  Speaker 1: Now Seor presents no Mark Simon Shaw.
• 0:10
  Speaker 2: Hey, it's Friday already. That's the good news. It's gonna
• 0:13
  Speaker 2: be pretty nice. There'll be a shower, a thundershow otherwise
• 0:16
  Speaker 2: it would be a nice sun is out not bad today.
• 0:18
  Speaker 2: We got a lot to get to. We'll get to Iran.
• 0:20
  Speaker 2: There's some serious threats from Iran, but we'll be able
• 0:24
  Speaker 2: to deal with them. We'll get some crazy mom Donnie.
• 0:27
  Speaker 2: We'll get to We'll get to Marco Rubio just made
• 0:32
  Speaker 2: a great move. We'll get to that. We'll get to
• 0:33
  Speaker 2: these stupid e bikes, and a whole lot more coming up.
• 0:37
  Speaker 2: We'll get to the Rolling Stones and Taylor Swift, we
• 0:42
  Speaker 2: get the real cost of the wedding, and a whole
• 0:44
  Speaker 2: lot more coming up. You may have seen the President Trump,
• 0:48
  Speaker 2: who's got this big new Air Force one. Cutter gave
• 0:53
  Speaker 2: us a jet, the most spectacular jet. It's a flying palace.
• 0:57
  Speaker 2: It's way beyond Air Force one inside and beauty and luxury,
• 1:02
  Speaker 2: and the Pentagon refitted it to make it, put in
• 1:05
  Speaker 2: all the security, safety, communications, everything they need in Air
• 1:09
  Speaker 2: Force one. Cost a couple hundred million to do that,
• 1:12
  Speaker 2: and the President's been using that plane. But when he
• 1:14
  Speaker 2: left the NATO summit, all of a sudden, they brought
• 1:17
  Speaker 2: back the old Air Force one. He made up some
• 1:23
  Speaker 2: excuse about how the new one was in England so
• 1:25
  Speaker 2: that the military could take a look at it. It didn't
• 1:28
  Speaker 2: make any sense. His explanation making no sense. Obviously it
• 1:32
  Speaker 2: was for security reasons. Apparently the old Air Force one
• 1:36
  Speaker 2: has incredible anti missile defense systems in it and the
• 1:40
  Speaker 2: new one doesn't. Now, the present was in another part
• 1:45
  Speaker 2: of the world NATO summit. It's one thing if you're
• 1:47
  Speaker 2: flying around within America, you really don't have to worry
• 1:50
  Speaker 2: about a missile threat. But when you're in the Middle
• 1:52
  Speaker 2: East or somewhere else, you gotta worry about it. He
• 1:55
  Speaker 2: was in Turkey, and apparently our intelligence got worse that
• 2:00
  Speaker 2: Iran was going to try to kill him. That Air
• 2:02
  Speaker 2: Force one was a target. Israeli intelligence, which is very good,
• 2:08
  Speaker 2: notified us that they were picking up a threat against
• 2:11
  Speaker 2: Air Force one. So that's why the old Air Force
• 2:14
  Speaker 2: one was quickly brought over there. He could fly back
• 2:16
  Speaker 2: on that because it has a full anti missile defense system.
• 2:20
  Speaker 2: But I've never seen this before. If you look at
• 2:23
  Speaker 2: some of the pictures, it had an incredible escort of
• 2:27
  Speaker 2: military fighter jets. I've seen it before where Air Force
• 2:31
  Speaker 2: one is flying and there's two or three fighter jets
• 2:33
  Speaker 2: on one on each side and one behind it to
• 2:35
  Speaker 2: protect it.
• 2:37
  Speaker 3: But this.
• 2:39
  Speaker 2: Was fifteen or twenty fighter jets surrounding Air Force One
• 2:43
  Speaker 2: as it left, as it crossed the ocean until it
• 2:45
  Speaker 2: got back to the US. Never never seen that before.
• 2:49
  Speaker 2: So they're taking this threat very seriously. We knew that
• 2:54
  Speaker 2: the Iran had been targeting President Trump for assassination last
• 2:58
  Speaker 2: couple of years, and pretty much everybody believes now that's
• 3:01
  Speaker 2: what Butler was Pennsylvania the last two assassination attempts. It
• 3:06
  Speaker 2: doesn't usually with an assassin like that. You find some
• 3:13
  Speaker 2: crazy nutjob want to be assassin, and then if you're
• 3:16
  Speaker 2: Iran or.
• 3:16
  Speaker 4: Whoever, you back the guy.
• 3:18
  Speaker 2: You get him to the right place and give them
• 3:21
  Speaker 2: support and you get them to you get this guy
• 3:24
  Speaker 2: to take the shot. A lot of people think that's
• 3:25
  Speaker 2: what Lea. Harvey Oswald was. He was an assassin all
• 3:30
  Speaker 2: his life, but he was a nut who's always trying
• 3:31
  Speaker 2: to shoot people. So a lot of people believe the
• 3:34
  Speaker 2: Russians or the Cubans, or the mob or somebody found
• 3:37
  Speaker 2: this guy and got them up there in that window.
• 3:40
  Speaker 4: So that's a big threat.
• 3:42
  Speaker 2: Now, apparently Iran has sent a lot of deadly drones
• 3:48
  Speaker 2: to Cuba, a lot of them. They've given Cuba three
• 3:54
  Speaker 2: hundred kami Kazi drones. They're pretty deadly, and they've got
• 3:57
  Speaker 2: long range. These drones can go fifteen hundred miles. Cuba
• 4:02
  Speaker 2: is only ninety miles from Florida, so they've given them
• 4:06
  Speaker 2: three hundred Kamakazi drones. They're heavily armed. They can pack
• 4:10
  Speaker 2: up to one hundred and ten pounds of explosives each
• 4:15
  Speaker 2: and again they got a range of fifteen hundred miles,
• 4:19
  Speaker 2: three hundred of them. Now, we have great defense against drones.
• 4:22
  Speaker 2: We have all sorts of defenses that can spot a
• 4:25
  Speaker 2: drone and take it out. The only problem is, and
• 4:30
  Speaker 2: this happened with Israel a couple of times. You know,
• 4:32
  Speaker 2: you send ten drones, we can take them out and
• 4:34
  Speaker 2: knock them down. If you send like two hundred at
• 4:36
  Speaker 2: a time, and it happened in Israel a couple times,
• 4:40
  Speaker 2: you don't get every one of them. Sometimes one or
• 4:43
  Speaker 2: two could get through. Now this is fifteen hundred miles.
• 4:46
  Speaker 2: Obviously Florida would be principal target. I know we got
• 4:51
  Speaker 2: a lot of listeners in Florida, but this is like
• 4:54
  Speaker 2: Cuban missile crisis all over again. So now there's a
• 4:58
  Speaker 2: kind of a race against the clock. One we'd have
• 5:01
  Speaker 2: to stop these drones if they're ever used. But also
• 5:04
  Speaker 2: we are in the process of liberating Cuba, of freeing
• 5:09
  Speaker 2: Cuba from the communist government there, all sorts of steps
• 5:13
  Speaker 2: have been in the works for the last couple of years.
• 5:15
  Speaker 2: If we can get this done very fast and take
• 5:18
  Speaker 2: over that government, we wouldn't take it over, but allies
• 5:21
  Speaker 2: of ours would take it over. You know, the Cuban people,
• 5:25
  Speaker 2: Cubans in Florida, they've already recruited to go back there
• 5:28
  Speaker 2: and run things. So that would be important right now
• 5:32
  Speaker 2: with this drone threat. So we'll keep an eye on
• 5:34
  Speaker 2: all of that for you. We are striking Iran as
• 5:38
  Speaker 2: we speak.
• 5:39
  Speaker 4: We're back.
• 5:41
  Speaker 2: President Trump called the last attacks, remember months ago, a
• 5:45
  Speaker 2: couple of months ago, the original a couple of weeks
• 5:47
  Speaker 2: of attacks. He called that a love tap. He's calling
• 5:51
  Speaker 2: this one a bitch slap. Now, bitch slap usually means
• 5:56
  Speaker 2: something very painful but brief, not too long, but very
• 6:00
  Speaker 2: seriously painful. So this is going to be a real
• 6:04
  Speaker 2: serious attack, way beyond what we did last time. They're
• 6:07
  Speaker 2: hitting about ninety five one hundred targets a day, and
• 6:11
  Speaker 2: serious military targets, taking out all kinds of stuff. This
• 6:15
  Speaker 2: series of attacks is expected to go about seven weeks.
• 6:20
  Speaker 2: Seven weeks that these attacks should be pretty deadly to Iran.
• 6:25
  Speaker 2: It'd be interesting to see what's left after seven weeks.
• 6:27
  Speaker 2: Might not be much of anything. You know, they had
• 6:30
  Speaker 2: the funeral for the Ayatola Kamane. It's been a couple
• 6:33
  Speaker 2: months since he was killed. They waited that long, so
• 6:36
  Speaker 2: they thought it was safe. They did this so recently,
• 6:38
  Speaker 2: and at the funeral, we watch it from the sky
• 6:42
  Speaker 2: satellite photos. We're watching the funeral. Thousands and thousands showed
• 6:46
  Speaker 2: up for the funeral as they buried the Iatola Komane.
• 6:49
  Speaker 2: But they unfurled an enormous, enormous banner that called for
• 6:55
  Speaker 2: Trump's assassination. Apparently the crowd was calling for it. Kinds
• 7:00
  Speaker 2: of banners. I swear by the blood of the Supreme
• 7:03
  Speaker 2: Leader Trump, we will kill you. So this is a
• 7:07
  Speaker 2: part of all of this.
• 7:08
  Speaker 4: You know.
• 7:08
  Speaker 2: The guy was sitting right over there a block away
• 7:11
  Speaker 2: at Trump Tower, having a great life, a great time.
• 7:15
  Speaker 2: I don't know why you want to go be president.
• 7:16
  Speaker 2: I guess it's a dream to be president. But in Iran,
• 7:23
  Speaker 2: I got a banner we swear by the Ayatola, we
• 7:26
  Speaker 2: will kill you. Who needs this? Who needs to go
• 7:29
  Speaker 2: through this? He's already had three assassination attempts on him.
