• 0:00
  Speaker 1: Fly from Midtown Manhattan. Here comes the Mark Simone Show
• 0:05
  Speaker 1: on seven ten R. Hey, it's gonna be a summer
• 0:16
  Speaker 1: day to day, bright sunshine, eighty five degrees. It's gonna
• 0:20
  Speaker 1: beautiful all week. We got a lot to get to.
• 0:22
  Speaker 1: I was the Camp David cabinet meeting cancel. We'll get
• 0:26
  Speaker 1: to that. We'll get to President Trump's physical We'll get
• 0:28
  Speaker 1: to the don Junior wedding. Joe Biden is suing the
• 0:31
  Speaker 1: Trump administration. We'll get to that. We'll get to crazy
• 0:34
  Speaker 1: Mom Donnie and all of his latest schemes. We'll get
• 0:37
  Speaker 1: to Colbert's latest venture that just got announced, and a
• 0:43
  Speaker 1: whole lot more coming up today. So big cabinet meeting today,
• 0:49
  Speaker 1: very big important cabinet meeting today. I think this is
• 0:51
  Speaker 1: the twenty second cabinet meeting, and that's in two years.
• 0:55
  Speaker 1: Joe Biden had I think one and a half in
• 0:58
  Speaker 1: four years, which he basically was just sat there like
• 1:02
  Speaker 1: a vegetable. Twenty two cabinet meetings. But this one's important,
• 1:07
  Speaker 1: This is a big one. It was to be held
• 1:10
  Speaker 1: at Camp David. Now that's very unusual, very unusual. You know,
• 1:14
  Speaker 1: it's a logistical headache to get everybody to Camp David.
• 1:21
  Speaker 1: President Trump hates Camp David. They didn't hate it. It's
• 1:23
  Speaker 1: not for him. It's very beautiful. It's a beautiful, very
• 1:27
  Speaker 1: elegant log cabin but as you can imagine, Donald Trump
• 1:32
  Speaker 1: not the log cabin type. It's not his kind of setting.
• 1:35
  Speaker 1: But the last time they did a cabinet meeting there
• 1:40
  Speaker 1: was last year. Now, why was that cabinet meeting at
• 1:42
  Speaker 1: Camp David. Well, it was also very important and very
• 1:47
  Speaker 1: top secret about Iran. It was at that cabinet meeting
• 1:52
  Speaker 1: that they decided on the mission to blow up Iran's
• 1:56
  Speaker 1: nuclear reactors. You remember, that was quite a mission last year,
• 2:01
  Speaker 1: kept totally secret. All of a sudden it happened. It
• 2:04
  Speaker 1: was decided at that cabinet meeting, and then happened a
• 2:08
  Speaker 1: day or two later. So this was this cabinet meeting
• 2:13
  Speaker 1: probably entails something like that, some strong military something in Iran. Now,
• 2:19
  Speaker 1: why move it to Camp David. Surely the cabinet room
• 2:24
  Speaker 1: as a total privacy and security. Why can't you do
• 2:27
  Speaker 1: it in there? Well it does. It's very secure and
• 2:30
  Speaker 1: it's very private in the Cabinet room in the White House. However,
• 2:34
  Speaker 1: when the meeting's over, everybody has to leave and then
• 2:37
  Speaker 1: walk through the White House, which is filled with press,
• 2:40
  Speaker 1: filled with reporters, filled with all kinds of people, and
• 2:44
  Speaker 1: that's where a leak can happen. So that's the reason,
• 2:47
  Speaker 1: if it's really top secret, you move it to Camp
• 2:49
  Speaker 1: David because when they come out of there, they generally
• 2:52
  Speaker 1: go back to their office without there's no reporters at
• 2:55
  Speaker 1: Camp David, nothing, total privacy. So the cabinet member leaves,
• 3:00
  Speaker 1: goes right back to his office and has never seen
• 3:02
  Speaker 1: a reporter the whole way. So that's the reason you
• 3:05
  Speaker 1: move it to Camp David. Now, why was it canceled
• 3:07
  Speaker 1: today and switch back to the White House. Well, they
• 3:10
  Speaker 1: didn't want to go back to the White House. But
• 3:12
  Speaker 1: the problem is the weather in Washington is brutal today,
• 3:16
  Speaker 1: really really bad rain and storms all day to day.
• 3:20
  Speaker 1: So what that meant was you couldn't get to Camp
• 3:22
  Speaker 1: David by helicopter. The visibility, the low ceiling, impossible to
• 3:26
  Speaker 1: go with helicopters, and that made it really, really really
• 3:30
  Speaker 1: tough to get everybody there. It would have had to
• 3:32
  Speaker 1: been motorcades. And President always goes to Camp David by
• 3:37
  Speaker 1: helicopter if he has to do a motor caid. They've
• 3:39
  Speaker 1: had to do it in the past, and the problem
• 3:41
  Speaker 1: with these motorcades it's a nightmare. And also you got
• 3:45
  Speaker 1: to shut down freeways and all kinds of roads. It
• 3:47
  Speaker 1: totally screws up Washington. So without being able to get
• 3:51
  Speaker 1: everybody there and back by helicopter, they decided against Camp David.
• 3:56
  Speaker 1: It's a beautiful place, Camp David, but again it's not
• 3:59
  Speaker 1: a Donald Trump kind of place. It's rustic, it's a cabin,
• 4:03
  Speaker 1: it's in the woods. It was very important to a
• 4:06
  Speaker 1: lot of presidents because it's the only place a president
• 4:09
  Speaker 1: can have real total privacy. There's no Secret Service at
• 4:13
  Speaker 1: Camp David. Don't need him there. It's a military base.
