  Speaker 1: Finally, finally, Larry, Natalie, and a massive audience out there.
• 0:06
  Speaker 1: We have information about a name that would not resonate
• 0:09
  Speaker 1: with most people. Thomas Matthew Crooks. Thomas Matthew Crooks. I
• 0:15
  Speaker 1: always say never trust anybody with three names, but there
• 0:18
  Speaker 1: are a lot of people out there who like to
• 0:19
  Speaker 1: be recognized by three names.
• 0:21
  Speaker 2: How about anybody with the last name Crooks?
• 0:25
  Speaker 1: Well, slowly I turn step-by-step back to July 13th of
• 0:30
  Speaker 1: 2020 for Warren Butler. The president, then-citizen Trump, is having
• 0:36
  Speaker 1: a huge rally before going on to Milwaukee for the
• 0:41
  Speaker 1: Republican National Convention, where obviously they would officially give him
• 0:46
  Speaker 1: the nomination. And then he would go on to run
• 0:49
  Speaker 1: for the presidency. But it was Thomas Crooks Butler who
• 0:54
  Speaker 1: had crawled on top of that building, got access to
• 0:58
  Speaker 1: within shooting sight of then-citizen Trump, and within the barest
• 1:04
  Speaker 1: of minimal space, could easily have killed the president as
• 1:11
  Speaker 1: he shot multiple times, or maybe rendered him incapable of continuing.
• 1:17
  Speaker 1: Thank God he moved his head ever so slightly, and
• 1:20
  Speaker 1: that was avoided. But I know both you, Larry, I,
• 1:23
  Speaker 1: and so many citizens out there said, okay, they killed
• 1:27
  Speaker 1: this guy, Thomas Matthew Crooks. Should be able to get
• 1:32
  Speaker 1: a profile on him. It turned out he was a
• 1:34
  Speaker 1: young guy. And we were waiting for volumes of information
• 1:38
  Speaker 1: because we know if the government wasn't going to provide it,
• 1:41
  Speaker 1: there would be reporters, intrepid reporters. They would be knocking
• 1:45
  Speaker 1: on doors. They would be digging up all information. And
• 1:48
  Speaker 1: all of a sudden, remember, Larry was like almost nothing.
• 1:52
  Speaker 1: It's almost as if he didn't exist. We know that
• 1:57
  Speaker 1: Trump was almost killed, but little if anything came out
• 2:01
  Speaker 1: about this guy. And then all of a sudden there
• 2:03
  Speaker 1: were different stories about him that conflicted with one another.
• 2:07
  Speaker 1: And we always said, well, why haven't we heard from
• 2:10
  Speaker 1: the father and the mother? who raised him in their
• 2:13
  Speaker 1: house along with their daughter. It seemed like nobody had
• 2:16
  Speaker 1: talked to the father or mother. We just assumed that
• 2:18
  Speaker 1: they wouldn't talk. Well, lo and behold, Senator Grassley of
• 2:23
  Speaker 1: Iowa had hearings in which they had access to the father.
• 2:29
  Speaker 1: His name is Matthew. And he, it's not like he
• 2:33
  Speaker 1: took the Code of Emeritus or the Fifth Amendment. Oh,
• 2:36
  Speaker 1: my God. The father was talking all about him from birth,
• 2:40
  Speaker 1: meaning the shooter, Thomas Matthew Crooks, from birth to his demise.
• 2:48
  Speaker 1: So the father tells the Grassley committee, you know, I
• 2:51
  Speaker 1: knew it was a little strange because upon birth, he
• 2:54
  Speaker 1: never screened. You know, when they hit him on his backside,
• 2:58
  Speaker 1: he wasn't yelling. He wasn't screaming. And at a very
• 3:01
  Speaker 1: young age, he was always very quiet, pretty much to himself,
• 3:05
  Speaker 1: very solemn. And at that point, he said it was
• 3:09
  Speaker 1: very difficult to have a father-son relationship as much as
• 3:12
  Speaker 1: I tried because he rarely expressed emotion. He hardly laughed.
• 3:18
  Speaker 1: He was hard to make out. And then in elementary school,
• 3:22
  Speaker 1: he seemed to be bored in school. So I tried
• 3:25
  Speaker 1: to engage him. I'm trying to figure out what is
• 3:27
  Speaker 1: it that my son might like, you know, that would
• 3:30
  Speaker 1: elicit some kind of emotion. And then in junior high school,
• 3:34
  Speaker 1: he took a turn. This is the shooter, Thomas Matthew Crooks.
• 3:39
  Speaker 1: We thought, meaning he and his wife thought he might
• 3:41
  Speaker 1: have ADHD, attention deficit hyperactivity disorder. And he went for
• 3:48
  Speaker 1: some counseling about that. He started hanging out with the
• 3:51
  Speaker 1: bad kids. He was starting to become a bad boy.
• 3:55
  Speaker 1: So we did an intervention. Then in high school, he
• 3:59
  Speaker 1: does a complete turn. He becomes stoic. He's almost like
• 4:02
  Speaker 1: a lone wolf. And he had an issue with some
• 4:05
  Speaker 1: of his teachers because he started talking to himself on occasion,
• 4:10
  Speaker 1: both in the hallways, in the classroom, and even at home.
• 4:14
  Speaker 1: And so we said, oh, maybe we're going to have
• 4:16
  Speaker 1: to Get him more in-depth counseling. So apparently the parents
• 4:19
  Speaker 1: are trying. It's not like, hey, kid, go up in
• 4:22
  Speaker 1: your room, lock yourself in, and we don't know what's
• 4:24
  Speaker 1: going on. But then all of a sudden, he started
• 4:27
  Speaker 1: to binge. He starts studying. He's taking college preparatory courses.
• 4:32
  Speaker 1: He was really into it. He got 1,400 on his SATs.
• 4:37
  Speaker 2: That's the first time. The second time he got 1,500.
• 4:40
  Speaker 1: 1,500. Larry combined my SATs.
• 4:44
  Speaker 3: Combined.
• 4:46
  Speaker 1: Weren't even 800.
• 4:46
  Speaker 2: How many times did you take them?
• 4:48
  Speaker 1: Twice. I had my number two sharpened pencils that my
• 4:51
  Speaker 1: mother Francesca gave me with my two chocolate bars for energy.
• 4:55
  Speaker 1: At Midwood High School, they sent you to take it
• 4:57
  Speaker 1: at a public high school on a Saturday. That's what
• 5:00
  Speaker 1: I thought SAT meant. Saturday, you know, that's when you
• 5:02
  Speaker 1: took those tests right next to Brooklyn College. I had
• 5:05
  Speaker 1: miserable scores. This kid is like, wow. So the parents
• 5:09
  Speaker 1: are going, wow, he's really making us proud. Now he's
• 5:13
  Speaker 1: talking about joining the Navy. He wants to work on
• 5:15
  Speaker 1: a nuclear submarine. So I have a father and son
• 5:19
  Speaker 1: talk with him. Hey, you don't seem to be interested
• 5:22
  Speaker 1: in girls. Ah, but I'm not gay. You know, I just,
• 5:25
  Speaker 1: you know, I'm fighting myself, dad. And then he got
• 5:28
  Speaker 1: into shooting guns, which a lot of young guys are into.
• 5:32
  Speaker 2: Especially that part of the country.
• 5:33
  Speaker 4: Yeah.
• 5:34
  Speaker 1: They love shooting guns. And the father was a gun
• 5:37
  Speaker 1: owner and the grandfather was a gun owner. So it
• 5:39
  Speaker 1: was in their family. But then all of a sudden
• 5:43
  Speaker 1: he goes, but I'm not into hunting and fishing like
• 5:47
  Speaker 1: you and grandpa. By the way, dad, do I have
• 5:53
  Speaker 1: to get a background check in order to buy your
• 5:55
  Speaker 1: Glock gun? So the kid is like into it. He's online.
• 5:59
  Speaker 1: He's researching gun ownership, asked if he could have his
• 6:03
  Speaker 1: grandpa's guns, which, as you know, in a lot of
• 6:06
  Speaker 1: Pennsylvania families, especially out there outside of Pittsburgh, western Pennsylvania,
• 6:10
  Speaker 1: in the more suburban rural areas, that's a tradition. You know,
• 6:13
  Speaker 1: you pass down the guns from granddad to daddy to child.
• 6:19
  Speaker 1: And because of the pandemic, the father, Matthew, decides to
• 6:22
  Speaker 1: register him into a gun club. He couldn't hit a
• 6:26
  Speaker 1: paper target if his life depended on him. So for
• 6:29
  Speaker 1: four or five years, he's practicing. He's practicing. He loves
• 6:33
  Speaker 1: going to the range. Everybody says this kid can't shoot.
• 6:36
  Speaker 1: You know, he couldn't hit the side of a bar. Suddenly,
• 6:38
  Speaker 1: he becomes a good shooter. He buys a prism sight,
• 6:43
  Speaker 1: and he starts zeroing in on his target. So the
• 6:46
  Speaker 1: father's proud of him. Hey, kid, you came a long way.
• 6:49
  Speaker 1: Couldn't hit the broad side of a bar. Now, man,
• 6:51
  Speaker 1: you hit that target right in the middle. And he's
• 6:54
  Speaker 1: going online and he's buying products through who? Jeff Bezos' Amazon.
• 6:59
  Speaker 1: Because he wants to order parts, tools, and items to
• 7:03
  Speaker 1: increase the capacity of his rifle. Not at all unusual.
• 7:07
  Speaker 1: But because his dad had had his checking account hacked
• 7:11
  Speaker 1: at Citizens Bank, he becomes a little paranoid because the father, Matthew,
• 7:15
  Speaker 1: is paranoid. So he goes, you know, I'm going to
• 7:18
  Speaker 1: use a name, Bob Dole. I mean, who would the
• 7:21
  Speaker 1: hell use the name of the former U.S. senator from Kansas,
• 7:25
  Speaker 1: Bob Dole, because he believed that he might get hacked?
• 7:29
  Speaker 2: But that was also the first hint that he was political.
• 7:32
  Speaker 5: Yes.
• 7:32
  Speaker 2: That was the first time people thought, hey, this kid
• 7:35
  Speaker 2: knows politics.
• 7:36
  Speaker 1: I mean, think about it, Larry. Who would even know
• 7:40
  Speaker 1: about Bob Dole at his age, right?
• 7:42
  Speaker 4: Right.
• 7:43
  Speaker 1: Right, exactly.
• 7:44
  Speaker 2: So that is a key point that he used Bob
• 7:47
  Speaker 2: Dole's name because it's a key point because all of
• 7:50
  Speaker 2: a sudden— He was paying attention to politics. Very smart,
• 7:54
  Speaker 2: and all of a sudden, his mind's in politics.
• 7:56
  Speaker 1: But he's got this glitch. He's paranoid about identity, people
• 8:01
  Speaker 1: finding out identity. So his dad, Matthew, teaches him to
• 8:05
  Speaker 1: use identity-obscuring software, CyberGhost, UPN, and the Bravest Browser. And
• 8:13
  Speaker 1: he uses multiple different privacy-focused encrypted email providers, including GMX
• 8:19
  Speaker 1: and MailFence. I have no idea what those things are.
• 8:23
  Speaker 6: I know.
• 8:23
  Speaker 1: So the kid is already like into that world. The
• 8:28
  Speaker 1: dad is interacting with him because he's teaching him some
• 8:32
  Speaker 1: of this. So it's not like he's learning this from
• 8:34
  Speaker 1: his friends or he's in his room and, you know,
• 8:37
  Speaker 1: he's cyber surfing and learning all these things himself on
• 8:40
  Speaker 1: the dark web. It's almost like a father and his son.
• 8:43
  Speaker 1: A little unusual, you know, but not all that unusual
• 8:47
  Speaker 1: from a lot of fathers and sons growing up, particularly
• 8:51
  Speaker 1: in that part of western Pennsylvania.
• 8:52
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I read a lot of this, and I was
• 8:54
  Speaker 2: kind of disappointed that we found out you just gave
• 8:57
  Speaker 2: a wealth of information about him. We found out all
• 8:59
  Speaker 2: that information about him. Why did he shoot the president?
• 9:03
  Speaker 6: Why?
• 9:04
  Speaker 2: Where was that in all of that report? Why did
• 9:07
  Speaker 2: he go out and shoot the president? So my feeling
• 9:09
  Speaker 2: is sometimes with this kind of information that is fascinating,
• 9:12
  Speaker 2: by the way, that gets released. But we still don't
• 9:16
  Speaker 2: know why he got so many shots off. We still
• 9:18
  Speaker 2: don't know why he got up there. We still don't know.
• 9:21
  Speaker 2: why they cremated the body. We still don't know exactly
• 9:24
  Speaker 2: what he was. So I think that many times they
• 9:27
  Speaker 2: drip this kind of stuff out. So we'll talk about it.
• 9:30
  Speaker 2: We talk about it a lot. We feel like they're
• 9:32
  Speaker 2: now disclosing stuff.
• 9:34
  Speaker 1: It's been over two years. It's been over two years.
• 9:37
  Speaker 2: And we still don't know what his motivation was. And
• 9:40
  Speaker 2: we still don't know why they hid so much information.
• 9:44
  Speaker 2: We don't know why they're just leaving this stuff out now.
• 9:47
  Speaker 1: Well, that's the interesting part is the Grassley's committee obviously
• 9:52
  Speaker 1: did a deep dive so not that deep no but
• 9:55
  Speaker 1: went to talk to the father the father didn't say
• 9:58
  Speaker 1: sorry do you have a warrant you know, I'm not
• 10:01
  Speaker 1: at liberty to discuss anything.
• 10:03
  Speaker 2: But Curtis, the key questions are still out there. But
• 10:05
  Speaker 2: it's been a long time for those key questions to
• 10:08
  Speaker 2: still be out there. Very simple questions. And nobody talked.
• 10:11
  Speaker 2: Talk to the state police. Talk to the medical examiner
• 10:15
  Speaker 2: in Pennsylvania. They got a lot to say. Talk to
• 10:18
  Speaker 2: all those people. This stuff's fascinating. It's really important, but
• 10:22
  Speaker 2: it doesn't get to the core issue.
• 10:23
  Speaker 1: You see, the fact that they've released some, it's like anything.
• 10:27
  Speaker 1: They released the Epstein files. You want more. You release files.
• 10:30
  Speaker 1: Now the CIA are on the involvement of Bush and
• 10:33
  Speaker 1: Clinton and not doing anything about it. Sometimes they don't
• 10:35
  Speaker 1: release the stuff that's top secrets. There's going to be
• 10:38
  Speaker 1: some stuff that's blacked out that we're never going to
• 10:40
  Speaker 1: know and we should know.
• 10:42
  Speaker 2: We should know. So maybe you're right. I'm hoping you're
• 10:45
  Speaker 2: an optimist in this. I hope you're right. I hope
• 10:48
  Speaker 2: you're saying that this is released and there's more to come.
• 10:51
  Speaker 2: My feeling is we're never going to know.
• 10:53
  Speaker 1: Well, that may well be true, but I would have
• 10:56
  Speaker 1: never thought after all this time, almost 800 days. That
• 11:00
  Speaker 1: we would ever learn anything until both of us were
• 11:03
  Speaker 1: dead and, you know, something was unearthed that we were
• 11:07
  Speaker 1: all not aware of.
• 11:09
  Speaker 2: But did that tell you anything about why he shot
• 11:11
  Speaker 2: the president?
• 11:12
  Speaker 1: No, but it also indicated that it wasn't what people
• 11:16
  Speaker 1: were trying to say initially. We don't know. We don't
• 11:19
  Speaker 1: know when he turned. He obviously turned.
• 11:23
  Speaker 2: And that's not in there.
• 11:24
  Speaker 1: Well, see, now that the father obviously has been a
• 11:27
  Speaker 1: willing participant because we thought the family would not participate
• 11:30
  Speaker 1: with anyone, I think it's incumbent that people try to
• 11:34
  Speaker 1: talk with the family and get in on the public record.
• 11:37
  Speaker 2: You're talking about the media. I'm sure they already know.
• 11:40
  Speaker 2: Many of the questions I'm asking right now, I think
• 11:42
  Speaker 2: they know the answers to. And I think that's not
• 11:44
  Speaker 2: being released. And this is a little bit being released
• 11:47
  Speaker 2: so we can say, look, they're being transparent. They are
• 11:50
  Speaker 2: not being transparent. Did anybody watch the Emmys last night?
• 11:56
  Speaker 1: No, we cut the cord a long time ago. My
• 11:59
  Speaker 1: wife's a millennial, Nancy. No TV, none of those other services,
• 12:04
  Speaker 1: Hulu and the rest of them.
• 12:07
  Speaker 7: I got through a little bit. The beginning was rough.
• 12:11
  Speaker 2: Does anybody know any of the shows?
• 12:13
  Speaker 7: Well, that's the problem.
• 12:14
  Speaker 1: There's so many shows now.
• 12:16
  Speaker 2: I mean, it used to be, the Emmys used to
• 12:18
  Speaker 2: be a big deal, a really big deal, because it
• 12:21
  Speaker 2: was like three networks, and then Fox started to come up,
• 12:24
  Speaker 2: and then you had four networks, and everybody watched the
• 12:27
  Speaker 2: same shows. Everybody knew ER. Everybody knew Seinfeld. Everybody knew
• 12:32
  Speaker 2: the top shows. Widow's Bay?
• 12:35
  Speaker 8: That one? That one got me. I said, okay, I
• 12:38
  Speaker 8: don't think I've even heard of this one. If it
• 12:40
  Speaker 8: wasn't going to be Abbott Elementary.
• 12:41
  Speaker 7: I didn't know any of them. I was like, I
• 12:44
  Speaker 7: think that's the only one I've seen. It's sad.
• 12:47
  Speaker 2: It's too much. If you saw what it was, Ben,
• 12:49
  Speaker 2: you can rave about it. Leave us a talk back.
• 12:51
  Speaker 2: But The Pit, I know my wife watches.
• 12:53
  Speaker 7: And my husband watches that, too.
• 12:55
  Speaker 2: Not together.
• 12:56
  Speaker 7: Maybe they do. They've left us out.
• 12:59
  Speaker 1: The only Pit I know is Brad Pitt. He's not
• 13:02
  Speaker 1: in it.
• 13:03
  Speaker 2: No, this is a ripoff of E.R., Oh, okay.