• 7:34
  Speaker 2: Who needs to go through this? It's crazy, Mayor Mom,
• 7:38
  Speaker 2: Donnie Well, everybody is fuming and furious, especially the Italian community.
• 7:45
  Speaker 2: He put out this map. He thought this would be
• 7:47
  Speaker 2: great to put out an ethnic map of New York
• 7:50
  Speaker 2: showing the different ethnic neighborhoods. And they were mostly Middle
• 7:56
  Speaker 2: Eastern ethnic neighborhoods. They were mostly ethnic neighborhoods. He forgot
• 8:02
  Speaker 2: to include Little Italy, which is obviously the most famous
• 8:07
  Speaker 2: ethnic neighborhood in New York City. He also forgot the
• 8:12
  Speaker 2: Irish neighborhoods. In fact, they were like originally the big
• 8:15
  Speaker 2: Irish neighborhoods, one in the Bronx, a couple in Queens.
• 8:18
  Speaker 2: He left all of that out. It's absolutely I mean,
• 8:22
  Speaker 2: it's insane. It's too stupid a mistake for anybody to
• 8:25
  Speaker 2: have actually made. Nobody could make a mistake. That stupid
• 8:29
  Speaker 2: leaving out little Italy. Obviously, if you're doing an ethnic map,
• 8:33
  Speaker 2: that's the first thing you'd put down. So it was
• 8:35
  Speaker 2: obviously deliberate. Obviously they were deliberately leaving out little Italy.
• 8:40
  Speaker 2: It's absolutely crazy. He's getting nothing but flack for it.
• 8:46
  Speaker 2: You gotta remember, as we were saying yesterday, anti well socialism.
• 8:50
  Speaker 2: Wherever it's come in the world, whether it was the
• 8:53
  Speaker 2: Nazi Socialism National Socialist Party that was the Nazis, wherever
• 8:58
  Speaker 2: the socialism comes, it brings with it anti Semitism. All
• 9:03
  Speaker 2: ten thousand times socialism has showed up, anti Semitism comes
• 9:07
  Speaker 2: with it. That's how it starts. Now, eventually these type
• 9:12
  Speaker 2: of socialists, it's anti Semitism, and then when they get
• 9:15
  Speaker 2: done with that, it's anti Catholic, and then it's anti Christian.
• 9:20
  Speaker 2: It happens every time. Anti Semitism is just the first wave.
• 9:24
  Speaker 2: It's the first wave of this stuff. But it's gonna
• 9:27
  Speaker 2: and that's why you're gonna see this discrimination against Italians Irish,
• 9:32
  Speaker 2: it's anti Semitism, then it's anti Catholic, and then it's
• 9:35
  Speaker 2: anti Christian. That's the real objective of all of this. Now,
• 9:39
  Speaker 2: these Democrats are going crazy, insane with the Platner, a
• 9:44
  Speaker 2: Nazi rapist, this is their candidate. And then in Minnesota
• 9:49
  Speaker 2: you got an illegal alien who raped a child. Miss
• 9:54
  Speaker 2: a criminal, illegal alien who raped a ten year old girl.
• 10:00
  Speaker 2: This is an illegal alien. He should be deported just
• 10:04
  Speaker 2: for that. But he also raped a ten year old girl.
• 10:07
  Speaker 2: Now ICE got him and was about to deport him.
• 10:11
  Speaker 2: He was charged locally in Minnesota. Now listen to this.
• 10:15
  Speaker 2: Governor Tim Waltz pardoned the guy. Governor Tim Waltz gave
• 10:22
  Speaker 2: the guy a pardon and granted him clemency, which legally
• 10:27
  Speaker 2: takes away the criminal status that was to stop him
• 10:31
  Speaker 2: from being removed by Ice. Can you believe this? This
• 10:36
  Speaker 2: is how insane they've gotten a child rapist they pardoned him.
• 10:40
  Speaker 2: I mean, he was guilty as hell, they pardoned him,
• 10:42
  Speaker 2: gave him clemency. Well, thank thank Marco Rubio. Marco Rubio.
• 10:48
  Speaker 2: Everybody was looking at this case and what the what
• 10:50
  Speaker 2: the FEDS could do about it. Marco Rubio has stepped
• 10:52
  Speaker 2: in as Secretary of State and on behalf of the
• 10:55
  Speaker 2: State Department has officially removed this guy's legal status. So
• 11:00
  Speaker 2: he has absolutely no legal status now in the United States.
• 11:05
  Speaker 2: That means Ice can remove him. That should happen pretty fast.
• 11:10
  Speaker 2: So great news, great move by Marco Rubio. I mean,
• 11:14
  Speaker 2: this is going to be a big issue in the midterms.
• 11:19
  Speaker 2: The issue is going to be communism, stopping communism and
• 11:23
  Speaker 2: stopping this crazy nonsense where you protect illegal aliens even
• 11:27
  Speaker 2: if they're raping children. It's going to be a hugeish member.
• 11:31
  Speaker 2: Affordability was the big issue. That's not a back burner now.
• 11:36
  Speaker 2: As we told you in Florida, Palm Beach International Airport
• 11:39
  Speaker 2: is now Donald Trump International Airport and President Trump speaking
• 11:45
  Speaker 2: about it, putting out truth socials and tweets and pronouncements,
• 11:49
  Speaker 2: saying it's a great day. It's a very big day.
• 11:53
  Speaker 2: It's spectacular. He's playing this up because he knows it
• 11:57
  Speaker 2: tortures half of Florida, the left wing half. All the
• 12:00
  Speaker 2: left wing cooks are fuming now. Because if you're down
• 12:04
  Speaker 2: there and you want to go somewhere, pom Beach Airport
• 12:06
  Speaker 2: is the place you want to go. It's the nicest airport,
• 12:09
  Speaker 2: it's the easiest, it's small, it's not like the Miami Airport.
• 12:13
  Speaker 2: Pom Beach Airport is so easy to get in and
• 12:15
  Speaker 2: out of, that's the airport you want to go through.
• 12:19
  Speaker 2: And now many of these left wing cooks saying they
• 12:21
  Speaker 2: will never go into that airport. They'll drive an extra
• 12:24
  Speaker 2: hour or two to go to Miami Airport or Fort
• 12:27
  Speaker 2: Lauderdale Airport the north of there. A couple of people
• 12:30
  Speaker 2: said they'll drive two hours to go to Orlando Airport.
• 12:33
  Speaker 2: They will not go through Donald J. Trump International Airport.
• 12:38
  Speaker 2: It's just the torture of them.
• 12:39
  Speaker 4: Now.
• 12:39
  Speaker 2: The other thing is to get there, you got to
• 12:41
  Speaker 2: take Donald J. Trump Boulevard, which has them fuming. But
• 12:45
  Speaker 2: then when you get to the airport, everywhere you look
• 12:48
  Speaker 2: is a Donald J. Trump sign every inch of the airport.
• 12:51
  Speaker 2: It's killing these left wing cooks. Trump loves it. Hey,
• 12:56
  Speaker 2: it's not inappropriate. All over the place, all over America,
• 13:01
  Speaker 2: they are airport's named for presidents, usually after they're gone.
• 13:04
  Speaker 2: That's true. But if the president was local, There's a
• 13:08
  Speaker 2: George Bushy Airport in Houston. There's an Abraham Lincoln Airport
• 13:12
  Speaker 2: in Illinois. It's done all the time for presidents. If
• 13:17
  Speaker 2: you do a great shot, we have a LaGuardia Airport
• 13:19
  Speaker 2: named for a great mayor. It's done all the time.
• 13:24
  Speaker 2: He's also got the boulevard named after him. You know
• 13:27
  Speaker 2: how many people in the world have a boulevard a
• 13:30
  Speaker 2: street named after them. It's very, very unusual. Frank Sinatra
• 13:35
  Speaker 2: in Palm Springs, you know what his address was, Frank
• 13:39
  Speaker 2: Sinatra Drive. Then he had named the street after him,
• 13:41
  Speaker 2: and that's where his house was. Frank, if you live
• 13:44
  Speaker 2: on the street that's named after you, that's pretty impressive.
• 13:48
  Speaker 2: It's a big thing now.
• 13:49
  Speaker 4: John F.
• 13:50
  Speaker 2: Kennedy course no longer with us, but you've got a
• 13:52
  Speaker 2: Kennedy airport, you got a Kennedy Center, you got so
• 13:55
  Speaker 2: much Kennedy stuff in again, it's done all the time,
• 13:59
  Speaker 2: and it's great to drive the left crazy. Hey, remind
• 14:03
  Speaker 2: me to get to this. You know, we've been talking
• 14:04
  Speaker 2: about these e bikes and all these bikes. They're the
• 14:08
  Speaker 2: most reckless, crazy, dangerous things all over and there's so
• 14:11
  Speaker 2: busy torturing cars. They don't realize all the pedestrian accidents
• 14:15
  Speaker 2: and trouble comes from the bikes, especially the e bikes,
• 14:18
  Speaker 2: because they're so fast. Give them, make them get licenses,
• 14:22
  Speaker 2: make them, give them tickets all the time. Stop the recklessness.
• 14:27
  Speaker 2: By the way, you'd make a fortune if they all
• 14:29
  Speaker 2: had to get licenses then have to renew them every year.
• 14:31
  Speaker 2: If they were all paying tickets all the time, incredible
• 14:34
  Speaker 2: source of revenue. New York won't do it. Well, New
• 14:37
  Speaker 2: Jersey has done it. It starts in I think a
• 14:41
  Speaker 2: week and a half being enforced in New Jersey. Now,
• 14:44
  Speaker 2: e bike, you got to get a license, you can
• 14:46
  Speaker 2: get tickets, you got to get permits. It's a great thing.
• 14:50
  Speaker 2: Watch what they do. It'll be a model for the
• 14:52
  Speaker 2: rest of the country. If New York had any sense,
• 14:56
  Speaker 2: they would do that and would bring in a ton
• 14:58
  Speaker 2: of revenue. You wouldn't need congestion in pricing, you wouldn't
• 15:00
  Speaker 2: need all that crap. But hey, we'll get back to it.
• 15:03
  Speaker 2: We'll take some calls next. Eight hundred three two one
• 15:07
  Speaker 2: zero seven ten is the number. Eight hundred three two
• 15:11
  Speaker 2: one zero seven ten.

