- 0:14Speaker 3: they still have the smoke, but it is a little
- 0:17Speaker 3: tiny bit less humid right now, although the committee is
- 0:20Speaker 3: going to build through the day partly sunny skies. You
- 0:22Speaker 3: just heard the forecast attempts in the mid eighties, a
- 0:25Speaker 3: little less oppressive, but the smoke is still there. Remember
- 0:27Speaker 3: we still have an air quality alert in effect, so
- 0:31Speaker 3: just be careful if you've got to go outside, especially
- 0:33Speaker 3: if you have breathing issues asthma, or if you happen

- 0:38Speaker 3: best to spend time outside. It is cont Rosatto, former
- 0:41Speaker 3: New York City TV news anchor here and always nice
- 0:45Speaker 3: to fill in. I'm a big fan of the Mark
- 0:47Speaker 3: Simone Show. I listen every single day. I listen to Mark.
- 0:51Speaker 3: I listen, in fact, I listened to right through Sean
- 0:54Speaker 3: Hannity and then I just have it onto the background
- 0:57Speaker 3: all day just to put it on. And as they
- 0:59Speaker 3: used to say, our sister station at Z one hundred,
- 1:01Speaker 3: they used to say put it on and rip the
- 1:03Speaker 3: knob off, and we recommend you do that for those
- 1:06Speaker 3: here at seven to ten WR. We've got a lot
- 1:09Speaker 3: to talk about today. By the way, for those wondering,
- 1:11Speaker 3: I got a couple of social media requests now saying
- 1:14Speaker 3: what are you doing these days? Are you retired?
- 1:16Speaker 2: No?
- 1:17Speaker 3: No, no, no no no. Of course I work here

- 1:22Speaker 3: and I do a Monday through Friday show on a
- 1:26Speaker 3: channel in New Jersey which you can get anywhere in
- 1:28Speaker 3: the world. Actually you could stream it. It's called on
- 1:31Speaker 3: New Jersey. In fact, the show is called on New
- 1:33Speaker 3: Jersey Mornings with Ken Rosato. I want to say my name,
- 1:36Speaker 3: but it's at NNJ dot com. ONNJ dot com, you
- 1:41Speaker 3: could stream it anywhere anytime, and we post the shows
- 1:45Speaker 3: up there even after they're no longer live, so if
- 1:47Speaker 3: you want to check it out again. All right, So,
- 1:49Speaker 3: so much to talk about today. Phone lines are open.
- 1:52Speaker 3: We'd love for you to call take part in the conversation.
- 1:55Speaker 3: Eight hundred three to two one zero seven ten, eight
- 1:58Speaker 3: hundred three to two one zero seven to ten. The
- 2:02Speaker 3: Trump administration, of course, everybody there now on full focus
- 2:07Speaker 3: mode after the speech of the President gave last night.
- 2:10Speaker 3: Of course, President very upset and his administration upset with
- 2:14Speaker 3: a few of the TV networks that refused to air
- 2:17Speaker 3: the president's address. Do they have to air the president's address?
- 2:21Speaker 3: Absolutely none. They are not required to by law. And
- 2:24Speaker 3: there have been issues or times in the past, I
- 2:26Speaker 3: should just say on issues, but times in the past,
- 2:29Speaker 3: one time under Obama, one time under Biden where presidential
- 2:33Speaker 3: addresses to the nation were not carried, but it was
- 2:36Speaker 3: different circumstances. Under the Obama administration, it happened to be
- 2:41Speaker 3: that the President wanted to have a prime time address
- 2:45Speaker 3: on the night that all the TV networks were airing
- 2:47Speaker 3: the debut of their fall lineup, and they had been
- 2:50Speaker 3: promoting it for weeks and weeks. So what a lot
- 2:52Speaker 3: of the what a lot of the networks did was
- 2:55Speaker 3: delay broadcast the president's address and they carried it in full.
- 3:00Speaker 3: In the case of President Biden, there was something and
- 3:03Speaker 3: I'm forgetting exactly what issue it was, but it was
- 3:05Speaker 3: an extremely controversial issue, and they did air parts of
- 3:09Speaker 3: his address, they just didn't err it in full to
- 3:11Speaker 3: absolutely say we're not going to carry it, and then
- 3:15Speaker 3: those who did carry it, who are the leftist networks,
- 3:17Speaker 3: decided to fact check as they went along. It's just
- 3:20Speaker 3: so obscenely offensive. Let the president speak. After he speaks,
- 3:25Speaker 3: you want to go point by point and attack and
- 3:27Speaker 3: final though you never ever did it to Obama and
- 3:30Speaker 3: you certainly only rarely did it to the sleepy guy Joe,
- 3:35Speaker 3: but you do it to Trump, and inevitably what he
- 3:38Speaker 3: ends up saying that you fact check as wrong three
- 3:41Speaker 3: months from now always turns out to be right. But
- 3:43Speaker 3: you don't go back and correct yourselves, do you. And yes,
- 3:46Speaker 3: I'm speaking to all the networks I formally worked at.
