  Speaker 1: The Mark simonshell delivering the news before it is on
• 0:04
  Speaker 1: seventy ten.
• 0:05
  Speaker 2: Wr Hey, finally a beautiful Sonny eighty degree dude. Today,
• 0:15
  Speaker 2: we got a lot to get to. We'll get to Iran,
• 0:17
  Speaker 2: and we'll get to FIFA, and we'll get to Platner
• 0:21
  Speaker 2: and the midterms and a whole lot more well Iran.
• 0:27
  Speaker 2: President Trump saying the negotiating is over. He said there
• 0:32
  Speaker 2: are a bunch of liars and creeps, at one point
• 0:34
  Speaker 2: calling them scum. Now he's a brilliant negotiator, President Trump.
• 0:41
  Speaker 2: He's done it for years. He's written the book literally
• 0:44
  Speaker 2: on negotiating the art of the deal. It's forty years
• 0:48
  Speaker 2: of incredible actually more fifty years of incredible negotiating. So
• 0:52
  Speaker 2: he knows how to do this as well as anyone
• 0:54
  Speaker 2: on earth. But his whole life, he's been negotiating with
• 0:58
  Speaker 2: business people, with unions, with real estate guys, with the
• 1:02
  Speaker 2: City of New York. You know, well he's building all
• 1:05
  Speaker 2: over the world, with governments. So whenever you're negotiating with those,
• 1:09
  Speaker 2: they're somewhat reasonable. Those people they all have their own interests.
• 1:12
  Speaker 2: You know. Business people are business people. They're at some
• 1:15
  Speaker 2: point want to make a deal. Same thing with the
• 1:17
  Speaker 2: government everything else. So this is the first time I
• 1:20
  Speaker 2: would bet that he's ever dealt with total lunatics. Now,
• 1:25
  Speaker 2: through the years, when you're building buildings in New York City,
• 1:28
  Speaker 2: I imagine you got to deal with the mob a lot.
• 1:31
  Speaker 2: So he's negotiated with the gangsters, the mobsters, he's had
• 1:34
  Speaker 2: to do that. But again, they're mobsters. It's organized crimes,
• 1:39
  Speaker 2: so they have a it's an actual business. You could
• 1:42
  Speaker 2: negotiate with them. But when you're dealing with crazed, fanatic lunatics,
• 1:47
  Speaker 2: there's no rhyme or reason to anything. So that's the problem.
• 1:52
  Speaker 2: That's the problem. So he's said that that's it for
• 1:54
  Speaker 2: the negotiating. We have been bombing as of yesterday, we
• 1:58
  Speaker 2: started about five o'clock. We've been bombing over and I
• 2:01
  Speaker 2: hit about eighty five targets. But this is nothing. They're
• 2:05
  Speaker 2: going to escalate this and they're going to really you know,
• 2:08
  Speaker 2: during the piece of the last couple of months, the
• 2:11
  Speaker 2: memo of understanding the peace agreement. You remember for the
• 2:15
  Speaker 2: last few months, what did you keep hearing over and
• 2:17
  Speaker 2: over again, They should go in there and finish the job.
• 2:20
  Speaker 2: We should finish them off. We should finish the job. Well,
• 2:22
  Speaker 2: I think you can see that happen now, you'll see
• 2:25
  Speaker 2: that happen. Now. The relationship with Israel a bit strained.
• 2:29
  Speaker 2: Net and Yahoo taking to Twitter or to cable TV
• 2:32
  Speaker 2: to speak to Trump. So the big strain is there now.
• 2:35
  Speaker 2: Who knows, that could just be for the cameras, But
• 2:40
  Speaker 2: that'll all get repaired and it may come to go
• 2:44
  Speaker 2: back to what it was with Israel and the US
• 2:46
  Speaker 2: militaries both working very closely together to get this finished.
• 2:51
  Speaker 2: And it may take ground troops, but I know they've
• 2:54
  Speaker 2: thought about one thing. It may take ground troops to
• 2:58
  Speaker 2: finish off the IRGC or the leaders. But if that's
• 3:03
  Speaker 2: the case, the ground troops would be Israeli ground troops.