• 4:18
  Speaker 1: Actually it's a military base. It's totally surrounded by marines.
• 4:23
  Speaker 1: Nobody can get it in or out, so once the
• 4:25
  Speaker 1: president's in there, the Secret Service can to leave them alone.
• 4:29
  Speaker 1: Jimmy Carter was going to close down Camp David. He
• 4:31
  Speaker 1: thought it was an unnecessary expense. He was trying to
• 4:34
  Speaker 1: cut down government, and he told Nixon, the outgoing president,
• 4:40
  Speaker 1: and Nixon said to him, don't get rid of Camp David.
• 4:44
  Speaker 1: You're going to really need it if you need to
• 4:47
  Speaker 1: be totally alone. If you need to walk all by
• 4:50
  Speaker 1: yourself without anybody following you, without a detail behind you,
• 4:54
  Speaker 1: if you want to be totally alone, the only place
• 4:57
  Speaker 1: you'll ever be able to do that is Camp David,
• 4:59
  Speaker 1: don't give it up. It's going to be very important
• 5:01
  Speaker 1: to you. And he was right. Carter used it a lot.
• 5:03
  Speaker 1: You know, when you need to just go out in
• 5:05
  Speaker 1: the woods all by yourself, nobody within thousands of feet
• 5:08
  Speaker 1: of you, and just walk by yourself, it's important. But again,
• 5:13
  Speaker 1: if you're Donald Trump, that's the last thing you want.
• 5:15
  Speaker 1: You always want forty people talking to you at all times.
• 5:18
  Speaker 1: It's not his kind of place. So Cabinet meeting will
• 5:22
  Speaker 1: be today. This will be interesting. It most likely. If
• 5:24
  Speaker 1: I had a guess, the Iran negotiations are making very
• 5:29
  Speaker 1: slow progress and could be stalled at any point, so
• 5:33
  Speaker 1: I would guess that the next if things don't go well,
• 5:36
  Speaker 1: it'll be the next and final phase of the military operation,
• 5:39
  Speaker 1: which will be absolutely devastating and brutal and involve some
• 5:45
  Speaker 1: real serious things. I mean, just really totally once and
• 5:49
  Speaker 1: for all, ending the Ranian regime. So whatever that is,
• 5:52
  Speaker 1: however serious it is, needs to be discussed with the
• 5:55
  Speaker 1: whole cabinet, and that's what he did with the that
• 6:01
  Speaker 1: effort to take out the nuclear reactors. So we'll see
• 6:04
  Speaker 1: the other news. President Trump had his physical yesterday. The
• 6:08
  Speaker 1: results that he released are that he is the single
• 6:12
  Speaker 1: most fit human being ever in the history of the world.
• 6:18
  Speaker 1: In fact, he said the doctors almost fainted because they've
• 6:22
  Speaker 1: never seen a physical specimen like his. Well that's his evaluation.
• 6:28
  Speaker 1: Let's wait till the doctors put out there's actually they
• 6:32
  Speaker 1: say everything went fine. The actual details, and you could
• 6:36
  Speaker 1: say they're fudging is no. No, they put out the actual
• 6:39
  Speaker 1: lab reports, numbers, everything that's not out yet, it'll be
• 6:42
  Speaker 1: out in a day or two, and at some point
• 6:43
  Speaker 1: this week they'll release the actual numbers. It's a three
• 6:46
  Speaker 1: hour physical that he gets. It's actually full physical and
• 6:49
  Speaker 1: a full dental exam. And the presidents do it once
• 6:52
  Speaker 1: a year, although President Trump's been doing it once a month,
• 6:56
  Speaker 1: I mean once every six months, twice a year, which
• 6:59
  Speaker 1: is a good idea. But he seems fine. I mean,
• 7:02
  Speaker 1: there's no problem at all. He does have that the
• 7:05
  Speaker 1: bruising all over the hands, but they say that's from
• 7:07
  Speaker 1: the aspirin. A lot of people take a baby aspirin
• 7:10
  Speaker 1: every day. It things your blood a little, which you
• 7:14
  Speaker 1: know helps your heart. Your blood is thinner, you don't
• 7:16
  Speaker 1: have to worry about blockage. So a lot of people
• 7:18
  Speaker 1: take a little baby aspirin every day. It's eighty one milligrams.
• 7:22
  Speaker 1: But you know, Donald Trump, whatever people do, he's got
• 7:25
  Speaker 1: to do it bigger. So he takes a full aspen
• 7:28
  Speaker 1: every day, a three hundred and twenty five milligram aspen.
• 7:30
  Speaker 1: It's too much aspirin. You're not supposed to take that
• 7:32
  Speaker 1: every day, but he said, if it's the idea is
• 7:34
  Speaker 1: thin blood, I want the thinnest blood ever. So because
• 7:37
  Speaker 1: it's too much aspirin every day, your hand can get
• 7:40
  Speaker 1: bruising and all that sort of stuff. Swelling in his ankles.
• 7:44
  Speaker 1: People have noticed that, but that comes with age. That's
• 7:46
  Speaker 1: just an old age thing. It's not that serious. He
• 7:50
  Speaker 1: wore compression socks to fix it, but he said they're
• 7:54
  Speaker 1: totally uncomfortable. What are compression socks. I guess they compress.
• 7:57
  Speaker 1: They kind of squeeze you down there. He said, it
• 8:00
  Speaker 1: just felt terrible. He couldn't stand them, so they stopped
• 8:03
  Speaker 1: stopped using. You'll notice he got slightly bigger shoes. He
• 8:06
  Speaker 1: got wider, bigger shoes. So and the falling asleep, you know,
• 8:10
  Speaker 1: the left likes to use that all the time. He's
• 8:11
  Speaker 1: falling asleep. He doses right in the middle of meat.
