Latest / Curtis Sliwa & Larry Mendte In The Morning / Hour 3: Fraudulent voters
Transcript
- 0:00Speaker 1: Well, this week it didn't get a lot of attention,
- 0:02Speaker 1: but 28 foreign nationals were uncovered by the Trump administration,
- 0:08Speaker 1: by federal prosecutors, because they were green card holders, but
- 0:14Speaker 1: they were also registered to vote. So they found fraudulent
- 0:19Speaker 1: voter registration, and they turned it in, and they had
- 0:23Speaker 1: a press conference, and they made a big deal about it, saying,
- 0:26Speaker 1: see what we found? We found 28. And the attorney
- 0:30Speaker 1: general of the state of California laughed it off and said,
- 0:35Speaker 1: that's a drop in the bucket, as if any voter
- 0:39Speaker 1: fraud is okay. But what's worse than that is they
- 0:42Speaker 1: only looked through 20,000 voters, voter registration, only 20,000, and
- 0:48Speaker 1: they found 23. There's 23 million people in California. If
- 0:54Speaker 1: you extrapolate that, we're talking about 25,000 voters. That can
- 0:59Speaker 1: change elections. This attitude towards verifying who people are when
- 1:07Speaker 1: they vote by the Democrats is getting infuriating. Do you
- 1:12Speaker 1: know that most states require some type of voter ID?
- 1:16Speaker 1: Most states do. 36 states do. Most of them do.
- 1:21Speaker 1: Of the ones that don't require really anything is New Jersey,
- 1:26Speaker 1: New York, and California. And all of them are Democratic states,
- 1:33Speaker 1: with some of them being run by Democrats, but they
- 1:36Speaker 1: flip back and forth sometimes, like Arizona. There is just
- 1:42Speaker 1: simply no reason when every American wants this. When I
- 1:46Speaker 1: say every American, I'm talking 80 to 90 percent that
- 1:49Speaker 1: poll after poll after poll shows. They want free and
- 1:54Speaker 1: fair elections. Americans want this. And so why is the
- 1:59Speaker 1: Democratic Party so against it? I mean, in fighting the
- 2:04Speaker 1: SAVE Act, it is ridiculous. And the things they made
- 2:07Speaker 1: up that it was like Jim Crow again, it is
- 2:10Speaker 1: nothing like Jim Crow. Having somebody to show up and
- 2:14Speaker 1: prove their identity is, as a matter of fact, an
- 2:18Speaker 1: antithesis of Jim Crow, where you had to pay a
- 2:21Speaker 1: poll tax. And then women, apparently it's very difficult for women.
- 2:27Speaker 1: They're not smart enough to get their birth certificates. Come on.
- 2:31Speaker 1: This is about cheating. That's all it can be about.
- 2:35Speaker 1: There's no other reason unless the Democrats believe this is
- 2:40Speaker 1: going to benefit them. But this is just the latest
- 2:42Speaker 1: in a whole series. Oh, absolutely. We just talked about
- 2:44Speaker 1: Pennsylvania the other day. 2,400 uncovered in Lancaster County.
- 2:48Speaker 2: And New Jersey.
- 2:49Speaker 1: Yeah, New Jersey. 6,000 in New Jersey.
- 2:52Speaker 2: So you're spot on. 23 million eligible voters in California
- 2:56Speaker 2: out of a population of 40 million. That's like the
- 3:00Speaker 2: largest state, almost a little less than doubling Texas, which
- 3:04Speaker 2: is the fastest growing state. We know there are a
- 3:07Speaker 2: lot of illegal aliens in California. Los Angeles, there are
- 3:11Speaker 2: more illegal aliens than legal people. So I'm proud of
- 3:16Speaker 2: initiative and referendum. I promote that, where people get to
- 3:20Speaker 2: vote instead of the elected officials, in that case in Sacramento,
- 3:23Speaker 2: here in Albany, or New Jersey in Trenton, because the
- 3:27Speaker 2: citizens went out and got their signatures. Not an easy task.
- 3:31Speaker 2: Because the opposition tries to knock off the qualified signatures.
- 3:36Speaker 2: So on one of the propositions in California, one of
- 3:40Speaker 2: the bluest of all states, the citizens, when they go
- 3:44Speaker 2: to vote for the governor this time or the mayor
- 3:46Speaker 2: in L.A. or the other congressional districts that are up
- 3:49Speaker 2: for grabs. get to vote for an initiative and referendum,
- 3:54Speaker 2: which they're used to doing in California and Arizona. They're
- 3:57Speaker 2: the best when it comes to that, which would prohibit
- 3:59Speaker 2: citizens from voting unless they present government issue ID. Now,
- 4:04Speaker 2: we know the majority of the people in California are Democrat,
- 4:08Speaker 2: but that goes along with the national polls that say
- 4:12Speaker 2: the majority, obviously, of Republicans and, yes, even Democrats vote.
- 4:16Speaker 2: are in favor of, yeah, when you go to vote,
- 4:18Speaker 2: you should show a government ID. And when you go
- 4:22Speaker 2: to the poll, if for any reason you left it
- 4:24Speaker 2: at home, you misplaced it, they have something called an affidavit.
- 4:28Speaker 2: It's different. It's not an absentee ballot. It's not a
- 4:31Speaker 2: mail-in ballot. It's an affidavit. You fill it out there.
- 4:34Speaker 2: They put it in a special box, which they can
- 4:37Speaker 2: then check to see if, in fact, you are valid
- 4:41Speaker 2: to vote. And sometimes a lot of these very close elections...