• 3:07
  Speaker 2: We'll back them up with air support and all of that,
• 3:11
  Speaker 2: but the Israeli ground troops pretty effective in that area,
• 3:14
  Speaker 2: and they would know exactly where to go. The Israelis
• 3:17
  Speaker 2: would know exactly what cave, what tunnel, wherever to go.
• 3:21
  Speaker 2: So expect Iran to get finished off, and if that happens,
• 3:25
  Speaker 2: it'd probably be quick a couple of weeks. This pause
• 3:30
  Speaker 2: of a few months gave them US plenty of chance
• 3:32
  Speaker 2: to restock missiles, drones, all that stuff and to carefully
• 3:38
  Speaker 2: work on targets and planning. It's already the most planned
• 3:42
  Speaker 2: war in history. The Pentagon has been working on Iran
• 3:45
  Speaker 2: battle plans for forty five years, but in the last
• 3:48
  Speaker 2: seven weeks we've really tweaked everything. So expected to get
• 3:53
  Speaker 2: really really rough for Iran pretty soon. President talking about
• 3:59
  Speaker 2: the what happened as Iran hit a couple of ships
• 4:02
  Speaker 2: in the Straight of Horn Moose and then we saw
• 4:04
  Speaker 2: some activity at their nuclear sites and that wasn't good.
• 4:07
  Speaker 1: This is live farming. This is live farming.
• 4:11
  Speaker 3: This is live farming.
• 4:14
  Speaker 2: Doger the Iranian Straight of Horror Moose. Anyway, the President
• 4:19
  Speaker 2: will now really really let him have it. Let me
• 4:23
  Speaker 2: see if I can find the President on that. It's
• 4:28
  Speaker 2: here somewhere here.
• 4:30
  Speaker 4: We don't want to sanction friends. It's very simple.
• 4:32
  Speaker 2: Oh, that's actually NATO. We lost the Iran custer here somewhere.
• 4:36
  Speaker 2: Though he called them scum, he called them liars, he
• 4:40
  Speaker 2: called them insane. When he gets really mad, things can
• 4:45
  Speaker 2: get really ugly for Iran, so it's not going to
• 4:48
  Speaker 2: be good for them. Hey, he's also talking about Greenland
• 4:50
  Speaker 2: again there for the NATO talks with the NATO leaders
• 4:53
  Speaker 2: Greenland is back on the agenda taking possession of Greenland. Now,
• 4:58
  Speaker 2: we would probably buy it for deal of money.
• 5:01
  Speaker 4: That's what hurt my relationship with NATO because Greenland doesn't
• 5:06
  Speaker 4: help Denmark. Denmark doesn't spend money to really help Greenland.
• 5:12
  Speaker 4: But it's an important part for the United States and
• 5:15
  Speaker 4: it's surrounded by China ships and Russian ships.
• 5:19
  Speaker 2: So what happened is Denmark actually owns Greenland. We want
• 5:23
  Speaker 2: to buy it from them for billions of dollars. They
• 5:27
  Speaker 2: had a huge debt that would pay off their debt.
• 5:29
  Speaker 2: It was the deal that made perfect sense. They don't
• 5:32
  Speaker 2: need Greenland for anything, we actually do, so we would
• 5:36
  Speaker 2: buy it and would take care of Denmark. However, this
• 5:40
  Speaker 2: is the problem. Ozempic was invented, believe it or not,
• 5:45
  Speaker 2: out of Denmark. Ozempic became the biggest drug in the world.
• 5:50
  Speaker 2: Ozempic has brought in billions and billions and billions of
• 5:55
  Speaker 2: dollars to Denmark, so they don't need our money anymore.
• 5:58
  Speaker 2: That's what stalled the whole thing. Now. The reason we
• 6:01
  Speaker 2: want Greenland at first, it's a very important place strategically
• 6:05
  Speaker 2: for our military defense, very important for all kinds of reasons.
• 6:10
  Speaker 2: Too lengthy to go into. We need Greenland for military defense.