• 8:14
  Speaker 1: That's absolutely nothing to worry about. I know a lot
• 8:17
  Speaker 1: of billionaires. They all fall asleep at the table, all
• 8:21
  Speaker 1: of them. You know why. They never sleep at night.
• 8:24
  Speaker 1: They're up all night working, well everybody else sleeping for
• 8:28
  Speaker 1: seven or eight hours. They sleep for an hour. They
• 8:31
  Speaker 1: get up there on the phone, they're on the computer.
• 8:32
  Speaker 1: You can text a billionaire three in the morning. You'll
• 8:34
  Speaker 1: get a response in a minute. I mean, they're all
• 8:37
  Speaker 1: they're up all night long, and the result of that
• 8:39
  Speaker 1: is they doze up during the day here and there.
• 8:42
  Speaker 1: It's no big deal. It's pretty pretty common. So Hey,
• 8:46
  Speaker 1: the other thing with the president and big victories. Yesterday,
• 8:49
  Speaker 1: you know John Cornyn, who's a major figure in Congress,
• 8:55
  Speaker 1: he wanted him out. He wanted Cornyn has been turning
• 8:58
  Speaker 1: against Trump all the time. So Trump went down there
• 9:02
  Speaker 1: endorsed the opponent, Ken Paxton, who got He won, but
• 9:06
  Speaker 1: there was a runoff yesterday. In the Texas runoff, Paxton
• 9:10
  Speaker 1: slaughtered Cornan, showing the power of a Trump endorsement, at
• 9:14
  Speaker 1: least with Republicans. Paxton big victory.
• 9:16
  Speaker 2: When everyone in Washington told him to abandon me and
• 9:19
  Speaker 2: abandon the people of Texas, he didn't listen. Instead, he
• 9:23
  Speaker 2: gave his complete and total endorsement. President Trump is the
• 9:27
  Speaker 2: leader of our party, and his endorsement in this is
• 9:30
  Speaker 2: the most powerful force in politics.
• 9:33
  Speaker 1: Well so now some will argue, well, that's not good.
• 9:36
  Speaker 1: Cornyn was the safer choice to win in the general.
• 9:39
  Speaker 1: Paxton's got you, previous comments, previous things in his love life,
• 9:44
  Speaker 1: his marriage, whatever. Well, but they'll be up against the
• 9:47
  Speaker 1: tall Rico who is just totally insane. Tall Rico a
• 9:51
  Speaker 1: left wing kook who thinks there's a.
• 9:54
  Speaker 3: Recognizes that there are many more than two biological sexes.
• 9:59
  Speaker 1: In fact, there are sick.
• 10:00
  Speaker 3: God is both masculine and feminine and everything in between.
• 10:06
  Speaker 4: God is non binary. I have met so many Hindus, Buddhists,
• 10:12
  Speaker 4: seekh Jews, Muslims, Atheist Agnostics who are more christ Like
• 10:17
  Speaker 4: than some of the Christians I serve with.
• 10:18
  Speaker 1: In the Texas legislature, our southern border should be like
• 10:21
  Speaker 1: our front porch.
• 10:23
  Speaker 4: There should be a giant welcome mat out front and
• 10:26
  Speaker 4: a lock on the door.
• 10:27
  Speaker 1: Ye okay, so this guy should be pretty easy to beat.
• 10:31
  Speaker 1: Shouldn't be hard Corning. Now here's the problem. Corning is
• 10:35
  Speaker 1: a major figure in the Senate. He got wiped out
• 10:38
  Speaker 1: as Trump endorsed the opponent, completely wiped him out. But
• 10:41
  Speaker 1: he still serves till January. That's a long time. That's
• 10:46
  Speaker 1: seven months. You still got this guy around. He could
• 10:48
  Speaker 1: really oppose Trump vote against him. So Trump put out
• 10:50
  Speaker 1: a very complimentary, gracious tweet, complimenting, here's Corning last night.
• 10:55
  Speaker 5: I've spent most of my time in the Senate building
• 11:00
  Speaker 5: the Republican Party in Texas, and he's in the US Senate,
• 11:04
  Speaker 5: and I've always supported the Republican ticket, and I intend
• 11:08
  Speaker 5: to do so again in this general election.
• 11:11
  Speaker 1: All right. Not the most exciting guy in the world
• 11:13
  Speaker 1: is you can hear. Now here's the problem. In Texas.
• 11:15
  Speaker 1: You need a ton of money to run there. You know,
• 11:19
  Speaker 1: you got to spend a fortune when you want to advertise,
• 11:22
  Speaker 1: you got it. You do it in the major media markets.
• 11:24
  Speaker 1: You know, if you're running in Rhode Island, pretty easy.
• 11:27
  Speaker 1: You just buy a million ads in Providence, that's the
• 11:30
  Speaker 1: big media capital. Pretty simple, and you're done. Now if
• 11:33
  Speaker 1: you're running in Texas, there's like twenty two major media markets,
• 11:36
  Speaker 1: so you got a blanket. Austin, Dallas, Houston, San Antonio.
• 11:40
  Speaker 1: All you have like twenty markets you got to pay
• 11:42
  Speaker 1: for so it costs a fortune. That's why their elections
• 11:46
  Speaker 1: always turn out to be the biggest, highest spending elections anywhere.
• 11:51
  Speaker 1: So but Patching right now it only has about three million.
• 11:54
  Speaker 1: But the money will come flowing in, flowing in the
• 11:58
  Speaker 1: Texas Old Bush Republican country club guid they're not going
• 12:01
  Speaker 1: to be too hot hot on Packston. But the money
• 12:03
  Speaker 1: he'll come in from Trump administration, I'll make sure he
• 12:06
  Speaker 1: gets it. So A Don Junior had the big wedding.