- 3:48Speaker 3: I have worked at ABC, NBCCBS and Fox all at
- 3:52Speaker 3: different times. I've worked for all of those networks at
- 3:55Speaker 3: various times, and I just know why it happens. It
- 3:59Speaker 3: happens because because the newsrooms are polluted with people who
- 4:03Speaker 3: are far left in their political opinion. Not even that
- 4:07Speaker 3: the people at the top are that way, although in
- 4:09Speaker 3: many cases they are. It's that when you locate your
- 4:14Speaker 3: network in Manhattan and the employees are all from the
- 4:18Speaker 3: New York City area, they live here. In many cases,
- 4:22Speaker 3: they're born and raised here, they were educated here. There's
- 4:24Speaker 3: going to be a certain mindset, and that mindset is
- 4:27Speaker 3: anti Republican. It's anti conservative, anti family, anti traditional, and
- 4:32Speaker 3: that's what you get. So when you hire people, you
- 4:35Speaker 3: can't hire people that commute in from two hundred miles away,
- 4:38Speaker 3: so you hire people from Manhattan or from the boroughs,
- 4:42Speaker 3: and just by percentage, they tend to be four to
- 4:44Speaker 3: one or five to one liberal, and so that translates
- 4:48Speaker 3: into what goes on the air. So it's not a
- 4:51Speaker 3: conspiracy at the top. It's not that the chairman of
- 4:55Speaker 3: the network says this is what we'll do. It doesn't
- 4:58Speaker 3: work that way. It's just the day today. People in charge,
- 5:01Speaker 3: the managers, you know, who select what stories go on
- 5:05Speaker 3: the air, how we cover the stories, they tend to
- 5:08Speaker 3: be left. And if it comes right down to we
- 5:10Speaker 3: will air President Trump's speech in its entirety as is,
- 5:14Speaker 3: or we will nitpick it to death, or we will
- 5:16Speaker 3: instead air a special report on the environment, they're going
- 5:20Speaker 3: to go with the environment because that's the mentality, that's
- 5:23Speaker 3: the way they were raised. They believe Republican bad anything
- 5:27Speaker 3: to the left of Republican good, and that's what ends
- 5:30Speaker 3: up making it to air. And that's why they have
- 5:32Speaker 3: no audience left. They have literally lost their audience. TV news,
- 5:37Speaker 3: every channel, every network is literally scratching and scraping for survival.
- 5:43Speaker 3: Do you know that local TV news news stations, the NBCCBSABC, etc. Stations,
- 5:51Speaker 3: the locally owned stations New York, LA, Chicago. Do you
- 5:54Speaker 3: know what they used to bill in advertising revenue on average?
- 5:58Speaker 3: And I'm not speaking with any inside information here. I'm
- 6:00Speaker 3: giving you stuff that's been in Business Week and it's
- 6:03Speaker 3: been published back in the year twenty fifteen, if you
- 6:07Speaker 3: were a Channel four in New York, or a Channel
- 6:09Speaker 3: two or a Channel seven, your advertising revenue was in
- 6:12Speaker 3: the neighborhood of three hundred to four hundred and fifty
- 6:15Speaker 3: million dollars just from that local station. Can you imagine
- 6:19Speaker 3: literally a printing press for cash. You know what it's
- 6:22Speaker 3: down to now about one hundred and twenty five to
- 6:25Speaker 3: one hundred and fifty million. Now you say, ken, that's
- 6:27Speaker 3: a lot of money. Yeah, it's a lot of money.
- 6:30Speaker 3: But remember the cost of doing business has risen substantially.
- 6:34Speaker 3: The networks are doing poorly in terms of their advertising
- 6:38Speaker 3: revenue on a national scale, so they rely on their
- 6:41Speaker 3: locally owned station revenue. They pull a lot of that
- 6:43Speaker 3: money out used to be that a Channel four, if
- 6:46Speaker 3: they made four hundred million dollars, they got to keep
- 6:48Speaker 3: three hundred and fifty million to for their operating expenses,
- 6:51Speaker 3: et cetera, et cetera. Now say a network, and I'm
- 6:54Speaker 3: not this is I'm making a lot of assumptions here,
- 6:57Speaker 3: but based on what I've read and what I know,
- 7:00Speaker 3: network will pull out ninety ninety five percent of the
- 7:03Speaker 3: income from that station, and the station isn't left with
- 7:05Speaker 3: a whole lot to run itself. So the TV news
- 7:07Speaker 3: anchors who used to make two three million a year
- 7:10Speaker 3: in the eighties and nineties, for the main anchors, they
- 7:14Speaker 3: don't make anywhere near that today. You're lucky if you
- 7:16Speaker 3: get somebody who makes between five hundred thousand and a
- 7:18Speaker 3: million as the main anchor, and then you get people
- 7:21Speaker 3: making a lot less than that in other anchor positions.
- 7:23Speaker 3: And again I'm not speaking about any specific person, and
- 7:26Speaker 3: I haven't looked at any contracts in a lot of years,
- 7:29Speaker 3: so I'm not speaking out of school. I'm just telling
- 7:31Speaker 3: you the industry is changing, The industry is dying. Broadcast
- 7:36Speaker 3: TV news is just not go to must see TV
- 7:39Speaker 3: like it used to be used to be. It came
- 7:41Speaker 3: up from work at five five thirty, you took off
- 7:43Speaker 3: your shoes. You know, you looked at the mail you
- 7:46Speaker 3: put on the six o'clock news. Today, I couldn't tell
- 7:49Speaker 3: you one person, including people who work in the industry,
- 7:52Speaker 3: who do that. And that is the problem. So you
- 7:56Speaker 3: know they call that linear broadcast. Today people are not
- 7:59Speaker 3: watching linear broadcast, meaning when it's on the air. Instead,
- 8:03Speaker 3: they tend to stream a lot. Older folks are still
- 8:06Speaker 3: doing it. Anyone under fifty forty five not so much.