• 6:13
  Speaker 2: We needed for a base, we needed for radar, we
• 6:15
  Speaker 2: needed for all kinds of things, missile. It's just really
• 6:18
  Speaker 2: important militarily. And that's why the Russians have been trying
• 6:23
  Speaker 2: to take Greenland. We're very worried about Russia or China
• 6:27
  Speaker 2: taking possession of it first. Now the other reason. It's
• 6:31
  Speaker 2: filled with minerals, tons and tons and tons of minerals,
• 6:35
  Speaker 2: so we need those. There's a tiny population on Greenland,
• 6:40
  Speaker 2: tiny so small that President Trump is offered everybody in
• 6:44
  Speaker 2: Greenland will give you ten million dollars or something like that,
• 6:47
  Speaker 2: so they would all go along with it. Democrats will.
• 6:50
  Speaker 2: Now you'll hear them all over the airwaves all over
• 6:53
  Speaker 2: the place. You'll hear Democrats yelling and screaming about how
• 6:57
  Speaker 2: this is insane, Why would we want Greenland? The president
• 7:01
  Speaker 2: is crazy. Trump's crazy, what does he want in Greenland? Now?
• 7:04
  Speaker 2: The truth is every US president going back to the
• 7:08
  Speaker 2: nineteen twenties has made the same case that we need Greenland.
• 7:12
  Speaker 2: Every president, Democrat, Republican have all made the case that
• 7:17
  Speaker 2: we've got to have Greenland. Many of them tried negotiating
• 7:20
  Speaker 2: it with Denmark. So every Democratic president Republican president has
• 7:24
  Speaker 2: tried to get Greenland. They will, these fake newspeople will
• 7:28
  Speaker 2: get that amnesia they always get, and they'll forget that,
• 7:31
  Speaker 2: and they'll make it sound like this is some crazy
• 7:33
  Speaker 2: Trump idea. It's not. So the building collapsed pretty bad,
• 7:38
  Speaker 2: pretty pretty bad. This building was the Pfiser Building, forty
• 7:44
  Speaker 2: second Street. It's I don't know, it's like forty to
• 7:48
  Speaker 2: fifty stories. It's big and fat and wide up to
• 7:52
  Speaker 2: the twentieth floor. Then from the twentieth floor up it's smaller.
• 7:56
  Speaker 2: So they tried to expand it. In other words, on
• 7:59
  Speaker 2: the twentieth floor they tried to add like ten floors
• 8:01
  Speaker 2: above half of the twentieth floor, and the steel beams
• 8:05
  Speaker 2: couldn't handle the weight of these new twenty floors. You
• 8:09
  Speaker 2: would think, whoever the architect was, whoever the builder was,
• 8:14
  Speaker 2: they would have figured this all out and calculated this correctly.
• 8:17
  Speaker 2: Obviously they didn't, and that's what caused it to buckle.
• 8:22
  Speaker 2: How are you going to fix it? Who knows? Nobody
• 8:26
  Speaker 2: knows how the hell they're ever going to fix this.
• 8:28
  Speaker 2: Here's may Or mom, Donnie. The reason they were doing
• 8:30
  Speaker 2: all this, They were trying to convert this office building
• 8:34
  Speaker 2: to residential.
• 8:35
  Speaker 1: This is an existing thirty seven story building with active
• 8:39
  Speaker 1: permits to convert it from a commercial office building to
• 8:42
  Speaker 1: a residential building.
• 8:44
  Speaker 2: Yeah, so fixing it. I don't know how the hell
• 8:47
  Speaker 2: they're going to fix it. This is going to be really,
• 8:51
  Speaker 2: really difficult. You may have to take down the twenty
• 8:54
  Speaker 2: stories they built above it. There might be a way
• 8:57
  Speaker 2: to reinforce those steel beams. If they're there was a way,
• 9:01
  Speaker 2: I'm assuming they would have done it. Everybody's forty second Street,
• 9:06
  Speaker 2: second and third, close to traffic at forty third Street
• 9:08
  Speaker 2: as well, fire department. Everybody's there.