• 12:11
  Speaker 1: He married Bettina Anderson, who's not the most beloved woman
• 12:16
  Speaker 1: in Palm Beach's. They call her a Palm Beach socialite,
• 12:20
  Speaker 1: but if you go down a Palm Beach most people
• 12:21
  Speaker 1: can't stand her. So they had the way. I don't
• 12:25
  Speaker 1: know why he married her, but he's marrying her, and
• 12:29
  Speaker 1: well he did marry her over the weekend. He's forty eight,
• 12:32
  Speaker 1: she's thirty nine. They got married on this very exclusive island,
• 12:37
  Speaker 1: Exuma Cays, a thirty eight acre ultra private Island. It's
• 12:44
  Speaker 1: right off NASA. It's seventy miles from NASA. It's not
• 12:51
  Speaker 1: that exciting. I mean I looked at all the pictures.
• 12:52
  Speaker 1: It look in the middle of nowhere, all by yourself.
• 12:54
  Speaker 1: It looks like Killigan's Island with nicer houses. It has
• 12:58
  Speaker 1: been It is kind of picturesque. It's been used for
• 13:00
  Speaker 1: movies like Pirates of the Caribbean, Casino Royale, Daniel Craig.
• 13:05
  Speaker 1: They filmed some scenes there. It was actually developed by
• 13:08
  Speaker 1: friends of Anderson, Big Palm Beach friends. So they got married.
• 13:12
  Speaker 1: There was only forty people and it was really just
• 13:14
  Speaker 1: the family. It was Don Junior's brother, sister, all their
• 13:21
  Speaker 1: kids right there. That's like forty people. Tiffany was there.
• 13:26
  Speaker 1: You'll notice there was no Donald Trump there. There was
• 13:28
  Speaker 1: no Milania there. I don't think they're too thrilled about
• 13:30
  Speaker 1: this marriage. It was not their first choice for a
• 13:33
  Speaker 1: wife for him. I think that's the reason they weren't there.
• 13:37
  Speaker 1: Now they'll say, well, due to the Warren Iran and well,
• 13:41
  Speaker 1: he could have easily just moved it up a few
• 13:44
  Speaker 1: weeks or ahead a few weeks. That wouldn't have been hard. Originally,
• 13:48
  Speaker 1: they wanted to get married in the White House. Again.
• 13:50
  Speaker 1: I don't think Donald Trump's too thrilled about Bettina. Anderson
• 13:53
  Speaker 1: did not want to give her that sort of an honor. So, hey,
• 13:58
  Speaker 1: we'll get to Stephen Gobert coming up. He's launched his
• 14:00
  Speaker 1: YouTube channel. You can make a lot of money on YouTube.
• 14:06
  Speaker 1: You can be very big on YouTube, and in many
• 14:08
  Speaker 1: ways it's bigger than network television. But usually on YouTube
• 14:13
  Speaker 1: it's kind of a smaller operation. You might find out
• 14:16
  Speaker 1: what Colbert is like without literally twenty two writers writing
• 14:19
  Speaker 1: for him. He had twenty two writers on that monologue
• 14:24
  Speaker 1: was twenty two writers, you know the Gutveld. There's like
• 14:31
  Speaker 1: one writer and he's got triple the ratings of Colbert. Well,
• 14:36
  Speaker 1: so we'll see what happens on this YouTube channel.
• 14:38
  Speaker 5: Now.
• 14:38
  Speaker 1: Originally CBS was trying to block it, fight it, copyright infringement,
• 14:43
  Speaker 1: disinfringe of that. So they started doing that the first day,
• 14:46
  Speaker 1: which was I think Saturday, and then the internet got
• 14:50
  Speaker 1: crazy at CBS calling for boycott. So CBS dropped the
• 14:53
  Speaker 1: copyright in front. Let him do whatever he wants. Who's
• 14:56
  Speaker 1: going to pay attention. Hey, we got a lot to
• 14:58
  Speaker 1: get to coming up. We'll get to the governor's race.
• 15:01
  Speaker 1: We'll get the crazy mom Donnie his latest scheme. If
• 15:05
  Speaker 1: a landlord is bad, they'll seize the building. The government
• 15:08
  Speaker 1: will seize the building. We'll go over this scheme. It
• 15:11
  Speaker 1: sounds very noble. If there's a real neglected building slum
• 15:15
  Speaker 1: with they'll take the building away. Sounds kind of noble.
• 15:18
  Speaker 1: They're like they're coming to the rescue. This is actually
• 15:21
  Speaker 1: how communism starts, the government seizing private property. Yeah, so
• 15:27
  Speaker 1: we'll get to that. We'll take some calls. Next. Eight
• 15:29
  Speaker 1: hundred three two one zero seven ten is the number
• 15:33
  Speaker 1: eight hundred three two one zero seven ten. Now more
• 15:38
  Speaker 1: Marximo on seven tenor heay, So let's take some calls.
• 15:46
  Speaker 1: Eight hundred three two one zero seven ten is the
• 15:50
  Speaker 1: number eight hundred three two one zero seven ten. Let's
• 15:54
  Speaker 1: go to Maddie and the Bronx. Maddie, how you doing?
• 15:58
  Speaker 6: I'm fined? How are you?
• 15:59
  Speaker 1: Let me check? Not bad?
• 16:02
  Speaker 4: Good? Good? Mark.
• 16:04
  Speaker 6: I'm curious about the protests that went on at Gracie
• 16:10
  Speaker 6: Mansion last night. I wanted to know what the turnout was,
• 16:14
  Speaker 6: but I also want to know why I can't find
• 16:17
  Speaker 6: out about it at all. Isn't it considered newsworthy.