• 13:05
  Speaker 1: But very popular. Oh, I've seen the advertisement. So this
• 13:09
  Speaker 1: is on what? Hulu?
• 13:11
  Speaker 2: I don't know.
• 13:11
  Speaker 9: Who knows?
• 13:12
  Speaker 2: I don't know.
• 13:13
  Speaker 8: It's on something that we have to click 10 buttons
• 13:16
  Speaker 8: to get to.
• 13:16
  Speaker 1: But let me ask you a question. it costs a
• 13:19
  Speaker 1: lot of money to do these programs. A lot of money.
• 13:22
  Speaker 1: You know, they have sets, they have costumes, they have stars, starlets.
• 13:27
  Speaker 1: Where are they generating income from if apparently a lot
• 13:31
  Speaker 1: of people are not watching these programs?
• 13:33
  Speaker 2: Oh, no, they're making a lot of money. They're making
• 13:36
  Speaker 2: a lot of money. They still have some of the
• 13:38
  Speaker 2: same audiences that they used to have. And so, yeah,
• 13:41
  Speaker 2: they sell them to the streaming services. Then they put
• 13:44
  Speaker 2: them out in reruns afterwards. Trust me there. There is
• 13:47
  Speaker 2: still money to be made. Guess who won for best
• 13:49
  Speaker 2: talk show? Go ahead, take a guess.
• 13:53
  Speaker 1: He's no longer on the air. Very good. Very good.
• 13:56
  Speaker 2: Stephen Colbert, of course.
• 13:59
  Speaker 10: The thing about these late shows is that besides being
• 14:01
  Speaker 10: a really good, steady job, is that they require so
• 14:04
  Speaker 10: many people that they're a fantastic incubator for young people
• 14:08
  Speaker 10: to come in, to learn to work professionally on a deadline,
• 14:12
  Speaker 10: in cooperation, in collaboration. And that is the future of
• 14:16
  Speaker 10: our business that we have to look after.
• 14:18
  Speaker 2: Wow, I wish I had those 15 seconds back. I
• 14:21
  Speaker 2: shouldn't have played that.
• 14:23
  Speaker 7: More importantly, the.
• 14:24
  Speaker 8: Pits on HBO Max. And if you want to watch it,
• 14:27
  Speaker 8: that's where you find it.
• 14:28
  Speaker 2: Yeah, that came in second. That had double digit Emmys
• 14:31
  Speaker 2: as well. Taylor Swift, they made a big deal because
• 14:34
  Speaker 2: she made an appearance in a video. So this is
• 14:37
  Speaker 2: the first time we've really seen her since the wedding.
• 14:39
  Speaker 2: But stealing the show was Reba McEntire doing a tribute
• 14:43
  Speaker 2: to Dolly Parton.
• 14:45
  Speaker 7: Keep looking to the Father.
• 14:49
  Speaker 11: Keep my head above the water.
• 14:54
  Speaker 12: Appalachian memories keep me strong.
• 15:03
  Speaker 13: That was beautiful.
• 15:06
  Speaker 6: All right.
• 15:06
  Speaker 1: Now let me ask you a question. You mentioned Taylor Swift.
• 15:10
  Speaker 1: I saw Taylor Swift last night in the box as a,
• 15:14
  Speaker 1: As the Kansas City Chiefs and her boy toy caught
• 15:17
  Speaker 1: a like 57-yard pass at the end and the Chiefs
• 15:20
  Speaker 1: beat the Denver Broncos. I saw her because all the
• 15:23
  Speaker 1: cameras were on her. Oh, there's Taylor Swift. She's ruined
• 15:26
  Speaker 1: the NFL. She's ruined it. Well, you know what?
• 15:29
  Speaker 2: To her credit, she's asked them to please limit the
• 15:33
  Speaker 2: amount of times that you show me. Remember, they were
• 15:35
  Speaker 2: showing her so much, she one time got booed. And she,
• 15:40
  Speaker 2: that was probably, that was probably some awareness right there.
• 15:43
  Speaker 1: We had to find out that Tom Cruise was sitting
• 15:46
  Speaker 1: next to her in the box. Who cares?
• 15:49
  Speaker 2: There's a whole lot of people that cared. The NFL
• 15:51
  Speaker 2: loves having her at the game. Trust me. They have
• 15:55
  Speaker 2: a whole new audience now because of Taylor Swift. Uh,
• 15:59
  Speaker 2: but let's talk about Bob Mackie real quickly because he
• 16:01
  Speaker 2: used to do the, the costume design for the, the
• 16:04
  Speaker 2: Emmys and for just about everything else. Uh, Mackie died
• 16:08
  Speaker 2: at the age of 87. He's very well known in
• 16:11
  Speaker 2: New York, of course. He was the costume designer for
• 16:14
  Speaker 2: many plays. Natalie, you've talked to him before.
• 16:17
  Speaker 8: Yeah, I did have the opportunity to do an interview
• 16:19
  Speaker 8: with him once.
• 16:20
  Speaker 7: Really nice guy. down-to-earth guy. Like, it was amazing.
• 16:24
  Speaker 8: And then when you see his costumes, iconic costumes that
• 16:27
  Speaker 8: you would think of Cher. They were sparkles and glitz
• 16:31
  Speaker 8: and rhinestones and sequins. He even did, I found out
• 16:34
  Speaker 8: this morning, the dress that Marilyn Monroe wore when she
• 16:39
  Speaker 8: sang Happy Birthday to President Kennedy.
• 16:40
  Speaker 2: Just about every famous dress that you can imagine, it
• 16:44
  Speaker 2: always comes back to Bob Mackie. So we've lost a
• 16:47
  Speaker 2: great one. at the age of 87. Let's get the
• 16:50
  Speaker 2: news now at 6.30 with Daria Albinger.
• 16:54
  Speaker 4: Hey, Daria.
• 16:54
  Speaker 13: Hey, morning, guys.
• 16:55
  Speaker 12: Sunny and cooler today. Feels like fall. We'll see a
• 16:58
  Speaker 12: high of 71 degrees.
• 17:00
  Speaker 1: It's a hoax.
• 17:01
  Speaker 12: That's what President Trump says about the warnings that we've
• 17:03
  Speaker 12: been hearing about the possible dangers of artificial intelligence.
• 17:07
  Speaker 14: The president, over the phone, spoke to NVIDIA CEO Jensen
• 17:10
  Speaker 14: Huang at a tech summit in LA.
• 17:12
  Speaker 1: We have to be a little bit careful.
• 17:14
  Speaker 15: We have to very be, you know, we have to
• 17:17
  Speaker 15: do things and we have to do them prudently, but
• 17:20
  Speaker 15: that doesn't mean we're going to stop an industry.
• 17:22
  Speaker 14: Earlier, Trump posted, the only guardrails AI needs are a
• 17:25
  Speaker 14: strong and smart, high IQ president. And he claimed the
• 17:29
  Speaker 14: doomsday warnings are a sick conspiracy. But the fear is
• 17:32
  Speaker 14: now crossing party lines.
• 17:33
  Speaker 1: That's ABC's Karen Hua.
• 17:35
  Speaker 12: The White House says thousands of people carried out covert
• 17:37
  Speaker 12: era loan fraud schemes. Vice President Vance, Attorney General Todd Blanch,
• 17:42
  Speaker 12: and FBI Director Kash Patel making the announcement at the
• 17:45
  Speaker 12: FBI's Kansas City headquarters They say the Small Business Administration
• 17:49
  Speaker 12: has suspended nearly 870,000 borrowers over an estimated $ 39 billion
• 17:55
  Speaker 12: in suspected fraud. The New York Regents exam may not
• 17:59
  Speaker 12: be a requirement. for graduation from high school for much longer.
• 18:02
  Speaker 15: There's been a long-time push to eliminate the exams as
• 18:04
  Speaker 15: a prerequisite for a diploma, with the Daily News now
• 18:07
  Speaker 15: reporting the Board of Regents is moving to do just that.
• 18:10
  Speaker 15: The board voted to greenlight a plan Monday whereby current
• 18:13
  Speaker 15: seniors will become the last class required to take and
• 18:16
  Speaker 15: pass the tests to graduate. Education Department Commissioner Betty Rosa
• 18:20
  Speaker 15: told the outlet they've been studying, quote, what elite private
• 18:24
  Speaker 15: schools provide for their students, and they do not worry
• 18:26
  Speaker 15: about the regents' exam. Schools are being instructed to develop
• 18:29
  Speaker 15: alternative local assessment strategies, and the exams can still be
• 18:33
  Speaker 15: used to gauge other standards, but if the board has
• 18:35
  Speaker 15: its way, passing the regents won't hold up diplomas anymore.
• 18:39
  Speaker 15: Liz Warner, WOR News.
• 18:41
  Speaker 12: And the Carnegie Deli returns to 7th Avenue today. It's
• 18:44
  Speaker 12: reopening between 53rd and 54th Streets, just steps from its
• 18:49
  Speaker 12: original location. The Yankees are in the playoffs with a
• 18:52
  Speaker 12: win over Minneapolis. The Mets are out after a loss
• 18:55
  Speaker 12: to Baltimore. And Kansas City wins Monday night football season opener.
• 19:00
  Speaker 12: Next news, 7 o'clock bulletins at once. I'm Daria Albinger
• 19:03
  Speaker 12: on 710WOR.
• 19:05
  Speaker 1: Thank you, Daria.
• 19:05
  Speaker 2: Well, Zoran Mamdani and Letitia James hold a news conference.
• 19:09
  Speaker 2: And what else could it be about? They are suing
• 19:12
  Speaker 2: the federal government so your money can keep going to
• 19:16
  Speaker 2: those who are here illegally. We'll discuss it when we
• 19:19
  Speaker 2: come back. In the meantime, I want to tell you
• 19:22
  Speaker 2: about something that happened in Rialto, California. And this shows
• 19:26
  Speaker 2: you that choking can happen anytime. It was a three-year-old
• 19:30
  Speaker 2: coming back from a birthday party, and he started choking
• 19:34
  Speaker 2: on his own vomit. And the mother couldn't save him.
• 19:37
  Speaker 2: So she called 911. And luckily, a police cruiser was
• 19:41
  Speaker 2: close by. They showed up and they had life vac
• 19:45
  Speaker 2: in the patrol car because it's required in Rialto. And
• 19:49
  Speaker 2: they saved the little boy's life with life vac. That's
• 19:52
  Speaker 2: over 6,000 lives saved with life vac. That's why everyone
• 19:57
  Speaker 2: should have them. Because choking is one of those things
• 20:00
  Speaker 2: that can happen to anyone, a child, a parent, a grandparent.
• 20:04
  Speaker 2: And when it does, those seconds matter. That's why I
• 20:08
  Speaker 2: want to tell you about life vac. LIFAC is the
• 20:10
  Speaker 2: first and only FDA-authorized suction anti-choking device to be used
• 20:15
  Speaker 2: for second-line treatment when recommended choking protocols have been followed
• 20:20
  Speaker 2: but without success. As I told you, 6,000 lives, including
• 20:26
  Speaker 2: now a little boy in Rialto, California, just a couple
• 20:29
  Speaker 2: of weeks ago. Those aren't numbers. These are real people.
• 20:33
  Speaker 2: These are real families that are getting second chances at life.
• 20:37
  Speaker 2: Preparedness matters. Having the right tool nearby can make all
• 20:41
  Speaker 2: the difference in the world. Learn more about LifeVac today
• 20:44
  Speaker 2: at LifeVac.net. That's LifeVac.net. Visit LifeVac.net and you can see
• 20:50
  Speaker 2: how you can be ready when it counts. something about
• 21:08
  Speaker 2: the public charge rule because that's what this is all
• 21:11
  Speaker 2: about and that's what's missing from many of the reports
• 21:14
  Speaker 2: about this the public charge rule has always been around
• 21:18
  Speaker 2: and the public charge rule is that we should decide
• 21:21
  Speaker 2: who comes into this country right so you can deny
• 21:25
  Speaker 2: a visa this is already in place it's been around
• 21:27
  Speaker 2: for a long time you can deny a visa application
• 21:31
  Speaker 2: based on the likelihood that that applicant will not be working,
• 21:38
  Speaker 2: but will be sucking money out of the system, that
• 21:40
  Speaker 2: they'll get public benefits. So if they're a net loss
• 21:43
  Speaker 2: for the United States, we don't want them here. If
• 21:47
  Speaker 2: they're going to contribute and we have a benefit from
• 21:50
  Speaker 2: them being here, then we want him here. That has
• 21:53
  Speaker 2: been the law for decades. Well, now the Trump administration
• 21:58
  Speaker 2: wants to expand that law to those who are already here.
• 22:04
  Speaker 2: So if you are here illegally and you are just
• 22:08
  Speaker 2: sucking off the system, you're getting welfare, maybe you're committing fraud,
• 22:12
  Speaker 2: like we've been finding out across the country, we don't
• 22:15
  Speaker 2: want you here anymore. And that's going to take effect
• 22:19
  Speaker 2: on Friday. And that's why Letitia James and Zoram Mamdani
• 22:24
  Speaker 2: had their press conference. And there were similar press conferences
• 22:27
  Speaker 2: across the country because several cities have joined together in this.
• 22:33
  Speaker 2: All Democratic cities, by the way, all trying to protect
• 22:37
  Speaker 2: their voting base.
• 22:38
  Speaker 16: When families lose health coverage, they may delay care until
• 22:43
  Speaker 16: they are forced to seek more expensive care at the
• 22:46
  Speaker 16: emergency department. When families stop receiving food assistance, grocery stores
• 22:52
  Speaker 16: and other small businesses lose customers.
• 22:55
  Speaker 3: The downstream effects will hurt our economy.
• 22:59
  Speaker 1: No, it won't.
• 23:01
  Speaker 2: If you notice, all of the attention is on the illegals,
• 23:05
  Speaker 2: not the people that have to pay for them being
• 23:07
  Speaker 2: here and the millions that are here illegally. Not anything
• 23:10
  Speaker 2: about that. It's all on the illegals. And it was
• 23:12
  Speaker 2: the most draconian thing. They were telling you, well, here,
• 23:16
  Speaker 2: here's Zoran Mamdani.
• 23:17
  Speaker 17: It is estimated that up to 4 million people from
• 23:21
  Speaker 17: across the country could unenroll from their health care alone,
• 23:24
  Speaker 17: including 1.8 million children. None of this is abstract. People
• 23:30
  Speaker 17: could die.
• 23:31
  Speaker 2: People could die. If this goes into effect, people are
• 23:34
  Speaker 2: going to die, or they could go back.
• 23:38
  Speaker 1: Well, they're not going back.
• 23:40
  Speaker 4: Come on, Larry.
• 23:40
  Speaker 2: No, but I mean, they have an option. If they're
• 23:43
  Speaker 2: not going to get public funds, you're smiling like you
• 23:45
  Speaker 2: want to give public funds to them.
• 23:47
  Speaker 6: No, no, no.
• 23:47
  Speaker 1: Don't extrapolate what I'm thinking. Yeah, but I mean, why
• 23:50
  Speaker 1: are you laughing at that? They're not going back. Understand that.
• 23:53
  Speaker 1: They're going to slip through the cracks. Do you want
• 23:54
  Speaker 1: them to go back?
• 23:55
  Speaker 18: No.
• 23:55
  Speaker 1: You don't want them to go back. Let me explain, okay?
• 23:57
  Speaker 1: Before you all of a sudden interpret... what my smile is.
• 24:01
  Speaker 1: They slip through the cracks. They don't go back. Some might,
• 24:04
  Speaker 1: most won't. So you have a situation where if you
• 24:07
  Speaker 1: go back to the old school way of doing things.
• 24:10
  Speaker 2: Can I say one thing? There was no crack. It
• 24:12
  Speaker 2: was a wide open border that let them go through.
• 24:15
  Speaker 2: But go ahead.
• 24:15
  Speaker 1: Understood. But now that you're going to eliminate benefits, they're
• 24:20
  Speaker 1: not going to suddenly say, well, let's go back to
• 24:21
  Speaker 1: Mexico or wherever we're from because we're better off there
• 24:24
  Speaker 1: than here. Handful, yes. Most, no. They just They get
• 24:28
  Speaker 1: into the shadows. So the old school way was you
• 24:31
  Speaker 1: had to have a sponsor. And that's really what the
• 24:34
  Speaker 1: Trump administration is saying is if you're over here and
• 24:38
  Speaker 1: you're applying for a green card or a visa, we're
• 24:41
  Speaker 1: not going to be paying for any benefits. You have
• 24:44
  Speaker 1: to have a sponsor. This is the way it used
• 24:45
  Speaker 1: to be. If you don't have a sponsor, you can't come.
• 24:48
  Speaker 1: I remember my grandfather went through that. Lots of immigrants
• 24:51
  Speaker 1: went through that, especially those who came through Ellis Island.
• 24:54
  Speaker 1: So that is the preferred method. Instead of you just
• 24:58
  Speaker 1: coming and then saying, well, I have no means of existence,
• 25:01
  Speaker 1: of subsistence, so now what are the different programs that
• 25:05
  Speaker 1: I can apply for? The only area I would say
• 25:08
  Speaker 1: that's a little difficult is if a legal family is
• 25:13
  Speaker 1: very sick. They will go to the emergency ward. You
• 25:18
  Speaker 1: almost have to provide care for them, especially if they
• 25:21
  Speaker 1: have a disease that could affect other people. You can't
• 25:26
  Speaker 1: turn them away from the emergency room. You just can't
• 25:29
  Speaker 1: do that.
• 25:30
  Speaker 2: No, I know. I get that.
• 25:31
  Speaker 6: Right.
• 25:31
  Speaker 1: Public health would demand that you have to see them
• 25:34
  Speaker 1: and you have to care for them.
• 25:35
  Speaker 2: Unless they weren't here in the first place. Then they
• 25:38
  Speaker 2: wouldn't have to see them. You know, it all goes
• 25:40
  Speaker 2: back to this. I always hear every time this is
• 25:42
  Speaker 2: brought up, every time an issue is brought up like this,
• 25:44
  Speaker 2: there's a whole lot of words and there's a whole
• 25:46
  Speaker 2: lot of programs when it's a very simple thing. People
• 25:50
  Speaker 2: came here illegally. They shouldn't be here. If they can't contribute,
• 25:54
  Speaker 2: they shouldn't be here. If they can contribute, then yes,
• 25:57
  Speaker 2: we should get a pathway for them. But if they're
• 26:00
  Speaker 2: just sucking public funds, why do all the– wait a second.
