- 0:00Speaker 1: Sid and Friends in the Morning.
- 0:03Speaker 2: Entertaining and informative.
- 0:05Speaker 3: On the Red Apple Podcast Network.
- 0:09Speaker 4: Congratulations especially to Sid Rosenberg on his induction to the
- 0:14Speaker 4: New York State Broadcasters Hall of Fame. I can't believe
- 0:18Speaker 4: he didn't make it years ago. Today, Sid forever joins
- 0:22Speaker 4: a roll call of some of the greatest legends in
- 0:25Speaker 4: the history of New York broadcasting and talk radio.
- 0:28Speaker 2: The best in the business.
- 0:29Speaker 5: And he's the best in the business.
- 0:31Speaker 4: Over many years, Sid has distinguished himself as one of
- 0:34Speaker 4: the most authentic and recognizable voices in American airwaves. And
- 0:39Speaker 4: he's built a smart, loyal, gigantic audience. And I happen
- 0:43Speaker 4: to be one of those people in the audience. And
- 0:46Speaker 4: I had for a long time, long before I became president.
- 0:50Speaker 6: Out of the growing anger back here in the U.S.
- 0:51Speaker 6: at Cornell, the public hearing furious students. And ABC News
- 0:55Speaker 6: now obtaining documents showing how a former Cornell University student
- 0:58Speaker 6: described the alleged gang rape by multiple frat members to
- 1:02Speaker 6: the school. Here's Aaron Katursky.
- 1:04Speaker 7: Documents obtained by ABC News show how a former Cornell
- 1:07Speaker 7: University student, now known as Jane Doe, described her traumatic
- 1:10Speaker 7: night in this frat house surrounded by multiple men. I
- 1:14Speaker 7: felt like bait. I felt like lions around me. It
- 1:17Speaker 7: just was a totally debilitating place to be in. Her
- 1:21Speaker 7: description of what she now alleges was a gang rape
- 1:23Speaker 7: was given to campus investigators, who also found someone at
- 1:26Speaker 7: that same fraternity house had overdosed on ketamine the night
- 1:30Speaker 7: before Jane Doe alleged she was pressured to snort the drug.
- 1:34Speaker 7: She said it left her feeling like, lights are on,
- 1:36Speaker 7: but nobody's home. Your brain is not functioning at its
- 1:39Speaker 7: proper level. Growing outrage about the case spilling into this
- 1:43Speaker 7: public hearing about sexual violence on campus.
- 1:45Speaker 8: We're absolutely ashamed of the events that happened on our campus.
- 1:49Speaker 9: And we don't stand for it whatsoever.
- 1:51Speaker 7: For some, this issue is deeply personal.
- 1:53Speaker 5: I was sexually assaulted almost two years ago as well.
- 1:56Speaker 7: Cornell's investigation into Jane Doe's case is confidential, but the
- 2:00Speaker 7: district attorney tells us he will subpoena transcripts from the
- 2:03Speaker 7: school as he reopens her case.
- 2:05Speaker 10: If there is more, we will uncover it, and we
- 2:08Speaker 10: will help Jane Doe to testify to that additional evidence
- 2:13Speaker 10: before the grand jury.
- 2:14Speaker 7: David, the district attorney told us he never saw Cornell's
- 2:17Speaker 7: internal report, including interviews with dozens of witnesses, but he
- 2:21Speaker 7: now plans to make all of it part of his
- 2:23Speaker 7: reopened investigation.
- 2:25Speaker 11: When we.
- 2:27Speaker 10: You assess all of the legal framework that you have.
- 2:30Speaker 10: It is the federal government that if they were to
- 2:33Speaker 10: join the international criminal court, they could enforce a warrant.
- 2:36Speaker 10: So just to the point.
- 2:37Speaker 13: Here, the ICC, right? But we're not a member of that.
- 2:40Speaker 10: We're not, but I believe that we should become a
- 2:43Speaker 10: member that we should enforce its warrants because I think
- 2:46Speaker 10: this gets back to the question of, you know, when
- 2:48Speaker 10: you're asking, can you hold greed to account? Can you
- 2:51Speaker 10: hold impunity to account? And the more people see someone
- 2:54Speaker 10: break a rule or a law, And it is there
- 2:58Speaker 10: is no accountability for that.
- 2:59Speaker 13: Or a morale or a thing of moral conscience.
- 3:02Speaker 11: Maybe I don't know.
- 3:03Speaker 10: It calls into question whether that has any worth anymore.
- 3:07Speaker 10: And we always speak about the laws, the international laws
- 3:12Speaker 10: of the world, the things that started to be created
- 3:14Speaker 10: after World War Two, the United Nations, the idea of
- 3:17Speaker 10: multilateralism and the lack of enforcement of it also calls
- 3:21Speaker 10: it into question. So that's what I believe, that the U.S.
- 3:24Speaker 10: government should join the ICC. It should enforce its warrants
- 3:27Speaker 10: for everyone that has been issued. But if you had
- 3:29Speaker 10: your say, we would have arrested the guy, you think?
- 3:32Speaker 10: If I had my say, the U.S. government would have
- 3:34Speaker 10: joined the ICC, honored every single warrant that they've issued.
- 3:38Speaker 14: Yeah.
- 3:39Speaker 13: Sorry to say it like that, but, yeah, I don't know.
- 3:42Speaker 13: It's just crazy to see that guy speaking on our country.
- 3:45Speaker 2: Good morning, Mayor.
- 3:46Speaker 5: How are you?
- 3:46Speaker 2: Good morning, Melissa. I'm doing well. How are you?
- 3:47Speaker 15: Fine, thank you. As you know, landlord groups have challenged
- 3:51Speaker 15: your rent freeze, your promised rent freeze, which takes effect.
- 3:54Speaker 15: Is there a scenario where if the city loses that case,
- 3:59Speaker 15: tenants in rent-stabilized units could be forced in the future
- 4:02Speaker 15: to pay even retroactive rent increases? And what steps is
- 4:06Speaker 15: your administration taking, if any, for that possibility?
- 4:09Speaker 8: And then I have a second question.
- 4:10Speaker 11: Okay.
- 4:13Speaker 10: So first, what I will say is that The Independent
- 4:16Speaker 10: Rent Guidelines Board rent freeze for one-year and two-year leases
- 4:19Speaker 10: goes into effect.
- 4:23Speaker 2: So if.
- 4:27Speaker 10: You are in a rent-stabilized apartment, whether you're here or
- 4:30Speaker 10: you're watching from home, any lease renewal starting today must
- 4:35Speaker 10: remain at the same rent that it was last year.
- 4:39Speaker 10: In some ways, Fat Joe once says, yesterday's price is
- 4:43Speaker 10: not today's price. This is one of the places where
- 4:45Speaker 10: it's not correct. Now, if you are wondering, does this
- 4:49Speaker 10: apply to me? You know, where do I stand in this?
- 4:52Speaker 10: I would recommend that you call 311 because they do
- 4:55Speaker 10: have a tenant helpline that can let you know whether
- 4:57Speaker 10: your building is covered by this, what your rights are
- 5:00Speaker 10: as a tenant. I know there are many rent-stabilized tenants
- 5:02Speaker 10: who don't actually know whether or not their status falls
- 5:05Speaker 10: into this. They should call that line. And then, you know,
- 5:08Speaker 10: I am confident in the Rent Guidelines Board's Their decision,
- 5:13Speaker 10: their independent decision and the the law department's continued defense
- 5:19Speaker 10: of what they have done and the fact that they
- 5:20Speaker 10: made that decision on the basis of all the information
- 5:23Speaker 10: that they had in front of them.
- 5:24Speaker 15: No contingency planning at this point, at least not yet.
- 5:27Speaker 10: We are confident in this, and what I will also
- 5:30Speaker 10: say is that it is ironic to have seen reporting
- 5:32Speaker 10: that the former first deputy mayor who is leading the
- 5:35Speaker 10: lawsuit against the rent freeze allegedly sought to influence members
- 5:41Speaker 10: of the Rent Guidelines Board in past years.
- 5:43Speaker 16: And with just over a month to go until Election Day, politicians,
- 5:47Speaker 16: including the president and vice president, are fanning out across
- 5:51Speaker 16: the country, kicking off the final push ahead of the midterms.
- 5:55Speaker 16: Then Asensio Bonsu has more details from the White House.
- 5:58Speaker 8: President Trump headed out to Texas and Oklahoma to campaign
- 6:01Speaker 8: for fellow Republicans. Texas features a very tight Senate race
- 6:07Speaker 8: where Democratic nominee James Tallarico is running even or ahead
- 6:11Speaker 8: of Republican Ken Paxton in the polls. This is the
- 6:14Speaker 8: president's first trip back to Texas. since last month's midterm convention,
- 6:19Speaker 8: which Paxton said did more harm than good. In poll
- 6:36Speaker 8: after poll, voters consistently rank the economy as an important
- 6:40Speaker 8: factor in their vote. But President Trump blames the press
- 6:44Speaker 8: for Republicans struggling with the issue.
- 6:47Speaker 4: It was just announced we have the best economic numbers
- 6:50Speaker 4: of any president in the history of our country.
- 6:54Speaker 17: And yet.
- 6:55Speaker 4: People don't know about it because the press won't talk
- 6:57Speaker 4: about it.
- 6:57Speaker 8: Democrats see the economy as a winning issue.
- 7:00Speaker 13: The cost of gasoline is up. The cost of groceries
- 7:03Speaker 13: is up.
- 7:04Speaker 15: The cost of housing is up.
- 7:05Speaker 13: The cost of health care.
- 7:07Speaker 8: And it's all up because of the policies.
- 7:10Speaker 10: That Donald Trump has followed and that these Republicans in
- 7:14Speaker 10: the United States Senate have all just said, sure, fine
- 7:16Speaker 10: with me.
- 7:17Speaker 8: And they're spending a lot of money to try to
- 7:19Speaker 8: retake the House and Senate, including a new ad targeting
- 7:23Speaker 8: Ohio's GOP Senate candidate, tying him to another unpopular issue.
- 7:28Speaker 7: He's since taken hundreds of thousands of dollars from data
- 7:31Speaker 7: center developers.
- 7:32Speaker 8: Democrats need a net gain of four seats to take
- 7:35Speaker 8: control of the Senate.
- 7:36Speaker 9: Charles Barkley just went off on the Democrats.
- 7:39Speaker 18: Listen, I'm an independent who's voted Democratic most of the time.
- 7:43Speaker 18: You think that I'm going to get on TV and
- 7:46Speaker 18: kill my credibility saying every Democratic? Like some of these
- 7:50Speaker 18: people out here talking about no ICE, no prison. So
- 7:57Speaker 18: I use the words like socialism, like, no, I don't
- 7:59Speaker 18: believe in that. Wait, wait, no, no cops. I think
- 8:04Speaker 18: that's some of the stupid I've ever heard. Well, we
- 8:08Speaker 18: don't we what are we going to do without cops?
- 8:11Speaker 18: What are we going to do without prisons? Like, I've
- 8:14Speaker 18: seen so many politicians, I'm like, this is the stupidest
- 8:17Speaker 18: thing ever. And a lot of them, most of them, well,
- 8:20Speaker 18: let me tell you, all of them have been Democrats.
- 8:22Speaker 18: I think that's some of the stupidest shit I ever heard. Now,
- 8:25Speaker 18: ICE has to do a much better job. Much better job.
- 8:29Speaker 11: We need a.
- 8:32Speaker 18: Like, we can't just let people come across the border.
- 8:35Speaker 18: We can't do that. But ICE has to do a
- 8:37Speaker 18: better job. We need immigrants in this country. They're some
- 8:41Speaker 18: of the most amazing, hardworking people in the world. But
- 8:44Speaker 18: we need to get rid of the crooked immigrants. I
- 8:47Speaker 18: don't even understand. We need, you.
- 8:50Speaker 5: Need to have ID when you go vote.
- 8:53Speaker 18: Like, some of this stuff, like, wait, Democrats say, like, no,
- 8:57Speaker 18: when you go vote, you need ID.
- 8:59Speaker 9: Charles Barkley, who votes Democrat, just announced that abolishing ICE
- 9:03Speaker 9: is stupid. Abolishing prisons is stupid.
- 9:06Speaker 2: Is stupid.
- 9:07Speaker 9: And oh yeah, you should probably have an ID before
- 9:09Speaker 9: you go on picking the government. Now the whole country
- 9:12Speaker 9: is supposed to stop and applaud because a famous person
- 9:14Speaker 9: has finally come to the same conclusion that every functioning
- 9:18Speaker 9: adult came to around the age of 12. You need
- 9:21Speaker 9: a border, you need the police, you need a place
- 9:23Speaker 9: to put criminals, and yeah, you need to be able
- 9:25Speaker 9: to prove who you are before you pick the government.
- 9:28Speaker 9: This is not some big revelation. This is the bare
- 9:31Speaker 9: minimum requirement in order to not have a failed state.
- 9:35Speaker 19: You know, I can't get enough of Sid Rosenberg. You know,
- 9:39Speaker 19: I'm in Virginia and Florida. It's hard to hear him
- 9:42Speaker 19: in the morning. But everybody else hears him. Sid, how
- 9:45Speaker 19: are you, buddy?
- 9:47Speaker 20: How could I be bad? Mark Levin actually called me
- 9:50Speaker 20: tonight Mr.
- 9:52Speaker 11: Big.
- 9:53Speaker 1: That's huge, Mark.
- 9:55Speaker 2: Huge.
- 9:56Speaker 19: Well, you deserve it, my man.
- 9:58Speaker 2: By the way.
- 10:00Speaker 1: What is this Netflix thing you're doing? You know, I'm
- 10:02Speaker 1: not part of the culture, honest to God.
- 10:04Speaker 19: So I don't know what the hell's going on there.
- 10:06Speaker 19: You're doing something that's very interesting. Can you explain it?
- 10:10Speaker 17: It is.
- 10:10Speaker 20: You know, a couple of years ago, a local Brooklyn
- 10:13Speaker 20: guy who is an actor, a writer, a producer, a director.
- 10:17Speaker 21: He's friends with John Travolta. He started a series.
- 10:20Speaker 20: It's called Gravesend.
- 10:21Speaker 11: It's not on Netflix.
- 10:22Speaker 21: It's actually on Amazon Prime.
- 10:24Speaker 20: And Mark, it's basically the mid-1980s five-family mob story.
- 10:30Speaker 11: And it's a good piece.
- 10:31Speaker 20: The clothing, the music, all dates.
- 10:33Speaker 11: Back to 1985.
- 10:33Speaker 21: And he's got me playing.
- 10:36Speaker 20: You know, a mobster, a killer. And we started season
- 10:41Speaker 20: three last week. I actually shot scenes with the NBA
- 10:44Speaker 20: Hall of Famer Shaquille O'Neal, who can act, two nights ago.
- 10:48Speaker 20: I'm in scenes with people like Chance Palminteri.
- 10:51Speaker 11: It's a big deal.
- 10:53Speaker 20: So what's the name of the show? The name of
- 10:56Speaker 20: the show is Gravesend, which refers to a section in Brooklyn.
- 11:01Speaker 20: But here's what I wanted to tell your listeners, Mark.
- 11:04Speaker 20: I understand it. The big names, the big names, Meryl Streep,
- 11:07Speaker 20: all those big names, they're libs and they're the worst
- 11:11Speaker 20: kind of libs, the worst. But the idea that every
- 11:15Speaker 20: actor in Hollywood is a Democrat is wrong.
- 11:18Speaker 2: I've done three movies.
- 11:20Speaker 20: I'm on this show, Graves and Now, for the second
- 11:22Speaker 20: consecutive season. And there are a lot, not a couple,
- 11:26Speaker 20: a lot of Trump supporters that work with me in
- 11:30Speaker 20: these movies and on these TV shows every day. I
- 11:33Speaker 20: think it's exaggerated, the amount of Dems in Hollywood. The
- 11:36Speaker 20: big ones are... There's a lot of guys like you
- 11:39Speaker 20: and I who love Trump and love this country.
- 11:41Speaker 2: The great one himself, my dear, dear friend Mark Levin.
- 11:44Speaker 2: He and I are very, very close. You guys know that.
- 11:47Speaker 2: And he brought up, unprovoked, the series that I'm in,
- 11:52Speaker 2: Amazon Prime. Do you know, folks, that right now, Gravesend
- 11:57Speaker 2: on Amazon Prime is the number one bought and rented show, movie,
- 12:04Speaker 2: or TV show, I should say, by a mile. by
- 12:08Speaker 2: a mile, number one on Amazon Prime this morning, Gravesend. So,
- 12:14Speaker 2: you know, again, for me, it's a side job. I
- 12:18Speaker 2: don't think I'm very good at it, even though I
- 12:21Speaker 2: get messages every day. Every day they go, Sid, I
- 12:24Speaker 2: got to tell you, you're great in that role. Second
- 12:27Speaker 2: season now is Dave Busco, Mob Soldier, 1985 Brooklyn. I
- 12:33Speaker 2: get compliments all the time. I don't think I'm very good.
- 12:36Speaker 5: No, I think you're good.
- 12:37Speaker 2: You do? Yeah. For real?
- 12:39Speaker 22: Well, yeah, because I try to separate myself from the
- 12:43Speaker 22: guy I know.
- 12:44Speaker 11: Right.
- 12:45Speaker 2: Which is you. Well, that's very sweet of you. Thank you.
- 12:48Speaker 22: But I could see, like, How scary you could look.
- 12:52Speaker 2: Yeah, because you've been.
- 12:54Speaker 22: Scary in regular life with me some days.
- 12:57Speaker 2: You know, Lou, thank you for saying that. Because when
- 12:59Speaker 2: I go back and watch it, I can look scary
- 13:02Speaker 2: at times. And believable. Yeah. Well, thank you for that, Lou.
- 13:05Speaker 2: I love Lou so much. That's it for me today.
- 13:08Speaker 2: That's it. If I were you, I wouldn't say another
- 13:11Speaker 2: word the rest of the show. You are now in
- 13:13Speaker 2: the will, Louis. You're in the will.
- 13:15Speaker 22: That took me that long.
- 13:16Speaker 11: Yeah.
- 13:17Speaker 2: So I would go to this place, Rocco's, which is
- 13:20Speaker 2: a really good Italian restaurant, Vin and Vin, in our neighborhood,
- 13:24Speaker 2: 116th Street in Rockaway. And they have a stick there,
- 13:28Speaker 2: a deal like my buddy Steve Matarano has, down in
- 13:32Speaker 2: Fort Lauderdale, Florida. When you go to Matarano's in Fort Lauderdale, Stevie,
- 13:37Speaker 2: all of a sudden during dinner, You'll hear the sound
- 13:41Speaker 2: coming from the screens go up 20-fold. And it'll be
- 13:47Speaker 2: a scene from The Godfather or Goodfellas. And Matarano is
- 13:52Speaker 2: in Gravesend like I am. He's a Philadelphia guy, but
- 13:56Speaker 2: he's friends with Willie DeMille. So in his restaurant in
- 13:59Speaker 2: Fort Lauderdale, he constantly plays Gravesend, specifically the scene from
- 14:05Speaker 2: season two with me and Andrew Dice Clay together on
- 14:08Speaker 2: the tennis court.
- 14:09Speaker 22: The tennis court.
- 14:10Speaker 2: Right, which you've seen a million times, Lou, because when
- 14:12Speaker 2: we go to Rocco's, they do the same thing Matarano does.
- 14:16Speaker 2: They've got TVs. They raise the sound. Thank you, Vinnie.
- 14:20Speaker 2: So I've made Lou and MJ sit through this. They
- 14:23Speaker 2: loop it, Noam. They loop the scene. So we're having
- 14:26Speaker 2: a two-hour dinner. You see that one scene, the whole
- 14:29Speaker 2: restaurant does, about 100 times. It's so annoying.
- 14:33Speaker 22: You're talking about a really important thing, Noam, at the table. Well,
- 14:37Speaker 22: I don't understand how all those people got caught in this.
- 14:39Speaker 2: Wait a second.
- 14:40Speaker 20: Here I am.
- 14:42Speaker 2: Hold on a second. Did you see this part? Lewis
- 14:44Speaker 2: is so right. And what I do is, because I'm
- 14:47Speaker 2: so pathetic, is as soon as the scene comes on,
- 14:50Speaker 2: I will get up on the table. I'll say I
- 14:54Speaker 2: have to go to the bathroom, but really I just
- 14:56Speaker 2: want to walk through the restaurant.
- 14:58Speaker 1: And see if anybody recognizes you.
- 15:00Speaker 2: Oh, my God, that's you.
- 15:01Speaker 5: It's unbelievable to watch.
- 15:03Speaker 2: That's how pathetic I am.
- 15:04Speaker 11: That's awesome.
- 15:04Speaker 20: I'm pathetic.
- 15:05Speaker 2: I admit it. I'm pathetic.
- 15:06Speaker 1: It's ridiculous.
- 15:08Speaker 5: I just saw my friend over there.
- 15:09Speaker 11: He recognized me.
- 15:10Speaker 2: Yeah, because you walked three inches away from him. So
- 15:13Speaker 2: I got to tell you, most of the time they say, wow,
- 15:16Speaker 2: that's you. But there are times. When they say nothing
- 15:20Speaker 2: and I go back to the table so dejected, I
- 15:23Speaker 2: just want to go home. I love Lou and MJ
- 15:25Speaker 2: and Danielle, but what are you kidding me? So long
- 15:28Speaker 2: story short, we filmed season three. It came out last week.
- 15:33Speaker 2: The star of the show, William DeMayo, who also created
- 15:36Speaker 2: the show, writes it, produces it, directs it. He'll be
- 15:39Speaker 2: in studio about 945 this morning, the very end of
- 15:42Speaker 2: the show. Great guy. And he found me. So he
- 15:46Speaker 2: gave me this role a couple of years ago, and
- 15:48Speaker 2: the show is back, and it's doing great. So if
- 15:50Speaker 2: you're home this weekend, and you're looking for something to watch,
- 15:54Speaker 2: and it's not the Yankees and the Rays on Saturday,
- 15:56Speaker 2: or the Jets and Bears on Sunday, or the Giants
- 16:01Speaker 2: and Cardinals on Sunday, check out Gravesend, Season 3. I
- 16:05Speaker 2: think it'll cost you about $ 15.
- 16:06Speaker 11: That's it.
- 16:08Speaker 2: And I'm in, I believe, three of those six episodes.
- 16:13Speaker 2: I've seen one. I haven't seen the club scene yet
- 16:16Speaker 2: with Shaq. I was told that is episode six. We
- 16:22Speaker 2: released six episodes last week. And sometime around Thanksgiving, we're
- 16:27Speaker 2: going to release the last six. It's 12 episodes. It's
- 16:30Speaker 2: a good show. Long show. Check it out. Amazon Prime, Gravesend.
- 16:35Speaker 2: Willie DeMayo will join us later on today. So there
- 16:37Speaker 2: you heard the other thing. I need to.
- 16:39Speaker 1: Re-watch season one so I know exactly what's going on.
- 16:42Speaker 2: Do not watch season one. I'm so glad you brought
- 16:44Speaker 2: that up. Do not watch season one.
- 16:47Speaker 22: Somebody might not be in a lot of season one.
- 16:49Speaker 2: I'm gathering.
- 16:50Speaker 1: Yeah, that's probably the case.
- 16:51Speaker 11: I'm from this.
- 16:53Speaker 20: All right.
- 16:53Speaker 1: No walking around the restaurant during season one, I guess.
- 16:56Speaker 22: They're like, hey, wouldn't you like to be in this show?
- 16:58Speaker 22: That's what they're probably saying.
- 17:00Speaker 2: Two things about that. First of all, no disrespect to Willie,
- 17:03Speaker 2: but the show has gotten a lot better since season one.
- 17:06Speaker 2: But yes, to your point, I was still in Florida
- 17:09Speaker 2: during season one. That's how long this goes back. And
- 17:13Speaker 2: when I got back to New York in 2016 to
- 17:15Speaker 2: do the midday show with Bernard, God rest his soul,
- 17:18Speaker 2: that's when I was contacted about this show and the
- 17:22Speaker 2: possibility of being in season two. So I was not
- 17:26Speaker 2: even aware of this show. Season one, I was living
- 17:29Speaker 2: in West Polka. So it's two things. A, that's true.
- 17:33Speaker 2: I'm not in it. But to be honest, the show
- 17:35Speaker 2: has gotten a lot better. He's added so many big-time
- 17:39Speaker 2: recognizable actors and actresses. I mean, season three, he added Shaq.
- 17:44Speaker 2: He added Talia Shire, who, of course, played... Adrian, Rocky,
- 17:49Speaker 2: and a great role in Godfather as well. Every season,
- 17:53Speaker 2: from Chance Palminteri to now the late Vinnie Pastore to
- 17:57Speaker 2: Vinnie Curitola, who played Johnny Sax in The Sopranos, to
- 18:01Speaker 2: Armando Sante. I mean, the list goes on and on.