• 16:20
  Speaker 1: Oh you can find it. It's in the New York
• 16:22
  Speaker 1: Post today.
• 16:24
  Speaker 6: Oh well, I'm talking about on radio stations. I just
• 16:27
  Speaker 6: got up a little while ago. I mean, I haven't.
• 16:29
  Speaker 1: It's our kind of woman gets up at ten o'clock
• 16:31
  Speaker 1: in the morning. Perfect.
• 16:32
  Speaker 6: Oh no, it wasn't ten. It was earlier than that.
• 16:35
  Speaker 1: Okay, nine anyway. Thanks. It was about four hundred people
• 16:39
  Speaker 1: turned out. They look like very peaceful. Neither were Israeli flags.
• 16:43
  Speaker 1: There was a get rid of Mom Donnie's signs, but
• 16:45
  Speaker 1: it was peaceful, it was orderly, and it was very nice.
• 16:48
  Speaker 1: It was a protest against Mom Donnie for his anti Semitism,
• 16:51
  Speaker 1: anti Israel nonsense, spreading all that hate and lies and stuff.
• 16:56
  Speaker 6: And any counter protest.
• 16:58
  Speaker 1: Yeah, believe it or not, they had to organize a
• 17:01
  Speaker 1: we love Mom Donnie counter protest. It was across the street.
• 17:05
  Speaker 1: It was about twelve people, mostly staff, I think. Thanks
• 17:09
  Speaker 1: for calling. Yeah, it was not a big not a
• 17:13
  Speaker 1: big protest, but it got the point across. You're right,
• 17:16
  Speaker 1: it should get more coverage, should be more media there.
• 17:20
  Speaker 1: But you can if you go in the New York
• 17:22
  Speaker 1: Post artic you'll see they have pictures of the protesters
• 17:24
  Speaker 1: there so, but they were orderly and they were nice people.
• 17:28
  Speaker 1: Let's go to Rob in Long Island. Rob. How you doing, Hey, Mark,
• 17:32
  Speaker 1: how are you doing?
• 17:34
  Speaker 4: So?
• 17:34
  Speaker 3: Educate me a little bit here. So isn't New York
• 17:37
  Speaker 3: City Housing Authority like the or landlord in New York City?
• 17:42
  Speaker 1: Yes?
• 17:43
  Speaker 3: So if Madami is going to be, you know, taking
• 17:46
  Speaker 3: assuming these properties, how is that going to work?
• 17:48
  Speaker 1: It's not, it's not. But that's why it's Mom, Donnie,
• 17:51
  Speaker 1: it's mom, Donnie. You remember, Democrats don't believe in science.
• 17:54
  Speaker 1: They never follow the science. When it comes to the economy,
• 17:57
  Speaker 1: they don't follow the science. When it comes to how
• 18:00
  Speaker 1: to run housing, there's a science and how to do it,
• 18:02
  Speaker 1: they don't follow it. Nische, the New York City Housing
• 18:05
  Speaker 1: Authority worst landlords in the world. You brought up a
• 18:08
  Speaker 1: great point. They're totally horrible.
• 18:10
  Speaker 3: Forget it and forget about the NGOs. Isn't this like,
• 18:14
  Speaker 3: you know, the biggest fraud that we're finding everywhere in
• 18:17
  Speaker 3: the United States is the ngin.
• 18:18
  Speaker 1: Yeah, it's all we put a ton of money. We
• 18:21
  Speaker 1: put so much money into knightscha should look like the
• 18:23
  Speaker 1: taj Mahal, But it's all wasted bloat. Fraud, kickbacks, corruption.
• 18:28
  Speaker 1: It's just awful. So, mom, Donnie's idea of if the
• 18:32
  Speaker 1: landlord's bad way will take over, well, you have a history,
• 18:35
  Speaker 1: you mean, and the government of being the absolute worst
• 18:38
  Speaker 1: landlords of all. And here he is talking about this
• 18:42
  Speaker 1: knightsche stuff. The New York City housing horrible.
• 18:45
  Speaker 7: We cannot afford to wait any longer. This five point
• 18:49
  Speaker 7: six billion dollar capital commitment is a significant investment that
• 18:53
  Speaker 7: will both unlock the kinds of conditions that too many
• 18:57
  Speaker 7: Knischa residents have been denied, and also serves as an
• 19:01
  Speaker 7: invitation to every other party to start to come to
• 19:05
  Speaker 7: the table to deliver on these kinds of investments for Nischa.
• 19:10
  Speaker 1: So six billion, five point six billion, that's like six
• 19:14
  Speaker 1: billion dollars. You know, Ken Griffin spending six billion on
• 19:17
  Speaker 1: a building. It's at Park Avenue and fifty second Street.
• 19:20
  Speaker 1: It's like a block long. It's a hundred story skyscraper,
• 19:25
  Speaker 1: absolute state of the arts, super luxury. That's what you
• 19:28
  Speaker 1: get for six billion when the private sector spends it.
• 19:31
  Speaker 1: When you spend it with the government, you get Nitscha housing,
• 19:34
  Speaker 1: which is totally decrepit, totally awful. And he just told you,
• 19:38
  Speaker 1: Remember he says, right, there this Nightscha housing is awful.
• 19:42
  Speaker 1: It's horrible, it's substandard. Well, who do you blame for that?
• 19:46
  Speaker 1: Blame the Democrats. They've been in power for twelve years.
• 19:49
  Speaker 1: Democrats have controlled everything city hall, city council, state legislature,
• 19:55
  Speaker 1: and governor's office. It's all been Democrats for twelve years.