• 26:03
  Speaker 2: Why do all the rest of us have to pay
• 26:05
  Speaker 2: for that? You're going to smile again?
• 26:08
  Speaker 1: I'm offering the alternative. You spoke a lot. You're not
• 26:10
  Speaker 1: listening to me. Just stop. I listened to every word
• 26:13
  Speaker 1: you just said. I'm proposing what Bruce Blakeman is talking
• 26:16
  Speaker 1: about now, which is a pathway for those who have
• 26:20
  Speaker 1: been here, who have been working for seven years.
• 26:24
  Speaker 2: Much different issue. Okay. Completely different issue.
• 26:26
  Speaker 1: This is what I'm doing. I know, but why?
• 26:28
  Speaker 2: I mean, so you laugh at when I said it,
• 26:31
  Speaker 2: and now you're saying if people are here and contribute,
• 26:33
  Speaker 2: they should stay. Nobody's saying they should leave. That's not
• 26:38
  Speaker 2: part of this.
• 26:39
  Speaker 1: I'm trying to give credit to Bruce Blakeman here who's
• 26:41
  Speaker 1: running for the governorship because Hochul is certainly supporting Tish
• 26:45
  Speaker 1: James and Zoran Mondami in the 22 state. So Blakeman
• 26:50
  Speaker 1: yesterday has said what he's been saying regularly, but now
• 26:52
  Speaker 1: he's getting traction because the polls indicate it's a tightened race.
• 26:57
  Speaker 1: So he's saying, hey, look, let's have the guest worker program.
• 27:00
  Speaker 1: You've mentioned this before, Larry. He said, if you've been
• 27:03
  Speaker 1: here seven years and you haven't committed any crimes, Let's
• 27:07
  Speaker 1: give you an opportunity to eventually get a green card,
• 27:10
  Speaker 1: if you want to stay here, and continue to be productive,
• 27:14
  Speaker 1: particularly if you're working on a farm or in hospitality
• 27:17
  Speaker 1: or healthcare or landscapes. We give you that opportunity so
• 27:21
  Speaker 1: there's an incentive. So I figure if you've been here
• 27:24
  Speaker 1: seven years and you've stayed out of trouble, that's a
• 27:27
  Speaker 1: pretty good record there. New York right now is legally
• 27:32
  Speaker 1: barred from issuing work permits. So I would put all
• 27:36
  Speaker 1: my efforts into supporting Governor Bruce Blakeman because if that
• 27:41
  Speaker 1: could be put into effect, then obviously we're making ground.
• 27:45
  Speaker 1: But my initial statement is most of these people are
• 27:48
  Speaker 1: not going to go back.
• 27:50
  Speaker 2: Well, here's two things. What you talked about is wonderful.
• 27:54
  Speaker 2: I actually agree with that. You brought it up before.
• 27:57
  Speaker 2: If somebody's contributing, they should have a pathway to citizenship.
• 28:01
  Speaker 2: What Donald Trump is talking about is the exact opposite
• 28:04
  Speaker 2: of that. He's talking about the people that get here
• 28:07
  Speaker 2: and just suck money off the system. And we keep
• 28:11
  Speaker 2: paying it. So we, the taxpayers, are paying for them.
• 28:14
  Speaker 2: He's saying they should go. They should not be allowed
• 28:17
  Speaker 2: to have visas. There's no pathway to citizenship for them.
• 28:21
  Speaker 2: We got to stop soaking the American taxpayer. You would
• 28:24
  Speaker 2: agree with that, right? But this is a little different version.
• 28:27
  Speaker 2: Blakeman is breaking a little bit from the Trump plan.
• 28:30
  Speaker 2: He's talking about somebody completely different than what Trump's talking about.
• 28:33
  Speaker 2: He's talking about people that contribute. Trump's talking about people
• 28:37
  Speaker 2: that don't contribute at all.
• 28:39
  Speaker 1: Let's say if they are contributing and then all of
• 28:41
  Speaker 1: a sudden they have to go for social services. they
• 28:44
  Speaker 1: would not be able to get social services. That's really
• 28:47
  Speaker 1: what this rule says. But let's hold it off to
• 28:50
  Speaker 1: a different day, because up next, apparently there are people
• 28:54
  Speaker 1: who are trying to live a life by going into
• 28:58
  Speaker 1: the sewers and scavenging for materials. Yes, another group has
• 29:03
  Speaker 1: surfaced in Middle Village. There was one out in Long Island.
• 29:06
  Speaker 1: It's a growing effort. And I'll update you, it's probably
• 29:10
  Speaker 1: the only person in talk radio who's actually been down
• 29:13
  Speaker 1: in the sewers. Right now, though, know that we have
• 29:18
  Speaker 1: an iHeartRadio musical festival presented by Capital One. This Friday
• 29:23
  Speaker 1: and Saturday night, streaming live on Disney Plus and Hulu
• 29:28
  Speaker 1: for the T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas. We've got the
• 29:31
  Speaker 1: biggest names across all styles of music together on one
• 29:34
  Speaker 1: stage and one weekend, including Benson Boone, the Google Dolls,
• 29:38
  Speaker 1: Kenny Chesney, Laney Wilson, and more. Plus, never-before-seen artist collaborations
• 29:43
  Speaker 1: and a once-in-a-lifetime moment you'll never see again. Experience the
• 29:47
  Speaker 1: show live all weekend long. Stream it only on Disney +,
• 29:51
  Speaker 1: and Hulu, and listen on Hit Nation on the free
• 29:54
  Speaker 1: iHeartRadio app this Friday and Saturday night. The mole people
• 29:59
  Speaker 1: are at it again. coming out of sewers at four
• 30:02
  Speaker 1: o'clock in the morning, coming to a neighborhood near you.
• 30:05
  Speaker 1: They hit Middle Village at four in the morning. One
• 30:09
  Speaker 1: guy was seen getting out. He had the light on
• 30:12
  Speaker 1: his head. He had the gear on. And there were
• 30:14
  Speaker 1: four other guys surrounding him as he was working his
• 30:18
  Speaker 1: way out of the sewer hole. And then they jumped
• 30:21
  Speaker 1: into a car and they disappeared. This coming on the
• 30:24
  Speaker 1: heels of in late August, even out of Nassau County
• 30:27
  Speaker 1: in Wontoree. where they came out with headlamps, looked like
• 30:31
  Speaker 1: they were doing some kind of work in the sewer.
• 30:33
  Speaker 1: Before that, Madison Square Garden by Penn Station, four in
• 30:37
  Speaker 1: the morning, Gravesend and Williamsburg before that. So clearly, this
• 30:42
  Speaker 1: is like a cottage industry. So with so many of
• 30:45
  Speaker 1: these situations taking place, I'm somewhat of an expert having
• 30:49
  Speaker 1: been down in the sewers, you know, where you have sewage,
• 30:52
  Speaker 1: you have water pipes, and then the other sewers have
• 30:55
  Speaker 1: to do with Verizon cables, gas lines, especially in Manhattan,
• 31:00
  Speaker 1: you know, steam, because that's how they that's how they
• 31:03
  Speaker 1: heat up all these buildings, is that they must be
• 31:06
  Speaker 1: scavenging because they got their headlights on. It's as if
• 31:09
  Speaker 1: they were in a coal mine in western Pennsylvania. No
• 31:12
  Speaker 1: parakeet there because the gases down there can sometimes asphyxiate you.
• 31:18
  Speaker 1: But they don't seem to have a handle as to
• 31:20
  Speaker 1: who they are and who are they fencing. whatever products. Now,
• 31:24
  Speaker 1: maybe the reason they picked Middle Village, maybe, I have
• 31:27
  Speaker 1: no idea. But recently, remember, that was hit with floods.
• 31:31
  Speaker 1: So a lot of stuff was floating around all over
• 31:34
  Speaker 1: the place from basements and first floors, maybe a value
• 31:38
  Speaker 1: that then went down into the catch basins and get
• 31:41
  Speaker 1: lodged down in the sewers because they have screens down there.
• 31:44
  Speaker 1: So maybe that's why they picked that location. But boy,
• 31:48
  Speaker 1: you would think that by now they would have a
• 31:51
  Speaker 1: handle on this, both the Department of Environmental Protection that
• 31:56
  Speaker 1: manages the sewer systems and obviously the NYPD. But no,
• 32:00
  Speaker 1: they could be coming out of a sewer cap near
• 32:02
  Speaker 1: you and your neighborhood, but usually about four in the
• 32:05
  Speaker 1: morning when there's shift change with the police department.
• 32:08
  Speaker 2: Now, CBS reported last night that they did grab a
• 32:12
  Speaker 2: couple of these guys. They let them go, but they
• 32:14
  Speaker 2: grabbed a couple of these guys, and they said they
• 32:16
  Speaker 2: were down there looking for treasure, which I don't understand
• 32:20
  Speaker 2: why there's no charges for that. I don't get it,
• 32:23
  Speaker 2: but they were apparently just let go. I'm fascinated by
• 32:28
  Speaker 2: these people. You were the first one to talk about them,
• 32:30
  Speaker 2: and I'm fascinated by these people. If I was a
• 32:34
  Speaker 2: movie producer, I'd be thinking, this is a movie.
• 32:37
  Speaker 19: Yeah.
• 32:38
  Speaker 2: This would be a great— what an incredible— for any kind of movie,
• 32:43
  Speaker 2: whether you just want to talk about them and what
• 32:45
  Speaker 2: they do and looking for treasure and end with them
• 32:48
  Speaker 2: finding treasure or not finding treasure or a murder mystery.
• 32:51
  Speaker 20: Ah, yeah.
• 32:52
  Speaker 1: Well, speaking of murders, as you know, in New York,
• 32:54
  Speaker 1: you could pretty much kill somebody and get released, right?
• 32:57
  Speaker 1: Not even get a ticket. That's true. You know, no
• 32:59
  Speaker 1: cash bail. So it is interesting that if you had
• 33:03
  Speaker 1: the four originally that you grabbed and you questioned them
• 33:07
  Speaker 1: and hopefully they got their ID, they'd be staying in
• 33:10
  Speaker 1: touch with them and say, hey, you know, guys, we
• 33:13
  Speaker 1: did you a solid. It's got to be part of
• 33:16
  Speaker 1: a network. It's got to be a place that you
• 33:18
  Speaker 1: fence this stuff. It's not like you walk into a
• 33:21
  Speaker 1: pawn shop and you say, hey, well, what can you
• 33:23
  Speaker 1: give me for this? So they probably have a wholesaler
• 33:26
  Speaker 1: out there who's pretty much telling these guys when they
• 33:28
  Speaker 1: scavenge down in the stores. And some of them probably
• 33:31
  Speaker 1: haven't been picked up yet on video is what do
• 33:35
  Speaker 1: you got? And then they negotiate a price. But I'm
• 33:38
  Speaker 1: thinking middle village because they got hit bad with floods.
• 33:41
  Speaker 1: They always do. But then you lose stuff from your basement,
• 33:45
  Speaker 1: first floor. A lot of times it goes in a sewer,
• 33:47
  Speaker 1: the catch basin. And so they figure, like, we're prospecting.
• 33:50
  Speaker 2: That makes a whole lot of sense. Now, you've been
• 33:52
  Speaker 2: on top of this story, so great job. Because I
• 33:55
  Speaker 2: think it's going to turn into something much bigger than
• 33:58
  Speaker 2: this if it just keeps happening.
• 33:59
  Speaker 1: I'm thinking maybe I'll do a YouTube special. I'll go
• 34:02
  Speaker 1: down there and find these guys and just throw it
• 34:04
  Speaker 1: up on YouTube. You don't even have to have a
• 34:06
  Speaker 1: movie or a documentary or anything like that. Well, you
• 34:09
  Speaker 1: know you're not going to get arrested, so. Exactly.
• 34:11
  Speaker 2: They're not going to charge you with anything.
• 34:13
  Speaker 4: Nothing.
• 34:14
  Speaker 1: You can do anything in New York City and you
• 34:16
  Speaker 1: never get charged.
• 34:17
  Speaker 2: Hey, coming up in the next hour, I came in
• 34:20
  Speaker 2: as both Natalie and Curtis can tell you, I was
• 34:23
  Speaker 2: irate this morning because of a story that that has
• 34:26
  Speaker 2: not been covered. And it's not been covered, you can
• 34:29
  Speaker 2: guess why, for all the wrong reasons. We're going to
• 34:31
  Speaker 2: be talking about that later in the next hour. But
• 34:35
  Speaker 2: coming up next, we're going to be talking about the
• 34:40
  Speaker 2: mystery deepening, first of all, but also John Decker is
• 34:43
  Speaker 2: going to be talking about what else. That's all they're
• 34:45
  Speaker 2: talking about in Washington right now, AI. John Decker coming
• 34:49
  Speaker 2: up next. It's 7 o'clock. Well, everybody across the country,
• 34:53
  Speaker 2: and especially in Washington, D.C., is now talking about AI
• 34:57
  Speaker 2: and the potential future dangers of AI. So let's bring
• 35:00
  Speaker 2: in John Decker, WOR White House and Washington correspondent, host
• 35:05
  Speaker 2: of the podcast, The White House Briefing Room with John Decker,
• 35:09
  Speaker 2: which can be found on the iHeartRadio app, because Donald
• 35:12
  Speaker 2: Trump certainly has weighed in on this issue. But Congress...
• 35:17
  Speaker 2: also wants to get involved. And John, AI has become
• 35:21
  Speaker 2: the issue of the week ever since several of the
• 35:24
  Speaker 2: people in the industry are issuing warnings about going too
• 35:28
  Speaker 2: quickly with AI. What does the president have to say
• 35:32
  Speaker 2: about it, and what is Congress talking about doing?
• 35:35
  Speaker 9: Well, you're absolutely right, Larry. This issue rose to the
• 35:38
  Speaker 9: forefront because a number of tech leaders, including Elon Musk,
• 35:42
  Speaker 9: are calling for federal regulations concerning AI. They're concerned about
• 35:47
  Speaker 9: their own industry. Anthropic CEO put out a statement that
• 35:51
  Speaker 9: got a lot of attention over the weekend, and that
• 35:53
  Speaker 9: also drew the attention of President Trump. And so what
• 35:56
  Speaker 9: he's saying is he doesn't believe there should be any guardrails.
• 36:00
  Speaker 9: He doesn't believe there should be.
• 36:02
  Speaker 4: Any federal regulations. And the reason he.
• 36:04
  Speaker 9: Says that, Larry, is because he believes it's a national
• 36:08
  Speaker 9: security issue as it relates to the U.S., and the competition...
• 36:12
  Speaker 9: that the U.S. has with China. So the president has
• 36:16
  Speaker 9: weighed in on this. Nine social media posts on this
• 36:20
  Speaker 9: topic alone yesterday. And I don't.
• 36:23
  Speaker 4: Think we're done with it.
• 36:24
  Speaker 9: And of course, keep in mind, Larry, that next week,
• 36:27
  Speaker 9: President Trump will meet with President Xi Jinping at the
• 36:30
  Speaker 9: White House. He's hosting him for a state visit. This
• 36:33
  Speaker 9: topic will certainly be on the agenda.
• 36:35
  Speaker 1: Now, John Decker, he was really harsh in his commentary.
• 36:39
  Speaker 1: He said, meaning the president, He dismissed safety concerns as
• 36:43
  Speaker 1: a hoax. Now, we've heard that term used before. The
• 36:49
  Speaker 1: president is bright. He knows about a lot of things
• 36:52
  Speaker 1: in life. But there aren't that many of us Americans
• 36:55
  Speaker 1: that know much about AI, including the president. This might
• 36:58
  Speaker 1: be an opportunity for the vice president, J.D. Vance, who
• 37:02
  Speaker 1: spent a lot of time in Silicon Valley, was helped
• 37:05
  Speaker 1: by Peter Thiel and others. He knows all these players.
• 37:09
  Speaker 1: to basically delegate this to him. I mean, this is,
• 37:13
  Speaker 1: I would say, J.D. Vance's strength, not negotiating peace with Iran,
• 37:18
  Speaker 1: and let him try to figure out something with the
• 37:21
  Speaker 1: CEO executives who seem to be warning us. I mean,
• 37:25
  Speaker 1: normally companies don't warn you about problems because they don't
• 37:30
  Speaker 1: want government interference. These guys are pretty much saying, no,
• 37:34
  Speaker 1: we need government to get involved. I think that might
• 37:37
  Speaker 1: be the better route.
• 37:39
  Speaker 4: Well, you know, I think that is a good idea.
• 37:42
  Speaker 9: You might be right. Right now, as you know, what
• 37:46
  Speaker 9: the vice president's main task is, is ferreting out fraud
• 37:51
  Speaker 9: in the government. We'll see if the president also tasks
• 37:54
  Speaker 9: him with this. But I think the president's comments that
• 37:58
  Speaker 9: he made in Ireland over the weekend and then those
• 38:01
  Speaker 9: truth social posts have made it pretty clear that even
• 38:04
  Speaker 9: if he delegates this issue to the vice president, The
• 38:08
  Speaker 9: president has made it clear he doesn't.
• 38:10
  Speaker 4: See any need for federal regulation. Zero.
• 38:13
  Speaker 9: And as a result, I think that if any legislation
• 38:16
  Speaker 9: were somehow to make it out of Congress, and we're
• 38:19
  Speaker 9: still in the early stages of that, it's pretty clear
• 38:22
  Speaker 9: that President Trump would veto that legislation.
• 38:25
  Speaker 2: Let's get to the Supreme Court for a second, because
• 38:27
  Speaker 2: just in case that nobody knows, you're a constitutional attorney
• 38:30
  Speaker 2: as well. And the Supreme Court blocked sweeping mail ballot
• 38:34
  Speaker 2: restrictions for midterm elections, including giving the U.S. Post Office
• 38:39
  Speaker 2: more power. But they were pretty definitive. The vote was
• 38:44
  Speaker 2: very lopsided. So tell us what they said, why they
• 38:47
  Speaker 2: came up with this ruling.
• 38:50
  Speaker 9: Well, this was a majority opinion signed on to essentially
• 38:53
  Speaker 9: by seven justices, two justices dissented, an eight-word dissent written
• 38:59
  Speaker 9: by Samuel Alito, joined by Clarence Thomas. And what they
• 39:03
  Speaker 9: essentially said was they will let a lower court's ruling
• 39:08
  Speaker 9: on this issue to stand, which means that the president's
• 39:12
  Speaker 9: executive order will not take hold. It will not be implemented.