- 4:45Speaker 2: Those affidavits can be the deciding factor.
- 4:48Speaker 1: Yes, absolutely.
- 4:48Speaker 2: So look at all these potentially neck and neck close races.
- 4:53Speaker 2: And we know some of them will end up maybe
- 4:55Speaker 2: just a few hundred votes separate the adversaries. Now, more
- 4:59Speaker 2: than ever, I'm hoping that California puts this initiative into effect,
- 5:05Speaker 2: even though the governor went out of his way and
- 5:06Speaker 2: that same attorney general who left. Oh, that's not a lot. Yeah,
- 5:10Speaker 2: he's right. It's not a lot. There's a lot more
- 5:13Speaker 2: illegal aliens voting in California. And the will of the
- 5:17Speaker 2: people prevails because the Democrats will challenge that in court.
- 5:21Speaker 2: They'll try to tie it up in that. I've always
- 5:24Speaker 2: said the people united will never be defeated. I know
- 5:27Speaker 2: that's like a left wing turn, but I believe that
- 5:29Speaker 2: because the people there in California have had it, including Democrats.
- 5:34Speaker 1: Yeah, I agree with you. I'm also really fascinated about
- 5:37Speaker 1: New Jersey because you'll remember when Mikey Sherrod, I'm glad
- 5:40Speaker 1: you brought that up. When Mikey Sherrill came out and
- 5:43Speaker 1: said there was 6,600 erroneously registered voters, people who shouldn't
- 5:49Speaker 1: be in the country, who were registered to vote. And
- 5:53Speaker 1: then she said, and yes, this has been around for
- 5:56Speaker 1: the last two elections and nobody caught it. And so
- 6:00Speaker 1: she's done her job in trying to fix that up.
- 6:03Speaker 1: I will give her credit for that, that she said
- 6:06Speaker 1: it and that she's been trying to fix it. But
- 6:09Speaker 1: then the federal government said, well, that's really interesting. Can
- 6:12Speaker 1: we see all your voter rolls? Because we'd like to
- 6:15Speaker 1: go through them. And she took them to court. She said, no,
- 6:19Speaker 1: absolutely not. You can't see our voter rolls. Now, why?
- 6:24Speaker 1: Why can't the federal government look at your voter rolls?
- 6:26Speaker 1: So this is in court right now. And this is
- 6:28Speaker 1: going to be a huge court case, by the way,
- 6:31Speaker 1: because if they get the right to look at New
- 6:34Speaker 1: Jersey's voter rolls, that's especially if it goes to the
- 6:37Speaker 1: Supreme Court. They'll be able to do that across the country.
- 6:40Speaker 2: Incredibly imperative that we know that when the vote is
- 6:45Speaker 2: being cast, it's only people eligible. Now, will there be
- 6:48Speaker 2: an occasional one or two or three who'll get through?
- 6:51Speaker 1: Yeah, of course.
- 6:52Speaker 2: But let's face it, California, which is flush with illegal aliens,
- 6:57Speaker 2: and the Democrats are encouraging them to register because, look,
- 7:00Speaker 2: all you got to do is show up with a
- 7:01Speaker 2: Verizon bill. You don't have to show up with, I
- 7:04Speaker 2: get a Verizon bill at, you know, Sepulveda here, 2042
- 7:08Speaker 2: Sepulveda in the San Fernando. It's all you need.
- 7:11Speaker 3: Come on.
- 7:13Speaker 2: Most illegals are not going to go and vote, but
- 7:16Speaker 2: enough could turn an election.
- 7:18Speaker 1: Absolutely. Absolutely. Especially some local elections, especially some congressional elections.
- 7:23Speaker 1: I mean, the vote totals are pretty big when it
- 7:25Speaker 1: comes to the statewide elections and the federal elections. But
- 7:28Speaker 1: at a congressional election, it can be 100-some votes. It
- 7:31Speaker 1: can be really close. Oh, sure, it's happened time and
- 7:34Speaker 1: time again. So, no, you're absolutely right. I still remember
- 7:37Speaker 1: the first time I was in a state that you
- 7:41Speaker 1: couldn't show your voter ID. And I went to vote,
- 7:44Speaker 1: and I took out my license. You'd think I pulled
- 7:47Speaker 1: a gun. The way they reacted. They said, oh, no, no, no, no, no, no.
- 7:51Speaker 2: You're right.
- 7:51Speaker 1: No, please put that away. You're right.
- 7:54Speaker 2: So if you go, no matter where you're listening to this,
- 7:57Speaker 2: because we have a nationwide impact, WOR710, so powerful a
- 8:02Speaker 2: signal and also on the stream. You go in there,
- 8:06Speaker 2: and if they give you a hard time, demand an
- 8:08Speaker 2: affidavit ballot because they're not going to resolve it there,
- 8:11Speaker 2: especially if you go on the day of the vote.
- 8:14Speaker 2: It's a little too crowded. You fill out the affidavit ballot.
- 8:18Speaker 2: They put it in a special box. It will be counted,
- 8:22Speaker 2: especially if it's a neck-and-neck race, but it will be
- 8:24Speaker 2: counted afterwards. They just have to check if you don't
- 8:28Speaker 2: have the, a lot of times people, I forgot. Okay.
- 8:31Speaker 2: You fill out the affidavit, demand that it's not an
- 8:34Speaker 2: absentee ballot. It's not a mail-in ballot. It's called an
- 8:37Speaker 2: affidavit because you got to swear to it. You know,
- 8:40Speaker 2: right there. I am the person that I claim to
- 8:42Speaker 2: be with potential penalties. If in fact you're proven to
- 8:46Speaker 2: be a fugazi.
