• 0:29
  Speaker 3: but I got the thing I wanted to call you about.
• 0:32
  Speaker 3: I have an idea. How about Cuba is having a
• 0:35
  Speaker 3: blackout while all the green people take their soul panels
• 0:38
  Speaker 3: and windmills and get rid of all the power plants.
• 0:40
  Speaker 3: You show us how they work.
• 0:42
  Speaker 2: Well, that's a good idea. But the Cuba will be
• 0:46
  Speaker 2: free at some point, probably this summer. They'll free up
• 0:49
  Speaker 2: Cuba and then a lot of people will be heading
• 0:51
  Speaker 2: to Cuba for all kinds of opportunity, lots of lots
• 0:55
  Speaker 2: of interest in Cuba. Now you can just imagine that
• 0:58
  Speaker 2: by the fall, you could have a Ran free, no
• 1:02
  Speaker 2: more dictatorship. Same thing with Cuba. You could have two
• 1:05
  Speaker 2: of the biggest problems in the world all of a
• 1:07
  Speaker 2: sudden ended. Let's go to James and Secaucus. James, how
• 1:11
  Speaker 2: you doing okay?
• 1:13
  Speaker 5: Mark? I want to ask you. A Fourth of July
• 1:15
  Speaker 5: is a Saturday, celebrated Friday nine to eleven is Friday.
• 1:19
  Speaker 5: Chris was in New Year's Friday. Do you think he'll
• 1:21
  Speaker 5: put that prayer rug out? And if he does, well,
• 1:23
  Speaker 5: Kathy all will do anything about it?
• 1:25
  Speaker 2: Yeah? Well wait, wait a minute. Fourth of July is
• 1:28
  Speaker 2: on a Saturday this year.
• 1:30
  Speaker 5: Yeah, but they celebrated Friday a lot of places.
• 1:32
  Speaker 2: Oh why would they do that when it's on a Saturday?
• 1:35
  Speaker 5: Well, anyway, you mean they get we.
• 1:38
  Speaker 2: Hat Friday off that weekend, not Monday.
• 1:40
  Speaker 5: Yes, yes, yeah, Friday.
• 1:43
  Speaker 2: I don't like that. We should get Friday and Monday off.
• 1:45
  Speaker 2: We should get two days.
• 1:46
  Speaker 5: How you're doing? Get Friday, Saturday, you get Friday, Sunday,
• 1:50
  Speaker 5: you get Monday.
• 1:51
  Speaker 2: Now you got me all confused. Who's on first? I
• 1:52
  Speaker 2: don't know? But anyway, thanks for Colin. Let's go to
• 1:54
  Speaker 2: Paul and White Plains. Paul, how you doing, Mark?
• 1:58
  Speaker 6: I'm doing well, but I almost drove off the road
• 2:01
  Speaker 6: when I heard you say that Trump is going to
• 2:03
  Speaker 6: agree to allow the Iranians to tax every ship that
• 2:07
  Speaker 6: goes through.
• 2:08
  Speaker 2: This not not not not tax. But one thing they
• 2:10
  Speaker 2: want is a fee. It's not unreasonable. We do that.
• 2:12
  Speaker 2: Every country does.
• 2:13
  Speaker 6: That, but but Mark didn't.
• 2:16
  Speaker 2: We all see it's going to keep going. Every a
• 2:20
  Speaker 2: lot of countries do it. It's perfectly normal. We do it,
• 2:22
  Speaker 2: Harbor's do it. Ports do it. It's not unusual.
• 2:26
  Speaker 6: But isn't it giving them sort of like a little
• 2:30
  Speaker 6: payback for for what's going on? I mean, it seems
• 2:33
  Speaker 6: to make no sense.
• 2:35
  Speaker 2: You know, I could we could keep doing this for
• 2:36
  Speaker 2: an hour, and you're gonna keep saying that it makes
• 2:38
  Speaker 2: no sense. I don't. It's again, I'd rather not give
• 2:41
  Speaker 2: them a fee. I understand your feeling. But it's not
• 2:44
  Speaker 2: unusual happens, So it's got to be a reasonable fee.
