial. Let's
• 19:27
  Speaker 2: go to Mike in Florida. Mike, how you doing, Good morning, Mark,
• 19:31
  Speaker 2: that's Mike.
• 19:32
  Speaker 8: I agree if they should be prosecuted, but it's no
• 19:36
  Speaker 8: less infuriating that they are able to stall these cases.
• 19:39
  Speaker 8: You know, nobody said anything when Colangelo went to New
• 19:43
  Speaker 8: York from the DJ to prosecute Trump. I mean, oh,
• 19:46
  Speaker 8: you know what a shock, you know, in the hush
• 19:48
  Speaker 8: money case. And not the least of which any two
• 19:52
  Speaker 8: bit you know, second third court judge can rule on
• 19:56
  Speaker 8: every you know, every.
• 19:58
  Speaker 9: Order that the president may and nobody says anything. And
• 20:01
  Speaker 9: it's a delay tactic that works because time runs out.
• 20:05
  Speaker 9: The buck is running on the administration, and so you.
• 20:09
  Speaker 2: Know, really what this is. It's just they got very
• 20:12
  Speaker 2: lucky geography wise. If this case were in a normal place,
• 20:16
  Speaker 2: a normal court, a normal judge, Camy would have a
• 20:19
  Speaker 2: big problem. But when you do it in Washington, d c.
• 20:22
  Speaker 2: Or this district in Virginia, where it's really part of Washington,
• 20:25
  Speaker 2: d C. Or if you do it in New York City,
• 20:27
  Speaker 2: get a left wing kook, Trump hating judge who will
• 20:30
  Speaker 2: always rule against anything Trump. That's the problem. So then
• 20:34
  Speaker 2: if they could get this move to a normal place.
• 20:36
  Speaker 2: That's why Trump had a easy time in the documents cases.
• 20:40
  Speaker 2: It went to Florida, we had a normal, neutral, legitimate
• 20:43
  Speaker 2: judge instead of these left wing kooks. Let's go to
• 20:46
  Speaker 2: Paul in white Stone. Paul, how you doing, Hey.
• 20:49
  Speaker 1: Mark, how you doing? You know my Bommy's bringing in.
• 20:53
  Speaker 1: There's a guy on his transition team focusing on community
• 20:56
  Speaker 1: safety named Alex Vitally. Alex is a book on college
• 21:00
  Speaker 1: professor who wants to abolish the police and legalize prostitution.
• 21:06
  Speaker 1: He doesn't allow any comments on his Facebook posts. I
• 21:09
  Speaker 1: tried to comment on it. I tried to call his
• 21:12
  Speaker 1: office at Brooklyn College.
• 21:13
  Speaker 2: Why why are you calling him?
• 21:17
  Speaker 1: Because I want to debate him. I want to I
• 21:18
  Speaker 1: want to change the debate.
• 21:20
  Speaker 2: Why should you debate him? Why should he debate you?
• 21:22
  Speaker 2: This guy's a left wing kook professor, that's what he believes.
• 21:25
  Speaker 2: You're not going to change his mind.
• 21:27
  Speaker 1: You never know, You got to get you don't give
• 21:31
  Speaker 1: leave them, leave them alone.
• 21:32
  Speaker 2: He's a left wing I'm not going to leave them alone.
• 21:35
  Speaker 1: In fact, I'm going to expose his hypocrisy because I
• 21:37
  Speaker 1: asked Brooklyn college security. Has he has he indicated abolishing
• 21:41
  Speaker 1: campus security. They said no, we've never had any time.
• 21:44
  Speaker 2: All right, but we know what he is. He's a
• 21:46
  Speaker 2: left wing kook, professor. He's never been out in the
• 21:48
  Speaker 2: real world, probably never had a real job.
• 21:50
  Speaker 1: He's all right, So we should just ignore him instead of.
• 21:54
  Speaker 2: There's nothing to expose. We know what he is as
• 21:57
  Speaker 2: soon as you said, professor Brooklyn, as soon as you
• 21:59
  Speaker 2: said profess, yes, sir, you know he's a left wing cook.
• 22:02
  Speaker 7: Yeah.
