  Speaker 1: Here's your host, Alex Garrett. All right, well, I am
• 0:08
  Speaker 1: back in the studio today at one leg Up Alex Media,
• 0:11
  Speaker 1: and I'm fired up. I'm fired up because I have
• 0:14
  Speaker 1: two words for my amum, Donnie and his little Department
• 0:18
  Speaker 1: of Treasury. Buzz off. You are not going to touch
• 0:22
  Speaker 1: seventeen thousand New Yorkers and the nine hundred thousand New
• 0:25
  Speaker 1: Yorkers and not hear from me, especially when I see
• 0:29
  Speaker 1: in the New York Post on the Tuesday edition that
• 0:32
  Speaker 1: my friend Rachel O'Brien, the wife of counselman Frank Morano,
• 0:37
  Speaker 1: is mentioned in the database along with Frank's father, Carmi Morano.
• 0:43
  Speaker 1: And it's fitting. I'm talking about this thirteen years after
• 0:45
  Speaker 1: my first show at Salem, which Frank Morono helped me
• 0:48
  Speaker 1: get part of, and look how far we've grown. I've
• 0:50
  Speaker 1: got a media company, he's counselman, and we're still friends
• 0:54
  Speaker 1: to this day. But when I read this, I could
• 0:58
  Speaker 1: not wait to jump on Mike and talk to you
• 1:01
  Speaker 1: because I didn't really understand the mechanics of the peda
• 1:04
  Speaker 1: tear attacks. I just it wasn't something I was really nodilloed.
• 1:08
  Speaker 1: So I was going to talk about it. But now
• 1:10
  Speaker 1: that I've read into this and seen that for a
• 1:13
  Speaker 1: guy like Marrimam Donnie, who's so concerned about ice being
• 1:18
  Speaker 1: deployed and being sicked on immigrants, does he not realize
• 1:22
  Speaker 1: he's seeking his own government on seventeen thousand hardworking New
• 1:26
  Speaker 1: Yorkers just for having a second home. Does he not
• 1:30
  Speaker 1: realize this is communism right here? And then you publish
• 1:34
  Speaker 1: a database with nine hundred thousand, according to Pete Samzaki
• 1:40
  Speaker 1: and others at the New York Post, nine hundred thousand homeowners,
• 1:45
  Speaker 1: including Frank's family. How does nobody see something wrong with this?
• 1:50
  Speaker 1: You know, if the Trump did this with all the immigrants,
• 1:55
  Speaker 1: he'd be lambasted. If you listened all the immigrants in
• 1:59
  Speaker 1: the database, be like a violation of privacy. Where's the
• 2:02
  Speaker 1: mainstream media on this? Why is the New York Post
• 2:06
  Speaker 1: only that's talking about this? And thank god for a
• 2:08
  Speaker 1: Staten Island judge for blocking this whole pedatre techs from
• 2:13
  Speaker 1: moving forward. And I never thought on August twelfth, twenty
• 2:17
  Speaker 1: twenty six, I would say I misbuild a Blasio, but
• 2:20
  Speaker 1: I actually do. If it were between him and this guy,
• 2:23
  Speaker 1: I would want to Blasio twenty times over because the
• 2:27
  Speaker 1: Blasio wouldn't go and list five thousand things. And the
• 2:29
  Speaker 1: thing about Morano's family is we're talking about political enemies here.
• 2:34
  Speaker 1: And it's sad because Morano goes on Arthur I Dallas
• 2:36
  Speaker 1: Show a lot and praises mum Donnie and says, mum
• 2:39
  Speaker 1: Donni's doing this, that and the other. He never really
• 2:40
  Speaker 1: criticizes him. But what does Mumdanni do? He puts his
• 2:44
  Speaker 1: family a Morano's family in the database. You don't see
• 2:47
  Speaker 1: that as targeting of a political opponent. Daily News did
• 2:52
  Speaker 1: he ever report on this? New York Times are you
• 2:54
  Speaker 1: reporting on this or just the Post that's digging in
• 2:57
  Speaker 1: on this because you're in New York. What it seems
• 3:00
  Speaker 1: like is the Daily News well poo poo anything. The
• 3:05
  Speaker 1: Times will poo poo anything. At least the Post is
• 3:07
  Speaker 1: doing real work. They're doing real work on this. I
• 3:11
  Speaker 1: didn't know that nine hundred thousand New Yorkers were being
• 3:16
  Speaker 1: docs like this. This is unheard of in this city.
