Hour 2: Latest on the January 2021 Pipe Bomber. · The Mark Simone Show

0:00
Speaker 1: Welcome back to the Mark Simone SHOWR Well freezing cold today.
0:10
Speaker 1: So we're just talking about this a moment ago, Marjorie
0:14
Speaker 1: Taylor Green. You remember that loony woman, Marjorie Taylor Green.
0:18
Speaker 1: So she turned on Trump when on Trump started attacking him,
0:23
Speaker 1: attacking him, attacking him. Trump attacked her back, called her
0:27
Speaker 1: a trader. So she left politics. Now, the reason she
0:30
Speaker 1: left politics is all the polling show she couldn't win,
0:35
Speaker 1: She would not win reelection, so it looks better just
0:38
Speaker 1: to resign, drop out, so you're not going to run again.
0:41
Speaker 1: And you know, sixty minutes would never put a woman
0:45
Speaker 1: like that on the air, crazy conspiracy theory, nutty. They
0:49
Speaker 1: would never put her on sixteen minutes. Ever, unless she
0:54
Speaker 1: starts attacking Trump. Then all of a sudden, she's the
0:56
Speaker 1: big interview last night, the big superstar interview of sixty minutes.
1:00
Speaker 1: She's the main feature, an interview with Marjorie Taylor Green.
1:03
Speaker 1: She's attacking Trump. They love her, they put her on
1:06
Speaker 1: the ear. She did have one great moment though, where
1:10
Speaker 1: Leslie Stall said to her, you know our awful toxic politics,
1:15
Speaker 1: all the crazy partisan She said you She looked at
1:21
Speaker 1: Marjorie Taylor Green. You know, you were a big part
1:23
Speaker 1: of the toxic politics. And good for Marjorie Taylor Green.
1:27
Speaker 1: She goes, and you weren't. She said, Leslie, you were
1:31
Speaker 1: as toxic as anybody politically, which is true. I mean,
1:35
Speaker 1: Leslie Stall got caught in more lying fake news. Remember
1:40
Speaker 1: the famous Trump interview where he talked about the surveillance
1:43
Speaker 1: on his campaign and Leslie Stall said there's no truth
1:46
Speaker 1: to that. Well, of course it turned out to be
1:47
Speaker 1: absolutely true, and she looked ridiculous. But President Trump went
1:52
Speaker 1: on truth social last night, really went after sixty minutes,
1:55
Speaker 1: Paramount attacking them like crazy. He really unleashed on them.
2:01
Speaker 1: He said, under Paramont's sixty minutes even got worse. It's
2:07
Speaker 1: actually even worse now than before. Well, give them time.
2:10
Speaker 1: The cleaning house there, it's going to take a while.
2:12
Speaker 1: It's gonna be done very slowly. They're going to get
2:15
Speaker 1: rid of people one by one. Leslie Stall will be gone.
2:18
Speaker 1: Gail King has already gone. I mean she's still on,
2:20
Speaker 1: but she's leaving. All these people will be leaving. They'll
2:24
Speaker 1: slowly clean up this mess. It's going to take a while.
2:28
Speaker 1: Now Paramount is in the good graces of the Trump
2:32
Speaker 1: administrass and they don't want to lose that because they
2:35
Speaker 1: still want to get Warner Brothers Discovery. Looks like Netflix
2:39
Speaker 1: won the bidding war to take over Warner Brothers, which
2:42
Speaker 1: includes a lot of stuff. It includes HBO, it includes
2:46
Speaker 1: all kinds. One of the reasons people want this company
2:50
Speaker 1: is the Warner Brothers Studio is actually the biggest movie
2:53
Speaker 1: studio in Hollywood, and it's a very important major production facility.
2:58
Speaker 1: And if your Netflix making a lot of movies and
3:01
Speaker 1: TV shows and all that kind of stuff, so you
3:03
Speaker 1: could use that big studio. Also, you could use HBO,
3:07
Speaker 1: HBO Max, all that stuff as a platform. There's a
3:11
Speaker 1: lot of other stuff in CNN means absolutely nothing in
3:15
Speaker 1: this It doesn't make much money. It doesn't have any viewers.
3:18
Speaker 1: It's a little, tiny nothing thing in there. In fact,
3:20
Speaker 1: if they could get rid of that and the deal,
3:23
Speaker 1: they would Netflix doesn't want it. But part of the
3:29
Speaker 1: deal Wanner Brothers Discovery, if you buy the company, you
3:31
Speaker 1: got to take CNN off our hands too. We don't
3:33
Speaker 1: want it either. So although somebody buying this could maybe
3:37
Speaker 1: use it for something, you know, you get rid of
3:40
Speaker 1: all the CNN stuff and it's still a cable network
3:43
Speaker 1: that's on all the cable systems. But even that's not
3:46
Speaker 1: of much value nowadays. So Netflix has won the bidding
3:49
Speaker 1: where now they may still not get it. They may
3:52
Speaker 1: not get the deal because the Trump administration would have
3:55
Speaker 1: to approve all of this and they could block it.