  Speaker 2: Josh in Palm Beach. Josh, how you doing, Hey, Mark,
• 15:36
  Speaker 2: how you doing.
• 15:37
  Speaker 5: I wanted to I question asked you. I was a
• 15:39
  Speaker 5: sense of SID this morning, and he had Michael Cohen on,
• 15:42
  Speaker 5: and he said that he patched things up with Donald Trump.
• 15:45
  Speaker 6: Is have you heard anything about that?
• 15:47
  Speaker 2: Yes, that's true, they've patched things up. What are you
• 15:52
  Speaker 2: listening to the SID for? Why aren't you listening to Curtis
• 15:54
  Speaker 2: and Larry? Where do you go?
• 15:58
  Speaker 4: He left?
• 15:59
  Speaker 2: I mean, I like SID, but he's supposed to listen
• 16:01
  Speaker 2: to Curtis and Ley.
• 16:02
  Speaker 4: Yeah.
• 16:03
  Speaker 2: Michael Cohen, or as he would say, Michael Cohen is
• 16:06
  Speaker 2: so going to do a radio now. He apparently said
• 16:11
  Speaker 2: this this morning. Uh, he's gonna be the next Rush Limbaugh.
• 16:20
  Speaker 2: That's like me saying I'm gonna be the next Aaron Judge.
• 16:22
  Speaker 2: He's gonna be the next Rush Loombo. Even though he
• 16:25
  Speaker 2: talks like this, he's gonna be the next Rush Loombo.
• 16:29
  Speaker 2: Uh you know, well, I think he's gonna be the
• 16:30
  Speaker 2: next Andrew Cuomo, who now holds the record for the
• 16:33
  Speaker 2: worst radio show ever. It only lasted about seven weeks. Uh, listen,
• 16:39
  Speaker 2: he's not a bad guy, Michael Cohen, And if the
• 16:41
  Speaker 2: President wants to forgive him, I guess we should too.
• 16:43
  Speaker 2: But him doing a radio show is like me opening
• 16:47
  Speaker 2: a law firm. It's not gonna work. Let's go to
• 16:50
  Speaker 2: Rich and Myrtle Beach Rich, how you doing.
• 16:53
  Speaker 5: Hey, thanks, Mark, appreciate it. You know, besides the press
• 16:57
  Speaker 5: being the enemy of the state, our Senate has become
• 17:00
  Speaker 5: in the state. John Soon has done absolutely nothing. Fifty
• 17:04
  Speaker 5: bills of sitting in Congress that haven't been approved. He's
• 17:06
  Speaker 5: done no federal judge ships for Donald Trump. He's fighting
• 17:10
  Speaker 5: Trump all the way by doing one of these silent
• 17:12
  Speaker 5: quitting jobs. The guy has an absolute disgrace and needs
• 17:15
  Speaker 5: to be replaced.
• 17:16
  Speaker 2: Yeah, but the problem is you're right, You're right, but
• 17:19
  Speaker 2: you're right behind him. He got a million people just
• 17:21
  Speaker 2: as bad. It's they all stink, these Democrats, these Republicans.
• 17:24
  Speaker 5: Then Senate Congress, you have the role to which are
• 17:26
  Speaker 5: doing everything they can to screw the people. Look at
• 17:29
  Speaker 5: the gas prices and everything else going on here. But
• 17:32
  Speaker 5: John Thuon just another Mitch McConnell. Least, when Mitch McConnell's
• 17:36
  Speaker 5: wife became the Secretary of Transportation, McConnell was very good.
• 17:40
  Speaker 5: They got a lot of federal judges passed under Donald Trump.
• 17:43
  Speaker 5: John Soon has done zero judges.
• 17:45
  Speaker 2: No, he's horrible. We got it, we got it, got
• 17:48
  Speaker 2: we got it, we got it. No, he's horrible. But
• 17:50
  Speaker 2: the problem is Democrats and Republicans in Congress, all they
• 17:54
  Speaker 2: do is try to do favors, collect the donations, take
• 17:58
  Speaker 2: care of.
• 17:58
  Speaker 7: Talk talk talk talk talk.
• 18:00
  Speaker 2: Well, they got their own business. Like Schumer, he's just
• 18:02
  Speaker 2: donor service all day long. Nothing else that he's worried
• 18:06
  Speaker 2: about it. Now, they're all terrible. Democrats and Republicans just
• 18:09
  Speaker 2: as bad in the Senate. Let's go to Robert in Westchester. Robert,

• 18:26
  Speaker 8: and father who lost their child, who was going to
• 18:28
  Speaker 8: Liola that congressional meeting and what that silp of a
• 18:32
  Speaker 8: congresswoman said, it's terrible what happened, but that wood should
• 18:37
  Speaker 8: have never been applied. Furthermore, in Minnesota, they should put
• 18:41
  Speaker 8: what Tim Walst died on a constant loop.
• 18:44
  Speaker 2: Yeah, they do, well, they do, they do, they do.
• 18:46

  Speaker 2: you got to remember, if you're watching Fox or Newsmax,
• 18:55

  Speaker 2: Catering was about two point five million, eleven hundred guests.
• 23:51
  Speaker 2: But they didn't just have a caterer come in and

• 24:37
  Speaker 2: much to me?
• 24:39
  Speaker 3: Yeah?
• 24:39
  Speaker 2: It is because down the whole Q and O four
• 24:41
  Speaker 2: in honor of this, they got buffets all over the place.
• 24:43
  Speaker 2: There's so much food. Really, yes, celebrating this. I should
• 24:47
  Speaker 2: come right over. Yeah.
• 24:48
  Speaker 4: Well, I'll tell you what. It's a great album. It's
• 24:52
  Speaker 4: called Foreign Tongues, and the Stones marketing people have done
• 24:57
  Speaker 4: an amazing job. There's so many hit singles on it.
• 25:02
  Speaker 4: There's a song called Mister Charm that everyone's going to
• 25:04
  Speaker 4: go crazy for. There's fourteen songs and they've never sounded better.
• 25:11
  Speaker 4: This is the craziest thing, you know. This is their
• 25:14
  Speaker 4: sixty second year in business and they've never sounded better.
• 25:18
  Speaker 4: They put on just Ronnie Wood and Mick Jagger put
• 25:22
  Speaker 4: on a little show the other night in London in
• 25:25
  Speaker 4: like a coffee cocktail thing where they played you Can't
• 25:29
  Speaker 4: Always Get what you Want and a couple of the
• 25:31
  Speaker 4: new songs and you know it just played them acoustically
• 25:34
  Speaker 4: and they sounded fresher than ever. So it's amazing, better
• 25:39
  Speaker 4: than ever. It's really crazy. Yeah. You know, some people
• 25:43
  Speaker 4: are having trouble keeping their voices or getting their voices back,
• 25:47
  Speaker 4: and Mick Jaggers had no problems whatsoever. He just keeps
• 25:52
  Speaker 4: doing it and he's not being augmented it anyway, because
• 25:55
  Speaker 4: he was live the other night in this little you know,
• 25:58
  Speaker 4: coffee thing and cocktail thing and he sounds great. So
• 26:03
  Speaker 4: I don't know how they're doing it. You know, this
• 26:06
  Speaker 4: was a group known for drugs and now they're known
• 26:08
  Speaker 4: for vitamins. Wow, so you know they know what they're doing.
• 26:12
  Speaker 2: Yeah, they always have these things, you know, how to
• 26:14
  Speaker 2: live longer, what you should eat, how you should can
• 26:16
  Speaker 2: maintain what health nutrition. These guys prove all of that wrong,
• 26:19
  Speaker 2: all of them.
• 26:21
  Speaker 4: Well. Keith certainly did have problems for a long time,
• 26:26
  Speaker 4: although now he's very clean and sort of you know,
• 26:29
  Speaker 4: he espouses you know, good living. He's in New York,
• 26:33
  Speaker 4: so he didn't go to the Linden thing. Nick was
• 26:37
  Speaker 4: never a big druggie and he's always been into exercise,
• 26:40
  Speaker 4: and look how lean and mean he is. But they're
• 26:45
  Speaker 4: terrific and they're going to have the number one album
• 26:48
  Speaker 4: by the end of the day and everyone should get it.
• 26:52
  Speaker 4: I tell you, I love this song, mister charm. I
• 26:55
  Speaker 4: really think that's gonna be a big hit. And they've
• 26:58
  Speaker 4: got seven tracks this morning on the iTunes top one hundred,
• 27:03
  Speaker 4: which is crazy. That's completely crazy.
• 27:06
  Speaker 2: Now, how do you compare it to the new Paul
• 27:08
  Speaker 2: McCartney album.
• 27:10
  Speaker 4: You know, they're both produced by this guy, Andrew Watt,
• 27:13
  Speaker 4: who also works with Lady Gaga and is a very
• 27:16
  Speaker 4: talented producer, and he knows how to get the best
• 27:19
  Speaker 4: at of all these people. The Paul McCartney album is
• 27:22
  Speaker 4: also very very good. Dungeon Lane, Boys of Dungeon Lane.
• 27:26
  Speaker 4: I'm enjoying all the tracks on it. There's one called
• 27:29
  Speaker 4: Loss to Horizon be a single, and you know, these
• 27:34
  Speaker 4: guys are really they're proving themselves this summer. Even Madonna
• 27:40
  Speaker 4: has a gigantic kid with her Confessions album. Carly Simon's
• 27:45
  Speaker 4: coming with a big her first album in eighteen years
• 27:47
  Speaker 4: in August. Yes No. And there's a song now on
• 27:51
  Speaker 4: that she's put out on YouTube called Howell that's maybe
• 27:55
  Speaker 4: one of the best songs she's ever written. So you see,
• 27:58
  Speaker 4: there's a renaissance here. These guys are all reclaiming their
• 28:01
  Speaker 4: legacies and it's fun to watch.
• 28:05
  Speaker 2: So why all of a sudden this year, Why all
• 28:08
  Speaker 2: of a sudden, now did they all come up?