• 19:58
  Speaker 1: So everything stinks, so obviously their fault. Let's go to
• 20:02
  Speaker 1: Blouvelt in Florida. Blouvelt, how you doing.
• 20:06
  Speaker 8: Good morning, Mark Simore, How we are Okay? Did you
• 20:12
  Speaker 8: get your fill of hot dogs on your long weekend
• 20:14
  Speaker 8: trip away?
• 20:15
  Speaker 1: Did I get my wife.
• 20:17
  Speaker 8: Phill of hot dogs?
• 20:19
  Speaker 4: Oh?
• 20:20
  Speaker 1: No, I didn't have anything.
• 20:21
  Speaker 8: You have a hot dog guy.
• 20:23
  Speaker 1: I love hot dogs. I tried to eat them very
• 20:24
  Speaker 1: rarely and the only time I like. The best hot
• 20:27
  Speaker 1: dogs in the world are Costco. That's still the best
• 20:29
  Speaker 1: hot dog on earth. Another reason is that fun they
• 20:33
  Speaker 1: make the best hot dog fun Costco hot sausages.
• 20:39
  Speaker 8: When I was making hot dogs and sausages back in Jersey,
• 20:43
  Speaker 8: we always built up a big, big inventory going to
• 20:46
  Speaker 8: Memorial Day weekend. And I can tell you every Memorial
• 20:50
  Speaker 8: Day that I can remember always rains.
• 20:53
  Speaker 1: Yeah, that's true. We have a history of bad weather
• 20:55
  Speaker 1: on Memorial Days. But Costco the best hot dog will
• 20:57
  Speaker 1: give an honorable mention to Walters in Mamarnick Walters has
• 21:03
  Speaker 1: been there like one hundred and twenty years. It's like
• 21:04
  Speaker 1: the Peter Lugers of hot dogs. What else Johnny and
• 21:09
  Speaker 1: Hages and fair laun Oh also in Fort Lee, what's
• 21:12
  Speaker 1: the famous one? They're hi rooms Hire rooms is legendary
• 21:15
  Speaker 1: for those hot dogs. Bridgeport. You got super duper WEENI
• 21:19
  Speaker 1: you got see I know my hot dogs. Let's go
• 21:22
  Speaker 1: to Maria in Manhattan. Maria, how you doing?
• 21:27
  Speaker 2: It's just fine, thank you very much.
• 21:29
  Speaker 3: Quick question.
• 21:30
  Speaker 4: If the city is going to take.
• 21:31
  Speaker 2: Over bad they run buildings, who's going to take over Nicha.
• 21:36
  Speaker 1: Well that's the problem. And you know, if you look
• 21:38
  Speaker 1: back at who they've sent in there to run Nischa,
• 21:40
  Speaker 1: some top people, really good people. But it's a mess.
• 21:42
  Speaker 1: It's just a bloated, awful bureaucracy. They get absolutely nothing done.
• 21:49
  Speaker 1: They don't know how to run anything. They can't even
• 21:51
  Speaker 1: fix potholes, I mean, can't fill a pothole. How are
• 21:54
  Speaker 1: you going to run housing? Hey, speaking of that, that's
• 21:57
  Speaker 1: sinkhole in Long Island. There may be another explanation for that.
• 22:02
  Speaker 1: We'll get to it coming up. You know, we were
• 22:03
  Speaker 1: talking last week or so, but there's infrastructure under highways,
• 22:07
  Speaker 1: pipes and everything, and when they're really old and they
• 22:10
  Speaker 1: rust and joints break, you know, it can flood, and
• 22:15
  Speaker 1: that causes the sync of well it may not be that,
• 22:17
  Speaker 1: it may there was apparently construction going on in the area. Well,
• 22:21
  Speaker 1: we'll get to We'll get to it in the next hour.
• 22:23
  Speaker 1: Coming up. Next, we'll talk to the great Howie Car,
• 22:25
  Speaker 1: one of the great talk show hosts in the world.

• 23:02
  Speaker 4: Very good again? I feel like I'm in groundhog Day
• 23:04
  Speaker 4: with these Iran negotiations, you know, I mean, I've just
• 23:08
  Speaker 4: looked at the Fox, The Fox headline all morning US
• 23:12
  Speaker 4: Iran talks reach critical Phase. I think I think that's
• 23:17
  Speaker 4: called the standing headline in newspapers. You don't, don't break
• 23:22
  Speaker 4: up the old the old hot type, just run the
• 23:26
  Speaker 4: same headline every day, Reach critical Phase, well followed by Trump.
• 23:32
  Speaker 4: Iranians have five to seven days the deal, Reach Deal.
• 23:37
  Speaker 4: I mean, it just keeps going on and on. When's
• 23:39
  Speaker 4: it gonna end?
• 23:40
  Speaker 1: Well, look at Trump, the Great, the master negotiators, spent
• 23:43
  Speaker 1: his whole life negotiating with the toughest unions, contractors, mobsters,
• 23:48
  Speaker 1: and he's never come up against lunatics like this. What
• 23:51
  Speaker 1: are you do in a case like this?
• 23:52
  Speaker 4: Yeah, I know, I was just tucking with someone else
• 23:55
  Speaker 4: about that. I mean, this is I mean, you know,
• 23:57
  Speaker 4: in the past, he always knew he was dealing with,
• 23:59
  Speaker 4: you know, Fat Tony or you know or or you
• 24:03
  Speaker 4: know what I mean, somebody like that, somebody that you know,
• 24:06
  Speaker 4: he knew, he knew who the capo was. You don't
• 24:09
  Speaker 4: even know who the the capo. The capo's dead, you know,
• 24:12
  Speaker 4: I think in all likelihood, and then they're just you know,
• 24:15
  Speaker 4: operating in his name and I don't. It's a it's
• 24:18
  Speaker 4: a it's a tough point, you know, it's but you know,
• 24:20
  Speaker 4: on the on the other hand, if you looked at
• 24:22
  Speaker 4: the Texas the map of the Texas counties to see
• 24:25
  Speaker 4: how it went last night, Yeah, it's just did how
• 24:29
  Speaker 4: many counties there are in Texas? Two hundred and fifty four?
