• 0:14
  Speaker 3: We'll get to FIFA, We'll get to Crazy Mom, Donnie
• 0:16
  Speaker 3: Legionnaire's disease, what you need to know, and a whole
• 0:20
  Speaker 3: lot more coming up. It's Monday, it's warm. I got
• 0:25
  Speaker 3: one heat wave day. That'll be Wednesday, where it gets
• 0:28
  Speaker 3: to the mid nineties. Won't be as bad as that
• 0:30
  Speaker 3: last e wave because a little less humidity. Lindsey Graham
• 0:35
  Speaker 3: apparently was having some symptoms and should have done something
• 0:42
  Speaker 3: weeks and weeks ago. Should have seen a doctor, should
• 0:45
  Speaker 3: have gotten some help, but he neglected it and died
• 0:52
  Speaker 3: from torn a order basically a heart attack heart failure
• 0:58
  Speaker 3: on Saturday. He was a big drinker, I mean not
• 1:02
  Speaker 3: an alcoholic, but a big drinker. He was always drinking.
• 1:04
  Speaker 3: That didn't help the situation. And again there was some
• 1:07
  Speaker 3: morning signs he should have had checked out, but didn't,
• 1:10
  Speaker 3: and he had gone to Ukraine and made a long,
• 1:13
  Speaker 3: long trip home from Ukraine on Saturday. Called the President
• 1:17
  Speaker 3: when he got back, mostly to tell him about his
• 1:21
  Speaker 3: talks with Zelensky, talk about the save America Act and
• 1:26
  Speaker 3: said he was tired. And it was right after that
• 1:29
  Speaker 3: phone call with the President on Saturday night that he
• 1:32
  Speaker 3: started to have chest pains. He's not married. He was
• 1:35
  Speaker 3: never married, doesn't have children, lived alone. But when he
• 1:38
  Speaker 3: was having these chest pains, he called a friend of
• 1:40
  Speaker 3: his and she called it nine one one and she
• 1:44
  Speaker 3: headed over to his house. Nine one one got there first.
• 1:47
  Speaker 3: He tried to leave the door open for them, but
• 1:49
  Speaker 3: there's a gate that you can hear nine one one
• 1:52
  Speaker 3: actually calling the medics, calling for police to help them
• 1:56
  Speaker 3: make a forcible entry into his house. They couldn't save him,
• 2:00
  Speaker 3: and he died at the age of seventy one. He
• 2:03
  Speaker 3: was supposed to be on Meet the Press Sunday morning,
• 2:08
  Speaker 3: and then who filled in? Donald Trump on the phone
• 2:11
  Speaker 3: called in to Meet the Press to talk about Lindsey Graham.
• 2:14
  Speaker 4: And he called and he said, we're all set for
• 2:17
  Speaker 4: the Save America Act. He was pushing the Save America
• 2:20
  Speaker 4: Act like crazy. He got back, said he just landed
• 2:22
  Speaker 4: from Ukraine. I said, that's a long trip to me.
• 2:26
  Speaker 4: He said, he sounded a little tired, but perfect, but
• 2:29
  Speaker 4: a little bit tired. I had a right to be. Then.
• 2:32
  Speaker 4: He was a worker he was really a worker. But
• 2:35
  Speaker 4: he sounded great actually, but he actually said he was tired.
• 2:40
  Speaker 3: Now, it's a huge loss for President Trump. Huge loss,
• 2:44
  Speaker 3: and it's not just a vote in the Senate. It
• 2:46
  Speaker 3: was Lindsay Graham who got a lot done for President Trump.
• 2:49
  Speaker 3: First of all, they talked almost every day. He was
• 2:53
  Speaker 3: a real advisor confidante of the president's. But also he
• 2:57
  Speaker 3: was a guy who could run around in the Senate
• 2:59
  Speaker 3: and people over. If they needed to convince some Democrats,
• 3:02
  Speaker 3: it was Lindsay Graham that could do it. He was
• 3:05
  Speaker 3: like an old fashion senator from the Tip O'Neil days,
• 3:09
  Speaker 3: where in those days everybody was friendly. If you were
• 3:12
  Speaker 3: a Republican, you go talk to your Democratic friends, you'd
• 3:15
  Speaker 3: take him to lunch, you'd go out for drinks after work,
• 3:18
  Speaker 3: that kind of stuff. That's all gone except Lindsay Graham
• 3:20
  Speaker 3: was still from that school of doing things and very
• 3:25
  Speaker 3: effective at getting votes, at organizing things, getting things done.