• 3:22
  Speaker 1: I don't remember any mayor doing this to political people,
• 3:26
  Speaker 1: to homeowners and all because they have a second home.
• 3:29
  Speaker 1: And of course hulkol Now is trying to distance herself.
• 3:32
  Speaker 1: She can't get out of this. Polling today is showing
• 3:34
  Speaker 1: that Blakeman has a better chance than her at winning
• 3:37
  Speaker 1: the governorship. And boy, oh boy, moments like these when
• 3:41
  Speaker 1: you see Hulko standing by Mam Donnie from the very beginning,
• 3:44
  Speaker 1: from the very beginning, doesn't that make you want to
• 3:47
  Speaker 1: vote her out in November? For Blakeman, it certainly does
• 3:50
  Speaker 1: for me. She can't backtrack now, it's too late. She's
• 3:54
  Speaker 1: been in deep with this guy, and now she's saying, well,
• 3:58
  Speaker 1: we're going to distance ourselves from this tool. A pal,
• 4:02
  Speaker 1: you're in this too in your election year. And here's
• 4:08
  Speaker 1: where I say, buzz off. Listen to this. Enjoining the department,
• 4:12
  Speaker 1: this is what the Mamdani spokespeople are saying. Enjoying the
• 4:16
  Speaker 1: Department from taking any action on these appeals would deprive
• 4:19
  Speaker 1: many property owners of receiving prompt responses to their appeals.
• 4:23
  Speaker 1: They don't care about responses. They care that you docks
• 4:27
  Speaker 1: them in the first place. Of the seventeen thousand people
• 4:29
  Speaker 1: that got noticed as thirty eight hundred and one challenge
• 4:32
  Speaker 1: the department's determination as the primary residence is I hope
• 4:36
  Speaker 1: all seventeen thousand challenge this. I hope all nine hundred
• 4:40
  Speaker 1: thousand take this guide to town. Because as much as
• 4:45
  Speaker 1: I hate all the anti Semitism that he seems to
• 4:47
  Speaker 1: be rallying up by not condemning those protesting on of
• 4:50
  Speaker 1: a synagogue, I hate this even more as well, if
• 4:54
  Speaker 1: not more, because you're exposing hardworking New Yorkers in a day,
• 5:00
  Speaker 1: a base in a database. And you know, if she
• 5:05
  Speaker 1: doesn't want to do it, but if she wanted to
• 5:07
  Speaker 1: win election, I think we're removing him from the city
• 5:09
  Speaker 1: as mayor, which would be a first, would actually gain
• 5:12
  Speaker 1: her a lot of traction in this race. Not advising
• 5:15
  Speaker 1: or anything, I'm just saying, you know, she has the
• 5:18
  Speaker 1: power to do it, but it seems like she doesn't
• 5:19
  Speaker 1: want to do that. And by the way, this isn't
• 5:23
  Speaker 1: just a bill. This is a millionaire'st tax five million
• 5:26
  Speaker 1: dollars or more. Now condos one million dollars or more.
• 5:30
  Speaker 1: This isn't about the billionaires. It's even about the millionaires.
• 5:35
  Speaker 1: It's about every day New Yorkers who just want to
• 5:37
  Speaker 1: have a second home and live their life. You know,
• 5:39
  Speaker 1: it's what they choose to do. And then to further
• 5:42
  Speaker 1: it by saying we're gonna also dox all those people.
• 5:45
  Speaker 1: We're gonna stay outside Ken Griffin's house and his address
• 5:50
  Speaker 1: to prove a point. Look, I've been trying to ride
• 5:53
  Speaker 1: the high of Finacest and getting on the ESPN last
• 5:56
  Speaker 1: week was great. But I can't stay silent because the
• 5:59
  Speaker 1: original form of this podcast was about holding our tax
• 6:02
  Speaker 1: paying dollars accountable. And this is holding accountable a mayor
• 6:08
  Speaker 1: that thought, you know, oh, it's a good idea to
• 6:11
  Speaker 1: docs nine hundred thousand people, nine hundred thousand New Yorkers.