• 2:46
  Speaker 2: I mean, but a million supports Harbor's countries. As I said, Egypt,
• 2:50
  Speaker 2: there's a fee that use the Suez Canal. It's done
• 2:53
  Speaker 2: all the time. You know you you do it, you
• 2:55
  Speaker 2: go through it yourself. You want to go over the
• 2:57
  Speaker 2: throgs Neck, you're gonna pay a fee. You'll want to
• 2:59
  Speaker 2: go through the Lincoln don You're going to pay a fee.
• 3:01
  Speaker 2: You want to come into Midtown, you're going to pay
• 3:03
  Speaker 2: a fee. Congestion pricing. Let's go to Mark and Allentown, Mark,
• 3:06
  Speaker 2: how you doing, Hey.
• 3:09
  Speaker 7: Good morning. Before I get to my question, uh, my
• 3:12
  Speaker 7: statement is that I was shocked watching ABC News World
• 3:15
  Speaker 7: last night. How they covered the poor girl.
• 3:18
  Speaker 4: That was killed in Chicago and they've said illegal immigrant
• 3:22
  Speaker 4: a few times.
• 3:23
  Speaker 7: That really floored me.
• 3:25
  Speaker 2: Wow, that's a big concession from them. Absolutely, it was
• 3:31
  Speaker 2: pretty amazing. Yeah, this poor girl was killed by this
• 3:34
  Speaker 2: illegal immigrant. You see very little coverage of it. Actually. Uh,
• 3:39
  Speaker 2: you know, if it was the other way around, if
• 3:41
  Speaker 2: she killed the immigrant, it'd be there'd be protests all
• 3:45
  Speaker 2: over the street, there'd be riots, would be every but uh,
• 3:48
  Speaker 2: this is getting very little attention. But good for ABC News.
• 3:51
  Speaker 2: Maybe they're maybe they're waking up a little. Let's go
• 3:54
  Speaker 2: to Linda and Pennsylvania. Linda, how you doing.
• 3:57
  Speaker 1: I'm good. I just have a question. Why is there
• 4:02
  Speaker 1: no outraged over the fact that white is flooding and
• 4:07
  Speaker 1: SEEMA is not being paid?
• 4:11
  Speaker 2: Say again, what's flooding?
• 4:13
  Speaker 1: Okay, Hawaii, what's twenty years?
• 4:16
  Speaker 2: Oh, Hawaii, Hawaii.
• 4:19
  Speaker 1: And you hear nothing about FEMA, but yet FEMA is
• 4:23
  Speaker 1: one of the agencies that's not being paid.
• 4:25
  Speaker 2: Yeah, it's a good point. Your a very good point.
• 4:27
  Speaker 2: After this Republican Congress holding this up. If the Republicans
• 4:32
  Speaker 2: held this up yet, it's all you'll be hearing about
• 4:34
  Speaker 2: is Hawaii is flooding while FEMA's not being paid. FEMA
• 4:36
  Speaker 2: is part of a department Homeland Security, not funded at
• 4:39
  Speaker 2: the moment. Let's go to Dennis in Long Island. Dennis,
• 4:42
  Speaker 2: how you doing?
• 4:44
  Speaker 4: Hey, Mark? How you doing?
• 4:45
  Speaker 3: Mark?
• 4:46
  Speaker 4: Great show? Mark?
• 4:48
  Speaker 5: Hey?
• 4:49
  Speaker 2: Everybody says, like a character from that in nineteen forties movie,
• 4:52
  Speaker 2: Hey Mark, why.
• 4:52
  Speaker 3: Are you Mark?
• 4:54
  Speaker 4: Yeah, Suma wants to tell Schumer wants used to take
• 4:57
  Speaker 4: their mads go up to identify them. Why do you
• 5:00
  Speaker 4: into playing field? All protesters cannot wear a mask so
• 5:03
  Speaker 4: we can identify the bad players.