• 24:32
  Speaker 1: Wow?
• 24:32
  Speaker 4: Do you know how many? John Cornyon carried?
• 24:35
  Speaker 1: No.
• 24:36
  Speaker 4: Two he carried. He carried Travis County in UH which
• 24:42
  Speaker 4: is uh which is Austin. And he carried some county
• 24:45
  Speaker 4: had never heard of down on the Gulf Coast, Kennedy
• 24:48
  Speaker 4: Kate with one end Kennedy County, there were there's nobody
• 24:54
  Speaker 4: in Kennedy County. Cornon won the vote in Kennedy County
• 24:58
  Speaker 4: six votes to two votes for facts. Then those were
• 25:03
  Speaker 4: the two out of two hundred and fifty four counties.
• 25:06
  Speaker 4: I mean, that's what you call a crushing defeat. After
• 25:09
  Speaker 4: eighteen years in the US Senate.
• 25:11
  Speaker 1: You know, Donald Trump is in his second term, heading
• 25:13
  Speaker 1: into the second half of the second term. Usually you're
• 25:15
  Speaker 1: a total lame duck, you're totally useless by that. But
• 25:19
  Speaker 1: he's stronger in the second term than in the first.
• 25:21
  Speaker 1: It's it's pretty amazing, isn't it.
• 25:24
  Speaker 4: Yeah, it is. You know, I think part of it
• 25:27
  Speaker 4: is his his enemies, you know, I mean, the the
• 25:30
  Speaker 4: Republicans are feckless. You know, he's getting rid of them.
• 25:33
  Speaker 4: The Democrats are being eliminated. You know, Durban's on his
• 25:37
  Speaker 4: way out. Shumor is gonna if if AOC runs for president,
• 25:40
  Speaker 4: I guess it'll be up to Mumdani to knock him out.
• 25:43
  Speaker 4: But you know, they're all they're just He's fortunate in
• 25:49
  Speaker 4: the enemies that he's drawn, isn't he.
• 25:51
  Speaker 1: Yeah? Yeah, these Democrats with the with the crazy Trump arrangements,
• 25:58
  Speaker 1: don't they realize they're kind of helping more than When
• 26:00
  Speaker 1: are they going to regroup and figure out a better strategy?
• 26:03
  Speaker 4: Yeah? How about how about this? How about Al Green?
• 26:06
  Speaker 4: There was another loss last night. Al Green, the guy
• 26:09
  Speaker 4: with the cane was yelling at him at the State
• 26:11
  Speaker 4: of the Union. You know, apparently they you know, they
• 26:13
  Speaker 4: redistrict did everything in Texas, and he moved into a
• 26:16
  Speaker 4: new district and he got crushed by some guy who's
• 26:19
  Speaker 4: like old enough to be young enough to be his grandson.
• 26:22
  Speaker 4: And I was thinking, you know, al forgot his great
• 26:25
  Speaker 4: hit from the nineteen seventies. Why can't why don't we
• 26:28
  Speaker 4: stay together?
• 26:29
  Speaker 1: Bad thing. I love the other Algreen, the singing a green.
• 26:38
  Speaker 4: Yeah, I think that's I think that's probably one reason
• 26:40
  Speaker 4: why the the algreen with the cane one initially one
• 26:46
  Speaker 4: in Houston.
• 26:46
  Speaker 8: You know.
• 26:48
  Speaker 1: That's a good theory. I like that. So, uh hey,
• 26:54
  Speaker 1: Barney Frank passed away. You Yes, way back then he
• 26:58
  Speaker 1: was considered an extra total left wing kookie left. Now
• 27:03
  Speaker 1: he's like a moderate in the Democratic Party. What happened?
• 27:05
  Speaker 4: Yeah, no, I was thinking about that, you know. He
• 27:08
  Speaker 4: you know, he wrote he's got this book coming out
• 27:10
  Speaker 4: posthumously saying, you know, the Democrats have gone too far.
• 27:13
  Speaker 4: And you know, the governor of Massachusetts is a lesbian now,
• 27:17
  Speaker 4: you know, from Maryland, and uh, you know she last
• 27:21
  Speaker 4: week she tried to put somebody on the parole board
• 27:23
  Speaker 4: to they're letting her there. They're just rubber stamping out
• 27:26
  Speaker 4: these murderers, one after another on the parole board. It
• 27:29
  Speaker 4: was too much for her. She's run for reelection and
• 27:31
  Speaker 4: the Governor's Council, which you know, approves the parole board,
• 27:34
  Speaker 4: they refused to put a prosecutor on the parole board,
• 27:38
  Speaker 4: and she she had to come out and say, hey,
• 27:40
  Speaker 4: it's gone too far. And then you had Tammy Duckworth
• 27:43
  Speaker 4: in Illinois. You know when the Memorial Day, when the
• 27:47
  Speaker 4: when the Democrat National Committee put out the the tweets
• 27:51
  Speaker 4: saying saying, would like to thank all the people who
• 27:53
  Speaker 4: died in Trump's unnecessary war in irene In. I mean,
• 27:56
  Speaker 4: just these people are out. I mean, when you've got
• 28:00
  Speaker 4: Barney Frank, Mara Healey and Tammy Duckworth saying I think
• 28:04
  Speaker 4: you guys have gone too far. I think it's pretty
• 28:07
  Speaker 4: clear you know that they have gone too far, isn't it.