- 8:10Speaker 3: Well do you remember also this case of the Trump
- 8:13Speaker 3: administration talking about wanting to replace a lot of the
- 8:18Speaker 3: US attorneys around the country. All right, So I don't
- 8:21Speaker 3: know if you heard this story. The new Seattle US
- 8:24Speaker 3: attorney was just appointed the other day. His name is
- 8:27Speaker 3: Roger Rogoff. Literally minutes after he was sworn in two
- 8:31Speaker 3: days ago, he got fired by the Trump administration. So
- 8:35Speaker 3: this is what happened. See, district court judges are allowed
- 8:38Speaker 3: to appoint a temporary US attorney if an interim appointees
- 8:43Speaker 3: term expires without a formal presidential nomination. So there was
- 8:47Speaker 3: an interim US attorney in the Seattle area, and that
- 8:52Speaker 3: individual he did his one hundred and twenty days it expired,
- 8:55Speaker 3: and at that point the judges, there are seventeen of
- 8:58Speaker 3: them in the Western District of Washington, they get to
- 9:00Speaker 3: appoint a US attorney. Now the president doesn't have to
- 9:04Speaker 3: keep it. In fact, under President Obama, there were seventeen
- 9:11Speaker 3: oh no, there were fourteen, I'm sorry, fourteen people judges
- 9:14Speaker 3: US attorneys, not judges US attorneys around the country. The
- 9:18Speaker 3: first day Obama took office, wiped them all out, got
- 9:21Speaker 3: rid of them all because they were Bush appointees. Then
- 9:24Speaker 3: over the ensuing months, there were another ninety seven that
- 9:28Speaker 3: the Obama administration terminated. They did it quietly, it never
- 9:33Speaker 3: made the news. Everyone kept their mouths shut. It was good.
- 9:36Speaker 3: Nobody sued, nobody complained because it was just the assumption
- 9:40Speaker 3: you serve at the discretion and the pleasure of the president.
- 9:44Speaker 3: And if the president comes in and says, I don't
- 9:46Speaker 3: want this guy, I want that guy, whether their personal
- 9:49Speaker 3: friends or not, that's just been accepted. But remember Trump
- 9:53Speaker 3: is Satan incarnate according to the Democrats. So the minute
- 9:58Speaker 3: the Trump administration, via the the acting Attorney General sent
- 10:02Speaker 3: a termination letter to this US attorney, Roger Rogoff, who
- 10:06Speaker 3: by the way, is a hardcore leftist in Seattle appointed
- 10:11Speaker 3: by seventeen a hardcore leftist federal judges who were all
- 10:16Speaker 3: appointed themselves by Obama and Biden. So of course the
- 10:21Speaker 3: person they would select is a hard core liberal. And
- 10:25Speaker 3: the Trump administration they have a right to put in
- 10:26Speaker 3: who they want. So they said, I'm sorry, you're terminated,
- 10:29Speaker 3: will appoint another interim US attorney until a person could
- 10:33Speaker 3: get approved by the Senate. So the interim attorney would
- 10:36Speaker 3: take that position, and then you need fifty one votes
- 10:39Speaker 3: in the Senate to confirm that person, and then they
- 10:41Speaker 3: get to serve. Okay, So of course you can't just
- 10:44Speaker 3: go away peacefully and gracefully. Right. So now Roger Rogoff
- 10:47Speaker 3: is now suing the administration, making a big deal about
- 10:50Speaker 3: it the TV news in Seattle. If you watch it,
- 10:53Speaker 3: and I saw some of it online, you would think
- 10:56Speaker 3: the president sent a noose in the mail to have
- 10:59Speaker 3: this guy. Humh. It is just unbelievable. They just can't accept.
- 11:04Speaker 3: This is the democrats of view of the universe. When
- 11:07Speaker 3: we're in power, we will appoint all these people, and
- 11:09Speaker 3: you have to shut up. When you're in power, we
- 11:12Speaker 3: will appoint all these people, and you have to shut up,
- 11:14Speaker 3: so you never get to appoint anybody. If you're a Republican,
- 11:17Speaker 3: we always have the final say because we want power.
- 11:20Speaker 3: Do you remember when Senator Chucky Chuck Schumer, hellow, good
- 11:24Speaker 3: to see you. By the way, Chuck Schumer, who, as
- 11:26Speaker 3: Mark talked about yesterday, farted on the floor of the Senate.
- 11:29Speaker 3: Did you hear that? Do we have the sound? I
- 11:31Speaker 3: think we have. I'll find it. I'll look, I'll look
- 11:33Speaker 3: for the sound of Schumer fart. I'm sure. Let me
- 11:35Speaker 3: get look through the Simone files. I'll find it here
- 11:39Speaker 3: and we'll fight. Or if you find it is he
- 11:41Speaker 3: forwarded to me, we have to It is rather disgusting
- 11:44Speaker 3: and as Simone was talking about yesterday, Mark, you can
- 11:48Speaker 3: hear Chuck Schumer laughing as he farts. I mean, kind
- 11:52Speaker 3: of a gross guy. If he's in front of hundreds
- 11:55Speaker 3: of you're in front of one hundred US senators and
- 11:58Speaker 3: the world watching on TV. You fart and you just
- 12:00Speaker 3: chuckle about it says a lot about what he must
- 12:03Speaker 3: be like privately. But nonetheless, he had announced on the
- 12:06Speaker 3: floor of the Senate on December twenty six, twenty twenty four,
- 12:10Speaker 3: he announced that two hundred and thirty five judges were
- 12:13Speaker 3: just appointed by Joe Biden to quote preserve Biden's liberal legacy.
- 12:19Speaker 3: He went on to say that Democrats would quote rely
- 12:21Speaker 3: on the judges appointed by Biden to protect his White
- 12:25Speaker 3: House legacy from President Donald Trump and what he called
- 12:29Speaker 3: the most extreme elements of Trump's agenda. So that's why
- 12:32Speaker 3: when you hear everything that the President signs an executive
- 12:36Speaker 3: order for, or every piece of legislation that the President pushes,
- 12:40Speaker 3: you hear of a US District court judge blocking it,
- 12:43Speaker 3: blocking it, blocking it. This was intentional. December twenty sixth, Ah,
- 12:48Speaker 3: thank you, December twenty sixth, twenty twenty four. This was intentional.
- 12:53Speaker 3: So thanks to Is he the best darned board guy
- 12:56Speaker 3: in the world. This was Schumer on the floor of
- 12:58Speaker 3: the Senate.
- 12:59Speaker 4: Now on iron the NDAA, when all the Trump administration
- 13:04Speaker 4: can say about his disastrous wife.
