- 0:23Speaker 1: us back. Let's go to Rob in Long Island. Rob,
- 0:26Speaker 1: how you doing?
- 0:27Speaker 3: Good morning? Mark. My question is why can't some of
- 0:30Speaker 3: these Middle Eastern countries who are our allies while we're
- 0:33Speaker 3: doing all the dirty work, cut a check. I mean
- 0:35Speaker 3: they're doing Congress of thirty seven billion dollars. They can't
- 0:38Speaker 3: cut our kuwait Uae. So do you reabe they can't
- 0:40Speaker 3: cut a shack for two billion dollars? Even help us out.
- 0:43Speaker 1: Yeah, that's a good point. That's not a bad point.
- 0:45Speaker 1: You have to give us a jet. I'm sure they're
- 0:48Speaker 1: helping us in all kinds of ways. They've listen, they
- 0:51Speaker 1: all want to get rid of Iran. Iran is the
- 0:53Speaker 1: most evil country in the world. It's right in their neighborhood.
- 0:57Speaker 1: Who knows what they're doing behind the scenes, you know,
- 0:59Speaker 1: publicly they may oppose this, behind the scenes intelligence wise,
- 1:03Speaker 1: other ways they might actually be helping us. Let's go
- 1:06Speaker 1: to Joe in Elmwood Park, Joe, How you doing all right?
- 1:09Speaker 1: Good morning?
- 1:10Speaker 3: Mark.
- 1:11Speaker 1: First off, a couple of facts. If they're illegals, why
- 1:14Speaker 1: are they getting driver's likes to begin with?
- 1:16Speaker 4: And why is she blaming the last administration when it
- 1:18Speaker 4: benefited her too?
- 1:19Speaker 1: Yeah, No, that's what he's talking about, Mikey Cheryl. Yeah,
- 1:23Speaker 1: they love handing the illegals driver's licenses. And when she
- 1:27Speaker 1: got caught with thousands and thousands and thousands of illegals
- 1:32Speaker 1: on her voter rolls, she blamed Trump. I don't know
- 1:35Speaker 1: what the logic is there. I'm sure she doesn't either,
- 1:38Speaker 1: but it sounds good. And when you confess into something terrible,
- 1:42Speaker 1: you did, blame Trump and your base will cheer you
- 1:45Speaker 1: no matter what you did. Let's go to Mike in Florida. Mike,
- 1:49Speaker 1: how you doing, Good morning?
- 1:51Speaker 3: Mark?
- 1:51Speaker 1: Yes, Mike.
- 1:52Speaker 4: I just wanted to make two quick points. One, Mom,
- 1:55Speaker 4: Donnie is going to be the guy presiding over the
- 1:57Speaker 4: twenty fifth anniversary of the eleven observation.
- 2:01Speaker 1: Here in New York City. Everybody's shocking.
- 2:05Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, And Mickey, Mikey Sheryl. She said, we don't deflect,
- 2:09Speaker 4: we don't obfuscate. Meanwhile, the first thing she did was
- 2:12Speaker 4: blame the vendor. Presumably the state of New Jersey has
- 2:15Speaker 4: their own IT department that would be on, you know,
- 2:18Speaker 4: investigating any software that may be malignant.
- 2:21Speaker 1: Yeah, that's a good point. It doesn't deflect. But you
- 2:24Speaker 1: blamed Trump, you played no vendor. That's a very good point.
- 2:29Speaker 1: Anything else, Mike.
- 2:31Speaker 4: Well, it's just another gloomy day, or potentially gloomy day
- 2:35Speaker 4: in Florida. So if anybody when you always mentioned people
- 2:38Speaker 4: flocking to Florida, it rains every day and it's like
- 2:41Speaker 4: a hurricane virtually.
- 2:42Speaker 1: Now, let me ask you something. It was last week
- 2:44Speaker 1: we had a heat wave. It was like one hundred
- 2:45Speaker 1: degrees for three days. It was the most unpleasant thing
- 2:48Speaker 1: to get through those three days. You people do this
- 2:51Speaker 1: for three months, How the hell do you get.
- 2:52Speaker 4: Through it more than three months.
- 2:55Speaker 3: It's it's I don't know.
- 2:56Speaker 4: It's it's it's beyond me. It's on me. I don't
- 3:00Speaker 4: understand how I can live down here. And and ironically
- 3:06Speaker 4: I lived on eighty eighth and Lex, right around the
- 3:08Speaker 4: corner from ground the ground zero for the the outbreak there.