• 5:06
  Speaker 2: Yeah, well, good idea. They do do that. In some
• 5:09
  Speaker 2: cities you're not allowed to wear a mask. But the
• 5:11
  Speaker 2: problem is you could have protesters with no masks and
• 5:16
  Speaker 2: the Republicans won't bother them, not gonna do anything about it.
• 5:19
  Speaker 2: But you know the problem with a nice agent is
• 5:20
  Speaker 2: if he's not wearing a mask. In today's world, you
• 5:23
  Speaker 2: can take a picture of their face. You can reverse
• 5:26
  Speaker 2: image search it. You can find out who they are,
• 5:29
  Speaker 2: You can get their address, you can go on the
• 5:30
  Speaker 2: internet and do this, get their address, and then Democratic
• 5:34
  Speaker 2: protesters will go to their house and terrorize their children
• 5:37
  Speaker 2: and their family, yelling and screaming and causing chaos outside
• 5:41
  Speaker 2: their house. It's called doxing. You find the address, you
• 5:44
  Speaker 2: go to the house, and it's just going to be
• 5:48
  Speaker 2: a nightmare for these families. So that's why they wear masks. Now,
• 5:52
  Speaker 2: Republicans never do this kind of stuff, never ever ever
• 5:55
  Speaker 2: do this kind of stuff. They don't surround somebody's house
• 5:58
  Speaker 2: and try to tear as their kids. So that's the
• 6:01
  Speaker 2: reason for the masks. They're not wearing masks at airports.
• 6:04
  Speaker 2: And a lot of people are worried about this, that
• 6:06
  Speaker 2: they're going to start photographing these ICE agents and start
• 6:08
  Speaker 2: doing this stuff. So we'll see. Let's go to Joe
• 6:11
  Speaker 2: and Nutley. Joe, how you doing?
• 6:14
  Speaker 7: Yeah, Hey, Mark, are you a longtime listener. I just
• 6:18
  Speaker 7: want to talk about the mid term elections coming up.
• 6:21
  Speaker 7: I've been hearing so much on even the Republican side,
• 6:25
  Speaker 7: how the GOP isn't going to do well in the elections,
• 6:28
  Speaker 7: and frankly, I just can't see how we can't.
• 6:31
  Speaker 2: Do well well. No, I don't don't fall for a
• 6:33
  Speaker 2: lot of fake poles being reported. We played the clip
• 6:36
  Speaker 2: of CNN yesterday where they had a real poll and
• 6:38
  Speaker 2: they had to admit Democrats are so far underwater, they're
• 6:41
  Speaker 2: down like fifty five points unders now. But also remember
• 6:45
  Speaker 2: you can't predict the midterms right now. People love to
• 6:48
  Speaker 2: do it. They love to predict, they love to guess,
• 6:50
  Speaker 2: they love to go to the polymarket, see where they gamblers.
• 6:53
  Speaker 2: It doesn't mean anything. This is like it's like trying
• 6:56
  Speaker 2: to predict who's going to win the super Bowl in
• 6:58
  Speaker 2: twenty twenty eight. Your way too far out to know
• 7:01
  Speaker 2: what's going to happen in the midterms. It's a long
• 7:03
  Speaker 2: way off now. Some will argue that as you get
• 7:06
  Speaker 2: into the late summer it gets set. I mean maybe
• 7:09
  Speaker 2: in the midsummer it starts to get locked in and so.
• 7:12
  Speaker 2: But but that even the midsummer, you're talking about months
• 7:15
  Speaker 2: and months away. Get a long way to go. Hey,
• 7:17
  Speaker 2: when we come back, Roger Friedman will be with us,
• 7:19
  Speaker 2: the great entertainment reporter. Lots to talk to him about.
• 7:22
  Speaker 2: We'll do that next on seven ten wor