3:57
Speaker 1: There's all sorts of reasons to block the Netflix deal.
4:01
Speaker 1: I mean good business reasons. It's too much of a
4:03
Speaker 1: monopoly and it would create too big of one streaming service,
4:09
Speaker 1: so it could be held up. And that means Paramount,
4:12
Speaker 1: who was the second place bidder, could just raise their
4:15
Speaker 1: numbers a little and get it. So they're still in
4:19
Speaker 1: the running. But if Trump's mad at them over sixty minutes,
4:22
Speaker 1: that's not going to help. The price now is like
4:26
Speaker 1: thirty dollars a year. This will go to thirty five
4:28
Speaker 1: dollars a year because you can spin off a lot
4:32
Speaker 1: of these cable assets and probably get another three four
4:34
Speaker 1: dollars a year. So don't be so sure Netflix gets it,
4:39
Speaker 1: and don't be so sure the price doesn't go up
4:41
Speaker 1: in the in the end. Hey, the New York Jets,
4:48
Speaker 1: there are a lot of Jets fans out there, die
4:50
Speaker 1: hard Jets fans, been going on their whole life. They
4:53
Speaker 1: love the Jets. You could try to reason with them.
4:57
Speaker 1: It's like people with Trump the arrangement syndrome. You can't
4:59
Speaker 1: reason with them. You know, it's the same thing with
5:04
Speaker 1: the Mets. Mets fans, but every so often, the Mets
5:08
Speaker 1: get pretty good every so often. The Mets are in
5:11
Speaker 1: the playoffs in the World Series every so often. But
5:14
Speaker 1: with the Jets, nothing good ever happens. If you're going
5:19
Speaker 1: to be a Jets fan, you're just asking for heartbreak
5:24
Speaker 1: and heartache. And so they just got eliminated from the
5:28
Speaker 1: playoffs yesterday, eliminated from the playoffs every year for fifteen years.
5:35
Speaker 2: Now.
5:36
Speaker 1: If you look back at the history of the Jets,
5:38
Speaker 1: you got Joe Namath, You've got great Jets teams, you
5:40
Speaker 1: got some great So what's the problem. It's one guy.
5:45
Speaker 1: It's Woody Johnson, who's a very nice guy. He's a
5:49
Speaker 1: friend of mine. I like the guy, but he's the
5:52
Speaker 1: worst owner in the history of sports. He is a
5:58
Speaker 1: great guy in real life. He's a generous guy. He's
6:01
Speaker 1: done a lot of public service. He's a good guy.
6:03
Speaker 1: Woody Johnson, he has no business owning a football team.
6:09
Speaker 1: He's not just a bad owner. Everybody agrees. I'm not
6:12
Speaker 1: an expert. You talk to all the greatest football expert
6:16
Speaker 1: sports experts, they all agree he's the single worst owner
6:20
Speaker 1: in the history of sports. This is the worst franchise
6:24
Speaker 1: in the history of sports. There are people in the
6:26
Speaker 1: professional sports football world saying that they should come up
6:31
Speaker 1: with something in the NFL world where an owner can
6:35
Speaker 1: be eliminated if he's that bad. In other words, you know,
6:38
Speaker 1: they're very careful who they give the team to. To
6:41
Speaker 1: become an NFL owner is like the ultimate club of
6:43
Speaker 1: the world to be accepted there. But there should be
6:46
Speaker 1: some mechanism where a guy turns out to be the
6:48
Speaker 1: worst owner on earth and it's hopeless, total disaster that
6:53
Speaker 1: the NFL can make him sell the team. There should
6:55
Speaker 1: be something like that for a case like this. This
6:58
Speaker 1: guy is so unbeloe believably horrendously bad as an owner. Now,
7:03
Speaker 1: he bought the team for this is years ago for
7:07
Speaker 1: about six hundred million. It's now worth I think it's
7:12
Speaker 1: eight billion, but some are saying it's worth ten billion.
7:14
Speaker 1: So if he's forced to sell, he would make like
7:18
Speaker 1: a nine and a half million a billion, nine and
7:21
Speaker 1: a half billion dollar profit. So I mean, if you
7:25
Speaker 1: forced him to sell it, it's a great thing for
7:28
Speaker 1: him too. I mean, you should be very happy. What's
7:30
Speaker 1: the point of owning a team. Well, some people have
7:34
Speaker 1: just really loved football in sports and they want to
7:36
Speaker 1: they're really into Now this guy's that came. I think
7:38
Speaker 1: it's more of a social thing. To be an NFL
7:41
Speaker 1: team owner is quite an honor. It's the highest honor
7:46
Speaker 1: there is for a billionaire. But also it's a great thing.
7:51
Speaker 1: Every Sunday, you host everybody in your big, huge suite,
7:54
Speaker 1: you invite fifty one hundred friends. It's quite a thing.