- 3:12Speaker 1: So yeah, the episode, All right, well thanks for calling them.
- 3:17Speaker 1: Now let's go to Dave in Chicago. Dave, How you.
- 3:20Speaker 2: Doing, good morning, Mark. I'm doing very well, Thank you, Mark.
- 3:24Speaker 2: I was watching the hearings with Secretary of War Pete Hexstat,
- 3:30Speaker 2: who was absolutely brilliant and testifying about the Iran funding.
- 3:35Speaker 1: What I don't know really is absolutely brilliant. It was
- 3:38Speaker 1: pretty good. He got hit on a couple of times,
- 3:41Speaker 1: but he came back a couple of times pretty good.
- 3:43Speaker 2: Well, the point I was going to make is where
- 3:48Speaker 2: is the screening here? Within the first three minutes, three
- 3:51Speaker 2: or four of these protesters with their signs, screaming uncontrollably
- 3:56Speaker 2: had to be let out by the Capitol police. Isn't
- 3:59Speaker 2: there some sort of a screening process like the Secret
- 4:03Speaker 2: Service screams everyone who goes to a presidential event.
- 4:07Speaker 1: Well, yeah, but this Democrats on the committee have some
- 4:11Speaker 1: influence there. I'm sure they arrange for those protesters to
- 4:14Speaker 1: come in. They like that, they like that. So don't
- 4:17Speaker 1: think that was an accident. Those protesters remember the Supreme
- 4:21Speaker 1: Court Justice hearings where they were all over the place.
- 4:25Speaker 1: Don't think that was an accident. But day of good question, Yeah, Hexeth,
- 4:29Speaker 1: it was okay. I mean, see the problem is these
- 4:32Speaker 1: Democrats when it comes to doing these hearings. They are
- 4:36Speaker 1: great they I mean as far as theatrics, as far
- 4:40Speaker 1: as sound bites, yewling, screaming, vicious, ugly questions, they're great
- 4:44Speaker 1: at it. Republicans they don't know how to do their hearings. Anyway.
- 4:47Speaker 1: Let's go to whoever this is line six? What's your name? Bob?
- 4:52Speaker 1: And Mockfield? Bob? How you doing? Bob? Are you there?
- 5:00Speaker 3: Now?
- 5:00Speaker 1: Call us back? See, it's always this line six. Whenever
- 5:04Speaker 1: we have a problem where that we can't hear them
- 5:07Speaker 1: or their voice is all sped up, it's always line six.
- 5:12Speaker 1: Now what do we do about that? We could tell
- 5:14Speaker 1: engineering I guess I think we've told them before. We
- 5:19Speaker 1: could get rid of line six, only have five lines.
- 5:22Speaker 1: But then it'll happen online five all the time. Hey,
- 5:25Speaker 1: coming up, we'll get to, Hey, there was a guy
- 5:28Speaker 1: who was such an important part of Late night TV,
- 5:31Speaker 1: The Tonight Show, Letterman, all those shows, who died yesterday.
- 5:36Speaker 1: We'll talk about him coming up in the next hour.
- 5:38Speaker 1: He also will get to Bobby Kennedy Junior. This medicaid fraud.
- 5:43Speaker 1: You know, we were talking about it yesterday, This medicaid fraud.
- 5:46Speaker 1: Democrats act like it's nothing. They don't want to pay
- 5:49Speaker 1: any attention to it. But we're pointing out yesterday it's billions,
- 5:53Speaker 1: many billions of dollars in taxpayer money being stolen in
- 5:58Speaker 1: this medicaid fraud. You know, we saw a lot of
- 6:02Speaker 1: it in Minnesota, we saw a lot of it in California.
- 6:05Speaker 1: Now we're uncovering it in New York. But Bobby Kennedy
- 6:08Speaker 1: yesterday announced he's cutting funding all Medicaid funding for California,
- 6:13Speaker 1: Minnesota cut won't give it anymore until they clean this up.
- 6:18Speaker 1: So there's obviously a big reaction. Anyway, we'll get to
- 6:21Speaker 1: that in the next hour. Hey, when we come back,
- 6:24Speaker 1: we'll talk to the Dean himself, Ed Rollins. We run
- 6:28Speaker 1: a million great campaigns. We'll talk to him about Bruce
- 6:31Speaker 1: Blakeman hopefully becomes the governor. We'll talk about Mom Donnie,
- 6:34Speaker 1: we'll talk about the midterms, and a whole lot more.
- 6:37Speaker 1: Coming up next on seven to ten wor