• 22:03
  Speaker 1: But you can't you can't just say, oh, all of
• 22:04
  Speaker 1: those people are crazy. Now I have given examples of
• 22:08
  Speaker 1: why that crazy.
• 22:09
  Speaker 2: You know they're crazy. Of course they're crazy. We know
• 22:11
  Speaker 2: they're crazy. All right, you're not going to do anything
• 22:14
  Speaker 2: about it. Just devote your energy to something more useful
• 22:19
  Speaker 2: than a crazy kook of a college professor. They're all nuts.
• 22:22
  Speaker 2: If you want to do something, actually get these colleges
• 22:25
  Speaker 2: to start hiring normal people instead of just left wing
• 22:28
  Speaker 2: radical kooks to be the professor's Hey, when we come
• 22:31

• 23:05
  Speaker 10: How you doing getting ready for Thanksgiving? I hear a
• 23:08
  Speaker 10: rumor you're going to be on one of the floats, amone?
• 23:10
  Speaker 10: Is that true?
• 23:11
  Speaker 2: No, it's gonna be windy and cold and freezing.
• 23:16
  Speaker 10: Have you ever been to one of those parades?
• 23:19
  Speaker 2: Well, I've been in a few parades, not to Thanksgiving
• 23:21
  Speaker 2: Day one, but other parades. No, it's kind of strange
• 23:24
  Speaker 2: marching down the road.
• 23:25
  Speaker 10: I had to work it a few times when I
• 23:27
  Speaker 10: was at Channel two. I just don't know why people
• 23:33
  Speaker 10: like to see people on floats waving. Do you have
• 23:36
  Speaker 10: any idea why they like to see that?
• 23:38
  Speaker 2: No, I don't know why anybody would stand there for
• 23:40
  Speaker 2: twelve hours. When you go watch the TV.
• 23:42
  Speaker 10: But why do they? Millions of people turn on TV's
• 23:47
  Speaker 10: is to watch people on floats waving everyone like animal
• 23:51
  Speaker 10: house and they will destroy each other. That'll be all right,
• 23:54
  Speaker 10: but I'm not getting it. They are they're waving, so.
• 23:58
  Speaker 7: What you know what?
• 24:00
  Speaker 2: It's also very generational. This Donald Duck comes by and
• 24:03
  Speaker 2: every kid goes, who the hell is that? You know?
• 24:05
  Speaker 10: They right? How about the rockets? I don't know one
• 24:08
  Speaker 10: human being who's ever seen the rockets? Do you know
• 24:11
  Speaker 10: anybody who's ever seen the rockets?
• 24:13
  Speaker 2: Well, privately I've seen a few, but not the show
• 24:17
  Speaker 2: left them. So, hey, you're the great historian. The first
• 24:22
  Speaker 2: Thanksgiving we pictured the beautifully dressed Pilgrims. They came over
• 24:26
  Speaker 2: in the Wonderful Mayflower. Tell us what really happened back then?
• 24:30
  Speaker 10: Well, sixteen twenty two, they're Uni may Flower. Sixty six
• 24:35
  Speaker 10: days they show up. They think they're in Virginia, but
• 24:38
  Speaker 10: they're not. They're in Cape cot Oh and it's cold, windy.
• 24:46
  Speaker 10: But they want off the ship because sixty six days
• 24:50
  Speaker 10: and they couldn't go on top of the ship. They
• 24:52
  Speaker 10: had all stayed beneath the deck. And you can imagine
• 24:56
  Speaker 10: the just the odor alone down there, So they all
• 25:02
  Speaker 10: want to can't where they were. I just want to
• 25:04
  Speaker 10: get off the stupid Mayflower. So they row in and
• 25:09
  Speaker 10: they show up Plymouth. If you go up to Massachusetts,
• 25:13
  Speaker 10: the town of Plymouth, there's no rock, all right. But
• 25:16
  Speaker 10: they show up and then they look at each other
• 25:19
  Speaker 10: and goes, well, what do we do now? Any drive
• 25:22
  Speaker 10: in restaurants or any door dash It's like, okay, we
• 25:27
  Speaker 10: have to find food or die. Half of them die,
• 25:32
  Speaker 10: half of them whoa yeah. Within a year. And I
• 25:36
  Speaker 10: read about this in Killing the Witches, how this harrowing
• 25:40
  Speaker 10: voyage and the reason that they had to make it.