• 9:11
  Speaker 3: The way this building is constructed, it's a steel framed building,
• 9:14
  Speaker 3: so it would not be a total collapse. It would
• 9:17
  Speaker 3: be more of a localized collapse. But that remains our
• 9:21
  Speaker 3: concern that it moving.
• 9:24
  Speaker 2: Yeah, no steel being building in mither words, it wouldn't
• 9:27
  Speaker 2: topple over. It would pancake down. That's what happened with
• 9:31
  Speaker 2: the World Trade Center. But then it sends stuff flying
• 9:34
  Speaker 2: in every direction. Here's this is the Apartment of Buildings.
• 9:38
  Speaker 2: What we are focused on and what we feel like
• 9:41
  Speaker 2: the next step is is making sure we can get
• 9:43
  Speaker 2: into that twenty first floor to add additional emergency trustes
• 9:47
  Speaker 2: to spread.
• 9:48
  Speaker 1: That load and be able to move on with the investigation.
• 9:51
  Speaker 2: Yeah. So in other words, they have to be able
• 9:53
  Speaker 2: to get in there at some point, build these emergency
• 9:56
  Speaker 2: support beams, these new support beams. But as he said,
• 10:00
  Speaker 2: that would just be temporary. That would just be to
• 10:02
  Speaker 2: stabilize the building and give them time to figure out
• 10:05
  Speaker 2: what the solution is. And I have a feeling the
• 10:07
  Speaker 2: solution is going to be tearing down those twenty floors
• 10:10
  Speaker 2: they built above the twentieth floor. And I don't know
• 10:13
  Speaker 2: how the hell you do that or how long. I mean,
• 10:15
  Speaker 2: this block could be closed for a long long time.
• 10:20
  Speaker 4: Now.
• 10:20
  Speaker 2: If he is successful stabilizing the building with those emergency
• 10:23
  Speaker 2: support beams, then maybe maybe he could open it to traffic.
• 10:28
  Speaker 2: He'd lose a lane or two for construction, but not
• 10:31
  Speaker 2: going to be easy. Graham Platner is causing all kinds
• 10:36
  Speaker 2: of problems for the Democrats. They've decided they want him out,
• 10:41
  Speaker 2: not because he's a rapist, not because he's a Nazi.
• 10:44
  Speaker 2: There's nothing to do with it. They just realize there's
• 10:46
  Speaker 2: more stuff coming, There's too much stuff now. They realize
• 10:50
  Speaker 2: he can't win that's the only reason they want him out.
• 10:52
  Speaker 2: You could have a big Nazi tattoo all over your face.
• 10:54
  Speaker 2: Doesn't bother them, can't win, that bothers them. That bothers them,
• 10:58
  Speaker 2: so they want him out. He's got to get out
• 11:01
  Speaker 2: by I think it's next week. There's a deadline where
• 11:05
  Speaker 2: if he doesn't drop out by then, there's no way
• 11:07
  Speaker 2: to remove him from the ballot. So he's got to
• 11:11
  Speaker 2: get out. Now he's holding up the process. He should
• 11:13
  Speaker 2: just get out, but he's demanding the right to pick
• 11:16
  Speaker 2: his replacement. I don't blame the guy forgive him a
• 11:21
  Speaker 2: hard time, because I think Platner realizes he has absolutely
• 11:25
  Speaker 2: no future in politics. He can never run again. This
• 11:29
  Speaker 2: is it, end of the line. So he's got to
• 11:31
  Speaker 2: cash us in and get whatever he can. He's demanding
• 11:35
  Speaker 2: finally pick his replacement. All the big supporters. Bernie Sanders
• 11:40
  Speaker 2: was his original big booster, and he said nothing for
• 11:43
  Speaker 2: two days. Bernie Sanders has finally weighed in. Sanders said,
• 11:48
  Speaker 2: I've spoken with Grim Plattner about the best Perth forward
• 11:52
  Speaker 2: for Maine in light of these very serious negotiations allegations.
• 11:57
  Speaker 2: I have recommended that he step aside. Even Bernie Sanders
• 12:01
  Speaker 2: threw in the towel and gave up. You know, the
• 12:04
  Speaker 2: ex girlfriend tells the story of being raped by him.