• 6:19
  Speaker 1: And this guy's worried about Trump sicking the Ice agents
• 6:22
  Speaker 1: on immigrants, but not worried about his department setting out
• 6:26
  Speaker 1: seventeen thousand notices and nine hundred thousand other New Yorkers
• 6:31
  Speaker 1: on edge because they're now docks. You know what kind
• 6:34
  Speaker 1: of political climate we're in. You see where we're at
• 6:36
  Speaker 1: in this country, and this guy wants to docks nine
• 6:40
  Speaker 1: hundred thousand people for simply making a living and doing
• 6:44
  Speaker 1: well for themselves. And this isn'tven about the money. It's
• 6:49
  Speaker 1: about protecting New Yorkers. He has eight million New Yorkers
• 6:52
  Speaker 1: to protect. This is not protecting eight million New Yorkers.
• 6:55
  Speaker 1: This is exposing New Yorkers who he's pissed at doing
• 7:01
  Speaker 1: well maybe well off than him, I don't know. And
• 7:06
  Speaker 1: it's like, where does this mindset come from. It doesn't
• 7:11
  Speaker 1: come from a capitalist background or even a decency background.
• 7:15
  Speaker 1: It comes from a socialist, a communist background. And yet
• 7:21
  Speaker 1: he's smiling and jumping in the pools and you know
• 7:25
  Speaker 1: whatever else, hugging the Mets staff, and then they go
• 7:27
  Speaker 1: on to twelve game losing the streak. I mean it
• 7:29
  Speaker 1: just this guy's no good. He's trouble and his smile
• 7:34
  Speaker 1: is only get him too far, so far before he
• 7:37
  Speaker 1: really steps in it, before he really steps in it.
• 7:43
  Speaker 1: And it's amazing to me because one of the people
• 7:46
  Speaker 1: in this lawsuit that was blocking this PIO of terror
• 7:49
  Speaker 1: attacks Levy was a Mum Donnie supporter. His name is
• 7:57
  Speaker 1: Simon Hedley, a self proclaim Mum Donnie supporter also suing them.
• 8:00
  Speaker 1: Donnie see these people that know what they voted for.
• 8:04
  Speaker 1: They're now shocked that he was gonna do this. But
• 8:09
  Speaker 1: his idea of fairness is to by the way, this
• 8:14
  Speaker 1: this tax doesn't make sense. I gotta read you what
• 8:15
  Speaker 1: they also said about the tax which the search eires
• 8:18
  Speaker 1: asks those who own second homes by a five million
• 8:21
  Speaker 1: dollars or more to contribute their fair share to the
• 8:23
  Speaker 1: city they benefit from. Uh you know, and this guy
• 8:29
  Speaker 1: is a Matt Rosenback that said this a rashing back.
• 8:32
  Speaker 1: I don't even care how he pronounces the theme spokes
• 8:34
  Speaker 1: for the mayor. This mac guy says, Oh, it's to
• 8:37
  Speaker 1: get back to the benefit. You know what you're gonna do.
• 8:39
  Speaker 1: You're not gonna have them benefit the city they give
• 8:42
  Speaker 1: that they work, and they're gonna have them make and
• 8:44
  Speaker 1: leave the city. This isn't gonna make them inspire to
• 8:48
  Speaker 1: help out in New York City. No, you know what
• 8:50
  Speaker 1: you do? You let them invest the way they want
• 8:51
  Speaker 1: to win the city and leave them the f alone.
• 8:55
  Speaker 1: Let me say that again, leave these people alone. You
• 8:59
  Speaker 1: want them to con to the city, They're already doing
• 9:01
  Speaker 1: it by investing their time, their energy, their money here
• 9:04
  Speaker 1: to tax them even more, it says, ef, We're gonna
• 9:07
  Speaker 1: go to Florida. We still haven't gotten the four hundred
• 9:09
  Speaker 1: and twenty thousand people that left here six years ago.