• 28:10
  Speaker 4: I think all of a sudden they all looked around
• 28:12
  Speaker 4: and said, you know, these young people do not have
• 28:14
  Speaker 4: staying power, and we can do it. Also, the young
• 28:17
  Speaker 4: acts like Taylor Swift always cites Carly Simon as one
• 28:20
  Speaker 4: of her influences. The rock bands all you know, everybody
• 28:24
  Speaker 4: cites Paul McCartney and the Rolling Stones, And I think
• 28:27
  Speaker 4: that these groups know that they have a responsibility to show,
• 28:31
  Speaker 4: you know, what it is that being talked about and
• 28:33
  Speaker 4: being heralded so much. We'll see more of it before
• 28:37
  Speaker 4: the end of the year. All right. It's nice. They're
• 28:40
  Speaker 4: real musicians and they're also playing real music. You know,
• 28:42
  Speaker 4: there's a lot of AI on the charts right now.
• 28:45
  Speaker 4: Spotify is trying to weed out the AI songs. That's
• 28:51
  Speaker 4: a big problem on streaming. There's a lot of fake stuff.
• 28:54
  Speaker 4: So the real thing. I heard last night bon Jovi
• 28:58
  Speaker 4: played the Madison Square Garden and I was coming home
• 29:01
  Speaker 4: on the train and I heard these people all raving
• 29:04
  Speaker 4: about the show. And he's gotten his voice back. He's
• 29:07
  Speaker 4: better than ever. Paul McCartney was in the audience. So
• 29:12
  Speaker 4: even bon Jovi's having this big, you know, renaissance, so
• 29:17
  Speaker 4: you know, and I'm hoping that we'll see Steven Tyler
• 29:19
  Speaker 4: and Aerosmith at some point, but ok, oh no, I
• 29:24
  Speaker 4: love Steven Tyler. I'd love to hear them come back.
• 29:28
  Speaker 4: But it's great. You know, it's just great and the
• 29:32
  Speaker 4: songs mean something to people.
• 29:34
  Speaker 3: You know.
• 29:36
  Speaker 4: Chicago Saturday in the Park fourth, you know, it was
• 29:40
  Speaker 4: the fourth of July. This past fourth of July was
• 29:43
  Speaker 4: the first and last Saturday that July fourth has hit
• 29:46
  Speaker 4: on in years and it won't come back until twenty
• 29:48
  Speaker 4: thirty seven. It sent the song Saturday in the Park
• 29:51
  Speaker 4: up to number one on iTunes for the day, which
• 29:54
  Speaker 4: was really funny. I'm sure the group got a good
• 29:56
  Speaker 4: laugh out of that. Yeah, so you know, everything's rocking.
• 30:00
  Speaker 4: Everybody's good. I saw a great Broadway show last night.
• 30:05
  Speaker 2: Which was Smiga doing, Oh well, everybody's raving about that.
• 30:10
  Speaker 4: Doing everyone's raving. I finally, you know, I sort of
• 30:13
  Speaker 4: passed it up when it was first opening because I thought, oh,
• 30:15
  Speaker 4: it's like that TV show they had.
• 30:17
  Speaker 2: Wait a minute, there was an opening you didn't go to.
• 30:19
  Speaker 2: I don't belok.
• 30:20
  Speaker 4: I didn't go to it. I think I went to
• 30:22
  Speaker 4: some movie thing and I said, I was swiggering, I'll
• 30:25
  Speaker 4: catch up with it. Of course, I won the Tony Award,
• 30:27
  Speaker 4: and I finally saw it last night, and I got
• 30:31
  Speaker 4: to tell you, it's completely sold out. It's absolutely hilarious.
• 30:36
  Speaker 9: Uh.
• 30:36
  Speaker 4: It's a send up of all the Rogers and Hammerstein
• 30:39
  Speaker 4: and all the classic musicals you know from the forties
• 30:41
  Speaker 4: and fifties. But it's very clever and the audience, I
• 30:45
  Speaker 4: got to say, the audience you know some I don't
• 30:48
  Speaker 4: often sit in an audience with completely where I don't
• 30:50
  Speaker 4: know anybody. I have to say, this was a cross
• 30:53
  Speaker 4: section of America. It was every size, shape, color, gender, everything,
• 31:00
  Speaker 4: and they loved it. They were they were The applause
• 31:04
  Speaker 4: was thunderous. And this was on a Thursday night with
• 31:06
  Speaker 4: regular people. So it shows you the show's a hit.
• 31:10
  Speaker 2: Yeah no, but for you you always go to the
• 31:12
  Speaker 2: opening where the whole audience is your fellow jaded media elitist.
• 31:15
  Speaker 2: This was an actual, real people.
• 31:19
  Speaker 4: Or investors who put money into the show. So of
• 31:22
  Speaker 4: course they're clapping very loudly. But last night it was
• 31:24
  Speaker 4: just like I'm telling you. I was waiting with and
• 31:27
  Speaker 4: I was waiting for a friend with one of the
• 31:29
  Speaker 4: ushers in the lobby, and we're seeing the people pour
• 31:33
  Speaker 4: in from the outside line and I said, gee, this
• 31:35
  Speaker 4: really is This is everyone that you can't beat it.
• 31:39
  Speaker 4: It's so hysterical. That's a great thing about Broadway. It's
• 31:43
  Speaker 4: very egalitarian. It's not it's it's not a stuffy place.
• 31:48
  Speaker 4: It's you see everything and everyone. People on walkers, wheelchairs, burneys.
• 31:52
  Speaker 4: They're coming, you know, they'll they'll come in any form. Well,
• 31:56
  Speaker 4: it is.
• 31:56
  Speaker 2: Broadways kind of designed for tourists nowadays. I mean that
• 31:59
  Speaker 2: would gets well.
• 32:00
  Speaker 4: No, I think there are a lot of There were
• 32:01
  Speaker 4: a lot of New Yorkers. I heard a lot of
• 32:02
  Speaker 4: New York accents on the line. So no, there were
• 32:05
  Speaker 4: a lot of New Yorkers waiting to get inside.
• 32:07
  Speaker 2: But they're from Long Island. That counts as tourists. No,
• 32:10
  Speaker 2: those are the tourists from.
• 32:11
  Speaker 4: The Upper West Side. They're from the Upper West Side
• 32:15
  Speaker 4: where people shouldn't be from.
• 32:16
  Speaker 2: Those are the investors, you know, those investors that go yeahs,
• 32:23
  Speaker 2: those rich housewives that infest so we only get a
• 32:28
  Speaker 2: few seconds. Broadway overall is doing well, isn't it.
• 32:31
  Speaker 4: Yeah, it's doing pretty good.
• 32:33
  Speaker 7: You know.
• 32:33
  Speaker 4: There are a few shows closed, but they were they
• 32:36
  Speaker 4: were not shows that were meant to be. And there's
• 32:39
  Speaker 4: a lot of stuff that's booming and a lot of
• 32:41
  Speaker 4: stuff coming this fall that's going to be very hot.
• 32:44

  Speaker 2: in the next hour. Now, I'm here every day ten
• 34:16
  Speaker 2: to noon, right here on seven to ten.
• 34:19
  Speaker 1: Wr back to Mark simone onor this is.
• 34:24
  Speaker 2: Just starting to come out. You remember the law their against
• 34:27
  Speaker 2: President Trump while he was out of office, done by
• 34:31
  Speaker 2: that dirty, dirty probably the dirtiest Attorney General we ever had,
• 34:35
  Speaker 2: Merrick Garland. Now, it was basically it started with three cases.
• 34:41
  Speaker 2: It was the Alvin Bragg case in New York, which
• 34:44
  Speaker 2: was the most sleazy, oddball case ever brought by anybody anywhere.
• 34:51
  Speaker 2: They were just trying to get Trump. Even Alan Dershwitz,
• 34:55
  Speaker 2: the great legal scholar, said he's read the case one
• 34:57
  Speaker 2: hundred times, still can't figure out what the charge is.
• 35:00
  Speaker 2: Then there was the Letitia James case where she went
• 35:04
  Speaker 2: after him for he got a loan from Bank of
• 35:08
  Speaker 2: America and she claimed he defrauded them. And it's a
• 35:14
  Speaker 2: crime that actually would be impossible to commit because when
• 35:19
  Speaker 2: you borrow eight hundred million from a major bank, even
• 35:22
  Speaker 2: when you borrow eight thousand, But when you borrow eight
• 35:24
  Speaker 2: hundred million, they don't look at your numbers. You could
• 35:27
  Speaker 2: tell them this is my value of my properties. They
• 35:31
  Speaker 2: don't even look at it. They do, they send their
• 35:32
  Speaker 2: own appraisers. They never even look at your numbers. It
• 35:35
  Speaker 2: says right in the thing, we're not going to look
• 35:37
  Speaker 2: at your numbers. And President Trump in his numbers said,
• 35:40
  Speaker 2: don't go by these numbers. Do your own evaluation. You
• 35:42
  Speaker 2: couldn't even commit the crime if you tried. That was
• 35:45
  Speaker 2: the Letitia James case. And then uh, you had back on.
• 35:50
  Speaker 2: And then he had Georgia. Remember that Fanny Willis, Fannie Willis,
• 35:54
  Speaker 2: whatever her name was. And it turns out that in
• 35:59
  Speaker 2: all of these case, in the case of the Georgia prosecutor,
• 36:02
  Speaker 2: and Fannie Willis that case, and the guy she had
• 36:04
  Speaker 2: with her, they were meeting with the White House. I mean,
• 36:08
  Speaker 2: this is a local prosecutor, a local case in Georgia,
• 36:11
  Speaker 2: but they're flying to the White House. Then the guy
• 36:14
  Speaker 2: recorded that they had eight hour meetings, two of them
• 36:17
  Speaker 2: eight hour meetings in the White House. Well, obviously they're
• 36:21
  Speaker 2: coordinating the cases with the White House. Obviously, if you
• 36:25
  Speaker 2: have an eight hour meeting in the White House, you
• 36:26
  Speaker 2: weren't there to say hello and meet and greet and
• 36:29
  Speaker 2: take a picture. Eight hour meetings. They were working on
• 36:33
  Speaker 2: the case and Letsia James was talking with the White House. Now,
• 36:38
  Speaker 2: in the case of Alvin Bragg, Merrick Garland's top guy,
• 36:43
  Speaker 2: who number two guy left the Justice Department and came
• 36:48
  Speaker 2: to work in Alvin Bragg's office to run the case.
• 36:53
  Speaker 2: Now that's awfully suspicious. You got the biggest job under
• 36:57
  Speaker 2: the Attorney General in the Department of Justice in Washington.