- 8:47Speaker 1: Several of these cases right now that we've been talking
- 8:50Speaker 1: about are headed towards through the court systems and headed
- 8:53Speaker 1: towards the Supreme court. please pay attention to them. In
- 8:57Speaker 1: the past, anything that has to do with voting, the
- 9:00Speaker 1: Supreme Court has sided with the states because, you know,
- 9:03Speaker 1: in the Constitution, it says anything that's not explicitly given
- 9:07Speaker 1: to the federal government goes to the states, and they
- 9:10Speaker 1: didn't say anything about voting and how to vote, so
- 9:13Speaker 1: the states get that. However, I'm really interested when it
- 9:17Speaker 1: comes to federal elections because you would think that the
- 9:21Speaker 1: federal government should, that's under their purview, And I would
- 9:24Speaker 1: think that the federal government would have some say in
- 9:28Speaker 1: the federal elections. So I want to know why no
- 9:32Speaker 1: one in a lawsuit has separated the two, because I
- 9:35Speaker 1: believe if you separate federal elections, you might be able
- 9:39Speaker 1: to get it done. You might be able to get
- 9:41Speaker 1: it up to the Supreme Court and have them side
- 9:43Speaker 1: with you. I mean, it's really a Hail Mary, I'll
- 9:46Speaker 1: tell you the truth, because in the past they have
- 9:48Speaker 1: not done it.
- 9:49Speaker 2: You can make that argument according to the Constitution. You know,
- 9:53Speaker 2: state rights prevail. Okay, got it. Pennsylvania does its own thing.
- 9:58Speaker 2: You know, California does its own thing. own thing. Some
- 10:01Speaker 2: clearly are very effective. Others give you a pause to think,
- 10:06Speaker 2: is there corruption going on? Especially when they're counting mail-in
- 10:10Speaker 2: ballots everywhere. 10 days later. And they don't let anybody in.
- 10:14Speaker 2: How about that in Atlanta and in Philadelphia?
- 10:18Speaker 1: Oh, no, you can't come in. You can't take a
- 10:20Speaker 1: look at this.
- 10:20Speaker 2: And in this very contentious election in Michigan, which we
- 10:24Speaker 2: talked about earlier in the 7 o'clock hour, Wayne County,
- 10:28Speaker 2: which incorporates Detroit, where most of the votes are, has
- 10:32Speaker 2: a history of ballot corruption. It's controlled by the Democratic machine. So, yeah,
- 10:38Speaker 2: let's hope that in California... It prevails, that ballot initiative,
- 10:42Speaker 2: because if it could prevail in a blue state like California,
- 10:46Speaker 2: so overwhelmingly blue, where even Democrats and independents cross that
- 10:51Speaker 2: marginal line and say, no, the Republicans are absolutely right.
- 10:54Speaker 2: The majority of the people in the United States want
- 10:58Speaker 2: to prohibit people from voting who do not present a
- 11:02Speaker 2: government issue I.D. And there are other alternatives if, in fact,
- 11:06Speaker 2: you show up and you don't have that government I.D.
- 11:10Speaker 1: When we come back, well, there was this great hope,
- 11:13Speaker 1: this great hope that Amelia Earhart, the mystery of what
- 11:17Speaker 1: happened to her, was finally solved. Well, doesn't sound like
- 11:22Speaker 1: it's going to. And giant crabs may be the reason.
- 11:27Speaker 1: We'll explain when we come back. Plus a chance to
- 11:29Speaker 1: see Journey next. Now, you may have heard a lot
- 11:33Speaker 1: over the last few weeks about the spotting of Amelia
- 11:38Speaker 1: Earhart's plane. It was satellite imagery of something that looked
- 11:42Speaker 1: like a plane. When you looked at the imagery, off
- 11:45Speaker 1: of a remote island that they believe she crashed on. Remember,
- 11:51Speaker 1: she had this ambitious goal way back in 1937 to
- 11:55Speaker 1: become the first female pilot to circle the globe. And
- 11:59Speaker 1: she was to land on an island, and this one
- 12:02Speaker 1: is near it, where she was going to refuel, and
- 12:05Speaker 1: this remote island is near it. So it all made sense.
- 12:08Speaker 1: But now the expedition that went there said, no, the
- 12:12Speaker 1: material that they saw from the satellite imagery is washed away.
- 12:16Speaker 1: They believe it was just trees, and it looked like
- 12:19Speaker 1: a plane. But they still believe she may have gone
- 12:24Speaker 1: onto that island. And the theory is... that she and
- 12:29Speaker 1: another person went on that island, and that was her navigator,
- 12:34Speaker 1: Fred Noonan, went on that island, and listen to this,
- 12:38Speaker 1: that they were consumed, they were eaten by giant crabs. Now,
- 12:45Speaker 1: if you think to yourself, what are giant crabs? How
- 12:47Speaker 1: big can the crabs be? You can go to 710WOR,
- 12:51Speaker 1: we have video of one of these crabs. Now, imagine
- 12:53Speaker 1: hundreds of them, There are huge crabs with big claws.
- 12:58Speaker 1: And on the island, they have found the bones, the
- 13:02Speaker 1: remains of 13 people. So the mystery continues. The navigation continues.
- 13:10Speaker 1: But I agree with Natalie. This is a movie in
- 13:14Speaker 1: the making. Whether that theory is true or not, the
- 13:18Speaker 1: idea of giant crabs that can eat you That's a
- 13:22Speaker 1: horror movie waiting to be made.