- 13:06Speaker 3: I'm sorry, I don't know why it makes me leave,
- 13:08Speaker 3: all right, So that was Chuck Schumer. I'm on the Flora.
- 13:11Speaker 3: Thank you. Is he on the floor of the Senate
- 13:13Speaker 3: farting for those who didn't hear, Yes, I'm three years old.
- 13:16Speaker 3: Now let's listen again. Listen for the listen.
- 13:19Speaker 4: Now on iron and the NDAA, but all the trumpet.
- 13:23Speaker 3: I'm sorry, Yes, I'm sorry. My mother right now is embarrassed.
- 13:27Speaker 5: I know.
- 13:28Speaker 3: But that says a lot about the man. Uh, I
- 13:32Speaker 3: will I will not forget when I was working for ABC.
- 13:36Speaker 3: Uh this is several years ago. I don't work for
- 13:38Speaker 3: ABC anymore. But I was working for ABC Television and
- 13:42Speaker 3: they had me and a whole bunch of anchors and
- 13:44Speaker 3: reporters doing the Pride I think the anniversary of Pride.
- 13:48Speaker 3: Chuck Schumer comes over to me, and he felt it
- 13:51Speaker 3: incumbent upon himself to announce to me something that has
- 13:54Speaker 3: later been published. So I'm not speaking out of school,
- 13:56Speaker 3: but he announces you now, my daughter is a lesbian
- 13:59Speaker 3: and we love HUD just like anybody else. It was
- 14:02Speaker 3: so like icky and unnecessary and like, okay, so Willie
- 14:08Speaker 3: for you should I that's great, congratulations, Senator Shumer. There's
- 14:12Speaker 3: just something so phony and icky about the man. So
- 14:15Speaker 3: the fact that like this dirty old suit that probably stinks,
- 14:18Speaker 3: like when he takes it off, it probably stands upright
- 14:20Speaker 3: against the wall for him to stand there on a
- 14:24Speaker 3: mic and fart. Okay, I'm sorry, I won't say the
- 14:27Speaker 3: word far it anymore. That's it. I've said my share
- 14:29Speaker 3: of the word for the rest of the year. But nonetheless,
- 14:33Speaker 3: when he talked to the Senate about the fact that
- 14:37Speaker 3: there would be an insurance that the Liberals would stay
- 14:40Speaker 3: in control through these activist Democrat judges, and nobody said
- 14:45Speaker 3: a word about it, that was okay. Well, look, the
- 14:48Speaker 3: bottom line is the President of the United States, who
- 14:51Speaker 3: right now, thankfully happens to be Donald J. Trump, has
- 14:55Speaker 3: a right to appoint whomever he wants into the position
- 14:58Speaker 3: of US Attorney, and has done so. In the case
- 15:02Speaker 3: of Washington, of the Washington State US Attorney, he has
- 15:06Speaker 3: at least removed the liberal person and will appoint a
- 15:09Speaker 3: conservative likely or as close to one as possible. In
- 15:12Speaker 3: the days ahead seven ten, wore the Voice of New York.
- 15:16Speaker 3: We will take your calls at eight hundred three two
- 15:18Speaker 3: one zero seven ten. Eight hundred three to two one
- 15:22Speaker 3: zero seven ten. Partly sunny today, lots of smoke though
- 15:25Speaker 3: in the air. We still have a smoke advisory, poor
- 15:28Speaker 3: air quality advisory and effect making it hard to breathe.
- 15:32Speaker 3: So just beware of that if you have breathing issues.
- 15:34Speaker 3: Highs today, mid eighties a little later, the left thought
- 15:38Speaker 3: the Supreme Court had the final say regarding birthright citizenship,
- 15:41Speaker 3: forcing assault to sit down and shut up like suckers
- 15:44Speaker 3: while illegals sneak in just to give birth to a
- 15:47Speaker 3: baby so the child could be a US citizen. But
- 15:51Speaker 3: the court left a little wiggle room regarding definitions. And
- 15:55Speaker 3: one US senator has sponsored a bill that might just
- 15:58Speaker 3: codify President Trump's eg executive order from his first day
- 16:01Speaker 3: in office. We'll talk about that. Your calls are next, though,
- 16:04Speaker 3: so we'll take him eight hundred and three to two
- 16:06Speaker 3: one zero, seven ten eleven twenty two. Right now, Ken
- 16:09Speaker 3: Rosotto on seven ten w R for the Great Mark Simone.

- 16:24Speaker 3: You are on the Mark Simone Show. Good morning, Roger.
- 16:27Speaker 6: Hi, Hi, Ken, you are unbelievable. I'm glad you fill
- 16:32Speaker 6: it in for the mall. I'm gonna let you know.
- 16:35Speaker 6: I'm I'm bumping Beantown. But I'm an old Bronx boy.
- 16:38Speaker 7: We used to go.
- 16:39Speaker 6: We used to go up to New RockA Sheell because
- 16:42Speaker 6: we didn't have a mall in the Bronx.
- 16:44Speaker 7: When I was a kid, we went to the New
- 16:46Speaker 7: RockA Sheell mall. We went up there. It was great
- 16:48Speaker 7: up there. I know you're from New Rochelle yesday.
- 16:52Speaker 6: You probably before we get to the President and the smoke.
- 16:55Speaker 6: Your probably family's originally from the Bronx.
- 16:57Speaker 3: No they believe it or not. We're we're the only
- 17:00Speaker 3: people in New Rochelle not originally from the Bronx, and
- 17:04Speaker 3: all of our friends were. But yeah, in fact, my
- 17:06Speaker 3: other half's family lived in the Bronx and then New Rochelle.
- 17:10Speaker 3: But my no, my family actually came from Trenton and
- 17:13Speaker 3: then they went to Pelham and New Rochelle. That's how
- 17:15Speaker 3: they made it. But yeah, we loved the New Rochelle.