- 18:04Speaker 2: These are huge, very recognizable actors. Then you get our crew,
- 18:09Speaker 2: Peter Gordio, love him, Chris Marmando, and Sid. So this weekend, Noam,
- 18:14Speaker 2: your homework is... You have to watch the show. And
- 18:17Speaker 2: even if you hate it, which you might, you must
- 18:20Speaker 2: come in Monday and say it was great.
- 18:21Speaker 3: Well, of course.
- 18:22Speaker 11: You think I'm an idiot?
- 18:23Speaker 20: Oh.
- 18:25Speaker 1: I did plan to watch it this weekend, though.
- 18:27Speaker 11: That's a tough question.
- 18:28Speaker 1: Yeah, I knew you were going to jump on that.
- 18:30Speaker 2: What did you watch this weekend?
- 18:31Speaker 1: No, I was planning to watch.
- 18:32Speaker 2: It this weekend.
- 18:33Speaker 17: Oh, you were?
- 18:33Speaker 2: Okay, great. Thank you, Nomi. Thank you. All right, let's
- 18:35Speaker 2: get to the mayor. Top story, NewYorkPost.com. He's at it again.
- 18:41Speaker 2: So I don't know if you guys know who this
- 18:43Speaker 2: guy Theo Vaughn is. He's a moron, first of all.
- 18:46Speaker 2: He looks like he's high and sounds like he's high
- 18:49Speaker 2: all the time. He's not funny. He's not good looking.
- 18:53Speaker 2: He's stupid. And he now is another one who joined
- 18:57Speaker 2: the I Hate Israel Club. That's a real tough club
- 19:01Speaker 2: to get into these days, huh? I hate Israel. So
- 19:05Speaker 2: here's my guy Mamdani. He only picks the best shows,
- 19:09Speaker 2: only the best podcasts. Hassan Piker, Theo Vaughn. He picks
- 19:14Speaker 2: all the losers, all the anti-Semites. If you hate Israel,
- 19:20Speaker 2: if you hate Bibi, if you hate the Jews, I
- 19:23Speaker 2: want to come on. If you hate America, America, our country,
- 19:28Speaker 2: John Cougar Mellencamp, I want to come on. America deserved 9-11, right,
- 19:34Speaker 2: Mom Donnie? Crickets, not a word.
- 19:37Speaker 11: Nothing.
- 19:38Speaker 2: So I thought it was over. Bibi was here last week.
- 19:42Speaker 2: I was there for his speech. It was a great
- 19:45Speaker 2: speech at the U.N. and he left. And Mamdani was
- 19:49Speaker 2: not able to keep his promise that he was going
- 19:52Speaker 2: to have Bibi Netanyahu arrested because we know the ICC,
- 19:57Speaker 2: which as Michael Rappaport calls it, the International Clown Court,
- 20:01Speaker 2: kind of like the U.N., a bunch of anti-Semites and idiots,
- 20:04Speaker 2: and they've got no jurisdiction here in the United States.
- 20:07Speaker 2: I thought it was over. But then again, here we
- 20:10Speaker 2: go again. Another week. Another week. He does a show.
- 20:14Speaker 2: He brings it up. Maybe Theo brought it up. I
- 20:17Speaker 2: don't know. But he talked about arresting Bibi again. How
- 20:21Speaker 2: the United States should join the ICC. And they should
- 20:26Speaker 2: listen to what the ICC says and arrest Bibi. So
- 20:31Speaker 2: don't tell me that Mamdani... A lot of his wounds
- 20:35Speaker 2: aren't self-inflicted. And the fact, Bibi was here. He was gone.
- 20:40Speaker 2: You can't arrest him, idiot, dickface, terrorist, anti-Semite. You can't
- 20:45Speaker 2: arrest him. And yet, a couple of days later, he's
- 20:48Speaker 2: right back at it. You tell me, Noam, how obsessed,
- 20:52Speaker 2: how sick he had the opportunity yesterday to talk about
- 20:56Speaker 2: these heroic Israeli passengers. This amazing pilot who probably saved
- 21:01Speaker 2: anywhere from 200 to 500 people because people would have
- 21:04Speaker 2: died on the ground. Not a word from Mamdani. Nothing.
- 21:08Speaker 2: But arrest Beebe, here we go again. Can you believe it, Noam?
- 21:12Speaker 1: Yeah, I can believe it because he's obsessed.
- 21:16Speaker 2: But isn't it, after a while, crazy, sickening? I mean,
- 21:22Speaker 2: there's no doubt that his rhetoric... talking about Bibi and Israel,
- 21:28Speaker 2: lends to the problem we've got with Jewish people here
- 21:33Speaker 2: in even Brooklyn. And does he think that that stupid
- 21:36Speaker 2: video that he made a couple days ago, his anti-Semitism plan,
- 21:41Speaker 2: $ 8 million, wipes that out? I mean, I know he's
- 21:46Speaker 2: got the support of the Satmars. I ripped Moshe Indig
- 21:50Speaker 2: a new asshole yesterday. I did it again. this disgusting,
- 21:54Speaker 2: despicable rabbi in the Satmar community. You know what they did?
- 22:00Speaker 2: They invited, I guess, the Lubavitch or the Chabad, I
- 22:03Speaker 2: don't know. They invited Mamdani to the Sukkah, Sukkot just ended,
- 22:09Speaker 2: and they gave him a mezuzah. So for you folks
- 22:13Speaker 2: who are not Jewish, you're not sure what that is,
- 22:16Speaker 2: that's the scroll which is on the outside of the door.
- 22:19Speaker 2: You'll see Jewish people kiss it before they enter a room,
- 22:23Speaker 2: before they open a door. They gave Mamdani, Mamdani, who
- 22:28Speaker 2: has yet to demonize the Intifada, that Mamdani, the Mamdani
- 22:33Speaker 2: that does not think Israel should exist, the Mamdani that
- 22:37Speaker 2: has stood blocks away from the Israeli Day Parade and
- 22:41Speaker 2: talked about canceling it. The Mamdani whose wife, whose wife,
- 22:46Speaker 2: that repulsive skank, liked images of Jewish girls being raped
- 22:51Speaker 2: and babies being murdered. This is the same guy. And
- 22:55Speaker 2: these losers, they're Jews. They're losers. They give this guy
- 22:59Speaker 2: a mezuzah. So I go on Twitter and I go, oh,
- 23:03Speaker 2: that's nice. Did you give his wife one? And then
- 23:06Speaker 2: I described his wife. on Twitter, at SidRosenberg19, at SidRosenberg19,
- 23:13Speaker 2: the way I just described her, on this radio show.
- 23:16Speaker 2: I believe today she's in Portugal at some Islam meeting.
- 23:21Speaker 2: She was in Syria not that long ago. She doesn't
- 23:25Speaker 2: even act like she cares about the United States. She
- 23:28Speaker 2: fled this country on July 4th and went to another
- 23:32Speaker 2: America-Israel hating country. And you're going to give this guy
- 23:37Speaker 2: a mezuzah? So I killed them yesterday, Noam. I killed them.
- 23:42Speaker 2: But it doesn't help our cause when you've got Jews. Now,
- 23:46Speaker 2: they're fake Jews. They are fake Jews. There is some
- 23:49Speaker 2: type of unholy alliance. Something tells me money is involved.
- 23:53Speaker 2: I don't know that. That's just my gut. That's just
- 23:57Speaker 2: my gut, okay? These fake Jews are in bed with
- 24:01Speaker 2: this guy. So every time I yell and scream about Mamdani,
- 24:04Speaker 2: I've got the real Jew haters saying to me, well...
- 24:08Speaker 2: Even your own people like him. That's hard. Or, well,
- 24:12Speaker 2: even your orange buddy, President Trump, likes him. That's hard.
- 24:17Speaker 2: Every time I see a story about Mamdani, I get
- 24:21Speaker 2: aggravated with President Trump again. And I don't want to
- 24:24Speaker 2: do that because I love President Trump. He knows I
- 24:27Speaker 2: love him. But he also knows, I've said it to
- 24:30Speaker 2: him on this show more than once, I hate Mamdani.
- 24:33Speaker 2: I hate his guts. I hate his very existence. Every
- 24:38Speaker 2: breath he takes bothers me. That's right, I said it.
- 24:42Speaker 2: So when Trump says it, or the Satmar community says it,
- 24:46Speaker 2: it makes my job, and more importantly, forget about me,
- 24:49Speaker 2: it makes Bruce Blakeman's job, it makes Mike Lepetri's job,
- 24:56Speaker 2: it makes Janine Driscoll's job, Mike Lawler's job, even more difficult.
- 25:02Speaker 2: You understand that, Norm? I do. So what am I
- 25:05Speaker 2: going to do about this? I'm going to yell every
- 25:08Speaker 2: day about it.
- 25:08Speaker 23: You can point out, and I'm sure I'll get beaten
- 25:10Speaker 23: up for this, but you can point out that the
- 25:13Speaker 23: average Jew in New York City has zero connection or
- 25:16Speaker 23: understanding of the Satmar community.
- 25:18Speaker 1: It's kind of like saying, hey, I'm going to hang
- 25:22Speaker 1: out in the Amish community.
- 25:24Speaker 23: In other words, it's the only group that is embracing
- 25:26Speaker 23: him is this group. sort of extremist group of people
- 25:31Speaker 23: who need him and then you have the rest of
- 25:32Speaker 23: the community who's saying what are you doing right I
- 25:35Speaker 23: mean the vast majority of the rest of New York
- 25:37Speaker 23: Jewish community does not like this mayor but he figures
- 25:41Speaker 23: okay let me hide out in the Satmar and it
- 25:43Speaker 23: looks like the Jews like me but they don't and
- 25:45Speaker 23: so it'd be like him hanging out with the Amish
- 25:48Speaker 23: you know it's like nobody has any connection to them
- 25:50Speaker 23: right you know what I mean have you ever hung
- 25:53Speaker 23: out with somebody in the Satmar community they don't want
- 25:54Speaker 23: to hang out with you no no no are.
- 25:56Speaker 1: You crazy they hate me yeah They hate me. They
- 25:59Speaker 1: hate other Jews.
- 26:00Speaker 2: I know.
- 26:01Speaker 1: Because they don't think we're Jewish enough.
- 26:02Speaker 2: Correct.
- 26:02Speaker 11: No, no.
- 26:03Speaker 2: Or they think that we're phony Jews because we like Israel.
- 26:06Speaker 17: Right.
- 26:06Speaker 1: But I'm saying that's how sort of off the map
- 26:09Speaker 1: they are.
- 26:10Speaker 2: But think about how crazy they are. They hate me.
- 26:13Speaker 2: I'm a Jew. I fight for the Jews every day.
- 26:16Speaker 2: I've gone to Israel five times since they butchered our people.
- 26:20Speaker 2: They hate me, and that's fine because I hate them.
- 26:23Speaker 2: And they like this guy who's surrounded by people. who
- 26:26Speaker 2: would love to see the Jews extinct. How does that
- 26:30Speaker 2: make sense? Can you explain that to me?
- 26:33Speaker 23: Well, I think you said it initially, that you thought
- 26:36Speaker 23: that there was some sort of financial connection, something in
- 26:38Speaker 23: it for that community.
- 26:39Speaker 1: And my guess is that there probably is as well.
- 26:42Speaker 2: Of course. What else makes sense? He's a disgusting human being,
- 26:48Speaker 2: sitting there with Theo Bond, let's arrest Bibi, let's... He
- 26:51Speaker 2: doesn't care about Jews or Israel. We know this already. Now,
- 26:55Speaker 2: what is this other story? Because I know Cornell, that's
- 27:00Speaker 2: the Ivy League school we'll be talking about all day today.
- 27:02Speaker 2: But we do have an Ivy League school not far
- 27:04Speaker 2: from here, and that's Columbia. You remember Columbia? Mamdani's good buddy,
- 27:11Speaker 2: Mahmoud Khalil, who I now call the campus terrorist. He's
- 27:16Speaker 2: out there every day. He's looking for your sympathy. He's
- 27:20Speaker 2: the victim. What did I do wrong? I just wanted
- 27:23Speaker 2: to go out and make the case that I'm pro-Palestine. Oh, really?
- 27:28Speaker 2: Jewish students were so scared for those months, and I
- 27:32Speaker 2: went there. I went there when Eric Adams didn't, part
- 27:35Speaker 2: of the reason why I think Eric Adams was a phony.
- 27:38Speaker 2: They were so afraid, some of these Jewish students. They
- 27:40Speaker 2: peed their pants because they were nervous to leave their
- 27:44Speaker 2: rooms and go to the bathrooms in their dorms. But
- 27:47Speaker 2: Mahmoud Khalil, I was just sticking up for Palestine. You're
- 27:52Speaker 2: a lowlife, too. Just like your friend the mayor, you're
- 27:54Speaker 2: a lowlife, okay? So Colombia, I guess... has some walking area,
- 28:01Speaker 2: and Mamdani is upset. He's considering suing Columbia University. What
- 28:06Speaker 2: the hell is that all about?
- 28:07Speaker 23: Yeah, so the Columbia University, the campus was before the
- 28:11Speaker 23: October 7th attacks and the protests that took place on
- 28:14Speaker 23: the campus before.
- 28:16Speaker 1: It was an open campus. You could walk through.
- 28:18Speaker 23: There was a place called the College Walk, and where
- 28:20Speaker 23: people in the neighborhood could get places easier if you
- 28:23Speaker 23: walk through a campus as opposed to walking all the
- 28:25Speaker 23: way around the Morningside Heights campus. So that it's been
- 28:29Speaker 23: closed for much of the last three years because Columbia
- 28:32Speaker 23: University wanted.
- 28:33Speaker 1: To know who was coming in and out of the campus.
- 28:35Speaker 23: They didn't want they wanted to somehow bring down, stop
- 28:38Speaker 23: these protests. And so it's still closed, essentially, unless you're
- 28:43Speaker 23: a student or a staff member.
- 28:44Speaker 1: You have to show ID. I think there's places where
- 28:47Speaker 1: you need a fob to get in.
- 28:48Speaker 23: And with the mayor's office is saying, no, you have
- 28:51Speaker 23: to open this up because it's an inconvenience to the
- 28:53Speaker 23: neighbor's who use it to get crosstown.
- 28:56Speaker 1: To the subway or get crosstown easier.
- 28:59Speaker 23: And they're suggesting their suit, if they go through this lawsuit,
- 29:03Speaker 23: they'll say that Columbia, as a property owner, has the
- 29:07Speaker 23: legal right and the responsibility to give access to people
- 29:11Speaker 23: in the neighborhood to that college walk. Now, whether they
- 29:13Speaker 23: have legal standing there, I don't know. I'm not a lawyer,
- 29:16Speaker 23: but that's what their case is. They're saying they need
- 29:18Speaker 23: to reopen that campus.
- 29:19Speaker 2: Let's move to Cornell. In fact, as we speak, my
- 29:22Speaker 2: friend Melissa DeRosa is back on Fox talking about it.
- 29:24Speaker 2: Good morning, Missy. So you get this young lady. She
- 29:30Speaker 2: alleges she was gang raped by seven Cornell students. She
- 29:35Speaker 2: didn't tell the police right away. That means nothing to me.
- 29:37Speaker 2: Just seeing no means nothing. Some of these girls are
- 29:39Speaker 2: in shock.
- 29:41Speaker 11: They are.
- 29:42Speaker 2: And they're embarrassed, so they don't report it. Some are lying.
- 29:45Speaker 2: I get it. But I'm going to say this at
- 29:48Speaker 2: the very top of this discussion all day. I tend
- 29:53Speaker 2: to believe the woman.
- 29:55Speaker 14: I do.
- 29:56Speaker 2: That doesn't mean they don't lie. We saw what happened
- 29:59Speaker 2: at Duke, right, Noam? We saw what happened at Virginia.
- 30:04Speaker 2: So we've got precedence the last couple of years of
- 30:08Speaker 2: women that claim something happened, which really didn't. Some of
- 30:12Speaker 2: it did, not all of it. But I've got to
- 30:14Speaker 2: say this. Before we get into the grimy details and
- 30:18Speaker 2: Kathy Hochul appointing the AG as the special prosecutor, There's
- 30:25Speaker 2: not a female in the world, not one, who wants
- 30:30Speaker 2: to have sex with seven guys.
- 30:34Speaker 11: Seven.
- 30:34Speaker 2: You know, you tell me she's with a guy, maybe
- 30:37Speaker 2: even two. And there was drugs involved. There was drinking involved.
- 30:41Speaker 2: Things got a little hairy. You know, she wasn't exactly
- 30:45Speaker 2: sure what she was doing. You tell me. These guys
- 30:48Speaker 2: want to train. Seven guys have sex with this girl.
- 30:52Speaker 2: And I'm telling you, that these guys are a bunch
- 30:56Speaker 2: of degenerates. I'm sorry. The fourth guy, the fifth guy,
- 31:00Speaker 2: the sixth guy, she's whacked out on ketamine, whacked out
- 31:04Speaker 2: on alcohol. It turns out the night before, somebody OD'd
- 31:08Speaker 2: the same exact fraternity from ketamine. So look, we don't
- 31:12Speaker 2: know all the details yet. And again, we've seen cases
- 31:15Speaker 2: where the guys were not guilty, but seven guys have
- 31:20Speaker 2: sex with this girl. And she said the lights were on,
- 31:25Speaker 2: but nobody was home. So I got to hear more.
- 31:28Speaker 2: I do. And I want to put these boys in
- 31:31Speaker 2: prison before we do hear more. But on the surface,
- 31:35Speaker 2: the fact that you didn't call the police right away
- 31:37Speaker 2: and all that nonsense doesn't matter to me.
- 31:40Speaker 1: Well, and, you know, if you look at this case,
- 31:42Speaker 1: because not everybody knows what happened. So she was allegedly pressured.
- 31:45Speaker 23: Into consuming like 10 alcoholic beverages, snorting ketamine.
- 31:49Speaker 2: I said, what do you mean pressured? Did they actually
- 31:53Speaker 2: take her by the back of her hair? Don't know.
- 31:55Speaker 2: Stick her face on the table and make her snort
- 31:57Speaker 2: the drugs? I snorted lots of drugs over the years.
- 32:00Speaker 2: I had a cocaine problem. Everybody knows it. You can't
- 32:03Speaker 2: pressure somebody into snorting ketamine. So that part of the story,
- 32:08Speaker 2: I don't get. There's peer pressure. Come on, drink it,
- 32:11Speaker 2: drink it. And somebody will do it. But nobody put
- 32:13Speaker 2: a gun to this girl's head to drink all that
- 32:16Speaker 2: liquor and snort drugs.
- 32:17Speaker 23: But then they did know, they watched on as she drank,
- 32:22Speaker 23: they say, 10 beverages, snorted ketamine multiple times.
- 32:25Speaker 1: At this frat house. And it was after that, after
- 32:27Speaker 1: she was drugged and incapacitated, that this gang rape by
- 32:31Speaker 1: seven men took place over a period of several hours.
- 32:34Speaker 2: She said... She was so high. Again, the lights were on,
- 32:39Speaker 2: but no one was home.
- 32:41Speaker 23: Yeah, but it gets more outrageous, Sid, because then there
- 32:43Speaker 23: was this Snapchat group where the members of this frat
- 32:47Speaker 23: talked about what had happened that night.
- 32:49Speaker 1: So now they have this right on Snapchat.
- 32:51Speaker 23: There's this delayed medical response, as you mentioned, which happened
- 32:56Speaker 23: later on.
- 32:56Speaker 1: But Cornell did an.
- 32:57Speaker 23: Investigation, and after about 50 interviews or so, they shut
- 33:02Speaker 23: down This chapter of the frat where it took place,
- 33:05Speaker 23: they carried out some disciplinary action, including suspending, expelling several
- 33:11Speaker 23: members of that frat. But the criminal investigation that was
- 33:15Speaker 23: done by the Tompkins County District Attorney, Matthew Van Houten,
- 33:19Speaker 23: they declined to bring any charges against any of these members.
- 33:23Speaker 23: So Cornell had an investigation where they suspended and expelled people.
- 33:27Speaker 1: But they didn't find any.
- 33:28Speaker 23: But for whatever reason, the Tom King County's district attorney
- 33:31Speaker 23: decided declined to bring charges.
- 33:33Speaker 2: Well, I'll tell you what reason it is. They want
- 33:35Speaker 2: these stories to go away. These universities, Duke, Virginia, Cornell,
- 33:40Speaker 2: they don't like these stories. Doesn't sound good, right? So
- 33:44Speaker 2: they want these stories to go away. So we're going
- 33:47Speaker 2: to bring on today the most famous defense attorney in
- 33:50Speaker 2: the world, the most successful, my dear friend of 48 years,
- 33:53Speaker 2: Joseph Takapina. He's on every Friday. And we're going to
- 33:56Speaker 2: find out now just how liable Cornell is, not just
- 34:03Speaker 2: in a civil suit, but possibly some criminal suit. I
- 34:06Speaker 2: don't know how that works. But it seems to me
- 34:08Speaker 2: that Cornell did not do their due diligence in this case.
- 34:14Speaker 2: How about you?
- 34:15Speaker 23: Well, if they did hand out disciplinary action, suspended people,
- 34:18Speaker 23: and then I imagine they must have alerted to the
- 34:21Speaker 23: local authorities to what they knew. And then it was
- 34:23Speaker 23: up to the local authorities to then follow through on
- 34:26Speaker 23: the case. And for whatever reason, they declined to press charges.
- 34:28Speaker 2: Well, there you go. Maybe that's why Kathy Hochul now,
- 34:31Speaker 2: or maybe not. This is the truth. She wasn't happy
- 34:35Speaker 2: with the local authorities. That's why she appointed the Attorney
- 34:38Speaker 2: General Letitia James now as the special investigator. What do
- 34:44Speaker 2: you think about that? Jane's doing that.
- 34:46Speaker 1: Well, I think they needed to bring a fresh light
- 34:48Speaker 1: onto this case.
- 34:49Speaker 23: Now, you can argue whether she was the right person
- 34:51Speaker 23: to do that, but she is the attorney general. So
- 34:54Speaker 23: she'll come in and she'll take over this case. And
- 34:56Speaker 23: maybe it'll be a different outcome.
- 34:58Speaker 1: Don't know.
- 34:59Speaker 2: Either way, this is a horrible case. And these stories
- 35:02Speaker 2: make me very upset. I've got a daughter of my own, Ava.
- 35:06Speaker 2: And I'm always scared to death whether she's in college
- 35:08Speaker 2: in the U.K. or now at University of Pennsylvania. Just
- 35:11Speaker 2: because these are Ivy League schools and these are the, quote,
- 35:16Speaker 2: smartest kids, some of these kids are animals. Don't kid yourself,
- 35:21Speaker 2: you know. So I worry every day.
- 35:23Speaker 13: Of course animals.
- 35:24Speaker 1: I mean, people who are high on, I mean, how
- 35:27Speaker 1: high do you have to be?
- 35:28Speaker 2: Really?
- 35:29Speaker 23: How high do you have to be on alcohol or
- 35:31Speaker 23: drugs to be involved in? In a gang rape and
- 35:34Speaker 23: then deny, you know.
- 35:35Speaker 2: But it's not even how high because, listen, I went
- 35:38Speaker 2: to rehab twice. I'm not proud of this. I'm really not.
- 35:42Speaker 2: But I guess the good news is I made it.
- 35:46Speaker 2: Look where I am today. At the very top of
- 35:48Speaker 2: the food chain in my industry. The very top. Anybody
- 35:52Speaker 2: who says different is just jealous. But I had a
- 35:54Speaker 2: lot of issues. I went to rehab twice. There were
- 35:58Speaker 2: times I couldn't stop doing cocaine for five or six
- 36:01Speaker 2: days on end. You couldn't get higher than I was
- 36:05Speaker 2: drinking bottles of vodka for five straight days, starting at
- 36:10Speaker 2: six o'clock in the morning. I was as high as
- 36:12Speaker 2: you can get. But I got to be honest, at
- 36:15Speaker 2: no point during those horrible years did it come across
- 36:21Speaker 2: my mind. Hey, let me call my buddies and rape somebody.
- 36:26Speaker 2: So I don't care how high you are. That's not
- 36:28Speaker 2: the problem. It's what kind of loser are you? What
- 36:32Speaker 2: are you made of? I was as high as you
- 36:35Speaker 2: can get. I tried to kill myself twice. That's how
- 36:39Speaker 2: high I was. But it never occurred to me to
- 36:42Speaker 2: call five or six of my friends and rape some
- 36:45Speaker 2: girl who couldn't defend herself. So how high you are
- 36:49Speaker 2: is not the question. The question is, what are you
- 36:52Speaker 2: made of? What kind of lousy person are you? I
- 36:56Speaker 2: don't care if you get A's in school, everybody loves you.
