  Speaker 1: Let's get back to the Mark Simone Show on w
• 0:03
  Speaker 1: o R. Well, Michael Goodwin the best columnist in America.
• 0:09
  Speaker 1: You can read them every Sunday and every Wednesday in
• 0:13
  Speaker 1: the New York Post and all of his columns are
• 0:15
  Speaker 1: up on the New York Post website. You can read
• 0:16
  Speaker 1: them anytime. Michael Goodwin, how you doing.
• 0:20
  Speaker 2: Good morning, Mark? Thank you? Hey.
• 0:23
  Speaker 1: The mayor are crazy? Mayor saying he's going to arrest
• 0:25
  Speaker 1: Benjamin Nett and Yaho. What does that tell us that
• 0:28
  Speaker 1: he's delusional, that he's just a child? What do you
• 0:31
  Speaker 1: make of that?
• 0:32
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I think it's all of the about but it's
• 0:37
  Speaker 3: also a political play. This is red meat for his
• 0:42
  Speaker 3: core supporters. Of course, much of his appeal to them
• 0:48
  Speaker 3: is based on hating Israel, and so what I think
• 0:53
  Speaker 3: nothing Yahoo? Of course has they come to face for
• 0:57
  Speaker 3: the haters.
• 0:58
  Speaker 2: And if he could do anything to bring.
• 1:02
  Speaker 3: The Yahoo down, to embarrass him, to see him in
• 1:06
  Speaker 3: a purk walk, he would love that.
• 1:09
  Speaker 2: Uh. Fortunately it's not going to happen.
• 1:13
  Speaker 3: In the international Criminal court that indicted him is not
• 1:20
  Speaker 3: relevant in the United States. We do not subscribe to
• 1:24
  Speaker 3: its authority, we are not members of it, so that's
• 1:28
  Speaker 3: not going to happen. But Mam Donny, that's why I
• 1:32
  Speaker 3: think he's just throwing out red meat.
• 1:34
  Speaker 1: Ye hey, he wrote guess it's come of the jd
• 1:39
  Speaker 1: Vance interview, which shocked a lot of people with the
• 1:43
  Speaker 1: Rogan it's kind of going off the reservation from the
• 1:47
  Speaker 1: Trump administration especially, is what seemed like anti Israel stuff.
• 1:51
  Speaker 1: What do you think is that's all about?
• 1:54
  Speaker 3: Well, that's a good question, Mark, I'm not sure. I
• 1:58
  Speaker 3: don't think it was in any away a message from
• 2:02
  Speaker 3: the administration. I think it was a much more personal
• 2:07
  Speaker 3: revelation about what's on jd Vance's mind. It wasn't very impressive.
• 2:14
  Speaker 3: I thought he was smarter than that, and I was
• 2:17
  Speaker 3: very disappointed to see his contempt for Israel and his
• 2:22
  Speaker 3: lack of understanding, frankly, of what's going.
• 2:26
  Speaker 2: On in Lebanon.
• 2:28
  Speaker 3: Now, I gave it that he is now conducting the
• 2:31
  Speaker 3: negotiations with Iron, but to basically say Israel and Hezebela
• 2:39
  Speaker 3: is a chicken and egg thing is it's It's childish,
• 2:45
  Speaker 3: of course, but it's stupid.
• 2:47
  Speaker 2: It's uninformed.
• 2:49
  Speaker 3: Hezbelah was created by Ron and placed in Lebanon to
• 2:56
  Speaker 3: help eliminate Israel, and so when you're telling Israel can
• 3:02
  Speaker 3: attack the ten attack Hesbillah during the ceasefire between America
• 3:08
  Speaker 3: and Iran. You're basically doing Ron's pity for it. And
• 3:13
  Speaker 3: I think that's what Israel was not happy with that agreement,
• 3:18
  Speaker 3: in the sense that it effectively gave his bullet time
• 3:23
  Speaker 3: to regroup and recover and even carry out at Jackson
• 3:28
  Speaker 3: tied Israel's hands, and I think that was one big
• 3:32
  Speaker 3: issue Mark, as was his comments on Jeffrey Epstein, again
• 3:38
  Speaker 3: accusing suggesting that Epstein was a Musad agent, that he
• 3:45
  Speaker 3: had higher up relations in American intelligence, none of which
• 3:50
  Speaker 3: has ever been proved. So I'm not sure we're just
• 3:53
  Speaker 3: getting his ideas. I'll make you stand up too late
• 3:56
  Speaker 3: in the dark Weapon.
• 3:59
  Speaker 1: Well, Epstein's lawyer at the time was Alan Dershwitz, and
• 4:02
  Speaker 1: he said there was absolutely no connection with the MESADO
• 4:04
  Speaker 1: or the CIA. If there had been one, they would
• 4:07
  Speaker 1: have used it to negotiate a better deal for him.
• 4:10
  Speaker 2: That's right. He wouldn't have died in prison.
• 4:13
  Speaker 1: So what do you think that is doing. People thought
• 4:15
  Speaker 1: of him as the front runner for twenty twenty eight
• 4:17
  Speaker 1: and now he sounds like a little Tucker Carlson ish
• 4:20
  Speaker 1: do you think he's thinking that's the path for twenty
• 4:23
  Speaker 1: twenty eight to break away and do that kind of nonsense.