- 17:18Speaker 3: And by the way, it wasn't New rock Shell or
- 17:20Speaker 3: New Rock City back then. It was the New Roschelle Mall.
- 17:23Speaker 3: They knocked it down and then they built what is
- 17:26Speaker 3: now the New rock Shell or the Rock whatever they
- 17:30Speaker 3: call it. I don't live there anymore, so I don't
- 17:32Speaker 3: I don't even recall. But yeah, it's a great town. Yeah, good,
- 17:36Speaker 3: are you still there? Oh? We think we put you
- 17:39Speaker 3: on there you go ahead, Roger.
- 17:41Speaker 6: Yeah, I'm still yeah, Yeah, it's funny you should say that.
- 17:44Speaker 6: When I was a little kid and my mother was
- 17:46Speaker 6: driving us all the kids up to the ball, I
- 17:48Speaker 6: used to say, why I saw the sign? I used
- 17:50Speaker 6: to call it new Rocky Shall That's how I pronounced
- 17:52Speaker 6: it before. Like you said, it was obviously newishall and
- 17:56Speaker 6: that's rare.
- 17:57Speaker 7: You have to be from the Bronx.
- 17:58Speaker 6: And people that we also, No Yankas were Bronx people too.
- 18:02Speaker 6: It was a big thing to move to Yogrochelle Yankas
- 18:05Speaker 6: when I was a little kid. But anyway, I'd just
- 18:07Speaker 6: like to say, with the smoke, we having it up
- 18:10Speaker 6: and be down to. I called so many radio shows
- 18:13Speaker 6: three years ago. This happened three years ago. They got
- 18:15Speaker 6: to build bigger fire breaks in Canada to prevent this
- 18:20Speaker 6: thing from spreading. If you have giant firebreaks, plus other
- 18:23Speaker 6: things you could do too, you could prevent this. This
- 18:26Speaker 6: is sometimes now I'm thinking they don't even care.
- 18:30Speaker 3: No, they don't because it costs money. If Roger, it
- 18:32Speaker 3: costs money, and they don't want to do it. They
- 18:34Speaker 3: don't want to do it. They just like to sit
- 18:36Speaker 3: back and blame evil the United States because it's our
- 18:40Speaker 3: fault with global warming, it's always our fault, instead of
- 18:43Speaker 3: spending the money and taking care of it. So listen,
- 18:45Speaker 3: prior to twenty twenty three, they used to do fire breaks,
- 18:47Speaker 3: they would clean up their forests, they would do controlled burns.
- 18:50Speaker 3: And do you recall in twenty twenty one, twenty twenty
- 18:52Speaker 3: two having these wildfires from Canada. No didn't happen, right
- 18:57Speaker 3: of course, of.
- 18:58Speaker 7: Course not because they would sometimes.
- 19:01Speaker 6: And also it's possible, we don't know people could be
- 19:05Speaker 6: starting these fires.
- 19:06Speaker 2: And they can be terrorists.
- 19:08Speaker 7: They're never gonna find them.
- 19:09Speaker 6: Just like the down in Florida where you walk, they
- 19:12Speaker 6: got pythons in the in the thing in the Everglades.
- 19:15Speaker 6: I would be surprised that the Russians and Chinese they're
- 19:18Speaker 6: doing after destroy our echo egoism and they dropped like
- 19:21Speaker 6: a hundred babies and there small ones.
- 19:23Speaker 7: But getting to the president, that's it. I've just touch people.
- 19:28Speaker 6: Can everybody enjoy yourself?
- 19:30Speaker 7: It is over.
- 19:32Speaker 6: The United States has been invaded by one hundred million.
- 19:35Speaker 6: A third world is and we now have a third
- 19:37Speaker 6: world country. I hear these people saying, oh, what happened?
- 19:41Speaker 7: What happened?
- 19:42Speaker 6: The problem is you didn't listen to Patrick Buchanan.
- 19:46Speaker 7: That's what happened.
- 19:47Speaker 3: Well, listen, we love people coming into the United States legally.
- 19:51Speaker 3: We just don't appreciate sneaking in the back door and
- 19:54Speaker 3: doing it the way it was done. Thank you so much, Roger.
- 19:57Speaker 3: We appreciate the phone call. Let's go to Vincent and Brooklyn.
- 19:59Speaker 8: Come on, Vincent, good morning, Good morning, rich. I heard
- 20:04Speaker 8: one of Mondami's cronies that he installed in one of
- 20:08Speaker 8: the city agencies. This is the latest boneheaded idea. What
- 20:12Speaker 8: they want to do now is they want to make
- 20:15Speaker 8: it illegal for a landlord and real it is to
- 20:20Speaker 8: ask for income verification. And if you want to do
- 20:25Speaker 8: a background check on somebody who wants to rent your apartment,
- 20:29Speaker 8: you call up whatever the landlord or the real estate
- 20:34Speaker 8: agency has to pay for it. Solely, you can't then
- 20:37Speaker 8: put that course onto the prospective tenant. What this is
- 20:42Speaker 8: going to do, rich And this is the again, and
- 20:46Speaker 8: this is the intent. If you get somebody in there
- 20:49Speaker 8: that says, yeah, I make X, Y and Z and
- 20:52Speaker 8: I could easily afford that apartment. They might have the
- 20:55Speaker 8: money for the first month, friend, and for the down payment.
- 20:59Speaker 8: Then they'll stiff the landlord or whomever on the rent,
- 21:04Speaker 8: and the way these courts are rigged, their landlord tenant
- 21:07Speaker 8: courts in New York City now as it is, it'll
- 21:11Speaker 8: take you two years to get your case finally heard,
- 21:15Speaker 8: and in all likelihood that like happened to my father,
- 21:19Speaker 8: the tenant will flip the bird to you and the
- 21:21Speaker 8: judgment right, and you still won't get any money.