- 13:23Speaker 2: Absolutely. I mean, usually we're eating the crabs.
- 13:26Speaker 1: It's a lot of work. It's a lot of work
- 13:29Speaker 1: to eat a crab.
- 13:30Speaker 2: It's not a lot of payoff.
- 13:31Speaker 4: I know.
- 13:32Speaker 1: And the people that get the buckets of Maryland crabs
- 13:34Speaker 1: and then eat them.
- 13:36Speaker 5: I do it every year.
- 13:37Speaker 2: You do it too? We go crabbing. Oh, don't tell Nancy. Shh. Oh, man. Well,
- 13:43Speaker 2: she doesn't listen to us. She listens to Elvis Duran, Z100.
- 13:47Speaker 2: She grew up with them. I want Nancy to like me.
- 13:50Speaker 2: Remember the 50s B-grade movies? You know, they were so bad,
- 13:55Speaker 2: but they were so good you wanted to watch. Invasion
- 13:59Speaker 2: of the giant flesh-eating crabs.
- 14:02Speaker 1: Oh, they got off the island. They got onto a
- 14:05Speaker 1: boat and got off the island and made it to L.A.
- 14:07Speaker 2: The coconut crabs.
- 14:08Speaker 1: There you go.
- 14:08Speaker 5: And the coconut crabs sound so cute until you see it.
- 14:12Speaker 1: Well, the giant part.
- 14:13Speaker 6: Yeah.
- 14:13Speaker 1: The giant coconut crabs.
- 14:15Speaker 2: Let me give credit to the only one here Monday
- 14:17Speaker 2: through Friday who does more than a three-hour shift. Every
- 14:20Speaker 2: show is three hours. George Nooney.
- 14:24Speaker 6: Looney.
- 14:24Speaker 2: Nooney. Some call him Looney. Coast to coast at night.
- 14:29Speaker 2: It's 1 to 6. I listen from time to time
- 14:32Speaker 2: when I'm doing the show prep starting at about 1.30,
- 14:34Speaker 2: 2 o'clock in the morning. He's covered this. The disappearance
- 14:38Speaker 2: of Amelia Earhart. Every conceivable conspiracy involving that. And yeah,
- 14:45Speaker 2: he even had the giant flesh-eating crabs. I keep watching
- 14:50Speaker 2: this video. I've got to stop that. That's freaking me out.
- 14:52Speaker 1: Let's get to some talkbacks.
- 14:53Speaker 4: I'd like to thank Natalie Migliore for interviewing the white, liberal,
- 14:59Speaker 4: insufferably ignorant women in New York City who voted for Hochul.
- 15:05Speaker 4: It's absolutely incredible how ignorant they are.
- 15:10Speaker 1: Curtis, would you like to comment?
- 15:12Speaker 2: That ain't going to help Bruce Blakeman. If there is
- 15:15Speaker 2: one area that Hochul has an advantage, it's with women.
- 15:19Speaker 2: And Bruce Blakeman is making strides because he is pro-choice.
- 15:24Speaker 2: He's always been pro-choice. You wouldn't want to call them ignorant.
- 15:28Speaker 2: You would just say they haven't been exposed enough to
- 15:31Speaker 2: Bruce Blakeman, who is a much improved candidate now.
- 15:35Speaker 1: Hi, this is Natalie Migliore coming to you live from
- 15:39Speaker 1: the annual Karen Convention right here in New York City.
- 15:43Speaker 1: That is crazy.
- 15:47Speaker 2: Is she going to get a secret radio? Say, how
- 15:51Speaker 2: do you know I'm a real.
- 15:53Speaker 7: Person and not some avatar or robotic voice?
- 15:58Speaker 2: We don't.
- 15:59Speaker 1: Yeah, but the robotic voices are awful. You can always tell.
- 16:03Speaker 1: You really can tell. That's how you can tell the
- 16:05Speaker 1: fakes online.
- 16:06Speaker 8: You know, for a while, we were all walking encyclopedia
- 16:10Speaker 8: Britannicas because of Google. We could answer any question at
- 16:15Speaker 8: our fingertips. But now, with AI, we're becoming walking Ripley's
- 16:21Speaker 8: Believe It or Not. Whom do you trust?
- 16:24Speaker 6: Wow.
- 16:25Speaker 1: That was good.
- 16:26Speaker 2: He might win the sheet crane radio. Ripley's Believe It
- 16:29Speaker 2: or Not with AI.
- 16:31Speaker 1: I think that was George Norrie. Now, Daria Albinger with
- 16:34Speaker 1: the 830 News. Daria.
- 16:35Speaker 2: Morning, guys.
- 16:36Speaker 7: Bright, cool, and breezy today. We'll see a high of
- 16:39Speaker 7: 66 degrees. Police say road rage may be behind last
- 16:43Speaker 7: night's deadly drive-by shooting on the GWB. It led to
- 16:46Speaker 7: a crash, which tied up traffic in the Jersey-bound lanes
- 16:49Speaker 7: for hours. Officers say the victim had a gunshot wound
- 16:51Speaker 7: to the head when he was pulled from the vehicle. Well,
- 16:54Speaker 7: in this case, the check was not in the mail
- 16:56Speaker 7: because postal inspectors say the mail carrier swiped it.
- 17:00Speaker 5: Brooklyn District Attorney Eric Gonzalez announced on Monday that 41-year-old
- 17:04Speaker 5: Nicole Bernard and a second employee only identified as Hazard
- 17:08Speaker 5: were arraigned on two separate indictments for allegedly stealing a
- 17:11Speaker 5: total of nearly $ 15, 000. Some of the charges the two
- 17:15Speaker 5: are facing include grand larceny and possession of a forged instrument.