• 3:29
  Speaker 3: So huge loss for President Trump.
• 3:32
  Speaker 4: I just can't believe it. He was like a member
• 3:35
  Speaker 4: of the family.
• 3:35
  Speaker 1: To me.
• 3:36
  Speaker 4: It's very tough. Actually, it's amazing, mister he was. He
• 3:41
  Speaker 4: was such an advocate. He was you know, if he
• 3:44
  Speaker 4: wanted to get something, and you know, he had a
• 3:46
  Speaker 4: unique ability. He was able to deal with Democrats. And
• 3:49
  Speaker 4: if I had a problem, a real problem, I wouldn't
• 3:52
  Speaker 4: often ask, But if I had a problem with a Democrat,
• 3:55
  Speaker 4: he could work it out.
• 3:57
  Speaker 3: Yeah. And no better friend to Ukraine to Israel then
• 4:03
  Speaker 3: Lindsey Grammy, your Benjamin Natanya, who has been coming on
• 4:06
  Speaker 3: a lot of shows the last two days to talk
• 4:08
  Speaker 3: about his great.
• 4:09
  Speaker 1: Friend and supporter, Lindsay Graham. I think America has lost
• 4:12
  Speaker 1: a great patriot. Israel has lost one of the great
• 4:16
  Speaker 1: champions of the American Israeli Alliance. And frankly, I've lost
• 4:21
  Speaker 1: a beloved friend who I've had for many decades.
• 4:25
  Speaker 3: Yeah, so it's a huge loss. South Carolina. The governor McMaster,
• 4:31
  Speaker 3: very close ally of President Trump's, will have to appoint
• 4:34
  Speaker 3: somebody to take over that Senate seat until January. Then
• 4:39
  Speaker 3: at some point they'll have to have an election. But
• 4:44
  Speaker 3: no matter who gets elected, it will be the disappointment
• 4:47
  Speaker 3: that is in the Senate seat till January. There's a
• 4:51
  Speaker 3: couple of choices. President Trump has somebody in mind, and
• 4:55
  Speaker 3: again he's very close to McMaster. They'll figure this out.
• 4:57
  Speaker 4: Why I have somebody that I think would be great,
• 5:00
  Speaker 4: but I don't want to say it now because it just,
• 5:03
  Speaker 4: you know, it's too soon. With Lindsey, I don't want
• 5:06
  Speaker 4: to even talk about anybody. But I do have somebody
• 5:08
  Speaker 4: that I think is really good.
• 5:10
  Speaker 3: Hey, remember South Carolina has another great senator, Tim Scott.
• 5:13
  Speaker 5: I'm not sure everyone connects the dots on who he
• 5:16
  Speaker 5: is and why he is. His mother dies of cancer,
• 5:20
  Speaker 5: fifteen months later, his dad dies of a massive heart attack.
• 5:24
  Speaker 5: He adopts his a thirteen year old sister when he
• 5:27
  Speaker 5: was just nineteen years old and a student at the
• 5:30
  Speaker 5: University of South Carolina, and that remarkably hard and harsh
• 5:35
  Speaker 5: beginning would frame his worldview.
• 5:38
  Speaker 3: Yeah, and it's also interesting to note he was not
• 5:41
  Speaker 3: a rich guy. He's one of the few people in
• 5:44
  Speaker 3: the Senate that did not cash in on being a
• 5:46
  Speaker 3: senator with all that insider trading and all that stuff.
• 5:50
  Speaker 3: You know, Pelosi worth four hundred million, five hundred million,
• 5:53
  Speaker 3: some worth six hundred million, these even Marjorie Taylor Green
• 5:57
  Speaker 3: There're two minutes made twenty five million. A senator, you
• 6:01
  Speaker 3: get all kinds of inside information and believe it or not.