- 21:24Speaker 3: And you still got to keep paying the mortgage on
- 21:26Speaker 3: that building. The bankers are going to say, oh, you're
- 21:29Speaker 3: not getting the rent, don't worry about it.
- 21:30Speaker 5: You got to pay the vantage ken recently, there was
- 21:34Speaker 5: an article in the Post where a landlord had one
- 21:38Speaker 5: of these dead beats in his apartment and forty years
- 21:42Speaker 5: he spent his daughter's college fund of two hundred and
- 21:46Speaker 5: fifty thousand dollars and the tenant is still freeloaded in
- 21:51Speaker 5: his apartment. This is up from box Lope. This is
- 21:54Speaker 5: what they intend to do.
- 21:56Speaker 3: I'm with you, how then te me to cut you off?
- 21:59Speaker 3: You know it's news time, but you're one hundred percent right.
- 22:01Speaker 3: But the way they love to set it up. They
- 22:03Speaker 3: love to set it up because oh, ideally they want
- 22:06Speaker 3: the city to take over those properties and have this
- 22:09Speaker 3: one big socialist utopia with the city running everything. Vincent
- 22:12Speaker 3: and Brooklyn love you brother, always Love Avignon seven ten
- 22:16Speaker 3: w We have some breaking news I want to tell
- 22:18Speaker 3: you about right now. Word of a seven point three
- 22:21Speaker 3: earthquake seven point three magnitude earthquake that just struck southern
- 22:26Speaker 3: Mexico in the last few minutes. As we get more information,
- 22:29Speaker 3: we will of course bring it to you.
- 22:30Speaker 1: Bill Mark Simon Show, Live from the DOBR, Life Back
- 22:35Speaker 1: Studious from Lork.
- 22:37Speaker 3: Today.
- 22:38Speaker 2: Here's Camp Rosato.
- 22:40Speaker 3: And so good to be with you on a Friday.
- 22:42Speaker 3: We go straight to our phones. We have a great
- 22:45Speaker 3: topic to talk about here. Indiana Republican Senator Jim Banks
- 22:49Speaker 3: introduced a bill to codify President Trump's executive order that
- 22:52Speaker 3: we shape the definition of birthright citizenship. The bill that
- 22:56Speaker 3: Banks introduced on Monday is called the Citizenship Act of
- 22:59Speaker 3: twenty twenty six. It requires any person who comes to
- 23:03Speaker 3: the US without authorization or for the purpose of engaging
- 23:07Speaker 3: in birth tourism to be considered an invader and not
- 23:11Speaker 3: automatically entitled to citizenship. Justice Kavanaugh argued that the issue
- 23:16Speaker 3: is statutory, not constitutional, meaning that Congress can modify the issue.
- 23:21Speaker 3: You don't need a whole constitutional amendment. He wrote that
- 23:24Speaker 3: Congress could simply amend Federal Statute fourteen oh one A
- 23:28Speaker 3: to deny the children of illegals or birthright tourists automatic citizenship.
- 23:32Speaker 3: That is what this bill does. And to talk about
- 23:34Speaker 3: it is the secretary of the New York State Conservative Party,
- 23:38Speaker 3: Howard Limb. Good morning, Howard, Hi, Good morning, Ken. That's
- 23:41Speaker 3: great to have you on. I know so many people
- 23:44Speaker 3: were seething mad when the Supreme Court issued its ruling,
- 23:47Speaker 3: and Americans are fundamentally fair people. When they see outsiders
- 23:51Speaker 3: coming here gaming the system, ostensibly stealing what is precious
- 23:54Speaker 3: to us, which is our citizenship, and pocketing government giveaways
- 23:57Speaker 3: in the process, it just pisses people off.
- 24:00Speaker 9: Yeah, that's right. You know, we hoped that this court
- 24:04Speaker 9: would look at the state of immigration and the birthright
- 24:09Speaker 9: citizenship process and realize that it was totally out of control.
- 24:14Speaker 9: We hope that the acts, and the one you mentioned
- 24:18Speaker 9: is not the only one that are going through Congress
- 24:21Speaker 9: will open the door to allow the Supreme Court on
- 24:25Speaker 9: a and what will probably be a new case that
- 24:29Speaker 9: will come up when this law is signed, to relook
- 24:35Speaker 9: at the facts and reverse the Barber decision which came
- 24:40Speaker 9: down a couple of weeks ago. And we believe that
- 24:44Speaker 9: Justice Kavanaugh and Justice Barrett will, with the new legislation
- 24:51Speaker 9: see fit to correct this problem.
- 24:54Speaker 3: I mean here you had basically Justice Kavanaugh giving a
- 24:58Speaker 3: sort of hint and a roadmap right on how this
- 25:00Speaker 3: could be fixed. That doesn't mean the other justices who
- 25:04Speaker 3: voted their way are going to agree with this. Correct.
- 25:08Speaker 9: Yeah, that's right, Barbara was a six to three decision,
- 25:12Speaker 9: So we need to turn around two of the justices
- 25:17Speaker 9: that said birthright citizenship is the way it's being processed
- 25:22Speaker 9: right now. We think that obviously Justice Kavanaugh, since he
- 25:29Speaker 9: included it in his concurrence, will see that the new
- 25:35Speaker 9: law opens that door. And we are very very hopeful
- 25:39Speaker 9: that Judge Barrett, if given the opportunity to hear the
- 25:45Speaker 9: Voice of Congress, which she pointed out in her decision
- 25:50Speaker 9: had not said anything about this previously, will also change
- 25:54Speaker 9: her mind.