7:57
Speaker 1: So now you might be saying, well, wait a minute,
8:00
Speaker 1: maybe he really is a great, great lover of football.
8:03
Speaker 1: I don't think so. I mean, if he was that
8:06
Speaker 1: into football, he'd know what he was doing. I mean,
8:09
Speaker 1: nobody is worse at running, so it's pretty obvious he
8:12
Speaker 1: doesn't know anything about football, and he spent money. He
8:18
Speaker 1: goes out and gets these great players, sometimes Aaron Rodgers
8:20
Speaker 1: and others. But you'll notice whenever they get a great
8:23
Speaker 1: player and bring them in, they ruin the guy. I
8:26
Speaker 1: don't care how good a quarterback you are, you are
8:28
Speaker 1: ruined when you come to the Jets it's the worst
8:32
Speaker 1: team in the history of sports. Just for the good
8:35
Speaker 1: of New York, for the good of football, he's got
8:39
Speaker 1: to sell the team. You gotta sell. I know, it's
8:45
Speaker 1: maybe make some kind of deal. You can still have
8:46
Speaker 1: the luxury suite every week and invite all your friends
8:49
Speaker 1: or something, but you gotta sell the team. It would
8:55
Speaker 1: be the only decent thing to do for Jets fans.
8:58
Speaker 1: Put them out of their anyway. He's speaking of sports.
9:03
Speaker 1: Don Mattingly did not make the Hall of Fame again
9:05
Speaker 1: this year. That's like seven years in a row. He
9:08
Speaker 1: doesn't get voted in or the Hall of Fame. That's
9:11
Speaker 1: not right. So, mom, Donnie, his new plan now is
9:17
Speaker 1: no more sweeps, homeless sweeps. You know, under Eric adamsespecially
9:21
Speaker 1: in the last year, you'll notice you don't see a
9:23
Speaker 1: lot of homeless people all You'll see one here and there,
9:26
Speaker 1: but you don't see homeless camps. You don't see any
9:28
Speaker 1: of that. They've been cleaning it up. It's a great,
9:30
Speaker 1: great plan, mom, Donnie is going to eliminate that. He's
9:34
Speaker 1: going to allow the homeless encampments. Being a crazy left
9:39
Speaker 1: wing socialist.
9:40
Speaker 3: The issue with the encampment sweeps is that they are
9:43
Speaker 3: simply pushing New Yorkers who are living in the cold
9:46
Speaker 3: to another place where they will live in the cold.
9:48
Speaker 3: In three hundred and sixty five days of twenty twenty four,
9:51
Speaker 3: this administration did not connect a single New Yorker affected
9:55
Speaker 3: by these sweeps with permanent housing. That is a failure.
10:00
Speaker 1: Yeah, so that could be, but of course that's not.
10:03
Speaker 1: There's two problems. One, you want to do something about
10:06
Speaker 1: the homeless, get them some place to live. But the
10:09
Speaker 1: other problem is you want to protect the area where
10:12
Speaker 1: the camp is, if it's a Union Square, or if
10:14
Speaker 1: it's a wherever it is, if it's thirty fourth and fifth,
10:20
Speaker 1: you don't want a homeless camp. Or you want to
10:21
Speaker 1: protect the neighborhood, the block, the buildings. You get rid
10:24
Speaker 1: of the homeless encampment. You've got to get rid of it.
10:27
Speaker 1: Otherwise you ruin the neighborhood. You do tremendous damage to businesses, apartments,
10:31
Speaker 1: economic damage. It creates chaos. It's pretty obvious. And he
10:36
Speaker 1: says that the homeless were never connected to permanent house.
10:40
Speaker 1: Well that doesn't you know, Just get them off the street,
10:42
Speaker 1: find them someplace. It doesn't have to be permanent. You
10:44
Speaker 1: can work on that later.
10:45
Speaker 4: If you are not connecting homeless New Yorkers to the
10:49
Speaker 4: housing that they so desperately need, then you cannot deem
10:52
Speaker 4: anything you're doing to be a success. We are going
10:55
Speaker 4: to take an approach that understands its mission is connecting
11:00
Speaker 4: those New Yorkers to housing, whether it's supportive housing, whether
11:02
Speaker 4: it's rental housing, whatever kind of housing it is.
11:04
Speaker 1: Well, see, no, not really. Job number one is clean
11:07
Speaker 1: up the street, clean up the chaos. That was part
11:10
Speaker 1: of the plan. At some point you could find them
11:12
Speaker 1: permanent housing. You know, you could say, well what about
11:15
Speaker 1: the shelters. First of all, clean up the shelters. You know,
11:18
Speaker 1: remember Deblasio would inspect the shelter and he'd say, well,
11:21
Speaker 1: people can't go here. It's got rodents, it's got crime. Well,
11:27
Speaker 1: as Giuliani showed, you can fix that. You come in
11:29
Speaker 1: the next day with an army of exterminators, get rid
11:34
Speaker 1: of the rodents, You come in with a bunch of security,
11:37
Speaker 1: and get rid of the You can do that now.