• 39:17
  Speaker 9: And that would have involved the U.S. Postal Service, their
• 39:21
  Speaker 9: involvement with mail ballots for this election cycle, for the midterms. Now,
• 39:26
  Speaker 9: the interesting thing here is they were only ruled on
• 39:30
  Speaker 9: whether or not that injunction should remain in place. And
• 39:35
  Speaker 9: that's where that 7-2 decision came into play. But what
• 39:39
  Speaker 9: they did not rule on is whether the executive order
• 39:42
  Speaker 9: itself is or is not constitutional. And I think that
• 39:46
  Speaker 9: what the president's executive order... It's still out there.
• 39:50
  Speaker 4: It's going to be litigated.
• 39:51
  Speaker 9: And in fact, some of the things that are contained
• 39:54
  Speaker 9: in that executive order could indeed, Larry and Curtis, be
• 39:58
  Speaker 9: implemented in time for the 2028 presidential election. So the
• 40:02
  Speaker 9: focus here is whether or not essentially the post office
• 40:05
  Speaker 9: had the time to implement what was contained in that
• 40:10
  Speaker 9: executive order. And a majority of the court said they
• 40:13
  Speaker 9: did not have the time and they did not want
• 40:15
  Speaker 9: to impact this upcoming election in that way.
• 40:18
  Speaker 1: Now, John Decker, just to try to simplify this, because
• 40:23
  Speaker 1: there have been so many courts involved in this process
• 40:26
  Speaker 1: and now, obviously, the United States Supreme Court. This cycle
• 40:30
  Speaker 1: with the midterms, about one-third of Americans now vote by mail.
• 40:34
  Speaker 1: They have that as a choice. That's all going to
• 40:37
  Speaker 1: be the same. None of that is going to change
• 40:40
  Speaker 1: on November 3rd?
• 40:43
  Speaker 9: Not one bit of it's going to change for November
• 40:46
  Speaker 9: 3rd for the midterm.
• 40:47
  Speaker 4: So if the president was.
• 40:48
  Speaker 9: Trying to, and he was trying to affect the way
• 40:52
  Speaker 9: that mail ballots are counted and cast, he is not
• 40:57
  Speaker 9: going to be successful in that endeavor, at least for
• 41:00
  Speaker 9: the 2026 midterm election. He could ultimately be successful. We'll
• 41:05
  Speaker 9: have to wait and see as it relates to the
• 41:07
  Speaker 9: way ballots are cast for 2028, the presidential election year.
• 41:12
  Speaker 4: That would give the states.
• 41:16
  Speaker 9: Enough time to implement the changes that would be necessary
• 41:21
  Speaker 9: in order to comply with that executive order.
• 41:23
  Speaker 2: Well, the Republicans in the Senate have to be happy
• 41:26
  Speaker 2: they got one more vote back. Mitch McConnell has returned,
• 41:30
  Speaker 2: and I know you can't be everywhere at once, but
• 41:33
  Speaker 2: did you by any chance happen to see him?
• 41:37
  Speaker 4: I have not.
• 41:37
  Speaker 9: I'm not on that side of Pennsylvania Avenue.
• 41:40
  Speaker 4: I'm at the White House. I saw the video.
• 41:42
  Speaker 9: I saw the still photos of Mitch McConnell arriving back
• 41:46
  Speaker 9: after months. I think the last time that he cast
• 41:48
  Speaker 9: a vote was way back in June, if I'm not mistaken.
• 41:51
  Speaker 9: So it's been months since Mitch McConnell has been on
• 41:54
  Speaker 9: Capitol Hill.
• 41:55
  Speaker 4: Now he's back and now.
• 41:58
  Speaker 9: He can exercise his vote on behalf of the people
• 42:00
  Speaker 9: of Kentucky. Of course, he is not running for reelection.
• 42:04
  Speaker 9: There is an open seat uh, to serve six years, uh,
• 42:09
  Speaker 9: in Kentucky. And, uh, we'll see where that goes, but
• 42:11
  Speaker 9: Mitch McConnell is back and Republicans can now count on
• 42:14
  Speaker 9: his vote. Um, you know, in terms of the various
• 42:17
  Speaker 9: pieces of legislation that get voted upon between now and
• 42:20
  Speaker 9: the end of this term.
• 42:21
  Speaker 1: Now, John, give us a little insight. If you can,
• 42:24
  Speaker 1: the crown princess, Saudi Arabia and president Donald Trump have
• 42:27
  Speaker 1: a very good working relationship. Very good. Uh, apparently the
• 42:31
  Speaker 1: crown prince who's getting squeezed from all sides now by the, uh,
• 42:36
  Speaker 1: these sort of covert operations that Iran supports in Yemen
• 42:41
  Speaker 1: and also the Shia militias in Iraq, called up the
• 42:44
  Speaker 1: president twice, either before he went to Ireland or afterwards,
• 42:48
  Speaker 1: and said, help, we need military help. We've had to
• 42:53
  Speaker 1: stop pumping out any oil. We're the number one oil
• 42:57
  Speaker 1: exporter in the world. We've had to pretty much bring
• 42:59
  Speaker 1: that to a halt. Is it true that the president
• 43:02
  Speaker 1: said to the crown prince, no, you're not getting any
• 43:06
  Speaker 1: military assistance from us?
• 43:08
  Speaker 9: Well, I think that it's evident that the president said no,
• 43:11
  Speaker 9: because you don't see the U.S. military being moved or
• 43:15
  Speaker 9: repositioned in any way to help out Saudi Arabia deal
• 43:19
  Speaker 9: with their oil flow situation. As you know, the Houthi
• 43:24
  Speaker 9: rebels have attacked oil facilities that Saudi Arabia maintains.
• 43:30
  Speaker 4: Along the Red Sea. And that's problematic. And it's problematic.
• 43:34
  Speaker 9: You know, it's the reason why we've seen oil prices
• 43:37
  Speaker 9: tick up even higher just over the course of the
• 43:40
  Speaker 9: past few days because of these attacks by the Houthi
• 43:43
  Speaker 9: rebels on oil facilities that are maintained and owned by
• 43:47
  Speaker 9: Saudi Arabia.
• 43:48
  Speaker 2: You know, it's funny, I heard a whole lot of
• 43:51
  Speaker 2: dissension in the Republican Party and from Democrats, especially, who
• 43:55
  Speaker 2: were going very public with their dissension about that midterm convention.
• 44:00
  Speaker 2: But now, afterwards, I've talked to a couple of people
• 44:03
  Speaker 2: and they, even Democrats, say, hey, you know what, that's
• 44:06
  Speaker 2: a good idea. It actually turned out to be a
• 44:08
  Speaker 2: pretty good idea. Do you think we're going to see
• 44:10
  Speaker 2: a whole lot more of these in the future?
• 44:12
  Speaker 9: You know, it's a very good question. You know, I
• 44:16
  Speaker 9: think it really depends upon... you know, where we are
• 44:20
  Speaker 9: in any election cycle. Democrats, they considered it, this election cycle,
• 44:25
  Speaker 9: to match Republicans and have their own midterm convention. But
• 44:29
  Speaker 9: from their perspective, the dynamics were such that they felt
• 44:32
  Speaker 9: they already had the energy necessary on their part heading
• 44:36
  Speaker 9: into the midterms that a midterm convention like the Republicans
• 44:40
  Speaker 9: just had in Dallas wasn't necessary. Now, you know, things
• 44:43
  Speaker 9: can change.
• 44:44
  Speaker 4: Who knows what may happen? You know, we'd have to
• 44:46
  Speaker 4: look all the way.
• 44:47
  Speaker 9: Ahead to 2030, you know, in terms of the next
• 44:51
  Speaker 9: potential midterm convention. And maybe Democrats will rethink their decision
• 44:56
  Speaker 9: as to whether or not to hold one in 2030.
• 44:58
  Speaker 9: All right.
• 45:00
  Speaker 1: Do appreciate that, John Decker. Live White House correspondent for WOR.
• 45:06
  Speaker 1: Always has his finger on the pulse. We appreciate you
• 45:09
  Speaker 1: getting us updated.
• 45:11
  Speaker 4: Thanks, Curtis. Thanks, Larry.

  Speaker 1: been snatched up outside his bodega? Apparently, the woman in
• 45:26
  Speaker 1: question called. They were halfway there, and now they're not
• 45:32
  Speaker 1: halfway there anymore. What the hell went wrong? We'll give

• 46:21
  Speaker 2: Now another episode of the continuing story of Jabal the
• 46:26
  Speaker 2: kitten who was stolen or found, stolen or found, one
• 46:31
  Speaker 2: of the two, outside of a mini-mart, a bodega at
• 46:35
  Speaker 2: 8th Street in Park Slope. And the owner of the
• 46:40
  Speaker 2: place just loves the cats and the kittens. He had
• 46:43
  Speaker 2: one just die and then this new kitten that's three
• 46:46
  Speaker 2: months old reappeared in his life. So Imadi Nob was heartbroken.
• 46:53
  Speaker 2: And a lot of people did stories on him. He
• 46:55
  Speaker 2: was on TV just almost crying about losing this kitten.
• 47:00
  Speaker 2: And then yesterday, he got an anonymous phone call.
• 47:05
  Speaker 21: She called me. She said, I'm going to bring you
• 47:08
  Speaker 21: the cat now.
• 47:10
  Speaker 4: I'm ready.
• 47:11
  Speaker 1: I have my clothes on.
• 47:12
  Speaker 18: I'm going to bring it to you.
• 47:14
  Speaker 1: How do you feel? I feel good.
• 47:15
  Speaker 4: I feel relaxed.
• 47:18
  Speaker 1: You know, relief, you know what I mean?
• 47:19
  Speaker 21: Did she say anything while she.
• 47:21
  Speaker 1: Picked up the cat?
• 47:22
  Speaker 22: I asked.
• 47:22
  Speaker 1: She said, I don't see no store. I said, you're lying.
• 47:25
  Speaker 21: There's one store there, and the guy who followed you
• 47:30
  Speaker 21: told you the cat belongs to the store. And you
• 47:34
  Speaker 21: stole the cat, but you don't want to give it
• 47:36
  Speaker 21: to them. But say, anyway, anyway, I'm going to bring it.
• 47:39
  Speaker 2: So she was on her way over a moment ago.
• 47:42
  Speaker 2: Like when she first called, she said, I'm going to
• 47:45
  Speaker 2: bring it over right now. I'm on my way over.
• 47:47
  Speaker 2: Still hasn't shown up. What do you think happened?
• 47:50
  Speaker 1: Well, look, because he threw in, oh, you stole a cat.
• 47:54
  Speaker 1: She's thinking the entire NYPD is going to be there,
• 47:58
  Speaker 1: undercover officers outside.
• 48:00
  Speaker 22: Right, right, right.
• 48:00
  Speaker 1: It's like he should have just encouraged, oh, thank you,
• 48:04
  Speaker 1: thank you. Oh, I owe you everything in my life.
• 48:07
  Speaker 1: You know, one of those kind of things. But he
• 48:09
  Speaker 1: decided to throw that red flare up.
• 48:12
  Speaker 7: Not a good idea.
• 48:14
  Speaker 1: Oh, my God.
• 48:16
  Speaker 2: To his defense, I was going to say credit, but
• 48:20
  Speaker 2: to his defense.
• 48:22
  Speaker 1: He's upset.
• 48:23
  Speaker 6: Oh, of course.
• 48:23
  Speaker 1: He's upset. But you know what?
• 48:25
  Speaker 2: You heard the person with the cat say, I found it.
• 48:28
  Speaker 2: And he went, oh, no, no, no, you stole it.
• 48:30
  Speaker 4: Right.
• 48:31
  Speaker 2: I didn't know that somebody told them, went after them
• 48:35
  Speaker 2: when they had the cat and said, no, it belongs
• 48:37
  Speaker 2: to them. It belongs back there, and they kept taking
• 48:40
  Speaker 2: it anyway.
• 48:41
  Speaker 4: Right.
• 48:41
  Speaker 7: Get the cat back, then tell her that you stole
• 48:44
  Speaker 7: my cat.
• 48:45
  Speaker 2: It's easy to say afterwards.
• 48:46
  Speaker 15: I know.
• 48:47
  Speaker 6: Of course.
• 48:47
  Speaker 1: He was full of emotion.
• 48:48
  Speaker 8: I totally get why he said it. But now, no cat.
• 48:53
  Speaker 1: Many people listening out there have had this when their
• 48:55
  Speaker 1: cell phone is found, and somebody calls them up. Now,
• 48:59
  Speaker 1: was it stolen? Do they want a reward? What's the reason? Man,
• 49:04
  Speaker 1: you got to be so sugary sweet that if they
• 49:07
  Speaker 1: were a diabetic, they would have insulin shock. You just
• 49:10
  Speaker 1: want them to bring it. I know.
• 49:12
  Speaker 2: Well, we'll keep paying attention to find out when Jabal
• 49:16
  Speaker 2: finally comes home. But let's get to some talkbacks. The
• 49:19
  Speaker 2: first one... one about the return of Mitch McConnell.
• 49:22
  Speaker 18: Apparently, you haven't seen the video of Mitch McConnell. He
• 49:26
  Speaker 18: looks like Biden 2.0.
• 49:29
  Speaker 2: Well, no, at least he's walking.
• 49:30
  Speaker 1: Well, he wasn't walking. Biden is. Oh, Biden is, yeah.
• 49:34
  Speaker 2: Yeah, one of them was walking.
• 49:36
  Speaker 7: Mitch was in a wheelchair.
• 49:37
  Speaker 1: I know.
• 49:38
  Speaker 2: I know. But he was as good as Biden. Let's
• 49:41
  Speaker 2: put it that way.
• 49:42
  Speaker 19: Yeah, Larry and Curtis, this whole issue you're talking about
• 49:44
  Speaker 19: really shows the damage that the Biden administration's policy created
• 49:50
  Speaker 19: with allowing all of these people to come into the
• 49:54
  Speaker 19: country without the– historical requirement that they be as supportable
• 49:59
  Speaker 19: or support themselves. As a Judeo-Christian nation, we just can't
• 50:03
  Speaker 19: throw people out and treat them inhumanely.
• 50:06
  Speaker 4: But there is a tipping point, and that's the point
• 50:08
  Speaker 4: that we're at now.
• 50:09
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I concur. It used to be you had to
• 50:12
  Speaker 1: have a sponsor. You had to dot every I, cross
• 50:14
  Speaker 1: every T. And the sponsor was told, Larry, you know,
• 50:17
  Speaker 1: this family or this person that you're sponsoring is unemployed.
• 50:22
  Speaker 1: you're paying for all their services, food, clothing, housing, or
• 50:27
  Speaker 1: they go back.
• 50:27
  Speaker 4: Yeah.
• 50:28
  Speaker 2: Well, we're talking about this because Mamdani and Letitia James
• 50:31
  Speaker 2: and some other cities are going to sue the Trump
• 50:33
  Speaker 2: administration for expanding the public charge. And the public charge
• 50:37
  Speaker 2: is just, makes a lot of sense. Many countries have it.
• 50:40
  Speaker 2: If you come here, you have to be able to
• 50:41
  Speaker 2: support yourself. We're not going to pay for you. And
• 50:44
  Speaker 2: so the public charge now is saying, even if you're
• 50:46
  Speaker 2: here already, not if they accept you at the border
• 50:49
  Speaker 2: or you apply for a visa, Even if you're here already,
• 50:52
  Speaker 2: the public charge still goes into effect.
• 50:55
  Speaker 5: Funny, all of a sudden the Democrats made fun of
• 50:59
  Speaker 5: trickle-down economics.
• 51:00
  Speaker 13: Now it's going to be trickle-down that they're not going
• 51:01
  Speaker 13: to be able to.
• 51:03
  Speaker 4: Stay open to grocery stores.
• 51:04
  Speaker 23: They're such fake, phony forges, these Democrats.
• 51:07
  Speaker 4: Can't stand them.
• 51:09
  Speaker 2: You notice everybody uses your terms?
• 51:11
  Speaker 1: Well, actually, that's Bob Grant. Oh, is it really?
• 51:14
  Speaker 4: Oh, yes.
• 51:15
  Speaker 1: You fake, phony, fraudulent, forgated... I use a lot of grantism.
• 51:22
  Speaker 1: And I always give them credit. I always give them credit.
• 51:24
  Speaker 2: That's wonderful.
• 51:25
  Speaker 5: I would rather pay for people's health care and food
• 51:28
  Speaker 5: than bombs.
• 51:30
  Speaker 20: Huh.
• 51:31
  Speaker 1: That's an interesting... You'd rather pay for the illegals or
• 51:35
  Speaker 1: those who are here, haven't yet gotten their green card
• 51:38
  Speaker 1: or visa. You'd rather pay for all their amenities rather
• 51:42
  Speaker 1: than bombs.
• 51:43
  Speaker 19: Well.
• 51:44
  Speaker 1: We need bombs now because we've depleted. Our source of
• 51:49
  Speaker 1: defensive weaponry is depleted. We need bombs.
• 51:51
  Speaker 2: You know why everybody wants to come here? Because of
• 51:53
  Speaker 2: the bombs. Because we keep everyone else. We're the strongest
• 51:58
  Speaker 2: country in the world, and we get to thrive, and
• 52:01
  Speaker 2: we get to do basically what we want because of
• 52:03
  Speaker 2: those bombs.
• 52:05
  Speaker 5: About this whole Thomas Matthew Crooks thing, all I can
• 52:10
  Speaker 5: say is his last name is Crooks. And the Secret
• 52:14
  Speaker 5: Service director at the time's name was Cheadle. You got
• 52:18
  Speaker 5: a crook and a cheat. That's all you really got
• 52:21
  Speaker 5: to say.
• 52:22
  Speaker 1: And a new wrinkle, Larry, from what we were talking
• 52:25
  Speaker 1: about early now that the Graslie Commission and the Senate
• 52:28
  Speaker 1: has released documents about who this kid was and the family.
• 52:33
  Speaker 1: Somebody anonymously paid for the 10 days later that you
• 52:39
  Speaker 1: talked about where the body was taken from the coroner.
• 52:43
  Speaker 1: And then it was cremated. Anonymous. We want to find
• 52:48
  Speaker 1: out who Mr. Anonymous is. But up next, this is
• 52:53
  Speaker 1: real serious to you. You've been talking about this all morning.