- 36:59Speaker 2: When you're the fourth, the fifth, the sixth, the seventh
- 37:03Speaker 2: guy to walk up to this girl who's basically at
- 37:06Speaker 2: this point incapacitated and have sex with her, what kind
- 37:10Speaker 2: of low life are you? That's the bottom line. You
- 37:12Speaker 2: may not be criminally responsible here. But you need to
- 37:17Speaker 2: take a good long look in the mirror, folks. A
- 37:20Speaker 2: good level of parents, these kids. I'm not saying they're
- 37:23Speaker 2: guilty of anything criminal. I don't know yet. But I
- 37:25Speaker 2: will tell you this morally disgusting.
- 37:29Speaker 11: That's my point.
- 37:30Speaker 1: If she was incapacitated, like they say, then then it
- 37:33Speaker 1: is criminal.
- 37:34Speaker 23: And, you know, they use this Snapchat group to discuss
- 37:37Speaker 23: the assault as it was happening. and sending out invites
- 37:41Speaker 23: to others where they wrote free sexual encounter with this woman.
- 37:45Speaker 2: Free sex. And you know what their punishment was? This
- 37:48Speaker 2: is the best part of all. I do this bit now.
- 37:51Speaker 2: It's called What a Nightmare. Chris Libertini writes it. It's great.
- 37:55Speaker 2: And we do one every day on this show. And
- 37:58Speaker 2: if there's something out there that I find nightmarish, that's
- 38:02Speaker 2: my editorial for the day. Today's what a nightmare is
- 38:05Speaker 2: about this Cornell case. And part of it is the
- 38:09Speaker 2: punishment for some of these kids was ready for this.
- 38:13Speaker 2: Not going to jail, not being expelled from school, not
- 38:17Speaker 2: apologizing to this young lady. None of that. This is
- 38:21Speaker 2: really rough stuff. They had to write an essay.
- 38:25Speaker 1: You've got to be kidding me.
- 38:27Speaker 2: I swear to God on my late father, the punishment
- 38:31Speaker 2: from the school was the kids need to write an essay.
- 38:37Speaker 11: Come on.
- 38:37Speaker 1: And these are supposed to be the smartest of the smart, right?
- 38:39Speaker 1: This is an Ivy League school.
- 38:41Speaker 10: Right.
- 38:42Speaker 2: But again, that doesn't mean they're not degenerates, because they are.
- 38:45Speaker 2: Ivy League kids, they do the same stuff we do.
- 38:49Speaker 2: They do drugs. They get in trouble. They watch porn.
- 38:53Speaker 2: They do all that stuff. All of it. They're just
- 38:55Speaker 2: better students. That's all. They're not better people. And this case,
- 39:00Speaker 2: no matter how it goes down criminally, everybody looks awful.
- 39:05Speaker 2: Except for hopefully the girl. She's, you know, this is
- 39:08Speaker 2: right now on. I'm with her until I learn more.
- 39:11Speaker 23: And, and, Just to add to this craziness and the
- 39:13Speaker 23: awfulness of it, there are people now reporting her name
- 39:16Speaker 23: this morning because somehow.
- 39:17Speaker 2: I saw that. She's no longer Jane Doe.
- 39:19Speaker 23: Yeah, I mean, you know, she clearly didn't want to
- 39:22Speaker 23: be identified or she would have come forward on her own.
- 39:24Speaker 2: Of course not. And they never identified these young ladies. Never.
- 39:29Speaker 2: But the world has gone crazy. It's gone crazy. Innocent
- 39:34Speaker 2: people become genocidal. Rape victims become the problem. Criminals become
- 39:42Speaker 2: the innocent. The world has gone crazy. What else do
- 39:48Speaker 2: you have these final couple of minutes?
- 39:49Speaker 23: You know, you saw how Tennessee botched the execution of
- 39:54Speaker 23: this woman who was found guilty of murder.
- 39:57Speaker 1: Krista Pike.
- 39:58Speaker 23: So she was scheduled to be put to death on
- 40:00Speaker 23: Wednesday by lethal injection.
- 40:02Speaker 1: But after two.
- 40:03Speaker 23: Different tries of this doses of penobarbital, she was still awake.
- 40:10Speaker 1: She was snoring and speaking.
- 40:12Speaker 2: She was fine. She was good.
- 40:13Speaker 23: Well, she wasn't fine because now they say she's in
- 40:15Speaker 23: critical condition and our reports.
- 40:16Speaker 1: That She has brain damage from all that took place.
- 40:20Speaker 11: Oh, really?
- 40:20Speaker 1: But how do you botch that?
- 40:23Speaker 2: You know, President Trump talked about this yesterday. Here it is, Lewis.
- 40:26Speaker 2: President Trump, number four on Christine Pike's botched execution.
- 40:32Speaker 19: After the botched execution last night in Tennessee, are you
- 40:35Speaker 19: going to be pushing for any changes for capital punishment?
- 40:39Speaker 4: Well, that was an interesting situation, but you're going to
- 40:41Speaker 4: have to speak to Tennessee about it. Whether or not
- 40:45Speaker 4: they're going to go forward, you know what that was about.
- 40:47Speaker 4: That was an execution where the medication didn't exactly work.
- 40:53Speaker 4: He would answer it better than anybody.
- 40:54Speaker 20: How does that happen?
- 40:55Speaker 2: He's a great doctor. I mean, the woman is still
- 41:02Speaker 2: a criminal, though.
- 41:03Speaker 23: You don't have a ton of sympathy for her.
- 41:05Speaker 2: Calm down.
- 41:06Speaker 17: Right.
- 41:06Speaker 11: Exactly.
- 41:06Speaker 23: But you should get it right. And so now the
- 41:08Speaker 23: Tennessee governor, Bill Lee, is called off all.
- 41:11Speaker 2: There was one more execution. Bill Lee, the spaceman? The
- 41:14Speaker 2: same guy that picked for the Montreal Expos?
- 41:16Speaker 1: Exactly the same guy.
- 41:17Speaker 2: Unbelievable.
- 41:17Speaker 7: Yeah.
- 41:18Speaker 1: He, of course, going after them, he said, this is embarrassing.
- 41:22Speaker 2: Of course it's embarrassing.
- 41:23Speaker 1: You have one job to do and you couldn't get
- 41:24Speaker 1: it done.
- 41:25Speaker 14: Twice.
- 41:25Speaker 23: So now there is a stay of all executions. I
- 41:28Speaker 23: think there was one left for the end of the
- 41:29Speaker 23: year until they do an investigation.
- 41:31Speaker 2: No, no, no, they can't do that.
- 41:32Speaker 1: And by the way, he says, Put him in a chair.
- 41:34Speaker 1: This penalty is not going to go away.
- 41:35Speaker 23: He says he's a proponent of the death penalty. He
- 41:38Speaker 23: just wants to make sure when somebody goes in there
- 41:41Speaker 23: that they get it done. The idea is you go in,
- 41:44Speaker 23: you die.
- 41:45Speaker 21: Yeah, yeah.
- 41:46Speaker 2: What else you got quickly?
- 41:47Speaker 1: I think that's like the biggest series.
- 41:49Speaker 2: All right, good. We've got a lot of guests today.
- 41:50Speaker 2: So that was a great first hour. You're always amazing, Noam.
- 41:53Speaker 2: You know that.
- 41:54Speaker 11: You're always great.
- 41:55Speaker 2: Big, big guest list today. It's a Friday.
- 41:58Speaker 12: Sid and friends in the morning on the Red Apple
- 42:01Speaker 12: Podcast Network.
- 42:03Speaker 2: At Sid Rosenberg 19. That's my handle. Twitter. So, you know, Lou,
- 42:09Speaker 2: I just spent, what, 10 minutes talking about this Cornell
- 42:13Speaker 2: case and And I said, I need to learn more
- 42:16Speaker 2: before I come to any real conclusion. But there's no
- 42:22Speaker 2: argument in favor of seven guys having sex with one girl.
- 42:27Speaker 2: I'm sorry.
- 42:28Speaker 20: None.
- 42:29Speaker 11: Zero.
- 42:29Speaker 2: And then going on Snapchat and detailing all this stuff
- 42:33Speaker 2: like they just won the Super Bowl.
- 42:35Speaker 11: Okay.
- 42:36Speaker 2: I got a son. I have a daughter. So they're
- 42:38Speaker 2: killing me already on Twitter. Oh, Sid just buried all
- 42:42Speaker 2: these boys and you don't know the details. I just said,
- 42:45Speaker 2: I'm not sure these boys are criminally responsible. I need
- 42:51Speaker 2: to learn more. But on a moral level, if you've
- 42:55Speaker 2: got a daughter and I do, and you're a dad
- 42:58Speaker 2: out there, and I've got a son too, Gabriel, who
- 43:01Speaker 2: would never ever do anything like that. If you think
- 43:04Speaker 2: it's okay for guy number 2, 3, 4, 5, 6,
- 43:09Speaker 2: 7 to jump on a girl who was basically drugged
- 43:13Speaker 2: out and have sex with her, then it's no wonder
- 43:17Speaker 2: some of these kids do what they do. That is
- 43:20Speaker 2: morally disgusting. That's all I said. No, no. What is
- 43:25Speaker 2: so wrong with that?
- 43:26Speaker 1: Nothing's wrong with that.
- 43:27Speaker 2: Well, they're killing me on Twitter. I said already I
- 43:30Speaker 2: see these guys guilty. I don't know if they're guilty.
- 43:32Speaker 22: It's just the concept alone has to repulse you.
- 43:35Speaker 2: It should repulse you, you moron.
- 43:37Speaker 5: Regardless of the legalities.
- 43:39Speaker 4: Right.
- 43:39Speaker 2: Now, if you're the mother or the father of these boys,
- 43:42Speaker 2: I can understand why you'd be tweeting that nonsense. Right?
- 43:45Speaker 2: You know, that's your child. No, but these people haven't
- 43:47Speaker 2: seen the Snapchat conversation then. I mean, these kids were,
- 43:50Speaker 2: and then you had kids saying, hey, be cool, be cool, right?
- 43:53Speaker 1: We don't want to get caught.
- 43:54Speaker 2: We've got to be cool, guys. And again, I'm not
- 43:56Speaker 2: saying that that makes them guilty. I don't know whether
- 43:59Speaker 2: they're guilty or not yet, but they're guilty of reprehensible
- 44:03Speaker 2: behavior at the very least. So why would you go
- 44:06Speaker 2: on Twitter and attack me, you epping losers?
- 44:10Speaker 17: Why?
- 44:10Speaker 2: And now they accuse me W-A-B-C, Katsimatidis, your morning guy,
- 44:18Speaker 2: he's so hateful. I'm hateful because I can't stand a
- 44:23Speaker 2: Jewish man inviting an anti-Semite, a terrorist, into his sukkah?
- 44:30Speaker 2: If that makes me hateful, you are right. I am
- 44:33Speaker 2: filled with hate. I'm not. I'm the nicest guy you'll
- 44:37Speaker 2: ever meet. I work with three guys. who are legitimate
- 44:42Speaker 2: radio Hall of Famers. I mean that. Lou, Noam, and Justin.
- 44:46Speaker 2: They've worked on many shows with many personalities. There's an
- 44:50Speaker 2: honest question here, Noam. Have you ever worked with anybody easier,
- 44:55Speaker 2: more fun, nicer than me?
- 44:57Speaker 23: I say that all the time people ask me. You know,
- 44:59Speaker 23: I always want to tell them that you're just a total,
- 45:01Speaker 23: complete jerk.
- 45:02Speaker 11: Right.
- 45:02Speaker 2: I know you do. So badly.
- 45:04Speaker 1: In fact, sometimes I do just say they have a
- 45:06Speaker 1: story to tell their friends when they go back home.
- 45:07Speaker 20: Yeah.
- 45:08Speaker 2: I do the same thing. And then people see he's
- 45:10Speaker 2: taking me to Yankee games.
- 45:12Speaker 1: He's doing this.
- 45:13Speaker 5: He's taking me to Israel.
- 45:14Speaker 2: Putting money in his pocket.
- 45:16Speaker 11: Exactly.
- 45:16Speaker 23: I was just telling my brother who was in from Israel.
- 45:18Speaker 23: I said, easiest guy I've ever worked with.
- 45:20Speaker 1: Far and away.
- 45:21Speaker 2: Well, thank you for saying that. And Lou says it too.
- 45:22Speaker 1: And nicest too.
- 45:23Speaker 2: Thank you.
- 45:24Speaker 11: Thank you.
- 45:24Speaker 2: I'm not a hateful guy.
- 45:26Speaker 22: No, I say it to the other people who work here,
- 45:28Speaker 22: whoever worked with you. I said, all of the lunatics
- 45:31Speaker 22: who are here. Sid is the best person to ever
- 45:33Speaker 22: work with. He knows what he's doing, and he's nice
- 45:36Speaker 22: and great to everybody.
- 45:37Speaker 2: Thank you. I appreciate that. And you guys are great
- 45:38Speaker 2: to me, too. But I've always been that way. I've
- 45:41Speaker 2: taken producers and, you know, there's no two from Florida.
- 45:45Speaker 2: All those people ended up with great jobs. They talk
- 45:47Speaker 2: about NFL coaching trees, right, if you worked for Bill
- 45:51Speaker 2: Walsh or Bill Parcells. Almost all the folks that work
- 45:54Speaker 2: with me in Florida, who are no names. You guys
- 45:56Speaker 2: are already superstars. These guys were no names. Ended up
- 46:00Speaker 2: with big-time positions. And some of them didn't love me
- 46:03Speaker 2: every day. But every one of them, like Victor Bermudez,
- 46:06Speaker 2: this kid's got seven Emmy Awards. Seven. When I get
- 46:11Speaker 2: angry about stuff, it's because I care. That's why this
- 46:15Speaker 2: show is number one. There's a lot of folks on radio.
- 46:19Speaker 2: They feign outrage. They don't really care.
- 46:24Speaker 11: I care.
- 46:25Speaker 2: That doesn't make me hateful. That makes me spirited, makes
- 46:29Speaker 2: me passionate. I don't want to see my own people, Jews,
- 46:34Speaker 2: getting their asses kicked all over the world. I don't
- 46:36Speaker 2: want to see Christians getting getting their asses kicked, churches vandalized,
- 46:42Speaker 2: Christians murdered in Muslim countries and other countries all across
- 46:47Speaker 2: the world. It makes me sad. It doesn't make me angry.
- 46:51Speaker 2: I'm not an angry guy. Yes, I'm pissed because there's
- 46:54Speaker 2: a lot of assholes like you guys out there who
- 46:57Speaker 2: make excuses for everybody. Democrats and Republicans People on social media,
- 47:02Speaker 2: you're the lowest form of humanity. I got to do it.
- 47:06Speaker 2: I got no choice. It's part of my job. People
- 47:09Speaker 2: say all the time, well, stay off of it. I
- 47:11Speaker 2: can't do that. I'd love to, trust me. But part
- 47:14Speaker 2: of my job is to increase my exposure. And it's
- 47:19Speaker 2: clearly working. Clearly. Like Lou said, he knows what he's doing.
- 47:23Speaker 2: I know what I'm doing. But I hate every second
- 47:26Speaker 2: of it. Because the truth is, you're a bunch of losers.
- 47:30Speaker 2: In your parents' basement. You're 45 years old. You don't
- 47:33Speaker 2: have a job. You're sitting there watching 70s porn with
- 47:37Speaker 2: old Chinese food boxes screwed all around you. Screwed all
- 47:41Speaker 2: around you.
- 47:41Speaker 5: Sounds a little fun.
- 47:43Speaker 2: It's not horrible. I got to be honest. It's not terrible.
- 47:45Speaker 1: It's like a good Sunday afternoon right there.
- 47:48Speaker 2: Then I'll get up at 3 o'clock in the morning.
- 47:49Speaker 2: I can tell you that. But that's who you are.
- 47:51Speaker 2: And I got to read this stuff. So I just
- 47:54Speaker 2: block it, of course, right away. I used to fight
- 47:57Speaker 2: with some of you morons. Now I don't even know
- 47:59Speaker 2: if they're even real. You got all these bots out there.
- 48:01Speaker 2: They're not even real people. Curtis Sliwa bought a bunch
- 48:04Speaker 2: of bots. Mamdani bought a bunch of bots. Iran buys bots.
- 48:08Speaker 2: Russia buys bots. China buys bots. I don't get involved
- 48:12Speaker 2: in that nonsense. I've never bought a follower. I've got
- 48:16Speaker 2: friends who have a million followers. You walk down the street,
- 48:19Speaker 2: no one knows who they are. Nobody. In New York.
- 48:21Speaker 2: But they got a million followers. Because you can buy it.
- 48:25Speaker 2: I've only got 73,000 followers on Instagram. You know what?
- 48:29Speaker 2: Every one of them is real. I've only got 45,000
- 48:32Speaker 2: on Twitter. Every one of them is real. That's all
- 48:35Speaker 2: I care about. I don't need to make it look
- 48:37Speaker 2: like I'm bigger than I am. I'm already a monster superstar. Monster.
- 48:42Speaker 2: I know some of you hate to hear that.
- 48:44Speaker 14: Tough.
- 48:45Speaker 2: Tough. I'm so sick and tired, too, of this everybody
- 48:50Speaker 2: gets a trophy nonsense. Be good at what you do.
- 48:53Speaker 2: Be great at what you do. Be proud of that.
- 48:56Speaker 2: I have the numbers to back it up. You got
- 48:58Speaker 2: guys on this station telling everybody how great they are.
- 49:00Speaker 2: Some of them are. I got the numbers to back
- 49:02Speaker 2: it up. I can sit in a room with Elvis
- 49:05Speaker 2: Duran and Jim Kerr and Howard Stern. I can talk
- 49:08Speaker 2: to Imus' wife yesterday. I got the goddamn numbers to
- 49:12Speaker 2: back it up. You don't like it? Shove it up
- 49:16Speaker 2: your ass. Brian Comita's next.
- 49:20Speaker 12: Sid and Friends in the Morning on the Red Apple
- 49:24Speaker 12: Podcast Network.
- 49:26Speaker 2: The only time I get upset with Trump is when
- 49:28Speaker 2: he goes out of his way, out of his way
- 49:31Speaker 2: to compliment Mamdani. And he did it again a couple
- 49:35Speaker 2: days ago. He talked about his policies being crazy. But
- 49:39Speaker 2: for some reason, he's compelled to preface that with, I
- 49:44Speaker 2: like the guy. He's great. He's not great. He's a
- 49:47Speaker 2: piece of garbage. That's what the mayor is. So that's
- 49:50Speaker 2: the only time I get upset with President Trump. So
- 49:53Speaker 2: this morning, the top story on NewYorkPost.com has Mamdani at
- 49:59Speaker 2: it again with this loser, and I mean loser, Theo
- 50:02Speaker 2: Vaughn on some podcast saying the United States should join
- 50:07Speaker 2: the ICC and... Move forward with his idea of arresting
- 50:12Speaker 2: Bibi Netanyahu. He knows that'll never happen. Never, ever, ever.
- 50:18Speaker 2: But this jihad terrorist socialist Marxist won't stop. And then again,
- 50:24Speaker 2: I get like upset with Trump. It brings me back
- 50:26Speaker 2: to last Monday at Gracie Mansion. I know Brian Kilmeade
- 50:30Speaker 2: loves BB like I do. In fact, I saw BB
- 50:33Speaker 2: Netanyahu on Kilmeade's morning show on Fox News yesterday. I
- 50:37Speaker 2: know Kilmeade knows there's no genocide. He's not a war criminal.
- 50:43Speaker 2: He knows all that. But he's going to tell you that. So,
- 50:45Speaker 2: joining me now, my dear friend follows me each and
- 50:48Speaker 2: every morning at 10 o'clock here on ABC. Also, Fox
- 50:51Speaker 2: and Friends and his own terrific show, The Best on Cable,
- 50:54Speaker 2: 10 p.m. Sunday nights, One Nation. My man, Brian Kilmeade. Brian,
- 50:59Speaker 2: here we go again. This mayor doesn't stop knowing full
- 51:02Speaker 2: well he can't do it and it's never going to happen.
- 51:06Speaker 5: Yeah, and put it this way.
- 51:07Speaker 24: The mayor is really dangerous and here's why. He does
- 51:13Speaker 24: not look like, I look at El Saeed, that guy
- 51:16Speaker 24: looks like he's threatening everybody. He's got a swagger and
- 51:18Speaker 24: a cockiness. It's really a repellent. Yeah, for his supporters,
- 51:21Speaker 24: they love it. But he's really a repellent. You look
- 51:24Speaker 24: at that guy and go, okay, I can't stand him.
- 51:27Speaker 24: But the thing about Mondami that makes him dangerous, and
- 51:29Speaker 24: I have a few people in my life, they come
- 51:31Speaker 24: off so nice, but they are really destructive, is that
- 51:34Speaker 24: he comes off as this Guy, he's harmless. Whatever you need,
- 51:38Speaker 24: I'm here to help. Oh, I'm sorry you're mad at me.
- 51:41Speaker 24: You know, let's do a scavenger hunt through the city.
- 51:44Speaker 24: But he's really a guy that has really said very
- 51:47Speaker 24: little good about our country ever. I don't really think
- 51:50Speaker 24: he even loves the city that much. And if you
- 51:52Speaker 24: want to know what he's really like, look at them
- 51:54Speaker 24: exploding at Tom Holman a year and a half ago
- 51:57Speaker 24: when Holman went up to Albany to try to say
- 52:00Speaker 24: you've got to stop being a sanctuary city and try
- 52:02Speaker 24: to work with Eric Adams in order to be able
- 52:03Speaker 24: to scoop up our guys. You know, when Joe Biden
- 52:06Speaker 24: was president. So that's the guy I know. And for
- 52:09Speaker 24: him to sit down there and talk like a tough
- 52:11Speaker 24: guy after Netanyahu came and went and he wasn't arrested
- 52:14Speaker 24: with the Ovan shows what a wuss he is. Number one,
- 52:17Speaker 24: because he'd said nothing when Netanyahu was here. He says
- 52:19Speaker 24: he was going to personally go out there and protest.
- 52:21Speaker 24: He had disappeared. So I'm disappointed the president bolsters him.
- 52:27Speaker 24: Because it hurts Blakeman. It hurts Lepetri right here. Mike
- 52:33Speaker 24: Lepetri right here in New York running against Tom Suozzi,
- 52:35Speaker 24: who was on the yesterday.
- 52:36Speaker 5: I like him. Mike's a great guy, Republican.
- 52:39Speaker 24: But all those guys say I'm running against what's growing
- 52:42Speaker 24: in New York City, this growing sense of socialism, communism.
- 52:46Speaker 5: And and this.
- 52:48Speaker 24: Islamist flair, this anti-Semitic push that's coming out of New
- 52:51Speaker 24: York City. And it's hard to do that when the
- 52:53Speaker 24: president is visiting him at Gracie Mansion. Now, I have
- 52:57Speaker 24: no problem talking to people that disagree with you, especially
- 53:01Speaker 24: to get to a common goal. But I don't understand
- 53:05Speaker 24: the attraction. But I do know that the president appreciates
- 53:08Speaker 24: success because he came out.
- 53:09Speaker 2: Of nowhere to win.
- 53:10Speaker 5: He's not a big fan of Cuomo. And number two.
- 53:13Speaker 24: He feels as though he can win him over and
- 53:18Speaker 24: stop making New York the anti-Trump enclave that many people
- 53:22Speaker 24: in New York say he is. But it's very similar
- 53:24Speaker 24: to how the president deals with Vladimir Putin and President Xi.
- 53:27Speaker 24: He's like, these guys are people I got to deal with.
- 53:29Speaker 24: They give me respect, so I'll give it back. even
- 53:32Speaker 24: though Vladimir Putin is poisoning his enemies at a daily basis,
- 53:35Speaker 24: rocketing into apartment buildings, trying to kill Ukrainian civilians, putting
- 53:39Speaker 24: his own people into a meat grinder where thousands die
- 53:43Speaker 24: every month for no reason that they can think of.
- 53:46Speaker 24: And then you have President Xi, who's got the Uyghurs
- 53:49Speaker 24: living under Holocaust-like conditions, steamrolled Hong Kong, and on a
- 53:54Speaker 24: daily basis threatening to take over ally Taiwan. But the
- 53:57Speaker 24: president says, if I got to deal with these guys,
- 54:00Speaker 24: and if they're nice to me, I'll be nice to them.
- 54:02Speaker 24: And that's when they write the story about him. I
- 54:04Speaker 24: think it'll show, judging by what happens with China and
- 54:08Speaker 24: Russia and here in New York City, if he's able
- 54:11Speaker 24: to get his way in New York City, he's going
- 54:13Speaker 24: to say the ends justify the means.
- 54:15Speaker 5: But in the meantime.
- 54:17Speaker 24: I really resent the fact that he's legitimizing him by
- 54:20Speaker 24: meeting with him.