- 25:55Speaker 3: Seven are the Voice of New York. This is the
- 25:59Speaker 3: Marx Simon Show, Ken Rosatto inframarkt on Friday, and we're
- 26:01Speaker 3: speaking to the secretary of the New York State Conservative Party,
- 26:04Speaker 3: Howard Limb. We're talking about birthright citizenship and a new
- 26:08Speaker 3: bill that was just introduced in the Senate that might
- 26:11Speaker 3: amend things and so basically make everything that was just
- 26:16Speaker 3: decided in the Supreme Court flip around again. We'll see
- 26:19Speaker 3: what happens with it. So what is different here is
- 26:21Speaker 3: that this first defines any person who enters the US
- 26:24Speaker 3: without authorization or for the purpose of engaging in birth
- 26:28Speaker 3: tourism to be considered an invader. And it says that
- 26:31Speaker 3: invaders are not entitled to have citizenship granted to any
- 26:35Speaker 3: children whom they give birth to while here. And because
- 26:38Speaker 3: the fourteenth Amendment of the Constitution does not reference invaders,
- 26:42Speaker 3: this would preemptively disqualify them. Right if you're called an invader,
- 26:47Speaker 3: the Constitution says nothing about an invader getting that citizenship.
- 26:50Speaker 3: So I guess this is the angle it would work with.
- 26:53Speaker 9: Yeah, well, well, I think lawyers will focus on the
- 26:57Speaker 9: phrase in the fourteenth Amendment says subject to the jurisdiction
- 27:02Speaker 9: of We argue that once Congress has passed these new
- 27:09Speaker 9: laws that are currently under consideration, it will define subject
- 27:15Speaker 9: to the jurisdiction of as not applying to illegals. You know,
- 27:19Speaker 9: the fourteenth Amendment only became a part of the Constitution
- 27:26Speaker 9: three years after the Civil War. It was passed entirely
- 27:30Speaker 9: because of the dread Scott decision, which took place before
- 27:34Speaker 9: the Civil War, and many would our historians would argue
- 27:38Speaker 9: that it was a primary cause of the Civil War.
- 27:40Speaker 9: Dread Scott said that blacks free, whether they were slaves
- 27:44Speaker 9: or freed slaves, could not become citizens. Shortly three years
- 27:49Speaker 9: after the Civil War, the Fourteenth Amendment in eighteen sixty
- 27:54Speaker 9: eight said that blacks were all assumed to be US
- 28:01Speaker 9: citizens and applied that law in the future to say
- 28:06Speaker 9: those born would become US citizens. People have to understand
- 28:10Speaker 9: that there was no real federal control or regulation of
- 28:15Speaker 9: immigration until eighteen ninety one. Prior to that time, you
- 28:21Speaker 9: could show up off a ship in New York and
- 28:24Speaker 9: San Francisco, and as long as a state official, not
- 28:27Speaker 9: a federal official, a state official in New York California
- 28:32Speaker 9: allowed you to step off the ship and onto the
- 28:34Speaker 9: streets of New York or San Francisco. You were in
- 28:37Speaker 9: this country legally. And there were racial policies that prevented
- 28:44Speaker 9: some people from getting off those ships. But the federal
- 28:49Speaker 9: government didn't really take control of the immigration process until
- 28:54Speaker 9: eighteen ninety one, and lo and behold. For instance, Ellis
- 28:59Speaker 9: Island was opened in eighteen ninety two. Until that time,
- 29:03Speaker 9: it was State office buildings in the Battery part of
- 29:11Speaker 9: Manhattan that processed immigration, mostly in a totally lazy fair process. Hey, Howard,
- 29:19Speaker 9: you were Can you imagine and you stepped off the
- 29:21Speaker 9: ship you were allowed to walk around.
- 29:24Speaker 3: Can you imagine today Mam Donnie's New York City? If
- 29:27Speaker 3: that were still the case, if you were from any
- 29:29Speaker 3: country but Europe, European country, you'd be allowed in. That
- 29:32Speaker 3: would be basically Mumdanni's New York City. It would be interesting.
- 29:34Speaker 9: Yeah, that's the state that we're in today.
- 29:37Speaker 3: Right, Yeah, that is certainly the case. And of course
- 29:39Speaker 3: there would be a whole new map drawn up and
- 29:41Speaker 3: it would not include certain parts of the dry state.
- 29:45Speaker 3: How do you feel? And by the way, everybody, we're
- 29:47Speaker 3: speaking to the secretary of the New York State Conservative Party,
- 29:50Speaker 3: Howard lams Is cameros Otto in for Mark today. Howard,
- 29:54Speaker 3: how do you think a this will get through the
- 29:57Speaker 3: two houses, the House and the Senate. Do you think
- 29:59Speaker 3: it has a ats of passing? And do you think
- 30:02Speaker 3: if it does pass, will it be challenged once again
- 30:05Speaker 3: before the Supreme Court.
- 30:07Speaker 9: Well, this is one of those things that I believe
- 30:10Speaker 9: we may even see some Democrats crossover, particularly those who
- 30:15Speaker 9: might be up for re election soon, and they will
- 30:19Speaker 9: support the change in the immigration law. I would hope
- 30:25Speaker 9: almost every Republican will. And then, of course we'll be
- 30:30Speaker 9: in that labyrinth of immediate lawsuits either from people who
- 30:35Speaker 9: have or do not have standing to challenge it. And unfortunately,
- 30:41Speaker 9: the way the process works, we might not actually see
- 30:46Speaker 9: the Supreme Court evaluate that new legislation for a year
- 30:51Speaker 9: and a half to two.
- 30:52Speaker 3: All right, we'll see what happens. He is the secretary
- 30:55Speaker 3: of the New York State Conservative Party, Howard Limb. We
- 30:58Speaker 3: appreciate you coming on this morning.
- 31:00Speaker 9: Thank you very much.
- 31:01Speaker 3: Hen you bet, have a good day, good weekend. It
- 31:03Speaker 3: is Ken rosotowin from Mark on your Friday. When we
- 31:06Speaker 3: come back, we will take more of your calls. The
- 31:09Speaker 3: number is one eight hundred three two one zero seven
- 31:13Speaker 3: ten one eight hundred three to two one zero seven
- 31:16Speaker 3: ten for wo R.