• 52:57
  Speaker 1: And but first, let's get our updated news from Nadia.
• 53:01
  Speaker 23: Okay.
• 53:02
  Speaker 13: That sounds good.
• 53:05
  Speaker 22: Hello, Nadia.
• 53:06
  Speaker 1: Oh, come on. Give him credit. He tried. He tried.
• 53:08
  Speaker 1: Nadia Comaneci. Nadia Comaneci. I love Nadia Comaneci.
• 53:13
  Speaker 4: Wait a second.
• 53:14
  Speaker 1: So I'll take that as.
• 53:14
  Speaker 2: Let's take a pause for a second. Let's all do
• 53:16
  Speaker 2: it together.
• 53:17
  Speaker 20: You ready?
• 53:17
  Speaker 2: Daria.
• 53:18
  Speaker 9: Daria.
• 53:19
  Speaker 1: Daria.
• 53:20
  Speaker 12: So, Curtis, you can call me whatever you want.
• 53:23
  Speaker 1: You know I love you. Oh, watch that.
• 53:25
  Speaker 2: Be careful with that.
• 53:27
  Speaker 12: As long as it's, you know, within broadcast standards. It'll
• 53:31
  Speaker 12: be sunny and cooler today. It's going to feel like fall.
• 53:34
  Speaker 12: I have 71 degrees. So here's a question that a
• 53:37
  Speaker 12: lot of parents are wondering about. How much screen time
• 53:40
  Speaker 12: is too much in public schools? We know about the
• 53:43
  Speaker 12: limits on AI that are now taking effect in the
• 53:45
  Speaker 12: New York City public schools. And now the city council
• 53:48
  Speaker 12: wants to take it a step further, and they're going
• 53:50
  Speaker 12: to discuss it at a public hearing later today. There
• 53:52
  Speaker 12: are some council members... And a number of parents who
• 53:54
  Speaker 12: are taking issue with the use of things like YouTube
• 53:57
  Speaker 12: and what's known as gamified learning in the classroom. They're
• 54:00
  Speaker 12: worried that it gets kids hooked too early. A former
• 54:03
  Speaker 12: Columbia University student is suing the school. Mahmoud Khalil says
• 54:06
  Speaker 12: it failed to protect him and other pro-Palestinian protesters.
• 54:10
  Speaker 24: Khalil, who spent 104 days in immigration jail and whose
• 54:14
  Speaker 24: deportation case remains active... filed suit Monday in federal court.
• 54:20
  Speaker 24: It says Columbia's deliberate indifference led to Khalil's detention by
• 54:24
  Speaker 24: ICE and to the doxing of other group members. The suit,
• 54:28
  Speaker 24: accusing Columbia of civil rights violations, seeks to restore Khalil's
• 54:33
  Speaker 24: access to the Manhattan campus and monetary damages. Andrew Whitman,
• 54:38
  Speaker 24: WOR News.
• 54:39
  Speaker 12: Senator Mitch McConnell returned to the U.S. Senate for the
• 54:41
  Speaker 12: first time since June. He was in a wheelchair yesterday.
• 54:45
  Speaker 12: The 84-year-old is continuing to recover. after falling at his D.C.
• 54:48
  Speaker 1: Residence.
• 54:49
  Speaker 12: Well, get your appetite ready because the Carnegie Deli is
• 54:53
  Speaker 12: reopening today.
• 54:54
  Speaker 23: After closing for a decade, the famed deli is making
• 54:56
  Speaker 23: a return to 7th Avenue, just steps away from its
• 54:59
  Speaker 23: original location that first opened in 1937. The Carnegie Deli
• 55:04
  Speaker 23: announced its return last month, putting up signage at its
• 55:07
  Speaker 23: location between 53rd and 54th Streets. The 2,500-square-foot restaurant has
• 55:12
  Speaker 23: 110 seats, with a menu offering popular pastrami and corned
• 55:16
  Speaker 23: beef sandwiches on rye, all-beef hot dogs, and cheesecake.
• 55:21
  Speaker 3: In New York, I'm Natalie Migliore.
• 55:23
  Speaker 12: And I'm hungry already. Today is National Voter Registration Day.
• 55:26
  Speaker 12: It was created in 2012 with the goal of trying
• 55:29
  Speaker 12: to get as many Americans registered to vote as possible
• 55:33
  Speaker 12: before an upcoming election. The Yankees are in the playoffs
• 55:36
  Speaker 12: with a win over Minneapolis. The Mets are out after
• 55:39
  Speaker 12: a loss to Baltimore. And Kansas City wins Monday night football.
• 55:43
  Speaker 12: Next news, 8 o'clock bulletins at once. I'm Daria Albinger.
• 55:47
  Speaker 1: On 710WOR.
• 55:48
  Speaker 2: Thank you, Daria. If you're in the car and you're
• 55:50
  Speaker 2: about to get where you're going, stay in the car.
• 55:53
  Speaker 2: If you were going to change the channel for any reason, don't.
• 55:57
  Speaker 2: Because when we come back from a short break, I'm
• 56:00
  Speaker 2: going to fill you in on a story that when
• 56:02
  Speaker 2: I heard about it made me absolutely furious because nobody
• 56:08
  Speaker 2: is covering it. And it deserves to be covered. Wait
• 56:13
  Speaker 2: until you hear the details of this story It is
• 56:17
  Speaker 2: absolutely sickening. Details after the break. I'm about to tell
• 56:21
  Speaker 2: you a story that is so sick, so horrendous, it's
• 56:25
  Speaker 2: hard to believe that it even happened. Sick and horrendous,
• 56:29
  Speaker 2: but it's also harder to believe that you're just hearing
• 56:33
  Speaker 2: about it now because it happened last week, on Wednesday
• 56:36
  Speaker 2: of last week. September 8th. Maybe that was earlier than Wednesday, actually.
• 56:43
  Speaker 2: But Once you hear the story, you can't forget it.
• 56:47
  Speaker 2: And once you hear the story, I hope you're just
• 56:49
  Speaker 2: as outraged as I am with the media in New
• 56:53
  Speaker 2: York and Philadelphia and the national media who just ignored
• 56:57
  Speaker 2: this story. And when I give you the details, you'll
• 57:00
  Speaker 2: figure out for your own why they ignored the story.
• 57:05
  Speaker 2: So it was Tuesday.
• 57:08
  Speaker 1: Early morning.
• 57:10
  Speaker 2: September 8th.
• 57:12
  Speaker 4: It was.
• 57:13
  Speaker 2: Just after midnight, when somebody broke into a window on
• 57:18
  Speaker 2: the second floor of a home in Washington Borough in
• 57:23
  Speaker 2: Warren Township, New Jersey. Yeah? In New Jersey. Really close by.
• 57:29
  Speaker 2: He kidnapped a six-year-old girl. And the parents, who check
• 57:34
  Speaker 2: on their child all the time, opened the door, didn't
• 57:37
  Speaker 2: see her there, called the police frantically. They put out
• 57:40
  Speaker 2: a search to find her. They found her about an
• 57:44
  Speaker 2: hour later, walking on the street, crying. All she had
• 57:49
  Speaker 2: on was her t-shirt, no pants, and blood running down
• 57:54
  Speaker 2: her leg. She had been abducted and raped. Six years old,
• 58:03
  Speaker 2: abducted and raped. It took about 30 hours, 32 hours
• 58:08
  Speaker 2: to be exact. with several forces, and they don't mention this,
• 58:13
  Speaker 2: but I'm sure ICE was involved in a story like
• 58:17
  Speaker 2: this because the local police, they were reaching out to everyone,
• 58:21
  Speaker 2: even though they're not supposed to in New Jersey because
• 58:25
  Speaker 2: it's a sanctuary state and they need to protect people
• 58:29
  Speaker 2: who are not here legally. His name is Lester Noe
• 58:36
  Speaker 2: Perez Amador. 27 years old, and he's in the country illegally.
• 58:45
  Speaker 2: ICE knew about him, certainly. He now faces several charges,
• 58:49
  Speaker 2: including rape, including kidnapping, with intent to harm. He will
• 58:57
  Speaker 2: spend the rest of his life in prison, so I
• 59:00
  Speaker 2: doubt he's ever going to be deported because he's going
• 59:03
  Speaker 2: to be in the prison system here. But you're hearing
• 59:09
  Speaker 2: this story probably for the first time, right? And that's
• 59:13
  Speaker 2: why I'm enraged. Not a TV station in New York
• 59:17
  Speaker 2: covered this story.
• 59:19
  Speaker 20: Not one.
• 59:19
  Speaker 1: Go ahead. Do a search.
• 59:21
  Speaker 2: Not one. Don't you think this is big enough of
• 59:25
  Speaker 2: a story for that? Don't you think that this should
• 59:28
  Speaker 2: have been leading every newscast in this town?
• 59:33
  Speaker 1: Nobody.
• 59:34
  Speaker 2: And please, check the New York papers.
• 59:36
  Speaker 1: See if you can find it.
• 59:38
  Speaker 2: Nobody covered it. In Philadelphia, same thing. Same thing. The
• 59:45
  Speaker 2: only place we could find stories was patch locally, a
• 59:49
  Speaker 2: local radio station. NJ.com finally picked it up. And after
• 59:55
  Speaker 2: several days, Fox News picked it up and the Fox
• 59:58
  Speaker 2: station in Philadelphia did a reader. ABC, NBC, CBS, New
• 1:00:07
  Speaker 2: York Times, none of them, Philadelphia Inquirer, none of them
• 1:00:13
  Speaker 2: covered the story. They ignored it. So why do you
• 1:00:16
  Speaker 2: think that's the case? In a story like this, which
• 1:00:20
  Speaker 2: should be, by the way, a national story, the networks
• 1:00:24
  Speaker 2: are just as much to blame.
• 1:00:25
  Speaker 1: This has all the markings. Trust me.
• 1:00:28
  Speaker 2: I was in news departments, both network and local, for
• 1:00:32
  Speaker 2: 40 years. This is an enormous story. This is a
• 1:00:36
  Speaker 2: story that will touch every single person that hears it.
• 1:00:41
  Speaker 2: And they'll be aghast. But nobody covered it.
• 1:00:44
  Speaker 4: Why?
• 1:00:45
  Speaker 2: You know the answer. You already know the answer.
• 1:00:48
  Speaker 1: It's political.
• 1:00:50
  Speaker 2: It was purely political. No one wanted the backlash from
• 1:00:55
  Speaker 2: saying that this person should never have been in this country.
• 1:00:59
  Speaker 2: That's where we're at right now. Where the media, even
• 1:01:04
  Speaker 2: local media, they're taking sides on this issue. Shame on them.
• 1:01:09
  Speaker 2: Shame on them.
• 1:01:11
  Speaker 1: Do me a favor.
• 1:01:11
  Speaker 2: Would you call? Call all of the local stations. And
• 1:01:16
  Speaker 2: tell them how upset you are that they didn't cover
• 1:01:21
  Speaker 2: the story of what happened in Washington Borough and Warren County.
• 1:01:25
  Speaker 2: That they didn't care anything about this little girl. They
• 1:01:28
  Speaker 2: cared more about a 27-year-old rapist who shouldn't even be
• 1:01:32
  Speaker 2: in the country. Let me give you some names, by
• 1:01:35
  Speaker 2: the way. Instead of just calling the listener line, ask
• 1:01:37
  Speaker 2: for John Antonio at WABC. He's the general manager. Ask
• 1:01:42
  Speaker 2: for Sarah Burke at CBS. She is the News director,
• 1:01:47
  Speaker 2: ask for Anna Hernandez at WNBC. That's the news director.
• 1:01:53
  Speaker 2: Ask for Ben Dobson of WPIX or ask for Imad
• 1:01:58
  Speaker 2: Ashgar of Fox.
• 1:02:00
  Speaker 1: 5 New York.
• 1:02:01
  Speaker 2: Maybe you won't remember the names, but just call and
• 1:02:04
  Speaker 2: ask for the news director and tell them how upset
• 1:02:07
  Speaker 2: you are that this story wasn't covered. And then ask
• 1:02:10
  Speaker 2: them why. Ask them if they knew about it and
• 1:02:14
  Speaker 2: why they ignored it. this little girl, she, this little
• 1:02:20
  Speaker 2: girl deserved.
• 1:02:21
  Speaker 1: A lot better.
• 1:02:23
  Speaker 2: Than what she got from the state of New Jersey
• 1:02:27
  Speaker 2: and its sanctuary city policy to the people who run
• 1:02:31
  Speaker 2: these stations and don't care to everybody involved in this
• 1:02:36
  Speaker 2: story who look the other way. Shame on you.
• 1:02:42
  Speaker 1: Well done. Well done, Larry. One, one, um, Point of information,
• 1:02:46
  Speaker 1: when you say a station does a reader, what does
• 1:02:49
  Speaker 1: that mean?
• 1:02:51
  Speaker 2: That means that they don't send a reporter, that they
• 1:02:54
  Speaker 2: take the facts of the story. And sometimes what they'll
• 1:02:57
  Speaker 2: do is they'll just cover it with some pictures that
• 1:03:00
  Speaker 2: are generic. So they don't even send a reporter. So
• 1:03:03
  Speaker 2: they heard about it. They said, so God bless the
• 1:03:07
  Speaker 2: one Fox station in Philadelphia that picked it up. They
• 1:03:09
  Speaker 2: saw it on the network and said, oh, we should
• 1:03:11
  Speaker 2: be covering this story. But Fox News was the only
• 1:03:14
  Speaker 2: network that covered this. No local station sent a reporter
• 1:03:17
  Speaker 2: and covered this, not one. No local newspaper, except for NJ.com,
• 1:03:22
  Speaker 2: did pick it up, did this. Thank God for Patch.
• 1:03:26
  Speaker 2: Thank God for whoever wrote that story for Patch out
• 1:03:29
  Speaker 2: in Warren County, because that's how the information got out. Otherwise,
• 1:03:32
  Speaker 2: this would have been buried. And for all the wrong reasons,
• 1:03:36
  Speaker 2: not for the victim, but to protect the assailant, to
• 1:03:40
  Speaker 2: protect the rapist. I can't tell you how upset I
• 1:03:45
  Speaker 2: am at this story. I'm so embarrassed by the media
• 1:03:48
  Speaker 2: right now. I'm embarrassed what happened to the whole country.
• 1:03:52
  Speaker 2: How people are now deciding on whether to cover a
• 1:03:56
  Speaker 2: story because of political leanings. We're lost. You don't want
• 1:04:02
  Speaker 2: to talk about a threat to democracy? That's the threat
• 1:04:05
  Speaker 2: to democracy. We're lost if we don't have a free
• 1:04:09
  Speaker 2: and fair media. And I think we lost that long ago.
• 1:04:13
  Speaker 1: Well done, Larry. Well done. Up next, Natalie Migliore down
• 1:04:18
  Speaker 1: in the streets about the issue that John Decker said
• 1:04:21
  Speaker 1: is number one on the lips of everybody in D.C.,
• 1:04:26
  Speaker 1: artificial intelligence.
• 1:04:33
  Speaker 2: And I want to talk to you about the CC
• 1:04:35
  Speaker 2: Radio 3. It's the almost everything radio. With the addition
• 1:04:39
  Speaker 2: of Bluetooth, you now have an immense palette of radio
• 1:04:42
  Speaker 2: stations and podcasts available from any smartphone or speaker. The
• 1:04:47
  Speaker 2: CC Radio 3 has great reception for long-range AM-FM stations,
• 1:04:51
  Speaker 2: along with emergency capabilities like NOAA weather and the 2-meter handband.
• 1:04:56
  Speaker 2: Reliable communication and staying connected is essential during unforeseen events.
• 1:05:01
  Speaker 2: If you listen primarily to voice content, the CC Radio
• 1:05:06
  Speaker 2: 3 is arguably worth the price alone. Audio quality for
• 1:05:10
  Speaker 2: the spoken word sounds like the host is sitting right
• 1:05:12
  Speaker 2: next to you. Separate bass and treble controls let you
• 1:05:15
  Speaker 2: customize the sound for clear, natural audio. It runs on
• 1:05:20
  Speaker 2: the included power cord or a set of batteries for
• 1:05:23
  Speaker 2: over 170 hours. So to order the CC Radio 3,
• 1:05:27
  Speaker 2: call C-Crane at 800-522-8863. Once again, that's 800-522-8863, or visit
• 1:05:35
  Speaker 2: them online at ccrane.com. It's also available on Amazon.
• 1:05:41
  Speaker 1: Now, it's 710 WOR Speed on the Street with Natalie Migliore. Ah, Natalie,
• 1:05:49
  Speaker 1: back from the streets, questioning people about the talk of
• 1:05:53
  Speaker 1: the nation, artificial intelligence. But first... What was the actual
• 1:05:59
  Speaker 1: intelligence of the people you were talking to today? Because
• 1:06:02
  Speaker 1: it varies from day to day. They were all right.
• 1:06:04
  Speaker 23: I'm not, you know, at least I didn't run into
• 1:06:07
  Speaker 23: any robots, which I've been. Honestly, I actually went to
• 1:06:11
  Speaker 23: a restaurant the other night and they're using a robot
• 1:06:14
  Speaker 23: to serve people.
• 1:06:14
  Speaker 3: So it's very interesting.
• 1:06:16
  Speaker 1: Do you tip a robot?
• 1:06:17
  Speaker 23: That's what my fiance and I were talking about. I
• 1:06:19
  Speaker 23: was like, what do you do when I want to?
• 1:06:23
  Speaker 23: Like when a robot brings you your food.
• 1:06:26
  Speaker 2: Give him a can of oil.
• 1:06:27
  Speaker 3: I don't know. But a guy takes your order and
• 1:06:30
  Speaker 3: then the robot comes over. But anyway, that's the start
• 1:06:33
  Speaker 3: of it.
• 1:06:33
  Speaker 13: The tip of the iceberg.
• 1:06:34
  Speaker 23: Artificial intelligence, which is stirring up a lot of debate
• 1:06:38
  Speaker 23: between me and my fiance is whether we tip the
• 1:06:40
  Speaker 23: AI robot that comes to your table. But as several
• 1:06:43
  Speaker 23: researchers sound the alarm calling for more guardrails. When it
• 1:06:46
  Speaker 23: comes to AI, this comes after the Anthropic CEO cautioned
• 1:06:51
  Speaker 23: that a swarm of AI agents might be able to
• 1:06:54
  Speaker 23: take over the Internet in six months to a year,
• 1:06:58
  Speaker 23: essentially saying AI poses a threat to humanity.