• 28:11
  Speaker 1: Yeah, So at some point the cycle changes. You turn
• 28:15
  Speaker 1: a corner. Are we starting to turn that corner? Is
• 28:17
  Speaker 1: this the beginning and the end of that craziness?
• 28:19
  Speaker 4: I don't know. I don't know. I'm just looking at
• 28:23
  Speaker 4: the headline in the New York Post today, ma'am, Donnie
• 28:26
  Speaker 4: wants to seize apartments from landlords give them to nonprofits.
• 28:32
  Speaker 4: I mean, couldn't you make the argument that the New
• 28:34
  Speaker 4: York Housing Authority is a nonprofit and they're the biggest
• 28:37
  Speaker 4: slumlord in the city, just like every other city, aren't they.
• 28:41
  Speaker 4: I mean, this is insanity, isn't it. I Mean, he
• 28:44
  Speaker 4: hasn't learned, he hasn't you know, I mean to forget
• 28:47
  Speaker 4: you know, Barney and Mara and Tammy. I mean, he's
• 28:52
  Speaker 4: not taking his foot off the gas pedal.
• 28:54
  Speaker 1: Is it really insane? Is it insanity? Or is this
• 28:58
  Speaker 1: a communist the way of thinking. Let's the start here,
• 29:01
  Speaker 1: governments seizing private property and taking control of it at
• 29:05
  Speaker 1: the beginning of something for him. I think.
• 29:08
  Speaker 4: You know he did. You see, the Supreme Court just
• 29:11
  Speaker 4: last week ruled this this American company that owned the
• 29:15
  Speaker 4: docks in Havana. They've been trying to get him. They've
• 29:18
  Speaker 4: been trying to get some kind of ruling against the
• 29:20
  Speaker 4: communists in Cube but the Castros for seventy years for
• 29:23
  Speaker 4: seizing the docks, and finally the Supreme Court said, yeah,
• 29:26
  Speaker 4: you've got to You've got a case. You can get
• 29:28
  Speaker 4: the money back from the commedis. I mean, there's he
• 29:31
  Speaker 4: he ought to he ought to start reading some of
• 29:32
  Speaker 4: these Supreme Court rulings. I mean it, you know, eventually
• 29:36
  Speaker 4: it does go back the other way, and and you know,
• 29:39
  Speaker 4: it doesn't go back the other way because communism succeeds.
• 29:42
  Speaker 4: It goes back the other way because finally everything is
• 29:45
  Speaker 4: in ruins and and you have to you have to
• 29:49
  Speaker 4: go in a different direction. And that's apparently this is
• 29:52
  Speaker 4: what Mamdani wants to do. He wants to just take
• 29:54
  Speaker 4: down everything. It's good, it's and he's going to end up.
• 29:59
  Speaker 4: You know, they's going to be the same thing with
• 30:00
  Speaker 4: the Havana docks, seizing apartments. The government is going to
• 30:06
  Speaker 4: take over the housing to make it better. Yeah, and
• 30:10
  Speaker 4: has he ever been to a public housing project?
• 30:13
  Speaker 1: Yeah? Well, you know, Democrats don't follow science. They don't
• 30:16
  Speaker 1: follow this the science of running an economy. We know
• 30:18
  Speaker 1: what works, we know it doesn't work. We've tested socialism
• 30:22
  Speaker 1: ten thousand times, all these but they don't care about
• 30:24
  Speaker 1: the science. They'll keep doing it. So, hey, we got
• 30:28
  Speaker 1: you're the Kennedy expert of the world. We have this
• 30:31
  Speaker 1: crazy Kennedy kid, son of Caroline Kennedy, Jack Schlosper.
• 30:36
  Speaker 4: He's behind though, he's behind in the polls. Though. I
• 30:38
  Speaker 4: saw that. That's good news.
• 30:40
  Speaker 1: Oh good, Yeah, because he's running for Congress here.
• 30:42
  Speaker 4: Well, he's got like eleven percent, right, he's like running
• 30:45
  Speaker 4: third or fourth. That's good. I'm glad. Maybe maybe New
• 30:48
  Speaker 4: York is so bringing up.
• 30:51
  Speaker 1: Yeah, well, or maybe he's just really have you have
• 30:53
  Speaker 1: you gotten to listen to him, he's the dumbest, weirdest. Uh.
• 30:57
  Speaker 1: But what is it with these Kennedys.
• 31:00
  Speaker 4: I don't know. I mean, he's he's he's really, he's
• 31:04
  Speaker 4: a he's a real not yeah, I mean, and some
• 31:06
  Speaker 4: of them they can blame it on the booze. But
• 31:08
  Speaker 4: I don't think. I don't think. I don't think he's
• 31:10
  Speaker 4: got an alcohol problem. He's just insane. Ye.
• 31:14
  Speaker 1: Well that's uh. I was never a Caroline fan. And
• 31:16
  Speaker 1: you know her husband, Ed Schlosburg. Really yeah, very bad
• 31:21
  Speaker 1: vibe coming off that guy. So, uh, this is the
• 31:25
  Speaker 1: result of those two. But hey, Howie Carr, great stuff
• 31:29
  Speaker 1: his books. Get his books, and get Kennedy Babylon, get
• 31:32
  Speaker 1: the Whitey Bulger book. But tell us about your latest book,
• 31:35
  Speaker 1: mass Corruption.
• 31:36
  Speaker 4: Mass Corruption. It's just it's about the the It's it's
• 31:40