11:39
Speaker 1: They find. The other thing is the homeless will not
11:41
Speaker 1: go into the shelters. They won't stay in the shelters.
11:45
Speaker 1: Why because you're not allowed to use drugs. You're not
11:48
Speaker 1: allowed to drink in there. Now, most of the homeless,
11:51
Speaker 1: they're vast majority. It's not about economics, it's about addiction.
11:56
Speaker 1: They're addicts drugs, alcohol, crack whatever. That's why they're out there.
12:01
Speaker 1: But Adams is pretty good with his sweep the streets.
12:04
Speaker 5: If he's stating he's no longer going to implement a
12:08
Speaker 5: smart policy on our part, New Yorkers are about to
12:11
Speaker 5: see the repercussions of that.
12:14
Speaker 1: Yeah, now again, why Democrats are incapable of learning anything.
12:21
Speaker 1: They've done this in other cities where they don't do
12:23
Speaker 1: the homelessweeps, they leave the encampments. About twenty other cities
12:26
Speaker 1: have tried this every single time. It's absolute disaster. So
12:31
Speaker 1: you've tested it twenty times. It's a total disaster. How
12:34
Speaker 1: could you not learn anything from the tests? But that's
12:38
Speaker 1: Democrats left wing. They don't learn. You know, even germs
12:42
Speaker 1: learn germs actually, you know, they learn. They changed. They
12:50
Speaker 1: you know, you get a virus that mutates, they know
12:52
Speaker 1: how to mutate change. Democrats forget it. They can't do it.
12:56
Speaker 5: We stated it was inhumane for people to live on
12:59
Speaker 5: the streets, human waste drug path Finalia a schizophrenic bipolar,
13:04
Speaker 5: living on our subways, living in our streets. We said, no,
13:07
Speaker 5: you deserve to be inside with care. Now, if he's
13:10
Speaker 5: stating he's no longer going to implement a smart policy
13:15
Speaker 5: on our part, New Yorkers are going to see the
13:18
Speaker 5: repercussions of that.
13:19
Speaker 1: Yeah, but you can't tell Mam Donnie anything. It's impossible.
13:24
Speaker 1: But Adams has actually done a good jeb. Now, Randy Mastro,
13:28
Speaker 1: he's the deputy first deputy mayor, which means he really
13:31
Speaker 1: runs everything. He runs city off top guy, Randy Mastro.
13:34
Speaker 1: He was first deputy mayor under Rudy Giuliani. So he's
13:39
Speaker 1: That's one reason you saw everything change a year ago
13:42
Speaker 1: when Randy Mastro came in. That's how everything got better
13:45
Speaker 1: and better and better. But he's put in his resident
13:48
Speaker 1: resignation for New Year's Eve. He leaves because the next day,
13:53
Speaker 1: New Year's Day, Mam Donnie takes over the next day.
13:59
Speaker 1: How bad will it get? I don't know, you know
14:04
Speaker 1: one thing about Mom Donnie. Like a lot of these guys,
14:06
Speaker 1: and I remember, he's very, very very Deblasio. Like Deblasio.
14:11
Speaker 1: You don't remember this, but he ran as a socialist.
14:14
Speaker 1: He ran with all the same crazy kooky socialism, left
14:17
Speaker 1: wing stuff. But as soon as he got elected, he
14:20
Speaker 1: started cozying up to every billionaire in the city. Deblasio's
14:25
Speaker 1: campaign was anti billionaire about it. Remember it was about
14:27
Speaker 1: there's two New York's, one for the zillionaires, one for
14:30
Speaker 1: everybody else. We got to go after these billionaires. And
14:34
Speaker 1: as soon as he got elected, Deblasio did go after
14:38
Speaker 1: the billionaires, but in a different way. It's all in
14:41
Speaker 1: my own eyes. Anytime he saw one of these billionaires,
14:44
Speaker 1: he go right up to them, Hey, how are you
14:46
Speaker 1: you have my cell number? No, let me give you
14:49
Speaker 1: my cell number. They knew what that meant. They meant
14:51
Speaker 1: it means you can call him anytime you need anything.
14:53
Speaker 1: He'll take care of you. And they know what it means.
14:56
Speaker 1: It means also, a guy's gonna call you every couple
14:58
Speaker 1: of weeks and want some money donation. That's normal. The
15:04
Speaker 1: bazillionaire will get a call. Can you do fifty? Yeah,
15:08
Speaker 1: I can do fifty. It means fifty thousand, All right,
15:11
Speaker 1: We'll tell you where to send it, and they'd give
15:13
Speaker 1: you the name of a pack. They want you to
15:14
Speaker 1: donate it too, And every couple of months you do
15:18
Speaker 1: that and then whenever you needed something you could call. Well,
15:23
Speaker 1: Mom Donnie has already started down this road. Now he
15:26
Speaker 1: claims it's for his transition team, but he went around
15:31
Speaker 1: Mom Donnie and company, coosing up to all the billionaires.