• 1:07:04
  Speaker 25: I do believe it's going to take over. It's already
• 1:07:06
  Speaker 25: taking over our everyday lives. So all over the Internet.
• 1:07:09
  Speaker 7: In our homes, on our phones.
• 1:07:12
  Speaker 1: Everywhere.
• 1:07:12
  Speaker 7: I believe so at the rate of this going.
• 1:07:15
  Speaker 13: I think I use it daily for anything, honestly. Assignments,
• 1:07:19
  Speaker 13: help with an email.
• 1:07:21
  Speaker 1: Heavily invested in it, yes. Take over the world? No.
• 1:07:25
  Speaker 13: It's entertaining. I'm not sure about taking over the world,
• 1:07:28
  Speaker 13: but it is entertaining.
• 1:07:30
  Speaker 3: Okay, so notice how every guy said no and every
• 1:07:32
  Speaker 3: woman said yes.
• 1:07:33
  Speaker 23: I was noticing that as I was editing it together,
• 1:07:36
  Speaker 23: but that's the pattern I'm seeing. Now, several other tech
• 1:07:39
  Speaker 23: moguls have stepped in To back these concerns, including chat
• 1:07:44
  Speaker 23: GPT CEO Sam Altman and Elon Musk, some brushing off
• 1:07:48
  Speaker 23: the concern more than others, including President Trump and those
• 1:07:52
  Speaker 23: on the street, since they use it for daily tasks.
• 1:07:56
  Speaker 3: Rather than, you know, what's being dubbed computer warfare.
• 1:07:59
  Speaker 13: I think it depends on the person.
• 1:08:00
  Speaker 25: If you know how to use it wisely, you can
• 1:08:02
  Speaker 25: just use it as a template to help you out.
• 1:08:05
  Speaker 13: But I have friends that do.
• 1:08:06
  Speaker 3: What do they use it for?
• 1:08:07
  Speaker 13: They basically make spoofs on things that happen in New
• 1:08:10
  Speaker 13: York City a lot.
• 1:08:11
  Speaker 20: I think it makes people think deeper and learn more.
• 1:08:15
  Speaker 20: I think it's going to make the world a better place,
• 1:08:16
  Speaker 20: like me.
• 1:08:17
  Speaker 3: What's an example?
• 1:08:18
  Speaker 20: Not knowing how something operates and then getting more insight
• 1:08:22
  Speaker 20: much quicker and easier.
• 1:08:24
  Speaker 25: I see a lot of people I know using ChatGPT, etc.
• 1:08:27
  Speaker 25: It was just nothing I was ever interested in. I'm
• 1:08:29
  Speaker 25: more of a real-life type of person.
• 1:08:32
  Speaker 3: She lives in the real world, is what she's saying.
• 1:08:35
  Speaker 23: But maybe they are using it, people, the general public,
• 1:08:38
  Speaker 23: for stupid things. As tech CEOs warn about AI taking
• 1:08:42
  Speaker 23: over humanity, we've got maybe some gems of society making
• 1:08:47
  Speaker 23: AI adult films, if you catch my drift. It all
• 1:08:52
  Speaker 23: comes as the Manhattan District Attorney announced yesterday that he
• 1:08:55
  Speaker 23: shut down about a dozen websites selling these kinds of
• 1:08:59
  Speaker 23: deep fake products, sort of, you know, putting videos and
• 1:09:05
  Speaker 23: some are celebrities and sexually explicit ideas.
• 1:09:09
  Speaker 1: A fake deep throat videos. A fake modern day Linda Lovelace.
• 1:09:15
  Speaker 3: You are correct. But it looks a little real, I guess,
• 1:09:19
  Speaker 3: to people.
• 1:09:20
  Speaker 2: I beg to differ. That would be a wonderful way
• 1:09:22
  Speaker 2: to wake up.
• 1:09:26
  Speaker 1: Oh, my God.
• 1:09:28
  Speaker 7: We're not getting into that.
• 1:09:30
  Speaker 13: I need another cup of.
• 1:09:31
  Speaker 1: Coffee before I talk about this. What about the classic
• 1:09:36
  Speaker 1: Debbie does Dallas, the Dallas Cowboys, right?
• 1:09:40
  Speaker 3: Debbie does Dallas AI.
• 1:09:42
  Speaker 1: Okay.
• 1:09:42
  Speaker 3: Deep fake. So really what we're, that was a great line.
• 1:09:48
  Speaker 3: What you said, I'm just going to, I'm just going
• 1:09:50
  Speaker 3: to roll past it. Cause I'm going to get in
• 1:09:52
  Speaker 3: trouble with HR if I keep.
• 1:09:53
  Speaker 13: Going with this.
• 1:09:53
  Speaker 3: So is it getting harder for people to spot AI?
• 1:09:58
  Speaker 25: I wouldn't say hard, because most of the time it's
• 1:10:00
  Speaker 25: common sense, but it will get harder.
• 1:10:04
  Speaker 13: No, there's still leagues away from being totally deepfake material,
• 1:10:10
  Speaker 13: like shadows, stuff like that. Things that they can't replicate fully.
• 1:10:14
  Speaker 13: Glare of the Sun, probably. Not too sure, but things
• 1:10:17
  Speaker 13: along that line, you can still kind of tell that
• 1:10:19
  Speaker 13: it's not there there yet. There's been a few where
• 1:10:21
  Speaker 13: I'm like, oh, this is AI.
• 1:10:23
  Speaker 25: But there's always like a little bit of something that
• 1:10:25
  Speaker 25: gives it away in the background because it can never
• 1:10:27
  Speaker 25: produce like a perfect image.
• 1:10:29
  Speaker 1: Deep fakes.
• 1:10:30
  Speaker 3: How do we combat that?
• 1:10:31
  Speaker 20: I have no idea. It's above my pay grade. That's
• 1:10:33
  Speaker 20: an Elon Musk question.
• 1:10:35
  Speaker 3: So we must turn to Elon Musk.
• 1:10:37
  Speaker 1: I'd rather not.
• 1:10:40
  Speaker 3: I still can't get over this.
• 1:10:42
  Speaker 23: What what we okay but anyway move on i know
• 1:10:45
  Speaker 23: i need to um but a lot of lately too
• 1:10:49
  Speaker 23: with these deep fakes even coming under into question is
• 1:10:53
  Speaker 23: also brands are now starting to allegedly use ai to
• 1:10:58
  Speaker 23: to generate product sales in a sense so they're coming
• 1:11:02
  Speaker 23: under fire too which a lot of people we were
• 1:11:04
  Speaker 23: talking about on the street as well so there are
• 1:11:06
  Speaker 23: just so many different levels to ai in a sense
• 1:11:10
  Speaker 23: like Lawmakers seem to be thinking about, you know, our
• 1:11:13
  Speaker 23: security and our national security in a sense. And people are,
• 1:11:17
  Speaker 23: you know, talking about making spoofs, you know, and porn
• 1:11:20
  Speaker 23: and all this stuff in the general thing. So really
• 1:11:24
  Speaker 23: differing concerns and varying levels, I guess, depending on what
• 1:11:28
  Speaker 23: kind of clearance you have on our national security level.
• 1:11:31
  Speaker 1: I'm still interested in the robot who served you at
• 1:11:34
  Speaker 1: the restaurant. Is this a coming wave?
• 1:11:36
  Speaker 23: I'll take a video of it next time.
• 1:11:38
  Speaker 1: We go there often.
• 1:11:40
  Speaker 3: Not for the robot, just because the food's pretty good,
• 1:11:43
  Speaker 3: I got to say.
• 1:11:44
  Speaker 2: Natalie Migliore will be back tomorrow morning at 7.50.
• 1:11:54
  Speaker 1: So, Larry, we're at that point. Remember, we said, OK,
• 1:11:59
  Speaker 1: full speed ahead right after Labor Day for all these
• 1:12:02
  Speaker 1: contested House elections and U.S. Senate elections. And depending on
• 1:12:08
  Speaker 1: the polls you're looking at, they're close. Could go either way.
• 1:12:12
  Speaker 1: And a lot of times it's going to depend on
• 1:12:15
  Speaker 1: what the not the hardcore apparatchik and supporter of Republicans
• 1:12:21
  Speaker 1: or Democrats do. They're going to remain loyal to their party.
• 1:12:26
  Speaker 1: But the people who can be influenced and the independents.
• 1:12:28
  Speaker 1: So every day, if you have to pass a gas
• 1:12:31
  Speaker 1: station and you look at the price of gas, or
• 1:12:34
  Speaker 1: if you're a trucker, especially an independent trucker, and you're
• 1:12:37
  Speaker 1: paying for your own diesel, you see everything going up.
• 1:12:40
  Speaker 1: The groceries go up. The utilities go up. Housing, child care,
• 1:12:44
  Speaker 1: health care. But the biggies are. the gasoline, the diesel,
• 1:12:49
  Speaker 1: and that immediately impacts groceries and products. So there's a
• 1:12:55
  Speaker 1: lot of misunderstanding out there because we are so flush
• 1:13:00
  Speaker 1: with petroleum here in the United States. We now export.
• 1:13:03
  Speaker 1: We're an exporting country. So Americans scratch their head and say,
• 1:13:07
  Speaker 1: I don't understand. We've got more natural gas. We have
• 1:13:10
  Speaker 1: more gasoline. We have more home heating fuel oil. We
• 1:13:13
  Speaker 1: have more diesel. We're really doing well, and we are.
• 1:13:18
  Speaker 1: The problem is it's a global economy, so the prices
• 1:13:22
  Speaker 1: are set globally, and a lot of times you have
• 1:13:25
  Speaker 1: oil tankers that go back and forth. Some are just crude,
• 1:13:28
  Speaker 1: so it needs to be refined, and some of it
• 1:13:31
  Speaker 1: that's already been refined for the purpose expected, gasoline, home heating,
• 1:13:36
  Speaker 1: fuel oil, diesel. We only have in the United States,
• 1:13:40
  Speaker 1: we had this conversation before, 130 refineries. That's it. And
• 1:13:44
  Speaker 1: the last big one was built in 1976 in Louisiana
• 1:13:49
  Speaker 1: because we treated refineries like we treated nuclear reactors for
• 1:13:53
  Speaker 1: a long time. Don't build any. You know, nobody wants
• 1:13:56
  Speaker 1: it in their backyard. Nobody wants a refinery in their backyard.
• 1:13:59
  Speaker 1: I mean, just look, you go down. The New Jersey Turnpike,
• 1:14:03
  Speaker 1: and you're near Amboy, South Amboy, and you see the
• 1:14:05
  Speaker 1: refineries there, the old Hess refineries. So, God, I don't
• 1:14:08
  Speaker 1: want that in my backyard. We need them. Red China
• 1:14:12
  Speaker 1: is an example. They consume more oil than anyone else.
• 1:14:17
  Speaker 1: They have the second most refineries, but now because they
• 1:14:21
  Speaker 1: don't have their own natural resources— Any oil that goes
• 1:14:27
  Speaker 1: to them for their refineries, they ain't shipping it back out.
• 1:14:30
  Speaker 1: They used to ship it back out. They would refine
• 1:14:32
  Speaker 1: it and then ship it back out and get a
• 1:14:34
  Speaker 1: nice price. Now they're keeping it all to themselves. Tough Nuggets,
• 1:14:38
  Speaker 1: same India. They have the biggest refinery in the world.
• 1:14:41
  Speaker 1: Whatever crude oil they get, sorry, we need it for
• 1:14:44
  Speaker 1: our own consumption. So there's less and less on the market.
• 1:14:47
  Speaker 1: The big exporter of crude oil is Saudi Arabia. And
• 1:14:52
  Speaker 1: now they're sort of like they're being pinched by the
• 1:14:54
  Speaker 1: supporters of Iran in terms of bombing their refineries and
• 1:14:59
  Speaker 1: bombing their pipelines. So we're going to see, unfortunately, prices
• 1:15:04
  Speaker 1: go up no matter how much oil we have here
• 1:15:06
  Speaker 1: in the United States. And I know it's very difficult.
• 1:15:09
  Speaker 1: It is for me at times to accept that is
• 1:15:12
  Speaker 1: how can a country so flush oil? with all these resources,
• 1:15:16
  Speaker 1: have to be held prisoner by what's happening globally. But
• 1:15:20
  Speaker 1: that's how the marketplace is set. So now as Republicans
• 1:15:25
  Speaker 1: and Democrats battle one another, if you look at most
• 1:15:28
  Speaker 1: of the polls, Larry, the issues are affordability, cost of living,
• 1:15:32
  Speaker 1: obviously war in Iran, immigration, some of the other issues,
• 1:15:37
  Speaker 1: but Every day, people are reminded because it's not like
• 1:15:41
  Speaker 1: the old times. When you were growing up, you'd pass
• 1:15:43
  Speaker 1: a gas station. They didn't really have prices up there.
• 1:15:46
  Speaker 1: You'd have to see them at the pump. Now, you
• 1:15:48
  Speaker 1: could see them like a half a mile away. You know,
• 1:15:52
  Speaker 1: neon signs, boom, boom, boom. You're reminded constantly. Boy, this
• 1:15:58
  Speaker 1: is going to make it a real horse race for
• 1:16:01
  Speaker 1: the Republicans who have to go out there, battle for
• 1:16:04
  Speaker 1: their own seats, or if they're running for new seats,
• 1:16:06
  Speaker 1: and likewise for the Democrats, because this is the main
• 1:16:08
  Speaker 1: issue they're probably going to be addressing out on the
• 1:16:11
  Speaker 1: campaign trail.
• 1:16:12
  Speaker 2: Yeah, well, affordability, but this affects everything, especially the diesel prices,
• 1:16:16
  Speaker 2: affects every single product, because every one of those products
• 1:16:19
  Speaker 2: has to be delivered by a truck, and so the
• 1:16:21
  Speaker 2: prices are going to go up. And I'm shocked. I
• 1:16:25
  Speaker 2: truly am shocked. And Donald Trump was very well aware
• 1:16:28
  Speaker 2: of the midterms all along. He keeps talking about them.
• 1:16:30
  Speaker 2: As a matter of fact, he's been saying the last
• 1:16:32
  Speaker 2: couple of days that Iran knows when our midterms are
• 1:16:36
  Speaker 2: and they're not going to make a deal until after that.
• 1:16:38
  Speaker 2: They're going to hold out even though they're being crushed
• 1:16:41
  Speaker 2: economically right now and people are suffering in Iran. He
• 1:16:45
  Speaker 2: said they're going to hold out for another 60 days.
• 1:16:48
  Speaker 2: until the midterms come around, and then they're going to
• 1:16:51
  Speaker 2: do something. He also said that 40 ships now are
• 1:16:55
  Speaker 2: getting through the Strait of Hormuz. And that's great compared
• 1:16:58
  Speaker 2: to what it was a couple weeks ago. But remember,
• 1:17:00
  Speaker 2: 140 ships used to get through. So it's a fraction
• 1:17:05
  Speaker 2: of the ships that are getting through. The oil in Venezuela,
• 1:17:08
  Speaker 2: he made a big deal about that. Much of that's
• 1:17:11
  Speaker 2: not ready to go. It's not going to be ready
• 1:17:13
  Speaker 2: to go for a long time. And then he had
• 1:17:17
  Speaker 2: that meeting with the oil companies. And I'm sure there's
• 1:17:21
  Speaker 2: no readout of that meeting still. I'm sure he was
• 1:17:25
  Speaker 2: pressuring them. I'm sure he was pressuring them. You got
• 1:17:29
  Speaker 2: to do me a favor. You got to bring down
• 1:17:31
  Speaker 2: these prices. You got to figure out a way to
• 1:17:32
  Speaker 2: bring down these prices.
• 1:17:33
  Speaker 1: They keep going up ever since that meeting. So I
• 1:17:37
  Speaker 1: don't know.
• 1:17:38
  Speaker 2: And you listen to him and he keeps talking about
• 1:17:40
  Speaker 2: the midterms and they're going to come down after the midterms.
• 1:17:43
  Speaker 2: That's not going to be good enough. And he's got
• 1:17:46
  Speaker 2: to come up with something to do to bring those
• 1:17:49
  Speaker 2: gas prices down, or I have a feeling the Republicans
• 1:17:53
  Speaker 2: may lose the House. I think that's a probability at
• 1:17:57
  Speaker 2: this point. It used to be that it didn't look
• 1:18:00
  Speaker 2: like they were going to lose the Senate. If he
• 1:18:02
  Speaker 2: doesn't get those gas prices down, they could lose the Senate.
• 1:18:05
  Speaker 1: Well, you know, we are an economy that's based on oil.
• 1:18:10
  Speaker 1: Oil powers our economy, without which It would have devastating results.
• 1:18:15
  Speaker 1: We're not into the future yet. We don't have other
• 1:18:17
  Speaker 1: mechanisms that can replace that. Maybe in the future it'll happen.
• 1:18:20
  Speaker 1: It's not happening right now. So when the president said, hey, Zelensky,
• 1:18:24
  Speaker 1: you got to stop bombing the Russian refineries because they
• 1:18:28
  Speaker 1: produce diesel. He's right. But there's a whole bunch of
• 1:18:31
  Speaker 1: other countries that produce diesel, including the United States. The
• 1:18:35
  Speaker 1: bigger problems, let's separate the politics, because my dad was
• 1:18:39
  Speaker 1: a merchant seaman for 50 years and oftentimes had to
• 1:18:43
  Speaker 1: transport crude and also refined gasoline, jet fuel. You know,
• 1:18:48
  Speaker 1: he would tell me the differences. Actually brought me to
• 1:18:51
  Speaker 1: a refinery, which is a fascinating place to look at
• 1:18:54
  Speaker 1: because you know how you have all these pipes and
• 1:18:56
  Speaker 1: you have flames that are shooting up, you know, burning
• 1:18:59
  Speaker 1: the methane. It's like, A place you wouldn't want to go.
• 1:19:02
  Speaker 1: It's like the Wizard of Oz. I was fascinated. He
• 1:19:05
  Speaker 1: showed me how they separate the components, how they convert it,
• 1:19:08
  Speaker 1: how they treat it. It's a very, very complicated process.