- 17:20Speaker 5: Both suspects were released without bail and are due back
- 17:22Speaker 5: in court in December. I'm Lizzie Radabali, WOR News.
- 17:26Speaker 7: A new report says Elon Musk ordered the Starlink satellite slowdown,
- 17:29Speaker 7: which impacted the Ukrainian military last week. The Wall Street
- 17:32Speaker 7: Journal is reporting that Musk, who owns Starlink, capped the
- 17:35Speaker 7: speeds at which Ukrainian hardware could stay connected to the network,
- 17:38Speaker 7: and that crippled some drones. The report also says Musk
- 17:41Speaker 7: discussed it with President Trump. Well, the president will be
- 17:44Speaker 7: back on the campaign trail again today. He's traveling to
- 17:46Speaker 7: South Carolina with less than two weeks to go to
- 17:48Speaker 7: the midterms. If you are going to set sail on
- 17:51Speaker 7: vacation next year, you're not alone. The AAA is predicting
- 17:55Speaker 7: a record 22 million Americans will go on a cruise
- 17:59Speaker 7: and you will pay more than passengers ever have before.
- 18:02Speaker 1: Especially on one line.
- 18:03Speaker 3: Carnival Cruise Lines is facing criticism for using so-called dynamic
- 18:07Speaker 3: pricing to charge for add-ons like beverage packages and Wi-Fi plans.
- 18:11Speaker 3: Prices will vary based on the itinerary and season. Carnival
- 18:14Speaker 3: says these enhancements give guests greater flexibility and more options
- 18:18Speaker 3: for tailoring their Carnival vacation experience.
- 18:21Speaker 7: That's ABC's Sophie Flay. The Knicks lost to Philadelphia. The
- 18:24Speaker 7: Nets opened their season tonight against Charlotte. The Devils and
- 18:27Speaker 7: the Islanders won. Next news, 9 o'clock bulletins at once.

- 18:54Speaker 2: of the state of New York, joined. Oh yeah, Blakeman,
- 18:58Speaker 2: his campaign talking about fracking for natural gas will bring
- 19:03Speaker 2: energy bills down. He couldn't be more hopelessly correct.
- 19:08Speaker 1: I'll tell you what, these stories happen every week. A
- 19:10Speaker 1: five-year-old girl's life was saved. When she was choking, she
- 19:15Speaker 1: apparently inhaled a rock and they couldn't save her. This
- 19:20Speaker 1: is in Michigan. And they tried everything and first responders
- 19:23Speaker 1: showed up and luckily they had a life vac in
- 19:26Speaker 1: the car. And they saved her life. They dislodged the rock.
- 19:31Speaker 1: It was easy once they got the life back. And
- 19:35Speaker 1: now they're going to require them at all schools in Michigan.
- 19:38Speaker 1: It's going up through the legislature there. I'm not sure
- 19:41Speaker 1: why it doesn't happen here because, you know, in a
- 19:44Speaker 1: situation like that, seconds matter. That's why I want to
- 19:48Speaker 1: tell you about lifepoints. It's the first and only FDA-authorized
- 19:53Speaker 1: suction anti-choking device to be used for second-line treatment when
- 19:57Speaker 1: recommended choking protocols have been followed without success. LifeVac has
- 20:03Speaker 1: helped save over 6,500 lives worldwide, and we're hearing these
- 20:08Speaker 1: stories every single day. Real families, real people getting second
- 20:13Speaker 1: chances because people are prepared. Are you? Well, go to LifeVac.net.
- 20:19Speaker 1: That's LifeVac.net. You just visit LifeVac.net, and you can see
- 20:24Speaker 1: how you are going to be ready, and your family
- 20:26Speaker 1: will be ready when it counts. Bruce Blakeman, Curtis and
- 20:31Speaker 1: I both agree, when he started his run for governor,
- 20:34Speaker 1: he stumbled coming out of the block. But man, has
- 20:38Speaker 1: he found his stride now. I think he was excellent.
- 20:42Speaker 1: I think he easily won that debate, the only debate
- 20:45Speaker 1: they had. And now his message over and over and
- 20:50Speaker 1: over again are energy costs. Because there's no way she
- 20:55Speaker 1: gets out of this. 48 times! 48 times she has
- 21:00Speaker 1: raised energy rates. And Bruce Blakeman says he hears it
- 21:04Speaker 1: all the time. People are really suffering.
- 21:07Speaker 2: As I walk down the street here, people are telling
- 21:09Speaker 2: me wherever I go, how expensive their utility bills are.
- 21:14Speaker 1: We've got to get back to common sense. Yeah, common sense.
- 21:17Speaker 1: It's an easy fix. I've lived in state after state
- 21:19Speaker 1: after state where they've had natural gas pipelines, where they've
- 21:22Speaker 1: had fracking. You know what they don't have? High taxes.
- 21:26Speaker 1: You know what they don't have? High energy rates. And
- 21:30Speaker 1: that's what he wants to do here. He came out
- 21:33Speaker 1: of the box saying, let's do fracking.
- 21:35Speaker 6: We could start fracking tomorrow on the southern tier in
- 21:39Speaker 6: New York. We've got one of the largest natural gas
- 21:41Speaker 6: reserves in the world. Increase our energy supply by a
- 21:45Speaker 6: tremendous level and cut our utility bills in half.