15:34
Speaker 1: He wanted to raise some money for the transition team. And,
15:38
Speaker 1: believe it or not, in the last couple of weeks
15:40
Speaker 1: he raised four million from these billionaires. He's been all
15:43
Speaker 1: over them and he's continued to do it there. He's
15:47
Speaker 1: been doing these private fundraisers with billionaires. There was one
15:52
Speaker 1: in Michael, I can't pronounce this guy's name, billionaire ceo
15:57
Speaker 1: crypto guy held a fundraiser and his great village home.
16:01
Speaker 1: The next day, Mom Donnie was in a private Tribbee
16:04
Speaker 1: Tribeca home where the Hunt oil eras Lee Hunt Hendricks,
16:10
Speaker 1: hosted another big fundraiser for him. Two uptown events, one
16:15
Speaker 1: lower east Side. These are all zillionaires, billionaires, thousand dollars
16:19
Speaker 1: a ticket, millions raised from these donors. Now, what does
16:24
Speaker 1: the transition team need so much money for? Well, as
16:27
Speaker 1: they said, most of the funds will go toward office operations,
16:33
Speaker 1: which is fine, but that's more like forty thousand to
16:36
Speaker 1: operate the office. You don't need four million to do that,
16:40
Speaker 1: you really don't. So they were raising millions and millions.
16:43
Speaker 1: This is a good sign. That's a good sign. It
16:44
Speaker 1: means he's even more Deblasio like than we thought. Hey,
16:48
Speaker 1: once again, here's the real estate report. Sales are booming
16:52
Speaker 1: in New York. Don't think everybody's leaving. In the last month,
16:56
Speaker 1: eight hundred and sixty nine contracts have been signed in
17:00
Speaker 1: the real high end. The super luxury four million dollar
17:04
Speaker 1: plus apartment sales were very strong. Just last week, forty
17:08
Speaker 1: one contracts were signed. That's a lot shows buyer confidence.
17:12
Speaker 1: This is all since the election. Many skyscrapers are now
17:16
Speaker 1: being going to be built. As I mentioned, JP Morgan
17:20
Speaker 1: Chase just opened this four billion dollar unbelievable, unbelievable skyscraper
17:25
Speaker 1: where ten thousand works. They're now looking for at least one,
17:27
Speaker 1: maybe two new skyscrapers. They're going to build nearby on
17:31
Speaker 1: the corner of fifty second and Park. They're tearing down
17:36
Speaker 1: like four buildings there to build a ninety story skyscraper.
17:40
Speaker 1: So these big real estate guys, they got a lot
17:42
Speaker 1: of faith in New York City and these are That's
17:46
Speaker 1: how they got to be billionaires. They're always right about
17:48
Speaker 1: this stuff. Hey, well, take some calls. Next. Eight hundred
17:51
Speaker 1: three to two one zero seven ten is the number
17:55
Speaker 1: eight hundred three to two one zero seven ten.
18:00
Speaker 4: No mark some own show on w A long.
18:06
Speaker 6: Hey.
18:07
Speaker 3: Oh.

19:53
Speaker 1: take some calls. Let's go to Vincent and Brooklyn. Vincent,
19:56
Speaker 1: how you doing, good.
19:58
Speaker 6: Morning, ma'm ok, good morning, Mark. The first thing I
20:02
Speaker 6: want to say, before I get to my main point,
20:04
Speaker 6: Jessica Tish is going down the wrong road. She apologized
20:08
Speaker 6: on behalf of her brother because her brother had a
20:11
Speaker 6: Jewish philanthropic meeting said that Mondami was the enemy of
20:17
Speaker 6: the Jewish people, and she jumps in and apologizes on
20:21
Speaker 6: his bef. I would never accept that, I tell her now,
20:25
Speaker 6: I wouldn't vote for I'd vote for the brother. Part
20:27
Speaker 6: of the problem with Mondami's plan is I get calls
20:31
Speaker 6: from the city and from the federal government to rent
20:35
Speaker 6: to homeless people, to Section eight, to drug addicts, to this,
20:39
Speaker 6: that and the other. And the problem is is you
20:42
Speaker 6: rent to those people, and they even guarantee that they're
20:45
Speaker 6: gonna pay you to rent and everything. What happens to
20:48
Speaker 6: the other tenants when they're in the building. What kind
20:52
Speaker 6: of a mess they're gonna make. My father years ago,
20:56
Speaker 6: almost fifty years ago, in one of his buildings that
20:58
Speaker 6: he owned, very large apartment building, he had a person
21:02
Speaker 6: or a woman who was a degenerate. She was on welfare.