- 54:21Speaker 2: That makes no sense. I mean, there I was in
- 54:23Speaker 2: Dallas a week before. He talked about the dangers of
- 54:26Speaker 2: communism and he hates these DSA candidates. And here he
- 54:29Speaker 2: is less than a week later. And believe me, Ken
- 54:32Speaker 2: Paxton saw the same thing. So there's a lot of inconsistencies.
- 54:35Speaker 2: But you're right about President Trump. That is his. persona
- 54:39Speaker 2: and that's uh he does it well he does and
- 54:42Speaker 2: you know you mentioned Bruce Blakeman dear dear friend of
- 54:44Speaker 2: mine and I'm kind of his uh unofficial campaign manager
- 54:48Speaker 2: I know that the president and Bruce will be in
- 54:50Speaker 2: Syracuse together October the 9th I plan on being there
- 54:53Speaker 2: too but he's another guy that is running for office
- 54:57Speaker 2: and needs the president to stay on course He's got
- 55:01Speaker 2: to make it about Republicans. He can't be saying nice
- 55:04Speaker 2: things about the competition. And here was the president yesterday
- 55:08Speaker 2: in Texas, in Oklahoma. Today he's going to Alabama. So, Brian,
- 55:11Speaker 2: we're about 30 days out. Most of the people I
- 55:15Speaker 2: speak to that are not Republican politicians or candidates don't
- 55:19Speaker 2: feel very good about our chances coming up in about
- 55:23Speaker 2: a month. They say, almost all of them, we are 1,000%
- 55:27Speaker 2: going to lose the House election. They feel okay about
- 55:31Speaker 2: retaining the Senate, although some think we're going to lose
- 55:34Speaker 2: all of it. What do you think about 30 days out?
- 55:37Speaker 5: Put it this way, Sid. You and I came through sports.
- 55:41Speaker 24: Anybody who's going to tell us exactly what's going to happen,
- 55:44Speaker 24: because you read Street and Smith the day before, And
- 55:47Speaker 24: that's what this is.
- 55:48Speaker 5: Everything is within three points.
- 55:50Speaker 2: Everything's.
- 55:51Speaker 24: So anyone said, oh, this is done and this is
- 55:53Speaker 24: it's not going to happen because this.
- 55:55Speaker 5: Game has not been decided yet.
- 55:57Speaker 24: And they're beginning to define things because people don't pay
- 55:59Speaker 24: attention to after Labor Day. And now the president's going
- 56:01Speaker 24: to be hands on for 33 straight days.
- 56:03Speaker 2: And J.D.
- 56:04Speaker 24: Vance yesterday, he can definitely can make his message crisp.
- 56:09Speaker 24: And he says, look, make Democrats say what they would do.
- 56:12Speaker 24: Mark Thiessen, I encourage everyone to read The Washington Post today,
- 56:15Speaker 24: broke down. How much President Trump is responsible for when
- 56:19Speaker 24: it comes to affordability? 4% of the inflation is on Trump.
- 56:24Speaker 24: The other 21% is on Biden. When Biden took office,
- 56:28Speaker 24: rates for your mortgage was 2.8%. Now it's 7%.
- 56:33Speaker 20: Why?
- 56:33Speaker 24: Because this idiot rocketed up inflation, spent $ 1. 9 trillion on
- 56:38Speaker 24: packages we didn't need of over 3.6% overall.
- 56:41Speaker 5: And then the inflation got out of control.
- 56:43Speaker 24: So what does the Fed do? They raise rates. So
- 56:46Speaker 24: what does Trump have? He's got a situation where no
- 56:48Speaker 24: one's dumping their 2% mortgage for a 7% mortgage. And
- 56:52Speaker 24: they go, why isn't Trump self-housing? Well, he was handed
- 56:55Speaker 24: a hand grenade. So now inflation was at 5.4% cumulatively
- 56:59Speaker 24: high when it comes to Joe Biden at 9%.
- 57:03Speaker 5: Trump said 2.7%. And they're like, why you haven't controlled things?
- 57:06Speaker 2: He goes, I did.
- 57:07Speaker 24: I cut it in half. You know, what's with gas prices?
- 57:10Speaker 24: Still less than Joe Biden.
- 57:12Speaker 5: And then you got to ask yourself this. Well, gas
- 57:14Speaker 5: prices are right.
- 57:15Speaker 2: Why?
- 57:15Speaker 5: Well, because we got a war and we got the
- 57:17Speaker 5: trade problem. We're beginning to.
- 57:19Speaker 24: Straighten that out, pun intended. But as you know, I'm
- 57:22Speaker 24: drilling offshore. I'm getting the pipelines flowing through Alaska. We
- 57:25Speaker 24: got this incredible deal with Venezuela. We're going to have
- 57:28Speaker 24: that strategic oil reserve filled up. And we are going
- 57:32Speaker 24: to have gas prices around $ 3 or $ 2. 80 as soon
- 57:35Speaker 24: as this conflict is ended. And you just have to
- 57:37Speaker 24: ask yourself, the party that said, stop drilling offshore, stop
- 57:43Speaker 24: drilling on federal lands.
- 57:45Speaker 5: Let's not build a refinery.
- 57:47Speaker 24: Let's convert them to convert them or shut them down
- 57:50Speaker 24: and do a deal with the devil with Maduro in Venezuela.
- 57:53Speaker 5: Drain the strategic oil reserve.
- 57:55Speaker 24: Are those the policies that are going to get you
- 57:58Speaker 24: $ 3 a gallon gas?
- 58:00Speaker 2: Of course not.
- 58:02Speaker 24: What Trump and everybody else got to do is said,
- 58:04Speaker 24: Look what my guy's going to do. Look what that
- 58:06Speaker 24: guy's going to do. I'll tell you exactly what I'm
- 58:08Speaker 24: going to stand behind it.
- 58:10Speaker 5: I'm reconfiguring trade in real time.
- 58:13Speaker 24: And there's some short-term pain and some tariff revenue coming in.
- 58:16Speaker 5: But these are all policies.
- 58:18Speaker 24: Not one trade deal did Joe Biden do. No, no
- 58:22Speaker 24: drilling was Joe Biden doing, right? He wasn't letting the
- 58:25Speaker 24: Middle East run wild, even though he begged Iran for
- 58:29Speaker 24: a deal. That's how he got the Hamas attack. They
- 58:32Speaker 24: were flush with cash and training. Trump is attacking all
- 58:36Speaker 24: of it. So what they just got to do is
- 58:38Speaker 24: explain it.
- 58:39Speaker 2: That is the big issue that everybody from KT McFaul
- 58:43Speaker 2: and you and other really smart people talk about on
- 58:45Speaker 2: my show, the messaging issue. the messaging coming from the
- 58:49Speaker 2: White House, most people seem to think isn't great, even
- 58:52Speaker 2: though what you just said is true, and that is
- 58:54Speaker 2: that President Trump is great. All right, we were missing
- 58:57Speaker 2: to cover one local story. It's the big one, a
- 58:59Speaker 2: really gross story about a young lady that claims, alleges
- 59:04Speaker 2: she was gang raped by seven students at Cornell University.
- 59:07Speaker 2: Somebody in the gym said to me yesterday, these are
- 59:10Speaker 2: Ivy League kids. Let me tell you something. Ivy League kids,
- 59:14Speaker 2: they could be some of the biggest degenerates in the country.
- 59:16Speaker 2: Trust me. Don't be fooled because they may be smarter
- 59:20Speaker 2: than these other kids. But now the governor, Kathy Hochul,
- 59:23Speaker 2: talking about Blakeman earlier, he's going to win But she's
- 59:25Speaker 2: a governor right now. She appoints Letitia James, the attorney general,
- 59:30Speaker 2: as the special prosecutor. What are your thoughts on this move?
- 59:35Speaker 5: Well, I mean, I'm just reading. It almost took me
- 59:37Speaker 5: all morning.
- 59:37Speaker 24: You know, we get up at three in the morning
- 59:39Speaker 24: in order to get on top of the breaking news.
- 59:40Speaker 24: And I did I did Laura's show last night at seven.
- 59:43Speaker 24: And this story has evolved even since then. So I
- 59:47Speaker 24: this is first off. This is what I say to
- 59:48Speaker 24: myself every day. Duke lacrosse case.
- 59:51Speaker 5: Everyone's like, well, these kids, how many are involved?
- 59:53Speaker 24: And, you know, we thought this woman was somewhat telling
- 59:55Speaker 24: the truth, but I didn't make any huge commitments.
- 59:57Speaker 5: But for the most part.
- 59:59Speaker 24: 90% of people convicted those Duke La Crosse kids, and
- 1:00:01Speaker 24: it turns out she made the whole freaking story up.
- 1:00:04Speaker 24: I'm not saying this woman is 100% right or 100% wrong.
- 1:00:07Speaker 24: All I'm going to say is, we weren't there. Let's
- 1:00:10Speaker 24: see the evidence come in. This is going to be
- 1:00:14Speaker 24: the most fascinating debate ever in this way. If you
- 1:00:18Speaker 24: get If you are on drugs or drunk, are you
- 1:00:22Speaker 24: no longer responsible for your actions?
- 1:00:26Speaker 5: Are people acting morally?
- 1:00:27Speaker 24: And is there a difference between more acting morally and illegally?
- 1:00:32Speaker 5: So criminally, I should say.
- 1:00:34Speaker 24: So we're talking about 2024 and the embarrassment that goes
- 1:00:38Speaker 24: on that women talk about in a situation like this.
- 1:00:41Speaker 24: And then, for example, people overshot the target and they
- 1:00:44Speaker 24: have a name out there. And it's a Marine that
- 1:00:47Speaker 24: wasn't even a former Marine that wasn't even there. Nixon,
- 1:00:49Speaker 24: you know, he's getting death threats as a rapist. He
- 1:00:50Speaker 24: had nothing to do with it. So irresponsible actions could
- 1:00:54Speaker 24: cost lives in this situation. But my feeling is any
- 1:00:57Speaker 24: time with Tisha James involved, I never think justice will follow.
- 1:01:01Speaker 24: That's not going to help anything. Because she is so,
- 1:01:05Speaker 24: I mean, you know exactly where this is heading. I
- 1:01:07Speaker 24: want the right story. I don't want the politically correct story.
- 1:01:11Speaker 24: So I'm going to keep the powder dry, and I
- 1:01:14Speaker 24: think it's going to get a very spirited debate. It's
- 1:01:16Speaker 24: just amazing how divided we are, even on this issue.
- 1:01:20Speaker 24: Some people say the woman's 100% right. Some people say,
- 1:01:22Speaker 24: here we go again, guys being victimized on college campuses.
- 1:01:27Speaker 11: So.
- 1:01:28Speaker 5: here, you know, it's just unfortunate all around. And now a.
- 1:01:32Speaker 24: Civil suit turns into a criminal suit. And you have
- 1:01:35Speaker 24: to wonder if justice is even possible.
- 1:01:36Speaker 5: What do you think?
- 1:01:37Speaker 2: I'm with you. I got to see more details. You
- 1:01:39Speaker 2: have to learn more about it. I usually tend to
- 1:01:43Speaker 2: support the woman.
- 1:01:45Speaker 1: I just do.
- 1:01:45Speaker 2: And that's me because I'm a gentleman, but I got
- 1:01:49Speaker 2: to learn more about this case. And you mentioned Duke
- 1:01:51Speaker 2: lacrosse or has been precedence and other cases, Virginia too,
- 1:01:54Speaker 2: where we've seen some of these events happen. Now, Letitia James,
- 1:01:58Speaker 2: you know, last night there was a debate on New
- 1:02:01Speaker 2: York One. Joe Hernandez, my friend, is running for Comptroller
- 1:02:04Speaker 2: against Tom DiNapoli. That same network will have a debate
- 1:02:08Speaker 2: between Hochul and Blakeman on October the 13th. But the
- 1:02:12Speaker 2: next debate coming up is this young lady, Saritha. Don't
- 1:02:15Speaker 2: know if you know who she is. I love her.
- 1:02:17Speaker 2: She's done a bunch of events with me. She was
- 1:02:19Speaker 2: on Long Island with me, Blakeman and Trump, and she's
- 1:02:22Speaker 2: running against Letitia James. And of course she's a huge underdog,
- 1:02:26Speaker 2: huge underdog, but she is a smart, classy lady. And
- 1:02:31Speaker 2: if God is good to us, We'll get a huge
- 1:02:33Speaker 2: upset in that. So with the Letitia James battle coming up.
- 1:02:37Speaker 2: All right. So only two days away. Sunday night, One Nation,
- 1:02:40Speaker 2: 10 p.m. Best show on television. Best show on Fox News.
- 1:02:44Speaker 2: Two days out, Brian. What are we going to see
- 1:02:47Speaker 2: on Sunday night?
- 1:02:48Speaker 24: I'm going to lead with Tom Cotton. Going to go
- 1:02:49Speaker 24: to Ari Fleischer, Tom Cotton on China. I've been reading
- 1:02:52Speaker 24: the People's Daily. That's Chinese-English paper. When they're mad at
- 1:02:56Speaker 24: us or they have a plot and plan, they usually
- 1:02:58Speaker 24: put it there.
- 1:02:59Speaker 5: It's basically a propaganda reel. I looked at the top
- 1:03:02Speaker 5: 10 stories.
- 1:03:04Speaker 24: Four of them are positive for the U.S. None are negative.
- 1:03:07Speaker 24: What did Trump discuss? Tom Cotton's an expert in this
- 1:03:10Speaker 24: on foreign relations. Not easily duped. Tim Scott's going to
- 1:03:13Speaker 24: be with us, too. He's in charge of keeping the
- 1:03:14Speaker 24: Senate red. That was what we were talking about leading
- 1:03:17Speaker 24: up to this spot. He's going to talk to us
- 1:03:19Speaker 24: about that. Also, I have I mentioned Ari Fleischer is
- 1:03:24Speaker 24: going to be with us. And I know I got
- 1:03:28Speaker 24: another some more key guests here. who elude me at
- 1:03:31Speaker 24: this very moment, but it's going to be a big
- 1:03:33Speaker 24: show Sunday at 10 o'clock, and then I'm pumped up
- 1:03:36Speaker 24: next week, next Tuesday, not this Tuesday, coming up Tuesday afternoon,
- 1:03:41Speaker 24: the 13th, my book, United States, comes out, the six
- 1:03:44Speaker 24: crucial moments that forge the American revolution, the American miracle,
- 1:03:48Speaker 24: and the main thing is I want people to understand
- 1:03:50Speaker 24: how great our country is, and I'd like to break
- 1:03:53Speaker 24: it down to the six moments that made us so
- 1:03:56Speaker 24: they could fully appreciate what we have here as we
- 1:03:59Speaker 24: celebrate year 250. And there's going to be a TV
- 1:04:02Speaker 24: special with it. I've been shooting that for the last
- 1:04:04Speaker 24: eight months, and that'll be on Fox Nation, too.
- 1:04:07Speaker 2: And then, of course, you've got not just the book
- 1:04:09Speaker 2: coming out, the 13th, and the Fox Nation movie, but
- 1:04:13Speaker 2: then you've got a live show coming up in Westbury.
- 1:04:18Speaker 24: Yeah, I got Red Bank, New Jersey on Friday, 16th.
- 1:04:22Speaker 24: And hopefully we could sell that out too. And on
- 1:04:24Speaker 24: the 17th in Westbury, Long Island, it's in the round.
- 1:04:30Speaker 24: I had dinner with our good friend, Bill O'Reilly.
- 1:04:32Speaker 5: He did that.
- 1:04:33Speaker 24: The first time I ever saw a non-music event there
- 1:04:36Speaker 24: was him and Dennis Miller. I don't think for a
- 1:04:39Speaker 24: second I got that type of talent, but I do
- 1:04:41Speaker 24: think we're going to put together an entertaining show. And, Sid,
- 1:04:44Speaker 24: I'm still talking to your people about negotiating some type
- 1:04:46Speaker 24: of fees and the riders involved. I mean, this has
- 1:04:49Speaker 24: been going on all night. I told the guys, don't
- 1:04:51Speaker 24: leave the room until we get a deal. It reminds
- 1:04:54Speaker 24: me of the 1990s baseball strike. It just could go
- 1:05:00Speaker 24: on for a while.
- 1:05:00Speaker 2: Forever.
- 1:05:01Speaker 5: You have certain demands.
- 1:05:02Speaker 2: I do have demands. I'm like A-Rod with the Mets.
- 1:05:05Speaker 2: In the final 30 seconds, talking about the baseball strike.
- 1:05:07Speaker 5: Which, by the way, he never was a Met.
- 1:05:09Speaker 2: No, he never was. But the Yankees are set to
- 1:05:12Speaker 2: take on the Rays. Big best-of-five series starting tomorrow. We've
- 1:05:16Speaker 2: got four more series about to go. The division series
- 1:05:19Speaker 2: inside baseball. You talk about the work stoppage in the 90s.
- 1:05:22Speaker 2: It does look like... Unless there's a miracle, maybe Trump
- 1:05:25Speaker 2: gets involved. He actually offered his services a couple of
- 1:05:28Speaker 2: days ago. There will be a work stoppage in baseball
- 1:05:31Speaker 2: next year. Some say a couple of months. Some say
- 1:05:34Speaker 2: the whole season. When are we going to get past
- 1:05:39Speaker 2: all these work stoppages, Brian, in sports?
- 1:05:41Speaker 5: I thought we did. I mean, it was nonstop.
- 1:05:45Speaker 24: I can remember the walkout, the scab players in football, remember,
- 1:05:48Speaker 24: and then It was nonstop in baseball, but they really
- 1:05:52Speaker 24: have to reconfigure things.
- 1:05:53Speaker 5: I mean, put it this way, Sid.
- 1:05:54Speaker 24: We're caught up in the Mets. You know, when the
- 1:05:55Speaker 24: Mets are good, they'll sell out, right? And the Yankees
- 1:05:58Speaker 24: have been selling out all year. But did you see
- 1:06:00Speaker 24: what's happening in Houston? They made the playoffs. They had 21,000
- 1:06:04Speaker 24: empty seats. I mean, their kid, Tampa, is going to
- 1:06:07Speaker 24: be as great as that franchise is. One of the
- 1:06:09Speaker 24: greatest franchises in sports is going to be all Yankee fans.
- 1:06:12Speaker 5: They can't sell it.
- 1:06:13Speaker 24: They got a beautiful stadium with a roof in Florida,
- 1:06:16Speaker 24: in Miami.
- 1:06:17Speaker 5: They can't get anything.
- 1:06:19Speaker 24: Maybe if they put together another perfect season like they
- 1:06:21Speaker 24: did in the 90s, they'll be able to do that,
- 1:06:23Speaker 24: but they can't draw.
- 1:06:24Speaker 5: They have to reconfigure that sport.
- 1:06:26Speaker 24: The Pittsburgh Pirates haven't tried to compete since Bobby Bonilla
- 1:06:28Speaker 24: was playing third base and Barry Bonds was in center field.
- 1:06:32Speaker 2: Come on.
- 1:06:33Speaker 24: You have to have a minimum and you got to
- 1:06:35Speaker 24: have a maximum. The luxury tax, not really working because
- 1:06:39Speaker 24: the younger teams, the smaller market teams or the ones
- 1:06:42Speaker 24: that play like smaller market teams spend the money on themselves.
- 1:06:45Speaker 24: They don't put it back into their roster. So I
- 1:06:48Speaker 24: think there's got to be reconfiguring. And, you know, I
- 1:06:50Speaker 24: can't believe it, but the Yankees like leading the charge.
- 1:06:53Speaker 24: You know, I mean, the Dodgers aren't, but the Yankees are.
- 1:06:57Speaker 24: I think the Yankees really want a salary cap.
- 1:06:59Speaker 2: I think they do, too. And they want to see
- 1:07:01Speaker 2: more competition, make it fair. Randy Levine, one of the
- 1:07:04Speaker 2: all-time greats. And the Steinbrenner family, you got to love
- 1:07:07Speaker 2: the Yanks. Brian, as always, amazing job. This was an
- 1:07:10Speaker 2: amazing 18-minute conversation. Have yourself a great weekend. Enjoy One
- 1:07:15Speaker 2: Nation Sunday night. And next week, you and I, we
- 1:07:18Speaker 2: finish up these big negotiations.
- 1:07:20Speaker 5: Yes, we will see. I'm optimistic. Go get them, Sid.
- 1:07:24Speaker 1: Thanks so much.
- 1:07:24Speaker 2: All right, bye. You're great. You're really all great. Coming
- 1:07:26Speaker 2: up after me, 10 o'clock this morning and every weekday morning.
- 1:07:29Speaker 2: And of course, Fox and Friends and One Nation. That's
- 1:07:32Speaker 2: my good buddy, Brian Kilmeade. Sid and Friends.
- 1:07:36Speaker 3: In the Morning on the Red Apple Podcast Network.
- 1:07:41Speaker 2: That was the hero pilot from that fly Dubai flight
- 1:07:44Speaker 2: talking initially. Then you heard from President Trump, which is great.
- 1:07:47Speaker 2: They put him right by the road turner, by the helicopter.
- 1:07:50Speaker 2: You can't hear a goddamn word he says. And then
- 1:07:52Speaker 2: you heard from Bibi Netanyahu. So it turns out that
- 1:07:55Speaker 2: the president said yesterday that at least he intimated, he
- 1:07:58Speaker 2: thinks that Iran may be behind this terrorist plot, this pilot,
- 1:08:05Speaker 2: who the conventional wisdom is, the consensus is, is that
- 1:08:09Speaker 2: he wanted to crash that plane somewhere in Israel, and
- 1:08:14Speaker 2: he tried to kill the pilot, but the pilot, so smart,
- 1:08:20Speaker 2: as he was on the floor writhing in pain and
- 1:08:23Speaker 2: bleeding to death, found a way to open the door,
- 1:08:27Speaker 2: and that's when these passengers, again very similar to flight
- 1:08:31Speaker 2: United 93 back on 9-11, which unfortunately crashed in Shanksville, Pennsylvania,
- 1:08:37Speaker 2: they all died, But these Israeli passengers, I say this
- 1:08:41Speaker 2: all the time, I don't care if you hate the Jews,
- 1:08:44Speaker 2: you hate Israel, I don't care. That's you. That's on you, okay?
- 1:08:48Speaker 2: These are the most resilient, courageous people anywhere in the world.
- 1:08:53Speaker 2: That doesn't mean I'm not America first. I love our
- 1:08:56Speaker 2: people here. I love our service people. But this country...
- 1:09:00Speaker 2: I'm talking about civilians, are getting softer and softer every day. Israelis,
- 1:09:07Speaker 2: when they're seven years old, they learn how to carry
- 1:09:10Speaker 2: and shoot a gun.
- 1:09:11Speaker 11: Okay?
- 1:09:12Speaker 2: Boys, girls, doesn't matter. So the odds are, If you're
- 1:09:17Speaker 2: on a flight and Israelis can help you physically, they're
- 1:09:20Speaker 2: going to do it. It's just the way they're raised.
- 1:09:23Speaker 2: It's different here. Here, you know, your kids are on
- 1:09:27Speaker 2: Snapchat or watching cartoons, doing something really important, you know.
- 1:09:31Speaker 2: While the Chinese are acing math and science and the
- 1:09:35Speaker 2: Israelis can take on just about any country in the world,
- 1:09:39Speaker 2: despite the fact of the size of New Jersey, we
- 1:09:42Speaker 2: play games. That's what we do. We play games. And
- 1:09:45Speaker 2: we criticize everybody else. We've become very, very good at that,
- 1:09:49Speaker 2: haven't we? Congratulations to that passenger list and the crew
- 1:09:55Speaker 2: and everybody that made sure that plane did not crash
- 1:09:59Speaker 2: and averted a real disaster. And again, back to Cornell,
- 1:10:02Speaker 2: because I discussed it with Brian Kilmeade. I discussed it
- 1:10:05Speaker 2: with Noam. Joe Takapina's coming on. I don't care about...
- 1:10:11Speaker 2: I don't care whether or not these kids are criminally responsible.
- 1:10:15Speaker 2: That's up to the lawyers to figure that out. The
- 1:10:17Speaker 2: evidence and all that. I'm telling you, as a father
- 1:10:22Speaker 2: of a daughter who went away to college in the UK,
- 1:10:25Speaker 2: I was scared to death, and is now at the
- 1:10:27Speaker 2: University of Pennsylvania. Wonderful school, Ivy League school, the law school,
- 1:10:32Speaker 2: just like Cornell is. It doesn't matter.
- 1:10:35Speaker 10: Right?