• 9:14
  Speaker 1: We haven't. Not all of them came back. And I
• 9:19
  Speaker 1: do blame Adams in a way because he could have
• 9:21
  Speaker 1: done something about the unvaccinated being fired. He could have
• 9:24
  Speaker 1: brought those people back, and he never did that. Now
• 9:28
  Speaker 1: this guy says we're gonna dox nine erndred thousand people
• 9:31
  Speaker 1: and issued seventeen thousand notices more and six the government
• 9:34
  Speaker 1: on hard working New Yorkers who are gonna leave this
• 9:38
  Speaker 1: city eventually, if not tomorrow. And then you add in
• 9:44
  Speaker 1: the fact that a political opponent, a Republican councilman, has
• 9:50
  Speaker 1: his family docksed. It's alarming, it's eye opening, and it's
• 9:59
  Speaker 1: also incredible that many of these people that were taxed
• 10:02
  Speaker 1: probably were of them at these supporters, and now they
• 10:05
  Speaker 1: shock that he's doing this. Why you didn't hear him
• 10:08
  Speaker 1: closely during the election, he kept saying a fair city. Well,
• 10:14
  Speaker 1: this is what his idea of a fair city is.
• 10:17
  Speaker 1: It's not actually making things affordable. It's about taking money
• 10:21
  Speaker 1: from others and like trying to redistribute it, which is
• 10:25
  Speaker 1: what socialism is. You know, if you really want to
• 10:28
  Speaker 1: make the city affordable, why are our apartments five thousand dollars?
• 10:31
  Speaker 1: Why not lower the rents for people who actually need
• 10:34
  Speaker 1: rent assistance. He's also breaking down buildings to build houses
• 10:40
  Speaker 1: and doing site tours on these things. It's not a
• 10:45
  Speaker 1: real affordability win. It's a guys to tax up the wazoo.
• 10:56
  Speaker 1: And if you think it's gonna stay here, wait till
• 10:58
  Speaker 1: the middle income people get it next. He's not gonna
• 11:02
  Speaker 1: stop at the millionaires. Ef it. We all thought he's
• 11:04
  Speaker 1: gonna do it as the billionaires, or he went lower.
• 11:06
  Speaker 1: He went to the millionaires. What's on to the millionaires?
• 11:09
  Speaker 1: The middle class, that's what's next. You watch, that's what's
• 11:14
  Speaker 1: gonna be next. And average every day New Yorkers or
• 11:17
  Speaker 1: just trying to make it by are gonna be docksed
• 11:20
  Speaker 1: eventually if we don't do something about this, if we
• 11:23
  Speaker 1: don't speak up about it, if there aren't amazing judges
• 11:26
  Speaker 1: like this Staten Island Supreme Court justice who made this ruling,
• 11:34
  Speaker 1: Wayne Ozzie issued the temporary restraining order, effectively putting the
• 11:38
  Speaker 1: luxury second home tax on ice until at least August thirty. First.
• 11:43
  Speaker 1: I hope it's on ice forever. And I hope the
• 11:45
  Speaker 1: people that sued and joined this suit, and thank God
• 11:49
  Speaker 1: for Randy Mastrow, who was actually in the AMAS administration.
• 11:51
  Speaker 1: He's the one who helped file this. I hope those
• 11:54
  Speaker 1: people like Simon think hard and long about what they
• 11:58
  Speaker 1: voted for. And who they voted for. And I don't
• 12:04
  Speaker 1: know if we do recalls here. I wish we did.
• 12:07
  Speaker 1: But it's about time. You know, the whole idea of
• 12:12
  Speaker 1: him stripping away protections for Jewish people when he first
• 12:17
  Speaker 1: got into office, his non condemnation of those protesting outside
• 12:22
  Speaker 1: synagogues and heavily protesting. I remind you with anti semitic slurs,
• 12:26
  Speaker 1: him not condemning that, him not condemning the anti Semitic
• 12:32
  Speaker 1: swastikas that were outside the elementary schools the day after
• 12:36
  Speaker 1: he got elected. The list goes on and on, but
• 12:40
  Speaker 1: this tops it from me. Now he's saying we're gonna
• 12:44
  Speaker 1: go after New Yorkers by exposing them nine hundred thousand,
• 12:47
  Speaker 1: and by sending letters to those that are stunned they
• 12:49
  Speaker 1: even got it. It's time a change needs to happen.