- 21:49Speaker 1: By the way, Hochul blames everything on Trump. All your
- 21:53Speaker 1: energy costs went up because of Trump. That is an
- 21:56Speaker 1: absolute lie. It didn't happen in this state. It was
- 21:59Speaker 1: solely because of her and her green policies. And the
- 22:03Speaker 1: only thing she can say about Bruce Blakeman is, oh,
- 22:07Speaker 1: my God, it is going to be like Armageddon.
- 22:11Speaker 9: Picture his vision for New York. Hyperscale data centers all
- 22:15Speaker 9: over New York State. Smokestacks building out of fossil fuel
- 22:20Speaker 9: generated power plants, as well as oil rigs and fracking
- 22:25Speaker 9: rigs everywhere.
- 22:27Speaker 2: I love it. Facking with natural gas, out of all
- 22:32Speaker 2: the possible fossil fuels that you could use that is
- 22:36Speaker 2: the least, gives out the least amount of pollution, is
- 22:40Speaker 2: natural gas. Everybody knows that. She's lumping it all in
- 22:43Speaker 2: as if they're burning coal down at the border in
- 22:45Speaker 2: New York State with Pennsylvania.
- 22:47Speaker 1: Yeah, you're born and raised in Pennsylvania. Been through a
- 22:50Speaker 1: lot of governors because I always pay attention to what's
- 22:54Speaker 1: going on. I've been through a lot of governors. This
- 22:57Speaker 1: has been an issue for decades. Natural gas. There's this
- 23:00Speaker 1: huge supply, just like New York. There is a huge
- 23:03Speaker 1: supply of natural gas. A Republican governor gets in, they frack.
- 23:08Speaker 1: A Democratic governor gets in, they put a moratorium on it.
- 23:12Speaker 1: And then when they put a moratorium on, energy costs
- 23:15Speaker 1: go up and prices go up and taxes go up.
- 23:19Speaker 1: It happened two or three times. Now we have a
- 23:22Speaker 1: Democratic governor in Josh Shapiro. And Josh Shapiro said, nope,
- 23:28Speaker 1: fracking is good with me. And he has not raised taxes.
- 23:32Speaker 1: Energy rates have dropped. See, because not only do you
- 23:36Speaker 1: use the natural gas in your homes around Pennsylvania, but
- 23:39Speaker 1: you've set up pipelines and you're sending the natural gas
- 23:43Speaker 1: out and you're selling it. And the taxes that come
- 23:46Speaker 1: in are a gold mine to the state of Pennsylvania.
- 23:52Speaker 1: And so you don't have to get increased taxes. That's
- 23:55Speaker 1: what you're looking at with natural gas in New York.
- 23:58Speaker 1: And so if you were going to vote on one
- 24:00Speaker 1: issue in New York, I think that should be your issue. Oh, absolutely.
- 24:03Speaker 2: And look, when it came to nuclear power, she had
- 24:07Speaker 2: to inherit and to evilize Cuomo shutting down Indian Point.
- 24:11Speaker 2: And it takes a while to build a nuclear power plant.
- 24:13Speaker 2: Got it. But natural gas, she could have gone right
- 24:16Speaker 2: into fracking because, again, it was Andrew Evil Eyes Cuomo.
- 24:19Speaker 1: No fracking.
- 24:21Speaker 2: You go along the shale area there in the southern
- 24:23Speaker 2: border between Pennsylvania, it's like on one side people are
- 24:27Speaker 2: driving new cars. Their homes are assessed at a higher
- 24:31Speaker 2: level than even New York State. Parts of that southern
- 24:35Speaker 2: shale look like Appalachia upstate. You know, where people have
- 24:38Speaker 2: just vacated. No jobs, no income, no taxable properties. They'll
- 24:45Speaker 2: come in and they'll frack and they'll pay you money
- 24:47Speaker 2: on your property. And you all of a sudden, it's
- 24:50Speaker 2: worth that much money? It's almost like, remember the Beverly Hillbillies?
- 24:53Speaker 2: He goes out, he shoots black gold. There it is.
- 24:57Speaker 2: Next stop, Beverly Hills. I will tell you this much.
- 25:01Speaker 2: My dad explained to me fracking, because obviously... Merchant seaman,
- 25:05Speaker 2: a lot of years, the 50 years he was on
- 25:07Speaker 2: oil tankers, he goes, you know, when Bush left Connecticut
- 25:11Speaker 2: and went down the wildcat with a lot of other
- 25:13Speaker 2: people in the 30s and 40s, that's what they were doing.
- 25:17Speaker 2: They were buying old wells that they thought had dried
- 25:20Speaker 2: up because they couldn't afford a new well, you know,
- 25:23Speaker 2: only the big companies sent. And they would frack. Fracking
- 25:27Speaker 2: has been going on in Oklahoma and Texas since the
- 25:30Speaker 2: tail end of the Depression. So we act here like, oh, fracking,
- 25:34Speaker 2: it's going to cause earthquakes, and then all of a
- 25:36Speaker 2: sudden it's going to poison the water. That's nonsense. And
- 25:39Speaker 2: Pennsylvania is a perfect example of that.
- 25:41Speaker 6: Right.
- 25:42Speaker 1: And even Mikey Sherrill now says she will get a
- 25:45Speaker 1: pipeline from Pennsylvania because she needs to bring down energy costs.
- 25:49Speaker 1: She made that her goal. She said that in the campaign,
- 25:52Speaker 1: made that a promise. So she's talking about building a
- 25:55Speaker 1: pipeline into New Jersey to get natural gas from Pennsylvania.
- 25:59Speaker 1: You don't even need a pipeline here. You could have
- 26:01Speaker 1: a pipeline that sends natural gas out to other states
- 26:05Speaker 1: and make a fortune out of it. It is insane. Insane.