• 37:01
  Speaker 2: You leave that to go work in a local prosecutor's
• 37:04
  Speaker 2: office somewhere. It doesn't make any sense. It doesn't pass
• 37:08
  Speaker 2: the smell test or the laugh test. So this guy
• 37:12
  Speaker 2: was Michael Colangelo, and he left. He was number two
• 37:16
  Speaker 2: guy to Merrick Garland, the very dirty Attorney General. Colangelo
• 37:21
  Speaker 2: left and joined Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg's office, which
• 37:26
  Speaker 2: nobody in the right mind would do. I mean, even
• 37:30
  Speaker 2: if you thought highly of the Manhattan DA's office, it's
• 37:33
  Speaker 2: brand new Alvin Bragg, who nobody took seriously and nobody
• 37:36
  Speaker 2: would want to work for. So he came there to
• 37:39
  Speaker 2: the office to run this case, and we know that
• 37:42
  Speaker 2: Colangelo was He was even in court standing up arguing
• 37:45
  Speaker 2: the case. So he was came from Washington, came to
• 37:49
  Speaker 2: the Manhattan DIA's office to personally prosecute Donald Trump. Well,
• 37:53
  Speaker 2: now stuff is coming out about him. We're finding out
• 37:56
  Speaker 2: he was involved in all kinds of other federal cases
• 37:58
  Speaker 2: against President Trump. So this was basically he was like
• 38:02
  Speaker 2: a Jack Smith where he'd spent his career as a
• 38:04
  Speaker 2: hitman going after political enemies, people he hated, So he
• 38:09
  Speaker 2: was after Trump all along. Stuff is starting to come out.
• 38:12
  Speaker 2: Hopefully the Justice Department, the real one now, not the
• 38:16
  Speaker 2: dirty Merrick Garland Justice Department. Hopefully the real Justice Department
• 38:21
  Speaker 2: starts investigating Michael Colangelo, take a good hard look at
• 38:25
  Speaker 2: him and lay out everything that he did, because it's
• 38:29
  Speaker 2: pretty bad. Hey, the World Trade Center, it's twenty five
• 38:33
  Speaker 2: years later, twenty fifth anniversary coming up of nine to eleven,
• 38:37
  Speaker 2: and twenty five years later, the final piece of the
• 38:40
  Speaker 2: puzzle is coming back Building two, World Trade Center. That's
• 38:45
  Speaker 2: the one that's still missing. Coming back Building two at
• 38:49
  Speaker 2: the World Trade Center broke ground yesterday. This is going
• 38:53
  Speaker 2: to be a twelve hundred foot tower. That's a real
• 38:59
  Speaker 2: serious skuy and it's going to be American Express. American
• 39:06
  Speaker 2: in fact, they're going to own the whole building. It'll
• 39:09
  Speaker 2: be it's not gonna it's gonna take a while twenty
• 39:12
  Speaker 2: thirty one, that's five years to build it, but it
• 39:15
  Speaker 2: will be the American Express building. They'll own it, they'll
• 39:18
  Speaker 2: be the main tenant. Now, the good news is it
• 39:22
  Speaker 2: shows you a major company like American Express has faith
• 39:25
  Speaker 2: in New York and wants to put a massive skyscraper here.
• 39:29
  Speaker 2: And it's going to a huge, huge, huge headquarters right here. Remember,
• 39:34
  Speaker 2: right after nine to eleven, in the year that followed,
• 39:38
  Speaker 2: everybody said two things. They said, nobody will ever live
• 39:40
  Speaker 2: downtown there ever again, and nobody will ever be up
• 39:46
  Speaker 2: at the top of a sky glass skyscraper. Well, obviously
• 39:49
  Speaker 2: none of that was true.
• 39:50
  Speaker 4: Go down there.
• 39:51
  Speaker 2: It's as crowded as ever. And this building going up
• 39:54
  Speaker 2: is the final piece of the World Trade Center puzzle.
• 39:56
  Speaker 2: Coming back, Mayor Mom, Donnie. He was down there for
• 40:01
  Speaker 2: the groundbreaking.
• 40:02
  Speaker 10: For many months, rubble filled a site that had long
• 40:04
  Speaker 10: been defined by greatness, But over the months and years
• 40:08
  Speaker 10: that followed, greatness returned it returned in the first responders
• 40:12
  Speaker 10: who sacrificed so much on behalf of their fellow New Yorkers.
• 40:16
  Speaker 10: It returned and those who cleared the pile and the
• 40:18
  Speaker 10: new foundations. It returned in the first office workers who
• 40:22
  Speaker 10: came back to work, And it returns today as we
• 40:25
  Speaker 10: break ground on a new building that will rise one thousand,
• 40:28
  Speaker 10: two hundred and twenty six feet into the sky.
• 40:32
  Speaker 2: Yeah, this is not one thing he does well, these
• 40:34
  Speaker 2: little speeches. However, if you, let's say you were around
• 40:38
  Speaker 2: in two thousand and one and all of a sudden
• 40:39
  Speaker 2: you came back in a time machine, you came here,
• 40:42
  Speaker 2: saw this guy speaking, you'd say, who's this guy? You
• 40:44
  Speaker 2: would never think this kid is the mayor. I mean no,
• 40:48
  Speaker 2: in normal circumstances, he would be like on the staff
• 40:51
  Speaker 2: of the mayor. He'd be like a staff guy. He'd
• 40:53
  Speaker 2: be the advanced guy for the mayor, but currently the mayor.
• 40:56
  Speaker 2: But it's the one thing he does, Okay, it'd makes
• 40:57
  Speaker 2: those little speeches. So that's good news. Graham Plattner is
• 41:03
  Speaker 2: still he's gone. He suspended his campaign. That means you're out.
• 41:07
  Speaker 2: You got to officially tell the party take my name
• 41:11
  Speaker 2: off everything. You're leaving these democrats. They they still can't
• 41:16
  Speaker 2: explain themselves to people. It's so embarrassing. How the hell
• 41:20
  Speaker 2: did you back a Nazi rapist with a big Nazi
• 41:24
  Speaker 2: SS death camp tattoo right on his chest? You're back
• 41:27
  Speaker 2: the Nazi rapist? I mean, just look at the guy.
• 41:29
  Speaker 2: He looks like the killer in Cape Fear. He looks
• 41:31
  Speaker 2: like a total nut job. How did you back that guy?
• 41:34
  Speaker 2: They keep asking these people.
• 41:35
  Speaker 11: Graham told me point blank that there was nothing in
• 41:38
  Speaker 11: his past that I had to worry about. And you know,
• 41:42
  Speaker 11: he lied to me, and he lied to a autos.
• 41:46
  Speaker 2: He looks like a deranged lunatic. That wasn't enough for you. Uh,
• 41:50
  Speaker 2: And then I mean listen, he says, they can't explain themselves, So.
• 41:53
  Speaker 4: Why did you stay with him for so long?
• 41:56
  Speaker 2: Well?
• 41:58
  Speaker 11: The Nazi tattoo in the Reddit posts, I mean I
• 42:03
  Speaker 11: didn't know. I mean, I haven't never been on Reddit,
• 42:06
  Speaker 11: but you know, when people talked about those things, and
• 42:09
  Speaker 11: then he turned around and said, you know that these
• 42:11
  Speaker 11: were times whenever they were dark for him, and you
• 42:14
  Speaker 11: know he'd grown and all this stuff. I mean, they
• 42:17
  Speaker 11: were you know, a different time period for him, and
• 42:20
  Speaker 11: I understood, you know, that people can change.
• 42:24
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean they kind of a long haired hippie
• 42:26
  Speaker 2: and then they cut their hair, put on a suit
• 42:28
  Speaker 2: and you can change like that. But massive Nazi tattoo
• 42:31
  Speaker 2: in the middle of your chest. You go to any
• 42:34
  Speaker 2: job interview with a massive Nazi tattoo right in the
• 42:37
  Speaker 2: middle of your chest. I don't think you're getting a job,
• 42:40
  Speaker 2: except if it's Democrats. If it's Democrats, they'll take you. Hey,
• 42:44
  Speaker 2: this legionnaire's disease. I talked to a couple of people. Oh,
• 42:49
  Speaker 2: I was afraid to come to New York. They're in
• 42:50
  Speaker 2: the suburbs. Well, what do you whoa that legionnaire's disease? Well,
• 42:53
  Speaker 2: first of all, it's only a couple of neighborhoods on
• 42:56
  Speaker 2: the Upper east Side. It's not midtown Manhattan, it's not
• 42:59
  Speaker 2: down town. It's just in a couple of neighborhoods in
• 43:03
  Speaker 2: Manhattan Upper east Side. It's in the water tanks above
• 43:08
  Speaker 2: the building. You know, when they think that it's in
• 43:11
  Speaker 2: one of these water tanks, then they clean it and
• 43:13
  Speaker 2: the city council speaker Julie Menin now yelling and screaming,
• 43:16
  Speaker 2: you got to do it to every building on the
• 43:18
  Speaker 2: Upper eas side's got to do their water tank. It
• 43:20
  Speaker 2: affects the elderly. This is the city council speaker Julie
• 43:23
  Speaker 2: Menin very.
• 43:24
  Speaker 12: Elderly population on the East Side, many seniors who will
• 43:27
  Speaker 12: be more susceptible and vulnerable to legionnaires. Legionaires is potentially
• 43:31
  Speaker 12: fatal in ten percent of all cases. So every day
• 43:34
  Speaker 12: that goes by that the Health Department is not ordering
• 43:37
  Speaker 12: the disinfecting of these buildings is another day where more
• 43:41
  Speaker 12: and more residents of the East Side can become sick
• 43:44
  Speaker 12: and potentially die.
• 43:45
  Speaker 2: Yeah, she's pretty good. She's saying all the buildings on
• 43:47
  Speaker 2: every side. Health Department has to order every building clean
• 43:50
  Speaker 2: out its water tank, and they should do that right away.
• 43:53
  Speaker 12: Every single day that they wait to mandate that these
• 43:57
  Speaker 12: towers be disinfected is another day that more and more
• 44:01
  Speaker 12: people are contracting this.
• 44:03
  Speaker 2: Now, if you get rid of Mom Donnie next time around,
• 44:07
  Speaker 2: who would be the mayor? I know Curtis wants to run.