• 12:07
  Speaker 2: Apparently there's another woman about to come out. So what
• 12:11
  Speaker 2: does Mom Donnie say about platnir?
• 12:13
  Speaker 1: The focus of today should be to respond to the
• 12:17
  Speaker 1: gravity of what so many of us have read. And
• 12:19
  Speaker 1: I think that the only appropriate response is for the
• 12:21
  Speaker 1: campaign to come to an end.
• 12:22
  Speaker 2: Ah, even Mom Donnie says, get out. Hey. You notice
• 12:25
  Speaker 2: Mom Donnie talks very fast. Whenever Mom Donny talks, he
• 12:28
  Speaker 2: talks really fast. So that way he sounds very smart
• 12:29
  Speaker 2: because he's talking so fast. But you ever know, this
• 12:31
  Speaker 2: was a difficult question. He slows down. Listen.
• 12:36
  Speaker 1: The focus of today should be to respond to the gravity.
• 12:40
  Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, he gets slow and well it's a rough question.
• 12:43
  Speaker 2: He gets a little slow on things. Hey, Mitch McConnell,
• 12:48
  Speaker 2: looks like he's doing a little better. There were reports
• 12:51
  Speaker 2: that he was brain dead. It was all over the
• 12:54
  Speaker 2: place yesterday that he was declared officially brain dead. That
• 12:57
  Speaker 2: is not true. Those reports made the news and they
• 13:00
  Speaker 2: were spreading all over the internet. So McConnell started calling people,
• 13:06
  Speaker 2: colleagues and GOP leaders from his hospital bed to assure
• 13:10
  Speaker 2: them that he's actually okay. Oh, Jeopardy. They're looking for
• 13:17
  Speaker 2: a writer, a new clue writer. You know, somebody writes
• 13:20
  Speaker 2: all those questions and clues and all that stuff. And
• 13:24
  Speaker 2: apparently the guy's leaving. So this is a big thing
• 13:27
  Speaker 2: for you know, if you're in the Jeopardy universe, it's
• 13:31
  Speaker 2: a big thing. First time in a million years, they've
• 13:33
  Speaker 2: hired a new writer and they're auditioning. They say, thousands
• 13:36
  Speaker 2: and thousands and thousands and thousands of people. Do you
• 13:39
  Speaker 2: know you got to know all this stuff. I can't
• 13:41
  Speaker 2: watch Jeopardy because it starts with three nerds, and then
• 13:47
  Speaker 2: they introduced the three nerds, and then at some point
• 13:49
  Speaker 2: he says, tell us about yourself and the nerds. It's
• 13:53
  Speaker 2: the least interesting people in the world. And then they
• 13:56
  Speaker 2: start the game. And these three people they know everything
• 14:00
  Speaker 2: is a river in Mugadishu, and they know the river.
• 14:04
  Speaker 2: I can't believe it, this eighteen forty seven poem, and
• 14:08
  Speaker 2: they know the answer. It's unbelievable. You got to be
• 14:11
  Speaker 2: pretty smart to write these clues. The job pays one
• 14:16
  Speaker 2: hundred and thirty two thousand up to one hundred and
• 14:18
  Speaker 2: seventy eight thousand. Now, for some jobs that would sound
• 14:22
  Speaker 2: like a lot of money, But for Jeopardy, I would
• 14:24
  Speaker 2: think the clue writer, the one that makes up the questions,
• 14:28
  Speaker 2: I would think that's the most crucial thing on the show.
• 14:31
  Speaker 2: That's what people are watching for. This show makes like
• 14:34
  Speaker 2: billions of dollars a year. That's all they're going to
• 14:37
  Speaker 2: pay the guy. I mean, for a show that's making billions.
• 14:42
  Speaker 2: This job should pay a lot more than that, But
• 14:44
  Speaker 2: that's all they pay for the job. Hey, we'll take
• 14:47
  Speaker 2: some calls. Next. Eight hundred three to two one zero
• 14:50
  Speaker 2: seven ten is the number? Eight hundred three to two,
• 14:53
  Speaker 2: one zero seven ten.