- 1:10:35Speaker 2: Just because you did well in school, like Lisa says,
- 1:10:38Speaker 2: you got a big SAT score, doesn't mean you're a
- 1:10:41Speaker 2: good human being. Now, Duke... We found out that was
- 1:10:46Speaker 2: all lies, Virginia. So the precedence has been set where
- 1:10:51Speaker 2: the boys have been victimized. Yes. But I'm here to
- 1:10:56Speaker 2: tell you that the overwhelming majority of these stories, not
- 1:11:01Speaker 2: just colleges, the woman is right. And from a moral standpoint,
- 1:11:07Speaker 2: for you animals on Twitter that have been killing me
- 1:11:09Speaker 2: all morning long, not from a criminal standpoint, you're right.
- 1:11:13Speaker 2: I don't have the details. I don't know. I don't know.
- 1:11:17Speaker 2: But from a moral standpoint, as the dad of a
- 1:11:21Speaker 2: beautiful 17-year-old son, if my son took part as one
- 1:11:27Speaker 2: of seven seven guys to have sex with this girl,
- 1:11:33Speaker 2: whether she was completely incapacitated or not. I would beat
- 1:11:37Speaker 2: my son, who I've never touched in my life, mind you, ever.
- 1:11:41Speaker 2: I would beat him from the morning to the evening.
- 1:11:45Speaker 2: It is morally disgusting. If you can't admit that, I'm
- 1:11:50Speaker 2: not saying criminal. I don't have enough facts. I'm not
- 1:11:53Speaker 2: saying put these kids away. You guys are killing me
- 1:11:55Speaker 2: on Twitter. I'm not saying that. What I'm saying is,
- 1:11:59Speaker 2: by the second, the third, the fourth, the sixth or
- 1:12:02Speaker 2: seventh guy, while this girl laid there basically motionless and
- 1:12:07Speaker 2: high as a kite, someone had to figure out, you
- 1:12:10Speaker 2: know what? This probably isn't right. But they didn't. And
- 1:12:15Speaker 2: they bragged about it on Snapchat. So, just from a
- 1:12:20Speaker 2: moral standpoint, these boys and their parents... Should be humiliated. Legally?
- 1:12:27Speaker 2: I don't know. I don't have enough information. I really don't.
- 1:12:31Speaker 2: We'll see. I don't want these kids to go to jail,
- 1:12:35Speaker 2: get the death penalty. I don't know. But what I
- 1:12:38Speaker 2: am saying, if this girl was as high as she
- 1:12:41Speaker 2: claimed she was, and seven guys, seven, had sex with her,
- 1:12:48Speaker 2: shame on them. If that makes me a bad guy,
- 1:12:50Speaker 2: guess what? F you. I'll punch you right across the face.
- 1:12:54Speaker 2: Back after this.
- 1:12:55Speaker 12: Sid and Friends in the Morning on the Red Apple
- 1:12:59Speaker 12: Podcast Network.
- 1:13:01Speaker 2: I know you've got a lovely daughter. She's doing great.
- 1:13:03Speaker 2: Politician down in Florida. My daughter's at Penn Law doing great. So, yeah,
- 1:13:09Speaker 2: I mean, I come from a very emotional place with this,
- 1:13:11Speaker 2: but I don't know if these boys are criminally responsible yet.
- 1:13:17Speaker 2: I don't have enough details. I'm not irresponsible in that way.
- 1:13:22Speaker 2: I don't know if they're criminally responsible yet. But I'm
- 1:13:25Speaker 2: telling you, KT, there's not a girl in this world,
- 1:13:29Speaker 2: in this country, I said this earlier, that wants to
- 1:13:32Speaker 2: have sex with seven guys, okay? Unless they're porn stars
- 1:13:36Speaker 2: or only band girls. There's not a college girl in
- 1:13:39Speaker 2: this country who's okay with having sex with seven guys
- 1:13:43Speaker 2: in a row. That's all I need to know. What
- 1:13:45Speaker 2: about you?
- 1:13:47Speaker 14: Yeah, I thought what you said a few minutes ago
- 1:13:48Speaker 14: was really interesting, that when these guys are... Did somebody say, hey,
- 1:13:55Speaker 14: wait a minute, this is wrong from their perspective, not
- 1:13:58Speaker 14: from her perspective, but from their perspective? Is this wrong?
- 1:14:01Speaker 14: And I'm going to walk out of here and, you know,
- 1:14:03Speaker 14: we'll find out with time what what happened, what didn't happen.
- 1:14:07Speaker 14: Everybody's got, you know, video on their iPhone. So there's
- 1:14:11Speaker 14: got to be a lot of video evidence of whatever
- 1:14:13Speaker 14: went on, went on. But I would agree with you.
- 1:14:16Speaker 14: And I think it just to me, it sort of
- 1:14:18Speaker 14: speaks to a coarsening concern. of our sense of personal
- 1:14:22Speaker 14: integrity and values. Like, okay, well, everything's fine. You know,
- 1:14:25Speaker 14: as long as you can get away with it. And
- 1:14:28Speaker 14: I'm not saying that these guys did or didn't do it,
- 1:14:30Speaker 14: but it's a general sense in society. If I can
- 1:14:33Speaker 14: get away with it, that's just fine. It's no sense
- 1:14:36Speaker 14: of conscience or moral self-examination that I think we've lost.
- 1:14:42Speaker 14: And I certainly hope we can at some point get
- 1:14:44Speaker 14: back to the sense where people have a set of
- 1:14:46Speaker 14: rules that they live their lives by and And even
- 1:14:49Speaker 14: if it's not easy to live by those set of rules,
- 1:14:52Speaker 14: they still endeavor.
- 1:14:53Speaker 11: To do it.
- 1:14:54Speaker 2: Well said. But you can take it to a political level, okay?
- 1:14:57Speaker 2: The Democrats especially. There was an incident not that long
- 1:15:01Speaker 2: ago in New York, okay? You talk about just being
- 1:15:04Speaker 2: on the right side of something morally. Where there was
- 1:15:06Speaker 2: a bad guy and a cop got into a scuffle.
- 1:15:09Speaker 2: They both ended up in the hospital. And who did
- 1:15:12Speaker 2: the mayor go visit? The bad guy. So, you know,
- 1:15:16Speaker 2: when we are politicians... all over the country that coddle criminals, right?
- 1:15:23Speaker 2: They say that criminals are the victims. I'm not making
- 1:15:26Speaker 2: excuses for what happened at Cornell or any other crime
- 1:15:30Speaker 2: that may have happened in this country. If it was
- 1:15:31Speaker 2: a crime, I don't know that. But what I'm saying
- 1:15:33Speaker 2: is when you've got politicians who find a way to
- 1:15:37Speaker 2: sympathize with the criminal, what do you expect that the
- 1:15:42Speaker 2: American psyche will look like?
- 1:15:45Speaker 14: Well, it's this whole idea of victimhood. You know, where
- 1:15:48Speaker 14: is that old American? Pull yourself up by your bootstraps. America,
- 1:15:53Speaker 14: go forward. Make your own career. You can be anybody
- 1:15:57Speaker 14: you want to be. Just work hard.
- 1:15:59Speaker 21: Obey the rules.
- 1:16:00Speaker 14: That's how you get ahead as an American. And that
- 1:16:02Speaker 14: used to be our ethos. But what's the ethos now? Oh,
- 1:16:06Speaker 14: it's somebody else's fault. I'm so beleaguered. I didn't have
- 1:16:10Speaker 14: a chance. Something went wrong in my life and it
- 1:16:13Speaker 14: wasn't my fault. It's like nobody's taking personal responsibility for anything.
- 1:16:17Speaker 14: And from that attitude then comes from, well, if everything
- 1:16:21Speaker 14: bad happened to me, then it's somebody and the Democrats,
- 1:16:25Speaker 14: especially spouses, somebody, i.e. the government, that's supposed to take
- 1:16:29Speaker 14: care of me. And, you know, when my family was
- 1:16:33Speaker 14: growing up, it was you were. You were shamed if
- 1:16:37Speaker 14: you were on any kind of government assistance, like you
- 1:16:40Speaker 14: couldn't handle your own affairs. You couldn't work hard. Why
- 1:16:43Speaker 14: were you taking government assistance? Now, especially we see the
- 1:16:46Speaker 14: fraud in Minnesota and other places, especially the fraud in
- 1:16:49Speaker 14: Medicare and Medicaid. It's like, oh, man, if you can
- 1:16:52Speaker 14: get away with it, let's go rob the piggy bank.
- 1:16:54Speaker 11: True.
- 1:16:54Speaker 2: And they blame everybody else. They blame government. They blame
- 1:16:57Speaker 2: the white man. They blame Israel. I mean, I hear
- 1:17:00Speaker 2: Israel getting blamed for stuff. I can't believe it. And
- 1:17:03Speaker 2: here he is, this rotten, disgusting, jihad Islamist mayor.
- 1:17:09Speaker 13: Okay.
- 1:17:10Speaker 2: Again, Bibi was just here eight days ago. He spoke.
- 1:17:14Speaker 2: I was there. It was beautiful. He didn't get arrested.
- 1:17:17Speaker 2: Of course not. And what does he do with a man?
- 1:17:19Speaker 2: He goes on Theo Vaughn's podcast. Theo is some lousy comedian.
- 1:17:26Speaker 2: Looks like he's high all the time. Just like he
- 1:17:28Speaker 2: did on Sandpiker's podcast. And what did he scream about yesterday?
- 1:17:32Speaker 2: Same old, same old. The United States should join the
- 1:17:35Speaker 2: ICC because if we do that... Then we could arrest
- 1:17:39Speaker 2: Bibi Netanyahu. So when Jewish people like me, real Jews,
- 1:17:43Speaker 2: not the Satmar community, not some of the Chabad, the Lubavitch,
- 1:17:46Speaker 2: real Jews, Jews who fight for other Jews, when I
- 1:17:50Speaker 2: get pissed off and I say the mayor's rhetoric is
- 1:17:53Speaker 2: part of the reason why anti-Semitism is a huge issue,
- 1:17:57Speaker 2: and he says what he said again on Theo Bond's
- 1:18:01Speaker 2: podcast the last couple of days, how could you possibly
- 1:18:05Speaker 2: argue with me?
- 1:18:07Speaker 14: You know, what he said was also illegal. He can
- 1:18:10Speaker 14: say anything he wants, but his notion that the United
- 1:18:13Speaker 14: States should join the International Criminal Court and then some
- 1:18:17Speaker 14: super international body is going to come in the United
- 1:18:20Speaker 14: States and arrest Americans and try them in some supra
- 1:18:24Speaker 14: international body. Well, guess what? The supreme law of the
- 1:18:27Speaker 14: land in the United States is the U.S. Constitution. You
- 1:18:30Speaker 14: may not be aware of that, but it is the U.S. Constitution.
- 1:18:33Speaker 14: And in the United States Constitution, we are not allowed
- 1:18:36Speaker 14: as the United States of America to be subservient to
- 1:18:40Speaker 14: or to turn over our sovereignty to any global international organization,
- 1:18:46Speaker 14: especially one that we have no real contribution in taking
- 1:18:50Speaker 14: part of. So not only was Mondami foolish, irresponsible, cold hearted,
- 1:18:58Speaker 14: politically ill. astute, I guess, in a rabble-rousing way, but
- 1:19:03Speaker 14: he was also uninformed and pretty stupid.
- 1:19:05Speaker 2: Pretty stupid. I love that. So you know a lot
- 1:19:07Speaker 2: about national security clearance. I understand he's the mayor of
- 1:19:10Speaker 2: New York and we get threats every day. So I
- 1:19:12Speaker 2: understand he's got to be somewhat pretty. He gets, after
- 1:19:16Speaker 2: nine months, he gets this national security clearance. People are saying, wow,
- 1:19:21Speaker 2: President Trump was at Gracie Mansion eight days ago and
- 1:19:24Speaker 2: now the mayor gets what he wanted? I don't know
- 1:19:27Speaker 2: if it was Trump or not, but the odds are
- 1:19:28Speaker 2: it was. But in Trump's defense, he is the mayor
- 1:19:31Speaker 2: of this city. There are threats here all the time.
- 1:19:34Speaker 2: But I freaked out. Me, Laura Lomer, we went nuts.
- 1:19:38Speaker 2: And Peter King said to me yesterday, listen, listen, I'm
- 1:19:40Speaker 2: with you, but you have to understand, not every national...
- 1:19:44Speaker 2: Security clearance is the same. There are different levels. So
- 1:19:47Speaker 2: somebody's talking about bombing the George Washington Bridge. The mayor
- 1:19:51Speaker 2: of New York, like him or hate him, I can
- 1:19:53Speaker 2: admit this, he needs to know. That doesn't mean he's
- 1:19:55Speaker 2: privy to everything going on in our intelligence community. Are
- 1:20:00Speaker 2: you agreeing with Peter King on that?
- 1:20:02Speaker 11: Yeah, 100%.
- 1:20:04Speaker 14: So the way it works is that there are several
- 1:20:06Speaker 14: layers of clearances. The first layer is secrecy. And, you know,
- 1:20:11Speaker 14: millions of people have secret. The secret is something that
- 1:20:14Speaker 14: they would stamp on the schedule of a governor going
- 1:20:18Speaker 14: around the state. Then there's the next level up, which
- 1:20:23Speaker 14: is top secret. Now, again, that sounds really, well, that's
- 1:20:26Speaker 14: really the big stuff. Yeah, that's that's pretty important. But
- 1:20:30Speaker 14: then there's something called then they're above those. They're called
- 1:20:34Speaker 14: compartmentalized intelligence. And those are with a need to know.
- 1:20:39Speaker 14: So let's say you're working at the National Security Agency,
- 1:20:42Speaker 14: the satellite agency. You would have special series of clearances
- 1:20:47Speaker 14: which allow you to work with satellite intelligence. Or let's
- 1:20:52Speaker 14: say you're working at the FBI. You have another range
- 1:20:55Speaker 14: of compartmentalized intelligence clearances that would allow you to work there.
- 1:21:01Speaker 14: Let's say you're working at a U.S. embassy abroad. You
- 1:21:04Speaker 14: would have another set of clearances that would allow you to, say,
- 1:21:07Speaker 14: work with your Italian counterparts in working with a potential
- 1:21:11Speaker 14: terrorist threat. But maybe you don't share all of your
- 1:21:14Speaker 14: intelligence with your Italian counterpart because there's another designation on
- 1:21:19Speaker 14: classified documents that says no foreign.
- 1:21:21Speaker 2: No.
- 1:21:22Speaker 14: So no foreign distribution. So only American citizens, only American
- 1:21:27Speaker 14: citizens with these top secret clearances. can have them. And
- 1:21:30Speaker 14: then there's another, we've got another layer, which is code word.
- 1:21:34Speaker 14: And that is only a few people have. So it's secret,
- 1:21:37Speaker 14: top secret, sensitive, no foreign distribution, code word, clearances. And
- 1:21:42Speaker 14: that's really, you know, a handful of people have that.
- 1:21:45Speaker 14: And I promise you, Mondami doesn't have that level of clearance.
- 1:21:49Speaker 2: I guess he's at the bottom. I know something's going
- 1:21:51Speaker 2: to happen here in New York. I guess he should
- 1:21:53Speaker 2: know about it. I just, I hate the guy so much.
- 1:21:55Speaker 2: Everything he does bothers me. I admit that.
- 1:21:58Speaker 14: Here's the evolution of that. is that after September 11th,
- 1:22:01Speaker 14: the NYPD set up its own intelligence unit, and it
- 1:22:05Speaker 14: was brilliantly done.
- 1:22:06Speaker 2: Correct me if I'm wrong, that was Ray Kelly, right?
- 1:22:10Speaker 21: Yep, exactly.
- 1:22:11Speaker 14: And then they brought in people from the CIA, and
- 1:22:14Speaker 14: they brought in people from the FBI. And they had
- 1:22:16Speaker 14: a terrorism and a counterterrorism unit within the NYPD. That's
- 1:22:21Speaker 14: where Jessica Tisch got her start. And they built up
- 1:22:24Speaker 14: one of the most capable intelligence units analysis and prevention
- 1:22:30Speaker 14: units in the world. And they work closely with our
- 1:22:32Speaker 14: intelligence community in the U.S., but they also work abroad
- 1:22:36Speaker 14: with intelligence communities abroad. And so that exists.
- 1:22:44Speaker 2: Katie, come back to me. Come on, that exists. Why? Uh-oh.
- 1:22:49Speaker 2: We didn't lose her at the most important part. I'll
- 1:22:53Speaker 2: take a break for a second. I wanted to finish
- 1:22:55Speaker 2: that thought. God, she's so good. Can we do that, Lewis?
- 1:22:59Speaker 2: Let's take a quick break, and we'll try to get
- 1:23:01Speaker 2: it right back on and let it finish that thought. Plus,
- 1:23:03Speaker 2: I have a question about this airline from Dubai to
- 1:23:06Speaker 2: Tel Aviv. So take a quick break. We'll fix it
- 1:23:08Speaker 2: and get more with the great KT McFarlane right after this.
- 1:23:11Speaker 12: Sid and Friends in the Morning on the Red Apple
- 1:23:15Speaker 12: Podcast Network.
- 1:23:17Speaker 2: Let's get back to KT. KT, I want you to
- 1:23:20Speaker 2: finish your thought. We lost you there. You're on a roll.
- 1:23:23Speaker 2: So if you wouldn't mind, can you please finish your
- 1:23:25Speaker 2: prior thought?
- 1:23:28Speaker 14: Well, I'm not sure where we got cut off, but
- 1:23:30Speaker 14: it's the idea that you want Jessica Tishman as head
- 1:23:34Speaker 14: of the New York Police Department to have access to
- 1:23:36Speaker 14: the highest level of intelligence. especially with regard to New York,
- 1:23:40Speaker 14: especially with regard to international threats coming into New York. Now,
- 1:23:44Speaker 14: is Mondami himself going to pour over the technical aspects
- 1:23:48Speaker 14: of a threat and then somehow call up his pals
- 1:23:52Speaker 14: at the IRGC and give it to them? No, I
- 1:23:54Speaker 14: don't think so. I don't think he even understands that.
- 1:23:57Speaker 14: But I want the mayor of New York, no matter
- 1:23:58Speaker 14: who he is, to be aware of potential threats to
- 1:24:01Speaker 14: the city of New York.
- 1:24:03Speaker 2: Hard to argue that. You know, I'm always... I don't
- 1:24:06Speaker 2: want to say nervous, but hesitant to compliment anything Israel
- 1:24:10Speaker 2: because then I have to live with 9 million tweets
- 1:24:13Speaker 2: about how I'm Israel first. I'm America first, you dumb bastards.
- 1:24:18Speaker 2: I'm Israel second. I'm proud to say that. Every American
- 1:24:21Speaker 2: should be American first, Israel second. But what you saw
- 1:24:25Speaker 2: the other day on this airline from Dubai to Tel Aviv,
- 1:24:29Speaker 2: is why the Israeli people are amazing, resilient, courageous people.
- 1:24:33Speaker 2: Now listen, seven years old, boy or girl, you're taught
- 1:24:37Speaker 2: how to fight. You carry a gun. We don't do
- 1:24:39Speaker 2: that here, okay? And while our service people are great,
- 1:24:42Speaker 2: we've got the best services in the world, armed services,
- 1:24:46Speaker 2: the truth is, as a people... I really believe we're
- 1:24:50Speaker 2: getting softer and softer every day. And that didn't stop
- 1:24:53Speaker 2: those heroic passengers on United Flight 93, which eventually did
- 1:24:58Speaker 2: crash tragically in Pennsylvania on 9-11. They were heroic, too.
- 1:25:03Speaker 2: But these Israelis, I'm telling you, KT, you know this.
- 1:25:06Speaker 2: They are the most resilient, courageous people in the world. A,
- 1:25:10Speaker 2: is that true? And if it is, does that make
- 1:25:13Speaker 2: me Israel first?
- 1:25:16Speaker 14: No, and the reason, so there's been a lot of
- 1:25:19Speaker 14: sort of studies as to why are the Israelis, why
- 1:25:22Speaker 14: is Israel such a tech superpower? Why are they so
- 1:25:25Speaker 14: innovative and creative, punching way above their weight in technology?
- 1:25:30Speaker 14: And one of the hypotheses is that every Israeli, male
- 1:25:34Speaker 14: and female, serves in the Israeli Defense Forces Committee. And
- 1:25:36Speaker 14: the way the Israeli Defense Forces operate is they give
- 1:25:39Speaker 14: a lot of initiative to the individual. In other words,
- 1:25:42Speaker 14: you don't have to run it up the chain and
- 1:25:44Speaker 14: find out what the general wants you to do. You're
- 1:25:47Speaker 14: trained to respond immediately to a crisis situation and make
- 1:25:51Speaker 14: a judgment yourself. It's a very different mindset of a military.
- 1:25:56Speaker 14: The Russians, for example, one of the reasons they're losing
- 1:25:58Speaker 14: so badly in Ukraine is they have to always run
- 1:26:01Speaker 14: it all the way up to the Kremlin to get
- 1:26:02Speaker 14: a decision on whether to fire this drone or that shot.
- 1:26:05Speaker 14: So the Israelis are entrepreneurial in the sense of business,
- 1:26:10Speaker 14: for sure, but in the sense of defense. And I
- 1:26:13Speaker 14: think that's what you saw on the plane. They said,
- 1:26:16Speaker 14: a bunch of Israelis looked at each other.
- 1:26:17Speaker 21: Okay, we got to stop this.
- 1:26:19Speaker 14: And they all jumped up and they all rose to
- 1:26:21Speaker 14: the occasion. The other thing that really struck me about
- 1:26:24Speaker 14: this is this is what the Abraham Accords are all about.
- 1:26:27Speaker 14: That was an airplane going from Dubai to Israel. You
- 1:26:31Speaker 14: never would have had that before the Abraham Accords. You
- 1:26:35Speaker 14: couldn't travel from one country to the other. You couldn't
- 1:26:37Speaker 14: land planes in each other's countries. And where did the
- 1:26:40Speaker 14: plane end up landing? After the hijackers were subdued, it
- 1:26:44Speaker 14: ended up landing in Saudi Arabia. I'm looking at this
- 1:26:47Speaker 14: as a positive development of a new Middle East alliance.
- 1:26:51Speaker 21: I hear you.
- 1:26:51Speaker 2: I still don't trust Saudi Arabia, but I hear you.
- 1:26:53Speaker 2: There's no question what you're saying is factually correct. Do
- 1:26:56Speaker 2: you agree with President Trump? He's assuming at this point,
- 1:27:00Speaker 2: he's not saying he's 100% sure, but he's saying that
- 1:27:03Speaker 2: he thinks this has Iran's fingerprints all over this attempted
- 1:27:08Speaker 2: hijacking and terrorist attack. What do you think?
- 1:27:12Speaker 14: Well, you know, obviously the president knows a whole lot
- 1:27:14Speaker 14: more than any of us know about this. The question
- 1:27:18Speaker 14: is that I would have is what was the vetting
- 1:27:21Speaker 14: of these, of the pilots or any employees of this
- 1:27:23Speaker 14: airline fly Dubai and with their continuous vetting. So in
- 1:27:27Speaker 14: other words, maybe this Omani pilot co-pilot was fine when
- 1:27:30Speaker 14: he joined the airline, but at some point did he
- 1:27:33Speaker 14: become radicalized and who radicalized him? How did they radicalize him?
- 1:27:38Speaker 14: That is what we don't know. And that's what I
- 1:27:40Speaker 14: want to get the answer to because it's, If that's
- 1:27:42Speaker 14: the case, if Iran or Iran adjacent groups are out
- 1:27:46Speaker 14: there busy radicalizing people in key security situations, we need
- 1:27:51Speaker 14: to really ramp up our security and rethink how we're
- 1:27:54Speaker 14: looking at people and how we're renewing their clearances.
- 1:27:57Speaker 2: I got bad news for you. And I don't have
- 1:27:58Speaker 2: the same information the president has. They absolutely are. I
- 1:28:01Speaker 2: can guarantee you in every field and a lot of countries,
- 1:28:06Speaker 2: they are doing that. It's like ISIS did many, many
- 1:28:08Speaker 2: years ago, but they're a lot bigger, a lot more dangerous,
- 1:28:11Speaker 2: and will last a lot longer than that one terrorist group.
- 1:28:14Speaker 2: This is a country of 90 million people. So in
- 1:28:16Speaker 2: the final 60 seconds, President Trump says, look, once we're
- 1:28:21Speaker 2: past the midterms, it's a whole other story, we're going
- 1:28:24Speaker 2: to consider annihilating Iran. People get upset they hear that word.
- 1:28:28Speaker 2: I don't, but people do. What do you think he'll
- 1:28:30Speaker 2: do after the midterms?
- 1:28:31Speaker 14: I mean, Iran has so misjudged President Trump the whole
- 1:28:34Speaker 14: way along. And so now they think, ha, ha, ha, well,
- 1:28:37Speaker 14: we're going to really pressure Donald Trump because he can
- 1:28:39Speaker 14: be so nervous about them. He's going to bend to us.
- 1:28:42Speaker 14: What they don't realize is that they're now cornered rats.