21:06
Speaker 6: She didn't pay her rent for two years. My father
21:10
Speaker 6: finally got her in court and house in court right
21:13
Speaker 6: and the judge order and the city was going to
21:16
Speaker 6: pay was going to give her the money to pay
21:18
Speaker 6: the back rent. To pay the back rent, she flipped
21:21
Speaker 6: the bird on the judge, told the judge where to go,
21:26
Speaker 6: and the judge issued in order. She flipped the bird.
21:31
Speaker 6: My father winded up. He actually died before they could
21:35
Speaker 6: get the tenant out, and the new landlord who bought
21:38
Speaker 6: the building, he eventually sold it because of this tenant.
21:42
Speaker 6: That's the problem with these people. They have to live
21:46
Speaker 6: marked in a supervised dormitory where they have to get
21:50
Speaker 6: up at a certain time where they have to either
21:53
Speaker 6: go to work or that's.
21:54
Speaker 1: An excellent point. Excellent point to the dormitory.
21:58
Speaker 6: Mark. They can't live in regular house.
22:00
Speaker 1: Excellent call as always, Vincent, thanks for calling. Hey. When
22:03
Speaker 1: we come back, Miranda Divine will be with us next
22:06
Speaker 1: lots to talk to her about coming up on seven
22:08
Speaker 1: to ten wr in Mark on Demand by setting a
22:13
Speaker 1: presead for his podcast on the iHeartRadio app.
22:17
Speaker 5: Now back to Mark Simone on wo.
22:21
Speaker 1: Well, Hey, Miranda Divine, I would say now the number
22:25
Speaker 1: one biggest columnist in America, of course, all our columns
22:29
Speaker 1: the New York Post website. Hey. Also, you know she's
22:31
Speaker 1: the best selling author. If you haven't read the book
22:34
Speaker 1: The Big Guy. This is all about Biden Hunter the
22:36
Speaker 1: Biden administration. Joe, you got to get this book, The
22:39
Speaker 1: Big Guy. It's a huge bestseller. If you need a
22:41
Speaker 1: good Christmas present, the book The Big Guy by Miranda Divine. Also,
22:46
Speaker 1: she does one of the best podcasts around. It's called
22:50
Speaker 1: pod Force one. You can get it wherever you get
22:53
Speaker 1: a podcasts. Since she's with us right now, Miranda Divine,
22:56
Speaker 1: how you doing? Nope, I don't hear Miranda Devine.
23:03
Speaker 7: Are you there, hi, Mike, Oh there, you are.
23:07
Speaker 1: Great to talk to you. Where do we even start? Hey,
23:11
Speaker 1: this pipe bomber who tried to blow up the RNC
23:14
Speaker 1: and the DNC. The Trump administration catches the guy. Three
23:18
Speaker 1: week investigation. It's great. What happened for the last five years,
23:22
Speaker 1: nothing happened. Nobody looked for the guy.
23:26
Speaker 2: Well, I mean that is the big question.
23:28
Speaker 8: And I think Cash, Puttel and Pambondi alluded to that
23:32
Speaker 8: when they said that we had no new information, just
23:36
Speaker 8: fresh eyes, and the information seemed.
23:39
Speaker 2: To be there right in front of them when you
23:42
Speaker 2: look at the.
23:44
Speaker 8: Court documents. The other day on Friday, when this guy,
23:48
Speaker 8: Brian Cole Junior was arraigned, it shows that they got
23:53
Speaker 8: him through his cell phone. It pinned seven times on
23:58
Speaker 8: that night of January twenty one, around the time that
24:04
Speaker 8: the surveillance cameras showed this gray hooded figure wandering around
24:09
Speaker 8: planting pipe bombs just half a mile from the Capitol.
24:15
Speaker 8: And it's you know, the guy is seen on his
24:19
Speaker 8: phone in these videos several times or the person and
24:25
Speaker 8: the phone companies have said, yeah, there it is. And
24:28
Speaker 8: they knew that back in April of twenty twenty one,
24:31
Speaker 8: at the latest, April of twenty twenty one, the FBI
24:34
Speaker 8: had that information. But something strange happened to that investigation.
24:40
Speaker 8: They had thirteen FBI special agents on the pipe bomb
24:44
Speaker 8: case initially, and then they just.
24:49
Speaker 2: They just deprioritized it. I think, you know, Chris Ray
24:53
Speaker 2: ends up.
24:53
Speaker 8: Going before the Senate on March the first and gets
24:57
Speaker 8: hammered by Democrats demanding to know why he hasn't arrested
25:03
Speaker 8: more grandmothers for trespassing outside the capital, more Trump supporters,
25:08
Speaker 8: and and you know, maybe it's as simple as that,
25:12
Speaker 8: but the FBI was not looking for this pipe bomber
25:16
Speaker 8: because the the answer was staring them in the face.