- 31:18Speaker 1: This is the Mark Simone show on seven ten WR
- 31:22Speaker 1: Ken from Mark today.
- 31:23Speaker 2: Here's Ken Rosatto.
- 31:25Speaker 3: We got a few minutes left. Let's go straight to
- 31:27Speaker 3: our busy phones. Let's say good morning to Will. Good
- 31:29Speaker 3: morning Will. Hello? Will you got yeah? Ignore the background, dude,
- 31:36Speaker 3: the radio is on is on delay, so just lower
- 31:39Speaker 3: the radio and you can talk to us.
- 31:41Speaker 1: Hi.
- 31:41Speaker 3: Hell are you Goodwill? Oh?
- 31:44Speaker 10: I'd just like to comment on what's going on with
- 31:46Speaker 10: this situation in Canada. Is this is going on now
- 31:50Speaker 10: three years in a row, the same time of the year.
- 31:54Speaker 10: They're doing this on purpose, and yet they blame America.
- 31:58Speaker 10: We have the lowest, the best air quality. Why don't
- 32:02Speaker 10: they point the single at China in India? But they
- 32:05Speaker 10: know what they're doing up there. Yeah, that's is set
- 32:08Speaker 10: on purpose.
- 32:08Speaker 3: Well, I don't know if it's you know, the only
- 32:10Speaker 3: the only reason why. I don't know that it's on
- 32:13Speaker 3: a purpose. If you look, it's like two thirds of
- 32:14Speaker 3: the countries on fire. So I don't know if they
- 32:16Speaker 3: would want that much to burn. You know, maybe you
- 32:19Speaker 3: put a little bit right outside Detroit, you know, sent
- 32:21Speaker 3: a little message. But you know, they have two thirds
- 32:23Speaker 3: of your country on fire. That's not a good thing.
- 32:25Speaker 3: It's a big chunk of the country. But it is
- 32:28Speaker 3: due to their own cheapness and mismanagement. Now I know,
- 32:30Speaker 3: you can't afford to thin every forest out hundreds and
- 32:33Speaker 3: hundreds of thousands of acres, if not millions of acres.
- 32:36Speaker 3: I get it. But if they just practice the simple
- 32:40Speaker 3: maintenance of the forest that they used to practice, let
- 32:43Speaker 3: the loggers come in and take their stuff and clear
- 32:46Speaker 3: out paths and whatnot. That's how you manage things. And
- 32:49Speaker 3: we still do that, so you know, that's why you
- 32:51Speaker 3: don't have wildfires except for California, the liberal states where
- 32:54Speaker 3: they refuse to do forest management. The other states that
- 32:57Speaker 3: manage their forest don't have that problem. Well, we appreciate you,
- 33:00Speaker 3: thank you for calling. We go to Bob in New Jersey. Bob,
- 33:06Speaker 3: maybe we lost Bob. All right, let's go to Jeane
- 33:08Speaker 3: on Long Island.
- 33:09Speaker 11: Jean, good morning, Yeah, good morning, Thanks for taking my call. Sure, Yeah,
- 33:15Speaker 11: just a couple of things. I was just wondering if
- 33:17Speaker 11: anybody was aware of the Communist Control Act of nineteen
- 33:20Speaker 11: fifty four to stop what's going on right now in
- 33:25Speaker 11: the government. They were supposed to be ousted or sent
- 33:29Speaker 11: to another country. Back to that country, Yeah, go ahead.
- 33:34Speaker 11: Don't know if they've ever done anything about that. But
- 33:37Speaker 11: Jack Hoover wrote a book called Masters of Deceit and
- 33:41Speaker 11: that's a great book, and it tells about what's going
- 33:44Speaker 11: on right now.
- 33:45Speaker 3: So if I could jump in only because we're short
- 33:47Speaker 3: on time, just to get to Congress actually repealed a
- 33:51Speaker 3: number of the provisions of the Communists Control Act, because
- 33:53Speaker 3: in America you get to be a part of whatever
- 33:55Speaker 3: party you want, including communists. Sadly, but back in ninety
- 33:59Speaker 3: three there was a legend admitted that just eliminated the
- 34:02Speaker 3: eviscerated much of the Communist Control Act, which is part
- 34:06Speaker 3: of the problem. And so therefore it is pretty much
- 34:10Speaker 3: legal to be a communist, which is antithetical to all
- 34:12Speaker 3: things American. But you're right, the Communist Control Act was started,
- 34:16Speaker 3: in fact, with a lot of Democrat support. It was
- 34:18Speaker 3: mostly Democrat support in order to prevent exactly what's happening
- 34:22Speaker 3: now from happening. But we appreciate your call. Thank you
- 34:25Speaker 3: so much for calling on that one. Jeane and we
- 34:27Speaker 3: go to Robert good morning.
- 34:30Speaker 11: Was I got disconnected?
- 34:31Speaker 6: I'm sorry?
- 34:32Speaker 7: How are you?
- 34:32Speaker 3: No problem? Robert, good morning? We got about a minute left.
- 34:36Speaker 11: Ken, I'm sorry to say this, but this is a
- 34:40Speaker 11: family show. Chuck Schumer, did it not fart?
- 34:44Speaker 6: He expelled?
- 34:45Speaker 3: Oh listen, listen listen, there it is. We we had
- 34:52Speaker 3: to share some of the flatulence. You're right, Robert, it
- 34:55Speaker 3: was flatulence. That is translation for fart. Anyway, we thank
- 34:59Speaker 3: you so how much for tuning in. I'm sorry, I'm
- 35:01Speaker 3: a two year old. I promise I'll never do that again.
- 35:04Speaker 3: Mark will be back in this seat Monday. Thank goodness,
- 35:06Speaker 3: because I love Mark two just like you do. And
- 35:08Speaker 3: thanks to Mark and to WR for letting me sit
- 35:11Speaker 3: in today. Is Ken Risotto, Do not go anywhere. The