• 25:43
  Speaker 10: And they weren't called pilgrims to one hundred years later
• 25:47
  Speaker 10: in the nineteenth century they labeled them pilgrims. They were
• 25:50
  Speaker 10: called separatists or Puritans, and they were very harsh religious people,
• 25:56
  Speaker 10: and everybody in Europe hated them. The Dutch hated them.
• 25:59
  Speaker 10: The hated them because they were like fanatics. They're like
• 26:04
  Speaker 10: the people that come to your door, you know, and
• 26:05
  Speaker 10: they want to convert you. That's what they were. And
• 26:10
  Speaker 10: so they somehow survived somehow with the help of the
• 26:14
  Speaker 10: Native American. A guy named Squanto showed them how to
• 26:18
  Speaker 10: get food out of the forest, so half of them survived.
• 26:21
  Speaker 10: But they're all quibbling and yelling at each other in
• 26:25
  Speaker 10: church for five hours and all of that. So it
• 26:28
  Speaker 10: wasn't exactly club med there, if you know what I'm saying.
• 26:31
  Speaker 2: So the first Thanksgiving dinner everybody was fighting too, not
• 26:34
  Speaker 2: just today.
• 26:35
  Speaker 10: Well now they had a dinner a courtesy of Squanto
• 26:40
  Speaker 10: in his a few tribe members, most of the tribe
• 26:44
  Speaker 10: with white gap by smallpox. And Squanto was an Indian
• 26:49
  Speaker 10: who was kidnapped by an English sailor and brought the Spain,
• 26:55
  Speaker 10: learned how to speak English and Spain, and then somehow
• 26:58
  Speaker 10: got back to Massachusetts. I don't know whether he flew
• 27:01
  Speaker 10: Jet blue. I don't know how he got back there,
• 27:05
  Speaker 10: but Squanto was a good guy and helped him out.
• 27:08
  Speaker 10: So they had a three days celebration where they all
• 27:10
  Speaker 10: got you know, they weren't supposed to get drunk, but
• 27:13
  Speaker 10: believe me, they were getting drunk. And they had oysters,
• 27:17
  Speaker 10: mostly seafood, not turkey, not turkey or you know, mashed potatoes.
• 27:24
  Speaker 10: It's mostly seafood day ate. But they had a good time.
• 27:28
  Speaker 10: And then from there the Massachusetts Bay Colony was established.
• 27:34
  Speaker 2: So how come, we have to have turkey and stuffing
• 27:36
  Speaker 2: and all that. Why can't we have seafood?
• 27:38
  Speaker 10: Well, a better question is why do we have the
• 27:41
  Speaker 10: president of the United States pardoning the turkey? Now? I
• 27:44
  Speaker 10: heard a rumor that Senator Kelly's going to be on
• 27:48
  Speaker 10: that line. He's going to get partner along with the Kelly,
• 27:50
  Speaker 10: but I don't think that's true.
• 27:53
  Speaker 2: Hey, those Congress people with their silly stunt. Although it worked,
• 27:58
  Speaker 2: it was a pretty good stunt. But we go to
• 28:02
  Speaker 2: an era of trolling and stunts, and that's how we're
• 28:04
  Speaker 2: going to do our nation's politics.
• 28:06
  Speaker 7: I know.
• 28:07
  Speaker 10: It's so ridiculous. And a man, Donnie Trump meaning was
• 28:10
  Speaker 10: a stunt too. I wrote a column on Billowilly dot
• 28:14
  Speaker 10: com about this, called a stunt Factor. Yeah. I think
• 28:17
  Speaker 10: you're right. I think this is the future politics as
• 28:20
  Speaker 10: you set up this contrived nonsense. But I don't think
• 28:25
  Speaker 10: this worked out well for the Democrats, the six of
• 28:27
  Speaker 10: these people. I don't think they gained any currency, except
• 28:31
  Speaker 10: for the far left cranks. Because even if you don't
• 28:34
  Speaker 10: like Trump and you're going, why you're undermining the military, now,
• 28:39
  Speaker 10: is that what you're doing here? If they had a beef,
• 28:42
  Speaker 10: a legitimate beef of an order that might be beyond
• 28:47
  Speaker 10: the constitutional authority of the president. I'm willing to listen
• 28:51
  Speaker 10: to that. But they didn't have anything. They just want
• 28:54
  Speaker 10: to get on television and wail about how noble they
• 28:57
  Speaker 10: are with a bunch of garbage.