25:20
Speaker 8: And they spent a lot of resources doing a lot
25:23
Speaker 8: of stupid, well I don't know stupid, but you know,
25:26
Speaker 8: difficult things trying to track down, you know, who bought
25:30
Speaker 8: batteries nine volt batteries, and who bought you know, the
25:35
Speaker 8: cap that was end cap on the pipe bomb, et cetera.
25:38
Speaker 8: When they were rounding up the grandmothers from J six
25:44
Speaker 8: using cell phone data, So very strange. And then there
25:48
Speaker 8: was the case that the the FBI guy in charge
25:53
Speaker 8: of the whole investigation, the head of the Washington FBI
25:56
Speaker 8: Field office, a guy retired now Stephen Duane hook Twono,
26:02
Speaker 8: He testified to Congress and in a closed door hearing
26:07
Speaker 8: and he said, oh, we got some some of this
26:10
Speaker 8: cell phone data, but.
26:11
Speaker 2: It was corrupted. Maybe the culprit.
26:14
Speaker 8: Was in that cell phone data. And yet the cell
26:17
Speaker 8: phone company said, no, no, we didn't hand over anything
26:20
Speaker 8: that was corrupted, and the FBI never complained that it
26:24
Speaker 8: was corrupted. So that's another little mystery.
26:28
Speaker 1: Is it this simple that when they looked at this
26:31
Speaker 1: pipe bombing case, because he tried to blow up the
26:33
Speaker 1: RNC and the DNC, that it was pretty clear it
26:36
Speaker 1: was not going to turn out to be a Trump supporter,
26:38
Speaker 1: So it didn't fit the narrative, so they just let
26:40
Speaker 1: it go for that reason.
26:42
Speaker 8: Yes, and maybe they knew that the suspect was a
26:45
Speaker 8: young black man at the time, he would have been
26:47
Speaker 8: twenty five and probably not a MAGA supporter. Didn't fit
26:53
Speaker 8: with their narrative that January sixth was an insurrection committed
26:57
Speaker 8: by ultra MAGA white supremacists. You know, Joe Biden dined
27:03
Speaker 8: out on that for the next four years. They thought
27:06
Speaker 8: that January sixth was the nail in the coffin of
27:08
Speaker 8: Trump's career prospects. And then they just to make sure,
27:12
Speaker 8: they decided to bang eighty one different indictments on him,
27:18
Speaker 8: and none of it worked. And now they're in trouble
27:21
Speaker 8: and about to be found out. Not that they really care,
27:25
Speaker 8: because five years have gone past almost and I guess
27:29
Speaker 8: they figure they're home free.
27:31
Speaker 1: Yeah, but they always think they got the nail in
27:33
Speaker 1: the coffin. They think the Epstein file that's the nail
27:35
Speaker 1: in the coffin, the Narco boats, that's they're always wrong
27:39
Speaker 1: every time. How come they don't learn from their mistakes.
27:43
Speaker 2: Because they actually get benefit from them.
27:45
Speaker 8: Oh, because they don't destroy him, but they certainly knock
27:49
Speaker 8: off a bit of support you know, suddenly people start grumbling.
27:53
Speaker 8: The White House needs to turn its attention to refusing
27:56
Speaker 8: the lies. It's just it's all about tying him down.
28:01
Speaker 2: I always think of Donald.
28:02
Speaker 8: Trump as like, you know, Gulliver and Gulliver's troubles, and
28:06
Speaker 8: he's got all the little midgets just tying him.
28:09
Speaker 2: Down, and he breaks free. He always breaks free.
28:12
Speaker 8: Or he's like the bull in the ring and the
28:16
Speaker 8: little guys come out come of what they're called.
28:18
Speaker 2: But they throw the darts at.
28:20
Speaker 8: Him and the spears and just weaking him up before
28:23
Speaker 8: the Matador. And of course the Matador is an old
28:26
Speaker 8: broken down hack.
28:27
Speaker 2: Which was Joe Biden.
28:29
Speaker 8: But by that stage their damage had been done. You know,
28:32
Speaker 8: they do inflict Don Trump withstands a lot, but he
28:36
Speaker 8: does get batter than bruised because he's human. And this
28:40
Speaker 8: is what they do when it works for them, and
28:42
Speaker 8: they're just playing the same old playbook with a few
28:45
Speaker 8: different characters.
28:46
Speaker 1: Huh. That's interesting. Now, whatever you're mad at Trump for
28:50
Speaker 1: the blowing up the Narco boats, whatever it is, Biden
28:55
Speaker 1: Obama did exactly the same thing with drone strikes. Whatever.
28:58
Speaker 1: Whatever you're pointing to, you can point to that Biden
29:00
Speaker 1: did it, Obama did it? How come that doesn't register
29:03
Speaker 1: with the MSNBC viewers.
29:07
Speaker 8: Oh, because they just call it what about ism and
29:09
Speaker 8: they just focus on.
29:11
Speaker 2: The outrage in front of them.