• 12:57
  Speaker 1: It's no wonder, and we're hoping it's okay. It's no wonder.
• 12:59
  Speaker 1: Scott Libato keep getting pissed at this guy because he
• 13:02
  Speaker 1: keeps doing things over and over. It's no wonder. Staten
• 13:04
  Speaker 1: Island boot him off the state, Mam Donnie off the
• 13:06
  Speaker 1: stage on National Night Out? What's even doing a National
• 13:09
  Speaker 1: Night Out? I don't want him at the memorial either.
• 13:11
  Speaker 1: I'm sorry, I don't want him at the nine to
• 13:13
  Speaker 1: eleven memorial at this point. Not because of his ethnicity, No,
• 13:18
  Speaker 1: it's because of the way he's been treating New Yorkers
• 13:21
  Speaker 1: since he got into office. If he was treating us
• 13:25
  Speaker 1: better as mayor, I'd consider okay, maybe he should, but
• 13:28
  Speaker 1: he's just not been. And he went on Piker's podcast,
• 13:32
  Speaker 1: and Piker, by the way, he said, oh, nine eleven
• 13:35
  Speaker 1: was good for America. Why would we want a mayor
• 13:37
  Speaker 1: who was on a podcast, whether it's on Piker, to
• 13:39
  Speaker 1: show up at a nine on memorial. We wouldn't and
• 13:43
  Speaker 1: we shouldn't want that. This summer has been whirlwind, and
• 13:50
  Speaker 1: it's been a great summer, but I have to get
• 13:53
  Speaker 1: back to that dose of reality that we're living in
• 13:56
  Speaker 1: the city where leadership things is okay to put nice.
• 14:00
  Speaker 1: There's thousand people on a database and for the public
• 14:02
  Speaker 1: to see that list better not be up there. Ever again,
• 14:06
  Speaker 1: after this ruling is restraining order, and then we're seeing
• 14:11
  Speaker 1: an administration say, well, we want to give quicker responses,
• 14:14
  Speaker 1: but we can't do that with a restraining order. We
• 14:16
  Speaker 1: don't care about responses where kill you did this in
• 14:18
  Speaker 1: the first place. What are you not getting? What are
• 14:24
  Speaker 1: you not getting? We care that you did this in
• 14:26
  Speaker 1: the first place, And so yes, I wasn't gonna stay
• 14:31
  Speaker 1: silent as New York City mayor Mom Donnie docs one
• 14:34
  Speaker 1: hundreds thousand people, including people I care about, that wasn't
• 14:38
  Speaker 1: gonna get past me. And it will never get past
• 14:41
  Speaker 1: me because here at one look at alex Media. We
• 14:44
  Speaker 1: talk sports, we talk adaptability, but we also talk about accountability,
• 14:49
  Speaker 1: and we got to hold this guy accountable. We all
• 14:51
  Speaker 1: to call him out when he needs to be called out.
• 14:53
  Speaker 1: It seems like every week he does something, but it's
• 14:55
  Speaker 1: getting worse and worse. This is the cream of the
• 14:58
  Speaker 1: crop right now. This is the alarm bell we needed
• 15:03
  Speaker 1: to see and then got for a judge for stopping it.
• 15:07
  Speaker 1: But it's just a foreshadow because if he's gonna go
• 15:12
  Speaker 1: after hard working Americans that make millions and not just billions,
• 15:16
  Speaker 1: what's to say he's not going to go after the
• 15:17
  Speaker 1: middle class. This is becoming class warfare New York Posts.
• 15:21
  Speaker 1: I agree with you, this really is and we should
• 15:25
  Speaker 1: not tolerate it in New York City. And that's my
• 15:28
  Speaker 1: message at one, like a alex Media