- 1:28:44Speaker 14: What happens before the midterms? It's baked into a cake.
- 1:28:48Speaker 14: If they give Donald Trump a deal that we can
- 1:28:50Speaker 14: live with, fine. If they don't, fine, because after the midterms,
- 1:28:54Speaker 14: there will be no hesitation on President Trump's part, and
- 1:28:57Speaker 14: he will probably be joined now by Israel and the
- 1:29:00Speaker 14: Gulf Arabs to go after Iran in a significant way,
- 1:29:03Speaker 14: whether Trump wins the midterms, whether Trump loses the midterms.
- 1:29:06Speaker 14: Iran's negotiating ability with Trump vanishes and dissipates on the
- 1:29:11Speaker 14: night of the election.
- 1:29:13Speaker 2: KT McFarlane, you're amazing every week. You really are. I
- 1:29:16Speaker 2: know you do all the shows on this station, John,

- 1:29:28Speaker 2: and they don't come much better than her. What a
- 1:29:30Speaker 2: brilliant lady, KT. A lot more to do, more big
- 1:29:34Speaker 2: guests to come your way. Joseph Takapina, he will delve
- 1:29:37Speaker 2: into the legal questions about this Cornell story. Laura Loomer,
- 1:29:41Speaker 2: she broke the news about Mamdani getting the national clearance.
- 1:29:46Speaker 2: She was very upset about that. She's still upset about
- 1:29:48Speaker 2: the Trump-Mamdani-Gracie Manchin meeting, and she's right. And then we
- 1:29:52Speaker 2: will talk live in studio to the star, writer, creator, director,
- 1:29:57Speaker 2: producer of Gravesend. Number one right now on Amazon Prime. Folks,
- 1:30:03Speaker 2: it's number one by a mile. William DeMayo. All that
- 1:30:07Speaker 2: still to come.
- 1:30:09Speaker 12: Sid and Friends in the Morning on the Red Apple
- 1:30:12Speaker 12: Podcast Network.
- 1:30:15Speaker 2: Listen, wait a second, wait a second. How old is
- 1:30:19Speaker 2: Rutherford today?
- 1:30:20Speaker 22: He is close to Sting's age.
- 1:30:21Speaker 2: He's 76.
- 1:30:23Speaker 11: 76.
- 1:30:23Speaker 2: Happy birthday, Mike.
- 1:30:24Speaker 11: Okay, quick.
- 1:30:24Speaker 2: I want to make a call. I've got Joseph Takapina.
- 1:30:27Speaker 2: I've got Laurel Loomer. I've got Willie DeMayo. But I'm
- 1:30:30Speaker 2: going to call a friend. What was that– What was
- 1:30:33Speaker 2: that show, that game show with Regis Philbin? Then they
- 1:30:36Speaker 2: used a chick from MBSO, Meredith Vieira.
- 1:30:38Speaker 22: Who wants to be a millionaire?
- 1:30:40Speaker 2: Who wants to be a millionaire? You get to call
- 1:30:41Speaker 2: a friend. So let's call a friend here. I'll tell
- 1:30:43Speaker 2: you why in a moment. Justin, go ahead. You got
- 1:30:46Speaker 2: my friend's number?
- 1:30:47Speaker 11: Justin? Okay.
- 1:30:48Speaker 2: Justin is calling a friend. Then we'll get to Joe Tacopina,
- 1:30:51Speaker 2: Laura Loomer, and Willie DeMayo. Calling a friend here. And
- 1:30:56Speaker 2: this friend of mine, is a very, very popular guy
- 1:31:00Speaker 2: in New York. The question is, will he pick up?
- 1:31:05Speaker 2: We don't know that yet. Is he on hold? Okay.
- 1:31:11Speaker 2: I dialed this guy cold. He has no idea I'm
- 1:31:14Speaker 2: even calling him. And he's gone. No, he's there, right?
- 1:31:20Speaker 2: I can't tell. We lost him.
- 1:31:23Speaker 5: Let's try.
- 1:31:24Speaker 2: Try it from there, Lewis. Now we lost Joe Tacopino.
- 1:31:27Speaker 2: We lost everybody. Now we lost all the lines. We're
- 1:31:30Speaker 2: looking forward to talking to Takapina today because of this
- 1:31:32Speaker 2: Cornell story. So we can get to this guy right now?
- 1:31:36Speaker 2: Is this working, Justin? Okay. No, it's not working. We
- 1:31:42Speaker 2: were trying to call the Nassau County Executive. My dear friend,
- 1:31:49Speaker 2: voting for governor here in New York because I was
- 1:31:53Speaker 2: alerted a little while ago that today is Bruce Blateman's birthday. Well,
- 1:31:59Speaker 2: how about that, Louis? It's crazy.
- 1:32:01Speaker 5: He's not 75.
- 1:32:02Speaker 2: He's not 76.
- 1:32:03Speaker 21: Bruce! Hey, Sid, how are you?
- 1:32:09Speaker 2: I'm calling you with the rest of my staff to
- 1:32:13Speaker 2: wish you the happiest and healthiest of birthdays. John McLaughlin
- 1:32:18Speaker 2: texted me. He said, do you know it's your friend
- 1:32:20Speaker 2: Bruce Blakeman's birthday? So now everybody knows. Happy birthday, Bruce.
- 1:32:26Speaker 21: Well, thank you so much. That's very nice of you,
- 1:32:28Speaker 21: very special. And I'm going to spend the day doing
- 1:32:33Speaker 21: what I do every day on a mission to save
- 1:32:36Speaker 21: our state.
- 1:32:37Speaker 2: But you got to do something for yourself later. Dinner
- 1:32:39Speaker 2: or something. I mean, Victor McCormack, somebody taking you for dinner?
- 1:32:42Speaker 21: No, no. I'll have a little dinner later today after
- 1:32:48Speaker 21: all my campaign stops. And it'll be great. Yesterday I
- 1:32:53Speaker 21: had about nine stops. We had a terrific day. Our
- 1:32:56Speaker 21: fundraising is great. And the enthusiasm out there is really
- 1:33:02Speaker 21: off the charts. So we're doing great.
- 1:33:04Speaker 2: I know you are. Last one, it was reported yesterday.
- 1:33:08Speaker 2: I already reached out to you and you said it
- 1:33:10Speaker 2: wouldn't be the same without you. I'm being serious. I
- 1:33:12Speaker 2: want to be there. October 9th, Blakeman and Trump in Syracuse.
- 1:33:16Speaker 2: That's a big one.
- 1:33:18Speaker 21: Yeah, I mean, so far, that's the rumor. It hasn't
- 1:33:23Speaker 21: been confirmed yet by the White House, but We're told
- 1:33:27Speaker 21: that they are looking at doing a rally in Syracuse,
- 1:33:31Speaker 21: which is a great location. It's central to all of
- 1:33:34Speaker 21: upstate New York. So, yeah, that'll be exciting. And, of course,
- 1:33:39Speaker 21: you'll come up and we'll have a good time together.
- 1:33:42Speaker 2: Can't wait. We really do want to wish you the
- 1:33:44Speaker 2: happiest of birthdays, Bruce. You're not just an amazing politician,
- 1:33:47Speaker 2: but really one of my favorite people. You're like a
- 1:33:49Speaker 2: brother to me. So happy and healthy birthday. And while
- 1:33:52Speaker 2: you're working today, enjoy.
- 1:33:53Speaker 11: Yourself, OK?
- 1:33:54Speaker 21: God bless you, thank you, and I really appreciate it.
- 1:33:57Speaker 2: You got it. I love you. Bruce Blakeman right there,
- 1:33:59Speaker 2: Nassau County Executive, soon to be governor and go on
- 1:34:02Speaker 2: social media and bomb him with happy birthday wishes.
- 1:34:06Speaker 12: Sid and friends in the morning on the Red Apple
- 1:34:09Speaker 12: Podcast Network.
- 1:34:11Speaker 2: The great Joseph Takapina. And a lot of my listeners
- 1:34:15Speaker 2: have reached out to the show today, Joseph, to say
- 1:34:17Speaker 2: they can't wait to hear from you because you're an attorney.
- 1:34:20Speaker 2: If you've not been listening, I made it very clear
- 1:34:22Speaker 2: this morning. I'm not giving these boys at Cornell University
- 1:34:26Speaker 2: the electric chair yet. I don't know enough. I don't
- 1:34:29Speaker 2: know enough. But as a father of a daughter, you
- 1:34:32Speaker 2: are as well. You've got two beautiful grandsons in England, okay?
- 1:34:36Speaker 2: If you're telling me by the second or the third
- 1:34:38Speaker 2: or the fourth.
- 1:34:39Speaker 25: Guy out of seven didn't realize, especially if she couldn't move,
- 1:34:46Speaker 25: if she was laying like a dead body, they didn't
- 1:34:49Speaker 25: realize what they were doing wasn't morally reprehensible.
- 1:34:54Speaker 2: Then forget about the criminal aspect. Then these guys really,
- 1:34:59Speaker 2: really are sick people. So again, criminally, you'll talk about that.
- 1:35:03Speaker 2: I won't. But as a father of a daughter and
- 1:35:05Speaker 2: a son, my beautiful son. What those boys did, whether
- 1:35:09Speaker 2: criminal or not, was disgusting. Are you going.
- 1:35:13Speaker 11: To argue that? I'll argue that you're right. Never argue
- 1:35:17Speaker 11: against that. It's their cowards. They're animals. I mean, anyone
- 1:35:20Speaker 11: who could do that to a young lady in a
- 1:35:24Speaker 11: state of quasi-incapacitation because there's no question. Look, if there's
- 1:35:29Speaker 11: an issue, she consented to have sex with the first
- 1:35:31Speaker 11: two guys. Fine. Whatever. That does not then say anyone
- 1:35:36Speaker 11: else who wants to come on in and join, the
- 1:35:39Speaker 11: free-for-all gets to come in. Each and every individual act
- 1:35:42Speaker 11: after that, that is not consented to. And if, by
- 1:35:44Speaker 11: the way, if she is so intoxicated or so inebriated,
- 1:35:47Speaker 11: so unable to grant consent, They don't just need to
- 1:35:53Speaker 11: say no. It is no, and therefore, you're committing a crime. So, look,
- 1:35:58Speaker 11: the thing that bothers me is that this young woman
- 1:36:00Speaker 11: should not need a national media campaign to get a
- 1:36:02Speaker 11: thorough criminal investigation, right? The question is simple. What did
- 1:36:06Speaker 11: you know, investigators? When did you know it, and what
- 1:36:08Speaker 11: did you actually investigate? So it is, you know, and again,
- 1:36:12Speaker 11: consent to one encounter, Sid, is not consent to everyone
- 1:36:15Speaker 11: who walks in the room thereafter. And that's what it
- 1:36:17Speaker 11: seems like you have here. And I base that on
- 1:36:20Speaker 11: one thing, some irrefutable evidence, a group text message, right?
- 1:36:24Speaker 11: The one that talked about, you know, free whatever.
- 1:36:27Speaker 2: Free sex. Free sex, yeah.
- 1:36:29Speaker 11: Free sex. Let's put it that way. Free sex. And,
- 1:36:32Speaker 11: you know, is it still open? Yes. Come on in. And,
- 1:36:34Speaker 11: you know, it's like. First of all, this is Cornell University.
- 1:36:38Speaker 11: I don't think you and I would have gotten into
- 1:36:40Speaker 11: Cornell University.
- 1:36:41Speaker 2: No chance.
- 1:36:41Speaker 11: It's an Ivy League school, right? You would think they
- 1:36:45Speaker 11: act like they're in community college, these idiots. I mean,
- 1:36:47Speaker 11: how stupid do you have to be to memorialize something
- 1:36:51Speaker 11: like that? Even just a level of raw stupidity, repulsive unintelligence, right?
- 1:36:57Speaker 11: It's horrific. But we now have to do an investigation,
- 1:37:00Speaker 11: a real investigation. Now, of course, the problem with doing
- 1:37:03Speaker 11: a real investigation is You know, I represent the President Trump.
- 1:37:07Speaker 11: So I know Letitia James. I know firsthand that she
- 1:37:13Speaker 11: has absolutely no credibility, especially when it comes to high
- 1:37:17Speaker 11: profile cases where she has a political agenda. Of all
- 1:37:20Speaker 11: the people in the world that Governor Hochul needed to appoint,
- 1:37:25Speaker 11: if she needed to appoint the special prosecutor, Why would
- 1:37:29Speaker 11: it be Letitia James?
- 1:37:31Speaker 2: Because they're great buddies. Because they're great friends. And Letitia's
- 1:37:33Speaker 2: running against my friend Sir Ritter. That's why.
- 1:37:36Speaker 11: Except here's the problem. Letitia James has never, never... prosecuted
- 1:37:41Speaker 11: a criminal case before she was attorney general, and she's
- 1:37:45Speaker 11: prosecuted a few. Attorney general's main job is not ever
- 1:37:48Speaker 11: and rarely do you see AG's offices prosecuting criminal cases,
- 1:37:52Speaker 11: especially of this magnitude. This belongs to a district attorney's office.
- 1:37:55Speaker 11: I've never seen an AG prosecute rape charges, but yet
- 1:37:59Speaker 11: she's now appointed special prosecutor. She has no experienced to
- 1:38:03Speaker 11: do these type of cases, and more importantly, she's a
- 1:38:05Speaker 11: political hack. So, you know, Hochul says she wants to
- 1:38:08Speaker 11: restore public confidence, right? So choosing a prosecutor whose impartiality
- 1:38:12Speaker 11: so many people question is really a poor way to
- 1:38:15Speaker 11: achieve that.
- 1:38:16Speaker 2: Well said. That is a great job, Joe Takapina. So
- 1:38:19Speaker 2: well said. So, from your standpoint, again, being the best
- 1:38:22Speaker 2: defense attorney in the world, these cases, like we know
- 1:38:25Speaker 2: the Duke case, it turned out the guys were not guilty, Virginia.
- 1:38:28Speaker 21: Yeah.
- 1:38:29Speaker 11: Be careful. Right.
- 1:38:30Speaker 2: Do you think then, and let me say it again, criminally,
- 1:38:34Speaker 2: these kids may be innocent. Morally, they should be ashamed
- 1:38:37Speaker 2: of themselves, every one of them, and their parents should
- 1:38:39Speaker 2: kick their asses. But do you think from an attorney standpoint,
- 1:38:43Speaker 2: this specific case, it's easier to prove the defense or
- 1:38:49Speaker 2: the prosecution?
- 1:38:50Speaker 11: Well, here's what I think. Now that we have Letitia
- 1:38:52Speaker 11: James involved, I can tell you right now that it's
- 1:38:56Speaker 11: now more likely than not there'll be criminal charges, okay?
- 1:38:59Speaker 11: You know, what she should do is judge the evidence
- 1:39:02Speaker 11: as she gathers it, expand herself for investigation, the decisions
- 1:39:05Speaker 11: she makes need to be consistent with the evidence under law.
- 1:39:08Speaker 11: You know, honestly, her public promises, that little statement she made,
- 1:39:13Speaker 11: mean absolutely nothing to me. And it shouldn't mean anything
- 1:39:14Speaker 11: to anyone because we've seen what she's done. I mean,
- 1:39:17Speaker 11: this is a woman who before she came into office
- 1:39:19Speaker 11: as Attorney General said, She was going to prosecute Trump.
- 1:39:23Speaker 11: And I asked the question again, how did she know?
- 1:39:25Speaker 11: How did she know she was going to prosecute Trump?
- 1:39:27Speaker 11: She was a public citizen, a private citizen. She was
- 1:39:30Speaker 11: not an attorney general. She didn't have access to subpoena
- 1:39:32Speaker 11: power and all these records. But it didn't matter. She
- 1:39:36Speaker 11: made the stupidest statement I've ever heard, which is the
- 1:39:38Speaker 11: most revealing about her abilities, her character, and her lack
- 1:39:41Speaker 11: of impartialness. I'm going to prosecute Trump before she was 18.
- 1:39:45Speaker 11: So this woman deserves answers. She really does, this young woman.
- 1:39:49Speaker 11: But also everyone accused deserves due process, right? And I
- 1:39:52Speaker 11: just don't trust Hochul and James to keep politics out
- 1:39:55Speaker 11: of that equation. And that's sad because this case really
- 1:39:58Speaker 11: has to be investigated in a way that is free
- 1:40:03Speaker 11: from pressure, free from media pressure, free from outside biases,
- 1:40:06Speaker 11: and free from any political nonsense that we're going to have.
- 1:40:09Speaker 2: And do you believe, Joseph, that this poor girl... They
- 1:40:13Speaker 2: released her name? How does that happen?
- 1:40:17Speaker 11: You know, that's a really, really good question, Sid, because
- 1:40:19Speaker 11: the law says it's not supposed to happen. And, you know,
- 1:40:23Speaker 11: I'd like to know who's responsible for that leak. But,
- 1:40:26Speaker 11: you know, look, she filed a lawsuit, right? And, you know,
- 1:40:30Speaker 11: she filed it with Jane Doe. But, you know, once
- 1:40:32Speaker 11: you do that, once you go down that road, you
- 1:40:35Speaker 11: do open up. lawsuit, she should have gone to the police,
- 1:40:39Speaker 11: which she did. She went to the university police, right? Which,
- 1:40:42Speaker 11: you know, investigated it. Apparently there were some inconsistent statements,
- 1:40:45Speaker 11: but one thing she said, according to that transcript that
- 1:40:48Speaker 11: I've read, is that I was raped, period. So once
- 1:40:51Speaker 11: someone says that, you're duty bound to investigate it. By
- 1:40:54Speaker 11: the way, because she said it, it also doesn't mean
- 1:40:56Speaker 11: it's true, right? I mean, I've had a lot of
- 1:40:58Speaker 11: cases where, you know, People on the other side, the accused,
- 1:41:02Speaker 11: have been falsely accused. Of course. Of course.
- 1:41:05Speaker 2: We had it with Duke.
- 1:41:06Speaker 11: It's horrific, right?
- 1:41:07Speaker 2: We had it with Duke, with the Duke lacrosse team. Right.
- 1:41:10Speaker 11: Of course. Right. So how about the one, what's the
- 1:41:13Speaker 11: cop that Thornton was involved in? Remember that, Tawana Broly? Yeah.
- 1:41:18Speaker 11: You know, that was a woman who absolutely just made
- 1:41:21Speaker 11: up and destroyed the life of a police officer completely
- 1:41:26Speaker 11: by making up a false allegation. So you have to
- 1:41:28Speaker 11: be careful with these type of cases. And it just
- 1:41:30Speaker 11: demands a prosecutor's independence and inspires trust. And this is
- 1:41:34Speaker 11: the one that Kathy Hochul picked. I mean, she's been
- 1:41:37Speaker 11: indicted as prosecutor. She's been accused of playing all sorts
- 1:41:42Speaker 11: of political games. She seems to be highly incompetent, especially
- 1:41:46Speaker 11: in the criminal arena. And she's someone with a political agenda.
- 1:41:50Speaker 11: That's the wrong person.
- 1:41:51Speaker 2: Wrong person.
- 1:41:52Speaker 11: Yeah.
- 1:41:52Speaker 2: A hundred percent. Oh, shot. Yeah. So now, but the defense, look,
- 1:41:58Speaker 2: let's make it as simple as possible because it gets
- 1:42:01Speaker 2: very detailed. These cases, you know, if she was incapacitated, okay.
- 1:42:07Speaker 2: She claims she was forced to do drugs, forced to drink.
- 1:42:10Speaker 2: I don't know. I, I went to rehab twice. I'm
- 1:42:12Speaker 2: not proud of it, but, forced to do drugs and
- 1:42:14Speaker 2: forced to drink sounds like a bit much. But either way,
- 1:42:18Speaker 2: when she ends up in a state where she really
- 1:42:21Speaker 2: can't fight back or defend herself or even think properly,
- 1:42:25Speaker 2: if the defense is able to prove that she was
- 1:42:29Speaker 2: incapacitated at that point, in my opinion, that makes it
- 1:42:33Speaker 2: a very long day for the prosecution, no?
- 1:42:36Speaker 10: No.
- 1:42:38Speaker 11: To the contrary, actually said legally, that's that's to the contrary.
- 1:42:41Speaker 17: Wow.
- 1:42:42Speaker 11: The defense would never want to prove she's incapacitated because
- 1:42:45Speaker 11: once someone is incapacitated, they are no longer legally able
- 1:42:49Speaker 11: to give consent. OK, so if you're incapacitated, you blacked
- 1:42:53Speaker 11: out or you and you can't give consent, you can
- 1:42:57Speaker 11: if someone then has sex with you, it's called rape.
- 1:43:00Speaker 2: No, right. I actually mixed up defense and prosecution.
- 1:43:03Speaker 14: Right.
- 1:43:03Speaker 2: I'm saying that the girls' attorneys, if they can prove
- 1:43:06Speaker 2: she was incapacitated, then their case is strong.
- 1:43:14Speaker 11: Very strong. I mean, that's where this is going to
- 1:43:16Speaker 11: fall on, right? I mean, I don't think this is not,
- 1:43:19Speaker 11: I don't see an allegation where someone dragged her in
- 1:43:21Speaker 11: a closet and forced her to have sex, right? This
- 1:43:24Speaker 11: is about, she started out, she was a little banged
- 1:43:26Speaker 11: up to begin with, started out with a consensual, you know,
- 1:43:29Speaker 11: encounter with one or two guys, maybe. And then, you know,
- 1:43:33Speaker 11: those guys thought it would be really funny to let
- 1:43:34Speaker 11: everybody in the fraternity, you know, come inside and have fun.
- 1:43:39Speaker 11: That's One, you're right, it's morally reprehensible. I mean, those
- 1:43:42Speaker 11: parents should be disgustingly ashamed, and those kids should have
- 1:43:45Speaker 11: their teeth knocked out. Putting that aside, putting that aside,
- 1:43:49Speaker 11: if you see that someone is now becoming out of it,
- 1:43:53Speaker 11: either physically, mentally exhausted, and can't really articulate, or is drunk,
- 1:43:58Speaker 11: or is passing out, you need to run away. Tell
- 1:44:02Speaker 11: that to all your listeners, sons, and, you know, if
- 1:44:05Speaker 11: anyone exhibits any sign of intoxication, The safe route here, guys,
- 1:44:10Speaker 11: is bye-bye. Just leave. See you.
- 1:44:12Speaker 2: Go the other way.
- 1:44:13Speaker 11: Exactly right. Because you then could later be accused of
- 1:44:16Speaker 11: not getting consent because consent is not capable of being
- 1:44:19Speaker 11: given by someone who's incapacitated. Really?
- 1:44:22Speaker 2: That simple?
- 1:44:22Speaker 11: So if they can prove that, it's over.
- 1:44:25Speaker 2: Yeah. Well, there are videos. And also, you mentioned the
- 1:44:28Speaker 2: Snapchat conversation where the guys were pretty much saying that Yeah,
- 1:44:33Speaker 2: free sex, go in there, do your thing. So it
- 1:44:36Speaker 2: does seem to be, I don't know how much of
- 1:44:37Speaker 2: that stuff is admissible. You know better than me.
- 1:44:39Speaker 11: Oh, no, it's completely admissible. I mean, that stuff is admissible.
- 1:44:43Speaker 11: Here's what's going to, you know, be really the factor
- 1:44:47Speaker 11: that that turns on. It's going to turn on who
- 1:44:50Speaker 11: got it. who read it, who acted on it, what
- 1:44:53Speaker 11: they actually did. So, you know, you have to authenticate it.
- 1:44:56Speaker 11: You have to establish who sent it. You have to
- 1:44:58Speaker 11: establish who received it and who responded to it and
- 1:45:01Speaker 11: what each person did afterwards. You have to follow the
- 1:45:03Speaker 11: evidence individually against each one of these guys. That's what
- 1:45:06Speaker 11: you do with that. First of all, let's make sure
- 1:45:08Speaker 11: it's real, right? You have to authenticate it. And so,
- 1:45:12Speaker 11: you know, an independent prosecutor needs the full recordings, the
- 1:45:15Speaker 11: full transcripts, all these messages and witness accounts, not just
- 1:45:18Speaker 11: a summary, not just a summary of what's out there.
- 1:45:21Speaker 11: And again, you know, when I heard Letitia James, my
- 1:45:24Speaker 11: heart dropped a little bit from both sides because I
- 1:45:27Speaker 11: don't know really the truth at bottom. I just don't.
- 1:45:31Speaker 11: I don't like those messages. Disgusting. OK. And like you said,
- 1:45:34Speaker 11: forget criminality, morally reprehensible. But putting that aside. I don't know.
- 1:45:40Speaker 11: You know, we weren't there. So we have to let
- 1:45:42Speaker 11: the investigation run its course.
- 1:45:43Speaker 2: Of course.