• 44:10
  Speaker 2: I don't know who else would be running on the
• 44:11
  Speaker 2: Republican side, certainly not Cuomo, who has proven beyond any
• 44:16
  Speaker 2: shadow of doubt he is absolutely unelectable. But if you're
• 44:22
  Speaker 2: going to get stuck with a Democrat. Again, a lot
• 44:24
  Speaker 2: of people like this, Julie Mennon, kind of a common
• 44:27
  Speaker 2: sense a city council speaker. The city controller is a
• 44:30
  Speaker 2: guy named Mark Levine. He's the Controller of New York City.
• 44:35
  Speaker 2: We had a luncheon yesterday where he was the speaker.
• 44:38
  Speaker 2: He was quite impressive, I mean dazzling. Not only a
• 44:43
  Speaker 2: great speech, but nobody knows the city better than this guy.
• 44:46
  Speaker 2: He's been a lot of things. Started as a math
• 44:49
  Speaker 2: teacher in the Bronx, but he's been on the city
• 44:52
  Speaker 2: council for years. He was Manhattan Borough President. It's done
• 44:55
  Speaker 2: a lot of government work. But he really impressed the crowd.
• 44:58
  Speaker 2: It's a Democrat, but common sense, reasonable democrat. So keep
• 45:04
  Speaker 2: an eye on him, Mark Levine. He would be a
• 45:06
  Speaker 2: good mayoral candidate for the Democrats. Mark Levine, great talker, smart, charming,
• 45:14
  Speaker 2: all that stuff. I don't know how you do this,
• 45:18
  Speaker 2: but you know, when Mom Donnie's term is up, you
• 45:20
  Speaker 2: want to get rid of them. But it's tough for
• 45:22
  Speaker 2: the Democrats to get him off the ballot. You know,
• 45:25
  Speaker 2: he's the automatic front runner to run again. But keep
• 45:28
  Speaker 2: an eye on that, Mark Levine or Julie Mennon Now
• 45:33
  Speaker 2: in instagram world, the most important thing if you're a restaurant,
• 45:40
  Speaker 2: if you're a bakery, if you're something like that, is
• 45:44
  Speaker 2: to go viral. The latest viral thing for the last
• 45:48
  Speaker 2: month or two was dot cake. It's just basically a
• 45:51
  Speaker 2: cake and a cup with the sprinkles all over it dots,
• 45:53
  Speaker 2: but it became the hottest thing in the world on Instagram.
• 45:57
  Speaker 2: The only place you could get it in Manhattan was
• 45:59
  Speaker 2: the Butterfield Market, very very good market Butterfields, and people
• 46:03
  Speaker 2: would wait in line four hours. They only had it
• 46:07
  Speaker 2: Sunday and Thursday. So for four hours you wait in
• 46:10
  Speaker 2: line for this dot cake. It was an incredible phenomenon.
• 46:15
  Speaker 2: I hate to break it, Deef. You go to stut Leonards,
• 46:17
  Speaker 2: this one in Norwalk. Any stut Leonards. They got four
• 46:20
  Speaker 2: thousand dot cakes. You can just walk in and take
• 46:22
  Speaker 2: a handful of. It's not that good anyway. So everybody's
• 46:26
  Speaker 2: trying to go viral. Now here's somebody doing it. I
• 46:29
  Speaker 2: forget where this is. It's out in Long Island. Is
• 46:31
  Speaker 2: it the Hampton's or Queen's. I think it's Queen's. I
• 46:34
  Speaker 2: think so they have the lobster Bloody Mary. It's a
• 46:40
  Speaker 2: bloody Mary, I don't know. It's got all kinds of
• 46:42
  Speaker 2: stuff in it. It's got a big lobster sticking out
• 46:44
  Speaker 2: of it. It's one hundred and fifty bucks or something,
• 46:46
  Speaker 2: but it's gone viral. People are lining up. They can
• 46:49
  Speaker 2: only make a certain amount of this's the owner of
• 46:51
  Speaker 2: the place.
• 46:51
  Speaker 13: It took off like crazy. We sell anywhere from twenty
• 46:54
  Speaker 13: to twenty five a week. It's one hundred and twenty
• 46:56
  Speaker 13: five dollars. It serves four to six.
• 47:00
  Speaker 2: Okay, now you say, well, that's not such a great
• 47:04
  Speaker 2: business sell in twenty a week, but it gets everybody
• 47:07
  Speaker 2: in there. Same thing with the Butterfields with the dot Cake,
• 47:12
  Speaker 2: which Butterfields, by the way, it's got a great bakery.
• 47:14
  Speaker 2: If you go in there, they sell five thousand things
• 47:16
  Speaker 2: that are better than the dot cake. So same thing
• 47:18
  Speaker 2: with this place. It'll get people in there.
• 47:20
  Speaker 13: First we start with the last we're going to offen
• 47:23
  Speaker 13: it up and you have to kind of support it.
• 47:26
  Speaker 13: Usually it sits perfectly right there. Then we're going to
• 47:29
  Speaker 13: take the sealery two one eat side. There are a
• 47:32
  Speaker 13: total of six shrimp, three on each side. Now we
• 47:36
  Speaker 13: go with the bacon. Then we have the jalapeno who
• 47:39
  Speaker 13: goes right by his mouth. Then we do the olive.
• 47:42
  Speaker 2: You get eight olives total.
• 47:44
  Speaker 13: He gets to hold his own lemons.
• 47:46
  Speaker 2: Okay, let's be honest. It sounds disgusting. I mean if
• 47:50
  Speaker 2: I was eating dinner. If I had a lobster and
• 47:52
  Speaker 2: shrimp on my plate and you were having a bloody Mary,
• 47:55
  Speaker 2: and I picked up my lobster and threw it in
• 47:57
  Speaker 2: your drink, in your bloody Marry, and drop my shrim
• 48:00
  Speaker 2: punked them in your drink, you'd say, what the hell
• 48:02
  Speaker 2: are you doing? But now it's viral and you'll pay
• 48:06
  Speaker 2: one hundred twenty dollars to have this, So it is
• 48:10
  Speaker 2: pretty stupid. Now you got every bakery, every restaurant, every
• 48:13
  Speaker 2: cafe running around trying to figure out how to go
• 48:16
  Speaker 2: viral with something. Now in the Hamptons they opened a
• 48:19
  Speaker 2: little diner. It's tiny, like an old fashioned railroad car.
• 48:23
  Speaker 2: A little tiny diner. I think it's Southampton. It's called Babes.
• 48:27
  Speaker 2: It only has eight stools. That's it. It went viral.
• 48:32
  Speaker 2: Now you gotta wait in line seven hours to go
• 48:34
  Speaker 2: to Babes. What do they have? It's just regularly. You
• 48:37
  Speaker 2: can get the same thing at any diner. They got pancakes.
• 48:39
  Speaker 2: They got eggs, but it's viral.
• 48:42
  Speaker 8: See.
• 48:42
  Speaker 2: Part of the secret of viral is you gotta wait.
• 48:44
  Speaker 2: The line is the key. There's a line at to
• 48:47
  Speaker 2: get those dot cakes. You gotta wait four hours in line.
• 48:51
  Speaker 2: And normally if there was a line, normally you went
• 48:54
  Speaker 2: anywhere and you saw a line two blocks long, you'd say, oh,
• 48:57
  Speaker 2: let's go somewhere else. This is a whole new phenomenon
• 49:01
  Speaker 2: with this gen z. When they see a line, they
• 49:03
  Speaker 2: rush to it to get in it. It's not even
• 49:06
  Speaker 2: the food, it's the line, it's the experience. They just
• 49:10
  Speaker 2: love being in a line. They'd love to say they
• 49:12
  Speaker 2: waited four hours. And the other idea is when you
• 49:15
  Speaker 2: finally get the thing, even this lobster martini or bloody
• 49:19
  Speaker 2: and you taste good, doesn't matter. You've got something nobody
• 49:23
  Speaker 2: else can have. Even though you went to Babes and
• 49:26
  Speaker 2: it tastes like every other diner, you can put it
• 49:28
  Speaker 2: on your Instagram. You've got something nobody else can get.
• 49:31
  Speaker 2: So this is I don't know when this phenomenon will end,
• 49:34
  Speaker 2: but it's going to continue for a while. We'll take
• 49:37
  Speaker 2: some calls next eight hundred three to two one zero
• 49:41
  Speaker 2: seven ten is the number eight hundred three two one
• 49:45
  Speaker 2: zero seven ten.
• 49:46
  Speaker 1: If you're listening to Mark on the iHeartRadio app, save
• 49:49
  Speaker 1: time and tap the preset button.
• 49:51
  Speaker 2: Now.
• 49:52
  Speaker 1: Now back to the Mark Simone show on WOOR.
• 49:56
  Speaker 2: It's eight hundred three two one zero seven. Then is
• 50:00
  Speaker 2: the number eight hundred three two one zero seven ten.
• 50:03
  Speaker 2: Let's go to Caroline in Bayville. Caroline, how you doing?
• 50:09
  Speaker 13: Hi?
• 50:10
  Speaker 14: Mark, It's Caroline.
• 50:12
  Speaker 2: But that's okay, it says Caroline here, all right, Caroline.
• 50:16
  Speaker 14: Even be I know, yeah, I wanted to talk about
• 50:20
  Speaker 14: the social media with the lines. I was in Italy.
• 50:25
  Speaker 14: I was in Taromina, Sicily, and there was this line,
• 50:29
  Speaker 14: you know, and I'm like, what's going on because no
• 50:32
  Speaker 14: one else had the line anywhere, And I went They said,
• 50:35
  Speaker 14: it's TikTok.
• 50:35
  Speaker 7: It's you know.
• 50:36
  Speaker 4: Yeah.
• 50:37
  Speaker 14: I went on TikTok and I saw it was Granada.
• 50:39
  Speaker 14: It was that shade ice. Yeah, it's called bam Bar
• 50:44
  Speaker 14: was the name of the place. And so we were like,
• 50:47
  Speaker 14: we're not waiting on that line. But then one morning
• 50:49
  Speaker 14: there was no line, so we had it. It was delicious.
• 50:51
  Speaker 14: But then we went to another place and had it
• 50:53
  Speaker 14: was the same thing. It's just amazing.