29:13
Speaker 8: Yeah, it's an old worn playbook. And luckily ms NOW,
29:18
Speaker 8: as they call themselves, just have you know, dwindling the
29:23
Speaker 8: audience and dwindling influence, and the same with CNN. So
29:28
Speaker 8: I mean there's fewer people that they can propagandize. I
29:32
Speaker 8: thought it was rather disturbing in that FBI report I
29:36
Speaker 8: wrote about last week from a group of sort of.
29:40
Speaker 2: Whistleblower type people.
29:43
Speaker 8: They said that every every television in the different field
29:48
Speaker 8: officers at the FBI is tuned into ms NOW and CNN,
29:55
Speaker 8: but never Fox, and so they've got that scardy drow.
30:00
Speaker 8: It is like propaganda. It's like Radio Rwanda before the
30:04
Speaker 8: Civil war. You know, you just keep on the drum
30:07
Speaker 8: beat the other side. They're evil, they're doing bad things.
30:11
Speaker 8: Donald Trump's a monster. And you know you get that
30:14
Speaker 8: pumped into your head twenty four to seven or every
30:17
Speaker 8: minute that you're at work, and then you go home
30:19
Speaker 8: and do.
30:20
Speaker 2: The same thing. It has to have an effect.
30:22
Speaker 1: Yeah, Now, the story was the good men and women
30:25
Speaker 1: in the FBI, it was just a bad left wing
30:27
Speaker 1: cooks on the ninth floor there with call me. But
30:30
Speaker 1: now we're hearing there were a lot of left wing
30:32
Speaker 1: cooks in the ranks put there by Muller and called
30:34
Speaker 1: me through the years. I think you.
30:36
Speaker 8: Reported that, yeah, yes, And you know it's because it
30:41
Speaker 8: was a deliberate decision by Muller. I'm not sure he
30:44
Speaker 8: particularly wanted lefties, but he certainly wanted university educated agents,
30:49
Speaker 8: and so they He really revolutionized the ranks. And when
30:55
Speaker 8: you bring in people from the universities who've done soft
30:58
Speaker 8: social sciences, inevitably they're going to be propagandaized lefties. And
31:03
Speaker 8: that changed the tenor, I'm told from some old hands
31:07
Speaker 8: of the fort the Bureau. And then of course Comey
31:11
Speaker 8: was a bad guy, and they started to prioritize high
31:19
Speaker 8: So of all the professions, of all the university educated professions,
31:25
Speaker 8: who are the most left wing, well you'd have social
31:28
Speaker 8: workers and teachers, and they prioritized teachers. So there you
31:33
Speaker 8: have it, and teachers have got the added disadvantage. There
31:38
Speaker 8: are great teachers. I Am never going to take that
31:40
Speaker 8: away from them, but they would know themselves, and they
31:43
Speaker 8: tell me themselves that they are surrounded by lefties who
31:47
Speaker 8: are also very arrogant because they're used to having classrooms
31:51
Speaker 8: of children who they can command, and so they waltzed
31:55
Speaker 8: into the FBI like they owned the place.
31:58
Speaker 1: Interesting. Well, Miranda Divine, great work as always. Now you
32:02
Speaker 1: do Pod Force one. You should listen to her podcast,
32:05
Speaker 1: Pod Force one. Who's on the next episode.
32:09
Speaker 8: Well, on Wednesday, we're talking to Hamik Dillon, who's just
32:12
Speaker 8: an attorney general who's in charge of the Civil Rights
32:15
Speaker 8: Division at the DOJ, and she is amazing talk about
32:20
Speaker 8: she would be one of the best warriors in the
32:24
Speaker 8: administration for the good things. She's against big tech, censorship,
32:28
Speaker 8: and all sorts of government over each she's.
32:32
Speaker 2: Waded in where others fear to tread.
32:34
Speaker 8: And she's also voter integrity. That's one of her big things.
32:38
Speaker 8: And I think she's going to do a.
32:40
Speaker 2: Lot of good.
32:41
Speaker 8: There are a lot of states are resisting her demands
32:44
Speaker 8: that they hand over their voter rolls to make sure
32:46
Speaker 8: that they're clean.
32:48
Speaker 2: But knowing her, she'll make sure she gets it all done.
32:51
Speaker 1: Yeah, and before Wednesday, you know what, go listen to
32:53
Speaker 1: the past episodes of Pod Force one with President Trump
32:57
Speaker 1: with a.
32:58
Speaker 7: Scott Bessont's great Yeah, our latest one's Ron Johnson interesting
33:04
Speaker 7: on quite a few on Russia Gate and interestingly on
33:09
Speaker 7: He's got to be in his bonnet about Tower seven
33:12
Speaker 7: at the World Trade Center, so which is interesting because
33:15
Speaker 7: it did blow up.
33:16
Speaker 8: In a weird way and we do know that there
33:18
Speaker 8: were CIA and FBI floors, there was lots of files.