- 1:45:44Speaker 11: A fact finder who hears all the evidence that's called
- 1:45:46Speaker 11: a jury normally, you know, make a determination as to
- 1:45:50Speaker 11: what happened. You know, until then, it's hard to say,
- 1:45:54Speaker 11: but it's just it's some of the stuff was really,
- 1:45:57Speaker 11: really bad.
- 1:45:57Speaker 2: Gross.
- 1:45:58Speaker 11: Yeah, that's bad.
- 1:45:59Speaker 2: That's gross.
- 1:46:02Speaker 11: That clearly would be rape, by the way. If someone
- 1:46:04Speaker 11: just walked in the room and whipped it out and
- 1:46:07Speaker 11: had sex with someone who was there lying there, that's rape.
- 1:46:10Speaker 2: That's rape, bottom line. Right. There's no consent.
- 1:46:12Speaker 11: That's it. Period.
- 1:46:13Speaker 2: That's rape. I do want to ask you one thing
- 1:46:15Speaker 2: about Lindsay Clancy, Tack. Her attorneys made a motion for acquittal. Shocker, shocker,
- 1:46:22Speaker 2: it was denied, but they tried it. I guess you
- 1:46:25Speaker 2: got to try everything, right?
- 1:46:27Speaker 11: Yeah, of course. I mean, well, let's try everything within reason.
- 1:46:30Speaker 11: You don't want to look like a fool or an idiot,
- 1:46:32Speaker 11: and you don't want to do something that's not going
- 1:46:33Speaker 11: to only be successful but could actually hurt your cause
- 1:46:36Speaker 11: and your credibility, right? I mean, a motion for a
- 1:46:38Speaker 11: new trial is standard. That's not something that, you know,
- 1:46:42Speaker 11: we as lawyers, when we make it, we don't make
- 1:46:44Speaker 11: it thinking this is going to be it, we're going
- 1:46:46Speaker 11: to win, you know, it's going to be. No, of
- 1:46:47Speaker 11: course not. But, you know, the judge yesterday, Judge Sullivan,
- 1:46:50Speaker 11: denied the defense's request for a not guilty finding. You know,
- 1:46:54Speaker 11: ruling that prosecutors presented sufficient evidence for a jury to
- 1:46:57Speaker 11: decide guilt and criminal responsibility. So, you know, the murder
- 1:47:01Speaker 11: charges remain pending. That's not a surprise. What would have
- 1:47:06Speaker 11: been a shock is if the judge actually granted the motion,
- 1:47:08Speaker 11: said yes. You know, I mean, clearly that's not the case.
- 1:47:11Speaker 11: It never happens that way. A judge doesn't take it
- 1:47:13Speaker 11: out of the hands of the jury. This is a
- 1:47:14Speaker 11: motion that you have to make to protect the record
- 1:47:17Speaker 11: for appeal. That's all that was.
- 1:47:20Speaker 2: And finally, the biggest story of all. I think you'll
- 1:47:23Speaker 2: agree with this, Joseph. For the first time ever in
- 1:47:27Speaker 2: the history, the long history of the New York Hockey Rangers,
- 1:47:35Speaker 2: the goalie scored a goal.
- 1:47:38Speaker 11: Greatest goalie of all time finally scored a goal.
- 1:47:40Speaker 2: I get a text from Takapina. First of all, this
- 1:47:43Speaker 2: guy Takapina is the real deal, okay? Not only is
- 1:47:45Speaker 2: he the best defense attorney in the world, he is
- 1:47:48Speaker 2: a true patriot.
- 1:47:49Speaker 11: He is.
- 1:47:49Speaker 2: He often comes on, talks about the army, talks about
- 1:47:52Speaker 2: the generals, talks about Iran. This guy can shoot a
- 1:47:56Speaker 2: gun like nobody you've ever seen. This guy's a sniper.
- 1:47:59Speaker 2: I mean, this guy, you're unbelievable. So I get all
- 1:48:02Speaker 2: these amazing pictures and I got to say, I'm very,
- 1:48:05Speaker 2: very proud of you. Very proud of you. And then
- 1:48:07Speaker 2: you go on to tell me that Chesterkin is the
- 1:48:09Speaker 2: best goalie in the world. So you lose all credibility
- 1:48:12Speaker 2: at that point. But I know you were excited that
- 1:48:14Speaker 2: he scored a goal, weren't you?
- 1:48:17Speaker 11: Oh, my God. Oh, my God. I was so excited.
- 1:48:19Speaker 11: I mean, I was in. South Carolina with two of
- 1:48:22Speaker 11: the greatest shooters in our country, Dan Horner and Delta
- 1:48:24Speaker 11: Force sniper Seth Grace. And we were doing stuff so
- 1:48:28Speaker 11: I didn't get to see the game. But I saw
- 1:48:30Speaker 11: that highlight and I let out a yelp. That was
- 1:48:33Speaker 11: so incredible. And I think they thought I shot myself
- 1:48:37Speaker 11: in the foot or something.
- 1:48:38Speaker 2: A little Plexiglas situation.
- 1:48:41Speaker 11: Oh, my God. It was unbelievable. And by the way,
- 1:48:43Speaker 11: we could save this for another day. But, you know,
- 1:48:45Speaker 11: last year, you know, there was only one goalie in
- 1:48:47Speaker 11: the NHL who had the highest save percentage in hockey.
- 1:48:51Speaker 11: Do you know who that was?
- 1:48:52Speaker 2: I'm going to go with Shostakovich.
- 1:48:55Speaker 11: You got it. That's it. So even though he does
- 1:48:58Speaker 11: have the one, I think, with the Chris Drury-built teams
- 1:49:00Speaker 11: to lose, that's not his fault. He's the greatest goalie.
- 1:49:03Speaker 11: It's like saying, I don't know, who's the best? Ernie Banks. Right? Greatest, greatest,
- 1:49:08Speaker 11: one of the greatest shortstops ever. Never won anything. Give
- 1:49:11Speaker 11: me another player. Dan Marino. One of the greatest quarterbacks ever.
- 1:49:13Speaker 11: Never won anything.
- 1:49:14Speaker 19: Yeah.
- 1:49:14Speaker 11: That's not Dan Marino's fault.
- 1:49:15Speaker 20: No, no, no.
- 1:49:16Speaker 2: He was, you know, there's a lot of guys like that.
- 1:49:18Speaker 2: Charles Barkley, Patrick Ewing. A lot of guys that were
- 1:49:21Speaker 2: great enough to win championships, but like you said, it's
- 1:49:23Speaker 2: not a one-man sport. It's not tennis or golf. So,
- 1:49:26Speaker 2: They build a bad team around them. I think Shusterkin
- 1:49:28Speaker 2: is great. I really do. But I reserve the all-time
- 1:49:31Speaker 2: greats for the guys that can win. His team could
- 1:49:34Speaker 2: have won two years ago. He wasn't great in those playoffs.
- 1:49:37Speaker 2: He wasn't terrible, but he wasn't great. I've seen Patrick Waugh,
- 1:49:41Speaker 2: even John Van Biesbroek, stand on their head. There were
- 1:49:44Speaker 2: a couple of Carolina goals a couple years ago. You
- 1:49:46Speaker 2: don't give those goals up. So I'm still reserving judgment.
- 1:49:50Speaker 2: That's all. That's all.
- 1:49:51Speaker 21: Okay, that's fair.
- 1:49:53Speaker 11: I mean, we beat Carolina a couple years ago, just
- 1:49:55Speaker 11: so you know. You're talking about Florida, the Panthers, because
- 1:49:58Speaker 11: we lost to the Panthers.
- 1:49:59Speaker 2: No, no, no. We beat them because Chris Kreider had
- 1:50:01Speaker 2: one sick period, but we never should have gotten to
- 1:50:03Speaker 2: a Game 7.
- 1:50:04Speaker 11: Very good.
- 1:50:04Speaker 2: Yeah. At any rate, he is great, but I got
- 1:50:07Speaker 2: to tell you seriously, those pictures, man, I wish everybody
- 1:50:11Speaker 2: can see. How much you love this country.
- 1:50:13Speaker 11: What you're referring to, Sid, is the pictures yesterday when
- 1:50:15Speaker 11: I was shooting with these Salesforce guys and with Dan Warner,
- 1:50:19Speaker 11: who's the number one marksman in the world, by the way,
- 1:50:20Speaker 11: just won a national competition. Wow. And is like a
- 1:50:23Speaker 11: brother to me. He's the greatest guy. They have this
- 1:50:26Speaker 11: facility down in South Carolina where we're doing marksmanship drills
- 1:50:30Speaker 11: and marksmanship competitions. That's called sniping. And, yeah, I was
- 1:50:33Speaker 11: hitting some 800-foot shots. I sent you videos of it.
- 1:50:36Speaker 21: Jeez, I saw.
- 1:50:37Speaker 11: It was unbelievable. But I had the best teachers in
- 1:50:39Speaker 11: the world, so let me not, you know.
- 1:50:40Speaker 2: I know the teachers are great, but you've got to be,
- 1:50:43Speaker 2: you're a talented guy.
- 1:50:43Speaker 11: On top of that, please. We had some fun last night.
- 1:50:46Speaker 11: They were like, when did you become a professional sniper?
- 1:50:51Speaker 11: I worked on it hard, and these guys are amazing.
- 1:50:53Speaker 11: But they're the best of the best. I mean, Dan Horner,
- 1:50:55Speaker 11: oh my God. That guy could shoot with his eyes
- 1:50:57Speaker 11: closed and hit something a mile away. Seth Grace, another
- 1:51:01Speaker 11: Delta Force sniper. I mean, it's just, it's amazing to
- 1:51:03Speaker 11: be able to, it's an honor to be able to
- 1:51:05Speaker 11: be around these guys and shoot with them.
- 1:51:06Speaker 2: Well, I'm honored to talk to you. I love you
- 1:51:08Speaker 2: so much. Friends for 49 years, but man, you are
- 1:51:10Speaker 2: great at everything. Joseph Takapina, another amazing, amazing appearance. Really,
- 1:51:14Speaker 2: the Cornell stop was A +. All of it was.
- 1:51:17Speaker 2: Thank you so much, pal. We'll do it again very soon.
- 1:51:19Speaker 11: Okay, my brother.
- 1:51:20Speaker 2: I love you. Joseph Takapina right there. What a tremendous appearance.
- 1:51:24Speaker 2: We'll take a short break. Sid and Friends.
- 1:51:27Speaker 3: In the Morning on the Red Apple Podcast Network.
- 1:51:31Speaker 2: So, Laura Loomer is one of my good friends. I
- 1:51:36Speaker 2: got this female crew that my crew, you know, it's
- 1:51:38Speaker 2: Siggy Flick or Stella Escobedo and the girl from Jexit,
- 1:51:42Speaker 2: Michelle Terrace and Brigitte Gabriel and Attila Falick, a whole
- 1:51:46Speaker 2: bunch of them. But Loomer, I love this girl. She's just,
- 1:51:50Speaker 2: she is worried about the same things I am and
- 1:51:54Speaker 2: most Americans are. And she gets information before anyone. So
- 1:51:57Speaker 2: a couple of days ago, she's the one who told
- 1:52:00Speaker 2: me then on Twitter that that Mayor Mamdani, the jihadist,
- 1:52:04Speaker 2: radical Islam terrorist mayor, had just received, finally, after nine months,
- 1:52:10Speaker 2: his security clearance to get all the information that the FBI,
- 1:52:15Speaker 2: the CIA, all these people have. And it was only
- 1:52:20Speaker 2: eight days after President Trump was at Gracie Mansion. But
- 1:52:22Speaker 2: let me just say this, and Laura will come in
- 1:52:24Speaker 2: a moment. This may make you feel a little better.
- 1:52:27Speaker 2: People like KT McFarland and Peter King, the former great
- 1:52:31Speaker 2: congressman on this show this week, Laura, said to me, look,
- 1:52:35Speaker 2: we don't love it, but, but, he is the mayor
- 1:52:38Speaker 2: of New York City, we get the most terrorist threats,
- 1:52:41Speaker 2: and there are many different levels when it comes to
- 1:52:45Speaker 2: national clearance. So, he may have gotten the very lowest
- 1:52:50Speaker 2: of all the levels of And he's only updated on
- 1:52:53Speaker 2: what's happening in this city. In other words, there are
- 1:52:56Speaker 2: different levels where only four or five people in the
- 1:52:59Speaker 2: whole world know what's going on. Maybe Trump, Rubio, Hexeth,
- 1:53:02Speaker 2: I don't know. Does it make you feel any better
- 1:53:05Speaker 2: knowing that maybe Mamdani got the lowest possible level of
- 1:53:10Speaker 2: national security clearance?
- 1:53:14Speaker 17: Thanks so much for having me on. No, it doesn't
- 1:53:16Speaker 17: make me feel good at all, because why you say
- 1:53:19Speaker 17: he's the mayor of New York City and, you know,
- 1:53:22Speaker 17: some people argue that he needs to have clearance because
- 1:53:24Speaker 17: New York City has the highest rate or the highest
- 1:53:26Speaker 17: threat level when it comes to cities facing threats of terror. Well,
- 1:53:31Speaker 17: who are the people carrying out the terrorism?
- 1:53:33Speaker 2: Right.
- 1:53:33Speaker 17: It's not the Jews.
- 1:53:34Speaker 11: Right.
- 1:53:34Speaker 17: As we saw this week, it's the Muslims. And so
- 1:53:38Speaker 17: there's a reason why we don't want Mamdami having a
- 1:53:41Speaker 17: security clearance. And it's because he sympathizes with and he
- 1:53:45Speaker 17: openly campaigned with the people who are affiliated with the
- 1:53:49Speaker 17: terror threats New York City has been facing. a conspiracy theory.
- 1:53:54Speaker 17: This isn't conjecture. He campaigned with Siraj Wahaj, if you recall,
- 1:53:59Speaker 17: who's the imam in New York City. He's a 1993
- 1:54:02Speaker 17: World Trade Center bombing co-conspirator. And this is a guy
- 1:54:05Speaker 17: who his son is facing life in prison right now
- 1:54:09Speaker 17: because several of his children were involved in building a
- 1:54:13Speaker 17: jihadi compound in New Mexico. You can look it up.
- 1:54:16Speaker 17: where they were training children to be high school shooters,
- 1:54:19Speaker 17: to go into schools and to go into hospitals. They
- 1:54:22Speaker 17: were training children as young as seven years old how
- 1:54:26Speaker 17: to pick up a rifle, and they were planning on
- 1:54:29Speaker 17: sending these children into a hospital to go murder people.
- 1:54:33Speaker 17: I believe it was in Alabama, but the compound was
- 1:54:37Speaker 17: in New Mexico. This is who Mamdami was photographed with
- 1:54:41Speaker 17: and was campaigning with, just one week before the mayoral
- 1:54:45Speaker 17: election in New York City. So, yeah, I don't feel
- 1:54:49Speaker 17: comfortable with him having any access to any classified information.
- 1:54:55Speaker 17: Marco Rubio, the State Department, had to intervene only a
- 1:54:58Speaker 17: couple months ago because as the Iranian regime was chanting
- 1:55:02Speaker 17: death to America and putting out a multi-million dollar bounty
- 1:55:06Speaker 17: for the assassination of Donald Trump, they were planning on
- 1:55:09Speaker 17: having agents from the Iranian regime secretly meet with Zoran
- 1:55:13Speaker 17: Mamdami and his staff. And then when he got caught,
- 1:55:16Speaker 17: he said, oh, well, I didn't have anything to.
- 1:55:18Speaker 2: Do with this.
- 1:55:19Speaker 17: Well, of course, right? Of course, because Just like he
- 1:55:21Speaker 17: had no idea that his wife was on Instagram posting
- 1:55:24Speaker 17: in support of October 7th.
- 1:55:25Speaker 2: Right.
- 1:55:26Speaker 17: Where's his wife now? First lady of New York City.
- 1:55:28Speaker 17: Shouldn't she be engaged in the in the duties of
- 1:55:32Speaker 17: the first? Oh, well, she's in Portugal.
- 1:55:35Speaker 14: She's in Syria.
- 1:55:36Speaker 17: She's in Lebanon attending all these Islamic retreats where a
- 1:55:40Speaker 17: bunch of Muslim women sit around in a circle holding hands,
- 1:55:43Speaker 17: singing Kumbaya and, you know, chanting death to America and
- 1:55:46Speaker 17: how they want to wipe Israel off the face of
- 1:55:48Speaker 17: the planet. Is that what you want, having access to
- 1:55:51Speaker 17: classified information? No, no. I don't. I don't think it's.
- 1:55:56Speaker 17: I think it's a betrayal of our country, honestly, to
- 1:55:59Speaker 17: allow any Muslim to have access to classified information.
- 1:56:03Speaker 2: Well, you just said something that's interesting. And Randy Fine,
- 1:56:07Speaker 2: my favorite congressman down in Florida, says the same thing.
- 1:56:10Speaker 2: You didn't say any radical Muslim, any radical Islam. You
- 1:56:14Speaker 2: said any Muslim. Now, you can get hammered for that. Oh,
- 1:56:18Speaker 2: most Muslims are great people. They're great people. That may
- 1:56:20Speaker 2: be true.
- 1:56:21Speaker 17: So I mean, that's what we've been gaslit to think
- 1:56:24Speaker 17: about the United Arab Emirates. Oh, the UAE is different. Oh,
- 1:56:28Speaker 17: they're so great. And let's be honest. Look, I love
- 1:56:30Speaker 17: President Trump. I respect President Trump. You know, I'll probably
- 1:56:35Speaker 17: I'll probably see the president today in Alabama because I'm
- 1:56:38Speaker 17: going to attend the rally in Alabama where where he's
- 1:56:41Speaker 17: going to be campaigning today. I love President Trump. But
- 1:56:44Speaker 17: let's be honest. The Abraham Accords were always destined to fail,
- 1:56:48Speaker 17: not because of Donald Trump, but because Muslims don't keep
- 1:56:51Speaker 17: their word.
- 1:56:51Speaker 14: They just don't.
- 1:56:53Speaker 17: And it's a violation of the Abraham Accords and the
- 1:56:56Speaker 17: aviation treaty associated with the Abraham Accords for the Emiratis to...
- 1:57:02Speaker 17: any pilot who doesn't recognize the state of Israel to
- 1:57:06Speaker 17: fly the route to Israel. And what did we just
- 1:57:09Speaker 17: see happen this week? The Emiratis violated the Abraham Accords.
- 1:57:13Speaker 17: They violated the Abraham Accords. And how did they violate
- 1:57:16Speaker 17: the Abraham Accords? They violated the Abraham Accords by allowing
- 1:57:20Speaker 17: for an Omani pilot. We know that Israeli officials and
- 1:57:24Speaker 17: Emirati officials have confirmed that the terrorist hijacker who tried
- 1:57:27Speaker 17: to take down a plane full of Israeli Jews was Omani.
- 1:57:31Speaker 17: Oman doesn't recognize Israel's right to exist. They do not
- 1:57:34Speaker 17: have diplomatic relations with Israel. And so was this an accident?
- 1:57:38Speaker 17: Like UAE is constantly bragging about how strong their security
- 1:57:42Speaker 17: protocols are. I don't know, really, at the end of
- 1:57:44Speaker 17: the day, like maybe they are all the same. So,
- 1:57:47Speaker 17: you know, I'm one of these people that You know,
- 1:57:52Speaker 17: I like to say that there's only one version of Islam,
- 1:57:55Speaker 17: and that's fact, right? There's only one Quran. And if
- 1:57:58Speaker 17: these Muslims, these so-called moderate Muslims, are so committed to,
- 1:58:01Speaker 17: you know, having their own movement outside of the majority,
- 1:58:05Speaker 17: 2 billion Muslims who are chanting death to America and
- 1:58:09Speaker 17: praying five times a day to kill Jews and Christians.
- 1:58:11Speaker 17: And why don't they write a new Quran? How come
- 1:58:14Speaker 17: there hasn't been some....
- 1:58:16Speaker 2: Uh.
- 1:58:17Speaker 17: movement commissioned by all the shakes in the king's in
- 1:58:19Speaker 17: the royal family uh... to commission a a new koran
- 1:58:23Speaker 17: for the so-called you know on a preform right.
- 1:58:26Speaker 2: And then that's a big step no i know but
- 1:58:28Speaker 2: i want to know they can even come out i've
- 1:58:30Speaker 2: never seen a quote decent muslim come out and knock
- 1:58:35Speaker 2: Hamas or say bad things about the radicals that are
- 1:58:39Speaker 2: killing Jews and Christians around the world, they never say
- 1:58:42Speaker 2: a damn word. So, if we're getting about rewriting the Koran,
- 1:58:45Speaker 2: that would be great. You never see anybody from the
- 1:58:48Speaker 2: Muslim community coming out and saying, hey, they don't represent us.
- 1:58:52Speaker 2: In fact... Some of them, like Mamdani, they celebrate them.
- 1:58:55Speaker 2: I mean, look, you did a great job. You were
- 1:58:57Speaker 2: in Vegas together telling everybody about that meeting between the Satmars,
- 1:59:02Speaker 2: who are terrible people, title-bound no good, Indig is a
- 1:59:06Speaker 2: real low-life. They met with President Trump. In the last
- 1:59:09Speaker 2: couple of days, in Sukkot, around New York City, Laura Loomer,
- 1:59:13Speaker 2: the Chabad, the Lubavitcher, the Satmars, all that Mamdani. They
- 1:59:18Speaker 2: gave Mamdani a mezuzah. And I actually put on Twitter,
- 1:59:22Speaker 2: I wonder if his skank Jew-hating wife got a mezuzah, too.
- 1:59:26Speaker 2: What the hell are these Jews doing?
- 1:59:30Speaker 17: Well, they're kapos. They're selling out our people, and they
- 1:59:34Speaker 17: should know better. And look, I don't know if it's because,
- 1:59:37Speaker 17: you know, the saltmars.
- 1:59:39Speaker 17: They want to just collect a bunch of, you know,
- 1:59:41Speaker 17: free money. Maybe they want to get some more welfare.
- 1:59:44Speaker 17: I have no idea. I don't know what it is
- 1:59:46Speaker 17: that they want. You know, maybe they like Mamdami because
- 1:59:48Speaker 17: he's a he's an open communist and he wants to,
- 1:59:51Speaker 17: you know, he wants to increase benefits for illegal aliens
- 1:59:55Speaker 17: and give out a bunch of you know, free, air
- 1:59:58Speaker 17: quote free, because nothing in this world is free, as
- 2:00:01Speaker 17: we know. I don't know. I don't know if it's
- 2:00:03Speaker 17: because Mamdami, you know, he supports policies and he got
- 2:00:06Speaker 17: elected to office because people who want to gain the
- 2:00:09Speaker 17: system voted for him. Maybe that's appealing to people in
- 2:00:12Speaker 17: the South Mark community.
- 2:00:13Speaker 20: I don't know.
- 2:00:14Speaker 14: Right.
- 2:00:14Speaker 17: But but I mean, there there is a lot of
- 2:00:17Speaker 17: fraud in the community. And maybe that's maybe that's why
- 2:00:19Speaker 17: he appeals to them. I don't know. I really honestly
- 2:00:22Speaker 17: cannot cannot come to understand, Sid, why religious Jews would
- 2:00:29Speaker 17: want to support a jihadist Muslim.
- 2:00:31Speaker 2: I don't get it. It's gross. Tell me too, Laura,
- 2:00:34Speaker 2: you tweeted this too. You got to follow this lady.
- 2:00:36Speaker 2: Trust me, you'll love it. At Laura Loomer. You put
- 2:00:38Speaker 2: this out there yesterday too. Muslim U.S. Department of Energy.
- 2:00:43Speaker 2: There was an employee who was just arrested yesterday for
- 2:00:48Speaker 2: trying to provide material support to Iran and And the
- 2:00:53Speaker 2: Houthis just really, really bringing back that point, driving home
- 2:00:57Speaker 2: your point about Muslims moments ago. What's this story all about?
- 2:01:01Speaker 17: Yeah, so yesterday in Washington, there was a Muslim employee
- 2:01:06Speaker 17: at the U.S. Department of Energy. I actually posted it.
- 2:01:10Speaker 17: It's on my ex account. It's not getting anywhere near
- 2:01:13Speaker 17: the attention it deserves. His name is Ashton.
- 2:01:16Speaker 2: It is now.