• 29:00
  Speaker 2: It was a bold solution for a problem that doesn't
• 29:02
  Speaker 2: exist and has So.
• 29:06
  Speaker 10: The problem is there in a sense that there are
• 29:07
  Speaker 10: all orders given in every campaign by every president that
• 29:11
  Speaker 10: are dubious. You imagine being in Theanola gay I wrote
• 29:15
  Speaker 10: this on the column, and you got to drop the
• 29:17
  Speaker 10: a bomb on civilians and kill one hundred thousand of them.
• 29:21
  Speaker 10: I mean, that's still being debated to this day, Harry
• 29:23
  Speaker 10: Truman's order. But you're in the plane. I think, I
• 29:27
  Speaker 10: think this is your leg I'm not dropping a bomb.
• 29:30
  Speaker 7: No, he can't.
• 29:31
  Speaker 10: He can't have that nothing. Come on, so.
• 29:35
  Speaker 2: Hey, Ukraine. It seemed like a silly kind of a
• 29:38
  Speaker 2: peace plan, too much in favor of Russia. But it
• 29:41
  Speaker 2: looks like they've made some progress on it looks like
• 29:43
  Speaker 2: something could happen.
• 29:43
  Speaker 10: What do you think, Well, this is will usually happen.
• 29:46
  Speaker 10: Some slimeball leaked out the original outline of the peace
• 29:53
  Speaker 10: deal to the Telegraph newspaper in London. But you know,
• 29:58
  Speaker 10: any negotiator, if you've everyone in the negotiation in your life,
• 30:01
  Speaker 10: you always start with craziness. I want this, I want that,
• 30:06
  Speaker 10: and then you come back to the center. So the
• 30:08
  Speaker 10: President don't care about any of that. They just report
• 30:11
  Speaker 10: the league. I don't know exactly how this is going
• 30:15
  Speaker 10: to come out, but I do know that Russia is
• 30:18
  Speaker 10: much more powerful than Ukraine. And you know you're getting
• 30:23
  Speaker 10: all these dispatches from the White House saying, well, we
• 30:26
  Speaker 10: got this, we got that. I wouldn't count on Putin cooperating.
• 30:30
  Speaker 10: You know, if you read Confronting Evil and thank you
• 30:32
  Speaker 10: for mentioning it, a pop, this is a bad guy.
• 30:36
  Speaker 10: I mean beyond I mean, if you really want evil,
• 30:38
  Speaker 10: if you really want to understand it, you can read
• 30:40
  Speaker 10: my book. But you can also look at this Putin.
• 30:43
  Speaker 10: This guy he enjoys killing women and children. He likes it,
• 30:49
  Speaker 10: and he can. There's no restraint on him. He's hitler,
• 30:53
  Speaker 10: he's Stylin. He does what he wants. He's going like
• 30:55
  Speaker 10: he has to confer with somebody. So I don't get
• 31:00
  Speaker 10: too optimistic about this thing. And Zelensky has got no
• 31:03
  Speaker 10: power at all, none and so where is his bargaining position.
• 31:08
  Speaker 10: He didn't have one.
• 31:10
  Speaker 2: Yeah, if you want to read an amazing book, Bill
• 31:12
  Speaker 2: O'Reilly's latest book, Confronting Evil. If you want to really
• 31:14
  Speaker 2: be stunned, read the Putin chapter. You won't believe this guy.
• 31:19
  Speaker 2: But also, it's Christmas coming up. People need to get gifts.
• 31:22
  Speaker 2: What do you have a good deal on your books
• 31:24
  Speaker 2: for gifts?
• 31:25
  Speaker 7: Oh?
• 31:25
  Speaker 10: You know, we have a lot of good stuff. Because
• 31:26
  Speaker 10: I feel bad for working men and women, particularly in
• 31:29
  Speaker 10: the New York area. We're being gouged every time we
• 31:32