• 6:04
  Speaker 3: If you're in the Senate, it's legal in the Senate
• 6:07
  Speaker 3: to trade stocks on inside information. And that's how many
• 6:11
  Speaker 3: of these people make a fortune. Lindsey Graham did not
• 6:14
  Speaker 3: make a lot of money, did not die wealthy. And
• 6:18
  Speaker 3: it just goes to show what I want an honest,
• 6:21
  Speaker 3: honorable guy. He was really decent guy. Now who could
• 6:28
  Speaker 3: get that appointment to take his seat? Well, it can't
• 6:31
  Speaker 3: be Nicky Haley. She's totally disqualified because everybody hates her,
• 6:36
  Speaker 3: the President, the governor. She's the nastiest, most awful person
• 6:40
  Speaker 3: to work with. Everybody that was in the White House
• 6:43
  Speaker 3: when she was there said the most awful person they
• 6:45
  Speaker 3: ever worked with. So the President made that pretty clear.
• 6:48
  Speaker 3: There's no way it's going to be Nicki Haley. She
• 6:50
  Speaker 3: even put out a statement saying I will not be
• 6:52
  Speaker 3: running in this election because she can't even run for
• 6:55
  Speaker 3: the seat because the President everybody would come out and
• 6:58
  Speaker 3: denounce her. So she's got no shot at that. Iran Well,
• 7:04
  Speaker 3: price of oil, you know, we were back to fighting
• 7:07
  Speaker 3: with Iran, but the price of oil is not really spiked much.
• 7:10
  Speaker 3: It went up a little, just a little. It was
• 7:14
  Speaker 3: you know, before the wards in the upper sixties, sixty seven,
• 7:17
  Speaker 3: sixty eight and We had it down to that a
• 7:20
  Speaker 3: week ago. Now it's spiked up to seventy three, which
• 7:22
  Speaker 3: is not much. In the first round of the Iran War,
• 7:26
  Speaker 3: it's spiked up to one hundred and ten. So this
• 7:27
  Speaker 3: is very very very minor spike. This round will probably
• 7:33
  Speaker 3: go a few weeks. We're hitting about one hundred and
• 7:35
  Speaker 3: ninety five two hundred targets a day. We're taken out
• 7:38
  Speaker 3: missiles and drones and defense capabilities and radar and all
• 7:43
  Speaker 3: that sort of stuff. Actually, and we're concentrating more on
• 7:46
  Speaker 3: missile launchers rather than missiles. It's the launchers that are,
• 7:50
  Speaker 3: you know, the stuff we need to take out because
• 7:53
  Speaker 3: you could have a lot of missiles, but if you
• 7:54
  Speaker 3: can't launch them, they won't do anything. So this will
• 7:59
  Speaker 3: go on for a six or seven weeks, and then
• 8:01
  Speaker 3: we'll see the Straight of horn Moose. Were about to
• 8:06
  Speaker 3: open the Northern nothing, northern the southern route. The northern
• 8:10
  Speaker 3: route is right along the coast of Iraq. Southern route
• 8:14
  Speaker 3: the other side of it. We opened that last time,
• 8:17
  Speaker 3: we'll open it again. And by the way, when the
• 8:18
  Speaker 3: President opened the Straight of horn Moose a few weeks ago,
• 8:21
  Speaker 3: and he only had it open a few weeks. It
• 8:24
  Speaker 3: was pretty successful. Eight hundred ships got through when we
• 8:29
  Speaker 3: had it open, eight hundred and twenty ships actually came through.
• 8:32
  Speaker 3: Eight hundred and twenty ships got through, and they brought
• 8:35
  Speaker 3: out three hundred and eighty million gallons of barrels of oil.
• 8:40
  Speaker 3: Three hundred and eighty million barrels of oil, So that's
• 8:44
  Speaker 3: pretty successful. So we'll get that open again. That's one
• 8:46
  Speaker 3: reason price oil is not spiking up too much because
• 8:50
  Speaker 3: they realize that we'll get the we'll get the southern
• 8:54
  Speaker 3: route open, which means the Strait is basically half open,
• 8:56
  Speaker 3: which is all you need. Now. Iran has threatened to
• 9:01
  Speaker 3: kill Donald Trump. They've tried it before, but at the
• 9:05
  Speaker 3: funeral for their leader, which they had last week, huge
• 9:08
  Speaker 3: flags and huge banners saying that we will kill Donald Trump.
• 9:14
  Speaker 3: We will kill Trump. So and is Israeli intelligence picking
• 9:18
  Speaker 3: up the warning signs that they're out to kill Trump.