• 1:19:14
  Speaker 1: We do it the best in the world. But we
• 1:19:17
  Speaker 1: haven't invested in new refineries. It takes five years to
• 1:19:20
  Speaker 1: build a new refinery no matter where you are in
• 1:19:22
  Speaker 1: the world. It's like a desalinization plant. It's like a
• 1:19:26
  Speaker 1: nuclear power plant. These things don't just go up like
• 1:19:29
  Speaker 1: a pop-up. So I would say in addition to everything
• 1:19:33
  Speaker 1: that needs to be done to drive the prices down
• 1:19:36
  Speaker 1: to make it more affordable for people, and especially businesses
• 1:19:39
  Speaker 1: and independent contractors, is that we have to start building refineries.
• 1:19:44
  Speaker 1: because we can't be dependent on what's going on in
• 1:19:46
  Speaker 1: the world. Look at Saudi Arabia. They're pinched in. The
• 1:19:49
  Speaker 1: red Chinese are saying, we got the second most refineries,
• 1:19:52
  Speaker 1: but guess what? We're keeping it all for ourselves. And India,
• 1:19:55
  Speaker 1: which has the biggest refinery in the world, they say, sorry,
• 1:19:58
  Speaker 1: we're not shipping it out. So a lot of these
• 1:20:00
  Speaker 1: other countries, they don't really have refineries. So if you
• 1:20:04
  Speaker 1: ship them the raw crude, they can't do anything with it.
• 1:20:07
  Speaker 1: Like you said, right now, Venezuela can ship a lot
• 1:20:09
  Speaker 1: of raw crude. They can pump it out of the ground.
• 1:20:12
  Speaker 1: But their refineries are in disrepair. It's going to take
• 1:20:15
  Speaker 1: a while for them to get upgraded. I think that's
• 1:20:18
  Speaker 1: why the gas executives, the oil executives... were meeting privately
• 1:20:23
  Speaker 1: with the president where they were telling him that. Yeah,
• 1:20:26
  Speaker 1: you're swimming in oil, but it's got to be refined.
• 1:20:29
  Speaker 1: If you don't refine it, it can't go to the pump.
• 1:20:31
  Speaker 1: It can't be used, which they would be absolutely correct.
• 1:20:35
  Speaker 1: So you've got to make big investments in that. It
• 1:20:37
  Speaker 1: is fascinating to me, that meeting you just talked about.
• 1:20:40
  Speaker 1: It is fascinating to me.
• 1:20:42
  Speaker 2: I'm checking every few days to get a readout on
• 1:20:45
  Speaker 2: that because that is normal procedure. It's standard operating procedure.
• 1:20:49
  Speaker 2: You have a meeting that the president's involved in. The
• 1:20:52
  Speaker 2: press gets a readout. I haven't seen a readout yet.
• 1:20:55
  Speaker 2: So I got a feeling that was a pretty darn
• 1:20:57
  Speaker 2: tense meeting. Just redact some stuff. You know, I want
• 1:21:01
  Speaker 2: to hear what was talked about. Nobody knows at this
• 1:21:04
  Speaker 2: point exactly what was talked about.
• 1:21:06
  Speaker 1: The executives didn't talk either afterwards. No, no, no. But
• 1:21:09
  Speaker 1: remember the other thing that all the electeds said. Remember
• 1:21:12
  Speaker 1: Shapiro floated, well, maybe we'll have a statewide gas tax holiday.
• 1:21:17
  Speaker 1: Remember he started that in Pennsylvania. And then the Fed said, well,
• 1:21:21
  Speaker 1: maybe we'll have a federal gas tax holiday because they
• 1:21:25
  Speaker 1: all get a percentage at the pump. Nothing has come
• 1:21:28
  Speaker 1: about because they're dependent on that revenue.
• 1:21:30
  Speaker 2: Well, not only that, no Democratic governor right now before
• 1:21:34
  Speaker 2: the midterms is going to lower the gas prices because
• 1:21:37
  Speaker 2: they know that's a winner for them and their party.
• 1:21:40
  Speaker 2: No Democratic governor. I'm surprised some Republican governors don't. But
• 1:21:44
  Speaker 2: in those states, it's not as oppressive. They don't tax
• 1:21:49
  Speaker 2: as much. I was recently in Indiana and North Carolina.
• 1:21:52
  Speaker 2: I was shocked at the gas prices. They were 60
• 1:21:55
  Speaker 2: cents lower than they are here in New Jersey today.
• 1:21:58
  Speaker 2: and New York and Connecticut, where they're hogs. The taxes
• 1:22:03
  Speaker 2: are oppressive in these states.
• 1:22:05
  Speaker 1: So let's look in our region, 435, 450 at the
• 1:22:09
  Speaker 1: pump for regular now, for regular gasoline, and diesel 625.
• 1:22:15
  Speaker 1: Now that's the critical one, diesel, because that's used in
• 1:22:19
  Speaker 1: the ships themselves. That's used in railroad engines to transport products,
• 1:22:24
  Speaker 1: obviously tractor trailers, big trucks. You have to have that.
• 1:22:30
  Speaker 1: And if the diesel keeps going up, whoever is involved
• 1:22:33
  Speaker 1: in that business has to pass along the price of
• 1:22:36
  Speaker 1: the increases to the consumer. And that's when all of
• 1:22:39
  Speaker 1: a sudden you're walking down your local supermarket aisle and
• 1:22:43
  Speaker 1: you say, it's not because they want to raise the price.
• 1:22:48
  Speaker 1: They understand. But they have no choice.
• 1:22:51
  Speaker 2: Absolutely. When we come back, the Carnegie Deli reopens. Man,
• 1:22:55
  Speaker 2: what are those prices going to be like with all
• 1:22:57
  Speaker 2: that meat? Plus, a chance to see Richard Marks next. Well,
• 1:23:03
  Speaker 2: the long national nightmare is over. The long wait is over.
• 1:23:08
  Speaker 2: The Carnegie Deli is coming back with their mile-high sandwiches.
• 1:23:13
  Speaker 2: They are going to open just a few steps from
• 1:23:16
  Speaker 2: their original location. The Carnegie Deli, I'll tell you a
• 1:23:22
  Speaker 2: quick story, Curtis. When I first came to New York,
• 1:23:24
  Speaker 2: when I was working at WABC as the weekend anchor,
• 1:23:28
  Speaker 2: there was two guys they called Lenny and Squiggy. I
• 1:23:32
  Speaker 2: can't remember the real name, so I apologize if you're listening.
• 1:23:35
  Speaker 2: But they said to me, two Jewish guys, and they said,
• 1:23:37
  Speaker 2: we've got to take you to the Carnegie Deli. Because
• 1:23:40
  Speaker 2: they wanted lunch all the time, by the way. And
• 1:23:42
  Speaker 2: so we go to the Carnegie Deli, and they make
• 1:23:45
  Speaker 2: their orders. And then it was my turn to order.
• 1:23:47
  Speaker 2: And I said, I'll have roast beef, tomato, and mayonnaise
• 1:23:52
  Speaker 2: on white bread.
• 1:23:53
  Speaker 1: Mayonnaise?
• 1:23:54
  Speaker 22: Yes.
• 1:23:55
  Speaker 2: That's what they said.
• 1:23:56
  Speaker 22: What?
• 1:23:57
  Speaker 2: That's exactly what they said.
• 1:23:58
  Speaker 8: Somebody ordered mayo at the Carnegie Deli?
• 1:24:01
  Speaker 1: That was Larry! That was me.
• 1:24:03
  Speaker 22: Oh!
• 1:24:04
  Speaker 2: And they looked at me and they said, That was
• 1:24:07
  Speaker 2: the most gooey order I have ever heard in my life.
• 1:24:11
  Speaker 1: And I didn't know what the word gooey meant. Well,
• 1:24:15
  Speaker 1: I tell you, I welcome this back. Because originally when
• 1:24:17
  Speaker 1: Natalie had said, oh, it looks like they're going to open,
• 1:24:19
  Speaker 1: I said, yeah, but let's wait to see if it's
• 1:24:22
  Speaker 1: the real deal, mortar and brick. Because sometimes you do
• 1:24:24
  Speaker 1: these pop-up things and then they disappear. It's the real deal.
• 1:24:27
  Speaker 1: It's mortar and brick. It's open today. And I can't
• 1:24:31
  Speaker 1: wait to return because that was the sight. Of my
• 1:24:35
  Speaker 1: world sour garlic pickle eating championships. Four times I won it.
• 1:24:41
  Speaker 1: They stack them over every two years. And it was
• 1:24:44
  Speaker 1: outside of the Carnegie Deli. I went for a fifth
• 1:24:47
  Speaker 1: title and the pickles wouldn't go down the hatch. I
• 1:24:50
  Speaker 1: knew it was over. But when I won my fourth belt,
• 1:24:53
  Speaker 1: you know, my green colored belt of pickle eating supremacy.
• 1:24:56
  Speaker 1: Don't light a match around me with a sour garlic pickle.
• 1:25:00
  Speaker 1: You know, I walk inside, you know, salutations and greetings
• 1:25:04
  Speaker 1: from the crowd. Who's there? The former Dodger manager, Tommy Lasorda,
• 1:25:08
  Speaker 1: with a whole crew of his family from Pennsylvania. Yeah, Curtis,
• 1:25:11
  Speaker 1: we like your style. We like your form. It's Tommy Lasorda, right?
• 1:25:16
  Speaker 1: It doesn't get any better than that.
• 1:25:18
  Speaker 2: Well, they got to bring it back. They got to
• 1:25:19
  Speaker 2: bring it back. As a matter of fact, you know,
• 1:25:21
  Speaker 2: if anybody's listening, they got to bring this back. And
• 1:25:23
  Speaker 2: so Curtis can now Start a new winning streak. But
• 1:25:27
  Speaker 2: I'll tell you what, Curtis, you should do one of
• 1:25:29
  Speaker 2: your famous Instagram videos on this. I'm bringing it back.
• 1:25:33
  Speaker 1: Yes, we will definitely do that. It's nostalgic, although I
• 1:25:37
  Speaker 1: must tell you, right now, if I competed, I'd have
• 1:25:41
  Speaker 1: to drop out at the beginning. It won't go down
• 1:25:43
  Speaker 1: the hatch anymore.
• 1:25:44
  Speaker 2: Oh, I'm sorry.
• 1:25:45
  Speaker 1: It won't go down the hatch.
• 1:25:46
  Speaker 2: You can be the honorary, like the Hall of Famer
• 1:25:49
  Speaker 2: that comes back to encourage everybody else.
• 1:25:51
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm the referee because I know how to cheat.
• 1:25:55
  Speaker 1: I know all the ways you can cheat in any
• 1:25:59
  Speaker 1: kind of a eating contest involving culinary delights.
• 1:26:03
  Speaker 2: Let's get some talk back. We've got some people patiently
• 1:26:05
  Speaker 2: waiting by. I live in Washington, New Jersey.
• 1:26:09
  Speaker 1: And this poor kid didn't have a chance.
• 1:26:12
  Speaker 26: And these politicians don't care. They don't care. It's all
• 1:26:17
  Speaker 26: about furthering political careers. pushing an agenda at all costs,
• 1:26:24
  Speaker 26: even the costs of everyone's children. They don't care whose
• 1:26:29
  Speaker 26: lives it touches as long as it's not theirs. Selfish
• 1:26:33
  Speaker 26: and disgusting.
• 1:26:35
  Speaker 2: Very well said. Selfish and disgusting is the word. Just
• 1:26:37
  Speaker 2: in case you weren't listening earlier, there's a story that
• 1:26:40
  Speaker 2: nobody is covering of a six-year-old girl in Washington Borough
• 1:26:46
  Speaker 2: in Warren County who That was kidnapped and raped by
• 1:26:50
  Speaker 2: somebody who never should have been in the country. And
• 1:26:53
  Speaker 2: no news coverage.
• 1:26:54
  Speaker 1: Nobody.
• 1:26:55
  Speaker 2: No news coverage.
• 1:26:56
  Speaker 1: Very slim.
• 1:26:57
  Speaker 2: I mean, I shouldn't say nobody because NJ.com picked it up.
• 1:27:00
  Speaker 2: Fox in Philadelphia did something. All the networks, silent.
• 1:27:05
  Speaker 11: Thank you, Larry, for sharing that horrific story. It's so
• 1:27:10
  Speaker 11: upsetting to hear, but you couldn't be more correct. The
• 1:27:14
  Speaker 11: news has to get their act together.
• 1:27:18
  Speaker 2: Yeah, please call the news stations. Just call the news stations.
• 1:27:22
  Speaker 2: They listen. If they have enough people calling, they'll listen.
• 1:27:25
  Speaker 2: But don't just go to the caller line. Call the
• 1:27:28
  Speaker 2: regular line and ask for the news director or ask
• 1:27:30
  Speaker 2: for the general manager.
• 1:27:32
  Speaker 27: Hey, Larry, I feel your anger and your pain about
• 1:27:36
  Speaker 27: that six-year-old girl. Something just needs to be done with
• 1:27:42
  Speaker 27: all these sanctuary cities and states harboring all these illegal immigrants.
• 1:27:49
  Speaker 27: this is really sad, and it's not the first time
• 1:27:52
  Speaker 27: it happens. But yeah, Channel 12, I did think News
• 1:27:56
  Speaker 27: 12 covered this last week, if I'm not mistaken.
• 1:28:00
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I did just hear about that, that they did
• 1:28:02
  Speaker 2: do a story on it. What I'd love to know,
• 1:28:05
  Speaker 2: and if you could call back, did they send somebody,
• 1:28:07
  Speaker 2: or did they just find the story online somewhere and
• 1:28:10
  Speaker 2: read it? Because everybody should be sending a reporter. There
• 1:28:13
  Speaker 2: should be live shots from there, galore. with this story.
• 1:28:18
  Speaker 2: Catch up. Just do better.
• 1:28:19
  Speaker 1: Right now at 8.30, let's get to news with Daria Albinger. Wow,
• 1:28:25
  Speaker 1: I am impressed. See, I practiced during the break. You
• 1:28:28
  Speaker 1: know what, though?
• 1:28:28
  Speaker 7: I was thinking, when you stumbled on Natalie's name, you
• 1:28:31
  Speaker 7: know what that says?
• 1:28:32
  Speaker 1: We are all real at this place.
• 1:28:35
  Speaker 2: Oh, that's true. We're not AI.
• 1:28:37
  Speaker 7: No AI, no air names going.
• 1:28:39
  Speaker 2: On here, 100%.
• 1:28:40
  Speaker 20: Human.
• 1:28:40
  Speaker 2: We'd be much better if we were AI.
• 1:28:44
  Speaker 3: That's true.
• 1:28:44
  Speaker 1: I would be much better.
• 1:28:45
  Speaker 12: I would never stumble if I were AI. But you
• 1:28:47
  Speaker 12: guys can't kill the lily. And it's going to be
• 1:28:49
  Speaker 12: sunny and cooler. You will not be able to find
• 1:28:51
  Speaker 12: a better day than today. A high of 71 degrees.
• 1:28:55
  Speaker 12: With less than two months to go to the midterm elections,
• 1:28:58
  Speaker 12: the Supreme Court has blocked President Trump's push to limit
• 1:29:02
  Speaker 12: mail-in voting.
• 1:29:03
  Speaker 28: Democratic-led states and voting rights groups had argued that the
• 1:29:06
  Speaker 28: president's attempt to have the Postal Service screen ballots would
• 1:29:09
  Speaker 28: create chaos and confusion so close to the midterms. And
• 1:29:12
  Speaker 28: while this is a big setback for the president, who
• 1:29:14
  Speaker 28: has long argued without evidence that mail-in voting leads to
• 1:29:18
  Speaker 28: widespread fraud, the president is expected to keep up this
• 1:29:21
  Speaker 28: fight even as President Trump himself has voted by mail.
• 1:29:24
  Speaker 12: ABC's Mary Bruce, California Governor Gavin Newsom is now saying
• 1:29:28
  Speaker 12: that he will not run for president in 2028 if
• 1:29:31
  Speaker 12: former Vice President Kamala Harris says she's going to. There's
• 1:29:35
  Speaker 12: a town hall meeting tonight in the South Bronx at
• 1:29:38
  Speaker 12: the site of the latest deadly Legionnaire's disease cluster. The
• 1:29:41
  Speaker 12: Legionella bacteria was found in a number of cooling towers,
• 1:29:44
  Speaker 12: including at Yankee Stadium. A Brooklyn community wants to know
• 1:29:49
  Speaker 12: who stole a beloved bodega cat.
• 1:29:51
  Speaker 29: Surveillance footage shows the couple scooping the cat outside of
• 1:29:54
  Speaker 29: 8th Street Mini Market in Park Slope on Thursday.
• 1:29:57
  Speaker 1: I had my Victoria.
• 1:30:00
  Speaker 21: She died like three months ago, you know. She's been
• 1:30:03
  Speaker 21: with me like 17 years.
• 1:30:04
  Speaker 12: The community did rally because it just seemed like such
• 1:30:08
  Speaker 12: an unnecessary event.
• 1:30:10
  Speaker 29: Family owners of the bodega say the cat named Jabal
• 1:30:12
  Speaker 29: was wearing a collar when he was snatched outside of
• 1:30:15
  Speaker 29: the store. The family said they did get a call
• 1:30:17
  Speaker 29: from someone claiming to have Jabal and said they would
• 1:30:20
  Speaker 29: soon return him to the store. I'm Leslie Radabali, WOR News.
• 1:30:24
  Speaker 12: Costco's raising prices and it's going to limit how much

  Speaker 1: of the United States saved my life. when he said
• 1:32:15
  Speaker 1: yesterday about artificial intelligence, the robots will not be taking
• 1:32:20
  Speaker 1: over because I can still do my robot dance from
• 1:32:24
  Speaker 1: my disco dancing days, and I won't have to worry
• 1:32:28
  Speaker 1: about the competition from them. What about you?
• 1:32:31
  Speaker 6: Oh, I did not know that you had this illustrious
• 1:32:36
  Speaker 6: dance background, Kurt. That explains a lot, though.
• 1:32:41
  Speaker 22: Listen, I'm not an AI guy. Like, I went to
• 1:32:43
  Speaker 22: Nassau Community College.
• 1:32:45
  Speaker 6: They think AI stands for Allen Iverson, the basketball player
• 1:32:48
  Speaker 6: on the team.
• 1:32:51
  Speaker 22: So we haven't been worried about this at all.
• 1:32:54
  Speaker 6: But I'm not scared, man.