• 50:56
  Speaker 7: If you can get on social media your business psychologically.
• 51:00
  Speaker 2: You know, the gen Z. If they see a line, oh,
• 51:02
  Speaker 2: this must be good. You know, right across the street
• 51:04
  Speaker 2: there's this little uh tie place Topaz. It looks like nothing.
• 51:09
  Speaker 2: You would never want to walk in there. It looks
• 51:11
  Speaker 2: like crap. But it's got a line all the way
• 51:14
  Speaker 2: up the you know, this must be great. It actually is.
• 51:17
  Speaker 2: It's a great place. But you see that line. Now,
• 51:19
  Speaker 2: these gen Z if they were walking by the Motor
• 51:22
  Speaker 2: Vehicle Department, looked in the window and saw that line,
• 51:24
  Speaker 2: they go, let's go, we gotta go this whatever this

• 52:49
  Speaker 2: how you doing?
• 52:51
  Speaker 7: Oho?
• 52:52
  Speaker 6: You started your program Mark talking about the drones and
• 52:55
  Speaker 6: rands and bringing to Cuba. Yeah, to probably attack American
• 52:59
  Speaker 6: American President Trump. But Mark, we never got answers about
• 53:04
  Speaker 6: the drones flying around New Jersey and New York. Remember
• 53:08
  Speaker 6: years back during Sleepy Joe Biden tamelo?
• 53:11
  Speaker 5: What was that also? Iran?
• 53:13
  Speaker 7: Oh?
• 53:13
  Speaker 6: Maybe communistic? No?
• 53:15
  Speaker 2: No, no, no, it was nothing, No, it was nothing
• 53:18
  Speaker 2: like that. I remember President Trump. I can't remember now,
• 53:20
  Speaker 2: but when he first got in office, he the first
• 53:22
  Speaker 2: thing you want to know is what the hell were
• 53:24
  Speaker 2: those drones? And apparently It was nothing serious and I
• 53:27
  Speaker 2: can't remember. You have to go back and look it up.
• 53:29
  Speaker 2: But it was nothing serious. But that was sleepy Joe.
• 53:31
  Speaker 2: But there was a Chinese spy balloon following following Flump
• 53:34
  Speaker 2: flying over the US, which he did nothing about. Let's
• 53:38
  Speaker 2: go to Paul Rossland, New York. You know that's actually
• 53:40
  Speaker 2: where the dot cake is from Rosny, New York.
• 53:44
  Speaker 9: Mark. Yes, good morning, It's Paul from Roslyn.
• 53:47
  Speaker 4: How are you good?
• 53:48
  Speaker 9: Good? Just a question the next time that you speak
• 53:50
  Speaker 9: to Vincent from Brooklyn, ask him please if he ever
• 53:54
  Speaker 9: ran into Michael Francis, who I'm sure he might have
• 53:58
  Speaker 9: crossed passed, was in the nineteen seventies.
• 54:00
  Speaker 2: That's the guy that does that podcast now, I.
• 54:03
  Speaker 9: Think so, And I think he was pretty well connected.
• 54:06
  Speaker 9: I once leased a car from him in nineteen seventy something,
• 54:09
  Speaker 9: a Lincoln Mark four.
• 54:11
  Speaker 2: You sound like you're up to something, you know, you're
• 54:12
  Speaker 2: always kind of whispering like, what are you up to there?
• 54:16
  Speaker 3: Who may?
• 54:17
  Speaker 2: Yeah, what are you leasing the car from him for?
• 54:20
  Speaker 9: Because I was looking for a Lincoln Mark four and
• 54:23
  Speaker 9: they ran an ad in the New York Times from
• 54:25
  Speaker 9: least car of America a.
• 54:26
  Speaker 2: Lincoln Mark four what are you Jimmy Hoffer right twenty.
• 54:32
  Speaker 9: And when I when I finally he finally he wanted
• 54:35
  Speaker 9: me to come. He wanted some to my where I work,
• 54:38
  Speaker 9: which he did. And then when I was talking to him,
• 54:40
  Speaker 9: he said, will do Where do you live? I said,
• 54:42
  Speaker 9: Jamaica Estates and Queen's He said, oh, great neighborhood. He said,
• 54:46
  Speaker 9: will deliver.
• 54:46
  Speaker 7: The car time you have?
• 54:47
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I heard, But if you want a Lisa car,
• 54:49
  Speaker 2: you go to a Lincoln dealer. They got plenty of
• 54:51
  Speaker 2: Lincolns there.
• 54:51
  Speaker 9: What do you I know? I know I was a
• 54:53
  Speaker 9: young guy and they had advertised an incredible price.
• 54:56
  Speaker 2: So I thought, something, why do you think that is
• 54:58
  Speaker 2: probably a bottom in the front or something.
• 55:00
  Speaker 9: You know what he said to me, this car used
• 55:02
  Speaker 9: to belong to Rocky Graziano and he shouldn't make the payments.
• 55:06
  Speaker 2: Well, there you go, there you go, and.
• 55:08
  Speaker 9: He said, but it's an excellent shape. You'll get the
• 55:10
  Speaker 9: full guarantee and we'll deliver it to your house within
• 55:13
  Speaker 9: two or three days.
• 55:14
  Speaker 2: Wow, you know, he would be This would be a
• 55:16
  Speaker 2: great story if this was nineteen seventy eight. But anybody
• 55:22
  Speaker 2: anymore but a link in mark four you could see
• 55:26
  Speaker 2: uncle Junior driving that around. Let's go to Jean in Riverdale. Jean,
• 55:30
  Speaker 2: how you doing?
• 55:32
  Speaker 15: Hey, Mark Tway a long time listener of yourself. I
• 55:37
  Speaker 15: just wanted to comment on what you said about Julie
• 55:40
  Speaker 15: Lennon and Marque Levine. Yes, Marque Levine is the controller
• 55:44
  Speaker 15: and the city council is going to vote themselves a
• 55:46
  Speaker 15: big pay race.
• 55:47
  Speaker 2: Well that's all. That's that's terrible, but it's all politicians.
• 55:51
  Speaker 2: Any politician will do that.
• 55:53
  Speaker 15: Yeah, but he should come out and say, hey, listen,
• 55:55
  Speaker 15: this is wrong. The City of New York Canta Ford
• 55:57
  Speaker 15: this with one hundred and twenty six billion dollar budget
• 56:01
  Speaker 15: that they want to know.
• 56:02
  Speaker 2: I understand. No, everybody agrees with you, but that's the
• 56:04
  Speaker 2: way they are. Those are Republicans, Democrats, politicians. They'll always
• 56:08
  Speaker 2: vote themselves are raise nothing.
• 56:09
  Speaker 3: You can do about it.
• 56:10
  Speaker 15: And well, so you know, I don't think Julie Mennon
• 56:13
  Speaker 15: would make a good maar because she's very she's very liberal.
• 56:17
  Speaker 2: Way, no, I understand, she's not very liberal. She's slightly liberal.
• 56:20
  Speaker 2: She's a more common sense I'd rather have a Republican
• 56:23
  Speaker 2: mayor Juliani Bloomberg something like that. But if you're gonna
• 56:26
  Speaker 2: be stuck with a Democrat. You're better better off with
• 56:29
  Speaker 2: a Julie Mennon or a Mark Levine than a mom Donnie.
• 56:32
  Speaker 2: That's all I was saying. Absolutely, all right, thanks for calling.
• 56:35
  Speaker 2: Oh when we come back. The perfect candidate, Bruce Blakeman.
• 56:40
  Speaker 2: He should be the next governor of New York. He's
• 56:41
  Speaker 2: the guy who could really start to save New York.
• 56:44
  Speaker 2: Bruce Blakeman should be the next governor of New York.

• 58:07
  Speaker 7: We've got to save our state. We've got to save
• 58:10
  Speaker 7: our country from people who have anti American values, and
• 58:14
  Speaker 7: believe me, as governor, we will put the state in
• 58:17
  Speaker 7: the right direction and take it out of its death spiral.
• 58:20
  Speaker 2: Hey, so the latest polling, I'm not talking about those
• 58:23
  Speaker 2: public polls. They're mostly junk, but for real polls. You
• 58:25
  Speaker 2: got one has you at six points, one has you
• 58:28
  Speaker 2: at eight points. So let's say it's seven points. That's
• 58:30
  Speaker 2: from being twenty points behind, and you're ahead of where
• 58:34
  Speaker 2: Lee Zelden was at this point, aren't you.
• 58:37
  Speaker 7: Well, we're about fourteen points ahead of where Lee was
• 58:41
  Speaker 7: four years ago. So we're going to win, provided that
• 58:45
  Speaker 7: we get people out to vote, provided that we have
• 58:48
  Speaker 7: enough campaign funds to buy social media, radio, TV, streaming,
• 58:52
  Speaker 7: direct mail. We have the perfect storm here in New York.
• 58:58
  Speaker 7: We've got a governor that completely inept where the most overtaxed,
• 59:03
  Speaker 7: overregulated state in America are electric bills is seventy percent
• 59:06
  Speaker 7: higher than the national average. I will end that. And
• 59:10
  Speaker 7: she is the most pro criminal governor. And now she's
• 59:13
  Speaker 7: completely aligned at the hit with Zorn Mundami. I now
• 59:18
  Speaker 7: call her comrade Kathy. The two of them are conspiring
• 59:21
  Speaker 7: to destroy the economy of the State of New York
• 59:25
  Speaker 7: and the City of New York. And I will stop them.
• 59:28
  Speaker 7: I will stop the lawlessness, and I will bring prosperity
• 59:32
  Speaker 7: and peace and economic development, better jobs, better benefits to
• 59:37
  Speaker 7: New York State.
• 59:38
  Speaker 2: Yeah. Hey, now, Bruce Play would explain, because Kathy Okle
• 59:41
  Speaker 2: always talks about affordability, explain how the electric bills are
• 59:45
  Speaker 2: so high as a result of her actions.
• 59:49
  Speaker 7: Yeah, so, Kathy Hockel has improved over forty five rate heights,
• 59:55
  Speaker 7: forty five in the last four and a half years,
• 1:00:00
  Speaker 7: So she's directly responsible for your rate hikes. And when
• 1:00:04
  Speaker 7: you look at your bill, take a look at your
• 1:00:07
  Speaker 7: electric till only thirty percent of your bill goes for energy.