• 9:20
  Speaker 3: That's why they couldn't use the new air force one
• 9:22
  Speaker 3: they had used the old one. The new one doesn't
• 9:25
  Speaker 3: have full missile defense, and they were taken off from Turkey,
• 9:30
  Speaker 3: and what Israeli intelligence had picked up was that there
• 9:34
  Speaker 3: was a chance of shoulder fired missile somewhere on the ground.
• 9:38
  Speaker 3: And that's why when Trump left Turkey, it was in
• 9:41
  Speaker 3: the old Air Force One that has full missile defense,
• 9:44
  Speaker 3: and it was surrounded by fighter jets, not escorted by two,
• 9:49
  Speaker 3: surrounded by about fifteen fighter jets as Air Force One
• 9:53
  Speaker 3: came back to the US. Now, the President has made
• 9:55
  Speaker 3: it clear he's left instructions with everybody. Anything happens to him,
• 10:01
  Speaker 3: they are to just literally wipe out Iran. He said,
• 10:05
  Speaker 3: there are a thousand missiles locked and loaded, ready to go,
• 10:08
  Speaker 3: and that would only be round one. We would then
• 10:10
  Speaker 3: wipe out everything in Iran. So that's a pretty good deterrent.
• 10:13
  Speaker 3: But who knows what these crazy lunatics, if anything, is
• 10:16
  Speaker 3: a deterrent President Trump, but also over the weekend mocking
• 10:21
  Speaker 3: the Democratic Party for letting what he called the loud
• 10:24
  Speaker 3: and unattractive socialists take control, the radical left lunatics who've
• 10:30
  Speaker 3: taken over the party. You know, if you're a Democrat,
• 10:32
  Speaker 3: your enemy is Chuck Schumer, Nancy Pelosi, Hakeem Jeffries, Adam Schiff,
• 10:39
  Speaker 3: all these people. This is the enemy. These are the
• 10:41
  Speaker 3: people that allowed your party to be taken over by
• 10:44
  Speaker 3: crazed socialists, by nutsjubs, it's Schumer, Jeffries, those leaders that
• 10:49
  Speaker 3: should have stopped this, that should have done something about it,
• 10:52
  Speaker 3: should have held the line on this. They gave up,
• 10:55
  Speaker 3: They surrendered, They hid under the desk and let the
• 10:57
  Speaker 3: lunatics take over the party. We should talk. We got
• 11:01
  Speaker 3: the mom Donni here in New York who put out
• 11:04
  Speaker 3: that ridiculous map. It was basically for FIFA visitors, people
• 11:08
  Speaker 3: from all over the world coming here. He put out
• 11:11
  Speaker 3: a map of if you want to visit some of
• 11:12
  Speaker 3: our great ethnic neighborhoods, where to visit. He had Little Yemen,
• 11:17
  Speaker 3: Little Pakistan, little Nirobi. He left out little Italy, left
• 11:24
  Speaker 3: out the great Irish and Italian neighborhoods. Little Italy is
• 11:28
  Speaker 3: one of the big, big, big tourist attractions. Even locals,
• 11:33
  Speaker 3: even people in suburbs. How many times, how many times
• 11:36
  Speaker 3: somebody said, Hey, let's go eat in little Italy. Let's
• 11:38
  Speaker 3: go down a little Italy. You hear that all the time.
• 11:41
  Speaker 3: When was the last time anybody said to you, let's
• 11:44
  Speaker 3: go to a little Yemen to get something to eat.
• 11:46
  Speaker 3: Let's go eat in little Pakistan. It's never happened. Mam
• 11:50
  Speaker 3: Donnie coming up with one ridiculous excuse after another. The
• 11:55
  Speaker 3: reason he left off Little Italy is obviously socialism. Anti
• 11:59
  Speaker 3: Semism comes with it, and that's just chapter one. Right
• 12:02
  Speaker 3: behind anti semitism is anti Catholic. That's why I know,
• 12:07
  Speaker 3: literally no Irish neighborhoods, and right behind that is anti Christian. Mom,
• 12:12
  Speaker 3: Donnie again with the dumbest excuses.