- 2:01:17Speaker 17: Al-Aboody. A Muslim employee at the U.S. Department of Energy
- 2:01:20Speaker 17: was arrested yesterday and charged with attempting to provide material
- 2:01:24Speaker 17: support and resources to the Houthis and Iran. And, you know,
- 2:01:29Speaker 17: he had purchased explosive materials. He had actually used his
- 2:01:33Speaker 17: badge to purchase these materials and traveled abroad to Iran
- 2:01:39Speaker 17: and met with Iranian officials. And so he Again, this
- 2:01:44Speaker 17: is why I'm always saying, you know, there should not
- 2:01:46Speaker 17: be Muslims allowed to hold elected office or work in
- 2:01:49Speaker 17: the federal government. And what comes with allowing for these
- 2:01:53Speaker 17: people to get, you know, special access or security clearances,
- 2:01:57Speaker 17: whether they're mayors or whether they're working at states. the
- 2:02:00Speaker 17: Department of War, whether they're working at the Department of Energy,
- 2:02:04Speaker 17: Mamdani isn't just any type of Muslim, right? He is
- 2:02:07Speaker 17: a 12-year Shia Muslim. It's the same type of Muslim
- 2:02:11Speaker 17: that the Ayatollahs are in Iran. So whether it's Mamdani
- 2:02:15Speaker 17: or this Department of Energy employee or the hijacker on
- 2:02:19Speaker 17: this fly Dubai plane, right? at the end of the day,
- 2:02:23Speaker 17: they all share the same ideology. It's the same ideology, Sid,
- 2:02:27Speaker 17: and we need to be honest about it. We're not
- 2:02:29Speaker 17: going to be able to address this threat and protect
- 2:02:33Speaker 17: our country from the threat of Islamic terrorism if we
- 2:02:36Speaker 17: don't actually name the enemy. We have to name the enemy.
- 2:02:40Speaker 17: We have to be honest about what the enemy is.
- 2:02:41Speaker 17: It's not radical Islam. No, it's Islam, okay?
- 2:02:45Speaker 11: It's Islam.
- 2:02:46Speaker 20: It's Islam.
- 2:02:48Speaker 2: It is a completely different set of rules. I can't
- 2:02:50Speaker 2: argue with you. I tend to agree more with you.
- 2:02:51Speaker 2: People get upset. They go, you got it. You got
- 2:02:53Speaker 2: to make sure you say extreme.
- 2:02:55Speaker 17: Extreme people. They're the most protected people in the world.
- 2:02:58Speaker 17: I can't believe like everybody's giving the UAE a pass
- 2:03:01Speaker 17: right now for not releasing the name of the pilot.
- 2:03:04Speaker 17: Why are they not releasing the name of the pilot?
- 2:03:06Speaker 14: Right.
- 2:03:07Speaker 17: How come this story about the Department of Energy employee
- 2:03:09Speaker 17: isn't all over the news? How come there's not more
- 2:03:11Speaker 17: consequences for Mamdani's wife? I mean, these truly are the
- 2:03:16Speaker 17: most protected people in America. People like to talk about
- 2:03:19Speaker 17: white privilege. I've never seen anything, any privilege more severe
- 2:03:23Speaker 17: than Muslim privilege. If you're a Muslim in this country,
- 2:03:26Speaker 17: you get you get treated with white gloves. The media
- 2:03:29Speaker 17: doesn't want to say Islam. They don't want to say Muslim.
- 2:03:32Speaker 17: They'll go through mental gymnastics and say, you know, a
- 2:03:36Speaker 17: bunch of words out. Oh, we don't know what the
- 2:03:37Speaker 17: motive is. It could be mental illness. We're going to
- 2:03:40Speaker 17: have to wait like the New York Times this week.
- 2:03:43Speaker 17: We're going to have to wait for the UAE to
- 2:03:45Speaker 17: let us know if this guy had a mental health evaluation.
- 2:03:48Speaker 17: Maybe he was struggling with suicide and maybe he was
- 2:03:50Speaker 17: the victim. I mean, really, do we really need to
- 2:03:53Speaker 17: have a conversation when a Muslim is involved to understand
- 2:03:55Speaker 17: what the motive is?
- 2:03:57Speaker 2: Not at this point. I'm sorry. I'm with you. No.
- 2:03:59Speaker 17: 25 years later, 25 years later, since we just got
- 2:04:03Speaker 17: done recognizing the 25 year anniversary of 9-11 and these
- 2:04:06Speaker 17: Muslims are still hijacking airplanes. Do we really need to
- 2:04:08Speaker 17: have a conversation about the motive? Because I'll tell you
- 2:04:11Speaker 17: what the motive is.
- 2:04:12Speaker 2: God bless you. Thank God for you. I mean, there's
- 2:04:14Speaker 2: one more, you know, you and I were also both
- 2:04:17Speaker 2: taken to task, not just for denouncing that meeting between
- 2:04:20Speaker 2: the Satmars and Trump. But then we were both very
- 2:04:22Speaker 2: rough on Trump when he met with Mom Donnie at
- 2:04:24Speaker 2: Gracie Mansion. The meeting was bad enough, but the heaping
- 2:04:28Speaker 2: of compliments really pissed you and I off. So, you know,
- 2:04:32Speaker 2: I walk around every day wondering if President Trump is
- 2:04:34Speaker 2: mad at me. Now, you're going to see the president
- 2:04:36Speaker 2: in all likelihood today. And he loves you. He loves
- 2:04:38Speaker 2: you like he loves me. Do you think he's aware
- 2:04:41Speaker 2: of some of the criticisms, minor criticisms? We still love him.
- 2:04:45Speaker 2: But minor criticisms that you and I have sent his way.
- 2:04:48Speaker 2: And do you think he cares?
- 2:04:51Speaker 17: Look, I mean, look, the president of the United States
- 2:04:54Speaker 17: at the end of the day, right, he's in a
- 2:04:55Speaker 17: different position than we're in. He has to deal with
- 2:04:58Speaker 17: world leaders. He has to deal with global incidents. He
- 2:05:01Speaker 17: has to deal with ending wars and, you know, managing
- 2:05:05Speaker 17: managing these complex issues and geopolitical matters. I personally would
- 2:05:10Speaker 17: not be meeting with all of these meeting with and
- 2:05:13Speaker 17: praising all of these Islamic sheikhs and Erdogan and the
- 2:05:15Speaker 17: Qataris and the Saudis. But I'm also not the president
- 2:05:19Speaker 17: of the United States. I'm sure the president understands, right,
- 2:05:22Speaker 17: deep down that Islam is a death call. I mean,
- 2:05:24Speaker 17: this is the guy who campaigned in 2015 and 2016
- 2:05:28Speaker 17: saying we needed a Muslim ban. He campaigned on a
- 2:05:30Speaker 17: Muslim ban and he campaigned on the fact that Islam
- 2:05:33Speaker 17: hates us. He's on video saying this. And so at
- 2:05:37Speaker 17: the end of the day, I'm sure that he understands
- 2:05:40Speaker 17: how dangerous this ideology is. And... upset or not at
- 2:05:45Speaker 17: the criticisms there. It's not like we're attacking him out
- 2:05:49Speaker 17: of spite. Nobody's attacking the president in a malicious way
- 2:05:53Speaker 17: like Marjorie Trader Green or Tucker Carlson and others are where,
- 2:05:57Speaker 17: you know, they're calling for the 25th Amendment and they're
- 2:06:00Speaker 17: accusing him of being a pedophile and saying all these
- 2:06:02Speaker 17: horrible things. We're just simply pointing out that we don't
- 2:06:06Speaker 17: want to see jihadis and communists in the White House.
- 2:06:09Speaker 20: That's it.
- 2:06:10Speaker 17: I don't really think that's an attack. I think that
- 2:06:12Speaker 17: we are, you know, holding the president to the standard
- 2:06:15Speaker 17: of what, you know, he promised us when he originally campaigned,
- 2:06:18Speaker 17: which is a Muslim ban. I mean, we were told
- 2:06:21Speaker 17: that we were going to get a Muslim ban and
- 2:06:23Speaker 17: hopefully we, you know, we start to see more of
- 2:06:25Speaker 17: this and hopefully we start to see more of a
- 2:06:28Speaker 17: crackdown on the Islamic presence in our country because we've
- 2:06:32Speaker 17: only had 3 million deportations. And if we're not going
- 2:06:35Speaker 17: to be the 65 million illegal aliens living in our country,
- 2:06:41Speaker 17: and we're not going to be able to get all
- 2:06:42Speaker 17: these Hispanic illegals out of our country, then I prefer
- 2:06:45Speaker 17: that they prioritize with the most dangerous. And it is
- 2:06:48Speaker 17: undeniable that the most dangerous illegals and the most dangerous
- 2:06:52Speaker 17: immigrants in our country are those who come from Muslim countries.
- 2:06:55Speaker 2: Bottom line.
- 2:06:55Speaker 20: They've got to go.
- 2:06:55Speaker 11: That's it.
- 2:06:56Speaker 17: They've got to go back to where they came from.
- 2:06:57Speaker 2: That's it. They have to go. You're 100% right. Laura Loomer,
- 2:06:59Speaker 2: this is why I think you're amazing. I do. Follow
- 2:07:02Speaker 2: her on Twitter, at Laura Loomer. Laura's got a set
- 2:07:05Speaker 2: of balls. She's a woman, of course, but she's got
- 2:07:07Speaker 2: a set of balls. Laura, this was another great appearance.
- 2:07:10Speaker 2: It really was. And I will watch you on Twitter
- 2:07:13Speaker 2: all day long and talk to you later. Great job, Willie.
- 2:07:15Speaker 2: Thank you so much.
- 2:07:16Speaker 17: Thank you.
- 2:07:17Speaker 2: God bless you. You're great. Laura Loomer right there on
- 2:07:20Speaker 2: Sid and Friends in the morning. And she just tells
- 2:07:22Speaker 2: the truth. I know it's uncomfortable. I know some of
- 2:07:24Speaker 2: you are like, no, you can't. Yes, you can. Yes,
- 2:07:27Speaker 2: you can. Because when you start to listen to me, folks,
- 2:07:31Speaker 2: I'll make it very sweet for you. OK, when you
- 2:07:34Speaker 2: put sugar on top of duty, guess what? Once you
- 2:07:38Speaker 2: eat past the sugar, you're still going to have duty.
- 2:07:41Speaker 2: So this idea, we got to phrase it differently. Sid,
- 2:07:44Speaker 2: all you had to do was call him a terrorist sympathizer,
- 2:07:47Speaker 2: not a terrorist. No, no, I'm not doing it. Loyal
- 2:07:51Speaker 2: rumor is not doing it. The real patriots, the real Americans,
- 2:07:56Speaker 2: the real pro-Israel folks, we are not doing it. We're
- 2:07:59Speaker 2: sick of it. We're sick of it. Enough is enough.
- 2:08:04Speaker 2: We'll take a short break. More after this. Grotesque story
- 2:08:14Speaker 2: coming out of Cornell University where seven guys, at least allegedly, allegedly,
- 2:08:20Speaker 2: raped a young lady. And we're going to get all
- 2:08:23Speaker 2: those details on that. And Joseph Takapina is exactly right.
- 2:08:27Speaker 2: Nobody wants to see Letitia James outside of Kathy Hochul,
- 2:08:30Speaker 2: that dummy. Nobody wants to see Letitia James anywhere near
- 2:08:34Speaker 2: this case, but she's in. The AG is now the
- 2:08:36Speaker 2: special prosecutor. So we'll take a radical departure. I told
- 2:08:39Speaker 2: you earlier that on Amazon Prime right now, and you
- 2:08:42Speaker 2: all watch Amazon Prime, all of you, the number one
- 2:08:45Speaker 2: show by a mile away is a show that I'm in.
- 2:08:49Speaker 2: It's called Gravesend. It is season three. You've heard me
- 2:08:53Speaker 2: talking about it for a while now. William DeMaio has
- 2:08:56Speaker 2: been on this show many, many times. He's the creator, writer, director, producer,
- 2:09:00Speaker 2: and star. Does a great job. And what a cast
- 2:09:03Speaker 2: he's put together for this season three. And again, number
- 2:09:07Speaker 2: one by a mile on Amazon Prime. So we'll take
- 2:09:10Speaker 2: a break, come back, and live in studio, the man himself,
- 2:09:14Speaker 2: Benny Z.
- 2:09:15Speaker 12: Sid and Friends in the Morning on the Red Apple
- 2:09:19Speaker 12: Podcast Network.
- 2:09:21Speaker 2: And my friend William DeMeo. Back in studio, you guys
- 2:09:24Speaker 2: released Season 3. It'll be a week ago today. And
- 2:09:28Speaker 2: what a great week it's been, huh, Willie? Great week, right? Yeah,
- 2:09:31Speaker 2: my God, it's been very special.
- 2:09:34Speaker 26: Part 1 is out now, and I have to thank,
- 2:09:38Speaker 26: on the air, I want everyone to know all the
- 2:09:40Speaker 26: people that came up, that purchased and.
- 2:09:43Speaker 2: went out for us and were waiting and did it.
- 2:09:46Speaker 26: And it just, it's amazing to have such loyal fans
- 2:09:50Speaker 26: who are, who I'm very grateful to each and every.
- 2:09:52Speaker 2: One of you guys. And also the, not just the fans,
- 2:09:55Speaker 2: but also the folks that helped you out. And in fact,
- 2:09:57Speaker 2: right now, you're going to love this listening in Israel.
- 2:10:01Speaker 2: You just texted me in Israel right now. Our dear friend, Dr.
- 2:10:04Speaker 2: John Batash.
- 2:10:05Speaker 26: Yeah, John Batash. He's always, yeah, that's what you want.
- 2:10:07Speaker 26: You need a good doctor. John Batash is the guy.
- 2:10:10Speaker 26: He's always, and he always answers the phone.
- 2:10:11Speaker 2: He's always there. Any question you have, we love you, John. Yeah,
- 2:10:14Speaker 2: we do. Enjoy your time there, buddy. I've become very
- 2:10:16Speaker 2: close with John because of you. I met him on
- 2:10:18Speaker 2: the set, actually, when I shot those scenes with you
- 2:10:20Speaker 2: and Gordio and Shaq and all those guys. Yeah, at
- 2:10:22Speaker 2: the garage clothing store that day. No, no, that was
- 2:10:24Speaker 2: in Queens at the catering hall. The garage store, was
- 2:10:28Speaker 2: he there that day, too? I think he came that day. Yeah,
- 2:10:30Speaker 2: he came to see. That was me, you, and Vic.
- 2:10:32Speaker 2: That was a great scene.
- 2:10:33Speaker 26: He told me he was your biggest fan, and that's
- 2:10:35Speaker 26: why I put it together.
- 2:10:37Speaker 2: He's a good man. Great guy. We went to Israel together, actually,
- 2:10:39Speaker 2: not that long ago. So I've seen a few of
- 2:10:42Speaker 2: the episodes. How you did it was, and you told
- 2:10:45Speaker 2: us this earlier, it's 12 episodes. You release six now.
- 2:10:48Speaker 2: You're going to release six later. And three of them,
- 2:10:51Speaker 2: just so you know, folks, episodes two, four, and five
- 2:10:54Speaker 2: with Tony Darrow, Shaquille O'Neal. You, all these great actors.
- 2:10:58Speaker 2: And it is an unbelievable cast that you put together, William. Congratulations.
- 2:11:03Speaker 2: Thank you. Yeah, we have a great cast.
- 2:11:06Speaker 26: And all the new people that came aboard for season three,
- 2:11:09Speaker 26: you know, has been, I mean, I'm blessed to have
- 2:11:12Speaker 26: such great people.
- 2:11:14Speaker 2: Really unbelievable new people. Shaquille O'Neal and Talia Shire. And
- 2:11:17Speaker 2: I'm probably leaving out like 10 other names. Yeah, well,
- 2:11:19Speaker 2: Talia Shire, like you said, Shaq. main, all the, the rapper, uh,
- 2:11:24Speaker 2: James Harrison, James Harrison from the Steelers. You know, I'm
- 2:11:28Speaker 2: a big Steeler fan. He's great. Uh, and then Vince Cortola,
- 2:11:32Speaker 2: Vince Cortola.
- 2:11:33Speaker 11: Yes.
- 2:11:34Speaker 2: And, uh, of course, Dominic Genesee. I mean, come on.
- 2:11:37Speaker 26: I mean, he's Uncle Junior and he's, uh, he was
- 2:11:40Speaker 26: in the Godfather, Johnny Ola.
- 2:11:42Speaker 2: He's, he's amazing. So did you ever think when you're
- 2:11:44Speaker 2: watching the Sopranos and you're in that show, I know
- 2:11:46Speaker 2: a couple of times, but watching that amazing masterpiece by
- 2:11:49Speaker 2: David Chase that you would be the next generation of
- 2:11:51Speaker 2: David Chase and all those actors in and around you,
- 2:11:54Speaker 2: except for the guys that died, unfortunately, old friends of mine,
- 2:11:57Speaker 2: Jimmy Gandolfini, friend of mine, Tony Sirico, great friend of mine.
- 2:12:00Speaker 2: That a lot of those actors would be in your show.
- 2:12:02Speaker 2: I know it's, it's kind of surreal.
- 2:12:04Speaker 26: I mean, you know, it's just my faith in God
- 2:12:07Speaker 26: and it just came together.
- 2:12:08Speaker 17: Yeah.
- 2:12:09Speaker 26: I mean, I learned a lot being on the Sopranos
- 2:12:11Speaker 26: and to just be, and I watched how the fans
- 2:12:14Speaker 26: were so loyal to the Soprano cast.
- 2:12:17Speaker 2: It was crazy.
- 2:12:17Speaker 26: It'd be like the, I watched, I went to a
- 2:12:19Speaker 26: couple events. These guys like Gandolfini and Sirico and Vince
- 2:12:23Speaker 26: Cortola and Vincent Pastore, they were all.
- 2:12:26Speaker 2: Like rock stars. Yeah, they were. He died not that
- 2:12:28Speaker 2: long ago, Vincent. And Michael Imperioli, who I disagree with
- 2:12:33Speaker 2: on a huge level politically. In fact, I want to
- 2:12:36Speaker 2: punch Michael across the face a lot of times, but
- 2:12:38Speaker 2: I still love him. Same thing with Stephen Van Zandt,
- 2:12:41Speaker 2: who played Silvio Dante on The Sopranos. He works with
- 2:12:43Speaker 2: Bruce Springsteen. And anybody who works with Bruce Springsteen has
- 2:12:46Speaker 2: to be a little on the crazy side. But you
- 2:12:49Speaker 2: don't really deal with that on your show. I made
- 2:12:50Speaker 2: the point to Mark Levin.
- 2:12:51Speaker 11: It's funny.
- 2:12:52Speaker 2: Levin had me on about a year ago now, but
- 2:12:55Speaker 2: we found the audio today. And he said, what is
- 2:12:57Speaker 2: this Netflix show you're on? I go, no, it's not Netflix.
- 2:13:00Speaker 2: It's Amazon Prime. I go, it's a mob series centered
- 2:13:03Speaker 2: around 1985 Brooklyn. Oh, my God, that sounds amazing. I said,
- 2:13:06Speaker 2: let me tell you this, Mark, okay? I know the
- 2:13:08Speaker 2: big ones, Meryl Streep, all these big stars, you know.
- 2:13:11Speaker 2: They're libs. All right, they're liberals. But not every actor
- 2:13:15Speaker 2: in every show is a liberal. In fact, I've got
- 2:13:18Speaker 2: experience with William DeMayo in Brooklyn, Danny Yeh in Los Angeles.
- 2:13:22Speaker 2: A lot of those guys, believe it or not, like Trump,
- 2:13:25Speaker 2: they wouldn't admit it in public because they're scared to death,
- 2:13:28Speaker 2: maybe even including you. But the idea that every actor
- 2:13:31Speaker 2: is a liberal is just not true, is it?
- 2:13:34Speaker 26: Well, you know, I don't want to get into politics,
- 2:13:36Speaker 26: but it's definitely not true. And I always think that,
- 2:13:40Speaker 26: I always say, like Michael Jordan said, Democrats and Republicans
- 2:13:44Speaker 26: buy sneakers, so... I want to reach all different people.
- 2:13:49Speaker 26: And I've got to tell you about Michael Imperioli, by
- 2:13:51Speaker 26: the way. He's a great guy. Do you ever meet him?
- 2:13:53Speaker 26: A million times. Michael Imperioli is.
- 2:13:56Speaker 2: He's a very nice guy. Great guy. Except when he talks.
- 2:13:59Speaker 26: Well, I don't listen to that stuff, so I don't know.
- 2:14:02Speaker 26: I don't really pay attention. Believe it or not, I
- 2:14:04Speaker 26: don't even know what's going on.
- 2:14:05Speaker 2: I know you don't. I believe that. But you know,
- 2:14:07Speaker 2: on the whole cast, one of my favorites, because he's
- 2:14:09Speaker 2: at every Trump rally with me, every one is Tuxedo.
- 2:14:13Speaker 2: Sitting front row and center.
- 2:14:17Speaker 26: Talk about that. Talk about that relationship. Let's think about this.
- 2:14:20Speaker 26: Chuck Zito has.
- 2:14:21Speaker 2: Donald Trump in his documentary. Correct.
- 2:14:24Speaker 26: Donald Trump did a interview with Chuck Zito in his documentary.
- 2:14:28Speaker 2: I mean, how crazy is that?
- 2:14:30Speaker 26: I mean, Chuck's another legend, by the way, and having
- 2:14:33Speaker 26: him in the cast and He's a dear friend.
- 2:14:35Speaker 2: He's a great guy.
- 2:14:36Speaker 26: And I got to tell you, he gave me a
- 2:14:37Speaker 26: nice gift the other day. He gave me the goddess,
- 2:14:41Speaker 26: which goes on the hood of my Cadillac. And it
- 2:14:44Speaker 26: was like, what a great gift.
- 2:14:45Speaker 2: Yeah, buddy. That is a great gift. Yeah, yeah. I
- 2:14:47Speaker 2: love him. He's a great guy.
- 2:14:49Speaker 26: When we had our little parties. He's such a great guy.
- 2:14:52Speaker 26: And it was Tony Darrell's birthday yesterday. How old is
- 2:14:55Speaker 26: Tony Darrell?
- 2:14:57Speaker 20: 86.
- 2:14:57Speaker 11: 86.
- 2:14:58Speaker 2: Tony Darrell, happy birthday, brother. Happy birthday. And what a
- 2:15:00Speaker 2: terrific guy, too. He texts me every now and then.
- 2:15:02Speaker 2: He's a great guy. And you know, I... And Bull Deedle, right?
- 2:15:06Speaker 2: We got Bull Deedle. He's your buddy. Bull's great in
- 2:15:08Speaker 2: the show. Bull's excellent in the show, too.
- 2:15:09Speaker 20: Excellent.
- 2:15:09Speaker 2: He's on the show. Great people. He's on the show
- 2:15:11Speaker 2: every Tuesday. These guys have a very close relationship with
- 2:15:14Speaker 2: my son, Gabriel. I've only got one son and one daughter.
- 2:15:17Speaker 2: And we are very, very close. And we do a
- 2:15:18Speaker 2: lot of stuff together. One of the things I love
- 2:15:20Speaker 2: about your show is your son now has become a
- 2:15:24Speaker 2: big star on the show. He's season three. He is
- 2:15:27Speaker 2: front row and center. I love to see dads and
- 2:15:29Speaker 2: kids working together. I love your relationship with your son.
- 2:15:32Speaker 2: You guys are so close. How proud are you when
- 2:15:35Speaker 2: you watch your son on the big screen doing the
- 2:15:37Speaker 2: things that he's doing?
- 2:15:38Speaker 26: I'm extremely proud of him because I've been getting such
- 2:15:41Speaker 26: great feedback from him and his, you know, the young crew,
- 2:15:44Speaker 26: you know, you know him and The guy that plays
- 2:15:47Speaker 26: Chaz Palminteri's son, Johnny Oliva, they're both excellent. And Armand Medeo,
- 2:15:52Speaker 26: the younger generation, these kids, they're doing great. And Gabriela Palminteri,
- 2:15:57Speaker 26: Chaz's daughter, she's excellent. So, you know, having my son,
- 2:16:01Speaker 26: you know, watching him and being with him on set
- 2:16:04Speaker 26: is amazing. It hasn't been easy to do this. It's
- 2:16:06Speaker 26: been a very difficult thing to get an independent show out.
- 2:16:11Speaker 2: And thank God, the fans and.
- 2:16:13Speaker 26: The supporters and the restaurants and the people and the
- 2:16:17Speaker 26: catering and people that help us. And every one of them,
- 2:16:20Speaker 26: I cannot from the bottom of my heart thank them,
- 2:16:22Speaker 26: our investors, everyone that supports us. And you, anytime I
- 2:16:26Speaker 26: want to come out and speak, you always take me, buddy.
- 2:16:29Speaker 26: Ever since the first day.

- 2:16:52Speaker 2: He's down there. Can you come one day, buddy? I mean,
- 2:16:55Speaker 2: I actually moved back to New York from Florida. I
- 2:16:57Speaker 2: was the only moron to do that. And now I

- 2:18:00Speaker 2: the way we grew up, it can never change.
- 2:18:02Speaker 10: No.
- 2:18:02Speaker 26: The way we grew up, I wouldn't change it. I
- 2:18:04Speaker 26: always say you could put me in a mansion somewhere.
- 2:18:07Speaker 26: In the suburbs, like in a huge house. I would