• 1:32:55
  Speaker 27: Whenever the opening.
• 1:32:56
  Speaker 6: In the negotiation is do it our way or everyone's
• 1:32:59
  Speaker 6: going to die, you kind of know you're getting ripped off.
• 1:33:01
  Speaker 6: That was climate change. That was the vaccine. That was
• 1:33:04
  Speaker 6: net neutrality. We're going to be fine, okay? You know,
• 1:33:08
  Speaker 6: I watched Jensen Huang speak yesterday. And he is, of course,
• 1:33:12
  Speaker 6: as smart as anybody out there. The only thing that
• 1:33:15
  Speaker 6: threw me is, I don't know if you saw those clips,
• 1:33:17
  Speaker 6: but he's wearing a shiny leather jacket. And I don't
• 1:33:20
  Speaker 6: think anybody wants assurances on the fate of humanity from
• 1:33:23
  Speaker 6: a guy who's dressed like he's running a disco.
• 1:33:26
  Speaker 1: Did he go into your closet?
• 1:33:28
  Speaker 7: Did he go into your closet?
• 1:33:30
  Speaker 1: Seriously.
• 1:33:31
  Speaker 22: Seriously.
• 1:33:31
  Speaker 6: Well, there wasn't a lot of room because I'm currently in.
• 1:33:34
  Speaker 4: The closet, as you know.
• 1:33:36
  Speaker 2: Oh, we knew. Hey, I think it's fascinating that the
• 1:33:44
  Speaker 2: John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts is now
• 1:33:48
  Speaker 2: possibly going into bankruptcy as early as today. Turns out
• 1:33:53
  Speaker 2: taking that Donald Trump name off, it wasn't such a
• 1:33:55
  Speaker 2: good idea.
• 1:33:56
  Speaker 22: Yeah, I know, but I still care because I don't want.
• 1:33:59
  Speaker 1: To see it go under.
• 1:34:00
  Speaker 4: It has a legacy.
• 1:34:01
  Speaker 6: Why not some JFK-inspired performances?
• 1:34:04
  Speaker 22: Can we get some Marilyn.
• 1:34:05
  Speaker 6: Monroe impersonators in there? Maybe we set up a road
• 1:34:09
  Speaker 6: obstacle course for a Ted Kennedy Baja off-road challenge.
• 1:34:14
  Speaker 22: You know, I'm invested, man. I want to see it
• 1:34:16
  Speaker 22: stick around.
• 1:34:19
  Speaker 1: Now, remember the replacement at night you first talked about it.
• 1:34:24
  Speaker 1: for the dearly departed Emmy Award winner. Who was it
• 1:34:27
  Speaker 1: who won the Emmy Award for a talk show yesterday, Larry?
• 1:34:30
  Speaker 1: Stephen Colbert, of course. Everybody knew that was going to happen. Right,
• 1:34:34
  Speaker 1: but he's gone, and now it's all comedy all the time. Apparently,
• 1:34:40
  Speaker 1: that format is doing quite well, am I right?
• 1:34:42
  Speaker 6: Oh, the comics unleashed?
• 1:34:45
  Speaker 4: Yes.
• 1:34:45
  Speaker 6: Yeah, because what's happening is, you know, Byron.
• 1:34:48
  Speaker 22: Allen, who is a super smart dude... He actually.
• 1:34:51
  Speaker 6: It is a breakthrough idea, but it dawned on him
• 1:34:55
  Speaker 6: that people who tune into a comedy show want to laugh.
• 1:34:59
  Speaker 6: So he was like a pioneer in that regard in
• 1:35:01
  Speaker 6: late night because no one's prioritized that in the last
• 1:35:04
  Speaker 6: 10 years. And that's kind of what he knows is
• 1:35:07
  Speaker 6: that unbeknownst to Colbert or maybe Jimmy Kimmel, people don't want.
• 1:35:11
  Speaker 22: To hear right before they go to bed that fascists
• 1:35:13
  Speaker 22: have taken.
• 1:35:14
  Speaker 1: Over the government.
• 1:35:15
  Speaker 22: Women and blacks are losing their rights.
• 1:35:17
  Speaker 1: We're all going to die. Go to bed, everybody.
• 1:35:19
  Speaker 6: Good night. That's all he's doing is he's doing comedy
• 1:35:23
  Speaker 6: in the year 1992, which is all we try to
• 1:35:26
  Speaker 6: do on my show is just do comedy. You don't
• 1:35:28
  Speaker 6: have to editorialize. You don't have to care. So that cold,
• 1:35:32
  Speaker 6: but you know, Colbert thing good for them last night,
• 1:35:34
  Speaker 6: but it was embarrassing, you know?
• 1:35:37
  Speaker 18: Yeah.
• 1:35:37
  Speaker 2: A lot of the stuff they did were embarrassing. Did
• 1:35:39
  Speaker 2: you know any of the shows did the Emmys are
• 1:35:42
  Speaker 2: like dying because it's streaming and there's 9 million shows
• 1:35:46
  Speaker 2: and not everybody watches this stuff.
• 1:35:48
  Speaker 22: Yeah, they're actually changing the name of the ceremony to the.
• 1:35:51
  Speaker 6: Googles because you have to Google all the nominees so.
• 1:35:55
  Speaker 22: You can find out who's.
• 1:35:56
  Speaker 1: Winning for what.
• 1:35:57
  Speaker 6: It's like dancing with the stars, dancing with the Googles.
• 1:36:01
  Speaker 6: You have no idea who half of these people are.
• 1:36:04
  Speaker 2: Don't bring up Dancing with the Stars. Curtis is still upset.
• 1:36:08
  Speaker 2: He didn't get selected.
• 1:36:09
  Speaker 1: Yeah, Natalie here was supposed to get me into the
• 1:36:13
  Speaker 1: 35th anniversary edition. She did a lot. She did a lot.
• 1:36:18
  Speaker 27: I know.
• 1:36:19
  Speaker 12: I know.
• 1:36:20
  Speaker 6: Did they know? Nat, did they know about his robot dance?
• 1:36:23
  Speaker 4: I mean, maybe.
• 1:36:24
  Speaker 6: We should have led with that, and they might have
• 1:36:26
  Speaker 6: changed it.
• 1:36:26
  Speaker 13: You know what?
• 1:36:27
  Speaker 7: If I had just sent the twerking, he would have
• 1:36:30
  Speaker 7: been on it. That's what happens. It's all my fault.
• 1:36:35
  Speaker 6: Listen, Kurt, you know, the Trumps do love you. How
• 1:36:38
  Speaker 6: about you and Don Jr.
• 1:36:40
  Speaker 22: Do the Russian edition Dancing.
• 1:36:41
  Speaker 30: With the Czars? Dancing with the Czars. That is a classic. Oh, man,
• 1:36:51
  Speaker 30: I can't top that. I can't top that.
• 1:36:53
  Speaker 1: Let me take you back to the days when you
• 1:36:55
  Speaker 1: were riding that yellow cab around like an average hack.
• 1:36:59
  Speaker 1: What would this price of gasoline do to your ability
• 1:37:02
  Speaker 1: to take home enough money to pay the basics? It
• 1:37:06
  Speaker 1: would actually kill you.
• 1:37:07
  Speaker 22: At $ 4 a gallon, you're losing about $ 80 to $ 90
• 1:37:09
  Speaker 22: a day.
• 1:37:09
  Speaker 6: In a $ 20 tank of gas.
• 1:37:10
  Speaker 4: Okay, so at these prices.
• 1:37:18
  Speaker 6: I'm wearing a blonde wig, powdering my Adam's apple, and
• 1:37:21
  Speaker 6: turning tricks behind the chevron.
• 1:37:24
  Speaker 22: You know, this isn't even a debate at this point.
• 1:37:27
  Speaker 1: It's like, you know, where.
• 1:37:29
  Speaker 6: Are you going, LaGuardia? Can I get you anything else
• 1:37:31
  Speaker 6: on the way?
• 1:37:34
  Speaker 1: What the hell do you do to your Adam's apple?
• 1:37:36
  Speaker 1: I didn't hear that. What was that verb?
• 1:37:38
  Speaker 22: Well, you powder it so they don't see it.
• 1:37:41
  Speaker 1: Oh, I see.
• 1:37:42
  Speaker 4: I see.
• 1:37:44
  Speaker 2: I'm so happy I didn't know that. Listen, I want
• 1:37:48
  Speaker 2: to say something serious for one second. I just want
• 1:37:50
  Speaker 2: to congratulate Fox News because Fox News was the only
• 1:37:55
  Speaker 2: outlet that covered the rape of a six-year-old girl in
• 1:37:58
  Speaker 2: New Jersey. All of the networks ignored it. All the
• 1:38:01
  Speaker 2: local news ignored it because she was raped by an
• 1:38:04
  Speaker 2: illegal alien. So please, whoever was responsible for that and
• 1:38:09
  Speaker 2: doing that, thank them because without them, we probably wouldn't
• 1:38:14
  Speaker 2: even know about it.
• 1:38:15
  Speaker 6: Yeah, no, listen, I appreciate you talking about that story
• 1:38:18
  Speaker 6: because it starts with the local coverage.
• 1:38:20
  Speaker 22: If the local coverage doesn't pick it up, it.
• 1:38:22
  Speaker 1: Doesn't go wider.
• 1:38:24
  Speaker 22: So somebody must have caught.
• 1:38:26
  Speaker 6: It at Fox, because another network might have did something.
• 1:38:29
  Speaker 22: Like cursory, like a reader, because it wasn't big coverage
• 1:38:33
  Speaker 22: at all.
• 1:38:33
  Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying?
• 1:38:35
  Speaker 6: So, yeah, good on whoever did and good on you
• 1:38:37
  Speaker 6: guys if you've been talking about that. But, yeah, just
• 1:38:40
  Speaker 6: to be clear, I obviously had.
• 1:38:42
  Speaker 1: Nothing to do with it.
• 1:38:43
  Speaker 22: I'm not even allowed to pick a floor for the
• 1:38:45
  Speaker 22: elevator when I did it. But, yeah, nice to know.
• 1:38:48
  Speaker 1: That's very bright of them not to let you pick
• 1:38:51
  Speaker 1: a draw. Very astute, very smart. In fact, that requires AI,
• 1:38:57
  Speaker 1: actual intelligence.
• 1:38:59
  Speaker 6: Boom.
• 1:39:01
  Speaker 1: Thank you, Jimmy. Don't fail me now, failure. Remember, you
• 1:39:04
  Speaker 1: go to sleep with Jimmy at night here on 710WOR.
• 1:39:07
  Speaker 1: He's on six to nine, Monday through Fridays. And then
• 1:39:10
  Speaker 1: you wake up with Larry and me in the morning
• 1:39:12
  Speaker 1: at six. Thank you, Jimmy.
• 1:39:15
  Speaker 9: You're the best, Kurt.
• 1:39:15
  Speaker 22: See you on the dance floor, Mr.
• 1:39:17
  Speaker 4: Robano.
• 1:39:20
  Speaker 1: All of last year, running for the presidency, the Democratic
• 1:39:24
  Speaker 1: nomination of his party. Governor Newsom in California. Disasters taking place, fires, floods.
• 1:39:30
  Speaker 1: It didn't matter. He was on the road. He had
• 1:39:33
  Speaker 1: a book out, which was real cringy. It was almost
• 1:39:36
  Speaker 1: like a little Mama Dearest-esque. He had a podcast in
• 1:39:41
  Speaker 1: which he'd take on adversaries. He traveled the world. Wherever
• 1:39:44
  Speaker 1: Trump went, it's almost like he wanted to shadow him.
• 1:39:47
  Speaker 1: And then all of a sudden, yesterday, he says, well,
• 1:39:51
  Speaker 1: your former Vice President Harris is should run for the nomination.
• 1:39:56
  Speaker 1: I'm not. And I'm saying to myself, well, wait a second.
• 1:40:01
  Speaker 1: Why would you say that? Vice President Harris has already
• 1:40:03
  Speaker 1: been asked by some of the candidates running in the midterms,
• 1:40:07
  Speaker 1: please don't visit us here. Please don't come to our state. Please, please,
• 1:40:13
  Speaker 1: pretty please don't come to our state. Why the hell
• 1:40:16
  Speaker 1: would he do something like that? I don't know.
• 1:40:20
  Speaker 2: The guy is so unbelievably smarmy. I just don't think
• 1:40:25
  Speaker 2: he played nationally. He's been running for president now for
• 1:40:28
  Speaker 2: the last year and a half, and he's gone down
• 1:40:31
  Speaker 2: in the polls. So I think that is a reality
• 1:40:35
  Speaker 2: check for him. I don't think that he's doing this
• 1:40:37
  Speaker 2: because he's so altruistic that, you know, Kamala Harris, she
• 1:40:41
  Speaker 2: deserves it. No, he's just letting us know very early
• 1:40:45
  Speaker 2: on that he might be dropping out. And the guy
• 1:40:47
  Speaker 2: that's shooting up like a rocket right now is the
• 1:40:51
  Speaker 2: guy you've been talking about, John Ossoff.
• 1:40:53
  Speaker 9: Sure.
• 1:40:53
  Speaker 1: He was just a rookie the last time he ran. Remember,
• 1:40:57
  Speaker 1: this was at the end of the 2020 cycle when
• 1:41:00
  Speaker 1: they had the special election in Georgia, and he just
• 1:41:02
  Speaker 1: barely got into office there. He was a rookie. But boy,
• 1:41:06
  Speaker 1: he's really shaped up. His speeches are going viral. He's
• 1:41:11
  Speaker 1: on the attack against Trump, which you have to do
• 1:41:14
  Speaker 1: if you are going to be considered a viable candidate,
• 1:41:16
  Speaker 1: because that's what the Democrats want. Somebody who's going to
• 1:41:19
  Speaker 1: go after Maggie, somebody who's going to go after Trump.
• 1:41:21
  Speaker 1: His only problem? He's part Jewish.
• 1:41:24
  Speaker 2: Yeah, but he checks all the boxes. He does check
• 1:41:26
  Speaker 2: a lot of boxes. Georgia, I mean, that's become a
• 1:41:29
  Speaker 2: purple state. He's mostly moderate, I mean, on many of
• 1:41:33
  Speaker 2: the issues, but he's left enough for the Democratic Party
• 1:41:37
  Speaker 2: to like him in a primary. No, he's serious. It's
• 1:41:40
  Speaker 2: funny because when you first mentioned him, oh, not John Ossoff.
• 1:41:42
  Speaker 1: No, very good. The problem is what happens when that
• 1:41:46
  Speaker 1: progressive wing really puts his feet to the fire about
• 1:41:51
  Speaker 1: his religious background, being Jewish, his support of Israel. What
• 1:41:56
  Speaker 1: does he do then? Because that's almost become a litmus
• 1:41:59
  Speaker 1: test now if you want progressives to support you.
• 1:42:01
  Speaker 2: Well, it's funny you said that because if you look
• 1:42:03
  Speaker 2: at the polls, it's him and AOC at this point.
• 1:42:06
  Speaker 2: And I think she's going to run for president.
• 1:42:08
  Speaker 1: Oh, there's no doubt.
• 1:42:08
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, I know I think she was going
• 1:42:10
  Speaker 2: back and forth for a while between Senate and president.
• 1:42:13
  Speaker 2: But right now there's a lot of pressure on her
• 1:42:15
  Speaker 2: to run for president because she has the name and
• 1:42:19
  Speaker 2: she's going to be running at the right time, as
• 1:42:20
  Speaker 2: you mentioned. Well, tomorrow we got tickets to see Richard
• 1:42:24
  Speaker 2: Marks at 825. But in the meantime, the talk back
• 1:42:27
  Speaker 2: of the morning and winner of the Curtis Sliwa and
• 1:42:30
  Speaker 2: Larry Menti in the morning T-shirt had something to say
• 1:42:33
  Speaker 2: about Mitch McConnell's return to the Capitol.
• 1:42:37
  Speaker 18: Apparently, you haven't seen the video of Mitch McConnell. He
• 1:42:40
  Speaker 18: looks like Biden 2.0.
• 1:42:43
  Speaker 2: And remember, the Talkback of the Week will win a
• 1:42:45
  Speaker 2: C-Crane radio for the listener who demands better C-Crane radios
• 1:42:49
  Speaker 2: with legendary reception. And I don't ask favors too often
• 1:42:52
  Speaker 2: of you, but if you didn't hear the story I
• 1:42:54
  Speaker 2: did at 7.35 about a little girl in New Jersey
• 1:42:59
  Speaker 2: who was raped by an illegal alien to the point
• 1:43:02
  Speaker 2: that he left her on the road and she was
• 1:43:04
  Speaker 2: walking down the street with blood running down her legs.
• 1:43:07
  Speaker 2: I think everybody needs to know about this story and
• 1:43:10
  Speaker 2: take action, by the way, and you'll understand when you
• 1:43:13
  Speaker 2: hear the story. Go to 710WOR. com, click on the podcast tab,
• 1:43:19
  Speaker 2: and share. Do me that favor. Thank you.
• 1:43:21
  Speaker 1: And you wanted to also credit your wife in regards
• 1:43:24
  Speaker 1: to that story. Am I right, Larry?
• 1:43:26
  Speaker 4: Well, no.
• 1:43:27
  Speaker 1: But no, absolutely. Boy, I threw you a lifeline there.
• 1:43:34
  Speaker 2: No, I absolutely did. I heard her talking about it
• 1:43:37
  Speaker 2: on the radio when I was driving home. And so, yes,
• 1:43:40
  Speaker 2: I did want to give her credit.
• 1:43:41
  Speaker 1: Dawn, right?
• 1:43:42
  Speaker 4: Dawn.
• 1:43:42
  Speaker 1: Dawn. Okay, well, I don't want you in the doghouse
• 1:43:46
  Speaker 1: when you go home. Also, follow 710WO on Instagram and Facebook.
• 1:43:51
  Speaker 1: Larry also did a post about that very story. So
• 1:43:55
  Speaker 1: please watch and share. Coming up on March, Simone at 9,
• 1:44:00
  Speaker 1: TV personality Ron Deshear and streaming host Bill O'Reilly. And, oh, boy,
• 1:44:08
  Speaker 1: that AI is going to dominate our discussion tomorrow. We'll
• 1:44:12
  Speaker 1: see what the president has to say about that today.
• 1:44:16
  Speaker 1: But right now at 9 o'clock, it's the news.