• 12:14
  Speaker 2: This map was initially created by the prior administration in
• 12:17
  Speaker 2: twenty twenty three, and when we inherited it, we added
• 12:20
  Speaker 2: a few additional neighborhoods. It's clearly not an exhaustive list
• 12:24
  Speaker 2: of the more than two hundred ethnic communities that call
• 12:27
  Speaker 2: our city home, and we're going to be making additional
• 12:30
  Speaker 2: changes in the future to reflect that, and that includes
• 12:32
  Speaker 2: adding Little Lily to the map.
• 12:34
  Speaker 3: Yeah, well there you go. They inherited it from the
• 12:38
  Speaker 3: previous administration. Well that happens all the time, you know.
• 12:41
  Speaker 3: We hey, we're here at Wor. We inherited this from
• 12:45
  Speaker 3: the previous owner. And when iHeart bought it, it was
• 12:48
  Speaker 3: a dump this place. It was hideous, So we tore
• 12:52
  Speaker 3: it all down and built a whole new place. That
• 12:54
  Speaker 3: happens all the time. They buy a building, fix it up.
• 12:59
  Speaker 3: So you got the map from the previous administration. You
• 13:03
  Speaker 3: fix it up, you'll look it over, and nobody believes
• 13:07
  Speaker 3: this excuse. It was from the previous administration. So he
• 13:11
  Speaker 3: just comes up with one excuse after another. So one
• 13:13
  Speaker 3: of his commissioners was caught about to have a meeting
• 13:16
  Speaker 3: with the Iranian ambassador, which we don't recognize. And you're
• 13:22
  Speaker 3: not supposed to meet the Iranian ambassador when we're at
• 13:26
  Speaker 3: war with them, Mom, Donnie trying to explain that away.
• 13:29
  Speaker 2: That meeting did not take place. It will not take place,
• 13:32
  Speaker 2: and I did not know about it until there was
• 13:34
  Speaker 2: a press inquiry regarding it. And when it comes to
• 13:38
  Speaker 2: the work of our commissioner and our International Affairs Office,
• 13:42
  Speaker 2: it's to ensure that as we are a city of
• 13:44
  Speaker 2: the world, that we are also there to meet with
• 13:47
  Speaker 2: leaders from across the world. The focus is always on
• 13:50
  Speaker 2: our city and our relationship.
• 13:52
  Speaker 3: Well, is this guy talking about our International Affairs Office.
• 13:55
  Speaker 3: The Mayor of New York fixed the potholes, run the
• 13:59
  Speaker 3: police Department, our Foreign affairs, international policy instat. This guy
• 14:04
  Speaker 3: has visions of grandeur. You see, this guy's never had
• 14:07
  Speaker 3: a job before. He's thirty four years old. He's just
• 14:11
  Speaker 3: a kid, never had a job before, so he envisions himself.
• 14:15
  Speaker 3: You got to admit, it's a pretty amazing accomplishment to
• 14:18
  Speaker 3: have be twelve years old, never had a job, and
• 14:20
  Speaker 3: you're the mayor of New York. It's like a doogie housier.
• 14:23
  Speaker 3: It's an amazing accomplishment, mayor of New York at thirty four,
• 14:27
  Speaker 3: first job ever. So based on that, I could see
• 14:30
  Speaker 3: where he gets carried away. Thinks he'll be a president.
• 14:33
  Speaker 3: He's not qualified to be president because he wasn't born
• 14:35
  Speaker 3: in this country, but he's imagining something that will be
• 14:39
  Speaker 3: some kind of international figure. That's why he has an
• 14:42
  Speaker 3: International Foreign Affairs Policy Institute office. And if this commissioner
• 14:48
  Speaker 3: is running around meeting with the Iranian ambassador, why isn't
• 14:50
  Speaker 3: she telling anybody as he claims?
• 14:52
  Speaker 2: The commissioner recognizes that this was made an error, and
• 14:55
  Speaker 2: we're working on a new process in terms of new
• 14:58
  Speaker 2: meeting requests.
• 15:00
  Speaker 3: See that's how you talk when you're in government. You
• 15:02
  Speaker 3: just say you got caught was doing something you make
• 15:06
  Speaker 3: it was a position error where a process of requests
• 15:11
  Speaker 3: of you just throw on these government sort of words
• 15:13
  Speaker 3: and try to tunk your way out of it. Hey,
• 15:16
  Speaker 3: we'll take some calls Next eight hundred three two one
• 15:20
  Speaker 3: zero seven ten is the number eight hundred three two
• 15:23
  Speaker 3: one zero seven ten