- 26:11Speaker 1: By the way, think back of the most recent fracking
- 26:14Speaker 1: accidents because they say it's unsafe. There hasn't been one.
- 26:18Speaker 1: It doesn't happen. That was all bogus. That documentary, do
- 26:22Speaker 1: you remember the documentary where the person started the faucet
- 26:26Speaker 1: and flames came out?
- 26:27Speaker 2: That's right.
- 26:28Speaker 1: That was made up. That was completely made up. That
- 26:31Speaker 1: was propaganda. That wasn't a documentary. And they've been suffering.
- 26:36Speaker 1: The industry has been suffering because of that ever since.
- 26:39Speaker 1: None of that was true. Nothing in that documentary was true.
- 26:44Speaker 1: It's been proven to be bogus.
- 26:45Speaker 2: It won awards.
- 26:46Speaker 1: They've taken the awards back.
- 26:48Speaker 2: As you said, Larry, just go down near the southern border,
- 26:51Speaker 2: the shale line, which goes into Pennsylvania and New York.
- 26:55Speaker 2: Go from one side of the border to the other.
- 26:59Speaker 2: It's like night and day. Trailer parks on the New
- 27:01Speaker 2: York State side, houses in disrepair, a lot of the
- 27:05Speaker 2: people fleeing down to Florida, Texas, South Carolina. You look
- 27:09Speaker 2: to Pennsylvania and say, you're going to sell your house?
- 27:12Speaker 2: Are you kidding? This is a gold mine here. I'm
- 27:15Speaker 2: not going in. Well, what about the winters? Doesn't matter.
- 27:18Speaker 2: Life is great here.
- 27:20Speaker 1: Yeah, but not only do the people, and they do
- 27:22Speaker 1: get rich, not only do the people get rich that
- 27:25Speaker 1: are in that area, but the whole state.
- 27:27Speaker 6: Yes.
- 27:27Speaker 1: The whole state profits. So New York City would profit.
- 27:31Speaker 1: Your energy bills would go way down. If you wanted
- 27:34Speaker 1: one reason to vote for Bruce Blakeman, even if you're
- 27:37Speaker 1: a Democrat, this is the reason. Because it's going to
- 27:40Speaker 1: save you a lot of money and it eliminates the
- 27:42Speaker 1: need for future taxes.
- 27:44Speaker 2: Look, people open up their energy bills. You remember that day,
- 27:47Speaker 2: Astorino and I opened up our energy bills on the
- 27:50Speaker 2: very same day and our eyeballs fell out of our sockets.
- 27:54Speaker 2: I don't care if you're a Democrat, Republican, or independent,
- 27:57Speaker 2: whether you're a business owner, property owner, or a tenant.
- 28:00Speaker 2: Your energy bill's here because only 30% of your energy
- 28:04Speaker 2: bill that you pay goes to pay for the energy.
- 28:08Speaker 2: The other 70% is in fees and taxes. Just completely outrageous.
- 28:14Speaker 2: She could have changed that. She decided to add on
- 28:17Speaker 2: to the misery that Andrew Evil Eyes Como gave us.
- 28:20Speaker 1: Well... Curtis was the first person to come up with
- 28:24Speaker 1: the idea for vintage-style electric carriages. And guess who's stealing
- 28:29Speaker 1: that idea now? We'll tell you when we come back. Curtis,
- 28:34Speaker 1: what a great idea this is, huh? City Council Councilwoman
- 28:38Speaker 1: Vicki Palladino is going to have a news conference today
- 28:42Speaker 1: at noon because listen to this idea.
- 28:43Speaker 2: It's brilliant. Yeah.
- 28:45Speaker 1: To support a transition to vintage-style electric horseless carriages, to
- 28:51Speaker 1: get rid of the horse-drawn carriages and supplant them with
- 28:56Speaker 1: vintage-style electric horseless carriages. Great idea.
- 29:02Speaker 2: Gee, I had that one in 2021 when I ran
- 29:04Speaker 2: against Eric Adams. Remember the Chitty Bang Bang cars? Dick
- 29:08Speaker 2: Van Dyke, I remember, 1968, great movie. A philanthropist down
- 29:12Speaker 2: in Florida owned a whole collection of them. He said, look,
- 29:16Speaker 2: I'll donate it. It won't even cost anything. They all
- 29:19Speaker 2: said no, no, no. Wait a second.
- 29:21Speaker 1: If it's your idea, you're invited to this, right? You're
- 29:23Speaker 1: going today at noon to be there? Uh, what? You're
- 29:27Speaker 1: not invited?
- 29:27Speaker 2: I haven't been invited to the vote that takes place Thursday.
- 29:31Speaker 2: I haven't been invited to the rally that takes place
- 29:34Speaker 2: before that. You say to yourself, remember my last appearance,
- 29:38Speaker 2: they pulled the microphone away. away from me after I
- 29:41Speaker 2: gave the spiel how you have to end this barbaric industry.
- 29:44Speaker 2: Claire Shulman, the city councilwoman hosting the meeting. I'm the
- 29:48Speaker 2: choice of the people on this. They all know, hey,
- 29:50Speaker 2: Curtis was in the forefront. They've all forgotten they moved on.
- 29:53Speaker 2: This is typical politics. You know, try to take credit
- 29:57Speaker 2: for something as opposed to saying, you know, this idea
- 30:01Speaker 2: came from Curtis Sleeve a while back when he was
- 30:03Speaker 2: running for mayor in 2021.