• 1:00:10
  Speaker 7: The rest goes from more taxes. She taxes that she
• 1:00:14
  Speaker 7: has excessive delivery fees. That's a way to collect more
• 1:00:17
  Speaker 7: money without calling it a rate hike. And on top
• 1:00:20
  Speaker 7: of that, she has the green energy scam where she
• 1:00:23
  Speaker 7: puts solar farms upstate New York under snow and sixty
• 1:00:28
  Speaker 7: story wind farms out in the middle of the ocean,
• 1:00:32
  Speaker 7: the most expensive way of generating energy, and it is
• 1:00:37
  Speaker 7: producing very little energy. I will also open up the
• 1:00:41
  Speaker 7: Marcellus Reserve. It's one of the largest natural gas reserves
• 1:00:44
  Speaker 7: in the world. It's right here in New York State.
• 1:00:47
  Speaker 7: We're going to stop buying our gas from Pennsylvania. We're
• 1:00:50
  Speaker 7: going to create prosperity in New York and increase the
• 1:00:53
  Speaker 7: supply so we bring down the cost of electricity. I
• 1:00:57
  Speaker 7: can cut the electric bills in half. I will when
• 1:01:00
  Speaker 7: I'm governor, because that's the number one complaint I get
• 1:01:03
  Speaker 7: from people nowadays.
• 1:01:04
  Speaker 2: Yeah, hey, just explain that to people, because we're sitting
• 1:01:06
  Speaker 2: on top of all the natural gas in the world,
• 1:01:09
  Speaker 2: yet we buy it from Pennsylvania.
• 1:01:12
  Speaker 7: Yeah, it's Kathy Hochel scam. It's hypocritical. So she wants
• 1:01:18
  Speaker 7: to portray herself as a far left, woke progressive Democrat
• 1:01:23
  Speaker 7: who wants only green energy that will never happen in
• 1:01:27
  Speaker 7: the foreseeable future. We need fossil fuel, we need natural gas,
• 1:01:33
  Speaker 7: and we have one of the largest reserves right here
• 1:01:37
  Speaker 7: on the border of Pennsylvania. But in Pennsylvania they let
• 1:01:40
  Speaker 7: you extract the gas and they're driving brand new Cadillac Escalades.
• 1:01:44
  Speaker 7: Over there on the New York side, Kathy Hochel won't
• 1:01:48
  Speaker 7: let you. They're driving twenty five year old rusted pickup trucks.
• 1:01:51
  Speaker 7: We're losing the tax revenue, we're losing the supply. And
• 1:01:54
  Speaker 7: crazy enough, Kathy Hochel, this is how hypocritical is. She's
• 1:01:59
  Speaker 7: buying the natural gas from the same reserve, but from
• 1:02:02
  Speaker 7: the Pennsylvania side, so she can tell all her lefty
• 1:02:05
  Speaker 7: friends that she's green. But she's not green. It's a
• 1:02:09
  Speaker 7: big subterfuge. So I will open up that Marcella schale.
• 1:02:15
  Speaker 7: That supply will dramatically bring down electric bill costs. And
• 1:02:19
  Speaker 7: by the way, she wants to go all electric, she
• 1:02:21
  Speaker 7: wants to take your guest stove away from you. I mean,
• 1:02:26
  Speaker 7: this has gotten so ridiculous, it's completely bizarre. We need
• 1:02:31
  Speaker 7: to stop it. We need to get back to common sense.
• 1:02:34
  Speaker 7: And you know, Mark, one of the things that's really
• 1:02:36
  Speaker 7: encouraging to me. Every single day I have Democrats coming
• 1:02:41
  Speaker 7: up to me and saying, I've never voted I've never
• 1:02:44
  Speaker 7: voted Republican before. I'm a lifelong Democrat. I'm voting for you.
• 1:02:47
  Speaker 7: My party has gotten too weird, and you're a common
• 1:02:50
  Speaker 7: sense guy. You've done a good job in Nassau County,
• 1:02:53
  Speaker 7: so I'm going to put my trust in you. That
• 1:02:55
  Speaker 7: is very gratified.
• 1:02:56
  Speaker 2: Yeah, Hey, everybody go to Blakemanfromnewyork dot com donate or
• 1:03:00
  Speaker 2: help or Blakemanfromnewyork dot com. The budget in New York
• 1:03:04
  Speaker 2: is like two hundred and seventy five billion a year.
• 1:03:07
  Speaker 7: What should it be, Well, it's twice the size of
• 1:03:11
  Speaker 7: the state of Florida, and they've got four million more people.
• 1:03:15
  Speaker 7: So you know, I was down in Florida a couple
• 1:03:18
  Speaker 7: of times this year because I have family down there,
• 1:03:22
  Speaker 7: and their government seems to be running very, very well.
• 1:03:25
  Speaker 7: On half the money that New York spends, so you
• 1:03:28
  Speaker 7: know there's a tremendous amount of fraud, waste, and abuse.
• 1:03:31
  Speaker 7: And in Florida they don't spend eight and a half
• 1:03:34
  Speaker 7: billion dollars a taxpayer money like Kathy Hopel's doing on
• 1:03:38
  Speaker 7: illegal migrants. All you have to do is arrive in
• 1:03:41
  Speaker 7: New York State. You get free housing, free transportation, free food,
• 1:03:44
  Speaker 7: and a free cell phone. And you're not even a
• 1:03:46
  Speaker 7: New Yorker. That's our taxpayer dollars. That ends when I
• 1:03:50
  Speaker 7: become governor. I'm not going to let that happen. We're
• 1:03:53
  Speaker 7: going to invest in New York. We're going to cut taxes,
• 1:03:56
  Speaker 7: cut utility bills, and invest in good jobs and good
• 1:03:59
  Speaker 7: benefit fits for our young people so they don't leave here.
• 1:04:03
  Speaker 2: Hey, I know you do all the right stuff, but
• 1:04:06
  Speaker 2: don't you have a crazy left wing legislature. They'll try
• 1:04:09
  Speaker 2: to stop you. What do you do about that?
• 1:04:12
  Speaker 7: Well, you know what, First of all, we got to
• 1:04:14
  Speaker 7: elect more Republicans in the Senate, in the Assembly, and
• 1:04:16
  Speaker 7: in the House of Representatives, so you know this is
• 1:04:20
  Speaker 7: a team effort. We need a Republican Attorney General. Cerisa Comaretti,
• 1:04:25
  Speaker 7: Joe Hernandez, great guy for controller. We need a complete
• 1:04:30
  Speaker 7: change from top to bottom. But if there is a
• 1:04:32
  Speaker 7: Democrat majority in the Assembly and the Senate, which there
• 1:04:37
  Speaker 7: might be, that probably will be. All I can say
• 1:04:41
  Speaker 7: is it's a negotiation process. The governor has tremendous powers,
• 1:04:45
  Speaker 7: and I will negotiate and bargain with them. They'll get
• 1:04:49
  Speaker 7: some of the things they need, but I'll get what
• 1:04:51
  Speaker 7: I need to put this state out of its depth
• 1:04:53
  Speaker 7: spiral and put it on the right track. We've got
• 1:04:57
  Speaker 7: to change castlest bail, it's a revolving door of crime, menality.
• 1:05:01
  Speaker 7: We've got to end the sanctuary state status and stop
• 1:05:04
  Speaker 7: spending eight and a half billion dollars on illegal migrants.
• 1:05:08
  Speaker 7: And we've got to lower electric bills. Those are priorities. Yeah.
• 1:05:12
  Speaker 2: Hey, and if Mayor Mom Donnie starts doing some crazy stuff,
• 1:05:15
  Speaker 2: what can a governor actually do to stop that?
• 1:05:18
  Speaker 7: Well, I have tremendous power over the budget, and you know,
• 1:05:23
  Speaker 7: if he wants money to run his city, he's going
• 1:05:26
  Speaker 7: to have to make sure that he behaves himself and
• 1:05:29
  Speaker 7: doesn't ruin the economy of New York, doesn't overtax people,
• 1:05:34
  Speaker 7: and doesn't allow criminality and anti semitism to be running rampant.
• 1:05:39
  Speaker 7: The latest thing he's done is he put out a
• 1:05:43
  Speaker 7: map about the Darius ethnic neighborhoods in the City of
• 1:05:48
  Speaker 7: New York and left out both little Italyes, he's got
• 1:05:52
  Speaker 7: Little Palestine in some places, but he left out Little
• 1:05:55
  Speaker 7: Italy in Lower Manhattan and Little Italy in the Bronx
• 1:05:59
  Speaker 7: on Oursue. And I think that's intentional, you know, just
• 1:06:02
  Speaker 7: like when he gave the finger to Christopher Columbus.
• 1:06:06
  Speaker 2: Yeah, it's just crazy. Hey, we're running out of time.
• 1:06:09
  Speaker 2: We know how much time left. But just some people
• 1:06:11
  Speaker 2: think the governor can remove the mayor. It's not that simple,
• 1:06:14
  Speaker 2: is it.
• 1:06:16
  Speaker 7: Well, yeah, the governor can remove the mayor, but you
• 1:06:19
  Speaker 7: know he's a duly elected official, so that is a
• 1:06:22
  Speaker 7: drastic remedy. He would have to do something that was
• 1:06:25
  Speaker 7: very egregious or illegal. And look, I would do it
• 1:06:31
  Speaker 7: if he did something of that magnitude. But I'm hoping
• 1:06:35
  Speaker 7: that he modifies his behavior when I become governor, and
• 1:06:39
  Speaker 7: I will insist that he modifies his behavior because what
• 1:06:42
  Speaker 7: he's doing now is destroying the economy of New York City.
• 1:06:46
  Speaker 7: He's competing with local private businesses and places like the
• 1:06:50
  Speaker 7: Bronx with these stupid grocery stores he wants to open up.
• 1:06:54
  Speaker 7: And his regulations and rules with respect to housing have
• 1:06:59
  Speaker 7: created the house and shortage that we now have. So
• 1:07:02
  Speaker 7: we need him to modify his behavior. Me as governor,
• 1:07:05
  Speaker 7: I'll make sure that happens.
• 1:07:06
  Speaker 2: Well, that's great. Hey, everybody, I know you want Bruce