• 4:27
  Speaker 2: Well, he could be, Mike. I mean, you are right.
• 4:30
  Speaker 2: He is here so far leading.
• 4:33
  Speaker 3: In the polls, narrowly over Marco Rubio to win the
• 4:37
  Speaker 3: twenty twenty eight Republican nomination. I think that this kind
• 4:43
  Speaker 3: of interview will drive a wedge between him and much
• 4:48
  Speaker 3: of the Trump days. And you mentioned Tacocarlson, who has
• 4:54
  Speaker 3: broken with Trump, and of course I think Tucker is not.
• 5:00
  Speaker 3: He's come out of the closet as an engine semi.
• 5:04
  Speaker 3: And I think that Vance is very close to Tucker.
• 5:08
  Speaker 3: His Tucker's son worked for Dvance until just recently in
• 5:14
  Speaker 3: the VP of US. So it is, as I say
• 5:18
  Speaker 3: in my column, a friend of mine who was a
• 5:22
  Speaker 3: friend of Vance's and helped him in all his campaigns,
• 5:27
  Speaker 3: he's appalled by what's been happening for him. It started
• 5:33
  Speaker 3: several months ago, and he's actually alerted me to that,
• 5:37
  Speaker 3: and I said, I didn't see anything like that, but
• 5:41
  Speaker 3: I certainly stand corrected now.
• 5:45
  Speaker 1: He think this is the beginning of the end of
• 5:47
  Speaker 1: the nuttiness of the Democrats. I know you got the
• 5:49
  Speaker 1: Fetterman finally speaking out. Even Bill Maher in an NPR
• 5:53
  Speaker 1: interview said, if they keep this up, I'm going to
• 5:56
  Speaker 1: vote for a Republican in twenty twenty eight. So you
• 5:59
  Speaker 1: think maybe it might wake up the leadership to clean
• 6:02
  Speaker 1: up their mess there.
• 6:05
  Speaker 3: Well, then the problem Mark ultimately is that the leadership
• 6:08
  Speaker 3: has no power or has their limited power anymore. I
• 6:13
  Speaker 3: mean Juctionremer and King Jeffries are scoffed at by the
• 6:19
  Speaker 3: socialist Democrats. I mean here you have a Democratic mayor
• 6:24
  Speaker 3: of New York, a socialist, and you have the leader
• 6:28
  Speaker 3: of the Democrats in the House and the Senate, both
• 6:32
  Speaker 3: in Brooklyn.
• 6:34
  Speaker 2: I don't think Mondani.
• 6:35
  Speaker 3: Has a relationship with either one of them, and neither
• 6:39
  Speaker 3: have they supported him nor denounced him. So they don't
• 6:45
  Speaker 3: really have any power over this new breed of socialist
• 6:50
  Speaker 3: Democrat Mondani.
• 6:52
  Speaker 2: That's really Mondanni wing.
• 6:54
  Speaker 3: Of the party, and it's growing fast than the rest
• 6:57
  Speaker 3: of the party.
• 6:58
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 6:59
  Speaker 1: Well, it's gott to end at some point. This has
• 7:02
  Speaker 1: happened before in democratic world, where they go too far
• 7:04
  Speaker 1: left and then Bill Clinton emerges that type and leads
• 7:08
  Speaker 1: them back to the center.
• 7:09
  Speaker 3: Is there time for That's a very that's a very
• 7:12
  Speaker 3: good point, mark about what Bill Clinton did to the
• 7:16
  Speaker 3: Democrats in ninety two. You're right, and I think a
• 7:22
  Speaker 3: lot of people have been looking for the next Bill
• 7:25
  Speaker 3: Clinton for a while. Instead, we're getting quite we're getting
• 7:29
  Speaker 3: moving further left rather than toward the center with the
• 7:33
  Speaker 3: core energy of the party.
• 7:36
  Speaker 1: Well, if you're looking for another Bill Clinton, how about Fetterman.
• 7:40
  Speaker 1: If he would go out and buy a suit maybe, yeah.
• 7:43
  Speaker 3: You know, I think the amazing thing would be marked
• 7:47
  Speaker 3: if Fetterman would actually lead the party and join the
• 7:50
  Speaker 3: GOP and the Senate.
• 7:52
  Speaker 2: That would that I think would be a real warning.
• 7:56
  Speaker 3: And don't forget too like some of the Senate. You know,
• 8:01
  Speaker 3: we're not even Democrats. The independents and things. I got
• 8:05
  Speaker 3: Bernie Sanders mansion was it independent Christian cinema badly So
• 8:13
  Speaker 3: there were a lot of August King in Maine.
• 8:15
  Speaker 2: It's not a Democrat.
• 8:17
  Speaker 3: So the party is actually quite small, but it counts
• 8:20
  Speaker 3: on those non Democrats the caucus with them to give
• 8:24
  Speaker 3: them all their roads. So if Tenderman would break the ice,
• 8:28
  Speaker 3: that would be something.
• 8:29
  Speaker 1: Yeah, it'd be interesting. Well, Michael Goodwin, great column. You
• 8:32