- 30:04Speaker 1: That's so stupid because it makes you look better as
- 30:07Speaker 1: a politician when you can bring somebody up and say,
- 30:10Speaker 1: we want to praise this person for doing this.
- 30:12Speaker 2: It's dumb.
- 30:12Speaker 1: It's stupid. It's egotistical, but it eats away at your
- 30:16Speaker 1: at your reputation.
- 30:17Speaker 2: Well, I had a agreement with Vicky Palladino because she
- 30:20Speaker 2: got a great Republican club in Whitestone. I knew she
- 30:23Speaker 2: was sympathetic to the carriage driver, so I never brought
- 30:25Speaker 2: it up. I was the first to endorse her when
- 30:28Speaker 2: the Republican Party turned against her when she was running
- 30:32Speaker 2: for council. And they said to me, you'll never be
- 30:35Speaker 2: you'll never win the GOP. Not in 2021 against Eric.
- 30:39Speaker 2: That's a drop dead. I'm endorsing her. But this is
- 30:42Speaker 2: true of the Democrats and Republicans. Zoran Mandami came on
- 30:46Speaker 2: board at the end of this recent campaign. You think
- 30:48Speaker 2: he'll say, well, you know, Curtis was an inspiration. No.
- 30:52Speaker 2: Julie Manning. You think he'll say, well, you know, Curtis
- 30:54Speaker 2: took the slings and arrows on this and really pushed
- 30:58Speaker 2: this as a priority of his platform. No. They're not
- 31:02Speaker 2: even inviting me to the rally in City Hall Park
- 31:05Speaker 2: or when they do the vote. You know, first they
- 31:07Speaker 2: have the debate, but it's a fait accompli. They already
- 31:10Speaker 2: have the vote.
- 31:10Speaker 1: Well, let me tell you something. We can write this
- 31:12Speaker 1: wrong because we know Vicky Palladino. Vicky Palladino has been
- 31:16Speaker 1: a friend of the show, and we talk to Vicky
- 31:19Speaker 1: every week there for a while. And I'm sure this
- 31:22Speaker 1: was just an oversight. So, Vicki, if you're listening or
- 31:26Speaker 1: this message gets to you, if they invited you at
- 31:28Speaker 1: this point, would you go?
- 31:29Speaker 2: No, because those carriage horse owners and drivers hate me.
- 31:33Speaker 2: You saw that recent video that got a million hits.
- 31:36Speaker 2: You'll never be mayor!
- 31:38Speaker 1: Oh, that's right.
- 31:39Speaker 2: When I was drinking from the trough, I'd say, you
- 31:42Speaker 2: let these horses drink from their swill? A lot of
- 31:46Speaker 2: people were amazed that I'm even alive now after drinking
- 31:49Speaker 2: that swill.
- 31:49Speaker 1: All right, Vicki, here you go. So he's not going
- 31:51Speaker 1: to go, but you need to give him credit.
- 31:54Speaker 2: Yes.
- 31:55Speaker 1: You need to give him credit for this today. Because
- 31:58Speaker 1: I know you're a stand-up person. I know you like Curtis.
- 32:01Speaker 1: And I think this idea is tremendous. But give credit
- 32:05Speaker 1: where credit is due. And I think she will.
- 32:07Speaker 2: Thank you. And then tomorrow, they're having a rally in
- 32:10Speaker 2: City Hall Park, 12 noon. Do you think I'm invited?
- 32:13Speaker 6: No.
- 32:14Speaker 2: And then when they do the debate and vote, do
- 32:16Speaker 2: you think I'm invited to sit up there in a
- 32:18Speaker 2: peanut gallery and watch an effort that I prioritized in
- 32:22Speaker 2: my campaign, got made fun of, editorially attacked over and over?
- 32:27Speaker 6: No.
- 32:28Speaker 2: I'm a person of no consequence to them. That's why
- 32:30Speaker 2: I don't trust any politicians. Well, let's write one wrong
- 32:33Speaker 2: at a time. We'll deal with this one. Then the
- 32:36Speaker 2: next time, we'll do something else. But we'll work on this.
- 32:40Speaker 2: None of this happens. I'll be hanging out with my
- 32:42Speaker 2: buddies in Central Park, talking to all the horses like
- 32:46Speaker 2: I do every time I'm in Central Park. And people
- 32:48Speaker 2: think I'm a sugar box. I'm actually having a conversation.
- 32:52Speaker 1: Okay. And you're there at all hours because you don't sleep.
- 32:56Speaker 1: As we know, we talked about some people like Curtis
- 33:01Speaker 1: who work well even with little sleep. The talkback of
- 33:04Speaker 1: the morning and winner of the Curtis Lee win, Larry
- 33:06Speaker 1: Menti in the morning t-shirt, and now in the running
- 33:09Speaker 1: for the talkback of the week who will win a
- 33:12Speaker 1: C-Crane radio is a listener who might be more energized
- 33:17Speaker 1: than Curtis without sleep.
- 33:19Speaker 10: You talk about fatigue.
- 33:20Speaker 1: I have the opposite.
- 33:22Speaker 10: I am quite like Curtis. The most hours of sleep
- 33:26Speaker 10: I can get, barring any crazy nightly activity, is about
- 33:30Speaker 10: four to five hours. That's why I call you up
- 33:32Speaker 10: so amped up, so ready to go right away. I
- 33:35Speaker 10: am telling you, if I get four hours of sleep,
- 33:38Speaker 10: I'm lucky.
- 33:38Speaker 1: I'm like, whoa, deep sleep. Hey, have a great show, guys.
- 33:44Speaker 10: Woo!
